his is a sculpture of San Antonio de Valero, called the Alamo. It is not a model but rather an impression of the feel of the structure with the age and history that it has gone through. The actual mission was founded in 1718. The building itself was started in 1744, but the inscription above the door says 1758 AVR—presumably Ave Maria Regina, “Hail Mary, Queen (of Heaven).” It is most famous and revered for the heroic but fatal stand of 1836 against General Santa Anna and his troops for independence from Mexico. The church fell into ruins, and after Texas joined the Union in 1845, the Army Quartermaster Corp rebuilt the façade and added the profile of the now famous parapet in 1850.

The drawer assemblage containing images and artifacts that tell a story of the Alamo itself is by PJ Cardinale, my wife and fellow artist since 1966.

COVER, JUNE 7: “COP SECRET”

HORSE’S MOUTH I enjoyed Jeff and Aaron’s timely article on police transparency, but felt compelled to add some “inside” information that the average reader doesn’t know about.

The central argument put forth in the article is that it is a fact that an officer was suspended/reprimanded/etc. and not a matter of opinion in a personnel file. Fair enough. The problem is, that “fact” is based on, legally, large amounts of opinion (oftentimes, but not always) to meet the preponderance of the evidence standard. When an officer is sustained on an allegation of a policy violation, it is not a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt, but rather a 51 percent probability that the officer indeed committed the alleged act. ... Many internal investigations turn out to be “slam dunks”— the officer admits the infraction, or video/ audio evidence brings that preponderance standard to almost 100 percent. But many others do not.

Adding to the difficulty of this problem (for administrators and policy makers) is due process for these officers, or the lack thereof. Many agencies don’t allow for appeals of smaller infraction “convictions” (i.e. suspensions of three days or less) and in some due process only kicks in if the officer is terminated or suspended for more than 30 days. When appeals are allowed, they are often conducted in front of peers or laypersons with little or no understanding of the issues and policies at hand. Protections for police officers have largely been born out of nefarious conduct of past administrators (see New Mexico’s own Peace Officer/Employer Relations Act, or “Police Officer’s Bill of Rights”). Public sector unions have carried this mantle for years, regardless if the boss is nefarious

or not. Truly the ball is in the Legislature’s court. IPRA needs fixing, notwithstanding current police transparency issues. Look anywhere else in government. Try getting the personnel files for teachers disciplined, or the janitor, or, God bless him, the road department worker filling in potholes. The same hurdles exist—this is not just a police problem.

ROBERT SHILLING CHIEF, NM STATE POLICE (RETIRED) SANTA FE

There are many problems with SFPD and the Santa Fe [County] Sheriff, and this piece just notes one of the smaller problems.

Two issues loom large, and are not being addressed; illegal policies and rotten training. The Santa Fe Police and sheriff both train their recruits at the local Law Enforcement Academy (LEA), out on Jaguar and Cerrillos. The LEA has the worst police training in our state, bar none. ... The LEA course is 675 hours, vs 1,142 for the State Police. ... Las Cruces cops get 1,000 hours of training, and their police force is comparable to SFPD. ...

The LEA also get the least defensive tactics training of all the academies; 62 hours vs 137 for the State Police. This might explain why SFPD cops seem to know only how to mug and shoot people. Nonviolent holds to control prisoners, and things like pepper spray, seem beyond their ken. ...

Will District Attorney Marco Serna rise to the occasion? ... This will tell us a good bit about Serna, and chances for reform in Santa Fe.

SOME OTHER OPTIONS In addition to saving the Greer Garson Theatre, let’s start a public conversation about the other facilities on [SFUAD’s] centrally located campus and their potential uses. If the city is on the hook for these facilities anyway, perhaps they can be turned to uses that would advance our intentions as a nurturing, developing community, investing in citizen needs.

For example: Residence halls and food services spaces—many possible conversions imaginable, and could be multi-use on different floors/ wings; ie: Emerging artists and visiting artists live/work studio spaces; Low-income housing; Affordable senior housing; Youth hostel; Halfway house/managed living for people in transition; Bed and breakfast conversions— could be paired with hospitality training.

Classrooms for those much-needed pre-K programs, could be paired with student teacher or classroom assistant training.

Community gardens—growing plots and some “learn to grow” training.

Office and shared services space for nonprofits, NGOs, service organizations, incubator businesses, etc.

I’m sure many creative ideas can come from the community if we look to our existing local needs and not just search for commercial buyers who will be tempted to knock down and redevelop the land far in advance of the facilities losing their usefulness.

n the world of liberal and progressive politics, there have been perhaps no more effective boogeymen than Charles and David Koch. The billionaire Kansas businessmen have played an outsized role in conservative causes in the new millennium.

After at least a four-year hiatus, the Koch brothers-founded nonprofit Americans for Prosperity is back in New Mexico and prepared to spend during the upcoming election cycle.

“Broadly speaking, we advocate for the framework for a free society,” says AFP state director Robert “Burly” Cain.

“I have seen time and again how devastating the government can be when it’s used in the wrong way.”

Cain is a native New Mexican and has recently worked on the presidential campaign of Libertarian and former governor Gary Johnson.

He tells SFR the state has failed to lift up the public education system, hold down heath care costs in check and ease the burden on entrepreneurs. “It’s a really challenging environment for people to start businesses here. And it’s getting harder,” Cain says.

While the Kochs have publicly distanced themselves from AFP in recent years, the nonprofit isn’t required to disclose its donors, so the extent of their financial support is unknown. As an IRS-designated 501(c)(4) nonprofit, the group has to spend the majority of its money on “social welfare” issues and education. That can include lobbying and political advertising, as long as AFP doesn’t endorse or oppose a specific candidate and doesn’t spend the majority of its money on political activities.

Cain started with AFP on May 1 and says he’ll open an Albuquerque office soon, with plans to identify locations for satellite offices in the near future. Santa

Fe is in the running, he says. AFP plans an advocacy training session, something it calls the Grassroots Leadership Academy, next month, as well as the start of a speakers’ series in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Las Cruces. He hasn’t announced the speakers.

Democratic Party of New Mexico Chair Richard Ellenberg isn’t likely to attend, calling AFP’s positions “extreme” and targeted to benefit millionaires and billionaires.

“Americans for Prosperity forces their ideology without recognizing the culture and the needs of our state. We cannot allow two billionaires to buy political influence in our state,” he tells SFR in a statement.

“There are those who want to make some of our donors out to be bad people because they’ve been successful,” Cain says of the opposition he knows is out there. “They’re wonderful people. The organization itself has done incredible things around the country.

“I think anyone who wants to take a minute to talk to me will learn that whether it’s criminal justice reform, tax reform, good government … I think they’ll see there’s a lot of work we do that they’ll appreciate.”

Paul Gessing, of the libertarian-oriented think tank the Rio Grande Foundation, partnered recently with AFP to oppose a gas tax increase in Albuquerque to pay for maintenance and improvement of Duke City roads.

“To the extent that we’re in alignment, we’ll work with them,” Gessing tells SFR over the phone. He points out that the Rio Grande Foundation takes more of a policy approach to its activities than a political approach, but says it’s not uncommon for AFP’s political stance to line up with the foundation’s policy statements.

Equally, if not more, important than having political camaraderie is having money to back it up.

“We welcome them back to a liberal-leaning state,” Gessing says. “There’s just not a lot of political money here, but it seems to me that it’s an unbalanced ledger.”

If there’s one thing AFP knows how to do, it’s spend money.

Long Hot Summer Despite programming on the books, Santa Fe parents still want more things for their kids to do in the summer

BY AARON CANTÚ a a r o n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

N

early a fifth of Santa Fe’s population is under 18 years old, according to the US Census Bureau, meaning there are around 15,000 kids out of school for the summer every year looking for activities to occupy their days. While both the city and the school district offer programming for some kids at various points in the summer, there are thousands who wouldn’t be able to join a program even if they wanted to because of limited resources.

Inside the Genoveva Chavez Community Center on a drizzly June afternoon, Marciela Brooks Gomez sits with her 11-year-old daughter, Anahi Damian, lunching on goopy nachos dressed with jalapeño slices. She jokes that her daughter will then exercise at the center’s facilities for an hour and a half after they finish eating, which is part of the reason they’re here: The family nutritionist gave them a pass to use the facilities for free throughout June as part of the Comunidad, Ejercicio, Nutrición y Acción (CENA) Program, an initiative out of La Familia Medical Center to prevent and alleviate obesity, particularly within youth populations.

“When she was in the house, she wanted to eat and eat,” Gomez says. She also

laments all the time Anahi would pass in front of the TV, and is especially wary of it now, with a president who has said things on air that are “hurtful” for kids. After this month, she says that their family will go on a trip to Acapulco, Mexico, where they have a small house, before returning to Santa Fe so Anahi can begin sixth grade at Ortiz Middle School.

Across the small snack area, Alice Jaramillo sits with her grandson Tyler Edimo, a rising fourth grader at EJ Martinez Elementary School, as he bounces a small ball around the table. Last summer, Jaramillo says, Tyler participated in a tennis program, but his plans are a little less clear now: His working mother would like to provide more reading instruction at home, and maybe he’ll help around the house. But Jaramillo is adamant that Santa Fe does not provide enough programming for children in the summer months.

“I wish the city or somebody would think more of the kids in Santa Fe,” she says. “They need to do more things. …

Maybe grandmas and other people, we can all get together and raise money and offer a free book camp for the kids. We’ve been thinking about doing free hot dogs and things like that to give them. I wish that mentors and people would rise up.”

She pleaded with this reporter to be in touch about possible programs where she could enroll Tyler.

City summer youth programs at the Monica Roybal Center have a new twist this year with more field trips.

Chris Sanchez, the director of community services for the City of Santa Fe, urged parents who feel similarly to contact his office.

“I don’t know if we’ve ever turned one student away,” Sanchez tells SFR. He’s referring to the city’s Summer Youth Program, which offers close to 1,000 spots every year for kids ages 6 to 18 at seven different locations throughout the city. The eight-week program, which began on June 5, includes trips to various centers like the Española Valley Fiber Art Center and the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. It’s the first year that the program is formalized with this content; the summer youth program in past years mostly consisted of recreational activities. Funders are local, and include the county, Christus St. Vincent Hospital, the Brindle Foundation, the McCune Charitable Foundation and others. They’re all partners of the Santa Fe Community Educators Network, which itself is a project of the mayor’s Birth to Career Collaboration that defines summer school programming that hits on standard school subject curricula as a city-wide priority.

Although the cost of participating ranges between $40 and $240 based on reported income, the city reports that 49 percent of participants last year were from households making under $25,700 annually. Edith Martinez, the office manager for the Community Services Department, says the city will be measuring potential impact that the programs have on children during the school year.

NEWS “We’re doing a pre- and post-survey, and then we’re following it up with the schools to see test scores at the end of the year,” she says. “Track the kids that way to see if what we did in the summer made a difference.”

Sanchez says the city Summer Youth Program managers worked with the public schools to design its curriculum, and that Santa Fe Public Schools also has a dozen different enrichment programs for students in the summers, though they don’t accommodate more than a few hundred students and most are offered for only a limited portion of the summer. Many are free, but some cost money: For example, the music and arts summer program, which enrolls 88 kids, costs between $250 and $300, with only 12 students getting partial scholarships this year.

Budget cuts at the state level also hammered one summer program shown to benefit low-income students. The K-3 Plus program in Santa Fe, which lengthens the school year by 25 days before the start of a new school year, saw 250 students cut from its roster. Some spots were restored using money from the Santa Fe Community Foundation and redirected federal funds (whose future also seems imperiled), according to SFPS Superintendent Veronica Garcia.

“Extended learning time during the summer is very important to ensure that children don’t fall behind academically in the summer months,” Garcia tells SFR. “I wish that we had the funding to ensure that every family who wants their child to participate in extended learning would have the opportunity to do so.”

At the Albertsons on Zafarano Drive, Paolina Enriquez pushed around a cart with her 3-year-old son and two middle school-aged nieces in tow. Both girls say they’ve spent most of the summer watching TV and playing around, although one says she hoped to join a “girl’s group.”

Enriquez’ son wasn’t old enough to be in school yet, but when he is, she’d like to enroll him sports-focused programs in the summers. But she worries about finding out about such programs in time, echoing worries of other parents who spoke to SFR. “They should publish [information about the programs] on Facebook,” Enriquez says. “That’d be easy.”

For more information about the city’s Summer Youth Program, visit santafenm.gov/summer_youth_program or call Edith Martinez, office manager for the Community Services Department, at 955-6568.

Stop and Smell Them Harvey Cornell Rose Park is old enough to get the senior discount

BY JULIE ANN GRIMM e d i t o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

JULIE ANN GRIMM

oses don’t really have a predictable lifespan. With the right circumstance and care, their blooms can grace generations, looking and smelling lovely and growing limber and green each spring.

Not so with those who care for them.

Jack Ortega and his wife Juanita have been active members of the Santa Fe Rose Society since the 1980s, when they first met with a lively group of local aficionados who busily tend to one of Santa Fe’s best-known city parks.

Now, though, the group’s membership is dwindling and its current cast can’t keep up with the demands of more than 400 rose plants at the Harvey Cornell Park. But from the difficulty grew a new way for the flower of friendship to blossom in the garden with the Santa Fe Master Gardeners, explains Jack, rose society president.

“The reason for that was that our society got older—both it, and in age of the participants—and we really couldn’t maintain the garden as we liked,” he tells SFR. “So we partnered with the Master Gardeners, and thanks to them, the garden in the last three or four years has really begun to flourish once again.”

Bindweed had threatened to choke the roses. Through the partnership, volunteers completing a 16-week “master” course and a 30-hour community project

have almost completely eradicated that problem. Having the rose park among its projects puts more bodies on the job, says Master Gardener Cindy Hoffman, one of the group’s coordinators.

Ortega says the city has also taken renewed interest in the park in recent years, helping with tree trimming when too much shade hit the garden, and providing mulch and fertilizer for volunteers to spread among the bushes.

And this year is a special one: the 60th anniversary of the rose garden’s formal opening and a gathering to mark the occasion on Saturday June 17.

Situated on the south side of Cordova Road at its intersection with Galisteo Street, the park is a narrow sliver set aside by the neighborhood’s developers in 1957 when it marked Santa Fe’s edge as it moved southward. Namesake Cornell designed the garden area at the request of the newly formed rose society when he retired in the city, according a story published in the Santa Fean in 1976. Club members have kept it going ever since.

Some details have slipped away over time. When organizers first envisioned this summer’s event about nine months ago, they thought it would be a great time to identify what’s growing there.

“That proved to be harder than we had imagined,” Ortega tells SFR. “We had an initial list of roses that were planted between 1965 and 1969, which we think is a baseline for the roses in the garden, and then we came across another list of ros-

es that is dated 1998. So there are a little over 425 roses in the garden. And we have two lists that really are not matching up very well.”

Rose nomenclature is a celebrated part of the garden scene. Some are wellknown or have been passed down enough to endure: Those grapefruit-sized blooms with pale yellow centers and pink edges on the garden’s east side are “peace roses;” the smaller white ones across the sidewalk from the central fountain are known as “moonbeam;” a short bush with tiny pink blooms is “fairy.”

This time next year, Ortega, Hoffman and others expect to pick up the identification project again.

Who knew that roses could be so prolific in the high desert?

“I think the garden is a testament,” says Ortega. “During the drought years those were pretty tough, and we got absolutely no rain and we were on heavy-duty water restrictions and the roses adapted naturally. … They are survivors. The garden has been there for such a long time, and they have established a root system and they receive adequate care for where they are at and they do very well.”

From the south-facing walls in Bellamah to the front walks of Casa Alegre and the plot outside the Santuario de Guadalupe, it’s peak season for not just the public rose garden but the whole city.

Master Gardeners and the Rose Society are offering two free educational opportunities in the garden: a clinic on deadheading on Saturday July 8 and one about getting ready for winter (already?!) on Saturday Aug. 5, both at 9 am. While Hoffman and other volunteers welcome this kind of help, she’s got one request for visitors. It’s tempting to snip a bloom or two, but please simply sniff instead.

“I wish people would not pick the roses,” she says. “Because this garden is so special in Santa Fe, because it’s been done by volunteers for Santa Fe, we would hope the people in Santa Fe would not only enjoy it but also protect it.”

hristopher Short is sitting in a booth at the Santa Fe Airport Grill, eating a late lunch with pals Jennifer Winkel and Laila Nabulsi. In a little more than an hour, Nabulsi is flying out to Los Angeles, via the nonstop jet to Phoenix.

“It’s fantastic,” Nabulsi says of the airport terminal. “It’s like a train station. I love small airports.”

“I don’t think they get much smaller,” Short chuckles, tucking into his lunch.

Nabulsi flew into Albuquerque from LA to start her trip. But for convenience, she’s flying back to California out of Santa Fe. It didn’t require much more effort than checking a box on an internet travel site.

Short, who has lived in Santa Fe for a little more than a year, didn’t even know it was an option.

“I don’t know why,” he says between bites of a burrito. “I guess I just never thought of it.”

In fact, Short mistakenly believed that a flight from Santa Fe would necessarily connect through Albuquerque. He’s only

of the people who buy an airline ticket to visit Santa Fe actually fly to Albuquerque.

There’s plenty of room to grow, and doing so could give the city and the region an economic shot in the arm. But the community needs to figure out how to manage that feat without throwing money after ever-shifting airline routes and endless improvements to buildings, roads and runways.

It just might succeed.

MORE FLIGHTS Santa Fe Municipal Airport Manager Cameron Humphres has the perpetually busy look of a guy with an ever-expanding job description. His smile comes easier than you might expect, though. His tidy office is testament to his past career in the Air Force. So, too, may be his apparent comfort with the fact that it’s in a manufactured building that has taken on an air of permanence.

Comfort or no, Humphres has more to do than worry about where his desk is.

He started the job in March 2016 and has hardly had time to catch his breath.

ever flown in and out of that city’s International Sunport.

Santa Fe has only a handful of direct commercial flights linking it to major airports—to Dallas, Denver and Phoenix— but the city, the business community and the tourist industry are hungry for more.

City and county governments are willing to shell out cash to guarantee full-flight revenue for airlines when all seats aren’t sold. Businesses as far away as Taos Ski Valley have kicked in money, too.

When those flights land, though, passengers are greeted with a mixed experience. It’s something everyone seems anxious to fix.

Santa Fe’s terminal building looks the way a small airport terminal is supposed to look. From runway 2-20, the northeast-southwest strip of pavement that handles nine out of every 10 flights, the control tower commands the horizon above the low, flat, stuccoed terminal building. Its windows are tinted against the high desert sun, canted outward with an antenna array forming a crown.

It’s not just the aesthetic of the place that charms, it’s the experience.

Passengers deplane not into a sterile jetway, but onto the tarmac. The weather is right there.

The fresh air. The ground. It’s quintessentially New Mexican.

Get inside that terminal, though, and things are less quaint.

Oh, it’s still a cool vibe. The place opened in 1957 and there’s reportedly still adobe in some of the walls. The sliding glass doors at the end of the terminal get propped open on nice days and, combined with a southerly wall of windows, natural light floods the place.

That’s a good thing, because it’s tiny. If you’re tall, you can practically reach from the rental car counter to the United Airlines ticket kiosk on the other side of the terminal. The dozen or so seats outside the secure area fill up fast. There’s only one TSA checkpoint, and it’s not always open.

The cafe serves solid airport fare, but seating there is limited, too. Like Nabulsi said, it has an old-school bus terminal vibe—a nice one—but it’d be small even for that.

Mexico community,” Humphres tells SFR. Right now, it isn’t close. Humphres says the last time he saw a fare comparison, Santa Fe was within $20 of Albuquerque on many flights. Add time saved, plus gas and parking costs, and the more convenient option is actually cheaper, too.

But the state Department of Transportation says Santa Fe misses out on $240 million in direct economic impact generated by people who are coming to Santa Fe, but doing it via Albuquerque’s airport.

That’s almost 1,500 jobs, Humphres says.

Getting even a small piece of that pie would be a big deal.

“To be clear, Santa Fe Municipal Airport is never going to be a Sunport or a Dallas-Ft. Worth or anything like that,” Humphres adds. Right now, only 5 percent of the airport’s traffic is commercial.

Doubling that would be a coup for the airport.

He’s not alone in thinking that way.

YOUTH MURAL WORKSHOP

Flight Plans group won $700,000 in federal and state grants and leveraged the money to negotiate a once-daily flight from Phoenix.

The money can be used for advertising and revenue guarantees—essentially paying American Airlines if its passenger loads are too low.

The flight started in December and city tourism director Randy Randall says the alliance expects to come close to breaking even with the flight in just its second quarter. With two years of pledged support to the airline, Randall thinks the flight can become a reliable moneymaker for American.

It’s a different strategy than before, when the airport lost a direct flight to Los Angeles on American in 2015. The surprise blow was also the kick in the pants the community needed.

“I think that we realized that by doing nothing except getting excited when a new flight was announced and disappointed when a flight left, we weren’t doing anything to get off that rollercoaster,” Randall says.

The alliance started with a phone call from Chris Stagg, vice president at Taos Ski Valley. Stagg, who’s been at the ski area since the 1970s, says the resort’s new owners were eager to get in on expanded air travel.

“In the early ’90s, Big Sky, Jackson Hole, Telluride and Taos all did the same number of skier days, more or less,” he tells SFR. “Taos was actually a little bigger. Now, they are all doing twice as

many skier days as we did here last year.

One of the reasons is air service.”

Taos has its own airport, of course, which is getting a new runway that should open in the middle of August.

But Stagg says the local airport will never serve all the people who want to come to the resort, which is about 20 minutes away. And even if the community does score regional jet service, it will likely be seasonal.

“To me, one of the advantages of Santa Fe is you don’t have to do that. … You can have this year-round destination,” he says. The trip from Santa Fe to Taos Ski Valley isn’t as short as Salt Lake City to Park City, Utah. But it’s easily comparable to the trip from Denver to the closest major ski areas in Colorado. Or from Montrose, Colorado to the boutique Western Slope ski town of Telluride.

People in Texas know about Santa Fe and Taos. People in LA do, too. But one of the challenges for the alliance is convincing people in Phoenix that Northern New Mexico isn’t just a mildly different version of Sedona or Flagstaff—two Arizona communities that are within a couple hours’ drive from Phoenix.

As if to reinforce the point he made to Randy Randall when he pitched the alliance, Stagg says Santa Fe’s airport had to do something.

“You could look to airlines and the community of Santa Fe now and say, ‘Look, we’re making something happen,’” Stagg says. “We weren’t just

standing around talking about it.”

The alliance landed early donations from the city, county and Taos Ski Valley of $50,000 each and went hunting for more business partners to leverage the grants, which require matching funds.

The city has since added $100,000 for advertising to the effort, and $15,000 to hire an executive director: former College of Santa Fe president Stuart Kirk.

“It’s a focus on the airport, but the real reason for getting the airlines to fly here is to stimulate economic growth in Northern New Mexico,” Kirk tells SFR. “It’s been proven by lots of research that a good, active airport … has become a foundation for economic growth.”

That’s the pitch to local businesses, and it’s had success. Part of the reason is the city plans to spend a lot of money improving the plucky little airport.

TERMINAL IMPROVEMENTS In fact, the city recently dropped $1.1 million making basic accommodations for post-9/11 security measures. As the US improved its pre-flight screening, the de-

mands for safe travel ate into the convenience of it.

The airport’s single TSA checkpoint is not usually busy (airport officials say arriving an hour early is plenty of time). But it takes up space. These days, passengers like to clear security so they can relax. Up until last year, that meant getting through a checkpoint into a cramped room that didn’t have food or even bathrooms. Not terribly relaxing. The walk onto the tarmac before boarding must have felt like stepping out of prison if the flight and waiting area were full.

Now, there are bathrooms and vending machines. There’s a separate arrival area, too. It’s unquestionably a better experience for passengers once they’re past the TSA checkpoint. But it was all crammed into the existing footprint. And if passengers gained space past security, they lost room before it. The space needed for other airport operations has encroached on the passenger experience, too.

“I don’t think Santa Fe Municipal Airport is living up to being a good representative of our community,” Humphres, the

airport manager, says frankly. “It’s a great airport, it has a charming terminal building—but nevertheless, we need to make sure that we have the infrastructure that can support both the flight operations and our passenger operations. The terminal really isn’t nearly adequately sized to handle its current operations.”

That’s diplomatic of him. Perhaps grossly so. The terminal measures 9,700 square feet. To handle the airport’s needs now and a couple of decades into the future, the facility should be 30,000 to 40,000 square feet. A memo presented to City Council committees this month suggests spending $35 million over the next five years to design and build a new terminal.

It makes sense, of course, that if taxpayers are going to pay to improve the place, they should make sure it will hold up to more use and not just handle what’s there now. But that’s a big commitment, especially when the airport is still trying to lock down its current handful of commercial flights Paying for those improvements can be an arduous process, made more difficult by a puzzling wrinkle in state law: New Mexico is the only state in the country that pulls state funding from airports that charge landing fees for private aircraft.

The prohibition is enshrined in state law.

That might seem like an egalitarian consideration, but at airports like Santa Fe, it costs the city $200,000 to $300,000 each year. That’s money that has to be made up in other charges. The airport assesses larger ramp fees to planes kept overnight and it gets a few more cents of every gallon of aviation-grade fuel pumped at the airport. Private pilots who have smaller planes may be spared a landing fee, but they’re not spared the higher cost of gas or the greater charge to keep their plane on the tarmac.

Bob Hudson, president of the New Mexico Airport Managers’ Association and the airport manager for Moriarty, says that many smaller airports wouldn’t bother charging landing fees even if they were able to do so. An airport like Moriarty’s, for example, doesn’t get the kind of heavier jet traffic that causes the wear and tear that necessitates a landing fee.

“When they come here, they stay in our hotels and eat food at our restaurants,” he tells SFR of recreational pilots. That’s business Moriarty can use.

Heavier jets, though, like the kind that fly into Santa Fe privately but in some cases rival the size of commercial regional jets, do have an impact on the runways, taxiways and parking areas (ramps) that cost money to maintain. If Santa Fe could charge landing fees without risking state funding, it could exempt lighter planes, keeping the city accessible for recreational pilots while finding a more equitable way of paying for the maintenance and facilities necessary to handle heavier private planes.

Airport managers figure out all sorts of ways to keep the runways and doors open at their facilities, but Hudson says New Mexico’s system takes one useful option off the table.

“We are the only state around that does this,” he says. “I don’t know what the arguments were [when the law was passed] or why it was set up that way.”

New Mexico Department of Transportation spokeswoman Emilee Cantrell would not respond to SFR’s request to interview someone about the history of the law, its impact or efforts to change it. It’s not something that could be done administratively; the Legislature would have to change the law to return the option to charge landing fees.

As much as Santa Fe might like to have a bigger terminal, it needs a better runway first. The city is in the midst of a $4.7 million project to improve runway 2-20. The vast majority of the money comes from the Federal Aviation Administration; the city and state split the roughly 6 percent CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

that’s not paid for by the FAA. The city hopes to go to bid on the project as soon as the FAA gets a budget from Congress.

That’s just part of what needs to be done. The city has closed a crosswind runway because it’s in such disrepair. It only handled 1 percent of the airport’s traffic and was technically a third runway option, so the FAA won’t pay for its repair.

Of greater concern is the taxiway that planes use to get from the southwest end of the main runway to the terminal. Called Taxiway Delta, it’s underdesigned for the heavy planes now using it. It’s dipped, unstable and will cost another $6.6 million to repair. Again, most of that comes from the FAA, but it also takes time and effort for Humphres and other city staffers.

The city has drafted an amendment to the master plan that anticipates a new terminal, but the reality of running an airport that first handled traffic in the early 1940s is safety first, comfort later.

A GRAND(ISH) ENTRY If all of this is going to come together for Santa Fe—more flights, better runways, a more functional terminal—a new way to actually get to the airport is critical.

At a recent city committee meeting, Reed Liming, a division director in charge of long-range planning, euphemistically described the approach to the airport on Aviation Drive this way: “Passengers get to, um, experience our wastewater treatment plant as they drive to the terminal.”

They also get to pass a junkyard full of old cars.

It doesn’t look good and, when the wind is wrong, it doesn’t smell good either. But Humphres isn’t turning up his nose at what’s there. “Those are important aspects of any city, you know? You’re going to have light industrial and that type of use. But nevertheless, it doesn’t really provide a very good visual entrance or exit,” he says.

There are plans for that, too.

In May, the City Council approved a resolution that adds to the Impact Fee

Fixed-based operators handle service for many private pilots who use the airport. Jet Center at Santa Fe was the site of a business gala this month.

Capital Improvements Plan a $1.7 million extension of Jaguar Drive from the as-yetunopened interchange with Highway 599 to the airport’s front door.

“It’s a grand entrance. And I don’t think that we have to spend a lot of money on a grand entrance, but I think it’s appropriate to have an entrance to the gateway to the community that well represents the community,” says Humphres.

The road would be just across the highway from the Village Plaza at Tierra Contenta development. Theoretically, the entire area could see a development boom, though it’s a ways off.

The developer, Katharine Cook Fishman, and her late father Richard Cook, actually agreed to pay for the road in an annexation agreement signed eight years ago. As is common with such contracts, though, there’s no timeline for constructing the extension to the airport.

“There’s a reason for that. The councilors who are sponsoring this, and the may-

or as well, would like to see that road built sooner rather than later,” Santa Fe Asset Development Director Matt O’Reilly explains.

By adding the project to the capital improvements list, it qualifies for an impact fee offset credit. It’s a little complicated, but it’s basically an incentive. If the developer builds the road now, at current costs, the price of the project can be used to offset future impact fees.

Scott Hoeft of the Santa Fe Planning Group says the road extension isn’t a short-term priority for the developer, who has sunk millions into the project already, but it has the potential to make a difference.

The extension would open up 300 acres of land that belongs to the developer on the south side of it, a project tentatively called The Pavilions. It would also create access to 85 acres of city-owned land that O’Reilly says people have long assumed would be a city-owned business park. Revenue from

that kind of development, both leases and taxes, would go a long way toward helping the airport pay its bills.

O’Reilly likes the look of the plan—even without much in the way of detail. “Air travel is a big part of economic development,” he tells SFR. “And by the way, if that road isn’t built, the city land is not able to be developed.”

Getting everything to work in concert at the airport isn’t easy. It looks simple from the outset; as simple as sprucing up a classic terminal, pouring some new concrete on the runway and building a short road.

Like flying itself, though, what looks simple often is not. There are seemingly endless variables and the commercial aviation industry offers no guarantees. If Santa Fe—and Northern New Mexico—can expand the city’s airport sensibly, creating convenience without losing character, the airport could be piloting an economic renaissance into the coming decades.

I Can Make You Ice Cream, We Could be a Sweet Team Pop-up party lets local creatives shine Looking for a new-to-you vintage tee, tote bag or just a general good time?

Take a trip to the Southside this weekend to hit the Dandelion Pop-Up Market at Ghost. The market, a joint effort

by Calixte Raifsnider and Eliza Lutz— who recently took over the DIY concert space—is an opportunity to shop affordably and support local artisans, but also a time to mingle with the local creative community. “It’s basically an afternoon of summer fun with a lot of really great vendors: local favorites, plus some new faces who may become your favorites,” says Raifsnider. “We’re also going to have Freezie Fresh ice cream and the fortune teller Kassandra M.” You can get your hair done for $40 by Paris Mancini (the very same songstress of Matron Records’ PSIRENS) under the umbrella of her hair venture Flying Hair Salon, or see designer Jeremy Salazar, aka Happy Loco, who undertakes live-painting an outfit on a model. “It will just be good time and good people,” Raifsnider tells SFR, saying the pop-ups “always feel a little bit like a daytime party.”

Raifsnider hosted a pop-up market next to Betterday Coffee (907 W Alameda St.) in April, and she’s added even

more vendors to her roster for this upcoming event. She says finding New Mexico-based creators to participate hasn’t been difficult. “Some of them are people that I know, but also sometimes it’s just approaching a vendor I really respect,” she says. “I have people who are starting to approach me now, and vendors recommend friends of theirs—it’s been very organic.”

You can shop booths filled with goodies by Road Trip Journal Vintage, Utopian Conspiracy, Twig Works and others with inventories including books, records, jewelry, silkscreens on fabric and wood, collages, illustrations and more. Some sellers have access to credit card machines, but bring cash because you may fall in love with something at a booth that doesn’t.

Raifsnider says to come, even if shopping isn’t your gig. “It’s a little bit of something for everybody, even if you just want to come out and have some ice cream and see your friends.” (Maria Egolf-Romero) DANDELION POP-UP MARKET Noon-6 pm Saturday June 17. Free.

The Sky’s the Limit ( Almost ) What’s going on with Skylight anyway?

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

I

n late April, Skylight co-owner Kate Kennedy told SFR the nightclub would slow down regular operations in the wake of money issues and alcohol-related citations from the state. At the time, Kennedy stated that Skylight would close after it had presented its already-booked events, but she also owned up to high rents and bad timing after partners exited the business for other jobs. It seemed we’d lose the only mid-level venue with an actual stage and sound system in downtown Santa Fe. Cut to this month, and things are actually looking up; Skylight has obviously not closed, and their Thursday through Saturday night operating hours seem as popular as ever with DJs and one-off events.

We spoke with co-owner/founder Joe Ray Sandoval to get more information on what’s up and what the future might hold.

SFR: Can you provide some insight on why exactly we all seemed to think Skylight would close?

Joe Ray Sandoval: The rumor mill always gets out of hand—it’s a small town.

The day-to-day stuff we had to let go, it’s just not lucrative. There just aren’t enough people going out during the week. ... It just doesn’t make sense to be open if we’re not generating income. But Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, these

are mostly good nights. I love having our space and operating how we want, but it’s not sustainable. That initial rumor mill underestimated [Skylight landlord] David Barker’s business acumen and also my resilience.

So how does it work now?

Now we’re on a month-to-month lease, and it costs less. Like I said, David Barker is a smart businessman, and in order for us to make money, we need to be open.

We got behind on some of our payments, yeah, but we’re paying that back, and we’re able to operate on the nights we’re going to have events.

Was this just a matter of people not coming out to Skylight?

We lost some shows, yeah; we got outbid on some shows. We were a business that started with $50,000, and the fact we pulled it off as long as we did is nothing short of a miracle. We have a pie, and it’s only one size, and now that there are other venues … it’s good for the city and the community of Santa Fe, but that has hurt our business. The month-to-month thing could be indefinite, we could close in a year but, ultimately, people would have to support it.

Are more people supporting now that they know it might go away?

I think that’s starting to happen. But I think people heard we were closed and wrote us off. We struggled over whether to close down or regroup. My management team wanted to close, but I fought against that. I realized that if we stopped, we wouldn’t have the momentum or the

money without outside financing to make it work. And that’s in the works. I’ve spoken with people about partnering with us, possible cash infusions, possibly reopening with a new look and attitude.

Did you lose any staff ?

We did, but we were bound to because some of the shifts were going away. We want people to work here, we want their paychecks to clear—which they do—and we told them all, ‘Here’s what’s going on, if you guys need to find other jobs, we understand.’ I mean, I have side hustles; I drive Uber.

How are you feeling about it all now?

I don’t regret it. I’m not pissed off. It’s disheartening when people are like, ‘Oh, it’s too bad Skylight’s gone’ even though we never went anywhere. Look, if you’re going to a free concert on the Plaza, stop by and have a beer or a slice of pizza. We’re not going to compete with free and we’re not trying to, but what we do have is a very big space. We donate our space regularly because we think it’s good for the community and we’re part of the community.

Are you making plans for the future at this point?

The future plan is … we’re looking for and have had meetings with possible partners.

And honestly, if we can pull this off, we’ll consider renewing the lease. If we can make this a successful business, we’ll stay.

If it doesn’t work, we’ll bow out with our heads held high. Nothing we’ve ever done has been nefarious—we really thought we were going to close, but then I said, ‘Let’s find a way.’

Do you think people are putting too much faith in the midtown boom?

I think people want to go to what’s hot, and Meow Wolf is a beautiful space and amazing experience. I’m a lifetime member. Now that I know what Meow Wolf is doing, I’m going to be a straight-up nightclub. We’re going to do DJs, we’re going to do bands that bring 400 people, and we’re going to do local. We’re not going to fight for things that are out of our range. Going into summer, it’s not a great time for live music in brick-and-mortar spaces, but the truth is, there are still people who want to go out late-night. There are still a ton of tourists. I think we, as a city, need to foster businesses like mine. The people with money are always going to squeeze out the people without it, and we’re going to see businesses close. This is a pattern, over and over. I guess what I’m saying is, if you want to have a nightclub in Santa Fe, now’s the time to fight for it.

COURTESY FORM & CONCEPT

Matthew Mullins gets back to nature

A&C

And totally goes with the flow

BY LIZ BRINDLEY @lizbrindley_artwork

W

alk into any gallery on Canyon Road and you’ll likely encounter a landscape painting: stunning vistas, expansive skies, expensive prices. After a while, the subject is worn out. When artist Matthew Mullins moved to Santa Fe, he told himself he was not going to paint landscapes, but now that’s the main focus of his work.

“When I moved to New Mexico, I was aware of landscape painting’s presence in Santa Fe,” Mullins says in his greenhouse studio as rain lightly patters on the windows. “I didn’t want anything to do with it—it felt too safe. I was resistant to being influenced by the landscape. But then it became inevitable.”

A year ago, Mullins was creating an array of intensely photorealistic watercolors depicting museum basements and scientific storage facilities, drastically different environments than what he depicts today. Mullins tried to hold onto this practice when he arrived in the Southwest, but ultimately found it was forced.

The landscape’s call was too strong, and he had to shift gears. Mullins let go into the flow of new creative tides and began painting his surroundings.

But his interpretations do not follow the traditional trail of landscape paintings. Rather, they dive into an abstract realm where barriers of stark white geo-

metric lines cover the canvas and act as protectors of natural spaces. This veil of patterns is inspired by human design seen in quilts, tiles, tapestries—anything created by hand.

“In these paintings, I combine two disparate things,” Mullins explains. “The geometric pattern and the natural landscape. I want the pattern to help the landscape and the landscape to help the pattern to ultimately bridge the divide and make it as harmonious as possible.”

The layered composition of opposing forces makes our brains stumble for a moment as we try to make sense of what is going on. Mullins wants viewers to let go of the desire to “figure it out” and surrender to the visual experience.

“The pattern prevents instantaneous answers,” he says, “but if you give it even three seconds, your brain will start to make some sense of it—and that’s not a lot to ask, but it’s more than a lot of people are willing to give.”

Close observation reveals the natural world embedded into the process. Mullins incorporates a variety of elements into his paints including slate, zinc and nickel.

“I’m really into rocks. They have this special earth energy that we pick up on somehow; I usually have a rock in my pocket,” he shares, pulling out a reflective black stone. “Today I have a meteorite.”

This admiration for different elements of the earth recently led the artist to shift into sculpture. Furthering

Matthew Mullins fought it in the beginning, but New Mexico just kinda makes people want to create landscapes.

ecological exploration, Mullins collects gnarly chunks of wood and coats them entirely with graphite. This meditative exercise releases the human construct of time and falls into the natural rhythm of process.

“I like to get into these flow states, these trance states, where you’re really involved in the process,” he says. “With these sculptures, it’s just doing the one thing. It’s a simple process, but it’s a very focused process. You have to be really aware of every ridge of the wood to care for its delicate nature.”

By the time the process is complete, what was once a recognizable section of wood looks charred and mechanical, an appearance that radiates a futuristic feeling and grates against our traditional notions of nature. These sculptural works beg to be touched, but instead sit silent

on white gallery pedestals, frozen in time as projected future preservations of the present moment.

As for the future of Mullins’ artwork, he says he doesn’t have an exact plan. “I want to be surprised by the art process,” he tells SFR. “It’s like crossing a river with stepping stones. I’m only thinking about the next stone.”

Mullins’ landscapes are currently elevated on the walls of form & concept (435 S Guadalupe St., 982-8111), because sometimes that is what it takes for an everyday subject to be respected and seen. On view as part of the gallery’s oneyear anniversary exhibition through Oct. 22, Mullins’ hope for his pieces is that people will take time to slow down, let the visual patterns wash over them, and leave with a greater awareness of nature.

I’m almost 30 and I’m a virgin. I’m an overweight, straight-ish guy (I’m attracted to a few men, but those cases are exceedingly rare). I’ve also gone through an absolute hell life thus far, losing a testicle to cancer and having an abusive father who threatened a teenage me into celibacy by invoking the phrase “penile lobotomy” should I have sex with any girlfriends. I’ve barely dated in 10 years, and while I’m free from my father and the aforementioned mortal dick terror, I’m also INCREDIBLY scared about putting myself out there. I’m disabled, I’m not conventionally attractive by most standards, my whole zone down there is scarred up from surgeries, and, to top it all off, I’m on the small side. The last time I had the opportunity for sex, I went for it, but I was so terrified that I couldn’t keep it up. The woman I was with said something to the effect of “Well, I can’t do anything with that, now can I?” after which I asked her to leave because, seriously, that’s kind of an asshole thing to say. I’m notionally on Tinder and Bumble, but I really don’t know what I’m doing—and more often than not, I feel like the right thing for any theoretical partners would be for me to just stay in hiding and not inflict my grotesque presence on them. I’m scared of another humiliation, as that’s most definitely not my kink, and I’m at an age where my complete lack of experience and physical deformity are (I would have to imagine) major issues for anyone I might encounter. I truly want romance, sexuality, and companionship in my life. I haven’t fought through poverty, disability, physical and emotional abuse, and my genitalia trying to kill me to stay entombed in my office alone and unloved. I just do not know where to even begin.

-The Virgin Who’s Been Fucked A Whole Lot Just Never In The Good Way Off the top of my head…

Hire a sex worker. It will allow you to separate your anxieties about finding romance and companionship from your anxieties about being sexually inexperienced. A kind, indulgent, competent sex worker can relieve you of your virginity and help restore—or instill—confidence in your dick’s ability to get and stay hard in the presence of another human being. Be totally honest about your inexperience and your concerns. If you get the sense during negotiations—which should be brief and to the point—that the woman you’re talking to is impatient or uncaring, thank her for her time and start over. There are kind, caring, compassionate sex workers out there. Presumably you’ve got a computer in your office, TVWBFAWLJNITGW. Use it to find one.

Get out of the house. Go places, do things—as much as your disability and budget allow. Even if you have to go alone, go.

Even if the things you want to do are unlikely to put you in front of many/any women, do those things. You’re likelier to meet someone if you’re out of the house and moving through the world. Even if you don’t meet someone right away, you’ll feel less isolated and less alone. Even if you never meet someone (I’m not sugarcoating things—some people don’t), going places and doing things means you’ll have a rich and full and active life regardless.

You’re not alone. Okay, you’re alone—but you’re not alone alone. Meaning, there are women (and men) out there who feel just as paralyzed as you do—because they’re 30-year-old-or-older virgins, because they’re not conventionally attractive, because their first/only sexual experiences were just as humiliating, because they had traumatic childhoods and bear emotional scars. You want a woman to come into your life who is

patient and accepting and kind and willing to look past your disability and your inexperience and your difficult history. Be patient, accepting, kind, and similarly willing.

Get over those scars. I had a boyfriend a long time ago who had significant scarring on his balls and taint. He was a farm boy (sigh), and he fell on a piece of farm machinery and wound up straddling a scalding-hot pipe. I don’t know how that worked exactly, because I don’t know from farm machinery, but the pipe burned through his jeans and left third-degree burns on his balls, taint, and upper-upper thigh. Ten years later, we started going out—and guess what? I didn’t notice his scars. And not for want of opportunity: He was my first serious boyfriend, and I spent the better part of three months with my face in his crotch. The scars that were so obvious to him and left him feeling self-conscious about his genitals? They were invisible to me until he needlessly apologized for them. Genitals are a jumble of flesh and folds and hairs and colors and bits and pieces and sometimes scars, TVWBFAWLJNITGW. If you’re worried your scarring is noticeable, mention that you’re a cancer survivor and lost a ball but gained a sick (as in cool) scar.

Good luck, TVWBFAWLJNITGW. We’re rooting for you.

Your a faggot.

-Women Obsess Real Men

Your new here, WORM, aren’t you?

I’m a straight woman, and I’ve been dating my boyfriend for about eight months. We have a wonderful relationship and amazing sex.

There’s one thing he does in the bedroom, however, that I find off-putting and I was hoping you might be able to provide some insight.

About 25 percent of the time after he ejaculates, he briefly licks some of his come off his fingers. This kind of creeps me out. I’ve been with more than a few dudes, so I obviously understand that a woman eating their come is a common turn-on, but this is my first experience with this particular incarnation. At first I was worried my aversion might be rooted in some deeply buried homophobic beliefs, but we’ve discussed the idea of me pegging him, and that I can get behind. I think it’s more that this smacks of a certain egotism I find frivolous. Like, I wouldn’t go around shoving my fingers inside my pussy and rubbing the results all over my face. Typically we’re able to discuss any kind of conflict or confusion that arises between us, but this one seems tough to broach for me. Three questions: How common is this? Do I need to just get over it or should I try to talk to him about it?

Would most guys suck their own dick if they were able?

-Yearning Understanding Concerning Kink 1. It’s not common, YUCK, but it’s not unheard of, either. Maybe your boyfriend grew up with sex-phobic parents who blew up at the sight of a crusty sock—so he opted to destroy the evidence by eating it and developed a taste for it. Maybe he thinks his semen contains powerful woo-hoo-y masculine energy and wishes to retain some of it.

Maybe he had a girlfriend who thought it was hot to see him eat his come and he (wrongly) assumes it’s a turn-on for you, too.

2. Yes, you need to get over it and, yes, you should ask him about it. The former almost certainly requires the latter.

3. Every man on earth tries, a select few succeed, and we all would if we could. Even my new friend WORM. On the Lovecast, advice from a dominatrix on kinky parties: savagelovecast.com mail@savagelove.net @fakedansavage on Twitter ITMFA.org

THE CALENDAR with Duchess Dale

COURTESY DUCHESS DALE

Coinciding with National LGBTQ+ Pride Month, the Santa Fe Playhouse presents The Normal Heart, the seminal 1985 play about the AIDS crisis. Formerly Californiabased thespian Duchess Dale makes her Santa Fe directorial debut at its helm. Check out SFR’s review at SFReporter.com or catch a performance (7:30 pm Thursdays-Saturdays June 15-24; 2 pm Sundays June 18 and 25. $15-$25. Santa Fe Playhouse, 142 E De Vargas St., 988-4262). We caught up with Dale on opening weekend to find out more about directing the difficult play.

(Charlotte Jusinski) What was your own experience of the AIDS panic in the 1980s?

It was a combination of not knowing enough information, and also having it be a scare tactic. It evolved to the place of ‘Be careful, you can’t touch someone, you can’t kiss them, you can’t breathe the same air.’ I’ve always been in theater in one way or another, and in theater, there’s a different understanding about this— [much of the community was] gay. There was more of a pipeline of information. Even though the information nationally was still limited, at least there was a better understanding in the theater community. The red ribbon really came from Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, and it became something to champion, to bring forth the awareness that was missing on the national scene. I think I had more of an expanded compassion than the average Jane or Joe. … But we had no perspective. It was just fear and misinformation.

What kind of preparation went into putting together this production?

We were fortunate with this particular production.

At least two of the actors were there, in New York, at the time the play takes place. Both of them, being gay, were able to address it from a gay perspective, a theatrical perspective, and a citizen’s perspective. … They were able to say, ‘This is accurate, this did happen, this isn’t fictional literature or a playwright expounding for poetic license.’ Also, I had met with Dr. Joel Gallant at the Southwest CARE Center and did research from the medical standpoint. Any of the questions that came up from the cast, we were actually able to answer. I mean, it’s nice to do historical research and the internet is hugely valuable for that, but it was different to have one of our actors who lost his partner to AIDS. That creates a whole different energy about what we were approaching. There was a real openness and vulnerability that the cast was willing to share.

What was the most difficult thing that you and the cast encountered?

When you do a historical piece, you’re representing accurate words and people and situations. … It created an odd dynamic; it would be surreal to say certain things. One of my favorite lines that gives me chills is from the character Mickey, in the breakdown he has in act two. He says, ‘They are going to persecute us!

Cancel our health insurance. Test our blood to see if we’re pure. Lock us up. Stone us in the streets.’ We’re not just saying lines. This is a real situation right now, and that has a resonance to it, rather than just saying dialogue. What made it difficult was to make the dialogue honest and accurate, authentic to the play, and authentic to the actor … so that they were speaking truth.

the Westboro Baptist Church and politicians from the Christian Right, then, it is important that we view these characters as humans rather than as archetypes.

The God-fearing cousins would likely be the heroes of this show in West Texas or East Tennessee, but in Santa Fe, the characters take a little more caressing.

Dinah, here portrayed by Jody Durham, is the more sympathetic of the two, more flexible in her beliefs and more willing to understand her left-leaning cousins. Benedetti says he chose Patrick Briggs to play the hardliner conservative Bill because “he’s the kind of person you enjoy being around, and that helps to take some of the sting out of Bill.”

While the theme of religious conflict and what Benedetti calls “a juicy argument about medical marijuana” will be welcome in a social and political climate like Santa Fe’s, putting on a show partly about end-of-life issues could be a risky proposition here. Santa Fe has, after all, become a retirement hotspot. Benedetti points out that 70 percent of New Mexico Actors Lab tickets sold last year were at a senior discount. Will those folks necessarily want to be confronted by a play that looks death in the eye?

“Some people are extremely excited and supportive, and other people just don’t want to go near it,” Benedetti says of his perception of the Santa Fe audience.

“And there’s not much of a gray area.”

It seemed appropriate for NMAL to pair up with Coming Home Connection, a nonprofit that places volunteer companions with anyone who needs in-home care—including those with terminal illness.

Glenys Carl, who founded CHC, was first drawn to the concept of companionship by brutal necessity. After her adult son suffered a traumatic brain injury, she cared for him for three years.

When he eventually died from his injuries, Carl only grew more resolute in her mission to provide help to those most in need—low-income, uninsured, and those without families. After working with ALS, Parkinson’s and AIDS patients, she founded CHC in 2007. The organization trains volunteers to provide round-theclock care to sick or disabled Santa Feans.

In 2015, more than 300 volunteers helped almost 150 families.

There is an erroneous perception that those who retire to Santa Fe have pots of money and big adobe mansions to live out their days, but Carl points out that that just isn’t the case. Couples may lose their homes to medical bills, and social security doesn’t always cover what’s needed.

“When they become ill, they don’t have enough money, and there’s nowhere for them to go,” she says—so that’s where CHC volunteers step in.

CHC operates on a skeletal budget, and Carl hopes to soon purchase a modest home in town to provide live-in care for a few patients at a time.

Accordingly, Wednesday June 21 features a special benefit performance for the nonprofit. The first two Sunday performances (June 18 and 25) include a talk-back session with Carl after the show about questions and themes raised in the play.

Caring for someone with terminal illness or in hospice isn’t just walking on eggshells and waiting solemnly for the inevitable. It can be very much about life, and celebrating the living someone’s already done. There’s always more left to say and do.

Theater is no different; every show that “Just in the way that Shylock has has come across Santa Fe’s stages so far never been the same since the Holothis year could be looked at in an us- caust,” he says, referencing the grotesque versus-them, black-versus-white context. Shakespearian caricature of a Jewish The Quality of Life, however, does throw stereotype, “characters who represent into sharp contrast one stark, inevitable particular points of view are enormously truth: We’re all going to die. influenced by the environment in which Presented by the New Mexico Actors the play is performed.” With the rise of Lab and co-directed by Robert Benedetti and Nicholas Ballas, playwright Jane Anderson’s play details the interactions between two couples: Dinah and Bill, a staunch Christian couple from Ohio still reeling from the murder of their only daughter, and their Californian cousins Jeannette and Neil, aging hippies who live in a yurt in the woods and smoke plenty of weed.

Oh, and Neil is dying. It’s cancer, and it’s bad.

To say that the play is just about the end of life, though, lessens its accessibility. “It’s more about how the living deal with death than about death itself,” Benedetti says. The interactions and evolution of the characters outside the topic of Neil’s imminent death are potent and vital, especially considering the current political climate and the general leaning in Santa Fe. Initially, it feels very red-state-blue-state (but, as in all good writing, the The Quality of Life opens this weekend at Teatro Paraguas and tackles tough subjects, featuring Barbara Hatch lines quickly get blurred).

Food trucks have been a mainstay in the parking lot since the arts collective opened the sprawling House of Eternal Return at the former Silva Lanes Bowling Alley (1352 Rufina Circle, 395-6369) just over a year ago. There, you can get everything from tacos to shaved ice, and now, thanks to Eliot Chavanne and Connor Black and the backing of the collective, you can also sample classic Cajun cuisine.

Begin history lesson: Cajun is one of those things that people think they know, but the nuances are vast. Traditional Cajun has its origins in Canada. Yes, I know, but it’s true—the Acadian people, descendants of original French settlers in the far eastern provinces, were forced to relocate in to Louisiana the late 1700s, and the sudden shift in climate led to a radical shift in cooking styles, since Louisiana didn’t have the same ingredients as eastern Canada.

Many old dishes were abandoned, and what we now call Cajun developed naturally from there. Most confuse it with Creole, which is a blend of cooking from

the various settlers and Native peoples of southern Louisiana. The truck’s name comes from the “holy trinity” of Cajun cooking: onion, bell pepper and celery.

History lesson over.

Absent shade and scenery, the Meow Wolf parking lot is not the best place to experience food. Trinity Kitchen is a blazing white vehicle with a small porch extension on its back end. The side is emblazoned with a beachy retro-futurist kinda logo. The menu sits outside, written on a chalkboard. Chavanne and Black are the staff and cooks behind the window. They rotate through a classic spread of dishes: Po’boys, gumbo, étouffée, fried chicken and waffles, boudin, beignets, and pecan-smoked baby back ribs. The day I stopped by, the list included classic pulled pork, oysters, crawfish and jackfruit.

I joked with Chavanne about buying one of everything, but even if I had, the prices would have made it not entirely unreasonable. I was meeting a friend but decided to order while I waited. I went for the crawfish beignets ($8) and the unusual jackfruit po’boy ($10). As I finished, my friend arrived and placed an order for gumbo ($10) and pulled pork fries ($8).

The food was going to take a few minutes so I checked out the back end of the truck. The custom porch extension houses a nice smoker. It smelled amazing,

smoke billowing into the lot, a bag of applewood nearby. In the distance, a storm gathered around the Jemez.

Black called out my name and I collected my trays of food and decided to head inside the main building. (This has nothing to do with the truck, but Meow Wolf would do their patrons well by adding some form of sun coverage to their small picnic area.)

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: • The sandwich is stuffed with fillings • The beignets look more like hushpuppies • My friend’s gumbo came in a cardboard tray that was less than liquid-tight Chavanne has previously been a sous chef, a butcher and a seafood slinger.

Those varied experiences inform his cooking and it comes out in the flavor. I

went for the po’boy first. Jackfruit is one of those weird fruits that easily takes the place of meat in recipes; here it took the spot of what could be pulled pork. Light with hints of pineapple, the fruit was meaty and delicious. The spices combined in a slow burn. It took four bites before I felt the back-of-the-palate peppery

heat. The barbecue sauce was smooth, the coleslaw was tart but not too obvious. I ate half of the thing quickly before I remembered the other dish. And I still have to remind myself that this was a meat-free sandwich. It really felt like pulled pork.

I had to eat two of the beignets to really get a grasp of what was going on. I’ve not had a savory beignet. In Cajun cooking they find a spot similar to that of sopaipillas in New Mexican cuisine. They are an after-meal cleanser and are sweet and donut-like; I’ve only had them doused in powdered sugar. Here, Chavanne has turned them into a crawfish fritter. They looked like hushpuppies but were clearly made with beignet dough. The light sweetness of the dough married with the smokiness of the crawfish and the veggies and a nice side of remoulade, a spiced aioli with French origins.

It’s clichéd to talk about the quality of food that comes out of the food truck end of the industry. The oohs and ahhs of pretending that quality can’t come from a window cut into the side of an old van is outdated. Trinity Kitchen is still a step up in the local game, though, and is enviable food by any standard. While I didn’t order it, my friend and I were able to sneak a small sample of the pulled pork. It was incredibly good.

As of now, Trinity will stick closely to Meow Wolf, only moving for special events such as the International Folk Art Market on Museum Hill (July 14-16) and the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in October.

Find Trinity Kitchen at Meow Wolf every day except Tuesday. They open and close with Meow Wolf (10 am-8 pm Monday, Wednesday and Thursday; 10 am-10 pm Friday and Saturday).

The Mummy Review

BEST MOVIE EVER

Who’s the real monster here?

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m

Where does one even begin in dismantling any far-fetched high hopes for a quality reboot (sort of, but more on that soon) of The Mummy with Tom Cruise? First off, Cruise at this point is really more of an onscreen presence than actual thespian. Rather than sink his teeth into anything, Cruise remains content to sprint towards things or away from things and make silly quips and one-liners while doing his best to not look as short as he actually is next to his leading ladies.

Here Cruise plays Nick Morton, an American solider of some kind who, along with his reluctant cohort Vail (New Girl’s Jake Johnson), disregards orders to traipse around the Middle East stealing artifacts to sell on the black market. It’s absurd—and not in a fun, Indiana Jones kind of way because at least Indy was all like, “It belongs in a museum!” It’s more like, Cruise-isn’t-ascharming-as-he-thinks-and-who-the-hell-decided-to-try-and-inject-humor-into-this-movie kind of way. During a routine theft attempt in Iraq, Nick and Vail unwittingly discover the ancient tomb (or is it?!) of an Egyptian princess (Sofia Boutella) who was buried alive for making a deal with the god Set so she could be all kinds

of powerful. Wouldn’t you know it, though—they awaken her, she’s pissed and she’s gonna give Set Nick’s body so he can have dominion over life and death which, frankly, doesn’t sound all bad to us.

Along for the ride is a beautiful archaeologist named Jennifer (Annabelle Wallis) with whom Nick shares one of those oh-so-playfully combative relationships (but they probably care deeply about each other). Jen has secrets of her own, though, like how she works for Russell Crowe who—twist!—plays Dr. Jekyll. Yes, yes— that Dr. Jekyll. See, Universal Studios is clearly telegraphing a return to their monster movie stable of yesteryear, and with sly nods to properties like the Creature from the Black Lagoon and vampires and stuff, it becomes clear to film fans (read: people of a certain age) that there’s plenty more where this came from whether we like it or not.

The exposition becomes downright gratuitous at a certain point, and it isn’t long before we realize we’ve just been watching running punctuated by a few face-punches, and whatever light elements of Egyptology may have made it through seem squandered to a fault. No, this film is not as goofy-fun as the 1999 Brendan Fraser romp, and even far-superior CGI and a lack of The Rock don’t make up for a dragging plot, god-awful writing and another forgettable turn from Cruise.

Killing time? Knock yourselves out. Looking for something even slightly good? Move on.

JEREMIAH TOWER: THE LAST MAGNIFICENT

BAND AID

++ LISTER-JONES IS PHENOMENAL -- UNNECESSARY PSYCHEDELIC DRUG SCENE

Actor/writer Zoe Lister-Jones (New Girl) comes out swinging with her directorial debut, Band Aid, a meditative look at the drudgery of relationships, the loss of one’s passions and the valuable idea that failing can be perceived more productively as growth.

Lister-Jones, who also penned the screenplay, is Anna, a writer-turned-Uber driver struggling with a squandered book deal and a recent miscarriage, both of which have put an incredible strain on her marriage with Ben (consummate indie champ Adam Pally), a struggling artist in his own right. Both cling to their miseries as an excuse to not address underlying issues with failure and one another, but rather than call it quits, Ben and Anna stumble into a songwriting partnership wherein tunes are written in the wake of their worst recurring arguments.

It’s equal parts funny and charming, and with original songs written by Lister-Jones herself that fall somewhere between Guided by Voices and David Byrne, Anna and Ben slowly rebuild their connection alongside their sex-addict neighbor (played deftly and perfectly weird by the always

brilliant Fred Armisen); their goof-around garage band becomes more of a necessary outlet than time-killer; like a therapeutic compartmentalization of their own bullshit played out creatively in a safe space.

Lister-Jones is a revelation, at once funny and sweet yet human and accessible—a cool girl consumed by almost crippling levels of self-doubt,

making her all the more authentic as a character.

Pally charms as well as a self-proclaimed realist who, like Anna, can also access short-tempered cruelty in the heat of a fight—though, to both actors’ credit, we never doubt their love even as they take out their own frustrations on one another.

from couples to creatives grappling with their own shortcomings and doubts. Yes, it’s a romantic comedy, but by astutely avoiding the idea of the band as quick fix, a painful yet beautiful story emerges in one of the best indie films in years.

++ IMPORTANT CHAPTER IN FOOD HISTORY; MAKES YOU HUNGRY

-- CONFUSING TIMELINE

Those who haven’t ravenously pursued the history of food can be forgiven for never having heard of Jeremiah Tower but, fact is, he’s a titan in the culinary world known to everyone from Batali to Bourdain, Stewart and beyond. He is (or was) the blueprint for the modern celebrity chef and the single most important pioneer of California cuisine.

In The Last Magnificent, from director Lydia Tenaglia (better-known as a producer for Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations), we learn the hows and whys of Tower’s path to veritable superstardom (at least in the culinary world), observe his meteoric rise to fame and, sadly, his self-inflicted fall into isolation and relative obscurity.

says it himself in the doc’s opening minutes: He can’t really be around people.

As a child, Tower’s parents whisked him across the globe on luxury ships, exposing him to the first-class fineries of travel and food. By his late 20s, however, he left Harvard never having worked and with essentially no tangible skills. But through a serendipitous position in the early ’70s alongside restauranteur and founder of the legendary Berkeley eatery Chez Panisse, Alice Waters, he honed his skills and proved a stalwart and studied food obsessive.

But Tower was also a stubborn visionary, unwilling or unable to collaborate effectively. At the hands of this inability to sacrifice his own wants, he left Chez Panisse, helmed his own ill-fated San Francisco restaurant, Stars, retired from cooking for 15 years and finally took position at NYC’s famed Tavern on the Green. It did not go well.

The Last Magnificent follows the objective purity of all good documentaries, alternately painting the picture of a chef who was operating before his time and a socially inept perfectionist who may very well never know what it is to be satisfied.

There is no denying Tower’s place at the table, but there’s also no denying he is a difficult man with ideas and ideals that may have ultimately been his undoing. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, R, 103 min.

WONDER WOMAN

++ GAL GADOT ABLY BLENDS BEAUTY AND BRAWN -- RATHER FORMULAIC

The long-overdue Wonder Woman film is an origin story that doesn’t shrink from the beauty or

Jeremiah Tower: incredibly important chef or total fucking asshole?

brawn of a hero in whom the parallels of ancient mythology and modern superhero fiction become literal.

Diana (Gal Gadot), the precocious daughter of Queen Hippolyta (Connie Nielsen), is a princess of the superhuman Amazons. The allfemale tribe, originally created by Zeus to protect mortals, eventually withdrew to the mystical “Paradise Island” of Themyscira to escape man’s wickedness. But mankind interrupts paradise when American soldier and spy Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) crash-lands on Diana’s doorstep, during World War I, with a squadron of Germans in pursuit.

As the far-off factions negotiate an armistice, a rogue German general (Danny Huston) and his maimed, mad chemist (Elena Anaya) concoct a new nerve agent that could tip the balance of the war. Hearing of the cataclysm and motivated by the mythological bedtime stories of her childhood, Diana comes to believe that only she can save the world by leaving Themyscira and vanquishing Ares, the Greek god of war and an enemy of the Amazons.

Arriving in World War I-era London, Diana peruses a new wardrobe to cover her utilitarian leather skirt and blend into a corseted, maledominated society as her alter ego, Diana Prince.

“How do you fight in this attire?” the warrior unironically asks, donning an outfit that evokes the fashion of the women’s suffrage movement.

The scene references the comic-book origins of Wonder Woman, whose creator, psychologist William Moulton Marston, was partly inspired by

early-20th-century feminism.

Director Patty Jenkins (Monster) was originally tapped to direct Thor 2 before leaving the Marvel Studios project due to creative differences. For more than a decade, she lobbied to helm a Wonder Woman film, and then got the gig after Michelle MacLaren dropped out. The result is the most grounded of the first four films in the evolving DC Extended Universe. It doesn’t reinvent the superhero origin story; it’s rather formulaic in that regard.

Pine’s able mix of wit and earnestness serves him well as Diana’s sherpa and latent love interest, and Gadot strikes the right balance as an alluring, even playful idealist who relishes the battle but not the war. Wonder Woman isn’t a transcendent movie heroine à la Ellen Ripley from Alien or Imperator Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road. But she is seminal, if not singular, in modern superhero cinema. (Neil Morris) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 141 min.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES

++ GHOST PIRATES! -- GHOST PIRATES…

Johnny Depp and crew are back as Captain Jack Sparrow and a bunch of bafflingly yet inextricably linked seafaring types in the newest installment of Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer’s Pirates franchise.

Looks like Jack Sparrow ran afoul of a Spanish captain named Salazar (a wonderfully spooky

Computer Help that Doesn’t Suck!

Javier Bardem) some years ago and, as is the style of these films, that means supernatural curses for some reason and more acrobatic adventure for the likes of the formerly-also-cursed Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), Henry Turner (the son of Orlando Bloom’s Will Turner from previous films, as played by the incredibly conventionally handsome Brenton Thwaites from Gods of Egypt) and a brilliant if brash young scientist named Carina (The Maze Runner’s Kaya Scodelario).

Young Henry wants to save his dad from service on the ghost ship Flying Dutchman, but he’ll need the fabled trident of Poseidon to do so.

According to legend, anyone who’s got that thing is basically the king of the sea. The only catch is that to get that bad boy he’ll need a “map no man can read.” Good thing Carina is a woman (and also conveniently has the map), so they join Jack Sparrow to get that danged artifact while Salazar nips at their heels totally ready to kill everyone cause he straight crazy.

Whereas the series took a bizarre turn many films ago and chooses to favor ghosts and stuff over good old-fashioned pirating, Dead Men isn’t as bad as you’d think. This isn’t to say it’s great by any means—more like you’ll probably never find yourself bored. Depp is … fine as Sparrow, but we’ve of course grown accustomed to his Keith Richards-y bumbling and damn-near-unbelievable ability to piss off every fucking ghost and curse victim throughout the Seven Seas. Bardem is brilliant as always and actually provides a fun villain, it’s just that everything else is fairly predictable at this point. Paul McCartney’s cameo, however, is a pure delight, and we would have watched a whole movie just with him being a goofball. Still, pirates get stabbed, and what else are you doing?

++ STUNNING VISUALS -- IF I CREATED RIDLEY SCOTT’S MANKIND, I’D GIVE UP ON THEM, TOO

In the futuristic world of 2104, which director Ridley Scott renders in jaw-dropping fashion, mankind has colonized planets and built synthetic humanoids. But they’ve also apparently abandoned wearing space suits and testing atmospheres—as they did in the previous Alien installment, Prometheus, which is set just 10 years earlier—and decided to wing it on a new planet. It does not go well.

Alien: Covenant is not a horror flick. It’s sci-fi.

There’s some quality suspense, but not a ton.

More than anything, the movie feels like a chapter, the conscience of which is Katherine Waterston (Inherent Vice) as Daniels, who becomes the second-in-command aboard the colonization

Reports of Wonder Woman audiences bursting into tears for no particular reason are not exaggerated. Also, there’s so much Nazi-punching. freighter Covenant. Waterston delivers some of the most important lines and seems to be the only one with the little voice in her head that says, “Maybe we shouldn’t.” If everyone played it safe, this would admittedly be a boring movie about a long trip through space, but there’s no real drama to the decisions the crew must make.

Despite mankind’s advanced state of existence, the crew of 15 contains just three African Americans and one Hispanic. Sadly, the only notable role among them is Demián Bichir’s (The Hateful 8) Lope, a well-played security team leader. While Idris Elba was believable as a no-nonsense pilot in Prometheus, Danny McBride is less so as a ratty-straw-hat cowboy. He seems more at home steering a jet ski as Kenny Powers in HBO’s Eastbound and Down, and though McBride has shown range in non-comedic assignments, he seems miscast here.

Scott smartly homes in on Michael Fassbender who, despite being a humanoid, is the dark soul of the movie. Fassbender’s David has the same chip on his shoulder in Covenant as his Peter-O’Toole-obsessed self in Prometheus. His new iteration, Walter, is David’s less-inquisitive self. The interplay between them brings some of the movie’s most poignant moments.

Like Prometheus before it, Covenant scratches at a lot of larger issues but, ultimately, I want this film to do more. It doesn’t take much to get me to suspend disbelief in sci-fi—I want to be on that new planet or in that ship—but you’ve gotta try. Director Scott doesn’t seem to agree.

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2

9

++ SO FUN, SO FUNNY, SO COOL -- NOT AS IMPACTFUL AS THE FIRST FILM

In a sea of ultra-serious films based on comic books, melodrama fatigue becomes a serious concern. Thank goodness then for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, another excellent outing for the lesser-known Marvel heroes and one of the most incredibly fun franchises currently hitting theaters.

Once again, we join Peter Quill/Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax (Dave Bautista), Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and Groot (now in baby form but still voiced by Vin Diesel) as they unwittingly get swept up into the collective role of galactic saviors.

When Quill’s father Ego (an excellent Kurt Russell) finally tracks him down after 30-plus years of searching, the humorous hero learns of his origins and—get this—they are dubious.

Turns out his dad’s a god (“With a little ‘g,’” Ego says) with nefarious intentions, and the Guardians must step in to set him straight.

Of course, the two-pronged approach of slapstick antics and absolutely killer soundtrack are the real draw here, but Guardians also manages to drive home some fairly heavy material on the topics of family drama, friendship and, almost surprisingly, love— though never in a way as silly as the overarching plot would lead us to believe. There are, in fact, some downright moving scenes shared between Quill and his sorta-kinda adoptive father Yondu (an exceedingly fun Michael Rooker). And all the while, great tunes from the likes of Looking Glass, Cat Stevens and ELO blare through the speakers through firefights and space battles, gravity-defying Pac-Man references and, gleefully, the reveal of the fate of one Howard the Duck.

Writer and director James Gunn absolutely nails the tone, and even when things become borderline too-serious, he knows just how to pull it out and make us laugh. Throw in excitingyet-brief appearances from heavyweights like Michelle Yeoh and Sylvester Stallone, and we’ve got what may be the perfect summer movie; the opening dance sequence alone is worth the price of admission.

MIND BODY SPIRIT CHIROPRACTIC Rob Brezsny

Week of June 14th

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You have to admit that salt looks like sugar and sugar resembles salt. This isn’t usually a major problem, though. Mistakenly sprinkling sugar on your food when you thought you were adding salt won’t hurt you, nor will putting salt in your coffee when you assumed you were using sugar. But errors like these are inconvenient, and they can wreck a meal. You may want to apply this lesson as a metaphor in the coming days, Aries. Be alert for things that outwardly seem to be alike but actually have different tastes and effects.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You’ll never get access to the treasure that’s buried out under the cherry tree next to the ruined barn if you stay in your command center and keep staring at the map instead of venturing out to the barn. Likewise, a symbol of truth may be helpful in experiencing deeper meaning, but it’s not the same as communing with the raw truth, and may even become a distraction from it. Let’s consider one further variation on the theme: The pictures in your mind’s eye may or may not have any connection with the world outside your brain. It’s especially important that you monitor their accuracy in the coming days.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Here’s a possible plan for the next ten days: Program your smart phone to sound an alarm once every hour during the entire time you’re awake. Each time the bell or buzzer goes off, you will vividly remember your life’s main purpose. You will ask yourself whether or not the activity you’re engaged in at that specific moment is somehow serving your life’s main purpose. If it is, literally pat yourself on the back and say to yourself, “Good job!” If it’s not, say the following words: “I am resolved to get into closer alignment with my soul’s code — the blueprint of my destiny.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Actress Marisa Berenson offers a line of anti-aging products that contain an elixir made from the seeds of a desert fruit known as prickly pear. The manufacturing process isn’t easy. To produce a quart of the potion requires 2,000 pounds of seeds. I see you as having a metaphorically similar challenge in the coming weeks, Gemini. To create a small amount of the precious stuff you want, I’m guessing you’ll have to gather a ton of raw materials. And there may be a desert-like phenomena to deal with, as well.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) There are three kinds of habits: good, bad, and neutral. Neutral habits are neither good nor bad but use up psychic energy that might be better directed into cultivating good habits.

Here are some examples: a good habit is when you’re disciplined about eating healthy food; a bad habit is watching violent TV shows before going to bed, thereby disturbing your sleep; a neutral habit might be doing Sudoku puzzles. My challenge to you, Cancerian, is to dissolve one bad habit and one neutral habit by replacing them with two new good habits. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, cosmic forces will be on your side as you make this effort.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) “Dear Dr. Astrology: Good fortune has been visiting me a lot lately. Many cool opportunities have come my way. Life is consistently interesting. I’ve also made two unwise moves that fortunately didn’t bring bad results. Things often work out better for me than I imagined they would! I’m grateful every day, but I feel like I should somehow show even more appreciation. Any ideas? -Lucky Leo.” Dear Lucky: The smartest response to the abundance you have enjoyed is to boost your generosity. Give out blessings. Dispense praise. Help people access their potentials. Intensify your efforts to share your wealth.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Years ago, a fan of my work named Paul emailed to ask me if I wanted to get together with him and his friend when I visited New York.

“Maybe you know her?” he wrote. “She’s the artist Cindy Sherman.” Back then I had never heard of Cindy.

But since Paul was smart and funny, I agreed to meet.

The three of us convened in an elegant tea room for a boisterous conversation. A week later, when I was back home and mentioned the event to a colleague, her eyes got big and she shrieked, “You had tea with THE Cindy Sherman.” She then educated me on how successful and influential Cindy’s photography has been. I predict you will soon have a comparable experience, Virgo: inadvertent contact with an intriguing presence. Hopefully, because I’ve given you a heads up, you’ll recognize what’s happening as it occurs, and take full advantage.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to go gallivanting so heedlessly into the labyrinth. Or maybe it was. Who knows? It’s still too early to assess the value of your experiences in that maddening but fascinating tangle. You may not yet be fully able to distinguish the smoke and mirrors from the useful revelations. Which of the riddles you’ve gathered will ultimately bring frustration and which will lead you to wisdom? Here’s one thing I do know for sure: If you want to exit the labyrinth, an opportunity will soon appear.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Over the years I’ve read numerous news reports about people who have engaged in intimate relations with clunky inanimate objects. One had sex with a bicycle. Another seduced a sidewalk, and a third tried to make sweet love to a picnic table. I hope you won’t join their ranks in the coming weeks. Your longing is likely to be extra intense, innovative, and even exotic, but I trust you will confine its expression to unions with adult human beings who know what they’re getting into and who have consented to play. Here’s an old English word you might want to add to your vocabulary: “blissom.” It means “to bleat with sexual desire.”

THETA THERAPY

Energy, sound and touch take you on a magical journey of self discovery.

Release emotions and deep seeded beliefs that keep you from knowing your truth and experiencing peace, love and joy in your life. Private and group AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Inventor, architect, and author Buckminster Fuller lived to the age of 87. For 63 of sessions, contact Angela those years, he kept a detailed scrapbook diary that docu- Miele at 570.447.0295, amsoulactivation.com. mented every day of his life. It included his reflections,

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a cosmic license to enjoy almost too much sensual pleasure. In addition, you should feel free to do more of what you love to do than you normally allow yourself. Be unapologetic about surrounding yourself with flatterers and worshipers. Be sumptuously lazy. Ask others to pick up the slack for you. Got all that? It’s just the first part of your oracle.

Here’s the rest: You have a cosmic license to explore the kind of spiritual growth that’s possible when you feel happy and fulfilled. As you go through each day, expect life to bring you exactly what you need to uplift you.

Assume that the best service you can offer your fellow humans is to be relaxed and content.

REFLEXOLOGY

HEART HEALING

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Your life in the coming days should be low on lightweight diversions and high in top-quality content. Does that sound like fun? I hope so.

I’d love to see you enjoy the hell out of yourself as you cut the fluff and focus on the pith . . . as you efficiently get to the hype-free heart of every matter and refuse to tolerate waffling or stalling. So strip away the glossy excesses, my dear Capricorn. Skip a few steps if that doesn’t cause any envy. Expose the pretty lies, but then just work around them; don’t get bogged down in indulging in negative emotions about them.

correspondence, drawings, newspaper clippings, grocery bills, and much other evidence of his unique story. I would love to see you express yourself with that much disciplined ferocity during the next two weeks. According to my astrological analysis, you’re in a phase when you have maximum power to create your life with vigorous ingenuity and to show everyone exactly who you are.
