Second Franklin Trail phase set to open soon By LeA Boyd

In county offices and on chaparral-covered hillsides, work is underway to open the rest of Franklin Trail. The gate to phase two is expected to swing open in the next 90 days, giving hikers, bikers and horseback riders access to another 3-plus miles of wide trail leading to the edge of the Los Padres Forest, 1,750 feet above Carpinteria. Then, in 2016, completion of the project’s final phase is anticipated. The trail will realign with the historic Franklin Trail in the last phase and reach a crest 7.34 miles from the trailhead at a 3,704-foot elevation. “Thrilled” is how Jane Murray, co-chair of Friends of Franklin Trail, described the way she feels about the imminent opening of the second phase. “It has been a community effort and I am happy to say I see light at the end of the tunnel.” Murray and Bud Girard formed Friends of Franklin Trail four years ago and managed to clear more bureaucratic red tape, fundraising and construction hurdles

Inspired learning a trainer’s journal

ROB BURKE On a daily, if not constant, basis, I’m reminded of people who inspire me in my lifelong journey to understand why exactly we are all on this planet. At first, I thought it was to learn as much as possible, but now, a dear friend tells me I haven’t gone far enough. We are here to learn all right, but it is love that is the lesson. She was not talking about romantic love, though it could very well be a part of this journey. Instead she is referring to the love we experience in contrast to fear. When you boil it all down, we’re in an oscillating state of either love or fear. It’s that simple. Let’s first talk simply about the difference between the two emotions. If you feel worried or anxious or ill-at-ease, then you’re most likely in a state of fear or conflict. If you feel at peace and typically give more from your heart than you take, you are likely approaching life from a position of love. Enter Chris Martinez, 39, a friend and a local Five Cities Arroyo Grande firefighter who has found the true meaning of love through his profession but also as someone who is constantly giving toward the betterment of others even when he’s out of the fire station. Chris is about to do the extraordinary, he plans on running a full marathon in Huntington Beach next month in his full firefighter gear, including an oxygen tank. His goal is to raise money and awareness for two young boys who are fighting for their lives. Mateo, 3, and Phineas, 9, both have cancer. Chris wants them to know that he is doing this to show support and strength and to demonstrate that they are a team in this battle. “Life isn’t fair, but they are not alone,” said Chris. “This is not only for the kids, but for the families,” who have to drive hour upon hour every week to seek treatment in Los Angeles. His goal is to raise $10,000 to go toward the boys’ treatment. He is halfway there but seeks out the community’s help in his quest to demonstrate the goodness

that comes from selfless acts such as this. I know Chris from the gym, and I’ve been fortunate to have been the recipient of his supportive and giving nature. I have two extremely compromised knees from a 1999 skiing accident that left me immobile for more than six months. To this day, I have difficulty with certain movements. Chris asked if he could train me to help me recover from my injuries. That’s right, Chris wanted to train the trainer! Again, this shows how one person can inspire through kindness. I was deeply moved that he would even suggest such an undertaking because I am not an easy target. I followed his guidance and was actually able to do more than I thought. Chris’ commitment to me was a reminder of how we can move mountains if we support one another. Now I’m certain that many of you who read my column on a regular basis are thinking, good God, this trainer has Parkinson’s disease, two torn rotator cuffs, and now we find out that he had destroyed both knees. Let me just say that every injury or ailment is a reminder that we are fallible. Each stumble is a gift that inspires me positively into action. As humans, we can hide in the comfort of our media rooms and desk jobs, but I am a reminder of how we need to act to overcome adversity within ourselves with the goal of positively impacting others. For me, each challenge becomes a metaphor for life. If I give up to any degree because I have a hiccup in my plans, then I would not be a very good trainer just as in life, should espouse a fighting spirit. Never give up! We must also be supportive with the belief that we can do anything with a fear-free mindset. No fear here, and to date, I have done everything I’ve set out to do despite the challenges. Using Chris and even me as examples, you are only stoppable if you allow selfdoubt or fear to prevail over believing in the positive and looking through a filter from love. The Surf City Marathon in Huntington Beach is on Feb. 1. If you would like to contribute to Chris’ success, you can contact me for details. Rob Burke is the owner and a certified trainer at the Rob Burke Turbo-Fit Studio, located at 410 Palm Avenue in Carpinteria. For over 28 years, Rob has helped clients of all ages and abilities find their inner athlete and get a jumpstart on life. Rob can be contacted at rob@robburkefitness.com.

Council can pass cat declawing resolution

Because of misstatements in your recent article on cat declawing, (“Cat declawing decried as inhumane,” CVN, Nov. 20) many residents in Ojai, Santa Barbara, Goleta, Santa Ynez, Solvang, Paso Robles and San Luis Obispo now believe, falsely, that a city council’s passing an anti-declawing resolution is prohibited by law. It’s widely known that an ordinance banning the practice of declawing is currently not legal. The issue is passing an anti-declawing resolution. An ordinance is a law adopted by the city council. A resolution is a formal expression of opinion or intention of the city council. Having been interviewed for your article, disbelieving when reading the misinformation, the founder of the Paw Project, Dr. Jennifer Conrad, immediately had the truth posted on the organization’s website and Facebook account. There is no law that prevents a California city or any other U.S. city from passing a resolution against declawing. Why has your newspaper refused to correct the record?

Solace Wales Kentfield, Calif.

Editor’s Note: The following correction appeared in the Nov. 27 issue of CVN: “The article ‘Cat declawing decried as inhumane’ that was printed in the Nov. 20 issue of Coastal View News erroneously described a state law that affects cat declawing. The law prohibits cities from banning cat declawing, and City Manager Dave Durflinger told CVN that the law preempts a local ordinance banning the practice.”

Obituary

Laws are lines in the sand

Regarding graffiti painted at the Santa Barbara News-Press office: “The border is illegal not the people who cross it.” I wouldn’t vandalize or suppress the respectable Santa Barbara News-Press, but I agree borders are, if not illegal, oppressive restrictors of freedom. Borders are arbitrary lines established by conquering states to control and contain those within and to bar others from entering, however peacefully. Of course, borders are promoted for the safety and security of those within, no matter how dangerous and crime infested it already is, thanks in part to the state making war both within and without said borders. Wikipedia: “In October 2013, the incarceration rate of the United States was the highest in the world, at 716 per 100,000 of the population.” Aaron G. Lehmer of CounterPunch.org: “In December (2001), another dreadful statistic—more than 3,500 dead—was made public, except this time the figure did not refer to ... Ground Zero. No, this gruesome number described the civilian death toll so far in Afghanistan from America’s socalled ‘surgical’ air strikes since Operation Enduring Freedom began.” Upset at any violation of the law, just because it’s the law (i.e. the identification of someone as an “illegal” for being on “your” turf.)? It’s time for Frederic Bastiat school: “... if there exists a law which sanctions slavery or monopoly, oppression or robbery, in any form whatever, it must not even be mentioned. For how can it be mentioned without damaging the respect which it inspires? Still further, morality and political economy must be taught from the point of view of this law; from the supposition that it must be a just law merely because it is a law. Another effect of this tragic perversion of the law is that it gives an exaggerated importance to political passions and conflicts, and to politics in general.”

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

Jr. Carpinterian of the Year finalists unveiled On Jan. 24, three qualified Junior Carpinterian of the Year finalists will be whittled down to a single winner. The three Carpinteria High School students in the running— Jonathan Cleek, Adriana Morales and Gabriel Zapien-Ybarra—all boast resumes beyond their years and are leading the Class of 2015 by example. Their sights are set on prestigious universities, and the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce award carries a $4,000 scholarship for the winner and $1,500 for both runners up. Read on for highlights from their uncanny academic achievements and seemingly impossible commitment to clubs, community service and athletics.

Jonathan Cleek

If everything goes as planned for Junior Carpinterian of the Year ﬁnalist Jonathan Cleek, his future will include a scalpel and an in depth knowledge of what’s going on under the hood of his medical patients. The aspiring surgeon has a 4.475 GPA at Carpinteria High School, achieved while taking on a rigorous course load that proves he can handle the high-level academics of medical school. His top choices for college are Stanford, Harvard and Westmont, and his list of extra-curricular activities is as well-rounded as they come. “I place great value on interacting with as many people as possible,” Cleek said. “I try to impact as many lives as possible, if even in small ways.” He is the drum major in the band, a four-year tennis player and varsity basketball captain last season. A natural leader, Cleek has been president and lead attorney for mock trial all while earning the title of Mr. Warrior this year by taking the crown at the school’s variety show. He counts his position as regional senator in the Junior State of America, a political debate organization, as one of his proudest achievements. He said the performance side of his activities is his way of challenging himself. “I love a challenge, and that helps me push my boundaries,” Cleek said. He also founded the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and leads the club at its weekly meetings. His community involvement includes three years of volunteer work at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, volunteering at Rods and Roses, Carpinteria Triathlon and the Orchard to Ocean race.

Gabriel Zapien-Ybarra

The words “I love Carpinteria,” easily roll off Gabriel Zapien-Ybarra’s tongue. He is all about community and by extension what he sees as a cornerstone of the community of Carpinteria, its proud athletic traditions. He considers the scholarship he’ll receive as a Junior Carpinterian of the Year ﬁnalist a stepping stone to being able to return to Carpinteria after receiving a college education and enact positive change. He has observed ﬁrsthand the positive impact athletics can have on young people through volunteering with the Carpinteria girls softball league and as an assistant coach on the Santa Barbara Special Olympics basketball team. “To see how people push themselves to achieve and overcome obstacles was just amazing,” Zapien-Ybarra said. Zapien-Ybarra has been accepted to Baylor University but is waiting to hear from his top choice, USC, which he wants to attend for its business and human biology schools. His plan to turn a love of sports into a career has led him to devise a business plan that mixes kinesiology and sports equipment. All future plans the current Carpinteria High School student body president has end with him circling back to his home city to dedicate himself to the community. President is a title Zapien-Ybarra wears comfortably. He’s also president of the Spanish Club and the California Scholarship Federation. And he captained the football team in the fall before taking on the role with this winter’s basketball squad. He said his experience as a volunteer for Carpinteria’s Relay for Life has impacted him greatly. Zapien-Ybarra lost a great-aunt to cancer; she had been an integral part of his early life. Her memory has partly fueled his ambition to be named a Junior Carpinterian of the Year. “If I were to be named Junior Carpinterian of the Year, I’d just be speechless,” he said.

Adriana Morales

Adriana Morales has such a clear picture of her ideal future that she knows where she wants her office to be. Her longterm goal is to report to the White House to work in finance management. She said such ambition requires funding for an expensive college education, which makes her position as a Junior Carpinterian of the Year finalist both a necessity and an honor. “I really want that college education, so I need any scholarship I can get my hands on,” she said. Her high school experiences in Virtual Enterprise class, which empowers students to run a business, and as a math whiz in Advanced Placement Calculus have turned her on to economics. Morales’ top choice for a school is the University of Pennsylvania, where she hopes to major in economics. An experience that got her wheels turning on the interesting intricacies of economics was when she volunteered to help prepare taxes through the IRS Volunteer Income Tax Assistance last year in a program at Carpinteria Children’s Project at Main. She has also been a four-year member of girls volleyball and captained the team for two years. Her leadership skills shine through in her service as Vice President for the Associated Student Body, a role that allows her to do the behind-the-scenes work for student activities. While Morales has been a student leader, she credits the guidance of teachers for steering her in the right direction. “I’ve had so many great teachers who have been very supportive. I wouldn’t have taken the rigorous courses that I have or have been involved nearly as much if it weren’t for them,” she said.

Ringing in the New Year

A Carpinteria man, 25, only made it 30 minutes into 2015 before being pulled over for having his brake light out on Jan.1 at 12:30 a.m. on linden Avenue. The officer immediately detected the odor of alcohol on the driver’s breath. An upfront kind of guy, the driver reportedly spontaneously stated, “I’m not gonna BS with you, I’m too drunk to drive. I’m not gonna lie to you, I’m flipping hammered.” The officer decided to proceed with field sobriety testing, at which point the driver requested to have an attorney present. The officer explained that attorneys come into play after arrest, not before. The man opted out of walking and turning and standing on a leg because it was too cold and his bad knee was acting up. The man was arrested for suspicion of DUI and had a blood draw.

Bio vandal

A woman reported that her office had been soiled in mysterious ways overnight between Jan. 7 and 8. When she locked up on Jan. 7, everything appeared in order, but when she returned on Jan. 8, a large, dark red stain had appeared on the carpet. She surmised it to be the blood of a homeless person. Outside the building

she also discovered human feces and trash littered into bushes. Nothing was stolen from within the office.

Stealing the future

A man reported that his cell phone went missing after he had left it at a Carpinteria Avenue restaurant. When he called the restaurant to check if it remained at the booth where he had been sitting, management reviewed security footage and said the phone had been there when he left but then landed in the next customer’s pocket. footage showed what appeared to be a family enter the booth after the man had left. The children discovered the phone and turned it over to an adult male. The adult quickly pocketed it. The victim said he wished to press charges if the man could be identified, so deputies obtained a copy of the footage. restaurant management did not recognize the suspect as a regular.

Visitors came from Saudi Arabia, Canada, Armenia, Sweden, the Netherlands, Brazil, Japan, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Israel, Germany, New Mexico, Wyoming, Alabama, New York, Colorado, Michigan, Oregon, South Carolina, Utah, Arkansas, and Alaska. A sea lion again joined the seals.

Disturbances

Beach walkers who failed to heed the beach signs caused two major disturbances. Some seals were also frightened into the ocean twice by pier activities.

Natural History Notes

` The harbor seal sanctuary also provides a refuge for many birds. Watchers last week recorded hundreds of pelicans and cormorants on the beach and engaging in feeding on a large school of fish.

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 sealwatch@ hotmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.

Clap along with Howard School Students present “Happy” video parody By Kateri Wozny

The Howard School students are expressing their warm and “happy” feelings about their school with others via YouTube, thanks to two local parents. Jason Rodriguez and Jody Pesapane both have children attending the school for the first year. What started out as a meet and greet at the institution turned into a creative collaboration between the two. The result? A written and produced parody of hip hop singer Pharrell Williams’ hit music video “Happy” called “Howard” with 83 students. Currently, the video has more than 1,850 views on YouTube. “I was thinking of creative ways to advertise the school, and one way people can relate is through music,” Rodriguez explained. “If you take a catchy song and replace the original words, it sticks.” The inspiration for the video occurred while Rodriguez was at LAX. “I picked ‘Happy’ because LAX staff were doing a PSA to the song and dancing,” he said. “That transformed the airport into an awesome idea, like, wow, this is a happy place.” Production began in October at Rose Lane Studio, with lead vocalists Jonathan McEuen of Ojai and Anna Kasper of Santa Barbara recording the track, along with six Howard School choir students singing background. Shooting itself took seven days throughout November at over 60 locations throughout Santa Barbara and Carpinteria, including the Santa Barbara Airport, fire departments and Bacara Resport & Spa. Other locations in Carpinteria included City Beach, Carpinteria State Beach, Tomol Interpretive Play Area, United Studios of Self Defense, City Market, the alley adjacent to Island Brewing Company, the Plaza Playhouse Theater and along Linden Avenue and Willow Place. All but one location waived filming fees, and production costs came to only $100. “People just hopped on board like crazy,” Rodriguez said. “They were very generous, and we’re grateful to the community.” Parents and school staff also embraced the project, allowing students to be taken out of school to film scenes and have Rodriguez and Pesapane transport them. “The school really worked with us, and everyone was extremely flexible,” Pesapane said. “It was a neat experience to see the maturity level of these kids; they were very respectful.” When it came to casting the two main stars of the video, Rodriguez and Pesa-

SUBMITTED CLIPS FROM vIDEO

Howard School seventh-grader Peter robbins and eighth-grader Sophia Dominguez star in Howard School’s video spin-off of Pharrell Williams’ “Happy.” pane chose seventh-grader Peter Robbins and eighth-grader Sophia Dominguez, who lip-synched the main vocals. “Every kid at Howard has an outgoing personality but we wanted ones who were not afraid to step out of their comfort zone,” Rodriguez explained. “We made our decision based on the recommendations of the teacher, staff and students.” Both Robbins and Dominguez view the video as an unforgettable experience. “It was nice seeing other places around Santa Barbara that I hadn’t been to before,” Robbins said. “I learned more about acting, music videos and how many cuts have to be done.” “My friends suggested that I be part of the video because they felt I was the most energetic to do the role,” Dominguez said. “My favorite scene to film was the one with all my classmates because it’s my last year with all of the students. It’s a great memory to have.” After months of hard work and dedication, the music video debuted at the school’s annual Christmas concert. “There was a lot of laughing and clapping from audience members, and the kids were ecstatic because that was the first time they’d seen the finished product,” Pesapane said.

Howard parent-turned-video producer Jason rodriguez instructs Sullivan Teel in his role for the filming of Howard’s “Happy” video. Rodriguez also commented that Williams himself had not seen the parody yet, but hopes he does. “If it’s possible for him to view it, it would be awesome,” Rodriguez said. But the “Howard” video is just the beginning. Both Rodriguez and Pesapane would like to make a yearly video and have the students and community even more involved. “We are talking about this year’s project and want to make this an annual tra-

dition,” Rodriguez said. “We also want to have more people embrace the project, whether it’s with equipment, finances or something else. We encourage community members to email us.” To view the “Howard” video, visit The Howard School website at thehowardschool.org. Those wishing to become involved with this year’s video project should email Rodriguez at jasonrod2@ yahoo.com or Pesapane at jody@liquidbluemedia.com.

Passport to Howard opens doors to prospective families

Howard students dance their way through the farmers market in a scene from “Happy.”

The Howard School will host its Passport to Howard event this week, allowing families and students to get a first-hand glimpse of the school’s Carden Method curriculum and experience Howard’s effective, holistic approach to child development in time for the upcoming enrollment season. The event will take place on Friday, Jan. 23 at 8:15 a.m. at 5315 Foothill Road. Howard is a pre-kindergarten through eighth grade institution and one of the area’s longest established private schools, with a legacy of over 100 years in Santa Barbara. The Passport to Howard event will allow visitors to travel through the school and get their Howard Passport stamped at each academic destination. Stations will cover a live Carden demonstration, introduction to teachers, beginning French lesson, art session with art teacher Rebecca Stebbins and an all-school community assembly. To find out more, call 745-8448.

Carpinteria students develop conﬁdence with SB Dance Institute BY KATERI WOZNY

Third-grade teacher Mary Lewandowski has her hands full with her class at Aliso School, but she looks forward to Monday the most, when she and her students can cut loose during the dance period. “The students love dancing and it’s one of my favorite times of the week,” Lewandowski said. “The students walk into class with energy, focus and really work hard at learning all the steps. They also remind me to practice so I know that by the time the performance comes around, we will definitely have it down!” Lewandowski’s class is one of three third-grade classes at Aliso that participate in the Santa Barbara Dance Institute’s (SBDI) in-school program at Carpinteria Unified School District. The SBDI serves about 550 children in 12 schools throughout Santa Barbara County to teach kids to believe in themselves, work together as a team and develop excellence through dance choreography. In Carpinteria, the dance organization teaches about 110 third-graders at Aliso and Canalino schools. The organization was also recently awarded about $10,000 from the California Arts Council. “Dance should be part of a child’s curriculum,” said Rosalina Macisco, executive and artistic director for SBDI. “We use music from around the world to have students move to the beat and stay with the rhythm. The class is disciplined, strict and very challenging so they feel successful at everything.” CUSD teamed up with SBDI in 2010, and the partnership has been going strong ever since. Besides Aliso’s in-school program, the dance organization also teaches third-graders with the district’s After School All-Stars program at both Aliso and Canalino. Once the program is complete, students at Aliso’s in-school program perform at the Marjorie Luke Theatre in the springtime with about 300 other kids from schools and organizations from across the county. Students who participate in the after-school program have the opportunity to perform at the Carpinteria Middle School auditorium in the spring as well. “I like (SBDI) because of the structure and how the students are taught,” said Sharon Velarde, director of the After School All-Stars program for CUSD. “The kids learn more than dance, they learn memorization and coordination that stimulates their brain and enhances their academic learning.” Aliso Principal Holly Minear feels that students who have a difficult time with academics often shine when it comes to dance. “Embedded in the dance instruction is math since music is comprised of eight counts and the routines are all built on that eight count structure,” Minear said. “In an era when art education has been virtually cut out of public education, this program serves a huge need for our students: the need to move and to express themselves in a dramatic and creative way.” Tickets for the May 17 performance at Marjorie Luke Theatre will go on sale in March through the Lobero Theatre Box Office. Prices are $15 for adults and $5 for kids. The May 14 performance at Carpinteria Middle School is free. For more information, visit sbdi.org.

Juan Quintero Gonzalez and Lesly Tinajero Garcia join peers in perfecting dance moves taught by Tianna Caroll of Santa Barbara Dance Institute.

BOYD

Carpinteria third-graders love to dance! Mary Lewandowski’s third-graders share their thoughts on Santa Barbara Dance Institute “I think that dance class is fun because we get to dance a lot and jump and hop and clap.” –Katie “I think Rosalina and Meri (the dance teachers) are good at dancing and are nice.” –Esperanza “I like dance because we get to do something that some of us have done and others have a dream to do (dance or even be on TV).” –Jessie “Dance is really good for you. Dancing is the best.” –Paola “I think dance should go on all over the world.” –Matthew “When I do dance, after dance is over, it gets me in shape. We love dance because we play games like Boys versus Girls. Girls go ﬁrst to do the dance, then boys go after the girls, so pretty much it is a dance off, and usually the girls win.” –Amarisse “We are lucky to get to do a do-over when we mess up. I am also thankful for getting to have such great teachers to teach us.” –Mackenzie

Franklin Trail: Continued from page 1

than they had ever imagined to open the first phase in November 2013. the second phase of the trail is a well maintained edison dirt road that has existed for decades. it winds through Rancho monte Alegre, a massive ranch now under development, before coming to an end at the boundary of the National Forest. opening that leg has required much less construction—a couple of gates and signs to keep trail users on the prescribed path—and, therefore, minimal expense. Land use issues between Santa barbara County and Rancho monte Alegre have kept the second phase closed, but a trail agreement is expected to be finalized soon, murray said. once the agreement is approved by the board of Supervisors, the gate that divides the first two trail segments will be unlocked. The first phase includes a memorial bench perched at a scenic overlook, and the second phase will also include a bench hewn from the trunk of a monterey cypress tree. both benches honor major donors to the trail project, the first in memory of Carpinteria surfer/carpenter Frank Louda, and the second given by the family of Suzanne duca, a Carpinteria resident and outdoor enthusiast. duca chose the site for the newest bench. The final phase will lead through the National Forest to connect with an existing trail called Franklin trail Northside, which drops down to Jameson Lake and links to trail systems throughout Santa Ynez Valley. the Santa barbara County Trails Council is coordinating the final phase, which executive director mark Wilkinson said will closely follow the route of the historic trail that hasn’t seen use since the 1970s.

to identify the old trail before re-cutting the track. “the good thing is that there’s more or less existing trail tread … the problem is there are trees growing out of the trail,” said Wilkinson. depending on the grade of the historic trail and the construction necessary to create the new trail, phase three should cost around $10,000.

SIBLING SUCCESS

JAREN WILKE WITH BYU PHOTOS

Following the team’s run to the national championship game, Heather Olmstead recently was bumped up from assistant women’s volleyball coach at BYU to associate head coach under head coach and brother Shawn Olmstead, also pictured.

Shawn Olmstead, head coach of the BYU women’s volleyball team, vowed to grow his mustache during the NCAA tournament as long as the team kept winning. That upper-lip hair grew to unprecedented lengths as the unseeded Cougars played to an unprecedented depth in the tournament, making it all the way to the national championship before bowing out to defending champion Penn State.

Olmsteads co-coach BYU volleyball to NCAA ﬁnals BY DAN TERRY, VOLLEYBALL EDITOR There is no volleyball gene, but nobody told the Olmsteads that. The brother-sister coaching pair of Shawn and Heather Olmstead just wrapped up one of the most storied women’s volleyball seasons in Brigham Young University history, a Cinderella run that landed the program in its ﬁrst Division 1 NCAA Championship Finals. The sibling coaches grew up in the quaint Carpinteria home of parents Rick and Trudy Olmstead, who instilled a great appreciation for volleyball in each of their seven children. “Our family would always pepper in the front yard or even inside the house,” recalled Heather. Hanging above his desk at BYU, Shawn has a photo of himself with legendary, three-time Olympic gold medalist and all-time most winning beach player Karch Kiraly. Shawn was only a month-and-a-half old in the photo, and Kiraly was just in high school. Kiraly’s coach at the time was Rick, whom both Shawn and Heather heavily credit with shaping their drive as coaches, players

and as human beings in general. Shawn and Heather both played at Carpinteria High School. Shawn spent the ﬁrst half of his junior year at CHS convincing his buddies to switch over from their normal spring sports to volleyball and petition for the addition of the sport. When Shawn and Heather graduated from CHS, they went on to successful Division 1 collegiate careers at BYU and Utah State, respectively. Heather went on to play professionally in Europe, and Shawn went directly from winning his second national championship with BYU to a coaching career. Heather, on the other hand, was hesitant to take up a coaching mantle but was eventually convinced by her former coach to give it a shot. After a year of coaching at Utah State, she knew that she had made the right decision. “It was a way for me to continue to be involved in the sport I love and give young women the opportunity that I was given, to get a degree and play Division

After three years as BYU women’s volleyball assistant coach, Shawn was promoted to head coach and insisted that the school hire Heather as his assistant. “Heather is twice the coach I am, no doubt about it,” he said. 1 volleyball.” When Heather moved from assistant coach at Utah State to assistant coach at the University of Utah, Shawn landed in her former spot. Two years later, Shawn was grabbed up by his alma mater, BYU. After three years as BYU women’s volleyball assistant coach, Shawn was promoted to head coach and insisted that the school hire Heather as his assistant. “Heather is twice the coach I am, no doubt about it,” he said. That was four years ago. Since the Olmstead’s took the helm, BYU’s women’s volleyball team has broken into the elite ranks of Division 1 powerhouses. The

team earned two consecutive runs to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA playoffs in 2012 and 2013, and the Olmsteads had made a name for themselves. However, BYU still had not received the respect it deserved. After winning the West Coast Conference in 2014 as the best blocking team in the country, the end of the season polls still ranked the Cougars below the top 16 teams nationwide. They entered the NCAA tournament unseeded with the auto-bid awarded to them for winning their conference. BYU

Warrior girls soccer overpowers Rams 6-1

In their first ever Frontier League battle, Carpinteria High School girls soccer outpaced visiting Cate School 6-1. “We did a really good job of playing patiently, moving off the ball and getting our outside midﬁelders and outside defenders into the attack,” commented coach Charles Bryant. Kelsie Bryant headed in a Monica Garcia corner within the ﬁrst 10 minutes of the game to put the Warriors in control. Goals by Jenny Alaniz and Alexa Benitez padded the Warriors’ advantage to 3-0 by halftime. For the Rams (4-4, 1-3), a second half penalty kick by Carpinterian Isabela Montes De Oca represented the only

score. “We encountered a skilled and physical Carpinteria High School team that passed well and worked together at all ends of the field,” commented Cate coach Lisa Holmes. In the second half for the Warriors, Kelsie scored a second goal, and Ava Gropper notched her first goal of the year. Sofia Vargas finished the scoring by putting in a rebound off an Alejandra Alvarez shot. Natalie Saito contributed a first-half assist. “We have had a few good games in a row, and hopefully we can keep the momentum going,” Charles said. The Warriors improved to 5-6-1 overall and 3-2 in Frontier League with the victory.

Jan. 13 – Warrior girls soccer played a spirited game in defeating Fillmore High School 2-1 in a road Frontier League match. Jenny Alaniz touched in a ball she received from Jessica Meza to put the Warriors on the board midway through the first half. Meza scored in the second half on a combination play from Kelsie Bryant and Giselle Estrada that sprang her open. “We played with purpose, and we played physical which was good to see as we did not shy away from tackles or 50-50 balls,” commented coach Charles Bryant. Fillmore scored its goal in the final minutes.

Tori Kelley led the team with 11 points, followed by 10 for Cleek and nine for Monique Sanchez. Coach Dan Mercer credited the team’s 53-40 rebound advantage—led by Cleek’s 10 and Reed’s and Kelley’s nine apiece—as the difference-maker in the victory.

Cate School

Jan. 14 – Cate School was outpaced by league foe Foothill Tech 17-2. Foothill’s speed proved too much for the Rams, according to coach Nathan Alldredge. Sisters Anna and Ally Satterfield each scored a goal. “The good news is that the match showed a few obvious defensive fixes the Rams need to make, and they’ll be back stronger,” commented Alldredge.

Boys soccer

Jan. 14 – Cate boys soccer took highly touted Santa Paula High School to overtime but dropped its Tri-Valley League opener by a margin of 3-1 in Santa Paula. SP entered the game undefeated and carrying the seventh ranking in Division 4. Cate’s aggressive midfield play had the Cardinals off-balance from the start, commented coach Peter Mack. The Cardinals scored first 12 minutes into the contest and held a 1-0 halftime lead. The Rams pressed hard to open the second half, and their pressure paid off when Ben Jessup’s long throw found Djata Nyaawie near the far post for a goal in the 58th minute. The Cardinals created many opportunities in regulation but were turned away by Ram goalie Keller Mochel, who recorded 17 saves. The Rams entered overtime running on fumes, and the Cardinals made them pay twice—once in the 85th minute and again in the 88th. Jan. 16 – Cate boys soccer notched its first Tri-Valley League win, beating Malibu 3-0 at home. Cate controlled the game from the first whistle, not allowing Malibu a shot on goal the entire first half. Meanwhile, the Rams pressured Malibu into sloppy play and counter-attacked effectively. Djata Nyaawie picked up a goal in the 17th minute when Geoffrey Acheampong settled Joel Serugo’s long ball and crossed it into him on the back post. Nine minutes later, Christian Herman netted a shot off a pass from Acheampong. And then in the 38th minute, Iman Fardghassemi ripped a shot from the right side that the Sharks keeper had no chance of reaching. The Rams sat back a little in the second half but didn’t allow Malibu many scoring opportunities.

Boys basketball

Jan. 14 – Cate boys basketball fell 81-39 on a tough night at Malibu High School. “Malibu took advantage of Cate’s poor performance and overwhelmed them on the fastbreak,” commented coach Bryan Rodriguez. The Rams only converted 25 percent of field goals. Clinton Hall led the Rams with 10 points, Marko Pliso added nine points and Noah Somaratne and Nick Thomas each contributed seven. Jan. 16 – Hosting Thacher School, Cate fell behind early and could never find its stride in a 68-28 loss. Coach Bryan Rodriguez attributed the shortfall to poor shooting and a lack of cohesion despite a strong effort by the Rams. After the game, Rodriguez commented, “While this has been a very difficult stretch, our team is determined to rekindle our competitive fire and regain our confidence offensively. A significant portion of the season still remains, and we are all committed to doing our best until the very end.” Overall, the Rams are now 6-4 and remain winless at 0-4 in Tri-Valley League.

Jan 13 – Cate girls soccer overcame a 2-0 halftime deficit in a 3-2 Frontier League victory at Santa Clara High School. “We channeled some healthy halftime anger into our second half play and enjoyed almost immediate results,” commented coach Lisa Holmes. Isabela Montes De Oca scored on a penalty kick three minutes after the second half kick-off, and a few minutes later, Sophie Johnson tipped the ball to Maddie Becker who scored the second goal. Then, with 12 minutes to play in the game, Sumner Matthews sent a through ball between the Santa Clara defense. Montes De Oca got to the ball first and took off into the open field with two Santa Clara defenders on her heels, and she tucked the winner into the net.

Mikaela Li and Miriam Weiss finished with four points each; Amber Thiery had three, and Maliha Hollis had two.

Soup’s on

chef randy

RANDY GRAHAM This is a hearty vegan soup that is as tasty as it is easy to prepare. Even better than that, barley is a wholesome, highly nutritious grain and is thought to be an excellent food choice for those concerned about type-2 diabetes. It contains essential vitamins (niacin and thiamine) and minerals (iron, magnesium, zinc) and is an excellent source of dietary fiber. For those of us who watch our cholesterol, it is naturally cholesterol free and low in fat. When I first made this for my wife many years ago, I remember her reaction. She said, “I don’t really like barley, or at least I didn’t until now.” I think you’ll appreciate its nutty flavor and pleasant chewy texture.

Vegetable barley soup Ingredients

1 ½ Tablespoons olive oil 1 cup chopped onions 3 cloves garlic, minced ¼ teaspoon dried thyme 1 pound fresh mushrooms 2/3 cup pearl barley 2 stalks celery, sliced 2 large carrots, sliced ½ bay leaf 5 cups vegetable broth Salt and pepper to taste Dash of nutmeg

Directions

Sauté onions in a large soup pot on medium-high heat for approximately 5 minutes. Clean, remove stems and cut mushrooms into quarters. Add garlic, thyme and mushrooms. Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking for another 10 minutes. Add barley, celery, carrots, bay leaf and broth. Taste this base and if it is a little watery or just not tasty enough, add a teaspoon of vegetarian Better

Than Bouillon to perk it up. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low, cover and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes or until barley is tender.

Add nutmeg and salt and pepper. Remove bay leaf before serving.

Drought danger on the Carrizo Plain CHUCK GRAHAM

unpredictable wilderness Scanning with my high-powered optics, I panned across the Carrizo Plain from the foothills of the Caliente Range in search of ungulates such as Tule elk and pronghorn antelope. It’s late morning when I finally spot a single file procession of Tule elk, maybe 40 animals moving gradually west of me. A healthy mixture of cows and calves followed closely together across a field of wildflowers, where a carpet of tidy tips and owl’s clover brightened the plain. California’s Central Valley was once teeming with animals like Tule elk and pronghorn antelope. Loss of habitat, disease from livestock and overhunting took its toll on massive herds of ungulates and left places like the Carrizo Plain void of such wildlife. But in the late 1980s, the then California Department of Fish and Game embarked on changing a lifeless landscape. Herds of Tule elk were transplanted to the Carrizo Plain in 1988. Pronghorn antelope were restored to the plain in 1990. Yet the two species’ populations are heading in divergent paths. Tule elk are generalist feeders and have been able to adapt to perpetual drought conditions

by sustaining themselves on dry grasses. Pronghorn antelope on the other hand are specialists requiring flat, wide open spaces while foraging for forbs, non-grass species. A survey performed by the U.S. Geological Survey in November 2013 concluded of the 42 different plant species consumed by pronghorn, 26 were forbs. The other plants consumed were species of grasses and shrubs. “We have seen some dramatic fluctuations in most p op ulations depending on weather California’s pronghorn antelope populations have struggled to recover from loss of habitat, conditions,” contin- disease and overhunting.

While Unfortunately, rain totals have been a year, and according to the most recent taking these lands out of cultivation is a really low for California for the last five surveys, Stafford said there are somewhere definite positive for most of the Carrizo years, especially for places like the Car- between 350 and 400 Tule elk and 60 to species, it decreases habitat value for rizo Plain which is one of the sunniest 70 pronghorn in the greater Carrizo Plain pronghorn.” places in the Golden State.

grasslands or the surrounding mountain ranges. Pronghorn however are struggling with sustainability, but the CDFW is in the process of curbing this trend. Water troughs have been part of the Carrizo Plain for some time, but additional troughs have been added to aid declining pronghorn numbers. Stafford said the troughs are hooked up to water tanks in the existing system. They’ve also been providing supplemental food sources. However, their numbers are so low any negative fluctuations in their habitat could prove detrimental. “Pronghorn numbers have dropped to levels where any negative environmental factors will have serious impacts on the herds,” he said. “Moving more animals into the area without addressing the reasons for their decline would not be considered an option.” If pronghorn numbers continue to decline and get below a certain point, a wide variety of environmental events can keep pronghorn numbers low.

pronghorn left the arroyo and began loping eastward toward the rugged Elkhorn Plain, North America’s fastest running land mammal covering ground like no other animal on the Carrizo Plain.

Sister act

Meet Snow and Lilly. Just under 2 years old, the two beautiful sisters are flamepoint Siamese, predominantly white with pale orange points, blue eyes and pink pigment. They were rescued from a local vineyard during a recent marathon trap-neuter-return effort. Looking at their pictures, a cat person may think that Snow

and Lilly have Scottish Fold in them. No, the amputated ear tips are thanks to squamous cell carcinoma, courtesy of being left in a scorching sunny vineyard to fend for themselves. But Snow and Lilly don’t know about the SCC and amputation thing. According to their foster mother, they are bonded and love playing with each other. Snow is the smaller of the two and more outgoing; Lilly is a little shyer but a sweetie. Both are very affectionate. They love playing with toys and chasing each other. They are good with my other cats, even though their foster siblings hiss at them. Snow and Lilly are ready for their forever indoor home. If interested, contact Catalyst for Cats at 685-1563 or catalyst4cats@cox.net.

CVN beholds the Grand Canyon

The Mayoral family visited the Grand Canyon for the first time. In addition to hiking the rim and Bright Angel Trail, Celeste, 8, and Sierra, 10, earned their Junior Ranger badges by learning how the canyon was formed, identifying geological landmarks, attending a fossil walk and learning that the most dangerous animal at the Grand Canyon is—the squirrel!

CVN hits Keystone slopes

Gregory Hash and his wife Betty recently spent their coldest Christmas ever in Keystone, Colo. They took the family vacation to visit their 23-yearold daughter, who relocated to Keystone in order to live near to where she could snowboard. The Christmas cold snap kept the thermometer at or below 10 degrees for the extent of the trip.

Volleyball: Continued from page 15

first faced off against unseeded Seton Hall and won in three consecutive games. From there, the Cougars became the eternal underdogs of the tournament. Their next opponent was number 11 ranked Arizona. After dropping the first game, the Cougars managed to rally back and win the match on Arizona’s home court in four games. With that win, BYU was on its way to the Regional Semifinals. “I think our win at Arizona in the second round really gave our team confidence and some swagger heading to the Sweet 16,” remarked Heather. After knocking off sixth-ranked Florida State in four games and then 14th-ranked Nebraska in three, BYU made the Final Four to face off against Texas, the second seed. The Cougars dramatically upended Texas in four sets. The Cougars’ road ended in the national championship—the first title match for the program—against fifth-ranked Penn State, the defending national champion. BYU held its own in the first two sets but ultimately lost 3-0 (25-21, 26-24, 25-14). A near miss in their bid for the national championship only further motivated the siblings, who now have their names planted firmly on the national volleyball map. Shawn was named the American Volleyball Coaches Association National Coach of the Year, and Heather was promoted to Associate Head Coach for the Cougars.
