Venoco defers Paredon EIR, cites oil prices
Venoco inc. announced this week that, due to the recent downturn in oil prices, the oil and gas company will defer the start of the environmental review for the proposed Paredon Project. As part of the planning process for Venoco’s application to drill 22 wells from its Dump Road property, the city council had voted to move forward with the preparation of an Environmental impact Report at the Jan. 26 council meeting before Venoco decided to hit the brakes. The cost of completing an Environmental impact Report, including city staff time and the consultant’s fee, is expected to exceed $500,000. “As always, Venoco’s first and foremost priority is to ensure existing operations remain safe and reliable. This has resulted in the necessary slowdown of expenditures required for longer term development or growth plans,” stated a Venoco press release. without the ability to accurately predict when commodity prices will stabilize, Venoco stated that it could not provide a timeframe for a restart of the project EiR. Venoco has eyed drilling into on and offshore oil and gas reserves from its property for more than a decade and had an EiR prepared for the Paredon Project as proposed in 2007. The city has never gotten to the point of officially giving a yes or no vote on the project. The former EIR identified several significant impacts including the slim chance of a blowout from a well, which would be in proximity to the harbor seal rookery. As part of its review of city planning and zoning documents, the council had asked last year for proposals that could potentially alter the land-use options at the Venoco Oil and gas Processing Facility. Ultimately a decision could eliminate Venoco’s ability to drill from its property or lead to tighter regulation. City Community Development Department Director Jackie Campbell said that Venoco could choose to reinstate processing of its application and continue the environmental analysis stage at any time. ––Peter Dugré

Big man off campus
Bill Swing
At a ceremony honoring former Carpinteria Unified School District Superintendent Paul Cordeiro’s decade of service, the Carpinteria High School Letterman’s Club presented the outgoing schools boss with a jacket of his own. The specially appointed jacket was gifted at a campus assembly on Jan. 30. The honorary letterman slid on the jacket that was adorned with the years 2005 and 2015 on the sleeves—his start and end years—and patches on the coat represent 25 league championships, four CIF finalists and two CIF championships won during his tenure. The gift came as a surprise to Cordeiro who started his new job as superintendent of a Newhall district as of Feb. 1.

Slow bike race comes to IBC
“How slow can you go?” Island Brewing Company is asking Carpinterians. To find out who is the slowest of them all, the brewery will hold the first Slow Bike Race on Saturday, Feb. 28 from noon to 4 p.m. Contestants will ride a two-wheeled bicycle over a fixed course, aiming for the longest interval of time. The slowest bike wins the race; if a contestants feet go down, he or she is out. The format will include three divisions: 12 and under, 13 to 17, and 18 and over. The slowest three in each division will then compete for victory, bragging rights and prizes. “This is an event that we’ve wanted to do for a long time,” says founder and owner Paul Wright. “The competition should be fun and fierce across all age groups. Moments of hilarity are pretty much guaranteed.” There will be a $10 entry fee per rider 21 and over and $5 entry for under 21. Proceeds will be used to benefit the Carpinteria Children’s Project to purchase bicycles from Trek Bikes of Ventura, which will also be donating to the event. For more information, call 745-8272

He leaves behind his wife, Dorothy, his daughter Sheelah Smith and her husband Doug Smith, his son Doug McKenzie, his wife Marian McKenzie, and their son Jim’s beloved grandson Ian McKenzie. Jim was the son of John and Ruby McKenzie (Meek), and was born in Motherwell, Scotland on April 19, 1931. The oldest of three boys, he was preceded in passing by his brother John. His surviving youngest brother, Bob, lives in Canada with his wife, Resa, and their children and grandchildren. Jim met his beloved wife, Dorothy, in the British Royal Air Force.

Alan Dee Patchell was born in Texas on July 2, 1956 and moved to California when he was only 3 years old. He graduated from Carpinteria High School and then served in the U.S. Navy sub service. After the Navy, Al went into law enforcement with Santa Barbara S.O. He moved to Madera and worked at the Madera Jail and then Madera Probation Department. He retired December 2008 as Deputy Chief at Madera Juvenile Hall. He was an Elk and former Lion’s Club member. He loved riding his motorcycle. Al will be missed by everyone whose life he touched, whether you knew him as Alan, Al, Patch, Sgt. or the crossing guard at
birthday and celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary just days before Jim’s passing. Jim would have been 84 in April. A senior partner and Consulting Engineer with Archer Spencer Engineering, Jim had a personal specialty in mechanical engineering and a passion for boilers. He did work for UCSB and SB Cottage Hospital, among many other local institutions. Jim had many interests and untold talents. In Scotland as a young man he was a snare drummer in the Dalziel Highland Pipe Band, whose Drum Corp won the Scottish Championship in 1951. He placed sixth in the Scottish world solo drumming competition at age 17, and retained his rhythm and love of music of all types throughout his life. Jim loved mathematics and astronomy. He could build anything and constructed the “Millennium Obelisk,” much admired by his Montecito neighbors. He loved woodcarving, especially Celtic knotwork designs, and was a member of the California Carvers’ Guild. He had a tremendous memory for numbers, songs and poetry. But most of all, he loved, protected and cared for his family. Beloved husband, Daddy and Grandpa, we will miss you terribly, but the things you taught us, our memories of you, and your presence will be with us always. Bless you on your journey, dearest one… we love you, and leave you in God’s hands.

She later married Leroy “Mac” McIntyre, who passed in 1989. Tommie loved having people around. When working at Port Hueneme, she befriended many homesick Navy Sea Bees; it was always an adventure visiting her home. She accepted everyone from all walks of life. Her later years were spent in Palm Desert with her best friend, Marilyn Thayer. Tommie is survived by Barbara Ann and Paula Lynn, along with Chris, Lisa, Woody, Vicki, Glen and many other friends. Even when her body failed her, she kept her indomitable spirit. We will miss her cocktail hour and sharp wit. Ta ta, Mom.

There is an “opt-out” box that I believe is abused. If an “anti-vaxxer” contracts the measles and carries it to a school with less than 95 percent vaccinated students, everyone they contact is at risk, vaccinated or not.

City needs dog park
I have lived in Carpinteria far many years and I feel very blessed to be here. One thing missing is a dog park where we could let our furry friends socialize. It doesn’t have to be huge, just an area to run free; fenced would be great. I’m sure people would be more than willing to pay a small amount for upkeep. I know there are other Carpinterians that feel the same way. I hope we can find a way to make this happen.

Second that emotion
Regarding “Hollywood’s War,” CVN Jan. 29: Bravo and many kudos for your input on the movie “American Sniper.” If we had many more clear thinking Americans like you, who could see how our country is disintegrating before our very eyes, we still might have a fighting chance before Obama drags us all the way down to another third world country.
Steve Urbanovich Burbank
We used to build things
In response to “The Keystone hoax,” CVN, Jan. 29: Mike Millan wrote the Keystone XL pipeline would provide only 6,000 “temporary construction” jobs for two years. He left out 9,000 good paying jobs for welders, mechanics, electricians, pipefitters, heavy equipment operators, safety coordinators and other skilled workers who could be put to work immediately. He also left out the 42,000 jobs that the project would support directly and indirectly, nationwide (stats from U.S. State Department’s Final Environmental Impact Statement). He also left out all of government jobs, which are supported by taxes paid by working corporations and working Americans. If we listened to Millan, neither the Transcontinental railroad, nor the interstate highway system nor the Panama Canal would ever have been built, because those jobs were temporary and therefore not worth doing. Roads, bridges, canals, dams, schools, grocery stores, homes, ships, airplanes, none of these things would ever be built because that work is only temporary. Millan called the Keystone project a “handout.” My father worked his entire life in construction. He built things. He paid his bills, purchased a home, provided food, clothes, health care and education for our family of four; and provided a pension that took care of him and my mother when he grew too old to work. And he paid taxes, all kinds of taxes, every day for the more than 50 years he worked; all paid with his ”temporary” jobs that Mr.
Millan thinks are “handouts.” Keystone is the most advanced oil pipeline operation in North America. It will not only bring essential infrastructure to North American oil producers, but it will also provide jobs and help with long-term energy independence. What happened to us? We used to be proud to build things that made peoples’ lives better.

Opting out of vaccinations puts public at risk
I have lived in Carpinteria almost my entire life and am currently raising my own young children here. Over the past few weeks I have heard about the many cases of pertussis and measles that have become the topic of conversation throughout Southern California—most specifically among those of us with young children. As the outbreak spreads to Santa Barbara County, parents want to know if everything has been done to ensure schools are as safe as possible. I have learned that campuses without herd/community immunity (meaning less than 95 percent of students are vaccinated) are campuses where even the vaccinated children as well as their infant siblings may be at risk. The statistics are on the California Department of Public Health website. While some schools in Carpinteria are above 95 percent, there are some that aren’t. This includes a campus shared by two different schools. The state of California mandates that every child be immunized prior to enrolling into school. However, there is an “opt-out” box that I believe is abused. If an “anti-vaxxer” contracts the measles and carries it to a school with less than 95 percent vaccinated students, everyone they contact is at risk, vaccinated or not. A good example of this outcome is the recent Disneyland outbreak that continues to grow. My overall concern isn’t just for my own children. There are also those that are considered high risk such as the elderly, children under 2, and those who have a medical condition that compromises their immune system. I would question the parents who choose not to vaccinate their children, knowingly putting others at risk. If I made that choice, I would be irresponsible, negligent and selfish. Ultimately, choosing not to vaccinate children is poor parental choice that is now dictating our community’s health.

For months Summerlanders have been anxiously waiting and watching the restored Big Yellow House for signs of occupation. This Saturday, the historic old house will see Evolation Yoga open for business— and stretching, fitness, meditation and other health-enhancing practices. Evolation occupies the building’s large upper floor, with the best views. The yoga studio offers a suitably large number and range of classes. Flow, Hot, Deep, Warm and Still are some of the choices yoga practitioners can opt for. FYI, hot yoga is done at 105 degrees. It’s supposed to leave you detoxified and refreshed. Also relaxed, I imagine. That temp should loosen up the joints of the stiffest among us. Up to nine different classes are offered each day with 15 different instructors. I’m considering the warm yoga, only 90 degrees, or the flow, which is offered at room temperature. All the classes are supposed to be suitable for beginners as well as seasoned practitioners. To learn more, check their website evolationyogasb.com.

Oh Holy St. Jude, apostle and Martyr, great in virtue and rich in Miracles, near kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful special patron in time of need, to you do I have recourse from the depth of my heart and humbly beg you to whom God has given such great powers, to come to my assistance.

Rita Villa, owner of the women’s boutique Bonita, is jumping across the street to open a second store, Bonita Beach. The new shop has landed in the little Victorian formerly occupied by the Amelia Jane children’s store. Villa plans to put the Victorian’s small rooms to good use, employing one of them as a “den for men” called Toro. Predictably, it will stock an array of masculine, beach-oriented goods including hats, shoes, underwear, ties (ties?), socks and swim trunks. Villa says that the emphasis of her new store will be “unisex,” carrying beach cover-ups, swimwear, beachy cotton essentials, sandals, jewelry, beach towels and more.

restaurant by the same name in Laurel Canyon. Pace’s emphasis is on fresh, healthy, locally sourced, gourmet food with an Italian slant. The restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. Pace’s website advertises live jazz on Monday nights. We can hope for a little of that in Summerland. Also take-out picnic packs that include luscious things like cedarwood grilled chicken and a salad of salmon, white beans, calamata olives and sungold tomatoes. Chef Gendel should know that we have a great little park in Summerland, the perfect al fresco spot for indulging in a tasty picnic lunch. Check out the Laurel Canyon Pace restaurant out at peaceinthecanyon.com With all this activity at the Big Yellow, you have to wonder how the infamous little ghost Hector, reputed to haunt the wine cellar, is faring. Maybe it’s driven him right out of his niche. Or maybe he’s just waiting for the crowds to arrive.

downtown, the monument, bearing the names of local soldiers lost in the war, stood front and center. Dismayed by the monument’s condition, Bob recruited philanthropist Pierre Clayssens to fund moving it to the prominent place it deserved. A new flagpole was constructed to top the memorial, and a flag now flies from it day and night. On Jan. 24, a crowd of 20 or more, including local firefighters, gathered to raise a crisp new flag atop the pole and honor the man who moved a monument. Bob’s friend, Summerland local Mike Lomanaco, led the effort to clear a space in Memorial Park, round up donations of materials, secure the brass plaque and affix it to just the right stone. The plaque’s inscription seems perfectly suited to Bob Duncan, friend of Summerland, whom we will all remember for his good deeds. The Summerland Citizens Association is in constant need of funds for flag upkeep and replacement. Your donation made out to the SCA can help keep the flag flying (P.O. Box 508, Summerland, CA 93067). One good thing: The minus tides of January, the beach so wide you felt like you were walking on the ocean’s floor.

Bob Duncan was such a fixture in town we regarded him as an honorary Summerlander. The object of his attention, even his affection, was our World War I memorial and the flag waving above it. He was the mind behind the planting of that monument in the center of town, and he tended it carefully. Bob died in January a year ago, and on the first anniversary of his passing, Summerland’s Memorial Park got a new plaque, one dedicated to Bob. Bob was a board director for the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire District, a former marine, a Civil War wonk and an all-around good guy. Out riding his bicycle one day he spied the nearly forgotten memorial hidden by a cypress tree below the freeway. In the days before the freeway buried Summerland’s old

Dr. Ali Javanbakht
DUGRÉ
Dr. Ali hangs up “For the health of it” hat BY PETER DUGRÉ
A patient at the Carpinteria Sansum Clinic specifically requested that she be examined by Dr. Ali Javanbakht when she fell ill a few years ago. Part way through the visit, she turned to Javanbakht and said, “You’re not very funny.” After reading years of his entertaining and educational columns in Coastal View News, the patient expected Javanbakht to be goofier, a Patch Adams sort of healer. Though his bedside manner was too serious for the patient that day, Javanbakht was never short on material and quirks in his bimonthly “For the health of it” column between 2004 and 2014. Javanbakht had always wanted to cut through the jargon and technicality of medical information and present valuable advice in accessible ways for laypeople. “I can remember in medical school the lectures on human development or biochemistry were agonizingly boring,” he said. Add to that chronically fatigued medical students and the dimmed lecture halls after lunch and those dull, technical educational sessions were traumatizing snoozers for Javanbakht. “I got to be frustrated and thought, ‘It doesn’t have to be this way.’” Topics for the columns came from office visits or from media reports, always from a place where Javanbakht wished to dissolve misconceptions and assuage fears perpetuated by sensationalistic media reports. In one instance, the connection between anti-depressants and teen suicides left parents confused about how to treat the mental health of their children. Javanbakht pointed out that statistically the issue was being blown way out of proportion. A couple of Javanbakht’s favorite columns over the years were on the topics of herpes and gastroenteritis (inflammation that causes what’s commonly referred to as the stomach flu). The gastroenteritis column was told from the perspective of the stomach, and the herpes column, a poetic piece, was titled “Herpes 1 and Herpes 2” and was inspired by Dr. Seuss. The column opened: “The spots had come out. The pain had begun. Oh, how they burned. Something had to be done. I went to my doctor. I said, ‘Tell me true.’ What do I have, Herpes 1 or herpes 2? The good doctor said, ‘Tell me what you felt. Was it above the neck, or below the belt?’” And then there’s Javanbakht’s signature line to segue back from the humor and to the medical subject at hand, “But I digress.” For 2014, Coastal View News printed select reruns from the column, and as of 2015, the long run of fun and informative
columns has come to an end. Javanbakht is a busy guy. He is the medical director for the local Sansum and the chair of the Family Medicine Department at Cottage Health System. He also plays soccer twice a week, coaches his two children, plays drums and is part of an improv group in Santa Barbara. His need to unpack esoteric topics for the layperson is still satisfied. Javanbakht comes up with material for instructional videos on electronic medical system software for Sansum Clinic. The videos, entitled “Ali’s Weekly Wave Tip,” break down sometimes frustratingly user-unfriendly software with his typical flare for humor. Think Betty Boop as a patient and the dry wit of trying to enter her medical information into an obstinate electronic database. Javanbakht had watched the videos offered with the software. “My eyes glazed over after 30 seconds,” he said. Javanbakht chose to retire “For the health of it” before it became a chore and its quality suffered. Being a part of the community paper allowed the Santa Barbara resident to be more connected to the city where he works. He said he began to realize that everyone who came into the clinic knew one another. They were family or neighbors or friends. “I’m convinced there are five families in Carpinteria that everyone’s related to either by blood or marriage,” he joked of the small town that he has come to know and love. Javanbakht will still be at the Sansum Clinic, just don’t hop on his examination table expecting him to put on a performance.

Taking the bait
A two-person cigarette swiping team successfully scammed a gas station attendant on Carpinteria Avenue on Jan. 26 at about 2 p.m. One man, who the clerk estimated to be around 18 years old, entered the station and asked for assistance with the electric air pump outside to fill his bicycle tires. When they exited the station to check on the pump, the clerk realized there was no bicycle. She pointed out the absence of a bike, and the man acted shocked. It must have been stolen, he said. The clerk offered to have a look at surveillance footage to ascertain how the bike was stolen, but the man was reluctant and opted to just leave and not investigate the stolen bike. When the clerk reentered the store, she noticed the cigarette rack was several packs short. She reviewed surveillance that showed a man entering the store in her absence and swiping six packs of smokes. Deputies obtained a copy of the surveillance tape as evidence.
Kicking and screaming
Deputies received a complaint from an Aragon Drive resident about an intoxicated female who was annoying and would not leave the residence on Jan. 27 at about 6 p.m. When deputies swooped in to assess the situation, they found that the unwanted guest, 38, had meandered up the street. When they contacted her, she reeked of alcohol, according the deputy report. Deputies tried to strike up a conversation with her, but she refused to talk, stating she would be mum without the presence of an attorney. The officers informed her that she would be arrested for public intoxication, and she allegedly didn’t take the news well and decided to claw and kick at the officer. According to the officer, she gripped his wrist with her nails and caused an abrasion. She also allegedly attempted to grab the officer’s groin. Officers decided to apply cuffs on her hands and feet, but she proved tough to hogtie. They had to take her to the ground, which caused minor injuries to her knees, according to the report. An officer had to stick a knee into her back
in order to subdue and cuff her. Officers noted that neighbors came out to check on the commotion but only caught the end when the officers were controlling the situation, not being lashed out at. Officers found an open bottle of tequila in the woman’s purse upon arresting her and tacked on an open container in public charge to her public intoxication and battery on an officer charges.

Super Bowl transfixes local football fans PhotoS by Antony MArchiAndo Coastal View News photographer Antony Marchiando captured the excitement buzzing through Carpinteria watering holes on super Sunday, Feb. 1. Scores of locals elbowed up to watch NFL heavyweights the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks duke it out for the World Championship. Some had deflated spirits when New England’s Malcolm Butler swiped the game-deciding interception with 20 seconds left in the 28-24 Patriots’ victory and others relished the big moment that had New England on the winner’s podium for the first time in a decade.

Water polo reaching its goals Seniors on the Carpinteria High School girls water polo team can check the Nordhoff High School and Malibu High School pools off their list of places they have won games. The players had gone through their varsity careers without ever having won in those pools before trips in January were successful and the wins have continued to mount for the Warriors, who have dropped only a single Tri-Valley League match. Coach Lance Hoffman points to the 2-meter play of Brenda Rodriguez for much of the team’s success. The junior had amassed 64 goals before the end of January, a clip of five per game. “She’s having a monster year,” said Hoffman, a first year coach. He played high school water polo at Santa Ynez and college ball at Whittier. The Warriors also can bank on the steady play of seniors Allison Wagner, Sierra Garibay and Maya Grant. When the Warriors are able to get into their set offense and limit the opposition’s counter attacks, they have been unbeatable. Foothill Tech, a newcomer to TriValley League, is responsible for the Warriors’ lone setback, a 17-11 loss that Hoffman is determined to avenge. Foothill is a new school and drew its players from both Buena and Ventura high schools, where they had competed against upper-division schools. Foothill has so far been unbeatable in TVL, but Hoffman said the Warriors started playing with confidence in the second half of that loss and could upset the Dragons if they put four quarters of quality water polo together. Hoffman said that when opposing teams start to zero in on Rodriguez, junior Kimmy Methmann shifts down in front of the net along with Rodriguez. “One will always be open. Those two girls overpower everyone,” Hoffman said. Goalie Nicole Poulos, a sophomore, has developed into a reliable shot blocker

Brenda Rodriguez has scored at a clip of five goals a game for Warrior girls water polo this season. over the course of the season, Hoffman said. “She’s having a really strong year. Water polo is a game of mental toughness, and she’s really coming along.” Her game has taken on new dimensions as she gains confidence to move away from the goal and grab steals. Wagner and Garibay have racked up the assists shuttling the ball inside to Rodriguez and Methmann, and the two have been instrumental in getting back on defense. “Strong defense is the center of this team; success and failure this year depends on how we defend counter attacks,” Hoffman said.
The Warriors have defeated vaunted Malibu twice this season but are gearing up for the critical rematch at Foothill Tech on Friday, Feb. 6. If the Warriors win,
they will likely capture a share of the TVL title. Either way, it appears that the post-season will be in the team’s future if it finishes in second place.

Jenny Alaniz scored twice in a 2-1 win over top-ranked Grace Brethren.
Jan. 29 – Warrior girls soccer defeated Grace Brethren (ranked #1 in CIF) in a Frontier League game, 2-1. “It was a physical, hard fought and well-played game by both teams,” commented coach Charles Bryant. “I was very proud of how we did not back down and how we kept our composure throughout the game.” The Warriors found the net in the 60th minute when Giselle Estrada played a ball to Jenny Alaniz, who put it away from about eight yards out. Alaniz scored the next goal on a spectacular play off a long throw-in launched by Kelsie Bryant. Alaniz fielded the ball with her back to the net and turned and cracked a side volley into the roof of the net. The Warriors gave up a penalty kick with five minutes remaining in the contest. Charles credited the defense of Monica Garcia in holding off Grace Brethren. The Warriors improved to 10-6-1 overall and 8-2 in Frontier League. Jan. 30 – Warrior girls soccer lost 5-0 to Oxnard High School in a non-league tilt. The Warriors were down many players due to illness, and several who took the field were also hampered. Coach Charles Bryant said he had looked forward to the match up against an upper division opponent but it was not to be. “I was happy with the players who made a great effort today despite not even being close to 100 percent: Megan Durflinger, Natalie Saito, Lesly Zapata, Kelsie Bryant, Elie Morgan, Brenda Garcia, Laura Valdez all fought through adversity and displayed a lot of character,” he said.

and the pressure paid off when Geoffrey Acheampong’s hard cross was deflected for a Ranger own-goal. Brandon Sugarman then received a pass from Acheampong and split two defenders with a low shot into the left corner in the 67th minute. Nordhoff scored its goal five minutes later on a free kick just outside the box, but it was Sugarman who put the game out of reach by finishing Iman Fardghassemi’s cross in the 78th minute. The Rams out shot the Rangers 18-6 and played a majority of the game on the offensive. Jan. 30 – Cate boys soccer won its fifth straight Tri-Valley League match, a 3-1 win over Santa Paula that avenged an early season loss. Santa Paula struck first in the game’s eighth minute, but the Rams were not deflated. Geoffrey Acheampong slid a ball across the front of the net and Iman Fardghassemi tucked it into the net in the 13th minute. Four minutes later, Fardghassemi struck again, his hard cross getting deflected into the Santa Paula net by a Santa Paula defender. Then, in the 38th minute, Acheampong struck with a wicked left footed shot to the far post from the top of the box. The second half opened with Cate on its heels, as Santa Paula played furiously to try to cut into the Rams’ lead. But Cate repeatedly countered. In the end, Santa Paula mustered only a handful of shots on Cate’s net all half—all shots that keeper Keller Mochel handled with relative ease. Cate’s centerbacks Patty Thomas and Joel Serugo played a big role in stifling Santa Paula. “This was a great win for us, not just because we beat a very good team, but also because of the manner with which we did it,” commented coach Peter Mack.

Miriam Weiss finished with eight rebounds and six points. Charlotte Pecot, Delaney Mayfield, Mikaela Li and Maliha Hollis all contributed strong defensive play and two points to the score.

Cate School
Jan. 26 – Cate boys basketball nearly erased an 11-point deficit at Grace Brethren but came up just short in the 45-44 loss.

Nick Thomas scored to draw the Rams within one in the finals seconds and finished with 12 points. Clinton Hall had seven points; and Marko Pliso led the team with 17 points and eight rebounds. “Cate has shown some real moments of brilliance, but sadly the team has not been able to pull it together enough for the win,” commented coach Bryan Rodriguez.

school notes Summerland students run for school council
SubMITTeD PHOTO
Summerland School students delivered candidate speeches ahead of elections for the school council.
During a candidate forum at Summerland School on Jan. 30, students in the running delivered speeches to their constituents. Some candidates promised “more fun, but not too much fun,” to bring back weekly frozen juice popsicles, to have regular “theme days,” and to listen to their constituents through a suggestion box. Offices elected included a president, vice president and student reps from each classroom. Students and faculty voted after the speeches on Friday, and results were announced on Monday. “Candidates and voters had the opportunity to experience the democratic process including whether one should disclose the candidate for which one votes and the disappointment that can come when the candidate you choose doesn’t win. In all, it was a valuable experience for all of our students,” commented Principal Holly Minear.
MaIre raDIS
Cate students, from left, Kian O’Connor, Cole Dexter, Jason Pak, Brandon Sugarman, teacher Maria Jose Panadero and James Chang removed about 400 pounds of trash from local beaches on Jan. 28.
Cate students pitch in for Public Service Day
On Jan. 28, Cate School sent students to 38 sites to participate in the school’s Public Service Day. at schools, libraries and social service organizations, Cate students showed up to clean, weed, stock pantry shelves, paint buildings and assist in classrooms. Math teacher amy Venditta, who took students to a local preschool, said, “We had a wonderful time helping out with whatever was needed. The students and teachers there were grateful for our assistance and appreciated the time we spent with the young kids—it was a great place to spend the day!” Public Service Day is organized by Cate Director of Public Service Will Holmes, who makes detailed arrangements with each organization over the course of the fall and winter to ensure that the day runs smoothly and provides a good experience for both the Cate community and the organizations involved.

Carpinteria Library Book Club selection “Shanghai Girls” by Lisa See
Life is all parties and pampering for Chinese sisters Pearl and May Chin until their father squanders the family wealth and sells the girls to Americans to repay his gambling debts. The year is 1937, and the beautiful young women leave Paris as Japanese bombs fall on their beloved city. The journey to Los Angeles that follows holds terrible sacrifices, terrible choices and a life-changing secret. The story of the Chin sisters, “Shanghai Girls” by Lisa See, will be discussed by the Carpinteria Library Book Club at its upcoming meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 18 at 7:30 p.m. at the Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. The club is open to anyone interested in reading and discussing the novel. To find out more, call Tara at 684-4314.
Carpinteria Library recommendation
“In the Sea There are Crocodiles” by Fabio Geda
Ten-year-old Enaiatollah Akbari lives with his mother in a small village in Afghanistan, and his life is about to change forever. One day the Taliban arrive at his school and tell the headmaster to shut it down, but he defies them. They return and the headmaster is shot in front of his students. Soon after, Enaiatollah’s mother takes him to Pakistan making him promise to live by three rules: don’t use drugs, don’t use weapons, don’t cheat or steal. Believing it’s his only chance to survive, she abandons him there to fend for himself. He realizes he must continue to move on if he is to make a meaningful life for himself. He works various jobs then finds traffickers to get him from Pakistan, to Iran, to Turkey, to Greece, and, finally—at the age of 15—Italy, where he’s able to get asylum and start school again. He also relies on the kindness of strangers, a Greek woman, for example, who clothes him and gives him food and money. Though wary of traps and setbacks, he never loses his innate optimism or ingenuity. --Tara O’Reilly, Supervising Librarian, Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.
Friends of the Library Used Book Store recommendation “Reimagining Equality,” by Anita Hill
In “Reimagining Equality: Stories of Gender, Race and Finding Home,” law professor Anita Hill examines the idea of home and its relationship to realizing an American Dream, not only of physical houses, but of a sense of interconnectedness, security, value and belonging for all. For Hill, the sense of home is entwined with the history of how her family “in one generation, went from being property to owning property.” She centers her inquiry on the question, “What if the struggle for rights in America is bigger than simply a discussion of the evolution of rights as defined by law?” “Reimagining Equality” layers individual stories of seeking, finding and losing home with legal, social and literary analysis. This interdisciplinary exploration exposes persistent personal, political and economic patterns of discrimination that stand in the way of equality—from violence to racially restrictive covenants to predatory lending practices that disproportionately impact women and minorities. Ultimately, Hill presents a clear-eyed and hopeful analysis of America’s progress towards equality, the setbacks we continue to face and what it might take to realize a vision of equality that embraces “belonging not mere tolerance—a narrative of community as well as rights.” ––Giti White, volunteer, Friends of the Carpinteria Library Used Book Store, 5103 Carpinteria Ave.
Student recommendation “Splintered” by A.G. Howard
When Alyssa begins hearing the voices of bugs and flowers, she fears that she is suffering from the same sickness that landed her mother in a mental institution so many years ago. However, she soon finds out that her madness isn’t in her head at all, Wonderland is extremely real, and she is meant to complete a series of trials, much like those Lewis Carroll wrote about in his famous novel, in order to save Wonderland and rule as its queen. However, she soon finds that completing her quest and saving Wonderland will be much more difficult than she expected because she is joined not only by her boyfriend, Jeb, but also by her mysterious guide to Wonderland, Morpheus, whose interest in Alyssa may be for reasons other than her right to the Wonderland throne. In this gothic revisiting of the classic tale “Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland,” A.G. Howard creates a magical land full of mystery and intrigue as she tells a story of a perilous journey and an enchanting love triangle. Howard’s use of imagery and unique recreation of the world of Wonderland will enchant readers of all ages. ––Audrey Lent, Santa Barbara City College student

4 lies about becoming a writer that you probably believe
the write practice JOE BUNTING Depending on who you listen to, becoming a writer is either the easiest thing in the world (“Just write!”) or a proposition so impossibly difficult that only a combination of talent approaching genius, luck and years of expensive training (“Get an MFA!”) can turn your writerly dream into reality. Regardless of who you listen to, it’s important to know which advice isn’t true about becoming a writer. With that in mind, here are four lies about becoming a writer that you probably believe. Lie #1: You have to be inspired to become a writer. Inspiration is for amateurs. Real writers write. Many writing columns and even books say that you have to be inspired to write. They give endless suggestions for helping you get inspired, from changing your location to reading inspirational writing to listening to music. However, while inspiration is always nice, the pros agree that you should never wait for inspiration to start writing. “Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration, the rest of us just get up and go to work.” - Stephen King Lie #2: You have to be a grammar expert to become a writer. A few years ago I was part of a writer’s group where a woman brought a piece that was so littered with comma splices and other grammar mistakes that it was impossible not to feel sorry for her. “Shame,” I thought. “Her novel was actually pretty good.” Then, I found out this same woman had already published eight books, all with traditional publishers. That’s when I learned a very important lesson: You don’t need to be an expert at grammar to be a writer. That’s what
editors are for. You do have to be interesting. You do have to be able to tell a good story. While you can hire someone to fix your commas, no one is going to read your writing if it isn’t engaging. Lie #3: You should be a writer because you have good ideas. I know you have a great idea for a novel. You may even have dozens of them. It doesn’t matter how many great book ideas you have if you can’t finish your book. That may sound harsh, but it’s the truth. Don’t believe me? Here’s George R.R. Martin on the subject: “Ideas are cheap. I have more ideas now than I could ever write up. To my mind, it’s the execution that is all-important. I’m proud of my work, but I don’t know if I’d ever claim it’s enormously original.” Lie #4: You could never make it as a writer. If you’ve read this far, you may be thinking, “If this is all true, I could never make it as a writer.” When I was in high school, I decided I wanted to be a writer. It was one of those childhood fantasies, of course, but I was serious. I studied writing in college, and afterward I got a freelancing job at a small local paper. Later, I spent a year traveling the world, working on my writing craft while living in Kenya, Thailand and Vietnam. When I got back, I helped a mentor with his book for free, a job that unexpectedly led to my first ghostwriting job. Since then, I’ve done nearly every writing job in the industry, some of them more fun than others, from writing articles for magazines to editing to designing books. However, I can now say, 12 years later, that I earned my dream. It took long hours and several years of horrible pay, but I’m now a full-time writer. You can make it as a writer. I promise. It might not look like what you thought it would, but it’s very possible. Don’t get discouraged. Instead, get busy. How about you? What lies do you think people believe about becoming a writer?
Practice
Don’t be an amateur and wait for inspiration. Start writing now! Today, spend some time free writing or working on your work in progress. Write for 15 minutes. When you’re finished, share your practice with a friend to get feedback. You can even share your practice on The Write Practice website at thewritepractice.com/ becoming-a-writer-lies. Happy writing! Joe Bunting is a full-time author and blogger who lives and writes in Carpinteria with his wife and son. You can find more practical inspiration for your writing at thewritepractice. com.

Elephants, leopards and giraffes, oh my
On a trip to Tanzania, Sandor and daughter Faline Petrik stood at the edge of Ngorongoro Crater and peered into the vast dimple in the earth. They also visited Kenya and went on safaris in both locales. They got up close and personal with elephants, leopards and giraffes. They also visited with school children at the home depicted in “Out of Africa.” Sandor said the trip was an encore from an adventure to South Africa six years ago.
Thomases check in from Atomium
The Thomas family explored the Atomium when sightseeing in Brussels, Belgium. The structure, a relic of the 1958 World’s Fair, has nine spheres and was constructed to resemble the shape of a unit cell of an iron crystal magnified 165 billion times. The trip was a family visit to Hillegom in the Netherlands and included side journeys to Paris and Brussels. The travelers commented that they were ready to shed a few layers and bask in the Carpinteria sunshine when they returned home.
