Local election delivers two school board members Measure P falls hard BY PETER DUGRÉ
The most talked about Santa The oil Barbara County Ballot Initiative, industry Measure P, fell flat on election night, despite a spirited local spent over campaign to ban hydraulic fracturing, among other oil $7 million on extraction techniques, on Santa the No on P Barbara County lands. Voters campaign, rejected the ban that the Carpinteria City Council had endorsed which sent by a margin of 63 to 37 percent. The oil industry spent over the message $7 million on the No on P camthat the paign, which sent the message industry is that the industry is an already regulated and necessary part an already of the county economy. Voters regulated and agreed. The Yes on P campaign, orchestrated by a group called necessary The Santa Barbara County Wapart of the ter Guardians, argued that county the dangers of oil extraction techniques like fracking, matrix economy. acidization and cyclic-steam injection put precious aquifers in great peril. The Carpinteria Unified School District Board of Education saw Andy Sheaffer reelected, and the board that oversees local public schools will add Michelle Robertson, the former director at the Carpinteria Children’s Project at Main, in place of outgoing board member Grace Donnelly. John Stineman was the odd man out of three-candidate race. The school board will interview two candidates to replace Sally Hinton as a representative for the Summerland trustee area on Nov. 6. Sheaffer and Robertson will represent the Carpinteria trustee area. Carpinteria City Council had three seats that would have been up for election this year, but only the incumbents entered the race, resulting in a non-election for renewing the four-year terms of Brad Stein, Gregg Carty and Al Clark. Measure S, the Santa Barbara City College bond measure, which would have raised local property taxes, fell by a margin of 51 percent to 49 percent. It needed approval by 55 percent of voters for the $288 million bond request for upgrades at SBCC. Das Williams will continue to represent the 37th District in the State Assembly, and Lois Capps will continue her run as the U.S. Congresswoman from the 24th District.

Community unites behind Measure U
Carpinteria schools can look forward to $90 million in improvements over the next several years thanks to the 65 percent of voters who headed to the polls on Nov. 4 in support of Measure U. Handily surpassing the 55 percent approval threshold, the bond measure will raise local property taxes in order to upgrade and modernize Carpinteria Unified School District’s seven campuses. “It’s clear to me that the Carpinteria citizenry understands the importance of excellent schools,” said CUSD Superintendent Paul Cordeiro on the morning after the election. “We asked Carpinteria to invest in its youth and so it did, overwhelmingly.” Funds from bond sales will be used to replace 63 aged portable classrooms with permanent ones, construct a new science wing at Carpinteria High School and improve infrastructure to support 21st century technology, among many other upgrades to campuses. A school board-approved Master Facilities Plan, developed over several months with input from school site representatives and community members, will dictate the projects undertaken with bond monies. By law, a citizens oversight committee must be formed to ensure that the monies are spent accordingly. Beth Cox, who served on the campaign committee, said that the news of the bond measure’s passage
“We asked Carpinteria to invest in its youth and so it did, overwhelmingly.”
–– CUSD Superintendent Paul Cordeiro
came with “exhilaration and relief.” The committee, which was made up of district administrators, board members and community members, spent the last 10 weeks placing thousands of phone calls to voters from its headquarters in the former Austin’s Hardware. Passage of the bond will lead to property tax increases at a rate of $47 per $100,000 of assessed property value. Cox said she understood that the hike was difficult for some voters to stomach, but that in the end most people made a decision that will improve education for many future generations of Carpinterians. She hopes the monies will help to keep students enrolled in CUSD, where they can enjoy modern, state of the art learning facilities. ––Lea Boyd

As such, we feel he is the right person to lead our transit system,” said Dave Davis, Chair of the Board of Directors.

Stabbing threats lead to overpass arrest
A local man was arrested around 8 a.m. on Nov. 4 on the Santa Ynez Avenue overpass after a domestic dispute in which he allegedly threatened to stab his husband at a home on Cramer Circle. The suspect was fleeing the residence on a bike, when deputies located him on the bridge and ordered him the ground at gunpoint. The victim had placed a 911 call to report that his husband was attacking him with a knife. In interviews that followed, deputies learned that the suspect was on parole and was arrested in August for domestic battery on the same victim. The victim did not sustain any injuries, and an Emergency Protective Order was approved for him that day by a judge.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California
What meant most to you on the 2014 ballot?
While the national election stole the show on Nov. 4 with the GOP sweeping into power in the U.S. Senate, Coastal View News did what it does best by touring Carpinteria to get a pulse of what was important to the local constituency. These five locals spent the evening contemplating their roles in the democratic process and shared what was most important to them on this year’s ballot. JG: Reelecting Lois Capps. I’ve met with her and spoken to her. She’s a down-to-earth and honest woman. We need more people like her in Congress.
Jannet Gregory and Bob Brooks
BB: I tuned into the city college bond measure (Measure S). I sat on the fence because money for education is most important. It seems to me that if there is to be an additional tax to fund SBCC, there should be a caveat that it supports the local population, not foreign students.
RESULTS U.S. House of Representatives District 24
Lois Capps (Dem) 51.6 % Chris Mitchum (Rep) 48.4
State of California Governor:
Jerry Brown (Dem.) 59 % Neel Kashkari (Rep) 41 Vice governor Gavin Newsome (Dem) 56 % Ron Nehring (Rep) 44.1 State Assembly 37th District Das Williams (Dem.) 58 % Ron DeBlauw (Rep.) 42
Haley THOmas-lOuda: Yes on Measure P was most important to me. I wanted to support our future by protecting water, wildlife and our communities.
CHris riley: I was super into yes on P. I teach earth science, and I’m a nature boy. It’s time to push for renewable, clean energy and to move forward as a society.
danielle serapHine: The State of California is bankrupt already, so anything that will cost us more money, I’m opposed to.
WINNERS IN BOLD
Looking for fall in all the wrong places My husband says the only way you could tell the season has shifted this year is by looking at the sycamores. Those trees are spent, exhausted from the effort of holding up their plate-sized leaves, shriveled and dry now, falling to the ground in crackling heaps. It’s been hard to welcome a new season when every sunny day sings of summer, weather so mild birds are reluctant to fly south. The only real sign is shorter daylight hours. I’m sure those cruise ship tourists who wash ashore in Santa Barbara every week or so have been grateful to set foot on our sun-kissed beaches, with palm trees tossed by breezes, tanned, tank top-wearing locals and the whole coast caught in kind of a cozy time-warp slumber. Those cruisers come from all over, after all, and some of those places are actually cold. Everyone likes a change of seasons, and even here, terra of subtle variations, there are signs and symptoms. Liquidambars turning red, wild asters blooming, ripening toyon berries, a light leaf fall, cooler days. On walks, hot treks over Summerland’s hills, I keep looking, testing the air, checking for flashes of color—a frustrating enterprise. It’s been too hot for fall, and even the neighbor’s liquidambar is a dull brown. The only tangible signs of autumn’s arrival are in stores—orange everywhere, corn stalks and corn, pumpkins and pumpkin products so ubiquitous you’d think they were the state’s main crop. Pumpkin tea anyone? Pumpkin crackers, dog biscuits, cheesecake, pumpkin seed brittle? I love all this stuff, mostly because they mark the arrival of a new season. What I’ve missed is the season, a little rain and the reassurance that weatherwise some things can be depended on to persist. Okay, so maybe the first rains came in October this year, bringing at least the smell of fall, with winter rattling along the following month. With all the Christmas stuff already out, I don’t want to have to depend on products again, all things red and green and sparkly white, to remind me the season’s done another shift.

Big yellow yoga
Evolation Yoga is the new tenant of Summerland’s iconic Big Yellow House. The mansion, built by the town’s founder more than a century ago, had sat vacant since receiving a complete restoration and upgrade more than a year ago. Evolation Yoga will occupy the second floor, with the ground floor yet to be leased. The yoga studio, one of many operated by Evolation in the U.S. and abroad, will offer a variety of classes, including hot, warm, flow, yin and meditation. Mark Drost, co-founder of the studios, says the name was chosen by meditating on the words evolution, elevation, elation and meditation. The Summerland venue will offer 30 classes a week, according to Drost. He reports that the new studio will have 14 local yoga teachers, “along with 16 or so that will be visiting from all over the world during the teacher trainings we offer locally.” I asked Evolation spokesperson Leticia Leyva whether Summerland’s spiritualist origins had any bearing on the choice of their new home. Location was the primary draw, she responded, the proximity of the highway and ocean views. Once they learned of the spiritualist connection, she said, “It just seemed to fit perfectly in line with the vision of Evolation yoga.” Evolation’s goal, said Drost, is to “remind us of our own true nature through practice.” The studio will open for business—and practice—later in the month. To celebrate their new home, Evolation threw a “yogis and
ghosts party” on Nov. 1. Wonder if anyone spotted Hector, the ghost who is rumored to haunt the Big Yellow’s lower level.
Water, water everywhere
Lots of it, running down Calle Culebra on Sunday, Oct. 26, swirling gutters, picking up soil, a muddy flow across the road at the Evans Street curve. Walking there, I was astonished to slip in mud. Farther down on Banner, the storm drain that funnels a seasonal creek echoed with the musical sound of running water. Someone draining his pool? No, too much for that. I called the Montecito Water District the next day to ask about leaks. Yep. I learned that an eight-inch transmission line from the Ortega Reservoir had broken on the 2200-hundred block of Ortega Ranch Road. The line was repaired by Monday, but in the meantime approximately 11,000 gallons of precious water rinsed Summerland’s streets before washing out to sea. A spokesperson for the district’s engineering department said they use a formula based on the size of the break to estimate water loss, adding that it doesn’t always account for all the water leaked. Too bad nobody thought to organize a bucket brigade. We could have used that water to green up our struggling downtown planting.

Aug. 28, at the tail end of the dog days of summer. The ancients, who gave the dog day name to those hot and sultry days, considered them an evil time, making the sea boil and the wine turn sour. John’s passing, so sudden and shocking, felt like that to those of us who knew him, too. There was a gathering at Café Luna on John’s birthday, Oct. 17, to remember him and celebrate his life and honor him as the good man, good citizen and good heart that he was. John was a downtown Summerland fixture. He lived next door to the café, and it was one of his favorite hangouts, where he shared morning coffee and conversation with friends—and anyone who happened by because he was a friend to everyone. A Summerland resident since 1974, he was devoted to the town and especially its people. He served on the board of the Summerland Citizens Association and committees for architectural review and Summerland Beautiful. If something needed to be done, a vacancy filled, he was there, solid, dependable, rock-steady. Friends, family and real estate colleagues crowded Café Luna for John’s memorial that mild October evening. A band played; people ate and drank and talked, cried and laughed. It was exactly the kind of gathering he would have enjoyed the most. I mentioned to his wife Beda that it felt like he was there, hovering over us, watching. “He is,” she said. It’s difficult to come to terms with the sudden departure of someone like John Sirois, who did so much and was a friend to so many. We only know we are marked by his passage, and the town he loved, changed, along with the hearts of those who knew him. One good thing: A little green frog hiding in the patio’s potted plants, the only moist vegetation around. Fran Davis is an award-winning writer and freelance editor whose work appears in magazines, print and online journals, anthologies and travel books. She has lived in Summerland most of her life.

Rock’s Hall of Fame
In 1952, a Cleveland DJ named Alan Freed came up with three words that described the up-tempo, black rhythm and blues records he played. His phrase changed everything. Freed called it Rock and Roll. Forty years later that description helped inspire the City of Cleveland to build the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame. The six-story museum houses the country’s largest collection of rock artifacts and pop music memorabilia. This columnist recently visited the museum and interviewed its associate curator, Meredith Rutledge-Borger. Here’s a snapshot of the tour. Opened in 1995, the Rock Hall is a four-block walk from Cleveland’s upscale, downtown hotels. Perched on Lake Erie’s south shore, the expansive museum has a dynamic, striking feeling. Light pours through its honeycombed, geodesic design. “A lot of people are startled first seeing it. They say the museum looks like The Louvre in Paris. That makes sense because our architect I.M. Pei also designed the Pyramid addition to the Louvre,” Rutledge-Borger said. Rock is a river of music fed by many streams. On the museum’s first floor, guests are offered a 12-minute documentary describing how popular music evolved. The film traces rock’s footprint from gospel through early Elvis and provides visitors a framework to follow rock’s timelines. You hear music everywhere you turn. From early blues to the British Invasion to EDM, each decade moves to its unique soundtrack. I counted four separate theaters presenting artist documentaries and HD Dolby performances. The museum also has an on-site Sirius Satellite Radio station. “The Rock Hall is all about the music, that’s why we’re here. Not just telling the stories but having people experience the music themselves. Whenever we can, we try to use the artists own words to describe what people are hearing and experiencing,” Rutledge-Borger offered. The exhibits guide you through each of rock’s eras, describing early influences, highlighting musical legends, spotlighting inductees and presenting contemporary artists’ artifacts. Little Richard’s outrageous pink sequined
jumpsuit is displayed along with Katy Perry’s swirling pinwheel tour outfit. It’s the red and silver dress Perry wore on stage at her 2011 Santa Barbara County Bowl show. Each of the museum’s floors has interactive listening exhibits. One features influential guitarist Les Paul’s intricate picking skills while another presents radio’s one hit wonders. The impressive Elvis exhibition presents exclusive film footage from the legendary singer’s estate. I joined a museum docent’s walk ‘n’ talk tour discussing the 60’s psychedelic sound. We saw the original lyrics to Jimi Hendrix’s “Purple Haze” and viewed the wild purple jumpsuit he wore at his 1970 Isle of Wight show. Four of Jerry Garcia’s iconic guitars are prominently displayed. The electric six string he called “Rosebud” allowed Garcia to call up 500 different digital sounds. There are many unexpected surprises. Rage Against The Machine’s faded 1985 Chevy Astro touring van is just across the room from Alex Van Halen’s massive, double bass drum set. Also on display is Bob Dylan’s paystub from the 1965 Newport Folk Festival. Dylan re-imagined folk music that day by bringing members of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band on stage to play electric renditions of “Maggie’s Farm” and “Like A Rollin Stone.” Dylan was paid $100 for his set but was booed by folk purists. John Lennon’s famed acoustic Gibon guitar is featured in the large Beatles exhibit. It’s the one he strummed as he and wife Yoko Ono sang “Give Peace A Chance” during their honeymoon “Bed-In.” After Lennon’s murder, Yoko installed a white wall telephone next to their Rock Hall exhibit. She would occasionally call and talk with whoever picked up the phone. After eating lunch in the atrium café, I discovered the museum’s special exhibition, Common Ground: The Festival Music Experience. “We were excited to do an exhibit on festivals because they have become the engine of the current music industry. They are important not only for the new artists but also revitalizing the careers of artists from the past and putting those two groups together,” curator Rutledge-Borger said. The multi-media festival exhibit is located on two museum floors. It simulates an outdoor musical extravaganza with light shows, scaffolding and historical film footage set among artifacts from Farm Aid to the Electric Daisy Carnival. I had never seen the original hand stenciled shirt that staff wore at Woodstock in 1969. The iconic blue and white silkscreen design featured a dove sitting on the neck of a guitar. Visiting Cleveland’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame was a dream road trip. At the end of my rock odyssey, I landed in the museum’s enormous gift shop. I couldn’t resist bringing a few souvenirs home. You’ll probably see me wearing my Rock Hall hat around town. See markbrickley.com for Brickley’s music articles and photography. Among the thousands of rock artifacts at the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame is Katy Perry’s iconic 2011 tour outfit.

A California Highway Patrol officer parking in Casitas Plaza on Oct. 12 at 12:02 p.m. had his vehicle approached by a woman. She handed over a vial of meth. The officer took it and briefly questioned the woman, who said she found it outside a motel on Via Real. CHP handed the drug over to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department for destruction.
Coeur d’Alene and back
A deputy who noticed a car trailing him on Carpinteria Avenue eventually maneuvered behind the car and pulled it over on Oct. 28. The deputy first noticed the vehicle on his tail at the intersection of Santa Ynez and Carpinteria avenues. Then when the deputy proceeded westbound on Carpinteria Avenue to the dead end at the Highway 101 offramp, the vehicle remained on his tail. The officer backtracked to Santa Ynez Avenue and turned to drive over the freeway, and the car remained on his tail. Thinking he was intentionally being followed, the officer turned onto Cramer Circle but lost his tail. When the officer exited onto Via Real, he regained a visual of the vehicle, which was stopped at the intersection of Santa Monica Road and Via Real. The officer pulled up behind the vehicle, but it remained stopped for 55 seconds. After initiating a traffic stop to figure out why the vehicle had remained motionless in the roadway, the officer contacted the driver, a 61-year-old man, whose face was lax and eyes glassy. The man’s countenance was one clue he was on drugs, and the pill bottle in the cup holder also raised suspicions. The man said he’d taken his daily doses, which include prescriptions for clonazepam and hydrocodone—a muscle relaxer and painkiller—among a regimen of 13 medications. He also said he knew he was in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and hadn’t had a drop of booze for 20 years. The man was left alone for a moment in his car and reportedly slumped his chin into his chest. When the deputy reappeared at his window, he was reportedly startled at the lawman’s voice. Deputies arrested the man for driving under the influence of drugs.
Check is in the mail
A local nursery owner received a mysterious phone call from a woman in Minnesota who sought to verify a check in his company’s name made out to her. She explained that the check was the result of her craigslist job search. She had responded to an advertisement for a job at the nursery, and her job search resulted in her receiving a $2,500 check in the mail. The nursery owner reported the fraudulent check to deputies. Since the woman never cashed the check, no money was lost as result of the fraud.
Dine and dash
Apparently unable to cover a $155 tab, a trio of diners at a Linden Avenue restaurant decided to run out on the bill on Oct. 22 at 4 p.m. Two credit cards were denied before the diners asked if they could go to a cash machine. Restaurant staff said they could go but would have to leave behind a drivers license as collateral. Allegedly, they decided to bolt and were last seen
driving away in a white Mercedes. Staff recorded the license plate number. The patrons, reportedly a 50ish woman and her son and his girlfriend, both in their early 20s, left behind a black Coach purse. Within the purse, deputies discovered a memory card, which contained photos. Photos of cars and people reportedly had helpful clues, but deputies reported that the case was being turned over to detectives for further investigation.
Cleaning house
A man who had hired a friend of a friend to clean his residence on Oct. 16 found that after he had gone to sleep, she removed a lot more than dust and grime. He said he turned in at about 11 p.m., but
the woman, 23, was still going strong. He was awakened by her departing at 1 a.m., and when she returned to continue cleaning at 2 a.m. He surmised she had gone to McDonalds to refuel before continuing to clean. She left for good at 6 a.m., which caused the man to stir in his bed, but he didn’t get up. When another man came to the residence later that morning, he first noticed that a laptop had gone missing. They then did a more thorough inventory check and discovered an iPad, iPod, a wedding ring, $350 cash and a 9 mm glock pistol were missing. Deputies asked what she was expecting to get paid, but the man said they hadn’t worked out a pay rate. She allegedly stole over $2,000 worth of goods. The man said he had wanted to help out the woman, who he said used to be a heroin user. Deputies connected a description of the woman and her tattoos as a repeat offender who had a felony warrant out for her arrest. The victim had waited three days to notify police, he said, because he hoped she’d come around and return the stolen items. In a phone conversation, she vehemently denied stealing from the man but said she’d go talk to him and clear things up. She never arrived to explain
the coincidence of her cleaning spree and the burglary. Deputies had yet to locate the woman at the time of the report.

Live and die by the information age If there is a field of study more fickle than medicine, I don’t want to hear about it. Or maybe I do. I’m not sure. It is said that we live in the information age. Information can increase knowledge. It is also said that knowledge is power. Therefore, using the transitive property of equality, we can conclude that information is power. But as Spiderman’s Uncle Ben said, “With great power, comes great responsibility.” I think he was trying to say that, while power can be used for good, it can just as easily be used for evil. The bearer of power must also have the ability to use the power effectively.

Warrior seniors, from left, Natalie Saito, Lesly Zapata and Kelsie Bryant all turned in strong performances at the Tri-Valley League tennis tournament.
Bryant wins fourth league title
Carpinteria High School senior Kelsie Bryant made it a perfect 4-for-4 in individual league championships over her four years as a Warrior tennis player. Even though the team jumped up to Tri-Valley League from Frontier League this season, the heightened level of competition did not faze Bryant, who lost a single game at the TVL tourney. The championship round went to Bryant by forfeit, but she had defeated Natalie Greco of La Reina, her would-be competitor, multiple times in the regular season. In doubles, Cate School’s Julia Gan/Mckenna Madden finished second at the TVL finals. They lost the championship match, 6-3, 6-7 (9), 6-1, to Sophia Aulicino/ Jacey Katch of La Reina. CHS’s Lesly Zapata/Natalie Saito defeated Inga Parkel/Olivia Adelman of Nordhoff, 6-4, 1-6, 6-2, in the third-place match. The top Warrior doubles team fell to a 4-0 hole to start the first set but bounced back for the win. Bryant and Gan/Madden advanced to the CIF Sectionals. Zapata/Saito were alternates.
Cate beats CHS by one goal twice Cate School and Carpinteria High School water polo teams are pretty evenly matched, but Cate came out ahead by a hair each time the two met in Tri-Valley League showdowns. The Rams won the Oct. 27 meeting at Cate 11-10, and then traveled to Carpinteria Community Pool to capture the rematch 14-13 on Oct. 29. In the second matchup (CVN reported on the first last week), the Warriors and Rams traded goals all afternoon until the Warriors missed their final chance to tie it up. With 30 seconds to play, the Warriors called time out for a set play but the final shot posted out and fell to the Rams, who held the ball until the clock ran out. For Cate, Zack Allen led the way with five goals. Alex Brown had three goals,
and Will Hogue and Julian Maes scored two apiece. Malek Mehai scored four goals for the Warriors, and Wyatt Stevenson, Chris Fedderson and Forrest Van Stein finished with two goals apiece. Cate leapt out to a 5-3 lead early, riding the monster outside shooting of Allen and Brown, but the Warriors put together their own three-goal run to capture a 6-5 lead before halftime. The Warriors built a 10-7 in the third quarter, but Cate came back. Hogue’s shot with 3:03 left in the game put the Rams in the lead at 11-10. The teams were locked at 13-13 with 2:45 remaining, until Hogue struck again for the final 14-13 margin.
Little Big Game is big dud for Warriors BY ALONZO OROZCO
With undefeated South Coast rival Bishop Diego High School coming to town last week, the Warriors knew their road to a potential playoff spot would be rocky. Although the game was played on a Thursday night, Oct. 30, instead of the usual Friday, the recent fortunes of the Carpinteria High School football squad didn’t change much. The Cardinals (9-0, 2-0 Tri-Valley League) scored on offense, defense and special teams en route to a 33-7 win at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium. Using a trio of running backs, Abel Gonzalez, John Harris and Daniel Molina, the Cardinals pounded the ball on the ground to the Warrior 18 on their opening drive. For the second week in a row, the Warrior defense made a game of it early, as BD quarterback Spencer Stovesand’s throw over the middle was picked off by Timmy Jimenez to end the threat. On the Warriors’ next series, a 28-yard run by quarterback Jimmy Graves put the ball on the Cardinal 46. Following the first big gain, the Warriors stalled out. Graves carried the ball five times for 30
yards and completed 4-of-15 passes for 33 yards with an interception over the contest. However, the drive would end there with a Carpinteria punt. This time, Stovesand’s pass connected with Harris for a 38-yard gain down to the Warrior 29. He later found a wideopen Jacob Brosnan for a 30-yard touchdown pass at the end of the first quarter, making it 7-0 Cardinals. “We weren’t supposed to give up anything deep or big plays. We thought if we could keep them from big plays, we could stop them,” explained Carpinteria coach Ben Hallock of his team’s defensive plan. After another Warrior three and out, Bishop went back to the ground game, driving down to the Carpinteria 4. Molina carried it in from there, to make it 13-0 with 8:27 until halftime. Bishop had one more chance to add to the lead before the intermission, but Carpinteria was able to hold the charge, forcing a missed 35-yard field goal attempt to keep it at a two-touchdown game at the half.

Although the 2014 edition of the Little Big Game did not fall in the home team’s favor, Carpinteria High School football players past joined at half time to remember the 1964 game. In that contest, a 12-7 Warrior victory, Rich Medel, center, scored the winning touchdown on a punt return. Jim “G.G.” Colson, second from right, was awarded the GI Forum MVP Award, and Mike Donnelly, right, threw a touchdown. Current Warriors Timmy Jimenez (#29) and Jose Sanchez (#68) joined them on the field.

Warrior receiver Omar Miranda (#24) hauled in four catches for 31 yards against Bishop, but the Warriors felt the heat of undefeated Bishop throughout the 33-7 home loss.
WARRIORS: CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17
When Bishop’s A.V. Bennett ran through the Warrior defense for an 82-yard touchdown on the kickoff to open the third quarter, things looked grim for the home team as the lead grew to 19-0. On the ensuing possession, behind the strong running of Aaron Vargas, Carpinteria earned a first down at its own 35. Vargas was the leading rusher for the Warriors with 58 yards on 11 carries. However, Graves’ pass downfield was intercepted by Matthew Shotwell, giving the visitors a first and goal at the Warrior 9. Two plays later, Stovesand’s 5-yard toss to Harris, made it 26-0 Cardinals following the extra point. Towards the end of the third with the score still the same, the Warriors brought in backup quarterback Noah Reed. Reed had some success through the air, mainly targeting Omar Miranda. Miranda would lead the team with four catches for 31 yards. But Shotwell came up with his second interception, converting it for a 60-yard touchdown to build the lead in the fourth quarter to 33-0. Shotwell was named MVP of the game for his performance. For the first time in three games, Carpinteria was able to find the end zone with Rudy Beltran running it in from 13 yards out to cap off the scoring. The Warriors (4-5, 0-2 Tri-Valley League) travel to play Fillmore High School for the final game of the season this Friday night at 7 p.m.

AGIA raises over $72K for United Way
Giving money away never felt so good for employees of AGIA. On Oct. 29, the Carpinteria-based insurance services company raised over $72,000 for United Way with all-in-good-fun opportunities to stick it to the bosses in a dunk tank. Employees paid for chances to dunk company execs, and their contributions amounted to more than $46,000, which company President John Wigle matched at 50 percent. The festive day on Eugenia Way saw over half of the company’s employees make a donation toward the youth nonprofit organization.
Chamber to hold Business @ Breakfast
Fast-paced and fun, the Business @ Breakfast series held by the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce will continue this week with an event on Friday, Nov. 7 from 7:15 to 9 a.m. at Rincon Beach Club, 3805 Santa Claus Lane.

The company specializes in executive and celebrity protection, event security, corporate security, estate and residential security details, healthcare and hospital security and private school safety security.

Critical Solutions employs off duty and retired police officers who have extensive experience and proven loyalty. Employees have experience in tactical, surveillance operations, consulting, large venue security and retail security, according to Mr. Bercovici. Critical Solutions operates in the United States and has employees in the United Kingdom and Europe. For more information, call (800) 278-4575 or visit criticalsolutionspsg.com.

Measure u has passed, and Carpinteria schools are soon to receive $90 million worth of modernization. rincon school, located along Carpinteria Creek at the site of today’s lions Park, was among a small handful of early Carpinteria schools. tina rodriguez, whose rich childhood memories were recorded in a longtime Carpinteria Herald column “las Memorias de tina,” attended the little school. she wrote the following: “At about the turn of the century, i attended the rincon school on Casitas Pass road … i was a little red-headed, freckle-faced girl who enjoyed my school days. We had a wonderful teacher, Mr. George Metcalf, who taught 60 girls and boys in grades one through ten … the classroom was one big room with a small woodstove for heating. there were slate boards all around the room where we often wrote our arithmetic and spelling … the Carpinteria Creek was one of our main playground MuSeuM of HiStory spots.

Crawling from the grave
The month-long arts outreach celebrating Dia de los Muertos culminated in the splashy and spooky Dia de los Muertos crawl from Carpinteria Library to Carpinteria Arts Center on Nov. 1. The event, co-directed by Lisa Thomas and Suzanne Requejo and guided by artist in residence Carlos Cuellar, resulted in dozens of altars, skulls and decorations in celebration of the Mexican cultural celebration of those who have moved onto the afterlife.

How to write better by following this one, simple rule Part two
the write practice Carpinteria Library recommendation “A Tale for the Time Being” by Ruth Ozeki
“A time being is someone who lives in time, and that means you, and me, and every one of us who is, or was, or ever will be,” writes Nao, a Japanese schoolgirl who plans to “drop out of time”—to kill herself as a way of escaping her dreary life. First, though, she intends to write in her diary the life story of her great-grandmother Jiko, an anti-war activist turned-Zen Buddhist nun. But Nao (pronounced now) actually ends up writing her own life story, and the diary eventually washes up on the shore of Canada’s Vancouver Island, following the earthquake and tsunami in Fukushima. Struggling novelist Ruth finds the diary in a freezer bag with some old letters in French and a vintage watch. Ruth’s investigation into the mystery of how the bag traveled from Japan, and why it ended up on her island, in her hands, leads to the entangling of both their lives. ––Tara O’Reilly, Carpinteria Library Supervising Librarian
Friends of the Library Used Books Store recommendation
JOE BUNTING If you took my advice in last month’s column and Googled, “How to Be a Better Writer,” you probably found dozens of articles with thousands of tips on how to write everything from emails to newspaper articles to novels. How is one to follow all those rules? Unfortunately, most writing advice is really based on the personal preferences of the person giving the advice. Instead of thousands of rules on writing, how about just one: be interesting That makes intuitive sense, right? Interesting writing covers up a multitude of writing sins. Last month, we talked about three things that make your writing uninteresting. Today, let’s talk about how to make your writing more interesting.
“Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt” by Michael Lewis
Recently I heard Michael Lewis speak to a packed house at the Granada Theater. He has 15 books to his credit, two of which were made into the hit films “The Blind Side” and “Money Ball.” Ironically, he describes himself as pathologically lazy and committed to “perform as little work as humanly possible.” Later, it became obvious that Lewis adheres to the Confucius adage “The man who loves his job never works a day in his life.” Lewis explained that to enjoy writing his books, like his latest “Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt,” he must intellectually and emotionally connect with the characters he interviews. Brad Katsuyama, the protagonist of this book, pulls back the curtain on the “dark pools” of high frequency trading where, for a fee, stock exchanges allow sophisticated high-frequency traders to view a “flash” of information about buy and sell orders fractions of a second prior to public posting. This “front running” activity allows high-frequency traders to profit from transactions in which they are indirect, technically advantaged participants. Yes, it’s confusing, complex and an ethically charged topic; however, Lewis makes it read like an espionage thriller. ––Tom Banigan, Friends of the Library customer
Student recommendation “Graceling” by Kristin Cashore
In a land of seven kingdoms, there live gifted people, who have special talents called Graces. Katsa is one of these people, graced with the ability to kill people with her bare hands since she was a small child. Her uncle, the king of her land, recognizes her talent, and uses her to enforce his tyrannical rule. Prince Po, another Graceling, visits Katsa’s kingdom, searching for his kidnapped grandfather. Soon, Po and Katsa become friends, and she joins him on his quest, not realizing just how dangerous it will become or how close she and Po will become as they journey together through the many different lands surrounding their kingdoms. Kristin Cashore has given us a heroine much like Katniss from “The Hunger Games”—a strong, ambitious young woman who is willing to stand up for both herself and those she cares about. Cashore’s writing flows beautifully, with language as varied as it is vivid, and the story unfolds in a manner that keeps the reader intrigued without revealing everything at once. Fans of “The Hunger Games” and “These Broken Stars” are sure to enjoy the adventures of Katsa, lady warrior. ––Audrey Lent, Santa Barbara City College student
What makes writing interesting?
Here are just a few things that make writing interesting: Humor Sex (that’s an easy one, though!) Surprise Awe Romance Secrets Conflict Sacrifice Virtuosity (like an amazing guitarist or saxophone player, we like writer’s who are virtuosos with words) Rhyme Rhythm Ourselves (we all think we’re the most important person in the world) I’m sure you could think of dozens of others, and we’ve covered some of them here in this column. However, no matter how much advice about writing you read, your core rule as a writer: above all, be interesting. When you write, ask, “What’s Interesting About This?” Whether you’re writing an essay for school, an email, a blog post or a novel, ask yourself, “What is interesting about this? How can I present this subject in a way that’s more interesting?” Because if you succeed at being more interesting, you will instantly have succeeded at writing better. How about you? What do you find interesting as a reader?
Practice
Write something interesting. You can use the list above as a reference. Write for 15 minutes. When you’re finished, share your practice with a friend to get feedback. You can even share your practice on The Write Practice website at thewritepractice.com/how-to-write-better. 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.com.

Coastal View & Carpinteria Library Book Club “Tinkers” by Paul Harding
Moving out of life and into death, elderly watch repairman George Washington Crosby takes readers on a journey into his past, where memories of his epileptic tinkerer father return and feed the dying man. “Tinkers” by Paul Harding won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and will be discussed by the Coastal View & Carpinteria Library Book Club on Wednesday, Nov. 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. The Pulitzer board called the novel “a powerful celebration of life in which a New England father and son, through suffering and joy, transcend their imprisoning lives and offer new ways of perceiving the world and mortality.” The book club is open to anyone who wishes to read and discuss the novel, and copies can be borrowed from the local library. For more information, call Librarian Tara O’Reilly at 684-4314.

CVN conquers Whitney
On Sept. 15 at 2:10 a.m. Chris Johnson and Peter Tatikian began their ascent of Mt. Whitney, the highest peak in the contiguous U.S. at 14,505 feet. To tackle the 22-mile roundtrip hike, they trekked in the early dark, through the day’s sunrise until they summited sometime around 11 a.m. to snap the photo and claim the mountaintop in the name of CVN. They returned to the base of the Sierra mountain at 4 p.m. The mountain men got lucky with agreeable weather, as lightning and thunderstorms are not uncommon at that time of year. The stone hut in the background is the Smithsonian Institutional Shelter, used in part for research, part for shelter from storms for climbers. It was Chris’ first time conquering the peak and Peter’s second time.

Banks bank 10 years of marriage in Hawaii
A direct hit from Tropical Storm Iselle, and a near-miss from Hurricane Julio, did not deter the Banks family from a trip to Kauai to celebrate Brian and Michele’s 10th wedding anniversary. The couple returned to their island wedding location to enjoy snorkeling, hiking and biking with daughters Allison and Emily. One stormy day of the trip allowed the family a restful afternoon of lounging around their condo and reading the Coastal View News.

Ahoy mateys
Carpinteria State Beach campers Linda Moran, Jody Johnson and Marcella Franklin cut fine figures against a windswept sunset. The three siblings, along with eight other brothers and sisters, grew up camping in Carpinteria all summer long. The family would annually pack up and leave its suburban Los Angeles home to sleep in a tent until school started again. Now the kids have their own kids, and their own summer camping traditions in Carpinteria.
