COC American Sign Language Student
Wins Statewide Scholarship
A touching essay about her
experiences as an intern in
the Sulphur Springs School
District earned American
Sign Language student
Courtney Wiscarson a
statewide scholarship, and
the honor of being the first
student from College of the
Canyons to win the award.
“Fingers flutter and hands
slide as they form pictures
and words; each sign comes
together to create the beautiful art of American Sign
Language,”
Wiscarson
wrote in her award-winning
essay for the Dr. Bernard L.
Hyink Scholarship given by
the California Internship
and
Work
Experience
Association (CIWEA).
The COC Cooperative
Work Experience Education (CWEE) department is
a member of CIWEA,
California’s leading professional
association
for
educators and employers
dedicated to supporting
internship and work experience programs in higher
education.
Gina
Bogna,
acting
assistant dean of COC’s
Internships, Job Development, and Career Center,
encouraged 10 students
from the college to apply for
the award’s two-year college
category, which was open to
students from California’s
113 community colleges.

Smyth Launches Council Run
By Lee Barnathan
Contributor
The way Cameron Smyth sees it, Santa Clarita is at a crossroads. It’s no longer the small town in which he grew up (in
fact, it’s the third largest city in L.A. County). Its population (213,231) is on the way to a quarter million in a valley
of about 300,000.
The way Smyth sees it, the decisions the City Council
makes will determine how similar the city remains to its
small-town roots. He wants in on those decisions, so the
former City Councilmember is entering the race.
“Now’s the time, and the City Council is the right place,”
he said. “The Council needs to focus on the big issues and
not get caught in the minutiae.”
son – was selected to receive the $1,000
award.
Her 750-word essay about working as an
interpreter highlighted the resilience of
the deaf and hard-of-hearing students
with whom she worked.
Smyth’s path to his candidacy began after Jan. 1 when he
started making calls and reconnecting with the community,
even though he has lived locally since ending his service in
the state Assembly in 2012 (he’s currently vice president of
state affairs for Molina Healthcare).
What he has heard is the need to keep the city safe.

She also touched on the uncertainty she felt in taking what she
learned in the classroom and applying it in a professional setting,
in particular, her worry about signing incorrectly to the children.
Wiscarson credited her mentor
with guiding her through the internship experience: “She did everything in her power for these
kids, and she did everything in her
power for me.”
The successful internship confirmed Wiscarson’s career goal of
working as an interpreter with elementary school children.

Cameron Smyth
“Santa Clarita prided itself on being
one of the safest cities in the country,”
Smyth said of the city ranked the 37th
safest in California in 2013 by Safewise
and second nationally in 2014 by Movato. “But in 2015, there were more
murders than in recent memory. Is that
an anomaly or a trend?”
Another subject not being talked about,
Smyth said, is drug use among young
people in the area’s high school and
college campuses. “These are very real
issues,” he said.
the same people with whom he served,
including Kellar and Marsha McLean.
Both said Smyth did his homework,
was knowledgeable about the issues
and put the citizens first.
Opinions about Smyth’s chances vary.
He obviously has received enough
positive reaction to think he has a good
chance. Kellar said he and Smyth are
holding a joint fundraiser at a private
residence on May 14.
Should Smyth win, he will find some of
“Cameron Smyth is the business-asusual candidate,” Petzold said. “He
didn’t talk about chlorides (in the water). He didn’t talk about maybe we go
to a charter city. He didn’t talk about
maybe we go to district (voting).”
Smyth’s response: Nonsense.
“I’m anything but,” he said. “Consider
the experience I have: my reputation,
who did everything he thought was
right and didn’t care which side of the
aisle it came from. That’s been my philosophy.”
Smyth enters an already crowded race:
Although no one can officially file papers until July 18, Mayor Bob Kellar
and Councilmember TimBen Boydston
have said they are running for re-election; Canyon Country retired aerospace worker Alan Ferdman also has
announced his candidacy.
Additionally, Saugus realtor Steve Petzold and Newhall Water District Board
member Maria Gutzeit have filed
“statement of intention to run” papers,
although Petzold said he filed papers
assuming the city would go to district
voting; since it didn’t, he isn’t running.
The deadline to file with the city is Aug.
12. The election is Nov. 8, and the top
two vote getters win seats.
of change the way Boydston is or Ferdman would be.
Ferdman believes Smyth has been out
of the game too long to be remembered, and he needs to be held accountable for his record. Ferdman said he
is examining Smyth’s record now but
said Smyth in 2014 favored Measure S,
which would have torn down between
62 and 118 billboards along the Metrolink railroad tracks and replaced them
with three digital billboards along the
14 and 5 freeways. The voters soundly
rejected the measure.
Petzold, a supporter of Boydston and
Ferdman, thinks Smyth will be formidable but doesn’t think he’s an agent
“Why he made the decision to support
it? He will have to answer,” Ferdman
said.

anta Clarita residents are encouraged to offer input at a community
meeting hosted by The Los Angeles
County Metropolitan Transportation
Authority (Metro) on Wednesday,
May 11, 2016 at 5:30 p.m. The public
can weigh in on a draft expenditure
plan that outlines more than $120
billion in transit, highway and local
projects over the next four decades
and would be funded through a potential sales tax ballot measure that
may go before voters on November 8.
The meeting will be held at The Centre, located at 20880 Centre Pointe
Parkway in Santa Clarita.
The ballot measure under consideration would ask voters to increase
the countywide sales tax by a half
cent for 40 years and to continue the
existing Measure R tax. The existing Measure R tax is a half-cent sales
tax for Los Angeles County used to
finance new transportation projects
and programs, and accelerate those
already in the pipeline — for an additional 18 years, both of which would
run through 2057. In total, the 40year plan would fund nearly 40 major highway and transit projects and
another 36 transportation programs
to improve the movement of people,
goods and services.
In addition to new transit and highway projects, the expenditure draft
plan includes commuter rail; transit
operations and projects to keep buses,

and he gets on well with other dogs. How could

Santa Clarita residents who attend
the meeting will have a chance to ask
questions about the new measure and

to provide feedback on L.A. County’s future transportation plan,” said
Councilmember Marsha McLean.
The full expenditure plan is available

to take a look at the plan, realizing
that it is a working draft document
and subject to change, as the process
goes forward. Residents are also encouraged to provide their feedback by

Directors as they contemplate a final
expenditure plan and decide in June
whether to put the measure on the
November ballot. For more information about the draft expenditure plan

Team Captains of ‘Walk to
End Alzheimer’s’ Meet
T
he first Alzheimer’s Association
California Southland Chapter’s
2016 Walk to End Alzheimer’s Team
Captain Meeting is scheduled for
Wednesday, May 25, 2016 from 6:30
p.m.-8:30 p.m.
Rick Ferrante, owner of Home Care
Services, will host the meeting at
23340 Cinema Dr., Suite 5 in Santa
Clarita.
Representatives from the SCV Walk
Committee and the Alzheimer’s Association will be in attendance. “This
is going to be a great evening and a
chance to help our team captains
build their teams and raise funds,”
says Ferrante. “We really appreciate
everyone who is stepping forward
and helping make The Walk to End
Alzheimer’s a success.”
The 2016 Walk is scheduled for Saturday, October 8 at Bridgeport Park in
Valencia. Registration is open at act.
alz.org/scv.
Karen Spalter, who is organizing
‘Team Make a Difference,” will be attending the meeting. This is Karen’s
second year of participation. Her
husband Matt was diagnosed with
early onset front temporal dementia
in 2012.
She and Matt have experienced all the
stages of emotions that come with the
diagnosis, from denial and disbelief
to depression, and finally, acceptance.
“I joined the local Alzheimer’s Association support group and found
guidance and valuable information
to guide me through this journey,”
Karen Spalter says.
Abi Caruthers is founder of a local
business called L.O.V.E. Weight Loss
and has signed on as a sponsor for
The Walk. She also plans to be at the
meeting. When Abi’s grandmother,
who she calls Nana, started to display
symptoms of dementia she ignored
them, hoping it would just go away.
Eventually it progressed and Nana
was diagnosed as suffering from Alzheimer’s disease.
Though her company is in the business of helping people, Caruthers’
inability to help Nana has made her
feel helpless. She believes that being
involved with the Alzheimer’s Association and The Walk relieves that
feeling of helplessness and gives her
hope and direction.
“Abi Caruthers of L.O.V.E Weight
Loss really understands what it
means to be a part of the Santa Clarita community and how important
it is to support the Alzheimer’s Association,” Ferrante says. “We really
appreciate Abi and her team for their
participation.”

Applications Due for
Hometown Heroes Banner
T
he City of Santa Clarita’s Hometown Heroes Military Banner
Program is accepting orders for banners to be installed for Memorial Day,
Fourth of July and Veterans Day. In
order to have a banner installed in
honor of Memorial Day, banners for
actively-serving military members
from Santa Clarita Valley must be ordered by Monday, May 9, 2016.
The Hometown Heroes Military Banner Program offers local friends and
families of those currently serving in
the military the opportunity to have
one streetlight pole banner hung along
a major thoroughfare in one of Santa Clarita’s communities, including:
Canyon Country, Valencia, Saugus
and Newhall. Each banner features
the military member’s photograph,
name, rank and branch of the military
they serve.
To qualify, banner honorees must be
active duty military personnel in the
United States Armed Forces; they
must be a current Santa Clarita resident, or an immediate family member
of a current Santa Clarita resident and
must have lived in the Santa Clarita
Valley at some point.
“I’m very excited about this program,
which will honor our currently-serving military,” said Mayor Bob Kellar. “The community has really come
together for this program, providing
donations to help underwrite the cost
of the banners for those in need. This
is a great way to pay homage to those
who are serving our country.”
As an ongoing program, Hometown
Heroes Military banner orders will
be accepted at any time. Banners can
be purchased by individuals, family members or organizations. Order
forms can be found at santa-clarita.
com. For more information about the
Hometown Heroes Military Banner
Program, contact Communications
Manager Gail Morgan at (661) 2554314 or [email protected].
Supporting the work the Alzheimer’s
Association does to assist patients
and their families is important to
Spalter and Caruthers. Both feel that
although it may to too late for their
loved ones, it is especially necessary
to raise funds and contribute to the
research to find a cure.
Contact Anita Smith at anita@anitasmithhomes or 661-803-8498 for information about the meeting or starting a team.
For general information, including sponsoring or exhibiting at the
The Walk, contact SCV Walk Chair

Award-Winning Panel to Address Aspiring Musicians
p
M
usicians of all skill sets are invited to attend the free New Heights: The
Pros and Cons of Managing Your Own Music Career Workshop on
Wednesday, March 11 from 7-9 p.m. in the Century Room at Santa Clarita
City Hall, located at 23920 Valencia Boulevard.
Ruben Zarate is a singer/songwriter and a member of the Santa Barbara-based
band, Dante Elephante. The band is punk at heart, but with a timeless, organic
sound. His musical influences include Brian Wilson, John Lennon, The Pixies
and The Pastels.
The panel discussion will serve as a resource for musicians who are currently
managing their own music career or are interested in managing their career.
This unique workshop will provide attendees with valuable insight into the
management side of music. The lessons, tools and techniques from this session
are intended to provide personal insight, both positive and negative, from an
experienced panel of musicians from a variety of genres.
Justin Rubenstein, a member and manager of The Blasting Company, a sixpiece brass band, will also be a featured panelist. The Blasting Company got
its start in 2007 as a traveling family band whose original and traditional folk
music derives its sounds from New Orleans and Eastern Europe. While The
Blasting Company tours internationally and scores for film and television,
the band stays true to its roots as a street band. The musical group recently
completed the soundtrack for the Emmy-winning animated miniseries “Over
the Garden Wall,” soon to be released on vinyl.
The panel discussion will feature Scotty Kormos, Mike Fleming, Ruben Zarate
and Justin Rubenstein.
Scotty Kormos has spent the last decade in Los Angeles working on numerous
high profile projects with writers, producers and musicians. Kormos was the
house band drummer on the CMT show, “The Singing Bee,” and has over 55
national television performances to his credit. His drumming, producing and
engineering skills make him a top call artist in Los Angeles. Kormos also heads
up Los Angeles-based Bright Light Entertainment, Inc.
Mike Fleming is a singer/songwriter from Colorado. His songs pay tribute
to the men and women of the American West and all that they bring to our
culture. His years as a solo musician, as well as the leader of the band New
West, have taken him all over the United States and Canada. Fleming has won
two Will Rogers awards from the Academy of Western Artists for his songs and
another with New West.
The New Heights discussion series is an annual Artist Development series
through the City of Santa Clarita. New Heights is designed to assist artists,
performers and arts organization representatives to expand their knowledge
and to learn valuable tools to increase their ability to be successful. The series
includes workshops, panel discussions, lectures and classes that are aimed to
engage creative individuals, no matter the level of experience.
For more information about the New Heights series, contact the City’s Arts
and Events Supervisor, Jeff Barber, at (661) 250-3779 or jbarber@santa-clarita.

Gold, Movies, Bad Guys & Genene Staats
On This Date in SCV History:
We are fortunate to live in one of the most eclectic and
historically significant crossroads in all of America.
Here’s what happened in our home town on this week
in history…
IN EONS GONE BY …
• There are many conflicting dates about when the
SCV’s first judicial district and judge started. But, the
Soledad Judicial District was created on May 8, 1875
with John Powell holding court. Powell was not the
first judge in the SCV, but he was the most famous.
Powell was the valley’s jurist for 40 years and never
had a case of his overturned in a higher court. He led
troops in seven Civil War battles (for the north). On
his dying bed, he recounted that the best thing he had
ever done was free 704 slaves in Africa bound for the
states. His assistant in that raid? One Dr. Stanley Livingston, of “Dr. Livingston, I presume,” fame.
• It was and is one of the most important Native
American discoveries in U.S. history. On May 2, 1884,
Castaic brothers Everette and McCoy Pyle discovered
a huge Tataviam cache above present-day Chiquita
Landfill on Highway 126. The place was later called
Bowers Cave after the Ventura doctor to whom the
boys sold their treasure. History offers two figures: $35
and $1,500. Because of poor security concerns in the
SCV, those artifacts are still in boxes somewhere in the
basement at Harvard’s Peabody Museum.
• The San Francisquito Mining District was established on May 2, 1842, commemorating the discovery
of gold by Don Francisco Lopez and three partners,
possibly in Placerita Canyon. While it has been celebrated as the first gold discovery in Southern California, gold mining had been going on in the SCV as far
back as the late 1700s. Lopez got $54 from the governor and a serious land-grant near Piru.
90 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1926 ...
• Hard to believe, but we had TWO open-all-night eateries in the SCV. Besides the Saugus Café, there was
the long-defunct Newhall Café. Because the new State
Route 6 ran through downtown Newhall, we had an
increase of all-night traffic.
• While he didn’t move in until 1928, Hall of Fame
cowboy Andy Jauregui began work on his new ranch
house in Placerita Canyon. The world-famous rodeo
star, impresario and movie stuntman/stock provider
would live there until his death in 1990.
• The Hoffman Universal Picture Company put the
old abandoned Sterling Borax Works back to work.
They used the town as a set for a major silent movie,
starring Lillian Rich.
80 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1936 ...
• It was like having Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise and
George Clooney at your elementary school. Three of
the world’s top box office stars (and all of them locals
at one time) showed up at Newhall Elementary for
a special screening of “Powder Smoke Range.” That
would be Harry Carey, Hoot Gibson and Tom Mix.
Admission was rather steep for the Depression — 40
cents for adults, and a quarter for kids.
70 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1946 ...
• Long before there was Uber, we had Newhall Taxi.
Bruce Brinkman started the SCV’s first cab company
on this date, using a swank and brand new two-tone
green Chevy. Bruce and his wife were also the SCV’s
first cabbies and provided 24-hour service.
• Funny how we take street names for granted. For
instance, that little road separating Placerita Jr. High
and Newhall Park is Dalbey Drive. It’s named after
Lester Dalbey. On this week in history, he was named
Hart High’s first principal and was responsible for
much of the look and feel of the august campus.
• Sadly, arson is an ancient, vile and sick crime. The
law was searching for a pervert from yesteryear. He set
fire to the Philbert Ranch Stables in Placerita Canyon.
A valuable riding horse was burned alive in his stall.
60 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1956 ...
• The residents of Sand Canyon were none too happy. L.A. County ordered them to change from their
single, double and triple addresses to more modern
five-digit addresses.
On May 4, 1903, President Theodore Roosevelt (right) stayed
at the historic Acton Hotel to catch up with an old friend,
Norman Rosy Melrose (left). The two went hunting. Earlier, Melrose was one of the California delegates at the GOP
convention who nominated TR for the presidency. Rosy was
also the pistol fighter who shot the mayor of Acton, Gene
Broom, in a rather one-sided gunfight a few years earlier.
The coroner was rather humorous about the three bullets in
the mayor’s heart. “Good grouping” read his report. This
photo was taken around the 1920s of the Acton Hotel. In an
act of arson and extortion, the classic resort would be burnt
to the ground in 1945 by its manager. Up for some trivia?
Theodore HATED being called “Teddy.”
• In the late 1950s and early 1960s, the #1 cause of
admission to the little Newhall Hospital was the selfinflicted gunshot wound. While there were the regular
hunting and gun-cleaning mishaps, TV was to blame.
Depending on the year, 70-90 percent of the top
shows were Westerns and all Westerns had in common the fast draw. It became a national craze. The
SCV, with all its lonely canyons, became a favored
place for SoCal-onite gunslinging wannabes to practice. Eugene Paynter was the latest victim. Mimicking Hugh O’Brien’s Wyatt Earp character, but not too
successfully, Paynter was trying his fast draw, using
Buntline Special knock-offs. Paynter pulled both longbarreled pistols simultaneously, didn’t quite clear the
holsters, then shot matching holes through his thighs,
calves and feet. Ain’t it grand to have a hobby?
• Abe Lefton entertained audiences from here to Calgary and Madison Square Garden with his melodious
voice. He was also one of the world’s top rodeo announcers and lived in a humble little cabin in Placerita Canyon. He had a special dinner in his honor
hosted by Montie Montana, Roy Rogers, the Sons of
the Pioneers and Gene Autry. Autry took care of Lefton in his declining years, as Abe suffered through a
debilitating palsy, although the singing cowboy didn’t
really want his good deeds to go public. That Gene
was good medicine.
A HALF CENTURY AGO THIS WEEK, 1966 ...
• My dear friend, hero and Treat Patroller, Genene
Doty, made history. Today, Acton’s premier citizen,
Mrs. Genene Staats won $25 for designing the 1966
Hart High Booster Club Pin. It’s still a veritable work
of art.
• A few old-timers remember the Corral Drive-In up
San Francisquito Canyon. Briefly, it was called The
Valencia Drive-In. Fifty years back, it was showing
“Clarence the Cross-Eyed Lion.” Clarence, by the by,
was a local and lived up Soledad Canyon. In a cage.
• The SCV’s road to the Pacific, Highway 126, used to
be called “Suicide Highway” for all its fatalities. A few
miles across the valley, another roadway had a grisly
nickname. Highway 14 was called “Slaughter Highway.” On this date, there were two head-ons on 14,
both involving local fatalities caused by drunk drivers. We should have added Highway 99. They had a
pair of fatal wrecks on this date 50 years back. Locals
formed the “Committee to End Death on Highway
14.” They didn’t stop it.
• We named our newest elementary — Old Orchard.
Should have been called Old Potato Farm because it
was built in a spud field and there hadn’t been an orchard there since the time of dinosaurs or possibly a
smidge sooner…
40 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1976 ...
• The road, if not to hell then just the road, is paved
with good intentions. L.A. County planted lush greenery in several meridians around the SCV, then stopped
watering them. The CHP requested the foliage die.
Seems the water was escaping onto the road, making
it slippery. Eleven accidents were blamed on overwatering. You’d think they could have figured how to
just, plain, water…
• The ’70s were a strange time. Some 200 people
showed up at Vasquez Rocks to participate in or witness a mass divorce celebration. KFI radio personality Dick Whittington hosted the “Marriage on the
Rocks” event and was broadcast live. Ten couples
participated, including one wearing a “Miss Nude
America Pageant” T-shirt. Love is a fleeting thing…
• Many locals were taken in by Richard “The Swindler” Schindler. From his empire at Plaza Posada,
Schindler bilked clients out of $12 million in an elaborate gold mine Ponzi scheme. Of all things, he was
arrested in Florida for failing to return a rental car.
When he got out of jail, he strangled his wife in Palm
Springs, then committed suicide using a shotgun on
himself.
• Scientists from the DWP issued a report to ease worries from residents downstream of Bouquet Reservoir.
The dam held back 12 billion gallons of water and the
men in the white coats noted it was safe from rupture.
30 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1986 ...
• How did Wayside Honor Rancho change from being a model small offender farm that fed the county’s
prisoners with bread, milk and dairy to the gladiator
school it is today? Thank the ACLU, 1st District Supervisor Gloria Molina and 2nd District Supe Kenny
Hahn. The county desperately needed a new prison,
but Molina teamed up with Hahn to keep it out of her
East L.A. territory for political reasons. The ACLU
stepped in, suing L.A. to release 2,000 hardened
criminals from Central Jail because of overcrowding.
Hence, the felons were shipped to Castaic. The prison
changed its name to Pitchess Prison (after Peter J.
Pitchess, the Sheriff).
• While the above was going on, the county supes
voted 5-0 to urge the state to give the death penalty for
large volume drug dealers. Democrats in Sacramento
ignored the request.

OPINION
The Media is Feeding Us Bread and Circus
Will You Fiddle While Rome Burns?
By Andrea Slominski
Contributor
W
hat is the media’s responsibility
to the people? It seems that the
creeping deregulation of TV and radio
has left us with a purely market-driven
communication system that feels no
obligation whatsoever to serve or inform the public in a fair and balanced
manner.
From the beginning of radio broadcasting, the idea of “serving the public interest” has been fundamental to those
station owners and operators who are
granted licenses to broadcast using the
airwaves in the U.S. In a report from
the FCC on the current policy and
regulatory landscape, you can follow
the original intent of President Herbert Hoover when he granted the right
in 1924: “The test of the broadcasting
privilege [must] be based on the needs
of the public served by the proposed
station.”
What came next was a journey through
the deregulation maze to the current
free-for-all that has become cable and
network news.
In 1981, FCC Chairman Mark Fowler,
appointed by Ronald Reagan, argued
for the deregulation of TV and conversion to a completely market-driven
mandate. The FCC report says about
Fowler, “In his view, the public interest would be determined by ‘the public’s interest’: if the public did not like
the way a broadcaster was operating its
station, people would stop watching or
listening, and, without the sufficient
numbers of eyes and ears, advertisers
would stop providing the station revenue. The operation would fail without
the need for government safeguards or
intervention.”
This is the heart of the matter. If all
broadcasting is market-driven, and
if numbers of viewers increases ratings, and thus station income, where
does the public interest fit into this
cash-driven scenario? The answer is it
doesn’t. Rather than cover world and
national events with balanced report-
ing in order to keep Americans informed and educated about events in
this ever more complex world, we end
up with Donald Trump and his outrageous statements 24/7, monopolizing
the airwaves, because, like the Kardashians, he is an outrageous celebrity.
His outrageous statements have kept
him as the lead story in the news and
there has not been, even a half-hearted
attempt, to balance coverage between
the presidential candidates.
Even journalists are despairing behind
the scenes, unable to control the money
machine that has become mainstream
news coverage. Campbell Brown, a former CNN News anchor quotes some
of her former colleagues in her recent
article for Politico, “Why I Blame TV
For Trump.”
What does this do to our national political discourse when one candidate,
by being the most controversial, gets
all the news coverage? How can the
people be expected to make informed
decisions when they cannot hear balanced, unbiased coverage of the candidates and their ideas? Where would
this election process be if Rubio, Kasich, Cruz, or Sanders had been the
one candidate monopolizing the news
cycle for months on end? A better question is where would this election be if
the airtime had been balanced between
all the candidates? This is the future of
our republic we are debating, not a reality TV show. There are real and present dangers to our nation and the world
that cannot be solved by building walls,
torture or “bomb the shit out of ‘em!”
as Trump so famously shouted.
lywood Reporter, “‘It may not be good
for America, but it’s damn good for
CBS,’ he said of the presidential race.
Moonves called the campaign for president a ‘circus’ full of ‘bomb throwing,’
and he hopes it continues. ‘Most of the
ads are not about issues. They’re sort
of like the debates. … Man, who would
have expected the ride we’re all having
right now? ... The money’s rolling in
and this is fun. … I’ve never seen anything like this, and this is going to be a
very good year for us. Sorry. It’s a terrible thing to say. But, bring it on, Donald. Keep going … Donald’s place in
this election is a good thing. … There’s
a lot of money in the marketplace,’ the
exec said of political advertising so far
this presidential season.”
“‘It feels like it’s over,’ one old friend
from my television days told me recently. Any hope of practicing real journalism on TV is really, finally finished,”
Brown’s article says, then continues
with the opinions of her colleagues.
“‘Look, we’ve always done a lot of
stupid shit to get ratings. But now it’s
like we’ve just given up and literally
handed over control hoping he’ll save
us. It’s pathetic, and I feel like hell.’
Said another friend covering the presidential campaign for cable news, ‘I am
swilling antidepressants trying to figure
out what to do with my life when this
is over.’”
In 1985, Daniel Borrstin’s book, “The
Image: A Guide to Pseudo-Events in
America,” was published and proved to
be a prophetic vision of American culture and politics, fulfilled in a culture
that has produced Donald Trump. In
his recent article for Bill Moyers.com,
“How the Media Enabled Donald
Trump by Destroying Politics First,”
Neal Gabler discusses the book. He
writes, “… his seminal book, The Image, described a society in which things
were increasingly staged expressly for
the media without any intrinsic merit
of their own – things like photo ops,
press conferences, award ceremonies.
If this election cycle disaster has shown
me anything, it is that deregulation is
not necessarily a good thing … like in
banking. Perhaps we should go back
to equal airtime for all candidates, and
link it to campaign finance reform. We
need to level the playing field so the
citizen candidate has a chance to serve
the public good, not just those wealthy
enough to mount a political campaign
outrageous enough to garner the complete attention of the once journaliststurned-ratings-and-advertising-whores
in the media.
In The New York Times article of
March 15, 2016, “Measuring Donald
Trump’s Mammoth Advantage in Free
Media,” Nicholas Confessore and Karen Yourish note that in February 2016
alone, Trump received $400 million in
free media. He is the all-time historical
leader in all types of free media, including the Internet. The article says,
“Over the course of the campaign, he
has earned close to $2 billion worth of
media attention, about twice the all-in
price of the most expensive presidential campaigns in history.”
He labeled these ‘pseudo-events’ because they only looked like real events,
while being hollow inside. And Boorstin defined pseudo-people too – people
whose activities, as he put it, had no
intrinsic value either. He called them
‘celebrities,’ and he defined them as
people who were known for being wellknown.”
It all boils down to money. When the
head of CBS television, puts money
ahead of the public good and the future of our nation and makes statements like these, according to the Hol-
We are all in BIG trouble.

Chamber of Commerce:
News has been breaking regarding the Santa Clarita
Valley Chamber of Commerce recently. As a member
of the board of directors for the organization, and as
publisher of this newspaper, I made the decision that
the Gazette will not cover these recent events, as I feel
it would be a conflict of interest.
Court Battle Rages On:
My wife Jeannie and I really appreciate the support
the community has given us in the very unfortunate
legal battle we’re in with The Signal. The support
has come from folks we know, but also from many
Gazette readers and the like, who we don’t know. If
you’re keeping score, the court hearing was continued by the
judge in the case until June 8.
braska senator), Mitt Romney, Christine Todd Whitman (former Republican governor of New Jersey),
Lindsey Graham, Michael Hayden (former CIA director) and even Ted Cruz, just to name a few Republicans, all have one thing in common. They are
vehemently against Donald Trump.
Okay, I get that, but now that Mr. Trump is going to
be the Republican candidate, what are you guys going to do? You are good at throwing disdainful verbal
arrows at him, but I’ve never heard any of you say
what you will do if he wins the nomination. Look,
I get where you are coming from. He wasn’t my first
choice; he has a lot of undesirable positions for conservatives. But, in your rather emotional tirades, I and
many others would like to hear what your “plan B” is.
Many have indicated to us that they really don’t understand what, why or how The Signal is doing what
they’re doing. I have to tell you I completely understand – it’s somewhat complicated.
Are you going to vote for Hillary? Are you going to do
your best to derail Trump at the convention, ignoring
the overwhelming number of votes he has received?
Are you going to form a third party and nominate a
candidate that will do nothing but split the vote and
allow Hillary to waltz right in to the White House?
Here’s a synopsis:
Really?
-The Signal lost to the Gazette in court (fair and
square) in our bid to be a newspaper of record, allowing us to publish legal notice ads.
Do you really want Mrs. Clinton in the White House
instead of Trump? If so, have the guts to come out
and say so. Have the guts to show us your true colors.
If you are planning to turn the convention on its ear
with a delegate mutiny, convey that. Again, if you’re
so unhappy with Trump, tell us what the heck to do
about it, instead of hiding in silence allowing the Party to splinter into pieces.
-The Signal is very unhappy about the ruling, because
they don’t want to lose any of that type of revenue
to us.
-Since that ruling (six weeks ago) they are attempting
to disrupt our business by involving themselves in our
Chapter 13 bankruptcy (reorganization, not liquidation) we filed in September of 2013.
-This is where it gets really complicated and if I try to
explain it in detail you will get lost and/or bored.
-I will say that we have never owed The Signal a dime.
They never had absolutely anything to do with our
reorganization in September of 2013 … up until now.
To try and sum this up, the most pressing issue is
the last motion The Signal filed, attempting to have
our type of bankruptcy (Chapter 13) converted to a
Chapter 7 and PAY the court a sum of money so The
Signal can PURCHASE THE GAZETTE. Their argument is that this is in the “best interest” of the Gazette’s creditors.
Maybe?
Would you even consider Trump, instead of opening the White House door for Hillary? If you have
just a smidgen of Republican blood in your bodies, will
you perhaps hold your nose and get behind Trump?
Maybe you can drop your selfishness, get over yourselves for six months and help put someone in the
White House who will at least give us half a chance
of getting this country back on track. If you aren’t big
enough boys and girls to do this, we will fall into four
more years like the last eight. Is that what you really
want? Do you really think the country can (literally)
afford that? Is there a way you can overcome the personality conflict you have with Donald, swallow your
pride and get on board the best political train we have
going now? I sure hope so.
What’s Important?
What I and many others cannot fathom is IF THE
SIGNAL IS NOT A CREDITOR OF OURS, HOW
CAN OUR CREDITORS BE ANY CONCERN OF
THEIRS? In my opinion the answer is obvious; it is
not a concern of theirs, other than to SCREW UP the
Gazette family! Ultimately, though, the judge in the
case will make the call.
Recent polls indicate the American people are most
concerned with (in order of importance) the economy/jobs, terrorism, the national debt and healthcare.
Who do you think (Clinton or Trump) gives us the
best chance of tackling these issues successfully?
Which candidate do you hear addressing these problems the most, or at all?
What Now, Folks?
Karl Rove, John McCain, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck,
George Will, Mitch McConnell, Bill Kristol (editor,
of Weekly Standard), Ben Sasse, (Republican Ne-
"Loving God...
Loving Others"
I have scoured transcripts of campaign speeches by
Hillary and all I’ve seen is general rhetoric skimming
over all kinds of touchy-feely stuff. Even though Donald isn’t the best at articulating, he at least brings these
topics up with full force, leaving no doubt as to his intentions and the importance of tackling the problems
Americans are most concerned with.
Me says, let’s get behind Donald, no matter how we
feel about him. This isn’t a personality contest, it’s a
contest to see who can turn our nation around!

I recently spoke to the gentleman who used to work
directly for Trump who was the subject of a Gazette
article in February. I asked him if the Donald we see
on television is the same Donald he saw behind his
desk, in meetings, otherwise conducting business. He
said something along the lines of “absolutely not!” He
indicated that behind closed doors, Trump is very
businesslike, organized, delegates well, listens to his
people, holds others accountable, and felt he would
do a good job as president.

some of the things he says, but he would be MUCH

Hi Doug, So sorry to hear about your financial woes. Don’t
think of your self as a failed business man though. Think of
yourself as a victim of the times & also a survivor.
Now as to the gender situation in public restrooms. Here is
my solution. I think if you are under the age of accountability or say 15, you should be able to use any restroom
you want but would prefer that you use the gender described
rest room that you are dressed for. Once you receive your
driver’s license, or become 16, then you would have to use
the bath room that your driver›s license described you ask. If
your license says male then you have to use the male restroom. Policemen could ask to see your identification if they
expect foul play. Cheers, Dennis

Gazette Editor
Commando Military Surplus
J
oe Gomez of Commando Military Surplus could easily claim a slogan
from a clothing line he carries in the store: “Relentlessly patriotic.”
The Newhall store he and his wife Angelica took over last summer has a
single, focused mission: Take care of men and women of the military. A
10-year veteran himself, and after 25 years in the L.A. Police Department
Reserve Corps, Joe uses the business to fund
veterans’ causes, Junior ROTC programs, and
provide assistance to combat-wounded veterans.
One of the means for doing that is to carry Nine
Line Apparel, a company founded by two brothers, both Army officers, advocating for “military,
veterans and patriotic Americans,” according to
the website. Shirts bear slogans such as “Family, Faith, Friends, Flag, Firearms” and “Don’t
Tread on Me.”
“A ‘9 Line’ in combat is like calling for 9-1-1. If
a soldier’s been wounded and he’s down, we say
it’s a 9 Line,” Joe explained. “We’re very proud,
because we’ve been leading the West Coast in
(Nine Line) apparel sales in raising money for
them. The clothing has patriotic messaging on
it, but it’s more than that. Every soldier who
comes in here, they know what a 9 Line is and
they know they’re helping their brothers and sisters in combat.”
Commando Military Surplus is the Bronze Star Sponsor of the Nine Line Run for the Wounded race in
Savannah, Georgia on Armed Forces Day, May 21,
2016, and two of the store’s representatives will participate, including Joe. They are playing a pivotal part
in raising money for the cause, supporting a specific
combat wounded veteran who lost both legs and one
arm in Afghanistan in September 2011.
“Our mission is to build SFC Aaron Causey a 100 percent handicapped-accessible home,” Joe says.
Commando is one of the oldest Army surplus stores
in Southern California. It opened in 1980. Now it offers more than the usual low-cost military gear; there
are camping supplies, emergency food and water products, and they are adding disaster preparedness and
survival merchandise.
Pictured above (L to R): Commando owner Joe Gomez, Nine
Line’s Director of Outreach Programs Ashli Clubine, and Nine

Line founder Danny Merritt.
Joe and Angelica employ veterans at the 650-square-foot store, including the
assistant manager, who completed a tour in Afghanistan. They also have a
donation box there for the Killed in Action Honor Flag Foundation.

“When customers say ‘keep the change,’ we ask them to just put it in the
Honor Flag box,” Joe says. “We’re members of that organization. When a
veteran is killed, their family gets about 21 days to exit the base; the government ends its contact with them. The Killed in Action Honor Foundation
helps bridge that gap. They provide counseling and follow-up contact with
the family after their loved one’s been buried.”
the veterans realize this is being run by vets,” Joe
Gomez says. “It’s like a place they can come home to.”

Steve Petzold Gets Rejected
A
s a Signal subscriber, Steve Petzold saw an item announcing a 25th Congressional District candidate debate on May 4 at William S. Hart Park
and Museum and that 50 lucky people would be able to log on and secure
two tickets apiece. Being interested in such matters, Petzold logged in, got a
confirmation and invited his daughter to join him.
Then he got a call Monday around 3 p.m. from Russ Briley,
The Signal’s executive vice president of community relations
& audience development, informing Petzold he would not be
welcome because two years ago, at a city council candidate
forum held at The Signal, Petzold took photos of the event
and posted them on social media.
“I don’t remember doing that,” Petzold said later. “I barely
remember being there.”
Taken aback, Petzold said he requested to see the photos he
took and posted because he couldn’t find them himself. He
said Briley couldn’t produce them and spoke sternly to him
(Briley didn’t return a phone call seeking comment).
He isn’t sure why he was barred, but he has some guesses: He
has called upon The Signal to drop its lawsuit against Gazette publisher Doug
Sutton; he is fighting Measure E, a $230 million bond issue that would benefit
College of the Canyons, and he has been rebuffed by The Signal editorial
board about presenting something opposing Measure E after pro-Measure E
officials were allowed to make a presentation.
A day later, Petzold was “very pissed off at this point,” he says. So, he took to
Facebook and started a string that now has more than 100 posts. Most were
supportive.
“Wow. A little too ‘mighty,’ in my humble opinion, for the
local newspaper to be so restrictive about who can attend
and cover an event,” Helen Harwood wrote.
“We stand with Petz. We need more people like him in this
community that pay attention,” wrote Larry McClements.
Lou Vince, a Democrat running in the 25th District, offered
to bring Petzold as his guest and said he would not participate if Petzold couldn’t attend.
Not everyone completely sided with Petzold. Todd R. Wilson wrote, “If he attended an event previously and was told
‘no photos’ and he took a photo in violation of the rules,
then, well, he doesn’t get a pass back. The concept of ‘no
photos’ seems a bit of a stretch but it’s their event, they make
the rules.”
As for Petzold, he was so angered by the snub, he asked Briley, “Are you going to cancel my subscription now or do I have to call back?”
Briley canceled it on the spot and seemed pleased to do it, Petzold said.

Triumph Foundation Exceeds
Expectations at Sporting Event
By Janet Yslas
T
his past weekend, Santa Claritabased Triumph Foundation hosted the fifth annual Wheelchair Sports
Festival at the Sports Complex with
athletes and spectators coming from
as far away as San Diego—and even
one from Colorado!
Canoga Park both days and has
been paralyzed for many years, was
a first-timer. He won Athlete of the
Year and signed up to play for a competitive wheelchair rugby team. Goal
met!
Hockey, basketball, rugby, handcycling, racquetball, scuba, and
WCMX were just some of the activities offered.
New to the festival was scuba
and wheelchair motocross. Scuba,
put on by Diveheart, allowed wheelchair users to get in the pool and
experience swimming underwater.
WCMX had wheelchair users “skating,” dropping-in, grinding and
showing off their stunt skills along
with kids from this community who
had no idea what they would get to
witness when they came to the skate
park. Goal met!
Several seasoned players and Triumph ambassadors played and
coached various sports, but for many
this was their first time experiencing
anything like it. One young man,
Louie, who traveled by train from
Dozens of vendors and sponsors participated in the festival, most
of whom relate to the wheelchair
community, providing services and
products unique to them, including
wheelchair camping. Goal met!
Nearly 1,000 people attended the
two-day event. The goal is to introduce wheelchair sports to more people, increase inclusiveness and awareness of people living with disabilities
in the community, and to have fun.
Finish the Ride Event Draws
Hundreds of Riders and Spectators
T
he Santa Clarita based Forged by
Fire Foundation joined Streets
Are for Everyone last week, raising
money for both of the non-profit
groups with an all-day mixed-athletic
event. One of their chief goals was
to raise awareness about the need for
drivers to practice safe driving on the
streets with cyclists.
The 1st Annual Finish the Ride Santa Clarita Ride, Run, Walk, ‘N Roll
brought together 350 participants,
who completed 5K, 10K and half
marathon runs or one of the two bike
rides – one which was 25 miles and
the other a 62-mile ride. There was
also a 2K family fun walk in remembrance of those who had passed away.
Santa Clarita City Councilman Dante
Acosta led the walk in remembrance
of his son, Specialist Rudy Acosta
who was killed in action in Afghanistan on March 19, 2011.
“The success of this first-year event
proves the popularity of mixed-athletic events and solidifies Santa Clarita
as one of the most generous, charitable communities in the state,” said
Kevin D. Korenthal, co-host of the
event and founder of the Forged by
Fire Foundation.
He went on to say that the tremendous community support for safer
streets for pedestrians and cyclists in
the Santa Clarita Valley is one of several key reasons folks were motivated
to sign-up.
“Whether it was long distance cyclists or families who participated
in the walk of remembrance around
Heritage Park, those who participated were there not just to participate
athletically, but to support two great
causes.”
Finish The Ride was originally conceived by Damian Kevitt, a Los Angeles resident who was the victim of
a hit and run collision. Kevitt and
his wife were riding their bikes near
Griffith Park in mid-2013 when he
was struck from behind, dragged under the vehicle onto the 5 Freeway and
left for dead. His story and positive attitude attracted significant media attention and community support. During his recovery, Kevitt vowed to get
back on the bike and finish the ride he
started that day in Griffith Park.
Kevin D. Korenthal, a 33-year resident of Santa Clarita was hit head-on
by a distracted driver in the canyons
above Santa Clarita while riding his
bike on December 22, 2012. Korenthal’s recovery from numerous broken bones and the positive attitude he
maintained motivated him to start the
Forged by Fire Foundation, the goal
of which is to share the attitude, activities and product/service providers
that offer the best opportunities for recovery from traumatic injury and diseases such as cancer. Finish The Ride
will hold its next event in Woodley
Park on December 11, 2016. To learn
more, visit Finishtheride.org.

Triumph depends on volunteers. With the growth of the size
of this event, the need for additional
volunteers grew too. About 100 volunteers made things run smoothly. Sherry Christiansen headed up
the concession stand, which fed
lunch and snacks to the attendees.
“I love God, I love cooking, baking, and serving others,” Christiansen said. “Triumph was the perfect
fit for my skills and my passion for
people. The sports festival brings out
such happy faces, seeing people try
things for the first time and their joy
at accomplishing it. This year I met
George, who had some problems but
he pushed through them and had a
great time.”
Goal met!
Triumph›s theme is Getting Better
Everyday. And it seems that everyone involved is getting better every
day, in every way.
Nothing inspires this writer more
than this annual event. These people
live life to the fullest, not letting a
wheelchair get in their way. They see
their obstacles as challenges to be
conquered. Goal met!

It is the range of sizes, styles, prints
and fabrics that stands out, says owner Esther Kim.
“We have a variety of medical uniforms. We have men’s uniforms and
lab coats, tall and petite,” Kim says.
“Exciting materials, comfortable to
wear.”
There are 40 types of uniforms at
the store. Many of Uniformland’s

What is True
Diversification?
13
Now and Then:
Taste of the Town
By Linda Pedersen
Contributor
By Arif M. Halaby, CEP
Contributor
H
ave you thought to yourself that you may have
all of your eggs in one basket? When it comes
to retirement account assets, you may be right. If
you have all of your accounts in the stock market
and it goes down, you may lose your ability to retire the way you had planned. For a growing number of people, the loss of peace of mind is cause
enough to reexamine where your nest egg is currently held.
Diversification is not sitting in a different seat on
the same bus. Instead, it is having some of your
money in an entirely different financial vehicle that
fits your needs. Everyone is happy and believes
they are a “winner” when they take a gamble and
win. Few people admit when they have lost during
their time in Las Vegas. But you know that those
big hotels and casinos were not built because people are winning more than they are losing. Who do
you think pays all those bonuses to the workers on
Wall Street?
If the market is on a high and you are ready to
retire, it can instill a false sense of confidence in
you, especially in relation to how much money you
can spend each month. But it can be much worse
than you even imagine. If, during the early years
of retirement, you believe the market will achieve
a particular rate of return – perhaps one that is unrealistic – you may be inclined to spend more that
month or year. You might even splurge on a certain item, expecting to recoup that expense in short
order. So, let’s say you spend $50,000 on a home
remodel or buy an RV – that money you spend is
money you will never get back. In fact, over the
course of one’s normal retirement life, that $70,000
expense could have been as much as $250,000 in
lost potential savings when you add in growth opportunity over the subsequent 25-30 years. This illustrates the power of compounded interest when
it works in your favor!
Another important consideration is making sure
the percentage you withdraw each year is a sustainable figure. In the nearly 20 years of my financial
practice, experts have used numbers like 6 percent,
5 percent and 4 percent, totals they claimed a person can withdraw from retirement savings each
year and still have enough to live on for the rest
of that individual’s life and the life of a surviving
spouse. Can you see the problem here? The number has changed, seemingly out of our favor. If a
retiree played under the “old” set of rules that said
it was okay to withdraw 6 percent per year (which
is $6,000 withdrawn for every $100,000 you have
saved), then you may have reduced your savings
significantly when the market lost more than 50
percent of its value (not once, but twice since the
year 2000). If you had all of your savings in the
market, there is a great likelihood that you would
run out of money years sooner than you had
planned. And really, who wants to go back to work
at age 80?
For some, the old way of diversification meant losing money in more than one place. True diversification should include safety. For some, that means
not having all your eggs in one basket.

Executive director of the Child & Family Center

Cheryl Jones, joined Laina and Ginger as they
listened to the ever-changing weather predictions.
Foundation board member Cheri Fleming and husband Don dined with the aptly-named Channel 7
weatherman, Dallas Raines, on Saturday evening
and a popular topic on the evening menu was the
weather – which even Dallas couldn’t guarantee.
But the clouds that hovered over the Mann Biomedical Park earlier in the week parted as Sunday
morning dawned, and the party was on!
The Child & Family Auxiliary members are also
a presence on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
They are the ones who help with the silent auction

with signage on Saturday, then arrive at the park
at 7:30 Sunday morning to wipe down the tables,
add tablecloths, and wrap the umbrella poles with
ivy and flowers. Joan and Gary Cohen have the
monumental task of leading the last-minute decorating task, which often ends just minutes before

t has been dubbed by many as “The Best Party
in the Santa Clarita Valley,” but in the days leading up to the May 1 event, chairs Laina McFerran
and Ginger LaVang were wondering if rain would
spoil the 28th annual Child & Family Center’s fundraising event.
While the responsibility for pulling off the multifaceted event weighed heavily on the shoulders of
Laina and Ginger, the co-chairs readily admit that
the generous support of the business sponsors, the
50-plus restaurant owners and caterers, and the
hundreds of work hours put in by the center’s volunteers are what put the Taste of
the Town over the top.
“Sweat equity” is a phrase that
aptly describes the behind-thescenes work that goes into putting on this event – from gathering items for the silent and live
auctions to setting up tables, umbrellas, and fences the day before
and adding the decorative touches that enhance the atmosphere.
As many long-time Santa Clarita residents may know,
Liz Seipel is one of the co-founders of the Child & Family Center and served as its leader for 32 years. Even
though she retired a few years ago, she continues to be a
driving force in the organization, both as a resource advisor or a hard-working volunteer.
Whenever an obstacle or an unexpected problem arises during
the planning and execution of
Taste of the Town, the volunteers all know they can turn to
Cheryl Jones and she will have a

COC Suicide Prevention and Awareness Event
A
n annual event at College of the Canyons aims
to bring more awareness to the community
about the issue of suicide. Called “Shine a Light,”
it is designed to provide students and community
members with access to mental health resources,
while bringing attention to the number of college
students who die by suicide each year.
Kevin Berthia, a suicide survivor and suicide prevention advocate, will deliver his keynote speech,
“The Impact of Listening,” from 2-3:30 p.m. on
Wednesday, May 11, in the West PE gymnasium.
Berthia’s presentation will focus on encouraging
people to talk through their problems rather than
think about ending their lives.
As a visual representation of the social issue of suicide, the Honor Grove will also be filled with 1,100
paper lanterns — each representing a college student
who has lost his or her life to suicide in the United
States during the past year. At 5 p.m. on the evening of May 10, those lanterns will be illuminated
and left on display through the night to provide students, college staff and community members with a
thought-provoking visual representation.
Staff members from the college’s Student Health &
Wellness Center and other local mental health agencies will attend the event to distribute information
about suicide prevention/awareness, coping with
depression, and how to access other key mental
health care resources, both on campus and in the
community.
On both days from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., mental health
providers will be outside at the campus’ flagpole to
provide resources and support. Flashlights with the
National Suicide Lifeline will also be distributed.
These events are funded by grants provided by the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, a division of the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services. For more information,

Clothing Line to Benefit
Victims of Human Trafficking
by Kimberly Beers and
Andrew Menjivar
S
anta Clarita residents Karina
McAhren and Christina Vaichus
launched a clothing line designed to
bring awareness to human trafficking
and hope to one day use the line to employ former victims.
“Twenty-seven million. That is how
many men, women, and children
worldwide have been estimated to be
a victim of human trafficking,” say the
young entrepreneurs. “Many people
are unaware that slavery still exists and
that it’s worse than ever before.”
The Santa Clarita based company, Citizen & Darling, donates 20 percent of
the proceeds to organizations that fight
for human trafficking victims and use
the rest to help build their company
that they hope will one day employ and
support those victims.
“We are excited to use fashion to help
victims and bring awareness,” says Vaichus. “It’s an opportunity to be a voice
for the voiceless.”
Their vision is to one day provide basic needs and career opportunities and
restore emotional and mental health to
those coming out of the trafficking industry.
“The end game is to have a full clothing
line that is sophisticated, sweatshopfree and American made,” says Vaichus. “We’d like to have an aftercare
program where we’re teaching trafficking victims a job, giving them opportunities, and allowing them to start a new
life.”
McAhren, a graduate of the Fashion
institute of Los Angeles, or FIDM, is
also a wife and a working mother of
three. Vaichus, a newlywed and an aspiring psychologist with a background
in philanthropy, works two jobs in addition to the work that goes into starting a company from the ground up.
Both draw inspiration and determination from their Christian faith and say
an aftercare program could be a way
for victims to renew their identities after the trauma that comes with being a
sex slave.
“You’re a citizen to the Kingdom of
God, and you are loved,” says Vaichus.
Citizen & Darling also features children’s T-shirts with the words “wonderfully made” printed across them.
Although a sweet design, McAhren
reminds us that the shirts should also
serve as a reminder that children are
sold into sex slavery across the world
every day.
“The problem is a little bit overwhelming, and I think a lot of people sometimes don’t know how they can help,”
says Vaichus. “So that’s where we want
to come in and provide an opportunity
that’s attainable.”

Metro to Hold Public Meeting
for Draft Expenditure Plan in
Santa Clarita
S
anta Clarita residents are encouraged to offer input at a community
meeting hosted by The Los Angeles
County Metropolitan Transportation
Authority (Metro) on Wednesday,
May 11, 2016 at 5:30 p.m. The public
can weigh in on a draft expenditure
plan that outlines more than $120
billion in transit, highway and local
projects over the next four decades
and would be funded through a potential sales tax ballot measure that
may go before voters on November 8.
The meeting will be held at The Centre, located at 20880 Centre Pointe
Parkway in Santa Clarita.
The ballot measure under consideration would ask voters to increase
the countywide sales tax by a half
cent for 40 years and to continue the
existing Measure R tax. The existing Measure R tax is a half-cent sales
tax for Los Angeles County used to
finance new transportation projects
and programs, and accelerate those
already in the pipeline — for an additional 18 years, both of which would
run through 2057. In total, the 40year plan would fund nearly 40 major highway and transit projects and
another 36 transportation programs
to improve the movement of people,
goods and services.
In addition to new transit and highway projects, the expenditure draft
plan includes commuter rail; transit
operations and projects to keep buses,
trains and facilities in good repair; pedestrian and cycling connections and
funding to support affordable fares
for students, seniors and the disabled.
Santa Clarita residents who attend
the meeting will have a chance to ask
questions about the new measure and
share their thoughts.
“I strongly encourage our residents
to attend the public meeting. The
draft expenditure plan impacts them
directly and is a great opportunity to
provide feedback on L.A. County’s
future transportation plan,” said
Councilmember Marsha McLean.
The full expenditure plan is available
for public review at www.metro.net/
theplan. The public is encouraged
to take a look at the plan, realizing
that it is a working draft document
and subject to change, as the process
goes forward. Residents are also encouraged to provide their feedback by
emailing [email protected].
Public input received will be compiled
and shared with the Metro Board of
Directors as they contemplate a final
expenditure plan and decide in June
whether to put the measure on the
November ballot. For more information about the draft expenditure plan
public meeting, contact Rick Jager

Making the Shift from Employee to Entrepreneur
By Connie Ragen Green
Contributor
R
ecently I spent time with a group of newer entrepreneurs in a workshop setting. I’m a Rotarian (Rotary is an international service organization)
and the conversation turned to the cost of being a
member of this group. One woman said that she had
been told that her local Rotary Club cost about $700
a month to be a part of it, and I reacted strongly to
her statement, clarifying that the dues were about
$300 a year and that the cost of the meal each week
would run somewhere between $8-$30. Then I sat
back as the group discussed the pros and cons of being a member of a non-profit group like Rotary. The
cost appeared to be the first aspect of this that would
make the difference as to whether someone would
even visit a Rotary Club meeting in their local city.
I realized very quickly that I was actually witnessing a conversation about the difference between employees and employers, and what it truly means to
go from being an employee to an entrepreneur. It’s a
mind shift that takes some time, and cannot possibly
occur until you set your intentions and take action
on your goals.
When I left the world of classroom teaching and
working part-time in real estate in 2006, I worked
hard at making the transition from employee to
entrepreneur. Even though I owned my real estate
business, I was far from being entrepreneurial in my
day-to-day activities. The bulk of my income continued to come from teaching, and the employee mentality was a strong one I would have to overcome.
As an employee, I looked to my supervisors and administrators for guidance on what actions to take
each day. I had some say-so as to what I could do
with the children in my classroom, but it had to fit
into the structure of what the school and the school
district has decided. Now don’t get me wrong here; I
had lots of ideas about what would work effectively
in the classroom and wanted to share and implement those ideas with others. But the truth was that
I was not being paid to have what I considered to be
fresh and innovative ideas. No, I was being paid to
follow directions and achieve specific results.
Once I left the classroom I began to see things very
differently. Soon I was thinking of myself as a creative thinker and everything began to shift. Instead
of thinking about how much it would cost for me
to join Rotary and be a part of a worldwide organization that could help more people than I could
even imagine, I jumped in and got to work. And the
interesting thing is that my business took off as a
result of the people I met at Rotary and the shift in
my thinking that occurred as a result.
Do whatever it takes to achieve your goals. Refuse
to continue thinking like an employee who needs
constant instructions and direction as to what to do
in each situation. Make a conscious mind shift from
employee to entrepreneur and jump in with both
feet, open to what is possible in your life and your
business. Networking with other like-minded individuals is a crucial step in this process. You can’t
possibly change without changing your surround-
ings, and that includes the people
along with the scenery. Think
about visiting your local Rotary
Club (they meet on Wednesdays, either for breakfast
or lunch) or other service organization to connect
with the members and see if it’s for you.
Are you an employee who wishes to start a small
business or become an entrepreneur? Or are you an
entrepreneur who wants to help others make that
mind shift to see the world differently and have unlimited possibilities? Please let me know if you have
further questions about anything I have discussed
here.

AB-953
No Reservations for the
Open Dinner Table:
By Jack Hernandez
Contributor
G
overnor Brown signed and passed into law legislation AB953, prohibiting peace officers from racial and identity
profiling effective July 1, 2016. It is apparent profiling exists
in America because of the considerable amount of civil rights,
police misconduct and wrongful death settlements throughout
our nation’s most populous cities. Lt. James, Chief of the Long
Beach Police Department, has stated that racial and identity
profiling does not exist. The city of Rialto completed a study
that validates the benefits of using body cameras on peace officers for policing our communities.
According to Police State Daily, more than $1 trillion has
been settled amongst several police departments across the
United States. Charges of wrongful death and police misconduct based on bias have contributed to significant lawsuits that
impact taxpayers. Los Angeles has paid more than $101 million since 2006; New York, $428 million; Oakland, $74 million since 1990; Philadelphia, $40 million since 2009; Chicago,
$521 million since 2004-2014; Cleveland, $8.2 million; Dallas,
$6.6 million; Denver, $12 million since 2011; Washington, $5.7
million from 2011-2014; and Boston, $36 million since 2010.
In Los Angeles, police killed a National Guard veteran during
an incident that was captured on live TV. A settlement of $10
million was issued to the family of an Oakland man in a case
charging four officers with beating and kidnapping him, and
planting drugs. There is also the killing of Michael Brown, an
African American 18-year-old wearing a hooded sweatshirt, by
a police officer in 2014 in Ferguson, Missouri. According to the
Bureau of Justice, a total of over 26,000 official police brutality
complaints have been documented across our nation. According to these statistics, 1 in 200 police officers are reprimanded
for their misconduct. The evidence shows that misconduct and
inappropriate behavior is practiced within our community police precincts.
The number of incidents and settlements far exceed the cost of
seeking out alternative methods, procedures and training that
will better equip our peace officers to perform their duties in
keeping our communities safe. Lt. Stephen Elliot James from
the Long Beach Police Department says he does not believe
that racial and identity profiling exist in his police department.
The reality is quite the opposite, because biases and prejudice
are part of our culture. It is unfortunate that someone of his
level of responsibility and authority has taken this position.
Local Group Seeks to Unite a
Divided Community
By Anthony Tashjian
Contributor
T
he Santa Clarita Valley Interfaith Council
is on a mission to bring social cohesion
to Santa Clarita, seeking to unite people of
all faiths in order to encourage respectful and
peaceful dialogue. Reverend Lynn Jay from
St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church founded the
Interfaith Council in 1991, where it originally
consisted of a body of members representing
nearly 20 different faiths, always open to atheists as well.
Since its founding, this number has dwindled
because of internal religious conflicts with
some of the original representatives, despite
the united call for multidimensional harmony.
Now fairly inert, the group includes a handful
of Christian members of different denominations, a Buddhist member, and several atheist
members from the Interfaith Council. Tyger
White, the president, is striving to revitalize
the original goal of bringing religious unity
to the Santa Clarita Valley, and according to
White, it all starts at the dinner table.
“We are hosting an interfaith prayer event on
Thursday, May 5 at 6 p.m. at the First Presbyterian Church of Newhall, located at 24317
Newhall Avenue,” she said, extending the invitation to all Santa Clarita residents.
Attendance at this event is modeled on a
premise of respectability and dignity for all —
a recipe that offers an enriching opportunity
for education, a newfound understanding,
and friendship perhaps, for those who wish to
attend.
The legislation against racial and identity profiling has set expectations that obligate peace officers to gather pertinent descriptive information based on their perception of the people
they apprehend. This information will be analyzed and evaluated by the Racial and Identity Profiling Advisory Board created by Kamala Harris, California Attorney General. It appears
that this bill may not be embraced by many police precincts,
and it is important to consider implementing technology that
will ensure proper behaviors are exhibited by our peace officers
in the field.
Many Santa Clarita community members
who welcome the invitation to dinner on
this day expect to “suffer indigestion” from
the controversial Dunamis Group’s Annual
Mayors Prayer Breakfast that same morning
at the Hyatt Regency Valencia. Tyger White
is among the few who are choosing to attend,
despite forewarning about the political nature
of the event and its ties with hatemongering
conservatives.
I think it is vital to give our peace officers the tools to ensure
they are being honest with the processes they are expected to
adhere to. Recording their behavior out in the field can benefit
them in improving their interactions within the community.
The city of Rialto, California outfitted their police officers with
body cameras, which cost $900 per unit. The results of the 70
peace officers wearing cameras produced significant changes
in brutality, which dropped by 60 percent and reduced police
complaints by 88 percent in 2012.
“The Interfaith Council is an inclusive group
that was created to include all faiths, even the
controversial ones,” White said. “In order to
get others to understand our point of view, we
must first seek to understand theirs.”
It is clear that monitoring peace officer behavior will contribute
to their ability to use proper apprehension procedures, gain accurate data and protect our community without bias. Brutality
can no longer be tolerated in our community. We must utilize
pertinent technology that will contribute to correcting behavior
with residents in our community. The cost of purchasing body
cameras will reduce settlement costs from lawsuits. Recording
incidents will contribute to more positive behavior and reduce
complaints against officers, at the same time minimizing brutality in our communities.
White has accepted the invitation to attend
the Prayer Breakfast offered to her by Dunamis President Joe Messina, but clearly notes
that her attendance is in no way an endorsement of anyone’s beliefs.
“I simply believe that peaceful dialogue is one
of the best ways of getting educated and educating others,” White said.
However, a community-wide protest is already
being organized to object to the politicization
of the Mayors Prayer Breakfast’s conservative
ideology cavalierly presented to the community under false pretense of religious unity.
Susan Wachter, of the Interfaith Council,
helped organize a protest of the Dunamis
Group’s Mayors Prayer Breakfast in 2013,
when she felt that their speaker was divisive
and hurtful towards many in the community.
She pleaded with Mayor Bob Kellar at a Santa
Clarita City Council meeting not to go. His
response was, “It saddens me that something
so great has to be so controversial. The National Day of Prayer should be a day that we
throw politics out and we come together as responsible Americans in appreciation for God
Almighty in his leadership and blessing this
country and the people that make it work. …
I want you to know I feel that from my heart.”
Controversy over the Dunamis Group’s annual involvement in this event still lingers in the
Santa Clarita Valley because of their conservative Christian background. Past community
protests raised issues with the continuing use
of “mayor” in the title and the implied violation of the separation of church and state;
others raised issues with the $25-per-plate
event and its Christian financiers’ offensive
keynote speakers.
No stranger to protests in the Santa Clarita
Valley, White said, “I feel that protests are
one way to bring attention to issues. However,
they also cause the people that you are protesting against to become defensive and more entrenched in their positions. Open conversation
is more effective in changing someone’s mind.
In my experience, this is how hard-line thinkers learn to change their minds. You must first
hear them out before they begin to listen.”
Mayor Kellar commented on the issue of politicization regarding the event.
“If there can be a program that we can bring
forward that everybody embraces … that
we can come together on a National Day
of Prayer and celebrate the greatness of this
country without politics, we’ll save politics for
another day, not the National Day of Prayer,”
Mayor Kellar said.
Wachter believes that the Santa Clarita Interfaith Council will provide such an event, as
they have done for many years, at the open
and inclusive dinner table. White, a lover of
food and communal unity, hopes to sit at both
tables for a nice meal and discussion.

California Penal Code 273a
17
By Robin Sandoval
Contributor
Child Endangerment
T
needs to have presented a situation in which the child was likely to suffer such
an injury.
Suffice it to say leaving a baby unattended in an automobile, whether it’s running/not running, or locked/unlocked, likely qualifies as a dangerous situation.
When facing felony charges, the possible penalties include two to six years in
California state prison, a fine of up to $10,000 and/or a minimum of four years
on formal probation. Misdemeanor charges include the possible penalties of up
to six months in county jail, a fine of up to $1,000 and/or informal probation.
he description of 273a PC consists of child endangerment as any instance
in which a person causes or permits a child to suffer unjust physical pain or
mental suffering, willfully causes or permits a child in one’s care to be injured
and/or willfully causes or permits a child to be put in a dangerous situation.
On Friday, April 29, LAPD officers arrested Solomon Allen under suspicion of
child endangerment at a North Hollywood gym. The arrest happened because
the man is suspected of leaving his infant daughter in his running automobile
for 90 minutes while he was inside the gym. The baby was discovered when
someone walked past the suspect’s car. According to the report, police were
notified just before 9 a.m. of a child being left unattended inside a car. The
car was unlocked, and passersby were able to get the baby out and bring it to a
nearby hospital for assessment.
The penalties for PC 273a will depend on the nature of the crime. If the behavior of the person being charged is deemed to have presented the risk of great
bodily harm or death, it’s likely the person will be charged with a felony. If the
situation isn’t deemed to present said risk, the defendant is more likely to be
charged with a misdemeanor.
To be clear, the child doesn’t have to actually suffer great bodily injury or death
for someone to be charged with felony child endangerment. The situation just
Parents leaving their kids in the car is nothing new. Many people have probably
elected to leave a child in the car on more than one occasion when bringing
them inside would be a hassle. The thing is, when most folks leave their kids in
the car, it’s usually for a minute or two at most, and their kids are not infants at
the time. Human beings are fragile, children and infants even more so. Children
are injured, sometimes killed, every year from overheating due to being left in
the car. That’s not to mention the tantalizing target that a running or unlocked
auto can make for a thief. Maybe they’ll steal the car, maybe the kids, maybe
both.
Either way, leaving a child in the car can be illegal, and it’s best not to do it at
all.

Balancing the Mind and
Body of the Elite Athlete
By Keir Chapman, Mr. Sports
Contributor
A
thletics are a combination of physical
prowess, elite body control, and mental
acuity. Due to the image-driven nature of today’s media, however, it seems as though the
physical aspect of sports is the object of everyone’s attention. Because of this, it is easy
to forget that when someone hits a clutch free
throw or sinks a tournament-sealing putt,
it’s not the muscles that matter, but how the
athlete uses them. Mental toughness is not
earned in the gym, but rather on the floor
with regular yoga and meditation practices.
Sheer size and strength are meaningless if
the person who possesses them lacks control.
This is why NBA audiences see burly 7-footers come and go faster than those players can
move their own bodies. However, when athletes add mindful practices such as yoga to
their workouts, they can gain a mastery not
found in traditional conditioning. For example, according to a study by The International Journal of Physical Education, Sports
and Health, yoga contributes to improving
strength by working out muscles that weightlifting often misses. It also aids in balance and
flexibility, which will allow for the largest of
athletes to move their bodies with the precision of someone half their height.
When it comes to the benefits of meditation,
the question on any skeptic’s mind is always,
“How does just sitting with your eyes closed
do anything?” The answer is that meditation
allows a person to quiet an active mind for a
period of time and be in the present moment.
There’s an abundance of benefits that come
from this practice in sports and beyond, but
specifically in the athletic realm, having the
ability to focus only on the task at hand, while
blocking out all noise, pain, and pressure, is
how the average athlete ascends to superstar
status.
Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (Mass General) conducted a study to
see how mindfulness meditation improved a
person’s alpha rhythms in the brain. In sportstalk, alpha waves are what allow an athlete to
manage pain and quiet the mind, no matter
what the situation.
Mass General’s study consisted of 12 healthy
participants, half of whom were instructed
to practice mindfulness meditation for eight
weeks, while the other half were told not to
do so. After the eight-week period concluded,
researchers used tools to precisely monitor
brain function in order to track how well each
participant could adjust their alpha waves
when an area of the body was stimulated. The
researchers found that those who did practice
mindfulness meditation were able to adjust
faster than those who didn’t, bolstering the
idea that meditation strengthens one’s ability
to manage pain and control the body.
Media advertising tends to focus solely on
well-toned muscles in order to move products, but seldom do they convey the fact athletes rely on well-developed, focused brains to
move their bodies. And, while it may be rare
to see the words sports, yoga and meditation
in the same sentence, in 2016 it’s time for us
to change our perception of the ingredients
that make athletes great.

he COC Model United Nations, or COCMUN, team
attended a conference hosted
by UCLA April 14-17, and
came home as one of four colleges to be honored at the event
joining prestigious four-year
institutions such as USC, Stanford and UC Berkeley.
Model United Nations is a

competition that places an
emphasis on diplomacy and
interactive problem solving.
Through courses and competitions offered by the college’s
political science department,
students conduct research on
relevant global issues, enhance
their public speaking skills, and
work to comprehend the essential goals of conflict resolution,
all while simulating the work of
the United Nations and its various agencies.
For the second time in the last
four years, COC was awarded
the Outstanding Large Delegation award. In addition, eight
COC team members won individual awards. Included in that
group are:

Gracie loves people.... she
rolls over on her back for belly
rubs and is a world-class
snuggler! She is quite active
so she enjoys walks and
games of fetch but her main
mission in life is to spend
quality time with her humans.
She’s a smart deaf girl who
knows her commands (sit, stay, come, no....), is schooled in
going potty outside and will blossom even more with additional
bonding and attention. Gracie is a graduate of our Intermediate
Obedience class! She has passed the Canine Good Citizen
test and is eligible for certification.
Gary and Shady are purebred
male black Labrador Retrievers. Gary is three years old,
and Shady is four. They found
themselves in a kill shelter
when their Mom passed away
very suddenly. They have
typical labbie happy temperaments, and are very bonded to
each other. Gary and Shady are trained, housebroken, and
very well behaved. They are a turnkey pair of dogs who really
need a forever home together.
To meet any of these dogs, please fill out an application for adoption:

Wyatt is a deaf four month old
purebred Australian Shepherd.
His mom was red merle and his
dad was a blue merle AS. He
was bred merle to merle,
resulting in congenital
deafness. He came to us
straight from his breeder for
proper placement and a lifetime
safety net, so he's not had a bumpy road or the baggage
that some pups have to endure before coming to us in
rescue. He's a perfect little guy.

Technological Advances in the Auto World
If you’re a techie, you’ve gotta love the annual changes in cars that come
off the line. But if you don’t often buy a new car, you may not ever get to
personally make use of any of them. Luckily, there are a lot of publications that let you sink back and enjoy the detailed descriptions of
advanced technology.
There are upgraded entertainment systems available in 2016 models,
Gorzelany says. High-definition video players and, of course, better sound
come in most of them.
Jim Gorzelany, a contributor to Forbes, gave us a description of the
vehicles currently on the road in an article entitled “The Hottest 2016
New-Car Features.” He says the aim of a lot of the newest technology is
for smoother ride, better handling and improved gas mileage.
It’s a few years down the road, according to the article, though Tesla rolled
out a system for an electric car that keeps it centered in the lane and
changes lanes with a simple tap. BMW has a model of sedan that does the
same thing – it maintains the motion in the center of the lane up to speeds
of 130 mph.
The latest features mean cars are getting into fewer collisions, because
they are able to warn motorists about other vehicles in the way and even
keep a safe distance from them by automatically applying the brakes.
Their navigation systems are improved too. They can get you around
traffic jams and some cars even park themselves.
Can you go into autopilot?
Hopefully, no one in Santa Clarita will be testing that last claim – at least
not on our streets!
