City budget brims with new projects and full funding
This week’s listings on the back page
Sliding into summer
By Cat Neushul
The 2014-15 draft budget for the City of Carpinteria, which was approved by the city council during its June 9 meeting, anticipates a general fund surplus of $35,000 and includes a number of projects for the benefit of residents. The city’s three major revenue sources, property tax, sales tax and transient occupancy tax, are all expected to grow modestly for the fourth consecutive year. While looking forward to the upcoming year, the city council also learned that Carpinteria will close the 2013-14 year with a general fund surplus of $345,947, a substantial improvement over the $6,235 estimated a year ago. Most of the line items in the 2014-15 budget reflect a continuation of the status quo, with some notable additions, like increased funding for the public library and allotments for zone code updates. The budget also includes funding for city hall improvements, the Santa Barbara County’s 211 Helpline, and the development of the 5,000-foot-long Carpinteria Rincon Trail. City Manager Dave Durflinger characterized the 2014-15 budget as exemplifying “more of the same” as

Blueberries bursting onto local ag scene By Peter Dugré
When Ralph Whitney was battling root rot at his avocado and lemon orchard off of Lambert Road near Summerland about a decade ago, a new option had just emerged for plants that could replace the failing trees at the 3.5-acre Whitney Ranch. Innovations in blueberry growing had made it possible to cultivate the popular and nutritious berries in frost-free climates, and the unique harvest window that could be had on the Central Coast presented an opportunity to fetch premium pricing. “We just happened to be taking out dead lemons and avocados—so we grabbed the tiger by the tail and now we can’t let go of it,” Whitney said. His organic blueberries are in high demand at local farmers markets. Since then, the valuable plants have gone into the ground throughout Carpinteria Valley, including more recently at large farms on Foothill Road and Rincon Road in addition to a new several-acre patch behind Tee Time on the Carpinteria Bluffs. Whitney explained that word has gotten out about blueberry cultivars developed by the universities of Florida and Georgia in the late 1990s, and unlike blueberries before them, the new plants do not need cold winters in order to bear fruit. Mark Gaskell, Ph.D., a farm consul-
tant and researcher with the San Luis Obispo office of the University of California Extension System, said that since the advent of new blueberry varieties, more than 7,000 acres of blueberries have been planted in California. Carpinteria currently has only about 50 to 100 of those acres, Gaskell said, but in all 2,000 acres of coastal blueberries have been planted between San Diego and Monterey counties because milder coastal regions are ideal for growing the berries. “Blueberries here taste better. They ripen more slowly. That’s my opinion,” Whitney said. The varieties that were developed for growth in the warmer Southeastern U.S. PETER DUGRé still needed further adjustments to take root in Cali- Blueberries have taken root on the Carpinteria Bluffs behind tee time in addition to fornia.

Venoco cuts 10 percent of administrative employees
Venoco, Inc. has downsized as a result of restructuring, according to spokesperson Steve Greig. The Denver-based oil and natural gas production company was purchased from shareholders by founder Tim Marquez in 2012, and to reduce debt incurred by taking the company private, the company sold off its Sacramento Basin assets, resulting in a reduction of staffing needs, explained Greig. In total, he said, the company laid off less than 10 percent of its administrative positions, roughly split between its Denver and Carpinteria offices. The company has shifted its oil and gas extraction efforts to its holdings at the Ellwood Field in Goleta, Montalvo Field in Ventura and offshore platforms Grace and Gail, from which resources are piped into the Carpinteria Oil and Gas Processing Facility.

Water rate structure needs changes
Open letter to the Carpinteria Valley Water District (edited for space): I am writing to protest the new water rate structures and their application of the same State Water and Capital projects charges to all residential customers regardless of their water usage and the imposing of a drought surcharge on customers using 6 HCF/month or less. I have presented multiple proposals to correct the unfairness of rates by distributing these fixed charges in proportion to the customers’ usage. I am now convinced that all of the boards I have dealt with do not really care about their water customers, especially those with lower or fixed incomes. A reply to my January letter to the board did not even address my method of drought mitigation or the merits of giving low water consumers relief. This proposal would substantially reduce the water bills of the customers using less than the median usage of all customers and provides incentive for the high water users to conserve. I found data from a residential water customer who used approximately the median water usage in the district. The price of water per HCF for this user was $1.24 in 1991 and it is now $14.19. This inflation is more than 13 times that in the utility industry. What is the cause? Blame the SWP? Sixty-two percent of the voters that opted for state water in 1991, or bad management? Whatever the reason for this disparity, what did the water board do to mitigate it? Instead of getting the high water users, who are also probably the most affluent, to pay for it, your policies give them incentive to use more water.

Reserve judgement on Bergadhl
These are the known facts. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was a prisoner of war in Afghanistan who was exchanged for five prisoners of war in America. None of the six had received trials. Bergdahl’s parents love him and did whatever they had to to get him back. He is resting in a hospital in stable condition. Anything else is speculation—unconscionably cruel speculation. Do we now grill and vilify the victim, unproven and biased. Do we now blame the victim with no evidence other than hearsay and political maneuvering ? Can we not give this family a moment’s peace?

Obama has cut a deal to leave Assad in power in Syria while providing assistance to terrorist groups, backed the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, funded the Hamas controlled Palestinian government and caved to Iran, which is hell bent on acquiring nuclear weapons. Most recently, Obama unilaterally struck a deal between State Departmentled negotiations and the Taliban, securing the release of Sgt. Bergdahl from Haqqani network custody in exchange for the release of the five most dangerous jihadists at Guantanamo Bay. Will this put more Americans/troops in danger and was this a political move to start closing Gitmo? Who is Bergdahl? According to former infantry officer Nathan Bradley Bethea, who served with him, “Bergdahl was a deserter, and soldiers from his unit died trying to track him down.” The Associated Press revealed a Pentagon investigation concluded in 2010 he walked away from his unit and other soldiers said he sought out the Taliban. More alarming, the Taliban claimed in 2010 Bergdahl converted to Islam and was teaching them bomb-making. According to fellow soldiers, after Bergdahl went AWOL, there was a spike in the number and accuracy of IED explosions. What about Bergdahl’s father? In the rose ceremony he said “Bismillah al-rahman al-rahim,” meaning in the name of Allah, the compassionate, the merciful? Finally, why did we release the five jihadists to Qatar, a safe haven for terrorists, where they are freely walking around? Wake up, America. Obama has helped our enemies, diminished and demoralized our military, weakened our national security and subverted the rule of law. Whose side is he on?

New logo symbolizes vibrant future for the arts
I am writing today because I am excited for the future of the Carpinteria Arts Center.

Ho hum review of new art logo
I viewed the new Carpinteria Arts Center logo in last week’s CVN. Pretty lame. I know it is pretty hard to come up with a good logo, but this one is totally generic, boring and should not be representing Carpinteria. A multi-month effort by expert graphic designers—”tweaking, changing and fiddling”—and all they can come up with is a circle with a line through it. And seriously, the word “ARTS” represents the arts? Who would have guessed? It could be a logo for anything from a car club to an astronomy group. Other than the word “Carpinteria” appearing in the logo nothing about it represents our tropical paradise. It is clear to me that no art was used in this effort.

be a center for all ages and for everyone in our local beach community. There is nothing more powerful than a nonprofit, smack dab in the middle of our small town, that truly can impact everyone around us through the power of the arts. This new logo is a big first step towards modernizing the art center, and creating an image that is both visually appealing and contemporary. The simple yet creative design, has a crisp and clean look and feel while remaining dedicated to the arts. The tagline for the new logo is, “(Carpinteria Arts Center)… Making a new home for the arts,” which couldn’t be more spot on. With the revision and rebranding of the new logo, the Carpinteria Arts Center truly will be the new home for Carpinteria’s art. Not only are there lots of future events planned for the arts center, Art by the Sea Summer Camp is also approaching. There, kids will get to enjoy learning art theory and artistic methods that will inspire and empower them to become the future artists of the Carpinteria Arts Center. I hope that the residents of Carpinteria are catching the excitement that has infected Art Center volunteers. We want this new facility to be a reflection of our beautiful, creative community.

Big changes for little bridge, but reasons remain murky By Maureen Foley
Overnight on May 30, the traffic flow along Foothill Road changed dramatically when Caltrans installed two new stop signs on either side of the bridge that straddles Arroyo Parida Creek. The bridge changed from twolane to one-lane in the process. According to Caltrans spokesperson Jim Shivers, the stop signs and one-lane change will be in place indefinitely because the “existing bridge rail is in need of replacement.” It remained unclear as to what prompted the sudden choking of the bridge to one lane and what will need fixing in order to reopen the second lane. The historic, narrow bridge is located just outside Carpinteria city limits on State Route 192, or Foothill Road, between Cravens Lane and Nidever Road, in the midst of scenic agricultural land and homes. (In the interest of full disclosure, readers should know that the author of this article lives near the bridge.) This current major transformation to the bridge may be a preview of the years of construction and changes in the area when Caltrans’ long-term plan to construct a new bridge is finally approved. For now, the stop signs have forced drivers to slow down, something Maude Boersema, a local Foothill Road resident, has enjoyed. “The stop sign has been a relief … With so many small children and pets living on our street, it’s an improvement that we have something to make people more aware of their speed,” she said. Hundreds of cars and cyclists crossing the Arroyo Parida Creek Bridge every day must now stop. In order to emphasize the changes, Caltrans installed a dozen signs, several neon orange flags and two electronic signboards announcing the upcoming stop. California Highway Patrol officers were assigned to the area on June 1 in order to enforce the new stop signs and “get people conditioned,” according to Sergeant Brian Demattia, who had been monitoring traffic. While slowed traffic and improved public safety are benefits for the residents and workers in the agricultural and residential neighborhood, the timing concerns some people. Residents received no mailed notices about the roadwork. The date of the work order for the new stop signs is relevant, because some nearby residents suspect that the cumbersome stop signs and lane closures may have been installed as punishment to those who are unhappy with some aspects of Caltrans’ new bridge project after the current plan was rejected by the County Planning Commission at its May 7 meeting. The bridge has been in decline for years, and Caltrans has been unable to provide answers to the question of “why now?” Shivers explained that some “local residents” had
Multiple stop signs announce the single lane bridge on Foothill road that had been abruptly altered for an indefinite period. recently complained about missing bridge barriers. However, he was unable to give the names of the people involved or the date they complained, or how that complaint turned into new stop signs. When pressed about the timing of the new stop signs, Shivers then explained that he first received “project notification” about the stop sign installation on May 19, and that an “Emergency Force Account” was currently being used to fund the project, rather than the typical, open bidding process, because the bridge needed such immediate repair. An “Emergency Force Account” is enacted to repair damaged roads after mudslides or fires. But unlike such dramatic events, the Arroyo Parida Creek Bridge has been missing a side barrier for years. Adding to the confusion was the fact that Caltrans’ “Emergency Force Account” was opened, according to Shivers, on June 2, a few days after the work began on Foothill Road. Opponents have called the bigger scale and scope
CITY BUDGET: Continued from page 1
the country comes out of the recession. An introduction to the draft budget states, “The 2014-15 budget reflects a slow and continuing improvement in the local economy as the region, state and nation recovers from the negative effects of a national economic recession.” The 2014-15 fiscal year budget is estimated at approximately $12.8 million, with $8.2 million allotted to the general fund. The general fund portion reflects a 2.8 percent increase from the 2013-14 fiscal year. During his presentation, Administrative Services Director John Thornberry provided general fund projections through 2019. Income is expected to keep close pace with expenses until 2018, at which point, the gap grows to a cumulative shortfall of $1.2 million. This discrepancy is caused by a number of factors including subsidizing roadway and park maintenance funds that fall short of needs. Representatives from each of the departments, such as Community Development, Public Works and Parks & Recreation, made presentations on accomplishments made in the 2013-14 year, and plans for the future. Community Development Director Jackie Campbell highlighted several proj-
ects her department had been involved in. She outlined successes in bringing properties owned by Dario Pini up to code. She showed photos of new windows and doors that were installed to provide ventilation and greater access for tenants. “We recognize that there is a lot more work to be done, but it’s important to us,” Campbell said. Campbell also showed a picture of the site that will be home to the Casa de la Flores housing project being built by Peoples’ Self Help Housing. She said that the area was being graded and soon would be in development. Public Works Director Charlie Ebeling said that there were several capital improvements in store for 2014-15, one of these is the Ninth Street Bridge Replacement. Other projects include the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge replacement, and a Via Real and Cravens Lane sidewalk infill. Parks & Recreation Director Matt Roberts said that the 2014-15 budget will include funds to install an ozone system at the Carpinteria Community Pool, develop the Rincon Trail and implement the Community Garden Program. He said development of the Rincon Trail, which will help to link bike trails from Santa Barbara to Ventura, was particularly important. “This is the missing link in a

of Caltrans’ proposed bridge and its environmental impacts into question. According to a 2009 Initial Study report from Caltrans, the new bridge would feature “two 12-foot-wide lanes and two 8-foot-wide shoulders. The project would also widen the roadway on both sides of the bridge…” In response to why the county rejected the Caltrans Plan, Anne Almy, Supervising Planner in Development Review for the Santa Barbara County Planning Department, said, “What we’ve got right now is a small two-lane highway which we all know and love as a small two-lane highway.” Ann Louise Bardach, another Foothill Road resident, echoed Almy’s response to the new bridge design. “We don’t need the Tappan Zee Bridge on our little country road,” she said.

Friends of the Carpinteria Library showed up in force to support an increase in city funding for the library. In 2013-14, the city provided $27,000 of the library’s annual budget. In the face of a $17,000 operating deficit for 2014-15, the library
will receive an additional $8,500 in city funding. Friends of the Library will match the city’s increase, which will allow the facility to remain open six days a week. Jean Bailard, president of the Friends of the Carpinteria Library Board of Directors, said, “Lots of people are using (the library) in a lot of different ways. The library is still a vibrant part of our community.”

Joan “Abba” Georgine Sinclair Gunther 9/02/1929-6/03/2014
“Can’t say it ain’t been wonderful” were some of this incredible woman’s final words, making it easier on her family and friends to let her go. She lived her whole life with this sense of humor. Even during difficult times, she would make fun of any situation. She is missed so much. Even though her family was her favorite, other passions were art, cooking, teaching, traveling, playing cards with her local buddies, and beating her children in iPad scrabble (most of the time). After growing up in Tom’s River, New Jersey, attending Cooper Union Art School in New York City, marrying Allan Gunther and having three children, Joan and her gang moved to Carpinteria in 1960 (no more bundling up the kids to play in the snow, yay!!). Two more children later she continued her creative journey, selling her paintings along Cabrillo Blvd and showing her work in galleries all over California. She was a long time art teacher at Adult Ed in Santa Barbara and at Cate School in Carpinteria. She was a member of the National Watercolor Society, Watercolor
West, Santa Barbara Art Association, and Santa Barbara Arts council and assisted with the birth and future expansion of the Carpinteria Arts Center. She was also known as a “Foodie,” although her five children didn’t appreciate her gourmet cooking until much later. She and a friend established their own catering business, Cooking Cousins. They were an awesome duo, feeding Carpinteria and Santa Barbara clients with scrumptious and elegant meals. She did all of this while raising five children. Joan also loved to travel, especially to Mexico and Asia, and always wanted to visit India. Actually, she took any opportunity to explore the world, always with art in mind. One of her favorite places to visit was Figueroa Mountain in Santa Ynez. These are only a few of the many joys and accomplishments in her life. She is preceded in death by her husband of almost 40 years, Allan Gunther (mathematics teacher at Cate School, Calif.). She is survived by her brother, William Sinclair of South Carolina, and his family, and by her five children: Jeff Gunther of Pasadena, Calif.; Kim Gunther (Sandy) of Watsonville, Calif.; Linda Gunther Swearingen (Bruce) of San Jose, Calif.; Jill Gunther Matthews (Tom) of Reno, Nev.; and David Gunther (Dianne) of Carpinteria, Calif. She is also survived by eight grandchildren, Matt, Mandy, Conner, Wes, Sydney, Ben, Jenna, and Cooper, and two step-grandchildren, Bev and Perry. Many more relatives, caregivers and friends survive her. All were honored and fortunate to spend time reminiscing, joking and enjoying each moment with her before she went on her way. Friends and family, please join us in celebrating this dear woman on July 5. In lieu of flowers please contribute to your favorite organization that supports the arts, in Joan’s honor.

Water rates climb with drought to blame Tiered rates adopted for ag customers By Lea Boyd
Carpinterians who fail to conserve water are likely to feel the sharp bite of higher water rates come fall, and all Carpinteria Valley Water District customers will see at least a small increase in their water rates as of July 1. The CVWD water board adopted a $12.23 million budget on June 4 that incorporates $867,636 in drought related expenses and accounts for those increased costs by raising rates slightly as of July 1 and allowing for a more dramatic rate hike, particularly to high water users, in a few months. More controversial than the conservation-aimed residential water rates, in which the cost per unit of water increases more sharply than usual as a customer’s water use climbs, is a new three-tiered water rate structure for agricultural customers. Farmers’ water rates have historically been much lower than residential customers, who pay more due to the treatment costs required to meet strict drinking water standards. Given the severity of the drought, this year’s board opted to raise rates on ag customers from a flat $1.72 per 100 cubic feet (748 gallons) to $1.76 for first tier users, $1.82 for second tier users and $1.89 for the highest tier. A baseline of water use has been established for each grower based on historic water use, and the district is working oneon-one with some growers to arrive at a baseline that takes into account unique circumstances, such as a formerly unused meter or a change to crops. Starting in July, the median agricultural water user’s CVWD bill will rise by $19.40. Should the board of directors declare a stage two drought, which could happen as early as September, each ag tier will rise and the median agricultural water user will see a hike of $34.62. Avocado grower Scott Van Der Kar told the board that the cost increase could force farming operations into the red. If agricultural customers take acreage out of production due to increased costs, the district’s fixed costs, such as debt service for the State Water Project and reservoir covers, would have to be shouldered by fewer customers. “My hope is that next season will be the turnaround point,” he said of the drought. “… if not, there will be big changes in the valley I think.” Boardmember June Van Wingerden, a local flower grower, lamented the three-tiered ag structure and its potential impacts on local agriculture. She told the audience that this year’s budgetary decisions were difficult and involved a lot of

careful consideration by rate and budget committee members Polly Holcombe and Matt Roberts, who did not attend the June 4 meeting for family reasons. Van Wingerden compared Carpinteria to its neighboring district, which has forced its customers into drastic water cutbacks. “Montecito cut water to ag by 80 percent, and I know at least two farms that are just folding,” she said. “We did not want to be in that situation because agriculture is really important to us.” The majority of the district’s customers are residential. Low water users will see their bills increase by about $2.66 per month, while high water users can expect an increase of $16.98. Multifamily residental will climb by about $2.36 per month. If a stage two drought is declared, the second tier for residential customers will be elimated altogether, and customers who exceed their base tier usage will pay peak rates. Base level use will be $3.12 per HCF and peak tier use will cost $6.05 per HCF. Low water users will still see just a few extra dollars on their water bill, but high water users can expect a $29.28 increase. “We need to reward the lowest user,” explained Holcombe. Drought expenses adding to the 2014-2015 budget include spot market water purchases, power for pumping groundwater wells, water conservation programs and CVWD’s share of the costs to construct and operate a barge at Lake Cachuma designed to pump water up to the Tecolote Tunnel to feed South Coast water agencies. Boardmembers have stated publicly that should the drought break, the rates will be scaled back and the tiered agri-

culture rate structure removed. During its budget discussion, the board flirted with the idea of a sunset clause to the rates. Boardmember Van Wingerden said, “I understand that next year at this time we’ll do another budget and none of this will be included if it has rained, but I think that the public just wants assurance that that’s going to happen—that this isn’t just a baseline for the budget next year.” Assistant Manager Norma Rosales told the board that a sunset clause would be
difficult because there is no way to tell when the drought will end and what specific costs will have burdened the district at that point. Longtime water district watchdog Ann Bardach shouted “Hallelujah” during public comment when she learned that among the district’s cost saving measures for the upcoming year was the elimination of $80,000 in boardmember health care plans. “I commend all of you for doing it, because it shows you’re looking out for our pocketbooks as well,” Bardach said. Local resident Gary Campopiano encouraged the board to consider a moratorium on new water meters, and Carpinteria resident Bob Regis decried the board’s failure to act on his proposal for water rates that incorporate fixed costs into the usage rate to avoid what he called a “discount for high water users.” A few other members of the public addressed the board, but only nine written protests were submitted. Proposition 218 states that if a majority of customers protest the proposed rates, the district cannnot legally implement the hike. For CVWD, 2,786 protests were needed to make up a majority. Boardmembers approved both the proposed 2014-15 budget and water rates 4-0.
Local agencies team up for recycled water study The Carpinteria Valley Water District, City of Carpinteria and Carpinteria Sanitary District will each pitch in $25,000 toward a detailed study of what it would take to put a recycled water system in place in Carpinteria. The $75,000 supplied by the trio of stakeholders is expected to be matched by a grant from the State Water Resources Control Board to fund the full $150,000 study. “I do believe there is the potential for the use of recycled water in this community,” CVWD General Manager Charles Hamilton told his board of directors on June 4. Recycled water, he said, might be viable source for crop irrigation as well as landscape irrigation
at city parks, schools and for Caltrans projects. Hamilton called the supply “virtually permanent” and said that until a study is conducted, there is no way to evaluate a decision for or against a recycled water project. The CVWD board voted to tack its share of the study onto its 2014-15 budget, though Boardmember June Van Wingerden voted against the expense. “It all sounds wonderful to clean up the water and not put it in the ocean,” Van Wingerden said. “That’s the good part, but the bad part is you’ve got to pay for all the (new pipelines) and subsidize that water to go to people who will then not pay as much as it costs.

“X-Men: Days of Future Past” duncan’s reel deal
&
A reader sends a halo to Rockwell Printing for doing a great job on the Canalino School yearbooks. “Thank you.”
A reader sends a halo to Dr. Fischer and his staff at Carpinteria Veterinary Hospital. “They took my little dog, Kahuna, in right away for an emergency appointment. Dr. Fischer was very kind, informative and compassionate.”
MATT DUNCAN Summer means sunshine, parades, baseball games, trips to the beach and another “X-Men” movie. Some of us look on these things with delight. Others of us look on them with trepidation, loathing or at least some hesitance. “X-Men: Days of Future Past” is indeed one of those summer blockbusters. Whether or not it delights you, well, that’s your call. One thing we can all agree on, though, is that the way “X-Men: Days of Future Past” is set up is regrettable. Forget the logically inconsistent time travel, which of course is passed off in standard “Whoa, dude, it’s like, a paradox!” fashion. I’m not saying that such inconsistencies are ok plot-wise (Are any inconsistencies ok plot-wise? Do you not groan when soand-so, who we know is in Cleveland, pops up in Zimbabwe or something?). Nor am I saying that we should give this depiction of time travel a pass because all time travel just has to be logically inconsistent (It may or may not have to be, but, c’mon, don’t make it so that, at time T, person X would have to both be and not be talking to time-traveling person Y. That’s not deep. That’s just dumb.). I just think that since so many time travel movies simply ignore these glaring problems, it is probably not worth stressing over how this movie is a case in point. So, aside from all that, this movie’s set up is regrettable because it has too much herky-jerky, talking-at-the-camera explanation of what is going on, and even when there is some showing rather than telling, it is cringe worthy—like when we find out that Professor X once had a thing for Mystique by our being shown a picture of Mystique in a golden frame placed prominently by his bedside. Subtlety just isn’t this movie’s thing. Now, what we are told is that the post-apocalyptic world the movie opens with is the result of decades of fighting between mutants and “Sentinels,” which are cyborgs developed by humans to kill mutants. What makes the Sentinels so formidable, we are told, is that they can take on the mutant powers of their enemies. Iceman, for example, is no use against a cyborg with the powers of Sunspot (that much, at least, we are shown). The mutants are getting killed off one by one. And it turns out that all of this came about because, way back when, Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence) assassinated Dr. Trask (Peter Dinklage), the inventor of the Sentinels. Mystique hopes this will halt the Sentinel program. But it only stokes anti-mutant fears. So it actually speeds up the program. Thus, what Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), etc. figure they should do is go back in time and stop Mystique. And since Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) is the only one who can survive the trip to the past, they send
Halos Pitchforks
A reader sends a halo to Carp Kustomz. “I was leaving for a trip, my car not starting and Ruben Clark came to the rescue, arranging for a replacement part to be driven from LA within hours.” A reader sends a halo to her daughter who is about to birth the reader’s second grandchild. “Such a blessing to us all.” A reader sends a halo to the Carpinteria High School senior breakfast waffle crew. “Way to go, ladies. We rocked it!”
him back to enlist young Professor X (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fassbender)—which is harder than he might have hoped—to stop Trask’s assassination. One interesting question—and, despite my earlier complaining, I do think this is an interesting question—is whether changing this or that particular event in history will have the impact that anyone might expect it to have. Will stopping Mystique prevent Sentinels from being created? Will it keep the war from happening? Will it save the X-Men? Turns out it’s pretty tough to tell. Even if impossible time travel is no problem for the X-Men, navigating the if-thens of the past turns out to provide plenty of perils. I love how “X-Men” in general is conceived. I think the idea of a mutant race that is at odds, both socially and politically, with a non-mutant human population is pretty interesting. I also think that many of the characters in this series are pretty cool. “X-Men: Days of Future Past” does capitalize on some of these good-making features. It has interesting characters and character development, which is aided by the fact that each of its cast of thousands is very good at acting. Nonetheless, while I do love how “X-Men” in general is conceived, I do not love how “X-Men: Days of Future Past” is conceived. Nor do I love how it was executed. Too much explaining. Too much sentimentality. Too much reliance on actors’ charisma. Too cheesy. Too revisionary. But does all this keep “X-Men: Days of Future Past” from being fun or entertaining or likeable or a successful summer blockbuster? Hardly. “X-Men: Days of Future Past” is rated PG-13 for sequences of intense sci-fi violence and action, some suggestive material, nudity and language.

A reader sends a pitchfork to a local pizza place that said there is a $5 delivery charge after it’s been free all these years. “When I called the guy on it, he said he was joking. I wonder how many people just say ok and pay the $5.” A reader sends a pitchfork to a young boy who almost hit the reader’s little dog when he was crossing the street riding his skateboard. “He should watch where he is riding and apologize for something like that.” A reader sends a pitchfork to a certain local business that only hires employees from the same church, and rarely gives people outside that church a chance. A reader sends a pitchfork to people who drop off their broken items at St. Joseph Catholic Church for their resale shop. “The church is not a dumping ground for your trash.”

Nipping cats
A woman worried about her two missing cats reported that she feared a nagging neighbor had poisoned them while she was away on June 3 on Palmetto Way. She pieced together her suspicions based on a bowl with cat food remnants that she had discovered in her carport. The cats always came home in the afternoon when she arrived, but they were nowhere to be found, leading her to think whoever planted the bowl of food had laced it with poison. And the whoever was likely her neighbor, she said. The neighbor was known for nit-picky complaints to the HOA, and she said, the former tenants where she lived also suspected him of doing their cats in. Deputies took an incident report, upon request, but commented that there was no evidence of caticide.
Stripped and ditched
City code enforcement officers tipped deputies off about a stolen car parked on Elm Street in the beach neighborhood on
May 28. The car appeared to have been damaged and deputies noted the stereo and airbag had been removed. Otherwise, the vehicle was clean and the driver’s side door handle appeared to have been wiped of latent fingerprints. Deputies notified the owner, who had had the vehicle stolen from him in Glendale on May 24. It was towed with the owner’s consent.
Uncontrolled substance
A deputy spotted a man waving his arms overhead walking down Carpinteria Avenue near Arbol Verde at midnight on May 31. The deputy pulled over to have a casual conversation before noticing the man was concealing a cylindrical object. Because of the mysterious object, the deputy ordered the man to take a seat on the curb. It was an unopened beer. Due to the man’s twitchy eyebrows, rapid speech and incoherence, the deputy suspected the man was consuming more than beer. A search of the man’s bag turned
up marijuana, but that did not explain his heart racing at 128 beats per minute. Asked about possible meth use, the man said it had been a year since he last dabbled with the drug. He then shrank that estimation to once in a blue moon, before stating he did not use that day. At that point, he told deputies he was done with the probing and would not cooperate further with their examination or urine testing. He was arrested for suspicion of being under the influence of a controlled substance.
police were left out of the situation. She later contacted a roommate, who also had no knowledge of the arrangement. He told the woman to call 9-1-1. An investigation by deputies determined that none of the items taken from the garage were approved. Deputies attempted to contact the registered owner of the vehicle that had been photographed but the only phone number had been disconnected.
Bike walk
An attendant at a Carpinteria Avenue gas station reported that a man stole two ice cream cones and battered him at 6:10 p.m. on May 24. The suspect had entered the gas station and grabbed the key to enter the restroom, but the employee didn’t realize that the man had also swiped two ice cream cones from the freezer to enhance his bathroom experience. A customer had noticed and tipped off the employee. The employee barged into the bathroom and found the man eating the ice cream. The customer said he was going to pay, but the confrontation escalated, and the customer reportedly forced his way out of the bathroom—in a way that could be construed as battery—and drove off. The attendant did not get the license plate number.
A woman returning to her Holly Avenue residence after a jog noticed an unfamiliar man exiting her driveway pushing two bicycles and loading them into a truck on May 28 around noon. Being that the bikes weren’t hers, she went inside. Peering out the window, she noticed the man returning to the carport, this time selecting her bikes. She confronted him, and he explained that a guy who owed him money had told him to take the bikes as payment. She told him he couldn’t have the bikes, and he also agreed to return a couple of power tools, valued at $200, which he had also loaded into his truck. The woman then accompanied him to the vehicle, where they waited for the man who had allegedly told him to clean out the garage. The wait grew too long, and she had to go. However, she took a picture of the truck and guy and left. He instructed her that he would prefer it if

Fire, water and what happens in the watershed living the green life
ERIN MAKER
I would have to be disconnected from every news source to not know that we have entered fire season. Although even saying fire season is a misnomer—we live in a hot, dry climate that has been hotter and drier in recent years than ever before. Last year was the driest on record in California, and 2014 is in the running to beat that. While we have had a few storms, one of which slammed the south coast with destructive waves during high tide, none have made a dent in our drought conditions. And dry conditions lead to an even higher risk of fire. Anyone who has lived in the area since 2007 remembers the four fires in less than two years that impacted the area prior to entering a drought cycle. Windy, hot weather is dangerous at any time of year in fire-prone climates, but with low water supply it becomes critical. But besides the negative effects it has on man-made structures and way of life, fire severely impacts local wildlife habitats. And while some native plants do well after a fire, it can have a devastating effect overall. We have probably all heard that certain
plants need fire to regenerate, particularly the chaparral forests of Southern California. While plants do regenerate after fire, saying that they need it is a little misleading. The natural lifecycle of a forest does include fire, but human influence has led to a far greater frequency of fires than would naturally occur. Plants have evolved to tolerate fires so the species can carry on after a fire, an adaptation that ensures their survival. But they do not necessarily need to burn; prior to human influence, fire frequency ranged from 30 years to upwards of 150 years. Fire destroys the canopy as well as ground cover, leaving soil exposed. This exposes the soil surface, which can lead to high rates of erosion when it rains. The ash can also make it harder for water to soak into the ground, or infiltrate, which means more erosion. Erosion is bad for several reasons. Water that is running off the land isn’t soaking into groundwater basins or helping new plants take root. It also isn’t slowing down, which means streams and rivers flow faster, potentially washing out fish and other wildlife living there. This happened after the fires in 2008-2009. Fish were washed out of the upper reaches of at least one creek because of the intensity of the flow. And due to man-made barriers, such as dams and dry weather crossings in creeks, fish may not be able return to the headwaters of a watershed after fire. The intensity and impact area of a fire, as well as the duration and intensity of
rainfall that occurs after a fire, will all contribute to how small or large an impact there is on a watershed. But after a fire, sediments and ash in the local water bodies is a given, and this will have a negative effect on the animals that live there. If plant life can’t regenerate, it has consequences on all wildlife. Habitat that has been destroyed takes a long time to reestablish, and this means water temperatures rise as well as mortality rates for animals due to lack of shade. Ecosystems, while fairly resilient, are made up of delicate balances, and high water temperatures can kill many of the animals living in the creeks. Those animals are part of the food chain, and lack of food, and water, can effect generations of animals. GRILLED SALMON $11.95 BEEF is KABOBS The currentBBQ drought already $9.95 hurting ORIGINAL SALAD BAR $6.95 local wildlife. Aquatic life can’t survive if there is no stream to support them. And spring is the time of year that most animals are reproducing, but if they can’t find food and water, mothers often end up abandoning their young so they themselves can survive. These are all reasons we need to be extra careful in the coming months. Water conservation and fire prevention are always important, but as we enter an even drier season, it is crucial to our local environment. A small spark can start a wildfire, but it takes a lot to put one out.

BLUEBERRIES: Continued from page 1
Plants sold through wholesalers fetch a more variable and usually lower price, but harvesting in March through May ensures that the California berries will be in high demand. “The price just goes crazy,” Gaskell said. Chile, a major blueberry producer, harvests until March, and Florida does not come onto the market until May, so California growers fill in that gap. The other advantage to maintaining availability throughout what had been a spring dry spell for blueberries has been consistency. Consumers can expect to see the berries throughout the year, and demand has only grown because of the steady supply. Driscoll’s, a global player in the berry business, has agreements with local growers to cultivate its patented varieties, which are then sold under the Driscoll’s label on the open market. The larger farms planted in blueberries locally grow Driscoll’s blueberries. “The berries being grown in (Carpinteria Valley) could possibly land anywhere in the world, as the demand for them has increased as consumers have learned more about their proven health benefits,” stated John Johnston, spokesperson for Driscoll’s. The company does
not disclose if it has further growth plans in the area, nor does it identify where its plants are growing. Blueberries have risen in popularity along a similar trajectory as raspberries and blackberries before them. Five years ago, raspberries went from the 15th most abundant crop in Ventura County to the third, according to Gaskell. All parties agree that global demand for blueberries has been driven by the trumpeting of their nutritional benefits, particularly their role as an antioxidant. “This blueberry thing has been taking place all over the world,” said Gaskell. “Where people can, they stick them in the ground down here, because the climate is so mild.” Gaskell said there is no telling how long the expansion will last and that, with all its advantages, the mild coast does present some disadvantages to berry production. Costs of land, water and labor are higher on the coast than in the Central Valley. Farmers like Whitney, who caught on when all the innovations were cropping up, had the advantage of claiming limited space at farmers markets, which is now harder to come by. “People are hooked. They can’t get enough of them,” Whitney said of his local clientele.

Local takes on World Cup watching
Thomson to take Brazilian soccer tour
June 12 - 18, 2014
Dream trip coincides with World Cup BY PETER DUGRÉ
The fast-approaching World Cup has Carpinteria High School athletic trainer Bridget Thomson hardly able to believe that she’ll be heading to host country Brazil to join the action. Thomson, one of CHS’s all-time great soccer players, will travel with women’s team SoCal Select, a club based in the Anaheim area, as an ambassador for American women’s club soccer while touring Brazil and facing off against clubs representing cities there. An avid fan, she’ll squeeze in some time to attend World Cup matches while caught up in the fan frenzy that will overtake the entire nation. “I wanted to find a way to go one way or another, so when I heard the team was going, it was a dream come true,” said Thomson, who, now in the final countdown for her June 22 departure, called the anticipation “surreal.” The trip that runs through July 15 includes stops in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro among a number of other cities. Thomson tried out for SoCal Select last September to join many of her former Chapman University teammates on the squad. A midfielder, Thomson held the CHS scoring record when she graduated in 2007, and as team captain, she helped lead Chapman to the NCAA tournament in 2011, the first time the program gained entry to the tournament in eight years. SoCal Select will play about a dozen friendly matches intended to build camaraderie with its Brazilian counterparts. “We hope to bond and exchange jerseys after the matches,” she said. She also hopes to gain some inside connections for tickets to World Cup matches from the locals. She has tickets for a Bosnia versus Iran match. The Brazilian consulate is waving visa fees for travelers with World Cup tickets, but she said ticket sales are restricted for non-Brazilians. She hopes to pick up tickets to matches along the way. “It’s going to be one of those things where you go up to the venue at the time of the game to see if someone is selling tickets,” Thomson said. In addition to watching from the stadiums, public viewing areas called Fan-Fest venues will be set up in most

cities throughout the country. Thomson returned to Carpinteria after graduating from Chapman and took the position as athletic trainer for CHS sports programs. She also teaches sports medicine at CHS, a course offered as a Regional Occupation Program, geared toward preparing students for careers. The course is very popular among student-athletes. “A lot of kids are interested in physical therapy, coaching or strength and conditioning,” she said. After beginning her teaching career as a temporary employee, Thomson became a full-time employee in April. She said SoCal is going into their “adventure” fairly blind to the level of play of the Brazilian competition. “They’ll be well-run decent teams as far as I can tell,” she said. To prepare, SoCal plays weekend games against other regional clubs, and Thomson also plays in Santa Barbara. She tries to play a couple of times per week to keep her skills fresh. While SoCal will be playing at smaller venues than the men’s squads com-

U14 softballers win in Templeton
The Carpinteria Valley Girls Softball League U14 All Star team won big at its most recent tournament in Templeton on June 7 and 8. The team won all four of its games while the thermometer maxed out at 102 degrees. In the semifinals, the team defeated Templeton 10-0. Then in the finals, Carpinteria beat San Luis Obispo Fusion 16-7 in a game that was called after five innings due to the mercy rule. Coach Gary Blair said the double-digit run production was due to a team effort. Pitcher Amanda Blair limited opponents and was backed up by a strong defense. “(Opposing teams) looked pretty good when we were watching them, but we were just on,” Blair said.

Amrit Joy’s Hints for Healthy & Happy Living Have “just enough”
SUBMITTED PHOTO
Angelica Centina, owner of Salon Mirame, and her stylists, Karina Carrillo, Julie Brunett, Janeen Romero, Candice Ruiz, Sitaara Brady, Callie Barker, Tracy Hunsberger and Katrina Moreno, showed their Warrior Spirit by donating proceeds from the May 4 Cut-A-Thon to players and coaches, from left, Natalie Saito, coach Ray Gonzales, Shannon Callaway, Scarlett Pettine, Pauline Barbosa and coach Henry Gonzales.
Salon Mirame supports Warrior softball
After the final trimmed locks hit the floor on May 4 at Salon Mirame, the salon tallied all the proceeds from the day and donated a cut to Carpinteria High School softball. Donations to the softball program will support the Field of Dreams fundraiser, through which the team hopes to fund upgrades to its diamond. Anyone interested in supporting the team’s efforts can donate to Carpinteria Education Foundation-CHS softball by calling 566-1615.
Boys & Girls Club to host basketball camps
Boys and girls ages 8 to 12 can dribble and shoot their way through two weeks of basketball summer camps hosted by Carpinteria Boys & Girls Club, 4849 Foothill Road. The first session of camp will be held between Tuesday, June 17 and Friday, June 20, from 8 a.m. to noon at the club. The second session is scheduled for Monday, July 7, to Friday, July 11. Lunch is provided at both camps, and the cost to attend is $75 for members. For more information, call club athletic director Javier Morales at 684-1568.
Most of us have more than enough of everything. Having “just enough” is definitely a process. To start thinking about all your abundance is step one in the process. Then, how to “let go”? When was the last time you touched that item—wore it, used it or even looked at it? It may be time to let that item go. As we let go of things and give them away, we create space around us. We may feel lighter. This is an ongoing process. It helps to think that someone else will be getting good use out of your items. I hope this inspires you to just keep going, clearing away and letting go, until one day you say, “I have just enough.” Amrit Joy is a certified Hatha and Kundalini Yoga instructor. She has been practicing and teaching yoga since 1976. Amrit offers ongoing group yoga classes open to all levels here in Carpinteria. Private instruction in yoga and meditation is also available by appointment. For more information, call Amrit Joy at 745-1707 or visit amritjoy.com.

Carpinteria Salt Marsh became a living laboratory for second-graders at Canalino School during a recent field trip. Kathleen Tomscha’s class learned about endangered plants and birds, migratory birds and the fish nursery at the marsh.

Carpinterian Youth recognized with President’s award
Carpinteria Middle School sixth-grader Emily Calkins was recently awarded the President’s Volunteer Service Gold Award for kids by completing over 110 hours of community service during 2013 at age 11. in a congratulatory letter, President obama states, “Thank you for your devotion to service and for doing all you can to shape a better tomorrow for our great Nation.” The majority of Calkins’ service was completed through Girl Scouts by helping with various local programs for younger girls. in addition, she took part in beach cleanups and helped organize several activities for younger children at Carpinteria Family School. The President’s Volunteer Service Award encourages youths to devote themselves to lives of service. Calkins’ next goal is to earn the President’s Volunteer Service Gold Award for young adults, which is for youth age 14 and older and requires a minimum of 250 hours of verified service in one year.

A few thoughts on shoes wardrobe wisdom LORI COOPER Drawings by Camille Cooper My husband offered some great wardrobe wisdom today. We were recalling the long time it took for him to find the ideal shoes for our trip to Europe four years ago. He must have tried on 25 pairs over several weeks, before settling on a pair that worked out beautifully and that he continues to wear today. He told me that if people took as much time and care in trying on clothing as most do when trying on shoes, they would make fewer regrettable purchases. I have to agree. Think about the way you try on shoes: You may have your foot measured, you walk around the store in them, sometimes on various surfaces, you envision them with different outfits, and you insist that they look good and feel good before taking them home. Even so, you may end up with shoes that look fantastic, but hurt your feet later. At least once a week someone asks me to recommend a good-looking and comfortable shoe, implying that these two qualities are mutually exclusive. Though there are innumerable funky, clunky and just plain strange “comfort” shoes out there, for men and women alike, there are also chic ones that feel great. In my Wardrobe Wisdom work, there are a few shoes that I suggest men and women own. For men, as I stated in my September column, a nice pair of sneakers look great with shorts, jeans and casual pants. Adidas, Vans, Converse Fred Perry’s and Nike make comfortable, updated ones. These sneakers are not ones you wear to the gym, with heavy soles and sporty details. They are black, blue, gray or a bright color if you like to play up your feet. A simple boot, often called a desert or chukka boot, comes in leather and suede, most often in the colors blue, brown or tan. Look for ones with a soft insole and a pliable upper. I like the ones by Ecco, Rockport, Cole Haan and Clarks. These are all brands known for making shoes you can wear all day. Stay with them when you look for another basic: dress shoes. Wear your boots with jeans and corduroy pants. The dress shoes are for suits and nicer work pants.
We Californians love our flip-flops. So, men and women, please treat yourselves to a new pair this summer. No one wants to see you in scruffy, dirty and worn out flip-flops. Ones by Rainbow, Havaianas, J Crew, Teva and Reef all look and feel terrific. I know this will sound very stuffy, but I like to see flip-flops at the pool, the beach and at a picnic. Otherwise, I would like to see people wearing sandals. Call me old fashioned! An updated pair of sneakers is a great shoe choice for women to run around town in on casual days. Again, these are not your gym or exercise shoes. Look for ones that have flexible soles and don’t cut into your heel. Sneakers by Nike, Converse, Adidas and Ugg are fashionable and super comfortable. Wear them with jeans, rolled up colorful summer pants and shorts. My daughters wear their Converse sneakers with dresses and skirts and look darling, but they are teenagers. I am pretty sure those are looks for the younger crowd. While I am a huge fan of ballet flats, I know they have their detractors. If you are not keen on the ballet style but can use a pair of simple flat shoes to wear with shorts, knee or above the knee length skirts or dresses, or pants, try another style. Some that I like are pointy flats, colorful loafers, D’Orsay flats (with curved cutouts over the arch of the foot) and sandals. Flats in metallic leather will go with everything in your wardrobe this summer. I have pulled out my silver metallic flats four years in a row. In fact, I wore them today. Take your time when looking for and purchasing shoes. Find out what the store’s return policy is before paying for them. Ideally, you will be able to wear them around your house to determine if they are truly as comfortable as they felt in the store. Wear clothing you plan on wearing with your desired shoes when you shop. If you are seeking chukka boots, shop in jeans. If you want flats to wear with a new pair of cropped pants, wear those on your shopping venture. Keeping all of this shoe advice in mind, I think you will have very few shoe regrets in the future.

Girlfriend Guru
BY RIVEN BARTON, PhD. rivendruien@gmail.com
Quality over quantity Dear Girlfriend Guru, A good friend of mine has recently been dating a man who is 20 years older than her, and I have been dating someone who is 10 years younger than me. We have been joking about the 30-year gap between our boyfriends’ ages and it brought up the question: how old is too old and how young is too young? When does an age gap become too much? Signed, Not Too Old Yet Dear Not Too Old, The age gap question is an interesting one with as many answers as there are ages. For instance, a friend of mine uses the formula: half your age plus seven years. Which means if you are 40, it’s ok to date a 27 year old but no one younger. Interestingly enough this same formula is featured in the Urban Dictionary followed by such words as “cougar, milf, manther, butterface, pedo, decent, and geezer...” Huh. Other formulas can be found in articles such as the one in the March 2013 edition of the Huffington Post entitled: “Ideal Age Gap for Couples Revealed.” According to journalist Gena Kaufman, “Despite the unfortunate rise of the cougar phe-
nomenon ... it seems as a society, we’re still more into May-December relations when the guy is the December.” Which means, that women still prefer older men in general, according to the poll conducted by the Post; “Specifically, four years and four months older.” So there you have it: half your age plus seven years, or four years and four months older if you are a woman. No. The truth is everyone has their own theories and their own experiences. My rule? It’s about how you relate. If you are dating a guy and he creepily reminds you too much of your dad or a kid you used to babysit, then the age gap probably isn’t right for you. Or, if you just find that you can’t relate. If your taste in music, friends and activities just seems to be cursed by a generation gap, then it might be time to look at the age thing again. The truth is it is not about physical years but the way in which someone feels and relates. I know some very young 60-year-olds and some ancient 20-year-olds. It’s about finding someone who you connect with and feel comfortable around. Have fun. Liberate yourself from numbers and focus more on the person you’re with. Good Luck, G.G.

Canalino students celebrate the too-short life of school secretary Maria Sanchez during the June 10 Canalino Relay for Life benefiting the American Cancer Society. The school-wide event was the first of its kind in Santa Barbara County. It was dedicated to Sanchez, who lost her long battle with cancer on June 1. The Canalino Relay also served to raise awareness for the Carpinteria Relay for Life, a 24-hour event that is scheduled to begin on July 19 at Aliso School. Joel Conroy

CVN goes from Paris to Normandy
Fred and Shirley Strickler brought their CVN to Paris, where they sampled sidewalk cafes and historic sites, before they boarded a riverboat on the Seine that was destined for Normandy. Along the river, historical villages built with cobblestone streets dominated the countryside. They visited the home of impressionist painter Claude Monet in Giverny and paid tribute to Joan of Arc in Rouen, where she was burned at the stake. Omaha Beach and the Normandy American Cemetery provided perspective on the magnitude and meaning of D-Day.

Here today, gone tomorrow CHS seniors head to universities
It’s difficult to detect in this photograph, but each of the Carpinteria High School seniors here has sprouted a pair of wings. They are growing stronger day by day, and next fall they will spread those wings and fly. They are headed to universities near and far and will soon be surrounded by similarly inquisitive, talented, ambitious and bright students from around the world.
Coastal View News has watched these future movers and shakers grow from little AYSO players, science fair competitors and Math Super Bowl winners. We congratulate them for their impressive achievements and look forward to following their high-flying futures.

RAMS CAte SChool Cate headmaster Ben Williams invoked Alexandra Fuller’s 2008 book “the legend of Colton h. Bryant” when addressing the Class of 2014. “Perhaps he was not a legend in any single moment of his life, but in retrospect—in the totality of those moments—a legend he has become. It took Colton 26 years to be unforgettable. each of you will—God willing—have far longer than that. And you begin with advantages
that Colton Bryant did not have. yet were each of you to build the very kind of legacy that Colton did, it would be a marvelous lifelong achievement. Maybe what is required of you right now is to consider that very possibility—to imagine forward, look back and learn from what you see. legends like Colton Bryant aren’t built overnight after all, but they are built. And it happens one moment at a time, one interaction at a time.
the most fascinating thing about Colton’s legend—and perhaps each of yours, too—is that he never knew he was building it. there has to be a lesson in that for all of us as we take our next steps in this life. the truth may more often than not lie in the rearview mirror, in the wake we leave behind rather than the way we see ahead. So imagine away, advance as you choose—for you have much to offer the world and your fel-
low man—but remember too the legend of Colton Bryant, which was simple and gracious and full of care. though he never knew it, he has much to teach us. And we, thankfully, have much still to learn. Good luck and Godspeed to you, members of the Class of 2014, each and all legends in the making.” - exCeRPt FRoM heADMASteR

RINCON & FOOTHILL HIGH SCHOOLS Dear Class of 2014, Class of 2014, you will be greatly missed. you are a unique group, not only for what you accomplished, but also for how you accomplished it. you took care of each other. In an era when it has become easy for young people to focus on individual needs and wants, you chose to leave no one behind. The cohesiveness, camaraderie and caring your class demonstrated is something for which you will long be remembered. Until now, your education has been carefully planned for you. you generally knew what was going to be taught and how you would be assessed so that you could prove
you had learned something. Thank your teachers and parents for that. The funny thing about the real world is that there are no longer daily objectives written on the board to guide you. Learning becomes more difficult to quantify, and most real life tests are unannounced, especially tests involving character, ethics and empathy for others. Set your goals high and strive to develop your skills and potential, but be careful how you measure success. Here is a challenge for you. Rather than being the “best in the world,” strive to be the “best for the world.” In so doing, you will be constantly challenged to independently develop your unique talents and only you will be able
to judge the success of your life. Also, by matching your unique capabilities to the challenges of the changing world, you will more likely live life to the fullest and improve the lives of those around you. Congratulations, graduates of Rincon and Foothill High Schools! The diplomas you received yesterday represent years of hard work, commitment, dedication and achievement. They also mark an exiting turning point in your lives. I know I speak for the entire Rincon/Foothill and Carpinteria community when I say, “We are so proud of you!” KRISTIN H. MAyVILLE, PRINCIPAL RINCON HIGH SCHOOL FOOTHILL HIGH SCHOOL

One isn’t necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can’t be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest. - Maya Angelou
