CTOBER ACTION—Autumn in Malibu may mean that beachgoers bring sweaters to the shore, but there are still plenty of hardy
souls out to catch some rays at Leo Carrillo State Beach, one of the most beautiful and popular venues in the community. There
are occasional surprises as well, such as the elephant being filmed there recently. Its trainers made sure that photographers
found it difficult to capture a crisp image. The News received a number of cell phone shots to prove it was there. MSN/Frank Lamonea

Marketing of Lumber
Yard Redo Underway
■
■
City Has Not Completed Lease
Negotiations with the Developer
D
espite still being in negotiations with the City of
Malibu for a master lease,
Richard Weintraub and his partner Richard Sperber have begun
marketing the old Malibu
Lumber yard for lease, according
to their real estate brochure.
The leasing amount of $15 per
square foot per month plus triple
net has even some industry insiders raising their eyebrows. For
the most part, rents at the Malibu
Country Mart reportedly run
about $10 to $11 per square foot
plus triple net and at Malibu
Colony Plaza the latest lease
amounts are reported to run about
$8 to $9 per square foot plus
triple net.
Last month, the city council
directed municipal negotiators to
begin work on a master lease
agreement. The city manager told
council members it is anticipated
the master lease agreement
would be ready for the council’s
consideration in about six
months. The prospective partners
have tentatively agreed to pay
$925,000 per year in rent, winning plaudits from city officials.
The lease listing is with CB
Richard Ellis and leasing at the
old lumber yard site is being touted as an “extremely rare opportunity to lease space in the heart of
Malibu, adjacent to Malibu
Country Mart, surrounded by
premier retailers such as Planet
Blue, James Perse, Madison,
Ralph Lauren, Ron Herman,
Chrome Hearts, Lisa Kline, future Juicy Couture, O’ccitane,
Henry Begulin and other retailers
serving locals and premier retail
customers.”
The delivery date is advertised
as December 2007, with a grand
opening in spring 2008. The old
building is described as containing 23,000-square-feet of ground
floor retail and restaurant space
available with a second level of
about 8,000 square feet.
Schematics show a lower level
divided into nine leasable retail
spaces for a total of about 13,096
square feet, with a center courtyard of nearly 4,000 square feet
PROPOSED LAYOUT FOR INDIVIDUAL STORES AND PARKING AT LUMBERYARD SITE
and a garden center fronting the
building entrance.
The second level or mezzanine
would consist of two decks, with
three separate leasable commercial areas of about a total of
6,670 square feet, with some of
the area open to the courtyard
below.
According to local business
observers, the lease amounts
would preclude most locals or
mom and pop retailers from
throwing their hat into the ring,
unless the Weintraub Sperber
Group or the city agree to a sepa-
rate tier of rates.
Municipal negotiators were instructed by the council to include
language in any master lease that
the property could not be flipped,
or resold, without the consent of
the city council.

Yamaguchi Site Deemed SMMC Officials Take Challenge in Stride
■ Law Firm Seeks Investigation of Their Use of Funding
‘Unsuitable’ for Possible

■
Trustees Terminate Escrow on
Seven Acres in Civic Center Area
Malibu city officials announced this week that the college district trustees have terminated escrow on the Civic Center
property owned by the Yamaguchi Tokiye Trust.
The property was previously
identified as a potential site for
the Santa Monica College Malibu
satellite campus, but was determined to be “unsuitable” for the
project. City Manager Jim Thorsen said he did not know what the
specifics were for rejection.
There was no official SMC statement on the reasons for the
trustees action on Monday night.
“Several alternative sites have
been identified,” said SMC President Dr. Chui Tsang, in the press
release issued by City Hall. “And
both the college board and city
officials are optimistic that a suitable location in the Civic Center
will be found for the Malibu
campus.” Tsang was not available
for comment on Tuesday when
The News goes to press.
In August, city and college
officials had announced the start
of escrow on the nearly sevenacre parcel adjacent to Malibu
City Hall for $8 million.
Since then, extensive trenching
was done on the property, a former nursery sometimes known as
the “rain forest.” Thorsen said it
is probable the rejection of the
site was based on test results.
When voters approved Measure S in November 2004, it contained language allowing the city
and SMC to partner in the planning of a satellite campus by
forming a joint powers authority.
The measure allocated $25 million of the bond proceeds to be
spent within Malibu.
A letter has been sent to the
California Attorney General’s
office and the state Department
of Finance asking that the two
agencies investigate allegations
that the Santa Monica Mountains
Conservancy acted improperly
when it spent Proposition 50
bond funds.
A Conservancy official said the
attorney general’s office has
already presented an opinion on
the matter. “They found it to be
perfectly legitimate,” said Rorie
Skei, who is the chief deputy director of SMMC.
The crux of the letter, penned
by the law firm Stradling, Yocca,
Carlson & Rauth “on behalf of
certain concerned taxpayers,” is
that the SMMC awarded funds to
its joint powers agency, called the
Mountains Recreation Conservation Authority, that were either allegedly misspent because they
were not used for the stated pur-
poses or that it was improper for
SMMC to be giving money to
MRCA because “[SMMC] is the
de facto operator of the MRCA.”
Skei said both assertions are incorrect. “The SMMC and MRCA
are joint powers. It is an incorrect
conclusion,” she added.
The SMMC is essentially, according to the law firm, making
grants of Prop 50 monies to itself.
“As previously noted by the De(Continued on page 15)
View Preservation Pilot Goes Back for Revamp
A proposed view preservation
ordinance, designed as a pilot program for Malibu Country Estates,
was described during public comments as “lacking teeth,” too narrowly focused on one neighborhood and without uniform standards for determining view blockage, when the City of Malibu
Planning Commission considered
the measure last week.
Planning and building department head Vic Peterson acknowledged the implementation of the
proposed law would be private litigation and said the measure was
designed in an effort to protect
what the city calls primary views,
saying municipal officials believe
anything else is unworkable.
Commissioners decided, after
hearing testimony from not only
MCE residents, but also from
homeowners in Big Rock and
Point Dume, to refer the matter
back to the staff.
“The city of Malibu must become proactive and not leave it to
the aggrieved party to appeal to
the court where unfortunately
those with the deepest pockets
will usually prevail,” said MCE
resident Marilynn Santman, who
told commissioners she was dissatisfied with the proposal put
forth by the staff.
Longtime Malibu resident Leon
Cooper agreed and said the proposed law was completely inappropriate for Malibu. “The burden
is placed on the person most adversely affected. There is no teeth
for a remedy,” he said.
Point Dume resident Sam Hall
Kaplan said that an ordinance was
needed for all of Malibu, not just
Malibu Country Estates. He also
said any proposed law needs the
backing of the city.
“For this ordinance to go beyond pap to be a palliative, it
needs a city willing to stand in
court if necessary with residents

County Officials Say Threat of DNA Policing Is Unfounded
■ Cracking Down on Bad Septics Doesn’t Require User IDs Despite Spate of News Reports to the Contrary
L
os Angeles County officials,
anxious to avoid $10,000 a
day fines for allowing their
storm drains to pollute the Pacific
Ocean, have approved a $1 million effort to track down what is
polluting the creeks that drain
through Malibu. But plans to use
DNA testing to look for human
contamination have fueled
breathless, but erroneous, news
media reports saying DNA would
be traced into individual movie
stars’ Malibu toilets.
News outlets around the world
picked up an Associated Press
article Thursday that implied that
the individual DNA of Malibu
celebrities (and presumably other
less well-known residents) could
be gathered by court order, and
checked against human DNA that
might be found traveling down
creeks and into the ocean.
“Let me make something
clear,” said Supervisor Zev Yaroslavksy, at a hastily-called damage-control news conference overlooking the Malibu coast. “We
are not any way in the world
going to be identifying individual
DNA by doing these tests.”
Yaroslavksy and county health
and public works officials emphasized the human DNA tests would
be added to existing tests to see if
chronic pollution at the mouths of
several creeks originates in human waste percolating out of the
city’s septic tanks.
“This is not a Malibu problem,”
Yaroslavksy said to TV cameras
at a news conference at the Santa
Monica Pier. “This is a very rural
area, and we have to identify what
the source is of the material coming down the creeks, a lot of it
coming down the creeks from
above Malibu.”
The supervisor said he got a
chuckle out of the wire story that
intimated Malibu residents would
be asked to surrender DNA swabs
to match against ocean water
samples. “The DNA testing aspect is very sexy, and got everybody excited,” he said.
The Board of Supervisors last
week approved a $1 million effort
to find the biological source of
viruses and bacteria that plague a
few sections of the city’s 27 miles
of beaches. Although human
waste is an obvious target, scientists have said that hotspots near
creeks and lagoons may be picking up bird droppings or other
contamination from dirty sand.
County health department officials already use tests for caffeine
and other chemicals that can only
be excreted by humans into the
environment. If such indicators
warrant it, expensive DNA tests
can now be used to confirm if
human waste caused the problem,
but not to identify specific individuals who may have poorly-

Longtime residents say the
problem may be the year-round
nature of the creeks, which are frequently fed by tainted, fertilizerladen urban runoff. In years past,
most Santa Monica Mountain
drainages dried up in the summer.
At the news conference,
Malibu was singled out for praise
by Heal the Bay founder Mark
Gold. “If you asked me this five
years ago, I would have had a different answer,” Gold said. Since
then, he added, “Malibu has
adopted the strongest onsite
wastewater treatment ordinance
in L.A. County by a mile.”
Malibu City Councilmember
Jeff Jennings, who rushed to the
news conference when tipped off
about it by a reporter, told the
media that the community has a
strong interest in getting to the
bottom of the local pollution.
Yaroslavksy agreed, and lauded
the city and its residents: “Maybe
the pollution is coming down the
creek from a mountain lion’s den.
Maybe it’s coming from birds, or
from dog droppings. We don’t
know, but we are going to find
out. And if it is coming from a
home, they can expect to be visited by us,” he said.

Second School Bus to Alleviate Overcrowding Is Still on Hold
■ Some Parents Criticize District’s Handling of Situation
Overcrowded conditions on the
school bus bringing children from
Topanga Canyon and Sunset
Mesa to west Malibu may get
some relief this week, while the
district seeks to hire another bus
driver to alleviate the uncomfortable and unsafe ride.
But some parents are furious
that the district has sent them a
threatening letter that promises to
banish students from district
buses, if parents continue to drop
kids off at alternate, less crowded
bus stops so they can have seats.
“I find it very obnoxious that
the first communication that any
of us have gotten from the district
in any form on this matter was
this threat to these kids that their
bus privileges would be revoked,”
said Pat Moore, addressing the
Santa Monica Malibu Unified
School Board Thursday.
As many as 85 children cram
into the one bus that travels from
Sunset Mesa and Topanga Beach
to Malibu every morning, most
sitting three to each seat and
blocking aisles with their bodies
and backpacks. The afternoon bus
is less crowded because a second
bus takes after-school sports and
club participants on the same
route later in the day.
Students on board the bus said it
was stopped by a California Highway Patrol cruiser in front of
Malibu High School, and boarded
by officers. “The bus was unsafe
because the aisle was blocked, and
it was blocked with kids’ knees,
kids’ backpacks, and it wasn’t legal,” said district Superintendent
Dianne Talarico.
The new superintendent, who
has ridden the crammed bus, said
she had recommended adding a
second bus to the route before the
CHP warning was issued. District
officials have told angry parents
the new driver must pass criminal,
driving and licensing checks
before the relief bus can be added.
In the meantime, about 10 Topanga Canyon riders will get seats
on the bus that travels daily from
east Santa Monica to Malibu High.
District officials said parents
cannot allow their children to
board the bus at a different stop
because of state laws. Some
Topanga parents have been driving their youngsters to Sunset
Mesa, where they stand a better
chance of getting a seat.
At the board meeting, parent
Justin Clarenbeck said district
transportation officials have offered “nothing but denials that
there is a problem” on the bus.
Clarenbeck said that one bus
supervisor tried to prevent parents from handing out leaflets to
students to give to their parents.
“He yelled at the kids and told us
we had no right to talk to them,”
he added.
That supervisor also tried to prevent a reporter from the Malibu
Surfside News from taking pictures of the overcrowded bus, and
from interviewing students loading onto it.
State law prohibits school officials from restricting reporters, and
prohibits school officials from preventing school children from expressing First Amendment rights,
including being interviewed or
photographed.

Agency Says Cabrillo Port Endangers Whales
Federal wildlife officials have
thrown up a possible roadblock to
the Cabrillo Port LNG terminal
near Malibu, and said data indicates the natural gas combustion
ovens proposed for the ship
would be loud enough to damage
whales’ hearing more than a doz-
en miles away from the ship.
In a letter released late Tuesday,
the National Marine Fisheries
Services said the controversial energy terminal requested by Australian energy conglomerate BHP
Billiton will have an unknown impact on whales, sea otters, sea tur-
tles and endangered fish. Federal
fisheries experts say their requests
for additional information from
BHPB, some of them three years
old, have yet to be answered.

Editor:
Reading Mr. Rimple’s letter regarding the motorcycle
crash on Latigo Canyon Road the other week, I couldn’t
help but think of the tattered cartoon that has graced my
garage wall for over a decade. It reads “Take responsibility
for my own life?...Is that legal?”
But maybe he’s on to something. Perhaps warning signs
at the “dead man’s curve” wouldn’t be a bad idea, except
that this would leave some 208 other curves along Latigo
that aren’t signed.
Besides, since many motorcyclists don’t pay attention to
the signs already posted, including the speed limit, warning
signs alone wouldn’t do much good. Maybe if combined
with a stop sign....uh, no, they don’t necessarily slow
down much for those, come to think of it.
Flying-human-friendly fencing along the entire canyon
road could perceivably do the trick, but would probably be
prohibitively expensive.
Alright, a stoplight at each potentially hazardous turn
should do it, assuming that for some reason those otherwise mostly un-law-abiding motorcyclists would adhere to
the law pertaining to it showing red.
Oh, the heck with it—as one of the best t-shirts I’ve ever
seen proclaimed, “The gene pool could use some chlorine.,” I’ll just keep driving really defensively and continue
my hope that the innocent are spared.

SELF-INTEREST
Editor:
I’d like to send the following letter to the traffic safety
manager of Malibu, if there is one.
“Greetings, I wish to apply to close a lane of Pacific
Coast Highway periodically, several days a year, including
some weekends, to accommodate two or three hundred cars
which I failed to mention when developing my property.
“I know it will be a hassle to the normal users of the
highway, adding 20 minutes or more to their travel over the
hump between Pepperdine and the fish market, but it’s for a
good cause—cause I need the money.
“Now I know there are acres of parking nearby—at Pepperdine, the Bluffs Park, City Hall, the courthouse, Ralphs’
Market, the local churches (which all seem, foolishly, to
have adequate off-street parking of their own), and, of
course, our beloved Chili-Cookoff site...From any of these,
I could bus people up to my property, but I would have to
pay for that, and it’s such a hassle!
“I admit I overbuilt the site, but you let me. Acquiring
additional acreage for just 20 days a year seems like such a
waste, given the $2,000,000 an acre price level you set for
the swamp land of the aforementioned Chili-Cookoff site.
Say, are any hardware stores or other useful ventures coming out of that? I have enough over-priced clothing and
jewelry already.
“By the way, how are those “girls” doing, still comfy? I
hear that you plan to hire one on at a premium rate and
that the other went over to Beverly Hills...Maybe I could
use one of those ladies to squeeze this project through. An
applicant can never have too many friends with powerful
friends.
“As for those commuters and Malibu residents who are
delayed and inconvenienced by the closures—they are not
my constituents...Oh, sorry about the Fire Engines and
Ambulances. But the delay is only a few extra minutes if
they speed down the wrong side of the highway. As you
know, every minute counts when someone is dying.
“Let me know if you need anything by way of campaign
contributions, phone support or word-of-mouth. You wash
my back; I’ll wash yours.
“Sincerely, and only a little facetiously,”

Cabrillo Port
Has Got to Go!
Publisher’s NOTEBOOK
‘Driving Out LNG’
N
ow that it appears all too obvious after this
week that most of the mainstream media are
more interested in Malibu celebrities’ elimination habits than their views on public policy issues, it’s time to get the community’s rank
and file citizenry in action to show the extent of the
local opposition to BHP Billiton’s Cabrillo Port
floating terminal project. What’s even better, local
opponents can join ranks with liquefied natural gas
facility critics from Washington State to Tijuana,
Mexico, in a show of force that has the potential to
outshine the most slickly-packaged celebrity PR
event. Saturday, October 14, is a West Coast “Day
of Action” when communities located close to proposed new LNG projects and proponents of clean
energy alternatives all along the coast will hold
simultaneous demonstrations calling for the rejection of the LNG plants, including Cabrillo Port,
that are now on the drawing board.
he local “Day of Action” is a joint Malibu/Oxnard event, an opportunity for the two
communities to stand together in support of
clean energy and in opposition to a coastwide, long-term investment in polluting fossil fuels
that would be detrimental to the health and safety
of the residents of these areas, as well as visitors to
them, and the health and safety of the ocean and all
of its inhabitants. Massed in strong numbers, it will
be difficult to ignore voices making the case that
LNG terminals will exacerbate the greenhouse gas
crisis. The emissions from the Cabrillo Port project
have been roughly estimated to create about 25
million tons of greenhouse gases per year, or about
the same as 4.3 million cars (taking into account
the full life-cycle emissions of LNG) .
T
W
ith its foot in the energy door, LNG will displace clean energy efforts by flooding the
market with fossil fuels, which utilities will
have committed to with contracts of 10
years or longer, creating even greater dependency.
The Malibu “Day of Action” contingent plans a carpool cavalcade of decorated cars that are expected to
meet Saturday at 9 a.m. in the Civic Center parking
lot before heading north to Oxnard Park for food and
festivities. For more information about the event, call
310-456-8434. This is a chance to show the media
that there’s another Malibu—the real Malibu—and
the people who live here care about the planet.

Documentary Examines Lakota ‘Spirit Rides’
■10-Year Project Shows Restored Culture and Pride Among Native Americans
I
n his film, “Spirit
Riders: Riding to
Mend the Sacred
Hoop,” writer, producer
and director James Kleinert documents the ceremonial rides of the Lakota
people, and their mission,
through these rides, to
spread a message of peace
and unity to the world.
Narrated by actor Peter
Coyote and Floyd Red
Crow Westerman, it also
demonstrates how these
rides have brought about a
resurgence in pride of heritage to the Lakota youth.
The film, which won
several awards in 2005
including the Best Film of
the Year at the Windsong
Film Festival and the Best
Documentary Feature film
Judges Award at the Zion
Independent Film Festival,
was shown last weekend
at the Malibu Celebration
of Film.
A visually beautiful
film, with intermittent shots
of wild horses galloping
across the plains and eagles
soaring, “Spirit Riders”
introduces the audience to
the Lakota Indian Tribe and
documents how their ceremonies and traditions have
reemerged in their culture.
Kleinert is so passionate
about this subject that he
has produced the Spirit
Riders Series of three
films: “Spirit Riders,” “Peta
Yuhi Mani—He Who
Keeps the Fire—the Viggo
Mortenson Interview,” and
“Ride to Little Big Horn.”
"The rides focus on the
youth," Kleinert said. “The
Lakota youth have many
challenges in life and these
rides introduce them to the
horse culture and provide a
challenging activity. The
rides are drug and alcoholfree so it puts them in a
good environment.”
The rides began in the
winter of 1990, when several Lakotas made the journey
acrooss South Dakota from
the site of Chief Big Foot’s
grave in McLaughlin, to
Wounded Knee. Called the
“Mending of the Sacred
Hoop Rides” or “Big Foot
Peace Rides,” they cover
more than 250 miles. They
begin in mid-December and
end on December 29, the
anniversary of the infamous

hands of the Seventh U.S. who made his first Big Foot
Peace Ride in 1998. The
Cavalry.
Upon arriving at the site, most arduous of the jourthe riders perform the “Wip- neys, this ride has had paring of the Tears” ceremony, ticipants as young as seven,
the purpose of which is to completing the 17-day ride
“release the feelings of grief, across South Dakota in the
dead of winter.
Out of these journeys,
came the annual “Peace
and Unity Rides,” beginning in the summer of
1996, when they traveled
from Saskatchewan, Canada to Gray Horn Butte, a
sacred Lakota site in
Wyoming. Each year the
riders journey to a different sacred site, ending on
June 21, the longest day of
the year when a ceremony
is held. A sacred day to
the Lakotas, the summer
solstice is “a day when the
heavens open up and spiritual energies flow through
an open door,” says Coyote in the film. The Lakotas have named this day
“World Peace and Honoring of Sacred Sites Day.”
The rides are open to
all, regardless of race or
ethnicity, attracting many
non-Native Americans
including actor Viggo
Mortenson who speaks of
their impact on him in the
film. Since their inception,
the message of these
rides—peace, unity and
sustainability—has spread
across the world and on
the summer solstice, the
Lakota have traveled to
Costa Rica, Ireland, South
Africa and Japan to share
the message of peace to
everyone.
“Spirit Riders is an
international peace and
unity movement that involves all people and all
races, they are not all of
Indian culture.” Kleinert
says.” They are attracted
to the rides because of the
message of unity and sustainability that we are
bringing to the world at
this time.”
Kleinert moved to Los
Angeles in 1994, acting
and performing stunt
work in films, and
received
his Screen
Actors Guild card in
1995. His career was cut
short in 1996 after a stunt-
related injury.
He returned to his home
in Wisconsin for a long convalescence, where he had an
“inner listening,” which he
explains, “we all have
things we connect with, and
mine was clearly coming
from my American Indian
roots.”
Through a friend he
was introduced to someone involved with American Indian spirituality.
She advised him to attend
an inipi, a sweat lodge
ceremony, which he says
was “without a doubt one
of the most powerful
experiences of my life.”
As he became more
involved with the Lakotas
walking the “Red Road,”
the Lakota term for the
path of spirituality—he
started filming the rides
and documenting the
Lakota culture, a 10-year
process that culminated in
“Spirit Riders”.
“The film just happened organically,” says
Kleinert. “As I was experiencing and living this, it
was very profound and I
started documenting what
I was experiencing. I began doing interviews with
the elders and, of course,
there were the rides.”
Kleinert, who is of
Seneca descent, explains
how, in order to assimilate
into American culture,
many native Americans
denied their heritage.

Judge in School Board Candidates Explore Wide Gamut of Issues
Ferrari
Trial to Be

The alleged driver of the
million-dollar-plus Enzo
Ferrari that crashed on
Pacific Coast Highway in
February may have more
than the usual misgivings
associated with Friday the
Thirteenth.
That’s the day Stefan
Eriksson learns who will
be the judge in his trial on
six felony counts of fraud
and embezzlement and two
driving-under-the-influence charges related to the
spectacular car crash. If
convicted, he faces up to

native country, has been

than $3 million bail, coupled with a hold by the
U.S. Immigration and Nat(Continued on page 15)
The five candidates vying
for four open positions on
the Santa Monica-Malibu
Unified School District
Board of Education were
introduced Wednesday, Oct.
4, during a forum at Roosevelt Elementary School.
The event was co-sponsored by the Franklin and
Roosevelt elementary
schools PTA and the
League of Women Voters.
Each of the five candidates—Shane McLoud,
Kelly Pye, Emily Bloomfield, Barry Snell and Oscar
de la Torre—fielded questions from moderator Barbara Inatsugu that were submitted by the audience.
McLoud, de la Torre and
Bloomfield are incumbents
seeking reelection, while
Pye and Snell are newcomers to board politics hoping
to gain a seat.
In a break with tradition,
first up were students from
Franklin, Roosevelt and
Lincoln Middle School who
presented their concerns to
the candidates.
One student queried the
panel on whether class size
reduction was a priority.
Bloomfield noted that class
size reduction requires a
substantial increase in funding, stating that “there are
many trade offs the board
has to consider.”
Another student asked
why the district did not
employ a full-time grant
writer.
Current board member de
la Torre replied that, once
again, if the district had the
money, the position would
be filled. He noted that
while former district superintendent John Deasy had
brought in approximately
$2 million in grant monies,
he felt the most critical
funding sources for the district are the parcel tax, the
ongoing financial agreements with the City of
Santa Monica and the City
of Malibu and the upcoming bond, Measure BB.
After the student inquiries, one questioner from
the audience asked what
changes each candidate
would like to see in district
leadership. (Newly hired
SMMUSD Dianne Talarico
started her three-year tenure
this fall).
McLoud stated that he
“believed in the power of
leadership and that it starts
at the top,” adding, “I would
like to see equity across the
district.”
Pye answered that she
would like to “build community around new leaders
and I would like to be part
of that dialogue. The focus
should be on challenging
every child at every ability
level.”
“I would likeee
to see equity
across the
”
district.
Snell said that ”change is
good, it brings in new ideas.
But children must come
first and parents need to be
involved.”
Bloomfield noted that
there needed to “be continuity through change that
brings results with improved
[student] performance.”
A question regarding continued funding of the arts
programs was directed to
Pye, who replied that “I feel
strongly about enhancing
arts and music and I hope to
bring [corporate] partners
on board.”
Candidates were pressed
on how they felt about the
passage of Measure BB, the
bond on the Nov. 7 ballot
that would saddle property
owners with an additional
$31 per $100,000 of
assessed value to raise
money for capitol improvements on all campuses
throughout the district.
Bloomfield stated, “We
[board members] know that
voters are concerned about
children’s safety and the
need for technological improvements. My advice is
that if Measure BB doesn’t
pass in November, try
again.”
When asked what are the
most serious issues facing
the district, Snell, an accountant with three children
in SMMUSD schools,
replied “safety, and creating
socially conscious, intelligent children with a
sense of community.”
Pye, a businesswoman
and longtime community
educational activist who has
two children in district
schools, said that the district
needs to “challenge every
student and build community by caring for the entire
community.”
“Narrowing the achievement gap, increased funding
and teacher retention because of district economics,” were Bloomfield’s
concerns.
McLoud said his issues
were “achievement for all
students, with a focus on
low performing schools,
increasing efficiency in district operations to become
more of a partner with the
community and a stronger
teacher evaluation system.”
“Building new partnerships, reducing class size
and focusing on the environment in the curriculum”
were the subjects de la
Torre felt the district needed
to address.
Snell said that because he
is “a product of Head Start,”
he wants to see more general fund monies routed to
pre-kindergarten and after
school care.

A Matter of PUBLIC RECORD
(Continued from page 4)
FEATHERS
Editor:
What’s all this DNA testing stuff anyhow? The county is
trying to pin ocean pollution on Malibu residents by testing
the ocean’s DNA to see if it contains people droppings and
then track down the culprits who did the dropping.
Problem is there’s a prevailing eastbound current that
flows in Santa Monica Bay. This is what caused the small
plane that crashed in the ocean off Malibu Road a few years
ago to end up jammed in the pilings of Santa Monica pier.
The DNA that might be found can come from anywhere
in upstream California so trying to isolate the source would
be a futile task. Besides, doesn’t commingling DNA, as
would happen in the ocean, make it difficult to impossible
to analyze.
We also have millions of tourists using the ocean every
year. Not many of our public beaches have public toilets
and it would be naïve to think that the visitors all hold it
until they get home.
Pamela Anderson may be right when she tells us that the
real polluters are the chicken farms. It’s the job of our city
council to purge Malibu of this #@*!! chicken farm infestation. Make those feathers fly.
A chicken in every pot I say.
Jack Singleton
someone for this city position without issuing an RFP. Jeff
Jennings, to his credit as well, listened and tried to stem the
tide basing his position on the right thing being an RFP.
The surprise of the evening for me however was being
informed that Mayor Kearsley, the complete defender of
Ms. Shaw’s overly praised efforts on the Chilli acquisition,
had actually used Ms. Shaw in a previous campaign in running for the council. Sharon Barovsky, during her speaking
time, of course protested in the extreme to charges of cronyism. Between Ken and Sharon, if one didn’t get the real
understanding that Ms. Shaw wasn’t their “bud” then they
live on another planet.
Oh well, another night at the council. I went there wanting to speak against giving away $20,000 to their friend
and it cost us $30,000 instead! If I stay home more, look at
all the money Malibu can save! As to appointing friends,
where is Caesar’s wife when you need her?

Biggest Nuclear Spill in U.S. History Was Upwind of Malibu Creek
Radioactivity Drifted from Accident Site Located 20 Miles North of Coast
T
he possibility that

dumped radioactive material in Malibu Creek’s watershed was raised last week,
when scientists released a
series of reports about a
secret 1959 nuclear accident 20 miles north of Malibu.

that the current owners of

as tons of poisonous and
cancer-causing chemicals,
from the facility.
Kuehl said she is specifically angry that Boeing
will not release its detailed
weather data from the summer of 1959, crucial to
finding out which direction
the radioactive cloud was
blown. A Santa Ana wind
or other offshore wind
event could have blown the
cloud over the Malibu
Creek watershed and out to
sea over the few thousand
residents of 1959 Malibu.
Officials at Boeing,
which bought the Rocketdyne Santa Susana Field
Laboratory a decade ago,
vehemently dispute the
study’s conclusions.
“Two major environmental studies, which Boeing
was not a part of, examined
the site thoroughly and
have found there is no
health risk,” said the company’s environmental communications manager,
Blythe Jameson. “And an
examination of the cancer
reporting maps shows that
there is no concentration of
cancers among the plant’s
neighbors.”
Kuehl disagrees. “We
have never seen a federal
study that they (Boeing and
Rocketdyne) did not have
their fingers in,” she said.
“Their scientists always
show up to testify that they
are not responsible.”
An EPA study in 2003

Department cleanup of
spilled and partly-burned
rocket fuels and solvents is
underway. Several housing
projects are planned for the
immediate area, which federal officials say is safe for
habitation.
Kuehl said her job as a
state senator “is to make
sure development never
happens up there.”
In the report issued Friday, state scientists estimate that at least 260—and
possibly as many as 1800—
cases of human cancer
could be expected from the
airborne nuclear contamination. The report was
written over five years by a
committee of independent
scientists hired by the state
at the request of legislators
who represent the area.
The new state report was
hailed as vindication by
Simi Valley residents who
have been campaigning for
full disclosure for 17 years.
They said they were
shocked to learn in 1989
that rocket fuel oxidizers
called perchlorates, cancerous chemicals and poisons
were routinely dumped
into unlined disposal pits,
leached into groundwater
and flowed off the research
center site in washes and
creeks.
“It was the end of our
innocence,” wrote Dawn
Kowalski, one of four
neighbors galvanized into
action 17 years ago, Writing together in a report
released Friday, the neighbors said they were blindsided by the disclosures.
“The fact that the state
agencies we thought were
there to protect us knew
nothing about the radioactive work at the site was
also a rude awakening.”
The Rocketdyne Santa
Susana facility sits north of
Agoura Hills, with portions
of it draining east into the
Los Angeles River, west
into Calleguas Creek, and
south into Malibu Creek. It
was used beginning in 1946
for rocket engine tests that
sprayed deadly chemicals
onto the ground, which
may have leached into surface water runoff, and the
secret nuclear project beginning in 1949 saw 10
small reactors located there.

Planning Commission Explores View Ordinance
whose views and property
values are being compromised by negligent or
thoughtless neighbors,” he
added.
A Big Rock resident told
commissioners she had lost
most of the ocean view she
once enjoyed, and she was
also losing the value of her
property. “It is so much better if the city takes over. The
city has passed so many
other laws. We can enjoy
our view without paying for
an attorney,” she said.
Realtor Paul Grisanti said
the current proposal “is a
mishmash of touchy-feely,”
but that nothing would get
accomplished. “You have to
have a clear standard. We
need something simple.
How are you going to prove
a pre-existing view? It is an

not a well written ordinance,” he said.
Panelists were quick to
acknowledge they believed
view blockage is an important issue, but were stymied
about how to proceed. “It is
a major problem. There is a
battle on our street. Many of
the suggestions couldn’t fly
at all. The oak trees are protected, so are the sycamores.
I don’t believe we have a
stick to enforce it,” said
Commissioner John Sibert.
Commissioner Les Moss
said, “This is not simple.
Maybe this is a start. I was
stunned to see the Malibu
Country Estates [photos]
without trees. Maybe there
can be some wordsmithing
and we can try this out.
There is the expense. There
may be some people who
can’t afford to cut down
trees,” Moss added.
Commissioner Joan
House wanted to know if
there was something that
could be devised that didn’t
require a burden of proof.
“Rather than a burden of
proof, why can’t we determine the primary view,”
agreed Chair Carol Randall.
Peterson acknowledged
that code enforcement is the
key, but questioned just
how much enforcement
powers Malibu residents
realy wanted to cede to the
city in light of what he
called the “witch hunt” six
years ago, when citizens
revolted against the minimum level of enforcement
at the time.
City officials said it could
cost up to $300,000 a year
to administer an ordinance
recommended by many of
those who testified.

SEABOARD ROAD
A former planning commissioner, the current chair
of the panel and over two
dozen other speakers expressed concern about a
request to build a hilltop
mansion off a steeply sloped
access road on Seaboard
Road above Big Rock.
The application, which
was determined to be incomplete by the panel on a
4-0 vote, with Randall recusing herself since she
lives 500 feet from the proposal, calls for a 10,517square-foot house, with a
4,090-square-foot basement,
pool, tennis court and existing access road that would
be widened and improved.
The request requires several
variances, site plan reviews
and other waivers.
While most of the concerns expressed by the public dealt with the access
road and how it would
impact the 27 neighbors on
Seaboard who currently use
the road, the commission
deemed the application
incomplete because there
was no lot line adjustment
application before them.
The planning commissioners quizzed a fire official about department requirements. “There is a 40foot-wide easement, but
there is the encroachment
by 27 property owners. It
would not be reasonable to
tell [the applicant] that he
has to have a 20-foot-wide
road. That would kill the
project. If the driveway
exceeds 150 feet, we can
require turnouts. There are
three proposed turnouts,”

Impact on Whales
(Continued from page 3)
the LNG terminal to complete an assessment of its
impact on endangered animals, and coastal advocates
had zeroed in on perceived
errors in the Cabrillo Port
application. The federal letter lends credence to objections filed by the California
Coastal Protection Network
and by Oxnard and Malibu
residents.
In the new letter, NMFS
administrator Rodney McGinnis said that the BHP
Billiton LNG proposal was
in error when it said sea turtles and three
species of
whales were
“very unlikely” to be
found in the
Santa Barbara Channel, when
they are seen
there frequently. Because of that
error, NMFS
said it could
not examine
whether loud, continuous
noises from natural gas
ovens at Cabrillo Port could
harm passing whales.
“The determinations
made for marine mammals,” McGinnis wrote,
“are either incorrect or
insufficient.” Among impacts underestimated by
BHP Billiton is the danger
of LNG ship collisions
with whales known to frequent an area that, according to BHPB documents, is
devoid of the large creatures.
McGinnis indicated that
the amount of undersea
noise that would be created
by Cabrillo Port could
“have a deleterious effect
on marine mammals by
causing stress or injury, interfering with predator/
prey detection, and changing behavior,” as well as
cause temporary or permanent loss of sound, a possibly deadly impact that is
not addressed by Billiton.
The federal official said
a map of noise impact
areas still has not been produced by BHP Billiton.
NMFS said
some of the
data it is
seeking has
yet to be delivered three
years after
BHP Billiton was told
it needed to
provide it to
the agency.
A second
version of
an Environmental Impact Report is nearly six
months behind schedule, as
state officials grapple with
1400 supposed safety, terrorism and environmental
impact errors and omissions spotted by critics of
Cabrillo Port.
The NMFS letter was
written last July, but only
released by the federal
government late Tuesday,
too late for the newspaper
to solicit comments from
BHP Billiton and environmentalists.

Sheriff’s REPORT
PICKED PURSE
Lost Hills Sheriff’s deputies were called to a mid-Malibu pharmacy on September 27 at 11:40 a.m. after
receiving a call from a woman who reported that, while
shopping, she retrieved some coupons from her purse
and felt her wallet. A few minutes later, while reaching
for something on a shelf, she saw her purse was lighter,
and turning around, saw the suspect behind her—his
right shoulder almost touching her left shoulder. She
saw the suspect walking down the aisle, reached for her
wallet but noticed that it was missing. She walked down
the aisle to find him but realized he was gone. She notified her credit card company immediately.
BLOTTER BITS
A cell phone valued at $100 and a wallet worth $50 were
stolen from an unlocked vehicle parked on Pacific Coast
Highway on September 21, between 11 and 11:45 a.m.
The victim had parked her car near Zuma Beach while
she went for a walk, leaving the items in the center console. Shortly after filing the report, she discovered that
someone had used one of her credit cards to purchase a
bicycle from a shop about two miles from where the theft
had occurred...A vehicle parked in west Malibu was vandalized on September 21, when someone smashed the driver’s side window, causing $300 in damage. The deputy
on the scene said the damage was caused by a pellet from
a BB gun. Nothing was taken from the car...A west Malibu resident reported the theft of $50 sunglasses and a cell
phone charger between 11 p.m., September 23, and 6
a.m., September 24 from her unlocked vehicle. She also
stated that recently two neighbors in the area had things
stolen from their unlocked vehicles...A GPS device worth
$400 and a satellite receiver worth $99 were stolen from a
vehicle between 10 p.m., September 24, and 1 p.m., September 25. The victim could not remember if he had
locked his car, but the deputy on the scene was unable to
find any signs of forced entry.

years ago were addressed
by the two state agencies,
which found no wrongdo-
ing and the SMMC’s
actions to be perfectly
legitimate. She said the two
grants being questioned by
the taxpayers were specifically approved by the attorney general’s office. Citing
state policy, Skei said the
bond money may be used
for planning and legal services. “That is the law,” she
added.
Because the statute of
limitations to bring a reverse validation action is
approaching, the state
agencies are being asked to
respond by Oct. 17. If the
state does not file legal
action, the taxpayers have
indicated they will do so.

uralization Agency.
The felony counts are
based on allegations by the
Los Angeles District Attorney’s Auto Insurance Fraud
Division that Eriksson
brought the crashed Enzo
and two other high performance sports cars into the
U.S. without the consent of
the British financial institutions from which they were
leased and ceased payment.
Eriksson’s defense team
includes Alabama attorneys
Jim Parkman, Martin
Adams and William White
of The Cochran Firm in
Birmingham, the law firm
founded by the late Johnnie
Cochran, and Alec Rose, a
California criminal law
specialist.
Parkman, the lead defense counsel, declined to
comment on the case, but
earlier noted that he is
“looking forward to refuting many of the allegations
previously reported.”

OCTOBER 12 • 2006
The Aquarium AGE
The Week of October 12-18, 2006
his week, devote yourself to
letting go, and not only will
you align with the stars, you
will also align with the spirit of the
season. Spring isn’t the only time of
year to clean those closets. Autumn
is also a time of distillation, when
the early winds of winter separate
the wheat from the chaff, and we
experience the spiritual longing to know our value and
worth in the world. Several astrological patterns reflect the
current change of season. First, the Sun, Mars and Venus
are all conjunct in Libra, the sign symbolized by the scales,
which represent the ability to measure and weigh choices,
especially as those decisions relate to the people who populate our lives. Expect lots of people, including you, to be
going through lots of changes about relating. This planetary threesome signifies an amalgamation of vitality, idealism and the desire for wisdom that often produces creativity with a cause. Remember, creativity isn’t limited to an art
or a craft; creativity is also an attitude that views transformation—death and rebirth—as an essential part of the flux
of life. The second pattern is a square between Jupiter and
Saturn that’s closing into an exact position on October 25,
T
and as the gap narrows the intensity of its influence
expands. This is the first square between Saturn and Jupiter
since they were conjunct in Taurus at the end of May 2000.
Don’t be surprised if you’re revisiting decisions made six
years ago. This square is an opportunity to refine your perspective on those choices, as well adjust reactive behavior
and patterns taken on at that time. The ongoing trine
between Saturn and Pluto also continues to tighten its position. This is the first positive contact since the opposition
of 2001/2002. The interesting thing about Pluto, despite its
so-called demotion, is that even when it forms a positive
angle, whatever is lingering, or in this case malingering, as
part of that contact, must be exhumed, examined and put to
rest, before the benefits can be realized. Unfortunately, that
translates into the likelihood of many, many more disturbing revelations about what’s been going on behind the
scenes, collectively and personally. And this week, a trine
between Uranus, the master of startling plot twists, and
Mercury, the ruler of all things mental, promises that what
is revealed is sure to blow the mind. As the week unfolds
anticipate a tendency, yours or others, to cry at odd times.
From the perspective of Chinese medicine, autumn is the
metal season—a time to let go, but also a time to take in.
Breath is the universal symbol for that eternal motion. So,
as you move through the many transitions that lie ahead,

as teeth go
allow yourself to breathe deeply, through the highs and the
lows. And encourage your fellow travelers to do the same.
If you know your ascendant and/or your moon sign, read that too.
Aries (March 21-April l9): While the cliché “neither a borrower
nor a lender be” is often true, sometimes borrowing or lending provides the necessary support for success. There’s no hard and fast
rule about money—it’s simply a matter of how you handle it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): It’s an identity crisis, and the crux of
the intensity is focused on how you get your needs met by others.
Be aware, this process isn’t about entitlement. It’s about the clarity
of what’s needed next.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Your words can soothe, agitate, or offer
penetrating insight into perplexing situations. Use your skill at
communicating with a wide range of people about a variety of subjects, and you’ll achieve the desired results.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Surrender is not your strong suit and letting go doesn’t come easy. But if you could learn to volunteer for a
new approach, the shifts in your life will feel less like loss and more
like a change of heart.
Leo (July 23-August 22): Stimulating conversations with friends
and associates trigger your creative process and allow you to make
the necessary adjustments and refinements to your plans. Stay flexible, and you’ll be able to handle almost any situation.
Virgo (August 23-September 22): The ability to ask for help when you
need it an essential quality of a strong, healthy body and soul. So seek the
opinion of those your respect, and consider the advice even if it is radical.
Libra (September 23-October 22): There’s no need to be shy about shining brightly, especially if you remember to illuminate the equally brilliant
presence of others. Your light will only be enhanced by your generosity.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Trust your intuition, particularly in
instances when you need to make a quick assessment of an intense situation. Just don’t assume an outcome before you validate your hunch.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): Rather than resist, be
open to the possibilities. Sure, it’s gonna require a little work. And
yes, you’re gonna have to suit up and show up, but there’s gold in
those hills and it’s just waiting to be mined.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19): Surprising work-related circumstances consume your energy and attention. Set a comfortable
pace that allows routine tasks as well as “emergencies,” and you’ll
manage the situation with skill.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18): Continue to have the courage
of your convictions and you’ll not only strengthen your resolve,
you’ll inspire others to be idealistic as well. Teaching by example
is an efficient and effective way to transmit ideas.
Pisces (February 19-March 20): It’s not the same old song—not at
all—and that could be part of the problem because letting go means
not having anything familiar to hold onto. Don’t let that stop you—
the time is right to shift both attitude and direction.

Malibu Sharks Enter Conference Play with 28-0 Blowout
W
ith the start of
conference play
coming
up
next, and just
one victory behind them,
the Malibu Sharks foot-
ball squad needed a big
win last week. How does
a 28-0 blowout sound?
“It gives the boys proof

we face is 0-0,” said coach
XC Race Roundup
The Malibu High School
Cross Country Division IV
Sharks competed with
teams from much larger
Division I and II schools at
last Friday’s Dos Pueblos
Invitational held at Shoreline Park in Santa Barbara.
The athletes ran by class.
Gianna Fote looked strong
in the freshman girls field,
tying for third at 21:10.
Sophomore Katie Rollins
missed a medal by one second, coming in 21st at
24:02. Cameron Burrell
medaled in the junior heat
at 18:00, earning 19th
place. The senior girls team
captain Becki Ottusch also
tied for third in her race at
20:35, and senior boys
team captain Stopher Eldridge tied for a medal for
14th place at 17:23.
XC enthusiasts say that
this is the first time the
MHS Sharks have fielded
such strong boys and girls
teams. They say the Sharks
are holding their own
against highly competitive
teams, putting them on the
road to CIF competition.
The Sharks host their
home meet this Thursday,
at 3:30 p.m. at the MHS
track.

Ray Humphrey after the
game.
Friday night, the Sharks
executed nearly perfect
offense, executing no offensive turnovers as they
controlled the field from
start to finish, rolling over
the Daniel Murphy High
School Nobles.
Playing at historic Jackie Robinson Stadium in
the Crenshaw District, the
Sharks offense took command, aided by the firsttime appearance of running back Miles Brooks.
The senior has watched
the Sharks amass a 1-3
record while healing from
a serious automobile accident, but was able to suit
up for the first time last
week.
Junior standout J.P.
O’Fallon scored the first
two touchdowns, first
with a leaping catch in the
right end zone from 16
yards out.
And with 13 seconds
left in the first half, the
Dusty Kramer-to-O’Fallon handoff combination
was successful again, and
the Sharks took to the
locker room with a 14-0
halftime lead.

HORSES
These three beautiful furry kitties need you desperately! These adorable friends
were abandoned at Sherman’s Place, left all alone on her front door step. They are
now at the Agoura Animal Shelter. They are sweet cats and very bonded to each
other. They are also blind. This is a case for Cat Heroes! Can you open your heart
and your home to these dear cats? They have no hope if someone will not adopt
them. They are 9 years young and have gotten along great in life despite their
blindness. They have adapted–can you?
Their names are Daisy, Huey and Louie. All are fixed, vaccinated and now
microchipped. They are healthy and tested negative for FIV and FeLV.
Any Cat Angel wishing to meet them can come and snuggle with them at the
shelter. Adoption fees will only be $32 each.
Remember, animals come into our lives for a reason. They are all our gifts.
Open your hearts and let soft, purring love in! They need you! Adoption numbers–Daisy A3571482, Huey A3571483, Louie A3571484.
“Please give our wonderful friends here a chance at love and life. Their time
at the shelter is limited, they truly need an open heart and loving friend.
To save an animal friend is the least that we can do.”
Neither The News nor any of the animal volunteers can determine the
appropriateness of a particular animal for a prospective adopter.
