Sawyer Tower Stewart’s parents have dubbed her the Milk Lord of Milpas Hill.

“You can plan to do something,” said Big Daddy-O Ethan Stewart, “but if the Milk Lord must feed, then the Milk Lord must feed.” And her parents have learned she adores fireworks, which she delivered in full when she put her mom, Anna JensenStewart, through nearly 48 hours of the roughest, toughest labor Cottage’s nurses had seen in a long time (which, as all mothers know, is saying something). Welcome to the world, little Sawyer!

by N i c k W e l s h inda Louise Archer struggled with heavy-duty mental-health challenges that eventually hurled her onto the streets of Santa Barbara.

During the last few weeks of her life, those struggles intensified. The 43-yearold mother of two —remembered as being quiet, subdued, and better groomed than one might expect a homeless person to be—grew increasingly agitated that she was in physical danger. People, she told friends, were out to get her. For protection, Archer armed herself with mace. She carried a knife.

Archer may have been mentally ill, but it turned out she was far from crazy. On August 16, 1997, someone bludgeoned her to death, repeatedly smashing her face and head with what was most likely a tree stump. Archer’s body would be found in a concrete culvert visible to drivers getting off Highway 101 at Castillo Street. The knife she kept for protection had been stabbed into the ground just a few inches from her body.

Twice police investigators thought they had Archer’s killer. Twice they would be proved wrong. And for the past 18 years, her murder would remain almost as big a mystery as her life. Archer joined the ranks of 26 other unsolved murders — the earliest dating back to 1961 — that make up the Santa Barbara Police Department’s Cold Case file.

In the warren-like basement of police headquarters, there’s a cramped storage room known as the Dead Room. Jammed inside are boxes containing all the physical evidence accumulated for Santa Barbara’s cold cases.

There are 20 for the Archer investigation. In addition, there’s the blood-splattered tree branch found next to her. The actual murder weapon is stored elsewhere. So are seven binders containing more than 1,000 pages of notes.

Now leading the investigation is Detective Andy Hill, a 17-year veteran of the department. Hill was born and raised in Santa Barbara, graduating from San Marcos High School. Solidly built but not big enough to seem physically imposing, Hill—to a striking degree—does not radiate cop. He genuinely likes to talk. He’s inventive with language. He’s an even better listener. It’s a big part of the reason people tell Hill things they shouldn’t.

About a year ago, an on-again, off-again Santa Barbara resident named Manuel Salmeron Manzanares told Hill some things he probably shouldn’t have. Those things had to do with Linda Archer.

Authorities have closed the case on the tragic and bizarre death of 22-year-old Cody West, who went missing for five days this spring until his body was discovered pinned beneath his car at the bottom of a dry drainage ditch in Goleta. A coroner report says West, after leaving a nearby house party at 3:30 a.m., was attempting to push his car along the intersection of Los Carneros Road and Calle Real when both he and his car tumbled into the cement culvert below.

West was crushed and died at the scene. His mother remembered him as a “very loved and loving person.”

Film actor John Travolta will face former employee Douglas Gotterba in a trial at Santa Barbara Superior Court to decide whether a 28-year-old termination agreement can require Gotterba’s silence about his personal and professional experiences working under Travolta. The facts in the case date back to Gotterba’s 2012 National Enquirer interview, in which he announced plans to write a tell-all book exposing an alleged six-year affair with Travolta during his employment as a pilot in the 1980s. The case’s next court hearing is 8/7.

COUNTY

CASE CLOSED: The mystery of Linda Archer’s death may never be solved, but this week Santa Barbara police announced they closed the cold case stemming from her murder 18 years ago. Her body was found close to the Castillo Street off-ramp along the 101.

eral Penitentiary for illegally reentering the United States after being deported. A lifelong addict with a long list of felony convictions and aliases, the Mexican-born Manzanares —a house painter by trade and attendee of Santa Barbara public schools — had been deported twice before. Hill and Manzanares talked in a prison room where desks had been stacked on top of each other to create a semblance of a meeting space. Hill delivered what he described as a very detailed and carefully prepared “monologue.”

Manzanares listened.

That the meeting happened at all required Manzanares’s consent. Hill knew he had only one shot at what he was about to do. But he had an ace up his sleeve. Hill waited until the very end before playing it. “Tell me why your DNA is on the person of Linda Archer,” he demanded.

Manzanares got flustered. Eventually he spoke. For reasons having to do with legal strategy coupled with an abundance of instiindependent.com

tutional caution, neither Hill nor any of his departmental superiors are willing to categorize Manzanares’s statements as a confession.

But for all practical purposes it was. Hill said Manzanares “got some things off his chest that he’d been holding on to a long time.”

In TV crime shows, a DNA match leads inevitably and irresistibly to conviction. But in the real-world investigation of Linda Archer’s death, a DNA match by itself might not be enough. In the less-than-pristine environs of a homeless camp, there’s no shortage of possible explanations how one person’s DNA got mingled with someone else’s.“That would have been a lot harder to overcome without [Manzanares’s] statements,” Hill said.

Hill returned to Lompoc after their first meeting last July, but Manzanares refused to meet with him. “I’d say he’s conflicted,” Hill said.

On June 12 this year, Manzanares was released from Lompoc, having completed his cont’d page 12  federal sentence, and was

Six weeks after the Refugio Oil Spill, the federal agency responsible for pipeline safety announced it is introducing new rules to require pipeline operators to notify the National Response Center (NRC) within one hour of confirming the existence of a spill. Under current rules — enforced by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) — there is no enforceable time limit for notification.

In the aftermath of the Refugio spill, Plains All American Pipeline called the NRC at 2:54 p.m., even though county firefighters confirmed oil was gushing into the ocean from a culvert as early as noon. PHMSA is also recommending new rules to require drug and alcohol testing of pipeline company employees whose performance could have contributed to a previous spill.

A vigil was held Wednesday night for Raymond Herrera, the 52-year-old inmate from Lompoc who died 6/15 in County Jail. Critics of the jail’s medical service claim Herrera had not been given prescribed medications. According to a Coroner’s Report, Herrera died from internal bleeding from a ruptured spleen due to cirrhosis of the liver and hepatitis C. At the time of his booking on June 6, Sheriff’s spokesperson Kelly Hoover said, Herrera denied he was taking medication, but it was later determined he was prescribed medication for high blood pressure. Steps were taken, she said, to get him those meds. His death, Hoover noted, was not related to high blood pressure.

‘Way Too dangerous’ On thE EDgE: Ryan Bishop bombs down North San Marcos Road.

Skateboarding will soon be a crime on three steeply snaking Santa Barbara County roads deemed “way too dangerous” by the California Highway Patrol, which has been fielding an escalating number of complaints about downhill speed runs. On 7/7, the County Board of Supervisors voted 4-1 (with Supervisor Steve Lavagnino saying nay) to ban skateboarding on North San Marcos Road (often referred to as Old San Marcos), Painted Cave Road between Highway 154 and East Camino Cielo, and Gibraltar Road from Santa Barbara city limits to East Camino Cielo.

About a dozen skateboarders — “downhillers,” more specifically — spoke not only against the ban but to offer alternatives, such as making those roads safer for everybody by adding yellow centerlines and posting “Share the Road” or “Stay in Your Lane” signs along narrow stretches and blind corners. The skateboarders’ professional tone at the public podium didn’t fall on deaf ears — Supervisor Salud Carbajal, for one, called their cohesive advocacy “awesome” — but when it came down to brass tacks, the county opted to protect itself from potential liability if and when a downhiller takes a turn for the worse. “We see these [type of] litigations all the time — week in and week out,” said Supervisor Peter Adam.

While the CHP officially notified the board of an uptick in skateboarding last fall, the issue took prominence early last month when local downhiller Tara Tate strayed from her freshly paved lane on Gibraltar Road and hit an oncoming car head on, suffering serious injuries. Tate has since made a full recovery, and on Tuesday opponents of the law said it’s unfair for the CHP to spotlight a bad crash or two when the vast majority of Santa Barbara downhillers run a clean safety record. The law goes into effect later this summer, and those three roads will still be available for organized, — Keith Hamm permit-only downhill events.

The group, calling themselves Save the Valley, unsuccessfully sued the Chumash in July 2014 over the annexation of Camp 4.

Montecito Water District’s newest director, Charles Newman, was sworn in 7/7. A UCSB magna cum laude alumni with a political science degree, Newman earned his JD from the Washington University School of Law in 1973.

Since 2009, he’s been a partner at a Missouri firm representing the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District. According to a letter filed with his application, Newman’s area of specialization is managing teams of lawyers to defend complex class actions.

Those fishing grounds were closed from 5/19-6/29 and will remain tainted, according to the complaint: “[T]he market for Santa Barbara sea cucumbers may forever be harmed.” Additional plaintiffs state business losses, long-term financial impacts, and lost service-fee income.

StuCk: Matt Osgood lost his transfer bid because of incomplete information.

‘enigma’ denied Naples Mysterious Investor Can’t Take Ownership

T

by k e l s e y b r u g g e r

he fight to develop 1,000 acres of Gaviota real estate was blocked from moving forward this week when the county supervisors voted to deny the transfer of ownership of the Naples Project. Known to some enviro critics as the boogeyman of Gaviota, developer Matt Osgood lost the property to foreclosure in 2010 after failing to make payments to First National Bank. The firm Standard Portfolios Asset Management purchased the real estate—and hired Osgood to lead the development team—in January.

Earlier this year, Osgood submitted an application to the county’s Planning and Development department to transfer ownership, but the application was denied. The decision hinged on the fact that the application contained very little information about Standard’s financial resources or reputation to prove it could perform obligations outlined in the development agreement, including funds to restore Dos Pueblos Creek.

On Tuesday, the supervisors — excluding Peter Adam, who dissented, and Steve Lavagino, who left the meeting early—denied the appeal Osgood brought to them. The supervisors took issue with the fact that the county had no way of verifying the $2 million the company said is tucked away in an escrow account to fund those obligations. “I could tell you I have 5 bazillion dollars,” said Supervisor Salud Carbajal, but it means nothing unless audited by a third party.

What Standard Portfolios did produce for the hearing was a shiny 49-page brochure that, as Phil McKenna of Gaviota Coast Conservancy pointed out, was filled with nine and a half pages of beautiful photographs of dogs and ponies. The application is short on substance and fails to mention Osgood’s foreclosure, McKenna contended. Osgood was at the hearing, but the firm’s attorney, soft-spoken Stanley Lamport, who has been involved since 2002, made the case for him.

Lamport said Osgood’s fate was not an uncommon one after the market crashed in 2008. “Osgood didn’t create that,” he told the supervisors. Lamport laid out a narrow interpretation of the agreement; he said independent.com

Standard Portfolios has paid $100,000 to initiate planning to enhance the Dos Pueblos Creek, provided all assistance to complete the restoration plan, and overfunded it by nearly seven times the required amount.

“This is a contractual issue,” he said.

But a roomful of longtime conservationist committed to saving Naples, some holding colorful signs above their heads, begged to differ. While highlighting the natural beauty of Gaviota, they contended Osgood’s involvement this time around casts doubt on Standard Portfolio; further, the company’s experience is limited to purchasing rental apartment buildings in urban areas, and it knows nothing about the Central Coast.

“I’m still trying to figure out who this entity is,” Carbajal said of the firm, adding that if you look up “enigma” in the dictionary, you will find Standard Portfolios. The principal for the firm is a low-profile man named David Liu, a Chinese-American investor from Arcadia.

Supervisors Doreen Farr, who represents Gaviota, and Janet Wolf further noted how little information is out there about Standard Portfolios. Wolf rattled off info she discovered about the company on the Internet that was “not very positive.” Noting she was uncertain with the accuracy of her searches, she concluded, “I don’t have enough verifiable information.”

As he often does, Supervisor Adam dif differed from his colleagues’ opinion. “If we never let anyone develop, we can’t get anyone with experience,” he said. “Nothing is going to be good enough.” Although the appeal was denied, the supervisors told Lamport that Standard Portfolio could resubmit an application to transfer ownership.

After the vote, an anguished Lamport said in an interview, “It’s not like the project died today. We’re still baking.” As to what the company will do moving forward, Lamport could not say for sure.What he did seem certain about was the unrelenting fight between developers and Gaviota conservationists.

“There are days when I think if I wake up and announce to my opposition it’s sunny out, they will contend it’s cloudy,” he said. n July 9, 2015

Trash-Talking Tajiguas Continuing the charged tale of the Tajiguas Landfill, the supervisors gave Public Works staff the go-ahead this week to study public funding options for high-tech equipment that will prolong the dump’s life by a decade. This new technology — a materials recovery facility (MRF) and an anaerobic digester — would extract recyclables and compostable material from the waste stream and then capture methane to generate electricity. Two years ago, the county hired Mustang Renewable Power Ventures to construct that state-of-the-art facility, which would recover 60 percent of garbage buried in the dump.

It now costs $84 per ton to dump at Tajiguas Landfill. County public works staff and Mustang recently hashed out a deal that would bring the fee to $146 per ton. That figure is double the price tag for comparable dumps in the state, a critic noted Tuesday.

In rare form, environmentalists and fiscal conservatives alike took to the podium to argue against the project. The enviros have long taken issue with the fact that the project means further industrialization on the coast. Likewise, COLAB’s Andy Caldwell noted many of the financial details of the project are still uncertain, further arguing ratepayers — not all county taxpayers — should be funding this “dream project.” The price tag of the anaerobic digester ranges from $40 million-$50 million, Public Works staff said, and the county could receive $3 million from a state grant which would reduce the per-ton price by three to four dollars.

“We’re in between a rock and a hard place,” said Supervisor Salud Carbajal, juxtaposing his record that has “championed the protection of the Gaviota Coast” against the benefits, including mitigating greenhouse-gas emissions equivalent to roughly 26,000 cars. All supervisors agreed more information about public funding options — Kelsey Brugger would be useful.

Californians make up 17,485, an 8 percent decrease from last year, while international students decreased to 2,748, a 4 percent drop. Out-ofstate students admitted increased to 2,841, a 15 percent jump. UCSB administrators anticipate a couple hundred fewer freshmen will actually enroll, or about 4,380.

Admitted applicants have an average high school grade point average of 4.19 — an alltime high — and an SAT score of 1,975 out of 2,400. Nearly a quarter of those admitted are minority group members.

With an impressive résumé in positions at Harvard, Yale, and the U.S. Treasury Department, Longbrake played an instrumental role in developing the school’s digital communications strategy. He heads to the University of Chicago to take over as Vice President for Communications on 8/24. Chancellor Henry Yang said in a statement he is grateful for Longbrake’s “many contributions” and wished him “well in the next phase of his career.”

robotics obotics Program unplugged unplugged

SPECIAL

The locally popular and nationally recognized robotics program at Dos Pueblos Engineering Academy (DPEA) has been discontinued — abruptly and without public explanation — prompting Dos Pueblos High School students to vent their confusion and sadness at Tuesday evening’s Santa Barbara Unified School District board meeting.

Lining up at the speakers podium, students looking forward to their senior year on the program’s award-winning Team 1717 expressed dashed dreams after frontloading coursework for three years to make room for final DPEA demands. “We were promised a robot,” one speaker said, adding to the general sentiment that DPEA “mentors [are] baffled, parents angry, and students, quite frankly, feel betrayed,” according to another.

The decision to retire robotics “weighed heavily throughout the decision-making process and still weighs heavily on all of the DPEA staff,” according to a written statement from Dos Pueblos Principal Shawn Carey and DPEA Director Amir AboShaeer, among others at DPEA. Last year, the robotics senior project ran side-by-side with the inaugural Mechatronics multidisciplinary program, a concurrency that DPEA shot-callers have since deemed “not educationally appropriate,” according to the statement.

Explaining that his board had nothing to do with DPEA’s decision to unplug robotics, president Ed Heron and the others could only listen to the students’ laments and accept Superintendent David Cash’s offer to return with any feedback — Keith Hamm from questions he’s prepared for Carey and Abo-Shaeer.

In an impressive display of fundraising, Supervisor Salud Carbajal has collected more than $600,000 since declaring his candidacy in the race to replace Rep. Lois Capps.

After expenses, Democrat Carbajal sits on more than half a million dollars cash, a year before the primary election, according to his campaign. Carbajal said he was “grateful and humbled” by the financial backing he’s received so far, adding that the “broad support is an affirmation of the work I’ve done to date” as an elected official.

Supervisor Salud Carbajal “My record speaks for itself,” he said.

July 15 is the legal deadline for candidates to file their fundraising statements for the just-completed quarter of the campaign cycle. However, in response to inquiries

by The Santa Barbara Independent, a Carbajal strategist provided details of the report he plans to file in the contest for the 24th Congressional District. Similar figures were made available from his chief rivals, Mayor Helene Schneider, a fellow Democrat, and Republican Assemblymember Katcho Achadjian of San Luis Obispo.

But Carbajal’s big haul appears likely to be setting a blistering pace in the crucial quest for early donations and to establish a high bar for the stakes needed to be competitive. Carbajal acknowledged that Capps’s endorsement was “very helpful,” saying, “It’s a very important endorsement.” The 24th District seat, which includes Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties, and a small slice of Ventura County, became open when Capps, a 17-year veteran of the House, announced in April she will retire at the end of her current term.

Schneider has raised $225,000 as of June 30, according to her campaign spokesperson, who added a majority of Schneider’s contributions came from female donors.

“This is a campaign that is citizen-powered and citizen-energized,” Schneider said in a statement. “We are a movement, comprised of women, environmentalists, working families, LGBTQ community leaders, concerned residents, engaged neighborhood folks, grassroots activists, small business owners, and everyday Central Coast residents.”

Achadjian brought $120,000 and said he is “very pleased” with the amount of money he was able to raise in a relatively short period of time. Achadjian said he is geared up to raise “a very competitive amount” in the coming quarters, and that his State Assembly duties have so far kept him quite busy in Sacramento. “I look forward to getting back on the campaign trail when the Legislature goes on recess,” he said.

CRIME SCEnE: Police investigators found the contents of Archer’s purse strewn on the

ground (above) near her body. At the time of Archer’s murder, Manuel Manzanares (below), then 18, was nowhere on any investigator’s radar.

immediately taken into custody by Santa Barbara police for the murder of Linda Archer. Since then he’s been parked in the Santa Barbara County Jail, awaiting trial or, more likely, a negotiated settlement.

Without Manzanares’s statements, defense attorneys would have had an obvious line of attack. City police mistakenly thought they had the killer two times before.

The first suspect, Gregory Gavin, shared a campsite with Archer. When police first encountered him, he appeared to have blood on his clothes. His girlfriend was wearing shoes taken off Archer’s feet. And he’d buried several other possessions belonging to Archer. But what was thought to be human blood was more likely — according to one investigator — Chinese food. And if Gavin acted weirdly, that was consistent with how he’d behaved during his 20 years on the streets. He was cut loose before charges were ever filed.

Sergeant Mike McGrew, then a detective, headed the initial investigation, and from early on, he had his eyes on John Dalton, a violent sex offender paroled to Santa Barbara after raping his sister with her 2-year-old in the bed.“He was a serious bad guy,” McGrew said. Dalton had been seen with Archer the night before her death. His girlfriend at the time told police he’d told her to lie to establish an alibi. Thirty minutes after the crime, the girlfriend claimed, Dalton had shown up in her room at the Virginia Hotel to wash blood off his hands. Cops seized the hotel room sink. No blood was detected. Even so, the sink remains stored as evidence in the Dead Room.

McGrew made it his mission in life to bird-dog Dalton. The conditions of his parole prohibited Dalton from drinking.

McGrew made sure Dalton’s parole officer knew every time Dalton had a drink. When Dalton was sent to prison for such violations, McGrew visited him there. When Dalton was released, McGrew was waiting.

Murder charges would not be filed until 2000, however, after Dalton’s cellmate at

Corcoran State Prison notified authorities Dalton confessed to killing Archer. Dalton believed all women were evil, the cellmate said, and that Archer was especially evil. McGrew thought the confession was genuine because Dalton told his cellmate things he believed no one but the killer could have known. Dalton denied making any such admissions, but he was arrested for murder and held in County Jail for about a year.

Halfway through his preliminary trial, however, Dalton’s DNA tests came up negative. He, too, was cut loose. Dalton would be killed while jaywalking across the Las Vegas Strip in 2006. Looking back, McGrew said, “That guy definitely did not like me. But I guess I can see why, given that he didn’t do it.”

craviNg closure

Unsolved murders are notoriously hard on victims’ families, who find themselves forced to navigate indeterminate sentences of suspended agitation pending some break in the case. With cold cases, it’s trickier still.

“Where you were 25 years ago is very different from where you are today,” said Megan Riker-Rheinschild of Santa Barbara County’s Victim Witness Assistance program. “You’re dredging a lot of really old stuff.” For cops, there’s no simple approach.“It’s difficult,” said Sergeant James Ella, who heads the department’s Crimes Against Persons detail. “A lot of family members don’t want to be contacted unless we make an arrest. Some want to be kept apprised anyway. It’s hard.”

Santa Barbara Police Chief Cam Sanchez started a cold-case-crimes unit soon after he was appointed chief in 2000. Based on budget considerations, that unit has been disbanded and its function absorbed by the nine Crimes Against Persons detectives. One day a month, the detectives and their supervisors meet to discuss any developments. To the extent there’s hope, it’s in the evolving technology of DNA analysis.

Archer grew up in Monrovia, the third of five kids. Both parents were born in Massachusetts, and both were dead by the time

to find family members, friends, employers who could tell about his character, habits, temper, so we could create a picture of who he was back then and who he’d come to be.”

Hill sees Manzanares’s criminal profile — court records show car thefts, spousal abuse, Social Security Card forgery, strong-arm robbery, drug possession — through the lens of a “struggling addict.” In other words, Manzanares did what he had to to feed his addiction. Hill also had to navigate multiple aliases to determine when Manzanares could have been in Santa Barbara and when he was behind bars. Nothing he found out precluded Manzanares from being the killer.

(Assuming police are right about Manzanares, the Archer murder preceded any deportation efforts.)

Hill then set out to track down witnesses from the initial Archer investigation. It proved easier than he expected, though it required trips to San Luis Obispo, Arizona, and Los Angeles. They helped reestablish time lines essential for any successful prosecution. But not one of the witnesses knew anything about Manuel Manzanares. “He was completely off our radar,” Hill said.

of her murder. Her father served in the military during WWII and worked as a welder in the aerospace industry after. That they were buried in separate cemeteries suggests divorce, but not much is really known about Archer’s early days.“She came from an average middle-class family and was raised in an average middle-class neighborhood,” Hill said. She had two kids in her teens with a man named Archer. That relationship would not survive her early twenties.

Whatever mental-health issues she had, Hill said, were accelerated by the use of drugs.

Slowly and gradually, it seems, Archer’s life fell apart. “She lost things,” Hill said, meaning her car, her job, and connection to her children. At some point, she became homeless, traveling the loop between Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara. At the time of her murder, police said Archer had been in town a year. She made beaded jewelry and sold it in city parks. She didn’t panhandle and kept a decidedly low profile. Archer never asked for help or services, recalled Ken Williams, then a county social worker. “She just didn’t belong,” he wrote shortly after her murder.

Only when you looked closely, he stated, could signs of stress be detected. “The eyes were always on guard as if she expected trouble around the next corner.”

Homeless camps are notoriously dangerous for women. McGrew recalled Archer being tough and ready to stand her ground.

Earlier that same summer, a 42-year-old homeless woman had been raped and killed on the 500 block of East Cota Street. A 44-year-old woman, not homeless, had been raped and killed behind the Carrillo Hotel —now the Canary. None of those murders would be linked to Archer’s. But clearly, they would have fueled Archer’s sense of imminent danger.

Before Hill was assigned the Archer case, it belonged to Detective Brian Jensen. It was Jensen who discovered in December 2012 that the DNA samples initially taken off Archer had not been uploaded into CODIS, the nationwide databank linking DNA samples and all individuals convicted of felonies. By January, Jensen rectified that omission. Five days later, he got a match.

It was Manuel Manzanares. Back in 2000, DNA samples were not automatically sent to CODIS (Combined DNA Index System) as they are now, Sergeant Riley Harwood said; instead, they were sent to private labs.

Hill took over the Archer case in February 2013. His first order of business was to find out who Manzanares was. “I was trying

In 1997, Manzanares was 18, couch surfing, and quasi-transient. He used services available to homeless people. Of Manzanares and Archer, Hill said,“They didn’t travel in any of the same circles, but they physically used the same routes to get to their respective destinations.” As to what triggered the eruption of violence that left Archer dead, Hill knows but isn’t saying. “Let’s just say it’s not a mystery,” he explained.

K.C. Williamson, attorney for Manzanares, declined to comment on the particulars of his client’s case other than to say he’s currently wading through 1,000-plus pages of discovery. Typically cases as seemingly strong as the one against Manzanares settle before going to trial, but not always. Detective Hill cautioned, “It all depends what the offer is,” referring to how much time Manzanares might have to serve.

To the extent Archer kept in touch with any relatives during her life, it was with her youngest sister, Elizabeth. According to Hill, she helped raise Archer’s two children and bore the brunt of Archer’s “lifestyle choices.”

For her part, Elizabeth had no interest in talking. “If this person is found guilty, I may have something to say,” she said via email.

For the time being, Manzanares is being n held on $1 million bail.

The Divine Canine

YIN VS. YANG: Tell me I was dreaming. I woke up this morning convinced Chumash Casino had booked the ultimate pay-per-

view knock-down-drag-out in the heavyweight class: The Pope versus Donald Trump.

And if not, my question is, why not? It would feature the ultimate confrontation between the best and worst angels of our nature. And who else on the Planet could concoct such a spectacle but the folks running the show up at the casino?

At this nanosecond in history, I recognize that bagging further on The Donald has become the equivalent of beating a dead horse with two hoofs tied behind its back.

For 30 years, Trump has burned through many fortunes — the man’s worth $8.7 billion even though he’s declared bankruptcy four times—by cornering the market on ugly and offensive. To let Trump’s latest diatribes against Mexican immigrants get under your skin — they’re rapists, drug dealers, not to mention the very worst elements of Mexican society, but some, he said he assumes,“are good people”—is to fall hook, line, and sinker for one of the most obviously cynical branding campaigns ever.

But this time might be different.

The good news is that Big Business — never known to be unduly squeamish—can’t distance itself from The Donald fast enough.

Miss America, Miss Universe, NBC, the PGA, ESPN, Macy’s, and, yes, even NASCAR have

decided to shun Trump by curtailing various and sundry business relationships. The bad news is that despite all this, The Donald ranked second of all 16 Republican presidential aspirants in a recent CNN poll. He placed, second, as well, in a poll of likely Iowa and New Hampshire voters.

I accidentally celebrated the Fourth of July by taking a call from a guy who just happened to be an immigrant from Peru, sounding off about how city parking patrol officers have been ticketing customers at his auto transmission shop, located in an alleyway between Gutierrez and Montecito streets. How did it make sense for City Hall to issue him a business license—and to take money from him—to fix transmissions at his location, he demanded, if it was illegal for his customers to park there? For the record, there is a no-parking sign. Even so, I felt his point; I saw his pain. But inevitably, inexorably, the conversation shifted to Trump. How could it not? “America is better than that!” the man exclaimed. “America is bigger than that.” He totally got me. In that moment, a foreign-born immigrant I’d never met managed to make me feel genuinely patriotic. Were it not for the drought, I would have run around the neighborhood with sparklers blazing in my hair, throwing M-80s at the sky. As an added cherry on top, he reminded me how a Latinoowned beer company that’s been making Trump Tower beer changed the name of the brew to Chinga Tu Pelo. In Spanish, that

means “Fuck Your Hair.” Can’t get more succinct than that.

Meanwhile, our rock-star Pope has been drawing millions during his tour of South America, inveighing mightily against economic exploitation, environmental depredation, and rapacious consumerism all with an astonishingly light touch given the Debbie Downer subject matter. Francis manages to get across to the extent he does because he’s got his fingers strategically plugged into the twin light sockets of forgiveness and redemption rather than dispatching the Church’s bread-and-butter demons of guilt and shame. Such abject fawning aside, The Pope would be far more persuasive by declaring the Church was cool with birth control.

With more than seven billion of us on the planet, it’s obviously time to put on the reproductive brakes. Equally obvious are the economic and environmental benefits of doing so.

While on the road, the Pope’s been banging the gong as part of his campaign to soon make saints out of Father Junípero Serra — founder of the California missions and decimator of native populations— and former Salvadoran Archbishop Óscar Romero. I say former because in 1980, Romero was shot to death while saying mass by right-wing death squads armed, trained, and bankrolled by the United States. Without our intervention in that fight, it’s doubtful the war would have lasted nearly as long—12 years—or been so

bloody — 75,000 killed. Dead bodies became so plentiful that birds feeding on the remains grew so heavy and fat they could no longer fly. (I don’t pretend to know on what flimsy technical grounds Romero will be sanctified, but they have to be as strong as the stretched rationale to justify sainthood for Serra, about whom the nicest thing that can be said is that he loved the Chumash to death. If Serra— an agent of colonial empire—gets the nod, then Romero, an agent of colonial resistance, should, too.) All that took place in the heyday of Ronald Reagan’s cheerfully unapologetic policy of arming any Central American goons willing to profess ardent anti-communism and to sacrifice other people’s blood.

That’s ancient history now, but one of the consequences of this policy was a massive exodus by residents of the affected countries.

Naturally, many came to the United States.

Many, it seems, now work for The Donald himself. Recent news articles suggest that a large percentage of the construction workers now building the new $200 million Trump International Hotel, located just five blocks from the White House, are undocumented immigrants from those Central American countries, most of whom entered the United States illegally. This might seem hypocritical, but it’s really not. Trump never talked shit about Central Americans, only Mexicans.

I ardently hope the booking agents working for the casino can make my foolish dreams come true. If not, I’ll have to get by with Chinga Tu Pelo! I think I’ll manage.

Joshua Christiansson

A Celebration of Life for Joshua Christiansson and Grandmother Karen will take place on Sunday, July 12, 1-4 pm at 2427 Murrell Rd., Santa Barbara.

Karen Christiansson 10/01/32 – 06/03/15

eyesight forced her to give up singing as she could no longer read the music.

But this didn’t stop her from continuing to knit. During the last five years, she began knitting for various charities, including baby hats for Cottage Hospital and hats and scarves for Stand Down for Veterans, participating in two local knitting groups.

Karen was predeceased by her brother, Henning Yde, and her grandson, Joshua Christiansson. Besides her three daughters, she leaves behind two sons-in-law, Michael Luth (Hanne) and Dennis Trammell (Lise); three grandchildren (Morgan, Eric and Megan Luth); two greatgrandchildren (Joslynne and Athena Christiansson); and a brother (Leif Yde), as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews. She had the joy of seeing her daughter Jette become recently engaged to Tony Manuel.

A celebration of her life and the life of her grandson, Joshua, will be held on Sunday, July 12, 2015, 1-4 pm at the house where she lived for over 49 years. If you would like to remember Karen, please do so with a donation to your favorite charity.

rancher, at a dance in Los Olivos. The couple raised three boys, Deming, Bill, and Bob, on the ranch. Esther remembered when the first telephone was put in and several ranches shared the same line. All her life, she kept phone conversations brief, scarcely saying goodbye before hanging up. During World War II, Baine served as a lookout for Japanese planes along the local coast, and the couple put up the mandatory blackout curtains each night at the ranch house. After Baine’s death in 1973, Esther traveled extensively. At home on El Chorro, she enjoyed reading, gardening, and hosting kite-flying parties and memorable children’s treasure hunts. She was preceded in death by her son Bob, and daughtersin-law Katherine and Karen. She leaves behind two sons, Deming and Bill; daughter-in-law Sally; six grandchildren, Tyler, Copeland, John, Tom, Holly and Katie Isaacson; and nine great-grandchildren. Several generations of the family continue to reside on El Chorro. The family is very grateful to Esther’s devoted caregivers. Details of a memorial celebration will be announced later. Donations in Esther’s memory may be made to the Wildling Art Museum, 1511-B Mission Drive, Solvang, CA 93463.

Robert Harris Ripley, Jr. 03/04/39 – 03/26/15 Karen Christiansson passed away peacefully and unexpectedly in her sleep on the afternoon of June 3, 2015.

She was deeply loved by her family and many friends and will be remembered for her big heart, kind spirit, generosity, creativity and love for life.

Karen was born in Mellerup, Denmark, on October 1, 1932, the only daughter and youngest child of Sigvard and Marie Christensen.

Exhibiting a love of cooking, sewing and knitting, she attended a local Home Economics college where she continued to perfect her skills in these crafts. In 1954, she married Mogens Christiansson and moved to the United States in 1956 after the birth of their daughter, Jette, in 1955. After living in Newark, New Jersey, for six months, she and her family moved west and eventually settled in Santa Barbara where they had two more daughters, Lise, born in 1957, and Hanne, born in 1958.

Karen became involved in the local PTA and was a Girl Scout leader for her daughters throughout the years they attended grade school. Living far away from her family in Denmark, Karen joined the local Danish Sisterhood of America lodge to maintain and continue the Danish traditions she had been brought up with, and she had recently been presented with her 50-year membership pin in the Danish Sisterhood. She took her first trip back to Denmark in 1963 and continued traveling back to “the old country” until her last trip back in 2014.

Karen discovered a love of singing and joined the Santa Barbara Treble Clef Women’s Chorus in 1999, where she sang 2nd Soprano until her failing 16

Esther Isaacson 12/28/1912 – 05/25/2015

With the passing of Esther Isaacson on May 25 at age 102, the Santa Barbara County ranching community has lost a living link to its history. Esther died at home on Rancho El Chorro, east of Lompoc, where she had lived since arriving as a bride in 1939. She was the second child born in Solvang, where her parents, Anton and Karen Ibsen, had helped to establish the Danish community in 1910. Anton Ibsen built numerous buildings in the town and surrounding valley before his untimely death when Esther was a young child. She went on to earn a teaching credential from Santa Barbara State College and taught at the Solvang Grammar School. She met her husband, Baine Isaacson, a cattle

Donald Friedman 06/15/27 – 06/16/15

The world lost a good man, a “mensch,” on June 16, 2015. Donald Friedman passed away peacefully of old age at Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, California, just 1 day after celebrating his 88th birthday with his loving family. He is survived by his younger brother Murray and sister

Phyllis Rosen; the family matriarch Rachel; 6 children Keith, Cheryl, Anne Kimberly, Cindy, Susie, and Georgette and spouses; 7 grandchildren and spouses; and 4 great grandchildren. At Don’s request, a private gathering will be held in early July. A public celebration of life will be held on August 29, 2015, for his friends, professional colleagues, clients and others who want to honor him for his lifetime of love and engineering innovations and accomplishments. Don always loved a party; he cherished gathering his peeps to brainstorm, debate, and perhaps join efforts toward the greater good. His ashes will be spread at sea, where he loved to marlin fish.

Don was born in Brooklyn, New York, on June 15, 1927, the first son of George and Gertrude Friedman.

When he was 17, he entered the navy and served his country in WWII. In 1948, he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from Vanderbilt University. Don was married three times, all to wonderful women who enriched and fulfilled his life in interesting and unexpected ways. As his professional career continued to bloom and grow, so did the children. Don and family moved to Santa Barbara for the first time in 1961, when he worked for General Motors.

In 1968 he permanently settled in Santa Barbara. Don also enjoyed 25 years with Peterje, his third wife; they went to the Symphony and traveled the world by land, air and sea! In his later years, Don could not hear or see well, but he was sharp as a tack and was filled with ideas and hope for the future. Every Wednesday, he ate lunch with “the boys” he worked with 40 years before.

Professionally, Don is respected internationally for his accomplishments. Don identified his life’s most significant contributions to technology. He, as principal or with a team, designed, developed and produced the periscope system for the Nautilus, the first nuclear submarine; a high-performance electric drive; the infrared seeker and guidance control for the Sidewinder missile, which was the first airplane-mounted missile able to track a target and shoot it down and instrumental weaponry in the Korean war; the three Lunar Rovers that landed on the moon, unfolded their wheels and traversed the lunar surface; the Minicars Transit and Car Rental System; experimental, research, large and electronic research safety vehicles; a dynamic dummy-occupied fullscale vehicle rollover crash test fixture (JRS) and quasistatic full-scale vehicle roof strength test fixture (M216); the HALO™ rollover protective systems for light truck vehicles used in, for example, the mining industry; and proofs of electronic drive-by-wire system algorithm defects.

Don was a pioneer of vehicle crashworthiness and occupant safety research and testing, saving thousands of lives. He authored more than 150 technical papers and 7, patents, and testified before Congress on numerous

In remembrance of ROBERT EUGENE MARSHALL: loving husband, father and grandfather, January 3, 1922 - June 10, 2015: Robert “Bob” Marshall passed away peacefully in his sleep during the early hours of June 10, 2015. Bob was born in Green Bay, Wisconsin to Francis and Lillian Marshall. The family moved around Wisconsin, living in Milwaukee, Shorewood and Sheboygan.

Bob met the love of his life and future wife, Phyllis Miller, in Sheboygan, Wisconsin in 1949. The two married in 1950 and remained together for 61 years. The couple had 4 children over the next 9 years, James, Jeffrey, Judith and John.

Bob graduated from the University of Wisconsin at Madison with a degree in engineering. His career in engineering started in earnest in 1950 when he took a position at AC Spark Plug, a division of General Motors located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Bob moved up in the corporation and soon began working for the Delco division of GM. In 1962, GM created the General Motors Research Laboratories (Delco Systems Operations), based in Santa Barbara, CA, to conduct research and development activities on defense systems. Bob’s work started to take him to Santa Barbara more and more often, so in 1968 he moved his family to a new home in Goleta, CA. While at Delco, Bob worked as a Senior Project Engineer and had the opportunity to design a number of defense projects, as well as work on the Mariner (Mars probe) and the prototype of the NASA Moon Buggy. Bob took early retirement from Delco in 1980.

In 1976, Bob and Phyllis Marshall created and opened a retail store called Nature’s Own, which specialized in selling rocks, minerals and fossils. The store was an immediate success, and having out-grown its location in De La Guerra Plaza, they moved into El Paseo in 1978. They continued to add store locations in Solvang and Palm Springs. The City of Santa Barbara was rebuilding Stearns Wharf, so in 1981, Nature’s Own was the first to secure a lease and open a store on the Wharf. Being oceanrelated, Nature’s Own added shells and coral to its wares. Later Nature’s Own incorporated with Bob Marshall as president. Following incorporation new locations were added such as 915 State Street, in Santa Barbara, 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica and Beverly Center.

Bob, who loved working with his hands, designed many of the stores as well as made many of the cabinets and fixtures. He also made many of the fine necklaces and jewelry for Nature’s Own. In his later years, Bob became the primary health-care provider for his wife, Phyllis, who had developed Alzheimer’s. He steadfastly cared for her until her passing.

Robert Marshall was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Phyllis Marshall (2011), and his sibling, Dorothy Vander Leest of Cave Creek, Arizona.

He is survived by his children, James Marshall (64), Jeffrey Marshall (63), Judith Bruskin (61) and Jon Marshall (55), his son-in-law Neil Bruskin (62) and his grandchildren, Natasha Bruskin (22) and Noah Bruskin (19).

Donald Davis 10/31/50 – 06/27/15

Born in central California on Oct. 31, 1950. Graduated from Cate School, class of 1968, also graduated from Rhode Island School of Design in 1972.

Lived and studied sculpture in Carrara, Italy. He returned to Santa Barbara for the last 40 years, sculpting at his studio in the Funk Zone for 29 years.

Passed at home June 27, 2015 from brain cancer. Donald leaves behind his wife, Wendy (Wilton), and dog, Toto, his mother Janet, and brothers Bo, Mike and their families, brother and sister in law, Mike and Kuulei Wilton, and their Family. He understood and exercised the tenants of “a life well lived”, and he left with extraordinary grace.

There will be a remembrance honoring Donald on Tuesday, July 14th at Chase Palm Park Center, 236 E. Cabrillo Blvd., beginning At 1:00 pm.

Striking Out in the Cox Monopoly

BOOB TUBE LOSER: I love to watch the

Dodgers on TV—or I used to. These days I can’t, at home anyway. I’m in the wrong cable monopoly.

Santa Barbara long ago awarded its cable monopoly to Cox, and when it comes to the Boys in Blue, Cox whiffed, fanned … struck out. The Cox corporate suits, which for reasons not clear to me other than greed, have turned their noses up at the Dodgers for a second year.

But just over the invisible county line on the Rincon, Venturans have no problem tuning in to the first-place former Trolley Dodgers of Brooklyn. Ventura, see, is served by Time Warner Cable, which made a big Big Bucks deal with the Dodgers to screen the games.

Cox did not but keeps claiming (yawn) to be working on one. I am not optimistic.

I suppose if I had a mind to, I could take a scenic drive to Cronies Sports Grill at 2855 Johnson Drive in a quaint Ventura shopping mall. There, I’m informed, the Dodgers are on the tube daily. The gang there can gather for a cold one or two and slap high fives at Yasiel Puig’s homers or yell in disbelief at his baserunning goofs.

Sure beats Fox News.

The Dodgers are relishing being in first place (at this writing) in the National League West, headed for (I’m sure) the World Series.

It sure must be fun at Cronies these days.

But there’s no joy at my house. I fixed up the garage with a huge flat screen and sofas, all the better to watch the games in leisure. Banished the car to the driveway. But now it’s just a dark cavern. I don’t even want to go in there.

I called over to Cronies the other night, just to make sure. “You have them on every night?” I asked, incredulously.“Yes we do,” the friendly barkeep assured me. “Every night.”

Buffalo wings, burgers, beer, the whole nutritional menu.

Even Barney’s Beanery in West Hollywood carries the Bums. Look, San Joaquin Valley rednecks have no trouble watching the Dodgers on the tube. Folks in places like lovely Bakersfield, Tehachapi, Taft, and Delano can blow the dust off the couch, slump down, grab a Bud, and watch the Dodgers lose to the St. Louis Cardinals once again.

That’s because a small cable company called Bright House made a deal with Time Warner to serve the region — up to but not including Santa Barbara.

So when will the Santa Barbara Cox blackout end? I talked to one of its operatives. We’re working on it, she told me. Really? I fear that Puig will be shagging foul balls in some Pismo Beach senior league before the Bums hit my tube.

In the meantime, I pay Cox serious money monthly for shows like Swamp People, Ice Road Truckers, Alaskan Bush People, Appa-

I’ve heard there are ways digital hipsters use to sneak around the Cox Dodgers blackout, but I don’t want the Cox suits coming after me, banging on my garage door.

Maybe I’ll just put the car back in.

OIL MONEY: I see where BP has reached an $18.7 billion settlement over its 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Barry Cappello (he just sued Plains over our spill), are you listening?

TWO TO TANGO: With the summer dol-

drums upon us, political junkies are taking great interest in the ongoing battle between Demos Mayor Helene Schneider and 1st District Supervisor Salud Carbajal to take over nine-term Rep. Lois Capps’s House seat.

I can’t recall the last time two high-profile local politicians from the same party took each other on for Congress. Capps announced her retirement in early April, with 18 whole months left in her term. Schneider and Carbajal jumped right into the scrum within 24 hours and have been raising tons of money, gathering endorsements, and sending off regular press releases. Capps soon endorsed Carbajal, which struck some as unusually early, seeing as how the primary won’t take

place until next June. Just how much liberals Schneider and Carbajal will differ on campaign issues remains to be seen. So far, not much. They’re both against the oil spill.

Torture Okayed in S.B.

T

he District Attorney, the officer who investigated the crime, and the veterinarian who worked to save the Doberman puppy all testified in court that Duanying Chen had committed the most heinous act of torture and abuse they had witnessed in their careers. The veterinarian testified that the varying levels of healing of the injuries created no doubt that the injuries occurred over a period of time. The puppy’s suffering was so grave the veterinarian recommended euthanasia as the kindest course of action.

Chen expressed no remorse and stated that he did not understand what the big deal was when he was arrested.

Judge Hill stated that he had discretion to determine whether Chen would serve the maximum sentence of seven years, six months in state prison for felony animal cruelty. He then said justice would not be served by state prison but that probation with treatment programs and restrictions on Chen’s rights to own an animal were sufficient and would “send a message.” A year (maybe) in County Jail and five years’ probation definitely sent a message: To others who would inflict violence on animals, torture and abuse will go unpunished.

Today, the monsters won. I invite my fellow citizens to join me in asking our lawmakers to have mandatory minimum sentences for felony animal cruelty convictions.

Substance-Free

O

ver the years, an increase in underage drinking, distracted driving, and drug use combine to threaten the lives of youth. Friday Night Live promotes a safe and healthier lifestyle for all on our junior high and high school campuses. Each year, we put on two campaigns that encourage students to commit to be drug- and alcohol-free, and campaign club members educate their peers on the negative effects of substance abuse. Santa Barbara High School organized a rally that included music, games, food, and other activities to encourage students to make smarter choices. It’s great to see teens throughout Santa Barbara, Carpinteria, Goleta, and Santa Maria wearing their “committed” wristbands with pride.

Our coalition knows that our work is far from over.

We face issues that include teen access to alcohol and drugs at home or at parties. With the help of local law enforcement agencies, city council, and adult allies, we can make our community more aware of the dangers — Cinthia Lopez, S.B. of drugs and alcohol.

hat Chen did was not the whimsy of youth, as Judge Hill implied when he mentioned Chen was “only 19” when he committed the crime. Perhaps Chen’s mother “got” to Hill when she pled for mercy.

Whether China tolerates animal abuse or not seems irrelevant. And this is not about if Chen knew the law.

We are talking about a human being who takes pleasure in torturing an animal — a psychopath, a danger to any community.

Chen may learn how to behave as if he were “cured,” but this leopard will not be able to change his spots.

Hill even alluded to the “sadistic tendencies” of this man and how it was obviously a “pattern.” I felt suckerpunched when Hill announced Chen is not “beyond redemption” and wanted to give him a second chance.

I wonder who else will be tortured as a result.

The Origin STOry

Officially called Resistance Flexibility and Strength Training (RFST), this sophisticated Frankenstein of yoga, Chinese medicine, psychology, and strength training isn’t necessarily anything new. For years, it’s been used by world-class athletes as a semisecret workout weapon, perhaps most famously by Dara Torres, the American swimmer who, at the age of 41, won three silver medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics thanks largely to her work with Cooley. Then there’s the long list of Hollywood and business-world A-listers who’ve had Cooley fix everything from chronic injuries and autoimmune diseases to overinflated waistlines and blown-out knees. (Confidentiality agreements prevent disclosure of client names, but many have singular, household names, some living right here on the South Coast.)

Yet with an emphasis on perfecting methods rather than raising the public profile, RFST remains largely unknown to the public at large, despite nearly three decades of small miracles, growing ranks of trained instructors, a book published by Simon & Schuster, and two bustling studios on either end of the continent. “I think it is hard for the mainstream to grasp the idea that one approach can help an acute injury as well as your psychology as well as chronic disease as well as your emotional health,” explained Cooley. “It is a mind-bending concept, to say the least, and big leap for most people to make.”

Cooley, who was born in Virginia, opened his first kinesiology think tank in Boston in the 1970s. And, though he dabbled as a math and quantum physics professor at the University of Massachusetts and Williams College for a handful of years, his obsession with body mechanics has been his guiding light ever since. The journey took a severe turn when, at the age of 28, Cooley and his friend Pam Mitchell were hit by a car going 70 mph while they were walking along Commonwealth Avenue in Boston. Mitchell was killed instantly, and, though doctors and surgeons put Cooley back together, he was anything but healed.

s t o r y

The answer is found in Cooley’s studio just behind La Playa Azul Café on the northeast corner of El Presidio de Santa Bárbara State Historic Park, and it’s likely the most bizarre, interesting, deeply restorative thing I’ve ever encountered during my 37 years on this planet.

c o v e r

I

t’s late morning on a Thursday, and my legs are being ripped apart in a small, brilliantly sunlit building just off Santa Barbara Street. Seven people have their hands on me, pulling and pushing my body parts to and fro as an instructor encourages me to resist their efforts with all my might.

My hips and hamstrings scream with a blend of pain and pleasure; my torso, held against a wooden board by both hands and straps, writhes with conviction. As the dance of pulling and pushing and resisting deepens, a strangely hot and thick sweat builds from my insides out as my brain becomes acutely aware of the physical process of thinking. I feel something breaking inside of me — a good sort of break, accompanied by an oddly calming rush of fear and exhilaration that rises with each breath and torque of my limbs.

I’m at least five minutes past my comfort zone when the instructor tells everyone to stop and commands me to get up and “see how that feels.” As I rise from the mat, my surroundings fade away, and, for the first time in years, I stand effortlessly, without pain or cracking bones or popping joints.“I feel perfect,” I report with a giggle and stupid grin, “completely perfect.”

It’s been five months since I first met Bob Cooley, and in that time I’ve made more progress in a long and twisting road back to health than in my previous three years combined. As readers of this newspaper may recall, the fates dealt me a rather disappointing hand a few years back, with the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis and a rare form of pancreatic cancer—the headliners in a long list of wicked health fuckery.

The tremendous team of doctors and healers working on my behalf are the only reason I’m alive today, but I’m increasingly convinced that my work with Cooley— Cooley a blue-eyed, intense, rollerblading-addicted, song-and-dance-loving, profanity-inclined, and occasionally harsh 66-years-young mad scientist of kinesiology — is why I am living so surprisingly well.

I’ve not felt this sound in mind, body, soul, and spirit for at least half a decade, a notion that was reinforced on my most recent visit to see my Stanford-based doctors.“Wow, you look amazing,” said one of the oncologists immediately after I walked through the door.“What the heck have you been doing?”

This is our law school.

In time, with his outward wounds healed, Cooley once again seemed the model of health, running more than 100 miles a week and swimming every day, a regimen he hoped would renew his sense of well-being. He also intensified his studies of anatomy and physiology, contacting experts from around the world in hopes of better understanding the situation.

But with chronic pain worsening, a digestive system failing, and heart ailments continuing to plague his life, Cooley felt that he was dying on the inside. “The pain became unmanageable, and I just knew I was fucking dying,” recalled Cooley with palpable anger, explaining that the traditional physical therapy just didn’t work. “Eventually, I came to the conclusion that what I needed was to get flexible. I needed immediate and cumulative and lasting changes in my flexibility.”

And so Cooley started stretching with a borderline psychotic level of commitment. “I would do the same yoga pose for 12 hours a day, sometimes longer,” he said. “Almost immediately, I noticed specific effects on my body from specific stretches, so I kept going. I wanted desperately to come back to life, and I knew this was the way. I didn’t want to be dead inside anymore.”

During this monk-like phase, Cooley fine-tuned his methods and observations, eventually reaching out to a friend in California to share his findings.

When he explained to her that intense stretching of certain muscles was improving things like his digestion and bladder control, she told him about Chinese medicine’s concept of meridians.

Invisible networks that crisscross the body and are associated with specific organs, meridians serve as the road map for acupuncture. Needles placed along the correct meridian, for instance, can address imbalances in your liver.

Cooley had discovered that stretching the soft tissues along that same meridian would similarly benefit your liver.“I realized that maybe none of this was new,” he admitted,“but I was discovering it for myself, and I didn’t want to be distracted from my fucking path by preconceived notions. I hung up on her and got back to stretching.”

The next quantum leap was when Cooley, inspired by the stretching rituals of dogs and cats, added muscle tension to his stretches. “That is when things really started to take off,” he said.“I was getting very real and predictable results both physically and psychologically.” He started working with other people in his Boston studio. “I’d get 45 people in a room, have them all do the same stretch for an extended period of time, and then talk about what they were experiencing,” he explained. “The results were undeniable and very much predicted by my own experiences.”

RFST was born.

At the root of Bob Cooley’s work is fascia, a nerveless and dense connective tissue that permeates our entire body, surrounding organs and muscle groups from head to toe. As Cooley sees it — and he’s not alone in this view — fascia stores all of our traumas, both physical and emotional, and this buildup leads to denser tissue that eventually impacts our organs, our movements, and our overall health. As Cooley is fond of saying, “Everything you do is reflected in your fascia. Your whole life is in there.”

The problem is that extra-dense fascia, which cannot be detected by x-ray or MRI, doesn’t go away without intervention. So, in the same vein as rolphing or myofascial release techniques, RFST is designed to break up the excess fascia and free your body and mind from their burden.

“Most people think about flexibility as a range of motion,” said Cooley.

“But for us, it is all about the health of the tissue as you move through that range of motion.”

This is the essence of his work. By adding resistance to stretches — typically with trainers pushing or pulling your limbs as you move through various positions — RFST simultaneously lengthens and contracts a

People have always talked about a mind-body connection, — bob coolEY but, really, it is a body-mind connection.

muscle. This directly assaults your fascia, breaking it down, transfiguring what remains, and allowing for oxygen and fluids to flow into the tissue. When you consider this rejuvenation of fascia in concert with the Chinese medicine meridians it is occuring along, you can start to see how RFST offers such sweepingly holistic benefits.

But that’s only half the battle for Cooley. Starting with those stretching sessions in Boston two decades ago, Cooley slowly developed an underlying theory of human psychology that’s Jungian in nature, although probably too mystic for the mainstream.

“I would have people stretching in a pose that was along their small intestine meridian and suddenly the whole room would start to have similar personality traits,” said Cooley matter-of-factly. “I would change the pose to the liver meridian, and everyone would change accordingly to a new set of personality traits.”

The same happened when he did gallbladder pose, the kidney pose, the spleen pose, and so forth. “They would all use similar words and phrases to describe each individual experience,” he recalled. “People have always talked about a mind-body connection, but, really, it is a body-mind connection.”

Today, Cooley believes that there are 16 types of people in the world, each with a corresponding and defining organ. Each type comes with a predictable set of “high” and “low” personality traits that can be impacted with purposeful stretching, and each type has a unique and predictable relationship with the other 15 types. In practice, certain personalities trend toward specific physical and emotional issues, which can be addressed by focusing on the dense fascia along the meridians of the associated organs.

It’s holistic medicine on steroids, and a worldview that can color everything you do and every relationship you have.

Understandably, most aren’t willing to buy in at first blush, or at all. “I have no problem if someone

doesn’t believe in what I am doing,” said Cooley, whose defiant tone indicates he is no stranger to naysayers.

“This work isn’t based on belief. It is based on experience. Let me or some of my instructors stretch you out and tell me what fucking happens. Does it work or not? I have no interest in doing something that doesn’t work.”

Last fall, with no real publicity or fanfare, Bob Cooley opened his Santa Barbara studio in a recently redeveloped, sustainably designed building that features 360-degree natural light, a large kitchen, and a steady stream of group and private stretching sessions. But Cooley first came to Santa Barbara back in October 2012, thanks to one of our region’s most beloved yoga teachers, Eddie Ellner.

The man behind the cultish-ly popular yogalifestyle center Yoga Soup, Ellner discovered Cooley through a yoga-teaching friend in New York and soon traveled to Boston for a weekend to check it out himself. He wound up staying for two weeks. “There were things that happened in my body during that initial visit that were just, whaaaaat?!” remembered Ellner.

“I could tell immediately that this was the right, next direction. I still cannot believe how much help it has given and continues to give me.”

Ellner invited Cooley to Santa Barbara, and he began to come regularly with a halfdozen or so instructors to put on an intensive workshop at Yoga Soup as well as some private sessions. Ellner also started incorporating RFST into his classes. “I was doing it the wrong way back then,” said Ell-

Watershed Resource Center LOCATED AT 2981 CLIFF DRIVE, SANTA BARBARA, CA 93109 HEALING THYSELF: One of the pillars of Cooley’s work is getting instructors and instructors-in-training to prioritize their own health. In these images, certified affiliate intern Kat Connors-Longo gets stretched out by a team of colleagues, all with varying levels of expertise.

ner, “but even the wrong way was powerful.” Eventually, two advanced RFST instructors, Nick Ware and Luther Cowden, decided to stay and move into Ellner’s house. The migration was underway.

That’s when I first learned of Bob Cooley and his work. I was in the throes of illness, my body shutting down, and doctors struggling to properly diagnose let alone figure out a course of treatment for me. Friends and friends of friends were offering up all manner of suggestions, including advice to see Cooley. But before I could act on it, my health took a nosedive, leaving the scalpel my only immediate option. I forgot all about Cooley for about two years.

Then his center opened, and I was once again advised to seek him out.

My first visit was intense and, to be honest, off-putting. Cooley, who now splits his time between Boston and Santa Barbara, is as likely to be harsh in his assessment of people as he is supportive and pulls no punches in delivering his evaluation of you. Some, I am certain, wouldn’t hesitate calling him an asshole. There is a steep learning curve in getting to know the quirks of his personality. For example, after 15 minutes of stretching only my right arm, he told me in a practically condescending nature,“I know why you got sick.” Such declarations are outright offensive to folks in the Big C Club, and I am no exception.

But I bit my tongue, kept an open mind, and returned for a second session and then a third. I learned long ago that quick fixes are nothing more than marketing spin so kept working with Cooley and/or his instructors at least twice a week, and, by the end of the first month, things began to happen. My body tingled with a sense of liveliness I hadn’t felt in years. Neurological damage that had left numbed my lower left leg and foot and kept them a half step behind the rest of me began to improve. Hip pain that I’d long since resigned myself to living with began to abate. The good feelings lasted longer after each session. And others took notice, too, including my wife, friends, and coworkers, who started commenting on how healthy I looked. But I could barely slow down to listen — I was too busy enjoying my renewed self.

The biggest surprise was what was happening to my mind.

The anxiety and busy-brain syndrome that had plagued me See since childhood — and increased tenfold since my cancer —began to calm.

Text and photos by Caitlin Fitch “I love pushing the envelope of what glass can do, pulling off new ideas and really making them work,” said Tim Lindemann of the exceptionally intricate glass art that he creates at his studio near the airport. The recently married Santa Barbara native learned about glassblowing 18 years ago while earning his degree in biology at UC Santa Cruz.

“I just bought what I thought I needed,” he said, “and have been doing it ever since.” Specializing in chandeliers, decorative art inspired by the natural world, and, more recently, usable art, Lindemann shows his work at galleries and shops throughout the country. See lindemannglass.com.

Surviving

Fight Cancer with Confidence

D

iagnosed with breast cancer at age 41 in 2009, Santa Barbara interior designer/marketing consultant Andrea Hutton fought back and wrote about her experi-ence in the new book,Bald Bald Is Better with Earrings: A Survivor’s Guide to Getting Through Breast Cancer (Harper Wave, 224 pages), which she will sign at Antioch University (602 Anacapa St.) on Wednesday July 15, 5-7 p.m. Here’s an excerpt: Top Five Tips for Dealing with Your Self-Image

1) Don’t be embarrassed to seek emotional and psychological help. Dealing with your selfimage is a huge part of healing, and most cancer patients can get enormous benefits talking with people outside their inner circle. It takes a looooooong time to work through it all, and your friends and family can only understand so much.

They really want and need you to focus on your fight, your success, and your life, but you need to have time to process the rest. And it should take … well, as long as it takes.

2) There are many ways to find the help you need.

Try a support group if you’re a group person. In fact, try a support group even if you’re not a group person. And try another one if you don’t like the first one. There is no substitute for being with people who’ve gone through all this themselves.

Not even this book.

3) Find a therapist who specializes in cancer patients — your oncologist can recommend one—and go.

Your local American Cancer Society chapter may have one on staff. Going even once or twice might help you decide if you need more. It’s a very alien feeling to get up bald, newly thin or fat, or no eyelashes or eye eyebrows, put on a wig, then makeup, then a prosthetic breast breast—get it all together so you look a little bit like your former self —and then have people tell you how fabulous, or tired, or terrific, or exhausted you look. It can feel a little like being aclown in the circus. Of course it’s the most messed-up circus ever, not the sparkly and magicalCirque du Soleil kind. Sometimes you just have to slap on the clown makeup and costume and go out there.

4) Bald really is better with earrings. There’s something about adding a little femininity to a masculine picture. Seriously, flat chest, bald head—I started to look like my grandfather; though lovely, not a handsome man! So wear some jewelry.

5) Look at yourself. I’m serious. Try really hard not to shy away from mirrors, even if the reflection is more fun house than fun. Eventually you will see that it really is you in there, and that’s what others see, too. The real you doesn’t need hair or breasts to be beautiful. It’s still your eyes and your smile.

Sometimes it just takes practice to see it.

— Andrea Hutton

he yerba mate will steadily flow and cumbia music proudly bump this Saturday, July 11, at Plaza del Mar on Cabrillo Boulevard from 11 a.m.-6 p.m., when Santa Barbara celebrates its first ever Argentine Festival. Amid the empanadas, choripanes, chimichurri, and rhythmic music from ex-pat band Los Pinguos (pictured), attendees will also have a chance to win a trip to Buenos Aires as they raise money for Por los Chicos, a charity that helps Argentine families in need.

The event’s creator is Gustavo Dabos, who is from Mar de Plata, Argentina, and has lived in Santa Barbara for 15 years. The owner of Santa Barbara Painting Company, Dabos launched the nonprofit Criollos USA as an organization for those who are a mix between those of “European and native Argentinian descent.” He hopes the festival will foster an exchange of Argentine and American culture while satisfying the cravings of second-generation Argentinians who desire a sense of belonging.

The festival was inspired by the crowd of 260 people who gathered at Santa Barbara Brewing Company last summer when Argentina played in the World Cup. The cops had to be called because the room’s maximum capacity was overblown by about 100 people.

“The place was filled with twenty-something-year-olds who were all amazed to be part of a group like that,” explained Dabos, who hopes his fest will continue that buzz.

See criollosusa.org for details.

Beauty

Rub Wine on Your Skin?

I

t’s widely believed that a daily glass of red wine offers all sorts of health benefits, but a new company in town, Vine Vera, wants you to apply the good stuff directly to your skin. A skin-care line that claims to harness the age-defying properties of an antioxidant found in wine grapes called resveratrol, Vine Vera recently opened its first Santa Barbara outpost on the corner of State and Figueroa, where sales reps are steadily passing out samples.

Touting resveratrol as a miracle ingredient that “helps slow the aging process and retain a timeless youthful appearance,” each of the company’s eight skin-care collections targets a specific concern and is named after a different type of wine. For example, the Vine Vera Merlot collection provides deep hydration, the Moscato line is aimed at sensitive skin types, and the Chianti products are for recovery and revival.

The products are quite pricy, costing as much and even more than a bottle of world-class wine: $126 for a 1.69-fluid-ounce bottle of the Moscato cleanser, for instance, with creams and masks extending into the $300-$500 range. Entire collections start at $888 and run all the way up to $7,000 for the Cabernet Collection.

Now the only question you need to ponder is, would you rather drink your daily dose of resveratrol or dab it on before bedtime?

Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Semana Nautica Competitive Couple Ed Smith and Becky Glusac Tie the Knot, Keep Racing Together

H

Paul wellman Photos

by John Zant e once bumped against her foot and then swam

away from her in an ocean race. Trying to keep up with her on a trail run, he took a spill into the brush, and she ran two miles before noticing. But after years of teasing and one-upping each other, Ed Smith and Becky Glusac took a big step toward solidarity last August. They became Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

They share another title: Mr. and Mrs. Semana Nautica.

Since moving to Santa Barbara from his native Australia in 2003, Ed Smith has made a hobby of competing in the endurance events of the Semana Nautica Summer Sports Festival: the five-mile biathlon (four-mile run and one-mile swim); 15-kilometer run; and the one-mile, three-mile, and six-mile ocean swims.

“It’s a fight against the waistline,” said Smith, 39, an engineer at Raytheon. He confesses to a fondness for beer and lamented, “There are not enough athletic events to keep up with the different options for beer drinking.” Ocean swimming is an effective way to burn calories, and Ed has excelled at it; he has won the Semana Nautica six-miler three times in 13 years and finished out of the top five only once.

Becky Glusac Smith, 32, is a physician’s assistant at Alta Orthopaedics. A former UCSB swimmer, she is also devoted to physical fitness, and she would cross paths with her future husband at such events as the weekly Nite Moves swim and run. She found her bliss in running and this year achieved her goal of breaking an hour-and-a-half in the half-marathon, clocking 1:27:51 at the Wine Country Half Marathon in Santa Ynez.

Their mutual aspirations put Ed and Becky in many of the same Semana Nautica events every summer. One thing missing from Becky’s accomplishments was the six-mile swim, but in 2013, she did it, taking 22nd place, 30 minutes behind Ed’s second-place finish. Earlier, she beat him by more than three minutes in the 15K run. “I’m Becky’s water boy when we go on long runs,” Ed said.

After that summer, they took a trip to Catalina Island for Becky’s birthday. Ed’s gift was a mundane iPhone charger, but wrapped below it was an engagement ring. Becky jammed it on her finger before Ed had a chance to utter his proposal speech. He joked that she was like Gollum in The Lord of the Rings.

Six weeks before their wedding, Ed and Becky teamed up for the Semana Nautica six-mile swim. She was his escort on a paddleboard, providing him water and energy food and keeping him on course from Goleta Beach to Hendry’s Beach. “I had more desperation than usual,” Ed said. “I had

something to prove before getting married.” When he found himself in a tangle of kelp, Ed said he and Becky got into “a minor altercation.” Becky protested, “The kelp was so widespread you couldn’t avoid it.” Ed struggled through it and was the first swimmer to emerge from the surf. “I knew the wedding could go forward if we survived that,” Ed said.

Their wedding ceremony took place on a bluff at the City College campus, overlooking the Pacific Ocean that meant so much to both of them.

The July Fourth 15K last Saturday was the first Semana Nautica event that Ed and Becky did as husband and wife.

“I don’t feel like killing myself,” Becky said before the race.

As a result, Ed was able to run with her the whole way.

They finished 114th and 115th in the field of 224. Curly Guillen, a Goleta runner who is aiming for the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials, won the 9.3-mile race in a brisk 47 minutes, 50 seconds.

The next morning, they arrived at Goleta Beach, with Becky again assigned to escort Ed on the six-mile swim.

When he saw that the ocean was smooth as glass, Ed knew that it would not be his day. “He does his best when it’s cold and choppy,” Becky said. “Today it was, ‘It’s flat, dammit!’”

That didn’t mean it was going to be easy. “Six miles is six miles,” Ed said. “You’re pushed to the limit every time. At five miles, you wonder if you’ll make it. Not many people are crazy enough to do it.”

Alex Roderick, who at 17 had just met the minimum age to enter the long swim, was one of the crazy ones Sunday. “He’s really fast,” said Jane Cairns, 7/11: Paddling: Semana Nautica Kardboard Kayak Races Watch as teams of up to four display director of the annual race. “Ed their engineering skills, as well as athletic ability, as they assemble their kayaks with two sheets of never had to go against young cardboard and adhesive tape in one hour and then attempt to paddle them out to a buoy and back to kids.” the beach before they disintegrate.

your own pace,” he said. The lean-bodied Roderick did suffer from the cold water, but he stayed the course and led 41 others to the finish line in 2:07:16. Smith finished fourth in 2:13:06.

Ed still has the one-mile swim coming up Saturday and the three-miler Sunday, both at East Beach. There are also the weekly summer workouts provided by Nite Moves on Wednesdays and the Reef & Run Series on Thursdays.

Becky will be with him. His endless battle for a trim waistline and their shared joy in physical activity fits their idea n of happily ever after.

santa barbara gift baskets now selling handcrafted goods in old town goleta

PARTY TIME EXCELLENT: Get your groove on with drink deals found in the new Santa Barbara Passport.

W

ith five-ounce glasses before them, an intimate gathering of friends and strangers listened to a Telegraph Brewing Company representative’s lively but technical explanations of how their beers were brewed.

Sitting at tables propped up by giant wine barrels and surrounded by shelves of regionally made goods, the tasters focused on finding the subtle flavors they’d just discovered were imbued into the beer. With the late-afternoon sunlight streaming into the room, Telegraph’s Stock Porter took on an almost purplish hue.

The group of about two dozen beer and small-business enthusiasts — which included a bank CEO, a contingent from the Goleta Valley Chamber of Commerce, and a winery owner — chatted, sipped, and munched on nibbles from Georgia’s Smokehouse within the woodpaneled interior, which is reminiscent of an old, turn-of-the-century workshop. Within minutes, a visitor to Santa Barbara Gift Baskets’ (SBGB) new showroom (230 Magnolia Ave., Goleta; 689-7561; santabarbara giftbaskets.com) forgets that he or she is inside a former mechanic’s garage in the heart of Old Town Goleta.

“It’s important to hang on to the character and charm of the original neighborhoods,” said SBGB’s owner Anne Pazier, who, along with her husband, Todd Pazier, has been putting together gift baskets for Santa Barbara for about a decade. The Paziers’ new place, which will be celebrated with a ribbon cutting on Thursday, July 9, at 4 p.m., is an upgrade from the small Goleta warehouse where they ran their previously online-only business, and it’s just the latest creative, foodie-focused development that Old Town is enjoying amid a steady revitalization.

And then, just like that, she released her action-packed indie-rock album, How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful, polished with her charming, soulBeautiful ful voice. “Ship to Wreck” opens this album with personable and catchy lyrics and vibrant sounds, and as expected, the rest of the tracks are filled with feel-good, head-bobbing, toe-tapping songs — some slow, some fast. The deluxe album includes three bonus songs and two demos. I don’t know how, but Florence + The Machine has outdone itself again. —Ginny Chung

After the release of The Glitch Mob’s documentary, Behind the Blade, many awaited new tracks. This EP, containing just three songs —“Head Full of Shadows,” “Better Hide, Better Run,” and “The Clouds Breathe for You” — executes classic Glitch Mob with a twist. The tempos and balanced incorporation of rock, electro, and melody are stunning and exactly what the fans love. Unlike “Head Full of Shadows” and “Better Hide, Better Run,” which features Moving Castle’s sultry-voiced singer Mark Johns, the third track reveals a slower tempo and contains a more-graceful, less-thrashing melody. The wait is now over — this EP has proved The Glitch Mob’s successful take on a new, progressive world of electro and rock.

s the West Coast summer heats up, Santa Barbarans can cool down with a visit to see CA Cool, the current exhibit at Sullivan Goss, An American Gallery.

The Santa Barbara Independent has its very own Clark Kent in Ryan Mandell, who you may have seen moonlighting as a music journalist at the Funzone and SOhO. During free hours, however, Mandell is a music maker of his own as lead singer of Pookie, which headlines Thursday, July 9, at SOhO with Stacks and Givers & Takers. The headlining gig sees the band stepping out of its Isla Vista beginnings onto a bigger world stage, one with more responsibilities and fewer spontaneous practices and gigs. But the post-grad life hasn’t dampened the fierce drive of Pookie, a band growing professionally and unextinguished energetically.

Pookie started as a high school friendship between guitarist Chris Miehls and drummer Nick Fields, who battled the San Fernando Valley heat spells with equally fiery garage jams. “Those are the defining moments of our band,” Fields said of the band’s sweaty and loud garage-room origins. Though the two cycled through multiple lineups in their eight years playing together, they didn’t become Pookie until joined by fellow Valley man, bassist Zach Stafford, and Mandell, who took on vocal duties this year under an auspicious Aquarian new moon.

Their sound goes between aggressive rock — Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing in the Name” is a mosh-along set-closer — and the Californian skatepark mysticism and positivity of bands like Incubus.

“There’s no two of our originals that sound alike,” said Miehls. One standout is the song “Blowin’ It,” inspired by a particularly bad day for Stafford upon which he blew out his amp multiple times and injured himself while surfing. It’s a song to vent about and ease up on frustrations, about self-forgiveness when you only seem to be screwing up.

Now, frustrations are a little bigger in scope, with work crowding schedules, old fans graduating, and promoters demanding a higher level of industry professionalism. But the band is meeting the challenges of their new chapter, growing exponentially with each show. “We’re just trying to play, play, and play. Each gig forces us to do it right,” Mandell said.

LAST WEEKEND!

O

n the Verge is a company created to bring exciting theater to the summer doldrums between Solstice and Fiesta. Headed by Executive Artistic Director Kate Bergstrom, the company galvanizes area playwrights, performers, and designers to create shows that are attractive to a diverse audience demographic, especially the younger crowd. To that end, the On the Verge festival presents the work of young artists in a fresh, interactive capacity.

This summer’s festival provides a full schedule of productions in a variety of styles and locations. Monsters of Paris, a sensual play of love and self-respect set in the oppressive patriarchal state of pre-WWI Paris, will be performed as a staged reading.

Playwright Roxie Perkins offers a double feature of Caylee’s First Big Show!!! and Sweet Child. In Caylee’s First Big Show!!!, a singer/songwriter tells her story of identity crisis and heartbreak through a theatrical performance disguised as a pop concert. Sweet Child is a tale of survival in an impoverished urban area: Two abandoned teens walk the thin line between hope and desperation and learn to accept the reality of their family history.

Footprints at Laetoli is about paleoanthropologist Mary Leakey, who discovered the Laetoli footprints (fossils that present evidence of bipedalism in the evolutionary history of the human race). The play isn’t merely an excursion in archaeological storytelling; it’s also about Leakey’s personal evolution as she considers unresolved issues related to her late husband.

On the Verge will also present performances that exist outside the traditional theatrical structure,

including Lady-oke! and This Is Not a Love Song.

Lady-oke! configures the popular art of karaoke into a performance-art installation, elevating karaoke from an inebriated accident to a purposeful exhibition of the work of influential female artists like Madonna, Stevie Nicks, and Patti Smith. This Is Not a Love Song is an examination of romantic interaction, fetish, and selfpresentation in the current landscape of Internet dating.

In this fascinating production, an ethnographer’s thesis about Asian exoticism and dating websites comes to life (literally) when the subjects of the study appropriate the narrative and present their own stories.

True to its name, On the Verge aims to push performers, characters, and audience members to the verge of discovery. The festival, which runs July 16-25, features four world premieres, two Santa Barbara premieres, interactive art installations, and a workshop designed to offer interested parties the experience of working on various aspects of theatrical production. Performances will be held in alternative theater spaces, including The Narrative Loft, the Santa Barbara Historical Museum, and The 208 gallery. Be sure to check out all that the festival has to offer: It’s an exciting look into Santa Barbara’s community of diverse and gifted theatrical artists.

Fri Jul 24 6:00p

“annie” Gustafson Dance presents a family friendly, children’s version of the smash Broadway musical POP-PY STATE: State Street will be humming this week with music from California bands, including The Adolescents, Canned Heat (pictured), and Internet.

HOW THE WEST IS FUN: Studies have shown that the West Coast is the best coast. What other state in our union has been so emblematized in style, so immortalized in song? Until the San Andreas faults us for loving too much, we’ll keep it rocking. In the next few days, many acts arrive in town to remind us why California love has so endured.

First on the roster is the Thursday, July 9, Velvet Jones show by punk super group The Adolescents, founded way back in 1980 in Fullerton with members from Social Distortion and Agent Orange before breaking up and reuniting countless times since. Before pop punk came along and squeaky-cleaned the name of punk, The Adolescents were breathing musical hellfire with growling vocals and ripping guitar, influencing acts for decades to come. It’s raw, raucous stuff. In the words of one YouTube commenter on their debut: “This album makes me want to beat up my neighbor.”

They will be joined by The Weirdos, who have also reunited multiple times since their founding in the first-wave days of the Ramones and the New York Dolls. They put their own L.A. spin on punk and were certainly weirdos within their realm, dressing up in outlandish costumes and making jokes of the whole thing. In their kooky eccentricities and fun-loving flippancy, they were purely punk. Thursday’s gig will see these two bands of adolescents punking it up like olden times, decades be damned. What’s my age again? Well, what’s age but a number, anyways?

Also at Velvet Jones, Cali Agents, the duo of Rasco and Planet Asia, will play Friday, July 10, with Durag Dynasty, The Replacement Killers, Lyric Jones, and DJ True Justice. Cali Agents welcomed the millennium with their unexpected hit “The Good Life,” from their debut album How the West Was One, which still stands as one of underground hip-hop’s better-selling independent albums. Now they’re back to celebrate their album’s 15-year anniversary, with its beautifully restrained beats of twinkling piano and violin samples.

Traveling even further back in our musical time machine, we land in Woodstock ’69 to the Americana sounds of Los Angeles blues-rock band Canned Heat, who play at SOhO on Friday, July 10. With classic members Adolfo “Fito” de la Parra, Harvey “The Snake” Mandel, and Larry “The Mole” Taylor still onboard, this band is one of the very few to survive alongside our nation’s undying nostalgia for their era, though the group had some tragic casualties along the way. As enduring as the stars and stripes themselves, Canned Heat is back on the road again to continue burning the fire it helped set half a century ago.

Closing out the weekend comes some music from our very own 805, among the most lovable of California counties. Noisy young bloods The Trashberries and psychedelic post-punk group Internet will fire up the Funzone with Media Jewelers, out of Irvine. Considering that July 12 is apparently National Simplicity Day, can you think of a simpler route to fun on a Sunday night than some rocking in the batting cages?

On Monday we land in the 808 State, when SOhO will welcome ambassadors from that most tropical of places: The Rough Riders featuring Hawaiian music icons John Cruz, Brother Noland, and Henry Kapono. All award-winning legends in their own right, with multiple Grammys and Nā Hōkū Hanohano awards between them, the three have teamed up to spread the good word of Hawai‘i. Fans of Jack Johnson, take note: Cruz is a constant stage partner and friend to the surf-folk god, and Johnson fans will likely love The Rough Riders’ music. Charitable young stalwart and n Santa Barbara native Jason Paras will open.

The following films are playing in Santa Barbara FRIDAY, JULY 10, through THURSDAY, JULY 16. Descriptions followed by initials — AC (Aly Comingore), RD (Richie DeMaria), and DJP (D.J. Palladino) — have been taken from our critics’ reviews, which can be read in full at independent.com. The symbol O indicates the film is recommended.

Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem

FRI / JULY 10 / 8:30 PM SB COUNTY COURTHOUSE SUNKEN GARDEN FRIDAY NIGHT!

FIRST LOOKS Magic Mike XXL (115 mins.; R: strong sexual content, pervasive language, some nudity, and drug use)

In Magic Mike XXL, the characters are given more depth and are more demonstrative of their emotional sides, but the sequel misses much of the vivifying energy of the original, with only a handful of major dance numbers to perk up the thin plot. We follow them as they engage in various hijinks across the Southern states in a sequel that’s both more slapstick and sensitive than its predecessor but less interesting, too.

But rejoin the boys if you’d like to share a goofy and lighthearted road trip with them. (RD) Camino Real/Metro 4 Terminator Genisys (125 mins.; PG-13: intense sequences of sci-fi violence and gunplay throughout, partial nudity, and brief strong language)

Besides trotting out the old “I’ll be back” and “Come with me if you want to live” chestnuts, this film’s talk-y, explain-y, and boring-y chatter is so bad I wanted not to live though the first 10 minutes. If you watch this film in 3D with your ears plugged, it’s okay summer fare. (DJP) Arlington (2D)/Camino Real (2D) /Fiesta 5 (2D and 3D)

dismissed. (AC) Sat., July 11, 4:30pm, Matilija Auditorium, 703 El Paseo, Ojai

The Wizard of Oz (102 mins.; NR) In this classic 1939 film, Dorothy and her dog, Toto, are whisked away by a swirling tornado to the dazzling land of Oz. The Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion join her on her journey to the Emerald City and in battling the Wicked Witch of the West. Wed., July 15, 7:30pm, UCSB’s Isla Vista Theater and Fri., July 17, 8:30pm, Courthouse Sunken Gardens

He discovers three of the last surviving practitioners and helps them resurrect the music with performances and recording the first authentic harana album in half a century. The screening includes a Q&A with Executive Producer Fides Enriquez.

Friday, July 10, 7pm, Alhecama Theatre, 914 Santa Barbara St.

Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem (115 mins.; NR) In Israel, where civil marriage and civil divorce don’t exist, a woman spends three years trying to gain emancipation from her husband. This film is a powerful look at how, in a society and infrastructure built by men, a woman’s voice can go unheard, ignored, and outright

violence)

Another superhero in the Marvel arsenal is trotted out; this time it’s former conman Scott Lang, who is bestowed with the ability to shrink to ant size while increasing his strength.

Arlington (2D)/Camino Real (2D)/ Metro 4 (2D and 3D) (Opens Thu., July 16)

The Gallows (80 mins.; R: disturbing violent content and terror terror)

Twenty years ago, tragedy befell students during a high school play. When the current students decide to resurrect it in honor of the accident’s anniversary, bad things happen. Camino Real/Metro 4 Minions (91 mins.; PG: action and rude humor)

Minions Kevin, Stuart, and Bob join forces with evildoer Scarlet Overkill (Sandra Bullock) to help her take over the world.

Infinitely Polar Bear Self/less (116 mins.; PG-13: for sequences of violence, some sexuality, and language) A wealthy, dying man turns to a radical medical procedure to transfer his consciousness into a younger healthy man’s body. But all is not as it appears.

Paseo Nuevo

Trainwreck (125 mins.; R: for strong sexual content, nudity, language, and some drug use) Comedian Amy Schumer stars in this Judd Apatow–directed film about a magazine writer who thinks monogamy isn’t possible — until she meets a charming sports doctor who changes her mind.

Paseo Nuevo/Camino Real (Opens Thu., July 16)

NOW SHOWING I’ll See You in My Dreams (92 mins.; PG-13: sexual material, drug use, and brief strong language)

This comedy-drama tells the story of a widow (Blythe Danner) who begins her life anew. Costars include June Squibb, Rhea Perlman, Mary Kay Place, Sam Elliott, and Malin Akerman.

Plaza de Oro/Riviera

Infinitely Polar Bear (90 mins.; R: language)

Mark Ruffalo stars as a manic-depressive father who tries to win back his wife by taking full responsibility for raising their two young daughters. Plaza de Oro

O Inside Out

(94 mins.; PG: mild thematic elements and some action)

This film’s inner journey is a blast, especially the map of consciousness provided: A train of thought takes viewers from long-term memories, through the Unconscious, and down to a scary pit where memories go to die. We believe a silly premise and feel the war between regrets and happy days raging in a world of animated change. (DJP) Camino Real (2D)/Fiesta 5 (2D)

Jurassic World (124 mins.; PG-13: intense sequences of science-fiction violence and peril) Forget the giant box-office take and noisy buzz — there are plenty of thrills but no quantum leap in either the fearfactor or special-effects departments.

In the end, there is running, munching, and artillery and T. rex gets some awesome roar time. It isn’t brilliant. It’s vintage. (DJP) Camino Real (2D)/Metro 4 (2D)

O Love & Mercy

(120 mins.; PG-13: thematic elements, drug content, and language)

This is a sweetly over-baked biopic, melodramatic and full of beauty, meant to make us all feel guilty we ever mocked Brian Wilson. The film has great vibrations, and, besides, we know

there’s no line between madness and genius and only accomplishments matter in the long run. We ought to stop to admire Wilson’s. (DJP) Plaza de Oro Max (111 mins.; PG: action violence, peril, brief language, and some thematic elements)

It’s no Lassie Come Home or Old Yeller, but like most pet films, it plays fetch near the edge of mortality. The problem with Max is the hyper-military angle; this one shamelessly plugs the glory of animals fighting wars for us in the last five minutes of credits. Fairview/Metro 4

Come laugh it up with our Friday Comedy Club Series Hosted by Drew Thomas Featuring L.A.’s Top Stand-up Comics

O Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (105 mins.; PG-13: for sexual content, drug material, language, and some thematic elements)

This film is intricately crafted, often very funny, moving in its depiction of friendships and mortality, and all about the extreme love of movies, to boot — it’s Citizen Kane gone to the prom.

The Overnight (79 mins.; R: for strong sexuality, graphic nudity, language, and drug use)

The Overnight is more of an “Aren’t people weird?” comedy than laugh-out-loud funny. It banks a lot on the trends of our era’s young professional elite, with their Rhodes pianos, customized water-distillation techniques, and frank discussions about sexual liberation. Unless a night of marital discomfort and awkward sexploration sounds especially thrilling to you, there’s no need to invite yourself along. (RD) Plaza de Oro

O Spy (120 mins.; R: language throughout, violence, some sexual content including brief graphic nudity) Spy is the newest comedy for Melissa McCarthy to shine. It’s an outrageous ride filled with great characters, goofy gore, and more twists than any windy rue de Paris. If laughs are your mission, then see the hilarious and energizing Spy and consider the mission accomplished. (RD) Fairview/Fiesta 5 Ted 2 (115 mins.; R: crude and sexual content, pervasive language, and some drug use) The first movie was surprisingly funny and had at heart a legitimate conflict, but Ted 2 is just Seth MacFarlane’s now well-worn style of comedy. It’s annoying, as MacFarlane has already inseminated his Family Guy episodes with some of these exact same jokes about fertility clinics and big top-hat dance numbers. And since MacFarlane has made a career out of middle fingering just about everyone via his animated mouthpieces, I feel no problem raising mine in return.

CatCh the Wave NOWHERE MAN: Mathieu Kassovitz plays a creepy realtor who impersonates his tenants with homemade disguises in Nobody from Nowhere, just one of the many French films screening at SBIFF’s Wave Film Festival.

F

or 10 days each winter, State Street movie houses whir with the endless projection of fantastic film fare from around the world, thanks to the Santa Barbara International Film Festival (SBIFF). But a year is a long time to wait when you’re eager to binge-watch the best cinema has to offer. Thankfully, the folks at SBIFF are filling this viewing void with mini festivals called The Wave. For this next go, July 15-19, SBIFF is serving a tremendous lineup of French fare.

Culled from a field of 120 prospects, the 11 films selected include comedies, dramas, and thrillers that highlight “the creativity and magic of French storytelling,” said Mickey Duzdevich, The Wave festival director. “Each film shares a common theme of desire and the many things people will do to get what they want,” explained Duzdevich of the different genres’ common thread.“This strong slate appeals to many different tastes and is certainly not to be missed.”

Here’s the lineup:

Caprice: In this romantic

singer Vincent Lacroix’s biggest fan. One day, Lacroix turns up on her doorstep asking for a diabolical favor to which Muriel agrees. Soon, however, Vincent’s numberone fan is more than he bargained for in this enthralling, twisted comedy. July 15, 5pm; July 19, 7:30pm.

A Perfect Man (Un homme ideal): Plagiarism and black-

mail take center stage in this thriller about a writer, Mathieu, who finds a forgotten soldier’s diary and passes the story off as his own. After the book is published, his lies come back to haunt him. July 15, 7:30pm; July 18, 2pm.

CANCER

LIBRA

CAPRICORN

(Mar. 21 - Apr. 19): How can you fulfill your potential as an Aries? What strategies will help you become the best Aries you can possibly be? Now is an excellent time to meditate on these riddles. One of my Aries readers, Mickki Langston, has some stellar tips to inspire you: (1) One of your greatest assets is your relentless sense of purpose. Treasure it. Stay connected to it. Draw on it daily. (2) Love what you love with pure conviction because there is no escaping it. (3) Other people may believe in you, but only sometimes. That’s why you should unfailingly believe in yourself. (4) It’s your duty and your destiny to continually learn more about how to be a leader. (5) Don’t be confused by other people’s confusion. (6) Your best friend is the Fool, who will guide you to laughter and humility when you need it most, which is pretty much all of the time.

(June 21 - July 22): When novelist John Irving begins a new book, his first task is to write the last line of the last page. Then he writes the second-to-last line.

He continues to work backward for a while until he has a clear understanding of the way his story will end. Right now, Cancerian, as you hatch your next big phase of development, I invite you to borrow Irving’s approach. Visualize in detail the blossoms that will eventually come from the seeds you’re planting. Create a vivid picture of the life you will be living when your plans have fully ripened.

(Sept. 23 - Oct. 22): The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to acquire a new title. It’s quite possible that a person in authority will confer it upon you and that it will signify a raise in status, an increase in responsibility, or an expansion of your clout. If for some reason this upgrade doesn’t occur naturally, take matters into your own hands. Tell people to refer to you as “Your Excellency� or “Your Majesty.� Wear a name tag that says “Deputy Director of PuzzleSolving� or “Executive Vice-President of Fanatical Balance and Insane Poise.� For once in your life, it’s okay to risk becoming a legend in your own mind.

P.S. It wouldn’t be a bad time to demand a promotion — diplomatically, of course, in the Libran spirit.

(Dec. 22 - Jan. 19): “Who is it that can tell me who I am?� asks King Lear in the Shakespeare play named after him. It’s a painful moment. The old boy is confused and alarmed when he speaks those words.

But I’d like to borrow his question and transplant it into a very different context: your life right now. I think that you can engender inspirational results by making it an ongoing meditation. There are people in a good position to provide you with useful insights into who you are.

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20): While making a long trek through the desert on a camel, British author Somerset Maugham passed the time by reading Marcel Proust’s novel In Search of Lost Time. After finishing each page, Maugham ripped it out and cast it away. The book weighed less and less as his journey progressed.

I suggest that you consider a similar approach in the coming weeks, Taurus. As you weave your way toward your next destination, shed the accessories and attachments you don’t absolutely need. Keep lightening your load.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20): “I have gathered about me people who understand how to translate fear into possibility,� writes John Keene in his story “Acrobatique.� I’d love to see you do the same, Gemini. From an astrological perspective, now is a favorable time to put your worries and trepidations to work for you. You have an extraordinary capacity to use your doubt and dread to generate opportunities. Even if you go it alone, you can accomplish minor miracles, but why not dare to think even bigger? Team up with brave and resourceful allies who want to translate fear into possibility, too.

LEO (July 23 - Aug. 22): You have cosmic permission to lose your train of thought, forget about what was so seriously important, and be weirdly amused by interesting nonsense. If stress-addicts nag you to be more responsible, tell them that your astrologer has authorized you to ignore the pressing issues and wander off in the direction of nowhere in particular.

Does that sound like a good plan? It does to me. For now, it’s your sovereign right to be a wise and innocent explorer with nothing much to do but wonder and daydream and play around.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22): Even the most provocative meme cannot literally cause the Internet to collapse from overuse. It’s true that photos of Kim Kardashian’s oiled-up butt spawned a biblical flood of agitated responses on social media. So did the cover shot of Caitlyn Jenner in Vanity Fair and the YouTube video of a tiny hamster noshing tiny burritos and the seasonfive finale of the TV show Game of Thrones. But none of these starbursts unleashed so much traffic that the web was in danger of crashing. It’s too vast and robust for that to ever happen. Or is it? I’m wondering if Virgos’ current propensities for high adventure and rollicking melodrama could generate phenomena that would actually, not just metaphorically, break the Internet. To be safe, I suggest you enjoy yourself to the utmost, but not more than the utmost.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18): What’s hard but important for you to do? What are the challenging tasks you know you should undertake because they would improve your life? The coming days will be a favorable time to make headway on these labors. You will have more power than usual to move what has been nearly impossible to move. You may be surprised by your ability to change situations that have resisted and outfoxed you in the past. I’m not saying that any of this will be smooth and easy. But I bet you will be able to summon unprecedented amounts of willpower and perseverance.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21): Between now and July 22, your password and mantra and battle cry is “serendipity.� To make sure you are clear about its meaning, meditate on these definitions: a knack for uncovering surprising benefits by accident; a talent for stumbling upon timely help or useful resources without searching for them. Got that? Now I’ll provide clues that should help you get the most out of your lucky breaks and blessed twists: (1) Be curious and receptive, not lackadaisical and entitled. (2) Expect the unexpected. Vow to thrive on surprises. (3) Your desires are more likely to come true if you are unattached to them coming true. But you should formulate those desires clearly and precisely.

PISCES (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20): Franz Kafka produced three novels, a play, four short-fiction collections, and many other stories. And yet some of his fellow writers thought he was uncomfortable in expressing himself. Bertolt Brecht said Kafka seemed perpetually afraid, as if he were being monitored by the cops for illicit thoughts.

Milena JesenskĂĄ observed that Kafka often wrote like he was sitting naked in the midst of fully clothed people. Your assignment in the coming weeks is to shed such limitations and inhibitions from your own creative expression. What would you need to do to free your imagination? To get started, visualize five pleasurable scenarios in which you feel joyful, autonomous, generous, and expansive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21): On behalf of the Strange Angels in Charge of Uproarious Beauty and Tricky Truths, I am pleased to present you with the award for Most Catalytic Fun-Seeker and Intriguing Game-Changer of the Zodiac. What are your specific superpowers?

You’re capable of transforming rot into splendor. You have a knack for discovering secrets that have been hidden. I also suspect that your presence can generate magic laughter and activate higher expectations and wake everyone up to the interesting truths they’ve been ignoring.

Homework: What’s your secret beauty — the great thing about you that no one knows about?

DON PACO COMING TO MILPAS? Reader Liz says

that Don Paco’s Taco Truck will be opening a nonmobile restaurant somewhere on Milpas Street.

TOM’S BURGER COMING TO GOLETA: Readers

Mike and Diane tell me that there is a sign on an empty lot at the intersection of Turnpike Road and Calle Real that says, “Tom’s Burger and Mixed Use Development.” Rumor has it that a Starbucks might also go there.

DOWNTOWN PANERA BREAD CLOSES: This

just in from reader Dad: “Panera Bread at State and Ortega has a sign on the windows/doors saying that this location is permanently closed.” I called the 700 State Street eatery and confirmed that they’re gone.

Panera Bread opened in May 2013. I was also told that the upper State Street Panera Bread is still open.

CRUSHCAKES ON THE MOVE: Reader The

Shadow tells me that a sign on the window at Crushcakes (6533 Trigo Rd.) in Isla Vista indicates that the business is moving next month to a new location on Hollister Avenue.

RUMOR MACHINE: From my vantage point up

here in the South Coast food-news control tower,

I can see many things off in the distance, though summer fog frequently obscures the view. One fuzzy object appearing in my gastronoculars is a rumor that Cajun Kitchen is considering opening at 5677 Calle Real in Goleta, the former home of Denny’s.

As always, this rumor might be completely false or a brilliant forecast of future events. Your call.

NEW CHEF AT BACARA: Vincent Lesage is the new

executive chef at Bacara Resort & Spa. Though just 30 years old, Lesage has a career that already includes three-star Michelin restaurants in Paris as well as experience at luxurious hotels. Born and raised in Paris at the center of the food universe, Lesage was surrounded by the rich flavors and techniques that define French gastronomy, but it was actually art that inspired him to become a chef. An avid art lover, he spent NEW CHEF: Vincent Leshis spare time at the age is the Bacara’s new executive chef.

Louvre, studying the beautiful paintings and color palettes that would later influence his artistic presentations.

After graduating from the Institut Paul Bocuse in Écully, France, Lesage trained at The Ritz Paris as well as L’Astrance and Bras, both three-star winners.

Most recently, he was executive chef of Balboa Bay Resort in Newport Beach, where he opened two of the city’s only waterfront restaurants, Waterline and A&O Kitchen + Bar. Prior to that, he was executive sous chef at St. Regis Monarch Beach, managing a culinary team of more than 60.

At Bacara, Lesage oversees the resort’s six dining experiences, including a new signature restaurant opening spring 2016.“I approach every outlet as its own distinct concept,” explained Lesage. “From a healthy breakfast at Spa Café to a casual family meal at The Bistro, each experience is unique, and each experience is exceptional.”

Very few whiskeys can claim to be GMO‑free, given the altered state of corn in the United States.

And even fewer can claim to be finished in ruby port barrels. But Angel’s Envy, the new liquor from Lincoln Henderson, former head distiller at Brown‑ Forman, lives up to both those claims.

The result is a bourbon that’s light on its feet (86.6 proof) yet still deep in flavor, full of vanilla and roasted nuttiness that lingers well on the finish. And while the name is a play on the “angel’s share” — what evaporates during barrel‑aging — no doubt even angels would thirst for this complex, hand‑blended delight.
