It was a genuine pleasure to see the world through so many different lenses. Congratulations to this year’s winners and honorable mentions and thank you to all who entered. First, second and third place winners — please contact tbehar@timespublications.com to claim your prize. — Nancy D. Lackey Shaffer

Purple is the New Party

America still hasn’t had “the talk” yet by Paul Moomjean

paulmoomjean@yahoo.com

O

n Sunday, Feb. 2, 2020, approximately 100 million people got together to watch the Super Bowl. Think of Sunday football, and especially Super Bowl LIV, as the secular American church, but sponsored by Bud Light. Football has been part of the American fabric for over 50 years now, with the sport being a staple in the growth and conditioning of young men through pee-wee football teams all the way to high school and college. Yet, while the NFL has had its ups and downs in both ratings and public relations, the league has tried to sell itself as familyfriendly entertainment, while also attempting to appease the drunken, sex-obsessed young male demographic, too. The results seem to directly conflict with each other every few Super Bowl halftime shows every few years, as women dance, the crowd goes nuts, and once again America proves she hasn’t come to terms with the sexual revolutions of the past. The NFL isn’t new to having controversy overshadow the other aspects of its brand. Remember when Janet Jackson’s nipple was revealed by Justin Timberlake on stage back in 2004? This past halftime show saw international music stars Jennifer Lopez and Shakira shaking their butts (literally) to the sounds of their most popular songs over the past 20 years. Lopez’s album On the 6 was showcased as well

as Shakira’s most popular song, “Hips Don’t Lie.” Not everyone was a fan, though. The “hypersexual” dance moves, along with men grinding up against the singers in the Miami halftime show, created a stir in the Twitterverse, ranging from comments questioning the dancing to the Latin-themed concert. The Washington Post summed up the frustration like this: “Sunday may have been the most Latino Super Bowl in the history of Super Bowls. In Miami, a city that is 70 percent Latino, Jennifer Lopez and Shakira delivered a showstopping halftime show, featuring Latin urban superstars Bad Bunny and J Balvin — a memorable performance that has continued to generate buzz. Indeed, underlying the discussion of the show’s sexuality are deeply rooted stereotypes of Latinas as hypersexual, the same stereotypes that fuel xenophobic rhetoric and policies.” Personally, I enjoyed the halftime show and the nostalgia it brought back. As a teenager in the 1990s, it reminded me of a simpler time, when the president was being impeached for sex instead of blocking funding to other countries. Yet, the fact that we are still outraged about the sexual nature of halftime dancing only proves that America hasn’t had “the talk” yet with itself. Our puritanical roots seem to tighten deeper into the ground after these events, and while the NFL can claim it had no idea that this type of response would occur on its

“family-friendly” show, the league loves the outrage, because it becomes the trailer for next year’s show. While 100+ million people will tune in to watch the game, many will tune in just to see the sexually charged show — if only to be upset by it. Super Bowl LIV just guaranteed Super Bowl LV can already start selling ad space at a higher rate. While America has no right to act shocked that a game with cheerleaders in similar clothing dancing around populates the screen time weekly, I do understand that, to a conservative family watching with their kids, how J-Lo and Shakira strutting their stuff could create an awkward conversation: “Well Bobby, her hips don’t lie because . . . Jesus doesn’t want any part of our body to lie. Especially our lips. But especially our hips.” Yet, considering the NFL has had to deal with its stars being labeled unpatriotic and cheaters, as well as the science community claiming massive brain damage is in store for the men wearing pads, all of this seems to point to the idea that manufactured outrage is just that — manufactured. We love the NFL and we aren’t going to cancel it. While people can cry about the over-sexual nature of sporting events, they won’t stop watching. There’s too much invested. Our kids play football, our families watch football and the community loves football. My suggestion is that next year, if you are afraid of the halftime show, during it just put on Netflix and literally chill. ♦

Power to Speak Clarifying Channelkeeper’s role in Ventura River watershed adjudication by Ben Pitterle

I’

m writing to the VC Reporter to offer clarification for property owners in the Ventura River watershed about Santa Barbara Channelkeeper’s role in the groundwater adjudication initiated by the city of Ventura. Santa Barbara Channelkeeper is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that works to protect and restore the Santa Barbara Channel and its watersheds (including the Ventura River) through science-based advocacy, education, field work and enforcement. We are aware that residents throughout the Ventura River watershed recently received notice from the city of Ventura that the city has commenced an adjudication of water rights. Since 2001, Channelkeeper has been actively working in the Ventura River watershed to monitor water quality, address pollution and habitat degradation, provide environmental education, engage volunteers and promote public recreation and access in the watershed. Through our nearly two decades of involvement in this work, Channelkeeper identified the city of Ventura’s pumping from the river at Foster Park as a key detrimental impact harming wildlife and other beneficial uses of the river. No limits have ever been placed on the city’s pumping at Foster Park. Despite Channelkeeper’s extensive advocacy, the State Water Board and city of Ventura did not resolve to address this problem. The city circumvented prior efforts by

the National Marine Fisheries Service to regulate pumping at Foster Park to protect endangered species. State regulatory agencies didn’t take action, and despite the city’s assurances that it was managing its river resources sustainably, official city water budget documents showed that the city in fact planned to expand its pumping at Foster Park. As a result, Channelkeeper filed suit against the State Water Board and the city in 2014 in an effort to specifically address the city’s excessive pumping from its well field at Foster Park, which was consistently dewatering the river to the detriment of wildlife and other important beneficial uses of the river. Santa Barbara Channelkeeper did NOT initiate adjudicatory procedures in the Ventura River watershed, nor did Channelkeeper partner with the city as it did so. The city of Ventura initiated the Groundwater Basin Adjudication and issued cross-complaints against those who own or may own a water right in the Ventura River. Channelkeeper’s actions up to this point have been very specifically tailored to focus solely on the city of Ventura, given its disproportionate impact on diminishing flows in the Ventura River. In order to avoid delay in resolving concerns with the city’s over-pumping at Foster Park, Channelkeeper sought to have the city’s crosscomplaints against other Ventura River water rights holders dismissed by the court, which it initially ordered be done. The city, however, appealed that ruling, and the appellate court allowed the cross-complaints to move forward. Now that the city of Ventura has initiated an adjudication,

Channelkeeper is a party to the adjudicatory proceedings. Adjudication is a more lengthy and involved process than Channelkeeper sought to resolve issues related to the Foster Park well field; however, the process should ultimately result in a more sustainable balance between the needs of people, endangered species and other wildlife on a watershed-wide scale. In the meantime, our focus is to ensure that adequate water is left in the river until the process is completed and that the final outcome adequately provides for the ecological needs of the river. It is not Channelkeeper’s role to weigh in on how water is allocated amongst users in the watershed. The legal notices that water right holders have received are a procedural requirement of the adjudicatory process initiated by the city. The city’s distribution list was comprehensive, but the notice should only directly impact those who divert water from the Ventura River, have a groundwater well, or have plans to develop groundwater rights by drilling a well in the future on their property. Channelkeeper encourages all interested parties to attend one of the city’s upcoming adjudication workshops to receive more information and ask questions. To learn more about Channelkeeper’s work to restore flows in the Ventura River by addressing the city’s pumping, please visit www.sbck.org/rtr. ♦ Ben Pitterle is the science and policy director of Santa Barbara Channelkeeper.

VC Election 2020 Local and statewide ballot measures

by Kimberly Rivers krivers@timespublications.com

Statewide: Prop. 13 (2020) — a case of déjà vu . . . or is it?

V

oters in California are having déjà vu. In 1978, voters approved Prop. 13, which capped property tax increases at two percent annually. On the March 3, 2020 ballot, another Prop. 13 is being put before voters and it’s causing a lot of confusion. To be clear, Prop. 13 (2020) has nothing to do with Prop. 13 (1978). Last year the state legislature passed Assembly Bill 48, which placed a bond measure on the March 3, 2020 ballot. That measure was titled Prop. 13 (2020), which if approved will authorize the state to issue bonds up to $15 billion for improving public school — preschool through college/university — facilities. A quick primer on bonds: A bond is like a mortgage. The state will borrow money (sell the bonds) from investors (who buy the bonds), and has to pay it back with interest (the investors get a profit) in a specified length of time. Prop. 13 (2020) would direct $9 billion to preschool and K-12 schools; $4 billion would be earmarked for public California State universities and community colleges; $500 million would be directed to charter schools and $500 million to career-tech facilities. The state Financial Analyst office reports the total cost of the measure would be $26 billion, including interest over the

12 —

— February 13, 2020

life of the bond. The annual interest (just over $700 million) would amount to about 0.5 percent of the state’s annual budget. Under Prop. 13 (2020), schools with the biggest need in terms of safety would get priority, as would smaller and low-income districts. It would also allow funds to be used at college-level facilities for increasing student access to affordable housing. Prop. 13 (2020) would also reduce or eliminate (near transit stops) developer’s fees for multifamily housing developments and raise the limit on funding school districts can raise by issuing local bonds. The measure also requires schools requesting funds to provide a five-year master facilities plan, and creates an incentive for all-union construction to be used for bond-funded projects. The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association (HJTA), a critic of the measure, points to the current $7 billion surplus in the state’s general fund, saying that could be used in public schools rather than state taxpayers taking on more debt to fund facilities projects. HJTA also says the increase in borrowing caps for local districts would lead to an increase in local property taxes. HJTA points to the measure incentivizing all-union labor for construction, saying that will drive up costs. Those supporting the bond measure say the money is desperately needed, especially in smaller, low-income districts to retrofit water systems, remove asbestos and address other safety issues on aging school campuses. Supporters include the California Teachers Association, California Charter School Association, California Professional Firefighters and the Association of California School Administrators.

One committee formed in support of the measure, which has contributed around $1.5 million to its passage, is called Californians for Quality Schools and is primarily sponsored by the California Building Industry Association. Major donors to that committee include the Tejon Ranch Co. and KB Home Inc., both home builders. There are no committees opposing the measure registered with the California Secretary of State.

Local ballot measures, by city These ballot measures will only appear on your ballot if you live in the area where they apply. For the March ballot there are measures in two unified school districts: Las Virgenes and Moorpark. Three cities have ballot measures: Oxnard, Ojai and Santa Paula.

Oxnard: Measure B Called the “Government Accountability and Ethics Act,” this new ordinance, if approved, would add several prohibitions and restrictions to the city code related to campaign contribution limits, receiving gifts, reporting, public records and term limits. The ordinance would generally prohibit any elected or appointed city official from receiving any gift intended to influence them, any gift from a person or business seeking a contract with the city in the last 12 months, or when a city official is providing information or services in the regular course of their duties.


vcreporter.com If approved the ordinance would create donation limits for campaigns for city elected offices. Anonymous contributions over $100 will be prohibited. Disclosure and reporting requirements would align with state requirements, and require the same information to be reported to the city clerk. The city would also have to post contracts and other agreements approved by the city on its website as well as monthly financial reports. The ordinance would also create term limits that would apply to both city council and mayoral positions. A person could serve three consecutive terms, then take a two-year hiatus from office before qualifying to run again. The city says the measure is aimed at building transparency in city operations, but that position is being challenged by Oxnard resident Aaron Starr, who points to the January adoption of his proposed term-limit plan by the city. The city council adopted an ordinance setting two terms as the maximum a council member or mayor could serve, with a two-year hiatus. Starr has argued in a written statement, sent out through his group called “Moving Oxnard Forward,” that the city’s action, paired with putting Measure B on the ballot, is meant to confuse voters. Starr argues that if Measure B is approved, the two-term limit ordinance adopted in January will be nullified, term limits will increase to three consecutive terms and, due to how the measure is written, an individual could switch continuously between mayor and city council member without having to take a two-year hiatus — effectively skirting term limits all together. Starr challenged the campaign contribution restrictions in Measure B in a federal lawsuit against the city, but on Feb. 11, Starr told the VCReporter the case was “dismissed without prejudice because it is not yet ripe. We have the option to refile it, in the event Measure B is adopted.”

annually, with funds targeted to improve and maintain city projects like street maintenance, wildfire prevention, park improvements, stormwater drainage rehabilitation, water conservation groundwater replenishment and an emergency communication signboard. www.ojaicity.org.

Santa Paula: Measure D Currently the city clerk and treasurer for Santa Paula are elected positons for terms of four years each. The city is seeking a voter approval for these positions to be appointed by the city council. All five Santa Paula City Council members have signed onto an argument in favor of making these positons appointed, stating “The qualifications to serve as an elected city clerk and city treasurer only require that a candidate be 18 years old, a registered voter and a city resident, with no guarantees that they will possess the necessary knowledge, skills and expertise required to perform today’s complex, specialized and technical duties.” The statement says changing the position to “professional, appointed” employees “will help ensure that our city operations continue to be run effectively and professionally with qualified and trained individuals.”

Las Virgenes Unified School District: Measure V

This district falls mostly in Los Angeles County, but a small portion of the district reaches into Ventura County in Westlake Village and Bell Canyon. The measure is seeking a locally funded $198 million bond for safety, security and educational upgrades on district campuses. The bond will be funded through an increase in local property tax of about $20 per year for every $100,000 in assessed (not market) value. The district has already completed a Facilities Master Planning Process and has identified the most “time sensitive” projects, which include school safety projects such as fire and disaster preparedness, an emergency response system, deteriorating roofs, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems, and improving instructional technology. www.yesforlasvirgenesschools.com/frequently_asked_questions ♦

John Lacques and Noah Thomas of Boom Duo.

If

you’re looking for rock, R&B, jazz and other forms of dance music, there is no lack of bands in Ventura County to explore. But among all these options, there is only one Boom Duo. Created in 2009 by drummer and percussionist John Lacques and multi-instrumentalist Noah Thomas, the duo’s music is meant to be experienced. It’s like being FROM SUMMIT TO SEA sonically drenched in water. It’s free-form, experimental and completely improvised.

Lacques describes the music of Boom Duo as “improvisational and in the moment.” “A lot of it has to do with space, a respect for space, leaving space, filling in space. It’s kind of a conversation,” he added. Thomas describes it as “a little bit like painting.” “We have a lot of friends who are painters and artists,” he said. “It’s kind of a parallel creative concept.” As a point of reference, Thomas points to Roscoe Mitchell and the Art Ensemble of Chicago: “He has this technique that he calls composition in the moment. We attempt to do that as we’re playing.” More important, their music is meant to be interactive between each musician. This means that as they’re playing, they must be active listeners. There’s a chemistry between Lacques and Thomas that is unique to their musical mission. “The chemistry happens because we’re only two minds,” said Lacques. “That helps a lot. It takes acute listening, and Noah is one of the best listeners I’ve ever played with.” In case you’re wondering, Boom Duo does not bring sheet music. “There’s no set list,” Lacques explained. “We don’t rehearse. Whatever happens, we go there and it morphs. That’s the essence of what we do.” And so, as they play together, the more they explore, the more they discover. The journey remains an open adventure. “I know that in my mind,” Lacques stated. “It’s not filled up yet where we’re like ‘Oh, we’ve done it all.’ I don’t feel close to that. I feel like we have this vessel to fill up with many explorations.” For Thomas, Boom Duo is the adventure of music itself: “That’s the nature of music anyway. Music is always changing. The sound is always changing. The way you’re playing it is always different. The emotions are different. I think we kind of reflect that.” ♦ Boom Duo performs on Saturday, Feb. 22, at 8 p.m. at Leashless Brewing, 585 E. Thompson Blvd, Ventura. The recently released album Live at Leashless is available at store.cdbaby.com/cd/boomduo. Follow the band on Facebook at www.facebook.com/boomduoband.

ADVICE GODDESS

by amy alkon In seduction, more is not more. You’ll be most attractive if you simply let who you are sparkle — a term that has more in common with “twinkle” than “immobilize men with the alien death ray of your personality.” As a heterosexual woman, pursuing romantic partners as ferociously as you’d pursue a business deal is especially counterproductive. Though we’re living in modern times, we’re stuck with an antique psychological operating system, calibrated to solve ancestral mating and survival problems. This means the psychology driving us is sometimes seriously mismatched with our modern world. For example, we now have reliable birth control, and even if that fails, children won’t die of starvation or be eaten by feral goats because the dude who fathered them “hit it ’n’ quit it.” Yet, we’ve still got our evolutionary legacy running the show. In vetting potential sex partners, women evolved to be more qualityconscious — choosier, more “hard to get” — while men evolved to take a more, shall we say, quantity-driven approach: “The more the merrier! Hey, next time, invite your sisters!” These differences in sexual choosi-

ness emerge from what evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers explains as men’s and women’s differing levels of “parental investment.” The members of a species with the greatest possible costs from having sex — like pregnancy and a screaming kid to feed — evolved to be more selective in mate choice. Women’s emotions are their parental investment watchdogs, pushing them to make sure a man’s willing and able to stick around

in a big way in a recent study looking at heterosexual Tinder users. Belgian econ doctoral candidate Brecht Neyt calculated the percentage of profiles men and women gave “super likes” to — a function on Tinder as of 2015. For those uninitiated in Tinderese, swiping right “likes” another user, but they will be none the wiser unless they, too, swipe right on you. Swiping up, however, is a “super like,” which triggers an automatic notification to the super-liked person. (Annoyingly, the researchers didn’t mention or take into account that super likes are generally seen as super uncool — a sign of desperation — leading many Tinderers to note in their profile, “If I super like you, I did it by accident.”) Neyt and his colleagues found that men super liked 61.9% of women’s profiles, while women super liked only 4.5% of the men’s. Their finding is a pretty dramatic reflection of men’s evolved quantity-over-quality default. In short: Stripperliciousness is nice, especially when packaged with kindness, intelligence, and killer cooking skills, but “Same species! Not in jail! Has internet access!” works, too. So, if you’re reasonably attractive and in a man’s age range, there’s a good chance he’ll go out with you simply because you ask — though he may

. . . the psychology driving us is sometimes seriously mismatched with our modern world.

Business Whirled

I’

m a woman who’s fiercely competitive in the business world. I’ve been rewarded for pursuing deals as relentlessly as highly successful men do. Yet, taking this approach in my dating life — energetically pursuing men and confidently asking them out — has been a bust. The men I go after seem to find my openness, excitement, and confidence off-putting. I keep hearing that I need to chill out and let men pursue me. This seems crazy. I shouldn’t have to act like a debutante, waiting for a man to ask me out. — Irritated

and provide resources. Though some women can take an emotionally Teflon approach to casual sex, anthropologist John Marshall Townsend finds that for many, hooking up comes with some emotional reflux — even when a woman knows a one-nighter is all she wants from a guy. She’ll boot some himbo out of bed only to get all angsty afterward, worrying that the guy she wants nothing more from doesn’t want anything more from her. These differences in male and female mating selectivity showed up

not be interested beyond a hookup. But let’s say he’s somebody who would be interested in you. Because men co-evolved with women, men expect women to be choosy, and they tend to devalue women who just tumble out of the sky into their lap. The best test for whether a man has real interest in you is seeing whether he’ll lay his ego on the line to ask you out. You aren’t without control in this approach; you can flirt with a guy you’re interested in to signal that you’re open to being pursued by him. Should things be different? Well, sure, in a more perfect mating universe. But if you want to be successful in this one, you should do what works — which is driven by men’s evolved psychology. Though men will eventually take a selective approach when considering a woman as a long-term partner, many will have sex with anything this side of a pound of liver in the refrigerator (and sometimes that will just have to do). ♦ (c)2020, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

Now that she’s in her late forties, Aries comedian and actress Tig Notaro is wiser about love. Her increased capacity for romantic happiness has developed in part because she’s been willing to change her attitudes. She says, “Instead of being someone who expects people to have all the strengths I think I need them to have, I resolved to try to become someone who focuses on the strengths they do have.” In accordance with this Valentine’s season’s astrological omens, Aries, I invite you to meditate on how you might cultivate more of that aptitude yourself.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

Taurus artist Joan Miró loved to daub colored paint on canvases. He said he approached his work in the same way he made love: “a total embrace, without caution, prudence thrown to the winds, nothing held back.” In accordance with astrological omens, I invite you to invoke a similar attitude with all the important things you do in the coming weeks. Summon the ardor and artistry of a creative lover for allpurpose use. Happy Valentine Daze, Taurus!

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

In 1910, Gemini businessman Irving Seery was 20 years old. One evening he traveled to the Metropolitan Opera in New York City to see an opera starring the gorgeous and electrifying soprano singer Maria Jeritza. He fell in love instantly. For the next thirtyeight years he remained a bachelor as he nursed his desire to marry her. His devotion finally paid off. Jeritza married Seery in 1948. Dear Gemini, in 2020, I think you will be capable of a heroic feat of love that resembles Seery’s. Which of your yearnings might evoke such intensely passionate dedication? Happy Valentine Daze!

CANCER

by rob brezsny (June 21-July 22):

I’ve been married twice, both times to the same woman. Our first time around, we were less than perfectly wise in the arts of relationship. After our divorce and during the few years we weren’t together, we each ripened into more graceful versions of ourselves; we developed greater intimacy skills. Our second marriage has been far more successful. Is there a comparable possibility in your life, Cancerian? A chance to enhance your ability to build satisfying togetherness? An opening to learn practical lessons from past romantic mistakes? Now is a favorable time to capitalize. Happy Valentine Daze!

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

In 1911, the famous Russian poet Anna Akhmatova and the famous Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani were in love with each other. Both were quite poor, though. They didn’t have much to spend on luxuries. In her memoir, Akhmatova recalled the time they went on a date in the rain at the Luxembourg Gardens in Paris. Barely protected under a rickety umbrella, they amused each other by reciting the verse of Paul Verlaine, a poet they both loved. Isn’t that romantic? In the coming weeks, I recommend you experiment with comparable approaches to cultivating love. Get back to raw basics. Happy Valentine Daze!

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

[Warning: Poetry alert! If you prefer your horoscopes to be exclusively composed of practical, hyper-rational advice, stop reading now!] Happy Valentine Daze, Virgo! I hope there’s someone in your life to whom you can give a note like the one I’ll offer at the end of this oracle. If there’s not, I trust you will locate that person in the next six months. Feel free to alter the note as you see fit. Here it is.

“When you and I are together, it’s as if we have been reborn into luckier lives; as if we can breathe deeper breaths that fill our bodies with richer sunlight; as if we see all of the world’s beauty that alone we were blind to; as if the secrets of our souls’ codes are no longer secret.”

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

In the course of your life, how many people and animals have truly loved you? Three? Seven? More? I invite you to try this Valentine experiment: Write down their names on a piece of paper. Spend a few minutes visualizing the specific qualities in you that they cherished, and how they expressed their love, and how you felt as you received their caring attention. Then send out a beam of gratitude to each of them. Honor them with sublime appreciation for having treasured your unique beauty. Amazingly enough, Libra, doing this exercise will magnetize you to further outpourings of love in the coming weeks.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

[Warning: Poetry alert! If you prefer your horoscopes to be exclusively composed of practical, hyper-rational advice, stop reading now!] Happy Valentine Daze, Scorpio! I invite you to copy the following passage and offer it to a person who is receptive to deepening their connection with you. “Your healing eyes bless the winter jasmine flowers that the breeze blew into the misty creek. Your welcoming prayers celebrate the rhythmic light of the mud-loving cypress trees. Your fresh dreams replenish the eternal salt that nourishes our beloved song of songs. With your melodic breath, you pour all these not-yet-remembered joys into my body.” (This lyrical message is a blend of my words with those of Scorpio poet Odysseus Elytis.)

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

The poet Virgil, a renowned author in ancient Rome, wrote three epic poems that are still in print today. His second was a masterpiece called the Georgics. It took him seven years to write, even though it was only 2,740 lines long. So on average he wrote a little over one line per day. I hope you’ll use him as inspiration as you toil over your own labors of love in the coming weeks and months. There’ll be no need to rush. In fact, the final outcomes will be better if you do them slowly. Be especially diligent and deliberate in all matters involving intimacy and collaboration and togetherness.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

[Warning: Poetry alert! If you prefer your horoscopes to be exclusively composed of practical, hyper-rational advice, stop reading now!] Happy Valentine Daze, Capricorn! I invite you to copy the following passage and offer it to a person who is ready to explore a more deeply lyrical connection with you. “I yearn to earn the right to your whispered laugh, your confident caress, your inscrutable dance. Amused and curious, I wander where moon meets dawn, inhaling the sweet mist in quest of your questions. I study the joy that my imagination of you has awakened. All the maps are useless, and I like them that way. I’m guided by my nervous excitement to know you deeper. Onward toward the ever-fresh truth of your mysterious rhythms!”

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Aquarian author Derek Walcott had a perspective on love that I suspect might come in handy for you during this Valentine season. “Break a vase,” he wrote, “and the love that reassembles the fragments is stronger than that love which took its symmetry for granted when it was whole.” I urge you to

meditate on how you could apply his counsel to your own love story, Aquarius. How might you remake your closest alliances into even better and brighter versions of themselves?

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

Piscean poet Saul Williams wrote a meditation I hope you’ll consider experimenting with this Valentine season. It involves transforming mere kisses into SUBLIME KISSES. If you choose to be inspired by his thoughts, you’ll explore new sensations and meanings available through the act of joining your mouth to another’s. Ready? Here’s Saul: “Have you ever lost yourself in a kiss? I mean pure psychedelic inebriation. Not just lustful petting but transcendental metamorphosis, when you became aware that the greatness of this other being is breathing into you. Licking your mouth, like sealing a thousand fleshy envelopes filled with the essence of your passionate being, and then opened by the same mouth and delivered back to you, over and over again — the first kiss of the rest of your life.” Homework: Want to get married to yourself? The ritual’s here: https://tinyurl.com/YouCanMarryYourself

eading home from Hollywood after Christmas, it happened to be one of the two worst days of the year to be on the road. It took six hours to get home. One of those hours was a break for lunch at Austen’s at the Pierpont Inn, now a Wyndham hotel. We walked up to the lobby — but it wasn’t there, nor was the restaurant, Austen’s. We followed a sign pointing the way, but ended nowhere. There we spotted a second sign and after a bit of sleuthing found our way down the garden path to the lovely rose garden cottages and yet another sign leading us to the hotel restaurant’s temporary digs, where it will reside during a large construction project. The restaurant’s temporary digs are rather cozy. There’s a covered outdoor patio with lovely views across a green lawn all the way to the Channel Islands (we could see Arch Rock!); the windowless dining room has a lovely historic painted fireplace. The bar is a sort of temporary set up, and the wine list is quite extensive and interesting. The food, at least for lunch, was not spectacular, but it was satisfying and there wasn’t anything wrong with it, either. Our waiter, Martin, was most accommodating when we asked to sample a couple of wines before settling on a lovely, crisp Sonoma Sauvignon Blanc from Sean Minor, Four B ($10 a glass) and taking our order. Sadly, there’d been a bit of a bait and switch. The lobster roll I’d craved after seeing it on the online menu was no longer available. So my friend and I decided to split the Impossible burger with a side of onion rings

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 recorderís 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 (916)9390772 or visit this Internet Web http://search.nationwideposting. com/propertySearchTerms.aspx, using the file number assigned to this case CA1900285850 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 sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee or the Mortgageeís attorney.

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.
