To taste some of the pregnant sow to guarantee fertility of the land. foods typical of a maialata go to the recipes Communities still have norcini, or hog below for inspiration. They are adapted from
recipes found in Celebrating Italy (Morrow, 1990) by Carol Field. ------------------------This cassoulet-like stew is served as a vegetable in a typical panarda but it is a fine entree for a winter dinner. Use hot Italian sausages easily found in local markets.
Salsicce e Faciuol d’Pane (Sausage and Red Beans as Good as Bread) Makes 6 to 8 side-dish servings About 8-1/2 ounces dried borlotti beans; you can substitute pinto beans 2 pounds, 2 ounces fresh sausage made with fennel and red pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 onion, chopped 1/2 pound fresh Italian plum tomatoes (about five), chopped fine 1 or 2 basil leaves, chopped 1/2 peperoncino (dried red chile), seeded and chopped fine
The night before making the dish, rinse the beans, cover them with water and let them soak overnight. Leave the sausages uncovered in the refrigerator overnight or up to 18 hours so that they dry out a bit. Turn the sausages over once or twice so their entire surfaces will be exposed to the air. The next day drain the beans, put them into a large pot, cover with cold water, bring to a boil and cook 2 hours or until tender. Keep them warm over low heat (either over barely simmering water in a double boiler or on a hot tray). Meanwhile, cut the sausages so each
person gets 2 pieces. Put them in a heavy skillet and with just enough olive oil to film the bottom, saute them about 5 minutes. Remove them to a plate, add the chopped onion to the pan and saute until golden. Return the browned sausages to the skillet and add the tomatoes, basil and peperoncino, and cook over medium-low heat 20 minutes. Finally, add the beans and let everything cook over low heat 30 minutes, adding a little water now and then if the mixture gets too dry. Serve hot. ------------------------This sauce from Abruzzo is rich with the flavor of pork that cooks in it. It may be used with pasta or polenta and the meat is served as a main course. Because it should be degreased before it’s served, the sauce is best cooked ahead of time.

Open up the pork shoulder like a book, spread the interior with the garlic, half the parsley and the bread crumbs, then roll it up like a fat salame, lacing it closed with skewers and string. Wipe the meat dry. Heat the olive oil or prosciutto fat in a heavy skillet or large fireproof casserole and saute the meat over medium heat until it is lightly browned all over. Add the chopped onion, remaining parsley, the pepper flakes and the tomato sauce. Simmer over low heat uncovered about 2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Remove the piece of meat and serve it in a later course or at a different meal.

Freeway Fiction Contest
The Pacific Sun’s annual Freeway Fiction contest— short, pithy stories composed while commuting—is revving up again. In honor of Highway 101, these fictional nuggets must be exactly 101 words long. Although the story length is constrained, the subject matter is not—let your imagination soar as you conjure up situations, characters, action. Once you arrive at your home or office, put your road words down on paper (or Word doc as the case may be), slap on an appropriate title (titles don’t count as part of the 101 words) and send us your story. We’ll publish the best ones. All entries must be typed and include your name, address and phone number.

by Pat Fu sco
BABY, IT’S COLD OUTSIDE Reading a press release about the Fireside Jazz Club at Rickey’s Restaurant & Bar in Novato warmed me right up: live music on Friday and Saturday nights, 7 to 10pm, with a full bar and a bistro menu near an oldfashioned fireplace (415/883-9477). It got me to thinking of other Marin spots where it’s possible to enjoy the comfort of an open fire, very seductive at this time of year. Piazza D’Angelo in Mill Valley has seasonal appeal with fireside tables close enough to feel the warmth (415/388-2000), as does Left Bank in Larkspur with its brasserie menu—try hearty winter fare from the French countryside (415/927-3331). Perhaps the most atmospheric location is the Pelican Inn at Muir Beach with a huge fireplace in the dining room, timbers and furnishings imported from Britain. Diners can savor an authentic Sunday midday meal (11:30am to 3pm), when a typical “joint” is served (roast beef, ham or salmon) in its carvery. Buckshee Monday means small plates—fish and chips, bangers and mash— nothing over $8, a real bargain. Regular English specialties are available at lunch and dinner daily (415/383-6000). MOVIN’ ON UP West Marin continues to send food businesses to Petaluma. First Cowgirl Creamery met its need for more production space with a move to that city and now Straus Family Creamery will transfer warehouse and office operations there sometime early this year. This is not the end of local residence for the certified organic dairy: Marshall will remain the site for processing, pasteurization and bottling as well as production of ice cream and yogurt. The finished product will go to the Petaluma warehouse for storage and distribution. WIN-WIN SITUATION Here’s a chance to learn techniques from a celebrity cook, taste the results in a full meal and help a local service organization, all in one evening. Chef Joanne Weir, award-winning cookbook author and teacher featured in the PBS-TV series Joanne Weir’s Cooking Class, will be at Fresh Starts Cooking School in Novato Jan. 28 (6:30 to 9pm) for an interactive session creating a spicy winter menu. The school is a job-training center for culinary arts, operated by Homeward Bound of Marin, provider of residential and support services for homeless families and adults in the county. Cost is $49 per person. For details or reservations, visit www.hbofm.org and click on “Take a Cooking Class,” or call 415/382-3363, ext. 243.

Michael Cera, ‘kind of creepy and dangerous.’
‘Youth’ gone wild Desperate teen a little too desperate for theater director by Davi d Te mp l e ton
Writer David Templeton takes interesting people to interesting movies in his ongoing quest for the ultimate post-film conversation. This is not a review; rather, it’s a freewheeling, tangential discussion of life, alternative ideas and popular culture.
“D
esperation doesn’t have to be desperate,” laughs director Carl Hamilton, sipping a cup of hot chocolate in a small cafe in Santa Rosa. “On stage, or on film, there is a kind of desperation that is just fun to watch, and then there’s the kind of desperation that is uncomfortable, unpleasant. In Youth in Revolt, which I really liked, there was maybe a little too much of the desperate desperation, and not enough of the fun desperation. Other than that, it was great!” Hamilton has been directing stage shows in the Bay Area for over 30 years. He’s created several theater companies, directing everything from Hamlet and The Crucible to Evita and The Bible, the Complete Word of God (abridged). The last play he directed was Youth in Revolt, a stage adaptation that he developed several years ago. Still the owner of the theatrical rights to Youth in Revolt, a cult-favorite novel by Sebastopol author C.D. Payne (www. nicktwisp.com), Hamilton first produced a staged play of the book in 1994, presenting it in San Francisco in a production that Wikipedia refers to, succinctly, as “unsuccessful.” Since then, Hamilton has staged the show three more times. When the movie version,
starring Michael Cera as the fantasy-prone teenager Nick Twisp, was previewed at last October’s Mill Valley Film Festival, Hamilton purchased a block of tickets for himself and several of the various Youth in Revolt cast members from over the years. The film was finally released last weekend, so I invited Hamilton to sit down with me and share his impressions of the movie. “Let me ask you something,” he says. “What would you think about someone doing a theatrical version of one of Michael Cera’s other movies, one of his bigger movies?” “What, like Superbad?” I ask. “Superbad, yeah. If someone did a stage version of that, do you think people would come?” “Absolutely!” I reply, “Though I think it would be even better if it were Superbad: The Musical. That would be hilarious.” “I don’t know—musicals are a whole lot more expensive to produce,” Hamilton says, musing silently for a moment, no doubt conjuring images of singing-and-dancing teens performing a number called “It’s Not Easy Buying Liquor When You’re Under 21,” or a tender-sweet ballad titled “Let Me Be McLovin You All Night Long.” “What about Juno, the stage version?” he suggests. “That would be a part to die for. We’d have 200 16-year-old girls showing for the audition, all wanting a shot at playing Juno. “I think about this kind of stuff all the
time,” he laughs. “With the popularity of Michael Cera and these movies, and all the publicity surrounding them, why not take advantage of that in trying to lure some people from the movie theater to the real theater.” “What about just doing Youth in Revolt again?” “I’m playing with it,” Hamilton nods. “The reviews on this movie have been pretty good, and the preview we saw in October—just look at the audience reaction to that. They loved it. So maybe.” “Some of the lines do stick in one’s mind,” I remark. “Those lines have been playing in my mind for 15 years now,” Hamilton says. “Watching the film, it was like taking score at a football game. Every time someone spoke, I was thinking, ‘OK, that line made it in. That line made it in. Oops, they dropped that other line, interesting. Oh, and there’s that line!’ What really surprised me was their not including the bl--job scene. That scene always gets the biggest laugh when we do it on stage. That was always a big showstopper.” Hamilton’s biggest disappointment with the movie was the near-total omission of Lefty, Nick’s best friend—and the key player in the aforementioned fellatio scene—who is reduced to a single scene in the movie. “For me, the best scenes in the book, and the play, are the camaraderie between Lefty and Nick,” Hamilton says. “So, yeah, I missed him—but I understand why they cut him out. He’s so lovable that he might have upstaged Nick. When we’ve done it onstage, there was always the danger of the audience caring more about Lefty than Nick, ‘cuz he’s just so funny a character.” “So what did you think of Michael Cera’s performance as Nick?” I ask. “Oh, I liked it a lot, especially when he played his alter-ego Francois Dillinger. That was a side of Michael Cera we don’t get to see very often. “You know what though?” Hamilton continues, “Since seeing the movie, whenever I think about Cera’s performance, I think there was a bit of the dirty-old-man in it—a young,

This week, the former Christian fundamentalist brings his solo show Wretch Like Me to the 142 Throckmorton Theatre in Mill Valley.

virginal dirty-old-man. His obsession with sex made him seem kind of perverted.” “But Nick is obsessed with sex,” I point out. “Yeah, but in a really innocent way,” Hamilton replies. “Something about the way Cera played it made him kind of creepy and dangerous. Nick, to me, is a bubbly, sweet kid who just wants to believe that a girl like Sheeni would want to sleep with him, but in the movie, he’s a bit of a d-khead. He’s darker, more desperate. Nick is anything but desperate. He’s just enthusiastic about his fantasies.” “So, would you consider re-mounting this show again?” I repeat. “Oh, I’m always thinking about re-mounting it,” Hamilton says, laughing. “Let’s face it, I’m terrible at predicting what people want to see. If it were totally up to me, I’d do it again in a second, and if the movie is a minor hit, maybe there will be demand to see the theatrical version. I once directed Agnes of God the same month the movie came out, and that show did real well. So, yeah. Why not? I love Nick Twisp. I never get tired of that kid.” ✹ Discuss your favorite theatrically staged films with David at talkpix@earthlink.net.

n your typical American police procedural, the cops chase the bad guys, produce guns, solve serious crimes. Music throbs. The tension is high. Compared with these norms, the Romanian film Police, Adjective, directed by Corneliu Porumboiu, might be considered an anti-police procedural. There are no chases, no guns, and the only music is a banal pop song whose lyrics one of the characters subjects to a rhetorical analysis. The crime involved is minor; I won’t reveal whether it’s solved or not.

Take home the riotous CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS and pack the couch: Here’s a comedy that truly delivers fun for the whole family. Edgily adapting the 1978 kids’ bestseller to the world of computer animation, Meatballs drops us in tiny Swallowfalls, U.S.A., a sardine-packing town that’s seen better days. Flint Lockwood’s invention is about to change all that, and when he finally works the bugs out of his water-to-food converter, he’ll become star and savior to the island. But with fame comes struggle: political, as he runs afoul of the Swallowfalls mayor; amorous, when he falls for the weathergirl of his dreams; and mechanical, as his airborne gadget starts to act funny. The film is PG “for brief mild language”; it has an irreverent tone that features its own version of the Coppertone kid, still flashing that butt as he coasts dissolutely into adulthood, plus mismatched father figure Tim (James Caan), a G. Gordon Liddy ringer who tries desperately, if monosyllabically, to interest Flint in the family bait and tackle store. That’s fun for the grownups and there’s plenty more, but to really see how crazy-ape your kids can go over the ridiculous premise of falling food, well, you’ve just gotta watch with them.—Richard Gould

STARSTREAM Week of January 15-21, 2010
by Ly n d a R ay ARIES (March 20 - April 19) It is a week of planetary movement. Planets are changing signs as well as directions, resulting in new influences on your chart. On Friday, Mercury starts moving forward again, clearing up some questions regarding your career. On Sunday, expansive Jupiter enters your house of psychic energy and sensitivity. Tuesday, the creative Sun enters the excitable sign of Aquarius, providing amazing ideas on how to get the future you really want. Ready. Set. Go. TAURUS (April 20 - May 19) Both your ruler (hedonistic Venus) and the dramatic Sun leave the conventional sign of Capricorn to enter the rebellious sign of Aquarius. Playing by the rules will be less appealing for the next few weeks, and indulging in shocking behavior could take place. Meanwhile, Mars continues to wave a red flag in your face, stirring up even more defiance. Well, so much for your list of New Year’s resolutions... GEMINI (May 20 - June 20) The good news: Your ruler (Mercury) moves forward again this week, freeing your mind from confusing and compulsive thoughts. The bad news: Saturn is moving retrograde in your house of self-expression, possibly causing a setback in your creative efforts until you learn how to see things from a new perspective. Fortunately, the playful Sun and lovable Venus begin urging you not to take it all so seriously and just have fun. CANCER (June 21 - July 21) Although dealing with the karmic big boys, Saturn and Pluto, is a long-term project, other celestial bodies move forward this week and leave you alone. You can come out of your shell and see that much of the world is a friendly place—especially after Sunday, when generous Jupiter moves into the empathetic sign of Pisces, which also happens to be your solar travel house. You are now free to roam about the planet. LEO (July 22 - August 22) Having your ruler (the Sun) in the traditional sign of Capricorn during late December and early January works out well for the holiday season. But now you are ready to leave sentiment behind and embrace the future. There is likely to be a positive change in your financial situation in 2010. After two years of limitations, progress is knocking. Open the door. VIRGO (August 23 - September 21) Two important planetary events influence your chart this week. Your ruler (clever Mercury) moves forward again in your house of selfexpression, breaking any creative blocks, immediately followed by expansive Jupiter entering your relationship house. If involved, your sweetie brings loads of encouragement to you. Want to fall in love? Jupiter will bring tons of candidates. Want to break free of a bad union? Jupiter will provide a ticket out. Whatever your scene, you’re covered. LIBRA (September 22 - October 22) Forgot how to be any fun? The planets lighten up and remind you of just how friendly you really are. Co-workers are ready to help out instead of leaving you with all the work. Those of you determined to increase your fitness level this year should be careful NOT to overdo it. If your muscles haven’t done much more lately than press the buttons on your remote, take it slow. SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21) Certain misunderstandings get straightened out this week, but some of your ideas are still being strongly resisted. This is when your innate tenacity comes in handy. By Monday, you start feeling lucky. You notice a surge in romantic opportunities and better fortune in games of chance. Now if only your career would start heading in the right direction, life would be so satisfying. It’s always something... SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 20) Your strong opinions about the state of the planet could be on target, but could annoy others who believe in taking action. After a year of having your ruler (Jupiter) in the detached sign of Aquarius, you begin to understand why empathy could be a better tool than philosophy in healing the earth. Jupiter in Pisces may not turn you into a total bleeding heart, but it certainly will help. CAPRICORN (December 21 - January 18) Birthday on the 14th? This year signifies a new beginning that opens up significant doors. As for everyone else: Lovable Venus remains in your sign until Monday—so, make the weekend count, especially if you’re looking for love, money or some combination thereof. Meantime, your ruler (Saturn) is now moving retrograde in your career house. Put your ambitions on hold while you figure out what path is truly right for you. AQUARIUS (January 19 - February 17) You continue to be quite dreamy this weekend and less realistic than usual. But wishing for something will not necessarily make it come true. For instance, any travel plans for early 2010 must be business-related or they probably won’t get off the ground. Cheer up. Your birthday celebration begins on Tuesday right after expansive Jupiter enters your money house. Not only will you be confident and popular, you will find your financial picture getting brighter. Finally. PISCES (February 18 - March 19) Drum roll please. Lucky Jupiter moves into your sign this weekend. This bodes well for serendipity and also makes for a nice increase in your optimism. Nothing is sadder than a Pisces in the throes of self-pity, except possibly a Pisces who must drive a bus or do accounting instead of directing a film or writing a song. In any case, your ship has arrived. Start unloading your cargo and setting up your studio. ✹ E-mail Lynda Ray at cosmicclues@gmail.com or check out her Web site at www.lyndarayastrology.com 34 PACIFIC SUN JANUARY 15 – JANUARY 21, 2010

Teen Mentor for Teen Recreation Integration Program Lifehouse The Teen Recreation Integration Program (TRIP) is a unique recreation program for young people with developmental disabilities, ages 13-22, which allows them to participate in social and recreational activities that are similar to those of typically developing teens and young people who go out in the community and engage in activities with their friends. Social and recreational activities include such outings as movies, mini-golf, shopping and restaurants. Participants’ interests drive the activity choices and may occur in the evenings and on weekends..

They need willing volunteers and donations of money or usable goods to fuel their efforts.

Q:
Are we fighting human nature in trying to be monogamous? I’m dating a guy I dated five years ago. Back then, he was sexually inexperienced. Now that he’s been around the block, he wants us to have a sexually open relationship. I’m very open-minded and have no problem with people in these relationships but know they’re not for me. Civil conversation on the issue is impossible because he gets so defensive and riled up. He accuses me of looking down on him and finding him “disgusting,” which I don’t. He almost has me convinced that the only successful relationships are the open ones, and that I’m one of a minority of people who want monogamy.—Turned Around
Yes, the suburbs are just A: teeming with wives calling to their husbands as they’re going
Gideon, the guy the hotel room editions are named for, had lots of wives and a concubine.
out the door for work, “Honey, want me to TiVo your dinosaurs thing in case your sex date runs long?” Actually, it seems clear that vast numbers of people are having sex with somebody other than their partner or spouse. They just do it behind that person’s back, as did the then-married Newt Gingrich, probing Clinton about lying about l’affaire Lewinsky—when Gingrich wasn’t too busy probing his naked congressional aide. Other married cheaters will roll out of a motel room bed, then snarl about how horrible and disgusting it is for other consenting adults to have sexually open relationships: those where partners honestly confront the fairy-tale notions that one person can meet another person’s every need; that two people can remain together “till death do us part,” and not get to the point where keeping the spark alive is a job for a Panty Bomber-load of PETN explosive. The Bible is no help to those who claim that the multiple partnered are immoral and wrong. Gideon, the guy the hotel room editions are named for, had lots of wives and a concubine. King Solomon had hundreds of both. In Biblical Literacy, Rabbi Joseph Telushkin writes that “Biblical law permits a man to have more than one wife,” but he adds that “biblical narrative... depicts multiple marriages as almost always leading to multiple miseries.” Even Nena O’Neill, co-author of the ’70s bombshell Open Marriage, came around to that point of view. She subsequently wrote in The Marriage Premise that couples may agree to sexual nonexclusivity, but often experience jealousy, insecurity, resentment, anger and feelings of abandonment—“sometimes as strongly as they do when a clandestine affair is discovered.” But, he’s determined to have his cake and a bunch of other people’s cake, too, so he’s trying to bully and head-game you into believing you’re small-minded and boring. He’s got you so sidetracked defending yourself against bogus charges (looking down on him, finding him “disgusting”) that you’re on your way to glancing up from your relationship and finding that you’re no longer part of a couple but a face in the crowd. Ditch this guy and find one who’s open to discussing your needs— beyond how you’ll need to let him keep the key to your heart in a cabinet he bought off somebody running a valet parking concession.
Q:
I’d appreciate if you’d introduce me to a lady between 35 and 65 for friendship and more. I’m 48, 6 feet tall, 220 pounds. I’m an artist, writer and musician. I’m currently in prison, but I’m not guilty, so I expect to get out of here soon.—Jailhouse Rocker I guess you’re asking me to post a personals ad for you: “Enjoyed long walks A: on the beach; now enjoying short walks between electrified fences.” Sure, the incarcerated man has his merits: There’s no wondering where he is at night or worrying he’ll run off with another woman (at least not for another 10 to 20). Of course, a woman who goes for a man behind bars almost always has something seriously wrong with her. Luckily, like almost all the prisoners who write me, you’re innocent. Put your time into attracting a lawyer, and maybe you can invite a lady to your house instead of your House of Corrections. You’ll get a better class of woman when you can say you’re a 48-year-old artist/writer/musician rooming with another guy because you need to pick up extra cash, not because he got caught leaving three bodies in a ditch. ✹ (c), Amy Alkon, all rights reserved. www.advicegoddess.com.

What drew me to United Markets 31 years ago (besides the fact that I love to cook!) is that this family-based business had strong ties to the community and a reputation for great produce. The one comment I hear most from new shoppers is how theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re amazed at the quality and quantity of organics we offer. In total, about half of our produce selection is organic vs. conventional. We work with one main organic supplier who understands our commitment to quality. Our produce doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go through a main warehouse (like a chain store) before itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on display. This tighter control means our customers ďŹ nd fresher produce at great prices. Come check it out! â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Ed Gilardi, San Anselmo Produce Manager
