Letters Faith in humanity is restored at Bridge the Gap College Prep.

‘There is hope for humanity’

My thanks to the Pacific Sun and writer Joanne Williams for the article “Soaring Above” in the May 27-June 2 issue. As a news junkie, I read daily reports of man’s inhumanity to man that often make me despair. Williams’ article was a great antidote. Her moving account of the Marin City tutoring program, Bridging the Gap, and the dedication of its students and volunteer tutors was cheering as well as inspiring. There is hope for humanity when such good people exist, and I’m grateful for being reminded of it.

Rachelle Marshall, Mill Valley

Keep the changes coming Congrats on the look and feel of the new Sun, everyone! That happy readers and whiners about the new paper appear in the Letters section

is a nice plus. Sonoma can crumble into the ocean (and take Novato with it) during the next quake and we’d all be much better off. Ha! All you guys should do now is quit printing horoscopes and replace the pseudoscience with a newer comic (I don’t mind a left wing cartoon, but please make humor your first priority), or perhaps a reprint of the exquisite, now-defunct Life in Hell

by Matt Groening. Oh yeah, and get rid of Nikki Silverstein! OK, maybe not entirely, but think about giving Craig Whatley, Stanton Klose, or myself as much or more space than Ms. Silverstein, Amy Alkon, or Skip Corsini. I look forward to future changes, everyone.

Tony Good

It’s best to coexist

The changes to the Pacific Sun look great but could you please keep the Sonoma County information in the Bohemian and the Marin County information in the Pacific Sun? There is a good reason the two papers have coexisted: To best serve their areas. If I want to find out about Sonoma County, I grab the Bohemian. Advertisements for Petaluma businesses and upcoming music shows in Sonoma and Santa Rosa in the Pac Sun, while informative, aren’t totally relevant to our daily lives in Marin. Why put that information in the Marin paper?

Seems like a push to sell Sonoma

Who said anything about ‘illegal immigrants’?

The Pac Sun’s concern over illegal immigrants’ bike commute is laughable [“Critical Connection,” May 27]. The average Canal resident commutes by bike about three blocks to a hardware store to look for day work. Any who travel further drive or take the bus.

As far as concern over these poor people having to brave the perils of traffic, if you came down here you’d see that all the illegals and their descendents ride their bikes on the sidewalks (which is illegal), never on the street. Why? Well, they know their fellow illegals are driving. Now that illegals have drivers’ licenses, they’re storing their cars in the industrial area of Kerner Blvd., taking away parking for employees in the area. Sorry, I’m not seeing an upside to illegals unless you want cheap lawn care.

Carlo Gardin, Fairfax

The ‘Sun’ recommends a closer read of Peter Seidman’s ‘Critical Connection’ article. And an open mind.

Upfront State-mandated water conservation comes as an attempt to meet challenges of severe drought outside of Marin.

A call for shared sacrifice Marin asked to join a wider community in conserving water

By Peter Seidman

T

he state-mandated water conservation that began this week asks Marin residents to reduce their water use, even though the reduction will not do much to help the statewide water picture. Call it a mandate for Marin to accept its place as a member of the California community of counties. Call it a request for shared sacrifice.

How that call will play in a county that’s been highly resistant to participating on a wider stage

regarding issues ranging from affordable housing to water use remains to be seen. The mandatory conservation began Monday. It recalls—or should recall—the failed attempt in the county to build a desalination project that could insulate Marin from drought. It also recalls—or should recall— the adamant refusal to accept the idea of a proposal to possibly construct a pipeline from the East Bay that could provide Marin with emergency water in the event of a

severe drought.

The state-mandated conservation is part of the governor’s attempt to meet the challenges of the severe drought in other parts of the state.

Marin has been lucky and has escaped drought conditions. The Marin Municipal Water District (MMWD) serves about 186,000 customers in Southern and Central Marin. The North Marin Water District serves about 61,000 customers in Novato and West Marin.

The North Marin District, which receives the bulk of its water supply from the Russian River and reservoirs, must reduce its water use by 24 percent. The MMWD must cut back 20 percent.

Dan Carney, MMWD conservation manager, says that the State Water Resources Control Board arrived at the cutback targets by calculating the average per capita consumption using 2013 as a baseline. The average statemandated cutback is 25 percent. The range of reductions that the state is requiring runs from 8 percent to 36 percent.

The MMWD receives about 75 percent of its water from reservoirs in Marin. It receives about 25 percent from the Russian River under a contract with the Sonoma County Water Agency.

The MMWD is in large part— actually 75 percent—insulated from drought conditions that could affect the delivery system in the rest of the state. Even so, the state requires Marin to show good faith as a member of the California water use community by following the 20-percent-reduction mandate even though Marin reservoirs are at about an average level.

Residents of the MMWD have already demonstrated an exceptional ability to conserve.

Many district residents were around for the “Great Drought” in the 1970s. Putting bricks in toilets became a way of life—a way to reduce water consumption before low-flow toilets. Residents stopped washing their cars and watering their lawns. Short showers were de rigueur.

The water-reduction measures worked. Still, a pipeline across the Richmond/San Rafael Bridge, in large part, saved the day and reminded district residents that Marin reservoirs are vulnerable to severe drought conditions.

According to a district Urban Water Management Plan report, a periodically prepared document sent to the state, “The district’s programs for demand management through water conservation began in 1971, and a study in 1999 found that the per capita demand [had] been reduced by an estimated 25 percent during the period from 1970 to 1998.”

The state-mandated reduction will be assessed based on consumption from June of 2015 to February of 2016. The cumulative total reduction must meet the 20 percent target in MMWD and 25 percent statewide.

Meeting the target should be fairly easy for MMWD customers.

Using 2013 as a baseline, customers

was meant to address the cost issue.

Critics also raised the possibility that desalination would harm the environment in the bay. But a close look at the environmental studies for the project showed few, if any, truly negative effects. A plan to take brine after desalinating the water, and pump the brine to a waste treatment facility in Central Marin meant that the salinity of bay water actually could improve because of the desalination process. Adding brine to the fresh water from the treatment facility would bring the water closer to the salinity level of the bay. The essential takeaway was that not all desalination plants are the same. Each one needs to be assessed based on its proposed procedures.

Another objection centered on energy use. Desalination takes power. Critics soundly rejected the idea that the desalination plant could combine with a solar facility either here or elsewhere in the state to produce clean-power sweet water.

But it was a philosophical rejection of desalination and also of a pipeline that created the strongest pushback to the idea that Southern and Central Marin need an increased water supply. Evidence of that position came with the caution among critics that increasing Marin’s water supply would mean that water could be exported out of the county. Water in a pipeline can flow both ways, critics charged.

Critics succeeded in forcing the district to go to voters for approval of a desalination plant, if and when the district decides to proceed with desalination.

That, in turn, raises the question of whether Marin residents in general, and MMWD residents in particular, see themselves as participating members of a wider community and would, as a matter of social service, be willing to contribute to the wider community’s water supply wellbeing.

The good news is that MMWD customers should be able to meet the additional 6.5-percentconservation target—and make additional conservation gains through simple actions like shutting off faucets and following mandatory lawn-watering restrictions.

Conservation rules and tips abound on the websites of the two Marin water agencies.

The bad news is that even with Draconian conservation measures, MMWD customers face the prospect of a water deficit when the next multi-year drought hits. Y Contact the writer at peter@pseidman.com.

in the district had already reached a 13.5-percent-conservation target in 2014. The historic lack of rain in 2013 helped spur the reduction.

Residents of the MMWD need to reduce their consumption by just 6.5 percent more to reach the state target. To customers who already follow good conservation procedures, Carney says, “Thank you. I’m not asking for anything more.”

Carney says that meeting the state target, even though Marin reservoirs are in good shape, is a benefit to the district and the county. “Whether it’s a state order or people recognizing that it’s possible to increase conservation, it’s a good thing for Marin to raise conservation awareness.” Carney notes that even with a normal amount of water in the reservoirs and a normal amount of rainfall in winter months, MMWD still has only a two-year supply of water in MMWD reservoirs.

Running a pipeline from the East Bay similar to the one in the 1970s was a topic of discussion when the district once again considered the possibility of augmenting the water supply in the county if another severe drought hits the North Bay. The proposal to just investigate the possibility triggered strong opposition that resulted in the idea getting put back on the shelf. Chief among the objections was the unsubstantiated charge that bringing more water to Marin would bow to big-time developers slavering for an increased water supply. The argument was an intrinsic rejection of the planning process and a declaration of no faith in planners and elected officials.

The debate about water supply entrapped the discussion about affordable housing and how much support the county should give it.

A similar objection was raised when a proposal for a desalination project was the topic of the day.

Consultants submitted a report stating that desalination would work as a drought-proof water source for district customers. A report outlined four options that the water district could pursue. As with most public works projects, the initial cost estimates—including facilities ranging from $111.2 million to $173.4 million to build— grew as time went by, but the MMWD manager at the time said considering inflation, the costs were within an expected range.

There’s no doubt that desalinating water is a relatively expensive proposition, although costs are coming down as the technology improves. Creating a small plant that could be expanded

Rogue and dangerous mountain bikers are certainly a minority of the cyclists on the trails, yet ask most folks on two legs if they’ve had a close call with a two-wheeler and you’ll know it’s a fairly common occurrence. With almost 16,000 acres of land in the Marin Open Space District, there’s plenty of room for all law-abiding users.

cil cowered by 20 letters? Bill Hess of Greenbrae is appalled that council members recently reversed course about heavy fines for cyclists parked illegally in Sausalito. “Maybe other people engaging in illegal activities can get their friends to write letters to the Sausalito City Council to get them not to fine their activities,” Hess said. (Imagine all of the fun. Run naked in the downtown fountain. Use the seal statue as a water slide. Block off Caledonia Street to tourists.) “These must have been very powerful letters,” Hess said. And, he wonders whether there is an intimate relationship between the council and cyclists.

We think the council is cowered, not by cyclists, but by the wrath of the businesses catering to tourists on bikes.

American booty Financially and culturally, the Dead rock on

By Tom Gogola

Getting weir’d. The trip isn’t over, as the Dead gear up for new shows.

W

hen it comes to the Grateful Dead— man, what a long, strange cha!-ching!

it’s been.

Twenty years after the band played its last show, they’re back this summer for what are promised to be the very last Grateful Dead shows ever, in honor of the 50-year anniversary of their formation in 1965.

The shows are more than a musical victory lap. Whether you’re a Deadhead of not, they offer a window into a cultural

phenomenon that seems more pervasive than ever.

Interest, to say the least, has been high. The reunion was announced in January, and by early March, CNN breathlessly reported that a three-day pass to the Fare Thee Well event in Chicago was being offered on the online ticket broker StubHub for an eye-popping $116,000.

David Meerman Scott didn’t pay that much, but the marketing expert, author and veteran Deadhead says he did “pay through the nose” for his Chicago tickets

through Ticketmaster. He’s psyched for the shows, even if the rollout was rough going and left lots of loyal fans in the dust, as the band has acknowledged.

Scott lives outside of Boston and is co-author of Marketing Lessons from the Grateful Dead. He’s been a Deadhead since the late 1970s and says the lesson the band forgot this year is just how popular they still are when they announced the threenight stand at Soldier Field.

“I think they misjudged demand,” says Scott. “They put the tickets on sale thinking that they might have

trouble selling out Soldier Field for three nights.”

Au contraire. The shows sold out in veritable nanoseconds, and thousands of tickets wound up on the resale market, with little concern for that legendary fan outside the gate with outstretched palms, seeking the miracle ticket.

Scott notes that season-ticket holders to Chicago Bears games were given dibs on Dead tickets, and that as many as 10,000 passes might have entered the resale market that way. While the Dead find appeal in many cultures and subcultures,

tickets,” says Scott, “and it meant that a lot of hardcore fans got left out.”

The vagaries of capitalism require that, theoretically anyway, the market determines the price for these highly in-demand tickets.

But the market does not, and can’t possibly account for this question: Twenty years down the road, who or what sets the value of a Grateful Dead ticket beyond its price?

Is it even worth asking which “countercultural” values are being represented in this extended exercise in groove-culture redux?

Is it the Grateful Dead value of the temporary autonomous zone within which to twirl, trip and choogle along until properly blissed out? Or the ground-breaking, opensource ethic embodied in the band’s tolerance and support for its tapesharing community?

Tape-sharing was a huge marketing coup for the band, says Scott, and one that’s rippled through to our digitized new millennium.

“Free-sharing foreshadowed what we see on the web,” says Scott.

“The idea of letting people tape the shows—this was a social network before Mark Zuckerberg was even born.”

Twenty years after the last Grateful Dead show, now you can find eBay offerings of vintage Dead cassettes recorded off the soundboard. One batch of twodozen tapes ranging from 1970 to 1994 had a bid that hovered around $60 before it closed over the weekend. To bring it all home: eBay itself launched in September 1995.

Time flies.

‘The band has always been very innovative with everything,” says Anton, “and the music reflects that. Everything about the band is uniquely Grateful Dead, and it’s based on innovation, creativity and kindness.”

But there’s another value that may be getting promoted here that springs to mind, embodied in this John Barlow lyric that Bob Weir sings in the song “Money Money”: “Money money, money money money / Money money, money money money.”

Call it a split ticket of values: the resurrected Dead, minus Jerry, highlights class divisions among fans that have gone on down their own road over these past two decades.

There was always a discussion about money and the Dead, given the fan-base demographic of, generally speaking, white college students. And now an entire generation of fans has come into its own since the band last played under the Grateful Dead banner.

That’s a big gap, and most fans probably don’t even recall that it was Weir himself, for example, who famously did advertisements for Izod Lacoste shirts in the late 1980s.

You reap what you sow.

The split between the stereotypes—hippies in the bleachers, baby boomer lawyers in the front row—was never lost on the band, says Anton. “I know from way back they used to really try to figure it out,” he says. “One of the last times I talked to Garcia, I asked him, ‘How are you doing, what have you been doing?’ He tells me, ‘I don’t play the guitar any more—all I do is go to meetings. Everything is a big meeting.’ He said he’d rather play the guitar than go to a meeting.

And who wouldn’t! That being said, they do try to figure out the best ways to do things onstage.”

But Jerry’s gone. And one veteran Deadhead I talked to, who said he’d be going the webcast route instead of Chicago, put it this way: “On the one hand, if somehow the spirit of a real Grateful Dead show is summoned, I’d be very sorry to have not been there. However, from the Other Ones shows, I know what to expect: an old and affluent crowd who have forgotten how old they are and thus drink and drug way more than they can handle. Lots of rich day-trippers who want to be able to say they saw the Grateful Dead. Young’uns who don’t know proper Grateful Dead show etiquette with no elders or tour for them to learn from. And most of all, constant chatter while old friends catch up on the last 20 years since Jerry died.”

Ouch.

Scott highlights another stroke of marketing genius on the band’s part, which may have sort of bitten the band in the ass as it was putting together the farewell gigs: The Grateful Dead system for getting tickets into listeners’ hands was a historically fan-friendly portal that also served as an iconic and ongoing visual celebration of the Dead community.

Dead fans are long-known for sending elaborately designed envelopes to the home Dead office—and getting tickets sent back to them in those envelopes.

But that was a long time ago, and Deadhead Al Gore invented the internet in the meantime.

It’s a whole new world out there.

Ticketmaster is now online, and so thousands of hand-drawn envelopes seeking Chicago tickets went unfilled.

The band noticed, felt bad and added the Santa Clara shows for the hardcore. The band also put 300 tickets up on eBay ) 12

Q A

How do I take care of the paint on my car?

The best way to protect your vehicle’s paint is to garage it! The environment is harsh on paint with sun damage, acid rain, bird droppings, and tree sap, etc., and will cause premature paint failure if not addressed properly.

Minimally, remove bird droppings and sap the minute you see it. Use a wet wipe or gentle soap and water – no scrubbing! Avoid overfilling the fuel tank, so you won’t get gas on the paint.

Waxing the car is like using sunscreen on your skin, and should be done at least every six months, if not more often.

Q A

Will your shop reduce or absorb my insurance deductible?

When you buy auto insurance, you have the choice of how much your deductible is going to be. The higher the deductible, the lower the cost of your premium. We recommend that you choose a deductible that you feel comfortable with when/if your car gets in a major accident. The deductible is the amount you pay before the insurance company pays out.

Insurance adjusters are trained on how much repairs cost and will not allow inflated costs. When you ask a shop to cut down your portion of the repair bill, you are giving them permission to do shoddy repairs in order to save money.

Any quality collision repair facility cannot afford to waive your deductible and won’t risk its reputation to engage in insurance fraud.

Scott is perhaps correct in asserting that a Venn diagram of Bears fans and Deadheads wouldn’t find much crossover.

The Chicago shows were promoted as an offering to fans after the abrupt demise of the Dead, two decades ago this summer. The Grateful Dead’s last show was at Soldier Field on July 9, 1995—but the band didn’t know it at the time. The tour ended, everyone went home, and Jerry Garcia died of a heart attack a month later at a Forest Knolls rehab center.

The ensuing years saw surviving members tour under monikers including the Dead, Furthur, the Other Ones, RatDog, and Phil Lesh and Friends. Band members went into the nightclub business.

Terrapin Crossroads and Sweetwater Music Hall became live-music destinations in Marin County as the band slipped into a comfortable, post-spectacle late-adulthood.

But there was always that phantom limb of a last show to contend with, the band avers on its site, and a 50th anniversary synced up nicely with the 20–year-gap between Grateful Dead shows. So why not?

“I think the energy is all coming together, and it’s wonderful,” says Greg Anton, a Sebastopol musician who used to play in the Heart of Gold Band with Keith and Donna Godchaux, former members of the Grateful Dead from the 1970s.

“When the Grateful Dead come together, they bring with them a whole culture, not just the music,” says Anton, who has also co-written dozens of songs with Garcia collaborator Robert Hunter. “I’m happy they are doing it. I just wish they’d do it more often,” he says.

Anton’s not going to make the shows (he’s a touring musician and the freshly minted author of the rock and roll novel Face the Music), but ticket prices have come somewhat down to earth since the first rush of interest in the Dead reunion, to a more manageable high-end offering of $32,000 for an up-front seat at Soldier Field, according to the latest StubHub information available. The most recent news from the Dead is that they’ve bought back some of the Soldier Field tickets and plan to make them available to fans.

Scott says there’s no way the Soldier Field snafu could have been avoided, given that the band had announced that those shows would be the last ones ever, and that popular Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio would sit in the Jerry chair. That’s a double-whammy of demand. “They misjudged how many people were going to want

This upcoming blowout may well combine the scope of a WrestleMania event with the aroma of the High Times Cup. The sudden emergence of a bona fide and pleasingly anachronistic Grateful Dead moment this summer occurs along a convergence point of legacy, spectacle, entitlement and enjoyment. It occurs amid the unwelcome specter of a verticalized music industry, and a counterculture that has all but bowed to the ersatz lure of a Google-provided technocratic vista.

And, right on time this time, the Dead website offers some fresh apps for sale.

After the Chicago ticket-grab debacle—that’s how the marketing wiz Scott describes it—the band took to its website to tell fans that two California shows had been added. “Santa Clara helped,” says Scott.

The California tickets have been pushed out mainly through traditional Grateful Dead ticketing channels—all those colorful Steal Your Face envelopes are getting filled, and if you want to see the show, chances are you can, and it won’t take a miracle. Poke around on the internet, and heads can easily find online brokers that have slashed ticket prices for Levi’s Stadium. Tickets that were $110 are now $55—for seats behind the stage.

The band note directed at the Deadicated fan base was as interesting as it was earnest—and reflected an ongoing neo-familial relationship the Dead emphasize.

Many fans had gone the old Dead route of mail-ordering for their tickets—only to find out that their elaborately decorated envelopes would not be sent back stuffed with tickets for Chicago. Sounds like they had to have a meeting about it.

“We have tried to do the right thing wherever we could for the Chicago shows by honoring the roots of where we came from, while dealing with the realities of the current times,” the band posted on its website. “But that’s hardly comforting when you’re shit outta luck for tickets and your only option is inflated prices on secondary ticketing websites. That would piss us off too.”

Sure enough.

Loyal fans want to catch these last shows to get that one last bit of Grateful Dead magic. The magic is by no means an assured experience, but you take your chances. The culture supported the band when

it had an off night, or a year full of them. And the band has set low expectations for the upcoming farewell shows, on the logic that the Grateful Dead never played a good show when it was some sort of special occasion.

An old head I got in touch with for this story backs this up. He notes how the band’s New Year’s Eve show was never as good as the Dec. 30 warm-up. And the Dead legendarily blew it at Woodstock.

So they are going into Soldier Field, or at least Bob Weir is, with the sort of language you here from doctors about “managing expectations.”

Good, bad or mixed, Scott is convinced that the band is not doing this for the money. According to a reliable online celebritywealth cheat-sheet—hey, it’s where billionaires go to compare piggy banks—the total net worth of the Grateful Dead members is around $150 million.

Scott says he has heard roughly the same estimated profits for the band—and that the band’s wealth indicates exactly why they are not doing Chicago for the money.

The band, Scott notes, makes millions a year from merchandise and licensing, and he rejects any idea that the band set out to play Chicago as a last chance to make bank. We’re not talking about John Entwistle selling his bass guitars on the side of the road.

“I don’t believe that at all,” says Scott, who notes that the band sold licensing rights to Warner-Rhino in 2011, “and that deal meant that the band members were able to live quite nicely.” He estimates they are each bringing in millions a year, just for being the old guys from that band everyone loves (or loves to hate).

Oh, and by the way, these shows might not actually be the last we hear from the Dead this year.

Billboard recently reported that Weir and John Mayer just might be doing some crazy fingers business this fall, but that talk is, of course, premature—and we hear from the grapevine that there’s no way Phil Lesh wants to hit the road again. So whatever happens later this year, it won’t be called the Grateful Dead.

The band is holding firm on its website: “We will not be adding any more Fare Thee Well shows. The three Chicago shows will still be our final stand. We decided to add these two Santa Clara shows to enable more of our fans to celebrate with us one more time. But this is it.”

Believe it if you need it. Y

Going native Gardening’s a breeze with plants naturally adapted to California climate

By Annie Spiegelman, the Dirt Diva

I

learned about happy-go-lucky native plants about five years too late. During those first few amateur gardening years, I was naively determined to have the perfect English cottage garden. I felt it was my civic duty to counteract my suburban neighbors who seemed to be a bit obsessed with boats, mufflers, disturbing gnomes and fake deer displays on their front lawns. I was obsessed with roses, especially hoitytoity English roses. But once my son was born and all of my spare time was no longer spare, I had less and less energy to maintain my garden.

I remember one particular January morning. I was feeding my infant son and looking out the kitchen window, in a sleep-deprived daze, at the 50-something roses in my yard that needed pruning. I swore I heard them calling my name, till I realized that it was just my poor neglected cat meowing to be fed. Fearful of being reported to the Humane Society or to the Master Gardeners, I tossed the kid in the backpack, pruned all 50

rosebushes and fed the cat. Then I collapsed. One week later I joined a group of Marin Master Gardeners on a class field trip to visit Mostly Natives Nursery in West Marin. And that is when my landscaping life changed forever. I blissfully drove home with a pickup truck full of native plants.

One of the greatest assets of native plants is that they are user-friendly; a good many of them are droughttolerant, have minimal needs and will not be wailing for your attention on a brutally hot and dry August day. No “I need a drink! I’m shvitzing over here! And, I hate you!” that you get from some other sections of your yard. California natives are naturally adapted to the California dry summer climate and winter rains. Since many of them require little water, most can confidently survive on winter rainfall alone. (Alas, this is true only after they are established. You’ll need to water them regularly the first year).

October is considered the best time to plant natives, as the winter rains help the plants get their root

You may want to pick up a copy of Designing California Native Gardens by Glenn Keator and Alrie Middlebrook, or The California Native Landscape by Greg Rubin and Lucy Warren. Both of these books have beautiful photos and fabulous design ideas. Plant some natives and then sit back in your lounge chair and enjoy the summer! Y Tell Annie about your favorite native plants at thedirtdiva@earthlink.net.

Plants that thrive in Marin: Native Shrubs Wild Lilac (Ceanothus) Prefers sun, but does fine in partial shade. Blue to purple blooms on low-growing, ground-cover-type bushes or large tree-sized varieties.

Silk Tassel Bush (Garrya elliptica) In winter, long white catkins dangle off of dark green leaves. Slow growth to 10 feet.

Flannel Bush (Fremontodendron) Fast-growing shrub or small tree with yellow saucer-like flowers. Drought-tolerant.

Flowering Currant (Ribes sanguineum) Does well in shade and under oak trees. Deer-resistant, drought-tolerant, pendulous clusters of pink flowers in the early spring. What’s not to like?

Perennials Monkey Flower (Mimulus) Full sun, minimal water.

Desert beard tongue (Penstemon pseudospectabilis) Showy 4-foot stems of rosy pink tubular flowers.

Matilija Poppy (Romneya coulterii) Huge white flowers. Grows 6 feet tall and can get untidy—but worth it since it’s so cool-looking!

Common Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) Mostly white, flat flower heads that last all summer long and will easily come back for many years. Very low-maintenance.

Checkerbloom (Sidalcea) Two-foot-tall spikes of pink flowers similar to the Lavatera flower. Blooms in early summer. This plant has the “cottage garden” look that we all adore.

systems established. But I’m giving you a pass to plant them now if you are in need of drought-tolerant and low-maintenance plants for your yard.

To combat the hot summer weather, I plant them with a layer of compost and mulch on top to keep them cool and retaining water.

Native plants also attract birds and butterflies because they’re rich in nectar and/or seeds. Many have sweet scents reminiscent of the Wild West.

For example, the various salvias I have in my front yard attract beneficial insects and also smell campy—as in camping. (Depending how you feel about camping, this could be good or bad). One of my favorites is Salvia clevelandii. Named in Southern Caifornia in 1874 in honor of the plant collector Daniel Cleveland, this evergreen shrub grows 3 to 5 feet wide and high with spiky whorls of amethyst flowers that bloom in June or July. No water, no pruning, no attention. This plant is happy to please.

reamers need to stick together,” says Brigitte Moran, borrowing a quote from Disney’s newly released sci-fi fantasy film Tomorrowland. For more than 10 years, Moran, executive director of the Agricultural Institute of Marin (AIM), has been working tirelessly to bring a proposed 30,000 square-foot enclosed market hall and pavilion to Marin’s Civic Center.

The longtime San Rafael resident, who moved to the county from France’s Brittany region when she was just 5 years old, seems wellsuited for the job that she describes as “setting up malls every week around the Bay Area.” Prior to running the Smith Ranch Road-based 500-member nonprofit, Moran owned and operated a large-scale events production company. In 1989, she started the Downtown San Rafael Farmers’ Market, which takes place on Thursday evenings, April through September, on Fourth Street. It wasn’t long before she was asked to run the market, and today she oversees seven farmers’ markets in the Bay Area and manages a staff of 23 employees.

“We try to match markets to farmers; there is a skill to it,” explains Moran, who cites both educating consumers about eating locally grown, healthy food and helping farmers and specialty food producers get their products to their communities as two of AIM’s main goals.

Another goal that the organization hopes to achieve is to provide a permanent home for Marin’s Civic Center Farmers’ Market. What began as a Thursday morning market in 1983 has expanded exponentially over the years, and now includes more than 200 vendors who serve thousands of folks two days a week, year-round.

Board members of AIM contend that their ambitious plan—or as they have

dubbed it, “the world’s most visionary farmers’ market”—will not only assure access to healthy, fresh food, but also demonstrate a strong commitment to local agriculture in the county.

In June of 2014, voters overwhelmingly passed Measure B (by 81.5 percent), which gave permission for AIM to build their proposed structure for the market on the Marin Civic Center campus.

With strong public support, the group is now working hard to raise the projected $23 million that the project will cost to complete. Along with meeting the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy criteria of maintaining a design that respects the existing historic building, Moran says that they are in the final stages of land lease negotiations with the county.

“We are transparent with our food; we want to be transparent with our building,” adds Moran, who shows no sign of losing momentum in keeping the dream alive. She hopes to break ground in the fall of 2016. Y Share your hunger pains with Tanya at thenry@pacificsun.com.

Jeff Wiesen as Captain Hook and David Yen as Smee in Mountain Play’s ‘Peter Pan.’ The movie ‘Tomorrowland’ is inspired, in part, by the utopian dreams of Walt Disney.

Envisioning the future

Will Durst finds hope in the land of tomorrow By David Templeton

‘W

ell I don’t care what the critics say—I think it’s a great message!”

So confesses Will Durst, exiting the San Rafael movie theater where we’ve just watched the upbeat, epic action movie Tomorrowland, Disney’s optimistic answer to the end-of-theworld gloom and doom of Mad Max, San Andreas and Age of Ultron.

Wait a minute.

Age of Ultron was a Disney movie, wasn’t it?

Never mind.

“You know what? I liked Tomorrowland a lot!” continues Durst, the San Francisco-based comic, author and political satirist known for finding a silver lining of humor in even the worst of situations. “I like the whole ‘hope’ thing in the movie.

Stop with the doom and gloom already. I think the movie is totally right. I think all of these apocalypticnightmare-dystopia movies are a self-fulfilling prophecy. It’s nice to have something that challenges that a little.”

Tomorrowland, directed by Brad Bird (The Iron Giant, The Incredibles) is nothing if not a challenge to the norm—not that it doesn’t offer a bit of sobering future shock on its way to suggesting a possible redemption. The movie is inspired, in part, by the utopian dreams of Walt Disney, who concocted the original Tomorrowland attractions at Disneyland and went on to dream up the futuristic Epcot Center at Disney World. It follows a brilliant teenager named Casey Newton (Britt Robertson), who hears warnings of global warming and nuclear proliferation and asks, “What are we doing to fix it?” When she finds a mysterious pin showing her a glimpse of a big, bright, beautiful city full of rocket packs and hovering busses, she heads out in search of the reclusive inventor Frank Walker (George Clooney), who might know how to take her there.

Unfortunately, she eventually learns, the world is going to end in 58 days, and nobody cares enough to change it. Critics have called the

movie “half-baked” and “simplistic,” even accusing it of having lapses in logic. But criticizing a film like Tomorrowland for a few logical failures is a bit like finding plot problems in Aesop’s Fables.

“This fable has plot problems!”

Durst says, taking on the haughty tone of some anti-Aesop pundit.

“If frogs could talk, would the frogs not be more interested in locating a sustainable food source than engaging in existential discussions on the nature of humankind?’ These frogs have clear logic issues!”

Despite its Aesop-like nature, Tomorrowland does carry plenty of action, with killer robots, spaceships, flying contraptions, laser beams, explosions, implosions, interdimensional travel and an awesome battle in a store full of Star Wars kitsch and Lost in Space collectibles.

“The thing is,” Durst says, once we’ve settled down with our biodegradable coffee cups filled with fair trade beverages, “the world really might be coming to an end if we don’t do something about it.

And we really do love movies about the apocalypse. In Tomorrowland, the one guy says that when we were given a vision of the future we were heading for, we turned it into movies and video games. And he’s right.

Even Stephen Hawking says that if we create real Artificial Intelligence (AI) it could be very bad, but instead of abandoning it, the corporations plow ahead with AI and the rest of us watch movies in which the robots take over the world.”

That—in a nutshell—is exactly what Tomorrowland is saying. Durst has been thinking a lot about the end of the world lately. Having struck a chord with his hit one-man-show about the past, Boomeraging: From LSD to OMG—which plays this Friday and Saturday at 8pm at San Rafael’s Belrose Theater—he’s about to launch a brand new solo show titled, Durst Case Scenario, in which he looks at the future.

“The new show is definitely going to touch on the end of the world,” Durst says. “You know there are those Worst Case Scenario books, giving contingency plans on how to escape from grizzly bears or how to escape from quicksand. Well in my new show I’ll explain what to do if you find Vladimir Putin in your hotel room shirtless. So it’s about terrible things, but it’s funny. It’s like if the

zombie apocalypse happened, but all the zombies were wearing clown noses.”

Actually, that would be terrifying.

“I’m just glad there were no zombies in Tomorrowland, Durst goes on. “I’m so tired of zombies. And who invented fast zombies? When did that happen? Zombies aren’t supposed to sprint, like in a lot of the new zombie movies. Zombies are supposed to trudge and stumble.

I want dim, stupid, meandering zombies. Oh wait! That’s the Tea Party!”

One of the points of the movie is that the end-of-the-world scenarios we play out in our entertainment aren’t just society’s way of examining the things we are afraid of. These movies are our way of preparing for a future we’ve consciously chosen to embrace.

“Sure, ’cause if the end of the world comes, then we’re off the hook,” Durst says with a laugh. “The apocalypse is coming this afternoon?

Great! I guess I don’t have to go to work tomorrow. And I can stop recycling while I’m at it! Seriously though, nobody wants a drought in California, right? But is anyone willing to actually change their lives to keep it from coming? Of course not!

“In the movie, the guy says, ‘You have concurrent epidemics of starvation and obesity. How does that happen?’ He’s right. We could fix a lot of our problems right now, but that would hurt the corporations’ bottom line, so we just shrug and move on. Even when we fix one problem, we create another. We’re figuring out how to make machines to turn seawater into drinkable water, which is great, right? So what’s going to happen when we perfect these systems? We are going to suck the oceans dry! Because that’s how we roll.”

The best thing about Tomorrowland, though, is its suggestion that if enough people were inspired by a positive vision of the future, the dreamers and thinkers and artists might band together to find a way to solve our problems in a sustainable, mutually beneficial way.

“I actually think it can happen,” Durst says. “I do. I think we can get out of our own way, and make it hip to be positive, and we can find the people who can save the world.

I believe there can be a positive, optimistic tomorrow.

“I just hope,” he adds with a laugh, “the world lasts long enough for tomorrow to happen.” Y

Ghiringhelli Pizzeria Grill & Bar

Creating a movement SELMA makes clear in its opening frames that it’s going to be a subtle film, not an easy hagiography of a national hero, and it’s refreshing to see how many scenes show Martin Luther and Coretta Scott King vulnerable and trusting their flagging spirits to the energies of other people. When King does act, in the days winding down to their fateful march to Birmingham, he shows a surprising adroitness at tactics and negotiation with unruly people, and reveals a gift for protest choreography in the new television age. But it’s the film’s unsentimental look at the work of creating a movement—toxic battles between the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and local rival Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the petty turf-guarding of Alabama officials—that had the effect for me of loosening the floodgates: I couldn’t stop crying through the entire film. Intensely suspense-making as it lays out the ground game of the voting rights march (I was reminded of The Battle of Algiers) and focusing on the key players, this film captures, like no other, the apartheid mindset running through the 1965 South. David Oyelowo does a matchless incarnation of the civil rights leader under the sure helm of director Ava DuVernay. The question of Lyndon B. Johnson’s guilt or innocence (he was a more sympathetic player than depicted here) has opened the film to criticism, which is fine for the history books but beside the point: He’s an emblem for white America at a time when, like King, they were listening to the better angels of their nature, but not sure if it was yet time to live by them.—Richard Gould

Q:

Goddess

My fiancé is good friends with his ex-girlfriend from college. (We’re all in our 30s.) She isn’t a romantic threat, but she’s become a source of stress. Long before I met my boyfriend, they began hanging out at a local bar together twice a week. They still do this, and I go along, but I’ve increasingly found these evenings a draining time-suck. When I don’t want to go, my fiancé hangs at home with me.

This prompts a tantrum from his ex-girlfriend, complete with a barrage of angry texts. I’ve tried reasoning with her, but she claims that when he was single, he “dragged (her) out constantly” so he still owes her. My boyfriend is a laid-back, nonconfrontational kind of guy and just says she needs to calm down.—No Wonder They Broke Up

A:

They’ve translated the Dead Sea Scrolls, and it turns out they’re actually a 900page list of everything this “friend” has ever done for your fiancé.

OK, when he was single, maybe he “dragged (her) out constantly.” Unless he did this by unchaining her from the wall and yanking her to the bar on a choke collar, it was up to her to decline. Gotta love the notion that her companionship led to some unwritten indentured “frienditude” contract that he still owes big on. (One person’s friendship is another’s mob extortion scheme.)

It’s your fiancé’s job to be “reasoning” with his friend, not yours. (You’re marrying the guy, not adopting him and trying to get him into a good preschool.) You excuse his passivity by describing him as a “laid-back, non-confrontational kind of guy.”

Well, there’s laid-back, and there’s confusing onlookers as to whether you’re a person or a paperweight.

The thing is, whether somebody gets to abuse you is usually up to you. In other words, your fiancé needs to grow a pair (or at least crochet a pair and pop ’em in) and then get on the phone. Tell him that he needs to tell this woman—calmly and firmly—something like, “You know, lovey, I’ve got a fiancé now, and I can’t be as available as I used to be.” He needs to shut down the abusive text storm the same way, telling her, “Not acceptable. Cut it out,” and then block her number if she keeps up the telephone thuggery.

Sure, it’s uncomfortable standing up to a person who’s been treating you badly— an uncomfortable and necessary part of adult life. It’s how you send the message, “Nuh-uh ... no more” instead of “Forever your tool.” And here’s a tip: You don’t need to feel all cuddly and good about confronting somebody; you just need to do it, as opposed to cowering in fear as the Bing! Bing! Bings! of their texted multi-part tantrum come in on your phone. Start encouraging assertiveness in your fiancé now, and keep letting him know how much you admire all the steps he takes. He could soon be a man who’s got your back when there’s trouble—and not just in the corner of his eye as he curls up in a fetal position and whimpers, “Donnnn’t hurrrrt meeee!”

Q:

I’ve started seeing this wonderful guy. There’s no official commitment yet, but I have no interest in anyone else, including the two guys I was casually seeing from time to time. When they text me to try to hook up, I won’t respond or I’ll say I’m busy, but they don’t seem to be getting the message. Admittedly, in the past, I’ve said “no more” and then caved when I’ve gotten lonely or had a few glasses of wine.

Also, how do you say “beat it” without being mean?—Go Away Already!

A:

There’s little that tempers a man’s enthusiasm for a late-night shag like responding to his “want 2 hook up?” by texting back, “YES! I’m ovulating & dying 2 have a baby!”

But it shouldn’t have to come to this—that is, if you start by actually saying “no” instead of starting a game of “Guess why I’m not returning your texts?!”

An ambiguous “no”—not responding or saying, “I’m busy”—is not a “no.” This is especially true of your ambiguous “no,” which, in the past, has translated to, “I’m not drunk/lonely enough. Try me later.” Because of this, you may need to repeat even a firm, “I’m no longer interested” a few times for these guys to get that you aren’t just confused about what you want, or playing hard to get. But in general, the nonevasive “no” eliminates the need to make your point repeatedly, in turn curbing the likelihood of your getting mean on the phone (or, worse, hiding under the bed when you hear the ladder being leaned against your upstairs window).

For the week of June 3

Aries

(March 21 - April 19) Don’t fight it, Aries! Say what’s on your mind.

You’ve done your handful of soulsearching and now it’s time to share the results with your truly beloved. It could be sharing doting words with your significant other or letting the guy in the cubicle next to you know that he needs to stop peeking over into your workspace.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

Did you just sign on to a six-month freelance project with Apple, Taurus?

Congrats! Whatever assignment you just landed is bound to bring you heaps of the green stuff. While a little shopping trip will do the soul good on June 4, also consider investing the other half (in non-gambling ventures).

Gemini (May 21 - June 20) Did

you just ask a girl out on Instagram, Gemini? The full moon in Sagittarius on June 2 left you stronger in a partnership. Your house of one-on-one connections will give you the strength to accept that virtual relationship request or toss it to the wayside and reactivate your Tinder.

(June 21 - July 22) Feeling sick, Cancer? It’s time to focus on your house of health on June 3. This isn’t your average flu—we’re talking uncontrollable headaches and clammy palms. Rest is the best medicine, so put your feet up, shut your phone off and invest in some NyQuil.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22) Romance is

in the air, Leo! Your chart is bursting with the pursuit of all things love with a full moon in fellow fire sign Sagittarius on June 2. In the days that follow, you will prioritize play over work. While that’s all good and fun, don’t get carried away and leave your Match.com profile open on your work computer. Your boss isn’t interested in whether you prefer cats or dogs.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22) Do

you smell drama, Virgo? You’re all for working hard, but it looks like a minor family crisis is celestially scheduled for June 4. Do your best to appease both sides—work and family. Getting up and leaving without letting your boss know might be the straw that breaks the camel’s back and gets you fired.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22) Are you

waiting to hear if you won that court case or not, Libra? Guess what? The jury’s in! The full moon brought with it all kinds of news and information that you’ve been waiting for. Do your best not to get carried away, but tactfully use the information to your advantage.

Sure, you’re no James Bond, but channel your coy side if you want to stretch this information a long way.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21) You’re getting a raise, Scorpio! You’ve only had your new job for a few weeks, but it’s obvious how much ass you’re kicking.

Your personality and wit have clearly been the winning touch—leaving your employer with no other option than to give you incentive to stay.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 -

Dec. 21) Take the bull by the horns, Sagittarius! And commandeer your boss’ office. It’s time to ask for what you want—there’s no better day to approach the head of your company than on June 8. The stars are aligned to assist you with pay increases and, maybe, even new real estate—an office of your very own!

Capricorn

(Dec. 22 - Jan. 19) Go a little easier on yourself, Capricorn!

You’re overdue for a handful of forgiving—but it’s not quite what you think. It’s time to forgive yourself.

You’ve been overly analytical and introspective these last few weeks and it’s taken a toll on your inner self. Live by the lyrics of your 5-year-old’s favorite film and “Let It Go.”

Aquarius

(Jan. 20 - Feb. 18) Are you trying to make a baby, Aquarius? June 9 marks the perfect day to start the welcoming process for baby No. 1 if you’re interested. If you’re not up for the responsibility and sleepless nights that come with said child, opt for a creative baby and work on a passion project. Or buy a dwarf hamster to temporarily settle your empty nest syndrome.

Pisces

(Feb. 19 - March 20) All work and no play made Pisces the best employee ever! Watch the efforts of all of your hard work pay off over the next few days, thanks to the full moon in Sagittarius. It never went unnoticed, but now your big bosses are finally ready to talk about it—and hopefully compensate you for it. Y
