Concert band a family affair

by Samie Hartley Staff Writer

The Brentwood Concert Band resumed rehearsals this week after a brief summer hiatus, and as always, it’s looking for recruits.

Don’t expect any from the Galbraith family, though; they’re already doing their part.

Sharaya Galbraith, who plays percussion, her grandfather Clay (bass clarinet) and her uncle Mark (French horn) all play in the band. Sharaya joined the band in 2005 when she was in the eighth grade, and now that she’s graduated from high school, she plans to pursue a music degree in college.

“It’s a great opportunity to get in some more practice so that you can get better at your craft,” said Galbraith, who plays percussion. “The Brentwood Concert Band provides a welcoming atmosphere for musicians to grow and improve their skills. It’s really fun, and there’s such a relaxing environment because we’re all here for our love of music.”

Director Sue Stuart said it’s exciting for three generations from one family to play in the band, and looks forward to welcoming more people into the concert band family this year.

Sharaya Galbraith, her grandfather Clay Galbraith and uncle Mark Galbraith represent three generations of their family, all playing in the Brentwood Concert Band.

The band is looking for more instrumentalists to join in.

“We could really use more percussion players right now,” Stuart said. “We’re always thankful for anyone who has the time to come join us. Not everyone can make it to rehearsals every week since people are busy, but that’s understandable. It’s fine if you can’t make it to each practice. It’s just nice

to have something that people can be a part of. Sharing music with the community is a beautiful thing.”

East County getting Red Cross ready

by Ruth Roberts Staff Writer We’ve heard the predictions.

According to the U. S. Geological Survey, a 6.7-magnitude earthquake – or greater – will strike the Bay Area in the next 30 years. If we don’t already have an emergency plan in place, we’d better get one.

“How many times do people hear that there is a 90-percent probability that the Big One is coming?” said Carole Crawford, disaster manager for the Red Cross Bay Area. “But unless they feel a rumbling or see a fire, most of us don’t pay attention. That’s the reality.”

In East County, where the population is a mixed bag of rural and urban dwellers, the reality of disaster planning is different than in the rest of Contra Costa. “East

what happens when people aren’t prepared.”

The good news is that East County is fairly well situated.

Crawford said that the Red Cross has a statement of understanding with nearly every school district in East County to use their facilities as emergency shelters in the event of a disaster.

In Byron, St. Anne Catholic Church was built two years ago with emergency shelter features such as showers and a service kitchen. “What has transpired is that the facility (St. Anne) is what they call a stand-alone,” said Tony Hicks, business facilities manager for St. Anne. “Meaning that we have our own water, showers and kitchen. As a result, we were contacted by the county and the Red Cross and entered into a statement of understanding. They (Red Cross) have come out and provided training to our people for emergency preparedness in case of a disaster, and at this point see Red Cross page 22A

Six hurt in boating accident Two drown in separate incidents

by Ruth Roberts Staff Writer A collision near Discovery Bay between a ski boat and fishing boat sent six people to the hospital over the weekend, none with life-threatening injuries.

The accident occurred on Saturday, Aug. 1 at 11:20 a.m. on Old River between Indian Slough and Old River Bridge, according to Jimmy Lee, director of public affairs for the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office.

Three of the six people injured on the ski boat were ejected into the water, said Lee. The two people on the fishing boat refused treatment.

The Coast Guard and Marine Patrol transported the injured to hospitals in Tracy and Stockton.

The cause of the accident is under investigation, and those with information should contact the Marine Patrol at 925-427-8507.

In an unrelated incident, the Contra Costa Coroner’s Office has

confirmed drowning as the cause of death for two men following a boating accident last week near Discovery Bay. Stockton resident Key Calvan Soeur, 37, and Songkram Sangcharoon, 35, of Antelope died while on a fishing trip in Werner Dredger Cut. According to Lee, Sheriff’s deputies responded to a call around 12:50 a.m. on July 31 from a witness who had spotted Sangcharoon splashing in the water and yelling for help. The U.S. Coast Guard Station Rio Vista and Air Station San Francisco, along with the Sheriff’s Office helicopter STARR 1, sped to the scene to locate Sangcharoon. A capsized 11-foot fishing boat was found near the scene and divers recovered the body of Sangcharoon around 7:30 a.m.

A few hours later, the Marine Patrol and Volunteer Services Unit returned to the scene, following inquiries that led deputies to believe a second person might have been on board the capsized boat. Divers recovered the body of Soeur at 5:40 p.m. approximately 150 feet from where Sangcharoon was found.

An investigation into the cause of the accident is still underway.

Those with information should call the Sheriff’s Office Marine Patrol.

Lions install new officers An installation ceremony was held last month at DeLuna Ranch for incoming officers of the Brentwood Lions Club.

Richard Adams, who has been an active member of the Brentwood Lions for the past five years, was installed as club president for 2009-10. “I’m looking forward to leading various projects and continuing the Lion Club’s commitment to serving the community,” said Adams.

Rene DeLuna was installed as club secretary, and Rosanna Sezar and Fred Ginsler as the club’s vice presidents.

Since the club’s chartering in 1929, Lions members have worked on a variety of projects in the local community, such as the Flea Market, CornFest and White Cane Day. Proceeds from fundraising events have gone to the Lions’ scholarship program, Youth in Government, Special Kids Day, Shepherd’s Gate, and eye exams and glasses for the needy. The club is currently working on its Eighth Year Celebration, to be held at the DeLuna Ranch Sept. 19.

The Brentwood Lions Club has 27 members and meets on the first and third Wednesdays of the month at 7 p.m. at Perko’s Café on Second Street in Brentwood.

Lions clubs identify needs within the community and work together to fulfill those needs. For more information or to get involved with the Brentwood Lions Club, call Michael Morgan at 925-513-

Services set for Roehm A celebration of life for longtime Brentwood resident Lenora Ravenna Roehm has been scheduled for this weekend in Byron.

Roehm died of a heart attack on July 30. She was 88.

A tireless worker for local charities and affectionately known as the Food Lady of East County, Roehm ran Brentwood’s Brown Bag food program and the Food Pantry at the Byron United Methodist Church, where she was a member for 45 years.

She was also an active member of the Delta Seniors and was named Brentwood’s Citizen of the Year in 1990.

Roehm was predeceased by her husband, George Roehm II, and daughter, Joan Roehm. She is survived by her children, Alberta Cates, Vernette Pato, Joyce Clark, George Roehm III and Adah Boone; nine grandchildren; 21 great-grandchildren; seven great-great-grandchildren; and 23 foster children.

The celebration of her life will be held Saturday, Aug. 8 at 1 p.m. in the Byron United Methodist Church, 14671 Byron Highway. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations in her honor be made to a food bank or a charity of your choice.

TALK ABOUT TOWN e sure not to mark your calendar: It’s time once again for what promises to be one of the most spectacular non-events of the year, the Antioch Rivertown Jamboree Phantom of the Delta, which is slated not to happen on Sept. 31.

“Invitations” recently sent out by the “Bored” of Directors point out that the event features “No wondering what to wear,” “No name tags you can’t read” and “No no-host cocktails” to name a few things in its favor. The invitation asks for $29.89 per person or $299.89 for an entire table, and concludes with “By skipping our event in exchange for a contribution you will be directly helping the Antioch Rivertown Jamboree defray the cost of doing business.” If you’d like to not go, do send a check payable to the Jamboree, 301 W. 10th St., Antioch CA, 94509.

Little Emma and the big picture The day started at 2:20 a.m. with the sensation of being ripped from a near-catatonic sleep by the 1,000-decibel screech of our phone, a sound clearly programmed into it by sadists. The call was from Chris and Jen, 474 miles south of us in San Diego, ready to head for the ON hospital. It was time: EADLINE Emma Lynn Lemyre would be arriving in this world a little earlier than planned.

I’ve always been a collector of details, believing that if you put enough of them RICK together, you get LEMYRE the big picture, and profound realizations crystallize before you. I was about to become a grandfather, so I figured that, over the course of the next few days, there were lots of details I’d be collecting. I was right.

First off, there was “packing,” or throwing various items into a suitcase while Cyndy and Stephanie did the same: Pants. Socks. Phone charger. Curved black plastic thing that I know nothing about but that somehow got packed in my bag.

Then: Jen’s mom, Susan, pulling up in front of the house, me jumping in behind the wheel and, with Cyn riding shotgun and Susan and Steph in back, rolling onto

D

I-5 about 3:45 a.m. Saturday, the perfect time to roll onto I-5.

Seeing “70” posted on the sides of the road, but rarely seeing the speedometer point to it, except on on-ramps and off-ramps.

The slowly brightening horizon to my left as we hurtled south, and the surge of energy that flows through me every time I witness dawn.

Rolling into a Bob Wilson Naval Hospital parking area whose only outlet was posted “Enter only,” wondering simultaneously how I was supposed to get out and who Bob Wilson was.

Seeing Chris and Jen, steady and ready.

Our group, seizing control of the only reclining chairs in the family waiting room.

Picking up Jen’s dad Roy at the airport, and on the way back to the hospital executing a risky yet masterful two-lane dash to an exit that I would have missed if not for the on-board navigation aid called “Jen’s dad Roy.” Watching families arrive, wait a while, get a new baby, and leave, one after another, as we occupied the recliners.

The calm, dead-serious look that occasionally came over Susan’s face that not only let anyone in the immediate vicinity know that it had been quite long enough between updates, thankyouverymuch, but was also felt several rooms away because

Cyndy’s knitting, knitting, knitting that not only produced socks, hats and blankets for the baby, but established a rhythmic pace which helped us all patiently endure.

Walking into a room and seeing

Emma for the first time, a nurse tucking a blanket snugly around her, eyes wide open, making the tiniest grunting noises as she was nudged about.

Jen arriving moments later, the crushing fatigue of a 20-hour labor unable to dim the joy glowing in her eyes.

Watching my son, the corpsman, wearing scrubs and discussing with doctors the merits of various antibiotics, and when tests I had never heard of were scheduled.

Watching Jen hold Emma, feeding Emma, combing Emma’s abundant hair with her fingers.

Steph, sitting brushed with light from the doorway of Jen’s softly lit room, holding and feeding her new niece.

Landing back at Chris and Jen’s apartment, where Steph gave up the couch to me, and Susan cleaned the Guinea pig cage I’d been asked to take care of.

The Father’s Day tour of the USS Nimitz – now deployed with Chris aboard – and seeing: the hatch where Chris keeps banging his head; the stenciled names of the five crewmembers, Chris’ friends, who died in a helicopter crash just weeks before; us accidentally tripping an alarm at the locked-up ship store (I blame Roy); and quickly leaving the area of the ship’s store.

Seen in Montana HOW TO GAIN A FEW EXTRA INSPECTION DAYS Last week I discussed how contingencies are removed, and told you the difference between the “active” and the “passive” method. To recap, for the passive method, when your deadline is up, you have removed your contingency, and with the active, you retain the contingency until you remove it in writing.

Most of the bank-owned listings will require the passive method of contingency removal, and they often only give the buyer 7-10 days. This can put a lot of pressure on the buyer, since it can take 3-7 days just to schedule an inspection.

There is a way to buy a few extra days on your inspection deadlines, and it all comes down to watching when the official “acceptance” date of the contract is. Most of the time, the listing agent will get a verbal acceptance of the buyer’s offer from the bank. Then there will be a bank addendum to the contract, along with some disclosures, that both buyer and seller need to sign. That process usually takes anywhere from 2-7 (or longer) days. I would argue (and I believe

that I have California contract law on my side) that the official date of “acceptance” is when the contract is ratified by all parties and copies are provided to both parties.

So here is my trick. I don’t wait until I get all copies signed to order the inspection(s). I do it as soon as we get the verbal acceptance. Usually by the time the inspector can get out there, the signed contracts are in. Now you are having the inspection performed within a few days of the official acceptance date, which gives you more time to review, get bids, and even order additional recommended inspections based on the first inspection. And if there is a delay in getting the contracts signed, just call up the inspector and re-schedule. If you tell them up front what you are doing, they are usually pretty accommodating.

Emma from page 6A Guinea pigs as everyone else headed south again to move Jen and Emma up to Antioch as Chris and the Nimitz deployed.

Being aware of the of fact that Christopher Immekus, Jen’s brother, was a much better choice than I for this trip south, given the fact that this former Marine’s broad shoulders and strong back were better suited to the task, and later discovering that his brawn concealed a remarkably gentle touch and playful nature with Emma.

Memories such as these piled high and deep as I awaited the profound realizations I thought would accompany them, yet none came – until I touched Emma’s foot. Pounding down a bottle, she seemed little aware that I was even there, holding her, marveling at her perfect fingers, the soft curve of her cheeks, her nose, her chin, and the way her tiny toes tightly gripped my finger. It was then that I knew that the big picture was little Emma herself, and it couldn’t be discovered in just the description of her family’s experience, her mother’s fortitude, or her father’s strength and sacrifice doing his duty to country. The myriad details I’d collected so far were but a tiny piece of the mosaic that Emma herself will create as she grows; Her arrival wasn’t a dénouement, it was a beginning.

Welcome to the world, Emma Lynn Lemyre. It’s a much-changed place since you’ve arrived and, one detail at a time, it’s sure to continue to grow more memorable for us all.

Trevor’s Weekly Mortgage Matters

By Trevor Frey

Housing and Economic Relief Act Aftermath The never consumer friendly bait-andswitch tactic previously implemented by non-ethical mortgage brokers is officially, and legally, a thing of the past. However, and unfortunately, this change does not come without a price to would be buyer’s in the form of a potentially lengthened loan process. The Mortgage Disclosure Improvement Act, or MDIA, was enacted as a rider to one of the many stimulus-related bills that have cleared congress earlier in the year, and, on May 8, 2009, the Federal Reserve Board issued a final ruling to begin enforcing changes in the Truth in Lending Act made by the Mortgage Disclosure Improvement Act of 2008 on July 30, 2009. Those changes include, but are not limited to the following: · Collection of Fees – the only fee now allowed to be collected upfront without proper disclosure and a complete application is the charge incurred for running credit. · New Business Day Definition – Saturday now legally counts as a day in which the borrower/buyer is expected to review the disclosures presented to them. Now only Sundays and Federal holiday’s are considered “free days.” · Annual Percentage Rate (APR)/Good Faith Estimate change(s) – if the final APR varies by more than .125% from what was initially disclosed, or if there is an overall 10% change in the fees and charges found on the originally presented GFE, the lender has to re-disclose everything to the buyer. Three business days MUST pass after the would be buyer receives this new information before closing can occur. Also the Federal Govern-

ment has found fit to deem “snail mail” as taking it’s own three business days.

Although these updated rules and regulations were once again put place to protect the buyer, without having a very competent lender/Realtor team working for said buyer, the Mortgage Disclosure Improvement Act has the possibility of actually working against the grain.

Let’s suppose you are first-time home buyer and have found the right home. You plan on using an FHA loan and are disclosed a rate of 5% with an APR of 5.709%.

However, your lender forgets to include the FHA Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium in the APR calculation as a Prepaid Finance Charge. Your lender is responsible for disclosing all of the fees properly, including “Prepaid Finances Charges.” This oversight results in an updated APR of 5.879%, more than .125% higher than last disclosed. The mistake is caught 2 days before closing, and with these new rules in place, you must be re-disclosed and wait 3 more days before you can sign! This puts you in a position where you might breach the terms of the contract, potentially causing you to lose your earnest money and more important, lose the house.

Now more than ever – with lending regulations consistently tightening – it’s invaluable that you have a team of true professionals working for you and watching out for your best interests. If you have any real estate lending related questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to write me at tfreymortgages@ yahoo.com or call me directly on my new cell phone, (925) 726-1444.

EDUCATION

A capital experience Oakley I am writing to tell you about the 10 most amazing days of my life. I was nominated to attend a youth program this summer, called the National Young Leaders Conference, or NYLC, held at Tyson’s Sheraton Premiere hotel in Washington, D.C. At first, I questioned the importance of this program. After all, I had heard that it wasn’t uncommon for teens my age to go on trips to Washington, D.C. But this was something different, as I soon learned. Suddenly, I found out we would be experiencing things that at their best, less than 1 percent of teenage kids had the privilege to do.

The goal of the program was to educate young emerging leaders about our government. We also got to tour the sites of D.C. and on occasion attend sites and programs of our choosing, like the National Rifle Association, or hear a speaker on the Human Rights Campaign, and other great things.

We learned about national issues and the roles of government through important guest speakers, through experiencing Capitol Hill and Washington D.C. and their symbols, and my personal favorite, through simulating the parts of government. We heard many important people speak, covering national issues and government affairs.

Of all the things we had the privilege to experience, Capitol Hill was really the peak of all of them. During our time at Capitol Hill,

we were one of only two youth programs ever with the permission to be on the floor of the House of Representatives, sitting in the same seats that our state representatives sit and decide legislation in. It was a truly captivating experience to realize I was in a place that most Americans would never get to be in their entire lifetime.

To top off this wonderful experience, we had the Honorable Butler Derrick, a retired senator, speak with us about his life in Congress. And that was only half a day of the 10 days that I was – again I say privileged – to experience.

And lastly, those wonderful simulations.

In predetermined groups, I and peers I grew close to participated in various simulations of the roles of government. These simulations included executive branch, judicial branch and legislative branch simulations, called If I Were President, Testing the Constitution, and Model Congress, respectively.

These are the highlights for me of an amazing 10 days I will always remember. It wasn’t just the things I learned, but the diverse people with rich backgrounds that I met and the friends I made that made this trip so unforgettable.

I couldn’t have done any of it, however, without a wonderful supporting community that sponsored me and donated funds toward my trip. These wonderful organizations and people include Jody Hansen and Napa Valley Cast Stone, The Lions clubs of Oakley and Bethel Island, the Knights of Columbus

Delta Vista Middle School’s successful PASS (Passing on Apparel for Student Success) store will be open to the public on Thursday and Friday, Aug. 20 and 21 from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. in the PASS room on campus.

“Back to school can be a very stressful time for families and we would like to help out,” said Assistant Principal Harvey Yurkovich. “Our PASS room is full of school-appropriate clothing and we would like parents and students to come on down and select free school clothing for their children and even for themselves if they need it. The clothing is great to have, but my philosophy is that it does not help people if it’s just sitting in the racks.”

The PASS program is an on-site clothing bank developed by Yurkovich as a way to provide students in need with free, school-appropriate clothing. The store accepts donations of gently used clothing, shoes and school supplies.

“Since it’s the beginning of the school year, we are in particular need of school supplies,” said Yurkovich. “Anything people can do to help is greatly appreciated.”

To make a donation to the school store, or for more information on the PASS program, call 925-625-6840.

THE NEW ECONOMY – FINAL POINTS

Preschooler in need of double transplant hospital, where he died a few hours later from a rare heart disease called Pertrophic Cardiomypathy; a typically genetic disease that often strikes without warning.

The Tanners now face yet another heartbreaking challenge: last week, doctors discovered that Aaron –who has undergone seven open-heart surgeries since he was born – must now undergo a simultaneous heart and kidney transplant. Renal failure has placed too much stress on the boy’s heart, and without the rare double-transplant surgery, Aaron’s chances of survival are low.

Aaron Tanner is a cherub-faced 4year-old with a shock of white-blond hair and a ready smile. On the surface, the Brentwood boy looks like any other high-spirited, carefree preschooler, but it’s there that the similarities end.

Aaron was born with a heart that functions only on the right side. The condition kept the newborn in the hospital for six weeks before he was declared strong enough for his parents, Elizabeth and Kevin Tanner, to take him home.

But only a week later, the Tanners’ 2-year-old son Ethan suddenly developed flu-like symptoms. Unable to calm the agitated toddler, they rushed him to the

Susie Carder, COO at One Coach, was gracious enough to permit me to use her materials to educate business owners on how to approach the new economy. She may be reached at Susie@onecoach.com if you would like more details. Her organization does a masterful job at providing support to entrepreneurs in improving their businesses. Here are her final points: Point 11: Profitability. In this new economy, the industry norms have all been thrown out the window. However, we need a starting point, so the industry norms are it.

Profit is everything left after all your expenses have been paid, but before you are taxes. How much profit are you planning for? How does it compare with those in your industry? What services do they provide that you don’t? Do they do something more efficiently than you do? Profit won’t come if you are not planning for it. Break the illusion that you get paid what’s left over. Write yourself a paycheck.

You will build your confidence and show your staff that you believe in what you are doing.

You might want more profit than others in your industry. If so, work the numbers backwards. Where are you spending your dollars, and can you cut a percentage on each line item in your budget or every other line item to improve your bottom line. Ask others who are not in your industry to look over your numbers, because they will see your business from a different perspective.

Point 12: Mindset. I have had a number of clients who built their businesses up just to have them take a downturn. It has always perplexed me, when these entrepreneurs seem so talented, enthusiastic and ambitious.

I now believe that the answer is in your mindset. There are “financial thermostats” that we have in our head, about how much we will make at our businesses. For example, how much per year do you think a dog sitter can make? Well, I have met one who makes over $500,000 per year, doing what he loves best.

Once we have made up our minds with our limitations, we will do just that…limit ourselves. Don’t let your preconceived notions on how much you should make in your industry. I would recommend the book, “The Answer” by John Assaraf to deal with this issue.

Now, if you have rated yourself 1 – 10 on each of these points, you will have a score of 0 to 120. Where to start? Look at your lowest score. Maybe do a step by step program for “frequent buyers,” rewarding the customers that believe in you. If you have carefully looked at these 12 steps, there are many ways to get started and gain some power and forward movement in your business. Give me a call if you want some more ideas. I will not wish you luck, but I will wish you willingness to take action.

On protecting the rights of flies Editor: Recently the President of the United States swatted a pesky fly during a televised interview. “Got the sucker,” he exclaimed, with a bit of pride. Not too long after, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) expressed their concern at the Fly Swatter-in-chief’s execution of the fly, stating that “We believe that people, where they can be compassionate, should be, for all animals,” then they sent the president a bug catcher to catch future flies and set them free outside. Such care, such concern, such compassion, such moral superiority – such crap.

I don’t know. I guess I take a jaundiced look at one group that espouses protecting the animals that were put on earth for the rest of us to eat, while other groups turn a blind eye to protecting the rights of the most vulnerable of our species – the child unborn. There is something radically wrong here, something misguided, something upside down.

When the President of the United States goes in front of the world and tells all who will listen that we lost our moral compass by “torturing” a few war combatants, who would slit our throats in a nanosecond, then champion the rights of women to “choose,” I listen in disbelief. What do women have a right to choose? Simply stated, it is, I believe, the right to accept and bear, or dispose of, or kill, an unborn child.

I’ve been on this earth well over 77 years and have enjoyed those years immensely. I feel blessed, lucky, privileged and, well, grateful. I had a mother, who suffered, like all mothers giving birth, but who believed I had a right to live and made sure that right was honored. The fact that we were in a deep depression with limited money never crossed her mind. And by her religious convictions, she was willing to give up her own life so that I could live. That’s the kind of mom I had.

And those of you who are reading this

had similar good fortune. Isn’t that wonderful, or have you ever thought about it? Simply stated, children conceived have a right to protection. Oh, you can take the moral high ground on “torture” at Guantanamo, or on the rights of animals, but defense of those rights pales in comparison to the rights of the child unborn.

Those who would defend the right to abort an unborn might say: life is hard enough, why bring children into the world permanently damaged by mothers who are addicted to drugs, for example, or who have debilitating diseases such as Downs Syndrome, which unnecessarily affects the quality of life of the child and the rest of the family?

If it comes down to a choice between the survival of the child or me, isn’t the temple of the life-giver as sacred as the life given? If I had obligations, like another child and a husband and could have other children in the future, don’t I have a right to live?

Should a woman be required to bear the unwanted conception of a rapist?

These are very compelling and human arguments, and reflect a degree of sophistication, with elements of truth and self interest parading in front. I respect those arguments, and believe that most women would rather not choose to abort a child unborn. But my parade has the same elements of truth and self interest. I’m glad my mother was not that sophisticated, and to give greater concern for terrorists, flies and dumb animals, well, that dog won’t hunt.

Bravo Oakley Editor: Regarding the article “Streets donates soccer field,” I would like to add a clarification on behalf of the East Diablo Youth Soccer League (EDYSL). In comments made to your paper, I and League President Sash Migay discussed the league’s struggles in using City of Brentwood parks for soccer fields. This may have misled some readers to think that we have that same trouble in all the surrounding communities we serve.

On the contrary, City of Oakley Parks and Recreation officials, specifically Denis Nishihara and Dan Yore, have been especially flexible and cooperative with our league. The City of Oakley provides a number of its parks as field space for all ages at little or no cost to the league. In fact, the league has recently entered into an agreement with Oakley to maintain the fields at the Freedom Basin and use them exclusively for our members’ benefit. In addition, the City of Oakley is currently in discussions with our league to have more soccer fields built in the very near future.

East Diablo would like to thank the City of Oakley for its outstanding service

Jennifer Charvet East Diablo Youth Soccer League

Delta in peril Editor: The California Delta is in ecological crisis. Urban growth, pollution discharged into the Delta, invasive species and aging levees will have an ever-increasing negative impact on the environmental health and economic sustainability of the region if left unmanaged. However, the greatest threat presently to the California Delta is the mismanagement of water exports.

Since 2000, water exports to Central and Southern California have reached record high levels under the current practices of the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) and the Federal Bureau of Reclamation. This increase in the pumping of Delta water has increased salinity in waterways that were primarily fresh water, and is changing water quality in a way that is more favorable for the reproduction of invasive species.

Such an ecological collapse will have a permanent and negative impact on agricultural yields, the Delta boating and fishing industry, and drinking water quality for residents within the Delta. Knowing that residents of the Delta will pay the price, we cannot turn a blind eye. We must do something. Our local media need to investigate and report on how continued excessive water exports will forever alter our communities and our quality of life.

Wayne Allen Oakley

Backbreaking education Editor: My child, who is in 10th grade at Freedom, has to bring more than three books a day, along with binders. I weighed her pack and it was 25 pounds. It has been proven over and over again that a heavy backpack destroys the back. I know the answer is a rolling backpack or a suitcase on wheels, yet I couldn’t afford it.

The school can’t provide books in the classroom; there must be some sort of compromise. Freedom doesn’t even offer lockers to get a break from the load once the students get to school. As far as I can tell, Freedom isn’t about the best for students; it’s about the best for the chiropractor!

Sue Higgins Oakley

Float your boat Editor: I wanted to follow up on my last letter to inform everyone that will be affected if the Peripheral Canal is allowed to con-

tinue. There is a rally scheduled for Aug. 17. See www.millionboatfloat.org for more information.

We the citizens who care about the eco-system, fish, wildlife, farmers, recreational activities, business and marinas, and of course, our own drinking water intend to meet our legislators on their own Capitol steps for a discussion about the canal diverting water out of the Delta and the harm that that has caused and what more harm could be caused.

Let’s see if the legislators are man enough to meet with us. Please, people, this land is our land and the legislators are our elected officials. Speak up so they can hear us. They need to remember that it is “Government for the people, by the people and of the people.” Not government for the government.”

Jody Mazzarella Bethel Island

Caught off guard at Safeway Editor: Last Saturday, Aug. 1, was the first day I’d been out grocery shopping sporting my newly bald head and a tired attitude, having already made a Costco run. I needed a few final things for my daughter’s 18th birthday the following day.

As I headed down the yogurt aisle a very nice man accompanied by his son stopped me and asked me if I was a cancer survivor. I hadn’t been out in public with my new hairdo until that day and had ignored most looks that day at my funky looking ’do. And did I mention I was tired?

“No, I’m a cancer patient,” I snapped.

Later I realized I also had a Breast Cancer Supporter shirt on too … yes, I was broadcasting. I didn’t mean to snap. I meant to take the time to explain that I am not a survivor; I intend to be a thriver!

I am winning my cancer war with love and the ability to thrive. I knew I couldn’t explain this to a casual stranger in the 15 seconds I allotted myself in between the butter and the cheeses. Nor did I have the tenacity at that precise moment to ask about his brush with cancer, since I’m sure he must have had an equally striking story.

I am writing this to thank that gentleman for his interest and his willingness to ask a stranger about their wellbeing.

I am reminded that not everyone can read my thoughts even if they must be more transparent without my usual full head of hair. I encourage him to continue to speak to people and impact their lives.

His son must be proud to have a dad willing to step out of his comfort zone and connect with others.

So, Mr. Safeway. Thank you. I’m sorry for my abrupt response. I’ve been thinking of your kindness for the last five days and will continue to do so!

Transplant from page 11A out what they are up against,” said Laura Page, executive director of Kids Helping Kids, who recently heard of the Tanners’ plight. “This surgery is so rare that they have teams within teams of doctors working on this. We’re just trying to get the word out and do what we can to help.”

Help will be coming in part through a fundraiser, to be held sometime next month, that Page is organizing. According to Page, the Tanners’ medical bills are stacking up, and because of the debt they incurred with the death of Ethan, the family is facing foreclosure on their home.

“Aaron takes eight different medications a day to regulate his heart and blood pressure, and to prevent water from building up around his heart,” said Page in a recent e-mail. “Just one (of the medications) costs $7,000 a month. They have a cap on their insurance, which they are dangerously close to (before this recent hospital stay and proposed surgery). They really need our prayers and big miracles.”

Aaron and his mom are expected to remain at UCSF for the next few weeks as doctors develop a plan and Aaron un-

dergoes kidney dialysis. He will also be given a medication designed to ease the blood flow and keep his blood pressure in check.

Despite her son’s dire situation, Elizabeth remains strong and optimistic.

“Aaron is in good spirits, as always,” she wrote in a blog earlier this week. “He is a bit sleepy, but is still able to give the staff a run for their money. We are waiting and praying. I can’t thank everyone enough for their support and prayers, blogs and notes of love and encouragement. It feels like our whole community is really pulling for us and I know God hears our prayers; you can feel it, it’s so evident in all that is happening.”

For those able to help the Tanner family, a few options are available: a fund has been set up at the Bank of Agriculture on Balfour Road in Brentwood; you may donate online at the Network for Good Web site, www.networkforgood.org/donation/expressdonation. aspx?orgid@=208836568 and type “Aaron Tanner” in the donation field; and to help with the September fundraiser, call Laura Page at 925-759-4806.

val, the band will play at the East Contra Costa Historical Society’s annual barbecue fundraiser in September.

The Brentwood Concert Band practices every Monday from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Liberty High School Band Room, located in the school’s Performing Arts Center at 850 Second St. Band members pay a $50 participation fee, from which students are exempt.

For more information about joining or booking the band, call Stuart at 925-6343411.

we have 25 church members who are volunteers, but we’re certainly going to open that (volunteering opportunity) to the community at some point.”

In the meantime, said Hicks, the Red Cross has supplied St Anne with disaster start-up kits for approximately 100 people, although he added that the facility itself could easily accommodate 250 residents.

Briana Taylor, a volunteer with the Red Cross, has been working with St. Anne to provide emergency training, and said one thing that makes the church an ideal relief site is the very nature of its designation.

“What we know is that in a disaster, people who are injured are going to go to their churches for help,” said Taylor. “And once people know their immediate family is OK, they will again turn to go to their churches as a way to help others. And that’s one reason we approached St. Anne. It really helps us (Red Cross) because we are limited (staff-wise).”

Other churches in East County have entered into understandings with the Red Cross, said Crawford, including Church of the Good Shepherd in Pittsburg and Holy Rosary Church in Antioch. Which facilities get opened to the public during an emergency, however, is left to the discretion of the Office of Emergency Services based on need and location.

“All of those locations might be prepared to serve as shelters, but if something happens, you should turn on the radio to which ones are actually being activated,” said Taylor. “It’s always a fine line.”

“Contra Costa County is really large,” added Crawford. “And our focus is always on making sure the vulnerable population such as children, the elderly and the poor are taken care of, and sometimes it varies.

An earthquake in San Ramon versus one in Richmond would be a very different set of circumstances.”

Still, said Taylor, in the event of a disas-

signed a one-year contract to keep their story on the Web. And although the price tag is around $1,000 per month, Paris said they are already seeing results.

“The Fourth of July was our first viewing, and since then the response has been really good,” he said. “This week alone we’ve had over 300 hits, and we’ve gotten some business out of it.”

Figuring what’s good for goose must be good for the gander, the Piches have also logged onto the site as fans, recommending other Oakley businesses, such as the Black Bear Diner, for “Best of the Bay” consideration.

“We’d like to have the business and we’d like others to have it too,” said Paris.

“All you have to do is click on as a ‘fan’ and you can promote yourself. It’s a great 21st-century way of advertising.”

The Piches are no strangers to the promotion game. Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Paris has owned a string of successful restaurants throughout his career. When he met Elaine nearly 15 years ago, she was an executive with the Clorox Corporation, and the owner of Carol Joyce Cosmetics. Elaine had bought the business from Carol Joyce, who, as the story goes,

opened her mail-order business in 1948.

As Joyce developed a reputation for her all-natural, specially formulated products, a woman named Mary Kay came to work for Joyce, helping her with sales and marketing.

“After several years,” said Elaine, “Mary Kay offered to buy the business from Carol Joyce, but she (Joyce) wasn’t ready to retire yet. The rest, as they say, is history.”

Elaine eventually purchased the company herself from Joyce in 1986, and has been expanding the product ever since.

The line includes an array of all-natural moisturizers, toners and masques as well as makeup products.

While business has reflected the ebb and flow of the economy over the years, the Piches believe customers are looking for a return to non-synthetic, proven products, and they are hoping the “Best of the Bay” experience will help to spread the word.

“We have an excellent product that lasts longer than most other commercial products and is popular with both men and women,” said Paris. “This (Best of the Bay) is a great way to get out there and network. This town needs advertising. If I can

“We welcome everyone,” said Stuart.

“This is Brentwood’s band. We’re a group of people who love music and love to perform. If you can play an instrument, there is a place for you in the band. There is a special bond between musicians. You find that automatic connection through the love of music.”

Best from page 12A And to that end, the Piches have recently launched their own online advertising campaign via a KRON4 news show called “Best of the Bay.” The well-known half-hour television program features local and commercial businesses throughout the Bay Area, and each year, the “Best of” producers host a Web site voter competition that invites viewers to log on and name their favorite Bay Area businesses.

Listed under a variety of categories, voters can click on their choice of business and also nominate other businesses, including themselves. At the end of the calendar year, producers announce the winners based on total votes garnered.

Honorees win themselves bragging rights and commercial exposure.

“I saw one of the programs where they said you could vote for your favorite business, and I thought ‘Why not? I’m my own favorite business,’” laughed Paris. A few months later, KRON producers, who eventually came out and filmed a short commercial for Carol Joyce Cosmetics, contacted Paris. The Piches were so impressed with the end product and the professionalism of the filming crew that they

ter, the best offense is a solid defense. “All it takes to be prepared are three simple things: make a plan, pick a meeting place and put together some supplies.”

A plan, said Taylor, is as simple as picking a contact person everyone agrees to call following an event. “Choose someone who doesn’t live in the area and is a contact person for all family members to call,” said Taylor. “Sometimes during an emergency you can’t make local calls but you are able to call out of the area, so picking someone farther away is a good idea.

“After the Oakland Hills fire I remember that the hardest thing was that no one knew where anyone was. It was a Sunday and people were out and were hard to reach. So having a meeting place, knowing where to go if there is a fire, is helpful for everyone.”

The third step, putting together supplies, said Taylor, is also simple.

“Build or buy some kind of a kit,” she said. “You should have enough food and water on hand for 72 hours. What you need will depend upon your people. Think about medical needs for young and older people, flashlights, batteries and first-aid kits. It wouldn’t hurt to add an extra pair of glasses or contact lens solution.

The reality, said Crawford, is that the more help the better, and the fact that groups such as St. Anne and local schools are on board makes everyone’s chances of survival better.

Panthers counting on vets this season

by Dave Roberts Staff Writer

For the first half of last season the Antioch High football team appeared to be in the driver’s seat. They were 4-2 after six weeks, including a 49-14 trouncing of Liberty in the first league game.

But then the Panthers hit a brick wall as they faced their other league opponents.

They narrowly lost to Freedom by a touchdown, but then got pummeled by Heritage and failed to put any points on the board against Deer Valley and Pittsburg.

“We had some academic problems and some injuries late in the season,” said Antioch Head Coach Randy Autentico.

“I think they affected us. Also we had the tough part of our schedule was the league (games). Because this league is really tough.

Four of the six teams in the league were playoff teams. Each year it’s going to be a dogfight. Every game is like really tough.”

Three all-league players – running back Rasjeon Hines, lineman Steven Hill and linebacker Marcel Warren – have graduated. But fortunately, many veterans will be returning, providing hope for bigger and better things in the coming season.

“This year we feel like we have some returning lettermen and are hoping to improve on our record,” said Autentico. “If we play well, we hope that we can be a playoff team.

But it remains to be seen. It all depends on our senior leadership. That’s our big question mark. If our seniors will come through and

Two Panthers practice tackling and fighting their way out of a tackle as Head Coach Randy Autentico looks on. they will lead, set examples to the younger players, I think there’s the possibility that we could have a pretty good season.”

The players he’ll be counting on include tackle Steven Johnson, center Fernie Melgoza, tight end Nick Lucero, wide receiver and defensive back Greg Arroyos, outside linebacker Jon Myers, defensive lineman Nikk Novero, defensive lineman Matt Fuller, running back Richie Bronaugh, running back Jamar Lea, defensive back and wide receiver Shamawn Wright, and guard Jerred Newberry – the nephew of former Panther and recently retired

NFL center Jeremy Newberry, who is coaching the offensive line (see the story on page 1B).

“These are some of the players that we are looking forward to having a good year for us and helping us have a good season,” said Autentico. “We will be pretty experienced offensively. Defensively we will have some young kids who will come up and have to fill it for us. The kids are enthusiastic and work hard. We just feel if we can stay away from academic problems and injuries, we will improve and be competitive this year.”

Also returning at quarterback is Jordan

Hoyle, who passed for 124 yards per game in his first year at the helm. “We are looking for good things from him this year in the way of leadership and performance,” the coach said.

“He’s a really good athlete and we are hoping that he can help lead this offense.”

Autentico was asked about his team’s strengths and weaknesses.

“I feel like we should be pretty solid offensively,” he said. “Probably our inexperience and some of our new players that are coming up, that will be one of the things that we have to be concerned about. So they are going to have to grow up real quick. They have to get experienced and become veterans real fast.”

While the players and head coach get all the attention, Autentico shares the credit with his staff: defensive coordinator John Lucido, defensive back coach Wilson Pica, defensive line coach Mike Butterfield, wide receiver and special teams coach Lee Thull, John O’Connor, who helps with the offensive line, assisting Jeremy Newberry.

It’s been a tough stretch for the Panther faithful, who have enjoyed only one winning season in the last five years (a 6-4 record in 2006). But this year could be the turnaround.

“We are looking forward to having a good season. We would like bring back that competitive, winning football to Antioch High School,” said Autentico. “We are looking forward to this season and trying to improve each year. Last year we thought we had a fairly good season. This year we are trying to increase the number of wins and also to improve the program.”

Lady Lions getting set

by Michael Dixon Correspondent Linda Ghilarducci, in her 28th season as head girls volleyball coach at Liberty High School, believes this season’s team will be competitive. But she’s unwilling to make a specific prediction, because the team is still in development and the final roster has yet to be set.

One of the team’s assets is the experience factor of seven seniors. Emma Foehr, Kim O’Neill, and Colleen Tague have been on the varsity team since they were sophomores.

Ghilarducci said this year’s team is a hardworking group that plays from the heart: “I believe in hard work, and it pays off – success follows it.”

In her prior 27 seasons, Ghilarducci’s teams have made the playoffs an astonishing 25 times. They also won North Coast Section three consecutive seasons: 2004 through 2006, and the 2006 team finished second in the state. Ghilarducci attributes her success to setting high standards. Even if a team falls short of those standards, she said, its performance would still end up being better than nearly any team that they play.

Liberty will play 15 regular season matches and four tournaments. The season opens Sept. 17 at Freedom. The home opener is slated for Sept. 22 against Deer Valley.

The schedule is: Sept. 3 at Deer Valley (Jamboree), Sept. 12 at Deer Valley (tournament), Sept. 17 at Freedom, Sept. 22 vs. Deer Valley, Sept. 24 at Antioch, Sept. 25-26 in Chico (tournament), Sept. 29 at Pittsburg, Oct. 1 vs. Heritage, Oct. 6 vs. Freedom, Oct. 8 at Deer Valley, Oct. 13 vs. Antioch, Oct. 15 vs. Pittsburg, Oct. 17 at Dougherty (San Ramon; tournament), Oct. 20 at Heritage, Oct. 22 at Freedom, Oct. 27 vs. Deer Valley, Oct. 29 at Antioch, Oct. 31 in Northgate (tournament), Nov. 3 at Pittsburg, and Nov. 5 vs.

Heritage.

Newberry from page 1B line. “I prided myself on being a physical lineman. I have probably been borderline on unnecessary roughness, hitting people downfield. They have some tough kids and players capable of going on to the next level. I’m trying to help these kids out and bring what I was about when I played. They respond really well. They are a hard-working group of kids.”

The Antioch football program has fallen on hard times in recent years, posting only one winning season in the past five years. Newberry, who earned first-team All-Bay Valley Athletic League, All-East Bay, All-Bay Area, All-NorCal and All-Far West honors as a Panther in the early ’90s, hopes to help turn that around.

“We really had good teams,” he said.

“It was disappointing that they slipped to the level they did – Antioch wasn’t a very good team any more. And it was once a see Newberry page 5B

proud program. Myself and the other people who played there need to give back and make it a great program again.”

The team has four assistant coaches and really needs seven or eight to give the players the training they need, he said. So he’s been contacting some of his old teammates to see if they can help out.

Although it’s too early to make an accurate assessment of the Panthers’ chances in the upcoming season, he said, “I think we will have a very good (offensive) line.

The quarterback (Jordan Hoyle) has a good touch and they have a running back who can run the ball. We have a chance to have a real physical running team.”

Newberry hopes to not only inspire the

players on the field but off as well in “just being a great student athlete. A lot of these kids don’t have grades. I always had a good GPA. That’s something I really prided myself on. There’s life after football – I am just now experiencing that. If I find out they are messing up in school I will be definitely on these kids.”

Newberry, who was an all-pro center with the 49ers, will also be busy in “retirement” managing his All Pro Limousine business, which is based in Brentwood. It’s doing quite well, providing Hummers and stretch limos for special occasions, despite the down economy, he said.

Local YMCAs offer freebies for families The Mt. Diablo Region YMCA is now offering families free memberships to the Delta Family YMCA in Oakley or the Irvin Deutscher Family YMCA in Pleasant Hill if they enroll their child in a child care program, representing a $950 annual savings per family.

In addition, the East County YMCA child care facilities are waiving the registration fee for child care, a $75 savings, until Aug. 31. The YMCA aims to support its community during this difficult economic climate and is striving to make membership and child care affordable to parents that require child care assistance before or after school. The YMCA also offers full or partial financial assistance scholarships to assist families to pay for the child care.

The Mt. Diablo Region YMCA child care program offers many benefits to children, including enriching activities carefully planned each week to provide the right balance of learning and fun. The program offers homework support, games, sports, outdoor activities, art and crafts projects, music and singing that help children with all aspects of their development, including creativity, coordination and teamwork. All child care programs are administered by YMCA site directors, who are state-licensed child care professionals.

“Now more than ever, the families in our community need an affordable, positive and life enriching place to come together

and participate in healthy activities and programs,” said Michael F. Erwin, president and CEO of the Mt. Diablo Region YMCA. ...

We hope that by offering fun, healthy and creative activities, we can ease the pressure and burden on the families in our community.”

According to Dawn Maddox, parent and community member of Antioch, “My daughter attends the YMCA child care at Lone Tree Elementary, and when it came time to sign her up for the coming year I was wondering whether I could afford it. When I was informed that the registration is free this year, I was so relieved. I’m thankful for all the wonderful care they give my daughter; it puts my mind at ease knowing she is in good hands. We are looking forward to the opportunity to participate in the YMCA family membership this year.”

At the U.C.

Davis Heat, which had brought in four ringers.
