A backfire lit to bolster a fire break helped ensure the buildings, vineyards and orchards on the property went unscathed. He said Sept. 20 that the efforts had been successful. Alan and Sandra Silvestri said their property and their staff were also spared. “It’s been a very long weekend for everyone in Carmel Valley and Cachagua Valley who was directly impacted by the Tassajara Fire,” they said, going on to “the firemen, the air and helicopter support, our fellow citizens and neighbors, the police and sheriff’s department, and most of all Marshall Moranda who held down our fort during this fire.” “We send our condolences to everyone who lost in this terrible fire,” they continued. “God bless all the heroes and heroines who stepped up.” www.carmelpinecone.com ■ Taps, Apps & Touchdowns Knuckles Sports Bar in the Hyatt Regency Monterey is a good spot to watch football, with its big screens, beers on tap and dependable food.

Hunt has been teaching at Stanford University for two decades and earned his Ph.D. at the Institute of Archaeology at University College London. He is a national lecturer for the Archaeological Institute of America and frequently appears on PBS, Nova, National Geographic and the History Channel. He has taught postgraduate courses on the history of wine, as well as lectured at wineries and related venues around the world, and has published more than 100 articles on global wine history and mythology. Oh, and he’s also written a dozen books, traveled through five continents and is a research associate in “archeoethnobotany” at the Institute for EthnoMedicine.

The evening will artfully combine cuisine and craft, with several talented local chefs providing the food, and local artisans bringing their creations. Those signed on for the culinary side of the equation include Yulanda Santos of Sierra Mar at the Post Ranch Inn, Ron Mendoza of Aubergine at L’Auberge Carmel, and Ben Spungin of Coastal Luxury Management and Restaurant 1833. These three highly skilled pastry chefs have collaborated for YAC fundraisers in the past, and no doubt they will bring the same ingenuity to this event. Providing wine will be Pierce Ranch Vineyards and Silvestri Vineyards, while Lilify, Patricia Giffen Design, Foxy Couture, Marcia Perry, Cat’s Meow, Tessuti Zoo, Chloe Wilson and Bernard Trainor will bring the art. Other participants include Maddox Haberdasher as master of ceremonies, Brian Bode of Oya Salon as master of hair and makeup, and YACsters and mentors as creators of the Metaphorphic miniatures guests will get to enjoy. Tickets are $100 each and are available at yacstudios.org. Metamorphic will be a fundraiser for YAC, a nonprofit, after-school art studio and mentorship program for highschool and college artists — “brilliant and struggling, confident and fringe, multi-ethnic, multi-tempered, and over 40 percent financially challenged. They learn art, job, and life skills, and gain a healthy dose of selfesteem and gratitude along the way.” B ollywo Masala o O o rchestra d and Dancers of India Thursday, October 8 at 8PM Experience the rich world of music, dance, dynamic rhythm, and spirituality that characterizes India.
