INTERIZATION—Willows, sycamores and cottonwood trees drop golden leaves into the slow waters of Malibu Creek,
in an archetypal scene of Southern California winter beauty. Even brief rain showers were enough to start Malibu’s
creeks and streams flowing again after a year of little rain, offering the first promise of spring renewal and the hope
of reduced wildfire danger, although it will take many more inches of rain to end the fire danger.

City Lobs First Volley in Battle over Camping on Public Lands
■ Critics Contend Council Capitulated to Textbook Mass Hysteria Fomented by Wildfire Fears
M
alibuites who have become inured to criticism
for impeding public
beach access are beginning to see
similar criticism emerging on
newspaper op-ed pages and the
Web of what is perceived as new
efforts by local residents to block
the public from using publicly
owned lands in the canyons and
mountains as well.
At what may have been one of
the most raucous sessions in recent memory, an emotional appeal by local residents at last
week’s Malibu City Council
meeting pressured members to
unanimously vote to seek a ban
on all new overnight camping in
the city in the aftermath of two
recent wildfires.
At the same time, the council
voted to seek a Local Coastal
Program amendment policy to
prohibit camping in open spaces
and commercial recreational
land, members approved a scaled
back version of the LCPA sought
by the Santa Monica Mountains
Conservancy for its park and
trails plan.
Shortly after the hearing, the
Conservancy issued a press
release condemning the vote and
calling it an effort “to limit access
to parks in Malibu.”
The council, bowing to the
public’s concerns about camping
and fire despite the lack of hard
data confirming any correlation,
voted 5-0 to ask the California
Coastal Commission to certify a
Local Coastal Program amendment that would prohibit all overnight camping.
“Fortunately this isn’t the end
of the battle. We will bring our
case to the California Coastal
Commission when, unlike the
Malibu City Council, the broad
public interest can get a fair hearing,” said Joe Edmiston, the executive director of the SMMC.
Edmiston accused the city and
its residents of trying to have it
both ways. “Obviously, the city
wants the open space and trails
purchased with taxpayer dollars,
but they won’t allow us to provide the parking and amenities
that will permit anyone but local
residents to use them.”
ABOUT-FACE—Mayor pro tem Pamela Conley Ulich (left)
watches as Mayor Jeff Jennings and her other council colleagues reverse themselves on the controversial issue of
overnight camping on state parklands in the Santa Monica
Mountains. Council members who did not oppose a camping
ban at prior meetings are the subject of a nascent e-mail recall
campaign that was spurred by Malibu Township Council
MSN Photos/Frank Lamonea
activist Marshall Thompson.
The SMMC head said, “The
Conservancy has a statutory obligation to protect access to its
parkland, even if a group of affluent homeowners doesn’t want
to let anyone but himself or herself in. We will do everything
within our means to meet that
obligation.”
Council members readily
acknowledge the matter could
once again result in a showdown
between the city and powerful
state agencies, including the
California Coastal Commission,
which must approve the city’s
request for a LCPA.
Edmiston, who appeared disappointed and angry at the outcome, may have best summed up
the council’s actions when he
said, “When you say Malibu is
up against the state, you have
laid down the gauntlet.”
Councilmember Sharon Barovsky, who made the motion for
the ban that includes only limited
ADA camping at Ramirez Canyon Park, said the city would be
taking on a fight and would need
local support when it goes before
the Coastal Commission.
“What the consequences are, if
we lose [at the commission], is
Mr. Edmiston will have what he
wants without the city,” she said.
Councilmember Ken Kearsley,
who talked about how the mission of the SMMC and the CCC
is to allow public access on parkland, said the city’s efforts were
to try to limit camping to get a
handle on it.
Acknowledging that the council was a policy about-face and
seeking a ban because of public
pressure, Kearsley said, “Now
you are asking us to take a crapshoot by saying no to camping.
Now we are going to have it out
of here and move it to the
Coastal Commission and then it

Malibu City Council Unanimously Opposes Woodside LNG Project
■ Members Are More Concerned with Project Necessity and Impact than Design Differences
T
he Australian company seeking to build a liquefied natural gas terminal halfway between Malibu and Catalina Island
is pointing to an erroneous number in a new City of Malibu ordinance as proof that the city’s opposition to its twin LNG ship proposal is based on misconceptions.
The council Monday passed
without discussion an ordinance
expressing city opposition to the
Woodside Natural Gas terminal
proposed for 21 miles south of
Point Dume, its nearest landfall.
The ordinance is almost wordfor-word identical to one passed
in 2006 opposing the BHP Billiton LNG terminal, right down to
the sentence that places the LNG
plant 14 miles off the Malibu
coast, even though the Woodside
plant site is 21 miles away.
“Typo,” said Mayor Jeff Jennings.
“The council is well aware that
it’s 21 miles off the coast,” he
said Tuesday. “Unfortunately,
there’s a typo, but that doesn’t
change the city’s position one
bit,” he added.
Councilmember Andy Stern,
one of the most vociferous critics
of local LNG proposals, said the
ordinance should have been corrected before it was voted on, but
he agreed with Jennings that the
wrong number is insignificant.
“The Woodside folks could
have attended the meeting last
night, and they chose not to,”
Stern said Tuesday. “We have
encouraged them to have a meeting in Malibu to educate the public on their project. They have
chosen not to do so.”
The president of Woodside’s
Santa Monica-based subsidiary,
Steve Larson, told the council in
a letter that he found it “disappointing to see this proposed
action so far in advance of the
issuance of the independent environmental assessment being conducted.”
“It is further disappointing to
see gross factual inaccuracies in
the draft resolution,” Larson
wrote. He stressed that Woodside’s “OceanWay” project was
substantially different than the
BHP Billiton “Cabrillo Port”
plan, which was jettisoned by the
state last April for more than 20
stated reasons.
Some of the differences cited
by Larson, however, are at odds
with the actual impact of the pro-
posed LNG terminal, which is on
indefinite hold while Woodside
answers questions posed by the
federal and state governments
before it starts its formal yearlong environmental review.
For example, Larson said
Woodside’s OceanWay terminal
“has no permanent, fixed abovewater structure, such as an offshore platform or a permanently
moored barge as other projects
have proposed.” Under its current
plan, Woodside would have one
of two twin LNG ships anchored
at all times on the Malibu hori(Continued on page 14)

$2 Million Matching Grant Is Pledged for Legacy Park
■ Wastewater Issues Still to Be Resolved; Fire Staging Area Needs Thrust in the Spotlight
M
alibu municipal officials
announced this week that
the Annenberg Foundation
has made a $2 million matching
grant to the Malibu Legacy Park
Project. For each dollar raised, the
foundation will match it up to $2
million, according to city officials.
Council members were told that
Wallis Annenberg, who is the vice
president of the foundation, is a
new part-time resident of Malibu
and took a personal interest in the
clean water objectives of the city.
Malibu resident and developer
Richard Weintraub, who made the
announcement at this week’s city
council meeting, was praised for
getting municipal officials inside
the prestigious foundation.
Senior Program Officer of the
Annenberg Foundation, Mark
Eiduson said the city’s project
meets all of the requirements that
the foundation is seeking. The
donation is the largest private
contribution to the project.
Councilmember Sharon Bar-
ovsky, who along with Councilmember Ken Kearsley and City
Manager Jim Thorsen attended
“the dog and pony show” at the
foundation’s office, praised Susan
Shaw Noble for her role and said,
“It is not often you are given more
than you are asking. We have already raised $350,000.”
Later in the evening, the park
also became the subject of debate
when Malibu Coastal Land Conservancy president Steve Uhring
charged that plans for maintaining a staging area for firefighters
and other emergency personnel
are not included in the current
proposal and said council members had fabricated that those
plans were contained in the
design for Legacy Park that is currently in the initial environmental
review process.
It was at a sparsely attended
scoping meeting on Legacy Park
last week when consultants were
informed by municipal staff that
the city council reiterated that the
park design would need to maintain a staging area for firefighters
and other emergency personnel.
The consultants said they would
take that into consideration.
Mayor Jeff Jennings said he
was told by fire officials that the
Civic Center is not considered the
only staging area in Malibu and
what is most important is where
firefighters are battling a blaze.
“There are a number of open
areas. The fire department will
pretty much go where it wants
to,” he added.
Councilmember Kearsley said
residents need to keep in mind that
if and when other vacant parcels
are developed in the Civic Center
area, such as La Paz, Ioki or
Schultz, then “contrary to popular
belief, we will have more staging
areas. All of those commercial
areas with parking lots are potential
staging areas. I see no problem. I
see a manufactured problem.”
Agreeing with Kearsley, Barovsky said she thought Uhring’s
comments were political in nature
and said he always shows up at
council meetings before municipal elections.
City Manager Jim Thorsen reassured council members that
there had been ongoing discussions with the consultants about
the staging area matter.
Last week’s scoping session on
Legacy Park formally begins the
environmental review process regarding issues and concerns to be
discussed in the Environmental
Impact Report.
Consultants reported that the
stormwater treatment component
of the project was moving ahead,
but the wastewater element would
be phased in at a later date. A consultant indicated a draft EIR
would be available for public
review in March, and hearings on
the final EIR would probably take
place in midsummer.
In a departure from previous
comments, consultants said the
wastewater element will be stud-
ied at a later date and there is no
timeline for the wastewater phase.
Consultants also indicated that
no recycled wastewater would be
coming to the park site and that
current estimates conclude more
land will be required.
There were four other attendees
besides the local press. They were
told that the costs of a wastewater
system, and how cost sharing
would be handled, were some of
the reasons the wastewater element was being delayed.
Consultants said it would not be
accurate to call the stormwater
project a stand-alone effort, but
was so much further along in the
pipeline that it made sense to continue with it rather than delay the
entire project because of delays
with the wastewater component.
One of the major objectives of
the Legacy Park, which is located
on what previously was called the
Chili Cook-off site, is stormwater
treatment. The city currently has a
La Paz Continued Again Council Proceeds with Trancas Park Design
A meeting scheduled for a public hearing on Dec. 18 by the City
of Malibu Planning Commission
on the proposed nearly 100,000
square foot shopping and office
center known as La Paz has been

officials.
The matter is being heard as
two separate projects, one a development agreement that includes a donated city hall and a
scaled down version with no donation.
Plastics
Recycling
Gets Push
Officials from the state Department of Parks and Recreation, Keep California Beautiful
and the American Chemistry
Council announced a new campaign at State Park sites, especially along the Southern California
coastline, that will focus on increased recycling of plastics.
Recycling bins and educational
displays will be placed at beaches
and to visitors to recycle.
State Park officials said the
campaign is an opportunity to get
park visitors to recycle, while at
the same time saving taxpayers
the cost of collecting such trash.
In a press release announcing
the campaign, officials maintain
the demand for recycled plastics
exceeds available supply and
while there are about 2100 certified recycling centers in the state,
many Californians still treat plas(Continued on page 17)
The public hearing was opened
by the planning panel at a previous hearing and was continued
after there was public testimony
about some of the consultant’s
conclusions.
Don Michael had told commissioners he did not think the modeling used for the evapotranspiration rates cited by the project’s
consultants could be justified.
Michael submitted a 100-page
report that planners decided
needed to be reviewed by a third
party consultant. The report is
critical of the consultant’s evaluation of those recycled wastewater
dispersal rates. More time is needed to finish the third party evaluation, according to municipal
officials.
The plans for the 15.2 acres of
vacant land located just east of
the public library include nearly
100,000 square feet of commercial development.
The two projects are being proposed simultaneously. Depending
upon which configuration is
eventually approved, the shop(Continued on page 17)
■ Vote Splits on Nature of Fields and Expanded Use
T
he preliminary plans for
Trancas Canyon Park that
include practice fields were
reviewed by the Malibu City
Council at its meeting this week,
and members voted 3-2, with
Mayor Jeff Jennings and Councilmember Pamela Conley Ulich
dissenting, to direct staff and the
consultants to proceed with what
is known as Plan B.
Two weeks ago, the city’s Parks
and Recreation Commission reviewed the design plans for the
proposed park and made a recommendation to the council to accept Plan B.
Both Jennings and Conley Ulich talked about not limiting the
size of the fields and urged the
rearranging of parking space to
make room for expanded fields.
“There is some debate about
practice and regulation play and
we said we would talk about that
later,” said the mayor. “I am concerned about most of the flat land
taking up parking.”
Conley Ulich said she had a
problem with making a decision
in 2007 about limiting the site to
practice fields for use in 2020. “I
can’t say it should be for practice
fields only,” she added.
However, neighboring residents from Malibu West told
council members they were flatly
opposed to expanded playing
fields that would be used for regulation play, citing traffic congestion and other concerns.
Members were told several reasons by planners why expansion
would not work. One consultant
said that an alternative drafted by
Malibu architect Ed Niles was
problematic because of the grading and concerns that the requirements for placing parking on
slopes would require retaining
walls that would not pass muster
with California Coastal Commission policies, which is why
planners placed the parking area
on a flat area near the fields.
The council was also told that
another plan calling for an expanded park was not doable.
City Ups Fire Reward to $25,000
■ Information Is Sought that Leads to Alleged Perpetrators
The Malibu City Council this
week took action to increase the
incentive for someone with information about the person or persons who may have intentionally
or accidentally started the devastating Corral Fire to step forward
and break open the investigation.
A reward for information that
leads to an arrest and conviction
in the blaze that claimed over
4900 acres and destroyed or dam-
aged some 90 structures was originally proposed at $10,000, then
increased to $25,000 by unanimous consent of the council at its
meeting Monday night.
Councilmember Ken Kearsley,
who proposed the increase., said
it would improve the odds of success. County officials indicate
they are also exploring whether to
add county funding to the total.
Arson investigators quickly de-
termined that the fire was the result
of human activity and are analyzing items found at the fire scene.
The council did not have an
update at Monday’s meeting but
noted that “it was in the community’s best interest to offer a monetary reward for information that
directly leads” to the determination of how the conflagration
started and the extent to which
criminal prosecution is warranted.
“We talked about how without
acquiring more land [Plan C] was
not viable,” said the city’s Parks
and Recreation Director Bob
Stallings, referring to an expanded version of the park contained
in Plan C that would include regulation play fields.
Stallings said he thinks the consensus is for Plan B.
“When they found out Plan C
was not viable, the Parks and Recreation Commission recommended Plan B,” he added.
Plan B is described by consultants as the “plan receiving the
highest approval rating at a [summer] workshop.”
The $3.1 million plan, which is
still underfunded by over $2.4
million, includes a multi-purpose
playing field, 61-space parking
lot, tot lot, dog park and other
amenities that would be utilized
only during daylight hours.
During an interview, Stallings
said the underfunding issue is
more of an accounting technicality because, though the city did
not get any more grants for the
park, as of yet, the council has
already pledged to use general
funds to pay for the shortfall.
“I am told the council can direct
the staff to establish an account for
the money or issue bonds. I don’t
have an account, yet,” he said. The
council did not address the funding issue this week.
The park was put on the fast
track by the council several
months ago and members have
been helping to move the proposal along in order to placate several different constituencies.

Do you think

Council meetings?
ALTERNATE VIEW
Editor:
In response to “Fire Brigade” by Charles Marowitz, I
find it unbelievable that these foolhardy residents defied
firefighters and stayed behind in the midst of an inferno,
endangering themselves in order to save their precious
possessions. Have these people heard of insurance?
What stuff do we own that is so bloody important that
you would risk your life or the lives of the firefighters who
would have to come in and rescue your sorry behinds
when things turned really bad. Beyond losing life, the
worst thing might be surviving with third degree burns
over half of your body.
I strongly believe it is always in our best interest to act
in a manner that is mutually beneficial to the community
but not in the way these residents behaved.
These people were just incredibly lucky things turned out
the way they did.

BLOCKED ESCAPE
Editor:
I am writing all City of Malibu representatives to make a
formal request that the city unblock the Cavalleri neighborhood’s historic emergency evacuation route (shown on the
city’s “Master Trail Plan” as the “Rosemary Thyme Trail”).
The background on this is that in 2003, Jo Ruggles, Judi
Pace and Charli Anderson of “Malibu Trails” and “Trancas
Riders & Ropers” presented 60 signatures of residents
complaining to the city that the “Rosemary Thyme” and
“Chute” trails were recently blocked. An inspector with
the city’s public works department inspected this complaint and announced to the city council that indeed, the
routes were blocked.
The city council instructed the Malibu Trails Association to make a formal request to code enforcement, which
was done within the week after the city council meeting.
However, to date, there has been no enforcement action by
the city and the trails remain blocked, putting the community at risk.
In 2006, residents presented questionnaires to the city
wherein 65 persons described using this route for fire evacuation and recreation since the 1930s. Also, approximately
100 residents either sent letters to the city or spoke before
the city council regarding the blocking of this route, causing one planning commissioner to say, “We have never
received this much correspondence on any project, ever.”
The new owner of the parcel responded by building a
big fence across the route. Residents complained that this
fence at 6317 Gayton Place was blocking this route. Code
Enforcement responded saying that the fence was allowed
as a part of another residence located at 5904 Bonsall.
However, California Coastal Commission staff has said
because the fence sits on a vacant lot located at 6317 Gayton, which is a different parcel with a different address, it
requires a Coastal Development Permit (CDP). Therefore,
the fence blocking the Cavalleri neighborhood’s egress
appears to be illegal as it is unpermitted.
Now, in October 2007, wildfires lit up the eastern sky at
5:30 a.m. and Cavalleri residents prepared to evacuate.
The unpermitted fence blocking our emergency evacuation
route was locked until 3 p.m. On November 24, 2007 wildfires again lit up the eastern sky starting at 3:30 a.m. Cavalleri residents could see flames and smoke just to the east
of Kanan Dume Road and to the north. Ash rained down,
embers burned our eyes and a mandatory evacuation order
was issued by sheriff’s deputies.
The Cavalleri neighborhood has an abundance of large
animals, from goats to alpacas to horses. Animal owners
who did not own a horse trailer could not walk them to the
east or north because of the approaching fires. They could
not go south to PCH where 15,000 residents were being
evacuated. Their only option was to walk west to Bonsall
and go under the underpass to the emergency staging area
at Zuma Beach. However, again, the unpermitted chain

Publisher’s NOTEBOOK
Constituencies Collide
I
t’s fascinating how similarly politicians,
whether elected or appointed, react when
faced with a meeting hall filled with people
who disagree with something the functionaries
have just done or are about to do. We’re not necessarily talking large numbers of people, as in
four- or five-digit sized crowds. Actually, enough
people to fill a defined space, the typical meeting
room will do just fine, particularly when it’s a
familiar room such as a hall or other quarters regularly used for routine community decision-making. The numbers of people who have assembled
don’t even have to translate into a sizable percentage of the electorate. Even if one decides to try to
make the case that most of the electorate disagrees with the crowd, or is, at the least, indifferent to the issue that brought these people out, the
small group will tend to prevail, especially if the
subjects—the school board members, council
members or commissioners—have been primed
in advance with e-mails, faxes, telephone calls
and other one-on-one communications. The
crowd doesn’t need huge placards or flaming
torches a la the mob scenes in some of the great
movie classics, such as “Birth of a Nation” or the
original “Frankenstein.” Enough people just need
to file into the room, sit down and stare at the
podium. Soon the temperature in the space begins
to rise. Even the strongest and most clearly
focused of Machiavellians has to fight off wilting
in the face of concerted opposition. The ease with
which razor-ribbon ridicule can be inflicted on a
lone or even a handful of adversaries is difficult to
muster, especially when the ranks of an angry
meeting hall include neighbors who have sided
with the same officials on other issues in the past.
W
hether the action at hand is a school
board about to reallocate funds that were
ostensibly promised for a contrary use, or
a city council attempting to engage in
brokering with another level of government to
find common ground, numbers and context matter. The numbers contribute to double-edged emotional responses. This can be anger, as this is
“unfair.” Or it can be fear, as the crowd thinks
officials are putting it in danger. Anger and fear
can trigger questionable, if not irrational, behavior, which is part of the argument for separating
the hearing process from the deliberative one.

Woodie Parade Celebrates Fourth Year Locals Asked to Open Homes Monthly Bird
to Troops for Xmas Dinner Walks at the
Malibu Lagoon
TRADITION—The fourth
annual Malibu Christmas
Woodie Parade took
place last Sunday. Organized by local resident
John Zambetti, this
year’s event featured
more than 19 of the classic cars, Although several locals participated,
people came from as far
as Ventura County. Above, drivers and passengers gather on Pt. Dume
at the beginning of the
parade; at left, the cars
cross PCH at Webb Way
on the last leg of the
drive. MSN Photos/Frak Lamonea
CELEBRATION—The Malibu Republican Women
Federated recently held its Pearl Harbor/Veterans Luncheon. Pictured above are Frank La Rosa, representing Vietnam Veterans Chapter 355; incoming MRWF
president Alice Starr; executive director of the Bob
Hope Hollywood USO Michael Tielmann; and outgoing MRWF president Saundra McFadden.The main
goal of the event was to spread the word that several
troops from the Naval Base in Ventura County, that is
located at Point Mugu, will not be able to go home for
Christmas, with the hopes that Malibuites will open
their homes to them. Anyone who would like to invite
some of the troops for Christmas dinner, should contact Chief Arnold Alonzo at [email protected] or
at 805-982-4233, or Chief John MacCallum at
[email protected] or 805-982-6428. Another
way to offer support is by donating to Operation
Seabee Christmas, an nonprofit organization that collects items and monetary donations to deliver holiday
packages to deployed family members overseas. For
more information, visit www.seabeechristmas.org.
On the fourth Sunday of
each month the Santa Monica Bay Audubon Society
holds birdwatching walks at
the Malibu Lagoon State
Beach, located at Pacific
Coast Highway and Cross
Creek Road.
At 8:30 a.m., the adult
walk begins and is open to
beginning birdwatchers as
well as experienced ones.
The lagoon offers a wide
variety of species—as many
as 40 in summer to 75 during migration.
At 10 a.m., there is a children’s walk and experienced
guides will indoctrinate
youngsters of all ages into
the many species at the
lagoon, and each child is
supplied with a set of binoculars.
The birdwatching is free,
but parking is $10 in the
lagoon lot and participants
meet by the first bridge near
the picnic tables and the
kiosks. For more information, call 310-393-6205.

Malibu Presbyterian Holds Fundraiser to Rebuild

“Women’s House Party” to raise money to rebuild

E-D-I-T-O-R
on the American public decades ago after "extensive testing."
That was 70 plus years ago when "extensive testing" was not
so extensive. It was more like an affirmative nodding of heads
from those who benefited greatly. Fluoride is a chemical, and
we know that chemicals ingested into the body are bad. We
know that a lifetime of ingesting chemicals can assist in
leading to disability and premature death.
The experts in the 1930's said that fluoride prevents
tooth decay; just the opposite is true. Fluoride and
aluminum mixed together (as they do in our drinking
water) are powerful toxins. It's hard to get away from
this stuff; for instance, most California wines have very
high fluoride and aluminum levels. Once fluoride enters
a food, it is impossible to remove.Fluoride is a very
reactive substance and it binds to the plant so you can't
remove it.
I recently interviewed Dr. Russell Blaylock, renowned
neuroscientist, for my upcoming book. When I discussed
fluoride with him, he said, "You
have to understand it's all a payoff system. Fluoride is a
waste product. Communities
keep trying to refuse it and
they come back every year
and try again. They offer the
city contracts, the government contracts and
dangle the possibility that
they are going to do a big
project if this community
agrees to fluoridate the water
supply.
“We now know beyond
any doubt that fluoride does
not reduce cavities; in fact, it
increases cavities; so there is

link fence blocked the emergency evacuation route.
Attached hereto is a photo of the deputy who issued the
mandatory evacuation order. He stopped his vehicle to
assist a lady who was attempting to evacuate her animals
via the Rosemary Thyme Trail when her egress became
blocked by the unpermitted fence. Bolt cutters were
located to cut the lock and the lady and animals, as well as
other residents and their animals, used the route to safely
evacuate to Bonsall and Zuma Beach that day. However,
had Cavalleri or Kanan Dume been at the flashpoint of the
fire, as were residents of Corral Canyon, people and
animals could have died because of this blocked
emergency evacuation route. In fact, John Olk is quoted in
the Malibu Surfside News as saying he was only able to
make one trip up Corral Canyon with a horse trailer to save
horses that morning because when he tried to return for a
second trip the road was blocked by fire engines.
We urge the city to learn from this tragedy and take
immediate action to prevent unpermitted fences from
blocking neighborhood connector trails that residents use
for emergency evacuation routes so that our large animals
and our families’ lives are not endangered. Incoming
volunteer horse trailers who must compete with fire
engines for space on our substandard roads exacerbate the
already existing hazards.
We ask that the city please enforce the LCP, which
prohibits the blocking of
historic routes and trails and
requires Coastal Development Permits for fences
on vacant land so that we
GRADES 7-12
can take comfort in
knowing that we can safely
evacuate.

(Letters are continued from page 9)
no justification for putting fluoride in the water. Even the
ADA (American Dental Association) admits this because the
studies were so overwhelming that there was no benefit
whatsoever. The ADA has been lying to dentists all these
years. “Fluoride is one of the most poisonous substances on
earth. It tends to accumulate, particularly in the bones and
the thyroid gland and in the brain. It lowers IQ's. It's
associated with Down’s Syndrome and it connects to
excitotoxcity (chemical poisoning); but the people who are
promoting it, primarily the government and the ADA, have so
much influence through the media that you really can't get the
truth out.
People are just not aware how enormously toxic fluoride is,
particularly when combined with aluminum. When you mix it
together (which they do in drinking water) where the two
combine chemically, they form a substance that acts as a false
transmitter in the brain and wreaks all kinds of havoc. We
also find that tumors, like breast tumors, have G type
receptors (glutamate receptors); and fluoride activates them.
This connects to the finding that fluoride increases cancer
growth and cancer mortality. When you fluoridate whole
communities, you are just assuring a lot of cancer patients
that their cancer is going to recur or it's going to be more
difficult to control because of the fluoride. As you fluoridate
the water, you fluoridate the plants. We're seeing a bioaccumulation of fluoride all over the United States, and the
National Research Council said the average American is
taking in about two to three parts per million fluoride
whether they want to or not. The ADA has stipulated that
everybody needs one part per million fluoride (who knows
why), but we unknowingly already get three times that
amount.”
Fluoride is deadly serious. In an environmental assault
unlike anything the human species has ever before
encountered, why, why would we go out of our way to add
more chemicals to our drinking and bathing water! The idea
is ludicrous.
Don’t let this happen. Speak out. It's in the works right
now. It’s about to happen. In order to protect ourselves, we
are all going to have to install reverse osmosis filters in our
entire water systems in our houses. Because of the fluoride
and the enormous toxicity, you must change your filters every
three months. Perhaps the city would like to reimburse us for
this expense that requires us to take this drastic measure.
Maybe with our collective voices we can reverse this terrible
assault on our health. Oppose fluoridation for the sake of your
health and your family's. New medicine is working diligently to
find ways to avoid chemicals in our bodies and our
environment. These new, cutting-edge doctors are aware that
the sickness all around us is connected to the chemicals in our
food, water, homes and environment. Why would we go out of
our way to add more chemicals to our water?
What are our city officials thinking? It is clear that
fluoridation is not in our best interest, but definitely in the best
interest of those who promote this crazy idea.
Think about it: “Let's add chemicals to our water supply to
prevent cavities.” Even if that were true (which it is not), has
anyone considered the additional harm to the body and brain
that comes from ingesting dangerous manufactured chemicals
all day, every day?
Check out the meaning of excito-toxins on Google.
Fluoride is an excito toxin. self poisoning is inescapable. Our
bodies are trans-dermal; so in the shower, in our pools, our
baths, our vegetable gardens, fluoride will be seeping into our
blood streams. And forget soaking in a bath. At 20 minutes
one pint of bath water is now inside your body, chemicals and
all.
We in Malibu live a life of health, fresh air, clean ocean
water, exercise and organic foods. We are grateful that we have
found this beautiful spot on earth that we protect and cherish.
Fluoride is being added to our water supply “in the best
interests of the population of Malibu.” Why? Follow the
money trail.

OBITUARY
CENTER SUPPORT
O.G. Saunders
Editor:
This is regarding the article about the California Wildlife
Center vying for the permit to build and operate the second
marine mammal center—a rare opportunity being offered by
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)—the agency that
governs marine mammal response and rehabilitation.
Let me clear something up—the only reason this opportunity has presented itself is because of the tireless work of
Peter Wallerstein (Whale Rescue Team—now Marine Animal
Rescue). For over 20 years, he has dedicated his life to
rescuing marine mammals in the Los Angeles area.
He has come up against, fought, and persevered through
battles with NMFS, which until now, had dismissed his
appeals for the gravely needed ancillary marine mammal
center. Peter has gone so far as to have already secured
financial backing and even the land near Santa Monica upon
which the facility could be built.
I hope those administrating my old center would back off
and allow Peter the opportunity to see his project to fruition.

IMAGE ISSUE
Editor:
Since Mr. Watson took umbrage with my public relations
credentials in relationship to GUMDROP, I thought it
appropriate to correct his implication that I was criticizing
the group. Far from it. Greater Malibu Disaster Recovery
Project is a critically important part of Malibu’s history, then
and now, and provides a great deal of comfort.
However, by having an acronym that is silly—imagine
saying, “Yes GUMDROP does lots of good” to a television
reporter when all you get is one sound bite—it undercuts the
positive image that you want to project.
I have been a PR practitioner and consulted on many
image building projects for Fortune 500 companies and
nonprofits for 30 years. I have been on the faculty of both
Pepperdine and UCLA Extension for 11 years combined. I
am an expert. I would only refer to the organization’s full
name to garner respect and build on a solid image.
Free speech, Mr. Watson, though the game of telephone in
Malibu is alive and well, as virtually anything you say to the
city council ends up as an “attack.”
Susan Tellem
OPEN SEASON
Editor:
I cannot tell Walt Keller how encouraged I am by his
letter last week, indicating that one of his favorite adopted
council policies is #23, “Protection of Home Rule and the
Right of Self-Determination.” Obviously he has seen the
light since the era of “Protection of Walt Rule and the Right
of Walt-Determination.”
Seriously, Walt should stop reminding everyone that he
was our first mayor. He is like a nagging mother who can’t
stop reminding her grown children that she gave them
birth. He is simply trying to create a bogus issue ahead of
next year’s election, insuring yet another ugly season of
mud-slinging, vitriol and vengeance.
Real solutions require diplomacy and compromise,
qualities utterly absent when he and his pack of thickheaded bulldogs ran things.
There is no love for Joe Edmiston and his petty class
warfare in this community. We’re all in agreement that he’s
a menace and an unwelcome neighbor. Unfortunately, he’s
operating under a state mandate that requires delicate
maneuvering. But we are all on the same side.
This city council has been working their tails off on this
issue—listening to the community and striving for a
workable solution while all he has offered up are personal
attacks against political rivals against whom he has a
personal grudge. After nearly two decades of his
poisonous, mean-spirited blather, I’m really tired of it.

EXCHANGE
Editor:
With regard to “Charged Issue” in the Dec 6 edition. I
think this DWP system is called a SWER or Single Wire
Earth Return where the return loop to the generating station
is through the earth and sea water. High Voltage Direct
Current, HVDC, is used because there is less loss than
using AC over long distances, i.e. Washington State.
The misunderstanding is the use of the word “dissipating” [in the article by Hans Laetz]. I think a more appropriate word is “conducting.” The power is not deliberately dissipated at sea. There is power loss because of
the inherent electrical resistance in the conductors which
are the power lines and the electrodes, this power loss is in
the form of heat dissipation. Electricity flows in a closed
loop with the electrons being continually being reused.
They are not like spent steam dissipating into the
atmosphere.
Jack Singleton
Editor:
Jack Singleton raises an electrifying point, one I had not
previously considered. Maybe all those electrons dissipating/being conducted out into the ocean (we’re both
describing the same process, but my word is better) are
further good cause for alarm for oceanfront residents like
him to abandon support of LNG terminals ... sounds very
dangerous.
He should please advise right away if any boiled SCUBA
divers wash up—I’ll run right over with a camera and
credit him with the find.
Now, I have a question for him: shouldn’t this discussion
have logically ended already, under the Second Law of
Thermodynamics?
Hans Laetz
CAMPING CONCERN
Editor,
When my husband worked as a corporate officer of a
Fortune 500 company, we were aware that not only the
corporation, but also we personally could be held
responsible for any damage caused by the decisions of the
company.
I can't help but wonder if Mr. Edmiston and the Malibu
City Council would be so willing to defy the will of the
people if their fortunes were at risk should a happy
overnight camper accidentally start a fire.
Of course, Joe Edmiston and the Council might be
indifferent to damages if they were all to be paid by
taxpayers’ money. In such a case the victim would be
paying himself.

Chabad of Malibu Celebrates Chanukah with Menorah Lighting
HOLIDAY—Chabad of
Malibu held its annual
Menorah lighting at
the Malibu Colony
Plaza on Dec. 4, to
celebrate Chanukah.
The Menorah was lit
each evening until the
end of the holiday.
CELEBRATION—There were lots of activities for people of all ages, including live music and delicious
holiday fare. For many participants, it was a chance to visit with old friends and make some new ones.
FUN FOR ALL—There
was lots for children to
do including face painting and making balloon creations. Above,
youngsters color holiday greetings.
SMILES—Mendel Wolowik, Mendel Cunin and Eli Gross pause at a crafts table.
TRADITION—Above, Chabad’s Rabbi Levi Cunin wraps the “Tefillin” straps
around Malibu resident Fred Segal’s arm. Tefillin are two small black boxes
that contain holy scripture, with black straps attached to them—one goes on
the arm, where it is wrapped around seven times, and the other fits snugly
on the head.

Barbecue Given for Postal Workers and Firefighters
APPRECIATION—A
barbecue was given
for local postal employees and firefighters
to show gratitude and
appreciation for their
service during the last
fire. The event was
held at the Colony postal annex on Pacific
Coast Highway. At left,

workers gather outside
by the mail trucks during a break.
Camping Ban
(Continued from page 2)
ley Ulich, who from the
outset was the lone opponent of overnight camping,
praised her colleagues for
their turnabout.
Councilmember Andy
Stern said he supported the
measure because if the council turned down the LCPA,
the matter would have gone
directly to the Coastal Commission without any further
input from the city.
Edmiston told the council
they had still not banned
camping since it was going
on right now in Corral Canyon at the RV park.
He said the difference is
that the cost there is $40 or
$50 a night and that limited
camping to those who could
afford that amount.
Conley Ulich replied
there are 300 campsites in
or near Malibu where camping is available for $15.
“We welcome people to
Malibu. We just need to
educate them [about the
dangers of fire],” she said.

are visible on clear days off

Larson told the council
that its regasification would
emit less smog than the
BHP Billiton scheme would
have created. Government
agencies acknowledged
this, but asked for more
information on how smog
emissions from the transpacific LNG carriers would be
calculated and offset.
Larson also pointed out
that the Woodside project
would not use seawater for
cooling, as the BHP Billiton
project would have. And he
said safety and security
would be worked out to the
satisfaction of the Coast
Guard, but Malibu officials
are worried that local officials and the public will not
be privy to those plans.
After Monday’s council
vote, Woodside spokesperson Michael Hinrichs said
the company was “very disappointed that the city
council would take any
action in opposition before
a draft [Environmental Impact Report] is published.
We are also shocked that
the city council would vote
on and pass a resolution so
ridden with blatant and
gross inaccuracies.”

OBITUARY
Marjorie Durning Hollinrake
Marjorie Durning Hollinrake,
beloved wife, mother, and
grandmother, peacefully passed
away from cancer at her home
in Malibu, CA, surrounded by
her family on December 11,
2007. She is survived by her
husband of 59 years, Gerald
(Jerry), her daughter Marianne
Pencak, her sons John and
Michael, her granddaughters
Julianne Hollinrake and
Michelle Pencak, grandson
Scott Pencak, daughter-in-law Catherine Hollinrake, and
son-in-law Bruce Pencak.
In 1988, Marjorie (Marjie), with her husband Jerry,
opened Zuma Travel on Pt. Dume in Malibu. Marjorie had
a love of travel, and devoted her last 18 years to operating
the agency. Her knowledge and expertise of the travel
industry was appreciated by her staff and clientele, and she
was a respected figure in the travel community.
Born in Aledo, Illinois, she was raised on a farm, taught
in a one room schoolhouse, and after marrying Jerry,
moved to California in 1951 where she worked at several
banks in Santa Monica as a teller. In 1961, Marjie and Jerry
moved to Malibu. From their house on Puesta del Sol, she
loved watching the whales go by from the balcony, and was a
strong advocate for protecting the ocean environment.
In June of this year she was admitted into the Daughters
of the American Revolution (D.A.R.), tracing her heritage
back to President William Henry Harrison.
She will be remembered for her kindness and compassion,
her wonderful sense of humor, her smile, and her quick wit.
The funeral mass will be held on Monday, December 17,
2007 at 12:00 P.M. at Our Lady of Malibu Church, 3265 S.
Winter Canyon Rd., Malibu, CA, followed by a reception
at the parish hall. Burial will be private.

The Aquarium AGE
The Week of December 13-19, 2007
D
ivine fire continues to illuminate everything between heaven and earth, this week. The
nights burn as brightly as the days and
the days are simply dazzling. Be prepared to see what hasn’t been seen
before—there’s no place for the shadows to hide—and also expect some of
what’s revealed to be more than just a
little uncomfortable, if not downright
disturbing. But also anticipate what’s positive to be undeniable.
Pay attention: We’re in the midst of a personal and collective
quickening, and it’s not often we get to simultaneously witness
and participate in such a magnificent display of cosmic intensity.
The source of this accelerated frequency is the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction, in Sagittarius; it was exact on December 11. And this
week, even though Jupiter and Pluto are separating, the Sun and
Mercury, also in Sagittarius, join the conjunction, and their combined presence extends the effect. For new readers, the
Pluto/Jupiter conjunction marks the end of Pluto’s thirteen-year
transit through Sagittarius, a cycle that ends on January 25, 2008.
Sagittarius is the sign where we reach for wisdom through
knowledge that has been substantiated over time; it’s the Classics, not pop music, and what endures beyond the trendy. Wisdom is its strength, and ignorance, one of its shadows. Certainly
there’s no denying that over the course of the last thirteen years,
ignorance has gained ground. Our culture increasingly worships
form rather than content, and the “religion” of appearance has
created a climate where image and innuendo, unsupported by
fact, have the power to sway opinion. “Half-truths” pass for substance, and just like fast food, even though we know the spin is
harmful, we swallow it anyway. When ignorance triumphs, it
sets the standard at the lowest common denominator, and the
bully becomes a symbol of bravery, cheating, a viable modus
operandi, and women willingly objectify and identify themselves
as an assortment of body parts designed solely for sexual pleasure. As we become dumb, we also become numb. The insidious
side effect of numbness is futility—another Sagittarian shadow—and a sense of “what’s the use.” It all feels too big to rail
against—the government, the media, the political system, and
the economy. We don’t expect to be heard. So instead, we
despair and try to cope, failing to realize that impotence, personal
and collective, is another sinister consequence of ignorance.
Watching small minds win as they recklessly put all of us in danger has been one of the most difficult challenges of Pluto’s transit through Sagittarius. I mean, really, who would have thought
we would miss Nixon? But the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction also
amplifies hope, a positive Sagittarian characteristic, as well as a
potent antidote for despair. And in times of ignorance and futility, hope can also serve as a powerful subversive agent because it
resists defeat. It allows us to believe in ourselves, in each other,
and in the possibility of change. Hope is the creative fire of the
heart and it should be worn proudly, as a badge of courage, espe-

If you know your ascendant and/or your moon sign, read that too.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Observe, rather than judge, and you’ll
emerge with new skill. It isn’t often you are presented with an
opportunity to witness the depths of your personal fire, so try not
to be judgmental about your intensity.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Negative thinking will only unravel
what’s good. So rather than worrying about how others are
assessing your contribution, simply continue to do your best.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Relationships with significant others,
personal and professional, continue to rearrange themselves to
accommodate your picture of reality. Be clear and direct about
what you need and you’ll manage the intensity with skill.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Be decisive, but also be flexible. Not
everyone will agree with all of your choices, but if you’re willing to
compromise, you’ll find common ground for mutual success.
Leo (July 23-August 22): The risk requires all of you—body,
mind, heart, and soul—and there is no way to predict the outcome. The only important piece of this process is your willingness to believe in yourself.
Virgo (August 23-September 22): It is an unsettled situation, but
that doesn’t mean the entire tumult is negative. Before you jump
to conclusions, take a deep breath, and resolve to let the resolution develop in its own time.
Libra (September 23-October 22): Being blunt may be satisfying, but it could do more harm than good. Instead of communicating off the cuff, be cautious, and think before you speak.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Indulge me, and once again,
contemplate how to measure your true value. If you’re still thinking self-worth can be accurately reflected by your bank account,
think again.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): Take one more look at
the last thirteen years, and as you do, pay attention to where you
might have been resistant to growth, because as this cycle comes
to a close, what was denied seeks resolution.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19): There is no need to push
the river—life is moving fast enough as it is. So be patient, and
you’ll navigate the intensity with skill and agility.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18): Consistency will yield the best
results. So rather than spreading yourself too thin, concentrate on
one or two projects. Stay focused and you’ll reap positive rewards.
Pisces (February 19-March 20): It’s an emotional week, but that
doesn’t mean it’s a negative ride. Expect to be tender, and rather
than resisting that sensitivity, welcome it—it will only expand
your capacity for wisdom and compassion on the journey.

his cage and sat quietly. After a moment
had won his trust enough for a leash to be
used. They were taken out for a walk. The
little girly-girl Jody was just in delight, running and playing, “dive-bombing” big brother’s hind legs and running away gleefully
with a mischevious grin on her face.
When he was petted, Cody got this gentle, blissful look on his face. Soaking up love
they did not want to leave the volunteer’s
side. These are dogs who love deeply: loyal
to a fault. The extreme intelligence they
posses is obvious, they look you in the eye
and clearly understand that they are in a
place of danger and are resigned to their
fate. They are the perfect age of four!
These dogs are extremely urgent. Their
time is soon here. Please find a special
