Local hero remembered

This year’s Women of Inspiration honorees were, from left, Susan Robeck, Carol Paladini and Carrie Lundquist of the Women’s Fund of Santa Barbara, Rebecca Costa Smith and Lindsey Connolly of Destined for Grace, Girls Inc. Executive Director Victoria Juarez and Cynder Sinclair of Nonprofit Kinect.
Women of Inspiration enjoys record attendance
A sea of supporters filled the Girls Inc. of Carpinteria gymnasium on May 19 to help improve the lives of local girls and honor local women. The annual Women of Inspiration luncheon boasted record attendance, and organizers hope that record fundraising will result as well, giving local girls even greater opportunities to cultivate their smarts, strength and boldness. Stunning the crowd with her heartfelt, unfiltered message was inspirational speaker Alix Generous. The 21-year-old woman whose Asperger’s went undiagnosed as a child and who was misdiagnosed with various mental illnesses and learning disabilities, shared her unique perspective on the world. As a teen, she said, she lumped everyone into two categories: normal and not. Through years of treatment, she came to recognize her own gifts and to see that everyone struggles with who they are and how they fit in. Now Generous is working toward a degree in neuroscience and has spoken at the United Nations and traveled the world. “Your problems and your past don’t define you,” she told the audience, “but how you deal with them does.” Girls Inc. Executive Director Victoria
Juarez told the crowd that while Generous is already making her mark, members of Girls Inc. of Carpinteria are also bound for greatness. “Someday these girls are going to change the world,” she said. Under Juarez’s leadership, the local organization has shifted its focus toward a college-bound program called Eureka!, which engages girls in science, technology, engineering and math while giving them the support needed to be successful in college and their careers. Ana Delgado and Maria Zamora, two Carpinteria High School freshmen who are enrolled in the Eureka! program, emceed the luncheon. Poised and confident in front of the massive crowd, the girls reported on progress made by women around the world and locally in the last year. Twenty-two nations are led by female presidents; Paris has its first female mayor; and the CHS girls tennis team won back-to-back league and CIF titles. Santa Barbara area women are annually honored at the Women of Inspiration luncheon for their accomplishments and leadership. This year’s Carpinteria

Fallen soldier immortalized by Carpinteria artist By Kateri WozNy
Army Specialist Jaime Rodriguez Jr. was described as an open, laid back and a joker. “He used to tell me I was ‘phat’ (cool),” smiled his mother, Dulce Soto. “I would say, ‘I love you, too.’” on July 26, 2007, Soto was beginning her day like any other when the knock came on her door that no mother wants to hear: Her 19-year-old son had died on impact from a bomb near his vehicle in Saqlawiyah, a city northwest of Fallujah. Rodriguez was in the middle of his tour before his death and had been shipped off to Iraq in January 2007. He was less than a month away from a scheduled two-week leave. “I looked through the peep hole and saw the Army and police officers. I knew why they were there. I just lost it,” Soto said. Eerily enough, Soto had a dream on July 4 in which she felt like she was dying and saw Rodriguez’s and her late mother’s faces in passing. In fear, she called her son. “I thought something would happen to me and wanted to speak to
Jaime. His last words to me were I love you. I told him I loved him too and be careful,” Soto said. A 2005 graduate of Carpinteria High School, Rodriguez enrolled in the Army shortly after he finished school because he wanted to help his country and also “liked the physical aspect and to be outside,” according to his brother Alex. After completing basic training, he returned to Carpinteria in 2006 and saw his family for the last time that Thanksgiving. “He used to joke with me and say it’s my fault he joined the Army because I never bought him a toy gun growing up,” Soto said. one week after the devastating news, Rodriguez’s body was flown back to Santa Barbara for the funeral and burial. over 50 family members and friends came in to pay their final respects to a young man who had sacrificed his life for his country. Rodriguez was also awarded five posthumous medals, which hang in

Carpinteria hits mid 90s, record temps
Although the National Weather Service does not keep the temperature for Carpinteria, local readings showed the temperatures on May 14 and May 15 topped out in the mid-90s. Santa Barbara set temperature records on both days, according to NWS. The SB airport reading was 98 degrees on May 14 and 97 on May 15, breaking record highs of 90 and 91, both set in 1970.
CUSD hires new special ed director
Kendall Forrester, former coordinator of special education for the Conejo Unified School District, was recently hired last week to oversee Carpinteria Unified School District’s special education program. Forrester replaces Ruth Rech, who is retiring after 27 years with CUSD. Forrester is a graduate of U.C. Davis and California Lutheran University. She serves as adjunct faculty for Cal Lutheran’s Teacher Preparation Program. “Ruth Rech was an outstanding special education teacher and administrator,” stated Superintendent Paul Cordeiro. “She worked very effectively with families and teachers to ensure that students’ needs were met. Like Mrs. Rech, Kendall brings compassion, commitment and precision to what is a very demanding and complicated job.”
Curious Cup announces closure
Curious Cup Bookstore owner Kiona Gross has announced the store will close its doors forever on Monday, June 30. The store, which relocated to 5285 Carpinteria Ave. last October after opening on Linden Avenue in January 2011, has now lost its new retail space, which it shared with recently sold Carpinteria Toy Co. Gross stressed that the full gamut of events typically held at the store like book signings will be held as scheduled. Also, the city-wide Blue Dot Sale on Tuesday, June 17, a cooperative sale involving 60 local businesses and organized by Gross, remains on the calendar. “This event will be our last big hurrah, where everything left in the store will be on sale,” Gross stated. Gift certificates will need to be redeemed before the store closes. Gross, who moved to Carpinteria a few months before opening Curious Cup, quickly networked herself into the community. Her store became a hub for literary, art and children’s activities, among other things. Curious Cup was the 2012 Carpin-
Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office has recently learned of two phone scams being attempted in the area. One resident was victimized by a caller who identified himself as a sheriff’s deputy conducting an investigation. The scammer told the man that his name was on a winning verification notice from Publisher’s Clearing House but that another individual had been found in possession of that document. To claim the prize, the victim was convinced to provide his credit card information over the phone. Several local victims have recently surfaced in a nation-wide phone scam targeting Indian Americans and South Asian Americans. In this scheme, the callers claim to be from the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services or a law enforcement agency. Typically, they have the victims’ last four digits of their social security number. Victims are told that they owe money to the federal government and if they don’t pay immediately over the phone with a pre-paid credit card, they face deportation, a freezing of assets and/or jail.
Family School launches Adult Spelling Bee
Local kids spell under pressure all the time, but next month Carpinteria Family School will turn the tables and launch the First Annual CFS Adult Spelling Bee to benefit the small school. The fundraiser will be held on Saturday, June 7 at 6:30 p.m. at Veteran’s Memorial Hall, 941 Walnut Ave. The school is seeking teams of three to compete for prizes. Entry is $150 per team, and spectator tickets are $15. Hors d’oeuvres and desserts will be served, and a cash bar will be available. Prizes will be awarded for teams in the best costumes. All donations are tax deductible and benefit the Carpinteria Family School. For more information, visit cfsfamily.com or call 570-410.

Carpinteria artist John Godkin’s painting of Jaime Rodriguez is part of the Portraits of the Fallen Memorial, an exhibit that now includes 158 painted portraits of U.S. soldiers killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.

a shrine area in Soto’s house, along with many smiling pictures. “I was numb the whole time (during the funeral). I’m still in shock and disbelief,” Soto said.
Priceless portrait
Fast forward to six years after Rodriguez’s death: January 2013, when local artist John Godkin was attending an art show in Palm Springs where Sherry Moore, founder and creative director of Portraits of the Fallen Memorial, approached him with the incredible proposal to paint Rodriguez’s portrait. “She admired my paintings and really liked them,” Godkin said in a recent interview. “She told me about her organization and wanted to find a (fallen solider) that lived in Carpinteria. A couple months ago I got the information about Jaime.” Godkin, 69, has enjoyed art since he was a child. He excelled in it at Carpinteria High School and later majored in it at Santa Barbara City College and the Santa Barbara Fine Art Institute. He even got his teaching credentials from California Lutheran University to teach art. Godkin’s grandfather was also an artist; he took timeless photographs of the Lakota Sioux Tribe in the 1870s and 1880s, which are now on display in the Native American archives at the Smithsonian. After researching his grandfather, Godkin located the photos and began painting the portraits with oil on canvas. “There’s something about doing por-
traits. When you look at a person, you don’t see their characteristics, you see their personality,” he said. “By the time you’ve assembled the parts that make up the person’s face, you have a feeling of that (personality) coming through. It’s a rewarding challenge.” The Portraits of the Fallen Memorial was started by Moore in 2010 and is funded by the Pasadena Arts Council EMERGE program. There are 744 fallen service members from California who served in Afghanistan or Iraq, according to the Los Angeles Times’ California War Dead database, which Moore uses as a reference. So far, there have been 158 painted portraits by 157 California artists. Long term, the memorial is projected to be the first and largest digital interactive war memorial that can be replicated for each state, with more than 6,500 fallen U.S. heroes. “This is a mission which all Americans should take an interest in. These volunteers gave their lives for all of us,” Moore said. Being a Vietnam War veteran, Godkin feels a special connection to the portrait of Rodriguez. The 5-inch by 5-inch oil painting captures the happy spirit of the fallen hero. “With this memorial, this is an opportunity to donate my talent to honor those who have sacrificed so much for our country,” Godkin said. “The only judge is when Jaime’s family sees it, (I hope) they say, ‘Oh, that’s him.’ If they get to see him up there in a permanent memorial, that’s

Over 200 voices plus well-known soloists and a full orchestra will be presenting Giuseppe Verdi's “Messa da Requiem.” Though the event will be emotional, Soto and her family hope to attend the concert. “I have not found peace with his death,” Soto said. “I still see his smiling face and I’m afraid one day I’ll forget the sound of his voice. I try to stay strong. I have to for my children.” For more information about the memorial concert and Portraits of the Fallen Memorial, visit blessedsacramentconcerts. com and portraitsofthefallenmemorial.org.

Reverse osmosis sends precious water down the drain
Our house came with a reverse osmosis water system under the sink, which feeds a small faucet on the sink as well as the icemaker and cold water in the refrigerator. Knowing that “RO” uses water to attain clean water, I started thinking about how much water it might waste down the sewer. I disconnected the waste line that connects to our sink drain and directed it into a five-gallon bucket. The result of this test really got my attention! After taking a few drinks of water from the little faucet, it started to cycle and recharge the storage tank—using about three gallons of water! So three gallons of water would have gone down the drain, all for maybe 1/10th of a gallon of drinking water. Considering that people think nothing of getting ice and water from the fridge or making ice tea or coffee, it turns out it takes a lot of water. Research on the internet shows that the typical Reverse Osmosis systems used in the household wastes around 10 or more gallons of water for every gallon produced. Currently we are collecting the RO wastewater in a five-gallon bucket, about three to four gallons at a time, and putting it into a trashcan, from which we water

plants. I plan on routing my RO waste line outside directly into a container to make sure it does not go down a drain. Three to four gallons at a time may not seem to be much, but it really adds up. The fact that RO output is perfectly good clean water that is silently wasted without anyone realizing is a little shocking! Remember, that pot of coffee just put many gallons of water down the drain. Or, that glass of water? There goes another gallon or two wasted.

Freedom is not free
This coming May 26 is observed as Memorial Day. We here in Carpinteria live in paradise. All that we enjoy is because of the sacrifices of a few brave men and women, who with their lives, have enabled us to enjoy all that surrounds us. I wish everyone would take a few minutes out of their lives to think of those brave service members who gave their lives for us. Memorial Day is for those who did not return from conflict. Also, it’s for those gold star families who lost loved ones. So while most of us enjoy a day off work, maybe a ballgame or a cookout, or just spending time with family and friends, make sure you remember our heroes who have made our way of life possible. To all of our veterans, welcome home and thank you. I would like to remind all of you, “freedom is not free.” A very high price has been paid in full by those we honor this Memorial Day. God bless America.

Candidates make cases for Carpinteria votes
Come June 3, Carpinteria voters will have to choose between nine candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives and two for the State Assembly. To help you decide which candidates best align themselves with your voting values, Coastal View News posed one question to each: Why should Carpinterians vote for you? Read on for a diverse array of candidate responses.
U.S. House of Representatives 24th District Lois Capps, Democrat (SB County) Incumbent
“I believe we must continue to rebuild our economy by investing in education, clean energy and high-tech research. We must make the tax code simpler and more fair. And we must fix our broken immigration system. These are the priorities I will continue to fight for on behalf of Carpinterians.”
Chris Mitchum, Republican (SB County) Actor/Writer/Businessman
“Any Republican candidate running for Congress would do a better job than Lois Capps. However, she has done extensive polling and found that, head-to-head, I am the one who beats her. Her TV ad targets me in hopes that she won’t have to face me, and the inevitable, in November.”
Sandra Marshall, Democrat (SLO County) Publisher/ Community Organizer
“It’s time to take money out of politics, to replace the do nothing Congress, and focus on what matters to us—the 99 percent. As your representative, I will actively take on campaign finance reform, climate change, healthcare for all and ensure that coastline cities, like Carpinteria, are preserved and protected.”
Steve Isakson, No Party Preference (SLO County) Electronic Engineer/ Businessman
“Carpinterians should elect me to represent the people of this district to meet their needs rather than special interests and political parties. I will address problems like deficit spending and a dysfunctional Congress. But Carpinteria has local problems like the current drought. We need to address these as a team.”
Paul H. Coyne, Jr., Democrat (SB County) Bank Manager/ Businessman
“I am the only candidate with 32 plus years of finance, small business, credit, lending, banking, real estate, and a military veteran in the race. I am a fiscal conservative and moderate on social issues. We need a new representative that is more prudent with tax payer dollars, budgets, and responsible government spending.”
Alexis Stuart, Republican (SLO County) Consultant/ Author/ Broker
“I am not a politician, nor will I ever strive to be one. I am a voter and small business owner; who, like you, is tired of what is going on in Washington, D.C. My main goals: reduce regulations, taxes, government departments, restore freedom and abolish the Affordable Care Act.”
Justin Donald Fareed, Republican (SB County) Cattle Rancher/ Businessman
“I am the only candidate who was born and raised in the district. I am Vice President of my family business, which manufactures sports-medical devices here in Carpinteria. As a local with federal policy experience, I will bring fresh ideas to Congress for our district and for our nation’s best interests.”
Dale Francisco, Republican (SB County) Santa Barbara City Council Member
(Excerpt from candidate statement) “Representative government is a right of all Americans. Gridlock is common in Congress because many of our representatives vote ‘the party line’ rather than understanding the issues and crafting solutions that work.”
State Assembly 37th District Ron Deblauw, Republican (Ventura County) Real Estate Broker
“I have a strong background in business and a passion to make things better. Jobs and companies leaving California effects Carpinteria. My main focus will be: creating job opportunities for people; reasonable regulations for keeping companies and jobs here; and working toward solving the water crisis.”
Das Williams, Democrat (SB County) Incumbent
“During my service to Carpinteria in the State Assembly, we have worked to balance our budget and grow a reserve. Last year, I worked hard to ensure the passage of a new funding formula for our schools, which will gradually increase the amount of money going to Carpinteria Unified by over $2,000 per student.”
Bradley Allen, Republican (SB County) Pediatric Heart Surgeon
“As a pediatric heart surgeon, and a small business owner, I will bring leadership, experience and the problem solving approach I learned as a doctor to fixing our healthcare and economy, not more political talking points. Isn’t it time we sent people with real-life experience to Washington instead of politicians?”

Johanna Hendrika van Egmond 10/14/1933 – 5/2/2014
Johanna van Egmond passed away peacefully in Santa Barbara, Calif. due to complications of ALS. She was born in The Hague, Netherlands to Roelof and Jannetje van Egmond. She and her sisters, Corrie and Diek, all survived World War II. Johanna left home at age 17 to begin a lifetime of travel visiting every continent but one. She worked and lived in Lourdes and Paris, France, then on to Lucerne, Switzerland. In 1957, her next adventure took her to Australia, where daughters Ruby and Gigi were born. The family immigrated to the USA in 1967. Johanna loved children and enjoyed a teaching career for over 50 years, including 25 years as the owner of Carousel Pre-School in Long Beach, Calif. She loved her family, reading, the beach, the gym and her garden. Her great sense of humor kept everyone laughing. She leaves behind her daughters Ruby (Ken) and Gigi (Dave); grandchildren Spencer, Hayley (Joe), Alyse and great grand-child Sienna; best friend and sister Diek and brother-in-law Wim Schippers; brother-in-law Ruut van Zanten; nephews and nieces in Holland, England and Australia; friends in Long Beach and thousands of children who attended Carousel Pre-School. We are all so happy to have enjoyed so many wonderful years and have such great memories. To a life well lived!

John Romero 9/10/1923 - 5/16/2014 Carpinteria’s Son and member of the Greatest Generation
John Romero was born Sept 10, 1923. Son of J u a n R o m e ro and Ramona Lopez Romero, John grew up on the Fithian Ranch, where his father was in charge of all horses and mules (the most reliable mode of transportation in those days). John experienced the hard work that goes with ranching including driving cattle from Montecito to Simi Valley. These experiences would serve him well when his father started his own ranch and orchard. John was drafted into the US Army while studying animal husbandry at Cal Poly SLO. His ranching background gave him real world experiences. One might say he had a “leg up.” While in the Army, John saw hostile action during the Philippine Campaign as a crew member of an armored tank destroyer. As such, his vehicle was a prime target, but his luck held. John drove a mule team under contract for the Forest Service, but his primary responsibility was to his family farm and his own growing family. It is said that there wasn’t an acre in the local Los Padres National Forest that didn’t show John’s footprint. An avid sportsman, hunter and fisherman, John was an active member in several organizations which supported conservation and wildlife management. John is predeceased by his father Juan and Mother Ramona, his sister Emma Romero Paluch, ex-wife Joyce Romero and son Joel. He is survived by his daughters Janeen, Jennifer, and Johanna; sons Joseph Romero (Carpinteria) and JB Romero (Coeur d’Alene, Idaho ); grandson Anthony Moreno (Camille); granddaughters Katrina Moreno (Jesus), Jacquelyn Moreno Stroud (Allen), Sierra Ward and Allyssa Romero; and six great-grandchildren. Services will be held at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 30, 2014 at St. Joseph Church, located on El Carro at Linden Ave, Carpinteria. Donations in lieu of flowers to assist in defraying burial expenses can be sent to Bank of America, FTAO John B. Romero, 4994 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria, Calif., 93013.

The author of “The Passionate Vegetable” promotes eating well in order to live well, and on Saturday, May 31 from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., she will share her message and some of her favorite recipes at the Friends of the Library Annual Meeting and Luncheon at the Carpinteria Community Church, 1111 Vallecito Road. Leading up to the luncheon, tickets will be sold for a raffle to benefit the Carpinteria Library’s summer reading program. Prizes are a Cuisinart juicer, an iPad Mini, a Nutri-Bullet and a cooking class and dinner prepared by Landry. Tickets are $5, or three for $10, and can be purchased anytime before May 31 at Sandcastle Time, Pacific Health Food, Carpinteria Farmers Market or the Friends of the Library Used Book Store. Ticket holders need not attend the luncheon to win.
Coastal View News: Please give readers an example or two of how your eating habits have affected your health or that of your loved ones. suzaNNe laNdry: We eliminated dairy out of our diets and virtually have had no colds or flues in over 25 years. We switched to eating whole grains instead of flour products and have seen a difference in our energy and sense of satisfaction. Refined flour products (and whole grain in some cases) can be addictive without helping us feel full. CVN: Spring has sprung and summer’s bounty is almost here. What locally grown, seasonal foods should Carpinterians incorporate into their meals right now? sl: Let nature tell you what you should be eating in season. What’s in season? More fruits, including heirloom tomatoes are coming in. If we eat more seasonally
L’s Salon Hair and Skin Care
CVN: If you were stranded on a desert island and could only choose 10 ingredients to cook with for the rest of your life, what would they be?
Color $55 roots only $50
sl: Salt is essential to life, but I’d be getting plenty of that eating the fish and sea vegetables (seaweed). Cocoa pods so I can make chocolate. Mole fish anyone? ekk. I have to have some veggie and fruit of course. My practical side says that whatever is available on the island as food would be the best because it has adapted to the environment, and I would benefit from that when I ate it. I bet this wasn’t the answer you were looking for.

CVN: Do you have a favorite restaurant in Carpinteria? What do you order there?
Chef Suzanne Landry will speak at the Friends of the Library Annual Meeting on May 31. and what is available locally, it helps us adapt to our weather changes more easily and that means better energy and overall health. CVN: Diet fads come and go. Based on your 30 years as a chef and wellness educator, what are the current diet trends that you endorse and which are the ones you advise against? sl: Boy, are you right about that. I’m old enough to have seen at least a few dozen come and go. Raw food is still pretty popular and of course Gluten Free. Right now Paleo Eating is the latest trend. I don’t endorse any of them for everyone. It depends on a person’s metabolism, lifestyle, condition of health, etc. I encourage my students to figure out what their bodies thrive on and eat more of that, making sure it’s unprocessed. If everyone just ate only what they prepared, we’d have a healthier population.
sl: To get out of the traffic on the freeway, we will slip off for a quick dinner at Zookers. Contrary to what people might think of what chefs eat, we all usually order very simply when we are out and even when we cook for ourselves. I order the grilled veggie salad with chicken— enough leftovers to take home!

Burning questions for the fire district Summerlanders don’t want to think that construction of a new fire station to replace our aging, dilapidated one is dead in the water. But the fireboard’s reluctance to pursue a bond measure is certainly a setback. The prevailing feeling around town right now is a mix of disappointment and puzzlement. Fire Chief Mike Mingee and firefighter Kelly Baker attended last week’s meeting of the Summerland Citizens Associate to provide updates. The chief voiced concerns about the condition of Summerland’s station, which is a train wreck seismically, and the urgency to have it replaced. Firefighter Baker, who is head of the firefighter’s union, provided some historical perspective. Chief Mingee informed the SCA that his latest instruction from the fireboard was to reconvene the 12-person ad hoc committee appointed a few months ago to investigate the station replacement is-

sue. “Too many unanswered questions” is a refrain we keep hearing. Which is a source of our continuing puzzlement. We thought the really big question—the best location for the second station—was answered by the Diamante Public Sector Group, the independent consulting firm hired by the district to vet the issue. Diamante’s report said replace the substandard station and rebuild in another location in Summerland. And secure the chosen building site before it disappears. The report issued by the citizen ad hoc committee reached pretty much the same conclusion as the Diamante Group. Ad hoc committee members reached by Chief Mingee on this second go-round had their own questions. What precisely does the fireboard want them to do? What questions still need to be addressed? Here’s a question raised at the SCA meeting: Why spend money for a study by a consulting firm if you’re going to discount the findings of that study? I checked out this group on the internet. The Diamante Public Sector Group has such a highly burnished reputation they shine. The co-founder took a leave of absence to be Governor Brown’s appointee as Secretary of the California Emergency Management Agency. Diamante Group handled high-profile cases like Hurricane Katrina and the PG&E San Bruno gasline explosion. They kinda know what they’re doing. Hovering like a cloud over last week’s meeting was the notion that station two should be moved out of Summerland and relocated in the Serena-Padaro Lane area. And there seems to be a push, public and private, in that direction. You can imagine how this idea sits with Summerlanders. When I was chair of the SCA way back
when, there was a threat the fire station would close. It resulted in the bestattended, loudest meeting ever. I was glad Kelly Baker was at the SCA meeting to give the firefighters’ perspective. We needed to hear from the guys on the front line. He gave some background on the 85-year-old model the fire district is working with (two stations located where they are). He reiterated the firefighters’ only mission is to save lives and property and said the firefighters stand behind whatever will “enhance service to the entire community.” A dear friend of mine died last year, a retired Carpinteria fireman. Too soon and too young. He was a bona fide hero, the genuine ticket, an all-round good guy, courageous and hard-working. He dealt with situations I don’t even want to think about, people and houses burned up, children drowned, horrible home accidents and sudden deaths. I think firemen should be among the highest paid workers there are because of what they go through to protect us, our lives and homes. They’re our domestic warriors, and they literally go into battle for us. From my viewpoint sitting on top of one of Summerland’s dry hills with a hot wind blowing, I want those guys content and properly housed and equipped. And close.

Questions about Freemasonry?
805-705-3426 • Space is Limited! Jessica@QigongSB.com
Freemasonry is the world’s first and largest fraternal organization, based on the belief that each man has a responsibility to make the world a better place. The fraternity originated in the Middle Ages with stonemasons who built castles and cathedrals, Freemasonry today provides men with opportunities for fellowship, community service, philanthropy and leadership. The Masons of California have more than 62,000 members and about 340 lodges located throughout the state. For more information, visit freemason.org. Carpinteria Lodge 444 • Call 684-4433
which means that it will probably appear as a measure on the November ballot. The Water Guardians submitted 19,098 signatures, and the registrar determined, based on their random scientific sample, that 16,030 were valid. (Lots of people get knocked off because they move, aren’t actually registered voters, write illegibly, forget their addresses or their legal names, etc.) The petition needed around 13,000 valid signatures to qualify. I say probably because the County Board of Supervisors will have decided at their May 20 meeting which course of action to take. (I wrote this before their meeting.) They could 1) order a staff report on the economic and environmental impacts of the initiative; 2) vote the measure into law then and there; or 3) place the measure on the ballot. Since it’s a bit of a hot potato issue, I’m guessing they passed it along for the voters to decide. So look for some interesting pushing and pulling from both sides, with the burners turned to high flame in the run-up to the general election.
Turn out and tune in for “Annie”
Summerland’s all-school production of the musical “Annie” is scheduled to roll out with an evening performance Friday, May 30 at 6 p.m. and a matinee Saturday, May 31 at 1 p.m. Fifty plus costumed kids will be singing their hearts out, trotting on and off stage and otherwise strutting their theatrical stuff. The play will be staged at the Main School auditorium. Tickets ($10 for adults, $5 for children) are available at Curious Cup, from Summerland School or at the door. Silent auction and raffle items will be available after both performances. One big item up for bid is a special Disneyland package. Other items include whale watching tickets, Segway tours, Santa Barbara polo tickets, Sandcastle Time jewelry, Risdon’s car wash and Do It Best vouchers, and many more items donated by Carpinteria and Summerland businesses. To extend the fun, come early on Friday when pizza and drinks are being sold. Or linger after the matinee for cold treats from the McConnell’s ice cream truck. This production is always such a fun and up-beat way to wind down the year! One good thing: Western tanager in the garden, a startling pop of bright red and yellow. Fran Davis is an award-winning writer and freelance editor whose work appears in magazines, print and online journals, anthologies and travel books. She has lived in Summerland most of her life.

Textures and lines in Maddie Joyce’s art resemble where water meets land. Her ocean-influenced art, which will hang at Lucky Llama, 5100 Carpinteria Ave., in June, speaks of an appreciation for the constantly changing coastline, wildlife and organic beauty. According to her bio, Joyce draws “as a way to express her inner child without getting weird looks.” The artist will present her waves, whales and waterfalls during an artist reception on Friday, June 6, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Lucky Llama. The tea-party reception will include live music and vegan food.

RANDY GRAHAM A ploughman is a farmhand. You may already know that a ploughman’s lunch is a cold meal originating in the United Kingdom, commonly served in pubs. Its core components are cheese, pickle and bread. It is traditionally eaten with beer. The dish can also include such items as boiled eggs, ham and pickled onions. As its name suggests, it is more commonly consumed during the lunchtime period. What you probably do not know is that the ploughman’s lunch was invented as a marketing ploy, by the English Cheese and the Milk Marketing Board, to promote the sale of cheese in pubs. A ploughman’s sandwich was served at lunchtime (or at supper) and is an openfaced sandwich containing cheddar cheese, pickle and salad. Here is my springtime version of the perfect ploughman’s sandwich suitable for my ploughman friends. Longtime vegetarian Randy Graham is the author of several cookbooks and a popular food blog. His latest book, “Ojai Valley Vegetarian Cookbook,” is a compilation of 120 of the best recipes from his blog, Ojai Valley Vegetarian. He and his wife, Robin, are retired and live in Ojai with their dog Willow, who is not a vegetarian. See valley-vegetarian.com for more recipes.

Beekeeper Forest Daggett visited Aliso School kindergartners last week to explain the ins and outs of his profession.
Aliso students develop academic language
A white-uniformed beekeeper grabbed the attention of an Aliso School kindergarten class last week and “really brought the subject to life,” according to Principal Holly Minear. The beekeeper, Forest Daggett, explained why members of his profession use smoke on hives to subdue the bees and how rare it is for a beekeeper to see a queen bee behind all of the protection provided by the worker bees. The activity was designed to supplement weekly reader lessons from the previous week and to enable Academic Language Development, an ongoing classroom initiative. Groups meet for 30 minutes per day to increase students’ academic vocabulary and assist in using expressive language skills.

Now, if I can only come up to help you make permanent changes with a training studio/tattoo removal to your life and create fitness-for-life counseling business. mentality.
Tip #1: Socialize with those who possess the same fitness goals as you. In other words, fit folks tend to hang with fit folks. Partiers hang with partiers. Criminals hang with parole officers. OK, maybe not the last one. Tip #2: If you’re a lone warrior, engage your spouse, kids, parents or anyone close to you who will support your goals. If they are not interested in joining the ranks of the lean and supreme, then you’ll likely be in conflict most of the time, like when you want chicken breast and they want pizza. Just remind yourself to be patient and persistent to help them understand the value to living a healthy life. If you stick with it, eventually, they will see your abs and 18-inch arms. Your success will elevate their interest and make them more likely to join you. Tip #3: Part of the success of programs like CrossFit is their ability to build support teams from a shared interest in fitness. If CrossFit isn’t your thing, there are fitness support groups you can join like myFitnessPal.com. These types of groups use virtual social communities to bring people together around fitness. Like most social networking applications, you can post articles and videos and track your progress against those in a peer cohort.
Tip #4: Get involved at work! Most employers with health plans also offer extended fitness programs where doctors participate in your wellness. Participation and progress are often rewarded with lower premiums and expanded coverage. Aside from cost reductions, you benefit because you are supported and encouraged to progress by tracking base metrics that are useful for later comparison. If you’re not sure how to access your employer’s benefits, check with your designated human resources representative. Lastly, use me as an example. I’ve been employing a comprehensive wellness program since I was 20 years old, and even with my Parkinson’s diagnosis, I can say that I continue to make progress. Without this lifestyle, the disease would be winning. Now, I’m the winner, and I welcome you to take the challenge toward a fit, healthy life.

Warriors down Malibu in must-win battle
NEXT WEEK:
Baseball playoffs begin
May 22 - 28, 2014
Extra innings victory puts CHS in playoffs BY ALONZO OROZCO
With temperatures soaring into the 90s during a deadlocked battle for first place in Frontier League, the heat was on in more ways then one for Carpinteria High School baseball on May 15 when it hosted Malibu High School. Needing the win to prolong their season, the Warriors responded with single runs in five of the last six innings to overtake Malibu on their final at bat in extra innings, earning a playoff spot and a five-way tie for first place in front of the home fans with a 5-4 win at John Calderwood Field. Nick Walker’s single through the hole in the bottom of the ninth drove home Duncan Gordon to catapult CHS to the co-Frontier League title. It also took a little luck to land the Warriors a playoff spot from among the five squads that remained in the cluttered deadlock at the top of league. Of the six teams in Frontier League, five finished with 6-4 records. The Warriors benefited from the luck of the draw and having their name drawn out of a hat for an automatic playoff spot and the third seed. The other teams had play-in games to determine their collective fates. Santa Clara shut out Fillmore 6-0 and Malibu edged Santa Paula 4-3 the following day with the winners advancing to playoffs. For a while, it looked as though the Warriors would squander their good fortune as the visiting Sharks built a 3-1 lead through the first four innings, in part due to some miscues in the field. “The guys were stressed out at the beginning; you could tell there was something a little different about the way we were approaching things,” explained War-
Warrior track hosts prelims
Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium ended its run of big meets for the 2014 season with the CIF Prelims on May 17. Hundreds of athletes competed for entry in the CIF Finals next weekend. For the Warriors, only Peter Ramos, who threw the discus 134-07 for seventh place, made the cut. Coach Van Latham called the achievement a “pleasant surprise” for the senior who has been battling a knee problem. Brooke Hymer will be an alternate in the pole vault after a 10th place finish. Joel Montes and Gabriel ZapienYbarra also competed for the Warriors.
rior coach Pat Cooney. Malibu starting pitcher Andre Simoneau contributed to their problems by striking out six Warriors in 4 2/3rd innings. But Warrior starter Mo Sanchez was also effective, picking up four strikeouts of his own and keeping his team in the game, getting some key outs when needed. He also got some defensive help in the fourth inning when second baseman Javier Jasso made a diving stab of a hard one-hopper off the bat of the Sharks’ Declan Sheridan with runners on first and second to keep the score 3-0 at the time. CHS finally got on the board in the bottom of the fourth when Isaiah Sosa’s single drove home Kevin Stein. The Warriors added single runs in the fifth and sixth but still found themselves down 4-3 with two outs in the bottom of the seventh, facing what could have been their final at bat of the season. Stein calmly singled to center and went to third on a botched pickoff attempt. Salvador Delgado then singled him in to send the game into extra innings at 4-4. Benefiting from solid relief work from Delgado and Walker, the Warriors entered the bottom of the ninth still tied at four. Gordon drew a walk to start the inning, and Stein singled him to second for his fourth hit of the game. Gordon went to third on a force play, which would lead to Walker’s walk-off single and a Frontier League title. The Warriors finished 11-11 overall and 6-4 in league and will travel to Windward High School to play the Wildcats of the Delphic League on Thursday, May 22.

Cate baseball player Nick Pajouh belted a homerun but the team came up short in its battle for the Frontier League championship against Dunn School.
Cate falls in Condor Championship In a battle for the Condor League crown in Los Olivos, Cate School lost 7-2 to Dunn School after having beaten the Earwigs earlier in the season. The Rams jumped out to a 2-0 lead following an RBI groundout by Carlos Fairbanks in the first inning and a solo homerun from Nick Pajouh in the fourth. From there, however, the Rams offense went quiet. Despite knocking seven hits on the afternoon, Cate wasn’t able to score again due to some quality Dunn pitching and timely defense. Pajouh led the way for the Rams at the plate, going 2-for-3. Humza Khurshid, Fairbanks, Zach Ell, Chris Oh and Joel Revo all tallied hits. Fairbanks got the start at pitcher for the Rams and held a potent Dunn offense
hitless until the fourth inning. The Earwigs broke it open with a five-run fifth inning. Fairbanks was relieved by Khurshid in the fifth, and the junior righthander battled through the Los Olivos heat. The Ram defense did not commit an error and benefited from handy glovework by Oh and Dean Smith, according to assistant coach Dave Soto. “The unfortunate news is that we came in second place in our league. The fortunate news is that we still have a chance to make some noise in the CIF Playoffs. I think we played well against a very good Dunn team, and most importantly, represented our school very well in an emotional game,” commented Soto.

Cate School
May 19 – Cate baseball ended its regular season with a 4-3 loss in Glendale against St. Monica Academy. Nik Pajouh continued his hot hitting with a double on the afternoon. Humza Khurshid scored two of Cate’s runs, and Zach Ell had an RBI in the game. The Rams were down 4-1 going into the seventh inning and scored twice thanks to a bases loaded walk and a St. Monica error. However, that was all the Rams could muster and the rally fell short. Joel Revo pitched a solid four innings. After giving up a run in the first, the left-handed freshman settled down and kept firing up zeros. Once he ran out of gas, Khurshid relieved him and limited the damage. Nonetheless, a three-run St. Monica fifth doomed the Rams. The Rams finish the season second in the Condor League and ranked 10th in the CIF SS Division 7 rankings.
Swimming
May 15 – Cate swimmers competed at the CIF Division 3 Finals and saw three new school records set. Zack Allen, a junior, finished in second place in the 200 freestyle and set the school mark at 1:43.1. He also notched a school record, 52.12 seconds, with a fifth-place finish in the 100 butterfly.

During the 2014 season the Cate Rams broke a combined nine school records and posted a record number of CIF entries in Division 3. In all, the Rams sent nine swimmers to finals, also including, Sophia Soriano, Anna Satterfield, Lydia Stevens, Halie Straathoff.

A reader sends a halo to the person or worker who turned in her purse at Taco Bell. “I am very grateful. Muchas gracias.” A reader sends a halo to Jay Bird and Nick at the fire department for a super firehouse tour. “We buckaroos had a great time!” A reader sends a halo to the sister team of Julie Erven and Darlene Keith and their families, who set up and took down the Saturday Rummage Sale at Vista de Santa Barbara. A reader sends a pitchfork to the person who stole valuable tools and grommets for repairing/replacing plastic webbing on chairs. A reader sends a pitchfork to whoever is responsible for the hideous sound walls at Mussel Shoals. “I can’t believe the Coastal Commission, or anyone with respect to the views of this beautiful coastline, would allow that. Watch out, Montecito!” A reader sends a pitchfork to the man operating a business at the beach. “If the attitude that he presented on the morning of May 16 is an indication of a ‘Carpinteria Welcome’ then we are truly in trouble. Yelling and not listening or being patient is not the way to get things done, especially trying to confront a crowd.” A reader sends a pitchfork to the customer who got upset with the clerk at the post office because the clerk could not read the customer’s handwriting for a money order purchase. “After the purchase, the customer walked away making rude comments.” A reader sends a pitchfork to a local business that plays really loud music that can be heard crystal clear down the street. “It was really distracting.” A reader sends a pitchfork to a grocery store customer service representative. “I waited at least five minutes for you to show up to the customer service desk. When you did, you were very rude. It’s such a shame because every other employee I encountered was friendly and helpful.” A reader sends a pitchfork to people who are wasting our most precious resource, water, on lawns. “Whether or not El Niño conditions bring water this winter, it’s time to live differently for the long-term. Stop watering your lawns, and when they die, plant responsibly. It’s the right thing to do.” A reader sends a pitchfork to local parents who are enabling their adult child with their drug addiction. “Take it from me, it is only making things worse. Stop blaming other people and take a look at the real problem.” A reader sends a pitchfork to the thieves who took the bear carving from the Karma Garden on Santa Claus Lane. “You have stolen from the community and diminished your souls.” A reader sends a pitchfork to the avocado growers who get a free ride at their neighbor’s expense by not bringing in their own bees for pollination. “If everyone placed hives in their orchard, everyone would have more fruit. Avocados don’t self-pollinate.”

Boys & Girls Club auction rakes in $87K for kids
Photos by Robin Karlsson
the big bucks raised by the 30th annual Boys & Girls Club Auction will benefit scores of local children, and, as a bonus, the May 17 auction left its attendees with a memorable evening of good food with good friends. “this being my second year at the helm of the auction, it always humbles and amazes me how much of a community Carpinteria truly is,” said unit Director Jamie Collins. “We had over 300 attendees, from parent volunteers, to major donors. it is the one time a year we can get everyone together to show off the great programs and amazing youth we serve daily.” Wallets at the event opened to the tune of $87,000, reported Collins, but funds raised fell a bit shy of expectations. the club will have to continue working to raise the last $13,000 to reach its $100,000 goal, of which $20,000 is earmarked for a new playground. Anyone interested in donating toward the Coastal View News • Tel: (805) 684-4428 effort, should contact the club at 684-1568.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California
Don’t have to go far
I slid my powder blue standup paddleboard into the glassy 50-something degree water and quickly paddled west hugging the deserted shoreline. A lone harbor seal popped up ahead of me, blew some bubbles, snorted and then bashed a flipper on the surface of the water, breaking an otherwise silent sea. My vantage point also gave me a unique perspective of a marine mammal known more for being inch worm-like on land, yet so balletic under the water. I continued paddling a couple of miles up the coast where I found a dribbly, little sandbar where I stroked into a handful of fun waist-high right-handers. I surfed until the incoming high tide had nearly peaked and then paddled eastward, a light northwesterly breeze at my back. I ducked into a coastal estuary where the rush of the ocean slowed to a crawl. The mouth of the estuary was alive, and the ebb and flow of the incoming tide was crowded with bottom feeders. Hordes of leopard sharks darted back and forth beneath my standup in a feeding frenzy. Farther along, I came across a cacophony of elegant terns, at least 200 of the seabirds squabbling, swooping and preening on the warm hard-packed sandbar. It seemed like every couple of minutes something would cause most of them to take flight, their creamy white feathers a work of art fluttering in the unseasonably dry air. Joining them were several western gulls basking in the sun along with a few California brown pelicans posturing with their long necks and scissor-like beaks. The estuary was a salty carpet of multi-colored pickleweed and a maze of narrow channels snaking their way across the reserve. With the incoming tide I was able to negotiate a twisting channel not much wider than my standup paddleboard. The pickleweed was about waist-to-chest-high so I could see over the top as I paddled with ease. Beneath me were massive schools of tiny fish scurrying up the channel and defensive coastal crabs with their pinchers at the ready hunkered down in muddy alcoves. Several elegant snowy egrets congregated in the middle of the marsh opening their

unpredictable wilderness wings to cool themselves. A breeding pair of long-billed curlews roosted on top of a piece of bleached driftwood, using their distinct curved bills to forage in the pickleweed. Silence was broken by a solitary green heron that squawked from channel to channel as I stroked across the marsh. Eventually it flew off, instantly camouflaged by the sea of pickleweed. On my return to the ocean I paddled against the increasing tide where current was swirling at each intersection. At the mouth of the estuary I punched through several small waves, the remnants of a southerly pulse still evident in the surf pushing west up the beach. Once outside the breaking waves I paddled eastward riding a few weak, crumbling waves to shore. Then there was a loud clap on the surface of the water 50 yards to the south. Immediately following the disturbance were several spouts in unison. After spotting the small pod of coastal bottlenose dolphins I paddled toward them. I stayed at least 30 yards away, but they sensed my presence and before I knew it they surrounded me as I watched them maneuver beneath my board. Two of them performed pirouettes beneath my standup. The other dolphins moved so close to me I could’ve reached out and touched their sleek, leather-like hides. I noticed they were all scratched up from jostling with each other and maybe other pods. The two largest dolphins, at least 10-feet-long, had rips in their dorsal fins, and one of them was missing its tip. There were several amazing occasions where they stopped swimming as if suspended in animation, just floating beneath the surface of the water next to me. When they rolled on their sides their white underbellies were brighter, reflecting in the sun. I followed the friendly, accommodating pod for just over a mile and then I let them go. I could feel the northwesterly winds kicking up, my cue to turnaround and head back to where I started. I was grateful for my nature fix as I stepped off onto the wet sand.
Preening for the crowd, an elegant tern takes a break from foraging along the ocean’s edge.

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery? The following counts taken from May 4 through 17 were compiled from Carpinteria Seal Watch volunteer reports. Carpinteria harbor seal beach closure runs from Dec. 1 to June 1 each year. Seal Watch volunteers are still welcome to sign up by calling 684-2247.
High Adult Count
Visitors
336
High Pup Count
No recent births.
Volunteers counted 1,967 people; the heat wave kept many away. Viewers came from China, Israel, the Netherlands, Canada, Mexico, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Bolivia, Michigan, North Carolina, Louisiana, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, Washington and Washington D.C.
Disturbances
The seals fled to the ocean when scared by oil industry work four times, by kayakers twice, and by a paddle boarder, beachwalker, car at the pier turnaround, fishing boat, jet ski and by unusual vibration from a passing train.
Natural History Notes
Visitors will not see the seals as readily on nice summer days when the ` city ordinance closing the beach ends June 1. Harbor seals do not migrate; they are a local population and if undisturbed would be on the beach all year. However, when people start walking on the beach in June, repeatedly scaring the seals into the ocean, the seals learn their rest will be disturbed. Although the first beach walkers who disturb the seals are violating the federal Marine Mammal Protection Act, later beachwalkers might be unaware or think they are having no effect. Since harbor seals need to rest on land about 50 percent of the time, they try to find alternate locations during the day, which are limited in our area, and repopulate the beach at night.
A harbor seal head breaks the glassy ocean surface. Pickleweed, which stores salt in its red tips, features prominently in coastal wetlands.
More Info
The Carpinteria harbor seal rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach. Please remember not to bring dogs, bicycles or loud voices to view the seals. Harbor seals, when disturbed, may flee and become separated from their pups. Volunteers ask that dogs remain outside the rope area at all times. Call 684-2247 or email CarpSealWatch@gmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.

Riley puts CVN to snowy test
On a trip to the Chugach Mountains, Carpinterian Chris Riley, right, carried Coastal View News to the snowiest locale it has ever reached. In fact, the Chugach, an Alaskan mountain range stretching 250 miles around the rim of the Gulf of Alaska, is the snowiest place on earth, receiving an average annual snowfall of 600 inches. Riley is pictured with radio host and X Games emcee Brad J, near Valdez, Alaska. The snowboarders dropped into their runs from helicopters and snowcats.
