A Trump mandate? Clinton says give him ‘chance to lead’
LUVE lost in Santa Monica BY MATTHEW HALL Daily Press Editor
In an election that saw the national population explicitly reject the establishment in favor of an outsider, Santa Monica voters doubled down on the status quo.
Local voters rejected Measure LV and its author Armen Melkonians. Instead, voters chose the incumbents for City Council and backed several ballot measures that reinforce longstanding priorities around affordable housing and education.
The first ballot results for Santa Monica races were posted at about 8:25 p.m. on Tuesday night covering vote by mail ballots. Terry O’Day had 16.6 percent, Gleam Davis had 16.3 percent, Ted Winterer had 15.9 percent and Tony Vazquez had 15.5 percent.
As additional ballots were counted, the percentages remained almost unchanged. By the end of the night, the final tally was O’Day with 12,899 votes / 16.41 percent, Tony Vazquez with 12,551 votes / SEE RESULTS PAGE 3
Student protests spread in wake of Trump victory BY MATTHEW HALL Daily Press Editor
Hundreds of students protested on California campuses Wednesday following Donald Trump’s presidential victory. Students at Santa Monica College and Santa Monica High School staged impromptu walkouts Wednesday with many students citing feelings of danger created by Trump’s candidacy and the need to defend minorities against the threat of future discrimination. While some students heard about the protest through social media or word of mouth, others were drawn by the commotion. Enrique Ipina said he heard the noise and said he felt a sense of shared helplessness among the crowd. He said Californians feel disenfranchised after seeing Trump secure victory across so much of the country and that the Presidential outcome overshadowed what should have been celebratory feelings around raising cigarette taxes or discussions about legalization of marijuana. Ipina said he was struggling to find a way to have an impact on the future outcomes of a Trump Presidency. “The one thing we could do was vote and we did,” he said. Statewide, about 60 percent of

Californians voted for Hillary Clinton compared to 34 percent for Trump. Summer Sandhu said the protest allowed students to connect to each other. “You could see people sharing their personal stories and hear how that will change,” she said. Sandhu said Trump’s presidency would prompt a new wave of activism among young residents. “I would like to see how we can combat what he is dishing out and really what can we do to combat him. We haven’t had to do that in a while.” Edgar Gonzalez organized the SMC protest through his Home Boys and Home Girls club. The organization provides support for college students who are first generation students, previously incarcerated, recovering from addiction or otherwise in need of a safe space. “If we look sad, stay sad and don’t speak up, nothing is going to happen,” he said. “Nothing is going to change.” He said he has seen the power of educated protests through his work supporting the $15 minimum wage and that the Fight for $15 movement overcame significant inertia to become the law of the land. In this case, he said youth have a

Emboldened Republicans claimed a mandate Wednesday for President-elect Donald Trump after his astonishing election triumph, and an emotional Hillary Clinton told crestfallen supporters the GOP victor deserved a “chance to lead.” President Barack Obama pledged a smooth transition of power. “We are now all rooting for his success in uniting and leading the country,” the president said of the president-elect, the man who spent years questioning Obama’s birthplace and challenging the legitimacy of his presidency. Obama, who had declared Trump unfit for the presidency, invited him to the White House Thursday. Trump was uncharacteristically quiet in the aftermath of his triumph and made no public appearances Wednesday. He huddled with jubilant, sleep-deprived advisers at his eponymous skyscraper in Manhattan, beginning the daunting task of setting up an administration that will take power in just over two months. He also met with Vice President-elect Mike Pence and took calls from supporters, family and friends, according to spokeswoman Hope Hicks. After struggling for months with Trump’s takeover of their party, Republican leaders embraced the businessman in victory. House Speaker Paul Ryan, who was lukewarm in his support throughout the campaign, praised him for pulling off “the most incredible political feat I have seen in my lifetime.” “He just earned a mandate,” Ryan declared. Indeed, Trump will take office in January with Congress fully in his party’s control, giving him

particular interest in mobilizing because they will be more heavily impacted by Trump’s policies and that it is important for young residents to channel their energy into social causes. “This is the only way to spread awareness,” he said. “If we don’t take action, (students) don’t feel motivated or inspired.” Protests also erupted on other college campuses. Police says at least 500 people swarmed on streets in and around UCLA early Wednesday morning, some shouting antiTrump expletives. There were no immediate arrests. Smaller demonstrators were held at University of California campuses and neighborhoods in Berkeley, Irvine and Davis and at San Jose State. In Oakland, more than 100 protesters took to downtown streets. KNTV-TV reported that protesters burned Trump in effigy, smashed windows of the Oakland Tribune newsroom and set tires and trash on fire. The California Highway Patrol says a

strength to try to pass his agenda and turn the Supreme Court in a conservative direction. Even Republicans were stunned by the scope of their electoral success, including many who had been privately predicting Trump’s defeat. Clinton’s emotions were raw as she addressed a crowd of supporters, eyes wet with tears, who gathered in a New York ballroom. She said the crushing loss was “painful and it will be for a long time” and acknowledged that the nation was “more divided than we thought.” Still, Clinton was gracious in defeat, declaring that “Donald Trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead.” With several million votes still to be counted, Clinton held a narrow lead in the nationwide popular vote. Most of the outstanding votes appeared to be in Democratic-leaning states, with the biggest chunk in California, a state Clinton overwhelmingly won. With almost 125 million votes counted, The Associated Press tally had Clinton with 47.7 percent and Trump with 47.5 percent. Trump’s sweep of the battleground states that decided the election was commanding. He carried Florida, Ohio and North Carolina, three of the election’s biggest prizes, and snatched reliably Democratic Pennsylvania and Wisconsin away from Clinton. Trump’s support skewed older, male and overwhelmingly white. His supporters said they were deeply dissatisfied with the federal government and eager for change, according to exit polls conducted by Edison Research for The Associated Press and television networks. Global stock markets and U.S. stock futures plunged early Wednesday on word of Trump’s election, but later recovered. The Dow Jones industrial average was up more than 1 percent in late-day trading in New York. World leaders congratulated Trump on his victory. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
woman was struck by a car during the protest and severely injured. Students at Santa Monica High School also staged a walkout. “Earlier today, several hundred Samohi students left class and gathered at the campus Greek Amphitheatre to peacefully protest their disappointment with the results of the election for US President,” said District spokeswoman Gail Pinsker. “The students were chanting and speaking to each other and to administrators and staff who encouraged students to share their feelings, while keeping calm. Restorative Justice Coordinator Rob Howard, ASB President Brandon Hall-Pascascio, and Principal Dr. Antonio Shelton addressed the group acknowledging their feelings and encouraged these students to go back to class to share their thoughts and discuss in smaller groups. Dr. Shelton provided teachers with some suggested dialogue points so the students could freely share their thoughts and concerns in class.” THE ASSOCIATED PRESS AND MARINA ANDALON CONTRIBUTED TO THIS REPORT.

Netanyahu, who had a contentious relationship with Obama, called the Republican a “true friend of Israel.” British Prime Minister Theresa May said the U.S. and United Kingdom would remain “strong and close partners on trade, security and defense.” Russian President Vladimir Putin was among the first to reach out to the incoming American leader. Trump praised Putin throughout the campaign and advocated a closer relationship with Russia, despite Moscow’s provocations in Ukraine and elsewhere. U.S. intelligence agencies have accused Russia of hacking Democratic organizations during the campaign, actions Clinton’s team saw as an indication that Putin was trying to meddle in the election. Trump notably did not accept the conclusions of intelligence officials. If Trump makes good on his campaign promises, the nation stands on the brink of sweeping change in domestic and foreign policy. He’s pledged to repeal Obama’s signature health care law and pull out of the landmark nuclear accord with Iran. He’s vowed to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and temporarily ban immigration from nations with terror ties. It’s unclear whether Trump, a highly unusual candidate, will embrace many of the traditions of the presidency. He’ll enter the White House owning his own private jet as well as a hotel just blocks away on Pennsylvania Avenue. He never allowed journalists to fly on his plane during the campaign, and his team has not said whether he’ll change that practice in the White House. In Washington, Trump’s scant transition team sprang into action, culling through personnel lists for top jobs and working through handover plans for government agencies. A person familiar with the transition operations said the personnel process was still in its early stages, but Trump’s team was putting a premium on quickly filling key national security posts. Associated Press writers Bradley Klapper, Catherine Lucey, Jonathan Lemire, Lisa Lerer and Jill Colvin contributed to this report.

15.97 percent, Ted Winterer with 12,407 votes / 15.78 percent and Gleam Davis with 12,141 votes / 15.45 percent. The percentages for challengers also remained consistent from the initial count to the final announcement. Armen Melkonians ended the night with 7,870 votes / 10.01 percent, Oscar de la Torre had 7,308 votes / 9.30 percent, James T. Watson had 3,973 votes / 5.05 percent, Mende Smith had 3,385 votes / 4.31 percent, Terence Later had 3,379 votes / 4.30 percent and Jon Mann had 2,692 votes / 3.42 percent. Phil Brock had organized a last minute write-in campaign for city council. Write-in totals were not available Wednesday. Davis said she was humbled and honored to be re-elected. “I look forward to working with everyone in Santa Monica to keep Santa Monica a sustainable and livable place where all are welcome and all can thrive,” she said. Melkonians is founder of Residocracy and co-authored Measure LV. The initiative would have restricted development in Santa Monica by requiring a public vote on most projects. Measure LV was losing in the first update with the No campaign securing 4,379 votes / 55.54 percent and by the time all the votes were counted the measure was defeated with 16,237 voters / 56.19 percent voting No and 12,658 voters / 43.81 percent voting Yes. Measure LV was the only local initiative to fail. Measures GS/GSH will increase the local sales tax to provide money for schools and affordable housing. GS passed with 18,979 Yes votes / 70.02 percent to 8,126 No votes /
29.98 percent. Measure GSH passed with 17,238 Yes votes / 63 percent to 10,123 No votes / 37 percent. Measure SM strengthens the city’s anticorruption laws. It passed with 21,083 Yes votes / 82.65 percent to 4,426 No votes / 17.35 percent. Measure V issues a new set of bonds to finance remodeling and new construction by Santa Monica College. It passed with 20,401 Yes votes / 64.09 percent to 11,433 No votes / 35.91 percent. O’Day said it was an honor to continue to serve on the council and said Santa Monica continues to be a model for the rest of the nation. “We are providing a great quality of life and acting on our shared values of sustainability, lifelong learning and equity for our community,” he said. The only challenger to win a seat on an elected body was Caroline Torosis at the Rent Control Board. Torosis and incumbent Anastasia Foster were widely endorsed for the two open seats and both had the blessing of Santa Monicans for Renters Rights over challenger Elaine Golden-Gealer and incumbent Christopher Walton. Torosis finished the night with 10,252 votes / 34.10 percent, Foster had 9,179 votes / 30.53 percent, Golden-Gealer had 5,521 votes / 18.37 percent and Walton had 5,110 votes / 17 percent. With three seats available on the Santa Monica College Board, voters backed all three incumbents. Susan Aminoff had 16,995 votes / 28.29 percent, Margaret Quinones-Perez had 15,309 votes / 25.48 percent and Rob Greenstein Rader had 15,075 votes / 25.09 percent.

SYLVIA: Stephen Howard and Tanna Frederick in “Sylvia” at the Odyssey Theatre SOME OF OUR SMALLER LOCAL THEATRES
put on reliably good entertainment much of the time. Today a quick look at three of them. The Ruskin Group Theatre showcases Paul Linke, an actor/playwright/director whose original claim to fame came from the 70s TV show CHiPs, in movies (Parenthood, Motel Hell) and as the founder and artistic director of the legendary local (now late) Powerhouse Theatre in Santa Monica. His solo play, “Time Flies When You’re Alive,” later filmed for HBO, told the story of his first wife’s death from breast cancer and their abiding love for one another through it all. The word “time” appears in all six of Linke’s plays and “It’s Time,” now onstage at Ruskin, is devoted to his widowhood and meeting his second wife, Christine Healy. She gave up a successful acting career after falling in love with him and with his three children. They’ve been together for 26 years and she played the leading role in raising the kids, now fully grown. This is a heartwarming, moving oneman show and tribute to a woman who, it can truly be said, saved his and their lives. It’s warm, fuzzy, moving, meaningful but not schmaltzy. It’s most definitely worth your time and a few shekels out of your wallet. If you’re looking for something positive and personal to counteract the ugliness of this political season, look no further than Paul Linke’s “It’s Time” at Ruskin Group Theatre (Santa Monica Airport). Call (310) 397-3244 or www.ruskingrouptheatre.com for tickets. It runs through Dec. 4. HER LIFE AS A DOG
“Sylvia” is an odd play. In it, we watch a woman play a very lively dog who becomes the mid-life crisis of an empty nest husband, whose marriage is threatened by the presence of this stray pup. Tanna Frederick stars as the poodle mix mutt, a role she began portraying five years ago in Sierra Madre and has revived for a new production, which she also directs, at The Odyssey Theatre in West L.A. Although there’s no quibbling with the crazy energy she brings to the part (you’ll completely believe she’s a dog and the cos-
tumes are to die for), the play itself feels trite to me. A.R. Gurney wrote it and it made a splash in New York when Sarah Jessica Parker originated the role off-Broadway to good reviews. It’s been produced across the country, including a Coronet Theater production here in L.A. in 1997 with Stephanie Zimbalist, but it opened on Broadway in 2015 and closed three weeks early. I can’t say I liked the play but Frederick is outstanding, as is Matthew Marcy, who plays a tough guy in the dog park, a totally believable (if very tall) woman friend of the wife, as well as an ambiguously male or female psychotherapist (depending on who he/she is treating). The set is cleverly designed, the actors give it their all, and there are some laugh out loud moments. “Sylvia” is a guest production at the Odyssey Theatre in West L.A. Reservations at (800) 838-3006 or www.sylviatheplay.com. OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY
This play is billed as a comedy but I didn’t find much to laugh about. Written by Jerry Sterner and produced by LA’s InterACT Theatre Company, “Other People’s Money” tells the story of a corporate takeover by a rapacious Wall Street arbitrageur who is bent on winning, no matter the impact on the lives of those affected by destroying a small community’s main source of employment. Kudos to the actors who play the company president, the betrayed vice president, the loyal secretary (and boss’s lover), her daughter (a novice lawyer) and the arbitrageur “Larry the Liquidator.” But even with these lively performances, the play, to me, is depressing, a terrible reflection on American business and its heartlessness. Talk about stereotyping, I was immediately put off by the fact that the corporate raider is blatantly Jewish (he’s named Larry Garfinkle). And I also found myself questioning the lawyer who wants to beat him but instead ultimately joins him. Other reviewers have found more to love in this play than I. If you want to give it a shot (there were a lot of laughs from the SEE PLAY PAGE 5

town, be wary! And be afraid. Be very afraid. Garfinkle, known to his fellow Wall Street stockbrokers as “Larry the Liquidator,” is known to be ruthless, relentless, and rich. When he comes to town you can be sure somebody’s struggling business is about to be “restructured.” Larry, played bombastically by the excellent Rob Shapiro, is the central figure in Jerry Sterner’s marvelous play, “Other People’s Money.” Larry is a successful corporate raider who has come to a small Rhode Island town to investigate a company called New England Wire and Cable. Once a thriving plant with some 1200 workers, the company’s stock has been going down steadily and Larry likens the plant’s product to the buggy whip—-a useful product in its time but made obsolete by a changing technology. It is Larry’s plan to buy into the company, offer the shareholders up to twice what the stock is selling for and, as the new owner, close the business down and use it as a tax write-off. But this will inevitably devastate the town as the jobs of the workers are eliminated. Rising to oppose this plan is the company’s current head, Andrew Jorgenson, whose father founded the company. Jorgenson (a crusty and recalcitrant Kent Minault) has been running the company for nearly 40 years and is determined to keep it going, partly out of pride, but also to keep his workers from becoming jobless and the town from becoming a ghost town. Supporting Jorgenson are his devoted assistant, Bea (Amanda Carlin), who has worked for him and loved him for decades, and the president, or managing director, Coles (Peter Michael McDonald), who has worked for Jorgenson nearly as long as Bea has. And finally, the fifth character in this incredibly talented quintet, Kate (Robyn Cohen), the beautiful and brilliant lawyer who is Bea’s daughter. As clever and manipulative as Larry, she is persuaded to help Jorgensen hang onto his company. In response to the tactics that she suggests there arise the questions of basic loyalty to
your friends and family, to your shareholders, to your employees, and to the community; how to adjust to changes in the American economy and technology (can we, or should we, stop progress?); and what constitutes illegality or immorality. Meanwhile, Larry sees himself as Robin Hood. “I rob the rich and give to the middle class,” he says. He considers free enterprise economics the “survival of the fittest” and claims he doesn’t need the money, he just wants it “because it is there.” He describes his work as “legal, exciting, and fun” and adds that “the play is more about the game than the player.” In the end, Jorgenson, who believes in the loyalty of his stockholders, delivers a passionate speech about honesty, integrity, and supporting the community. Larry counters with an equally impassioned speech explaining and justifying his own activities, and the audience is left with enough thought-provoking arguments to last for a disturbingly long time. Jerry Sterner’s play is an earnest, extremely intelligent, beautifully written, and often funny play. And Oliver Muirhead’s direction complements the dialogue perfectly. But the outstanding ingredient in this emotional potpourri is the solid performances of the five actors. Each of them is extraordinary in his own way, and together they form, in my view, the very best acting ensemble to be seen currently in Los Angeles. Written in the 1980s and made into a film in 1991, this award-winning play, presented by the InterACT Theatre Company, is onstage for a limited run at the Pico Playhouse, 10508 W. Pico Blvd. in Los Angeles. Performances, starring two alternating casts, will be presented Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 3 through Nov 20.

Tales From Hi De Ho Comics Eddie deAngelini

The year of Stranger Comics SO FAR, 2016 IS TURNING INTO THE
The producers decided that the story didn’t fit in with the direction of the proposed series, but was much too good to waste. Enter Stranger Comics. Retitling the newly unearthed story ‘Message From Mars, Stranger Comics recruited Marvel’s “Agent Carter” writer Brandon Easton and artist Michael Broussard to bring this new installment of the Vampire Hunter D mythos to life. The first issue of the new comic series hits the shelves on Nov. 16, but you have a chance to get a copy before anyone else! This Saturday at Hi De Ho Comics, The Stranger Comics crew takes over the shop to bring you a very exclusive Vampire Hunter D: Message From Mars Launch Party. Along with two food trucks and a DJ, this event will be your chance to get some very exclusive copies of the first issue that you won’t be able to find anywhere else! You can meet Sebastian A. Jones of Stranger Comics and all of the creators of the new comic book series Vampire Hunter D: Message From Mars this Saturday Nov. 12 at 8 p.m. at the Vampire Hunter D Launch Party only at Hi De Ho Comics at 1431 Lincoln Blvd. This is a free event.
year of Stranger Comics. Stranger Comics emerged from the creative mind of founder and CEO Sebastian A. Jones almost a decade ago. With each comic book series they have released, Stranger’s nerd cred has continued to rise. Starting with their fantasy revenge epic The Untamed, their star continued to shine bright with their release of Niobe: She Is Life co-written by Amandla Stenberg of The Hunger Games hit film series. Stranger is gearing up for their next big thing, the return of the beloved cult classic Vampire Hunter D. The series, which began in the 1980s as a collection of novels by Hideyuki Kikuchi, commands an avid fan base in both Japan and overseas. Set in a far-off, post-nuclear war future in which science and black magic have created supernatural beings, a macabre, high-fantasy adventure unfolds around the graceful and powerful D as he prevails, over and over again, against evil. Recently, it was announced that Vampire Hunter D would return as a CGI anime series. While producers were researching material for the upcoming show, they uncovered a long forgotten and unpublished story of the character. Originally titled ‘Message From Cecile’, the story took place on the planet Mars.

Crime Watch is culled from reports provided by the Santa Monica Police Department. These are arrests only. All parties are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
ON OCTOBER, 29 AT AROUND 8:10 A.M. Officers responded to a report of a traffic hazard in the area of Neilson Way and Bay Street. The reporting party stated there was a female White, with blonde hair, walking in and out of traffic. When officer arrived, they located a subject matching that description in the 100 block of Bay St. Officers made contact with the woman and they immediately noticed the woman appeared to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Officers began to interview the woman but could not understand her due to her slurred speech. The woman eventually admitted to using methamphetamine earlier in the day. The officers placed the woman under arrest for public intoxication since the woman appeared to be unable to care for her own safety. Officers transported her to Santa Monica Jail when the woman became combative and tried to escape from the officers. The officers were able to gain control of the woman and book her into the jail. Cheyene Baternick of Temecula was arrested for public intoxication and resisting/delaying a peace officer. Bail was set at $10,000.

■ This week in 1984, Baby Fae became the first newborn recipient of a cross-species heart transplant when Leonard L. Bailey, a heart surgeon at Loma Linda University Medical Center in California transplanted a walnut-sized young baboon heart. Fae had been born prematurely 12 days earlier with hypoplastic left-heart syndrome, a lethal underdevelopment of the left side of the heart. Bailey suggested the experimental xenotransplant. Previous attempts with adults had provided less than four days of life at most, but Bailey thought the infant’s underdeveloped immune system might be less likely to reject alien tissue and a new drug, cyclosporine, would help. Baby Fae lived 20 days before complications caused her death.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 10)
By PETER GALLAGHER
Strange Brew
By JOHN DEERING
You’ll claim a victory in the next three weeks, priming you for a solar year of confidence. The winning attitude will spill over into your love life. Risks, adventure and fun fill the end of the year. In January, you’ll be called to take on a major responsibility. Compensation will be delayed until August. Aquarius and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 30, 22, 28 and 15.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
You crave someone’s love. Do you dare pause to ask why? Knowing the origin of this craving might not stop it, but there is something valuable to learn in the investigation.
You know that people from other cultures and backgrounds think differently. You’re surer of this than you are of being right in your own cultural views.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
Your mind power is quite real. Your intentions and attitude will cause you to move through the world accordingly and with an impact of body that changes particles, matter and thus, to some degree, the course of history.
As intellectually adept as you are, you’re always operating on a sensual level, too. The lighting affects you, as does the color, scent and overall attractiveness of things. Today you’ll find comfort in the beautiful.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
How someone longs to understand the mystery of your inner life. It’s not going to happen, at least not in any kind of substantial way, but if you offer up a glimpse into your thoughts and feelings you’ll make the relationship slightly easier.
You’re no minimalist, but you’re willing to let something drop in the name of simplicity. Also, a request has been made. So what goes? Note: Just because a thing is enjoyable doesn’t make it superfluous.
Agnes
By TONY COCHRAN
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) CANCER (June 22-July 22) People will reject something that doesn’t fit in with a number of other things they know to be true. To be persuasive you may need to change, soften or mold your idea to click in with what is already accepted.
Though you may prefer to be around positive role models, if they don’t show up, fret not! Reverse role models may work even better. Seeing what you don’t want will be among the strongest motivators.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Contradictions abound, and what does this mean? Maybe saying and believing contradictory things isn’t a sign that you’re getting something wrong. Maybe it’s a sign that you’re getting something right.
Dogs of C-Kennel
By MICK & MASON MASTROIANNI & JOHNNY HART
As you show appreciation for the solid people and felicitous circumstances of the day, a joy ignites in your heart, radiates through your body and rings out through the atmosphere. You are happiness, ground zero.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) When you feel something’s different about a relationship, this is no cause to panic. Different can be good -- even differences that don’t seem particularly favorable at first. Relationships that aren’t changing aren’t growing.
How might you get out of your uptight, rational mind? Have an experience that transcends it. Lean into the mystical. Reach into that which cannot be easily explained or completely understood.
Zack Hill
Last Day of Venus in Sagittarius Why wait until you’re in peril or you need something? On the last day of Venus in Sagittarius, reaching out is lucky, especially if you’re reaching out to total strangers. And as long as you’re making the connection, you might as well reach to the heavens, too. There just might be a legion of unseen guides waiting around for you to put them to work.
