OPINION Editorial

Freedom versus independence

I

t’s been 243 years since the signing of “The unanimous declaration of the thirteen United States of America,” aka the Declaration of Independence, to address grievances regarding the ruling power of the “British Crown,” our reason for fireworks and barbecue mid-summer season.

It’s important to note, however, that the Declaration of Independence wasn’t signed after defeating the British; the treaties of peace between the two didn’t occur until November 1782. The Declaration of Independence was signed on 1776 after years of escalating tensions over British “taxation without representation” — the Boston Tea Party was one of the first acts of rebellion that led to the Revolutionary War. This was the official declaration of “we are mad as hell and we aren’t going to take it any more” with Great Britain.

Looking back at the immigrants who risked literal life and limb and ridicule from ruling classes in the New World and their homeland, the earliest colonizers of the 1700s were willing to risk it all due to lack of job and land ownership opportunities, crop failure, famine, religious and political persecution, etc. On Ancestory. com, “Migration to America in the 1700s,” there is a timeline of events for immigration into the colonies leading up to the Revolutionary War. For example: 1717: The English Parliament legalized transportation to American colonies as punishment; contractors began regular shipments from jails, mostly to Virginia and Maryland.

1718: Discontent with the land system: Absentee landlords, high rents, and short leases in the homeland motivated large numbers of Scotch-Irish to emigrate. Most settled first in New England, then in Maryland and Pennsylvania.

Now, flash forward to July 4, 2019, where corporations are people and kids are property and the majority of the land is owned by a relative few . . . and then we get angry about the homeless around us.

We are a land where the politicians say they aren’t on repeat, yet are saying the exact same things their predecessors said before them, and the voters can’t tell the difference. Still, we keep referring to our democracy as the best and fairest in the world despite the prevalence of sad news of the human condition coming from our beleaguered states.

At best, the general public is relegated to slim choices of only two parties and that is the best representation the Revolutionary War has gotten us, for a total population of 327 million and counting.

We created the Bill of Rights, along

with the Declaration of Independence, to ensure certain freedoms that were denied our Founding Fathers and their ancestors would not be taken away from future generations: “All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights like life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

But looking at the Bill of Rights, at just the First Amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances,” there is erosion from the inside.

As we look at family dysfunction, workplace tensions and social awkwardness, it’s all about “freedom of speech,” the things we say, how we say them and that we do not offend or anger any one at any time, lest … what?

For instance, one can lose their rights to see their children, based on an exchange of words in a heated argument. A kid can be expelled for “willful defiance,” whatever the authority figure interprets that to be. A kid was arrested at Buena High School for saying he would shoot up a school — no one seemed to make a big deal about why he felt that way, including being ignored or bullied. A man was arrested in November 2018 for making a credible threat to an officer but the Ventura City Attorney’s office and Ventura Police Department denied access to those records of the words that were exchanged. When authority figures ignore context of what leads to a heated exchange of words, we are then forced into a system of judgement and free speech rights are murky, period.

When World War II was over, there was some very tangible sense of unity, victory against tyranny and genocide, a shared vision of hope and promise despite underpinnings of other injustice. Now, we get suspicious of people looking at our car, which means those who don’t want to appear suspicious will also not look at any car. We are consumed by unjustified fear, national politics and arbitrary causes, neglecting our neighbors, friends and family on the street and failing to realize we are becoming the country our ancestors risked it all to escape.

As we celebrate the official Declaration of Independence, one question comes to mind: What is the difference between freedom and independence? One is earned, lest we don’t know what we have until it’s gone; and the other is a mission.

shouldn’t be trusted, respected or heard. But what parent who has seen the damage vaccines can do wouldn’t fight tooth and nail to protect their kids from any further harm. Parents are supposed to be protective of their kids, it’s part of the territory, and this bill is a direct threat

to my kids.

Beyond that though this bill is a threat to our country’s founding principles. Even if an individual thinks vaccines are the savior of civilization they should be concerned at the precedent being set by SB276’s mandating of medical practice, how else might this manifest down the line?

Even a doctor that thinks every patient should have every vaccine should take issue with the government inserting itself in between the doctor/patient relationship. The head of the CA Medical board is not a doctor, will never meet my kids, but they should decide what is best for my kids?

But my kids aren’t their concern, they are just two individuals. According to [State Sen. Richard] Pan whether or not my kids should get vaccinated should be in the charge of the CA Public health department because it’s a matter of public health. That it’s part of our social contract to vaccinate every single living person with or without informed consent in order to protect society as a whole.

But the conveniently overshadowed dark side of the “greatest good for the greatest number” stance is that the smallest number (say .07 percent), also known as a minority, are mercilessly sacrificed for the good of the greatest number. I’m not going to allow Pan to sacrifice my kids, I’m gonna fight with every ounce of strength I can muster and if we lose I will move my family out of state. If Pan was truly concerned about the children’s health he would be fighting for safer vaccines that are tested against true placebos by agencies that are not directly profiting from the mandating of vaccines.

Again thank you, every once in a while someone hears us, and when they do it sure feels empowering.

Sara Semmes Mom of two, Ex-vaxer THANK YOU for your phenomenal reporting piece called “Why the fervor to impose vaccinations via SB 276?”

It was a pleasure to read something so nonbiased with actual facts being reported!

Quake season

In Brief

Earthquakes rattle Ventura County coast, but is it out of the ordinary?

by Chris O’Neal chris@vcreporter.com

S

ome Ventura County residents may have felt a little jolt on the afternoon of June 12 when a 3.6 magnitude earthquake shook off the coast near Point Mugu. While no damage was reported, residents from Ventura to Thousand Oaks could feel it, and have left some wondering if it was a sign of bigger things to come.

The 3.6 magnitude quake had a depth of 11.6 miles and coincided with two appropriately named “earthquake swarms” that occurred a week prior, one near San Clemente Island and the other east of Los Angeles. Over 1,000 earthquakes ranging in magnitude from 1.5 to 3.6 occurred over a three-week period.

William Bilodeau, PhD, professor and chair of California Lutheran University’s Department of Geology, says that earthquake swarms are not uncommon.

“These things are going to happen, we’re on a plate boundary where the tectonic plates, the Pacific and North American, are in a constant state of stress and are moving on average three inches a year,” said Bilodeau. As the plates shift, pressure is transferred to other areas along fault lines, with which Southern California is riddled, the tectonics having formed ranges such

as the Santa Ynez and Santa Monica mountains.

Bilodeau says that stress can be transferred from minor quakes to other parts of the fault, and in the case of the San Andreas Fault, in 100 miles in either direction.

The chances of a big earthquake, says Bilodeau, are more likely to occur relatively soon after a quake swarm.

“It’s nothing to be more worried about than anything else; if it doesn’t happen within a few weeks or even a few days in the area of the swarm then chances are it’s probably not going to happen in that area,” said Bilodeau.

Preparing for the so-called big one has been a big priority for the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services. The California Earthquake Early Warning System is a program in collaboration with the U.S. Geological Survey. The program received approximately $15 million in funding in 2018, which is being used to complete a network of 463 sensors installed in remote areas around the state.

The ultimate goal is to expand an emergency alert text system to all residents in California. In January, the ShakeAlert app launched for residents of Los Angeles County and features alerts sent to smart phones seconds prior to an earth-

BODY FOUND IN MEINERS OAKS SLEDGEHAMMER MURDER CASE

The body of a man allegedly murdered by his roommate in Meiners Oaks has been recovered following a month-long search.

Houston Auer is believed to have been murdered on May 12. His roommate, Cameron Lykins, 23, was arrested and charged with murder and a special allegation that he used a sledgehammer in the death. The Ventura Count Sheriff’s Department said that there was strong evidence that the murder occurred in the home, but had not been able to find a body.

On June 23, a State Fish and Wildlife warden found what he believed to be human remains near Upper Big Tujunga Road in Los Angeles County. Upon recovery, the remains were confirmed to be Auer’s, but a cause of death has yet to be determined, pending an autopsy.

TALL SHIPS START FUNDRAISER FOR URGENT REPAIRS

The tall ships Hawaiian Chieftain and Lady Washington are in urgent need of repairs and the owners have turned to the community to fundraise for the pricey endeavor.

The ships, both of which visit both the Ventura and Channel Island harbors annually, require $120,000 in “critical repairs and maintenance projects” by July 31, according to an email sent by Grays Harbor Historical Seaport, which operates the ships out of Aberdeen, Washington.

“There are a lot of things the ships need,” said Brandi Bednarik, executive director. “One of the biggest costs are sails.

Right now, the old and worn sails on our ships have already seen nearly 4,000 days of howling wind, bright sun, rain showers and salt air.”

When docked, the ships host educational tours and excursions for the weeks they are in port. The fundraiser specifies that for $12, one foot of sail can be purchased, and donations can be made in increments of 1, 2, 5 or 10 feet of sail canvas.

ENDANGERED SPECIES PROTECTION SOUGHT FOR SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MOUNTAIN LIONS

GOATS RODEO Your eyes do not deceive you: goats have invaded the lot behind Golden China Restaurant in Ventura for a good cause. Approximately 70 goats from Ventura Brush Goats are hard at work clearing brush and weeds that could cause a potential fire hazard the only way they know how, by eating it all. According to the group, goats can clear brush that may be difficult for humans to access, can eat thistles and poison oak, and can trim trees from four feet off the ground. The so-called “mob grazing” can also prevent water runoff into the ocean as the goat’s hooves create “cups” that catch water. The herd, which arrived on Friday, June 28, will remain in the area for several weeks as they complete their mission. For more information on Ventura Brush Goats, visit www.venturabrushgoats.com.

The Center for Biological Diversity and the Mountain Lion Foundation have petitioned the California Fish and Game Commission to include protection for mountain lions in the California Endangered Species Act. “Our mountain lions are dying horrible deaths from car collisions and rat poison, and their populations are at risk from inbreeding too,” said Tiffany Yap, a biologist at the center and primary author of the petition. “Without a clear legal mandate to protect mountain lions from the threats that are killing them and hemming them in on all sides, these iconic wild cats will soon be gone from Southern California.”

Habitat loss is also cited as a reason

for dwindling populations, which has led to “dangerously low genetic diversity.” Further, urbanization has cut off the cougars from traveling outside of very specific areas.

“Very few young lions can make their way through the maze of homes that dot the hillsides of Southern California,” said Lynn Cullens, executive director of the Mountain Lion Foundation. “It’s time to recognize the threats that face mountain lions and improve our ability to protect them, because they matter for their own sakes and have significant value to all Californians.”

VENTURA POLICE WARN OF RENTAL SCAM

It can be hard enough to find a rental in Ventura without having to worry about being ripped off, but the City of Ventura Police Department says that you should be wary.

Since early June, the Department says that several residents have been scammed into giving a first month’s rent and deposit to scammers posing as homeowners.

Police say that if it sounds too good to be true (i.e., lower than average rent in the area), it probably is, and to avoid listings that require wire transfers of money or ask for money up front.

If you believe you’re being targeted, contact the Ventura Police Department at 805-339-4400 and report the listing to the Federal Trade Commission at www. ftccomplaintassistant.gov.

anet Barron not only works at Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Ventura County, Inc., she is also a volunteer. She currently serves as training coordinator while also dedicating her time as a CASA, which was an opportunity to help that she was certain of but had initially decided to postpone because her children were still in grade school.

“My appointee knew what CASA was, but was not assigned to the program at that time. When she asked me to be her CASA I felt like I couldn’t refuse her and become yet another adult that had let her down,” Barron said.

For the last four years, she has been assigned a youth whose best interests she has advocated for in many areas including court, education, health care, employment and housing.

Barron beams with pride with each step forward that her youth takes, including graduating high school equivalency and starting community college this year. Receiving a hug after six months as her CASA was a particularly memorable encounter.

“Youth in foster care often have trust issues because their trust has been broken by adults in their lives. It can take time to build your relationship and to gain the trust of a child that has been through so much,” she explained.

Thus, she unequivocally supports the mission of CASA and believes in being a good advocate: being an attentive listener, and advocating for the specific needs for the specific youth at that time.

And by helping this particular teen, she feels that she has acquired the skills to become a better advocate.

“I have learned so much in the time I have been with my appointee and I feel like I am still learning. If I had to pinpoint one thing it would be the intricacies of the child welfare system.

It is very complicated and has changed a lot in the past five years,” said Barron.

She added that providing the much-needed help as a volunteer to youth in the welfare system is possible in more than one way. With 10-15 hours per month, one could be an effective CASA. Per California law, children may retain an advocate until age 21 and at that time, may choose to end the [CASA] relationship.

Barron is ready and willing to stand by her youth indefinitely.

inda Catlin’s desire to help others, especially youth, began when she herself was a teen and has prevailed throughout her life. In high school, she volunteered after school and during the summer at Pacific Palisades YMCA. Thereafter, Catlin enrolled at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) where she continued to volunteer in the summers.

“I strongly believe my role helped these kids rise to a higher level and higher goals,” said Catlin.

She went on to teach for 13 years, where her focus was cultivating her students education both in and out of the classroom.

She began at a low-income school where she was deeply involved in enrichment classes in music and art, along with academics during and after school.

Catlin moved on to real estate but her helping hand was not idle, especially following the sale of her husband David’s company in 2003, which allowed more time for philanthropic efforts.

Catlin joined Casa Pacifica Centers for Children and Families, serving on the Angels board and chairing or co-chairing two of the annual galas.

Subsequently, she became involved with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Conejo Valley (BGCGCV). Over the last 14 years, Catlin has been an active member of the BGCGCV (David is on the Finance Committee). She has served in numerous roles including as the first female chair of the board and hosted many fundraisers at her home.

“BGCGCV serves over 4,000 children at 10 locations in this area. There is a wealth of nationally proven studies relating to the positive impact on these young people leading to them becoming better citizens, enhanced interpersonal skills, higher graduation success, and happier and more successful lives after graduation,” she stated.

She adds that, “Many of the club attendees require scholarships to be able to attend, which is where our fundraising plays a critical part.”

Catlin’s support for BGCGCV is unwavering. Her contribution to the expansion of the club at Lindero Canyon Middle School was significant; the club was renamed the Linda and David Catlin Boys & Girls Club.

Years ago, Catlin committed to giving to BGCGCV as well as Conejo Senior Concerns, where she disclosed that David has been active for the last 14 years. She has been determined to also offer her time to other causes because simply put, she wants the best for Conejo Valley.

For now, that’s following through with BGCGCV’s next goal: add a number of K-6 schools in Newbury Park and Thousand Oaks where the organization can establish clubs on their campus.

S

ince he was 19 years old, Dennis Kulzer had the opportunity to travel the world. Consequently, he developed the need to not only explore another country but to find a way to help. So, he and his wife, Jayne, joined the Peace Corps where they were assigned as teachers in Tonga for more than two years.

“I was very fortunate to have a Tongan teacher who had a vision to turn the industrial arts program towards a vocational training program that would provide the students practical skills that they could utilize in their villages and/or if they were to leave the country to work,” Kulzer explained.

He described the experience as hard but wonderful, and especially gratifying because the work that was done was carried on, as Kulzer found out when he visited Tonga five and then 20 years later.

Kulzer continued to give his time including serving five years in the 1980s as a volunteer firefighter in Seal Beach, California.

Currently, he volunteers with the annual Homeless Count Day in January, which he emphasized is of great importance because funding relies on how many [homeless] are counted.

Kulzer is also a volunteer work leader for Channel Islands National Park. And, for about six years he has been devoted to preparing for and attending planting trips on San Nicolas Island for Channel Islands Restoration.

Helping was ingrained in him and he has nurtured that inclination, with mutual support from his wife, Jayne, who is also dedicated to helping others.

“I am very fortunate to have parents that instilled the value of volunteering to us when growing up. They were always involved in church and other activities and gave their time to their communities up until they were physically unable,” Kulzer said.

For the last two years, he has served Ventura Land Trust (VLT) as a board member and on its stewardship committee.

Not only does he help focus on strategizing about the future of VLT, he also serves as a volunteer work leader.

“My vision for the Land Trust is to see the young and old flocking to the trails to mountain bike, hike and run. Getting more people out in nature invests people in the importance of and need to preserve wilderness,” Kulzer explained.

“Funding is typically the main challenge for all of these organizations, and by volunteering it greatly helps them stretch the funding dollars they receive and we then have sweat equity in the effort.”

M

egan Mescher-Cox, D.O., chose to become a physician with the intent of always evaluating and treating the “whole” patient; osteopathic medicine allowed her to

do that.

Endorsing wellness extends beyond her office hours at Dignity Health Medical Group. Earlier this year, Mescher-Cox was instrumental in establishing the local Walk with a Doc program, part of a national campaign to educate, exercise and empower.

She and other physicians lead members of the community on a walk and/or run every first Saturday of each month at 9 a.m. at the Ventura Pier boardwalk or the Pacific View Mall in Ventura during severe weather. Everybody is welcome: athletes, children, seniors, those who utilize mobility devices, etc.

“The most common question is ‘how do I do it?’ with limitations of time, money, too much stress, etc.,” she said. “The answer is different for each person and starting to understand that individual’s challenges allows us to focus on their unique solution.”

In fact, Mescher-Cox was recently Board Certified in Lifestyle Medicine, which she described as a true focus on health care, and the conversation with patients shifts to details on the foundations of health including diet, exercise, sleep, stress and their support system.

Stress is one of those foundations that the physician has observed as frequently overlooked.

“Unfortunately, when someone is under chronic stress, it is hard to even identify it as stress and it often feels to the person like ‘being stuck.’ When we are stuck, the idea of changing what we eat, increasing activity or other positive changes appears overwhelming and unless we address the underlying issue of stress, we won’t truly make headway on other areas of health,” she noted.

Her own work-related “burnout” is what led her to Lifestyle Medicine, and she is confident that adopting stress reduction behaviors as well as other healthier lifestyle choices improved her wellbeing.

“There are many challenges to get us moving more, incorporating more vegetables, decreasing our stress levels — and modifying our current habits is the biggest challenge. Habits account for 80 percent of what we do on a daily basis.”

Mescher-Cox advised that slowing down momentarily can be beneficial, and so is volunteering; it is an excellent way to contribute to the community while simultaneously having a positive impact on one’s wellbeing.

The physician also hosts bi-weekly community talks; the last one was for a walking group and bone-builders class at St. John’s Medical Center. The topic was “Adding Life to Years and Years to Life.”

olunteering enriches one’s life. Terri Hilliard Olson’s mother shared that tidbit with her; she believed it then and she has continuously experienced it since.

The attorney is president at her law firm, Law Offices of Terri Hilliard, PC, but she ensures that she offers her time and expertise to support a variety of efforts including Moorpark Morning Rotary and PAUSE4kids, a nonprofit that advocates and provides opportunities for special needs children and their families.

“I became involved when my client, the founder, Keri Bowers, asked that I serve to support the special needs community and the nonprofit’s mission since 2010. I host the speaker series,” Olson said.

Besides its quarterly expert speaker series (in which she is an active participant) the nonprofit provides: support and resources for parents and professionals in the community (scholarship or grant funding for programs or services for children with special needs), hosts a monthly Advocacy Group Meeting to assist parents in advocating for their child’s needs, and sponsors events and activities including Art-A-Thon, Abilities Awareness and others intended to educate the public about the needs of special needs children.

Olson also gives her legal expertise on the Legal Concerns Pro Bono Panel and manages the team of serving attorneys.

It is a program that she helped create while serving as a board member for Conejo Senior Concerns.

The organization was established over 40 years ago and provides legal, financial and advocate services, year-round Meals on Wheels, an adult day program for the frail and memory challenged, and caregiver support and education on healthy aging.

In 2018, it served 174,547 people with a total of 55,000 hours of care supporting two caregiver’s respite per family; Meals on Wheels provided 32,000 meals and served 32,000 families; Legal and Financial Pro Bono panels served 87 families.

Still, Olson has endeavored to further assist seniors.

An example is the Conejo Valley Village, which is a virtual community that flexibly provides supportive services and social activities so that each member may maximize their experience as comfortably as possible.

“It was inspired by power of community. A few hard working, involved community members visualized the power of helping one another with our unique talents and thriving and living in place,” she said.

or 20-25 hours each week, Kathy Powell gave tirelessly to those in need. Until recently, she was the chair of Unitarian Universalist Church of Ventura’s (UUCV) Lift Up Your Voice program, which focuses on a multitude of issues related to homelessness in Ventura County.

For example, it aims to offer annually one educational event; in 2018, it developed a documentary on homelessness in Hawaii, where the demographics and challenges are similar to Ventura.

This year, a Rainy Day Motel Fund was provided through a partnership with other churches that gathered and offered funding for shelter to those in need during the winter.

“People were so appreciative since the Shelter was in Oxnard and was full each night and it was so wet outside. They got a bed and a bathroom thanks to houses of faith working together through us,” said Powell. “I got to work with the shelter and a few social workers putting families in for a few days until they could meet the criteria they needed for assistance.”

Powell stated that while she does not dream up ideas, she is good at carrying them out.

One such well-executed concept is the Lift Up Your Voice Speaker’s Bureau, which was the brainchild of Judy Alexander and Kate Mills. With a grant from the McCune Foundation, Powell made certain that Lift Up Your Voice would live on. She gathered 20 people who then underwent training and have since continuously advocated throughout the city of Ventura.

She is driven to achieve more.

“Some of the things that are needed are funding to get people into rehabs, which normally run about $700 per month. Funding for that is scarce and desperately needed. We would be able to offer help with that if we had that funding, and sometimes it takes numerous tries to stick with someone so the flexibility needs to be there to assist,” Powell said.

Additionally, she explained that overlooking those who are homeless because of misconceptions about homelessness stagnates progress in effectively and efficiently addressing the issue.

Powell ran the kitchen at Harbor Church where her fellow volunteers were homeless. For two years, she served as vice chair and as secretary for one year for the Ventura Social Services Task Force, an organization that is devoted to ending homelessness in Ventura.

“We also give the Park Ambassadors bus passes so they can get people to places they need to go. Temple Beth Torah, Church of the Foothills and Bardsdale United Methodist congregations have adopted our team and bring donated clothes to my house.

We make sure anyone who needs them gets them and bring them once a month to Family to Family, the meal program,” she said.

Although Powell has recently had to direct her focus to her health since being diagnosed with cancer.

“They have all become my extended family, my heart surrounds all of my [homeless] friends who live outside. The Lift Up Your Voice crew is always ready as the army to go forward, so many people walking alongside each other using their skills as advocates and direct assistance skills to surround people in need. I have been blessed and inspired.”

selves — as women.

Signature: __________________________ This is the setting of Harvey Fierstein’s Tony-nom-

inated play, onstage at the Santa Paula Theater Center through July 28. Casa Valentina is based on an actual place in the Catskills called the Chevalier d’Eon (later named Casa Susanna), which catered to crossdressing heterosexual men. As Fierstein wrote, the resort was “paradise for these men — white-collar professionals with wives and children — to spend their weekends discreetly and safely inhabiting their chosen alter egos.”

Indeed, the characters call Casa Valentina their “Garden of Eden,” but as one points out, there is a “snake in the grass.” Their beloved “sorority” is under threat.

From what is a matter of opinion.

Onstage, as it was in real life, the hosts are a husband and wife team. Here it is the harried George, who transforms into the self-assured Valentina. His spouse is the almost-always-dutiful Rita. Chip Albers is good as George, but he is all the more commanding as Valentina.

Sindy McKay imbues Rita with as much love, courage and acceptance that an outsider in her own life can muster. Rita has a story, to be sure, but Casa Valentina is about what happens when a content secret sorority is rattled by the possibility of exposure.

The guests are mostly regulars, including the Oscar Wilde-quoting Bessie (the female alter ego of Albert), who offers much of the play’s comic relief. Allan Noel gives

life to Bessie’s humor and heartache. Doug Friedlander ably gives Terry (Theodore) the bittersweet gravitas she deserves. The confident Gloria (Michael) is played well

by Trent Trachtenberg. Ronald Rezac is well cast as Amy (Judge), who must face the repercussions of a years-long secret. Elixeo Flores fully inhabits Charlotte (Isadore), an outsider who comes with a challenging proposition and a thinly veiled threat. The other newcomer is Miranda (Jonathon), whose fragile innocence is brought to light

by Michael Adams. Miranda has more important things to learn than just the proper way to apply lipstick. Leslie Ann Vitanza makes a quick but compelling appearance as Amy’s daughter, Eleanor.

Director Fred Helsel helms the ambitious production.

Mike Carnahan creates a wonderful set, complete with multiple spaces and levels. Sound designers Helsel and Allan Noel fill the air with nostalgic music to set the right mood. Costumer Barbara Pedziwiatr does an especially good job dressing the men in clothes that celebrate their true selves. Lighting by Gary Richardson evokes the warmth of summer. The well-appointed set is the work of prop master Gail Heck. The fine crew is rounded out by producer Leslie Nichols and stage manager Megan Brister.

The welcomed levity in Casa Valentina comes in the way good friends enjoy each other’s company. At its heart, however, Casa Valentina is more serious than that, as it addresses intolerance, shame and the pain of secrets held and revealed. At its best, and when it is most effective, Casa Valentina puts aside the speeches and lets its characters lead from the heart. ✦ Casa Valentina through July 28 at the Santa Paula Theater Center, 125 S. Seventh St., Santa Paula. For more information, call 805-525-4645 or visit www.santapaulatheatercenter.org.

ing companies. So I have a relationship with Universal anyway. And Danny Bennett was running Verve when I signed the deal. And I liked him a lot. So I felt really at home being back with a Universal label. So that was sort of my thought process. Danny’s gone now, but I’m still excited about working with them and excited about recording in November.”

Lovett said he has not yet settled on the songs that will go on his next album. But he can say one thing with some certainty: There won’t be a unifying concept to the songs.

“The theme really is just my life experience,” Lovett said. “With just about every song I’ve recorded, I can point to something I’ve experienced, either gone through or something that I observed or happened that was real. And then writing about it is a great way to remember that, really, that experience. Writing about it, in a personal way, for me, it helps me to appreciate some of the things I’ve gotten to live through.”

On a musical level, Lovett said fans can expect the album to feature the kind of diversity that has characterized his previous albums — and the musical range of his live shows. That means the new songs could incorporate any number of styles, including country, soul, blues, bluegrass, rock or horn-accented swing and jazz.

And when recording sessions begin, Lovett will approach the new album with the same goal that’s behind which songs he chooses to perform at each concert and how the songs are arranged for live performance. He wants to showcase his band.

“By the end of the show, I’d like everyone in the audience to feel as though they’ve gotten to know everybody on stage,” he said. “The live arrangements come from that. It really is a matter of thinking of ways to expand a song or take a song in a direction that would allow someone in the band to be featured. So we might expand some of the solos and include instruments and solo sections that might not be on the recording. It’s a way to say ‘Hey, check this guy ✦ out because he’s really good.’ ” An Evening with Lyle Lovett and His Large Band takes place on Saturday, July 6, at 8 p.m. at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza, 2100 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd. For tickets and more information, call 805-449-2787 or visit www. civicartsplaza.com.

tjpompey@gmail.com Toy Story 4 Directed by: Josh Cooley Starring: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Annie Potts, Tony Hale Rated G 1 hr., 40 mins.

I

t’s hard to imagine a film series more beloved by adults and children than Toy Story. For almost 25 years, we’ve delighted in the adventures of cowboy Woody, astronaut Buzz Lightyear and their merry band of gizmo pranksters.

After Toy Story 3 was released in 2010, many thought the adventures were a wrap and that the fun would be in the memories the films would create for our children and grandchildren. Turns out we were wrong.

But Toy Story 4 is not a simple sequel. It is intended to broaden the story and focus on something we haven’t seen among our toy friends — romance. That’s right, there’s love in the air and this version intends to light it up.

The story picks up a few years prior to Toy Story 3, with Andy’s sister, Molly, giving away some of her toys. One of these is Bo Peep (Annie Potts). Woody (Tom Hanks) is enamored with Bo Peep and considers going with her, but she counsels him otherwise and he sadly watches her leave.

Fast-forward a few years and Woody and friends — following events in Toy Story 3 — are now owned by young Bonnie (Madeleine McGraw). As is true with all toys, they get used and eventually stowed away. Woody finds himself stuck in the closet as Bonnie chooses other toys to play with.

When Bonnie goes to kindergarten, Woody worries about how she will cope at her new school. He sneaks into her backpack to watch her. After a classmate discards Bonnie’s art tools, Woody secretly retrieves them from the trash.

Among the collection he brings is a “spork.”

Bonnie is intrigued with the plastic fork/spoon and turns the spork into a new toy named

It’s fortunate that the final director was Josh Cooley, whose previous Pixar work included Inside Out and Up. Despite a room full of writers and a highway full of plot threads, Cooley manages to keep the story on the rails and moving briskly. It’s not quite a full cast ensemble as in the past. This really is Woody’s story, with Forky adding an emotional tug as he learns the values of toyhood.

Can toys grow up? It seems so and with that fact come more complicated personalities.

Gabby wants her voice back so she doesn’t gather dust on the shelf. Buzz learns to trust his inner voice. Bo is an independent woman.

298 E.

Given my propensity for eating more than my stomach can handle, I chose the BBQ Jack ($16), The Vanna ($16) and, seduced by the name, the one known as Benny the Jet ($15).

Date:_______________________________

Wandering Pie on that day was the Santa Barbara-based vegan Mexican joint, Rascals SB, serving “al pastor” nachos (the al pastor made of textured vegetable protein) and gringas, which aren’t quesadillas but you could be fooled into thinking they were. I shared the nachos with the table and came away with a new found appreciation for “TVP” – the stuff really can taste like anything with enough work, even al pastor.

The pizzas arrived shortly thereafter. Like Vanna White herself, the pizzas were gorgeous, a spread of melted cheese, glistening toppings and baked goodness.

My first slice was the Vanna, of course. I noticed that the crust was firm but springy; the bottom had a light ring of char. It was airy and proved wonderfully chewy. After my many failed attempts of making pizza dough at home, I glowed in appreciation of the wonderfully flavorful crust.

The toppings almost played second fiddle to the crust, which goes without saying I am a big fan of.

Benny the Jet wasn’t too dissimilar from Vanna, but the oregano gave it a decent savory balance, working in tandem with the Miyoko’s mozzarella which is a little tart and a little salty.

The star of the show was the BBQ Jack, at least at our table. The marinated bits of the enormous jackfruit, cut down to bite-sized pieces and baked in the ceramic oven took on a crispy edge, sweet and tangy, pairing as well as any backdoor barbeque main course would with red onions and cilantro. The bright red barbecue sauce itself held a nice peppery quality to it that brought together everything it touched into one happy family. And of course, there’s the crust – the delicious vessel itself working wonders as the foundation.

I savored the pizza from The Wandering Pie. This, after all, would be my last food review for the VCReporter – I’m off to another land, where I’m unsure pizza will be as good. Over cocktails at VenTiki, I spoke with Jamie regarding what got him in to pizza making and learned that the man acquires parts for super colliders as his day job. Ventura County, have you ever had anything made by anyone associated with a device that can create black holes?

The county is well-served by The Wandering Pie, and so are its neighbors, as the mobile crew makes stops in Santa Barbara as well, and soon, Los Angeles. You can find the regular menu at most pop-ups, where meat reigns supreme, but there’s always at least one vegan item on the menu.

As far as I’m concerned, wander all you like, but The Wandering Pie is where to hang your hat for a great slice. ♦

ADVICE GODDESS

The Incredible Sulk

I’

m a married lesbian working on having another baby with my fab wife. My new best friend is an attractive straight girl who lives in another state. We talk and text every day. It isn’t sexual or romantic at all, but my friend gets me in a way that, I’m sorry to say, my wife does not.

My wife seems jealous. I’ve noticed her moping around when I’m on the phone and sometimes rolling her eyes when I’m laughing with my friend.

How can I reassure her without giving up my new friend?

— Concerned

by amy alkon Spouses can’t meet each other’s every need — and shouldn’t be expected to. Like, if you’re doubled over in pain, you don’t just hand your wife some dishwashing gloves and a knife and be all, “Kitchen-floor appendectomy, babe?”

Still, it makes sense that your wife is getting all green monster-y. Human emotions, including jealousy, are a tool chest for solving the mating and survival problems that have kept popping up throughout human history.

Jealousy is a guard-dog emotion, rising up automatically when we sense that our partnership might be threatened — like by an attractive rival moving in on our boo. Research by evolutionary psychologist David Buss finds that our jealousy, in turn, triggers mate-retention behaviors, such as going around all hangdog mopeypants to try to guilt our partner into spending less time with their sparkly new friend.

Now, it seems like you could just reason with your wife: “Come on … my friend’s fiercely hetero, she lives in another state, and I’m having another baby with you.” However, though we each have the ability to reason, reasoning takes effort, while emotion comes up automatically, without mental elbow grease.

So it turns out that emotion does a lot of our decision-making, and then we dress it up as reason after the fact (maybe like a little Socrates action figure).

Your best bet is be extra loving to your wife — basically to lovey-dovey her off the ledge. Psychologist Brooke C. Feeney’s research on the “dependency paradox” finds that the more an insecure partner feels they can count on their partner for love and comforting the less fearful and clingy they tend to be.

In other words, you should con-

Mourning Wood My male neighbor was married to a wonderful woman for 15 years.

She died, and he was grieving heavily for several months, telling my husband and me she was the love of his life and he didn’t “know how to do life” without her, etc. Well, six months later, he was dating, and in less than a year, he’s engaged to somebody new! I’m beginning to wonder if all his “I’m so grief-stricken” was just for show.

—Irate The way you see it, he went through some Stages of Grief: 1) Wow, this is terrible and life-shattering. 2) Boobs!

However, it isn’t surprising that you’re “irate” at what you perceive to be a suspiciously speedy recovery. Evolutionary psychologist Bo Winegard and his colleagues believe grief evolved to be, among other things, a form of advertising. “Prolonged and costly” grief signals a person’s “propensity” to develop deep emotional attachments to others. This, in turn, suggests they can be trusted as a friend, colleague, or romantic partner.

The reality is, there are individual differences in how people respond to loss that don’t always square with widely held beliefs about how grief

If somebody had a wonderful relationship, they may feel an acute void and long to hav the wonderfulness back. sistently go a little overboard in showing affection, like by sending your wife frequent random texts (“in supermarket & thinking about how much i love u”), caressing her face, doing little sweet things. Basically, stop just short of boring her to death with how much you love her. This, in turn, should make her more likely to yawn about your friendship than go all junior prosecutor: “Did you just shave your legs for that phone call?!”

is “supposed” to work. These beliefs, explains grief researcher George Bonanno, “tend to create rigid parameters for ‘proper’ behavior that do not match what most people go through.” They end up fostering doubt and suspicion about what’s actually successful coping. “When we cast suspicion on a bereaved person just because we think she coped with death too well or got on with her life too quickly, we only make her loss more difficult to bear.”

Understanding this, maybe you can try to be happy for the guy and support him in his new relationship.

Don’t assume that his finding new love means he’s forgotten his late wife or no longer misses her. Consider, as Bonanno observes, that if somebody had a wonderful relationship, they may feel an acute void and long to have the wonderfulness back. And to be fair, there was some passage of time here. It’s not like the guy was all up in his phone at the funeral, drying his tears in between swiping right on Tinder. (c)2019, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved. Got a problem?

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

When the universe began 13.8 billion years ago, there were only four elements: mostly hydrogen and helium, plus tiny amounts of lithium and beryllium. Now there are 118 elements, including five that are key components of your body: oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. All of those were created by nuclear reactions blazing on the insides of stars that later died. So it’s literally true to say that much of your flesh and blood and bones and nerves originated at the hearts of stars. I invite you to meditate on that amazing fact. It’s a favorable time to muse on your origins and your ancestry; to ruminate about all the events that led to you being here today — including more recent decades, as well as the past 13.8 billion years.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

Most American women couldn’t vote until a hundred years ago. Women in Japan, France, and Italy couldn’t vote until the 1940s. Universal suffrage has been a fundamental change in how society is structured. Similarly, same-sex marriage was opposed by vast majorities in most countries until 15 years ago, but has since become widely accepted. African American slavery lasted for hundreds of years before being delegitimized all over the Western world in the 19th century. Brazil, which hosted forty percent of all kidnapped Africans, didn’t free its slaves until 1888. What would be the equivalent of such revolutionary transformations in your own personal life? According to my reading of the astrological omens, you have the power to make that happen during the next twelve months.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

Gemini musician Paul Weller is famous in the UK, though not so much elsewhere. According to the

24 —

— July 3, 2019

by rob brezsny

BBC, he is one of Britain’s “most revered music writers and performers.” To which I say: revered, maybe, but mentally healthy? Not so much. He bragged that he broke up his marriage with his wife Dee C. Lee because “things were going too well, we were too happy, too comfortable, everything seemed too nice.” He was afraid that “as a writer and an artist I might lose my edge.” Don’t you dare allow yourself to get infected with that perverse way of thinking, my dear Gemini. Please capitalize on your current comfort and happiness. Use them to build your strength and resilience for the months and years to come.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

Cancerian voice actor Tom Kenny has played the roles of over 1,500 cartoon characters, including SpongeBob SquarePants, Spyro the Dragon, Jake Spidermonkey, Commander Peepers, and Doctor Octopus. I propose that we make him your role model in the coming weeks. It will be a favorable time for you to show your versatility; to demonstrate how multifaceted you can be; to express various sides of your soulful personality.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Leo author Donald Miller reminds us that fear can have two very different purposes. On the one hand, it may be “a guide to keep us safe,” alerting us to situations that could be dangerous or abusive. On the other hand, fear may work as “a manipulative emotion that can trick us into living a boring life.” After studying your astrological indicators for the coming weeks, Leo, I have come to the conclusion that fear may serve both of those functions for you. Your challenge will be to discern between them; to know which situations are genuinely risky and which situations are daunting but promising. Here’s

a hint that might help: trust your gut feelings more than your swirling fantasies.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Why do flocks of geese fly in a V-formation?

Because to do so enhances the collective efficiency of their travel. Each bird generates a current that supports the bird behind it. Let’s make this phenomenon one of your power metaphors for the coming weeks. What would be the equivalent strategy for you and your tribe or group as you seek to make your collaborative efforts more dynamic and productive?

Unforeseen help will augment any actions you take in this regard.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

“A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue,” mused Libra author Truman Capote. “That’s why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet.” That cynical formulation has more than a few grains of truth in it, I must admit. But I’m pleased to tell you that I suspect your experience in the coming weeks will be an exception to Capote’s rule. I think you have the potential to embark on a virtual binge of rich discussion and intriguing interplay with people who stimulate and educate and entertain you. Rise to the challenge!

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

In accordance with astrological rhythms, you are authorized to make the following declarations in the next two weeks: 1. “I refuse to participate further in this situation on the grounds that it might impinge on the expansiveness of my imagination.” 2. “I abstain from dealing with your skepticism on the grounds that doing so might discourage the flights of my imagination.” 3. “I reject these ideas, theories, and beliefs on the grounds that they might pinch, squash,

or deflate my imagination.” What I’m trying to tell you, Scorpio, is that it’s crucial for you to emancipate your imagination and authorize it to play uninhibitedly in the frontiers of possibilities.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Dear Sagittarius: I invite you to make a copy of the testimonial below and give it to anyone who is in a position to support your Noble Experiment. “To Whom It May Concern: I endorse this Soulful Sagittarius for the roles of monster-tamer, fun-locator, boredom-transcender, elation-inciter, and mountaintop visionary. This adroit explorer is endowed with charming zeal, disarming candor, and abundant generosity. If you need help in sparking your enthusiasm or galvanizing your drive to see the big picture, call on the expansive skills of this jaunty puzzle-solver.”

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Life will conspire to bring you a surge of love in the coming weeks — if you can handle it. Can you? Will you be able to deal adeptly with rumbling love and icy hot love and mostly sweet but also a bit sour love? Do you possess the resourcefulness and curiosity necessary to have fun with funny spiritual love and running-through-the-labyrinth love and unexpectedly catalytic love? Are you open-minded and open-hearted enough to make the most of brilliant shadowy love and unruly sensitive love and toughly graceful love?

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

I don’t endlessly champion the “no pain, no gain” theory of personal growth. My philosophy holds that we are at least as likely to learn valuable lessons from pleasurable and joyful experiences as we are from difficult and taxing struggles. Having said that, I also think it’s true that our suffering may lead us to

treasure if we know how to work with it. According to my assessment, the coming weeks will bring one such opening for you. To help you cultivate the proper spirit, keep in mind the teaching of Aquarian theologian and author Henri Nouwen. He said that life’s gifts may be “hidden in the places that hurt most.”

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

The Japanese word “wabi-sabi” refers to an interesting or evocative imperfection in a work of art that makes it more beautiful than if it were merely perfect. “Duende” is a Spanish word referring to a work of art that gives its viewers the chills because it’s so emotionally rich and unpredictably soulful.

In the coming weeks, I think that you yourself will be a work of art with an abundance of these qualities. Your wabi-sabi will give you the power to free yourself from the oppressive pressures of seeking too much precision and purity. Your duende can give you the courage you need to go further than you’ve ever dared in your quest for the love you really want.

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.

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

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

Jill O., Oxnard

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

Jamie L., Canyon Country

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

Jon M., Westlake Village

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

Gavin F., Ventura

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

“Our 30-year old son has conquered his 12 year addiction to alcohol! Tribe is a strong program with a lot of love, medicine and intense immersion in advanced techniques.” L. B., Malibu

“After attending multiple rehabs, Tribe is the place that worked for me. I’m currently 518 days sober. Nancy helped my family understand the disease process in depth, and she reconnected me with my sister and my parents.

Today I have genuine relationships with my immediate family, something I could never have imagined prior to Tribe.” Kathryn H, Carpinteria

“My son thrived during his stay at Tribe. The atmosphere, meetings, healthy living and activities provided the conditions necessary for a healthy recovery.”

J.T., Mission Viejo

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

Debbie D., Ventura

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

Jason J., Ventura

“Thanks so much TRIBE for helping us get our wonderful son back to sanity!”

Liz B., Malibu

“Tribe has one of the most innovative approaches to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.”

Elizabeth K., Santa Cruz

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

Jen M., Manhattan Beach

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

Trudie T., Ojai

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

Melissa S., Arroyo Grande

“The 3-day workshop with clients and their families is a life changing event.”

Roberta S., Ventura
