Local woman survives black bear attack close to home
Scouting for surf
By LeA BOyd
A Carpinteria woman returning home from a hike up Rincon Canyon was attacked by a black bear at around 12:30 p.m. on Sept. 22. The bear scratched and bit Emily Miles, who ultimately fended off the 300-pound animal and ran to the safety of a nearby home. “I’m very, very lucky, and I know that,” said Miles. “That bear DuGRé could’ve eaten me alive emily Miles on Sept. 6 in two minutes.” The California Departat Carp-A-Cabana. ment of Fish and Wildlife has set live traps in an attempt to capture the bear. Bear DNA collected from Miles will be used in the effort to identify the correct animal, which, if located, will then be euthanized. Fish and Wildlife representative Janice Mackey said that any bear that attacks a human

The salty fun celebrated a successful cookie sale season and gave the young water women an opportunity to develop new athletic skills.
MacMurrays named Avofest honorary chairs
Tim MacMurray has an empty space on the wall of his office just waiting to be filled on the first weekend in October. The 2014 California Avocado Festival poster that ultimately adorns the wall will mark the year that Tim and wife Wendy served as the festival’s honorary chairs and joined an elite list of Carpinterians who have helped to define the valley’s avocado industry. “I was thrilled,” said Tim of being selected as this year’s co-chair. Tim grew up in New York and didn’t meet his first avocado until he moved to California in 1970. Wendy, on the other hand, is essentially avocado royalty. She is the daughter of the late George Bliss, a longtime Carpinterian who left an indelible mark on the avo industry and Carpinteria as a whole. Tim and Wendy were set up on a blind date in the 1970s, and eventually, Tim laughs, “I married into avocados.” Bliss founded Carpinteria Motor Transport, an agricultural trucking businesses, which Tim and Wendy now operate as CMT. These days, they haul avocados exclusively. CMT trucks pick up avos from ranches
between Cayucos and San Diego, and handle at least 75 percent of the fruit produced in Carpinteria, according to Tim. Most of the avocados are then delivered to the Calavo packinghouse in Santa Paula. In one day, CMT can move 700,000 avocados from ranch to packinghouse. The couple’s Casitas Pass Road home, in which Wendy’s father was raised, is surrounded by 50 acres of avocados that remain in the Bliss/MacMurray family. “We eat avocados daily,” said Wendy. Like many, Wendy’s favorite avocado dish is guacamole. Tim enjoys slicing an avocado in half, taking out the pit, filling the cavity with Italian dressing and scooping out the meat. The MacMurrays are proud to represent a festival that promotes the avocado industry, educates consumers and brings tourist dollars to Carpinteria. In their lives, the avocado has played a critical role. Wendy said, “The avocado put our kids through school and food on the table.” ––Lea Boyd

Notorious South Coast landlord Dario Pini has filed an appeal in Santa Barbara court challenging City of Carpinteria administrative fees charged to him for inspections and enforcement of building code violations. The city has been enforcing code violations at four Pini-owned apartment properties near the intersection of Carpinteria Avenue and Concha Loma Drive in efforts that have taxed code enforcement staff time. At a March 12 code compliance hearing, independent hearing officer Clare MacDonald ruled that Pini was on the hook for $27,000 in administrative fees to cover staff time, which MacDonald found to be well documented and appropriate, considering the number of times staff has had to check to see whether deadlines had been met in bringing the buildings up to code. Pini has objected to the fees in his appeal to Santa Barbara Superior Court, a move Carpinteria City Manager Dave Durflinger called “a pretty typical part of the process.” The City Council held a private hearing to discuss its settlement options last week. The properties in question are Cypress Tree, Tomarla, La Concha and Sycamore apartments. Pini also owns Casa Del Sol Motel, which is adjacent to the apartment buildings. City inspections began in response to complaints of subpar conditions and exterior appearances from residents and neighbors of the properties.

Throughout the morning of Sunday, Sept. 28, Linden Avenue and Third Street will both be closed to through traffic for the Carpinteria Triathlon. Residents of the beach neighborhood are asked to use an alternative route to exit and enter their properties. Drivers coming from the beach neighborhood should use Dorrance Way to cross the railroad tracks at Linden Avenue, then turn onto 5th Street. Anyone accessing the beach should enter on 5th Street through the detour to Dorrance Way.

Nearly 15 years after its inception, the Rincon Point Septic to Sewer Conversion Project is now complete and fully operational. The project removed on-site septic systems and provides public sewer service to 72 existing residences in the Rincon Point community. “After many years of fits and starts in the entitlement, permitting and funding stages of this complex project, the actual construction of the sewer infrastructure went remarkably well, with the work being completed on time and within budget projections.” said Craig Murray, General Manager of the Carpinteria Sanitary District. Due to its physical location, well over a mile from the nearest sewer main and about 130 feet lower in elevation, connecting Rincon Point to the Carpinteria Sanitary District was an engineering and construction challenge. It was also a costly undertaking, with individual homeowners in the beachside community paying approximately $80,000 per parcel to fund the roughly $6 million conversion program. Final project costs will be mitigated somewhat, however, by a State Water Resources Control Board Grant, through the Clean Beaches Initiative Grant Program. The construction effort was divided into two discrete components. Work outside of the residential community was completed by Tierra Contracting, and Travis Agricultural Construction installed the sewer system within the Rincon Point community. A central sewage pump station was installed in the Rincon Beach Park to convey wastewater uphill. Most of the work was accomplished using trenchless methods.

Council opts out of regional hotel promotion By Peter Dugré
ing in Carpinteria, but Vice Mayor Gregg Carty and Councilmember Al Clark were against participating beyond 2015. Mayor Brad Stein recused himself from the topic due to a conflict of interest. Carty was concerned that there had been a lack of input from Holiday Inn Express and Best Western in Carpinteria, hotels he considered more “destination” hotels than other lodging properties in the area. Holiday Inn had written a letter against participating in the assessment district prior to its initial formation in 2010. Only 50 percent plus one of regional hotels must vote to participate in order for all hotels to have to participate in the regional district. However, the City of Carpinteria must also vote to allow the operation of the district within the city, which its actions on Sept. 22 precluded. Nomura motioned to continue a vote until the next city council meeting in order to give time for representatives of area
hotels to provide input to council, but Clark and Carty voted against continuing the issue. No council member motioned to approve operation of the district within Carpinteria city limits, so the issue was tabled, and Carpinteria hotels will not pay into the assessment district beyond 2015. Clark and Carty had both supported the initial formation of the district. But regarding its continuation, Clark asked, “How much tourism is too much tourism?” He said he believed Carpinteria is “on the map,” as evidenced by people knowing about it wherever he traveled. “We’ve been well promoted, and we’re well known,” he said.
Janega-Dykes advised, “I want to make it clear that if this is not supported, Visit Santa Barbara would not be able to include the City of Carpinteria in any of our marketing materials.” The city council will meet again Oct. 13 when it will consider whether to officially take stances on ballot Measures P and U. “It’s going to be the measures meeting,” commented Stein. Measure P asks voters to ban certain oil extraction techniques for new drilling projects in unincorporated areas of Santa Barbara County, and Measure U is a $90 million bond measure for Carpinteria Unified School District school upgrades.

When the Santa Barbara South Coast Tourism Business Improvement District conducts its hotel assessment and promotion operations between 2015 and 2020, Goleta and Santa Barbara hotels will pay into the system without Carpinteria on board. At the Sept. 22 Carpinteria City Council meeting, the council was unable to find a majority of votes to continue participation in the assessment district, which charges South Coast hotels between $.75 and $4 per room night for tourism promotion. Kathy Janega-Dykes, President and CEO of Visit Santa Barbara, the organization through which most of the funds flow, touted the work of her company as being partially responsible in the uptick in hotel occupancy since 2010. Visit Santa Barbara operates a website and prints a 90-page magazine to promote Santa Barbara’s South Coast in addition to placing advertisements about the Santa Barbara area in target publications. Visit Santa Barbara expected to have an approximately $5 million annual operating budget, of which Carpinteria hotels and vacation rentals were to account for 5 percent starting in 2015. City staff had recommended that the council vote to continue participating in the hotel assessment district, which it has been part of since its inception in 2010. City Manager Dave Durflinger said the city stands to benefit from a boost to tourism when the entire Santa Barbara region is promoted. “In general, we know a lot of promotion of the Santa Barbara region in part benefits Carpinteria. Just how much? It’s hard to know,” Durflinger said. He called it, “more art than science.” A portion of the assessment money paid into the district was allotted to the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce and earmarked for placing advertising specifically promoting Carpinteria rather than the region as a whole. The chamber had received $25,000 annually and was expected to receive $43,000 when the district was renewed at the start of 2015 following an increase in the assessment rate. Assessments to the business district are separated from hotel bed taxes, which are paid to the City of Carpinteria. Hotels are responsible to pay the assessment and did not necessarily have to assess hotel guests on their bills, although many did pass the cost directly to hotel guests. Council members Fred Shaw and Wade Nomura appeared ready to allow the assessment district to continue operat-

School board seeks Summerland representative BY LEA BOYD
Summerlanders will have very little to say about the future of the Carpinteria Unified School District unless someone steps up in the next month to fill the Summerland-specific seat on the five-member board of education. Sally Hinton, who represents the area now, has not sought another term, and no one else threw a hat in the ring for the November election. At its Sept. 23 meeting, the school board opted to open a four-week application window to find an individual to take on the task. The board decided on a longer application window and a shorter term than administrators recommended. The timeline to appoint a new board member for a full four-year term would have allowed for just a two-week period for applicants to pickup, fill-out and return paperwork to be considered. Boardmember Alison Livett’s suggestion for a two-year term—followed by a 2016 election for another two-year term—gained
traction with the rest of the board. She noted that a shorter term leading to an election would allow for more influence from the electorate. Boardmembers also agreed that giving candidates more time to submit paperwork could increase the pool of applicants. The terms of boardmembers Grace Donnelly and Andy Sheaffer will also come to a close this year. Sheaffer’s name will appear on the ballot alongside that of candidates Michelle Robertson and John Stineman. Donnelly chose to complete her term without seeking re-election. Applicants for the uncontested seat must reside in the Summerland area, which extends from Ortega Ridge to the west side of Toro Canyon Road. The board plans to interview and appoint a new boardmember in November. The appointed Summerland representative would then be seated on Dec. 9, when the two other elected board members take their seats.

Measure U is good for Library serves teachers toddlers well
Measure U is a school bond measure to provide many needed improvements to our school district’s facilities. Many of these improvements are replacements for temporary portable classrooms that have been used much longer than their stated useful lifetime. All 63 of these portable classrooms are in various states of deterioration with three currently in failing condition at Canalino School and two at Carpinteria High School. The rest of the portables are generally in poor condition and will need to be replaced sometime in the next 10 years. The five failing classrooms must be replaced soon, but new construction will trigger requirements to make the restrooms Americans with Disabilities Act compliant. This near term expense is the catalyst for pursuing the school bond now. Without the bond, the schools would be faced with the difficult choice of spending operating budget funds that would have gone for teacher cost-of-living salary increases, reducing programs that are not state mandates or increasing class sizes. None of these choices are good for the teachers or the students. Measure U is necessary to maintain the current portion of the operating fund that is spent on teacher salaries and benefits while maintaining small class sizes and programs for students.
John Stineman Carpinteria
A huge thank you to the Carpinteria Library for the joy it has provided to my little grandchildren and me. When my now 3 ½-year-old grandson was 10 months, I was checking out a book when the librarian suggested I take him in for story-time. I thought he was too young, but she said there were others his age in there. He sat on my lap, enthralled. Ever since, we have been going on Thursdays for not only story-time, but puppet shows, crafts and other special events sponsored by Friends of the Library. On Thursday, Sept. 4, Sandcastle Music provided singing and music. I took my 13-month-old granddaughter, and she joined in when silk scarves were passed to the toddlers and pre-school youngsters. All the children had a delightful time dancing and waving the scarves. Our Carpinteria Library is a golden asset for our community, enhanced by support from the Friends of the Library.

Obituary
Reyes Villalpando 1/6/1934- 9/18/2014
The Villalpando family mourns the passing of Reyes Villalpando, beloved brother, husband, father and grandfather. Reyes passed away peacefully on Sept. 18, 2014, in Santa Barbara, Calif., surrounded by his immediate family. Born in Fillmore, Calif., on Jan. 6, 1934, to Jesus and Eloisa Villalpando, Reyes moved with his family (including three brothers and three sisters) to Carpinteria when he was 6 years old. He could often be found helping in the family grocery store near their house on Linden Avenue. After graduating from Carpinteria High School, Reyes went on to receive a B.A. in Education from Fresno State University
In loving memory of
Alejandro Estrada 02/04/1976 to 09/27/2009
No farewell words were spoken No time to say goodbye You were taken from us in a blink of an eye You are forever young, Our guardian angel Who guide us throughout our lives & protect us You have been gone 5 years, but not forgotten. Love, Ama, Ada, Ponch & Kaki A special mass will be held at St. Joseph’s Church, at 1:30pm, Saturday, Sept. 27, 2014.
and a Master’s Degree in Education from San Diego State. Reyes served in the U.S. Army for two years and was honorably discharged in 1958, having spent time in Korea. He then began his teaching career as a fifth grade teacher at McKinley School in Santa Barbara. After seven years at McKinley, Reyes was transferred to Franklin School, where he taught ESL and bilingual first grade for 28 years. Reyes retired in 1994, but his love for teaching children continued to burn brightly. He later went to work as a part-time ESL and reading teacher in the Carpinteria school system. He leaves behind many cherished friends and fellow teachers. While teaching at Franklin, Reyes met the love of his life, Peggy Morin. Their marriage of 47 wonderful years produced five children—four boys and one girl— who helped fill those years with joy and happiness. At the time of his death, Reyes and Peggy still lived in the house in Carpinteria in which they raised their family. A patient and thoughtful man, Reyes enjoyed fishing, gardening, reading and playing the clarinet. He also cared very much for his three dogs. His greatest love outside of his family, however, was likely camping, including month-long excursions through the Western United States in a beige family station wagon, with tent trailer in tow. He is survived by his loving wife, Peggy, five adoring children, 10 doting grandchildren, two sisters and a brother who will all miss him dearly each and every day. Services for Reyes will be held on Sept. 25 at 10 a.m. at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Carpinteria. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Serenity House in Santa Barbara or the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County. Arrangements entrusted to Pueblo del Rey Funeral Services (805) 895-8409.

The practice of happiness Stand up straight. Smile. Say hello to strangers. Do something kind. Appreciate experiences, not stuff. Say thank you. Set clear, concrete goals. Pay attention to the small daily pleasures. If this sounds like life advice your grandmother might give you, she would be right in line with what scientific research has to say about happiness. Do you want to be happy? Do you practice happiness? When I say practice happiness, I don’t mean chasing after it. Even our founding fathers knew the difference. When they wrote in the Declaration of Independence about “the pursuit of happiness,” they really meant the practice of happiness. At that time, the word “pursuit” was used as a synonym for “practice.” They could have just as easily written “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the practice of Happiness.” What does modern research say about happiness? Happiness is a physical experience—it involves the body and the mind. In fact, happiness involves more of the nervous system than many other emotions. This means that how you use your body affects your level of happiness. There is a very strong correlation between physical exercise and happiness, but even simple movements such as taking a more open, relaxed stance and smiling can lead to greater overall happiness. Not only can choosing to smile lead to you feeling better, it also leads to others working better with you in groups. Also, the connection between happiness and regularly expressing gratitude—even as simple as saying thank you—is well documented. There is a particular type of happiness, known as eudemonic happiness, that comes from doing good deeds. This type of happiness is good for you right down to the molecular level. Your immune system is better equipped to fight off illness when you experience eudemonic happiness. And here is the added bonus, not only is being kind and thoughtful good for your health, it makes you feel happier and it even helps the people around you respond better to challenges. Something
Maintaining goals that are specific, within your control and manageable is a great way to boost your happiness. as simple as smiling or saying hello to strangers—even if you don’t feel like it—has a positive impact on your level of happiness. Using your money to help others or to create positive experiences such as family gatherings generates a significant lasting happiness boost, while using money primarily to acquire material things has the opposite effect. Having clear and concrete goals is much better for your level of happiness than having abstract goals. Researchers have found that a goal of “making someone smile” is more effective than a goal of “making someone happy.” Maintaining goals that are specific, within your control and manageable is a great way to boost your happiness. Finally, taking time to reflect on the simple experiences of daily living has been shown to go a long way toward supporting happiness. Whether it is reflecting quietly at the end of the day, looking back over a written journal or pulling out the family photo albums, people who take time to revisit the small pleasures of life report greater overall life satisfaction. If you want to be better at playing the piano, then you practice playing the piano. If you want to be happier, then you practice happiness. And there are many opportunities to do exactly that every day. Dave Mochel has taught classes in neuroscience, wellbeing and leadership for 25 years.

What you should know about suicide Part 2: Prevention and treatment By ADMHS StAff
Santa Barbara County Department of Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Services advises awareness when trying to prevent those around us from taking their own lives. “We have to look out for each other,” advised Irwin Lunianski, MD. He suggests a comprehensive approach:
lethal drugs, because overdose is a major means of suicide. • Community organizations like church groups and YMCA camps can administer questionnaires that include screening for depression and link at-risk individuals to counseling.
• Family members should be sensitive to family dynamics. If something changes in a family member’s behavior, it may be a sign that he or she needs professional help.
• Examples of societal actions include reducing the prevalence of guns, constructing suicide barriers on bridges and tall buildings and reducing the stigma associated with seeking help for mental health conditions.
• Teachers should monitor students for unusual behavior and link them to counseling when needed.
Promising treatments available
• Medical professionals must exercise great caution prescribing potentially
“As for treatment, the first thing we have to do is find out if a person is depressed, because depression is the
most important psychological element of suicide,” explained Dr. Lunianski. “Research indicates that it is very helpful for individuals to tell their stories, learn problem-solving skills, change negative thought patterns and be encouraged to engage in social interactions.” Once a person seeks help, some very promising therapies are available, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
Continuing research is critical
The ability to understand, treat and prevent suicidal behavior will be advanced by continued research into contributing biological, psychological
and social factors. “If an ADMHS client commits suicide, we conduct a thorough investigation to better our understanding and share information with staff members to strengthen prevention efforts,” Dr. Lunianski noted.

At right, Matt Roberts, Director of the Carpinteria Parks and Recreation Department, informed the Morning Rotary, including club President Art Fisher, at left, of plans to build a lessons and therapy pool.
Potential pool presented to Morning Rotary
Rotary of Carpinteria Morning heard from Parks and Recreation Department Director Matt Roberts about his vision for a lessons and therapy pool in Carpinteria. Toddlers and seniors, he said, would benefit from a small, ramp accessible, warm pool for first lessons and physical therapy. Roberts, who started as a local beach lifeguard, explained the plans for a small, state of the art, solar heated pool for lessons and water play during the day and therapy use for seniors and others in the evening. “This multi-use pool would be a great service to our community,” Roberts said.

Batten down the hatches: El Niño is coming `
garden gossip CHRIS & LISA CULLEN According to NOAA (National Oceanic Atmospheric Association) there is a 65 percent chance of a mild El Niño this winter. This is good news for a number of reasons. A full-blown El Niño could create havoc after years of dry weather, and though we need as much rain as we can get, a mild El Niño is better than none at all.
Common myth: Move water off your property
The standard landscape architectural model works to carry water away from your property through a combination of drains and pipes sending precious water down the storm drains and into the ocean. This might make sense in England or the Northwest where the rainfall totals are extreme. But here, where in a normal year we only get 17 inches, wouldn’t it make more sense to capture and retain the water on your land?
you should be doing now. If you have living soil and deep mulch, you can get away with once-a-month watering. • Be sure to check your irrigation system for leaks. Chris and Lisa Cullen, owners of Montecito Landscape, have been creating beautiful gardens for over 40 years. Listen to Garden Gossip radio show on AM1290 every Friday at 11 a.m. and 9 p.m. and Saturday at 11 a.m. Do you have a question about your garden? Contact us at 969-3984 or lisacullen@ montecitolandscape.com. Or via snail mail: 1187 Coast Village Rd. Ste. 160, Montecito, CA 93108
BEFORE AND AFTER: Top left, lawn from edge to edge made this Montecito garden awfully thirsty. Above, a drought makeover reduced the water requirements on this garden, and permeable walkways mean that rainwater isn’t whisked out to sea but percolates back into groundwater.
Water harvesting
Water harvesting doesn’t just mean putting out rain barrels and cisterns (though this is a great thing to do). It also means keeping the rain water we do get on your property by channeling it back into the water table. There are many ways to do this. One is to create a series of berms and swales, which capture rainwater in a passive manner. Water can then be directed where you wish, and when the berms are heavily mulched, water is not lost due to evaporation. Permeable walkways, such as faux creekbeds, meandering gravel pathways, patios and the like allow water to penetrate, thus ensuring none of the water is allowed to run off. This may seem like an alien concept, but if we all strove to keep rainwater on our properties, rather than encouraging it to run off, the water table would be in better shape and so would our trees.
Trees
Big trees have massive roots that depend on the groundwater deep beneath the surface. As the water table continues to be depleted, it is the trees that suffer. Street trees are not going to be saved by a little sprinkler at their trunk. They need groundwater to survive.
Now is the time
Now is the time to do a water run-off assessment. Re-work drains so that they outlet in your garden, not on the street. Create faux creeks, meandering berms and swales, and permeable surfaces so that the rain that we do get this winter will soak into the ground and be of benefit next summer. Until next time, fill your garden with joy (and rain water)!
To do list
• Work compost into your soil and mulch deeply. Biodynamic compost is best as it has lots of microorganisms, minerals and other beneficial properties that bring your soil to life. • Deep-water trees and hedges early morning or late afternoon. Try to hold off heavy pruning, as this encourages new growth. Until it starts raining, leave things alone as much as possible. Laying compost and mulch are the only things

Spicy avo caprese salad
It includes fresh tomatoes and mozzarella. Then I substitute avocado slices for the basil leaves and add a spicy vinaigrette with chipotle adobo sauce and a touch of honey. When I first described it to my wife, Robin, she asked, “Why ruin a perfectly good Caprese salad?” One taste and she understood exactly why. One word of caution—well, more than one word. Purchase a small can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and only use the sauce (not the peppers), unless you like it super spicy!

Here’s a fun and different recipe for those end-of-the-season fresh tomatoes in your garden. It is a spicy takeoff of the classic Italian Caprese salad.
Chipotle honey-vinaigrette caprese salad Ingredients
3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar 2 Tablespoons honey 6 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil ½ teaspoon dried oregano ¾ teaspoons salt ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper 1 Tablespoon chipotle adobo sauce 1 garlic clove, minced 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced ¼-inch thick 2 large ripe tomatoes, sliced ¼-inch thick 1 ripe avocado, peeled, pit removed and sliced lengthwise into wedges 2 Tablespoons cilantro, chopped for garnish
Directions
Combine the first eight ingredients (through garlic) in a mini food processor and process until smooth. Set this dressing aside. Arrange tomatoes and mozzarella in a circular design around the edge of a chilled salad plate. Overlay avocado slices in the center of the plate. Drizzle chipotle dressing over salad and garnish with cilantro. This recipe makes two salads. Recipe may be doubled to serve four or more.

“Where Spirits Climb,” by Greg Singley
Singley art on display at En Plein Air
Carpinteria-based artist Greg Singley depicted a Chumash Legend on canvas in his latest work, which can be viewed at en plein Air Gallery, 963 Linden Ave. the piece, “Where Spirits Climb,” is a post-impressionist landscape of Rainbow Rock, the summit to which Chumash believed their spirits climbed in order to walk the rainbow bridge to the Channel islands, where spirits became dolphins, according to Singley. A reputed floral impressionist, Singley was originally influenced by Contemporary Southwest works, including American indian works, which he has painted in recent years. he said his quest is to paint Carpinteria and the surrounding area with his brush, and Rainbow Rock, overlooking the city, is a bold start.

Mike Lazaro knows how to throw a party! He’s the California Avocado Festival’s Operations and Entertainment Director. Mike makes his living running food and beverage operations for major events from Dallas to Detroit. For the last 25 years, Lazaro has returned home to quarterback Carpinteria’s annual street fair. This year ’s celebration will take place on Linden Avenue from Friday, Oct. 3 through Sunday, Oct. 5. Lazaro says the celebration will be even tighter and mightier. “It’s going to be meaner and greener than ever,” he mused. AvoFest is renowned for its four free stages of continuous live music. Love to dance? The Main Stage has a wooden floor to wiggle your toes. The Seal Fountain Stage features artists playing genres from alt-folk to power rock and electric blues. Want to escape the rays? Grab a beverage and slip into the tented Guac and Grotto Stage. There you’ll hear Americana, folk-rock and country sets played by great singer/songwriters. There’s even music in the kids area. The Little Pits Stage will have a new look and feature daily singalongs and magical offerings. This year’s musical acts have a familiar ring with several new twists. It’s impossible to sit still when The Upbeat performs. The local ska band often draws the festival’s biggest crowds. Hear them on Saturday afternoon on the Main Stage. The Flashbacks are coming back. This legendary Carpinteria band will take you down memory lane with Latin classics like “Hot-Hot-Hot.” If you like to line-dance, head over to the Grotto Stage on Saturday to hear the Dusty Jugz. Local bassman Roger Gilbert and rhythm guitarist Curtis Lopez anchor this talented local country act. Blues guitarist Rick Reeves bends guitar strings like B.B. King. His band includes Canned Heat member Fito de la Parra, who played at Woodstock in ’69. Reeve’s All-Stars invades the Main Stage Saturday night. Lazaro said culling the festival acts was a challenge this year. “We had over 300 artists who requested festival sets. That’s a logistical impossibility.” He’s big on Rainrider, which features members of national touring acts Los Lobos, Counting Crows and Crazy Horse. Local singer/songwriter Justin Sinclair’s new modern folk trio is called The Portion. They recently released their first EP. “They have a Mumford and Sons

Mestizo will play on Saturday, Oct. 4 at 12: vibe, and their songs have such a positive message,” Lazaro said. The Portion will play Saturday on the Grotto Stage. Both bands Pacific Haze and Afishnsea the Moon both got their starts at past AvoFests. Afishnsea will return to play on Friday evening and Haze on Saturday night. Carpinteria songwriter Jamey Geston will play a primetime set on Saturday evening on the Main Stage. This talented teen recently opened for folk legend Judy Collins at The Canyon Club. First year Avofest artists include the quirky Ojai act, Hatter’s Tea, who will perform early Friday afternoon.

Next week: Warrior, Cate football defend home turfs September 25 - October 1, 2014
Warrior girls golfers swing into season BY PETER DUGRÉ
Behind new coach Steve Benzin, a golf pro at Tee Time, Warrior girls golfers are working to improve their game one stroke at a time. “All I told them is that I want them to learn to play and get better,” Benzin said. He applauded the program he inherited after the departure of nine-year coach Christine Gahan. Gahan left the program with a core group of athletes, he said. The team found success in its first match of the season on Sept. 17 at Fillmore High School. In the 319 to 321 victory, Marcela Gonzales led the way with a 57, followed by Elizabeth Esquivel (59) and Yarely Aviles (64). Aviles is team captain and “really herds everybody and makes sure they show up and do what they’re supposed to do,” Benzin said. Also factoring into the Warriors’ scores in varsity tournaments are Juliet Parsons, Yaned Trenado and Marisol Gutierrez. This year the team had 16 players come out, but only six had ever handled a golf club before, according to Benzin. Part of the scramble of fielding a Carpinteria High School golf team is gathering enough clubs together and gaining experience on courses. The team’s practices are held at Tee Time driving range, and matches take place at Montecito Country Club. “These kids work hard and really want to learn the game and are competitive,” he said. League teams La Reina High School and St. Bonaventure pose challenges. Benzin said those teams likely have sea-

that are freshman now that will win league championship by the time they get out of school,” concluded Benzin.
Warriors take home opener, 45-24, over Oak Park BY ALONZO OROZCO
The Warrior Football faithful had reason to be concerned last week, as Carpinteria High School limped into its home opener against former Tri-Valley League nemesis Oak Park with a slew of injuries and a 48-6 loss to Nipomo the previous week. But with a revamped offense and a suddenly stingy defense, the home team won by a score of 45-24 on Sept. 19 in front of a delighted crowd at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium. It was only the third victory over the now-Canyon League Eagles for the Warriors in the last 10 years. “We blocked a little bit better this week than we did last week,” explained Carpinteria coach Ben Hallock. “We were down to two running backs, but Rudy (Beltran) did a really nice job and Aaron (Vargas) picked up a lot of tough yards,” added Hallock of his two replacement backs filling in for Richie Gallardo and Oscar Garcia. Vargas ended up being the leading rusher on the night with 115 yards on 12 carries, while Beltran netted 106 yards on 15 carries, each tallying a touchdown apiece. Beltran’s 2-yard TD run opened the scoring, capping a 74-yard drive at the 5:38 mark of the first quarter. Oak Park answered back on a couple of heaves from quarterback Jacob Lund, the second one ending up in the hands of Nick DeSpain for a 26-yard score to tie it at 7-7. Carpinteria responded quickly when quarterback Jimmy Graves found a wide-open Omar Miranda, who sprinted 57 yards after the catch to put the Warriors back in front 14-7. However, the Eagles took to the air themselves, tying the score on Lund’s 75-yard bomb to wide receiver Lucas Flamer. Following a successful onside kick, Oak Park’s John Abate closed out the scoring in the first quarter, booting a 29-yard field goal to put the Eagles up 17-14. Carpinteria wasted little time regaining the lead as Graves’ 10-yard TD jaunt put the Warriors back in front 21-17 with 9:46 until halftime. With the Oak Park offense going three-and-out, Carpinteria earned good

Warrior running back Rudy Beltran scored a touchdown in the Warriors’ 45-24 home victory over Oak Park on Sept. 19. field position. A questionable fumble call, accompanied by two Warrior sideline unsportsmanlike conduct penalties put the Eagles on the Warrior 10-yard line. Oak Park running back Cameron Fatemi would cash it in from there to put the visitors back in front 24-21 with 7:26 still left until halftime.
Warrior Jason Martinez’s 26-yard field goal knotted the game at 24 as the two teams volleyed back and forth. Then Miranda’s 61-yard touchdown catch off a deflection gave the Warriors the lead at the half, 31-24.

Cate wins at Trona
Farmers contributes to athletics
CVN REPORT
BILL SWING
Representatives of the Carpinteria branch of Farmers Insurance made their annual trek onto the grass at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium during this year’s Sept. 19 home opener against Oak Park High School. Farmers makes yearly contributions to Carpinteria High School athletics, and this year the big check was made out for $3,000. Pictured at the check exchange are, from left, Maria Juarez, David Jaskolski, CHS athletic director Pat Cooney, CHS Principal Gerardo Cornejo, Jessica Flores and Joshua Manzo.
CHS and Cate split Carpinteria Valley Invitational
Carpinteria High School had faster boys, and Cate School had faster girls at the Carpinteria Valley Invitational cross country meet at Viola Field on Sept. 17. Boys winner Francisco Arroyo, of CHS, covered the scenic 3-mile course in 18:36.1. Cate’s Charlotte Monke set the girls pace at 21:30.3. Warrior boys won as a team, 26-29, and Cate’s girls won 27-28. Other top Warrior finishers were second-place boys Sam Truax (19:00.1) and fourth place Arturo Saldaña (19:43.9). In the girls race, top Warrior runner Mikela Keefer finished second in 22:13.6. She was followed by third-place Gaby Fantone (22:55.9) and fourth-place Alondra Campuzano (23:11). In boys, Cate’s Rei Imada finished third (19:28.1) and Dylan Ell finished fifth (19:48.1). For Cate girls, Rainbow Wang finished fifth (23:21.8) and Jessica Liou finished sixth (23:28.7).
Cate School Athletes of the Week
Following a four-hour bus ride, Cate School 8-man football players did not miss a beat in the 47-20 win at Trona High School. “The Cate offense started as hot as the 95 degree weather,” said Cate assistant coach Dave Soto. Weather conditions also gave way to rain on an all dirt field that presented the Rams with an unfamiliar environment. The Rams scored on their first three possessions. Cate’s Dean Smith opened up the scoring with a 63-yard scamper. That was followed up by two touchdowns from Kian O’Connor. Cate picked up where it left off after an hour-long rain delay, with Oliver Welch catching two balls in the end zone. Trona got on the scoreboard mid way through the second quarter, but Smith answered right back with another score, and the Rams took a solid 41-6 lead into the locker room at halftime. The second half was mostly a defensive stalemate. The only Cate score came from Smith after he intercepted an errant Tornado throw and returned it for a touchdown. Trona scored in the third and fourth quarters, but it wasn’t enough as Cate climbed out of “The Pit” with a convincing 47-20 win. “This was a great way to pick up our first win of the season,” commented Soto. “There were plenty of reasons for this game to not go our way, but I’m proud of the way our guys hung in there and fought hard.” Cate is back home on Saturday, Sept. 27, against Animo Leadership. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m.

A reader sends a halo to Jen Gonzalez. “Thank you for treating your girls to such a VIP evening. We all love you so.”
A reader sends a pitchfork to the clerk at a local shop who made the reader’s son cry. “He is only 6 years old and just asked if the shirt was on sale. You have the patience of a gnat.”
A reader sends a halo to Mark and the kind gentleman, both of whom saw the reader struggling to attach a tray to a stroller and stopped, offered assistance and got it on when the reader could not.
A reader sends a pitchfork to Carpinteria for not having a Miss Teen Carpinteria or Miss Junior Teen Carpinteria. “It would be a good idea to have one.”
A reader sends a halo to the De Alba house on Dorrance Way for so many great years and countless memories. “It was the place everyone was welcome, and all who entered were family when they left. Carpinteria has lost something irreplaceable.” A reader sends a halo to amazing Canalino Principal Jamie Persoon who has made a school that welcomes all families and encourages “Canalino community” with fun events. “We are truly lucky to have a principal who is so invested and cares so much.” A reader sends a halo to all of the families who attended Canalino School’s first Family Picnic Lunch. “Your presence sent a positive message to students that their education is important to you. Thank you.” A reader sends a halo to Allen Braithwaite of Carpinteria Landscape Nursery. “Unloading heavy garden materials at a customer’s home after the nursery closed was the definition of kindness.”
Pay it forward a trainer’s journal
ROB BURKE I’ve always been very in touch with my body and its capabilities. As someone with Parkinson’s disease, I do not take any random movements for granted. Because of this appreciation, my disease is a gift that motivates me to help those who don’t know how to workout. I’m here to take them under my wing where others would rather watch as they take up valuable workout space during prime time; those who would make Jack LaLanne roll over in his grave, if he hadn’t been cremated, but I digress. Typically, I see guys who are lifting too heavy or just lack the basic understanding of kinesiology. As a result, they are wasting their time doing stupid, ineffective movements that they saw on some “bro’s” YouTube page. These guys are my typical intervention, but every once in a while, I come across someone who makes me think about whether I have any business intervening. This person makes me ques-
tion my experience or whether I have the required skill set to even call myself a trainer. George had Multiple Sclerosis, a debilitating disease where the messaging between the brain and central nervous system are disrupted. At age 36, he had difficulty walking without the assistance of crutches or a walker. He couldn’t balance. He couldn’t stand fully upright. And contributing to all of these challenges, the disease wouldn’t allow for the mind-muscle connection that is absolutely essential for engaging the muscles into proper and effective movement. George needed someone to teach him how to move again. He needed to grow confidence in his movement and believe that he could stabilize and strengthen his body and possibly regenerate some of the neuro-muscular connections through high-intensity resistance training. George didn’t believe I could help him. It was his mother, a client, who brought him to me. When I met George, he was 50 pounds overweight and had been jobless and homeless for four years. He had just given up on life. George couldn’t afford my fees, but I told him that if he did just one thing, I would help him for free. That one thing was “pay it forward.” Many of you have seen the movie of the same name, but George didn’t understand what I meant so I explained it to him.
A reader sends a pitchfork to smokers who think the dirt around public benches and picnic tables are ashtrays. “You are littering and expecting others to clean up after your discouraged and unhealthy habit.” A reader sends a pitchfork to the people in front of Starbucks yelling at a handicapped person with a parking permit because she was not “handicapped enough” to be parking in the designated spot. “Shame on you; that is not how we act in Carpinteria.” A reader sends a pitchfork to Cox Cable for failing to put the last six Dodger baseball games of the season on when they are made available to them for free. “Thanks for nothing.”

“It’s very simple. You will take what I teach you and pass it on to someone else who can benefit, and you will do it because someone did it for you.” His response was expected. “I know nothing,” he said. “I can’t even step up on a curb.” He had fallen off of a curb the prior month and sustained injuries that landed him in hospital. George recovered but was doubtful that anything would change. I too was beginning to question my promises and pondered if he might be right. What if I couldn’t help him walk again? What if crutches and curbs would be his lifelong nemesis? George’s first day was a disaster. I put him on a bike to see how he commenced into movement. He fell off of the bike. At that moment, I feared that George’s condition was bigger than me. Stubbornness or perseverance pushed me to schedule a second session. This time we started with machines so that he could understand the fixed movement and begin to think about which muscles were working to connect the brain to those movements. I used little to no weight and asked him to close his
coastalview.com
eyes and move each limb unilaterally and deliberately to mentally visualize each muscle fiber going through the full range of movement. This was the start of something big. George started to cry, and I asked him if he was alright. “Are you hurt?” I asked. Through his sobbing, he said, “No, I’m not hurt—the opposite. I can feel it. I can feel what you’re talking about. I’m connecting. I get it.” “But why are you crying?” “I have hope,” he said while wiping the tears from his cheeks. I was ecstatic, but at the same time, I knew there was no turning back for either of us. As time would show, this was going to change our lives forever. Continued next month.

NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY SANTA BARBARA COUNTY RELIABILITY PROJECT DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has prepared a draft Environmental Impact report (EIr) under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for consideration of Southern California Edison Company’s (SCE) application to build and operate the Santa Barbara County reliability Project (proposed project). The purpose of the proposed project is to ensure the availability of safe and reliable electrical service and to help meet customer electrical demand to those customers served by the goleta Substation. Brief Project Description and Location The proposed project would include the following activities: • Removal and/or replacement of existing 66-kilovolt (kV) subtransmission structures facilities, primarily within existing utility rights-of-way between the existing Santa Clara Substation in ventura County and the existing Carpinteria Substation in Santa Barbara County. • Installation of marker balls on overhead wire where determined necessary. • Modification of subtransmission and substation equipment within the existing Carpinteria Substation, Casitas Substation, and Santa Clara Substation. • Replacement of line protection relays within existing substation equipment rooms or cabinets at the getty Substation, goleta Substation, Ortega Substation, and Santa Barbara Substation. • Installation of telecommunications facilities to connect the proposed project to the applicant’s existing telecommunications system for the protection, monitoring, and control of subtransmission and substation equipment. • Installation of new telecommunications facilities along reconstructed subtransmission segments and at the Carpinteria Substation, Casitas Substation, Santa Clara Substation, and ventura Substation. • Transfer of distribution lines (and third-party infrastructure as necessary) to new subtransmission structures. • Removal of subtransmission infrastructure, such as tower foundation footings, decommissioned during previous 66-kV reconstruction activities between 1999 and 2004. The subtransmission components of the proposed project have been subdivided into seven geographically defined portions within Santa Barbara and ventura counties: • Segment 1 spans from the Santa Clara Substation in the east to the Casitas Substation in the west. • Segment 2 spans from the Casitas Substation in the east to the point where Segments 2, 3B, and 4 converge near Casitas Pass in the west. • Segment 3A spans from the Carpinteria Substation in the west to the Santa Barbara County/ventura County border in the east. • Segment 3B spans from the Santa Barbara County/Ventura County border in the west to the Y in the east. • Segment 4 spans from the Y in the east to the Carpinteria Substation in the west. • Segment 5 spans from Segment 3B to Segment 4 and adjacent to Segment 4 for approximately 1 mile. • The “Getty Tap” is located approximately in the middle of Segment 1. In addition, the proposed project includes work to be conducted at eight existing substations: • Santa Clara Substation: Located on Elizabeth Road, approximately 0.5 miles from Elizabeth road and Foothill road in unincorporated ventura County. • Getty Substation: Located approximately 1 mile east of the terminus of Oil Field road in unincorporated ventura County. • Casitas Substation: Located on State Route 33, southwest of Park View Drive in unincorporated ventura County. • Ventura Substation: Located on S. Ventura Avenue, northwest of E. Santa Clara Street in the City of ventura. • Carpinteria Substation: Located on Foothill Road/State Route 192, northwest of Linden Avenue in the City of Carpinteria. • Ortega Substation: Located in an unincorporated area west of the City of Carpinteria. • Santa Barbara Substation: Located in the City of Santa Barbara at Edison Avenue and E. Montecito Street. • Goleta Substation: Located in unincorporated Santa Barbara County north of the City of goleta off of SCE Powerline Service road. Significant Adverse Environmental Impacts from the Proposed Project The Draft EIR has identified a significant and unavoidable impact on air quality as a result of the proposed project. The proposed project would result in criteria pollutant emissions during the first year of construction that would exceed the applicable construction emission thresholds. Impacts on air quality standards would be significant and unavoidable during the first year of construction after the implementation of all feasible mitigation. Additionally, the first year of construction would result in a net increase of criteria pollutant emissions for which the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control district is in nonattainment under state ambient air quality standards, and would be cumulatively considerable after the implementation of all feasible mitigation. Potentially significant impacts with regards to Aesthetics; Biological Resources; Cultural Resources; Geology, Soils, and Mineral Resources; Hazards and Hazardous Materials; Noise; Public Services and Utilities; Recreation; and Transportation and Traffic that would result from construction, operation, and maintenance of the proposed project were identified. With the implementation of mitigation and applicant proposed measures, impacts related to these resources would be less than significant. No portion of the proposed project would be located on a hazardous materials site pursuant to government Code Section 65962.5. Draft EIR Information/ Public Review Period/ Public Meeting Starting September 26, 2014, the draft EIr will be available on the internet at: http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/Environment/info/ene/sbcrp/sbcrp.html, and hardcopies of the draft EIr will be available at the following repositories: • Carpinteria Public Library: 5141 Carpinteria Ave., Carpinteria, CA 93013 (805) 684-4314 • E.P.

Longing for leviathans CHUCK GRAHAM
unpredictable wilderness Sometimes I wonder how many times I’ve crossed the Santa Barbara Channel, either by boat or paddling my kayak. With each crossing there’s always the possibility of seeing something incredible, but there’s never any guarantee. In fact, sometimes I’ll go weeks without seeing anything except the perpetual California sea lions mugging the red harbor buoy. Yet, more time spent on the water means increasing the chances of a wildlife run-in. My first choice is always orcas in some capacity. That’s only been on a handful of occasions, as pods move quickly through the channel. My second choice is anything out of the ordinary. Massive baitballs of fish being skewered by California brown pelicans, elegant terns and legions of gulls is always entertaining. Mix that in with a large pod of common dolphins feeding, and now we’re really onto something. However, large marine mammals trump these periodic feeding frenzies disrupting the channel, one of the best places in the world for spotting the big stuff. Gray whales make the annual mega trek, and blue whales are easily the largest creatures on the planet, but humpback whales are definitely the most animated and most fun to watch. From tail flukes to pectoral flipper bashes, these baleen whales are rarely boring, especially if food is abundant. The last time I saw them was earlier in the summer, and most everyone working the Island Packers boat agreed it was one of the best, if not the best, humpback shows in recent memory. That’s a lot of trips, and this wasn’t a scheduled whalewatching trip. The Island Packers boats have strict schedules to keep, but when whales and dolphins are spotted in the channel, they’re always good about stopping for 15 or 20 minutes to take a gander at the bevy of sea creatures frequenting the channel. However, this humpback show was so incredible and noteworthy that everyone on the boat got to gawk at the solitary humpback for at least 30 minutes. Without warning a breach-happy humpback exploded out of the ocean like a Russian submarine torpedoing out of the water in the movie “The Hunt for Red October.” The froth from the humpback’s wake forced the Island Packers boat to rock back and forth. It was that

I lost count of how many times this humpback tossed a tail fluke, dove deep for several minutes and then breached violently, nearly clearing the surface of the water several times. Mixed in between all the flukes and breaches were multiple pectoral flipper bashes killing thousands of baitfish with each smack down before chowing down. The entire time we watched Rocketing out of the water, this humpback wows the crowd on the deck of an Island Packers t h i s a m a z i n g boat. spectacle, the rambunctious humpback never rested. guess when and where the humpback either brave or clueless came within strikIt was all within close proximity of the would breach next.

The Island Packers boat finally had to turn toward the mainland and leave the humpback to continue its frenetic play without an attentive audience. As we motored away, it breached again and again until finally a wave goodbye, one last tail fluke with sheets of shimmering water pouring back in the ocean as the sun set behind Santa Cruz Island.

Lemeres monkey around in Costa Rica
Fred and Donna Lemere shared their Coastal View News with family and a new monkey pal on their visit to Costa Rica. They stayed in Jaco, Costa Rica, a small surfing town on the Pacific, and traveled with their daughter Denise, her husband Jeff Helm and granddaughter Lauren Gonzales. On a riverboat excursion deep into the jungle, they fed white faced monkeys. The tour guide called the monkeys, who responded in droves, swinging through the trees to eat out of boat passengers’ hands. The travelers also ziplined over the jungle.
Traveling threesome gushes at Old Faithful
Three Carpinteria ladies headed north to celebrate milestones in Wyoming and at Yellowstone National Park. Twila Goodrick, Pam Heinz and Judy Sirianni visited Jackson Hole to celebrate Twila’s son’s Dell Goodrick’s 50th birthday. They then ventured into Yellowstone for a reading session with Coastal View News while awaiting the gush of Old Faithful, which came on like clockwork.

BEAR ATTACK continued from page 1 unprovoked is “destroyed.” “it’s always a last resort,” she said, “but we just can’t have an unprovoked bear attack.” Miles first glimpsed the bear as it chased her dog across a small creek on private property off Highway 150 at Stanley Park Road. When the bear stumbled upon the woman, it shifted its attention from the dog and began “batting” at Miles. She instinctively ran but was knocked to the ground when the animal bit into the back of her thigh. “He didn’t take a chunk out. He took a bite and then released,” she said. Lying on her back and facing the standing bear, Miles kicked, screamed and flailed her arms as the animal loomed over her. “I wasn’t going to go down without a fight,” she reported. The bear stood about six-feet tall, and Miles described it as having a distinctive look. “He looked sad and tired,” she said. “There was just something about him that didn’t look good.” About three minutes after she first encountered the bear, it turned away and lumbered off. Miles got to her feet and ran to Thompsons’ house, yelling for help. “I go out the door and there’s Emily hanging on my gate saying, ‘I don’t mean to Submitted disturb you, but I’ve been bit by a bear,’” said Thompson. Miles, an avocado rancher who lives just up the road from the Thompson ranch, is
an active outdoorswoman and has crossed paths with several bears in her life. She noted that before she saw the bear, fresh scat on her path alerted her to its nearby presence. Wildlife experts advise against running from bears. Miles said she was familiar with the advice, but in the moment of the attack, she could not fight the urge to run. In the emergency room of Cottage Hospital, doctors treated the four puncture wounds Miles sustained from the bite, as well as deep scratches to her back. She also reported lower back pain, soreness and a cracked rib. During her conversation with Coastal View News, less than 24 hours after the attack, Miles was in good humor and eager to fully recover in order to fulfill her duties as a boardmember of the California Avocado Festival. Miles claimed responsibility for putting herself in jeopardy and said that she should have taken more precautions when hiking alone. “He probably thought we were competing for food,” she said, describing the likely cause of the bear’s attack. Bear sightings become more common in late summer or early fall when food sources become scarcer, Mackey said. Whether the drought has increased the seasonal stress on bears is unknown, she added. Thompson reported multiple stories of wildlife encroaching on local properties. Miles’ incident with the bear, Thompson said, should serve as a cautionary tale for local hikers and mountain bicyclists. “This is a wild place over here,” she said, “and Franklin trail is a wild area too.”
