OPINION Editorial

Ventura moves cannabis forward S

ome good news for cannabis consumers and entrepreneurs in Ventura. Ventura City Council on Monday, March 4, unanimously approved moving forward with the development of regulations for marijuana delivery in the city, given a statewide law effective Jan. 1 that made it legal to deliver cannabis despite any ongoing local municipal pushback. Meanwhile, in Port Hueneme, new dispensaries and related innovative entrepreneurial pursuits are the name of the game. This slowly evolving progressive stance on marijuana in Ventura couldn’t come at a better time in our society. With a recent analysis by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, deaths from alcohol, drugs (specifically the opioid epidemic) and suicide hit an all-time high since federal data collection began in 1999. In total, the number of such deaths rose from 43.9 to 46.6 deaths per 100,000 people. Suicide went up from 13.9 to 14.5 deaths per 100,000, an increase of 4 percent. According to a joint study by the University of Connecticut and Georgia State University in 2017, the research showed a correlation with marijuana serving as a substitute for alcohol. “We use data on purchases of alcoholic beverages in U.S. counties for 2006-2015 to study the link between marijuana laws and alcohol sales. To do this we exploit the differences in the timing of the marijuana laws among states and find that these two substances are strong substitutes. . . . [W]e find that counties located in medical marijuana legalization states reduced monthly alcohol sales by 12.4 percent,” the report concluded. The Distilled Spirits Council did its own report recently, however, contesting the joint study’s findings, concluding that

Wildlife corridor consideration On Tuesday, March 12, the Ventura County Board of Supervisors will vote on rules to minimize impacts of human activity where wild animals roam and native plants grow. The proposed Wildlife Corridor plan creates rules for new development and if a landowner feels anything is too onerous, they can ask for a variance. Land owners, many of whom already do so much to sustain the wild places surrounding and within their land, may find it easier than expected to incorporate the new rules into any future plans and will enjoy firsthand the benefits of conserving wild habitat. There is always pushback to changes in rules, especially when it comes to land use — and this is no different. Objections being raised by some landowners involve security lighting, setbacks around waterways and wild-

spirits sales went up in three states where marijuana is legal — Colorado, Oregon and Washington state. But anecdotally speaking, there are plenty of stories of locals right here in Ventura County who attest to giving up opioid, meth and alcohol use in favor of marijuana. While studies may be conflicting on alcohol sales, there are plenty who would testify to the benefits of cannabis saving their lives, getting them away from hard alcohol and substance abuse. While Ventura Police Chief Ken Corney talked about unlicensed deliveries occurring in the city, three of which were robbed, he did ultimately respond in favor of regulations and moving forward. The new regulations to be considered include requiring a city business license of the retail delivery service, compliance with Bureau of Cannabis Control regulations, limiting delivery to residential addresses only, restricting delivery to residential addresses located beyond 1,000 feet of schools (k-12) during school hours, requiring “dash cams” in delivery vehicles, regulation if other cannabis-related products can also be delivered, regulation of deliveries of live plants/seeds and requiring delivery services to include city-approved public education materials (i.e., negative health impacts to youth and DUI prevention). Some of these regulations may be overly cautious, but still, progress. We look forward to the city having a positive relationship with local cannabis business owners and law enforcement as society continues to ail from the negative effects of alcohol and opioids. With a change in perspective, great things may come to pass, such as reversing these lethal substance trends.

fire mitigation. Some are saying the new rules will increase fire danger: Ventura County Fire Protection District Chief Mark Lorenzen stated in a letter to Ventura County Planning, “…there are sufficient accommodations and exemptions in the ordinance to allow the Ventura County Fire Department the ability to maintain vegetation management and fuel treatments in the proposed wildlife corridors.” Some are saying security and safety lighting is not allowed: Security and safety lighting are allowed. All night time events and parties can still be well-lit. When the people leave and cleanup is done, the lights must be turned off. Some new rules do require existing lights be altered to be aimed toward the ground and/or be shielded — changes must be made within three years. That seems like an ample amount of time to comply. Some are saying waterways don’t need a 200-foot buffer: All living things require water for survival. The waterways covered by the plan are in one of the three watersheds in the county—all of which feed the surface water and groundwater basins we rely on for

drinking and irrigation. These riparian areas around streams and ponds (manmade water features are exempt) are vital for wildlife and they contribute to the water we humans also depend on. The setback for new development next to waterways (remember commercial ag is exempt) should be 200 feet as recommended originally by County staff. When we protect the wild places around us we protect our own water sources and air quality. We live in the backyard of badgers, foxes, bobcats and mountain lions. We can and should be excellent neighbors.

Revitalize with efficiency The best thing we can do to make Ventura County an attractive place to live for all income levels is to revitalize our cities with dense, walkable, mixed-use development that prioritizes people and public transit over cars and parking lots. In addition to increasing housing supply and easing the burden on our citizens, this is also the sort of development pattern that will be needed to meet California’s ambitious climate goals. Suburban, car-oriented housing supports fewer businesses, leads to more vehicle miles traveled, consumes more municipal maintenance dollars per acre, and occupies more of our beautiful natural lands and agricultural spaces. Even with aggressive adoption of electric vehicles our state will still need more than a 15 percent reduction in vehicle miles traveled to meet our climate targets. The way to do that is to build dense, efficient cities that get people out of cars and onto sidewalks, bikes, buses and trains. Christopher Tull Oxnard

Balancing act Taxpayers Association, Santa Paula agree to disagree on legal use of city funds by Chris O’Neal chris@vcreporter.com

harp-eyed members of the Ventura County Taxpayers Association caught a possibly legal conundrum in the city of Santa Paula’s 2018-19 annual budget last year and had considered the matter sorted after a meeting with city officials in January, but the city is disputing whether or not they came to the same conclusion. The issue arose from the use of the city’s water resource in-lieu fees allocated to pay water replenishment charges in the city’s 2018-19 Fiscal Year budget. The Ventura County Taxpayers Association issued a statement in September 2018 alleging that the city’s use of these fees to pay a $600,000 United Water Conservation District bill violated both city municipal code and state law. Water resource in-lieu fees are collected when a project such as new housing or other types of development are approved without an adequate supply of water if the developer is unable to supply their own. The fees are, in theory, supposed to be saved and used for capital projects that would essentially make up for the water deficit. Following an article on the budget in the VCStar in June 2018, the Taxpayers Association wrote that the city was in violation of both the city code and a state a law that says that a city must identify uses of fees collected for development and that these water in-lieu fees were specifically to “develop or acquire additional water rights or water resources,” as written in the city code. The VCTA wrote a letter to both the Santa Paula City Council and City Manager Michael Rock on the subject in September 2018 in which the specific codes violated are named, two city (SPMC § 52.021(A) and SPMC § 52.021(E)) and one state (Government Code section 66001). The VCTA asked that the city clarify how the monies taken from the fund were to be spent, but VCTA President David Grau says that weeks passed and no response was given. In October, the Association released an article penned by Grau questioning the city’s fiscal future, noting that the city has less than one-third of a healthy emergency reserve ($735,000 of a needed $2.2 million, writes Grau) and that “Anyone who lives or works in Santa Paula should be concerned.” Referencing the September letter, Grau wrote that the city had yet to respond to whether or not the transfer of water in-lieu funds had violated city and state codes. Santa Paula officials responded to the VCTA following the second public letter. In January, two representatives from the Association met with Rock, Santa Paula City Mayor Clint Garman and the city’s attorney to discuss the issue. Grau was one of those in attendance. Grau says that at that meeting, everyone was in agreement that the funds should not have been included in the budget and that it had been a mistake to do so. “I’ll take it at their word that it was a mistake but they clearly admitted that they should not be using that money to pay their water bill,” said Grau. On Feb. 26, the VCTA penned a third letter. Grau says that the Association sent the letter to the city three weeks before publicizing it, and receiving no

response, posted it to the VCTA website and sent it via newsletter to subscribers. In the letter, Grau writes, “At the meeting, both the City Manager and City Attorney agreed with VCTA that it was a violation of Santa Paula’s ordinance and the Government Code to use water in-lieu fees to pay city water bills, or for any general operating expense” and that the City Manager recognized the “serious error” and that it needed correction. On Feb. 28, the city of Santa Paula disputed what happened at the January meeting, taking issue with the VCTA’s usage of such words as “gimmick” or “misuse” in the newsletter. “While City staff never agreed that the appropriation violated the water resource in-lieu fee ordinance or the Government Code to use water-in-lieu fees to pay city water bills or for any general operating expense as asserted by the VCTA, the City did agree to reallocate the budget appropriation to the water operations fund,” wrote City Manager Michael Rock. Rock notes that the $500,000 had not been spent. Grau says that he was surprised when the city released the statement in disagreement. “We pointed it out, we had the facts on our side, and after the meeting everybody agreed, the only thing we left open at that point was we were curious where they’d come up with half a million bucks, and we left it at that,” said Grau. “To say that it was a violation is not something that all legal scholars would agree on,” said Rock. “We all had our own legal opinion on it and could not come to a crystal clear resolution on how that money could be spent so we decided in the abundance of caution to put the money back into the in-lieu fund.” Rock says that the bill will be paid out of the water operations budget via a capital reserve fund, which he says totals around $6 million, adding that the city has several capital water projects that will be funded via the water in-lieu fees and will be discussed in May. The City of Santa Paula does in fact have much to think about in regard to budgeting for the future. In 2018, the city joined the Ventura County Fire Protection District, and in doing so, agreed to transfer 79 percent of the city’s property tax revenue annually, as well as a $4 million development impact fee and a $1 million 1.5 acre lot. This comes two years after city voters approved Measure T in 2016, which increased sales tax by 1 percent, and the City Council allocated most of the funds generated from the tax toward wage increases for city employees. Rock says that the city budgeted $3 million annually for the Santa Paula Fire Department and now, without that expense, pays $2.9 million to the county as being part of the District. “It’s not that we’re losing money or having to make up money in to the general fund, we’re simply paying for fire services in a different way and it’s a wash,” said Rock. Grau says that the water in-lieu fund being tapped was more than likely done in order to balance a budget that is growing increasingly harder to balance. “Like a lot of the cities, they’re having difficulties balancing their budget and this one might ✦ have slipped through,” said Grau.

In Brief OXNARD COUNCILWOMAN CARMEN RAMIREZ TO RUN IN COUNTY SUPERVISOR RACE

Longtime Oxnard City Councilwoman Carmen Ramirez announced on Wednesday, March 6, her intention to run for Ventura County Supervisor in the 2020 primary elections, replacing retiring Supervisor John Zaragoza. Zaragoza has held the District 5 seat since November 2008 and, like Ramirez, served on the Oxnard City Council, his tenure beginning in 1996. District 5 covers the Oxnard communities of Oxnard Shores, Mandalay Bay, Silver Strand, Hollywood Beach, Hollywood by the Sea, Channel Islands Harbor, El Rio, Nyeland Acres, Del Norte, Oxnard College, Oxnard Plain, Strickland and a portion of the Ventura County Naval Base Port Hueneme. Ramirez, who has served on the City Council since 2010, launched her career in the legal profession as a public interest attorney and is currently Oxnard’s Mayor Pro Tem, focusing on environmental issues as well as social justice. One of her most notable issues arose from her opposition to new power plants on the coast. “I fought to keep polluting, toxic industries out of Oxnard, and I voted to strengthen Oxnard’s infrastructure, sustainability and financial health,” said Ramirez in her announcement statement. “The people have had excellent representation in previous County supervisors who represent Oxnard. And now it is time for me to step up. While we as a community and a county face many difficulties, I believe my skills and experience can help meet those challenges.” Zaragoza has endorsed Ramirez, expressing his opinion that “Carmen will do a good job.” The election will be held on Tuesday, March 3, 2020.

MOORPARK ROTARY CLUB SCHOLARSHIP IN HONOR OF SGT. RON HELUS

The Moorpark Morning Rotary Club has announced a scholarship honoring Sgt. Ron Helus who died during the Borderline Bar and Grill shooting in in 2018. The annual scholarship will be open to Moorpark students who wish to pursue a career in law enforcement. The Rotary Club, supported by the Helus family, has set a goal of $100,000 and is currently accepting donations ahead of the award ceremony to be held in June. Sgt. Helus, a 29-year Moorpark resident, served with the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department and was fatally shot while engaging the suspect of the Borderline Shooting on Nov. 7, 2018. “The recent events in our community have made us more grateful than ever for the selfless service of our law enforcement officers,” said Tara Thomas, president of the Moorpark Morning Rotary Club. “This scholarship is our way of both honoring Sgt. Helus and showing our appreciation to local students who plan to dedicate themselves to this noble profession.” An endowment fund has been established at the Ventura County Community Foundation. Donations can be

made by visiting bit.ly/2RNuiF4 or by mailing a check with “Ron Helus” in the subject line to Rotary Club of Moorpark Morning Foundation, 212 Los Angeles Ave. #212, Moorpark, CA 93021.

VENTURA HOUSING AUTHORITY RECEIVES FEDERAL GRANT

Over $65,000 in funds have been received by the Housing Authority of the City of San Buenaventura to assist in helping families reduce dependency on public assistance and rental subsidies. The funds, awarded via grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, will go toward administering the city’s Family Self-Sufficiency Program, which assists families in becoming financially independent and welfare free. In exchange for a five-year personal commitment to work with the program, participants receive case management services and can establish an escrow savings account, which becomes available to the participant after successful completion of the program and can be used for debt reduction or down payment on a home, for instance. The latest graduate from the program received a check for $34,000. For more information on the program, visit www.hacityventura.org.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT OPENS IN VENTURA

A 23-unit affordable housing project has officially opened on Ventura’s West End. The Riverside Street Apartments, developed by W & J Investments, LLC and built by Judson Builders, Inc., of Ventura, feature two- and three-bedroom apartments with an onsite community center, playground and mini soccer field. Also included are solar water and solar electrical generation equipment, which will give the complex zero net energy consumption. A ribbon cutting ceremony was held on Wednesday, Feb. 20. “One of the city of Ventura’s most critical priorities is to create affordable housing options for its residents,” said Ventura Mayor Matt LaVere. “This beautiful project, a collaboration of multiple partners, brings us closer to achieving that goal.”

POINT MUGU WILL SEE INCREASED AIR ACTIVITY IN MARCH

Ventura County residents, do not be alarmed. An increase in air traffic is to be expected beginning Monday, March 11, through Saturday, March 23, according to an Aircraft Advisory released by the Naval Base Ventura County. Multiple aircraft will be arriving at Point Mugu in support of a Large Force Exercise. The site will host FA-18 aircraft, among others, home based out of Naval Air Weapons Station in China Lake, California, during the exercise. The aircraft will operate during daylight hours in an effort to “provide unit-level training for pilots and aircrews on the Point Mugu Sea Range.” The advisory says that Oxnard and Camarillo residents may experience increased jet activity during the exercise period. —Chris O’Neal

Coding learning center Code Ninjas opens in Thousand Oaks by Chris O’Neal chris@vcreporter.com

ove over, monkey bars: There’s a new electronic playground for kids to perform amazing feats in their own backyards. Thousand Oaks’ Code Ninjas hosted its grand opening on Wednesday, March 6, at 1772 Avenida De Los Arboles, with former St. Louis Rams Super Bowl champion Roland Williams in attendance. Code Ninjas, aimed at kids aged 7 to 14, is designed to teach them how to design and build computer games while developing real-world computer programming skills. Dubbed “the new literacy of the 21st century” by Scott Matalon, owner of the Thousand Oaks franchise, kids enrolled in the program will work with their friends to develop logical thinking processes, build leadership skills and more. Matalon says that he would have loved to have a place like Code Ninjas when he was growing up. “I want to give youngsters in the community a jump-start in the job market of the future,” said Matalon. “Think about this: Gen Z’s (kids born from 1996 on) have never known life without the Internet, social media or smartphones. Their entire world involves some form of technology. Code Ninjas gives these kids an avenue to explore their world, their passions.” Code Ninjas adheres to the style inherent in the name. Instructors are dubbed “senseis” and the students are referred to as “ninjas.” Ninjas advance rank through the program in the same way a student of martial arts would, with the eventual goal of publishing a playable game on the App Store. Parents are given access to a so-called “parent portal” to keep track of their offsprings’ progress. Matalon, who has 18 years’ experience as an educator, says he was attracted to Code Ninjas because it offers something that the public school system is lacking. Father of three girls, Matalon says his 10-year old is enrolled in the program and that

he expects the others will eventually enroll as well. “It’s vitally important that they’ll have the skills they need to go out and look for a job. Without coding they’ll be so far behind in the field,” said Matalon. “The idea of coding and programming and computer science lends itself to really every career aspect there is, from agriculture, medicine, computer science; almost every aspect has some sort of computer programming in it.” A report from the World Economic Forum released in 2016 notes that “65 percent of children entering primary school today will ultimately end up working in completely new job types that don’t yet exist.” Matalon says that Code Ninjas preps kids for the future, providing a head start that they otherwise would not receive from public education. “It’s kind of the future, where we’re going as a society, and I’m happy to contribute to getting the kids that knowledge they need because they’re not getting it anywhere else,” said Matalon. A Code Ninjas membership acts somewhat like a gym membership with tiered monthly subscriptions based on what the family needs. A one-month trial with eight one-hour sessions is $150. Matalon says that Code Ninjas is a good fit for kids who have a strong desire to learn. “I have parents say my son or daughter never really got into football, they haven’t found what they like until we came in here,” said Matalon. “Seeing the reaction on their face when they come from a session and actually came across something that’s them and they can take ownership of and love to do, that’s what’s important, kids finding themselves through coding.” Code Ninjas is a national franchise chain with over 100 open locations, soon expanding to over 340 in 39 states and Canada.

ow in the thick of tax season, many folks are expressing worry over their tax returns, with some in a panic mode because they’re receiving very little if nothing at all — especially for those who intended to pay off some debt with expected funds from the IRS.

Refunds fall surprisingly short this year for many locals as debt piles up BY ALICIA DOYLE | ALICIA@ALICIADOYLE.COM

— March 7, 2019

For instance, one local resident, who is remaining anonymous to protect her financial privacy, said she will be paying more this year “which is baffling” because she made much less. Her worry is compounded by the fact that she’s caring for a partner who is ill, and also supports her partner’s disabled mother. “The household is already burdened and our current administration seems to be uncaring for the less financially solvent,” she said. “I guess if I made a lot more I would be getting something back. It’s increasingly more difficult to make ends meet.” The individual taxpayer spends his or her refund — in other words “found money” — for a variety of reasons, such as going on vacation, bolstering a savings account or purchasing goods, said Hratch J. Karakachian, a CPA and attorney in private practice in Glendale who is also a senior adjunct faculty member in the financial planning program in the School of Management at California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks. “Others use it to pay down debt,” said Karakachian. “Of course, for those individuals who have planned to use that money to pay down their debt . . . their expectation is not going to match up with the money they’re getting. If in fact they get a smaller amount, as a result, they’re not going to be able to meet their goal or anticipated goal they had planned on.” When it comes to paying down debt, from a financial perspective of dollars and cents, “it’s good for individuals and families to have control and make timely payments as much as possible, but things happen . . . and it’s much easier to charge things on a credit card for emergencies or to rely on a credit card to satisfy a need to purchase something . . . without forward thinking of how they’re going to pay for it.” There are a number of people who do this, Karakachian said, “because credit card debt in the United States is very, very high.” Depending on a tax return, however, to pay down this debt is not the best plan; rather, “it would be helpful if people are consistently paying their debt and trying to pay more than the minimum, and are disciplined about it and not incurring additional debt, which can help their credit score.” He noted that it’s better to have the foresight of discipline, and not falling behind; but unfortunately, “circumstances happen because of a job loss or loss of income . . . and their debt becomes very challenging. They’ll start missing payments and that will negatively affect their credit score.” The word budget is like the word diet, and “people hate those two words,” said Mark Edwards, a lecturer at California Lutheran University who has a Master in Business Administration Degree and is a certified financial planner. “Everybody wants to say that I’m on one but nobody wants to follow the rules.” As far as paying down debt is concerned, “you should be paying that down on a month-to-month basis,” Edwards said, adding that this challenge doesn’t only affect the lower income. “I know people who make a half a million dollars a year who still have problems budgeting. It’s a behavioral issue.”

Pattie Braga of the Ventura County Credit Union, who has worked in the financial sector for nearly 20 years, said most people that come to her that are in crisis are usually reacting to long-term or systemic issues, such as divorce, loss of a home, or a health issue affecting their ability to work. “When they are counting on a large amount of money, whether it be a reimbursement, tax refund or inheritance, not getting those funds can be devastating,” Braga said. Tax returns in themselves aren’t a problem that contributes to a person’s financial wellbeing, she noted. Rather, “the bigger issue is knowing how to live within your means and having an emergency savings for unexpected bills.” Braga added that when it comes to improving a person’s credit score, “there is always hope. With proper planning and patience, credit scores can improve, thus saving consumer’s money with lower interest rates from lenders.”

sions you’re going to make during and after the divorce process, especially when it comes to your living arrangement.” For instance, a good score in the 700s and up will make the decision-making on refinancing your current home or purchasing a new one easier. “When it comes to renting or leasing, I have heard that potential landlords don’t necessarily look at credit scores, but they scrutinize your credit history and look for records of evictions,” Reverente said. Your credit score also plays a role in the purchase or lease of vehicles. “Say you only have one vehicle during your split and your ex is going to take it, you might not be eligible for a car loan with a low credit score, or you might get slapped with a really high interest rate, or you might have to pay cash,” Reverente said.

ROCK BOTTOM

A credit score is more than just a three-digit number — as these digits can have a long-lasting impact on a person’s buying power. A good credit score can result in perks like lower interest rates when it comes to loans, while a bad credit score can raise these rates significantly, costing a person even more money. A common misconception is that it takes a significant amount of time to rebuild your credit, said Braga. “The reality is that with proper planning and efforts, a credit score can signifiMIRA REVERENTE cantly rebound in 9 to 18 months,” she said. “Unfortunately, most people don’t know how to rebuild their credit.” As the Senior Community Development Officer for Ventura County Credit Union, Braga is focused on educating members and the community at large of all ages on personal finances, budgeting, identity theft, building good credit and repairing credit. Another misconception is that minor credit score changes make more of an impact than they actually do, she noted. “The reality is that credit scores are fluid — they are always changing, based on when activity is reported to the three credit bureaus,” Braga said. It is best to pull your credit report through each of the credit bureaus at least every 12 months, she advised, and to do so, go to www.annualcreditreport.com. “Because you are allowed a free report from each bureau, I suggest you pull one every four months, this way you are continuously monitoring your credit information and checking for accuracies,” Braga said.

Married for 16 years, Mira Reverente thought she hit “the proverbial rock bottom of life” when she was faced with divorce, and had to look for practical and realistic tips for dealing with finances. “I was confused, overwhelmed, very sad and just fearful of the future,” recalled Reverente, a resident of Newbury Park who has a daughter and son. “I was married for 16 years and just couldn’t imagine myself alone and fending for myself and my kids.” A journalist PATTIE BRAGA by profession, she reached out to friends and family to pick their brains on practical money matters, network and let everyone know she was in need of more projects. “I was willing to do anything and I did — I drove for Uber and Lyft, and I also delivered flowers on Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day,” she said. “I also took on a couple of student roommates. I accepted every writing and editing project that came my way.” Post-divorce in 2015, she co-wrote a book, Suddenly Single Women’s Guide to Finances: From Struggling to Secure Single, at Any Age. “I was looking for practical and realistic tips for dealing with finances and didn’t find any that suited my needs or that was specifically geared towards women,” recalled Reverente, now 47. “So I thought, why not write one?” In her book, she tackles common personal economic issues such as getting your financial house in order, managing bills and juggling jobs. These are interspersed with Reverente’s personal experiences as well as accounts from friends and some experts. There are also chapters on making decisions, such as selling versus renting versus getting a roommate versus relocating and opting for a fresh start. “Finally, I touch on moving forward and reinventing yourself, mostly practical tips on picking up the pieces and healing by working on yourself first,” Reverente said. While her book doesn’t delve specifically on credit scores that much, “I will say this — it plays a huge part in some of the deci-

MORE THAN A THREE-DIGIT NUMBER

HOW DO CREDIT SCORES WORK?

A credit score is just a number, Braga said, and it is used as a tool for lenders to gauge your “credit worthiness.” The Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) is the scoring company used by the three credit bureaus, Transunion, Equifax and Experian. FICO scores vary by each credit bureau based on the information each bureau receives. “This is why you see changes in your score between Tran-

sunion, Equifax and Experian,” Braga said. A FICO score is determined by five factors: payment history, amounts owed, length of credit history, types of credit cards used and new credit. “Each of the five factors are weighted differently,” Braga explained. “Information comes in daily about consumers — payments made, balance changes, new credit established or loans paid off/closed. Each of these actions adjust your credit score up and down. Usually these adjustments are minimal and make little to no impact on one’s ability to get credit.”

GOOD VS. BAD CREDIT

Excellent credit, or what lenders refer to as “A+” credit, is usually 730 and above, “although each lender sets their own guidelines on that,” Braga said. The better credit score you have, the lower interest rate you will pay. “For example, a good credit score can be the difference between paying $1,000 in interest on an auto loan, to paying $4,000 or more on an auto loan,” Braga said. A myth surrounding credit scores is that you can make a bad credit history go away by paying someone to repair it, said Raymond Freeman, a former lawyer and commercial banker who has a degree in economics. “You are always stuck with a bad credit history unless you can challenge any mistakes you find, and are prepared to support your position with facts,” Freeman said. A credit score below 500 is usually considered bad, he said, and 300 is the worst usually. “A bad score is disastrous,” said Freeman, noting that commercial landlords, for instance, refuse to rent to those with bad credit scores. Additionally, “loans become harder to get and rates of interest go up for persons with bad credit scores.” In other advice, Freeman said “do not file bankruptcy. It will haunt you for 7 to 10 years.” As with good credit, poor credit scores are determined by lenders, Braga said. “Some see poor credit as anything below 620; some set the bar lower at 580,” she noted. “With poor credit, the interest rate you pay on loans is usually much higher than the advertised rates. There are lenders out there that will loan to almost anyone, regardless of their score. But the rates are usually astronomically high, as the risk for the lender is very high.” The absolute worst thing you can do to your credit score is to not pay your bills, Braga further emphasized. “Whether it’s a 30-day late payment, a 60-day late payment, a collection account or a repossession or foreclosure, you have to pay your bills to have solid credit,” she said.

IS THERE ANY WAY OUT OF BAD CREDIT?

If you feel there is no way to lift yourself out from having poor credit, “you’re wrong,” Braga emphasized, noting that reestablishing credit is easy to do if you know the right steps to take. “It’s not the poor credit score that holds people back — it’s the embarrassment, the shame, and/or the lack of knowledge on how to rebuild a credit score that holds people back,” she said. “Get over it and talk to someone.” Your financial institution should be your first stop in the journey to improving your credit score. “They should offer resources to help you and have products and services that fit your needs,” Braga said. “Compare institutions. You’d be surprised in the differences in interest rates and fees charged between various banks and credit unions. Knowledge is power when it comes to your credit score and ultimately what interest rates you pay. Continue to educate yourself and ask questions.” F

All fired up A Muse of Fire debuts in Ojai by Emily Dodi

new theater company is rising in Ojai. A Muse of Fire puts a “fresh spin on the classics” by creating “contemporary and classical theater with socially relevant themes.” Soon to launch its inaugural season, the company was founded by theater, film, fine art and educational professionals, led by Susan Kelejian and including Jaye Hersh, Jolene Harrington, Vonder Gray and Susanna Joslyn Johansen. The idea for A Muse of Fire was forged during the aftermath of the Thomas Fire, when Kelejian was reminded of “how theater can be transformative.” Emboldened, Kelejian thought to herself, “screw the destructive Thomas Fire.” She and her co-founders partnered with the Nordhoff Parent Association and drama department and set about to form a company that would elevate theater and connect people. Its name was inspired by a line in Shakespeare’s Henry V: O, for a Muse of fire, that would ascend The brightest heaven of invention, A kingdom for a stage, princes to act. And monarchs to behold the swelling scene! At the heart of A Muse of Fire’s mission is to raise the bar of dramatic training in the area — from developing an actor’s craft to teaching basic theater skills and etiquette. It would also give the community a forum in which to come together to experience and discuss important works that address big themes. During this same time, Kelejian began to contemplate “the third act” of her life. “We have a finite amount of chi,” observes Kelejian, before adding matter-of-factly, “I have one more push.” The “push” to create something meaningful for the community is fueled by her years as an awardwinning playwright, director and actor. “I’ve done it all,” she muses. That includes managing the Ojai Shakespeare Festival and being the artistic director of Hourglass Figures and

The Educational Theatre Foundation is accepting applications for grants from middle and high schools in California that suffered damage to their theatre programs from wildfires in 2018. Affected schools are eligible to apply for the MTI California Fire Relief Grants, funded by licensing agency Music Theatre International. Ten grants of $1,000 each are available. Applications due March 15; recipients will be notified and announced by mid-April. To apply, visit schooltheatre. academicworks.com/opportunities/703.

ARTS FESTIVAL LEGACY SCHOLARSHIPS

The Arts Council of Conejo Valley is currently accepting applications for the Thousand Oaks Arts Festival Legacy Scholarship program to help support emerging youth artists with their college expenses. Arts students who legally reside in the Conejo Valley and are high school seniors or college underclassmen are eligible. Categories include visual art, dance, voice and instrumental. Applicants must submit an example of their visual art or performance, an arts teacher recommendation and a short personal statement. No live auditions will be held, but YouTube videos of work will be accepted. Deadline for entry is March 15. For rules, application and more information, visit conejoarts.org or email info@conejoarts.org.

ART TALES STILL OPEN

Equine Dell Arte theater companies. One of her most recent projects was performing in Macbeth at the Ojai Art Center Theater. The fact that the majority of the cast was over 50 was not lost on Kelejian. It made clear the area’s need for a multi-generational theater company that would provide solid conservatory training. A Muse of Fire empowers young actors to learn from veteran actors. “This is a master!” Kelejian says, referring to any one of the mature actors in the company. In return, older actors get to see the art of theater through fresh eyes. The goal is to “connect through theater,” explains Kelejian. It all comes down to “what we can learn from our past to create a better future, by coming together in the now.” A Muse of Fire’s inaugural performance, or “coming out party,” as Kelejian calls it, is a staged reading of her own The Tragedy of Boudicca. It will take place at Topa Mountain Winery on Friday, March 29. Madrigali, an Ojai-based a cappella singing group that specializes in Renaissance and medieval music, will also perform. The event is free and will feature a Q&A session. “To create a dialogue after the performance, that’s the most fun,” says Kelejian. Other events are planned in the summer and fall as well. During the summer, A Muse of Fire will hold a threeweek conservatory for teens, led by theater professionals and culminating in a weekend showcase. (More information on the conservatory is available on the company’s Facebook page.) And in November, the company will perform a staged reading of Kelejian’s reworking of Chekhov’s Three Sisters, which she sets in a retirement home. Kelejian explains that Three Sisters/Homecoming (working title) blends “what is real and what is in the mind,” as it takes on the themes of “aging and looking for life’s purpose.” Kelejian and A Muse of Fire certainly have found theirs. ✦ For more information about A Muse of Fire Theater Company, visit amusetheaterco.com or the company’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/A-Muse-of-Fire-Theater-Company-1405349419595373/.

“My greatest muse is music itself” La Santa Cecilia brings a message of love, hope and inspiration to Oxnard by David Cotner

oping against hope. That’s something that always sounds so counterintuitive — and, frankly, counter-productive — but sometimes you take any port in a storm to weather the hopelessness of life. La Santa Cecilia, the band, named for the patron saint of music, that began life by busking on Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles and went on to win a Grammy, knows how powerful hope can be when intertwined with music. Bassist Alex Bendaña, accordionist and requinto player Jose “Pepe” Carlos, singer La Marisoul and percussionist Miguel “Oso” Ramirez are hard at work on a new album, selections of which will be performed on Friday night at the Oxnard Performing Arts and Convention Center. In discussion: Miguel Ramirez, La Santa Cecilia percussionist extraordinaire.

Cotner: I wanted to discuss the concept of hope as it stands with La Santa Cecilia now in these times. Miguel Ramirez: The concept of hope is what we’re going to be bringing into our show in Oxnard. We ourselves have been through a

12 —

lot of things in less than a few months; three of the band members, including myself, lost our fathers within the past year. Our singer just lost her father last week. We’ve been so lucky and blessed to have gone through so many amazing, beautiful things, but at the same time, we’ve experienced a lot of loss and, at our ages . . . well, I’m about to turn 40 this year and hope is definitely something that’s essential in my mind these days. Whether it be personal, political, emotional or spiritual, it’s the most important thing we have going for ourselves in the band right now. We have to really stay focused in these times that are very difficult, very depressing and challenging for someone, even of someone of sound mind! Hope is very difficult to maintain — but the message of our music is always about hope, love, and trying to inspire one another to maintain those kinds of principles and keep them alive.

Is there anything in particular that you as a player look to that inspires hope within you? My greatest muse is music itself. The world can fluctuate and go crazy at moments, but I’m always so inspired by the power of music. How you can change someone’s life through music. I love drums and percussion, I love the significance of drums throughout the world and I love what music means to people. It’s one of the

most uplifting, direct energies that exists in the world. The world, for me, will forever always be about music.

Where do you think you’d be if you didn’t have the band? I’d still be playing music, for sure! [Laughs] If I didn’t have the band, I’d have probably gone into education and studied to become a professor or something. We started about 12 years ago in August, at my house in Alhambra. I still live in the city. We all played in other band situations around Los Angeles.

As the band profile increases, do you think you get audiences that are more invested in the music? We had some of the most amazing audiences when we first started — people that were in our faces with enthusiasm, and not always at a regular concert venue; sometimes it was at a bar or whatever. We played the Hollywood Bowl a couple of years ago, and that was one of the most amazing concerts that I’ve been a part of, period. Everyone who came out was so proud of the band. When we played, we were in the middle of Mon Laferte and Café Tacvba and it was magical. The audience was just going off. Sometimes you play places where people are into it and get nuts. It always varies.

Does the current political climate do something to the way the audience perceives you? Luckily, our audiences have always been very diverse. We’ve had some experiences where we could tell that the audiences are a little bit [more] uptight than others, and maybe not as liberal per se. But these times we’re in

affect everybody. It even affects the most liberal, happy, joyful kind of person in everyday life. I think that now when some people go to our shows, it’s more of an escape, to where their humanity is still intact and they can feel joy and sadness, they can dance and jump up and down or whatever. We’ve had situations where there are certain songs, like “El Hielo,” that we present with which people have tried to pin us down as a political band. But our main interest is the spiritual uplifting of the crowd and our fans. We offer a different solution.

Experiencing all that loss recently makes your next album both personal and universal. We have free rein with what we’ll do next. It’s really exciting because now, coming off our last album of covers addressing our lineage of our families and our culture, now we’re going to address these experiences that everyone has.

What is one thing that gives you, personally, the most hope now? People coming together. On a larger scale throughout the world, and also in my personal life, seeing how fortunate I am to have amazing friends, an amazing band, an amazing girlfriend — all those things, people being there, being together and having each other’s backs. ✦ La Santa Cecilia appears on Friday, March 8, at 8 p.m. at the Oxnard Performing Arts and Convention Center, 800 Hobson Way, Oxnard.

wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court: She gets mugged in the subway and suffers blunt force trauma (romcom fans will recognize the “transformation through bludgeoning” trope from movies such as I Feel Pretty and What Men Want). That knock on the head is always good for waking to another life, another world, another time. Hijinks ensue. For Isn’t It Romantic, it means Natalie regains consciousness in a squeaky-clean, lilac-smelling New York, with spacious, meticulously designed apartments overlooking Central Park and nary a person even remotely in need of a bath. Suddenly, a hunky real-estate magnate (Liam Hemsworth) cannot resist her; the disheveled, grumpy neighbor she tolerates is, in a flash, a finger-snapping gay stereotype and close confidant; her work assistant, Whitney (Betty Gilpin), is now an iron-jawed, on-the-job competitor; and Josh, who once mooned over her, is engaged to a stunning model (Priyanka Chopra). Imagine everything you’ve seen Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, Meg Ryan or Renée Zellweger go through, getting sent-up with a big wink, a gentle nod and a tongue planted so firmly in cheek, they’d need a surgeon to get it out. In one homage to a romcom staple (a day rubbing elbows with the wealthy), Wilson turns up at a super-posh Hamptons estate, observing, “These lobsters are big as cats and tender as marshmallows!” Isn’t It Romantic may be the brainchild of romantic comedy writers, who perform wrestlemania moves with their own stock-in-trade, but the parody is a means to a desired, familiar end. Wilson’s Natalie, the antithesis of the usual romcom heroine, finds happiness once her romp through a sanitized Big Apple is done. And it’s not a spoiler to say there’s a couple of Bollywood-style production numbers to further rib the genre for its more mawkish tendencies. In film, there’s nothing wrong with biting the hand that feeds it, so long as it’s done with love. Before you gear up for this spring’s superheroes and serious, artistic efforts, why not have a good-natured laugh or two? Isn’t It Romantic delivers better than many of the movies it spoofs. ♦

collection of islands. I was seduced by these amalgamations, and found myself longing for them well after I ventured back to the states. The only issue was that, for as many other Asian food factions that are readily accessible, Indonesian seems to be mostly unaccounted for. So one can imagine the excitement I felt when local beer ambassador Topa Topa Brewing decided to couple with Santa Barbara staple Sama Sama for a downtown Ojai location. Situated on the corner of Ojai Avenue and Montgomery Street, the new headquarters for hops is as buzzing as the patrons who pack in to the brilliantly designed open floor plan. Settling on an indoor/outdoor layout, the roll-up garage door front walls invite sun or shade options, depending on what customers are in the mood for. As well, those familiar with Topa Topa’s flagship brewery/taproom in Ventura (or the other location in Santa Barbara) will be relieved to know that the new digs offer the same bountiful variety of beer. The inclusion of Sama Sama, however — which has a cleverly similar name structure — is where the Ojai location stands apart from its predecessors, incorporating flavor pairings of food and drink. I began my experience by ordering the well-known Chief’s Peak IPA, which was serendipitously accompanied by a view of the actual Chief’s Peak mountain overlooking the idyllic valley town. The bright overtones of

Signature: __________________________

the IPA called for a dish of similar personality, so I chose to start with the crispy Brussels sprouts and the “Crack” Wings. The former had an initial burst of sweet due to the pieces of dates and caramel fish sauce, though that sentiment was balanced out quickly via the pleasantly sour pickled onions and ribbons of fresh mint. Toasted almonds added a hearty texture to complete the dish. The tandoori-glazed free-range wings had a similar flavor introduction of sweet, but rapidly shifted to reflect the spicy pepper presence. The inclusion of fresh cilantro, micro greens and a lime wedge amplified the authenticity of Indonesian flair. Finishing both plates and my beer simultaneously, I decided to branch out and ordered a Saison, which was both smooth and velvety. Aiming to match the richness of the beer, I ordered the crispy rice salad and the ever popular chicken and waffles. I find crispy rice to be delicious when executed correctly, which is not as common as one may think. Thankfully this was the case here, as the rice retained enough crunch without a crackingof-crowns effect. Additionally, the salad boasted pork sausage, pickled cucumbers, and a medley of fresh herbs and was topped off with a fried egg, which is a staple supplement to many Indonesian meals. The chicken and waffles, while being a trendy menu offering, was intriguing due to the Asian-fusion spin. This was most present on the seasoned coating of the crispy chicken thigh, which was rich and juicy. The waffle was adequately standard, with the exception of the ginger butter, which I couldn’t slather on enough of. It was the highlight of the dish for my palate. In addition, several other menu items looked first rate, such as the pork spare ribs, catfish po’ boy and pork sausage bahn mi. Seasonal specials are also available for those looking to adventurously stray from the ordinary. Topa Topa also offers an eclectic variety of live music throughout the week, in addition to some righteous swag. It is a family-friendly environment as well, which only enhances the vibe of casual comfort. ♦

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

Genius inventor Thomas Edison rebelled against sleep, which he regarded as wasteful. He tried to limit his time in bed to four hours per night so he would have more time to work during his waking hours. Genius scientist Albert Einstein had a different approach. He preferred ten hours of sleep per night, and liked to steal naps during the day, too. In my astrological opinion, Aries, you’re in a phase when it makes more sense to imitate Einstein than Edison. Important learning and transformation are happening in your dreams. Give your nightly adventures maximum opportunity to work their magic in your behalf.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

The Danish flag has a red background emblazoned with an asymmetrical white cross. It was a national symbol of power as early as the fourteenth century, and may have first emerged during a critical military struggle that established the Danish empire in 1219. No other country in the world has a flag with such an ancient origin. But if Denmark’s Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, who’s a Taurus, came to me and asked me for advice, I would urge him to break with custom and design a new flag—maybe something with a spiral rainbow or a psychedelic tree. I’ll suggest an even more expansive idea to you, Taurus: create fresh traditions in every area of your life!

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

On June 7, 1988, Gemini musician Bob Dylan launched what has come to be known as the Never Ending Tour. It’s still going. In the past 30+ years, he has performed almost 3,000 shows on every continent except Antarctica. In 2018 alone, at the age of 77, he did 84 gigs. He’s living proof that not every Gemini is flaky and averse to commitment. Even if you yourself have flirted with flightiness in the past,

by rob brezsny

I doubt you will do so in the next five weeks. On the contrary. I expect you’ll be a paragon of persistence, doggedness, and stamina.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

The otters at a marine park in Miura City, Japan are friendly to human visitors. There are holes in the glass walls of their enclosures through which they reach out to shake people’s hands with their webbed paws. I think you need experiences akin to that in the coming weeks. Your mental and spiritual health will thrive to the degree that you seek closer contact with animals. It’s a favorable time to nurture your instinctual intelligence and absorb influences from the natural world. For extra credit, tune in to and celebrate your own animal qualities.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Between 1977 and 1992, civil war raged in Mozambique. Combatants planted thousands of land mines that have remained dangerous long after the conflict ended. In recent years, a new ally has emerged in the quest to address the problem: rats that are trained to find the hidden explosives so that human colleagues can defuse them. The expert sniffers don’t weigh enough to detonate the mines, so they’re ideal to play the role of saviors. I foresee a metaphorically comparable development in your future, Leo. You’ll get help and support from a surprising or seemingly unlikely source.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Imagine a stairway that leads nowhere; as you ascend, you realize that at the top is not a door or a hallway, but a wall. I suspect that lately you may have been dealing with a metaphorical version of an anomaly like this. But I also predict that in the coming weeks some magic will transpire that will change everything. It’s like you’ll find a button on the wall that when pushed opens a previously

imperceptible door. Somehow, you’ll gain entrance through an apparent obstruction.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Not all of the classic works of great literature are entertaining. According to one survey of editors, writers, and librarians, Goethe’s Faust, Melville’s Moby Dick, and Cervantes’ Don Quixote are among the most boring masterpieces ever written. But most experts agree that they’re still valuable to read. In that spirit, and in accordance with astrological omens, I urge you to commune with other dull but meaningful things. Seek out low-key but rich offerings. Be aware that unexciting people and situations may offer clues and catalysts that you need.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Many of you Scorpios regard secrecy as a skill worth cultivating. It serves your urge to gather and manage power. You’re aware that information is a valuable commodity, so you guard it carefully and share it sparingly. This predilection sometimes makes you seem understated, even shy. Your hesitancy to express too much of your knowledge and feelings may influence people to underestimate the intensity that seethes within you. Having said all that, I’ll now predict that you’ll show the world who you are with more dazzle and flamboyance in the coming weeks. It’ll be interesting to see how you do that as you also try to heed your rule that information is power.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Sagittarian actress and producer Deborra-Lee Furness has been married to megastar actor Hugh Jackman for 23 years. Their wedding rings are inscribed with a motto that blends Sanskrit and English, “Om paramar to the mainamar.” Hugh and Deborah-Lee say it means “we dedicate our union to a greater source.” In resonance with current

astrological omens, I invite you to engage in a similar gesture with an important person in your life. Now is a marvelous time to deepen and sanctify your relationship by pledging yourselves to a higher purpose or beautiful collaboration or sublime mutual quest.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

In 1997, a supercomputer named Deep Blue won six chess matches against Chess Grand Master Gary Kasparov. In 2016, an Artificial Intelligence called AlphaGo squared off against human champion Lee Sodol in a best-of-five series of the Chinese board game Go. AlphaGo crushed Sodol, four games to one. But there is at least one cerebral game in which human intelligence still reigns supreme: the card game known as bridge. No AI has as yet beat the best bridge players. I bring this to your attention, Capricorn, because I am sure that in the coming weeks, no AI could out-think and out-strategize you as you navigate your way through life’s tests and challenges. You’ll be smarter than ever. P.S.: I’m guessing your acumen will be extra soulful, as well.

AQUARIUS

Homework: Think of the last person you cursed, if only with a hateful thought if not an actual spell. Now send them a free-hearted blessing.

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

At regular intervals, a hot stream of boiling water shoots up out of the earth and into the sky in Wyoming’s Yellowstone National Park. It’s a geyser called Old Faithful. The steamy surge can reach a height of 185 feet and last for five minutes. When white settlers first discovered this natural phenomenon in the nineteenth century, some of them used it as a laundry. Between blasts, they’d place their dirty clothes in Old Faithful’s aperture. When the scalding flare erupted, it provided all the necessary cleansing. I’d love to see you attempt a metaphorically similar feat, Aquarius: harness a natural force for a practical purpose, or a primal power for an earthy task.

PISCES

painting Mona Lisa? Many scholars think it was Italian noblewoman Lisa del Giocondo. Leonardo wanted her to feel comfortable during the long hours she sat for him, so he hired musicians to play for her and people with mellifluous voices to read her stories. He built a musical fountain for her to gaze upon and a white Persian cat to cuddle. If it were within my power, I would arrange something similar for you in the coming weeks. Why? Because I’d love to see you be calmed and soothed for a concentrated period of time; to feel perfectly at ease, at home in the world, surrounded by beautiful influences you love. In my opinion, you need and deserve such a break from the everyday frenzy.

and Election to Sell to be executed. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the County where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (916)9390772 or visit this Internet Web http://search.nationwideposting. com/propertySearchTerms.aspx, using the file number assigned to this case CA1700277147 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 Mortgagee’s attorney.

YOU ARE FURTHER ADVISED as follows: At the hearing the Court must choose and implement one of the following permanent plans for the child: adoption, guardianship, or long term foster care. Parental rights may be terminated at this hearing. On 05/08/2019, the Human Services Agency will recommend termination of parental rights. The child may be ordered placed in long term foster care, subject to the regular review of the Juvenile Court; or, a legal guardian may be appointed for the child and letters of guardianship be issued; or, adoption may be identified as the permanent placement goal and the Court may order that efforts be made to locate an appropriate adoptive family for the child for a period not to exceed 180 days and set the matter for further review; or, parental rights may be terminated. You are entitled to be present at the hearing with your attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, you are entitled to have the Court appoint counsel for you. A thirty-day continuance may be granted if necessary for counsel to prepare the case. At all termination proceedings, the Court shall consider the wishes of the child and shall act in the best interest of the child. Any order of the Court permanently terminating parental rights under this section shall be conclusive and binding upon the minor person, upon the parent or parents, and upon all other persons who have been served with citation by publication or otherwise. After making such an order, the Court shall have no power to set aside, change, or modify it, but this shall not be construed to limit the rights to appeal the order. If the Court, by order or judgment, declares the child free from the custody and control of both parents, or one parent if the other no

longer has custody and control, the Court shall, at the same time, order the child referred to the licensed County adoption agency for adoptive placement by that agency.

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.

W H Y H AV E N ’ T P E O P L E W I T H S H O U L D E R PA I N B E E N T O L D T H E S E FA C T S ? If you’re over the age of 30 and have rotator cuff problems, frozen shoulder,

or arthritis, there is hope.

One local doctor is helping patients increase shoulder strength, improve motion, and eliminate shoulder pain. Finally, you can be pain free again – even if you’ve got the most excruciating shoulder pain you have ever felt. Does your shoulder pain build up when you move it wrong or is it a sudden sharp pain shooting from your neck into your arm? Do you have difficulty just washing your hair or even scratching your back? Have you had to give up golf because of your shoulder pain? Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally, but physically feeling held back from life because your shoulder hurts and the pain just won’t go away! My name is Dr. Ruby Kevala, D.C., D.A.C.N.B. I’m a board-certified chiropractic neurologist and the owner of Kevala Chiropractic. Over the years, since we’ve opened the doors, we’ve seen hundreds of people with shoulder pain, frozen shoulder and rotator cuff problems leave the office pain free.

Do You Have Any of the Following Conditions? • Frozen shoulder – one of the worst maladies known to man (and women!) • Adhesive capsulitis • Rotator cuff injuries • Arthritis

• Bursitis • Tendonitis • Muscle weakness • Sharp, radiating pain • Numbness and tingling

Shoulder Pain Is Not Just ‘Old Age’

No question… if you are having shoulder pain then something is wrong. It’s not normal aging to hurt all the time. Pain in your shoulder isn’t just a ‘sign of old age’, if that was true all 360 joints in your body would hurt since your whole body is the same age. Pain is your body’s warning sign telling you something is wrong. Finding the problem and fixing it has got to be a top priority!

P.S. Why Suffer With Years Of Misery?

If you are suffering from any of these problems, this shoulder treatment protocol may completely eliminate all the pain. Finally, You Have An Option Other Than Drugs or Surgery

New research in a treatment called low level laser therapy, or Cold Laser, is having a profound effect on patients suffering with pain. Unlike the cutting type of laser seen in movies and used in medical procedures, Cold Laser penetrates the surface of the skin with no heating effect or damage. Cold Laser therapy has been tested for 40 years, had over 2000 papers published on it, and been shown to aid in damaged tissue regeneration, decrease inflammation, relieve pain and boost the immune system. This means that there is a good chance Cold Laser therapy could be your pain solution, allowing you to live a more active lifestyle. Professional athletes like Tiger Woods and team members of the New England Patriots rely upon cold laser therapy to treat the sports-related injuries. These guys use the Cold Laser for one reason only….

It Promotes Rapid Healing Of The Injured Tissues.

Before the FDA would clear Cold Laser for human use, they wanted to see proof that it worked. This led to two landmark studies. The first study showed that patients who had Cold Laser therapy had 53% better improvement than those who had a placebo. The second study showed patients who used the laser therapy had less pain and more range of motion days after treatment. If Cold Laser can help these patients, it can help you too.

Pain Pills Could Be Making Your Shoulder Worse

Why wait and let it get so bad surgery becomes your only option? That’s no way to live. Call 805-9184810 today. I may be able to help you live a normal, pain-free life again.

Here Are Some Of Our Patients’ Results...

“I was referred to Dr. Kevala last year and it’s the best referral I’ve ever received. She is patient, kind and determined to heal you. I have recently gone back to her after months of being in physical therapy for a “frozen” shoulder. In one visit she was able to help me move my arm/shoulder in a position I haven’t been able to do for almost a year!! She’s the best.” -B.C., in Ventura “I became a client of Dr. Kevala’s after trying a couple of other sports doctors first. I dislocated my shoulder, for the second time, several months ago. Dr. Kevala started me on the cold laser machine and hands on therapy. Within a few months, all of the pain in my shoulder was gone and I have complete flexibility again. Dr. Kevala and her staff have been very professional, courteous and fun to be around. Thanks again for all your help!” – F.S., Ventura

If you’re taking pain pills for your shoulder, you are likely making your problem worse. Pain pills, even over-thecounter medications, just mask the problem, and don’t fix your shoulder. Pain is your body’s warning sign telling you to take it easy. If you mask the pain with pills, you are likely to do things that can prevent your shoulder from healing – maybe even damage it further. Not to mention many of the pain medications available are quite addicting and have drastic side effects.

Why Surgery May Not Be Your Only Option

We certainly can’t say for sure until I meet you, but surgery may not be your only option. If you go through with surgery, you’re looking at time off from work, weeks to months of rehab, and quite a bit of expense. Why not exhaust all natural, non-invasive options before considering more drastic measures?
