State of Community: Economic rebound spurs optimism
This week’s listings on the back page
Flower power
By PeTer DUGré
The economy never roared back to life, but its vital signs are finally restored. At the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce State of the Community Breakfast on April 29, community leaders forecast an array of public and private projects from bridges to hotels at a scale that will alter the look of Carpinteria in the near future. Many agreed that the challenge is striking a balance between business investment in the city and the goal of retaining the essential character of Carpinteria. Addressing the prospect of new development in Carpinteria as business investors begin to see opportunities in a rebounded economy, Mayor Brad Stein said, “When a company comes in, we’re not just a place to invest your money and build here.” He continued, “We know you can make money here, but how will the community as a whole benefit?” He said one of the city’s roles is to evaluate development plans with that question in mind. In addition to the Linden-Casitas Interchange Project, which will replace both the Linden Avenue and Casitas Pass Road freeway overpasses as well as punch Via Real through from Highway 150 to Casitas Pass Road, many other public works projects are slated to begin within a handful of years. The city hopes to install paths connecting Santa Claus Lane and Rincon Point to Carpinteria, and it must decide how to develop the newly acquired railroad property near the train station. Private development projects mentioned at the meeting by a combination of Stein and fellow presenter City Manager Dave Durflinger included four hotels in varying stages of planning. Developers are hoping to build two hotels on 4110 Via Real and two more at the Thunderbowl property at the eastern end of the Carpinteria Bluffs. Also, a new mixed-use building is approved at the corner of Holly and Carpinteria avenues. Durflinger, who has grappled with balancing the city’s budget in lean years, said currently there’s “a great capacity for growth in the community,” but also, “It’s a balancing act to keep what’s great about Carpinteria while taking advantage of opportunities.” one of the greatest challenges facing the city is aging infrastructure, Durflinger commented. He said, “This city grew up in the ’60s and ’70s really, and a lot of this subdivision ... curbs, gutters, sidewalks, street trees, all of that is aging together and is getting to the point where it needs to be rebuilt. We need to invest a lot more than we’ve been able to invest historically.” He commented that the issue is not unique to city facilities, as both the fire and school districts have been seeking

Fulfilling needs
Carpinteria seniors find compassion through lunch program By KATeri Wozny
Every day at lunchtime, Carpinteria resident Gonzano Soto, a fixed income senior, comes to eat his healthy meal at the Veterans Hall and see some familiar smiling faces. “I have been coming for the past three years because I need to eat,” he said. “The staff here is nice, and I have also made many friends who are going through the same things I am.” Soto, 79, is just one of 20 senior residents who participate in the Healthy Senior Lunch Program. Launched in the early 1980s, the local program gives seniors over 60 the opportunity to eat Monday through Friday between noon and 12:30 p.m. The Community Action Commission of Santa Barbara County helps serve 10 sites and a total of about 1,600 seniors throughout the county. CAC has used the Veterans Hall to help serve meals to Carpinteria seniors for the past 10 years. According to a survey report from the Central Coast Commission for Senior Citizens, the number one need for seniors with the lowest incomes and physical impairments is meals and food.

briefly Carpinteria sees substantial crime rate drop
A report by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office indicates that crime in Carpinteria dropped significantly between 2012 and 2013. Crimes that involve force or threat of force fell by 12 percent, while the city saw an 11 percent decrease in crimes such as forgery, fraud, embezzlement, possession of stolen property, weapons violations, simple assaults, vandalism, prostitution, offenses against family/children and sex offenses. Overall, the SB Sheriff’s Office saw a 6 percent decrease in crime throughout its territory, which is comprised of the county’s unincorporated areas and the contract cities of Buellton, Carpinteria, Goleta and Solvang. Violent crimes are down 45 percent from what they were 30 years ago, according to the report.
Montecito YMCA promotes new ED
Michael Yamasaki was recently promoted to the role of executive director at the Montecito Family YMCA. Yamasaki started with the Montecito YMCA in 2010 as Associate Executive Director and was honored in 2012 as the Channel Islands YMCA Director of the Year. Under his leadership, the Montecito Y received the 2013 Mayor’s Award for Non-Profits. He helped to establish the flagship LiveSTRONG at the YMCA cancer survivor program, which has since followed in other branches of the Channel Islands YMCA. “I am thrilled to be a part of such a wonderful organization,” Yamasaki commented. “The YMCA is for Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility. These areas of focus perfectly align with my life long passions.”

FEMA decision sets back interchange project BY CAT NEUSHUL AND LEA BOYD
Carpinteria City Council members learned of a new and substantial bump in the road to getting the $75 million Linden Avenue and Casitas Pass Road Interchange Project built. At the council’s April 28 meeting, Public Works Director Charlie Ebeling provided an update on the project, including the news that the Federal Emergency Management Agency has rejected existing plans for Highway 101 replacement bridges over Carpinteria Creek. The need to rework plans has already set back the project by six months, from a 2015 start to a 2016 start. However, Ebeling made it clear that a solution to the problem has not been found, and delays could continue to mount. “Whatever solution we find may have a greater effect on the schedule,” he told the council. Plans to raise bridge heights, thus returning the creek to its historic flow pattern, were deemed unacceptable by FEMA due to the resulting addition of new homes to the floodplain. At the existing height, the bridges would act as barriers in a 100-year flood, diverting water west along the freeway to merge with Franklin Creek floodwaters. Currently, the bridges place hundreds of downtown Carpinteria homes in the floodplain. By raising the bridge heights, these homes would be removed from the floodplain, but about 20 to 30 homes downstream, in the 6th and 8th streets area, would be added to the floodplain or have their flood risk rise, a change that fails to meet federal regulations.
9th Street footbridge out for bid
The city council voted unanimously to advertise for bids for the 9th Street Bridge Pedestrian Replacement Project. The public works department closed the bridge in 2013 after finding it unsound. Though it was repaired and reopened temporarily, the city has plans to replace the bridge with one similar to the Mission Terrace Pedestrian Bridge over Franklin Channel. The city council authorized the public works director to advertise for a bid for the $105,000 project, which is being funded through a Measure A Safe Routes to School grant. Mayor Brad Stein said, in support of the project, “Let’s move forward on the 9th Street Bridge and get it built.

Ozone system coming to a pool near you
Another issue close to locals’ hearts, the purchase of an ozone system for the Carpinteria Community Pool, was discussed and unanimously approved by city council members. Parks and Recreation Director Matt Roberts said that the system would save money, be consistent with Carpinteria’s sustainability goals, and be a draw for county residents. Roberts said that the $64,625 ozone system will have

many benefits. He estimated that the city could save as much as $4,000 on chemical expenditures a year, and draw more people to the pool. Most pools in the area, except those at UCSB, use chemicals to disinfect pool water. The chemicals can be eye irritants and cause allergic reactions. Roberts said the ozone system would provide the necessary disinfection and reduce the need for chemicals to a very low level. He said that the system could be in place in six weeks. Both city council members and local residents expressed support for the purchase of the ozone system. Beth Thomas, an aqua aerobics instructor who uses the community pool, said, “I get really tired of smelling like chlorine.” She added, “I believe this will increase pool membership.

Wearin’ o’ the blue
I’ve been wearing a turquoise T-shirt lately, not a color I’m naturally drawn to, but for a worthy cause I’ll put it on. You’ve probably seen those Blue Shirts around. They call themselves the Santa Barbara Water Guardians, and for all of April they were strolling the streets carrying clipboards and petitions for voters to sign. Their goal is get a fracking ban (called the Healthy Air and Water Initiative to Ban Fracking in SB County) on the Santa Barbara County ballot in November. So I was gathering signatures, too, filling my quota, a packet of 100. Let me just say up front: I think the question of fracking should be put out there for the general public to discuss, debate and decide on. Fracking, short for hydraulic fracturing, is a relatively recent oil extraction method, and not much is known about its long-term impacts on air and water. Bringing the matter up for a county-wide vote will stimulate discussion and help to better educate us all. It’s a way to learn about it, talk about it, vet it through our thoroughly American democratic process. I found that people I approached were mostly really nice, whether they wanted to sign the petition or not. “What’s fracking?” some asked. That’s another reason—maybe the main one—to bring on the big educational debate. It’s a dialog we really need to have because large parts of our county lie on oil-rich shale. More than 7,000 new fracking wells are planned for the Santa Maria Valley. From a strictly geological perspective, we could just as easily have them here, as well. Our shale has oil, too. Certainly Summerland does. It comes oozing out on our beach pretty much year-round.
Summerland SCA supports fracking ban petition
The Summerland Citizens Association at its April meeting voted to take a position in support of the fracking ban initiative. Summerland has a long history with oil drilling and is plagued by the leftovers of that early industry. Oil and tar still coat big portions of our beach, and some days the heady smell of petroleum wafted in by the ocean breeze is enough to make a person see double. You might say the community has had it with oil, so it’s no wonder the SCA supports the initiative.
Probably not in our backyard
Pretty much the whole South Coast sits on oil rich shale, so there’s been some concern that fracking could come to a neighborhood nearby. Plus, none of us own the mineral rights under our houses, so it’s conceivable an oil company could buy those rights, do a slant drill and stick a straw under a house to suck up the deep-down stuff. They actually do that in Long Beach. People have oil wells in their backyards. I learned about Long Beach from a guy I talked to at Fidelity National Title Insurance in Santa Barbara. I called looking for information about how oil and mineral rights were actually secured. They don’t really do those kinds of title searches in his office, he said. (A company called Petru in Ventura does that. They know
the trends and where to search for oil and mineral leases, e.g., which old oil field, like the ones in the Santa Maria basin and Cat Canyon, might be growing hot again.) The Fidelity guy even looked up our property and determined that there was no oil or mineral exception on the grant deed. Meaning previous owners had not retained any rights. Whew. That was a relief. I had visions of derricks on the big empty parcel behind Whitney Ave., the land beneath my feet rumbling with each fracking jolt into shale, bituminous odors wafting in our windows. Such a scenario was not likely to play out, Fidelity man assured me. The county just wouldn’t let that kind of industry get that close to a residential area. He did wonder if those same restrictions would apply to remoter areas on the South Coast; however, say up one of our many canyons. He thought it might be interesting to pursue the matter with the county’s zoning department. Anybody got a canyon they need fracked?
Summerland’s little school acts big
Every year the kids, teachers and parents of Summerland School come together to launch a grand enterprise—an allschool production of a musical play. This year’s choice is “Annie,” and it will be staged in the auditorium at Main School on Friday, May 30 at 6 p.m., with a matinee the following day, May 31 at 1 p.m. Laezer Schlomkovitz of the Children’s Creative Project is once again directing, assisted by Armando Ramos, Summerland School’s shape-shifting jack of all trades, who will be handling much of the theatrical support, like sound and lighting. “Annie,” as many will remember, is the Little Orphan Annie story turned into a Broadway musical. According to Anna Bradley, chair of the event, the kids are heavily into rehearsal, and “they are loving it.” All 57 of them, from the kindergartners to the fifth-graders. Every single kid gets his/ her time on stage, reciting, singing, dancing or all three. Some of the tunes to be featured are “Tomorrow,” “Maybe,” and “Hard Knock Life,” with the addition, according to Anna, of a new, more modern song yet to be revealed. The arts-for-everyone production would not be possible without a huge parental commitment. “Parents make it happen,” Anna says. In addition to raising money, they do the behind-the-scenes grunt work, making costumes and scenery, herding kids on and off stage, and securing raffle and silent auction items. (Both performances will be followed by a silent auction and raffle.) Money raised will go toward paying for the production, and supporting the school’s drama, music, poetry and P.E. programs, among others. Tickets go on sale mid-May at Curious Cup Bookstore. I try never to miss one of these performances. They’re so full of joyful kid energy and bravado it warms the heart. One good thing: Jacaranda trees in bloom, purple umbrellas dripping violet blossoms. 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.

Santa Barbara Jail Facts An Investigative Website
www.sbjailfacts.info Research by Russell Trenholme and Others
BASIC FACTS ABOUT THE PROPOSED NEW JAIL 1. We don't need a new jail. The existing jail is more than large enough if it wasn't being filled with more than 70% of its average daily population with arrested persons awaiting trial. As crime declined and the sentenced prisoner court declined Sheriff Bill Brown who is obsessed with building a new jail, has overcrowded it with more and more pretrial defendants to create the appearance of an overcrowding crisis. There was a crisis--twenty years ago before crime and the number of sentenced prisoners started dropping (and kept on dropping). This has been a phony issue for over ten years, but those who stand to profit from a jail have run a successful disinformation campaign that may destroy the County's budget. 2. Under Sheriff Bill Brown the ballooning incarceration of pretrial defendants has cost us over $100 million extra. Not only is a new jail unnecessary and unjust to defendants locked up merely because they are charged with crimes, but it is very expensive.

The county of Santa Barbara derives its wealth from agriculture and tourism, not oil.
––Mary Jo Yaeger
SCA endorses antifracking initiative
At its April meeting, the board of the Summerland Citizens Association voted to endorse the initiative to ban HighIntensity Petroleum Operations currently being circulated in Santa Barbara County. As the site of the first offshore oil drilling operations in the Western Hemisphere, our community has a long and problematic history with oil and its extraction. Our beach is still polluted with residue of this early extraction, and our town is pockmarked with abandoned wells and old bore holes. Summerland also sits on oil-rich shale, and we have special concerns about efforts to extract shale oil using enhanced recovery operations, such as fracking, steam injections and acid well stimulation. We believe such methods pose threats to both our air and our limited water supply. The county of Santa Barbara derives its wealth from agriculture and tourism, not oil. While Summerland was once an oil town, it is now a charming seaside village with thriving downtown businesses that depend on tourism. We support the initiative as being in the best interest of our community and the county as a whole.

Take the President’s word on racism
On Jan. 21, I got a response from the White House regarding my concerns about racism in America. Racism that is part of the past, present and will be part of the future. People should be considered as one race and embrace each other. President Obama referred to Donald Sterling as “ignorant.” Sterling should read my response from Obama, which I quote parts of: “Thank you for writing. Many Americans have shared their thoughts about unfair treatment and discrimination with me, and I appreciate your perspective.

Maintenance needs, and the costs therein, have outpaced revenue generation, and the city is currently evaluating ways to adjust its flat fee structure to meet costs that have risen over decades of inflation. Durflinger held out hope that the 20132014 city general fund budget could end the fiscal year balanced at the end of June. The city’s adopted budget allotted nearly $200,000 in spending from reserves, but midyear projections show that tapping into reserves might not be necessary.

Carpinteria Valley Water District
Steering away from the topic of monetary resources, Carpinteria Valley Water District General Manager Charles Hamilton and Boardmember Polly Holcombe presented on the scarce state of the liquid resource. After leading the audience in a short rain dance, the presenters said that Carpinteria can be modestly relieved about relatively plentiful groundwater stores and current district efforts to tap those; however, as of Oct. 1, the district’s primary source of water, Cachuma Lake, will likely taper its flow by 50 percent. They suggested that customers begin taking action to conserve water and that CVWD boardmembers have begun discussing rate plans that provide incentives for water conservation. Regardless of whether sufficient rains fall to end the drought, Holcombe said the conservation conversation will not end. “Rains may come in next year, but we’re in a new norm now, and we have to start thinking in the long term,” Holcombe said.

Mayor Brad Stein addressed the need to balance looming development and the essential character of Carpinteria at the 2014 State of the Community Breakfast on April 29 at Rincon Beach Club. numbers are misleading due to a reduction in workforce participation, which has dipped to 1980s levels, he said. Carpinteria’s unemployment rate is “historically low,” he said, at 3.3 percent, far below state and national figures. The city has seen the largest employment growth in the information and technology sector, but IT remains a small player compared to the agricultural sector, which accounts for 15.7 percent of the local economy, the biggest slice of the pie.
Santa Barbara County
First District Supervisor Salud Carbajal had similar comments to city officials about the need to balance industry in
a recovering economy with protecting natural resources. He said that while the debate over development continues it’s important to understand what makes this area valuable. “At the end of the day, you either live in Bakersfield, you live in orange County or you live in Santa Barbara County,” he said. Carbajal said the county has designed a project to improve beach access and parking on Santa Claus Lane, which lies in unincorporated county territory, and will work to fund and permit the improvements in the next couple years. Also, he said improvements to Toro Canyon Park and the Rincon Hill Road Bridge are in the works.

SENIOR LUNCHES: Continued from page 1
“The Healthy Senior Lunch Program recognizes that isolation is a serious problem for seniors and it is very important to their overall well being that they have opportunities to socialize,” said Todd Kelly, CAC Nutrition Services director. Seniors have the opportunity to make new friends and engage in recreational activities such as bingo, holiday and once a month birthday celebrations. Geraldine Ortega, Healthy Senior Lunch Program site host at the Veterans Hall for the past six years, loves helping her community. “It makes me feel good. I throw big birthday parties with a huge cake and even give (participants) presents from the Unity Shoppe during Christmas,” she said. “Everyone is very appreciative. They need to have a place to go to have a nutritious meal, interact with others and have fun.” Ortega says some familiar faces come by daily, such as Lorenzo and Rosie Martinez, who have been visiting for 15 years. She even watched a love story unfold between Gene and Kay Arndt, who now live on the East Coast. The oldest man to attend, Lee Talbert, passed away in November at age 100. “He was a nice man who owned his own ranch and did a lot of storytelling. He was a beautiful soul,” Ortega said. The Healthy Senior Lunch Program is funded through the Area Agency on Aging based on meals served, donations and municipalities. Even though the funds
from municipalities are decreasing and the cost of food, fuel and staff are increasing, the program is still functional. The CAC asks for a $3 contribution per meal, though the average donation is 80 cents per meal. This disparity adds to the challenges in funding the program. “The need for this program is high, and CAC will assure that any senior over 60 will be served with a well-balanced meal regardless of income” Kelly said. According to Kelly, meals served by the program must provide at least one-third of the recommended daily dietary allowance, in accordance with federal Elderly Nutrition Program guidelines. The local AAA dietician reviews the program menu bi-annually and also conducts an annual audit. CAC prepares all of the meals from scratch at its south county kitchen, where an emphasis is placed on using fresh, locally grown produce. Lunch menus are posted monthly on the CAC’s website and offer a variety of entrees, including beef, fish, pork, tacos and turkey. Even Crushcakes pitches in by delivering cupcakes on Wednesdays. Ortega says the most popular meals are chicken and sweet potatoes. Mary Stanhope, 62, said, “I’ve been coming here for two-and-a-half years. I like most of the meals but the chicken cordon bleu is my absolute favorite.” For those who can’t get to the Veterans
Jane Hadley and Armin Soll enjoy a healthy lunch at the Veterans Hall on April 28. Hall, meals through the CAC’s Healthy at Home program are also home-delivered to 20 disabled Carpinteria seniors five days a week, with an additional two frozen meals being delivered on Friday to be used for the weekend. If a senior needs a microwave or a stove in order to heat these meals, CAC Energy Services help provide the appliances to seniors who qualify by income. “delivery drivers are trained to do much more than deliver meals. They check on the welfare of elders and provide important daily socialization. They are often the only human contact that homebound seniors have all day,” Kelly said.
The University of Southern California’s School of Public Policy demographers say the number of seniors in the state is projected to grow over the next 20 years at four times the pace of the past two decades. By 2030, California will be home to 4 million more residents over 65, pushing the number of seniors to 18.5 percent of the state’s total population. “The CAC is committed to keep the Healthy Table Program (Healthy Senior Lunch Program and Healthy at Home Program) in Carpinteria going for years to come, while continuing to raise funding awareness to supplement its program participants and bring more activities to the seniors,” Kelly said.

Jailed man victimized
A deputy trying to track down the owner of a found wallet received the cold shoulder on April 15 until he mentioned there was money in it. He tracked the owner of the wallet to a 9th Street address, but the resident there said the man had moved to a separate 9th Street residence. The occupant there also claimed that the
A man reported that his landscaping tools had gone missing and that his employee, whose family has a separate landscaping business, was a likely culprit. He said the tools vanished from his truck overnight between April 19 and 20, and the thieves targeted the more expensive items, totaling $3,000. The victim told deputies he’d had a conversation with the employee, 20, and found he was behaving suspiciously. Under the pretense of informing the employee that they would not be able to work without the missing tools, the victim offhandedly mentioned that he had surveillance footage of the heist, which was not the case. The employee reportedly became squeamish and stuttered when learning of the footage. Later in the day, the victim met face-toface with the employee. The victim laid a guilt trip on him, stating how he wished they could work, and the employee
Fourteen years of bad luck
Deputies received a call about a man who reportedlyTRAVELTEN90.COM was prone to severing side view mirrors from vehicles near Bailard Avenue on the evening of April 22. Residents in the area had been alarmed by a loud noise at around 1:30 a.m., and they walked outside to investigate. The passenger side mirror of their vehicle was lying in the roadway. They spotted a suspicious figure in the night, a 21-year-old man, and followed him as he reportedly dislodged a mirror from a second vehicle. Deputies arrived to detain the man, who, for his part, said he may have stumbled into a couple of vehicles. Deputies found him to be intoxicated and arrested him for public intoxication and vandalism.

A man who had been sent up the river for 19 months reported on April 9 that a former roommate had robbed him blind when he was locked up. The man accused a 49-year-old roommate of squatting in his place and robbing him of $50,000 worth of belongings. He could not provide evidence but said he just knew. Also, he said there had been three men residing at his rental unit while he was in jail, although none of them were on the lease. They did pay the rent. The deputy taking the report said the hunch was not enough to make an arrest. To build a case, the deputy asked for the man to produce a list of missing items, but a week passed and the deputy still had not seen the inventory sheet.

Amrit Joy’s Hints for Healthy & Happy Living Another way to “let go”
Sit in a comfortable position, spine straight and firm, yet comfortable. Take a few long, deep, letting-go breaths. Allow your mind to quiet and slow down. Rest your hands in your lap and place one on top of the other, making a little cup. In these hands, place whatever is going on for you now. Whatever you are challenged by, whatever you are trying to figure out, whatever lesson is up for you. Maybe it’s your body, maybe your mind, maybe your spirit. Maybe it’s you with you or you with another. As you gently imagine placing this in your hands, envision taking a half a step back and just observing. This way you can respond, rather than react. Allow for the wisdom and transformation that can happen to you. As you place the love energy around this lesson, just deep breathe. Embrace the opportunity that you are given to grow and expand. Sit like this until you feel lighter, more peaceful and serene. Amrit Joy is a certified Hatha and Kundalini Yoga instructor. She has been practicing and teaching yoga since 1976. Amrit offers ongoing group yoga classes open to all levels here in Carpinteria. Private instruction in yoga and meditation is also available by appointment.

Warrior tennis picks up season sweep over Bishop
An 11-7 Warrior boys tennis victory over Bishop Diego High School on April 28 demonstrated that the team has multiple tricks up its sleeves. The Warriors had already taken down the Cardinals by an identical score earlier in the season, but this time around coach Charles Bryant said the lineup was completely different. “Two months ago we stacked our doubles, but this time we played them straight up and the final score was actually the same, which tells me we have had a lot of improvement and confidence in both our singles and doubles games,” commented Bryant. Picking up points for the Warriors were doubles squad Bryan Taira/Ruben Andrade who swept their three sets, including a comeback victory in the second round of play that altered the complexion of the match, giving the Warriors an 8-4 advantage. Doubles teams Sean Welty/Jacob Ascencio and Ricky Zermeno/Collin Nathanson both won 2-of-3 sets. In singles, Ben Murray, who went 2-1 on the day, had “the most important win of the day,” according to Bryant. He posted a steady win over Cardinal Matt Hammond in the first round of play to set the Warriors up for a 4-2 advantage rather than a 3-3 count through the first six sets. The nonleague match was the final of the season for the Warriors, who finished 8-12 overall and 2-6 in Tri-Valley League. The Cardinals compete in Frontier League. Of the final win, Bryant said, “It was a great way for our seniors and the team in general to finish the season... I think the TVL and that top competition really helped us become a better team.” ––Peter Dugré

April 24 –Warrior boys tennis suffered a 13-5 loss to Malibu High School in the final Tri-Valley league match and had its playoff hopes dashed in the process. Jonathan Cleek won the team’s only singles point and nearly came back from a 5-0 deficit, tying the score at 5-5 before losing the match. “I was impressed with his determination and never-say-die attitude,” commented coach Charles Bryant. in doubles, Ruben Andrade/Bryan Taira went 1-1 and then Andrade paired with Damian Vega to pick up another point. Collin Nathanson/Ricky Zermeno went 2-1, and suffered a disappointing loss in a close match. “Unfortunately, the loss also knocks us out of the playoff picture. But I give Malibu credit, they were better towards the end of many even sets and were a bit more composed in crunch time,” Bryan said. The warriors finished the league season with a 7-12 overall record and 2-6 TVL mark.

Baseball
Carpinteria High School
April 23 – Warrior baseball lost its first Frontier League game of the season 5-1 at Santa Paula High School. The team was plagued by its inability to drive in runs and left 13 on base. The exception was in the second inning. Jonah Spach led off with a single and stole second base. Mo Sanchez knocked him around with a single to center field. Sanchez reached base in each of his four at bats and finished with two hits, two walks and the RBI. Freshman pitcher David Martinez was chased by the Cardinals in the fifth inning. Relief pitchers Sal Delgado and Diego Contrerars finished out the contest with 2 2/3 innings of scoreless ball. “The good news is that we had greatly improved at bats and many opportunities to score. The bad news, of course, is that we missed the opportunities,” commented coach Pat Cooney. April 25 – Pitcher Mo Sanchez and warrior baseball slipped by Santa Paula High School 2-1 to notch a Frontier League win. Sanchez threw the complete game and yielded just three hits while striking out three, and the defense committed zero errors. Left fielder Jorge Arroyo and short stop Jonah Spach kept Santa Paula in check with diving catches. Sanchez also figured in all the Warrior offense. He led off the game with a walk, was balked to second, sacrificed to third by Javier Jasso and stole home with two outs to tie the score. in the second inning, Spach drew a two-out walk, was balked to second and Sanchez doubled off the right field fence to drive him home. “There is no doubt that we leaned heavily on Mo today and he came through. The one-hit win is a bit unusual, but our at-bats were good and we forced the starter out of the game at the end. Fortunately, there are lots of ways to win a baseball game,” commented coach Pat Cooney.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE CASE NUMBER 1466786
ESTATE OF DOROTHY MAE LEONARD To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of DOROTHY MAE LEONARD. A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by CURTIS LOPEZ in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Barbara. The PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that CURTIS LOPEZ be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. THE PETITION requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. THE PETITION request authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

Coastal View and Carpinteria Library Book Club
“Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close” by Jonathan Safran
Jonathan Safran works his wordly magic on a story packed with both tragedy and hope in “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.” The book, which is narrated by a 9-year-old boy who loses his father in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, will be discussed by Coastal View and Carpinteria Library Book Club on Wednesday, May 21 at 7:30 p.m. at the Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. The boy, Oskar, sets out to find the lock that fits a mysterious key belonging to his father. His quest becomes an adventure through New York City’s boroughs that brings him in contact with survivors of the attacks. Club gatherings are open to the public, and anyone seeking more information can contact Lea at 684-4428.
Carpinteria Library recommendation “The Dinner” by Herman Koch
Two couples meet at a fashionable restaurant for dinner. Paul is a teacher with caustic wit, and Serge, a snobbish candidate for prime minister. Over the polite scrapings of cutlery, the conversation remains a gentle hum of polite discourse—the banality of work and holidays, with biting narration by Paul. But behind the empty words of these two brothers, and their wives, terrible things need to be said. Each couple has a 15-year-old son. The two boys are united by their involvement in a single horrific act; an act that has triggered a police investigation, and shattered the comfortable, insulated worlds of their families. As the dinner reaches its culinary climax, the conversation finally touches on their children. As civility and friendship disintegrate, each couple shows just how far they are prepared to go to protect those they love. Set in Amsterdam, and translated from Dutch, this novel reveals the dark side of high society and asks what any one of us would do in the face of unimaginable tragedy. ––Tara O’Reilly, Supervising Librarian, Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.
Friends of the Library Used Book Store recommendation “Killing Christ” by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard
I’ve heard the plot of “Killing Christ” at least 54 times, having been raised Catholic. I was honestly tempted to forego the bragging rights to having read the entire trilogy of assassination books by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard, and opt for a peppier subject. However, with “Killing Lincoln” and “Killing Kennedy” under my belt, I “took the plunge,” and I’m glad I did. For the religiously devout, this book serves up rich historical insight into the life of Jesus Christ, which many have reported as spiritually fortifying. Non-Christians experience an enlightening portal into an ancient civilization and a religious movement that has unquestionably influenced modern civilization. The occupation of a religious sovereign (Judah) by an invading superpower (Imperial Rome) provides a poignant counterpoint to modern-day Afghanistan, Iraq and, of late, Crimea. Be forewarned, the graphic details of a Roman crucifixion are hard to forget, once read. ––Tom Banigan, customer of Friends of the Library Used Book Store, 5103 Carpinteria Ave.
Student recommendation
“Why We Broke Up” by Daniel Handler
“I’m telling you why we broke up, Ed. I’m writing it in this letter, the whole truth of why it happened.” So begins Min Green’s letter to her ex, Ed Slaterton. On her lap, she has a box, full of the remnants of their failed relationship. As she pulls out each item, one by one, Min slowly recounts the story of their relationship from her perspective, explaining to Ed the significance of each item: ticket stubs from the movie they went to on their first date, a recipe book he bought for her at her favorite store, to name a few. Each and every one of these items holds within it a story, a reason for the break-up. A story of love and loss that everyone can relate to, whether their first heartbreak happened five days or 50 years ago, “Why We Broke Up” is the story of an adolescent girl’s first venture into adulthood, and the painful lesson she learns from it. Written by the author of “A Series of Unfortunate Events,” “Why We Broke Up” is a heartbreakingly realistic story of the loss of first love, and the strength we gain from it. ––Audrey Lent, student, Santa Barbara City College

Howard student Emilene Newton hand feeds an alpaca during a school fieldtrip to Canzelle Alpacas farm.
Howard School sent its students to Canzelle Alpacas farm for up close experiences with alpacas and a lesson in the use of their fleece for making clothing. Educator Carole-Anne Lonson and her assistant Humberto escorted the students to the farm where they pet, fed and walked the alpacas. According to the teachers, the fieldtrip also gave the students a hands-on experience connected to the first-grade literature book called “Pelle’s Suit,” which details the process of using sheep wool for clothing. Students learned that alpacas, native to South America, have three stomachs and their fleece is used in blankets, scarves and other items.

Aliso students put heads together
upper grade students at Aliso School have long graduated from the kindergarten classroom, and these fourth- and fifth-graders are taking trips down memory lane to peer tutor their younger schoolmates. The tutors listen in on kindergartners reading from decodable, phonics-based books. “Our upper grade students find value in assisting younger students in the classroom, and our kindergarten students love the extra attention they receive from their older peers,” commented principal holly Minear. “Many are just learning to read and need a good listening ear.” Research shows both the tutor and tutee benefit from the interaction.

Summer Camp Guide 2014
The superintendent says get outside this summer By Paul Cordeiro Carpinteria Unified School District Superintendent “Put on your play clothes and go outside!” It’s a command we don’t often hear anymore. For those of us of a certain generation, summer and outside were virtually synonymous. “Outside” typically started with a list of chores (thanks, Dad!) followed by a rendezvous at a neighborhood park for a pickup baseball game and then a few hours at the local pool. Bikes were de rigueur. If that wasn’t enough, we’d go outside after dinner and play some more (tag, catch, hoops).
With so many calories burned, it really didn’t matter what we ate during the day, and I can say with confidence that a lot of it was pure junk. There was no Body Mass Index, because there was no alarm about obesity. We were all lean, some of us downright skinny. When it was finally dark, our family would sit in front of our sole (black and white) TV, watch the news, and then, together, read one of the three newspapers delivered to our home. There was a lot to discuss about the day’s events. We’d watch another 30 to 60 minutes of TV and then it was off to bed. Bedtime was 9 p.m. (8:30 during the school year) and we were asleep within minutes. All that play induces sleep quickly. That was summer. Can any of you relate? Very likely depends on your age. If you are currently a parent of school-age children, competing with “Go outside” are the sedentary temptations of social media, videogames and everything “on-demand.” New in the media world is the phrase “binge viewing,” as in hours watching every episode of the same show. Worse, it’s not just children who give in to these temptations; rather, the entire household is complicit. Throw in some junk food (and yes, portion sizes have ballooned) and a diminution of meaningful language exchanges (because everyone is so busy texting, posting and watching) and you now have a household of the “puffying” and “stupidizing” variety. Ergo all the 21st century concerns about obesity and low academic achievement. Apologies to those of you who take vigorous exception to this updated summer scenario. Happily, you would tell me that you limit time doing social media, video games and television, that you insist on daily “outside time” to burn calories and that you have daily interactions as a family (however you are comprised as a family) around some type of book or newspaper, two excellent sources for building reading comprehension and vocabulary. Also, if the food is going to be less than nutritious, you will tell me that very little is consumed. It’s all very simple, but it takes consistency and discipline, more so in households that predominate with multiple wage earners. At the moment it’s so easy to “rent a movie and order a pizza,” someone has to step up and follow the plan. Those who are the most consistent and disciplined, whether or not it’s summer, will realize the reward of healthier, smarter children ready to succeed in school.

Surviving spring fever Some call it Spring Fever, others Meltdown May, but whatever you call it, the last stretch of school before summer break can be a big challenge, both for children and parents. So how can you cross that finish line without hitting the wall? How can you arrive at June 13 when there are still 44 days between then and now? CVN sought some advice from pros—as in the moms and dads and educators who’ve done this over and over again. You can put away your flack jacket and come out from under the covers; it’s going to be okay. We talk about finishing strong and finishing whatever you start in our family. It’s been a common theme throughout all my kids’ years, whether it’s school, a job or sports. It’s all the same and will continue to be as they get into adulthood. I think if this basic message is established young, it’s not quite as tough when they get to high school. It’s also nice (though could be considered bribery!) to plan a fun trip in the summer to give them something to look forward to. Or even on the last day of the school year to kick off summer. We used to do a big class party at Jelly Bowl with all the kids on the last day of school when they were in elementary school. It was so fun, and it’s a tradition they still remember. ––Schane Craddock, mother Have your child sit down with you and set some goals for herself. Prompt them if necessary. What are you strong in? What are the areas that challenge you? What are some steps we can take to improve in those challenging areas? Talk with your child’s teacher about what those goals might look like.
Encourage your child to keep a daily journal. Regularly engage your child in conversation about all aspects of their school day. What was your favorite thing you studied today? Can we research that topic further online? Should we look for books on that topic? How can we help you share your knowledge at the next family event? ––Jamie Persoon, Canalino School Principal Ask different questions. When you engage students about what is happening in school, focus on what is most important. Here are some questions to try in place of “How was school today?” 1) “What was the toughest thing you overcame today? How did you do it?” 2) “What was the most important thing you learned today?” 3) “How did you help someone else today?” 4) “Who helped you the most today?” Also, do not underestimate the power of normalizing their experience and appealing to their better selves.

opportunity to take a deep breath and show yourself that you have the ability to get through any challenge.” ––David Mochel, father, former teacher, founder of Applied Attention Consulting Nothing helps denote the passage of time quite like the good old calendar page turning. I liked to “count down” by establishing a goal for each week— could be as simple as completion of a project, finishing a book or recognizing a teacher or aide for their extra help or attention—coupled with a fun reward or tangible validation of some kind. My kids loved “You and Me” days where they got to choose what we’d do. It’s also fun to get kids involved in the selection of summer enrichment opportunities when they are old enough to do the research around their preferred activities, such as days and time offered, location, cost, etc. and let them make the case. ––Marybeth Carty, mother Talk about students’ favorite activities this time of year, such as the school play at Summerland, swimming lessons for third-graders at Aliso, the Carnival at Aliso, Beach Day, Field Day—whatever it is. Toward the end of the year, some of the academic pressures start to lessen, so enjoy that release and treasure the time with your classmates, friends and teachers, and make lots of fun plans for the summer! ––Holly Minear, Aliso and Summerland schools Principal There is so much happening at the end of the year, especially for graduating seniors, it can be overwhelming. What worked for our family was to create a calendar page specifically for your student, along the lines of a spreadsheet. Make it big and post it in a common area. Break out the highlighters and color code each event by level of importance. Make sure to include scholarship deadlines, test dates, days to submit final paperwork, school events and such. Each day, make a little to-do list of things to bring or send, based on the calendar. Checking these things off gives the family a sense of order in the midst of chaos and reduces stress. There’s nothing worse than a student missing a golden opportunity because they missed the deadline. It’s also good training for what is to come in college. ––Kim Drain, mother The one thing that seems to help our girls (and me!) to cope during this hectic time is extra outdoor end-of-day activities, like a fun bike ride after dinner or an evening walk on the beach with our wild puppy or after school hike on the bluffs. Those fun activities help keep the kids active and remind us all that summer is so close. We are also trying yoga in the park on Saturday mornings, and both our girls enjoyed the class last weekend. ––Toni Thompson, mother Try making a chart to the end of the year, with the possibility to win prizes for accomplishments like homework, tests and paying attention! ––Kiona Gross, mother, Curious Cup Bookstore owner

CONTINUED FROM PAGE B5 I have an analogy. In high school I used to be a distance runner. The most challenging part of the race is the final bend before the final straightaway—it’s that moment when you have to go to your reserve tank to see what you have left to finish the race. You can see the finish line, but you still have to tap into every last bit of strength you have to finish strong. Just on the other side of that line is rest—summer is coming! We can make it! If students aren’t familiar with the idea of this race analogy, perhaps parents can challenge them to a race around the track somewhere and then when the experience is fresh in their minds talk about how to finish strong for the school year. ––Angela White, mother, teacher
Four fun filled skills–based days learning football fundamentals with the importance of; sportsmanship, teamwork, fitness, discipline, and building character. Warrior Football Camp is a coed non-contact program directed by the CHS Warriors coaching staff. We welcome local Carpinteria boys and girls, including players from Santa Barbara to Ventura.
This isn’t always possible when both parents are working, but something I do to help fight spring fever is provide a morning snack for all the kids when I volunteer in the classroom. Every Wednesday they know they have a new fun snack to look forward to. I have also pre-arranged with the teacher to bring fruit popsicles several times, just for a quick fun break. ––Nikki Yamaoka, mother

earned these field trips, too, by hard work and behavior throughout the year. We also celebrate all the achievements our students have made throughout the year at Open House. The students bring their families to “show off” all the cool things they have done. I talk about these special events daily to make the next 33 days of school something to look forwards to! ––Andrea Edmondson, teacher We just try to be outside as much as we can and take advantage of where we live. We pick up food from Rudy’s on Taco Tuesday and then go down to the beach to eat, or we swim after dinner at the pool. These are some favorites of ours. Music can actually help kids learn, so you can take them to Lucky Llama and enjoy live music while doing homework and sipping on tea, or do your reading at the beach or under a tree at El Carro Park or at the library while your other kids are playing on the computers with headphones on. ––Sarah Smith, mother Every assignment has value, most importantly the ones that come at the end of the school year. This is a student’s opportunity to raise or lower a grade, which could mean the difference between a “B” or an “A,” but could also mean the difference between having to attend summer school or not. Finish strong, but don’t forget to take time to exercise and do the things that make you most happy. Parents should encourage their kids by facilitating their interests, but not with bribes. ––Peter Bonning, teacher

Summer Camp Guide 2014
expert tips for zeroing in on summer camp options First realize there are no perfect choices. When it comes to selecting the best place for your kids in the summer, options abound, and whatever your method for whittling them down—ven diagram, pros and cons charts—you’ve got to understand that while important, this decision probably isn’t the most momentous of the developmental years. Author Terri Fedonczak, a life coach and blogger at girlpowerforgood.com, recommends quelling your fear by being systematic about making the best choices for your family and situation. Follow her six steps: 1. First, calm yourselF: This decision produces fear, because there are so many options or your options are limited—both fear-inducing situations. When you feel the stress levels rising, take three deep belly breaths. Feel your pulse rate drop and your shoulders come out of your ears. Doesn’t that feel better? 2. treat the problem like a puzzle or a mystery with you as lead detective: We make much better decisions when we engage our creative mind to help us sort through options. When we are stressed out, we are in fight or flight mode. If you can treat this decision like a puzzle with a solution that you just can’t see yet, then you can get creative without feeling overwhelmed. 3. ask For help: This is where your friends and co-workers can step in to help. Ask them what they are doing with their kids this summer. Ask your boss about the possibility of summer hours; you will never know until you ask. Go in armed with a plan that benefits your boss as well, and then release the outcome. Your boss will be more open to options if you’re not needy and desperate when you ask. 4. use baby steps: This is a big decision, and it may seem overwhelming. Use baby steps to acquire the necessary information to make an informed choice. When any task feels too big, break it down into smaller steps. Set a timer for 5 minutes and research summer daycare and camp options until it goes off, and then take a breather. 5. you determine when it’s okay to leave your kids home alone: Just because the law says that your 11 year old can stay home alone doesn’t mean it’s the right decision for you. Every kid is different. If you’re leaving your kids at home, make sure you have a plan for checkin times as well as activities/chores for the day. Make the plan together so that they take ownership of the decision. This will teach them independence and accountability; two things all parents want for their children. 6. use your own Family values to guide you: Don’t feel pressure to be just like everyone else; do what feels right to you! If your family values are centered in creativity, sending your kid to a structured math camp is not the best choice for you, regardless of how prestigious it is. Figure out what’s important to your family values, and make a decision that feels right in your gut. Following these steps will help you make the right decision for you and your kids. Once you’ve arrived at a decision that feels right, accept it and move on. Waffling wastes energy. It won’t be perfect, because nothing ever is, but if it’s made from a calm loving place, then you and your kids will be just fine.
