Before you choose a treatment program, see why TRIBE was voted Best Rehab in Ventura County Full and partial day programs for mental health and substance use disorders

“Our daughter found Tribe, but a short while after starting she walked out the door late one night. The director called us and our hearts sank. We asked if she was kicked out. “We don’t kick out alcoholics for alcoholic behavior,” she said. Nancy stood by her words and touched our hearts.”

Jill O., Oxnard “The staff is caring, inclusive, understanding and yet totally direct, transparent and candid. I LOVE being a part of this Tribe!”

Jamie L., Canyon Country “After 10 years of multiple “rehab” facilities and lots and lots of money wasted, FINALLY found a place that works!”

Jon M., Westlake Village “During the most painful and dangerous turn in our son’s journey, Tribe offered what I’ve not seen in other programs – the unbridled presence of genuine Love that guides their professional process. As a licensed therapist for over 30 years, I found this healing bridge of love built a stronger connection with his authentic self.”

Gavin F., Ventura “We are seeing results with Tribe! So proud of our daughter.” Pam H., Canyon Country

“Our 30-year old son has conquered his 12 year addiction to alcohol! Tribe is a strong program with a lot of love, medicine and intense immersion in advanced techniques.” L. B., Malibu “After attending multiple rehabs, Tribe is the place that worked for me. I’m currently 518 days sober. Nancy helped my family understand the disease process in depth, and she reconnected me with my sister and my parents.

Today I have genuine relationships with my immediate family, something I could never have imagined prior to Tribe.” Kathryn H, Carpinteria “My son thrived during his stay at Tribe. The atmosphere, meetings, healthy living and activities provided the conditions necessary for a healthy recovery.”

J.T., Mission Viejo “Addiction is messy and far from perfect…I owe Nancy my life. The individualized care and therapy is incomparable. EMDR, individual and family sessions, music and art therapy, psycho education by PhD holders. I used to not be able to leave my house, now I’m a fully functioning, contributing member of society.”

Debbie D., Ventura

“The problem is not always about drug addiction, but about self-esteem.”

Jason J., Ventura “Thanks so much TRIBE for helping us get our wonderful son back to sanity!”

Liz B., Malibu “Tribe has one of the most innovative approaches to drug and alcohol Elizabeth K., Santa Cruz rehabilitation.”

“I have seen the magic of hope alive in this program and would trust them with my life. Tribe is a gift to our community.”

Jen M., Manhattan Beach “Nancy is able to pull the covers off the client, exposing the co-occurring mental illness that usually is the source of addiction. Tribe has created an environment of containment that is safe, caring and filled with possibilities for growth. Thank you Tribe!

Trudie T., Ojai

“Out of 11 rehabs, finally my son has found a program and “home” that works.”

Melissa S., Arroyo Grande “The 3-day workshop with clients and their families is a life changing event.”

Roberta S., Ventura

OPINION Editorial

It ain’t over till it’s over

T

he landing of Apollo 11 on the moon and astronauts walking on it on July 20, 1969, is typically known as the greatest achievement of mankind. The world was a different place back then.

The quest for moon landing domination began in 1961 with then-President John F. Kennedy; a so-called “space race” with the Soviet Union, which had apparently embarrassed the United States after sending the first cosmonaut to outer space in 1961. Meanwhile, in the same year, Kennedy was escalating U.S. military involvement in the Vietnam War (which had begun in 1955) with the intention of preventing the expansion of Communism.

The number of troops sent to Vietnam in 1961 are as follows: May, 400 American Green Beret Special Advisors; October, 200,000 men from six divisions of the military and more than 16,000 special advisors.

Cost of war by October 1961: $1 million per day.

By 1969, Apollo 11 was ready to launch, captivating audiences around the globe.

It was surely one great leap for mankind.

Meanwhile, in 1968, the Vietnam War racked up its highest annual U.S. casualty count at 16,899; by the end of 1969, close to 50,000 U.S. military service members had died in the Vietnam War. Total U.S. death count by 1975, when it officially ended: 58,318. The death toll of Vietnamese fighters and civilians varies widely from hundreds of thousands to over 3 million, depending on the source. The exponential impacts of exposure to 18 million gallons of Agent Orange, however, take a back seat to the casualties of violence. The cost of the Vietnam War: $141 billion, according to a 1975 New York Times article. Calculating for inflation today, estimates show it would be close to $1 trillion in 2019. But hey, we made it to the moon. Too bad Kennedy never got to see the culmination of his efforts for both feats, an insight surely we would all learn and gain from today.

Flash forward, 50 years later, when we celebrate the accomplishment of the moon landing, even as our country seems to be in another state of disarray. While we do currently still have wars being waged over

Letters Keep pets and people together I think it’s high time that legislation pass that would require landlords to allow pets.

Since 1982 they have been required to allow children. It’s a double standard because children make more noise and cause more damage. I know from experience because I lived at 790 Cedar Street and that apartment complex had noisy children. The resident manager’s grandson urinated in the parking lot in mid-

efforts to stop terrorism — Brown University’s Costs of War Project estimates that at least 480,000 people have been directly killed by violence over the course of these conflicts, more than 244,000 of them civilians — we now have the iPhone, humankind’s greatest achievement in technological obsession, along with social media to air our grievances about the atrocities of war and the pride we have in landing and walking on the moon first. Meanwhile, suicide and overdose death rates continue to rise, cancer diagnoses continue to alarm millions and the country is about as polarized as any living person remembers it to be. But hey, we still have freedom of the press and the Kardashians?

Despite its contributions to the historic Apollo 11 mission, parents in Simi Valley have been fighting for a full cleanup of Rocketdyne for decades. A nuclear reactor at Santa Susana Field Laboratory had a partial meltdown in 1959, 60 years ago this month, but it was also the birth place of the rocket boosters for Apollo 11 and other spacecraft. Though parents have come together to voice their concerns over the unusual number of rare pediatric cancers of families living near Rocketdyne, it apparently now takes the Kardashians to push the federal government to clean up the site. Kourtney and Kim have added it to their list of causes for press conferences.

Understandably, no good deed goes unpunished, but really, why would celebrity take precedence over human suffering for attention? In this day and age, most people would agree, “we will take what we can get.” Sometimes, it just feels like a circus.

Moving forward into the next generation of achievement, there is so much to learn from the past. But what is most critical? What is the accomplishment of humanity in light of so much suffering and death?

Hope. Hope is our greatest accomplishment since the dawn of man. Without it, certain grief, sorrow, even death. With it, tremendous potential to change the mindset where we instead focus on living our best lives, together.

daylight in front of his grandson the manager.

This is an excerpt from the AAOA about whether or not to allow pets Reasons for Pets: Numbers of Pet Owners If you’re not renting to pet owners, you’re missing out on a huge portion of the population. According to the APPA or American Pet Products Association has determined that Americans own 95.6 million cats and 83.3 million dogs. To put that in terms of households, 45.3 million households own at least one cat and 56.7 million households own at least one dog. If you don’t allow pets, you’re missing out on potential renters.

Reasons Against Pets: Pets Damage Property The problem most landlords face when

a tenant moves out is the cost of replacing and repairing items damaged by pets. This includes replacing carpets, fixing scratches on doors, chewed items, and general damage.

This is indeed a potential problem, especially if the tenant has poorly behaved pets. Have pet rent and a damage deposit should be able to mitigate those issues.

This reason is very weak. That’s what a deposit is for! Any damage caused by pets gets figured in to the deposit.

Landlord’s Liability In some circumstances, landlords have been held liable for aggressive or vicious dogs. For that reason, some landlords have restricted the breeds to what is outside of so-called “dangerous breeds” or even have limited size when it comes to pets.

However, the landlord’s liability is limited.

According to Nolo’s legal encyclopedia, the landlord can only be held responsible if the landlord knew the dog was vicious and did not have the dog removed, or the landlord cared for or kept the dog.

If you’re concerned about the potential dogs’ behavior, you could insist that the owner produce a record of the dog’s Canine Good Citizen® title that is awarded by the American Kennel Club or AKC. This title is offered to all breeds and mixed breeds by the AKC and demonstrates the dog’s ability to behave correctly in a variety of different circumstances. This does not explain why landlords don’t allow cats. In fact there is a dog who doesn’t even live here. He lives with people who are homeowners and he frequently gets out and defecates on the property (I live in a fourplex). So even if my landlord didn’t accept pets, Here is a link to an entire article h t t p s : / / w w w. h u f f i n g t o n p o s t . c o m . au/2016/09/25/why-most-landlords-fear-tenants-with-pets_a_21477607/ I met Todd Gloria at Balboa Park while he was speaking on an unrelated topic. I approached him after the event was over and he agreed with some of my points. I mentioned that Petco might help him with his re-election and he said, “what you are saying is a felony.” I had no idea that it was illegal for companies to donate. I thought lobbying was perfectly legal.

“We were doing stress analysis, calculations to prove how strong everything was and to make changes to

n July 20, 1969, astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to step on the moon. As they touched down on the lunar surface, Armstrong famously delivered words that would echo through the ages: “That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.” Fifty years later, on the anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, celebrations are being held around the world, including in Moorpark, where organizers are hoping to rekindle the awe of the moment.

On Saturday, July 20, the Ventura County Astronomical Society (VCAS) will host an Apollo 11: 50th Anniversary Star Party at the Moorpark College Observatory.

The family-friendly event will feature video clips, models and special guests, and will give attendees an opportunity to share their own memories of the successful mission that began on July 16, 1969, and ended when the astronauts returned safely to earth on July 24.

Keith Salvas, chair of publicity for VCAS, was 8 years old when Walter Cronkite broadcast into his living room, televising the lunar landing. Salvas says his excitement was mostly that of the adults in the room, too young to understand the significance of the event. Now, Salvas says he understands why they were excited.

“My first memory of America doing something extremely significant was the lunar landing,” said Salvas. “It started out as a competition with the Soviet Union. We wanted to make sure space, our next frontier, was a peaceful place to go, not a militarized zone.”

The VCAS’ annual open house coincides with the Apollo 11 anniversary, which Salvas says offers Ron DeMuri, Aeronautical Engineer, standing by the F-1 engine at the a great opportunity to answer the Rocketdyne Facility in Canoga Park/Simi Valley, California, one of five question at the core of stargazing, boosters built at Rocketdyne for the many Apollo missions.

MCGRATH BEACH CAMPGROUND CLOSED DUE TO FLOODING

Officials announced on July 10 that the campground at McGrath State Beach is closed due to flooding.

“I have no idea as to what is the cause. Typically we don’t see intrusion into the campground after a good winter of rain until September or October, and then it usually takes weeks to get to the level we had show up in two days,” said Tyson Butzke, chief ranger.

He explained that water typically backs up every year after significant rainfall, which causes the water to breach over the sand bar at the estuary. The nearby Ventura Water Reclamation Plant has a permit to discharge millions of gallons of treated waste water into the Santa Clara River and that water will eventually “back up . . . and at a certain point floods the park,” said Butzke.

The campground will be closed until the waters rescind and any needed repairs are completed.

Beach access is still open through Surfer’s Knoll in the Ventura Port District. For current conditions and park status call 805-968-1033.

FREE FURNITURE FOR YOUNG ADULTS LEAVING FOSTER SYSTEM

Young adults leaving the foster care system will receive free furniture and other necessities as they transition to life on their own.

Aspiranet, a statewide organization supporting former foster youth, is partnering with Ashley HomeStore in Oxnard to implement its Transitional Aged Youth (TAY) program. The TAY program provides an apartment and furniture to young adults and offers free classes like résumé building.

Through the partnership, beds, dressers, sofas and other household essentials are provided at no cost.

State and local representatives will be on hand on Thursday, July 25, at 11 a.m. at Ashley HomeStore, 1721 Ventura Blvd. in Oxnard as the furniture is presented to hear from the young adults about what being in the foster care system was like for them.

SPAN HOSTING SPAY AND NEUTER CLINICS IN VENTURA AND FILLMORE

GRANT FUNDS FOR CSUCI TEACHER SUPPORT, WATER SAFETY PROGRAMS

California State University, Channel Islands, hosts a statewide program called the California Physical Education-Health Project, aimed at supporting new physical education teachers across the state. The project has received a $51,300 grant aimed at supporting teachers in underserved areas working in the physical education and health fields. Some of the grant funds will be used to enhance the New Teacher Academy at CSUCI, a week-long training for PE teachers to help prepare them for their first year of teaching.

Another grant was awarded to the CSUCI Channel Islands Boating Center, from the California Division of Boating and Waterways, a state agency responsible for ensuring public access to California’s waterways and promoting safe recreational boating. The $42,000 grant will support the center’s safe boating education program for local low-income kids.

The Channel Islands Boating Center is open to the public year round and offers popular summer camps related to boating, the Channel Islands and the local marine environment. www.ciboating.org.

AUG. 1 DEADLINE FOR GRANT FUNDS FOR ARTISTS IMPACTED BY THOMAS FIRE

The Ventura County Arts Council and CreativityWorks have launched the Creative Community Thomas Fire Recovery Grant program, providing financial assistance to artists who suffered losses related to the Thomas Fire and resulting debris flows.

Impacted working artists are encouraged to apply for grants ranging from $250 to $2,500.

‘A Big Deal’

DEMOCRATS IN DISTRICT 3 AIMING TO FLIP BACK SUPERVISOR SEAT, WIN MAJORITY AT COUNTY LEVEL On Thursday, July 10, The Greater Oxnard Organization of Democrats (GOOD) Club provided an opportunity for the public to hear from the three Democratic candidates running for the three Ventura County Supervisor seats up for grabs in 2020, with a focus on getting a Democrat back into a seat that went to a Republican in 2016.

“Many of our members are interested in flipping District 3 back to a Democrat following the loss in 2016,” said Steven Auclair, president of the GOOD Club.

He was referring to the election of County Supervisor Kelly Long, District 3, in 2016, a seat that was long held by Kathy Long (no relation), a Democrat.

Kelly Long, a registered Republican, won the election narrowly over a Democratic candidate in 2016. Three seats constitute a majority on the fiveseat Board of Supervisors.

Elections for county supervisors are officially nonpartisan, but the 2020 race is shaping up to mirror 2016 with party affiliation becoming a focus of the race. In California prior to 1990, political parties were barred from endorsing and financially supporting local candidates in races that were nonpartisan, such as school boards, city councils, Superior Court judges and county supervisors.

That prohibition was lifted by a court decision from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in 1990, which said that barring that support was a violation of free speech. The same idea and rationale for the decision was found again in 2010 for the Citizens United case, which allowed corporations and nonprofits free speech protection regarding political communications. News reports in 1990 reveal that those who wanted parties barred from these local endorsements feared corruption.

“It’s supposed to be nonpartisan, but that’s not the way it works,” said Shawn Terris, chair of the endorsement committee of the Democratic Club of Ventura. “I think most voters want to know [party affiliation], some don’t.

The voters that don’t care are the ones registered as ‘decline to state,’ they are not affiliated with a party, they have no loyalty, their focus is on the candidates themselves.” She emphasized the importance of the District 3 Supervisor seat. “It’s a big deal because we want to get that seat back from Kelly Long.”

As of July 16, only four candidates have thrown their hat into the race for the three open county supervisor seats.

Incumbent Kelly Long, a Republican, will defend her seat in District 3, which she won for the first time in 2016, edging out a seat long held by a Democrat. Long’s opponent is Dr. Kim Marra Stephenson,

an educator from Camarillo and a Democrat, who is running for office for the first time. Carmen Ramirez, currently mayor pro-tem of Oxnard, is running for District 5, a seat open because John Zaragoza (Democrat) is termed out.

Finally, Matt LaVere, a Democrat and current mayor of Ventura, is seeking the District 1 seat, held by Steve Bennett, also a Democrat who is termed out.

The final deadline for registering with the Ventura County Clerk/Recorders office to be on the ballot is December 6 at 5 p.m.

“This election cycle is particularly important as Supervisor [Steve] Bennet and Supervisor [John] Zaragoza are termed out. We are working to raise awareness that the primary has moved to March and that supervisorial elections can be finished at that point,” said Auclair. The primary is usually in June, but has been moved to March 3, 2020, following the passage of statewide legislation signed by then-Gov. Jerry Brown in 2017 after the election of U.S. President Donald Trump. The club will meet to vote on endorsements in August.

Auclair said the GOOD Club is the official Democratic Party representative organization for Oxnard, Port Hueneme and the surrounding unincorporated areas, including El Rio and Silver Strand.

“In total, we represent nearly 50,000 Democrats. We are rather unique among the clubs in the county in that all three of the 2020 supervisorial races touch areas within our purview,” said Auclair. “District 1 covers the area around River Park.

District 3 covers a part of south Oxnard, the entirety of Port Hueneme, and some of Oxnard near Hemlock. District 5 falls entirely within Oxnard.”

The GOOD Club Forum was an excellent opportunity “to discuss critical issues like accessibility, affordability and sustainability,” said Stephenson about the town hall meeting. “People are sick of band-aid fixes. We need collaborative, long-term problem solving.”

As of deadline, the Ventura County Republican club did not respond to requests for comment. According to its website, the club is the official Republican Party representative organization in Ventura County “working directly with Ventura County’s local Republican candidates.” More information at www.venturagop.org.

The GOOD Club meets the second Wednesday of every month at 6:30 p.m. at Fresh and Fabulous, 221 W. Fifth Street in Oxnard. Meetings are open to the public. More information at www. greateroxnarddemocrats.com.

J

im Hensley, former Port Hueneme City Councilman and social and environmental advocate, died Monday, July 8, with his son Greg and daughter-in-law Jolinn at his side. Hensley was wellknown in the local community for his diehard persistence in searching for truth and understanding, sometimes in ways that were not well received though many admired his tenacity. During his tenure on City Council, he helped pave the way to access to recreational cannabis, second city to Ojai to do so in Ventura County.

Following his death, the community shared their thoughts on knowing Jim Hensley: I worked with Jim for many years in various elections, as he was an active member of the Greater Oxnard Organization of Democrats.

Jim was a well-known advocate for Democratic Candidates. In 2004, he and one employee of Lois Capps ran the entire Democratic election effort out of an office in Port Hueneme’s Moll Plaza. I worked with him and that is when we became friends.

In addition, before moving to Port Hueneme, he lived on Silver Strand beach, and worked tirelessly for protection of public access to Channel Islands Harbor rather than allow developers to use all the land for private development. He pushed hard to re-open La Janelle Beach, an easily accessible beach for pedestrians and vehicles, closed by the harbor, which claimed safety issues.

Jim was a dedicated supporter of the military, having served many years as a telephone lineman in Alaska for the U.S. Army. He also was a businessman, having spent many years in the asphalt paving business with his son, Greg, who lives locally with his wife and Greg’s adopted, disabled son.

Jim also had a daughter, Tammy (deceased) who had been homeless. Jim worked tirelessly to try to arrange housing for her, but she was resistant, and each time she was housed, she would run away.

Her refusal to get treatment for her health problems eventually caught up with her. There is another son, I believe, who lives out of state.

Jim’s pride and joy was his parrot, Wally, whom he rescued from a woman who could not manage him and kept him in a closet. Jim socialized him and Wally came to be the main attraction in his home.

Lauraine Effress Oxnard I knew Jim for approximately 20 years. I worked with him on community issues when I worked in supervisor Flynn’s office and when we were on several boards together, specifically Port Hueneme water agency, Ventura Regional Sanitation District, Channel Islands Beach Community services district. Jim

cared very much about people and worked very hard for their benefit.

He also believed in efficiency in government. His philosophy was the more efficient in the use of funds the better the benefits would improve the lives of people.

He was a good friend and will be missed.

Jim Estomo Hollywood Beach

I met Jim while attending Rio School Board meetings in the late 1990s later at Oxnard City Council meetings and finally we both served on the Ventura Regional Sanitation District Board as representatives for each of our elected City Councils.

He was a no-nonsense guy questioning the expenditure of public resources to gain maximum value of the public’ purse. I felt he was an asset to serve the public and his City well while in the position, often complete stories and facts never see the light of day.

A side note, he often presented himself at local City government meetings advocating to “WATER PROOF CHILDREN” via swimming lessons for kids and the hopped for expansion of public swimming pools.

He will be missed.

Bert E Perello Oxnard City Councilmember District #1 People may not have agreed with him always, but one had to admire that he would fight for what he believed in. Many years of public service. God bless his family at this time.

Linda Gray Oxnard I had the pleasure of knowing Jim Hensley for 20 some years. Be it through his City Council position, the League of United Latin American Citizens or his person, Jim always wanted to empower those who needed strength and improve our community. Jim has left the world better. He will be missed.

So happy together

NEW FOSTER AGENCY PROGRAM FOCUSES ON REUNITING FAMILIES

BY ALICIA DOYLE | ALICIA@ALICIADOYLE.COM In 2012, Manny Arroyo’s drug and alcohol addiction led to domestic violence in his home, leading to the loss of his three young sons, Damian, Adrian and Fabian.

“It was a downward spiral for our family,” recalled Arroyo, 34, of Oxnard.

Through family members and police officers, referrals and reports started coming to Ventura County Human Services Agency’s Children and Family Services (CFS). He and his wife were separated, “but I kept going over there, disrespecting the house, so they got removed from her because she failed to protect . . . so my kids finally got removed.”

He was put on probation, but decided to run from his probation officer, not following through or turning himself in. On Nov. 25, 2012, he was arrested at his house, “and that was a turning point in my life where I had to decide whether I wanted to be a father and change my life or continue

the path that I was going.”

His three sons were placed with his ex-wife’s father, “and it was really a struggle because the visitation was really difficult for me,” Arroyo continued. “There was no communication during the week except one-hour visits twice a week, and that was really tough because I’ve always been really close to my kids.”

During his incarceration, he decided to get help, and his cellmate told him about Genesis Sober Living’s program called Dads and Kids.

“He said that would be a great fit for me because they allowed kids to go visit there, and it would help me with my case plan . . . that I had to follow from CFS,” Arroyo remembered. “And in that place I found the structure that I needed, the foundation that was going to hold my life together to this day.”

Curtains up for new theater companies in Ventura County

by Emily Dodi

‘‘It’s

risky,” Tom Eubanks says of the theater. He should know. A writer and director, Eubanks has been a figure in the Ventura County theater community for decades. “It changes every time you do it.

That’s what I like about it. I like the risk factor.” His latest project is the Beacon Theater Company, which he recently founded with Steve Grumette, Anna Kotula and Howard Leader, themselves seasoned members of the theater community.

With all the risks involved — and maybe even a little bit because of them — they are diving in with “the insidious intention of creating an epidemic of live theater.”

They are not alone.

This summer will see the inaugural productions of at least three new theater companies in Ventura County. In addition to the Beacon Theater Company, there is Unity Theatre Collective, founded by Laura Covault and Layla Perez, and Center Stage Players and Arts Repertory, founded by Noah and Renee Jacqueline Skultety.

Unity Theatre Collective was the first to launch a full production. In June they debuted a “gender-swapping take” on Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest at Namba Performing Arts Space in Ventura. Covault, a professor of theater at California State Uni-

versity, Channel Islands, admitted that she and Perez, a CSUCI alum, knew they were taking on an ambitious project by starting their own theater company. “I usually have big ideas that sound crazy,” admits Covault, “but my business partner [Perez] said, ‘Let’s do it!’ ” Together they created a company dedicated to being “an open door for every person to experience performance pieces that promote social change and inspire insight and empathy.”

They found the perfect venue in Namba, which is ideally suited for intimate, immersive performances. “I love immersive theater,” says Covault, who adds that it makes “the audience your partner.” For Earnest, the audience sat at cabaret tables while the action took place around them. To further get them in the proper frame of mind, the audience was served a traditional English tea and the actors sometimes spoke directly to them and even handed them a prop or two. The production featured genderswapped roles, actors playing multiple characters and characters in a same-sex marriage, an homage to Oscar Wilde, who was imprisoned for being gay.

The production was a success. What comes next is yet to be decided. The company will announce its 2020 season soon. Whatever the future holds, Unity Theatre Collective vows to stay true to its mission. “We’ll continue to flip classic plays and address social issues and give voice to the marginalized,” says Covault.

The Beacon Theater Company also kicked

off at Namba. On July 12, they premiered the first production: Blue/Orange, a dark comedy

by Joe Penhall that won the Olivier Award for Best New Play. Billed as “an incendiary tale of race, madness and a Darwinian power struggle,” the play revolves around a young man claiming to be the son of Idi Amin, the Ugandan dictator. After Blue/Orange, the Beacon Theater Company is set to present “a surprise” production in September followed by Walter Cronkite Is Dead in November.

Eubanks and his partners hope to find a venue they can call their own, but for the foreseeable future they’re part of a thriving group of artists who transform the intimate, open space at Namba into worlds of their own making. Jeffrey Willerth, Namba’s director, says the intimacy of the space creates a very unique experience for the audience. “Every performance creates a participatory environment.” He judges the success of each show by the audience’s reaction. “Are they beaming?”

He asks. As for Unity Theatre Collective’s first outing, Willerth says it was “spectacular.” He expects the “deeply personal, morally charged” Blue/Orange to be equally memorable.

A few miles away in Camarillo, Noah and Renee Jacqueline Skultety recently founded the Center Stage Players and Arts Repertory.

“I wanted to do something fulfilling and I love theater. Theater changed my life.” says Noah Skultety, an actor, musician and former member of the Kingsmen Shakespeare Company. His wife, Renee Jacqueline, trained at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York and has performed off-Broadway and throughout Ventura County. In September 2018, they sold their share of Twenty88, a restaurant in Camarillo, because they wanted to give back to the community by creating an allinclusive theater company. Their goal is to “put the community back in community theater and produce the finest quality productions.”

The first show is Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, which will premiere on Aug. 2 at the Bright Room at Rock City Studios in Camarillo. It will be a fully immersive experience, with 360 degree projections on the walls, designed to make the audience feel like they’re in the middle of the action. In November, CSPA presents Annie. Although the 2020 season hasn’t been finalized, the Skultetys plan on doing one Shakespeare play and several musicals. Next summer the company will launch a youth program. Whenever possible, there will be blind casting and actors with disabilities are welcome. “Everyone is welcome,” says Skultety, saying that CSPA “is more than just a theater. It gives everyone a home — a family.”

Theater may be risky, but isn’t that what makes it so worthwhile? As the Beacon Theater Company points out on its website, Thespis, the first actor, was a risk taker. He dared to step out from the chorus. Let’s applaud these theater companies as they step out into their own. More than that, let’s go see what they ✦ have to offer.

Blue/Orange through July 28 at Namba Performing Arts Space, 47 S. Oak St., Ventura. For more information call 805-233-6965 or visit nambaarts.com.

Viva la Fiesta!

The Camarillo Fiesta and Street Fair kicks off this week

by Alicia Doyle

alicia@aliciadoyle.com

L

ive music performed by 20 bands, more than 200 vendors and 19 carnival rides are just a glimpse of what makes this year’s Camarillo Fiesta and Street Fair so unique.

“It’s a highly entertaining event — not just food and vendors and music,” said Mike Morgan, president of the Camarillo Fiesta Association. “We’ll have a large classic car show, and we’re going to have a military vehicle show from the bases. It’s also free admission.”

Up to 30,000 people are expected to attend this year’s fiesta, which began in 1964 when the City of Camarillo incorporated. To celebrate the city’s new status, then newly-elected councilwoman Tweedy Rouce organized the beginnings of the Camarillo Fiesta in honor of her father-in-law, Adolfo Camarillo. At the time, the event was held in the fall to honor two major events: Adolfo Camarillo’s birthday, which was Oct. 28, 1864; and the city’s official incorporation on Oct. 22, 1964.

Morgan, who has been involved with the Camarillo Fiesta with his wife since 1987, attributes the success of the annual event to making it different each year.

“We don’t always have the same thing,” he said. For instance, this year, “we have many different rides; and our car show is differCOMMENTS: Write the for number on the ad that ent this year with an area the Thunderbird Club.

And while guests are enjoying the music, there will be refreshment near at hand: “We also have two wine and beer gardens, one next to each stage,” Morgan said.

For all the guests, “to accommodate the traffic, we’ll have parking throughout the neighborhoods, parking at the shopping centers and trolleys coming in from other areas into the event,” Morgan said.

Free shuttle service to and from the festivities will be available at several locations in Camarillo, including the Metrolink Station, Ponderosa Center next to Harley’s Camarillo Bowl, Camarillo City Hall, the library and Premier America Credit Union.

Morgan said the ultimate goal of the Camarillo Fiesta is to put on a great show “so people in the City of Camarillo and elsewhere have a fun activity to go to, while celebrating the heritage of our city. We want people to have fun and enjoy the event.” ✦

Music for trying times Bad Religion to perform at the Majestic Ventura Theater

by Bill Forman for Last Word Features

T

homas Paine, the 18th-century author of The Age of Reason, once claimed that arguing with someone who’d renounced the use of reason is as effective as “administering medicine to the dead or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.”

Bad Religion, as its name suggests, has no interest in converting atheists. But on its new album, Age of Unreason, the L.A. pop-punk stalwart does share a similar exasperation with what Paine famously called the “times that try men’s souls.”

The album is the band’s first collection of new music in six years. Not surprisingly, it includes more than a few lessthan-veiled references to our current commander in chief.

“I don’t believe in Golden Ages, or presidents that put kids in cages,” sings frontman Greg Graffin in “End of History,” one of the album’s few songs to approach the three-minute mark.

But Bad Religion’s primary target isn’t President Donald Trump so much as that special combination of bigotry, nationalism and apathy that continues to enable him, which is part of the reason last year’s sarcastic shout-along single,

“The Kids Are Alt-Right,” didn’t make it onto the album.

That may come as a surprise to those who recall guitarist Brett Gurewitz’s widely circulated quote about the band having “an album’s worth of ‘F*** Trump’ songs” up its sleeve.

“I hope it’s not that singular,” said Bad Religion bassist, vocalist and co-founder Jay Bentley. “In my mind, using Trump as a metaphor works for many things, but historically we haven’t been too focused on any single individual.

Because in 10 years’ time, who the f*** is gonna give a s*** about Donald Trump?”

Musically, the album finds the band working for the first time with Carlos de la Garza, the GRAMMY-winning producer whose recent credits include Paramore, Ziggy Marley and Cherry Glazerr. But the British punk and L.A. hardcore influences, which have worked so well for bands like Bad Religion and their less-cerebral Northern California counterparts, Green Day, are still very much in evidence.

And Bentley, who holds the distinction of playing on all but two of the band’s 17 studio albums, is uncharacteristically enamored with the results.

“I’ve listened to it many times and that’s rare for me, because I don’t like us,” he said, only half joking. “And that’s

because I’m in the band, so I’m too close. It’s really hard for me not to listen with that critical ear, instead of just enjoying it. So when I can just sort of tap my foot along and go, ‘Damn, this is good,’ that’s shocking to me. And this album is front-loaded with great songs, and then by the end, it’s just screaming.”

While Age of Unreason is best listened to loud, standout tracks like “Old Regime” and “What Tomorrow Brings” also showcase the three-part harmonies that Bad Religion originally modeled after their favorite Orange County punk band.

“If I’m to be brutally honest, we got all our ideas from watching The Adolescents, who were all phenomenal vocalists,” said Bentley. “We were also fans of Crosby, Stills and Nash, Elvis Costello and other music where background harmonies were important, which wasn’t so much the case in punk rock. So when we saw The Adolescents, we thought, ‘If they can do it, we can do it.’ It just took us a long time to figure it out.”

F Bad Religion performs on Friday, July 19, at 9 p.m. at the Ventura Theater, 26 S. Chestnut St., Ventura. For more information, call 805-653-0721 or visit www.venturatheater.net.

Ah,

ferent, a little off the beaten path, a

Signature: __________________________ loving romp through fresh fields of country music.

All placed (mostly) in Glasgow. Yup. Scotland, where there really is a bar named The Grand Ole Opry, and folks honestly do love their country music. As they would say in my native Tennessee: Whoo boy, get a load a’ this.

Now, let me tell you right off: This film is in English, but not English as we understand it. It’s Scottish, and not the rolling brogue of Sean Connery’s 007. This is working-class street slang that rolls off the tongue and bounces off the ear. You won’t understand it. Not even a little. But that’s OK. Just watch the pictures. You’ll figure out the rest, and the music is full-out Nashville.

Rose-Lynn Harlan (Jessie Buckley) is one of those people you can love but not live with. She has the energy of a nuclear power plant. Unfortunately, the explosive impact on her family is like Chernobyl.

Just released from a year’s prison stint for selling heroin, she returns to live with her mother, Marion (Julie Walters), the caretaker of her kids. Rose must be reintroduced to her daughter, Wynonna (Daisy Littlefield), and son, Lyle (Adam Mitchell). They’re like cats, eyeing each other suspiciously.

In the meantime, Rose has an obsessive dream to take her country voice to Nashville, and she doesn’t mind ramming her way through songs on stage at her former bar, The Grand Ole Opry, even if someone else happens

to be performing.

Broke and out of prison, Rose is lower than working class in Glasgow. Under strict probation, Rose’s mother manages to help her get a housecleaning job at a local estate where she meets Susannah (Sophie Okonedo), a posh English housewife.

One day, Susannah’s kids come home and catch Rose singing. They tell their mom, and she asks Rose to perform. When Susannah learns of Rose’s talent, she decides to help give her dream a push. After all, she’s got the means. Rose has the talent. It’s a great match, except for this little glitch involving Rose’s children and her past prison record. But for Rose, mum’s the word.

Ah, well, so you think you’ve guessed this story?

Except director Tom Harper and screenwriter Nicole Taylor don’t take you down the typical rags-to-riches path. There’s more to this story than just another Coal Miner’s Daughter. You gotta break hearts to be real country.

Buckley is a flaming torch. She walks the line between her dream and her family and you’re never quite sure if she’s going to touch ground or fly off into a country pasture. Walters is equally stellar as the mother who holds the rope tight on her wild colt of a daughter. With that rope fraying, the children staring and the law pushing in, Rose doesn’t have a lot of wiggle room. But she can’t stop singing either. So what does that get you?

For one thing, it’s a beautiful backdrop for country music, a full lineup of artists who contribute: Chris Stapleton, Hank Snow, Emmylou Harris and so many others. With the ragged edge provided by Buckley’s performances, these songs take on new depth.

You may be wondering why you would go see such a film. Glasgow, country music, Scottish street brogue?

Because it’s wild, unpredictable, funny and, most of all, it’s a story that captures the dual existence between a girl’s dream and the true grit of a woman’s life. It’s got everything: Love, sex, hardship, lies, drugs, booze and real possibilities, if Rose could just learn to fly straight.

Then again, it’s what we love about her. She’s like summer fireworks. They go up in the air, but you never quite know where they’re going to land. ♦

Palates put to the test during wine tasting competition

by Gwendolyn Alley

I

n Ventura on Bastille Day, July 14, 2019, a different battle took place: a competition between palates.

The wines came out in plain glass carafes, one after another after another. First there were six white wines, then six red wines, all carefully poured by Pierpont Inn staff — wines from around the world.

The challenge? Figure out what these 12 wines were, where they were from, who made them, and when — and score the most points in the process to win a trip to France.

No notes. No Google.

No books.

Just a team of two people sniffing, swirling, swishing and spitting to narrow down which one of thousands this wine could be.

Once organizer Wine Acuity called time, 11 teams of competitors and 24 spectators/tasters turned in score cards, headed to the buffet, compared conclusions, and waited to see who would make the 2019 U.S. Wine Tasting Team to compete for the World Wine Tasting Championship (WWTC) in Loire, France.

Competitors included two local members of last year’s four-person team who competed with new partners (Lisa Stoll of Camarillo and Kristin Shubert of Chatsworth).

And I was competing, too, with partner Sue Hill of Cantara Cellars. We felt confident about the whites, but the reds?

Wine Acuity CEO John Vilja, who led TEAM USA in the 2016 WWTC to third place, says blind wine tasting is difficult to master. But he’s quick to add that “It isn’t about being a wine expert.”

Instead he says it’s about “being passionate for wine, having a desire to represent the U.S. in a world event, and most importantly, it is about having fun.”

Being relaxed also helps you compete: according to the Wine Acuity site, “placing too much pressure on yourself reduces your sensory acuity.” So they suggest that you “remember to sit back and relax.”

I don’t know how nervous other teams might have been; in general, everyone seemed to have a good time. While Sue and I get together weekly to taste for my Wine Predator blog, we didn’t expect to win, so we didn’t feel any pressure.

First they announced third place: Lisa Stoll and Elan Gasser with 59 points.

Second place went to a team with 92 points. When they called my name and Sue’s, we looked at each other in disbelief and then started jumping up and down and hugging each other.

First place went to Texans Taylor Robertson and Jacob Fergus, who scored 101 points. We will be joining them in France to compete as a team of four for the World Championship.

Congratulations also to Colleen Murphy, who came in first among non-competing tasters.

If she had competed, she would have come in at fourth place.

According to Wine Acuity, “Team USA looks to be very strong for this year’s World Wine Tasting Championships!”

“We were very pleased with the event,” said Wine Acuity representative Kathy Greene.

“We felt all contestants were really enjoying themselves, which was most important.”

FLAVOR FEST: Onion kulcha, chicken biryani, samosa, paneer masala and chicken coconut curry.

Fine Indian flavor at the Masala Twist

By Kateri Wozny The Masala Twist 2810 Harbor Blvd., #B1, Oxnard 805-832-4945 www.themasalatwist.com $1.95-14.95

I

live in the Channel Islands Harbor and on my walks I had always come across an Indian restaurant called the Masala Twist. The restaurant opened last summer by owner Lakhwinder Singh who felt the need to have authentic Indian cuisine in the harbor. I love to support my community, so I had my two friends tag along for dinner one night.

I knew this was going to be a special twist when I first entered the restaurant. I immediately inhaled the smell of Indian spices coming from the kitchen and there were plasma TVs blaring Indian music videos. All of the waiters were anxious to seat and serve us and the atmosphere was just vibrating. They even have seating on the back patio for those wanting to eat outside.

Browsing through the menu, the restaurant has a variety of traditional Indian cuisines, including soups and salads, appetizers, seafood, Tandoori sizzlers, chicken, lamb and goat curries, vegetable specialties, rotis, biryanis and desserts.

We each ordered a glass of red pinot noir and shiraz and dove right into ordering rotis and an appetizer: onion kulcha, naan bread stuffed with onions and herbs, and aloo samosa, vegetable patties with potatoes and peas served with mint chutney. You can’t go wrong with naan bread and this one had the perfect blend of onions and herbs. And that mint chutney topping off the samosa? Mmm MMM! For the main courses we ordered chicken biryani (basmati rice cooked with boneless pieces of chicken, cashew nuts, raisins and a blend of herbs and spices), chicken coconut curry (boneless pieces of chicken cooked in special gravy and coconut milk) and paneer masala (homemade Indian cheese cooked with tomatoes, onions and yogurt sauce with spices).

You can order the main dishes mild, medium or hot (we all ordered medium). All of these dishes were also large enough to share, so we all dug in once the masterpieces hit the table.

My plate was pretty packed. My chicken biryani had all of the ingredients I love and I even tried mixing a bit of it with complimentary homemade yogurt sauce with cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes and spices called raita. It was an Indian flavor explosion in my mouth!

Onto the chicken coconut curry that my friend had ordered. I am usually not a fan of coconut but this dish had a mild coconut flavor with a strong curry gravy. It was so creamy with the chicken it practically melted in my mouth.

Lastly, the paneer masala my other friend had ordered.

I was a bit hesitant at first because I wasn’t sure how cheese would go with spices, but this ended up being my favorite dish. It’s unique and with the blend of tomatoes, onion and yogurt, it just works well together.

For dessert, I ordered a small bowl of rice pudding — basmati rice cooked with sweet milk, cashew nuts and raisins — and a hot cup of tea, Indian style, that consists of chai tea with milk, cardamom, cloves and cinnamon.

This was the first time I ever had this type of pudding and it had the perfect amount of sweetness. Topped off with the chai tea, it was the perfect way to the end the evening.

With all fresh ingredients at an affordable price, I can say, hands down, the Masala Twist is one of the best authentic Indian cuisine restaurants I have been to. I will definitely be making my way back soon to try even more flavorful dishes. On the way out, I grabbed a handful of fennel seed candies at the hostess station, which freshened my mouth instantly.

Jaci Johnson of Foster VC Kids/Homes with a Heart Ventura County speaks with Michael Sanders, a foster parent of teens for about five years, who was a moderator and guest speaker at a Town Hall Meeting on June 29 at Oxnard College. through the whole process.”

To this day, Yanneli remains connected with the parents who took in her children, “because I had a total of three foster families for my kids and they all did nothing but good.

I’m still really good friends with all of them.

They still come to my son’s birthday parties and Christmases.”

It’s critical for a resource family to stay in touch with the biological parents of the children taken in, Leeann emphasized, because “we know nothing about them; when they come into the home it’s important you know details . . . the only way you’re going to get information is if you’re open with their family. You need that information because it’s about the child — the center of the universe revolves around that child. Everyone must come together and be supportive. Communication is key: you have to keep them involved in the child’s life.”

“THEY NEED YOUR LOVE”

Keanna’s journey began in Colorado, where she had her first placement, but “the home was very abusive to me and my two brothers.” After being removed from the first home, she went to another, “and that started a cycle — it was one abusive home after the other.” She came to California at age 5, and lived with her grandmother in Bakersfield, but after two years in her care, “she became abusive as well.”

When Keanna went to another foster home, “I didn’t want to get close to anyone. I didn’t want a relationship with anyone and started pushing people away . . . I went into the home thinking these aren’t my parents.

I’m not going to be here long. These people are temporary because that’s what I was shown.”

Leeann added that there’s nothing like being a resource family. “If everybody would be licensed and start the process to be a

resource family, we wouldn’t need shelter homes, we’d have a home for every child. We need that in this county; our youth need it, they need your home, they need your love.”

For Keanna, “I thought I was looking for a forever home, and when I was given an opportunity to have a forever home, it wasn’t the home that I wanted, which was the connection with the family. Some of you may not be able to offer your home, or in a position to have kids, but there’s so much that you can do to give to this community to help us.”

Different reasons bring children into foster care, Sanders said, which “usually has to do with abuse and neglect and some kinds of victimization — and in order to keep them safe they’re put into foster care.”

Looking back on her experience, Betty says she loves her family just like she loves her resource family, and when it comes to families taking kids in, “it’s all about people trying.”

“Sometimes they can’t really see us behind all the paperwork — that was hard for me because my paperwork looked really bad because nobody wanted me,” she said. “I’d be here and over there, but someone saw beyond the paperwork and I’m here now, and it’s amazing when somebody looks beyond it.”

There are people out there who’ve never felt real love and a human connection, Betty emphasized, adding it makes a huge difference to “be there for someone who’s never felt love and who doesn’t believe they’re worthy of love. You can do that for someone — it changed my life, love changed my life. When you love the people you’re not meant to love, it makes such a difference. You can make a difference, you can change the world. Kids need you, teens need you.” ✦ For more information, call 805-654-3220; or visit fostervckids.org.

MOON nautical engineer at Rocketdyne, the former testing facility located in Simi Valley. DeMuri worked on the Saturn V booster rockets, which propelled the Apollo 11 into orbit before disengaging and falling into the Pacific Ocean.

“You don’t realize you’re in the middle of a movement during the movement,” said DeMuri, who will attend the VCAS party, bringing with her items from her dad’s collection. “Now that it’s been 50 years, I can understand how my dad was always working, always curious and always reading books, educated himself to make it a success, not only him as an aeronautical engineer but all of those men.”

Hal Jandorf, adjunct astronomy professor at Moorpark College and Los Angeles Valley College, says that the Apollo mission inspired him to teach astronomy following a 40-year career as an engineer.

After he graduated from college in the 1970s, Jandorf took his interest to NASA where he helped to design the Space Shuttle, NASA’s follow-up to the Apollo missions.

Jandorf has now been a professor for 35 years and has hosted the VCAS’ Star Parties every summer, since Moorpark College’s observatory was opened in 1989.

“It is kind of hard to describe it. It’s an incredible achievement,” said Jandorf on the Apollo 11 mission.

“Probably the greatest, at least I think, the greatest achievement humans have done. They changed humanity itself.”

Prior to Apollo 11, 10 earlier missions resulted in developing the technology that made the moon landing possible and testing whether or not humans could survive in a long-haul journey through space. There was tragedy as well.

Apollo 1 was set to become the first low Earth orbital test for the command module, set to launch on

Feb. 21, 1967. Command Pilot Virgil I. “Gus” Grissom, Senior Pilot Ed White, and Pilot Roger B. Chaffee were the first Apollo astronauts. One month prior to launch date, on Jan. 27, a fire in the cockpit killed all three men during a launch simulation.

Jandorf says he was practicing with his band when news of the accident came over the radio. Now, he uses it to remind his students of the enormous effort it took to get humans to the moon.

“I always tell my students how many astronauts actually walked on the moon: 12. There were six missions that were successful and 12 people walked on it,” said Jandorf.

Thomas says that he hopes people in attendance at the anniversary celebration will feel a sense of patriotism with regards to what Americans can do and have done in the name of science and technology.

“It’s one of the greatest lessons we have about what mankind can do if we just put our minds to it,” said Thomas. “The Apollo system and the moon landing still might be the greatest technical accomplishment humanity has ever achieved.”

Salvas says that there will be telescopes set up for viewing celestial objects such as Saturn and the Milky Way but, ironically, the moon will not be visible on the night of the anniversary. Attendees, however, will have the opportunity to share their own memories of the Apollo 11 mission and to explain why the mission was important to them.

“That was the most important thing about the Apollo 11 mission — everyone in America, if they didn’t have a hand in working on it, they were involved emotionally,” said Salvas. “I want to be bring that back 50 years later.” ✦ The Ventura County Astronomical Society’s Apollo 11: 50th Anniversary Star Party will take place on Saturday, July 20, 8-11 p.m. at the Moorpark College Observatory, 7075 Campus Road, Moorpark. For more information, visit www.vcas.org.

Kindness Corner

BEE HOMES

Nearly 40 kids gathered at the Santa Paula Agricultural Museum on Sunday, July 7, to paint bee boxes that will be used by the Santa Paula Beekeepers Association in its booth for the Ventura County Fair July 31-Aug. 11.

“We wanted to add a little more artistic view,” said Ron Merkord, a member of the Santa Paula Bee Keepers Association and a resident of Bardsdale. “It was a perfect activity to get kids involved.”

The association has had a booth at the fair for the past three years, which won awards in the last two years. The boxes will create a three-section wall and form half of a hexagon.

They will be the backdrop for the booth aimed at informing the public about backyard and commercial bee keeping. The colorful boxes are owned by Blue Ridge Honey of Fillmore and after the fair will be used to house some of their bees.

“We will have someone in the booth every day to educate the public about whatever they want to know about bee keeping, back yard or commercial,” said Merkord.

The bee booth will be in the center of the agricultural building at the fair and include an observation hive with live bees, images of honey comb, bee suits and other tools that bee keepers use. Find the Santa Paula Beekeepers Association on Facebook.

ADVICE GODDESS

Meme Girls I keep reading about how detrimental social media usage is, with people avoiding face-to-face interaction and feeling inferior when they see everyone else looking gorgeous and having fabulous lives. Would you recommend taking regular breaks from social media?

— Instagrammer Girl Put on 10 pounds recently? No problem! There’s surely an app that’ll stick your head on the bod of some 22-year-old actress who works out 13 hours a day and subsists on Nicorette gum and bottles of air blessed by monks.

Social media is often seen as Satan with cat memes. It gets blamed for everything from eating disorders to the decline in the bee population. But consider that how a person uses social 32— — 32

— July July18, 18,2019 2019 —

by amy alkon media can shape how it affects them.

Psychologist Sarah M. Hanley and her colleagues note that there are two different kinds of social media users: active and passive. Active social media users create content and communicate with others. Passive users browse newsfeeds and posts without commenting. They’re basically readonly info consumers.

For both active and passive users, taking a vacation from social networking sites like Facebook and Instagram is a thing lately — the digital version of cutting out sugar (at least temporarily). But is it actually a good thing?

Hanley and her colleagues blocked research participants’ access to social media sites for a week. They figured this would benefit passive users — the silent observers — giving them a break from the noxious barrage of how rich, beautiful, and successful everyone else seems to be.

In fact, passive users’ well-being wasn’t really affected positively or negatively during their social media exile. However, active users ended up being kind of bummed (or, in researcher terms, they had diminished “positive affect” — a decrease in positive, pleasant moods, and feelings).

This makes sense, because using

these sites in an engaged way — when, say, a mob isn’t coming after you because you like your coffee “wrong” — can be a positive thing, increasing social connection. So when active users pull the plug on their social media, they separate themselves not only from the negatives but also from the social and emotional benefits of engaging with others.

In short, social media is a tool — same as an ax, which you can use to cut wood for a lovely campfire or to chase terrified teenagers through the forest. You can choose to take

we weren’t fighting. #Cabocouples #grateful #livingmybestlife”

Hint Julep My newly divorced business colleague keeps asking for my hot friends’ phone numbers. I think this is highly inappropriate. If things go badly, I’m stuck in the middle! I keep hinting that I don’t think it’s cool for him to put me in this position, but he doesn’t seem to be getting the message. Help.

— Stuck

In short, social media is a tool — same as an ax, which you can use to cut wood for a lovely campfire or to chase terrified teenagers through the forest. an emotionally healthy approach to social media: be an active participant instead of a passive one by posting stuff or at least participating in conversations, even in small ways. If somebody’s barrage of fabulosity gets you down, you might remind yourself of all the reality that gets cropped out — a la, “Here’s a pic of my boyfriend and me in Cabo for two weeks ... during the 1 minute and 37.6 seconds

It’s so annoying when your colleagues leave their mind-reading helmets at home.

In such cases, there is a way to get your message across, and it’s by directly expressing it — in words. This is not exactly a mystery of the universe I’m revealing here. But like many women, you probably have a tendency to default to hinting and hoping for compliance.

This looks like a flaw in female psychology — until you hold it up to an evolutionary lens, as the late psychologist Anne Campbell did in looking at sex differences in assertiveness.

Campbell explained that being direct — unambiguously stating what you

want — can make another person angry and lead them to retaliate, possibly physically. A woman who is physically harmed might not be able to get pregnant or fulfill her role as her children’s primary caretaker, making her a genetic dead end. So, women especially have been driven to protect themselves and their reproductive parts. Campbell believes this led to the evolution of female indirectness — not as flaw, but as a feature.

The thing is, the evolved emotions driving this behavior aren’t your master, and you don’t have to obey them.

You simply have to be willing to pay the price of rebelling: feeling a little uncomfortable when you draw outside the evolved emotional lines. This just takes telling the guy “no mas.”

He’s free to look up friends of yours on social media and contact them there if he wants, but he needs to stop asking you for their numbers. You’re down with bringing in more clients, but you draw the line at acting as the corporate recruiter for his penis. ♦ (c)2019, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved. Got a problem?

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

An Aries reader sent me a boisterous email. “I was afraid I was getting too bogged down by my duties,” he said, “too hypnotized by routine, too serious about my problems. So I took drastic action.” He then described the ways he broke out of his slump. Here’s an excerpt: “I gave laughing lessons to a cat. I ate a spider. I conducted a sneezing contest. I smashed an alarm clock with a hammer.

Whenever an elderly woman walked by, I called out ‘Hail to the Queen!’ and did a backflip. I gave names to my spoon (Hortense), the table (Beatrice), a fly that was buzzing around (Fallon), and a toothpick (Arturo).” According to my analysis of the astrological omens, Aries, you’d be wise to stage a comparable uprising.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

Welcome home, homegirls and homeboys. After observing all your homesteading in homes away from home, I’m pleased to see you getting curious about the real home brew again. I wonder how many times I’ll say the word “home” before you register the message that it’s high time for you to home in on some homemade, homegrown homework?

Now here’s a special note to any of you who may be feeling psychologically homeless or exiled from your spiritual home: the coming weeks will be a favorable time to address that ache and remedy that problem.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

The world is full of eternally restless people who seethe with confused desires they don’t understand. Fueled by such unfathomable urges, they are driven in unknown directions to accomplish fuzzy goals. They may be obsessed in ways

by rob brezsny

that make them appear to be highly focused, but the objects of their obsession are impossible to attain or unite with. Those objects don’t truly exist!

I have described this phenomenon in detail, Gemini, because the coming months will offer you all the help and support you could ever need to make sure you’re forever free of any inclination to be like that.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

What would you say if I asked you to tell me who you truly are? I wouldn’t want to hear so much about your titles and awards. I’d be curious about your sacred mysteries, not your literal history.

I’d want to know the treasured secrets you talk about with yourself before you fall asleep. I’d ask you to sing the songs you love and describe the allies who make you feel real. I’d urge you to riff on the future possibilities that both scare you and thrill you. What else? What are some other ways you might show me core truths about your irrepressible soul? Now is a good time to meditate on these riddles.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Isaac Asimov wrote a science fiction story about a physicist who masters time travel and summons William Shakespeare into the present time. The Bard enrolls in a night school class about his own plays — and proceeds to flunk the course. Modern ideas and modes of discourse are simply too disorienting to him. He is unable to grasp the theories that centuries’ worth of critics have developed about his work. With this as a cautionary tale, I invite you to time-travel not four centuries into the future, but just ten years. From that vantage point, look

back at the life you’re living now. How would you evaluate and understand it?

Do you have any constructive criticism to offer? Any insights that could help you plan better for your long-term future?

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to buy yourself toys, change your image for no rational reason, and indulge in an interesting pleasure that you have been denying yourself for no good reason. In addition, I hope you will engage in at least two heart-toheart talks with yourself, preferably using funny voices and comical body language. You could also align yourself gracefully with cosmic rhythms by dancing more than usual, and by goofing off more than usual, and by wandering in the wilderness and seeking to recapture your lost innocence more than usual.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Although you’ll never find an advertisement for Toyota or Coca Cola or Apple within my horoscope column, you will find hype for spiritual commodities like creativity, love, and freedom. Like everyone else, I’m a huckster. My flackery may be more ethical and uplifting than others’, but the fact is that I still try to persuade you to “buy” my ideas. The moral of the story: Everyone, even the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu, is selling something. I hope that what I’m saying here purges any reluctance you might have about presenting yourself and your ideas in the most favorable light. It’s high time for you to hone your sales pitch; to explain why your approach to life is so wise; to be a forceful spokesperson and role model for the values you hold dear.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

You are growing almost too fast, but that won’t necessarily be a problem — as long as you don’t expect everyone around you to grow as fast as you. I suspect that you also know almost too much — but I don’t anticipate that will spawn envy and resistance as long as you cultivate a bit of humility. I have an additional duty to report that you’re on the verge of being too attractive for your own good — although you have not yet actually reached the tipping point, so maybe your hyper-attractiveness will serve you rather than undermine you. In conclusion, Scorpio, I invite you to celebrate your abundance, but don’t flaunt it.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

The snow leopards of Central Asia crave a lot of room to wander. Zoologists say that each male prefers its territory to be about 84 square miles, and each female likes to have 44 square miles. I don’t think you’ll require quite that vast a turf in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. But on the other hand, it will be important not to underestimate the spaciousness you’ll need in order to thrive. Give yourself permission to be expansive.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

“I want to do things so wild with you that I don’t know how to say them.” Author Anaïs Nin wrote that in a letter to her Capricorn lover Henry Miller. Is there anyone you could or should or want to say something like that? If your answer is yes, now is a good time to be so candid and bold. If the answer is no, now would be a good time to scout around for a person to whom you could or should or want to say such a thing. And if you’d like to throw in a bit more enticement, here’s

another seductive lyric from Anaïs: “Only the united beat of sex and heart together can create ecstasy.”

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Did you hear the story about the California mom who started a series of forest fires so as to boost her son’s career as a firefighter? She is an apt role model for behavior you should diligently avoid in the coming weeks. It’s unwise and unprofitable for you and yours to stir up a certain kind of trouble simply because it’s trouble that you and yours have become skilled at solving. So how should you use your problem-solving energy, which I suspect will be at a peak? I suggest you go hunting for some very interesting and potentially productive trouble that you haven’t wrangled with before — some rousing challenge that will make you even smarter than you already are.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

The heroine of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass is curious, adventurous, and brave. First she follows a well-dressed rabbit down a rabbit hole into an alternate universe.

Later she slips through a mirror into yet another parallel reality. Both times, with great composure, she navigates her way through many odd, paranormal, and unpredictable events. She enjoys herself immensely as she deals with a series of unusual characters and unfamiliar situations. I’m going to speculate that Alice is a Pisces. Are you ready for your very own Alice-in-Wonderland phase? Here it comes!

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 prop-

erty. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 or visit this Internet Web site www. nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 18-0721-11. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF SHELDON MURRAY MILLER, DECEDENT Case No: 56-2019-00530243PR-PL-OXN To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: SHELDON MURRAY MILLER. A Petition for Probate has been filed by LINDA ALBALA in the Superior Court of California, County of VENTURA.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 08/22/19 at 9:00 a.m. in Dept. J6.

Address of court: Superior Court of California, County of Ventura, 4353 E. Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, CA 93036, Juvenile Courthouse.

If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by

the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
