Samohi Vikings win first title Softball team routs defending champ North Torrance, 11-3

BY NICK TABOREK Staff Writer

SMMUSD HDQTS In a first-of-its kind bid to lessen the impact of school budget cuts, the Santa Monica Unified School District is accepting donations to pay teacher salaries.

The school board on Thursday approved a plan that will allow donors to target their money to save programs they feel are priorities.

Money can be earmarked to pay salaries in these areas: elementary school instruction, music instruction and library services or secondary school instruction and counseling.

Donations are being accepted through the Santa Monica Malibu Education Foundation. Money must be received by Aug. 15 to impact staffing levels for the next school year.

The fundraising drive comes after voters in a special mail-in election ending May 25 rejected Measure A, a $198 parcel tax that would have raised $5.7 million for SMMUSD annually for the next five years.

“Because the state is obviously not gong to be able to meet the needs of our district and children throughout our state, we’re looking at ways to do what we need to do locally,” said Shari Davis, president of the Santa Monica Malibu Council of Parent Teacher Associations.

IRVINE In a game with so many subplots, there is one thing that is certain: Samohi’s softball team is a CIF champion.

Santa Monica High School won its firstever California Interscholastic Federation Southern Section title in the sport on Saturday during a 11-3 rout of the North Torrance Saxons in the Division 4 final at Deanna Manning Stadium in Irvine. Samohi’s Emma Woo hit a deciding grand slam in the fifth inning to power the Vikings to victory.

“I’m just speechless,” Samohi Head Coach Debbie Skaggs said.

Saturday was the end to a season that has seen its share of emotion. The game was the last for Samohi’s Skaggs, who has coached the Vikings for 24 seasons. It was also played in tribute to late Athletic Director Norm Lacy, who passed away a week prior. The pressure was also on a North team that was attempting to win a third-straight title in Division 4.

All of those facts collided Saturday as the Wendy Perl perlphoto.com

Fiorina, Whitman making final push before statewide election JULIET WILLIAMS SAMANTHA YOUNG Associated Press Writers

RIVERSIDE Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina made a final push for votes Saturday in their bids for governor and U.S. Senate, invigorated by new polls showing them leading their Republican races just days ahead of Tuesday’s primary.

Whitman held a boisterous outdoor rally at a historic former hotel where she unveiled new campaign signs, a signal she expected to

move into the general election to face presumptive Democratic nominee Jerry Brown.

“When we win the primary on June 8th, then’s when the real work starts because we’re going to beat Jerry Brown,” the former eBay chief executive told a crowd of about 250 supporters at the Villa del Sol, where she kicked off her candidacy nine months ago.

“Jerry Brown was already governor 35 years ago, and it was not a great run.”

A Field Poll released Friday showed the former eBay chief executive with double the support of her Republican rival, state

Poizner spent the morning knocking on doors in Orange County and later held a low-key town hall question-and-answer session at the historic Mission Inn in Riverside, another Southern California Republican stronghold.

Whitman was accompanied on a large stage by former Gov. Pete Wilson and former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, with a band playing from a balcony and shouting supporters decked out in campaign T-shirts. By contrast, Poizner held a

subdued meeting where he was introduced by local elected officials and a taxpayer advocate.

Poizner called Whitman’s event a staged affair that was part of her pattern of trying to buy the governor’s office. Whitman, a billionaire, has spent a record-breaking $81 million to date, about $71 million of it from her own fortune; Poizner has spent $25 million of his own money.

“This is a massive spending campaign where she’s clearly trying to buy the thing.

’Shrek’ takes lead at the box office DAVID GERMAIN AP Movie Writer

LOS ANGELES Hollywood is in a June swoon as a rush of new movies fails to grab audiences.

DreamWorks Animation’s “Shrek Forever After” remained the No. 1 movie for a thirdstraight weekend with $25.3 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. It raised its three-week domestic total to $183 million.

“It appears that the family audience is dominating the box office right now, and families clearly want to see ‘Shrek,’” said Anne Globe, head of marketing for DreamWorks Animation.

The overall box office tumbled, coming in at $125 million, down 24 percent compared to the same weekend last year, when “The Hangover” opened with $45 million, according to box-office tracker Hollywood.com.

The best of the newcomers was Universal’s rock ‘n’ roll comedy “Get Him to the Greek,” which debuted at No. 2 with $17.4 million. The movie stars Jonah Hill as a record executive escorting an unruly rocker (Russell Brand) from London to Los Angeles for a concert.

Opening at No. 3 with $16.1 million was Lionsgate’s action comedy “Killers,” starring Katherine Heigl as a woman who marries her dream man (Ashton Kutcher) only to learn he’s an international assassin.

Nikki Rocco, head of distribution for Universal, said the studio is happy with the results for “Get Him to the Greek” but that slumping revenues for Hollywood in general are a concern.

“Everybody is talking to me about that, and I don’t have an answer,” Rocco said.

The weekend after Memorial Day a year ago, the blockbuster “Up” premiered with $68.1 million. That was more than the combined $52.3 million total for “Get Him to the Greek,” “Killers” and anemic openings for this weekend’s two other new wide releases — 20th Century Fox’s family comedy “Marmaduke” at $11.3 million and the Warner Bros. horror tale “Splice” at $7.5 million.

“The films a year ago were generating a ton of excitement, and this year’s just kind of falling flat. You had four new wide releases, and a three-week-old movie is still No. 1,” said Paul Dergarabedian, box-office analyst for Hollywood.com.

ON THE PROWL: Matthew Parker, co-founder of The Ticket Angels, rides his Vespa down 14th Street on Friday morning.

Ticket Angels take aim at parking violations

BY NICK TABOREK Daily Press Staff Writer

NOMA It’s a demoralizing feeling, and one that, for many Santa Monicans, is all too familiar: Just as you’re getting in your car, there on the windshield, flapping in the wind, is a parking ticket — a $61 reminder not to ignore your block’s weekly street sweeping rules.

For the chronically forgetful, there’s a new savior in town — a company created recently by two friends in the North of Montana neighborhood called The Ticket Angels that offers a guarantee you’ll never pay a street sweeping citation again.

The venture works like this: For a $60 annual fee, the Ticket Angels promise to comb your block just before a possible visit from City Hall’s parking enforcement team each and every day you could get a street sweeping ticket. If they see your car in jeopardy, they’ll notify you with a phone call, a text message or a knock at the door in time so you can move out of the way and avoid a ticket.

"Show Your Egg Pride"

If the Ticket Angels don’t live up to their promise, they’ll pay your ticket. If you change your ways and never need a reminder to move your car, they’ll give you a refund.

To founders Matthew Parker, 30, and Christopher Harati, 26, Santa Monica was the perfect place to launch the business.

“The signs are insanely complicated,” Parker, a Michigan native, said. “Santa Monica is known all up and down the West Coast as being one of the worst places to park … . People live in fear of parking here, so we’re trying to alleviate that.”

A notable example of Santa Monica’s notoriously rigorous parking enforcement took place last month, when a TV reporter for KTLA news received several parking tickets during a live broadcast from a beach parking lot in town.

Ticket Angels got its start this year after Parker reminded Harati to move his car to avoid a ticket on the Santa Monica block where the two were neighbors. For Harati, originally from Irvine, it was a light bulb moment. Soon after, they set their sites on

building the new company.

Each year, the city of Santa Monica takes in $13 million from parking violations, and Parker and Harati hope they can turn a large part of that amount into profits. And with cities throughout California operating under similar street sweeping rules as Santa Monica, they see the potential for a big expansion.

“If you take all of L.A., and all of the outlying areas, it’s hundreds of millions of dollars” that’s spent on parking tickets, Parker said.

Since they began seeking subscribers two months ago the, Ticket Angels have signed up more than 60 clients, mainly in the North of Montana area. They hope to soon cover all of Santa Monica.

To make their ticket-preventing rounds, one business partner rides a Vespa to scout for cars on the verge of being ticketed while the other monitors the company’s database of contact information. They stay in contact via walkie-talkies.

Homeless laws unfair

Ross Furukawa ross@smdp.com

Send comments to editor@smdp.com

EDITOR IN CHIEF Kevin Herrera

Editor:

Hearing Mayor Shriver and other City Council members deride the ACLU lawsuit should make anyone who knows what really goes on at City Hall very disappointed.

The ACLU lawsuit was legitimate, necessary, and full of truths that mendacious city officials want kept secret.

I worked for the Santa Monica Police Department starting in 1995 and witnessed and participated in the city’s continual campaign to criminalize homelessness. I worked on the Third Street Promenade Bicycle Patrol and witnessed illegitimate laws conspiratorially created so that the police could then use them against the homeless.

Some of the laws were created because city officials did not have the integrity or character to stand up to over-zealous individuals and groups who demanded that unconstitutional action be taken against the homeless. Instead, the City Attorney’s office has, and continues to write laws that have nothing to do with protecting public safety or property. The police department then willing enforces these unjust laws on some of our weakest and most vulnerable fellow citizens.

The City Council members, the City Attorneys, and the Police violated and continue to violate their oaths of protecting and defending certain constitutional rights of the people. Nowhere in the Constitution does it say that a person must own real property, have a leasehold estate, or possess any other type of real property rights in order to be afforded the protections of the Constitution.

There are many reasons why and how this happens, but I’ll list just a couple. First off, the people entrusted with the public’s safety have very high paying jobs that are very secure. They are often told to write laws and enforce laws that are illegitimate and go against the oaths they have taken. Some of these people don’t want to risk their high paying jobs or don’t have the character to stand up against what is wrong, so they just do what they’re told and go along with the program. Others are just plain wrong and truly believe it’s OK to write and enforce bogus laws because the scum they’re targeted at deserves the brutal treatment.

Section 3.12.350(a)(1) of the Santa Monica Municipal Code is a perfect example of a bogus law created just to target and eliminate homeless people from the downtown shopping area. Prior to the creation of this law, Officer Mitch Kato and I were sent out on the promenade to gather video evidence that the law was necessary. We went on the promenade during the busiest times and could find no legitimate scene to videotape.

We also couldn’t find any need for the law throughout the rest of the downtown area where the law is also in effect. After reporting our lack of results, I was told that it was no problem because the fire chief was a good speaker and can always come up with something to say to the council.

The law was written by the City Attorney and passed by the council in August of 1996. The council felt that any sitters caught in the act should really feel the brunt of abuse, so their idea of an appropriate penalty was to make it up to six months in jail, a fine of up to $1,000, or both a fine and imprisonment. Since 1996, the police have been arresting or ticketing homeless people for this while thousands upon thousands of non-homeless regularly enjoy the downtown sidewalks without being imprisoned.

It’s time that the mayor and City Council sit down and read the Constitution and understand what they’re really supposed to be doing.

Daryl Bristol

Why don’t you write about …

I appreciate being approached by people — whether it be by e-mail or in person such as at last week’s Memorial Day services at Woodlawn Cemetery — with suggestions about things to write about.

Last Monday, Jean Ann Holbrook, City Councilman Bob Holbrook’s wife, suggested I write about mailboxes at the main Post Office. She told me when Fifth Street was converted from one way to two way traffic a few years ago, the Postal Service removed most of the drive-up mail boxes.

I drove down Fifth Street last week. On the southbound side between Wilshire Boulevard and Arizona (Avenue not the state; we’re boycotting the state, you know) was one mailbox with a rather badly bent snout. Maybe for odd-shaped packages? On the northbound side, the mailboxes are only accessible from the sidewalk.

Mr. Postmaster, let’s put in some more drive-up mailboxes on both sides of the street so we can pull up, drop our mail and go on our way without stopping, getting out of our vehicles, walking around the mailbox, opening the mail slot, depositing mail, walking back to our car, getting in, fastening our seat belt and driving off.

Speaking of inconvenience, at last Monday’s Memorial Day service, the only access in and out of Woodlawn Cemetery was the partially blocked 14th Street gate nearest Pico Boulevard. The other 14th Street gate and rear gate on Michigan Avenue were chained and locked shut.

Coming from Michigan (the avenue not the state, which is not being boycotted) meant walking around the cemetery — something the 90-year-old veteran who was huffing and puffing up the 14th Street hill that I met was also not too happy about. All gates should have been open for easy and convenient pedestrian access instead of being chained as if it were Woodlawn Penitentiary. Management needs to make access to the cemetery open and inviting, not closed and inconvenient, especially during community services.

Traffic on Montana Avenue between Seventh and 17th streets has always been a bear with the mix of single bi-directional traffic lanes, bicycle lanes and pedestrian crossings at every block, alley and anywhere in between. It’s Santa Monica’s version of a “Smart Street” and it’s a mess The corner of 15th Street and Montana is one of the street’s busiest with people continuously crossing back and forth between Whole Foods and street parking on the north side to Starbucks on the southwest corner.

When Councilman Kevin McKeown first ran for office in 1998, one of his campaign promises was a crosswalk at 15th and Montana even if he had to paint it himself.

Back then, I urged him to also ask for a pedestrian-activated crossing signal. Twelve years later, there’s still no signal and no inpavement flashers, either.

Folks saunter into the street with cappuccinos in hand, ignoring traffic, often with kids in tow or pushing a stroller. Vehicles constantly screech to a stop while a yoga mom crosses, then a gaggle of teenage girls, then traffic inches forward and an old man steps off the curb, etc. A pedestrian-activated crossing traffic signal — a flashing red light such as at the marked crosswalks Downtown on Fourth Street — is desperately needed here.

It would be safer for all concerned and also result in less congestion on Montana if our City Council were to make signalized pedestrian crossing a priority. Meanwhile, it’s just a matter of time before someone is killed or seriously injured at that corner.

One of the farmers at the Pico Farmers’ Market told me about a “community” vegetable garden they is being planted in the market area of Virginia Park. It was in a roughly 40-by-20 foot planter that had been empty except for wood chips and sprinkler heads for some time.

I watched the farmers at work a few months ago and thought it was a very cool idea. Some of the market’s farmers and staff were planting corn, peppers, tomatoes, zucchini and other vegetables in the empty plot.

Neighbors could “help themselves” when the veggies were ready to harvest.

However, a City Hall grinch spotted the garden and said, “Oh no, that can’t happen.”

Park groundskeepers were quickly dispatched to uproot the offending veggies. The week-old vegetable patch was quickly a memory.

Small, nondescript bushes were planted in the space, probably to discourage any future attempts at even token sustainable agriculture. The moral of the lesson: the only corn allowed in Santa Monica is in the Community Maintenance Department.

City Hall is doing all it can to help us to stop patronizing Downtown merchants.

First they raise the bus fares, which was probably long overdue. Then they said they’d raise parking fees. Now, there’s talk about increasing “fines” for parking violations. I view all this as good reasons to “do business” in Culver City, Century City or the Westside Pavilion. How about you?

Containment cap partially successful RAY HENRY Associated Press Writer

NEW ORLEANS A device that’s now sucking up significant amounts of the oil spewing from the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico offered a measure of optimism Sunday even as the government’s point man on the spill warned problems would persist for months.

Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen said on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that the spill, which is ravaging beaches and wildlife, will not be contained until the leak is fully plugged and that even afterward “there will be oil out there for months to come.”

The disaster, which began with an oil rig explosion in mid-April, will persist “well into the fall,” Allen said.

A containment cap placed on the gusher near the sea floor trapped about 441,000 gallons of oil Saturday, BP spokesman Mark Proegler said, up from around 250,000 gallons of oil Friday. It’s not clear how much is still escaping; an estimated 500,000 to 1 million gallons of crude is believed to be leaking daily.

BP chief executive Tony Hayward told the BBC on Sunday that he believed the cap was likely to capture “the majority, probably the vast majority” of the oil gushing from the well. The gradual increase in the amount being captured is deliberate, in an effort to prevent water from getting inside and forming a frozen slush that foiled a previous containment attempt.

The next step is for BP engineers to attempt to close vents on the cap that allow streams of oil to escape and prevent that water intake, and Hayward told the BBC that the company hopes a second containment system will be in place by next weekend.

Allen told CBS that the oil would stop flowing only when the leak was plugged with cement.

Hayward, who has faced criticism over his company’s response to the spill, told the BBC that he wouldn’t step down and that he had the “absolute intention of seeing this through to the end.”

“We’re going to clean up the oil, we’re going to remediate any environmental damage and we are going to return the Gulf coast to the position it was in prior to this event,” he told the BBC. Allen took issue on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday with BP officials who said they were pleased with results of the latest effort. He said progress was being made, “but I don’t think anybody should be pleased as long as there is oil in the water.”

He said on “Fox News Sunday” that he doesn’t “want to create any undue encouragement” and that “we need to underpromise and overdeliver.”

While BP plans to eventually use an additional set of hoses and pipes to increase the amount of oil being trapped, the ultimate solution remains a relief well that should be

finished by August.

The urgency of that task was apparent along the Gulf Coast nearly seven weeks after the BP rig exploded April 20, killing 11 workers and rupturing the wellhead a mile below the surface. Since then, millions of gallons of oil have been rising to the surface and spreading out across the sea.

The oil is coating and miring waterfowl in the sticky mess, and dead birds and dolphins are washing ashore. Scientists say the wildlife death toll remains relatively modest, though, because the Deepwater Horizon rig was 50 miles off the coast and most of the oil has stayed in the open sea.

The oil has steadily spread east, washing up in greater quantities in recent days. Small tar balls have washed up as far east as Fort Walton Beach, about a third of the way across the Florida Panhandle.

Government officials estimate that roughly 23 million to 49 million gallons have leaked into the Gulf and say they are using a variety of strategies to curb its spread.

“What we’re doing right now is bringing all the skimming equipment in the United States that’s not being used for anything else and bringing it to bear down there,” Allen said on ABC’s “This Week.”

A line of oil mixed with seaweed stretched all across the beach Sunday morning in Gulf Shores, Ala. The oil was often hidden beneath the washed-up plants.

Outside a huge condominium tower, Leon Baum scrubbed oil off his feet with Dawn dishwashing detergent.

Baum had driven with his children and grandchildren from Bebee, Ark., for their annual vacation on Alabama’s coast. They had contemplated leaving because of the oil, but they’ve already spent hundreds of dollars on their getaway.

“After you drive all this way, you stay,” Baum said.

At Pensacola Beach, Buck Langston and his family took to collecting globs of tar instead of sea shells on Sunday morning.

They used improvised chopsticks to pick up the balls and drop them into plastic containers. Ultimately, the hoped to help clean it all up, Langston said.

“Yesterday it wasn’t like this, this heavy,” Langston said. “I don’t know why cleanup crews aren’t out here.”

With no oil response workers on Louisiana’s Queen Bess Island, Plaquemines Parish coastal zone management director P.J. Hahn decided he could wait no longer, pulling an exhausted brown pelican from the oil, slime dripping from its wings.

“We’re in the sixth week, you’d think there would be a flotilla of people out here,” Hahn said. “As you can see, we’re so far behind the curve in this thing.”

At the mouth of Alabama’s Mobile Bay, hundreds of seagulls squawked on a beach dotted with countless small tar balls but not a cleanup crew in sight.

NOTICE OF A PUBLIC HEARING BEFORE THE SANTA MONICA CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT:

Proposed creation of new fees and revision to existing fees charged by the City related to development review, records, inspection and general services in the Planning and Community Development Department, Public Works Department, and Fire Department as well as general services provided by other City departments.

Deep trouble below Dear EarthTalk Is it true that the BP oil leak is much more of an environmental threat than previous spills from tankers, and if so why?

WHEN:

TUESDAY, June 15, 2010 5:45 P.M.

WHERE:

Santa Monica City Hall, Council Chambers- Room # 213 1685 Main Street Santa Monica, California

NO ONE KNOWS FOR SURE HOW THE

ongoing oil catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico will affect the deep sea ecosystem, but scientists are not optimistic. Oil from what is now considered the nation’s second largest spill, 1989’s Exxon Valdez mishap, slicked 11,000 square miles of ocean surface and 1,300 miles of pristine Alaskan coastline while killing hundreds of thousands of birds and marine mammals and untold numbers of fish and fish eggs. But the impacts of the ongoing Deepwater Horizon leak in the Gulf may be far worse given that much of the loose oil is actually in the water column, not on the surface. In fact, researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently detected huge deepwater plumes of dispersed oil up to 30 miles long, seven miles wide and hundreds of feet thick.

Why would an undersea spill be worse?

One outcome could be the expansion in size and extension in time of a seasonal “dead zone” that already plagues the Gulf of Mexico as a result of industrial pollutants and agricultural run-off from the Mississippi River. While huge Gulf of Mexico algae blooms help to naturally clean up the Midwest’s factory emissions and wasted fertilizer, such a process doesn’t come without a cost to the ecosystem. Every spring, in a condition known as hypoxia, this fast growing algae depletes large sections of the Gulf ’s water column of the oxygen crucial for other life forms to survive there. The BP oil spill is likely to exacerbate this problem, as natural oil-eating microbes swarm-

ing over undersea oil plumes could cause or add to hypoxic conditions in otherwise teeming swaths of the Gulf.

According to NOAA researcher Samantha Joye, the undersea oil poses a direct threat to large marine wildlife, such as fish, sharks and cetaceans, and also to the tiny stuff, including zooplankton, shrimp, corals, crabs and worms. By endangering these latter populations, the foundation of the marine food chain, the oil could have chronic long-term effects on the wider Gulf ecosystem, including the industries — more shrimp and oysters come from the Gulf than anywhere else in the world — that rely on them.

Another worry is how the chemical dispersants being used to break up the undersea oil will impact the Gulf ’s ecosystems and inhabitants. The dispersant’s ingredients are a trade secret closely held by the company that makes it, and therefore have not been vetted by marine biologists to determine their safety for use in such a large application. It also remains to be seen what impact the tiny oil droplets left in the dispersant’s wake will have. It could actually be worse for the undersea environment to break the oil up into tiny droplets (which is done to try to make it easier for microbes to digest them).

Beyond all these undersea environmental effects, the oil is also starting to wash up into coastal wetlands already besieged by overdevelopment, pollution and the lingering effects of Hurricane Katrina. If there can be any silver lining to this catastrophe, it may be that it is the wake-up call we’ve needed to start moving more rapidly away from fossil fuels to a clean, renewable energy future. For starters, we can all begin to reduce our own oil consumption and opt for clean and green energy sources whenever possible.

BETTER BIKES

SAMOHI FROM PAGE 1 Vikings took the field with plenty of motivation.

The Vikings wasted little time in the first inning as leadoff hitter Haley Condon hit a playable ground ball to North third baseman Amanda Wondergem, who committed a fielding error on the play. After a sac bunt by Woo advanced Condon to second, Kalie Nakao slapped a single to right field, scoring Condon and giving the Vikings a 1-0 lead.

North finally caught and passed Samohi in the fourth inning as Sydney Halleen and Vanessa Gonzalez crossed the plate giving the Saxons a short-lived 2-1 lead.

That’s when Woo came up with arguably the biggest hit in school history.

With the bases loaded with Vikings, Woo came up with two outs in the fifth inning and quickly fell behind in the count. With two strikes and no balls, the senior catcher worked North starting pitcher Molly

Winders to a full count before crushing a grand slam well beyond the fence in right/center field.

“She finally gave me a pitch,” Woo said.

“She probably didn’t want to walk me. It was fat. I knew it was out when I hit it.”

The Vikings went on to score six more runs in the sixth inning, giving starting pitcher Celisha Walker more than enough support as the senior, bound to play for New Mexico State next season, pitched a complete game for her fifth victory of the playoffs.

The game marked the final time the team’s core of seniors would take the field together. The Vikings are graduating four seniors (Nakao, Walker, Woo and Condon) who will play for NCAA Division 1 teams next season. Joining that group are seniors, Holly Elander, Hailey Sheridan and Andrea Linares.

“These guys will move on to the next chapter in their lives,” Skaggs said. “But, nobody can take this from them.”

General Adjustment Number 33 Amount of General Adjustment (1) Controlled Units and Mobile Home Spaces Commencing on September 1, 2010, landlords of controlled units and mobile home spaces may increase maximum allowable rents by 2%, except as provided in subsection (c) below.

Definition of Maximum Allowable Rent For purposes of this section, the maximum allowable rent is the lawful rent in effect on August 1, 2010. This is composed of the rent level certified pursuant to Regulation 13005 (which represents the base rent ceiling, as defined by Section 1804 of the Rent Control Law, plus any individual or general adjustments authorized prior to the date of certification) plus any subsequent increases otherwise authorized by law and/or any subsequent general adjustments not precluded by a final Board decision or addendum unless: (1) The Board has rendered a decision in a base rent petition, a threshold rent petition, an individual adjustment petition or addendum after certification. In such a case the maximum allowable rent is the rent established by such decision or addendum, plus any subsequent increases otherwise authorized by law and/or any subsequent general adjustments not precluded by a final Board decision or addendum; or (2) For tenancies commencing October 1, 1995 through December 31, 1998 for which a vacancy rent increase has been lawfully established pursuant to Section 1954.50 et seq. of the Civil Code, the maximum allowable rent is the new maximum allowable rent established after vacancy plus any individual rent adjustments established in any subsequent Board decisions or addenda and/or general adjustments not precluded by a Board decision or addendum.

(3) For tenancies commencing on or after January 1, 1999, for which a vacancy increase has been lawfully established under Civil Code Section 1954.50 et seq., the maximum allowable rent is the new base rent after vacancy plus any individual rent adjustments established in any subsequent Board decisions or addenda and/or subsequent general adjustments to which the unit is entitled under this chapter.

(4) For condominium units which have not been separately sold and which are rented by tenants whose tenancies commenced between January 1, 1996 and May 7, 2001, the maximum allowable rent is the lawful rent in effect on May 7, 2001, plus applicable general adjustments as set forth in regulation 3302(c) and subsequent general adjustment regulations.

The registration fee pass-through set forth in Chapter 11 or any other surcharges permitted by law as set forth in Regulation 3100 et seq. shall not be considered part of the maximum allowable rent.

[3032 Adopted 06/01/10] A complete copy of this regulation is available at the Rent Control office, 1685 Main Street, Room 202, (310) 458-8751 or on the website: www.smgov.net/rentcontrol

TICKETS FROM PAGE 3 So far, they say not a single subscriber has been hit with a street sweeping citation and they’ve prevented $12,000 in parking fines.

For the company’s subscribers, the service is about saving money, but also about peace of mind.

“I think the problem really stems from the fact that I have three children and I can’t remember anything anymore,” said Ally Walker, an early Ticket Angels adopter who estimated she used to get two street sweeping tickets per month.

The Ticket Angels knocked on her door and helped her avoid a ticket a couple of months ago, and she signed up for the service on the spot.

“I think if the tickets were a little less expensive I’d be a little less upset about it,” she said. But $61 is “too a high a price to pay for being really forgetful.”

And the cost could be going up.

The City Council last month said it would consider increasing parking violation fines to help boost revenue for the Big Blue Bus, which needs more money to prevent service cuts. The council is expected to consider that idea, along with other possible fee increases, sometime this summer.

Roy Newman, a lawyer who lives north of Montana Avenue, said he was skeptical about the business plan at first but was impressed that Parker and Harati seemed to have done all their homework before launching the service.

“I’d much rather give them the money than the city of Santa Monica,” he said.

Though he’s not a chronic ticket-getter, Newman said it’s almost impossible to never

slip up. With two days of street sweeping per week, that’s 104 chances per year to get a ticket.

“It frees you up to not have to worry about it so much because you know they’re going to notify you if you forget,” he said of the service.

If the company makes a serious dent in the number of parking violations issued in town, they’ll have accomplished something City Hall could not, said Don Patterson, who oversees Santa Monica’s parking operations.

“We’ve done various outreach, we’ve done various signs, and we’ve not seen parking citation revenue decrease,” he said. Street sweeping occurs at the same time each week, he noted, yet people continue to forget.

Whether the Ticket Angels are the answer people have been waiting for remains to be seen.

“I would just say that it will be interesting to watch,” Patterson said.

The company has pledged to donate 10 percent of profits to the Santa Monica-based non-profit Children’s Lifesaving Foundation, where Parker has volunteered since shortly after moving to California last year to work in the film industry. Harati also moved to Santa Monica to concentrate on film.

The foundation’s chief operating officer, Francesca McCaffery, said she was happy to partner with a startup that’s doing something new and can save people money in a difficult economy.

“It’s so forward thinking and I think a lot of residents in the Santa Monica community feel the same way,” she said. “We love where we live, but sometimes you feel a tiny bit targeted by the meter maids.” nickt@smdp.com

ELECTION FROM PAGE 1 We all know that,” he told reporters after his event. “I’m counting on Republican primary voters figuring that out.”

Poizner said the contrast between the two was not just in their campaign styles, but also in positions on such hot-button issues as illegal immigration.

Fiorina, meanwhile, focused on the Central Valley Saturday, stopping at a campaign phone bank in a Sacramento suburb to deliver a simple message to prospective voters: She is the candidate best-positioned to beat three-term incumbent Barbara Boxer in the fall.

“A lot of folks have gone up against her and lost,” Fiorina told a voter from the cam-

paign call center in Gold River, an affluent community along the American River. “It’s important to have someone who can win.”

The former Hewlett-Packard Co. chief executive told reporters afterward that her endorsements illustrate her broad support.

They include Sen. Olympia Snowe, a moderate Republican from Maine, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Dick Morris, a former adviser to Democratic President Bill Clinton who resigned after news reports surfaced linking him to a prostitute.

Saying she can defeat Boxer is a bold assertion from Fiorina, who has taken some hard-right positions on abortion, immigration and health care in recent months. Boxer has said Fiorina is too conservative for most California voters, twothirds of whom are Democrats or centristminded independents.

GETTING STARTED

SOLUTIONS TO YESTERDAY’S PUZZLE

There are many strategies to solving Sudoku. One way to begin is to examine each 3x3 grid and figure out which numbers are missing.

Then, based on the other numbers in the row and column of each blank cell, find which of the missing numbers will work. Eliminating numbers will eventually lead you to the answer.

TM

• Fill the grid with the set of given numbers (1 to 12) to satisfy the Equa demands (7 to 24) in the shaded boxes. The Equa demands represent the sum of the digits that you will insert into the empty squares.

• Each horizontal row has one Equa demand to satisfy; each vertical column also has one demand to satisfy. Each empty square in the grid dictates the math operation (addition +, subtraction -, multiplication X, and division ÷) that must be performed to meet the demands.

• You must follow the given math operations for each square and you must make sure all the numbers satisfy the demands in the shaded boxes when connected in adjacent threes and calculated together from left to right, and top to bottom.

• The numbers you insert into the grid must satisfy the Equa demands both horizontally and vertically.

He tried to explain that he had no other choice, in that his wife had already banned him from watching child porn at home.

■ In December 1994, the Air Force Times reported that Army soldier Joseph Cannon had recently ended his six-year career having not received a single military paycheck after boot camp. Officials said Cannon's records were lost at his first duty station, but that he had never complained, though he missed 144 paychecks totaling, in 1994 dollars, about $103,000.

Apparently, Cannon lived only in the barracks, ate only in the mess halls, and borrowed money from relatives whenever he had special needs.

■ America What a Country! In 2007, after a stay in the United States distinguished mainly by his acquisition of a long police record, illegal immigrant Cecil Harvey, 55, was deported to his native Barbados. However, according to records revealed by the New York Post in May, Harvey received, in late 2009, one last remembrance of America: $145,000 from the city of New York in settlement of his lawsuit over having once been held at Rikers Island jail for about a month longer than the law permitted.

TODAY IN HISTORY Asian cholera reaches Quebec, brought by Irish immigrants, and kills about 6,000 people in Lower Canada.

The United States and Britain agree to suppress the slave trade.
