PROTECT NET NEUTRALITY

I am writing to you because I want to protect our open Internet. Two years ago, the FCC under Ajit Pai repealed the net neutrality protections that make the Internet an open and free platform to connect and exchange ideas. If we can’t restore these protections, the Internet as we know it could change forever.

The House of Representatives has passed the Save the Internet Act, which will restore the open Internet protections that were repealed by the FCC in 2017.

Now, Senate Republicans and Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema are blocking the bill in the Senate, despite the overwhelming and crosspartisan support that net neutrality has with the American public.

I hope our senators vote in favor of this bill. Otherwise, we’ll be forced to hold them accountable at the ballot box in 2020.

PLEASE WRITE OR CALL

After three years of nearly nonstop advocacy efforts, the hopes of California’s developmentally disabled and their families now rests with the governor and key leaders of the Legislature. I’m writing from AbilityFirst, based here in Pasadena servicing children and adults with disabilities in the region.

Community advocates who have been fighting for an 8 percent increase in rates for disability services have reason for hope, but also for concern. Advocates were heartened when the state Senate voted to provide funding for an 8 percent increase in their version of the budget. But when the State Assembly voted, they paired back the funding to allow for increases of just 5.5 percent. The Assembly ver-

sion of the budget also failed to address hardships organizations like AbilityFirst and in the Los Angeles area are facing due to higher minimum wage costs.

Because of the differences in the two budgets, the funding for these services now moves to the Conference Committee.

Gov. Newsom, President Pro Tem of the Senate Toni Atkins, Speaker of the Assembly Anthony Rendon and Budget Chairs Sen. Holly Mitchell and Assembly member Phil Ting will lead these negotiations to fi nalize California’s budget for the coming year. They will complete their work before June 15.

People with developmental disabilities who depend upon support services and their advocates have been fighting for the 8 percent included in the Senate budget to slow the loss of experienced direct care staff who are leaving for better paying positions in fast food and retail industries. There are roughly 350,000 people who have been formally identified as eligible for services through California’s Lanterman Act. Each has an extended family of five or more who are directly involved with their loved ones. We estimate the California workforce to be close to 100,000 devoted to serving these individuals and their families. Roughly 30 percent of all of these people live

within the greater Los AngelesOrange County area.

I’m writing to ask members of the Pasadena community to please contact the following legislators during the next couple weeks and demand the 8 percent increase in rates for services provided to people with disabilities. The programs at the AbilityFirst Lawrence L. Frank Center in Pasadena depend on this crucial funding. AbilityFirst is a 93-year-old organization that sees the talents and possibilities in every individual and helps them to achieve their goals. But without the 8 percent increase, low pay for our staff will lead to unfulfi lled positions that result in program closures.

HOPE ON THE FRONTLINES

THE GOAL OF THOSE FIGHTING HOMELESSNESS IS GETTING PEOPLE INTO PLACES OF THEIR OWN

I

n the early 1990s, when I moved to Los Angeles from a small town in West Texas, the city was struggling to confront the magnitude of the AIDS epidemic.

I took a job in a treatment clinic downtown because I longed to help the most vulnerable among us — and to do my part in providing them with the resources and care they needed.

Today, Los Angeles is in the midst of a different crisis: homelessness. Each night, tens of thousands of people are sleeping on sidewalks; thousands more are living in cars or shelters. There’s nothing new about this crisis. Since the early years of Skid Row, LA’s streets have been the city’s de-facto shelters.

The gravity of this crisis can feel overwhelming and dispiriting at times, because homelessness is not just experienced in one place, but everywhere. The truth is that we haven’t seen the magnitude of people experiencing homelessness as we are today.

Nonetheless, I approach our homelessness crisis with a renewed sense of promise — and believe we have good reason to be hopeful about the future.

With the passing of Measures H and HHH, we are beginning to move in the right direction, creating the systems and implementing the programs that reshape how we help people experiencing homelessness. For the fi rst time, LA County has increased its investment in direct services, growing the number of outreach workers and case managers who are equipped with an effective, streamlined system to connect people with services and housing assistance.

On top of this progress, public perception is changing. More and more Angelenos are recognizing the urgency. With the support of United Way of Greater Los Angeles’ Everyone In campaign, people across the county are learning how to advocate for supportive and affordable housing in their neighborhoods.

“Homes end homelessness,” as the Everyone In campaign asserts, is not just a slogan. For folks on the frontlines, it’s a truth we hold closely and fight for every day.

I have experienced this shift in public opinion firsthand. A few weeks ago, I spoke with a congregation in Woodland Hills. And like many I have interacted with in recent months, most were longing to fi nd opportunities to do more than pack hygiene kits and donate clothes. While they hoped to hear about how we are helping people experiencing homelessness, they yearned to learn how long-term housing solutions actually work.

I showed them a 30-minute clip from “The Advocates,” a documentary that reveals the stories of frontline outreach and caseworkers who are fighting on behalf of those experiencing homelessness, working tirelessly to get them supportive housing and critical services.

As the clip concluded, the room fell silent. I was humbled, but I was not surprised. Indeed, every person I’ve shown this fi lm to has had a similar reaction — a real aha moment.

And that’s because “The Advocates” begins to answer one of the most pressing questions that has been weighing on our collective conscience for so long: What does it take to get a person experiencing homelessness back into the safety and stability of a home?

The truth is that it takes a lot: an empathic relationship that often takes months to build, jumping through dozens of hoops (“hoops of fire,” we call them), and set-backs.

But then, you have that moment of yes — when you fi nd someone a place to call home, supportive housing. With that home comes an enriching community with wraparound services such as life skills and job skills training and health care services that can really change a life.

With each yes I witness at Housing Works, I remember why I do this work. And I remember why everyone in Los Angeles must join us in this fight. ■ Celine Alvarez is executive director of the nonprofit Housing Works.

UNITED THEY STAND GROUPS FORM PASADENA TENANT JUSTICE COALITION TO GET RENT CONTROL ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT

A

ccording to a recent poll, nearly 70 percent of local residents support rent control and more than 80 percent support a law that would block landlords from evicting residents without a valid reason.

Meanwhile, separate groups that have advocated over the past few years for fair rents in Pasadena have joined forces to form the Pasadena Tenant Justice Coalition (PTJC).

The group used its inaugural meeting to announce its formation and plans to put a rent control measure for Pasadena on the November ballot.

The PTJC — comprised of the Pasadena Tenants Union,

Affordable Housing Advocates, the Democratic Socialists of America Los Angeles (DSA-LA) and the ACLU SoCal — plans to start collecting signatures in the fall.

“The Pasadena Tenant Justice Coalition (PTJC) is forming to address the lack of tenant protections in Pasadena resulting in escalating and unconscionable rents, as well as the city’s allowance of the practice of evicting tenants who are in full observance of their lease obligations without cause, resulting in extreme housing instability for many tenants,” said Nicole Hodgson, PTJC member. “Low-and-moderate income tenants of color have been especially hard hit by the city’s failure to control CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders will hold a campaign rally at noon Friday, May 31, at the Pasadena Convention Center., 300 E. Green St. The event is part of a West Coast swing that includes stops in Nevada, San Jose and San Francisco.

After the event at the Convention Center, Sanders will speak at a forum on immigration along with candidates Kamala Harris, Jay Inslee and Julian Castro that will be held by the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights Los Angeles (CHIRLA) and FIRM Action at 3:30 p.m. at the Pasadena Hilton, 168 S. Los Robles Ave. That event is closed to the public.

Sanders was the only presidential candidate to visit Pasadena during the 2016 presidential election. He trails former vice president and Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden by double digits, according to a number of polls.

“I am really excited,” said Sanders state delegate Melissa Michelson. “This is Pasadena’s opportunity to hear from the man himself in a full speech. The media usually just gives snippets of his speeches.”

Michelson also served as a national delegate for the 27th congressional district in 2016.

The 77-year-old Sanders’ 2016 run transformed politics and gave progressives a stronger voice pushing for Medicare for all, a fair living wage and breaking up Wall Street banks.

His policies captured the imagination of young people across the nation, but he was unable to defeat Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination, despite polls that claimed Sanders would defeat Donald Trump in the General Election.

So far, 23 candidates have thrown their hats into the race for the Democratic nomination.

Pasadena has become a hotbed for Democratic politics over the past 20 years, as Al Gore came to town during the 2000 election, Hillary Clinton held a rally across the street from the Pasadena Weekly during the 2008 elections, and then-candidate Barack Obama, who once lived in Pasadena, held a campaign event at Castle Green.

“Bernie is serious about the grassroots,” Michelson said. “He has been to downtown Los Angeles and he is going to the communities. He can fill big stadiums and still rally local communities.”

Doors open at 10:30 a.m. The event starts at noon Friday, May 31 at the Convention Center.

The event is free and open to the public. Tickets are not required, but an RSVP is encouraged.

Entrance will be provided on a first come, first served basis. Parking is limited.

JAYLENE MOSELEY: 1949-2019

CANCER CLAIMS THE LIFE OF BELOVED COMMUNITY ACTIVIST AND BUSINESSWOMAN

BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

Flintridge Center CEO, local commercial developer and longtime social activist Jaylene Moseley died Saturday, one day before her 70th birthday, following a battle with cancer.

Winner of multiple awards for her work in the community, Moseley also founded the J. L. Moseley Co., which developed and managed commercial real estate in Northwest Pasadena and Altadena.

“Jaylene ’s biggest legacy is the impact her work and her efforts had on community-driven change and policies,” said former Pasadena City Councilwoman Jacque Robinson-Baisley, a longtime friend. “She made it clear that it was never about her as an individual but us, as a community, especially those who needed that first, second or third chance to be successful.”

Before moving to Pasadena, Mosely grew up in Big Timber, Montana, population 1,000, and attended Montana State University, where she majored in music from 1967 to 1970. “I didn’t leave Montana until I was 20, when I decided to see all 50 states,” Moseley is quoted as saying in the book “Hometown Pasadena: The Insider’s Guide.”

“I worked when I needed money; I made it to 45 states in five years and then I ended up staying in California because I liked its diversity and progressive and creative people,” Moseley said. “I was just lucky in picking Pasadena.”

News of Moseley’s diagnosis was revealed last week in an email to her supporters.

“All of us have been touched in some way by Jaylene’s all-consuming dedication to making our community a place that is free from the cycles of violence and poverty, and it has been our honor and privilege to work beside her, and under her gentle leadership, in trying to make that dream a reality,” according to a statement issued by the center.

Moseley was involved in Pasadena and Altadena community affairs for more than 25 years. As president of the nonprofit Flintridge Center, she helped the community as it struggled with gang violence and the reintegration of prison parolees into society. Moseley served as the managing director of the center from 1986 through 2007.

In 2002, Moseley formed a coalition of students and residents to establish afterschool activities at John Muir High School. The effort let to the creation of Mustangs on the Move, consisting of 20 educational and enrichment programs.

Moseley was also a key part of then-Councilwoman Robinson-Baisley’s Vision 20/20 initiative, which prepared more than 200 high-risk and gangaffiliated individuals for construction trades.

Moseley’s numerous laurels for community leadership and sustainable development practices include a 2019 County of Los Angeles award for more than 30 years of dedicated service. In 2017, she was named the 41st Assembly District Woman of the Year, presented by Assemblyman Chris Holden, 29th Congressional District Woman of the Year Award from US Reo. Adam Schiff in 2008, and in 2003 the Ruby McKnight Williams Award, presented by the Pasadena NAACP. Moseley is survived by her husband Alex Moseley, a local artist and craftsman.

Memorial services were pending at press time.

“She was a friend and mentor to not just me but countless others. My heartfelt condolences go out to Alex, the Flintridge Center family and every youth, young adult and person who deserved and earned the gifts of her heart through her work in the community. She is surely missed by all of us who love her.” n

HAMPTON TO RUN AGAIN

DISTRICT 1 COUNCILMAN ANNOUNCES INTENTION TO RUN FOR SECOND TERM

BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

Pasadena District 1 City Councilman Tyron Hampton announced this week that he is running for re-election.

Hampton has filed a candidate intention statement with City Clerk Mark Jomsky.

Hampton was born and raised in Pasadena and graduated from John Muir High School where he met his wife Tara GomezHampton. They have one daughter.

During his time on the council, Hampton, a small business owner, focused on quality-of-life issues in his district. He opposed the NFL playing in the Rose Bowl, and continues to maintain contact with his constituents by holding frequent community meetings and walking his district.

Hampton currently sits on the council’s Public Safety Committee and the Economic Development and Technology (EDTECH) Committee.

He also sat on an ad hoc committee formed by Mayor Terry Tornek to shore up plans to implement sales tax funds earmarked for the Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD). n 8 PASADENA WEEKLY | 05.30.19

rents and its allowance of arbitrary evictions.”

The campaign, states a press release issued last Monday afternoon, “will focus on tenant power of making sure rents cannot increase more than inflation, and landlords can’t evict tenants without cause.”

According to Pasadenans Organizing for Progress (POP), a poll conducted by David Binder Research revealed that 69 percent of local voters support rent control and 82 percent support a law that would block evictions without a valid reason.

“The survey results are not surprising,” said Ed Washatka, chair of POP’s housing committee. “The voters are telling the mayor and City Council that they want them to pass laws that protect renters against skyrocketing rent increases and unjust evictions.”

According to the poll, all racial groups support rent control locally, with the lowest support coming from white residents, who still overwhelmingly support both measures at 65 percent. Seventy-four percent of Asian Americans polled also supported rent control and a fair eviction law. In the poll, 76 percent of African Americans supported the measures and 78 percent of Latinos also said they supported rent control and a law protecting tenants from unjust evictions.

The poll also found widespread support for rent control in all seven council districts.

Eighty-one percent of the respondents in Pasadena’s District 5 favored rent control, followed by 76 percent in Districts 1 and 3. Sixty-eight percent of the respondents in District 4 support rent control. In District 2, 66 percent of the respondents said they supported rent control. In District 7, 61 percent of the respondents they support rent control, as well as 58 percent in District 6.

According to POP, 700 local voters took part in the poll.

“The political establishment is out of touch with the reality of ever rising costs and unjust evictions for immigrant and working class families and families of color,” said Pablo Alvarado, POP board member and executive director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network. “I hope that our political leaders engage in a constructive and honest dialogue to bring justice to the housing market in our city.”

While state and local officials point to a housing shortage as the cause of increased housing costs, they disagree on the solution.

Suburbs across the state, including Pasadena, helped stall a bill that would have forced communities to allow mixed-use projects in single family home neighborhoods.

Senate Bill 50, which would have prohibited cities across the state from banning mid-rise apartments within a half-mile of public transit stations and allowed for four or more homes on parcels of land in single family neighborhoods, failed to advance out of the state Senate’s Appropriations Committee on May 17.

Critics claimed the bill would lead to a takeover of local land use ordinances and result in increased density.

The bill could return in January. Supporters claimed it would have added much needed housing and decreased costs.

According to a study out of UC Berkeley’s Urban Displacement Project, Old Pasadena and most of central Pasadena south of the 210 Freeway would not have been impacted by the bill due to the amount of existing apartment buildings in the area.

However, heading east past Lake Avenue, many of the communities could have been vastly impacted by the bill, including Allen Avenue near Marshall Fundamental School, and neighborhoods along the South Fair Oaks Avenue corridor below Del Mar Boulevard all the way to the South Pasadena border.

“We need to recognize there is a housing crisis in California,” said Pasadena City Manager Steve Mermell. “Without significant increase in residential units home affordability will continue to diminish and rents will continue to rise faster than incomes.

SB 50 was likely well intended but it was too blunt of a solution. It would have crammed just too much density on Pasadena, which has been a good actor in terms of allowing growth and development.

I’m hopeful the recent actions in Sacramento will allow time for the development of better legislation that will effectively address the problem while maintaining local land use control.”

Pasadena has taken some steps to protect local tenants. In 2018, the Pasadena City Council enacted an ordinance called the Pasadena Tenants Protection Ordinance, which entitles some tenants to compensation if landlords sell the building resulting in tenant eviction.

Two separate attempts have been made over the past two years by first the Glendale Tenants Union (GTU) and later the Pasadena Tenants Union (PTU) to initiate rent control in those cities, two of the most expensive communities in the country in which to rent. However, both efforts failed to qualify petitions for their respective elections.

In May 2018, the PTU had only collected 8,679 signatures. At least 12,300 valid signatures were required, according to City Clerk Mark Jomsky.

A similar effort in Glendale failed in October 2017 after Glendale City Clerk Ardy Kassakhian deemed the petition “deficient and invalid.”

According to Kassakhian, the text of that measure did not contain the ballot title and summary by the city attorney. The text of the measure also was not included anywhere in the petition, a violation of the California Election Code, Kassakhian said. Further, the petition did not include a declaration by the author.

A one-bedroom apartment in Pasadena costs about $2,100 a month and landlords in California can increase the rent as much as they want. Some local residents claim their rent has increased by

T

he number of homeless individuals in Pasadena decreased by 20 percent this year compared to 2018, according to the 2019 Homeless Count Report released on May 20 by the city of Pasadena’s Housing Department, the Pasadena Partnership to End Homelessness and Urban Initiatives.

The annual count is a one-night snapshot of those living in unsheltered locations and temporary shelters. This year’s count was conducted on the evening of Jan. 22 into the early morning of Jan. 23, 2019, and tallied 542 people experiencing homelessness in Pasadena, compared to 677 in 2018. That makes 2019 the second lowest year since the count began in 1992, after only 2016, when 530 people were counted.

Homelessness in Pasadena has generally been on a decline since 2011, when 1,216 people were counted (except for an uptick the last two years). In 2011, the city and homeless services providers implemented a new approach: housing first, as

opposed to clearing up personal issues and then being placed into a home. And city officials and homeless advocates say that approach is highly successful.

“Permanent supportive housing is the only thing that ends homelessness,” said William Huang, the city’s housing director, during a panel on homelessness at the West Pasadena Residents’ Association’s annual meeting on May 8.

Officer Donovan Jones of the Pasadena Police Department’s Homeless Outreach Psychiatric Evaluation (HOPE) team and Shawn Morrissey, Union Station Homeless Service’s director of advocacy and community engagement, also served on the panel.

Oh, My DOMENICO’S ITALIAN RESTAURANT BOASTS AUTHENTIC CUISINE WITH A FEW TASTY TWISTS

BY EVELYN GARCIA / PHOTOS BY DANNY LIAO

hile I often bring along a friend or family member to my regular dining excursions for the Pasadena Weekly, there is something blissful, even luxurious about dining alone. Enjoying a meal without engaging in conversation, paying more attention than usual to all the behind-the-scenes action and how the staff interacts with one another and diners, and having some down time alone after a long work week is a joy for me. Just throw some pasta and gelato into that scenario and call it a spa day for one.

Recently I visited the well-known and much-loved Domenico’s Italian Restaurant and had one of the best experiences I’ve had at the PW thus far, and that is not just because pasta is my favorite food, as I may have previously mentioned once or twice.

Domenico’s is located on East Washington Boulevard

Zelo Pizzeria has expanded the dining room to better serve you, so come in and give Zelo Pizzeria a try.

in Pasadena, and has been in the same location since 1960, which was evident on my solo night out. Although it was pretty full when I arrived, everything about Domenico’s felt homey and comfortable. There were no cheesy props or decor that screams “Italian,” like bright red checkered tablecloths or stereotypical Italian chef figurines, mainly because everything about Domenico’s screams authentic. I was seated at a small table in the corner and enjoyed having a view of everyone else. Families and couples dined together, and it was clear that the waiters were either familiar with their patrons, or they were just friendly and welcoming. My waiter joked with the large party in front of me for some time before taking their orders.

To start, I had the fried ravioli ($8.95), which came out within 10 minutes of ordering and was nothing short of amazing. Fried ravioli stuffed with cheese and served with marinara to dip into — could it get any better? I knew immediately I would take home half of the generous portion. The servers were happy to answer my questions, so when it came down to deciding what sauce for my gnocchi a la carte ($10.49), it was suggested that I try the creamy marinara for $1 extra. Creamy marinara is simply regular marinara sauce mixed with alfredo to give a creamier consistency, and just so happens to work best with the gnocchi, as my waiter suggested. No surprise there. My initial choice of pesto would have been good, but not nearly as perfect. Even a la carte my meal was served with a side of garlic bread.

I should preface my remarks by saying that gnocchi is on my short list of favorite pastas, so perhaps I’m biased to say that their gnocchi is one of the best I’ve ever had. While it tastes good because of the nature of the pasta, this gnocchi was special. Each bite was plump, pillowy, chewy, and made me want to take a nap on the heaping plate of it in front of me. As I was eating, a server came to the pair next to me and said, “We ready for

boxes?” knowing full well that they, like me, would not be able to finish the entirety of their meal.

Sometime later I wasn’t even halfway through and my server came to me and with a smile asked if I wanted a box. While I could have continued eating, I reluctantly agreed and he whisked away the plate.

Many of their entrees are served with a choice of soup or salad and garlic bread, so it felt like staff had an acquired radar that could detect when diners were close to their limit, and they rushed to save the day — or in the case of some diners and me, helped us avoid that feeling of a food coma coming on.

In my case, they couldn’t quell my desire to at least try their gelato. I went with the cookies and cream ($4.95), made with cookie bits and coated in hard shell chocolate, then served in a portion size for one person, or to share if you’ve already fallen into a semi-comatose state. Although it isn’t made in-house, the gelato is tasty. My waiter shared with me his favorite is the brownie cake, but that will have to wait for next time.

Since I’d never been to Domenico’s, it dawned on me later that perhaps going in a group would have been ideal in order to try their pizza — for which they are best known. Their menu boasts both traditional pizza toppings and options to make it unique, like salami, chorizo, broccoli, and artichoke hearts, all dependent on the number of toppings preferred. Gluten-free crust is available, with the rest of the menu featuring cold and hot sandwiches, such as eggplant, sausage, even a pizza sandwich ($9.40-$10.40). Beyond the amazing and diverse Italian fare offered, the most appealing aspect of Domenico’s is its no-fuss experience and cozy feel. Despite the place being busy the night I was there, it feels like a restaurant you’d only know about as a local resident. While the restaurant has earned great reviews online, most of those people seem to agree with that sentiment. Whether with a group or alone, like me, Domenico’s is sure to win you over.

SELF-CARE BY A ‘MAN OF A CERTAIN AGE’ CAN BE A HEALTHY EXPRESSION AND ATTRACTIVE TO WOMEN

Dear Patti, My wife died 15 years ago and for the first time since I have a desire to settle down again. I recently turned 60, however, and lately I seem to have become invisible to women. In the past, I’ve had plenty of romantic success. Although I’ve never been what people call classically handsome, I’ve always been known for my conversation and personality. I am trying not to be superficial, but I am starting to worry that what looks I had are now fading and I am looking my age more than I used to. Also, while I have acquired some wealth, these days it does not seem to be enough.

I recently tried online dating, but the few women that responded to my requests seemed uneducated or too elderly. I don’t mind women in my age bracket or even 10 years younger than me, but these women were not the potential companions I was looking for. I’m physically and emotionally healthy, a normal weight, intelligent and hopefully interesting, and I want those qualities in a partner. This new trend of being unnoticed by women makes me a little concerned. I find myself dieting, going to the gym daily, even buying a new wardrobe. I want to enhance my mating power without losing the real me or trying too hard. I don’t want to come across as shallow or fake just to catch the attention of a good woman.

— Rob Dear Rob, It’s not shallow to want to be noticed by women and possibly find a life partner.

Encouraging your self-esteem and seeking a positive self-outlook isn’t superficial at all. I agree that you should not lose the real you by reinventing yourself just to find a wife. But it’s fine to present yourself well and look put together. Self-care can be a healthy expression and, if done in moderation, can be very attractive to a woman. Do whatever makes you feel happy, gives you confidence and supports your efforts to be the man you want to be. Do this for yourself, though, not just to please someone else.

It’s not uncommon in the arena of online dating for “women of a certain age” to ignore the profiles and photographs of “men of a certain age.” Make an effort to bring new faces into your life by participating in ongoing social gatherings, like classes or clubs, and welcome social introductions made by others. It’s also essential to keep an open mind. You don’t have to marry a woman to enjoy her company over coffee. She may be younger or older, less educated or have less money, and still end up being a meaningful friend.

In my psychotherapy practice, I’ve had a number of women share what triggers them positively and negatively when dating men. The following characteristics have more to do with inner character and heart than appearance or chronological age.

Women often talk about wanting a man who knows the difference between being loving and being needy. Loving someone is feeling secure and being aware of the other person’s needs and happiness as well as your own. Being insecurely attached or needy is obsessively thinking about how your own needs aren’t being fulfilled. When love feels good, worry and fear are minimized. Insecure attachments are constantly anxious and there’s a tendency to oblige the other person because of fears of abandonment.

Women like men who can stand up for themselves and their beliefs but who don’t cause a lot of drama, put excessive pressure on them, complain too much, or have too many problems. Women appreciate men who have their own lives (and whose lives are in relative order); know how to enjoy life; have their own interests, activities, and circle of friends; and are independent and emotionally mature.

Women want men who have their own purpose beyond being in a relationship.

They also appreciate men who are responsive and able to really listen to them and respond to the moment between them, rather than being distracted or zoning out.

There are a lot of great women out there looking for a stable relationship. But with or without a woman, you need to keep your sense of purpose, maintain close-knit bonds with others, live fully and vitally, and find a source of inspiration that is bigger than you. n Patti Carmalt-Vener, a faculty member with the Southern California Society for Intensive Short Term Psychotherapy, has been a psychotherapist in private practice for 23 years and has an office in Pasadena.

14TH ANNUAL LUMMIS DAYS FESTIVAL SPOTLIGHTS THE AMAZING ARTISTS OF NORTHEAST LA

BY CARL KOZLOWSKI

N

ortheast Los Angeles is home to one of the most vibrant and diverse arts scenes in the city, with a stunningly eclectic array of music, dance, poetry, film, theatre, art and puppeteers honing their crafts all year round. For the past 14 years, the threeday Lummis Days Festival has brought them all together for a free, fun-filled family-friendly celebration of artistic expression, with this year’s edition taking place Friday through Sunday at numerous locations.

“We’re really pleased to have some genre-busting artists performing with psychedelic folk music, cumbia-billy and Africanjazz fusion,” says Eliot Sekuler, the founder of the festival. “It helps mix things up and redefines the boundaries. It’s a great weekend of community-centered art and entertainment.”

Lummis Day takes its name from Charles Fletcher Lummis, who joined the LA Times as the newspaper’s first city editor in

1884. A prolific writer and photographer, Lummis was also one of the city’s first librarians, founded the Southwest Museum — the first museum in Los Angeles — and helped introduce the concept of multiculturalism to Southern California.

To that end, he preserved the old Spanish missions of Southern California, published a literary magazine called Land Of Sunshine/ Out West, and was an adviser to President Theodore Roosevelt.

He hand-built El Alisal, aka Lummis Home, one of Northeast LA’s most cherished cultural monuments, where he hosted a seminal art salon. Lummis was an ardent advocate for the rights of Native Americans, and was knighted by the King of Spain for his efforts to promote Spanish speaking peoples and cultures.

The community-organized event will build on the festival’s multicultural tradition with a pointedly eclectic mix of musical performances. In addition to crowd-pleasing Afro-Cuban (Ricardo CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

Over 20 musical acts will perform on Lummis Days’ stages at Sycamore Grove Park (Sunday) and Avenue 50 at York Boulevard (Saturday).

The 2019 festival will also feature an array of diverse dance performances, puppet shows, activities for kids, the Arroyo Arts Collective’s “Butterflies and Bees: Beyond Borders” puppet parade and, at Occidental College, a world festival premiere of the film “Con Safos: Reflections of Life in the Barrio.” The documentary chronicles the turbulent period from 1968 to 1972, in which the Lincoln Heights-based, eponymous literary magazine provided a platform for writers, poets, artists, cartoonists and photographers who captured the experiences of the barrio and the rumblings of the nascent Chicano movement.

The magazine resurfaced for four more issues in the 1990s before an FBI raid shut them down for good.

At Sycamore Grove Park, actors from the Independent Shakespeare Co. will perform scenes from best-loved plays in their signature audience-engaging style. The annual poetry reading at Lummis Home will feature acclaimed poet Sesshu Foster and will be followed by a free poetry workshop.

The following are the Festival’s locations, dates and activities: From 7 to 9:30 p.m. Friday at Thorne Hall, Occidental College (1600 Campus Road): The world festival premiere screening of “Con Safos: Reflections of Life in the Barrio,” will be followed by a discussion with the filmmakers and founders of the

groundbreaking Chicano magazine referenced in the film’s title.

From 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday on Avenue 50 at York Boulevard, Highland Park: Music on “The Boulevard Stage,” featuring four top Northeast LA indie bands and entertainment by cirque-style performers.

From 10:30 a.m. to noon Sunday at the Lummis Home in Montecito Heights: Poetry curated by Suzanne Lummis and featuring poets Sesshu Foster and Judith Terzi. From 12:30 to 2 p.m. a poetry workshop led by William Archila will follow the reading.

From noon to 7 p.m. Sunday at Sycamore Grove Park, 4702 N. Figueroa St.: Music, dance, theater, puppets, many family activities, community tables and food trucks.

In addition to the events organized by Lummis Days, the Autry Museum of the American West is presenting the California Art Club Paint/Sculpt-Out at the nearby Southwest Museum. California Art Club artists carry on the Arroyo Seco’s Plein Air tradition with an outdoor paint/sculpt-out to create works inspired by the Southwest Museum site’s views, history, and architecture. The event takes place Saturday and Sunday, June 1 and 2, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Two other exhibits — “Four Centuries of Pueblo Pottery” and “Making a Big Noise: The Explorations of Charles Lummis” - will also be on view. Admission is free. The Southwest Museum is open both days until 4 p.m. A shuttle bus provided by the office Los Angeles City Councilman Gill Cedillo will ferry guests between festival locations and parking sites on Sunday, June 2. n A complete schedule of events for all sites, parking information, and the location of shuttle bus stops will be found at lummisday. org.

JAKOB DYLAN AND ANDREW SLATER REVISIT THE LEGENDARY MID-’60S LAUREL CANYON MUSIC SCENE IN ‘ECHO IN THE CANYON’ associated with it, Joni Mitchell and the search for the individual,” says Slater, who considers that early period the “the age of innocence” of California rock. “But it’s really about the echo of those ideas and that creativity that gave birth to the music.”

During an interview he cites the culture-shifting circle of influence recounted in the film: Byrds frontman Roger McGuinn saw George Harrison playing a Rickenbacker 12-string, then got one himself and electrified folk music. Harrison heard the Byrds’ recording of Pete Seeger’s “The Bells of Rhymney” and wrote “If I Needed Someone” for the Beatles’ “Rubber Soul” album; Brian Wilson heard “Rubber Soul” and composed the Beach Boys’ “Pet Sounds”; and the Beatles heard “Pet Sounds” and created “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.”

“That exchange of ideas, right there, sets in motion the foundation for pop music, rock music, for the next 50 years,” Slater says.

“Then there’s the moment where Stephen Stills tells you he wrote this song ‘Questions’ because he heard a song of Judy Collins’ called ‘Since You Asked,’ and then Eric Clapton tells you that he heard ‘Questions’ and he wrote his first

single from his first record called ‘Let It Rain.’ While we all know that conversation that people have with themselves in their head when they’re trying to create something, the great thing about the film is that it lays it out, and the people who were actually creating this music are telling you that, and in a very personal way.”

“We were putting good poetry on the radio, pop radio,” David Crosby observes onscreen. Crosby contributes several choice bon mots (including the recordstraightening admission that he was kicked out of the Byrds for “being an asshole,” not his notorious drug abuse). He, Nash and Stills figure in some of the most engaging scenes, recalling Laurel Canyon’s neighborly vibe. Mamas and the Papas siren Michelle Phillips, the lone representative of Laurel Canyon’s women, tells some of the zestiest stories.

“What made Laurel Canyon cool is it wasn’t based around a club,” notes guitarist Fernando Perdomo, who as a kid was so “obsessed” with Buffalo Springfield and CSN&Y that he recorded himself playing a “mock concert” of Neil Young songs. He accompanies Dylan in the film and appreciates how the story is told from the musi–CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

“E

cho in the Canyon,” the big-hearted documentary from ex-Capitol Records CEO Andrew Slater and Jakob Dylan covering Laurel Canyon’s legendary music community circa 1964-1967, opens with musicians bantering about Rickenbacker guitars, whose jangly sound revolutionized 1960s pop. The artists in question are Jakob Dylan and Tom Petty (in his last film interview), and their camaraderie sets the tone for Dylan’s subsequent interviews with Jackson Browne, Eric Clapton, David Crosby, Roger McGuinn, Graham Nash, Michelle Phillips, John Sebastian, Ringo Starr, Stephen Stills, and Brian Wilson, who are visibly more relaxed conversing with a fellow artist than fielding questions from some DocumentaryLand talking head.

Dylan and Petty’s exchange also underscores Slater’s essential point that the film is “more about the echo than the canyon” — an echo still reverberating throughout musician and songwriter communities of Laurel, Beachwood and Topanga Canyons, Eagle Rock and Highland Park.

“The film celebrates Laurel Canyon in the beginning, before the onset of psychedelia and the singer-songwriter era that’s most

SOUNDS FROM THE HEART CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18 cians’ perspective. “Laurel Canyon was a social network. All these people would just gather at each other’s houses and say, ‘Hey, what are you up to?

Listen to this song I just wrote.’”

“Echo in the Canyon” strives to show that music’s legacy in action, with concert performances by Dylan and guests Fiona Apple (a powerful “In My Room”), Beck, Cat Power, Regina Spektor, and a sunny Jade Castrinos.

They aren’t all obvious Laurel Canyon offspring, but their affection for the material is evident, and the house band (Perdomo, harmony singer Justine Bennett, guitarists Erik Paparozzi and Geoff Pearlman, bassist Dan Rothchild, keyboardist Jordan Summers, and drummer Matt Tecu) fully commits to ’60s playing styles.

Slater, a respected producer for Dylan’s band the Wallflowers and Apple, among others, initially planned to make a record. Then he saw Jacques Demy’s 1969 film “Model Shop,” set in LA, and was unexpectedly inspired to revisit places he loved and music that drew him here.

“Inside those songs were stories about whatever was going on, so I wanted to find that, and find out what life was like,” he recalls. His project swiftly evolved into a film centered around the trade of creative ideas between Laurel Canyon’s artists.

Their community has been as essential to Laurel Canyon’s myth as their widely beloved music. Songwriters jamming in each other’s kitchens, writing of their love triangles … it’s reminiscent of painters in 19th-century Paris. Do such productive enclaves demand geographic proximity?

“Virtual community exists, because that’s how people are communicating and interacting,” Slater says. “But I still say that to play music, more often than not it’s about communicating through an instrument with other people in the room. And that exchange of notes, ideas, verse, is the thing that becomes the soundtrack to our lives. That’s happening everywhere [although] the bridge to that stuff becoming a national or a mainstream culture movement may be broken.”

“Music happens at a particular moment in time, and changes everything going forward,” Jackson Browne says in the film. Producer Lou Adler entertainingly compares the Laurel Canyon scene to 1940s movie stars, who they tried to emulate. Petty, to whom the film is dedicated, opines that dreamers are allowed in LA “because people believe it might be possible to do something that’s not ordinary.”

The most telling moment, one that crystallizes the film’s intent and the threads of community binding musicians across generations, occurs in a studio. As Phillips listens to playback of Dylan’s recording of a Mamas and the Papas song, he quietly watches her emotional response. It is a sweet scene, warm and sincere, and their mutual gratitude expresses all that needs to be said. n See film listings for theater and showtime information.

‘ROCKETMAN’ OFFERS AN EMOTIONALLY POWERFUL AND HUGELY ENTERTAINING LOOK AT THE LIFE OF ELTON JOHN

CAPSULE REVIEWS

BY CARL KOZLOWSKI

MA

Stars: Octavia Spencer, Diana Silvers, Juliette Lewis Length: 99 minutes Directed by: Tate Taylor Rating: R The latest comedic horror film from the usually reliable Blumhouse (“Get Out,” “Split”) stars Oscarwinner Octavia Spencer as a mysterious small-town woman who invites teens to party in her house on the edge of town, but turns out to have malevolent intentions. The first half is pretty fun, but the last half hour’s logic collapses and the film becomes an ugly mess.

Grade: D

JOHN WICK 3: PARABELLUM

Stars: Keanu Reeves Length: 131 minutes Directed by: Chad Stahelski Rating: R The third time’s the charm, as Reeves returns as the world’s greatest hitman, dashing across New York while fighting off seemingly hundreds of assassins eager to take him down for a $14 million bounty. You really don’t even have to know the prior two films in the series to understand this – the movie has nearly wall to wall, brutal but nonetheless funny action.

Grade: A

BOOKSMART

F

ew rock stars have had as big an impact on the world stage as Elton John, who has had more than 50 Top 40 hits and sold 300 million records since breaking out nearly 50 years ago. He’s also had a life story that few can match, with epic battles with sex, drugs and alcohol along the way to worldwide fame and fortune before finally finding true love and sobriety in the early 1990s.

The new film “Rocketman” depicts a surprisingly unflinching portrayal of these struggles, with Taron Egerton of “The Kingsmen” spy comedies delivering a stunning performance as the musical legend. Following on the heels of the massive success of “Bohemian Rhapsody” and its depiction of Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury’s similarly troubled life, it hopefully will help build a trend of more musical biopics.

The movie opens with the stunning visual of a bloated, middle-aged Elton John (Taron Egerton) wearing an elaborate red devil costume with horns on his head and feathered wings. Writer Pete Bell and director Dexter Fletcher (who took over the troubled production of “Rhapsody”) aren’t setting up a celebration of devilish excess, however.

Rather, Elton is entering an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, and his devil costume is a symbol of how corrupted he feels inside, openly admitting that he’s a sex addict, drug addict, alcoholic and bulimic. Moments later, he sees a vision of himself as a five-year-old boy (with his birth name of Reginald Dwight), and as he starts singing one of his classic pop songs, Elton busts out of the meeting with his fellow addicts and group leader running behind, dancing through the streets of his childhood.

This dazzling opening has the silly charm and rock and roll energy of the classic musical “Grease,” and it establishes quickly that this will be no ordinary biopic. Hall and Fletcher have conceived a musical fantasy style for the movie, which bounces back and forth between the anguished confessions Elton makes in his group meeting and various periods of his childhood and adult rise to fame.

The core emotional impact of the movie lies in Elton’s quest for love, as heartbreakingly shown as his 10-year-old self sings his lateperiod ballad “I Want Love” after his emotionally distant father tells him not to tap his fingers on the family dinner table. In a brilliant move, each family member including his father, his condescending and careless mother, and his saintly grandmother sings a verse, revealing the inner pain that made them turn out the way they are.

Salvation comes in the form of music, as young Reginald is seen 24 PASADENA WEEKLY | 05.30.19

playing classical masterpieces by ear from age 5, with his grandma encouraging his artistry all the way to receiving a scholarship from the Royal Academy of Music. As he learns to properly compose, he is told by a record executive that he should put lyrics to his beautiful tunes — but he can’t think of anything to say.

The exec hands him an envelope full of songwriter Bernie Taupin’s lyrics and tells him try to write music for them. Thus, a 50-year magical partnership is born, with the heterosexual Bernie (Jamie Bell) providing the platonic love and acceptance that Reginald (who renames himself Elton John after a bandmate named Elton and John Lennon) never had before.

That friendship gives him newfound confidence, and soon they are on a rapid rise to worldwide fame and fortune. But Elton finds that material wealth doesn’t bring happiness, as he can’t seem to find a strong relationship while his fellow homosexual manager (Richard Madden) lures him into an affair that’s manipulative and shallow.

Continually rejected by his parents no matter how successful he becomes, Elton falls into a horrible cocaine and alcohol addiction.

Through another of the movie’s innovative musical fantasies, Elton is seen symbolically engaged in a life of drug-fueled orgies that only end when he winds up overdosing and in need of rehab. From there, he has to find the way to true forgiveness, happiness and love.

As Elton, Egerton (“Eggsy” in “The Kingsman” movies) does a phenomenal job, setting himself up for an Oscar to match the one given to actor Rami Malek for his portrayal of Freddie Mercury in “Rhapsody.”

His performance is an emotional rollercoaster of extreme highs and lows, but is always underpinned by a heartbreaking wish for true acceptance and love.

Jamie Bell as Bernie Taupin is also outstanding, and the movie’s depiction of their friendship is an excellent example of brotherly love that stands true through myriad crises. With 20 of Elton John’s greatest hits used in endlessly inventive musical numbers, the film is incredibly entertaining as well as a deeply emotional experience.

While much hype has been made of the fact that “Rocketman” sought an R rating and depicts Elton in gay sex scenes, the movie is actually pretty discreet and brief with these portrayals. Like “Rhapsody,” this is a film that teens and adults can easily enjoy together. n

“ROCKETMAN”: A

Stars: Beanie Feldstein, Kaitlyn Dever Length: 102 minutes Directed by: Olivia Wilde Rating: R This gender-flipped ripoff of 2007’s smash hit “Superbad” follows two brainiac girls trying to experience four years of partying in their final night before graduation. The actors are appealing talents mired in a cesspool of terrible behavior that is not only clichéd by now but tries to shred the envelope of good taste. Opening weekend bombed, so it’s clear that thankfully kids these days don’t relate to this. Grade: D

THE BIGGEST LITTLE FARM

Stars: John Chester, Molly Chester Length: 91 minutes Directed by: John Chester Rating: PG This documentary focusing on a real-life couple who gave up cramped living in Santa Monica to restore seemingly dead land in Ventura County, and the eight-year process that resulted in a modern-day Garden of Eden, is absolutely riveting and stunning to behold. Highly recommended for the whole family.

Stars: Charlize Theron, Seth Rogen, O’Shea Jackson Length: 130 minutes Directed by: Jonathan Levine Rating: R This romantic comedy has a lot more on its mind than the usual genre film, as Theron plays the US Secretary of State who hires Rogen – a journalist who’s been in love with her since junior high – as her speechwriter. As they travel the world facing both funny and serious crises, a smart romance that also deals with issues of personal ethics and compromise in a profound way unfolds. This is my favorite movie of the year so far.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE TS No.CA-18-841828-RY Order No.: 180462687-CA-VOI YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 7/22/2005. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): K PATRICK STAPLETON II A MARRIED MAN AS HIS SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY Recorded: 7/26/2005 as Instrument No. 05 1763494 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of LOS ANGELES County, California; Date of Sale: 6/6/2019 at 10:00 AM Place of Sale: Behind the fountain located in Civic Center Plaza, located at 400 Civic Center Plaza, Pomona CA 91766 Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $205,841.03 The purported property address is: 875 N WILSON AVE, PASADENA, CA 91104 Assessor’s Parcel No.: 5732-005-037 NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-9390772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-18-841828-RY. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy.
