“If you can only make a couple of

people feel a lil better each day

then do it.” - Scott Duncan

Sacramentan Scott Duncan loves the art of photography and especially enjoys taking pic-tures of food for restaurants. Recently his tal-ents have afforded him to trade photos for food for the homeless. Earlier this fall, he pho-tographed a bunch of food at restaurants and they sent him home with extras, which he gave to homeless people in town. He says the re-sult of seeing their faces as they get free amaz-ing food has spawned a group Facebook page, “Will work for food”.

His Dec. 2 posting described a lunch he shared in Sutter’s Fort Park with a man named Eric. “We had a few good laughs while he de-molished a salmon BLT from INK. His bud-dy Pat woke up and joined us dancing around laughing at how good the food was. If you can only make a couple of people feel a lil better each day then do it. I’m just glad that my life is exactly how it is so I can make the time to do simple little things like this,” Scott wrote.

Sober since 2004, Scott quit his job to pur-sue photography, which has been also possible since he manages the building he lives in, giv-ing him a free apartment and enough money to live on. “Photography is my passion and I’m glad I found a way to use that to help people when I can,” he said.

From salmon BLTs, to a tostada salad, fish tacos, some nachos from INK, to prawns, fish ‘n chips, popcorn shrimp, “etc etc etc” from Railroad Fish ‘n Chips, Scott has maybe a doz-

en or so business owners hitting him up to contribute to this side project.

He photographs food anyhow for Downtown Grid and other freelance work. With “Work for food” he’ll go in and shoot up to three food items they’d like to showcase on a website for specials in trade for the food which he drops off wherever he finds some homeless that need it. “(I) usually just ride my bike through a park in midtown and find somebody,” he said.

Scott bought his first digital camera in 2006 and spent lots of time snapping photos of his foot on the front porch until he figured out the camera, then he shot bands every week-end trying to get his name out there, which is how Tim Foster picked him up and he started shooting for Midtown Monthly.

Midtown Monthly was his first major gig shooting most of the content and all of the covers for a couple years. In addition, he has taken photos for Capitol Weekly, Downtown Grid, Coldwell Banker, Steve Hansen cam-paign photos, photos for Christopher Cabal-don, Go Raw Foods, Jimmy’s Barber Garage and Mraz Brewing Company.

While he also shoots weddings, events, por-traits and more, with a smile, he said he most-ly loves shooting food because “I usually get to eat it afterward.” That is unless he shares it.

Donations needed for baby basket drive for new moms at Sacramento Life Center

As local women and teens spend the holidays preparing to become new moms in the coming year, the Sacramento Life Center is holding its annual Baby Basket Drive through Dec. 31 so it can continue to provide a basket of needed items to ev-ery patient who gives birth in 2016. Donations can be made online at www.saclife.org. Gifts can be made in any increment, but a donation of $50 buys one basket, which includes formu-la, diapers, newborn clothes, pacifiers and more.

“Our patients may come in for a pregnancy test, but they leave with a strong support system and resources,” said Marie Leatherby, executive director. “We want to encourage women and teen girls and their partners that they are capable of car-ing for a child, and we understand the hurdles that they often face – sometimes as simple as wondering if they will be able to afford diapers. These baby baskets give new moms a boost of confidence and needed supplies.”

The Sacramento Life Center’s mission is to offer compas-sion, support, resources and free medical care to women and couples facing an unplanned or unsupported pregnancy. The Sacramento Life Center’s licensed Sac Valley Pregnancy Clinic includes a primary clinic and two Mobile Medical Clinics that provide all services for free, including pregnancy tests, STD tests, ultrasounds, peer counseling for men and women, educa-tion and resource referrals. The nonprofit also offers a school-based teen education program, a 24-hour hotline and a pro-gram for women seeking support after having an abortion. For more information about the Sacramento Life Center’s Sac Val-ley Pregnancy Clinic, visit www.svpclinic.com. For more infor-mation about the Sacramento Life Center or to make a dona-tion, visit www.saclife.org.

GOS Gallery presents

“Strokes of My Roots and Soil”

Challenging so-cial and cultur-al stereotypes Navi Sandhu is a self-taught Indo-American art-ist who will pre-senting a show of her work, ti-tled Strokes of My Roots and Soil, at the Gos Art Gallery, lo-cated at 1825-2 Del Paso Blvd. Her work depicts different aspects of a woman’s life.

Born in India and raised in the United States, she has an advantage of incorporating both cultures in her paintings. Currently living in California, she holds a bachelor’s in nursing. She continues to incorporate her passion for culture and heritage to give individual iden-tity to her work.

Navi’s show runs from Dec. 10 to Jan. 2. The gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursday through Sat-urday. “Preview Thursday” will be held on Dec. 10 fro 6 to 8 p.m.; additionally, there will be a Second Saturday reception on Dec. 12 from 5 to 8 p.m. and she will give a talk on Dec. 26 from 6 to 8 p.m.

By the San Juan Unifi ed School District

Students and teachers from several San Juan Uni-fi ed schools got career advice and rare hands-on training in welding, electronics and con-struction during a recent in-teractive fi eld trip to Ameri-can River College.

Th e college’s Workforce Development Offi ce orga-nized the “Pathway to Pay-check” event to expose high school students from across

the region to local employers, skilled trades and the educa-tional pathways available to get them there.

Students enrolled in career and technical education path-ways at San Juan, Rio Amer-icano and El Camino Fun-damental high schools and several of their teachers at-tended the event.

American River College President Thomas Greene encouraged students to ex-plore career pathways as a

way to help focus their fu-ture goals.

“It is OK to not know ex-actly what you want to do, but it is not OK to not do any-thing about it,” he said.

Throughout the event, students met with local in-dustry professionals and fa-miliarized themselves with the college’s labs and facil-ities while interacting with professors.

Students listened attentive-ly as the professionals talked about their fi elds and job op-portunities related to them.

David Yee, assistant man-ager of the Sacramento Mu-

nicipal Utility District, ex-plained that there are many kinds of jobs that make up his company, allowing op-portunities for employees with a variety of skills and interests.

“ The company is much more than just the electri-cians seen at houses,” he said. “We have career op-portunities in the legal of-fice, telecommunications, and customer service to name a few.”

The daylong event includ-ed periodic rotations for students and their teach-ers to experience welding, electronics and construc-tion. Each room included a college professor to guide the students through proj-

ects such as making a tool-box and a strobe light. Pro-fessors also explained what it takes to be successful in their field and what Amer-ican River College students do to prepare.

Pre-apprenticeship pro-fessor Rich Stoker shed light on his classroom curriculum and the importance of the construction field.

“ I teach employability skills like construction-related math, tool usage and identification and help students get ready for interviews,” Stoker said. “ We are the backbone of America. We keep the roads working, the build-ings safe, and pipes in the ground.”

El Camino Fundamental High School senior Rob-ert McWalters admired his newly finished toolbox as he explained why he wants to get into construction.

“I’ve been doing this my whole life,” said McWalters. “I worked on job sites with my dad, welding and work-ing on pipes.”

The rooms erupted with excitement and laughter as the students worked on their projects.

“My favorite part was us-ing the hammer,” said El Camino Fundamental High School senior Bryan Men-doza-Ramirez.

El Camino Fundamental teacher Ryan Tompkins said he was glad his students got

to experience time in a lab, given they rarely have that opportunity at school.

Teri Munger, American River College’s SB 1070 CTE Tran-sitions Project director, said she hopes this event will be a tem-plate for more regional eff orts to connect more students with ca-reer pathways.

“How Engines Have Been Hopped-Up Through History”Dec. 12: Since the era of the Model T, folks have been searching for more power from their engines.

gine parts and concepts including cylinder heads, compression ratios, hi-lift cams, fu-els, superchargers, or a combination of any of these automotive engineering topics.

view of a 1937 Bugatti Type 57s, a true modern design exhibiting wild Stream-lining features and a great starting point for sketching the night away. He carries on the night with wine in his hand, and brings us to the floor to talk about design changes that have been made through the decades. Like the 1955 Ford Thunderbird which experimented with a wrap around wind shield and also featured exhausts which exited through the rear valence and small turbines up front in the grill. The second design will be a mid 2000s Japa-nese hardtop drawn in perspective view, in just six easy steps. And the final de-sign, if you are not tipsy by then, will be a 1976 Corvette drawn in five steps. This is a modified perspective technique that is much easier than the normal technique used by designers, and we can do it free-hand. Artists will practice pencil shad-ing techniques on the perspective design and may do a color on the Bugatii draw-ing if time permits. You will get 8-and-a-half by 11-inch handouts of the steps that you can take along with you for future ref-erence! Mr. Vogel will be drawing along with you on a whiteboard and Ann Baum will help you as you draw. We will also have a large view of the steps on an easel. This is strictly a 21 and over class.
