La Conchita 10 Years LaterCommunity lives in shadow of tragic mudslide

BY PeTer Dugré

There’s a quaint street stretching three blocks away from the Pacific Ocean and Highway 101 toward the mountains; boats and cars line it, garage doors are open and life goes on. Then the street ends abruptly before the cliff rises up behind La Conchita. A fence and “Road Closed” sign cordon off a heap of rubble, earth deposited from the stripped hillside and underneath it a destroyed home. The disaster zone, which abuts functioning homes, has rested untouched for a decade since 200,000 cubic meters of hillside slid into 15 homes and killed 10 people at 1:20 p.m. on Jan. 10, 2005.

Mike Bell, chairman of the La Con-chita Community Organization, said to recognize the solemn memory of a decade ago, he will sound a bell 10 times on Saturday, Jan. 10, at 1:20 p.m. Those killed were John Morgan, 56; Tony Alvis, 53; Charles Womak, 51; Patrick Rodreick, 47; Christina Kennedy, 45; and Vanessa Bryson, 28; and three children, Hannah, 10, Raven, 6, and Paloma, 2, were killed along with their mother, Michelle Wallet, 37.

Although rubble from the slide is a grim reminder of the tragedy, according to Bell, the community has been rejuve-nated. When the slide happened only a handful of children called La Conchita home; that number has grown to over 20. Families are deciding to start lives in the seaside village that recently had its beach access improved by a freeway underpass.

An improvement that hasn’t seen action is grading or terracing of the hillside that still threatens homes and lives. The State of California, under the direction of then Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, commissioned a geo-logical study of the hillside beginning in 2005, and the study’s conclusions were disconcerting. The report concluded that the 600-foot-tall cliff standing precariously behind 161 La Conchita homes is “an area of very young geol-ogy” where “everything is not stable,” and that it’s likely to slide again within 50 years and wreak $190 million in dam-ages from loss of property and life upon La Conchita.

brieflyFirst Day Hike grows in popularity

This year’s First Day Hike, coordinated by Carpinteria State Beach, drew 75 par-ticipants for a 5-mile roundtrip romp from Jelly Bowl to Rincon Point. State Beach Interpretive Specialist Leanne Roth reported that most of the hikers were locals who had never trekked the route before. The rest were from Los Angeles, Azusa, Thousand Oaks and three from England, who just happened to have seen an announcement in Coastal View News at the right time to join. Roth stated, “On the beach on the way back we saw sea anemones and one lone sea star, and 130 seals hauled out at the rookery once we walked back up to the bluff to bypass the closed beach area. With that many people, we were spread out about 1/4 mile, so many thanks go to volunteers Leanne and Frank Rose who kept track of the hikers at the other end of the line.”

Start Smart promotes safe teen drivingThe California Highway Patrol will hold its next Start Smart class on Tuesday, Jan.

14 at 6 p.m. at Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital, 5333 Hollister Ave. Start Smart is a free driver safety education class that targets new and future licensed teenage driv-ers between the ages of 15 and 19, their parents and guardians. CHP offi cers discuss traffi c collision avoidance techniques, collision causational factors, driver/parent responsibilities, seatbelt usage, etc. Testimonies are provided by offi cers who have investigated fatal collisions involving teens. California teen drivers are found at fault in 66 percent of all fatal collisions they are involved in, although they represent only 4 percent of the state’s licensed drivers. Anyone who would like to attend the class should call the Santa Barbara Area CHP offi ce to sign up at 967-1234.

DUI campaign results in fewer arrestsThe 2014/15 Winter Holiday DUI Mobilization crackdown on impaired drivers

ended with 122 people arrested for driving under the infl uence of alcohol and/or drugs, a signifi cant drop from last year’s total of 146. The operation was conducted from Dec. 12 through Jan. 1 by offi cers from 12 Santa Barbara County law enforcement agencies. This year there was one death attributed to an impaired driver in the area. Last year there was one drug related death during the yearend campaign.

Additional Avoid DUI operations will be held throughout Santa Barbara County in 2015. The next one is during Super Bowl Sunday in February and the following one is in March for St. Patrick’s Day.

A Frame smash and grab caught on cameraA security camera at A Frame Surf shop on Santa Claus Lane caught a burglar in

the act of smashing the glass door and making off with a few thousand dollars worth of merchandise early on the morning of Jan. 4. Shop owner Sam Holcombe, who is offering a $500 reward for information on the thief, said he thinks that a description of the man's truck may be a key factor in locating him. The truck was a white two-wheel drive Toyota Tacoma single cab with a black tool box in the back as well as a black bed liner. On camera, the thief is pictured wearing a ski mask under a rare orange A Frame hat. It took him less than a minute to kick in the door, grab 12 pairs of high-end sunglasses, four to six watches and an entire rack of A Frame hooded sweatshirts. Holcombe estimated that the damages and the stolen items amount to over $4,000 in losses. Anyone with information on the robbery should contact the shop at 684-8803.

Foundation as an example of a possible funder.

In a recent phone interview, Ventura County First District Supervisor Steve Bennett, who has held his seat since before the slide, said the county’s hands are tied when it comes to helping with La Conchita’s mudslide problem. “It’s a complicated issue on private property. The county has found it inappropriate to expose taxpayers to liability involved with doing anything to touch the slide,” Bennett said.

La Conchita suffered a similar land-slide and lost nine homes in 1995, fol-lowing which the county removed rubble to reopen a street and erected a wooden wall. The wall was never meant to be a retaining wall to hold back an avalanche of earth. La Conchita residents sued the county after the 2005 slide and lost when the courts agreed that the county never intended to prevent mudslide damages.

Bill Harbison told Coastal View News in the days following the slide in 2005, “I stepped outside my door and heard a noise, almost like a pop. I looked up and saw the entire mountainside just come down and just race through part of our little town here. Kathleen Wood said, “The retaining wall popped out like matchsticks. That thing just busted.”

Bell laments the inaction and what he views as apathy on the part of the county. Roads remain closed in La Conchita after a decade. “The supervisors meet every Tuesday morning. They discussed La Conchita in the three meetings follow-ing the slide, and the words La Conchita have not appeared on an agenda since,” he said.

When rain starts falling, the mood shifts in La Conchita. The hill moves to the front of everyone’s minds. Bell has a weather station at home and stays con-nected to the forecast while monitoring rain totals. “Whenever it’s raining, we don’t sleep well, and it’s the same for other people in town. But I think with a little smart thinking and weather watch-ing, we’ll probably be okay,” Bell said.

On Jan. 10, 2005, nine inches of rain had fallen before the hill gave way. Mud also flowed onto Highway 101 north of La Conchita, choking any traffic flow between Carpinteria and Ventura for a week. Leading up to the slide, there had been 26 inches of rain in 16 days. Car-pinteria typically gets about 19 inches of rain in a year.

Everyone agrees that La Conchita is still vulnerable. Ventura County will not permit expansions of residences there or anything growth encouraging. Still, the people of La Conchita, a population of around 300, share lives and the risk that the hill could again slide. When the bell tolls on Jan. 10, they’ll remember the struggle and people lost but also the overwhelming support of 150 rescue personnel and countless fundraisers that had people and businesses from Santa Barbara to Ventura stepping up to sup-port the beachside neighborhood.

An apple a dayWhen I was little, maybe 5 or 6, my father once handed me a piece of toast with

some honey and cheese on it. I was a little skeptical. Cheese and honey? “Just try it,” he said. I took a tentative bite and discovered a delicious treat. I have been eating it ever since. I’ve tried different jams, preserves and flavors of honey with a variety of hard cheeses. One of my favorite combinations is fig preserve with the nutty flavored Manchego cheese. They work together well in the same way as apples and cheese. In fact apples, cheese and salads may be one of my preferred amalgamations.

At this time of year, after the excesses of the holidays, I think many of us opt for lighter fare yet still crave some delectable treats. These salads are perfect for that as they combine great, healthy ingredients but do not skimp on flavor and texture. Bon appetit for 2015!

Salad with glazed apples and goat cheeseI love making salads with a warm

ingredient in them, particularly when there is cheese. In this case, it’s warm, glazed apples. When you toss the salad, the cheese melts a little and mixes with the vinaigrette. It’s really scrumptious.

Ingredients4 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored

and cut into thin slices2 Tablespoons butter1 Tablespoon light brown sugar6-8 ounces mixed field greens, preferably

with arugula in the mix1 Tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped1 Tablespoon fresh basil, finely chopped1 Tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped1 Tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, finely

chopped3 Tablespoons olive oilA good aged red wine vinegar or sherry

vinegar of your choice1 Tablespoon Dijon mustardSalt and black pepper to taste5 ounces goat cheese

ProcessMelt the butter in a large skillet placed

over medium heat. When the butter is foaming, toss in the apple slices and sauté until golden brown. Sprinkle the sugar over the apples and cook for a few more minutes until the sugar and butter become syrupy and almost caramel like. Remove the pan from the heat, leaving the apples in the pan until ready to serve.

Place one rounded tablespoon of mustard in the bottom of a salad bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil and whisk

just until the vinaigrette resembles the consistency of a light mayonnaise. If too much olive oil is added the vinaigrette will separate. Stir in one tablespoon of vinegar and whisk until the vinaigrette is homogeneous. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.

Place the serving utensils in the bowl over the vinaigrette; then place all the chopped herbs and mixed greens on top of the utensils. Do not let any of the greens sit in the vinaigrette.

Crumble the goat cheese into the bowl and add the glazed apples. When you are ready to serve the salad, toss it gently so that everything is combined.

Recipe serves eight people.

Facts demonstrate a healthy USA

The political letter in last week’s CVN, “Hope in 2015,” would have us believe that our country is falling apart, with external threats growing exponentially while President Obama turns America into a socialist dictatorship. I urge the author of this editorial to turn off “Fox News” for a moment and view the world in terms of facts rather than political talk-ing points.

In November 2014, 321,000 jobs were added to the U.S. economy, unemploy-ment remained at a low 5.8 percent and the stock market closed out a third straight year of double-digit gains.

The so-called “invasion” of illegal im-migrants that leads to aneurysms among Republicans simply doesn’t exist. Rates of illegal immigration have been declin-ing since 2007, and Obama has deported more immigrants than Bush did during his entire two terms.

Far from being an enemy of law en-forcement, the Obama Administration has militarized police departments by granting them vast amounts of military hardware intended for use in Afghanistan and Iraq.

It really is unfortunate that the Re-publican Party has resorted to masking reality and scaring people to gain sup-port instead of offering actual leadership and initiative. The party has repeatedly failed to put forward anything other than slogans, talking points and hollow plans as alternatives.

In 2015 I expect very little from a Congress that is deeply unpopular and comically terrible at functioning as a leg-islative body. I have hope for 2015 because America is already increasingly prosper-

ous and will continue to grow as a nation under the leadership of a competent and forward-thinking president.

Max ParkerSummerland

Obama naysayers miss the mark

Thank you, President Obama, for all you have done since taking office. The facts will be in the history books someday.

I could sit here in front of my computer and list all your accomplishments, but I think they are obvious to the majority of the people. That is why you were elected a second time.

Thank you for not wanting to be a lame duck President.

Thank you for recognizing that the presidency is a real job, and you are work-ing for the good of all the people.

I hope you and the congress members will be able to work together on the most important issues, for example, raising the minimum wage. President Obama, there is always hope. Best wishes in 2015.

Carpinteria Vons to become HaggenCVN StAFF repOrt

Haggen, a Pacific Northwest grocery chain, is working to purchase 146 stores owned by Safeway and Albertsons, including the Carpinteria Vons store, which is part of the Safeway company. The transaction, which is part of a divestment process brought about by the Federal Trade Commission’s review of the pending Albertsons and Safeway merger, is expected to close late this month, and all the stores should be converted to Haggens by the Fourth of July.

Targeted for the purchase were stores in Washington, Oregon and California that are too close in proximity to remain under common ownership based on FTC guidelines. The conversion to the Haggen banner will start in the north and move south, but Haggen representatives were unable to pinpoint precisely when the Carpinteria store would become a Haggen store. “It will probably be converted in the spring,” stated Haggen’s media contact Deborah T. Pleva.

“The amount of time it will take for a conversion will vary store by store,” stated Pleva. “Some stores can be converted overnight, while others may take longer. Both interior and exterior signage will change at all locations. We think customers will find the rebranding of the stores appealing.”

Other stores in the region involved in the purchase are the Santa Barbara Vons on Turnpike Road and the Santa Barbara Albertsons on Cliff Drive.

Haggen now owns 18 stores with 16 pharmacies. The acquisition will expand the company from 2,000 employees to more than 10,000 employees. Haggen plans to retain the current store management teams and give Safeway and Albertsons employees the opportunity to become Haggen employees.

“Our Pacific Northwest grocery store chain has been committed to local sourc-ing, investing in the communities we serve, and providing genuine service and homemade quality since it was founded in 1933,” said John Caple, chairman of the Haggen board of directors and partner at Comvest Partners, a private investment firm that owns the majority of shares of Haggen. “We will continue our focus on sourcing and investing locally even with this exciting expansion.”

Coming to terms with fashion terms

During a lull one day in the library at La Cumbre Junior High School—where I work as the assistant librarian—I started listing fashion terminology with the librarian. She loves clothes as much as I do, and we had a great time calling out some of our favorite words. In the end, I made a list and it’s quite long. Around the same time last year, people started asking me to define the terms “normcore” and “lumbersexual.” As a result, today’s col-umn is full of definitions and my insights into the curious world of fashion lingo.

Normcore is embraced by men and women who are younger than 30. Some words used to describe this style are unisex fashion, bland, anti-brand, casual, regular, unpretentious, and average. What fun! Those adopting the normcore look are telling the world they are self-aware, having deliberately chosen to look like everyone else. They know that gray sweatpants, a plain blue T-shirt, Vans, and a simple navy cardigan send the message that they are beyond trying to be trendy and noteworthy in their ap-pearance. If this look is the alternative to low-slung jeans and crop tops—even though it is boring—I support it.

Another word that came into common use lately is lumbersexual and applies only to men. Guys who are lumbersexuals wear plaid (naturally), jeans and boots, and want to appear manly. These men are going for an outdoorsy, one with na-

ture aesthetic, and though they are modern, urban men, they want to be seen as all natural, rugged and woodsy. Hence, they tend to sport beards (a whole other

trend I won’t go into today).Now for some of the words we tossed

around in the library that day. Given the limited space here, I will focus on words used for prints and patterns. What is the difference between herringbone and hounds tooth? The former is made up of short parallel lines, coming together in a

LORI COOPERDrawings by Camille Cooper

wardrobewisdom

V-shape due to other short parallel lines sloping the other way. You are supposed to see the bones in a fish in a herringbone pattern. Hounds tooth consists of notched corners (like those of a dog’s tooth) making up a big-checkered pattern. In the past, hounds tooth black and white fabric was used on coats and suits, but nowadays it appears on dresses, purses, shoes and even hair accessories. Today’s hounds tooth fabrics come in a rainbow of colors and can be large or small prints.

Ikat prints were very trendy a few of years ago, and they remain popular in home and fashion design. To achieve this pattern, the yarn is tie-dyed before it is woven into fabric. I see a somewhat ragged zigzag pattern in Ikat. A chev-ron print has repeated upside-down V shapes. Think of the sign for Chevron gas stations.

Animal prints have been wildly (ha-ha) popular one decade and completely outré the next. Right now, they are everywhere. You can see them in natural, ani-mal colors and in crazy and bright color combinations. Most of these are zebra, leopard, snake or tiger prints.

Paisley fabrics came to England via India and are considered a classic print made up of curved, comma-shaped shaped figures, which appear to be swirling. Initially, paisley was used on light wool and silk fabrics, but today it is on everything from nylon bathing suits to canvas slipcovers. Usually the colors are bright and there can be patterns and prints within the figures.

Liberty prints are floral and date from the 1800s in London, England. If you have ever touched a very soft, lightweight floral fabric, it may have been Liberty’s Tana Lawn. In 2013, Liberty of London collaborated with Target to come up with whimsical items such as floral printed bicycles, gardening gloves, rain boots, teapots and tote bags. I have a soft spot for Liberty prints.

Thinking about what new prints and styles will emerge in 2015 excites me. I wonder what looks will be ones we have seen before but have been updated, and what will be entirely unique. I wish all of you Coastal View News readers a happy, healthy, and fashionable New Year!

The grinch who stole the Easy Bake Oven

A woman attempting to stash Christ-mas presents in the trunk of her car found out the hard way that the locked rear to her vehicle may have been shielded from the gift recipients but was not secure enough to ward off crooks. She placed a Kindle Fire, Lego Friends Play Set and Easy Bake Oven, all intended as Christ-mas gifts, in the vehicle on Hickory Street on Dec. 17 and found they were missing three days later. There were no signs of forced entry. The total value of the items was $280.

Going for the GoProA woman reported that her Birch

Street residence had a window smashed and was burglarized on Dec. 22, but the perpetrators skipped items like a televi-sion and Xbox that were intended as gifts and only took a GoPro from a bedroom. The woman who occupied the bedroom with another roommate had recently purchased the camera with a boyfriend in preparation for a trip to Australia, but the couple had split up. Curiously, lug-gage and dresser drawers for the woman who had shared custody of the GoPro had been rummaged through, but the woman who shared the room had her possessions spared. Deputies tracked the ex-boyfriend to an Isla Vista address, but nobody answered the door. At the time of the report, offi cers had yet to contact the suspect.

Bang up jobA woman reported that she was

watching television at her Hickory Street residence on Dec. 20 at 7:30 p.m. when she heard an abrupt and loud thud at the door. She opened up the door to fi nd a leaking beer can on the ground and a hole punctured through the screen by the thrown can. A neighbor said he had witnessed two young men barreling away after he had also been alarmed by the noise. The woman surmised that she had been inadvertently targeted by the vandals.

Walking walkerA man reported that he inched up to a

Casitas Plaza donut shop on Dec. 18 on his walker and left the contraption out-side while he ate at the establishment for about 25 minutes. When he emerged, the $200, maroon, two-wheeled walker was missing. There were no suspects.

Road to ruinA deputy witnessed two cars seeming

to have animosity toward each other and one honking on Carpinteria Avenue on Dec. 21. He followed the vehicles when one stopped in front of the other to impede it in the roadway, and an arm extended out the passenger window to fl ip the bird to the car in the rear. The deputy pulled over the illegally stopping vehicle and found that its driver and pas-sengers smelled like alcohol. The driver,

a 20-year-old man, at fi rst said he hadn’t consumed any alcohol but later report-edly fessed up to consuming three bottles of Redd’s hard cider. The driver was arrested for driving under the infl uence.

Mama’s boyA deputy witnessed a man and woman

who appeared to be arguing in the street at the corner of Linden and Carpinteria avenues on Dec. 21 at 2:02 a.m. and rolled up to ask them if everything was alright. The woman, found later to be the man’s mother, indicated things were fi ne, but the son reportedly walked toward the police vehicle, extended his arm and fl ipped the offi cer the bird. He uttered, “First of all ... ,” but reportedly trailed off into unintelligible murmurs. Then the deputy tried to have a deeper conversa-tion with the mother and son, 37, but the son was reportedly combative, and they were both reportedly highly intoxicated. The deputy found the two had not been physically fi ghting, and the man said he merely was looking out for his mother’s wellbeing on their jaunt. His words to the offi cer remained heated, leading the deputy to believe the man could not be left alone to speak abrasively to others he might encounter on the public way, so deputies arrested the man for public intoxication.

Never bet on the Raiders

A man arrested for possession of a stolen bicycle valued at $4,500 on Dec. 23 reported that it had been given to him as repayment for a gambling debt from a friend who had wagered on the Raiders.

Deputies began investigating the inci-dent when an 8th Street resident reported the lock on the back gate at his property had been busted and the mountain bike was gone. Deputies kept their eyes peeled during patrols that evening and found a man riding an unlit bicycle on Via Real near Cindy Lane at 11:30 p.m.

The man, 21, fi rst said that he had pos-sessed the bike for around three months and had been customizing it. Asked how much it had cost, the man said he could not remember. The deputy then said it looked an awful lot like a bike that had been stolen that evening, at which point the man rethought his ownership period and stated he had been in possession of the souped up mountain bike for a couple of weeks. Eventually, he concocted a story about receiving it that evening from a friend, whose last name he did not recall, and it was used as payment for a gam-bling debt when the friend bet and lost on the Raiders—maybe the easiest part of the alibi to believe.

Deputies arrested the man and re-turned the bicycle.

Warming up

We have had unusually warm weather for so long that I forgot where I had packed my flannel sheets, and when we turned on the heat at our house it had that stale heater smell that they get from lack of use. But winter finally came to the South Coast this December. We may not have snow, but for those of us used to the mild climate, temperatures dropping into the 40s overnight is chilly.

Add to that many older houses are not properly insulated, and the doors and windows in a lot of houses are not efficiently installed or sealed and have gaps that let the cold air in, and it starts to make sense why we want to turn up the heat when it reaches 60 degrees. I am more inclined to put on warmer clothes or add another blanket to my bed than to turn the heat on, but some nights the old house I live in is so cold that heating it up is the only way we will get out of bed in the morning.

There are many things we can do to conserve energy, and heat, in the winter. Outside of simply turning the heat off, the easiest fix to heat conservation is checking for leaks and sealing them. If you live in an old house like I do, there are probably gaps in every window and door that let in the cold air—and everything else. Local hardware stores carry weather stripping for both doors and windows, which is easy to install and can help keep heating bills down

and the dust out. Another simple fix is thermal curtains. You can buy thermal backing for existing curtains at most fabric stores or online and upgrade your existing curtains with some fusible tape and an iron.

If you are thinking about long-term solutions, insulation and window up-grades can make a huge difference in the efficiency of your home. Many older homes are either not insulated or have im-properly installed insulation. Programs like EmPower SBC and Energy Upgrade California can help with financing home upgrades, and EmPower SBC even offers a free energy coach visit to help you get started.

Even programming your heater, which seems like a small thing, helps conserve energy and finances. A pro-grammable thermostat can be set for multiple temperatures at various times of the day and eliminates the possibility of forgetting to turn the heat off before you leave in the morning. At my house, ours is set to heat the house in the eve-ning when we get home from work and in the morning when we get up, but only turns on overnight if the temperatures are very low and is off during the day when nobody is home. This is conve-nient for my household, where we wake up early but are not home most of the day. A programmable thermostat alone can save upwards of 10 percent on your heating bill.

There are other upgrades you can do, both at home and in the office, to conserve energy and lower heating and cooling costs. But simple things like be-ing aware of the temperature changes and not leaving the doors and windows open, sealing leaks in the house and programming your thermostat are great places to start. I tend to still take my mother’s advice and just put on another layer, but most people don’t want to wear their down jackets and hats in-doors. So go ahead, turn that heat up a little. Just try to keep it all indoors.

school notesCMS students seek field trip funding

Carpinteria Middle School sixth graders need help to reach the California Science Center in Los Angeles and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena. Students are seeking approximately $4,000 in order to mainly pay for transportation for six classes to head south to the exhibits, where they will get free admission. Science teacher Kim Castagna set up a donation site at DonorsChoose.org and the page is titled “6th Graders Go to Mars via the Jet Propulsion Lab.” At JPL, students will observe rovers and learn how NASA communicates with Mars.

Ten tons of snow fell at the Carpinteria Arts Center on Jan. 3, drawing over 1,000 kids and adults out to frolic in the frosted courtyard. The Snow Much To Do phenomenon brought more than just the Carpinteria-rare white stuff; the event had families slip sliding on a skating rink with a synthetic ice surface, grooving to the sounds of The Rincons, posing for photos with a friendly snowman and nosh-ing on treats from food trucks parked on the 800 block of Linden. The annual Carpinteria First event continues to grow each year.

Warrior girls soccer wins big at CatalinaTeam eyes Frontier League schedule

BY PETER DUGRÉWarrior girls soccer has experienced something of a rollercoaster

ride to launch its season, and a high point came after a boat trip to Catalina Island on Jan. 3, where the Warriors picked up a 10-0 victory over Avalon High School. The win improved the team’s preseason record to 2-4-1, and sets the stage for a run at Frontier League, where the Warriors hope to fi nd footing after a couple of diffi cult years in Tri-Valley League.

At Avalon, nine Warriors scored the 10 goals. Team co-captain and fourth year midfi elder Kelsie Bryant started the scoring by ripping a shot from 20 yards away from the net. Fellow senior co-captain Lesly Zapata was the only Warrior to record two goals.

The trip to Catalina also served as a team builder designed to gel the team, which will enter the league season looking to get its core of fourth-year players healthy while incorporating younger players into the mix. Along with Bryant and Zapata, fourth-year players are co-captain Alexa Benitez, Giselle Estrada, Monica Garcia and Natalie Saito. Coach Charles Bryant said the big issue so far is “keeping them on the fi eld together and healthy.” Charles stated, “When they are on the fi eld together, we have the potential to be a very good team.”

The Warriors have used the pre-league schedule as a tune up against stiff competition. Following a win and a tie, the team en-tered the San Marcos Tournament, where upper division teams proved too much to handle in four lopsided Warrior losses.

The Frontier League will present a different brand of soccer than the SM Tourney and Tri-Valley League competition from the past two seasons, where the Warriors struggled against the likes of Oaks Christian and Oak Park high schools. “Each game now can go any direction with any of the teams in our league, which will be nice,” Charles commented. “It should be quite competitive from top to bottom, but I would have to give the strong edge to Grace Brethren.”

Cate and Thacher schools enter the league this season and should provide stiff competition along with newcomer Foothill Tech, a school that has players from Buena and Ventura high schools. The Warriors, however, will be without spark plug mid-fi elder Alexa Benitez for four games, and other key players Estrada and Zapata are currently battling injury. Charles said the team will likely be intact by the second half of the league schedule but needs to scrape together victories in the fi rst half in order to be near the top of league standings before playoffs.

Four freshmen are expected to contribute in big roles this year. Defenders Alejandra Alvarez and Alejandra Garcia, goalkeeper Laura Valdez and forward Jenny Alaniz will all cut their varsity teeth on the fi eld. Charles said the backline appears to be in good hands and that Valdez is fearless in goal. “They have incorporated themselves seamlessly into the team, which is sometimes hard to do,” commented Charles.

The team is still trying to fi nd its true scorer, a player that will take the initiative to fi nd the back of the net and rack up double digit goals this season. Kelsie, the team’s center midfi elder and quarterback on the fi eld, led the team in scoring last year with six goals, but on the team’s wish list is a player with a killer instinct to step up in the offensive third of the fi eld. Also returning to the squad will be Megan Durfl inger, Megan Garcia, Jessica Meza and Ava Gropper, and all will play vital roles.

The team hosts Thacher on Thursday, Jan. 8 at 5 p.m. after hav-ing opened the league schedule on Jan. 6 against Foothill at home. The Warriors then visit Grace Brethren on Saturday, Jan. 10, at 4 p.m., a test against the league favorite that could clarify the haves and have-nots of Frontier League.

Ryan and Smith swim from The RockProving once again that it wasn’t impossible to escape Alcatraz for those with true

grit, Carpinterians Tally Ryan, 18, and Hobie Smith, 58, competed in the 8th Annual Winter Alcatraz Swim. The barebacked duo both competed in the skins division in the 1.25-mile swim from Alcatraz to Aquatic Park in San Francisco. Ryan posted a time of 34:28 in the clear, calm conditions. Only 50 swimmers are allowed in the race and must provide a swimming resume to enter.

Boosters meeting postponedThe Jan. 12 Carpinteria High School Athletic Boosters meeting was cancelled, and

the next meeting will be the regularly scheduled February meeting on Monday, Feb. 2 at 6 p.m. in the Carpinteria High School cafeteria, 4810 Foothill Road. Non club members are welcome at the meeting to catch up on fundraising initiatives and learn about the activities surrounding CHS sports.

Warrior boys soccer wins 2015 home openerWarrior boys soccer claimed a 3-0 victory over visiting Royal High School, a Divi-

sion 2 opponent, in the team’s fi rst game of the new year and fi rst home game of the season. Diego Contreras scored the fi rst Warrior goal on a fi rst-half rebound in front of the net. Then Juan Pablo Alvarez drove a left-footed power shot on a 30-yard free kick into the bottom right-hand corner of the net. In the fi nal minute of regulation, Benjie Garcia fed Contreras for his second goal of the match. According to coach Leo Quintero, Eric Contreras led a great defensive stance along with the shutout by goalkeeper Lalo Delgado. “Credit goes to the team for staying hungry and not hold-ing back. We attacked and defended evenly across the board,” Quintero stated. The Warriors play Dos Pueblos and Buena high schools next week to continue the team’s tough slate of preseason matchups.

Warriors dropped by Cardinals

Warrior girls bas-ketball was held to 19 percent shooting, the team’s season low, in a 41-24 loss at the hands of Bishop Diego High School at Carpinte-ria High School on Jan. 5. The Warriors trailed just 20-12 in the third quarter before the visiting Cardinals pulled away. Tori Kel-ley scored nine points; Harmony Reed had eight points to go with seven rebounds; and Annalisa DeAlba led the team with eight rebounds.

Bishop’s Jordan Lily scored 15 points to lead all scorers.

“We played hard against a veteran team,” Warrior coach Dan Mercer said. The Warriors begin Fron-tier League with a game against Foot-hill Tech at Ventura College at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 8. The Warriors then head to Thacher for a 7 p.m. tipoff on Saturday, Jan. 10.

“The Interview”

“The Interview” is not entirely humorless. But by far the funniest thing about this movie is that some dictator halfway around the world thought that it was so seriously provocative, so worthy of outrage, that it called for an act of so-called “cyber vandalism.” This movie isn’t so seriously anything. And it is at most worthy of a languid wave of the hand, perhaps a derisive sneer or maybe—just maybe—a chuckle or two. If you’ve burned more than three calories in the process, you’ve overreacted. So what’s truly hilarious is that “The Interview” has gotten the attention (and profits) that it decidedly does not deserve evidently because Kim Jong-un was so worried about it getting the attention that, again, it does not deserve.

Why doesn’t it deserve attention? Well, just watch the trailer. Also if you want to know the entire plot of the movie, just watch a trailer. Dave Skylark (James Franco), half-Barbara Walters, half-Perez Hilton, has a popular TV show where celebrities debase themselves. Aaron Rapaport (Seth Rogen) is its producer. These two bottom-feeders get a chance to do something important when they land an interview with Kim Jong-un (Randall Park), who turns out to be a big fan of the show. But the CIA wants them to use their insider access to assassinate Kim Jong-un instead.

The rest of the movie is epicycles fluttering around the same plot points and gags. Skylark and Rapaport find out that Kim is surprisingly down-to-earth. Then they find out he’s not. They discover that Kim isn’t so bad. Then they find out he is. They think for just a second that Kim has his own side of the story and really cares about his people and actually isn’t doing such a bad job. Then they found out: Uh, nope.

Meanwhile they ride a tank while listening to Katy Perry, tangle with a Siberian tiger, hide things where even the TSA wouldn’t look, and play basketball with topless strippers. Yes, it is that kind of movie.

But with that said, “The Interview” is not as awful as I thought it would be. It has a certain level of self-awareness to it—awareness that it is, in fact, quite a dumb movie—that makes it hard

to criticize too harshly. James Franco, in particu-lar, should be lauded for the drunken smirk he wears on his glossy, contorted face throughout the movie—a smirk that says, “Yeah, I don’t know what this is either … so I’m just going to be relentlessly goofy.” At least he seems to be hav-ing fun. It reminds me of a sixth-grade slumber party: By midnight everyone in their soda- and pizza-induced stupor is giggling themselves sick over jokes they all know are ridiculously unfunny, but, hey, why not?

Don’t get me wrong, “The Interview” is not a good movie. It is unabashedly dumb—nothing more, nothing less. Its guiding thoughts seem to be: “Wouldn’t it be funny if we made Kim Jong-un do this?” “Wouldn’t it be great if he turned out to be really into Katy Perry, margaritas and gossip shows?” and “Kim should poop his pants at some point, right?”

The lasting legacy of “The Interview” will always be that, once upon a time, North Korea thought it was worth getting bent out of shape over. And yet ironically the only thing less effec-tual—less capable of being taken seriously—than North Korea’s threats is this movie.

“The Interview” is rated R for pervasive lan-guage, crude and sexual humor, nudity, some drug use and bloody violence.

Matt Duncan, a former Coastal View News Editor, has taken physi-cal but not emotional leave from Carpinteria to attend University of Virginia for a Ph.D. in philosophy. In his free time from philosophiz-ing, Duncan enjoys chasing his kid around, watching movies, and updating his movie review blog, duncansreeldeal.blogspot.com.

As the nation gears up for March Madness (starting March 19), CVN thought it would be appropriate to stoke the fire of excitement with an image of Carpinteria’s version of highly competitive basketball. Sports rivals Carpinteria and Bishop Diego high schools vie for a piece of the ball at this Feb. 7, 1978 game.

CARPINTERIA VALLEY MUSEUM OF HISTORY

Modern hotel comes to CarpinteriaWhen The Palms sprung up on the corner of Linden Avenue and 7th Street in

1912, it was the pride of Carpinteria. A Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce publication highlights the brand new 18-room hotel’s “modern conveniences,” including hot and cold water in every room.

For the last half century, the hotel-turned-restaurant has operated under the three generations of the Anderson family. Augusta and Beata Anderson owned it for several years before passing it down to their son Ken Anderson and his wife, Sue, in 1968. Their sons, Bill and Todd, took over when their parents retired in 1990.

The Winter 2015 edition of Carpinteria Magazine includes a feature on The Palms as well as two other longtime members of the restaurant scene, The Spot and Fosters Freeze. Copies of Carpinteria Magazine are available throughout town and at the Coastal View News offi ce, 4856 Carpinteria Ave.

Business HEATs up on Carpinteria Ave.

Boyd

Chef Nikki Dailey has a full menu of cooking classes available from her newly outfitted teaching kitchen at 4642 Carpinteria Ave.

New and improved meals are sure to be emerging from Carpinteria kitchens this year thanks to the recent arrival of HEAT Culinary and its diverse array of cooking classes at 4642 Carpinteria Ave. Chef Nikki dailey has offered in-home classes in the Santa Barbara area for the last two years, and in late 2014 she con-verted a former hair salon in Lavender Court into a fully stocked kitchen and opened the door to clients.

dailey said that the emphasis at HEAT is on hands-on food prep that involves every student. Classes range from six to 12 students, last three hours and in-clude four or five recipes. Equipment, ingredients and cleanup is all included in the price, which is typically $65, and students eat everything they create. The schedule of classes for January and February includes bread basics, sushi, pasta making, vegetarian feast, Spanish tapas and Valentine cupcakes. In a Thai food class on Friday, Jan. 16, students will prepare crunchy cabbage salad with fennel and kohlrabi, Thai fried rice with sautéed pork, red curry vegetables with coconut milk, grilled chicken with sweet and sour dipping sauce and peaches with honey glaze. details and registration for upcoming classes are at heatculinary.com.

If the name HEAT Culinary already sounds familiar to readers, it may be the growing visibility of HEAT’s recently launched food truck, which is parked ev-ery Wednesday evening at Island Brewing Company, 5049 6th Street. The HEAT food

truck serves three meals a day. Breakfast offerings are burritos and burrito bowls, and salads are added to the lunch and dinner menu.

dailey, who has worked in a profes-

sional kitchen since age 13 and whose re-sume boasts a degree from The Culinary Institute of America, Hyde Park, New york, grew up in orange County and has since traveled the world, learning to

cook regional cuisines in their birthplaces. She and her husband now live above the new teaching kitchen and are thrilled to be part of the Carpinteria community.

Clean water commitment places Nomuras in Rose ParadeWade and Roxanne Nomura are regulars in Carpinteria parades, and this year, the local couple landed the much more

exclusive role of participating in the 126th annual Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena. The Nomuras were aboard the Rotary International sponsored fl oat themed “Changing Lives Through Clean Water.” Wade serves on the Rotary Float Ex-ecutive Committee and is a drinking water projects expert for The Rotary Foundation. Roxanne, meanwhile, was chosen to participate for her experience in working on drinking water projects with Wade in Mexico. Thousands of people around the world die each day due to a lack of safe drinking water. In honor of the safe drinking water work completed by Rotary, the riders in the fl oat were dressed in international clothes and represented areas that benefi t from the water projects.

STAR TOURS: Hollywood celebs Ashton Kutcher and fi ancée Mila Kunis were sighted in Carpinteria last weekend enjoying ice cream at Fosters Freeze. Also, Britney Spears is rumored to have purchased a home in the valley, though CVN was unable to confi rm that the pop star will join us in the 93013.

CLASSIC MOVE: The Rincon Classic’s waiting window opened this weekend, but a weak surf forecast convinced organizers to opt out of holding the annual contest until better conditions are predicted.

CARP GIRL COMES TO PRIMETIME: Carpinterian Bo Stanley appeared on televisions around the nation on Monday night with the airing of the season pre-miere of “The Bachelor.” Stanley, a plus-size model, professional surfer and smiling server at Esau’s Café, was one of 30 girls in search of true love with bachelor Chris Soules. Stanley did not receive a rose from Soules, which means that she won’t be back in the next episode.
