Jason Hodge speaks to a Santa Barbara resident while campaigning near Starbucks on the Mesa. He is running against Hannah-Beth Jacksonand Mike Stoker in the 19th State Senate District Race. Hodge, a firefighter, is trying to overcome a lack of name recognition in Santa Barbara.

DAILY SOUND / Nick C. Tonkin

Hodge wants torescue CaliforniaAs California citizens

watch the state economyburn, Ventura harbor commis-sioner and firefighter JasonHodge believes he’s got theexpertise to come to the res-cue.“I know the importance of

having people in your life thatcare about you, pick you upwhen you’re down, work foryour future, and speak to you

on that one-to-one basis,”Hodge said.Hodge faces off against

former AssemblywomanHannah-Beth Jackson andformer county supervisorMike Stoker in the battle forthe newly drawn 19th StateSenate District.Though the June election is

a “top two” primary, Stoker isthe only conservative so he isconsidered a lock for one ofthe November slots, makingthis contest between Jackson

and Hodge.Unlike Jackson or Stoker,

Hodge comes as a relativeunknown to Santa Barbaravoters. A Ventura Countynative, Hodge said his pas-sion for current events andpolicy started as a child whilewatching the MacNeil/LehrerNewsHour. After helping tostart an online sporting goodscompany and consideringgoing to law school, Hodgeenrolled in the Oxnard FireAcademy after 9/11, and

became a firefighter forVentura County.His work in politics started

there as the political directorfor the Ventura CountyProfessional FirefightersAssociation. In 2010 he ranfor and won a seat on theHarbor Commission for thePort of Hueneme where hecurrently serves.Hodge’s campaign materi-

als paint him as an outsider

and have touted him as the stronger can-didate to beat Stoker in the general elec-tion. In person, Hodge prefers to talk uphis policies rather than put down hisopponents.“I’m running against two people,”

Hodge said.Questions come up about his true sta-

tus as an “outsider” given his marriage tothe second highest ranked Democrat inthe California Assembly, speaker pro-tem Fiona Ma, and having some of thelarger donors of his $250,000-and-count-ing campaign fund come fromSacramento.Steve Barkan, a strategist for Jackson,

said Hodge has been inconsistent on hisstances on taxes and party registration.While not an utter condemnation, Barkansaid it does raise questions on whoHodge really is.“It’s hard to tell what he stands for,”

Barkan said. “And that further raises sus-picions that he’s being bankrolled mostlyby Sacramento special interests.”Hodge points out that he’s only been

married to his wife for four months andhad already started in politics long

before the two met.On policy, Hodge believes that the

economy is the biggest issue facingCalifornia. The weak economy lowersrevenues, contributing to budget prob-lems. Out of work parents, howeverdevoted, dull the aspirations ofCalifornia youth already looking at amore expensive public education system.“If your mother has an associate’s

degree in culinary arts from OxnardCollege and is working as a greeter in arestaurant because that’s all she can get,are you really going to care about goingto community college?” Hodge said.Hodge believes protecting and creat-

ing jobs is possible without sacrificingthe state’s safety or environmental pro-tections. While he’s not dismissive of“green jobs”, he believes California’slaws are robust enough to make any job“green”.“Let’s keep with our environmental

ethic but let’s start focusing on real jobsfor our community,” Hodge said.“Whether that’s in solar manufacturingor helping someone add a bedroom onthe back of their house or building alibrary.”He advocates making California more

business friendly, often a conservative

talking point. But unlike conservatives,Hodge doesn’t think less regulation andlower taxes are the solutions, it’s a mat-ter of the attitude towards businesses.He would start with setting up busi-

nesses with a state planner to show themhow to get their business into California.He said what more “business-friend-

ly” states offer that California doesn’t.He points to his time as harbor commis-sioner for the Port of Hueneme where hehelped many businesses navigate thepermitting process, competing with portsin Oregon and Mexico.“We don’t have to get rid of any pro-

tections or our strong environmentalethic,” Hodge said. “We just have tochange the mindset to, ‘How can I helpyou comply with it?’”While Hodge holds some pessimism

about California’s current status, he’spositive the state can turn it around. As afirefighter, he said helps five, 10, ormaybe 25 people in the county a day. Buta good representative in Sacramento cando even more and he thinks he’s the can-didate that can do that.“I believe that the power of our legis-

lature is that if you’re doing it right, youcan help millions of people,” Hodgesaid.

Psychic pig to make predictions

MONEY

A psychic pig is set to take over where Paul the Octopus leftoff at the 2010 World Cup by predicting the results of matchesat the European championships in Ukraine and Poland.Kiev's city government said on Friday it would wheel out the

porky tipster to give daily forecasts once the tournament kicksoff next month."A unique oracle hog, a real Ukrainian pig and a psychic

which knows the mysteries of football," a statement said."Every day at 16.00 it will predict the result of the upcomingmatch."Paul, who has since passed away, shot to fame at the 2010

World Cup after his feeding behavior was used to correctly pre-dict the winner of each of the Germany's seven matches.He also tipped World Cup winners Spain to beat the

Netherlands in the final in South Africa from his tank at anaquarium in Oberhausen.Kiev officials said they wanted bring similar excitement to

Ukrainians by bringing the telepathic pig to the city's fan zonebefore matches.

by the judges - sets up a final showdown between Sanchez andPhillips to determine who will be named the next "AmericanIdol," a distinction that has belonged to hitmakers such as KellyClarkson and Carrie Underwood, among others.Sanchez has impressed the judges from the beginning of the

current season with her technical mastery of music, despitebeing the youngest contestant at age 16. Singer-songwriterPhillips has won plaudits for bringing his own distinctive styleof guitar playing music to other artists' songs.

Why Europe mattersin the U.S. economyDear S&B, regarding

Europe’s financial problems,what should I pay attentionto? Jeremy – Santa BarbaraWelcome to the masses try-

ing to make sense of thisEuropean debt puzzle. A com-bination of banking, policy,political and social issues.Anyone of those can be chal-lenging enough to predict letalone how they interact.Though the situation is in

flux, there are some baselinefactors which are helpful tofollow in our opinion. Butkeep in mind that when youpiece it together, it’s prettyclear the only reasonable out-come is one that will not besolved overnight.The severity of austerity

measures is worth following,especially as it pertains tosocial and economic change.Some people say, “just cut thegovernment spending and thatwill fix it.” Cut too much andyou cause a recession, whichin turn lowers tax revenue,creating larger deficit gaps,the problem you were tryingto fix in the first place.Finding the “right” level of

cuts will be extremely impor-tant both fiscally as well associally. The social experi-ment can help us better under-stand what may occur here inthe US down the road so wecan prepare better.

Paying attention to creditratings is worthwhile. Asdeficit “gaps” widen, there isfurther pressure to downgradethe ratings. This tends toresult in higher interest ratesthat have to be paid on debt.Though the US was down-graded and that did not occur.But in Europe, they have

not been as fortunate as theirinterest rates have soared inthe “troubled” countries. Payparticular attention to interestrates as they approach the 7%level. It was at this mark thatcountries like Portugal,Ireland and Greece soughtbailout money from theirEuropean neighbors. At theselevels, investors become wor-risome that the costs of bor-rowing may be unsustainableand it becomes more difficultto attract money to supportthe system.The credit default swap

(CDS) market can be

another good indication offinancial health. In simpleterms, these are insurancecontracts taken out to protectagainst a bond defaulting.When you see the costs of thisinsurance increasing, the mar-ket is telling you that concernlevels are elevating.Central banks have histori-

cally been the lender of “lastresort” to help stabilizewounded economies.Criticism has been highregarding the actions bothdomestically and abroad.Aggressive actions havetaken place to slash interestrates and to be extremelyaccommodative (pleasantway of saying, printingmoney, flooding the marketwith liquidity).But keep in mind that the

role of the central bank is tosupport economic stabilityand growth with a reasonableinflation rate. Inflation hasnot been the concern. Andwhen economic growthceased and unemploymentsoared, there were few choic-

Plane blows tire at SB AirportSome air travel was delayed for about an hour on Friday

afternoon after a small, private single-engine plan blew a tirewhile landing at the Santa Barbara Airport.Hazel Johns, airport assistant director, said that there were no

injuries or damage to any other planes.After the blown tire, crews were busy attempting to tow the

single-engine plane off the runway. The incident caused a tem-porary stir at the airport, as emergency crews and police officersresponded to the scene. Airport officials were unable to releaseany other information as of Daily Sound press time.

A Synchronized Approach to Insurance

Let’s talk ...Let’s discuss smart ways to synchronize your insurance coverage and save you money

Always keeping an eye onSanta Barbara thrift stores, Iwalked into our latest newthrift called "Destined forGrace" – The Shop forVintage and Antiques, 2830de la Vina Street, in that littlemall – and was pleasantly sur-prised to find a cute, cleancollection of hand-selectedvintage clothing, bags, china,art and furniture.I asked the salesperson

what "Destined for Grace"was all about – and found outit is not a church organization,but a not-for-profit groupformed by two young localSanta Barbara women to raisefunds for an elementaryschool which they built in2008 in Haiti.The school educates 130

local Haitian students. Ilooked into "Destined forGrace" and chatted with oneof the young founders,Rebecca Costa Smith, whohad just returned from aSpring trip to her school inHaiti along with her co-founder Lindsey Connolly,both born and raised here inSanta Barbara.

Rebecca and Lindsey nowhave three thrift shops in ourarea to support fundraisingefforts for their school inMirebalais, Haiti: Destinedfor Grace, Goleta, 5960Hollister Ave, Destined forGrace, Santa Barbara, 2830De La Vina, Destined forGrace, Carpinteria, 5406Carpinteria Ave.How did this idea turn into

reality? Rebecca and Lindseysaw suffering children inHaiti and formed a non-profitcorporation in 2008 to helpkids there, where even beforethe earthquake only half ofschool-aged children were

enrolled in school. Schoolingin Haiti presently is almost animpossibility, with the devas-tation done to the state's edu-cational hub in Port-au-Prince. But Haiti's educationsystem was poor before thequake – with only 20% ofschools public, the privateschools too expensive formost students, and the cost ofuniforms, textbooks and sup-plies too high. And childrenmake up 45% of Haiti's popu-lation.Opening a school is a bold

undertaking in a place whereso many children go unedu-cated – in fact some childrenare forced to scavenge forfood in the streets, let alonehave the chance to attendschool. The New York Timesrecently reported the story ofteacher Alzire Rocourt, a pri-vate school headmistressbefore the quake, who openedher own school in Haiti'sPetionville Camp. Of the25,000 children living in thecamp, just 260 are in school,reports the Times.So you see what an amaz-

ingly valuable gift Rebecca and Lindseyare providing for their 130 students,kindergarten through fourth grade.Through donations of stuff (call805.619.0649 for their pick-up service)these two brave young women employ a

full time staff of Haitian teachers andworkers to run the operations and over-see the daily feeding and care of thesekids. And it is not easy to get supplies toHaiti – there is no mail system. So thetwo women travel there four times ayear, and in fact welcome volunteers tocome with them to witness and help.The entire school project, up and

going for four years now, is fundedthrough the three local thrift stores. Agreat story if there ever was one, and agreat outlet for your Spring cleaningexcess.

es they had regarding their actions.Last year the ECB (European Central Bank)

provided around 500 billion Euros in shortterm loans to banks so that they had properfinancial support. When you see increasedaccommodative action by a central bank, thatis usually a sign that the “normal” forces in theeconomy are not working at the levels neces-sary to support healthy growth.Here in the US, there are rumors that “QE3”

(quantitative easing) may be coming shortly.The anticipation is for the Federal Reserve totarget the mortgage market in a further attemptto drive down lending rates. Since this is some-what anticipated…funny how the “market” hasalready adjusted as rates have come down ontheir “own.”This is a good example of how the central

banks can attempt to influence economic activ-ity. They may not go out and hire people, but ifthey can try to lower the costs of borrowing,putting more money in the pocket of con-sumers who will spend it or invest it (whichshould cause economic growth to occur).Getting back to Europe, the “bailout” phrase

is going over as well there as here. Unlike the

United States where Federal bailout moneygoes to the presumed collective good of thecountry, the European system is a collection ofdifferent countries.So when Germany, the financially strongest

of all the Euro members is unable or unwillingto continue to support the financial decisionsof their neighbors, that could be a tipping pointto whether the Euro survives or not. Those arepolitics worth following and a discussion foranother day.

EDUCATION

When Santa BarbaraDistrict Attorney JoyceDudley was invited to speakat the National DistrictAttorneys Association by anational research/advocacygroup, “Fight Crime, Invest inKids,” her educational rootswere abundantly clear. Shedemonstrated a spot-onunderstanding of humandevelopment and the criticalimportance of early interven-tions to prevent crimes.

She told the assembledgroup that the traditional roleof district attorneys was to“clean up the mess.”“On a good day, our com-

munity feels justice wasserved,” she told them. “On agreat day our efforts helpedvictims become survivors.”

She said that traditionalrole is no longer sufficient,and that district attorneys areexpected to become leaders inthe field of crime prevention:to fight crime by prosecutingcriminals and investing in

kids.I greatly respect

and appreciate theapproach she tookwith the assembledgroup.

She said thatdistrict attorneyshave all lookedinto the eyes of amurderer. But shesuspected that veryfew had had theopportunity to lookinto those sameeyes when the murderer was achild. Think of the power ifthat could be the case, andpreventive steps could betaken.

Ms. Dudley cited a mur-derer she prosecuted a fewyears ago. She said that mur-derer, as a child, had been thevictim of vicious homophobicbullying. She said she alsoprosecuted a child abuser afew years ago and now one ofhis abused children wasrecently arrested for rape.

Said Ms. Dudley:“In my mind, bothcases stood for theproposition that tofight crime weMUST invest inkids.”

She added: “If Ihad been there tostop the bullying andthe abuse when thoseviolent offenderswere still children, Icould have had afighting chance to

stop those later crimes fromevery occurring.”She admonished the group

of district attorneys tobecome those leaders in thefield of crime prevention andshe laid out a very specific listof particulars to support: highquality preschool education,enticing after-school pro-grams, especially at the juniorhigh level, and truancy pro-grams that re-engage thealienated student.Most impressive about her

talk to this esteemed groupwere the echoes we hear fromthe educational establishmentabout the importance of thesevery issues. What has beenmissing from the educationalargument is the hard factsabout crime and the resultantcosts to society, from a prose-cutor with the vision andunderstanding to lay out thecase so clearly. I salute herapproach and look forward tohaving our offices collaborateto the shared goal of prevent-ing crime by investing inkids—especially those whoare abused, bullied or neglect-ed. It is not only the rightthing to do; it is also in ourcommunity’s best interests.As Benjamin Franklin said sowisely, an ounce of preven-tion is truly worth a pound ofcure.
