Letters Draft environmental impact report for the Ventura County 2040 General Plan

protect the physical environment under its jurisdiction. The corrective action is to acknowledge the primacy of climate change and the devastating impacts that will be most severely felt in Ventura County. All goals and policies incorporated within a General Plan must have annual quantifiable metrics and measurables that lead to a complete cessation of hydrocarbon extraction practices within the county and the elimination of hydrocarbon usage by a date certain.

from politicians; their job is to get elected, then re-elected for as long as possible. However, the ONE time I contacted his office about looking into something that affected me and many others in his district all I got for my efforts were a few emails from one of his lackeys who managed to miss every point I was making. So NOTHING came of it and now he wants to double-dip Californians by raking in his county pension AND an Assemblyman's paycheck? We can do better than this by just voting for #anyoneexceptstevebennett.

against the Oxnard City Council. I believe that what he said in the aforementioned letter is true and accurate, based on my own research into the situation. He has had one or two lawsuits over related matters against the city of Oxnard in the past few years. As far as I remember, I believe he won the lawsuits. The allegations of wrongdoing and ethics violations are so serious that they need to be brought to the attention of the Ventura County Grand Jury. IF no one else is willing to file such a complaint, then I might do it myself. This bad behavior by the Oxnard City Council must, repeat MUST, be stopped now!! Nullifying the will of the people by altering their petitions is totally outrageous. It may even be a criminal act!!

CLU softball team accused of blackface

All sides say admin response misses the mark by Kimberly Rivers kimberly@vcreporter.com

The women’s softball team and three of its coaches at California Lutheran University (CLU) have retained legal counsel in the wake of a string of actions by CLU President Chris Kimball and other administrators following two controversial social media posts by students on two different athletic teams. “We will be suing the university for defamation, portrayal in a false light, among other causes of action,” said Michael Saltz, a partner with the Los Angeles-based firm of Jacobson, Russell, Saltz and Fingerman. He confirmed that he represents all 24 players on the CLU Women’s Softball team and three of their coaches, who have been placed on administrative leave. He said that there are also employment issues involved in the case. Saltz said CLU administration mischaracterized a team activity as “blackface,” which has led to the players receiving death threats and harassment. According to an email sent to the VCReporter by Saltz, assistant coach DeAnn Young “is in utter shock that the administration actually thought that she, an African American woman, would ever allow a blackface incident to occur right in front of her by her own players.” The attorney added that Young is “understandably upset, not only for how the CLU administration has treated her during this incident, but also for how CLU has used this incident

‘‘

bella Breda, The Echo, Feb. 5, 2020). The incidents have fueled racial tensions at the college, where CLU students of color and some faculty report that the administration has failed for years to address diversity and race issues on campus. Kimball responded to the incidents with an email sent out on Feb. 5 to all faculty, staff and students. “Two racist incidents involving social media posts by Cal Lutheran students occurred in the last week. The university condemns any form of speech, action or expression that dehumanizes, belittles or degrades any person,” stated Kimball in the email. “Blackface and the N-word evoke white supremacy, anti-black-

to pit students against one another in the name of race based on something that never happened.” Saltz went on to say that no one from CLU contacted Young about the “alleged incident” prior to her being placed on leave. Saltz being retained follows a string of events brought to light by an email from Kimball to staff, faculty and students. On Feb. 5, the CLU campus newspaper, The Echo, reported on a screen recording of a Snapchat in which a white female CLU athlete said “Nah, [N-word].” The recording was later shared on Twitter. The Echo’s story included a link to the video, which was still active on Twitter on Feb. 12, but was no longer live by Feb. 13. The story also included reports about another video and photographs, posted a few days before on Instagram — and taken down shortly thereafter — of female athletes from another CLU team (later learned to be the softball team) “that appeared to be blackface.” (“Studentathletes involved in racist incidents,” Isa6— — February 20, 2020

ness and remind us that a violent, racist past is still with us today.” The email further stated that those “who are responsible will be held accountable.” The mention of blackface in Kimball’s email was the first time the wider campus community had heard about that incident. Maria Reyes, a senior at CLU who serves as a senator in the Associated Students of CLU Government and is vice president with the campus club Together We Dream, a support group for first-generation and undocumented students, said that until students saw that Feb. 5 email, no one on campus knew anything about an incident involving blackface. Reyes has not seen the alleged blackface but said those who have described the players as “dressed up as black artists.” Reyes said she’s heard about the softball team getting an attorney and claiming they are being “slandered,” but she thinks that, based on everything happening on campus, “Yeah, that’s blackface, you are participating in blackface.” She had spent time speak-

ing with students of the Black Student Union (BSU) and Sister’s Circle, a group for black women on campus, and that it really “opened [her] eyes” to what black students deal with at CLU. Reyes had heard about female students being called the n-word in the campus parking lot for getting a parking place before another driver, or people touching a black student’s braids. According to a spokesperson for the softball team, a letter dated Feb. 6, in which athletes describe the incident and clarify what it was supposed to be, was sent to the athletic director. It is intended to be sent out to the CLU student body, but has not been sent yet. “We acted from a place of ignorance and had no intention to cause any sort of harm,” stated the letter submitted to CLU Athletic Director Dan Kuntz. The letter describes a “series of photos and videos featuring different costumes from a team building activity” and that some were perceived as “racially insensitive.” The students drew beards on their faces and explained that when viewed in photographs it may look like blackface. “We acknowledge the place of privilege we come from and accept the harm we have caused to many and we apologize profusely.” When asked what the university could do now, Saltz said, “First thing, [they] have to issue a retraction and tell the truth, there was no blackface incident, end of story.” He said that the administration would need to apologize to the players, coaches and families “publicly and privately . . . absent the retraction and apology, we have nothing to combat the permanent stain they have left on these people’s careers and lives.” Leadership with the CLU Black Student Union (BSU) declined to comment or be interviewed for this story. Kimball was unavailable to respond to questions.

tion building chanting about the students involved being named and expelled. “They want to enroll black and brown bodies . . . but don’t want to see our culture,” said Reyes about why she and other students planned the walkout. The BSU and Sister’s Circle participated in the event. As part of the student response, various groups are working together to produce short videos of students who have experienced racism on campus. “We’re doing this as more proof to the administration that racist acts happen more often than they think, or liked to admit, and they cannot keep shrugging these incidents away,” said Reyes in a written statement to faculty. “We ask that the students who acted in the recent acts of hate be prevented from going to class and participating in other CLU-sponsored extracurricular activities effective immediately, and ultimately be removed from this campus as students . . . California Lutheran University must stand in unity with our black students.”

Regents diversify Presidential Selection Committee Kimball announced last October that he would be stepping down and the board of regents would be forming a committee to find his replacement. On Feb. 14, the chair of the CLU board of regents issued a statement which said, “We realize now that we did not put enough of a focus on the diversity” of the selection committee and announced that two board members, Randall Foster and Bill Camarillo, will be joining the selection committee and that the Black Employees Association and Staff Development Committee will be working together to choose two more members. That committee will also receive training to ensure the hiring process focuses on “equity-minded competencies.” ♦

Students walkout and speak out On Wednesday, Feb. 12, about 100 CLU students participated in a walkout during class to protest what students say is a failed response by school officials to address the racist incidents. They marched into the administra-

Ventura County Supervisor Candidates Districts 1, 3 and 5 to appear on March 3 ballot Intro by Kimberly Rivers krivers@timespublications.com

ational politics get a lot of attention, but many of the issues we deal with on a daily basis are primarily overseen by local elected officials on city councils and county supervisor boards. From county-managed roads and public transit to air quality to housing, public health, watershed protection, emergency response planning and more, county supervisors and staff make important decisions that impact our quality of life. Ventura County is divided into five districts and each district elects one supervisor for a four-year term. Districts 1, 3 and 5 are up for grabs on the March ballot and are subject to the state primary rules: If one candidate gets a majority (51 percent) of the vote on March 3, they win; if no candidate earns a majority of votes, then the top two vote-getters will be on the November ballot. Supervisor races are nonpartisan and therefore our story will not include party affiliation for the candidates, but may include endorsement information.

District 1: Water use, accountability and a write-in candidate Includes the north coast of the county, Ventura, Ojai and the Upper Ojai Valley, Montalvo, Saticoy, Riverpark and the northwest edge of Oxnard. Candidates: Jeff Ketelson, Matt LaVere and Trevor Quirk This race, on the ballot as current Supervisor Steve Bennett is termed out, has been shaken up in recent weeks by the announcement of a write-in candidate from the Ojai Valley in the wake of a massive legal action involving water usage in the Ventura River Watershed (“Watershed moment: Petrochem sold as water war looms in the Ventura River Watershed,” Kimberly Rivers, VCReporter, Jan. 15, 2020). Matt LaVere and Trevor Quirk,

two of the three candidates, responded in writing to the same questions from the VCReporter. A third candidate, Jeff Ketelsen, a hardware clerk from Ojai, did not respond to multiple requests for comment. Matt LaVere lives in Ventura and was elected in 2016 to the Ventura City Council, where today he serves as mayor. He is an attorney at a firm specializing in employment, business and real estate law. LaVere names the “ever-increasing affordability gap” as the most important issue in Ventura County. “It is getting harder and harder for the average person to afford to live here,” he said, pointing to a stagnant economy in the county and “a serious

lessness. When asked if there is anything he would have done differently while in office he said, “I would have handled the Ventura River litigation much differently . . . I learned that you can’t trust everything the city attorneys tell us, and I know the Ventura City Council will take a much closer look at our attorneys moving forward.” He said the attorneys told the city council “that if someone paid a water bill to a water company and did not have a well (like myself and 95 percent of the people who received notice from the city) then that person had nothing to do with this litigation. This advice was clearly wrong.” He said most of the thousands of people

I learned that you can’t trust everything the city attorneys tell us, and I know the Ventura City Council will take a much closer look at our attorneys moving forward.” – Matt LaVere, District 1 candidate lack of affordable/workforce housing,” as pieces to the issue. He said renters and low-income families are hit the hardest. “That is not right.” To address the affordability issue at the county he’ll “create an economic development department . . . to proactively engage with local businesses.” That department will target “resources that help start, retain or grow businesses” in the county and work to streamline development procedures. Homelessness and public transportation are two other top issues LaVere wants to address. “We must continue to be a leader in providing care and wrap-around services to our county’s homeless individuals.” He points to the new homeless shelter in Ventura as the thing he is most proud of as a public official. “This is something I worked very hard on, both as mayor and chair of the council’s homeless subcommittee.” LaVere says more funding is needed for mental health services as a key to combatting home-

who were sent notices “have nothing at all to worry about,” but, “As mayor of Ventura, I need to own up to this and the fact that the city let the people of both Ventura and Ojai down by not doing a better job of both outreach and oversight of our attorneys.” As for why he is running for county office now, LaVere responded, “I want to continue my work in ensuring that the Ventura County my children and your children inherit is even better than the Ventura County we know today.” He said it’s “important to ask . . . ‘What qualifies you for this office?’” He lists his “strong relationships and . . . diverse knowledge base” as qualifications, noting that he developed those skills through his various roles with the Ventura City Council’s economic development, homeless and affordable housing, and finance/ budget subcommittees as well as the Ventura Chamber of Commerce’s economic development subcommittee. LaVere’s endorsements include

the Ventura County Democratic Party, Greater Oxnard Organization of Democrats, Ventura and Oxnard Chamber of Commerce Political Action Committees, Ventura Citizens for Hillside Preservation, Ventura County Deputy Sheriff’s Association and CAUSE Action Fund. He has signed the No Fossil Fuel Money Pledge. Trevor Quirk, a resident of Upper Ojai, announced his candidacy on Jan. 27 and is a qualified write-in candidate, meaning his name will not be on the ballot. Those who wish to vote for him will have to write his name on the ballot in the correct section. He is a trial attorney at a Venturabased firm specializing in personal injury cases. Quirk said that he felt compelled to run now because “I believe our government should be accountable, transparent and not waste our taxpayer money.” He pointed toward the votes LaVere made as mayor “to spend $4,438,000 of our taxpayer money on Walnut Creek lawyers.” He is referring to a firm the city hired to represent them in the watershed adjudication action. When first asked how he voted, LaVere claimed the closed session votes could not be reported — a statement contrary to state disclosure laws for elected bodies. Quirk said that the accountability issue goes back two decades, as the city has been over-pumping the Ventura River. “The city has known and failed to fix [it] for 21 years,” said Quirk. In 2014, when the city was sued to stop over-pumping, he says the city made the wrong choice to start adjudication of the entire watershed. “We elect politicians to deliver solutions, not lawsuits.” Quirk said that the biggest issue facing the entire county is “protecting our environmental resources, quality of life, homelessness and jobs. These factors are interdependent . . . When we improve the environment and preserve our natural resources, such as the river, people follow. Businesses follow people. Jobs follow businesses.” For his first steps if elected, Quirk said, “We will pass a county resolution demanding the city dismiss

the water lawsuit. We will form the Ventura River Watershed Group,” which would be made up of “people representing all stakeholders,” with a goal of the lawsuit being “immediately dismissed and the formation of a coalition to address and fix the Ventura River, a precious natural resource that has been ignored for far too long.” Quirk also named the local economy and homelessness as important issues for the county. Having grown up in Sacramento, he sees parallels with Ventura. He says that Sacramento city officials worked with the county to “partner together and rejuvenate their rivers . . . they revitalized their economy. That happened because people are attracted to beautiful, natural areas.” As for skills he’ll bring to the office, Quirk said he has “a unique ability to inspire others and bring people together from all walks of life . . . to solve problems. I’ve brought people together during the Thomas Fire, Montecito mudslides, Woolsey Fire and at my . . . Ventura business.” Endorsements for Quirk include Mitch Vaugh, Fire Chief Santa Barbara City Fire Dept. (Ret.), Suza Francina, member Ojai City Council, William Weirick, member Ojai City Council and Michael Bradbury, former Ventura County District Attorney. Quirk was voted Ventura County Trial Lawyer of the Year in 2017 by his colleagues, and formed the nonprofit organization Upper Ojai Relief in 2017 to assist community members recovering from the Thomas Fire. ■M att LaVere:

District 3: “A clear contrast in candidacies” Includes Camarillo, Port Hueneme, Southeast Oxnard, East Oxnard Plain, Santa Paula, Fillmore, Piru, East Lockwood Valley and Eastern Portion

February 20, 2020 —

— 11

FEATURE CONTINUED of Naval Base Ventura County Port Hueneme. Candidates: Kelly Long and Kim Marra Stephenson The heated race for Ventura County Third District Supervisor may prove pivotal for future board decisions on a wide range of issues including the environment, health care and public safety. Incumbent Kelly Long hopes voters appreciate her first-term achievements on issues including homelessness, emergency response and economic development. Challenger Kim Marra Stephenson says environmental issues would be a top priority if elected. She’s critical of Long’s votes allowing oil drilling, and her abstention on a 2017 board resolution supporting the Paris Climate Accord. California State University, Channel Islands Adjunct Professor of Political Science Tim Allison says board of supervisors races are officially non-partisan, but voters have a stark choice in this contest. “It seems like there’s a clear difference between these candidates. You have one candidate, the incumbent, who clearly is a Republican,” says Allison. “The challenger is clearly a Democrat. So I think the voters in this race get a clear contrast in candidacies.” Allison says both candidates have strengths. Long is helped by incumbency and name recognition. Stephenson could benefit from enthusiasm over the Democratic Party presidential primary. “Democrats will be turning out in bigger numbers because it’s a presidential primary, which gives Stephenson kind of an even shot at it,” said Allison. Centered in Camarillo where both candidates reside, the Third District extends south to Port Hueneme and northeast to include Santa Paula, Fillmore and Piru. It’s the largest of the five districts geographically, covering vast agricultural areas and stretching north across Los Padres National Forest. Of Ventura County’s three supervisorial races this year, it’s the only one with just two candidates, which guarantees there will be no need for a November runoff. Long says voters should return her to office March 3 because of her firstterm achievements. “I’ve been working very hard on many issues for our constituents. We’ve been working on the homelessness issues,” said Long. “I formed the first Fillmore and Piru [Basins] Groundwater Sustainability Agency which includes environmental, municipal and pumpers as board members, which is a first for the state.” Long also touts her background

before being elected county supervisor. “My experience as a mechanical engineer. I was on the Pleasant Valley School Board, elected in 2012, and then elected as Ventura County Supervisor in 2016. So I have the backing of the community. They trust my morals, my ethics in regards to really

encouraging folks to support Kelly Long,” said Allison. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen this kind of money being poured into a supervisorial race.” Stephenson contends that oil interests back Long because she’s sided with the industry on controversial drilling proposals.

looking at the issues at hand and making the best decisions for all community members. I bring a good balance to the board,” said Long. Stephenson served as principal at Adolfo Camarillo High School between 2015 and 2019, and says her background in education shaped her outlook, and that her personal history also made her an advocate for social justice. “I have 40 years in this county, and from a pretty humble background,” said Stephenson. “My grandmother was a farmworker. Every generation of my family served at war since immigrating, both grandfathers in World War II and my brother in Afghanistan . . . . My father experienced mental illness in his 20s and committed suicide when he was 30, and left my mom with four kids under the age of 8. I was 8 years old, helping out with the others. I got my first job at 14 alongside my mom, selling shoes. From that humble background I went on to get a PhD from Stanford in Educational Psychology. So I really worked my way up.” Stephenson says she’ll be focused on helping people if elected. “I think we have a lot of things to worry about in our community. We have an affordability crisis. We have a lot to do there to create good-paying, forwardthinking jobs, with dignified, safe working conditions.” One heated issue in the race involves money that oil industry interests have spent supporting Long, as well as Herrera in District 5 (see sidebar, “Oil money thick in supervisor race”). Spending by independent groups backed by oil companies will easily eclipse what the candidate’s campaigns will spend, which is capped at $225,000 under Ventura County’s campaign finance law. Allison says the amount of money that the oil industry is pumping into the race is unprecedented. “What’s changed in this race in the last few weeks is that the oil and gas industry has put over $900,000 dollars into

“She votes in favor of oil and gas consistently and they’re trying to sustain an unsustainable industry. And we need to prevent that for the health and safety of our community,” said Stephenson. Long countered that she carefully weighs all the issues that come before the board, including oil. “I have voted for some oil and gas projects as warranted, and I’ve also voted against it multiple times. And a great example for that is the Fox Canyon groundwater. We basically have put a moratorium on that because there was a report that came out that there might be toxins in the water.” Long also said that she never asked for financial support from the oil industry. “I don’t have any control over what an outside group does,” said Long. “There’s been a lot of misleading letters and social media posts out there that basically say I’m taking oil money, which is completely untrue. I have not received any money from oil companies to my campaign.” In Allison’s perspective, the direction the board takes on a variety of issues could be determined by the outcome of the race. “I’m seeing this race as the swing seat on the board of supervisors,” said Allison. “The determination as to which way the county board swings, at least on certain issues, is this district. Whether the county grows in an environmentally receptive direction or a business-friendly direction, either of those are logical directions for a county to take, depending on the priorities of those that are sitting in those seats.”

District 5: Homelessness, housing front and center Includes Oxnard Shores, Mandalay Bay, Silver Strand, Hollywood Beach, Hollywood by the Sea, Channel Islands Harbor, El Rio, Nyeland Acres, Del Norte, Oxnard College, Oxnard Plain, Strickland and a portion of the Ventura County Naval Base Port Hueneme. Candidates: Jeffrey Burum, Tim Flynn, Jess Herrera, Carmen Ramirez and Veronica Robles-Solis With current District 5 Supervisor John Zaragoza hitting his term limit, five people have decided to try to convince voters that they have what it takes to deal with Oxnard’s most pressing issues. Those problems range from rebuilding Fisherman’s Wharf and Oxnard’s downtown to homelessness and affordable housing to boosting the county’s economy. Zaragoza, whose district is made up largely of Oxnard, is running for mayor of that city. Meanwhile, Oxnard’s current mayor, Tim Flynn, is running to take Zaragoza’s spot — which his father, John Flynn, held for 24 years. But Flynn must beat Oxnard businessman Jeffrey Burum, Oxnard City Mayor Pro-Tem Carmen Ramirez and Port of Hueneme Commissioner Jess Herrera as well as Oxnard School Board Trustee Veronica Robles-Solis. Flynn, who made an unsuccessful bid to get Amazon to open its planned new headquarters in Oxnard in 2018, said bringing better-paying jobs to Ventura County is a top priority for him. “I’m running for one reason: economic and job growth,” Flynn said at a Feb. 5 candidates forum also attended by Burum, Herrera and Ramirez.

county level” as opposed to each city tackling the problem on their own, Flynn added. When the subject turned to homelessness, Flynn, Burum, Herrera and Ramirez all said they support the Housing First model for addressing homeless. Housing First is a relatively new approach that puts permanent housing ahead of other services — get a person housing first, take care of their other needs afterward. Ramirez made the case that Oxnard’s homelessness crisis can be better dealt with from a county level than by the city council. “I do believe in Housing First, but first you have to have some units to put people in,” Ramirez said. “We do not have enough units, but who controls the funding for services? It’s the county.” Ramirez said she would be going to Sacramento later this month with other local officials to ask Governor Gavin Newsom to earmark more funding for Ventura County to deal with homelessness. “The governor’s plan, which is nice, gives all of the money to the bigger cities; our county will not be getting any of the money,” Ramirez said. Flynn took things a step further and said the federal government should get involved by making available little-used properties such as Camp Roberts in San Luis Obispo County. “We need to find a place to house people until we get them back to work,” Flynn said. “We need a new WPA (Works Progress Administration) program to get people back to work.” Burum said government partnerships with churches and nonprofits would be a better approach than government programs that he called unaffordable and ineffective, noting that the state has spent $2.7 billion in the last two years on such programs, “yet homelessness has surged 16 percent.” A certified public accountant, Burum promised to use “total quality and financial management to streamline processes,” thus saving taxpayers money. “Partnerships provide affordable and effective holistic programs with measurable results,” Burum said, outlining private sector access to mental health services, food, healthcare, job transitions and short-term shelter or housing with clear law enforcement and financial accountability. Herrera didn’t offer a specific plan for dealing with the homeless crisis in Oxnard, but said that the 29,000 people in Oxnard living in poverty were not being listened to because of their social status.

I do believe in Housing First, but first you have to have some units to put people in. We do not have enough units, but who controls the funding for services? It’s the county.” — Carmen Ramirez, Distrist 5 candidate (Robles-Solis had to attend a school board meeting that night.) Despite an ongoing economic expansion, the middle class dream has eluded too many people, too many times in Ventura County, Flynn said. “In Oxnard in particular, perhaps as many as 40 percent not only can’t afford a home, but two or three families have to live in one home,” Flynn said. “We have college graduates that live with their parents.” Something needs to be done “on a

VCREPORTER.COM “I am a strong advocate for social equity,” Herrera said, adding that as a labor leader he made sure families had contracts with livable wages and healthcare. “If one of us succeeds we all should succeed,” Herrera said. “I believe I have the leadership skills to provide that type of economy.” ■J effrey Burum:

political action committee (PAC) funded solely by an oil company called California Resources Corporation (CRC) has reported an income of $825,000 (through Feb. 17, 2020) to support and oppose several candidates in Ventura County Supervisor races. It has been funding television commercials targeting Carmen Ramirez, making claims that she says are false. The current registered name of the PAC is “For a Better Ventura County Supporting Long and Herrera, and opposing Stephenson and Ramirez for Supervisor 2020, with major funding and sponsored by California Resources Corporation.” CRC is a spinoff company of the global corporation Occidental Petroleum, with CRC operating hundreds of oil wells across Ventura County. As of Feb. 18, the PAC has spent $239,958 — more than on any other candidate — to oppose Ramirez, who is a vocal advocate for environmental

causes and action on climate change, and has opposed new oil drilling projects in the Oxnard area. The commercial makes several claims that say Ramirez benefits financially in various ways from her position as Mayor Pro Tem of Oxnard. One claim states Ramirez took a “free junket to China,” funded by the Chinese government. “In August 2016, I was invited by California State Treasurer John Chiang to participate in a trade delegation with other elected officials and business leaders from Southern California and Nevada to promote the California economy, business and tourism,” said Ramirez. “There was no expense charged to Oxnard residents.” The ad also mentions free lodging on a European trip, to which Ramirez explains that in her role as board member for the Center for Civic Education, a national non-profit organization that promotes democratic practice around the world, she was invited in 2013 to represent the center at a conference titled “Democracy and Minority Populations,” hosted by the German government. “I paid for the airfare and the German government

provided accommodations and most meals for the weeklong conference. There was no expense to Oxnard residents.” Amy Fonzo, a spokesperson with CRC, did not respond to a request for comment by press deadline. The CRC PAC has spent $87,899 in support of Herrera’s campaign, one of the candidates running against Ramirez for the District 5 seat. For District 3, the PAC has spent $112,373 for the re-election of Supervisor Kelly Long and spent the same amount in opposition to Kim Marra Stephenson, who is vying to unseat Long. In 2016 during Long’s initial campaign, a PAC called Keep Ventura Working received about $150,000 from the oil and gas industry to support her election. PAC funds are spent on campaign literature, consultants, polling, radio and television advertising and other associated expenses. Election laws governing PACs prohibit a candidate or their campaign from consulting or being in contact with a PAC. ♦

photos. He posts many of them to Instagram and Facebook. (His account is @67billh) After building a strong following, he was encouraged by friends and family to make a book, which he entitled Reflections. An Odd Collection of Strange Reflections includes many photos that didn’t make it into his first book because, he says, “they were too strange. My reflection series are unique. I see the world differently. While most people are simply walking by a large window with reflections, I see a fourth dimension there. I like to fill up my images with information. There’s not a lot of dead space in my work and I rarely crop my images. You see what I see!” Horstick’s work is rich in color, emotion and content.

He admits to being drawn to guitars and motorcycles. “Things I can’t do,” he says with a laugh. Also, skulls, old cars and abandoned buildings. (Horstick says a future project may be devoted to “abandoned America.”) “The fun thing is that I’m in a lot of them because you can’t not be,” he says, pointing to his reflection captured in one of the photographs. The release of An Odd Collection of Strange Reflections was followed by really wonderful news. “I am happy to report that I had a ‘clean’ brain scan. I am now on ‘maintenance doses’ of one of the immune system therapy drugs. Hey, that’s easy,” he says. “I am still here! There’s more photos out there. I need to go take them!” Horstick stays in the picture. ♦ An Odd Collection of Strange Reflections is available through Blurb at www.blurb.com/b/9554674-oddcollection-of-strange-reflections-paper.

Independent rising FEELING THE LOVE Music podcast Luminary Sounds discovers the undiscovered

by Kateri Wozny

n independent music podcast based in Ventura County is helping undiscovered musical artists across all genres break into the mainstream music scene through reviews, interviews and recorded live performances. Luminary Sounds was created by musical artist Odell “Junior LLedo” Davis of Oxnard and musical enthusiast Francis “Francois the Great” Ampiaw of Sherman Oaks last year. The two met 12 years ago working at a bank in Simi Valley and learned they both had a passion for music. “Junior asked that if he started a podcast would I do it with him,” Ampiaw, 40, said. “I was already doing album reviews for mainstream and independent artists. Before [R&B artist] Ella Mae made it big, everyone would always ask me, ‘how did you know she was going to be so big? You need to take this seriously.’ ” Luminary Sounds was also the title of Davis’ third studio album. Instead of promoting it, he decided to help promote other independent artists. The logo mascot for the Luminary Sounds brand, a penguin, represents overcoming difficult life obstacles. “A penguin works hard to survive and represents that for independent artists,” Davis, 38, said. Davis said that independent music began rising when mainstream music artists began having issues with their record labels. “They were in limbo,” Davis said. “Being stuck in label, they can’t put out the music that they wanted to and then music platforms began emerging.” Ampiaw and Davis find upcoming artists by researching on the Internet using keywords, asking people with headphones on what they are listening to and listening to music subscriptions such as TIDAL. Artists from all over the world have asked to be reviewed on the podcast. “Out of every single podcast and genre that pertains to music, we are the only one that specifically looks for undiscovered artists to be shown,” Davis said. “We are not a trending name; we really are underground by promoting artists that do not have a trending name.” Independent music artists that have been featured on the podcast and later broke into mainstream include

R&B singers DaniLeigh (“Easy”), Pink Sweat$ (“Honesty”) and Summer Walker (“CPR”). Saxophonist Nate Myers (“Pillow Talk”) and rapper $enseii (“FAM”) have also been highlighted on Luminary Sounds. “Francois is such a music enthusiast and me being a musical artist, it’s a great combo to discover artists and genres that will really take off,” Davis said. The podcast also recently gained a new host, Kawaya “Kay Don’t Play” Haynes of Oxnard. The 26-year-old was inspired to become involved after viewing a friend on an episode. “I am an entrepreneur myself and I had reached out to do marketing and promotions,” Haynes said. “Our chemistry is great, we all have the same goal — inspire people to do what they love and showcase their talents.” Most episodes are recorded and filmed at Lion City Studios in Downtown Ventura while a separate office in Downtown Los Angeles hosts artists with scheduling conflicts. “The artists will travel to Downtown Ventura from Orange County, Long Beach and Compton,” Davis said. “They enjoy the show and what we do. It’s very professional and a way of us saying we appreciate you.” A new episode is launched every other week with an average of 200 to 250 listeners per episode. On YouTube, the watch time is more than 3,000 minutes. “We want the audience to take away that they experienced something new and got an artist that they will follow up and look into,” Ampiaw said. Ampiaw and Davis have also hosted local music events, including the Ventura County Music Awards and Oxnard Jazz Festival. For 2020, the duo is working on launching their brand ambassador program, working with merchandise brands and collaborating with radio stations. “We want to establish relationships [with the stations] that filter new artists that they might not even know of,” Davis said. “Independent artists are equally important.” ♦ To listen or watch an episode of Luminary Sounds, visit www.luminary-sounds.com, or subscribe to its YouTube channel.

jai-based singer/songwriter Licity Collins brought her guitar, her notebook and some friends to Namba Performing Arts Space on Feb. 15. It was the day after Valentine’s Day, but the good vibes continued to flow, as the artist hosted her very own “Love Fest” featuring herself along with troubadour Rags Rosenberg, Ventura musician Henry Stewart and trombonist Stan “Skabone” Middleton. Collins — as talented a storyteller as she is a singer and guitarist — shared true tales of love, loss and heartache, many punctuated with moving musical numbers. Rosenberg, a traveling folk bard who sometimes calls Joshua Tree home, gave insight into the people and events behind the songs he played. Collins and Stewart teamed up to perform a duet of Stewart’s hauntingly beautiful ballad “Sleeping in the Graveyard.” She was also joined by Middleton for a spell, with the Barrelhouse Wailers horn player bringing a jazzy touch of trombone to Collins’ folk rock numbers. While the chocolates handed out to the audience were a treat indeed, the sweetest gift was joining the musicians for genuinely heartfelt moments where poetry and pathos informed the playing. A perfectly delicious Valentine for local music lovers. ♦ Licity Collins licitycollins.com Rags Rosenberg www.ragsand bonesmusic.com

ian to seafood), omelets and scrambles. We often start with an order of the beignets — soft, light, pillowy pieces of fried sweet dough that are worlds better than a donut and a wonderful way to begin an indulgent weekend breakfast. My teenage son recently tried Cajun Kitchen’s chicken and waffles. The waffle was tender on the inside, crispy on the outside, and just a little sweet — everything a waffle should be. The whipped cream and strawberries (with sides of butter and fresh maple syrup) only added to its appeal. The fried chicken couldn’t have been better prepared (so light, crispy, tender and juicy!) but the seasoning left something to be desired. If Cajun Kitchen can up the salt and pepper, this dish would be flawless — like most everything else on the menu. Omelets are light, fluffy and full of the most flavorful ingredients — from fresh vegetables to rich cheeses to a variety of meats. Pancakes are soft and tender as can be. For a Cajun place, the Mexican specialties are on point; the chile verde is particularly good. All the eggs Benedict versions are great, with well-married ingredients and a Hollandaise sauce that is silky smooth with a lemony zing. The burritos are enormous and deeply satisfying, and even better when smothered in chili. So enamored am I of Cajun Kitchen’s breakfast that I’ve never actually had any of the lunch items — which include the usual burgers and sandwiches but also jambalaya, po’ boys, etouffée and other Southern specialties. Thus, I recently I went off-script with a bowl of filé gumbo. It was a beautiful dark brown from the roux, filled with chicken and spicy sausage. The flavors were intense and the spice was both big and long. Perfect for a cold winter lunch, especially with a generous side of cornbread. My hedonistic youth has passed, but my love for Cajun Kitchen abides. It’s still a comfortable refuge from the world, with good food that fuels me for whatever comes next. The more things change, the more they stay the same . . . and in Cajun Kitchen’s case, that is a good thing. ♦

ADVICE GODDESS

Flee Infestation

isturbingly, I’ve had two close female friends “ghost” me in five months. I’ve known each for 15 years. (They don’t know each other, and one lives out of state.) I’ve tried repeatedly to contact each, asking “Did I do anything to hurt or offend you?” No response. I just want the truth so I can move on. — Baffled There comes a time when you wish someone would treat you with a little more kindness, like by screaming out all the reasons you deserve to be left for dead and have your face eaten off by raccoons. Even more painful than being

by amy alkon dumped by a friend is being dumped by a friend and having no idea why. Lingering questions we can’t answer are mental weevils. Their fave food is our peace of mind, which they gnaw through at random moments. In scientific terms, psychologist Bluma Zeigarnik found that when we have unfinished business, the mind remains in a “state of tension” until we get closure. Questions that are both unanswered and unanswerable eat away at us because of the way our memory is engineered. Psychologist Robert Bjork explains that we encode information into memory by first taking it in, then taking a break from it, and later going back and retrieving it. Each “retrieval” is a “learning event,” burnishing the info more deeply into memory. So, each time you pull up this unanswerable question, “Why did these friends ditch me?” you move it a seat or two closer to the front row of your consciousness. To shove it back to the crappier seats, consider the apparent function of nagging questions: pushing us to figure things out. (We can’t learn from our mistakes unless we know what they were.) Though “Why did they ditch me?” will likely remain a mystery, there are constructive questions you can answer, like, “Am I generally a good friend? Are there

ways I fell short?” Also consider whether you have shared values. We like to believe this is the basis of our friendships. However, I love the finding by psychologist Mitja Back that we tend to form friendships through “mere proximity” — like being next-door neighbors — though we’ll congratulate ourselves for “choosing” so wisely. . . . well, until we find out who they voted for. Another way to cut the spin cycle is imagining a plausible reason each disappeared on you (like clashing val-

“Hey, self, remember I’ve decided to accept that I just can’t know, and I’m good with that.” Comforting as it would be to finally get answers, sometimes the kindest thing you can do for yourself is not only give up hope but crush it, burn it in a trash can, and then flush its ashes down the toilet.

Mop! In The Name Of Love Why are men okay with living in gross conditions? The guy I started dating is a sweetheart, but his place is absolutely disgusting (including the kitchen and bathroom). He doesn’t even notice it. Why do women seem to have a higher standard for cleanliness than men? — Dismayed

Even more painful than being dumped by a friend is being dumped by a friend and having no idea why. ues) and accepting it as THE reason. Psychologist Elizabeth Loftus finds that recalling an event we were told about but didn’t actually experience can implant it in memory, turning it into an experience we swear we had. So, the more you reflect on the plausible reason, the more it might pass for the actual one. Finally, you could try to make peace with the mystery. When “Why did they ditch me?” swings around, have a stock answer at the ready:

Some men do wait a while to clean the bathroom — like until they go from needing a bottle of Mr. Clean to needing a bottle of Mr. Arson. Science suggests you’re right in observing that men, generally speaking, are less disturbed by gross living conditions. Study after study finds higher “disgust sensitivity” in women, meaning women tend to be more icked out by signs of pathogens — bacteria and microorganisms — and indications of possible infection or disease. Evolutionary psychologist Diana Fleischman explains that women

have faced recurring issues over evolutionary history that may have led to “heightened pathogen disgust sensitivity.” These include women’s temporary declines in immunity during the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. “Women also must protect children and infants who are vulnerable (to) disease.” Additionally, women are “uniquely able” to pass infections on to their offspring during pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding. Let the guy know you’re a woman with needs: clean sheets and towels, a clean bathroom and kitchen, and general housekeeping at his place. Suggest options (rather than telling him what to do): He could clean the place himself; however, hiring a cleaning service (especially for the first go-round) might be a good idea. Professionals have vastly higher standards for cleanliness, while he seems to be waiting for a sign to scour the place — like the crud on the coffee table growling at him when he sets down his beer.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

Do you feel ready to change your mind about an idea or belief or theory that has been losing its usefulness? Would you consider changing your relationship with a once-powerful influence that is becoming less crucial to your life-long goals? Is it possible you have outgrown one of your heroes or teachers? Do you wonder if maybe it’s time for you to put less faith in a certain sacred cow or overvalued idol? According to my analysis of your astrological omens, you’ll benefit from meditating on these questions during the coming weeks.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

When she was alive more than 2,500 years ago, the Greek poet Sappho was so famous for her lyrical creations that people referred to her as “The Poetess” and the “Tenth Muse.” (In Greek mythology, there were nine muses, all goddesses.) She was a prolific writer who produced over 10,000 lines of verse, and even today she remains one of the world’s most celebrated poets. I propose that we make her your inspirational role model for the coming months. In my view, you’re poised to generate a wealth of enduring beauty in your own chosen sphere. Proposed experiment: Regard your daily life as an art project.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

Have you ever dropped out of the daily grind for a few hours or even a few days so as to compose a master plan for your life? The coming weeks will be an excellent time to give yourself that necessary luxury. According to my analysis, you’re entering a phase when you’ll generate good fortune for yourself if you think deep thoughts about how to create your future. What would you like the story of your life to be on March 1, 2025? How about March 1, 2030?

by rob brezsny

And March 1, 2035? I encourage you to consult your soul’s code and formulate an inspired, invigorating blueprint for the coming years. Write it down!

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

Cancerian novelist William Makepeace Thackeray (1819–1875) is famous for Vanity Fair, a satirical panorama of 19th-century British society. The phrase “Vanity Fair” had been previously used, though with different meanings, in the Bible’s book of Ecclesiastes, as well as in works by John Bunyan and St. Augustine. Thackeray was lying in bed near sleep one night when the idea flew into his head to use it for his own story. He was so thrilled, he leaped up and ran around his room chanting “Vanity Fair! Vanity Fair!” I’m foreseeing at least one epiphany like this for you in the coming weeks, Cancerian. What area of your life needs a burst of delicious inspiration?

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Who loves you best, Leo? Which of your allies and loved ones come closest to seeing you and appreciating you for who you really are? Of all the people in your life, which have done most to help you become the soulful star you want to be? Are there gem-like characters on the peripheries of your world that you would like to draw nearer? Are there energy drains that you’ve allowed to play too prominent a role? I hope you’ll meditate on questions like these in the coming weeks. You’re in a phase when you can access a wealth of useful insights and revelations about how to skillfully manage your relationships. It’s also a good time to reward and nurture those allies who have given you so much.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Doom and gloom dominate the forecasts made by many prophets. They experience perverse glee in

predicting, for example, that all the rain forests and rivers will be owned by greedy corporations by 2050, or that extraterrestrial invaders who resemble crocodiles will take control of the U.S. government “for the good of the American people,” or that climate change will eventually render chocolate and bananas obsolete. That’s not how I operate. I deplore the idea that it’s only the nasty prognostications that are interesting. In that spirit, I make the following forecasts: The number of homeless Virgos will decrease dramatically in the near future, as will the number of dreamhome-less Virgos. In fact, I expect you folks will experience extra amounts of domestic bliss in the coming months. You may feel more at home in the world than ever before.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

I don’t require everyone I learn from to be an impeccable saint. If I vowed to draw inspiration only from those people who flawlessly embody every one of my ethical principles, there’d be no one to be inspired by. Even one of my greatest heroes, Martin Luther King Jr., cheated on his wife and plagiarized parts of his doctoral dissertation. Where do you stand on this issue, Libra? I bet you will soon be tested. How much imperfection is acceptable to you?

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Scorpio comedian John Cleese co-founded the troupe Monty Python more than 50 years ago, and he has been generating imaginative humor ever since. I suggest we call on his counsel as you enter the most creative phase of your astrological cycle. “This is the extraordinary thing about creativity,” he says. “If you just keep your mind resting against the subject in a friendly but persistent way, sooner or later you will get a reward from your unconscious.” Here’s another one of Cleese’s insights that will serve you well: “The most creative people have

learned to tolerate the slight discomfort of indecision for much longer, and so, just because they put in more pondering time, their solutions are more creative.”

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Sagittarian philosopher Baruch Spinoza (1632–1677) developed a vigorous and expansive vision. That’s why he became a leading intellectual influence in the era known as the Enlightenment. But because of his inventive, sometimes controversial ideas, he was shunned by his fellow Jews and had his books listed on the Catholic Church’s Index of Forbidden Books. Understandably, he sometimes felt isolated. To compensate, he spent lots of time alone taking wide-ranging journeys in his imagination. Even if you have all the friends and social stimulation you need, I hope you will follow his lead in the coming weeks — by taking wide-ranging journeys in your imagination. It’s time to roam and ramble in inner realms.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

“Absolute reason expired at eleven o’clock last night,” one character tells another in Henrik Ibsen’s play Peer Gynt. I’m happy to report that a different development is on the verge of occurring for you, Capricorn. In recent days, there may have been less than an ideal amount of reason and logic circulating in your world. But that situation will soon change. The imminent outbreak of good sense, rigorous sanity and practical wisdom will be quite tonic. Take advantage of this upcoming grace period. Initiate bold actions that are well-grounded in objective rather than subjective truth.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Renowned Aquarian composer Franz Schubert (1797–1828) created more than 700 compositions, some of which are still played by modern musicians. Many of his works were written on and for the piano — and yet he was so poor that he never owned a piano. If there has been a similar situation in your life, Aquarius — a lack of some crucial tool or support due to financial issues — I see the coming weeks as being an excellent time to set in motion the plans that will enable you to overcome and cure that problem.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

In 1908, British playwright W. Somerset Maugham reached the height of success. Four of his plays were being performed concurrently in four different London theaters. If you were ever in your life going to achieve anything near this level of overflowing popularity or attention, I suspect it would be this year. And if that’s a development you would enjoy and thrive on, I think the coming weeks will be an excellent time to set your intention and take audacious measures. Homework: I declare you champion, unvanquishable hero, and title-holder of triumphant glory. Do you accept? FreeWillAstrology.com

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 recorderʼs 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.

LEGAL at Juvenile Justice Center 4353 Vineyard Ave. Oxnard, CA 93036. YOU ARE FURTHER ADVISED as follows: At the hearing the Court must choose and implement one of the following permanent plans for the child: adoption, guardianship, or long term foster care. Parental rights may be terminated at this hearing. On 04/15/2020, the Human Services Agency will recommend termination of parental rights. The child may be ordered placed in long term foster care, subject to the regular review of the Juvenile Court; or, a legal guardian may be appointed for the child and letters of guardianship be issued; or, adoption may be identified as the permanent placement goal and the Court may order that efforts be made to locate an appropriate adoptive family for the child for a period not to exceed 180 days and set the matter for further review; or, parental rights may be terminated. You are entitled to be present at the hearing with your attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, you are entitled to have the Court appoint counsel for you. A thirty-day continuance may be granted if necessary for counsel to prepare the case. At all termination proceedings, the Court shall consider the wishes of the child and shall act in the best interest of the child. Any order of the Court permanently terminating parental rights under this section shall be conclusive and binding upon the minor person, upon the parent or parents, and upon all other persons who have been served with citation by publication or otherwise. After making such an order, the Court shall have no power to set aside, change, or modify it, but this shall not be construed to limit the rights to appeal the order. If the Court, by order or judgment, declares the child free from the custody and control of both parents, or one parent if the other no longer has custody and control, the Court shall, at the same time, order the child referred to the licensed County adoption agency for adoptive placement by that agency. The rights and procedures described above are set forth in detail in the California Welfare and Institutions Code Section 366.26. You are referred to that section for further particulars. Michael J.
