WEDNESDAY 11 APRIL AT 7PM LENSIC PERFORMING ARTS CENTER Anyone who truly cares about children must be repelled by the insistence on ranking them, rating them, and labeling them. Whatever the tests measure is not the sum and substance of any child. The tests do not measure character, spirit, heart, soul, potential. When overused and misused, when attached to high stakes, the tests stifle the very creativity and ingenuity that our society needs most. Creativity and ingenuity stubbornly resist standardization. Tests should be used sparingly to help students and teachers, not to allocate rewards and punishments and not to label children and adults by their scores. — from Reign of Error: The Hoax of the Privatization Movement and the Danger to America’s Public Schools © 2013

WEDNESDAY 18 APRIL AT 7PM LENSIC PERFORMING ARTS CENTER Rachel Kushner’s first novel, Telex from Cuba, is set in Oriente, Cuba, in an expat community funded by the United Fruit Company and a nickel mine, during the years leading up to Castro’s revolution. Of the book, the New York Times wrote, “Out of tropical rot, Kushner has fashioned a story that will linger like a whiff of decadent Colony perfume.” Her second novel, The Flamethrowers, is set mostly in the mid-1970s and follows the life of Reno, so named for her place of birth, a young artist who comes to New York intent on marrying her love of motorcycles, speed, and art. The title takes its name from weapons used by the Italian Arditi, a division of elite shock troops that operated during the First World War. Kushner has twice been a finalist for the National Book Award and is a Guggenheim Fellow. Her fiction and essays appear regularly in the New York Times, the Paris Review, The Believer, Artforum, Bookforum, Fence, Bomb, and Grand Street.

It’s very rare for a wine writer to tell it like it is. Her article pulled no punches. Mary Francis has an impeccable wine palate. She has rendered an invaluable service by suggesting local wine lovers avoid these wines. It’s OK if Noisy Water wishes to rip off the Santa Fe tourist trade, but us local winos are now well advised.
introduce novice drinkers to the wine, and to combat the pretentiousness generally associated with the industry. There are many consumers who have drastically different preferences than the author and her article highlighted the industry pretentiousness we specifically try to avoid. I would have loved to pour wine for the author that more prestigious writers and much higher accredited professionals are writing amazing things about, but we were never given a chance. If the author would have made attempt to contact me before slamming us I would have let her know we soft-opened in December and we are beta testing the Santa Fe market to see what works and what doesn’t. We are making changes weekly as we want to give the best impression of our wine and New Mexico wine for the masses that visit our amazing state. This is something I hope the author takes into consideration before slamming an industry in a state that needs industry.

Dire Wolf Court rules federal methods ignore warnings from scientists BY ELIZABETH MILLER e l i z a b e t h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
A
federal judge has ruled that the Fish and Wildlife Service needs to revisit its management strategies for endangered Mexican gray wolves and reassess its application of the science for recovering the species. The experimental population rule the service has been using, the judge decided, allows for shortterm survival but fails to promote long-term recovery of the species. “This case is unique in that the same scientists that are cited by the agency publicly communicated their concern that the agency misapplied and misinterpreted findings in such a manner that the recovery of the species is compromised,” US District Court Judge Jennifer Zipps wrote in her ruling Monday. “To ignore this dire warning was an egregious oversight by the agency.” The three practices challenged by the case, whose plaintiffs include Defenders of Wildlife and the Center for Biological Diversity, were those that capped the total population of Mexican wolves, barred the animals from certain habitat and loosened requirements for killing wolves. These practices were codified in a 2015 federal management rule and are mirrored in the recovery plan for Mexican wolves that was finalized in November, which has also been challenged in a separate court case. “There will be a ripple effect, but what that effect is is unclear,” says Christopher Smith, a southern Rockies wildlife advocate for WildEarth Guardians. The 2015 management rule limited the reintroduced population to 325 wolves. A scientific panel convened years before suggested a recovered, self-sustaining population would be twice that size. The rule also set I-40 as the northern boundary for Mexican

wolf habitat and allowed for killing wolves without concern for genetically important individuals in response to conflicts with ranchers. The service is working with a population of wolves that stem from seven animals and faces a genetic bottleneck that limits the ability to successfully reproduce. “This decision makes clear that the Fish and Wildlife Service has to do more to protect and recover endangered Mexican wolves,” Andrea Santarsiere, a senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity, said in a news release. “With only 114 Mexican wolves left in the wild, the government cannot take a slow and incremental approach to recovery. We need more wolves in more places, including the Grand Canyon in Arizona and southern Rockies in New Mexico.” Management of Mexican wolves has long worked to balance the interests of ranchers grazing cattle in the area where the endangered species is trying to regain footing. Fish and Wildlife Service staff members discussing the recovery plan have acknowledged that reality, and that some of their decisions, like setting I-40 as the northern boundary for Mexican wolf habitat, has less to do with ecology than it does with social tolerance. The judge called this boundary “arbitrary” and pointed toward previous acknowledgements from the service that a wild, self-sustaining population would need territories north of I-40. When the Fish and Wildlife Service was proposing these rule changes in 2014, the scientists whose work was cited extensively in the service’s final environmental impact statement wrote to express their concern that “these citations misstate, misinterpret or provide incorrect context for the results and implications of our studies.” Their concerns chiefly took issue with how the service calculated extinction risk and genetic degradation. They concluded that the proposed plan could have negative effects on the genetic viability of the species in the short term that would translate to a decreased likelihood that they’ll recover in the long run. The decision comes just days after the 20-year anniversary of the return of Mexican wolves to the wild and the launch of a formal recovery effort. The Fish and Wildlife Service was not immediately available for comment on the ruling. The judge gave government officials 30 days to propose a deadline for publishing a revised rule.

Santa Fe drops cash to make using the city’s airport more flyer-friendly

he Santa Fe Regional Airport sells itself on a throwback experience. Off the plane, onto the tarmac, into the terminal. The good old days of air travel, reborn. But there’s a limit to what passengers are willing to endure in the name of authenticity. Right now, there’s not much space inside the terminal, and none of the technology many passengers take for granted. Every bag is hand-searched. Every person walks through a magnetic detector. It’s not just time-consuming, it’s intrusive. Baggage claim is inefficient. Then there’s the restaurant situation, where hot food exists only outside the secure waiting area. With a nod to Johnny Cash, interim airport chief Nick Schiavo is hoping to build a better airport, one piece at a time. Next week, crews are scheduled to install a body-scanning booth that should speed the boarding process and make flying out of the small airport more convenient. It will also give flyers who’ve paid for the TSA PreCheck program the ability to bypass any lines that have formed. “Bottom line is to improve the customer experience,” Schiavo tells SFR.
TOM MAGLIERY
Visitors will soon have more room in the baggage claim and passenger waiting areas, but not for the $40-million price tag discussed earlier last year.
He’s been assessing the airport since former director Cameron Humphres left last year, and he sees a number of options for making the air travel to and from Santa Fe less painful. City Council and the mayor have already approved the $20,000 needed to move a wall and install the body scanner. In a few months, they’ll spend $100,000 to make more structural changes inside the airport to accommodate a luggage scanner. TSA will foot the bill for the scanners themselves. As recently as last year, the city was discussing the possibility of building a $36-$40 million airport terminal. The current spending by Schiavo would buy more life from the existing facility in the short term. “The updates are overdue,” explains Northern New Mexico Air Alliance Executive Director Stuart Kirk. His public-private partnership formed to promote air travel to and from Santa Fe, including more direct flights. United Airlines, he says, plans to start a third daily roundtrip to Denver on Saturday, giving the airport six daily commercial flights.
Kirk says improving the existing facility and increasing passenger traffic will better prove the need for a more expensive terminal replacement later. As Kirk’s group has asked passengers about their experience in Santa Fe, he says the lack of technology has come up “almost every time, especially the body scanners. People just are used to airports now having that type of modern equipment. In most airports, the scanning experience is pretty quick.” Schiavo says luggage inspection is currently as rudimentary as it gets: “Right now, the only luggage inspection process is to open a bag and look in. And people are uncomfortable with that.” He also has two ideas to pitch to the governing body that he thinks will help make the traveling experience a little
NEWS
smoother. The first is to replace the old roller system for delivering luggage to the terminal with a carousel that can be loaded outside in a covered space and delivered to passengers waiting inside. There’s only room for about 10 pieces of luggage on the baggage claim right now, and access is severely limited if a traveler spots their bag on the rollers. In some areas, they have to duck under a TV monitor. Then there’s the guy working baggage claim outside. “He can’t see inside the building,” Schiavo says. “So he just gives [the bag] a good, hard shove. But you could have hands on the other side.” Baggage claim isn’t the only part of the airport that gets cramped during busy times. The departure lounge on the other side of the security checkpoint is just barely big enough to handle a full load on the biggest outbound planes. “Some of the planes now hold 70 people, and we only have, like, 62 seats for people in the waiting area,” Schiavo explains. That’s usually okay if everything is running on time, he says, but if there’s a delay or if airlines want to schedule flights closer together, there’s trouble. The restaurant at the airport has given notice that it’s going to go close, however, and Schiavo says he’d like to knock down a wall and expand the secure waiting area by almost 50 percent. His idea is to have prepared sandwiches or burritos ready to sell inside the secure part of the terminal and then, potentially, to have food trucks outside. He doesn’t have any commitments yet, but he says some food truck owners are curious about the 300 people a day who move through the airport. Elsewhere in the city, Economic Development Director Matt Brown says an improved airport experience is in the city’s best interest. “The CEO of a Fortune 500 company who has a home here said to me, ‘Ask a CEO what they need and they’ll say first, money or sales, and then they need infrastructure to work,’” Brown explains. “[For the airport], that means more direct flights. Time is money. Every minute that they spend driving to Albuquerque, they’re losing money losing or losing impact on their business.” “Having that kind of experience here makes Santa Fe a much more vital economic center or hub for any business that’s here or wants to be here,” he tells SFR. And then, of Schiavo: “If Nick’s doing it,” Brown laughs, “I’m on board.”

Death By Jail BY AARON CANTÚ a a r o n @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
T
he deaths of at least three shortterm inmates since 2015 at the Santa Fe County Adult Correctional Facility are raising questions about medical treatment at the jail—more than 15 years after the US Department of Justice reprimanded the jail for violating inmates’ constitutional rights in similar ways. Family members of the three men who died are now either suing the county or preparing to sue with the Rothstein Donatelli firm. Two of the deceased, Thomas Pederson and John DeLaura, were dead within 48 hours after being booked while extremely drunk in March 2015 and December 2016, respectively. Another man, Ricardo Jose Ortiz, died from symptoms of opioid overdose four days after being booked in January 2016. Attorney Carolyn Nichols, a partner at the firm who is handling lawsuits on behalf of Ortiz’ and Pederson’s surviving families, says the three deaths represent a possible “emerging pattern” of medical neglect at the jail, adding that she hopes the county will settle the DeLaura matter before her firm files a lawsuit for his widow. Nichols sent a tort claim notice to the Santa Fe County clerk in May on behalf of Lois DeLaura. City police arrested him at their home following an argument. The attorney says Lois gave the arresting officers a list of four medications her husband regularly took, including prescriptions for hypertension, anxiety and pain. According to Nichols, the nurse who assessed DeLaura’s health a few hours after police booked him appeared to do an incomplete job of noting his medical needs and condition. For example, the form only listed two of his four prescription medications, and the nurse also left blank a question asking whether DeLaura was intoxicated at the time of the intake, even though the OMI report later said he was likely drunk at the time. The autopsy lists his chief cause of death the morning of Dec. 18, 2016, as cirrhosis of the liver and alcohol withdrawal, with hypertensive cardiovascular disease as a significant contributing factor. It also says jailers kept him in a

holding cell for 22 hours until he suffered a fatal seizure. The tort claims notice the firm sent to the county alleges that DeLaura and others on his behalf “requested but was refused and denied proper medical attention,” and attributed his death to the “deliberate indifference to [his] medical needs” by jail officials. “Alcoholics are particularly dangerous” to themselves while incarcerated, Nichols tells SFR. “If [the jail] has someone on their hands who they know is at a high risk of fatality, and they don’t do anything they’re equipped to do and make

sure that person doesn’t suffer a potentially fatal complication,” they’re responsible, she says. The alleged circumstances surrounding DeLaura’s death recall a Department of Justice assessment from 2002 that criticized the jail for similar oversights. That year, while the private prison company Management and Training
Corporation (MTC) still managed and operated the jail, Assistant US Attorney General Ralph Boyd sent a letter to the Santa Fe County Commission declaring medical treatment at the facility to be inadequate in five different areas, including inmate intake and medication administration. After reviewing jail records, the Justice Department found that a majority of inmates never received full health appraisals while incarcerated, and that “even when [health] staff identify inmates with serious medical needs, they fail to refer them for appropriate care.” The letter cites inmates who regularly take medication for hypertension as being vulnerable to poor intake procedures, and also says the jail’s officers were “insufficiently trained in the detection and handling of intoxicated inmates.” The county and MTC agreed in 2004 to come under the oversight of the Justice Department in order to address its defects. That agreement ended in 2009, by which time MTC had left and the county was running its jail directly. County spokeswoman Kristine Mihelcic tells SFR the facility currently employs one psychiatrist, one physician and a nursing staff, and hires nurses on contract “when we need additional nurses.” She says the county will not comment on pending or threatened litigation. Nichols says it’s unclear why deaths allegedly due to improper medical treatment continue to occur even after drawing the ire of the federal government over a decade ago. “It seemed like things were getting better; I’m not sure what’s caused this situation to deteriorate like it has,” she says. Last month, Nichols’ firm filed an amended complaint in the death of Pederson on behalf of his surviving sister in the First Judicial District Court, alleging that the nurse who performed his intake did not adequately assess his risk of severe alcohol withdrawal.
ANSON STEVENS-BOLLEN
S FR E P O RTE R .CO M / N E WS
Police booked Pederson on charges of misdemeanor DWI and careless driving the evening of March 15, 2015, shortly after a doctor at Christus St. Vincent measured his blood alcohol level at six or seven times the legal limit. He collapsed from a seizure at the jail the next night, and died shortly after; the OMI listed his death as alcohol abuse with obesity as a contributing factor. Although the deaths of both DeLaura and Pederson were alcohol-induced, Nichols says the death of a third Santa Fe man from opioid withdrawal, Ricardo Jose Ortiz, is reflective of a similarly sloppy approach to inmate care. In that complaint against the Santa Fe County Commission and several jail workers, filed in US District Court for the District of New Mexico in January, lawyers allege that the nurse who filled out his intake form left numerous sections pertaining to his opioid use blank, and inaccurately documented his medical history. Santa Fe city police booked Ortiz for larceny on Jan. 4, 2016. The morning after a fellow inmate said Ortiz had been “groaning all night,” a corrections officer found Ortiz’ naked body lying half off the bed, with bodily fluids covering the floor and walls of his cell. A medical examiner pronounced him dead the morning of Jan. 7, and listed his cause of death as acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage due to probable heroin withdrawal.

ederal immigration agents visited Santa Fe restaurants and a tree farm this spring. Sometimes they concealed their true identities, pretending to be customers; other times they flashed their badges. The businesses appear to have little in common aside from employing people of Mexican descent. Sanctuary city or not, employers are nervous, workers have vanished, and many are preparing for possible detainment and deportation. So far, neither has been widespread in Santa Fe. But even after weeks of reporting, details of recent actions in the city by the US Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agency aren’t well known. That’s because ICE isn’t talking—and neither, for the most part, are local businesses or immigrants. But Albuquerque-based immigration attorney Olsi Vrapi has a theory: Since Santa Fe actively undermines immigration operations by prohibiting police cooperation with the federal agency, ICE may find it more convenient to catch people through employment visits under the authority of a 1986 immigration law than by working with the city. “The government essentially deputized every employer in the US to enforce immigration law,” Vrapi tells SFR. “Because the employers are supposed to check things” including residency documents and work permits, he says, ICE is essentially asking them to perform immigration checks for the agency under the threat of penalty. ICE confirms it issued notices of inspection, the start of worksite audits, in Santa Fe and elsewhere in the region from Feb. 26 to March 2. The ICE investigative unit served notices to 63 businesses in New Mexico, and the Albuquerque Regional office says at least 23 people in this state and West Texas were detained during the sweep. Yet, citing its open investigations, the agency refuses to disclose which businesses were hit in Santa Fe. Because the investigations are ongoing, many people approached for this story kept mum. Employers risk hun-
dreds or thousands of dollars in fines and even (though less likely) criminal penalties for employing undocumented workers. Workers who lack permission from the federal government to hold jobs face the difficult choice of staying and risking detainment, or quitting work and losing their livelihoods. Somos un Pueblo Unido—an immigration advocacy group that held a joint news conference with the public schools and city officials in March—says at least six businesses in Santa Fe are being audited, but will not disclose their names because the inspections are ongoing, and the group believes ICE’s actions to be unjust regardless of federal law. SFR could confirm just three visits by ICE officials in the city. At the end of 2017, Acting Director of ICE Thomas Homan pledged a 400 to 500 percent increase in worksite visits across the country. Roughly 200 businesses in Los Angeles and Northern California were served subpoenas in February, and in late January, 7-Eleven stores across the country were visited by agents. “Not only are we going to prosecute employers that hire illegal workers, we’re going to detain and remove the illegal alien workers,” Homan said to a conservative group last October, adding later, “We’re always going to arrest a person who is here illegally. That is our job.” In other parts of the country, ICE has imprisoned and deported teachers, caregivers, business owners and even sick children. Undocumented people in Santa Fe know that any of them could be next. There’s a stack of violet fliers next to a ceramic Virgin Mary statue on a shelf when you first walk in to Café Castro. The publications from Somos un Pueblo Unido advise people of their rights if confronted by ICE at home or at work. The upshot: Keep your mouth shut. Nearby, taped to the cash register at the front where owner Julia Castro takes orders, is a clipped-out op-ed from the Santa Fe New Mexican from March 10, with the headline: “Dark days for immigrants.” On a window outside Café Castro, which has served up affordable New Mexican dishes for nearly 30 years, a poster that says “Immigrants Make Us Stronger” clings to a window.
AARON CANTÚ COURTESY UNITED STATES IMMIGRATION AND CUSTOMS ENFORCEMENT
All of these messages say something that Castro can’t. She is unable to talk about when agents from ICE visited her restaurant a few weeks ago with a subpoena asking for documents related to legal authorizations for employees. Her concern is reasonable: The American Civil Liberties Union says about two dozen people across the US who have publicly criticized ICE in the last year were targeted by the agency for detainment or fines. Castro hasn’t shied away from speaking to reporters in the past. Three years ago, she told SFR her restaurant’s success was due to her Salvadoran-born husband Carlos, who took the recipes he learned while working as a cook at Tomasita’s to inspire his own successful eatery in 1990. Carlos, who is now an American citizen, moved to the United States from El Salvador with his late cousin Arquimedes “Kimo” Castro. Remembered for promoting sanctuary for refugees in Santa Fe, Kimo bought The Burrito Company restaurant on Washington Avenue downtown with his wife Eleanor Castro in 2005. Agents from ICE visited Burrito Co. in early March, too, ordering food and then taking pictures of the space, but Eleanor, now a widow, says they did not serve her any papers. She tells SFR the agents identified themselves, but is afraid to say more about the visit. Managers at the Santa Fe Tree Farm, located in the Agua Fría traditional historic community, were the only ICE targets willing to sit down for an interview with

SFR. As far as they can tell, two ICE agents first showed up in late February. They pretended to be customers and asked the farm’s secretary, Bianca Herrera, to take them on a tour of the 10-acre property. She never doubted their story. “We just walked around and they kinda saw the land, the equipment we used, and asked how many employees we had,” Herrera says. “They said they had just moved from Connecticut or something like that.” The agents returned a week later, on Feb. 27, carrying sidearms and a subpoena for the farm’s I-9 forms from the past year. The Department of Homeland Security requires that employers examine, but not collect, all employees’ documentation relating to their identity and eligibility to work in the country and record that information on I-9 forms. Herrera says the agents also apologized for lying during their initial visit. Days later, they phoned her to ask for copies of the farm’s employees’ residency documents, which employers are not legally required to retain. A copy of the subpoena reviewed by SFR shows that ICE also asked the farm for “all correspondence from the Social Security Administration to the employer regarding mismatched SSNs” and a list of independent contractors and staffing companies “currently providing employees to the business.” The farm produced the I-9 forms within three days of the initial visit, as demanded by the agents, Herrera said. ICE ICE confirms it conducted enforcement in our region also gave her additional time to from Feb. 26 to March 2, but won’t say much else. gather the other requested ma-
terials. A handful of workers have stopped showing up. Yet, the owner of the business could also be in the crosshairs. Chevo Serna was an employee before buying the tree farm five years ago from the previous owner. During the 1990s, Serna says, his parents applied to make him a lawful permanent resident, but he was disqualified because he turned 21 before the government approved their application. Later, after the Obama administration issued a 2011 memo advising ICE to de-prioritize people without criminal records and with strong ties to their communities, Serna, who is from Mexico, applied for a legal permit to work. That process is ongoing, he says. But based on new guidance issued by DHS early in Trump’s presidency, he’s unsure whether he’s now a target for deportation. The agency said last January that anybody who has “committed an act for which they could face [criminal] charges” is a candidate for deportation, and advocates say this includes illegally entering or remaining in the country. Serna, who says he’s already paid off his business in full and grown its profits, says his conscience is clear—whatever his future holds. “I’m trying to do everything as straight as possible. I’m in this situation at this point, and I’m tired,” Serna tells SFR. “I’m not a criminal, I’m a hard worker, and I can prove it. … What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” On March 9, a Friday night, several dozen people filled the San Isidro Catholic Church in Agua Fría to learn what to do if ICE shows up to their jobs or homes. Small children ran through rows of chairs accented by bright-red cushions, and a massive sculpture of Jesus nailed to a cross loomed over the room.
Teenagers and young adults took notes for older relatives as they listened to the presentation in Spanish. Undocumented workers are often able to hold jobs and skirt the law by falsifying paperwork, but once ICE shows up to their workplace, they have few options to avoid deportation. For example, said presenter and attorney Gabriela Ibañez Guzmán with Somos un Pueblo Unido, if ICE decides to audit an employer and an employee is concerned that the government will discover their undocumented status, that employee might be better off leaving the job and never returning. “Each one of us has to make this decision when we know la migra has arrived,” Guzmán said. She acknowledged the financial disaster suddenly quitting can cause a family, telling the people in the room they should ask their employers for their final paycheck before leaving. After the training session, a worker who spoke with SFR and did not want to give her name said she and her co-workers were designing a plan for what to do if agents showed up to their job. As part of that plan, they’ve informed their employer that ICE cannot legally enter private areas of their workplace without a warrant. “These [I-9] forms they’re asking for, we’re worried what will happen if [ICE] uses the information to come to our homes,” she says. “We want to protect each other as much as we can.” Over the next month or two, according to immigration advocates, ICE will be verifying employee records from places audited the week of Feb. 26.

If the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security had her way, Santa Fe’s mayor and city councilors would be prosecuted. DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said in January her agency was consulting with the Department of Justice to figure out “what avenues might be available” to criminally charge politicians in sanctuary cities. Javier Gonzales publicly taunted the Trump administration after Nielsen’s announcement when he was still mayor, and current Mayor Alan Webber said in his inaugural speech that Santa Fe would represent a “sanctuary for every member of our community.” “I’m not going to waste my time wondering what [the Trump administration] is going to do,” Webber tells SFR when asked about the threat of prosecution from DHS. On March 26, city manager Brian Snyder sent an email on behalf of the mayor to all city employees, advising them to direct any inquiries from federal immigration agencies to the city attorney’s office. So far, says spokesman Matt Ross,
ICE has not visited any city department or asked for assistance. A resolution adopted in February 2017 re-affirmed the city’s sanctuary status and includes a provision prohibiting workers from supplying information about a person’s residency status except when the law demands it. It also states city officials must deny immigration agents access to private areas on city property and city departments will not voluntarily use E-Verify, a federal program that crosschecks potential employee information with Department of Homeland Security databases. Even so, one employer tells SFR that visiting ICE agents recommended they enroll in the program, which the ACLU calls “a flawed system that is riddled with errors” that creates a national blacklist of unemployables. The city government can’t prevent anyone else from enrolling. It’s just one example of how limited a city’s sanctuary policies can be in practice. The former mayor acknowledged as much when news of the audits went public on March 5.

not clear why some have been targeted instead of others. Tip-offs from agencies that do cooperate with ICE, such as the state Corrections Department, can trigger an audit, Vrapi says. So can an anonymous phone call. According to John Fay, a Phoenixbased attorney and executive at LawLogix, a software company that makes employee-tracking tools for employers, establishments that are audited by ICE can be penalized for a range of technical and substantive violations. “The current fine range [for each violation] goes from $224 up to $2,236,” Fay says. “The fines can get very high, very quickly.” Smaller businesses, he says, “are disproportionately and perhaps unfairly affected” because they have less staff to handle the requests. Sometimes ICE will reduce fine amounts, depending on the size of the company and the “good faith” effort with which it complies with requests. The audits can also be ruinous. In one case from last November, a tree-pruning company in Pennsylvania was fined $95 million for recruiting and employing undocumented people over several years. “[Trump] says if these workers leave, it will open up more opportunities for US workers,” says Fay, “but it’s highly debatable.” A lengthy report released last year by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, a scientific collective that has advised US policy since the mid-1800s, concluded that there was “little evidence that immigration significantly affects the overall employment levels of native-born workers.” The only reported employment sector that suffers is jobs for teenagers. Meanwhile, the far-right anti-immigration group Center for Immigration Studies thinks the audits do not go far enough in catching undocumented workers.
ICE agents visited Chevo Serna, owner of the Santa Fe Tree Farm, and secretary Bianca Herrera as part of a statewide enforcement effort. On their first visit, agents lied about who they were.
“[What] we can’t do under our welcoming policies is fully protect you when there are raids that take place,” Gonzales said at the time. At publication time, Webber tells SFR the city has drafted a letter for New Mexico’s Congressional delegation describing the audits that have taken place. The letter will also ask the delegation to find out how many people and businesses in Santa Fe were targeted for enforcement, and the manner by which they were targeted. Simon Brackley, president and CEO of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, tells SFR he has not heard about ICE visits from any of the chamber’s 890 members. The Santa Fe Area Home Builders Association, which represents a local industry that employs many immigrants, also had not received notice from any of its members about ICE visits, according to Executive Director Kim Shanahan. He notes, however, that doesn’t mean ICE has not made visits. Construction worksites aren’t ideal places for ICE to initiate audits, Shanahan says, because the proliferation of subcontractors in the industry makes it confusing to know who actually keeps workers’ I-9 forms on file. But since so many immigrants work in home building—by his own estimate, more than 50 percent of the workforce in Santa Fe consists of immigrants—ICE’s motivation may be sneakier. “One of the fears we have is ICE [agents] show up to a job site without a warrant, just flashing badges and being intimidating, and people admit to things they shouldn’t admit to,” Shanahan says. “That’s our biggest concern instead of whether the boss has I-9s on file.” Over the phone, a manager at Blue Corn Café and Brewery on Cerrillos Road tells SFR the restaurant was visited by ICE agents the first week of March. When SFR went to the office of the restaurant’s parent company, Santa Fe Dining, company President Randy Ropek and Vice Pres-
ident of Operations Justin Svetnicka declined to confirm or deny they were being audited. The company’s former marketing director says it employs 350 to 500 workers in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. A city’s sanctuary policy is more of a political statement than a real safeguard, says Fay, the attorney and LawLogix exec. And given how federal agencies have publicly rebuked sanctuary cities and threatened to cut off certain funds for local police, Fay thinks it’s likely that immigration authorities are targeting them. “To the extent New Mexico and others have expressed sanctuary policy, or shown sympathy, I think there’s a lot of politics here at play,” Fay tells SFR. “If we mapped out some of the locations where we saw the most audits, I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out to be places where we saw sanctuary city policies in effect.” In recent weeks, President Trump has used his commitment to include a citizenship question in the US Census as a way to fundraise for re-election, further tying immigration to his political fate. Deportation appears to be part of what he sees as his mandate, no matter an immigrant’s community contributions. ICE is the main enforcer of Trump’s executive order, issued during his first days in office, that expanded deportation targets to include those without criminal records. Deportations of non-convicted people rose 171 percent from 2016 to 2017, according to CNN. In politics, the idea of outright abolishing ICE is gaining traction among Democrats running for Congress, including with Antoinette Sedillo Lopez, one of eight candidates running to replace Michelle Lujan Grisham for New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District. Practices the agency routinely carries out—separating families, denying medical care in detention, overcrowded and dirty facilities, and so on—qualify as “violations of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights,” Sedillo Lopez tells SFR. As evidence, she points to a Congressional study from last December that found there was “insufficient protection of detainees’ basic rights” at five detention centers. Anybody apprehended for an immigration violation will end up in ICE’s growing detention complex, which has facilities in New Mexico. But even before that happens, some immigrants and those close to them see the possibility of detainment as so terrifying, they drop off the map. This chilling effect makes it hard to gauge the ongoing audits’ impact on the city, which might not be known until after much of the damage is done.

Remember that your house is your sanctuary. You do not have to initiate conversation with officers at your door or window. You do not have to open the door or give them permission to enter. To enter your home without your consent, they must have a search warrant. Having only an arrest warrant or deportation order is not enough to knock down the door. If you choose to open the door, you are giving them permission to enter and then they can ask questions to everyone inside. But even so,you have the right not to answer questions or sign documents you don't understand.
Recuerda, tu casa es tu santuario. Tienes el derecho de no entablar una conversación con ellos por la puerta o la ventana. No tienes que abrir la puerta, ni darles permiso a entrar. Para poder entrar sin tu permiso necesitan una orden de cateo. Sí tener una orden de arresto o deportación no es suficiente. Si abres la puerta, estas dando autorización para que entren y hagan preguntas a todos, pero aun así tienes el derecho de no contestar preguntas y no divulgar tu origen nacional o estatus migratorio.
IF ICE COMES TO YOUR WORK
SI LA MIGRA LLEGA A TU TRABAJO
If agents come into your workplace, you have the right keep on working and not answer their questions. You can tell them that you are busy and cannot speak to them. You do not have to divulge your national origin or immigration status. ICE cannot enter private areas in your workplace without a search warrant, permission from the owner or designated supervisor, or probable cause that something illegal is happening (like someone fleeing or hiding).
Si entran a tu lugar de trabajo, tienes el derecho de no responder a sus preguntas y seguir trabajando. Les puedes decir que estas ocupado y que no puedes hablar. No tienes que divulgar tu origen nacional o estatus migratorio, ni mostrar tu identificacón. La Migra no puede entrar en las areas privadas de tu lugar de trabajo sin una orden de cateo o el permiso del patron o algun encargado del negocio.
IF YOU ENCOUNTER ICE OUTSIDE OR ON THE ROAD
SI TE ENCUENTRAS CON LA MIGRA EN LA CALLE
Stay calm. If they stop you, you do not have to engage in a conversation with them. You do not have to answer any questions, nor share your national origin or immigration status. If you decide to run, and they catch you, you will most likely be arrested. ICE cannot conduct checkpoints beyond 100 miles from the border, but if agents pull you over you do not have to answer questions about your national origin or immigration status. You do not have to give them permission to search your belongings or your car.
Manten la calma. Si te paran, no tienes hablar con ellos, ni contestar sus preguntas o divulgar tu origen nacional o estatus migratorio. Si decides correr y logran capturarte, te pueden arrestar. La Migra no puede hacer un reten despues de 100 millas de la frontera, pero si agentes detienen tu auto en la carretera, no tienes que contestar sus preguntas ni darles permiso a inspeccionar tu auto.
IF YOU ARE ARRESTED AND PUT IN JAIL
SI TE ENCUENTRAS EN LA CARCEL
You do not have to share your national origin or immigration status with anyone including jail employees, police officers or ICE agents. You can refuse to be interviewed by ICE either in person or over the phone and you don't have to sign any documents you don't understand. You can ask to speak with a lawyer and ask for an interpreter during all court proceedings if you don't understand or speak English.
No estas obligado a divulgar tu origen nacional o estatus migratorio con nadie incluyendo a empleados de la carcel, a las autoridades policias y oficial es de inmigración.

Solve Parks Backlog with Oil Boom? Congress works on a plan to repair infrastructure at national parks, but proposals link energy development to those efforts BY ELIZABETH MILLER e l i z a b e t h @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
T
hree Carlsbad Caverns National Park visitors had some extra excitement on March 26, when their elevator stranded them 740 feet below ground. A rescue team lowered themselves to the stuck car, harnessed up the visitors, and transferred them to an operational car. A press release on the incident reported that after being trapped for three and a half hours, the visitors returned to the surface “in good spirits.” This was their first elevator rescue operation, according to the National Park Service incident commander, and was caused by worn travel cable. The incident has halted elevator service at the caverns. Visitors have to hike 1.25 miles down and up the equivalent of 75 stories until another set of repairs wraps up in May. The event is just the latest headline on a backlog of infrastructure repairs for national parks. Nationwide, an estimated $11.6 billion in maintenance is past due, leaving roads potholed and visitors centers built more than 50 years ago in dire need of upgrades. New Mexico’s share of that is $123 million, and Carlsbad’s elevators account for a third of those funds. President Donald Trump’s infrastructure plan, released alongside his proposed budget in February, mapped out a strategy for addressing those repairs. Federal lawmakers are working on bills that mirror his plan, or tweak it slightly. The leading contenders at least take the funding source he suggested: revenue from energy development on federal lands. “Infrastructure is also about access for all Americans. Not all visitors to our parks have the ability to hike

with a 30-pound pack and camp in the wilderness miles away from utilities,” Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke said in a press release. That certainly feels true for anyone who has faced climbing hundreds of feet out of the underground caverns in Carlsbad (where the sexagenarian elevators were out for repairs between November 2015 and May 2016 before the latest failure). But the National Parks Conservation Association cautions that this approach of pairing revenue from energy development on public
lands to urgently needed repairs could be used as an argument for accelerating drilling in sensitive areas and potentially damage park resources. They point to an alternative proposal from Senate Democrats, who suggested repealing some of the tax credits passed late last year to funnel $5 billion to these repairs. P Daniel Smith, deputy director of the National Park Service, testified before a congressional committee that nothing in the legislation modeled after the president’s blueprint authorizes new energy development, nor is there a proposal to increase energy production in national parks. The question, he said, was just how to reinvest energy revenue into public lands. “This bill is not an incentive to develop more energy,” he said. “The administration remains very clear that it supports American energy dominance.” Testifying before the same committee, Matt Lee-Ashley, senior fellow with the Center for American Progress, pointed out that the backlog would be reduced by half if private businesses operating as concessionaires within parks were required to maintain hotels they operate and if road repairs were handed off to transportation departments. He also took issue with the approach of using money from oil, gas and mining to pay for these repairs, calling that source “dubious” and “speculative,” given the whims of the price of oil. “Our investments in our great outdoors should come from predictable and sustainable funding sources and not undermine the conservation laws that the National Park Service is obligated to protect,” he said. “We are not a country that should have to allow mining in national monuments to pay for the bathrooms in our parks.” To localize the example, we could perhaps then say the proposal relies on drilling near Chaco Canyon to spare people the climb out of Carlsbad Caverns. So it’s something of a surprise to see Sen. Martin Heinrich, a longtime champion of preservation near Chaco, among the supporters of the bill that follows the president’s blueprint. Despite repeated inquiries, the senator did not address the question of how he sees balancing these apparently competing interests. The senator’s press secretary repeated Smith’s points and also noted the similarities to the half-century-old Land and Water Conservation Fund, which uses revenue from offshore oil and gas leases. That fund historically has been used to purchase land for public use, including private land inholdings that might otherwise allow for housing or energy development within national park boundaries.

This presentation explores the relationship between contemporary culture and the turbulent times in which we live. For individuals, trauma can promote psychological development when worked through. Might this be true for the collective? Exploring films, literature and music, this presenter makes a case that collective turbulence can stimulate the emergence of new ‘feeling values.’ It will also promote the view that awareness of this perspective, the intersection of collective unconscious and individual unconscious, can enhance and deepen clinical work and provide useful orientation for the analyst/therapist. The presentation will utilize examples from film and music to demonstrate the creative workings of the collective unconscious. It will also address the conundrum of being optimistic about progress while living within an increasingly destructive and disintegrative world.
Workshop: Greed and Stealing in our Lives Saturday, April 7th 10am-1pm $40 3 CEUs
This workshop will explore personal and collective issues of greed and the related phenomena of stealing and being stolen from. Who steals from whom and why?

DANCE, DANCE EVOLUTION For some, a legitimate emotional response to dance is not easy. But when the company is Parsons Dance and the performers are dedicated and phenomenal practitioners, it becomes accessible to all. Hailing from New York City and founded by theater legends David Parsons and Howell Binkley, Parsons Dance resides on the cutting edge of the art form, a strong reminder of the self-expression inherent to dance since time immemorial and the exciting new places it can still go when placed in the bodies of the talented. Plus, dancers are always in great shape and usually good-looking. Double-score. (Alex De Vore)

MUSIC TUE/10 SWEET With Luna taking over The Bridge at Santa Fe Brewing Co. on Monday, it’s a good week for indie rock fans in Santa Fe. Take California sextet Hunny, for example. A well-balanced combination of late-’80s post-punk with new-wavey undercurrents awash with nouveau rock, Hunny crafts with enduring themes like heartache and self-realization. They’ve risen wildly since the 2015 debut single “Cry For Me,” at the time a solo work from frontman Jason Yarger. But the band filled out and the sound did, too, while everyone everywhere realized how much they dig on sad music wrapped up in a catchy-as-hell package.

THEATER THU/5- SUN/15
With Whom? Step right up and get gawkin’
In a small city with a small but talented pool of thespians, it’s easy to keep a close eye on actors whose work you particularly admire. Here at SFR, we’ve become increasingly enamored of Tallis Rose’s onstage skills; and, when we saw that she would make her directorial debut at the Santa Fe Playhouse, we figured it could go one of two ways. Thankfully, it’s gone the better of the two. Talking With… is a collection of monologues by women, written by mysterious playwright Jane Martin in 1982. (Martin doesn’t seem to exist, and is supposedly the pseudonym of—naturally—an old white dude. But that’s just speculation.) That aside, Rose has directed a cast of 11 actresses of varying familiarity with the Santa Fe scene in an engrossing production. As much as we love The Vagina Monologues and as much as it has rightfully earned its place as a jewel in the crown of feminist theater, there’s a certain exhaustion that comes with it, and with the concept of a collection of monologues by women; they’ve been done and done again. Talking With… could easily have been tired, but in Rose’s hands, it elicits
a bemused “huh” rather than a resigned bless-your-heart. She’s styled the production as a circus, with a brilliant set from Technical Director Michael Blake Oldham, and the women become sideshow freaks who are finally here to be listened to rather than just gawked at. The circus theme is not heavy-handed and sometimes disappears altogether (we maybe even would have liked it to be a little stronger), but the actresses hold their own without a unifying thread necessary. Sometimes hilarious (looking at you, Baby True, in “Audition”), sometimes spooky (Cassandra Rochelle Fetters shows what would probably come out if William Faulkner wrote about baton-twirling), sometimes heartbreaking (basically all of them at one point or another), Talking With… is a dynamic evening of theater not to be missed. For a full review, visit SFReporter.com. (Charlotte Jusinski) TALKING WITH… 7:30 pm Thursday-Saturday April 5-7; 2 pm Sunday April 8. Through April 15. $20-$25.

LUNA RETURNS 13-ISH YEARS LATER (THANK GOD)
Moon Shot BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
N
ever in my life did I think I’d see a Jawbreaker reunion, but the seminal pop-punk/ emo band re-formed for Chicago’s Riot Fest last year and reportedly have new music on the way. Hell, even a few years ago I was pretty sure I’d never have a chance to see Descendents, and they’ll be in Albuquerque this fall. Pixies got back together some years ago (no more Kim Deal, though), The Bruce Lee Band plays now and again—there’s something in the air forcing bands I loved as a teenager to get back together, and it is glorious. Enter Luna, one of those enduringly popular indie bands that all your favorite bands love; an alterna-rock outfit that rose to relative prominence throughout the ’90s and early aughts only to call it quits in 2005. They’re back, though, with a covers album (A Sentimental Education) and an instrumental EP (A Place of Greater Safety) and no shortage of touring dates across the US. Holy shit. So whaddya do when an influen-

tial band reforms, re-evaluates and releases new music? You call their damn frontman up, that’s what. SFR spoke with Luna’s Dean Wareham ahead of the band’s upcoming show at the Bridge at Santa Fe Brewing Co. A lot of bands—some of which many never thought we’d ever get to see—are getting back together. What’s up with that? I wasn’t planning on it, but I guess I didn’t rule it out. When the band broke up the first time, I was like, ‘Well, if I miss it, we can always revisit it.’ But yes, it’s true, a lot of bands get back together—maybe especially now in this era where it’s harder and harder to sell a back catalog, I feel like that used to be enough. We did a deluxe box [set], a lot more touring. Streaming … [is] not nothing, if you own your masters you can make money off of them. But it’s not good enough. Downloads for iTunes was more profitable. The streaming services are screwing the songwriters. I keep reading that vinyl is doing great, though. Like, bigger than ever. I doubt it’s bigger than ever, but it’s bigger than it’s been since the ’90s, and it’s still not huge. We sell the same amount of CDs as we do vinyl. The demand for vinyl has become so hot. Yes, it’s good, but it’s a niche market. Even the major labels get into the Record Store Day thing.
MUSIC
Does it feel like a relationship backslide? Ha! What are your crowds looking like these days? We sell a lot more XL and double-XL T-shirts. We defintely have people who are younger, not with their parents, but who grew up with Luna in the house and were only 10 when the band broke up. It’s a good chapter. We did an album of covers and an EP of instrumentals, two things we’d never done before, and that was fun and easy in the studio. Is it harder to write songs without lyrics? It’s way easier. Lyrics are hard. I think it’s always pretty easy to get a song to a certain point, but then to actually finish it, that’s the hard work. We did have to try and make sure these pieces were melodic, and I think they are.

Does the comeback mean you’re at the ‘do whatever you want’ point, and is that exciting or daunting? I think we can do what we want. With what happened to the record industry, like in the ’90s, we were, in a way, on a treadmill. We were getting paid, which was good, we had a multi-record deal, we were touring, and it was like, ‘You need to get back in the studio.’ Now it’s kind of sloweddown. We make a record when it

makes sense. I guess if I look on the schedule this year, we’ve got a little bit of touring. We manage, though. Somehow we get by. Is there ever a question you always wish someone would ask you in an interview but you never get asked? I guess not. I’ve had people get really mad at me. One guy got really mad. He was from Dallas—this was years ago—and I was talking to him about the interview process, and I said sometimes, with interviews, the interviewer can make you look like an idiot if they want; they edit these things later. He thought I was talking about him. He took offense.

Is that, like, a maturity thing? A having-fun-again thing? I feel like when we got back together, we went back and studied the recordings a little more closely. We change the setlist night to night. There are some songs we always play, but with the size of clubs we’re playing, we can always do that. I can see why bands in stadiums or bands running computers—where it’s really complicated and a lot of people using backing tracks—why they wouldn’t. But we’re allowed to screw up. We don’t—very often. Sometimes I start to feel old-fashioned. I feel old-fashioned, when clubs ask us for our stage plot and it’s like, ours is not that complicated.

OK, so you said ‘if you missed it.’ Did you miss it? It kind of came up on 10 years, and … there are things I miss about Luna. What’s nice about a band that’s been playing for a long, long, long time—it’s just kind of effortless. It’s a lot easier for us to play live than make a new record. Some of these songs we’ve been playing for so long. And you can tell when you see a band, you can tell when they’re a real band. Bands get back together, you never thought you’d see them. Everyone [in Luna] is in a better mood about it than we were in 2004. Everyone appreciates it more and is happy to be onstage. And we’re playing better than ever.

And how do you choose the covers? I have a list and I think they might be a fun one to try. You hear something you really like and you think, ‘I can rip it off or do a cover!’ And sometimes I do both. If we’re going to do Bowie, there are enough versions of ‘Heroes’ out there. It’s fun to pick songs nobody’s ever heard. If we’re going to do Rolling Stones, we’re doing ‘Waiting on a Friend.’

New show of unusual clay items at Adobe Gallery is equal parts quirky and elegant BY IRIS McLISTER |
a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
COURTESY ADOBE GALLERY
n a recent trip to Minnesota, I wandered the grand halls of the Minneapolis Institute of Art where I saw pre-Columbian gold, 17th-century Japanese scrolls, drawings by contemporary artist Kara Walker and a mid-century painting by Gene Davis. Just as mesmerizing as anything else on view was a little piece of pottery by Hopi potter Nampeyo. Encased in glass, the mounted, shallow dish was earth-colored and tenderly painted, typifying her dynamic, unpretentious style. The dish, from the late 1890s, features a Hopi figure wearing a headdress ridged in spikes of varying sizes. A scarf draped over his left shoulder contains geometric elements, but is almost playfully freeform and irregular. Nampeyo is just one of a handful of worldclass Southwestern potters included in Unique and Unusual Pueblo Pottery, an exhibit at Alexander Anthony’s 40-yearold Adobe Gallery. It has been on Canyon Road, adjacent to the Café Des Artistes, since 2001. The show’s aim is to share styles, shapes and motifs not often seen on the market— or anywhere, for that matter—with items dating from the 1880s to the 1950s. “We tried to pick out pottery that was obviously different from what was normally made,” Anthony tells SFR. “These items were made either in jest of the white man or aimed at tourists; either way, they’re generally not of the size or shape that you usually see.” Anthony points out a blackand-white striped Koshare clown figure, who’s sitting down, maybe resting. In front of him is a notched ridge, for a cigarette. “This,” says Anthony, “would never have been used ceremonially.” The Pueblo of San Ildefonso, just north of Santa Fe, is beloved for its striking black-on-black pottery, perhaps most famously exemplified by early 20th-century master potter Maria Martinez. Anthony has a special fondness for Martinez. When he left small-town North Carolina in 1956 and moved West, he immediately fell in love with New Mexico. “I was wandering

downtown in Albuquerque I walked into Wright’s Trading Post and saw a black bowl,” he remembers in his lilting Southern drawl. “I thought it was the prettiest thing I had ever seen.” The price tag, however—$100—was steep, so the shop’s owner offered to let him make payments of $10, spread out over several months. It was a Maria Martinez pot, and after that first purchase, Anthony was hooked on Pueblo art. This show includes what Anthony calls “an extremely rare and unusual plate,”
which Maria made, but that her husband Julian painted. The beautifully decorated saucer features a pair of deer dancers, and would have been made with tourists in mind. “Most of those kinds of items would have been sold on Route 66,” Anthony explains. “The highway permitted artists to set up little card tables, so people driving past could stop and buy directly from them.” Another clay vessel from San Ildefonso, unsigned but dated to the last decade of the 1800s, has traditional elements,

such as a crimped, pie crust-style rim and dual handles. Its decoration, though, is remarkably strange. Two men in Western clothing adorn the belly of the pot. Their expressions are dour, with mustached frowns and down-turned brows. One of them carries a rifle that’s disproportionately, comically small, which he will presumably use to slay the deer on the back side of the pot. Another man in similar dress sits dejectedly near a little basket. With their black hats and cranky faces, it’s humorous—and, as Anthony remarks, “the artist is making fun of non-Natives.” Olla jars or pots were used as grain or water storage for hundreds of years, and sometimes feature embellishments like bear claws or the undulating body of an avanyu, a mystical water serpent. What we much less typically see is a style on view at Adobe Gallery, a hunter’s fetish jar made between 1890 and 1920. According to Anthony, this was a period at Zuni where potters were working with white on red, before largely moving on to different color combinations. Anthony is inclined to think the jar was made strictly for commercial use. “If it is a hunter’s fetish jar, it’s surprising it ever left the Pueblo,” he says, referencing the object’s importance in Pueblo ceremony and culture. Back to Nampeyo for a moment. Though she was prolific, it’s still a very special privilege to see her works in person, and a small jar on view at Unique and Unusual Pueblo Pottery is especially beguiling. It depicts a face in partial 3-D with a protruding nose, dark eyes and a delicately painted squash blossom necklace. Covering a range of styles from the beautiful to the tongue-in-cheek, the exhibition behaves as a kind of fascinating history lesson, one that’s as “unique and unusual” as the show’s pottery itself.

Get savager at: SFReporter.com/savage and—hey, wait a minute. You aren’t disappointed she’s enjoying anal more than you thought she would, are you? Donald Trump has been impeached, and you get to decide the punishment. So what sex toy gets used on him and who gets to use it? I visited Royal Oak, Michigan, for Savage Love Live at the Royal Oak Music Theatre. I didn’t get to all of the questions submitted by the large and tipsy crowd—a crowd that skipped the Stormy Daniels interview on 60 Minutes to spend the evening with me (so honored, you guys!)—so I’m going to race through as many of the unanswered questions as I can in this week’s column. Here we go… Is there a way of breaking my cycle of being totally sexual and into someone for the first six months and then shutting down to the point that I don’t want to be sexual with them at all? What’s wrong with me? Breaking a long-established pattern may require the aid of a therapist who can help you unpack your damage—if, indeed, this is about damage. Because it’s possible this could be the way your libido works; you could be wired for a lifetime of loving, shortterm relationships. While our culture reserves its praise for successful long-term relationships (think of those anniversary gifts that increase in value with each passing year), a short-term relationship can be a success. Everyone get out alive? No one traumatized? Were you able to pivot to friendship? Then you can regard that relationship as a success—or all those relationships as successes. How common a kink is it to enjoy seeing your significant other having sex with someone else? Common enough to have numerous different ways of manifesting itself—swinging, hotwifing, cuckolding, stag-and-vixen play—and an entire porn genre dedicated to it. Cis, female, 33, poly, bi. I bruise easily, am into BDSM, and love to swim in my condo’s shared pool, where there are many seniors. Any advice for hiding bruises or getting over the embarrassment? Don’t assume the senior citizens in the pool are as naive and/or easily shocked as our ageist assumptions would prompt us to believe. Someone who became a senior citizen today—who just turned 65 years old—was 35 in 1988. I happen to know for a fact that people were doing BDSM way, way back in 1988. My husband is a sweet guy who is very good to me. But he is also a gun-toting right-wing conservative, and these days that feels like an insurmountable difference. We have been together for seven years and married for two. No kids yet. I love him—and the thought of leaving him is terrifying—but I honestly don’t know if this is going to work. If you’re afraid to leave him because of those guns, you need to get out. If you’re afraid to leave him because you love him and couldn’t live without him, you might be able to stay. I wouldn’t be able to stay, personally, but you might. Maybe if you make “no political discussions about anything, ever” a condition of remaining in the marriage. When you are entering into something new, how do you differentiate between infatuation and real feelings? Infatuation is a real feeling. Only time will tell if other real but more lasting feelings—like, like like, love, lasting love—will surface when those feelings of infatuation inevitably fade. I can easily have an orgasm with toys but I can’t have one with my boyfriend. What gives? Your boyfriend could give you orgasms if you handed him one of those toys, showed him how you use it on yourself, and then guided his hands the first few times he used it on you. Why does my girlfriend enjoy anal sex more than I thought she would? Because she does. Because anal is hot. Because the clit is a great big organ and most of it’s inside the body and anal penetration may stimulate the backside of your girlfriend’s great big clitoris in a way that’s new and different and highly pleasurable

Trump doesn’t deserve a sex toy. Sex toys are for good boys and girls. All Trump deserves is a lump of the coal he loves so much shoved far enough up his ass to serve as a gag. Is there EVER a healthy way to partake in sensual parties while in a monogamous marriage? Yup. The Dirty Sanchez—actually a thing? Nope. I’m married and finishing my PhD while working fulltime. As a result, I don’t get to spend as much time as I would like with my wonderful husband. I know you’re a workaholic as well. How do you manage to make your husband feel he is getting the attention/ time he deserves? When I’m totally stressed out and working on several projects, and I don’t have the bandwidth to give my husband the attention/time he deserves, I take a moment now and then to reassure him that things will settle down soon and we’ll have more time together. I’ve found he’s most receptive to this message when it’s delivered immediately after I’ve taken a few minutes to blow him. Do you recommend specific prostate massage toys? Besides dick. Forearm. How do you approach people about a three-way without ruining friendships? I think close sexy friends and the-sex-was-greatbut-everything-else-sucked exes make the best “very special guest stars.” But if you’re worried about ruining friendships, well, don’t hit on friends. Hit on strangers. (And remember: A stranger is just a friend you haven’t had a three-way with yet. Or something.) Do you think it’s unwise to give and/or receive gay oral sex without a condom? When we speak of gay oral without a condom— which is almost all of the gay oral out there—we speak of ones that sucked not wisely but too well. Are anxiety-induced orgasms a thing? They must be, because I have them. I’m glad there’s at least one person out there who’s managing to enjoy the Trump era. I’m a 21-year-old, queer, poly, cis girl who recently got into this whole thing with a coworker at my shitty fast-food job. Long story short, we were having a rad time fucking around in the freezer… until he bashed International Women’s Day on Facebook. I stopped getting him off by the frozen meat without an explanation, and I quit my job to go bind books instead. Is it too late to reach out and tell this dude that I dumped him because of his misogynistic online life? And how bitchy can I be? The world would be a better place if (1) women refused to sleep with right-wing assholes (to say nothing of marrying them) and (2) women told rightwing assholes that right-wing assholery is the ultimate cock-block and they have only themselves to blame for it. So it’s not too late, and you should be as bitchy as you can be. Thanks to everyone who came to Savage Love Live in Royal Oak—and to everyone who attended my shows at the Pantages Theatre in Minneapolis and the Barrymore Theatre in Madison over the same weekend.

Bowl Fo F Forr Kids’ Sake 2018 COURTESY KATRINA WILSON
Chances are, if you’re even slightly into the local music scene, you know Karina Wilson. The stalwart violinist/ fiddler has backed up more musicians than we could even begin to list here, and now she’s striking out on her own with an improvisational jazz-esque trio at Tonic this Friday (9:30 pm. Free. 103 E Water St., 982-1189). As longtime fans of Wilson, we had to get the lowdown. (Alex De Vore) So, this is your own thing, right? Yeah, I guess so. It’s an improvisational trio. Nothing is prepared beforehand. The first time was with Cyrus Campbell and Mikey Chavez, this time with Casey Anderson and Trevor Bahnson. Trevor is back in town and we wanted to play a gig; I’d been offered this date and didn’t have anything lined up for it. I love playing with Trevor and Casey, and it’s something out of the ordinary to play with Trevor when he’s not playing his own stuff. I’ve gotten together twice with these guys; we haven’t played together as a trio, but you need a little bit of background to be able to know what they do.

Can you give us an idea of what it’ll sound like? Casey comes from a really impressive jazz background, I come from a pretty deep folk background and Trevor … I don’t really know what Trevor’s background is. But it’ll have these jazz flavors in it, fiddle stuff and jazz riffs, Casey is doing experimental percussion on his bass. It falls in the realm of jazz, but that seems like a really loose term. Does this mean we’ll see more of you, and does playing not as backup bring other challenges? I think so. I’ve got a little trio going, I’ve got some other projects in the works. I’ve got a fiddler coming up from Texas this summer named KeyReel Raskolenko and we’ll be doing duets. I have a bandstand show this year. It’s way more responsibility. I have to take responsibility for my own choices now, figure out what I want to represent. There’s a whole other set of complications when you’re trying to be a bandleader, too; like trying to get people to play as in-depth as you want them to without telling them what to do. In my opinion, why would you hire somebody if you don’t want them to play how they already play?

ALL HAIL LA REINA BY MARY FRANCIS CHEESEMAN a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
A
n underground revolution of sorts has been taking place at the El Rey Inn, located in Midtown, right on Cerrillos Road. The hotel has been a local institution for over 80 years, but in 2016 it was sold to Behringer, a real estate company from Texas. Now it has changed hands again, with the current design and logistical changes spearheaded by husband and wife partners Jay and Alison Carroll. Hailing from Joshua Tree, California, the couple has made the pilgrimage to Santa Fe many times over the years, and their appreciation for the city has majorly impacted their vision for the El Rey. “I’ve been coming to Santa Fe for almost two decades and it’s taken me a long time to navigate,” Jay Carroll says. “I want the hotel to be a gathering place for locals and travelers alike, to attract the best the region has to offer.” While the Carrolls are committed to preserving the vintage vibe of the hotel, the most drastic change has been the complete makeover of what was once a breakfast room into a full bar. The space has been dubbed La Reina (the queen), meant to complement the royal implications of the El Rey. As a further complement, the staff is made up entirely of women. Bar manager Laurel Hunziker said that it happened organically, but she appreciates the chance to provide more opportunity to talented women in the restaurant industry. “After all, it is called La Reina,” Hunziker says with a grin. “We are excited to be creating a safe and sup-

The menu was developed by Alison softly neutral wood furniture and white walls painted with abstract murals by Los Carroll, and she aimed for it to be considerably less expensive than the Angeles-based artist John Zabawa. “I have a fascination with the era of downtown bar scene. “The pricing is the countercultural art scene in New really democratic,” she maintains. “We Mexico,” Jay says. “The Abiquiú House, want the look and feel of a local bar Georgia O’Keeffe’s art, Alexander Gi- that just happens to be in a hotel.” The rard’s work on The Compound—we want- signature cocktails are clearly crafted to ed to emulate that in a fresh, unique way.” highlight the smoky earthiness of mezcal Zabawa has also scattered small, clev- and the alluring spectrum of flavors er embellishments painted almost randomly in hidden corners.

There are plans to hold artist receptions in the bar and showcase work from local craftspeople by supplying all the hotel decorations in the rooms and lobby from local sources. But it was hard for me to spot all the secret artwork when I attended the soft opening party last Saturday, as the bar was packed to the rafters with party-goers.

Beers start at $4, cocktails run $9 to $12, and wines are
present in tequila, with each selection featuring one or both as the main ingredient. My favorite was the La Reina ($12), which features Illegal brand mezcal and Casamigos reposado tequila mixed with agua de jamaica and Ancho Reyes chile liqueur. As an herbalist by trade, Hunziker says she appreciates the touch. “Jamaica has a similar flavor profile to citrus; it’s less expected and more interesting,” she explains. “And it has medicinal benefits and implications, as well as the mezcal, which is traditionally and culturally seen as a holistic and sacred beverage—I think that should be emphasized in cocktail culture more.” Further changes are afoot at the El Rey—all of them positive, some of them wildly offbeat and fun. In terms of food, the hotel’s restaurant is not yet up and running, though the Carrolls hope to offset this with food trucks on weekends. None have been confirmed yet. The hotel itself will also reportedly revert back to its original name, El Rey Court. Meanwhile, the pool is being remodeled, and by June, the Carrolls plan to revive the Pool Club that was once a featured program for locals to enjoy. This will involve access to music, drinks and pool privileges, naturally. Regardless, as it stands, La Reina is set to be one of the most enjoyable additions to the various cocktail, art and food cultures of Santa Fe.

Isle of Dogs Review
BEST MOVIE EVER

Wes Anderson’s shtick can come across as cutesy or far too awash in pastel precociousness. However, his stop-motion features—such as 2009’s Fantastic Mr. Fox—don’t succumb to this problem, at least not in the same ways. Cue Isle of Dogs, Anderson’s newest animated effort and one of the most clever and entertaining films of the year. In the not-too-distant future, the Japanese city of Megasaki is overrun with dog flu, an affliction that has made its way to the vast majority of canines, which results in the mayor decreeing every last one be sent to Trash Island, an offshore trash dumping ground otherwise lost to natural disasters. Most of the city’s denizens have been brainwashed by propaganda, save the idealistic students of a local high school’s newspaper and the mayor’s young nephew Atari (Koyu Rankin), who sets off in search of his own dog Spots who was marooned on the island some months ago. There, formerly domesticated dogs, show dogs, stray dogs and mutts eke out a bleak existence, fighting over trash scraps and contaminated water, all while pining for their former lives and loves. Favorite meals are remembered, cushy living situations are recounted and the desperately formed packs observe primitive democracies, un-

able to choose a singular alpha. Perhaps the greatest moment of Isle of Dogs comes with the realization that the dogs are far more human than those who’ve placed them on Trash Island. Stellar voice work from Ed Norton, Jeff Goldblum, Bill Murray and Bob Balaban truly sells the concept, but Bryan Cranston as Chief is untouchable. Cranston’s ability to sell proud-yet-broken with just his voice speaks volumes about his acting skills, though the design of the dogs is also brilliant, right down to the way their fur blows in the wind. Trash Island itself is smartly designed, conveying utter loneliness despite a population that consistently reveals itself across varying locales such as an abandoned amusement park, an overgrown golf course and the barren coast. Only the dogs speak English and, other than a few scenes with interpreters, the Japanese dia-
logue is not subtitled. This is a genius move, as we can use context to derive meaning without being led by the hand and it preserves the dogs as the story’s true heroes. We fall in love with Cranston’s Chief and root tirelessly for Atari, all while culturally impactful and tactfully represented moments highlight Japan’s art, food and daily life with subtlety and grace. It might be too soon to say this is the best film of the year, but Isle of Dogs is a strong contender and should not be missed under any circumstances.

+ LOOKS SOOOO COOL; EXCITING - WHY THEY GOTTA PIGEON-HOLE NERDS LIKE THAT?!
For nerds, it’s going to be hard to not feel personally attacked, capitalized upon or made fun of by the next-level pandering at play in Spielberg’s Ready Player One, adapted from the Ernest Cline novel of the same name. Somehow, though, among the literally countless Easter eggs and cutesy reminders of the nerd properties loved by children and (as the film beats us over the head with) supposedly stunted adults, lies one of the finest uses of CGI in modern film bogged down by a simplistic paint-by-numbers story about how love was the real treasure the whole time. In futuristic Ohio—which is somehow the most advanced place on the planet— young Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan, X-Men Apocalypse) lives out his Charlie Bucket-esque existence by escaping into the OASIS, a bonkers virtual reality world created by a couple of nerds who are, respectively, dead and missing. One such nerd (the dead one) announced there was a secret game within the game upon his death, the winner of which would take over the OASIS and be so totally super-rich it’s nuts. Thus, Wade—who goes by Parzival online—and

times. Relentlessly. Sheridan is A-OK as the young Wade though, since we mostly spend time with his anime-like avatar, we never really get a feel for him. Same goes for the clan (a gaming term; Google it) he reluctantly joins, which includes flat performances from no-name kids and Master of None star/scribe Lena Waithe. No matter, though, since their dialogue is generally a bunch of pap about how hard their lives have been and/or references to nerd stuff. Wade’s love interest, Art3mis (Olivia Cooke, Bates Motel), is just fine as well, though we’ll hand it to her for being a mostly strong character with clear-cut motivations of her own … y’know, outside of Wade. Yes, Ready Player One looks incredible, and yes, those of a certain age will feel that pang of nostalgia when they see characters from Gundam, Godzilla, Halo, Overwatch or The Iron Giant doing crazy crap to hit songs of the 1980s while toys like Madballs or things like Monty Python’s Holy Hand Grenade pop up. But when certain nerds are diluted into clumsy-with-women, gaming-obsessed and antisocial weirdos who shit on their friends for having dared to miss out on any pop culture reference whatsoever, one can’t help but feel Cline, and by extension, Spielberg, have a fairly narrow, mainstream view of the culture.

+ ZOEY DEUTCH; FUNNY/CREEPY - JOEY MORGAN IS MEH
Director/writer Max Winkler makes the leap from television programs like the strangely addictive Crazy Ex-Girlfriend with Flower, a semi-adorable indie flick that examines the sometimes unbelievable antics of a sexually liberated teen girl who uses the power of blowjobs to exploit money from creepy dudes who should sincerely know better. Erica (Zoe Deutch, The Disaster Artist) and her friends use said blowjob plan to raise cash for her incarcerated father’s bail, but when her soon-to-be stepbrother Luke (Joey Morgan, Compadres) gets out of rehab where, we learn, he was placed for an addiction spawned by alleged sexual abuse, Erica’s misguided thirst for scamming skeezy creeps pushes the pair into a situation well beyond their control. Deutch is a revelation, all at once channeling a preternatural ability for embodying a confident woman with a skewed idea of feminism and naive youngster who can’t admit she doesn’t have all the answers. Morgan, on the other hand, struggles to keep up, and their chemistry feels off. Perhaps we’re supposed to see a modern day Bonnie and Clyde, but we simply don’t. All the same, at the heart of each character lies a flawed desire to do good. Scott is also charming in his

own way, and it’s kind of nice to see him shed his neurotic nice guy typecasting for that of undercover scumbag. But do the ends justify the means? Rarely. And Flower does falter in making us believe any of Erica and Luke’s actions are warranted. Brashness may be the curse of the teenager, but Erica is presented as too-smart-for-her-owngood, a character trait that all but flies out the window thanks to to her impulsiveness. The last act wraps rather quickly, though we’ll hand it to Winkler and crew for eschewing the tidy happy ending for something a bit more realistic. Either way, Deutch is the draw here, and we expect great things from her in the future. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts Violet Crown, R, 90 min. TOMB RAIDER

Madeleine L’Engle’s 1962 children’s novel, A Wrinkle in Time, was rejected by more than 25 publishers before becoming an award-winning classic story about quantum physics, the danger of conformity and the power of love. Though geared at young readers, the story’s nuanced mesh of science, female heroism and, yes, Christian ideology nudged its appeal to adults as well. The story’s protagonist, 13-year-old Meg

Veep creator Armando Iannucci has certainly proven his affinity for dark and savvy political humor, but whereas his HBO program does occasionally provide redemptive moments for its seemingly heartless characters, his new feature film, The Death of Stalin—which may just be one of the darkest comedies ever made—doesn’t even bother. We join the top brass of Russia circa 1953, a time when comrade Stalin’s lust for power made him paranoid and kill lists were the nightly norm. Here, his top men work hard at assuaging the man, staying up too late watching cowboy movies and enlisting their wives as sounding boards for what drunken banter plays well with their fearful leader. But when Stalin takes ill and the likes of Kruschev (Steve Buscemi), Malenkov (Jeffrey Tambor) and Beria (Simon Russell Beale) enter a power vacuum, hilarity and all hell break loose, making for some of the most cringe-worthy and excellently funny writing we’ve ever seen. Stalin ultimately proves a wild and capable farce, with powerful and self-absorbed yet pitiful and ridiculous men each attempting to grasp power before their colleagues. An early sequence that finds various Russian ministers forced to admit they’ve either imprisoned or killed their country’s best doctors, thereby making suitable aid for Stalin impossible, is particularly hysterical as each flounders to justify the absurd shape of things. Buscemi shines particularly in these moments, a bit of a toad whose story we all (of course) know, but a terrified boob grasping for self-preservation. Tambor wows as well, taking a more idiotic yet soft tack as Stalin’s deputy who maybe just wanted to fly under the radar but obviously can’t anymore. And the madness grows and twists until we hate pretty much everyone even as we might understand how they created such dire straits for themselves. All the while, Iannucci’s keen sensibilities throttle the movie forward, rarely taking a beat and relentlessly bringing the laughs. Will you feel guilty for some of the things you find funny? Absolutely. But so enjoyably you won’t much care. Do not miss this movie. (ADV) Center for Contemporary Arts, R, 107 min.
in search of answers about the afterlife, or more specifically, an ancient Japanese queen who was sent to an uncharted island to die because she was evil and stuff. Seven years is just long enough for Lara to quit all the daydreamin’ and take over the family company and fortune. Ruh-roh, though, because she begins uncovering clues to her father’s actual life, that of an amateur archaeology enthusiast who clearly didn’t love her as much as he claimed. Lara takes off looking for answers, is swept up in a whole bunch of tomb raiding and ledge-leaping and secret society nonsense and, all the while, learns a thing or two about what kind of Croft she really is. Those who played either of the recent Tomb Raider reboot games from developer Crystal Dynamics will find a mishmash of their narrative elements wrapped up in a package that’s far more akin to a gaming experience than actual film. That’s not a bad thing per se, but as far as genre movies like these go, a new identity could have been interesting. Director Roar Uthaug (whom you don’t know, we promise) even throws in subtle nods to gaming mechanics, such as how Lara climbs on shit, her love of the bow and arrow and ridiculous ancient puzzles that surely could never have been created by anyone without an advanced engineering degree. Indiana Jones this ain’t, especially in its accelerated pacing, faceless villain Mathias (a reference to the villain from the 2013 video game, though far less dimensional despite actor Walton Goggins’ best attempts) and painful tries at comic relief, all of which fall flat. Even worse is having to watch master actors like Derek Jacobi (I, Claudius) sit on the sidelines with roles so meaningless they make Denholm Elliott in Last Crusade look like a commanding and vital performance. Whatever.

Newcomer Zoey Deutch (left) makes Flower worth watching.
1:50, 4:40, 7:30 Murry (Storm Reid, 12 Years a Slave), is an angry outcast suffering from the loss of her father (Chris Pine of Star Trek fame), a scientist who, along with his fellow scientist wife (Beauty and the Beast’s Gugu Mbatha-Raw), has learned to “wrinkle” time and travel the universe and has been captured by the pervasive evil that seeks to turn all beings away from the light. Meg, her prodigy little brother Charles Wallace (Deric McCabe) and new friend Calvin O’Keefe (Levi Miller, Pan) set out to rescue him. Director Ava DuVernay’s adaptation falls unsurprisingly short in capturing the nuance of L’Engle’s novel, relying frequently on baffling amounts of glitter and eyeshadow to convey magic and angry trees to connote evil. The trio of magical beings, Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who and Mrs. Which (Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling and Oprah Winfrey, respectively) appear here with particular Disney theme-park camp, although Winfrey’s bone-deep ability to convey empathy makes for some of the film’s most touching moments. That empathy is primarily directed to Meg, played by Reid with hints of the fierceness and nuance that emblematized the original book. The young characters’ rescue mission takes them to Camazotz, a place where evil, fear and conformity have enslaved inhabitants. The film’s greatest adaptive decision was its diverse casting, which reinforces L’Engle’s original message about the importance of individual spirit and experience in the fight between good and evil.

+ NOT BORING, PER SE … - … BUT NOT SO GREAT
ered moments later render said spy thing moot. Not to worry, though, because lukewarm performances are everywhere, from Joel Edgerton (from the Netflix original movie Bright, which we still say should have been called Lieutenant Goblin) as the forgettable CIA agent, Matthias Schoenaerts (The Danish Girl) as the cruel uncle, Charlotte Rampling (Assassin’s Creed) as the heartless spy school headmistress, and Jeremy Irons as … well, he really only ever does Jeremy Irons. All the while, Lawrence’s silly stab at a Russian accent undermines what was an already painfully too-serious performance, and Mary-Louise Parker’s brief turn as an unscrupulous chief of staff for a US senator feels like one of the most low-stakes and overblown setups in the history of spy film. Still, Red Sparrow does manage to not overstay its welcome (even with a running time in excess of two hours) so long as one understands that it should by no means be taken seriously or assumed to be anything other than an escapist means of killing a couple hours. If nothing else, scenes of Moscow, Budapest and Vienna remind us that Europe is pretty beautiful, Russia is pretty bleak and that we can fall back on John le Carré in a pinch.

JEAN COCTEAU CINEMA Setting aside how much we don’t buy Jennifer Lawrence (Mother!) as the Bolshoi’s prima ballerina, it becomes even more absurd when an accident onstage somehow forces her into the spy-packed world of international espionage in Red Sparrow. Lawrence is Dominika, a young woman whose uncle is the minister of, like, shadowy operations or something for Russia. He tricks her into the spycraft game of them vs. America and the search for a mole they believe has infiltrated their government. But why would she just do this? So she can care for her mother, who ails from some nameless sickness, obviously. Apparently in Russia, if you can’t make the big bucks as a ballerina, you have to become a seductive spy. Chyort! What follows is a series of confusing double-crosses, brutal torture scenes and wildly un-sexy sex rendezvous. Pointless characters pop up regularly and scenes wherein somebody does a sneaky spy thing only for it to be discov-

She loves to wrestle with her sister & will start playing with her toys so long as no one is around. If she gets scared she’ll hide behind her sister whom she’s very bonded to.

MIND BODY SPIRIT ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny
Week of April 4th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Eighty-three-year-old author Harlan Ellison has had a long and successful career. In the course of publishing hundreds of literary works in seven different genres, he has won numerous awards. But when he was in his thirties, there was an interruption in the upward arc of his career. The film production company Walt Disney Studios hired him as a writer. During his first day on the job, Roy Disney overheard Ellison joking with a co-worker about using Disney characters in an animated pornographic movie. Ellison was fired on the spot. I am by no means predicting a comparable event in your life, Aries. On the contrary. By giving you this heads-up, I’m hoping you’ll be scrupulous and adroit in how you act in the early stages of a new project — so scrupulous and adroit that you will sail on to the next stages.
to offer. And yet your stress levels also seem to be increasing. Why is that? Do you assume that having more power requires you to endure higher tension? Do you unconsciously believe that being more worried is the price of being more responsible? If so, banish that nonsense. The truth is this: The best way to manage your growing clout is to relax into it. The best way to express your growing clout is to relax into it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Are you an evolving Taurus or an unevolving Taurus? Are you an aspiring master of gradual, incremental progress or a complacent excuse-maker who secretly welcomes inertia? Will the theme of your next social media post be “The Smart Art of Compromise” or “The Stingy Glory of Stubbornness”? I’m hoping you will opt for the former rather than the latter in each of the three choices I just offered. Your behavior in the coming weeks will be pivotal in your long-term ability to animate your highest self and avoid lapsing into your mediocre self.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The immediate future will challenge you to revisit several fundamental Scorpio struggles. For best results, welcome these seeming intrusions as blessings and opportunities, and follow these guidelines: 1. Your control over external circumstances will increase in direct proportion to your control over your inner demons. 2. Your ability to do what you want will thrive to the degree that you stop focusing on what you don’t want. 3. Your skill at regulating and triumphing over chaos will be invincible if you’re not engrossed in blaming others.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I’m about to say things that sound extraordinary. And it’s possible that they are in fact a bit overblown. But even if that’s the case, I trust that there is a core of truth in them. So rejoice in their oracular radiance. First, if you have been hoping for a miracle cure, the next four weeks will be a time when you’re more likely than usual to find it or generate it. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you fly in a passenger jet Second, if you have fantasized about getting help to address a seemingly irremediable problem, asking from New York to London, the trip usually takes more aggressively for that help now will lead to at least a parthan six hours. But on January 8, 2015, a powerful jet stream surging across the North Atlantic reduced that tial fix. Third, if you have wondered whether you could ever retrieve a lost or missing part of your soul, the odds time significantly. With the wind’s extra push, several flights completed the trip in five hours and 20 minutes. are more in your favor than they’ve been in a long time. I suspect you’ll have comparable assistance in the CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The French government course of your upcoming journeys and projects, defines books as an “essential good,” along with water, Gemini. You’ll feel like the wind is at your back. bread, and electricity. Would you add anything to that list of life’s basics? Companionship? Stories? Deep sleep?
