Teachers and district lock horns over compensation By LEA BOyD
Failing to reach an agreement at the bargaining table, the teachers union and the school district have entered impasse for the first time in about 20 years. Now a mediator will be hired, a fact-finding process will be launched, and an arbitrator will recommend a route forward for the Carpinteria Unified School District Board of Education. “We’ve been dancing around this for a number of years,” said School Board
President Andy Sheaffer, who pointed out that the teachers had enjoyed decent salary increases for the last two years while also maintaining full district coverage of their health care. Sheaffer said that with rising health care and retirement costs, the board is “uncomfortable” with spending more money on salaries than the district’s budget can support in multiyear projections. Teachers union President Jay Hotchner, however, said that the school board has made claims of “deficit spending” and
used threats of looming district insolvency as its rationale for avoiding fair teacher pay increases for years. In reality, he said, CUSD has a financial reserve that far exceeds state requirements and typically ends each fiscal year with hundreds of thousands more than conservatively projected. This year, the district’s final offer for staff was a 1 percent salary increase and a 2 percent payout. Property taxes, which drive the district’s revenues, are expected to be about

Efforts were made last fall to assess the state of the Becker well and map out the remediation process.
$900,000 for Summerland Beach passes committee
In the latest progress report for the state’s role in cleaning up Summerland Beach, State Assemblyman Das Williams’ office reported a budget subcommittee has approved spending $900,000 over the next two years for oil remediation at Summerland Beach. The funding still faces several legislative hurdles, including approval by the full legislature and governor, in the next few months before it can be adopted in this year’s budget. Summerland Beach has often been fouled by the persistent presence of oil from the Becker Onshore well, which is one of many wells in the region that were improperly abandoned by former owners nearly a century ago. The beach was closed for two days because of the presence of oil in early September, and there have been about 30 incidents of oiling at Summerland Beach reported in the last two years. The funding was also supported by State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson.
Carpinteria auto thefts prompt sheriff’s warnings
Yes, Carpinteria is a pretty safe place, but that doesn’t mean residents should feel insulated enough to leave their car doors unlocked. That’s the message coming from the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office following a rash of recent thefts from automobiles in the City of Carpinteria and surrounding areas. “Thieves are targeting unlocked vehicles and residences in the middle of the night in residential areas,” according to a press release. On April 27, there were more than 10 thefts from automobiles in the Venice Lane/ Via Marcina area north of Via Real in the unincorporated area of Carpinteria. Within the three nights prior, there were six more thefts from autos in the Cameo Road / Canalino Drive area. Summerland and Montecito areas have also been subject to numerous thefts investigated by both the sheriff’s department and California Highway Patrol. In addition to locking up, the sheriff’s department recommends concealing or removing valuables, spare keys and garage remotes from vehicles.
K9 cop puts nose to rest
After more than seven years of fighting crime and helping to save lives in Santa Barbara County, Sheriff’s K-9 Gango has retired from service. During his impressive career, Gango tracked down a number of dangerous criminals including drug trafficking suspects, a carjacking suspect, as well as robbery and burglary suspects. Gango has also assisted in locating lost children and people suffering from Alzheimer’s and dementia. On April 24, Sheriff Bill Brown presented Gango with a retirement certificate and a rawhide bone in appreciation of his years of service. Gango, whose full name is Gango Vom Salztalblick, was born in Hesse, Germany in 2007. In 2009, he joined the ranks of the Sheriff’s Office and was partnered with Senior Deputy Patrick Hayes. The two trained SUBMITTED PHOTO together, worked together and have lived K-9 Gango has retired from the together ever since. “As the saying goes, Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s ‘Dogs are a man’s best friend,’ but Gango Office. has far exceeded that. He has always had my back and because of the tight bond that we share, in a split second, without any reservation he would give his life to protect mine. Gango truly has loved his career in law enforcement as much as I am enjoying mine,” Hayes said. A highlight of Gango’s career was when he helped locate a deaf teenager who had not come home from a bike ride in her neighborhood.
$44 million available for innovative farmers
The United States Department of Agriculture recently announced that $44 million in grant funding is available to farmers, ranchers and food entrepreneurs to develop new product lines. Funding will be made available through the Value-Added Producer Grant (VAPG) program. The deadline to apply electronically is June 24; for paper submitted applications, the deadline is July 1. Up to $75,000 is available for planning grants and up to $250,000 is available for implementation grants, with project periods lasting from one to three years depending on the complexity of the project. According to Traci Bruckner, Assistant Director of Policy at the Center for Rural Affairs, “These grants assist farmers and ranchers in starting or expanding ventures that increase the value of raw farm and ranch products and market unique and high-quality food products, including local, natural and organic foods.”
School district gets First 5 grant
Carpinteria Unified School District recently received funding through First 5 Santa Barbara County to support the Thrive initiative linking the community and school system. Called a Capacity Building Grant, the funding boon will be directed toward supporting the Thrive Carpinteria Partner Network and launching a friend program to further network the Cradle-to-Career educational initiative into the community. The mini-grants totaled $36,162 between eight area recipients and are meant to be short-term improvement efforts that can be achieved within a year. “Investing in the organizational capacity and strength of local nonprofits and community agencies is a key strategy for helping all children get ready for kindergarten,” said Ben Romo, Executive Director of First 5 Santa Barbara County. “Building their capacity with these smaller grants helps them do their work better and ensures that our tax and philanthropic investments are used most efficiently.”

Teachers and district lock horns over compensation Continued from page 1 5 percent higher this year. teachers in many surrounding districts have negotiated for significantly higher increases than 1 percent, though Sheaffer said that CUSd’s property tax-dependent funding disqualifies it for grant monies that are benefiting nearby districts serving similarly socioeconomically challenged populations. last year, the board and union arrived at a last minute agreement to raise salaries by 4 percent salary while downgrading employees’ high-end health plans. the two years prior, teachers received 2 and 3.25 percent increases, but between 2008 and 2011, staff weathered three years without any pay bumps. Superintendent Micheline Miglis said, “While we disagree over the number, we

are continuing to work with reciprocal respect and appreciation for one another. the move to impasse is an opportunity to bring in mediators to assist us at arriving at a fair salary increase while we ensure fiscal responsibility, rather than seek to mediate a broken relationship. i continue to be inspired by the faculty and staff’s daily commitment and service to our children and community.” Hotchner said teachers are likely to stop putting in the volunteer hours they typically dedicate to activities like extracurricular clubs, afterhours phone calls with parents and letters of recommendation. the district, he said, is failing to recognize its most important asset, teachers. He hopes that parents will recognize the value in their children’s educators and let the school board know that its teachers deserve more.

Carpinteria Children’s Project will undergo a major transition as of January 2017, but there’s a good chance most people won’t even notice. the organization, which is housed on the former Main School campus and provides a vast array of early childhood and family services, will become a nonprofit corporation after operating through the Carpinteria Unified School district since its 2009 inception. “early childhood education will continue without interruption, as will afterschool and summer programs and classes and support for parents offered through CCP’s family Resource Center,” stated a press release announcing the shift. Maria fisk, the CCP’s director since 2013, will become the nonprofit’s executive director. CCP’s funding comes from major investors, grants, contracts and early childhood education tuition. As a nonprofit, CCP will be able to receive donations and apply for grants directly, a benefit to fundraising. the new arrangement will also provide CCP more control over expenses. Rising medical insurance costs and state mandated employer contributions to employee pension funds have driven
up costs for the organization to operate through the school district. “We have a strong commitment to competitive employee compensation and are better able to meet that commitment in the open marketplace,” said CCP Boardmember Michael Cooney. CCP staff, a handful in 2009 and now 26 employees, are technically employees of the school district although their salaries and benefits are not paid by the school district. the CCP board has applied for nonprofit status with the Internal Revenue Service. Currently, the board is made up of Jon Clark, President of the J.S. Bower Foundation; Dave Durflinger, City Manager of Carpinteria; and Michael Cooney, esq., trustee of la Centra Sumerlin and Outhwaite foundations. “the district is very proud of enabling CCP to grow and flourish and is excited to support CCP through this transition and beyond. the business side is changing; the innovative partnership between CCP and CUSd will remain strong and will continue to reap invaluable benefits for the children and families of Carpinteria. the deliverables from CCP have been unparalleled and we are confident this will remain the constant,” said CUSd Superintendent Micheline g. Miglis.

Mark Constable of Brawley, Calif. died peacefully on Friday, April 29 in Santa Barbara, Calif. Mark was 61 years old. In the end he died of heart failure after valiantly dancing with an aggressive form of prostate cancer for five years. He put up a fight, not letting the odds keep him from being with his girls for as long as possible. Mark was a lifelong farmer and nurseryman, embodying a deep connection to growing and to the land. He also loved the ocean: swimming, surfing and deep sea fishing. A husband, brother, father and friend, Mark was described as “a wonderful person with the most infectious laugh.” He was a one-of-a-kind blend of down to earth and practical, mischievous and fun-loving, yet modestly deep-thinking and spiritual. A rare person who could inspire those around him to laugh, even at themselves. A nearby resident confessed that he taught her how to be a neighbor. He was deeply grateful for his friends, family, and community, posting on social media, “Don’t usually write anything on Facebook, but just wanted to tell all you people how blessed I am to have all of you in my life.” The eldest son of Chuck and Judy Constable, Mark was preceded in death by his parents and his brother Paul. Mark is survived by his wife of 19 years, Laurie; his daughters, Alexis and Anna; his brother and sister-in-law, Kent and Karen Constable; his stepmother Mary Joy Barnett; stepsiblings Hunt Barnett (Debbie), Eric Barnett (Heidi) and Bettina Helsing (Craig); nieces and nephews Tyler Constable, Lisa Lofton, Page Barnett, Charlotte Barnett, Claire Barnett, Jason Barnett, Sean Barnett, Emma Helsing and Grace Helsing. All who knew and loved him are invited to join us for a memorial service on Friday, May 6 at 2 p.m. at Congregation B’nai B’rith, 1000 San Antonio Creek Road, Santa Barbara, followed by a gathering of casual taco fare and a paddle out at Leadbetter Beach.

Are you ready for a shocking story with a happy ending? In the year 1988, Santa Barbara County euthanized more than 4,000 cats, including healthy, sociable ones. The county shelter held only 50 cats, and their maximum stay before euthanasia was two weeks. The adoption rate was a mere 10 percent. And now for the happy ending. In 1989, the Animal Shelter Assistance Program was formed. In 1990, ASAP became the first municipal shelter in the U.S. to stop killing adoptable cats solely to control population. Today, cats can stay in the Santa Barbara shelter as long as necessary, and 100 percent of adoptable ones find homes. The shelter’s furry residents—numbering about 1,000 each year—also receive loving care, medical assistance and spay and neuter services. Hundreds of volunteers, including Carpinteria residents, have worked hard to make this remarkable change possible. Some take kittens home to provide care and comfort on a temporary, or foster, basis. Other people lend a hand at the shelter, performing a wide variety of tasks. Carpinterian Stephanie Zandona works about four hours a week as a shelter volunteer. Here’s a look at what she does—and why.
Q: What’s the best part of volunteering for ASAP? A: I know I’m helping the homeless and abandoned cats and kittens in Santa Barbara County get a second chance in life. I’m also making friends with good, honorable people who are here for the same reason. Q: What do you do at the shelter? A: My duties range from greeting and assisting the public to cleaning cages, litter pans and food and water bowls. Other things include feeding, grooming, petting and socializing the cats—plus, doing laundry, washing windows, sweeping, etc. Q: What’s been the most emotional moment in the two years you’ve volunteered? A: The most heartwarming moment was when Tipsy was adopted. She was an older cat with a head injury that left her permanently disabled. She was deaf and couldn’t walk in a straight line. Also, her head wobbled, so when she ate, she made a huge mess. But she was the sweetest cat and a favorite with all the volunteers. She’s featured with her forever family in the shelter’s Spring 2016 “Cat Nips” newsletter. Reading it brought tears to my eyes! Q: What skills are important for this job? A: Avoiding burnout and being able to manage your emotions in the case of injured or abused animals. Q: Do you have anything else to mention about the program? A. It’s a great place to volunteer, and we’re very lucky to have it here. I’m learning a lot about cat behavior and how important it is to microchip and spay or neuter your cat.

The nonprofit Animal Shelter Assistance Program warmly welcomes shelter volunteers and foster volunteers throughout the year, but right now there’s a special need for foster homes. Most kittens in Santa Barbara County are born during “kitten season,” which runs from early spring through late fall. Foster volunteers give young kittens the opportunity to experience their critical formative weeks in a home environment rather than in a shelter. Fostering offers humans three benefits in return: Children can learn how to handle young animals; families can decide whether they’re ready to take on the commitment of adopting a pet; and everyone gets to enjoy kitten love. “We also have an active hospice foster program for cats that are not considered adoptable but still have a good quality of life,” said Rhonda Douglass, ASAP’s volunteer program director. “It’s an incredible act of love for a foster to care for an aging cat so he or she doesn’t spend the rest of life in a cage.” To learn more about becoming a shelter or foster volunteer, visit asapcats.org, email info@asapcats.org or call 448-5305. The ASAP shelter is located at 5473 Overpass Road in Santa Barbara. Barbara Dunlap is a journalist and the founder of GrandNannies, a babysitting service in Carpinteria.

Jared Dawson brings a deep connection to the arts to his new gallery at 4646 Carpinteria Ave.
Fine art gallery opens at Lavender Court
The latest splashy addition to Carpinteria’s palette of art galleries is Jared Dawson Gallery, where fine art from solo shows to prints and rare collections will be on display. The gallery, located at 4646 Carpinteria Ave., is named for its owner, an artist, curator and involved patron of the arts in the Santa Barbara area since 1968. Dawson described his lineup of artists for the next year as eclectic. It includes everything from pairings of etchings and poetry by William T. Wiley and Michael Hannon, to Nell Campbell photography of Cuba, among an array of renowned fine artists. All of the varying contemporary artists in the lineup are summed up as “Sight-Pacific” due to the unvarying inspiration of the Pacific coast. “All of the art is influenced by being on the coast and by the light of the coast,” Dawson said. Dawson’s next show, Prints & Repros, opens on First Friday, May 6, at 5 p.m. with a reception. Everyone attending the show can have a unique art card to take home.

Bonds between daughter Whitney Brooks Abbott and mother Meredith Brooks Abbott are written on canvas and kinship. The two renowned impressionist artists find strength and support in one another while traveling similar paths divided by a generation. Both women grew up on Carpinteria ranches, and both became professional artists who earn livings in the competitive market of paint on canvas. Meredith’s talents were harnessed as a child in a family of five siblings, four of which are still active in the arts. “Painting and drawing was entertainment for us as children,” she explained. “Living on a ranch, we were somewhat isolated.” Meredith studied under artists Douglass Parshall, Richard S. Meryman and noted California Impressionist Clarence Hinkle and graduated from Art Center School in Los Angeles with a degree in Illustration. Now known as one of the premier impressionist painters in California, her work is shown at Sullivan Goss Gallery, her gallery in residence. Focusing on art and family, Meredith admits, can be a challenge. “Once you are hooked, you have to somehow make time for painting,” she said. “It’s always a juggling act and keeping the balance is hard…(but) my greatest works of art are my three children.” Meredith creates 50 to 100 paintings per year, working every day to keep her creative muscles sharp. Daughter Whitney gains influence through the way her mother stabilized family and a creative life. “Mom has an amazing work ethic,” Whitney explained. “She managed to have a thriving art career while raising

Just married Macias – Ruiz
Amanda Macias and Mark Ruiz were married on April 30 at St. Joseph Catholic Church with a reception that followed at the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club. The Carpinteria couple met on a cruise and is planning a Caribbean cruise as a honeymoon. Macias is the daughter of John and Diane Macias. She is a 2008 graduate of Carpinteria High School and works as a medical assistant at Ventura Hospital. Ruiz is the son of Doug and Josie Ruiz. He is a graduate of Santa Barbara High School and manages Montecito True Value Hardware. The couple resides in Carpinteria.
similar way of life. She was born in the Bay Area but grew up in Carpinteria. With the artistic backgrounds of her mother, three aunts and father’s mother, she was encouraged to express herself “visually and creatively” as a child. She majored in art at u.C. Santa Cruz and received a fellowship to study at the yale School of Art and Music. Her accomplishments include numerous fellowships, awards, exhibitions, and features in several art publications over a span of 24 years. Easton Gallery in Santa Barbara currently represents Whitney and will be hosting a show of her work this fall. For work/life balance, she gets by with a little help from family, friends and taking advantage of the moments as they come. “Every time my littlest one takes a nap, I have my easel and an idea ready to go,” Whitney said. “But sometimes, all I have a chance to do is paint the coffee cup sitting on the table, and that’s totally OK. It’s also a learning experience for that day.” Whitney credits her mom, husband
Murray and her babysitter Kristen for allowing her to catch some precious time to create. Both women are also members of the Oak Group, an exclusive collection of artists who aim to capture the beauty of endangered landscapes as a means of preservation while encouraging public awareness. Meredith shares that she beams with pride when she walks the bluffs, knowing she’s part of an organization that helped keep the space from development. When asked about their similarities, each woman applauds the other. “We are both representational painters who feed off of the life we find around us and the symbolism in the things we view every day,” Whitney said. “I think we both strive for honesty in our own work. We both want to be direct,” Meredith reflected. “Whitney’s work is much freer than mine, and I admire it immensely.”
Studio tour opens doors to art
The studios of both Meredith and Whitney Brooks Abbott will be open to the public this weekend as part of the annual Artist Studio Tour. The self-guided tour features 31 studios and galleries throughout Carpinteria where visitors can enjoy art and learn more about the process of making it from its maker. The free tour will take place on Saturday and Sunday, May 7 and 8, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. A meet-andgreet reception with participating artists will be held on Friday, May 6, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Carpinteria Arts Center, 855 Linden Ave. A map of the open studios can be downloaded from carpinteriaartscenter. org or picked up at the Arts Center.

Tavira bros hear the call of the future
BY ALONZO OROZCO
Juan and Guillermo Tavira-Rios, both student-athletes at Carpinteria High School, blend in on the field and while navigating between classes on campus. What sets the brothers apart is the obstacles they have overcome in order to achieve. Juan, a sophomore, is hearing impaired, while Guillermo, a senior, is deaf. Both siblings play football and run track for the Warriors. Guillermo, who also notched two years of basketball, started playing sports when he was a freshman. “It was my first time ever playing sports, and I really enjoyed it, so I have continued to play up to my senior year,” said the older brother through American Sign Language (ASL) Interpreter Christina Montero. Playing team sports with hearing impairments comes with its share of issues, particularly in football, where both brothers have had to spend a great deal of time on the defensive side of the ball because of being unable to hear the offensive plays. Even though Guillermo has had interpreters on the sidelines for the past couple of years, his inability to hear has helped bring the team together, as many of the players and coaches have learned some signing in order to communicate. In track, younger brother Juan has run the 800 and 1600 meters, while Guillermo has participated in the 300 hurdles and 4x100 relays.
BILL SWING PHOTOS
Guillermo Tavira-Rios competes on the track and field team and clears more than a conventional hurdle in the process. Guillermo has had the benefit of having an interpreter present since kindergarten, but Juan was without one until
fifth grade. Juan is able to speak quite clearly. However, his ability to communicate orally hasn’t always been wellreceived. “The people that I entrusted in were making fun of my voice,” said Juan. Montero confirms Juan’s tone of speech is often labeled as a “deaf accent.” Juan plans to follow in his older brother’s footsteps by participating in high school sports for all four years and looks forward to donning the number four his brother wore as Carpinteria’s first deaf football player. Although not much taller than 5’ 4”, Guillermo has earned the reputation as being a fierce competitor. Recently the senior was offered a football and track scholarship from deaf university Gallaudet in Washington, D.C. “My parents are here, I kind of want to stay here in the community,” explained Guillermo, who declined the offer. Aside from the excitement of playing at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium,
education seems to be the brothers’ main focus. Each plans to attend SBCC for two years, then move on to a four-year university. “I don’t want to do any sports. I want to focus on English,” said Juan. “I want to be an English teacher for a deaf school,” he added. Meanwhile, Guillermo’s ambition is to become a chef, and he would also like to someday coach deaf and hard of hearing students. According to Montero, SBCC has several sign language instructors available for its students. “There’s actually one deaf person (at SBCC) I know. He’s the first deaf person (at the school) to go into cosmetology,” said Montero. “It’s nice to see there are (deaf people) breaking down those barriers.” Guillermo seemingly doesn’t see those barriers. “I’m not allowing my deafness to interfere with anything I want to do,” said the senior. “I’m not allowing my deafness to give me limits.”
Carpinteria High School students Guillermo and Juan Tavira-Rias enjoy camaraderie with coaches Weldon Nomura and Angel Silva with the help of sign language translator Christina Montero.
Saving the Tritons
Juan Tavira-Rios legs it across the finish line for Warrior track and field.
In last week's CVN, the Carpinteria Tritons 12 and under water polo team garnered recognition for its Ventura Youth Water Polo League Championship. The goalie, Gavin Lohuis, was overlooked. He was integral to the team's successes and turning back opponents’ shots.

The Warriors overall record is 8-8 with a league record of 6-6. April 28 - The Carpinteria High School boys volleyball team hosted Santa Clara, winning the match over the Saints in the first three sets, 3-0 (25-9, 25-14, 25-8). “Sophomore Eli Mochel performed well as our middle blocker, racking up five blocks and four kills for the night,” said Warrior coach Dino Garcia. Outside hitter Mayerik Rodriguez yielded 13 kills, and setter Armando Soriano added 24 assists. Carpinteria’s overall record moves to 9-8 and 7-6 in league.
Swimming
April 27 – The Carpinteria High School swim team achieved quite a few personal bests and a new CIF time on the Girls 200 Freestyle Relay at the meet held in Malibu. Warriors Bekah Razo, Jessica Cruz, Alisa Lemere and Kelly Griffin cut the 200 Relay time in the race by over two seconds, registering a mark of 1:59.41. On the boys side, Forrest Van Stein dropped three seconds from 2:12.69 to 2:09.00 in the race also. Ann Delgado also trimmed off three seconds in the 200 IM. Griffin and Crystal Landeros both shaved time off the 50 with Griffing knocking off nearly one second off her best, and Landeros trimming down her mark by over a second.
April 29 - The Cate School baseball team lost to Santa Paula on the road 7-3. Rams junior Joel Revo went 2-for-4, and junior Dylan Ell also had two hits. Senior Jake Dexter-Meldrum, freshman Jack Deardorff and sophomore Emily Burns had a hit apiece. Dexter-Meldrum got the start on the mound for Cate and went two innings and gave up four runs. He was relieved by senior James Chang, who also went two innings without giving up a run.

Boys tennis
April 26 - The Carpinteria High School boys tennis team dropped a Tri-Valley League match to league leading Thacher 17-1. The Warriors number-two Jeremy Saito beat the Toads number-one player who felled him a few weeks ago. “Numberthree Jacob Ascencio also played well, he dropped a 7-5 decision in the last round but overall played three solid sets,” said Carpinteria coach Charles Bryant. “We had a few close sets, but Thacher just has too much depth and not many weaknesses,” added Bryant. The Warriors are 4-14 overall and 2-6 in the TVL. April 29 - The Carpinteria High School boys tennis team finished the season by beating Santa Clara in a non-league match 15-3. In singles, number-two Jacob Ascencio swept his three sets and only dropped three games. Number-three Jeremy Saito did a little better as he also swept and only dropped one game. “Although number-one Jacques Jougla did not win a set today, he really showed a lot of heart as he continually battled for every point,” said Warrior coach Charles Bryant. In doubles, number-three Sam Truax/Bryan Taira swept their three sets and did not drop a game.

The Fog Minute
By ALiSon M. BAiLey washing in the deep basin dust from a day in the garden, I join the St. Joseph Carnival late – deliver my neighbor’s lingonberry jam to the judges. in slants of night the monastery on the mountain beckons. i steal a ride on the Ferris wheel. Up, stone walls hint at distant moments where the monk whispers as he settles beneath thin covers. last seconds in candlelight a Black Irish girl from his childhood trembles in the fog minute between prayers and sleep.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California The story unfolds through the lives of three alpha-males. “Billy” Burns, the detective recruited to locate the bombers, executes a masterful and engaging odyssey of unraveling the crime. Renowned attorney Clarence Darrow is recruited to defend not only the apprehended culprits, but by proxy, the American Labor movement at large. All the while, the industry-shaping filmmaker D.W. Griffith expresses his observations in a revolutionary new technology, which ultimately manifests the world’s first feature length film, “The Birth of a Nation.” To the point, “American Lightning” is a page-turning adventure that leaves the reader with a deeper understanding of historic events still evolving in present day. ––Cheryl Banigan, Friends of the Library Used Books Store volunteer, 5103 Carpinteria Ave.

“There’s a (Slight) Chance I Might be Going to Hell” by Laurie Notaro
When Maye Roberts’ husband, Charlie, gets a job at a Washington State University, Maye leaves her tight-knit group of friends and job as a Phoenix reporter to move to the school’s adjoining town. While Charlie fits in easily, Maye is lonely and has a hard time fitting in, especially after a debacle at a faculty dinner, that included exposure of parts better left unexposed, and a run-in with dean’s wife, Rowena, whom Maye supposed to be his mother. Maye tries traditional ways to make friends, which all seem to lead to hilarity, but unwanted sorts of attention. Then she learns about the Sewer Pipe Queen pageant, a local tradition that guarantees the winner a town full of friends. She enters with her singing dog, inflaming Rowena further. As tensions thicken, Maye’s notorious pageant sponsor, Ruby, may hold the key to Rowena’s continuing rage and to the decades-old incident that sparked it. ––Tara O’Reilly, Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.
Friends of the Library recommendation
“Amsterdam” by Ian McEwan
In “Amsterdam,” author Ian McEwan played the hand his readers have come to love—thrilling plot, intriguing characters and supreme skill with the English language—well enough to win the 1998 Booker Prize. In the novel, two friends, a composer and a newspaper editor, make a life-altering pact that spirals into disaster. McEwan gracefully spins the tale, just as he did in subsequent novels “Atonement” and “On Chesil Beach.” The Carpinteria Library Book Club will discuss “Amsterdam” on Wednesday, May 18 at 7:30 p.m. at Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. Anyone interested in reading and discussing the book is invited to attend. To find out more, call Tara at 684-4314.
Amrit Joy’s Hints for Healthy & Happy Living
More gratitude
“American Lightning,” by Howard Blum
After 20-plus years studying Los Angeles history, it’s humbling to read “American Lightning” and accept my shallow understanding of an event so pivotal to regional and American labor and capital interests. The 1910 bombing of the Los Angeles Times building, a largely forgotten act of domestic terrorism, ended not only 21 innocent lives but marked a turning point in the preservation of fundamental societal values which control the balance of our nation. The big question is, “Where’s the screenplay?” Sex, money, power, this book has got it all.
Give thanks for all the daily gifts, large and small. Take the time to acknowledge all the beauty and wonders of our universe. Be grateful for the simple things. The more you experience being grateful, the more your gratitude expands. Amrit Joy is a certified Hatha and Kundalini Yoga instructor. She has been practicing and teaching yoga since 1976. Amrit offers ongoing group yoga classes open to all levels here in Carpinteria. Private instruction in yoga and meditation is also available by appointment.

Stop feeling like an imposter cVn
the write practice joe bunting Do you ever feel like a writing imposter? Like you’re just faking this writing thing, waiting for everyone to figure out you have no idea what you’re doing? I challenged an author friend to write a poem a few days ago. She took me up on my challenge, wrote a poem, and it turned out beautifully. But she said something interesting afterward, something I recognize in my own thoughts about my writing, something almost every writer I know deals with. “I feel like an imposter.” Sound familiar? Because I think most of us feel like that at some point in our writing. I certainly do, sometimes daily. What do you do when you’re passionate about writing, when it fills your soul, and yet you feel like you’re just faking it? What do you do when you feel like you’ll never live up to the writers you admire and respect?
Why you shouldn’t feel like a writing imposter
Writers, I’ve found, are very sensitive to shame. Shame is, at its core, the belief that you don’t belong, that there’s something essentially wrong with you, and that you’ll never be able to be part of the group because of that essential flaw. Shame is the fear of being exposed and that if you are exposed, you will be rejected. But what is writing except exposing the deepest parts of yourself? Since writing is such a vulnerable activity, writers come up against shame constantly. There’s no avoiding it. The “imposter” thoughts constantly follow: I’m a sham I can’t write poetry I’ll never write something great like my favorite writers I’m not a real writer I’m just faking it My writing is worthless And so on.
Three steps to dealing with imposter writer syndrome
The inescapable reality is that if you want to be a writer, you will feel shame. Everyone feels shame, but writer’s are particularly susceptible to it. It’s just part of the job. And the worst part is there’s no quick fix to shame. But here are three tips to dealing with that feeling of being an “imposter” writer: 1. Identify it First, just recognize your feelings. When you get that feeling like you got punched in the gut or someone poured a bucket of ice water over your head, make the connection, “Oh, I’m feeling shame right now.” 2. Endure it Next, endure it. Even though you may feel like you would do anything to not feel like this, the hard truth is that you can’t distract yourself out of shame. And if you try to distract yourself as a way to avoid feelings of shame, you can potentially do long-term damage to your creativity (creativity and vulnerability are closely linked). Instead, feel your feelings. Breathe them in. Breathe them out. Let them exist, even as they rip you up inside. 3. Replace it Shame is the belief that who you are is not good enough. O b v i o u s l y, t h a t ’ s a l i e , b e cause you are awesome. You can be a great writer. You aren’t a sham, an imposter, or just faking it. You are an artist. You are beautifully and wonderfully creative. And, most of all, writing is supposed to be fun! Stop taking it (and yourself!) so seriously. Don’t give in to the lie, replace it with truth.
You aren’t an imposter
We all feel like imposters. Even the great writers do. F. Scott Fitzgerald felt like an imposter. J.K. Rowling felt like an imposter. Earnest Hemingway felt like an imposter. George R.R. Martin felt like an imposter. We all feel like we’re faking this writing thing so much of the time. You can’t avoid it. But you can live with it. You can overcome it. You can write anyway. Have you ever felt like an imposter as a writer?
PracticE
Stop taking writing so seriously. Today, write something silly. Write the silliest thing you’ve ever written. It doesn’t have to make sense. It doesn’t even need to have punctuation. It just needs to be fun, a lot of fun. Write something silly for 15 minutes. When your time is up, share your practice with a writing friend. You can also share on our website at, thewritepractice.com/ stop-feeling-like-imposter. Have fun and happy writing!

On the rOad Unicorn sightings with CVN
Mary Paterson (Fisher) completed the 120th Boston Marathon and received the legendary Unicorn medal for finishing the historic event, which was also the 50th anniversary of the first woman finisher at the marathon. The unicorn has been the emblem of marathon host Boston Athletic Association since its inception in 1887. Following the feat, Paterson, a CHS graduate and mother of two, proudly displayed CVN. According to Mary, “The race was awesome, not my best time and not my worst, but the best ever being surrounded by ‘unicorns’ (finishers) from around the world in friendly Boston.”
