SMC names Executive Evictions thin the ranks of VP as interim president Village Trailer Park holdouts BY DAVID MARK SIMPSON Daily Press Staff Writer
SMC When Santa Monica College President Chui Tsang steps down after nearly a decade later this year, the college’s executive vice president will take the reins. The College Board of Trustees voted Tuesday night to appoint Jeff Shimizu to the position of interim president. Under the agreement Shimizu, who was recently appointed to the post of executive vice president, will steer the 33,000-student college with a $149 million annual operating budget until the position is filled or until the end of the year. Shimizu will start at the same base salary as Tsang, who was paid $337,000 in 2013 according to the watchdog group Transparent California, which files public records requests to determine the salaries of public employees. Tsang announced last month that he’ll retire at the end of this school year, on July 1. Shimizu joined the college as a member of the counseling department in 1985. From there he worked as the dean of counseling, athletic director, and dean of

His longest role was as Vice President of Academic Affairs, which he held for a decade until he was appointed to his current position in September. “As Vice President of Academic Affairs, Shimizu provided leadership for the college’s 21 instructional departments,” SMC officials said in a release. “His responsibilities ranged from curriculum, dis-

COLORADO AVE Evictions have begun at Village Trailer Park and after years of disputes between residents, developers and the city, it appears only one embattled resident remains on site. Two residents were evicted last month, said Jack Waddington, another holdout who said he’s ready to settle with developer Millenium Santa Monica LLC. The evictions are the culmination of a years-long process that began when City Council approved a development agreement for the trailer park land in 2012 and then effectively rescinded the agreement two weeks later after then-newly elected members Tony Vazquez and Ted Winterer took
office. The owner of the park, Marc Luzzatto, then filed a $50 million lawsuit against City Hall, which was settled, paving the way for a revised development agreement in 2013 that includes a 362-unit mixed-use building with up to

COMMUNITY BRIEFS CULVER CITY
New STEM series launches at John Muir Elementary Whether they’re conducting interviews of school employees to address a school system issue, analyzing turtles and owls to figure out how to keep bicyclists safe or developing a video game to encourage peers to live a healthy lifestyle, students at John Muir Elementary have embarked on a unique, hands-on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) program developed by a local district partner, The Exploratory. “In exposing our young students to STEM-related programs early on, we are establishing the foundation for each student to be knowledgeable and competitive for the systems, problems and solutions of tomorrow’s jobs,” district superintendent Sandra Lyon said. “We are extremely grateful for the partnership with The Exploratory and for the hands-on experience it is bringing to our classrooms.” The eight-week program, the second part of a two-part STEM series, is organized in part by The Exploratory, a Culver City-based design lab that prepares children for the challenges of tomorrow through its “Tinker.Make.Innovate” philosophy. The program consists of grade-level specific assignments developed for John Muir students. “The Exploratory seeks to teach children to use their natural curiosity to take risks, learn from mistakes and dive into exploration to produce imaginative solutions for tomorrow’s challenges,” said Jean Kaneko, founder and head tinkerer at The Exploratory. “By using innovative teaching methods in a STEM framework, children are prepared for a future that requires effective problem-solving skills, outside-the-box and flexible thinking.” At John Muir, kindergarteners will be tasked with understanding how the cafeteria, library, classrooms, among other facets of their campus, operate within their school system. They will interview employees in order to design a solution to an issue they encounter while learning the basics of how to design a prototype of the school’s entrance

Second-graders will explore simple machines and gear systems to create an automata, or self-operating machine, that will share a story about a person who had a made a difference in history. Fourth- and fifth-graders will invent a solution to natural disaster. Fifth-graders will also design a video game using scratch programming language and self-created input devices called makey-makeys that encourage peers to live healthy lives. “This series really teaches our students the basics of engineering and design as they are challenged to not only learn, but also to put into practice concepts of balance, strength and innovation,” John Muir principal Tristan Komlos said. “We are so grateful for the inspirational and practical program that The Exploratory has developed for our students here.” The STEM in-class series at John Muir is the first offered by The Exploratory, which works with other SMMUSD schools as an after-school program. The organization meets in all 11 classrooms once a week for about an hour. The first part of the STEM series consisted of hands-on activities in which kindergarteners examined natural materials through different lenses; first-graders made games using wind power and second-graders made insects out of recycled materials. Third-graders learned about circuitry, lights and reflection, while fourth-graders explored habitats by inventing an imaginary creature and its make-believe habitat. The Exploratory is an educational organization, camp and service that focuses on developing creative learning programs that promote hands-on, inquiry-based learning that uses both sides of the brain. The design studio, where students, teachers and others can attend workshops and programs, is located in Culver City.

Wrestling with the Devil IT WASN’T JUST THE NOSE. OR THE
hooded eyelids. Or the protruding gums in the small mouth that almost never smiled. It was the total demeanor. The flat tones of his speech, punctuated by frequent pauses. The ego that prompted him to identify himself as “The Golden Eagle.” It was the transformed funny-man, Steve Carell, taking on the persona of the self-proclaimed “ornithologist, philatelist and philanthropist,” John du Pont, heir to one of the largest family fortunes in the country. Carell’s stunning performance earned him an Oscar nomination for a role in a film that few went to see. The film was “The Foxcatcher,” named for the massive estate to which du Pont brought his “band of brothers,” champion wrestlers that he aspired to coach into immortality. Du Pont was neither a wrestler nor a coach, but when you have that much money you can, presumably, convince people that you are anyone you say you are. And so du Pont “seduced” these men, including two brothers who had each won gold medals in the 1984 Olympics, by supplying them with the lifestyle of landed squires and feeding them with dreams of glory. In return, he worked them mercilessly and boasted that he had become like a father to them. For an introverted man preoccupied with only himself, who had never had a real friend in his life, the acquisition of an entourage of servile sycophants was a decisive triumph. The Olympic gold medalists, Mark and David Schultz, fatherless at an early age and impoverished, could not turn down the money that du Pont offered them. And Mark, who was exceptionally needy, bought into du Pont’s pitch about patriotism and teaching the next generation the values he believed in. Mark even bought into du Pont’s demand that he “become his own man” and distance himself from his older brother, David. David, who was a gregarious, easygoing man, was also a superior wrestling coach, and du Pont soon began to exhibit a subliminal envy, not only for his prowess, but also for his happy home life — a wife who obviously adored him and two loving kids. Du Pont also had a troubled relationship with his mother. She was an accomplished horsewoman who crowded out his wrestling trophies from the family “Trophy Room” with excessive hardware of her own. An insensitive taskmaster, she consistently chidPUBLISHER
ed him for his devotion to wrestling, which she considered a “low” sport. And however much he tried to win her approval, she never gave it. Eventually, for somewhat trivial reasons, the warm relationship between Mark and du Pont soured. Mark won a gold medal for Team Foxcatcher at the 1987 World Wrestling Championships, but — having been introduced to cocaine by du Pont, who was a heavy user — he drifted into a drug habit augmented by heavy drinking. Disillusioned by continual rebuffs by du Pont and assaults on his fragile selfesteem, Mark finally left Foxcatcher, and wrestling. He urged Dave to leave as well, but Dave remained until one fateful day in January 1996, when, inexplicably, du Pont committed murder. After holding off the police for 48 hours, du Pont was captured and became the central figure in a notorious trial. This true story was made into a book by E. Max Frye and Dan Futterman and subsequently into a film produced and directed by Bennett Miller. Miller, who was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director for the film, won the Best Director Award at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival. In addition to Carell’s nomination for Best Actor at the 87th Academy Awards ceremony, Mark Ruffalo, who played David, was nominated for Best Supporting Actor, E. Max Frye and Dan Futterman were nominated for Best Original Screenplay and Bill Corso and Dennis Lilliard were nominated for Best Makeup and Hair Styling. Other members of the stellar cast included Channing Tatum as Mark, a somewhat naïve and befuddled champion, and Vanessa Redgrave, du Pont’s starchy, Victorian mother. Fortunately, she died before she had to endure the indignity of seeing her name besmirched as her son stood on trial for murder. Du Pont served 15 years of a 30-year sentence before he died in 2010 from heart disease and emphysema. One would hope that, during the time he was incarcerated, this complex, troubled and lonely man would have at least acquired a friend. The film, which was released in time for the Oscars, will be re-released in Los Angeles this month.

acting talent and many decades of experience. Now onstage at the Mark Taper Forum, the 87-year-old actor steals the show as an 89-year-old retired antiques appraiser in Arthur Miller’s “The Price.” Mandell triumphed in the Taper’s outstanding 2012 production of Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot,” and he injects humor and life into his role as “the magical Jew” in this production. Two brothers who’ve been estranged for decades must divide the spoils of their father’s life — 16 years after he dies. The building that houses the father’s antique furniture collection is about to be demolished, and the brothers need to sell or lose it all. The father’s business failed in the Depression, and while one brother stayed behind to tend to his broken life, the other never looked back and went on to a successful career as a surgeon, sending the old man a mere $5 a month and calling it support. The brothers, Victor the cop (Sam Robards), who once was a promising science prodigy, and Walter the doctor (John Bedford Lloyd), don’t actually get together onstage till the final seconds of Act I, a visual representation of the emotional chasm between them. Mandell, as appraiser Gregory Solomon, is the catalyst; assessing the price of the collection, the psychological ramifications of the brothers’ life choices are exposed, weighed and measured, too. Victor is happy to get things over with. Despite his disillusioned wife’s (Kate Burton) nagging not to get swindled, he is happy to settle for whatever he’s offered, while all she wants is another drink. When Walter enters the picture, in his expensive coat and attitude of noblesse oblige, everything that’s wrong with their relationship comes to the fore. Past history explodes, revealing resentment and blame, including Victor’s pointless sacrifice and personal sense of failure, and Walter’s failed marriage and nervous breakdown. The price of furniture and the price of one’s choices — this is the stuff of timeless family drama, and sometimes it’s heavy sledding and a whole lotta words. Fortunately Mandell brings comic relief and the wisdom and foibles of age to the stage. The crux of the play comes down to this line: “You’ve got to make decisions before you know how things will turn out, and you have to live with the results,” a truth with some serious consequences, in life and in the theatre. Arthur Miller’s “The Price” is at the Mark Taper Forum in downtown Los Angeles

Call (310) 392-7327 or get tickets online at www.edmarcenter.org. BREAST EXAMINATION
We’ve had “The Vagina Monologues.” Now look up. As someone of (ahem) ample proportions, I am fascinated by the premise of “Conversations ‘Bout the Girls,” a play that examines the lives of young girls and women and the relationships they have with their breasts, i.e., “the Girls.” On March 8, for one performance only, “Conversations” explores themes ranging from female sexuality to women’s health, domestic abuse, breastfeeding, cancer and implants, featuring women of all ages and ethnicities. Conceived, written and directed by Sonia Jackson, the nine women have candid conversations about topics including “My First Bra,” “The Adjustment Bureau,” “To Cleave or Not to Cleave” and “The Lump.” In honor of International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, the play will be onstage on March 8 at 2 p.m. at The Electric Lodge, 1416 Electric Ave., in Venice.

inspired others to take their lives back. Again, how many lives were saved? We’ll never know. In 1968, a young biracial fan wrote Nimoy a fan letter, concerned she’d never have any friends because she felt like she didn’t fit in anywhere and thought, due to his portrayal of the half-human Spock, that he’d understand. His intelligent, loving reply was a tear-jerker, wherein he spoke of making oneself so important to the world around them that they become indispensable, even in the face of bigotry. What may that have done for that one child? For the world around that child? For the lives that child touched as the child grew to adulthood? The societal butterfly effect goes on forever. This was nowhere near the first fan letter of the sort Nimoy received, nor would it be the last. His 2007 photography book “The Full Body Project” pushed for body acceptance long before the current trend towards the same. Nimoy photographed what some would call “plus-size” women in their natural state (that is, sans clothes). The result was an empowering — and masterful — blackand-white collection. If this project improved the lives of any of his models, and consequently of anyone in their lives, or the lives of any of the people who purchased his book, well, then he’d succeeded again. These are just a few shining examples of Nimoy’s essential contributions to the world as a whole. So look around you. Take full stock of all of the people in this world who have been touched or empowered by the work of Leonard Nimoy. Look at the amazing things he’s done for the world. Look at the lives he changed and the fires he lit. That is how many atom bombs he was.

season finale of the cult-classic J.J. Abrams series “Fringe,” our heroes, led by Walter Bishop (John Noble), are trapped in an alternate world, far from home, low on power and short on time. His old colleague, closest friend and occasional adversary William Bell (Leonard Nimoy), his own atoms wildly transformed through years of bizarre scientific experiments, offers to provide the nuclear power they need to get them home — at the cost of his own life. Walter tries hard not to understand, but “Belly” explains it in no uncertain terms. “You taught me there are as many atoms in the human body as there are stars in the sky,” he explains. “That’s how many atom bombs I am.” In a way, the statement was literal, and Belly was able to get Walter and his team back to their universe. But in another, more real-world way, it wasn’t a fictional character speaking, but Leonard Nimoy himself. As an actor, soldier, musician, activist, author, director and photographer, he’d become more than a cult figure or an icon; he’d become a legitimate force for good in the world and, what’s more, an inspiration. Of course, his work as Spock in “Stark Trek” — a role he played on and off from 1966 to 2013 in various TV shows and feature films — was legendary. But there was so much more to the man than that. How many men and women were inspired to become scientists? The number is astronomically high, with no real way to figure out the exact amount, but think of it this way: The next time an astronaut or chief figure at NASA mentions how they and their colleagues love “Stark Trek,” add a probable few dozen to that list. In the late ‘60s, Nimoy struggled with alcoholism, eventually conquering the disease and speaking of it publicly — and critically. His strength and openness no doubt

some residents new trailers and pay to have them installed at Mountain View Mobile Home Park in the city. The developers were also required to offer cash for the value of the land on which the trailers sit. Ten of the current trailer park spaces were preserved under the 2014 agreement and residents of those homes will have some rights over the land for the next 50 years. However, four residents living in a total of three units, were not covered by any of the settlements and for the past year, Millennium has been trying to evict the holdouts. Waddington, who is 82 years old, has been representing himself, without a lawyer, in court. He believes that the developers actions are illegal but has grown weary of judges ruling against him in court. His trailer, toward the back of the park, is well kept, and surrounded by greenery. “I actually love this park with the trees and the squirrels and the pussycats and any number of birds and some beautiful vegetation,” he said. “It’s very beautiful.”
the college find a new president. “I echo the entire board’s sentiment when I say that we were all counting on Jeff Shimizu to provide direction for the college at this crucial time,” SMC Board Chair Rob Rader said. Shimizu has coached football and baseball and volunteered with slew of programs aimed at supporting urban youth who play baseball. “Jeff has always been an advocate for faculty, and a bridge that facilitates dialogue between SMC’s various constituencies,” said SMC Academic Senate President Eve Adler. “Our college is fortunate to have his leadership during this important transition.” Shimizu told the board that he’s looking forward to collaborating on the “exciting programs” the college has in the works. He also said he’s happy he’ll have a chance to be around the student body. “That’s one thing I’ve missed out on all these years as a vice president,” he said. dave@smdp.com
In February, he watched as the Los Angeles County Sheriff, issued a warrant to evict two tenants. Waddington stood filming the proceedings as the two were given about an hour to pack up. The Daily Press was unable to locate the couple for comment. Millenium’s attorney Thomas Casparian, did not respond to requests for comment. Waddington says he can’t afford an attorney on his monthly income of $1,800. At his last court proceeding, he negotiated with the other side. He wants $200,000 and some time to move out of his trailer. He also wants the right to sue previous owners of the property. He claims that an agreement has been reached and that he’s waiting for a judge to approve it. The third holdout, which the Daily Press couldn’t reach for comment, has an attorney, Waddington says. When asked where he would go if he has to leave his beloved trailer, which is adorned with “Calvin and Hobbes” comics and photographs of friends, Waddington smiled. “Underneath a freeway bridge,” he said. “I’ll figure something out.” dave@smdp.com

the CIF Southern Section playoffs. Clark, who works in television production, was not a full-time employee in the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District. Attempts to reach him were not successful. Clark was expected to inform his players soon, district spokeswoman Gail Pinsker said Tuesday. He inherits a Lawndale squad that posted a 6-5 record this past season under coach Rick Mathiesen, who was recently dismissed after three years there. “Clark is truly a coach dedicated to prioritizing athletes’ academics and thus far has a 100-percent graduation rate,” Lawndale principal Paula Hart Rodas said in a news release. “We look forward to a new season and new energy for Lawndale football. We believe Coach Clark has the spark to ignite the Lawndale football program in a progressive direction.” For Clark, it’s the latest stop on a distinguished gridiron journey that has included both helmets and headsets. An all-CIF honoree during his playing days at Santa Monica, Clark continued his athletic career at Utah State University and led his college conference in interceptions two years in a row. He was named to the All-America third team as a safety. A former defensive coordinator at Inglewood who also served in assistant coaching roles at St. Monica Catholic and Samohi under Norm Lacy, Clark has been working the sidelines for about two decades.

Sudoku Fill in the blank cells using numbers 1 to 9. Each number can appear only once in each row, column, and 3x3 block. Use logic and process of elimination to solve the puzzle. The difficulty level ranges from (easiest) to (hardest).
GETTING STARTED There are many strategies to solving Sudoku. One way to begin is to examine each 3x3 grid and figure out which numbers are missing. Then, based on the other numbers in the row and column of each blank cell, find which of the missing numbers will work. Eliminating numbers will eventually lead you to the answer.

■ Can’t Possibly Be True: For a brief period in 1951 and 1952, an educational kit, the Gilbert Atomic Energy Lab, was for sale in the United States even though it came with testable samples of four types of uranium ore and three different radiation sources (alpha, beta, gamma). A surviving copy of the kit has been on display recently at the Ulster Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland, but the radioactive materials had to be removed before the kit could be shipped to Belfast. (The kit had failed to sell well; kids apparently preferred the company’s erector sets.)

■ In February, the Kansas Humanities Council, providing background to a current, traveling Smithsonian Institution exhibit, posted a description of a 1925 baseball game in Wichita in which the professional, all-black Wichita Monrovians took on members of the local Ku Klux Klan. (Historians guessed that the KKK risked the embarrassment of defeat only because it needed the exposure to overcome declining enrollments.) The Monrovians (champions of the Colored Western League the year before) won, 10-8, and the Klan shut down in Kansas two years later.

This year you are open to many fast changes. Others sometimes express frustration at your tendency to go back and forth with some issues. Use your sixth sense to determine what stance you should take. If you are single, you are likely to meet someone important to your life sometime after mid-August.

ON FEB. 24 AT APPROXIMATELY 3:45 P.M. A Santa Monica Traffic Service Officer (TSO) was issuing a citation to a parked, unoccupied vehicle for an expired meter in Parking Structure 10 (1125 3rd St.). Witnesses overheard loud yelling and saw a male suspect yelling derogatory statements and challenging the officer to fight. The officer left the area but the suspect got into his vehicle and pursued the Officer. The subject then blocked the officer's scooter (preventing his escape) and threatened to run him over. Santa Monica Police Officers arrived and questioned the suspect, officer and surrounding witnesses. The suspect was arrested for Challenging to Fight in Public and Suspended License. Adam Braid Young, 32, Palos Verdes, had bail set at $500.
