OPINION Purple is the New Party

Purple people eaters by Paul Moomjean

paulmoomjean@yahoo.com

January, my biweekly article turned from a primarily libertarian conservative voice into what is now a “purple” voice, looking at topics from the middle of the political spectrum. One reason was that I felt the idea of letting politics continue to divide us was an undesirable outcome I didn’t want to contribute to. In today’s react before the person can finish their act culture, I didn’t want to continue to simply argue, “I’m right. You’re wrong.” This unhealthy type of response stems from all areas of society. In a world where every opinion is “equal” without proper dissection, many people can barely handle disagreements and rarely see the other side as anything but evil. Right now, beloved comedian and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres has been called to the floor for having a public friendship with former U.S. President George W. Bush. In a red state/blue state country, anyone showing shades of purple is being eaten alive. A few weeks ago, Ellen and Bush were seated together at a football game. They were both invited by a mutual friend, and sat together, even being caught laughing. Twitter went crazy with anti-Ellen tweets and talking heads and columnists blasted her for being kind to “43.” Her response was classy, non-defensive and in the spirit of what America should strive for.

RETRACTION: On Oct. 16, VCReporter ran a story that Gov. Newsom had signed AB855 (Irwin) that would have frozen property tax valuations for disaster rebuilds, such as homes that were rebuilt after a fire. That story ran in error. Gov. Newsom vetoed that bill.

“People were upset,” she said. “They thought, why is a gay Hollywood liberal sitting next to a conservative Republican president?” She then jokingly added, “[They] didn’t even notice I’m holding a brand-new iPhone 11.” DeGeneres wanted to clarify clearly that she’s not ashamed to be sitting with the once-loathed president. “Here’s the thing: I’m friends with George Bush. In fact, I’m friends with a lot of people who don’t share the same beliefs that I have. We’re all different and I think we’ve forgotten that that’s OK, that we’re all different.” Finally, she wraps up her verbal manifesto with the best point yet: “Just because I don’t agree with someone on everything doesn’t mean that I’m not going to be friends with them. When I say be kind to one another, I don’t mean only the people that think the same way that you do — I mean be kind to everyone. Doesn’t matter.” The backlash from the Left was deafening. Of course it was. There was once a famous man who preached love your neighbor and your enemies, and they put him on a cross. One such Ellen detractor is writer Mehdi Hasan. In his article for The Intercept, he went on to basically call Bush the worst president of the modern era, not for his beliefs but his war crimes. “Yet Ellen’s specific argument in defense of her friendship with the former president is both nonsensical and offensive. No one is suggesting that she shouldn’t be pals with a

conservative or a Republican. Bush’s beliefs are irrelevant here; his actions are what matters.” Hasan broke it down more specifically. “He was one of the most destructive presidents in modern American history; a man who has never been held to account for a long litany of crimes, misdeeds, and abuses of power committed during his two bloodstained terms in office. The reason ‘43’ should be treated as a pariah is not because he is a Republican or a conservative, but because he caused the deaths of thousands of innocent people and tortured hundreds of others.” While the wars were misguided and miscalculated, were they any different than John F. Kennedy’s Vietnam War? That war saw three U.S. Presidents, just as Bush’s wars included President Barack Obama and President Donald Trump. Would Hasan be upset if Ellen praised JFK? No. It’s because we live in a “present only” world without context or shades of grey. Ellen was just trying to be a beacon of light, in an otherwise dark world. But today’s mentality doesn’t allow for that. The red hates the blue. The blue hates the red. And the reds and blues within those colors hate those who deviate. Anyone in the purple is being crucified. Back in the 1970s the Minnesota Vikings linemen were called the Purple People Eaters. You can call the extremes on both sides of the political color scheme the ♦ same today.

Eye On The Environment COOL THE PLANET WITH YOUR REFRIGERATOR by David Goldstein, VC PWA, IWMD

f your teenager was inspired by Greta Thunberg’s speech at last month’s United Nations Climate Action Summit to participate in the Sept. 20 boycott of school to protest adults’ insufficient action in combating climate change, here is a test of their true intentions. See if your son or daughter displays the typical teenage behavior of standing in front of an open refrigerator door and staring at the contents while deciding what to eat. Don’t believe them when they say, “Hey, I’m just trying to cool the planet with our refrigerator.” You really can cool the planet with your refrigerator, but not that way. You might have to get rid of the one you have and replace it with a more efficient model. I mean the refrigerator, not the teen. In general, refrigerators have become more efficient, so a newer one, if comparable, will usually use less energy than an older one, but there are many other factors to consider. Size matters, of course; more space to cool requires more energy. Layout is another factor; heat rises, so a freezer on the bottom is the most efficient design, and side-by-side is the least efficient. If you buy a new refrigerator, look for Energy Star certification and compare annual energy cost projections, both of which should be posted on refrigerator doors by retailers. When people replace refrigerators, they tend to “trade up,” according to Abul Faleh, sales associate with Warehouse Discount Center Kitchen and Bath in Oxnard. Customers replacing refrigerators buy bigger units with more features, he said, some of which require more energy. Newer refrigerators, for example, are more likely to have ice makers, a major energy-using device. Sometimes you can get better cooling and more efficient performance out of your existing refrigerator without replacing it and without adjusting the temperature settings downward. Tips from Southern California Edison’s energy efficiency website include the following: Cover liquids, thaw frozen foods in the refrigerator, maintain space between items for air circulation, keep the refrigerator a few inches from walls to maintain air circulation, keep your refrigerator nearly full and clean the condenser coils at least once per year by unplugging the unit and brushing or vacuuming the coils. Michael Bluejay’s “Mr. Electricity” website notes, “food safety experts say you should refrigerate hot food to prevent contamination,” but he claims consumers have two hours from the time of preparation, or one hour if temperatures exceed 90 degrees. Therefore, to save energy, he recommends putting hot items in smaller containers and soaking them in a pot of cold water for 15 to 30 minutes before refrigerating. If you reduce your refrigerator’s energy consumption but are still not happy with your refrigerator’s cooling performance, the problem might not be the condition of the refrigerator’s mechanical parts, but rather the way you are using the refrigerator. First, check the temperature settings. Second, arrange food items in accordance with the areas of the refrigerator most suitable to those items. According to Annabelle Lau, who lists her title on the Edison website as “Energized by Edison Writer,” the top shelf of the refrigerator has the most consistent temperature, so use it to store items needing no cooking, such as drinks, herbs and bread. Lower shelves have the coldest temperatures, good for storing raw ingredients such as meat, eggs, dairy and seafood. Side doors are the

warmest part, so use them to store only the foods most resistant to spoiling, such as water, juice, salsa, salad dressing, ketchup and oil. Improving both the energy efficiency and the performance of your existing refrigerator also has other benefits. Keeping an older, relatively efficient refrigerator going, and not replacing it with a newer, bigger one also saves “embodied” energy. Embodied energy is the term for the energy used to make the old refrigerator. A few years ago, Southern California Edison discontinued a popular program paying up to $50 each for old, working refrigerators. There was a big jump in energy efficiency starting with 1993 model years, so once they stopped retiring units of that vintage, it no longer made sense for them to prioritize refrigerator buyback over their other energy efficiency programs. Anyway, if your refrigerator is still working, you can probably make more than $50 by selling it through Craigslist, OfferUp, LetGo, or other apps. Most thrift stores do not accept refrigerators, but another option is to donate your refrigerator directly to a charity wanting to replace their older, less efficient one. Non-working refrigerators may be recycled as scrap metal, although only the largest metal recycling companies accept them, due to special handling required to extract freon. For example, SA Recycling, in Oxnard, pays $30 per ton for refrigerators. That is 1.5 cents per pound, or $4.50 for the average 300-pound refrigerator. To have a discarded refrigerator picked up from your curb, you can call your household refuse hauling company. The two biggest local haulers include refrigerators in free, annual bulky item collection allocations for each home. Alternatively, the company selling you a new refrigerator may have haul-away service for your old one, or you can hire workers to take it from your kitchen through apps such as BuddyTruck, Lugg or TaskRabbit or by contacting companies such as Haul4Me.com, 1800GotJunk, or u-call-we-haul. Of course, the most energy conserving refrigerator is an unplugged one. If you have an extra refrigerator in the garage and you need it only on special occasions, unload and unplug it. The small amount of money you are saving by storing year-round the extra food you buy on sale or in bulk probably does not justify your electricity cost, which the Energy Star website states averF ages $300 per year.

he Port of Hueneme is unique as the only deepwater port between Los Angeles and San Francisco, allowing large cargo ships that require a deeper draw to offload a variety of items from around the world. Automobiles are a top product coming through, making up about half of the revenue generated through the port. Considered small in comparison to other ports on the West Coast, Hueneme is the main hub for bananas in the Western United States with 30 million boxes passing off the ships each year. “90 percent of the produce is going somewhere nearby,” said Giles Pettifor, environmental manager with the port, during a recent tour. He said the port is the third or fourth largest employer in Ventura County. The port connects Ventura County with the global market. The top five nations trading products through the port are South Korea, Germany, United Kingdom, Sweden and Japan. At just 120 waterfront acres, Pettifor said that operations must be very streamlined: “The cargo is not stockpiled at the port,” as at larger ports. This means Hueneme doesn’t have a line of diesel trucks waiting to haul products off; most is taken upon being offloaded. The way the port was founded is also unique. Most ports are built with federal funding and have some level of outside control. Funding for Hueneme came from a bond measure passed by voters in 1937 (A Troubled Dream: Richard Bard’s Struggle to Build a Harbor at Hueneme, California; Powell March Green-

land, 2016.). As a result, the port is governed by the locally elected Commissioners of the Oxnard Harbor District. The district includes the cities of Oxnard and Port Hueneme and the unincorporated coastal areas and communities between those municipalities. The port is self-governing and self-funding.

A clean-air port? The Port of Hueneme is the first port in California to be “Green Marine” Certified (2017 and 2018). As part of this global program recognizing ports that are taking the lead in reducing environmental impacts, Hueneme received top grades in Environmental Leadership, Community Impact and Spill Prevention. Pettifor said it is important to everyone at the port that their sustainability processes are not “green washing” but actually “integrated into daily operations.” That aim has governed the programs and infrastructure changes happening at the port. Recent changes at the port are part of efforts to reduce air pollution including the installation of a $13 million onshore power system for cargo ships. While in port, ships can plug in and use renewable electric power instead of diesel fuel-generated power from onboard or outdated systems. Combined with other upgrades, the port has been able to reduce emissions of fine particulates (the size that can get deep into lungs) by 82 percent. In addition, in the past year, the port added an allelectric crane, grant-funded electric yard tractors for moving offloaded cargo and a hydrogen fuel cell truck for moving produce between Hueneme, the Port of Los Angeles and produce process-

ing houses. Pettifor said the port is directing considerable resources and grant funding to improve air quality in the area. “It’s the right thing to do, the socially responsible thing to do,” he said, adding that air quality “is the most pertinent [health issue] for the community. It is the biggest focus for me.” The port has partnered with the Ventura County Air Pollution Control District to build a first-of-its-kind program called PHRESH (Port of Hueneme Reducing Emission, Supporting Health). One of PHRESH’s first steps is the completion of a baseline emission inventory. That involves understanding the amounts and sources of emissions. “[We need] a full accounting of the pollution that we generate,” said Pettifor, so that the port can start identifying ways to reduce or eliminate emissions, and track improvements over time, potentially setting a zero-emissions goal. The port will be auditing all operations and looking at emissions from equipment, ships, transport and “crunching all those numbers.” That process is under way and should take under a year to complete. The port has just stationed two robust air monitors at elementary schools in Oxnard, including Haycox Elementary. The $140,000 investment will collect data on particulate matter, wind direction and intensity, helping to provide reliable information about air quality. Once the monitors are calibrated, all the data will be publicly available.

Community push-back For organizations working on the issues of social justice and climate change, the shifts

at the port are not happening quickly enough. “Our vision doesn’t include shutting down the port. Our vision is for a healthy South Oxnard and a responsible port,” said Maricela Morales, executive director with CAUSE, Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy. CAUSE is heading up a coalition of organizations that are opposing the port’s proposal to temporarily use a 34-acre area in South Oxnard to park nearly 5,000 cars that are offloaded at the port. The parcel is on the northern edge of the Ormond Beach Restoration plan, but is not currently part of that plan. The parcel is privately owned by Tarzana-based A&J Oxnard LLC. The port’s plan is to enclose the 34-acre parcel with a chain link fence and add native shrubs, trees and groundcover along the roadway. A lighting plan was designed to ensure minimal impact to native habitat. The parking area will be gravel, and the application includes a provision to remove the gravel when the permit expires in five years. Passenger vans will be used to transport drivers back to the port after they park vehicles at the site. The lot will have security personnel on site 24 hours a day, but the parking and moving of cars can only occur between 5 a.m. and 10 p.m. Earlier this year, the port did agree, as CAUSE requested, to conduct a full Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the project, but CAUSE remains opposed. “Is it creating a healthier environment? Is it creating quality jobs of which union jobs are the gold standard?” said Morales. She said just nine jobs are “tied to this specific proposal . . . they are not union jobs. We are very clear

that we are not eliminating quality jobs by being opposed to this project.” (See sidebar, “Port parking lot plans postponed.”) Port officials and project application documents in the project file at the City of Oxnard state the project involved 30 “mostly union” jobs. On Tuesday, Oct. 16, CAUSE called a press conference at the project site on West Hueneme Road, next to the Oxnard wastewater treatment facility, in order to get their message out about why they are opposing the project. “Here we are again, fighting to protect and restore nature, fighting to say no more air pollution and industrialization of our coast,” said Morales through a megaphone. Her words were sometimes muffled by the loud honking of horns by large trucks driving by, encouraged by the union members present at the press conference. She said the organizations there are coming “together to protect the environment for seven generations and lift up the voices of low income, working families and communities of color that bear the brunt of environmental injustice.” A few dozen supporters from CAUSE and other organizations were joined by nearly double their number of union members, community members, port employees and officials who support the project and say the jobs are vital for their community. “This is an industrial zone, it’s what it was designed for,” said Arthur Chavez, a thirdgeneration Oxnard resident and a local longshoreman. He said there is very limited land that is zoned light industrial. “They want to save it, and make it a park. We need more jobs. South Oxnard has 33 percent in poverty.” Continued on Page 10

The union members and other port supporters stood along the roadway and encouraged truck drivers to honk their horns during the speakers. In at least two instances, union members moved to stand directly in front of people opposing the project. “We had hoped that the port wouldn’t send people out . . . our experience to date is that at any public setting, the port supporters have been disrespectful to speakers,” said Morales. She said some of their supporters felt intimidated by the union members and other port supporters and that CAUSE’s coalition should be given “the freedom that we allow them, which is to participate in the public process, to have our say and move forward.”

So far, studies conducted as part of the project application don’t show any significant impacts to community health or the environment. But those opposed point to science related to cumulative impacts over time. Dr. Jill Johnson, PhD, assistant professor of preventative medicine at the University of Southern California, spoke at the press conference about three decades of research showing how air emissions from diesel can impact humans across lifespans. “Frontline workers who have gotten cancer over decades, [the diesel particulates] go into our bodies and into our blood and cross over into our brain and go into [a] fetus.” She said her research is finding “increases in dementia and Alzheimer’s in elderly who are exposed to this type” of air pollution. In the areas around the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, where officials are also working to reduce air emissions, “a reduction in air toxics [has] reduced the number of asthma exacerbations.” “This project is essential, we see it as a beautification of this part of town, [and we will be] put to work for quite a bit,” said Armando Delgado, spokesperson with Local 805 Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters, noting the construction work and ongoing jobs that will take place over the life of the project. “All of that is all of our trades. For too long we’ve seen this property riddled with trash and vagrants.” He said of the approximately 1,800 members of their union, 200 live in South Oxnard and about 480 live in Oxnard. “[Right now] there are over 4,000 applicants for only a couple jobs, for very good money,” said Laurie Espinoza, a non-union, fifth-generation worker at the port. She said that while the environmental issues are true, the jobs the project could bring are needed. “This is all Green New Deal stuff,” said Miguel Rodriguez, community outreach manager with the port. “After doing my due diligence and coming to the port to see for myself whether they

were doing all the green work they were supposed to . . . little by little I saw these things, [and] I wanted to make sure the community got the right message around the port expansion.” ♦

Port parking lot plans postponed by David Michael Courtland Opponents of a plan to put a vehicle storage yard at Hueneme and Perkins roads in Oxnard have forced Port of Hueneme officials to put it on hold until next year while an environmental impact study is done. Oxnard’s city council voted 7-0 on July 30 to have a consultant — paid for by the port — do a study to make sure the project doesn’t violate California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines. The port wants to use the 34-acre privately owned lot to store vehicles dropped off at the port before they are sent to dealerships. It is zoned light industrial and sits across from the Hueneme Industrial Center and two strip malls, but is not far from Oxnard’s Ormond Beach wetlands. “We felt that we wanted to move forward in that way to slow any of the misinformation,” said Port of Hueneme General Manager Kristin Decas, who said the study would take eight to 10 months. Port officials have expressed frustration with activists claiming the project will lead to more air pollution, something port officials say is false. The delay means Oxnard’s planning commission probably won’t vote on the project before the spring of 2020, after the consultant’s report is presented and following another round of public comments around February or March. The move came after months of opposition to the project from CAUSE (Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy), as well as about 200 public comments from residents, said Giles Pettifor, the port’s environmental manager. The comments were split about 50-50 for and against the project, Pettifor said, “but enough specific concerns were raised that we decided to do a full EIR [environmental impact report], to make it clear the port wants to address the public’s concern. If anything, this has given us an opportunity to educate and to make friends.” Among concerns people have are the parking lot’s possible effect on nesting birds, whose breeding season is from April to September, and ground or water contamination. But the project is specifically designed to minimize any impact on wildlife, with native plants and a gravel surface that allows water to drain into the ground, which

has been plowed to control for weeds, said Pettifor. An Oxnard Planning Department staff report concluded that there will be no significant threat to wildlife or plants, but opponents say it wasn’t thorough enough. “That wasn’t an environmental study, that’s basically saying, ‘we declare that there would be no negative impacts,’ ” said Lucas Zucker of CAUSE, as opposed to a CEQA study that checks for all potential environmental impacts. “Our biggest concern is air pollution; diesel exhaust is the most dangerous in terms of cancer risk,” said Zucker, noting that the parking lot would bring increased traffic from trucks delivering and picking up vehicles. “That’s a lot more trucks going through the neighborhood, a lot more air pollution.” Zucker also downplayed the possible loss of 35 to 40 jobs — mainly drivers and security guards — the port says the parking lot would create in South Oxnard, a notoriously blighted section of the city. “The people who do that work get close to minimum wage,” Zucker said. “When you think about it, a parking lot is probably the least creative thing they could do with 34 acres.” But Cypress Neighborhood Council Chair Liz White disagreed, pointing out that the parking lot is only a first step in the port’s long-range expansion plans. “This small expansion will lead into a bigger expansion, which will make the port the largest provider of jobs in the area,” said White, whose neighborhood sits about a half mile east of the vacant lot. “South Oxnard needs jobs and we need to make use of vacant properties, otherwise, they’re overrun by gangs and homeless, creating blight and opportunity for criminal activities. . . . I think any job, even a starter job, is a steppingstone from gang activity and general poverty.” White also said that the parking lot is a better use of the land than building more housing. “Some of these areas are toxic and uninhabitable Superfund sites, who would want to live there?” White asked. “We should take advantage of available options. That’s why we need the smaller project; we’re moving on to the larger project.” ♦

VOC (volatile organic compounds — bad stuff that outgases into the air) finishes offered a variety of seating — a simple, clean atmosphere. The bustle wasn’t overwhelming and there was no line. My cup of coffee was served immediately in a blue glass cup, making me smile. I do judge a drink, at least partially, by the cup it’s served in. It was hard to choose a pastry from the fresh, local baked goods. Muffins, croissants and other tasty morning options (including gluten-free and vegan options) all looked great. I selected an egg, bacon and chive croissant, served “up.” The pasty was crisp, flaky and fresh. A hard-cooked egg was tucked inside and wrapped in bacon. Green chives sprinkled on top. A perfect breakfast. I have to disclose that I am not a coffee aficionado; I either like it or not. This coffee tasted great. And it was the perfect temperature (I find some spots serve it too hot to enjoy immediately). Drinking my coffee, eating my croissant and people watching with the Ventura Hillsides as a backdrop — this is Ventura living. A word on prices. Coffee and croissant was a hair under $10. While I wish it was a little less, the reality is that this is a fair price, and it’s comparable to corporateowned spots. The fact that Singing Sun is locally owned should be a key factor in choosing which corner your coffee comes from. I followed up the coffee with my chai latte to-go. Yes, they have all the “milk” options. I appreciate that I was asked if I wanted my chai sweet. My “just a little” response was followed flawlessly. Topped with some cinnamon — again I was asked — the chai was the perfect balance of spice and sweet. Even though there is parking in the back, I watched several people park across the street and walk in. In today’s world, I think it speaks to the draw of the experience at Singing Sun that folks are willing to cross Main Street to get their coffee. As I write, a second cup of chai from Singing Sun is calling my name. Ciao. Send in your favorite Ventura County coffee spots — new or tried and true — for review to kimberly@vcreporter.com

tjpompey@gmail.com Zombieland: Double Tap Directed by Ruben Fleischer Starring: Abigail Breslin, Emma Stone, Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg Rated R for bloody violence, language throughout, some drug and sexual content 1 hr., 39 mins.

as it been 10 years since the release of the first Zombieland? My, time does fly. In the meantime, our four stars have gone on to bigger and better things. Abigail Breslin has seen her career take off. Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg have each been nominated for Oscars. Emma Stone took home a golden boy in 2017. Sigh! How the children have grown. So, with such prestigious reputations in Hollywood, why would they return for such a second go around? Hmm. Money. Fun. Money. The question is, why not? If you could do this, have a great time and get paid, wouldn’t you jump at the chance? H-e-double-hockey-sticks-yeah! A decade has passed and our gang of four — Tallahassee (Harrelson), Columbus (Eisenberg), Wichita (Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) — has stuck together as a family. Their goal now is to take back the White House in Washington, D.C. After the usual battles with zombies, they conquer and settle in, each to their own quarters. Tallahassee takes the Oval Office for his man cave. Columbus and Wichita are a couple, so they take the Lincoln Room. Little Rock, however, is grumpy because she has no friends and Tallahassee as her father figure won’t allow her much mingling. Add to this the fact that Wichita is overwhelmed by Columbus’ engagement proposal with . . . wait for it . . . the Hope Diamond. Tired of their present company, the two girls scram with Tallahassee’s modified limo called “the beast,” leaving only a scribbled note. Tallahassee and Columbus commiserate together in a local mall. Well, really, it’s Columbus whining, though

Tallahassee does miss his vehicle. Suddenly, they hear a noise and discover another resident — a ditzy blond in a pink jumpsuit who has been hiding in a freezer in the local Pinkberry Yogurt Shop. Madison (Zoey Deutch) is talky and . . . squeaky. Nails on a chalkboard to Tallahassee, but to Columbus, a reprieve. He’s lonely. She’s horny. They join forces. Then, out of the blue, Wichita comes back to say she’s sorry; that is, until she notices who has moved in. Trouble for Columbus. Even more trouble when Tallahassee learns that Little Rock has absconded with the beast and her hippie boyfriend, Berkeley (Avan Jogia). To find her, they all pile in a green minivan on the road trip to hell. Writers Dave Callaham and Rhett Reese do engage in some satire, but it’s not heavy handed. Rather, it’s a boatload of sight gags and dialogue that passes between passengers. Director Ruben Fleischer, returning to his former chair, allows a little more time for leisure in between zombie battles. Sometimes it threatens to go sappy and cranky, but the addition of new blood keeps it lively. Deutch, Luke Wilson, Rosario Dawson and Thomas Middleditch (Verizon guy aka Flagstaff) all have their moments. From the Hound Dog Hotel to the monster truck Big Fat Death. From the White House to Babylon. Not to mention all the different categories of zombies, especially the newly minted T-800. Terminator! This is not thoughtful humor. This is just plain goofy, but Fleischer knows his way around this stuff. He’s compadres with Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis. You know: the usual useless, thoughtless, weird humor. Not deep, just funny. Call this dumb comedy if you like, but there’s plenty of room in Hollywood for this kind of stuff, if it works. And in this case, it does. So, why see this film? Why not? What else do you have to do that’s as unimportant as seeing zombies get their skulls crushed? Plus, hearing Elvis jokes, zipping around in monster trucks and, oh yeah, a trunk full of music jokes. This is just popcorn-munchy stuff without any higher purpose than having fun. Now I ask you: Is there any better reason you can think of for wasting time and money? I didn’t think so. ♦

This is just plain goofy, but Fleischer knows his way around this stuff.

ADVICE GODDESS

The Rid Carpet

I’

m a 30-something gay guy. When I moved to a new city five years ago, I knew nobody except two female co-workers, who became my first friends. I have since met wonderful, talented, artistic people who are more my style. I no longer work with these ladies, and I’m just not interested in hanging out with them anymore. When they call to get together, I keep saying I’m busy, but they’re not getting the picture. How do I break up with them without being mean? — Trapped

by amy alkon When you break up with a romantic partner, there are comforting cliches you can trot out, like “It’s not you; it’s me,” “You deserve better,” and “We can still be friends.” When you break up with a friend, where do you go with that? “We can still be people who hide behind mall kiosks so they don’t have to speak to each other”? It helps to understand the underpinnings of friendship. We like to think of ourselves as rational and discerning people with very good taste, and naturally, we believe this shapes our choice of friends. In fact, personality psychologist Mitja Back and his colleagues find that a major driver of whom we’re friends with is “mere proximity” — living on the same block, working together, or, in Back’s study, being randomly assigned seats next to each other in a college class. Location, location, location! Really special, huh? Still, maybe you feel a little guilty about exiling these ladies from your life, because you used them to have some somebodies around when you knew nobody. However, they hung out with you willingly. It’s not like you were some odious character they were forced to go to brunch with at gunpoint.

The kindest approach, of course, is to keep distancing yourself and hope they get the message or just give up on trying to get together. You do say that the “take the hint!” approach hasn’t been working. But are their calls and texts so screechingly bothersome that it’s worth it to go all rip-the-Band-Aid-off ? If you decide it is, you could say, “You guys have been so kind to me, and I’ve enjoyed our times together, but I’ve gone through some personal changes,

Same Mold, Same Mold I seem to keep getting together with the same messed up guy over and over again. Basically, the men I’m attracted to all have the same issues (emotionally unavailable, fear of commitment, etc.). Each time, I tell myself I can make things different. How do I stop doing this? — Broken Picker Your problem isn’t being attracted to guys who turn out to be messed up. It’s going forward with them after you discover that. It’s like seeing the sign “SharkInfested Waters” and then saying to yourself, “They probably just say that so the lifeguards don’t have so much work. And I mean, do I really need my arms? Both arms?” Research by psychologist Roy Baumeister on self-regulation — professorese for self-control — finds that it has four components: standards, motivation to meet those standards, self-monitoring to make sure you’re doing that, and the will to control urges to do what you know you shouldn’t be doing. You probably believe you have standards, but chances are you haven’t thought them out to the point that you can tick off what they are. Not having a solid grasp on them

. . . a major driver of whom we’re friends with is “mere proximity” . . . and I don’t think we’re such a great match anymore.” Be prepared: They may press you to tell them more. For maximum kindness, stick to this sort of vague statement. Don’t go all truthful on them: They were human placeholders, the sidewalk furniture of friends, like curbside chairs you dragged home so you wouldn’t have to ask your dates, “Hey, wanna stand in my living room and watch Netflix?”

means you can’t monitor whether you’re following them and take action if you aren’t. Now’s the time to change that. Write down a list of your standards: your must-haves for a guy you’re with, the qualities you can’t do without. When you’re interested in a guy, don’t just hope he hits the marks; ask questions that draw out the sort of man he is and also look at his behavior. If he falls short of your standards, make yourself move on. Yes, make yourself. This will be hardest the first time and if you really like a particular guy. Eventually, it’ll become easier to weed out the guys with issues, though you may need to work on your own before you’re comfortable with guys who’d make you happy. Should you find yourself jonesing for a project, opt for something safe, like gluing elbow macaroni all over your car, as opposed to being like the storm chaser dude who’s all surprised when he gets blown into the next state and impaled by rebar. ♦ (c)2019, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

Singapore has one of the world’s lowest fertility rate. A few years ago, this state of affairs prompted the government to urge Singaporeans to have sex on an annual holiday known as National Day. A new rap song was released in the hope of pumping up everyone’s libidos and instigating a baby boom. It included the lyrics, “Let’s make fireworks ignite / Let’s make Singapore’s birthrate spike.” I have a different reason for encouraging you to seek abundant highquality sex, Aries. According to my analysis, tender orgasmic experiences will profoundly enhance your emotional intelligence in the coming weeks—and make you an excellent decision-maker just in time for your big decisions. (P.S. You don’t necessarily need a partner.)

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

In the 1530s, explorer Jacques Cartier led expeditions from France to the New World. As Europeans often did back then, he and his team were rude and brutish to the indigenous folks who lived there, stealing their land, kidnapping some of them, and slaughtering herds of great auks in a bird sanctuary. Yet there was one winter when Cartier’s marauders got crucial help from their victims, who gave them vitamin C-rich pine needle tea that cured their scurvy. I suspect you Tauruses will embark on quests and journeys in the coming months, and I’m hoping your behavior will be different from Cartier’s. When you arrive in unfamiliar places, be humble, curious, and respectful. Be hesitant to impose your concepts of what’s true, and be eager to learn from the locals. If you do, you’re likely to get rich teachings and benefits equivalent to the pine needle tea.

matic Programmer, a book that helps them develop and refine their code. One popular technique the book offers is “rubber duck deprogramming.” Programmers place a toy rubber duck in front of them, and describe to it the problems they’re having. As they explain each line of code to their very good listener, they may discover what’s amiss. I recommend a similar approach to you as you embark on metaphorically debugging your own program, Gemini. If a rubber duck isn’t available, call on your favorite statue or stuffed animal, or even a photo of a catalytic teacher or relative or spirit.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

Read the following passage from Gabriel García Márquez’s novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. “Gaston was not only a fierce lover, with endless wisdom and imagination, but he was also, perhaps, the first man in the history of the species who had made an emergency landing and had come close to killing himself and his sweetheart simply to make love in a field of violets.” I admire the romantic artistry of Gaston’s dramatic gesture. I applaud his imaginative desire to express his love in a carefully chosen sanctuary filled with beauty. I praise his intense devotion to playful extravagance. But I don’t recommend you do anything quite so extreme in behalf of love during the coming weeks. Being twenty percent as extreme might be just right, though.

weak sh-- will ruin me.” In the coming weeks, Leo, I urge you to practice the exact opposite of Drake’s approach. It’s time to treat yourself to an intense and extended phase of self-care.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

It’s a favorable time to refresh your relationships with your basic sources and to make connections with new basic sources. To spur your creative thought on these matters, I offer the following questions to meditate on. 1. If you weren’t living where you do now, what other place might you like to call home? 2. If you didn’t have the name you actually go by, what other name would you choose? 3. If you had an urge to expand the circle of allies that supports and stimulates you, whom would you seek out? 4. If you wanted to add new foods and herbs that would nurture your physical health and new experiences that would nurture your mental health, what would they be?

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Mushrooms have spores, not seeds. They’re tiny. If you could stack 2,500 of them, they’d be an inch high. On the other hand, they are numerous. A ripe mushroom may release up to 16 million spores. And each spore is so light-weight, the wind can pick it up and fling it long distances. I’ll encourage you to express your power and influence like a mushroom in the coming days: subtle and airy but abundant; light and fine, but relentless and bountiful.

In his song “Diplomatic Immunity,” rapper Drake disparages tranquility and harmony. “I listen to heavy metal for meditation, no silence,” he brags. “My body isn’t much of a sacred temple, with vodka and wine, and sleep at the opposite times,” he declares. Is there a method in his madness? It’s revealed in these lyrics: “All that peace and that unity: all that

“Sometimes the easiest way to get something done is to be a little naive about it,” writes computer engineer Bill Joy. I invite you to consider the value of that perspective, Scorpio—even though you’re the least likely sign in all the zodiac to do so. Being naive

LEO

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

just doesn’t come naturally to you; you often know more than everyone else around you. Maybe you’ll be more receptive to my suggestion if I reframe the task. Are you familiar with the Zen Buddhist concept of “beginner’s mind”? You wipe away your assumptions and see everything as if it were the first time you were in its presence.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Is it always a bad thing to be lost? To wander in the unknown without a map? I’d like to propose a good version of being lost. It requires you to be willing to give up your certainties, to relinquish your grip on the comforting dogmas that have structured your world—but to do so gladly, with a spirit of cheerful expectancy and curiosity. It doesn’t require you to be a macho hero who feels no fear or confusion. Rather, you have faith that life will provide blessings that weren’t possible until you got lost.

CAPRICORN

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

If you’ve been having dreams or fantasies that the roof is sinking or the walls are closing in, you should interpret it as a sign that you should consider moving into a more spacious situation. If you have been trapped within the narrow confines of limited possibilities, it’s time to break free and flee to a wide open frontier. In general, Pisces, I urge you to insist on more expansiveness in everything you do, even if that requires you to demolish cute little mental blocks that have tricked you into thinking small.

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

“Worrying is the most natural and spontaneous of all human functions,” wrote science educator Lewis Thomas. “Let’s acknowledge this, perhaps even learn to do it better.” I agree with him! And I think it’s an ideal time for you to learn how to worry more effectively, more potently, and with greater artistry. What might that look like? First, you wouldn’t feel shame or guilt about worrying. You wouldn’t regard it as a failing. Rather, you would raise your worrying to a higher power. You’d wield it as a savvy tool to discern which situations truly need your concerned energy and which don’t.

AQUARIUS

that thought, Aquarius. The bad news is that you are just now beginning to feel a wound that was inflicted some time ago. But that’s also the good news, because it means the wound will no longer be hidden and unknowable. And because you’ll be fully aware of it, you’ll be empowered to launch the healing process. I suggest you follow your early intuitions about how best to proceed with the cure.

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

“Some wounds go so deep that you don’t even feel them until months, maybe years, later,” wrote Aquarian author Julius Lester. Pay attention to

Homework: You don’t have to feel emotions that others try to manipulate you into feeling. You are free to be who you want to be. FreeWillAstrology.com

Commonly known as: 38 Isabel Avenue #96, Camarillo, CA 93012 The sale will be held at AT THE MAIN ENTRANCE TO THE GOVERNMENT CENTER HALL OF JUSTICE, 800 SOUTH VICTORIA AVENUE, VENTURA, CA 93033.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling $36,151.06 [10% of the Secretary’s bid] in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. Each oral bid need not be accompanied by a deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $36,151.06 must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the high bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveyancing fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD Field Office representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD field office Representative, offer the Property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant. The amount that must be paid if the Mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $361,510.63, as of 11/20/2019, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in

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.
