››LETTERS ‘One of our nation’s best newspapers’

In regard to the Pacific Sun’s 50th anniversary edition [“A Place, and the ‘Sun’,” June 7], kudos to one of my mentors and editors, Steve McNamara. You see, I was born with printer’s ink in my veins. My favorite toy back in 1945 was my late father’s secretary Dorothy’s typewriter back in Chicago when I was only 5 years old. His nephew, Steve Warshaw, my first cousin, was a reporter for the Chicago Sun and in San Francisco for the Examiner and the now defunct San Francisco News-Call Bulletin. Steve Warshaw and his wife, Joan, resided in Sausalito and pointed me in the direction of Lytton Square in downtown Mill Valley and told me to “knock a door down” and see if I could join a new journalism task force they had heard about. Back in 1975, it was the brainchild of Steve McNamara, Don Stanley and Alice Yarish, and they were joined by the likes of Joanne Williams, Eve Pell and Linda Xiques. I was honored to have been selected as a member of the task force. We did in-depth task force reports on every move, day in and day out, week in and week out of the Marin County District Attorney’s office under Bruce Bales, the newly formed Golden Gate Transit District, and the Board of Directors of the Marin County Community College District! The idea of the Pacific Sun’s journalism task force was later copied by a prominent weekly newspaper in Canada. Steve McNamara sent me to cover the Democratic National Convention in New York’s Madison Square Garden, the Montreal

Olympics, and the Republican National Convention in Kansas City during the summer of 1976. My proudest memory happened as I was walking toward the Kemper Arena in Kansas City, when I was approached by Tom Wicker, longtime award-winning reporter, editor and columnist with The New York Times. My Pacific Sun press credentials were hanging from my neck and he reached out to shake my hand and said, “You are covering this conclave for one of our nation’s best newspapers.” Jeffrey Gale, Novato

‘Pacific Sun’ fan Tom Wicker was renowned for his coverage of the JFK assassination, and earning a spot on Richard Nixon’s ‘master list’ of political enemies.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but war with Iran will hurt everybody

Name-calling is too often the tactic used by those who have neither the facts nor a rational argument. Abe Jacob’s invective-filled letter [“A Culture ‘Incompatible’ With Western Tradition of Needing Its Oil,” May 24] attacking David Harris for “spewing anti-Semitic nonsense” [in the story “Drawing a New Line in the Sand,” May 10] was not only absurd, it

was reprehensible. Had Jacob attended Harris’ talk in Mill Valley on May 3 he would have heard Harris refer to Israel only once, and that was to say the U.S. should not let Israel determine American foreign policy. It was a reasonable statement in view of the fact that before the 2012 U.S. presidential election Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeatedly pressured the Obama administration to impose harsher sanctions on Iran and threaten military action if Iran did not comply. In speeches before Congress and on American television Netanyahu urged the Obama administration to set “clear red lines,” and said the U.S. had “no moral right” to restrain Israel if Iran exceeded those lines. Harris in his talk wisely pointed out that a policy of ever-harsher sanctions on Iran was likely to boomerang by hardening the position of its leaders and uniting the Iranian people behind them. The same conclusion was reached last April by a panel of former high-ranking officials that included Lee Hamilton of Obama’s intelligence advisory board; Anne-Marie Slaughter, Obama’s first director of policy planning; and Richard Lugar, former Republican Senator from Indiana. The experts concluded, as Harris did, that the only rational approach to dealing with Iran’s nuclear ambitions was through diplomacy and patient negotiations. Whatever one thinks of Iran’s government—which Harris condemned as “an intolerant theocracy,” a war with that country would cause immeasurable human suffering and intensify hatred of America throughout a large part of the world. It would delay, not end, Iran’s nuclear development, and Americans would become less, not more, secure. As Harris has pointed out, we lived with a nuclear-armed Soviet Union for 50 years. If necessary we can do the same with Iran. Finally, many members of the audience that warmly applauded Harris were Jewish, including me. Unlike Jacob we know the difference between an anti-Semite and a person who speaks the truth. Rachelle Marshall, Mill Valley

Waiter... there’s an endocrine disruptor in my soup!

Scientists have become very alarmed about pervasive human exposure to chemicals known as “endocrine disruptors.” Even extremely tiny amounts of these substances can make people, particularly fetuses and young children, vulnerable to numerous dangerous consequences—including eventually developing hormone-related cancers, diabetes, attention deficit disorders, fertility problems, thyroid disorders, damaged reproductive function and even obesity. As I’ve previously written [“He Who Trades a Lack of Cancer for Fire Safety Deserves Neither,” May 24], after first mixing poisonous glyphosate with a chemical “surfactant” to increase its toxic effectiveness, the Marin Municipal Water District plans to spray the mixture—in large quantities again and again—on the Marin watershed that’s the 6 PACIFIC SUN JUNE 14 - JUNE 20, 2013

source of most of our drinking water. Besides its other dangerous attributes, recent research indicates that glyphosate is itself an endocrine disruptor. And what is MMWD’s own consulting firm’s “best case” for glyphosate safety? The majority of research showing glyphosate’s “safety” has been done by primary manufacturer Monsanto itself—not exactly an objective, unbiased participant. And the water district’s consultant admitted that “the toxicity of glyphosate when used in conjunction with different surfactants remains largely unexplored” and that no information is available on glyphosate’s various levels of toxicity— hardly a ringing safety endorsement. Independent research has demonstrated that glyphosate can persist in heavy clay soils for many months after spraying. Any unexpected rain can wash it down toward our drinking water supply. Further, plants that are killed by glyphosate preserve its poison in their dead roots, stems and leaves—from which it can be reactivated as this plant matter decays. There are also numerous dangers of other unintended consequences: According to the research of an emeritus professor of plant pathology, glyphosate kills a great many soil microbes—so the surviving ones create a highly unbalanced soil ecology, causing pathogens to thrive that affect both plants and animals; this can also make it impossible for native plants to thrive, even in the unlikely event that the repetitive spraying ultimately eliminates the broom—so, forget about increasing plant biodiversity! And ecologists have warned that glyphosate’s acknowledged toxicity to amphibians can lead to a proliferation of the mosquito larvae they normally eat, inadvertently increasing our exposure to mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus. MMWD’s proposed maximum annual glyphosate use (on a total of 300 acres) amounts to 750 pounds—the equivalent of 1,500-3,000 gallons of the 2.5 percent dilution in which the common glyphosate product Roundup is typically sold. Does that sound like a trivial amount, with minimal risks of human and animal exposure? I think not. Due to space limitations, I will defer discussion of viable alternatives to spraying until my next letter. Alexander DE-Toxics Institute, Fairfax

C’mon... what’s not to trust about Monsanto’s glyphosatesafety research?

‘You scare me...’ Alleged killer Naso ‘freaking out’ potential jurors by Ronnie Co he n

A

ccused serial killer Joseph Naso has been interrogating potential Marin County jurors and stunning them with blunt, sometimes odd and often rambling questions for the past two weeks—as he tries to find 12 men and women to fairly judge whether he murdered four prostitutes. Acting as his own attorney, the 79-yearold Reno photographer with no legal background frequently incited strong emotions when he directly questioned perspective jurors in Superior Court in San Rafael. “I don’t like you,” one jury candidate told him twice this week. Naso faces the death penalty if found guilty of at least two of four first-degree murder charges in the “Alphabet” murders. Each of the slain women—Roxene Roggasch and Carmen Colon in the 1970s and Pamela Parsons and Tracy Tafoya in the 1990s—had first and last names with matching initial letters. Naso, who is being held without bail in the Marin County Jail, dressed in a blue suit and tie to meet potential jurors in court this week and last. “Is there any one of you jurors that feel because of my looks I might be guilty?” he asked the first group. “I know I’m not Clark Gable. But what’s one man’s opinion? So anyway, here I am. What you see is what you get.” Naso admits liking to photograph women in nylons, garters and high heels but denies killing anyone.

He and two prosecuting attorneys are scheduled to pick 12 jurors and nine alternates to begin hearing the quadruple murder case on June 17. The trial could continue until mid-November. Roggasch, an 18-year-old prostitute, was the first of the four victims to be slain. Dressed only in inside-out pantyhose, her body was discovered off Sir Francis Drake Boulevard near White’s Hill, between Lagunitas and Fairfax, in 1977. An analysis performed after Naso’s 2010 arrest on other charges found DNA in semen taken from Roggasch’s pantyhose matched Naso’s, court documents say. Nylon stockings were wrapped around Roggasch’s mouth and neck and stuffed into her mouth when her body was found in Marin County. DNA matching Naso’s exwife’s was found on one pair of stockings. Naso raised two children with his exwife, Judy Naso, for a time in the wellheeled East Bay city of Piedmont. Judy Naso is expected to testify for the prosecution. Prosecutors contend that Naso drugged the victims before raping or trying to rape them, then killed them and discarded their bodies in remote locations. They will argue Naso photographed some of the women after he knocked them out or killed them. On Monday, Naso hunched over the defense table, a purple velour pillow cushioning his achy back against a courtroom chair. He removed his reading glasses and looked 10 > across the room into the jury box at

Gang ‘colors’ grounded at County Fair Bay Area street gangs be warned: the petting zoo and Wiggly Worm roller coaster are not for you. In effort to prevent gang members from displaying their “colors” at this year’s Marin County Fair, the Board of Supervisors this week unanimously approved a dress code barring gang insignia at the July event. In a report to the supes requesting the dress code, fair director Jim Farley said, “[fair officials] have reason to believe that a particular criminal street gang may be interested in attending the Marin County Fair” next month while displaying their gang street insignia. “History, both here and elsewhere,” continued Farley, “shows that when a street gang ‘flies its colors,’ this often results in rival street gangs engaging in physical altercations.” Farley described the request for the ordinance as “urgent”—meaning such an ordinance would go into effect upon adoption by at least four of the five supervisors. The ordinance won’t prevent gang members from attending the July 3 to 8 fair and enjoying the musical hijinks of Weird Al Yankovic or the lofty folk tunes of the Kingston Trio, but it would mean security officials, trained in spotting gang signs, can require attendees to remove or cover jackets, belt buckles or other apparel used for flying one’s colors. Brandt to run for supe; Heller to step away from council San Rafael election news: Declaring herself a challenger for the District 1 supervisor seat up for grabs next year, San Rafael resident Carol Brandt filed papers this week to run in the June 2014 election. She’ll be trying to unseat incumbent Susan Adams, assuming the Marinwood resident seeks a fourth term; Adams is also facing a possible recall election which would take place just prior to that, if opponents can muster enough signatures to force it to a vote. Brandt and Adams squared off for the District 1 seat in 2002, with Adams squeaking past Brandt by fewer than 200 votes in the primary before Adams went on to unseat Paul Cohen in the general election. Also this week, longtime San Rafael City Councilwoman Barbara Heller announced she would not seek re-election when her term is up in November. Heller made the announcement June 11 at a joint press conference with former planning commission member Maribeth Bushey-Lang, who was there to announce her candidacy for one of the two San Rafael City Council seats on the November ballot. Heller was first elected to the council in 1993. Night Stalker dies at Marin General Richard Ramirez—the Los Angeles-area serial killer known in the media as the “Night Stalker”—died of “natural causes” Friday, June 7, at 9:10am at Marin General Hospital, according to San Quentin prison officials. The death row inmate was 53 and reportedly suffering from liver failure. Ramirez had been on San Quentin’s death row since 1989, after he was convicted of 13 counts of murder, five attempted murders, 14 sexual assaults and 11 burglaries which mostly took place over a two-year rampage in 1984 and 1985. Ramirez earned his “Night Stalker” sobriquet due to his modus operandi of sneaking into victims’ homes under the cloak of early morning darkness—and strangling, shooting or cutting the throat of his victims. Satanic pentagram symbols were left at some of the crime scenes. He was captured in 1985 after a seven-car police chase; while fleeing his pursuers, Ramirez attempted a last-ditch car-jacking, but was wrestled down by several citizens who subdued him and beat him with a pipe. While Ramirez’s death was reported as from “natural causes,” the Marin County Coroner division of the sheriff’s office is taking a closer look. According to the coroner’s office,

Training Supervisor Todd Jurek was working with Danielle Alvarado, a blindfolded Apprentice Instructor, and O’Neil, a beautiful yellow Labrador guide dog. The trio was on Fourth near E when a car jumped the curb behind them and continued to drive in reverse on the sidewalk.

WWith throngs of beachgoers and Mountain Play audience members attempting to exit Highway 101 at Stinson Beach last weekend, a major traffic snarl developed. North and southbound exits backed up, making it impossible for drivers on the freeway to merge safely into the exit lanes. Self-entitled motorists simply stopped in the middle of 101 and waited to cut in front of another vehicle. We ought to throttle those drivers. Where were the California Highway Patrol officers? We’re not certain, but we think they might have been stuck at Starbucks in Sausalito, because traffic on Bridgeway was at a standstill due to the freeway mess. Come on CHP, we need some traffic control on 101 during the busy weekend beach days before a serious accident occurs. — Nikki Silverstein

Water District tapping into a watershed support group The Marin Municipal Water District has its juices flowing about creating a “friends” group to help support “vital but under-funded” Mt. Tam watershed protection programs. According to a MMWD press release, the proposed “Tamalpais Lands Collaborative” would include the water district, along with other land management agencies around the mountain, including the Marin County Open Space District, California State Parks and the National Park Service. The collaborative would be used to address “natural resource management, visitor experience, volunteer opportunities and other inherently cross-jurisdictional needs in a more efficient and holistic way,” according to the MMWD. Water district officials say they’ve been “in conversation” with the Golden Gate National Park Conservancy—a “friends” support group for Golden Gate National Park, and could create the Tamalpais Lands Collaborative as a separate wing of the GGNPC. Water District officials are hosting a public workshop to discuss the proposal and get community feedback on Wednesday, June 19, from 6 to 8pm, at the Marin Art and Garden Center, located at 30 Sir Francis Drake Blvd. in Ross. Supes grant $250,000 to Planned Parenthood Planned Parenthood in San Rafael had a happy delivery this week—in the form of $250,000 from the County of Marin to go toward the reopening of its H Street location. Planned Parenthood provides cancer exams, HIV testing, contraception, prenatal care and other women’s health services. Abortion services account for about 3 percent of the organization’s work. The County grant, unanimously approved by the Board of Supervisors this week, is for $200,000, in addition to $50,000 from Supervisor Susan Adams’s discretionary “community service” fund. One vocal Planned Parenthood opponent at the supervisors’ hearing objected to the approval of the grant and compared abortion to the Nazis’“final solution.” Up until 2011, the women’s health services at H Street operated as San Rafael Planned Parenthood, but when its Bay Area umbrella organization, Planned Parenthood Golden Gate, found itself in the middle of an administrative and financial fiasco, the national organization of Planned Parenthood Federation of America stripped it of its affiliate status. Without its affiliation to Planned Parenthood, the San Rafael clinic quickly went out of business. Planned Parenthood Shasta Pacific, which has operated a clinic the past two years in Mill Valley, is the affiliate resurrecting the San Rafael location—set to open June 19—and the total cost for the move has been estimated at nearly $3.3 million. Planned Parenthood has maintained a presence in Marin in one form or another since 1930, when it was known as the Marin Maternal Health Association. Novato Theater Company setting a new stage The wandering Novato Theater Company has finally found a home—at least for its upcoming season. The new 99-seat spot is tucked alongside Highway 101 near the Hamilton neighborhood, at 5420 Nave Drive, in the building that most recently housed Playtime Safari. NTC has been making a name for itself—under multiple names—since 1919. In 2004, the troupe changed its nom de plume from the Novato Community Players to the current Novato Theater Company. The Community Players performed for decades at the Novato Community House—but when the red-painted city administration buildings were shuttered for seismic retrofitting in 2005, the Novato Community Players found itself without a permanent stage. Redubbed the Novato TheaterCompany, the ensemble worked out of the NTC Playhouse on Ignacio Boulevard from 2006 to 2012. “With a 94-year history behind us and a new theater space, we think of ourselves as the oldest start-up in Marin,” quips NTC Board President Sandi Rubay. The company is readying to pull the curtain back on its 2013-14 season—even though renovations at its Nave Drive location are still underway. (You may not find a lobby, but the stage, seating, lights and sets are ready for action, according to NTC officials.) The first production of the season, The Lion in Winter, is directed by Kris Neely and runs from Aug. 30 through Sept. 22. October ushers in a production of Gypsy, a tale of the ultimate traveling stage mother. Gypsy runs Oct. 18 through Nov. 10 and is followed by Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, set to take the stage from Feb. 14 through March 9.

‘M any hunger-worn outcasts close their eyes in our bare streets at such times, who, let their crimes have been what they may, can hardly open them in a more bitter world.’ —Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist

W

hile the world isn’t as bitter a place as it was in 19th century London, the author’s demands for humanity and dignity for the “outcasts” on the street still reverberate today. In Marin, according to recent surveys, homelessness is on the decline—but to walk the streets of downtown San Rafael, any such decline seems on a slow pace at best. Typically empathetic Marinites are at a loss for solutions: San Rafael business owners worry it will affect the bottom line; city and county officials tread

lightly on where to spread their sympathies within a vocal electorate; and homeless advocates continue to champion a seemingly unsolvable cause. The majority of homeless, meanwhile, remain model citizens—while a few incorrigibles among them give the housed and un-housed, alike, headaches. In this edition, we take a look at some of the issues surrounding Marin’s homeless—from the City of San Rafael’s various initiatives to deal with the problem, to the County’s many nonprofit services and their clients, and finally to a hopeful story of one struggling street youth whose eyes, in the words of Dickens, may no longer have to open each morning upon a bitter world. —Jason Walsh, editor

San Rafael don’t have an easy life. “Their days are difficult, and they’re not looking for police interaction.” The placemats and the idea of alerting people to the hot zones, stemmed from a charrette planning process last fall. The process gathers public officials, businesses—as many stakeholders as possible—and allows them to contribute ideas in a planning effort that includes everyone’s input. One of those inputs, naturally, came from the city of San Rafael. Like it or not, the city has a large chunk of social services for the homeless within its boundaries. Because the social services are in the city, so are the homeless. San Rafael Mayor Gary Phillips says San Rafael is shouldering an unbalanced load in providing those services, which act as a magnet. But Mary Kay Sweeney, executive director of Homeward Bound, says that may not be accurate. “There are homeless people everywhere,” she says. “They don’t come because of the services necessarily. It’s not like there’s this nationwide effort to say that we have great services in San Rafael, come on over. It doesn’t work that way.” Phillips maintains it’s undeniable that San Rafael is assuming the most responsibility for dealing with homeless issues in Marin. And that’s an unfair burden because homelessness is a countywide issue. “I think San Rafael has stepped up to address the issue,” says Phillips. “We would like to see the participation of all the cities to address the concern. It is incumbent on other cities to recognize the need and the role they can play.” Phillips says he’s not dictating what participation other cities should engage in, just that they should do more than their current level of engagement. “If social services are needed, we should all carry the load to some degree.” Whether concentrating services in one

small geographical area is better than dispersing them throughout the county is a debate that has no clear-cut answer. But Paquette says the undeniable truth is that San Rafael is the county seat and the largest city in Marin. “When you’re homeless, it makes sense to be in a place where there are the most people, the most services, the most things to do.” And being in a city that has the most people, “is the easiest way to avoid calling attention to yourself. It makes sense if you have no place and you are roaming to be in the largest city in the county.” Sweeney says that having social services concentrated in San Rafael means homeless people must gravitate to the services and thus to San Rafael because they may not have transportation options that allow them to move easily about the county. Homeless people may not have the financial capability to store all their goods and take public transportation, she notes. That tends to keep people in the large urban areas where the services are located. But Sweeney, whose organization is the largest provider of services to the homeless in Marin and operates the Mill Street Center homeless shelter in San Rafael, says the county—and the cities—could create service centers spread throughout Marin where homeless people could take showers and do laundry. “People would no doubt use those services,” she says. In the 1990s, says Sweeney, in the county’s plan to end homelessness, a suggestion surfaced that Marin should have multiple centers for homeless services. But because of costs that were determined to be prohibitive, the county and the cities “couldn’t pull it off.” Phillips says that what’s happened is that San Rafael has done its part. Now, he says, other cities should join the effort. There’s no question that the major- 12 > JUNE 14 - JUNE 20, 2013 PACIFIC SUN 11

< 11 Fourth Street blues ity of the county’s homeless live in San Rafael. In the 2011 one-day count of the homeless population, a count that takes place every two years, there were 1,220 homeless people. Additionally, the count found 4,179 people “precariously housed,” a population that may need substantial social services. The number of homeless people in 2011 showed a decline from the 1,770 people counted in 2009. Programs, some of which were funded by federal stimulus dollars, accounted from some of the decline. Changing program mechanisms that include finding homes for people as a first priority before offering other services accounted for some of the decline. The county now is tallying the numbers for the 2013 homeless count. Larry Meredith, director of Marin Health and Human services, says the results of the 2013 count will go public this month. Phillips says he understands that the number of homeless has declined again, at least in San Rafael, but he has his doubts. “I think the most recent count isn’t right” if it shows the population has decreased. “Something’s wrong” if that’s the case,

he says. “That’s not my observation.” In the 2011 count, 45 percent of the “unsheltered or other homeless populations” were located in San Rafael. Novato accounted for 14 percent of the homeless population. Homeless people live in all areas of the county, but those two cities account for the majority of the population. Another area that often is overlooked is the anchor-out community in Sausalito, a city that accounted for 5 percent of the homeless in 2011. The county has embarked on programs to aid that population, according to Meredith. Jason Satterfield is the county’s new policy analyst for homelessness. He’s been on the job about six months. He says the county has embraced the model in which services are dispersed. “As we develop programs, we are increasingly using a scattered-site approach, which means that when we focus on providing services such as rental assistance, we encourage providers to assist people in all parts of the county. Increasingly we are less focused on creating [centralized] facilities and more on creating a broader net of services across the county.”

That dispersal helps the homeless avoid the disruption of having to travel across the county for services. Meredith says it also “means that no single community is getting a disproportionate density.” When it comes to housing, a scattered-site approach “means that to some extent the homeless are invisible in the community, and we think that’s a way to help them integrate into the broader community.” Paquette at St. Vincent says her organization’s experience dealing with the city of San Rafael is positive and has undergone “tremendous progress in understanding their priorities as well has them understanding ours.” Paquette says St. Vincent already has a dispersed meal distribution. The organization provides food in West Marin and in the Canal district in San Rafael. It also has a meal program in southern Marin. “We are everywhere; the need is everywhere.” The Marin Organizing Committee has played a key role, along with St. Vincent and congregations in the county, in creating a winter rotating shelter program. The Organizing Committee now is developing plans

for a permanent shelter. The county is working on a revision to the plan to end homelessness. Meredith says that when it’s ready, it will go to the Board of Supervisors for review. He says the plan also will go to “city councils from Sausalito to Novato, so everyone has a chance to see the complexities and tragedies that are embedded in this American problem.” In his interactions with cities in the county Meredith has found a “general feeling” that they understand they can do more to help the effort to aid the homeless—and to help San Rafael. “But translating a general feeling to specific actions is where the challenge is.” Meredith envisions something reminiscent of a community watch for the homeless in which cities and the county and their residents work with civic organizations like the Organizing Committee. “The theme we are promoting, the nature of a community, is that everyone wants to look out for the health and well being and safety of everyone.” It’s a theme, Meredith says, that’s “getting some traction.” < Contact the writer at peter@pseidman.com

Homeless youth don’t always feel ‘comfortable’ in the crowded downtowns; abandoned buildings and open space are sometimes their preferred night space.

It was winter and Josh had to be creative about where he took shelter. He’d often sleep in abandoned buildings in the countryside—where he created showering devices out of two-liter bottles and read old novels he found among the building ruins. On the coldest and rainiest nights, Josh found shelter at Larkin Street Youth Services in San Francisco and the Mill Street shelter in San Rafael. He often ate free meals at the St. Vincent de Paul dining room. “I was pretty much by myself all of the time,” says Josh. “The homeless youth generally don’t feel comfortable so you don’t really see any other young people. It took a bit of time but I eventually got up the nerve to get in touch with TAY and Buckelew.” After more than three months on the street, Josh was given a bed in a youth-based transitional housing program. The Transition-Age Youth (TAY) program, a collaboration between Buckelew Programs, Family Service Agency of Marin, and Marin Community Mental Health Services, provides services to young men and women, ages 16-25, who are struggling with mental health challenges. TAY provides wrap-around services, including transitional housing, case management, crisis management, medication oversight, peer mentoring, education and employment support and provides workshops on independent living skills. The program has an age limit of 26 years old. Josh has a just a few short months remaining until he graduates from the program. The ultimate goal in programs such as these: employment. “Part of the [expectation] with living in transitional housing is that you’re looking for work or have work in order to live there,” says Josh. “And they help you with all kind of job searching and interview practice and everything. “They also work with you on budgeting to stay within a certain amount of whatever your income is. So by the time it’s time to leave, you have enough money and ongoing income in order to find a regular place to live and be able to afford it.” Another program that Josh credits for providing him with critical support during his homelessness is AHO, or Ambassadors of Hope and Opportunity (one of the Pacific Sun’s Heroes of Marin award honorees in 2011.) “A couple of other clients in the TAY program knew about AHO and so they suggested that I go to one of the meetings. I found it to be really amazing, so I’ve been going every week since,” says Josh. “It seems like a lucky

coincidence that I happened to get hooked up with AHO but I am sure there are a number of young people homeless in Marin that have no idea that this exists and that it’s available to them every week.” And though Josh receives services while seeking employment and permanent housing, things haven’t unfolded with ease. The process of applying for the various social services he receives—like food stamps, unemployment benefits, CMSP (County Medical Services Program)—can be overwhelming, especially while simultaneously addressing newly diagnosed mental health issues and seeking permanent housing. “You have whatever are the initial traumas or difficulties or circumstances that brought you to being homeless in the first place— which generally while you are homeless are probably still unresolved in some way—and then you’re trying to apply for social services, get work, get housing, find creative places to bathe or get food,” says Josh. “Trying to do that on top of whatever anxiety you’re dealing with, it becomes a lot more complicated.” While the challenge of overcoming childhood trauma and mental illness will surely be a lifelong process, something about Josh says that he is a success story in the making. With his family currently living away from Marin— and with full engagement in the services offered by both AHO and TAY—he is able to focus and be proactive in his recovery. Still, many youth are not aware of the support available to them and the enormous positive impact that local programs like AHO and TAY can have on their road to self-sufficiency. Josh hopes that this will change and that homeless youth in Marin will reach out to receive the guidance he’s been fortunate to have found. “It’s true of a lot of young people, but I had great difficulty seeing the future in terms of what my life might look like or what I might wish for my life in a longer-term sense,” says Josh. “But today, I’m actually feeling very hopeful.” < Email Dani at dburlison@pacificsun.com.

Cold hand-crafted beers and ciders will be poured, as well. Cost is $40 advance, $50 at the gate. Order online at www.millvalley.com. This is a fundraiser for the Chamber of Commerce and its economic development programs. Please note: Attendees must be 21; bicycles, strollers and dogs not allowed. A REBIRTH AND AN EXPANSION San Rafael welcomes back Vin Antico (881 Fourth St.), shuttered last year but reborn under new ownership, new management and a new chef. Now designated as an urban trattoria and wine bar, it is downplaying the Italian influence rampant in the surrounding neighborhood and emphasizing simple, farm-fresh foods from local producers. (The wine list is moving toward California bottles, too.) Owner Mike Heffernan, a Marin native, chose Megan Smith as executive chef, someone whose experience at Fish in Sausalito and cooking on the Google campus prepares her for the restaurant’s direction. Recent menus have had dishes such as pork chops served with bread pudding studded with candycap mushrooms, adding to sweet overtones of an apricot sauce, and grilled artichokes with aioli heightened by flavorful preserved lemon. Vin Antico is open for dinner nightly. 415/721-0600...And there’s another newcomer!

I stopped by earlier this week to do some sampling. I liked the “Soothe� green juice with cucumber, spinach, celery and a kick of ginger and the “After Party,� which is orange from beets and carrots. Meal replacement drinks, like the PBJ with almond butter, brown rice protein, raspberries and almond milk, may sound odd but are very tasty. The fresh hit of raspberries in the “Warrior� with chia seeds was thick and delicious. All the juices are cold-pressed from organic fruits and vegetables and made each day. The main business of Urban Remedy is providing juices for their signature cleanses. Created by Neka Pasquale, an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner, the different cleanses provide benefits such as immune system boosting, anti-aging, weight loss, detox and improving digestion. The juice craze is turning into big business with companies like Starbucks and Hains jumping on the bandwagon; New York and Los Angeles have a variety of juice bars and juice cleanse companies slogging it out for market share. Urban Remedy’s well-placed store could put Marin on the map as the trend for freshpressed juices continues to rage.—Brooke Jackson

ANOTHER BiTE OF THE COUNTY’S FAVORiTES Instead of packing the same old PB&J you’ve been eating since you were 10, why not leave the sandwich-making to the pros? With picnic season before us, here are some of my favorite spots in Marin to pick up vittles before a day of frolicking on the Point Reyes National Seashore.

Perry’s Deli & Inverness Park Grocery 12301 Sir Francis Drake Blvd. (at Vallejo Ave.), Inverness. 415/663-1491 Perry’s Inverness Park grocery and deli can really cut www.perrysinvernessparkgrocery.com. the mustard... Perry’s Inverness Park Grocery Deli got extremely lucky when chef Ed Vigil of the momentarily shuttered (now reopened) Vin Antico in San Rafael accepted a job behind their deli case. Vigil throws his considerable talent at creating delicious sandwiches and salads with his own house-cured meats, locally grown organic produce and breads from Brick Maiden. Familiar favorites including tuna salad, roast beef and smoked turkey are on the menu, but ingredients are all top-notch. His West Marin Reuben includes pastrami, Point Reyes Farmstead Toma cheese and sauerkraut all piled high on a caraway batard. Perry’s Delicatessen #3 1916 Sir Francis Drake Blvd., Fairfax. 415/456-3580 For more standard fare, stop by the other Perry’s Delicatessen in Fairfax. At one time there were more than 10 Perry’s in the county, but today there are three left and all are independently owned. This bare-bones storefront is a no-frills, family-run operation with a list of creatively named sandwiches to choose from—or you can build your own. Pesto burgers, roasted chicken with avocado, Caesar salad sandwiches are all spelled out on a large black chalkboard at this local favorite. And the prices are reasonable. Service is efficient and mostly friendly, a good beverage selection and ice cream by the scoop or shake also make this a favorite for families. Blue Barn 335 Corte Madera Town Center, Corte Madera. 415/927-1104. www.bluebarngourmet.com And then there is newcomer Blue Barn, with its decidedly South Marin vibe (it’s in the Corte Madera Town Center) that offers up sandwiches with names like Ragin’ Cajun and Kickin’ Chicken. Everything is free range, and nothing is under $9. Grilled cheese sandwiches prepared with burrata or manchego cheese are popular. You get the picture. If you are a foodie, you will appreciate the inventive flavors and fresh ingredients at this stylish new addition to the mall. —Tanya Henry

Readers come to the table Who pays the first-date check? Responses are, er... split by Nik k i Silve r stein

T

hank you, dear readers, for your overwhelming agreement that a gentleman always pays the tab on a first date. To the few of you who didn’t have the good sense to take my side, I hope to sway you yet. Before we get to that, I have some ’splaining to do. Folks wrote in wondering what happens with the tab on the second date and when it’s OK to sleep together. Providing that the man paid in full for the first date, I do not oppose a woman picking up the bill, splitting it or allowing him to pay again. Furthermore, I don’t care when you decide to shtup, because that’s none of my business. Etiquette, though, concerns me. Every man missing manners should take heed of the following advice from other brilliant people like me. Peter from Novato: tandards of courtesy and polite behavior have changed over the course of my life. As a baby boomer, I was raised to always be the perfect gentleman. Open the car door for your date, hold the restaurant door, help her with her chair, assist her with her coat, and always pic up the chec . Always! It was decades before one of my dates offered to pay the tab, and it was not on a first date. Even today, when I date (infrequently), I ma e it clear that when I do the inviting, I do the paying. If my date offered to split the bill or to pay entirely, I would decline. Peter, go on more dates. Trust me; women are waiting for a man like you. David of San Rafael: As a certified old fart, I got a definite chuc le out of “You get what you pay for.� Ah, the generational differences are staggering. In my day, we were never off the hoo in popping for the tab, never questioned it and never did not—I thin —enjoy the obligation. I have no remembrance of as ing or being as ed to go dutch. And this was not driven by “no pay; no play� either. I recall it being just good old, predictably rote, male pride. You’re a credit to your gender. I’ll bet you’re taken. Rita of San Rafael: In the late sixties when women’s lib was ta ing hold, I went out to dinner with my date, J. He was telling me how thrilled he was with the new women’s movement. He was so excited, that when the bill came he said gleefully as he tossed it at me, “I’ll never have to pay a whole chec again.� And he never did. or did he get married. Though I did hear a rumor he just married for the first time at age 86. Probably because he

found a woman who’d pay the full chec . Oh, Rita. Thank you for putting it all in perspective. I’m still laughing. In all fairness, I realize that there are other opinions about this issue. Here are a few more that I found compelling. Martha of Fairfax: I had thought it long since settled that people going out together on a first date would split the tab. This means that neither party is injecting a power distribution ambiguity element into the encounter. In my experience, the chec splitting revolution was part of the cultural change in the U. . that too place between 1954 (Elvis) and 1974 (the Women’s Rights Movement and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act). As soon as the majority of women were wor ing 40-hour wee s, the search for equality, self-sufficiency and self-esteem, all factors of women’s rights, ic ed in. Then paying for half of the date bill was an easy and honorable element. It wasn’t limited to the first date either. Though Martha respectfully disagrees with me, I must admit her explanation made me feel somewhat sheepish calling myself a feminist while I demand that men pay for the whole enchilada. Fortunately, I got over it pretty quickly. Dina of Sausalito: I’m disappointed that in this day and age there are still some women giving the rest of us a bad name. Honestly, I thought the “man always pays� thin ing went out of fashion right along with men being the sole breadwinners and women belonging in the itchen. Why should the man have to pay on the date? Did the woman not eat? Does she not wor the same as him, and expect equal treatment, equal pay, and equal rights in all other areas? To expect the man to pay signals that the woman expects to be spoiled in the relationship and that he should stay far, far, away. I’m not high maintenance. Well, usually. Anyway, I don’t think chivalry is dead yet, which is why the man should pay on the first date. It’s not like I’m going to order lobster and caviar. Joel: I prefer the stories about your family. Internet dating pretty much suc s. Concise and clear summary of the situation. For once, I don’t feel the need to say anything more. < e-mail: nikki_silverstein@yahoo.com

Presto chango! ‘Now You See Me’ vanishes into post-film-conversation thin air... by David Te mpleton

“I

don’t tell short stories,” laughs Barbara Harrison. “All of my stories are long.” This turns out to be only partially true. Harrison, a retired teacher of English as a second language, does tell elaborate detail-rich stories, but she also has a knack for one-liners and off-the-cuff quips, all on display as we sit at a Novato Starbucks discussing the new magic-mysterychase-thriller-bank-heist-comedy-action movie Now You See Me, which we just saw. Featuring Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman, the movie is perhaps the shaggiest shaggy-dog story ever put on film, the labyrinthine escapades of four stage magicians who are recruited by a mysterious stranger to start robbing banks and insurance companies as part of their magic act. Harrison is my guest this afternoon because ... wait. Tell me again why I’m seeing a movie about bank-robbing magicians with an ESL instructor who tells long, funny stories? “Because I invited myself, and you didn’t say no,” Harrison says. Oh yes. That’s it. I made Harrison’s acquaintance in April, at the 20th anniversary event for this column. She approached me afterward and identified herself as one of Marin County’s most enthusiastic movie fans, volunteering to let me take her to a movie any time. When I bumped into her again last weekend at a play, Harrison re-invited me to invite her to the movies sometime. And here we are, a journalist and an English teacher, trying to make sense out of one of the more convoluted, outrageous and improbable heist movies in recent memory. “It was entertaining,” Harrison points out. “I liked the behind-the-scenes magic stuff, even though a lot of that wasn’t stage illusion so much as it was special-effects. I’ve never seen a Las Vegas magic show, though, so maybe that’s what they’re like.” “It came awfully close to being just too much of everything,” I suggest. “One too many heists, one too many fist-fights, one too many car chases—and maybe two or three too many plot twists.” “But it never felt like it was too long,” she says. “A lot of movies today are way too long. Tom has a theory that if movie editors were not allowed to make a film any longer than their own bladders could hold the largest-sized concessions drink,

than maybe movies would be shorter, and people would want to see them in a theater instead of at home on DVD.” The Tom of whom she speaks, he of the bladder-movie theory, is her husband, Tom Harrison of Tom Harrison Maps (www.tomharrisonmaps.com), a small San Rafael-based company which publishes full-color, shaded-relief topographic trail maps, the old-fashioned paper kind, along with a new line of smart-phone apps, covering most of the parks, forests and wilderness areas in the state of California. Which is why Tom has not joined us this afternoon. “Summer is a busy time for maps,” Harrison explains. “Hiking maps sell out faster when the weather is good, so we have to reprint them faster. If a movie isn’t super-compelling, then he’d rather not waste his time on it. “I’m not the same at all,” she laughs. “I’ll see pretty much anything!”

‘The World of Henry Orient’ got a big thumbs up from Harrison’s typically hard-to-please mom.

“Even ... horror movies?” I ask, knowing that gore is the line across which many movie-lovers will not cross, unless it’s gore served up with a large dose of humor. “I do like horror movies, but only if they’re funny,” she says, illustrating my point. “I loved Shaun of the Dead, and I don’t normally like zombie movies. I’m a big fan of Tremors, which was scary but also funny. And it was smart.” “What about Eight Legged Freaks,” I suggest, naming one of my own favorite scary-funny-smart movies. “I never saw that one!” Harrison confesses. “What was that one about?” “Giant spiders.” “Oh maybe I did see that one. Maybe I did and it wasn’t that memorable.” “Giant insects,” I reply, defending my genre, “are always memorable. I’m still waiting for Hollywood to make a movie about giant termites. Giant termites would be devastating. Most of the great giant bug movies we’ve seen have been

Magicians haven’t been this cool since Doug Henning was in his prime.

about spiders.” Ironically, there is very little to say about Now You See Me that won’t spoil the plot twists, which come at the audience fast and furious, another movie, by the way—Fast and Furious 6—that Harrison couldn’t stay away from. “I don’t know why I love movies so much,” she laughs, shaking her head. “We didn’t see very many movies growing up, mainly because there were five kids in our family and we were poor. So whenever we did see movies, it was at the drive-in. The first movie I ever saw as a child was at the drive-in. It was Peter Pan, the Disney movie, and afterwards I had Captain Hook nightmares—and flying dreams! I do remember the first movie my mother ever took us to see in a sit-down theater. I was in seventh grade. It was The World of Henry Orient, with Peter Sellers. I remember it was kind of weird and bizarre, and I liked it, and I was kind of surprised that my mother liked it, too, because my mother was ... she wasn’t the kind to approve of that sort of thing.” Harrison sips her chai latté as we trade the names of the first movies we each saw at various formative times in our lives. The first film Harrison ever saw more than once was The Graduate, with Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft. “I had just moved to Florida, and I was asked out by this guy who’d already seen it,” she recalls. “He said, ‘You will love it— because you’re from California!’ And I ended up loving it so much, the next time he asked me out I made him take me to see The Graduate again! Then, after Tom and I started dating, which was shortly after that, I made him take me to see The Graduate too. I actually saw it again recently. It was in the classic film series at the Regency in San Rafael, where they show great old movies on the big screen. I’m seeing Raiders of the Lost Ark there

tomorrow! Anyway ... I saw The Graduate again, and it was just as good, though it’s a different experience now because it’s become this famous movie, and we all know the catch-phrases and all the scenes, and it’s such an icon that watching it now is not like watching it for the first time.” “Or the second?” I suggest. “Or the third!” Another movie Harrison has seen multiple times in this year’s Oscar-winner, Argo, about the Iran hostage crisis of the late 1970s. “I lived in Iran, as a kid, before the hostage crisis,” Harrison explains. “I went to school there, since my father worked in Iran at the time. I’ve talked to other people who went to school there, and Argo was a big deal for all of us. We’d go on Facebook and point out how obvious

A scene that reminds Harrison of many of her first dates... because she always wanted to see ‘The Graduate,’ of course.

it was that the movie was filmed in Istanbul and not Iran. The streets in Iran don’t look anything like they did in the movie. “Hey!” Harrison says, smiling. “There’s the movie you should have taken me to see. Argo! “At least,” she laughs, “we could have talked about that one!” < Tell David that spiders are not insects at talkpix@earthlink.net. JUNE 7 - JUNE 20, 2013 PACIFIC SUN 19

Sexual healing Berkeley poet Mark O’Brien died in 1999 after a lifetime in an iron lung, the result of childhood polio, and THE SESSIONS is the story of his real-life encounter with sex therapist Cheryl CohenGreene in the late ‘80s. Despondent Helen Hunt, wearing what’s known in sex therapist circles as a ‘Freudian slip.’ after a marriage proposal to his caregiver goes south, Mark resolves to lose his virginity by referral from UCB’s Center for Disability and Sexuality—but, good Catholic that he is, he seeks to clear it first with Father Brendan (William H. Macy). Life as a neck-down paralytic means zero spontaneity: He’ll be booked for his encounters and wheeled by gurney to a safe house for a maximum six appointments. But Cheryl’s arrival in his life proves an earthquake—the familiar Boston accent, the thrill of nakedness and contact, all strangely wrapped up in the language of therapy. It’s little wonder that he breaks format and writes her a lyric. John Hawkes and Helen Hunt star in a film that, like O’Brien himself, finds beauty and belly-laughs in the grimmest of cosmic hands. Hunt’s performance was Oscar-nominated—she and Hawkes have gifts for showing the tenderness and vulnerability that lie just beneath the fun and frolic. Moon Bloodgood costars, riotously.

Marin Art Festival, back in the frame!

06/18: Nature for Kids at Cascade Canyon Head up one of the shaded canyons to

The 17th annual MARIN ART FESTIVAL is in full force this weekend—after nearly becoming “the festival that didn’t happen.” The San Rafael event found itself in a fiscal bind earlier this month when suppliers, in a change from earlier years, asked to be paid in advance for providing tents, portable bathrooms, etc. But thanks No child ever forgets his first encounter with a Marin Art Festival stilt walker. to generous donations from art-loving supporters of the festival—not to mention the artists themselves who wanted to see the event continue—the MAF can breathe a bit easier. Samplings from more than 200 artists will offer a glimpse at what’s going on across the nation on the painting, sculpture, jewelry and fine ceramic scenes. In addition to artistic delights, soothe your soul with a musical lineup chock-full of R&B and rock. The Marin Art Festival takes place by the lagoon at the Marin Civic Center Fairgrounds in San Rafael on Saturday, June 15, and Sunday, June 16, 10am-6pm. Tickets are $10 for adults; children 14 and under are free.

Lucy 6 1/2 year old spayed Domestic Short Hair mix Lovely Lucy is hoping that love is even better the second time around. She was adopted from MHS as a kitten but has returned because her previous guardian has moved where cats are not welcome. Lucy has lived compatibly with a dog and another cat. A serene adult home or a family with older, quiet children might just be Lucy’s cup of tea. A little shy at first, it will not take her long to warm up and start to offer gentle leg rubs and solicit pets. Lucy purrs readily and will “make biscuits� while snuggling in a comfy lap. How “purrfect� is that! Meet Lucy at the Marin Humane Society www.MarinHumaneSociety.org or Contact the Adoption Center (closed Mondays) 415-506-6225 www.MarinHumaneSociety.org

Q:

I’ve always made people laugh with my self-deprecating humor, but I was complaining about not having much luck with the ladies recently, and my buddy told me that my humor is a problem. He said I come off as kind of a downer to women. Other guy friends told me not to listen to him; women love a man with a sense of humor. So, who’s right? —Overweight, Poor and Ugly

A:

Self-deprecating humor works best when a man seems to be kidding, not confessing: “Hey, ladies! Look who’s barely holding it together over here!” So, the question is, exactly how much of a self do you have to deprecate? Evolutionary psychologist Dr. Gil Greengross sees self-deprecating humor as a social version of conspicuous consumption (outlandish spending implying that a person has so much money, he could use packets of dollar bills for firewood.) Poking fun at yourself can suggest that you have so much personal and emotional capital that you not only don’t need to sweat to impress a woman, you can laugh at what a loser you are. (This works especially well if you’re a loser like George Clooney.) Greengross cautions that it’s risky to shine a spotlight on actual flaws, so if there’s a ring of truth to “Overweight, Poor and Ugly,” avoid opening with “Hey, babe, how bout I sell my plasma and take you to dinner?” But say what you lack in looks and money you make up in confidence. You could show off how cool you are with that uncomfortable moment of hitting on a woman with “Hi, I really wanted to talk to you. Can we talk about the weather while I’m thinking of something to say?” And instead of mocking who you are, you’re probably safer poking fun at something you’ve done, like, oops, splashing beer down the cleavage of the woman you’re hitting on: “They usually just slip my water dish into my cage so these sorts of things don’t happen.” Still, although some humorous self-condemnation can be fun, a constant barrage of it may make a woman’s ears try to coerce her arms and legs into a suicide pact. Also, it’s easy to fall into the habit of using humor as a force field so you never have to open up and get real. This tends not to go unnoticed or go over with the ladies. So, sure, disarm a woman with humor, but after she’s disarmed, see that you actually talk to her, person-to-person, not comedian-to-person. Your goal should be finding out things about her that resonate with you and responding to them and seeing whether there’s a connection there. It’s connecting with a woman that will make her stick around—and for far longer than if you just try to hammer her with jokes until she loses consciousness.

Q:

I’m a screenwriter with a job-job, so the early morning is the only time I have to write. When my girlfriend stays over, she’ll come in and start talking to me as I’m trying to work. I love her and don’t want her to feel ignored, but these interruptions really pull me out of my thoughts. —Scribe

A:

Writing and solitude tend to go together. Just think about it: Where was Thoreau’s girlfriend? Bottom of the pond? Writing often looks dignified in movies, but in real life it’s a grubby business that tends to involve some sobbing into the keyboard and humiliating attempts to bribe God in exchange for a working plot twist. In between, however, there are moments of what’s called “flow,” a term by psychologist Dr. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi describing the blissfully productive state where you get so single-mindedly immersed in some activity that time and everything else fall away. Interruptions, no matter how well-meaning, are the death of flow, and not exactly fantastic for lesser states of concentration, either. Explain this to your girlfriend so she can understand that your need for solitude isn’t a form of rejection and that, when you’re writing, the sweetest and most supportive thing she can do is act like she’s not speaking to you (but without the door slammings and mumblings of “remorseless turd!” that usually come with). Block out a few hours in the morning as “do not disturb” time (which she should feel free to ignore whenever she catches fire). And when you aren’t blackening pages, maybe make an effort to be extra-affectionate in addition to expressing appreciation for her support. This should help keep her from feeling bad and acting out, and you, in turn, from rebelling against any such rebellion and, say, revising your pet name for her from “Sugarbooger” to “Writer’s Block.” < © Amy Alkon, all rights reserved. www.advicegoddess.com.
