They closed down the government, refused to work with him, would not hold a hearing on his Supreme Court nominee. There was no effort in the least of cooperation from the Republican Party and Republicans refused to acknowledge Obama as their president. And his family was insulted to no end. I will not “embrace the coming changes and heal the abyss.” I will fight and scream my protests and refuse to acknowledge this horrid person as my president.

CYANIDE KOOL AID I was amused by [Bettyann Craddock’s] pompous, delusional rant against “morally bankrupt” Leftists. She drank the cyanidelaced Kool Aid with many in this country, somehow deciding that a racist, misogynist, anti-immigrant tax evader in bed with the NRA, KKK, Assange and Putin would be a better choice than that “nasty woman” with a private e-mail server. ... If you assume to be a part of “this nation of tolerant, open-hearted, generous and considerate family-oriented people,” then how do you, in good conscience, explain your choice to your children and grandchildren? ...

THE FLIPPIEST FLOPPER Nothing the president-elect has said during his campaign or after election day is truly the same answer. Trump has been a registered Democrat longer than he has a registered Republican, and has changed parties at least five times. He is never consistent and is constantly changing his views. The change in perception after Election Day leads many to believe the framework for his campaign isn’t what he wants to do but rather gather more votes.

Back on the Brink Nuclear watchdogs assembling in Santa Fe say it’s time to stop ignoring ongoing threat BY EL IZABE TH M I LLE R el i zab eth @ s fre p o r te r.co m
P
erhaps the greatest threat posed to our future generations is the one we seem to be letting drift quietly into obscurity: that 15,000 nuclear weapons exist now, any one of them capable of wiping out a city in seconds. Of course, Santa Fe, poised as it is between Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories and the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, rarely forgets that weapons abound. So, to this landscape where we’re still cleaning up from a form of warfare most have consigned to the history books, Creative Santa Fe, the Nuclear Threat Initiative and N Square have called thought leaders and diplomats to explore, study and discuss the topic. Just a few of the events in the Santa Fe Nuclear Weapons Summit will be open to the public, but among those is a dialogue on Sunday, Dec. 4, between former US Secretary of Defense William J Perry and journalist Eric Schlosser. Both have written on the flawed logic, policy and perception surrounding our nuclear arsenal, and share the sentiment that this threat is far from over. “Today, the danger of some sort of nuclear catastrophe is greater than it was during the Cold War and most people are blissfully unaware of this danger,” Perry, who served as defense secretary from 1994 to 1997, states in his memoir, My Journey at the Nuclear Brink. To Creative Santa Fe, inviting a cohort of about 50 people who will tour New Mexico’s facilities to discuss nuclear weapons in the context of where they were born was easy bait, and the first in a series they hope will entice a younger generation to Santa Fe and leverage the CEOs, diplomats and PhDs who have retired here. “We have a history of being at the forefront of innovation, of art, of culture, of science and technology—we’ve been doing it for hundreds of years. We’ve always attracted the innovators and disruptors,” says
Cyndi Conn, executive director of Creative Santa Fe. “Why not bring that legacy to the world as a place to solve problems?” Schlosser was reporting on the future of warfare in space when former missile launch officers began telling him stories of near-misses, accidents and mistakes with nuclear weapons. Six years of research later, he released the book Command and Control, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in history. A documentary of the same name is produced by Schlosser and directed by Robert Kenner, and will be screened as part of the summit. “One of the main themes of my book, and it applies beyond nuclear weapons, is that human beings are much better at creating complex technology systems than we are at controlling them or knowing what to do when they go wrong,” Schlosser tells SFR. He points to the WIPP, built to securely store transuranic waste for tens of thousands of years, and host of an explosion within its first 15 years in operation. “There’s a whole list of things that we can do to reduce the threat, but the first step is to even know that it exists, and to understand the nature of it. So I’ve tried to do that with my work,” Schlosser says. Nuclear war on US soil may be less likely now than it was decades ago, he says, but in its place we find an increased risk of a city somewhere else in the world vanishing in a mushroom cloud. “One of the dangers right now is that a lot of these things are aging—not just the weapons, but the weap-

ons systems themselves, and as they age, they become more problematic. So you either have to modernize them or get rid of them, but keeping increasingly obsolete technology on alert and ready to be used at a moment’s notice is probably the worst of those options,” he says. Activism played a role in de-escalating the conflicts in the early 1980s that kept nuclear warfare hovering on horizon; it could play that role again. With that in mind, and with a new set of fingers on the United States’ proverbial nuclear “red button” beginning next year, it’s time for a renewed public debate on nuclear weapons, why we have them, and how safely they’re being managed. But for Schlosser, the end result of those conversations is already clear: “There are just certain things that we shouldn’t do,” he says. “If it’s harmful for 30,000 years, maybe we shouldn’t make it.” COMMAND AND CONTROL SCREENING AND Q&A WITH ERIC SCHLOSSER 3:30 pm Saturday Dec. 3. $8-$10.

Cash for the Underdogs New Mexico Game Commission adopts plan that leaves unclear requirements for federal grants BY EL IZABE TH M I LLE R el i zab eth @ s fre p o r te r.co m
T
he federal government has put grant money on the table for the state’s taking, this time specifically to preserve habitats and study species often overshadowed—and therefore underfunded—by their huntable and fishable brethren. But the New Mexico Game Commission seems reluctant to accept the offered funds, up to $1 million a year. Instead, they took every opportunity to soften the language in the newly approved State Wildlife Action Plan. The edits loosened the plan’s bonds and put nebulous mandates on grant applications, without clear direction on how to fulfill them. Since New Mexico first approved a State Wildlife Action Plan in 2005, the state has received $13.8 million in 55 grants for surveys and research as well as restoration and management projects. Fish took the highest number of grants, though mammals, riparian habitat restoration and the purchase of lands and easements for conservation also secured funds. “What the State Wildlife Action Plan hopefully represents is a hearty acknowledgement of the important roles that non-game species, that we spend a lot less time thinking about and we see less often, play in the larger ecosystem,” says Michael Dax of Defenders of Wildlife, a repeat commenter on the issue. The plan expires after a decade. When an updated draft went before the commission in late 2015, Matt Wunder, division chief of the Department of Game and Fish’s Ecological and Environmental Planning Division, reminded commissioners, “The [grant program] provides the department with a substantial stream of money and in large measure the only source of funding that we have to work on … nongame species.” But faced with representatives from oil and gas and ranching who opposed the plan as overreaching, fretted about it listing 460 “species of greatest conservation need” and claimed it was more fiction than science, commissioners voted to ask the federal government for an extension so they could spend more time with stakeholders. “My concerns with the [State Wildlife Action Plan] is that there are very few facts in it,” said Karin Foster, attorney and executive director for the Independent Petroleum Association, at that November 2015 meeting. “It’s extremely anti-business, it’s extremely antioil and gas and it’s clearly the opinion of the drafters in many, many instances.” The revised plan approved by commissioners on Nov. 17 listed just 235 species. Among them were the charismatic—jaguars, black-footed ferrets, North American river otters, as well as more than 70 bird species—and the lesser-known: a bevy of shrimp, chubs, suckers, snails, lizards, snakes, and no fewer

than 46 species of mollusks. Commissioners took a few more public comments, closed that session, and then the commission’s chairman, Paul Kienzle, tacked on several amendments to soften language. The plan went from making declarative statements to covering “potential” threats, and made explicit that the plan “doesn’t have the force of law, rule or regulations.” Language calling for New Mexico to “strengthen or develop state laws, regulations and policies” to protect wetlands and aquatic ecosystems became “consider appropriate policies.” To every section where threats and conservation actions were listed, Kienzle added language that states, “Conservation action is not warranted merely because a potential threat is identified. Conservation action is not appropriate without site-specific data.” “We are still not totally clear how those amendments will serve practically,” says Dax, with Defenders. “We do want a plan passed, we’re happy that a plan passed, but we do want to make sure it’s a plan that will actually be useful for researchers to get grants and do projects. … We’re hopeful that the plan as passed will serve that function, but because of the last-minute nature of those amendments, that did give us cause for concern.” Susan MacMullin, chief of the branch of the US Fish and Wildlife Service that works on non-game wildlife and sport fish restoration for the Southwest, tells SFR the plans are “supposed to be the blueprint for conservation of a state’s species into the future. You do need a plan to figure out if you’re making progress.” Adding the caveat that she’s not the decisionmaker here, just a gatekeeper who will then pass the plan on to regional and federal offices to approve, she said, based on her first read, adding the amendments “doesn’t take away from the fact that it’s a planning document that kind of informs management of a species of greatest conservation need.” Game commissioners had repeatedly expressed concern that federal money would come with strings attached. “I really just don’t trust the federal government at this point,” Commissioner Elizabeth Ryan said at the meeting. There’s no evidence that, in the 10 years this program has been in place, any such requirements have been made. In his presentation that year, Wunder reiterated that the program keeps the state “in the driver’s seat.” Keeping New Mexico’s wildlife off the endangered list can help to prevent the need for federal intervention, avoiding what happened with endangered species like Mexican wolves and the New Mexico meadow jumping mouse. Since 2005, these grants have funded, just to name a few, river habitat restoration projects for the Chihuahua chub, a study on the effect the WhitewaterBaldy Complex Fire had on warm water fish in the Gila River basin, and population management for black bears—purchasing lockable city trash dumpsters to deter bears from scavenging for edible garbage. As Kienzle pointed out during the 2015 meeting, “None of us go to jail if we don’t approve this. We may not get any money from this grant program but this isn’t a federal requirement in the sense that you have to do it. … So be it. If we don’t get the money, we don’t get the money.” And perhaps, so be it. SFREPORTER.COM

Aamodt water rights settlement faces hurdle over board representation BY STEVE N H SI E H steven@ s fre p o r te r.co m
S
cores of water users gathered at the Cities of Gold Hotel for a yet another meeting over a centuries-old conflict. Lawyers, tribal governors and county representatives sat alongside officials from the State Engineer’s Office at the front of a banquet hall. Maps stuck along the back walls displayed blueprints for a proposed system that aims to deliver water from the Rio Grande to users to the area north of Santa Fe—the culmination of decades of heated litigation involving Santa Fe County, the US Department of Justice, the State of New Mexico and the four Pueblos that claim parts of the region as their homeland: Pojoaque, Nambe, Tesuque and San Ildefonso. Skeptics of the system gathered at the hotel in early November as a result of a settlement finalized by a judge this spring. The case quantifies the water rights of the Pueblos, who agreed to reduced claims, and the rights of the non-Indian landowners in the region. The Aamodt case, as it’s known, stems from a lawsuit filed in 1966 by the State Engineer’s Office to determine the water rights of basin landowners. With this lawsuit that’s lingered for decades, there seem to always be more questions than answers. Right now, the big issue is one of governance. Who will control the tap? County commissioners on Tuesday delayed a highly anticipated vote deciding whether to create or reject a regional water authority that would oversee the management and operation of the proposed system. The delay came in response to non-Pueblo residents who fear their voices won’t be heard on a board of directors that includes four Pueblo representatives, a county commissioner, and two other members to be appointed by the other directors. Commissioner Henry Roybal, who represents most of the basin in the county’s northernmost dis-
County commissioners consider new proposals on the decades-long Aamodt case.
trict, introduced two amendments Tuesday evening to change how the latter two board members would be chosen. State legislators who represent constituents in the basin, Rep. Carl Trujillo (D-Santa Fe) and Sen. Carlos Cisneros (D-Questa), support a proposal to grant themselves the power to choose the two additional board directors. Trujillo believes that will better ensure that non-Pueblo water users get representation on the governance over the utility, noting that 84 percent of basin residents are non-Pueblo. The other proposal would grant appointment authority to the Board of County Commissioners. Roybal tells SFR that either of his proposals could help attract much-needed customers to the water system. “I’ve met a lot of constituents that have reached out to me and called me telling me they feel they need more representation on the board,” he says. “They’re ramrodding this thing and not listening to the will of the people,” says Richard Reinders, owner of Estrella Del Norte Vineyard, which has land in Pojoaque and Nambe. But County Commissioner Miguel Chavez, who lives within Santa Fe city limits and leaves office after just one more planned commission meeting, says there’s no point waiting any longer to approve the agreement. He tells SFR, “I think that there’s been enough discussion about this, there’s been enough back and forth, and I think it’s time now to move on.

The Pueblos understand this. They’ve already made concessions.” To honor the senior water rights of the Pueblos, parties agreed to construct a new water utility that will run from the northernmost tip of Santa Fe County all the way to the edge of the city, delivering to the taps of homes and businesses down to the Bishop’s Lodge resort. The feds have promised to pick up about 66 percent of the $159.3 million construction costs, as estimated in 2006. Meanwhile, the state and county plan to cover $45.5 million and $7.4 million, respectively. As made evident by the flood of questions directed at experts during the Cities of Gold meeting, distrust runs high among basin residents. At the very least, confusion abounds. About 800 filed objections to the settlement, but had their claims thrown out in federal court in March. Of those, 330 appealed that ruling, and the 10th Circuit has yet to issue a decision on a question of whether the settlement is valid without approval from the Legislature. Should the county approve the joint powers agreement, there are still unresolved issues that could thwart the terms of the settlement from coming into fruition, says A Blair Dunn, the lawyer representing the 330 settlement objectors appealing the federal ruling throwing out their case. On top of Dunn’s appeal, he says the county also needs to put to rest a conflict over Pueblo road access that puts county funding for the project at risk.

KIDNEY TRANSPLANT BETWEEN FORMER JUDGE AND EX-SHERIFF COMPLETES A CYCLE OF GIVING THAT’S SPANNED DECADES BY J UL I E ANN GRIMM e d itor @sf repor ter.com
A
beloved former judge and a tarnished former sheriff both born and raised in Santa Fe met again in the most intimate of ways at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona, just before Thanksgiving. For Michael Vigil, it’s a chance to stay alive—a new kidney. For Greg Solano, it’s a sort of redemption—giving one up. Solano turned 52 on Nov. 15, just about a month after he finished serving five years on probation. Once a high-profile civil servant with political ambition for statewide office, he’s been working for the last several years as a handyman and at a storage facility. People in the grocery store still call him “Sheriff,” even though for years he’s been saying, “Just call me Greg.” He stepped down from the post in 2011 after admitting he stole county property and sold it on eBay. Vigil wore the dignified robe of a district court judge for 18 years. He attended his retirement party four years ago armed with two surprising facts: A recently purchased lottery ticket had earned him a $1 million payout, and diabetes had destroyed his kidney function and he needed an organ transplant. Now 64, he’s won another sort of lottery in finding a match in Solano. And Solano feels lucky himself. The surgery that moved one of Solano’s kidneys into Vigil’s body was among more than 300 kidney transplants at the Mayo Clinic in Arizona this year. And it went just the way doctors hoped it would. That morning, Solano did what he was known for doing during his eight-year tenure as county sheriff: He answered a phone call from a journalist. “I’m not really nervous,” he told SFR, pausing to field questions now and then from nurses.

“They’ve done so many tests and they’ve explained how it works. … I have never thought twice about it.” Both men and their families arrived at the hospital at 5 am on Tuesday, Nov. 22, and Solano went into the operating room first, where doctors performed a laparoscopic nephrectomy. Next, Vigil was wheeled into a different theater and his own team of surgeons installed the healthy organ. By dinnertime, Solano was asking his family for Ruffles potato chips and Vigil’s body was using the new kidney. The two men are both Santa Famous, but their paths first crossed long before either of their public service careers bloomed. The year was 1984. Vigil had been out of law school for about seven years, working in a small office in the San Francisco Street barrio with Joan Friedland and Morty Simon, handling criminal defense, civil rights and other cases. Also a part of the office was Carla Lopez, the girl who would capture Vigil’s heart and become his lifelong partner. Back then, the firm was steadily gaining a reputation for serving cash-poor clients. Solano, meanwhile, was 21 years old and grieving the sudden death of his single mother. His three siblings were without a legal guardian, and he needed help keeping his family intact. His uncle, Roman Solano, had a job cleaning the law office and suggested he ask Vigil for help. Help, he did. With Vigil’s assistance, and at no cost to the younger man, Solano gained custody of Melissa, 13, Monica, 15, and Gerald, 16. The families weren’t particularly close after that, but it’s Santa Fe—so they weren’t particularly far either. Vigil and Lopez had three daughters, both went on to serve on the school board, and he became district judge. Solano and his wife Antoinette also started their family. He left his job at a car lot to become a cop.

Greg Solano, left, and Michael Vigil share a few laughs in the Mayo Clinic three days after a successful kidney transplant surgery. Solano had already been released from the hospital, and Vigil got out a few hours after this photo.
Vigil and Solano kept in touch, crossing paths as a policeman and a lawyer, then as a sheriff and a judge. “We have always been friends,” Vigil said. “When I met Greg, [it] was so impressive that he was going to make an effort to keep his siblings together as a family unit. There are not too many 20-year-olds that can do that, take on those responsibilities. I know it wasn’t easy for him. … He persevered and his siblings did well. They all did well.” When Solano heard that Vigil needed a kidney and was looking for a live donor, he signed up right away. By 2013, the match was confirmed and surgeons planned the procedure. Setbacks with Vigil’s liver function, however, put the operation on hold. Then everyone held their breath until plans went back into motion this fall. “This gives me a chance to thank Michael Vigil for the selfless work that he did for me,” Solano said. “I’m really happy that I got his opportunity.” And since the news about the kidney transplant went public, he’s heard nothing but praise for the judge. “I can’t tell you how many people say, ‘He helped me out too.’ I’ve had a lot of people say it.”
This gives me a chance to thank Michael Vigil for the selfless work that he did for me ... I can’t tell you how many people say, ‘He helped me out too.’ -Greg Solano Carla Lopez has witnessed the whole story unfold. While the world around them buzzed with social media, she and Vigil had been keeping his health concerns on the down-low. Vigil had learned in the late ’80s that he had inherited his family history of diabetes. Despite his efforts to manage
the disease, his organs began to fail. In advance of his retirement party nearly two decades later, he had hundreds of business cards printed up: Seeking kidney donor (Blood type: O+). He told a crowd at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center that he had known for some time that he needed a transplant, but didn’t feel it was appropriate to start asking people for this big favor when he was still on the bench. This is the kind of thing Lopez has come to expect from Vigil. Even faced with dire personal risk, he’s thinking of the bigger picture. “Judge Mike” gained that nickname for the same reason lots of them come around: utility. His graduating class at St. Michael’s High alone had no fewer than three Mikes, and later, there were three Vigils serving the court at the same time. But it likely also stuck because Vigil maintained a rapport with everyone in his court as a man of the people—not looking down his nose, but looking right at you. He helped establish alternative programs for defendants who were homeless or who copped to drug and alcohol problems that made it hard to stay on
the right side of the law. He often had everyone in his courtroom in chuckles. “His approach is, ‘You don’t really worry until you have something to worry about,’” said Lopez. Time to worry, she said, would have been if there was no match and organ failure was setting in. But Vigil took his self-care seriously. He watched what he ate. He could still walk two miles at a time. On Sunday, Vigil and Lopez walked for about 20 minutes in the balmy Scottsdale late morning while winds whipped bitter cold in Santa Fe. Five days after the transplant, Vigil reported that he felt sore, but he was in good spirits. The Thanksgiving holiday was marked by the hospital’s “really awful turkey dinner,” he said. “It did not taste good, but I ate it. It was not a great Thanksgiving, food-wise, but I had a lot to be thankful for.” Doctors say the new kidney is “working beautifully.” Vigil and Lopez have rented a house near the clinic for the next six weeks so Mayo’s doctors can monitor his progress and establish the right drug combination to keep his body from rejecting the organ.

COURTESTY MAYO CLINIC
More than 40 people initially volunteered to be tested as a living donor for Vigil, who said he made the decision early on to work his way down the list chronologically. But most people dropped off with family health history or not enough matching markers. Solano moved on to the next step of spending a week at the clinic to confirm his eligibility, and surgeons scheduled the procedure. That’s when Vigil’s liver started acting weird and knocked him off the eligible recipient list. This April, he began dialysis. “I did not think I was going to be eligible. It did not look good,” he said. “Dialysis is the end stage for kidney disease. ... I didn’t think I was preparing for death, but I thought, ‘If something doesn’t break here, this could be the beginning of a decline.’” Then his liver snapped out of it (doctors are still not sure why), and with Solano still willing, they went for it.

for Santa Fe County sheriff in 1998, but winning the job in the 2002 election with 71 percent of the vote. He won another election in 2006 and spent several years campaigning for a lieutenant governor bid that never really got off the ground. His undersheriff prepared to run for the job he couldn’t seek again due to term limits. By January of 2010, he blogged about having given up the campaign. At the same time, he was struggling mightily with his household finances. According to a State Police search warrant, Solano had, for nearly a year already, been slipping new and surplus materials out of the county offices and into delivery boxes, selling items like handcuffs and bullet proof vests for personal profit. In November of that year, when State Police approached him with questions about his online business venture, he knew that the slippery slope he had led himself down would The word “redemption” has been bottom out. uttered more than once as Santa Fe “This was wrong, illegal, unethical starts to recount this new piece of lo- and dishonest,” Solano said in the last cal folklore.

He took a few years off from hard time paying my mortgage and law enforcement, then jumped in at the bills that come with it. It has been the political level, losing his first race very hard to live the last few years trying to be what is expected as an elected official and to be battling my financial problems. As an elected official, I was looked upon by the public, my family and supporters as a man of answers. Unfortunately, I am just a normal man trying to keep my family afloat during these tough financial times. This is not an excuse. What I did was wrong and cannot be justified.” Undersheriff Robert Garcia choked up as he was sworn in as sheriff that day, and eventually Solano served six weeks behind bars in the very jail that he had been responsible for as the county sheriff. He has been working to pay off the $25,000 worth of restitution that was also part of his sentence. “It was not a good situation. I’m not proud of it,” he said from the hospital bed. “I’ve done what I was supposed to do and that’s what the courts are for and that is The Mayo Clinic in Arizona is one of the nation’s what the criminal justice sysleading transplant facilities. tem is for.

citizens and I have done everything I can to do that.” At the insistence of his wife, and perhaps with their children (and grandchildren now numbering six) in mind, Solano fought the urge to skip town and has stuck around as part of the community, he wrote in a 2014 blog post—his first, and last, since he stopped writing publicly in 2010 amid the investigation. It wasn’t the family’s first brush with money problems. An SFR investigation based on public documents showed several previous debts spanning decades had gone to court and collections. Today, their for-
mer house in Fairway Village has gone to the foreclosure auction block, and the couple lives on the site of the storage facility they maintain. It might seem convenient that Solano’s return to the public eye comes in such a generous capacity—quite literally giving of himself to save a life. But Solano says his criminal conviction and the kidney donation are unrelated. “He’s a good man,” he said of Vigil a day after he’d been released from the hospital. “I did it for that reason and that reason only. Not to, like, fix my appearance with the community or
ORGAN DONORS GET GIVING Prior to his kidney transplant two days before Thanksgiving, Michael Vigil was among about 120,000 Americans on a waiting list to receive an organ. With just 30,000 transplants conducted in an average year, the gap between supply and demand is severe. So the odds aren’t good. Vigil had some experience beating the odds, though. Four years earlier, his Powerball ticket matched five of six numbers. Just days before his retirement as a state district court judge, he learned he’d be $1 million richer. Yet even a millionaire can’t buy a kidney (at least not legally).
anything like that.” Yet, this could be the time when Santa Fe forgives him. Vigil said he talked to Solano just once briefly during the dark days following his resignation. “The case was pending and it was not in my court, but what I did was I just offered him my support. He needed to do what was right and we just had a brief discussion about it. I kept tabs on what was going on and I hoped for the best,” he said. “It was difficult, but you know, I never lost confidence in what a good person Greg was. Because I knew the part of him that raised his
So he had to depend on either waiting for the stars to align with a deceased donor with matching blood type or try to find a living donor instead. That’s where he really cashed in, with longtime friend Greg Solano offering to donate his matching organ. Vigil has used some of the lottery winnings to pay for Solano’s family expenses related to the procedure, but by law, he can’t offer monetary compensation in exchange for the organ. The extra money has come in handy for him, though. He says that, even with health insurance, the cost of the transplant and all the travel associated with it has been huge. The choice to use the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona, rather than a New Mexico hospital was an easy one. The facility is one of the leading transplant providers in the nation. Dr. Raymond Heilman, who heads the nephrology division, said that with advances in surgical techniques that have made the procedures safer and more successful, getting the message to potential donors is the biggest hurdle to helping more patients.
siblings and did a great job with them. He made a mistake and he paid dearly for that mistake, but my opinion of him did not change as far as the character that he has and who he is.” The best outcome of their mutual assistance coming full circle, he said, is that perhaps it offers Solano selfconfidence. “Hopefully what’s most important is that this helps him realize that he’s a good person. And that any disappointment that he may have caused is in the past and that he can continue to be the Greg that I know, [who] is a very caring person. I think mostly it is going to help him with his own feelings about himself.” Lopez says from her perspective, the story has the right ending. “I feel like the only way it could have been more perfect is if it had been a family member. This is not onesided. It’s not about one of them giving more than the other one. Greg wanted to step up and there is just a balance to it that I love,” she said as she waited at Mayo during the surgery. “Greg had a really good career,” she continued, “and at the end, he did some stuff that wasn’t good. This is a reminder that we are all human and we make mistakes and we can still all do good. We just don’t get written off.” Vigil’s approach to the law was always along that same tack, she said. “That was Mike’s whole thing. You want people to find redemption and to find their way. For our community, that is good. When you mess up, it doesn’t mean that you are a bad person. You gotta own up and move on.”
“We need to look for ways to increase organ supply,” he said. “And living donation helps tremendously.” As does having conversations with your loved ones about your wishes at death, he said; “It shouldn’t be a taboo topic.” Theoretical calculations estimate that more than 30,000 deceased donors don’t have organs harvested each year that could save the lives of others. Getting educated about live donation typically only happens when a family member or close friend is in need, but strangers make live donations too. Solano says he hopes that going public with the story of their successful transplant motivates other people to consider being an organ donor. “The list for people needing kidney transplants is long,” he said. “So if anyone ever thought about saving a life or making a big difference in someone else’s life, this would be a great way to do it.”

CUTTING IT We don’t know about you, but we really dig linocut prints. They have a ton of character and require immense patience and talent on the part of the artist. Jack McCarthy’s works are no exception. “With relief printing, everything has to be done in reverse,” McCarthy tells SFR. “If you have words, you have to do them backwards for them to be printed correctly. It’s a real challenge.” McCarthy’s past work has featured themed series depicting subjects like Santa Fe architecture or stylized figures, but he says the prints in his upcoming show draw from Northern Alaskan Native American mythology. “I love their artwork and their stories,” he says. “It just inspired me.” (Maria Egolf-Romero)

Haley Bonar writes the songs figure out how to make it less drippy,” she says. “I have a lot of different kinds of music.” Dream itself displays Bonar’s self-proclaimed emphasis on meaningful lyricism, a job she’s been at for long enough to know what’s what, though she admittedly is more of a play-by-ear musician. “I’m a piano-lesson dropout,” she says with just a hint of pride. This usually means a more emotional experience, which is always a good thing, and makes for a more relatable performer. “I want to try to tell people’s stories back to them,” Bonar tells SFR. “I’m not just singing about my own life, my own drama; that, to me, is so boring. … The challenge is condensing something that could be a book into three minutes of music, and the more you can write a feeling or experience that’s not easily worded, the more people can relate to you.” Well said.

BOOKS/LECTURES PAST FORWARD Santa Fe-based archaeologist Steve Post isn’t out in the trenches as much as he once was, but he’s still got a hell of an exciting lecture coming up on an interesting find from the early-to-mid 2000s. It seems that Post discovered the remains of a circular structure behind the Palace of the Governors that he believes may have served as a shelter for Native scouts and/or interpreters during the 18th century. “If I’m right, this would be the first of its kind in the region,” Post says. “It’s the only archaeological evidence of something like this going on in the American Southwest.” (ADV)

Minnesota-based songsmith Haley Bonar takes another stab at pretty pop-rock numbers with her newest effort, Impossible Dream, a short and sweet 30-ish-minute opus of lyrically dense and sometimes heavy numbers examining the usual suspects—love, loss, sense of self—perfect for fans of anything from Tori Amos-y piano balladry to straight-up dancey rock ’n’ roll. Bonar is prolific, to say the least, with nearly 15 releases under her belt (they’re not all full-lengths). To hear her say it, this is the tightest her band has ever been and some of the best work she’s accomplished to date. “We’re a pretty well-oiled machine,” Bonar says. “We’ve been touring this record since June and the band is really tight, the energy level is really high.” Good news indeed from someone whose writing sessions tend to be introspective her-and-a-piano affairs. Still, there’s always room for growth, and Bonar says that her songs tend to evolve as she writes them. “The natural thing for me to do is to write the sad shit, exorcise that out and

Holiday Coverage
Bad Religion: “Joy to the World” The most garrulous of punk bands ditches the thesaurus and front man Greg Graffin’s propensity for seriousness in favor of Christmas-y delights through their pop-punk filter. Bands usually only stick around for eons when they’re this good, and there’s a bonus in the form of being able to keep one’s punk rock street cred … if such a thing exists.
Christmas jams for people sick of Christmas jams BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
I
“
s it time for Christmas movies yet?” a friend recently asked me via text. “My complicated love for Christmas takes over just after Thanksgiving. … Secretly, I’m furious for loving it.” And this got me thinking. Now that I’ve passed the point in my life where it’s cool to hate holidays, I’m actually kind of looking forward to some of the jams. There’s no use in pretending anymore, but that’s still no excuse for dusting off the same tired old chestnuts and miring oneself in the same-old Xmas music nonsense. Track down these super-cool holiday covers (and not-covers) instead. It is absolutely not too early. Weezer: “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” Rivers Cuomo and company actually released an entire album of Christmas covers aptly titled Christmas with Weezer in 2008. Most folks know all the songs, too, but with that trademark nerd-core Weezer style, they breathe new life into songs that we’re all going to hate in about three weeks. This particular ditty wins out for its short and sweet length, but also because Cuomo really sounds like he means it. That’s cool because he always seemed like a creeper, but maybe having kids and stuff was good for him. MU330: “Angels We Have Heard on High” Put your (wrong) feelings about third-wave ska aside for a second and pump the dulcet awesomeness of this Midwest gem-of-a-band’s rendition of the classic. MU330 also put out an album of wintry hits we know and loveish, and the poppy nature of their versions mixed with the scientific fact that horns basically always make songs sound better can only mean one thing—this shit sounds tight as hell.
FEAR: “Fuck Christmas” FEAR never really minced words when it came to hating on shit, and if ever there were an anti-anthem to the drag of the season, this is it. Now, we grant you that this most crusty of arguably well-known punk bands has erred so beyond PC basically always. But sometimes it feels great to give in to the darkness that slowly closes around you as if it’s zeroing in to a single pin of light. “Don’t despair just because it’s Christmas,” front man Lee Ving croons before screaming, “Fuck Christmas!” again and again, and we’re all like, “Oh man, this dude hates Christmas.” Bing Crosby & David Bowie: “Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy” We had to make it up to Bing for implying his jams are tired, and anyway, if ever there were inter-generational proof that Christmas music can work for everyone, it’s in this coming together of musical titans from 1977’s Bing Crosby’s Christmas Special. Not bad, you guys, and RIP to both of y’all.
Run-DMC: “Christmas in Hollis” Classic from the funky horn line and early-days-ofhip-hop bass to the iconic video and silly lyrics, RunDMC proves that whimsy has its place in the world of hip-hop. The Waitresses: “Christmas Wrapping” Out of the artsy post-punk world of the 1980s that also brought us incredible bands like The B-52s (if you don’t own Cosmic Thing what are you even doing?) and Talking Heads comes this wordy little pop number that does a damn fine job encapsulating the low-key feelings some of us get this time of year while remaining hopeful that the goings-on might just be OK. The Waitresses hailed from Akron, Ohio, which is also famous for a little band called Devo and probably nothing else worth mentioning. Jasper: “Dumped For Christmas” My buddy Jasper got dumped at Christmastime some years ago, so he penned this magnum opus that included such thoughtful lyrical highlights as “Socks, sweater, dumped on my ass/Merry fucking Christmas.” Nailed it, bro. Anyway, you’ll never find this song, but shut up—this isn’t about you.
Metallica: “Carol of the Bells” If there’s one holiday jam a-beggin’ to be given the metal treatment, it’s this bad boy right here. It’s a tad over-produced, as is Metallica’s wont, but compared to the douchey metalcore version from August Burns Red, the world’s biggest “metal” band wins out.

Change of Address 5. Gallery makes a big move to the Rufina corridor BY J O R DA N E D DY @jordaneddyart
I
t started with a cease-and-desist letter. Max Baseman had been running an art gallery out of his kitchen in a casita on Galisteo Street. It was Unit 5, and the black number by the door was the gallery’s de facto sign. News of the little space swirled around Santa Fe’s art scene, aided by high-profile supporters such as New Mexico Museum of Art’s Merry Scully and TAI Modern’s Jaquelin Loyd. Then, about six months ago, Baseman’s landlord intervened. “The motto at the casita was, ‘We can do anything we want,’” Baseman says. “Then I got an email that said we couldn’t do anything we wanted. So the new motto is, ‘We’re all in it together!’” He rented a warehouse space on Fox Road, a short walk from Meow Wolf. With the help of his friends, and the support of his new landlord, he spent four months converting it into a white box art space. The new 5. Gallery opened in August, and Baseman has mounted an exhibition there every month since. On a stormy Monday morning, the gallerist took some time to reflect on his curatorial journey so far—and the shifting fate of his new neighborhood. “I grew up halfway in the art world,” says Baseman. His father is Taos artist Marc Baseman, who contributed works from his print collection to 5.’s November show. Mandorlo e Mandorla featured works on paper from legendary names like Louise Bourgeois, Marcel Duchamp and Gerhard Richter. Baseman wandered the show with his fluffy white cat, Nephele, pointing out artworks that usually reside in his childhood home in Taos. “I’m named after Max Beckmann, who did the piece over there,” he says, gesturing to a 1922 drypoint by the German expressionist. “All of my dad’s fancy art books have crayon scratches on them from when I was a toddler.” Baseman always admired the work of Taos modernists such as Agnes Martin, but never received a formal art education. After high school, he hastily left his hometown for Albuquerque to study philosophy and religious studies at the University of New Mexico. He graduated in 2014, and crashed on a friend’s couch in Santa Fe. “Santa Fe was just a place between Albuquerque and Taos. I didn’t know it that well,” he says. In his first few months here, he started hanging

out downtown at The Matador and connected with a burgeoning scene of young artists. Founding an art salon in his home seemed like a natural next step. “I went to school for philosophy, and I consider [curating] the same work,” says Baseman. He recruited his new friends to contribute artwork, but didn’t tap the collections of his father and other art collectors. “I mean, it was my kitchen,” says Baseman. “I had to hang things based on how thick the wall was in places.” Then came that fateful email from the landlord. Armed with the little blue tile that read “5,” Baseman sailed into the deeper waters of the art world. He worked 14-hour shifts at Coyote Cantina this summer to raise an operating budget, and now he’s running his business full-time. For the new space’s inaugural show, Arbeit: Frank and his Dream, he loaded paper napkins into his Royal typewriter and tapped out invitations. “Labor-intensive but cost-effective,” he says. The group exhibition featured nods to Baseman’s Taos roots, with work by Wes Mills and Chris Aloia filling the gallery’s front room. Mills, who is a family friend, once ran an art space in an abandoned Taos barbershop, and exhibited work by Aloia. “To show someone that he was showing in a similar attitude was really cool,” says Baseman. “I didn’t go into it with that in mind, but the show told a narrative, I think.”
Since then, Baseman has been working his way through his new network, seeking artwork for upcoming shows. He’s planning about two months in advance, which requires constant hustling. “I looked at over 2,500 images in one day last week,” he says. “Even doing one studio visit is amazing and beautiful, but emotionally and physically exhausting.” Loyd and other Santa Fe art insiders have been a great help. “People say galleries are all cutthroat, but everyone’s been super helpful,” Baseman tells SFR. For 5.’s December show, small, Baseman engaged art critic Ann Landi to curate a group of diminutive artworks. It’s Landi’s reversal of an art world tendency toward flashy, large-scale statements, and brings together emerging and established artists. Nearly all of them live in New Mexico, and many are participants of Landi’s online platform for professional artists, Vasari21. Baseman has been so busy with the gallery since opening that he’s only had time to visit Meow Wolf once, but he’s very aware of the cultural shift in the neighborhood. “It seems like there’s a lot going on here,” he says, mentioning Adobe Rose Theatre, Duel Brewing and the rumored opening of a new bar. “I don’t know if it’s going to be as fast or intense as everyone is saying. They’re like, ‘It’s going to be the new Plaza!’” Baseman’s presence is already drawing attention to his block: Some of his friends have been eyeing nearby warehouse spaces for their studios.

THE CALENDAR
My boyfriend of almost two years is wonderful, and we have had very few issues. But there is one thing that has almost been a deal breaker. He fiddles with his penis almost constantly—in front of me and in front of our roommates. I’ve confronted him about it a number of times. He said he should be able to fiddle with his dick in every room of the house if he wants to and he should feel comfortable doing so. I told him that he is being “comfortable” at the expense of the comfort of those around him. We’ve had a number of confrontations about this, and he does it a lot less, but he still does it. If he doesn’t stop when I tell him to, I just leave the room. My question to you: Is this behavior unacceptable or am I being unreasonable? -Frustrated With The Fiddling Until a few weeks ago, I would have said that neo-Nazis sieg-heiling around Washington, DC, was unacceptable and any elected official or pundit who didn’t immediately condemn neo-Nazis would be finished politically and professionally. But it turns out that neo-Nazism is just another example of IOIYAR—“it’s okay if you’re a Republican”—and relativism reigns. In other words: “Unacceptable” is a relative concept, FWTF, not an objective one. That said, FWTF, I don’t think you’re being unreasonable: Fiddling with your dick in every room of the house is inconsiderate and childish. It sounds like you’re doing a good job of socializing your boyfriend—better late than never—and I would encourage you to keep it up. I’m a straight man in a mostly healthy marriage. Our sex life is average, which I understand is better than some people can hope for, and we communicate well. For example, I felt comfortable admitting to my wife a few weeks ago that I would like more blowjobs. She in turn felt comfortable admitting to me that she would prefer if I showered more often. So we made a deal: I would shower every day and she would blow me twice a month. But the first month came and went with no blowjobs in sight. I’ve showered every single day. Should I bring this up to her? -Bathe Longer Or Withhold Sex Your wife doesn’t wanna suck your cock, BLOWS, squeaky clean or stinky cheese. I would recommend outsourcing non-birthday blowjobs—if your wife is okay with that, BLOWS, which she won’t be. I’m a mid-30s bi woman in an incredible poly marriage with a bi guy. A few months ago, I learned that one of my closest friends (also poly) has a crush on me. I also have always had a crush on him. My crush-friend needed to ask his other partners how they felt about him being involved with me. Three months have gone by, and he’s not yet told me how his other partners feel. One of those partners is under a lot of stress—not the best time to bring up potential new partners to her—but my friend has dated other people in the past three months. I think if he really wanted to do something with me, he would have asked by now. I know you can’t ask someone to give you closure. I’ve also got a shit ton of pride that prevents me from asking him directly how he feels. Should I just move on? -Confused And Pathetic
except for one caveat: She has never in her life had an orgasm. For most of the time she has been sexually active, she has felt ambivalent about getting off. It has only been in the past month that she has started feeling a “sexual awakening,” as she calls it. We have been making progress, but she has been having issues with getting caught up in her head when I am pleasuring her. This has been causing dysphoric feelings for her. We have had a few discussions about what we can do about the situation, but we are feeling lost. We know there isn’t going to be a quick fix, but what do we do about this? -Confused And Nervous Truly Can’t Overcome Much Exasperation Pot. I’ve been in a long-term relationship with the girl I’m going to marry. While I’ve had a few relationships in the past, she has had only one other relationship before me, who also happened to be her only other sexual companion. My girlfriend is very vanilla in the bedroom, which is fine for me, but the issue is that currently the only way for her to have an orgasm is to grind (dry hump) on my boxer shorts until she climaxes. This obviously causes her a little bit of embarrassment, along with some heavy rug burn on both of our ends. My question for you: Is there any toy or something that may help with this? -Girlfriend Dryly Humping Pot and sex toys—they might not help, but they couldn’t hurt. I’m a woman with a small build who has never had children. During sex, my current partner frequently says, “Squeeze your pussy,” as in he expects me to do Kegel exercises during sex (and hold it), which I will not do because it’s not pleasurable for me to tense up like that during sex. He doesn’t have the biggest or the smallest dick I have ever had, and I have never had this comment before. I have actually been told many times how “good and tight” I feel. We both enjoy anal, so we tried that. Same request: “Squeeze.” I have no abnormalities. I’m not sure if there is a work-around for this, other than doing Kegels every minute of my life. Help! -Sex Partner’s Annoying Requests You have two options: You can tell your current sex partner you aren’t going to “squeeze” his dick with your pussy or your ass, as the sensation isn’t pleasurable for you, or can you lie to him. Tell him you’re squeezing your pussy/ ass—you’re squeezing so hard—without actually squeezing your pussy/ass. Odds are good he’ll notice a difference even if you’re not doing anything differently, SPAR, so great is the power of suggestion. I had to write after reading your recent Savage Love Letter of the Day from a woman who spotted a friend’s husband on Tinder and didn’t know whether she should say something to her friend. My (single and tindering) friend has been mistaken for his identical (married and non-tindering) twin brother more than once on the app. They live in Seattle and Los Angeles, and so most people in their lives don’t realize they have a twin. My friend has freaked out his sister-in-law’s friends by popping up on their Tinder feed. It came out after the sister-in-law posted a photo of the twins together on social media and multiple people expressed extreme relief that her husband was not a cheater but an identical twin! -Deluded Acquaintances Needed Answers Thanks for sharing, DANA!
Yup. I am a queer trans woman in my mid-20s, and I am in a monogamous relationship with a queer cis woman. We have been dating for about three months now. We have had an absolutely amazing sex life since day one,

DECEMBER 17 -18
With a number of books in his Chicano Codex Coloring Book series (chicanocoloringbooks.com) under his belt—and more on the way—Israel Francisco Haros Lopez has been quietly yet effectively reconnecting Chicano people with their ancestry and heritage since the early 2000s. A recent winner of the Kindle Project’s Makers Muse Award, Lopez works also as a teen liaison for the Santa Fe Public Schools’ Adelante program, which helps the homeless succesfuly achieve an education. Yup. He’s cool as hell. (Alex De Vore) Why do you think adult coloring books have become so popular? Well, actually, these aren’t coloring books, I just labeled the first two that way to help with marketing. They’re actually part of an ancestral codex that will hopefully help people re-engage with their heritage. When I started doing these years ago and giving them to parents for their kids, they never made it to the kids, which was weird at first but it helped me realize their therapeutic and healing value. I was doing this way before this newer movement was happening, but I realize how beautiful it is for people to think, ‘Hey, I can do this however I want, I can be that kid again.’ How many books are there total? There are nine so far, each one dedicated to one of my nieces or nephews. Each one is like having this deeper conversation about our spirituality and our language and our ancestry. There will be 20 eventually, each running 52 to 100 pages. Would you call yourself an artist or an activist or both? I think it just kind of depends on what role I’m playing for what day. It’s ultimately about servicing people, all people, and it’s about waking up the consciousness. In some way, shape or form, this is what these books are trying to do.

ANGER IS AN ENERGY IL LUSTRATI O N S AN D STO RY BY A MY DAV I S
I
recently got so friggin’ angry. Wicked enraged. And no, not because of what you may be thinking—it had nothing to do with the election. I cooled down thanks to an Epsom salt soak and a good strong quartz-crystal-clear look at the situation, and I realized that I was not completely innocent. Hubris will always be my albatross. I don’t burn bridges, folks, I nuke ‘em with a Walter White streak of blind pride so immense that people are confounded about how it comes in such a small, adorable package. So after a sweeping eagle-eye view of everything that had gone down, I realized I had to let it go and be cool, gentle, considerate—mellow. What does it mean to respect each other and really get where the other person is coming from? To truly understand that in the heady swirl of “truth” there is also gross hyperbole? The blame game is so very easy, seeing yourself for who you truly are and how you really affect people is the twist. So in these extreme and very interesting times, I say let’s be cool. Let’s transmute anger with some funky fresh fashion fun, because life is just too darn grim when we are made of concrete pride. On the style front there is so much wacky-cool it can indeed blast a soothing breeze of acumen throughout our rustled-up minds. Sometimes naughty-albeit-goofy stuff is the best medicine, and I say look no further than good old Australian fashion brand DI$COUNT UNIVER$E (discountuniverse. com)! Yeah, they’re trendy, but so what? They’re also a fun-rumble of attitude, color, blood and pizazz. The FASHION SUCKS sweatshirt alone is pure satirical yum.
The brand combines the sequins and eyeball themes seen eons ago from Belgian designer Walter Van Beirendonck with a dash of ’90s Moschino, a touch of Keith Haring and a fattening creamy dollop of Jeremy Scott on top. Their unoriginal—yet graphically brilliant—evil eye even hearkens back to NYC streetwear brand Mishka and California-via-Shreveport art rock band The Residents. The eyeball ... Is it blind or all-seeing? You decide. Too wild for ya? Well check this out: On Saturday, Dec. 3 at 2 pm, form & concept (435 S. Guadalupe St., 982-8111) presents a talk with San Francisco-based jewelry designer Jenn Carroll Wilson about the ethics of metalsmithing. Did you know a single gold ring creates over 20 tons of mine waste? GRR! Makes you mad, but this incredibly conscious and talented jewelry designer-cum-artist should diffuse your fuse. “My work is not political, so anger does not show itself in my made pieces, but it does in the creation of making them,” Wilson told me “FASHION SUCKS” tracksuit sweater by DI$COUNT UNIVER$E.
via email. “I find anger, despair, depression ... all of the dark arts ... find the light in creativity.” Wilson’s creations are modern, elegant and simple; a world away from Di$count Universe, but both designers deal with their own issues with the ethics of creation: DU slams the fashion world for its insane waste and vapid ugliness by creating shocking and quite wonderfully ugly work, whereas Wilson offers her powerful view through quiet design. There is no doubt that both of these very different talents have subverted and redirected anger into creation. Elsewhere, Spirit Clothing (109 W San Francisco St., 982-2677) owners Merrie Martin and Brenda Sales are quite possibly the best buyers of unique and wonderful items. Bags, shoes, scarves, hats, jewelry, barrettes and even dreamy local 100 percent organic skincare by LR Modern Alchemy … this stuff is ahmaze-ang! My twinkling steely magpie eye spied milky-clear rubbery bags glimmering with soft spots of color. Here we have an Italian designer who is all about waste—who knew?! “Industry creates an enormous amount of waste [and] this waste is our basic element,” Luisa Cevese Riedizioni says in her mission statement. “Different kinds of textile waste, plastic and production facilities led me to an array of different results. My objective is to find the simplest solution that involves, in the widest possible sense, the minimum of waste.” Waste didn’t anger Riedizioni, it inspired her. She even created an innovative and original rubber-esque material called 11, taking actual remnant shards of rainbow-dipped silk and pressing them into the dewy Vaseline-clear walls of the bags. So brillz, so bright! And, in keeping with my “winter is coming let’s stay shiny” theme, these bags may be a bit pricey ($200-$600) but absolutely not a waste. So can we aspire to the above concept of being cool? If I can, you can, and face it, it will always get harder the more we fight to stay RIGHT. There is no right. There is only benevolent grace, and if we have that, baby, we’ll always be in style.

Mom’s Yankee Pot Roast An American classic BY GWYNETH DOLAND t h e f o r k @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
M
y mom dropped by the other day just as I was heaving a massive chuck roast out of the freezer. It was the last package of meat from the last side of beef I bought, and I hadn’t yet decided what to do with it. “You could make that Yankee pot roast I used to do when you were a kid,” she said. And I was all HA HA HA HA HA! Because everybody knows my mother has never in her life made something so boring as a pot roast. If it doesn’t have at least three ingredients you can’t pronounce, then she’s not interested. But she went on: “Take a jar of horseradish and slather it all over the roast, then throw half a bag of
cranberries in the pot,” she said. Hmmm … I may have spoken too soon. That’s JUST weird enough to be true. “When it’s done it’s fantastic and nobody can guess what you actually did to it.” Although I generally don’t trust her crazy ideas, it turns out there are many variations on horseradish and cranberry pot roast out there. It seems to be a thing. I happened to have a jar of horseradish and a bag of dried cranberries on hand, so I gave it a shot. And you know what? It was freaking fantastic and nobody could guess what I actually did to it. So here’s a little weekend project for you. It feeds an army, which makes it good for a holiday potluck. The leftovers just get better and better in the fridge and it freezes well. Plus, you can make up any story you like about what you did to it.

PRIME, MAIN FLOOR OFFICE SPACE We are looking for a quality tenant.
Located in the heart of downtown Santa Fe. Bright, natural light with high ceilings. Built-ins. Shared bathroom & kitchenette. New carpet. Parking. Call 505.988.5541 to schedule a showing.
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Season the roast with salt and pepper, then dust it with flour and brown it on all sides. Add the oil to a 5- to 6-quart flameproof and ovenproof Dutch oven (or other pot) over medium-high heat and brown the meat on all sides. Remove the meat from the pot and let it sit a few minutes. If the pot is dry, add a little more oil. Add the onions and carrots and cook until they soften and start to turn a little golden. Scoop the vegetables into a bowl and set it aside. Add the wine and stir, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Rub the horseradish over every surface of the meat and add it back to the pot. Add the beef stock, cranberries, garlic, cinnamon, cloves, bay leaf and wine to the pot, cover and cook for 1 hour. Reduce the heat to 275 degrees. Lift the lid and make sure there’s still some liquid in the bottom of the pot. If there isn’t, add more wine, water or beef stock. Cook two more hours. Pull the pot out of the oven. Turn the meat over and add the potatoes and the reserved onions and carrots. Cook for another hour to hour and a half, until the vegetables are cooked through. Remove the meat from the pot. Skim any excess fat from the liquid, then bring it to a simmer and reduce slightly. Cut the meat into 1/2-inch slices, and return them to pot, nestling them in the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Don’t Call Me Son Review: Here Comes the Son At best, we’re getting half a story alex de vore alex@sfreporter.com
A moody teenage boy is thrust into a labyrinth of overwhelming heartache and confusion when he learns that the woman he believed was his mother (Lais Dias) kidnapped him as a baby
some 17 years ago. Don’t Call Me Son, from Brazilian filmmaker Anna Muylaert (The Second Mother), examines the life of young Pierre (Naomi Nero), an average teen who comes from limited means in some lower-middle-class favela of Brazil. We find Pierre hitting the major hallmarks of teen existence— whether it be staring dead-eyed into space, playing in a goofy garage rock band or engaging in indiscriminate sex at drug-fueled parties. Pierre embraces

as an emotional attack against his biological family meant to freak them out as a sort of misguided punishment. It would only be natural that he’d vilify the people who he perceives to have stolen the life he knew and his “mother,” the only constant force in his life, but the über-macho and prejudiced reaction from his biological father (Matheus Nachteragle) seems more like emotionally manipulative trope than worthwhile storytelling mechanic. Don’t Call Me Son ultimately doesn’t explore Pierre’s sexuality to any meaningful degree, nor does it examine the fallout of his kidnapping and subsequent new life. Instead, it dwells on awkward exchanges and uncomfortable silences without coming to any resolutions. Obviously real life doesn’t always wrap things up in satisfying ways, but Muylaert doesn’t do enough to delve into adolescent gender politics, Pierre’s overwhelming angst or even the relationships between families. What’s left is a slow-paced series of events that are never explored to any depth and a murky idea of a boy who we never truly get to know.

a more fluid sexuality and loves to dress in women’s clothing, though these are secrets he mostly keeps to himself for much of the film, suggesting that he is ashamed of himself. But when his birth parents miraculously track him down and expect him to come live with them, everything changes and Pierre must adjust to a more straight-laced family that puts unthinkable pressure on the boy to live up to whatever impossibly idealized version of him they’ve concocted in their heads over the years. The setup is certainly interesting, especially when we learn that Pierre’s sister was also apparently stolen as a baby, but the degree to which we’re supposed to read between the lines and interpret the characters’ feelings is absurd. Far too often Pierre simply clams up entirely, putting the onus on the audience to assign our own emotions to his predicament. Is he horrified? Does he miss his surrogate mother? Why would they point out the younger sister was also kidnapped and then never revisit what this does to her or her relationship with Pierre? The indie tone does buy the film a little leeway, but Pierre’s introspection too often comes across as the lacking of strong story elements. Even more baffling is his eventual declaration of his penchant for crossdressing, which comes out not as a statement on self-discovery or love or even just being who he is, but rather

FIRE AT SEA Italian filmmaker Gianfranco Rosi (Sacro GRA) profiles the Sicilian island of Lampedusa, a refugee landing spot during the European migrant crisis of 2015, but Fire at Sea isn’t structured like most documentaries comprised of interviews, expert witness and narration. Rosi instead puts storytelling in the back seat and allows his footage to be interpreted differently from viewer to viewer, careful not to coddle our perception of immigration as he depicts the world of hardships faced by migrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East in the midst of exposure, hunger and illness. Rosi provides parallels between the perils of migrating through the Mediterranean on a sinking boat and the everyday life on Lampedusa. The footage focuses on a 12-year-old boy named Samuele Pucillo who endlessly explores the island in search of adventure. Rosi captures Pucillo’s routine and compares it to that of a refugee—Pucillo plays with his slingshot and struggles with poor vision and shortness of breath as refugees are lifelessly dragged from their boat by the Italian Coastguard to be either rescued or buried. Fire at Sea succeeds in conveying the trials faced by the refugees with ruthless and raw footage. Though Fire at Sea does well at
establishing its message, it fails to evolve into a full-fledged narrative. Rosi’s completed work is disorganized and sporadic and struggles with consistency and purpose. Even the juxtaposition of dying refugees and a young boy at play is more of a cause for discomfort than a political statement on the truth of the crisis. The film’s driving force is fleeting as the minutes go by, and though we are drawn to the refugees’ song of struggle as they proudly sing from underneath their boat, viewers might become desensitized, much like the Sicilian islanders, thereby making it easy to lose most of our emotional investment in the story. (Kim Jones) Center for Contemporary Arts, NR, 108 min.
FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM We follow the hijinks of a young wizard named Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne of Les Misérables), a sort of conservationist/ magic ecologist who travels the globe both searching for and educating folks about rare magical beasts and having just such a delightfully absurd yet appropriate name. For those familiar with the Harry Potter fiction, we can think of Newt like a sort of precursor to the beast-loving Hagrid from the original run of books and films, especially in his inability to accept that some beasts
are just plain dangerous. It’s 1926 in New York City and oh, man, wouldn’t you know it—a bunch of Newt’s beasts get loose! If that wasn’t hard enough for the guy, the American magic community sure is different than the British one to which we’ve grown accustomed via JK Rowling’s other works. Muggles (non-magic folk) are here called “no-maj,” and it’s hard to decide if it’s insulting or just right that the American version of such a concept is the least creative descriptor of all time. Just as Newt comes to New York, a malevolent invisible force starts killing people, and our adorable little hero must join up with a disgraced magic cop named Tina (Katherine Waterston of Inherent Vice), her mind-reading sister Queenie (Alison Sudol) and a no-maj named Kowalski (Dan Fogler) who just wants to open a damn bakery but is swept up in the madness. Everyone obviously blames Newt and his magic creatures, but it seems like the mysterious Graves (who is like, the vice president of magic or something and played by Colin Farrell) knows more than he’s letting on and anyway—Newt dresses in bright colors, so he can’t possibly be bad. Potter-heads will no doubt feel excitement at the prospect of revisiting the world of Rowling’s creation, but make no mistake about the feel of Fantastic Beasts: CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

Fire at Sea is one of those non-doc documentaries.
It’s just not quite the same. It sure is fun, though, and with a reported four more films in the series on the way, all directed by Potter veteran David Yates, there’s still time to do better. If nothing else, the huge reveal at the end is pretty exciting (no spoilers), just don’t expect to love it unless you’re already into this stuff. (Alex De Vore) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 133 min.
MOONLIGHT
In a new work based on the previously unproduced screenplay In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue by Tarell Alvin McCraney, director Barry Jenkins (Medicine for Melancholy) brings us a romantic drama fueled by self-discovery. A young boy grows up in Miami during the ’70s and ’80s while struggling to accept his identity. We tour through three significant chapters of Chiron’s life, from timid boy to deluded man, as played at various ages by newcomer Alex Hibbert, Ashton Sanders from Straight Outta Compton and Westworld’s Trevante Rhodes. Chiron must navigate a veritable minefield of adolescent strife, from a drug-addicted mother, an antihero crack dealer named Juan (Mahershala Ali) and his budding sexuality with lifelong friend Kevin (Jharrell Jerome and André Holland). Moonlight focuses on the paradoxical question of who you are and who you are expected to be, as Chiron learns he can be open with Kevin sans judgment and utilizes that presence as a safe space. Chiron uncomfortably flits through adulthood, defying the stereotypes of gay and black men, but eventually becoming a crack dealer running the inner city of Atlanta. When Chiron and Kevin reconnect in adulthood, however, Chiron must evaluate who he has become and who he has portrayed himself to be. The gritty plot is beautifully accompanied by ambient lighting and carefully composed scenes, further supporting the poignancy each character brings to the screen, and though Chiron’s voice is rarely heard, he expresses himself with his actions, whether violent or passionate. Moonlight thus becomes a cinematic masterpiece, a journey of love, loss and self-discovery that will leave viewers captivated by Chiron’s character long after the film is over. (KJ) Center for Contemporary Arts, Violet Crown, R, 111 min.
ARRIVAL
Half the country is celebrating the arrival of an iconoclastic new leader, while the other half is gripped with despondency and even fear. It’s hard not to think about this when watching Arrival, an aliens-to-Earth film that’s less about first contact than first communication.
Twelve black, split-shaped ovoids simultaneously appear around the planet, each measuring 1,500 feet high and hovering mere meters above the surface. The arrival of these ships triggers immediate hysteria—air travel is grounded, gun sales are barred, food rationing begins. Looting and mass suicides follow. The world’s militaries also mobilize, including efforts to communicate with the aliens. The US Army converges on a ship stationed above the green prairie of Montana, recruiting linguist Louise Banks (Amy Adams) and mathematician Ian Donnelly (Jeremy Renner) to help translate the aliens’ language. Director Denis Villeneuve (Sicario; Prisoners) seems to deliberately invite comparisons to cinematic classics like Close Encounters of the Third Kind and The Day the Earth Stood Still. It’s certainly no coincidence that the rectangular, translucent barrier separating humans visiting the spacecraft from the onboard extraterrestrials resembles a movie theater screen. Banks gradually decodes the method of communication used by the “heptapods,” large, barrel-shaped beings whose seven tentacled legs emit an inky secretion that forms their advanced written language. Arrival opens with a montage depicting the birth, life, and death of Banks’ young daughter, Hannah, and this personal melancholy hangs over the film and informs its ultimate destination. Like Hannah’s name, the narrative is a palindrome, with a common beginning and end. The heptapods’ nonlinear language, expressed as innumerable, circular semagrams, triggers a linguistic relativity in Banks that eventually extends to the viewer’s interpretation of the story. These weighty concepts, so central to the source material (Ted Chiang’s short story Story of Your Life), translate unevenly to film. Arrival’s latter half becomes bogged down in the existential themes and ponderous presentation of Banks’ transfiguration into soothsayer and then savior, which stays stubbornly esoteric. Resonance remains in the juxtaposition between Banks’ linguistic aims and the response of divergent, suspicious nations. After scientists misinterpret a heptapod symbol as referring to the use of a “weapon,” the reaction of world and military leaders is akin to a police officer mistakenly believing he hears the word “gun” during a traffic stop or a political rally. Rogue, trigger-happy soldiers take matters into their own hands. The plug is pulled on a broadcast interface that experts around the globe use to share resources about communicating with the aliens—each of the dozen or so splitscreens go dark, each noticeably emblazoned with the word “Disconnected.” Following the results of our recent election, many eagerly expect a revival of older

It feels like we’ve never felt more disconnected. (Neil Morris) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 116 min.
THE HANDMAIDEN A clever grifter named Fujiwara (Jung-woo Ha) has painstakingly devised a plot to marry a crazy rich young noblewoman named Lady Hideko (Min-hee Kim) by posing as a Japanese count. Once he’s got her hand, he’ll commit Hideko to a madhouse, thereby claiming her vast fortune. It’s a two-person job, though, and Fujiwara enlists the help of a young thief named Sook-Hee (Kim Tae-ri), who assumes the role of Hideko’s handmaiden so as to gently nudge her toward marrying the bastard. The plan seems simple enough but, wouldn’t you know it, Hideko is kind of spooky and maybe smarter than she lets on, and her perverse uncle Kozuki (Jin-woong Jo) has trained her since she was a child to read erotic stories aloud to groups of similarly pervy rich guys at swanky auctionlike events. From the suicide of her aunt to her
uncle’s massive library of sex stories, shit’s weird at Hideko’s house, but Sook-Hee starts to fall in love, all the while dealing with the count’s lust for money and the creepy goings-on at the estate. Min-hee Kim and Kim Tae-ri’s onscreen chemistry is the stuff of cinematic legend, a perfect blend of overpowering lust and passionate love so believable and so intense that it’s almost difficult to watch, yet we cannot look away. Park grasps even the ugly elements of love such as irrational jealousy or the darker side of sexuality. It’s difficult to tell who’s conning whom, but that just keeps things interesting right up to the satisfying conclusion, and even when we’re positive we know how the chips may fall, our assumptions generally prove misguided. Thus, The Handmaiden becomes a multilayered juxtaposition between sex and violence—an uncomfortable premise for some, certainly, but the type of story that practically forces us to examine our own sexual issues— especially the weird ones—and keeps us guessing the whole damn time.
