NASA astronaut Captain Scott Kelly became the first American to spend a year in space, a historic mission that captivated the world as he reported from the International Space Station with live interviews and never-before-seen photos.

A frequent collaborator with Ken Burns, Duncan wrote and produced The National Parks: America’s Best Idea, which won two Emmy awards. He’s the author of 12 books including Seed of the Future: Yosemite and the Evolution of the National Park Idea and served as a director of the National Park Foundation. In 2009, Duncan was named an Honorary Park Ranger, an honor bestowed on fewer than 50 people in history.

Where the mountain lions roam is where Lynn Goodman lives. The wild streak in our amiable advertising rep shimmered through when she convincingly portrayed Fay Wray—complete with friendly gorilla—during All Hallows’ Eve this year, though the buzz in her Ojai neighborhood of big-cat sightings has kept her from roaming the trails in these drought times. The newspaper world is new ground for Lynn, who’s something of an expert from the look of things, having a bachelor’s degree in design and an interiors gig for a home builder in the recent past. Her friends still ask for her help when decorating, and she mentioned a feeling of partiality for Ojai’s pink moments. “It’s when the sunset hits the Topatopa Mountains just right,” she explained, “or the name of a drink.”

news Briefs law & disorder A 34-year-old Goleta woman walked into the Carpinteria sheriff’s substation on 10/29 to report a rape that had allegedly happened two days before, at the U.S.A. gas station on West Carrillo Street in Santa Barbara. Gas station employee Josue Emanuel Torres, 18, saw her in the bathroom using an illegal drug and threatened to have her arrested if she did not have sex with him, she told detectives. Frightened by a possible violation of probation and potential jail, she acquiesced. Torres was arrested and booked into County Jail with bail set at $100,000.

Graffiti vandals put in overtime on the Mesa right before Halloween, using black paint to cause more than $3,600 in damage to homes, stores, and public property. Late at night and into the early morning on 10/28 and 10/29, 11 locations on Meigs Road, Aurora Avenue, and Cliff Drive received unwanted tags of “LEM” and “ALIEN,” apparently from a tagging crew, according to police. Det. Christina Marshall asks that anyone with information on the vandalism email cmarshall@sbpd.com or call 897-2309. Calls can be made anonymously to 897-2386.

At noon on Wednesday, about 500 Santa Barbara High School students protesting President-elect Donald Trump’s election marched from campus to the Sunken Gardens at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse. Organized by the Ethnic Studies Now Coalition student group, protesters waved signs and chanted obscenities against the prospect of presidential rule laced with the racism and misogyny characteristic of Trump’s campaign.

Elsewhere in the district, Dos Pueblos students held a lunchtime rally on campus, and many of them walked to UCSB to join UCSB students in their own protest at Storke Plaza.

San Marcos students gathered peacefully on their own football field. Other student demonstrations took place across the country at the same time.

Gaviota Plan StamPed, SiGned, and delivered Compromises Reached after Seven Years and 130 Meetings

by Keith Hamm roduced by a stakeholder-spearheaded process both tenacious and arduous — and spanning more than seven years and 130 public meetings — the weighty Gaviota Coast Plan landed in final draft form before Santa Barbara County supervisors Tuesday morning. The 240-page document attempted to fill the tall order of providing fair and balanced guidelines and regulations for agriculture, development, and public access across the picturesque frontcountry between western Goleta and Vandenberg Air Force Base, with the intention of supporting farmers and ranchers and preserving their rural landscapes.

With a few final edits by Supervisor Doreen Farr — whose 3rd District encompasses the entirety of the document’s 101,199acre, 1,000-parcel scope — the board voted 3-2 to adopt the plan. In casting his vote against, board chair and 4th District Supervisor Peter Adam called it “inappropriate” to have launched a community-driven effort to oversee agricultural holdings across 77,820 acres. The other dissenter, 5th District Super-

P

visor Steve Lavagnino, wasn’t comfortable with opening a door through which the general public may feel entitled to hike across private property.

“Plus,” he added, “there’s all these people here saying ‘wait’.”

Lavagnino was referring to the majority of four dozen public speakers who urged the board to rewrite the plan to include several key points drafted by stakeholder group Gaviota Coast Planning Advisory Committee (GavPAC) that had never made it into the final draft.

Chief among those points was the desire for a robust incentives program, a quid pro quo by which a landowner could secure permission to build an additional home.

Charles “Kim” Kimbell, GavPAC’s chair since its 2009 inception, said the bulk of the group’s incentives didn’t make it into the plan.

In particular, GavPAC advocated that landowners voluntarily entering into conservation easements ought to be able to build residential second units (RSUs). As written, however, the plan only offers RSUs to landowners who allow public trails across their properties, and that deal is only available to a limited number of parcels already aligned with existing public trail maps. The trail talk also raised concern

city As city officials expand smoking laws to prohibit puffing in more outdoor public areas, they’re asking residents for feedback on how far the ban should reach. The following areas are being considered: beaches, parks, sports fields, Stearns Wharf, the harbor, outdoor restaurant and bar areas, commercial sidewalks, parking lots and structures, entryways to public buildings, community centers, libraries, rec facilities, public events, farmers’ markets, concerts, parades, and outdoor work sites. The new rules would apply to vaping devices, medical marijuana, and non-medical marijuana. Residents are invited to attend a public hearing and discussion on Tuesday, 11/22, noon-2 p.m., at City Hall. Comments can also be sent to smoking@santabarbaraca.gov.

The long line of cars that backs up Las Positas Road at Cliff Drive during rush hour will encounter work beginning next week to build a roundabout at the intersection. Designed to be of minimal size for truck and bus passage, the single-lane circle should decrease congestion once it’s completed, which is anticipated to be before St. Patrick’s Day. The design accommodates pedestrian and bicycle traffic and looks to connect with a future bike lane or path along Cliff Drive. Eight new streetlights, 20 feet tall to reduce glare into nearby homes, will replace the three currently on-site.

coUnty Twenty dollars in cash or check will buy up to two cords of dry, split firewood from Los Padres National Forest on November 12-13. Check-in is 9 a.m.-4 p.m. at the fire station on Figueroa Mountain Road. Los Padres is also hosting a “Fee Free”

Gaviota Cont’d from p. 9 that opening easier access for the general public—and the litter and trampling that often comes with it — would only serve to overcrowd and degrade the very canyons and creeks the plan seeks to protect.

Many environmentalists, while big on trails, said the plan doesn’t go far enough to protect the Gaviota Coast against oil and gas development. As written, the plan urges future implementers to “discourage” such industry. Environmentalists urged the board for an all-out ban, to no avail.

The plan’s approach to endangered-species habitat was another point of contention. As environmentalists claimed it doesn’t go far enough to restrict land-clearing, for example, farmers and ranchers lamented its promotion of expanded mapping of such habitat into now uncharted inland areas. And when endangeredspecies habitat also serves as wildfire fuel, protecting more chaparral will be “a death sentence” for those living nearby, said Andy Caldwell, executive director of the Coalition of Labor, Agriculture & Business.

In respect to Caldwell’s concern and that of speakers representing firefighting agencies, Farr directed staffers to add language that would encourage the development of a wildfire plan. She reassured the crowd that “all txhe things people are concerned about would have to be examined in great detail,” including an expanded incentives program.“I do believe this is a fair and balanced plan.”

Reflecting on the process and its outcome, Guner Tautrim, a GavPAC member whose family has been farming and ranching near Refugio for 150 years, donned his

And wearing his farmer hat, he appreciated that the plan streamlines permitting processes when a landowner wants to test the market waters of a potential side business—from compost and firewood sales to farm stands and tourist-serving farm stays—but he wishes the plan went a bit further.

“A real bummer is that you’d still need to get a conditional-use permit to host agricultural workshops on your property,” referring to events that bring veteran farmers together with upstarts eager for insight.

bureaucratic meeting on Isla Vista reportedly grew heated last week when Behavioral Wellness Director Alice Gleghorn questioned Sheriff Bill Brown’s insistence that his deputies could not carry naloxone until they received the mandated training. Naloxone, the potentially life-saving drug that immediately counteracts the effects of an opioid overdose, has been administered 217 times by paramedics this year in Santa Barbara County. The drug has been around for decades, but in line with state laws adopted to expand access to it, Gleghorn’s department purchased 300 naloxone kits last year to give to laypeople, including those employed in shelters and narcotic treatment programs, and family members of addicts.

About 20 kits went to the Isla Vista Foot Patrol, but deputies have yet to carry the drug, which is dispensed through a nasal spray. Law enforcement is handcuffed by a state law prohibiting officers from performing pre-hospital care without the proper training, according to Brown. That training is scheduled to begin for his entire force in January.

“We are held to a much higher standard of care,” added Jennie Simon, a nurse with county Emergency Medical Services. Simon said the Sheriff’s department contacted her agency to draft a policy for the training, which should take about an hour. “We would be negligent if we didn’t include a training and education component.”

Gleghorn likened the drug to nasal cold medicine. “It is not Pulp Fiction where they plunge a needle into the chest,” she said. While she had not fully researched the law Brown was referring to, she called extensive training “unfathomable.” It should take five to 10 minutes, she said. She noted that law enforcement’s relations with the community have benefited in places where officers carry naloxone.

As for Isla Vista, opioid overdoses occur less frequently than elsewhere, according to paramedic reports. In the past two years, medics have administered naloxone in the City — Kelsey Brugger of Santa Barbara 166 times compared to just five times in I.V.

Several veterans from Santa Barbara met with Rep. Lois Capps on 11/1 to discuss federal services and ways to improve them.

Santa BarBara rentS JumP 20 Percent

Even as Housing Vise Tightens, City Hall Considers Slowing Growth

by Tyler Hayden

W

ith Santa Barbara’s vacancy rate hovering at a historically low 0.5 percent, rent prices — already some of the highest in the country — have spiked another 20 percent. Over the past year, the average Santa Barbara studio rent increased from $1,090 to $1,391, the average one-bedroom jumped from $1,500 to $1,728, and the average two-bedroom went from $2,000 to $2,373, according to what Steve Golis, a partner at Radius Commercial Real Estate & Investments, told the audience at Radius’s annual Economic Forecast gathering last month.

At the same time, South Coast apartment complex sales are sky high. So far this year, 29 multifamily properties have sold, with four in escrow and four more on the market.

Two years ago, the average per-unit price was $270,000. This year, it’s $308,000. Golis cited one apartment complex at 1501 Santa Barbara Street where the per-unit rate hit $462,000.

The Radius forecast report noted: “Rising sales undoubtedly bring rising rents, in addition to rising concerns from tenants and the public in general over what can be done to alleviate the housing crunch.” Also, Radius

reported that tenant-rights groups were discussing rent control to stem the exploding costs.

The city has attempted to create more affordable family and workforce housing through their 2013 experimental Average Unit-size Density (AUD) Incentive Program, which offers developers incentives to build rental housing. Heralded as a success, it allows building more units per acre, with fewer parking spaces per unit. While these allowances make rental projects financially feasible for developers, they also worry neighbors and City Hall that such density will destroy the character of residential neighborhoods.

Santa Barbara City Planner Renee Brooke recently told the Council and Planning Commission that only four units under the AUD have actually been occupied since its launch three years ago. Fifty-five projects totaling 966 units are in the development pipeline, but she stressed that, on average, two out of three proposed units are never constructed.

The program has definitely generated smaller units. According to Brooke, the average unit size approved between 2001 and cont’d page 13 ~

Sansum Reports One Assisted-Death Request

by Nick Welsh t was two years ago this week that 29-yearold Brittany Maynard took a fatal overdose of barbiturates rather than endure the inevitable excruciations accompanying an aggressive variant of brain cancer that had plagued her for six years. What she did, insisted her husband, Dan Diaz, should in no way be regarded as “suicide.” That, he said, was a “pejorative and inflammatory term to evoke fear” deployed by right-to-die-legislation opponents led by the Catholic Church, trying to stop states from adopting measures such as California’s End of Life Option Act, signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown last October. Brown did so only after meeting Maynard, whose struggle to define the terms of her own demise reactivated California’s long-smoldering right-to-die movement.

“It was Brittany’s desire always to live,” Diaz said. “She was in no way suicidal. But she didn’t want to be tortured by her brain tumor to the point she couldn’t see and where the pain medications wouldn’t work.

She wanted to be able to look across the room and say ‘I love you.’ ” Since his wife’s death, Diaz has crisscrossed the country, testifying on behalf of bills similar to California’s. Doing so, he said, has been personally therapeutic. And he had promised his wife he’d work to ensure others with painful terminal illnesses need not leave their home states, as she did, to find relief. Maynard moved from California to Oregon, where physician-assisted death has been legal for nearly 20 years.

Five states currently have right-to-die bills on the books. Seven others are looking into it. When he testifies at statehouses, Diaz said, the opposition is invariably polite and civil. But he regularly finds himself on the receiving end of some very icy stares.

“It’s like I’m Dr. Death,” he said. While the leadership of the Catholic Church is vehemently opposed, he claimed 60 percent of practicing Catholics express support. Diaz was raised Catholic, and the former altar boy still considers himself one. “We don’t believe children of God have to suffer horrifically in order to get into heaven,” he said.

In California, health-care providers are scrambling to work out how to implement the new bill. Participation is strictly voluntary, and to date, Sansum Clinic is the only major player in Santa Barbara County to opt in. Cottage Health and the county’s Public Health Department have opted out.

Only one Sansum patient, so far, has asked for end-of-life assistance. According to California’s legislation, patients must make the request twice, a second opinion must

be rendered by an independent medical professional, and a psychiatric evaluation must be conducted before a prescription can be issued. The new law requires patients to administer the medications — typically 100 Seconal pills — themselves.

Diaz highlighted the safeguards written into California’s law, noting it legally bars physicians from administering the fatal dose. That’s in stark contrast to many European countries, where doctors have been blamed for an increase in overall suicide rates. Diaz dismissed fears that laws like California’s could spark a similar increase as “absolute nonsense.” Last year, 212 Oregonians qualified for final prescriptions; 132 utilized them. Those numbers, he said, are typical of the past 20 years.

California legislators have long struggled with medically assisted-death issues, and Diaz credits his wife’s traumatic experience for generating the critical mass necessary for political passage. (Santa Barbara’s two Democrats in the statehouse—normally unified — split on this issue, with State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson an emphatic supporter and Assemblymember Das Williams opposed.)

“Brittany was young, she was beautiful, she was full of life,” Diaz said. “She got the issue across.” In addition, Diaz credited a seismic shift in demographics. As baby boomers increasingly confront tough endof-life choices, he noted, they will resist the prospect of protracted suffering. He suggested there’s been a cultural shift away from the traditional “doctor knows best” attitude and a growing insistence on collaborative partnerships between patients and health-care professionals.

While medically assisted-death laws may have limited impact, Diaz said such legislation has intensified public awareness on a broader array of end-of-life decisions. Hospice care, palliative treatment, and the need for advanced care directives have been elevated from the fringes of medical conversation to the mainstream.

Dan Diaz will speak Sunday morning at Congregation B’nai B’rith in Santa Barbara. for more information, visit cbbsb.org.

Failure to Communicate

B

ehavioral Wellness czar Alice Gleghorn was taken to task by the county’s Mental Health Commission (MHC) at Tuesday’s county supervisors meeting, for failing to consult on a timely basis over a major spending plan — $20 million a year — to address the needs of Santa Barbara’s mentally ill residents. MHC Chair Jan Winter objected that the annual spending plan has yet to be submitted to the commission, even though the new fiscal year is now one-third complete.

Gleghorn — hired two years ago to bring a department in chronic crisis mode under control — said she was not legally required to submit the plan to the commission but that she had reached out to the broader community. She added that the main details of the plan had been effectively hammered out three years ago and had not changed since then.

Winter opined that key mental-health performance measurements included in the plan were grossly inaccurate; they needed to be changed, she said, but were not, despite protests from individual commissioners. Likewise, she objected that efforts to put the plan on the commission agenda were twice thwarted by the Gleghorn administration.

Gleghorn not only inherited a department in disarray, but critics say she has a brusque personal style. Winter complained that communications between the commission and the Department of Behavioral Wellness have changed “drastically” since Gleghorn took over. Beyond issues of bedside manner, there are substantive differences. The commission strongly backed countywide implementation of Laura’s Law (assisted outpatient treatment), which gives area judges authority to order service-resistant mentally ill individuals into treatment; the board ultimately backed a small pilot program over Gleghorn’s strenuous objection. She argued the department lacked the resources or personnel to embark on a new program while she was expected to carry out serious reforms.

Supervisors Salud Carbajal and Doreen Farr gently but pointedly urged Gleghorn to work harder to communicate better with her commissioners. Supervisor Janet Wolf made sure Gleghorn could defend herself. And Supervisor Peter Adam, always outspokenly conservative, noted the spending plan in question is funded by a special tax levied on the wealthiest Californians.“We should all pray the top one-tenth of one percent of the taxpayers do very well,” he said.

Rent Cont’d from p. 11 2012 was 1,468 square feet. Since the AUD program, that average has dropped to 821 square feet. It has also turned Santa Barbara’s condominium craze — which gave rise to luxury developments such as Chapala One and Alma del Pueblo — completely on its head. From 2001 to 2013, 547 condos were built or approved. Since then, only three have been permitted.

A central goal of the AUD ordinance is to create workforce housing, defined as intended for residents earning 120 to 200 percent of the area median income, which is $77,100 for a family of four. That translates to monthly rent for a single person from $1,619 to $2,698. For a two-person household, workforce rent would be $1,850 to $3,084; a three-person household would pay $2,081 to $3,469.

The Marc development on upper State Street is the only AUD project to announce its rent rates. One- and two-bedroom units will rent for $2,445 to $3,150; three-bedroom units will go for $3,500 and above.

Though these prices have been criticized as too high, they do technically fall within the parameters of city “workforce housing.”

Brooke and her staff recommended a few changes, especially regarding parking spaces— a hot-button topic during early AUD public discussions. Developers said requiring too many spaces would erase any financial incentives, while neighborhood conservationists argued that on-street parking would become a nightmare for current residents.

In a last-minute compromise, councilmembers agreed on one spot per unit,

no matter the bedroom count. “No one in their wildest imagination thought this program would be so successful,” said Principal Transportation Planner Rob Dayton.

Brooke suggested 1.5 parking spaces for two-bedroom units and two spaces for units with three bedrooms or more.

Brooke also proposed that the city’s Historical Landmarks Commission and Architectural Board of Review be given more power to scrutinize AUD projects.

Bill Mahan, a member of the Historic Landmarks Commission, complained, “Some of the proposals don’t have enough open space or parking, even though they conform with AUD guidelines.”

Neighborhood activists speaking during public comment repeatedly predicted that so-called worker-housing units would be eaten up by students and vacationers, that they would deplete water supplies, and that on-street parking would become a battle zone.

Greg Reitz, a member of The Marc’s development team, on the other hand, applauded the city for approving the first big rental project in nearly 40 years. Lisa Plowman with the Coastal Housing Coalition also implored City Hall not to “gut the program.” She believes that despite The Marc’s high rents, Santa Barbara workers will still live there, and once more units are built, cheaper apartments will become available.

Chamber of Commerce CEO Ken Oplinger urged the council not to change course: “If we want to be sustainable, we have to house our own.” n

or Santa Barbara Democrats, Tuesday night’s election results proved to be an excruciatingly mixed message.

The area candidates for whom the party “machine” revved its engines won big and won convincingly.

County Supervisor Salud Carbajal — heir apparent to 18-year Democratic Congressmember Lois Capps — will be representing Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties, and a portion of Ventura County, in Congress next year. Joan Hartmann, similarly backed and embraced by the Democratic establishment, beat out rival Bruce Porter for the all-important 3rd District supervisorial seat, maintaining a Democratically inclined environmental tilt on the Board of Supervisors. State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson cakewalked into another term, and school boardmember Monique Limón — pegged as the next rising star in the left’s political firmament — trounced an opponent for the State Assembly whose name is known only to friends and relatives.

All this was achieved by systematically and exhaustively stripmining the political idealism of young students densely packed into Isla Vista’s overwhelmed and overpriced rental stock. Democrats led get-out-the-vote efforts in Isla Vista, which generated no fewer than 13,080 ballots cast, a new all-time record. Isla Vista voters approved a limited form of self-government by overwhelmingly voting in the creation of a new Community Services District, though landlords kicked up enough of a fuss that the revenue-generating measure needed to fund this entity went down in defeat.

Voters approved $193 million in two new school bond issues that will be used to repair and replace aging buildings and infrastructure.

More critically, the bond issues will provide the $20 million needed to buy Santa Barbara’s downtown armory, placed on the market by the California Army National Guard last year. The armory — on 4.7 acres of property strategically located between Santa Barbara High School and Santa Barbara Junior High — could provide more playing fields, not to mention a new venue for vocational education run

in partnership with City College. The fact that the armory was included in the new bond issues was in itself the product of quick, deft political maneuvering by the likes of Assemblymember Das Williams and Santa Barbara Mayor Helene Schneider. Schneider, who lost to Carbajal in the Democratic primary, also spearheaded the successful effort to tax marijuana sales, whether for medicinal or recreational purposes.

Goleta’s leadership not only has two new councilmembers — Stuart Kasdin and Kyle Richards—but 68 percent of voters opted to elect a mayor starting in the 2018 election, for a term of four years. Kasdin and Richards, who endorsed each other last week, each gained close to a third of the 15,186 votes cast; incumbent Tony Vallejo was about a thousand votes short.

Kasdin, who was heading out to take his car to be serviced Wednesday morning —“That’s one thing about a car appointment; it won’t start without me”— came in first with 4,641 votes. During his campaign, he’d knocked on doors to meet voters and to talk about the pace of development and the need to preserve open space — but then he ran into renters.

“There was one woman who described her life as living like a slave to pay her rent. There was real anguish,” he said. “Affordability matters. We want to preserve the character of Goleta.” Richards said he was excited that he and Kasdin will be able to make a difference in the City Council and the direction of the city:“It’s clear that sustained growth and living within our means are important to Goleta.”

In the race for Goleta’s Water District, boardmembers Lauren Hanson, Bill Rosen, and Rick Merrifield retained their seats. Similarly, at the Goleta Sanitary District, incumbents George Emerson and John Fox, who have held office since the 1990s, and boardmember Sharon Rose held onto their seats.

“WEV’s training gave me the skills I needed to write a successful business plan and become a thriving business owner.”

Len Wood/Santa Maria tiMeS

On a normal night in a normal universe, all this would be cause for deafening jubilation.

But Tuesday night was anything but normal as Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump — whose campaign to “Make America Great Again” has been a nonstop extravaganza of the impossible, the improbable, and the as yet unbelievable — beat out Democrat Hillary Clinton for the White House. In Santa Barbara, Democrats stumbled and shambled across the floor of The Mill, a new high-ceilinged, industrial-hipster win3D: Joan Hartmann, who was favored by the Democratic Party, beat Bruce Porter, supported by ing and dining empoRepublicans, by eight percentage points as of press time. rium on Haley Street, in a collective daze that would not burn off in the morning or even the next 1,200 after that. “Hoo-boy!” exhaled Democratic Party chief Daraka LarimoreHall, eyes bleary with exhaustion and disbelief.“It’s been a great night for local Dems but an unbelievably crappy one for the nation.”

The victory celebration had the air of a wake; the word “bubble” floated around the room from one set of lips to the next, as those attending sought to reconcile the new political reality they’d just created locally with the new national fact of life that is Donald J. Trump backed by a Republican Senate and a Republican Congress. Heads shook.

They shook some more. Santa Barbara voted against Trump; so did California. If California Democrats are living in a “bubble,” noted assemblymember-elect Limón, it’s a pretty big bubble with major ramifications for the national economy and culture.

Congressmember Capps chalked up Trump’s victory to a “loss of hope.” The solution, she suggested, was “education.” Capps Kamala Harris served 10 terms in Congress, and for seven of those, Republicans were in control.

She knows firsthand how hard it is to be a member of the party out of power.“Oh, it’s bad,” she said. Asked if she had any advice for Carbajal — to whom she lent her name, her campaign donor lists, her experienced political operatives, and the totality of a bona fide political machine developed over 22 years — she said: “You have to try to fix things.You have to find someone on the other side of the aisle and find issues where you both have a stake in seeing a positive outcome.”

social media hit pieces. Carbajal’s story gives local rebuttal to Trump’s national narrative about marauding Mexican immigrants against whom “the wall” must be built. Born in Mexico, Carbajal emigrated to the United States at age 5. His father, he said during his Tuesday night victory speech, was a farmworker. His life story, he has said, proves that the immigration system can in fact work. Carbajal was too tired and cautious to explore any deeper meaning of Tuesday night’s results. “I know this sounds silly,” he said, “but I have two months left on my term as county supervisor, and I’m going to do the best job possible.”

Carbajal will be the first Latino to ever represent Santa Barbara in Congress, a historic precedent he and his campaign made a strategic point not to highlight during the campaign. In fact, allies and advisors privately worried Carbajal might experience subterranean voter blowback because of his ethnicity. Carbajal — a middle-of-the-road, let’s-makea-deal Democrat with an uncanny ability to raise funds — has never identified himself as a Latino politician so much as a politician who happens to be Latino.

To the extent he struggles to reconcile his success Tuesday night with the raw nationalism espoused by Trump when it comes to trade and immigration, Carbajal sought refuge in small answers rather than sweeping proclamations.“I’m just focusing on the folks on the Central Coast who elected me and the issues that matter to them.” Likewise, when asked what he thought Trump’s victory might mean for him as a first-term congressmember—or whether there might have been anything lacking about either the Democrats’ message or its messenger, Clinton — an exhausted Carbajal retreated into vows to concentrate on his new district.

Carbajal wound up beating Fareed by 7.6 percent, which is pretty much how many more Democrats are registered in the 24th Congressional District than Republicans. Fareed did not return phone calls or emails requesting comment, nor did his campaign advisor, Christiana Purves. Fareed hosted an election-night party at Benchmark Eatery — with its inviting, open, outdoor patios—at State and Anapamu streets, separate from the Republican get-together at the Endless Summer bar-café populated by party stalwarts, Trump supporters, and even a handful of Tea Party adherents. The Republican gathering, nominally a private event, was open to anyone who showed up. In stark contrast, Fareed’s event was an invitation-only affair. Reporters seeking entry found their way blocked by two very large men who politely and regretfully explained that no one could go inside unless their name was on the list. Fareed sought to embrace the spirit of Trump’s anti-status quo, the-systemis-broken message while not embracing the candidate’s more combative, insulting, and incendiary language.

At the Endless Summer, the mood was surprised and celebratory. A Trump piñata leaned against the patio wall, clutching an American flag in each hand. An organizer explained that Trump supporters were embracing the piñatas the same way they’d taken to wearing

T-shirts emblazoned with Clinton’s characterization of them as “deplorables.” As the night wore on and Trump emerged victorious, the mood grew rowdier and more confrontational.

Jim Worthen, longtime party activist, chanted,“Lock ’er up.”When Fox News correspondent Megyn Kelly—now famous for challenging Trump for his personally insulting remarks regarding the appearances of women — came on-screen, Worthen chanted, “Fire her.”

Dale Francisco, former Santa Barbara city councilmember and now head of the area Republican Party, expressed optimistic caution about Trump’s election, noting his lack of actual governing experience.“We had Governor Schwarzenegger in California, and he wasn’t very effective,” Francisco said.“There are many unknowns with Trump, but I prefer those to the knowns of Hillary. I hope it plays out well.”

Democratic Party leader Larimore-Hall, a California delegate who supported Bernie Sanders in the primary, was more expansive in his reaction. “We are living in a bubble,” he declared. “There is racism driving this boat, for sure, but you also have to see that the solution to it can’t be calling them [Trump supporters] ‘deplorable’ and expecting all the urbanite women and people of color to save us. Nope — you have to give them something to vote for.

What the hell does our party give to an out-of-work factory worker in Ohio? We sent their jobs overseas. And we told them we wouldn’t.” Larimore-Hall said Clinton’s free-trade, openborder policies simply did not jibe with the economic realities experienced by rust-belt voters.

“It’s really hard to run someone so intimately tied to Wall Street and so unpopular in so many ways and say, ‘Overcome your sexism and your racism.’We give IT’S SIMPLE... WE GUARANTEE YOU them nothing.”

Throughout the campaign, THE ABSOLUTE LOWEST PRICE... FOREVER. Trump relentlessly harpooned YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO TO OTHER FURNITURE STORES the “political correctness” of his opponents. To the extent that FOR BETTER DEALS. NO GIMMICKS... NO TRICKS... attack connected with voters, JUST THE BEST GUARANTEE ANYWHERE. Sen. Jackson was inclined to take a second look.“If politically correct means that we try to treat people with dignity and respect, then that’s a good thing,” she said. “Anger and fear are very strong and powerful emotions that keep people from thinking. That’s my fear. People are making decisions based Open upon emotion rather than logic and reason.”

Cynthia Marsh Lloyd-Butler 06/16/27-10/29/16

Cynthia Marsh Lloyd-Butler a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and friend passed away on October 29, 2016, peacefully, at home with her husband, James, by her side, and her daughter, son, grandchildren and caregivers and dependents nearby.

Born Cynthia Dolores Frances Marsh on June 16, 1927, she was the daughter of Herminia Julia Oreña Marsh of Los Alamos and Los Angeles, and John Thomas Marsh of London. Cynthia’s early years were spent with her mother and father at Rancho La Lomita in Los Alamos, one of the sub tracts of Rancho Elena that had been owned by her paternal great-grandfather, Gaspar Oreña, and later, her grandfather Darío Oreña. After some years, her father, John, returned to his position in the British Merchant Navy, and he kept in constant contact with Cynthia by post. He sent her countless letters, books, etchings, and antiques from all over the world, which she cherished throughout her life. “Johnny” as she referred to her father, was assumed lost on a British Merchant Naval vessel in the surprise attack of Sydney Harbor in 1942, after which letters to him were returned “person not found.” His loss influenced her deeply. Cynthia cherished her father’s memory through her relationship with her father’s brother George, and later with her connections to her paternal cousins that she maintained throughout her life.

Upon meeting Doris Marsh, her cousin and doppelgänger, for the first time in the early 1950s, Cynthia looked at her and exclaimed, “Me… but blond!” and immediately erupted into hugs and kisses.

After her early years with her mother and father at La Lomita, Cynthia moved with her mother to Los Angeles, where she lived in the family home of her grandparents Herminia Ortiz and Darío Oreña at 202 Van Ness Avenue. She was schooled at St. Brendan School, Los Angeles, and continued to spend summers at Rancho La Lomita with her grandparents, cousins and aunts.

By no means a cowgirl as were many of her cousins, Cynthia was neither a fan of horses, nor any livestock for that matter, owing in part to a fabled story where one of the ranch goats butted her into a pan of water.

After grade school in Los Angeles, Cynthia then graduated from Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy in La Canada 1945. At Flintridge, she developed her love for music and 22

opera and often wistfully confessed she always dreamed to be an opera singer, but was deprived of a singing voice and a bit dismayed when friends suggested she mouth and not sing the words. Never deterred, and always determined, Cynthia went on to USC, where she obtained a degree in education in 1949 and put her degree to work teaching 2nd and 3rd grade for 8 years. It was during these years that her sense of adventure, which she shared with both her mother and father, took hold. She loved to travel and was endlessly curious. One of her first adventures was a trip with her mother covering a vast portion of the 1,337-mile Alaska Highway which had just been completed in 1945, with a small group of intrepid travelers in a tour bus with no springs. In 1955, she traveled to Japan, where she stayed for over a year, teaching school to children of American Dependents stationed in Tokyo. The trip to Japan was a three week voyage across the Pacific on a spartan Naval Vessel where she proudly became an expert at shuffle board. Upon arrival in post-war Tokyo, she was billeted for a year in an apartment block in Marunouchi, which still stands and which her daughter and son, Camilla and Tomás, visited while retracing her path in Japan last autumn.

Of far greater importance to Cynthia than adventure, travel and career, were her husband, her family and the sense of place and stability she created for her family in her home and garden. That chapter of her life began soon after her year abroad, for soon after returning to California she was introduced to her future husband, James Lloyd-Butler, at a picnic organized by James’s aunt Josephine Edwards near the bridge over the Santa Ynez River. Cynthia and James Lloyd-Butler were married on February 9, 1957, at the Santa Barbara Mission, the site of many ceremonies and celebrations of her California ancestors, especially the Oreña family.

Cynthia and Jim began their married life in their home on The Broome Ranch, where James continued his agricultural career as the superintendent of row crops. It was in a cottage, near the Revlon Slough, that Cynthia began her life long work of raising and nurturing Camilla and Tomás. Eventually Cynthia and her family moved to her beloved home on “C” street where she took great pleasure in her garden and her home and where she said she never felt alone since she could always see the entire town drive by through her kitchen window. At her home in Oxnard, Cynthia perfected the art of motherhood. Long before “quality time” and virtual mothering, Cynthia was always home for her children. She was there to meet them when they came home from school, to help with homework, treat Camilla’s cheerleading injuries, or fix a “pilón” (snack). She could turn the most humble ingredients into delicious dinners, and nearly went into the cookie business supplying Tomás and most of his boarding school classmates while away at school.

November 10, 2016

In her off time from motherhood, Cynthia became active in many organizations and devoted time to many charities, including the National Charity League and the Alumnae of the Pi Beta Phi. The next chapter of her life brought Cynthia back to the ranch, this time to Rancho Santa Clara del Norte, where she moved with her husband and family into the LloydButler family home after James took over the management of his family’s property in 1982. Upon moving to The Ranch, Cynthia enabled the family home to evolve to reflect her own love for antique furniture and art, as well as of the long histories of both her family and that of her husband. Cynthia also updated the garden with influences from their travels, adding a white garden patterned after one she and her husband had admired at Sissinghurst in Kent.

Cynthia also returned to teaching where she worked as a teacher’s aide in the El Rio school district for several years. Now, an accomplished wife and mother, she turned her attention to grandmothering. She took great interest in each of her four grandsons’ nurturing, education and development. When asked to encapsulate her memory into just one word, the four boys in rank order, remember: her laugh, her love, her cooking and her dedication. Cynthia was able to drag her ranch-bound husband off on a few trips, where, like both her father and mother who loved exploring the world, she returned with objects and remembrances her children and grandchildren will never forget: a collection of minute sea shells from Hawaii, a lace baptismal gown from Madrid for her grandchildren and a collection of carved statues of the saints and of the Virgin Mary from Spain, Mexico, Italy and France.

Throughout her life, Cynthia was a devoted Catholic, and, despite a long struggle with dementia, almost never missed Sunday Mass. Cynthia’s faith was complete in every respect.

It centered on the teachings of the Catholic Church, the ritual of weekly and often daily mass, the power of prayer and the example and effort of charitable works outside the Church.

She continued her work outside the church through her work with Ventura County Catholic Charities — where she was a member of the Advisory Committee for many years — the Assistance League, and Las Patronas. She never forgot her prayers; in fact, her last words were the Hail Mary which she prayed in Spanish with her husband and Lupe, her longtime caregiver.

Cynthia is survived by her husband of 59 years, James Lloyd-Butler.

She is also survived by her daughter, Camilla Ross Lloyd-Butler Shafer; Camilla’s husband, Arthur Hammel Shafer and by their children, James Shafer and Weiler Worthington Shafer. She is further survived by her son, Tomás Oreña Lloyd-Butler, and by his two sons, Ross Oreña Lloyd-Butler and John Forderer Lloyd-Butler.

Brooke E. Sawyer Jr. 03/05/25-09/30/16

Brooke Sawyer died September 30th at home at Valle Verde, Santa Barbara. He was 91 years old.

The son of Brooke E. Sawyer, Sr., and Mabel Gerhard Edwards, Brooke was born in Redlands and spent his early years living on the family farm near Saticoy. He attended The Thacher School in Ojai and the University of California at Berkeley, where he was a member of the Chi Phi fraternity; earned his bachelor’s degree in soil science; and met Barbara, his wife of 66 years.

Following graduation from Cal, Brooke began married life on the family citrus and avocado ranch in Santa Paula, and worked in various capacities for The Samuel Edwards Associates. The family moved to Davis in 1958, where Brooke earned his master’s degree in irrigation and water science at UCD, and then a doctorate in education at Stanford University. His career encompassed farming and college administration, including at California State University Sacramento, the California State University Moss Landing Marine Labs, and Pomona College in Claremont.

He was an avid supporter of the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum and the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History and its Sea Center, working in many capacities as a volunteer for both. He was a dedicated Rotarian, and a member of Rotary Clubs that included Santa Paula, Sacramento East, Claremont, Montecito and Santa Barbara Sunrise. He was a faithful and active member of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Santa Paula, St. Martin’s in Davis, St. Ambrose in Claremont, and All Saints by the Sea in Montecito.

dan Secord 1936–2016

An Orphan Who Delivered 6,000 Babies

M

By J e n n y S e c o r d y father, Dr. Dan Secord, had many

qualities: dynamic, passionate, brilliant, and opinionated but empathetic. He was a connector of people.

He loved helping others and being asked to solve problems. His personality was so unique—not just how clever and bright he was intellectually but also his tone and style. He was decisive, sincere, with a dark wit and gracious generosity of spirit. He made me proud to be his daughter.

My dad had an air about him: a confidence, a bit of swagger that comes with being self-possessed and multitalented. He courageously forged a path for himself and for the people whose lives he touched, delighting in conversation about his passions: medicine, bicycles, politics, motorcycles, cooking, sailing, flying, coffee, golden retrievers, and people. He loved engaging with the social aspects of all of those passions and especially enjoyed being a part of the communities that sprang from each. These groups are where he built such a strong family of friends.

Dan was born in a Salvation Army orphanage in 1936, in Kansas City, Missouri. His birth mother, Shirley Carter, was unwed, and his biological father, Orville Peatmeyer, was a married man who may never have known he existed. He was adopted after nine months in the orphanage by Earl Secord, a Methodist minister, and his wife, Abbey Secord. Growing up, he felt out of place and misunderstood, and he struggled in school. He was a self-described “juvenile delinquent” who ran away from home at the age of 15.

When Dan entered the U.S. Army Medical Corps in 1955, he said it was there that with structure and guidance he first learned he was smart and “learned to love learning.” He loved it so much he decided he never wanted to stop, and he nurtured a lifelong passion to remain curious and truly investigate things he cared about.

My father loved Santa Barbara with all his heart.

Every time we would travel the world, of practically any place we went, he would say, “This is nice, but it’s not Santa Barbara. I’m ready to go home.” He was a loyal homebody, so much so that he ran for City Council when he retired, becoming known as a factual and practical councilor. He also served his city as a planning commissioner and harbor commissioner, ran twice for county supervisor, and was appointed to the California Coastal Commission.

He also loved his routines: lunch at the Yacht Club, Saturday-morning group bicycle meet-ups, and stay-

ing physically active. There was always action to take — go running, ride a bike, sail a boat, fly a plane. So much activity. He didn’t like to sit still unless he was reading, which he did quite often.

My father liked to fondly declare,“Jennifer, you and I share a brain,” and we often did. He was sometimes hard to crack since he still felt like a misunderstood outsider, longing to be known and accepted, as I often have. It can be hard to convey to others your true self, and it is a comfort when you have someone whom you know really sees and understands you in this world.

Dan self-diagnosed his bladder cancer in March of this year. And even though he had successful bladderremoval surgery as part of his treatment, his body simply couldn’t recover from this very invasive procedure. The many complications made his last few weeks a big challenge, and in the end, this man who always gave 110 percent knew when to call it.

He was so relieved to be home. I think he began the process of letting go once he knew he was back in his favorite city and his familiar hospital, a place where he practiced as an obstetrics and gynecology doctor for so many years and delivered thousands of babies.

His colleagues and friends visited frequently, but he responded less and less each day, until his last.

In the hours before his death, I sat with him and talked about what a wonderful day he’d just had, surrounded by so many loving visitors: a harpist, a ukulele player, a soloist singing “Amazing Grace,” and finally the Santa Barbara Choral Society, who came to sing three beautiful songs for him as the sun set.

I know he felt everyone there, I know he heard the music and the words of love around him, and I think they allowed him to let go.

Our family is grateful for his friends and their support during Dad’s many years in this wonderful community. He is survived by his devoted wife of 47 years, Mary Secord; his children, Cindy Tomkinson, Richard Secord, Stephanie Curtis, Lara Mislang, and Jennifer Secord; and 10 grandchildren: Mark, Adrianne, Courtney, Travis, Shane, Miles, Danika, Devo, Twyla, and Tate.

A memorial service will be held at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, November 12, at First Presbyterian Church at 21 East Constance Avenue. A reception, with an open mike for “telling Dr. Dan stories,” will immediately follow at the Santa Barbara Yacht Club. Please join us in celebrating his life. Donations in his name can be made to the Santa Barbara Choral Society, Santa Barbara Middle School, or Cancer Center of Santa Barbara. n

Nancy was born to Lino and Grace Mautino on April 27, 1946. She was born at St. Francis Hospital and spent her entire life in her beloved Santa Barbara. She passed away of natural causes on October 23, 2016.

Nancy attended local schools and graduated from Santa Barbara High School in 1964. She worked briefly as a dental assistant before being employed by General Telephone Company. She retired from GTE after 30 years. While she worked as a long-distance operator at GTE she made many lifelong friends. She also had precious friendships with many of her classmates from the schools she attended, as well as neighbors she had while residing on Oak Park Lane and El Sueno Road. Thanks go out to you from the family for your love and friendship.

Nancy is pre-deceased by her parents, her brother-in-law, Fred Dowhower, and her nephew Patrick Dowhower. She is survived her sister, Carol Dowhower and her sons Ryan (Amy) and their six children, Andy (Beth) and their two sons. She is also survived by her sister, Marilyn Agap-

Peacefully Ann passed away September 29, 2016 with her beloved children by her side. Ann was born August 21, 1932, in Cleveland, Ohio, to Maxwell H. Tielke and Virginia B. Tielke. Growing up in Cleveland, Ann graduated from Hathaway Brown and furthered her education at Marjorie Webster College in Washington D.C. She married James D. Ix, a Korean veteran, and they had two children, Sharon Ix and James Ix. In 1959 Ann and Jim settled their family in Santa Barbara, California. After being widowed for many years, Ann married Joseph Vokoun, a longtime friend. They spent many happy years together until his death in 1998. In her later years, Ann was blessed again by another gentleman, Philip Ruggeiro. They, too, had a very special relationship. She is survived by her two children, two granddaughters, Claire Grissom (Paul) and Margaux Gebers, two great-grandchildren, Benjamin and Alice Grissom and her sister, Marylou Falzone.

Ann will long be remembered for her positive attitude toward her friends, family and life. A celebration of Ann’s life will be held November 19, 2016.

It’s Over! Hooray!

Monday, the day before the election. So at this writing, I don’t know who won. If The Donald lost, give your Trump piñatas a last whack or save them for four (no, no, not again!) years.

If Hillary Clinton won, she made Russian czar Vladimir Putin, Trump’s pal, the next biggest loser of the year. No nights in the Lincoln Bedroom for him. (They say it’s haunted.)

If Trump won, the biggest winners (losers?) will be all those non-college-educated white men who helped elect him. How did that Pink Floyd song go: “We don’t need no education.”

In honor of all those who didn’t bother to vote, I point out that the Day of the Dead film Macario will be shown at the Granada Theatre on Sunday at 3 p.m. It’s a classic 1960 supernatural film about a poor man who makes a deal with La Muerte (death).

The Washington Post says President Barack Obama made D.C. “look cool.” Asked the Post: Will Clinton or Trump “make it boring again?”

I still say a tour of the capital is the best vacation you’ll ever have. After touring the White House and Capitol building, Lincoln Memorial, and the rest of the Mall stars, have dinner at the in-spot Capital Grille restaurant and a drink at the Round Robin bar in the swank Willard Hotel. Listen to the talk.

Now that the election’s over, we can get

back to real life and not have to consult numbers guru Nate Silver every hour on the hour or hear more from loudmouth nutcase Rudy Giuliani. (They elected this guy mayor of New York City?)

Not that we’ve heard the last of Trump if he lost. He’ll still be fulminating nightly on his personal TV campaign station, Fox News.

It was a presidential campaign like no other — the school braggart against the smart girl sitting quietly in study hall.

The Supreme Court is still deadlocked with one justice short at eight and the Republicans on strike, blocking a new appointment. The ninth, Antonin Scalia, died earlier this year at

THE PHENOMENON & THE GIFT

marian kamensky, slovakia

WINNERS AND LOSERS: My deadline was

age 79. With three justices getting up there in years — Ruth Bader Ginsburg at 83, Anthony Kennedy at 80, and Stephen Breyer at 78 — we could theoretically get down to five if the Grim Reaper acts fast. To be confirmed, a new justice must be approved by a simple majority of the Senate — at least 51 votes. Good luck with that.

“In late August, Hillary Clinton announced that she would soon give a speech in Reno, Nevada, linking Donald Trump to what has become known as the alt-right,” the New Yorker reported last week. The alt-right, the magazine said, is “a loose online affiliation of white nationalists, neo-monarchists, mascu-

linists, conspiracists, belligerent nihilists and social-media trolls.”

With that kind of backing, how could he lose? Sociopaths need representation, too, don’t they?

Even if Trump is flushed down the drain like dirty toilet water, we still won’t have heard the last of him. He’ll just keep opening casino hotels and bankrupting them.

One good thing about this presidential campaign: It dramatically pointed out the urgent need to reform our democracy. Millions of middle-class Americans feel poor in a land of plenty, left out of the American dream, forgotten in a celebrity-ridden society where a relative few relish unbelievable wealth while masses of hardworking people struggle.

How could Trump, for all his thunderous craziness and forked-lightning danger, attract millions of voters? What will happen when a smoother operator, a real demagogue, arrives on the scene avoiding Trump’s mistakes but harboring the power to warp our precious democracy beyond belief?

The Greeks invented democracy. In 507 bce the Athenian leader Cleisthenes introduced reforms he called demokratia or “rule by the people.” Alas, Athenian democracy would only survive for about two centuries.

We can beat that, can’t we?

De la Vina Green Dream

T

he debates over AUD (Average Unit-size Density [Incentive] Program) and urban density in general are certainly necessary and urgent, but there are many perspectives from which to view any particular example of housing in Santa Barbara. What the press recently called a “Nightmare on De la Vina Street” [independent.com/DLVnightmare] could also be called “Dreaming Green in Santa Barbara.”

When I found out about the “green,” or sustainable, features of the three apartment units at Hawkes Court, I decided to take my Green Building class on a tour.

We were pleasantly surprised at what we saw: wholehouse ventilation (necessary for healthy air quality in tighter, energy-efficient homes), tight building shell (to conserve energy and reduce utility bills), on-demand water heating, and participation in the S.B. Built Green program.

Another phenomenon our class has studied that figures into the urban-density issue is the new interest in small, compact, efficient homes. The units on De la Vina are around 800 square feet each. This relatively small size allows for more urban density, keeps price of construction down, keeps rent or mortgage [costs] down, and makes space heating almost unnecessary.

Santa Barbara is full of old housing stock that is unsafe or unhealthy or leaky or expensive to cool or heat. These units will be replaced over time, and gradually replacing them with smaller, well-built (earthquake-safer), more efficient (cheaper to operate), and more comfortable units seems a worthwhile option to pursue. And, of course, we must make sure, as a community, that this transition is not unreasonably hard on the residents involved.

— Patrick Foster, chair, Construction Technology Department, SBCC

Tarnished Ortega Park

From my business near Ortega Park, I have seen this Eastside jewel tarnished by a dangerous group of 10-20 longtime residents and transients who misuse its recreational purpose. They yell, fight, intimidate, abuse alcohol, deal drugs, vandalize, and steal.

letters I walk the park every day with my dog and am acquainted with some of these folks, whom I consider my friends. When they’re intoxicated, they’re part of the problem. These folks are not exempt from obeying the laws of respect for others, safety, and decency.

At a recent meeting, a neighbor announced she is moving due to the problems. What a shame to let more businesses leave. Several business owners and nonprofit leaders said they encourage their kids to avoid the park altogether. One said parents will drive their children from Santa Barbara Junior High to dance classes — a distance of less than 1,000 feet!

Redirecting youth away from Ortega Park, locking the bathrooms, removing picnic tables, and closing the park at sundown waves the white flag of surrender.

They simply relocate the problem and waste a valuable resource.

First District Councilmember Jason Dominguez is leading an effort to reduce the negative impacts by shining a light on unlawful acts and to expand the park’s intended use. I’m ready to lend my support alongside law enforcement, city parks staff, and volun— Wally Hofmann, S.B. teers.

Of all the species of spiders, only a small percentage of them are dubbed House spiders. House spiders have adapted to living in homes since the roman century. Roughly 43,500 species of spiders are known to man around the world. Myth is told that humans swallow an average of 6-8 spiders a year while sleeping. Only half the amount of spiders known to man catches prey by the means of webs, others actively hunt for their prey.

RACING FOR REASONS: Though a mere 12 years old, Jacob Mansbach is a veteran triathlete and donates more of his time and money to the Foodbank than most people eight times his age.

Join Jacob for the foodbank f 7 th Grader runs triathlons, raises hunGer awareness, a hosts Festival this saturday

LIFE WITH LOW VISION: The author’s first visit to the Braille Institute opened her eyes to a more active life.

E

xercise and healthy eating go hand in hand, but combining triathlons and food banks take it to a whole new level. That’s the young life of 12-year-old Jacob Mansbach, an extremely active 7th grader at Santa Barbara Middle School who has biked, swum, and run in triathlons for the past five years while raising money and awareness for the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County.

It started in 2012 when Jacob, then 8 years old, and his dad, Mike, decided to do the Santa Barbara Triathlon together for fun. But it became much more meaningful once his mom, Jennifer, took Jacob to the Foodbank, the beneficiary of that year’s race. “It just clicked for him,” she said. “When you go and see the food and how much needs to be sorted and packaged … it meant a lot.”

Jacob had a great time sorting beans that first day but also learned about the needs of others. “When you or I feel hungry, we can just go and get food,” said Jacob.“A lot of [these kids] can’t go and have that; they don’t have a choice.

One in five kids lives in hunger in Santa Barbara. It was originally at one in four, so it’s gotten better. I’d like to think it was me,” he added with a smile, “but I doubt it.”

Jacob raised $4,510.56 in his first race — the largest fundraiser for that year’s triathlon, he proudly reports — and in 2013, he formed the Join Jacob team, recruiting other kids to the cause. “I find triathlons so fun, and I don’t know why everyone doesn’t like them,” said Jacob. “Why wouldn’t anyone want to do it?”

Originally just Jacob, his dad, and his brother, Joseph, the team now includes friends and their families — the largest team thus far, with 16 people.

So far, they’ve raised more than $70,000, and each member volunteers at the Foodbank as part of the training to make that link between the cause and their community.

Three years ago, Jacob wanted even more kids to help at the Foodbank, which is primarily run by

I adult volunteers, so he created Saturday Family Day. Once a month, any interested parents and their children can sort and package the food. “Our focus is kids,” said Jacob,“kids being able to help others.” Since then, more than 20,000 children have volunteered, according to his mom.

This Saturday, November 12, the Mansbach family is putting on a Thanksgiving food drive and volunteer festival at the Foodbank’s warehouse. The event will include music by Spencer the Gardener (expect “The Gobble Song” and other food-friendly ditties), classes from the Apples to Zucchini Cooking School, and more. They’re seeking donations of frozen turkeys and chickens, rice, low-sugar canned fruit, low-sodium veggies, stuffing, canned pumpkins and cranberries, beans, nut butters, oatmeal, and cereals.

But Jacob’s work remains unfinished. “I know that it’s unrealistic, but I want [Family Day] every Saturday,” said Jacob. “I want people to not depend on us to go to the Foodbank and volunteer. I really love doing it. I want it to be more.”

Jacob and Spencer’s Saturday Family Day Food Drive & Festival is Saturday, November 12, 9:30 a.m.-noon, at Foodbank of S.B. County (4454 Hollister Ave.). See foodbanksbc.org or call 967-5741.

remember the day I was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa. It was nine years ago, and I thought that my life was over. This was it; I was going blind, and I was just 34 years old.

You might think that vision loss is something that a person can’t miss. But truthfully, it started when I noticed little changes, like bumping into things at work that I didn’t see. I began having more and more trouble driving at night and trouble navigating daily tasks. I was in denial— denial until one day when I actually found myself driving off the road. I knew then that I was in trouble.

Although my central vision remained, I had to give up things that made me feel independent, such as driving. Without full sight, I felt isolated. I wasn’t aware of any low-vision resources in Florida, and if there were any they were driving-distance away— away how was I supposed to get there?

After my father’s health began to decline, we moved from Florida to Santa Barbara for the better air quality. I started looking online for ways to get involved in my new community and stumbled upon Braille Institute Santa Barbara. I decided to visit and discovered instead that they were the perfect match to help me. I had no idea that most of the people they help are dealing with low vision due to conditions like mine. I thought they only helped people who had no sight at all.

When I walked through the doors at Braille Institute, the warm welcome I received and the conversations that I had with staff helped me realize my life was not over. I just needed to learn new ways to do the things I loved. After taking a tour of their campus, I signed up for some classes.

Braille Institute S.B. has so much to offer, and it has helped reawaken passions I thought I would not get to enjoy again due to my vision loss. I’ve taken cooking classes with Leslie that have helped build my confidence in the kitchen, a book study class with Lillian where I discovered the joys of audiobooks, and classes in disaster preparation with Marylee and self-defense with Terri that all help me navigate my journey as someone with low vision.

There is something magical about Braille Institute — it’s the one place where I feel safe, comfortable, and strong. Adjusting to life with sight loss can be difficult, but Braille Institute has empowered me to live an active life in a community that I love.

It’s the same thing with Musk. He decided he wanted to what other space explorers have referred to as the “orbital think there’s value in seeing what’s over that next horizon. go to Mars, and his original idea was to buy perspective,” a soul-squeezing view of a rocket, but then he realized that the cost to humankind’s home with all its natuaccess orbit was so expensive that the only ral beauty and man-made flaws.

kind of consider it my baby,” admits Katie Belanger of her bright new café, The Honey B, which is located on the second story of Antioch University in downtown Santa Barbara.

Decorated with her own artwork, potted succulents, and hand-painted chalkboard menus and featuring all-original menu items, The Honey B is very much the product of an attentive mother.

“My heart and pride are in it,” Belanger says of each of t tasty and nutritious Fare the details that make the now Served on second story company’s slogan, “a little kitchen with a lot of love,” ring true.

Perched above the

by Rebecca Horrigan corner of Anacapa and Cota streets amid ocean and mountain views, The Honey B offers a lot of luxury at a small price. “You can eat a very big meal for under $10,” said Belanger, whose food is also incredibly tasty, nutritious, and versatile.

A native Chicagoan who moved to California in 2013, she describes her menu of waffle sandwiches (“handhelds”), salads, bowls, and desserts as “Midwest meets West Coast,” combining the traditional comfort foods of her hometown with lighter, California cuisine.

The Boat handheld, for instance, steers toward the comfort side with an irresistible combination of Katie Belanger crispy bacon, caramelized onions, arugula, tomato, and chipotle ranch on a warm and fresh cheddar-and-chive waffle.

Those with special diets can also partake wholeheartedly, as 60-70 percent of the menu is vegan, and gluten-free bread is always an option.

A special bonus is being around the corner from the Saturday farmers’ market. “I’m a local business; they’re local farmers,” she said.

“It just doesn’t make sense not to support your own kind.” This steady supply of fresh produce inspires her rotating menu of seasonal salads, including Belanger’s personal favorite: the Marvelous Miso, featuring shiitake mushrooms, rice noodles, kale, edamame, carrot, and handmade miso-garlic dressing.

For those seeking something hearty, the Buddha bowls are ideal.

I loved the Curry Bowl, with spiced yams, maple-roasted chickpeas, kale, avocado, cucumber, green onion, and brown rice, tossed in a coconut-curry dressing.“It’s a cross between a salad and a rice bowl,” said Belanger. “It’s a super salad.”

Belanger first chased her culinary California dreams from Chicago to Ventura. Buoyed with confidence and funds from winning the reality television show On the Menu on TNT, she started her vegan bakery, Cinnies, and subsequently expanded into The Honey B, first selling through Isabella Gourmet Foods on Figueroa Street and then opening her café in October.“Everything I’ve made and done for this restaurant, I’ve worked incredibly hard for,” she said. With hopes to feature live music, sell alcohol, and continue to support community organizations, the buzz at The Honey B is already strong, and its sweetness is irresistible.

he Gobble Song” is a Thanksgiving tradition by Santa Barbara band Spencer the Gardener, but The Restaurant Guy has his own seasonal standard. Each November, my inbox is swamped with the same question: Which restaurants serve a traditional turkey meal on Thanksgiving Day? So, last week The Restaurant Kid and I made a hundred phone calls to find the answer for you — well, I did the work while my son climbed on me like a jungle gym.

Restaurants joining the list for the first time include Angel Oak, Convivo, High Sierra Grill & Bar, and Oveja Blanca. Make reservations early because many places sell out in advance. For the 10th year in a row, I present to you a list of restaurants offering Thanksgiving on Thursday, November 24:

Petros in Los Olivos, 686-5455 Plow & Angel at San Ysidro Ranch, 565-1720 Root 246, 686-8681 Roy, 966-5636 Sage & Onion (takeout only, seven days’ notice required), 845-4134 Santa Barbara Brewing Company, 730-1040 Shoals Restaurant at Cliff House Inn, 652-1381 Sly’ y’s (takeout only, at least 10 days’ notice required), 684-6666 Stella ella Mare’s (sold out, reserve six-eight weeks in advance), 969-6705 Stonehouse at San Ysidro Ranch, 565-1724 Tee-Off Restaurant, 687-1616 The Black Sheep, 965-1113 Trattoria Mollie, 565-9381 Treehouse Restaurant, 687-2426 Willows at Chumash Casino, 686-0855 Wine Cask, 966-9463 SPEAKING OF THE GOBBLE SONG: Spencer

RALPHS ON DE LA VINA CLOSES: Ralphs

market at 2840 De la Vina Street has closed its doors for good. Reader Gerald tells me that Ralphs will be replaced by Grocery Outlet Bargain Market, and there is a proposal for a new façade for the shopping center.

LITTLE KITCHEN DOES DINNER: The Little

Kitchen at 17 West Ortega Street is now open for dinner. Owner Grace Austin’s modern comfortfood favorites are chicken tikka masala ($12.50); shepherd’s pie in a cast iron skillet ($14.50); Mediterranean mezze platter with grilled vegetables, warm herbed goat cheese, olives, hummus, and naan ($9.95); shrimp and grits ($15.50); and Grace’s family recipe for “real deal” Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes, lingonberries, and pickled cucumber slices ($14.50). Entrée salads with organic greens are $10.25. Two favorite desserts are the warm chocolate chip cookie in a skillet with McConnell’s vanilla ice cream and the French Toast Bites served à la mode with a caramel sauce. The Little Kitchen is open for lunch Tuesday-Saturday, dinner nightly, and late night Friday-Sunday. They are closed Mondays.

DAVE’S DOGS: Reader Christine was walk-

ing on Hollister Avenue in Old Town Goleta and saw a hot dog stand near the stereo shop on the corner of Hollister and Magnolia but didn’t stop to get details. When I posted this on my blog, reader Nancy replied: “That is Dave’s Dogs! Very good and creative hot dogs. I highly recommend them.” Follow where Dave will be next at facebook.com/davesdogs805 and see photos of his dogs at instagram.com/davesdogs805.

I never knew that a hot dog could be so fancy.

It’s amazing.

VocAlosity shoWcases harmony courtesy

e are all of us singers, said Vocalosity director Deke Sharon — singers like the birds, crickets, and whales. Singing, he said, is the oldest art form, with communities joined together for millennia in times of celebration and struggle, music note by music note, through religious songs, bar songs, fight songs, all kinds of songs. For most of history, everyone sang.

When the members of Vocalosity harmonize together on the Granada Theatre stage on Friday, November 11, at 8 p.m., Sharon feels his 10-piece a capella group will inspire audience members to find their own inner voice, as the internationally membered vocal group showcase their uniquely diversified and inventive style covering works from across pop music history.

Sharon is the contemporary a capella visionary behind the Pitch Perfect films and The Sing-Off series, which televises worldwide in the United States, China, the Netherlands, and South Africa. He feels Vocalosity is in many ways the culmination of his previous projects, namely in their ability to bring the joy of a capella off the screen to a live stage. “A capella music is best live, and always has been, because it builds a connection between people,” he said. While most people have fallen in love with a capella through works like Pitch Perfect and YouTube sensations such as Pentatonix, “these are all on screens — Vocalosity brings an amazing all-star group into people’s hometown, and they feel the connection and power that the vocal music has.”

The group is known for their imaginative medleys, and Vocalosity is not simply content to sing a playlist. Instead, they build narratives, like a love story told through the

SINGING STAR: Amy Whitcomb, who was on two seasons of The Sing-Off, is featured prominently on many songs. “When you have someone that good at singing harmony and vocals, it’s basically a home run,” director Deke Sharon said.

lyrics of Motown’s greatest hits, or telling a history of song from 10th-century Gregorian chants to the Beatles. “Every set is dif different,” Sharon said of their concerts, which are choreographed by Stomp original cast member Sean Curran.

To recruit some of the group’s members, Sharon looked far and wide across the international song competition circuit, finding bright stars such as tenor Cheeyang Ng, who won Campus Superstar, Singapore’s equivalent of American Idol. The result is a truly diverse set of singers and singing styles —“We look like a United Colors of Benetton ad,” Sharon joked— joked wherein each singer is given their moment in the spotlight and creative say, and oversized ego energies are left out of the picture. “You can’t have harmony without harmony. We cannot have any divas. In the same way that I create a vocal blend, I can create an atmosphere in which everyone feels respected and listened to, and everybody gets a different chance to shine,” he said. He notes their recent video

Why Art is importA mport nt mportA Arts education is perpetually on the chopping block when it comes to state and federal funding, despite its critical importance to culture and society. To address the fundamental necessity of the arts, Santa Barbara High School’s Visual Arts & Design Academy (VADA) is hosting a forum titled “How the Arts Drive Innovation and Social Change” on Wednesday, November 16, 6-8 p.m. at the Impact Hub (1117 State St.).

“As we enter into our 15th year, I really wanted to engage with the community in the ongoing discussion of why art is important,” said VADA director Daniel Barnett of the purpose of the symposium. Barnett will be joined by a panel of esteemed movers and shakers in the fields of art, science, and

covering Ariana Grande’s “Dangerous Woman,” wherein no one body type or one style is solely represented by the singers in the group — a rarity for female vocal groups.

Sharon hopes that by using one of civilization’s longest-standing energy resources — the power of song— song Vocalosity can bring about greater acceptance and understanding among us all. “We live in an incredibly divisive, bifurcated society, lines drawn, walls put up — people don’t even agree on the facts, let alone the interpretation of those facts,” he said. “We have lost the ability to listen and work with people who are different than us, but we are greater than the sum of our individual parts, and Vocalosity is the living embodiment of that.” Sing with them at the Granada, and feel the power of coexisting in greater harmony.

mike deGruy The world lost a great champion of the ocean when Santa Barbara’s renowned underwater filmmaker Mike deGruy died at age 60 in a helicopter accident in 2012. But his infectious excitement and ever more critical message about protecting the seas is once again headed for the big screen — his widow, accomplished filmmaker Mimi deGruy, is producing a documentary about her late husband’s life and legacy. On November 15, she launched a Kickstarter campaign to fundraise the $75,000 needed to complete post-production.

Though loaded with some of the most amazing sea life footage ever captured, the documentary was inspired by a newly found clip of Mike talking about the Deepwater Horizon spill of 2010, and focuses on his shift to environmental activism. I spoke with Mimi to learn more about the project.

Was it not until the Deepwater Horizon spill that he became more focused on activism?

We both grew up in families that were very comfortable in the natural world and took our relationship to the natural world very seriously. For Mike, the most effective way to get people to be sensitive to the environment was to show them how extraordinary it was.

Let’s make people fall in love with the ocean, and let’s make them not feel so alien to that world. That was always the philosophy behind his early work. Then, increasingly and particularly when the oil spill happened, he just said, “That idea no longer works. We’re reaching a point where people are so disconnected and so disrespectful of the ocean that I need to be more vocal in raising people’s awareness.”

How have you selected archival footage? What was kind of spooky is that Mike and I had been talking about a project that looked at the history of his career.

He had been pulling all of his favorite sequences and putting them on a timeline. When I finally went back into the editing room, I found that clip [of him talking about the Deepwater Horizon spill] and then all of this stuff on the timeline. It was almost like he said, “Here, this is my favorite work.” It was almost prescient.

“T

here’s something sweet about the show because it is a conversation between two old friends who’ve known each other 53 years,” said Eric Idle of his tour with John Cleese, Together Again at Last … for the Very First Time. “It’s a sort of narrative about how we got to be involved [with each other] and when Python came in and then what things happened.”

Idle and Cleese have spent their lives tickling our collective funny bone. From the pair’s stint with Monty Python to Idle’s award-winning musical, Spamalot to Cleese’s many film and television appearances (Fawlty Towers, A Fish Called Wanda, Will & Grace), the multitalented British wits have earned their status as comedy legends. Now they are taking it on the road, offering up a humorous retrospective of their life’s work. I recently spoke to Idle about the tour.

dressed as Little Red Riding Hood’s mother, and we had the lunch break, and we had a bottle of schnapps and got completely biddled. And I pulled out my guitar, and we wrote “Eric the Half-a-Bee” together halfway up a mountainside in Bavaria. We will show the clip of playing Little Red Riding Hood in Germany … and then tell the story of how we came to write the song, and hopefully we’ll sing it.

To Look for AmericA THE END OF A CYCLE: I write this column in an already outdated era, for in between its writing and publishing sit that dreaded unknown results of Election Day. I can only hope that what transpires is swift, and no contested victories or sociopolitical scandals protract what has surely been the most agonizing American election cycle to every living being on Earth. But I also know that the future I anticipate as solid now may be uncertain again tomorrow.

I hope that, whatever the outcome, we can look back on the lessons of an election that has shown the darkest BIG SHORTY: Trombone Shorty & Orleans part of our collective conAvenue bring a Big Easy sound to the Arlington sciousness as a nation —in Theatre, reminding us that there’s a lot to love all its seething and lurching about the U.S. hatred, conflict, obstinacy, idiocy, and ignorance—and make something good out of this side of ourselves.

Fortunately, no matter what regime helms that fought-for seat, music always finds a way to thrive along the airwaves and ether waves of the world. So may whatever music streams out of the State Street speakers this weekend shelter you from the exhaust of a droningly soul-sucking example of the United States political process. Hopefully, we can now relax.

CELEBRATE AMERICA: If you need a reminder of what makes our country great, just remember how much good music has come out of it. At the Arlington Theatre (1317 State St.), enjoy a tall serving of Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, who kick up the jazz for a good cause to rid the world of polio with the help of San Francisco–based opener The Stone Foxes on Friday, November 11, at 8 p.m. Feel a longing for the days before there was such a thing as a televised election? Go Americana at Cold Spring Tavern (5995 Stagecoach Rd.), where the Ventucky String Band plays a three-hour set, starting at 7 p.m.

REMEMBER WHAT TOGETHER MEANS? Some shows this upcoming weekend remind us what it means to be together, after so much division. On Friday, at the Lobero Theatre (33 E. Canon Perdido St.), Bodhi Path Santa Barbara hosts A Benefit Concert for Creativity and Awakening with Hauschka, The Kin, and Fred Johnson, melding meditation and music — see last week’s issue of The Santa Barbara Independent for a longer take on the matter. The day before, over at SOhO Restaurant & Music Club (1221 State St.), a few S.B. acts—The Big Whoo, David Segall, S.B. Improv Orchestra, and The Revelators —share a stage, collaborative jams, and, hopefully, stories, as Segall recently returned from a tour of old Europa, where en route he visited the town of Campobasso, Italy, to honor the life of his grandfather, who passed away last year, and now has seafaring tales to tell.

THE RETURN OF A CYCLE: Segall’s generational circumnavigation and roots revisitation had me pondering Classixx, who revisit the classic sounds of America’s disco era with a chic new shine at Velvet Jones (423 State St.) on Saturday at 7 p.m. Things abandoned have a way of returning once again, whether it’s the wonderful diversity-embrace of the disco dance floor or, tragically, the kind of reciprocal fear and hatred that seems to pendulously and cyclically fall upon our nation at the time its most marginalized communities struggle for a way to rise. Fortunately, Classixx reminds us that music always trumps hatred and those who spout it. Similarly, Rainbow Girls, who thankfully love to return to their S.B. stomping grounds, come back again for another cycle of love, harmony, and peaceful rock music at SOhO on Wednesday, November 16, at 7:30 p.m.

WHAT VOTING AGE? At last, we are again past the seasonal farcical falsehood of believing in the collective maturity and wisdom of a populace over 18, and on Saturday at 8 p.m., all ages are invited to join the Funzone (226 S.

occurring bullfight that we can only hear and therefore must imagine, Carmen is one long procession of dramatic music and spectacular theatrical effects.

Mezzo-soprano Leann Sandel-Pantaleo was suitably commanding in the title role, singing beautifully while dancing flamenco on a tabletop when necessary, and challenging all men to hold a candle to her volcanic sexuality throughout. Bizet’s composition encompasses multiple musical worlds, from the depths of the operatic tradition, through a remarkably durable Spanish idiom, all the way to sounds more reminiscent of Sousa than of Strauss or Wagner. The through line of this musical mishegas comes from Don José, here powerfully portrayed by tenor Harold Meers. José’s journey from infatuation to homicidal obsession provides the strong core around which such diverse elements as the famous “Habanera” and “Toreador” songs and the delightful children’s chorus can coalesce.

Although it’s often said that all singers who play Micaela benefit from the contrast between Carmen’s mezzo and their audiencepleasing soprano voices, Jeanine De Bique more than earned the rapturous ovation she received for her dazzling performance in the role. Although Carmen the character is a hard case who meets a bad end, Carmen the opera remains one of the easiest of the great classics to love — and among the most rewarding.

At the S.B. Bowl, Sat., Nov. 5.

ibrant altars capturing the essence of Día de los Muertos lined the Santa Barbara Bowl’s Jerry Garcia Glen last Saturday night as people made their way to their seats for an evening of music honoring the Mexican holiday.

First up was the Mexican Institute of Sound, which performed an electrifying opening set, warming up the maximum-

capacity crowd for the eagerly awaited headliner Morrissey.

The atmosphere was as gothic as a haunting operatic melody as Morrissey took the stage, his band’s faces painted like skulls. Clearly in his element, the beloved singer shouted, “And to you I say, happy death day!” before igniting the evening with a passionate rendition of The Smiths’ classic “How Soon Is Now?” from their 1985 record, Meat Is Murder.

Morrissey endured several audience attempts to climb onstage as he melted hearts

with songs from his solo career, including “Speedway” from 1994’s Vauxhall and I, “Kiss Me a Lot”, and the title song from his most recent success, 2014’s World Peace Is None of Your Business.

At 57, the prolific songwriter transported listeners to 1985, his eternally youthful spirit keeping the crowd out of their seats. Morrissey concluded his show with “First of the Gang to Die,” followed by a singular encore — and a Smiths fan favorite —“What She Said.” Once finished, he disappeared from the stage, leaving hearts racing with excitement and the feeling we’d just seen the charismatic ghost of indie rock’s Prince of Darkness.

At once angular and rhythmic, their shifting bodies dart low and high, the bounce of their cheerful ponytails belying a mounting tension burning just below the surface of their sharp gestures.

erforming in recitals is a rite of passage for any young aspiring dancer, mostly restricted to a particular studio or dance school. However, through the efforts of Santa Barbara Community College (SBCC) Dance Company, the audience at the Lobero Theatre enjoyed At the Lobero Theatre, a collaborative program that Fri., Nov. 4. included nine companies, three colleges, and two studios from Santa Barbara and Los Angeles last Friday night.

The acts mostly fell into the contemporary and modern jazz categories with a range of ballet styles, from a tenacious and admirable pointe piece by Santa Barbara Festival Ballet to the more modern ballet of The Thacher School dance ensemble. All the companies

with “Rogue Planets,” Meredith Cabaniss’s quietly methodical vision of four individuals on the precipice of enlightenment. Dancer Ashley Kohler-Reynolds shined through the imposing glare of the stage’s foot strobes, injecting Cabaniss’s contemporary ballet with seasoned deliberation and lingering interludes.

The company’s centerpiece “The Inquisitor,” had all of the whimsy and charm of an anecdotal fable, with live musical accompaniment and luscious backdrops framing each idiosyncratic character through their enduring quest for the answers to life. The residual spirit of the 600 schoolchildren who had filled the theater earlier that afternoon reminded me of dance theater’s lasting ability to captivate the singular joy of storytelling, observing movement through the looking glass of youthful delight. — Ninette Paloma

showed an elevated level of choreography, pushing the boundaries of movement and concept, such as Weslie Ching’s physicsinspired “You (Or Someone Like You)” and L.A. Dance Moves’“Do You Breathe Like Me?” The SBCC Dance Company shined in two stunning modern jazz pieces: “until east meets west,” choreographed by Shelby Lynn Joyce, which began with three handheld lights that played with the dancers’ silhouettes; and “Intersecting Fugue,” choreographed by Artistic Director Tracy R. Kofford, which explored the interconnectedness of relationships.

Breathtaking, each member of the company executed a distinctive level of technicality in the show.

Another stunning performance came from dancer Jade Cole performing “More Revealed,” created by L.A.-based choreographer Jess Harper. The depth of emotion Cole communicated as she battled her inner demons invited the audience members to come to terms with their own struggles, a perfect example of the healing power of dance.

Additional pieces from UCSB Dance Company, Pierce College Dance Company, the PGK Dance Project, and many more showed all of the choreographers’ talent in concept and movement. The Lobero audience was dazzled by each piece.

An incredible night brought together

by Kofford and his team created a space to celebrate dance and community. After performing, dancers would sneak into the audience to watch the other acts, learning from each other and appreciating the emerging aptitude of S.B. and L.A.

ver since Christopher Guest regaled us with the beauty of “turning it up to 11,” as rocker Nigel Tufnel in This is Spinal Tap, many among us have craved that unique flavor and understated zing of the Guest-ian comic touch. It’s a dry mode of comedy, verging on but never completely giving in to absurdity or to delivering obvious punch-line moments.

The consistent character of his work — and that of his keenly equipped ensemble cast — adds up to a distinctive and coherent world unto itself in comedic filmmaking, often leaving us wanting more.

Thankfully, Guest (and Netflix, which funded the project) has heard our pleas and filled our hunger with the delectable and lovably oddball Mascots, his first film in a decade, available now on Netflix. Guest craves finding the right social milieu or quirky subculture to live in for a project, whether it’s clueless rockers in Spinal Tap, provincial theater in Waiting for Guffman, or dog show dynamics in Best in Show.

In Mascots, he takes a trip to another offshoot from normality, unmasking the secret world of “mascottery”— a profession requiring enthusiasm, showbiz instincts, and that seeming enemy of celebrity: anonymity. Guest takes advantage of the outrageously varied menagerie of costumes, skits, and real-life personalities in the field to keep the film fresh. Plotwise, all roads lead to Anaheim, where our masked heroes are competing in the World Mascot Association championship, hoping to win “the Golden Fluffy Award” and possibly a coveted spot on the Gluten Free Channel (run by Upton French, who previously had the Varicose Vein Channel).

Ah, yes, to be back in the land of the well-made, slightly lunatic mockumentary (Guest reportedly hates the term “mockumentary,” preferring the less snarky “faux documentary,” but Philip Glass claimed to hate “minimalism” yet has gone to the bank on its marketing power). Seeing these actors, deft in their improvisational skills, back in action on-screen again—as individuals and ensemble—is a thrill unto itself, akin to revisiting an eccentric, perhaps half-crazed, branch on one’s family tree for the holidays. There’s Parker Posey as Cindi Babineaux, doing her mock-modern dance in a mask (allowing her to switch out with sister Laci).

There’s Ed Begley Jr. as A.J. Blumquist, who admits he’s “phallically challenged”: “I take comfort from Tom Thumb, Tiny Tim. …”

actual directorial task). New to the team and wellsuited to the subtle comic task, Zach Woods (Silicon Valley) and Chris O’Dowd have sure instincts of what to put in and what to leave out—key skills in the Guest school of comedy.

What can we say about Fred Willard, an enlightened misfit in the comedy cosmos since his days in Fernwood Tonight? He appears as a “mascot coach,” but in true Willard fashion, he seems less authoritative than a loon from a parallel planet. Various “Say what?” moments in the film sneak up on your senses without the old comic routines of setup and payoff, as when Jack the Plumber tries out his skit as a warm-up, in what turns out to be a school for the blind.

Just as one never quite knows where the structure leaves off and the improvisation begins, or where the realities of the culture in question are sacrificed at the altar of Guest-esque audacity, Mascots takes its rightful place in the fairly slender ranks of strong contenders in the mockumentery genre. We’ll never look at mascots in quite the same way again, now that their world has been Guest-dusted.

ScREEningS O Don’t Call Me Son (82 mins., NR)

Double doses of adolescent alienation and identity flux descend on this impressive Brazilian film, as our teen protagonist Pierre/Felipe faces both confusing transgender impulses and the disorienting fact that he was kidnapped by the family he thought was his and re“abducted” by his birth family. Rather than go for the melodramatic potential, director Anna Muylaert wisely tells the story in a compelling, naturalistic way, building to punctuating climaxes and letting ambiguous emotionality fester and simmer. It’s an unforced tale of stark transitions and familial tangles, painful and poignant, and ultimately on a hopeful path. (JW)

In Marvel Comics’ adrenaline-charged origin story of Doctor Strange, the protagonist, charismatically played by Benedict Cumberbatch, discovers that becoming a superhero is vastly more challenging and exhilarating than being the world’s greatest neurosurgeon.

Designed to entertain and entrance the 16-year-old in all of us, the film is cool, witty, and visually kaleidoscopic yet refreshingly free of bombs, bullets, and bazookas. Weapons are mesmerizingly conjured from light, while sorcery, mysticism, and flights to other dimensions play dominant roles. The splendid cast reunites Cumberbatch and Chiwetel Ejiofor (last seen together in 12 Years a Slave) and includes the great Tilda Swinton and Mads Mikkelsen, hiding his sexiness behind face-painted villainy.

a&e | Rob bRezsny’s fRee will astRology week of novembeR 10 ARIES (Mar. 21 - Apr. 19): Now and then you display an excessive egotism that pushes people away. But during the next six weeks you will have an excellent chance to shed some of that tendency, even as you build more of the healthy pride that attracts help and support. So be alert for a steady flow of intuitions that will instruct you on how to elude overconfidence and instead cultivate more of the warm, radiant charisma that is your birthright. You came here to planet Earth not just to show off your bright beauty but also to wield it as a source of inspiration and motivation for those whose lives you touch.

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20): “How often I found where I should be going only by setting out for somewhere else,” said inventor Buckminster Fuller. I don’t fully endorse that perspective. For example, when I said good-bye to North Carolina with the intention to make Northern California my new home, Northern California is exactly where I ended up and stayed. Having said that, however, I suspect that the coming months could be one of those times when Fuller’s formula applies to you. Your ultimate destination may turn out to be different from your original plan. But here’s the tricky part: If you do want to eventually be led to the situation that’s right for you, you have to be specific about setting a goal that seems right for now.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20): If you were an obscenely rich plutocrat, you might have a pool table on your superyacht. And to ensure that you and your buddies could play pool even in a storm that rocked your boat, you would have a special gyroscopic instrument installed to keep your pool table steady and stable. But I doubt you have such luxury at your disposal. You’re just not that wealthy or decadent. You could have something even better, however: metaphorical gyroscopes that Homework: Compare the person you are now with who you were two years ago. Make a list of three important differences. Testify at Freewillastrology.com.

will keep you steady and stable as you navigate your way through unusual weather. Do you know what I’m referring to? If not, meditate on the three people or influences that might best help you stay grounded.

Then make sure you snuggle up close to those people and influences during the next two weeks.

phorically similar phenomenon in your life, Virgo. To get to where you want to go next, you can’t necessarily travel exactly when you feel like it. The path will be open and available for brief periods. But it will be open and available.

CANCER

(Sept. 23 - Oct. 22): Modern toilet paper appeared in 1901 when a company in Green Bay, Wisconsin, began to market “sanitary tissue” to the public. The product had a small problem, however. Since the manufacturing process wasn’t perfect, wood chips sometimes remained embedded in the paper. It was not until 1934 that the product was offered as officially “splinter-free.”

I mention this, Libra, because I suspect that you are not yet in the splinter-free phase of the promising possibility you’re working on. Keep at it. Hold steady.

Eventually you’ll purge the glitches.

(June 21 - July 22): The coming weeks will be a good time to fill your bed with rose petals and sleep with their aroma caressing your dreams. You should also consider the following acts of intimate revolution: listening to sexy spiritual flute music while carrying on scintillating conversations with interesting allies, sharing gourmet meals in which you and your sensual companions use your fingers to slowly devour your delectable food, dancing naked in semi-darkness as you imagine your happiest possible future. Do you catch my drift, Cancerian? You’re due for a series of appointments with savvy bliss and wild splendor.

LEO (July 23 - Aug. 22): “I have always wanted ... my mouth full of strange sunlight,” writes Leo poet Michael Dickman in his poem “My Honeybee.” In another piece, while describing an outdoor scene from childhood, he innocently asks, “What kind of light is that?” Elsewhere he confesses,“What I want more than anything is to get down on paper what the shining looks like.” In accordance with the astrological omens, Leo, I suggest you follow Dickman’s lead in the coming weeks. You will receive soulful teachings if you pay special attention to both the qualities of the light you see with your eyes and the inner light that wells up in your heart.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22): The Passage du Gois is a 2.8 mile causeway that runs between the western French town of Beauvoir-sur-Mer and the island of Noirmoutier in the Atlantic Ocean. It’s only usable twice a day when the tide goes out, and even then for just an hour or two. The rest of the time it’s under water. If you hope to walk or bike or drive across, you must accommodate yourself to nature’s rhythms. I suspect there’s a meta-

LIBRA

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21): “Don’t be someone that searches, finds, and then runs away,” advises novelist Paulo Coelho. I’m tempted to add this caveat: “Don’t be someone that searches, finds, and then runs away — unless you really do need to run away for a while to get better prepared for the reward you have summoned ... and then return to fully embrace it.” After studying the astrological omens, Scorpio, I’m guessing you can benefit from hearing this information.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21): Go ahead and howl a celebratory “Good-bye!” to any triviality that has distracted you from your worthy goals, to any mean little ghost that has shadowed your good intentions, and to any faded fantasy that has clogged up the flow of your psychic energy. I also recommend that you whisper “Welcome!” to open secrets that have somehow remained hidden from you, to simple lessons you haven’t been simple enough to learn before now, and to breathtaking escapes you have only recently earned. P.S.: You are authorized to refer to the coming weeks as a watershed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19): Musician and visual artist Brian Eno loves to dream up innovative products. In 2006, he published a DVD called 77 Million Paintings, which uses technological trickery to generate 77 million different series of images. To watch the entire thing would take 9,000 years. In my opinion, it’s an interesting but gimmicky novelty — not particularly deep or meaningful. During the next nine months, Capricorn, I suggest that you attempt a far more impressive feat: a richly complex creation that will provide you with growth-inducing value for years to come.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18): Do you know about the Lords of Shouting? According to Christian and Jewish mythology, they’re a gang of 15.5 million angels that greet each day with vigorous songs of praise and blessing.

Most people are too preoccupied with their own mind chatter to pay attention to them, let alone hear their melodious offerings. But I suspect you may be an exception to that rule in the coming weeks. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you’ll be exceptionally alert for and receptive to glad tidings.

You may be able to spot opportunities that others are blind to, including the chants of the Lords of Shouting and many other potential blessings. Take advantage of your aptitude!

PISCES (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20): Greenland sharks live a long time — up to 400 years, according to researchers at the University of Copenhagen. The females of the species don’t reach sexual maturity until they’re 150. I wouldn’t normally compare you Pisceans to these creatures, but my reading of the astrological omens suggests that the coming months will be a time when at long last you will reach your full sexual ripeness. It’s true that you’ve been capable of generating new human beings for quite some time. But your erotic wisdom has lagged behind. Now that’s going to change. Your ability to harness your libidinous power will soon start to increase.

As it does, you’ll gain new access to primal creativity.

sKiLLed NOW HIRING‑General Laborers and Driver Laborers for Demolition/Roof removal.

FOUND iPhone 6S Plus (I believe) My husband found an iPhone 6 yesterday afternoon while hiking around Gibraltar (2900 bulk, I think).

I believe it may have come from one of the many vehicles that has crashed up in the area. The phone has an activation lock on it, so I can’t look for any identifying information.

I’ve called Apple and AT&T (carrier according to the SIM card). Neither could help me.

If anyone knows of someone who was in one of those accidents, or anyone else that this may belong to, and can show them this post, I’d like to return this phone to them.
