Google works to create special computer Goleta lab focuses on developing error-corrected quantum computer

By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Erik Lucero, the lead engineer for Google Quantum AI, points at a graphic detailing the future of research at the lab in Goleta. Google is working to develop an errorcorrected quantum computer.

Google is on a mission to create an error-corrected quantum computer that would outperform any supercomputer ever created and streamline solutions for some of the world’s biggest problems.

And that mission is on its way to completion right here in the Santa Barbara area.

Last month, Google unveiled its new Quantum AI research campus in Goleta.

The brand new facility is Google’s new headquarters for quantum computational research, upgrading the headquarters from its old space near M. Special Brewing Co. From the outside, the facility looks like a typical office building. But on the inside, an experimental lab with state-ofthe-art equipment is home to some of the most advanced computational research that will take place in the next decade.

It’s within this new facility that researchers hope to create the world’s most elite problem solving machine. Their research centers on the development of quantum computers, which utilize quantum bits or “qubits” that have the capacity to solve complex problems, such as how molecules behave.

Qubits have the power to mimic the quantum nature of molecules and atoms by existing in a complex mix of zeros and ones, similar to the way atoms exist in multiple states all at once.

This new technology can even reimagine the work of a traditional chemist, allowing scientists to examine, for example, the bonding energy of a molecule without ever having to create a physical model in the lab by hand. With Please see QUANTUM on A3

Building blocks Families enjoy Father’s Day activity at Montecito Country Mart

By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

On a day dedicated to great father figures, some dads decided to join an activity for kids Sunday during a Lego-building event at the Montecito Country Mart.

Play-Well, a company that uses Legos to teach engineering to kids, hosted three hours of Lego building in the market’s courtyard.

The Nevius Family was among about 10 families who decided to join the fun. The family, who recently purchased a second home in Montecito, was enjoying their last day in town when they saw the sign for the event.

Oliver, 8, saw keywords like “Lego,” “building,” “cars” and “Father’s Day” and wanted to check it out.

“Me and my dad, we really like to build Legos,” he told the News-Press.

The audience sang along Saturday night with vocalists on stage at a packed Lobero Theatre to celebrate Brian Wilson’s birthday and the theater’s reopening after more than a year.

Mr. Wilson, who has a home in Santa Barbara, turned 79 Sunday. While the Beach Boys legend wasn’t seen in the Lobero audience, his presence was felt in his songs, which varied from “Our Prayer,” the powerful a capella notes that open his 2004 “Smile” album (listen to it if you haven’t) to the Beach Boys’ “Surfer Girl.”

Other “Beach Boys’ songs ranged from the emotional “God Only Knows” to the musically complex and thrilling “Good Vibrations.” Throughout the Santa Barbara concert, musical director Sal Leonardo led the ensemble of Brother Sal and The Devil May Care with musicians such as Glen Phillips, Garrison Starr, Will Breman, Chris Pierce, Shane Alexander, Leslie Stevens, Todd O’Keefe, Max Kasch, The

Their sons attend a school with a large STEM program.

In a Pew Research Center survey, three-quarters of Americans responded that they enjoyed science class in grades K12. Of those who liked the class, 70% said they enjoyed the handson aspect of science courses.

These chances to experiment and play may turn into the kids’

futures.

STEM occupations are expected to grow 8% between 2019 and 2029, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. By contrast, non-STEM occupations are estimated at 3.4% growth.

Regardless of whether the three Nevius sons grow to become engineers, they were excited to build Lego cars on Father’s Day

— alongside their dad.

The boys didn’t remember what gift they had given Mr. Nevius (even if young children know what a golf rangefinder is). But the first thing Oliver said was how much fun he and his dad have playing with blocks. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

of the colorful 1960s, right down to the flowers. At one point, Jems and The Brambles shared the stage together, and during a song’s instrumental interlude, they performed a quick tribute to special 1960s dance steps.

The concert also featured the vocalists talking to the audience about Mr. Wilson and his music.

Chris Pierce, who succeeded as a singer despite some loss of hearing, talked about how he was inspired by Mr. Wilson, who lost hearing in one ear during his youth. Then Mr. Piece impressed the audience with his performances. Wow, the man can sing!

The crowd was also amazed by the other singers, from Shane Alexander whose hat and coat fit the look of The Beach Boys, to Todd O’Keefe, a young man with powerful vocals.

Overall, it was a night of power, nostalgia, celebration and caring for others. The concert’s ticket proceeds and silent auction of a guitar signed by the musicians raised money for New Beginnings of Santa Barbara. email: dmason@newspress.com

performed with the backup band. Just before performing some of the songs, he played quick, bluesy riffs, and they fit the spirit of the night.

Mr. Leonardo also talked about his love for Mr. Wilson’s music, and the energetic pianist, who also sang at times, made the crowd laugh with his spontaneity and humor.

After he erred on singers’ hometowns while introducing them, Mr. Leonardo joked he didn’t even know his own origins.

The music was mostly Mr. Wilson’s songs, although the concert ended with a couple Beach Boys songs not written by Mr. Wilson, including “Kokomo,” from the 1988 movie “Cocktail.” And just before the intermission, the concert featured an inspiring duet of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” to commemorate Juneteenth.

The song was written in 1900 in honor of Abraham Lincoln, who signed the Emancipation Proclamation and worked with Congress to ensure adoption of the 13th

Amendment abolishing slavery.

After the intermission came more spontaneity. At one point, Mr. Leonardo loved a duet of Mr. Wilson’s “In My Room” so much that he asked the singers to do it again.

They did, with one vocalist, Glen Phillips of longtime Santa Barbara band Toad the Wet Sprocket, persuading the audience to sing along. The crowd, who were mainly baby boomers who grew up with the Beach Boys, knew all the words.

The vocals stood out throughout the concert, and it was great to hear the women on stage performing songs originally recorded by men.

The results were everything from a fresh interpretation of the rhythmic “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” to the upbeat “Be True to Your School.” The latter song was performed by The Brambles, a female duo, who added the nice touch of a ukulele during the beginning before the beat picks up. Before singing, the vocalists proved to be true to their own school by noting they were graduates of Dos Pueblos High School in Goleta.

A tub of building blocks isn’t anything new for Oliver and his brothers Henry, 6, and Mac, 3. But they were still excited to build cars and race them down the sidewalk.

The kids started out with a bag of blocks to build a basic car.

Then, they could dig through a bucket of “accessories” for the vehicle.

Each of the three Nevius boys built a different multi-colored vehicle. A small pull back on each creation sent the cars flying forward.

“It’s electric,” Henry said with wide eyes.

“It’s a great way to just sit there and play with them and watch their imagination, and you end up using your own imagination,” PlayWell instructor Chantal Hagan said.

In Play-Well classes, she helps children think about how the car’s construction impacts its speed.

Play-Well launched in 1997 with a mission to engage kids in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). Since the nineties, STEM education has grown, and schools have added art to the program and called it STEAM. Santa Barbara schools, both private and public, have embraced this concept of STEAM. Students at Cold Spring School in Montecito recently used coding knowledge to give commands to robots. Santa Barbara Unified School District took summer school to MOXI, The Wolf Museum of Exploration + Innovation.

Devon and Leslie Nevius had heard about MOXI from other parents and have the museum in mind for their next Montecito trip.

Quantum computers could accelerate research time for chemists QUANTUM

Continued from Page A1

this, chemists have the potential to discover and map a realm of the molecular world that has previously been untouched.

An error-corrected quantum computer would accelerate the research process for chemists, Eric Lucero, the lead engineer for Google Quantum AI, told the News-Press. He explained that by using a quantum computer, chemists can map molecules and run tests for molecules that have not been mapped before.

According to researchers, using a quantum computer to map and study molecules not only saves researchers time and energy, it also allows them to find solutions to many of the world’s problems faster.

For example, researchers say the new technology could be used to discover how to create a better battery using less rare earth materials or learn how to feed the world’s population by making fertilizer more efficiently. It could also lead to the development of new medicines and improve optimization techniques that would, in turn, improve artificial intelligence.

“This is an opportunity to build a new computational capability for humanity that everybody would benefit from,” Mr. Lucero said.

In 2019, researchers from Google successfully showcased that a quantum system could be built and that even a small quantum computer could outperform the largest supercomputer on earth.

Now, knowing what’s possible, researchers are on a quest to develop an error-corrected quantum computer in the next 10 years.

This kind of quantum computer would essentially enable the device to run perpetually and correct its own errors, similar to how classical computers can correct their own errors. The current quantum model has a limited capacity that can only handle so much information at a time before it quits.

Though quantum computers will likely become increasingly common and more accessible in the next decade, Mr. Lucero said he does not expect the new technology to do away with traditional computing altogether.

In fact, he expects the two systems to work together in harmony. “(A quantum computer) is not going to replace your iPhone or your Mac at home,” Mr. Lucero said. “It’s actually, in some ways, I like to think of more of a symbiotic relationship, where these two systems will actually benefit from one another.

They won’t replace (each other) — you’ll use a quantum computer for specific kinds of problems.

“An example of such might be to help with learning and machine learning, where we can actually offload moments to do training, and do things faster on a quantum computer that might otherwise take a lot of resources.”

While researchers project that this next development is nearly a decade away, they are hopeful the new technology will inspire the next generation of innovators to continue to advance computing in decades to come. “(The next generation) is going to be exposed to a quantum computer at a very young age,” Mr. Lucero said. “It’s going to be the kind of thing that, (similar to how) we’ve seen people who have grown up with cell phones all the time, and they will have grown up with quantum computers. They will know how to program on those systems, and the intuition that they will have will be a different intuition, because it will now have been one that explored a quantum computing landscape.

“That, to me, is just the beginning of a whole set of new computer scientists, quantum computer scientists.” email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Above, Google’s research and development of a quantum computer got the attention of Science magazine. Below, Google unveiled its new Quantum AI headquarter in Goleta.

Erik Lucero stands in front of the photo of a Sycamore chip at Google’s new Quantum AI headquarters in Goleta.

The lab space features state-of-the-art technology and various murals on the walls. It is at this Goleta site that researchers expect to create a quantum computer that will be more powerful than any other supercomputer in history.

CAVAT, Irma

Irma Cavat, artist, Professor Emeritus, mother, and free spirit, passed away on February 16, 2020 with her daughters at her side in Santa Barbara. Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1925, Cavat became a professional artist in her early 20s. She studied with Ukrainian sculptor, Alexander Archipenko, German-American artist, Hans Hofmann, at the New School for Social Research in New York, and modeled for French surrealist painter, Renee Magritte. Cavat designed the windows of FAO Schwartz WR\ VWRUH RQ )LIWK $YHQXH LOOXVWUDWHG VFLHQFH ÀFWLRQ books, and designed her own jewelry. As a young artist, she lived for a year in Haiti, exchanging room and board for portraits of the people with whom she resided. In the early 1950s, she became close friends and worked with artists Willem and Elaine De Kooning, thus joining the Abstract Expressionist group, which included Jackson Pollack and Franz Kline. She counted amongst her friends and associates the jazz musician, Charlie Parker, writers Frank O’Hara and James Baldwin, and jazz singer, Billie Holiday. She wed artist, Zubel Kachadoorian, in 1952, and when the marriage ended, Cavat moved with her children to Santa Barbara, CA to teach at UCSB from 1963 to 1995. Her awards include residencies at Yaddo in New York, the McDowell Colony in Maine, the Djerassi Foundation in Northern California, and a Fulbright Grant to Rome, Italy. It was in Rome during the period of 1957-1959 that her daughters, Karina Cavat (New York City) and Nika Cavat (Venice, California) were born, and she then continued to reside there for several more years. Cavat exhibited her art in New York, Michigan, California, Rome, Paris, London, and Athens. It was during the early PRYH EDFN WR WKH 8QLWHG 6WDWHV LQ WKH V WKDW VKH EHJDQ WR SDLQW ÀJXUDWLYHO\ RIWHQ using the Civil Rights and other social movements as inspiration for her work.

She exhibited her work at the Sheinbaum Gallery, NYC; the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, the Sullivan Goss Gallery, Santa Barbara, CA; the Feingarten Gallery, Los Angeles; Academia Americana, Rome, Italy, and Kennedy Galleries, NY, NY, amongst many venues. From the mid-’80s until the time of his death in 2002, kinetic sculptor, George Rickey used her California home, an over hundred-year-old converted barn, as a winter studio. In 1995, in collaboration with landscape architect, Isabelle Greene and Walter Kohn, a Nobel laureate in theoretical physics, Cavat helped create the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation’s Sadako Peace Garden on the 50th anniversary of the Hiroshima tragedy. She lived for extended periods of time in Paris, Provence, Athens, and London. An avid traveler, she also journeyed to the open markets of Morocco, Tiananmen Square in China, the Taj Mahal in India, and throughout parts of Turkey, Japan, Hungary, the Baltic States, and Russia.

Monikers matter for local artist’s bronze sculptures

By MARILYN MCMAHON

What’s in a name?

NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

U

p Periscope.

Gigantic Pig Antic.

Four and Twenty.

Will You Marry Me? The Potato Poobah.

Running Scissors.

The Dingaling Family.

Upsy-Daisy.

These are only a few of the names that are as whimsical and as intriguing as the bronze pieces sculptor Susan Read Cronin has given them.

“The names give the viewer an idea about what I was thinking as I was working,” Ms. Cronin told the News-Press. “One time I couldn’t get the song about ‘Four and Twenty Blackbirds Baked in a Pie’ out of my head, which was the start of ‘Four and Twenty.’ Then, I wondered how I could make a sculpture that looked like 24 blackbirds in a pie.”

The Montecito resident said she almost always starts out “wondering. . . like I may see a blob in my clay pile and wonder what it is. For instance, I had thrown the two carrots from ‘Growing Close’ back into the recycle pile to melt back down after I cast them. I pulled one of the melted misshapen carrots and wondered if it might be an elephant trunk.

“Next thing, I knew ‘Lucky’ the elephant showed up.”

Whether it’s elephants, dogs, mice, vegetables or people, all her sculptures have one thing in common — they fulfill her goal of getting the same reaction from viewers.

“Pleasure, enjoyment, smiles, lightbulbs going off, laughing out loud, falling to the rug weeping, ‘Ah Ha!s,’ sobs, quizzical looks . . . second looks and double takes — the point of my work is to have fun and to have people view the world from a different perspective,” said Ms. Cronin, who has a studio in Summerland.

She and her husband, Ted Cronin, who moved to Montecito in 2016, have two sons, Read, 43, and Wright, 40, and three grandchildren.

“My work is generally figurative.

It is purposely not highly accurate.

I am more interested in gestures and feelings than the exact duplication of a living thing. I care about silhouettes and loosely modeled surfaces. Most of my work has a message or a story behind it.”

Educated at The Madeira School in McLean, Va., she developed her passion for art and design while studying for her bachelor’s degree at Williams College in Williamstown, Mass.

“I didn’t become serious about sculpting until our house caught on fire while we were living in Manchester, Vt., in 1997.

After a year of dealing with the insurance company, I needed to do something creative to feed my soul. I took classes with renowned sculptors Jane B. Armstrong and Walter Matia,” said Ms. Cronin.

Three years later, she had her first solo show called “Fables, Foibles and Fairy Tales,” which traveled to 18 museums around the country.

“Part of the challenge of working in bronze is that I need to have a clear vision of what something will look like when it’s translated into a different medium i.e. from the initial clay to the final bronze,” said Ms. Cronin.

“Bronze casting is a team sport. At the foundry, I depend on others to make my art look good. Sometimes interesting things happen there, which can take a piece even further down the trail.

“When I bring a finished piece home from the foundry, I put it in my kitchen, where I live with it. I like to interact with my work and often make multiples that I arrange and play with rather than putting them on a bookshelf.”

Her limited edition sculptures range in price from $450 to $12,800.

She has had solo exhibitions of her work in Vermont at Tilting at Windmills Gallery and the Southern Vermont Arts Center in Manchester, Artisan Designs & Gallery in Brattleboro and Please see CRONIN on B4

“The Matchmaker” is among Montecito artist Susan Read Cronin’s whimsically named sculptures. It measures 11¾ inches high by 6 inches wide by 12 inches deep. (Bronze limited edition of eight.)

In the “Bone and I” series, “whoever has the bone has the powers,” Susan Read Cronin said. “The Bone I’ measures 17 inches high by 10 inches wide by 13 inches deep. (Bronze limited edition of 12.) “The Bone II” is also part of the bronze limited edition of 12, and it’s 10.5 inches high by 10 inches wide by 16 inches deep. (Bronze limited edition of 12.)

Stirrups are a great work of art hat P.S. sends me is — or was — universal for many years: a ubiquitous pair

of stirrups.

We can all imagine a time when cars were not in our “wheelhouse” (what a phrase) and we rode horses — or were pulled by them.

P.S. sends me a fascinating pair of South American stirrups, and they are SO SMALL that I suspect they are lady’s stirrups, from a time when lady-feet were prized only if they were dainty and small.

What a joke. When you think that at this time when these stirrups were made, most women had on an average of five kids.

Whose feet were small after carrying such loads? But that is the idealization of women at the time. They must have had tiny little feet — and boy, do these little, tiny stirrups reflect that.

Let us see just how universal stirrups were in the 18th and 19th centuries, and how plentiful the relics of them are, because few stirrups are worth much in the marketplace “for equipage,” as that market is called.

Firstly, let us look at the encased foot form. The Spanish Colonial riding stirrups in the late 18th century have a curved toe, echoing the Moorish heritage of Spain, with a decorative ornate element for the saddle — beautiful, foliated band with a small slot to attach to the saddle.

Those will only set you back around $300 because so many existed. These are based (and here we see that in California, we do have a history of those kind of stirrups) – on Spanish solid brass stirrups.

And they have that form that shows the shape of the foot.

But other countries have their own forms.

For example, the Japanese stirrups of the late 19th century, called “Abumi,” which are also small, but are in form of a “C” shape (not encasing the foot, but resting the foot on the bottom

of that “C” shape). They’re beautiful in their sparsity.

These are usually of both bronze and brass and can be worth at their most elegant at $1,500. If you find a pair of Abumi, which are cast iron lacquered over with a beautiful gold- gilt inlay, then you have something. But my bet is that you will think they are modern abstract works of art, and you might never recognize that they are stirrups from the 19th century.

They are just that beautiful and functional that you cannot imagine feet in them: just a wonderful curve in a C shape that is highly decorated, from the Meiji period 1868-1911, selling for upward of $2,000 the pair.

Now we come to 100% American stirrups of the 19th century.

Of course, we will find that not only is our underlying American consumerism at work, but stirrups were created to support political candidates!

What a change from the elegant non-linear Japanese form and the ancient Spanish form that were so very functional.

In America of the 19th century, stirrups, if they were high-styled, had to support something other than the foot.

A case in point are the stirrups that were made for the candidacy of Henry Clay, the speaker of the house in the 19th century, who ran in the 1844 presidential campaign.

You might have guessed that he loved horses, as he was from Kentucky. He bred horses, so his campaign created stirrups which had (instead of a pretty foot support) an initial band which read “HCLAY” upon which you might rest your feet.

Here’s the fun part. Henry Clay, who lost for president, did something for the horse culture of the mid-19th century. These stirrups reflect this: He raised Old Henry Clay,the great horse of the 19th century, America’s National Thoroughbred Trotting Horse. His progeny sired the magnificent “Clay

These South American stirrups are South American, Brazilian Britannica metal. They’re in the style of conquistador stirrups from the third quarter of the 19th century.

Line” of great trotting horses, so much so that after the great Henry Clay passed away peacefully in 1867 (the horse, not the candidate), the remains were exhumed, and his mandible was set up on display at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. P.S. did not want to know

so much about the history of stirrups, but I will say that hers are indeed South American, Brazilian Britannica metal (not very much silver content at all). They’re in the style of conquistador stirrups from the third quarter of the 19th century, perhaps by the great Brazilian ironmonger Correa

de Lima, Rio de Janeiro (18611873). A similar pair sold at New Orleans Auctions for $300.

Dr. Elizabeth Stewart’s “Ask the Gold Digger” column appears Mondays in the NewsPress Life section.

Written after her father’s COVID-19 diagnosis, Dr.

Stewart’s book “My Darlin’ Quarantine: Intimate Connections Created in Chaos” is a humorous collection of five “whatif” short stories that end in personal triumphs over present-day constrictions.

“He who knows that enough is enough will always have enough.” — Lao Tzu

Libra

Being an Aries means you may be impulsive at times.

And with this Mercury retrograde happening in your communication zone, you may have gotten yourself into trouble more times than once!

Thankfully, now that it’s direct, communication will be a lot easier this week.

Adventure awaits, Libra! It might be a good idea to get out of town or go on an adventure, when Mercury turns direct in your philosophy zone. Even signing up for a class or a new activity would be a good idea.

This week brings a magical moment over the weekend.

Dreams may come true!

Taurus

Scorpio

Your finances are about to become more regulated, as Mercury turns direct in your money zone. With the full moon on Thursday, it’s best to stay put and celebrate what’s been accomplished. Over the weekend, have fun with family, Taurus.

Being a Scorpio means you are deeply rooted in your intimate moments. But with Mercury being retrograde, you’ve felt it difficult to express how you feel. Finally, you are able to do that this week. The full moon is also opening up in your communication zone—so, keep the words flowing.

Cancer Mercury moves forward in your privacy zone, which will ask you to keep a low profile.

Take some alone time to consider what your dreams are and what you want. The full moon lights up your partnership zone, Cancer. It can be easy to be carried away here, but don’t commit without thought.

Leo Mercury turns direct in your friendship zone. That means your friend group may get a bit of a shake-up handed to them.

But you’re no stranger to drama, Leo. Over the weekend, Venus enters your sign. Finally!

Virgo Tackle goals and blockages this week, as Mercury turns direct. The week may also bring some fun, creative energy—as you think more about what skills you have and less about what you need. Finally, Venus moves into a private area of your chart. If you’re dealing with heartbreak, Virgo, this is the weekend to handle it.

Sagittarius Mercury moves direct in your partnership zone—which means that you’ll be able to achieve peace with a loved one. The full moon is in your value zone. It’s a great time to pay off debts or loans, Sagittarius.

Capricorn The full moon is happening in your sign, Capricorn! This is giving you the power you need to start something fresh. Over the weekend, Venus moves into passionate Leo—encouraging you to spice up your relationship or take things to the next level.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language.

Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet.

Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance.

All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid.

Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Concert to celebrate Beatles music

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

At left, “Most of my work has a message or a story behind it, said Montecito sculptor Susan Read Cronin, seen here wrangling a couple of her sculptures. At right, “Jackpot” is is from a series of four Jacks. “Jackpot” measures 15 inches high by 12 wide by 8.5 inches deep. (Bronze limited edition of 24.)

A journalist who survived the insanity of fans during The Beatles’ 1964 U.S. tour will host Ensemble Theater Company’s concert celebrating the Fab Four’s timeless music.

The concert will take place at 3 p.m. July 3 at Godric Grove at Elings Park.

The program will benefit Ensemble’s education programs and is sponsored by Janet and Mark L. Goldenson.

Performers include local young artists and a band led by Santa Barbara musician Brian Mann, with performances by local young artists.

Host is Ivor Davis, the Ventura author of “The Beatles and Me: On Tour” (Cockney Kid Publishing, 2014).

Mr. Davis, a London native and longtime journalist, recalled his experiences with The Beatles in a 2014 News-Press interview.

In 1964, Mr. Davis, then the West Coast correspondent for the

London-based Daily Express, traveled with The Beatles on their first tour in the U.S. and Canada.

One night, he was sitting in a limousine in Cleveland, and a mob of young women was furiously pounding on the tinted windows and doors. They climbed on the hood, unaware the passengers were reporters, not music icons.

“I screamed, ‘We’re not The Beatles!,’ “ Mr. Davis told the News-Press 50 years later in his Ventura home. “It didn’t make a difference. If they had got in, they probably would have torn me from limb to limb! It was more dangerous than a safari. At least you can talk sense to lions.”

“It was kind of a blitzkrieg.

Everywhere we went was insanity,” Mr. Davis said.

He recalled concerts where young women climbed onto the stage and wrapped their arms around the legs of John Lennon, who simply kept performing. email: dmason@newspress.com

At left, “Ahh, the slippery slope of trying to negotiate up the edge of a butter knife,” Susan Read Cronin said about “Butter Up,” part of a series of mice called “Table Manners.” “Butter Up” measures 7.5 inches high by 5.5 inches wide by 13 inches deep.

Ms. Cronin is also the author of “Bronze Casting in a Nutshell,”

which is illustrated by her father, the late A.D. Read, a cartoonist.

When everything closed down during the pandemic, including the foundry she used, Masters in Metal in Oxnard, Ms. Cronin focused on her other passion, writing poetry.

Her first book, “Notices,” was published in June 2020, and “Open” was released several months ago.

According to Ms. Cronin, a reviewer named Peter Darling wrote the following about “Open,” which can apply to “Notices” also: “This is a collection of lovely, focused, short poems that are almost alarming in their intensity. They’re about everything — death, loss, doubt, the push-and-pull of family, and most of all, the moments during the day-to-day that, if you’re

paying attention, stop you in your tracks.” email: mmcmahon@newspress.com
