OPINION Recall Tim Flynn and vote for Dr. Miguel Lopez for positive future in our beloved Oxnard.

Editorial

The purpose of the recall election T he state of affairs at Oxnard City Hall has been tumultuous for years, with certain ebbs and flows, but may hit critical mass on Tuesday, May 1, the day of the recall election. We do understand that bureaucracy is often heavy-laden with its own problems of efficacy, wasteful spending and red tape that delays progress, but there is a system of rules and balances that help keep it all in check. When disgruntled residents employ democracy and put items on the ballot to effect change or to reverse changes that they feel are unnecessary or exploitive, there is another branch of government, the judicial, to ensure that the public’s momentum won’t cause more harm for the greater good. And that is exactly how a particular utility rate increase led to this recall election. The long and short of it, residents who wanted to stop a wastewater rate increase passed Measure M to do that, but city officials said that without at least some sort of rate increase, there wouldn’t be enough money to maintain facilities. The wastewater plant had ongoing issues even before Measure M. In court, a judge placed Measure M on hold. The four of the five City Council members then agreed to consider a lower rate increase and all five members ultimately approved the smaller rate increase. During the interim between those two votes, Aaron Starr, former City Council candidate who is now running for mayor in the recall, vowed to replace the four members of the initial favorable vote by holding

Letters Make the most of it

am hoping that the voters in Oxnard realize how important it is to vote May 1st in the Special Recall Election. The professional prognosticators say records show that only 10 percent to 15 percent of eligible voters participate in special elections. That means we could have the future of our city decided by 10,000 or fewer votes. Every vote is even more valuable in this election. I am voting to recall Mayor Flynn, because he is so negative and hasn’t kept all the promises he made to get elected. Oxnard deserves a mayor who will put what is best for the city first and not make decisions based on personal grudges and payback. I think everyone should really take a good look at all the candidates and learn as much as you can about who they are, their vision for Oxnard and what they will do to help the Council make a good decision. I am voting for Dr. Miguel Lopez, because I like his positive attitude and optimism. He has community wide support and endorsements 4— — April 26, 2018

TRADE WAR LUNACY AND STUPIDITY:

that recall. And so, he and several others who shared his concerns gathered thousands of signatures to recall the four members — Mayor Tim Flynn, Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez and Councilmen Oscar Madigral and Bert Perello. And with verification of enough signatures, the recall election was set in motion. After the recall election qualified for the ballot, Starr then had to defend his position in court regarding Measure M and why the city did not have to implement new increased wastewater rates. The decision is still pending. Now, as we have stated before, the premise and passage of Measure M was about wasteful spending that falls on the backs of Oxnard residents. But somehow, the cost of the recall election gets a pass, although it is running close to $500,000, with the final tally yet to be calculated. Further, six months from now, the City Council will see district elections and the makeup of the council may shift entirely. So what, exactly, was the point of all of this if it wasn’t about unfair costs to taxpayers? Some say, democracy in action. Fair enough, but that point is surely lost in the price tag and extremely limited terms of the possible new members. We believe that if residents really want a change of leadership, they should focus on the November elections and move forward with the City Council currently in place until then. At the very least, when the current City Council wanted taxpayers to pay more, it was to improve services. The recall, however, seems to be just about spending taxpayer dollars to win a fight, as Starr seems to have done.

from public safety, labor and business. I hope every Oxnard voter makes the most out of his/her right to vote! Letty Cantalupo Oxnard

Recall Flynn, vote for Lopez I am proud to be an Oxnard native and call Oxnard my home. I know that most people who live here feel that way. I hope that they join me and vote for Dr. Miguel Lopez for Mayor in the recall election May 1. We need someone who is positive to run and represent our city. I heard him speak at a recent forum at Pacifica High School and he was heads above the other candidates to replace Mayor Tim Flynn. He is articulate, gave clear answers as to what he would do as mayor and has a very positive attitude. Mayor Flynn was at the forum and was his usual negative self. I think we are all tired of the negative press that Oxnard gets. With Flynn as our Mayor, the press is having a field day. Lawsuits, low morale, higher crime, more homeless and where are all the “clean” jobs he said he was going to create?

I really get tickled about all of the “panic talk” and “scare talk” about TRADE WAR!! “Oh my God,” they scream, “we are going to have a trade war!!” Well guess what, folks? We have been in a ONE WAY TRADE WAR for over 20 years!! Other countries, especially China, have had tariffs on our exports as high as 25 percent for at least 20 years! What President Trump is trying to do is level the playing field. What is so bad about that? The people who are screaming “TRADE WAR, TRADE WAR” are utter MORONS! They have NOT read the history of our ONE-WAY TRADE WAR as I have. I call it “DIODE LIKE TRADE” because it has been ONE WAY (like a diode). Anyway, folks, stop believing the MORONS who are trying to start a panic. This is one-time President Trump is TELLING THE TRUTH!! Maybe there is an ulterior motive at work, with respect to the MORONS. Maybe they all have invested money in businesses that moved to China!! John Jay Oxnard

The problem with boycotts by Paul Moomjean

paulmoomjean@yahoo.com

here’s something I used to tell my senior students before they went out into the world upon graduation. Every year they would ask for one piece of advice from me, hoping that I’d give them a secret insight that everyone was holding back from them. Not understanding that an advance placement English teacher wasn’t exactly the best person to give them nuggets of success, I would tell them in one sentence: “Don’t mess with a person’s spouse or paycheck.” What those eight little words meant to me were simple. They meant, don’t make life more unbearable than it already is. Today’s Twitter-using, sue-first, ask later, trial-by-public opinion, boycott-everything-we-disagree-with America is getting to a dangerous level, and while some say the recent call for boycotts are a form of free speech, it is a worse form of bullying than what triggered the cry in the first place. Boycotting does not affect the CEO or upper management of a major company. Whether one is being antagonistic to Fox News or Starbucks, the real victim is the hourly employee. When these major companies lose money, workers lose hours, bonuses and upward mobility within the company. The last thing cut is CEO bonuses.

Recently, David Hogg, a 17-year-old boy who was present during the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Florida got into a Twitter war with conservative pundit Laura Ingraham after she mocked his announcement that he was rejected by most of his first college choices. That created a boycott movement and over 20 sponsors left her Fox News nightly show.

‘‘

have been the victim of a boycott. [. . .] I’ve lost a job as a result. It is wrong. You shouldn’t do this by team, you should do it by principle.” Maher’s point clearly shows that actively taking a person’s paycheck and livelihood because he or she makes fun of you or disagrees is worse than the mocking. There are real consequences, and domino effects do happen. Ingraham’s rat-

Maher’s point clearly shows that actively taking a person’s paycheck and livelihood because they make fun of you or disagree is worse than the mocking.

One of her few liberal supporters was Bill Maher, a man who has had his fair share of groups that attempted to boycott him. “I want to defend Laura Ingraham,” Maher told his Real Time audience. “I know it sounds ridiculous, but it has to do with the Parkland kids and guns and free speech. Again, [Hogg] is in the arena, and then he calls for a boycott of her sponsors. Really? Is that American? He complains about bullying? That’s bullying! I

ings haven’t been affected, but Hogg is now trying to find new groups to take down. Recently the high school senior tweeted his 700,000-plus followers a mystery tweet about future boycotts, and then on April 17 sent this out: “[BlackRock] and [Vanguard] are two of the biggest investors in gun manufacturers; if you use them, feel free to let them know.” Hogg then used the hashtags #BoycottVanguard and #BoycottBlackRock.

For those unaware, Vanguard and BlackRock are investment management companies. I guess Hogg likes the idea of the employees losing their money, investors losing money and the people who work in the warehouses of the gun companies losing their jobs too. The only reason he has a voice is because he’s a kid. If anything, he is exploiting his participation in the tragedy at his high school to take down innocent people for his own popularity. Google his name and you’ll find numerous pictures of the tiny teenager, lips pieced, fist raised as if he’s the leader of some cult movement. I’m not denying that he wants to end gun violence (who doesn’t?!), but his take-no-prisoners, go-for-the-throat tactics are disrespectful and out of line. Sadly, America is so thirsty for leadership, it’s following a kid. Remember, he still has to ask an adult to go the bathroom while in a classroom. I wish Hogg were my student. I would love to tell him that while we appreciate his desire, his methods are wrong. He’s messing with people’s lives. Ingraham will be fine. The investment groups’ CEOs will be fine. But their employees and assistants wouldn’t be. All he’s doing is using one tragedy to bring potential hardship to others not responsible, and that is where the boycott movement goes wrong. ♦

Power to Speak

What Ventura College did for me by Jeanette Sanchez I am a graduate of community college. April is Community College Month, and it reminds me how important they are and why community colleges are essential to Ventura County’s economic sustainability and the growth of our students. It was my community college that provided me with the tools, guidance and mentorship on how to pursue my educational goals. I wouldn’t have been able to achieve a master’s degree without a community college education and the dedicated faculty members who are committed to student success. By the time I got focused and knew what I wanted to do, I was no longer the typical student on campus. I had a 3-year-old daughter, was married and working full time. Without the flexibility and affordability of a community college, there was no way I would have been able to transfer to UCLA and finish my education. Living near Ventura College, I am reminded yet again of the myriad students who attend class every day, whether to transfer, enhance their skills or to learn important skills to make them viable members of the workforce. Thanks to the long history of innovation and evolution in these colleges, for many they have become

the gateway to higher education. Community colleges offer diversity, flexibility and affordability — and are some of the best places people can afford to take a class. The Ventura County Community College District (VCCCD) serves close to 32,000 students among the three community colleges: Moorpark College, Oxnard College and Ventura College. VCCCD offers not only programs not for those interested in transferring to a four-year college or university, but also career education, basic skills instruction, and continuing education for economic development, cultural growth, life enrichment and skills improvement. We know that in today’s world having only a high-school diploma sometimes isn’t enough. A bachelor’s degree is now the new associates’ degree; and a master’s degree is the new bachelor’s degree. For many students, achieving a higher education degree also means the possibility of an insurmountable amount of student debt. Junior colleges, as they were formerly known when they first opened their doors in 1901, were known as “the people’s colleges” because these institutions were affordable and were available to a broader group of working-

class Americans than the typical four-year universities. To this day, community colleges continue to be the “people’s colleges.” Another way that community colleges are helping our community is by invigorating our local Ventura County economic development. While some students are attending community college to eventually transfer, as I did, others are garnering credentials and certifications to advance in their current professions or get hired locally. These students are not only the potential Ventura County workforce that our businesses need, but some of them are managing, running or own our local businesses. Community college students are landing quality jobs that sustain the economic vitality of Ventura County. Community colleges were founded on the belief that a more skilled workforce results in a stronger economy. For more than a century, they have been at the forefront of nearly every major development in higher education, offering a connection to higher-paying jobs. In a way, community colleges are pioneers of the revolutionary open-doors admission policy, accepting students from all walks of life. Not only were these institutions essential in receiving returning World War II and Korean

War veterans who were eager to use their G.I. Bill benefits, these colleges also opened their doors to many other generations and have served an ever-growing diverse population ranging from young to working-class men and women, to nontraditional students like myself, in a quickly changing economy. Community colleges continue to offer a connection between education and jobs, in addition to providing a life preserver for those who might otherwise be left without a job or in a lower-paying job. I applaud the work of the three Ventura County community colleges, faculty and staff, who do the work of supporting students and continuing pursuit of economic vitality in Ventura County. With sincere appreciation and in celebration of Community College Month, thank you to everyone who helped along my community college journey. You continue to educate and train a workforce of everyone from students to lifelong learners. ♦ Jeanette Sanchez is the President of Ventura County Women’s Political Council and cover education issues as District Director for Assemblywoman Jacqui Irwin, D-Thousand Oaks.

Boiling Point Anger after death of Ventura man sparks demonstration, demand for action on city’s homeless by Chris O’Neal chris@vcreporter.com

ensions have reached a boiling point in the city of Ventura where 35-yearold Anthony Mele Jr. was fatally wounded by a known vagrant while dining with his wife and daughter inside a Ventura Promenade restaurant. On Monday evening, residents gathered to express anger and frustration over perceived inaction by the City Council and police department in addressing a problem that they say has been smoldering for years. Jamal Jackson, 49, has been arrested in connection with the incident and is being held on $1.05 million bond at the Ventura County jail. On Wednesday, April 18, visitors to the Promenade area reported that Jackson was yelling and being disruptive near the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Ventura police were unable to send officers to the location and instead chose to monitor Jackson via surveillance camera. For over 20 minutes, it appeared that Jackson was not causing a scene and the call for service was canceled. At approximately 9:20 p.m., officers were again called after Jackson allegedly entered the Aloha Steakhouse restaurant and stabbed Mele as he finished dinner. Jackson was chased from the scene and later arrested, and Mele was taken to the hospital, where he was removed from life support several days later. This is the first homicide in the city for 2018.

Photos of Mele show him with his wife and daughter. Amid a large police presence, demonstrators approached the memorial and stood silent, some with tears in their eyes. Mostly, demonstrators expressed fear for themselves and their families, and anger at the City Council and the police department.

Janis Hendricks, 36-year resident of Ventura, says that she didn’t feel safe even showing up for the demonstration. “I was thinking of where I was going to park, and I forgot my mace so I better park on the main street, but I’m not going in the garage,” said Hendricks, who says Ventura has become unsafe. “It used to be the sweetest little town and

now people are busing and dropping people off here.” Hendricks suggests giving the homeless individuals a one-way ticket to be with family, wherever that may be. Mark Rochin, owner of a property management business in Ventura, says that the answer to the problem is simple. “Enforce the laws and stop criminals from killing us. Please,” said Rochin. “I don’t want to die. Enforce the laws. I’m a citizen here, and if I was camping on the beach, I’d be thrown in jail immediately. It’s against the law.” Rochin says that he feels unsafe walking from the Museum of Ventura County to downtown. He held a sign that asked people to stop giving money to homeless criminals who spread hepatitis, adding that the city’s services make it attractive for vagrants to come from elsewhere. “We need to change the perspective of Ventura residents here,” said Rochin. “We don’t want crime, we don’t want hepatitis, so don’t give them money or food. The government is not the answer. It’s a reflection of us; the majority want the homeless criminals here, [and so] the city’s going to want them too.” Others blame the lack of presence by the Ventura Police Department and feel that the department has ignored repeated requests for assistance in the area. One Ventura resident, a 47-year-old who requested anonymity, says he has lived in the city his entire life and that something like this was bound to happen. “There’s more cops on this boardwalk right now than there’s ever been,” he said. “It’s not about the homeless people, it’s about the criminals. Everybody wants to help the homeless. I emailed the City Council and got an email from the police chief saying that they can’t do anything.” Demonstrators marched to City Hall at approximately 5:30 p.m. and into council chambers, where a regularly scheduled meeting was to be held. Over two dozen speakers spoke on the issue, during which attendees took part in a moment of silence. “I believe this council has worked very, very hard to try to reduce the problems and the risk that we face with the criminally vagrant population of our city,” said Ventura Mayor Neal Andrews. “We will do everything we can, we will commit every resource we have to doing better, and we will try to do better, but we need you to help us.” Andrews expressed disappointment that those in attendance weren’t aware of the work the council has put into addressing the issues, referencing his and councilmember Cheryl Heitmann’s time spent on the board of the Ventura County Mental Health Board twenty years prior. City Councilwoman Christy Weir laid out several ideas, from adopting an ordinance similar to that of Santa Barbara banning recreational vehicles from parking on city streets and lots to assessing the city’s downtown methadone clinic, which she believes is “not having good results.” Weir says that increasing police presence on the Promenade and in Mission Park and Plaza Park, and clamping down on panhandling could help as well. “This is a very multifaceted problem and it will take a multifaceted response from all of us, us and you,” said Weir. “We don’t want what happened last Thursday night to happen again.” Ventura Police Chief Ken Corney, when asked if the department has any evidence that cities or counties are shipping individuals to Ventura, simply said, “No,” only to note that some of them may be arriving by public transportation. ✦

In Brief OXNARD SET TO TRANSFORM DOWNTOWN INTO ARTS HUB

Soon, your next visit to Oxnard may include a stop to admire the murals. On Tuesday, April 17, the Oxnard City Council approved a five-year plan for the downtown area dubbed the Oxnard Downtown Arts Hub, appropriating $90,000 — half allocated from the Downtown Improvement Project Settlement Funds, the rest from the Public Art Fund — for three iconic anchor murals within the central business district. Locations for the murals have yet to be determined, but installation is set to begin in June. In a press release, the city says that “A vibrant arts hub has the ability to generate significant economic activity in downtown Oxnard.” The plan to transform the area into an arts center has been in the works for several years, according to the city, with the “adoption of a Cultural Arts Master Plan, the creation of a Cultural Arts Commission and passage of the Downtown Vision Plan, which calls for the creation of an Arts Hub in downtown Oxnard.” In 2015, a three-year-long legal battle between the city and the developers of the city’s downtown movie theater netted a $6.1 million earmark for downtown revitalization, enabling the city to put once-scrapped ideas back on the table.

Park it right here Kellogg Park opens to much fanfare in west Ventura by Chris O’Neal t last, residents in west Ventura have greenspace to call their own with the grand opening of Kellogg Park, a dream eight years in the making. On Saturday, April 14, the community came together in celebration of the park, on the corner of Ventura Avenue and Kellogg Street, with city officials, activists and residents expressing gratitude for sticking with the

The park has gone through a series of concepts, eventually landing on the final design, developed in partnership with The Trust, Kaiser Permanente Heal Zone and the community. Grants to fund the $4.5 million park project included $1 million from California Natural Resources Agency, Urban Greening for Sustainable Communities Program grant; $815,650 from the California Department of

endeavor through to completion. The park consists of walking paths, a stone amphitheater, picnic tables and a community garden with plots available to rent for $30 per month. One person in attendance was Jackie Pearce, who in 2010 introduced the idea for the park at a meeting of the Westside Community Council. The idea came to her as she rode with her two sons to school in the morning, during which she questioned why residents of the Westside have to travel across the city to enjoy a public space. Pearce worked on realizing the park as a member of the Westside Community Council’s park subcommittee. Since, she has helped implement the Westside’s Pollinator Series of murals as a member of the nonprofit Westside Community Development Corporation. After introducing the idea, Pearce says, the community came together around the idea. “It’s definitely a story of collaboration and partnerships and the community coming together and the baton being passed on from one organization to another or individual,” said Pearce. “And here we are; it has

The community contributed $166,000, including $30,000 from Aera Energy. On an overcast afternoon, Ventura Avenue resident Lisa Lopez enjoyed lunch with friends sitting at a stone picnic table at the park. “I love it and I’m very impressed with it,” said Lopez. “What I really like the most is I live off the Avenue here and we needed something like this for so long because there’s so many kids and it’s been like Disneyland, every time I drive by here, even in the night, there are people here, they are so happy that there is a nice park to go to now.” Pearce praises Pacific Coast Land Design for the finished project, saying that she “didn’t know that it would be so beautiful.” “It is our responsibility now,” said Pearce. “Take pride in this park, feel empowered to preserve it and plan for the next thing because we can do more; it’s very symbolic.” ✦

COUNTY RECEIVES A, F IN AIR QUALITY REPORT CARD

If you tossed out your face mask following the Thomas Fire, you may have done so prematurely, as a new report from the American Lung Association has painted Ventura County, and the entirety of Southern California, as having some of the worst air quality in the nation. For the second year in a row, Ventura joins Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino and Orange Counties in recording the nation’s highest number of unhealthy days for ozone, which can cause shortness of breath and, in the long term, COPD and cancer. Ventura fared the best out of the five counties, however, recording only 12 so-called unhealthy days (compared to 122 for Riverside, 112 for Los Angeles) and zero unhealthy particle days (compared to 10 in Los Angeles), which resulted in A for particle pollution. Particle days are recorded when matter is kicked up by high winds, including dust and other pollutants. The American Lung Association supports the state’s effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent by 2030, endorsing low emission vehicles, the use of biofuels and incentives for purchasing hybrid vehicles. The Trump administration, however, has challenged the federal Clean Air Act, which was enacted in 1963. The Association says that since the Act’s enactment, California has seen a 30 percent drop in ozone and an 80-percent reduction in particle pollution over the past 19 years, the period when the Association has issued reports on air quality.

VENTURA-BASED BUSINESS PLEDGES 1 MILLION TREES

Just in time for Earth Day, Ventura-based Paso Pacifico has announced plans to plant 1 million trees to combat climate change. Paso Pacifico, a biodiversity conservation group focused on Central and South America, has set a goal of raising $10 million by 2020 to accomplish the project in Nicaragua, where rangers and volunteers will “plant, monitor and protect native species of trees that will not only help reduce harmful greenhouse gases, but will provide a source of food for villagers and improve habitats for endangered wildlife.” “Earth Day is a perfect time to launch this campaign to combat the effects of climate change that are harming our planet, but we’re counting on the teamwork, enthusiasm and commitment continuing for the next two and a half years and beyond,” said Paso Pacifico Founder and Executive Director Sarah Otterstrom. “We understand that we are setting an aggressive goal, but the positive impacts of planting and caring for 1 million native Nicaraguan trees will be felt across the globe for decades, both for humans and threatened wildlife alike.” In 2008, Paso Pacifico planted 750,000 trees in Nicaragua as part of its Return to Forest effort.

Crime Brief

Planet Ventura

At noon on Monday, April 23, the Ventura Police Department received a call from the Ventura County Medical Center reporting that a stabbing victim had arrived at the emergency room to receive treatment. The 49-year-old victim was suffering from nonlife-threatening injuries to his arm and upper torso. Ventura police contacted the victim, who said that at noon that day, as he sat in the parking lot at Oak and Santa Clara streets in downtown Ventura, he was approached by four Hispanic males. An argument began between the victim and the suspects during which time one of the suspects stabbed him with a knife, after which the suspects fled on foot. Officers were unable to locate any suspects at the crime scene. Anyone with information or who is a witness to this crime is asked to contact the Ventura Police Department at 339-4488. — Chris O’Neal

FOOTHILL STUDENTS SAY ENOUGH

ozens of students of Foothill Technology High School marched from the school near Ventura College to Ventura City Hall on April 20, the 19-year anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting, which left 12 students and one teacher dead. This protest came almost one month later after the March 24 national protest that followed the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting, which occurred on Feb. 14 in Parkland, Florida, and left 17 dead.

heart health New high blood pressure guidelines show more people at risk for cardiac disease

BY KATHY JEAN SCHULTZ

ne night last November, nearly half of the adult U.S. population was suddenly labeled as having high blood pressure. It happened overnight. Although nothing in people’s bodies changed, the definition of high blood pressure had been changed. And presto, 46 percent of adults were surprised to find themselves classified as having high blood pressure — compared to 32 percent only the day before. People who thought they had “normal” levels suddenly had “elevated” levels. It was as if a traffic warning light that’s always yellow had quietly turned red. This happened because new guidelines were issued by the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association. Recent research led the experts to redefine high blood pressure. Science is constantly uncovering new understanding of health by using new technologies, and old definitions must fall to new research findings. The greatest impact is expected among younger adults. According to the AHA, the changes mean that high blood pressure diagnoses could triple among men age 20 to 44 — to 30 percent of men in that age group, up from just 11 percent in previous years. And women ages 20-44 will see their rates almost double, from 10 percent up to 19 percent. Smoking is a leading cause of high blood pressure. Vaping can lead to high blood pressure — vaping is not safer than inhaling tobacco from a cigarette, or second-hand. Drinking alcohol is linked too. Excessive alcohol consumption can increase blood pressure. Many large studies have reported that drinking more than three drinks per day can fuel high blood pressure. Under the new guidelines, about three-quarters of all men age 55-74 may now be diagnosed with high blood pressure. It is predicted that Latino and black men will experience a 17 percent increase in rates. Asian men will likely see a 16 percent increase. Many people do not even know what their blood pressure is. Although doctor visits or trips to urgent care always involve a blood pressure reading, many people do not pay attention to it or remember it. A reading of 120/80 means 120 is the pressure in blood vessels when the heart beats, and 80 is the pressure when the heart rests in between beats. In the past, abnormally high blood pressure, also called hypertension, was anything higher than 140/90. The new guidelines lowered that, and now any reading greater than 130/80 will be treated as high. Readings above 120/80 will be considered “elevated.” High blood pressure can be treated with lifestyle changes. “Simply changing what you eat can bring down systolic (the first number) blood pressure by as much as 11 points, and each additional healthy habit you adopt can bring it down another

‘‘

The guidelines were changed because recent large population studies found that blood pressures above 120/80 put people at risk of having heart disease including chest pain, heart attack, heart failure, stroke, peripheral arterial disease or abdominal aortic aneurysm.” — Dr. Todd A. Bryant, Kaiser Permanente Chief of Cardiology for the Woodland Hills and Ventura Service Areas

four to five points,” according to Dr. Monique Tello, a Harvard Medical School faculty member. Prior to the new guidelines being issued, some healthcare providers had initiated monitoring programs on their own. For example, Kaiser Permanente had already started a hypertension program that included regular monitoring, lifestyle changes and medication if needed, as a multipronged effort to keep it at safe levels. From 2001 to 2013, safe hypertension control within Kaiser’s monitored members increased from about 50 percent to 90 percent. “Kaiser Permanente has been implementing monitoring that exceeds the national blood pressure control rates,” Dr. Todd A. Bryant, Kaiser Permanente Chief of Cardiology for the Woodland Hills and Ventura Service Areas, wrote to the Ventura County Reporter in an email. “In addition, the Centers for Disease Control Prevention’s ‘Million Hearts’ hypertension program endorses Kaiser Permanente’s treatment algorithm as an evidence-based protocol to adopt,” Bryant explained. Kaiser Permanente has been recognized by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control for its hypertension treatment program, which has resulted in some of the highest blood-pressure control rates in the nation. “The guidelines were changed because recent large population studies found that blood pressures above 120/80 put people at risk of having heart disease including chest pain, heart attack, heart failure, stroke, peripheral arterial disease or abdominal aortic aneurysm,” Bryant wrote. “Evidence has changed since the last national guideline, the Eighth Joint National Committee (JNC8), which was published in 2014. In particular, the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT), which was completed in 2015, showed significant benefit for a more aggressive blood pressure goal in high-risk and older patients,” Bryant explained. The SPRINT was a National Institutes of Health project with more than 9,300 participants in clinical trials. Ventura County Public Health data show that between 2005 and 2016, only about 16 percent of county residents under age 45 had high blood pressure. About 33 percent of those age 45-64 had high blood pressure. Using the new guidelines, the percentage of county residents under 45 headed for

hypertension will increase. For county residents 65 and older, about 52 percent were diagnosed with high blood pressure during the data collection. Ethnic differences emerge in county data as well. Latino highblood-pressure cases comprised about 16 percent of all cases, black residents accounted for about 58 percent of cases, Asians were about 2 percent and whites were almost 33 percent. Blood pressure can be decreased by not smoking; by eating a diet of vegetables, fruit, fish and lean meat; eating less or no sodium and salt; exercising about 30 minutes a day at least five days a week; and not drinking excessive alcohol. Another key factor is knowing and keeping track of one’s own blood pressure. This is important because hypertension can lead to heart disease, and heart disease is the No. 1 killer of both men and women in the U.S. High blood pressure puts unnecessary strain on the arteries that serve the heart, especially if those arteries are narrowed by a buildup of fat and cholesterol. Although it’s often thought of as a “men’s disease,” the same number of women as men die each year from heart disease. In fact, CDC data show that heart disease is the leading cause of death in U.S. women. Men and women can have heart attacks for different reasons. These differences feed the perception that heart disease is a men’s disease. Men with heart disease tend to have blockage in their arteries that stops blood flow to the heart, whereas women don’t always have such blockages. Instead, women might have problems in the tiny vessels near the heart. These problems are less detectable than male blockages, and sometimes women’s symptoms do not show up in typical tests, including electrocardiograms. This makes it hard to pinpoint cardiovascular disease in women. Data from the CDC’s “Million Hearts” initiative show that more than 800,000 people die of heart disease each year in the U.S., and 160,000 of them are under 65. What the new guidelines suggest is that people are fooling themselves if they believe that only the elderly or obese are at risk. Unless a person’s blood pressure is known, they really cannot know whether their health is in danger. ✦

JUST THE FACTS Blood pressure Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries that carry blood from your heart to other parts of your body. Blood pressure normally rises and falls throughout the day, but it can damage your heart and cause health problems if it stays high for a long time. High blood pressure is also called hypertension. Having high blood pressure puts you at risk for heart disease and stroke, which are leading causes of death in the United States. About 75 million American adults (32 percent) have high blood pressure — that’s 1 in every 3 adults. About 1 in 3 American adults has prehypertension — blood pressure numbers that are higher than normal — but not yet in the high blood pressure range. Only about half (54 percent) of people with high blood pressure have their condition under control. High blood pressure was a primary or contributing cause of death for more than 410,000 Americans in 2014 — that’s more than 1,100 deaths each day. High blood pressure costs the nation $48.6 billion each year. This total includes the cost of health care services, medications to treat high blood pressure and missed days of work. Coronary heart disease CAD is caused by plaque buildup in the walls of the arteries that supply blood to the heart (called coronary arteries) and other parts of the body. Plaque is made up of deposits of cholesterol and other substances in the artery. Plaque buildup causes the inside of the arteries to narrow over time, which could partially or totally block the blood flow. This process is called atherosclerosis. Too much plaque buildup and narrowed artery walls can make it harder for blood to flow through your body. When your heart muscle doesn’t get enough blood, you may have chest pain or discomfort, called angina. Angina is the most common symptom of CAD. Over time, CAD can weaken the heart muscle. This may lead to heart failure, a serious condition where the heart can’t pump blood the way that it should. An irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia, also can develop. To find out your risk for CAD, your health care team may measure your blood pressure, cholesterol, and sugar levels. Being overweight, physical inactivity, unhealthy eating and smoking tobacco are risk factors for CAD. A family history of heart disease also increases your risk for CAD. If you’re at high risk for heart disease or already have symptoms, your doctor can use several tests to diagnose CAD. Heart attack Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a heart attack. A heart attack, also called a myocardial infarction, occurs when a part of the heart muscle doesn’t receive enough blood flow. The more time that passes without treatment to restore blood flow, the greater the damage to the heart muscle. Learn more about the signs and symptoms of a heart attack. Every year, about 790,000 Americans have a heart attack. Of these case: 580,000 are a first heart attack. 210,000 happen to people who have already had a first heart attack. One of 5 heart attacks is silent — the damage is done, but the person is not aware of it. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the main cause of heart attack. A less common cause is a severe spasm, or sudden contraction, of a coronary artery that can stop blood flow to the heart muscle. If you know the signs and symptoms of a heart attack and recognize that you or someone near you is having a heart attack, seek immediate treatment by calling 9-1-1. The longer you wait, the more damage to the heart muscle can occur. SOURCE: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

onstage Mister Roberts at the High Street Arts Center by Emily Dodi

t’s comedy and drama on the high seas as Mister Roberts sets sail at the High Street Arts Center through May 6. The play, written by Thomas Heggen and Joshua Logan and based on Heggen’s novel, takes place aboard the United States Navy cargo ship Reluctant, stationed in the “backwaters” of the Pacific during the final days of World War II. Mister Roberts made its Broadway debut in 1948 with Henry Fonda in the title role, for which he won a Tony Award for Best Actor. Fonda reprised the role in the 1955 film version, which famously co-starred James Cagney as the Lilliputian tyrant Capt. Morton, William Powell as Doc and Jack Lemmon in his Oscar-winning role as Ensign Frank Pulver. Those are impossibly big shoes to fill but the High Street Arts Center production, directed by John Tedrick, earns marks for nostalgia. Mr. Roberts (R. Shane Bingham), the ship’s executive officer and cargo chief, is the only thing standing between the crew and the petty and vindictive Captain Morton (Dale Alpert). Morton shows more respect to his prized potted plant than he does to his men. He goes out of his way to punish them by trying to push Roberts to the breaking point. Roberts takes the heat with a cool Midwestern levelheadedness, but in his heart he rebels and yearns to be where the action is. Roberts writes letter after letter requesting a transfer, citing “disharmony” aboard the Reluctant. The letters are a thorn in the captain’s side and they stoke his ire to volcanic proportions. Capt. Morton thinks he has finally bested Roberts when he threatens to cancel the crew’s long-overdue liberty unless Roberts

Past, present and the Popes The Smoking Popes bring an emotional pop-punk time machine to Camarillo by Emily Savage

emilyannesavage@gmail.com

“It’s cool how songs can take you on an emotional time machine back to a place and let you think about certain things when you hear those songs,” says Josh Caterer, 46, lead singer, songwriter and guitarist of renowned Chicago suburbs-born pop-punk band the Smoking Popes. “It gives you a mental and emotional picture. We get to do that every time we play our songs.” Despite the emotional time machine members have been riding since forming in 1991 —hiatuses, splits and lineup changes, new faith, growing up, having children — the band still has a core of brothers at its heart: Josh, Eli (guitar) and Matt (bass) Caterer. They grew up in Lake in the Hills, Illinois, listening to and learning to play music together, which Josh says is a definite advantage. “A lot of our communication can be nonverbal when we’re arranging songs,” he explains. “Our instincts are similar. I’ll write a song and bring it to them, and everyone just jumps in and starts playing their parts.” He says the brothers first got into AC/DC together but that quickly led to the Ramones, the Buzzcocks, Dead Kennedys and the Circle Jerks. Almost paradoxically, Josh says they were also influenced by musicals, in particular The Music Man, which was on heavy rotation in their household. “One of my favorite songs from that is ‘Goodnight My Someone,’ ” he says, pausing to sing a few bars. “That’s just a lovely melody with a lullaby vibe, and that carried over into a lot of our songs. To me, when I sing that, I feel like I could’ve written that song.” He says he’s considered writing a musical himself one day, but for now, he’s content to be touring. In 1997, the Smoking Popes released the album Destina-

tion Failure on Capitol Records. It came four years after the landmark debut Get Fired, and touched on melancholy tales of spurned lovers and youthful angst — along with a delightfully moody rendition of “Pure Imagination” from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Now, 20+ years later, the Smoking Popes will make a stop in Camarillo at Rock City Studios on May 1 on a tour looking back at that seminal album. Josh says they’ll stay mostly true to the original arrangements. “You want to present a version of the song that’s recognizable, but then also feel the freedom within that to maybe improvise a little and make the performance inspired.” In addition to tracks from Destination Failure, the band will be playing fan favorites and even some brand-new songs on this tour. While the Smoking Popes have continually added new material to their catalog, there are some songs they’ve been playing since the near beginning. “Ever since 1994, we’ve been playing ‘Need You Around’ at every show.” “I feel like we’ve changed and some of our circumstances have changed, but a lot of these songs we have are like our old friends that are always with us,” Josh adds. “We keep bringing See POPES on next page

t’s spring and, despite some lingering cool weather, temperatures are rising with a full dose of the blues in the forecast this weekend. Kicking off the season, the Ventura County Blues Society is bringing its 13th annual Ventura County Blues Festival to Camarillo on Saturday. The festival will be held at Studio Channel Islands in Old Town Camarillo. Gates open at 10 a.m.; music starts around 11 a.m. This year’s headliners will be John Nemeth and Earl Thomas, with performances by Deb Ryder, Alan Wright Band and Sandy Scott and Blues to the Bone as well. The finale will feature the Ventura County Blues Society AllStar Jam. According to Michael John, founder and coordinator of the Ventura County Blues Festival and Ventura County Blues Society (VCBS), it all started with an Independence Day celebration. “I am a musician myself,” said John, “and I have so many musician friends. One Fourth of July, we had a big party. All my friends came over and we were having a great time, and that’s where I came up with the idea to put a festival together to give back to the community. And what better way to do than with all these musicians?” Funds raised from this year’s festival will support Safety Harbor Kids (safetyharborkids.org), which provides tutoring services for homeless, foster and orphan children. Food Share Ventura County will also be available to receive nonperishable food items. The festival will also be dedicated to its longtime friend, Mickey Jones, who died in February. Jones, known for his work nationally as a drummer and actor, served as the event’s emcee for many years. Other noted updates this year include allowing highbacked chairs and food options that will include vegan and gluten-free menu choices. Attendees will also have a chance to view some of the artists’ studios located at Studio Channel Islands. The best “hassle-free” option for parking is to park free at the Amtrak Station on the corner of Lewis Road and Ventura Blvd. A free trolley is also available, leaving the station approximately every half hour, 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Exit the trolley at Stop 9. Regardless of the weather forecast, fans of the blues can expect good times and hot music to be pouring out of Camarillo on Saturday. ✦

The Ventura County Blues Festival takes place on Saturday, April 28, starting at 10 a.m. at Studio Channel Islands, 2222 E. Ventura Blvd., Camarillo. For more information, call 501-7122 or visit venturacountyblues.com.

FILM+MEDIA

Rampage by Tim Pompey

tjpompey@gmail.com Rampage Directed by Brad Peyton Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Naomie Harris, Jeffrey Dean Morgan Rated PG-13 for sequences of violence, action and destruction, brief language and crude gestures 1 hr. 47 mins.

like movies about monkeys, and I’m a big fan of Dwayne Johnson. So put them together and you might have something enjoyable. Not. The only point to this film is to watch weird wolf and alligator creatures and a 9-foot albino gorilla rip up Chicago. If you think the city deserves it — say you’re a St. Louis Cardinals or Green Bay Packers fan — then you’ll be in monkey heaven. Otherwise, there are millions of dollars in special effects that go to waste and a performance by Johnson that is subpar. Still, you can’t really blame him. He isn’t given much to do except chase these creatures down. The movie opens with a spacecraft named Athena-1 owned by a genetics research firm called Energyne. It’s doing genetic mutation experiments with rats, big ones as it turns out. When the experiments go awry, Dr. Kerry Atkins (Marley Shelton) tries to hightail it back to Earth with the lab research in an escape pod.

Silly monkey shenanigans

Unfortunately, the pod explodes upon re-entry and the canisters, filled with some type of green gas, fall to earth — conveniently near animal habitats. Thus, Energyne accidently creates a genetically mutated and extremely enlarged gorilla (George), a giant wolf that looks like a porcupine (Ralph) and the weirdest and largest alligator I’ve ever seen (Lizzie). Yes, they have names. As we all know, you can’t have a pet (or a pet project) without a name. Davis Okoye (Dwayne Johnson) works at the San Diego Wildlife Preserve. His specialty is primates, and he’s particularly fond of George. When George starts to grow

‘‘

out why you can’t kill these things with guns. Rampage isn’t about story. It’s about special effects and explosions. Based loosely on a video game of the same name released in 1986, the film is adapted for nothing more meaningful than destroying stuff. Fun if you’re playing the game. Not so fun to watch. Better if we had joysticks. Director Brad Peyton assembles Rampage in videogame fashion, even embedding his special effects with night vision and long-range shots of Ralph, Lizzie and George tearing the hell out of downtown Chicago. As for Johnson, he carries the film with a sense of humor that only he can manage, and he does engage in some amusing but crude sign language with George that can only be described as boys being boys. It all wraps up nicely with a big joke that the director plays on the audience. When you realize you’ve been duped, you can’t help but laugh. It’s on the same level with whoopie cushions. Good one, Brad. There’s no real reason to see this unless you’re a fan of the game or you just want to watch Chicago being shredded. I did appreciate Lizzie, who I thought stole the show from George for a bit. Maybe a spinoff would be nice. Other than that, Rampage is one for the scrap heap, unless, of course, you like big piles of metal and fire and weird animals plowing over the military. Fun, fun, fun — but pointless. Which I think is the point. ♦

Rampage isn’t about story. It’s about special effects and explosions. like a bean sprout and kills a grizzly bear, Davis is puzzled. He’s even more concerned when he gets a call from Dr. Kate Caldwell (Naomie Harris) about Energyne’s dangerous genetic research. Something to do with advancing CRISPR (you’ll have to look this up, it’s a real field of study) as a cure for disease. The chase is on as George escapes his cage (twice) and wrecks an airplane in the process. He and Ralph and Lizzie head for Chicago based on a radio signal that’s been genetically implanted in their heads. Another Energyne advancement. All you need to know is that no one in the military, the police or the FBI can figure

and two Child’s Teas for the table, with chicken salad, caramel-apple brie, cucumber, curried egg salad and smoked salmon sandwiches. All were wonderful in their own way — very fresh, with soft, flavorful bread and delicately seasoned fillings. The currant scone was not too sweet or too rich, definitely biscuitlike but with a soft crumb — perfect with a sip of tea, even better with a dollop of lemon curd or fresh cream. The desserts — cheesecake petit fours, caramel cream puffs and rich chocolate truffles, plus two shortbread starfish and mini cupcakes for the child’s tea — were indeed dainty and delicious. When staring down tiers of sandwiches and sweets, it’s easy to forget the tea. But Tranquility is adept at both liquid and solid refreshment. The tea poured from those gorgeous teapots was delicious. The red velvet rooibos tasted exactly like red velvet cake, the sweet flavor of stone fruit was perfectly balanced with the pekoe tannins in the apricot black tea, and the oolong was beautifully smoky. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy Old World charm with a hot cup of tea and its traditional accompaniments, Tranquility Tea Room is an excellent choice. The touch of whimsy, with the themes and games and costumes, makes for a fun, even magical, time. We left thoroughly enchanted, looking forward to the next teatime adventure. ♦

ADVICE GODDESS

Girl-on-girl inaction

hate to be trite, but my wife and I are experiencing “lesbian bed death.” We’ve been happily married for three years. I’m not sure why we’re not having sex. Sure, we’re both busy, but it’s more a question of just not ever feeling the urge. I know sex is important for a relationship, and I’m worried. Is there a way to reboot our sex life?

— Bedfriends It’s understandably depressing if the only time there’s heavy breathing in the bedroom is when you’re re-enacting WrestleMania XXV — that is, trying to get the duvet cover on. This doesn’t mean you should buy into the lesbo-bashing notion of “lesbian bed death” — the myth that lesbian relationships, in particular,

by amy alkon

are where sex goes to die. The term traces back to a finding from social psychologist Phillip Blumstein and sociologist Pepper Schwartz, published in their 1983 book, American Couples: Money, Work, Sex. Blumstein and Schwartz, reviewing results from their survey of 12,000 American couples, announced that lesbians in relationships “have sex less frequently by far than any other type of couple.” This single survey led to decades of sneering about lesbian relationships as the province of hot hand-holding. However, psychologist Suzanne Iasenza notes that a bunch of subsequent studies found that lesbians tend to be more sexually assertive and sexually satisfied than straight ladies — as well as less orgasm-challenged. (Helps when you know your way around the ladyparts without needing a two-hour lecture and a female anatomy PowerPoint.) The reality is, so-called lesbian bed death actually happens to heterosexual women — once they get into relationships. In other words, the real issue is not being a lesbian but being a woman in a long-term partnership — and the assumption that male sexual response, driven by spontaneously occurring lust,

Sex researcher Rosemary Basson, M.D., finds that when a relationship is brand-new or when women are apart from their partners for days or weeks, they’re likely to experience the “spontaneous sexual hunger” that men tend to have. However, once a relationship has been going for a while, women’s sexual desire becomes “responsive.” It isn’t gone. It’s “triggerable” — which is to say it’s hibernating until somebody

The reality is, so-called lesbian bed death actually happens to heterosexual women — once they get into relationships.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

Imagine you’re one of four porcupines caught in frigid weather. To keep warm, you all have the urge to huddle together and pool your body heat. But whenever you try to get close, you prick each other with your quills. The only solution to that problem is to move away from each other, even though it means you can’t quell your chill as well. This scenario was used by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud as a parable for the human dilemma. We want to be intimate with each other, Freud said, but we hurt each other when we try. The oft-chosen solution is to be partially intimate: not as close as we would like to be, but only as much as we can bear. Now everything I just said, Aries, is a preface for better news: In the coming weeks, neither your own quills nor those of the people you care about will be as sharp or as long as usual.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

The Simpsons is the longest-running American TV sitcom and animated series. But it had a rough start. In the fall of 1989, when producers staged a private pre-release screening of the first episode, they realized the animation was mediocre. They worked hard to redo it, replacing 70 percent of the original content. After that slow start, the process got easier and the results got better. When the program completes its 30th season in 2019, it will have aired 669 episodes. I don’t know if your own burgeoning project will ultimately have as enduring a presence, Taurus, but I’m pretty sure that, like The Simpsons, it will eventually become better than it is in the early going. Stick with it.

a wasteland; or rescue and restore a moldering treasure you stopped taking care of a while back; or revive a faltering commitment you’ve been ignoring for reasons that aren’t very high-minded. Is there a secret joy you’ve been denying yourself without good cause? Renew your relationship with it. Is there a rough prize you received before you were ready to make smart use of it? Maybe you’re finally ready. Are you brave enough to dismantle a bad habit that hampers your self-mastery? I suspect you are.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

The Hollywood film industry relies heavily on recycled ideas. In 2014, for example, only one of the 10 top-grossing movies — Interstellar — was not a sequel, remake, reboot or episode in a franchise. In the coming weeks and months, Cancerian, you’ll generate maximum health and wisdom for yourself by being more like Interstellar than like The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Transformers: Age of Extinction, X-Men: Days of Future Past and the six other top-10 rehashes of 2014. Be original!

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Long ago, in the land we now call Italy, humans regarded Mars as the divine protector of fields. He was the fertility god who ripened the food crops. Farmers said prayers to him before planting seeds, asking for his blessings. But as the Roman Empire arose, and warriors began to outnumber farmers, the deity who once served as a kind benefactor evolved into a militant champion, even a fierce and belligerent conqueror. In accordance with current astrological omens, Leo, I encourage you to evolve in the opposite direction. Now is an excellent time to transmute aggressiveness and combativeness into fecundity and tenderness.

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

You sometimes get superstitious when life is going well. You worry about growing overconfident. You’re afraid that if you enjoy yourself too much, you will anger the gods and jinx your good fortune. Is any of that noise clouding your mood these days? I hope not; it shouldn’t be. The truth, as I see it, is that your intuition is extra-strong and your decision-making is especially adroit. More luck than usual is flowing in your vicinity, and you have an enhanced knack for capitalizing on it. In my estimation, therefore, the coming weeks will be a favorable time to build up your hunger for vivid adventures and bring your fantasies at least one step closer to becoming concrete realities. Whisper the following to yourself as you drop off to sleep each night: “I will allow myself to think bigger and bolder than usual.”

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

The bad news is that 60 percent of Nevada’s Lake Mead has dried up. The good news — at least for historians, tourists and hikers — is that the Old West town of St. Thomas has re-emerged. It had sunk beneath the water in 1936, when the government built the dam that created the lake. But as the lake has shrunk in recent years, old buildings and roads have reappeared. I foresee a comparable resurfacing in your life, Libra: the return of a lost resource or vanished possibility or departed influence.

that originally brought you together. 2. Talk about the influences you’ve had on each other and the ways your relationship has evolved. 3. Fantasize about the inspirations and help you’d like to offer each other in the future. 4. Brainstorm about the benefits your connection has provided and will provide for the rest of the world.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Now is one of the rare times when you should be alert for the potential downsides of blessings that usually sustain you. Even the best things in life could require adjustments. Even your most enlightened attitudes and mature beliefs may have pockets of ignorance. So don’t be a prisoner of your own success or a slave of good habits. Your ability to adjust and make corrections will be key to the most interesting kind of progress you can achieve in the coming weeks.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Capricorn author Simone de Beauvoir was a French feminist and activist. In her book A Transatlantic Love Affair, she made a surprising confession: Thanks to the assistance of a new lover, Nelson Algren, she finally had her first orgasm at age 39. Better late than never, right? I suspect that you, too, are currently a good candidate to be transported to a higher octave of pleasure. Even if you’re an old pro at sexual climax, there may be a new level of bliss awaiting you in some other way. Ask for it! Seek it out! Solicit it!

I hope the next seven weeks will be a time of renaissance for your most engaging alliances. The astrological omens suggest it can be. Would you like to take advantage of this cosmic invitation? If so, try the following strategies. 1. Arrange for you and each of your close companions to relive the time when you first met. Recall and revitalize the dispensation

Can you afford to hire someone to do your busy work for a while? If so, do it. If not, see if you can avoid the busy work for a while. In my astrological opinion, you need to deepen and refine your skills at lounging around and doing nothing. The cosmic omens

SCORPIO

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

strongly and loudly and energetically suggest that you should be soft and quiet and placid. It’s time for you to recharge your psychospiritual batteries as you dream up new approaches to making love, making money and making sweet nonsense. Please say a demure “no, thanks” to the strident demands of the status quo, my dear. Trust the stars in your own eyes.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

I believe it’s a favorable time for you to add a new mentor to your entourage. If you don’t have a mentor, go exploring until you find one. In the next five weeks, you might even consider mustering a host of fresh teachers, guides, trainers, coaches, and initiators. My reading of the astrological omens suggests that you’re primed to learn twice as much and twice as fast about every subject that will be important for you during the next two years. Your future educational needs require your full attention. Homework: Choose two ancestors with whom you’d like to have closer relationships. Contact their spirits in your dreams.
