POLITICIANS & WAR With every passing year, politicians grow more confident in their ability to thrust Americans into another war, to make decisions that benefit themselves and not their constituents, and to increase their profits as the average American can hardly scrape by.

Few politicians take a stand against this, to what has become the norm, and when they do, the mainstream media will either smear them or not cover them at all. It takes a soldierpresident to reverse this course. Fortunately, we have such a candidate right now.

Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard recently kicked off her presidential campaign in Waikiki. A major in the Army National Guard, Gabbard, 37, did two tours of duty in the Middle East before being elected to Congress in 2012. She drew on that experience during her announcement.

“These powerful politicians dishonor the sacrifices made by every one of my brothers and sisters in uniform and their families, as they are the ones who pay the prices of these wars,” she said.

During her time in Congress, Gabbard has taken the now rare position of calling out and opposing the United States’ interventionist military policies. Gabbard further expressed that “every American pays the price for these wars that cost us trillions of dollars since 9/11.”

Tulsi Gabbard has a history of taking a stand. In 2016 she resigned from her position as vice chair of the Democratic National NEWS

Committee to endorse Bernie Sanders, as the establishment Democrats and the mainstream media made an orchestrated attempt to push their candidate of choice, Hillary Clinton. It would seem history repeats itself. CNN has already effectively endorsed Kamala Harris, providing her with favorable coverage and a primetime town hall event.

Over the years I’ve learned it’s best to fi rst follow the money. Harris’ largest donor is Warner Media Group, the parent company of CNN. Tulsi Gabbard is a unique 2020 presidential candidate who is not taking corporate PAC money to fund her campaign. That means all of her funding must come from the people.

I was 11 years old when John F. Kennedy delivered his inaugural address. His speech had a profound impact on my life when several years later I would volunteer to join the Marine Corps. Gabbard turned to those inspiring words when she said this: “I ask you to join me, in this spirit of putting service before self, to stand up against the forces of greed and

corruption. Kennedy once said, ‘Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.’ We must heed his call to action today, at this critical time in our history. We must stand up and fight for the soul of our country.”

It is clear that we, as a nation, have forgotten the core principles of what America was meant to be. Gabbard’s words and deeds as a soldier and elected representative offer a glimmer of hope that she might be the right leader to help us all rediscover what it means to be an American.

“When we raise our right hand and volunteer to serve, we set aside our own interests to serve our country, to fight for all Americans. It is this principle of service above self, that is at the heart of every soldier.

At the heart of every service member.” She continued, “I will bring this soldier’s principles to the White House, restoring the values of dignity, honor and respect to the presidency and above all else, love for our people and love for our country.” ~ BILL PAPARIAN PASADENA

•GUEST OPINION•

BY EARL OFARI HUTCHINSON

WEAPONS OF CHOICE WOULD IMPEACHMENT HELP RE-ELECT PRESIDENT TRUMP?

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi seems to be of two minds.

Pelosi has repeatedly said no to the idea of impeaching President Trump. She gravely warns that Trump is goading the opposition into impeaching him because he sees this as his ticket back to the White House in 2020. Impeachment, he believes, will fi re up his base by allowing him to go into full-blown victim mode.

But Pelosi then pivots and says that Trump must be held accountable. That seems to imply that impeachment is still on her agenda.

The question that Pelosi correctly zeroes Nancy Pelosi in on as other Democrats hound her to get the impeachment show on the road is this: Will a House impeachment gambit help or hurt Trump more than it helps or hurts the Democrats?

Polls show that, much like the House of Representatives itself, there are a lot of people who believe impeachment is a bad idea for Democrats. Polls also show that independents, who will be a big factor in the presidential election, also don’t really like the idea, even though a lot of them don’t like Trump.

Trump can take his cues from what happened with President Bill Clinton.

Clinton was impeached by the then-GOP-controlled House, but the thenDemocrat-controlled Senate didn’t convict, and Clinton’s popularity numbers soared. If Clinton could have run for a third term in 2000 he almost certainly would have been re-elected.

The issue must be framed this way for two practical reasons. One, impeachment will be almost exclusively a Democratic show in the House, since almost no House Republicans would ever back the effort. The other reason is that the GOP-controlled Senate would never vote to convict. So, if it’s a strictly partisan effort, it comes off as nothing more than a political stunt, or at best an empty gesture done purely to satisfy progressive Democrats.

But what about the Democrats who hail from districts populated by anything but progressives? More than a handful of new House Democrats come from those districts, which are full of Republicans, independents, and centrist Democrats who want nothing to do with an impeachment move by their representatives.

Such a battle would cause undue strain and give the GOP an opening to take back some of the seats they lost in 2018.

However, here’s the reason why Pelosi is walking a tightrope on impeachment.

A compelling case can be made that going after Trump with impeachment will energize Democrats. But would it actually do that? This is not a small concern, given that the Democratic presidential candidate field is way overloaded, with all of them struggling to fi nd a unifying message that will stir enough Democrats to storm the polls in 2020. Is impeachment, with Democrats showing they aren’t afraid to fight for a principle despite the risks, that message?

Pro-impeachment Democrats got a big boost when Special Counsel Robert Mueller implied that Trump had committed crimes, and that if not for the legal constraints of going after a sitting president he could have been indicted. Mueller punted but in the process practically invited Congress to go after Trump through the only means at its disposal, and that’s impeachment. At least, that’s the way a lot of Democrats are reading Mueller’s report, Pelosi among them. This is what’s behind her saying that he must be held accountable. But does being held accountable mean impeachment?

The best bet for Democrats is booting Trump out of the White House at the polls. It won’t be easy. He will have a united GOP behind him, a king’s ransom in campaign cash, the fawning attention of mainstream media, his Twitter bully pulpit, and the appearance of a bustling economy to crow about. The worst thing to do now is to give him yet another weapon. Clearly Trump sees impeachment as that weapon. Many Democrats don’t. But if they’re wrong, it will help re-elect him. ■ Earl Ofari Hutchinson is a political analyst and author of “The Impeachment of President Trump?” (Amazon Kindle).

US DISTRICT JUDGE MANUEL REAL, WHO ORDERED BUSING IN PASADENA SCHOOLS IN 1970, DIES AT AGE 95

JUSTICE IN NUMBERS HIGH COURT BARS CITIZENSHIP QUESTION FROM APPEARING ON US CENSUS FORMS

BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

T

he US Supreme Court ruled last week that the Trump administration cannot include a question about citizenship on the 2020 US Census form — for now.

The controversy surrounds the administration’s plans to include the question, “Is this person a citizen of the United States?”

Critics claim including the question could keep Latinos and other minorities from filling out the census, resulting in urban communities losing millions of dollars in federal funds and congressional seats.

In a 5-4 ruling made along partisan lines, the deeply divided court ruled that while the government has the right to ask a citizenship question, it needs to justify its inclusion in the census.

Siding with the court’s four liberal justices, Chief Justice John

Roberts said that there was sufficient reason for concern about why the US Commerce Department wanted to add the question.

“The sole stated reason seems to have been contrived,” Roberts wrote for the majority. “We are presented, in other words, with an explanation for agency action that is incongruent with what the record reveals about the agency’s priorities and decision making process.”

The Trump administration has claimed that the question was added to collect more detailed citizenship data to better enforce part of the Voting Rights Act. After the June 27 ruling, President Trump called for a delay to the census until his lawyers could get more information about the question for future court proceedings.

“Can anyone really believe that as a great country, we are not

The day before US Sen. Kamala Harris slammed former Vice President Joe Biden in the Democratic presidential debate for his past positions against busing, US Central District Senior Judge Manuel Real Manuel L. Real, the man who forced the Pasadena Unified School District to implement busing, died at age 95.

A cause of death was not immediately known. No memorial plans have been announced.

Real’s controversial ruling was decided by the US Supreme Court and eventually came to define actions taken by school districts all over California in efforts to address a racial exclusion crisis occurring in public schools.

“I am sad beyond words at the death of our beloved friend, colleague, mentor and leader,” said US Central Court Chief Judge Virginia A. Phillips in a prepared statement.

“Judge Real has been the heart and soul of our district since it was formed in 1966 and his passing leaves an unfillable void for us, his family, the legal world and the larger community,” Phillips wrote. “His legacy of public service is an inspiration beyond compare.”

On Jan. 20, 1970, Real ruled that the Pasadena Unified School District could not discriminate based on race and ordered that, “Commencing in September of 1970, there shall be no school in the District elementary or junior high or senior high school, with a majority of any minority students.”

The ruling came in response to a lawsuit filed by local residents Jim and Bobbie Spangler, Wilton and Dorothy Clarke and Skipper and Pat Rostker.

According to a 2007 article written by PW Editor Kevin Uhrich, racial issues in Pasadena went beyond segregation. The American Nazi Party had set up shop in nearby El Monte and the Southern-based White Citizens Council, a group whose members belonged to the Ku Klux Klan, tried to establish a foothold in Pasadena.

In 1968 — the year that both Martin Luther King Jr. and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated — the Spanglers, along with the Rostkers and Clarkes, filed the federal lawsuit.

CITY REACHES PENULTIMATE STAGE OF MINIMUM RAISE INCREASE

BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

Pasadena’s minimum wage increased to $14.25 on Sunday, but local officials and business owners remain deeply divided on the impact of the city’s minimum wage.

Some business owners claim the increases have had Paul Little significant negative impacts on employment opportunities for people at the lower end of the pay scale.

According to Pasadena Chamber of Commerce CEO Paul Little, fewer business owners are hiring teenagers during the summer due to the wage increase. Increasing the minimum wage was opposed by members of the chamber, who favored smaller pay hikes. Under that proposal, minimum wage would have increased to $12.50 by 2020, and then stopped there.

“Those who hire minimum-wage workers have cut back on hiring, reduced their workforce and demanded a higher level of skill and experience from people who are hired,” Little told the Pasadena Weekly. “We are also likely to see more places close as profitability becomes more and more difficult.”

But Jon Pollard, Pasadena’s code compliance manager, who visits hundreds of Pasadena businesses every year, said so far he has not seen much negative impact.

“I don’t think the city would say there have been any negative impacts based on the minimum wage increase,” Pollard said. “This is just me speaking, but I think it would be very hard to parse the reason for a business closing. Restaurants have a famously high closure rate in the first year.”

In February, the Pasadena City Council reviewed the impacts of the minimum wage increases on reducing poverty, unemployment, job creation, and the overall business climate and voted to increase it to $14.25 this year and $15 in 2020.

Beginning July 1, 2022 the local hourly wage will be adjusted annually by an amount equal to the expected increase in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County consumer price index for urban wage earners and clerical workers.

But even at $15 an hour, it’s almost impossible for single minimum wage earners to live in Pasadena.

The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Pasadena has risen more than 51.7 percent in the past six years, with rents on some one-bedroom apartments totaling well over $2,000 a month. n

BREEDERS’ CUP OFFICIALS VOTE TO KEEP RACE AT SANTA ANITA DESPITE FATALITIES

BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN

Despite injuries that have forced Santa Anita Park officials to Craig Fravel euthanize 30 horses since December, Breeders’ Cup board members said they would not move the race to Churchill Downs in Kentucky.

The announcement came after the Breeders’ Cup’s 14-member board unanimously voted to keep its Nov. 1-2 championship races at the Arcadia racetrack.

“Foremost among the core values of the Breeders’ Cup are the safety and integrity of the competition and we hold ourselves, our host sites and our competitors to the highest standards of both,” Craig Fravel, president and CEO of the Breeders’ Cup, said in a prepared statement. “It is clear that meaningful and effective reforms and best practices have been implemented in recent months at Santa Anita through the collective efforts of The Stronach Group (owners of the track), the Thoroughbred Owners of California, the California Thoroughbred Trainers, and the California Horse Racing Board.”

Members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) praised the decision, primarily because more horses have died at Churchill Downs than at Santa Anita.

“Who could possibly have thought that it was a good idea to move the Breeders’ Cup from a track that is trying to stop the carnage to one with an even more shameful record of fatalities?” said PETA Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo. “The Breeders’ Cup board made the right decision. Now, it should disallow trainers with multiple medication violations from all races.”

According to a report in USA Today, Churchill Downs does not publicly disclose its racing fatalities, but a spokesman for the track confirmed figures obtained through a public records request of the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission.

Those records show that 43 horses were euthanized due to racing injuries since 2016, a 2.42 per 1,000-start average that was 50 percent higher than the national average during the same three-year span.

The deaths have rocked officials at Santa Anita. The park closed in March after the 21st horse died and put new safety protocols in place, including banning race day medication, increasing transparency of veterinary records, further regulating approval for workouts, and increasing reviews of the track’s surface.

Some experts believe the injuries have been caused by an extra hard track created in response to this year’s above average rainfall.

Earlier this week California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law a bill that gives the the California Horse Racing Board the power to suspend racing at any time should it see a safety issue for horses and riders. Newsom also added a veterinarian to the board. n 8 PASADENA WEEKLY | 07.04.19

able to ask whether or not someone is a citizen.

Only in America!” Trump posted on Twitter.

An undercount could be devastating for those areas. Population counts from the 2020 census will be used to determine how many congressional seats and Electoral College votes each state gets for the next decade. The data will also be used to help distribute nearly $900 billion in federal funding for such things as schools, roads and other public services.

Pasadena and several other cities have been encouraging residents to participate in the census.

Those cities have formed what are being called Complete Count Committees (CCCs) which seek out immigrant communities and encourage residents to participate in the census.

Pasadena Mayor Terry Tornek, who chairs the local CCC, told the Pasadena Weekly that he was pleased and excited about the ruling.

“We’ve already had a couple of meetings ,” Tornek said. “We are very concerned, because we know we were undercounted last time. It is much more daunting because of the climate of fear surrounding the census. We were desperately worried about this question. We have our hands full already and that was going to make it more challenging. I am excited. We allocated city funds, and have funds coming through the county. We have started lining up people and resources to get an accurate count.”

Locally, the census is used to adjust and sometimes redraw local City Council and Pasadena Unified School District boundaries to ensure that the city is complying with federal voting rights laws.

“We hope the federal government avoids taking any action that could dissuade residents from participating in the census count and adversely affect federal funding for vital services and programs they rely on,” said City Manager Steve Mermell. “City staff and community volunteers are undertaking efforts to support the work of the Census Bureau and achieve as accurate a count as possible for Pasadena.”

In 1993, census data led to local political district lines being redrawn to create a district which increased voting opportunities for primarily Latino residents living in an enclave which later became District 5. This was an area of the city which the 1990 census revealed was 27 percent Latino.

“Here in our city, we have been working to ensure that all of our residents, the youngest to the oldest, are counted in the census, and the inclusion of the citizenship question would have presented a significant barrier to full participation,” said Vannia De La Cuba, field representative for District 5 Councilman Victor Gordo. “Today’s SCOTUS decision was an important victory for all of us. An undercount would hurt all communities because the census data are crucial to ensuring equitable distribution of federal funds for a wide range of vital programs, including many programs that provide

services for our community here in Pasadena.”

The case was sent back to a New York court for further explanation from the administration, but officials with the Census Bureau claimed they needed to start printing the census forms by July 1.

Federal judges there and in Maryland and California have already ruled against the administration’s proposal.

“This is an incredibly hopeful decision,” said Rector Mike Kinman of All Saints Church, which has vehemently opposed Trump’s immigration policy and vowed to open its doors as a sanctuary for those who fear deportation during immigration raids.

“A question has been effectively denied from the census that would result in taxation without representation for countless people of color, many of whom are part of our community. At least this morning, fear lost and justice won at the highest court in the land.”

Kinman also pointed out that the decision in an example of how the nation is supposed to work.

“The Judicial Branch recognized that the Executive Branch was trying to manipulate the Constitution for its own political ends and very clearly called it out and denied it that chance.”

Six of the bureau’s former directors, who have served under both Democratic and Republican administrations, have warned that adding the citizenship question would jeopardize the accuracy of the population count.

The Trump administration has maintained that the question was added to collect more detailed citizenship data to enforce part of the Voting Rights Act. The district court judges concluded that was not the real reason for the administration’s lastminute push for adding the question.

In May, the daughter of deceased Republican operative Thomas Hofeller revealed that in 2015 Hofeller conducted a private study and concluded that a citizenship question would decrease the political power of Latinos and “be advantageous to Republicans and Non-Hispanic Whites” in the redistricting process.

Hofeller also surmised that employing citizenship data derived from the census would “provoke a high degree of resistance from Democrats and the major minority groups in the nation.”

Hofeller later urged the Trump administration to adopt the question and worked with the administration to help craft its public legal argument that the Census Bureau needed citizenship data to better enforce the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Federal judges in California, New York and Maryland are aware of those documents along with the Supreme Court, according to the New Yorker.

“If judicial review is to be more than an empty ritual, it must demand something better than the explanation offered for the action taken in this case,” Chief Justice Roberts wrote. n

PASADENA CELEBRATES THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE APOLLO 11 LUNAR LANDING

BY JANA J. MONJI

I

n July, there will be many opportunities to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing.

NASA already has program lessons posted online for young students, some featuring that intrepid beagle Snoopy who has a long association with NASA. Online and on TV, PBS will begin its Summer of Space with new documentaries premiering as well as space-related encores. Two special screenings and celebrations will also help commemorate that one giant leap for mankind. As the NASA logo suggests, all are looking toward the Next Giant Leap.

From July 5 to Aug. 11, the Rose Bowl will host a new 360-degree adventure, “Apollo 11: The Immersive Live Show,” which will feature an original story performed by a 20-member ensemble inside a “Lunar Dome” containing 40,000 square feet of video projections that take visitors from the launch of the enormous Saturn V rocket to the moon. The Apollo 11 presentation features life-sized rockets and expects to perform in 18 cities across the US for the next three years.

For more information, visit RoseBowlStadium.com.

Beginning on Monday, PBS’s “American Experience” features the three-part series “Chasing the Moon,” answering questions about being an astronaut. It also looks at diversity and sexism during the days of the Apollo mission, while reminding us of the period’s tumultuous political backdrop.

Part One, “A Place Beyond the Sky,” features CBS Evening News Anchorman Walter Cronkite and other journalists describing how they attempted to bring what was essentially a “radio story” of disembodied voices with no visuals to the American public. The race to beat the Russians to the moon started under President John F. Kennedy, but Apollo 11 reached the moon under President Richard M. Nixon.

Part Two on July 9, “Earthrise,” reveals a not-so-hidden figure, Frances “Poppy” Northcutt, and the tale of the first African-American astronaut candidate, Ed Dwight. To get the public behind the race to the moon, astronauts were used for public relations purposes. Although it was 20 years before an African American would make it into space, Dwight, now a sculptor, raised the hopes of people around the world.

At 25, Northcutt, was not an astronaut, but she still gained fame as the first woman in NASA’s flight control room.

“What I remember most about Apollo 11 is that it was so very normal,” Northcutt recalled in a recent telephone interview. “When you’re simulating and planning for missions, you’re dealing with things that have gone wrong. The most surprising thing about Apollo 11 was almost everything was going right.” As a contractor with TRW, Northcutt said, “All women at the time were swimming in the sea of sexism,” and while it still exists, “it’s “not as murky as it was then,” Being the only woman had some advantages, Northcutt admitted.

“I got a lot of attention at the time, and even more attention now, 50 years later,” she said.

Recently, Northcutt got a call from the Brazilian consulate in Houston, where she lives. She left TRW in 1984 to become an attorney and a civil rights advocate.

During the Apollo missions, a little girl in Brazil was inspired by Northcutt and eventually grew up to become Dr. Rosaly M.C. Lopes, a senior research scientist at JPL and the editor-in-chief for the planetary science journal Icarus.

As a pre-teen in Rio de Janeiro, “I grew up crazy about the Apollo program,” Lopes recalled. “Being Brazilian and a girl with terrible eyesight, I was not going to make it as an astronaut. Every time I saw anything about the Apollo program, it was all men.”

Northcutt had helped to calculate the trajectory of the problemCONTINUED ON PAGE 10

plagued Apollo 13 mission. Lopes clipped small articles about her appearing in two Brazilian newspapers. “I became so inspired,” Lopes said.

Although those articles have long been lost, and Lopes remembers them as being sexist, Lopes searched for Northcutt over the years because Northcutt was “like a beacon.”

A casual conversation with a writer brought the two into contact and Northcutt will meet with Lopes this month at JPL. Northcutt noted one of the reasons she left TRW was budget cuts. The race to the moon was won, but society had changed.

Part Three of “Chasing the Moon,” “Magnificent Desolation,” takes its title from Buzz Aldrin as both his description of the lunar surface and the title of his second autobiography. After Apollo 11, the astronauts were no longer heroes. During his public relations tours, Frank Borman (Apollo 8 and Gemini 7) recalled going to Cornell campus was “like going into an enemy camp.” Protests against Vietnam labeled [President] Nixon a war criminal, but there were also some questionable figures working at NASA such as ex-SS officer Wernher von Braun.

While most of the action for Apollo 11 was away from the Pasadena area, JPL did have a role leading up to the Apollo program. JPL developed two robotic series of spacecraft: the Rangers and the Surveyors. The Rangers were like the safety crash test part of the moon landing program. The Rangers were meant to intentionally collide into the moon and provide images of the surface and the approaching impact. Ranger 7 was the first to work properly, hitting the moon on July 31, 1964.

Two more would evemtually reach the moon.

The seven robotic Surveyors were “soft landers” and the first vehicles to operate on the moon. They provided information about the strength and composition of the lunar surface (1966-68). Apollo 12 astronauts brought back Surveyor 3’s camera in 1969. The information from these two spacecraft series helped the Eagle land. Once the Eagle that landed on the moon returned to Earth, Caltech raced to analyze the lunar samples and answer questions about the moon’s composition for scientists and researchers around the world.

JPL and Caltech will be hosting two free panels. JPL documentarian Blaine Baggett will speak on the Ranger and Surveyor missions, former JPL Chief Scientist Arden Albee will talk about lunar samples, and former JPL Chief Engineer John Casani will talk about JPL and Caltech’s role in supporting the lunar landing.

Moderated by JPL Science Communications Specialist Preston Dyches, the free 90-minute lectures, “Moon Struck! Celebrating Apollo’s 50th Anniversary,” are at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 11 at The Von Kármán Auditorium at JPL (4800 Oak Grove Drive, Pasadena) and at 7 p.m. Friday, July 12, at Caltech’s Ramo Auditorium (1200 E. California Blvd. Pasadena). No reservations or tickets are required.

On Monday, July 15, the California Science Center will open a special giantscreen edition of Todd Douglas Miller’s “Apollo 11” documentary on the immersive 7-story IMAX screen. The center will host a special day-long event on July 20, with exhibits of Gemini and Apollo space capsules, Apollo era space suits, a Ranger space craft and a lunar sample. JPL will be onsite with a custom portable planetarium, a special live, interactive and immersive presentation about space science complete with an expert to answer questions. For more information, visit CaliforniaScienceCenter.org.

Now, as the 50th anniversary logo signifies by including the moon and Mars, NASA astronauts will return to the moon but in preparation for a trip to Mars. The first woman and the next man are scheduled to make a moon landing in 2024. JPL, with its Rover program, has already been paving the way and will be providing even more information about Mars with its Rover 2020.

PBS’s “Nova” premieres a five-part series, “The Planets,” on July 24 (Check local listings). A press preview of its Mars episode included JPL’s Deputy Project Scientist Leslie Tamppari, MSL Project Scientist Ashwin R. Vasavada and John P. Grotzinger, Caltech’s Fletcher Jones Professor of Geology.

By remembering the last Giant Leap, you can prepare for the Next Giant Leap from the moon to Mars and Pasadena will be an essential part of that exciting new chapter in space. ■ 10 PASADENA WEEKLY | 07.04.19

t is incredible how cyclical life can be. Last June I wrote about the then newly opened Piencone Pizzeria in Eagle Rock, a spot I have revisited several times since, which has undergone its own evolution. Nearly a year later, the team behind Piencone and Four Cafe have furthered their conquest of the Eagle Rock stretch of Colorado Boulevard by opening up a third restaurant — Penny Oven.

The through line at all of Chef Michelle Wilton’s Eagle Rock eateries is family. Four Cafe, the first-born of the trio and open since 2009, is a sandwich, burger and salad joint all based around organic and sustainable, locally grown ingredients. Essentially, it’s like a farmers’ market where one person took all the best ingredients from the stands and made a fast-casual menu from all of it. Tables are adorned with mason jars holding napkins, or serving as small buckets of silverware.

Wilton’s middle child, Piencone, opened in 2018 and is the rebel of the trio.

The pizza, pub, and ice cream shop was the anti-Shakey’s and a godsend to parents who missed eating at restaurants that didn’t use vinyl sheeting as tablecloths. With their elevated wood-fired pizzas and an entire dining room dedicated to families with a play area and ample room for movement for squirrely little ones to roam, families are able to enjoy a regular meal.

Fulfilling the stereotype of the youngest child, Penny Oven takes the

best features of the older siblings and some special qualities and melds them into a new persona. (Full disclosure: I am the youngest child in my family.)

Penny Oven continues the same wood aesthetic as its elder siblings. From Four Cafe, Penny Oven takes on baked goods and breakfast. From Piencone, it carries over the wood-fired oven. But because it had to set itself apart from its elders Penny Oven could not just have a plain wood-fired oven. Taking it one level further, and true to its name, it is covered in thousands of real pennies.

Perhaps as an homage to Piencone, Penny Oven also has a play area for little ones so that parents may enjoy their coffee while their children play in the small nook underneath the staircase.

Penny Oven is building its own identity with breakfast, coffee and lunches. Keeping that home style feeling that sets Wilton’s family of restaurants apart, nearly everything on the menu is made inhouse, from all of the breads to the almond milk used in the coffee, it is all created right there.

It is not a coffee and laptop, get-work-done cafe.

Instead, it's more of a casual date cafe, or a spot for the couple in their mid-30s that reminisces about the days of bottomless mimosa brunches yet now have their toddlers in tow.

Effortlessly simple, Penny Oven’s menu is broken down into the refreshingly noncomplex categories of toasts, sweets, plates, sides, and kids. There is also a bakery display case filled with an everchanging assortment of baked goods to ponder over and test your self-control as you wait in line.

One highlight is the toast menu does not feature avocado toast or any variation of the millennial kryptonite. Rather, Penny Oven does some more adventurous takes on their homemade breads. The croque toast ($10) comes with mushrooms, spinach, caramelized leeks and bechamel sauce.

The croissant sandwich ($8) takes the iconic donut store ham and cheese croissant flavors, sends them to charm school, and the result is Penny

Oven’s croissant sandwich; a ham and gruyere omelet on their house croissant with a blood orange marmalade. The ham has a subtle spice, the eggs are rich and creamy, and the marmalade enhances the flavors perfectly. Despite my doubts about sometimes bitter blood orange, it works beautifully here.

The kid’s menu at Penny Oven really stands out for the level of care and detail in the options and ingredients not oft seen. For one of the first times, I, a childless adult male, seriously considered ordering off of the kid’s menu.

The pink dragon smoothie ($5) is a hot pink concoction of pitaya, spinach, blueberries, banana and apple juice and a super clever way to get your little one to consume vegetables. Even the minime pancakes ($5) are made with buckwheat, oats, bananas and spinach before they are topped with blueberries and maple syrup.

For fear of heart palpitations I was not able to try every coffee on the menu, but since I went on one of our sweltering mornings I was able to try one of Penny Oven’s iced coffees. The hemp cacao iced coffee ($4.50) is made with the titular ingredients and flavored with coconut oil, vanilla and maple syrup, brought all together with their homemade almond milk. Simultaneously refreshing and caffeinated, it is one of my favorite coffee drinks offered in the area. The freshness of the almond milk is clear by the rich flavor and lack of fully machinated smoothness.

Only open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily, Penny Oven is perfectly poised for both the on-your-wayto-work pickup or the easy, breezy brunch. All of Wilton’s restaurants have held to a Matthew McConaughey level of effortlessly cool, relaxed dining, but Penny Oven really seals the deal on the natural and relaxed atmosphere. It’s summertime.

Treat yourself to a visit for brunch or a light lunch and a crafted beverage. I promise you’ll catch those vacay vibes.

QUESTIONS WITHOUT ANSWERS NEW MOTHER PONDERS WHY HER OWN MOM COMMITTED SUICIDE Dear Patti, My mother committed suicide when I was 4 years old. My father did a wonderful job raising me on his own and I always had the support of all four of my grandparents. Since I was so young when she died, I have very little memory of my mom. I honestly didn’t have very strong feelings about her, until now.

Five months ago I gave birth to a baby girl and to me she is the most precious little human being in the world. I’d always heard parents say that the love for a child is like no other, but it wasn’t until I had my daughter that I truly understood.

Now that I’m a mother myself, I keep having all these thoughts about my own mother. How could she have left me? I can’t imagine leaving my child motherless, and especially never by choice. For the first time I wonder what my life would have been like if my mom had lived. If she really loved me and my father, how could she kill herself? Why would anyone want to commit suicide when they have people who love them and want to help them?

Please, if you can shed some light on the subject, maybe I can better understand what my mom was thinking and finally move on.

— Daisy Dear Daisy, Even though it was a long time ago, I’m very sorry about your loss and that you never got the chance to know your mother. Unfortunately, many loved ones struggling to find solace share your frustration of seeking answers to unanswerable questions.

Each suicide or suicide attempt is complicated with individualized layers of issues.

While you may never know what your mother was experiencing, I don’t believe that she wanted to leave you. She just didn’t know how to live with her emotional pain.

When I work with patients and they talk about suicidal feelings, I’m fully aware that they could follow through with the self-destructive act of suicide. That doesn’t necessarily mean they actually want to take their physical life away. Rather, they want to put an end to the pain they feel. When someone is pushed to a breaking point with unbearable dark emotions, they may feel that suicide is the only way to stop their agony.

Sometimes there does need to be a death for a rebirth to occur, but it doesn’t have to be a literal death. It’s the job of the therapist and the patient to work together to identify what has to change so that new life can occur and thoughts of suicide can cease. I look at suicidal ideation (thoughts/fantasies about suicide) as a wake-up call for change. If a patient believes there is no hope that is when they are most at risk.

No baby is born wanting to harm itself. When someone considers suicide, it stems from trauma, abuse, mental illness, or a combination of these. If a patient describes a particularly violent means of committing suicide, it is termed “self-murder.” It reflects a homicidal rage that has built up within, is repressed, and becomes maladaptive against the self. At that point one may be so filled with despair and rage against themselves that they believe their loved ones are better off without them. It’s the task of therapy to help the patient experience this inner rage without becoming self-destructive. For example, if someone fantasizes about shooting herself, I can help her acknowledge who it is that she really wants to shoot, and process that rage in a healthy way.

Much remains to be learned on the science of suicide and the influences of such factors as social and moral forces, genetics, substance abuse, depression, schizophrenia, and other personality disorders. In 2018 the World Health Organization reported that an estimated 1 million people worldwide die from suicide each year, that there is one death by suicide every 40 seconds, and they predict that by 2020 the rate will increase to one every 20 seconds.

The late Dr. Edwin Shneidman, a renowned pioneer in the field of suicide who founded the Los Angeles Suicide Prevention Center, once said, “I still believe it’s critical to look at personal stories, emotional circumstances, and private histories in the study of suicide, not just the biology and pharmacology of suicide and depression.” He further adds, “I believe that suffering is at the heart of every suicide. If I were to do it all over again, I would probably study love.” ■ 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.

PASADENA RESIDENT DWAYNE COLBERT’S SKETCH COMEDY SHOW ‘SHADE’ TAKES A BITINGLY SATIRICAL LOOK AT RACE RELATIONS

BY CARL KOZLOWSKI

T

he state of race relations in America is hardly a laughing matter under normal circumstances, with bitter divisiveness manifesting everywhere from the ugly white supremacist rallies of Charlottesville, Virginia to the contentious exchanges between presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Joe Biden at the recent Democratic debate.

Nonetheless, Pasadena-based writer-actor Dwayne Colbert decided to take a stab at a satirical sketch show on the topic called “Shade,” and the hard work has paid off with critical acclaim and two extensive runs so far this year, including the current one at 10 p.m. Saturdays at the Second City theater in Hollywood.

The daringly hilarious show features a large and CONTINUED ON PAGE 16

RACE RIOT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15 ethnically diverse cast of 12, with strong representation of all four major American ethnicities: Caucasian, African-American, Asian-American and Latino. Building off the intriguing question “What if you could be someone else, just for one day?” the original musical comedy (with songs by Hughie Stone Fish) sets the stage “for a doppelganger switcheroo that goes way, way beyond skin-deep differences.”

“I had written a full-on musical comedy for Second City called ‘Afros and Ass Whoopins’ about police brutality,” says Colbert, who is African-American while Stone Fish is Caucasian. “That was so successful even LA Weekly and LA Magazine ran stories about it, and it got three extensions and ran for a year and a half. The Second City producers trusted me to not only teach there and coach house teams for sketch and improv, but asked me to create another show.

“It took two years to write ‘Shade,’ because there was some pressure after ‘Afros’ to decide what else we wanted to talk about,” adds Colbert. “Everyone’s got hangups with race, and I always loved switcheroo comedies like ‘The Prince and the Pauper’ and ‘Freaky Friday.’ So I thought, ‘What if Rachel Dolezal got her wish to be black and Stacey Dash got her wish to be white?

What if they got the other experience but the way that each race wanted them to experience the other, the harsh realities?’ The idea was to look at how life is as a white person but through black people’s eyes, and vice versa.”

Colbert had previously teamed with Stone Fish on “Afros,” drawing the inspiration to work with the “Jewish guy from Syracuse” after learning that the classic race-related song “Strange Fruit” by Billie Holiday was “based on a poem by a Jewish school teacher.” Realizing that many Caucasians in America were involved in the struggle to improve race relations, he decided to partner with Stone Fish to gain a perspective from both of the major sides in the racial divide.

On both “Afros” and “Shade” the duo worked at first from an outline rather 16 PASADENA WEEKLY | 07.04.19

than a finished script, with key emotional moments driving the narrative despite the majority of each show being bold satire.

Before writing the songs for “Afros,” Stone FIsh did a lot of research to understand the mindsets of both police officers and black families who had negative experiences with them, by interviewing both sides. With “Shade,” he interviewed members of all the races portrayed.

“Once we have a great script and songs, the other major thing is picking a cast of actors who can come in and work magic on the fly,” says Colbert, referring to the fact that a much larger ensemble of actors rotate turns in the show’s roles. “Their professionalism to come in and pick it up off a recording of the show 24 hours before they hit stage for the first time is incredible.

“It’s not normal to switch so often, but we’re running in the summer when people are doing more things all over in their lives,” he adds. “We go for singing ability first on ‘Shade,’ and then acting is secondary. With ‘Afros,’ it was the opposite.”

Colbert graduated from UC Davis — “Surprisingly with a math degree, considering I’m a writer and director now” — after growing up in South Central Los Angeles throughout his childhood. He first experienced Pasadena at 18, when his parents reunited after a six-year separation and moved to the Crown City together.

“My parents lived there a long time until they retired and moved away to the South,” says Colbert, who also has a created a digital video series called “Brainwashed By Toons” that is about to debut on the Funny Or Die website. “I’m married, have my kids, and I just love the area. All my friends I live and work with in Hollywood are fascinated I live there. But to me it’s a normal drive of 20 minutes away, and no skyscrapers, so it feels like a college town, I love it. I take my little boys around in Radio Flyer wagons to coffee shops.” n “Shade” runs at 10 p.m. Saturdays through Aug. 17 at Second City Hollywood, 6560 Hollywood Blvd., Los Angeles. Tickets are $12.

JOSHUA TREE FAVORITE GENE EVARO JR. BRINGS HIS FUNKY SOUL TO ONE COLORADO WEDNESDAY

ack in the ’90s, when “da Soup” was bubbling warmly through live music venues in Old Town and greater Pasadena, Gene Evaro Jr. would have fit right in.

A scion of the sprawling, multigenerational Evaro clan of musicians and singers renowned in the Joshua Tree-Palm Springs desert region, Evaro Jr. resides in JT and projects that creative community’s tribal vibe of funky love vibrations and good times. His immediate musical family includes sisters Gabrielle and Shavaughn, who performed with him in popular family band Evaro (whose self-titled 2010 album closed with a hummed and strummed “Ode to Natalie,” for a sister who had died), and who have also backed him in his Gene Evaro Jr. & the Family lineup. Their father, Gene Evaro Sr., a lifelong musician and producer, toured with the likes of the Temptations and Ike & Tina Turner.

Evaro Jr. comes across as a bohemian free spirit, but behind that everybody-come-together persona lie solid chops; he’s been playing keyboards, composing and programming since childhood, and his extended guitar solos nod to influences like Prince and Derek Trucks. A favorite at the annual Joshua Tree music festival, he’s a smooth showman onstage, encouraging audiences to sing along and dance to lighthearted jams like “Charlie Moan,” “California is Burning,” “Hustlin’,” “Love Awakening,” and “Soul (How I Keep Movin On),” whose silky harmonies and sensual grooves suggest Marvin Gaye after 40 days in the desert. Songs like recent single “Loving You” (a showcase for him and bassist gal pal Piper Robison) and “Smile” stick with standard R&B romance (“Go ahead and smile, girl, it looks good on you”). “We Don’t Need to Be Sold” blends a reggae-kissed message of unity and protest with family faith

and stinging leads before torquing into a serious guitar-horn jam: “We don’t need to be high We don’t need to sold We don’t need to be saved We don’t need to be told We just wander around with our God-given love” He celebrated his birthday with a show at Pappy & Harriet’s in Pioneertown last week before playing the super groove High Sierra Music Festival on the Fourth, and he’s hitting the road later this month with his band for a string of summer tour dates through the West. First, though, he’s warming up with a duo or trio in One Colorado’s courtyard Wednesday night. n Wine Wednesday hosts Gene Evaro Jr. at One Colorado, 41 Hugus Alley, Old Pasadena, 7-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 10; free admission.

MIKE MANN & COWBOY SOUL OFFER THEIR TAKE ON DIVERGENT GENRES

TAKE A LITTLE COUNTRY, THEN ADD A DASH OF SOUL AND YOU HAVE MIKE MANN & COWBOY SOUL, PERFORMING SUNDAY AT THE ROSE. Mann, lead vocalist, guitarist, harmonica player and songwriter, launched the group as Mike Mann & The Nightriders. The native of the Mississippi River city of Clinton, Iowa, now based in LA is one of the rare examples of a black cowboy music act. After changing the name to Mike Mann & Country Soul, the band picked up steam.

Early in life, he developed a love for harmonica and guitar, and also worked for some years as a radio personality at various places around the country. He learned about the cowboy connection to the black community after reading the book, “The Black West”

by William Katz.

The band offers an innovative take on the divergent genres and makes it work.

A crisp showcase of the Canadian gypsy blues duo’s stylish meld of pre-WWII blues, New Orleans ragtime, big band jazz and Western swing. Guitarist A.W. Cardinal growls like Tom Waits and quotes Howlin’ Wolf during slinky opener “Big Black Mamba,” about the “dirty mis-treater from the stars of Texaco” —oil — while bassist Jasmine Colette gives a sultry spin to the Billie Holiday-inspired “52nd St. Strut.” Drummer Jimmy “Hollywood” Badger, trumpeter Jack Garton and organist Darcy Phillips drape standout “Hard Times Hit Parade” in atmospheric allure. bluemoonmarquee.com

THE ALLMAN BETTS BAND, Down to the River (BMG): HHH

Devon Allman, Duane Betts and Berry Oakley Jr. proudly recall their fathers’ blues-soul-rock style, if not the Allman Brothers Band’s exploratory verve.

Rocker “All Night” and an emotive cover of Tom Petty’s “Southern Accents” claim their generation and roots-spanning heritage. Compositionally it’s more reassuring than challenging; fans may hunger for more of Johnny Stachela’s slide or the doubleguitar spark of “Shinin’,” or jams like the “Melissa”evoking one stretching Charles Williams’ “Autumn Breeze” well past eight minutes. Allman’s throaty baritone contrasts strikingly with Betts’ reedier vocals and they play with familiar warmth, like a band with nothing to prove. allmanbettsband.com

CHARLIE CHAPLIN, Film Music Anthology (PIAS): HHHH

Sixty-seven tracks of music from silent film icon Charlie Chaplin’s decades-spanning oeuvre.

A handful feature vocals, including still-timely speeches from 1940’s anti-fascist “Great Dictator” and 1947’s “Monsieur Verdoux.” But the music’s winsome escapism charms unadorned; listen to the romantic clarinet and violin solos composed

by Chaplin for 1931’s “City Lights”; the horn- and string-stoked exuberance of “Jazz” from 1919’s “A Day’s Pleasure”; the pop-parodying “Mandolin Serenade” from 1957’s “A King in New York”; and the dramatic orchestration of “Smile” from 1936’s “Modern Times.” It sparkles most when, like Chaplin’s expressive Tramp, it’s free from words. charlie-chaplin.com

‘Moving’ Music

MUSE/IQUE KICKS OFF ITS SUMMER SEASON SATURDAY WITH MOVIE TRIBUTE SHOW ‘MOVING/PICTURES’

BY CARL KOZLOWSKI There are plenty of great traditions in every SoCal summer, from cookouts and beach trips to Dodger games and concerts. But Pasadena has its own sources of musical magic, including MUSE/IQUE, an orchestra which combines classical music with jazz, pop and an assortment of dance troupes each year for an exciting three-show season of fun.

This year’s theme for the series — held at the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens — is “Music in Motion,” and it kicks off Saturday with a show titled “Moving/ Pictures.”

Playing off the idea that “a ticket to the movies has always been a ticket to our wildest dreams,” the show features some of the most popular tunes from classic movies and also boasts a performance by three-time Tony Award nominee Joshua Henry.

“We were inspired largely by The Huntington, because when I walk among their world famous plantings and paintings, I am struck by the fact that these fixed objects, lovingly preserved, move people on a global scale and their inspiration will surely transform hearts not yet born,” says MUSE/IQUE founder and conductor Rachael Worby. “I think

of The Huntington as a place that spins the globe, and I think of music the same way.

“We begin the series with this exploration of the art of the film score as an interplay between music, motion, character and ideas,” she adds. “But we also go beyond the film score to examine all sorts of images that move us, and we imagine together the music that comes to mind when we encounter beautiful imagery. Because it is the weekend of Independence Day, we will be paying particular homage to the moving images and music that underpin the American Spirit.”

One major element of Saturday’s show will be “the art of John Williams.”

The famed composer has 51 Oscar nominations and his score for “Star Wars” was named by the American Film Institute as the greatest American film score of all time, but Worby is keeping things interesting by spotlighting some of his lesser-known but still compelling works.

“Any program focused on the way music and images work together must include the original genius of the genre,” says Worby. “In so many ways, Williams invented the way our imagination works today. We will be playing

scores not frequently featured in John Williams tribute evenings, such as his scores for “Lincoln” and “Memoirs of a Geisha.” We’re interested in illuminating the way he builds characters through music.

“We will also be performing songs that define certain eras and feelings within America, and yet seem to have the timeless ability to move us forward,” adds Worby. “These include ‘Soliloquy’ from ‘Carousel,’ Gershwin’s ‘Summertime,’ and the Louis Armstrong standby ‘What a Wonderful World.’”

The next show of the season is “Train/Glory” (which pays tribute to trains from the Transcontinental Railroad to toy trains) on Aug. 3, with guest soprano Liv Redpath and the dance troupe Body Traffic. The third and final show is “Band/Together,” which features the American Ballet Theatre and the “daring piano duo” Anderson and Roe to pay homage to the idea that music can move people together in a way that creates a divine outcome. n MUSE/IQUE performs “Moving/Pictures” at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens, 1151 Oxford Road, San Marino.

GLENDALE

PACIFIC GLENDALE 18 The Americana at Brand,

W

ith the Fourth of July being celebrated this week, what better time than to think about the American Dream? The idea of pursuing life, liberty and happiness enshrined in the Declaration of Independence itself, along with the idea that you can make any dream happen if you just work hard enough.

In the new movie “Wild Rose,” a young and wild single mother of two named Rose-Lynn dreams of being a country singer. But she’s got a few obstacles in the way, including the fact that she lives in Glasgow, Scotland, and is fresh out of a year-long prison stint for distributing heroin. Now wearing an electronic ankle bracelet, she is required to be home every night from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.

Rose-Lynn is the kind of free-wheeling gal who yells the F word at the top of her lungs the second she’s free from her jail cell and heads to her boy toy for a shag before bothering to make it home to her young son and daughter. Add a stop at the pub where she gets buzzed on whiskey on the way home, and it’s no wonder her mom isn’t too happy to see her return after a year of raising her kids.

With her children distant from her and a seemingly dead-end job as a housemaid to a wealthy family that pays her just about $12 an hour, Rose-Lynn feels like she’ll never pull together the money to escape to Nashville and take a real swing at success. But when the children of her employer Susannah come home early and catch her belting out a song while vacuuming, Susannah asks her if she’s tried to make it professionally.

Rose-Lynn responds by immediately asking for $5,000 to make a fresh start in Nashville, but Susannah tells her to instead tape a video demo of herself singing and send it to the top country music deejay on the BBC radio airwaves. When Rose-Lynn knocks his socks off with a beautifully heartfelt ballad, she gets an invita-

Jessie Buckley and Sophie Okonedo in “Wild Rose“

tion to come meet him in London and her dreams seem suddenly tangible.

Yet questions remain: Is she really talented enough to make it, or is she jeopardizing her family by seeking to spend time away from them? How will she resolve things with her mother, who thinks she’s delusional?

And can she really ever put her wild past behind her?

“Wild Rose” is a quiet film, in spite of its occasionally rousing tunes sung by lead actress Jessie Buckley, an Irishwoman who broke out on a British talent competition series and has been a rising star ever since.

Rose-Lynn is a fascinating character, a real hell raiser in the early scenes of the film, but eventually revealing a profound loneliness and desire to finally do better as a mother, a daughter and for herself.

Buckley has incredible vocals, but in keeping with the movie’s intimate and quiet tone, her most powerful moments are in the songs where she sings almost in a whisper. It’s a magical effect that will make those who see this movie fall in love with her immediately.

As her mother, veteran actress Julie Walters (who was Oscar-nominated in the 1980s for “Educating Rita”) looks and acts like Emma Thompson. It’s a solid performance of a woman who has been ground down and exasperated by her daughter’s poor behavior and incredibly bad choices for so long, she wonders if she’ll ever truly turn it around.

Those aspects — of redemption and family, trust and the desire to change — are universally relatable issues. They make this movie very affecting, but the occasionally too-slow pace keeps this from being a perfect movie. If you love good music or characterbased drama, however, “Wild Rose” should smell quite sweet. n

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, (800) 758-8052 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site, www.homesearch.com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 9948-5158.

The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.
