TOO SKINNY My main beef is with the narrowing of Guadalupe Street. The mid section, along with parking on both sides, make the street so narrow it became too dangerous to use on two wheels or on foot. I used to stop by businesses all the time and use Guadalupe to go downtown. Not since the narrowing. I do not trust our local or tourist drivers to look back and check when opening doors. Our locals cannot even be trusted with yielding to pedestrians and bicyclists when they got the green light. ... Take out those islands in the middle that serve to obstruct and limit traffic!

License to Speed Public complaints to the sheriff’s office indicate an epidemic of bad driving among Santa Fe County deputies BY AARON CANTÚ a a r o n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
I
n early 2018, a Rio Rancho man emailed the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office to complain about one of its deputies speeding on the road. “Every morning I drive down 528 Northbound, and most mornings there is one of your officers who must live in Rio Rancho and drive the same route,” the man wrote. The deputy’s vehicle drove faster than the posted speed limit every time the man spotted it. “At first I thought, well, maybe he/she is on his/her way to a call, but when it happens every single time I see him/her, WITHOUT FAIL, he/she cannot possibly be on their way to a call. Not going both Northbound and Southbound,” the man’s complaint reads. It’s just one of 45 citizen complaints filed with the department since January 2017 and released to SFR in response to a public records request. A total of 15—comprising the largest share of alleged infractions—mention deputies speeding, using their cell phones while driving, tailgating and generally driving in ways that would merit a traffic stop for a civilian. The other 30 complaints range from rudeness and incompetence resulting in financial loss to personal harassment. Speeding was by far the most common driving grievance, with 14 complainants accusing at least eight different deputies of driving above the posted rates of speed. It was almost always mentioned in conjunction with other unsafe driving habits, including
cell phone use, not using proper turn signals and tailgating. The latter three acts were each mentioned in four of the complaints obtained by SFR. In total, complaints about driving mention 10 different deputies, including Adrian Miranda, Maria Hernandez, Tracy Baca, Michael Matison, Nathaniel Garcia, Jarrod Mosher, Christopher Podolak, JD Lujan, Vernon Naranjo and Jeff Jacquez. Two deputies, Miranda and Hernandez, were the subjects of at least two complaints each. Sheriff’s spokesman Juan Rios says people should feel “confident they can call the sheriff or sheriff’s office to report what they see as an infraction.” “We do take [complaints] seriously; they’re reviewed on a case-by-case basis,” Rios says. Each one is “essentially assigned to commanders [who] are assigned to look into each infraction. If it’s determined an infraction is justified, we will basically deal with it, everything from a verbal warning up to disciplinary action.” While the sheriff’s office will publicly disclose investigations into deputy misconduct, Rios says the outcome of those investigations—including whether and how a deputy was disciplined—is a “personnel matter” and therefore protected from release under the New Mexico Inspection of Public Records Act. The act does not provide for secrecy based on a claim of “personnel matters,” and state Attorney General Hector Balderas is reviewing a request from city of Santa Fe officials asking whether the fact of police discipline should be disclosed. An advisory opinion from Balderas could impact secrecy practices at law enforcement agencies across the state, including
the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office. The city asked for the opinion more than a year ago. Adan Mendoza is the county’s presumptive next sheriff, because he faces no challengers for the position on the Nov. 6 election ballot. The county employs about 100 sworn deputies who are assigned to patrol nearly 2,000 square miles of area in Santa Fe County. Mendoza noted the huge swath of land deputies cover every day, but added there was little justification for breaking traffic laws—especially cell phone usage. “I sometimes see law enforcement—I’m making a general statement— agencies within the city, county, state, other cities, other states, sometimes they’re talking on their phones or they’re not following proper traffic laws,” Mendoza tells SFR by phone. “I think everybody, all law enforcement, can do a better job setting an example, especially when we’re out there enforcing laws against the general public when they do the same things.” One complainant contacted the sheriff’s office in August of 2017 to say they witnessed Deputy Maria Hernan-

dez “speeding and talking on her cell phone without a hands free devise [sic]” on Highway 84/285. It echoes another complaint submitted two months later that mentions a deputy “texting with his right hand” while accelerating. A month later, another person complained about Deputy Tracy Baca “not maintaining her lanes of travel” on Highway 84/285 while possibly talking on her cell phone, and in December, somebody messaged the sheriff’s office to say that Deputy Nathaniel Garcia had been “texting and driving and using his cell phone while on State Road 14 near Rancho Viejo Blvd.” A few complainants were bold enough to follow deputies after they had allegedly exhibited poor driving behaviors. On Sept. 21, the sheriff’s office launched an internal investigation into Deputy Jeff Jacquez for reportedly driving at double the speed limit on Highway 84/285. According to the complaint that prompted the investigation, the complainant “followed [Jacquez] speeding all the way to the county line in Española where [the complainant] saw the flashing sign before the Sonic flashing 65 mph in a 45 mph zone.” One man even convinced an unidentified deputy to pull over and explain why he was driving so fast. On April 10, William Fraizer emailed the sheriff’s office to describe what happened after he witnessed a deputy’s vehicle speeding on Highway 14 toward the village of Golden. “I asked him why he was driving so fast and he said that he was on a call,” Fraizer wrote. Fraizer claims he then followed the deputy for 30 minutes on Highway 344 without observing the deputy respond to a call. Fraizer tells SFR his past experience receiving a speeding ticket for driving far more slowly in the same area motivated him to act. “It’s not the first time I’ve [followed a deputy’s vehicle],” says Fraizer, a retired lawyer and former owner of Marigold Arts on Canyon Road. “I just have this real strong feeling that if you have a badge and a gun, you have an incredible amount of power, you ought to obey the law.” Fraizer says nobody ever followed up with him to say if the deputy had been disciplined. Even though the sheriff’s office won’t tell people whether their complaints made any difference, Mendoza still encourages people to call in if they see deputies driving recklessly.

Ready, Set, Compost Santa Fe County is making turning scraps into soil more accessible B Y L AY N E R A D L A U E R i n t e r n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
S
anta Fe County gets its hands dirty to make composting easier with a new pilot residential composting program. For the 35 households in the initial program, it means not only physical assistance getting started, but ongoing education and help so that it really takes off. Composting is an often-neglected component of sustainability and reducing our carbon footprint. According to stats cited by the county, one-fourth of a landfill’s mass is comprised of compostable waste—more than all plastics combined—and methane released from trash in landfills is the third largest contributor to atmospheric methane in the US. Moreover, garbage collection services produce a significant amount of emissions from garbage trucks. For people who are interested in composting and living a more eco-friendly life, the barrier for entry might seem too high. Doing it right is significantly more complex than piling up your waste in the sun: You have to build a whole ecosystem that breaks waste down into nutrient-rich soil. Applicants approved for the program receive a free compost system installed by Reunity Resources, a local nonprofit that’s already collecting food waste from city restaurants for large-scale compost. Residents who are part of the county pilot get a small fortress made of straw
bales, in the center of which they deposit food waste. Worms wiggle about in the mess, “organically recycling” and producing nutrient-rich soil with their digestive systems. After installation, the county makes routine checkups, and hopes participants will stick with it for at least a year. “We’ve developed this to help people get over the initial barrier and get started,” says Neal Denton, a county sustainability specialist partially responsible for the program. “We’re hoping that they see how easy and straightforward it is, and to tell their friends and help them start composting.” Denton says the county expects to provide the program for more households later; but for now, installation has only just begun, and it will take some time to roll it out. “This is a pilot program for us to work out any kinks,” says Denton, “so we’re prepared for any potential expansion.” Participant Virginia King tells SFR gardening has always been a part of her life and that her dad had a compost pile, but she hadn’t yet followed in his footsteps. “Absolutely it would help get me into it,” she says. “I hate the idea of throwing things away that don’t have to go into a landfill. … It’s wonderful that the county is making these programs available. Compost is a beautiful thing.” Another participant, Stefan Rauch, says likewise. “I’m hoping to learn from this experience. I’m figuring I’ll have a working knowledge and a working system after they show me how to use it.”

The BaranRees/Weller family is among those getting training from compost experts.
Rauch lives in a rural area, where private curbside trash pickup is costly, if available at all. Instead, he hauls trash himself to the transfer station. “I feel like I was kind of forced into it,” he says of starting to compost. “We had to change our lifestyle in regards to waste. It costs money to deliver waste to the transfer station.” Rebecca Baran-Rees and Dylan Weller are a couple living outside the Santa Fe city limits. They have two children and a house with a big backyard. They were approved for the program because they cook most meals at home, have lots of food waste on account of their kids and there’s a good bit of vegetation on their property. Prior to enrolling, they already had a compost pile—some food waste on a mound of manure—but didn’t have the know-how to make use of it. “We have a great garden that we’ve building on, so the soil is really every-

thing,” Baran-Rees tells SFR. Weller pipes in: “We want to get to the end result of composting and be able to use it in our garden.” Their existing compost pile is respectable, but feels amateur compared to the new system the county is helping them build. “We’re exceedingly grateful,” Baran-Rees says. “We’re excited to get to learn about it. We’re excited for the kids too, who also get to learn.” Sarah Schiros, project coordinator for Santa Fe County compost installations, works with Reunity Resources to educate people and build the simple systems. At a recent check-in, she showed the gawking kids a cup full of squirming worms and told the couple they need to keep the compost moist due to the dry climate. “It tolerates a lot of neglect,” she tells them. “Sometimes you need to adjust things, but not all is lost.”

Unpacking the race to be the next New Mexico governor B Y M AT T G R U B S m a t t g r u b s @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
N
ew Mexico might scrape the bottom of many, many lists, but voters here can hang their hats on one thing: They have a pragmatic streak. Maybe the best example in recent memory is the lengthy tenure of the state’s two former US senators, Democrat Jeff Bingaman and Republican Pete Domenici. The Democrat served five terms. The Republican, six. Both rose to seniority on the Senate Energy Committee, playing lifeguard to New Mexico’s national labs and paying close attention to the river of federal cash floating the boat of the state’s economy. But since then-Republican Gary Johnson (yes, that Gary Johnson) beat Democrat Bruce King in the race for governor a quarter century ago, New Mexico voters have bestowed two consecutive terms to politicians from opposite parties. First Johnson, then Democrat Bill Richardson, then Republican Susana Martinez each maximized their term-limited time in office. For better or for worse, voters seem betrothed to their pick for governor every eight years. That history and that pragmatism would seem to bode well for Michelle Lujan Grisham. In the last Albuquerque Journal poll— conducted by Brian Sanderoff, who rarely misses calling the victor— the Democratic Albuquerque congresswoman led Republican Steve Pearce, 50-43 percent. But no one who talked with SFR about the race for governor seemed to think Lujan Grisham has sealed the deal. Pearce has been campaigning hard. He told SFR earlier this year that he’d spent maybe four nights in his house since June of 2017. And that’s a guy who didn’t have a primary opponent. Plus, he has a boatload of cash from his congressional account (more on that saga on page 14). The run for power is on, dear voter, and if history’s any guide, your vote this November may just count double over the next eight years.

Michelle Lujan Grisham declared she was running for governor 36 days after getting re-elected to Congress in 2016. Her campaign borrowed a bit of strategy from Hillary Clinton, who 21 months earlier opened her presidential campaign in a YouTube video. Lujan Grisham, who has represented New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District since 2013, sat in a living room, blurry background, soft music playing. She addressed the camera directly. Her campaign called the video “New Beginning.” At the time, Democrats were reeling. Some were near panic. Donald Trump was halfway through his transition to power and everyone was wondering what his administration would look like—and what it would do. Seven months later, in his own launch video on Facebook, Steve Pearce began his campaign. The congressman from the 2nd Congressional District, Pearce also sat in a softly lit room for the video. He spoke in hushed tones about his upbringing as one of six children in a ramshackle home. There were pictures of the house, which seemed to exist in its post-Pearce-rearing days solely for the purpose of defining “ramshackle.” He spoke to an off-camera interviewer, explaining his vision for the state. His campaign called it “Pearce for New Mexico.” That same day, Pearce made the interview rounds at Albuquerque TV stations. The presence of Pearce, New Mexico’s most prominent Republican office holder and winner of seven congressional elections, warded off any Republican primary competitors. Mindful of New Mexico’s voting trends for governor, three other Democrats ran against Lujan Grisham. She beat them all back handily. Both candidates have walked the line between Congress and campaign in the months since, dealing with the same issues, casting votes on many of the same measures (see page 15). They might have even shared a flight or two on the way back home from Washington, DC. As the Trump era has played out, the national climate has tilted toward Lujan Grisham and other Democrats. In New Mexico, Trump’s approval rating has dropped to 38 percent, according to the Journal poll in early September. Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’ approval is even lower, at 35 percent. “It should be a good year for the Democratic nominee. I don’t think she’s put the

race away though,” Tim Krebs tells SFR in a phone call during his lunch break. The head of the University of New Mexico’s political science department, Krebs is the sort who happily sets aside a sandwich to talk campaigning. Because polling has stayed relatively close, he expects those numbers to tighten up before Election Day, especially as outside spending groups try to soften each of the candidates with spending on negative broadcast ads. RealClearPolitics, a website that tracks political polling, rates the race as leaning Democratic. It lists just three polls and gives Lujan Grisham a 7.4 percentage point lead as an “average” of all polling data. But those numbers show 12 percent of voters as undecided. No one is undecided when they cast a ballot. “The president’s popularity in particular is important in gubernatorial elections,” Krebs says. “People will have a sense of which party they want to support based on presidential approval. Folks in the middle are potentially persuaded by the popularity or unpopularity of the president, and act accordingly in these statewide races.” Krebs says many voters who belong to a party aren’t necessarily beholden to it at the ballot box. That might smell odd to the party-loyal nose, but there’s an air of pragmatism to it. “I think that from the very beginning, this has been a race that’s Michelle Lujan Grisham’s to lose,” says Jose Zebedo Garcia. The former secretary of higher education for Susana Martinez, Garcia is also a retired professor at New Mexico State University. He runs a politics blog that he updates semi-regularly with his thoughts. He doesn’t just share the political bug with Krebs; he’s also of the opinion that Lujan Grisham has yet to salt away a victory. Pearce makes much of his appeal to Democrats. As proof, he frequently cites the political makeup of his district which, according to the Office of the Secretary of State, stands at 40 percent Democrat and 36 percent Republican. The Cook Political Report, a well-respected website that measures political performance in elections, rates New Mexico’s 2nd Congressional District as leaning Republican—182nd out of the 235 seats held by the party in the House of Representatives. Cook, by the way, also rates New Mexico’s race for governor as leaning Democratic. (It scores the race to
replace Pearce as a toss-up.) “Pearce has made a concerted effort in the past few years to reach out to people in the southern part of [Doña Ana] County—and most people in the southern part are Democrats—and make himself available to them. That’s one of the things that I keep hearing,” Garcia tells SFR. “But that’s a far cry from saying that he is popular among the entire electorate.” “I don’t think his success in his House district is a good barometer,” says Krebs, noting that, despite a slim Democratic majority, President Trump easily won the 2nd Congressional District. The district has made Pearce feel at home with some very right-leaning views. According to the FiveThirtyEight website, Pearce has voted with Trump nearly 90 percent of the time. The congressman is a member of the Freedom Caucus, which contains just a few dozen of the most conservative House Republican members. Though he credits Pearce with good work on the image-making front, Krebs hasn’t seen much of a shift in policy since Pearce’s last statewide run in 2008, when Tom Udall beat him with ease for a seat in the US Senate. “He’s basically the same person,” Krebs says. “He’s trying to moderate his position on the education front, which is a huge deal in this state with a huge constituency. But he’s not a particularly good fit for the state” when it comes to political views. There are two televised debates left in the campaign. While a gaffe or a withering put-down can move the polling needle, Garcia sees that as unlikely from two professional politicians. During the first debate last month on Fox New Mexico, he says, “They both sounded like a congressperson who had been in Washington too long. They were talking much too fast, like they were trying to get 15 talking points into 10 seconds. It didn’t come across as particularly sincere.” Pearce and Lujan Grisham might quibble with the sincerity observation, but both would likely agree that they’ve been in Washington too long. Pearce served in the state Legislature for two terms in the late 1990s, but has either been in DC or running for a job there since 2003. Before serving in DC beginning in 2013, Lujan Grisham held a series of state agency jobs, including Director of Aging and LongTerm Services and Secretary of Health, as well as a seat on the Bernalillo County Commission.
Key Issues
michelle lujan grisham
Steve Pearce
DEM
REP
Would lobby for increased teacher and staff pay, shift money from administration and streamline data reporting. Favors universal pre-kindergarten and lowering qualifying school age from 5 to 3 years old. Would likely do away with Martinez’ teacher evaluation and school grading systems.
Says teachers are asked to do too much and would suspend and reassess the Martinez teacher evaluation system. Would try to decentralize decision-making for educational policy. Wants to restructure discretionary funding for school districts to make it more broadly available.
Signature economic ideas
Would eliminate the cap on New Mexico’s film and TV production tax credit. Wants the State Investment Council to invest more money in New Mexico businesses and would broaden the rules for investment. Seeks to create a small business/ entrepreneur advocate’s position in the governor’s office.
Pearce favors increasing the state’s high-tech footprint through programs to retain younger workers in growth fields. He would invest more public money in Spaceport America. He’s been consistently in favor of hiring private companies to thin trees in the national forests. He also supports apprenticeship programs for trades. He wants to build an oil refinery in New Mexico.
Permanent funds
Favors increasing the annual payments from the funds, specifically to invest in early childhood education programs like pre-kindergarten. “You can’t be serious about a quality education, about improving the economy and diminishing poverty, if you’re not investing in early childhood education.”
Would not support increasing distributions from the permanent fund(s). “I think that we should be fiscally responsible and people should understand that that fund is for when we are out of oil and gas completely. … Let’s fix our education system as it stands.”
Education
Energy
Wages
Public safety
An “all of the above” approach that accepts the role of oil and natural gas, but incentivizes renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. Favors requiring power companies to generate more renewable energy. Would try to force oil and gas producers to capture methane from rigs and wells instead of allowing leaks.
Pearce is an oil and gas guy, and there’s little indication he would shift away from it to a large degree. His website’s energy policy section is one paragraph long and says he supports all forms of energy generation. Believes “the human is the first and most important part of the environment.”
Calls for an immediate raise of the minimum wage to $10 statewide, then to $12 in four years, with future indexing of the minimum wage to inflation. “You have to protect [low-income] benefits and support those individuals by making sure they have a meaningful wage that can keep those benefits until they’re stable enough to move off of them.”
Does not support increasing the minimum wage. Would incentivize businesses to move into high-poverty areas “where the people have shown the capacity to be trained to become good employees.” He says, “If you want to help people, you need to grow the economy. … You can’t pay more just because you want to. Your bottom line has to support it.”
Wants to increase collaboration and intelligence sharing among law enforcement agencies. Favors a statewide ban on semi-automatic assault-style rifles and high-capacity magazines and banning gun ownership for people with domestic violence convictions.
Has said that he wants to hold more convicted criminals in prison. Has not offered many specifics, focusing instead on recidivism programs for housing and employment for recently released former inmates. Also favors shifting mental and behavioral health funding from prisons to treatment programs.

But What about Cannabis?
How’d they vote? Faced with the same decisions in Washington, here’s how the candidates have come down on the issues:
Both say they’ll keep medical program, but differ on recreational law BY AARON CANTÚ a a r o n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
Neither Michelle Lujan Grisham nor Steve Pearce has ever tried cannabis, both candidates revealed in a televised debate last month. Despite their inexperience, the person who becomes governor will take the reins of New Mexico’s medical cannabis program, which has grown to include over 60,000 people but is still restrained by barriers to production and patient access. Gov. Susana Martinez’ one foot in, one foot out approach has resulted in a program hamstrung by an arbitrary annual limit on the number of plants producers can grow, a lack of consistent guidance for testing cannabis purity, a CBD restriction that’s pushing some patients back onto opioids, frustration with the limited number of medical conditions that qualify for a card, and near-endless feuds with producers over taxes, proprietary turf and more. So when Pearce refused to speak with us about the medical cannabis program, which he says he supports, we sent some questions about it to his spokesman Kevin Sheridan. “Given his schedule, it’s going to be hard to get him on the phone for this,” Sheridan told SFR over the phone. “He’s generally for the medical marijuana program, [and] if it needs to be fixed in specific ways, he’d be open to it.” Sheridan didn’t respond to SFR’s list of questions. In the campaign’s first televised debate last month, Pearce confessed that he was “suspicious” of medical cannabis “for many years,” but came around to it after close friends testified to its usefulness. “The medical marijuana—fine. We will do it,” Peace declared. Recreational cannabis, on the other hand, is a non-starter. The Republican candidate sees it as a hindrance for a state where a large share of people are enrolled in public benefits programs. “People say Colorado is doing just fine,” Pearce said at a candidate forum earlier this year. “Colorado has much deeper pockets to rely on. For New Mexico, we’re at the bottom of everything and we’re going to make one more stumbling block in
front of people who are just trying to get themselves on their feet and get back to the workforce.” Lujan Grisham is inclined to sign a bill greenlighting recreational cannabis in New Mexico. She often points to her time as health department secretary under Gov. Bill Richardson, when she rolled out the state’s medical cannabis program after the Legislature enacted it in 2007, as evidence of her commitment to the issue. She says the key will be to ensure medicinal cannabis doesn’t get subsumed into a recreational market, which prioritizes strains ideal for getting high but not necessarily symptomatic relief. “Part of it is finding ways to incentivize the production of products that get minimized when you have access to recreational cannabis,” such as CBD, Lujan Grisham told SFR by phone. She cites Colorado, which “nearly destroyed its medical cannabis program and is now looking at regulations” to build it back up. Learning from the mistakes of other states that have legalized pot for all is something the Democratic candidate brings up a lot. If a recreational bill arrived at her desk—and pundits say that’s likey—Lujan Grisham has said many times, she’d only sign it if it protected the medical program, addressed workers’ compensation insurance so employers can’t be sued by impaired workers, and included adequate barriers to underage use, which would include tighter regulation on edibles. She still won’t commit to specific actions like abolishing the plant cap, saying she’d defer to “the people in the industry” for how best to handle this and other issues. Given the dire needs of the state—from underfunded infrastructure and education, to a potential payout of billions of dollars to Texas over water rights, to a behavioral health system decimated by the current administration—Lujan Grisham doesn’t have illusions that recreational cannabis would be a panacea. But she thinks it can’t hurt. Associated with cannabis is the coming hemp industry in New Mexico, which was recently legalized and is in the rulemaking process right now. Pearce didn’t answer SFR’s question about it. Lujan Grisham says she’s been a staunch supporter. “I was supporting hemp at the same time I was supporting medical cannabis,” Lujan Grisham says. “I voted for hemp production at the federal level.”

he state of New Mexico spent more than $32,000 to hold a series of meetings ostensibly to review trapping regulations and appease political stirrings that call for an end to the practice. Their sole output has been to agree to draft trapper education materials—and to anger animal advocates. When the meetings’ findings and final report were presented to the state game commission on Oct. 5, Paul Kienzle, game commission chair, offered trappers and ranchers reassurances. “To the folks that are in favor of trapping, do not perceive this effort as antitrapping. I’m getting that vibe, and that’s not accurate,” Kienzle said. “It is perhaps the commission and the department trying to help trappers. … I believe we can play some defense.” Yet, at least three recent bills have called for banning the practice. The meetings, which were held between November 2017 and March 2018, were requested by one of those bills’ sponsors, Sen. Pete Campos (D-Las Vegas). He asked the Department of Game and Fish to convene stakeholders and search for solutions that didn’t require legislation. With a 60-day legislative session on the horizon and a new governor soon at the helm, the commission knows the winds could be shifting for trapping, and Kienzle said he was trying to get out ahead of those changes.
Trapping groups insist they already follow enough rules and won’t entertain additions. Anti-trapping groups say they entered these meetings ready to compromise, and don’t even feel their questions were answered. “The purpose of the meetings, for me at least, felt like it kind of shape-shifted a little bit and turned into an environment where if anyone proposed an idea that didn’t have unanimous support in the room, it was immediately thrown out. So there was really no opportunity to explore or debate or learn more,” says Jessica Johnson with Animal Protection of New Mexico. Conversations continuously funneled toward the one issue to which there wasn’t an immediate objection: education. Johnson was allowed to read recommendations from anti-trapping groups at a meeting, she says, but no questions or discussions were permitted. That list included adding “bag limits” of five animals per trapper, revising current law that sets no limit on the number of animals a trapper can kill. They also suggested no snares or lethal traps be set on public land and widening buffers from public spaces. Current rules allow traps within one-quarter mile of picnic areas and occupied dwellings, unless on private land, and within 25 yards of a trail. The groups suggested stepping back to 2 miles from homes and 100 yards from trails. High-traffic portions of the Cibola and Santa Fe national forests, including the trails closest to Santa Fe, were proposed to be closed altogether to trapping. Trappers call increasing setbacks from trails “ridiculous,” arguing that an offleash dog is as likely to run to a trap 200 yards off the trail as one 25 yards off a trail. They also oppose adding signs near traps for fear of vandalism, closing additional

areas to trapping, or limiting the number of animals they can trap. The stakeholder meeting report notes trappers didn’t want to reopen some rules “for fear of being forced to make a lot more concessions.” They supported mandatory education about trapping—and expect that will include educating people about traps and how to monitor their dogs and protect themselves. During the 2017-18 trapping season, 12 dogs were caught in traps, as were at least three endangered Mexican wolves. “It’s not that there aren’t laws, it’s just the people are uneducated with traps, what they do and how they operate,” Joe Luna, president of the New Mexico Trap-
pers Association, told the commission. “Trappers associations, or hunters or anglers, they always give up things,” Luna told SFR later, pointing to a hunting season shortened by a few weeks. Trappers use best management practices to reduce injury to “non-target” animals accidentally caught, he says, and compares the wound they’d receive to the experience of swinging a hammer at a nail and hitting your thumb instead. If these meetings were intended to seek out administrative or regulatory compromises without resorting to legislation, says Chris Smith of WildEarth Guardians, “this report and the meetings were a fabulously expensive and immensely time-consuming disservice to that—because we never, until the final meeting, discussed any type of regulatory changes to trapping. We were basically told that was off the table.” What took months of meetings and tens of thousands of dollars could have been achieved in a single conference call in which trappers said they were unwilling to make any changes, he says. “Instead, we went through this bungled process.”

Your Epidermis Isn’t Showing Tattoo flash as fine art Tattooers are artists in their own right, though they’re often defined as folks who use stabbing machines to shove ink in people’s skin. But many have no difficulty making brilliant and beautiful works of art (see our BOSF 2018 cover designed by talented tattooer Marie Sena), and an upcoming show at the Zalma Lofton Gallery on Guadalupe Street aims to blur the lines between tattoo and fine art. “Tattoo artists don’t consider themselves fine artists,” says Alberto Zalma, owner of the gallery. “If you ever ask them if they want to be in an art show, they’ll say ‘I guess so,’ and they’ll show you these paintings—and you’ll be like, ‘Holy shit. This is stuff is amazing!’” In conjunction with Albuquerque-based shop True Grit Tattoo, Bones to Pick is an exhibition at Zalma’s gallery featuring tattoo artists from across New Mexico. The theme is, as the name implies, skeletal. “Tattoo art is definitely alive and well,” Zalma continues. “My gallery’s goal is to change how people see [that] world.” True Grit owner Johnny Mac Howell is one of the participating artists. In one of his works, a skeletal hand bathed in lavender and fuchsia blossoms holds a burning, ornate torch. The fire itself is vivid and
textured. There is a kind of magnificence and regality evident in the work. “It’s gonna be a really eclectic combination of people, a good mix of people from New Mexico,” he tells SFR. “I’m stoked that it’s a lot of local people.” Jacob Larrazolo, Dave Briggs and Steve Candlemaker are just a few of the other artists in the show. A piece by Briggs depicts a figure reaching towards a heart in the heavens. Flower petals rain from the sky and the skeleton’s ankle is shackled to an object off-canvas. A mask—or the head of some masked entity—looms in the background, its curves and expression accentuating the skeleton in the foreground. There is a distinct blending of cultural and artistic elements and borderline religous iconography, and it strikes one as a work of both freedom and oppression. In one of Larrazolo’s pieces, a vicious-looking snake wraps around a melting skull. The canvas is tinted a stark yellow-green with a dark, faded border—making the piece an apocalyptic vision of life and death. (Layne Radlauer) BONES TO PICK 5 pm Friday Oct. 12. Through Oct. 31.

Lecture: Engaging the Other through Art and the Feminine Friday, October 12th 7-9pm $10 (+$10 surcharge for 2 CEUs or 2 Cultural CEUs)
The feminine haunts modernity as “the Other” to its hyper-rational and patriarchal assumptions. For this reason, Dr. Rowland suggests that C. G. Jung’s overall project was the recovery of the feminine to shore up a fatally fragile masculine consciousness. On the one hand, Jung’s anima is a flawed creature caught up with his own shadow. On the other hand, the feminine is empowered by Jung in the trickster arts of his own writing. Jung’s Collected Works return the Other as feminine creativity that converts the cultural production of art into the individuation that the age so sorely requires. Visionary art in any genre is the culture’s necessary dream. This lecture explores Jung’s feminine as route and root of the Other, one that is endlessly re-created in the arts.

The C. G. Jung Institute of Santa Fe presents
COURTESY KAELA WALDSTEIN
Workshop: Feminine Encounters in the Arts: Writing the Feminine Mysteries, and Modern Painting as Coniunctio Saturday, October 13th 9:00am-4:30pm $80 6 CEUs or 6 Cultural CEUs
Teaching oneself to become a filmmaker is no easy task, but it’s just what recent San Franciscan transplant Kaela Waldstein did. Even better? Waldstein won a Rocky Mountain Regional Emmy last September for her documentary coverage of the 2017 International Folk Art Market, aptly titled 2017 International Folk Art Market. Since we love badass women artists, we sat down with Waldstein to say what’s up and hear about what’s in her future. (Alex De Vore)
The morning workshop will deepen understanding of the feminine in writing, in particular the novel genre as a whole. Moreover, we will explore the literary detective as modern mythological hero re-imagined through goddesses returning to modernity in art. There will also be a creative writing exercise in finding symbols in re-connecting with the body and nature. Active imagination finds the divine in psychic images that want to enter into being through creative practice. The afternoon workshop will seek an encounter with the feminine through the paintings of Georgia O’Keeffe. Jung often spoke about modern art as symbolic of a dismembering of cultural mores. However, by bringing into relationship Jung’s view of alchemy with O’Keeffe’s modernist paintings, we will consider how her work additionally reveals a feminine impulse towards union. There will also be a collage exercise in which to creatively engage with these ideas.
Why did you come to Santa Fe from San Francisco?
Friday lecture and Saturday workshop tickets at the door – for information call Rich Ryan, 505-930-5419
People ask me that all the time and I’m like, ‘Why not?’ It’s much more my pace here. San Francisco is really busy and crowded and expensive and nobody has time to hang out. I always felt agitated by city life. ... Coming here, people are much more available to hang out. There’s so much awesome culture here in New Mexico. Silicon Valley doesn’t excite me.

We put patients first and deliver excellent care in the heart of Santa Fe.
It it different or challenging being a self-taught filmmaker?
Open 7 days a week, 8am – 7pm
It’s a cool thing because it really merges all these talents. I have a background in visual arts, so I’m really aware of the composition of my shots, the color, the light; I’m a sociology major, so I have a human social consciousness in all of my films. And the less romantic part is being good with computers. ... A friend lent me his camera and told me the basic settings, and I knew how to make a film. Thankfully, it’s just playing around with editing software—anything I needed to know, I looked up online. What’s the next movie? If you could pick anything? I filmed the fashion show for Indian Market and I also finished a film for Art of the Machine. I’m doing a behind-the-scenes video for Cavu— they make documentaries to educate people about the environment and they’re doing a series about the oil and gas industry in New Mexico, so I’m making a behind-the-scenes video. I figured this is something I could do to raise funds [for future films]. The Indian Market fashion show one should be out before the end of the year. I want to do one on food trucks in Santa Fe. I’m really about elevating Santa Fe as a global brand; I’m interested in culture and people, and New Mexico has so much of that. A lot of the events that happen here, I don’t know they get the recognition they deserve.

How to Build a Band
MUSIC
Clementine Was Right strikes a bittersweet balance Clementine Was Right recently reached six full-time members.
BY LUKE HENLEY a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
I
t’s easy to go solo, especially in Santa Fe where rehearsal times seem to be half jokes and where it is still shocking for musicians to receive a concrete load-in time from a venue. The appeal of tossing an acoustic guitar in the back of the car and being ready to go is great and, at the end of the day, a good song is still a good song. While the work of assembling a group is not enviable—scheduling for more than a two-piece becomes exponentially harder the more members you add—it is well worth it. Collaboration and camaraderie bring a vitality to any singer-songwriter’s repertoire. Electrify it, and you have something that will keep people up on their feet at your shows instead of what can often be confused with a folky hangout cuddle puddle. Speaking of folk, local act Clementine Was Right is finding their balance, having recently expanded to six members, including Santa Fe heavies like Peter Duggan, who played in Storming the Beaches With Logos in Hand, and Lilia (who goes by first name only), alongside recent transplants like singers Mike Young and Cecelia Ann Burton. Young started the band for the first annual Mill House Honky Tonk in Nambé circa

2017, enlisting Burton, Duggan and Alex Simon (of Tone Ranger) on lap steel to help flesh out the tunes. The songs themselves might wink from across the room at folk and country, but to lazily throw out the word Americana would be a disservice. Young and Duggan’s guitars shimmer with thick

vintage vibrations and just enough grit and dissonance to keep the band well enough away from the three-hour patio set scene. Burton’s vocals are trained but not sterile, a voice that sounds very much her own and mixes well with Young’s often wilder vocal timbre. Burton comes from a musical background, her grandfather being what she describes as “locally famous” as a blues musician in St. Louis, Missouri. “My heart in music is the blues, soulful music,” she says, adding that she’ll share songwriting duties with Young. Anchoring it all down is Taylor Penner-Ash’s drumming, which echoes Velvet Underground’s Moe Tucker’s driving, haunted boogie beats, and agile bassist Aaron Bloom. Lilia, who played drums in an earlier incantation of the band, now accompanies with trumpet, accordion and keys. So there is a lot going on when the band hits the stage, but none of it feels extraneous or gets in the way of the lyric-driven songs. While some singer-songwriters can rely on dour, vague poetry with easy success, we hear a welcome sense of humor to songs such as “Nazarene Sheen,” which is equal parts earnest character study and wry wit about a school bus driver that no one can quite figure out.
Speaking to the band in person, that same feeling of levity and seriousness abides as its members take turns cracking jokes as much as they wax philosophical on their own views of what drives them to make the music. “There are some songs that remind me of Springsteen that are driven and hooky, but then there are others like ‘Girl on the Run’ that are so melancholy,” Lilia tells SFR. “When I started out playing drums, I would cry because they’re so moving.” “We sped the songs up so Lilia would stop crying,” Duggan is quick to quip. The banter and songwriting both illuminate a humanist core to the music—a marriage of sweet and sour. “That mood is so much like real life,” Young explains. “I don’t think I could feel good about myself if I was too straight.” Duggan seems to agree. “When there’s some humor mixed in, I think it actually highlights the seriousness of the serious lines and draws people into listening,” he says. “But it’s not ironic, it’s pretty irony-free stuff.” Now with a solid crew of musicians, Young, who used to travel the country reading his poetry, wants to do the same with music. “I do have this feeling inside of me of this wick burning down and I want to go all over the place and play these songs the same way I did with poems,” he says. He turns to the band. “I feel really good about y’all, and I want to do that with people who want to do that with me.” Everyone nods.

Director Yony Leyser on his latest documentary, Queercore: How to Punk a Revolution
ALICE WHEELER
Queer Punk Mythology Becomes History BY JC GONZO a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
W
ith no clear manifestos or rigid definitions, the subgenre known as homocore—later queercore—birthed a cultural revolution embodied by frustrated visions, vivid imagination, and wild, anarchic desire. Part longing need and part boredom spurred the early experiments of Toronto, Canada-based outcast artists Bruce LaBruce and GB Jones, who were simultaneously influenced by situationist philosophies and rejected by the increasingly conformist, bourgeois gay scene of the 1980s. Punk, by then, had seen its descent into hardcore machismo brawls and a homogenous sound with attitudes steering further and further away from its early, more freeform days. Though, in true punk fashion, Bruce and Jones chose to invent the scene they wanted and, in turn, the world in which they wanted to live. The radical, dissenting voice of such early experiments in art and cinema resonated far beyond the reaches of Toronto and spawned new zines, films and performers across urban centers of the United States. Likened more to a traveling circus than any genre or style, the fake-turnedreal movement was united by a questioning of the status quo. For a young Yony Leyser, director of the new film Queercore: How to Punk a Revolution, queer radicalism was the perfect path to envisioning a life beyond stale suburbia. “I saw white flight and homophobia, conservatism, and staged false realities
And it looks a little something like this.
on TV and felt totally unrepresented by that,” Leyser tells SFR. “My parents were immigrants from the Middle East, I was raised by a single mom, and I wasn’t a heterosexual—punk gave me the avenue to express myself.” Now an expatriate living in Berlin, Germany, Leyser started his own zine called the Yoniliyser as a teen. “I didn’t learn about the connection of queer and punk culture till later on,” he says. Zines, of course, proved crucial to the formation of subculture in a pre-internet America. “The way queercore, punk, riot grrrrl all spread as a farce because the leaders of the movements felt a need for them to exist was very inspiring and surprised me,” Leyser adds. The queer and punk connection doesn’t seem like a stretch today with acts like Peaches having breached the mainstream, but after the 1980s, a hardcore movement had taken hold. Homophobia had become rife in the punk scene, which was losing core elements of freedom and anti-authoritarianism.
“Homocore/queercore was a small but very important movement that started as a post-modernist artistic expression against assimilation and going with the status quo,” Leyser explains. “It was also saying that homophobia should be crushed. It was about rejecting norms of society and embracing one’s outsiderness, which is an ethos I still very much live by.” Queercore remains a key element of my own experience as a marginalized gay youth, despite having been born in the late ’80s. For me, the genre arrived in its later manifestations within pop culture during the early 1990s, with Pansy Division and riot grrrl crossover acts like Team Dresch—both featured in Leyser’s documentary. By then, the movement had become its own self-sufficient animal so far removed from Bruce LaBruce that LaBruce would pronounce it dead— though, to none of the new artists’ notice. These artists, indie superstars to a millennial generation, could possibly be the link between queercore’s early days to the
electro-clash subgenre phenomenon of the early 2000s, and, more recently, the impact of alt-pop artists like Le1f, Mykki Blanco and Big Freedia. When asked if his film is a call-to-arms of sorts for a new generation, Leyser says it is, but adds that it “is also for everyone to see how revolution is possible from even the most disenfranchised of people, so not only queer artists but everyone who has maybe felt different but was at a conflict as to what to do with those differences. America should be a place that celebrates differences.” Conversely, some of America’s most famous queers like Ellen DeGeneres, Laverne Cox, Troye Sivan and Frank Ocean are a far cry from queercore’s non-commercial ethos. Does that matter, though, as queerness moves toward broader, more positive visibility? What space is left to be made by and for the non-conformist? Queercore: How to Punk A Revolution closes with hopes, possibilities and questions for an ever-uncertain future from artists who have so courageously shaped today. “I hope it inspires young people. I like manifestations of the movement in politics like Pussy Riot,” Leyser muses. “I don’t believe that all art is political, but I will say that most good art is, and most good artists have faced discrimination or hardships that lead their worldview to be very ‘political.’ Art is one of the most political acts that one can do.” Leyser himself comes to the opening night screening to take part in a Q&A with audience members after the film.

SFRE PORTE R .CO M /A RTS /ACTI N G O UT
ACTING OUT On Chekhov, Karma and What Comes Next hen a town of about 80,000 people has upwards of 30 theater companies, you gotta ask: Can there possibly be that many people who want to see plays and readings? Are there really that many talented directors, producers and actors to put on that many plays? Is this at all feasible? The knee-jerk answer is “no.” But take a deep dive, and the answer may shift to a quizzical, surprising: “Yes?” Confirmed by a highly successful Santa Fe Theatre Walk on Sept. 22 that saw about 800 patrons, it seems like if you build it, they will come. People desirous of putting on shows than there are available venues. Accordingly, this year saw Zephyr Community Art Studio putting up its first theatrical production in May, the Institute of American Indian Arts is slated to begin putting on productions once again in its black box, and Warehouse 21 now has an energetic theater manager at the helm who’s committed to bringing its house back to life. And audiences have turned out for all of it. Recently, Santa Fe welcomed the Oasis Theatre Company, founded in Manhattan in 1988; as we’ve reported previously, founding members Brenda Lynn Bynum and James Jenner simply loaded the whole company into trailers and drove west. After putting up shows at the Adobe Rose in 2017 and at Teatro Paraguas this year, they’ve cemented their spot (in this writer’s mind, at least) as one of the finest classical theater companies we have, making great works both pristine and accessible. Better yet: They’ve now commandeered a room of their own in the former rehearsal space next to Paraguas. Having started their company in New York, there’s a misconception that it must
have been more glamorous there. Not necessarily. “It’s actually very similar,” Bynum says, covered in paint, interviewed in the space in August amidst renovations. Plus, there is the question of cost. Santa Fe can be an expensive town, but rents here are nothing like those in the metro area, so companies can come out way ahead in the glamor department.

Bynum is optimistic about the new space, which they’re renting from Paraguas for the next seven months or so, and were able to make happen mostly because they schlepped all their supplies across the country. They practically took the nails out of the wall when they left New York, so everything from costumes to their lighting grid have found new homes in Santa Fe. “And [when you don’t have a space], you pay a lot for just renting it out for a month. So that’s where the inspiration came from. We paid so much for two months,” she says of the previous seasons. “We figured we’d take that same money, put it into this space for eight months, and see what happens. And then, at every curtain call, we’ll say, ‘We want our own home. Can anybody help us out? Do you have a barn? Do you have a garage? Do you have a parking lot?’ and just put it out there. Like Hudson Valley Shakespeare in New York—it was somebody’s estate, and they said, ‘We’ve got this big place, it’s got this beautiful view over the river, why don’t you come do Shakespeare here?’” While asking for karmic favors, Oasis doesn’t hesitate to hand them out, too. After all, if they end up moving out of the Paraguas space, they will have created yet
THEATER
another quality venue in town that the other 29-plus companies can make use of. Further, Bynum doesn’t want to keep the house just for themselves. “The floor is awesome,” she says, springing her heels in the performance space. “It’s got a nice coosh to it. We were thinking of reaching out to some yoga instructors or some other dance-movement thing to maybe do classes during the day.” She also wants to branch into education. “We’re thinking of doing a theater camp next year, if we have the space,” she adds. “And the idea is to start from scratch; what is theater, how do you move—and then by the end, they’re doing their own little short play, they’re making the costumes, they’re making the sets.” This month’s production of Uncle Vanya (which, judging by Oasis’ previous Chekhov productions, could be one of the best shows in town this year) will be their last one in Paraguas. The new space—fittingly called the Oasis Theatre—hosts its first production in November with a double-header of The Shawl and The Sanctity of Marriage, two one-acts by David Mamet. (If you saw Oasis’ production of Mamet’s The Water Engine back in May, you’ll know that while the playwright is best known for vulgarity, it’s a disservice; there’s more to be mined there.) If you’re not yet acquainted with Oasis’ style, this Vanya is not to be missed, owing to Oasis’ dedication to making classical works impeccable for connoisseurs and simultaneously understandable for newbies. “In Vanya, a lot of the humor comes from the relationships,” Bynum says. “You’re going to recognize people, even though it’s set in the 1890s. You’re going to recognize your family in this.” But that’s not to say it’s dumbed down; au contraire. “Sometimes, you can lose sight—even though we, as scholars, understand this, is it going to communicate out to an audience?” she asks. “That’s the thing that we have to keep in mind; it’s a play, and you have to physicalize the inner life of the characters.” Oasis’ season, which also includes Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale and Molière’s The Miser, is going to be good, if heavy. “It’s a serious season. But there are going to be laughs,” Bynum promises. “You know me. I find those laughs wherever I can get them.”
UNCLE VANYA Brenda Lynn Bynum, founder, producer, artistic director and occasional actress with Oasis Theatre Company, painted their new theater’s benches a color fittingly called “Oasis.”

uman beings have been consuming chocolate for thousands of years, and the earliest known method of delivery—drinking it hot with added sugar and spices—still provides a primal sense of satisfaction. Local shop Kakawa Chocolate House has carved a niche for itself in providing an array of drinking chocolates designed to scratch that ancient itch—and then, three weeks ago, it opened a new location just off Rufina Street, adding 1,800 square feet of space to showcase its formidable lineup of cacao-based delights. With the lower Siler District arts community infusing the neighborhood with plenty of foot traffic, hopefully Kakawa continues to blossom. The new location is spacious and brightly lit, a far cry from the cozy adobe cottage which serves as the business’ downtown point of origin on Paseo de Peralta. There’s a modern, minimalist eating area replete with wooden tables and cheerfully colored chalkboards delineating the day’s freshly made lineup of drinks, baked goods and organic ice cream, and a rotating selection of daily drinks and elixirs based on historic European, Central and South American recipes. Kakawa also boasts a glass case full of jewel-like truffles with ingredients ranging from the conventional such as raspberry and lavender to outliers like piñon and goat cheese. From the beginning, Kakawa was always focused on high-quality, artisanal treats from pastry chef/original owner Mark Sciscenti, who sold the business to Tony and Bonnie Bennett in 2011. The Bennetts expanded the se-
lection beyond drinking chocolate to include truffles, cookies and caramels, not to mention pre-made elixir packages and merchandise bearing the unique, Olmec-inspired logo. With the new space, Kakawa has solidified its brand identity, offering the same selection of items as its downtown iteration. The elixirs come served in tiny Oaxacan blue and white ceramic cups, a neatly appropriate delivery system for recipes such as the Zapoteca, a 100 percent fruity and nutty blend of single origin chocolates with no sugar or flavorings added, and the chili, which features coconut sugar and the warm, sweet heat of local red chile (all elixirs are $3.75 for 3 ounces and $6.50 for 6 ounces). Cacao consumption in Oaxaca is tantamount to living a good life, as part of a daily diet and a symbol of important events. Cacao played a central part in the Spanish discovery and dissemination of chocolate’s importance back home in Europe, and Kakawa’s choice of ceramics is a subtle homage to the primacy of Mexican chocolate and culinary tradition, the wisdom of Indigenous chocolate consumption as important as its later wild and elaborate European incarnations. Like that of wine and coffee, the pleasure of chocolate is intimately connected to its containers; it is meant to be drunk out of clay and licked off fingers. I sampled the chili elixir and it was thick and rich, with a consistency almost like the crema atop well-made espresso, but with subtle nutty and fruity flavors inherent in the chocolate that have nothing to do with added spice. I followed it up with a sweetly smoky mezcal-infused dark chocolate truffle ($3), which had a satisfyingly thick texture and earthy finish. It

was a far cry from Hershey’s, with a hint of sweetness balanced by a deep depth of flavor and rich mouthfeel. Kakawa sources two premium, luxury-grade chocolate bases. Valrhona, a French company based in Tain-l’Hermitage, near the famous wine region Hermitage, provides the raw material for the 70 percent chocolate elixirs. Felchlin, meanwhile, a producer of premium Swiss chocolate, is more suited to the 100 percent chocolate recipes. These have a particularly satisfying and silky texture. Part of what makes Kakawa’s chocolates so special are historic references inherent in its offerings, the heavily floral and spiced sweetness of the American and the Jeffersonian representing the influence of European tastes on an Old-World foodstuff, while the darker, more bitter and earthy Mesoamerican elixirs paint a picture of an even older method of consumption. Kakawa’s new space is infused with the
smell of chocolate tempering in an upstairs loft, or baking in a downstairs kitchen that is easily twice the size of the downtown location’s. The elixirs are still made in the original location, but production of everything else is now localized at Rufina Circle. The Bennetts intend to expand their purview beyond Santa Fe, as well, with plans to open a third location in Salem, Massachusetts, in a brownstone owned by the Peabody Essex Museum, later this month. The new shop aims to bring the flavor of New Mexican red chile, mezcal and piñon delights to the East Coast. Not for nothing, the gospel of chocolate continues to be heard, and Kakawa continues to be one of its most ardent apostles.

There are parallels between actor Robert Redford and Forrest Tucker, the real-life career criminal who robbed banks until the ripe old age of 79, and who Redford portrays in his newest film. For one, they’re both old and respectable dudes who did what they loved throughout his career. Old Man & the Gun is Redford’s much-ballyhooed final film, and it’s a fitting send-off for the end of a Hollywood legend’s long career. The movie is fittingly about the end of Tucker’s career and his relationship with a woman named Jewel (Sissy Spacek). He’s a handsome, charming guy who cracks a delicious smile while revealing the big iron tucked in his overcoat. There’s also the cop John Hunt (Casey Affleck) tasked with catching Tucker and his cohorts, who are played by Danny Glover and Tom Waits. Affleck struggles with his respect for Tucker’s passion and suavity. Unsurprisingly, banks are robbed and consequences ensue, but since the principal characters are old, the fallout doesn’t seem too awful.
6 5 4 3 2 1 WORST MOVIE EVER
ACTING; A TEAR-JERKING SEND OFF TO REDFORD’S CAREER - PLOT COULD USE SOME DEVELOPMENT
The relationships between these characters feels natural. Redford and Spacek’s chemistry is spot-on, with romantic moments between them subtle and charming, while Affleck and Redford’s dynamic is compelling—almost like a friendship instead of a cat-and-mouse rivalry. There’s a distinct nostalgic tone that remarkably doesn’t venture too far into the cultural context of the time; the music is upbeat and smooth, drawing you into the 1980s and setting the scene, but never shoving the pop culture of the day down your throat. Yet the plot isn’t particularly cohesive, nor are there many moments of suspense. In one scene, Tucker’s in Dallas, then he’s in St. Louis and then he’s right back in Dallas again. Similarly, Hunt’s struggle with his respect for Tucker versus his professional obligation to catch a criminal
isn’t as developed as it should be. Furthermore, it’s made obvious that Tucker’s going to get caught at some point, and his attempts at avoiding capture seem pointless as a result—this defuses much of the potential tension. Towards the end, Redford sits on a horse wearing a thick poncho and a wide-brimmed hat. On the horizon, cop cars roll by as the night turns to dawn. Tucker is, in the end, still a cowboy, but it’s time for him to ride off into the sunrise. Perhaps that is melodramatic, but The Old Man & the Gun is swathed in sentiment, and is every bit about Redford as it is Tucker.

THE PREDATOR
It’s dumb, yeah, but the interplay between Eddie and Venom is both charmingly funny and kind of kickass—be it in moments wherein the pair sprints up buildings or climbs space-bound rockets or bites people’s heads off. Hardy is oddly fantastic as a scared man coming to terms with his newfound lot in life, and Ahmed’s understated villain does get pretty creepy, we only wish they’d developed him a little more. Fans of the comics will probably find more things to like than those walking in cold, but as far as comic book action movies go, Venom is certainly one of the more fun entries out there. Director Ruben Fleischer (Zombieland) surely realized he had a wonderful opportunity to embrace more comedic elements here and ran with it, and good for him. Now, assuming you don’t have some chip on your shoulder about refusing to like dumb/fun comic book movies, it should be a breeze to sit back and watch the heads pop. Go nuts. (Alex De Vore) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 112 min.
+ MORE FUN THAN YOU’D THINK - CITIZEN KANE THIS AIN’T, BUT IS THAT A BAD THING?
It’s a little weird to make a Spider-Man movie without Spider-Man, but Tom Hardy and company come pretty close to awesome with Venom. See, the rights to Marvel Comics properties are basically a mess. Some studios own certain characters, others own other characters, and what you get is movies that are forced to navigate some seriously tricky licensing. That said, Venom is certainly a raucous good time, even if it ultimately feels a tad anemic, at least right up until the mid-credits scene (no spoilers, but you’re gonna wanna see it). Hardy is Eddie Brock, a Vice-esque journalist who runs afoul of a bazillionaire and scruples-free scientist type named Carlton Drake (Nightcrawler‘s Riz Ahmed) the very same week he loses his job and girlfriend (a there but it doesn’t much matter Michelle Williams). Seems Drake has been human-testing some crazy alien shit, and when a scientist played by Jenny Slate (Parks and Recreation) develops a conscience, Eddie is thrust into a symbiotic relationship with a parasitic creature named Venom who can make him all strong and acrobatic and stuff.

Ethan Hawke’s Blaze outpaces other biopics with ease, thanks in part to newcomer Ben Dickey (right) who plays the under-appreciated country music champ Blaze Foley. the life of musician Blaze Foley, a contemporary and friend of Townes Van Zandt, a songwriter whose work was recorded by Willie and Merle, and a struggling sufferer of mental illness who was shot and killed in 1989. Setting aside Hawke’s script—which is mostly stellar despite a few cliche lines here and there—the bulk of Blaze is carried by newcomer Ben Dickey, an actor who so effortlessly conveys the dizzying highs and terrifying lows of Foley’s life that he all but disappears into the role. We feel like we really get him at his best and want to save him at his worst, and the beautiful songs of Foley and Van Zandt permeate most scenes in one of the most effective uses of music we’ve seen in a film in ages. Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development) stuns as Foley’s one-time wife Sybil Rosen, who penned the screenplay along with Hawke. This alone sets Blaze apart from other biopics—Rosen was there from the meager beginnings in a literal treehouse to Foley’s eventual descent too far into boozing which, of course, lends authenticity to the tale. And while the film celebrates the man and unequivocally proves his gift for songwriting, it never shies away from the uglier moments. Actor/musician Charlie Sexton (Boyhood) deserves a special nod, as well, for his portrayal of Townes Van Zandt (and for his work on the soundtrack), but not simply because he bears a striking resemblance to the Texan hero. Still, there are moments that lead us to believe the filmmakers (and, by extension, Rosen) feel less than enthralled with Van Zandt’s contributions to Foley’s life, but they’re never fully explored. We also don’t get an idea of how certain events came to pass and are instead thrust into the middle of scenes that end without any particular resolution. Perhaps it’s a case of having too much information in too short a time. But if the end goal was to foster a deeper appreciation for Blaze Foley and his impact on country music, Blaze ought to work wonders. (ADV) Violet Crown, R, 129 min.

other, however, it’s mildly terrifying to get to know teenagers who subject themselves to such levels of work and stress and who think of little else. Costantini and Foster introduce us to youths from small-town American schools alongside their contemporaries from Brazil and Germany, and while we get a basic idea of their projects, their personalities, their teachers and parents, as well as the broad appeal of the fair, we don’t get a clear idea of how it actually affects them save some late-film text scrolling about what they’re up to today. Take Robbie, a competitor fascinated by machine learning who taught a neural net to write rap songs based on the style of Kanye West. We know he struggles in school and nearly fails math in the time leading up to his ISEF appearance, but we never learn how he’s actually feeling when he gets rejected from colleges aside from a few flippant and age-appropriate remarks. It’s a similar story with young Ivo from Lorscht, Germany, who pioneers incredible aerodynamic tech but whom we never really get to know—they don’t dig too deep into his project, either. The same can be said for the other kids, even if they’re looking for fixes or improvements to issues like Zika, arsenic poisoning, the humble stethoscope and so on. But it is strangely fun to peek into a world about which most know very little, and we’ll definitely admit to reassessing how smart we thought we were. And anyway, it’s probably important for these youngsters to have such, um, Type A personalities … y’know, for the good of humanity and all. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, PG, 90 min.

+ FASCINATING AND HEARTBREAKING - MEN ARE THE FUCKING WORST
We can’t decide if everyone knows Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama or if not enough people do, although we hear tell that over 5 million fans on social media regularly check up on the contemporary art mastermind. She probably wouldn’t care, however, and in the new documentary Kusama: Infinity from filmmaker Heather Lenz, we learn that lesson repeatedly. Kusama, for those who don’t know, has a career-spanning fascination with dots, soft sculpture and conceptual weirdness that dates back to early letters penned to Georgia O’Keeffe, the eschewing of familial expectations and a daring move to New York City in the late 1950s—after which everyone from Oldenburg to Warhol shamelessly ripped her off. From the 1966 Venice Biennale (where she arrived, without invitation, to sell mirrored balls she labeled as “narcissism”) to arguably being the first artist to craft a mirrored room containing

No more museums, galleries, etc. So get it together. countless colored lights in a quest to represent the infinite, Kusama has been one step ahead of everyone practically always. And yet she struggled—as a woman, as a Japanese person living in America, as an attempter of suicide and as an underappreciated force of nature. Lenz shows this brilliantly, mashing up film footage and decades of photography with modern-day interviews with gallerists, curators, Kusama’s friends and contemporaries and the woman herself. She calls Japan home again these days, living in a hospital but marching the two blocks to her studio almost every day. The process is fascinating and the story itself enraging, but we also catch a glimpse of how Kusama influenced and continues to influence the world of art throughout the ages. The tale is hardly pretty and the trials and tribulations were many, but genius always seems to come with a hefty price. And while we won’t pretend to understand Kusama’s thought processes and motivations entirely, we do know we appreciate them and her efforts; us and about 5 million others. In other words, if you even think you like art, you must see this film. It’ll change how you think about everything. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, NR, 76 min.
everyone sets about fighting the Predator. But, ruh-roh—an even crazier Predator shows up, and starts Predator-ing even harder; bullets, alien weapons, explosions and gore abound. The Predator mainly suffers from a lack of exposition. Perhaps Black thinks we’ve been following the movies and comics since the 1980s or something, but those who go in cold will probably feel lost. Beyond that, there are scenes that leap jarringly to or from others that make little sense, and the comic relief feels more like the result of focus testing than it does an organic addition to the mayhem. Holbrook is fine as the easily forgettable sniper caught between his bad luck and family, but we’re pretty ashamed for Munn, who has proven quite capable in other films and TV shows but here feels like a pointless addition. Ditto for McKenna’s kid, a negligible character who may as well have been named Motivation in the script. There are also space dogs; literal space dogs. Ugh. Still, spines get ripped and faces get shot and the bigger, crazier Predator does make for some enjoyable fight scenes. Hold off until you can watch this at home and tear it apart with your friends. We promise you’ll like that better. (ADV) Regal, R, 107 min.

+ JUST REALLY DUMB BUT FUN - JARRING PACING; DID WE MENTION IT’S DUMB?
Director Shane Black jumps into the Predator franchise with yet another sequel or, like, entry in the universe. It’s a dumb sequel, too, but it’s dumb in all the ways you want an action movie to be, and given Black’s pedigree as director or writer for movies like Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout and far too many more to list, we were kind of betting on over-the-top action as opposed to high cinema. It is the present, and one of those terrible, horrible, no-good, sometimes-invisible Predator aliens crash-lands on Earth with its dreadlocks in tow, and Army sniper Quinn McKenna (Narcos’ Boyd Holbrook) finds its stuff and mails it home. Why? Because, umm, he knows he’ll be detained by the shadowy alien hunter arm of the government and he wants to be able to prove he’s not crazy. Following us? Word. So anyway, McKenna totally does get detained, whereupon he winds up joining forces with a bunch of other reportedly crazy soldiers played by Thomas Jane and KeeganMichael Key and a few others who’ve also been classified as crazy. And then in turn they join up with a scientist who mostly just shoots guns instead of doing science (Olivia Munn), and

Our primary ‘bottle volunteer’ took them on and raised them to maturity with the ‘supervision’ of her adult cats. TEMPERAMENT: The kittens are all very social and playful. If not adopted with a sibling, these kittens should be adopted into homes with another kitten or young cat to play with. AGE: born approx. 7/15/18.

AGE: born approximately in the summer of 2003.

Gizmo
Meet Gizmo! He is a 56 pound mixed breed that recently came to the shelter as a stray. Our vets have aged him at about a year and 8 months old so he is full grown. Gizmo is a little shy right now and meeting people would be great for him. As always, if you have another dog at home you’re more than welcome to bring them in for a Meet n’ Greet with this gentleman.

Trixie
Hiking, cuddling, and admiring nature are all things that Trixie enjoys to do. If you are looking for a companion to explore the trails with, look no further than Trixie! She is a 3 year old pup who came to us as a stray found here in the Santa Fe area. Currently she weighs about 50 pounds, which we think is a good weight for her. A volunteer adds: “Here is a sweetheart who will snuggle up, loving to be brushed, and have her ears and her velvety soft tummy rubbed. She walks and jogs very nicely on a loose leash. Several of us volunteers make sure to visit this precious girl before we finish our shift. Such a love!”

MIND BODY SPIRIT ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny
Week of October 10th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): In his book The Snow Leopard, Peter Matthiessen describes his quest to glimpse the elusive and rarely seen creature in the Himalayas. “Its uncompromising yellow eyes, wired into the depths of its unfathomable spirit,” he writes, give it a “terrible beauty” that is “the very stuff of human longing.” He loves the snow leopard so much, he says, that it is the animal he “would most like to be eaten by.” I bring this up, Aries, because now would be a good time, astrologically speaking, for you to identify what animal you would most like to be eaten by. In other words, what creature would you most like to learn from and be inspired by? What beautiful beast has the most to give you?

Here’s my opinion: be more focused on discovering possibilities than making final decisions. Feed your sense of wonder and awe rather than your drive to figure everything out. Give more power to what you can imagine than to what you already know. Being practical is fine as long as you’re idealistically practical.
