Make Dating Great Again
By Lee Barnathan
Contributor
By Martha Michael
Gazette Editor
If you’ve found that Match.com,
PlentyofFish.com and
eHarmony.com aren’t “making
dating great again,” there may be a
website you can turn to.
When Santa Clarita resident David
Goss bought the domain name
TrumpSingles.com, he wasn’t sure
what he would use it for. But when
he and his friend built a website
and launched it as a dating site,
nobody expected it would be such
an explosive success.
discussing the fact there’s a BernieSingles
site.
“When I was trying to decide what to do
with the site, people said I should do a real
dating website and they told me stories
where politics gets brought up and relationships get destroyed by it,” Goss said.
That question is posed on Smith’s
website, and it’s answered vaguely, as
a 19-second video gives people a
chance to offer one-word descriptions of Smith, the Democratic
candidate for the 38th Assembly
District.
People offer these answers: dynamic,
sincere, competent, incredible and
tenacious. Then you’re invited to find
out more by going to a different
website which, until this week, led
you back to the same video.
“We’re reworking the platform for
the general (election),” she promised
in an interview last week. “Stuff that
was there got taken down.”
It went live May 16 and today –
two months later – the site has
almost 11,000 users. After media
coverage in June, the site gained
4,000 users in three days.
It all started over a game of darts
with a friend, where they were

the primary election was any indication, many people know enough –
and like enough – about her to vote

anyone (44.8 percent) running for the
38th District.

The Gazette
continued from front page
That doesn’t mean she’s well known
outside of Santa Clarita. The district
stretches into Simi Valley, and Smith
said she has been busy reaching out to
business and civic leaders and everyday residents at house parties in Simi
as well as closer to home. “It’s a very
busy prospect in a very condensed
time frame,” she said. “The people in
the Simi portion of the district have
been very welcoming to me.”
State office would be a step up for
Smith, whose political career has been
limited to her two terms (six years) on
the Newhall School District board. But
she also worked in the Department
of Education during the Bill Clinton
years and was involved in the School to
Work Initiative, which helped students
transition from school into the workplace; and the Family Involvement in
Children’s Education program, an effort to help parents better participate in
their children’s education.
With incumbent Scott Wilk vacating
the Assembly and running for State
Senate, Smith has a chance to become
the first Democrat to hold the seat
since before 1992. This is in spite of
registration numbers showing there
are more registered Republicans than
Democrats (38 percent to 33 percent),
although there also are 22 percent giving no party preference.
Christy Smith
“I’ve been a very transparent, accessible public servant,” she said. “I think
that speaks to what people want in a
public servant.”
In a 55-minute interview last week in
Valencia, Smith outlined her platform,
which presented here is much more detailed than what is on her website.
1. Expand middle-class economic opportunity: Smith said too many people
commute at least 30 miles outside
the district, so she wants more jobs
brought into the district, specifically
small-business, commercial and techrelated work. “I’d like to see us go after
tech-sector jobs. It makes sense (here),”
she said. “Those jobs are attracting the
best and the brightest.”
And those people need a safe place to
live, settle down and raise families.
“We aren’t Silicon Valley, but we are
a great place to live, and we can be a
Southern California hub for the tech
sector,” she said.
2. Get more funding for California
schools: Proposition 98 (1988) guarantees at least 39 percent of the state
budget to be spent on education. Because of this, Smith said, additional
moneys would have to come from either federal Title I and Title II funds
or by reducing money from other state
programs and shifting those to education. Smith says the solution is to
cut bureaucracy, which she says term
limits has increased. “It’s hard to hold
programs accountable for efficacy and
for their spending,” she said. “I’d like
to see these agencies go through an extensive audit in spending and efficiencies. There’s some money to be found
there.”
Another revenue source, she said, is
keeping businesses in the state. Smith
doesn’t like that many entertainment
industry jobs have gone to Georgia,
restaurant chains have moved to Texas,
and Elon Musk moved Tesla’s batterymanufacturing factory to Nevada. “A
growing economy can’t lose business
to Texas and Georgia,” she said. So,
she favors tax credits and incentives to
keep the movies and TV shows filming here, and she would like the permit
process streamlined.
Yet, she also acknowledges that the
state can’t overtax these businesses. “If
we tax too much on the high end, you
risk running people out of the state,”
she said.
3. Rebuild the state’s water and transportation infrastructure: Related to
point 1, bringing jobs to the state also
requires upgrades in roads, bridges and
water infrastructure. Smith would favor not only increasing jobs in the dis-
trict that would lessen commutes, she
would like to see public transportation
expanded: Build more tracks and increase the number of Metrolink trains
that run from the district to Downtown
L.A. or other points south, plus add a
lane to Interstate 5 and State Highway
14.
How to pay for it? Smith said she expects to see another water bond in
the next decade because so much infrastructure is needed, and the state’s
General Fund is too encumbered by all
of the various ballot propositions that
the people have passed over the decades. She also wants to ensure there is
enough money to build the necessary
water treatment facility the state has
mandated, but a recent court ruling
has put on hold. “It’s a state-imposed
level, therefore a state responsibility to
help with compliance,” she said.
4. Protect the environment: Smith favors more energy derived from solar
and wind. But since the state remains
in a drought, she also favors zerowater landscaping. Finally, she thinks
that Valencia got it right with paseos,
bicycle and foot trails that lead to a
smaller carbon footprint. Green companies that want to move into the district would get similar incentives and
tax credits Smith wants to give the entertainment industry.

Did Your Pension Plan Say Goodbye to You?
By Arif M. Halaby, CEP
Contributor
I
am hearing more and more
often about pension plans
that have liquidated or paid
out people who are still on the
company payroll. If you are
still working and have a pension plan, don’t be surprised
if you receive a letter in the
mail that states you have 30
days to decide what to do with
$300,000 or $400,000.
This can be as much of a surprise to you as winning the
lotto. But remember, you are
giving up something when
they send you the check. The
first thing lost is that monthly
pension paycheck. Since they
are “forcing” you to take money out of the pension fund, it
now cancels you from any future payment. If you are still
working, then your income is
coming from your job. If the
decision is made to just cash
the check and deposit it into
your savings account, you
may be in for a bigger surprise
… your tax bill! The IRS may
tax you the full amount, as if it
is income.
check with your tax advisor
for the best distribution option; rarely is it the full distribution.
However, if you choose to roll
this money into a traditional
Individual Retirement Account (IRA), then the taxes
can be deferred into the future.
That means you may delay
the withdrawing and spending
of the money until you are in
a lower tax bracket. Always
I have found that having this
account outside of your employer and your current 401(k)
can give you flexibility and options you may not currently
have available. Remember
to protect your money when
it goes from having a job of
just “growing” to payout and

SCRT’s ‘Wizard of Oz’
Comes to the Stage
I
t’s been almost 100 years since
the world got its first experience with “The Wizard of Oz”
on the big screen. While MGM’s
version was treasured as a masterpiece, audiences still seem to
flock to theatres to watch live
performances of the classic.
This summer, the Santa Clarita
Regional Theatre Company will
present “The Wizard of Oz.”
Actors in this production have
“day jobs” as teachers, stunt artists, voice-over actors, interior
decorators, sales people and students.
“We love it because we all carry a
little bit of each character inside
us,” said Steve Rizzo, who plays
the role of “The Scarecrow.”
Adrianna Eldridge, who plays
“Dorothy,” also shared her
thoughts about the show. She
said she feels it is “a story in each
of our hearts, one that creates a
place for a cast to come together
and bond tightly.”
Gin Treadwell Eng, who will
portray “The Wicked Witch of
the West,” said she likes the fact
that she is playing a villain that
is so iconic.
Though understudies serve as
backups for actors, in the Santa
Clarita Regional Theater, they
will each get to play the part in
one performance.
“The Wizard of Oz” performances will be held at the Santa
Clarita Performing Arts Center
on Saturdays at 8 p.m. on July
23, 30, August 6 and 13; and
Sundays at 2 p.m. on July 24,
31, August 7 and 14. The Performing Arts Center is located at
26455 Rockwell Canyon Road
in Valencia. Call the Canyon
Theatre Guild Box Office for reservations at 661-799-2702.

are some

just because the company pension no longer exists, it doesn’t
mean you still can’t make your
own “pension” and receive a

as you live.

Community Discussion about
FEMA Flood Maps
T
he City of Santa Clarita is inviting
residents, property owners and businesses to a community meeting to learn
about how they might be impacted by
proposed revisions to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
flood maps, also known as Flood Insurance Rate Maps, or FIRMs, for the Santa
Clarita area. The meeting will be held at 6
p.m. on Thursday, July 14, at the Centre
on Centre Pointe Parkway in Sycamore
Rooms A and B, located at 20880 Centre
Pointe Pkwy.
The City and FEMA representatives will
be giving a brief presentation about the
existing flood maps and will offer residents and property owners a chance to ask
questions and learn how their business or
property may be affected by changes to
the flood maps. The changes will bring
new areas into the flood zone, requiring
property owners to attain flood insurance;
while other properties will have their
flood insurance requirements eliminated.
This meeting is also an opportunity for
residents to provide their feedback and
learn how to address concerns during the
appeal and comment period, which closes
on Friday, August 26, 2016. After this period, proposed changes to the map will
move forward to be adopted by FEMA.
The flood maps under review are important tools in the effort to protect lives and
properties in Santa Clarita. FEMA’s last
update of the maps was in 2008. This
current effort is part of a multi-year project to re-study the city’s floodplains and
develop detailed digital Flood Insurance
Rate Maps (FIRMs) and is expected to be
completed by the end of 2017.

OPINION
Lean to the Left
In It for the Long Haul
Andrea Slominski
Contributor
W
e live in a culture of immediacy. Our technology has freed us and enslaved us. We might
as well have our cell phones embedded in our bodies. We can be reached, interrupted, found, outraged,
amused or distracted anytime of the day or night.
Yes, we can put our phones down or turn them off.
However, this tech dynamic reaches into our computers, tablets, e-readers (I still prefer to hold and feel a
book), and ultimately, our psyches.
Thanks to our terrific technology, we live in an instant gratification culture. I want to talk to you – now.
So, I text you or call you or face time you, or tweet
or … on and on it goes with the lists of apps. We
want it, we buy it now, order it online, and it’s on
our doorstep within 24-48 hours. In principle, there’s
nothing wrong with this. I order all my books for grad
school on Amazon.com. It’s great; I can get classics
for pennies, used! It would take me weeks of travel
and hours of searching the stacks in used bookstores
to find them all on foot. I’m grateful.
I am worried, though. Very worried about our ability
to stick with anything that cannot be solved in 140
characters. The problems that we are facing as a state,
a nation and a global community are biggies.
This is my hit list of important issues: global warming, rapid development of renewable energy, war,
nuclear proliferation, mass emigration, world hunger,
nationalism, immigration reform, jobs, the systemat-
ic elimination of the middle class, voting rights, campaign finance reform, gun control reform, single payer nationalized health care (including mental health
care), and the sorry state of education in our country.
These are not problems or issues that can be solved –
EVER – in 140 characters.
The enormous and complex issues that face humanity today are going to take intelligence, hard work and
compromise to address in any meaningful way, in order to move toward solutions. What has happened to
the art of real conversation, the art of compromise?
The art of saying, “We have a real problem that we
need to solve.” Let’s sit down, Left and Right, old and
young, rich and poor, discuss and fully understand all
of the dynamics at play in an issue, and come up with
real-time strategies and actual, actionable plans. They
will not be perfect, but we have to learn to work together and accomplish a lot, for the betterment of our
nation and the world.
Whether we like it or not, the world is getting smaller.
What happens in a recession in the U.S, “Brexit” in
Britain or war in Syria, affects the entire globe. We
are all affected by each other’s actions. We cannot
become paralyzed by the fear, hawked by political
pundits producing their own twisted form of entertainment, each talking louder than the next, pushing
their agendas and talking points in 15-second sound
bytes on mainstream news channels.
We actually have to get some very important work
done here. As a state, a nation and the “Leaders of
the Free World,” do we have the attention span, the
intelligence, the guts, determination, stick-to-itiveness, and the far-sightedness to put partisanship and
nationalism aside, sit down and say, “Let’s work on
this together, and not stop or leave the “room” until
we have a plan that we agree is a step in the right
direction?”
The Great Law of Peace, of the Iroquois Confederacy, was created in the 12th century and was influential in the formation of our Constitution. Among
many other principles, it says that no decision should
be taken without considering how it will affect their
people and their nation seven generations into the future. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like a
great policymaking foundation. For the sake of my
children, your children, the world’s children and all
their children, I’m in it for the long haul.

Trump Dating Site
“People know the ideals a trump supporter has are the same views they have.
That’s kind of the whole basis of the
website, to bring together people who
are like-minded. When you take politics
out of the equation, you’re more likely
to find a successful relationship.”
Similar to other dating sites, users can
search for matches using their age, location and interests. They can register for
free and gain limited use, or pay an introductory $5 monthly subscription rate
or $25 for six months. The price will go
up in a couple of weeks, Goss said.
Users can also buy credits. If you find
someone you would like to talk to who
is not a paid member, you can gift them
the credit to contact you.
“It’s so accessible to everybody, no matter what,” Goss said. “It’s a pretty good
system we’ve got.”
After he got the domain name, Goss
heard stories of friends, and friends of
friends, like the woman whose dinner
date – a Hillary Clinton supporter –
stood up and left her with the bill when
he heard she supported Donald Trump.
“Then I thought, ‘Maybe we do have
something here,’” said Goss, a lifelong
Wilk Holds Free Women’s
Self-Defense Workshop
Santa Clarita resident who works as an
associate producer in reality television.
There is some irony in the fact the immensely-successful website owner likes
the quiet separateness of life in the Santa Clarita Valley, sharing his memories
of the time local parcels were sinkholes
and onion fields.
While TrumpSingles.com has a few local members, users are from all over the
world, including Italy, Russia, the UK
and Africa. Goss even did a live interview on a morning TV show in Australia.
F
emales in the Santa Clarita community are invited to a free
workshop to learn safety and self-defense skills at a local gym.
On Tuesday, July 12 from 6-8 p.m., experts will offer strategies and
self-protection tactics to help women overcome fears and create a
mindset of empowering.
The two-hour class, held at UFC Gym at 18655 Soledad Canyon
Road in Canyon Country, is open to women and girls in the area.
Assemblyman Scott Wilk, R-Santa Clarita, scheduled the course in
an effort to train individuals how to protect themselves and to enhance the personal safety of females.
To attend, you need to RSVP to Wyatt Woodson or Kris Hough at
(661) 286-1565.
“We did not expect this to be what it
is now at all,” Goss said. “We thought
maybe we’d get a couple thousand users
over a couple of months.”
But the amazing accomplishment of
reaching the world is somehow eclipsed
by one other possibility (which everyone
is wondering): the prospect of reaching
The Donald himself.
“Not yet,” Goss said. “We’ve contacted
his campaign. We’d like even a handshake. It’s a service for trump supporters. We’re keeping the word out about
Trump support.”

A Smell is Emanating:
Something stinks in the wood pile and the smell is
literally making me want to throw up! What are we,
freaking Mexico, Russia, the Banana Republic or
some African country where corruption within the
government is considered normal? This thing with
Hillary smells so badly it actually makes for a very
sad week for our country – some of the country,
anyway. My friends on the left have been ecstatic all
week, celebrating that now their emotional, feel-good
addiction will have a clear fix from now until her first
scandal as president.
*I tell you what, though; it all makes perfect sense
now. Slick Willy visits Loretta Lynch for a half-hour
chit-chat and she claims all they talked about were
his grandkids. She then (way too calmly, in my book)
explains to us that she will abide by the FBI’s recommendation, no matter how bad the meeting looked.
(Well yeah, because she already knew the freaking
result of the investigation!)
Bill: Hi Loretta, I just stopped by to say hi and see how
you’re doing.
Lynch: Bill, I’m so glad you did, I’ve got great news for
you. I won’t be having your wife arrested.
Bill: That’s great news, Loretta. I knew, because I appointed you as a federal judge, you wouldn’t let me or Hillary
down.
Lynch: Don’t just thank me, thank the FBI director. Despite all the discovery of some bad stuff that went on, he
somehow is not recommending prosecution.
Bill: (with a chuckle) I know all about that, but the less
you know the better. Let’s just say all those $200,000 speeches Hillary and I gave allowed us to do some pretty darn good
convincing, if you know what I mean.
Obama: No, you don’t want to know, but now that this is
out of the way, let’s jump on my jet and do some righteous
campaigning. I really need you to help carry my legacy on,
because lord knows my track record ain’t going to cut it for
a great legacy.
Hillary: That’s fine, Barack, but before we take off I want
the world to know I’m in the clear.
Obama: Nooo problem, I’ll just have the director make an
announcement right before we leave.
Hillary: Are you sure he will want to do that, it’s going
to make him look really bad and I’m not so sure he’s ready
for that.
Obama: Don’t you worry about a thing, Hillary. Brother
Bill already greased those wheels, if you know what I mean,
and besides, I’m the dude’s boss. He’ll do it, believe me.
Hillary: Barack, I have to tell you I’m concerned how this
is going to make me look. I know all the fast ones I pulled
with those emails and I’m not sure how the American people are going to accept me getting out of hot water, especially
after they hear what the director is going to say. I could lose
a lot of votes because of this.
Obama: Ah, Hillary, this isn’t the first time you and brother Bill have bought your way out of a pile of dishonest crap
and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Besides, you’ll have all the
votes you need to get elected. All you have to do is keeping
saying you’re going to continue to give them everything for
free, just like I did and they’ll fall back in love with you
quicker than a bureaucrat accepting a pile of money to cover
up someone else’s poop tracks.
Hillary: By the way Barack, why wasn’t there an independent counsel appointed for this, and why not a grand jury
convened? That’s what I was really concerned about.

Then I looked over a few grills down, and lo and behold another candidate was doing the same thing.
He lasted an even shorter amount of time. Guess
what? Another and then another joined in for the allimportant action shot that could help propel them to
victory. There were two other candidates there that
didn’t participate in a cameo grilling appearance. I’m
not sure if they didn’t care about a photo op or they
didn’t want to get dirty.
The funny thing is none of them were around at
daybreak to help set up, and they were nowhere in
sight to help with the grueling clean-up process. Oh
well, such is life as a candidate these days. I guess we
should be grateful we were able to provide the props
necessary for these guys’ election efforts … just another way of helping others. (Ranter’s Note: These
are strictly my thoughts; no other Rotarians contributed to
this grousing)
Recent Headlines Catching My Attention: (with my 2
cents thrown in)

Quotes of the Week:
Bill: By the way, Loretta, how are you going to explain our
little meeting here?
Lynch: That’s easy, I’ll tell em the truth that even though
I met with you and it doesn’t look good on the outside and
clouds things up, I’m still going to abide by the FBI’s recommendation.
Bill: Oh, I get it, because you already know what his decision is. But nobody will know that when you have the press
conference regarding this meeting of ours.
*A few days later Obama announces he’s taking Hillary on Air Force One for some joint campaigning. A
few hours before they leave, the FBI director stages
his stunning news conference.
Obama: Hillary, I’m sure brother Bill told you the great
news about how you avoided being indicted by the skin of
your political life!
Hillary: Thank you so much Barack, I knew you and my
husband would keep me out of jail. I don’t want to know
how you did it, but I’m glad you did.
"Loving God...
Loving Others"
Hillary: And another thing, Barack, why did you wait
until just a few days ago to announce your endorsement of
me for president?
Obama: Hillary, you know I couldn’t endorse you until
I knew you were not going to be indicted. How would that
make me look if I did that and then you were indicted?
Hillary: Barack, How did you know before the director
made his announcement?
Obama: Gives Hillary a wink, nod and a smile and
says nothing.
*Seriously though, this injustice is further evidence
of our nation continuing its politically moral decline
into the sewer. Google a list of Hillary’s scandals,
Bill’s scandals and Obama’s scandals and then tell me
I’m a right wing, religious zealot. I challenge you to
read about theses numerous scandals and then tell me
how these wonderful people are a true representation
of what this country should be like!
Pancake Breakfast Scandal:
You think Hillary’s scandals are bad, how about what
happened at the Rotary Club’s annual pancake breakfast before the 4th of July parade in Newhall? I am
joking, but it was just a bit amusing, funny and irritating, at the same time.

“Under oath, Hillary told the Benghazi committee that she
turned over ‘all my work related emails, yes.’ Comey said,

did. He resigned.” (Larry Elder)
“This is a great nation at terrible risk in a dangerous world,
and she has fully exposed this nation and will continue to
do so because of her utter incompetence and her lack of care,
lack of attention, lack of concern.” (Rush Limbaugh)
“She’s got people gonna vote for her on the basis that she
can give the right wing fever attacks, on the basis that she
can make mincemeat and make fools out of the right wing
who think they’ve got her, and she slithers away yet again.
It makes her a hero. It makes her husband a hero. And I
don’t have an answer how you overcome that. ‘Cause that’s
pure hatred. That is just pure hatred.” (Rush Limbaugh)

As members of the club, we arrive close to break of
dawn to help set-up and prepare for the hundreds and
hundreds of breakfasts we serve to folks. As we struggled to keep up with the line around the block, we
were perspiring from the hot sun and the hot grills.
Those of us with glasses found them to be covered
with grease and we breathed in that grease.
As I was gladly performing my civic duty while enduring the hardships, a candidate for office stepped
in front of the grill next to mine and began to serve
by our side (this gentleman is not a member of our
Rotary Club). I assumed he was trying to be helpful
to our cause, but soon realized he was just filling in
for a photo op. Sure enough, he was out of there after
a short time.
Totally ridiculous. This guy is part of the reason why the

SANTA CLARITA GAZETTE & FREE CLASSIFIEDS
Sports Highlights
Three New Members Join
Zonta Club of Santa Clarita
The Professional Pursuit
Z
By Keir Chapman, Mr. Sports
Contributor
R
eaching the status of a professional athlete is a dream both
kids and adults share throughout the
world. While it is common knowledge that obtaining such a level of
skill requires years of practice along
with plenty of sacrifice, those who
aren’t on track to becoming a pro in
their sport likely don’t fully appreciate what one must do to take his or
her game to the highest level.
“I’ve given up a lot, like postponing
graduating from college,” said Brennan Louie, a member of the Philippines’s National Fencing Team. “I
think one of the biggest sacrifices I
made was losing time with my family.” Louie, who acknowledges he
practices up to 40 hours a week, can
attest to the major time commitment
mastering one’s craft can take.
Eli Schenkel, who trains with Louie
in Los Angeles and fences for Canada’s National Fencing Team, has
had to make similar sacrifices and,
because of that, knows how to put
the loss of free time into perspective.
“I›d practice three to four times a
week for several hours each day in
high school,” Schenkel said. “They
say it takes 10,000 hours to master
anything. If you don›t put in the
work, you won›t achieve greatness.”
While some may see all of the work
it takes to become a professional
athlete as a deterrent to following
their dreams, both Louie and Schenkel have found outward and inward
factors that allow them to keep their
love of the sport alive.
“My friends and community have
played an influential role,” Schenkel
said. “Most of my best friends have
been made through this sport.”
“Last year, I had
the opportunity
of representing the Philippines in the
28th South East Asia Games,” Louie
added, “With that, I have a responsibility to influence that niche group
of fencers in my country to really
pursue their dreams and to pursue
their passions as a career.”
Through all of the years of giving up
time with friends and family, along
with all of the other things in life
generally taken for granted, people
can find it is easy to burn out on
their respective sports and give up
on becoming professionals. Louie
and Schenkel have found themselves
faced with that dilemma — especially during the jump in commitment
in the later teen years that Schenkel
believes can break athletes’ spirits.
To those who are starting to doubt
whether or not a career in professional athletics is for them, Louie
and Schenkel have advice to help
keep the hope alive. “Everyone has a
chance at greatness,” Schenkel said,
“You just have to have the guts and
the passion to take it.”
“Never forget why you started playing your sport,” Louie agreed. “You
have to love the game and love the
grind.”
The lessons learned from others on
track to becoming professional athletes can be applied to becoming an
expert in any aspect of life. Following one’s passion takes hard work,
sacrifice, and the courage to unapologetically pursue that passion.
Chasing a dream is one that never
truly ends, and that is where the fun
of the pursuit, and of life itself, can
be found.
Mr. Sports Santa Clarita Shoutout
For Louie, his community is also a
driving force that keeps his professional pursuit alive and serves to
help him remember all of the positive opportunities the sport of fencing has provided him.
“Due to their lack of funding, some
of my teammates don›t have the
chance to experience international
competition,” Louie said. “I try to
take advantage of my blessings and
not let them down.”
Along with the social networks that
are formed among those trying to
achieve the status of a professional
athlete, the goals those athletes set
for themselves also play crucial roles
in driving them toward their dreams.
“I have always truly believed I›d
make the Olympics, and missing it
this year by just a technicality makes
me even more motivated for 2020,”
Schenkel said. “You just have to believe in yourself and go for it, regardless of the odds.”

The Santa Clarita Gazette would
like to congratulate Jeremiah Chow,
a senior pole-vaulter at Canyon
High School, for being named The
Signal’s 2016 Male Track and Field
Athlete of the Year. Chow tied the
record for the highest jump in Santa
Clarita history, clearing a bar set at
15 feet. He also earned the first CIF
State Track and Field Championship spot for a pole-vaulter in Santa
Clarita in 44 years.
The Santa Clarita Gazette would
also like to congratulate Azaria
Hill, a senior runner at Golden Valley High School, for being named
The Signal’s 2016 Female Track
and Field Athlete of the Year. Hill
helped the Grizzlies win their third
track and field league title in four
years by winning every 100-meter
and 200-meter dash at the five dual
meet races. Hill was also pivotal in
helping her relay teams win every
4X100 and 4X400 relays as well.
onta Club of SCV welcomed three new members at its June business
meeting: Aazam Irillian,
sponsored by past president
Adele Macpherson; Carolyn
Jacques, sponsored by president-elect Judy Penman; and
Fiona Chen, sponsored by
longtime member Ronnie Erickson. The club, one of the
fastest growing in the United
States, plans to welcome two
more new members at its
September meeting, after a
two-month summer hiatus,
according to Sue Hayward,
second vice president/membership.
Membership Chair Susan Hayward (left) completes induction
ceremonies for two new members and their sponsors: (L-R) Judy
Penman, Carolyn Jacques, Adele Macpherson and Aazam Irillian.
Aazam Irillian is a professional artist who has exhibited her paintings in
numerous galleries throughout Southern California and Oregon. Founder of
trademarked Heal the heART program,
she is also an educator and coach with
a master’s degree in art education. She
is also certified both as a practitioner in
Therapeutic Imagery and Social Emotional Arts (SEA) for healing.
Aazam has been sharing her passion for
the expressive arts with students of all
ages and diverse populations for almost
30 years. In her workshops and private
sessions, Aazam uses visualization, expressive arts and creative writing as tools
for personal healing.
Carolyn and her husband, Paul, moved
to Santa Clarita Valley from Glendale in
1990. They have a grown son and daughter, both graduates of Valencia High
School and college, now actively working in careers in their chosen fields. During her first 14 years in the SCV, she was
a stay-at-home mom, volunteering with
Girl Scouts of America and St. Kateri
Church.
She worked as a caregiver for Comfort
Keepers for 10 years, earning her real
estate license in 2006 and working at
transaction coordinating. Carolyn has
worked for several real estate professionals locally and currently is working with
her husband in their software and health
care sales and distribution business.
ter completing college, she found a highpaying job, but decided she was unable
to live with the “big brother” communist
government control. When her first son,
Lawrence, was born, she emigrated to
Canada and freedom.
In Vancouver, Fiona worked in an overseas Chinese television station as a reporter and producer. She focused on
exposing the evil of the Chinese Communist Party and the crimes it committed against the Chinese people and
the free world. Before the 2008 Beijing
Olympics, Fiona produced a four-episode documentary film based on the life
of former Chinese professional basketball player Kai Chen, who she married
in 2014.
She moved to the United States with her
husband and three children and now
lives in Canyon Country, where she has
her own home studio, Liberty Bell Production. Kai and Fiona are both on the
Communist Party black list, but she refuses to be intimidated. “I feel I have a
moral duty to continue my work,” she
exclaims.
The three new members bring the SCV
Zonta Club membership close to 70
members, making it one of the largest in
the western world. Although the club is
formally dark during July and August,
Hayward has planned a number of social
events to keep members connected and
help introduce the new and prospective
members to their new Zonta “sisters.”
The summer calendar includes the annual meeting of Zonta Club of SCV
Foundation, a dinner meeting
at the home of Foundation

By Martha Michael
Gazette Editor
All Pro Pest Control at 10 Years
L
ocal pest control expert Joseph Wilson is celebrating 10 years
at the helm of his business, All Pro Pest Control in Santa
Clarita. After working for many different companies, both large
and small, Wilson garnered support from family members and
bought his own pest control business in 2006.
Startup costs and overhead responsibilities were very real for Wilson. They included trucks, gas, salaries, pesticides, materials and
spray equipment, among other costs.
“I’ve been very fortunate to be able to continue to grow every
year,” Wilson said, “taking something from a small seed to a big
tree.”
Wilson’s forte is fighting bed bugs.
“Since the day I opened, there was a bed bug epidemic,” Wilson
said. “I was able to get in on the ground floor of bed bugs.”
One of his clients, a homeless shelter in the San Fernando Valley,
allows him to grow in his skills. Wilson is able to experiment with
a number of different sprays and traps on the market.
“It allowed me to cut my teeth, to find out what works,” he said.
Right now, what works is treatment using a heat system. Wilson
has an extra restricted materials permit and his company uses
materials approved by the EPA.
“We’re trained to apply things properly, the right amount in the
right area so it is people- and pet-friendly,” he said. “Everything I
use is targeted to pests. I’m treating and trying to control. We do
enough that manages the overall population so you can live comfortably in your home. … It’s the stuff that works versus the stuff
that smells good.”
The summer season is All Pro’s busiest. The calls the company
gets are mostly to rid homeowners of ants, but Wilson and his
staff members tackle spiders, gophers and other bothersome
creatures, except for termites. His easiest work involves ants, and
Wilson gets plenty of practice battling gophers due to his golf
course clientele.
A common problem, Wilson said, is that residents fail to confront
the issue of bed bugs.
“People go into denial about it,” he said. “They start getting bites
and think it’s from mosquitos. Then an easily treated small problem grows to become a big problem.”
His advice in the battle against bed bugs?
Wilson said: “Be aware of bed bugs – get to know them before
they get to know you.”
Tribute Bands Perform at Concerts in the Park
T
he City of Santa Clarita’s popular summer Concerts in the Park, presented
by Logix Federal Credit Union, is back for its 27th season with a varied lineup of acts to take the stage. The free, annual concert series kicks off at 7 p.m.
on Saturday, July 9 at Central Park, located at 27150 Bouquet Canyon Road.
Kicking off the summer will be Vaud and the Villains. The impressive 19-piece
1930s New Orleans orchestra and cabaret show will captivate the Santa Clarita
audience at the July 9 show.
The series continues on July 16 with the KHTS Country Showdown with Suzanne Harper, an award-winning country singer/songwriter who has been to
the finals of the Country Showdown twice. Her music blends the art of country
storytelling with an edgy, California sound.
On July 23, Boogie Knights will re-create the sights, sounds and concert experience of the disco era in Central Park with all the hits – complete with choreography, polyester, afros and bell bottoms!
Santa Clarita residents can enjoy the music of one of America’s musical icons,
Stevie Wonder, on July 30. Timeless Wonder is a remarkable tribute show that
aims to delight audiences of all ages and cultures.
Described as the world’s best David Bowie impersonator, David Brighton’s
Space Oddity will bring the music of David Bowie to Santa Clarita on August
6. The full scale stage production includes flamboyant costume changes, elaborate staging and intricate vocals.
Contemporary jazz will fill the air on August 13 with Tizer featuring Karen
Briggs. Driven by an explosive mix of jazz, rock and classical music, keyboardist/composer Lao Tizer and violinist Karen Briggs bring a high-powered collection of instrumental music.
The familiar sounds of Journey will delight audiences when DSB takes the
stage on August 20. The band of world-class musicians remains true to Journey’s musical legacy and delivers a nostalgic concert experience.
Finally, on August 27, the concert series culminates when Hollywood Blondie pays tribute to the iconic ‘80s band, Blondie. Hollywood Blondie is fun to
watch and will keep you singing and dancing all night long.
In anticipation of this year’s summer concerts, attendees are encouraged to

Anthony Ervin
W
illiam S. Hart High School graduate Anthony Ervin
has gone to make an even bigger splash in the world
of competitive swimming than he did in Santa Clarita. Last
week, he earned a spot on the Rio-bound Men’s Olympic
Swim Team. He finished fourth in the men’s 100-meter race
and also qualified in the 50 freestyle by coming in second behind Nathan Adrian at the U.S. Olympic trials.
This is the 35-year-old’s third trip to the Olympics. When he
was 19 years old he won the 50 freestyle race and got a silver medal with his relay teammates in the 4x100 at the 2000
Olympics in Sydney. His comeback was in 2012, when he finished fifth in the 50 freestyle in London.
L
ocal star swimmer
and Saugus High
School graduate Abbey Weitzeil won the
women’s 50-meter freestyle final in Omaha to
earn a spot on the Rio de
Janeiro-bound Women’s
Olympic Swim Team. As
a member of the Saugus
swim team, Abbey left
her mark on the school,
CIF and National record
books. She had a short,
but exceptional, swimming career as a teenager.
Her Saugus High School coach Vicky Donnelly said that Weitzel has impressive
personal skills, including a strong work ethic.
She said, “She always sets goals and
knows what it takes to get there and
works diligently to achieve them.”

arts exploration available to all children, regardless of financial status.
The Newhall facility brings after school and school break enrichment programs to children in Santa Clarita who are in financial need. Enrollment

set by the non-profit’s governing board of directors. The requirements for
enrollment include financial status, desire to participate, acceptance of
Spotlight’s code of conduct and parent or sponsor participation agreement.

including governing, management and administrative levels, work on a volunteer basis.
There are currently 120 children enrolled in the program at Spotlight Arts
Center. Many of them were referred by Single Mothers Outreach, the Domestic Violence Center of SCV and the Child & Family Center. Spotlight
also partners with local arts businesses and organizations such as Color me
Mine, Pinot’s Palette, Vibe Performing Arts Studio and Dee Studio Productions, The Repertory East Playhouse, RockNacappella, and Showdown
Theater Camps. Local partners donate class materials, sponsor fundraising
events, provide workshop instruction, performance space and classes that
complement the program.
An active part of the Santa Clarita Valley community, Spotlight Arts Center was recognized by the Santa Clarita Gazette as one of the annual “22

Canyon Country Teen Band at
Relay For Life San Fernando
K
iKstart, an all-girl band started in 2013
by sisters Kalia and Keeli Javan, have
summer performances lined up. They will
appear at the Relay For Life in San Fernando on Saturday, July 9 at 1 p.m. and
The Mint LA on Aug. 6 at 12:30 p.m.
After performing in talent shows since
kindergarten, the teenaged Javan sisters
formed a band and performed for numerous charities in the Southland. They have
pledged to always be involved in charity
work, using their concerts as a means of
raising funds to help people and organizations in need.
Their first public performance was at the
opening ceremonies of the 2013 Relay For
Life in their hometown of Santa Clarita.
They have performed in other Relay For
Life events, including Covina, Reseda and
San Fernando. Funds from their concerts
have benefitted the SCV Food Pantry, their
high school, Albert Einstein Academy, the
seminarians from their parish church, St.
Clare of Assisi, and the victims of Typhoon
Haiyan, through the Philippine Red Cross.
The 2013 Typhoon Haiyan, or Yolanda, as
it’s known in the Philippines, was one of
the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded in history and claimed the lives of more
than 6,000 people.
In 2014, they released their first
song, “Heart Might Break Again,” and
sold copies on CDBaby.com, iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, Xbox Live and other
sites. In Australia, they were voted by the
listeners of “Stars of Tomorrow,” an FM
Radio Program in Sydney, Australia, one
of the Top 5 Artists of 2014.
The sisters are starting to write their own
songs. They currently attend music, songwriting, voice, and performance classes at
Paramount Academy of Music in Los Angeles under the tutelage of Marisa Gariano, Carl Restivo, Michael Eisenstein, Tim
Pedersen, and Michele Gruska. Their
performance at The Mint LA is an all-ages
show featuring a other bands as well. Tickets are $5 for those 21 years old and over,
and $10 for individuals under 21.

Dogs Trained to Avoid Rattlesnakes
A
Simi Valley dog training service is offering classes in numerous communities with a mission to spare dogs and owners “the pain and distress” caused
when the animal is bitten by a rattlesnake. The rattlesnake avoidance course will
be offered in Newhall on Saturday, July 16, 2016.
The instructors are Ma & Paw Kennel Canine Training Services owner Gina Gables, who has 25 years of professional dog training experience, and Steve Gardner, who has more than 30 years of experience studying the behavior and ecology
of rattlesnakes and other reptiles. They will use live rattlesnakes that have been
disabled from biting to train the canines in the class. Individual training sessions
will be given to each dog.
“Our first priority is the comfort and safety of all involved,” said Gables.
This includes your dogs, the humans and the snakes as well.”
The training will take place in a controlled environment, using a remote training
collar system adjusted to each dog’s individual temperament, personality and
physical response characteristics. The devices deliver an uncomfortable stimulus
to the dog when the dog has alerted to the presence of the snake, through either
smell, sound or sight.
“We do this so the dog will be able to avoid an encounter with a rattlesnake if any
of these clues are present,” Gables said. “For instance, your dog may be downwind of the rattlesnake and can smell it, but is not able to see it. And the snake
– not being aware of the dog’s presence – may not be giving a warning rattle. The
dog, by avoiding just the smell, would avoid the rattlesnake. If the owner is observant of the dog’s behavior, he or she can possibly prevent themselves or others
from being bitten as well.”
Cost for the course is $90 for first time students and $80 for a refresher course.
Gables specializes in obedience training and problem-behavior modification with
dogs. She has a gentle training process to teach every dog to recognize and avoid
the scent, sound and sight of rattlesnakes.
“Uniquely, we have three options of devices available allowing us to humanely
and effectively train dogs with temperaments ranging from the most tenacious to
the highly sensitive, as well as puppies of any age,” Gables said.
Gables and Gardner take their training on the road, offering it in communities as
far away as Fresno and San Luis Obispo. The exact address is given upon registration. For more information or to register online, visit

How Does a Judge Raise or
Lower Someone’s Bail?
I
n past articles, we’ve discussed how after an arrest, the Los Angeles Felony
County Bail Schedule is referenced when bail is set. For example, California
Penal Code 470 PC, or forgery, has a bail amount attached to it of $20,000. Thus,
to bail someone out of jail on a forgery charge, it will typically cost either $20,000
(or $2,000 if you work with a bail bondsman at 10 percent).
In certain cases, it’s possible that a judge can set bail higher or lower than that
which is indicated in the Los Angeles County Bail Schedule, but there’s a process
that must take place first.
Under California Penal Code 1270.1(a), in cases of “serious or violent felonies,”
a hearing must be held before any change in an individual’s bail amount can occur. The number of crimes considered “serious or violent felonies” is too long
to list here, but to give you an idea, it includes things like assault, murder, rape,
arson, robbery and kidnapping.
California Penal Code 1270.1(b) states that, at the hearing, the judge will have to
consider the following factors when deciding to raise or lower bail:
•
•
•
17
The defendant’s record of appearances – Was the defendant ever late for
court before? Did they ever miss a court date/skip bail?
The potential length of the sentence – The harsher the punishment, the likelier someone is to attempt to avoid it. That being the case, crimes with the potential to land someone in prison for an extended period of time are less likely
to result in lower bail amounts and more likely to end up with higher ones.
The defendant’s criminal history – Is the defendant a first-time offender, or
has he been arrested and/or incarcerated before? If so, how many times?
•
Past history of violence – Pretty self-explanatory. Judges
are loathe to allow those with a propensity for violence to
remain on the streets.
• Public safety concerns – This is, by far, the most important factor in determining someone’s bail amount. No matter the other factors involved in the
defendant’s history, if they are deemed to pose any threat whatsoever to the
community, it’s very likely that bail will be raised significantly, if not altogether denied.
• Any threats that have been made – If it comes to light that the defendant has
made any threats against someone else, whether they’re a witness in the case
or not, it can have an effect on their bail amount.
• Ties to the community – Does the individual have a job? Family/community
responsibilities or obligations?
• Ability to post bail – If an individual is going to have a significantly difficult
time posting bail as set by the county bail schedule, there’s no sense raising
the bail further (unless the person is deemed to be a danger to the community). Additionally, bail can actually be lowered to make being bailed out more
affordable to those in financial hardship.
While the factors listed above must be taken into consideration by a judge, he or
she is by no means obligated to raise or lower someone’s bail based on anything
other than the potential threat to the community the defendant poses. Legal representation on both sides will make their cases, and if one of them is successful,
bail can be altered accordingly.

LARC ‘Island Paradise’
Fundraiser to Honor Antonovich
T
he “LARC Island Paradise Luau”
on Sept. 18 will feature music, food,
games and a special salute to outgoing L.A.
County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich, a longtime supporter of the residential
facility serving developmentally disabled
adults.
“We wanted to take this opportunity to
thank Supervisor Antonovich for his support of LARC for so many years,” said
LARC Ranch Executive Director Kathy
Sturkey. “Whenever LARC has needed
help or support from L.A. County, Supervisor Antonovich and his staff have always
been willing to lend a helping hand, whatever the issue was, whether it was navigating government program requirements or
assisting in our efforts to resolve the water
crisis in Bouquet Canyon.”
Sturkey added: “So, as we planned our
fundraiser, we thought it would also be an
appropriate opportunity to say ‘aloha and
mahalo’ to Supervisor Antonovich.”
The Supervisor is leaving the Board due
to term limits, after representing the 5th
District, which includes the Santa Clarita
Valley, since 1980. He is running in the
November election for a state Senate seat
representing foothill communities from
Sunland-Tujunga to Upland.
He will be the guest of honor at the fundraiser benefitting the non-profit organization’s residential and day programs and
services. LARC Ranch, located in Bouquet
Canyon, provides a safe home environment
for more than 100 developmentally disabled adults.
The luau is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. at
LARC Ranch, 29890 Bouquet Canyon
Road in Saugus. Adult tickets cost $125
each, and children’s tickets cost $50. A family package of $325 includes tickets for two
adults and two children.
The “Island Paradise Luau” is designed as
a family-friendly event that will include a
variety of food vendor options, carnivalstyle games, music and dancing under a
big top-style tent. DJ Bino Bates keeps the
crowd moving, and the numerous food and
dessert offerings include a range of options,
from a full indoor buffet to a hot dog cart,
an In-N-Out Burger truck and more.
“We like to make our fundraiser a fun event
for the whole family, and we view it as a
chance to thank everyone who supports
LARC,” Sturkey said. “It’s also a terrific
opportunity for the community to get to
know LARC and its residents, so we hope
to see a wide cross-section of the community come out and help us thank Supervisor
Antonovich and enjoy an afternoon of the
aloha spirit.”

loyal. Because of his shy tendencies a loud

LEGAL NOTICES PUBLISH
DATE, JULY 8, 2016
Seeing the USA as a
Small Business Owner
Public Notices
By Connie Ragen Green
Contributor
E
arlier this summer, I took a road trip across the country.
Over the course of 21 days I covered 6,300 miles and
traveled through 17 different states. What began as a convenient way to meet with clients located far and wide became
a case study in how small businesses operate in different regions of our great country. I highly recommend that you do
something similar, even if only on a small scale, to get the
benefit of interacting with business owners and customers in
a variety of situations.
My first stop was at a Cracker Barrel restaurant located in
Flagstaff, Arizona. It had been years since I had patronized
this chain and I longed to see if it was as I remembered it
from more than 20 years ago. When you first enter the building you find yourself in their country store, filled with items
from the past. As you work your way towards the restaurant,
it’s apparent that everything has been strategically placed to
make you feel right at home.
From the employees dressed in clothing from a hundred
years ago to food that is both delicious and reasonably priced,
Cracker Barrel bends over backwards to make customers feel
like family. It made me question my own methods of doing
business online and in person. Do my own clients feel like
family, or more like paying customers?
My next stop was at a Motel 6 in Winslow, Arizona. I had
not called ahead to make a reservation, nor had I gone online on my smart phone to see if they had a room available
for that evening. I was met at the front counter by a woman
who greeted me with a smile. She not only made me feel at
home, but asked if I’d like an accessible room or one closer
to the office.
Also, she offered to let me look at the room first before committing to it. This motel was located right next to the railroad tracks, as many Motel 6’s are, and she assured me there
would be no noise once I had closed the door to the room.
She was correct. Considering my total bill was less than $60
for that night’s stay, I was quite satisfied.
These experiences continued as I crossed the country over
the next three weeks, and I came to expect the very best in
customer service and amenities. I was disappointed at a Super 8 motel in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, outside of Tulsa and left
a one-star review on their website within the following 24
hours to share the details. In this day and age of social media
Jul 8 - Jul 14, 2016
and review sites, businesses simply cannot afford to offer less
than acceptable goods or services.
The Kroger grocery store, where I shopped in Knoxville,
Tennessee, also went out of its way to provide me with a superior experience. And when I was in need of a prescription
in Memphis, it was the kind and helpful people at the Walgreens pharmacy who made my day one to remember. And
the gas station in Charlottesville, Virginia had employees
who washed my windshield and offered help with directions
to my next destination. This was yet another reminder that
we do business with people, not with companies or corporations, and that these people can make or break the reputation
of a business – one transaction at a time.
This was such a valuable learning experience for me that I
plan to take another road trip next summer. There is nothing
like putting yourself out there to see exactly what it’s like to
do business in unfamiliar locations and surroundings. When
I came home I had a small notebook filled with ideas as to
how I can improve my own business practices.
By now you can see that seeing the USA, (whether in a
Chevrolet or another make of vehicle), can be an excellent
way to get an up close and personal view of how business
really works. Make a plan to take to the open roads and observe your own experiences so that your own business will
benefit when you return.
Are you a small business owner or entrepreneur who wants
to see things from a new perspective? Please let me know if
you have further questions about anything I have discussed
here.

Can the defense cash three Diamonds? Probably not, Declarer is favorite to hold
the ♦K and, anyway, there’s no rush, those Diamonds aren’t going anywhere. It
looks like there is a Spade to cash (based on the play of the ♠Q at Trick 1), but that
also can wait. So you exit safely with a Heart and await developments. Declarer
wins that in Dummy and leads a Diamond to his King and your Ace. Now what?
At this point it might seem obvious for West to cash the ♠T and the ♦Q for down one.
But by now you should be getting suspicious. Why hasn’t Declarer led a Spade
to the board, setting up Dummy’s Nine for a Diamond pitch? The reason is that
Declarer doesn’t have a second Spade! That squandering of the Queen at Trick 1
was a clever ruse, designed to fool you. The only way to beat the contract now is
to lead a casual low
play is foiled by sound logic.

Acrylic Art Demo by
Christina Ramos
International Students
Seek Local Host Families
hristina Ramos will demonstrate
The Golden A to Z of Acrylics
at the August 15 meeting of the Santa
Clarita Artists Association (SCAA).
The event is free, open to the public and
meets at 6:30 p.m. at Barnes & Noble,
23630 Valencia Blvd.

Her lecture will include information
about acrylics, taking guests through
the basics, while also opening up new
possibilities. The audience will gain information about mineral and modern
pigments, and how it relates to clean
color mixing, glazing and the creation
of new colors. The lecture includes a review of grounds that create contemporary surfaces for painting, drawing, pastel, digital printing and mixed media.
Sekian is 17, hails from Hong Kong,
and enjoys aerobics, baseball, movies,
music and singing. Manieng, also a
17-year-old boy from Hong Kong,
enjoys aerobics, cooking, drama/
theater, music, singing and volleyball.
Ramos is a nationally-recognized artist, specializing in figurative realism.
Featured as an “Artist to Watch” in
the January 2015 issue of Southwest
Art Magazine, her work has been published in the “Best of Acrylic” painting
books “Acrylic Works Volume 2 and
Volume 3” published by North Light
Books. Shown throughout the United
States, Ramos won awards from Max
Ginsburg, Dean Mitchell, Tony Pro
and Kristin Hoerth (editor in chief of
Southwest Art Magazine).
Raised in a family of artists, craftsmen
and musicians, Ramos’ talent was recognized at an early age. Although she
studied architecture and interior design
during college, it was not until she was
home raising her four children that she
began focusing on painting. She refined
her skills in figurative painting at the
Los Angeles Academy of Figurative
Art. Her innovative use of acrylic has
made her a much sought after demonstrator and is an acrylic painting instructor at The Los Angeles Academy
of Figurative Art. She is currently representing Golden Artist Colors, Williamsburg Handmade Oils, and QoR
Watercolor Companies.
ore than 140 foreign teenagers
will arrive in Santa Clarita next
week and host families are still being
sought. The Education First exchange
program is approximately two weeks
long and individuals who host one or
more of the students are responsible
for some transportation and meals.
Muhammad, an 18-year-old boy from
Indonesia, enjoys baseball, guitar,
movies, singing and television. He also
loves ice cream.
“The Blacksmith” by Christina Ramos
Ramos’ work has been shown at the
Museum of Latin American Art, San
Diego Museum of the Living Artist,
the Santa Paula Museum of Art, the International Museum of Contemporary
Masters of Fine Art, the Pacific Asian
Museum, the Santa Barbara Natural
History Museum, the Pasadena Museum of History, and many galleries
throughout the United States.
Ramos is an active member of the Portrait Society of America, National Oil
and Acrylic Painters Society, International Society of Acrylic Painters and
the California Art Club. Her work is
held in many private collections in the
United States and Europe. You can
view her work at http://www.christinaramosart.com/index.php#.VxkeBeuzMss.
Arrive early for the meeting, as it may
become a standing room only event by
6:30. See www.SantaClaritaArtists.org.

5. Improve health care access: While
Smith admits that this is more of a
federal rather than a state issue, she
quoted a 2012 American Medical Association study that concluded the
state might face a shortage of physicians in 2015, and she believes that
came to pass. She said more nurses,
nurse practitioners and physician assistants are needed, and the way to get
them is through expanding these programs at state universities and community colleges.
“Within the state university system,
we need to look at those programs
where there’s lower enrollment and
consolidate there,” she said. “Do you
need more underwater basket weaving
classes or do you need more nurses?
Health care can be a leading growth
sector for this state economy. We need
to make sure those jobs are available.”
6. Prepare now for the impending
teaching shortages: Smith says the
Baby Boomer-aged teachers are retiring and not being replaced fast
enough. The other problem is that
too many new teachers leave the field
within the first three to five years. One
reason: Teaching has changed since
Smith attended Hart High. Teachers now need to know how to reach
a wide range of students with various
needs and abilities.
“It’s about shifting the paradigm and
making teaching and education a career people want to choose,” she said.
“It’s been under attack from so many
different sources that it just doesn’t
seem like an enticing or intriguing
career for people, and we have to reframe that.”
Smith wants teachers to be paid more,
and she wants more support built in so
the teachers can reach those students.
But she also wants better administrators. “When you have skilled administrators managing school systems,
you don’t have issues where ineffective teachers are kept on. You either
have teachers who have been given the
support and training they need, or you
have teachers who have been counseled out of the profession.”

From Paris, there is 16-year-old Paul,
who enjoys cooking, drama/theater,
drawing and painting, movies, music,
reading, soccer, swimming, tennis,
television and writing. Nicolas and
Hugo are also 16-year-old boys
from France. They share a love of
aerobics, biking, movies, music, tennis
and television. Nicolas also is into
computers, and Hugo enjoys martial
arts, swimming and volleyball.
Yuanhao, from Hong Kong, is 15
years old and enjoys baseball, movies,
reading, swimming and television.
What these seven boys have in common
is that they are coming to the Santa
Clarita Valley July 14 to study English
and experience American culture.
They are in need of host families, with
or without children their own ages.
They are part of a group of more than
140 teenagers from Finland, Austria,
France, Hong Kong, Indonesia and
China who will join local families for a
few weeks as part of the English First
language travel program.
The program holds classes each
morning at La Mesa Junior High
School in Canyon Country and takes
students and their adult leaders on
trips to such southern California
tourist spots as Santa Monica and
Venice Beach, a Los Angeles city tour,
shopping trips, and optional outings
to Disneyland, Universal Studios,
Magic Mountain and San Francisco.
A surfing class at Zuma Beach and
an afternoon Dodgers game are also
included in their package tour.
Families are expected to provide
transportation on weekdays either
to the course center at La Mesa JHS
or to conveniently located bus stops
throughout the SCV, offer a sack lunch,
and provide dinner on evenings when
there are no special events planned.
Most weekends are free for students to
spend with their host families.
The Indonesian students will leave
July 25 and the others will leave Aug.
2.
There are also two female adult
leaders who are still seeking homes.
Vida is 37, lives in Austria, and speaks
six languages. Her interests include
movies, reading, swimming, dancing,
volleyball, television and writing.
Tsz, from Hong Kong, is 27 years old,
and is a professional social worker
working with children. She enjoys
movies, music, reading and swimming.
Families interested in hosting a student
or leader can contact Site Director
Nikki Beck at rogerandnikki@
sbcglobal.net, or by telephone at (661)
755-6152.
SCV Education Foundation to
Expand ‘Bag of Books’
T
he SCV Education Foundation is
planning to add at least two more
schools, two to four more students
and over 100 students to its already
successful Bag of Books program in
Santa Clarita elementary schools.
All four of the valley’s elementary
school districts (Castaic, Newhall,
Saugus and Sulphur Springs) are involved in the program, which last
year placed 30 bags of books into 25
different kindergarten classrooms,
impacting over 600 students. Each
bag of books consists of four books
the students check out on Monday,
take home to read, and return on Friday. The following Monday, they get
a new bag with four new books. By
the end of the school year the students
have had the opportunity to read 140
books.
For the 2016-17 school year, the SCV
Education Foundation would like
to add Canyon Springs Community
and Cedarcreek Elementary School
to the program. If you would like to
be a sponsor of the program, a donation for a single Bag of Books is $25.
For $1,000 you can sponsor an entire
classroom for the year and be there
when the books are handed out at the
beginning of the year. As a thank you,
your name or company will be dis-
played on the SCV Education Foundation website donor page and on the
bag that contains the Bag of Books.
To donate, a check can be written to the SCV Education Foundation and mailed to P.O. Box 221296,
Newhall, CA 91322 or online
at https://scveducationfoundation.

Originally created in 1984 as the Education Committee of the SCV Chamber of Commerce, the SCV Education
Foundation formed as a non-profit in
1995 to benefit Santa Clarita’s public
K-12 schools. Activities of the Foundation include “Bag of Books,” a literacy program for young readers, and
“Read With Me!” which gives much
needed one-on-one reading assistance
from community volunteers.
The SCV Education Foundation has
contributed over $150,000 in scholarships to high school students since
1988. In addition, the Foundation
has awarded over $550,000 in grants
— called Teacher Innovation Grants –
for a variety of school projects, such
as computer software, science equipment and the arts. Teacher Tribute,
an annual program for more than 30
years, honors one outstanding teacher
from each school.

MESSAGE FROM THE
CITY MANAGER
KEN STRIPLIN
July 2016
L
ast year, the City of Santa Clarita embarked upon an
ambitious five-year strategic plan, Santa Clarita 2020.
The plan includes tens of millions of dollars in public
projects, including: a new Sheriff ’s station in the center of the Santa Clarita Valley;
a new community center in Canyon Country; a library/recreation center in Saugus; an arts
master plan, bringing a Laemmle Theatre, a commercial project with housing and a parking
structure to Old Town Newhall; expanding transit services, attracting more filming, jobs and
large scale events; and much more.
Now in our second year of the five-year plan, we are hitting some tremendous
milestones that I’m excited to share with you. In May, the City Council and the
L.A. County Board of Supervisors signed off on a funding plan for our new Sheriff ’s
Station. The new and larger, state-of-the-art facility will be built on 12 acres of land
owned by the city on Golden Valley Road. The $51 million plan includes a $15
million contribution from L.A. County.
This year, the City Council will be making a decision on the location of the new
Saugus Library Center. The new library and recreation center will provide a muchneeded amenity to the Saugus community. Also this year, the design of the new
library will commence.
In Canyon Country, the city will be building a new Canyon Country Community
Center between Soledad Canyon Road and Sierra Highway. The 6.5-acre site will
include a variety of amenities, including a gymnasium, fitness room, kitchen,
multi-purpose outdoor fields, a tot lot, a half-court basketball court, a community
garden, classrooms and much more. This year, in concert with the community,
we will be completing the site Master Plan and begin the design process for the new
community center.
If you would like information and a progress report of all 62 work projects on the
Santa Clarita 2020 plan, I encourage you to visit our regularly updated website at:

WHY IS IT
Antiques
A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
brushes his teeth with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work in an ADVERTISED car and then...
refuses to ADVERTISE believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor, he ADVERTISES it for sale.
WHY IS IT?
