Fire board looks to 2015 for bond measure

Join hands

By Lea Boyd

The Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District Board of Directors appeared closer to unity at its May 20 meeting but still seemed at least one vote shy of the unanimity Board President Ben Miller seeks before taking action toward a $10-$12 million bond measure for new fire stations. While once-reluctant Boardmember Bill Taff chimed in with his support for placing the decision before voters, Boardmember Chris Johnson said that he still wasn’t convinced that plans for a new Summerland fire station couldn’t be downsized to arrive at a more palatable price for voters. “I am certain that we can do something that is not two story, that does not have an elevator and that can be done for a lot cheaper,” he said. Some members of the public have claimed that plans to replace Summerland’s small and seismically unfit station with a larger building on a $1 million-plus property are grandiose. Fire Chief Mike Mingee argued that what has been called the “Taj Majal of fire stations” is actually a scaled down version of what was first considered, and some of its expensive features, such as the elevator, were permitting requirements. The community room that has been described as unnecessary by opponents, Mingee said, is a relatively small room that would serve the district as well as provide a space for other organizations to meet.

Canalino and Family school students chalked the campus and their hands during an event in tribute to Santa Barbara’s annual I Madonnari Festival. Colorful creations blanketed the schoolyard on May 15 ahead of the schools’ open houses, at which parents could view the Italian street paintings. The annual Santa Barbara I Madonnari Festival occurred at the Santa Barbara Mission last weekend, and the artfully appointed sections of pavement can still be viewed.

Parents beg district for answers in threat incident angry parents of local special education students stood up at a recent school board meeting and publicly criticized Carpinteria Unified school District’s response to a December incident in which Kevin Hosseini, a 19-year-old autistic student, made mortal threats against teachers and fellow students while checked into a mental health institute. “I need to know what’s going on. If there’s a situation, what is your protocol?” asked Julie Smith, mother of two girls then enrolled with Hosseini in the success and Education of adult life Skills program, a program designed to help students with developmental disabilities transition to adult life following high school. In the weeks following the incident, Hosseini voluntarily left the district and moved to another state. Claiming the incident was handled

inappropriately, several parents and staff members filed formal complaints against the district last winter. The district, they say, should have informed parents and staff of the threat made and taken greater actions to ensure theirs and their children’s safety. Months after complaints were filed, parents had still not received communication from CUSD, despite the passing of deadlines for resolution as dictated by policy. “This has singularly been our worst experience with the district in 15 years,” said parent Mary Watts. she asked for the outcome of an independent investigation launched by the district last winter as well as some explanation of how the district will respond differently to the next such threat. “It’s not if it happens again, but when it happens again,” she said.

“My safety and the safety of students and colleagues is of utmost importance to me.” ––Cindy Rief, CUSD teacher

Superintendent Paul Cordeiro said that since the May 13 meeting, multiple parents have been contacted by the district to discuss the situation. The investigation, however, is ongoing, and Cordeiro said that parents and teachers will have to be patient and allow for the investigator to conclude her work. “If a tornado rips through a town, you don’t fix the town in 24 hours,” he said. Cindy Rief, one of the teachers directly targeted by the threats, said the district was negligent and failed to act

on the behalf of herself and her students when Hosseini threatened to stab them. “My safety and the safety of students and colleagues is of utmost importance to me,” she said. Cordeiro said the district always errs on the side of caution in the case of a threat. “We did what we were supposed to do at the right time and in the right way,” he said. He expects the report on the investigation will be filed soon. ––Lea Boyd

SHERIFF BILL BROWN EARNED HIS STRIPES, BARS AND STARS BEFORE HE PUT ON THE BADGE. HE LEARNED THE JOB BEFORE HE EARNED THE JOB

HE HAS EXTENSIVE EDUCATIONAL AND MANAGEMENT CREDENTIALS

Being a sheriff today is too important for onthe-job training. It requires a chief executive who knows the job inside out. Who knows when to enforce and when to listen.

Sheriff Brown earned a Master’s degree in Public Administration from USC, and graduated from some of the nation’s foremost law enforcement leadership institutions, including both the FBI National Academy and the FBI National Executive Institute. “I strongly support Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown for reelection. He is one of California’s top law enforcement leaders with a track record of success. He is resultsoriented, and has impeccable integrity.” Governor Jerry Brown

Bill Brown had nearly three decades of law enforcement experience as a police officer,sergeant, lieutenant, acting captain and chief of police (twice) before being elected sheriff.

HE IS DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT OTHERS Sheriff Bill Brown serves in leadership roles with organizations such as the North County Rape Crisis & Child Protection Center, Domestic Violence Solutions, the United Boys & Girls Clubs, and the Pierre Claeyssens Veterans Foundation. Sheriff Bill Brown has proven he’s an experienced, dedicated and involved leader whose qualifications and achievements have resulted in a safer, stronger and more concerned community.

He has served as our sheriff for more than 7 years with strength, compassion and distinction, and is endorsed for reelection by dozens of community leaders from both sides of the aisle.

HE HAS A STRONG TRACK RECORD OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS Sheriff Bill Brown skillfully spearheaded the north county jail project, obtaining almost $120 million in state funding for this long-needed facility. Since taking office he has improved transparency, crime fighting and prevention, gang and narcotic enforcement, offender reentry, and he returned the D.A.R.E. program to our schools. All of this was achieved while leading the Sheriff’s Office through the toughest financial challenges in its history.

CHS lands $1 million in after school funding

Carpinteria Unified School District learned this month that it has been chosen to receive a $1 million grant to support after school programs at Carpinteria High School for the next five years. The 21st Century Community Learning Center Grant, After School Safety &Enrichment for Teens (ASSETS) will serve up to 140 CHS students in college admission preparation, enrichment programs in areas such as music, art, science and culinary arts, and tutorials for students who need extra support toward graduation. Superintendent Paul Cordeiro said that the grant will allow the district to pull together various support systems and create steady funding for existing and new programs. “This funding for five years is pretty extraordinary,” he concluded. Specific programs will be defined over the summer. District administrators expect to spend the first of the five years implementing and refining programs and have a full spectrum of programs in place for the 2015-2016 school year.

Land Trust announces new employee

The group that keeps its eyes open for opportunities to preserve open space recently gained a team member. The Land Trust of Santa Barbara County announced it recently added Carla Frisk as a land conservation consultant. “Ms. Frisk brings a wealth of expertise gained through her work for non-profit organizations, elected officials and government agencies for the past forty years,” stated the Trust’s President, Richard Nagler. During her 20 years as District Director for then-Senator Jack O’Connell, Frisk made significant community connections which will be of great assistance to The Land Trust in its work throughout the county, according to a press release. She also worked for the County of Santa Barbara prior to a stint with the California Coastal Commission, and later served as a Planning Commissioner Carla Frisk, The Land for the Third Supervisorial District, providing her a Trust for Santa Barbara background in land use planning. Ms. Frisk spent the County land conservation last decade working on land conservation projects in consultant Santa Barbara County for San Francisco-based The Trust for Public Land, through which she developed expertise in land transactions and grant writing.

Carpinterians considering going solar should get serious about harvesting sunlight in the next three months. Carpinteria Valley Association and the Community Environmental Council have teamed up to launch Solarize Carpinteria Valley, a program that discounts residential solar electric systems through group-purchasing power. Through Aug. 16, locals will receive discounts through solar installers REC Solar and Allen Energy. “The Solarize program offers Carpinteria Valley and Summerland homeowners a streamlined process and a discounted price for solar from local, vetted installers,” explained Jefferson Litten, CEC’s Solarize Program Manager. CEC’s past Solarize programs have brought solar to more than 260 homeowners on the Central Coast at 15 to 25 percent less than the average price in the area. “A vital component of Solarize is education,” noted Litten, “Many homeowners are not aware that they can start saving right away by switching to solar.” To this end, community workshops will be held on Wednesday, June 4 and Thursday, July 17 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at Carpinteria Library, Multipurpose Room, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.

Carpinteria remembers well

On Memorial Day, my husband and I went to the Carpinteria Cemetery to attend the event honoring our men and women who sacrificed their time and lives to keep us all free. As we entered, a Cub Scout greeted me with a program and directed me to the rows of seats. Busyness was all around: flags, uniforms, proud men and women wearing military hats allowing me to know their branch of service. It was a happy and yet a solemn feeling. Everything was perfect, including the speakers, flags, flower presentation and cannon salute. The flyover by the planes was so touching, especially when the “missing man” plane flew off in the opposite direction. I was emotionally touched by the event. After the ceremony ended, I noticed containers of flowers provided by the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History. Nearly all of the people had left so my husband and I took the flowers and placed one flower on each of the military graves. We did not have enough flowers for every grave. Next year I hope there will be enough donated flowers for each military person. All the men and women who served in the military are heroes to me. They are the reason that we live in a free country. God bless them all.

Don’t let tradition die

I am writing this in regards to the Carpinteria Indian Tackle Football program that the Carpinteria Boys & Girls Club runs every year. For those that have lived here for some time, I’m sure you realize what a big football town we are for such a small sized community. The reason I am writing this is because we are in need of your help. We are in need of sign ups—both players and volunteers. The program has shown a decline in numbers for the past few years. Everyone may have their opinions as to why this has occurred and everyone is definitely entitled to them. As the current athletic director, it is my promise to you, the community, to give you my all in reigniting our tackle football program. Ultimately, this is the community’s program. This is a great program that teaches our youth the importance of hard work and discipline, all while making memories to last for the rest of the players’ lives. It is my hope to get these players ready for Warrior Football so that they know that “Warrior Spirit Never Dies.”

Ibrahim sets example for true conviction

Inspiration and caution, which rarely make eye contact in most narratives, are certainly front and center in the story of an eight-months pregnant Sudanese woman, Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, who has been sentenced to death for her religious convictions. Her commitment to Christianity certainly clarifies the distinction between a Monday morning arm-chair Christian and the real article, who lives, breathes, and if necessary, dies for her religion. To characterize Ms. Ibrahim as remarkable would be putting it mildly. And, as far as cautionary tales go, those working toward blurring the constitutional line between church and state should be cautious, for they’re on a slippery slope. Ms. Ibrahim’s story makes it, to quote Jack Nicholson, “crystal clear,” where their self-righteous slide on the aforementioned slope ends. It should also be pointed out that folks who trot out their religion to jumpstart a business deal or leverage political muscle had better pray that karma, religious or otherwise, is nothing more than a figment of someone’s imagination. Because if it isn’t, they’re in a world of trouble, and deservedly so.

Reverse osmosis can slake a garden

I also was taken aback at the amount of water that our reverse osmosis filter was discharging down the drain (CVN, Your Views, May 22). I noticed that the discharge tube was just about the size of regular drip irrigation tubing. In fact, a regular drip-system barbed connector fit perfectly, so I just connected it to a drip irrigation tube that I ran out to the garden. Now, whenever we have a drink, a few minutes later our garden gets a drink too!

Go with gray water

Last week we had a plumbing contractor install a gray water system for our toploading washer. The system allows you to toggle between the normal drain and an outside connection. On Sunday we ran our first two loads of wash. I measured the output and learned that each washing and spin-drying cycle uses 24 gallons of water. That water is now being diverted to water our landscaping. We are also using a special bio-compatible detergent, which does not have any sodium. It seems to clean our clothes just fine. It’s in everyone’s interest to conserve water as there are no assurances that next March will produce another miracle.

Elected leaders represent failure

You can’t have a sense of success if you haven’t failed. We, the citizens of the greatest country in the world, have failed badly in our choice of leaders. I respect those who disagree, but it is my honest

and sincere belief that President Obama and our California elected representatives (Boxer, Capps, Feinstein, Pelosi) represent failures. We put them in office. For future success, I genuinely hope we will correct our mistakes. One gains little by disrespecting and insulting others. That merely indicates how shaky one’s position is. I ask readers to appreciate I am listing what I honestly view as presidential flaws of President Obama. He is an ideologue who views desire for wealth and success as evil, has little understanding of business and finance, has weakened our nation militarily, disrespects the Constitution and promotes wealth redistribution (a total disaster). He is creating a welfare society, has butchered the health insurance issue, inspires no respect from world leaders, has no sense of what it means to compromise, is dishonest and deceitful in his correspondence with U.S. citizens, is unwilling to accept responsibility for failures, makes childlike insults about those who disagree with him, is seriously hurting those who he claims to help (middle class, minorities), has caused race relations to deteriorate and has energy policies detrimental to employment and future progress. President Obama’s railings against large profits totally ignore the fact that portions of profits are returned to middle class shareholders as dividends or used to make improvements that can lead to future employment. Bottom line: He lacks an understanding of what has made America great. Sadly, unlike many former presidents, he has not “grown” in office. I respect intelligent and caring people who disagree. Whatever your political beliefs, view the overall national situation realistically ... and be willing to correct mistakes.

FIRE BOARD: ContInuED fRoM PAGE 1

Johnson pointed to last year’s telephone poll indicating decreasing voter support for a bond as the price incrementally increases. “Every bit of money makes a big difference in support,” he said. A redesign that saved $500,000, he added, would be worth considering. Boardmember Craig Price argued against Johnson’s suggestion to go back through the arduous planning process and risk losing the district’s alreadysecured Coastal Development Permit— approval he described as “worth it’s weight in gold”—just to decrease the cost to property owners by what might amount to a couple dollars per $100,000 of assessed home value. A November bond measure has been off the table since the board’s meeting last month, when President Miller stayed a vote due to remaining skepticism from Johnson and Taff. At the most recent meeting, Johnson questioned the need for a unanimous board, assuring his fellow board members that even if he voted against the majority, he would not sabotage the bond measure. Of the measure’s failure to launch, he said, “Don’t put it on me, or (Taff), or the firefighters.” Studies show that a unified board sets the stage for successful elections, Price explained of the rationale for postponing a vote. Miller added that without a unanimous board, the measure would be more vulnerable. “It casts doubt over the project,” he said. Summerlanders took to the podium to voice their dismay over the process. The small community was highly involved in the design of a replacement Summerland station, and the recent lack of forward momentum has caused frustration and confusion among many residents of the town. “Get it done, and get it done yes-

terday,” said Hank Weedn to the board. The next opportunity to put a bond measure before voters will be in a special election next spring. Boardmember Price noted that the lack of competition in a special election could work to the fire district’s advantage. November’s ballot is likely to include a local school bond measure as well as a Santa Barbara City College bond measure. A citizens ad hoc committee that met several times last winter and developed a list of recommendations for the district will meet with the board in the next couple of months to get clarity on how it can assist further. Price said he hopes the advisory body can transition into a campaign committee if the board approves a bond election. Boardmembers Johnson and Taff agreed to meet with architects for the Summerland station to get input on whether adjustments can be made to reduce construction costs.

Burquez, Husted honored for service

The fire board congratulated Wally Burquez for his 35 years of service to Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District at its May 20 meeting. The board also recognized Ron Husted for his 25 years with CSFPD. Burquez, a fire captain since 2003, thanked the board and said that his time with the district has been fun, exciting and sometimes sad, given the nature of some calls. Boardmember Bill Taff said he had enjoyed working side-by-side with Burquez on occasion during his tenure as a firefighter. He noted how rare it is for a firefighter to work for 35 years. “It’s exceptional,” he said.

ann Morrison designed the flyers and programs, John and Sherine Leehouwers, who own The Tent Merchant, donated chairs, and Lisa Martin at Bill’s Copy Shop printed the programs. “Everyone is feeling for the family,” Curtis said. “We are all in this together.” While it may seem unusual that so many people have shown support for the family, people who know Ray aren’t surprised. His wife Janelle said, “Ray has the best sense of humor. He’s always making people laugh, and will do just about anything for you. He’s a fun loving, good-hearted all around happy-go-lucky kind of guy.” The day her husband was told he had a cancerous tumor in his colon, Janelle said, “It was by far one of the hardest days of my life.” In September, Janelle and Ray, who were high school sweethearts, will celebrate their 19th wedding anniversary. Ray is now undergoing six weeks of chemotherapy and radiation and then plans to have surgery to remove the tumor. “We are very hopeful and optimistic. We live each day for today and try to not think too far ahead,” she said. The money raised at the showcase will be used to pay for medical bills and supplement lost wages. “Ray isn’t able to work every day, so that has definitely affected us financially,” she said. Curtis isn’t the only person who has organized a fundraiser for the Martinez family. Family and friends have sold Tshirts, set up a website at giveforward. coms and made plans to hold a benefit softball tournament at Elings Park in Santa Barbara on June 28 and 29. “It’s been amazing.” Ray said of the community’s support. “It is such a good feeling. It makes it easier to try to get through this.” Tickets for the dance showcase, which are $25 each, can be purchased at the 9th Street Dance Shoppe, 4905 9th Street, at Watermark’s office, 4921 9th Street, and at Hurley Optical, 914 Linden Ave.

686 LINDEN AVE. – DOWNTOWN CARPINTERIA Just blocks from the World’s Safest Beach!

By Cat NeuShul Certain people inspire others to go out of their way to help when they are in need. Ray Martinez, a 45-year-old painting contractor, is just this type of person. When Ray and his wife, Janelle, told others that he had been diagnosed with colon cancer in April, community members didn’t just offer sympathy, they mobilized to offer support and organize fundraisers. One of the local people who offered to help was Bonnie Curtis. She owns Curtis Studio of Dance and has known the Martinez family for more than 30 years. She remembers when Janelle first came to the studio to study dance, and knows their daughters well. “I care very much for the family. We are close friends,” Curtis said. Curtis has been teaching Ray’s daughters, Mackenzie and Kylee, since they were 2 and 3 years old. Mackenzie is going to be 16 years old this month and attends Carpinteria High School, and Kylee is 11 years old and in the fifth-grade at Aliso School. They have each taken a variety of dance classes at the studio, including ballet, jazz, tap, hip-hop and acrobatic. When Curtis found out that the Martinez family was facing a challenge, she said she didn’t think twice about what she could do to help them. “When I heard there was a medical issue in the family, the first thing I thought was, we are going to dance and make some money for them.” Curtis is putting on a benefit show, featuring 68 of her advanced dancers, on Friday, June 6, at 7 p.m. in Carpinteria Middle School’s multi-purpose room at 5351 Carpinteria Ave. There will be 15 dance pieces in the showcase. “These kids are going to go out and dance their hearts out,” she said. There are other people who have offered to help with the benefit as well. Families from the dance studio have offered to sell tickets at the door, donate items for a bake sale and raffle off gift baskets. Community members have donated space, money and expertise.

Their memory lives on

City resists FCC cell tower rules BY CAT NEUSHUL

DOBBINS

Military veteran Clyde Freeman, who served in the U.S. Navy from 1969 to 1975, addresses the audience at the Memorial Day ceremonies held on May 26 at Carpinteria Cemetery. Master of ceremonies Peter Bie led the event, which included bagpipe music performed by Robert Guthrie, an honor guard made up of Troop 50 Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts and the Santa Barbara Detachment of the Marine Corps League, the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District’s Color Guard, a performance of “The Star Spangled Banner” by Petra Flynn, presentations of wreaths and flowers by various community groups, “God Bless America” performed by Fred Olivas, a cannon salute by Bill Catlin and taps by Bob Burtness.

Carpinteria Honor Roll

“They gave all of their tomorrows so you could have today” Phillip Bates (WWII) John Miller (WWII-Europe) Roy Benjamin (WWII-Pacific) Felix L. Moon (US Air Force) Francis Botello (WWII-Europe) Charles S. Orne III (WWII) James Petersen (WWII-Europe) Ernest Christensen (WWI) John Contreras (Vietnam) Henry Razo (WWII-Europe) Peter Franco (WWII-Pacific) Charles J. Rodriguez (WWII-Europe) Donald Gore (Vietnam) Jaime Rodriguez (Iraq) Alvin W. Hamilton (WWII) Howland S. Russell (WWII) Robert Sawyer (WWII-Pacific) Cyril O. Hartley, Jr. (WWII) G.

Hendy (WWII-Pacific) John Imbach III (Vietnam) Clay Vaughn (WWI) Edward Lowe (Vietnam) Wilbur Wing (Korea) James McDonald (Vietnam)

Carpinteria is a place where aesthetics matter. Knowing this, the city council voted to send a letter to the Federal Communications Commission voicing concern over proposed regulations that would remove local authority over certain modifications to the height and look of wireless facilities. Under the new regulations, telecommunications companies could do such things as extend antennas up to 20 feet higher, without city approval, and with no requirements to blend in with the existing structures or landscaping. Assistant Planner Shanna FarleyJudkins showed pictures identifying how these new regulations could affect buildings in Carpinteria. She showed a photo of the former Salvation Army building with a wireless facility housed in a roof tile, hidden from view, and then one with the addition of a 20-foot antenna. The profile of the building increased from the 30-foot standard in the city to 50 feet. “These are obviously not the most attractive structures,” Farley-Judkins said. Farley-Judkins recommended that the city council send a letter of comment to the FCC opposing the proposed regulations. The letter states “The Commission’s proposed Draft Rules would allow towers and building-mounted facilities to heights beyond that allowed for other structures in Carpinteria, without public input or regulatory oversight. The City is most concerned about the visual impacts that could result in this coastal community.” The council voted 4-0 (Councilman Wade Nomura was absent) to send the letter. “It’s an instance of someone trying to come in and usurp local control,” said Councilman Al Clark.

Council onboard to build a bridge

The city council also voted on items involving the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge project, which is in the planning stages for replacing the bridge over Carpinteria Creek near the entrance to the Concha Loma neighborhood. The council voted unanimously to authorize an execution of the program supplement agreement with Caltrans to release funds, authorized $1.3 million for preliminary engineering services and gave input on what they thought the new Carpinteria Avenue Bridge should look like. Kirsten Ayars, public outreach representative for the project, walked city council members through a discussion of the different ways the bridge could be constructed, taking into consideration

“It’s an instance of someone trying to come in and usurp local control.” ––Councilman Al Clark.

aesthetics, public safety, environmental issues and flooding concerns. After hearing about the various options, city council members stated their preferences. They all agreed that the bridge should be the same width as the current one, have the lowest profile possible, with wider sidewalks and lanes, while addressing the flood control and environmental needs. Ayars said the plans for the bridge will go to the Architectural Review Board next. She said that about 80 percent of the bridge’s estimated $10 million cost will be paid using Federal Highway Bridge Program funds, and the city will pay about 11 percent. Construction of the bridge is scheduled to begin in 2017 and last two years.

Council gets the 411 on 211

Finding help when you need it will be a little easier now that cities like Carpinteria are supporting the 211 Helpline program. Terri Nisich, assistant CEO for the County of Santa Barbara, gave a presentation explaining what 211 provides and why the county was requesting financial support to keep this program alive. “A successful 211 program benefits everyone, especially our most vulnerable,” Nisich said. People calling the Helpline can get information about mental health programs, housing resources, drug abuse facilities, disaster relief efforts and more. Santa Barbara County has allotted $30,000 to update the Helpline databases and is mid-way through this process. However, she said the county is asking for help to raise the $189,000 needed to maintain the system. She said the county, with the help of community partners, is going to pay for 53 percent of the costs of the program, but is asking cities, such as Carpinteria, to make up the rest. She said that based on Carpinteria’s usage of the program in the past, the requested amount would be $1,200. Each of the four city council members present agreed that this item should be placed on the 2014-15 proposed budget. Councilman Clark said, “I think this is a valuable service with a price tag that meets our budget.”

DROUGHT STILL ON - CONSERVE WATER DOBBINS

United States veterans celebrate the unveiling of new signage at the Veteran’s Memorial Building on Walnut Avenue, which previously been unmarked. The lettering is the work of the Carpinteria Lions Club, which raised the funds and completed the project just in time to present the finished product on Memorial Day, May 26. Santa Barbara County owns the building, and the City of Carpinteria holds a long-term lease on the facility.

When to water and how to water: that is the question garden gossip CHRIS & LISA CULLEN With all the new regulations and water restrictions, it’s time we talked about efficient watering. We have had some hot days in April and May and more are coming. It’s important to know how to make the most of your irrigation.

Mulch

You can accuse me of repeating myself, but the single most important thing you can do for your garden is to mulch. And I’m talking about 4-6 inches of mulch. I’ve said it before, but I’m going to keep saying it. You can get mulch from the County dump, Marborg, Agri-Chip and various tree companies. If you see your neighbor’s gardener raking up leaves, tell him to stop. (Or give you the leaves. Golly, they make great mulch) Once you have gotten lots of mulch covering every inch of your property, we can talk about watering.

Watering basics

Below are frequently asked questions about watering your garden. Q. Some of my plants wilt during the day. Should I water them when this happens? A. Don’t give water to a wilted plant. In the heat of the day, some plants will wilt and the tendency is to freak out and apply water in an effort to “save” the plant. Do not water a wilted plant or any plant in the heat of the day. Plants are stressed when it’s hot, and if you give them water, they will not be able to assimilate it. Instead, wait until evening. Most likely the plant will have perked up. Watering in the early evening allows the plant overnight to absorb the moisture into its system.

Q. I normally fertilize my garden every month or two, should I continue this routine? A. Plants go dormant when they go without water, this means they put their energy into living, not growing so it is best not to fertilize. Fertilization is telling plants to grow, and at this point, we don’t want to encourage growth. With the reduction of water, it’s best to leave your plants alone. Don’t prune unless you must, don’t trim trees unless you must. Give them all a rest.

What to do now

• Apply living compost • Keep mulching • Plant summer veggies and annual herbs • Plant drought-tolerant flowers such as marigold, tagetes, penstemon, salvia and others. They make for a beautiful garden.

Q. I know I’m not supposed to water my lawn, is there any way to save it? A. Good question. It’s a matter of priorities. If your lawn is important to you there are a couple of things you can do to save it. First, mow it very tall, 4-5 inches tall, by putting your mower on the tallest setting. Do not fertilize it and use gray water from your washer if you can. Considering the severity of the water situation, watering your lawn is, well, not such a great idea. But if you must, reduce watering to no more than once a week and only in early evening. Apply a living compost to enliven the earth and hope for the best.

Get to know the industry’s greatest resources:

Q. How can I make sure my irrigation system is working properly? A. Any irrigation system needs to be checked frequently for leaks and to ensure it is doing what it was designed to do. Ideally, do this every couple of weeks. Fix leaks and ensure emitters are working. Q. Is drip irrigation really the best way to save water? A. Yes, the combination of drip irrigation and a controller watering on a regular schedule is most efficient. When plants get water on a predictable schedule they relax and this reduces stress. If you have a sprinkler system you may want to consider converting to drip irrigation.

Local dancers from Bonnie Curtis Studio of Dance recently attended the Tremaine Dance Convention in Los Angeles, where they bonded and learned from the best, before stopping off for a bite to eat to refuel.

Curtis students attend Tremaine convention

Dancers from the Curtis Studio of Dance recently took a two-day trip to learn from some of the most renowned instructors of dance at the Tremaine Dance Convention. The 18 students mixed with hundreds of others in the area in training for five hours a day. “It’s so exciting to be around all these other people who have the same passion that you have. That’s what’s so great about it,” commented studio owner Bonnie Curtis. Local dancers also competed and received scores in the 90s, which is very high, according to Curtis. They performed a contemporary dance, dance medley and tap routines in competition. Tremaine conventions were founded by Joe Tremaine, an internationally known choreographer, and are held in 24 cities throughout the United States.

Cate’s class of 2014, the 101st graduating class, received its diplomas on May 25.

For the kids

Cate honors 67 grads

Cate School held its traditional commencement exercises on May 25, marking the school’s 101st graduation ceremony. With the assistance of the school’s President of the Board of Directors Monique Parsons, Headmaster Ben Williams conferred diplomas upon 67 members of the Class of 2014, recognizing each with a personally crafted citation describing their contributions to Cate. Williams encouraged each senior, in his or her own way, to build a legend. “Maybe what is required of each of you right now is ... to imagine forward, look back, and learn from what you see. Legends ... are not built overnight, but they are built. And it happens one moment at a time, one interaction at a time,” Williams said. English Department Chair Ross Robins, who was chosen by the senior class to give the faculty address, pointed the students toward a journey—one that involves imperfection and uncertainty. Senior Ethan Barretto of Studio City was selected by his classmates to give an address, and echoed Robins. Using a metaphor of a river cutting through a canyon, Barretto assured his classmates: “We have literally always been winding our way towards some unseen future, but only now are we actually aware of it, and I recognize how alarming this can be. We’re coming around a sharp bend in the canyon, but the fact that we do not know what is on the other side cannot possibly impede our ability to get there.” Cate’s Class of 2014 will matriculate to many of the nation’s leading colleges and universities in the fall including Stanford, Yale, Columbia, Swarthmore, Georgetown, Middlebury, the University of Virginia and the University of Pennsylvania.

Aliso School third-graders take part in one of their eight swim lessons.

Third-graders learn water safety

trips to the Carpinteria Community Pool enable third-graders from Aliso School to begin a lifetime of safely enjoying the water. over eight sessions at the pool, funded by Parents for Aliso, the students learn water safety and how to improve their strokes from a certified lifeguard. The splashy lessons also provide a foundation for other water-related materials to be covered on fourth- and fifth-grade trips to Anacapa and Catalina islands.

Presenters Mar Romero, Creative Director at TEAM Hair and Makeup, right, and her assistant share their stories about how they entered their field to a class of Summerland School students.

Summerland students expand career options

Summerland School students had road maps to several careers laid out for them at the school’s inaugural career day on May 20. the event, coordinated by the Santa Barbara County Education Office Partners in Education program, brought two school parents to the classroom along with community volunteers. Each speaker represented a career, which varied from makeup and hair design to finance and a court translator.

Cate downs Calvary Chapel in CIF round 1 BY ALONZO OROZCO

Finishing second (4-2 in league, 9-7 overall) and splitting a two-game series with Condor League champ Dunn School earned the Cate School baseball team a home playoff date against Calvary Chapel on May 23. The visiting Lions also came in with some pretty impressive credentials (10-2 in league, 13-2 overall) as runners-up in the Majestic League and averaging nearly 13 runs a game. But, in the end as in nearly all levels of baseball, pitching and defense ruled the day. The Rams, with some strong pitching and solid play in the field, took advantage of three Calvary Chapel errors to advance to the second round of the CIF-Southern Section Division 7 Tournament with a resounding 7-2 victory. It was a bit of a shaky start for Cate pitcher Carlos Fairbanks, who walked two of the first three batters to open the game. When an inside pitch got away from catcher Zack Ell, the Lions suddenly had runners at second and third. However, a pop to short and a Fairbanks-induced called strikeout enabled the Rams to keep Calvary Chapel off the board. Cate left a runner on base in the bottom of the inning, and the top of the second resembled the first as the Lions loaded the bases this time. Utilizing a pickoff play and subsequent strikeout, Fairbanks was able to keep the score 0-0. “(Fairbanks) was having trouble with the front of the mound, but he made his adjustments, he didn’t let it get into his head, and he threw strikes like we wanted him to do,” explained Cate coach Ben Soto. During the bottom of the inning, Ell’s line drive caromed off the glove of the Calvary Chapel centerfielder, opening up the floodgates for Cate. Nikolas Pajouh then singled, and Ryan Baird promptly singled to right to drive in Ell, then snuck over to second while Lion pitcher Emiliano Chavez held onto the ball. Dylan Ell reached second on a grounder when the shortstop’s throw went into the dirt allowing Pajouh to score on the play. Benton Swain followed suit as his base hit drove in two and the Rams suddenly had built a 4-0 lead. Fairbanks retired the side in the top of the third, and as the leadoff batter in the bottom of the inning, he wound up on third when his liner to left was misplayed. Cate went up 5-0 when the next batter, Zack Ell, singled in his battery mate. “In practice, we’re hitting as well as any team I’ve ever had (batters) one through nine,” said Soto of his opportunistic squad. With a five-run lead, Fairbanks made way for Humza Khurshid, who came in to pitch the fifth. In the bottom of the frame, the Rams added two more runs as Max Vasquez, pinch running for Zack Ell, scored on Pajouh’s second hit of the day. Pajouh was driven in by Dylan Ell to build a 7-0 lead. Although the Lions would finally break through for two runs in the sixth, Khurshid, who also threw well, was able to preserve the win.

Playing at Windward School in Los Angeles, Carpinteria High School baseball (11-12) could not keep pace with the Wildcats (12-7) in a 4-1 defeat to end the season on May 22. Senior Mo Sanchez pitched the complete game but fell victim to two unearned runs and timely hitting by the Division 6 playoffs opponent. “I would like to have our team play a series against Windward. I think we could get them 2-outof-3,” commented Warrior coach Pat Cooney. “Unfortunately, we won’t get that opportunity. Still, the loss comes within the big picture of a good season.” Windward scored a run in the second, two in the third and another in the fourth. The Warriors struck in the fourth when Kevin Stein led off with a double and moved to third on a balk. Sal Delgado slapped an RBI single to score him. Stein finished 2-for-3 to lead the offense, and the senior catcher threw out consecutive runners attempting to steal in the second inning to minimize the Wildcat threat. “The Wildcats applied varieties of pressure, and the Warriors showed early nerves. By the time we settled in, there was too much ground to make up,” commented Cooney. “The difference seemed to be that they connected hits to walks or errors. Our hits and walks were separate, and the lucky bounce was absent.”

Carpinteria Lions honored as district’s top club

For the fifth time in its long history, the Carpinteria Lions Club was recognized as the number one club in its 36-club district. Local Lions were honored for the distinction at the Lions District 4-A3 Annual Convention, held May 2 through 4 at the Santa Maria Airport Radisson Hotel. “This award is a reflection of the dedicated service our club members have accomplished throughout the last year, serving our community, District 4-A3 activities and International goals of Lions International,” stated Club President Jeff Moorhouse. “In Carpinteria, our members have been leaders in the community and actively demonstrating our motto ‘We serve.’” This year individual awards were presented to Membership Chair Ron Tito, Secretary Ron Hurd, President Jeff Moorhouse, Ruben Gonzalez, Bruce Evans and Fred Markely. The club also received awards for visitations, activities and other accomplishments.

Four Carpinteria High School students who have long demonstrated leadership potential are now armed with new tools for blazing trails. Kelly Griffin, Maya Grant, Ana Delgado and Maia Hinton recently spent three days in Ojai at the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards program, where they worked with students from throughout the area to build leadership skills through practice. The four applied for the spaces and were chosen for the program by the Rotary Club of Carpinteria Morning, which also funded their participation. At the club’s May 21 meeting, which was held at Tomol Interpretive Play Area, the RYLA participants were introduced to club members, as well as 2013 CHS grad and RYLA alumna Andrea Delgado, who is wrapping up her first year at Harvard University.

Questions about Freemasonry?

Freemasonry is the world’s first and largest fraternal organization, based on the belief that each man has a responsibility to make the world a better place. The fraternity originated in the Middle Ages with stonemasons who built castles and cathedrals, Freemasonry today provides men with opportunities for fellowship, community service, philanthropy and leadership. The Masons of California have more than 62,000 members and about 340 lodges located throughout the state. For more information, visit freemason.org. Carpinteria Lodge 444 • Call 684-4433

New Eagle Scout lands in Carpinteria

Simon Priest, a junior at Carpinteria High School, recently attained the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America by completing a project to better prepare the classrooms of his school for emergencies. Priest raised $1,000 by soliciting donations from friends, family and community members and applied the funds toward refurbishing and restocking the emergency buckets in all the classrooms at CHS. The 5-gallon buckets, which are for use in a school lockdown or natural disaster, contain a first aid kit, flashlight, food, blanket, water, toilet paper, playing cards and other supplies. To complete his project, Simon coordinated a group of volunteers to help put the buckets together. Carpinteria’s newest Eagle Scout is the son of Stephanie and Marcus Priest.

A new California law requires public school districts to draft and submit what is called a Local Control Accountability Plan. This three-year plan sets forth goals, that, when effectively addressed, improve student achievement. Before submitting the plan to the State, the CUSD Governing Board must hold a public hearing. The hearing is scheduled as follows: When: Where:

Tuesday, June 24, 5:30 p.m. Carpinteria City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Avenue

To view the draft LCAP, go to the CUSD website at: www.cusd.net. If you wish to comment, you can attend the June 24 public hearing or contact Paul Cordeiro, District Superintendent, at: pcordeiro@cusd.net. The Governing Board will be asked to approve the final LCAP at a special meeting scheduled for Monday, June 30 (5:30 p.m., City Hall)

MARK BRICKLEY Seattle is home to alternative record label Sub Pop, dozens of nightclubs and a multi-faceted museum called the Experience Music Project. Its current exhibitions include Hear My Train Comin: Jimi Hendrix Hits London and Nirvana, Taking Punk To The Masses. EMP’s senior curator Jacob McMurry recently shared how the northwest’s signature sound was formed. “Calling Seattle a city of music wouldn’t have stuck if there hadn’t been such a huge (music) explosion in the early 1990s. It put Seattle on the map,” McMurry said. That mosh-pit sonic footprint was called Grunge. It was passionate, furious norules rock. Bands including Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarden all shared the sub-genre’s underground, garage-punk vision. The band most closely identified with the Seattle’s grunge style was Nirvana. The band’s 1991 breakout single “Smells Like Teen Spirit” became an anthem of teen culture. Curator McMurry said Nirvana’s exposure on MTV spread their distorted, defiant songs across the nation much like “The Ed Sullivan Show” introduced The Beatles to America. “Kurt Cobain’s lyrics weren’t speaking to one idea necessarily. Kids could craft them into their own thing. Nirvana didn’t wear stage clothes. They looked like their fans who were rebelling against the music

Q: How did Jimi Hendrix pick the drummer for his band The Experience?

Experience Music Project, a Seattle museum, honors one of the greatest guitarmen of all time in the exhibit Hear My Train Comin: Jimi Hendrix Hits London.

A: After arriving in London, Hendrix selected UK bassist Noel Redding to join his power rock trio. He then auditioned two drummers, Mitch Mitchell and Aynsley Dunbar. He couldn’t decide whose style was the best fit. How did he choose his drummer? Hendrix flipped a coin, and Mitch Mitchell won the toss. He performed with The Experience until the original lineup’s last show at the Denver Pop Festival on June 29, 1969. Mitchell also played with Hendrix’s new band at Woodstock. Anssley Dunbar became one of rock’s top drummers, playing with iconic rock artists including Frank Zappa, Lou Reed, David Bowie, Jeff Beck and Jefferson Starship.

Poop on the barbie

Sleeping it off

A deputy patrolling Carpinteria Avenue near the Santa Ynez Avenue intersection encountered a car parked in the middle of the roadway without any brake lights illuminating at 1:15 a.m. on May 9. Investigating the curiously idle vehicle, the deputy found that it was running and a man, 43, was asleep at the wheel. He proved hard to stir, and when the deputy did wrest him, the man reportedly began fiddling with air conditioning controls in an attempt to turn off the radio. The deputy recommended turning off the car, and the man reportedly pawed at other buttons to the left of the steering wheel. Meanwhile, windshield wipers pivoted back and forth despite the dry conditions. The deputy found the man unable to intelligibly reply to simple questions, and he denied using drugs or alcohol that evening. A clumsy performance on field sobriety tests led the officer to administer a breath test, which yielded a result of .25 BAC. Deputies arrested the man for driving under the influence.

Deputies received a call about tire tracks and damage to a Via Real lawn at 6 p.m. on May 8 and found that the freshly made tire prints left a trail to a neighbor’s driveway. The victim said she had exited her house to find that someone had rearranged her lawn with a vehicle. Following the tracks, deputies found a man, 53, reportedly slumped over his steering wheel while parked and talking on the phone. The officers also noticed a tree shrub dangling from the vehicle. The man stated he had not been in any recent traffic accidents. Deputies pried further, describing the nature of the accident, and the man reportedly admitted to taking a detour onto the neighbor’s lawn and continuing home because he had been drinking. Deputies found one small empty bottle of gin and an additional quarter-empty bottle in the vehicle. The man’s breath test registered a .23, and he was arrested for driving under the influence.

A woman reported she had been victimized by a vandal who stuffed her barbecue grill with feces and palm fronds on Nipomo Drive on May 6. She hadn’t opened the grill for months but was alarmed when lifting the lid and finding the abundance of foreign materials inside. She suspected a former male acquaintance had committed the vandalism. The accused had used her garage to do antique auto maintenance, but they had had a falling out causing a termination to the agreement on bad terms. Deputies phoned the alleged grill contaminator but only got voicemail. With a thorough cleaning, the grill would be salvageable, stated the woman.

Deputies stormed a home with drawn pistols following a report of a violent argument involving beer bottles on Holly Avenue on May 9. The officers encountered one man seated on the porch and another peeking out from behind a bush and ordered the concealed man to come out at gunpoint. In the meantime, a scrappy terrier snuck up on a deputy and clenched his teeth into the back of the officer’s leg for approximately two seconds. The dutiful officer continued his investigation, despite the nip, to find out that the men involved with the argument were broth-

ers, 36 and 28, and one had slung a beer bottle, which was in the process of being cleaned up inside the home. The men said it was just a brotherly quarrel and sought no charges against each other for the dispute. The dog, they said, had recently had its shots. Deputies asked for papers and found that the most recent vaccinations were administered in 2011. The deputy visited the hospital to get medical clearance for the on-the-job injury.

Halos Pitchforks

&

A reader sends a halo to Lynda Lang for her impulsive act of generosity. “Much appreciated.”

A reader sends a halo to the angel who found the reader’s debit card in the Albertsons parking lot and returned it. “You saved me a lot of hassle. Thank you.” A reader sends a halo to coach Ralph. “Thank you for being a great coach. You not only teach the boys the proper game of baseball, but you teach them sportsmanship.” A reader sends a halo to her saviors who came to the rescue when she fell in front of the 76 station. A reader sends a halo to the mother of the autistic child at Carl’s Jr. “I’m sorry, the intent was not to create a scene, and (the reader) will ‘educate’ herself.” A reader sends a halo to the reader who sent the pitchfork regarding the hideous sound walls at Mussel Shoals. “The Coastal Commission was enacted in 1972 to preserve coastal access and views—it failed.” A reader sends a halo to Nutbelly—always delicious food and great service. A reader sends a halo to Renee from Lyft. “Thanks for the safe ride home. I will be using your services again.” A reader sends a halo to Lisa Martin and Julie Miller for being such awesome and energized supporters of the reader’s Student of the Month ceremony. A reader sends a halo to Brianna Balch. “Thank you for all you have done for your students.” A reader sends a halo to Montecito Bank & Trust. “Thank you for your donation to Paddle Out For Hope/Judith Meyer Fight Back Ceremony of Relay For Life Carpinteria. We really appreciate it.” A reader sends a pitchfork to a high school teacher for giving lame assignments to her students. A reader sends a pitchfork to the local grocery store deli whose personnel always give you more than what you asked for. “Sorry, but when I ask for half a pound and get three-quarters of a pound every time, it’s not upselling, it’s just wrong!” A reader sends a pitchfork to the person who has too much time and an overactive imagination. “It’s not a crime if eight people want to share one pizza. You should be ashamed for calling in that one.” A reader sends a pitchfork to the planners responsible for bike path railings and ugly tall sound walls in Mussel Shoals that block the ocean views and coastal mountain views. “The public is at a loss now.” A reader sends a pitchfork to the local Subway for doing away with the senior citizen discount that so many local citizens appreciated.

living mindfully DAVE MOCHEL

What is your practice? I came across a great word the other day—“practic.” The definition is “a person concerned with action or practice, as opposed to one concerned with theory.” Upon finding this term, I looked for the word “practicism,” but could not find it in any dictionary. So I have decided to invent the word. What does it mean? Practicism is an approach to life where your response to any circumstance is an opportunity to build skill. While I may have coined the term practicism, I certainly did not invent the concept. People have been discovering this way of living for themselves and offering it to others for as long as there has been language. This wisdom is contained in the Prayer of St. Francis, the words of the Buddha, the poetry of Rumi, the writings of the Torah, the oral traditions of indigenous peoples, the lives of Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Theresa, the wit of your grandmother, and the counsel of the best advisor you ever had. Gathering around the fire, the kitchen table, the altar and the boardroom, this approach to life has been passed on from one generation to the next for thousands of years. The vocabulary and specifics may vary, but the basic elements have remained constant. Not surprisingly, scientific studies show that individuals and organizations who employ practicism are healthier, happier and more productive than those who do not. Intentionally choosing a response based on what you value most, rather than based on a temporary thought or sensation, is good for your physical and psychological wellbeing, your relationships, your work and your play. Moreover, the people around you benefit when you approach life in this way. Even more remarkably, modern science suggests that the wellbeing of your children’s children is affected by what you practice in your lifetime. Practicism is based on four simple premises:

• You are always practicing something. If you survived yesterday, then your brain assumes that how you responded to your environment was valuable and it stores this information. • You get better at what you practice. Based on your past behavior, your brain builds connections between nerve cells so that you become more skilled at what you do repeatedly. • What you practice is your responsibility. While circumstances and consequences are mostly outside of your control, you ultimately choose your response—no one else. • The quality of your experience is a function of what you practice. At any given moment, you can respond by learning, opening, valuing and exploring, or you can respond by contracting, resisting, avoiding and protecting. What you choose will have an enormous impact on how you experience your life. I received this text from a client of mine last week: “I see that I can be upset and still experience kindness and joy. So surprising. Love it.” Yes, it is possible to find fulfillment and enjoyment even in difficult or challenging circumstances. The scientific literature is filled with the benefits of being able to self-regulate your thinking, your emotions and your behavior. Self-regulation, more so than intelligence or talent, is the key to overall wellbeing and performance. It turns out that the foundation for all of this is control of attention. The more effectively that you can aim, sustain and return your attention on purpose, the more successfully you can choose a useful response to your circumstances. How do you strengthen your attentional control? You practice. Throughout the day you can consciously step back and observe the events, sensations and thoughts that are occurring. I suggest doing this 5-10 times a day for a minute or so. By stabilizing your attention, you develop a foundation from which to choose a skillful response to life. What are you practicing right now?

CVN suns itself in Hawaii

Soaking up island life on the sun deck, Coastal View News recently enjoyed the hospitality of Dorothy Schnackenberg on the Big Island of Hawaii. CVN stowed away with Mike Davis, Kathy Allard Sears, Kit Sears and Pat Sears on the trip to Kapoho, near the eastern tip of the island. Schnackenberg has a beach house there.

Sirianni conquers Rocky steps

On a trip to Philadelphia, Jenny Sirianni visited the birthplace of the United States and also the official tribute statue that immortalizes Rocky Balboa. She saw the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, the site where the nation’s forefathers poured their inspired thoughts into both the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution. After conquering the steps at the Philadelphia Art Museum, Sirianni and her companion were inspired to mimic the triumphant Rocky statue that stands there.
