Architect to test city appetite for bluffs development BY PETER DUGRÉ
Architect Barton Myers has sent notice that an application to build an office and residences in two lots east of Viola Fields is imminent. The Toro Canyon Road resident and owner of Barton Myers & Associates distributed an informal update to city council members and media in January providing some detail on a project called Punto de Vista that would see the current S&S Seeds building demolished and an office building and several residences constructed on 7.5 acres at 6155 and 6175 Carpinteria Ave. Carpinteria Community Development Director Jackie Campbell said a completed application for the project has not hit her desk. Myers addressed a joint meeting of the city council and planning commission in November 2013, proposing a 14,000-square-foot office building and 18 residences at the empty lot adjacent to S&S Seeds, but has since expanded plans to include both lots. “It was a breakthrough getting the two sites together,” Myers said. The area is zoned as an Industrial Research Park, a designation that could allow some mixed-use development, but city planners tepidly received the residence-heavy concept. Currently, the area known to city planners as Bluffs II is developed completely in office buildings. In a recent phone conversation, Myers, an acclaimed architect and recipient of numerous national awards over a career spanning back to the 1960s, called the updated plan “more of a campus” and said he hopes to make a gem of a project at “the last prominent really

Big waves and sunny skies rendezvoused in Carpinteria early this week to create a crowdworthy spectacle at Jelly Bowl on Feb. 9. All the regulars turned out to mull over the big question: Paddle out or simply enjoy the warm sun and the bird’s eye view of impressive surf? Photographer David Powdrell captured the meeting of the minds from across the railroad tracks.
Opt-out issue at the forefront of vaccination debate BY DALE MYERS
Following an outbreak of measles in December of 2014 that reportedly began with a group of unvaccinated people visiting Disneyland and has now spread to 17 states, parents nationwide are advocating that schoolage children not be allowed to opt-out of vaccinations in order to prevent contaminating others. Vaccinepreventable diseases, such as measles and pertussis, are seen as a serious threat in elementary schools in particular. In fact, the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department has reported 85 cases of pertussis this year, with 36 occurring in schools and the death of an infant due to pertussis. The spread of pertussis, aka whooping cough, has been linked to a high number of parents that chose to opt-out of vaccinations. California law requires children entering kindergarten to be fully vaccinated against a number of diseases, but the law makes an exception for parents declining vaccines on personal or religious grounds, and California is one of only 20 states that allow personal-belief exemptions. In 2012, California Governor Jerry Brown signed legislation requiring parents who exclude their children from immunization requirements to submit a signed statement that they received information about risks
“Measles is one of the most communicable diseases. Those who get vaccinated protect themselves, their children and their community from diseases that spread.”
––Susan Klein-Rothschild, Santa Barbara County Public Health Department
and benefits of vaccines. However, despite warnings from health-care professionals that not immunizing children because of personal beliefs can put entire communities at risk, many parents still choose to optout because of religious beliefs as well as those who believe there is a link between vaccinations and autism, despite a 2004 report by the Institute of Medicine that concluded there is no link between autism and the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine.

A midnight fire outside the Summerland Winery tasting room was extinguished quickly and left about $10,000 in damages in the early morning of Feb. 7. According to the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District, at 12:45 a.m., the resident above the tasting room at 2330 Lillie Ave. smelled smoke, which he thought was coming from inside his unit. When he couldn’t find the source of the smoke, he went outside and found a fire burning on the exterior of the winery tasting room, next to the entrance.

State covers $500K of water district’s Cachuma pump costs
State funding for the Lake Cachuma Emergency Pumping Facility Project will account for the lion’s share of Carpinteria Valley Water District’s $810,000 cost. Each of the three agencies that rely on Lake Cachuma water via the Tecolote Tunnel received $500,000 toward the pump that will likely become necessary to feed water into the tunnel this spring unless significant rainfall occurs first. The total cost of the project is $7.7 million, which has been divided among CVWD, City of Santa Barbara, Goleta Water District and Montecito Water District based on annual water allocations. CVWD’s share is 12.2 percent of the total. District General Manager Charles Hamilton said that other grant funds will pay CVWD’s remaining costs for the project, meaning customers won’t be burdened with additional charges to account for the pump system. CVWD was initially excluded from the grant funds, but State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson and Assemblyman Das Williams worked with the district, the Department of Water Resources, the State Water Resources Control Board and Governor Jerry Brown’s office to ensure that monies were ultimately awarded. The funding was announced at a press conference on Jan. 23 at the Santa Barbara offices of the Cachuma Operation and Maintenance Board.

Obituary
Julie Kay Loewenstern Levy 8/2/1943 – 1/25/2015
Julie Kay Loewenstern Levy, 25-year resident of Carpinteria, peacefully passed away on Sunday, Jan. 25 after ongoing complications with COPD. She had all four of her children by her side. Julie’s death was preceded by her parents, Morris and Norma Loewenstern, as well as her younger sister, Linda Loewenstern Reid. She is survived by her youngest sister, Marci Ellison, her four children, Lisa Jo Levy, Daniel Rafael Levy, Kaycie Rene Levy D’Auria, and Joshua Morris Levy, and her six grandchildren, Alec Reid and Colin Fleisher, Soraya and Sophia Levy, and Linnae and Silas D’Auria. Julie was born in St. Petersburg, FL, where her father was based in the U.S. Coast Guard. She was raised in Amarillo, Texas. As a child, Julie’s passions led her to become an accomplished pianist and organist. She played for the local church and was called to accompany various ensembles and individuals. She sang with Tascosa High School’s Septet, and as a senior was honored to be elected “Miss Southern Belle” by her classmates. She was gracious and graceful, kind and considerate. After studying music at Arizona State University and West Texas State University, she moved to Denver, where she met and married John Levy, her husband of 23 years. Together, they raised their four children in the foothills above Golden, Colo.

W h i l e h e r c h i l d re n were school-aged, Julie expressed her creative energies by excelling in cake decorating, sewing elaborate Halloween costumes, and organizing school carnivals, homecomings and after-prom galas. This led her down a career path in event planning, prompting her to earn certification in floral design and become a CBA (Certified Balloon Artist). In 1989 Julie moved to Carpinteria to live near her two sisters and brother-inlaw, Bobby Reid. She absolutely loved her life in Carpinteria, commenting regularly that she “lived in Paradise.” In 1992, Julie started a business called Artistic Flowers and Balloons, which she ran out of her home for 15 years. Her business gained a devoted clientele base from Goleta to Oxnard, and she became known locally as “The Balloon Lady.” Julie’s beautiful large-scale balloon sculptures and stunning floral design pieces graced many charity events, private parties, large festivals, weddings and celebrations of every variety, including pieces for the Rose Parade, UCSB Graduation, Gay Pride, Dalmatian Dreams, and the Chamber of Commerce. Julie was truly a gifted artist and she loved making people feel happy. She will always be remembered for her devotion to family and community, her creative gifts and ongoing volunteerism, and her honest and uplifting, no-nonsense attitude. She will also be remembered for her love of Disney films and themes, which she loved sharing with her grandchildren. She was a straight shooter, emanating graciousness, good humor, and kindness. Julie will sorely be missed by all who had the great fortune of knowing her. On Sunday, Feb. 22 at 1 p.m., there will be a celebration of life Memorial Service for Julie at the home of John and Vera Welty at Welty’s Hilltop Flowers, 4526 Foothill Road. Look for balloons.
BLUFFS:
Continued from page 1 beautiful piece of land on the coast.” Design of the office building and homes, which would be terraced in and oriented for capitalizing on ocean views, would fit Myers’ signature modernist style using steel frame industrial architecture. At the 2013 meeting, Mayor Gregg Carty said, “It’s kind of exciting that there could be residential on the bluffs. This might be overdoing it, but I have an open mind.” The main sticking point on the original proposal was the ratio of residence to office. Any mixed-uses on the properties would have to consist of a majority office, and Myers has stated that the intention is to build at least 51 percent in office, which he said should satisfy the city’s zoning codes. The original proposal included 3.5 acres owned by Ivan Reitman and Tom Pollock, who had an approved plan in 1998 to build a post-production studio on the Destined property that never broke ground. Since for then, the May Family Trust, owner of the Grace building currently occupied by S&S Seeds has come into the plan.

The hysteria is spreading to taking away parents’ rights to advocate for their children by mandating vaccines.
––Gail Marshall
Science not bulletproof in vaccination debate
I will respectfully disagree with Mike Wondolowski’s comments (Lay of the Land, CVN, Feb. 5) about science denial and the “completely preventable” measles outbreak at Disneyland. I am not a science denier. In fact science tells us that while vaccines are effective in most cases, they are not effective in all cases. Every day there is something in the media vilifying families who choose not to vaccinate their children. The hysteria is spreading to taking away parents’ rights to advocate for their children by mandating vaccines. This is a complicated issue. Fear and loathing does not yield critical thinking and careful consideration. As far as the question, why do parents elect not to vaccinate their children? There are many reasons, but here are a couple: Children receive 25 vaccines injected into their bodies by the age of 2 years and 31 by the age of 6. The National Childhood Vaccination Injury Act of 1986 protects pharmaceutical companies and medical providers from lawsuits by parents who claim vac-
cinations harmed their children. Parents must go in front of a special tribunal set up by Congress in the event of a vaccination injury. This “vaccine court” has awarded nearly $2 billion dollars from the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund for injury and death claims. Vaccines do in fact cause injury and death. At this time there are thousands of claims being processed. I don’t have all the answers, but I am sticking to the proposition that education is needed to make an informed choice, that assessing all sides of any issue is critical and that a parent’s right to choose the healthy path for their children should be inviolate.

Right wing rhetoric rings predictable
Steve Urbanovich’s letter last week, along with the previous week’s rightwing rant, truly reflect how Republicans deal with and approach the issues of the day: with empty rhetoric and very little intellectual substantiation. Add a dose of paranoia, and the usual right-wing discourse is complete. Maybe that’s why their party is being left behind.

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery? ADAM CAIRA FILE PHOTO
The following counts taken from Feb. 2 to Feb. 8 were compiled from Carpinteria Seal Watch volunteer reports. Carpinteria harbor seal beach closure runs from Dec. 1 to June 1 each year. Seal Watch volunteers are still welcome to sign up by calling 684-2247.
High Adult Count
Visitors
173 6 High Pup Count
Volunteers counted 1,138 in the overlook enclosure. It’s always interesting to meet people from far off; this week saw visitors from Sweden, Japan, China, Peru, Brazil, Columbia, Saudi Arabia, Hungary, Canada, Germany, Wisconsin, Oregon, New York, Pennsylvania, Utah, Illinois, Iowa, Washington, Alabama, Minnesota, New Jersey, Idaho and Wyoming.
Disturbances
Harbor seals need rest on land but were disturbed twice by beach walkers, twice by pier activity, and by an airplane and helicopter.
Natural History Notes
Harbor seals use their vibrissae (“whiskers”) to find food in dark waters and at night. Each vibrissa can move independently. Prey moving underwater creates vibrations, which the seal can follow. Harbor seals eat a variety of ` fish, as well as squid and some crustaceans and molluscs.
Watching “What Not to Wear” used to be a favorite pastime for me and my friend Stacy. We usually had additional advice to offer the guests but thought show hosts Stacy London and Clinton Kelly did a fine job helping women find their true, flattering style in the end. One aspect of the show that stunned me was when the guest would receive a gift card for $5,000 and would exclaim as if on cue, “I don’t know how I am ever going to spend that!” Amateurs! I could spend that money without breaking a sweat because I like to shop, know what works and does not work for me, and know what I need and will wear. Sure, I make some mistakes, but I have learned my lessons and like to share what I’ve learned in this column. Let’s imagine you are a woman and have $500 to spend on a week’s worth of outfits. You will want to get the most out of each piece and want to have a clear shopping plan. For the sake of this column’s length restraints, I am going to assume that you are a woman over 30 who works in a semi-professional environment. This means you are neither a lawyer in a conservative law firm nor a barista. In terms of color, I hope you have learned from Wardrobe Wisdom about the difference between warm and cool tones. Therefore, if I suggest you purchase a navy blazer and you look better in warmer tones, you will know to look for a teal or brown blazer instead. Shoes are the foundation of any ensemble (after undergarments). A good-looking, quality pair of shoes will elevate your outfit while a shabby pair will detract from it. If you like heals, invest in a nice pair of pumps or wedges in a neutral color like black, pewter, brown, burgundy or navy. Conversely, if you feel better in low or no heels, get a pair in the colors mentioned previously in a ballerina or pointy-toe flat style. Decide if you prefer skirts or pants or if you like both. Then get two: one in a neutral color (black, navy, gray, brown, burgundy, or red), and another in a pattern (pinstripe, floral print or geometric design). Make sure one of the colors in the pattern goes with your shoes. Pencil or A-line skirts are the most versatile and flattering. If you are fuller in the hips, get the latter style. A pencil skirts creates the illusion of curves in a straighter figure. You are half-dressed now! It’s time for some tops. I think a long sleeve sweater

More Info
The Carpinteria harbor seal rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach. Please remember not to bring dogs, bicycles or loud voices to view the seals. Harbor seals, when disturbed, may flee and become separated from their pups. Volunteers ask that dogs remain outside the rope area at all times. Call 684-2247 or email carpsealwatch@gmail.com if you are interested in volunteering. To find out more, visit sealwatchcarpinteria.com.
in a neutral color is a winner, worn alone or with a blouse underneath. Look for it in year-round fabrics such as merino wool or finely knit cotton with a crew (not too high), ballet, V or scoop neck. Some women adore button up, collared shirts and others do not. If this is a style you like, look for one in a solid (white, cream, black or navy) and one in a print. I also think a denim shirt that has some tailoring so it is flattering looks good with skirts and pants when it is tucked in (or tied in front if you work in a casual environment or wear it outside of work). Knit tops (aka T-shirts) are the alternate choice for what to wear with your skirts and pants. Look for ones that have some shape and are not boxy. If you find a fit you love and the price is reasonable, purchase at least two—one in white or cream and the other in a color that goes with your pants and/or skirt and sweater. Invest in a classic blazer or structured (not loose and sloppy) cardigan sweater that you can wear over your tops and that looks good with your bottom garments. Again, look for this piece in a color that will go with everything you have so far. Finally, think about accessories, which will allow you to wear pieces repeatedly without looking like you are doing this. You can find reasonably priced ones at Twice as Nice consignment store and at the many second hand and antique stores along Linden Avenue, such as Whimsy, Homestead Antiques and Trading, Peggy’s Used Treasures and Magpie Collections. Look for simple bracelets, necklaces or earrings that will go with all your outfits as well as more colorful, interesting ones to liven things up. Keep an eye out for scarves as well since they will add a touch of chic to what you are wearing. And don’t forget about belts. I’ve learned to peruse magazines and Pinterest for tips on how to wear them. As a rule, the wider the belt, the more it accentuates your waist. Once you purchase a nice-fitting pair of dark wash jeans and a pair of casual shoes, you are ready to play around with your various pieces. Fashion experts say this all the time, and it is true: Treat your closet as a dressing room. Try on clothing in different ways, mixing and matching until you have created (at least) five outfits you truly like and feel great in. Who needs $5,000 anyway?

City sales tax revenue slightly lower than expected BY DALE MYERS
The Carpinteria City Council in its Feb. 9 meeting voted unanimously to approve midyear adjustments to the city’s 201415 adopted budget. John Thornberry, administrative services director for the City of Carpinteria, reported that salestax revenue is down $31,000 from the city’s adopted budget. Carpinteria City Manager Dave Durflinger added that the midyear report was “unremarkable,” and on the sales-tax side, gas prices are down. “This will affect next year’s budget,” said Durflinger. Additionally, the city’s 201415 budget projects no significant new sales-tax producers expected to come online in the next year. In other business, the council voted unanimously in favor of approving an amendment to the 2013 employment agreement of the city manager to make it consistent with other management staff. Durflinger’s annual base wage will bump up from $143,125.40 to $147,104.71, a 2.75 percent increase. His retirement contribution will rise by 1.25 percent, to a total of 4.5 percent. Medical insurance premium employee cost sharing of .029 percent of annual salary, or $42.66 monthly, will begin the first pay period of 2016. Councilman Brad Stein said of Durflinger, “You lead by example and are so steadfast in the community. Your actions speak for themselves.” Additionally, the council voted unanimously in favor of submitting a grant application to the State Department of
Housing and Community Development to fund the purchase and installation of new playground equipment and other park amenities for Memorial Park, which is located on the corner of Santa Ynez Avenue and Aragon Drive. Director of Community Development Jackie Campbell said the city could be granted $330,000 to replace some of the oldest play equipment in the city’s park system, and while discussing financial results earlier in the meeting, the city manager also reported that the cost to maintain the city’s parks has gone up. Another unanimous decision by the council authorized the city manager to sign the South Coast Energy Efficiency Partnership (SCEEP) Agreement extension. The SCEEP program is a partnership between the cities of Carpinteria, Goleta and Santa Barbara and the County of Santa Barbara, Southern California Edison Company and Southern California Gas Company designed to assist local governments with effectively leading their communities in increasing energy efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and protecting air quality. “It is extremely important to collaborate with Southern California Gas and Edison,” said Vice-Mayor Fred Shaw. “The closer we get to sustainability, the better off we are.” The next City Council meeting will take place on Monday, Feb. 23, at 5:30 p.m. in the Council Chamber at City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Ave.
VACCINATIONS: CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
“I bought into the autism belief years ago,” said Amber Shields, who is in nursing school and a parent of two Carpinteria Family School students. “I later did my own research when my kids started school and realized it was important to get them vaccinated. The biggest thing for me was whooping cough. I didn’t want my kids to be at risk.” The Carpinteria Family School had a 50 percent opt-out rate in 2013 for kindergartners. Though this is one of the highest rates in the county, it translates to just a handful of children given the very small size of the school. Canalino School, which houses the Carpinteria Family School, had a low opt-out rate, and many parents of Canalino students have expressed concern that having unvaccinated children on campus puts their children at risk. Both Canalino and Family schools have planned parent information nights with medical professionals to discuss student vaccinations. As a whole, Santa Barbara County for the 2013-14 school year had a personal-belief exemption of 4.72 percent of kindergartners, which dropped to 2.94 percent for the 2014-15 school year, according to the California Department of Public Health. At the Feb. 10 Carpinteria Unified School District Board of Education meeting, boardmember Terry Hickey Banks brought up Hope School District’s recent decision to exclude unvaccinated students in the event of a measles outbreak. She commented that CUSD will be examining its vaccination policies and noted that she has a grandson under the age of 1 who is vulnerable to contagious diseases. “It’s a little bit scary,” she said of the potential for disease outbreak. “I don’t think we’ve ever been in this situation.” Despite the fact that the current measles outbreak has not arrived to Santa Barbara County, the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department is urging county residents to get vaccinated for measles, which can be difficult to detect. The highly contagious virus can be contracted through the air or infected surfaces and resembles a common cold in its early stages. Further symptoms arise a few days later, such as conjunctivitis and a rash beginning on the face or neck and progressing downward. “Measles is one of the most communicable diseases,” said Susan Klein-Rothschild, deputy director of community health for the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department. “Those who get vaccinated protect themselves, their children and their community from diseases that spread.” According to the Santa Barbara County Health Department, measles can lead to pneumonia, ear infection or inflammation in the brain, and one or two out of every 1,000 infections leads to death. The most vulnerable are the young and unvaccinated, including newborns too young to receive the initial MMR vaccine suitable for 12- to 15-month-olds, toddlers who have not yet received the second dosage at 4-6 years of age, and individuals who have opted-out of the vaccine altogether. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is reporting more adult cases of measles than usual during this latest outbreak, and that the United States last year saw its highest number of measles cases in two decades, with California reporting the greatest number of cases. The CDC states that any slowdown in vaccinations could undo the work over years and cause deadly diseases to return. “Before vaccinations, approximately 500 people in the United States died annually from measles,” said Klein-Rothschild.
CUSD considers extra summer week
Local kids may look forward to a longer summer break this year. Surveys that go out this week will assess whether Carpinteria Unified School District parents and staff want to return to an academic calendar with a winter break shortened from three to two weeks and a summer that reabsorbs the time off. The district lengthened its winter break in 2003 in response to the large number of local families that travel during the holiday and failed to return in time for class to start. At that point, the district’s state funding depended on students in seats, and the post-break absences took a toll on the budget. Changes to the funding model mean that a traditional two-week winter break would not have an impact on revenues. Another consideration for the upcoming school year is a full week off at Thanksgiving. Carpinteria schools currently close Wednesday through Friday for the holiday; Santa Barbara schools are shut the whole week. After weighing feedback from parents and teachers, district staff will draft a 2015-2016 calendar, which should be presented to the school board for consideration at its March 10 meeting.
Teachers report positive progress in Common Core math
The wrinkles in common core math implementation are being ironed out and teachers in Carpinteria Unified School District are seeing some exciting results from the new curriculum, the board of education learned at its Feb. 10 meeting. Teachers Kristy Guerrero and Chanci Chiu, who are on special assignment to shepherd the district through the dramatic shift in its approach to math learning, reported on CUSD’s progress. Common core math, they explained, requires students to develop a deeper understanding of math concepts. In the past, California schools have taught math as a “performance subject,” said Guerrero, one that involved memorization of procedures and mimicry of teachers. Now teachers are shifting into the role of facilitators who help students develop reasoning skills and equip them with multiple strategies to motivate logical thinking. “The learning is put more on the students’ laps,” said Guerrero, who later added that common core is “not looking at math as a way to perform and memorize and spit out answers.” Teachers and students have faced a learning curve in the move to common core. Chiu emphasized that providing
CUSD teachers with professional learning opportunities has been and will continue to be crucial in the successful implementation of common core. Board members asked how English learners have responded to an approach that requires more discourse, to which Guerrero said, “There is now more opportunity to develop language over the course of the day because math is a conversation.” Kindergarten and first-grade teachers have found the change to common core most seamless because their students did not begin the year with expectations for math instruction any other way. Adapting to new methods has been more challenging in higher grades. Guerrero and Chiu said they were pleased that the state had recently released assessments that would allow CUSD to better monitor student progress and help teachers adjust instruction to student needs. New curriculum options also were recently released and are being previewed in CUSD now. They will be piloted in the fall and adopted the following school year. ––Lea Boyd

duncan’s reel deal MATT DUNCAN
“Black Sea”
I tend not to like submarine movies. They just remind me that stress and boredom are not mutually exclusive. Yeah, all those depth charges, red flashing lights, sweaty faces and steam are plenty stressful. But, my goodness, they also can be pretty dull. It’s like a slow, constant drip of water on your skin: both monotonous and torture. I would not call “Black Sea” torture, though. It’s not a day in the park either, nor is it a quiet evening in, or even a swashbuckling adventure. It is predictably watchable. “Black Sea” makes sure to remind you of the darker, and perhaps more intriguing, days of submarining—the Cold War, in particular, but also some of the Nazi U-Boats and World War II. But this movie is not really about all that. It is about Captain Robinson (Jude Law), who is a present-day submarine captain working for a corporation that, you know, needs submarines. That is, until he gets laid off. After all, who really needs submarines these days? Robinson is pissed and doesn’t know what to do. He dedicated his whole life to submarining—and even sacrificed relationships with his son and former wife—and doesn’t really have anything to fall back on. But then a friend—also an out-ofsorts ex-submariner—tells him about this really hush-hush, really dangerous, certainly very illegal, opportunity. He tells Robinson that once upon a time the Soviets made a deal with the Nazis that involved shipping (via submarine) tens of millions of dollars in solid gold back over to the Third Reich. But on the way back through the Black Sea, the goldladen submarine crashed. Either everyone forgot about the submarine—kinda a lot going on back then—or else they could not get to it, because, according to Robinson’s friend, the submarine is still there. So of course what could be better for out-of-work sailors than to go on a treasure hunt? And that’s just what they do. They get their hands on an old Soviet sub, assemble a half-Russian, halfBritish crew and set sail for the wreck. The good-hearted, magnanimous Robinson tells his crew that, after paying their backers, they are going to split the treasure evenly among themselves. Jackpot! Right? Well, the problem is, the divers start to think, “Why does that there cook get as much as me?” And the beastly Russian engine-room worker thinks, “Well if one of these Brits happens to die on the job, there is more for the rest of us.” In other words, discontent is sown. And of course it only gets worse, because, as we all know, a ride on a

submarine is never smooth—whether it is a power failure, sinking below crush depth, enemy torpedoes and depth charges (which, mercifully, do not make an appearance in this film) or just those random yet seemingly ubiquitous hull breaches, something must go awry. I’m pretty sure Murphy Law’s was made with submarining in mind. All that is to say, “Black Sea” has plenty of the stress and tension you would expect from a submarine movie. You really do feel like it would absolutely definitely suck to be on a submarine when something goes wrong. And I, at least, had the opportunity to once again thank my lucky stars that I am a landlubber. But, for all its heart-pounding, stressinducing drama, “Black Sea” remains strikingly conventional. This or that particular scene may not be predictable, but the movie as a whole sure is. Jude Law and the rest of the cast do an admirable job bringing the amusing (albeit contrived) story to life. But all the plot points just feel too familiar. So yes, you will still feel the stress, just like you will still feel a punch in the gut even if you know it (or something like it) is coming. But whereas a punch in the gut always feels pretty fresh—it never gets old, if you know what I mean—“Black Sea” does feel somewhat stale. “Black Sea” is rated R for language throughout, some graphic images and violence.

Vehicle inventory comes up short
A business owner on Rose Lane noticed that after several weeks of leaving a company vehicle parked among a fleet of automobiles, it had vanished on Jan. 23. The last time the white truck was accounted for had been Jan. 3. Both sets of keys to the vehicle remained at the business. None of the nearby businesses nor the victim’s business had exterior surveillance footage to have captured the car thief in the act.
Driven to drugs
A man, 33, who was pulled over on Via Real on Jan. 30 at 12:08 a.m., was so amped up that a deputy observed his jugular vein throbbing in his neck. Also, his eyes were red, his pupils were constricted and he was sweating profusely from his head. The man, who reportedly was nearly inaudibly soft-spoken, told officers he was clean and sober but had once been arrested for being on mushrooms. In a sobriety test, the man estimated 30 seconds had elapsed in just 12 seconds. His blood alcohol content registered 0.00, so deputies arrested the man, whose heart rate clocked over 100 beats per minute, for driving under the influence of drugs. Upon booking, deputies learned that it was the man’s fourth DUI arrest in the past decade.
iPhone jacking
A man waiting in earnest for the delivery of two iPhones closely tracked their progress toward his 8th Street doorstep on the UPS website. He also reportedly kept an eye on his stoop for the man in the brown suit who should be bearing his valuable parcel. As time ticked by, he noticed the online status of the parcel change to delivered. He looked outside the door and discovered nothing. He called UPS and the company reportedly said it was unable to offer additional assistance. T-mobile, from which the man had ordered the phones, said thieves would not be able to activate the phones and that they’d send replacements. There was no evidence available in the case of the missing phones.
Hook, line and sinker
A woman contacted by a stranger outside of a Linden Avenue liquor store on Jan. 31 at about 1 p.m. was reeled in by promises of big lottery winnings but ended up losing over $2,000 in cash and jewelry after falling victim to an elaborate scam. The stranger, a young woman who stated she was from Oxnard, initially asked the victim, 63, for assistance in interpreting paperwork. She lured the victim to a vehicle, which had a man leaning on it. The man provided more
detail. They had a winning lottery ticket but could not claim the prize because they lacked identification, he said. The victim could help by turning in the ticket using her ID. The victim got into the vehicle to help. Inside, the man conducted a phone call on his speakerphone. Another man answered and explained that each of the three vehicle occupants would need to come up with $10,000 in order to claim the prize. The driver pulled over and exited the vehicle for a short time. When he returned, he said he had rounded up his $10,000 portion. The victim was then shuttled to her Carpinteria home and told to gather as much cash and jewelry as she could get her hands on. She retrieved $1,500 in cash and over $1,000 worth of gold jewelry
and deposited the whole bounty in the center console of the vehicle along with her cell phone. At that point, the driver told the woman to retrieve a piece of mail to document her residence, a requirement for claiming the lottery winnings. The victim exited the vehicle again. When she returned, the pair of scam artists had vanished. Later in the day she attempted to call the stolen phone and a man answered. He said the victim had the wrong number and hung up. Nobody answered follow up calls. Deputies attempted to collect exterior surveillance footage from businesses near to where the interaction had begun but found no evidence.

ERIN MAKER
We all have seen the signs at the local parks, beaches and trailheads. Please clean up after your pet. Many of these signs target dog owners, but I’ve seen them in some areas also mention horses and even goats. We all know that if you have a pet, you are supposed to pick up after it. But not everyone knows why. I am a dog owner. Growing up, we had farm animals and always had to clean out the horse stalls and the cow barn, and the manure was used as fertilizer once it had gone through the composting process. Like most people, we never cleaned up after our dogs unless they defecated in an inconvenient area. I don’t really remember when I first saw a pet waste bag dispenser with a sign suggesting I pick up after my pet; it seems like there were none, and then suddenly they were everywhere. So why do we pick up after our pets? The obvious reason is so that there is not pet waste everywhere. It smells, and most of us have experienced stepping in it at one time or another. I know that more than once I’ve experienced that “What is that smell…oh, no” feeling after being outdoors and getting into a car or walking into the house, when you realize that you have poop embedded in your shoe. But smell isn’t the only reason. The fecal matter of humans and our pets can introduce foreign pathogens, which contaminate the environment. Pathogen is a broad term for anything that can spread disease, and poop in the environment can contribute to a variety of diseases. If you walk your dog along the Carpinteria Bluffs, and your dog is curious and wants to smell the droppings another dog made that were not cleaned up, your dog could pick up a variety of diseases that might be present in those droppings. It’s not just your dog that is at risk. Pet waste can spread disease to humans and has been listed as one of the top contributors to water pollution. The Environmental Protection Agency has estimated that waste from 100 dogs over a span of two or three days can contribute enough bacteria to the environment to temporarily close
down a bay, and all watersheds within 20 miles of it, to recreational activities. And while we don’t have a bay off of Carpinteria, our beaches face the same pollution risks. Maybe you are not an ocean person, but even leaving waste in your yard for an extended period of time is dangerous. Pet waste begins to break down in the soil, and when it rains it can enter the local water table. Picking up after your pet is important for many reasons. But just bagging poop isn’t enough. It is important to make sure that bag makes it into a trashcan so it can be properly disposed of. I have seen bags left along a trail by some well-intentioned pet owner who wanted to do the right thing and clean up after their pet, only to forget to take the bag with them on their way out to throw away. People may not want to carry their pets waste with them on a sunny day hike because it doesn’t smell good, or they don’t want to carry anything up the trail, but there are ways around that. My dog carries his own pack on hikes, and I put pet waste bags in that. Or, if you don’t want to do that, double bag the waste. Pet owners enjoy spending time in the great outdoors with their animals. But remember, so does everyone else. Be respectful of the area and the environment, and clean up after your dog every time.

Polio eradication tales told to Morning Rotary
The Rotary Club of Carpinteria Morning got a first hand account of how a team of Rotarians and volunteers helped to eradicate polio in moradabad, one of the poorest cities in India. Presenter Wade Nomura shared his personal experiences of how he and wife Roxanne participated in a National Immunization Day in February of 2010 along with 3,300 volunteers in several cities. As a result, over 916,000 children were inoculated against polio. Since then, india has been declared polio free. According to Bill Gates, “Rotary continues to be the heart and soul of polio eradication.” Rotary polio eradication efforts have also established an active disease surveillance network in all countries that is being used for other health interventions such as measles vaccinations, deworming tablets and mosquito bed nets.

Trifecta of CHS girls teams heads to playoffs February 12 - 18, 2015
Warriors and Rams soccer play to 1-1 stalemate Teams remain in TVL 1st place tie BY PETER DUGRÉ
The result on the field at Cate School on Feb. 6 reflected Tri-Valley League standings. Both Cate School and Carpinteria High School notched a secondhalf goal in the 1-1 tie and neither could find the back of the net in overtime. The teams were locked at 6-1-1 in TVL following the tie and have two games left to play. Cate defeated Carpinteria 2-1 in the first head-to-head of the season, giving the Rams the upper hand in the season series. This season marks the first that the squads compete in the same league. In both matches between the teams, the Warriors created more offensive opportunities but were routinely turned away by Cate’s back line of Joel Serugo and Patty Thomas along with stalwart goalkeeper Keller Mochel. Mochel recorded 10 saves on Feb. 6 and disrupted countless other Warrior attacks. “It was a dominating effort from (Mochel),” commented Cate coach Peter Mack. Cate midfielder Geoffrey Acheampong scored the game’s first goal in the 55th minute. The ball-handling wizard collected a long pass from Joel Serugo and dashed by several Warriors into the left side of the box before finding his spot and rifling a hard, low left footer into the net. The Warriors netted the equalizer on a free kick from Juan Pablo Alvarez from 30 yards away from the goal. Alvarez struck a ball along the ground and it deflected through a mix of Warrior and Ram players before being redirected and skirting by a diving Mochel. The Warriors sailed several other second half opportunities over the net. Warrior goalkeeper Lalo Delgado deflected a near-miss free kick from Acheampong, tipping it out by a fingertip, to keep the Rams off the board in overtime. “Salvaging a tie against a team like Carpinteria—especially when we didn’t play up to our own expectations—is a good and fortunate result,” stated Mack.

Cate’s Geoffrey Acheampong battles CHS’s Juan Pablo Alvarez for possession in a deadlocked 1-1 result on the Cate Mesa on Feb. 6. In the tight battle for Carpinteria bragging rights this season, the two squads have played 170 minutes of soccer and Cate owns the slight advantage in goals 3-2. “Our boys played with heart, left their soul, sweat and blood on the battlefield and they did it for one another, top to bottom. Unidos is what we are,” commented coach Leo Quintero.

Girls water polo
Cate School
Feb. 4 – Cate girls water polo hung in the game but eventually faded in a 9-4 loss to visiting Malibu High School. Ally Satterfield had three goals and Halie Straathof added one. “There were periods of strong play and some frustrating periods as well, but the Rams played tough until the end,” commented coach Nathan Alldredge. Feb. 6 – Hosting Nordhoff High School, Cate girls water polo suffered a tight 6-5 loss despite being without seven players due to injury and absence. Ally Satterfield hit two goals and contributed her speed and toughness to help Cate out of an early 4-1 hole. The Rams chipped away at the lead at both ends of the pool, with goals from senior Lydia Stevens, junior Cecelia Sanborn and sophomore Halie Straathof. Satterfield’s huge goal with less than two minutes remaining in the game brought the score back to within one at 6-5. With the ball and a timeout called at 30 seconds left in the game, a drawn-up play saw Satterfield free with the ball in her hands, only for her incredible shot to deflect directly down from the bar and sit on the goal line. The Rangers ran out the clock after that to end the match. “It was an incredible effort by the girls, and a loss that stung,” commented coach Nathan Alldredge.
Boys basketball
Feb. 2 – Hosting Malibu High School, Cate boys basketball was outgunned in the second half of the 81-58 defeat. The Rams trailed by just five, 39-34, at halftime. Nick Thomas finished the contest with 11 points, and Clinton Hall had 21 points. “The Rams really struggled from the field in the final eight minutes,” commented coach Bryan Rodriguez. Senior Kian O’Connor added 10 points to the Rams scoreboard. Senior Nate Wilson was a big and physical presence inside and finished the game with eight points and eight rebounds.
Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California with six rebounds, two steals, two assists and eight points. Miriam Weiss and Delaney Mayfield were strong in the post and were key players for the win. Mayfield pulled down 12 rebounds and scored six points, while Weiss had three rebounds and three points. This is the first time in 13 years that Cate has beat Thacher twice in one season, according to coach Amy Venditta. Feb. 5 – Hosting Foothill Tech, Cate girls basketball collected a 54-33 win. “Coming off a one-point loss to the Dragons a few weeks ago, the Rams were ready for the rematch,” commented coach Amy Venditta. Delaney Mayfield had 14 rebounds and eight points; Miriam Weiss had a double-double of 10 rebounds and 11 points, while Brittany Newsome finished with 10 rebounds and 10 points. Guard Elan Halpern finished with 13 rebounds and 13 points; and Mikaela Li had four rebounds, three assists and eight points.
Carpinteria High School
Girls water polo
Feb. 4 – Warrior girls water polo improved to 7-1 in Tri-Valley League play by defeating Villanova Prep 9-5 in Ojai. “An unorthodox Wildcat defense with two players defending the goal line confounded the Carpinteria offense for the first period, but once the Warriors adapted, the tide of the game quickly turned behind five goals from senior co-captain Sierra Garibay, commented coach Lance Hoffman. Maya Grant, Brenda Rodriguez and Kimmy Methmann carried the remainder of the Carpinteria scoring, while Allie Wagner logged seven steals on defense to assist goalie Nicole Poulos, who had 11 saves in holding the Wildcats to a single goal in the second half. Feb. 6 – Warrior girls water polo had a shot at a share of the Tri-Valley League championship but was outgunned by undefeated Foothill Tech in a 16-4 loss. The Warriors suffered a second-quarter lapse, which staked the Dragons seven goals and made the difference. Juniors Brenda Rodriguez and Kimmy Methmann combined and freshman Lili Castillo accounted for the Warrior goals.
Feb. 4 – In a Frontier League match at Thacher School, Cate boys basketball fell 5038. The teams played neck-and-neck through three quarters, but the Toads prevailed in the fourth. Captain Clinton Hall fought hard to keep Cate in the game by scoring seven of his 11 points in the final quarter. Senior center Nate Wilson contributed seven points and six rebounds, while senior guard, Noah Somaratne gave the Rams some energy off the bench and finished with nine points.
Boys soccer
Feb. 4 - Despite scoring in the first minute of play, the Cate boys soccer team had a hard time shaking Malibu High School in Malibu in a 5-2 victory. Geoffrey Acheampong whipped in a corner kick that Ryan Borchardt headed across the goal into the far corner to open play, but Malibu struck in the 19th minute to tie it at 1-1. The tie officially lasted about 5 seconds—as long as it took for Acheampong to spot the Malibu keeper too far off his line on the ensuing kickoff and nail a 60-yard shot that ducked under the crossbar (Visit www.coastalview.com for footage of the goal). The score remained 2-1 at the break. In the second half, the Rams showed more life defensively in the midfield and their hard work paid off when Acheampong curled a superb corner kick onto the head of a diving Christian Herman. Up 3-1, the Rams didn’t give the Sharks a whole lot of room to maneuver, but Malibu still managed to cut the lead to 3-2 when they were awarded a free kick just outside the Cate box in the 70th minute. But Cate put an emphatic finishing touch on the game when Acheampong scored on a break away in the 74th minute and assisted on Gair Pearson’s goal in the 79th minute.

It is a great group of girls who i am going to miss very much. i go way back to the early AYSO days with many of the girls (around age 6) so it is a sad, yet happy day, to see them play their last regular season home game. They are a special bunch,” commented Charles.

This ‘n’ that LUNAR ECLIPSE: Café Luna, Lillie Avenue’s hot spot for Summerland dining and dialogue, closed its doors this week. The reason is unknown, but readers can expect more on the surprise shuttering from Fran Davis’ “Summerland Shore” column next week. WOW FACTOR: Cate School’s soccer phenom Geoffrey Acheampong earned awe and admiration on Feb. 4 when he booted in a 60-yard goal against Malibu High School. See the jaw-dropping footage at coastalview.com. RAIN DANCE: The storm that gully washed Northern California last weekend dropped just .42 inches on Carpinteria. It quenched thirsty plants, but still left the valley at only 60 percent of its normal rainfall for this time of year.

Summer positions sought for local girls
Girls Inc. of Carpinteria is looking for local businesses to partner with its Eureka! Program by sponsoring an extern to support, mentor and encourage this summer as she navigates the workforce for the first time. Eureka! is a five-year, college-bound program that encourages girls to explore science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) through engaging, hands-on activities. In the third year of the program, Eurekans shift their programming to the workplace. After a week of training, the teens are offered an externship in their field of interest and work approximately 80 hours over four weeks in July. “Eureka is designed to prepare our girls for college while fostering career interests in fields where women have historically been underrepresented and industries positioned for exponential growth, such as STEM,” said Victoria Juarez, executive director of Girls Inc. of Carpinteria. Business professionals interested in sponsoring a Girls Inc. Eureka! extern should contact Kayla Cherland at kayla@girlsinc-carp.org or 684-6364.

After the storm
CArPiNteriA VAlley MuseuM of History
The flood of 1914 washed through Carpinteria Valley and left it rearranged. Homes, like the one above, found themselves boulderfilled and window-deep in mud. The biggest tragedy of the deluge, however, was the death of rural mailman John Rockwell, who was swept away by floodwaters during a valiant attempt to deliver the mail in the storm.

from provence to the pacific PASCALE BEALE
Romancing the taste buds We are coming up to the most romantic (for some) day of the year. Imagine that you want to make the most scrumptious, extravagantly delicious dessert ever … This is the sort of dessert that you will wax lyrical about. It’s wonderfully light, and best of all, it’s not difficult to make. What is all the fuss about you ask? The answer is, pavlova! The original recipe for this dessert came by way of a good friend of mine who was a chef in Australia. He made this with his mum and they used passion fruit in their version. I am an aficionado of berries and right now there are some pretty tasty strawberries at the market, ideal to make this treat. Please don’t rush the baking or cooling down of the Pavlova otherwise the consistency will be dry. Ideally it should be almost marshmallow-like on the inside with a light, thin crisp meringue shell on the outside. This, combined with the whipped cream and the berries, is a true delight. Happy Valentine’s Day to all! Pascale Beale grew up in England and France surrounded by a family that is passionate about food, wine and the arts. In 1999 she opened Montecito Country Kitchen, a Mediterraneanstyle cooking school based in Santa Barbara. Her company continues to expand and has launched a new product line of culinary herbs, spices salts and oils and cookware. Pascale’s new cookbook, “A Menu for all Seasons – Autumn” was released this year by Olive Tree Publishing. More information about the cooking school, products and cookbooks is available at www.pascaleskitchen.com.

Pavlova Ingredients
4 egg whites at room temperature Pinch of salt 8 ounces (just under 1 cup) ultrafine sugar (you can make your own by processing the sugar in a food processor for 1 minute) 2 teaspoons cornstarch 1 teaspoon white-wine vinegar Few drops of good vanilla essence or vanilla paste 3/4 pint of cream 1 Tablespoon sugar 2 pints strawberries, quartered
Process
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until satiny peaks form. Then beat in the sugar, a fourth at a time, until the meringue is stiff and shiny. Sprinkle the cornstarch, vinegar and vanilla over the whipped egg whites and fold in lightly. Draw a 9-inch circle on a piece of parchment paper. Place the parchment paper on a baking sheet. Mound the meringue mixture onto the parchment paper and shape to the size of the circle. Flatten the top and smooth the sides.
Place on the bottom rack of the oven and immediately reduce heat to 250 degrees and cook for 1 ¼ hours. Turn off the oven and let it cool with the door closed. Whip the cream with the sugar until it holds soft peaks. Top the meringue gently with the whipped cream. Then place the cut strawberries on top of the cream. Cut the pavlova as you would a cake. Recipe serves eight people.

CMS crowns spelling bee champs
Carpinteria middle school held its annual spelling bee on Feb. 5. the masons have hosted the event since 1986, according lodge secretary, myron shann, making this year the 30th. Winners from the bee were first place Naomi Buchmiller, seventh grade, and second place Carlo Jacobson, eighth grade, who will represent Cms at the santa barbara County spelling Championship on Feb. 26. Caesar and Vincent Rinaldi (twin brothers) will represent sixth-graders in the K-6 elementary division at the same event. Adam Lent finished third in the seventh- and eight-grade division.
Carpinteria Family school teacher Jan silk brought the class to the theater on Feb. 2 for an underwater experience. students in the second- and third-grade attended the screening of Jean-michel Cousteau’s “secret ocean 3d” at the santa barbara international Film Festival, where they plunged into the stunning environmental documentary. the students had a chance to see on big screen many of the ocean ecosystem concepts they have learned about through their relationship with Cousteau’s nonprofit Ocean Futures Society. “Not everyone can have the privilege of exploring the magical world of coral reefs and kelp forests, but with films like this, I get to invite all audience members to dive in with me and my dive partner, holly Lohuis (Carpinteria Family school parent), to discover the beauty and fragility of the undersea world. For me to be able to sit in the audience with 28 students from CFs, my batteries are now recharged to work even harder to carry on the important message, ‘people protect what they love,’” Cousteau said following the screening of his new film.

Cate students earn prestigious art awards
Five Cate school students have been recognized for their artistic talent in the 2015 scholastic Art Awards, one of the oldest art competitions in the united states. organized by the nonprofit the Alliance for Young Artists and Writers, the awards honor the nation’s most promising young artists in grades seven through 12. eva herman, Kiana beckmen, emily Zhang, sophia Winnikoff and Rainbow Wang collectively won 16 awards. herman received an honorable mention in drawing and illustration; beckmen two honorable mentions in mixed media; Zhang an honorable mention in drawing and illustration, as well as a silver key in mixed media; and Winnikoff an honorable mention and a silver key in photography. Wang received three honorable mentions, three silver keys and three gold keys, one of which was awarded for her senior portfolio as a whole. The competition is judged by leaders in the fields of literary and visual arts, and it has been credited with identifying early promise. Alumni include Andy Warhol, steven King, sylvia plath, truman Capote, Joyce Carol oates, Robert Redford and Ken burns. this year, there were about 300,000 entries in the competition’s 28 categories. “scholastic awards are about more than just technical skill,” says Cate visual art instructor Aspen Golann. “they’re about originality, personal voice, and an ability to communicate. Cate students brought in an unprecedented number of them—we’re so lucky to have this kind of talent on the mesa.”
