from last year on the roofs of downtown buildings. As gulls tend to return to the same spots year after year, it is projected that removing the old nests will encourage the returning gulls to nest elsewhere. The “elsewhere” will hopefully be closer to their natural habitat, the shore.

Gulls may go for the easy dinner in garbage or purposeful feeding by people, but it's not the best diet for them.

“We understand that it's actually better for the health of the eggs if the gulls nest closer to the ocean,” said City Manager Tom Frutchey. “The calcium in the shells of the sea life they eat is helpful in building strong eggshells.”

The overflights occurred on Feb. 3, 2015.

Video was taken, and the remote control ability allowed the contractor, Monterey Drone, and Teri Shaeffer, the City's Code Compliance Officer to go back over certain spots where they saw something suspicious on the video.

“Very few nests were found,” said Frutchey, but the video is being examined very closely.

School Board approves issuance of Measure A bonds

By Michael Sizemore The Pacific Grove School Board passed a resolution approving the issuance and sale of $2.5 million in technology bonds at its January 22 meeting. The bonds were approved by voters in the November, 2014 election when Measure A was passed by a comfortable margin. According to Assistant School Superintendent Rick Miller the issuance will be the first from the measure and will be all that is drawn for at least three years.

The first major purchase will be 1200 Chromebook computers for classroom use, Miller said. The computers will belong to the school and remain there. The purchase of the Chromebooks was suggested by the district’s Technology Committee (consisting of PG District staff members) in a recent meeting.

The computers are needed for technology education on an ongoing basis, Miller said, and urgently needed for tests this April. The standardized tests are taken completely on computer, and in previous years it has been

First First Friday Kicks Off Merger with Art Walk

Skillshots

By Dixie Layne This First Friday is the first First Friday P.G. event that is the result of the merger of the Art & Wine Walk and First Friday into one event. Won’t you join in the premiere of First Friday P.G. 2015? It is a wonderful reason to explore downtown Pacific Grove in the evening.

“This is an exciting venture,” explains Moe Ammar, Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce president. Ammar credits Mayor Bill Kampe “for encouraging the two downtown events, First Friday and the Wine & Art Walk, to merge into one monthly downtown event. With one event, there is a lot more excitement and a lot more businesses and people participating.”

Adrianne Jonson of Artisana Gallery has taken on the yeoman’s job of coordinating and managing this new First Friday P.G. event and has engaged a lucky 13 businesses to open for the debut evening to provide an evening of entertainment, art, and community. Stop in at Artisana Gallery on Lighthouse Avenue and thank Adrianne for all her efforts. “Look for the green flags ... green for GO!” For the Pacific Grove Art Center this event provides an additional evening each month for visitors to have an opportunity to “enjoy a quieter time than the Exhibit Opening Gala provides to meet the exhibiting artists as well as the studio artists,” explains Art Center executive director Theresa Brown. “This first First Friday Gallery Night – named by the Art Center to distinguish it from our Opening Exhibit Gala,” Jeanne Hamilton of the Art Center further explains, “will include music by piano player Michael Martinez and a free-entry drawing for an original watercolor of tulips donated by artist Julie Heilman; entries can only be submitted Friday and the painting will be awarded that evening.” They are looking forward to a festive atmosphere Friday evening.

Lisa Thomas of baby Sprout Boutique on Forest Avenue is also “excited for the evening and looking forward to what the new format brings – new people into their store; more families downtown.” There is every reason to join First Friday P.G. and support the businesses that help make Pacific Grove a vibrant community.

Walk maps are available at all participating locations and information can also be found on the event sponsor’s website: www.Pacific Grove.org

PGULLS From Page 1

“We will know by Friday night how many buildings have nests remaining from last year that still need to be removed. Then, once those roofs are cleaned, the task will be to minimize the number of new nests constructed this year in this one concentrated area, by controlling open food sources and by encouraging gulls looking for a site to nest to find areas outside of downtown,” said Frutchey.

Downtown property owners who have nests will be reminded to remove them by Feb. 20, 2015. If they are not removed, the City will remove them and send the property owner a bill. The Feb. 20 deadline coincides with the expected date the gulls will return and lay eggs, after which time Federal law prohibits interference.

When the gulls return, West Coast Falcontry has been engaged and will release falcons to frighten the gulls away from nesting downtown. Gulls have been known to attack falcons if they have nested and laid eggs, so timing is crucial.

The falcons will do a second, insurance flyover in the summer.

We will post an update on our website about the number of nests found as soon as the information is released, probably sometime Friday, Feb. 6. Our website is at www. cedarstreettimes.com and the update will be on “Front PG News.”

Wm. Tecumseh Sherman Memoirs Feb. 7

As we approach the 150th anniversary of the end of the Civil War, Howard Burnham, in a performance co-sponsored by the City of Pacific Grove Recreation Dept., presents a Sesquicentennial program.

It is a ‘premiere’ of a characterization of the elderly William Tecumseh Sherman in 1879, looking back on his life, which Burnham devised to a commission from Columbia, SC, a city that Sherman’s troops supposedly ‘destroyed’ in February 1865.

Of local interest to us is the fact that Sherman, as a young lieutenant, with his friend Edward Ord, served in Monterey during the Mexican War, and assayed some of the first gold finds from Coloma.

Civil War and history buffs will muster at The Little House in Jewel Park (Central and Grand) Pacific Grove on Saturday, February 7, at 5:30 p.m. to ‘meet’ the General. $10 at the door.

difficult to test everyone as required. Another possibility being researched is a purchase of security cameras which work at night.

Miller said the amount of the first issuance was chosen to fit within the requirements of the measure. Measure A calls for up to $18 million in bonds over an 18-year period. It is planned that the cost to taxpayers will be $17.96 per $100,000 of assessed value. The Board put the bonds out for bid and expects to know later this week which institution will underwrite the bonds.

The Bond Oversight Committee will meet once or twice a year to review expenditures and audit reports pertaining to the bonds.

Miller said he believed costs from the bonds will begin to appear on residents’ tax bills in December, 2015.

“We have yet to actually draw the funding, but it was approved by our Board, so we may proceed with doing that. I am not sure when the Treasurer’s Office starts charging the property owners, but I believe it will be on next year’s property tax bill,” he said.

The Technology Committee (these are District staff members and separate from the Bond Oversight committee) met a couple of weeks ago and the purchase of the Chrome Books was discussed there. This is a separate committee from the Bond Oversight Committee which will meet once or twice per year to review expenditures and audit reports. I didn’t want to get the two committees mixed up.

SambaDá to headline Night Owl on Valentine’s Day

Say hello to Night Owl: The Science of Seduction this Valentine’s Day! The popular adults-only event returns to the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History on Saturday, Feb. 14, from 7-11 p.m. with the band SambaDá.

Discover the secret love lives of animals and explore the “science of seduction,” from fascinating courtship displays to strange mating rituals, and view live animals at this fun adults-only (18+) evening event. Grab a drink, a bite from the Kuki’s Bowl food truck, enjoy live music, and take a closer look at our natural world.

SambaDá has been dubbed one of the West Coast’s “hottest Brazilian bands.”

Combining rich Brazilian sounds, with salsa, funk, reggae and more, SambaDá formed in Santa Cruz in 1998. The band is popular for its danceable music and high energy style. The large band celebrated the release of a new album last year.

“Night Owl is a great way to do something different for Valentine’s Day, whether as a couple or with a group of friends,” said Museum Education Manager Ann Wasser.

Tickets for Night Owl are $15 general admission and $10 for museum members. For more information, and to order tickets online, visit the Museum’s website at http://www. pgmuseum.org/nightowl/. Please have your identification ready at the door for drinks.

TAMC Activates Bicycle Secure Program Bicycle and skateboard riders will soon have more places to park their bikes and skateboards in Monterey County thanks to the Transportation Agency for Monterey County’s Bicycle Secure Program.

The Agency is also offering limited financial support for artistic bicycle rack designs.

Under the program, the Transportation Agency pays the purchasing price of the racks, lockers, and repair stations, including tax and shipping, while applicants are responsible for installing and maintaining the equipment. Applicants proposing an artistic bicycle rack design are also eligible for financial assistance. Businesses, schools, non-profits, and other public agencies in Monterey County are encouraged to apply.

Applications are due to the Transportation Agency by March 5, 2015.

Details about the program, including the application and program guidelines, are available online at http://tamcmonterey.org/programs/bikeped/secure.html For questions, please contact Grant Leonard at (831) 775-4402 or by email at grant@tamcmonterey.org

Veterans Transition Center selected by AT&T Pro-Am to be Featured This Year

The Veterans Transition Center of Monterey County (VTC) is the selected charity to be featured during the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am golf tournament Feb. 9-15.

Each year, the title sponsor AT&T selects a Monterey Peninsula Foundation grantee to be featured in a 60-second message that will air on Friday and Sunday during the week of the tournament to highlight the charitable nature of the event.

Filming was completed last week at the Center in Marina. Founded in 1989, VTC turns the discarded Army homes at Ft. Ord into transitional housing for homeless vets and their families. Approximately 1,200 veterans entered VTC doors last year for information, potential housing, food, clothing and other assistance.

"VTC consistently has 50 to 55 clients in housing,” said Terry Bare, VTC executive director, "And we are seeing much younger homeless and imminently-homeless veterans on a daily basis."

The Monterey County VTC is one of the few programs in the nation to accept veterans and their families, in addition to single male and female veterans.

Program goals are to rehabilitate, so veterans exit the program clean and sober, with employment or other income, and have permanent housing for up to a year after leaving.

During the last five years, VTC has been more than 90 percent successful in achieving these goals and has been noted by the Department of Veterans Affairs as one of the top programs in the nation.

Monterey Peninsula Achieves Lowest Water Use In State

The Monterey Peninsula Water Management District announced that the Monterey Peninsula service area has achieved the lowest residential per person, per day water usage in the state of California for the month of December. In addition, the area reduced its overall water use by 23.1 percent over 2013.

“We are extremely proud of the conservation efforts the residents and businesses on the Monterey Peninsula have undertaken during this unprecedented drought,” commented Dave Stoldt, MPWMD General Manager. “Although the Peninsula has historically conserved water, and these reports can vary month by month, to have achieved the lowest per person residential usage in the state is to be commended.”

In response to Governor Jerry Brown’s mandate to reduce water use by 20 percentstatewide, the Water Management District launched its “Save Water-Go Blue” campaign. An extension of the popular phrase “go green,” the initiative urged residents and businesses to continue their water wise practices, but reach for additional water savings wherever they could. Through events and social media as well as radio, print and television advertising, water saving tips and educational messages were broadcast throughout the fall and into the winter season.

“The ‘Save Water – Go Blue’ campaign really caught on in the community,” said MPWMD Water Demand Manager Stephanie Locke. “We held Water Wise Workshops and Drought Day Drive Thru events, in addition to offering generous rebates and numerous free water saving devices. By presenting a suite of options, our residents and businesses were able to take advantage of water saving opportunities on multiple levels.”

With another year of drought expected, the Water Management District plans to reintroduce the campaign in the spring with additional events and opportunities to learn about ways the Monterey Peninsula can achieve even greater water savings.

For more information on free water saving devices, residential and commercial rebates and water wise tips, please call the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District at 831.658.5601 or visit www.montereywaterinfo.org<http://www.montereywaterinfo.org>

Fatima Larios Found Dead in Campus Dorm

Chadron, Nebraska Police are investigating the death of a 19-year-old female student from Seaside on the Chadron State College campus.

100 Years Ago in Pacific Grove

Mr. Erick Weisz, perhaps better known as Harry Handcuffs Houdini, astounded his New York audience with a daring straitjacket escape. In New York City, Houdini had himself strapped into a regulation straitjacket. The escape artist was then suspended by the feet from a borrowed crane in use to build the New York subway. Houdini escaped handily within a matter of minutes. He reported the feat as having nothing supernatural about it. Perhaps, but this editor thinks the accomplishment was at least one of super athleticism. Mr. Houdini is reportedly on his way to a western states tour. Our readers will be advised of such so that advanced tickets can be purchased.

Pacific Grove offers birthday book

This little book is destined to gain the largest circulation of any book, excepting the Bible, and can now be yours for purchase from the Pacific Grove library. If The Grove’s Christians’ allow the rush and crush of personal ambition to deprive them of their fair share of heavenly food, such Christians must not be surprised to see themselves grow spiritually leaner. This book holds the answer for you. It is composed of one Bible reading accompanied by a spiritual study per day. Surely the miniscule period of time devoted to such reading will pay you off enough with enormous benefits.

But marriage and death records are not overlooked. Just ink them in. The book also features a section for autographs and another section for birthday information. These make the book more valuable yearly. Surely the book is worth $10, and even more, but right now your birthday book can be purchased for the sum of $1, plus 35ȼ for shipping. You can purchase yours from the Pacific Grove Library, or by writing to the Bible & Tract Society, 17 Hicks Street, Brooklyn, NY. That’s right, the price is just $1.35. Either way. Pay in cash or by check.

New models here

Mr. L. H. Peterson has announced the arrival of two new models of auto mobile: the Hudson Six and the Hudson Eight. These are auto mobiles with the new passengersensitive bodies and the roomier tonneau.2 The Hudsons are, without doubt, the handsomest auto mobiles of the year. And, also without doubt, they offer the best value to be found on the auto mobile market this year. Both the Hudson Six and the Hudson Eight are lighter than other vehicles (About 2,100 lbs. each), and they both get better gasoline mileage than most other auto mobiles.3 The name Hudson comes from Hudson’s department store, founder of the auto motive line. Like the goods sold by the department store, everything about the Hudson auto-mobiles is quality. The 1915 models feature dual foot-pumped brakes and a hand-set mechanical parking brake. Temperature and oil pressure readings are obtained from dashboard devices. The price tags are $1,170 and $2,250. Financing is available through the Bank of E. Cooke Smith.

Huerta executes U. S. soldier

The U. S. government today demanded of the Mexican government of Victoriano Huerta full details in the shooting of Private Frank Parks, the American infantryman who allegedly strayed past the Mexican lines in Vera Cruz. Our ambassador declared that the failure to provide a complete accounting could lead to all-out war. No mention was made in our ambassador’s report of whether Parks was shot as a spy. Nor was any mention made as to the method of body disposal. The America government cabled the Brazilian government, asking the Brazilians to advise Huerta of the strong feelings of the United States. The note asked the Brazilians that Huerta be notified of the protest and to advise Huerta that the strongest reparations will be taken. The note said that if Parks is still alive, then such should be promptly noted or the truth will be pursued.

No specific mention was made of how the United States intends to pursue the truth.

The Three South American mediators claimed that none had received any mention of the Park’s matter.

Amateur Golf at Del Monte

The Del Monte Resort has announced a handicap golf match will be played this Friday through Sunday. Trophies are to be given for the best net score in qualifying, for the winners in each set of nine holes, the high men’s over-all score, the high women’s over-all score, and also for holes-in-one, if any. This tournament is open only to amateurs.

The Art of Repurposing Jane Roland

Animal Tales and Other Random Thoughts There are few days that pass when we are not reminded that we must save the earth, that we must go green which includes recycling. There is no doubt that humans have destroyed the environment, not intentionally, simply by being. Of course there are those who have no regard for others or Mother Earth. These folk throw cigarettes wherever they may land, drop paper goods and containers where they might fall.

Those of us who are conscientious are appalled when we view the destruction created by what we can only call slovenly behavior. The miscreants should find their “hell” buried up to their necks in trash. But this is not intended to be a sermon.

There is a simple, pleasant way to do one’s part in saving our planet. Shop at Thrift or Benefit stores. “And why would that make a difference?” you might ask.

Think about it. Instead of buying a new garment, purchase one at a second hand store. Not only will you most likely find something of much higher quality than you might afford at a retail establishment but you will be repurposing a piece of clothing. For your purposes. “Oh” some say “I will never wear something worn by another.” “Why not?” I would respond.

If someone fears germs, have the item cleaned. Dishes used by another, can be put to use by another and later passed on. Instead of ten sets of china or pottery there need be only one making its way down through the ages. There is very little that can’t be found at second hand stores. There is also the thrill of discovery. If you buy a second hand table, you might be, indirectly, saving a tree. There are many shops on the Peninsula which support various causes and at least seven in Pacific Grove. If it be people, illness or animals, there is one for you, or many if your charities overlap.

I speak for the AFRP Treasure Shop which considers itself GREEN. While we urge donors to bring us only clean, saleable, items that does not always happen.

If donations appear that are not saleable in our shop we send them to someone who can use them; this might be migrants, homeless or other larger thrift agencies. If there is hope for the item, we repair or, in the case of clothing, we wash, or take to a local cleaner who refurbishes pro-bono.

There is nothing that is not repurposed either with us or others who can use them. Broken jewelry is given or sold for

a tiny amount to those who create gorgeous pieces to wear or display. Broken or cracked dishes can become mosaics.

Old, scratched records are on walls. My son, Jay and his wife, redesign items with fervor. A bird cage became a chandelier, an old chair, a planter; a game table out of a broken relic, a wall from bottles or just fixed up and made new again Many of our goods are very special, because those who are devoted to animals really don’t want to make money by selling their items, they wish the critters to benefit from their bounty. We receive new items, vintage, antique, original art work, classic jewelry and fantastic books. Our library is the best in town according to the customers. When you buy a book from us for $2.00 instead of retail for $25.00 or more, you are saving another tree, as well as gasoline and the noxious polluting fumes emitted from the automobile as you drive out to Costco. Speaking of books, there was an article in a local paper yesterday about not defacing them. What is more attractive than shelves filled with well-read tomes? Also books may be used as decoration or even stacked to support a table top. Old dishes can hold a plant or simply a cache for little things. Old kitchenware decorate walls. Inexpensive art work might decorate the walls of those not able to afford the original (although we have a local artist who gives us his work) Join the march to save our planet, recycle and above all repurpose.

• In the run for the Academy Awards it is hard to believe than any “august” group could pick a winner as those movies nominated are so very different. We know it is all political; however, the fact that Clint Eastwood was not selected to be in the running as director of “American Sniper” is shameful. In my opinion and that of those viewers to whom I have spoken Angelina’s “Unbroken” far surpassed the highly touted “Boyhood” which is beloved by critics and disliked by much of the viewing public who yearned for it to finish. For movies I would choose “The Grand Budapest Hotel.” It was so quirky, entertaining and sprinkled with delightful cameos by well-known stars. I will see it again.

“Where have all the people gone?

2015 Point-in-Time Homeless Census Takers ask

Actual results of the bi-annual Homeless Census in Monterey County won’t be released for several weeks, but preliminary facts indicate the city of Monterey’s homeless population outnumbers Pacific Grove’s by about 10 to 1. The ratio of homeless women to homeless men seems to be 1.06 females per every 10 males.

These statistics were gathered Wed., Jan. 28, 2015 by my four-member crew during the 2015 Point-in-Time Homeless Census conducted by the Watsonville branch of Applied Survey Research .

ASR’s mission statement is: Helping people build better communities since 1980.

According to ASR: The federal government requires a Point-in-Time count during the last 10 days of January nationwide every two years. Each count results in a “snapshot” of the number of sheltered and unsheltered homeless on a given night.

Thus, early morning hours provide census takers the chance to count people before they arise and depart their sleeping places for the day. .

While ASR produced and oversaw the people-counting activities that comprised the early-morning census, those who actually performed the field work were teams of unpaid volunteers coupled with paid guides who led the head-counting expeditions. As a reporter, I was embedded with bed-seeking troops half my age.

We met during pitch-black darkness at the Salvation Army in Seaside at 5 a.m. We were served steaming Starbuck’s coffee and pastries while being paired up with team members and given our maps.

I was assigned to two young women I’ll call Tisha and Julie and a young man I’ll call Gavin.

Gavin is an expert at slogging through muddy paths and following grass-track trails because his uncle lives under bridges in Monterey.

We refreshed our memories about rules John Connery, ASR Research Assistant, gave at our training session a week earlier. “Don’t ask questions or talk to the homeless,” I recalled.

“Don’t take any pictures.” Gavin said.

“Be respectful. Don’t intrude on their privacy,” Tisha said.

“Do enumerate them by gender, if possible, by age, and whether they are in

Homeless in Paradise a vehicle, campsite. To be a family, there must be a child under 18,” Julie said.

“If you sense danger, get out of there!” we all said.

Equipped with flashlights and our maps, we climbed into Tisha’s van. First stop was Del Monte Shopping Center, where we parked behind two dumpsters and headed down a steep path leading through oak trees, tall grass and eerily primeval wetlands paralleling the freeway a few hundred yards away.

First encampment found by flashlight beam was an abandoned dent in grass surrounded by empty beer cans. We puffed and panted around a bend and up a steep hill.

“Shhhh. There’s one,” Gavin pointed to a plaid shirt. We slunk toward the camp.

The fabric was hanging on a limb. “It’s just a road sign,” Gavin said, shining his beam into the trees. A dozens strips of orange cloth hung like fabled yellow ribbons from old oak trees.“They’re pointers, like the fairy-tale crumbs the kids followed to keep from getting lost.”

Behind a hedge of dry brush we glimpsed several sleeping bags and other articles. Nearby was another sleeping bag.

All were empty.

“Where have all the people gone?”

Julie asked.

Gavin said, “They move around.

They ain’t called invisible for nothing.”

His flashlight beam spotted three objects shaped like hippo-sized potatoes. “Shhhh.”

Gavin beckoned us forth.Eureka! We found our first encampment in which three people were fast asleep. Judging from their gear, all appeared to be male.

Dawn was breaking. Back at the car, we split into two teams, one to trek along the roadside and the other to trudge through the deep brush. We met up at Jack in the Box on Munras Ave. and consulted our maps.

Homeless Census maps, derived from U.S. Census Bureau tracts, are guideposts to counting the unsheltered homeless.

Our two census tracts covered Monterey

from Munras Ave. at Fremont to Skyline Drive and Veterans Park. The other map was for Pacific Grove from Forest Ave. to David Ave. to Congress and back along Sinex Ave. We got to Jack in the Box at 8:30 a.m. The invisibles were now visible.

Two homeless men were using the facilities and having coffee. A couple went by on bicycles, waving and saying “Good morning. We’re waking up.” I smiled and returned the greeting. Tisha said, “That’s a no no!”

A sixtyish woman in brown coat and black stocking cap flashed a smile and “Please Give What You Can—God Bless You” sign. I turned away to avoid bursting into tears, and reminded myself why re-

maining impersonal-but-involved matters: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you because there but for the grace of God go I.!

The Point-in-Time census increases community understanding of homelessness, retains and improves funding for homeless services, generates valid, accurate data regarding homeless individuals and their families, and links homeless data collection efforts to strategic program and policy planning.

Julie and Gavin navigated as we finished counting people from inside the van. We scanned Pacific Grove’s George Washington Park, but spotted no homeless there. Our tour ended at 9:50 a.m. on Candy Cane Lane, where no signs of Santa Claus or homeless people were observed.

We returned to the Salvation Army at 10 a.m. sharp. Our Street Tally Sheets totaled 32 homeless people: 29 men, 3 women. Except for the couple on bicycles, all others were loners on foot; no families or pets were counted.

Twenty-six of the men and all three women were in Monterey. The remaining three men were in Pacific Grove. Not a huge number, but a definite indicator that the homeless really are almost invisible in Pacific Grove.

Biggest number of the morning was 55, the number of dollars Gavin was paid in cash.

Tom Stevens

Growing up in the islands when TV was still new, I developed a quasi-mystical reverence for Disneyland and an abiding envy of all Californians.

Watching Tinkerbell sparkle across the family TV screen on Sunday evenings, I could only dream of the Magic Kingdom an ocean away. But Californians could visit anytime they wanted. Disneyland vacations, class trips, even junior proms were hohum to them.

Year upon year, Sunday after Sunday passed in growing futility. As I watched in distant anguish, Disneyland added ever-spiffier attractions, even entire new “lands.”

I gnashed my teeth as happy riders sped down the Matterhorn on some pneumatic thrill ride.

Finally I graduated from high school and headed off to college in faraway Massachusetts. En route I detoured to Anaheim to visit the kingdom I had so long imagined.

Amazingly, Disneyland lived up to its notices. In a single exhilarating day, I saw the sights, rode the rides, descended the Matterhorn and bought a silly top hat on Main Street.

I was only there one day, but Disneyland circa 1964 made a big impression.

Midway through my freshman year in college, I applied for a summer job at the park.

“I am very friendly, hard-working, conscientious and responsible,” I lied. “I can add geographic diversity to your staff, and I am a strong swimmer. If hired as a Jungle River Safari Guide, I could rescue passengers toppled in hippopotamus collisions.

Looking forward to hearing from you promptly, I remain, etc.”

Many weeks passed. Finally an envelope arrived from Anaheim. In the dim light of a chilly New England evening, I tore it open to discover a form letter that forever dashed my fantasy of wearing a safari helmet and firing blank cartridges at crocodiles.

“Dear (your name here). Thanks for your interest in summer employment at Disneyland. Unfortunately, we get 50,000 applications from Anaheim-area residents alone. Most of them can also swim. Best wishes, etc.”

I was, of course, crushed. In retrospect, I realize it was just the first of many childhood illusions that would need throttling so I could become the flinty, hard-eyed realist I am today. It was also comforting to suspect that thousands of other Jungle River Safari applicants had received the same letter.

I could have reapplied, but life intervened. After military service, a couple of marriages and divorces, various careers, some travel, and three million words of deathless prose, I looked up one day to realize 60 years had passed since my Disneyland visit.

What made me think of it was recent news that the Magic Kingdom had incubated a measles outbreak that then spread to 14 or 15 states. In fairness, the outbreak could have happened nearly any place where large numbers of Americans gather; Six Flags Over Texas, for instance, or Carnival Cruises or the Super Bowl. This year’s vector just happened to be Disneyland.

When I visited the Magic Kingdom 60 years ago, virtually all Americans had been vaccinated as children for measles, diphtheria, polio, tetanus and other preventable afflictions. Schools even required it. Among the thousands I encountered in the park that day in 1964, it’s likely none was carrying measles.

But the public’s trust in medical science has diminished considerably since then.

Otter Views

Many Americans now believe vaccinations cause autism, or are the devil’s handiwork, or something. School districts routinely grant vaccination exemptions to families who request them on religious or sectarian grounds. And these families are not all snakehandling Pentecostals. I was surprised to read that supposedly enlightened Marin County is an anti-vaccination stronghold.

I was dismayed to see Disneyland linked to measles, because I have always linked the place to . . . pirates. I can’t really explain this belief, other than to surmise the park had some piratical attraction the day I visited. I dimly remember a pirate ship somehow menacing Tom Sawyer’s Island. Was it Mike Fink’s riverboat pirates? Captain Hook?

I seem to recall a black flag with skull and crossbones.

That dark banner resurfaced at the Hartnell College playhouse Saturday afternoon, when the Friends of the Monterey Symphony presented the first of two pirate-themed “mystery theater” fundraisers. (The second is at 5 p.m. tomorrow at the Portola Hotel).

Playgoers were encouraged to unshackle their inner pirates, so I wore a plastic hook hand, a knotted kerchief, an eye patch and a greatcoat and snarled “Aargghh!” a lot. Because few others had unshackled their inner pirates, I was given a wide berth.

Revealing the “Penniless Pirate” mystery here would be more than my life is worth, but the play is set in 1718 in Blackbeard’s hilltop hideout overlooking Jamaica’s Montego Bay. The lofty setting reminded me that Robert Louis Stevenson supposedly modeled Treasure Island on Point Lobos. His pirates did fine without vaccinations.

Forest Theater Reopening Pushed Back to 2016 The reopening of Carmel-by-theSea’s historic and venerated Forest Theater has been pushed back to 2016 primarily due to the expected length of preparing construction documents and the construction period, but also to make allowances for inclement weather in the spring.

The decision to postpone the reopening was reached by the two resident theater groups this week with and concurred with by city officials. The key theater people were Stephen Moorer, founder and executive director of the Pacific Repertory Theatre Co., and Yvonne Hildebrand-Bowen, executive director of the Forest Theater Guild. Each organization stages shows at the Forest Theater.

There had initially been plans to reopen on about July 24. As revisions to the design arose, the timeline was revised to September.

The Forest Theater was closed in April 2014 after serious structural and safety issues were found during a careful examination of the site. City officials then reluctantly decided to immediately and completely close down the theater, which staged its first production more than 100 years ago. No performances were held in 2014.

“We’re really excited that the Forest Theater is finally getting the attention that it deserves and we’ve been saying since the closing that we need to get it done right,” said Moorer. “It’s sad that we have to lose another season. It’s going to hurt our organization and others.

But in the long run it’s most important that the work at the Forest Theater is done right with the right amount of attention to detail.”

Hildebrand-Bowen said, “All of the theater users and community members want what’s best for the theater and com-

munity: a good safe place to have our shows and a community gathering place.

We really want it to be done right. I’m so happy that the city is taking the steps to move forward. I’m looking forward to seeing it open again.”

Doug Schmitz, Carmel City Administrator, said, “While everyone involved had a desire to get the theater opened this coming summer, the additional time for plan preparation and bidding allows for more thoroughness and will prove attractive to prospective contractors, thus drawing a large numbers of good bids and reducing the number of change orders which are always expensive. We want to rebuild the theater so it withstands regular usage and the elements which come with time and age so that performances decades from now will be on the solid and lasting work undertaken in 2015.”

“I think we’re all disappointed,” said Andy Vanderford, the city’s project manager for the work at the Forest Theater. “The city has been pursuing a very fast-paced and compressed schedule since the theater was red-tagged.”

However, additional changes to meet various issues, including design

elements approved by the City Council earlier this month, added time to the process.

“We decided to incorporate these changes into the design prior to going out for bid,” said Vanderford. “These tweaks or revised drawings still have to go to the city building official for review.

Given the existing schedule, there would not have been enough time to get feedback from bidders and we believe that some would have dropped out of the bidding process. All these issues and others were brought forth to the stakeholders Monday and it was agreed to delay the reopening. July was overly optimistic and if we have a really wet spring, you can’t pour the concrete. Now we can take the necessary time to discuss all the details.”

The cost for the first phase of the work was put at approximately $2 million, about 50 percent of Carmel-bythe-Sea’s capital improvement project during the current fiscal year.

Had the city decided to pursue a compressed schedule, there would have approximately an additional $200,000 in costs for accelerated construction.

The architect is Chris Wasney of

the architectural firm Cody Andersen Wasney.

“Everyone wanted the theater to be open as early as possible and everyone tried to do that, but when you’re confronted with an immediate closure you simply have to have the time to explore all the options and ramifications before you jump into something,” Moorer added. “We’ve been getting community input, and looking at the artistic issues, which is important, as well as the basic necessities.”

Also remaining closed will be the indoor theater that is used by the School of Dramatic Arts (SoDA) and run by PacRep. Stakeholder Walt deFaria, president of the Forest Theater Foundation, said, “I think we’re doing the right thing. We were trying to mash too many things together too quickly. I’ve always felt that 2016 was when it should happen.

We’ll be able to give the public a much improved Forest Theater.”

Stakeholder Carolyn Hardy, who represents residents, said, “It was a very compressed schedule to begin with. Additional drawings meant extra time on the part of the architect and that would have further pushed out the bid date.

Opening in late September would have left very little of the season.”

Moorer said that one scheduling change for this summer will be that rather than stage “The Wizard of Oz” at the Forest Theater, PacRep will offer a production of “Oliver!” at the Golden Bough, starting in mid-September.

“The Pirates of Penzance” opens at the Golden Bough this weekend, January 30. Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic opera will be on the boards for a fourweek engagement.

Heart Month Lectures at CHOMP

It is the leading cause of death and is to blame for one in every four deaths. It is responsible for more than 720,000 heart attacks and 600,000 deaths each year in the United States alone. The culprit? Heart disease. To help prevent heart disease and to increase awareness of its affects, Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula and its Tyler Heart Institute (THI) are participating in American Heart Month. While Monterey County has a lower rate of death from heart disease than the state of California and the nation, there is still a lot that can be done to save and improve lives.

During February, Community Hospital and THI will host four free events — all focused on helping to identify, prevent, and treat heart disease.

February 6. Go Red Tree Lighting Join us at 6 p.m. as we light the hospital’s cypress tree in red to honor women and promote the prevention of heart disease. A graduate of THI’s Cardiac Wellness Program will be the honorary tree lighter.

The red lights will come on at twilight every evening in February after February 6. Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula front entrance, 23625 Holman Hwy, Monterey.

February 11. Women’s Heart Health Evening Join us from 5:30-8 p.m. for an evening focused on women’s heart health with a free lecture, information booths, and a workout option of yoga or body sculpt.

I Am Purple

By Daniela Coatu

Upon opening my eyes for the first time, I saw two distinctly different beings: One pink and one blue.

I instantly loved them, just as they loved me, at first sight.

I was dressed in sparkles and roses so as not to be mistaken for anything other than the label I was associated with.

The label my pink and blue had given me.

I remember frilly skirts, gentle curtsies, gaudy tiaras and tight pony tails.

Following the rules a pink was assigned seemed to be no problem for me.

That is, because I thought it was the only way I could be for the longest time.

I had been brought up believing these limitations and regulations were normal.

But something didn’t feel right.

I didn’t want to dress in jewels, or matching outfits—I never really wanted to.

I had only been told that was what I wanted.

It was engraved into my brain and I believed it.

What I really wanted was to hear the crack of a swung bat hitting a home run ball, and watching it soar while sliding into home plate.

I wanted to hear a roaring crowd scream my name as I was about to pitch a curveball.

I wanted the feeling you get while embracing your teammates after winning a game.

I wanted to be a pink, with hints of a blue.

I wanted to do so many things outside of the walls surrounding me.

And all of a sudden I was dealing with being put in this world with the wrong name, under the wrong label, involved with all the typical stereotypes.

“Being different should be normal,” I thought.

Because being different should be okay, instead of a problem of some sort.

Hell, being different shouldn’t even exist, we should just BE. That’s when I decided I am not going to conform to the adjectives people spew, spit and throw at me with their judgmental expressions.

I am not pink, nor blue. I am my own self.

I am a mixture of what I want.

I am Purple.

Times • Page 11 Eva Lothar to Screen Her Film at Steinbeck: Art of Fiction Exhibit February 6, 2015 • CEDAR STREET

Street of the Sardine, the last visual testimony of the once thriving Cannery Row

“Steinbeck: The Art of Fiction,” an exhibit of sculpture, photography, and paintings featuring artistic interpretations of the author’s fiction opened in Pacific Grove at the American Tin Cannery this week. In addition to the permanent exhibit, the show will include one-day showings and lectures by featured artists during its run.

The exhibit celebrates Steinbeck’s enduring talent and love of Pacific Grove – his muse.

The first featured artist presented at this Steinbeck exhibit is filmmaker Eva Lothar, who will screen her 30 minute Academy Award nominated documentary short, “Street of the Sardine,” Friday, February 13, at 6:00 p.m.

Wine reception follows screening. Lothar will host the event and describe her experience and answer questions.

Come experience the sights and sounds of Cannery Row from nearly a half-century ago.

Eva Lothar was a young girl growing up in France when she read John Steinbeck’s Cannery Row, a novel about what she thought were fictional characters in a fictional place on the other side of the world. It was 1964 when this very same girl, now a young woman on her own in America, moved to Monterey. She began exploring her new surroundings when one evening she heard the seals barking along the waterfront. She ventured down to take a look, and to her amazement she found Cannery Row. John Steinbeck’s Cannery Row. “It did exist.”

This Cannery Row captured Lothar’s imagination; it was not today’s Cannery Row of tourist shops, restaurants and the now famous Aquarium, but was much like the place Steinbeck had so artfully described in his book – absent the constant activity of Row inhabitants with the fishermen and canneries working around the clock. This 1960’s Cannery Row seemed to be taking its last breath along with the Monterey Bay. Somehow Lothar knew she was witnessing something important and thought she must document the sights and sounds – the idea of a book emerged that soon gave way to the idea of a movie.

Lothar’s film, “Street of the Sardine,” captures the mood of Cannery Row just as the sardines and the last canneries disappeared. It captures that time when a deserted Row with its weathered wooden and tin buildings and barnacled ridden pilings were shrouded in eerie sights and sounds with the accompaniment of barking sea lions, fighting gulls, and the distant plaintive call of the foghorn.

As all seems lost and abandoned there is life brought back

‘Pirates of Penzance’ 2015 at Pac Rep

PacRep Theatre’s SoDAonStage program opens its 2015 season with a modern-dress version of the comedyopera favorite, “The Pirates of Penzance,” playing January 30 through February 22, at the Golden Bough Theatre in Carmel.

The story surrounds Frederic (Arick Arzadon), who, having completed his 21st year, is released from his apprenticeship to a band of tender-hearted pirates. He meets Mabel (Katie Hazdovac), the daughter of Major-General Stanley (Kenneth Cusson), and the two young people fall instantly in love. Frederic discovers, however, that he was born on February 29, so, technically, he only has a birthday each leap year. His apprenticeship contract states that he is to remain with the pirates "until his 21st birthday", and so he must serve the pirates until 2040!

Bound by his sense of duty, Frederic's only solace is that Mabel agrees to faithfully wait for him.

Directed by company founder Stephen Moorer with musical direction by Don Dally and choreography by Mikey Perdue, the popular opera features a cast of over 30 performers, with guest artists including long-time PacRep performers Ken Cusson as the “Major General,” Jennifer Foreman as “Ruth,” Christopher Sullinger as “Pirate King,” and Nico Abiera as the hip-hopping “Sergeant of the Guard.” The recent Broadway production won several awards, including the Tony Award for Best Revival and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Musical, and features the well-known musical numbers “I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General,” “Poor Wandering One” and “I am the Pirate King!”

The Golden Bough Theatre is located on Monte Verde Street between 8th & 9th Avenues, in Carmel-by-the-Sea. Single ticket prices range from $8 (children) to $25 (adults) Discounts are given to seniors over 65, students, children, teachers, and active military. For tickets call 831-622-0100 or inquire online at PacRep.org.

The PacRep Box Office is located at the Golden Bough Playhouse on Monte Verde Street between 8th and 9th Avenues, Carmel-by-the-Sea. Business hours are Tuesdays through Saturdays; 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. Telephone (831) 622-0100 or visit www.pacrep.org for more information.

to the Row when fishing boats return to the canneries to unload their catch – not sardines but squid. Voices barking orders in the native languages of the fishermen are heard over the screaming gulls fighting for food. The cannery workers return to begin their work – mostly women, all speaking in their native tongues of Italian, Spanish, English, and Portuguese can be heard as they line up along the conveyor belts just as the catch moves past them. This is Cannery Row’s last gasp of life before the bulldozers move in to forever change the landscape of the street along the Monterey Bay – Street of the Sardine.

The exhibit runs through March 31, and is open Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The exhibit not only includes the work of sculptor and exhibit organizer Lew Aytes, painter Warren Chang, photographer Robert Nease, and the late Robert Lewis’ historic photographs (1957-1958) of Cannery Row but will host photographs from Pat Hathaway’s collection, paintings from Benjamin Bode, and many others to be announced.

‘Dylan and Dylan’ Reprised

The first performance of this show at Hidden Valley Music Seminars in Carmel Valley, in January, was SO popular that another evening has been added! Dylan Thomas and Bob Dylan are two of the best-known and highly respected voices of the twentieth century: two artists, related by name and attitude, each with a gift for surprising, penetrating, and beautiful language. This powerful and mysterious show features the talents of Taelen Thomas, Steve Mortensen, and Richard Rosen, weaving together stories, spoken word, and song to present Dylan & Dylan’s distinctive rhythms and attitudes toward the pulse and passions of life, and the realities of our times. The range of themes in this show is rich: youth, death, the dreams of pigs, lust, love, war, and “Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” Featured compositions include “Forever Young,” “ Fern Hill,” “When the Ship Comes In,” and selections from “Under Milk Wood.”

This moving tribute will be performed on Thursday, February 19, 2015, at 7:30 pm at Hidden Valley, 88 West Carmel Valley Road, Carmel Valley, CA. Admission is $15. For more information call 659-3115 or info@hiddenvalleymusic.org Richard Rosen of Carmel Valley, master of many harmonicas, plays with a dramatic beauty that moves the heart, and has performed Bob Dylan’s songs for decades.

Taelen Thomas is a poetical showman who has been performing works of Dylan Thomas since 1983, and sometimes even dares to imitate, admiringly, the rolling, resonant Welsh thunder of the man’s fabled voice.

Steve Mortensen, a versatile singer/ songwriter known for his own wordsmithing and simple yet elegant guitar playing, draws on his years as a Bob Dylan aficionado to round out the trio.

Stevenson Presents ‘Working’ Stevenson School Performing Arts presents the musical “Working.” Based on Studs Terkel’s best-selling book of interviews with American workers, “Working” is a musical exploration of 26 people from all walks of life.

The show contains timeless truths and explores how people’s relationships to their work ultimately reveal key aspects of their humanity, regardless of the trappings of the job itself. “Working” paints a vivid portrait of the men and women the world so often takes for granted: the schoolteacher, the phone operator, the waitress, the millworker, the mason, and

the housewife, just to name a few. This version of “Working” allows the audience to get a rare glimpse of the actors and technicians working to put on a show. This raw adaptation only enhances the realistic and relatable nature of the subject matter.

Performances will take place over two weekends: Friday and Saturday, February 6–7 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, February 8 at 2:00 p.m., and Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, February 12–14 at 7:30 p.m. in Keck Auditorium on the Stevenson School Pebble Beach Campus at the corner of Forest Lake Road and Lisbon Lane.

Tickets are $10 for general and $7 for seniors, students and military.

Singer/Songwriter Tony Sheppard In Concert at Marina Library

Since the late 1970s, Tony Sheppard has performed in many of the major night spots on the Monterey Peninsula. As a result, he became one of the best known entertainers in the area. Way back in the olden days when many of the landmarks of the Steinbeck-era still stood on Cannery Row, locals and tourists went to hear “The Monterey Minstrel” sing his ballads and love songs. Songwriting was and still is his true love.

Tony’s past performances include The California First Theater and Hartnell College. He also appeared as the opening act for Eric Burden (House of the Rising Sun) and R&B soul legend Otis Clay in 1991 at Doc Ricketts Lab on Cannery Row. Tony Sheppard’s Valentine’s Day Concert will feature some of the greatest love songs ever written. You can find him at http://www.tonysheppard.com for more information.

Times • February 6, 2015 Trying to clean up the swordfish catch

Page 14 • CEDAR STREET

The mile-long drift gillnets the California swordfish industry uses snag and drown so many whales and marine mammals the fishery is considered the “dirtiest” along the West Coast. That will be the topic when Dr. Geoff Shester, California program director for Oceana, speaks to the Monterey Bay Chapter of the American Cetacean Society in Pacific Grove on Feb. 26. The program begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Boat Works building at Hopkins Marine Station, 120 Ocean View Blvd. It is free and open to the public.

Shester studied ways to reduce bycatch in nearshore gillnet fisheries while working out of Hopkins Marine Station, earning his doctorate from Stanford University’s Interdisciplinary Program in Environment and Resources.

Working out of the Monterey office for Oceana, he’s looking for ways to reduce bycatch in gillnet and trawl industries, as well as protecting forage species in the California Current ecosystem, and restoring endangered Pacific sea turtle and shark populations. Oregon and Washington have banned the drift gillnets, but California has not. Oceana has proposed transitioning away from drift gillnets completely with alternate fishing methods, such as legal harpoon gear.

Details of the program can be found on the cetacean society’s Web site at www. acsmb.org.

Back to Basics Part IX - Schedule E More Estate Planning Failures

of the Rich and Famous

Travis H. Long, CPA

Kyle A. Krasa, Esq.

Travis on Taxes So you decided to put your home up for rent for two weeks surrounding the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Fortunately for you, it was rumored that Arnold Palmer once spent the afternoon on your front lawn. As a result, there are so many prospective renters that you are having to beat them away with golf clubs.

Finally you settle on a renter and a nice fat $40,000 check for two weeks! Score!

But then you remember this pesky thing you do each year called taxes, and you start wondering how you are going to report this on your tax returns. The surprising answer is that it won't get reported at all. There is a rule which states if you rent your home for 14 days or less during the year, you do not have to report the income. All $40,000 is tax free! But what if your renters need an extension of one day? Don't do it! If you do, the entire amount is now taxable on Schedule E. In this issue, we are discussing Schedule E - Supplemental Income and Loss. Prior articles are republished on my website at www.tlongcpa.com/blog if you would like to catch up on our Back to Basics series on personal tax returns.

Schedule E is a two-page form used to report income from rental real estate, royalties, and income from partnerships, s-corporations, trusts, and estates. Part I handles the reporting of income and expenses of rental real estate and royalties. There is a section regarding rental real estate that asks for the number of days rented at fair market value and the number of days of personal use. This information is necessary in order to apply limitations regarding the rental of personal residences and vacation homes.

Any personal use will affect the allowable deductions to some extent. (See my articles "Renting Your Vacation Home" on my website originally published August 10 and 24 of 2012 for more details.)

All expenses related to caring for your rental real estate can be deducted. Besides costs such as property taxes, interest, repairs, etc., you can also use the standard mileage rate (56 cents per mile for 2014) to deduct any rental related mileage you drive. If your property requires you to travel away from home overnight, you can deduct lodging and 50 percent of your meals as well.

If rental property generates a loss, there are several tests that must be applied near the bottom of Schedule E page one to determine if the losses will be allowed, or suspended for use in future years. You can only take losses to the extent that you have an investment at-risk. Form 61K-198 is used to determine this. There are also rules limiting the amount of losses you can use against other income if the losses come from passive activities. Rental real estate is generally considered a passive activity, and Form 8582 is used to determine if your losses will be limited.

Part II of Schedule E begins on page two and summarizes income and losses from flow through activities of partnerships and s-corporations. Your share of these activities is reported to you on a Form K-1. Again, at-risk and passive activity loss limits are applied. Your basis in the underlying partnership or s-corporation activity as well as your level of participation and type of ownership interest are considered in these calculations.

Part III covers your share of estate and trust activities reported to you on a K-1 in a similar fashion as in part II. The main difference being that there are generally no at-risk limitations to worry about.

Part IV covers income or losses from Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits.

These are essentially mortgage-backed securities: a solid product which earned a bad reputation during the financial crisis from 2007-2010 when sub-prime mortgages were bundled and sold together.

Planning for Each Generation The best way to illustrate the importance of good estate planning is to share stories of what goes wrong when people fail to address this important topic. Celebrities give us no shortage of estate planning “counter examples.” I have several posters in my office entitled, “Estate Planning Mistakes of the Rich and Famous,” published by Insurance News Net Magazine.

There are so many examples that there are now five such posters with different examples of poor celebrity estate planning. In a previous column, I shared some of the stories from the original poster. Below are a few more in this never-ending supply of cautionary celebrity estate planning stories as provided by Insurance News Net Magazine.

Elizabeth Edwards: Elizabeth Edwards attempted to disinherit her husband, former Presidential candidate John Edwards. However, North Carolina law does not allow the disinheritance of a spouse. It became a question of whether or not he could contest the estate plan and if so, whether or not the attorneys who drafted the estate plan would be liable to her intended beneficiaries for malpractice.

Dennis Hopper: At the end of the famous Hollywood actor’s life, he was battling both cancer and his fifth wife. In the midst of his divorce proceeding, he attempted to change the beneficiary to his $1 million life insurance policy but was denied due to technical glitches.

He died before he could address the issues with his beneficiary form. A court battled ensued. This illustrates the need to update estate planning and beneficiary designations as soon as life changes occur.

Gary Coleman: The former child actor divorced his wife two years before his death. After he unexpectedly died, his ex-wife claimed that she was entitled to his estate because of a handwritten will that was executed before his divorce. Other wills surfaced and there was debate about which will controlled.

Marlon Brando: After Marlon Brando died, his housekeeper claimed that he had promised to give her a house that he bought in the San Fernando Valley. However, it was an oral promise which is not sufficient estate planning. If this were truly his intent, he should have made it legally effective by formally amending his written estate plan.

Redd Foxx: Upon his death, Redd Foxx had virtually no assets yet owed the IRS $3.6 million in taxes. Furthermore, his executor was not able to track his royalties and other income, further complicating the settlement of his estate.

People’s Oral History Project

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.

—Margaret Mead

The People’s Oral History Project is a program of the Monterey Peace & Justice Center—a mammoth story collecting effort by three activists to preserve the history of social activism in Monterey County since 1934. Gary Karnes, Karen Araujo, and Juan Martinez are interviewing 60 individuals who stood up, got arrested, joined others to loudly call for a more just world: local risk-takers, trouble-makers, community and union organizers, activists, plus musicians and artists from across the Monterey Peninsula and the Salinas Valley. A book of these interviews, published

by Park Place Publications, will be available Summer 2015.

Tactics of a Seasoned Activist

I interviewed Gary Karnes, the man behind the project, in his Pacific Grove home, which he shares with his partner and social activist, Heidi Feldman. We sat at the kitchen table on a sunny Sunday morning, surrounded by files stuffed with leaflets and other memorabilia about campaigns and the people who led them. Gary knows his subject well, having been an activist since age 13, when he volunteered for the John F. Kennedy campaign in 1960 in Vallejo, CA. Patricia: When did you first become an activist and was there a defining moment in your life that precipitated your nearly six decades of hands-on activism in Monterey County?

Gary: I can’t remember any defining moment. I’ve always read books on history and if there was a show on TV about history I always watched it. There were a lot of young Democrats in Vallejo when I volunteered for the Kennedy campaign. I sat around a table with older high school kids to stuff envelopes. I was sent into neighborhoods to knock on doors and hand out literature. One day I had my hand slammed in a door by a voter who wanted to avoid taking our literature and it really made me stop and think, “Hey, I’m just a kid, an adult really hurt me, this isn’t working.” That caused me to back off somewhat but when I entered UC Santa Cruz in 1967, there was a lot of consciousness-raising necessary: anti-Vietnam War, anti-draft, women’s liberation, civil rights, the Native Americans were occupying Alcatraz.

As a student I had time to reflect on the issues and by then I was already aware that history as recorded and taught was either

partially presented or patently false. In 1970, I refused induction into the army.

Patricia: How did you learn to be a community organizer?

Gary: From the groundbreaking work of Saul Alinsky, who developed modern methods of community organizing. I began to learn how to find and contact decision-making people, mobilize people and gradually I became known as the point man for activist information.

Patricia: Please tell me about some of your campaigns and successful tactics you’ve used.

Gary: I worked for legislation to eliminate the use of a variety of pesticides, which are known to cause birth defects and cancer, around residential areas and schools. We’ve been partially successful.

Signs must now be posted at all entrances and exits to fields where pesticides had been used. In the past farm workers entering foggy fields in the early dawn would begin vomiting and have to be taken to the hospital. This happened many times, with busloads of farmworkers.

In 1979 I worked on Fair Housing issues, to break open housing availability for people of color and families with children.

We trained people to answer want ads for housing. White, Latino and black couples would apply and report back about their reception. Often the black and Latino couples would be told the rental was taken, immediately after a white couple would be given an application.

Landlords often denied housing to people with children. We had to get individuals to lobby Senator Henry Mello for pending legislation, so we put an ad in the newspaper rental want ads: “Having problems renting because you have children?

Call this number –.” We printed Senator Mello’s number. He was in a position to pass the anti-discrimination law to make it illegal to deny a rental because of children. Later, when we visited his office to speak with him, the receptionist asked if we were the ones who placed that ad. We answered yes and she said, “We received many, many calls. I’m going to tell Henry that there’s a big problem with this.” The law was passed with Mello’s vote.

Today’s methods of reaching decision makers are a little different. Last year, as a member of the Civil Rights Coalition for Jail Reform, I posted a notice on Sheriff Miller’s Facebook page, asking him to review the jail policy of putting inmates in chains and shackles for family visits. We thought it was too punitive. When you’re shackled it’s very uncomfortable and almost impossible to hold a telephone, not to mention very demeaning. Miller modified

Scene 65: Alice, the Devoted Grandmother Bernard Furman

Marriage Can Be Funny Harry is seated in the Wilsons’ living room. Alice enters.

Alice: Hi, sweets.

Harry: Welcome home, stranger! It’s been so long since I’ve seen you, I’m not sure I recollect your name. Does it begin with an “X” as in “Ex-Mommy” and“ExWife?”

A: I gather you’re referring to my frequent absences?

H: Good guess.

A: Don’t complain. I’m helping the new mothers, Jane and Emily, with your grandchildren.

H: Far be it from me to complain. I’m only voicing the feelings of Max and Gracie, who feel abandoned by their foster mother. In fact, I was barely able to dissuade Max from calling the SPCA to file a charge of cat neglect. How are the girls and babies?

A: They’re all doing well, thank God. I went with Emily today to the pediatrician for her baby’s first examination, and he passed with flying colors.

H: You’re talking about my grandson, William Wyatt Wilson?

A: That’s the one.

H: How did they come up with that name, anyway?

A: Emily chose “William” in honor of her deceased maternal grandfather, of whom she was very fond; and Richard opted for the middle name because of his admiration for Wyatt Earp.

H: And Jane’s baby girl?

A: I’m not certain of Jane and Andy’s reason for selecting “Gwen Ellen.” I think it was just that they liked the way it sounded.

H: Sounds like a winery to me. Seriously, why is it necessary that you spend so much time with Emily and Jane? For the past few weeks you’ve been at the home of one of them every day.

A: It’s been less than a month since each gave birth. Emily had a nurse for the first two weeks, and since then has been on her own and I’m trying to make the transition easier for her. Jane has the new baby as well as a little boy who is hyperactive….

H: As we well know….

Hartnell presents pianist Francesco Attesti: Master class offered as well

Hartnell College is pleased to announce the return of Italian pianist Francesco Attesti and organist Matteo Galli who will perform on the Mainstage in The Performing Arts Center on Friday, February 20.

A: …. and no one to help her, so I’m taking some of the load off her shoulders by doing the laundry, the grocery shopping, and so on.

H: Would I be out of order to ask how long this is going to continue? Max and Gracie are not the only ones who miss you. I do, too.

A: Not long. I’m sure that in another week or two things will have settled down, and we can resume our normal routine.

H: The sooner the better, or I’ll join Max in complaining of neglect.

(There’s a pause in the conversation, as Harry is obviously in deep thought.)

H: When did it happen, Alice?

A: When did what happen?

H: This.

A: What this?

H: Our conversion from young to middle age. It seems like only yesterday that we were kids. Now, we not only have kids, but our kids have kids! We’re not only parents, but grandparents---not once, not twice, but three times over.

A: It’s called “life” Harry, and it goes on whether we’re aware of it or not.

H: I feel like Louis Jourdan in “Gigi,” when he comes to the realization that the little girl he enjoyed playing with has seemingly overnight become a grown woman. Where were we while all this was happening with our children?

A: We were here, and we lived through it with them.

H: It happened too fast. Every thing is happening too fast. If things don’t slow down, we’ll be in our dotage before we know it.

A: Picture yourself as being on a moving belt, such as they have in airports. It moves at a predetermined speed, and there’s nothing you can do about it. You can’t speed it up, you can’t slow it down.

H: I could get off.

A: But then you would cease to exist…

H: And I’m not ready for that.

A: I should hope not. ---So the only realistic course of action is to go with the flow, taking pleasure in everything good that you have. Enjoy your children, enjoy your grandchildren, enjoy Max the Cat and Gracie the Puppy, and of course, enjoy your wife. In other words, “Gather ye rosebuds while ye may.”

H: I’m always ready to enjoy my wife. She’s one of my favorite people.

A: Still so, after all the years we’ve been together?

H: Absolutely, although I must admit that sometimes I’m surprised that I’m in love with a grandmother!

A: Just as I have to come to terms with the fact that my lover is a granddad.

H: I think it’s time for us to go to bed. Lean on me, old girl, and I’ll help you up the stairs.

Basketball: Breakers Win Again

Pacific Grove

Boys -

Pacific Grove moved to 8-1 in league play after defeating King City 52-38 on Wednesday night [02-04-15].

The Breakers have now won five straight games since losing to Monterey on January 17.

Brad Sendell and Erol Ersok combined for 29 points in the Breakers victory, and will now look to get some revenge on Carmel, who gave the Breakers their last league loss. Pacific Grove and Carmel are both tied at 8-1 in the MTAL, making this a crucial game. The winner will most likely win the MTAL this season.

Pacific Grove (13-5, 8-1) will next play at home against Carmel (12-7, 8-1) on Friday, February 6, 2015 at 7:30 p.m.

Girls -

The Breakers have rattled off six straight wins since they were beat by Carmel on January 14. They continued their win streak by defeating King City 60-23 on Wednesday night [02-04-15].

Very similarly to the boys, the girls will look to grab some revenge the against the visiting Padres. The Padres are 9-0 in league play, while the Breakers are 7-2, so this game is very important for the Breakers if they have any hope of repeating as MTAL champs.

Jessica Matthews led the Breakers with 14 points and 8 rebounds, while Allie Patton added 12 points and 10 rebounds in the victory.

Pacific Grove (13-6, 7-2) will next play at home against Carmel (14-2, 9-0) on Friday, February 6, 2015 at 6:00 p.m.

Breakers Keep Streak Going With Their Fourth Straight Win

By Jon Charron

Pacific Grove used a 21-0 run in the first quarter to help them blow out the Greenfield Bruins 59-16 on Friday night [01-30-15].

In their last two games, the Breakers have only given up a combined 41 points. “We tried to get better and we tried to clarify some principles,” coach Dan Powers said of his teams’ defensive prowess over the last two games. According to Powers, the most important part of the improvement is that “the team is taking pride” on the defensive side. #30 John Buttrey puts pressure on the Greenfield ball handler. #30 John Buttrey puts pressure on the Greenfield ball handler.

Unlike the beginning of the season, when the Breakers lived and died by the scoring of Brad Sendell, the Breakers have had a more balanced team of late. In their last two games, they have had eleven different players chip in on the score board. Ball movement was key for the Breakers, as they used multiple passes on many occasions to find the open man.

Midway through the second quarter with the Breakers leading 31-6, Zack Miller helped lead the way for the play of the game. Miller raced down the court after a Greenfield steal and blocked the shot, which led to a Noah Dalhamer basket on the opposite end.

With most of the starters done for the night, the Breakers continued to keep their feet on the gas as they grew their lead to 38, at the end of the third quarter.

“It was good to get home and get two good wins,” coach Powers said. Adding, “We got a big week next week.”

The Breakers do have a big week ahead, as they will travel to King City on Wednesday, and then come back home for a rematch with Carmel. A game that could very well decide the MTAL championship.

Josh Wren led the Breakers with 10 points, while Chip Wagner added 8 points and 6 rebounds in the victory.

Pacific Grove (12-5, 7-1) will next play at King City (8-9, 4-3) on Wednesday, February 4, 2015 at 7:00 p.m.

Last time these two teams met, Pacific Grove edged King City in overtime 63-54.

Celebration of the Life of Mike Ottmar John Miller, former recreation director for the City of Pacific Grove who now lives in Oklahoma, was one of the speakers at the celebration of the life of Mike Ottmar, held on Saturday, Jan. 31.

Close to 400 people attended the gathering at Pacific Grove High School.

Ottmar, who died on Jan. 24, was in education for 35 years and was a coach for 40 years.

He taught math and physical education, and later became assistant principal at Pacific Grove High School and principal at Pacific Grove Middle School.

He was ssistant uperintendent for finances at the Pacific Grove Unified school district, and later served as assistant superintendent for business services at the Monterey County of Education. He also taught at Chapman College.

I just returned from PGA teaching seminar for two days. As PGA pros, all of us there (about 180 of us) were learning from guest speakers from all over the country. They were there speaking to us to help us teach better. I always learn so much and what I always take away is: Keep it simple. A teaching pro needs to keep it simple, giving the correct information to our students. I often see many swing flaws in a student’s swing but I can only fix one at a time. Be careful of too much information. As golfers we get a lot of information from magazines, the golf channel and our buddies.

If you want to improve, take a lesson from a PGA pro who is a professional, trained teacher. Find out what you need to work on with your golf game and keep it simple.
