››LETTERS They should hire mild-mannered librarian Barbara Gordon... aka ‘Bat Girl’! Just saw this news item posted from Dallas: “As former President George W. Bush prepares to officially open his presidential library on Thursday, a question arises as it has for his predecessors: How objective will it be about his time in the White House?” Once again, dear editors, I must take issue with a We hope the former President will question posed equip his battalions of librarians by national with the proper Mylar sleeves and acid-free back boards to complete correspondents of major news their mission. media outlets. The real question is, how will the librarians keep all those comic books looking fresh and clean? Skip Corsini, San Rafael

Instant bad karma Thanks for the wonderful article on my latest documentary, The Cover Story: Album Art [“Something Up His Sleeve,” April 12]. I thought it captured the spirit of what the film was about, with one exception. I am a bit perplexed that the article began with a quote from John Lennon’s assassin [Mark David Chapman], “I saw (John Lennon) as a cardboard cutout

on an album cover.” I firmly believe that someone who killed one of the greatest artists of our time does not deserve to have his name mentioned, and especially in an article associated with me. Yoko Ono was most gracious to be interviewed in my film, and to have the name of John’s killer lead off an article where I honor John and Yoko and hundreds of other true artists, is not someone I wanted. Eric Christensen, Mill Valley

Editor’s note: Thanks for writing, Eric, and thanks for sharing your concern over the Chapman quote. While it wasn’t our intension to reopen 30-year-old wounds about the former Beatle’s death, we did believe it to be demonstrative of the power and passion that many of the images from the rock pantheon have elicited. It’s a very wellknown quote, and likely something aficionados of album covers have come across before. We hope it doesn’t put you in a precarious position with Yoko Ono, if that particular Pacific Sun’s masthead happens across her desk anytime soon. That being said, and as you point out in your film, she herself put JL’s bloodied glasses on her Season of Glass album cover less than a year after he was shot—which at the very least is indicative she is a woman not easily prone to shying away from the events of her life, even the terrible ones. Loved your film, by the way.

There, but for the grace of the ‘hot zone’ map, go I... I recently read the story from last month regarding the homeless [“San Rafael Maps Out Homeless ‘Hot Zones’,” April 5] and found that how the San Rafael Police Department was addressing these areas could lead to even more unrest. Finding the balance be-

tween making citizens of San Rafael (and the rest of Marin) aware of the homeless population that indeed exists, as well as avoiding the impression that these unfortunate people are unwanted, is a difficult task to achieve. Luckily, organizations like the Saint Vincent de Paul Society of Marin are kind enough to accommodate these unfortunate people through means of hearty meals and a safe environment to dine. Though this is true, the San Rafael Police Department’s “hot zone” policy for homeless notoriety can be easily misconstrued. There is without a doubt a large demographic of the homeless in San Rafael who use resources such as Saint Vincent’s and go about their business in a normal and orderly fashion. So often are the social tendencies of homeless people labeled as disruptive and psychotic that the many people who just happen to be “down on their luck” are tossed in with the same category of some of these drug addicts and schizophrenics. I also happened to read in the CBS local San Francisco news that the orderly homeless who have been targeted have spoken out about the prejudice. The “good neighbor” policy is definitely a step in the right direction but the voices of these targeted people need to be heard. Dominic Quaranta, Sausalito

‘My optimism wears heavy boots and is loud’—Henry Rollins Regarding Dani Burlison’s story on Earth Day [“Earth Day Marin Shifts Winds,” April 19]. Most Marinites are NOT serious about our environment (but only what is convenient for them to do)—just look at how many SUVs are in this county. I think we’ve just seen that many politicians no longer work for their own constituents. I still admire your optimism. Karen Lehto, San Rafael

Couldn’t you have found something nice from ‘Topaz’? I agree with Barbara Altman’s questioning of the Pacific Sun’s choice for this year’s “Best of Marin” cover. [Editor’s note: we’d considered two of the director’s most famous images for our Hitchcock-themed cover: Janet Leigh’s “scream” shot in Psycho or Cary Grant running from a machinegunning crop duster in North by Northwest. We went with Janet Leigh, and asked readers to share their thoughts about it.] Your defense—“woman in danger or man in danger...”—is superficial. “Woman in danger gets brutally murdered while naked, or man in danger uses his wits and escapes, while saving a woman in danger” is closer, if not as journalistically clever, and supports (rather than refutes) Ms. Altman’s violence and sexism points. I have a deeper question, however: Why was it so important to associate “Best of Marin” with Hitchcock iconography? Associating Hitchcock images of danger and

horror with those enterprises selected as Marin’s Best seems a little back-handed to me. I am disappointed that your creative staff felt they could only go with “choices in iconic Hitchcock imagery.” Those choices were for “The Birds,” if you ask me. Leslie Ditson, Marin

A moment that sends chills down your spine... Just to weigh in on the Janet Leigh Sun cover brouhaha. Speaking of ha-ha, I once used that same image of Janet in the shower on my “Artsy Snarky” (formerly “Slip ’n’ Slide”) TV show. I had Leigh shouting, “Who flushed the toilet?!” No one complained. Ha ha! Craig Whatley, San Rafael

Sticks and stones...but ‘libertarian capitalist’ will never hurt me... I loved the “Marcia issue” of April 19 [“Better to Be Silent and Thought a Fool Than to Write the Editor and Remove All Doubt”]. Glad to be able to continue to “amuse” John Cross of Tiburon; I hope he’s still being amused down the road when he figures out the only people who can afford to live here (when the sales tax is 20 percent and Prop. 13 has been disA few of the “permanent” residents letter-writer Blackman mantled), will predicts will dominate the Marin be those with a permanent of the future. address at Mt. Olivet cemetery, or those who are sucking off the government teat. What have I done for Marin? I’m the voice of the child screaming out “the Emperor has no clothes!” ...following in the fashion of John Stossel and the late and great Fielding Greaves. I give “thanks” also to the reporters who have been removed from their Civic Center office and put into a “closet” because they were too close to the stink at Big Pink and were letting people know about the stench coming from there. As for Martin Russell of Mill Valley [“That Crutch Is Already Covered by the ADA!” April 19], if the description of his job contains the words “waste money/waste time”, then I’ll assume he’s working for the government in some capacity. Any name calling anyone wants to lay on me—let it be “libertarian capitalist.” I don’t object to a profit being made in the private sector, but it’s not the government’s job to take taxpayer money and spread the wealth around for their own benefit and for their friends/relatives/cronies.

Anarchy in the M.A.R.I.N. Mill Valley poet-pacifist Richard Moore believes peace is something worth fighting for by Joanne Williams

P

oet, pacifist and philosophical anarchist Richard O. Moore swam against the current in the early 1940s when, as a student at the University of California, he became the leader of anti-war demonstrations at Sather Gate. In one of his considered acts of pacifism he counseled young men seeking conscientious objector status during WWII. Now advanced in age, with distinctive caterpillar eyebrows and a slender frame, the Mill Valley resident disclaims personal celebrity and maintains an outward look at this puzzling world: “As I grow older with a speed that astonishes me, my love of the world grows clearer without the distractions of choice that trouble the young.” In the postwar era, attracted by the writers, artists and political activists surrounding the poet Kenneth Rexroth, Moore became part of the San Francisco Renaissance poets, and is the last survivor of that legendary group who took inspiration from European modernism, surrealism and Eastern religions and literature. City Lights sprang from this group. Other poets in this Renaissance included Michael McClure, James Broughton, Lew Welch and Lawrence Ferlinghetti. “My political philosophy was not influenced by my years at Cal. My education took place on Wisconsin Street in San Francisco through discussion and reading

with Rexroth and others. My moral education began earlier, in the early ’20s,” says the now 93-year-old. “One night my parents drove me to see a Klan cross burning. When I asked about the strangers in white hoods my mother replied, ‘We don’t talk about it.’ I found the moment disturbing. I knew something was wrong but I didn’t know what.” In 1949 Moore and two others cofounded KPFA. “We built it to foster debate,” he said. Many years later, when making documentaries on a voter registration drive in Louisiana in 1963, and with James Baldwin in San Francisco, Moore began to understand what so upset him when he was 4 or 5. “However, the anarchist label stems strictly from Kenneth [Rexroth] and the Libertarian Circle,” he said. Many contemporary issues disturb him and he remains an ardent pacifist. “The problem of climate change requires drastic measures and involves every part of our economic and political system,” he said. “We may be at or near a point of no return and this is based on hard scientific evidence, not a fanciful ‘end of the world’ scenario.” As for Iran, “When it comes to war, my view is quite simplistic: I oppose the use of force, period. The best argument against pacifism was put forth in World War II by the theologian Reinhold Niebuhr. He maintained that there is an evil so per- 10 >

Bob Weir falls on stage in New York Rock and Roll Hall of Fame musician Bob Weir collapsed last week while in the middle of a show at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York—a bum shoulder took the blame, as the former Grateful Dead guitarist appeared barely able to stand under his own weight. Weir, 65, fell as his band Further—a post-Grateful Dead group formed by Weir and bassist Phil Lesh—played “Unbroken Chain, “ from the Dead’s 1974 album From the Mars Hotel. Online videos of the show reveal that about 20 seconds after Lesh began singing, a noticeably crouched-over Weir stumbled and collapsed on his side at the front of the stage. Further furthered on, as roadies helped the Mill Valley resident to his feet; after huddling momentarily with the crew, Weir resumed playing while sitting in a chair. Weir made it through the 10-minute song from his seat, but it looked like a struggle. After a momentary pause in the show, the band returned to the stage without Weir; Lesh told the crowd his fallen bandmate had been dealing with a strained shoulder. Novato boxing up polystyrene containers Novato residents may not be foaming at the mouth anymore—or anywhere near the mouth, at least as far as polystyrene restaurant containers go. The City Council this week gave a unanimous thumbs up to a city ban on the famously nonbiodegradable packaging typically used as a food container. Polystyrene’s bad “wrap“ is down to the fact that it’s a resilient plastic that takes centuries to biodegrade—winding up on the streets, in the oceans or as a toxin swallowed by animals. The majority of Novato restaurants have already converted to paper, cardboard and recyclable plastics; if the law is approved, eateries will have time to use up their current polystyrene supplies before switching to more environmentally friendly containers. Foam packaging for supermarket meats and fish would be one of the few exemptions to the ban. The Town of Fairfax was ahead of the game when it banned the foam food packaging back in 1993. Mill Valley, San Rafael, Sausalito and the County of Marin have followed suit in recent years. Fines of $100 for a first offense, up to $500 for repeated foam folly, would be levied upon violators. The council will take an official vote May 7; if passed, the ban would become law at the beginning of 2014. Transport services ‘fair to middling‘ report Marin seniors A Marin Civil Grand Jury is honking its horns over the future of senior transportation in Marin. As the county’s plethora of baby boomers grows older, this famously active generation needs to be able to get around town—and the grand jury is lukewarm on the Marin’s senior transportation services. In its report released this week, titled “Senior Transportation: On the Road Again,” the grand jury presents an assessment of the needs of active seniors and whether they’re being satisfactorily met. In a word, the grand jury reports, “the answer is a resounding …maybe.” According to the report, out of Marin’s population of 252,000, more than 42,000—or 17 percent—are over 65. That demographic will also see the largest increase in number in the next 20 years, most dramatically in folks over 80. To avoid social isolation and loss of independence, these folks need to be able to get around, says the grand jury. In its study of Marin’s senior transportation services, the grand jury convened nine focus groups made up of retirees in their late 60s to early 90s. Each focus group had at least one male, but were predominantly comprised of widows in their mid-70s to mid-80s. According to the focus group participants, Marin’s “paratransit needs of physically 10 >

S

tion of J-Date, introduced me to Pompey’s un-erudite eruptions. Usually he advises men, but he also has some dating rules for women. For instance, don’t order healthy food, like salad, on a date: “...more fun to be with a woman who isn’t afraid to get down with a double bacon cheeseburger, one who will pig out every now and then,” proclaims Pompey. Now, mind you, I read this in a Jewish magazine. He also advises that men don’t want women to order pricey wine. I think he mentioned that a $15 glass of vino is expensive. Gosh, Josh, have you considered that the woman may be planning on paying for her own beverage? Ladies, make sure you don’t dress like a librarian and unwittingly make yourself look like a 55-year-old woman in the process, suggests the world-renowned maverick in the dating industry. Thankfully I’m not 55 yet, nor am I a librarian, because clearly these two afflictions would be the end of my chance at finding a fulfilling relationship. JMag readers weighed in mightily and not one of the comments I read was positive. In fact, not long after posting the column, the magazine had a change of heart: The JDate editorial team heard your feedback loud and clear, and has since edited the article to better serve our valued community members. This morning, I searched for the article to check for additional updates, but it appears that JMag removed Pompey’s words of wisdom. Poof. Gone. Should Gosse’s and Pompey’s nonsense be censored? Even I won’t go that far. Sure, their demeaning words are great fodder for this column; however, I believe men of this ilk are a bit dangerous. They chip away at women’s self-confidence and sense of independence. That’s hard to ignore. It’s sad that sexism exists at all, and downright disappointing that it’s alive and well right here in enlightened Marin. In my opinion, Gosse is after money and Pompey is arrogant and seeking fame. Both are schmucks (also my opinion). If I’m wrong, then I challenge both men to become educated about important issues affecting women and to stop spreading immoral, misogynistic messages to the masses. OK. I’m off my high horse now and off to read some Gloria Steinem and Eve Ensler. Roar.< e-mail: nikki_silverstein@yahoo.com

VPatrick O’Brien, a carpenter from Fairfax, was relieved he wore nice underwear to work on Tuesday. Driving to a job site in Bel Marin Keys, he saw people stopped by a pond and he pulled over. “A terrified Chihuahua was running down the street,” Patrick said. “Then, I heard a splash.” The dog was in the water headed for the opposite shore with swans and geese moving toward her. Patrick stripped to his skivvies, jumped in the pond and swam about 100 yards to the pooch. Though she bit him and drew blood, our hero brought her ashore to her guardian. Patrick’s boss, Pat Harney, also a dog lover, paid him for the time he spent rescuing the pooch. All in a ruff day’s work.

WMiriam, a Fairfax resident, was at the Fairfax post office near closing time. To her dismay, she noticed two small children left unattended outside. One child, probably about 2 or 3 years old, was sitting on a bike seat, and a younger child was in a bike trailer. According to Miriam, the father was inside the post office, where he wasn’t able to see the children. The man was in his 30s or 40s, wore a beige shirt paired with Bermuda shorts and sported a bike helmet. Miriam his wife sees this column. We hope hopes both parents read it. Most people we know wouldn’t dream of leaving their dogs unattended outside of a post office, let alone toddlers, even in laid back Fairfax. Get it together, Dad.— Nikki Silverstein

ome of you guys really scare me. Two men with twisted beliefs about women are particularly troublesome. No, I’m not talking about House Speaker John Boehner or radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh, though their drivel is reprehensible. The biggest threat to male/female relations in this country are a couple of self-proclaimed relationship experts, Richard Gosse and Joshua Pompey. Let’s start with San Rafael resident Richard Gosse, the producer of local events such as the Cougar Contest and the Gold Digger Party. I shouldn’t give him any ink, yet I feel compelled to publicly denounce his efforts to make a buck for himself by promoting a social event based on the premise that women are financial parasites. “Most women deny that money is the most important characteristic they seek in a romantic partner. Don’t believe them,” Gosse says in an article titled “In Defense of Gold Diggers.” Gee, I’m glad he’s out there defending women. He does an even better job of advocating for females when he discusses the types of gold diggers. “Predatory Gold Diggers pretend to love wealthy men and value their personal qualities, whereas they are only interested in their money,” says Gosse. “But there is a second, much larger group, Loving Gold Diggers, who value financial security as a top priority in selecting a mate, but also are sincerely attracted to men for their personal qualities. Wealthy Bachelors must be careful to avoid the wrong group.” Rich, single guys take heed. Guru Gosse will guide you to the right group of girls that want to go after your cash. Oh for goodness sake, I’m getting a headache just thinking about the hypocrisy of this man. He attempts to make money by pairing affluent men with supposed money-grubbing gals and he has the audacity to call women gold diggers. Mr. Gosse, does your own greed override any modicum of common decency that you may possess? I pose the same question to Joshua Pompey, who bills himself as dating coach, author and world-recognized expert in the field of online dating. His website also boasts that he is “perhaps the most respected man in the industry and a pioneer in the world of online dating.” I say perhaps not. An article in JMag, an online publica-

He who represents himself ... ...may have a serial killer for a client—the trial of the alleged ‘Alphabet Killer’ begins

Will attorney Naso be able to get defendant Naso off the hook for the grisly murders of multiple women dating back to the 1970s?

A

ccused serial killer Joseph Naso took a bow as he greeted potential jurors this week. The 79-year-old retired photographer from Reno dressed in a suit and tie for the opening of his Marin County Superior Court trial on charges he murdered four prostitutes, two in the 1970s and two in the 1990s, in what the media has dubbed the “alphabet murders.” Each of the slain women had first and last names with matching initial letters. At the trial’s start, Judge Andrew Sweet introduced the defendant to a standingroom only crowd of prospective jurors. Naso rose from his seat at the defense table, turning away from the judge and toward the men and women who came to the San Rafael courtroom to be screened for jury duty. “Good morning,” he said, smiling and pressing his hands together as if praying. Then he bowed deeply. The movement seemed more appropriate for the end of a yoga class than the beginning of a capital trial. But Naso’s approach to the charges against him has been anything but conventional. He faces the death penalty if found guilty of the special circumstance of mur-

Naso raised two children with Judy Naso, and the family lived for years in the affluent Alameda County city of Piedmont. The Marin County district attorney has agreed to prosecute all four first-degree murder cases, though the other three victims were recovered outside of his regular jurisdiction. The naked, decomposed body of Carmen Colon, 22, was found in rural Contra Costa County in 1978. The nude body of Tracy Tafoya, 31, was discovered along a highway next to a cemetery in 1994. Investigators saw a journal in Naso’s house with an entry dated Aug. 6, 1994, the day Tafoya went missing, which says, “Met Tracy—put it to her.” Officers went to Naso’s Reno house in 2010 under the terms of his probation for a shoplifting conviction at a South Lake Tahoe supermarket where he had worked. Probation officers linked him to the slayings after finding what they called “a rape diary” and “a list of dump sites” in his home.

Investigators found a handwritten list of 10 alleged ‘dump sites’ in Naso’s Reno home.

“It’s a pleasure to meet the company of an educated man,� the defendant told the expert on serial killers. “I have one simple question. Would you mind telling us where you grew up and went to school because you look familiar?� When Dietz answered that he was from Pennsylvania, Naso said he had a “premonition� to that effect. “It’s not likely anyone would be inclined to rape a prostitute, correct?� Naso asked. “I’m afraid not,� Dietz replied. “It happens all the time.� Naso argued affably with Dietz about Roggasch’s pantyhose. Dietz noted the young woman was “wearing the pantyhose inside out, indicating a man dressed her.� With Naso posing the questions, the two men discussed cigar-store glamor magazines of the 1930s through 1950s, cheesecake photos, Marilyn Monroe, Bettie Page and the pinup art of Alberto Vargas. “This is maybe what someone enjoys doing, taking pictures of women in lingerie,� Naso told Dietz. “If someone has fantasies of women dressed a certain way, that’s lawful,� the psychiatrist responded. “If someone makes someone unconscious against her will, that’s a crime.� After a courtroom break, during which time Dietz described having a suspected serial killer questioning him as “odd,� Naso began a

different line of questioning. “Did you know as a boy I was a boy scout?â€? “No, I did not,â€? Dietz responded. “And I also coached Little League?â€? “No.â€? “Did you know I was an instructor at an art institute?â€? “Yes, I did.â€? Do you know for a fact that I was a professional photographer taking pictures of families, schools?â€? “I know you said that. I also have no reason to doubt you.â€? Naso then showed Dietz dozens of photographs investigators found in his house. One of them was marked up with drawings over the actual image. “This is motivated doodling, making her appear more like he wants her,â€? Dietz said. “It’s pretty good, isn’t it?â€? Naso said. The judge urged Naso to ask questions rather than make statements. “Are those the kind of photos that could be consistent with a person who might want to harm somebody?â€? Naso asked Dietz. He dodged the question but called the picture “creepy,â€? then added: “It’s not as creepy as the family portrait of the dolls. You overdid the makeup on those.â€? Naso sat up straighter in his seat, grinning and looking ďŹ lled with pride.<

A fresh coat of paint is perfect for decorators of all stripes.

A

s Marinites approach another summer, when children spend so much time outside—whether simply playing in the yard or further out at a daycamp in West Marin—it may be the time is right to give your home a makeover. I’d love to do some remodeling but the cost is prohibitive. However, I have found some low-cost (and sometimes free) ways you can give your house a makeover. Clean Out the Clutter Real estate agents consider clutter one of the main reasons many homes don’t sell. If you’re selling your house, or just realize you have too much stuff sitting around the house, now’s the time to tackle it and maybe sell a few things online or even have a sale this summer. Just getting rid of a few odds and ends can make your house look that much neater and bigger too. A Cheap Makeover If I’m getting bored with a room but don’t have enough in the budget for a huge makeover, one thing I always turn to is paint. Even top-quality paint can be purchased for around $20 or less. You’d be surprised at just how great and clean a room looks with a new coat of paint or

even a different color added to its walls. Move Them Around I get bored very easily and sometimes I sit in a room and start to think about ways I’d like to change it. Some of my ideas would break the bank, but an inexpensive way to make everything look new again is to rearrange stuff. Last year I decided to move the two couches in the living room around and put the side table on the other side of the room. Sometimes I move photos and bits and pieces from one table to another. And one way I’ve found that can really make a room look new is to move stuff from one room to another. Every time the clocks change in spring and fall take a few minutes to change things around. That way you can have a warmand cold-weather look to your home. Have a Swap Party You’ve heard of people holding clothes swap parties—how about swap parties for things like vases, paintings, etc.? You might just find something you’ve been admiring in a friend’s house is something she really hates and wants to get rid of. Curb Appeal If you are thinking about selling your

Candles can be an illuminating design addition.

home one of the first things that greets a buyer is your yard. The idea is to make them think if they moved in they’d have very little work to do. So trim hedges and shrubs, cut out dead branches and pull up the weeds. And one thing that can really be inviting to any visitor is a water feature. They used to cost a fortune but you can set one up on just about any budget these days. Windows and Carpets Two things that most people notice when they come to your house are the carpets and windows. It doesn’t take much to clean the windows and screens, and most supermarkets rent carpet-cleaning machines. And to make sure things don’t get dirty all over again, keep one pair of shoes just for wearing exclusively inside the house. Consignment Stores There are lots of consignment stores in the area where I live and one’s just for household items and furniture. Last year I took some items in there to consign and while I waited for the assistant to look them over I did some browsing. I was just amazed at all the great stuff people no longer wanted and everything was reasonably priced. If you’re looking to decorate a home quickly and cheaply these are the places to head. Little Touches, Big Impact I love candles sitting around the house. Some I use them for fragrance, some just for decoration. Grouped together or used singly they’re an inexpensive way to give any room a makeover. Currently I’m using candles in my living room but I’m very tempted to light them when I indulge in one of my spa evenings. The thing I like best about candles: price. And that they last a long time for the money. You will create the most drama by arranging candles in odd numbers and in varied heights. Find slow burning and long-lasting ones, allowing you to enjoy the magic for longer. < Got a home-design tip? Email letters@pacificsun.com.

Viva la Mexico! Marin toasts Mexican victory over French with ‘tequila-infused bash’... by Pat Fu sco

TIME TO CELEBRATE America’s favorite Mexican holiday! Cinco de Mayo brings two kinds of parties to Marin this week, one a typically tequila-infused bash, the other a chance to taste homemade ethnic foods. The Cantina in Mill Valley will get an early start May 3-4 with its famous Beach Party where the parking lot is covered with sand and tables are set up for drinking and eating and the beat of live music. Could almost be Cabo. 851 East Blithedale, 415/381-1070...Out on the coast at the Point Reyes Dance Palace, a Sunday, May 5, benefit for Gallery Route One’s Latino Photography Project (5:30-8pm) will include a mole dinner with regional sauces cooked by locals. It will include chicken, rice and beans, salad, handmade tortillas and nonalcoholic Mexican drinks; a vegan mole will be available. Alcoholic drinks will be for sale, as well. Cost is $5-$20. Call for reservations: 415/663-1075 or 663-1347. NEW MARKET, NEW MARKET Early May also begins a happy new chapter for Sausalito’s food shoppers with the return of a natural foods store to Caledonia Street where the old Real Foods Co. site has been empty for two years. Former manager of the venue Adam Driver is opening Driver’s Market, stocking locally grown and locally sourced products. Remodeling the building was a family project for his brothers; his father is an investor along with food business veteran Paul Geffner (San Francisco’s Escape from New York Pizza and Purity Organic Juices). 415/729-9582. LOCAL GIRL MAKES good (coffee). Caitlin McCarthy-Garcia of San Rafaelbased Equator Coffees & Teas took first place honors in the 2013 Roasters Choice Competition held last month in Boston by the Specialty Coffee Association of America. Her entry? Colombia Cerro Azul Geisha AAA, said to be “smooth and syrupy with lush floral-tones, sweet honeysuckle, lavender and jasmine [with] notes of orange and lemon zest.� MOTHER OF ALL DAYS As a chef friend wrote on Facebook, “Mother’s Day is coming up and you know what that means...� Get those reservations made, whether your mama prefers to sip a designer cocktail before a sophisticated dinner or linger over a brunch buffet at her favorite restaurant. I have two suggestions for alternative, outdoorsy ways to spend time on May 12. This is the 50th year for the Mother’s Day Barbecue at

Cinco de Mayo is in recognition of the 1861 Battle of Puebla, in which a small Mexican army crushed the massive French forces in a town on the outskirts of Mexico City. The victory became symbolic of the country’s three-year struggle against French occupation.

Audubon Canyon Ranch where families flock (sorry) to the orchard in Volunteer Canyon for grilled chicken or vegetarian quiche lunches (11am-3pm). Before or after eating there are chances to take guided nature hikes or watch the nesting egrets in the tall trees at the Martin Griffin Preserve on the Bolinas Lagoon. Cost is $25, $12 for those under 12; wine, beer, and soft drinks will be available. Reservations: www.marinaudubon.org ...Get an early start on the day with a hike or bike ride to West Point Inn on Mt. Tam for a pancake breakfast at the landmark resting place on the trail (9am-1pm). $10 —$5 for children—gets you vittles with live music. 415/388-9955. RESTAURANT NEWS Rachel Griffin of Chicken Diva pop-up at Whistlestop Wheels’ Jackson Cafe in San Rafael has lost her lease, but not calling it quits. She’s looking for another home for her cooking and leaving this one with a Sunday, May 11, dinner for fans. Expect Southern food plus entertainment at Poetry and Poultry (6pm). Cost: $69 per person by ticket admission only. Reserve at 415/259-1253... Chipotle Mexican Grill (San Rafael, Novato) is raising the bar with the introduction of margaritas made to order, using either Patron or Sauza tequilas, replacing its original ready-mix. Paris to Provence: Childhood Memories of Food and France will be the focus of a Cooks with Books dinner Thursday, May 16, (6:30pm) at Left Bank in Larkspur. The book by writer Ethel Brannum and photographer Sara Remington will be celebrated with authentic flavors from chef Fabrice Marcon. Cost: $110 /$160 per couple; includes meal, wine, tax, tips, and one signed copy. Reservations: http:// bookpassage.com.< Contact Pat at patfusco@sonic.net.

or me, San Rafael-based AlterTheater’s just-opened production of Ann Brebner’s The Dead Girl presents a special challenge. New plays are always more difficult to judge than established ones. Knowledge of the author’s past work helps, but what if he/she has a short resume? Although certain conventions have evolved over the last couple of thousand years about how plays should be constructed, playwrights have frequently found considerable success by breaking the rules. Finally, like music and dance, theater is a collective art that depends to a great extent on the skill of its performers, directors and designers. All of this means that subjective elements can have a huge impact. So, now we come to the “world premiere” A touching loss, in ‘The Dead Girl.’ of The Dead Girl. Judged purely as dramatic literature, Brebner’s play is a decidAlterTheater’s cast features strong edly mixed affair.

Tarantino ‘unchained’ What a clever bit of subversion for Tarantino to make German the language of escape from the antebellum South—the safe code used between visiting foreigner and plantation slave to plan her rescue from the land of good manners and three-fifths humanity. An overlooked Di Caprio puts a hammer to his critics in ‘Django Unchained.’ perk to Tarantino’s encyclopedic knowledge of the movies is his assurance when rubbing our faces in hypocrisy, and DJANGO UNCHAINED returns us, more than ever and fittingly for QT, to the crime of slavery. Christoph Waltz re-ups to play bounty hunter Dr. Schultz, teamed with freed slave Django Freeman (Jamie Foxx) to get the biggest bounty of his career: Freedom for Django’s wife Brunhilde (Kerry Washington), who’s been sold into slavery on the infamous Candyland plantation. To get there Django will have to walk right into the snakes’ nest posing as that most odious of characters, a black slave trader, one specializing in “Mandingo” fights. Atop the Candyland pyramid is Calvin Candie, played by Leonardo Di Caprio with a deep-dyed menace he’s finally arrived at after all those years of trying. Naturally the treatment has been called racist and exploitative, but if Tarantino is right in predicting that Django will become a rite of passage for young black males, then cinema is all the better for it. —Richard Gould and Restaurant, 4 Bayview St., San Rafael. 457-3993. panamahotel.com.

1 ½ year old neutered male Jack Russell Terrier mix Cute little Sailor was timid, nervous and snappy when he was brought to us as a stray with serious orthopedic issues. After surgery, he started coming out of his shell and slowly began to trust people again. Now, once he gets to know you, he is a happy, loving little guy who wants nothing more than to hang out in a nice warm lap. A home with older teenagers would be best for him. He also might be able to live with another small dog as long as meal times are well managed. Sailor is a charming, sensitive boy who just needs a chanceSailor is available for adoption at the Marin Humane Society www.MarinHumaneSociety.org or Contact the Adoption Center (closed Mondays) 415-506-6225 www.MarinHumaneSociety.org

››ADViCE GODDESS® This woman and I were involved 13 years ago, before I met my wife, but she was married then. She got divorced and moved away. We reconnected recently on Facebook, and I discovered she’s now only 20 miles away. I told her I’m happily married and I’ve never cheated on my wife, but I would risk everything for her and want to meet her for an intimate encounter. (She and I had great sex, far better than I have with my wife.) She said she still has feelings for me but is happily married and couldn’t cheat on her husband because she would feel “too guilty.” She says he is her “rock” and has done so much for her, including taking her and her three kids in during the ordeal of her divorce. I’m perplexed. She cheated on her first husband with me, and we had lots of fun. I thought the leopard couldn’t change its spots. How could it be OK for her to cheat then and not now? —Spurned

A:

It’s so annoying when a woman lets a little thing like a lifelong commitment get in the way of providing you with an hour and a half of better-quality sex. No, a leopard does not wake up in the morning and think, “Maybe I’ll do paisley today.” Humans, on the other hand, have an irritating tendency to fail to conform to pat aphorisms. For example, this woman, who, in the past, has provided you with some seriously excellent adulterous sex, now refuses to run off to Goodwill to get back her leopard-print blouse with the scarlet A on it. Amazingly, she feels it would be wrong to reward a guy who’s “done so much” for her by doing you whenever you can both sneak out for a nooner. As for why she cheated in the past, maybe she was young and narcissistic and thought being unhappily married was enough of an excuse to be happily adulterous. She’s since picked herself up a set of ethics—maybe after seeing the ravages that conscience-free living can cause on husbands and children. And tempted as she may be, she seems to realize that the best way to avoid going around feeling all queasy with guilt is to avoid sexual multitasking: Trying to gaze in one man’s eyes like you love him while trying to remember what time you were supposed to meet the other man at the motel. Economist Robert H. Frank explains in Passions Within Reason that moral behavior seems to be driven by the emotions. Guilt, clearly, has worked for your former cheatums, and Frank sees love as a “commitment device” that bonds people beyond what would be in their sheer self-interest (like running off to the first opportunity for better sex that moves back to town). In other words, if you focus on what you’re grateful for about your wife and engage in little loving touches and gestures, you can reinforce what you have—which seems fairer than rewarding her for making you happy by giving her believable excuses for your disappearances. Remember, they’re called marriage vows, not marriage suggestions—as in, you don’t get to live according to “Till the prospect of really great sex do us part, but only for an afternoon, and I wouldn’t even think of it if she weren’t double-jointed.”

Q:

I met a girl online, and we exchanged some email and planned to meet for happy hour. About three hours before, she texted me, “Sorry, have 2 cancel.” That was the last I ever heard from her. I’m not bothered by being texted (since we didn’t have a relationship), but at what point do you owe somebody more than the briefest possible blow-off? —Prematurely Dumped

A:

Sometimes the technology at hand demands that a person send an abbreviated message—like when their chisel breaks just as they’re etching the last letter of “cancel” into the stone tablet. Sometimes, the brevity is the message. For example, in the briefest way, this woman told you everything you need to know about her: “I’m not about to type out eight words of explanation just to preserve some stranger’s dignity.” In Internet dating, because you’re meeting face to online dating profile, the coldly calculating find it easier to treat you like you’re just a bunch of digital information that has the possibility of becoming a boyfriend. Being kind and polite takes very little—just some excuse that suggests you matter enough as a human to put some effort into blowing you off. So, this woman didn’t need to give you the real reason, just some reason—“realizing I’m not over my ex so sorry”—instead of simply unsubscribing to you and your offer of a date like you were unwanted email from Lyndon LaRouche or the Pantyliner of the Month Club.< © Amy Alkon, all rights reserved. www.advicegoddess.com.
