Immediately, the colorful tattoos that completely cover his arms become impossible to miss. By Martha Michael Gazette Editor On Monday, June 27, 2016, surrounded by his family, Lloyd Sreden lost his fight with pancreatic cancer. He was 55 years old. “It’s my whole life on my body,” he explains, and then describes all of them. On his left arm: a combination Irish Cross and Mexican flag for his parents, the “Star Trek” logo and “The Beatles” as it appeared on Ringo’s drum kit, a Buddha of compassion; and on his ring finger, the words “That’ll do, pig,” from “Babe” (his wife calls him Babe). Lloyd was born to Barry and Maxine Sreden in February 1961 and grew up in Granada Hills, Calif. A resident of Santa Clarita, Lloyd was known for his generous service to several local non-profit organizations, but perhaps more, for his reputation as a practical joker. Philanthropy Lloyd got involved early as a coach and volunteer with the William S. Hart Baseball and Softball organization. He generously shared his expertise in finance and served as a long-term board member. By Lee Barnathan Contributor continued on page 3 On his right arm: his wedding date (Oct. 13, 2012) and a groom that resembles a skull from the Mexican Day of the Dead celebration (he said his wife has the bridal equivalent), the words “The God in me welcomes the God in you,” a lotus to symbolize rebirth, some skulls to honor people who have died, the eye of the Egyptian god Ra; and two females standing back-to-back, one engulfed in flames and wearing horns to symbolize hell and the other in clouds wearing a halo to symbolize heaven. continued on page 12 2 SANTA CLARITA GAZETTE & FREE CLASSIFIEDS Jul 1 - Jul 7, 2016 VOTED AV’S BEST BREAKFAST YEAR AFTER YEAR NOW OPEN!

And in 2010, Lloyd joined the College of the Canyons Foundation Board of Directors. “He was serious and very good at what he did, and he had a sense of humor, which made things bearable, especially during tax season,” said Ron Morgan, another partner at the CPA firm. “He knew practically everybody in Santa Clarita.” water,” said Corn. “I think he lived to prey on people with his shocking pen.” An active member of Rotary Club of the Santa Clarita Valley, Lloyd freely donated his financial talents to the group. Berger’s eulogy underscored how Lloyd’s clients trusted his work. “Lloyd was blessed with charisma,” Berger said. “You can see this by how many different friends he had. Everyone wanted to spend time with him.” “Not only did he serve on the governing board for 15 years straight, he was the treasurer of the Foundation board,” said Michael Berger in his eulogy at Lloyd’s funeral, held Thursday, June 30 at 10 a.m. at Mount Sinai Memorial Park in Simi Valley, Calif. “Being a 501C3, it was a lot of work, including all the accounting, annual reports and tax returns. In those 15 years, he never charged the club a penny. The money he saved the club went to support a local charity in our community every year.” The service organization devoted part of its meeting Wednesday to remembering his legacy. “Lloyd has been a great Rotarian, always helpful with SCV Rotary books and foundation billing and audits,” Jim Lentini said. “He always supported our functions, offering his home, and his family was always involved and supportive. Lloyd was a wonderful family man, always having his family first and being involved in our Rotary programs and what’s important in support of our community. Because of his support and giving demeanor, many of our Rotarians were clients of his firm.” Professional Lloyd was a senior partner at Stern, Kory, Sreden & Morgan in Stevenson Ranch, Calif. “Lloyd had a stellar reputation,” Berger said. “The ultimate professional. Over the past few days I have heard so many people telling me how much they trusted him and how he has made such a positive difference in their business.” Personal “His favorite things that I know of were his family … golf, and he loved the Dodgers, even when they let him down,” Morgan said. “He also loved his dogs.” Called “the ultimate prankster,” one of Lloyd’s tricks involved swapping his yellow Labrador with the neighbor’s, seeing how long it took the dog-sitter to catch on. “He loved to laugh and he loved to play practical jokes on people,” Morgan said. “It made his day when he could successfully do something like that, and he loved retelling the stories.” Steve Corn, Lloyd’s friend of many years, listed some of his favorite pranks. “He’d un-strap your golf bag, and when you drove off in the golf cart it would fall off the back. He’d use exploding golf balls on unsuspecting golfers. He put itching powder on one guy’s neck at a Dodger game. … At Rotary, if you got up he’d put salt in your ice Lloyd’s sense of humor was a natural part of his personality, according to friends and colleagues. Many of Lloyd’s friends voiced their sadness at his passing. “I knew Lloyd to be a loving family man and upstanding community and business leader,” Tom Christensen said. “He was generous with his time, his talents, and financially. I was lucky enough to have called him a friend. He will be missed.” Lloyd is survived by his parents, Barry and Maxine; his wife, Vicky; and his children, Matt (Jessica), Mandy and Travis. “Looking at him as a man and as a friend, husband, dad, brother and son, it’s hard to find anybody more dedicated to those around him, so concerned about others,” Corn said. “He’s taught us all to relish every minute, to be grateful.” Rotary President Louis Esbin sent a letter to members with a take-away that would honor Lloyd Sreden. It said, “May his smile, wit, humor, good nature, and legacy of service above self guide each of us in our own lives.” The attorney that helped broker the incredible media deal that called a cease fire in the battle between the Signal and Gazette can help you!

From the outside looking in, the fight was nothing more than two people sitting on a couch and staring at a screen, but once one took a seat and began to watch, he would see a bout unlike any he had seen before. This visitor has stepped into the world of competitive Super Smash Brothers Melee (SSBM), where every manipulation of the game is calculated and pride and money are on the line. SSBM was released for the Nintendo GameCube in 2001, as a sequel to the wildly popular Super Smash Brothers, which was made for the Nintendo 64. The premise is simple: Famous Nintendo characters fight one another until one is eventually the victor. And, while the game controls were made to be simple as well, competitive SSBM players have been, and still are, finding new ways to use all the tools the game provides and turn them into unbeatable strategies. “We’re still finding stuff in the game,” Ryan Reagan, one of the founders of the SCV Smash community, said. “There’s so much control over what you can do.” In the competitive SSBM world, the general consensus is that Southern California produces the best talent, so making a name for one’s self out of this region is extremely difficult. For David Nevers, Ryan Reagan, and Ben Janusek, their love for the game over the desire to become a professional SSBM player is what compelled them to create the SCV Smash community. “The entire global Super Smash Brothers scene exists on Facebook pages,” Reagan said. “I wanted to see who was playing in the SCV, so I created the Facebook page to see if it caught on.” Ryan’s Facebook page was only the first piece of the much larger puzzle that is the SCV Smash community. On the other side of Santa Clarita, Ben and his friend, Adrian Fierro, attempted to go from casual to competitive play through the help of online forums, live streams of tournaments, and documentaries. After hosting house tournaments with the same players, Janusek and Fierro wanted to test their newfound skills against other competitors in the valley. “I messaged David [Nevers], and he was the first one to get back to me; we started talking,” Janusek said. “Because David brought his group to the Thursday tournaments, he told me to join the Facebook page. I think that was the beginning.” 7 T As Janusek and Fierro’s tournaments began to grow, the SCV Smash Facebook page grew right along with it. “Then the page exploded,” Janusek said. “So we started doing tournaments for two dollars, and the community started to take shape.” The increasing interest in competitive SSBM tournaments was a positive sign for Nevers. However, he knew that for the SCV Smash community to garner any legitimacy, there would need to be a shift from unofficial house tournaments to more professional competitions at gaming establishments in Santa Clarita. “We started doing [SSBM] tournaments at the Gaming Attic once a month,” Nevers said. “We had two really big tournaments, but after that, the tournaments started dying out.” Despite the waning interest in the SSBM tournaments at the Gaming Attic, Nevers had seen just how big the Super Smash community in Santa Clarita was and didn’t want to see it disappear. With what he learned about hosting tournaments from his experience with the Gaming Attic, Nevers decided to create his own and, after searching for the right venue, he found it at Tapped Out Gaming in Valencia, the current location of weekly SSBM tournaments every Tuesday night in Santa Clarita. “They did [SSBM] tournaments before, and they were already thinking about it; they just needed someone to reach out to them,” Nevers said. “I started doing monthly tournaments, and we got 40 people right at the start.” Now, with a dedicated following and a legitimate venue to host tournaments, Nevers has hopes that the SCV Smash community will stay strong and grow even more in the future. “I want people to have a good place to practice and hang out at the same time,” Nevers said. “I just want to make sure that the SCV is ready to be passed on to the next person who’s ready to lead it.” Janusek echoes Nevers’ statement and is happy to see just how much the community has progressed from the small house tournaments he hosted with Fierro. “We have what I wanted,” Janusek said. “We have this community; it’s consistent; it’s great, and the potential is all here now.” The SCV Smash community is still working on making a name for itself against rival regions, like the San Fernando Valley and Ventura Coun- he Canyon Theatre Guild production of “Hello Dolly” closed last Sunday, sending theatergoers out onto the Main Street sidewalks humming many of the show’s infectious tunes. The story of matchmaker Dolly Levi as she cleverly manipulates “half a millionaire” Horace Vandergelder into marriage is filled with unforgettable melodies – from the toe-tapping beats of “Put on Your Sunday Clothes” to the lyrical strains of “It Only Took a Moment.” Featured in the title role was Lori D’Itri who could give Barbara Streisand a run for her money when belting out Jerry Herman songs like “Before the Parade Passes Me By,” and “So Long Dearie.” Then there was Jeff Lucas as Horace. Jeff can express more emotions with his eyes and eyebrows than most people can with their whole bodies. And if there were any doubts about our community theatre’s ability to attract musical talent, they were happily quashed by the quality vocals resonating from the ensemble, as well as the main characters. As CTG productions like “Spamalot,” “Grease,” and “Happy Days” have shown, local musical aptitude abounds in and around the Santa Clarita Valley. The early days when dramas and comedies dominated the seasonal offerings are gone. That’s not to say that audiences weren’t thoroughly entertained by the performers in the ‘70s, and ‘80s. It’s just that as our valley has grown, so has our local talent pool – along with the CTG home stage. In the start-up days, nurtured by stalwarts like Carmen and Joe Sarro, Rick and Barbara Huntington, Ron and Paula Carlson, Phil and Mary Noel, Nancy Albrecht, and Bob and Evelyn Reed, the troupe bounced around from venues such as The Rafters (upstairs at the old courthouse), The Hart High and Placerita Junior High multipurpose rooms, The Glass Bottle Blowers Hall (a Thatcher Glass recreational site) and The Storefront (located in a strip mall near the intersection of Sierra Highway and Soledad Canyon). For a time, residents also made the trek up Sierra Highway, where CTG members had converted an abandoned set at Callahan’s Old West into a nostalgic play- ty, in competitions where area codes carry the reputation of the entire city. And, although the 661 is not quite at the top of the pecking order yet, the diligence of Nevers, Reagan, and Janusek has helped Santa Clarita come this far, and will only help the SCV Smash community moving forward. Mr. Sports Santa Clarita Shoutout The Santa Clarita Blue Heat greatly improved its standings in the United Women’s Soccer (UWS) Western Conference with a 2-1 victory over the conference-leading Real Salt Lake Women. Real Salt Lake got off to a fast start, when Katie Rigby lobbed a shot over Blue Heat goalie, Jojo McCaskill. It house. As a bonus, the long trip could also be accompanied by continental dining at Juan Alonso’s restaurant, Le Chene. In the early days, productions featured dramas like “Rashomon,” and comedies like “Norman, Is That You?” – plays that created many noteworthy memories. One such moment in the ‘70s involved professional actor and SCV resident Cal Bartlett. Cal, who had been featured in billboards all over L.A. as “the Marlboro Man,” created a stir in the hearts of local ladies as the bandit in “Rashomon.” Cal’s leading man looks and Tarzan physique evoked starry-eyed squeals when his leather costume was cut-off in the sword fight scene revealing a sexy thong underneath (sewn specially for the play by Cal’s wife, Sally). And who can forget the storybook ending created in the 1980’s drama “Dracula,” when the on-stage sparks between co-stars Toni Tatum and Steve Sarro turned into a real-life romance and marriage. Today’s CTG productions have been built on a solid 46-year foundation culminating in a permanent home on Main Street, where leaders like executive and artistic director TimBen Boydston, Greg and Patti Finley, Brad and Laura Peach, Michael Davies, Sharon Cummings, Jim and Pat Robinson, and Michele Krantz joined with some of their predecessors to usher in a new CTG era. Funding for the construction of the 6,000-square-foot building with its Western-Victorian theme has come from a City Redevelopment grant, and local business and individual donations. Pair that with thousands of work hours put in by volunteers and you have today’s up-to-date theatre. Audiences may have waved good-bye to “Hello Dolly,” but more musical entertainment is in store beginning July 30 with the Righteous Brothers’ story, “That Loving Feeling.” The production will run in July and August along with the Santa Clarita Regional Theatre’s offering of “The Wizard of Oz” musical to be held at the COC Performing Arts Center. Visit the website www. canyontheatre.org for show dates and ticket information. took the women of Santa Clarita only eight minutes to tie up the game, when Melissa Fernandez scored in the 20th minute off an assist from Mele French. The Blue Heat and Real Salt Lake Women began the second half tied 1-1 before Kassandra Massey gave Santa Clarita the lead, and the game, with her goal in the 56th minute. The Santa Clarita Blue Heat now sits in third place in the UWS Western Conference, behind Real Salt Lake and the Houston Aces. The Blue Heat will have a chance to take the lead in the conference on its two-game trip to Colorado, where the team will face the Colorado Storm this Saturday and then the Colorado Pride on July 10.

Jul 1 - Jul 7, 2016 Your Hometown News and Classifieds 9 OPINION Brexit, Coastal Thinking Insanity: Repeating the Same Behavior and Expecting a Different Result and Immigration By Robert Patrick Lewis Contributor I f you’ve been anywhere but under a rock or hiding in cave this week, you must have heard about the UK’s vote to leave the European Union, cleverly tagged as “Brexit.” Aside from pundits and talking heads making wild assumption after wild assumption about an issue with so many variables and unknowns that nobody can make an honest, informed prediction at this point, what scares me the most is the misinformation, misdirection and positioning already taking place. But it’s quite easy to see why it’s happening. I attribute this to what I’ve heard as “coastal thinking,” which I’m sure in the UK should be called “Londoner thinking.” If you have a look at the voting demographic maps (which is, interestingly enough, color-coded blue vs. red) you’ll see what I’m talking about immediately, as is evident in any political election here in the U.S. The Donald Trump protesters are only fueling the fire of that sentiment by waving Mexican flags at protests on U.S. soil and burning American flags outside of his rallies. When asked his opinion of the financial fallout from this vote, Danilo Onorino, portfolio manager at Dogma Capital SA in Switzerland, said, “Polls ahead of the referendum misled investors, because they were analyzing the wrong sample of population. … The polls were made mainly in London, Manchester and the big cities. The polls were ignoring the peripheries.” And that’s precisely what “coastal thinking” is. Here in the U.S., much like London for the UK, the vast majority of our news, entertainment, advertising, finance, politics and celebrity gossip emanate from either New York City or Los Angeles (the east and west coasts). Many involved in these industries have a tendency to “breathe their own air,” or spend all of their time only in circles with other “coastal thinkers” in their own little bubble of existence. Because all of their time is spent in this bubble of thinking, breathing the recycled air of liberal ideas and leftists policies, they quickly forget that the vast majority of the country (either the U.S. or UK) don’t see things from their point of view. And those “flyover states” may not be as densely populated, but make up a large portion of the population (and landowners) of both the U.S. and UK. Because this vote counted people rather than using the ridiculous practice of electoral college, the power of numbers was greatly shifted from those areas of “coastal thinking” to the majority of the UK outside of London and Manchester, who make up most of the population. Ireland and Scotland seem to be reported as almost 100 percent in the “stay” camp, which seems counterintuitive, given that both have fought to be separate from the UK for generations. Scotland recently held a referendum to leave the UK (which they are threatening to do again now), but I don’t want to digress too far from my main point. This “coastal thinking” is a large part of why the market rallied Thursday, as the financiers in London went “all in” on the thought that the “stay” camp had a lock on the vote, and the rest of the world followed. When they realized they had forgotten about the vast numbers outside of London who didn’t share their thinking, it was too late. After-hours trading, futures and currency valuations tanked immediately. But one thing bothers me more than the inability of people in coastal locales to see the greater discontent outside of their own bubbles: the incorrect framing and repositioning of the reason behind this vote. I’ve been paying attention to the polling and reporting on this issue since it began. I’ve seen that every article I’ve read or talking head I’ve heard brings up the issue of immigration as either a footnote, or they incorrectly label it as xenophobia, or Britons being afraid that immigrants are stealing their jobs. With an employment rate of around 72 percent in the UK prior to the vote, this would obviously be an incorrect assumption, which is proven if you listen to the responses of actual people of the UK (outside of London). In “coastal thinking” circles, it’s much easier to just label someone a racist, sexist or xenophobe when they don’t follow your ideology, but that will never truly move an issue forward if you refuse an attempt to get to the root cause of the issue. Throwing blanket labels and insults stops the conversation dead in its tracks and kills any hope of progress beyond that point. So, while London, New York City and Los Angeles-based news networks were claiming bigots and xenophobes were worried about immigrants stealing their jobs, actual Britons were giving an entirely different reason: the preservation of British culture. London, much like New York City or Los Angeles, has been a melting pot of cultures for much longer than you or I have been around. But there is a key difference between how it existed in those bygone decades and how it exists today in a way that is alarming to many Britons by birth. Contrary to current U.S. military pol- Andrea Slominski Contributor L et’s start this contentious conversation by stating the obvious; no law is perfect. But, we have to do something about gun control. No law prevents individuals from breaking that law. Does that mean there should be no laws, only suggestions? Should we suggest that drivers stop at a red light? Should we suggest that babies ride in car seats? In the U.S. each year, over 108,000 people are killed by guns, the Brady Campaign says. This includes suicides, attempted suicides, murders, unintentional shootings, and police intervention actions. A BBC report says, “There were 372 mass shootings in the U.S. in 2015, killing 475 people and wounding 1,870, according to the Mass Shooting Tracker, which catalogues such incidents.” The Mass Shooting Tracker?! It has gotten so violent here in the U.S. that we have invented a tracker, just in case we lose count. The Washington Post published a detailed breakdown of shootings from August 1, 1966 to June 13, 2016. It said the shooters had an average of four weapons each. And one of them had seven. From the shootings we know about, 39 weapons were purchased illegally and 140 were legally obtained. I really don’t care about the details of the automatic, semi-automatic, 10-round clip or 30-round clip debate. I grew up shooting shotguns, rifles and handguns; we even had the equipment to reload our own shotgun shells. I am not unfamiliar with guns; I don’t want to abolish the Second Amendment. (Although it takes a lot longer to reload a musket than you think.) I do believe we have to do something to curb gun violence here at home. There is no reason on God’s green earth that we cannot have mandatory state or federal (I don’t care which) background checks for everyone buying a gun from any icy, when the British empire was in the process of colonizing the world, the first thing they did was enact British cultural norms. The locals were taught the British way of doings things in everything – from the military and business to speaking and culture. This may make you a bit upset to hear, thinking “how dare they invade a country and force their own culture upon the populace?” But this is precisely what Britons feel is being done to their country right now. Their opposition to immigration is not one of xenophobia, but rather an attempt to maintain their British way of life. Much like the U.S., Britain is a nation of many cultures brought together in a single place and celebrated. But lately, many of those cultures refuse to assimilate to the “British way,” and it’s changed the balance dramatically. Nobody really knows where the chips will fall on this, and I’d suggest being wary of anyone who claims they do dealer or any private party in the U.S. If you need a gun faster than a background check can be completed, I say you are most likely thinking about committing a crime. How many impulsive murders or suicides could be prevented by the background check pause? NO FLY-NO BUY IS A NO-BRAINER. If you don’t like that because there are people who have been mistakenly on the no fly list, then we need to set up a better review process for that super secret list. And lastly, no civilian NEEDS an automatic, rifle-styled weapon that is similar to those used in the military. Why isn’t owning a handgun, or a rifle that is not semi-automatic or automatic, or a shotgun enough? What are you hunting? What are you protecting that you can’t do it with Glock, a Beretta, a Sig Sauer, a Smith and Wesson or other handgun? Many of these are already semi-automatic! I know that handguns are responsible for many deaths in mass shootings. But I am a realistic woman. We will never get anything passed on ending ownership of handguns. The mythos of the Wild West has a permanent place in our ethos. But we can be more careful about who purchases them. While we’re at it, no one who has a police record involving mental instability, violence, or an FBI record –- regarding suspected terrorism links — should be able to purchase any gun. Period. If we gave up some of our phone and internet privacy to monitor terrorism and keep us safe from threats outside the homeland, how is this different? We have to do something; otherwise it’s repeating the same actions and expecting a different result: insanity. (especially in investments). This will be a long, involved process, and may take years to fully re-write the rules and agreements between the UK and EU. But it does go a long way to explaining similar sentiments currently held by many in this country. Our country is also one built by a nation of immigrants, but also has its own very unique culture. The Donald Trump protesters are only fueling the fire of that sentiment by waving Mexican flags at protests on U.S. soil and burning American flags outside of his rallies. The coastal news agencies quickly flock to label Trump and his supporters as racists and xenophobes, when in reality they are just proud Americans who don’t like seeing America stretch her arms to people who come to this country and refuse to adopt our culture. Coastal thinking labels it as hate for another culture, when in reality it’s nothing more than a profound love of your own culture. **The Views and Opinions expressed in these columns are those of the writer, not necessarily those of Valley Publications/Santa Clarita Gazette.** Call Santa Clarita Gazette & Free Classifieds at 298-5333 to place your FREE classified ad today! 10 SANTA CLARITA GAZETTE & FREE CLASSIFIEDS Over & Over and Expecting Different Results: Another terrorist attack (in Turkey) and the same questions pop up about how to stop them. Of course, nothing will change with our efforts, thus the quote about the definition of insanity. The Donald wants to change our direction regarding the way we fight these chicken crap bastards, but all he gets back is wringing of hands and peeing of pants from the people who like the definition of insanity. Why? They are too fearful of being politically incorrect; all the while, we just wait for the next terrorist shoe (bomb) to drop. What causes the worst panic attacks is when Trump touts the benefits of water boarding, and even suggests harsher torturing to get information that could save lives. His point is these guys shoot, bomb, burn, drown, decapitate their enemies, and then sit around and laugh at us for being afraid to cause them some water discomfort. Let’s stop the insanity and try something that may stem the tide of murder and maiming. A Short Plea for Reconsideration: I’ll be all over this one in later rants, but to you guys and gals who are rooting for Hillary because of your dislike for Trump, I really hope you reconsider your thought process. I would ask you to please, at least research excerpts from recent books and released congressional reports about her decisions, demeanor, truthfulness, true personality, real motives and of course being the only presidential candidate in history to be under a criminal investigation during an election cycle. Don’t be so quick to judge Trump until you have the facts, nothing but the facts, on Hillary and don’t do what many are doing, turning a blind eye to those facts. Help the Daily Paper Lean the Other Way: The Signal is running opinion pieces by leftleaning folks – without contrasting right-leaning views in sight. Come on, you righties out there – I know who some of you are. Sit down and put your right-thinking thoughts down and help stem the tide of the left wing babbling that seems to permeate the opinion pages of the daily paper. I know there are Conservatives who contribute from time to time, but it just seems as though the other side is outnumbering us. The Signal has two or three lefties who contribute weekly; let’s get a couple of righties in there on a weekly basis. The only way that can happen is if someone steps up to the right side of the plate and hits one over the right field wall. Speaking of One of Those Lefties: The consistent weekly contributor to the Signal looks like a nice guy, but some of his thinking is out in left field. He blasts Paul Ryan for not allowing a vote on the gun control bill, but I would ask this writer if he is aware of the number of Republican proposed amendments Harry Reid sat on, refusing to even consider a Senate vote on them? Then he gets on Ryan for his only response to the Orlando shooting being a moment of silence in the House. I say, that response is better than worthless gun control efforts. He goes on to say that nothing is being done to fix America’s mass shootings. You want to try and fix mass shootings? How about your pals allowing the FBI to monitor mosques, common sense profiling of Middle Easterners, wiping known terrorists off the face of the earth, or wait – how about initiating strict restrictions on immigration, having the National Guard pitch in and pre- vent anybody from wandering into our country? While we’re at it, how about some good, ol’ fashioned torturing! These would be a step in the right direction, but your side can’t stomach them, so we’ll just keep doing the same thing with the same results, while your side whines and cries over gun control. Moreover, this columnist glosses over the rulebreaking and embarrassing sit-in by the immature Democratic Representatives on the floor of the House, singing stupid songs from the ‘60s era. He then writes something about the shameful display of cowardice by the Republican leadership. My fellow columnist, I would ask you to address the cowardice of your side, who should be enacting tough measures to truly try and stem mass shootings instead of worrying about politically correct crap that only helps enable the shootings you are grousing about. I’m Freaking Out, Too! Have you seen how people on both sides of the pond have been freaking out about Brexit? (That word took off quickly, didn’t it?) Well, I’m freaking out too! I’m freaking out just like the UK folks who voted to ditch the union. I want to ditch the whole damn bunch of people in Washington who think they know everything about anything that affects us regular folks. Especially the ones who are motivated by feel-good emotions that eliminate common sense from all aspects of their thinking. When the feel-good stuff is crammed down the throats of common sensers from a land far away by clueless socialist types, it can or should bring angst to the people. The folks on the other side of the Atlantic certainly felt the angst, resulting in an upset that has the elites in each country freaking out. Oh, what I would give to have the same sort of revolutionary type thing happen here in November! I’d like a revolution that says we don’t want to see EBT cards being used by apparently able people when we’re in line at the store, illegal aliens being issued driver’s licenses, receiving subsidized health insurance, receiving free care in emergency rooms. I’m not saying anybody with a grave condition should be turned away, but it makes no sense to let anyone into our country on a willy-nilly basis and then give them the moon and stars, contributing to our downfall. You lefties out there, please don’t pull the race and bigot cards on me just because you disagree with my thoughts. I’m as caring and compassionate as anyone, but damn it, this is our country, our land and we deserve to keep it safe, physically and economically, by having some common sense policies! Of course, left wing pundits in the media went right for the race card after the vote in Britain, because that’s the only card they know how to pull when they disagree with common sense. Jul 1 - Jul 7, 2016 There is much more of this type of rubbish I could rant on and on about, but the bottom line is, for the sake of us and future generations to come, we need to do the same shake-up voting our mates across the pond did last week.

But, on the other hand, there are too many at the moment.… Europe, Germany in particular, cannot become an Arab country, Germany is Germany. There are so many that in practice it becomes difficult.” Does this make him a racist with this line of thinking?

By Arif M. Halaby, CEP Contributor F or many retirees, relocating outside of California is part of the plan. Considerations range from the cost of daily living to the various taxes in the state. There seems to be this thought in Sacramento that they can raise taxes on income, increase state sales tax and increase gasoline tax, yet not affect the daily lives of those on a fixed income. Since all of these taxes roll downhill to the consumer, the cost to stay in this state after retirement is often much higher than the cost of moving. How do you make the decision to stay or go? Well, in my more than 20 years of experience as a financial professional, I learned a few things that might help you. First, it’s always about family. If your children and grandchildren live close to you, then the choice to leave is made for you – you will stay. Wherever they are living is where you want to be. So, relocating is a difficult choice. Second is the weather. Many Californians have moved from colder climates to begin their lives in California. My own parents relocated from Michigan in the early ‘60s. They love the area, but disliked the winters. California has great weather and, in fact, some in the state capital believe that regardless of the taxes and fees they continue to raise, that you will not leave, due to the great weather. The “weather tax,” as some progressive lawmakers call it, has a real impact. Make sure the weather of your new home fits your needs. Vacation there through all the seasons to make sure you can handle it. Third is the ability to live where you can thrive financially. Here is a good example. You bought a home 27 years ago and you now have $200,000 in equity. Your home doesn’t even have to be paid off, but the equity can buy a house outright, without a future house payment. Since your income is taxed less (or not at all) and the property taxes are less, you would be able to live like a king or queen and not have to work anymore. There is a big sense of security when you do not owe anything on your house and there is money in the bank. All of the money that you set aside in your 401k, 403b and IRAs will be taxed at the rate in the new state. California has a high income tax rate of over 13 percent. In states like Nevada, Texas, Washington and Tennessee, the state income tax is zero. They may have other taxes, but the overall cost of living compared to California is much lower. Consider all the factors before making the big move. Arif M.

Marina Zeng, a freshman at Valencia High School, has had a lifelong love of writing. She recently sought out a writing contest for students of all ages, but when she failed to find any, the local teenager decided to design one herself. “School writing assignments are often not enough to stimulate interest in writing,” Marina says. “Writing contests can help activate a student’s passion, imagination and creativity, which can benefit them in college, occupations and life.” Entitled “My Dream,” all kindergarten through 12th grade students are invited to compete. There is a separate writing prompt for K through sixth grade students than for seventh graders through seniors in high school. The younger group is asked to respond to: What is your dream? Describe what it is and what you enjoy about it. Be sure to include examples from your life. The seventh through 12th graders are supposed to answer the following: What is your dream and what would you do to pursue it? Describe your dream and how you wish to make it a reality. Be sure to include examples from your life, as well as how your dream could play a role in your future. The team of judges has not been posted on Marina’s website yet, but winners will be notified in January 2017. The first place winner will receive a $100 gift card for Amazon. Second place receives a $50 Amazon gift card, and the third place writer gets a $25 gift card for Amazon. The essay contest is open to all K-12 students in public, private and home schools in the United States and there is no entry fee.

National Trainers’ Award Goes to Valencia High School A local high school has a sports medicine program that got the attention of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. The organization gave Valencia High School the Safe Sports School award, which recognizes champions in safety and secondary schools that provide safe environments for student athletes. The award reinforces the importance of providing the best level of care, injury prevention and treatment. • “Valencia High School sports medicine program has had most of the requirements for this special award for some time now,” said Joe Monteleone, the high school’s sports medicine career path advisor. “Thanks to Henry Mayo Hospital and the Hart School District for hiring certified athletic trainers, we now qualify and reached the First Team status. We are the only high school in the Santa Clarita Valley to receive this prestigious award from the NATA.” • The school’s athletic trainer, Hubert Paz, weighed in on the honor. “Valencia High School is honored to receive this First Team recognition from the NATA,” Paz said. “The Valencia sports medicine goal is to lead our athletics program to the highest and safest levels.” In order to achieve Safe Sport School status, as Valencia High School did, athletic programs must do the following: • • • • • • • • Create a positive athletic health care administrative system Provide or coordinate pre-participation physical examinations Promote safe and appropriate practice and competition facilities Plan for selection, fit, function and proper maintenance of athletic equipment Provide a permanent, appropriately equipped area to evaluate and treat injured athletes Develop injury and illness prevention strategies, including protocols for environmental conditions Provide or facilitate injury intervention Create and rehearse a venue-specific Emergency Action Plan Provide or facilitate psychosocial consultation and nutritional counseling/education Be sure athletes and parents are educated of the potential benefits and risks in sports as well as their responsibilities “We remain committed to the health and welfare of young athletes in competitive sports,” says NATA President Scott Sailor, EdD, ATC. “This award recognizes the contributions and commitment of schools across the country that are implementing safe sports policies and best practices to ensure athletes can do what they love best and have the appropriate care in place to prevent, manage and treat injuries, should they occur.” Call Santa Clarita Gazette & Free Classifieds at 298-5333 to place your FREE classified ad today! 12 SANTA CLARITA GAZETTE & FREE CLASSIFIEDS Jul 1 - Jul 7, 2016 Eric Tovar-Plummer continued from front page Until he had his own restaurant, Tovar-Plummer said, he didn’t feel free to expose his arms because he found people in the community expressed derision or offense. “The area is devoid of any connection to arts or culture because of the religious overtones of the community,” he said. His issue is the disconnect between faith and fact, between science and religious dogma, especially those that require “we accept certain names before salvation, and that’s when it gets ugly.” Tovar-Plummer is quick to point out that he isn’t against religion or spirituality, per se. In fact, he loves Pope Francis because “in an institution with a lot of rules, he’s broken a lot of those rules to be more human, and I can respect that. … He embraces the teachings for what they’re supposed to be: humanity and spirituality.” It’s when closed-minded people enter his store that things tend to get heated, like the time a 24-year-old declared that there was no proof of evolution in the world. In a wide-reaching interview, Tovar-Plummer shared his views on his sense of community, the role of restaurants in building that community, the closedmindedness of religion and what he sees as the lack of any culture in the area. Highlights: Q. Why do you think there’s no arts and culture here? A. Art leaves things open to interpretation, which creates conflict in certain cases. It’s easier to avoid the conversation than to come up with an explanation that makes sense. All the (California Institute of the Arts) kids have this great campus in Santa Clarita and have no place to show their artwork to the community aside from their own campus. … The kids that go to CalArts rent gallery space in L.A. because no one will rent them gallery space up here. If you have a college that’s pumping out artists who go to work for Disney – which Santa Clarita obviously embraces the idea of Walt Disney, and they buy every Pixar movie for their children – but they criticize and make fun of the kids who are going to school to learn to make (those movies). These graduates go to work at Disney but don’t live here. That’s crazy. ... There’s a huge divide out here. I had kids in their 20s who worked at a restaurant I was at for six months (who) had never been to Union Station or Olvera Street, and we have a Metro station right here. … There’s a disconnect from all culture outside that little hill that connects the 14 and the 5. Nobody goes over that divide. Q. Where do you go in the greater Los Angeles area for arts and culture? A. L.A. by nature is not central to anything. Everything is a byproduct of us selling out to the tire and automotive industries and creating freeways and no centralized life. You don’t go to a downtown spot for anything. You go to either Downtown L.A. or Pasadena or Glendale or Venice. There’s no central lifestyle, so there’s no specific area. There’s micropockets popping up: the artist communities in North Hollywood and Downtown L.A. … There’s a reason Burbank’s downtown flourishes: the studios are there. We have studios out here. Why don’t we have a community that welcomes these kids who work on those shows in the city? Q. Have you contacted City Hall about these concerns? A. City Hall’s a funny thing. (You see) ceremonials, you honor some people, you say hi to people in the neighborhood, you go into closed session (and) you make all the decisions, and then you come back out and say good night to people. City Hall, or City Council, or a rotating-mayor system is not going to do anything. It’s always going to be a ceremonial seat. Q. What role do restaurants play in the community? A. They have a civic obligation to build a place where everybody wants to come, feel comfortable and talk to their neighbors, and enjoy food while they’re doing it. … We have friends in the Pasadena area who won’t come up here to eat at the restaurant because they’re a lesbian couple with children, and every time they come to Santa Clarita, people give them a hard time: people saying things to them, or as they’re sitting at a table, people will have their religious conversations right behind them, talking about how it’s an abomination against God. … (My restaurant) is a place of peace where people who look like me are not the only ones who feel welcomed. When I bought this place a year ago, 90 percent of the clientele were (at least) 65 and retired. Now, you have families and retirees, and our retirees are our regulars. people. “Not everyone feels like you do,” and I will ask them to leave. I’m just trying to create love in a building that I live in the most hours of my life. Q. What’s your view of religion, spirituality and the afterlife? A. As long as we’re decent human beings, that’s all that really matters in the eyes of any deity or spiritual being. This paradise afterlife is more population control than anything else. We are forced to accept a seven-day workweek, and all the trials and tribulations of everyday life, because if in the end we found the right religion, then it was worth it. It was a test to earn eternal paradise, but the reality of paradise is (here). We live in paradise. We live in these perfect conditions where we have the ability to love people and walk outside and enjoy the world around us. That is the most paradise I can imagine: the ability to share conversation and knowledge. We don’t need anything better. We just need to learn to respect each other. You behead John the Baptist for practicing baptism, but now to be accepted into God’s grace, you have to be baptized. It’s super crazy. … (Yet) spirituality is great. When people pray over the food, I’ll wait until they’re done (before I put more on the table) because I respect and appreciate spirituality. But when that spirituality doesn’t embrace everybody, then I get upset. Q. You should have been born in the 1960s. Don’t you wish you were, instead of 1979? A. We live in a time where nobody does anything about it. All they do is complain. They don’t do anything because we live in a lazy, lethargic social-media-overwhelmed world. If people were being treated this way in the ’60s, there would be a small group of people protesting. Now, people think if they put a hashtag – which used to be a pound symbol – in front of a word and out it in cyberspace, you’re part of a revolution. You’re not. You’re nothing. You’re sending your words into oblivion. Nobody cares, and if anybody clicks that they like your picture, that’s all they did. You made zero change. Q. You don’t sound like you have much faith in humanity today. Do you? Q. Do you have your limits? A. For sure. I have two small children, and I live in a time where we should know better, but there is no end in sight to the stupidity.

Alzheimer’s Greater Los Angeles Grows to Serve SCV By Martha Michael Gazette Editor A s the number of individuals battling Alzheimer’s disease increases, the need for support rises too. The good news for local residents is that a non-profit group noted for its successful work with the families of Alzheimer’s patients has extended its reach to include the Santa Clarita Valley. The Santa Clarita office of Alzheimer’s Greater Los Angeles opened on June 20 in Valencia. “With the opening of this office, we are bringing over 35 years of experience helping individuals and families affected by Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias,” said Terry Garay, regional director, San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valleys. “Based on the number of calls we’ve received since we opened, and the number of people we have spoken with, it is clear that this valley has need for local services. We are grateful for the opportunity to be here meeting those needs.” Last year, the organization served more than 93,000 people, including individuals and families personally affected by Alzheimer’s or other dementias. Alzheimer’s Greater Los Angeles also welcomes the business community and healthcare professionals. The non-profit’s programs and services are all offered free, including: •Support Groups •Care Consultations/Case Management •Early Stage Services •Memories in the Making Art Program •Memory Mornings Social Support Group •Multi-Cultural Programs •Education & Outreach •Respite Support •Professional Training •24/7 Helpline “With one call to us, you can talk with a caring person about your questions and concerns, you can get connected with others experiencing the same challenges, or you can discover resources available in your community,” Garay said.“Our staff is also available for speaking engagements or to participate in health fairs.” In 1979, the family members of a support group met to discuss the need for an Alzheimer’s organization in Southern California. The organization has grown in its ability to be responsive to the needs of the community. It was an anonymous donation that brought the new office to the Santa Clarita Valley, adding to the grassroots level of generosity and leadership demonstrated by volunteers. “We could not do the work we do without their support,” Garay said. “That was true when that group of family members met to discuss the need for an Alzheimer’s organization in Southern California in 1979. And it is true today! We love our volunteers and donors.” The office is located at 27240 Turnberry Lane, Suite 200 in Valencia. For more information, call (661) 362-0740 or visit Alzgla.org.

Awesometown Vapors is holding an opportunity drawing for an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle on Saturday, July 2. “We were looking for a way to call attention to our right to continue to vape as we see fit,” said Awesometown Vapors owner Guy Casablanca. “We couldn’t think of a better instrument that’s equally demonized than the AR-15 rifle. Besides vape, it’s the most controversial item on the market in the United States.” The goals for Awesometown Vapors’ rifle promotion include raising awareness and gaining public support in the battle for the rights of the businesses. Shop owners believe politicians are currently viewing the cause as just an internal struggle from the vapor industry. So far, Casablanca is seeing a groundswell of local support by the public. The vape industry is objecting to excessive control by the FDA, said Casablanca. “The regulations coming down are so egregious, they are going to put the vast majority of the industry out of business,” he said. “We are not opposed to some regulation. But the industry has done a wonderful job of policing itself. We don’t need the level of regulation; we don’t need to be dumped in with tobacco products because it’s convenient.” By Phyllis Walker Contributor That is Casablanca’s response to FDA questions about the contents of vape juice. “I only use my own manufactured juice,” said the shop owner. “If it’s a better alternative for me, then it’s a better alternative for the average person.” The vape industry is fighting for rights with only grassroots support, so far. “We don’t have lobbyists,” Casablanca said. “It’s a shame this industry is going to fall short because we lack clout, not credibility.” Casablanca sees the stigma of the AR-15 as similar to the image many members of the public have about vapor devices. He specifically chose the AR15, because it has the same length and features as many other weapons on the market, but its appearance casts a shadow over its function in people’s minds. “Likewise, when someone walks by a vape shop and they see that enormous vapor coming out,” Casablanca said, “that is very intimidating for someone who knows nothing about the industry. These two industries are intrinsically linked. Whether you agree with the symbolism we’ve chosen for this promotion, these are both civil liberties we are trying to draw attention to.” going to try to take this device from me, you’re going to get a fight. I know what’s in our e-liquids.” He does not want vape regulations to be pinned to those of the cigarette industry, just because it’s a new device, which takes time to recognize. His hope is that the FDA “reassesses, rewords and reevaluates their stance on vaping,” he said. “Because right now, the FDA is beginning to look foolish. Science is coming out from other parts of world (confirming) that the harm reduction in our device is unmatched, unprecedented. We’ve never seen another nicotine delivery system that has ever worked as successfully at getting people off cigarettes.” Casablanca said he holds multiple science degrees and is board certified in his field. That, and the fact he is a nine-year heart attack survivor at age 46, validate his arguments for the benefit of vape products on the market. “If progress is ever going to be made, somebody is going to have to step up,” he said. “It typically takes a renegade within the industry to put themselves up for public ridicule, before others catch on. We (Awesometown Vapors) have been willing to take the flak.” Saturday’s AR-15 giveaway is aimed at communicating a broad message. “Look at the larger picture of what’s at stake here,” Casablanca said. “The fact that our rights are being stepped all over. That’s the swath we are trying to draw attention to.” Awesometown Vapors is located at 25845 Railroad Ave., Unit 11 in Saugus; (661) 288-1895; Awesometownvapors.com “This device changed my life,” he said. “If you’re Flag Day Tribute at Elks Lodge L ocal Elks Club members performed an annual ceremony honoring the American flag. On June 10, a date chosen for its proximity to Flag Day, which is June 14, Elks Lodge 2379 shared the history of the flag with Boy Scout, Girl Scout and Cub Scout members in attendance. The ceremony included the proper method of disposing of a flag that is ready to be retired. General Washington at Cambridge, Massachusetts, in compliment to the United Colonies. This flag, called “The Continental Colors” and “The Grand Union,” was never carried by Continental land forces, but was used by the Navy. It was the first American flag to receive a salute of honor – 11 guns from the Fort of Orange in the Dutch West Indies. The following includes some of the history shared by the Elks members In response to a general demand for a banner more representative of our country, the Congress on June 14, 1777 provided “that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes of alternating red and white and the union be thirteen stars, white on a blue field, representing a new constellation.” The carrying of banners has been a custom among all people over the ages, and they usually symbolize a concept of the life or government of those who fashion them. From the landing of the Pilgrims in 1620 until 1775, the flag of England was the flag of the peoples of America. The Revolutionary War began April 19, 1775 and ended September 3, 1783, as the colonists began to shape their banner or flag. The Pine Flag was adopted for all colonial vessels, and was the banner carried by the continental forces in the Battle of Bunker Hill. The Southern colonies used the Snake Flag from 1776 to 1777. Continental Congress appointed a committee in the latter part of 1775 to consider the question of a single flag for the 13 colonies. The committee recommended a design of 13 alternate stripes of red and white; and an azure field in the upper corner contained the red cross of St. George and the white cross of St. Andres. John Paul Jones, senior lieutenant of the flag ship “Alfred,” hoisted this flag to the masthead on December 3, 1775. One month later it was raised over the headquarters of It is generally believed that in May or June 1776, George Washington, Robert Morris and George Ross commissioned Betsy Ross, a Philadelphia Quaker, to make a flag from a rough design that was provided. Supposedly, she suggested that the stars should have five points, rather than six. This starry banner was flown at Fort Stanwix (then Fort Schuyler) near Rome, New York on August 3, 1777 and was under fire three days later during a British and Native American attack. The first official salute to the Stars and Stripes on February 14, 1778 was made by France, when the “Ranger” under command of John Paul Jones was saluted by the French fleet on the French coast. This flag was made by young women of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, from stripes of their best colored silk dresses and the white wedding gown of a recent bride. It is said, this same flag was flown by Jones’ ship, the “Bon Homme Richard,” in its thrilling fight by moonlight, upon the high seas with the British frigate “Serapis” in 1779. The original stars and stripes represented the original 13 colonies. In 1796, two additional stars and stripes were added to represent the admission of Vermont and Kentucky to the Union. The War of 1812 was fought under this banner. The sight of it flying over Fort McHenry on September 14, 1814 inspired Francis Scott Key to write what became our national anthem – “The Star Spangled Banner.” On April 14, 1818, Congress adopted a resolution that on and after July 4, 1818, the number of stripes should be 13 and a blue field should carry one star for each of the 20 states in the union; a new star would be added for each state admitted thereafter. Since 1918, the flag design has not changed, except that 28 new stars were added before July 4, 1912. This flag of 48 stars flew over the nation for 47 years until just before the Vietnam War. On July 4, 1959, a star was added for Alaska, our first nonconnected state; a year later, our island state of Hawaii was added. The display of our present flag – 50 stars and 13 stripes – proudly represents our country. It is at once a history, a declaration and a prophecy. It represents the American nation as it was at its birth; it speaks for what it is today; and it holds the opportunity for the future.

All proceeds will benefit Triumph Foundation, a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization that works to minimize the obstacles individuals face after suffering a spinal cord injury and other forms of paralysis. The fundraising event will feature: a Texas Hold’em poker tournament, craps, blackjack and roulette. It will also include a prime rib dinner, music, dancing and silent auction. “For the last eight years, Triumph Foundation has partnered with people who become paralyzed to assist them with triumphing over the new challenges they face and restoring life,” says Andrew Skinner, Triumph Foundation’s founder. “The Let ‘em Roll Casino Night brings the entire community together for a night of fun and celebration of our accomplishments. We make quality of life a reality for people.” Skinner suffered a spinal cord injury in 2004 in a snowboarding accident outside his family’s cabin in Lake Arrowhead. Andrew broke several vertebrae in his neck, paralyzing all four of his limbs and rendering him a quadriplegic. After years of extensive physical therapy, Andrew regained significant function and felt destined for a mission: to help others who suffered injuries like him. In 2008, he and his wife, Kirsten Skinner, founded Triumph Foundation with a simple desire: to bring hope, resources, and mentorship to people who are dealing with paralysis. Last year, the Let ‘em Roll Casino Night raised over $60,000. The organization plans its annual gala to be inspirational, impactful, powerful, and something that will change perceptions and transform lives. The event is made possible through sponsors that include Coloplast, Greene Broillet & Wheeler, Experea Healthcare, SCI Lawyers, Tejon Ranch, Owen Patterson Owen, and Ability Center. The fundraiser is open to the public and tickets can be purchased at http:// SupportTriumph.org or checks can be made to Triumph Foundation and mailed to 17186 Hickory Ridge Ct., Santa Clarita, CA 91387. More event Sponsors and silent auction items are needed. Founded in 2008, Triumph Founda- tion’s mission is to help individuals with spinal cord injury to triumph over their disability and to inspire them to move forward with their lives by pushing themselves to get better every day. The organization provides mentorship, resources, hope and security to people living with paralysis – not just initially when the injury/disorder occurs, but as a lifelong support network. Additionally, the organization holds events that are a captivating force within the Every year 10,000-20,000 people suffer spinal cord injuries in the United States. There are more than 1.2 million paraplegics and quadriplegics living in America today. The disabled population is the fastest-growing minority that anyone can become a part of at any time. No one plans ahead for a devastating injury that causes paralysis because no one expects it. When something tragic does occur, people are not prepared to deal with the challenges. Triumph Foundation assists these individuals to triumph over the obstacles they face. Triumph Foundation supports veterans, children, teenagers, adults, elderly, and people of all backgrounds and demographics. To date, the organization has touched the lives of more than 5,000 individuals with disabilities; given $150,000 in assistance to people with inadequate medical insurance and this year plans to spend $50,000; performed 10 home and bathroom remodels; provided wheelchair accessible vehicles to five people who did not have the means to purchase one on their own; distributed more than 1,000 Care Baskets to newly injured people; and regularly visits 15 Southern California hospitals and rehabilitation centers throughout the Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, San Bernardino, Kern, and San Diego Counties. entire disabled community.

She is quite active so she enjoys walks and games of fetch but her main mission in life is to spend quality time with her humans. She’s a smart deaf girl who knows her commands (sit, stay, come, no....), is schooled in going potty outside and will blossom even more with additional bonding and attention. Gracie is a graduate of our Intermediate Obedience class! She has passed the Canine Good Citizen test and is eligible for certification. Gary and Shady are purebred male black Labrador Retrievers. Gary is three years old, and Shady is four. They found themselves in a kill shelter when their Mom passed away very suddenly. They have typical labbie happy temperaments, and are very bonded to each other. Gary and Shady are trained, housebroken, and very well behaved. They are a turnkey pair of dogs who really need a forever home together. To meet any of these dogs, please fill out an application for adoption: Visit for Rescued Animals and New Clients Wyatt is a deaf four month old purebred Australian Shepherd. His mom was red merle and his dad was a blue merle AS. He was bred merle to merle, resulting in congenital deafness. He came to us straight from his breeder for proper placement and a lifetime safety net, so he's not had a bumpy road or the baggage that some pups have to endure before coming to us in rescue. He's a perfect little guy. http://www.deafdogrescueofamerica.org/adoption-application.html AngelDogs Foundation Deaf Dog Ranch is the first all-breed deaf dog ranch in the country.

Is it safe? – MP, Santa Clarita Q: Is hearing loss hereditary? – KR, Santa Clarita A: Hearing loss is a major public health issue that is now the third most common physical condition after arthritis and heart disease. A: Ear Candling (also called ear coning or thermalauricular therapy) is the latest alternative medicine practice that claims to, among other things, clear one’s sinuses, relieve earaches, improve hearing and cleanse the mind. A: Hearing loss can be inherited from one or both parents who may or may not experience hearing loss themselves. Estimates predict that nearly half of those with hearing loss have inherited it genetically. The three types of hearing loss — sensorineural (inner ear damage), conductive (outer or middle ear damage), and mixed (inner and outer or middle ear damage) — can happen to anyone at any age for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most common reasons why you might be experiencing hearing loss: Noise — Injury to the delicate hair cells in your ears, from sudden or prolonged exposure to loud noises, can result in temporary or permanent hearing loss. Trauma — An object inserted into the ear, viral infection, explosion, or pressure differences (think plane travel or scuba diving) can cause trauma to the eardrum. Presbycusis — Age-related hearing loss occurs in one out of three people over the age of 60 and in twothirds of people over the age of 70. Ototoxicity — Although a medication’s benefits typically outweigh the risks, such as chemotherapy to treat cancer, medications can cause hearing loss. Fluid — Abnormal fluid in the middle or inner ear can cause hearing loss and other symptoms like ringing in the ears, vertigo and/or nausea and vomiting. Wax — Wax lubricates, protects and helps keep ears clean, but too much can impede hearing. Diabetes — The circulatory issues that diabetics face due to glucose overload also means they are more likely to suffer from hearing loss. The procedure involves a patient lying on his/her side with a special plate above their ear. A cone-shaped object covered in wax or paraffin is then stuck into the ear and lit on fire. This is supposed to create a vacuum effect that draws impurities out of the ear. Despite manufacturers’ grandiose claims, the FDA has noted that, “the product labeling is false and misleading in that there is no validated scientific evidence to support the efficacy of the product for its intended use.” The act of ear candling is also dangerous. Ear candles have been known to push wax further down and drop hot candle wax into the ear canal. There are numerous reported cases of hot candle wax dripping onto and burning the user or obstructing the ear canal. Because of the stickiness of the wax, the pressure needed to create a vacuum could actually rupture the eardrum. According to the Mayo Clinic, using an ear candle can result in: •Deposits of candle wax in the ear canal •Burns to the face, hair, ear canal, eardrum, and middle ear •Perforation of the eardrum or other ear injuries There have been reports of home fires, hearing damage and reconstructive surgeries related to the use of ear candles — none of which is necessary. The ear will usually take care of itself and should not need to be cleaned. Having ear wax in your ear actually protects it and helps keep it dry. Otosclerosis — A hereditary disorder causing progressive deafness due to overgrowth of bone in the inner ear, it may be accompanied by ringing in the ears. Genetic hearing loss can be present at birth or can show up later in life in one or both ears. Inherited hearing loss varies in severity — from deafness to mild hearing loss — and can be associated with other physical conditions. Like non-genetic hearing loss, genetic loss can be one of three types: Conductive hearing loss is due to problems with the ear canal, ear drum, or middle ear and its bones (the malleus, incus and stapes). Sensorineural hearing loss is due to problems of the inner ear, also known as nerve-related hearing loss. Mixed hearing loss refers to a combination of conductive and sensorineural hearing loss. There may be damage in the outer or middle ear and in the inner ear (cochlea) or auditory nerve. Genetic hearing loss present at birth is often tied to other conditions as a person ages. One example is Pendred syndrome, a genetic disorder that causes sensorineural hearing loss in children and can lead to thyroid gland issues and balance problems. Named after Vaughan Pendred, the physician who first recognized the disorder, it is the most common hearing loss that forebodes problems with other parts of the body. Pendred syndrome predated numerous studies that have proven that untreated hearing loss can lead to a host of emotional and physical complications. As hearing health continues to be linked to good overall health, scientists also seek solutions to minimize the consequences of genetic hearing mutations.

The comedians were the hottest comic duo in America at the time. They hosted a party for 250 members of the Hollywood press at the old Circle J Country Club, off San Fernando Road. The event also had the world premier of the film at The American Theater, which is where the American Legion Hall is today, behind the Newhall Library. • North Hollywood’s Dick Nunnally, 21, drove up to the SCV’s lonely canyon to practice his quick draw. He attempted to “fan” his revolver and nearly tore off his thumb. Because of all the popular Westerns on TV, a quick draw fad ensued.

The fine print declared that a private company could condemn a private citizen’s property and construct a road through it, as long as the road didn’t come within 50 feet of a building. There were 68 of these private companies operating toll roads in this state by 1878. The SCV had Beale’s Cut, owned by Gen. Edward Fitzgerald Beale. While a toll keeper couldn’t charge unjust fees, travelers could be fined $5 for walking around a toll gate. At our own tollhouse at Beale’s Cut, most of the tolls were paid out in gold dust. As late as 1954, a Mrs. MacAlonan, whose first husband, Tom Dunn, ran that toll house, still had the gold scales used to measure the dust and nuggets. To this day, silent screen actor Wm. S.
