Purple is the New Party

Mr. Blagojevich goes back to Washington by Paul Moomjean

n the 1939 film Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Jimmy Stewart’s Jefferson Smith is appointed to Congress by a governor in an attempt to pass a bill giving another senator the ability to build a dam, in a scheme to get money. Stewart’s character fights the system, after having his name run through the mud, and ends up passing out in the halls of Congress, refusing to give up his integrity. Now, 80 years later, we still have corrupt politicians, but the heroes are no longer black and white. There was a time when President Donald Trump promised to “drain the swamp,” yet all we’ve seen are his friends and advisors go to jail. Meanwhile, the “lock her up” president just put a stop to the 14-year prison sentence of former congressman and Democratic Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich. The Chicago Tribune phrased it as clear as possible, stating that Trump “freed a former governor who attempted to shake down a children’s hospital for campaign funds and tried to sell President Barack Obama’s U.S. Senate seat.” When the liberal paper hates the former liberal governor, you know this is bad. “It’s discouraging for people in the state of Illinois to see this happen and that a disgraced former governor who is corrupt to the core is walking out of the federal prison based on a gift from the president,” Illinois House Republican Leader Jim Durkin stated after Blagojevich

was set free. “Blagojevich is the face of public corruption in Illinois, and not once has he shown any remorse for his clear and documented record of egregious crimes that undermined the trust placed in him by voters,” a handful of Illinois Republicans said in a released statement. Trump refused to respect his party, tweeting: “Rod Blagojevich did not sell the Senate seat. He served 8 years in prison, with many remaining. He paid a big price.” In some sick mindset, Trump must see this as a reach-across-the-aisle moment for the bombastic leader of the free world. All Trump has done is provide himself the ability to pardon other corrupt Republicans like his buddy Roger Stone down the road. I can imagine him justifying his actions by reminding people he freed a Democrat and now he needs to free a Republican. Blagojevich has shown no remorse at all since being out. He recently went on CNN to talk to Anderson Cooper. Cooper literally called him and his spin “bulls**t” on national television. “Since you’ve been out, and the statements you’ve made, you’ve shown no remorse for the crimes you were convicted by a jury of, and you’re portraying yourself as a victim of persecution by prosecutors,” Cooper said to Blagojevich. “Just about everyone who has actually looked at the evidence against has said that is just false.” Blagojevich self-righteously replied with,

“Well I don’t think they’ve looked carefully, as I am a political prisoner. I was put in prison for practicing politics.” He went on to argue that his attempt to sell Obama’s seat and hijack funds from a children’s hospital is just a normal day at work. And that is the sad reality of this partial pardon situation. All of these actions are just a reflection of Washington politics. Trump releasing Blagojevich is politics. The Republicans giving a tepid response is politics. CNN going after old news politicians is politics. Blagojevich selling the seat and quid pro quo tactics is politics. The impeachment is politics. Mitt Romney’s grandstanding moment of calling for Trump’s removal is politics. It’s all surreal. The idea of a Jefferson Smith character authentically fighting the system is not possible anymore; it’s not even believable in a world of fiction. Blagojevich has called himself a “Trumpocrat,” which means he’s a Democrat who will support the man who set him free. The swamp has one more critter swimming in the murky waters again, and he was put there by another corrupt man who has only continued to make conservatives look slimy and Democrats look weak. Trump once said he could shoot a man and not lose support. He just let a convicted felon from the other party go free, and his approval numbers didn’t take a hit. Trump seems to be right on about his supporters. It’s scary to think what’s next. ♦

Ventura River adjudication: remembering the past by Paul Jenkin

he current controversy surrounding the adjudication of water rights to the Ventura River has focused on the most recent efforts by the city of Ventura to secure its water rights to the Ventura River. Many may not know that this effort has deep roots in the past. The city of Ventura was incorporated in 1886, but its claim to the waters of the Ventura River extend back to the establishment of Mission San Buenaventura in 1782. In addition to the missions, the Spanish and Mexican governments also established a series of pueblos and ranchos between 1769 and 1835 in what later became the state of California. Despite not being a successor to one of the eight original Spanish or Mexican pueblos, the city has periodically asserted its claim to the waters of the Ventura River based on a pueblo water right. In 1976 the city of Ventura attempted to assert a pueblo water right against the Casitas Municipal Water District. The appropriative

4—

— February 27, 2020

water rights granted to Casitas in the 1950s required them to bypass the first 20 cubic feet per second of flow at the Robles Diversion to protect downstream water rights. The city claimed, however, that this provision did not fully protect its pueblo water rights. To resolve this dispute, without formally asserting and establishing the city’s pueblo water right, the city and Casitas proposed to enter into a Conjunctive Use Agreement. This agreement would have allowed Casitas to divert all of the low flow of the Ventura River at its Robles Diversion (up to 500 cubic feet per second) to Lake Casitas. In exchange Casitas would guarantee the city up to 6,000 acre-feet of water annually from Lake Casitas. In 1978, the Friends of the Ventura River filed a lawsuit challenging the environmental impact report’s conclusion that the Conjunctive Use Agreement would not adversely affect the Ventura River. In 1984, after losing in the lower courts, the California Supreme Court rejected the city’s appeal, effectively termi-

nating the Conjunctive Use Agreement. In 1997, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) listed steelhead trout in southern California as an endangered species. Rather than comply with new regulatory requirements, the city decided to forego surface diversion and instead rely on its wells at Foster Park. In 1998, the State of California formally recognized that the Ventura River was impaired by excessive pumping and diversions pursuant to the federal Clean Water Act. In 2003 NMFS sent a letter notifying the city that the continued operation of the Foster Park wells posed a serious threat to steelhead. In 2007 NMFS issued a “draft jeopardy biological opinion” that specified a minimum flow to protect steelhead at Foster Park. In response, the city chose to postpone repairs and enlargement of its well field, and recommenced the operation of its other existing wells in the Foster Park area. In 2013, the city’s hydrology consultants concluded that their pump-

ing was detrimental to critical habitat for endangered steelhead in the Ventura River. The city continued to pump unabated, and from 2014 to 2016 the Ventura River was pumped completely dry at Foster Park for a significant portion of the year. In 2014, after many years of monitoring water quality in the Ventura River under a program certified by the state, Santa Barbara Channelkeeper filed a lawsuit asking the state to compel the city to reduce its pumping at Foster Park consistent with NMFS requirements. The city responded by petitioning to have the lawsuit dismissed and also simultaneously filed cross-complaints against all other water rights holders in the watershed. The court rejected the city’s petition. In 2018, the appellate court allowed the city’s cross-complaint against all water rights holders to proceed. In 2019, the city signed an interim agreement with Santa Barbara Channelkeeper, based on the NMFS 2007 jeopardy biological opinion, and entered into a court-sponsored settlement agreement process

with major water purveyors and several major agricultural landowners. In January 2020, the city of Ventura commenced adjudication by serving legal summons to over 10,000 individual water rights holders in the Ventura River watershed. Ventura Assistant City Manager Akbar Alikhan, responding to questions about the Ventura River adjudication, claimed “ . . . this is not a water grab. We are trying to find a solution that balances the needs of the local habitat while still providing the valuable water to our local residences.” Given the city’s long history of claiming unlimited and unrestricted rights to the waters of the Ventura River, it is reasonable to ask what that balance will be. Residents who use the watershed, whether as water supply or outdoor recreation, have a stake in the outcome of this latest chapter in the long history of exploitation of the Ventura River. ♦ Paul Jenkin is the campaign coordinator for the Surfrider Foundation's Ventura County chapter.

“He knows where Ventura County is”

Local leaders discuss environmental justice at Tom Steyer’s Climate Town Hall by David Michael Courtland

reduce California’s greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by this year. “Ventura County has benefited from his leadership,” Pavley said. “His NextGen America foundation funds good projects.” In 2017, Steyer’s green energy advocacy group, NextGen America, released a video opposing plans to replace the Mandalay Generating Station with a gas-fired plant on Oxnard’s coast. “One thing I can say is that, if he becomes president, he knows where Ventura County is,” Pavley said. Irwin also noted Steyer’s grassroots activist efforts in Ventura County, recalling that he made “a big investment” in voter registration when she first ran for California State Assembly. Irwin said she is a big supporter of infrastructure projects like the planned Rice Avenue grade separation, which she said would reduce traffic and thus pollution. Steyer has said that if he is elected president, on his first day in office he will declare that climate change is a national emergency so that he can use special powers to deal with its impact. “Not only its physical impact but its impact on lower income people,” Pavley noted. “He’s been very strong on reducing air and water pol-

Voters say homelessness, affordable housing top concerns Clinicas survey shows voter dissatisfaction by Kimberly Rivers kimberly@vcreporter.com

ccording to results of a survey conducted in January 2020, white and Latinx voters are aligned in several key areas, including a general dissatisfaction with how local elected officials are serving them. The survey, commissioned by Ventura County-based healthcare provider Clinicas del Camino Real and performed by Strategies 360, contacted 600 registered voters in Ventura County. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish on landlines, cell phones and online Jan. 10-14. Only 27 percent of survey respondents overall say city and county elected officials are addressing the important issues, and most say their representatives are more influenced by big corporations and special interests than the needs of the community. Democrats are slightly more content, with 34 percent saying the important issues are being addressed, while just 19 percent of Republicans say the right issues are prioritized by local elected officials. When filtered for white and Latinx voters, the satisfaction level is more balanced: 26 percent of white and 31 percent of Latinx respondents report that local officials are working on the most important issues. The survey also found that 50 percent of Ventura County voters strongly disapprove of President Donald Trump; that number jumps to 71 percent with Latinx voters. While nearly half of the surveyed voters (48

— February 27, 2020

percent) responded that they view the local economy as “excellent” or “good,” just over a third of Latinx voters shared that view. When looking just at responses from Latina women, that number drops to 26 percent. According to the report, that difference could be due to “recent financial experiences”: Just under a quarter (24 percent) of Latinx voters say that “they are living comfortably, compared to 34 percent of white voters.” The financial insecurity expressed by Latinx voters is borne out in the findings that a strong majority (70 percent) of them name housing costs as a major concern. More than six in 10 voters responding in the survey expressed that local elected officials should be doing more to solve homelessness and provide more affordable housing, and placed those two issues well in front of economy, jobs, crime, environmental issues and healthcare. Forty-seven percent of all voters (51 percent of Latinx voters) put more affordable housing as the single top priority that elected officials should be addressing in Ventura County. Improving public education was a second top priority called out in the survey, particularly among Latinx respondents. Commonalities expressed in the survey include low grades for elected officials serving underserved communities, with less than one third (32 percent) of Latinx voters responding that their representatives are doing a good job supporting policy that serves the Latinx community. ♦

upporters of Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer talked about his support of their efforts to deal with climate change at the Climate Warriors’ Town Hall held at the community center of the Oxnard Performing Arts Center (formerly the PACC) on Monday, Feb. 17. “It’s not often you know a [presidential] candidate; I’ve shaken hands with two or three of the others,” said former State Senator Fran Pavley, who represented parts of Ventura County for 14 years in the state legislature. “I’ve actually known Tom for 10 years.” Other panelists included 44th District Assemblywoman Jacqui Irwin. Rounding out the panel was Christen Hebrard of the Young Democrats of America. The panel was introduced by Oxnard Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez. “Climate change has always been one of my top priorities,” Pavley said, “but he’s the only one I know who over the last 10 years has done something about it.” Pavley said Steyer’s voter registration drive in 2010 helped defeat Prop. 23, which was designed to undo her landmark Global Warming Solutions Act, also known as AB32.

VC Bar Association releases ratings for judicial candidates by Kimberly Rivers kimberly@vcreporter.com

n Feb. 11, the Ventura County Bar Association (VCBA) released its ratings of the four candidates for the two judicial offices (Office 2 and Office 8) open in Ventura County Superior Court on the March 3 ballot. The VCBA Judicial Evaluations Committee is made up of 11 VCBA members who conduct a review of each candidate that includes confidential questionnaires from attorneys and judges. The candidates are given an overall rating and rated in the categories of professional ability, professional experience, judicial temperament, professional reputation and work ethic/ resource management. Judicial Office No. 2 Martin Zaehringer, overall rating of “Exceptionally Well Qualified,” the highest ranking possible. For each of the categories Zaehringer received the highest rating of “Outstanding.” He is the only candidate for judicial office on the ballot to receive the highest overall rating and the highest rating in all categories. According to the statement released by the VCBA, “A rating of Exceptionally Well Qualified means the candidate’s performance in each rating category is remarkably or extraordinarily superior, so that, without real doubt, the candidate is fit to perform in judicial office with distinction,” Catherine M. Voelker received the overall rating of “Well Qualified,” and received the highest rating of “Outstanding” in the categories of professional ability and work ethic/

resource management. She received the second highest rating of “Very Good” in the categories of professional experience, judicial temperament and professional reputation. The rating of “Well Qualified” from the VCBA “means that the candidate’s performance in each rating category is indicative of superior fitness to perform in the judicial office with a high degree of skill and effectiveness. Judicial Office No. 8 Ventura County Superior Court Commissioner Paul W. Baelly received the second highest overall rating of “Well Qualified,” and received the highest rating of “Outstanding” for the categories of judicial temperament and professional reputation. He received the second highest rating of “Very Good” for professional ability, professional experience and work ethic/resource management. Steve Pell received the lowest overall ranking of “Not Qualified.” He received the rating of “Satisfactory” for professional experience and judicial temperament, and a rating of “Unsatisfactory” in the categories of professional ability, professional reputation and work ethic/ resource management. Pell has been endorsed by the Ventura County Democratic Party and has no record of disciplinary action listed with the California State Bar Association. Receiving “Not Qualified” from the committee means they have determined the candidate lacks “fitness to perform satisfactorily” in one or more of the categories. ♦

Eye on the Environment

In Brief

Energy waste versus solid waste: Don’t wait to switch out LED bulbs by David Goldstein

re you waiting until your incandescent light bulbs burn out before switching to LED bulbs? Experts agree, from both a financial and an environmental perspective, that it makes sense to throw your perfectly working incandescent bulbs in the trash and replace them with LEDs. Severin Borenstein, a professor at University of California, Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, in his online Berkeley Blog, uses people’s unwillingness to discard working incandescent bulbs as an example of the “sunk cost fallacy,” a common error in judgment resulting from decision-making abilities becoming warped by previous investments. As Southern California Edison spokesperson Sally Jeun explains, LED bulbs “use about 80 percent less electricity and last up to 10 times longer,” so the small amount of waste created by discarding a functioning incandescent is much less than the amount of waste created by operating an inefficient lightbulb. Of course, the comparison is not obvious, since the waste of discarding a bulb is solid waste, while the waste of operating an inefficient bulb seems invisible. Solving this environmental puzzle requires looking at the

purpose of solid waste prevention. One purpose is keeping material out of landfills, but lightbulb glass is a tiny fraction of a landfill’s contents, so that is not significant. Saving energy and conserving resources are larger environmental goals of waste prevention, whether accomplished through recycling or extending product life. Since discarding an incandescent bulb early and replacing it with an LED saves so much electricity, these factors also favor early replacement. When compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) were the major alternative to incandescent bulbs, people had many reasons not to switch. Some CFLs flickered, their light did not look like incandescent light and many were badly made, undermining the claim of longer life. Worse, when CFLs broke, they could spread toxic mercury. When they burned out, they had to be dropped off at special recycling centers. In contrast, switching to LEDs has no such drawbacks. LEDs gradually dim, rather than burning out, but they usually maintain light levels comparable to similarly rated incandescent bulbs for decades. Also, LEDs have a “range of light color temperatures,”

according to YLighting, an online bulb seller. Experiment with LEDs listing various “color coordinated temperature” ratings to find one you like. The YLighting website notes that many people prefer “white” light for ambient use, such as in a kitchen, but prefer bluer, more natural-looking light for fixtures such as bedside reading lamps. Last year, Sunset K-8 Elementary School in the Ventura Unified School District received a $4,400 rebate from a lighting manufacturer, bringing its cost down to just $8,600 for the replacement of 1,500 32-watt, T8 fluorescent lamps with all 10-watt LEDs. The school is now saving nearly $23,000 per year, according to Dave Marshall, the district’s facilities services director. Currently, Southern California Edison does not provide financial incentives for conversion to LEDs, but its website does provide informational assistance.

White-tailed kites return by Kimberly Rivers kimberly@vcreporter.com

Black shoulder patches are an easy identifier and juveniles have orangish brown (sometimes called cinnamon) coloring on the chest and top of the head. “What’s special is they are a beautiful bird and not in the numbers that you see red-tailed or red-shouldered hawks. When you see one, and sometimes two, they are a treat,” said James Susha with Ventura Audubon. “I checked our Christmas Bird Count data through 2018 and they show up every year, but not in great numbers (9-19) within our 15-mile circle. I’ve seen them at Satwiwa, Carpinteria Salt Marsh, Lake Casitas, Santa Clara River Estuary and Wheeler Canyon Road . . . Climate change will impact this species along with many others. ♦ PHOTO BY RON MERKORD

arlier this month Ron and Lisa Merkord noticed the return of a pair of white-tailed kites to their property in Bardsdale after a few years of not seeing them. Ron thinks food supply may have had something to do with their local hiatus. “My guess would be that the six or so years of drought caused them to move elsewhere, where their rodent food was more plentiful,” he said. He doesn’t know if they left the whole county, but it’s been years since he’s seen them on their ranch. “After last year’s rains, this would have brought back more food for them.” Usually spotted in fields or open marshlands and river valleys, these mid-sized (14-17 inches) hawks hunt small mammals by hovering or “kiting” in place before diving down to snatch prey using their strong talons. The kite’s range is small in the U.S., reaching up along the coastal areas of the West Coast, but then spreading south across Mexico and Central and South America. 8— — February 27, 2020

Point Mugu to be coronavirus quarantine area As of Feb. 25, one person — a U.S. citizen travelling through Los Angeles International Airport from an area where they may have been exposed to the novel coronavirus — is in quarantine at Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) Point Mugu. On Feb. 23, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) issued a statement that NBVC Point Mugu is being prepared to potentially be used as a quarantine area for travelers coming through Los Angeles International Airport who have been identified for monitoring for “symptoms of COVID-19 [novel coronavirus] based solely on their travel history.” Anyone held at the base will be monitored, and then transported to healthcare facilities for treatment if they develop symptoms. Recently Ventura County has tested two individuals that met the Centers for Disease Control criteria for novel coronavirus screening, and both came back negative for the virus. The DHHS statement included the notice that while there have been some “imported cases” of the virus detected in the U.S., the virus “is not currently spreading” in the country and “the immediate risk of this new virus to the American public is believed to be low at this time.” Oil company Termo fined for illegal disposal in Ventura County The Ventura County District Attorney has announced that The Termo Company has agreed to be fined $143,000 for it’s illegal disposal of oil field waste at Anterra Energy Services on Wooley Road in Oxnard. “This is the resolution of Termo’s responsibility for its past unlawful dumping at Anterra,” said Mitch Disney, senior deputy district attorney with the Ventura County District Attorney’s office. Termo, based in Long Beach, operates in Los Angeles and Ventura counties. Anterra, currently closed due to issues with pressure problems in its injection disposal well, is the only commercial Class II waste disposal site in Southern California, and last year was fined nearly $500,000 for accepting hazardous waste it was not authorized to accept, including waste from Termo. Injection disposal wells operate by waste being injected for disposal into a particular geological formation underground. Research puts microplastics lower in food chain Research being done at California State University Channel Islands (CSUCI) has shown that microplastics are present in sand

crabs along the California coast. “These are the main critters that live on the sand and they’re really important because the fish eat them, the shore birds and otters eat them and on up the food chain,” said Dorothy Horn, CSUCI 2016 graduate, who is conducting the research with Clare Steele, Ph.D., assistant professor of Environmental Science and Resource Management (ESRM). “Every ecosystem is like a Jenga puzzle. You might be able to pull out a few blocks and it looks OK, but you pull out another block and the whole puzzle crumbles.” Their research examined sand from 51 different beaches along the California coast, finding that all contained microplastics. In addition, about 35 percent of sand crabs dissected between Alaska and San Diego contained microplastics. One experiment conducted by Horn and Steele involved incubating sand crabs and introducing microplastics. Results show that those exposed to polypropylene microfibers die sooner, and there are negative impacts on the crab embryos. Horn says other research has found microplastics in human feces and tiny fibers in human lung tissue. “The good part is, the more we’re finding out, the more it pushes policy,” Horn said. “There are plastics in bottled drinking water, for example, and California has passed a law that we measure that amount. All of this brings more money into the research field so we can find out.” Horn and Steele’s research has been published in the journal Limnology and Oceanography Letters. Co-authors included Elise Granek, Ph.D., a professor of environmental science and management at Portland State University in Oregon. https:// aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/ doi/full/10.1002/lol2.10137 Oxnard signs deal with Sterling for management of the PAC The city of Oxnard has entered into a five-year agreement with Sterling Venue Ventures for operation of the Oxnard Performing Arts Center’s (PAC) large auditorium, and a separate five-year agreement to operate meeting rooms in the Community Center working with the Oxnard Performing Arts Center Corporation (OPACC). While these agreements keep the PAC open for the time being, there appear to be some rifts. OPACC board member Manuel Herrera has resigned, expressing that he is less than satisfied with the agreements the city has made. Sterling is owned by Ventura County residents Lance and Caryn Sterling. by Kimberly Rivers

Going the distance

L.A. Marathon Legacy Runners will be racing to the finish line on March 8 by Alicia Doyle alicia@aliciadoyle.com

he Los Angeles Marathon has been a spring tradition since 1986. Originally inspired by the 1984 Summer Olympics, it has become one of the most popular marathons in the world, with racers from all parts of the globe landing in the City of Angels to partake. Trotting alongside them, from the very beginning, are numerous Ventura County runners. Among these are the race’s Legacy Runners — those who have completed every single L.A. Marathon since the beginning. Several residents of Ventura County will continue their streak, running in their 35th consecutive marathon this year on March 8.

MARIE STEVENSON: “AN ANNUAL FAMILY EVENT”

Marie Stevenson

Cliff Housego 10 —

Ruben Rosales

Jahangir Mehrkhodavandi — February 27, 2020

Jim Blanck

For 74-year-old Marie Stevenson, “all I want to do is to encourage others to keep being active and doing what they enjoy.” Stevenson ran the first L.A. Marathon in 1986 because it was “conveniently” within driving distance from her home in Thousand Oaks. She continued running every year afterwards because she “really enjoyed” exploring Los Angeles on foot and experiencing the city up close. In fact, that has become one of the race’s biggest selling points: the opportunity to run past several of L.A.’s major landmarks — Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, Chinatown, the Walt Disney Concert Hall and Dodger Stadium, just to name a few. The course has shifted through the years as organizers attempted to balance elevation gains (which impact winning times), traffic disruptions and impact on local businesses and institutions. The current route was introduced in 2010, and has been dubbed “Stadium to the Sea,” beginning at Dodger Stadium and ending in Santa Monica. The number of people in America who have the grit and athleticism to finish a marathon is small in comparison to the overall population. In 2014, for instance, Running USA reported that 550,000 people completed a marathon in the U.S. While a record number of runners are completing 26.2mile races, marathoners still make up less than one percent of the American population. “My children used to laugh at their crazy mother, but now as adults, they encourage me to continue the streak,” said Stevenson, whose daughter has run the last few marathons with her,

and whose son has been popping up at various spots on the marathon course with his wife and children to offer additional support. “Although the running is not getting any easier as I get older, the L.A. Marathon has become an annual family event that we all enjoy,” Stevenson said. In the past 34 years, Stevenson has always finished the marathon — despite some serious injuries, including torn knee tendons and rotator cuffs and various foot issues. In the year 2000, she had “a close call” when she had an emergency knee surgery just weeks before the race. “I walked the entire marathon course with a large cast on my knee and with a cane,” she remembered. In 2006, after a rotator cuff repair and with her arm in a sling, she fell and broke a shoulder just prior to the race. “That’s when my children, by then out of college, really showed their support,” Stevenson recalled. “To make sure that I don’t quit, as an early birthday gift to me, they both signed up for the marathon. Not having done any training, they expected to walk with me. We ended up running the entire distance. Crossing the finish line together was a favorite marathon moment for me.”

RUBEN ROSALES: “PUT ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER” For 71-year-old Ruben Rosales of Thousand Oaks, running the marathon’s 26.2-mile course for the past 34 years has kept him active “and feeling good about myself.” Also, “I have met many runners who have enriched my life by sharing life stories as we train and run the marathons.” Rosales was initially inspired to run in the marathon because of his intrigue with Philippides, the central figure in a Greek legend that inspired the marathon race. Philippides (also called Pheidippides), an Athenian herald, is said to have run from Marathon to Athens to announce the Greek victory over Persia at the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC. “Then the Olympic Games came to Los Angeles in 1984 and I watched the marathon runners with awe, so when the first L.A. Marathon was announced for 1986, I was in,” he recalled. What keeps him going year after year is the challenge of endurance, “which translates to all facts of life.” “To run a marathon you just need to put one foot in front of the other.

So to run for 34 years, you just need to take one year at a time and just do it, just like everyday life,” Rosales said. “The day will come when I will not be able to run it, but hopefully that day is not this year. If my body tells me that I cannot complete it after I have started it, I will listen to it — but so far it has not complained. No one pressures me except me to keep doing this.”

CLIFF HOUSEGO: “AN ANCHOR IN MY LIFE” Though he’s not an official legacy runner, when Cliff Housego finished his fifth marathon, he received an official plaque, and “I thought that’s cool — how could a common runner like me get an award at a 26.2-mile marathon?” Then came marathon number 10, and “I was amazed I did them all.

VCREPORTER.COM . . then came 15, 20, 25, 30 and now 35.” Housego, of Ventura, noted that he’s been through two wives over the years, and experienced the death of his daughter, so the marathon has been “an anchor in my life.” “Not just running the marathon, but training, all year . . . the friends I’ve made,” he said. “Ruben Rosales and I run every week together. We talk

Keeping the streak alive is his biggest motivator, “but this did not start until year five” when he was trying to improve and get better, “and after year five, my motivation was keeping my streak.” The biggest challenges Mehrkhodavandi has faced in the past 34 years include the three times he ran the marathon with a fever. Also, three weeks

just my own personal challenge,” said Blanck, 63, of Simi Valley. “My family has always been a tremendous support so . . . I also wanted to make them proud of my crazy annual thing to do.” Still, maybe others will be inspired to set their own personal goals, he said, “when they see or hear about us old folks out there running the streets for nothing more than pride and a well-

life, kids, politics, investments . . . you name it.” Decades ago, he said it “was not a big deal” to run a 3:9:00 race, but today, at age 71, “it takes a lot. Hips hurt, knees hurt, attitude sucks sometimes, but I know I have to do it for my legacy friends, my family, and to stay alive.”

before the 2016 marathon, he tore his meniscus, but ended up running the full race without stopping. The marathon has been a big part of his life since 1986, and when he married his wife in 1994, “it became part of our lives.” “My wife jokes . . . that she feels that I am married to L.A. Marathon not her; or the L.A. Marathon is my first wife and she is my second.”

deserved finisher’s medal.” Above all, his main goal is reaching the finish line. “In the past I always tried to complete the race in under four hours,” Blanck said. “It is getting a bit more difficult to keep that up, but that is still my own personal goal for the race.” ♦

JAHANGIR MEHRKHODAVANDI: KEEPING THE STREAK ALIVE Jahangir Mehrkhodavandi, who was born in 1965, said he loved running, but was “really afraid” of marathons because he’d heard stories of people dying in such races. “My college coach advised against it in 1986, but I wanted to get that fear out of me, so I did it,” recalled Mehrkhodavandi, of Simi Valley.

JIM BLANCK: “MY CRAZY ANNUAL THING TO DO” After Jim Blanck finished his first marathon, he “was a wreck” and said, “never again.” Every year after that, he felt the personal challenge to try and do better. “Everything about the run was

acqui Burge would love five minutes of your time. Burge is the founder and CEO of Desk Yogi, a website featuring quick videos designed to help ease the toll that work life can have on our bodies, minds and overall wellness. “People think, ‘Oh, five minutes aren’t going to do anything,’” says Burge, sitting in her Ojai office with her dog, a rescued boxer named Bumper, dozing at her feet. “You’d be amazed at what five minutes will do. How much better you’ll feel [especially] if you sit at your desk for hours and hours.” “The goal is to help people create the habit of taking a fiveminute break every day. The goal is not to make you an expert in yoga or help you lose 20 pounds or achieve enlightenment. The goal is to help you feel better.” Burge adds, “History tells you that when you spend time each day for a moment of selfcare you feel better.” Desk Yogi offers a wide-range of video and audio content, from yoga and meditation to strengthening exercises and breath work, that you can do in your workspace. It offers personal and corporate subscriptions, including one challenge per month containing 12 different videos. Individuals and businesses can personalize the content according to their needs. “Some people do a video every day. Others ‘Netflix it’ and do several at a time . . . some companies watch mindfulness videos together before a meeting so they can all land in the same space.” Burge had the idea for Desk Yogi when she was working at Lynda.com (now LinkedIn Learning). She was teaching a weekly onsite yoga class, but not everyone who wanted to attend could get away for lunch. Burge asked the Human Resources department if she could broadcast an online yoga class that everyone in the company, in all its various locations, could follow without leaving their desks. Burge launched her weekly 15-minute “yoga mash-ups,” combining yoga, meditation, breath work, stretching and a little bit of fitness. They were a hit. “One day, this guy came up to me and he just didn’t seem like a yoga guy. It seemed like he was always working and never had a chance to see the sun. He told me the favorite part of his week was the yoga mash-ups. I was like, alright, he’s not the demographic I’ve been picturing in my brain. That’s when I decided to leave Lynda.com and start Desk Yogi.” That was October, 2014. Desk Yogi launched a year later and today it has subscribers all over the world. With Desk Yogi, Burge has created a customizable wellness platform that’s accessible to anyone, anywhere, anytime. But she soon began to miss teaching in person, one-on-one. So, in 2019, Burge opened Move Sanctuary, a brick and mortar studio in downtown Ojai. She leads small classes that incorporate her vast knowledge and experience, and that tap into various exercise philosophies — from ropes work, TRX and mobility exercises to meditation, yoga and breath work. She sometimes shakes things up with balance boards and giant Jenga blocks. The focus is always to strengthen “the deep core for grounding and stability to meet all the challenges of life. The work is both gentle and impactful,” and is suitable for “every body.” Burge is also a sought-after speaker, who gives talks and classes in Punk Wellness, or “radical self-care for a happy work life.” The name is a reference to when she played in punk bands after graduating from Sarah Lawrence College. Burge is like many people who have what she calls a “big life,” filled with family, kids, pets and work. She insists that establishing a routine for self-care is a necessity. It’s “protected time that is non-negotiable.” She carves out time for self-care — yoga, meditation, quiet time to think — in the morning before her kids get up. “I want to be the first one awake; the first heartbeat.”

In her Punk Wellness events, Burge talks about “the fallacy of work/life balance,” so she developed an approach to wellness that “recognizes the overlap between work, family, friends, all of it.” She offers tidbits about fitness, mindfulness, sleep and nutrition. “It’s important to have a few tricks up your sleeve because [life] is stressful. We’ve all had the experience of walking into a meeting knowing it’s going to be unpleasant. So how do you set yourself to be present? [How do you achieve] mindfulness instead of biting your nails and envisioning the worst?” Whether she’s teaching a class at Move Sanctuary, developing something new for Desk Yogi or speaking to a room full of busy professionals, Burge knows it’s possible for anyone to feel better — whether it’s a stressed-out customer service rep on “the other side of the screen,” or a working mom who makes the time to come to class. “Everybody has stress,” Burge says. “Hopefully you can find five minutes.” A little goes a long way. ♦

ew West Symphony (NWS) presents Duet of Remembrance, a two-concert package dedicated to the remembrance of the Holocaust and the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Nazi concent-ration camps. “Everyone is part of the continuation of the story. It’s really important,” says Music Director Michael Christie. “It’s amazing, the number of direct survivors and family of survivors who live in Ventura. The history of people’s experiences just within our own community is so moving. We are hoping we can pay some small homage to the experiences that ripple through the generations.” The first concert, entitled Dreams, takes place at the Fred Kavli Theatre at the Bank of America Performing Arts Center on Saturday, Feb. 29, and at Rancho Campana Performing Arts Center in Camarillo on Sunday, Mar. 1. The program includes the children’s opera Brundibár, performed by Los Robles Children’s Choir, and Felix Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, featuring the California Lutheran University Choir, Women’s Chorale and Areté Vocal Ensemble, with actors Brett Elliott and Jane Longenecker of the Kingsmen Shakespeare Company. The children’s opera Brundibár, written by Jewish Czech composer Hans Krása, with an original libretto by Adolf Hoffmeister, tells the story of the children of a small village who rise up against a treacherous bully. The simplicity of the story, and the triumph over adversity it celebrates, belies the opera’s dark and complicated history. Brundibár was originally written in 1938 for a government competition. The competition would ultimately be canceled, but the opera went on to be performed in 1942 by children at the Jewish Orphanage on Belgicka Street in Prague. By 1943, Krása and nearly all of the children from the orphanage (along with many others) were imprisoned at Theresienstadt concentration camp in Terezín. A score of Brundibár was smuggled in, and Krása adapted it for the instruments available there. The opera debuted in September of that year, performed by the children of the camp and directed by František Zelenka, formerly a stage manager at the Czech National Theatre. It would go on to be performed numerous times, including for Red Cross representatives who visited the camp in 1944, and for a Nazi propaganda film. The filmed production would be the last at the camp: Shortly after filming, all participants were sent to Auschwitz; nearly all were gassed upon arrival. NWS Directors Dana Rouse and Alicia Langness took care in helping the young choir members understand the context and importance of the opera. “You can’t let evil go

You have to stand together,” saysFAX Rouse,THIS who adds that Brundibár is “an important story.” Rouse and Langness emphasized the opera’s overall theme of good conquering evil. “It starts out rather bleak,” says Rouse, “but it ends triumphantly.” She describes the production as a “neat hybrid” of choir performance and theater production, with the children acting out their parts in costume while sharing the stage with the New West Symphony. Mendelssohn’s Midsummer Night’s Dream represents a triumph over evil, as well.

I’

ve lived in the Channel Islands Harbor area for eight years and I never knew about this local restaurant two minutes from my apartment: Quincy Street in Silver Strand Beach, a popular spot that has been going strong for 35 years. Besides a large selection of cocktails, beer and wine, the website claims that the restaurant is known for homemade barbeque sauce, seafood and pasta dishes. I warn you: Come with a big appetite! Walking in, it has a country and rustic, warm and inviting feeling to it. I spotted many pictures, jugs, clocks and cans on shelves, and even street signs near the ceiling. It was bustling with locals when three of us arrived at 6:30 p.m. on a Thursday night. As we browsed the menu, the waitress served us some munchies: a small bowl of carrots and broccoli with ranch dressing and small crostini topped with butter and parmesan cheese. My friends and I finally decided on a quarter-order of the Onion Brick ($7.95), spaghetti with meat sauce ($14.95) with a side of the “famous” wilted spinach salad ($4.95), half order of the spicy shrimp risotto ($11.98) and a small order of the barbecue baby back ribs ($19.95) with a side of baked beans and coleslaw. First up, the Onion Brick appetizer. These onions are fresh cut and deep fried in a homemade batter and served with homemade barbeque sauce. Even a quarter order was a lot! The onions were not overly battered and had the perfect amount of crisp to them. Dipping them in the barbecue sauce just added to the flavor.

The salad came out next, filled with spinach, fresh bacon bits and grated eggs topped with a sweet and tangy dressing. This is probably the best spinach salad I have ever had, thanks to that dressing and the ingredients being very fresh. Time for the main dishes!

It was very hearty from the meat, but it could’ve used some more marinara sauce and grated Romano or parmesan cheese. My friend enjoyed it with a glass of CK Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon ($7) that really brought out the flavor of the sauce. The spicy shrimp risotto had mushrooms and bell peppers in a creamy sauce. The shrimp was cooked and spiced to perfection and the cheese sauce was thick. This is a must order when you dine! We tried it with the 14 A Hands “Hot to Trot” Red Blend ($9).

If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be

postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call In Source Logic at 702-659-7766 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA0700112019-1.
