Rare Sightings and New Year’s Wishes

A

ccording to local rancher Jim Jackson, there were some pretty exciting wildlife sightings over the Christmas holidays on the 237-acre Jacksonowned Rancho San Carlos at 2500 East Valley Road, captured on security video by ranch foreman and Montecito Water District (MWD) board member Sam Frye.

First came a herd of forest fawns, feasting on the Jackson Ranch’s orange grove. Oranges are no longer economical for the ranch owners to harvest, so the deers’ Christmas table was set in the orchard. Next door, in the avocado grove, a hungry black bear, down from Los Padres National Forest, ignored the deer but feasted on guacamole and avocado dip.

One night, in the week before Christmas, there arose such a clatter that the Jackson family scrambled to the video camera to see what was the matter. And what to their amazement should appear but a 180-pound mountain lion devouring a four-point deer. The lion had a smile on his face and a little round tummy, while the buck was wishing he was not nearly that yummy.

As we start 2015, here are a few “New Year Hopes, Dreams, and Needs” for those who have been either naughty or nice in 2014.

Hopes, Dreams, & Needs for 2015

The Palmer Jackson Family hopes to find a buyer with $125 million in spare change who wants to renovate their historic estate home, set on 237 acres, the largest uncorrupted parcel of land in Montecito. Not so welcome for the rest of us would be an ambitious real estate developer, hoping to build 100 or more mini-mansions on the pristine property in eastern Montecito, replete with deer, bears, and mountain lions.

Montecito Fire Department dreams of finding a buyer for the Jackson Ranch who played with fire trucks, loved firemen as a child, and now wants a new firehouse in his front yard. Buyer must be well-heeled and willing to do court battle with Craig McCaw, who doesn’t want to view a fire station across the street from his $16.5 million equestrian spread.

John McInnes, GM, Goleta Water District hopes to share a 200,000 acre-feet (AF) underground basin of water (alleged to be the size of Lake Cachuma when full) lying beneath the Slippery Rock Ranch in the Goleta foothills. Perhaps the Ghosts of Montecito Past, Santa Barbara Present, and Carpinteria Future can convince the “Grinch of Goleta” that even if Montecito bought 1,000 AF per year of ranch water, and it didn’t rain in Goleta for the next 100 years, Goleta would still have enough water to avoid rationing.

Deborah Scaudlo Alex looks back at 2014!

Rick Caruso prays that the Montecito Planning Commission (MPC) votes “No” on the Miramar, giving him the “green light” to go directly to the board of supervisors (BOS), to override further delay of a project that has already been held hostage for nearly a decade.

Residents of Montecito should resolve to help Heal the Ocean, provide a scholarship to a needy student, or support a Neighborhood Clinic, a Visiting Nurse or Hospice. Share your good fortune, or your valuable time, with •MJ those who need your help.

We hope the Montecito Water District (MWD) finds the courage to end mandatory rationing now. Rationing made sense in March 2014 when Montecito was going dry by the third week in July. The community’s remarkable 45-percent reduction in usage, paired with MWD’s purchase of enough supplemental water to create a carryover has alleviated the rationing need. Now is the time for MWD to end rationing, purchase, and store adequate reserves and end its dependence on penalty fines to fund current operations.

Montecito Association (MA) needs to find a voice to make a difference.

In November, the MA Board of Directors voted unanimously, 14 to 0, to support the revised plan for the Miramar. One month later in December, they did not send a letter to the Montecito Planning Commission (MPC), or appear before MPC to voice the board’s unanimous vote of support. An active, engaged, and united MA is vital to the future of Montecito.

op philanthropists Mike and Anne Towbes have become Broadway producers!

The tony twosome are backing a one-man play off the Great White Way called Wiesenthal, based on the life of famed Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal at the 199-seat Acorn Theatre.

Directed by veteran actress Jenny Sullivan, the show was written by and stars Tom Dugan as Wiesenthal, dubbed the Jewish James Bond, who lost 89 family members and devoted more than six decades to bringing Nazi war criminals, notably Adolf Eichmann, to justice.

“We were asked by Karyl Lynn Burns, founder of the Rubicon Theater in Ventura, to co-produce the production with Daryl Roth when she took it off-Broadway in the fall,” says Anne.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 15 Lecture at Maritime Museum Patti Jacquemain presents: “Heads and Tales: A Lecture focus on fascinating wildlife in Santa Barbara County, past and present” at the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum. It has long been Patti’s hope that through her words and art she can play a role in the recognition, protection, and conservation of the plight of our disappearing wildlife in today’s world. From the Channel Island’s extinct Pygmy Mammoth and the great Grizzly Bear that once roamed the mainland, to the soaring giant California Condor, the Santa Barbara region has been blessed with a great variety and abundance of wildlife both past and present. This diversity has greatly inspired Patti throughout her career as a woodblock artist and mosaicist.

As an artist, Jacquemain has had many one-woman shows of her original woodblock prints across the country and her work is found in numerous collections. Her images have been distributed internationally through the publication of greeting cards and calendars by UNICEF, Pomegranate Press, and the Sierra Club, and locally through Mission Creek Studios and Chaucer’s Bookstore. She is the author and illustrator of three art books, and has installed her mosaic art in Santa Barbara’s Cottage Hospital, the Santa Barbara Botanic Gardens, the First Presbyterian Church, and Creekspirit (a private mosaic garden in Mission Canyon) among other public and private collections.

Public Servants or Public Masters?

I

always believed that planning commissioners were volunteer public servants devoted to improving our community. What a disillusionment after watching the Montecito Planning Commission’s December 18 hearing! The commissioners seemed more like individuals wanting to show their knowledge and flaunt their power.

The hearing, intended for final project approval, was for a scaled-down version of two previously, and still currently, approved Miramar projects that had been approved unanimously by the Montecito Association and that has broad approval in the community. Mr. (Rick) Caruso promised to start construction in June 2015 and complete by June 2017, in time for the busy summer season, if approved that day.

The meeting started with the chairperson wondering if there should even be a hearing because a lawyer sent a letter that morning that was disruptive. One commissioner did not want to make a decision until he had seen and evaluated a 40-year-old leasehold agreement for a few parking spaces. Another seemed to want a new EIR. There were extensive questions about water use, even though Mr. Mosby, general manager of the Montecito Water District, calmly kept repeating that the water district could provide the needed amount to its existing customer. There were repeated questions about the Montecito Fire District’s long-range plans to a knowledgeable representative who seemed perplexed at some of the questions.

They also wanted a detailed employee breakdown for their analysis, as if they could fathom the detailed needs of a five-star hotel! One commissioner wanted to redesign the project and incorporate underground parking!

There were many other questions, all answered at previous hearings. What can they be thinking?

To say that this was an embarrassing meeting would be putting it very mildly. I can only hope that Mr. Caruso, the Miramar property owner, will find a way to complete the hotel without any further ridiculous delays.

Ruminations on 2015

Wouldn’t it be great if we could put ourselves in the dryer for 10 minutes, come out wrinkle-free and three sizes smaller?

Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven’t met yet.

The day the world runs out of wine is just too terrible to think about.

I don’t trip over things, I do random gravity checks.

I don’t need anger management; I need people to stop pissing me off.

Old age is coming at a really bad time. When I was a child, I thought nap time was a punishment... now, as a grown up, it just feels like a small vacation.

The biggest lie I tell myself is “I don’t need to write that down; I’ll remember it.”

Lord, grant me the strength to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the friends to post my bail when I finally snap.

I don’t have gray hair. I have “wisdom highlights.” I’m just very wise.

My people skills are just fine. It’s my tolerance to idiots that needs work.

Teach your daughter how to shoot, because a restraining order is just a piece of paper.

If God wanted me to touch my toes, he would’ve put them on my knees.

The kids text me “plz” which is shorter than please. I text back “no” which is shorter than “yes.”

I’m going to retire and live off my savings. Not sure what I’ll do that second week.

I’ve lost my mind, and I’m pretty sure my kids took it.

Even duct tape can’t fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.

Why do I have to press one for English when you’re just gonna transfer me to someone I can’t understand anyway? Lord, give me patience and give it to me now.

Of course I talk to myself; some-

Wishing You A Wonderful New Year in 2015!

his Sunday, January 11, Xanadu Bakery in Montecito Country Mart will close its doors for the last time. Owner Sepi Mashhoon says the decision to close the eatery was not easy but has decided it’s the best thing at this time. She sat down with us earlier this week to discuss the closure, which Mashhoon announced to her customers two weeks ago.

Mashhoon says the main reason for the closure is an ongoing dispute with the owner of the mart, James Rosenfield. “We were never part of his vision, and he made that clear from day one,” she said. A representative from J.S. Rosenfield tells us they do not wish to comment on the closure, but that it’s likely they will keep the space as a bakery.

Xanadu was formerly owned by another family for 26 years (since 1982), and Mashhoon and her husband, Mike, bought the bakery in 2008; Rosenfield acquired a 30-year ground lease on the shopping center about a year and a half after. Six months later, an electrical fire in the shopping complex forced the Mashhoons to close the bakery for 18 months. It was rebuilt from the ground up, and modernized with dark wood paneling, granite countertops, and ample indoor and outdoor seating.

Mrs. Mashhoon tells us the last two years since reopening have been filled with disputes over the lease and rent,

A sign at Xanadu informs customers of the impending closure

and signage and marketing, as well as disagreements over liability for the necessary repairs since the fire, including a lawsuit. “[Rosenfield] told us we should cut our losses and not reopen, and that he would not honor the lease we held with the previous owners,” Mashhoon said. “He said his vision for the space was a ‘boutique bakery,’ which apparently we did not fulfill.”

Mashhoon has been vocal about the disagreements, posting on Xanadu’s

Facebook page that she would rather close the bakery’s doors than continue to do business with Rosenfield.

In the past five years, Country Mart has undergone an extensive renovation, adding such tenants as Intermix, Space NK, James Perse, Calypso St. Barth, Rori’s Creamery, Mate Gallery, Pressed Juicery, George, Toy Crazy, and the relocated Read ‘N’ Post. They join previous tenants Malia Mills, One Hour Martinizing, Montecito Barbers, Little Alex’s, Panino, and Montecito Natural Foods. No word yet on what will open in the vacant space.

Customers have been shocked and sympathetic over the closure, which Mashhoon says she is sad about. “I will really miss all the friends and loyal customers I’ve made here,” she said.

When we reported the bakery was reopening in January 2012, Mashhoon called Xanadu “her baby,” and since then she has been at the restaurant on a daily basis. The bakery, which was open seven days a week, offered more than 100 different types of cookies, cakes, pastries, Danishes, and more, as well as a full coffee, smoothie, breakfast, and lunch menu. The closure will cost more than a dozen employees their jobs; most of the staff are local high school and college students.

Mashhoon says she will take the next six months off to help with the other family businesses (the couple

also operate a produce brokerage and own real estate) and figure out what she will do next, including possibly re-opening the bakery somewhere else in Santa Barbara.

“Mostly I want to thank the loyal customers who kept us in business for so long,” Mashhoon said. “They stood by us when we were closed after the fire, and we have some people that eat here every single day. We’ve been very lucky, and for that I am grateful,” she went on.

Xanadu will shut its doors for the last time at the end of the day on Sunday, January 11. Mashhoon is selling all the restaurant equipment and furniture; inquire with her at the shop if interested. Xanadu is located across from Vons, (805) 969-3550.

T

he Cancer (Wellness) Center of Santa Barbara along with Sansum Clinic has been having an art exhibit and reception for seven years. Where does all the art come from? It comes from cancer patients themselves.

For 18 years, artist Rick Stich has been teaching art at the center. As he says, “It may sound like a strange way to start your week, but every Monday

I head for the Cancer Center.” He inspires the students and they inspire him. Martha Inman Lorch is his volunteer assistant instructor.

This year, there were 25 artists exhibiting. The halls were lined with paintings and in addition there were high cocktail tables, wine to sip, and scrumptious canapés. Not your usual weekly fare.

“Painting keeps me in the now, keeps my brain from spinning, thinking too much about cancer.” Now in its 18th year, the class has helped hundreds to discover a means of expression or peace of mind during their cancer journey. Beginning students who refrained from focusing on the final product but instead on the creative process created the majority of featured paintings. One of the artists raved about Rick’s teaching, saying, “If I draw a little black scribble, he will say it looks like a Matisse!”

Some of the students displaying were Leasha Barry, Malka Belzberg, Graham Bury, Becca Carlisle, Ines Erlinger, Elizabeth Fuentes, Dennis Guinaugh, Katherine Holden, Linda Howell, Louis Komp, John McGibbon, Christine Ramirez, Laura Schmid, Lisa Tomlin, Deborah Umansky, Susanne van Duinwyk, Karen von Somogyi, and Debra Weaver.

Dr. Fred Kass spoke to the guests: “I will be refreshingly brief. I hate it when a speaker pulls out a stack of index cards.” The exhibit, which is a permanent revolving display, is a constant source of inspiration to patients, family members and staff. “Art, not laughter, is the best medicine.”

Holiday Tea

The Lobero Theatre Associates fete an elegant tea each December.

This year it was at the Four Seasons Biltmore, which gets you in the holiday spirit just walking into their lobby.

It’s absolutely over the top!

Elegant holiday dress was de rigueur and the lobster finger sandwiches were “to die for.” I quit counting after the first two or so. There was tea, but champagne was more popular.

Fredrick again played Christmas songs on the piano. Lobero Associates president Marcy Bazzani thanked everyone for coming. Executive director David Asbell spoke to the group, “I have to say that the guests look better than the food. You have given the Lobero 40 years of support. Especially by giving us our courtyard.” The funds raised by the ladies go directly to the theater. Another project was the grand piano. They support the youth education program and basic operating costs.

All the ladies brought an unwrapped toy, which will be delivered to CALM to be distributed to deserving children. Some of those attending were Jane Burkemper, Lana Marmé, Marlena Handler, Hope Kelly, Mary Ellen McEachen, Pamela Herzog, Gunilla Hutton, Jean Crossland, Maribel Jarchow, Holly Murphy, Leslie Haight, Eileen Mielko, and director of development Jim Dougherty.

Save the date March 28 for the Associates gala fundraiser at the Coral Casino. For more information, call Jessica Simon at 679-6007.

Casa Christmas

Casa del Herrero’s board treats its volunteer docents to a Christmas dinner in the 1920s house each year.

In case you’ve never been there, the 11-acre estate is a National Historic landmark, as is our Mission and Courthouse. George Washington Smith was the Casa architect. It’s only a couple of doors down from the Montecito Library on East Valley Road and is open to the public for tours.

That’s what many of us docents do – take people on tours through the property. Since relatives of the original creators, George and Carrie Steedman, are still serving on the board, they have memories of visiting grandma and grandpa when they were children. Some docents meet weekly to fill the vases with fresh flowers so the

house looks lived-in. It also is filled with all the original antique furniture from Spain. Other volunteers work in the herb garden.

In December, the house is totally decorated for the holidays in preparation for its annual fundraiser and for the special Christmas tours. All year long, Susannah Gordon, visitor and volunteer coordinator, keeps track of the docents, runs a monthly meeting, and supervises the tours. Kudos to that lady! And to the executive director Molly Barker.

In charge of the docent evening was Jo Thompson and her committee Dannise Parker and Sue Skenderian.

Jo and her husband, Willard, have the distinction of renting one of the guesthouses on the property. Some of those

the Holocaust, with the hope that it never happens again.

“Wiesenthal brought 1,200 Nazi criminals to justice. But the play chillingly reminds us over 20,000 war criminals were not prosecuted.”

This is the second time the dynamic duo have been involved in a co-production with the Rubicon Theatre, the first being How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, starring British actor Daniel Radcliffe of Harry Potter fame.

“Although there are amazing theater opportunities in Santa Barbara, we are also happy to make the halfhour drive to Ventura to enjoy the Rubicon’s excellent productions,” adds Anne...

Canadian Cuisine Mega director Ivan Reitman is taking our rarefied enclave farther afield.

The 68-year-old Toronto-born native, who has lived in our Eden by Beach in a 20,000-square-foot six bedroom home on 6.5 lush acres for many years, has opened a 280-seat, two story eatery, Montecito, in the Canadian metropolis in partnership with New York chef, Jonathan Waxman, who he has known for 30 years after they first met at Michael’s in Santa Monica, where he was executive chef.

Situated appropriately enough in Reitman Square in the city’s entertainment district, Ivan, who founded his Montecito Picture Company in 2000 and is known for such blockbusters as Animal House, Ghostbusters, and Kindergarten Cop, says he didn’t want his eatery to be too expensive.

“I wanted it to be a place that would attract patrons to come back time and time again.” he adds. “The idea of simple California cuisine is entirely drawn from my life in Montecito. The light is very special because of where we’re located between the water and the mountains.

“I tried to get the best of that in Toronto. When you sit in the main dining room and upstairs bar, there are screens with real video I shot of scenery from Montecito. Movies and restaurants both rely on their patrons.

You have to deliver something good if you expect people to keep coming back. They are both people-based industries.”

Waxman, considered a pioneer of California cuisine, learned his culinary skills with Alice Waters at Chez Panisse in Berkeley, following in the footsteps of an old friend, Jeremiah Tower, who founded the bustling eatery Stars in San Francisco, complete with grand piano just a few feet from the giant open kitchen, a favorite of mine when I was regular commentator on the ABC affiliate KGO’s Good Morning Bay Area.

He currently owns Barbuto in Manhattan’s West Village, where he

Santa Barbara culinary whiz, Michael Hutchings, is taking over from Ballard Inn owner and chef Budi Kazali on the show, co-produced by Craig Case, who also hosts, and Ira Distenfeld.

Michael, 65, a popular local caterer, ran Michael’s Waterside in our tony town for 10 years until 1993, appeared with the late cooking legend Julia Child on her PBS-TV show Dinner at Julia’s, worked under Carpinteria restaurateur James Sly at La Serre in Studio City and was executive chef at the iconic L’Orangerie in West Hollywood, where I celebrated my 50th birthday.

Mega winemaker Bill Foley, 70, who made his fortune in the title insurance industry and now owns more than 16 vineyards from Napa to New Zealand, continues to be the major sponsor with his popular Foley Food and Wine Society, with the culinary action being filmed at his Los Olivos Victorian estate, Crossroads, in Santa Ynez, with dramatic views of the San Rafael Mountains.

American Abbey Downton Abbey actress Lesley Nicol, who plays the stately pile’s gruff chef Beryl Patmore and was here before Christmas for a private whale watching cruise on the Condor Express hosted by Hiroko Benko, as I exclusively revealed here, is planning to become an American citizen.

Lesley, 61, who just flew back to London to begin filming the sixth series of the popular PBS show at Highclere Castle, the imposing estate of the Earl and Countess of Carnarvon, bought a home in the Hollywood Hills last August and says she is enamored with the California lifestyle.

“I’m having the best time of my life,” she tells my old friend, Caroline Graham, West Coast correspondent for London’s Mail on Sunday. “I’ve made a lot friends and like to take long walks on the beach with my dogs and

have a paddle in the ocean. Coming eyeball to eyeball with a hummingbird on my terrace is as exciting to me as any celebrity I’ve met as a result of Downton Abbey.”

It also helps that Lesley, who hails from Manchester in the north of England, has landed a spot on the hit U.S. comedy show Hot in Cleveland, alongside Frasier co-star and fellow Brit, Jane Leeves, and will also be seen in the sitcom Raising Hope and the fantasy action series Supernatural.

Lesley, who has a brother in South Carolina, is also planning to become a naturalized American.

“I feel a real affinity here,’ she says.

“It’s a million miles from Downton and England, but I truly feel at home.

I really do.”

The Way It Was

by Hattie Beresford

Québec: In Search of Gamache

Port St. Louis is one of several gates into the walled city

The slogan of Québec, seen here near the parade ground at the Citadelle, asks the citizens to remember their history, their culture, and those who died for their country

F

ans of Louise Penny’s Chief Inspector Gamache mystery series would be envious of our three-night sojourn in la Cité de Québec. Penny, a four-time winner of the coveted Agatha Award, is a magnificent writer who just gets better and better with each book.

Serendipitously, I had picked up Bury Your Dead for the long plane ride to Québec (two layovers and a 10:30 pm arrival) and was thrilled to learn that Gamache, who was recovering from a tragic shootout, was visiting his former mentor in the Cité. We decided to

follow his footsteps.

Founded as a fur trading post in 1608

by Samuel de Champlain, Québec is today the only walled city in North America north of Mexico and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Like Armand Gamache, we chose to stay in the inner town. Completely walkable, the town within the walls is brimming with historical architecture and institutions. And it’s beautiful; the many restaurants and unique shops inhabit the antique storefronts, adding color and life to the venerable city.

The first morning we headed for

Ms Beresford is a retired English and American history teacher of 30 years in the Santa Barbara School District. She is author of two Noticias, “El Mirasol: From Swan to Albatross” and “Santa Barbara Grocers,” for the Santa Barbara Historical Society.

Place d’Armes, where a statue of Samuel de Champlain stands on the edge of the cliff and surveys the town he had founded. In Penny’s novel, Gamache becomes embroiled in a reallife, long-standing mystery, the search for the lost remains of Champlain, “the Father of New France.” The victim of the murder (one must have a murder in a murder mystery, after all) is an eccentric and persistent hunter for the Champlain’s bones. That char-

acter, Austin Renaud, is a thinly disguised and fictionalized version of a very real devotee of the cause. Before his death from cancer, former Jesuit priest René Levesque had engaged in a fervent 50-year search for the gravesite. Dominating Place d’Armes – in fact, dominating the skyline of the entire city – is Chateau Frontenac.

Named for Louis de Buade, Count of Frontenac, governor of New France in the late 1600s, this hotel is one of a series of “chateau” hotels built for the Canadian Pacific Railway. It opened its doors in 1893 and newer portions date from 1924. It was the site for two WWII strategy sessions between Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Canadian Prime Minister Mackenzie King. It is also

MISCELLANY (Continued from page 17)

The pair were co-owners of the Always Evolving car shop in Valencia and the actor was said to have amassed a collection of more than 30 cars.

Paul Walker Sr. has reportedly demanded the return of $1.8 million worth of cars, or the cash equivalent, immediately and that he has filed court papers seeking to resolve the issue, according to TMZ. They say the estate of Rodas is in possession of numerous vehicles belonging to his son and the cars were fully or partially owned by him.

Rodas’s family is said to have already rejected the claim, which will now be resolved by a judge.

Following Walker’s death, it was reported his extensive car collection, said to include several late model BMWs, Audis, Porsches, and a number of Ford Mustangs, was to be sold off in a sale arranged by Always Evolving and his estate.

Watch this space...

Balthazar, a member of the wealthy oil dynasty, also shared news of the reunion with his Twitter followers.

Later in the day, Rob posted a video of firework celebrations, wishing everyone a Happy New Year...

Montecito actor Rob Lowe was kicking it island style on New Year’s Eve in Hawaii with his former Brothers & Sisters co-star Balthazar Getty.

The 50-year-old, who was also spotted surfing and hanging out with his wife of 24 years, Sheryl Berkoff, shared a picture of himself and 39-year-old Balthazar on Instagram.

Father-of-two Rob, who played Balthazar’s on-screen brother-inlaw on the ABC show, captioned the image: “Brothers & Sisters reunion in the islands with my man @BaltGetty.”

Armie will next be seen in Guy Ritchie’s spy action comedy The Man From U.N.C.L.E. alongside British actors Henry Cavill and Hugh Grant...

Inveterate art and car collector Michael Hammer had more reason than most to celebrate over the holidays.

The Montecito philanthropist has become a grandfather for the first time after his actor son, Armie, 28, and his wife, Elizabeth, 32, had a baby daughter, Harper.

She was slightly overdue when she arrived last month, but Michael was delighted to receive her into the family.

“I am so excited about the first new addition to the next generation of the Hammer family,” he tells me.

“What a miracle. Harper really is the most beautiful baby. To see Armie and Elizabeth become such exceptional loving parents overnight makes me so proud!”

The brunette beauty and The Lone Ranger actor were married in May 2010, after being introduced in 2008 through his artist friend Tyler Ramsey.

The 6-foot-5 thespian and his wife purchased BIRD bakery in San Antonio, Texas, together three years ago, but it’s Elizabeth who has been running the business hands-on. They split their time between their homes there and in Los Angeles.

Pops works from the time of Arthur Fiedler, who wielded his baton in the Massachusetts city for 50 years, and multi-Oscar winning composer John Williams, winner of 21 Grammy Awards, as well as four Golden Globes.

The eclectic program started with Sousa, Bizet, Anderson, and Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue”, gloriously played by Chertock, making his Santa Barbara debut, who has performed the work more than 50 times.

The second half was mostly film themes from Williams, including the Far and Away Suite, Viktor’s Tale from The Terminal with Foster superb on clarinet, wrapping with selections from Fiddler on the Roof and a compendium of the late Marvin Hamlisch’s works.

As usual, the concert ended with a rendition of Sousa’s Stars and Stripes Forever and Auld Lang Syne.

It was a glorious musical feast to welcome in 2015...

Leadership Talk Features Woodward

ob Woodward, legendary investigative reporter and nonfiction author, speaks about “Presidential Leadership and the Price of Politics” on Friday, January 16, at noon in the Coral Casino at the Four Seasons Santa Barbara Biltmore.

Tickets to the luncheon, part of the Mosher Foundation’s series on Moral and Ethical Leadership in the American Presidency, cost $100 each and may be purchased online only at westmont.edu/leadershipseries/.

Woodward, a member of The Washington Post since 1971, has won nearly every American journalism award, and the Post won the 1973 Pulitzer Prize for his work with Carl Bernstein on the Watergate scandal. In addition, Woodward was the main reporter for the Post’s articles on the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks that won the National Affairs Pulitzer Prize in 2002. Woodward won the Gerald R. Ford Prize for Distinguished Reporting on the Presidency in 2003. The Weekly Standard called Woodward “the best pure reporter of his generation, perhaps ever.” In 2004, Bob Schieffer of CBS News said, “Woodward has established himself as the best reporter of our time. He may be the best reporter of all time.”

Woodward has authored or coauthored 16 nonfiction books in the last 36 years. All 16 have been national bestsellers, and 12 of them have been number-one national bestsellers.

Woodward’s most recent book, The Price of Politics, is an intimate, documented examination of how President Obama and the highest-profile Republican and Democratic leaders in the U.S. Congress attempted to restore the American economy and improve the federal government’s fiscal condition.

The leadership series features Doris Kearns Goodwin at the Westmont President’s Breakfast on March 6 and Ron White at Westmont on May 26.

which oversees the operations of the college. Mike Allen of Dallas, Helga Houston ’83 of Columbus, Ohio, and D. Verne Sharma of Pasadena began serving in October.

Allen, president of Providence Energy Corporation, and his wife, Melissa, have four children, including two Westmont alumni, Luke ’07 and William ’07. Mike says their Dallasbased family first heard of Westmont from friends whose children were attending. “They loved Westmont and encouraged us to come out and look at the college,” he says. “It’s exciting to be a part of Westmont’s unique blend of rigorous academics and Christian theology.” As a member of the board, Mike is interested in sharing his business knowledge and entrepreneurial ideas.

Houston, a chief risk officer for Huntington Bancshares, says attending Westmont fundamentally changed who she is. “I grew up in a Christian home, but it was the first time I had to put things together intellectually and spiritually, and decide who it is that I am and who I want to be,” she says. Houston, who has been on the Westmont Board of Advisors for four years, brings a wealth of business experience to the board of trustees. “I want to be engaged to find ways to use my education and business training in ways that are beneficial to the college,” she says.

Sharma, CEO, president and chairman of the board of Calhoun Vision, and his son, Matthew, who graduated from Westmont in 2011, were attract-

ed to Westmont’s Christian faith and rigorous academics. “This is a unique environment that combines young men and women who want to serve the Lord and live life a certain way with a quality education,” Sharma says. “Westmont is the best of both worlds.” He has lived in the U.S., Japan, and Asia for many years and is looking forward to using his business expertise to expand Westmont’s global mission. “I have a good understanding of the international environment to assist Westmont as it seeks to meet its global objectives,” he says.

“This is a great opportunity for me to be around like-minded, mature Christians, and to be involved in the governance of an important academic institution.”

President Welcomes Booker to Museum

President Gayle D. Beebe and provost Mark Nelson attended a private ceremony to welcome Chakaia Booker and her exhibition to the Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum of Art. Booker, who uses torn tires and twisted bands of steel radials to create sculpted works of art, openly fielded questions from about 100 guests during a free, public reception that followed.

The exhibit, which includes several of Booker’s prints, is open through Jan. 31. The museum is closed Sundays and college holidays. For more information, visit www.westmontmuseum. org or contact the museum at (805) 565-6162.

Chimney Talk

As a longtime reader of your newspaper, I was terribly disappointed in your columnist Jim Alexander’s disrespectful piece (“The 12 Days Of Christmas” MJ #20_49), and of your decision to publish it. I enjoy a chuckle over the holidays, but never at the expense of the sacred. Christmas, though it has lately been besieged by the politically correct potshots of a culture so enamored of “fairness” that it would have us believe this holiday has no special doctrinal value, is a time we, the chubby, should solemnly gather, don red velveteen, and work our way into whatever chimney is at hand and not filled with sparks and fire.

My group, Morbidly Obese Red Velveteen Enthusiasts Loving Velveteen Etc. (MORVELVET), is dedicated to the veneration of Kris Kringle, an historical personage with an arrest record as long as the distance between your average Wall Radiation Shield and Chimney Cap. We will not see Kris Kringle trashed in the name of a cheap laugh. Mr. Alexander, when you can say you have crammed your jumbo-ness down a vertical soot-smeared channel and, in a confusion of flying ash and grunting, emerged into the previously peaceable living room of a now-frantic gathering of four to 23 people (speaking from experience), then you may take his cheap shots at we who also go by the nom de guerre of Everlasting Lightbearer’s Foundation of True and Only Nativity-Guarding Underground Elves (ELFTONGUE).

Mr. Alexander and the velveteen-abjuring enablers who publish his hurtful tripe should feel great shame at having sullied the meaning and spirit of Christmas, and the occasional struggling foray of the clinically overweight down this or

that legally protected chimney.

How dare you, Alexander! (HDYA)!

Black on Black

Now let me see if I have this right.

The family situation is so unstable, “Junior” doesn’t even know where to send a Father’s Day card. There’s no guidance or discipline in the home.

Junior gets dumped into the education system where he is socially promoted because the overwhelmed school district can’t deal with the undisciplined whelp. Junior’s major formative influences are gangsta rap videos and a corresponding peer group of gangsta wannabes.

At age 18, Junior is turned loose on society carrying a bad attitude, a broken compass, and little respect for authority. Junior gets himself in big trouble with the law and meets dire consequences. Then, the situational diagnosis is that the police need more training and understanding?

Pardon me for asking, but do you really believe that bull?

In the aftermath of the recent ambush of two NYPD cops, we have been subjected to endless finger pointing at Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Mayor DeBlasio, Eric Holder, and President Obama himself for inflammatory rhetoric that pundits claim is responsible for creating the assassin’s mindset. No fingers have been pointed at the mainstream media (MSM) and the oligarchs that own them, which I believe deserve the bulk of the blame. It subjects the populace to an endless stream of misinformation and disinformation regarding racial crimes.

With that said however, isn’t it about time that the American black community pondered the link between these shooting events that they exploit, and their own wildly disproportionate criminal behavior?

No other racial or ethnic group in this nation is so thoroughly devoted to

killing one another, and yet they dare to hold up signs that read: “Black Lives Matter.” Apparently, black lives don’t matter to blacks, because blacks killing each other is about as routine as it gets; it is almost on a predictable timetable: in Newark and Jersey City, 99.9 percent of the annual killings are black on black, but very little is said about this appalling state of affairs – no banner headline admonishing blacks to stop killing one another.

Black leaders such as Sharpton won’t touch this issue for obvious reasons: they line their pockets by providing cover and comfort for black crime by blaming it on white culture. The hypocrisy here literally smacks you in the face.

If we want to play up the spate of police shootings of black men, let’s open up the dialogue to include the stunned silence on the part of otherwise vocal black leaders like Jackson and Sharpton when it comes to addressing the epidemic criminal dysfunction associated with black urban culture in America, and the routine buck-passing that invariably accompanies it.

In the decades following the civil-rights period, blacks—for the most part – have not only failed to establish a collective upward mobility, teaching the value of education and hard work, they have deteriorated

into an aggressively non-assimilative criminal sub-culture, subsisting on public entitlements, and blaming white culture for their inability to transcend their own economic exile.

The question that demands to be asked is to what extent black culture holds itself accountable for its present state, and those broad negative perceptions associated with it? I mean seriously: what substantive role does “the black community” play in self-determination? Does it surrender any meaningful initiatives to an inculcated “slave mentality” that attains wide currency as an excuse to dismiss any collective improvement in the social and economic conditions common to black culture in America today?

If we pose this irreducible question to the likes of Jackson or Sharpton, the routine deflection begins, and somehow – someway – whites are to blame for the determined savagery and casual decay of the black cultural landscape of our American cities.

The impulse to blame “whitey” for cross-generational dysfunction gradually reveals a transparent agenda.

streets hearing music all the time.”

If her philosophy for creating Sings Like Hell hasn’t changed over the years, neither has her criteria for booking the bands.

“It’s mostly my gut feeling. I look for a full set of original material that’s all good. That’s the most important thing. Then it’s about musicality. And I want them to be entertaining. It’s not a recording studio. They have to interact.

We have an audience that expects that connection.”

Indeed, subscriptions have hovered right around the 400-seat mark since early on in SLH’s history, meaning a whole lot of folks in this town trust Jones enough to just show up and see what she has in store this time.

It all begins again on Saturday with JackS--t founded by the power trio of Val McCallum, who is currently the guitarist in Jackson Browne’s band, drummer Pete Thomas, and bassist Davey Faragher, who have backed Elvis Costello for decades. We’re told at least one of their employers is expected to show up to jam on a few songs this time around (Browne played four songs last gig).

A special Valentine’s Day show brings two couples back to the Lobero stage, with Anne & Pete Sibley joining Guthrie and Irion. Olney, sporting a terrific new album that Jones said deserves wider exposure, plays March 21 with Howlin’ Brothers opening.

Gypsy rock band Beso (formerly Beso Negro) makes its Santa Barbara debut on April 25. The acts have yet to be determined for the May 23 date, before Sings Like Hell 36 comes to a close with the return of John Fullbright and longtime SLH veterans Kevin Welch and Dustin Welch, a show Jones has been putting together for more than 18 months.

You know what else hasn’t changed at Sings Like Hell? Ticket prices. The average cost of a new car has doubled since 1997, from just under $17,000 to more than $34,000 in 2014. But the six-concert series still goes for $150, just $25 per concert, and $30 on a single-ticket basis.

“I have very low overhead, I run it really tight, and I’m not greedy,” Jones explained. “The bands all play for a good price because they know I’ll do ‘em right. There’s no gig song and dance with the booking agents because the artists want to play the gig.”

Well, yeah. Hell yeah!

Hell and Back

S

ings Like Hell (SHL) launches Season 36 this Saturday night at the Lobero with a return engagement by JackS--t, a sort of sideman’s supergroup. By now we’ve taken for granted the subscription series that brings singer-songwriters, roots rock bands and Americana acts to the pristine theater in downtown Santa Barbara. But think back to the fall of 1997, when Peter Case became the first artist to perform under the banner – make that the Gates of Hell set pieces – of the series that took its name from his 1993 album.

The number-one song of the year was Elton John’s version of “Candle in the Wind” dedicated to Princess Diana.

Also in the Top 10: tracks by long-defunct Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls.

It was way before Twitter. Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg was a year away from starting high school. Heck, it was even years before MySpace, which nobody uses for anything anymore, not even music. People still bought CDs in actual brick-and-mortar record stores.

The original underground downloading program Napster wouldn’t kickoff the peer-to-peer revolution for another three years. iTunes didn’t even make its debut until 2001.

“That’s why I started it. That was the motivation,” interjected Peggie Jones, the impresario behind Sings Like Hell, who had previously hosted house concerts at her home in Santa Ynez. “There wasn’t any outlet for this kind of music at all. It wasn’t even on the radio.

Now there are Americana stations all the way across the country. But back then, great young bands couldn’t get

a gig, much less a good one. All they could do was play house concerts or noisy bars. There were so many great singer-songwriters who were getting passed by and had no exposure.”

Now, although the list of acts that have played Sings Like Hell has grown to several hundred and contains lots of familiar names – from Jackson Browne to Patty Griffin – you still might not recognize many of the performers, and more than likely haven’t heard of several who are on the roster for the upcoming season. Balancing out returnees David Olney and Sara Lee Guthrie & Jonny Irion are newcomers Beso and The Howlin’ Brothers.

The ever-expanding roster comes courtesy of the continuing commitment of Jones, who more than a decade ago moved to Austin, the music mecca of Texas. She’s out hearing music four nights each week, usually dropping by three or four venues each evening, and catching, by her own count, between 20-30 sets of music per week. Do the math: that’s a minimum of 1,000 a year, just to bring us fewer than 25 of them over the course of a two-series year.

“That’s what keeps (Sings Like Hell) astoundingly original,” Jones explained. “It’s because I’m out on the

Other than the fact that it’s a bit of a departure from the usual fare of historical dramas, it’s little surprise that DIJO Productions is kicking off its 2015 season with Donald Margulies’s Brooklyn Boy. After all, Jerry Oshinsky, the Montecito-based attorney-actor-producer who is the

principal in the company, grew up back in New York. So this show from the playwright who gave us Sight Unseen and won the Pulitzer Prize for Dinner With Friends is perhaps almost a trip down memory lane.

Particularly because Brooklyn Boy tells the story of a critically acclaimed but commercially challenged author who suddenly strikes it big with a semi-autobiographical novel about growing up in the borough. As the play progresses, he has to deal with not only celebrity and fortune, but also an ailing but still disapproving father, the wife he’s getting divorced from who is expecting a date, the actor set to play him in the movie version, a young groupie fan and a neurotic movie producer. Frequent DIJO/Virtual Theater Co player Ed Giron – who portrayed Freud in Freud’s Last Session, and Nixon in Frost /Nixon – plays the writer, while Oshinsky portrays his father. William Waxman, writer/director of The Coot Elimination Committee and Fighting the Invisible, directs the production, which runs January 8-18 at Plaza Playhouse Theater in Carpinteria.

Waxman talked about the play over the phone last weekend.

Q. How will Santa Barbara relate to its setting?

A. I think it’s going to strike a lot of familiar chords with people. We see all of the people in his life through him – the ones who have impacted how he became what he is, and on the other hand his desire to leave all of that, and them, behind. But in the process he discovers you can’t do that, you can’t completely escape from who you were, nor can you go all the way home to where you’ve been. So people will recognize things in those characters.

You don’t even have to be familiar with Brooklyn at all to identify with the trials and tribulations.

As you say, the play contains serious themes about embracing middle age, and existential problems. How does it get there still being lighthearted and fun?

There’s a lot of give and take in the way the scenes are designed. The central character is just an average guy 8 – 15 January 2015

who happens to be a talented writer. So his problems are the same as the rest of us. He has a strained relationship with his soon-to-be ex-wife. A father whose approval he never got in the way he wanted. A best friend who he has more or less forgotten. The laughter and poignancy emerges out of examining those relationships. They’re done in very short scenes – six in the show.

Each one is not more than 20-23 minutes. So they’re little vignettes of the people and situations that make up his life. The interactions are marvelous. It’s like opening a window into the guy’s life. It’s very revealing.

Is this something you also relate to?

It’s more an artistic challenge than a personal one. One of the difficulties in making the script work is that there’s an awful lot that happens within the short scenes. You have to be very cognizant of when a scene is shifting its tactic and emotions. My job is to guide the actors, so that all of the stuff jammed into the scenes becomes fresh and new and vital and not repetitive.

That’s the work on my part: to break the scenes into their components and guide the actors between the stepping stones so the audience can get a grasp on the situations.

A little devil’s advocate here: while they liked the play, some of the critics said it didn’t go far enough. The New York Times wrote that Brooklyn Boy didn’t do “what first-rate plays must do and what Mr. Margulies has achieved repeatedly before: it does not make the familiar seem fresh.” I’m guessing you don’t agree.

The themes the shows addresses are universal. Sometimes, it’s not so much that you’re making a brandnew discovery or treating a theme in an unusual way. Here, it’s more about humanizing the themes. That’s its strength. What the central character goes thorough is very human.

People are going to empathize and sympathize. So you don’t walk away thinking this was something you’ve

never seen before. But hopefully you think that it really well done. In the movies, there are stories from time immemorial but we still write about it, think about it, ruminate on it, and it still affects us. To me, this show is like that. You can get swept up for a little while. Identify with it and yet still be entertained. If we can pull of that duality, I’ll count it as a success.

It featured a carriage, festooned with $12,000 worth of roses, pulled by four beautifully groomed Belgian draft horses that carried the wedding party along the five-and-a-half-mile route, while Spanish dancers, dressed in white and wearing colorful shawls, circled the float.

El Presidente Cas Stimson, who hails from Pasadena, says: “It was cold, but very exciting. It is difficult to get in the parade. More than 90 organizations applied, but only 17 got the green light to participate.”

After the group was seen by millions on television, Cas threw a reception at the oh-so tony Valley Hunt Club, which founded the Tournament of Roses in 1890, inspired by a flower festival in Nice, France.

patron Marie Morrisroe, who had the idea to establish a Technology Fund to help the library keep up with changing technology. The first purchases from this fund were a laptop computer to be used for library classes and presentations, and an iPad mini to take photos during library events and to use as a tool to teach patrons about apps that the library uses, including OverDrive, Zinio, and Freegal.

“Over the last twenty years since she’s lived here, Marie has come to appreciate the Montecito Library as a wonderful resource that everyone in the community should benefit from,” said FOML treasurer Judi Anderson, who showed us additional upgrades, including a new automatic check-out machine, bookshelves to hold new books displaced by the machine, and a new central table outfitted with upgraded computer ports, wiring, and Wi-Fi to replace several old tables of various heights and sizes. The fund also paid for a disk resurfacing machine; seven new computers are also on order.

One third of Montecito Library’s operating budget comes from the county of Santa Barbara; one third comes from the Friends of the Montecito Library, and the other third comes from a trust (which the City of Santa Barbara administers) made up of bequests to the library. In 2008, this fund equaled more than $400,000, but since county funding has dwindled and state money has disappeared, this money has been used to make up the difference, Anderson tells us. The funds remaining in this bequest will be completely spent in 2015, leaving approximately $80,000 that must be obtained from private donations in order to keep the library open six days a week and maintain the current level of services. The Friends have been supplementing donations with reserve funds to keep the library open, as well as buy new books, DVDs, and audio books for adults and children. “We also fund the salaries for two part-time employees • The Voice of the Village •

and finance needed improvements to the library, such as furniture and lighting,” Anderson said.

The Friends of the Montecito Library has a board of 15, with 500 newsletter subscribers. Many of the Friends volunteer at the library, including Anderson, who spends her spare time fixing books and resurfacing audio books and DVDs. A new Friends’ Recognition Wall has been added to the library, featuring a plaque for the founders of the group, as well as emeritus board members.

To learn more about Friends of the Montecito Library, visit montecitoli braryfriends.org. The library is located at 1469 East Valley Road.

Land Use Committee Discusses Miramar

At a contentious meeting on Tuesday, January 6, members of the public argued with each other and the Montecito Association’s Land Use Committee regarding the Miramar project. The meeting was to give the public the opportunity to weigh in on the changes to the project that were heard at the Montecito Planning Commission (MPC) hearing in December, at which time the MPC continued the project until a hearing on Wednesday, January 21.

“It’s important for the community to understand the changes, and weigh in on them,” said Land Use chair Tom Bollay.

Caruso Affiliated rep Rick Lemmo was at the hearing, disputing some neighbors’ sentiments that the parking for the newest version of the project is inadequate. “The same people who conducted the studies on our approved plan also conducted the studies on the new plan. These are reputable people,” Lemmo said to the standing-room-only crowd, referring to the two previous project approvals developer Rick Caruso holds for property. “The bottom line is this project is dramatically less impactful than the prior plan,” he said.

A few members of the public brought up continued parking issues, including an attorney who represents a neighbor who tried to have the December MPC hearing rescheduled after voicing concern over parking, traffic circulation, water availability, water usage, hotel employee counts, CEQA compliance, and other issues.

Neighbor Candice Buergey said, “Most of you don’t live in the area. It shouldn’t be the responsibility of the neighbors to accommodate a lack of parking in our neighborhoods.”

Other attendees, including former MA presidents Dick Nordlund and Dave Kent, spoke in support of the project and questioned the committee

the site of Gamache’s afternoon visits with his friend Émile while they discuss separatists and murder over French onion soup and whisky in the famous round bar of the turret.

The Citadelle

Finding the famed bar roped off, we returned to the promenade along the cliffs and ascended the seemingly endless path of stairs to the Citadelle, whose construction began in 1820 though the site had been a fortification much earlier. The Citadelle is a star-shaped fort and an active military facility to this day. It is the ceremonial home of the Royal 22nd Regiment, the only French-speaking battalion in the British Army. The regiment was born during WWI, and its men performed feats of incredible valor and served with distinction on behalf of the allies. In a Canada where the Province of Ontario was preparing to outlaw teaching in French and the study of French in the school systems, the success of the Royal 22nd Regiment became a counterforce to such policies.

The guided tour of the Citadelle was fascinating, though I was surprised that, according to the patriotic guide, in the entire history of the site, the French have never lost a battle.

Looking east over the walls, one sees the undulating grassy park that was once the fields of the farmer Abraham Martin where a momentous battle occurred between the English and the French. The French, English, and their Indian allies battled it out in Canada throughout colonial days, each determined to have dominion over the fur

trade and the territory. During the last of these wars, known as the French and Indian War (or Seven Years War), General James Wolfe laid siege to the city of Québec for three months and then defeated the Canadian militia commanded by Marquis de Montcalm in 1859. Though both generals died from wounds received in battle, the English victory proved pivotal. Four years later, the French ceded most of their possessions in eastern North America to Great Britain.

For Inspector Gamache, who is visiting Québec in winter, the Fields of Abraham at three in the morning are covered with snow as he bundles up to walk his dog Henri and to encounter a murderer. For us, the late-summer tree-studded lawns were inviting, but we returned to the city via Port St. Louis and continued our exploration.

Québec is a city that celebrates gastronomy as a multitude of interesting restaurants attest. Alas, our late arrival on the first night had us dining at a more plebian place, the premier fastfood establishment of Canada, Tim Hortons (recently acquired by Burger King, much to the Québécois’ dismay).

Historic Sites

As we walked the streets of the walled town, we stopped to peruse the menus posted on the walls until we reached the Basilica-Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Québec. The institution is 350 years old, and the Vatican has allowed it to create a holy door to celebrate its anniversary.

murder of the infamous Champlain hunter, whose body was found in the basement of the Literary & Historical Society of Québec. Known as Morrin College, it is a real place and as difficult to find as Louise Penny indicates.

It is also the only English language library left in Québec. Best of all, it offers tours!

Constructed between 1808 and 1814, it was the first prison in Canada to incorporate the ideas of John Howard, a British reformer who believed that prison should rehabilitate criminals.

As we descended to the dark and dank cells in the basement, it was difficult to see how this could be accomplished. By 1861, the prison was overflowing despite a high rate of escapism and public hangings from the balcony over the front door that culled the population. After a new prison was built across the street and the hangman’s balcony was removed, the building served as a school before settling in to its present use, the headquarters of the Literary and Historical Society of Québec.

I think what we enjoyed most about Québec, however, was wandering and exploring; finding little treasures of architecture and charming sidewalk cafés where we could rest our feet and enjoy a glass of wine, always accompanied by music. The streets of Québec simply resonate with sound and color and history, and it was with reluctance that we said our goodbyes.

Au revoir, Québec, the night is indeed a strawberry.

Play Time for Prominent Producer

Steve Binder in action on the set directing the Elvis Comeback Special, as it became known. This shot is one of the first big production numbers staged. Priscilla Presley said of that show, “It was time for Elvis to do something in a big way. Steve Binder came at that right time. And magic happened.” (Photo courtesy Steve Binder)

F

Producer, director, and writer Steve Binder in his office during an interview for the Journal

or Elvis fans everywhere, his Comeback TV special in 1968 was an epic welcome home. The man behind the scenes making it happen is Emmy-winning producer, director, and writer Steve Binder. Understanding the importance of Elvis in the history of rock ‘n’ roll, and to help the Plaza Playhouse Theater in Carpinteria fundraise for a new movie screen, he is showing the entire uncut Elvis special with unseen footage and a down-home live talk on Saturday, January 10, at the Plaza Playhouse Theater, just two days after Elvis’s 80th birthday.

Binder’s place in the history of television and films as a renowned producer, director, and music maker reads like a college symposium on the critical elements of a true professional in the industry. The talent behind the talent, he is best known for the 1964 concert film The T.A.M.I. Show with the Wrecking Crew as the house band from which future music concert films and MTV were based.

Noted credits are Hullaballlo, which featured some of the most popular pop/rock acts of the 1960s, Diana Ross in Concert, The Petula Clark Special with Harry Belafonte Special – the first interracial TV broadcast and forever changing the course of Elvis’s career

with his TV Comeback Special in 1968.

Binder’s awards include an Emmy, an Ace Award, Director of the Year from the Caucus of Television Producers/ Writers/Directors 2008, an Edi Award and 2012 recipient of the Diamond Circle Award from the Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters.

Here is my exclusive interview with Steve, held at his office filled with memorabilia of his stunning career: Q: Initially, you said no to producing the Elvis special, as you were not an Elvis fan. How did it come about that you did it?

A: A few days after the Petula Clark TV Special in April 1968, I received a call from producer Bob Finkle about it.

He told me that the controversy about the Petula Special (Petula touched Harry Belafonte’s arm), and that I was such a rebel in the biz, would make me a good fit for Elvis Presley. Tom Sarnoff, West Coast NBC VP, had worked out a deal with Elvis’s manager Colonel Tom Parker to do a TV special; however, Bob was having a hard time getting Elvis to commit to TV and thought since I was closer to Elvis’s age he would relate better to me. I told Bob I would think about it. My partner, record producer Bones Howe, told me I’d be crazy to

Lymphatic Therapy Reduce swelling, boost your immune system and increase your body's ability to filter out toxins with Lymphatic Therapy

turn down Elvis and said Elvis and I would make a great combination. So I asked to have a meeting with Elvis alone and if we hit it off, I’d do it. I was actually transitioning from TV to film.

I first met with Bob and he offered me the job.

We then met with Colonel Parker, who wanted Elvis’s show to be a Christmas Special, had written the script and a really bad contract that, for example, didn’t include residuals. The next meeting was with Elvis, Bones, and myself, as the Colonel had showed up late. At the meeting, Elvis asked me where I thought his career was at now, and I chided, “In the toilet.” Elvis respected my honesty. We both knew the risk: he could either tank or re-establish his career as The King of rock ‘n’ roll in present time.

Elvis mentioned he liked the music of today, especially The Beatles’s music and what they had to say. He shared he was nervous on TV, only felt comfortable in a recording studio. So I told him that if we worked together, he could focus on making records and I would put pictures to his music tailoring it only for Elvis, and I had no intentions of doing a Christmas special. At our next meeting, Elvis signed on to do the special I pitched, requesting only that his music conductor and arranger Billy Strange be on board. I got my team together and we designed a program to move the audience the way a great dramatic film tells a personal story we can all relate to, and in Elvis’s case, his per-

You are known to have made history in producing TV music specials, allowing musicians to feel free on how to perform, and in the case of Elvis, be the first special that featured only one musician. What inspired you to help show musicians in this new frame?

In my next life, I’m going to be a musician! (laughing) I did study piano when I was young, but knew it wasn’t where I was going. I love music and as a kid used to listen to music in my car radio, a 1946 Ford convertible. I thought, if it can sound good in a car, it should sound just as good or better through a TV set.

At the time, no one in TV paid any attention to sound; back then the music industry, the film industry and the TV industry didn’t mix. I thought differently – music and TV could work together, and started it with Hullaballlo, the Leslie Uggams Special, and Nancy Sinatra’s “Boots” Special.

I am dedicated to making and keeping good music good, and respectfully the musicians. It’s not about the money or fame for me, it’s about doing the best I can for the artist and how people feel when they watch the show. I do a special for an artist with their music custom-made. I never compromised myself and was willing to get fired for what I was creating.

up for yourself, and they take a chance on what you’re doing.

Tell us about your decision to add a full orchestra to the Elvis special?

It started with Elvis’s music conductor/arranger Billy Strange not showing up nor delivering any arrangements. We had to fire him and I hired Billy Goldenburg from N.Y. whom I worked with before. Billy, a classically trained Broadway composer/conductor/arranger didn’t want to do it. I begged, he came, and they hit it off.

Turns out, Elvis loved to play classical music on the piano, his favorite being Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata; however, he wouldn’t let the guys know, as they would think its a sign of weakness. We set up the pre-recorded music sessions at Western Recorders Studios on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood. I selected the top 35 musicians on the West Coast, most from the Wrecking Crew, like Tommy Tedesco, Hal Blaine, and Don Randi. Elvis panicked and took me outside, he had only ever recorded with a rhythm section! I promised him if he gave it a try and didn’t like it, I’d send all the musicians home except for the rhythm section. Elvis and the orchestra took off and the rest is history.

What are you working on now?

My current project is SING!, a new Broadway musical and my partners are Franne Golde and Bob Garrett.

Where do you think music is heading?

I feel strongly that until the music industry in general sorts itself out, artists will still continue to break new barriers by using the Internet to reach their audiences and performing their material live, either through their own abilities as musician and singers, or through surrogate singers who perform their material. Every new genMontJournal_January7th'15:Layout 1 eration brings something new to the

table, so it stays fresh and alive. Every generation has its share of real artists and poets, like Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen even though they’re few in numbers.

The “industry” after all is just like every other industry. It’s in the business to make money while the real artists do what they do for the love and art itself simply because... they have to!

I think that in all cases, without the combination of the artist and the industry joining forces, we’d never know hardly any of our music heroes without the money to promote and advertise the unknown, struggling artist coming from the industry.

Success to me for any artist is based on 1. talent, 2. timing and 3. luck! All three are equally important for the general public to ever know the artist even exists.

Behind every famous music artist, there’s a story of struggle I assure you. I am responsible for discovering a few artists myself like Seals & Crofts and Rick Springfield just to name a few. Each has their unique, individual stories before they broke through to become household names. Evaluating talent is totally subjective in the eyes of the beholder and until an artist breaks through with a hit song or recording, the general public doesn’t pay any attention on a national or international level.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 9 Number One in 2015? – The UCSB Asics Invitational, an annual men’s volleyball tournament – which went by the sponsoring title of Elephant Bar before the chain closed up shop at its location near the airport a few years ago – has kicked off the team’s season for more than half a century. The format has morphed over the years from a huge 32-team field that involved just about every top-ranked squad in the nation and then some to a narrower eight-team field that isn’t really a tournament at all, as the match-ups, while still three games per team, have been predetermined rather than created by results.

But it’s still a great way to catch the local boys – who return a number of starters and have been ranked as high as number four in the preseason – in action against three formidable east-of-the-Mississippi teams who never make it out here during the regular season: IPFW (Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne), Princeton, and Limestone.

Perennial powers UCLA, Long Beach State, and Cal State Northridge, as well as St. Francis round out the field.

All teams are in action with simultaneous matches today at 10 am and 7 pm, followed by four sequential

games beginning at 10:30 am and ending with USCB-IPFW at 6:30 pm.

WHERE: UCSB’s Rob Gym and the Thunderdome COST: $15-$30 INFO: 893-3292 or www.ucsbgauchos.com/ sports/m-volley SATURDAY, JANUARY 10 Above the Sound – The Ebola scare seems to have passed in the United States, at least for the time being, but the virus is still raging out of control on the other side of the world in East Africa, and some Santa Barbara bands are doing their part to fight the dreaded disease.

Cornerstone, the reggae outfit that celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2015, its conscious roots becoming increasingly urban along the way, headlines the benefit concert alongside GrooveShine, the sizable collective that combines funk, reggae, and hiphop rhythms with a singer-songwriter acoustic approach. More sweet and soulful reggae comes courtesy of One Two Three, some of whose members do double duty touring with superstars Black Uhuru. Also on the bill: 20-year veteran Santa Barbara jazz guitarist Ben Wilmore and his trio, and VAMP, a San Diego-based hard-edged soul-steeped rock and roll

FRIDAY, JANUARY 9 All-Women Mariachi – Flor de Toloache, New York’s first and finest all-female mariachi ensemble, kick off the second half of the ¡Viva el Arte de Santa Bárbara! season with a series of concerts and workshops this weekend. The dozen members of Flor de Toloache reflect the dirversity of New York City and the wider world of mariachi music in the 21st century, as the musicians’ heritage can be traced back to Germany, Egypt, Cuba, Singapore, Ireland, Columbia, Argentina, and the Dominican Republic as well as, of course, Mexico, mariachi’s birthplace. Co-founder Mireya Ramos grew up in Puerto Rico, where she followed her father’s mariachi performances and learned songs from his recordings. Co-founder Shae Fiol, who is half Cuban, grew up in Oregon, and learned vihuela and mariachi traditions after beginning her career in soul music. Named for a poisonous flower associated with love potions in Central America, Mariachi Flor de Toloache take their New York base as a license to experiment, infusing their music with a variety of melodic and rhythmic ideas, drawn from their own backyard and around the world. Their programs can feature Mexican classics such as La Negra, El Cascabel, and sing-along favorite, El Rey; jazz standards; Brazilian classics; and even Outkast riffs, much of which shows up on their debut recording, released just last month. As with all ¡Viva el Arte de Santa Bárbara!, the group will play three concerts – at Isla Vista School tonight at 7, Guadalupe City Hall tomorrow at 7:30 pm, and the Marjorie Luke Theater at Santa Barbara Junior High on Sunday at 7 pm.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 11 Spirit of the Wild – It wouldn’t be entirely accurate to say wildlife photojournalist Paul Nicklen was born into his profession, but he was at least exposed to what has been his life’s passion from an early age.

Nicklen spent his childhood in an isolated Inuit community in the Canadian Arctic, which prepared him well for his career photographing extreme environments. The recipient of more than 30 international awards for photography and promoting wildlife conservation, Nicklen excels at capturing what many consider the finest images of the world’s most remote places. He routinely spends months braving extreme conditions to take unforgettable images of creatures most of us see only in zoos or aquariums, if at all. He has traveled deep into the forests of British Columbia to track the ghostly and elusive spirit bear, and has gone face-toface under Arctic ice with emperor penguins, polar bears, and walruses.

He’s taken on topics as diverse as an ancient Mayan cenote (limestone sinkhole) in Yucatan, and the surfing subculture of native Hawaiians – the thread among them is his commitment to seeking out the wilderness spirit that connects us to nature. Nicklin’s multimedia presentation “Spirit of the Wild” – presented as part of the National Geographic Live series – takes its title from his most recent book. WHEN: 3 pm WHERE: UCSB’s Campbell Hall COST: $25 general, $15 youths 18 & under INFO: 893-3535 or www.ArtsAndLectures.UCSB.edu band. All the proceeds will be donated to Santa Barbara-based Direct Relief International’s West Africa Fund.

WHEN: 7 pm WHERE: SOhO, 1221 State Street, upstairs in Victoria Court COST: $12 INFO: 962-7776 or www. sohosb.com Beethoven & Franck – Santa Barbara Music Club gets things going in 2015 with a performance of two major masterpieces for violin and piano in its first concert of the free series this year. Violinist Han Soo Kim and pianist Neil Di Maggio take on Beethoven’s early period masterpiece, the Sonata No. 4 in A minor, Op. 23, which exhibits the composer’s remarkable divergence from previous sonata traditions – innovations such as beginning with a dramatic Presto in 6/8 meter for which Beethoven was so proud, and for which he was so roundly criticized by his contemporaries. The program concludes with Franck’s Sonata in A major interpreted by violinist Nicole McKenzie and pianist Betty Oberacker. The work – full of harmonic richness, compelling dramatic intensity, and lyrical beauty – was composed as a wedding present for the then young violin virtuoso Eugene Ysaÿe.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 11 Acrobats at it Again – The Peking Acrobats come to town nearly every year around this time, but this is one of those shows you can see on a regular basis and never fail to be thrilled, entertained, and amazed.

That’s partly because the troupe brings new acts with each tour, rotating through the favorites and introducing new artists. But it’s mostly due to the fact that the group is simply among the best of its kind, culling its performers – gymnasts, jugglers, cyclists, and tumblers – from the finest acrobat schools in China. They all are highly skilled at transforming the 2,000-year-old athletic disciplines into family-friendly feats that almost always astound, complete with a live Chinese orchestra. WHEN: 3 pm WHERE: Granada Theatre, 1214 State Street COST: $23-$66 INFO: 8992222 or www.granadasb.org Barbara’s Back – It was just last January that the Santa Barbara Jazz Society brought the great jazz singer Barbara Morrison to town as its guest artist for the monthly concert-meeting at SOhO on a Sunday afternoon.

Now, exactly 52 weeks later, the L.A.based vocalist is returning to the venue for a similar engagement, adding just one more feather to her 40-plus year career. The Detroit-raised Morrison eschewed Motown for jazz and blues back when she moved to Los Angeles 8 – 15 January 2015

SUNDAY, JANUARY 11 Boffo Bassoon – William Wood commemorates 40 years of bassoon playing in a special concert where he’ll be joined by friends and colleagues both old and new. Wood, who attended Saint Olaf College (where he studied with Benjamin Kamins, familiar locally as a veteran faculty member of the Music Academy of the West), has worked extensively as a freelance bassoonist in the greater Los Angeles area since 1984, and is currently a member of the New West Symphony, Los Angeles Master Chorale Sinfonia Orchestra, and Riverside Philharmonic.

He regularly performs with the LA Opera Orchestra and has appeared with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, Pasadena Symphony, and the LA Chamber Orchestra. For today’s celebratory concert, Wood will perform alongside Thomas Joyce, minister of keyboard music at Trinity; Duncan Massey, principal bassoonist of the New West Symphony; and vocalists Kate Wallace and Doug Clegg, founders of Trinity Backstage Coffeehouse. The eclectic program of works covers Wood’s career and spans classical, folk, blues, and more, including pieces for solo bassoon and keyboard, bassoon and voice, and bassoon duo by W.A. Mozart, Igor Stravinsky, Antonio Vivaldi, Bill Douglas, Francisco Mignone, Walllace & Clegg, plus and a world premiere Sonatine for bassoon and piano by Craig Phillips. WHEN: 3:30 pm WHERE: Trinity Episcopal Church, 1500 State Street COST: free (donations accepted) INFO: 965-7419 or www.trinitysb.org at 21, and along the way she sang with a veritable Who’s Who of jazz, from Dizzy Gillespie, Count Basie, and Kenny Burrell to Ray Charles, Etta James, and Mel Tormé. Morrison also earned Grammy nominations in 1982 for vocals on You’re Driving Me Crazy with Johnny Otis’s The Spirit of Black Territory Band and in 1999 for producing a jazz album for Al McKibbon.

In recent years, she has been running her own theater, the Barbara Morrison Performing Arts Center, when she’s not up on stage herself playing with Jack

Hale, a guitarist/arranger who favors swing styles from the 1920s-50s. This time, though, Morrison will appear with Richard Simon, Paul Kreibich, and Ian Bernard – and she’s toting a brand new 2015 Grammy nomination – her first in 16 years – this time for best large jazz ensemble album.

WHEN: 1-4 pm WHERE: SOhO, 1221 State Street, upstairs in Victoria Court COST: $25 general, $15 SBJS members, $7 students and SBJS member musicians INFO: 962-7776, www. sohosb.com or www.sbjazz.org •MJ

Tackling Jazz – Playing football – outside linebacker – at a state university isn’t the typical path to stardom in the music industry. But fortunately, Gregory Porter’s road began in Bakersfield, where his mother was a minister partial to both gospel as well as Nat King Cole, both of which influenced the young singer.

Porter began singing in small jazz clubs in San Diego while attending San Diego State University on a football scholarship before moving into music full time, after which things happened quickly. He caught the attention of flutist Herbert Laws, who put him on an album, and Laws’ sister Eloise, who helped him get cast in a leading role in the Broadway-bound It Ain’t Nothin’ But the Blues. Settling in Brooklyn, Porter burst onto the jazz scene itself just five years ago when Wynton Marsalis asked him to perform with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Soon after, he was dubbed “the next great male jazz singer” by NPR. He released his debut album Water in 2010, garnering a Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album, while the follow-up, 2012’s Be Good, received a nod for Best Traditional R&B Performance. The New York Times has praised him as “a jazz singer of thrilling presence, a booming baritone with a gift for earthy refinement and soaring uplift.” Last year, his third LP, Liquid Spirit, – brimming with his own compositions that boast hook-filled melodies and examine such subjects as the highs and lows of romance, his childhood, and socio-political observations – won the 2014 Grammy for Best Vocal Jazz Album. Now, he’s making his debut in Santa Barbara – just a couple of hundred miles from his childhood home – to inaugurate UCSB Arts & Lectures’ Jazz Series for 2015.

MISCELLANY (Continued from page 26)

The 10 dancers, led by 2009 Spirit of Fiesta Daniela Zermeno, whose feet were suitably bruised and blistered after completing the route, also took time out to make an entertaining two-minute video of Taylor Swift’s song “Shake It Off” that has been getting hundreds of hits.

A blooming good show all round....

Read All About It Bibliophile Mahri Kerley is a survivor.

As book shops across the nation close their doors, including Borders

and Barnes & Noble here, Mahri’s tome temple, Chaucer’s, in Loreto Plaza goes from strength to strength and is now celebrating 40 years in business, stocking an astounding 150,000 copies of books of every variety in her 6,500-square-foot store.

“We actually have more titles available than the bigger shops,” she boasts.

Starting with a 800-square-foot book “boutique” in Five Points in 1974, Mahri, a board member of the Santa Barbara Chamber Orchestra, moved to Loreto Plaza in 1982 before transitioning to its current location the following year and expanding to its current size in 1990.

“When I started, I borrowed money on my life insurance to keep going,” she admits. “I then moved to a dress store in Loreto Plaza and paid the owner to move out. Where we are now was a hairdressers with 4,500 square feet, and we expanded to our current size fifteen years ago.

“I really don’t understand why there aren’t more stores like ours. This is a very unique town, and the community really supports us.”

Chaucer’s has 23 full-time knowledgeable staff, all of whom get 100 percent heath insurance.

A wonderful success story against the odds...

Galvin-izing Gala Santa Barbara event planner Pamela Galvin organizes dozens of parties each year, but for New Year’s Eve she decided to host her own bash for friends and business associates at Fess Parker’s Doubletree.

Galvin, whose clients have included Antioch University, the Ensemble Theatre, and the Pierre Claeyssens military ball, had more than 70 guests at her bustling beano, including designer Lisa Carter, John and Sherine Leenhouwers, Jeff and Jessica Miller, Ted and Paige Kuipers, Paul and Melissa Musgrove, Michael and Marilyn Romo, Mercedes Trump, and Brandon Tallman.

After being welcomed at a champagne bar with a charcuterie display, invitees were entertained in the illuminated terrace lounge, with sequined

and silk draperies and glittering stars hanging from the rafters.

The partying to the music quartet, Funker and A Cool, wrapped five hours after the midnight hour.

VILLAGE BEAT (Continued from page 28)

for holding the meeting in the first place, given both the committee and the MA board previously voted to endorse the project back in November.

“It’s an embarrassment to the association to keep doing this,” Nordlund said. “It’s time to accept the fact that we are not going to get a better project. We are going to look pretty silly if we open this up again,” Kent added.

Two other audience members, Pete Jordano and Wayne Siemens, shared the same sentiment: that further delay may chase Caruso away.

The newest proposal (being dubbed the 2014 plan) reduces the number of parking spaces from 494 to 436, according to the Caruso team. The loss is due to a reconfiguration of the parking lots, and the removal of the underground parking garage that was planned on site. Lemmo told the audience that there has always been a “plan b” for parking, which is included in both versions of the approved plans. “The planning commission has already solved what we thought might be potential problems,” Lemmo said.

He explained that the conditions of approval prohibit increasing beach club membership if there are any parking complaints, and that the reduction of the maximum number of people at events from 500 to 400 further mitigates the loss in parking. In addition, per the current CUP (conditional use permit), the team -- which plans on overseeing the management and operation of the hotel -- will have an extensive parking plan in place, including decals for staff vehicles, valet service for the majority of guests, and the requirement that day-use guests park on site.

Lemmo went on to say that there have been six complaints by neighbors about the 2014 plan, and more than 90 letters of support for the project.

The MPC hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, January 21.

In Passing: Joseph S. Scher

(Editor’s note: the following was submitted to the Journal by Mark Scher.)

Mr. Joseph Scher, born in Chicago on October 19, 1924, attended the University of Illinois before being drafted into service as a cryptographer in the South Pacific during WWII. He returned and finished his college education at the University of Illinois on the GI bill while filling in with some classes at Northwestern University, where he met his wife, Eleanor (19261991), and mother of his four children.

Ele and Joe relocated to Santa Barbara in 1980.

When Ele passed away unexpectedly, he married his dear friend of more than 40 years, Lila, who spent the last 22 years with him enjoying a wonder8 – 15 January 2015

ful life of travel, love and fun.

After a few tries striking out on his own, and in need of a job, he began work as a paint salesman with the Enterprise Paint Company. He singlehandedly created paint departments in large chain department stores that had never conceived of selling paint. He convinced Macy’s, JCPenny, Lazarus Dept. Stores (became Federated) among many others that they could add a new revenue source by selling paint in their stores.

For more than 30 years, he grew the Enterprise Companies from a small fledgling paint manufacturing company on the South Side of Chicago to a major industry competitor with multiple lines under multiple labels, both private and proprietary. He served as president of the company for 10 years until the company was sold to the International Silver Company.

Mr. Scher then struck out on his own and bought a string of manufacturing companies in the advertising specialty industry, as well as a chain of discount eyeglass stores. He also became a partner with his son Mark in the commercial real estate business, developing and acquiring more than 3 million square feet across the Western United States.

Mr. Scher was a philanthropic force in the Chicago and Santa Barbara communities, as well as other major charitable endeavors. In Chicago, he served as president of the Chicago Chapter of the American Jewish Committee and as a Director of the Birchwood Club.

In Santa Barbara, he served as president of the Santa Barbara City College Foundation, served on the Board of the Santa Barbara Jewish Federation for 18 years, and during that time served as president setting new fundraising records for the organization.

He also took on the presidency of the Board of Camerata, the Santa Barbara Chamber Music Foundation, and served as a director of Speaking of Stories while donating generously to The Music Academy of the West, the Hillel Foundation, and many other worthy organizations.

He was a founding member of The Scleroderma Research Foundation, along with his late daughter-in-law, Sharon Monsky, who suffered from this progressive, debilitating disease.

He served on the board of directors and was a major financial supporter of the Foundation for more than 15 years.

Mr. Scher was a long-time member of The Birchwood Club and Northmoor Country Club in Highland Park, Illinois, as well as a long-time member of La Cumbre Country Club in Santa Barbara, and the Birnam Wood Country Club in Montecito.

Mr. Scher leaves his wife, Lila; his four children, Marilyn HabermasScher (Donald, Minneapolis,

Making the Universe Right

Longtime Montecito resident Barry Kitnick has a private collection of intriguing items, mostly from Vietnam, that he’s about to donate to UCSB. Before he does, he has arranged for an exhibition of every one of the artifacts he has collected, made by members of the Yao minority and other cultures from north Vietnam and southern China.

Barry has put this collection together over the course of a dozen years and when he realized he had something unique, began to look for an academic to help him archive the collection. After a two-year search, he found Trian Nguyen, an ordained Buddhist monk who had lived in a monastery in Vietnam until he left that country in the mid-1980s. When Nguyen finally made it to the United States, he attended San Francisco State on a scholarship and then went to Harvard School of Divinity, receiving an M.A., and earned a PhD in art history at Berkeley. Nguyen is an associate professor of art and visual cultures at Bates College in Lewiston, Maine; Barry met him via the internet.

The collection represents some 2,500 years of a now-dying culture. “Most young [people] don’t want to be shamans or farmers,” Barry explains

during a conversation at the Coffee Bean on Coast Village Road.

“The people who made these artifacts,” Barry continues, “were a Chinese minority who separated themselves from the Chinese and eventually went over the mountains to Vietnam. They had their own culture, their own religion; they were outsiders.”

Nguyen will give a talk on Friday, January 16, at 3:30 pm at the UCSB Art, Design & Architecture Museum, located just in front of Stork Tower on campus, whereupon the collection will be open for public display in the main gallery; in one of the three side galleries, there will be a complete Yao Shaman shrine, along with a video of the area of the world where this culture of more than a million people thrived for more than two and a half millenniums.

Items on display include painting scrolls, hand-made paper scrolls, rattles, shaman books, shaman robes, bells, ritual swords, masks, hats, a variety of clothing, and other artifacts.

The museum is open from noon to 5 pm Wednesday through Sunday, and admission is free. To learn more, visit www.museum.ucsb.edu, where The Art of the Shaman in Vietnam and Southern China is featured under •MJ Upcoming Events.
