The four likely have some ideas of how they want to do things once they get to Washington. They probably want to get on certain committees or introduce specific pieces of legislation (in fact, Caforio favors a Constitutional amendment striking down the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision; Vince was unable to be reached for comment). Regardless of what they want to do, they will have to find time to do it in between sessions of fundraising. In stories that appeared on “60 Minutes” and “Last Week with John Oliver” two months ago, it was suggested that legislators spend inordinate amounts of time sitting in call centers, dialing phone numbers and asking for money. Both shows revealed congresspersons are expected to spend four hours a day raising money and only two hours a day tending to the business of the House or meeting with constituents. Since federal law forbids soliciting or receiving funds in their offices, legislators walk a few blocks from the Capitol to their party headquarters. A local teacher, musician, sports fan, cyclist, kayaker, fisherman and 24-year resident of Santa Clarita, Rod Bennett died Wednesday afternoon when struck by a car while riding his bicycle on Placerita Canyon Road in Newhall. He was 53. A much-respected and revered band director and math teacher at Arroyo Seco Junior High School, Bennett was an avid jazz fan and an in-demand jazz vibraphonist who also played bass, drums and a wide variety of percussion instruments. He studied music at DePaul University in Chicago, UCLA and London's Royal College of Music, and went on to perform with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the UCLA Wind Ensemble, the UCLA Percussion Ensemble, the UCLA Marching Band, as well as on a cruise ship and with several jazz groups around the Santa Clarita Valley. Bennett met kindred spirit Valerie Pryor in 1985, when both were members of the UCLA Marching Band. They married in 1992. "Rod and I were in the mallet percussion section of the drumline. He played xylophone and I played glockenspiel," said Pryor, now administrative services manager/chief financial officer at Castaic Lake Water Agency. continued on page 3 continued on page 6 Chris resident and well respected school board leader, is the people’s choice for the 38th district in our state assembly!

You sit at a desk … you have a call book, and the call book has sheets of every donor, past donors and their records … and you engage in polite conversation, and then you get to the point, and then you hang up, and then you flip the page to the next donor, and then you make another call, and you continue doing that till you have the resources to get re-elected.” “I think that’s ridiculous,” Moffat said. “I could see myself doing that as much as I can see Donald Trump doing that ... That’s a misuse of time.” And the rooms stink. Many people on the shows say it’s like a sweatshop or a locker room. No matter how safe the seat is (and the 25th district has been solidly Republican since 1993), this is a requirement. And the money raised is not just to get reelected. Parties also expect lawmakers to raise money to pay party dues, between $125,000 and $800,000 according to BuzzFeed; some of that goes to help people in tighter races. All told, according to the Federal Election Commission: House and Senate candidates raised $1.7 bil- lion for the 2014 election. That’s an average of more than $3.6 million per person. “60 Minutes” blames the Citizens United decision in 2010 for opening the floodgates and forcing legislators to raise everincreasing amounts of money. According to Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), Knight’s fundraising efforts jumped from $15,000 in 2013-14 (when he was in the state Senate) to $200,000 in 2015, although Caforio claimed it was closer to $500,000. This is a near-universally hated practice, the shows said. “John Oliver” showed former Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wyo.) speaking about it in 2011, “I felt used when I had to raise money. I was embarrassed. I thought it was ugly. It was demeaning.” Even rookie lawmakers aren’t given a pass. Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.) was in her first committee meeting in 1997 when a staff member pulled her out of the hearing to go and raise money. “How am I going to learn anything?” she asked on C-SPAN in 2014. This is what Knight faces if he’s re-elected, and what the others get to deal with if they unseat Knight. Moffatt doesn’t like it one bit, and said if elected, he refuses to do it. So does Caforio. “I think that’s ridiculous,” Moffatt said. “I could see myself doing that as much as I can see Donald Trump doing that. … That’s a misuse of time.” pull me out. I’m going to perform all my responsibilities of that committee meeting.” One person, Rep. David Jolly (R-Fla.), has put forward a bill that would outlaw lawmakers from having to directly ask for money (only six people have joined Jolly in supporting this bill, called the Stop Act; Caforio said he appreciates Jolly’s effort, but it doesn’t solve the problem). “Unfortunately, this is the way the Congress works, and he is disgusted by it,” Caforio campaign manager Orrin Evans said. For his part, Knight released this statement: “I am proud to represent California’s 25th District in Congress. Fighting for the needs of my constituents will always be my top priority. I am thankful for the support that I receive that allows me to work hard every day to fight for our local priorities.” Moffatt said that perhaps he would be in for a rude awakening if he was elected and forced to do this. Or maybe he – or whoever wins the election – will feel like Jolly does. He told “60 Minutes,” “…(S)itting members of Congress, frankly, I believe, are compromising the dignity of the office they hold by sitting in these sweatshop phone booths calling people asking for money, and their only goal is to get $500 or $1,000 or $2,000 out of the person on the other end of the line. “It’s shameful. It’s beneath the dignity of the office that our voters and our communities entrust us to serve.” Said Caforio: “My staff knows they’re not going to GET DEBT HELP NOW! Call today and ask us how!

Included in that list were student-athletes from all 16 of the college’s intercollegiate athletic programs — and 10 dual-sport athletes. These former Cougars will soon be heading to four-year schools across the nation, including: Boston College, University of Louisville, Gonzaga University, Arizona State University, University of Hawaii Hilo, Illinois State University, Chicago State University, Murray State University, Montana State University, Utah Valley University, St. Mary’s College of California, USC, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine, UC Davis, San Jose State University, San Diego State University and others. “Our athletic programs have established a tradition of excellence and distinguished themselves as some of the finest in the state. That reputation is rooted not only in athletic achievement, but also in what takes place off the field,” said College of the Canyons Chancellor Dr. Dianne Van Hook. “With encouragement from their coaches, our student-athletes excel in the classroom. Because they focus on academics first, they have the opportunity to transfer to four-year universities and pursue their athletic goals at the next level.” The level of academic success achieved by the college’s student-athletes is not limited to the 2015-16 academic year. COC players and teams routinely earn academic accolades. Earlier this semester, the 2015 COC softball team — which posted a team GPA of 3.24 — was named the California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA) Scholar Team Award recipient, representing the highest academic team achievement given annually by the CCCAA. In addition, former standout COC women’s volleyball player, Serena LeDuff, was named a 2014-15 CCCAA Scholar Athlete Award Winner, after maintaining a 3.76 GPA during her two seasons of competition. “The COC Athletics department is routinely among the state leaders in seeing its student-athletes matriculate and transfer to the next level, and that is something we take great pride in,” said COC athletic director, Chuck Lyon. “This group is a shining example of what it means to be a student first, and an athlete second.” Multiple choices this week!

Jun 3 - Jun 9, 2016 continued from front page Bennett A By Arif M. Halaby, CEP Contributor M ost Americans reach retirement age and have some money in a company-sponsored retirement account. Since your income no longer comes from your work and now must come from your assets, you need to keep a few things in mind. First, consider your needs. Do you need to have access to these funds in the next year or two? Do you have enough money for emergencies? Is there a large expense coming up that you may need some of these funds for? Just because the account is in one place now doesn’t mean it can’t be spread out into two or more after you retire. How old are you? The younger you are, the more likely you are to need income for many years to come. This changes some of the old ideas that risk is right for everyone, no matter their personal tolerance. Timing is everything. Secure the most important amount you need, so you do not have to return to work. To roll or not. If you are younger than 59½ years old and need these funds, then you may want to leave some of the money behind in your company retirement plan. If you take the money out of your company plan, then you may not pay any IRS penalties. You will still pay taxes, but not the penalty. Some plans allow you to make at least one withdrawal without the penalty. If the money comes from an IRA, then you may pay a fee. Layer, layer, layer. If you are under the age of 75, then the chances are pretty good you should be planning to need money for at least 20 years. That means having money spread out in at least two, or maybe even three, different accounts is needed. This can help diversify and lessen the risk you may experience. Being flexible is one of the keys to a happy retirement lifestyle. Things change along the way through your retirement journey. We have all made plans in our lives that quickly fall apart. It’s not because we didn’t want them to happen, but because life happens. Make sure you have the ability to move some money from long-term to short-term and from income-producing to lump sum distribution. Who do you want to receive this money and how do you want them to receive it? This may seem like something that you don’t have to worry about for a long time, but a beneficiary option should be made when you open your IRA. Some accounts allow you to determine how often the person is going to receive a payment or the entire account. A revocable living trust is an option some people use to regulate the flow of money to those less mature or capable of handling it at a particular age. Don’t forget the charities and the tax man. Most people meet their CPAs only one time a year. That means it is usually a rushed meeting and one that is not very conducive to creating a plan or a strategy for the coming year. Set up another time to meet after the tax season when you can decide if a charitable contribution is right for you, either during retirement or after you die. Arif M. Halaby is a Certified Estate Planner in the State of California and the President/CEO of Total Financial Solutions, Inc., a financial and insurance services company based in Santa Clarita, California, with offices extending to the San Fernando and Antelope Valleys. t Arroyo Seco, Bennett not only taught math and music, but also mentored young musicians outside of regular classes, hosting a “rock club,” where they could practice in his classroom during lunch and after school. Bennett “was a beloved teacher, mentor and friend to so many at Arroyo Seco,” Principal Rhondi Durand wrote in a statement Wednesday night. Along with music, Bennett was passionate about cycling, both road and mountain biking, and he especially enjoyed riding up steep mountain roads. Placerita Canyon Road between SR-14 and Sand Canyon Road was a favorite stretch to ride. He and Pryor traveled to San Diego May 15 for the start of the 2016 Amgen Tour of California cycle race, which rolled through Santa Clarita the next day. Bennett’s love of cycling extended to other outdoor sports, especially kayaking. He was an enthusiastic waterman who enjoyed catching large yellowtail, white sea bass, and large rooster fish while paddling his solo craft off the Southern California coast. He also enjoyed spectator sports like football (a big Cincinnati Bengals fan), baseball (long-suffering Chicago Cubs fan), and any sport involving a team from UCLA. Yet, Bennett was a well-rounded character who enjoyed travelling, gardening, cooking and a good glass of wine just as much as a gig or a game. Roderick Travis Bennett was born September 18, 1962, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana. He enrolled at DePaul University in Chicago in 1980 (BFA, 1984), then UCLA in 1984 (MFA, 1988) and finally London’s College of Music (1988). Bennett earned his teaching credential in 1995 and taught at Brainard Elementary School in Lake View Terrace from 1995-1997, then sixth grade at Mt. Gleason Middle School in Sunland- Tujunga from 1997-1999. A Hart District instructor since 1999, Bennett taught 7th and 8th grade math at Arroyo Seco for 16 years, from 19992015, and began his dream gig teaching band at Arroyo Seco just this year. News of Bennett’s death spread fast via Santa Clarita and Los Angeles news outlets Wednesday evening, and fellow musicians, teachers and students flooded social media in the hours and days that followed, expressing their grief and sharing memories of a life well-lived and well-loved. “Today was the worst day of school,” Arroyo Seco student Nadia Zaytoon commented on her Facebook Thursday, echoing the sentiments of many of her peers. “Mr. Bennett is my percussion teacher. (He) will be missed. He was an amazing person. May the force be with you and your family. My prayers go to all his friends and family. He will always be part of the Arroyo Seco family. Love you, Mr. Bennett. Rest in peace.” There were numerous other Facebook comments posted last week. “Rod Bennett was a good friend and band mate,” Hagen Jazz bandleader Jim Hagen wrote on his Facebook. “I learned a lot about jazz from him because he was an excellent musician. Over the years, we played countless gigs together, and even had a couple of gigs planned for next week.” Hagen Jazz was recording a new album; they had completed four tracks before Bennett’s death. Bennett also appeared on the group’s previous album in 2013. “Thank you everyone for your condolences and kind words,” Pryor wrote on her Facebook Thursday morning. “I appreciate it. He will be missed by me and the entire community.” Rod’s widow was also a bike enthusiast. She will join a “Silent Ride” on Saturday, June 11 which was organized by Paul Chia, owner of CBS Cycling. The public is invited to ride, beginning at 8:30 a.m. at Placerita Junior High School. Details are located on the CBS Cycling Crew Facebook page. “Rod and I had a wonderful marriage,” Pryor said. “He was always thoughtful and loving and supportive. We enjoyed our adventures and lived life to the fullest. He was my best friend. He was always there for me. We enjoyed every day together. Every day when we got home from work, we sat and discussed our days. He was never too tired or stressed to ask about me and my day.” In addition to his wife, Valerie Pryor, Bennett was preceded in death by his father, Travis Hartley Bennett, and is survived by his mother, Lois Ann Bennett (Miller), sister Deborah Bennett, brotherin-law David Dempsey and niece Trina Dempsey, all residents of New York City. A memorial service for Bennett is set for Thursday, June 9 at Eternal Valley Memorial Park in Newhall starting at 1 p.m. His family requests that in lieu of flowers or gifts, donations be made to the Santa Clarita Valley Food Pantry in the names of Rod Bennett and Val Pryor.

The articles founding the church were filed May 31, 1891. A few months later, in October, a structure with a tall steeple resembling a New England church was christened. That first meeting had 16 members. The congregation’s founder, F.D. Seward, started preaching in the SCV in the 1880s, traveling on horseback from the oil fields of Pico Canyon all the way out to the mines of Acton. • Lots of postal notes. First, the SCV’s FIRST post office was in Ravenna, a long-forgotten town between Acton and Agua Dulce. First postmaster was George Gleason. George quit after being paid 57 cents for five months’ pay. • Then, in 1874, the Newhall post office was established where Eternal Valley is today. It wasn’t called Newhall because there wasn’t a Newhall. It was called Petroliopolis. That’s because Star Oil was next door. • THEN, in 1877, the first Newhall post office was founded at George Campton’s General Store. George lost his job when Grover Cleveland was elected. George Larkey, a Democrat, took over the job because, then, it was a political appointment. • One more postage story? Surrey was the turn-ofthe-century community that literally shared the same sidewalk with Saugus. The reason why mail went to Surrey instead of Saugus was due to penmanship. A postal executive demanded that Saugus come up with a new name. Why? A lot of mail intended for Sanger, Calif. was mistakenly delivered to Saugus, and vice versa. If you write out the two towns’ names in long hand, you’ll see why... • Happy Birthday to Newhall Land. On June 1, 1883, The Newhall Land & Farming Co. was founded by the widow of Henry Mayo Newhall and his five sons (two were hers). 90 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1926 ... • Local lawmen captured a teamster speeding through Newhall in a big rig of the day. The driver had no license, no registration, no ID. He was carrying several hundred thousand dollars of high-end champagne and liqueur. The load was confiscated. The driver was held on $1,000 bail (cost of two houses then). A couple hours later, a famous Beverly Hills attorney showed up to pay the fine. Then, some high end cops from L.A. showed up to confiscate the booze “for evidence.” Rumor had it the alcohol ended up at L.A. Mayor George Cryer’s house. • Counting that $1,000 for the champagne case, no pun intended, Judge A.B. Perkins collected $1,800 in fines for the month of May. 80 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1936 ... • A Mexican national died alone and in horrific fashion. He had slipped trying to cut in front of a train and had both a leg and arm severed. He bled to death, leaving no identification. • The SCV’s biggest developer was Henry King. He built two houses in the first part of 1926 — both at the corner of 13th and Walnut. • One MUST be careful with post hole diggers. Rancher Carl Ginerich missed the dirt and hit his foot, putting a circular and large hole through the middle of his foot. Took months to heal. 70 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1946 ... • You’re not going to believe this. The end of May, the high — the HIGH — at night was 30 degrees. We Buzz Barton was the most famous child star in the world in 1926. The Newhall boy’s real name was Billy Lamoreaux. You’d think his agent could have gotten him a better part. Ninety years ago this week, Newhall Elementary staged the play “Robin Hood.” Way down in the credits was Billy. He played “The Hobby Horse.” had rain and a bit of a snow dusting close to June. The rain was blamed for three deaths and 23 injuries on the local highways. • “Big” Bill Bonelli was chairman of the State Board of Equalization. He noted that for the first time in state history, the gas tax topped the $6 million mark for a single month. Bonelli would end up in a huge feud with the governor and L.A. Times when he caught them in a corrupt real estate/liquor scam. The millionaire rancher hid in Mexico for several years, flying back to the SCV and his other massive holdings. He frequently taunted his political foes by sending them postcards from his scenic trips. • Evangeline Frew, matriarch of the famous clan, died on this date. She married Tom Frew I in 1890. The couple moved to Newhall in 1900 where a long line of Frews followed. The Frew family operated a blacksmith/iron works shop here until the 1970s. Evangeline was born June 13, 1871. 60 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1956 ... • I still miss living in Placerita Canyon. It wasn’t that long ago when they would use a mixture of oil and water on my road to keep down the dust. On this date in 1956, they dedicated the new road into the Placerita park entrance. Yup. It had yet to be oiled. • Perfecto Aguas’ driving wasn’t exactly — er — perfecto. The teamster lost control of his truck on the old Highway 99 downgrade. It flipped, sending 40,000 pounds of Colombian coffee on the interstate. Perfecto escaped without injury. • Don’t think they have this anymore. But the tail end of May was Rural Mail Box Improvement Week. Thought you might want to mark your calendars for next year… A HALF CENTURY AGO THIS WEEK, 1966 ... • Geez, this is a great country. Canyon Country shoe store manager Dick Shacknies got a letter from Leonard Lancaster. Leonard was serving a stint in Vietnam. He mailed a letter to Shacknies, along with a $20 check, to buy a decent pair of shoes and a half dozen pairs of socks. Shacknies returned the check to Leonard’s parents and shipped out his best pair of shoes — along with the socks — to Lancaster all the way to Vietnam. • May 25th, the Mustang Drive-In held its grand opening. Built by Poynter-Wirthwein Theaters of Beverly Hills, the outdoor show cost $400,000 to build. Admission price was $1.25 for adults, 50 cents for kids and non-car-driving children were free. OK. Ready for the ultimate cocktail party trivia? The first bill shown there? I’ll bet not even Tony Newhall remembers. It was “Last of the Secret Agents” and “Night of the Grizzly,” with Clint Walker. One of my all-time favorite sub-B movies... • Meanwhile, the old Corral Drive-in, up San Francisquito Canyon, which was calling itself the Valencia Drive-in briefly, had their own spy bill, featuring “The Spy Who Came in From The Cold” and “Yellow Rolls Royce.” • Ronald Reagan made yet another appearance in the SCV and again failed to make any headlines. Running for governor, he was stumping in North Oaks Shopping Center. The local paper relegated a small tidbit on page 3 and no photo. 40 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1976 ... • Boy howdy, this one is TRULY for you old-time SCVians. Cecil Sims retired 40 years ago after starting with the school in 1946. The wispy thin civics teacher was famous for his smiling demeanor and his legendary ranking of students. Remember “Good Child/ Bad Child?” He organized the first class curriculums (of the original eight teachers, Sims was the only one who had ever taught high school). For you post-moderns, here’s something that will link you with living history. Every time you sing the alma mater (“All hail Hart High, all hail to thee...”) think of Mr. Sims. He wrote it. Sims was the consummate joker and my alltime favorite quote of his came with his trademark snicker. When asked about his reaction to hearing his work sung at every sporting event, Sims grinned: “I can’t explain how I feel when the band plays it.” Of course, most people will never know how Sims worked behind the scenes on things never listed in a resume or obituary. Several times, he talked kids out of suicide, including one ex-Hart student/Marine. The soldier turned the gun on Sims. Facing the barrel of a .45, Sims used three little words we all should use more: “I love you.” The distraught soldier put the gun down. After some psychiatric help, the kid went on to live a productive life. 30 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1986 ... • Paula and Clem Cox made a daring rescue. They pulled a coyote pup from their swimming pool. Paula ended up drying the shivering creature with a blow dryer and feeding it pork chops. The pup was too young to return to the wild and a few days later, passed it along to a wild animal sanctuary in Acton. Unfortunately, word of their kindness did not spread throughout the coyote community. Two days later, a coyote made off with one of their ewes from their Sand Canyon ranch. • College of the Canyons beat Rancho Santiago 7-5 to win the state junior college baseball title. It was the third state title for the Cougars. • Saugus resident Tom Powell was arraigned in a local courtroom for attempted murder. The weapon? His RV. Powell had scraped the roof of his motor home on the overhang of the Alta Dena Dairy, got into an argument with the owner, then ran him over. He was also charged with felony hit-and-run driving. It gets better. He was also charged with eluding officers in a “high-speed chase.” Yup. In a motor home.

This is to have succeeded. --Ralph Waldo Emerson These are such brilliant words. Success, in Mr. Emerson’s view, is not about achieving a high social status, job title or income, but being a person of value in a community. This definition of success, grounded in a sweet and gentle humanism, can be achieved by anyone, regardless of his or her standing in the world. But the question is worth asking: As these words were written in the 19th century, is this view common among my generation, the millennials? Research indicates that the answer is no. According to a study by university faculty members and published by the American Psychological Association, young people today are more likely to value money, image, and fame over helping the community. The study drew its conclusions from decades’ worth of survey data, dating back to 1966, where youths were asked about their perspectives on life. The findings show that millennials operate far from Emerson’s vision, in favor of a more narcissistic mode of living. Results show a generation more focused on its status in society than on contributing to the common good. Inevitably, one wonders why this situation exists. Perhaps our culture’s obsession with the rich and famous is to blame, or maybe it’s due to our hyperfocus on individualism. Precise answers are probably difficult to make. What’s certain, though, is that a worldview where wealth and fame are the most important aspirations is limited and lacking in warmth. I think about the best moments in my life, and none of them have to do with money or status. Instead, they involve the animal warmth of other human beings, whether they are of a great night with family, a march for a political cause, or a scintillating classroom debate at university. To put it in another way, they involve passionate participation Will Measure E Send A Shockwave Across California? in communities, both large and small. This is why I believe Emerson’s vision of success — being a valued and active member of a community — is so much better than the shallow ideas that dominate the minds of millennials today. And so the question remains: How can we reorient our culture to move my generation closer to Emerson’s side of the equation? To do this, I believe several arenas of American life will have to change, starting with the arts. Filmmakers, novelists, and musicians today consistently make work celebrating the rich and powerful. These projects define success as reaching the peak of one’s profession and gaining the admiration of the masses around you. It will be critical for artists to, instead, produce work that promotes Emerson’s vision of success — that honors the human treasures in our communities. We need novels that depict the schoolteachers who treat the valedictorian and the outcast with equal dignity. We need films that show the town mayor who bucks the local elite to protect the vulnerable. And songs that memorialize the heroic parent who heals the wounds of a traumatized child. These works would broaden young people’s definition of success and give them other role models to aspire to, besides the rich and powerful. Change will also have to take place in education. Today, parents put absurd pressures on their children to gain acceptance into the top schools in the world. It’s Ivy League, UC, or bust. But this only reinforces the idea that reaching a place of status should be a young person’s top goal. While parents should always stress the importance of college to their kids, they must not make getting into a top school the number one priority. Rather, they should seek to instill in their children a strong sense of values, pride in their identities, and an appreciation of beauty and grace. All actions would be oriented around the goal of developing their children into people of value, rather than merely kids with long resumes. Undoubtedly, even more will have to be done to change the status quo, but fixing these two areas will be a good start. Here’s hoping someday millennials will learn to forget the rat race and realize that there are many ways to live a great life and that none of them are wrong. **The Views and Opinions expressed in these columns are those of the writer, not necessarily those of Valley Publications/Santa Clarita Gazette.** M ake no mistake about it. Measure E will send a message across our state on the morning of June 8. Unbeknownst to many, the Santa Clarita Valley is being closely monitored by taxpayer advocate organizations and the growing Prop 39 bond industry. Both sides want to see if just a little push back from regular citizens without meaningful financial resource can stop a juggernaut public agency like College of the Canyons from ambushing taxpayers for the third time in 15 years. We have already learned a lot, which will help other taxpayers who choose to stand up and fight special interests like unions and contractors who aren’t as interested in education as they are in “edu cash in on.” What has become clear and that ought to scare all residents in the COC college district is that the accumulation of bond debt and a permanent building program is COC’s business model. The administration and Board of Trustees have adopted an “if we build it they will come” attitude without regard to scope of programs or scale, relative to district population. Nearly 50 percent of students at COC are commuters, categorized as out of district by COC in its 2015-2016 Fact Book. It is time for the district voters to exercise a tiny bit of discipline and stop the madness. The college district already owes nearly $240 million (Measures C and M), with dedicated debt service payments exceeding $400 million dollars. Should Measure E pass we will owe nearly $470 million with secured debt service payment of nearly one billion dollars. You should be outraged. The COC campus in Valencia is beautiful; unfortunately, the foundation sits on a mountain of unseen debt. Please tell your family friends and neighbors to vote No on Measure E. Let us take the time to get this decision right. For the best information heading into Tuesday’s election, monitor NoCOCTax. com or feel free to call me directly at 661609-1739. In the best interest of generations to come, please vote no on Tax Bond Measure E! Lean to the Left We’re all Gonna Look like Carnies By Sylvia Turner Contributor T his week, Gov. Jerry Brown endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. Who did you expect him to endorse?! Anyone in favor of Hillary for president was doubly pleased this week to see Trump’s new zombie on the campaign trail (meaning she just won’t die): Sarah Hoof-in-Mouth Palin. That’s another no-brainer – no, I don’t mean inviting her to join Trump on the trail … I mean she, as a human being, is a no-brainer. A complete idiot. An article by Janet Allon on Alternet made me laugh out loud this week with her “5 Insane Right-Wing Moments this Week.” She says Palin was spewing “moronic batsh*t” and describes her speeches in San Diego as “borderline incoherent.” Other “word poetry” she shares include such statements from Palin as “Suck it up, cupcake!” (huh?) and “He was like a golden wrecking ball. He wrecked what needed to be wrecked in order to shine light on the shenanigans.” Aside from the “who-seriously-uses-theword-shenanigans” part of it, even the folks on “Morning Joe” asked themselves if Palin had taken “some bad acid” after hearing her speech. So, since Palin gave us “golden wrecking ball” to describe Trump, we may as well look at some other fun metaphors to describe Trump. He’s a: Towel-snapper in the locker room Bully on the playground Rattlesnake Godzilla om why in the universe anyone would give Trump five minutes. You do realize, this is A GUY WHO UNDERSTANDS BLACK HOLES!! He was on Good Morning Britain and was asked to explain Trump’s popularity. Brace yourself, right-wingers – his answer wasn’t very complimentary to you Trump supporters. “He’s a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator,” Hawking said. In another statement, though Hawking was discussing the UK sticking with the EU, he brought up a point that isn’t far afield from a discussion about a Trump presidency. “Gone are the days when we could stand on our own, against the world,” Hawking said. “We need to be part of a larger group of nations, both for our security and our trade.” I laugh when I hear Republicans worry about our standing in the world. Really?! They like to blame Obama, but don’t they remember? NO ONE in the world liked George W. Bush. But even worse, what do you think our reputation will be if Trump is president?!?! Even our friends the Brits don’t want to entertain him. Now, speaking of entertaining, I like this Trump metaphor from an article in the New Yorker by Evan Osnos: “He is less the carnival barker than the full cast — the lion, the fire-eater, the clown with the seltzer — all trussed into a single-breasted Brioni suit.” I’m enjoying all three rings of this race -perhaps we all are -- but c’mon, we don’t want to trade in the White House for a carnival tent.

It’s the way I roll. And besides, it limits the possibility of disappointments for me. With that being said, I’m sitting down to rant after a relaxing three-day weekend thinking about what’s going on in our land and in the world, and I’ve come to the realization that we’re just plain screwed! Why, you ask? *Some people are having complete hissy fits over the gorilla that was killed in the zoo while dragging a 4-year-old boy around after he fell into the area. Whoever’s fault it was doesn’t matter; the fact that some people care more about an animal than a human says a lot about our culture today, and it’s not normal or healthy. *In Venezuela we’re seeing the ravages of failed socialism and yet millions of Americans are turning a blind eye to it, frantically hailing Hillary and Bernie as one or the other to lead us to the promised land. *Many are so caught up in the world of themselves, the world of celebrities, and the pursuit of meaningless relevance, they have no idea what’s going on outside of their mental space that could result in their lives being painfully turned upside down. *Some left-leaners are touting that The Declaration of Independence is racist and sexist. Next thing you know (if it isn’t happening already) this sentiment will creep into public school teaching. *Dozens of people were shot in Chicago (other cities too) over the Memorial Day weekend and we hear precious little about it. Instead, we’re consumed with killing a gorilla, letting anyone use any bathroom they want to, and lashing out at speech somehow found hateful. While the carnage was happening in our president’s hometown, he was overseas, blasting Trump. What a guy. *The skewed world ideology of Obama has resulted in a weakened, non-aggressive military that is causing the likes of Churchill, Truman, Kennedy and Reagan to roll over in their graves. China, Russia and Iran hover in the background like laughing vultures, waiting to cause us as much harm as they can. It doesn’t help either to hand over $1.5 billion to Iran or to owe China and Russia ten tons of money. Whoops, I forgot about ISIS, but they’re just the JV team, right? These are just a few of the causes of my Eeyore attitude, not to mention a national debt that is so large it’s almost impossible to fathom, and none of the candidates give it much cause for concern. But wait, there’s more! What really gets me is the realization that the majority voters have a Santa Claus mentality that will hurl us into an oblivion we won’t be able to come back from. Maybe I should just turn into a non-caring, uninvolved lump, and maybe this crap wouldn’t bother me, because if it didn’t bother me, it wouldn’t bother me! The First 100 Days: Oh my. The contrast between what Trump plans to do and what Clinton’s plans are for the first 100 days in the White House is mind boggling: Hillary: (if you can find more than these, let me know) *Freeze deportation of illegal immigrants. *Enact full amnesty and a pathway to citizenship for illegals. *Provide access to welfare and grant voting rights for illegals. *Order all immigrant detention centers closed. *Grant Obamacare eligibility to illegals. *Expand Middle Eastern refugee settlements. Donald: *Rescind all the job-destroying Obama executive actions, including the Climate Action Plan and the Waters of the U.S. Rule. *Save the coal industry and other industries threatened by Hillary Clinton’s extremist agenda. *Ask Trans Canada to renew its permit application for the Keystone Pipeline. *Lift the moratoriums on energy production in federal areas. *Revoke policies imposing unwarranted restrictions on new drilling technologies. *Cancel the Paris Climate Agreement and stop all payments of U.S. tax dollars to U.N. global warming programs. *Scrap any regulation that is outdated, unnecessary, bad for workers, or contrary to the national interest. *Eliminate duplication of regulations, provide regulatory certainty, and trust local officials and local residents. *Future regulations to go through a simple test: Is the regulation good for the American worker? If it doesn’t pass this test, the rule will not be approved. Someone please tell me how the stuff Hillary wants to accomplish is for the betterment of our nation compared to what Donald will strive for? Please, people, look past personality and avoid falling into the feel good stuff that does nothing to promote prosperity. Lose the emotional judging and focus on what’s best for us, our kids and grandkids: Tax reform, regulation reform, healthcare reform, welfare reform, trade reform, immigration reform and, I will add, freaking common sense reform will go a long way in turning our broken down, backwards sailing ship around.

I am upset with this Bond Measure E. Everyone is for this. Why?? First of all, a Bond is a TAX!! Second we the homeowners are still paying off the last bond, from COC. There are 10 more years on that one. I read where everyone running for office is for lower taxes, but all of them are backing Measure E. Now I see that the Faculty just voted themselves a 5% pay raise. I also see that up to half of the students are from outside our valley. Now I am all for education, I have sons and nieces and nephews that have gone there. But enough is enough. My Property taxes already went up again this year, and I do pay extra since I have Mello Roos. Which by the way should have been paid off after 20 years, but the city thought different and re upped it. So there will be 1 vote for NO on E, next Tuesday. By the way how much money was spent on all the flyers that were mailed out. Could it be somehow that this was paid for with the money from the last bond measure?? Hmm food for thought. Paul W.

Here’s why there’s no comparison, and why we must… Lou It or Leave It. Bernie or Bust will risk getting Trump elected. But the Lou It or Leave It movement will save the Democratic Party, especially here in the 25th district. Here’s how: Local Democrats in Simi Valley, Porter Ranch, the SCV and the AV have been working for years to turn the 25th district Blue. After decades of hard work, perseverance, and sacrifice, we finally evened the voter registrations between D’s and R’s here in the 25th. We’ve also worked very hard through the years on building Democratic Clubs, coalitions and friendships to maximize our local electoral chances here locally. Finally, we’ve been diligently grooming some fantastic LOCAL candidates from all backgrounds and perspectives. These candidates, who are also friends and neighbors of ours, are to be our future. They themselves have sacrificed much, both personally and professionally, to be ready for action. We all, as a community, owe each other great debts of gratitude. All that hard work and sacrifice was further rewarded this election cycle with a vibrant national primary election between two very popular Democratic presidential candidates. Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton have rejuvenated Democrats, progressives, and independents, and positioned us for great voter turnouts. Poised and ready now to make great local Democratic inroads into local political offices, with great excitement and fanfare, we introduced our beloved local candidates to the electorate. Lou Vince for Congress! Maria Gutzeit for Congress! Christy Smith for Assembly! Darrell Park for Supervisor! Etc. Etc. Etc. We came out swinging from early 2015. We had amazing campaign launches. We hit social media hard. We canvassed neighborhoods and phone banked. We drove thousands of miles across the district to Clubs, and meetings, and rallies, and fundraisers, and debates, and community events. It was grueling work, especially for the candidates, but we wanted the best for our communities, our neighbors and our children, so we all made the sacrifice. But it was also fun. It really was fun. It was fun... until the carpetbagger dropped into our district to defeat Lou Vince. This shocked every local Democrat to the core. Everyone knew first-hand how hard everyone had been working with our local candidates for nearly a year. It was a long distant slap in all of our faces. Now, we know it’s “legal.” We know the law allows a Johnny Come Lately out of town candidate to parachute into any district he wants to run in. But the operative question for local Democrats is: “is it the right thing to do?” The answer to that is a resounding NO! Here’s why: First, opportunism is not a Democratic value, and it is certainly not a value we want to support in our district. I’ll be damned if we’ll allow an out of town stranger who doesn’t know the first thing about our district, our issues or our concerns, to just wily nilly drop into our district to take advantage of the foundations we’ve built here through decades of hard work. No! We cannot allow that. Our house is for us. Guests are welcome, but not to evict US! The carpetbagger is not welcome here. Second, money is not a deciding factor for us Democrats. It does not matter how much money you have. If you lack integrity and character, your money will not buy you our love. To want to use a far away district simply as your ticket to Washington, because you know you can’t win in your own district, stems from a lack of character and courage. To also want to drop your money bags on top of that far away district when you know several viable local candidates have been waging strong campaigns for nearly a year shows a lack of morals, integrity, and empathy that we Democrats cannot support. Some say, ‘but he’s seems like a nice guy.’ To that I say, because his outsider money bags afford him the luxury of that deception. He knows his only cards are mailers. So he’s just sitting on his money bags, smiling, and sending out mailers. Just like he told Lou Vince at the convention when Lou won the endorsement of the CA Democratic Party: “I’ll bury you in mailers” the carpetbagger yelped and scurried away. Our message back to the carpetbagger must be clear: “Money Can’t Buy You Love!” Lastly, and MOST importantly, the chilling factor a carpetbagger win will create for our future LOCAL activists and candidates will reverberate throughout our district for decades to come. How will we be able to turn to our next prospective local candidates and ask them to sacrifice their lives for us, when we’ll just turn our backs on them if a new, shiny, rich candidate drops in from outside to defeat them? If we don’t protect our own now, we will scorch the earth for all our future local Democratic candidates. I, for one, will not trust the district again. How then can I ask others to? We cannot allow this terrible precedent here in the 25th. Let’s not allow ourselves to become a haven for carpetbaggers who have never seen our faces, but whose only ambition is to walk over our backs to the political offices of their desires. This is not what we’ve been building and striving for over the decades. Our congressional election on June 7th is not just a simple election between two legitimate candidates like Hillary and Bernie. Ours is an election between the carpetbagger and the heart and soul of the Democratic Party here in our district. Lou It or Leave It! Vote Lou Vince for Congress on June 7th.

Zonta Installs New Officers, Names Zontian of the Year Z onta Club of Santa Clarita Valley installed Jorja Harris as its new president for 2016-17, honored outgoing President Karen Maleck-Whiteley and named longtime club member Sue Hayward “Zontian of the Year” at the group’s annual installation dinner last month at the Tournament Players Club in Valencia. Hayward has served the club as Membership Committee chair for the past year and has brought in a record number of new members. “She welcomes new prospective members with such warmth that she’s irresistible,” says one of her many nominations. Other nominations mention her passion about the mission of Zonta to improve the lives of women and girls, and her skill at organizing fun and fundraising events. During the past year, she started Zonta’s Celebration of Life (a way to share fun with friends and family before you die!), Tuesday socials at the mall, new meeting check-ins, a comedy night, tea social and monthly drawing to build conference funds. She also initiated a plan to call members who are not attending meetings and encourage them to become active again. Over the years she has been a member of Zonta Club’s board and served the club as second vice president in charge of membership. She has been a member of almost every major Zonta Club committee and volunteers for the SCV Boys and Girls Club and Habitat for Humanity. She volunteers at the SCV Senior Center and Child and Family Center and has been active in organizing the Sierra Pelona Wine Festival, which benefits local non-profits. Zontian of the Year is selected from member nominations. The final winner is selected not only on her leadership in Zonta, but also in the way she represents the club in the local community. The final selection committee is composed of former honorees. Harris was installed as Zonta president by Zonta International director and Zonta International Foundation director, a member of the local club as well as an international dignitary. Other officers and board members installed last month include Judy Penman, president-elect; Cheryl Wasserman, first vice president/programs; Sue Hayward, second vice president/membership; Debra Blakely, treasurer; and Phyllis Walker, secretary. Incoming directors include Patrice Rifkind, Ronnie Erickson, Barbara Meyer and Susan Gibson-Berson. Newly installed Nominating Committee members are Karla Edwards and Nancy Tucker. The evening also served as installation for SCV Zonta Foundation trustees, who include Cheryl Wasserman, Barbara Meyer, Adele Macpherson, Terry Jorja Harris (L), incoming president of Zonta Club of SCV, receives the gavel of office from outgoing president Karen Maleck-Whiteley. Kanowsky, Christine Sexton, Susan Hayward, Suzie Alziebler, Jorja Harris and Judy Penman. Outgoing President Karen Maleck-Whiteley was saluted for the club’s outstanding accomplishments under her leadership in the 2014-16 biennium. She noted that the SCV club is one of only two Zonta clubs in the world that has donated $50,000 or more to Zonta International during the current biennium. MaleckWhiteley was the club’s first president elected for a biennial term, and the local club will revert to one-year terms for officers in the 2016-17 club year. During Maleck-Whiteley’s two-year term, the club’s Girls Robotics program at the SCV Boys & Girls Club was expanded, the club’s Lifeforward Workshops served dozens of local women, and the club awarded nearly $21,000 in scholarships and grants at its annual awards event. Following Zonta tradition, the installation dinner is organized by a committee comprised of all the club’s active past presidents, and is chaired by last year’s president, Laura Troost. All past presidents also donated door prizes, which were awarded to guests throughout the evening.

When they bring them here, instead of putting them in a recycling bin, they get money.” Sinapyn said it benefits the environment, plus adds to community cleanliness. He also pointed out that a lot of recycling actually gets thrown into trash bins. With his new business, more of those can make their way to recycling plants. Sierra Recycling Center accepts aluminum cans and all the CRV containers, including plastic and glass bottles. No scrap metal or cardboard can be accepted. Residents can bring recycling in any container they choose, and the process is simple. “We separate them, then we weigh them and see how much it is, then I pay them in cash, right on the spot,” Sinapyn said. Sierra Recycling Center pays $1.58/pound for aluminum; $1.21/pound for plastics; and 10.5 cents/pound for glass containers. The business is located behind Dunkin’ Donuts, down the driveway to a lower level. Drive to the back of the shopping center where Chi Chi’s, Tilly’s and Firestone Tire are located. Hours are Monday-Saturday 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sunday 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Sierra Recycling Center is located at 27125 Sierra Hwy in Canyon Country; (818) 383-9294. 11 W ine n Roses Ranch will hold three open-house horse events this summer as part of the Time to Ride Challenge to welcome newcomers to horse activities. Created by the American Horse Council, the Time to Ride Challenge involves stables, horse businesses, and organizations across the country that believe that horse activities can contribute to the health and well-being of all Americans. The Time to Ride Challenge aims to welcome thousands of new enthusiasts to horse activities this summer. Wine n Roses Ranch, a new horse boarding facility in Acton, offers horse boarding, horse retirement and horse activities to beginners and seasoned riders. Wine n Roses Ranch’s The Equestrianaires™ horse program shares the love of horses, humane horsemanship, and horse activities with beginning riders. Once new horse enthusiasts finish The Equestrianaires™ program, they will have learned horse care, horse safety, horsemanship basics, discovered what style of riding they like best and what they would like to do with horses, from trail riding to horse showing. The Equestrianaires™ program offers new riders a foundation so they can go on to a next level instructor in the discipline of their choice. “I believe that touching, smelling, playing with, taking care of and riding horses is good for the human spirit,” said Tracy Smith, owner of Wine n Roses Ranch. “Engaging in horse activities offers (im)measurable rewards.” Wine n Roses Ranch will hold three Time To Ride events with The Equestrianaires this summer. The events are free with pre-registration and will be held Saturday, June 25, Saturday, July 23 and Saturday August 20 from 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. each day.

Hart Union High School District. The SCVSF scholarships are available to all graduating seniors who qualify as a “well-rounded” applicant. They are judged equally on school activities, community service, GPA, providing an essay on a specific topic selected by our Foundation board, and the desire to continue their education. There are specific scholarships for students who have high GPAs and for those who have a 2.5 GPA. All are encouraged to apply. Ensuring Continued Education of Hart District Students The cost of higher education continues to rise. Parents have difficulty shouldering education costs even if their student has the grades and the SAT/ACT scores to be admitted into college. Scholarships are available as a safety net, which allows many a higher education opportunity they might otherwise be denied. The SCVSF provides such a scholarship opportunity to the students in the Hart District. They are able to apply for over $150,000 in Newhall Foundation Scholarships, as well as another $125,000 funded by our local community and memorial donations Application and Awards Process and Student Selection Seniors visit the counseling office at their respective campuses quite often, as scholarships are made available via their daily bulletins. The SCVSF has scholarships for high achievers, as well as average students or students with specific talents or interests such as the sciences, fine arts or music. Our applications are on our website (www.scvsf.org) beginning December 1. Students are given two months to complete the applications and they are considered for any and all scholarships that are funded for the year. At that time, a team of volunteers comprised of community members preread and score each application based on the criteria established by the donors. In March, selection teams of counselors and community members take the pre-scored applications and make the final decision of the chosen recipients. The SCVSF also administers the Henry Mayo Newhall Foundation Scholarships. Following a review of all the applications submitted at each individual school site, a team comprised of teachers, department chairs, and counselors select eight candidates from their sites. These applicants are outstanding students in their high school careers or have extenuating circumstances that set them apart from their peers in skill, abilities or need. These eight students from each comprehensive and alternative site will be interviewed by a team of SCVSF members, community volunteers, and counselors who are not affiliated with the schools the students attend. Each team interviews applicants from two schools. At the conclusion of all the interviews, seven are selected and assigned awards from $2,500 to $5,000. The one individual per school who is not selected will have the opportunity to be considered for other SCVSF awards. The best part of this process is awarding the scholarships at the individual school sites’ Senior Awards Ceremonies in May. The recipients do not know that they have won either a Henry Mayo Newhall Foundation or an SCVSF Scholarship. It is a complete surprise to the recipient and his/ her family. Number of Recipients and Totals The SCVSF receives an average of 550 applications each scholarship season, and of those, presents an average of 150 awards per year. The scholarships range from $500 up to $6,000, totaling nearly a quarter of a million dollars each year. The ratio of applicants to awards is extremely high and when students submit an application, they are actually being considered for multiple scholarship opportunities. For the class of 2016, 150 scholarships were awarded, totaling $227,000. Support came from local businesses, community members, parents, educators, religious organizations, clubs and other foundations to provide the funds to support local students. Jun 3 - Jun 9, 2016 Jack Pistonetti T he Jack V. Pistonetti scholarship is a $6,000 award given annually to a college bound, graduating Saugus High School senior. Since 2008, the Pistonetti family, along with the Santa Clarita Valley Scholarship Association, has asked Saugus seniors to write an essay on “What have you done to help others less fortunate?” Recipients of the award have included students seeking to impact the fields of medicine, biology and political science, among others. Since its inception, the scholarship is founded on the idea that while academic achievement is important, being active in one’s community and helping others through extracurricular works is vital to becoming a well-rounded and productive citizen. Jack Pistonetti, for whom the award is named, was a student at Saugus High and Valencia High School’s special education program, graduating in 2012. Jack is the youngest son of Frank and Sherri Pistonetti; his older brother, Vincent, graduated Saugus in 2006, and the UC system in 2010. Despite Jack’s medical condition, he enjoys many of the same activities as others his age. An avid bowler, horseback rider and adaptive skier, Jack has had the opportunity to experience such events because of those around him in the community who are dedicated to helping others. Jack returns their devotion with smiles, laughter, and an inextinguishable happiness that inspires everyone who has the opportunity to meet him. In caring for a special needs child such as Jack, the Pistonetti family knows the importance of stepping outside the classroom to make a difference in the lives of others. This scholarship rewards those efforts, and helps families with their choice to pursue higher education and assist with the financial expenses that can sometimes be so burdensome. The Pistonettis are proud to report that all recipients of the award for the last nine years have not only demonstrated community service in high school, but have chosen to make it the driving force for their degrees and careers. The scholarship has been bestowed on new graduates who have gone on to become nurses, scientists andor entered other service or research careers across several fields. The common factor uniting all of these winners is that they continue the effort to make the world a better place, just as Jack will always continue to smile in the face of adversity. The SCVSF administers the funds from start to finish, and provides necessary accounting and tax-deduction paperwork. It is a form of advertising for local businesses, as their names are published on the website and appear in high school senior awards programs.

After another community college told Spencer it didn’t grant priority registration to all veterans, Spencer decided to give the COC Veterans Resource Center a call. The representative she spoke with at COC convinced her to go in for a tour of the campus and an overview of the support services available to veterans. “The day I visited campus I was like, ‘I’m home,’” Spencer said. Today, more than 23 years after first making the decision to serve her country, Spencer has utilized her veteran benefits with the help of the COC Veterans Resource Center, and will soon be headed to UCLA. “To be honest, my story isn’t one of those good old American soldier stories,” said Spencer, 42, who is set to graduate with honors from COC this spring. When Renard Thomas, director of COC’s Veterans Resource Center, heard about the issues Spencer was running into at other community colleges, he quickly assured her that things would be different at COC. “[Renard] said ‘In my eyes, a veteran is a veteran, and you will always receive veteran’s treatment at this school,’” Spencer remembered. However, her story is still unfolding. Originally from Dayton, Ohio, Spencer was transplanted from the Midwest to Albuquerque, New Mexico for work in the Air Force communications squadron after her high Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) score showed technical skill. She served during the Clinton administration, when the groundwork for a local area network was just being laid at the Albuquerque base. While on active duty, she performed as a singer at base events as a member of the Air Force’s elite entertainment group “Tops In Blue.” She also competed in the local pageant circuit, later winning the title of Miss Albuquerque. That title led to an invitation for Spencer to perform at a variety of events around the state — and signaled the start of a burgeoning entertainment career. But after honorably discharging from the Air Force, Spencer was essentially starting her career from scratch. Upon returning to Ohio, she would go on to spend the next 15 years working in the entertainment industry as a singer, songwriter, musician, choreographer, dance instructor, and sound engineer, while also earning membership in the Screen Actors Guild for her television songwriting work. In 2012, Spencer’s mother suffered a massive stroke, forcing her to walk away from her career once again, in order to care for her mother. Needless to say, the experience left her drained and depressed. “I was trying to rebuild my life,” said Spencer. Eventually, Spencer was encouraged to apply for vocational rehabilitation benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. At first, Spencer thought she wouldn’t qualify. She’d been out of the military for more than 20 years, and some benefits have a time limit. However, since a knee injury sustained in the service left her 20 percent disabled, she was in fact eligible for vocational rehabilitation. Designed to allow veterans to start a whole new career, vocational rehabilitation benefits pay for tuition, supplies, housing and even offer a living stipend, From there, COC Veterans Resource Center staff guided Spencer through the process of applying for, and receiving, the benefits she had earned. “The staff at COC was fantastic,” said Spencer, pointing to the help she received from Thomas and COC veterans’ counselor Sylvia Tran. “Renard makes sure that everyone working in that office is not just a body, but a body of knowledge.” Spencer enrolled at COC in the summer 2014, and has since racked up a 4.0 grade point average and become a member of the college’s Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society and Sigma Delta Mu Honor Society, and was accepted to UCLA, where she plans to transfer after graduation. Most recently, she was awarded the college’s “Dare to Dream” scholarship, dedicated to COC re-entry students who demonstrate a financial need. “Robbi has an exceptional zeal for learning, and her solid work ethic and thirst for knowledge helped propel her to the top of her class,” said Thomas, “She is an outstanding model for her peers and especially veteran students.” With her time at COC coming to a close, Spencer will now be focusing on pursuit of a bachelor’s degree in psychology and eventual doctorate in social psychology at UCLA, after being steered toward that subject during a social psychology class at COC. Spencer’s career goal is to be a social psychology researcher, providing therapists with the data they need to help their patients. “In eight years, I will come back to this campus and visit as Dr. Robbi Spencer,” she proclaimed. When asked what she would say to other veteran students returning to school or starting a new career, Spencer likened her experience to that of Charlie finding the golden ticket in the popular story of “Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.” “Do not waste the opportunity,” Spencer said. “Think of it like you just opened that candy bar with the golden ticket in it. Education really is that golden ticket, and it can change your life if you’re tired of where you are.” BRIDGE BITES from The American Contract Bridge League NERVES OF STEEL ♠ AK76 4♠ is a miserable contract, and clearly has no chance after the defense cashes ♥ QJ naturally they would prefer down two to down one.

Through the 2016 Global Collaboration Project, the group will provide books to Miravalle School in Nicaragua and an impoverished community adjacent to it, near Granada. SCVIP is a local non-profit organization focused on promoting and developing mutually beneficial strategic alliances and international goodwill between the people of Santa Clarita and people of international cities with “Local to Global” projects, programs, and partnerships. SCVIP also administers the Santa Clarita Sister Cities Program. The travelers are students from six organizations, including Association of Students United for the Language, Associated Student Government, Sigma Delta Mu, Psi Beta, Kee, and Omega Delta Sigma. Dr. Claudia Acosta, COC faculty member, will lead the students, joined by music and language teacher/ researcher João Junqueira and SCVIP board members Elena Galvez and Art Moore. COC students will learn about global connections in the modern world, the role of education, and how different groups and individuals respond to poverty in the 21st century. While in Nicaragua, the group will meet with former President Enrique Bolaños Geyer and Dr. Jaime Incer Barquero, regarded as a leading figure in conservation efforts in Nicaragua, in addition to other important leaders. The COC students have been fundraising to purchase the books and they will lead reading lessons with Miravalle students and teachers. Joao Junqueira will conduct a drum circle in Nicaragua. Junqueira’s research in music and education in Brazil has led him to promote the link between music- making rhythm and literacy. He is partnering with Remo Drums to promote sounds that will change students’ lives. The group is collecting school supplies for the students at Miravalle School, including pens, markers and crayons. While public education is free in Nicaragua, students must provide their own pens and notebooks at a monthly cost which equals approximately one day’s pay ($2) for the average parent. Such contributions help to keep children in school. Tax-deductible contributions can be mailed to the Santa Clarita Valley International Program, Santa Clarita City Hall, 23920 Valencia Boulevard, Santa Clarita, CA 91355. For more information about SCVIP and the Nicaragua trip, contact Claudia Acosta at (661) 362-3530. High Schools Teaching Finance Class L ocal teenagers will have the chance to learn the principles of basic finance, thanks to a new course at Canyon, Bowman, Hart and Saugus high schools this fall. Two local businesses – Neylan Group International (real estate team) and Heter Family Woodworking – are sponsoring the course, called Foundations of Personal Finance. Over the last four years, the two businesses have partnered, bringing various personal finance classes to the Santa Clarita community. Legacy Christian Academy and Canyon High School offered the class as a trial last year, and feedback from staff on both campuses was positive. The curriculum covers foundational topics such as col- lege loans, careers, giving, a history of personal finance, global economies and teaches students how to prepare monthly budgets. “We are so proud to be a part of changing students’ lives with this curriculum,” said Sam Neylan, president of Neylan Group International. “Neylan Group is passionate about financial education and facilitating Santa Clarita’s children to start on the best path possible, creating a wiser and better prepared next generation. As an adult, it’s changed my life and I wish I’d had this when I was younger.” “After taking the course, we see students understand more than most adults about insurance, saving and retirement,” Heter said. “Don’t you wish someone had helped you learn these basic skills much earlier? This class is life-changing. Our entire community will benefit from local students learning how to avoid major financial pitfalls.” There are additional grant opportunities available for home school groups and charter schools. For more information about the curriculum, contact Brendie Heter at (661) 645-3426. Brendie Heter, owner of Heter Family Woodworking, claims the effect of the program is dramatic.

Several hundred students, teachers, administrators and dignitaries attended the after-school event, when Saugus Principal Bill Bolde spoke about the need for the theater at the 40-year-old school. “We have waited a long time to see this dream come to being,” Bolde said. “Saugus students representing the performing arts (band, choir, drama, and dance) have built a legacy of excellence over the past 40 years and they have done so using an undersized black box theater (multipurpose room).” Cowboy Football Camp for Youth age 8-15 Years A ll Santa Clarita youth, regardless of football experience level, are invited to attend a noncontact football fundamental skills camp.

T he presidential election this November is shaping up to be an interesting one. According to polls, neither presumptive candidate is very well-liked among their respective party bases. Yet, despite that, both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have all but clinched each of their parties’ nominations. If things continue as they are right now, some pretty tough choices are going to need to be made by voters in all facets of the political spectrum. In situations like this, exercising one’s right to vote is crucial. Unfortunately, not everyone has that right. In the State of California, when someone is convicted of a felony, their eligibility to vote is temporarily suspended. While the individual is incarcerated, he or she cannot vote in any election. The case is the same for people who have been released from prison but are currently on parole. Once they are released from prison, satisfied the conditions of their parole and are not currently under state supervision, their voting rights will be automatically restored. All one needs to do in order to vote in an election is to re-register. Suspension of voting rights in California only applies to felons in the conditions mentioned above. Those who have been convicted of misdemeanors are still eligible to vote, even if they’re currently serving time in jail. Also, people who are convicted of crimes but sentenced to probation will not experience any restriction in the ability to vote. California’s laws regarding felons and voting may seem strict, but they’re actually far from it. Only two states in the nation, Maine and Vermont, allow felons currently serving out their sentences to vote in elections. In DC, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Utah, voting rights are restored immediately upon release from prison, regardless of parole status. For the unlucky few in Florida, Iowa, Kentucky and Virginia, voting rights can only be restored via personal petition or application to the government. The remaining states have laws regarding the restoration of voting rights that take into account the type of crime the person was charged with, and whether or not they’ve completed their sentence, probation or parole. Known as “disenfranchisement laws,” the restriction on voting rights post-incarceration has been shown to disproportionately affect African-Americans. Currently, about 7.7 percent of African-Americans are affected by “disenfranchisement laws” inhibiting their ability to vote. In 2015, then-Attorney General Eric Holder called on states with the strictest laws to review their policies and restore voting rights to individuals once they are released from prison. He claimed that continuing to withhold voting rights from individuals who have completed their sentences and are no longer under state supervision only furthers the stigma against ex-convicts and increases the odds of recidivism.

The one-day signature fundraising walk on Saturday, Nov. 5, 2016 benefits the American Diabetes Association, supporting its mission, to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. Team captains are being sought and teams are forming for the fundraiser. Whether physical walkers or virtual supporters, teams raise money for the event, motivated by the nearly 30 million people in the United States who have diabetes. Public health officials estimate that nearly 10 percent of adults in Los Angeles County have diabetes. Researchers in a recent UCLA health study found an additional 46 percent of California adults have pre-diabetes, a condition in which blood glucose (sugar) levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be considered diabetic. Early intervention via lifestyle changes, such as weight loss and increased physical activity, can help delay or prevent the onset of Type 2 diabetes. “Diabetes is a devastating disease that touches us all,” said Cassie Shafer, vice president of the Southern California Region. “Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes is such a wonderful event for friends and co-workers to come together and help change the future of diabetes. The camaraderie and spirit that is enjoyed by participating in this event is priceless.” This year, more than 4,000 area residents will come together to be part of the Stop Diabetes® movement during the walk at Six Flags Magic Mountain. The amusement park is located at 26101 Magic Mountain Parkway in Valencia. Once you register, you are given a Step Out Center webpage with access to a number of tools to help raise funds. You are then able to customize the page with your reason for walking, send emails to ask others to join you or donate, and download Facebook and Smartphone apps for online fundraising ease. And there are Step Out specialists, ADA staff members, available to help you. There is no fundraising minimum to participate, but there are perks available at various fundraising levels. Raise a minimum of $100 and receive an event T-shirt and a FREE ticket to Six Flags Magic Mountain to be used on the day of the event. Register at www.diabetes.org/StepOutMagicMountain. Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes provides an opportunity for employees, friends and family to come together. The American Diabetes Association funds research to prevent, cure and manage diabetes. The non-profit delivers services to hundreds of communities, provides objective and credible information, and gives voice to those denied their rights because of diabetes. For more information, call the American Diabetes Association at 1-800-DIABETES (1-800-342-2383) or visit www.diabetes.org. Jun 3 - Jun 9, 2016 The Human Side of Sports By Keir Chapman, Mr. Sports Contributor N ew Orleans Pelican rookie guard, Bryce Dejean-Jones, was a young man who made a series of mistakes in the early hours of May 28, 2016. At 23 years old, many people make errors in life, which generally help them grow and learn about the world. Unfortunately, however, Jones will never be afforded this opportunity, because on that fateful morning, Jones was fatally shot as he drunkenly kicked in the door of an apartment he believed was his girlfriend’s. The negative circumstances of Jones’ death have embittered many in the national sports community and created a vocal consensus that he should receive no sympathy. It is fair to say that Jones bore the responsibility for his untimely passing. It also should be noted that the homeowner, who acted in self-defense, was not to blame. However, the cold response sports fans have shown toward the loss of a young adult serves as an example of how our society often dehumanizes professional athletes whenever they falter. When Tray Walker of the Baltimore Ravens passed away due to injuries sustained from a dirt bike accident, rivalries were set aside, as the sports community came together to mourn the loss of one taken too soon. While Walker’s mistakes were also his own, they were more easily forgiven, as no one else was harmed by his actions. In the case of Dejean-Jones, the response is very different. When reading through comments on the Jones story, for example, one quickly gets a sense of the public’s opinion. The story has led people to praise the homeowner, while remarking that Dejean-Jones somehow deserved to die. MOVIE LISTING The dehumanization of a high-profile athlete, in albeit a less extreme circumstance, is the response to Cam Newton and his post-Super Bowl demeanor. Newton’s short answers and sulking behavior led to derision from fans, who taunted Newton and questioned his leadership abilities. Seldom did anyone put himself into Newton’s cleats, a fierce competitor who was forced to step off the gridiron and into the public-relations arena to speak to the media, just moments after losing the biggest game of his life. In that case, Newton’s response was human, yet there was little understanding of the details that formed its underpinnings. The price paid for being a well-known sports figure can be high — every mistake is broadcast to the world and open for judgment. We, as spectators and fans, assume the responsibility of weighing transgressions and deciding whether or not errors can be forgiven. And, while it can be difficult to put aside the biases due to a player’s team or persona, we would do well to give them the benefit of the doubt, much like the philosophy underlying the American legal system. It is true that Bryce Dejean-Jones’ death was avoidable and due to a serious lack of judgment on his part. Instead of placing the blame and shaming a young athlete for his final fall from grace, our thoughts would be better spent in sympathy for the family he left behind and the future he’ll never get to see. Whether one is a pro athlete or lives a regular, unassuming life, we are all human beings and, as such, deserve an equal measure of compassion and respect.

Office S Since our city’s inception in 1987, we’ve been conservative in our budgeting, which has consistently proven to be a successful approach in maintaining a balanced and responsible budget. The first budget priority is the implementation of Santa Clarita 2020, a compilation of City Council goals, City Council priorities, and various needs expressed by the community. We are nearing the completion of year one of this plan, and the organization will continue to focus on Santa Clarita 2020 over the next four years. The Santa Clarita 2020 plan includes the City’s existing major work efforts, including the development of new projects, programs and facilities, and projects intended to sustain existing but aging infrastructure. The plan is organized around six quality of life themes, which include: Public Safety; Building and Creating Community; Enhancing Economic Vitality; Community Beautification; Sustaining Public Infrastructure; and Proactive, Transparent, and Responsive Government Services. •A new and permanent community center in Canyon Country •A new tennis complex at Central Park in Saugus •A new library and community rooms in Saugus •Renovations to Old Orchard Park •An Arts Master Plan •Open space acquisitions and trail improvements In addition to including new projects, Santa Clarita 2020 provides a focus on sustaining our aging infrastructure. While the city is relatively young at 29 years old, much of our infrastructure, including facilities, roads, sidewalks, and irrigation systems, are much older. Attention must be paid to these assets so they continue to be safe and functional. Although the City will continue to focus on building new capital projects such as the parks, libraries, and community centers desired by the community, Santa Clarita 2020 guides our organization and outlines the balance between adding new amenities and maintaining and preserving the ones we already have. You can view the Santa Clarita 2020 plan, as well as our current budget and past budgets online via the City’s website at: santa-clarita.com. the County Clerk of Los Angeles County on 05/16/2016 NOTICE- THIS FICTITIOUS NAME STATEMENT EXPIRES FIVE YEARS FROM THE DATE IT WAS FILED IN THE OFFICE OF THE COUNTY CLERK.
