briefly Two Ventura gang members arrested in Carpinteria manhunt

A Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department manhunt that took place throughout the west side of Carpinteria on the evening of Jan. 12 led to the arrest of two Ventura gang members who were wanted for residential burglary and auto theft.

At around 4 p.m., Sheriff’s deputies at the 7-Eleven on Via Real located a vehicle that had been reported stolen out of Ventura following a residential burglary last week. While deputies awaited backup, the two men associated with the car, 30-year-old Martin Trujillo and 35-year-old Anthony Gomez, came out of the convenience store and fled on foot.

Local deputies, a helicopter and two K-9 units searched the area for more than an hour for the suspects, and at around SUBMITTED PHOTOS 5:45 p.m. a resident in the 4500 block of Carpinteria Avenue called to report that two suspicious males had asked to use Martin Trujillo her phone. The suspects, both documented gang members from Ventura with warrants out for their arrest, were located shortly afterwards in the parking lot of the apartment complex. Trujillo was injured by one of the police dogs while being apprehended, and a deputy received minor injuries as well.

Trujillo was booked on charges of felony resisting with injury, possession of a stolen vehicle, possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia. Gomez was booked on charges of resisting arrest and possession of a stolen vehicle. Both men are also charged with a criminal gang enhancement.

Items from the residential burglary in Ventura, including a shotgun, were discovered inside the stolen vehicle. The Ventura Police Department is conducting an investigation Anthony Gomez and additional charges against the suspects are pending.

SUBMITTED PHOTOS

Taken during a recent robbery at the local iPower store, these images depict men suspected of several crimes throughout the area.

Apple burglars caught on camera

Since last October, numerous late night and early morning commercial burglaries have occurred in various cities throughout Ventura, Santa Barbara and Northern Los Angeles counties, including Carpinteria. The same suspects, who target commercial buildings and take primarily Apple computers and laptops, are believed to be responsible for the crimes. Ventura County Sheriff’s Office asks that anyone who can help in identifying the subjects in the photos above and at right, which were taken from video surveillance from one of the recent crimes, call Sgt. Jason Robarts at 947-8108 or email Jason.robarts@Ventura.org.

Carpinteria rainfall remains under average

The storm that arrived last weekend gently deposited 1.58 inches on Carpinteria, raising the city’s total to 5.99 inches for the water year, which started on Sept. 1.

Despite the recent precipitation, Carpinteria remains at 83 percent of its normal rainfall. Countywide, the numbers are more promising, at 102 percent of normal. Lake Cachuma, however, is still at only 28.4 percent of its full capacity.

DUGRÉ

A new modular Carpinteria State Park rangers office has been delivered, a sign of progress in the makeover and educational upgrade underway at the park.

State beach upgrades underway

Evidence of the expenditures of the $3 million Nature Education Grant awarded to Carpinteria State Beach recently began to take shape with the delivery of a new office for rangers near the amphitheater. Near to the new modular building, the park visitor center is being refurbished. Plans for that building include revamped tide pool educational exhibits and interpretive information about Carpinteria history and the Chumash people. Additionally, new signage will be installed throughout the park and a boardwalk on the beachside of the dunes will be constructed starting at Linden Avenue and eventually extended to Palm Avenue. The boardwalk should break ground at the beginning of February and new facilities are scheduled to open by summer.

Leidos keeps State Beach clean

The Carpinteria branch of technology company Leidos adopted the sand at Carpinteria State Beach and recently completed its third beach cleanup for 2014. As part of the California Coastal Commission’s Adopt-a-Beach program, Leidos provided the volunteer labor, and California State Parks provided trash bags, gloves and free parking.

“Park maintenance personnel do a great job of regularly cleaning Carpinteria State Beach,” said Stephen Bryne, community outreach coordinator for Leidos. “However, there is still plenty of trash to collect, so when we learned that our local beach was available for adoption, we contacted park personnel to make it happen. We want the beach to be clean for enjoyment and to prevent any of the trash from being ingested by seabirds, fish or marine mammals.”

Over the course of the 2014 clean-up efforts, Leidos volunteers collected a variety of refuse, trash, flotsam and jetsam. Plastic bottles, bottle caps, straws, Styrofoam, beach toys and cigarette butts were among the most common items. “Carpinteria State Beach is often billed as ‘America’s Safest Beach,” said David Wilson, Supervising State Park Ranger. “With the support of the Leidos volunteers, our desire is to make it one of America’s cleanest beaches as well. We hope 2015 will be a continuation of this momentum.”

Flu daze days for the health of it!

ALI JAVANBAKHT, MD

8:20 a.m.: I sat on the couch looking at the empty water glass before me. I needed to get more water. It was the right thing to do.

8:40 a.m.: I was still in that same pose, staring at the same glass, which was now completely empty, thinking I really, really should get more water. I spent the next half hour convincing myself that I was getting up. I’m getting up now. This is me getting up. Just gonna put both my feet on the ground, push myself off the couch and go get some more water.

An hour later, I was thinking that if I had gotten up when I first thought about it, I would have had two to three glasses of water by now. And thus passed the morning, sitting on the couch, huddled under a blanket, contemplating becoming better hydrated. That was day one of the flu.

The preceding night had been much more lively. I awoke in the middle of the night feeling colder than I have ever felt in my life. I started to shiver. This meant my brain thermostat was raised to fever level and my body was so desperate to generate heat that it was making my muscles shake despite the enormous cost in energy. It was time to reset the thermometer. The ibuprofen bottle rattled like a salsa music instrument in my shaking hand as it spat out three little pills into my other shaking hand. Fortunately, both hands were shaking at the same frequency so I didn’t end up with a scattered mess of ibuprofen pills on the floor.

An hour later, I was drenched, a sign that the medication had reset my brain thermostat to normal, and now my body was trying to get rid of all the excess heat it had spent the better part of the night generating.

For the following four days, going from the bedroom to the couch was an Olympic event requiring the mustering of all physical and mental resources available. Once the journey was complete, I would collapse on the couch, breathing hard with my heart racing. Of course, that’s when I would remember that I had left my glass of water in the bedroom. But by then it was too late. Hydration would have to wait.

The expression “being run over by a truck” is often used when describing the flu. I feel that is an accurate description,

provided the truck is actually a convoy of trucks and afterwards, one gets tossed into a cement mixer filled with bowling balls.

Interestingly enough, I had gotten my flu shot this year. Which meant that I was one of the rare few who didn’t get complete immunity from the vaccine. On the bright side, it also meant that I had a milder case of the flu than if I had not received the vaccine at all.

That is all a distant memory now, a story I shall repeatedly tell my grandchildren as they roll their eyes and groan (to which I’ll be oblivious because my eyesight will be diminished and my hearing will be gone.

In my mind I don’t age well.). It is, however, an experience I hope to never repeat.

Next year, as years before, I plan on being one of the first to get the flu shot. Because if this was the milder version, I shudder to think what the full force of the flu on an unvaccinated body would be.

To that end, come next fall, I will be campaigning harder than ever, to get every single person I know (and their houseplants) immunized. There’s nothing quite like a brush with the painful darkness that is the flu to give one renewed vigor to fight against it. As the flu season continues, here’s wishing that this is the closest any of you comes to getting the actual flu.

Land of the free?

Why are Americans not protesting loudly against the unconstitutional mandate that requires citizens to buy a commercial product from a for-profit company, namely insurance companies.

Worse yet, the IRS, the unconstitutional agency that collects illegal income taxes, has been assigned to keep your income tax refund if you do not purchase health insurance!

This is blatant totalitarianism, an authoritarian, autocratic centralized government that exercises total control over the freedom, will or thought of others.

For heaven’s sake, people, stop arguing as if the Democrats and Republicans are actually two parties and face the truth; they are one party who agreed to disagree for the purpose of fooling the American people into believing that they actually have a choice. All members of our gov-

ernment want total control over the mind and wallet of the American people! In 1992, after Ross Perot got 20 percent of the presidential vote, our government has taken steps to assure that no other authentic second party candidate is allowed in the presidential debates.

CUSD board appoints interim superintendent

Jeff Chancer was appointed to serve as interim superintendent of Carpinteria Unified School District at the Jan. 13 school board meeting. Chancer, who retired in 2013 after two years as the superintendent of Oxnard Elementary District, will begin at CUSD on Feb. 2. He was hired to take the helm while CUSD conducts a search for a superintendent to succeed Paul Cordeiro, whose last day will be Jan. 30.

Prior to working in Oxnard, Chancer served as Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services in the Ventura Unified School District for eight years, overseeing the district’s entire instructional program. “Jeff has the right combination of experience and interpersonal skills,” stated CUSD Board President Andy Sheaffer.

“He knows instruction. He is familiar with a school bond having passed one in Oxnard. He has experience in personnel. Equally important, Jeff is personable, approachable and good listener.”

The board will decide on a process for selecting a new superintendent at a special meeting scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 20 at 5:30 p.m. in the CUSD District Office.

Comet viewing at Westmont

With the help of Westmont College’s powerful Keck Telescope, stargazers will be able to view the Comet Lovejoy on Friday, Jan. 16, beginning at 6:30 p.m. and lasting several hours at the Westmont observatory. The Comet Lovejoy, C/2014 Q2, is making its closest approach to earth, 44 million miles away. “I’ve been watching it from our back yard for the last week and it’s a bright one,” says Thomas Whittemore, Westmont physics instructor. “It’s almost a naked-eye object at this point, and at the public viewing, there will be no moon to interfere with the comet’s brightness. I have yet to see a tail on Lovejoy, but maybe we will get lucky with Westmont’s 8-inch refractor telescope.”

The Keck Telescope is housed in the observatory between russell Carr Field and the track and field/soccer complex. Free parking is available near the baseball field. In case of inclement or overcast weather, call the Telescope Viewing hotline at 565-6272 and check the Westmont website to see if the viewing has been canceled.

Students at Canalino School now line up for lunch after leaving the playground.

Canalino implements recess before lunch

When bells rang on the Canalino School campus following the three-week winter break, they chimed a different schedule: first recess and then lunch. The newly implemented recess-before-lunch schedule is designed to have children work up an appetite and align with the school’s heath and wellness goals. Principal Jamie Persoon reported that far less food hit the compost bins than usual on the first day of implementation.

Also, the schedule adjustment is aimed at improving behavior and performance in classrooms owing to students consuming more nutrients.

City Council extends home down payment loan program

BY DALE MYERS

In a unanimous decision, the Carpinteria City Council in its Jan. 12 meeting voted to extend for two years the agreement between the City of Carpinteria and the Housing Trust Fund of Santa Barbara County for implementation of the Workforce Homebuyer Down Payment Loan Program. The loan program is aimed at low- and moderate-income families wherein qualifying families are lent a portion of their home down payment with the commitment that it will be paid back in full 30 years later or upon the sale, refinance or failure to occupy the residence.

“The city can support six to eight loans, and we’ve granted two so far,” said Jackie Campbell, Community Development Director for the City of Carpinteria. “We see good things ahead for this program.”

Grants are given to those purchasing homes located within Carpinteria who can qualify for loans but cannot afford to make a down payment. To qualify, borrowers cannot have owned a home in the past three years and must have a combined household income that does not exceed 200 percent of the area median income.

Borrowers must be a resident of or work in Santa Barbara County and be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien. Eligible homes within Carpinteria include single family, duplexes, condos, town homes and mobile homes with individual deeds that are ready for occupancy with no building or health and safety code violations.

In other business, the council received a report from Southern California Gas Company personnel on hydrostatic testing of high-pressure natural-gas pipelines. The pipeline safety-enhancement project will test 8.5 miles of pipeline from Summerland to Carpinteria. Work will begin in mid-March and last eight to 10 weeks.

“Hydro-testing utilizes water to assess the integrity of pipelines,” said Tim Mahoney, public affairs manager for the Southern California Gas Company. “We will only be testing transmission lines.

The safety of our customers and communities is a top priority.”

In testing areas, the public can expect traffic rerouting and delays, large trucks and equipment, work-related noise and possible excavation dust. The Gas Company will send letters to customers near construction areas along the hydro-test routes two weeks prior to testing. Additionally, it will distribute door hangers two to three days before construction

The loan program is aimed at lowand moderateincome families wherein qualifying families are lent a portion of their home down payment with the commitment that it will be paid back in full 30 years later or upon the sale, refinance or failure to occupy the residence. mobilization. The pipeline, which runs down Carpinteria Avenue, will only be excavated in the city on Venoco property.

“No one will lose gas,” stressed Mahoney.

“All gas service will be the same.”

For more information on affected areas during the testing timeframe, the public is encouraged to visit the Southern California Gas Company website at socalgas. com and search “safety” and click “What pipeline testing or replacement activity is happening in my neighborhood?” or call 1-800-427-2000.

The council also took time to honor outstanding volunteer service to the Carpinteria community as exhibited by Lee Heller, who assists with the animal services program and foster-cares several dogs. Additionally, the council presented employee service awards to Director of Public Works Charlie Ebeling for five years of service, maintenance worker John Keiser for 10, City Manager Dave Durflinger for 15 and Kevin Silk, assistant to the city manager, for his 20 years of service.

The next City Council meeting will take place on Monday, Jan. 26, at 5:30 p.m. in the Council Chamber at City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Ave.

The following counts taken from Jan. 1 to 11 were compiled from Carpinteria Seal Watch volunteer reports. Carpinteria harbor seal beach closure runs from Dec. 1 to June 1 each year. Seal Watch volunteers are still welcome to sign up by calling 684-2247.

High Adult Count

Visitors

166

High Pup Count

1 born in December, deceased.

The first 11 days of January saw 2,272 visitors counted by Seal Watch volunteers. People came from Canada, Columbia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Russia, Germany, Romania, China, Belgium, Kansas, New York, Colorado, West Virginia, Washington, Wyoming, Wisconsin, Arizona, Maryland, Texas, Mississippi, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Idaho, Ohio, North Carolina and Minnesota. A sea lion also joined the harbor seals for a couple days.

Disturbances

Beach walkers scared the seals into the ocean five times. Oil industry activity was responsible for two disturbances, and a paddleboarder and snorkler caused two more scares.

Natural History Notes

` Harbor seals rest onshore about 50 percent of the time, and are loyal to few haul out and rookery locations. Carpinteria hosts one of five rookeries on the southern mainland coast and, along with La Jolla, is unique in providing an opportunity for the public to easily observe the seals. If disturbed, harbor seals flee to the ocean and often will not return for hours. Repeated disturbances can lead to abandonment of a site, as happened at Goleta Beach and may be happening at Ellwood. Last year there were 56 documented disturbances caused by oil industry activities, and 30 by beach walkers; though the former were more frequent, beach walkers typically cause more or all seals to flee.

More Info

The Carpinteria harbor seal rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach. Please remember not to bring dogs, bicycles or loud voices to view the seals. Harbor seals, when disturbed, may flee and become separated from their pups. Volunteers ask that dogs remain outside the rope area at all times. Call 684-2247 or email sealwatch@ hotmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.

Halos Pitchforks

Title IX— a mixed blessing? a monthly muse MELINDA WITTWER Back in the dark ages of the ’60s, I went to a small high school in the San Joaquin Valley. At that time and at that school there were only three sports that allowed females to compete on a varsity team—swimming, track and tennis. No basketball, no volleyball, no gymnastics, no soccer, no golf and, no, not even softball. Certainly sounds medieval, limiting, prejudicial and unfair. It was all of these.

Then Title IX was passed and suddenly high schools and colleges were scrambling to put together athletic programs for their female students. It was the funding ultimatum—develop sports for women or lose federal money. Scholarships became available. Access to gyms, pools and equipment opened up. Coaches were hired, uniforms purchased and competition schedules arranged.

Sounds almost perfect, doesn’t it? But education experts come and go. The pendulum of what’s “in” swings back and forth, generally wiping out everything in its path. And we rarely learn not to toss the baby out with the bath water. So what could possibly be good about those old days, those pre-Title IX days, that I would want to keep?

First and foremost: class size. My PE classes in high school rarely had more than 25 students. Today’s classes often hold 50 or more. How can one teacher safely monitor two soccer fields or three baseball diamonds or four volleyball courts?

Second: even though I went to tennis practice every day after school during the spring, I also had a regular PE class every day—for four years. There were no exceptions for jocks or surfers or hikers or meditators. In most high schools today, students are required to complete only two years of PE, and athletes are excused from most of these classes. So consider

this: classes packed with 50 teens, limited funds for equipment, many excused students and only two years of physical activity required. And we wonder why there is a problem with obesity?

Third: while doing PE, I was exposed to the usual basketball, volleyball, softball, swimming and tennis. Also, we did trampoline, archery, soccer, flag football and dance; and remember, this was a small, rural high school, not a private academy. And for each sport we had to learn the rules and the strategies of play in order to pass a written exam. Because of this exposure, I enjoy playing and watching many sports today. I can shoot hoops with my sons, play catch, serve and volley in tennis (My backhand is my best shot.) and set a volleyball. Also I can swim well enough not to drown and enjoy watching soccer. Don’t let me near a bow and arrow.

The point here is that Title IX made scholarships available for gifted athletes.

To be chosen, these young women had to excel so they focused at a young age on one sport and excluded everything else.

I’ve had younger women tell me they couldn’t play in a group softball game or a social volleyball competition because they didn’t do these sports. They did only golf or only track or only gymnastics. By giving opportunity to a few, it seems that a broad enjoyment of recreational sports is being limited at a time when all of us need to make exercise a regular part of our lives.

Of course we want to keep the benefits Title IX provides our young women, but we also need to recapture what was good about the past—that’s why we study history. Keep the size of high school PE classes down to a reasonable number (PE is not a holding pen), require four years of high school PE with very limited exclusions (staying in shape can’t help but positively affect future health-care costs) and teach a varied selection of sports and recreational activities to encourage all women to be life-long athletes.

Melinda Wittwer first moved to Carpinteria in 1972 and taught mostly junior high students in Oxnard during her 25-year career.

Now retired, she enjoys pottery, writing, books and travel.

100 years and counting

Carpinteria Masons look to rebound membership

By Lea Boyd

Well funded but undermanned: this unlikely scenario marks the Carpinteria Masonic Lodge’s first step into its second century. The local fraternity, which has suffered decades of declining membership alongside most Masonic Lodges across the nation, is looking for an infusion of new members to not only uphold the proud legacy of the Carpinteria chapter, but also to keep the funds it generates through rental income in the Carpinteria community.

“Whatever it takes to keep this lodge going, we’ll do it,” said Maurice Sourmany, a member of the local group since 1980 and two-time past master (the Masonic equivalent of club president).

Sourmany’s fear, which is shared by his fellow Carpinteria Masons, is that the local group’s membership will decline to a point where the state organization decides to absorb the lodge and its assets.

The club’s membership peaked a few decades ago at around 150, Sourmany said.

Current membership is 68.

The lodge owns its meeting place, the Masonic Temple at 5421 Carpinteria Ave., as well as the adjacent commercial spaces, now occupied by the Carpinteria Post Office and Carpinteria Athletics. It also owns a nearby residential rental. Income from these rentals has allowed for generous donations to various local efforts: Relay for Life, Carpinteria Movies in the Park, Franklin Trail, Carpinteria High School Culinary Arts Kitchen, Masonic Student of the Month program, annual scholarships for CHS seniors and the Carpinteria Middle School spelling bee.

Last fall, members of the Carpinteria Lodge celebrated the organization’s 100year anniversary. While they paid homage to the lodge’s past, members were careful to keep their eyes on the future.

One strategy in place to attract new members is to drop the cloak of secrecy

Carpinteria Masonic Lodge Master Myron Shann, pictured left, accepts a gift from the Grandmaster of California Masons Russell Charvonia at the celebration of the lodge’s 100th anniversary on Nov. 22, 2014. that has defined the organization for so long, due, in part, to popular movies like “National treasure.” In 2005, the national Masonic Service Association produced a report called “It’s About time,” in which lodges were encouraged to invite the community in to dispel popular myths about Freemasonry. Carpinterians are welcome to tour the local lodge and get a better understanding of what the organization involves and where it operates.

Most of the lodge’s members are baby boomers and older; they represent generations less likely to be social media savvy. Nonetheless, the Carpinteria Lodge now has its own facebook page, and its members recognize that they must have an active internet presence to remain relevant and visible.

Sourmany said the lodge is “trying to make up for lost ground” and is changing in the face of a changing world. Formality

has eased at meetings. Tuxes were once expected, but “California casual” has become perfectly acceptable, he noted.

John Risdon, a third generation Carpinteria Mason, said that the advantages of being a Mason are just as relevant today as they were hundreds of years ago when the organization began. The organization has given him “a sense of a bigger family, and a sense of connection to the whole human body,” he said.

The Carpinteria Masonic Lodge proudly laid the northeast cornerstone at the new Canalino School in 1954. The symbol is meant to ensure a Masonic tone at the foundation of the institution. Masonic cornerstones were also laid at Carpinteria High School (now Carpinteria Middle School) in 1930, Main School (now Carpinteria Children’s Project) in 1938 and Carpinteria High School in 1962.

The principle tenets of Freemasonry are “chastity, relief and truth,” and the Masonic symbols offer rules to live by.

Risdon said, “It has a strong grip on you, being a mason.”

Sourmany pointed to changing dynamics of modern families for some reduction in Masonic membership. Fathers are more involved in the rearing of children these days, and many households rely on two working parents. Commitments outside of the house can be difficult, he noted, including a monthly evening meeting at the Masonic Lodge.

Both Sourmany and Risdon are optimistic about the lodge’s future, however.

Increasing openness and visibility have resulted in several new, young members.

And the key, Risdon said, will be maintaining the quality of members, not just quantity.

The lodge is seeking men of good character with good family values and a belief in a supreme being. “To be one, ask one,” is the motto for new members.

Anyone interested in becoming a Mason can call 684-4433 to learn more.

Masonic history spans 100 years in Carpinteria The Carpinteria Masonic Lodge’s long history began on the second floor of the Knights of Pythias building on Linden Avenue at 9th Street. Charter members Guy Bliss, Charles Anderson, Westley Hickey, James Deaderick, Amos Olney, Jerome Tubbs, Henry Fish, DeWitt Humphrey, Mads Christensen, Tom Fish, Glenn Hickey, Floyd Hickey, John Ogan and George Senteney held their first meeting on Dec. 13, 1913, and the charter was granted officially on Oct. 14, 1914.

In 1925, the young lodge and its growing membership purchased the upstairs portion of the building for $2,600 and then acquired the downstairs in 1928 for $6,000. The Great Depression arrived soon after, and the lodge struggled to make mortgage payments on the property. Then, to make matters worse, a large earthquake rocked through town on June 13, 1941, severely damaging the building and making the second floor unusable. Temporarily, the lodge held its meetings at the Veteran’s Memorial Hall.

Repairs were made to the building, but finances remained dangerously tight for the Masons. In September of 1941, however, Security First National Bank accepted a $4,000 check from the group for full payment of the lodge’s $12,900 mortgage.

By 1965, the lodge had outgrown the Linden Avenue location and purchased the post office building located on Carpinteria Avenue. The Masons paid off their mortgage on this building in 1982, and 2014 marked the 100th anniversary of the local lodge, and the 50th year in the current temple.

Morning Rotary gets inside scoop on Rose Parade float

Carpinteria City Councilman Wade Nomura, who served as the 2014 Rotary Rose parade Float Committee Chair, presented to the Rotary Club of Carpinteria morning on how the Rotary Rose parade Float is developed, built and funded.

“Our float takes 1,100 volunteers and over 6,000 hours to build, and costs $135,000.

The reason we do the float is to bring awareness of what Rotary does to an international audience,” Nomura said. the float is viewed by 800,000 parade viewers along the parade route, 40 million u.S. tV viewers, and over 70 million viewers from 220 countries worldwide. The float is a lengthy project, and planning is already underway for the 2016 float. Wade’s wife, Roxanne Nomura, was also featured this year as a rider on the float.

Warrior soccer takes on Bishop January 15 - 21, 2015

Warriors down Bishop 63-58 in league opener

BY ALONZO OROZCO

Coming into the Jan. 9 showdown at rival Bishop Diego High School, the 6-6 Carpinteria High School boys basketball team anticipated a challenging TVL opener. “I was excited for this game, I think for the whole week. I watched the girls team on Monday and was kind of nervous watching them,” said Carpinteria guard Omar Miranda.

But, led by Miranda’s cool, game-high 26 points, the Warriors calmly held off a fourth quarter surge by the Cardinals in collecting their first league win by a score of 63-58.

It was apparent from the opening tap that Carpinteria center Mason Picerni would also make a huge impact, policing the paint, blocking Cardinal shots and cleaning the glass. “I told him (Picerni), go and just put your hands straight up, you’re so long and gifted athletically that you’re going to deflect a few shots without having to leave your feet,” said Carpinteria coach Johnny Ward, who played basketball at Bishop, where he gradu- Warrior center Mason Picerni climbs above Bishop’s Abel BILL SWING PHOTOS ated in 2006.

Schuyler links CHS to “Unbroken”

Lou Panizzon dug deep into newspaper archives to discover an article from the Torrance Herald in 1934 describing a record-breaking day for Carpinteria High School track and field runner Dale Schuyler. The opening line of the story was “Only two things marred the day for Louis Zamperini last Saturday... (the second being) the breaking of his own S.C. record for the class B 1330.” Zamperini, who later would become the heroic subject of the 2014 war drama “Unbroken,” had his 3:17.7 mark outpaced by Schuyler’s 3:15.5.

Schuyler, a member of the Carpinteria High School Athletics Hall of Fame, ran the mile in 4:28.7, the second best in the state at the time. Zamperini would later compete in the Olympics, and survive on a raft for 47 days after his bomber was downed in World War II before being rescued and detained as a prisoner of war.

Cate School

Jan. 6 – On its second day back from winter break, Cate girls basketball ran out to a 14-0 first quarter and 41-28 victory over visiting Grace Brethren High School. Elan Halpern scored 16 points; Brittany Newsome had six, and Miriam Weiss and Amber Thiery had five apiece. “Every girl on the team played hard and was an asset,” commented coach Amy Venditta. Charlotte Pecot and Mikaela Li accounted for forcing five first-quarter turnovers to set the pace for the Rams.

Jan. 8 – At Fillmore High School, Cate girls basketball fell 41-36. The Rams trailed 14-2 to start the contest and fought to get back into it throughout. “Had the game been five minutes longer, the result just may have been different,” commented coach Amy Venditta. Elan Halpern led the way for the Rams with 24 points while forcing more than 10 turnovers. Delaney Mayfield had six points total and played tough defense in the post, forcing multiple turnovers and grabbing rebounds, according to Venditta. The Rams won the fourth quarter 14-4.

Boys basketball

Jan. 7 – Hosting Grace Brethren, Cate boys basketball suffered a 67-54 loss to open the Frontier League season. Coach Bryan Rodriguez attributed the loss to ineffective rebounding and defense. The Rams led 12-6 after an uptempo first quarter. Nick Thomas had 18 points for the Rams. The Lancers’ nine 3-pointers led to a swing in control of the game. Kian O’Connor had 15 points, and Marko Pliso had 16.

Girls water polo

Jan. 9 – Cate girls water polo picked up an 18-6 victory at Villanova Prep. Senior Olivia Cannell scored seven goals, and Anna Satterfield had four. Isabella Wang and Ally Satterfield scored three goals apiece. Emily Sanborn had a goal in the fourth, and senior co-captain Bella Shealy kept things in control between the posts with seven stops.

Girls soccer

Jan. 10 – At Grace Brethren, Cate girls soccer played a physical, tight game but suffered a 1-0 loss to the third-ranked opponent. Goalie Emma Liberman almost single-handedly kept the game close by recording 25 saves. Coach Lisa Holmes also singled out the efforts of the back line—Lucia Johnson, Sumner Matthews, Taylor Bigony and Sophie Johnson—who, Holmes said, “used every last drop of energy they had stored up over vacation, and when that was gone, they played on heart and brains.” Grace Brethren broke through with a goal with 10 minutes remaining to win the match. Encouraged by the tight game, Holmes commented that the Rams eagerly await another shot at the Frontier League top dog.

Boys soccer

Jan. 8 – Cate boys soccer closed its non-league schedule with a 4-0 victory over visiting Foothill Tech on Jan. 8. Geoffrey Acheampong opened the scoring with an unassisted left-footed bending shot from about 22 yards out in the ninth minute of the game. Minutes later, Acheampong chipped the Foothill keeper on a breakaway to make it 2-0 Rams. Then, in the 30th minute, Iman Fardghassemi turned the right corner and lined a ball into the near post that Patrick Prestridge scrambled to finish.

The second half found the Rams sitting back defensively much of the time, allowing Foothill too much time on the ball in the midfield. Consequently, all four of Foothill’s shots on goal in the game came during the second half of play. Still, the Rams countered in the 72nd minute, when Acheampong completed his hat trick on a through ball from Djata Nyaawie that he neatly tucked into the far left lower corner. Coach Pete Mack was cautious after the victory, stating, “Despite the convincing win, we never really found our groove on either side of the ball.”

Boys soccer

Carpinteria High School

Jan. 6 – Warrior soccer finished in a 1-1 tie at Dos Pueblos High School against what coach Leo Quintero referred to as “a stubborn DP squad.” The teams played a 0-0 first half, but DP struck with a goal five minutes into the second half. The Warriors hit the equalizer on set piece set up by Benjie Garcia. After a few bumps and bounces, Eric Contreras directed a header into the net. Edward Delgado made three saves to preserve the tie. “Our whole team from front to back stepped up once again in an even attack offensively and defensively,” commented Quintero.

Jan. 8 – Warrior boys soccer saved its best preseason performance for last in a 2-0 victory at Buena High School. Christian Chacon opened up the scoring on a cross

by Francisco Arroyo in the 21st minute. In the 35th minute, Oscar Trujillo fed Diego Contreras, who lobbed it over the Buena goalkeeper. Lalo Delgado completed three saves for his second shutout and to complete a three-game run in which he allowed only a single score. “Team chemistry has been building one day at a time, one practice at a time, one game at a time,” commented coach Leo Quintero. The Warriors, 2-2-1, will have opened the season at home against Bishop Diego High School on Jan. 14.

Girls soccer

Jan. 6 – Warrior girls soccer opened its Frontier League season with a 3-1 home loss against Foothill Tech. “We played fine and for the most part it was an equal game but we just gave up a few soft goals and we missed a few good chances,” commented coach Charles Bryant. The Warriors trailed 2-0 at halftime, and Giselle Estrada scored in the second half to keep the game alive before the Warriors ran out of steam.

Jan. 8 – Hosting Thacher School, Warrior girls soccer notched its first Frontier League victory of the season. In the 2-0 victory, the Warriors played to a 0-0 stalemate until 15 minutes remained and Kelsie Bryant fed the ball to Jenny Alaniz, who slotted it home. About five minutes later, Lesly Zapata fed Natalie Saito who carried the ball to the touchline before sending a cross to Bryant, who headed it into the corner.

“Every ball was contested and although we were the stronger team the game just had that feel that Thacher might just get a counter attack goal or the game might end in a draw,” commented coach Charles Bryant.

Jan. 10 – Warrior girls soccer suffered a 2-1 loss to Frontier League-favorite Grace Brethren High School. Jessica Meza put the Warriors on the board quickly when Alejandra Alvarez found her with a cross on her well-timed run. Grace tied the score with a header before halftime and scored the go-ahead at about the 60th minute. The Warriors mounted a spirited comeback bid, but on two occasions, would-be goals off the foot of Kelsie Bryant were called off. Coach Charles Bryant commended the play of goalkeeper Laura Valdez who made numerous saves in wet conditions. “Each of the players played well for spurts, but we just did not sustain it enough or have enough players playing well at the same time to do anymore damage,” Charles said.

The team’s Frontier League record fell to 1-2 after the loss.

Tori Kelley led the Warriors with 15 points and eights steals; Diaz had eight points; Harmony Reed had six points, 12 rebounds and three assists. The Warriors start the Frontier League season at 0-2 after two three-point losses. Coach Dan Mercer was positive about the performances and notes the team’s busy league schedule will be home heavy in the final weeks.

Christmas Bird Count tallies 150 species Early on Dec. 27, 70 birdwatchers set out to explore the Carpinteria area in search of as many of Carpinteria’s 200-plus species as they could find. They were not disappointed.

Each year, for more than 100 years, members of the National Audubon Society organize an annual Christmas Bird Count (CBC) that has grown to include 2,500 groups, each birding in 15-mile circles in North and South America and the Caribbean. Through these efforts on the part of “citizen scientists” throughout the western hemisphere, Audubon is able to observe the dynamics of bird populations and to understand changes over time in ranges and population density, information critical to protecting birds and their breeding and wintering habitats as well as understanding migration and other life patterns.

Carpinteria’s Christmas Bird Count has been going on since 2009, when local resident Rob Denholtz organized the first. During that seminal event 149 species were located and recorded. This year’s total was 157 species, in an area running from Mussel Shoals to Fernald Point and from Jameson Lake to about two miles off-shore. There were some surprises this year. An American white pelican, normally an inland bird preferring fresh water, showed up in the Carpinteria Salt Marsh Nature Park—the first one ever recorded in the marsh. This year saw an irruption of varied thrush into coastal California. Normally a scarce species, more common inland and at higher elevations, their migration into the area resulted in 27 found in the Carpinteria count circle. A major disappointment was that Carpinteria’s iconic gray hawk, which has returned for its third winter here, did not show up on Count Day.

noon movie screenings. And, once a month, birthdays are celebrated in the clubhouse, a venue that can be booked for resident events as well.

Hayley Pettigrew was hired in late 2014 as the assistant community manager, and she has quickly become another well respected member of the Shepard Place team.

Having moved from Thousand Oaks, where she also worked in property management, Pettigrew said that Shepard Place’s welcoming environment has made her feel at home quickly. Residents are kind and compassionate; they look out for one another and seem to genuinely care about each other and the staff.

“At the end of the day, it comes down to what your site staff is willing to invest,” said Jim Carrillo, Towbes Group Vice President of Residential Properties. “We feel really fortunate to have the team we have here.”

The apartment complex was built in 1979, at the same time as Shepard Place Shops, and has been owned by Towbes ever since. Several of the residents have lived at Shepard Place for over 20 years, and two current residents moved in when the complex first opened its doors 36 years ago.

Hernandez and Pettigrew both commended the Towbes Group for supporting their involvement in the community of Carpinteria. Braille Institute programs are hosted at the complex, and the offices of HELP of Carpinteria, a free transportation program that serves many residents of Shepard Place, are housed on site.

The business’ success is evident not only in its happy customers—the 200 wellcared-for residents—but also in its demand. Hernandez said that the current waitlist for an apartment contains about 20 names.

is a big part of the fun, Karen and Alan say. They travel to the East Coast where attics and basements hold all kinds of potential, and any excursion from their home can become a discovery mission. “Don’t drive anywhere with us,” Karen laughingly warned. “U Turn! U Turn!”

They started simply as collectors. Alan loved antique cameras, and Karen’s collections ranged from bowls to watering cans to anything with a bird on it. They filled their home with interesting and eclectic items and then arrived at a crossroads. “We had to either stop looking for things—which was pretty much out of the question—or we needed to start selling things.”

Fortunately for Carpinteria, they opted for the latter. Since opening their stores— they added the second shop in 2008—the Clarks have become regular donors to local causes. In 2011, they went through the painstaking process of eco-improving the Linden store and becoming the first Santa Barbara County certified green business in Carpinteria. Karen also served on the Carpinteria First committee for several years, and was key in bringing new activities like Snow Much To Do to Carpinteria.

The Clarks love being a part of the local business community. Karen said of the cluster of Carpinteria antiques shops. “It’s a big family. It’s not a competition—the more the merrier.”

Whimsy draws people from all over, but the Clarks say that many of their most loyal customers are Carpinterians. “There’s nothing better than being supported by locals,” Karen said.

This ‘n’ that PICKUP GAME: Martin Luther King Jr. changed the world, but he didn’t change E.J. Harrison & Sons trash collection schedule for the week of Jan. 19 through 23.

During the holiday week, trash and green waste will be collected in Carpinteria as usual on Thursday, Jan. 22.

HOLDING PATTERN: As of Jan. 5, holds placed on library materials in the Black Gold System will be given first to members of the libraries that own the item. Black Gold includes the public libraries of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties as well as one library in Santa Paula. If a Santa Barbara Public Library branch, such as the Carpinteria library, owns a book, a cardholder with SBPL would be first in line for that book.

SECURE SCHOOL: Those wishing to visit the Cate School campus will now need to call ahead for security clearance. A check-in kiosk has been installed at the bottom of the hill, where visitors will need to be cleared to enter the campus.

Just married Ross - Hockman

The couple hopes to be stationed together in Honolulu next year. Ross is a regular visitor to Carpinteria and grandniece to long-time resident Ann B. Sanderson.

CVN basks in Bali sun

Jolie Noveski shuttled CVN to the beaches of Bali during an October retreat. She took her CVN photo op of the Avocado Festival edition with her toes in the sand on the island of Gili, Trawangan, one of the many tropical locales she sampled.

Noveski noted that the people were friendly and hotels fantastic. She said she can’t wait to get back.

Newtons find holiday spirit in Palm Desert

A mini-vacation for the mini-Newtons provided an opportunity to get excited for the holidays. Emilene and Anya Newton joined family on the roadtrip to their grandparents’ home in Palm Desert. While there, they stopped off at the Living Desert Zoo and Garden, which was decked out with a Christmas tree perfect for merging the holiday spirit with CVN.

Amrit Joy’s Hints for Healthy & Happy Living Take a silent stroll

Our culture is filled with noise, activity and overstimulation. A stroll is a wonderful way to take a break, give yourself a mini-vacation from all the everyday input.

A stroll is not a walk; it is not filled with purpose. It is a way to let go and relax.

As you stroll, take some nice long deep breaths. Allow yourself to appreciate the beauty that surrounds you. Open up your senses. Take in the sounds of the birds, the color of the sky, the fragrance of foliage and flowers, the temperature of the air. Experience your own being, your heartbeat, the rhythm of your breath.

Now add the element of silence to your stroll. Here you can empty out and be in the moment. The silence you want to experience is of a dual nature. The first part is non-verbal, not speaking. The second part, of a deeper nature, is quieting the mind. The thoughts will come; however, you can learn to let them go. Allow the thoughts to float by, like clouds moving in the sky. The more you do this, the easier it will become.

You can start with a short stroll and then over time stroll for a longer time.

Empty yourself and start feeling refreshed and renewed today.
