briefly Haggen to close by Dec. 8

CATERING FOR ALL OCCASIONS!

Carpinteria’s Haggen grocery store has proven to have a short shelf life. The store that replaced Vons on Linden Avenue in July will close between Nov. 24 and Dec. 8, according to management. No plan has been revealed for what might replace the grocer, which entered the Southwest market as part of an aggressive growth model this year but has since stumbled greatly and announced it will close most of its new stores. Store employees have been trying to find work at other grocery stores in the region. The Carpinteria store has planned to sell its inventory at discounted rates until it eliminates nearly everything on the shelves.

The body of well-respected Carpinterian Jim Drain, 77, was recovered from an automobile off of Highway 150 near Bates Road at 11:45 a.m. on Sept. 29. Drain had been missing since noon on Sept. 28, and his phone was traced to the area by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department. His car was 50 feet down an embankment, and he had suffered a gunshot wound to the head. Foul play is not suspected. The death is under investigation, according to Sheriff’s Department reports.

Drain was a longtime board member and past chairman of the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce. He was an active member of the Carpinteria Lions Club and served on Carpinteria Valley Water District’s board of directors for nearly 12 years. A Facebook message from the chamber of commerce described Drain as, “an outstanding Carpinterian, and a great human being … He was a bright and shining light in Carpinteria; his charm and upbeat antics will be missed.”

Burrowing owl found and released

A burrowing owl paid a brief visit to Carpinteria City Hall last week after a resident of 7th Street called 9-1-1 to report the creature. The owl was picked up by code enforcement, examined and determined to be healthy by local veterinarian Dr. Smith. Later, the Ojai Valley Raptor Center picked it up and released it back into the wild. The city reminds residents that raptors and wild native birds are protected under SuBMiTTED PHOTO the Federal Migratory Bird Act, and it is illegal to keep them for any length Burrowing owls are so named because they live in underground burrows dug of time without a permit.

Peter and Carol Nichols will begin their festival duties with an introduction and the traditional balancing of an avo on the nose of the seal fountain on Friday, Oct. 2 at 5 p.m.

Meet the Avofest Honorary Chairs

Peter and Carol Nichols attended the first Avocado Festival together in 1987, and now, 29 years later, they’re attending the festival together again as honorary chairs. Plenty has changed for the Avofest in the last three decades, but the biggest difference for Peter and Carol is that this year’s spotlight belongs to them.

The well-deserving couple said they feel proud and honored to have been selected for the important role of representing the three-day celebration of all things avo.

Avocado roots runs deep in Peter’s family. His grandfather planted the first avocados in Carpinteria Valley in 1922, and his mother, Rosemary Brown, continued the family’s ranching legacy. Peter got his start in the biz when, at about 8 or 9, his mom would send him shimmying up the tallest trees to pick the fruit beyond the workers’ reach.

Though Peter was born and raised among avocado trees in Carpinteria, he expanded his horizons by traveling around the world before settling down in his hometown. He sailed extensively throughout the Pacific, visiting at least 75 islands on his adventures. Then he came home to California and earned a degree in enology from Fresno State, which led to a decade making wine in Australia.

Carpinteria beckoned him home in 1981, and Peter heeded the call. He returned to help run the fruit packing operation California Tropics with his siblings. Now he owns Santa Barbara Exotics, from which he ships cherimoyas, passion fruit, dragon fruit and white sapotes. He and Carol also grow their own avocados and tropical fruits.

Carol moved to Carpinteria in 1977.

She owned and operated Creative Haircuts when Peter walked in the door for a trim in 1982. He hasn’t had his hair cut by anyone else since.

While Peter dedicates his time to running the ranch and his packing business, Carol spends many of her hours generously giving back to the community.

She visits Alzheimer’s and senior care facilities where she cuts hair and socializes with residents. She has been an active member of the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce for 35 years, and her volunteering efforts have benefited the Carpinteria Boys & Girls Club, California Women for Agriculture, Carpinteria Arts Center, among many other causes. Carol also has volunteered at every Avofest since that first one she and Peter attended.

Fact 1: On average, women without children earn more than women with children. Fact 2: On average, men with children earn more than men without children.

Are these results surprising? In each case there are two groups, and on average, one group earns more than the other group. Is there discrimination against woman with children, or against men without children? I think good folks could come up with solid reasons as to why the averages are different in each case.

Fact 3: On average, women earn less than men. Is that any more surprising than the statements in Fact 1 and Fact 2?

One can produce solid reasons for the “average” difference. I’m not asserting that discrimination doesn’t exist, but simply that you can’t justify discrimination by arguing around averages. One would need a carefully constructed matched pair design if one hopes to justify a discrimination claim.

Consider two groups: Group 1 salaries (100, 50, 50, 50, 50). Average = 60.

Group 2: (55, 55, 55, 55, 55). Average = 55.

Statistically speaking, everyone in Group 2 has a salary that is greater than 80 percent of those in Group 1. However, on average, Group 2 makes less than Group 1. That’s unfair for Group 2. Let’s make things fair by increasing all Group 2 salaries by 5. That fixes everything, doesn’t it?

This is a simple example due to the space limit of this forum. The bottom line is that we are subjected daily to statistical nonsense stating a possibly-true premise involving averages and then an assertion that this is the cause of a possibly-true conclusion involving discrimination. In basic statistics one learns that there may be a positive (or negative) association between A and B, but that does not mean A causes B. Average figures are useful. However, one must be aware of their limitations.

Back in the day, before money and property, man’s best retirement and disability plan was to provide and be good to his children and neighbors. Social Security is a poor substitute for what’s written in the DNA. It’s in your own self-interest to be kind, loyal and honest throughout your lifetime and productive for as long as possible. The riskiest thing anyone can do is to appoint someone to take their place in private affairs or represent them in public affairs.

Direct gutters toward the garden

Before the rainy season arrives, please take a look at your rain gutters individually through new eyes and notice which direction your down spout is facing. Is it toward the garden or toward the street?

Let’s not waste any more water. Turn that spout toward the garden. It will make your plants happy and raise the water table through conservation.

Together we can make a difference.

Local avocado farmers ride out drought

By Peter Dugré

Avocado trees have been without a good soak for some time. Add the unending heat to the mix and the elements battled against the fruit all summer. Locally, Carpinteria’s crop did fairly well, given the groundwater supply. In regions outside of the Carpinteria Valley, fruit was picked early or other measures were taken to combat water shortages.

“For those who had water, it was a good year. For folks suffering from drought, it went from bad to worse,” commented Rick Shade, a California Avocado Commissioner and owner of Shade Farm Management, which handles many ranches in the valley. He said that in places as close as Goleta farmers are in trouble. “The water has been turned off or priced out of reach,” he said.

All of the fruit has been picked and packed in California ahead of the California Avocado Festival this year. The total volume was around 270 million pounds and prices were near $1 per pound, according to Shade. In most years, there are still some avocados waiting to be picked the first weekend of October for the harvest festival. “This year, picking was done early. Usually there’s some fruit left at the time of the avocado festival but this year is the anomaly. We’re done,” Shade said.

The fruit did not size up this year, probably owing to drought conditions, according to Ken Stanley, regional manager of Calavo, the largest avocado packing company in the state. “Even though we had water in Carpinteria the drought still affects us,” he said. Stanley called the harvest this year, “condensed,” owing to the heat and need to get the fruit off the trees.

Another factor in the shortened season is fruit imported from Mexico. Although Mexico produces more fruit than California, Shade said, California can fetch higher prices. “California, with all the competition from other sources, has learned to pick at the peak time in the market for top quality. People are willing to pay for the quality,” he said.

The bloom in Carpinteria Valley this spring that had avocado groves in sprays of yellow flowers, looks like it could add

up to a promising 2016 harvest. “It’s been a good set for next year in Carpinteria, a very good set. It looks like a good crop.

We’ll start picking in the spring,” Stanley said.

Shade said some branches have had such an abundance of avocados growing on them that they have collapsed.

The good set, however, is no sure thing.

Another dry winter could be devastating, and both extreme heat or frost could damage fruit.

“Our biggest thought right now is on what this winter will bring,” Shade said.

The bigger the El Niño the better, he said.

“I’m a farmer, and I’ve lived through many El Niños, and I’ve never seen too much rain.”

Heavily weighted branches should translate into a good crop next spring.

darren Kenney stands with his shark-bitten kayak at his Carpinteria home. The shark’s attack launched the boat out of the water and threw Kenney out.

The tooth prints of a great white shredded the ¼-inch hard plastic kayak just feet from where Kenney was seated readying to fish Horseshoe Reef.

Carpinteria shark attack leaves kayaker unscathed

By Lea Boyd

Darren Kenney, 49, survived a harrowing attack by a great white shark off the coast of Carpinteria on Sept. 24 that left him with just a dislocated thumb. The local man’s ruined kayak now bears a 16inch wide bite mark from an impact that launched Kenney into the air and left him in the water for about 10 minutes before a passing boat picked him up.

The hobbiest fisherman boarded his blue Wilderness Tarpon kayak in Summerland that morning with plans to fish a kelp bed close to shore. This summer’s unusually warm water has killed back the kelp, so Kenney decided to paddle

farther out to Horseshoe reef, a spot he said he has fished “100 times, but never in a kayak.”

Preparing to tie on his lure, Kenney said he felt the “energy” shift and everything grow suddenly quiet before, “Boom, it just launched me.”

The marks on the kayak show a bite across the side of the boat just behind where Kenney was seated. Airborne, Kenney looked back at what hit him and saw the back end of a white shark diving into the water.

Having worked as drywall hanger for decades, Kenney is confident in his visual estimates of measurements. He said the shark’s head was underwater by the time he got a look, but that 13 or 14 feet of its body still remained in view. He described the tail alone as five to six feet tall.

The attack left him in the water separated from his boat by several feet. He swam back and got in but soon discovered that the shark’s teeth had penetrated the hard plastic and the boat began quickly filling with water and sinking.

A life vest borrowed from brother in law Jon Keiser kept him afloat while he started rummaging through his backpack to retrieve his phone, which he’d placed in a ziplock bag. Over the next couple frustrating moments, he worked to unlock his touchscreen phone with wet fingers and an injured thumb. Meanwhile, his thoughts never left the shark. “I could feel he was not very far away—or she,” he said. “I’m thinking, this could be it, he’s going to come back.”

He finally reached his wife on the phone and gave her a quick explanation of what had happened and where he was and asked her to contact the Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol. Trying to return the phone to the bag in his panic, he lost it.

Seeing no one else on the water, he started to slowly swim toward the shore, careful not to disturb the water and at-

tract the shark’s attention. He carried his fishing gaff, which had floated by after he’d been thrown in the water thanks to a tennis ball he used to guard the blade. If the shark returned, he said, “I was going to do something, get an eyeball at least.

I wasn’t going down without a fight.”

Afraid he would have to swim all the way to the beach, Kenney thought, “God, if you’re up there, can you get here right now?”

Then, off in the distance about a quarter to half mile, he noticed a small boat moving up the coast toward Santa Barbara. He lifted his paddle out of the water and waved it around, yelling to get the boaters’ attention. They didn’t see him at first, but eventually the boat swung around and motored toward him. The two people, Kenney learned their first names were Clint and Christie, had been diving nearby. They pulled him and his kayak out of the water and took Kenney to the Santa Barbara Harbor.

Just a few days later, on Sept. 27, digital photos of a 12-foot shark were taken by a man fishing with his family at Horseshoe reef. The last month has brought several reports of white sharks and hammerheads in the area.

Bike bounty hunters

A man heard a woman yelling for a bike thief to stop at 8:30 a.m. on Sept. 15 on 7th Street, and when he saw her bolting up the road in pursuit of a man on a bike, he told the theft victim to hop into his car. They chased the bike thief to 9th Street, and the driver saw an opportunity to use the vehicle to cut the man off. The maneuver proved effective and costly. In the process of pulling in front of the bike, the driver rammed the curb so hard that he blew out a tire. The bike thief, however, got off the bicycle and ran up Palm Avenue. The bike owner got her bike back, and the Good Samaritan got a flat tire.

Jersey girl

A man called sheriff’s deputies on Sept.

22 to report that his ex-girlfriend had stolen two of his USC football jerseys from his collection, one of which was signed and valued at a few hundred dollars. He suspected her because she mysteriously was inside his home that evening and walked by him to leave without saying a word.

He had gone out to the store at about 10 p.m. and returned to find her car at the home. The ex-girlfriend, 39, departed without saying a word and undetected by the man’s parents, who were upstairs. It was clear that she wasn’t let in and had already been told she was no longer allowed at the home. The man discovered his cherished jersey missing at that point, and he told deputies she’d taken a separate one in the past.

When taking the theft report, deputies received a call that the suspect was at the station and wished to speak with them.

She claimed that he had stolen her cell

phone, and she nabbed the jersey as leverage to have the phone returned. Also, she said she had been invited to the home and usually dropped by at night. She had the two jerseys in the back of her car and returned them to deputies, who in turn slapped handcuffs on her and arrested her for burglary.

The man said the cell phone claim was bogus.

Mop-aholic

A deputy found a man mopping a Carpinteria Avenue auto mechanic’s cement driveway at 1:30 a.m. on Sept. 16.

The deputy asked what the man was up to, and he said mopping. He had gotten bored and drunk and wanted to mop the floor, he said. He also bragged about his large inventory of vodka, which he had stolen from a store and stashed at the beach, but he didn’t know which store. The man was arrested for public intoxication.

Carpinteria receives well-wishes from Washington, D.C. for 50th

By Dale Myers

“I rise to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the city of Carpinteria, incorporated on Sept. 28, 1965,” said Congresswoman Lois Capps via video from the Congressional floor in Washington, D.C., addressing an overflowing crowd at the Carpinteria City Council meeting.

“It is known as one of America’s finest small towns and has also been recognized as one of America’s cities with the highest quality of life. I’m proud to honor the city of Carpinteria on their 50th anniversary.”

A representative of California State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson was also on hand at the Sept. 28 Carpinteria City Council meeting to help celebrate the city’s 50th anniversary. The council also presented 50th anniversary commendations to various local individuals and organizations, congratulating the people of Carpinteria on achieving half a century of self-government and recognizing the 50th anniversary committee.

“On behalf of the city I wish to thank the community and all staff who help to make and keep our town charming with this diverse economy and for making Carpinteria a wonderful place to live, work and play,” said Mayor Gregg Carty, who also read a letter from U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer, which read, in part, “Carpinteria’s a magnificent coastal town with beautiful beaches, breathtaking mountain views and a diverse population and economy. The residents of Carpinteria can take great pride in the community…

You have my best wishes on your golden jubilee.”

In other business, the City Council voted unanimously in favor of adopting Resolution No. 5573 urging the state to provide new sustainable funding for state and local transportation infrastructure and join the California State Association of Counties’ “Fix our Roads Coalition.”

A 2014 California statewide local streets and roads needs assessment confirms that the state’s local streets and roads will decline significantly if no additional funding is obtained for pavement maintenance. It additionally notes that there is a significant street maintenance funding shortfall of about $78.3 billion over the next 10 years.

Within Carpinteria, the city’s pavement condition index has continued to decline from a starting point of “very good” at 74 to “good” at 67, and to maintain the current pavement condition index of 67 the city would need to expend approximately $900,000 per year. The potential additional funding provided by the state would allow the city to maintain the current pavement condition index

Cheerleaders share guac booth recipe for fundraising success

By DaviD CourtlanD

When the Avocado Festival was first launched, a group of mothers got together with their daughters to raise money for Carpinteria High School’s cheerleading team. Thirty years later, the guacamole booth remains a popular fixture at the festival.

“People come up and say they’re glad we’re still doing this,” said cheer mom Denise Barber, who is participating in her sixth Avocado Festival and guacamole booth.

The annual booth is not only used to raise funds for the cheerleading program but to provide practical experience for the cheerleaders, Barber said. “The girls learn so much from the experience; we include them in the planning,” Barber said. “They have a lot of responsibility; there’s a lot of accountability.”

Students not only learn to work with customers, they are responsible for making sure their parents show up if they’re supposed to, Barber said.

The preliminary work begins the week before the festival when the avocados are delivered to a donated holding space, which this year is at a local avocado farm where one of the other cheerleader ’s mother’s works.

“This year they will be ordering about 6,000 pounds of avocados,” said Barber, who is directing the festival project.

Besides avocados, some of the other ingredients include chopped onions, lemon juice and garlic salt, Barber said.

“We’ll have someone who knows avocados who can tell us when to start sorting,” Barber said, and then the girls will begin sorting avocados into bins of ripe and non-ripe fruit.

The storage space is temperature-controlled so that if there aren’t enough ripe avocados, the remainder can ripen in time to get through the weekend of the festival.

Depending on the ripeness of the batch of avocados, the girls may need to sort every afternoon after cheerleading practice, Barber said. “We’ve had years where they’ve all been ripe,” Barber said. “It depends on the condition of the avocados when they first come in.”

Parents set up the cheerleader booth Thursday and man the booth all day Friday, since the girls are in school during the day and cheering at the football game that night.

The guacamole preparation begins on the Thursday before the festival, Barber said.

Since the festival opens while the girls are in classes on Friday morning, they prepare batches of the guacamole after school or at cheerleading practice on Thursday evening in the high school cafeteria.

The prepared guacamole is then transported to Albertsons and stored in a cooler until the next day. Small batches

CHS cheerleaders have been serving up the good stuff for 30 years. of guacamole are picked up throughout the day on Friday to make sure it is fresh.

Saturday morning parents will pick up a load of avocados from the holding space and deliver it to the cheerleader booth by 6:15 a.m. The girls arrive at 6:30 a.m. and quickly unload the fruit. An assembly line is set up with groups of girls cutting, peeling and mashing the fruit to prepare more guacamole. Parents oversee the process as groups of girls mix the ingredients into the mashed fruit and begin to fill a giant tub; the process is repeated on Sunday morning.

Barber said the booth is so popular it’s not unusual for the guacamole to sell out before the festival is over, making for some crazily rushed moments.

“When it’s really hectic we sell out; we have to call the girls back to make more,” Barber said. “Last year they ran out of chips twice—we’re dealing with kids and parents, there are definitely things that happen.”

The squad works with the county health inspector assigned to the festival each year, Barber explained. Several parents as well as some of the girls hold ServSafe certificates and follow all the guidelines established for nonprofit food vendors.

Parents attend the food vendor meeting each year and are always looking for ways to improve the process, Barber said.

“We do our best to keep costs down, but we do have to pay festival fees,” Barber said, as well as paying half the market price on the order of avocados. “The

money goes to fund the cheer program for the rest of the year.”

Last year over $23,000 was raised, Barber said. One of the expenses the fundraiser helps pay for is the cheerleading camp at UCSB that the cheerleaders attend each year.

Other expenses are travel costs not covered by the $75 cheerleader transportation fee, providing treat bags to the football team during the season, meals when the girls are on the road, bannerand poster-making supplies.

DNA your gray away a trainer’s journal

ROB BURKE Last weekend, I ventured out on a very risky adventure… It wasn’t risky because of the potential risk to my physical self. It was risky because I was about to push my social and physical limits by backpacking with a group of 10 total strangers on a vertical climb of 3,000 feet from a base elevation of 8,000 feet. Backpacking with one person is tough enough, but in my quest to meet some new friends and push beyond my physical barriers, I joined an outdoors group and signed up for a hike into the eastern Sierra.

The challenge was to take place on two fronts: I tend to move a bit more carefully because of my Parkinson’s affliction. Imagine coming to a river crossing where the bridge is a line of precariously balanced rocks and you get stuck behind me. Or you’re moving along at a brisk pace and then the whole group has to stop and wait because I’m lagging way behind. Add to the fact that these were total strangers to me and the second front would be the need to work as a team, which assumes that we all are fairly equal in our abilities.

The combination of scenarios puts a lot of pressure on someone with Parkinson’s.

Just the thought of causing such a slowdown could stress me into a neuromuscular short circuit, resulting in tremors that destroy all semblances of balance and stability. Just the uncertainty of being able to make it across the river results in the brain shutting down all motor skills. The only way to snap out of this movementimpairing condition is to stop and prompt the brain to rationalize the perceived risk and then begin to self-negotiate motor-

skill reengagement. It’s not easy.

As for my pace, well, I took the approach of telling everyone in the group that I might slow them down, but they seemed to be supportive of the fact that I just wanted to be out there setting an example for all of us with any physical challenges. We can do anything. We should try everything and more important is the fact that we must stay active and push our physical limits in order to conquer this and other unexpected maladies.

Now, for the rest of you out there, the same rule holds true whether you have an illness or not. You must push your physical limits on a daily basis. This is the only way you are going to stay mobile as the body ages. Here’s a slap of reality, I’m losing cells that produce dopamine, the root culprit to Parkinson’s. But you’re losing brain cells too; it’s just less obvious. The truth is that after age 30, we’re all aging at twice the rate than when we were 20, which means we’re losing brain cells, losing muscle cells, and even being subjected to diminishing hormone levels as we sit complacently and inactively and let the body slowly die off. These losses are exponentially greater in your 40s and again greater by the time you’re in your 50s, 60s and 70s.

So those of you in denial, let me say it clearly and succinctly: You must change your behaviors as you age if you expect to maintain your brain function and physical mobility. In other words, you must stress your body and stimulate your cells to regenerate the cells you are losing.

Think of it this way: I have Parkinson’s and am losing dopamine-producing brain cells at a very fast rate unless I intervene with exercise and diet to slow down the process. You don’t have Parkinson’s but are also losing brain cells at an exponential rate as you age. You must also intervene with a high-intensity type of exercise and a proper diet to slow down and possibly reverse the depletion of cells.

So now I ask the question, what are you doing to slow down your loss of brain and muscle power?

Ready for some good news? Genetically, it is possible to slow down the aging process and reverse cellular destruction.

That’s right, you have the power to improve your physical longevity by making behavioral changes that will activate or deactivate portions of your DNA. Read that again because this is the basis for why you must exercise and eat well.

A recent study in the Nutrition Journal posed the question: just how much can we impact the genes we have?

Depending on the things you do, certain genes will activate or deactivate to compensate. This “Gene Expression” means that exercise, for example, will activate genes that are necessary for developing strength, size or endurance. In the backpacking scenario, exercise and diet trigger the genes that support the requirements for balance and stability. For the general population, the “anti-aging” genes are triggered and contribute to greater bone density in women, neuro stimulation, performance enhancement— meaning that you are more agile and your reaction times are faster.

The same gene expression can be

applied to your diet. When scientists compared the diets of normal people, they discovered the difference in gene expression was huge, meaning that a poor diet triggered the DNA that contributed to the aging process like inflammation and high blood pressure and a healthy diet triggered the opposite effect.

So now, when we apply gene expression to keeping our cells alive and being able to backpack well into our senior years, we sit up and take notice.

I have been applying the principles of gene expression for many years, if not decades. Curious to see how it affected my backpacking experience with the group of 10? Read this column next month and I’ll tell you all about it.

Perfect Rams win third straight 56-8 over Chadwick

GAME REPORT BY ASSISTANT COACH DAVE SOTO The Cate School Rams 8-man football team stayed perfect with a 56-8 win over the Chadwick Dolphins on Saturday, Sept. 26. The victory pushes Cate to 3-0.

It was a somewhat sluggish start for the Rams, who went up 7-0 after the first quarter, thanks to a 13-yard scamper from senior Dean Smith, but Cate found its rhythm in the second quarter slashing through the Dolphin defense. Senior

Isaiah Washington scored on back-toback Cate possessions; taking a short pass 55 yards from fellow senior Mike Nettesheim to the house and following that up with an impressive 40-yard run for a score.

Smith found the end zone again thanks to a quick 3-yard pass from Nettesheim. The strong-armed quarterback wasn’t done dishing out touchdowns,

as he later found yet another senior, Keller Mochel, who took one across the middle for a Ram score. Junior Pierce Lundt also scored for the Rams thanks to a short run. Nettesheim finished the Rams attack with a quarterback keeper at the goal line.

The Cate defense was stout all game long. Washington recorded an interception for a touchdown late in the game,

while junior Henry Dawson had a fumble recovery and a handful of tackles. Mochel was a force on the edge all game long.

The Rams will kick off Condor League play against Orcutt Academy on Saturday, Oct. 3. The game will start at 7 p.m. at Pioneer Valley High School in Santa Maria.

Warriors split squad in home tourney Mission Prep wins championship

BY ALONZO OROZCO

High school volleyball teams from up and down the southland converged on Warrior Gym, as Carpinteria High School hosted its 31st Annual Girls Volleyball Area Classic Tournament on Sept. 26.

The Warriors were pitted against a familiar foe in one of the brackets, the Bishop Diego High School Cardinals. Having beaten Bishop Diego 3-1 in the Cardinals’ tiny gym on Sept. 15, Carpinteria knew it would have its hands full last Saturday. “They still had a grudge. They wanted to beat us since the last game,” said Carpinteria coach Dino Garcia of the school’s South Coast rival. And, it was the Cardinals who prevailed this time in the best of three game series by a score of 2-1.

Entering two teams in the tournament, an A and B squad, Carpinteria saw a lot of flying volleyballs throughout the day. “We’re just getting more experience under our belts,” explained Garcia of his Warriors who ended up falling in the Silver Division final to Nordhoff in a tightly-contested match, 25-23.

Although the Warriors were unable to capture the trophy, they got their usual solid play from Miranda Marquez, while Corina Porter also performed well. Senior setter Katie McGee led the offense, and the Warriors also got a boost from Jennifer Alaniz on the B team. “Jenny (Alaniz) as the outside hitter, had a great day all around,” said Garcia.

The Gold Division winner was Mission Prep who outlasted the Duarte Falcons, 25-18 in the finals. Mission Prep was led by tournament MVP junior Jennifer Laird and setter Josie Kelly. The Final results showed Mission Prep on top, followed by Duarte, Bishop Diego, Azusa, Nordhoff, Carpinteria Varsity, Carpinteria Varsity II and Cabrillo, all in that order.

All in all, it was a good experience for the Warrior team. “Nordhoff and Mission Prep were very high level teams, very well-organized,” said Garcia. Carpinteria will take what they learned out on the road when it travels to play Foothill, Thursday, Oct. 1 with the match beginning at 4 p.m.

Middle blocker Gabriela Rigonati had seven kills and three blocks. “Carpinteria started strong and was able to maintain a decent pace throughout the match; however, the Cardinals didn’t let up and their defense was shutting down Carpinteria’s hitters,” said Warrior coach Dino Garcia.

Warrior girls golf off to hot start

The Carpinteria High School girls golf team is off to a sizzling start. The Warriors won their first four matches to start the season. “I expected the girls to be better this year. It depends on the competition. Most of the teams are starting over … the closest match we had was Nordhoff because they had three or four kids returning,” explained Carpinteria coach Steve Benzin of his team’s early success.

Elizabeth Esquivel, Yarely Aviles and Juliet Parsons, along with a capable group of sophomores, have been instrumental in igniting the Warriors on their blistering pace.

“We’re not in La Reina’s category quite yet. We’ve seen their scores, and they’re quite a bit better than ours,” cautioned Benzin. With eight matches remaining, Carpinteria will have plenty of time to make its mark.

“The kids are excited, they’re working hard; we just need to play golf,” explained Benzin on what the team can do to continue to succeed. Benzin gives a lot of credit to former coach Christine Gahan, who coached the girls golf team for 10 years prior to his arrival. “She got this all started with a strong group of seniors,” assured Benzin.

With 18 players on the current roster, the future of Warrior girls golf appears brighter than the afternoon sun these days.

Warriors fall to 0-4 at South Torrance CVN REPORT

The Carpinteria High School football team traveled to play South Torrance on Sept. 25, and although they came up short of victory, the Warriors battled the Spartans throughout, going into the final quarter trailing by only a touchdown at 13-7. An 87-yard pass play for a touchdown with around eleven minutes left in the game was too much for the Warrior to overcome, as they fell by a final score of 21-7. The loss puts the Warriors at 0-4 for the season.

Carpinteria grabbed the lead in the third quarter on Aaron Vargas’ 2-yard TD run with nearly eight minutes to play in the quarter. Other than the final Spartan touchdown, the Warriors played outstanding pass defense yielding just 129 yards through the air. Mike Garibay had two interceptions, and Michael Arroyo and Oscar Garcia had an interception apiece, as the team had four on the evening. “We thought we took another step forward. We did some good things on defense,” said Carpinteria coach Ben Hallock.

However, with a total of 61 yards on offense and four turnovers, Carpinteria was unable to pick up a road win.

“Offensively, we continue to be a little inconsistent. We had a couple of good drives, unfortunately, they both ended with some turnovers,” explained Hallock. At quarterback for just his fourth varsity start, Garibay completed 5-of-14 for 33 yards with three interceptions. Vargas led the way on the ground with nine rushes for 33 yards and a touchdown, and also caught three receptions for 16 yards to lead all Warrior receivers.

Carpinteria once again is back on the road to take on Channel League opponent, Dos Pueblos on Friday, Oct. 2, kickoff at 7 p.m.

50th anniversary woes

I guess 1965 was a great year for starting grand enterprises. Like Carpinteria’s cityhood and the founding of three California state universities. And our September wedding. But I’m willing to bet that the city’s anniversary party is a whole lot more celebratory than ours.

Roger and I didn’t want anything grand to commemorate our 50 years of staying power. We wanted something quiet, beautiful, relaxing—a couple of nights at the lovely old Ahwanhee Hotel in Yosemite.

I booked a room with a balcony a whole year ahead.

There are times when fate taps your shoulder to let you know that things are about to go sour, and maybe you’d better rethink. Our bags were packed and ready the night before, when Roger got sick.

Chills, fever, vomiting. Sadly disappointed, I set about canceling what I could—the Amtrak train and bus that would take us to Merced and Yosemite, the B&B in Merced where we would spend the night.

I left a pitiful phone message for our old friends, Gil and Joan, who were taking the train from San Francisco to join us. The Ahwanhee’s reservation system wouldn’t let me through, but I knew we’d forfeit our sizable deposit.

Roger took Tylenol and went to bed.

During the night I rose to fetch him another dose. In the time it took to grab a pill from the bathroom, the dog stationed himself in the middle of the dark hallway.

I went sprawling, crashing into a basket of seashells we use as door stopper. OK, that’s number two, I thought, examining the bleeding gash on my arm.

The next morning Roger announced he was well enough to go. What? I’d cancelled everything, and the Amtrak bus was scheduled to leave Carpinteria in two hours. In a panic, I rebooked the bus and train, the B&B, called our friends. We were off. Yay! Things were fine in Merced, Serenity Gardens B&B was wonderful and welcoming. We had a great dinner with our friends Gil and Joan. But Roger didn’t sleep well.

The next day the Amtrak bus took us the two hours up to Yosemite. The scenery was scary. The foothills, the entire Sierra, shimmered with heat. The woods had a smoldering look, trees and brush tinder dry. Live oak leaves gave off a ticking, crackling sound.

The Yosemite Valley seemed to pant in hundred-degree heat. No water in the falls, dying pine trees, the Merced River a narrow tape of water running between boulders. The balcony of our fourth-floor room looked straight west at the valley’s entrance. The balcony could have hosted a square dance it was so big, but it baked all afternoon. We could use it only in the morning and evening. The first night a fire’s glow lit the northern sky. The valley became a bowl of smoke.

Roger’s fever returned. He stayed in the air-conditioned room while Gil, Joan and I

took shuttles around the valley, visited the museum, tried a trail walk. I sneezed and blew my nose constantly. For our anniversary dinner in the big, wonderful dining room, we drank champagne while Roger managed a bowl of soup.

Everything felt wrong. But the grand old Ahwanhee carried on. Guests arrived at the porte-cochere, strolled the red runner along the covered portico to the front door, grabbed lunch in the bar, lounged in chairs for piano music in the great hall, shopped in the gift store, swam in the pool, took tea and cookies in the Winter Room, feasted on salmon and steak in the elegant dining room. I began to feel like I was on the Titanic.

Everything inside was perfectly routine and normal while chaos was brewing outside.

Bulletins in the valley gave the status of seven fires burning in the Sierra Nevada (which means snow-covered). Not a trace of snow was visible, only stressed trees and empty lakes. To the south they were trying to save the giant Sequoias.

The entire forest felt like a powder keg about to go.

In the smoke-filled evenings we watched fire retardant planes crisscross the sky over the canyon walls until darkness fell. After three days we left, heading by train to our friends’ house in San Francisco. Roger had pneumonia.

We visited an emergency room in the city to get an infusion of antibiotics. It was hot even by the bay.

On the train ride home I began to wonder why people weren’t doing everything they could to cool things down.

How could we go on pretending things were normal, an unfortunate blip in the weather, when all around us the evidence screamed a big shift. How could we sit in lounge chairs listening to music in the great hall while the world outside was going up in smoke? Why weren’t we all riding bikes and public transport, or driving electric cars, and investing in solar panels and light-colored roofing, and treating water like the limited and precious resource that it is?

I couldn’t decide what the third bad thing was—pneumonia, fires and smoke, the scarily troubled Sierra?

There were warnings, and we should have stayed home. Roger got better. And that 50th anniversary? Memorable. And very sobering.

One good thing: The ecstatic reception you get from your dogs after you’ve been gone for a while.

Carpinteria Library recommends “Mermaids in Paradise” by Lydia Millet

The story is set on a tropical island and is narrated by Deb, who’s on her honeymoon with her new gregarious husband, Chip. His outgoing manner leads the couple to befriend marine biologist, Nancy, who soon makes a startling discovery: actual mermaids near the coral reef.

The revelation of the mermaid colony prompts an ugly three-way battle between the forces of exploitation, preservation and religious hysteria that—despite the element of fantasy at its core—is plausible enough and funny too.

Nancy recruits them for a clandestine diving expedition to confirm her astounding discovery. Despite her attempt to enforce secrecy, word gets out and a mermaid-frenzy, including the mobilization of “religious hysterics,” ensues. In the midst of the chaos, Nancy mysteriously drowns in her bathtub.

Was she murdered by the resort’s corporate management in a vicious move to capitalize on the ultimate tourist magnet? It’s a tall tale and environmental satire that ends with a shocking twist.

––Tara O’Reilly, Supervising Librarian, Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.

Friends of the Library recommends “Apron Anxiety” by Alyssa Shelaskey

Disclaimer: I bought this memoir based on two glowing reviews. Perhaps, if I were in my 20s and adrift, I would have enjoyed this book. As it was, through sheer stubbornness, I read Ms. Shelasky’s memoir of trying to find her own life’s path in New York and Washington D.C., the trials of dating and living with a chef and her learning to cook.

On the plus side, her descriptions of life interested me because they were so outside my own experience. The sprinkling of recipes was a nice gesture on the author’s part.

On the con side, I felt very sorry for the author, who appears to have had no one in her family or at work to yell “Grow up!” at her. She seems to have lacked common sense and two tablespoons of reality. Ms. Shelasky comes across as being stuck in the early teen years, untouched by the responsibilities that typically hit you at 14 and just keep coming.

If you don’t grind your teeth at this sort of selfindulgence, then this could well be a fun read. She did meet people and see places, but for me, not so much.

––Susan Williams, volunteer extraordinaire, Friends of the Library Used Books Store, 5103 Carpinteria Ave.

This simple writing habit changed my life I’m often asked, “How did you become a writer? Did you always dream about being a writer as a kid? How did you actually make it happen?”

If you’ve ever wanted to become a writer, today I want to share my personal experience of becoming a writer.

I especially want to explore the writing habits I had to develop to become a professional writer. The most important habit required of a writer might surprise you.

I first decided I wanted to become a writer in high school. I was reading the novel “A Tale of Two Cities” and thought, “Wouldn’t it be great to do this all the time? To just hang out with your imaginary friends and visit exotic places in your mind all day? It would be like getting to read books for a career—except you’d be making them!”

If only it were that easy.

How you actually become a writer

I wanted to be a writer. I even studied writing in college. But I wasn’t doing anything that would make me a writer.

I was learning about writing. I was reading about writers. But I wasn’t writing.

After interacting with thousands of aspiring writers over the last five years, here’s what I’ve learned: Wanting to become a writer isn’t enough. You have to develop the habits of a writer to make it your career.

The habits of successful writers

As important as writing is, it was the habit of publishing that changed my life.

As I mentioned, I wanted to be a writ-

er, but I wasn’t writing. What changed was that I started publishing one article on my blog every day.

Publishing became my motivation to write. I found that I loved it. I loved sharing my work with the world. I loved the rush of being known.

To keep up with my publishing schedule, I of course had to write more.

Soon, I was making steps toward writing more professionally.

I began freelancing for a local magazine, writing concert reviews and news features. I began becoming known as “the writer,” by my friends and family.

Not long afterward, I got my first fulltime, professional writing job.

It wasn’t until I got into the habit of publishing that I started to take writing seriously and making steps toward becoming a writer.

What can you publish?

Writers write for others. If you want to become a writer, you need to get into the habit of publishing your writing.

When you breathe in you must breathe out. If you write you must publish. These two go together.

If you don’t write, you will suffocate.

If you don’t publish, you will lose your drive.

What can you publish today?

Publishing doesn’t have to look like writing a book proposal, getting an agent, signing with a publishing company and selling your book in bookstores.

Publishing can look like:

• Reading your story to a friend or family member • Emailing a poem to a loved one • Posting an article on your blog • Publishing your story as a Facebook note It doesn’t have to be “official” or groundbreaking. You don’t need permission from a publisher or a literary magazine. Publishing can simply be sharing your writing with others.

Do you have someone you could share your writing with today?

PRACTICE

Today, publish a writing piece that’s important to you. You may choose to publish it on your blog, share it with a friend or even print it out and read it to someone you care about. If you have to write something first, even better. However, don’t let this day go by without publishing something important to you.

Once you publish, you can even share how you published on The Write Practice website at thewritepractice.com/writing-habits.

And don’t forget: have fun!

Joe Bunting is a full-time author and blogger who lives and writes in Carpinteria with his wife and son. You can find more practical inspiration for your writing at thewritepractice.

Carpinteria Library Book Club “The Cat’s Table” by Michael Ondaatje

“The cat’s table” in Michael Ondaatje’s 2011 novel by that title refers to the dining location farthest from the captain’s table on the ship and, therefore, home to the least important travelers.

In the 269-page romp, readers hop aboard a boat journeying between Sri Lanka and England in the early 1950s where the narrator, an 11-year-old boy, finds himself swept into limitless adventures. The magic of childhood and the gravity of growing up are all woven into the tale that will be discussed by the Carpinteria Library Book Club at its next meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 21 at 7:30 p.m. at the library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.

Lake Powell bombarded with Bairds and company

The Kevin, Donna, Johnathan and Ryan Baird family enjoyed time away with close friends and relatives at Lake Powell. The tight-knit crew spent their time maximizing the lake and wilderness offerings. They skied, kayaked and fished while staying on a houseboat. On shore, they watched herds of desert big horns, cliff jumped and hiked the slot canyons.

Adams ushers CVN down the West Coast

On a meandering bike ride south from Washington State, Leroy Adams slipped a CVN into his saddlebags.

He popped off for one photo of many near Deception Pass Bridge. The scenic southerly cruise was expected to last a month and end in Carpinteria, but Adams was hampered by an injury that stopped the trip short at the Oregon border. He hopes to complete it soon.
