OPINION Letters More on pesticides in Ojai

hile I appreciate the theatricality of your Oct. 2 cover shot featuring actress Diane Ladd, it is also a bit absurd. That stylishly lacy breathing mask she’s wearing would do nothing to protect her from the toxic pesticide vapors to which she believes she is being exposed at her home in Ojai. For that, she’d need an OSHA-approved industrial respirator with chemical-specific filter cartridges. They’ve not stylish at all. But the reality is that neither she nor any of the other individuals quoted in your story about the anti-pesticide activism currently roiling Ojai provided any actual evidence to support their contention that the valley’s farmers are poisoning the community. What your reporter collected instead was an appalling pastiche of falsehoods, half-truths, unsubstantiated allegations and unverifiable anecdotes. There was no evidence that anyone claiming to have been directly exposed to pesticides had reported that exposure to the county agricultural commissioner, who is legally required to investigate such reports to determine whether a serious violation of state and federal law has occurred. There was no evidence that anyone had sought medical attention for their alleged “exposure” symptoms and could provide toxicology reports identifying the chemical involved. There was no evidence that anyone swabbed down their patio furniture and submitted samples to a lab to determine whether drifting spray had, in fact, contaminated their back yard. Some people are indeed poisoning the Ojai community, but it isn’t the farmers trying desperately to save their orchards and their livelihoods from the deadliest citrus disease on the planet. As reflected in your story, it’s people like Josh and Rebecca Tickell, the recently transplanted documentary filmmakers, deploying hearsay to incite hysteria. It’s people like Peggy Pagaling of Transition to Organics, promoting the fantasy that citrus trees magically become immune to a fatal bacterial disease if growers incorporate the right kind of compost into the soil. And it’s people like Ladd, terrifying parents by telling them they need to have their children’s blood tested for exposure to toxins and offering to pay the bill. Ojai’s citrus growers are as concerned about public health and safety as any other members of the community, and they adhere to rigorous regulatory requirements intended to protect residents and the environment from the potential effects of pesticide applications. Most farmers live on their ranches and are raising their families there; to imply they have a cavalier attitude toward the use of these crop-protection tools is deeply insulting. They value the lives of their children every bit as much as their non-farming neighbors value the lives of theirs. That this point even needs to be made suggests how toxic and one-sided the community discourse around this issue has become in Ojai. — John Krist Chief Executive Officer Farm Bureau of Ventura County

— October 17, 2019

Recently there have been alarmist anecdotes about alleged dangerous use of chemicals in Ojai. Let us collectively consider the situation in the most helpful and clinical way we know how. We need to stop reacting to our inner fears, pause, and take a few minutes to think this through rationally. As humans we are emotional creatures, yet balanced out by maturity, wisdom, and experience, we can come to practical conclusions and compromise. As children we are taught to read books like Chicken Little and The Boy Who Cried Wolf. These stories teach us that shouting “Fire!” in a crowded theater is dangerous. Let us recall the message of these age-old common tales: reacting emotionally will cause mayhem. On a more advanced level we learn not to let our anxieties rule our lives. At the end of these stories everyone realizes their mistakes, discovers solutions and continues on with wiser and less ignorant lives. Now, I understand that there are people who are unaware how the agricultural industry works. That being said, it is perfectly okay that not everyone works in agriculture. On the other side of the street, not everyone knows how the movie and acting industry functions. Just as the fact that not everyone can act or entertain the masses, not everyone understands the complexities of farming. Similarly, no one can completely understand the full extent of this situation, but at least we can try. If we invite different perspectives and lean into potentially uncomfortable conversations, we will begin to work together with a higher level of communal knowledge. To me, agriculture is a fundamental part of feeding the world. While I understand the gravity and timeliness of these circumstances, agriculture, in some respects, is necessary. In this type of situation, I use a very old set of principles to help me along. One is paraphrased loosely from Socrates “I only know what I don’t know.” In other words, I will be humble and ask questions. This mentality allows for restraint of tongue and pen, keeping me in good social standing, while being open and willing to learn. I hope that each of us can learn to be open and willing to understand different perspectives. I hope that rather than relying on our emotions, we seek solutions through logic and rationality. In conclusion, I am asking that we calm down and work to reason through this situation. It does no good to react, provoke and stir up community anxieties, emotions or jump to conclusions. If we find ourselves wound up tight in an angry fit, then that is a good sign that it is time to grow and mature. There is no doubt in my mind that if we all calm down and think through this situation, we will lead ourselves to a logical and reasonable conclusion. George Thacher Fourth generation Ojai farmer

More on Moomjean In a letter in the Oct. 10, 2019, VC Reporter, Matt Faust asks for assistance in sorting out whether “Paul Moomjean a comedic satirist or a poor (very poor) reincarnation of William F. Buckley.” In my opinion, Matt, Moomjean is the latter, not the former. But it’s a challenge to figure out what his larger purpose, perspective or philosophy is because most of the Moomjean columns I’ve read have been rambling conglomerations of personal viewpoints and assertions that may or may not be grounded in fact. He does not appear to do much research before putting something down on the page. He seems to riff extemporaneously. Take his most recent column titled “The GOP has a new primary goal.” Moomjean writes, “What makes Trump’s Ukraine-gate so frustrating is that this is exactly what the #NeverTrump people like me, Kristol, George Will, etc., were scared of.” I’ve looked into the 2015-16 writings of both Kristol and Will and I can’t find anything to support this asssertion. Rather, both writers opposed Trump because he was not a traditional conservative (in addition to being a “loathsome” “con man” who should have released his tax returns). Next, he writes about Churchill and Roosevelt being “part of the Russian collusion in the 1940s.” Huh??? Britain, the U.S. and the Soviet Union were, along with France, “The Allies” in WWII. What collusion is Moomjean referring to? He then writes about the possibility that Trump might be removed from office. Seriously? With the current, Republican-dominated Senate? When one comes to the end of this meandering column, it’s clear that Moomjean would like to have a traditional conservative run in the GOP primaries. But, in contrast to the headline, this wistful hope is certainly not the GOP’s goal.

Oxnard School District trustees discuss crosswalk safety following 8-year-old’s death

by David Michael Courtland According to an Oxnard School District trustee, the OSD’s deal with the Oxnard Police Department for three school resource officers is a bad one. In the wake of the Sept. 30 death of an 8-year-old boy struck in a crosswalk at the intersection of Cooper Road and Anita Avenue, trustee Denis O’Leary has campaigned for the change on local radio and at the Oct. 9 school board meeting. “At the end [of the meeting], while the other trustees were giving their ‘thoughts and prayers,’ I called for a reversal of the MOU [memorandum of understanding] with the Oxnard Police Department,” said O’Leary. The money OSD is spending on school resource officers — $405,300 per year for three years — would be better spent on crossing guards, O’Leary said. “I truly think that if we had better governance this may not have happened,” said O’Leary, who was the lone dissenter when the agreement was approved 4-1 at the board’s May 15 meeting. “I believe that our community is better served with the same amount of money going to crossing guards than having three police officers roving between 21 schools.” But Oxnard police and city officials said although the school resource officers (SROs) are spread thin, they provide campus safety and conduct presentations on youth-related issues. “They bring a lot of value,” said Assistant Chief of Police Eric Sonstegard, who acknowledged that while having more crossing guards might be feasible, funding them might be an issue. “It’s like other things,” Sonstegard continued. “We want more police officers, more crossing guards. The question is, how are you going to pay for it?” Oxnard Police Commander Denise Shadinger, who runs the department’s traffic division, said hiring more crossing guards wouldn’t be as simple as redirecting the money for SROs. He said that state law requires crossing guards to have special training, and they are only assigned to intersections according to state guidelines. “A school will request, or there will be a need for assessment” of traffic at an intersection, Shadinger said. “It has to meet certain criteria for assignment of a crossing guard.” One of those criteria are that crossing guards can’t be placed closer than 600 feet apart, meaning one couldn’t have been assigned to the scene of the Sept. 30 accident. Because there are already guards at two nearby intersections, it doesn’t fit the criteria, Shadinger explained. Eight-year-old Alexander Vasquez, his mother and 9-year-old sister were on their way to Cesar Chavez School around 7:40 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 30, when they were struck by a 2002 Chevrolet van in the crosswalk at the intersection of Cooper Road and Anita Avenue. Alexander went into cardiac arrest and was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. His mother and sister were seriously injured but are recovering. Police say the 17-year-old girl driving the van didn’t have a license and may have been blinded by sunlight as she turned into the intersection, which has no stop signs for east- or westbound traffic. Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez put the tragedy in context, noting that similar intersections throughout the city have led to many such accidents in recent years. “We’ve had a lot of pedestrian fatalities all over the city for a long time,” said Ramirez, who attended Alexander Vasquez’s funeral. She suggested designating pedestrian-only zones at schools might be a way to reduce fatalities. “It would be nice if people didn’t have to take their cars; maybe there could be an exclusion zone,” Ramirez said. Mayor Tim Flynn also suggested pedestrian-only zones for schools. “I think what cities and schools should do is close down [to automobiles] and have drop-off points where children can be safe,” said Flynn, who defended the SRO concept. “I think the SRO idea is a good one,” Flynn said. “They’re dealing with all kinds of things, abuse at home, those cops are like social workers. I don’t see replacing these cops with crossing guards, the need is too great.” ♦

In Brief

Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed legislation that directs the California Department of Conservation, Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) to come up with a plan for determining the cost associated with closing down all oil and gas infrastructure over which the state has oversight. Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson wrote the bill, SB551, in the wake of California taxpayers being stuck with estimated costs of approximately $230 million related to the plugging and clean up of several facilities when oil companies declared bankruptcy, including 30 wells at Platform Holly and 75 wells (on and offshore) at Rincon Island. Jackson said the bill is about planning ahead, “If we do not know or fully plan for these costs, the public will be more likely to be left unfairly holding the bag for this industry’s mess.” Ventura County is third, behind Kern and Los Angeles counties, in the state for oil production, with some of the oldest infrastructure. The first commercial wells were active in the 1880s.

MANAGER AT 2014 EXPLOSION SITE ORDERED TO PAY $2.6 MILLION Last week, at a hearing in Ventura County Superior Court, Marlene Faltemier was ordered to pay over $2.6 million in victim restitution for her role in the 2014 Santa Clara Waste Water (SCWW) explosion in Santa Paula. The explosion resulted in several employees and first responders becoming permanently disabled. An extensive, multiyear investigation by the Ventura County District Attorney led to indictments of company executives, whose combined restitution payments total nearly the same as the amount Faltemier is ordered to pay. At the time of the explosion, she was the human resource manager and took part in a plan to hide chemicals illegally stored at the water treatment and disposal facility.

Hall of Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame recognizes a rich athletic legacy

We hope that preserving the accomplishments of the past will spark inspiration in today’s youth and lead them to pursue excellence in the future.” — Brian FitzGerald, board chair of the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame A permanent exhibit at CLU showcases a selection of inductee plaques.

by Alicia Doyle alicia@aliciadoyle.com

entura County is home to some of the greatest athletic talent of all time, including Clarence “Bud” Houser, a two-time Olympic gold medalist in shot put and discus who was a student at Oxnard High, where Houser Field was named in his honor; and track star Mike Larrabee, winner of two gold medals at the 1964 Summer Olympics who attended Ventura High, where Larrabee Stadium remains to this day. Other renowned athletic greats with ties to Ventura County include professional baseball player Terry Lee Pendleton, (Channel Islands High School) and Jessica Mendoza, a softball player at Adolfo Camarillo High who is a two-time Olympian, winning a gold medal in Athens in 2004 and a silver medal in Beijing in 2008. These athletes are among the inductees in the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame, a non-profit organization established in 1983 to acknowledge and honor the many athletes, coaches, organizers and media who have contributed to and enhanced the athletic excellence of Ventura County. “The Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame is an important entity in the quest to preserve the rich athletic history of our area,” said Brian FitzGerald, of Camarillo, chairperson of the board of directors, who was an all-league football player and track athlete at Rio Mesa High School in Oxnard, where he was also the school’s track coach and athletic director. To date, the hall of fame has inducted 185 individuals — five per year for the past 37 years.

Pool of nominees has deepened

“In the earlier years of the organization, there were quite a few posthumous inductions because there were a lot of past years to cover,” FitzGerald said. “More recently, our pool of nominees has deepened and become more current due to the large increase in population in our area and the great environment Ventura County provides for athletic development.” FitzGerald emphasized that many inductees have reached the highest levels of accomplishment in their areas, including Olympians, professional athletes and highly successful coaches, as well as top journalists, such as Woody Woodburn, an award-winning sports writer who attended Buena High School. He was named Columnist of the Year by E.W. Scripps newspapers and inducted into the Jim Murray Memorial Foundation Journalists Hall of Fame in 2003. Ventura resident Teresa Palmisano, who was inducted into the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame in 2006, also attended Buena High School and was a professional basketball player before serving as the athletic director at

Santa Clara High School, where she is now the vice principal. Palmisano said it was “an honor and privilege” being inducted into the organization, where, behind the scenes, “is a great group of fellow coaches . . . past inductees and volunteers who all come together as a team” to put together an event in the summer where high school athletes and other inductees are honored.

Female athletes coming to the forefront

Palmisano is one of only a few women inducted into the hall of fame. Another is Angela Burnham-Teart, a Rio Mesa High graduate, who was named National High School Athlete of the Year by Track and Field News magazine — out of tens of thousands of candidates — and also won the 1986 California state girls 100-meter title as a 14-year-old, becoming the youngest and only freshman to have accomplished the feat. Other women in the hall of fame include Laurie Singer, a valedictorian at Oxnard College and long-distance runner who helped the Oxnard College women’s cross country program place third in the 1989 Southern California championships. Ventura County has a “long, rich history” of sports, which, in the last 20 years, has become even stronger with female athletes coming to the forefront, said 2015 inductee George W. Contreras, a local and international football coach who taught at Thousand Oaks High School and began his coaching career as an assistant football coach for the legendary Joe Howell. (He was a baseball coach as well.) During his eight years with the Lancers football program, he helped coach five league championship squads, and coached lower-level baseball at Thousand Oaks High for four seasons, winning two league crowns. “One of the things the hall is looking for is the inclusion of more females with the growth of women athletes in the last 40 years — we’re always looking for good nominees,” Contreras said.

‘Our history goes way, way back’

Despite so many great athletes from this area, Contreras noted that the hall of fame “only inducts five a year . . . we had well over 100 people in the hopper, and one of the biggest problems I’ve seen over the years is our history goes way, way back.” Professional baseball player Fred Snodgrass, for example, was born in Ventura in 1887, joined the New York Giants after college and played center field from 1908 to 1915. He also played for the Boston Braves in 1916, and in 961 major league games and three World Series. In 1910, he had the fourth highest batting average in the national league. Jack Melvin “Moose” Myers, born in 1924, lettered in five sports at Ventura High School

— football, basketball, baseball, track and tennis — and later was the starting first baseman, leading hitter and MVP of the baseball team at UCLA. He also played fullback for the football team, and played in the 1947 and 1948 Rose Bowl games. Nancy Chaffee-Kiner is yet another. A tennis player who was active in the 1950s, she was born in Ventura and won 14 National and women’s U.S. Championships, and was the first woman to win the Indoor Singles three years in a row. The hall of fame also recognizes individuals who have passed away, including Charlie Dunn, a baseball coach at Oxnard and Camarillo high schools; Jay Merrill, a baseball coach at Camarillo, Thousand Oaks and Newbury Park high schools; and Pat Bell, a girls’ basketball coach at Channel Islands High School.

Deserving of Inclusion

“We need some type of historian to research people from the ’20s and ’30s and ’40s . . . that do need to belong [in the hall of fame],” Contreras noted. “The other problems we’ve had . . . there’s a lot of athletes that are just humble . . . but are very deserving of being included.” The annual induction dinner occurs on the first Sunday in June. The 2019 dinner at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley honored five distinguished inductees and 55 high school and college athletes. They included Oxnard native Paul Stankowski, a graduate of Hueneme High who recorded four top-10 finishes in two previous seasons on the PGA Tour; and Ventura native Troy Dumais, a graduate of Buena High and national diving champion who is a 2012 Olympic Games Bronze Medalist in the synchronized three-meter. “Additionally, and importantly, after the inductees give their acceptance speeches, we recognize the male and female Athletes of the Year from each high school and college in Ventura County,” said FitzGerald. The County Athletes of the Year are also announced, and the hall of fame awards a scholarship to one male and one female Athlete of the Year in attendance. “It’s wonderful and inspiring for the young athletes and their families to be able to listen to and rub elbows with the inductees,” FitzGerald said. “In recent years, many of the inductees were themselves the athlete of the year of their high schools, and I fully expect that some of these high schoolers will be the inductees of the future.” The Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame is also supported by California Lutheran University, where the Thousand Oaks campus showcases a permanent public exhibit featuring a selection of inductee plaques on the second floor of the Gilbert Sports and Fitness Center. CLU gave the hall of fame a home when the center opened in 2006. According to Karin Grennan, media relations manager, the

plaques and memorabilia had been stored in various basements and garages for the hall’s first 23 years. “This area has a rich sports heritage, and we’ve proudly played a role in it as the county’s only four-year university with an athletic program,” Grennan said. “It’s nice that some of the highlights are on display where anyone, including the young athletes who participate in our sports camps and community members who attend our events, can see them.” Although the main goal of the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame is to recognize and honor those who have contributed to the athletic excellence of Ventura County, the organization also recognizes the important role sports play in the development of successful young people, FitzGerald said. “We hope that preserving the accomplishments of the past will spark inspiration in today’s youth and lead them to pursue excellence in the future,” FitzGerald noted. ♦ Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame is a nonprofit organization that relies solely on donations and proceeds from its annual induction dinner for funding. Those interested in supporting the organization can email FitzGerald at itzbfitz@me.com. For more information, visit venturacountysportshalloffame.org.

NOMINATION PROCESS The 2020 induction ceremony for the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame will take place in June, and nominations are being accepted through Dec. 1, 2019. To nominate an athlete for induction, the basic requirements include the following: • The athlete must be 35 years old or older (unless fully retired from athletics) • Nominations in the following areas are accepted: competitor, coach, official, administrator, organizer or member of the media • The individual must have a strong, identifiable, athletic connection to Ventura County For nomination forms and more information, visit venturacountysportshalloffame.org.

‘‘L

et’s do it for the Avenue,” says Maribel Hernandez, general manager of Bell Arts Factory. Hernandez is translating the meaning and sentiment of Va Por La Avenida, a new bilingual community event series that “celebrates the residents, artists and businesses that make up Ventura Avenue.” Hosted by Bell Arts Factory and the Westside Development Corporation, the free eight-event series will be held over the next two years. The first theme is Ofrenda, which kicks off on Oct. 19 at noon. Just in time to prepare for Diá de los Muertos, Ofrenda (“offering”) is inspired by the traditional Mexican displays created to honor loved ones who have passed away. Rooted in the love of community, Va Por La Avenida is where a deep respect for the past meets a sense of hope and excitement for the future. The festivities begin at Kellogg Park with free art classes and music and dance performances by Danza Mexícayotl de Ventura and Ballet Folklórico. Local artists Trio Yolipan will begin a performance in the park then take their show “on the road,” as they stroll and serenade their way down the Avenue, where businesses will hold a variety of creative events. A central focal point of the day will be Bell Arts Factory, which will host lessons in making masks and flowers, paper dolls, and silk screening. Teatro de las Américas will perform a skit and Conjunto Herrera will play traditional Mexican music. Local artists will display their works, while “unoffical resident DJs” Ideal Collective spin “electro-cumbia grooves.” Over at Restore Ventura, passersby can see artist Sergio Martinez at work as he paints a mural of Frida Kahlo. Also at Restore Ventura, artist Patty Keller will show how to make air-dry clay skulls. While the washing machines agitate,

participants can relax with an art class at Olas Lavandería. The bakers of Panaderia Herrera will share the secrets of making traditional sugar PHOTO COURTESY OF MARIBEL HERNANDEZ skulls.

Tracy Hudak of the Westside Community Corporation explains that Va Por La Avenida “is a platform for businesses and artists to build and create experiences.” It’s all about making connections. Va Por La Avenida follows in a long line of community events like Avenida Days, ArtWalk and First Fridays. Avenida Days are just a memory, but the hope is that Va Por La Avenida will foster the same sense of community spirit and involvement. “We are kind of building on that and adding in a creative art experience.” And while the popular ArtWalk and First Fridays fall on the shoulders of the artists, Va Por La Avenida brings businesses into the act. It makes perfect sense, Hudak adds, “We know our local businesses are creative enterprises, too.” Artists and businesses are invited to submit applications to participate in future Va Por La Avenida events; details can be found at www. vaporlaavenida.com. Va Por La Avenida was inspired by Va Por La Roma, another community project far away, but close at heart. Va Por La Roma was initiated after the devastating 2017 earthquake to help rebuild the Colonia Roma neighborhood A papier-mâché Alebrije mask of Mexico City. created in the Spanish Art Thanks to a Creative California Communities grant through the California Arts Council and a Cultural Affairs grant funded by the City of Ventura, Va program at Bell Arts Factory. Por La Avenida is fully funded for two years. The next Va Por La Avenida theme will be Posados on Dec. 21. The year 2020 promises Primavera/Spring in March; Movimiento/ Movement in July; Independencia/Independence in September and Posados again in December. In 2021, the Va Por La Avenida’s themes will be Mujeras/Women in March and another Posados in December. The hope is that Va Por La Avenida will go on long after that. The goal is simple. “We want families to come and enjoy and create,” says Hernandez. She adds that the event will continue to take shape. “We’ll go with the flow,” she adds. What is certain, as the organizers say, is that it is “connected to the vibe of the neighborhood — creative, cultural, innovative and sometimes quirky.” Sounds like a perfect day. So go. Do it for the Avenue! ♦ Va Por La Avenida takes place on Saturday, Oct. 19, starting at noon at Kellogg Park on the corner of Kellogg Street and Ventura Avenue in Ventura.

Big in Japan Stalag 13 finds a thriving punk scene on its most recent tour by Nancy D. Lackey Shaffer nshaffer@timespublications.com

— October 17, 2019

Cruz adds. “But it’s cool because we’re all connected through the music in our souls.” They took that connection on stage, when Ryota played with Stalag 13 for the last show of the tour, which took place in Tokyo at club Moon Step. “He might be one of the best bass players I have ever heard,” Cruz states. Looking back on the tour (which ended Sept. 29), Crerar and Cruz are both impressed by the growing punk scene in Japan. “We’ve been to Europe and other countries, but that was one of the best trips we’ve had,” Cruz says. “Japan is a more recent market for punk, so it’s just starting. . . . They have a great

ate very professionally, and have quality equipment. And both Cruz and Crerar were struck by how friendly everyone was. “In a city with 14 million people, they’re still very nice and polite to each other,” Crerar says of Tokyo. “It was cool to be in that situation for two weeks.” And of course, the fans couldn’t have given Stalag 13 a warmer welcome. “That’s why we do this,” Cruz acknowledges. “For the next generation, and watching those kids enjoy it. The culture, the people, the bands — it was just amazing! We’re grateful.” ♦

he years can be hard on a band. Interests diverge, personalities clash, lifestyles change and the natural progression of musicianship often alters that particular magic that can bring all the elements together to create something extraordinary. It’s hard enough capturing lightning in a bottle; sustaining it can be next to impossible. It’s no small miracle, then, that Nardcore original Stalag 13 has continued to perform, in one configuration or another, since 1981. And while the band — which today includes original members Blake Cruz (guitar) and Larry White (drums), John Morris (bass), Ben Halen (guitar) and John Crerar (vocals) — has traversed the globe on numerous tours through the decades, the first-ever tour of Japan just took place in September. What they found when they got there was surprising — and exciting. “When we got there, we didn’t know what to expect,” says Cruz. “We weren’t sure how Stalag 13 was going to go over. But there were super-fans!” The crowds in these small venues in Tokyo, Yokohama and Okazaki weren’t enormous — Crerar estimates 50-150 — but they went wild when the American punk band took the stage. Crerar recalls the first show in Tokyo, at a club called Wall. “The club was packed, and we saw Nardcore and Ill Repute shirts. . . . When we went on, people went off. We played the Agression song “Intense Energy” (a song about skateboarding) and [there was] someone stage dove with a skateboard on his feet. It was wild, fun and exciting, seeing how it was the first night and all.” “These kids were just so crazy — they just love the music!” Cruz adds. “They like their saki and their music and their smokes. Everyone smokes.” “It looked like there was a smoke machine in the venue, and there wasn’t — it was cigarette smoke,” Crerar confirms. “By the fourth show, my voice was almost gone.” Stalag 13’s fans weren’t just in the audience. Many of the Japanese bands taking the stage were ecstatic to be playing on the same bill as the American punk veterans. Crerar and Cruz recall one opening act, Dear and Horse, that had created a logo “ripping off the cover of our In Control album. They said, ‘there’s no way S13 would ever come here.’ But here we were and they were super stoked to play with us. They even bought us a bottle of saki.” Understanding that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Cruz happily purchased a patch with the “ripped off” logo.

While Stalag 13 was basking in the admiration, the feeling was definitely mutual. “Every band that played before us was super tight, and all slightly different,” says Crerar. “We played with over 20 Japanese bands and all of them were extremely good.” Cruz agrees, singling out And Believe and SloMotion as “my new favorite bands. . . . If they were in America, they’d be signed by bigtime labels.” Ryota, SloMotion’s bass player, is also a promoter who worked with Cruz to set up the tour — and served as a driver and tour guide as well.

Good eats, great views at Ventura Harbor by Nancy D. Lackey Shaffer Harbor Cove Cafe 1867 Spinnaker Drive, Ventura 805-658-1639 www.facebook.com/harborcovecafe/ $4-20

aterside dining is one of the great pleasures of living on the coast, and at Ventura Harbor, there are many restaurants where one can enjoy a drink and a meal while watching the boats go by. Harbor Cove Cafe is worthy of inclusion among these options. Next door to the Channel Islands Visitor Center, this casual eatery is set apart from the densely packed Ventura Harbor Village. Boaters, Island Packers excursionists and locals have been frequenting the breakfast and lunch place for years. Word has been getting around, and with extended hours during the summer (as well as live music on the weekends), Harbor Cove Café’s circle of friends has recently expanded. My first time here was on a beautiful Sunday morning, too lovely to spend over a skillet. At 10 a.m., it was already hopping, and the choicest seats on the shady patio — as well as dog-friendly picnic benches on the lawn — were already occupied. We resigned ourselves to a table inside, but it was no compromise: There’s not a bad seat in the house. Thanks to a configuration facing the water, every table inside or out includes a lovely view of the harbor. Orders are placed at the counter and servers bring food to your table. The full menu is available on the chalkboard above the register, although you might seek out the laminated menus for full details. Breakfast is served until 11 a.m. and includes egg dishes, breakfast sandwiches and burritos, coffee drinks and pancakes. For lunch, there are hot and cold sandwiches, burgers and seafood favorites like fish and chips, fish tacos and calamari.

ou know you have a challenge in front of you when the ticket-taker mispronounces the name of the film as Jex-EYE, instead of Jex-EEE. Jexi is a title that seems like a mash-up of Jeeves, Alexa and Siri (I suppose?), and a film that’s an incredulous exercise. Co-writer/directors Jon Lucas and Scott Moore (The Hangover, Bad Moms) have proffered what I can only assume is a satirical, rom-com send-up of technology gone mad. The laughs are there, but mostly as a result of correct p address is correct p expiration date is correct its fusillade p spelling is correct of obscenities and the continued trend toward DEADLINE FOR AD CHANGES IS 12:00 NOON THE TUESDAY PRIOR TO THAT ISSUES unnecessary male RELEASE. frontal nudity that of only a urologist could d by the production department of Southland Publishing, is the copyrighted property Southland Publishing. truly appreciate. lacement of advertising in any of Southland Publishing’s publications is prohibited without the express consent of Jexi is the virtual assistant us any applicable fees. to Phil (Adam Devine, Isn’t It p OK to run Romantic) a lonely schlep and wanna-be journalist, grinding it or accuracy and is p OK to run out at an online magazine called quality of reproduction. with correction Chatterbox. He’s hectored by his histrionic boss (Michael Peña) for list after list of trivia that’ll go viral. Staring at his phone, walking down a San Francisco sidewalk, he crashes into bike store owner Cate (Alexandra Shipp). He’s almost more concerned about his phone than the condition of the pretty young woman. Almost. The phone doesn’t survive the day, and he gets another one at an outlet that employs Denise, Wanda Sykes as a sassy, surly vulgarian — every bit in character for her. (It seems that as Sykes’ movie roles get smaller, Tiffany Haddish steps in . . . as the new Wanda Sykes). Phil’s new phone has a virtual assistant, Jexi, voiced by Rose Byrne, but appearing to have inhaled Sykes’ spir20 — — October 17, 2019

it. Jexi’s pleasantly robotic flow of four-letter foulness is more Sykes’s mien than that of an ambient voice that comes from your device. Although Jexi’s use of Samuel L. Jackson’s favorite compound word is hilarious — the first few times. This swearing, abusive, personality-disorder-in-aphone has the shock value of Seth MacFarlane’s original Ted. The humor is drawn from the improbability of profanity spewing out of a source other than a human being. Unlike Ted, Jexi can’t sustain itself with either the potty-mouthed dialogue or the very real idea that we spend too much time with our heads lowered, focused on the screens in the palms of our hands. Devine’s Phil is a borderline simpleton; Cate is out of his league, but theirs is the film’s romantic tension. Jealous Jexi commits very human sins as a result. Just when this voice may seem malevolent, it doesn’t, and the sea of expletives and funny-but-filthy adjectives continues. Jexi, the film, is completely unmoored from reality, except for the specter of technology robbing us of our dignity. Her, a 2013 movie starring Joaquin Phoenix, was superior in every way and better elucidated what Artificial Intelligence effect could have on us. It wasn’t funny, however: It was doleful. Jexi could have been much more than it is — a writing room idea, pitched and produced, and little else. That infinitesimal amount is enough for some: one woman seated near me chortled nonstop, clapping like a young sea lion at the base-level bon mots. And millennial America may well be satisfied with this portrait of itself as smart phone-obsessed recluses, hooked on a voice keeping their schedules and reminding them what to do. Truth be told, smart phones do nifty things, but they don’t make us smarter people, better people, more capable of erudition or decision making. Viewed in that prism, let ’em load up the cannon with four-letter words, fire away and splice in those now-obligatory shots of reproductive apparati that make older ladies squirm in their theater recliners. Anything that gets the message across, yet entertains. To that end, Jexi might be better to view from the couch via premium cable at home on some bored winter evening. ♦

ADVICE GODDESS

Captain Hookup

I’

m a single man in my 30s, and I don’t want a relationship right now. I keep meeting women online who say they only want something casual. Then, on the first or second date, it becomes obvious that they want a relationship, not just fun and sex. What’s with the bait and switch? —Annoyed Nothing like arriving for your reservation at a steak house only to be told, “We’re out of a few things tonight — everything made of cow. But good news! We’ve still got carrot kebabs, cauliflower schnitzel, and

by amy alkon kelp stroganoff!” Women who bait and switch like this — revealing their relationshippy intentions between the appetizers and the end of date two — are reflecting what evolutionary psychologists David Buss and David Schmitt call men’s and women’s conflicting “sexual strategies.” These are best summed up as “happily ever after” for women versus “hookupily ever after” for men. These differences in sexual strategy trace to differences in “obligatory parental investment.” This refers to how a man can bolt after sex — “Thanks, but I’ll pass on doing the dad thing!” — while a woman can get pregnant and stuck with a kid to drag around and feed. Accordingly, Buss and Schmitt explain that women typically benefit most from a “long-term sexual strategy,” vetting men to see that they’d commit: stick around to invest in any children that might come out of sex. Men, however, benefit most (that is, leave more descendants carrying their genes) from a “short-term sexual strategy” — having casual sex with a variety of hot-erellas. This doesn’t mean that men never want to commit or that women never want to hook up. They do this when circumstances make it in their

best interest. But because men and women coevolved, they are at least subconsciously aware of each other’s intentions and shade the truth to put themselves in the most “marketable” light. So, men often act more interested in commitment than they actually are (in hopes of getting sex) and women often act less interested, in hopes of ensnaring Harry Hookup and turning him into Harry the Husband. It probably makes sense to err on the side of assuming a woman

Mail Bonding

My girlfriends are all writing out their visions for a partner, as if they’ve met him already (“Thank you, universe, for bringing me this man...”). They claim they’ve gotten boyfriends because of it. Is this just New Age crap, or is there something to writing down what you want? —Boyfriend-Seeking

This apparently is a thing, women writing a letter about the man of their dreams and then feeling like they ordered online from the universe: “My man’s on his way. Just waiting for the tracking number!” Once they get a boyfriend, the belief that their letter writing made it happen comes out of a common cognitive bias — a hiccup in rational thinking — called the “illusion of control.” This term, coined by psychologist Ellen Langer, describes people’s tendency to believe they have control over outcomes that they obviously do not. An example of this is gamblers blowing on dice — and not because the dice have complained bitterly that they are freezing to death and left their tiny square cardigans at home. Ironically, the fact that it’s irrational to do this doesn’t mean it’s

. . . women often act less interested, in hopes of ensnaring Harry Hookup and turning him into Harry the Husband. will want commitment, whether she knows or articulates that or not. Opt for my “cheap, short, and local” advice for first and second dates: Meet for happy hour drinks or coffee for an hour or two, max. You still might get women who said they just want casual fun going gooey on you at the end of date two. At least you won’t have shelled out for filet mignon and fine wine only to hear the no-stringsattached sex version of “First 100 callers get a free TV!” … “Oh, sorry, sir...you’re caller 101.”

unhelpful. Research by psychologists Michael I. Norton and Francesca Gino finds that a ritual, a “symbolic activity” a person performs in hopes of making something happen, tends to increase their “feelings of control” over situations in which outcomes are uncertain. This, in turn, decreases the stress they feel. In other words, it’s possible that the ceremonial act of writing a “Dear Santa” letter to the universe could make a woman more appealing to men by calming her down and getting her to act less crazy and desperate. It’s like putting in an order at a restaurant. You have faith your dinner is coming; you don’t stalk the waiter on Instagram and text him 30 times, alternating pictures of your boobs with plaintive questions and abuse: “Is the chef okay? ... Are you on a smoke break? ... I bet you gave my steak to a prettier girl. ... You’re a terrible waiter. ... I hate you.” (c)2019, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved. Got a problem?

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

“We can’t change anything until we get some fresh ideas, until we begin to see things differently,” wrote Aries psychologist James Hillman. I agree. And that’s very good news for you Aries people. In my view, you are more attracted to and excited by fresh ideas than any other sign of the zodiac. That’s why you have the potential to become master initiators of transformation. One of my favorite types of plot twists in your life story occurs when you seek out fresh ideas and initiate transformations not only in your own behalf, but also for those you care about. I bet the coming weeks will bring at least one of those plot twists.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

Metaphorically speaking, Taurus, you are now crossing a bridge. Behind you is the intriguing past; in front of you, the even more intriguing future. You can still decide to return to where you came from. Or else you could pick up your pace, and race ahead at twice the speed. You might even make the choice to linger on the bridge for a while; to survey the vast vistas that are visible and contemplate more leisurely the transition you’re making. Only you know what’s best for you, of course. But if you asked me, I’d be in favor of lingering on the bridge for a while.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

As I write this, I’m sitting in a café near two women at another table. One sports a gold cashmere headscarf and pentagram necklace. The other wears a dark blue pantsuit and a silver broach that’s the glyph for Gemini the Twins. HeadScarf shuffles a deck of Tarot cards and asks PantSuit what she’d like to find out during the divination she is about to receive. “I would very much like you to tell me what I really really want,” PantSuit says with a chuckle. “I’m sure that once I find out that big secret, I’ll be

26 —

by rob brezsny

able to accomplish wonders.” I hope the rest of you Geminis will be on a similar mission in the coming weeks. Do whatever it takes to get very clear about what you want most.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

Ancient Greek philosopher Socrates was meandering through an Athenian marketplace, gazing at the appealing and expensive items for sale. “How many things there are in this world that I do not want,” he exclaimed with satisfaction. I recommend you cultivate that liberated attitude. Now is a perfect time to celebrate the fact that there are countless treasures and pleasures you don’t need in order to be charmed and cheerful about your life. For extra credit, add this nuance from Henry David Thoreau: People are rich in proportion to the number of things they can afford to let alone.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

I invite you to try this exercise. Imagine that one springtime you grow a garden filled with flowers that rabbits like to nibble: petunias, marigolds, gazanias, and pansies. This is a place whose only purpose is to give gifts to a wild, sweet part of nature. It’s blithely impractical. You do it for your own senseless, secret joy. It appeals to the dreamy lover of life in you. Got all that, Leo? Now, in accordance with current astrological omens, I suggest you actually try to fulfill a fantasy comparable to that one in the coming weeks.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

My Virgo friend Lola got a text-message from her Scorpio buddy Tanya. “Why don’t you come over and chill with me and my demons? It’ll be entertaining, I promise! My inner jerks are howlingly funny tonight.” Here’s what Lola texted back: “Thanks but no thanks, sweetie. I’ve been making big break-

throughs with my own demons—giving them the attention they crave without caving in to their outrageous demands—and for now I need to work on stabilizing our new relationship. I can’t risk bringing extra demons into the mix.” I suspect this is an accurate description of what could be happening for you, Virgo.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

In ancient holy texts from India, soma was said to be a drink that enhanced awareness and alertness. According to modern scholars, it may have been a blend of poppy, ephedra, and cannabis. In Norse mythology, the beverage called the Mead of Suttungr conferred poetic inspiration and the ability to solve any riddle. One of its ingredients was honey. In Slavic folklore, raskovnik is an herb with the magic power to unlock what’s locked and uncover hidden treasures. It’s not a four-leaf clover, but resembles it. I invite you Libras to fantasize about using these three marvels. To do so will potentize your imagination, thereby boosting the cosmic forces that will be working in your favor to enhance your awareness, confer inspiration, solve riddles, unlock what’s locked, and find hidden treasures.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Inventor Buckminster Fuller (1895–1983) was a visionary genius in numerous fields, including architecture, design, engineering, and futurism. In the course of earning 40 honorary doctorates, he traveled widely. It was his custom to wear three watches, each set to a different time: one to the zone where he currently was, another to where he had recently departed, and a third to where he would journey next. “I know that I am not a category,” he wrote. “I am not a thing—a noun. I seem to be a verb.” I recommend his approach to you in the coming weeks, Scorpio. Be a verb! Allow your identity to

be fluid, your plans adjustable, your ideas subject to constant revision.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

“Art is good for my soul precisely because it reminds me that we have souls in the first place,” said actress Tilda Swinton. How about you, Sagittarius? What reminds you that you have a soul in the first place? Beloved animals? Favorite music? A stroll amidst natural wonders? Unpredictable, fascinating sexual experiences? The vivid and mysterious dreams you have at night? Whatever stimuli bring you into visceral communion with your soul, I urge you to seek them out in abundance. It’s Soul-Cherishing and Soul-Enhancing Time for you.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

The coming weeks will be a favorable time to arrange a series of high-level meetings between your body, mind, and soul. You might even consider staging an extravagant conference-like festival and festival-like conference. The astrological omens suggest that your body, mind, and soul are now primed to reveal choice secrets and tips to each other. They are all more willing and eager than usual to come up with productive new synergies that will enable each to function with more panache and effectiveness.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

“I believe in inhabiting contradictions,” writes Aquarian author and activist Angela Davis. “I believe in making contradictions productive, not in having to choose one side or the other side. As opposed to choosing either or choosing both.” I think Davis’s approach will work well for you in the coming weeks. It’s not just that the contradictions will be tolerable; they will be downright fertile, generous, and beneficent. So welcome them; honor

them; allow them to bless you with their tricky opportunities and unexpected solutions.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

Piscean pianist Frédéric Chopin (1801–1849) was a poetic genius whose music was full of sweetness and grace. “Without equal in his generation,” said more than one critic. Today, more than 170 years after his death, his work remains popular. Recently an Italian sound designer named Remo de Vico created an original new Chopin piece that featured all 21 of the master’s piano nocturnes being played simultaneously. (You can hear it here: tinyurl.com/ NewChopin.) As you might imagine, it’s a gorgeous mess, too crammed with notes to truly be enjoyable, but interesting nevertheless. I’ll counsel you to avoid a similar fate in the coming weeks, Pisces. It’s fine to be extravagant and expansive and mulitfaceted; just don’t overdo it. Homework: “I have thousands of opinions still—but that is down from millions—and, as always, I know nothing.” So said Harold Brodkey. And you? FreeWillAstrology.com

of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $677,680.01 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. 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 Auction.com at 800.280.2832 for information regarding the Trustee's Sale or visit the Internet Web site address www.Auction.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08000115-19-1.

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.
