Titles: Photography Intern; Digital Intern How was photographing the Santa Barbara International Film Festival? Fun? Scary? JK: Pretty surreal. I had never shot on a red carpet before, so I was nervous at first, but everyone was so welcoming. I was most intimidated by all the expensive equipment I was constantly surrounded by (because I don’t own any of that), but I learned that you don’t necessarily need it. As long as you have an eye for anticipating the perfect shot or the ability to be creative with what you have, then you’re golden. What do you want to do when you graduate? HK: I hope I’ll be able to have my own photography business and freelance somewhat, but I’d also like to shoot photos or videos for some type of media outlet. I’d also love to have a job that allowed me to travel and continue taking pictures.

Knowing what you know now about school and life and whatnot, what advice would you give your younger self? JK: Don’t be so scared, sit up straight, and cool it with those late-night mozzarella sticks. HK: I would tell myself to be patient, and that things really do turn out for the best. When people say that rejection is a chance for better opportunities to come along, they’re definitely right.

Hundreds Remember Chris Brown

urfers, fishers, and extended family and friends arrived by the hundreds to a paddle out (pictured) on February 16 from the Santa Barbara Harbor sandspit to celebrate the life of Chris Brown, 48, who drowned on January 19 on the rocky shoreline near Hendry’s Beach after accidentally falling from the bluff at Douglas Family Preserve. A commercial fisherman

and former professional surfer who competed at the highest level worldwide, Brown—known as a humble guy with a big smile — was praised for his endearing aloha spirit and the way he treated everybody like a best friend. His family scattered his ashes amid a wide circle of surfers and flowers. That morning before the paddle out, a standing-room-only crowd packed

Objecting to the Subjective

Calvary Chapel Santa Barbara as Brown was eulogized by family and friends, including 11-time world champion surfer Kelly Slater, who remembered staying with the Brown family during contest trips to California. Brown eventually turned away from the competitive spotlight to pursue big-wave riding while working as a commercial urchin diver. —Keith Hamm

HOUSING

by Nick Welsh fter working the levers at City Hall for more than 50 years, Sheila Lodge doesn’t appear to have lost her edge. “‘Objective design standards’?” she asked, her voice straining with theatrical incredulity. “That sounds like an oxymoron to me.” Lodge started off her political career on the city’s Planning Commission in the 1970s; then she was elected to council; then she served eight years as mayor. Now she’s a planning commissioner again. Through it all, Lodge has remained an unrepentant, old-school slow-growther, outspokenly bird-dogging big development to maintain Santa Barbara’s small-town quality of life. To that end, Lodge has routinely availed herself of such vaguely defined design criteria as “neighborhood compatibility” to bludgeon projects she’s deemed too big for their britches into a more neighborly size. That’s been the Santa Barbara way—not coincidentally—for about 50 years.

Regional Control in Crosshairs in State Housing Crisis

Planning Commissioner Sheila Lodge

Now, no more. For the past three years, the State Legislature has passed bill after bill to take discretionary approval authority away from local governments when it comes to housing projects. With the state facing an estimated housing shortfall of two million units, the Legislature concluded that what was once merely a “critical” problem has escalated into a full blown “crisis.” As a result, economic opportunities have been stifled, according to the preamble of one such bill, “worsening poverty and homelessness and undermining the state’s environmental and climate objectives.” In that context, local control has become a luxury Sacramento has decided the state can ill afford. The state Department of Housing and Community Development recently sued the City of Huntington Beach for adopting a zoning change that effectively reduces the number of housing units that can be built. Huntington Beach, it should be noted, has sued back. This

NEWS BRIEFS COUNTY Lisa Plowman, who served with Santa Barbara County Planning and Development from 1994 to 2005, has returned to the department as its new director. Her appointment, however, was not without reservation. Dissenting in the 3-2 vote, supervisors Steve Lavagnino and Peter Adam, who want the department more streamlined and resident friendly, were concerned in part that Plowman doesn’t represent much-needed change. She has nearly 20 years’ experience assisting private and nonprofit developers with entitlement and planning processes. For the past five years, Plowman has worked in management at RRM Design Group, a firm with more than 130 employees and four California offices. She starts with the county in March. Unhealthy levels of bacteria were found at several beaches in Santa Barbara County as of 2/11, notably Carpinteria’s city beach and Santa Barbara’s East and Arroyo Burro beaches. Warnings have been posted, mostly due to levels higher than state standards for intestinal flora of unknown animal origin, which is a usual occurrence after winter rains scour the landscape. Simultaneously, the county has been moving mud and rock from front-country debris basins to Carpinteria and Goleta, though officials are quick to point out that the organic matter in the basins had no opportunity to emanate from urban areas and are tested before being trucked to the beach. The ball is back in play regarding Camp 4 and whether it will become part of the Chumash reservation. After buying the 1,400-acre property from Fess Parker’s estate in 2010, the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians has been trying since 2013 to make it part of the existing reservation. The Bureau of Indian Affairs approved the property transfer in 2014, but Barry Cappello, attorney for plaintiff Nancy Crawford-Hall, made the case that the Interior Department official who signed the final decision in 2017 had no authority to do so. According to the Central District Court ruling, the issues raised on the environmental review are now premature. Tribal Chair Kenneth Kahn termed the ruling “unfortunate,” asserting, “The tribe will continue to fight to ensure adequate housing for its members.” Caltrans workers have dug down 40 feet to the blocked culvert that keeps State Route 154 closed at Lake Cachuma. The state highway agency now estimates the road will remain closed until mid-March. CalPortland Construction of Santa Maria has been hired to make the repairs, at a cost of $2.2 million, which involves reconstructing the foundation below the culvert, repairing the embankment, and excavating and repairing part of the damaged highway. Fourth District Supervisor Peter Adam will not run for a third four-year term next year and has announced his support of Bob Nelson, 39, who now serves as Adam’s chief of staff. Nelson announced his candidacy on 2/16 at an event at

of local governments to reject or reduce the size of multi-unit housing proposals. In addition, the Legislature is accelerating the speed with which design review boards must process such applications. Key among the reforms is a proposal requiring “objective design review” standards. No longer will it be legally defensible for bodies like the Architectural Board of Review to scale back certain proposals on the grounds of “neighborhood incompatibility” or excessive “size, bulk, and scale”—for years boilerplate verbiage in local land-use battles. Instead, such judgments must be couched in objective and quantifiable descriptions. “If we don’t have objective standards, we don’t have anything,” stated assistant city attorney Tava Ostrenger. Lodge, who has been waging a lonely battle against increased housing densities for the past 10 years—they fail to generate affordable housing, she says, and often look ugly — said the legislative changes are huge. “They’re taking away local governments’ ability to do their own planning,” she said. The nitty-gritty of the bills in question goes deep. Local governments are barred from restricting the size of any proposed developments in which the developer is willing to set aside 10 percent of the units built to tenants making 80 percent — or less — of the area median income and is also willing to pay prevailing wages. Such developments would be required to provide only one parking space per unit. If located within half a mile of a bus stop, no parking would be required. Governments that seek to whittle down the number of units of such proposals can be fined up to $10,000 per unit. If malice can be demonstrated, the fines can be as high as $50,000 per unit. In addition, developers can recoup attorneys’ fees. Judges have been empowered — for the first time — to make basic land-use decisions. In the past, they were only

authorized to order cities to correct such decisions that failed to pass legal muster. Applications must be processed faster. Proposals of 150 units or fewer must be processed within 90 days; those larger have 180 days. Every city and county in the state must submit detailed eight-year zoning plans demonstrating how they can accommodate their fair share of California’s staggering housing demand. Nearly 340 of California’s local governments are falling seriously short of attainment; only 14 are actually meeting these goals. Santa Barbara is not one of the 14. Of the 4,099 housing units the City of Santa Barbara has sought to accommodate in its latest housing plan, only 16 percent — 667 units — have been permitted. Planning Commissioner Mike Jordan terms the city’s performance “terrible.” He predicted the new laws will impose “a radical change” in how land-use business is conducted. As is often the case, Jordan appears to be of two minds about the new legislative regime. He cited a recent case of a four-story rental housing proposal slated for the 700 block of North Milpas Street. The developer initially sailed through the Architectural Board of Review (ABR) with glowing endorsements and an allbut-unanimous preliminary approval. But when it came time for the final approval, the project had generated considerable neighborhood opposition—it was too big, out of scale, out of character. The same ABR found the same project was inconsistent with the neighborhood character. Next month, the project goes to the City Council on appeal. Detty Peikert, architect for the developer, says the case highlights the need for “objective” design review guidelines. His client spent $800,000 on architectural and engineering plans after getting preliminary approval; the project, he insisted, didn’t change. Businesses need a more predictable and reliable review process, he argued. Peikert’s client won’t be saved by those state bills. His proposal was submitted before they were passed, and besides, he’s not offering to set aside 10 percent of the proposed units — 75 — to tenants composing the mythical “missing middle,” much talked about by urban planners. Planning Commissioner Lodge said that requirement, coupled with the bill’s prevailing wage mandate, is enough to discourage many developers from taking full advantage of the legislation’s advantages. “I don’t think we’re going to see a rush to the well,” she said. Jordan sees it differently. The housing crisis is real, he argued, and the same legislators who’ve stripped away much local control from city and county governments are not going away. “You don’t think they’ll be coming back?” he asked. In the meantime, City Hall has created a task force to rewrite its design review guidelines, replacing subjective descriptions with objective descriptors. They’ll be meeting twice a week for the next three months; the issue is that serious. n

Pini Forks Over $1.6 Million Ruling Sets Repairs in Motion After 10 Months of Stalemate Dario Pini

by Jean Yamamura ollowing a long, intense court hearing, landlord Dario Pini took a $1.6 million step toward fixing close to 2,000 code violations at eight of his Santa Barbara properties. Since a receiver was appointed in April 2018 for Building Code and Health & Safety Code violations, the intervening 10 months have been spent finding contractors and arguing on paper and in court, with one filing accusing the receiver of taking Pini’s stuff. Judge Colleen Sterne put her foot down in early February, ordering the payment of the most substantial funding to date on the issue at hand: substandard housing conditions at Pini’s properties. The receiver, William Hoffman of San Diego, and his management company, Trigild, had fixed by last fall about 400 violations using the rents they’d collected in Pini’s stead, but the large-scale work that can put walls back, correct wiring and plumbing, and repair rotted beams and joists require real capital. The $1.6 million kick-starts the permits and planning for Pini’s Mission Street and Arrellaga Street properties, as well as the rehousing of tenants if necessary. The apartments that remain to be fumigated for vermin should now be able to be tented, funds that had been ordered paid in September. A few tenants have refused to pay the new landlord or to allow Hoffman’s managers into their apartments to inspect for mold or code violations, adding to the delays. Among the 75 total units, 21 tenants have been served with quit notices, most for nonpayment of rent, and 13 units sit vacant, according to Hoffman’s latest report to the court. Santa Barbara law firm Cohn Rengo was hired to handle the evictions. One family evicted for the unhealthy mold in their apartment at Pini’s San Pascual Street property is entitled to relocation assistance under California’s Health & Safety Code, but Hoffman’s report for December 2018 estimated the rental compensation to be $4. Assistant City Attorney John Doimas explained the amount had to do with prevailing rents and how much the tenants paid. Their costs of moving could be reimbursable, he said, which might be discussed at the next hearing on March 8; it was up to the receiver. (Bill Hoffman did not reply to requests for information.)

Hoffman has stated the San Pascual property is broke, too broke to even afford the eviction attorneys’ fees. Pini’s attorney attributed this financial predicament to the high receiver fees, but Hoffman’s attorney Fernando Landa stated in January they had yet to take their fee for that property, the gardeners had quit, and only utilities were current. The family, caught in the middle, has yet to receive their deposit back, said family friend Ana Bello, though they’d reached out to Trigild to return their keys. The property on San Pascual has a large, old Victorian in the front and two other buildings, amounting to 10 units, four of

It’s been the subject of a demolition proposal, more recently tapered to just the two properties in the rear. The receiver’s best bid on the original demo plan, from Pueblo Construction, was $218,000; Pini countered with one for $39,000 from Gamble Construction. Pini tried to replace the receiver with Eddie Taylor of the Northern Santa Barbara County United Way, a motion denied by Judge Sterne for the moment; Taylor had been interested in turning San Pascual into homeless housing. Pini then aimed to force Hoffman to rent empty apartments, saying too much income was lost through vacancies. Judge Sterne denied again, saying that moving in a tenant who will have to move out for repairs made little sense. She also made it clear that any rentable units were to be rented. Along with financing details, an issue likely to come up at the March hearing is the difference between junk and valuable stuff. That one concerns lengths of Victorian crown molding made of red oak Pini had acquired at an estate sale—his papers state they had sentimental value — and stored at his Carrillo Street property until the receiver cleaned up the garages. n INDEPENDENT.COM

ormer San Marcos High School principal Ed Behrens was not granted access to the memo that aided members of the Santa Barbara Unified School District School Board in their decision to demote him. However, the courts did find the Statement of Reasons given to Behrens by Superintendent Cary Matsuoka to be incomplete. Behrens was demoted from San Marcos principal to Santa Barbara Junior High social studies teacher in March. Behrens is challenging the decision and suing the district for reinstatement and punitive damages. Behrens alleged that the memo presented to school boardmembers contained information that was not in his personnel file. Behrens has access to the more than 200page personnel file. The memo was authored by attorneys Craig Price and Joseph Sholder for Matsuoka. It was intended to summarize the finding of his file and was presented to the school board. On February 7, after reviewing the memo in private, the court found that “[t]he Memo purports to contain only information that was available to Plaintiff from his personnel file. It does not appear to the Court to contain any information that would have been difficult for Plaintiff to ascertain as a fact relied upon by the Board.”

Ed Behrens

However, the courts found that the Statement of Reason provided to Behrens, which lists nine specific examples of his job performance on which the demotion was based, is incomplete. “There is also an issue of the completeness of the response in its reference to the personnel file and by its statement of a list with the qualifications. The interrogatory requests a complete statement of employment job performance that played a role in the employment action,” wrote the court. The district must complete the response by including a full list of the job-performance issues the boardmembers relied on to make their demotion vote. —Blanca Garcia

he Santa Barbara City College Board of Trustees meeting on February 14 ended in disarray, not unlike several of its most recent meetings. At this meeting, the board was considering a resolution to add the Pledge of Allegiance to board agendas. Around 250 people sat or stood in the audience. Two deputy sheriffs and campus security members were present. Just over 40 people spoke, most of whom were community members and not current students. They emphasized the importance of patriotism, quoted Martin Luther King Jr., and mentioned phrases from the pledge, particularly, “indivisible with liberty and justice for all.” One man said he understood people’s reluctance to recite the pledge but said, “We need not destroy the [pledge], only live up to it.” Several others speakers called for the resignation or firing of President Robert Miller, and others requested that boardmembers who refused to say the pledge should resign.

Are We Out of the Drought? ecent rains have Lake Cachuma almost 60 percent full, the highest since 2011. Even so, water managers caution that it’s premature to celebrate the end of one of the worst droughts in Santa Barbara history. Technically, the drought is only over if and when Lake Cachuma—which supplies about half the water needs for South Coast water agencies—spills. The lake’s water level is now at the 723-foot mark; to spill it must exceed 753. While water managers are now thinking about relaxing certain drought emergency conservation goals, no actual plans have been proposed.

Tension between water districts and the County Water Agency — which holds the contract for Lake Cachuma with the Bureau of Reclamation—are already plenty tense and can be expected to get even tenser. That contract is about to expire, and the water districts that rely on Cachuma are eager to take it over from the County Water Agency, which they acerbically note has no water and no customers. Water Agency officials had hoped in the past to use the new contract to impose tighter new restrictions on water consumption based on new water supply realities born of climate change and the prospect of prolonged droughts in the future. —Nick Welsh

Opinions CRISIS JUNKIES:

angry poodle barbecue

Donald Trump is hardly the first president to flamenco dance all over the Constitution in response to a self-conjured threat for which exceptional emergency powers must be invoked. But in selecting the wall and imaginary armies of immigrant hordes, he proves yet again why we can’t have amateurs in the White House. Why pick a fight that can’t be won when there are so many others that can be? A case in point: the opioid crisis. By any reckoning, it’s real. With the death toll from the last 20 years now hovering around 400,000, we are poised to soon surpass the number of Americans killed during World War II. That’s nearly five times more than in Vietnam. Or more immediately, more than 130 World Trade Centers. If another country did to us what companies like Purdue, the sublimely cynical manufacturers of OxyContin, have, we would have bombed them back into the Stone Age. Trump, by the way, campaigned on the opioid crisis. In some ways, it’s his base. A recent medical journal report confirms that the demographics of opioid death and destruction skews heavily white, heavily male. For those still wondering, “Why Trump?”, it’s worth remembering that he performed best in districts boasting the highest rates of opioid overdose. I mention this not to ride some imaginary hobbyhorse around the block. My point is this: If Santa Barbara County Counsel Mike

Dog Whistle Blues

Ghizzoni has figured this out, then perhaps it’s time for Donald Trump to learn a thing or two about a thing or two. Last week, Ghizzoni and the County of Santa Barbara filed a

lawsuit against Purdue and about 12 other companies in the business of opioid-related

death and destruction. A few points need to be conceded up front. This is clearly a case of political grandstanding. If it’s also a case of ambulance chasing as some have suggested — maybe a more appropriate comparison would involve a hearse —we’re clearly in the back of the pack. At least 1,500 other cities, counties, and states have already sued the pharmaceutical companies most responsible for unleashing the opioid scourge. My response to all this? About time. What took you so long? No, Santa Barbara is not eastern Ohio or West Virginia, but we all know by first name heroin addicts who started out on painkillers. They can be found in the best of fam-

ilies. There are, of course, the 11 people who died of overdoses from drugs prescribed by Dr. Julio Diaz, a k a the Candy Man, now serving a life sentence. In the wake of the Diaz scandal, state regulators went after some of the pharmacies that turned a blind eye to Diaz’s trigger-happy script writing. Mom-and-pop operations, I am told, felt the retributive brunt a lot harder than the Big Boys, like CVS, who, I am likewise told, were equally complicit.

Between 2012 and 2016, 120 Santa Barbara County residents died of accidental opioid overdoses. Not all those involved

prescription drugs. About half of all opiate deaths involve so-called licit drugs, the other half being illicit in origin. In 2015, it’s worth knowing, Santa Barbarans were dying of opioid overdoses at twice the statewide average. In that year alone, overdoses claimed the lives of 63 people. Those numbers have climbed down since then, but they’re still too high. Since 2015, more than 400 overdose victims have been brought back to life, courtesy of the wonder drug Naloxone, which Santa Barbara county authorities were initially a little slow to embrace. Since then, about 1,500 kits have been distributed. The county’s lawsuit makes for weirdly horrific reading. Who knew that Purdue started out manufacturing a substance used to extrude earwax? In 1952, Purdue was purchased by Arthur Sackler, who emerges as the evil genius driving this disaster. Back in the ’50s, Sackler was a practicing psychiatrist. He also owned an advertising agency. Since the 1960s, he’s been strip-mining America’s psychic — and also physical — pain, and today the Sackler family is worth

about $13 billion. Sackler made his first fortune advertising a wonder drug called Valium back in the ’60s. As a psychiatrist, he emerged as the expert on “psychic ten-

sion,” an affliction that somehow seemed

to plague women disproportionately. As an advertising guru, he directed the marketing campaign—again targeting women— for Valium, which became the first drug to break the $100 million barrier. By the ’90s, Sackler was trying to expand the branding possibilities for OxyContin—one of many synthetic opiates now wreaking havoc. Purdue spent more than $400 million on marketing since 2001; clearly it paid off. The company’s sales staff ballooned from 300 to 700; doctors were targeted and in some cases outright bribed with all the usual highminded honoraria and gifts. The drug was not addicting, the doctors were repeatedly told, if administered to people experiencing pain. It was a lie, and Purdue knew it. But with competition from Fentanyl looming —50 times stronger than heroin and up to 100 times stronger than morphine—Purdue couldn’t afford to let 50 million Americans suffer in needless pain. The consequences will be with us for eons to come. The first rule of politics? Never let a good crisis go to waste. Trump has at his disposal a fabulous crisis. It’s real. It allows him to pander to his base. He might do some actual good. To date, however, the federal government has yet to sign onto litigation like the one initiated last week by Santa Barbara County. — Nick Welsh

Leslie Ann (Boyd) Mann 1950-2019

Our beloved Leslie Ann (Boyd) Mann -wife, mother, grandmother, stepmom, sister, and friend to so many- passed away at 8 PM on Monday, January 28th, 2019. Family and friends were at home with her as she let go of the life she shared with husband Brian, daughter Leyla Johnson, sons Josh and Gabe Mann, son-in-law Evald Johnson, and beloved granddaughters Amelia and Ruby, sister Laurel Austin, brother-in-law Durban Lenocker, and so many dear and loved friends, cousins, nieces, nephews, grand- nieces and grandnephews. Also, through marriage, her sister Lori Erenberg, brothers Robert and Jonathan Mann, Steve Snyder, and mother Cheri Mann. In the last years of her battle with cancer, Leslie was supported and buoyed by many friends. Especially the Nagelmann family, Dr. Jim Thomas, Peggy Jo Love, Joyce Jerge, David Rockey, Bonnie and Roger Rungavac, Leslie’s book club members, Maxine Avila, Consuello Benavidez, our many wonderful and loving neighbors, and the kind people at The Ridley Tree Cancer Center, Visiting Nurses and Hospice. During the last few difficult weeks, Robert and Steve, Josh, Gabe and Leyla stepped up and took over much of the hour-tohour care and are a testament to the love and devotion Leslie inspired in all who knew her. Born and raised in a large, warm and extensive family in the small ranching town of Selma, CA, Leslie felt loved and accepted. With her aunts, uncles and grandparents all nearby, she felt secure and safe, enabling her to develop a quiet and healthy level of true self-confidence along with a steady, kind, tolerant way of being. And in her Grandpa Baba’s cotton fields and vineyards, she learned how to work. Her cousins and siblings were her best friends; with them, she developed a tremendous sense of humor, an appetite for simple pleasures, and the value of friendship. After attending Cal Poly, she transferred to UCSB with her surfer boyfriend in 1971. At first bored with the sleepy beach town of Santa Barbara, she quickly 16

made friends working at Sees Candy then, at Diane’s with new friend, Sandy Resnick. Merle Clark, who famously could be seen walking along the boardwalk on his hands, soon swept Leslie off her feet, into a VW Van and the Mountain Road lifestyle, and soon baby Leyla was born. A couple years later, Merle’s wild man lifestyle was too much for young mother Leslie; facing the question of how to support herself and her daughter, she decided to go to Tom Hanson’s beauty school. There she met fellow student and life long friend, redheaded Peggy Jo Love. After beauty school, and for forty years hence, Leslie, with business partner and friend Peggy Jo, welcomed customers to their hair salon, Head West. There, along with beautiful haircuts and color, they offered an open hearted and non-judgmental ear, a ready laugh, advice on everything from restaurants and movies, to marriage, family, and life in general. In 1990 Leslie met her (hmm hmm, with apologies) 3rd and best husband, Brian, when both were separated from former spouses. They adopted the saying “It’s never too late to have a happy life” as their motto, and married in 1992. Bringing together Leslie’s daughter, Leyla, and Brian’s sons, Josh and Gabe, they formed a new family and proceeded to prove that motto accurate. Soon after that, tragically, Leslie lost her brother Ted to Melanoma, then a short time later, her older sister, Lynne to ALS. Then in 2007, an x-ray revealed a tumor in Leslie’s right breast, undetected for so long it was large (stage 3). Always with the brilliant and kind guidance of Dr. Tom Woliver, Leslie endured surgeries, chemo, radiation and some crazy new drugs. Though losing her beautiful hair, she was given the ‘all clear’ a year later. Remission. For now. Leyla and Evald soon brought Leslie’s first grand daughter, Amelia into the world and into her life. With much to live for, Leslie got active, and with her devoted friend and long time walking partner, Dee Nagelmann, started training, walking 5 to 8 miles several times a week. After completing the Barbara Ireland Walk, they went on to complete the Avon Breast Cancer walk in Santa Barbara (2010), then in New York City (2011). 26 miles day one…13 miles day two…and although Leslie lost a big toenail, and after a few wrong turns, they finished in the top groups and helped raise money for research and treatment. Soon grand baby Ruby was born, and a new and wonderful chapter began.

FEBRUARY 21, 2019

All through their deep, loving and devoted marriage, Leslie steadfastly supported husband Brian’s music career through its many ups and downs. Never complaining if money was tight, or the hours were late (or if the singer was a little too pretty and young). She always had faith in Brian. Brian will appreciate that and the many other things that Leslie gave him as long as he lives. Most of all he appreciates the gift of his granddaughters and daughter, the beautiful home and cottage they shared, their life in Santa Barbara with their many devoted friends, the way she loved and accepted Brian’s sons and whole family, and the feeling of being deeply loved and fully accepted for who he is. A lot of people are grateful for receiving some of those same gifts from Leslie. A memorial is being planned in Santa Barbara for mid to late March. And another in Selma, CA a bit later.

groups throughout the years, including the Opera Workshop, Santa Barbara Choral Society, and the Hollybush Singers. Identifiable to many in the community by the white beard he sported, John enjoyed hiking and bicycling until he was well into his 80’s, and continued his leisurely walks around the neighborhood in his later years. John frequently stated that the best decision in his life was “retiring” at age 51 to become his family’s chief cook and bottle washer as well as primary volunteer for his younger family’s school and extracurricular activities. He loved his life, and he loved Santa Barbara--the place where he sang, hiked, biked, sat and watched the trees grow. John is survived by his wife, Carolyn; sons Mikael (Cheryl) and Steven (Sarah), stepdaughter Christina (Scott) Bowman, daughter Laurel (Seth Baker), grandson Matthew Bowman, sister Lois Roberts, nephew Russell Crawford, nieces Anne Crawford and Susan Weinman. John was preceded in death by his parents, brother Cyrus, and son David. A celebration of John’s life will be held in early Spring.

John Eugene Johnson, age 93, passed away on January 11, 2019 in Santa Barbara. John was born in Los Angeles to Cyrus and Beatrice (Venator) Johnson. A decorated officer in the US Air Force, he served tours of duty as a radar operator/navigator in both WWII and the Korean War. Amongst medals he received are the Purple Heart and the Distinguished Flying Cross. After WWII, John finished his undergraduate education at UCLA, where he met his first wife, Barbara Hunter, whom he wed in 1948. After completing library school at USC, he was hired as a librarian at UCSB. John and Barbara had two sons, Mikael and David. John met his second wife, Carolyn (Nelson) Therianos at UCSB, and they wed in 1974. John and his two sons welcomed Carolyn's daughter, Christina, into the family, and soon thereafter Laurel and Steven were born. Throughout his life, John exuded joy when playing piano, guitar, or accordion, and that joy was especially infectious when he added his voice to the mix, as with his rollicking performances of the Marty Robbins classic, “El Paso.” He contributed his booming baritone to various local

Heidi lived her life joyously, laughing often, speaking her mind, and making friends and adventures wherever she went. She was a hiker, gardener, camper, kayaker, expert skier and instructor, competitive sailor, professional organizer, and certified Kundalini yoga instructor. Heidi loved the outdoors, and encouraged us to notice the beauty of nature around us. Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the daughter of Jean Walter and Sgt. Jacob Robert Nunnemacher of the 10th Mountain Infantry Division. Unfortunately, Heidi never knew her father; he died in combat trying to save the lives of his platoon at Torre lussi, Italy 10 days before the end of World War II. Heidi’s mother remarried twice adding 7 siblings to the family. They raced sailboats and ice boats on Lake Michigan and other Wisconsin lakes, and enjoyed winters skiing in Wisconsin and trips to the Colorado Rockies and Europe.

Heidi studied at Colorado Women’s College before marrying her high-school sweetheart, Jim Schulz. In 1974, they moved to Santa Barbara, CA for Jim to study at Brooks Institute of Photography. Since Jim was an avid fisherman, hunter and pilot, they traveled to Alaska, Canada and Mexico. With their firstborn Robyn, they ventured frequently to Baja Mexico, first camping on an island in the Sea of Cortez, and later building a home on a three-acre island alongside an extended Mexican fishing family, where their son Jason was born. In recent years, the house has been used as a research base for the University of California Santa Cruz's Marine Biology Research Laboratory. Although Heidi and Jim divorced in 2014, when Jim died in 2016 Heidi was at his bedside. In 2003, Heidi became the first Certified Professional Organizer in Chronic Disorganization and played an important role educating organizers and the public about the emotional as well as physical aspects of decluttering. She co-authored the ICD Clutter Hoarding Scale. Together with psychologist Roland Rotz, PhD., she crafted a collaborative approach to working with clients challenged by mild, moderate and severe clutter. Heidi was also a long-time volunteer for Food From the Heart in Santa Barbara preparing meals for community members in need. She participated in a number of Solstice Parades, usually on stilts, in elaborate costumes she created. In 2014 Heidi moved to Park City, Utah to be closer to her son Jason and the mountains. She quickly made new friends and found her place in the community teaching adaptive skiing and water sports at the National Ability Center (NAC).

OPINIONS CONT’D

Toxic Butts

n June 2017, the City of Santa Barbara passed an ordinance prohibiting smoking outdoors, including on public beaches and in city parks. This city ordinance is important as many of Santa Barbara’s beaches and coastal parks have an overabundance of cigarette-butt litter that works its way into our oceans. “Cigarette butts contain nicotine and carcinogenic bits of nonbiodegradable cellulose acetate which are toxic to wildlife and pose a risk to human health,” the environmental organization Ocean Conservancy asserts; it estimates 1.69 billion cigarette butts become litter in the U.S. annually. Cigarette butts can be lethal or cause carcinogenic tumors when ingested by shore birds such as the California gull, the California brown pelican, the endangered western snowy plover, and others. When cigarette butts come into contact with water, they release a toxic mixture of nicotine, cadmium, arsenic, and heavy metals. Creatures such as sea cucumbers, sea anemones, and many others have only a thin membrane, and it does not protect them from these toxins. They intake seawater for their circulatory systems, making them especially vulnerable to these toxic chemicals. Similarly, fish are extremely vulnerable to cigarette-butt toxins as they take in seawater through their gills. As residents of the Santa Barbara, let’s work together to protect our beautiful coastal environment. Pick up litter, especially micro-trash like cigarette butts. Inform smokers in outdoor areas, including our beaches and coastal parks, of the illegality of their smoking and of the lethal effect that cigarette smoke and cigarette butts can have on our — Robert Coronado, S.B. marine environment!

Pledge Perspective

s a veteran and SBCC student, I must say that including the Pledge of Allegiance at a college board meeting is strange. Why recite this in an environment that invokes free thought and is supposed to be all-inclusive for students, especially when so many are unhappy with our current government? Forced patriotism is fascism, no matter how you candy-coat it. But I get the idea of wanting to show patriotism: I took the Oath of Enlistment to protect the freedoms of all Americans through Desert Storm,

the Iraq War, and Afghanistan, and I re-enlisted in the Army National Guard after a childhood friend died in the World Trade Center. The words “under God” have never sat well in any government context because whose God are we talking about? I love science and don’t believe in any God, so where do I fit in that pledge? Imagine if they replaced the word “God” with “Allah”; I’m sure lots of people would think it inappropriate. I had a very nice email exchange with the pledge proponent, Celeste Barber, and she stated, “If you don’t wish to recite the Pledge, stand or sit silent. Respect the rights of others to do so.” She also expressed how horrifying it was to be heckled and called a racist. I wrote back to say that I know how she feels. I’ve been told by people who don’t share my views to “go back to Puerto Rico” or go back “over the border.” Words hurt and have a lot of weight coming from people you thought were on the same side as you and whom you’ve been in uniform to protect. If you ask me, things are grave and I agree our country is in trouble; however, forcing people to be patriotic will likely give you the opposite of what you’re looking for.

or the better part of 40 years now, biographer/historian Doris Kearns Goodwin has been writing about dead presidents. Her focus has been on the greats: Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Lyndon B. Johnson, all of whom are the subjects of her new book, Leadership: In Turbulent Times. One of America’s best-known popular historians, Goodwin is famously engaging as a storyteller; she has the rare gift to tell stories people might think they already know and make them new. Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns found her an irresistible presence as a diehard Brooklyn Dodgers fan in his nine-part series on the history of baseball. As a scholar, Goodwin does not deliver lectures. She’s too alive to what’s weird, wonderful, and amazing about her subjects. She connects the dots between the personal and the political without getting gossipy or surrendering to the amber lights of nostalgia. Goodwin will be in Santa Barbara on February 22 to discuss her latest book. In some ways, Leadership: In Turbulent Times is an old-fashioned character study, examining how the upbringing, challenges, and heartbreaks helped pave the way for the two Roosevelts, Lincoln, and Johnson to do great things under unimaginable duress. Of the four presidents, Goodwin actually knew Johnson, having served as a Fellow in his White House in 1967. While there, she famously wrote an anti-war article headlined, “How to Dump Lyndon Johnson.” He responded — equally famously — by not firing her as everyone expected but instead by setting about to win her over. It’s unclear who won over whom, but it was Goodwin who wound up helping Johnson write his memoirs. It’s hard not to read Goodwin’s latest book as an implicit rebuke of Donald Trump — rarely has any president cared less about the craft of governance or the art of politics. As fascinating as Goodwin is to listen to about previous occupants of the White House, the only question people have for her these days is about its current inhabitant. I was clearly one of them, as this exchange with Goodwin indicates.

DKG Historian Doris Kearns Goodwin Talks Turbulent Times, Dead Presidents, and the Demise of Presidential Dignity

I know you don’t write about Trump, but as someone who studies presidential leadership and character, how do you come to terms with the Trump phenomenon? If Trump is the answer, what’s the question? What are the structural and institutional preconditions that allow a faux reality-show star to become President of the United States? I know that’s a thesis or three unto themselves, but you must have a few thoughts on the subject other than abject despair. Though Donald Trump’s populist message may seem unprecedented, much of the polarization we see today is an echo of what the country experienced at the turn of the 20th century. Imagine what it was like for Theodore Roosevelt thrust into office after McKinley’s assassination, at a time when there was widespread talk of a coming revolution. The industrial revolution had shaken up the economy at the turn of the 20th century, much as globalization and the technological revolution have done today. Big companies were swallowing up small companies. Cities were replacing towns. Immigrants were pouring in from abroad. A threatening gap had opened between the rich and the poor. A mood of rebellion had spread among the laboring classes. Populists railed against Wall Street, against elites, against the cities. The anxiety many people feel now is caused by the same pressures that made people nervous about an America that was changing then, but with the right leader for the right time, and with citizen participation, we were able to get through the hard times.

COVER STORY

THOUGH DONALD TRUMP’S POPULIST MESSAGE MAY SEEM UNPRECEDENTED, MUCH OF THE POLARIZATION WE SEE TODAY IS AN ECHO OF WHAT THE COUNTRY EXPERIENCED AT THE TURN OF THE 20TH CENTURY.

Are there any crucible moments you’ve discerned in Trump’s background — like FDR’s polio, Teddy Roosevelt losing his wife and mother — that might suggest anything other than self-immolation as an outcome? Yes, there were events that would be crucible moments, like the death of his brother or his various bankruptcies, but in order for growth to come from challenges, the challenges must be acknowledged as such. Donald Trump said in an interview, “My whole life is about winning. I don’t lose often. I almost never lose.”

If Abraham Lincoln were not assassinated, any speculation how his trajectory may have played out? As difficult as reconstruction would have been even for Lincoln, everything we know about his leadership suggests he would have been the best person to handle that really difficult challenge. In terms of his trajectory: The last day of his life was a happy and a hopeful one. He and Mary drove out in an open carriage together and talked about their future. They had traveled an unimaginable distance together since their first dance in Springfield a quarter of a century earlier. Over the years, they had supported each other, irritated each other, shared a love of family and the loss of their son Willie, and so much more. Now, with the war coming to an end and time bringing solace to their grief, the Lincolns could plan for a happier future. They hoped to travel someday — to Europe and the Holy Land, over the Rockies to California, then back home to Illinois, where their life together had begun.

Lyndon B. Johnson is the truly great heroic monster of American politics. His accomplishments were so unfathomable, yet he allowed himself to be hoisted by the petard of Vietnam. Vietnam, of course, is ancient history, except it is not. Can you explain why Johnson could not declare victory and walk away? And when he thought Nixon was sabotaging his peace talks, why didn’t he do more about that? The handling of the Vietnam War will always be a scar on Johnson’s legacy. It ripped his presidency in two. We know more now than we did then about Nixon working behind the scenes to taint LBJ’s efforts at a peace initiative, even though Johnson was not seeking reelection. But what we can hold dear today is that 50 years later, LBJ’s domestic accomplishments continue to be celebrated — the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, the War on Poverty, and immigration reform, Medicare, Medicaid, fair housing, Head Start, PBS, NPR, the National Endowment for the Arts, and federal aid to education. Of the four presidents you write about, who would you most like to hang out with? Who would drive you crazy? Having already spent time with Johnson, a gifted and colorful storyteller, I would choose Lincoln. As a historian, I know I should ask him about what he would have done differently on reconstruction, but what I would really like to do is just ask him to tell me stories and watch him come alive. It would also be fun to spend time with Theodore Roosevelt and try to match his curiosity, his

pace. Once, I was talking to a group and someone asked me, If I had a daughter, who would I want her to marry: Teddy Roosevelt or William Howard Taft? I would choose Taft for her because he was steady, cheerful, and kind. But for myself, I would choose Teddy with all of his manic energy!

It’s inconceivable that any president today could have polio and the national media would not comment on it. When it came to FDR’s polio, how did the media cover it? How did they acknowledge it? Was it like some secret mistress? You would hope in today’s world that we would be able to talk about FDR’s polio and paralysis. He made the decision at the time that the country was not ready for it. He went to painstaking efforts to hide his condition, and the press honored his decision. In 1936, when FDR was going to deliver his acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, he was inadvertently pushed and the steel brace holding his right leg snapped out of position, causing him to fall, while the pages of his speech were tossed into the crowd. As he was raised back up on his feet and his speech collected, he said “Okay, let’s go.” He delivered a memorable speech that ended with, “This generation of Americans has a rendezvous with destiny.” Reports from the time say the cheers went on for 10 minutes. No one ever spoke of the fact that he fell. Juxtapose that with now: the images we’ve seen over and over again of President Ford falling down the steps of Air Force One, or President George H.W. Bush throwing up and fainting at a banquet hosted by the Prime Minister of Japan. There was a dignity to the office that is no longer. Reading about the profound emotional crises these figures experienced, it’s hard not to wonder what would have happened to them if they lived today. Would they have been given Zoloft or Prozac or some other mood stabilizer, lived much calmer lives, and accomplished so much less? I’m not sure that really qualifies as a question per se, but an invitation for you to riff on the mentalhealth challenges they faced and how such challenges were dealt with in their respective eras. Three out of the four seem to be strong arguments in favor of letting mental-health challenges run amok. … They got so much done. This is an absolutely fascinating question and is something I’d like to think n about. Perhaps we can talk about it another time?

This decision upset quite a few people in town who were shocked that my family would insert their morality into their daily lives. Some parishioners thought my father was too political. One Realtor asked him directly, “Do you mean to say that you would sell to a Negro?” He told her he would sell to anyone who could meet the financial terms. That’s when rumors began to circulate, even around the church community: “Did you know that the Evertons will sell only to Negroes?” “Did you know that the Evertons turned down a perfectly good offer from a white family?” It was getting crazy. Finally, the Advisory Committee on Human Relations asked the Santa Barbara Board of Realtors to have their members cease and desist from misrepresenting the facts. Gladyce O.

O Bohemian Rhapsody (134 mins., PG-13)

Telling the tale of a beloved rock-androll enigma, especially one so notoriously private, is a daunting task, but Bohemian Rhapsody tackles Freddie Mercury’s legendary story with flourish and fervor. Admittedly, the film adopts a convenient plot line ripe with meet-cutes and oversimplifications of Mercury’s complex relationship with his family and background. It struggles the most in addressing the often-discussed queerness of Mercury’s life, at times teetering toward bi-erasure and a lessthan-delicate portrayal of AIDS. Rami Malek shines as the shy yet vivacious Queen frontman and is spellbindingly

a&e | FILM & TV CONT’D FROM P. 51 convincing during both Mercury’s loneliest hours and explosive moments on some of the world’s biggest stages. The rest of the casting deserves a grand tip of the hat as well. Bohemian Rhapsody, for all its narrative flaws, is an earnest tribute to the iconic rock band, and remains a spectacle of sight and sound for music, Mercury, and movie fans alike. (JK) Fairview/Fiesta 5

The Favourite (120 mins., R) Olivia Colman, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz star in this historical dark comedy/drama set during the reign of England’s Queen Anne in the early 18th century. A tangled love triangle emerges between Anne (Colman), Abigail Hill (Stone), and Sarah Churchill (Weisz) that leads to treachery and betrayal.

O Capernaum

O Green Book

(126 mins., NR)

Those who are extra-sensitive to tales of woe concerning children cast adrift will be pained watching the Lebanese film Capernaum (Chaos), about a tough but fragile 12-year-old (Zain al Rafeea, grim and determined until the final shot) and an Ethiopian toddler immigrant (Boluwatife Treasure Bankole — best toddler performance of the year). But anyone with an interest in bold, emotionally powered cinema and the pressing issues of poverty and refugee struggles through tender eyes shouldn’t miss Nadine Labaki’s important film, a nominee for the Foreign Film Oscar and Jury Prize winner at Cannes. Naturalism meets assured-narrative machinery and courtroom drama in the poignant, youth-driven tradition of Bicycle Thief and the fellow foreign-film Oscar nom Shoplifters. (JW) Riviera Cold Pursuit (118 mins., R) Nels Coxman’s (Liam Neeson) quiet life in a mountain resort town is thrown into chaos when his young son is mysteriously killed. As Coxman seeks vengeance, he is pulled into a world of drug lords, setting off a turf war. Laura Dern and Emmy Rossum also star.

Cold War (89 mins., R) Based loosely on the life of director Pawel Pawlikowski’s parents, this film is a historical period drama set in Poland and France during the height of the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States and its allies. The film follows the love story of a musical director and a young singer from the 1940s to the 1960s. The Hitchcock

The Hitchcock

(130 mins., PG-13)

Green Book is an uncommonly welltold tale of bodyguard Tony Vallelonga (Viggo Mortensen) and classically trained pianist Don Shirley (Mahershala Ali), thrown together on a concert tour through the Deep South in 1962. Dr. Donald Shirley was a child prodigy, Russian-trained, and imbued with a dignity that suffered under the shortening of his name to “Don” by his record label. The film’s greatest transformation comes from Mortensen, who put on 25 pounds before the film began and added another 20 while playing Tony Vallelonga, a k a Tony Lip. His son Nick Vallelonga wrote the script, holding off until after Don Shirley had died, as requested. It’s a restraint that Green Book plays with so well that the usually blasé Santa Barbara film audience couldn’t help but erupt with applause at film’s end. (JY) Paseo Nuevo Happy Death Day 2U (100 mins., PG-13)

In this Blumhouse Productions slasher film sequel, two years have passed since Theresa “Tree” Gelbman (Jessica Rothe) entered and then escaped the time loop that previously had her running from a killer. She’s about to enter it again, however, and must face down another killer to be released from the loop forever.

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part (106 mins., PG) It’s been five years since Duplo invaded Bricksburg, not yet a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Despite the dire circumstances, Emmet (Chris Pratt) remains irritatingly upbeat, unlike his friends. Disliking his plucky demeanor, Mayhem

from Systar System kidnaps Emmet’s friends. A rescue mission ensues. Elizabeth Banks, Tiffany Haddish, and Will Fairview/Fiesta 5 Arnett also star. Isn’t It Romantic (88 mins., PG-13) Rebel Wilson stars in this comedy/ fantasy/satire about Natalie (Wilson), a woman who has never believed in the Hollywood rom-com fantasy. After being knocked unconscious, however, Natalie finds herself in her own cliché-filled romantic comedy and must eschew hackneyed situations to finally fall in love and be brought back to reality. Liam Hemsworth and Adam DeVine also star. Fairview/Fiesta 5 Spider-Man: Into the SpiderVerse (117 mins., PG) Marvel Comics presents this computeranimated film in which Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) becomes Spider-Man and crosses paths with his counterparts from other dimensions in order to stop a threat to reality.

BRUIN BLASTERS: Pictured above, Gaucho volleyballers Ryan Wilcox (4), Keenan Sanders (5), Hayden Boehle (6) and Casey McGarry (2) are fired up during their five-set victory over UCLA. Pictured right and below, senior hitter Corey Chavers (12) pounded 20 kills through the Bruins’ block and earned his third Big West Player of the Week accolade of the season.

GAUCHO VOLLEYBALLERS SEEK FIRST NATIONAL CROWN Coach Rick McLaughlin and Hitter Corey Chavers Rise Above UCLA

rivalry that boiled over 45 years ago continues to fire up the crowds in UCSB’s Robertson Gym. “It’s fun to beat that team,” UCSB men’s volleyball coach Rick McLaughlin said after the Gauchos scored a stirring five-set victory over UCLA last Wednesday. “I’ve followed the history closely and know what it means.” In the first six years that the NCAA sponsored men’s volleyball championships, the Gauchos met UCLA in the final three times, and each time, the Bruins prevailed. The 1974 final was played at Rob Gym and was an epic match in which the Bruins rallied to upset the top-seeded Gauchos. That result seemed to solidify a UCLA dynasty that has brought 19 national championships to Westwood. The Gauchos, meanwhile, still seek their first NCAA volleyball crown. They have been runners-up twice more, losing in five sets to USC in 1988 and Ohio State in 2011, McLaughlin’s third year at the helm. Last week, UCSB was ranked No. 6 in the nation and UCLA No. 4. After the Gauchos won their ninth consecutive match since being swept by the Bruins a month earlier, McLaughlin declared, “In the 11 years I’ve been here, this is one of the top two teams, if not the best team, I’ve coached.” During their streak, the Gauchos defeated

five nationally ranked teams — including backto-back sweeps of then–No. 3 BYU — as well as sweeps of Ohio State and Penn State. Throughout that surge, outside hitter Corey Chavers was an inexorable force for the Gauchos, posting double-digit numbers in kills each time out. After he pounded 20 kills in a four-set victory over No. 5 Loyola-Chicago on January 26, Chavers was named the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) national player of the week, the first time a Gaucho was accorded that honor since Jeff Menzel in 2011. Chavers, a 64 senior, blasted a match-high 20 kills with a .472 hitting percentage against UCLA. He punctuated the opening set with a pair of ace serves as the Gauchos showed they were not the same team that had lost their previous match at Pauley Pavilion. Each time UCLA came back, they had a response. The set scores were 25-18, 21-25, 25-20, 19-25, and 15-12. Both teams put high power into their serves, a risk-reward calculation that either dented the attack on the other side or sent balls harmlessly into the net, resulting in 32 service errors by the Gauchos and 30 by the Bruins. “That’s the game these days,” McLaughlin said. “We weathered it a little better in the end. Our guys hung in there. They knew they were a better team.” The Gauchos trailed early in the fifth set but came back on their own steady play and UCLA errors. Chavers scored match point by blocking Austin Matautia. “It felt good ending the match like that,” he said. “He’s tough,” McLaughlin said of Chavers. “He was our best passer tonight. He’s been working on it for a long time. That’s the kind of player he is — hard work, hanging in there, getting through the highs and lows. Now he’s one of the best players in the country.” If he had not lost a bet in high school, Chavers might never have discovered his talent for volleyball. He was a sophomore basketball player at Gahr High in Cerritos. “A friend on the volleyball team always talked to me about trying out,” he said. “We made a bet on a football game, the Cowboys and Patriots or something. All I remember is, I lost the bet, and I had to try out for volleyball.” He helped Gahr’s Gladiators win their first

JOHN ZANT’S GAME OF THE WEEK 2/22-2/23: College Baseball: William Jessup at Westmont Two NAIA top 25 teams meet in a four-game showdown this Friday and Saturday. William Jessup, ranked No.13, is the defending Golden State Athletic Conference champion, while No. 25 Westmont finished second last year to the Warriors from Rocklin. Westmont has roared off to a 9-0 start this season, leaving coach Robert Ruiz, in his 10th season, 15 wins short of John Kirkgard’s school record. Two key players are senior infielder Luke Coffey (out of Dos Pueblos High) and outfielder Bryce Morison (Santa Barbara High). Morison’s two-run homer in the ninth inning boosted Westmont’s Warriors to a 12-10 victory over Hope International last weekend. Fri.: 11am (doubleheader); Sat.: 11am (doubleheader).

league volleyball championship in a dozen years and make it to a CIF championship match in 2014. Chavers is the only senior starter for the Gauchos other than Hayden Boehle, who makes appearances as a libero for defensive purposes. A pair of freshmen came up big against UCLA, Ryan Wilcox making 10 kills and Brandon Hicks producing five blocks. A trio of juniors — Keenan Sanders (eight kills), Spencer Fredrick (nine digs and five blocks), and setter Casey McGarry — filled out the lineup. McGarry filled in for injured setter Randy DeWeese and delivered 33 assists. The UCLA match improved the Gauchos’ record to 12-3 before beginning their slate of Big West matches. In its second year of volleyball, the conference has emerged as the nation’s toughest. The 1-2-3 teams in last week’s NCAA rankings were Big West teams Long Beach State, the defending national champion, Hawai‘i, and UC Irvine. There is a two-week break before UCSB’s next home match on March 1 against UC San Diego. “We’ve been playing a ton of matches,” McLaughlin said. “It’s about time guys got a little rest and take midterm exams.” Long Beach State will visit UCSB on March 15. The conference tournament on April 18-20 at Hawai‘i will decide an automatic NCAA bid. McLaughlin said the Gauchos have played the nation’s toughest schedule to date, and as long as they continue playing at that level the rest of the way, they should have an argument for an at-large NCAA bid regardless of the tournament’s outcome. They would like nothing better than the opportunity to play UCLA in the postseason again. n

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): In December 1915, the California city

of San Diego was suffering from a drought. City officials hired a professional “moisture accelerator” named Charles Hatfield, who promised to make it rain. Soon Hatfield was shooting explosions of a secret blend of chemicals into the sky from the top of a tower. The results were quick. A deluge began in early January of 1916 and persisted for weeks. Thirty inches of rain fell, causing floods that damaged the local infrastructure. The moral of the story, as far as you’re concerned, Aries: When you ask for what you want and need, specify exactly how much you want and need. Don’t make an open-ended request that could bring you too much of a good thing.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Actors Beau Bridges and Jeff Bridges

are brothers born to parents who were also actors. When they were growing up, they already had aspirations to follow in their mom’s and dad’s footsteps. From an early age, they summoned a resourceful approach to attracting an audience. Now and then, they would start a pretend fight in a store’s parking lot. When a big enough crowd had gathered to observe their shenanigans, they would suddenly break off from their faux struggle, grab their guitars from their truck, and begin playing music. In the coming weeks, I hope you’ll be equally ingenious as you brainstorm about ways to expand your outreach.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): According to Edward Barnard’s book

New York City Trees, a quarter of the city is shaded by its 5.2 million trees. In other words, one of the most densely populated, frantically active places on the planet has a rich collection of oxygen-generating greenery. There’s even a virgin forest at the upper tip of Manhattan, as well as five botanical gardens and the 843-acre Central Park. Let’s use all this bounty-amidthe-bustle as a symbol of what you should strive to foster in the coming weeks: refreshing lushness and grace interspersed throughout your busy, hustling rhythm.

On the other hand, it’s not useful in LIBRA the same way that food and water and sleep are. Most (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Sixteenth-century Italian artist Danpeople don’t get sick if they are deprived of poetry. But iele da Volterra wasn’t very famous for his own paintI want to bring your attention to a poem that is serving ing and sculpture. The work for which we remember a very practical purpose in addition to its inspirational him today is the alterations he made to Michelangelo’s giant fresco “The Last Judgment,” function.

And depicted in the master’s work. He what does this have to do with you? I painted clothes and leaves over the suspect that in the coming weeks, you will have an extra capacity to generate blessings that are like Armitage’s originals’ genitalia and derrieres. In accordance with poem: useful in both practical and inspirational ways. astrological omens, I propose that we make da Volterra your anti–role model for the coming weeks. Don’t be like him. Don’t engage in cover-ups, censorship, or LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In 1979, psychologist Dorothy Ten- camouflage. Instead, specialize in the opposite: revelanov published her book Love and Limerence: The tions, unmaskings, and expositions. Experience of Being in Love. She defined her newly SCORPIO coined word “limerence” as a state of adoration that may generate intense, euphoric, and obsessive feelings (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): What is the quality of your access to for another person.

I advise you to enjoy the hell out of it! And now is an excellent time to intensify your efforts.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Based in Switzerland, Nestlé is the largest food company in the world. Yet it pays just $200 per year to the state of Michigan for the right to suck up 400 million gallons of groundwater, which it bottles and sells at a profit. I nominate this vignette to be your cautionary tale in the coming weeks. How? (1) Make damn sure you are being fairly compensated for your

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Michael Jackson’s 1982 song “Beat It” climbed to number three on the record-sales charts in Australia. On the other hand, “Weird Al” Yankovic’s 1984 parody of Jackson’s tune, “Eat It,” reached number one on the same charts. Let’s use this twist as a metaphor that’s a good fit for your life in the coming weeks.

According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you may find that a stand-in or substitute or imitation will be more successful than the original. And that will be auspicious!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The Space Needle in Seattle, Washing-

ton, is 605 feet high and 138 feet wide: a tall and narrow tower. Near the top is a round restaurant that makes one complete rotation every 47 minutes. Although this part of the structure weighs 125 tons, for many years its motion was propelled by a mere 1.5-horsepower motor. I think you will have a comparable power at your disposal in the coming weeks: an ability to cause major movement with a compact output of energy.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In 1941, the Ford automobile com-

pany created a “biological car.” Among its components were “bioplastics” composed of soybeans, hemp, flax, wood pulp, and cotton. It weighed a thousand pounds less than a comparable car made of metal. This breakthrough possibility never fully matured, however. It was overshadowed by newly abundant plastics made from petrochemicals. I suspect that you Aquarians are at a phase with a resemblance to the biological car. Your good idea is promising but unripe. I hope you’ll spend the coming weeks devoting practical energy to developing it. (P.S. There’s a difference between you and your personal equivalent of the biological car: little competition.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Cartographers of Old Europe some-

times drew pictures of strange beasts in the uncharted regions of their maps. These were warnings to travelers that such areas might harbor unknown risks, like dangerous animals. One famous map of the Indian Ocean shows an image of a sea monster lurking, as if waiting to prey on sailors traveling through its territory. If I were going to create a map of the frontier you’re now headed for, Pisces, I would fill it with mythic beasts of a more benevolent variety, like magic unicorns, good fairies, and wise centaurs.
