One of Helene Laine’s most useful possessions is her Public bicycle, which she rides for daily exercise and transportation to her advertising design desk at The Indy. The Copenhagen native grew up pedaling everywhere. Her solution to the recent bicycle-path debate is to park cars away from the curb on wide roads to form a safe bicycle lane. “All you have to worry about is doors,” she said, “which you can watch out for, not like cars moving behind you.” Double-wide sidewalks with a dedicated bicycle lane is her favorite for safety, she said, but probably too expensive. Practical simplicity marks her favorite design styles, too: minimalism, subtle colors, and clean lines.

THE BIG PICTURE: A complicated balancing act called the Gaviota Coast Plan — weighing agriculture, development, conservation, and public use across more than 100,000 acres — is slowly approaching the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors. Their critical vote on the plan may happen as soon as November 1.

Gaviota Plan Coalescing Advisory Document Includes Homes, Trails, Fracking, Incentive Plans for Ranchers and Residents ears of stakeholder spitballing about the fate of the Gaviota Coast is coming to a head as Santa Barbara County planners joust with landholders and environmentalists over designations and regulations across more than 100,000 acres of some of the most picturesque and hotly contested oceanfront property in the world. The end result will be the long-awaited Gaviota Coast Plan, now in the honing stages on a spectrum of issues affecting the region, including public trails across private property, streamlined permitting for farm stands and small campgrounds, the balance of ranching and farming with the protection of endangered species, and whether to allow the owners of mineral rights the opportunity to frack, just to name a handful.

As it stands in draft form, the plan includes better protection of those grand land- and seascape views visitors and residents alike can take in from certain vantage points along Highway 101. While county staffers didn’t heed community calls for square-footage caps on the size of new homes, there is language restricting home height and guidance on properly screening new construction behind tree lines and other natural features.

On the farming front, the plan abides by some of the desires of stakeholder group Gaviota Coast Planning Advisory Committee (GavPAC)—formed in 2009—in terms of easing restrictions on farmers and ranchers wanting to diversify their income sources 8

within the greater realm of agriculture. For example, said Phil McKenna with the Gaviota Coast Conservancy, “You can have an 800-square-foot farm stand with a simplified permitting process so you can test the waters to see if there’s a market.” Other farm- and ranch-related businesses—such as composting and firewood operations—are also under consideration, as well guidelines allowing pau l we llm a n

landowners to open up their property to tent camping and perhaps even a small number of RVs. The plan is also on its way to allowing farmers and ranchers to more easily build residential second units (RSUs) in exchange for allowing public trails to cross their properties, for example, a substantial quid pro quo, according to Guner Tautrim, 42, a sixth-gen-

eration Gaviota resident who helps run his father’s ranch, situated in the foothills between El Capitan and Refugio. Tautrim likes the RSU incentive “because it promotes generational farming on the same piece of property, but this is an incentive applicable for only a select few properties,” he said. However, he added, many of the GavPAC’s smaller tradeoffs — all of which were designed to help free farmers and ranchers from the entanglements of the permitting process — never made it into planning documents. “Our incentive program never got fleshed out,” Tautrim said.

“Now the Planning Commission has a big, difficult job to do on this, and I’d encourage them to honor what the GavPAC created.

We spent years coalescing all the viewpoints, from the landowners to the developers to the environmentalists.”

“An expanded incentives program warrants public input,” said Supervising Planner David Lackey. “We will be continuing to look at more incentives.”

During the August 31 Planning Commission hearing, the Environmental Defense Center submitted that the plan ought to include better protection of endangered species habitat in zoned mountainous areas, which make up roughly a quarter, some 25,000 acres, of the plan’s scope. Community plans for Toro and Mission canyons include these protections, why not Gaviota? asked EDC staff attorney Alicia Roessler. County staff and commissioners are taking it all into consideration. The next hearing on the Gavin ota Coast Plan is set for September 14.

On 9/2, Felipe Martinez-Gallegos (pictured) received a sentence of life in prison for the sexual assault of a 52-year-old German tourist staying at the Ala Mar Motel in January 2015. He committed the assault while trying to burgle her room, an enhancement that led to the life sentence, though with parole possible after seven years. He pleaded down from numerous charges, explained prosecutor Mary Barron, among them a count of sexual penetration, which would have increased his time in jail before parole eligiblility. Martinez-Gallegos had entered the woman’s motel room using a key he’d kept from a previous stay. As she fought him off, she activated an emergency call button on her cell phone. Her assailant ran and was soon found several blocks away.

An estimated six- to eight-foot shark bit a free-diving spearfisherman who was swimming with a friend about 100 yards offshore of Refugio State Beach on 9/1, said California State Park Superintendent Eric Hjelstrom. The shark reportedly injured the diver’s foot and ripped off his swim fin. “At first he thought it was just his friend pulling his leg,” Hjelstrom said. The diver pushed the shark away with his speargun and also captured the interaction with a small waterproof camera. The spearfisherman reportedly swam to the beach and drove himself to the hospital. The beach, temporarily closed, opened in time for its full Labor Day weekend bookings.

The Operation Medicine Cabinet kiosks proved too tempting an object for a Santa Barbara man, caught fishing in one early Sunday morning. In front of the Carpinteria sheriff’s station, a sergeant saw Christian Kulbe with a cord and fishing lure hooking syringes and medications out of the box, placed for safe disposal of unwanted prescriptions. He was booked into County Jail on charges of petty theft, prowling, and possession of stolen property, burglary tools, and controlled substances.

Cold-case detectives used DNA from a 1988 crime scene to locate a suspect in the murder of Vernon Hart Kendrick. A welfare check request had sent police to Kendrick’s apartment on Olive Mill Road, where he

Justin Fareed

Salud Carbajal

Bombs away

Political campaigns traditionally begin in earnest right after Labor Day, and the fight between Republican Justin Fareed and Democrat Salud Carbajal to succeed nine-term incumbent Lois Capps to represent the 24th Congressional District bears this out in spades. Fareed was first to hit the airwaves, broadcasting a 30-second TV commercial likening Carbajal, a three-term county supervisor, to stale and very moldy bread and wilted flowers. By contrast, Fareed, a 28-year-old who’s never held office, is portraying himself as a vigorous political outsider eager to disrupt the status quo. The ad calls out Carbajal by name, depicting him in blanched colors in a rumpled suit. By contrast, Fareed is depicted in full color, sleeves rolled up to take maximum visual advantage of his muscular biceps.

Likewise, the Republican National Congressional Committee sent out emails attacking Carbajal for joining House Speaker Nancy Pelosi at her house several weeks ago for political hobnobbery and policy prognostications from the likes of former Labor secretary Robert Reich. “He has embraced Pelosi’s far-left agenda that will skyrocket our national debt,” wrote Republican spokesperson Zach Hunter.

Hunter reprinted an op-ed penned by COLAB’s (Coalition of Labor, Agriculture, and Business) Andy Caldwell, a North County conservative who’s long locked horns with Carbajal.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) threw down in turn, calling out recent news reports that Fareed’s political mentor — Congressmember Ed Whitfield of Kentucky — just resigned from office with five months left on his term in the wake of an official reproval by the House Committee on Ethics earlier this summer. Fareed spent 15 months working for Whitfield at a time when the Kentucky representative was pushing animal welfare legislation designed to protect show horses from gait-altering practices deemed cruel. That legislation was backed by Whitfield’s wife — Connie Harriman-Whitfield — then a lobbyist for the Humane Society, and the Ethics Committee found Whitfield and his staff improperly allowed his congressional office to be used for meetings between HarrimanWhitfield and other members of Congress. Whitfield claimed to not know his wife was a professional lobbyist for at least three years of the four years she’d worked on behalf of the legislation in question.

Ultimately, the Ethics Committee would find Whitfield did not intentionally violate the rules, but it concluded he should have taken greater care not to tarnish the reputation of Congress. Whitfield has donated $10,000 to Fareed’s congressional campaign. Barbara Solish with the DCCC challenged Fareed in her media missive to return Whitfield’s “tainted money immediately” and disclose what role he may — Nick Welsh have had in the Whitfield investigation.

in June 2010, a detective submitted a DNA sample that was placed into CODIS, or the national Combined DNA Index System. On 8/18, a potential match came up: Larry Lon Lee, held on theft charges in Sarasota County, Florida, had a record in California and Florida, mostly for narcotics and theft. His extradition to Santa Barbara County is being sought, said Sheriff Bill Brown on 9/1, as are murder charges from the District Attorney’s Office.

PAY DAY: Workers at farms such as this one in Guadalupe could be eligible to earn overtime pay.

Opponents argue employers would simply hire more people rather than pay time and a half.

overtime Pay for farmworkers?

Bill Would Close Loophole for Ag Workers

A

by K e l s e y B r u G G e r

state bill to mandate overtime pay for farmworkers could benefit an estimated 18,000 employees in Santa Barbara County. Sitting on Governor Jerry Brown’s desk, the bill—if signed—would ultimately require employers to pay farmworkers time and a half for work beyond eight hours in a day or 40 hours in a week.

Unlike nearly all other hourly employees, farmworkers do not receive overtime pay unless they work more than 60 hours in a week. And most farmworkers are in the fields 10 hours per day, six days a week.

This disparity dates back to the Jim Crow era, when the eight-hour workday was established as a result of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. But domestic workers and farmworkers —largely black sharecroppers —were exempted to appease Southern lawmakers, said Lucas Zucker, a representative for CAUSE (Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy), a proponent of the bill.

If signed, this bill—AB 1066—would start rolling out in 2019. Employers on large farms (with more than 25 employees) would have to pay overtime for farmworkers working more than 9.5 hours in a day or 55 hours per week. The threshold would gradually decline to eight hours in 2022. For small farms, the phase-in would not conclude until 2025. The governor would, however, be authorized to delay implementation if he or she did so with the state’s planned minimum-wage rollout.

Zucker expressed cautious optimism Brown would sign the measure.“I don’t think it’s a slam dunk, but I think there has been a lot of pressure that this is a critical civil rights bill,” he said. (In 2012, Governor Brown vetoed a bill to mandate overtime pay for domestic workers, but a year later, he signed a narrower version of it. Brown initially questioned the effects on elderly people or if the law would reduce jobs for domestic workers.)

County Supervisor Peter Adam, who owns Adam Brothers Family Farms with his two younger brothers, lamented about increasindependent.com

ingly strong regulations for employers. “We just get more and more stuff all the time,” he said.“At some point you are going to notice it at the store.”

The California Farm Bureau urged people to write letters to Brown asking him to veto the bill. Paul Van Leer of the Santa Barbara County Farm Bureau said the group is still in the process of formalizing an opposition. He was hopeful the state organization’s efforts would be successful. “The state farm bureau has a lot of power,” he said, adding about the bill, “It’s not going to benefit anyone in the long run.”

According to a recent survey by CAUSE, just 13 percent of farmworkers in the county — who are largely undocumented Latinos from Mexico—receive overtime pay. Adam said his giant produce company occasionally pays for overtime—on a holiday, for instance.

“We try not to because it costs a fortune,” he said. “But if that’s what the rules are, we will comply with them.”

Both State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson and Assemblymember Das Williams voted for the bill, which was sponsored by San Diego Assemblymember Lorena Gonzalez.

A myriad of other bills are awaiting Brown’s signature, including one to prohibit state government contracts to companies that boycott Israel. Another bill—inspired by last year’s Planned Parenthood video controversy — would strengthen laws about recording and distributing videos if the subject were a health-care provider. Another would prohibit local jurisdictions from restricting the taxi industry, allowing cabs to be more competitive with Uber and Lyft. Another would “advance the development of” the first phase of the statewide high-speed rail project. A measure to implement minimum prison sentences for those convicted of sex crimes is also on the governor’s desk.

Among the bills that failed to pass out of the State Legislature are those to allow online gambling and to increase the number of members on the Southern California regional air district board. n

Last Tuesday evening, Asha Malocsay overdosed just days after moving into her Isla Vista apartment. An 18-year-old Santa Barbara City College student from Livermore, California, Malocsay was already dead when first responders arrived. Though the autopsy is still pending, law enforcement authorities suspect heroin and cocaine, among other drugs, to be the culprit. The death was the first fatal drug overdose in Isla Vista this year, and one of just a handful in the last five years.

“Nationally, [heroin] is making a comeback, and I don’t think we’re that much of an island,” said Father Jon-Stephen Hedges, who sat with distraught roommates last Tuesday night. “I think we have a tendency to miss a lot of things out here.”

Because Malocsay died before responders arrived, naloxone, the lifesaving drug that immediately reverses an overdose, would not have saved her. But its availability has slowly increased in the past two years since state law required it. Now, people — users and potential bystanders — can buy it at pharmacies. UCSB has it.

And the county’s Behavioral Wellness department purchased 300 naloxone kits — dispensed in nasal spray form — and distributed them to shelters, narcotic treatment programs, and needle-exchange programs, among other places. But not one kit has so far been administered, according to John Doyel, the county’s alcohol and drug expert.

That may be because Emergency Medical Services protocol states naloxone can be given if respirations are less than 12 per minute, said Lt. Craig Bonner. “There is a fairly narrow parameter in which they can be used,” he said. However, he added, “It will undoubtedly happen.”

Though the Isla Vista Foot Patrol is equipped with naloxone kits, Sheriff’s deputies are not yet authorized to administer the drug should they arrive to a patient before paramedics do. Next month, the Public Health Department is expected to launch its policy and begin training Sheriff’s deputies. According to Bonner, all deputies should go through the training early next year. Paramedics, meanwhile, have administered naloxone 172 times so far this year. Last year, they administered — Kelsey Brugger 195 doses.

city The Santa Barbara Police Officers Association (POA) struck a deal for city cops and other police employees to receive 9 percent in pay increases during the next three years. Negotiations between the POA and City Hall were uncommonly quiet, the first time in many years in which an impasse was not declared.

Originally, the union sought a 12 percent increase, but it became apparent that wasn’t going to happen. On the other side of the bargaining table was interim chief John Crombach, for whom the union has high regard. And with new chief Lori Luhnow just taking over, union leaders were not inclined to push too hard. An officer fresh out of the academy will receive $138,731 in compensation under the new contract.

Santa Barbara City College and the Police Department are kicking in $103,000 each to create a new noise patrol enforcement team — made up of City College students under police supervision — to respond to growing concern by City College neighbors about noisy students. The new squad — known as the Student Neighborhood Assistance Program (SNAP) — emerged out of a series of quasi-mediated workshops that took place two years ago between neighbors and school administrators to discuss issues of concern and ways to solve them. In a similar vein, the City Council adopted resident permit parking requirements for two blocks on the Mesa’s La Marina Terrace near City College. Residents have complained students are taking their parking spaces.

The speed limits for five downtown Santa Barbara streets will be reduced by five miles an hour; three from 35 miles an hour to 30 (La Colina Road, Yanonali from Calle César Chávez to Garden, and Loma Alta from Cliff to Shoreline); two from 30 to 25 (De la Vina from Mission to Haley and Yanonali from Garden to State streets.) For city police to legally enforce speed limits, traffic engineers must conduct periodic street speed surveys to determine whether speed limits match prevailing driving speeds. Of the 12 streets surveyed, traffic engineers found the prevailing speeds were significantly less than the posted speed limits on five of the streets.

Typically, such surveys result in very few changes.

county An effort to include a 21-mile stretch of the 101 along the Gaviota Coast — from western Goleta to Las Cruces — in California’s State Scenic Highway System will reach the County Board of Supervisors on 10/4. The designation wouldn’t affect existing regulations associated with that section of highway, but it would put it on more maps as a draw for tourists while “recognizing how our policies and programs have preserved what’s there,” according to Mindy Fogg with Santa Barbara County’s planning department. With supervisorial go-ahead, the plan will head to Caltrans for final consideration.

At the 8/30 Board of Supervisors meeting, a vote to continue ad hoc talks with the Santa Ynez Chumash about land-use issues was unanimous. Also agreed upon was a contract to add two deputy sheriffs to the five currently staffing the reservation.

HANDS-ON: The project-based learning at Dos Pueblos Engineering Academy is good prep for the real world and a big draw for female students interested in science and engineering.

dP, ‘school of the future’

A

s schoolchildren enter a swiftly arriving future filled with new knowledge and technology, many American classrooms struggle to stay apace. At the same time, though, mounting challenges have forced educators to teach outside the box, and according to a two-hour television documentary set for broadcast on September 14, “the science of learning [is] creating a new vision of the future of education for all children.” Produced by WGBH Boston and Nova — the most-watched prime-time science series in the U.S.—School of the Future takes an in-depth look at changing educational landscapes across the country, including those inside Dos Pueblos Engineering Academy (DPEA) at Dos Pueblos High School.

The segment follows 2016 graduating senior and star softball pitcher Madison Pickett as she works alongside classmates to conceptualize, plan, and fabricate their award-winning “Physics Arcade” year-end installation for the Maker Faire competition held in Northern California. While the narrative describes the need for students “educated in the way technology works,” according to DPEA founder and physics teacher Amir Abo-Shaeer, it focuses primar-

ily on his success closing the gender gap in science and engineering.

Early on, academy enrollment was just 5 percent female. Now, it’s up to 50 percent, thanks to active recruitment of female students and the integration of more art-based coursework in its design projects. “The first thing is to just make it more accessible,”AboShaeer says in the documentary.“It’s mirrors … rather than windows: We [are presenting] this so anybody can see themselves doing it … as opposed to [them] looking through a window at an opportunity that somebody else is taking advantage of.” Dos Pueblos will show the 9 p.m. September 14 premiere broadcast of School of the Future at the Elings Performing Arts Center. Doors open at 8:30 p.m.; the event is free and open to the public.

In related news, Abo-Shaeer and Pickett —who’s now studying engineering at MIT— have been invited to the 2nd Annual White House Next Generation High School Summit, held on September 12 in Washington, D.C. The event highlights students, educators, philanthropists, and entrepreneurs reinventing high school curriculi and college and career preparation. Abo-Shaeer will join Nova producers in a talk about classroom innovations. n

Jackson’s bill garnered only 12 votes of support — Assemblymember Das Williams being one — as lobbyists for developers and unions worked energetically and effectively against a measure Jackson said was necessary to restore trust to the embattled pubic agency that oversees development along 1,100 miles of California coast.

Jackson’s bill came in response to the firing of Coastal Commission executive Charles Lester earlier this year, which sparked a wave of public concern over undue influence of private lobbyists. n

SOUND OF ONE HAND SLAPPING: I wouldn’t know Michael Orozco if he bit me

on the ass. But maybe that’s what he’ll need to do to get the help he needs. Michael, according to his mother, is addicted to methamphetamine; he’s also diagnosed as a schizophrenic. For the past nine years, she’s been chasing after Michael’s comet trail, trying to limit the damage. In that time, he’s been arrested more than 20 times, committed six times to various locked-down psychiatric hospitals, and dispatched to countless soberliving warehouses. He spent six months in state prison, reportedly enticed by the prospect of ice cream and pancakes.

None of this comes cheap. Michael, in the lingo of social service providers, is the Frequent Flyer and the Million-Dollar Manny all wrapped into one. Catch and release might work when it comes to fishing, but it’s done little for Michael, his mom, or the taxpayers. And he’s only gotten worse. In the past year, cops were called to the Smart & Final parking lot where Michael was waving his knife at the voices in his head. Neither the cops nor his knife did much good. Having no place to put Michael, they let him go. He later punched his brother in the jaw. Hard.

He threatened his mom when she was talking with his psychiatric caseworkers. More recently, he was arrested for lewd conduct; charges were not pursued.

It’s a boring story. Unless it’s your son.

A few weeks ago, it appeared Michael finally caught the break his mom had been praying for. A Santa Barbara judge ruled Michael was a 5250 — that’s 5150 on steroids — which meant he’d be held in a psychiatric hospital for two weeks, not the customary 72 hours. And the higher-ups at Behavioral Wellness indicated that they, at very long last, would initiate conservatorship proceedings needed to put Michael in a long-term psychiatric facility known as an Institution for Mental Disease. In the acronym-obsessed world of mental-health professions, that translates to IMD, of which, in S.B., there are absolutely none. This, by the way, is precisely and exactly what his mother had been begging for. As such, this hardly constituted a happy ending. But as new beginnings go, it seemed pretty good.

Until, mysteriously, it wasn’t.

Michael’s mom was shocked to discover her son had been mysteriously released from the county’s Psychiatric Health Facility, despite a judge’s order. Yet again, he’d been transferred to a sober-living facility in Boyle Heights near Los Angeles’ Skid Row. It would be the fourth time he’d been dumped there.

Every other time, he walked. Within 24 hours.

This time, Michael managed to last longer. By only a few days. This time, he was asked to leave. At the time, he was talking with angels and got in an argument with sober-house managers. His mother would discover he

hadn’t been getting all his medications. In the best of cases, a sober-living home was not equipped to fix what ailed Michael. This was far from the best of cases. As of this week’s deadline, Michael was still on the loose. A warrant for his arrest has reportedly been issued.

This, too, has become a boring, predictable story. Unless, of course, it’s your son.

I was thinking about Michael a couple of weeks ago as the county supervisors got a progress report from county mental-health czar Alice Gleghorn on the desperately needed changes she was hired to make. Gleghorn was presenting what’s known in government speak as “dashboard metrics,” designed to show — at a quick glance — what progress has been made. The dashboard in my car is pretty simple: gas, oil, odometer. If Gleghorn’s metrics were on my dashboard, I’d drive off the road. Anyone would. Her metrics—even simplified—were visually complex and intricately nuanced. Without detailed explanation they defied comprehension.

Boiled down, the good news is that the 80 percent of the people occupying the county’s new short-term crisis care beds did not get committed to the county’s psych hospital within 30 days. The bad news is that it takes 34 days on average before kids with serious problems can be seen by a county psychiatrist; for adults, it’s 24. The bad news is only 11 percent of seriously acute-care patients in Santa Barbara reported improvements after

treatment; 66 percent reported that there was no change at all or things got worse. For the first half of the year, the rate of involuntary hospitalizations threatens to set yet another record, nearly twice what it was five years ago.

In addition, the number of county shrinks dropped by almost 20 percent while the number of staff assigned to highly inflamed cases dropped from 145 to 120.

While none of that info belongs anywhere near my own dashboard, it’s all useful information. What was glaringly missing were a couple of metrics that would have really told the story. There was nothing, for example, indicating how many people with mental illnesses are now in county jail — as Michael will soon be. Likewise, there was no info indicating how many visits to area emergency rooms were made by people experiencing some form of psychiatric crises. These are fundamental metrics; they require little explanation. They are the gas and oil gage equivalents for mental-health reform. The usual activists from the usual organizations stood up and made that same point. It was the third time they’d done so this year.

In the meantime, I wondered how Michael Orozco fit into these dashboard metrics.

Mostly, not at all. Until he gets the help he needs, he’ll remain a bug splattered by the oncoming windshield of the county mental-health department. Maybe one day I’ll meet Michael. When that happens, I hope he — Nick Welsh doesn’t bite.

Ron Robertson Sr. 12/22/38-08/19/16

Ron Robertson Sr. passed away peacefully at home on Friday, August 19th surrounded by his loving wife, Nanci, his children and grandchildren. After battling Parkinson’s disease for over 26 years, he was blessed to be set free.

Even as Parkinson’s began to take his physical abilities, he would continue to live his life to the absolute fullest.

He cultivated the values of integrity and principles, and truly epitomized the American dream.

Ron was born on December 22, 1938, in Santa Barbara at St. Francis Hospital. As a young boy, he would visit with his father, Robert and stepmother, Rose, and play with other seven-year old children, including his future wife, Nanci Browning, on Olive Mill Road in Montecito.

They met again at Santa Barbara High School, and quickly fell in love, attended UCSB together and married.

In 1960, Ron and Nanci 14

moved to San Francisco to attend University of the Pacific Dental School, graduating with honors in 1964.

While managing a heavy course load, he worked as a bouncer and a bartender at the Red Garter Saloon, as well as various other jobs and supported his young family. They were able to return to Santa Barbara to open his dental practice on Islay Street, where he practiced dentistry for 22 years. Both of his sons entered the dental profession and like their father, graduated from UOP. Ron Jr. became a general dentist, taking over his father’s practice, and Ron’s youngest son, Sean, specialized in endodontics.

During Ron’s dental career, he invested in real estate— starting with duplexes in Montecito, and then apartment buildings, and finally purchasing the Balboa Building in 1978.

Ron was an avid sportsman, with a true love of the great outdoors. He cherished his fishing and hunting trips to Montana, Alaska, and Mexico.

Additionally, he played senior men’s volleyball, tennis, golf, bicycling, horseback riding and triathlons with his sons.

He especially enjoyed traveling the western United States with his family, and bought a cabin on the Blackfoot River in Montana. For many years, he took his family sailing or power boating to the local Channel Islands where they went fishing, kayaking and exploring underwater.

In 1987, Ron’s passion for adventure led him and Nanci to sail to Cabo San Lucas and around Baja, Mexico for three months.

Ron was a member of the Valley Club of Montecito and of the Rancheros Visitadores (Vaquero Camp). He also served as President of Knowlwood Tennis Club, president of Montecito Trails Foundation and was a member of the Santa Barbara Trail Riders.

He is survived by his beloved wife of 58 years, Nanci; daughter Rosalind; son, Ron Jr. and daughter-inlaw Barbara; son, Sean and daughter-in-law, Sunnie; halfsister, Sharon Kussman; sistern-law, Natalie Clark Harpham; and brother-in-law Richard Harpham. Ron was the proud grandfather of Grant, Brooke, and Evan Robertson; Vail and Jackson Cook; and Emily and Taylor Robertson. The Robertson family would like to thank Pavel Herrera for his nine years of dedication to his friend and companion, Ron. The family would also like to acknowledge Genaro Leon, who assisted Ron last year.

Remembering Mack Mack Stanton 02/05/37-09/07/09 Audrey Louise Davis passed away peacefully on August 22, 2016, in Santa Barbara. At 90 years old, she spent the last two years living with dementia. Audrey was born on February 8, 1926, in Portland, Oregon, to Ivan and Beatrice (Chaneay) Wood.

She attended schools in Portland and majored in art at the University of Oregon. There she met Al Davis, who also attended Grant High School with her in Portland. They were married August 29, 1948, and lived in Portland raising their two children, Kristi and Scott. They enjoyed the outdoors, but the rain encouraged them to move to Santa Barbara.

Audrey taught school and worked at Westmont. In retirement she pursued her art, painting beautiful watercolors. A memorable experience was traveling to Giverny and painting where Monet created his famous "Water Lilies."

Audrey and Al enjoyed traveling and spending time with their seven grandchildren, always encouraging a love of the outdoors and each grandchild’s interests. They were active members of Community Covenant Church.

Al passed away in 2007, and Audrey continued painting and helping others. She could be counted on to drive a friend to an appointment or prepare a special meal for each of her grandchildren.

Known for her smile, her encouragement, and sense of humor, she always added a sparkle to situations.

Audrey was preceded in death by her husband, Al, in 2007, her grandson, Rob Morris in 2011, and her two sisters, Miriam Johns and Kay

Daniel J. Foy died peacefully on August 14, 2016 at Cliffview Terrace, following a brief illness. He was 94 years old, and had been a well-loved resident at Cliffview for three years.

Daniel was preceeded in death by his parents, Daniel and Minnie Foy, siblings Stephen, Harold and Kathrine, and his beloved wife of 64 years, Lillian. He was the only member of his family to have been born in America. His father was from Ireland, his mother from Russia, and his siblings were Canadian born.

Daniel spent his youth in Sacramento. After graduating from Sacramento High, he attended the University of California, Berkley, graduating with honors. He then entered the University of California San Francisco School of Dentistry. After receiving his DDS degree, he spent two years in the military before establishing his dental office in Antioch, CA. With his wife Lillian as his dental assistant, Daniel practiced in Antioch over 40 years before retiring to travel. One of Daniel and Lillian’s journeys took them through Santa Barbara and they decided to relocate, moving to the one and only Santa Barbara home they would share for decades. After Lillian’s death in 2007, Daniel remained in the home until health conditions necessitated a move to assisted care.

Distrust Issues

I

want to clarify some issues arising from the “Dead Pool” article last week [independent.com/dead pool]. To be clear, the Santa Ynez River Water Conservation District (SYRWCD) stated at the outset of the 2016 water rights release that it planned to release all the water available under the State Board Orders that protect our constituents’ downstream water rights. The amount of water to be released was not known (by anyone) until well into the release because it depended upon a complex process of operational conditions. We planned to release all that we legally could, given the drought-stricken plight of Santa Ynez/Lompoc Valley residents, with the single constraint of not impacting the South Coast’s pump barge operation.

It is not clear how South Coast water managers were ever “led to believe” the release would be only 8,0009,000 acre-feet, but it was certainly not because of any such statements from the Santa Ynez district.

Santa Ynez Water Conservation District has always been open to questions from the South Coast water managers as to the Board Orders we abide by in planning our releases. None of these managers asked about the dead pool or about our option with “negative credits” (a water loan). We did not “fool” the South Coast water agencies, but it would have been extremely difficult for us to voluntarily disclose our full legal water allowance, given the degree of distrust that has devolved over time between the downstream interests and the South Coast, especially with the City of Santa Barbara. As exemplified in the “dead pool” article, the inflammatory statements, spurious opinions, and slanderous accusations from its representative have reached unprecedented proportions.

This district has always attempted to work cooperatively with South Coast interests and their diversion of upstream water from the Santa Ynez Valley. In earlier times, we all benefited from professional cooperation.

The district will continue to work cooperatively with the South Coast whenever it finds a climate of mutual understanding, trust, and respect. Right now, that is not easy to find.

— Bruce A. Wales, General Manager, SYRWCD

Treat Stage 1 Mental Illness

I

t was disconcerting to read about the decadesold shortfall of treatment beds for the mentally ill [independent.com/mentalhealthreport], followed by the article about the new $68 million Cancer Center [independent.com/cancercenterrises]. Is that stigma quantified?

Ken Duckworth, MD, medical director of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), said at the July 2016 NAMI Convention that psychiatrists should “stage” mental illness like oncologists stage cancer, and the focus of treatment should be on “stage 1” intervention, not “stage 4.” He was referring to the RAISE (Recovery After an Initial Schizophrenia Episode) trial, a large-scale research project funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. Analysis showed that “the right treatment at the right time” is correlated with an improved outcome; it can change the trajectory of a mental illness. And the right time is early after the onset of psychosis.

Like cancer, mental illness can occur at any age, but most who suffer from a severe mental illness showed signs by the teen or young adult years.

Early intervention can limit the severity of illness, improve function at work or school, foster self-care and social support, and reduce suicides, incarceration, disability, and dependence on mental-health services. A young person with a mental illness can have a life worth living.

Can we confront our squeamishness with mental illness, concede that the brain is part of the body, and strive for a more balanced approach to all illness through public policy and education and even change our vocabulary? — S.K. Alexander, S.B.

Bye-Bye, B Butterflies Bye,

For the last several months, thousands of beautiful winged creatures have been flying through the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History’s Butterflies Alive! exhibit.

The greenhouse-like structure featured more than 1,000 butterflies at a time, which required 7,000 native and nonnative chrysalises to be shipped from Florida. On Labor Day, the exhibit’s last day, (from left) Jayden and Jordan Mitchum and their cousin Lylee Harris said goodbye to the butterflies before the remaining bugs live out the next couple of weeks of their lives in the greenhouse.

or many coastal families, the innocent discoveries of small, polished shards of glass washed up along the seashore have likely morphed into full-blown exploratory missions. Hunting for sea glass is fun, a step up from a typical beach stroll, with the treasures — from common clear glass to various shades of green and brown and even an occasional blue — displayed on fireplace mantels in one-quart mason jars.

Like any collector pursuit, the bigger world of sea glass has deep and very interesting histories — that triangle of polished red might be from the taillight of a 1939 Plymouth — with a dedicated fan base to boot.

Now in its second year, the Santa Barbara Sea Glass & Ocean Arts Festival is one of the best West Coast events for up-close viewing of world-class sea glass collections and the various forms of arts and crafts that rely on materials sourced by scanning wet sand during low tide for hours on end.

The festival debuted last year in Carpinteria, drawing big crowds to a sweltering warehouse space on Linden Avenue. This year, more than 40 vendors, plus bands and food booths, will gather at Earl Warren Showgrounds. Contests, giveaways, and raffles will share the weekend with special guest Mary McCarthy, who will talk about sea marbles from seashores around the world. Raffle proceeds will benefit Explore Ecology, an environmental education program affiliated with Santa Barbara’s seminal Art From Scrap.

“The whole weekend is such a blast,” said Tabitha Bergerson, who will be selling her ocean-inspired jewelry at the festival, “everybody coming together for the love of sea glass.”

ottage Rehabilitation Hospital is now the home of a fascinating piece of technology, the Ekso GT wearable robotic exoskeleton. This FDA-approved device helps patients recovering from strokes or spinal cord injuries regain their ability to walk.

“It really is quite unique because you can help people that have the potential to walk but really aren’t walking very well or not walking at all,” said Dr. Noah Gaines, who works in physical therapy and neurology at the hospital, which is the only facility between Los Angeles and the Bay Area with the Ekso.

It works by strapping a patient into the suit, which uses batterypowered motors to drive the hip and knee joints. The key is that the patient drives the device, so the robot adapts to the patient’s progress, adjusting the amount of power to either side of the body. “The patient is really controlling the robot,” said Gaines. “The patient is telling it when to step, and the robot is sensing how much help the patient needs and is providing just enough assistance.”

Originally designed for use in the military, the Ekso does not come cheap — just one costs around $150,000. But with 17 of Cottage’s patients already being helped by the device, and more coming very soon, the Ekso is already a sound investment. Said Gaines, “We have big plans to use it more and more.”

One of the first patients is 72-year-old Bertrand de Gabriac, who is struggling with muscle weakness, numbness, and loss of reflexes caused by Guillain-Barré syndrome. “It was a great sensation to be able to stand up again,” recalled de Gabriac of his first time using the device. “I started by making 50 steps; then I ended up making 300 steps.” After about a dozen sessions, de Gabriac ditched the robot. “I walked 250 steps with a walker,” he said.“I can’t walk yet by myself, but it’s a matter of time.” Most importantly, the Ekso allowed de Gabriac to “be able to have confidence, balance, and a future.” —Gilberto Flores

in a twist?

hate football season. I hate the nasally din of blowhard announcers and the monotonous green-turf glow that emanates from my living room for hours on hours, months on months as my husband and son sprawl over the sofa like toddlers, yelling stupid things at people who can’t hear them.

I hate the tedious, arbitrary, meaningless debates that football ignites: Who’s the best running back of all time, why that call was bull, whether the ball was fully inflated—and the notion that one group of large men is incontestably superior to another group of large men because the first group’s jerseys have a horsey on them.

But last week I watched football. And I kind of loved it.

Because last week, football — or at least football player Colin Kaepernick — ignited a fascinating debate so fraught with meaning that it had fans setting fire to their jerseys, Americans questioning the very ideals on which our nation was founded … and Sean Hannity tossing the word “Muslim” into the fracas just for fun.

At an August 26 game, Kaepernick refused to stand up with his teammates during the national anthem, later explaining that he didn’t want to “show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.” The 49ers quarterback, who is half black, went on to reference “bodies in the street” and cops “getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”

While some, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, applauded his protest, many were gravely offended by it. The enraged parent of a fallen soldier decried it as the ultimate in disrespect, and Kaepernick’s own biological mother (he was raised by white, adopemail: starshine@roshell.com tive parents) tisked him in a tweet.

Because that’s how life works now, apparently.

But to me, Kaepernick’s stand — or rather his sit — is gripping not for the roar of boos it provoked at the Chargers’ Salute to the Military game (no one is anything but grateful to humans who put their lives at risk for others; relax). And not even for the statement it makes about police brutality and racial injustice (there’s no denying it’s an abominable problem with no simple solution; I mean, really).

What makes this debate so compelling is the myriad other questions it raises—important questions that we ought to have been asking all along. Like these:

 Why is respect for fallen soldiers paramount to respect for fallen citizens?  Who decided that the American flag has to always symbolize our military? Kaepernick seems to view it as a symbol of our laws and ideals, which we’re not currently upholding for some Americans.  When did the NFL begin French kissing the armed forces? Wherefore the uniformed soldiers, dramatic flyovers, and camo goal posts?

And frankly, why do we sing the “Star-Spangled Banner” before sporting events, anyway?  Why don’t NFL fans foam at the mouth like this when a player, I don’t know, gets arrested for dogfighting, child abuse, or rape? A man sat down, folks. Because black people are being murdered and he thought we should think about that.

Kaepernick is a showboat quarterback known for kissing his biceps after a touchdown. But his best days are years behind him, and he may lose sponsorships — or even his job — for this stunt.“To me, this is bigger than football,” he says. “It would be selfish on my part to look the other way.”

I give him props for courage, and for reminding us what liberty looks like. Far as I’m concerned, any bench that upholds Kaepernick’s muchbooed butt is the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Rite of Spring

world premiere Choreographer: William Soleau Music: Igor Stravinsky Rite of Spring is the centerpiece of this contemporary repertory program, and it promises to be a stellar world premiere.

The ballet is set on the company by resident choreographer William Soleau, to the score by Igor Stravinsky, who described it as “a musical-choreographic work, representing pagan Russia... unified by a single idea: the mystery and great surge of the creative power of Spring.” The ritualistic and avant-garde nature of this piece delivers much to contemplate in its exploration of contemporary movement.

The evening will also feature work by other contemporary choreographers, including Edgar Zendejas and the piece he set on State Street Ballet for the collaborative Common Ground production that tours the Detroit Opera House later in the spring. Don’t miss this superb evening of remarkable works!

Worth the Drive: Central Coast sour Fest

B

arrelHouse Brewing Company pushes traditional fermentation deeper into the wilderness by hosting the inaugural Central Coast Sour Fest in September in Paso Robles.

“We are all about good people, good times, and great beer,” said Chris Vaughn, BarrelHouse’s marketing manager.“We wanted to celebrate the craftsmen in the industry that have put these great beers together.”

Fans of wild and sour ales in the 805 and beyond will be offered an intimate tasting experience, with more than 50 breweries representing the best in wild fermentation, often using the fruits, grains, and native yeasts from the region.

These include the following:

BarrelHouse Brewing Celebratory Ale No. 3: This dark sour aged in rum barrels uses plums from Loo Loo Farm in Paso Robles to release powerful aromatics of fresh cherries jubilee, toasted walnut, and smoke. “Rum lends itself really well to dark fruit like plums,” said Matthew Jacobs, sour director. “I’ve known the family that runs Lulu’s Farm since I was a little kid; their fruit is unbelievable.”

Firestone Walker Barrelworks De La Casa: This

indigenous barrel-aged saison is Barrelworks’ “house” beer, celebrating native yeast from the Santa Ynez Valley that’s been harvested from organic chardonnay grapes.

With notes of citrus, tropical fruit, and white pepper, the beer is rounded out by a smooth mouthfeel and tangy crisp finish. “This truly is a living and breathing beer. We do not filter; we do not pasteurize,” said Jeffers Richardson, Barrelworks’ director. “There’s wild yeast and bacteria all the way to bottle, and the result is constantly evolving.”

Telegraph Brewing Obscura Peche: A sour Lambic-

style ale, this is aged in wine barrels from Foxen Winery and enhanced with peaches to produce a light and effervescent beer, with a bright, mouth-puckering tartness.

The finish is dry, with a lingering, fruity aftertaste.“We are really trying to express a Santa Barbara terroir with this beer,” said barrel program director Patrick Ceriale. “We use backyard peaches loaded with indigenous wild yeast, along with our house sour culture, for a very aromatic beer.”

independent.com

The Central Coast Sour Fest is Saturday, September 24, 1-4 p.m. at Barrel4·1·1 House Brewing Co. (3055 Limestone Wy., Paso Robles). Tickets are $65. See centralcoastsourfest.com. The first 25 readers of this column can use the promo code CCSF2016 for a 10 percent discount.

Margerum Wine Company 2015 M5 White: It just had to be a matter of time before Doug Margerum would release a white partner to his Rhône blend M5 that seems to be sold by the glass in every other restaurant in Santa Barbara County. Just like its red relative, the white M5 is luscious on its own but is really meant to pair with food (hence the red’s omnipresence on those wine lists). It’s a blend of, yes, five grapes, in this case 49 percent grenache blanc, 17 perper cent roussanne, 17 percent viognier, 9 percent marsanne, and 8 percent vermentino, coming from Santa Ynez Valley and Happy Canyon.

That’s a heady list of varietals that could become too floral or tropical, but this mix is pleasingly bracing, toned, and tamed. Think of it with richer seafood dishes, when you want something to sing along beside your mango or papaya salsa.

LOQUITA UPDATE: Acme Hospitality, owners and operators of a collection of boutique food and beverage concepts in the heart of the Funk Zone, confirms their latest endeavor: Loquita, a Spanish concept opening this month at 202 State Street.

The menu, created by Executive Chef Peter Lee with input from celebrated Spanish chef Perfecte Rocher, presents authentic Spanish food including hot and cold tapas, wood-fired seafood, grilled meats, and three types of paella. The wine list is composed almost entirely of Spanish wines with local wines that pair well with the cuisine. A full cocktail program features a selection of Spanish Vermouths, farmers’ market Sangria, handcrafted cocktails, and the customary offerings of gin and tonics.

Loquita is located on State Street directly across the street from the train station at the corner of Yanonali Street. The restaurant is anchored by an expansive bar, a stand-up bar counter, and a seated chef’s counter that looks directly into the open kitchen, where diners can observe the action firsthand. The 120-seat space includes both indoor and outdoor seating and a spacious outdoor private dining room for small groups warmed by a fireplace. The outdoor patio seating is flanked by a fire pit. A separate tapas bar named Poquita with a dedicated entrance off Yanonali Street serves pintxos, charcuterie and cheeses, tapas, and house wine and beer.

Chef Lee’s résumé includes the award-winning Jöel Robuchon in Las Vegas and earlier stints at Gusto and Osteria Mozza in Los Angeles. Skyler Gamble, recruited from The Lark, where he has worked since its opening in 2013, will oversee frontof-house operations as Loquita’s general manager.

“I was inspired by a quote I read in a recent issue of Food & Wine magazine that said, ‘Spain is a country with a big heart, a big thirst for wine, a big appetite for great food and a big affinity for art, music and sports,’ ” commented Sherry Villanueva, managing partner for Acme Hospitality, the group behind the restaurant.“Those who live, work, and play in Santa Barbara share these values. Santa Barbara’s rich Spanish Colonial history has defined our city in ways that span architecture, food, [and] wine and even informs our community celebrations. It’s the right time to dedicate our next restaurant to the incredible culture and food that Spain is known for, but interpreted by a contemporary California sensibility that is our company’s signature,” said Villanueva. “It’s no wonder that Spain is recognized as one of the greatest countries for food and dining today. We hope to bring some of that flavor to Santa Barbara.”

more ore simple imple

(Originally published in Alimentum,, April 2013, and about Chef John Downey) Ground up you build your goodness, from near, from dirt, from sea. So simple and so everything. All it takes to attest to something between subsistence and exuberance is naming names, farmers and suppliers, and you’ve done so from the beginning.

Too humble to come out from your kitchen, you let your plates speak for their simple, stunning selves, one at a time, choruses of flavors — arugula, bosc, butternut, saffron, sundrieds, shiitakes — an alphabet of exotics and not so, everything itself so much it’s like peeling away world from world from world, like an onion, or skin, or the sense we’ve been here before but never quite like delicious this.

“Four years has gone by since I made my last record; a lot has happened in those four years,” said singer/ songwriter Sara Watkins (pictured). “Life is bigger now. Hopefully that comes out in the songs.” It certainly does. Young in All the Wrong Ways sees the Nickel Creek founding member expressing ideas and emotions written broadly enough to allow for listener interpretation, yet it also feels intimately personal. Watkins, who will perform at the Lobero Theatre on Saturday, September 10, recently spoke with The Santa Barbara Independent over the phone while rehearsing in Ashville, North Carolina. See the full interview at independent.com/sarawatkins.

“Young in All the Wrong Ways” is a poignant song, as are many on the album. Are they inspired by your personal life or just sketches of imagination? I think even when you imagine something, it’s based in a framework you understand, so I definitely draw on personal experiences in these songs, but they are not biographical, necessarily. I think ultimately it might be less impressive if people knew exactly what these songs were about. [Laughs.]

a CaPella RevoluTioN In 2009, television shows such as The Sing-Off and Glee helped jump-start a resurgence of a cappella singing.

“The revolution marches onward in Santa Barbara,” said barbershop quartet leader Brent Anderson (pictured), a 1970 UCSB grad who’s proud that his alma mater is home to groups such as Naked Voices and Brothas from Otha Mothas.

“Young people are figuring out that it’s cool to sing,” said Anderson, who’s been a member of the Barbershop Harmony Society for 41 years. “The fastest growing age group in our society is age 19 to 29. And if we can get more young people, we can create a whole generation of people who get back to singing.”

Anderson also sings with the Ventura-based Pacific Sound Chorus, an auditioned group of about 25 men from Santa Maria to the L.A. Basin, who are the current Southern Californian champions. Their annual fundraiser concert is on Saturday, September 17, at the Marjorie Luke Theatre, where they will sing along with the Carpe Diem Chorus, about two dozen women from Santa Barbara who are also champs; Cachet, a female quartet singing in the Sweet Adeline style, the female counterpart of barbershop; and C’est la Vie, a quartet of college-aged women from Arizona.

But Anderson is most excited to be hosting Ringmasters, a quartet from Sweden that was the first outside of North America to win the international competition in 2012. “They’re at the peak of their abilities,” he said.

Anderson hopes the music will inspire more people to sing, especially since the barbershop format doesn’t require soloists. “It’s open to people who aren’t accomplished singers on their own,” he said. “Most of us are average singers. We just like to sing, but it helps to be able to carry a tune.”

Anderson is also helping relaunch the Channel City Chorus, Santa Barbara’s chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, which was formed in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1938. A Wall Street Journal reporter happened to witness the first rooftop concert, and his article led to a nationwide craze. Bob Wilke cofounded the Channel City Chorus in 1957, and, after some years of dwindling membership, it’s getting a reboot thanks to the homecoming of renowned singer Mike McGee, a pied piper of sorts.

“There are lots of people who will gravitate toward singing with him,” Anderson said.

Pacific Sound Chorus’s Seaside Rendezvous is Saturday, September 17, at 2 and 7 p.m., at the Marjorie Luke Theatre (721 E. Cota St.). For tickets, call (800) 353-1632 or see pacsoundchorus.bpt.me.

COUNTING K: K Phillips played a hand in inspiring a new wine collaboration between Standing Sun’s John Wright, the Counting Crows’ Adam Duritz, and artist Felipe Molina.

BiBlio-PhilliPs

by Richie DeMaria LETTERS AND WORDS: Singer/songwriter K Phillips — who plays Buellton’s Standing Sun Winery (92 Second St., Unit D) with his band the Concho Pearls this Friday, September 9, at 7:30 p.m.—is a literate man. His biggest inspiration is a poem by Robert Graves, “Love Without Hope,” a piece of succinct storytelling about a passing moment between strangers. “In four lines, he [describes] this bird-catcher in industrial England … he tips his hat to her [the squire’s daughter], and the birds fly out of his hat and up into the heavens, and she’s moved, and he looks at her, and she looks at him, and he’s made this impression on this girl he would never have a chance with,” Phillips said. “I’ve never been a bird-catcher, but I know how it is to do dumb stuff to impress a girl.”

In his songwriting, Phillips is a storyteller himself, albeit a veiling one, who likes mysteries that unfold through multiple listenings. “The art is to hide the art — I want to lull people in with the simple lyrics that, if they can understand, they’re transferred, and they’re feeling emotions. Then they’re feeling, Oh my god, how did this happen?” he said, mentioning poet Billy Collins as a master of deceptively simple lyrical mystique. When asked if his songs were obliquely or openly personal, Phillips said he enjoys the use of narrators in his songs, through which he shares emotional truths: “I like narrators that are as truthful as possible.”

To be sure, Phillips has plenty of stories in his life. Raised on a West Texas cattle ranch by his grandparents in the Concho Valley, where he twice weekly fed “the ugliest cows you’ve ever seen,” Phillips saw the sometimes bleak horizon lines of life from an early age: The region was “desolate,” he said, and his grandfather was also a state criminal court judge. At the age of 18, both his close friend and girlfriend drowned in separate accidents.

Throughout these times, good and bad, music was a constant companion — he took up guitar and started writing songs at the age of 5, and tried out his hand on organ and piano in bar bands by the age of 14. He inherited good music tastes, growing up on Van Morrison and “the great songwriters of Texas”—“I felt like I grew up with the best music a songwriter could grow up with”— and was even named after Kris Kristofferson, eventually switching to K.“It became too much pressure. I was up in my head about it.”

Like many musicians, Phillips doesn’t like to be confined to a genre, preferring the notes to speak for themselves. As influences, he also cites recent tour mates who are more of the pop genre, Adam Duritz (of Counting Crows) and Rob Thomas (of Matchbox Twenty). The tour has been a dream come true for Phillips and his bandmates, who all grew up on albums such as Mad Season and August and Everything After. “It’s been amazing—Adam Duritz and Rob Thomas are two of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, and it just so happens they’re two of the most influential songwriters of any generation,” he said. “It’s nice to know there’s humanity on the other side; they have everything they need, but they still want to help us.”

In fact, Duritz and Phillips both have a connection to Standing Sun Winery. Duritz collaborated on a limited-edition Wild Mouse Rhône Blend and Sky Rocket Syrah, released this year, with owner/winemaker John Wright and Counting Crows album artist Felipe Molina, whose work will be on display at a reception prior to Phillips’s show, and Phillips was present at the piano when the trio hatched the idea in a New York City loft following The Outlaw Roadshow. With the holy trinity of music, literature, and wine all swirling in the mix, perhaps similarly inspirational thoughts will be born anew at Phillips’s show Friday night in Standing Sun’s Barrel Room. n

Director John Blondell’s decision to cast Stan Hoffman, an actor in his seventies, as protagonist Tom Wingfield is only one of the ways in which this production reinvigorates an essential aspect of Williams’s immortal script. In this version, every character’s desire remains trapped by his or her own distorted memories.

As Amanda Wingfield, Victoria Finlayson reveals depths of raw emotion not always tapped by actors assaying this complex and monumental role. The wrenching sight of a distraught mother Paige Tautz and Chris Wagstaffe breaking down in solitary despair after an unsuccessful telephone sales call helps the audience understand how daughter Laura’s fragility could be as much an hat was it that made T.S. Eliot assert inheritance from as a reaction to Amanda’s April to be “the cruelest month”? Surely overbearing demeanor. The way Paige Tautz there’s nothing necessarily mean or painful lays everything on the line in expressing about “breeding lilacs” or “stirring / Dull roots Laura’s inner angels and demons won’t soon with spring rain.” But be forgotten by anyone who witnesses it.

Presented by Lit Moon “mixing / Memory Chris Wagstaffe, too, finds something new and desire,” well, that’s and thrilling with which to amaze us in the Theatre Company. At a different story, and more understated disappointments of Jim Westmont’s Porter Theater, Fri., Sept. 2. it’s exactly this fear O’Connor, the “gentleman caller.” Ultimately, of what catastrophes the unqualified success of this beautifully may arise when these most capricious of designed and thoughtfully constructed prohuman faculties collide that animates Lit duction stems from a deep understanding Moon’s brilliant and innovative production of what unites, rather than divides, the four of Tennessee Williams’s The Glass Menagerie. characters.

The glass Menagerie

T

his thought-provoking and hilarious play takes the bare outline of a true story from the biography of Gone with the Wind screenwriter Ben Hecht and reimagines what it might have been like to adapt Margaret Mitchell’s 1,000-plus-page novel for the screen in just five days. Production’s been shut down by producer David O. Selznick At the Rubicon Theatre, (Patrick Vest), who Sat., Sept. 3. Shows through Sept. 18. has also fired director George Cukor.

Hecht (Joel Bryant) agrees to put in five days reworking the film’s incomplete script in exchange for a hefty fee despite the fact that he has never read the novel. Into this pressure cooker walks Selznick’s new director, Victor Fleming (Cylan Brown), who has been pulled off of shooting The Wizard of Oz to rescue the picture. In order to ensure that the movie gets the script it needs, Selznick locks them

all, including his secretary, Miss Poppenghul (Jennifer Ridgway), into his office at MGM Studios until the work is finished.

Veteran director Stephanie A. Coltrin fires up this terrific cast for an antic evening that flies by in gusts not of wind but of laughter. As the director and the producer proceed to enact the story for the screenwriter, Patrick Vest and Cylan Brown go careening through a kaleidoscope of improvisations and impersonations.

As Hecht, Bryant attempts to initiate a serious conversation about the moral shortcomings of the Mitchell material, attempts that are consistently thwarted, as are his appeals to Selznick’s sense of ethnic solidarity. In the end, the ageold riddle of who is most responsible for the success of a picture is resolved in favor of the producer, who counters all skepticism about the project with a rhetorical question exalting the magic of the movies: “You got a better way to live forever?”

ConCerT for n.Y.C. Hale Milgrim Presents Highlights of the Epic Music Event for 9/11

T

here are plenty of music mavens in Santa Barbara, but there’s only one Hale Milgrim. The former president of Capitol Records (and onetime record store employee in Isla Vista) never stops thinking about, or touting to others, the great popular music that he knows and loves so well. On Sunday, September 11, Milgrim will return to the stage at the Lobero Theatre, where he is a familiar figure both from his sponsorship of the long-running Sings Like Hell concerts and for his more recent forays into multimedia expression known as Quips and Clips, with the first in a three-part series devoted to filmed footage of important tribute shows.

Fittingly, given the date, the first of these events will feature highlights from the Concert for New York City. This marathon event took place a little more than a month after the September 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center, and was organized by Sir Paul McCartney, a longtime friend and business associate of Milgrim’s. For five hours on October 20, 2001, the greatest stars in music, film, and television came together in support of the families and friends of first responders who either risked or lost their lives in the rescue attempts made on September 11.

As a longtime New York City resident (19 years) and an eyewitness to the destruction of the Twin Towers (from Seventh Avenue at Bleecker Street), I can attest that there has never been another event in my life quite so devastating to my sense of security or, in its aftermath, so reassuring to my sense of community.

The way New Yorkers bonded to restore the city to equilibrium, to comfort those who lost loved ones, and to honor the brave men and women who went straight to where the trouble was is something that I will never forget. The way my Greenwich Village neighbors came together at that time did a lot to restore our collective faith in humanity. This concert, along with some special, previously unseen footage from the Milgrim archives, captures that inspiring moment brilliantly

Hale Milgrim

and is must-see viewing for anyone who loves music or Manhattan.

The impetus for this screening came when Milgrim’s wife, Anne Milgrim, remarked on the passing of David Bowie last spring that he had made an exceptional contribution to the concert, perhaps the most memorable out of all the star-studded performances. When the date September 11 proved to be open at the Lobero, Milgrim flew into action, combing his extensive library of video and sequencing the clips to tell a story about what that night meant. Musicians to be featured include Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Billy Joel, James Taylor, McCartney, and many more. A portion of the proceeds from the event will go to the Robin Hood Foundation, which sponsored the original event. “I wanted to do something to commemorate the September 11 attacks that was totally legitimate” said Milgrim, and there’s no doubt that seeing these incredible performances with his wise and witty introductions will achieve that goal.

Following this night, which is a presentation of Lobero Live and begins at 6:28 p.m. (no, that’s not a typo), there will be two more such evenings, the Concert for George (Harrison) on November 29, and the Bob Dylan: 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration on January 13, 2017. For tickets and information, visit lobero.com or call 963-0761.

Indie filmmaker Ira Sachs maintains a nice, narrative looseness and embraces measured emotionality while dodging the happy-ending machinery.

nOW SHOWing OBad Moms

(101 mins., R)

Mila Kunis stars as an overworked, under-joyed mom who decides to live a little more freely. The jokes are goodnatured if a little ordinary, and what it lacks in creative edge it makes up for in the pertinence and timeliness of its much-needed comic takedown of domestic inequalities. (RD) Paseo Nuevo Café Society (96 mins., PG-13) Café Society is neither a dazzler nor a dozer in the oeuvre, but it rewards a look-see, especially as a rare example of a period piece in sync with his obsessive ’30s-era musical tastes. It’s also a tale of three in love with Kristen Stewart— Stewart her mid-lifer agent boss (Steve Carell), his New Yorker nephew (Jesse Eisenberg), and Allen’s unabashedly smitten camera.

(JW) Plaza de Oro Don’t Breathe (88 mins., R) Thieving young rapscallions get more than they bargained for when the owner of the home they invade turns out to be a a man with a sixth sense for murder. Though well-made and well-acted, it’s essentially a long chase scene. (RD) Camino Real/Metro 4

A modern-day Western tersely told, this grim-toned tale of two bank-robbing brothers (Chris Pine and Ben Foster) and the sheriff (Jeff Bridges) who tries to stop them is something more than a shoot-’em-up. With a taut and tense violin soundtrack and starkly southwestern cinematography, the film has enough gravitas and emotional ambiguity to give it an air of greatness. (RD)

Morgan (92 mins., R) Director Luke Scott (Ridley’s son) makes his debut with this science-fiction thriller about a laboratory-raised humanoid, Morgan. After she attacks one of the scientists, her fate must be determined by a corporate troubleshooter— let her live or terminate? Kate shooter Mara, Toby Jones, Michelle Yeoh, and Jennifer Jason Leigh star.

Camino Real/Fiesta 5

Camino Real/Paseo Nuevo

ONo manches Frida Jason Bourne (123 mins., PG-13) Welcome back to the gray-green world of Paul Greengrass’s mighty moneymaking Bourne franchise. The plot is as murky as the director’s vision: Even Las Vegas seems like an existential destination, though the car chase through downtown and The Strip livens up the Bourne self-repeating plot mechanism.

(DJP) Metro 4 Kubo and the Two Strings

(100 mins., PG-13)

This Mexican studio’s remake of a German film that is a nicely askew take on Asphalt Jungle and To Sir with Love. An ex-con leaves jail to find that his buried loot has been covered by the new gym at Frida Kahlo High School. There are lots of funny slapstick skits, some politically incorrect, that veer into a plot eventually and a lot of weird lessons learned.

The title translated roughly means WTF, Frida. (DJP) Fairview/Fiesta 5

(101 mins., PG)

The stop-motion-animated feature follows a young villager named Kubo, who is thrown into an adventure when he accidentally summons an ancient and vindictive spirit and must uncover his samurai legacy.

Fairview (2D)/Fiesta 5 (2D and 3D)

The Light Between Oceans

Pete’s Dragon (102 mins., PG) In this Disney remake of the 1977 film by the same name, forest ranger Grace Meacham (Bryce Dallas Howard) happens upon a young boy who has been living in the woods with a dragon named Elliot. When Grace tries to find out who Pete really is, dragon hunters make plans to capture Elliot.

Fiesta 5 (2D)

(133 mins., PG-13)

Equity (100 mins., R) In this financial thriller, Anna Gunn stars as an investment banker who is pulled into a scandal and corruption at the highest levels.

Plaza De Oro Florence Foster Jenkins (110 mins., PG-13)

Real-life New York heiress and socialite Florence Foster Jenkins (1868-1944) dreamed of being an opera star— star despite the fact that she couldn’t carry a tune. Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant star.

Fairview/Paseo Nuevo

HIS

T SATURDAY

This could have been a powerful folk tale. Alicia Vikander plays a lighthouse keeper’s wife on an island called Janus in between two oceans. Immediately after her second miscarriage — shown in sadistic detail— detail a live baby washes up on the shore in a small boat, and the couple decides to keep her. Then the director loses his nerve and ends it as a twitchy forgiveness lesson. It’s a tear-jerking but frustrating film; a better director might have made this great.

(DJP) Paseo Nuevo

Sausage Party (89 mins., R) In this spoof of Pixar films, one sausage sets out to discover the truth about how he came to be.

Metro 4 Suicide Squad (123 mins., PG-13) This is all flab: despite some great work

by Margot Robbie and Will Smith, Suicide Squad feels like a long, discursive intro followed by a prolonged preface, until we realize this gunk is going to be the movie. (DJP)

Camino Real (2D)/Metro 4 (2D)

A Tale of Love and Darkness (95 mins., PG-13)

Natalie Portman directs and stars in this drama about Israeli writer Amos Oz and his days as a child living in Jerusalem during the first years of the formation of Israel.

Plaza de Oro

Café Society

War Dogs (114 mins., R) The true story of two young guys riding prevailing political winds into unlikely arms-dealing success feels a little The Wolf of Wall Street exploitative at times, but it springs an unexpected wallop at the end(DJP) Fiesta 5

a&e | Rob bRezsny’s fRee will astRology week of septembeR 8 ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Two 7-year-old girls showed me three tricks I could use to avoid taking myself too seriously and getting too attached to my dignity. I’m offering these tricks to you just in time for the lettinggo phase of your astrological cycle. Trick #1: Speak in a made-up language for at least 10 minutes. Example: “Groftyp hulbnu wivgeeri proot xud amasterulius.

Quoshibojor frovid zemplissit.” Trick #2: Put a different kind of shoe and sock on each foot and pretend you’re two people stuck in a single body. Give each side of you a unique nickname. Trick #3: Place an unopened bag of barbecue-flavored potato chips on a table, then bash your fist down on it, detonating a loud popping sound and unleashing a spray of crumbs out the ends of the bag. Don’t clean up the mess for at least an hour.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): In accordance with the astrological omens, I suggest you spend less energy dwelling in profane time so you expand your relationship with sacred time. If that’s of interest to you, consider the following definitions. PROFANE TIME happens when you’re engulfed in the daily grind. Swarmed by a relentless flurry of immediate concerns, you are held hostage by the chatter of your monkey mind. Being in SACRED TIME attunes you to the relaxing hum of eternity. It enables you to be in intimate contact with your soul’s deeper agenda, and affords you extra power to transform yourself in harmony with your noble desires and beautiful intentions.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): About 1.7 million years ago, our human ancestors began using primitive hand axes made from rocks. This technology remained in use for over 60,000 generations before anyone invented more sophisticated tools and implements. Science writer Marcus Chown refers to this period as “the million years of boredom.” Its slow pace contrasts sharply with technology’s brisk evolution in the last 140 years.

Homework: Look in the mirror, and tell yourself an edgy but fun truth you’ve never spoken. If you care to share, write Truthrooster@gmail.com.

PLAZA PLAYHOUSE THEATER Since 1928

UPCOMING SHOWS

In 1880, there were no cars, planes, electric lights, telephones, TVs, or Internet. I surmise that you’re leaving your own phase of relatively slow progress, Gemini.

In the coming months, I expect your transformations will progress with increasing speed — starting soon.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Prediction #1: You will attract truckloads of good luck by working to upgrade and refine the way you communicate. Prediction #2: You will tickle the attention of interesting people who could ultimately provide you with clues you will need to thrive in 2017. #3: You will discover secrets of how to articulate complicated feelings and subtle ideas that have been locked inside you. Prediction #4: You’ll begin a vibrant conversation that will continue to evolve for a long time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You know you have a second brain in your gut, right? (If not, read this: bit.ly/secondbrain.)

During the past three weeks, I have been beaming telepathic instructions toward this smart part of you.

Here’s an edited version of the message I’ve been sending: “Cultivate your tenacity, darling. Build up your stamina, sweetheart. Feed your ability to follow through on what you’ve started, beautiful. Be persistent and spunky and gritty, my dear.” Alas, I’m not sure my psychic broadcasts have been as effective as I’d hoped. I think you need further encouragement. So please summon more fortitude and staying power, you gutsy stalwart. Be staunch and dogged and resolute, you stouthearted powerhouse.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Is “Big Bang” the best term we can come up with to reference the beginning of the universe? It sounds violent and messy — like a random, accidental splatter. I would much prefer a term that suggests sublime elegance and playful power — language that would capture the awe and reverence I feel as I contemplate the sacred mystery we are privileged to inhabit. What if we used a different name

for the birth of creation, like the “Primal Billow” or the “Blooming Ha Ha” or the “Majestic Bouquet”? By the way, I recommend that you consider those last three terms as being suitable titles for your own personal life story in the coming weeks. A great awakening and activation are imminent.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The last few weeks have been fraught with rich plot twists, naked dates with destiny, and fertile turning points. I expect there will be further intrigue in the near future. A fierce and tender decision at a crossroads? The unexpected arrival of a hot link to the future? A karmic debt that’s canceled or forgiven? In light of the likelihood that the sweet-andsour, confusing-and-revelatory drama will continue, I encourage you to keep your levels of relaxed intensity turned up high. More than I’ve seen in a long time, you have the magic and the opportunity to transform what needs to be transformed.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the coming days, you will have more than your usual access to help and guidance.

Divine interventions are possible. Special dispensations and charmed coincidences, too. If you don’t believe in fairy dust, magic beans, and lucky potions, maybe you should set that prejudice aside for a while.

Subtle miracles are more likely to bestow their gifts if your reasonable theories don’t get in the way. Here’s an additional tip: Don’t get greedy. Use the openings you’re offered with humility and gratitude.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): When my daughter Zoe was growing up, I wanted her to be familiar with the origins of ordinary stuff that she benefited from. That’s why I took her to small farms where she could observe the growth and harvest of organic food crops. We visited manufacturing facilities where cars, furniture, toys, and kitchen sinks were built. She saw bootmakers creating boots and professional musicians producing songs in recording studios. And much more. I would love it if you would give yourself comparable

Grand and moving.

Beautifully poignant.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): These days, my dear, your eccentric beauty is even more unkempt than usual. I like it. It entertains and charms me. And as for your idiosyncratic intelligence: That, too, is messier and cuter and even more interesting than ever before. I’m inclined to encourage you to milk this unruly streak for all its potential. Maybe it will provoke you to experiment in situations where you’ve been too accepting of the stagnant status quo. And perhaps it will embolden you to look for love and money in more of the right places.

PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): I’m giving you an ultimatum, Pisces: Within the next 144 hours, I demand that you become at least 33 percent happier. Fifty percent would be even better. Somehow you’ve got to figure out what you can do to enhance your sense of well-being and increase your enjoyment of life. I’m sort of joking, but on the other hand I’m completely serious. From my perspective, it’s essential that you feel really good in the coming days. Abundant pleasure is not merely a luxury, but rather a necessity. Do you have any ideas about how to make this happen? Start here: 1. Identify your four most delightful memories, and re-enact them in your imagination. 2. Go see the people whose influences most thoroughly animate your self-love.

SILVIA’S CLEANING

AMENDED NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: GEORGE WASHINGTON CONK, Jr. Case: 16PR00205 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both of GEORGE WASHINGTON CONK Jr. A PETITION FOR PROBATE: has been filed by: in the Superior Court of California, County of SANTA BARBARA THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that GEORGE W. CONK be appointed as personal representatives to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The Independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: on 08/18/2016 AT 9:00 a.m. Dept: 5 SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF SANTA BARBARA, located at 1100 Anacapa Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101. Anacapa Division.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58 (b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
