Santa Barbara,” Cash told the Board of Education at a special session today. The board selected Cash for the district’s $209,000 per year top spot from a
field of 58 candidates. He served as superintendent at Clovis Unified School District for two years. Cash, a 55-year-old Long Beachnative, first came to Santa Barbara to study at UCSB. Cash is no stranger to the Santa Barbara School District; he was the principal of Goleta Valley Junior High from 1992-95, and prin-
cipal of Dos Pueblos High School from 1999-2004. He was also a teacher at Peabody Charter School. Board president Annette Cordero said Cash was the right pick. “We had a lengthy and very competitive process to bring Santa See SCHOOLS, page 5

Cpl. Robert Prescott got the call that there was a fire on the second story of a house in Santa Maria. He and other law enforcement officers raced to the scene. They were told children were inside the house, but after a search, they couldn’t find anyone. Then a woman in front of the house told officers that there were two children inside. Officers rushed inside and Prescott found a frightened boy in a downstairs bathroom. He carried the frightened 5-year-old boy out, and to safety. For his heroic deed, Prescott won the H. Thomas Guerry Valor Award, in a ceremony on Wednesday at the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors Room. “I’m very honored,” Prescott told the Daily Sound. “But I think any other officer would have done the same, I just happened to be the one who found him.” The county every year honors outstanding law enforcement officers. The recipients yesterday ranged from police officers to district attorneys in the Santa Barbara County area. “We’re very pleased to give these awards every year to the men and women that serve us daily out in the field,” said Bob Hart, president of the Santa Barbara Citizens Council On Crime.

Ariz. fire burns 600 sq. miles
SHOW LOW, Arizona (Reuters) – A monster wildfire believed started by careless campers roared unchecked through eastern Arizona for an 11th day on Wednesday, leaving 600 square miles blackened and forcing thousands of edgy residents holed up in two towns to flee. The blaze, ranked as Arizona’s second-largest forest fire on record, prompted the complete evacuation of the two mountain communities near the New Mexico border. Springerville and Eager, home to some 8,000 people combined, were evacuated late in the day. As many as 2,000 people, most of them in Eager, had been chased from the area over the past two days, but officials had allowed most residents to stay put while keeping them on standby for possible further evacuations. As many as 11,000 residents in all have been displaced in the White Mountains region, a popular vacation destination for Arizonans seeking to escape the summer heat, since the fire erupted on May 29.
Haiti storms, slides claim 23
PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) – The death toll from days of heavy rains that triggered flooding and mudslides in Haiti has climbed to 23, an official said on Wednesday. The deaths and damage caused by the first major rainfall of the Atlantic hurricane season have raised concerns about the ability of Haiti, the Western Hemisphere’s poorest country, to respond to a major storm as it works to stem an eight-month-old cholera outbreak that has killed about 5,400 people. Emergency crews cleared rocks, trees and downed power lines from roads in the Haitian capital Wednesday and aid groups fanned out to further assess the damage. The rains turned dirt roads in Port-au-Prince into muddy streams, flattened ramshackle homes and flooded tent encampments where hundreds of thousands of homeless survivors of Haiti’s devastating 2010 earthquake still live.
Boston ties Stanley Cup series
BOSTON (Reuters) – The inspired Boston Bruins continued to punish the Vancouver Canucks for a vicious hit that ended Nathan Horton’s season, rolling to a 4-0 win on Wednesday to level the Stanley Cup final series at two games each. The Bruins, who lost each of the first two games by one goal, have dominated on their home ice and posted two lopsided victories after the series momentum took a gigantic shift early in Game Three Monday following Aaron Rome’s late hit on Horton that left him unconscious and twitching on the ice. The best-of-seven series now heads back to the Canadian west coast for Game Five Friday.
When Randy Rowse was appointed to replace Das Williams, some people made hay over the new conservative majority taking over the Santa Barbara City Council. Frankly, it’s refreshing to see more political balance on the council than in the recent past. The conservatives have forced a more robust public discussion about homelessness, affordable housing and gangs. But the conservative majority’s recent support of a proposal to allow a quorum of elected officials to meet in private is shocking and shameful. Leading the charge is Santa Barbara City Councilman Dale Francisco. Francisco, elected in 2007, said the restriction in the Brown Act that prevents a quorum of city council members from meeting in private to discuss public policy is restrictive and bad for good government. How can he make such an outrageous statement with a straight face? The issue arose Tuesday as part of the city’s annual review of its legislative platform – essentially a document that provides a general outline of the council’s collective views of potential legislative matters on the horizon. Thanks to the council’s 4-3 vote, the city of Santa Barbara is now on record as opposing the Brown Act requirement that a quorum of elected officials always meet in public when
discussing city matters. The Daily Sound calls on members of the council who voted for this, Francisco, Rowse, Frank Hotchkiss, Michael Self to rethink whether this is the right direction for the city. The Ralph M. Brown Act is California’s open meetings law, which requires elected officials to conduct their business in public with full transparency. The law is also designed to allow the public full participation through timely noticing of agendas and other documents. No matter how he attempts to justify it, Francisco’s divergence from state law flies in the face of good government. Francisco tried to explain his position at Tuesday’s meeting. “The reality of the Brown Act is that most people in the public have no idea how much it limits and constricts the ability of the people who they have elected to represent them, to actually discuss the issues. At a certain point we have to recognize that there is no law, no constitution that will by itself – through its operation – create good government, create government that is free of corruption. That is not going to happen. It requires the vigilant attention of the citizens.” Francisco said it’s up to the public
to pay attention. “The citizens need to watch what’s happening on City Council,” Francisco said. “That is how they will know if something is wrong.” It’s remarkable that Francisco, who ran for City Council on a platform of being a neighborhood advocate, would now suggest that it’s OK for elected officials to meet behind closed doors and then leave it up to the citizens to sort it out on Tuesday afternoons. And although Francisco at one point said he wasn’t pushing for elected officials to come to a decision behind closed doors, his words later in the meeting belied that perspective. “What I am arguing is that it is absolutely essential that the people that you elect to represent you have the freedom to discuss among themselves the issues of importance that come before the city,” Francisco said. “Anything that we decide always has to come before the public for a final determination. Everyone up here has to explain, or should explain, why they came to these conclusions and why they voted the way they did. It is the responsibility of the citizens to listen to those explanations and decide whether they make sense or not.” Scary. In a city with a rich history of proactive civic participation, this kind of logic seems out of step with the mainstream.

LimĂłn said. Board member Ed Heron found Cash’s doctoral dissertation impressive. Heron said it advocated holding principals and teachers accountable, but letting them work with as little SARVIS micromanagement as possible. Heron said it’s a good window into Cash’s working philosophy and something that Heron himself identifies with. “He’s a big believer in giving people the job and letting them accomplish it with accountability,â€? Heron said. “And that accountability aspect is missing in society.â€? Cash said his first few months will be spent listening to the community and learning about their concerns. His basic goal is to make sure that every student matters in the classroom and uses the mantra, “every child, every chance, every day,â€? to ensure that any underperforming students aren’t overlooked. “No student should be anonymous in who they are and they should never be anonymous in what they need in order to

Cash is looking forward to renewing some of his old relationships in the community, but acknowledges that there will be challenges ahead, such as grappling with the district budget. “We have to realize that with the state budget, fiscal crisis for education is a given and we need to work from there,� Cash said. Board Vice President Susan Deacon knew Cash when he was principal at Dos Pueblos and her children were students
there. Deacon said Cash had been very open and accessible to students and parents, one of the qualities that put him on her “wish list� for superintendent. That quality also made him well liked in the educational community, something that Deacon believes will make for a smooth transition as Sarvis bows out. “It’s hard to hit the ground running in a district where you don’t know anybody,� Deacon said. “But this way you’ve got a leg up.�

and said, “You can’t dress your baby in purple – you’ll turn him gay!” I think most of us, this woman included, mistakenly assume that the “rules” governing baby clothes colors, such as blue for boys and pink for girls, have existed for centuries, perhaps dating back to Ancient Greece, when a baby’s gender was signified by either a miniature pink or blue toga.

I don’t have any numbers to back me up, but my guess is that not all of these children were “turned gay” as a result. The larger point is that, like all fashions, cultural associations between clothing and gender are subject to change, so we really shouldn’t put too much stock in them. In Colonial times, there were no manlier men than our Founding Fathers, but if you were to happen upon a session of the Continental Congress today, with everyone outfitted in tights and powdered wigs, you’d probably assume that you’d walked into a taping of

Much as he enjoys wearing his pink striped pants, he also likes to accessorize with a bandanna, eyepatch and plastic sword, then chase me around the house calling me a “scurvy dog” and threatening to cut off my head. No doubt, had he lived during that era, all who sailed the Seven Seas would have trembled at the mere mention of “Pinkbeard the Pirate.” But most of all, I’m proud of him for remaining firm in his love of pink.

Before taking certain very important actions, the personal however, representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

The time for filling claims will not expire before four months from the hearing date noticed above.

Dylan lyrics to be auctioned
NEW YORK (Reuters) – A selection of previously unpublished draft lyrics by legendary songwriter Bob Dylan is hitting the auction block this month, Christie’s said Wednesday. The heavily annotated, sometimes in crayon, lyrics date from the mid-1960s, during one of Dylan’s most productive periods. They will be sold at Christie’s auction of fine printed books and manuscripts in New York on June 23. “The mid-60s, especially 1964-1966, were a true watershed for Dylan,” said Chris Coover, Christie’s senior specialist for books. The items for sale include early, formative versions of five songs from 1965’s “Bringing It All Back Home” album, including “I Ain’t
Gonna Work on Maggie’s Farm No More,” a draft for “Maggie’s Farm,” estimated to sell for $70,000 to $90,000. Some of the revised and corrected lyrics are handwritten and others are typed. Christie’s said the newly discovered drafts once belonged to Dylan’s manager, Albert Grossman. They feature some of Dylan’s bestknown songs, including “Subterranean Homesick Blues,” “Queen Jane Approximately” and “Visions of Johanna.” Dylan’s smudged, hand-written and dogeared lyrics to the 1960s anthem “The Times They Are A-Changin” fetched $422,000 at Sotheby’s in December.

FROM PAGE 3 Jeramy, Joseph, Katrin, Derrick, Hector, Danielle, Patricia, Claudine, Nick, Kristine, Juli and a thousand others. It’s like Santa Barbarans get an idea in the morning and act on it by lunchtime – it is just one of the things that make this the most amazin’ city south of San Francisco.
The hot ticket in town is to the Santa Barbara Writers Conference, (June 18 at the Mar Monte Hotel on Cabrillo Boulevard), saved from the dead by Monte Schultz, a talented novelist and son of Charles Schultz, creator of the cartoon strip Peanuts. The conference was run by Barnaby Conrad for decades, including at the old Miramar Hotel, and now it’s back – featuring T.C. Boyle, and others. There were 25 spots left when I talked to Erin Schultz yesterday, so you might want to jump aboard. (www.sbwriters.com)
Dan Poynter, the legendary guru of self-publishing will be there, conducting a panel. Dan is currently taking nominations for his Global eBook Awards, which are the first of their kind, as far

as I know. He will take apps until June 30. He told me there are more than 140 book publishers and 375 published authors in the Santa Barbara area – impressive numbers considering the size of the community. Dan, as always, is a pioneer with these awards. If you are interested, check out: (www.GlobalebookAwards.com).
Last week, I gave props to my friend, Billy Mandarino, who plays in a great local band called the Ultra Violet Light Brigade. By the way, they packed SOhO last week. Anyway, I was more than a little surprised the next morning when I read in my column that “Billy and I” were going to play some smooth R&B tunes. I got excited thinking there was a groundswell of fans calling me out until I realized it was a typo. Somehow the guys in the layout room accidentally put me in the band – I appreciated it but it was news to Billy. Speaking of great local music, I miss Owen Plant and the Sunshine Brothers, who brightened up everybody’s day playing upbeat reggae outside Borders. I’ve worn out two of their CDs. Hope the band is booked around here sometime soon.

On a brighter note, this week I came across a list of answers that kids gave on the subject of marriage. Alan, age 10, was asked about the most important element of marriage. “You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff,” he said. “Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.”
And this from Lynnette, age eight, on dating. “Dates are for having fun and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough.” See you at the Savoy.

About Weinergate – the guy should not have survived his term even had he been honest about his X-rated Twittering, but the fact that he lied over and over again to the American people should earn him an immediate exit from Congress. Trust is a fragile thing; even on their best days it’s hard to trust some in Congress, and these aren’t Rep. Weiner’s best days.
