HANDSHAKES WILL DO

E-WASTE OF TIME

Joe Biden’s mistake is a mistake this entire culture has been making for too many decades now. It is the mistake of informality and physicality which can be found in every workplace, meeting, greeting on the street and other forms of communication. We have become a society where the “bro-hug” has replaced the handshake; where people feel free to cry and express private emotions and thoughts in public; and where the word “love” is thrown around like so much confetti. We need a new level of formality, decorum and politeness in America, which starts with a return to ... dare I say it ... manners. The vice president should not have been so informal and touchyfeely with people, but then he is a product of a culture that has grown to be that way. This is a time when presidents cry at the drop of a hat, and everyone tells everyone how much they “love” them. It is not sexual assault or harassment to invade a person’s space in a time when so many people will hug people they have met for the first time, depending on the moment and gathering, but it is annoying, distasteful and it needs to stop. Democrats are upset at the way these accusations are being manipulated and exaggerated to the point of disgusting doctored videos of Biden with children, with implied suggestions that his actions are similar to Harvey Weinstein and Brett Kavanaugh. Frankly, many of us are upset that there is a clear political motivation to these attacks on Biden, and that they are coming from supporters of both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders. It is time for civility and intelligent discussion to return to the public square in America. It’s time to bring back the handshake and leave the hugs at home. ~ ERNESTO BARRERA

California State Assembly Bill 161 (AB 161) is not just a solution in search of a real problem, but it will create substantial new headaches for every small business owner in the state. AB 161 mandates — which is the legal term for “requires whether or not it makes sense for your business” — that every small business in California provide digital e-receipts on all transactions. The traditional paper receipt would only be available if the customer specifically requests it, and any business not in complete compliance with the new law would be subject to penalties — or worse, endless lawsuits. All that on top of backbreaking new costs for every business owner in order to be compliant. Here is the menu of ways AB 161 hurts small businesses and our customers: For starters, the out-of-pocket costs for business owners are enormous. The new system would require nearly every small business to replace their point-of-sale technology to comply with a mandated e-receipt. The estimated cost is $30,000-

VIA EMAIL

$45,000 per restaurant or store. That doesn’t even include the time and money to train and retrain employees. All of that adds up to increased costs for the business owner, which either means reduced hours for current workers, limitations on hiring or higher prices passed on to customers. Now, the main course: Privacy. In order for a business to complete a mandated e-receipt transaction with a customer, the customer would have to provide some personally identifiable information. Consumer data management isn’t the arena people like me want to be in, and the recent passage of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) means that every small business owner would be forced to take on massive and scary new liability regarding data security. Pushed into the data-privacy business by AB 161, too many small businesses will face this liability and not survive. Finally, there is the negative impact on customer experience — a critical component for any customer-facing business. Requiring consumer information like an email address or phone number will lead to confusing and even hostile interactions; increase wait times for people in line; negatively impact people who rely on paper receipts; and, worst of all, highlight and exacerbate the digital divide between the connected of California and the ones who are too young, too old, too digitally inexperienced, too nervous about government intrusion or simply prefer the convenience of paying cash without the requirement to provide yet another digital footprint. We are small business owners that faithfully serve our local communities. We are not billion-dollar technology startups. We are not data-privacy security firms. E-receipts are a fair choice for businesses that can afford to offer them and for consumers who choose to seek them out, but forcing small businesses to provide them will make it so much harder to successfully run our businesses, serve our customers and contribute to our communities. ~ JORGE A GUTIERREZ VIA EMAIL 05.02.19 | PASADENA WEEKLY 5

•HUTCHINSONREPORT• BY EARL OFARI HUTCHINSON

SINS OF THE PAST

I

BANKING ON ONCE CONTROVERSIAL JOE BIDEN TO PRY WORKING-CLASS VOTERS AWAY FROM TRUMP IS A BIG GAMBLE

’m not going to go biblical and self-righteously urge anyone who is without sin to cast the fi rst stone. However, that is just what’s happened with Joe Biden over the past few weeks. Biden has massive name recognition and the quasi-official imprimatur of centrist Democrats. That means he can bag a king’s ransom in campaign money. He’s got more official public experience than all the other Democratic contenders, which includes his well-regarded stint as Obama’s vice president. Even during his time as a nonpresidential candidate, polls showed him as someone who consistently topped the Democratic presidential contender field. He was widely believed to be the one, maybe only Democrat who could beat President Trump. Then it happened, with people pointing fi ngers at Joe for being too touchy feely, a hugger and a grabber of way too many women. This is a mortal sin in the #metoo era, but it didn’t halt the Biden bandwagon. What most may not remember is Joe committed perhaps his greatest political sins long ago in the two most potentially game-changing areas for a Democratic candidate: race and gender. As a relatively young senator in the 1970s, Joe opposed busing so loudly that he even briefly joined with one of the country’s most virulent racists, Mississippi Sen. James Eastland. Decades later, Biden has never really done much in the way of an apology for that, but he really need not do that, since there are a lot of blacks who also had doubts about whether busing did anything to improve the quality of education for their kids. Yet, his opposition tags him as a guy who has a checkered racial past and raises suspicion that he may still harbor some racial animus. That’s a ludicrous stretch, but it’s a point that almost certainly will be dredged up during the campaign. Then there’s gender. Joe can barely turn his head without someone hectoring him for not formally apologizing to Anita Hill. He’s expressed regret for how he did nothing to stop the manhandling of Hill when he was chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee during the Clarence Thomas SCOTUS confi rmation hearings in 1991. His failure to formally apologize to Hill for that alone wouldn’t be much of a campaign killer if in the next breath he weren’t attacked for his opposition to abortion while in the Senate. Biden eventually relented, had his epiphany on that issue and now is solidly pro-choice. As with busing, however, this will be trotted out again and again to paint him as a closet right to lifer or someone who can’t be trusted to be a staunch abortion rights fighter should the Supreme Court move to torpedo Roe v. Wade. In any other season, Joe’s past sins on these issues might not be a potential deal breaker. What’s different this time around is that no Democratic presidential contender has a prayer of wining the Oval Office without energizing middleincome college-educated suburban women and African-American voters in five or six must-win states. An enthusiastic turnout from both groups is the only thing that can partially neutralize the big turnout Trump will get from his base of less educated white male and female blue collar and rural voters in those states. The assumption is that Joe has enough working-class appeal to pry some of those voters away from Trump. That’s an untested and risky assumption. Countless surveys have shown that many of those voters aren’t in ecstasy over Trump solely because of his phony promise to bring back jobs. Their lovefest with him is based on race, or rather racial fear and naked bigotry. No amount of earthy tough talk from Joe is going to crack that with them. So that brings it back to revving up blacks and educated middle-class white women to vote in big numbers. The great lesson that should have been learned from 2016 is that banking on their loathing for everything that Trump represents won’t ensure anyone storming the polls to oust him. Joe will have to convince them that he’s the real deal in the fight for racial and gender justice. This is a tall order that will get even taller if Joe’s past sins on race and gender are held against him. ■ Earl Ofari Hutchinson is a political analyst and the author of “Why Black Lives Do Matter” (Middle Passage Press).

EVERY HEAD COUNTS ACTIVISTS, OFFICIALS WORRY ABOUT CITIZENSHIP QUESTION ON US CENSUS SURVEY BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

L

ocal activists are concerned that a controversial question about citizenship that could appear on the 2020 US Census questionnaire would be used to deport people. “The Trump administration wants to remake the composition of America according to their racist principles,” said local immigration activist Pablo Alvarado. “Obviously, they want less people of color. This was clearly stated by the president when he called immigrant countries ‘shithole’ countries.” The controversy surrounds the Trump administration’s plans to include the question, “Is this person a citizen of the United States?” Some believe that even if the question is not used to deport immigrants, the fear of potential exposure caused by the question could still have a devastating impact by causing a sizeable undercount. That, in turn, could reduce federal allocations by billions of dollars for numerous programs around the country, cost states in the number of seats they can hold in

the House of Representatives, and determine how many Electoral College votes each state gets. “We could lose some federal dollars that are distributed based on population,” said City Manager Steve Mermell. “In the bigger picture, there is a chance that California could lose a seat in the House of Representatives if the state is not counted properly.” “It will so severely damage the accuracy of the census that six states are at risk of losing a seat in the House of Representatives — California, Florida, Texas, Arizona, Illinois and, of course, New York,” said Dale Ho, director of the Voting Rights Project for the American Civil Liberties Union. Locally, the census is used to adjust and sometimes redraw local City Council and Pasadena Unified School District boundaries to make sure the city is complying with federal voting rights laws. In 1993, local political district lines were redrawn to create a district which increased voting opportunities for primarily

Acclaimed filmmaker and former Pasadena resident John Singleton died on Monday after his family removed him from life support following a stroke on April 17. He was 51. Born in Los Angeles on Jan. 6, 1968, Singleton attended Blair High School and later Pasadena City College before graduating from USC in 1990. Although several movies had been made about gang violence, Singleton’s 1991 film “Boyz N the Hood” was a critical and commercial success, leading to him becoming the first African American and youngest person to be nominated for best director. The movie was shot in sequence, and Singleton later commented that the last act of the film was better than the first part of the film because he did not know how to direct when he started, but learned along the way. “A brilliant young Pasadenan, John Singleton lived an extraordinary life. He contributed so much knowledge to the public discourse in America,” said Pasadena City Councilman John Kennedy, also a Blair graduate who had met Singleton several times. In 2014 Singleton criticized movie studios for “refusing to let African Americans direct black-themed films.” Singleton directed a reboot of “Shaft,” “Baby Boy” and “2 Fast 2 Furious,” the first sequel in the popular “Fast and Furious” franchise. “They ain’t letting the black people tell the stories,” Singleton said while speaking to students at Loyola Marymount University. “They want black people [to be] what they want them to be. And nobody is man enough to go and say that. They want black people to be who they want them to be, as opposed to what they are.” Recently he had moved to television where he co-created and produced the FX series “Snowfall,” detailing the rise of crack cocaine in South Central LA. His other television directing credits include work on “American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson,” “Billions” and “Empire.” Singleton is survived by his mother Sheila Ward, father Danny Singleton and children Justice, Maasai, Hadar, Cleopatra, Selenesol, Isis, and Seven.

COUNTY GRANTS 30-DAY EXTENSION OF ROUNDUP MORATORIUM

EVERY HEAD COUNTS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7

BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

A moratorium placed by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on the use of Roundup, a controversial herbicide containing glyphosate, a chemical believed to cause Kathryn Barger cancer, has been extended for another month. “The moratorium has been extended 30 days as Public Works needs more time to study the issue and access appropriate alternatives,” said Tony Bell, who serves as LA County Supervisor Kathryn Barger’s communication director. In March, Barger successfully introduced the original 30-day ban on the popular weed killer after the Pasadena Weekly reported that county workers were spraying the herbicide near a heliport in Northeast Pasadena. In 2015, the World Health Organization found that glyphosate “probably causes cancer.” The US Environmental Protection Agency does not consider the chemical a carcinogen. At a special meeting of the Pasadena City Council on March 27, Los Angeles County Public Works Director Mark Pestrella confirmed that county officials sprayed the weed killer in Hahamongna Watershed Park as part of a sediment removal project. The city of Pasadena stopped using Roundup in 2018, according to City Manager Steve Mermell. Communities in 13 states, including California, have placed restrictions or bans on Roundup. Some of the cities that have banned Roundup include Burbank, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Irvine and Thousand Oaks. In 2017, the city of Los Angeles’ Recreation and Parks Department stopped spraying the weed killer within 100 feet of children’s play areas, recreation centers and dog parks. According to the Department of Agriculture, in 2014 approximately 240 million pounds of glyphosate were sprayed in the US. As a result of widespread spraying, glyphosate has now been found to contaminate air, water and soil across vast expanses of the country. A proliferation of ads for the product recently hit the airwaves in Southern California on the heels of two lawsuits that ended in juries ruling against Bayer, makers of Roundup, and awarding hundreds of millions dollars to the plaintiffs. On Monday CNN reported that one analyst estimates that Bayer could wind up paying $2.2 billion in costs related to the remaining 13,400 lawsuits. n

TOXIC DEADLINE

STATE REFUSES TO GRANT CITY THREE-MONTH EXTENSION TO REVIEW CLEAN UP AT SPACE BANK BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

For the second time, the state Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) has refused to extend until July the review period on a work plan to remove toxic Terry Tornek substances from the soil beneath a local storage facility that could be torn down to make way for a housing development project. “DTSC has advised that while it will not extend the comment period as requested by the city, it will do so until May 14th,” according to a city staff report. Mayor Terry Tornek demanded the review period be extended after local residents expressed concerns about the state’s procedure. Previously, the DTSC agreed to extend the review period for 20 days after Councilman Gene Masuda requested a separate three-month extension. According to the staff report, the city has hired environmental consulting firm Alta Environmental to review the draft removal action work plan (RAW) and provide comments to the DTSC by the May 14 deadline after reviewing the environmental studies of the project site. The 550-unit project will include eight separate residential and mixed-use buildings, subterranean and above-ground parking structures, landscaping and 9,800 square feet of retail and restaurant space built on a former Navy torpedo testing site. The site, now a personal storage business called Space Bank, is at 3200 E. Foothill Blvd. Recent tests have revealed the presence of “hazardous materials in the soil and soil vapor, and potentially in groundwater beneath the property.” In correspondence to the city, a critic of the project called on Tornek to place the project back on the council agenda. “Although the developer promised the city repeatedly that he would do a ‘thorough and full cleanup of site contaminants’ — where hundreds of families and children will live — the documents released last week by California Toxic Substance Control show the site was never, and will never be, tested for RDX and TNT (explosives and propellants that are carcinogens and neurotoxins) which were used in 71% percent of weapons manufactured and tested onsite,” said opponent Dr. Kristin Shrader-Frechette, a Pasadena resident and an environmental science professor at the University of Notre Dame. n 8 PASADENA WEEKLY | 05.02.19

Latino residents living in an enclave which later became District 5. This was an area of the city which the 1990 census revealed was 27 percent Latino. Somewhat ironically Bill Crowfoot — who is white but grew up in Puerto Rico and speaks Spanish fluently — captured the council seat in the newly created district. His field representative Victor Gordo, who is Latino and speaks Spanish, is the district’s current council representative. Overall, Latinos account for about a third of the city’s population. “There are definitely going to be hurdles, but being counted is important,” said City Clerk Mark Jomsky. “We all have to do our best to make sure those communities are not dissuaded.” The census is also used to distribute some $880 billion in federal funds for such things as public education, health care initiatives, transportation projects, infrastructure repair and construction projects, homeless assistance and other public services. Population counts from the 2020 census will be used to determine how many congressional seats and Electoral College votes each state gets for the next decade. Practically since taking office, the president has railed against sanctuary cities that protect immigrants and threatened to withhold federal funds from cities that do not cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Pasadena has not been declared a sanctuary city, but has an established policy preventing police and other city employees from questioning people about their citizenship status. According to that policy, city employees who use official resources to collect and share information about a person’s immigration status could face disciplinary action. “The only people who can help others fill out census forms are census employees. City staff [members] are not allowed to help people fill out census forms, so city staff would not be asking this question of anyone,” said Pasadena Public Information Officer Lisa Derderian. Julianna Serrano of All Saints Church, which has declared itself a sanctuary church for immigrants, said she believes the census citizenship question is aimed at changing voting districts, thus producing dramatic political gains for conservatives. As for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), “I generally I do not believe they can be trusted,” said Serrano. “And in combination with the hateful anti-immigrant vitriol that is coming from our president, I believe anything is possible, including ICE getting access to

census info relating to non-citizens.” Across the state, other counties, including San Diego, San Bernardino and Riverside, have been encouraging residents to participate in the census. Those counties have formed what are being called Complete Count Committees (CCCs) which seek out immigrant communities and encourage residents to participate in the census. The city will put together its own CCC to help develop and implement a 2020 Census awareness campaign based upon their knowledge of the local community. City officials will work with the CCC, but will not go door to door asking citizenship questions. At a recent meeting of the City Council, Michael Khouri of the US Census Bureau said the census bureau does not share a respondent’s personal information with other agencies. Census employees could be sentenced to five years in prison and face a $250,000 fine for disclosing that information. Federal judges in Maryland, New York and California have already ruled against the administration’s proposal, but last week it appeared that the Supreme Court was leaning toward voting in favor of the question along party lines. The Trump administration has maintained that the question was added to collect more detailed citizenship data to enforce part of the Voting Rights Act. The district court judges concluded that was not the real reason for the administration’s lastminute push for adding the question. Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor questioned the administration’s justification for the question. “There’s no doubt that people will respond less” to the census if it includes a question about citizenship, Sotomayor said. Justice Elena Kagan, another liberal member of the court, called the need for a citizenship question “contrived.” Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch, both Trump appointees, pointed out questions about citizenship have appeared on the census in the past. “This is not benign information,” said Hermann Habermann, a former deputy director with the Census Bureau. “People’s lives are going to be affected by it.” Six of the bureau’s former directors, who have served under both Democratic and Republican administrations, have warned that adding a question about citizenship would jeopardize the accuracy of the population count. Trump, Alvarado said, intends to exclude millions of people from participating in the census even if it means violating the Constitution. “They want to instill fear in people,” he said. “We are going to encourage people to participate in the census. This is about representation and being

‘BACKSTAGE’ WITH BOB

BOB EUBANKS REVEALS HIS ROLE IN ROCK HISTORY WITH ‘BACKSTAGE WITH THE BEATLES’ SATURDAY AT THE ALEX THEATRE BY CARL KOZLOWSKI

GROWING UP IN PASADENA IN THE 1940S AND ’50S, BOB EUBANKS LOVED TO WATCH GAME SHOWS AND CONSIDERED CARY GRANT, HOWARD HUGHES, BUDDY HACKETT AND TOP GAME SHOW HOST BILL CULLEN AMONG HIS IDOLS. HE WAS A CHILD MODEL AS WELL, AND THE CONFLUENCE OF HIS PASSION FOR POP CULTURE AND HIS LOVE OF THE CAMERA COMBINED TO PREPARE HIM FOR A SEVEN-DECADE CAREER AS ONE OF THE MOST BELOVED RADIO AND TV HOSTS IN AMERICA. A member of the class of 1955 at Pasadena High School, Eubanks went on to become an indelible part of Pasadena’s worldwide image as the co-host for 40 years of KTLA Channel 5’s coverage of the Rose Parade. He was also the longtime host of the wildly popular TV game shows “The Newlywed Game” and “Card Sharks,” but his 1960s run as one of LA’s most popular radio deejays might have given him his most remarkable experiences.

‘BACKSTAGE’ WITH BOB CONTINUED FROM PAGE 09

While working the mic for KRLA 870 AM from 6 to 9 p.m. nightly, Eubanks saw and heard firsthand just how big the Beatles phenomenon was becoming. When the young rockers decided to tour America, they set their sights on performing at the legendary Hollywood Bowl, but no established promoter would meet their asking price of $25,000 for three nights of shows. Seeing a huge opportunity, Eubanks took the risk of borrowing that fee against the value of his home and stepped up to become the man who brought the Fab Four to one of America’s most famous concert venues. That gamble paid off with three sold-out shows that not only made Eubanks instantly wealthy, but started a long secondary career as the manager for other rock and country music icons, including Dolly Parton at her peak. Eubanks will be sharing his favorite stories from his three years working with the Beatles this Saturday at the Alex Theatre, when he presents “Backstage with the Beatles.” The 90-minute extravaganza combines his stories with rare video clips and footage of him and the band, in addition to live performances of several of the Beatles’ greatest hits by the tribute band Ticket to Ride. “The Beatles did ‘The Ed Sullivan Show’ in 1964, and 70 million people watched as they announced they would tour America,” recalls Eubanks, who started high school at Glendale High before switching to Pasadena High. “Their agents went through normal promoters and they turned them down because the Beatles wanted $25,000 and no one would give them that when Sinatra or Ella Fitzgerald were the top stars and made $10,000. “I borrowed it off my house and that’s how we could get them,” he continues. “Because I was in radio I could feel what was going on. The first concert we sold out in three and a half hours. I had asked the box office guy if we could sell out in a day and he said, ‘Are you kidding me? Maybe a week.’ Then after three hours he came to me and told me they were out completely.” Eubanks also took the Beatles to Dodger Stadium, where they were able to sell a healthy 40,000 seats but not quite sell out because they weren’t allowed to sell the centerfield bleacher seats. He still filled the bleachers by inviting schools and programs for the blind to bring participants there, where they could enjoy the excitement anyway by sitting next to the best part of the stadium’s sound system. Eubanks created the “Backstage” show a year ago and has presented it several times across Southern California, with plans to take it on tour across the country. He already keeps active by hosting “Hollywood’s Greatest Game Shows” and “The Not-So-Newlywed Game” in theaters from coast to coast. “’Backstage’ is a fun, one of a kind show, and I tell backstage stories from the Beatles shows,” explains Eubanks. “About 80 percent of them happened to me at the Hollywood Bowl in 1964 and ’65, and then Dodger Stadium was in ‘66. I tell stories that lead up to music, like talking about a very famous actress who wanted to meet John, and I told him ‘She loves you!’ Then, the band kicks right into the song ‘She Loves You.’ “I found a wonderful tribute band, Ticket To Ride,” he adds. “They are incredible. You can close your eyes and think it’s the Beatles. I’m so proud of the show because nobody else can do it. I’m one of the only people alive who produced a Beatles concert all three years they toured the US. All I can tell you is you will be shocked, amazed and entertained.” Eubanks parlayed his success with the Beatles into managing other rock bands including two years of Rolling Stones tours. However, as the destructive drug culture started

to dominate the rock and roll world, he switched to managing country artists in 1972 and handled Merle Haggard for 10 years in addition to the tours of Dolly Parton, Barbara Mandrell and Marty Robbins. The 81-year-old Eubanks currently lives in the San Fernando Valley with his wife, successful interior designer Deborah James, and their young son. He married her in 2004, two years after his first wife Irma passed away. His own life has quirky details that also shock, amaze and entertain, such as his career as a professional rodeo cowboy, and the fact that he was the last person to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in the 20th century. The winner of nine Emmy Awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Award and the broadcasting industry’s Golden Mic Award, Eubanks was also named by TV Guide as one of the top five game show hosts of all time. He was particularly beloved for “The Newlywed Game,” where he asked questions of newlywed couples that often involved a wink and a double entendre. “The producers wanted me to say ‘make love’ when asking about contestants’ sex lives, and I wouldn’t do it because I didn’t think you should have to explain that to your children until you want to,” says Eubanks. “So I said ‘making whoopee’ because it’s a way Frank Sinatra described that, and I figured that’s a little classier by being vague and funny and a parent could figure out a different explanation if their kids asked. “If you get dirty, you only have one place to go: dirtier,” adds Eubanks. “’Newlywed Game’ was the first time we looked into people’s bedrooms. I’m proud of what we did and I don’t think we did anything off color. It was a comedy show that happened to have a game.” Regarding his retirement from Rose Parade coverage in 2016, Eubanks admits having “mixed feelings” about his departure with co-host Stephanie Edwards. The two were legendary for their comical banter throughout the parade, and were replaced by the more straightforward team of “Entertainment Tonight” hosts Leeza Gibbons and Mark Steines in 2017. “We wanted to quit while we were ahead and our ratings were twice all the channels that showed the parade, combined,” notes Eubanks. “Vin Scully said he didn’t want to have someone tell him he had to go and that was the idea, so did we leave a little early? I don’t know. Mark and Leeza do a good job. I miss it a little bit, and so does my accountant.” After 64 years as a host on radio, TV and the stage, Eubanks has a strong idea of the key to success in that field. He notes that “a good host stays out of the way of the format, and is someone who works between the contestant and the audience. The moment the host tries to ‘out-star’ the contestant or format, they blow it.” He certainly hasn’t blown it in any of his colorful career moves. Asked about the key to his success in so many fields even into today, Eubanks notes that he has always made sure he was adaptable to necessary career shifts. “I have a theory in life that you have to take your strengths and apply them in other areas,” says Eubanks. “I’ve been in the rodeo world a while as a ranch owner, and then took my knowledge of horses and put it to work with the Rose Parade. “You keep reinventing yourself,” he concludes. “No one will hire me to do a game show now, so I take a live one on the road called ‘Hollywood’s Greatest Game Shows,’ which is our version of nine different games. That’s just a lot of fun, but the Beatles show is where my heart is.” ■ “Backstage With the Beatles” is performed at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 4, at the Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale. Tickets are $25 to $70, with $100 VIP tickets including a pre-show reception with Bob Eubanks and Ticket to Ride. Call (818) 243-2539 or visit alextheatre.org. 05.02.19 | PASADENA WEEKLY 11

LOVEBIRDS CAFE & BAKERY AND LEBERRY BAKERY COOK UP THE PERFECT WEEKEND BY EVELYN GARCIA / PHOTOS BY DANNY LIAO

12 PASADENA WEEKLY | 05.02.19

ollowing a week of spring break vacationing, Easter and a family birthday, I was literally fed up with coma -inducing meals and chocolate. Quinoa and smoothies are all I’ve been daydreaming about in the last few days, but alas, after planning to enjoy a light lunch the dining columnist got the better of me. I walked away having tried four different desserts to cap off my “light” meal at two different bakeries in Pasadena. While balling hard and ordering varieties of everything is unabashedly great, minus the very confused glances from patrons and staff as I hover over my three entrees like Gollum protecting his precious, it does still leave my pants tighter and wallet lighter.

Since I wanted lunch, I started at Lovebirds Cafe & Bakery which is tucked away from Old Pas on Colorado Boulevard. While parking is a challenge, with only a few one-hour spots out front on Colorado Boulevard, inside has more than enough seating. The large room has a glass case fi lled with heavenly looking baked goods — pastries such as croissants, macarons, Danishes, muffi ns and more. After staring too long at the rows of flaky treats, and with suggestions from the patient cashier, I ordered half of the chicken basil sandwich and half of the Asian salad ($13). Their half sandwiches look more like three fourths of a sandwich, enough to be eaten on their own, and an option on the menu ($6.95). The chicken basil had mixed greens, avocado, basil, provolone, tomatoes on sourdough. While this is a standard, uncomplicated sandwich, it hit all the right spots and I came away convinced their toasted, homemade sourdough made all the difference. Their menu boasts that the breads at Lovebirds are made in-house, and along with sourdough include seven grain, rye, egg bread, pumpernickel, ciabatta, baguette, Dr. Snyder, English muffi n and flatbread, in whole wheat or spinach. Finally, someone who loves bread as much as I do. Another suggestion was the Asian salad as I looked over their selection of Caesar, spinach, Greek, and Cobb salads among others. I’m glad I ignored my gut instinct and went with the Asian, although how crazy can one actually get with salads? The dressing was sweet and flavorful, the chicken was served in a generous portion, and I ate the whole meal without realizing how quickly it all happened. Lucky for me it was fi lling without being overwhelming, so, against my better judgment, I made my way back to the baked goods that were calling my name. Despite an overabundance of options, they didn’t have their full list of treats the Saturday I visited since they are closed Sundays to avoid waste, but I wouldn’t have noticed. Although the cinnamon roll looked like an edible pillow, I went with the seven-layer bar ($3) to save room for my next trip. It was chilled, but had the perfect

combination of chewy, crunchy, chocolatey goodness I could only hope for. Comfortable and easygoing, Lovebirds is a sure bet to enjoy a meal without any fuss. They also make lattes, smoothies, and sell GroundWorks coffee blends. They even have an extensive and inexpensive breakfast menu. Only one item on the breakfast menu is more than $10, and that is their steak and eggs. Everything else sounds amazing, and if it's anything like the lunch I had, surely necessary to try on my next visit. Just up the street is a new business, LeBerry Bakery, which is more indulgent than Lovebirds when it comes to serving unique treats. Leberry opened just more than two months ago, yet has garnered attention with the picture-perfect dessert concoctions they create. Donuts range anywhere from $3-$5 and even come in vegan and gluten free options, as well as regular, which is not all too common in the world of donuts for sale. While flavors vary, I ordered a vegan vanilla glaze with chocolate drizzle, a glutenfree classic glazed topping (although in a bluish pink hue), and two regulars; a blood orange donut with pistachios on top, and a hot chocolate flavor topped with miniature marshmallows. It should go without saying, but I took them to go and shared with my family. Each was completely different, but all were amazing. The gluten-free was defi nitely not quite like the others, but still delicious. My personal favorite, as well as the group’s, was vegan because of the mouthwatering glaze alone. Unlike most bakeries I know of, LeBerry’s also serves mimosas and has eight beers on tap. That’s right: Here, it appears, the only thing better than munching on donuts is doing so with a glass of beer. The only down side to all of this is the lack of seating, with only a few hightop tables and chairs. Still, Leberry Bakery is somewhere I’d like to be on any given weekend. The two bakeries — only a few minutes from one another — are guaranteed good food, good treats, and above all a good time, whether that be a study or work session, or a donut and a mimosa with friends.

SETTING BOUNDARIES COMMENTS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL INFERIOR MASK ANGER LURKING BENEATH THE SURFACE AND CONSTITUTE PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR

Dear Patti, I met Jasmine a year ago when we started high school together and liked her a lot. But now it seems like every time I see her I leave feeling angry. She’s always putting me down in front of our friends “as a joke.” Last night she said she’s gained 10 pounds but it was OK because she’s still 20 pounds lighter than me. I was so mad I felt like punching her! She says things like this all the time and it drives me crazy. If I confront her, I know she’ll just say that I’m too sensitive and she didn’t mean anything by it. What do I do? — Mila Dear Patti My brother-in-law is a great guy in a lot of ways. He adores my sister and their kids but he can be frustrating to be around. He constantly gives these backhanded compliments. He’ll comment on how nice our house is, but then point out how the windows could have been installed better, how the kitchen is cozy but isn’t up to code, there’s a crack in the wall, and on and on. Recently after the tenth negative comment, my wife couldn’t hold it in any longer. She lost her temper and told my sister off about her husband’s comments. My sister insisted that he did nothing wrong and now my wife and sister have stopped talking. How do we keep from blowing a gasket every time this guy starts nitpicki — Alexander Dear Mila and Alexander, First, let’s look at the difference between anger and aggression. Anger is an emotion one experiences in his/her body in response to feeling pain or threatened. Anger is resentment against being hurt. If one’s anger is consistently repressed, anxiety or depression may occur. Aggression, on the other hand, is an impulse and/or behavior of striking out toward another when angered. Importantly, one can experience and process anger and an aggressive impulse without being outwardly aggressive. Passive-aggressive behaviors are those that involve acting indirectly rather than directly. A passive-aggressive person realized long ago as a child that it was unsafe to acknowledge or express anger or aggression to one’s self or others. Instead, they learned to strike back at others in an indirect way. After interacting with a passive-aggressive person, you might not be able to explain exactly what happened. You just know that you end up feeling angry. This anger may be directed toward the passive-aggressive person or even toward yourself, leading to self-attack. Examples of passive-aggressive behavior include avoiding direct communication, evading problems or competition, making excuses, blaming others, feigning compliance with requests, sarcasm, and backhanded compliments. A well-timed witty comment among friends may be good humor. A knowledgeable comment about how to re-enforce your home could be helpful. But comments that make you feel inferior and attack your self-esteem mask anger lurking beneath the surface and constitute passive-aggressive behavior. After being on the receiving end of these remarks, it’s not uncommon to feel as angry as if someone aggressively assaulted you. Often it is healthy to “say ouch when it hurts” and speak up for yourself. However, passive-aggressive behavior cannot be addressed in the same way you might handle aggressive behavior. When dealing with someone who is consciously or unconsciously seeking to make you angry, it’s not wise to express those emotions to them directly. Although you should never lie to yourself about what you feel, it will be more productive to vent those feelings to a therapist or trustworthy friend after the experience. Remember, the underlying purpose of passive-aggressive behavior is to make you respond back in anger. The less likely the person is to achieve that goal, the more likely there will be a reduction in their behavior. Instead, try indirectly confronting them, using “I” statements instead of “you” statements, and remain very calm. There may be times when you do need to speak up and assert boundaries. For example, you might say “In the future, please don’t make comments about our home, positive or negative.” The passiveaggressive person may retort that your request is ridiculous because they were only trying to help. Without anger just repeat your boundary: “I understand, but it’s best that we leave comments about our home out of the conversation.” Try not to give into acting out aggressively and stoop to the other person’s level. n Patti Carmalt-Vener, a faculty member with the Southern California Society for Intensive Short Term Psychotherapy, has been a psychotherapist in private practice for 23 years and has an office in Pasadena.

CAMPAIGN COMEDY

POLITICAL SATIRE TROUPE CAPITOL STEPS MAKES ANNUAL CALTECH STOP SATURDAY BY CARL KOZLOWSKI

I

t may seem hard to believe, but there was a time in Washington, DC when Republicans and Democrats not only tolerated each other, but actually had fun together. Perhaps the greatest example of this bipartisan camaraderie was found at a December 1981 meeting to plan entertainment for then-Sen. Charles Percy’s Christmas party. The initial idea was to stage a nativity play, but that idea was scrapped in favor of a sketch comedy show riffing on the year’s political news when the staffers realized they “couldn’t find three wise men and a virgin in the entire city.” And so it was that the staffers teamed up with other comically minded Capitol Hill staffers to establish the Capitol Steps comedy troupe, and their show proved to be so popular it has become a national phenomenon for nearly 40 years.

One of the Steps’ most popular annual tour stops is Caltech’s Beckman Auditorium, where they will be performing shows at 3 and 8 p.m. Saturday in their “Make America Grin Again” tour. The title is shared with their 35th album of song parodies, continuing a tradition that has successfully managed to make fun of both parties and their followers laughing with every fresh update on the insane political climate we live in. “A fair number of people were coming to our shows asking if politics were funny anymore, and can we really laugh at this?” says Elaina Newport, who has performed with the Steps since their founding. “They wind up saying, ‘I wasn’t sure I could still laugh after arguing on FB, but I came here, laughed and feel better.’ That was the initial reaction after the election, but now they see this reCONTINUED ON PAGE 18

CAMPAIGN COMEDY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17 ally is absurd.” Newport has seen plenty of changes in her 37 years with the troupe, but the group has always strived to aim their satire at leaders of both parties while using a nonstop array of ridiculously bad wigs to portray dozens of newsmakers in each show. All told, the Steps have counted staffers from 18 different congressional offices among their ranks and represent 62 years of House and Senate staff experience. Featured on NBC, CBS, ABC and PBS, they can also be heard twice a year on National Public Radio stations nationwide during their “Politics Takes a Holiday” radio specials. Newport herself worked for seven years as a legislative assistant to the Republican lawmaker Percy as well as the iconic former Republican US Sen. Alfonse d’Amato, but considers herself a moderate and is married to a former appointee of President Bill Clinton. “We performed at that first party and thought we might get fired or someone would tell us to stop. As neither happened, we just kept going and doing events here and there,” explains Newport, who notes that the Steps perform shows on Fridays and Saturdays year-round at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington. “About four years into performing, someone offered us money to play a law firm dinner. “We thought it would be nice to finally be able to reimburse performers for parking, so we did it,” she adds. “From there, we started getting offered more jobs to play banquets and dinners that needed entertainment. We never had that moment of sitting and deciding to form a business. The Capitol Steps just grew over time.” The current show opens by taking on the ridiculously large Democratic presidential candidate pool with a spoof of the song from “The Music Man,” “76 Trombones,” 18 PASADENA WEEKLY | 05.02.19

with “76 Unknowns.” Former Vice President Joe Biden’s controversial love of being “handsy” with women and children is noted in “Can You Feel the Rub Tonight,” while fellow candidate Pete Buttigieg is called “Mayor Joe” in a song “because nothing rhymes with Buttigieg.” Newport also notes that the Steps also do songs and sketches about non-political figures and issues, such as “dating in the age of swiping left and right on Tinder,” airport security (tackled by the tune “Pack the Knife”) and environmentalism. She hopes they can think of a song for Rick Perry, the often-clueless former Texas governor turned Secretary of Energy, because of the fact he’s in charge of America’s nuclear arsenal, and of the way that President Trump hated the Mueller Report until it appeared to largely clear him. “We definitely have something for everyone, not just Trump-bashing like so many shows,” says Newport. “If you’re sick of seeing Trump, you’ll see him for five songs and then it’s on to other things. Of course we do Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and double use our Ruth Bader Ginsberg wig for her hair. “The real star of the show is the person who pulls the props,” adds Newport. “You can’t buy a Bernie Sanders or an AOC/ RBG wig — you have to adapt a perfectly good wig. And how do we keep Donald Jr’s hair wet all the time? And while this is a family-friendly show for those kids who love politics, be warned that Vladimir Putin still appears shirtless in our shows and our actors do not work out. So that’s a whole other kind of nudity warning.” n The Capitol Steps perform at 3 and 8 p.m. Sat. at Beckman Auditorium ” on the Caltech Campus, 332 S. Michigan Ave., Pasadena. Tickets are $39 to $49, with $10 tickets for youth. Call (626) 395-4652 or visit Caltech.edu.

EVERCLEAR FRONTMAN AND PASADENA RESIDENT ART ALEXAKIS AND FRIENDS GO ACOUSTIC AT THE ROSE

rt Alexakis may describe himself as a “curmudgeon,” but the longtime Pasadena resident launched into a recent conversation with commentary about local wildlife — specifically, parrots and peacocks — that was far from grouchy. “When I lived over between PCC and Caltech, I used to go out and smoke my cigar in the backyard at six in the morning,” he recalls, warming up to his story as he describes glaring at wild parrots that would cluster on nearby trees and phone wires at that hour. “The parrots would scare away other birds and animals.” These days the 57-year-old Everclear frontman and his wife live closer to the mountains, and kick back in the backyard with their Yorkies while listening to wandering peacocks screech around the neighborhood. He savors those domestic idylls all the more thanks to his tour schedule. Everclear has remained a steady focus since scoring an alt-rock hit in 1995 with “Santa Monica,”

but Alexakis is also preparing to release his first solo record, “Sun Songs,” by early August or possibly September. “I produce everything. I don’t answer to anybody. I’m just kind of a cantankerous ne’er do well,” he says with a laugh. “Let’s go for antiquated words: curmudgeon. I’m a creative curmudgeon. But I let the label [The End] figure out when it’s advantageous to them to work it. They’ll sell enough to make it worthwhile for them, and they’re gonna stream it and get placements and do that stuff. That’s just the new world. That’s how the music business works now. … “I’m doing the solo tour now, the Songs and Stories tour, we’ll be playing Everclear shows all summer, and then I’m gonna do a solo tour of the UK to set up next year. We do the ‘Songs From an American Movie, Vol. One’ 20th anniversary tour in the States, in the UK, and in Australia.” The “Songs and Stories” title of the solo tour that brings him to The Rose next Thursday sums up

what distinguishes “Sun Songs” from Alexakis’ decades-long body of work with Everclear. New songs like “California Blood” traverse similar terrain, identifying with Southern California’s character and ethos, but he’s presenting them in an altered frame. “I’m playing everything: drums, bass, all acoustic guitars, all acoustic bass, some keyboards, a little slide guitar,” he explains. “But no electric guitars. So it’s different in that sense. It still has a rock feel to it on a couple songs, but not heavy. I’m concentrating more on the stories, and the vocals are louder than normally. “It’s me writing songs and singing songs just like Everclear, so is it reinventing the wheel? No, it’s not. But is it a different facet of what I do as an artist? Yeah, I think so, for sure.” n Art Alexakis headlines at The Rose, 245 E. Green St., Pasadena, 8 p.m. Thursday, May 9; $28/$38/$48.

Born and raised in Temple, Texas, he soaked up the sounds around him, and started playing at an early age. By the time he was in his early teens, Hernandez was playing guitar and singing in his cousin’s band, David Coronado and the Latinaires. After Coronado left the band, Hernandez became the leader and renamed it Little Joe and the Latinaires. After that band recorded on various Tejano labels in the 1960s, Hernandez eventually renamed it Little Joe y La Familia in 1970. Along the way, the band incorporated elements of rock, country, blues and norteño music, and they received several Grammy nominations, winning five in all.

TANIKA CHARLES, The Gumption (Record Kicks): HH½

The Juno-nominated Canadian soul artist turns to ’60s Motown for inspiration; “Love Overdue” and the harmony-draped “Upside Down” snappily evoke the Supremes, while “Remember to Remember” nods to Lipps, Inc.’s ’70s chestnut “Funkytown.” The overloaded “Cadillac Moon” veers off the road, but tracks like “Cool Scorpio,” the ska-kissed “First & Last” and Marlon James-composed “Always Restless” showcase Charles’ tonal warmth and lightly precise touch while stylistically bridging generations with electronically sculpted arrangements. tanikacharles.com

CAROLINE SPENCE, Mint Condition (Rounder): HHHH

Like her performances and poetic songwriting, Spence’s lack of pretension informs her third full-length album. Less haunting, more assured than 2017’s sublime “Spades & Roses,” it finds the Virginia native stretching as composer (“Who Are You”) and vocalist (the soulful “Wait on the Wine”) with the instincts of a gambler unfolding a handful of aces, as guitarist Dan Knobler’s discerning fretwork complements her graceful melodies and acoustic playing. “Sometimes a Woman is an Island,” “Who’s Gonna Make My Mistakes,” “Sit Here and Love Me” and “Angels or Los Angeles” smolder with earned wisdom, while Emmylou Harris’ harmony on the lilting title track signals benediction of integrity and song. carolinespencemusic.com

A worthy meeting of border-bridging spirits between Americana luminary Giddens and Italian jazz multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi, recorded in Dublin. The thought-provoking material and Giddens’ rich vocal tones are well served by the clarity of Joe Henry’s production, and unobtrusive arrangements of banjo, frame drum, accordion, and cello (courtesy of Irish cellist Kate Ellis). Yearning for connection binds the songs, from Giddens’ “Ten Thousand Voices” through Appalachian traditional “Wayfaring Stranger,” the gorgeous “Trees on the Mountains,” Oscar Brown Jr.’s “Brown Baby,” and closer “He Will See You Through,” the crystal notes of Turrisi’s piano during the latter girding grief with hope like melodic balm. rhiannongiddens.com

SOUTHERN AVENUE, Keep On (Concord): HHH

“You get what you put out/ You’ve gotta keep on,” declares frontwoman Tierinii Jackson on the title track, imprinting this Blues Music Awardwinning Memphis quintet’s sophomore album with a rousing statement of purpose. It leads this confident follow-up to their self-titled 2017 debut, polished with dynamic performances (and guests like William Bell and horn-playing alumnus of Gregg Allman’s and J.J. Grey’s bands) that comfortably occupy the nexus of blues, R&B and gospel. Those performancesoutshine the songs, but standouts like the title track, “The Tea I Sip,” “We’ve Got the Music” and swoony “We’re Gonna Make It” promisingly point upward. southernavenuemusic.com

Escape to the Movie HARRY HOUDINI’S LONG-LOST FILM ‘THE GRIM GAME’ SCREENS FRIDAY AT SIERRA MADRE PLAYHOUSE BY CARL KOZLOWSKI The Sierra Madre Playhouse has built a reputation over the past 40 years for producing both classic and quirky plays and musical shows with a small-town charm that’s unique to the Los Angeles area theater scene. But before it became the home of colorfully concocted live events, it was a movie theater from 1924 until the early 1970s. On Friday, it will be a movie house once again when it screens an extremely rare and fascinating film, the long-lost feature film “The Grim Game,” one of only five movies starring the legendary magician-escape artist Harry Houdini. Packed with action and stunts, and featuring actual footage of an accidental crash between two biplanes that occurred during filming, the film had nearly been lost forever before the Turner Classic Movies (TCM) cable network bought and restored it in 2015 — and then only aired it once. “‘Grim’ was made in 1919 and was the best film of the five Houdini did,” explains John Cox, an expert on Houdini who will introduce the film. “Many silent movies have disappeared and this one was on the way out, with only one known print that was privately owned and was a really poor 16mm version showing signs

of real damage. “The Houdini Museum in Scranton, Pennsylvania formed a coalition with TCM to buy it back and restore just months before the print’s owner died,” Cox adds. “I’m going to be introducing the movie and talking about Houdini and the movies he made. It’s been restored and is in great shape, but it’s never been on DVD and streaming, so it’s one great movie you can’t watch at home. The only way to see it is at the playhouse.” The 71-minute “Grim” is an adventure film about a young man who is unjustly jailed for a murder he did not commit and then has to use his amazing powers of escape to get free and pursue the actual killers, who hold his fiancée captive. The silent film will feature a live music score by prominent silent film accompanist Michael Mortilla and violinist Nicole Garcia, with Mortilla also giving a short talk on the importance of music in silent films. Cox runs the popular wildabouthoudini.com website and is considered the preeminent scholar on the famed escape artist’s life. He became intrigued by Houdini when he saw the 1953 biopic “Houdini” airing on TV in the 1970s at age 10, and “went on a quest to find out as much about Houdini as I possibly could.”

Since then, he has parlayed his expertise into not only running his dailyupdated site, but serving as a consultant on numerous film and TV projects about the magician. He claims that he finds something new nearly every day that he applies to an upcoming book on Houdini, and believes there is more fresh information to be found about him than if he were running a blog on Lady Gaga. “The five movies that Houdini made were an example of a Hollywood experiment that didn’t work out,” says Cox. “But ‘The Grim Game’ is the most entertaining of all of them, and the biplane crash has to be seen to be believed. “As written, Houdini was supposed to swing on a rope from one plane to another,” he continues. “That was the plan, but the two planes collided in mid-air with a stuntman hanging on a rope between them. They crash landed, so they rewrote the movie to incorporate it. It became a huge part of the film’s hype, that it was the only movie to feature a real-life plane crash.” n “The Grim Game” screens at 8 p.m. Friday at the Sierra Madre Playhouse, 87 W.

n a time when comic book superheroes are the bravest figures we have, the new documentary “Hesburgh” reminds us of the remarkable impact that just one person can have on the greater good. Recounting the life story of Father Theodore Hesburgh, the Catholic priest who headed the University of Notre Dame for 35 years while engaging six US presidents on issues ranging from nuclear arms to civil rights, the film provides a fast-paced look at American history as a whole in the second half of the 20th century. The film is narrated throughout by segments from Hesburgh’s journals read by Maurice LaMarche, recounting the priest’s intimate thoughts from a remarkable life in which he was close friends with not only Pope Paul VI but, with the exception of Gerald Ford, US presidents from Dwight D. Eisenhower to Ronald Reagan. Those relationships enabled him to have great influence on policies on major issues, and “Hesburgh” makes it clear he was also a passionate thorn in the side of all those figures as well when he felt it necessary. Opening with photos of his childhood in Syracuse, it is made clear early on that Hesburgh had a tightknit family and was particularly close to his sister Mary. He notes that he knew from the age of 6 that he wanted to be a priest, amid the post-World War II era in which the clergy was a heroic field to join. He began his career as a military chaplain, but in 1952 received the order to become president of the University of Notre Dame. The college was not well-respected when he entered, so he opted to “shake things up” by placing more focus on academics rather than just the school’s famous Fighting Irish football team and ousted deans and faculty upon arrival. While most priests were averse to fundraising, Hesburgh had a gift for mingling with the rich and powerful and quickly turned Notre Dame into a major national force. But aside from fundraising, his outspoken opinions on the morality of sociopolitical issues inspired President Eisenhower to appoint him to a US Commission on Civil Rights, which developed much of what became the Civil Rights Act of 1964. He was also enabled to serve as an informal mediator between the US and the Soviet Union amid growing tensions. Throughout, Hesburgh drew controversy for many of his stances, particularly from the Vatican when he refused to bow down to strong new rules that sought to limit what Catholic universities could teach or comment on in classrooms. He tried to establish a balance between academic honesty and spiritual purity that would eventually set an example for other Catholic colleges. His final controversy came when he publicly approved of Notre Dame’s invitation for President Barack Obama to deliver a commencement address. Because of Obama’s openly pro-choice stance on abortion, many Catholics considered the invitation to be morally inappropriate, but Hesburgh not only endorsed the speech but was commended by Obama 24 PASADENA WEEKLY | 05.02.19

while seated in the front row. “Hesburgh” packs a lot of fascinating stories into its 106-minute running time, spotlighting a man who many might otherwise forget in the time since his death at age 97 in 2015. Director Patrick Creadon moves things at a rapid yet manageable clip in order to pack in as much of his amazing tale as possible, and uses a stunning array of historical footage and photos throughout. In fact, the film often feels like a real-life version of “Forrest Gump” or Woody Allen’s “Zelig” because of the incredible array of famous figures that he interacted with en route to effecting major change in both America as a whole and Catholic universities’ interactions with the Church government in the Vatican. There are some highly effective quieter moments as well, as Creadon looks at Hesburgh’s relationships with his students. Many recall that if his office light was on at 2 a.m., Hesburgh didn’t mind if students climbed the fire escape to come speak with him. The most emotionally stirring tale comes from famous journalist and author Robert Sam Anson, whose close friendship with Hesburgh as a student paid off when the priest personally called Pope Paul VI to negotiate on Anson’s behalf when the writer was captured by Cambodian forces while on assignment there during the Vietnam War. Anson was released after three weeks, and acknowledges that Hesburgh’s call to the pontiff saved his life. It might be easy to label Hesburgh as politically liberal, but the film also makes it clear that his views were more complicated than that. For instance, he instituted policies to limit student protests during the Vietnam War that forced suspensions or expulsions upon those who would not stop after being given a 15-minute warning to disperse. Many other colleges nationwide followed his lead in order to quash dissent and restore order to their campuses. One aspect of the film that seems lacking, however, is that it makes no mention of the fact that Hesburgh’s peak era of the 1950s and ’60s was also the time when most of the Catholic Church’s abuse scandals were taking place. While I’m not questioning Hesburgh as being part of such behavior, surely a clergyman of his stature had to know what was occurring behind closed doors and committed the sin of omission of looking the other way. Aside from its wondrous use of footage and photos, the two best elements of “Hesburgh” are its narration and its musical score. Narrator LaMarche makes the recollections of Hesburgh come alive in compelling fashion, while composer Alex Mansour applies a terrific and boisterous jazz score to underscore the fast-paced life and times of an international force of nature. As a history of one man who used his life in a quest for what he deemed positive social changes, “Hesburgh” offers an engaging and entertaining look back at the biggest events of the 20th century’s second half. n

Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or

deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call, 1-800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site, www.auction. com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 9987-7866. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Notice To Potential Bidders: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You


are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Notice To Property Owner: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (877) 440-4460 or visit this Internet Web site www.mkconsultantsinc.com, using the file number assigned to this case 181102323. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
