Cannabis application process ‘a war’ in SLO County, industry reps say

W

ith just a single cannabis business permitted and only six given temporary state licenses to operate aboveboard as of June 1, industry members and advocates blasted San Luis Obispo County at a Board of Supervisors meeting for having a “broken” permitting process that feels like a “war” between applicants and county staff.

County planning staff delivered a quarterly update on cannabis to the supervisors on June 19, describing a backlog of cannabis applications that’s growing quickly.

“We are receiving complaints about the time it is taking to process applications, schedule meetings, and respond to inquires,” a staff report read. “The department may consider assigning more staff to cannabis cases.”

The county’s received 34 cannabis land-use permit applications thus far and is expecting another 20 within the next month. One permit has been issued—for delivery service West Coast Organix—while the others are on “information hold” because staff asked those applicants to provide additional information about their projects.

Several cannabis growers, entrepreneurs, and their representatives expressed frustrations about the county’s process during public comment, saying applicants are receiving “unprecedented” scrutiny by officials on their applications.

Jamie Jones and Lisa Bugrova, of Kirk Consulting, a North County-based land-use firm, said the county is asking for onerous studies and putting up other roadblocks that are inconsistent with what’s asked of other industries.

“For cannabis, every project has received a request for a full biological resources analysis— with no valid reasoning provided,” Bugrova said.

“This level of scrutiny is unprecedented and is solely based on the fact that the property owner

“We’re on the front line,” Jones added. “Sometimes it feels like a war. ... There’s not a lot of trust coming from our operators in the county process. It’s the honest truth. I hate to say that because we’ve worked with county staff for years, but we’ve never had this sort of the reception to our applicants. They are guilty before they’ve even submitted an application.”

Cannabis growers also complained about the substance of the county’s ordinance. For instance, the ordinance requires BOTTLENECK Cannabis industry members applying for permits with SLO County complained of “unprecedented” scrutiny from officials at a property zoned “rural Board of Supervisors hearing June 19. lands” to be at least 50 acres to be eligible to County supervisors made a few tweaks to the cultivate cannabis.

“It’s difficult to find land that’s 50 acres,” Third District Supervisor Adam Hill voiced Azevedo said. “I think it’s an undue hardship his own frustration with the county’s regulatory for those of us who have invested in this and framework for the new industry. thought we were doing everything right by “It seems like we’ve given everything we registering to just be shot down by some of these possibly can for black market people to continue regulations.” and everything we can to punish people who are Roughly 160 cultivators who registered with trying to legitimately be regulated,” Hill said. the county in 2016 and 2017 are allowed to “We will kill a legal industry that the voters apply for land-use permits.

Carbajal pushes bill to end family separation

The Trump Administration’s policy of separating undocumented immigrant children from their parents sparked a wave of planned protests and rebukes by U.S. lawmakers, including those on the Central Coast.

U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-Santa Barbara) told New Times that his office was flooded with more than 2,000 phone call, emails, and other communications expressing outrage and concern over the policy.

“There is a significant bipartisan outcry saying that this is not representative of our American values,” Carbajal told New Times. “This is not who we are. We are going backwards on civil rights and human rights.”

In May U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the policy was part of the government’s new “zero tolerance” border policy.

Under that policy, adults entering the country illegally were charged with a crime and referred to a federal court, while their children were sent to the Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of Refugee Resettlement.

The Department of Homeland Security reported that as many as 2,000 children

were separated from their parents at the U.S. border. Photos from the government’s child detention centers showed those children sleeping on mats in chain-link enclosures, and audio from of one of the detention centers released by the nonprofit ProPublica featured children crying for their parents.

“It’s appalling,” said Carbajal, who immigrated to America from Mexico with his own parents when he was a child. “This is not the America we strive to be.”

On June 19, Carbajal and 190 other House Democrats introduced the Keep Families Together Act. The proposed legislation, introduced as a companion to a similar bill in the Senate, would prohibit the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from separating parents from their children except in “extraordinary” circumstances. Carbajal said he hoped that it would become a bipartisan effort.

Trump, Sessions, and DHS Secretary Kristjen Nielsen all previously defended the policy, claiming that it was the result of legal loopholes in the country immigration laws that could only be addressed by Congress. Carbjal, like other lawmakers pushed back on those assertions, NEWS continued page 7

stating that the president could end the child separation policy with “one phone call.”

On June 20, President Trump reversed the policy by signing an executive order.

“We’ve want to keep families together; it’s very important,” he said at a press conference shortly before singing the order.

Carbajal said there are questions about the how the policy was carried out and the treatment of children already separated from their parents.

“There are still parts of this bill that are germane and important,” he said.

According to Women’s March SLO, multiple protests scheduled across SLO County will continue as planned, despite Trump’s reversal of policy.

Fracking ban heads to November ballot

The San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors managed to maneuver into compromise during a tense June 19 discussion that could have left a routine decision up to the courts.

The debate over just how to package the citizens’ initiative to ban fracking and oil expansion in SLO County for the November ballot had supervisors in a 2-2 stalemate. Potential tiebreaker 1st District Supervisor John Peschong recused himself due to his political consulting firm’s work with the oil industry.

“Do we really want to get to a point where a court is telling us what to do? First of all, that makes us look bad,” 2nd District Supervisor Bruce Gibson told his colleagues on the dais. “In the spirit of compromise: I do not want the embarrassment of a court telling us what to be.”

At issue was whether to print the full text of the initiative in the informational election pamphlet mailed out to voters, which could have cost the county an additional $100,000, and whether to ask SLO County Auditor-Controller Jim Erb to prepare a fiscal impact statement.

Supervisors Lynn Compton (4th District) and Debbie Arnold (5th District) pushed for both, as many initiative opponents had asked for during public comment, while Gibson and 3rd District Supervisor Adam Hill initially opposed both, siding with the initiative’s backers.

Arnold and Compton argued for including more information in the ballot pamphlet rather than less.

“People at home open this ballot material, and without some transparency, it’s difficult to have the information you need to make important decisions,” Arnold said. “It’s a service to the voters to help them make informed decisions.”

Hill called the argument a false one, referring to the civility code supervisors had voted to pass earlier in the meeting and insinuating that Compton and Arnold were unable to budge from their positions.

“This is probably why civility is not going to change anything. Transparency should not be misused,” he said. “It’s misleading to tell people that this is a transparency issue. … They’re not going to concede anything until we go to court.

Let’s go to court.”

But Gibson and Compton managed to work out a deal. Drop the full text of the initiative and include the fiscal impact statement on the accompanying ballot information materials. The board passed the compromise 4-0.

VIEWER DISCRETION

Paso police officer under investigation

A Paso Robles police sergeant is under investigation after allegations that he committed a “serious criminal act” surfaced last month.

Paso Police Chief Ty Lewis confirmed that the officer, identified as Sgt. Chris McGuire, has been on paid leave since May 9 while the SLO Sheriff’s Office conducts an investigation into the unspecified allegations.

“Regretfully, one of our own has been accused of tarnishing our badge,” Lewis said in a written response to questions from New Times.

Lewis said his department is fully cooperating with the Sheriff’s Office, and had notified the SLO County District Attorney’s Office of the allegations, but he declined to say what the details of the allegations were.

“I’m sorry I cannot be more specific on the nature or source of the allegations,” he said. “The Sheriff’s department is in the middle of an investigation, and I cannot release more information at this time.”

A spokesperson for the Sheriff’s Office confirmed there was an active investigation but also declined to specify the nature of the allegations against McGuire. SLO County Assistant District Attorney Eric Doborth said that the DA’s office was aware that McGuire had been placed on leave, but said no case has been referred to the office.

McGuire was hired by the Paso PD in 2012. Prior to joining the department, McGuire worked for the Porterville Police Department. On Oct. 20, 2009, McGuire shot and killed Joe Edwin Bowles, 25, of Porterville, after a foot chase and physical confrontation. McGuire returned to duty in November 2009 after a departmental review determined that the shooting was within the Porterville PD’s guidelines related to the use of deadly force.

According to the California Department of Justice’s most recent data, the Paso Robles police department fielded six civilian complaints in 2016, but none of the complaints filed against the department alleged criminal conduct.

Only two of those complaints were sustained, according to the DOJ’s records. Complaint data for 2017 was not available.

In his statement to New Times, Lewis reassured Paso Robles residents that his department was committed to protecting them.

“I want every community member to know that despite the serious allegations against this particular employee, the men and women of the PRPD are dedicated and ethical public servants,” he said.

Cities enticed back to animal shelter project

Promising to shave $1 million off the cost of a new animal shelter, San Luis Obispo County appears to have convinced two estranged city partners to rejoin the regional project.

On June 19, SLO County supervisors approved an amendment to the original animal shelter agreement with all seven local cities aimed at luring Paso Robles and Atascadero back into the $13.2 million effort.

In November 2017, both cities withdrew to pursue their own North County animal shelter with a Petaluma-based nonprofit, citing cost savings.

Under the terms of the amendment, the

county promises to shoulder an extra $1 million in construction costs and reduce the overall number of animal intakes at the shelter by an average of 5 percent per year over five years. Officials plan to accomplish this by using “targeted education campaigns” and proactive “catch and release” spay/neuter programs, among other methods.

The amendment also outlines a “shared governance” model for the shelter— addressing another sore spot for city leaders, who felt closed off from the county’s decision-making process.

“The cities will function as partners, not customers,” a Paso staff report read.

The Paso Robles City Council planned to vote on the amendment on June 20 (after New Times’ press time) and it will go before the Atascadero City Council on July 10, according to Paso officials. The county’s five other city councils will also need to sign off on the amendment.

Paso Robles Mayor Steve Martin applauded the compromise as a moneysaving win for the cities.

“This is good news for all cities in San Luis Obispo County,” Martin said.

Sanitation District hires administrator

Ten months after its last full-time administrator left his post, the South SLO County Sanitation District’s board of directors voted to hire his replacement.

The three-member board voted unanimously June 14 to hire Jeremy Ghent as sanitation district administrator.

Ghent, who starts his new job July 2, is a licensed civil engineer and currently works as a wastewater operations manager for San Luis Obispo County.

According to his employment contract with the district, Ghent’s annual salary will be $150,000. His employment contract also contains language that allows the district to increase his salary by 2.5 percent following a satisfactory or better annual performance evaluation.

Ghent’s contract expires in July 2021.

The district’s last full-time administrator, Gerhardt Hubner, left his position in Aug. 3, 2017, after a little more than one year on the job. That tenure was marred by acrimonious disputes between Hubner and some residents and ratepayers, as well as sanitation district board member and Arroyo Grande Mayor Jim Hill, over his job performance and management decisions.

Hill expressed confidence in Ghent shortly after voting to hire him.

“I believe Mr. Ghent will be able to serve well and long the position of district administrator,” he said.

Between Hubner’s departure and Ghent’s hiring, Rick Sweet and Paul Karp were hired as technical consultants and functioned as interim administrators.

The road to hiring Ghent was not necessarily a smooth one. The board had to re-interview potential candidates after receiving a letter from the SLO County District Attorney’s Office warning them that the original closed session interviews, held April 7 at a hotel in SLO, violated the state’s open meetings laws.

The board re-interviewed the candidates at a May 4 closed session meeting, and settled on their top three candidates. The board interviewed and ranked those final three candidates in another closed session meeting on May 11.

Paso mulls new conference center

Paso Robles city leaders are teaming up to explore building what’s dreamed up as the largest conference center in SLO County, a proposed $26-million, 19,500 square-foot facility across the street from the Paso Robles fairgrounds.

The Paso Robles Event Center, Travel Paso, and the city of Paso Robles unveiled a draft feasibility study of the project on June 20, describing it as a public-private partnership to meet “a strong demand for a facility fostering mid-week bookings and non-peak season visitation.”

“The conference center fills a great regional need and creates a new asset for the community, fair attendees, and business,” Michael Bradley, CEO of the Paso Robles Event Center, which spearheaded the effort, said in a press release. “This project aligns with our strategic plan to be economically viable year-round.”

Tentative plans for the facility include a 15,000 square-foot ballroom—which would dwarf the current largest ballroom in the county, the 5,400 square-foot room in The Embassy Suites hotel in SLO, according to Paso staff—as well as meeting rooms, a boardroom, and a “prefunction” space.

Partners on the project envision the conference center as providing an economic injection into the city. The feasibility study estimates that conference attendees would account for 11,500 additional hotel room bookings per year, generating $7.35 million in taxes to the city over 30 years.

The parties say they are continuing to explore the viability of the project, splitting the costs. A final green light on it won’t come before the Paso City Council for another six months, officials said. Δ —Peter Johnson

SLO County Veterans Services has worked ‘relentlessly’ toward improvement, says department head

T

he old photos of SLO County’s Veterans Services Office (VSO) are grim. They show walls with large splotches of crumbling plaster and cardboard boxes carelessly stacked against counters.

“The condition of the office was very poor,” Veterans Services Officer Christopher Lopez told members of the SLO County Board of Supervisors June 11. “The carpet was torn and stained in several areas. There was only one working scanner, and our computers were outdated and working very slowly.”

That was two years ago, and how the office looked was the least of the department’s problems. Lopez, hired in 2016, took over a VSO whose reputation had been damaged after its last fulltime administrator left under a cloud of questions about the department’s moneyhandling practices. Since then, the office has transformed, both physically and operationally, improving its ability to get more SLO County veterans and their families the services and support they are entitled to.

“Our office now presents itself as a wellorganized and efficient department,” Lopez told the board during a presentation at its annual budget hearings.

Lopez, an Army veteran, was hired in February 2016 following the short tenure of interim Veterans Services Officer Paul Porter. The last full-time service officer, Dana Cummings, voluntarily resigned from the position in 2015, shortly after an audit by SLO County Auditor Controller Jim Erb raised questions about the department’s handling of cash donations.

A lawsuit Cummings later filed against the county stated that his resignation was the result of ongoing personality conflicts with former SLO County Administrative Officer Dan Buckshi.

Since Lopez took over, he said he and his staff worked to improve the look and operations of the office. In addition to addressing the poor state of the office itself, Lopez reorganized the department’s hierarchy, adding two supervisor positions to improve efficiency, staff

morale, and productivity.

The total number of claims filed by the office on behalf of local veterans or their families with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs increased from a low of 2,485 in fiscal year 2015-16 to an all-time high of 5,108 in the current fiscal year, according to data from the VSO. The same data showed that the amount of time those vets and their families had to wait between filing claims and getting their benefits also improved, dropping from an average of more than a year in FY 2013-14 to just four months in FY 2017-18. Lopez also said that the VSO filled a backlog of claims in FY 2016-17, resulting in a total of $8.4 million in monetary benefits to veterans and their families as well as another $6.2 million in the current fiscal year.

Lopez credited the improvement to his office staff, which he described as “relentlessly working toward continuous improvement.” At the budget hearing, SLO County 5th District Supervisor Debbie Arnold noted the department’s changes.

“The stats are showing improvement,” she said.

Lopez’s presentation included a video message to the board from local veteran William Cattaneo, who said he’d seen the difference in service levels at the office firsthand.

“I feel good coming here,” Cattaneo said. “The caring people help you with any difficulties you might have.”

This year, the VSO also hosted “The Wall that Heals,” a mobile replica of the Vietnam War memorial. The wall, which was installed at Madonna Inn’s meadow in April, drew more than 12,000 visitors, according to Lopez.

“Our office was truly honored to host such a powerful event,” he said.

The department plans to continue improving and expanding its services.

Recently it started working with veterans in the SLO County Jail, and will likely return to the board in the future to request an additional staff member to help expand other programs.

The improvements that Lopez said have taken place at the office not only rehabilitated the department’s reputation, but directly benefited those it serves.

“These changes have provided an opportunity to communicate and advocate for veterans and their dependents in a way that wasn’t possible before,” he said. ∆ Staff Writer Chris McGuinness can be reached at cmcguinness@newtimesslo.com.

Election contention Amid ballot disputes and a possible recount, Lynn Compton secures county supervisor race

N

either Supervisor Lynn Compton nor her challenger Jimmy Paulding was in the room on June 15 when San Luis Obispo County election workers processed and counted what was likely the decisive batch of ballots in the 4th District county supervisor race.

Instead, a small group of the candidates’ closest confidants huddled together in the windowless bullpen of the County Clerk’s Office, observing the wheels of democracy turn.

Tense, their eyes darted methodically between a computer monitor and the notepads in their laps. First, the monitor would show the image of a ballot that had been unreadable by the counting machine due to a voter error. Then, depending on how Clerk-Recorder Tommy Gong decided that ballot got handled, the campaign reps furiously jotted down comments, ballot numbers, and tallies.

The scene was the entire 4th District supervisor race in a nutshell: drama and high stakes. Razor-thin margins. Every vote matters.

“This is an extremely close race. There’s a lot riding on it,” said Tave Holland, legal counsel for the Paulding campaign, at one point during the action.

Going into June 15, Compton held an 81vote lead over Paulding, with 17,515 ballots counted and about 1,000 still outstanding.

By the end of the day, Compton would remain ahead by 62 votes—all but securing her re-election victory and a conservative majority on the Board of Supervisors.

As the campaign members strained their eyes and bit their nails in the Clerk’s Office, Gong and his team stoically maneuvered the room without regard for the partisan observers or their desired outcomes. Gong calmly directed the action, but he rarely had to speak. His office looked like a well-oiled machine churning since the June 5 primary election.

Both campaigns gushed about the quality of the clerk staff. James Sofranko, Paulding’s assistant campaign manager, described them as “incredible.” Compton’s members agreed.

“I’ve been here many times. They have a great staff—the most harmonious, pleasant people to be around,” said Laura Mordaunt, a rep for the Compton campaign.

But Compton has at least one bone to pick with Gong. Earlier that day, her attorneys filed a lawsuit demanding that he stop processing a group of 35 vote-by-mail ballots with non-matching signatures. On

Ultimate Discover the

vote-by-mail ballots—the overwhelming majority of ballots in this election—the Clerk’s Office is required to verify each signature for its authenticity. If a signature is either missing or doesn’t match what the voter has on record, it won’t count unless the voter fixes the problem.

Compton’s local attorney Stew Jenkins (also chair of the SLO chapter of the ACLU) and her not-so-local attorney Charles Bell Jr. (former counsel to the California Republican Party and attorney for 1st District County Supervisor John Peschong) argued that election code allows voters eight days to rectify non-matching signature issues after June 5, after which they must be thrown out along with unsigned ballots. Gong wanted to give voters more time—until the end of canvassing—to do so, arguing election law gave him that discretion.

After Jenkins and Bell Jr. failed to sway Gong with a formal letter, they filed the lawsuit in SLO County Superior Court on June 15.

“The rule is the rule,” said Andrea Seastrand, a Compton supporter and former 24th District U.S. Congresswoman who was in the Clerk’s Office on June 15.

“You either follow a rule or you don’t.”

“It’s a matter of voter responsibility. You have to have a cutoff,” Mordaunt added.

On June 18, Judge Barry LaBarbera issued a temporary restraining order against Gong counting those ballots.

After hearing formal arguments from county counsel and Compton’s attorneys on June 19, LaBarbera extended the temporary order another 24 hours, but ultimately ruled against Compton and lifted the order on June 20.

The batch of ballots wrapped up in litigation likely won’t matter in the end.

After a June 20 count, Compton was still ahead by 55 votes—9,183 to 9,128 votes— with only 46 ballots outstanding.

Gong said he was expecting to certify the election results on June 22.

On June 13, Paulding told New Times he would consider asking for a recount if the margin was close enough. Neither he nor Compton returned a request for comment, but Paulding published a post to his Facebook page on June 15.

“There are still votes to be counted,” Paulding wrote, “and I want to allow that process to happen.” ∆

mong Avila Beach’s hidden treasures is one that is as blue and calm as the ocean. The Central Coast Aquarium is housed in a deep blue building just off Avila Beach Drive.

Entering the two-story facility, you’re instantly greeted by an antique diving suit, children’s voices, and the sounds of water filtering in tanks.

The Central Coast Aquarium has educational programs for all ages, daily feedings, and on-hand volunteers and docents to show you around. Its newest additions are an executive director and a designated outdoor space.

The aquarium’s board of directors recently announced that Christine Johnson, a former Morro Bay City Council member and former director of development and communications at Stand Strong, would be its new executive director.

One of her goals is for the facility to continue with its mission to educate all visitors about marine life.

“I really do want to start highlighting the opportunities for refreshing some of the exhibits in the exhibit hall. I think it has been about 10 years that the aquarium has been in this facility, and I think it’s time to find some new ways to talk about sea life here,” Johnson said.

In the exhibit hall, “touch tanks” allow visitors to touch swell sharks, and there are plenty of exhibits filled with jellyfish and flat fish, to name a few. Facility aquarist Emily Sampson is in charge of tank maintenance, food prepping, animal welfare, and volunteer training. She knows the names of all of the animals in the aquarium, their age, what they ate, and even their personalities.

Sampson said their biggest attraction at the moment is their swell sharks. They have adults, teens, and even eggs. The eggs are called mermaid purses, residing on kelp that conveniently camouflage them.

She said that while the aquarium is small—the average visit takes about 35 minutes—every person who works or volunteers there puts the detail and care into the facility.

“If people just take the time to kind of ask questions and explore, you’ll get a lot more out of it. We’re nowhere near

the scale of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, but hopefully you’ll get more of a one-onone experience with our volunteers and docents,” Sampson said.

There are seasonal spring and summer camps for kids and teens. Kids ages 5 to 10 years old have the opportunity to enjoy tide pooling, dissections, and other interactive activities with marine life.

Teen campers 11 to 14 years old also get to participate in a floating lab, kayaking, fishing, and a research-based project.

There is even a wine night for adults called Sharks After Dark, where local experts give a talk about marine science topics such as oceanography or current marine events.

Another addition to the aquarium is its new outdoor space located to the left of the facility. Soon, campers or children participating in programs will be able to enjoy an outdoor setting for certain activities.

“In view, in earshot, and really smelling the ocean and talking about things that are happening out there,” Johnson said.

The public is also welcome to rent the outdoor space for their event needs as well as the upstairs classroom area. To learn more about the Central Coast Aquarium or how to support the local educational facility, visit centralcoastaquarium.com.

Yes, two short years is all it took us to be so inundated with lies and deception that the truth is nothing more than what we’re told it is, over and over again. In less that two short years we’ve witnessed Nazis roaming freely and openly in the streets of America.

We have corrupt Cabinet members who are beyond any possible redemption

You’ve found a way to turn our allies into antagonists and the world’s most brutal dictators into friends (sorry, you come in as a not too distant second to Kim Jong-un on this one). Now, we know that our military exercises with South Korea were a total giveaway to the North with your influence.

Good work on keeping those sanctions against you down to a joke as well. We hear that you’ll be having a private meeting soon where you can institute new orders and fine-tune your existing plans. The G-7 was a great coup when our allies were insulted and dissed while your name was blatantly praised and glorified.

T

esa Becica’s recent opinion piece (“Guns aren’t the problem, society is,” June 14) dances around some telling statistics, misuses other statistics, and applies a distorted logic that appears too frequently in these pages.

This country’s gun problem is framed

Echoing the talking points of the NRA (National Rifle Association), Becica points to mental illness and absent fathers to explain this epidemic. These things are red herrings.

Canadians have a lot of guns, too, but their homicide by firearm rate is six to seven times less than ours. Are we supposed to think that we’re six to seven times as mentally ill as Canadians?

(These days, Canadians might think so).

Canadians have a lot of guns, too, but their homicide by firearm rate is six to seven times less than ours. Are we supposed to think that we’re six to seven times as mentally ill as Canadians? by the facts, which have been well documented for decades in worldwide gun ownership and homicide by firearm studies. Whereas it’s true in other countries that the mere presence of guns doesn’t necessarily lead to high homicide rates, here, the situation is different.

Compared to other developed nations, Americans have, by far, the most guns, and its homicide by firearm rate is 25 times higher the average of these other nations, according to a study published in the American Journal of Medicine in 2016.

Not double, not triple—25 times higher.

Within the country itself, the state-bystate correlation between higher rates of gun ownership and higher levels of gun violence is clear. Stated simply, in America, a higher gun count is directly related to more gun deaths.

There are also vast numbers of fatherless young men in Canada and other developed nations. But whether fatherless, frustrated, or alienated in some other way, young men in other countries don’t turn to gun violence the way they do in America. Why? America has a gun culture that promotes easy access to firearms and encourages their use. Whether it’s to defend the home, enforce the law, stand your ground, save your pride, or gain a twisted notoriety, the cultural message is the same: You can feel bigger, better, and stronger with a gun, and you can use it to shoot your way out of trouble or just make your mark when all else fails. Guns are touted as the ultimate answer to interpersonal problems. Guns are associated with individualism. This GUN CULTURE continued page 14

to mention is that Britain has a homicide by firearm rate that’s 2 to 3 percent that of the United States. Al Fonzi seems to think that the security and strength of gun ownership is more important than preventing the equivalent of a jetliner full of people from crashing each week.

Apparently, so does America.

Becica’s comparison of motor-vehicle related and drug overdose deaths to firearm related deaths is certainly ironic.

The use of cars, drugs, and a lot of other dangerous and potentially lethal things are strictly regulated—even when almost all injuries and fatalities are accidental.

Guns provide a massive point of contrast.

They are designed for one thing, which is to maim and kill. And yet every reasonable law and regulation is resisted, even when evidence from around the world clearly shows restrictions on their ownership and use reduce the body count.

Why? American gun culture.

Finally, Becica mentions the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). This organization, effectively directed and funded, might actually shed light on the gun violence epidemic. But for more than two decades it has been prevented from doing so by Republican lawmakers and the NRA lobby. Why? American gun culture.

This gun culture’s deep and complex roots aren’t easily undone. But loosening the grip this culture has on our thinking begins by dismantling the distortions of the NRA and commentators like Becica and Fonzi. ∆

Just think of it; becoming hostages at a tender age in an American internment camp could leave a lasting impression of us and possibly spurn some of them to seek retribution in a harmful, if not deadly way.

Hurrah, a trifecta of hate and violence reaching well into our future.

Stop child concentration camps Christians, Rejoice!

Biblical scripture is now the law of the land!

Kidnapping and disappearing children of asylum seekers from Central America, ripping them from their parents, is ordained by God. The resultant trauma inflicted is a righteous club intended to outweigh that inflicted by the life-threatening conditions in their homelands.

Ku-Klux-Klan-infused Attorney General Jeff Sessions invokes a Bible chapter (Romans 13) to justify this abuse as divinely ordained, as it has been historically used to justify slavery, Nazism, South African apartheid, and early 20th century white supremacy.

Letters This is a great revival!

As the scripture Sessions cites says, those who “resisteth the power … the ordinance of God … shall receive … damnation.” So be it. Let us yield blind obedience to authority, and surrender adherence to our moral and ethical values. Let us be numb to the pain we inflict on others as we sadistically rejoice in our ability to mete out punishment for disobedience to our bigoted orthodoxy.

Having helped to create the conditions from which people are fleeing Central America, by supporting corrupt dictatorships and murderous militias and refusing to support democratic movements, we self-righteously turn our backs on our victims and dehumanize and abuse those seeking refuge.

Christians, stop this sadism.

H

istorians unhesitatingly heap praise on the “Greatest Generation” and so they should.

They toughed out the Great Depression, the dust storms of the Great Plains, drought, and crushing poverty for more than a decade and then took on and crushed two highly militarized dictatorships in less than four years, then rebuilt Western Europe’s economy. They led the world for a quarter of a century afterword and created the economy that produced the greatest advance in standards of living ever experienced by any nation in recorded history.

To hear academics and naysayers today, none of it matters as their moral flaws negate anything positive that they produced. Many of their children (who are now seniors themselves) seem to agree as they systematically reject the very basis of the prosperity and freedom they enjoy.

When Pearl Harbor was bombed, the WWII generation lined up around the block at recruiting stations to defend their country; pride of country, icons of patriotism, and celebration of our heritage had been taught from their earliest youth. There were no second thoughts, doubts about moral equivalency between the Nazis, Imperial Japan, and Western values. We were the good guys, and the aggressors in Europe and Asia were plain for all with common sense to see.

When the World Trade Center was destroyed and nearly 3,000 Americans

killed that morning in 2001, a small number of recruiting stations were busy, but by week’s end the naysayers had already begun the familiar drumbeat of blaming America. Our military went to war and remains so but most Americans were hardly affected.

Perhaps what is most striking about the America of today is the illusion of national strength. The reality is so bad that at a recent conference of generals, they concluded that we would likely experience military defeat during the opening battles of a major conflict with Russia or China. Sixteen years of war and massive military cuts have left us in serious military jeopardy.

Author Arthur Herman’s book Freedom’s Forge details the incredible organizational skill of automobile magnate William Knudsen and what it took to rebuild America’s military in WWII. He defied the naysayers of his day and made accomplishing the impossible routine.

For instance, building a ship, a simple freighter, normally took nine to 11 months. Knudsen faced a shortage of shipyards with existing yards already operating at capacity. Knudsen told Henry Kaiser, a major shipbuilder, to put a shipyard in Richmond, California.

Naysayers said it would take six months to get the location (local mudflats) properly prepared to start building the shipyard. Knudsen and Kaiser had the

art water reclamation plant. The only problem is there is no hard evidence that the city will ever be able to reclaim any of that sewage water that is poured into the ground after treatment.

Groundwater studies have found nitrate levels too high for human consumption. I asked the project group at their last presentation at the Morro Bay Library about this, and their answer was something to the effect of: We don’t know but we’ll be running tests once the plant is built; we hope the nitrates will be diluted.

In other words, they are going to practically bankrupt the city of Morro Bay for a supposed reclamation project whereby the water may never be reclaimed. According to documents given to U.S. Congress members, this may cost Morro Bay citizens an additional $241 per month. That comes to nearly $3,000 per year for every Morro Bay household.

Serious money for a pipe dream.

Case Adams Morro Bay

should live instead of promoting debate and listening to our needs.

In a short time, our progressive mayor and council managed to pit cyclists against drivers, the old against the young, and turn the most reasonable residents into incensed bystanders. They wrapped expensive developments in the cloak of “affordable housing,” paid no attention to infrastructure, and violated the protections given to our natural reserves.

They voted for expensive separate bike lanes in old neighborhoods ill-equipped to support them, as well as foolish projects like million dollar bollards on Higuera.

All against the will of the majority of the residents who begged them to respect long-established sound policies, but were ignored or rebuffed.

A city council is not elected to dictate, it is meant to serve, and we, the residents, need to bring back real representatives into our city government.

Odile Ayral San Luis Obispo

Morro Bay’s reclamation pipe dream The Morro Bay City Council has been selling (and I mean selling) Morro Bay citizens on the idea that the outrageously expensive sewage treatment plant 3 miles out of town is going to be a state-of-the-

ground prepared in three weeks, the yard operational in three months and the first ship launched within six months. By the end of the war, American shipyards cut the time from laying of a ship’s keel to launch to four days. “A mobilized America provided two-thirds of allied military equipment in WWII … including 86,000 tanks, 2.5 million trucks, 286,000 airplanes, 8,800 Naval vessels, and 5,600 merchant ships,” Herman wrote.

We also provided the fuel to power that juggernaut we hurled at the Nazis and Japan—oil. Without oil, Japan could not have invaded Southeast Asia or China, and it was for oil that Hitler’s Nazis and Japan launched their campaigns of aggression. It was oil that provided the power for American industry to produce that arsenal for democracy, and it was the cutoff of oil to Germany and Japan that hastened the defeat of both.

Today oil is a dirty word, especially in California as we disparage all fossil fuels even though they provide 97 percent of all the energy used for transportation in California. Somehow electric cars are going to magically appear at costs anyone can afford to supplant “dirty” fossil fuels.

Actually, it is expensive oil that fuels the Russian military build-up and motivates Chinese expansion in the Pacific.

Restricting oil production (and increasing its price) keeps Russia’s Vladimir Putin and China happy.

I stated that we couldn’t do WWII

anymore, and we can’t. We have neither the manufacturing base that existed 75 years ago nor the skilled workforce to operate it. We lack the political will to defend the country or recognize evil when we see it. Today, Knudsen and Kaiser would be in their 10th year of environmental report revisions/lawsuits to get their first shipyard off the ground, by which time of course, California would have become a Japanese colony.

We’re continuously inundated with alarmist hysteria about the climate, the latest being the sea levels are rising faster than expected. The rise is about one-half a millimeter or 0.02 inches a year, which is barely measureable. (You likely won’t hear about the dispute among scientists over the cause of the melt, which is not climate but under-ice melting of the Western Antarctic ice cap.)

But California must save the planet even if it must go it alone. The local environmental warriors will strive to halt all oil production regardless of the economic impact on the county, which oil supporters say will directly deprive us of another $1 million in local taxes and up to $64 million in economic activity. That loss of revenue will impact our safety and quality of life.

Opinion

Zeros W

ahhh! I haven’t heard this much crying since John “Spray Tan” Boehner was House Speaker.

Of course, this time around it’s not a visit by Pope Francis or being handed the gavel that’s got a “brown” person’s waterworks flowing.

No, it’s the caterwauling of actual brown children being separated from their brown parents at the southern U.S. border thanks to Prez Donald “Immigrants Bad” Trump and his “zero tolerance” policy regarding asylum-seekers.

Before our Racist-in-Chief finally backed down and signed an executive order to reverse the policy on June 20, the Department of Homeland Security under Trump’s direction had managed to pry about 2,000 crying kids from their desperate parents who had sought refuge in the good old U.S.A., aka The Land of Opportunity, aka Honey, I Lost the Kids. How does that Emma Lazarus poem on the Statue of Liberty go again? “Give me your tired,” yada yada, something about, “Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me.” Somebody ought to put up an “Out of Order” sign on that big, green, lamp-holding lady. And “tost”? Get a proofreader, Lazarus!

Until he retreated, Trump, of course, un-presidentially passed the proverbial buck like it was covered in Russian prostitute pee and saying that

The Shredder Democrat-passed legislation has tied his hands. He’s just enforcing the laws, people!

Never mind there was zero truth to his statements!

“Democrat bad! Trump good!”

He’s at the mercy of Congress, see? You know Congress, right? It’s that Republican controlled legislative body that’s of the same party as the president … hey, wait a minute!

Republicans control the presidency, the House of Representatives, and the Senate, and it’s the Democrats’ fault?

Locally we have Democratic 24th District U.S. Congressman Salud Carbajal up in arms over the border debacle. He issued a press release condemning Trump’s policy and called for the passage of the Keep Families Together Act H.R. 6135, a companion bill to the one introduced by California U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein earlier this month, which would stop family separation.

Carbajal’s challenger for his congressional seat, Justin “Toe the Party Line” Fareed, followed up with his own press release claiming he’s also “devastated” by “photos of immigrant children crying after being separated from their parents” (note: it’s just the photos—not the actual immigrant children) but instead of specifically calling out Trump, he argued, “Our laws must be enforced,” even though— as already noted—there are no laws requiring separating families. Zero!

Fareed did mention other bills in

Congress—none of which are Feinstein’s bill—that purport to end family separation but have politically toxic elements attached that will lead to zero Democratic votes. No one, other than Feinstein, seemed willing to put forth a bill that would disconnect Trump’s immigration demands—like billions of bucks for his border wall and increased difficulty to earn U.S. asylum—from his zero tolerance family separation policy.

“Children should not be separated from their parents, and should never be used as bargaining chips … will Salud Carbajal do his job and be part of that solution?” Fareed asked, ignoring the fact that Carbajal is doing his job by publicly supporting Feinstein’s bill and that the bills Fareed references do in fact use children as bargaining chips, as in, “We’ll stop the separation if you give in to all our other immigration demands.”

Sigh. Forget about kids on the southern border; we’ve got a toddler in the White House.

Frankly, I sort of miss Crybaby Boehner. He clearly had more heart than current House Speaker Paul Ryan, another “compassionate conservative Christian” who’s short on compassion and unclear on Christ’s message, and who refuses to demand an unfettered end to Trump’s zero tolerance policy.

Speaking of crybabies, did 4th District Supervisor Lynn Compton, who’s locked in a nail-biter race with challenger Jimmy Paulding, really sue Clerk-Recorder Tommy Gong in SLO Superior Court to stop him from processing ballots with unconfirmed signatures? Yes. Yes, she did.

Gong said there were 35 mail-in ballots he was trying to confirm signatures for before adding them to the tally, but Compton and her lawyers cited a technicality about allowing only eight days to confirm signatures, and if they’re not confirmed, to throw the ballots away.

Gong disputed their interpretation of the law, but regardless, what’s more important: the letter of the law or fairness? Do these voters deserve to be disenfranchised?

On the other hand, if some voters are too daft to properly fill out a mail-in ballot and correctly complete their signatures, should their votes count? That’s a real conundrum, eh?

No, it’s not! Gong should do everything in his power to confirm the authenticity of the disputed ballots and make sure those votes are counted in the tally. That’s the spirit of the law!

And Judge Barry LaBarbera believes in the spirit of the law! He ruled against Compton. Not that it made a difference— Compton is currently ahead by 55 votes. I guess she desperately wanted to maintain the conservative majority on the SLO County Board of Supervisors so they can continue their “highly functional” governance. They did recently manage to avoid going to court over the anti-fracking ordinance that garnered enough signatures to go on the November ballot. “Hey look, we agreed to follow the law!”

Yay? ∆

Central Coast photographers share life through their lenses in this year’s Winning Images contest

BY CAMILLIA LANHAM

A

picture is more than just the image it portrays. It encompasses the way the photographer who captured it sees light and dark, angles and lines, animate and inanimate. Each snapshot is as unique as the person holding the camera.

Since 1994, New Times Media Group has invited local photographers to show us life from their point of view in our annual Winning Images contest.

This year 409 photos were submitted, which our judges narrowed down to three winners each

in eight categories and seven honorable mentions.

Every entry also came in with a $5 fee, which will be rolled back into prize money for the winners, who also receive awards from the contest’s sponsors.

Although you can see the winning images from 2018 on the following pages, you can also view them on the wall at the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art through June 24. ∆ Contact Executive Editor Camillia Lanham at clanham@newtimesslo.com.

WINNING IMAGES continued page 18

The 2018 judges • San Luis Obispo native and perennial Winning Images judge Peggy Mesler is a photographer and owner of The Photo Shop in SLO, where she shares her appreciation for and knowledge of photography with customers, clients, and friends. Peggy graduated with a journalism degree from Cal Poly, and she opened her shop in 1995.

• Robert Dyer is a former award-winning staff photographer with The Tribune whose accolades include the California Press Photographers Association Gold Seal and recognition nationally by the Associated Press. After 30 years of photojournalism and commercial photography, his cameras are now directed primarily to his wife and daughter.

Meanwhile, social services with the county of SLO have become his passion.

• Former Cal Poly and Cuesta College photography professor Marta Peluso was the executive director of ARTS Obispo from 2006 to 2011. She retired in 2017 and continues to make art in her studio full time. Her interest lies primarily in straight black-andwhite imagery with an emphasis on environmental portraiture and social landscape. She believes there is nothing as mysterious as a fact clearly seen, much like photographers Garry Winogrand and Diane Arbus. See her photography at SLOMA in mid-December through January 2019 in a solo exhibition, Light From a Dark Room.

Brazilian singer Seu Jorge plays the Fremont

L

ike a lot of his fans, I “discovered” Seu Jorge when he played Pelé dos Santos, the acoustic-guitar-playing David-Bowie-cover-singing member of the Calypso crew in auteur Wes Anderson’s 2004 Jacque Cousteau comedy homage The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.

Seu Jorge’s renditions of “Starman,” “Rebel Rebel,” “Rock & Roll Suicide,” “Life on Mars?,” and “Five Years” were instantly charming, and Bowie himself said, “Had Seu Jorge not recorded my songs in Portuguese, I would never have heard this new level of beauty which he has imbued them with.”

This Monday, June 25, Seu Jorge plays the Fremont Theater (9 p.m.; all ages; $35 to $50 at eventbrite.com and Boo Boo’s).

He’s had quite a life, born Jorge Mário da Silva in 1970 in Belford Roxo in Rio de Janeiro. He knew early on he wanted to be a musician, and he’d often attend dances and sing in the streets. He left home at 19 and became homeless for three years, yet he became well known in the ghetto-like favelas that nurtured his talent. Around this period, he also discovered theater.

Famed clarinetist Paulo Moura eventually found Seu Jorge and gave him his first professional shot, and his life has never been the same. In 1998, as part of the band Farofa Carioca, he fist recorded his songs on the album Moro no Brasil.

His first solo album, Samba Esporte Fino,

was released outside Brazil under the name Carolina in 2003, but his next solo album, Cru (which means “raw”), was released in 2005 hot on the heels of his appearance in The Life Aquatic.

He’s been working in music and film ever since, and a quick look at his film bio reveals three film appearances this year as well as the lead in a film called Marighella, which is filming now.

He’s got an amazing voice and a cool, laidback style, and claims Stevie Wonder as a major influence. I can’t wait to see this one!

Also coming up at the Fremont is The Milk Carton Kids on Thursday, June 28 (8:30 p.m.; all ages; $30 to $50

at eventbrite.com and Boo Boo’s). This is a terrific indie folk duo that performs beautiful, harmony-rich vocals, beautiful melodies, with wonderful guitar playing from Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan.

Each of their four albums is brilliant, and they released the first two for free!

Police tribute band delivers “the ultra high-energy show The Police were known for in the 1980s,” according to press materials, and Police drummer Stewart Copeland praised the band, saying, “every nuance, all the drum parts, and the singer has Sting down to a T.” Numbskull and Good Medicine also have an outdoor show at SLO’s Mission Plaza scheduled for next Thursday, June 28, when The California Honeydrops play (5:30 p.m.; all ages; $20 presale at ticketfly.com or Boo Boo’s, or $25 at the gate).

Nobody plays the bass like Les Claypool, who taps, slaps, flamenco-like strums, and whammy-bar bends notes in all directions. He went to school with Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, who got him a tryout with Metallica after bassist Cliff Burton died, but frontman James Hatfield didn’t give him the job because he was “too good” and “should do his own thing.”

His own thing turned out to be Primus, which released its startling debut Suck on This in 1989, followed by four more outstanding studio albums: Frizzle Fry, Sailing the Seas of Cheese, Pork Soda, and Tales from the Punchbowl.

If you watch South Park, Primus recorded the banging weirdo theme song.

There have been personnel changes over the years, a hiatus or two, but to me, the

band has always been Claypool delivering his patented alt-metal, funk-metal, experimental, and progressive rock.

Primus and co-headliner Mastodon play the Avila Beach Golf Resort next Thursday, June 28, in a beach concert brought to you

by Otter Productions Inc. (gates at 5 p.m.; all ages; $40 to $249 at eventbrite.com).

More music …

Celtic rockers Young Dubliners play Concerts in the Plaza this Friday, June 22 (5:30 p.m.; all ages; free), in SLO’s Mission Plaza. Formed in LA in 1988, the group is led by Keith Roberts, who several years ago moved his family to the Central Coast. If you like The Pogues or The Waterboys, you’ll dig them!

Steve Poltz headlines the For the Folks Summer Solstice show to benefit ECOSLO on Friday, June 22, at Bang the Drum Brewery (doors at 6:30 p.m.; all ages; $10 at eventbrite.com), with the Cimo Brothers opening. Poltz delivers unforgettable troubadour stylings. The Canadian singersongwriter is perhaps best known as a founding member of The Rugburns and for his collaborations with Jewel.

Troubadour Jody Mulgrew, who grew up on the Central Coast but now resides in SoCal, will be joined by Ojai’s Smitty & Julija for show at The 4 Cats (formerly the Steynberg Gallery) this Friday, June 22 (7 p.m.; all ages; $15 with reservations by calling (805) 547-0278).

This should be a great evening of singersongwriter fare!

Are you sick of editing or regurgitating press releases about nothing exciting day after day?

Or maybe it’s those damn list things—you know the ones: “Top 10 ironic places to find hipsters painting lemons on top of bicycles.” Or maybe it’s just not being able to put the time and reporting into a story that deserves it: the weeks and repeated meet-and-greets that give a story what it needs to ripen into the nuanced, spellbinding narrative it’s dying to be.

Can you find the unassuming local artist who’s about to blow a hole in the status quo? Do you know what it means to find the culture that matters to a community—the stuff that gives a population its heartbeat, its soul? That sweet spot where culture, politics, art, and society collide into a massive chaotic hurricane of beautiful expression. Can you nurture that ability in somebody else and help coax it out of his or her stories?

If so, then you’re exactly who we’re looking for: an arts editor who isn’t afraid to manage a section and the people who come with it, someone who isn’t afraid to take on the tedious, the tenuous, or the talented. That quiet giant who can wrestle a story to the ground and fill it with the things that matter to San Luis Obispo County. It’s not all about vineyards, rolling hills, and pounding surf brushed with light, ethereal watercolors (although that’s definitely here). It’s about that human element and where creativity lives. Can you find it?

Let us know if you’ve got what it takes. We dare you. Send résumé and clips to Cindy Rucker at crucker@newtimesslo.com.

Arts Artifacts Community improvement through art

The California Arts Council will award a $2,500 planning grant to the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art as part of its JUMP StArts program, museum officials announced June 12.

The JUMP StArts program is specifically for youth in the juvenile justice system.

The museum will use the grant to establish the roles and responsibilities between the San Luis Obispo County Probation Department and SLOMA’s teaching artists and staff. The program will provide pro-social art making activities for moderate- to high-risk youth housed at the SLO County Probation Department’s Coastal Valley Academy. The initial grant of $2,500 will allow the museum to set up timelines and expectations for the program before applying for a full-fledged grant of up to $50,000.

“The satisfaction of creation, skills development, and self-awareness should lead to increased selfesteem—validating who they are—both separate and in community,” Karen Kile, executive director of SLOMA, said in a statement.

Jim Salio, chief probation officer for the county, said the program would be beneficial for the children in the local juvenile justice system.

“The San Luis Obispo County Probation Department is thrilled to partner with SLOMA on this very exciting project,” Salio said in a statement. “The youth at the CVA love to be creative, and we are so excited to be able to offer them such a positive pro-social activity like art.”

In the city Selections: Bay Area exhibit highlights two San Francisco artists

F

or 30 years artists Anne Subercaseaux and Flora Davis have bonded over two common threads: their art mentor Elaine Badgley Arnoux and the city of San Francisco.

While the two have often shared studio space and have been featured in group art shows together, the Selections: Bay Area exhibit that’s currently on display at the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art, marks their first duo show. While both women now call San Francisco home, they each relocated to the city as young adults, Davis from Southern California and Subercaseaux from New York.

Hella art In a note in The Selections: Bay the program Area exhibit, featuring the for the show, works of San Francisco Badgley artists Anne Subercaseaux and Flora Davis, will be on Arnoux display at the SLO Museum described of Art through Aug. 19.

Visit sloma.org for women mixing more information. daily life with the complexity of creating art, each journey their own.”

Subercaseaux lives near the Dolores Mission and creates oil paintings, and Davis lives near the Presidio and favors metal. Both of their artistic styles could be labeled abstract. Subercaseaux, who has a background in drafting for engineering and architecture, takes inspiration from the structures found in the city, the shadows and the light bouncing off buildings.

“There’s a lot here to capture,” Subercaseaux said. “I don’t have to go far to be inspired.”

A series of her paintings, including Reflections on Crossing XXIV, were inspired by a time in her life when

DOWN BY THE BAY Pieces like Anne Subercaseaux’s abstract oil painting Reflections on Crossing XXIV, were inspired by commuting across the Bay Bridge for a period of time.

NATURAL MEETS INDUSTRIAL While artist Flora Davis works with metal, she seeks to give it an earthier look in pieces like Cenalopod. Her work in inspired in part by the juxtaposition of urban sprawl, forest, and ocean found within San Francisco.

Subercaseaux was commuting across the Bay Bridge. She also crafted a series of monochromatic paintings after looking at the interiors of more modern buildings.

“When I see new buildings go up, I always look at them. It’s a fascination,” Subercaseaux said.

In her work, Davis often favors bronze and will crinkle, scratch, weave, and put hooks in the material to take off some of the shine and give the finished product a more matte, earthy look.

“It’s not the plain metal anymore,” Davis said. “It’s becoming something else. When I do these pieces they become a form of meditation. It’s something to bring calmness to your environment.”

A fusion of industrial and natural elements inspires Davis’ work in an indirect way. While she lives in a major city, she’s near the Presidio by Mt. Lake Park and not far from the ocean, either.

“I really like the city,” Davis said. “But I really am drawn to the natural world. It’s strange. Maybe I need that contrast to do the kind of work that I do. I think I could live in the countryside, but I would always have to come back to the city. The energy here is different.” ∆ Arts Editor Ryah Cooley is addicted to Bi-Rite Creamery, located across from Dolores Park. Contact her at rcooley@ newtimesslo.com.

SUPER BABY As baby Jack-Jack’s powers begin to emerge, it’s clear he’s on the gifted end of the super spectrum, possessing multiple powers and abilities.

A super hiatus Editor’s note: Arts Editor Ryah Cooley and Sun Staff Writer Spencer Cole stepped in to write this week’s Split Screen while Glen and Anna Starkey were partying away at the Live Oak Music Festival. The Starkeys will be back critiquing movies next week.

F

rom Writer/Director Brad Bird (Ratatouille) comes the sequel Incredibles 2, 14 years after the original film premiered. Everyone’s favorite family of superheroes is back in Incredibles 2—but this time Helen (voice of Holly Hunter) is in the spotlight, leaving Bob (voice of Craig T. Nelson) at home with Violet (voice of Sarah Vowell) and Dash (voice of Huck Milner) to navigate the dayto-day heroics of normal life. It’s a tough transition for everyone, made tougher by the fact that the family is still unaware of baby Jack-Jack’s (voice of Eli Fucile) emerging superpowers. When a new villain hatches a brilliant and dangerous plot, the family and Frozone (voice of Samuel L. Jackson) must find a way to work together again. (118 min.)

Ryah Confession: I either hadn’t seen the first Incredibles or had only seen bits and pieces. To remedy that I watched the original a few days before heading to the theater to catch Incredibles 2. My takeaway is essentially the same for both movies: They’re cute, fun films that just run way too long for a children’s animated movie. And it would have been easy in both cases to compress the storylines down to 90 minutes rather than two hours. That said, there are worse ways to spend an afternoon than watching Incredibles 2. After more damage is done to the city while the Incredibles family is

What’s it rated? PG What’s it worth, Ryah? Rental What’s it worth, Spencer? Full Price Where’s it showing? Downtown Centre, Galaxy, Park, Stadium 10, Sunset Drive-In fighting yet another bad guy, the program for supers in hiding is shut down due to pressure from the public and government officials. With no job prospects, Helen and Bob are hard-pressed to find a way to provide for their family, until a wealthy telecommunications tycoon, Winston Deavor (voice of Bob Odenkirk) reaches out to the couple and Frozone about a plan to make supers legal again. But phase one involves starting out on a mission with just Helen, aka Elastigirl, front and center, which brings some friction to her marriage with Bob, aka Mr. Incredible, as he’s forced to stay home with the kids while his wife fights crime and brings home the bacon.

This issue of a hetero-normative couple switching up their gender roles is glossed over a little bit, and I wish Bird had spent more time here.

Spencer It’s been 14 years 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. That’s more than a decade of Avenging, Dark Knightin’, Deadpooling, and world-saving that the crime fighting family and the world missed out on during their absence. Hell, when the movie premiered, Tobey Maguire was still Spiderman. Yes, there have been five Spider-Man movies since the first Incredibles came out. I still have trouble believing that even though I just wrote it.

Which is why I was all the more impressed with Bird’s follow-up for his super-powered family. It should be commended how he and the animation team at Disney’s Pixar managed to be true to the original without kowtowing to modern trends. 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 agree with Ryah that I would have liked to have seen a deeper exploration of gender roles, but I kind of get that doing so would have made the movie even longer (and at 118 minutes this one is asking a lot of its younger audiences, even with multiple action scenes and an endless array of power displays).

Ryah The new super villain that the Incredibles (well, mainly Helen) are up against this time is the Screen Slaver, a nemesis who uses our enslavement to technology to hypnotize victims using any screen around. In this state, the Screen Slaver can get anyone to do his evil bidding and they won’t remember it later. At the same time, the Screen Slaver is very antitechnology and thinks people are overly dependent on it at the expense of actually living life, which seems a bit ironic. The plot twist when the Screen Slaver’s identity is actually revealed will be surprising for the kiddos but less so for grown-up viewers. While this latest villain is superdependent on technology, Bird seems to have created a world that is weirdly vintage and modern. There is nary an iPhone in sight, and the paparazzi taking photos of super heroes are using old timey

ADRIFT What’s it rated? PG-13 What’s it worth? Rental Where’s it showing? Stadium 10 Baltasar Kormákur (Contraband, 2 Guns, Everest) directs this true story of survival about Tami Oldham (Shailene Woodley) and Richard Sharp (Sam Clafin), two free-spirited lovers and avid sailors who set off to cross an ocean only to encounter a catastrophic hurricane that leaves their sailboat in ruins and Richard gravely injured. Can Tami find the will to save them?

Imagine if romance novelist Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook, The Choice, The Best of Me) decided to write a disasterat-sea story and you’ll have a pretty good idea about Adrift. It opens post disaster,

as Tami awakens in the hold of a sailboat half submerged in water, a large cut on her head and badly bruised. She’s frantically searching for her fiancé, Richard, but she also knows she has to pump out the water before her boat sinks.

From there, the film proceeds to flash back five months to when Tami meets Richard. The film repeatedly moves through time, cutting between their romance and her struggle to survive and help a severely injured Richard, who can do nothing to help Tami besides provide advice and emotional support.

The romance part of the film is pretty sappy, and the disaster part of the film is fairly harrowing, but compared to what I consider the gold standard of lost-at-sea films, Robert Redford’s phenomenal All is

Lost (2013), Adrift is just OK. There’s plenty of drama, and Tami’s struggle to survive and save Richard and herself is certainly potent, but the film relies too much on emotional manipulation. As a true story, it’s an amazing tale of survival, but as a film, it’s good but not great. What really saves the film is a raw, powerful, and committed performance by Woodley.

Director Kormákur knows his way around seafaring disaster—his The Deep (2012) is about a fisherman trying to survive after his boat capsizes off the coast of Iceland—but his CGI storm in Adrift isn’t as impressive as the CGI of The Perfect Storm (2000).

It’s all these little things that undermine Adrift: The romance feels too easy, even with the argument about whether the

cameras. Meanwhile Evelyn Deavor (voice of Catherine Keener), Winston’s inventor sister, is busy designing the latest gadgets for their company. Also, why are Helen and Bob the only supers with kids? And why do we only hear, but never see Frozone’s wife, Honey (voice of Kimberly Adair Clark)? Would it have hurt Bird to give a strong female character of color some onscreen time that didn’t include nagging her husband? Are we to assume that she is the muggle equivalent of a non-super hero?

These are the burning questions I had as I left the theater. Still, Incredibles 2 is a pretty good time, but I’m cheap and would have been perfectly happy getting this flick from RedBox. Spencer Yeah, the film is certainly not without its missteps, specifically in how it handles Frozone’s wife, who really does just feel like a recycled gag from 2004’s Incredibles. How hard would it have been to design a character and give her some meaningful screen time besides reducing her to some cheap foil for Jackson’s Frozone to briefly interact with? As for the villain reveal, again, to echo Ryah, it’s not going to come as a shock to seasoned moviegoers but may catch a few distracted parents, and especially kids, off guard. That being said, I have to hand it to Bird for how he packages an action sequence and his apparent skill at pairing together super powers for battles like a sommelier with fine wine. The folks over at Marvel Studios could learn a lot from these films in terms of crafting fight scenes that, although almost always formulaic, can still be delivered in ways that make them feel fresh. Bird proves that multiple times throughout Incredibles 2 (just watch Elastigirl interact with her bike and try to tell me that’s not some cool out-of-the-box thinking for a chase scene involving a human being essentially made of indestructible rubber). I also wanted to take a minute to commend Bird’s choice to leave cellphones 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 superhero 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.

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 couple should accept $10,000 and two first-class return tickets from San Diego to Tahiti in exchanges for piloting the luxury sailboat to California for Richard’s friends, a rich British couple; the CGI is good but not great, leading to distraction and pulling viewers out of the drama; and there’s a twist near the end that won’t be a surprise for those familiar with Tami’s adventure, but that might seem like a gimmick or trick to those—like me—who were unfamiliar with her tale.

It’s a film that’s worth seeing, and if you’re a fan of the genre, hit a matinee, but I think I would have been pleasantly surprised to rent this film at Redbox or even wait for it to show up on a streaming service. (120 min.)

MOVIES from page 47 estranged from her family and the Orthodox Jewish community to which she previously belonged. She returns after she is suddenly notified of her father’s death, and in doing so is reunited with her two best friends, Esti Kuperman (Rachel McAdams, Spotlight) and Dovid Kuperman (Alessandro Nivola, American Hustle) who are now married.

Upon seeing Esti, a flood of past feelings come back to both of them.

Over the course of the movie, we watch as Ronit and Esti begin to re-establish their friendship, and rediscover their taboo love for each other, while Esti struggles through her marriage with Dovid, the judgement of her spying friends, and the entire community around them.

The way Ronit and Esti’s relationship is depicted is extremely deep and resilient. It’s beautiful, sensual, and yet hesitant and tentative. Its exploration of personal beliefs and social and familial responsibility, in contradiction with sexuality and absolute love, may be one of the most true to life displays you could hope to see on screen.

The objectification of gay women in the media is a widely recognized phenomenon, and in 2018 you’d expect that to begin to change. But if you’re expecting a significant change out of this movie, you may be left feeling confused. While much of this film is a beautifully moving experience for the audience, there are also moments, which are stressful, underwhelming, and somewhat fetishistic—which only causes disappointment.

The movie does a wonderful job of showing the struggle of exploring sexuality within an Orthodox Jewish community, and the ostracizing and anger it can cause. It also explores the ideas of feminine roles within that community, including the covering of married women’s natural hair, as well as traditions around sex, marriage, and having children.

However, all of this does not pay off in an effective or satisfying way, and the would-be emotional ending falls short and is quite confusing. The decisions made by the three main characters do not seem to follow what the rest of the movie has been setting up. That being said, the ending does wrap up the familial conflict of the movie in a touching way.

Disobedience is worth seeing for its exploration of religion and sexuality alone, but also for its very genuine and intense acting and its cinematic beauty. (114 min.)

REPRESSED In Disobedience, two women (Rachel McAdams and Rachel Weisz) explore the boundaries of faith and their mutual attraction to one another.

Pick

Writer-director Ari Aster, in his feature-length debut, helms this supernatural horror story about Annie Graham (Toni Collette, About a Boy), who after her mother Ellen dies, begins noticing strange goings on while simultaneously examining her family’s disturbing history.

Even though I’ve determined I can’t be frightened by movies anymore, I still like to try, and I can say this about Hereditary: It’s doing everything right! It’s moody—a slow burn of tension and foreboding.

When it resorts to sparingly used jump scares, they’re very effective.

The acting is stupendous! Collette is fantastic, playing Annie as a woman on the brink of a meltdown, who internalizes so much that her raw emotions can’t help but burst out uncontrollably. Likewise, Gabriel Byrne (Defense of the Realm) plays her husband Steve with a quiet resignation. He knows Annie’s been through a lot and is often on edge, and he does his best to understand, but he’s close to his own breaking point.

Kids can be eerily scary, and Milly Shapiro in her breakout role as 13-yearold daughter Charlie is perfectly cast.

She plays a quirky child, odd-looking, off-putting, and in some non-specific way differently abled. Alex Wolff (A Birder’s Guide to Everything) is her brooding older teenage brother Peter, who feels put-upon to include Charlie in his mostly awkward social life.

This nuclear family is bubbling over with secrets, and this supernatural story takes cues from Rosemary’s Baby, The Omen, and The Exorcist—all worthy influences. My problem is I don’t believe in the devil or

the occult, so it’s hard to become scared of those ideas, but I still really enjoyed the atmospherics, acting, and direction.

Aster, who until now has only written and directed short films, has an auteur’s vision.

I’ll definitely go out of my way to see his next film, and I highly recommend this one.

This really is fine filmmaking. Annie, an artist, creates miniatures that mirror her life. She uses the dioramas as a kind of journal or diary, chronicling everything around her. With her gallery breathing down her neck to see her progress before her next show, it just increases her stress.

I don’t want to burden Aster with the label “Hitchcockian,” but he’s got some important foreshadowing going on (and a penchant for including Hitchcockesque tension-filled music—think raw-nerved composer Bernard Herrmann-lite). When Charlie is lightly rebuked by her teacher for not doing her assignment, a bird crashes into the classroom window. Charlie is later seen picking it up and mutilating it in a way that gains importance as the tale continues. In another scene, Peter’s teacher is talking about a Greek tragedy and asking his students what would be more tragic: having free will and making the bad choices that lead to the tragedy, or not having free will, making the tragedy inevitable?

That’s at the heart of this story: Is what befalls Annie and her family preordained?

Aster moves the camera around Annie’s miniatures, sometimes flawlessly shifting from them into the life-size rooms they’re based on, and Aster also frequently uses MOVIES continued page 49

SPAWN

stylish and ultra-violent 1990s comic Spawn. The film, which debuted to much fanfare in 1997, was released at the When? 1997 of the comic’s popularity, and What’s it rated? PG-13 (theatrical height sadly, well before Hollywood landed release), R (director’s cut) on the successful formula to translate Where’s it available? Hulu, DVD popular comic books to the big screen.

The plot of the Spawn film hews ome of you may be too young to closely to that of the comics, and tells the remember this, but there was once a story of highly skilled, government-trained time when not every comic book movie Special Forces assassin Al Simmons was a smash hit. In fact, in those dark (Michael Jai White) who is betrayed and days most attempts to translate comickilled by his boss, Jason Wynn (Martin book heroes to the big screen produced Sheen). Simmons finds himself in hell, disappointing flops. where he strikes a deal with the powerful It is in this era that we got a movie demon Malebolgia to return to Earth with adaptation of artist Todd McFarlane’s supernatural powers and a cool-looking PHOTO COURTESY OF NEW LINE CINEMA costume to seek revenge. In return, Simmons, now called Spawn, agrees to lead Malebolgia’s demon armies in an apocalyptic war against heaven.

As in all deals with the devil, Spawn gets more than he bargained for. He wakes up with his demonic powers, but no memory of his previous life and he’s horribly disfigured to boot. The movie follows Spawn’s attempt to recover his memory, kill Wynn, and win back his wife, Wanda (the late Theresa Randle)—all while two supernatural sidekicks, a reformed Spawn Coglisotro (Nicol Williamson) and a murderous demon in the shape of a fat clown named the Violator (John Leguizamo), fight over the fate of his immortal soul.

Despite all it has going for it (a good TOO SOON? 1997’s cast, cool story, smash hit comic cache), the film Spawn simply failed to live up to Spawn was about 20 its source material. McFarlane’s comic years ahead of the recent mixed dark, gory, and gritty themes comic book movie boom with colorful and dynamic images that and suffered for it. exploded off the pages of the comic book.

S

PLEASURES The movie failed to capture that energy, and in its theatrical release, toned down some of the violence and other elements to get a PG-13 rating. HBO’s animated Spawn series did a far better job and is the superior adaption of the two. To its credit, the film does have decent acting, and its special effects (Leguizamo’s makeup specifically) and computergenerated graphics still hold up pretty well for being such an old film.

Also, there are hints of what was to come for comic book movies in Spawn.

It was one of the first big-budget comic book adaptations to feature a black main character, paving the way for the much more successful Black Panther more than 20 years later. While the theatrical release was rated PG-13, the director's cut of the movie was rated R, and showed that there was, and would be, an adult audience for R-rated comic book movies like the more recent Deadpool franchise.

There has been news that a new Spawn movie with a 2019 release date is in the works, starring Jamie Foxx in the titular role. In a post-Avengers world, maybe the comic book will finally get the cinematic treatment is truly deserves, but Spawn wasn’t and will never be your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, and maybe his best look should remain in the pages of McFarlane’s comics instead of the silver screen.

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.

Ginsburg, a Brooklyn native, entered Harvard Law School in 1956 as one of nine women in a class of 500. She juggled her coursework with caring for both her baby and her husband, who had fallen ill with cancer (but ultimately survived). After graduating, she struggled to find law work as a female professional, despite being at the top of her class. Ginsburg eventually became a professor at Columbia University, where she pioneered a class on gender discrimination.

In the ’70s, Ginsburg argued a series of discrimination cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. Here, West and Cohen manage to make what could have been a dry rundown of court cases compelling and dramatic. They tracked down the plaintiffs on these cases, who had faced gender-based discrimination ranging from unequal pay to unequal benefits as military service members. RBG weaves original audio from Ginsburg’s oral arguments with commentary from Ginsburg and others to drive home the historical significance of those cases.

Almost singlehandedly, Ginsburg changed the legal landscape for all women in the country.

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. You’d be hard pressed to find a more important living American icon than RBG, and

SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY

What’s it rated? PG-13 What’s it worth? Matinee Where’s it showing? Downtown Centre, Sunset Drive-In, Stadium 10, Galaxy Ron Howard (Splash, Cocoon, Backdraft, Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind, The Da Vinci Code) directs this Han Solo (Alden Ehreneich) origin story, set long before the rebellion, which explores how the cocky pilot met both Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo) and notorious gambler Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover). The film also stars Woody Harrelson as Tobias Beckett, a smuggler; Thandie Newton as Tobias’ wife Val Beckett; Emilia Clarke as Qi’ra, Han’s childhood friend; Paul Bettany as crime lord Dryden Vos; Jon Favreau as alien Rio Durant; and Linda Hunt as the voice of Lady Proxima.

Solo started with two different directors who were fired over “creative differences” before Howard took over, so there’s a somewhat disjointed and uneven artistic vision here, but that doesn’t stop the film from being a lot of fun.

We meet Han and Qi’ra living in a slum and dreaming of getting out. The opening set piece is a rousing chase and escape in which we see both Han’s recklessness and bravado. Things don’t quite go as planned, and Han ends up

Pick

in the imperial army, where his wisecracking nature does him no favors, but that’s also where he meets Tobias and Chewy, who team up for a big heist that leads to another big set piece, this one involving a cargo train.

There’s plenty of action, lots of one-liners, and showdowns between the good guys and the bad guys, not to mention some double crosses and surprises.

In the same tradition of Episodes IV through VI, Solo offers up a classic space Western. It’s not going to win any prizes for originality, but for Star Wars nerds, reverence for the series pays off here as we see the little bits of Han’s backstory we’ve learned from the original films play out. I was wholly entertained.

Frankly, I wasn’t sure about Ehreneich as Han. I grew up watching Harrison Ford and I couldn’t imagine anyone else in the role. There is a passing resemblance between the young Ford and Ehreneich, but instead of doing an impersonation of Ford as Han, Ehreneich makes the character his own.

Glover, on the other hand, seems intent on channeling Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian, but he does it so well, it’s a treat to watch. Glover’s star is certainly shining brightly right now. He was great as the host of Saturday Night Live a few weeks ago, and his music video for “This is America” has people talking.

These two characters are interesting enough and the actors have so much natural chemistry together that I would happily see another film with the pair. The story ends in a way that’s begging for a sequel, and I’d love to see Lando and Han meet for another adventure.

Solo is basically a popcorn movie— uncomplicated, emotionally one note, and with little more than entertainment in mind. It’s not the kind of film that sticks with you or challenges viewers in any way, but if you’re looking for an engaging space romp, I think Solo delivers. Be warned, however; it’s one of those rare films with a higher rottentomatoes.com critic rating (71 percent) than audience score (59 percent), so not everyone has liked the film as much a I have.

If you’re the rare person who’s new to the Star Wars franchise, you’d be better off starting here rather than the joyless Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Solo at least knows how to have fun. (145 min.)

City by the Bay A short trip to enjoy the delights of the bustle of San Francisco

I

t’s Memorial Day weekend when my brother and I decide on a whim to take a short trip to San Francisco. I went to the Fog City three years ago for the Outside Lands music festival. The festival was in Golden Gate park, so I spent my visit then in Ashbury Heights and the Mission District. This time around, I get to hang out in Union Square and the Central Waterfront.

We get a hotel room in Union Square and walk around that part of the city, checking out the name brand stores that line the streets. We, of course, had to take the trolley—like true tourists—to Fisherman’s Wharf. I like it because it’s a simple way to enjoy the views of a city that you would otherwise miss.

The wharf is a whole other ball game; there are so many people walking around, taking pictures, eating snacks, and checking out the shops.

There are two restaurants from my trip that I have to recommend—Sweet Maple and Tony’s Coal Fired Pizza and Slice House. Sweet Maple is in Lower Pacific

Tony’s Coal Fired Pizza and Slice House are a restaurant and slice house side by side in the Telegraph Hill neighborhood.

My brother and I decide to grab a couple slices of pizza and not wait around for a table. We stick with our instincts and go for the original pepperoni. I love pizza, but this is a masterpiece with the perfect cheese-to-thin-crust ratio. Did I mention the slices are as big as my face? I’m a petite-sized woman, so imagine that!

Our last memorable stop is 21st Amendment Brewery in the South Beach area, conveniently located near AT&T Park. I wouldn’t really have a love for craft beer if it weren’t for my brother, so my taste buds thank him.

n-site catering—with its intense prepping and controlled chaos—is a heck of a lot of work. Any caterer will tell you it can be a dream and a nightmare, with plenty of moving pieces to keep you in your toes.

However, there are moments that make the mobile food frenzy worth it. You might end up at a location you’ve never been, and sometimes—just sometimes—you might get to see your own backyard in a completely new light.

For Paso Robles restaurateur Carole MacDonal, it was a breezy day at the coast years ago, when her husband served a catered brunch for a high-end car event.

“I remember going to what I can only describe as a secluded castle-like home in Cambria, on a hill, overlooking the ocean,” she said of the dreamlike day. “Looking out over the sea, the unbelievable cars—it was just amazing.

And you’d never know it was there.”

With any luck, a few more of these inspiring off-site culinary surprises will be in store for Carole and her husband, chef Santos MacDonal. Together, the pair owns La Cosecha Bar + Restaurant and Il Cortile Ristorante in downtown Paso Robles. Now, they’re unveiling a new food truck—the vehicle that will propel Santos’ culinary vision into new territory.

Dubbed simply, “The Truck,” this stateof-the-art mobile kitchen will venture not only to “castles,” but to vineyards, the beach, and pop-up events across northern SLO County.

“Ultimately, catering is really about creativity and intimacy,” Carole said.

These two already know how to serve and delight, creating that connection between heart and food.

Perhaps that’s why both their restaurants are the very definition of “dining destinations,” garnering praise from Sunset magazine, Wine Spectator, and (most importantly) locals in search of elevated flavor.

Il Cortile Ristorante, located at 608 12th St., features chef Santos’ rustic Italian cuisine, always heightened by seasonal ripeness. Think homemade pastas, fresh seafood, top quality meats, and antipasti. The wine list, inspired by Santos’ food, is impressive—plus, with a new liquor license, you can now grab a martini, old fashioned, or digestivo.

You can make that a nightcap, as this hangout stays open till 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

Spanish for “the harvest,” La Cosecha Bar + Restaurant, located at 835 12th St., is the couple’s second creation, centering on the cuisine of Spain and South America.

Expect culture-specific, specialized Latin flavors featuring imported herbs and spices from each dish’s nation of origin (of course, Santos continues to take

DRIVING FORCE Chef/Owner Santos MacDonal of Il Cortile Ristorante and La Cosecha Bar + Restaurant in Paso Robles is known for fusing local farm fresh flavors with vibrant Italian, Spanish, and South American artistry. He’s now throwing his effort behind a new food truck that is purely his own expression.

ALL THIS CAME FROM A TRUCK? The Truck’s first event showed just what a mobile catering service can do. The fivecourse, sit-down dinner served at Clos Solène winery in Paso Robles featured a rustic barn, fine linens, and table service.

PARK IT Chef/owner Santos MacDonal (right) of Il Cortile Ristorante and La Cosecha Bar + Restaurant in Paso Robles has taken the wheel of a state-of-the-art food truck. Now, with wife and business partner, Carole (left) at his side, the couple is ready to bring a new kind of mobile fare to the masses.

full advantage of local farmers’ marketfresh produce, meats, and cheeses). The buzzing bar at La Cosecha also features a popular craft cocktail menu that combines herbs, fruit, and fearless creativity.

So, how much of the truck’s fare will reflect these already delicious offerings?

The answer is “all” and “none,” depending on the day and the event. You can choose menu elements from both restaurants, dream up your own menu, or let Santos decide.

“We are going to offer everything from small bites and sandwiches on a per person basis, all the way up to a full-on multi-course gourmet meal,” Carole said.

Robles featured a rustic barn, wine pairings, fine linens, elegant flatware, and table service.

“It was exactly like what you’d get at one of our restaurants; the guests were so pleased with the fact that everything came out hot and fresh,” Carole said.

“However, say we’re over at Tin City or a concert. In that case, we might offer five or six items you can buy off the truck. For other events, we’ll have small bites or a buffet line with the main entree being served right off the truck.”

In terms of specific menu items, that’s really up to chef Santos’ beautiful mind.

In a way, Santos has created his own style of Paso Robles cuisine; a worldly genre all his own.

“I really wanted an additional outlet to express all the ideas I have in the kitchen

and to help create one-of-a-kind menus,” Santos said. “We just want to help create intimate and unique dining experiences for one-off events.”

This chef means business. Just look at his truck, meticulously customized to detailed specs. Inside, you’ll find a fullsize commercial hood, six-burner range, flat-top grill, fryer, ample prep area—the whole nine yards.

“Santos wanted a smaller version of what we have at our restaurant kitchens; and this truck really is a full-on commercial kitchen,” Carole said.

But—and you may already be thinking this—how does one chef man three stations at once? Although Santos enjoys working the line (during my interview with Carole, he was busy making pasta), FLAVOR continued page 52

he has no problem delegating.

Bay Area chef Michael Espy, who relocated to Paso with a slew of catering experience, will help man The Truck.

Santos’ son, Fernando MacDonal, has taken the helm at Il Cortille, and chef Rosie Matias—along with Santos’ sister, Telma MacDonal, pour heart and soul into the female-driven kitchen at La Cosecha.

In the end, Santos knows that he is not, indeed, “the star.” His food rules the show, and his friends and family are the players.

Now that show is hitting the road.

Carole explained the tongue-in-cheek name of this feast factory on wheels.

“Il Cortile means ‘the courtyard,’ and we have a courtyard here; La Cosecha means ‘the harvest’ because the area is so well known for the harvest. The truck is ‘the truck’ because it’s not tethered to either restaurant,” she said. “We wanted to keep it independent so that we can play with creativity.” ∆ Hayley Thomas Cain still doesn’t know how chef Santos does it!

Atascadero’s annual Lakeside Wine Fest grand tasting uncorks this June 23, from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Atascadero Lake Park, which (as I spent some childhood years in A-Town) I will always associate with the nearby Charles Paddock Zoo. Long gone are the days when the best thing to do at the park was feed the geese stale bread, skip stones, and marvel at the monkeys swinging from branch to branch. Now, this grassy, sprawling shore has become pretty famous for its summer cluster of wineries, breweries, and cideries! There’s a lot to this little fest by the lake, including a winemaker dinner at the Pavillion on June 22 and a Sunday Fun Day “wine” down June 24. Whatever your wine fest experience, don’t forget to capture it on your iPhone or camera for your chance to win the annual photo contest. Take my advice, though. Don’t ever try to trick a goose into taking a selfie with you. It never ends well.

* Maximum Volume and Weight per garbage can: 35 Gallons / 40 pounds MISCELLANEOUS CHARGES – ALL CUSTOMERS: Returned Check Fee: $35.00 each BASIS FOR THE PROPOSED RATE INCREASES The Proposed Rate Increases are necessary for the Garbage Service to continue to provide safe and reliable solid waste removal, transportation and disposal services to the citizens of California Valley CSD. The increase is requested are due to increasing operational costs. Several factors have contributed to these increased costs, including, but not limited to, the rising costs associated with the operation of the Garbage Service, increased costs associated with operation and fuel for vehicles, ongoing maintenance, increased labor costs, and increased costs associated with meeting more stringent State and Federal regulations.

ANNUAL ADJUSTMENTS TO PROPOSED RATE INCREASE The District provides that revenue derived from rates should reasonably be expected to generate sufficient revenues to provide for Garbage compensation as calculated in accordance with the "City of San Luis Obispo Rate Setting Process and Methodology Manual for Integrated Solid Waste Management Rates". The Proposed Rate Increase Resolution, to be considered by the District Board of Directors on 5-22-2018 _, would authorize the District, without conducting a majority protest hearing, to adjust solid waste disposal rates annually based on findings:

• That the requested increase is limited to the Garbage Service increased costs of providing services consistent with the City of San Luis Obispo's Rate Setting Process and Methodology Manual for Integrated Solid Waste Management Rates; and

• Does not exceed the prior twelve (12) month percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

PROTEST: Under Proposition 218, if you are the owner of record of a parcel or parcels directly liable for payment of the garbage bill, you may submit a written protest against the proposed changes presented in the notice.

Only one protest will be counted towards the majority protest per affected property. If written protests are filed by a majority of the affected owners the proposed rate increase will not be imposed. Oral comments at the public hearing will not qualify as formal protests unless accompanied by a written protest.

Written protests regarding the proposed solid waste rate increase may be mailed to: CVCSD C/O SHIPSEY AND SEITZ INCORPORATED, ATTORNEY AT LAW 1066 PALM STREET SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA 93401 To be valid a protest must be in writing and received BEFORE the close of the public hearing on JULY 9, 2018.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court.

PAGE 2: STANDARD FAMILY LAW RESTRAINING ORDERS Starting immediately, you and your spouse or domestic partner are restrained from: 1. removing the minor children of the parties from the state or applying for a new or replacement passport for those minor children without the prior written consent of the other party or an order of the court; 2. cashing, borrowing against, canceling, transferring, disposing of, or changing the beneficiaries of any insurance or other coverage, including life, health, automobile, and disability, held for the benefit of the parties and their minor children; 3. transferring, encumbering, hypothecating, concealing, or in any way disposing of any property, real or personal, whether community, quasi-community, or separate, without the written consent of the other party or an order of the court, except in the usual course of business or for the necessities of life; and 4. creating a nonprobate transfer or modifying a nonprobate transfer in a manner that affects the disposition of property subject to the transfer, without the written consent of the other party or an order of the court.

WARNING-IMPORTANT INFORMATION California law provides that, for purposes of division of property upon dissolution of a marriage or domestic partnership or upon legal separation, property acquired by the parties during a marriage or domestic partnership in joint form is presumed to be community property. If either party to this action should die before the jointly held community property is divided, the language in the deed that characterizes how title is held (i.e., joint tenancy, tenants in common, or community property) will be controlling, and not the community property presumption. You should consult your attorney if you want the community property presumption to be written into the recorded title to the property.

The sale will be held in the breezeway adjacent to the County General Services Building located at 1087 Santa Rosa St, San Luis Obispo, CA 93408. The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid $360,019.35. There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale. When making

LegaL Notices their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling $36,001.93 [10% of the Secretary’s bid] in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $36,001.93 must be presented before the bidding is closed.

The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash.

The successful bidder will pay all conveying fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance.

The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclo-

LegaL Notices sure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein.

HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant. The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed. The amount that must be paid if the mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $355,540.62 as of June 8, 2018, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement. Tender of payment by certified or cashier’s check or application for cancellation of the foreclosure sale shall be submitted to the address of the Foreclosure Commissioner provided below.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS The City of Morro Bay invites proposals from qualified individuals and entities (“Proposers”) to redevelop Lease Site 62/62W, located at 551 Embarcadero Road, Morro Bay, CA 93442, currently operating as Kayak Horizons kayak rentals and sales. The Site includes land and water lease sections.

The City intends to select a Proposer to redevelop the Property.

The Property will be available on a long-term ground lease basis after Concept Plans for site redevelopment are approved.

The existing lease on this site expires on September 30, 2018.

Since, however, design, planning and permitting can take substantial time, the City is intending to leave the existing tenant in place on a lease holdover until Concept Plans for site redevelopment are approved and a new lease executed with the successful respondent to this Request for Proposals.

The City desires to solicit proposals to ensure maximization of public benefit from redevelopment and a long-term lease agreement for the Site. To do so, it is seeking Proposers who have the proven experience, financial resources, and professional expertise to deliver the highest quality and economically feasible project that is consistent with and best implements the land and water uses outlined in the City’s Waterfront Master Plan, Local Coastal Plan, Harbor Department Lease Management Policy and City Council Goals and Objectives.

Qualified Proposers may visit the City of Morro Bay’s Website, www.morrobayca.gov under the Bid Postings section for copies of the Request for Proposals, or written inquiries regarding the Request for Proposals can be obtained by contacting: Eric Endersby, Harbor Director, Morro Bay Harbor Department, 1275 Embarcadero Road, Morro Bay, CA 93442, 805-7726254, eendersby@morrobayca.gov.

Rob Brezsny’s Free Will Astrology Homework: Make a guess about where you’ll be and what you’ll be doing 10 years from today. Testify at freewillastrology.com.

ARIES

LIBRA

(March 21-April 19): According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you have cosmic permission to enjoy extra helpings of waffles, crepes, pancakes, and blintzes.

Eating additional pastries and doughnuts is also encouraged.

Why? Because it’s high time for you to acquire more ballast.

You need more gravitas and greater stability. You can’t afford to be top-heavy; you must be hard to knock over. If you would prefer not to accomplish this noble goal by adding girth to your butt and gut, find an alternate way. Maybe you could put weights on your shoes and think very deep thoughts.

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The coming weeks will be a favorable time to accentuate and brandish the qualities that best exemplify your Libran nature. In other words, be extreme in your moderation. Be pushy in your attempts to harmonize. Be bold and brazen as you make supple use of your famous balancing act. I’ll offer you a further piece of advice, as well. My first astrology teacher believed that when Librans operate at peak strength, their symbol of power is the iron fist in the velvet glove: power expressed gracefully, firmness rendered gently.

I urge you to explore the nuances of that metaphor.

TAURUS

SCORPIO

(April 20-May 20): You’re slipping into the wild heart of the season of discovery. Your curiosity is mounting. Your listening skills are growing more robust. Your willingness to be taught and influenced and transformed is at a peak. And what smarter way to take advantage of this fertile moment than to decide what you most want to learn about during the next three years? For inspiration, identify a subject you’d love to study, a skill you’d eagerly stretch yourself to master, and an invigorating truth that would boost your brilliance if you thoroughly embodied it.

GEMINI

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): If I were your mom, I’d nudge you out the door and say, “Go play outside for a while!” If I were your commanding officer, I’d award you a shiny medal for your valorous undercover work and then order you to take a frisky sabbatical. If I were your psychotherapist, I would urge you to act as if your past has no further power to weigh you down or hold you back, and then I would send you out on a vision quest to discover your best possible future. In other words, my dear Scorpio, I hope you will flee your usual haunts. Get out of the loop and into the open spaces that will refresh your eyes and heart.

(May 21-June 20): Playwright and novelist Samuel Beckett won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969. Four of his works were essential in earning that award: the play Waiting for Godot, and the novels Molloy, Malone Dies, and The Unnamable. Beckett wrote all of them in a two-year span during the late 1940s. During that time, he was virtually indigent. He and his companion, Suzanne, survived on the paltry wage she made as a dressmaker. We might draw the conclusion from his life story that it is at least possible for a person to accomplish great things despite having little money. I propose that we make Beckett your role model for the coming weeks, Gemini. May he inspire you to believe in your power to become the person you want to be no matter what your financial situation may be.

SAGITTARIUS

CANCER

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Members of the Dull Men’s Club celebrate the ordinary. “Glitz and glam aren’t worth the bother,” they declare. “Slow motion gets you there faster,” they pontificate. Showing no irony, they brag that they are “born to be mild.” I wouldn’t normally recommend becoming part of a movement like theirs, but the next two weeks will be one of those rare times when aligning yourself with their principles might be healthy and smart. If you’re willing to explore the virtues of simple, plain living, make the Swedish term lagom your word of power. According to the Dull Men’s Club, it means “enough, sufficient, adequate, balanced, suitable, appropriate.”

(June 21-July 22): I suggest you ignore the temptation to shop around for new heroes and champions. It would only distract you from your main assignment in the coming weeks, which is to be more of a hero and champion yourself. Here are some tips to guide you as you slip beyond your overly modest self-image and explore the liberations that may be possible when you give yourself more credit. Tip No. 1: Finish outgrowing the old heroes and champions who’ve served you well. Tip No. 2: Forgive and forget the disappointing heroes and hypocritical champions who betrayed their own ideals. Tip No. 3: Exorcise your unwarranted admiration for mere celebrities who might have snookered you into thinking they’re heroes or champions.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “A waterfall would be more impressive if it flowed the other way,” said Irish writer Oscar Wilde.

Normally, I would dismiss an idea like this, even though it’s funny and I like funny ideas. Normally, I would regard such a negative assessment of the waterfall’s true nature, even in jest, to be unproductive and enfeebling. But none of my usual perspectives are in effect as I evaluate the possibility that Wilde’s declaration might be a provocative metaphor for your use in the coming weeks. For a limited time only, it might be wise to meditate on a waterfall that flows the other way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Stage magicians may seem to make a wine glass hover in mid-air, or transform salt into diamonds, or make doves materialize and fly out of their hands. It’s all fake, of course—tricks performed by skilled illusionists.

But here’s a twist on the old story: I suspect that for a few weeks, you will have the power to generate effects that may, to the uninitiated, have a resemblance to magic tricks—except that your magic will be real, not fake. And you will have worked very hard to accomplish what looks easy and natural. And the marvels you generate will, unlike the illusionists’, be authentic and useful.

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sex education classes at some high schools employ a dramatic exercise to illustrate the possible consequences of engaging in heterosexual lovemaking without using birth control. Everywhere they go for two weeks, students must carry around a 10-pound bag of flour. It’s a way for them to get a visceral approximation of caring for an infant. I recommend that you find or create an equivalent test or trial for yourself in the coming days. As you consider entering into a deeper collaboration or making a stronger commitment, you’ll be wise to undertake a dress rehearsal.

CAPRICORN

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the Georgian language, shemomechama is a word that literally means “I ate the whole thing.” It refers to what happens when you’re already full, but find the food in front of you so delicious that you can’t stop eating.

I’m concerned you might soon be tempted to embark on metaphorical versions of shemomechama. That’s why I’m giving you a warning to monitor any tendencies you might have to get too much of a good thing. Pleasurable and productive activities will serve you better if you stop yourself before you go too far.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Please do not send me a lock of your hair or a special piece of your jewelry or a hundred dollar bill. I will gladly cast a love spell in your behalf without draining you of your hard-earned cash. The only condition I place on my free gift is that you agree to have me cast the love spell on you and you alone. After all, your love for yourself is what needs most work. And your love for yourself is the primary magic that fuels your success in connecting with other people. (Besides, it’s bad karma to use a love spell to interfere with another person’s will.) So if you accept my conditions, Pisces, demonstrate that you’re ready to receive my telepathic love spell by sending me your telepathic authorization. ∆
