Santa Clarita Residents Mourn
the Passing of Lloyd Sreden
Eric Tovar-Plummer greets you
at his restaurant, Cathy’s Delicatessen in Newhall, with a hearty
handshake and a big smile.
Immediately, the colorful tattoos
that completely cover his arms
become impossible to miss.
By Martha Michael
Gazette Editor
On Monday, June 27, 2016, surrounded
by his family, Lloyd Sreden lost his fight
with pancreatic cancer. He was 55 years
old.
“It’s my whole life on my body,”
he explains, and then describes
all of them. On his left arm: a
combination Irish Cross and
Mexican flag for his parents, the
“Star Trek” logo and “The
Beatles” as it appeared on
Ringo’s drum kit, a Buddha of compassion; and on his ring finger, the words
“That’ll do, pig,” from “Babe” (his wife calls him Babe).
Lloyd was born to Barry and Maxine
Sreden in February 1961 and grew up in
Granada Hills, Calif.
A resident of Santa Clarita, Lloyd was
known for his generous service to several
local non-profit organizations, but
perhaps more, for his reputation as a
practical joker.
Philanthropy
Lloyd got involved early as a coach and
volunteer with the William S. Hart Baseball and Softball organization. He generously shared his expertise in finance and
served as a long-term board member.

On his right arm: his wedding date (Oct. 13, 2012) and a groom that resembles
a skull from the Mexican Day of the Dead celebration (he said his wife has the
bridal equivalent), the words “The God in me welcomes the God in you,” a
lotus to symbolize rebirth, some skulls to honor people who have died, the eye
of the Egyptian god Ra; and two females standing back-to-back, one engulfed
in flames and wearing horns to symbolize hell and the other in clouds wearing
a halo to symbolize heaven.

The Gazette
Lloyd Sreden
continued from front page
Lloyd also served on the board of the Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce for more than 20
years, often as the board treasurer. And in 2010,
Lloyd joined the College of the Canyons Foundation
Board of Directors.
“He was serious and very good at what he did, and he
had a sense of humor, which made things bearable,
especially during tax season,” said Ron Morgan, another partner at the CPA firm. “He knew practically
everybody in Santa Clarita.”
water,” said Corn. “I think he lived to prey on people
with his shocking pen.”
An active member of Rotary Club of the Santa Clarita Valley, Lloyd freely donated his financial talents
to the group.
Berger’s eulogy underscored how Lloyd’s clients
trusted his work.
“Lloyd was blessed with charisma,” Berger said.
“You can see this by how many different friends he
had. Everyone wanted to spend time with him.”
“Not only did he serve on the governing board for 15
years straight, he was the treasurer of the Foundation
board,” said Michael Berger in his eulogy at Lloyd’s
funeral, held Thursday, June 30 at 10 a.m. at Mount
Sinai Memorial Park in Simi Valley, Calif. “Being a
501C3, it was a lot of work, including all the accounting, annual reports and tax returns. In those 15 years,
he never charged the club a penny. The money he
saved the club went to support a local charity in our
community every year.”
The service organization devoted part of its meeting
Wednesday to remembering his legacy.
“Lloyd has been a great Rotarian, always helpful
with SCV Rotary books and foundation billing and
audits,” Jim Lentini said. “He always supported our
functions, offering his home, and his family was always involved and supportive. Lloyd was a wonderful
family man, always having his family first and being
involved in our Rotary programs and what’s important in support of our community. Because of his
support and giving demeanor, many of our Rotarians
were clients of his firm.”
Professional
Lloyd was a senior partner at Stern, Kory, Sreden &
Morgan in Stevenson Ranch, Calif.
“Lloyd had a stellar reputation,” Berger said. “The
ultimate professional. Over the past few days I have
heard so many people telling me how much they
trusted him and how he has made such a positive difference in their business.”
Personal
“His favorite things that I know of were his family …
golf, and he loved the Dodgers, even when they let
him down,” Morgan said. “He also loved his dogs.”
Called “the ultimate prankster,” one of Lloyd’s tricks
involved swapping his yellow Labrador with the
neighbor’s, seeing how long it took the dog-sitter to
catch on.
“He loved to laugh and he loved to play practical
jokes on people,” Morgan said. “It made his day
when he could successfully do something like that,
and he loved retelling the stories.”
Steve Corn, Lloyd’s friend of many years, listed some
of his favorite pranks.
“He’d un-strap your golf bag, and when you drove
off in the golf cart it would fall off the back. He’d use
exploding golf balls on unsuspecting golfers. He put
itching powder on one guy’s neck at a Dodger game.
… At Rotary, if you got up he’d put salt in your ice
Lloyd’s sense of humor was a natural part of his personality, according to friends and colleagues.
Many of Lloyd’s friends voiced their sadness at his
passing.
“I knew Lloyd to be a loving family man and upstanding community and business leader,” Tom
Christensen said. “He was generous with his time, his
talents, and financially. I was lucky enough to have
called him a friend. He will be missed.”
Lloyd is survived by his parents, Barry and Maxine;
his wife, Vicky; and his children, Matt (Jessica), Mandy and Travis.
“Looking at him as a man and as a friend, husband,
dad, brother and son, it’s hard to find anybody more
dedicated to those around him, so concerned about
others,” Corn said. “He’s taught us all to relish every
minute, to be grateful.”
Rotary President Louis Esbin sent a letter to members
with a take-away that would honor Lloyd Sreden.
It said, “May his smile, wit, humor, good nature, and
legacy of service above self guide each of us in our
own lives.”

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

ext month is the beginning of 18
LA SummerFEST entertainment
events in Santa Clarita. Presented by
the Santa Clarita Shakespeare Festival
summer cultural series, the season
will include music festivals, concerts,
theatre performances, and special
events.
This year’s venue has changed. Located
on the Rivendale property in Towsley

removed the old staples and red-tagged
buildings that were on the site, leaving
it a large open space. The festival will
be utilizing the new area for artists
and VIP parking. Audience members
who don’t want to bring their own
chairs will be able to reserve tables
and chairs at selected events. Also new
this summer: MOVIES in the Canyon,
which are fun family movies under the
stars for three consecutive Wednesday
evenings. And this year audiences
can print out a schedule of the entire
season. Just visit the website and click
on the “Schedule” tab.
Because of the growth of the festival,
the organizers are required to take
on the responsibility of the patrons
drinking in the park. Audiences
bringing their own alcoholic beverages
will need to receive a wristband and
pay a small corking fee.
Special events this summer also include
the Induction to the Court of the Lord
Chamberlain, a fundraising gala in
support of the free events. This year
the festival is recognizing Dr. Dianne
G Van Hook, chancellor at College
of the Canyons. The evening includes
dinner, wine, dessert and a special
preview of the summer festival. The
other special event this season is OUT

OPINION
Brexit, Coastal Thinking Insanity: Repeating the Same
Behavior and Expecting a Different Result
and Immigration
By Robert Patrick Lewis
Contributor
I
f you’ve been anywhere but under a
rock or hiding in cave this week, you
must have heard about the UK’s vote
to leave the European Union, cleverly
tagged as “Brexit.” Aside from pundits and talking heads making wild assumption after wild assumption about
an issue with so many variables and
unknowns that nobody can make an
honest, informed prediction at this
point, what scares me the most is the
misinformation, misdirection and positioning already taking place. But it’s
quite easy to see why it’s happening.
I attribute this to what I’ve heard as
“coastal thinking,” which I’m sure in
the UK should be called “Londoner
thinking.” If you have a look at the
voting demographic maps (which
is, interestingly enough, color-coded
blue vs. red) you’ll see what I’m talking about immediately, as is evident in
any political election here in the U.S.
The Donald Trump
protesters are only
fueling the fire of that
sentiment by waving
Mexican flags at
protests on U.S. soil
and burning American
flags outside of his
rallies.
When asked his opinion of the financial fallout from this vote, Danilo Onorino, portfolio manager at Dogma
Capital SA in Switzerland, said, “Polls
ahead of the referendum misled investors, because they were analyzing the
wrong sample of population. … The
polls were made mainly in London,
Manchester and the big cities. The
polls were ignoring the peripheries.”
And that’s precisely what “coastal
thinking” is. Here in the U.S., much
like London for the UK, the vast majority of our news, entertainment, advertising, finance, politics and celebrity gossip emanate from either New
York City or Los Angeles (the east
and west coasts).
Many involved in these industries
have a tendency to “breathe their own
air,” or spend all of their time only in
circles with other “coastal thinkers”
in their own little bubble of existence.
Because all of their time is spent in
this bubble of thinking, breathing the
recycled air of liberal ideas and leftists
policies, they quickly forget that the
vast majority of the country (either
the U.S. or UK) don’t see things from
their point of view. And those “flyover
states” may not be as densely populated, but make up a large portion of the
population (and landowners) of both
the U.S. and UK.
Because this vote counted people
rather than using the ridiculous practice of electoral college, the power
of numbers was greatly shifted from
those areas of “coastal thinking” to
the majority of the UK outside of
London and Manchester, who make
up most of the population.
Ireland and Scotland seem to be reported as almost 100 percent in the
“stay” camp, which seems counterintuitive, given that both have fought to
be separate from the UK for generations. Scotland recently held a referendum to leave the UK (which they
are threatening to do again now), but
I don’t want to digress too far from my
main point.
This “coastal thinking” is a large part
of why the market rallied Thursday,
as the financiers in London went “all
in” on the thought that the “stay”
camp had a lock on the vote, and the
rest of the world followed. When they
realized they had forgotten about the
vast numbers outside of London who
didn’t share their thinking, it was too
late. After-hours trading, futures and
currency valuations tanked immediately.
But one thing bothers me more than
the inability of people in coastal locales to see the greater discontent
outside of their own bubbles: the incorrect framing and repositioning of
the reason behind this vote. I’ve been
paying attention to the polling and
reporting on this issue since it began.
I’ve seen that every article I’ve read or
talking head I’ve heard brings up the
issue of immigration as either a footnote, or they incorrectly label it as xenophobia, or Britons being afraid that
immigrants are stealing their jobs.
With an employment rate of around
72 percent in the UK prior to the vote,
this would obviously be an incorrect
assumption, which is proven if you
listen to the responses of actual people of the UK (outside of London).
In “coastal thinking” circles, it’s much
easier to just label someone a racist,
sexist or xenophobe when they don’t
follow your ideology, but that will
never truly move an issue forward if
you refuse an attempt to get to the root
cause of the issue. Throwing blanket
labels and insults stops the conversation dead in its tracks and kills any
hope of progress beyond that point.
So, while London, New York City and
Los Angeles-based news networks
were claiming bigots and xenophobes
were worried about immigrants stealing their jobs, actual Britons were giving an entirely different reason: the
preservation of British culture.
London, much like New York City or
Los Angeles, has been a melting pot
of cultures for much longer than you
or I have been around. But there is a
key difference between how it existed
in those bygone decades and how it
exists today in a way that is alarming
to many Britons by birth.
Contrary to current U.S. military pol-
Andrea Slominski

L
et’s start this contentious conversation by stating the obvious;
no law is perfect. But, we have to do
something about gun control. No law
prevents individuals from breaking that
law. Does that mean there should be
no laws, only suggestions? Should we
suggest that drivers stop at a red light?
Should we suggest that babies ride in
car seats? In the U.S. each year, over
108,000 people are killed by guns, the
Brady Campaign says. This includes
suicides, attempted suicides, murders,
unintentional shootings, and police intervention actions.
A BBC report says, “There were 372
mass shootings in the U.S. in 2015, killing 475 people and wounding 1,870,
according to the Mass Shooting Tracker, which catalogues such incidents.”
The Mass Shooting Tracker?! It has
gotten so violent here in the U.S. that
we have invented a tracker, just in case
we lose count.
The Washington Post published a detailed breakdown of shootings from
August 1, 1966 to June 13, 2016. It said
the shooters had an average of four
weapons each. And one of them had
seven. From the shootings we know
about, 39 weapons were purchased illegally and 140 were legally obtained.
I really don’t care about the details
of the automatic, semi-automatic,
10-round clip or 30-round clip debate.
I grew up shooting shotguns, rifles and
handguns; we even had the equipment
to reload our own shotgun shells. I am
not unfamiliar with guns; I don’t want
to abolish the Second Amendment.
(Although it takes a lot longer to reload
a musket than you think.) I do believe
we have to do something to curb gun
violence here at home. There is no reason on God’s green earth that we cannot have mandatory state or federal (I
don’t care which) background checks
for everyone buying a gun from any
icy, when the British empire was in the
process of colonizing the world, the first
thing they did was enact British cultural
norms. The locals were taught the British way of doings things in everything –
from the military and business to speaking and culture.
This may make you a bit upset to hear,
thinking “how dare they invade a country and force their own culture upon the
populace?” But this is precisely what
Britons feel is being done to their country right now.
Their opposition to immigration is not
one of xenophobia, but rather an attempt to maintain their British way of
life. Much like the U.S., Britain is a nation of many cultures brought together
in a single place and celebrated. But
lately, many of those cultures refuse to
assimilate to the “British way,” and it’s
changed the balance dramatically.
Nobody really knows where the chips
will fall on this, and I’d suggest being
wary of anyone who claims they do
dealer or any private party in the
U.S. If you need a gun faster than a
background check can be completed, I
say you are most likely thinking about
committing a crime. How many impulsive murders or suicides could be
prevented by the background check
pause?
NO FLY-NO BUY IS A NO-BRAINER. If you don’t like that because there
are people who have been mistakenly
on the no fly list, then we need to set up
a better review process for that super
secret list.
And lastly, no civilian NEEDS an automatic, rifle-styled weapon that is similar to those used in the military. Why
isn’t owning a handgun, or a rifle that
is not semi-automatic or automatic, or
a shotgun enough? What are you hunting? What are you protecting that you
can’t do it with Glock, a Beretta, a Sig
Sauer, a Smith and Wesson or other
handgun? Many of these are already
semi-automatic!
I know that handguns are responsible
for many deaths in mass shootings. But
I am a realistic woman. We will never
get anything passed on ending ownership of handguns. The mythos of the
Wild West has a permanent place in
our ethos. But we can be more careful
about who purchases them.
While we’re at it, no one who has a police record involving mental instability,
violence, or an FBI record –- regarding
suspected terrorism links — should be
able to purchase any gun. Period.
If we gave up some of our phone and
internet privacy to monitor terrorism
and keep us safe from threats outside
the homeland, how is this different?
We have to do something; otherwise
it’s repeating the same actions and expecting a different result: insanity.
(especially in investments). This will
be a long, involved process, and may
take years to fully re-write the rules and
agreements between the UK and EU.
But it does go a long way to explaining similar sentiments currently held
by many in this country. Our country is
also one built by a nation of immigrants,
but also has its own very unique culture.
The Donald Trump protesters are only
fueling the fire of that sentiment by waving Mexican flags at protests on U.S. soil
and burning American flags outside of
his rallies.
The coastal news agencies quickly flock
to label Trump and his supporters as
racists and xenophobes, when in reality they are just proud Americans who
don’t like seeing America stretch her
arms to people who come to this country and refuse to adopt our culture.
Coastal thinking labels it as hate for another culture, when in reality it’s nothing more than a profound love of your
own culture.

Over & Over and Expecting Different Results:
Another terrorist attack (in Turkey) and the same
questions pop up about how to stop them. Of
course, nothing will change with our efforts, thus
the quote about the definition of insanity. The
Donald wants to change our direction regarding
the way we fight these chicken crap bastards, but
all he gets back is wringing of hands and peeing
of pants from the people who like the definition
of insanity. Why? They are too fearful of being
politically incorrect; all the while, we just wait
for the next terrorist shoe (bomb) to drop.
What causes the worst panic attacks is when
Trump touts the benefits of water boarding, and
even suggests harsher torturing to get information
that could save lives. His point is these guys shoot,
bomb, burn, drown, decapitate their enemies, and
then sit around and laugh at us for being afraid
to cause them some water discomfort. Let’s stop
the insanity and try something that may stem the
tide of murder and maiming.
A Short Plea for Reconsideration:
I’ll be all over this one in later rants, but to you
guys and gals who are rooting for Hillary because of your dislike for Trump, I really hope
you reconsider your thought process. I would
ask you to please, at least research excerpts from
recent books and released congressional reports
about her decisions, demeanor, truthfulness, true
personality, real motives and of course being the
only presidential candidate in history to be under
a criminal investigation during an election cycle.
Don’t be so quick to judge Trump until you have
the facts, nothing but the facts, on Hillary and
don’t do what many are doing, turning a blind eye
to those facts.
Help the Daily Paper Lean the Other Way:
The Signal is running opinion pieces by leftleaning folks – without contrasting right-leaning
views in sight. Come on, you righties out there
– I know who some of you are. Sit down and
put your right-thinking thoughts down and help
stem the tide of the left wing babbling that seems
to permeate the opinion pages of the daily paper.
I know there are Conservatives who contribute
from time to time, but it just seems as though
the other side is outnumbering us. The Signal has
two or three lefties who contribute weekly; let’s
get a couple of righties in there on a weekly basis. The only way that can happen is if someone
steps up to the right side of the plate and hits one
over the right field wall.
Speaking of One of Those Lefties:
The consistent weekly contributor to the Signal
looks like a nice guy, but some of his thinking is
out in left field. He blasts Paul Ryan for not allowing a vote on the gun control bill, but I would
ask this writer if he is aware of the number of
Republican proposed amendments Harry Reid
sat on, refusing to even consider a Senate vote
on them? Then he gets on Ryan for his only response to the Orlando shooting being a moment
of silence in the House. I say, that response is
better than worthless gun control efforts.
He goes on to say that nothing is being done to fix
America’s mass shootings. You want to try and
fix mass shootings? How about your pals allowing the FBI to monitor mosques, common sense
profiling of Middle Easterners, wiping known
terrorists off the face of the earth, or wait – how
about initiating strict restrictions on immigration,
having the National Guard pitch in and pre-
vent anybody from wandering into our country? While we’re at it, how about some good, ol’
fashioned torturing! These would be a step in the
right direction, but your side can’t stomach them,
so we’ll just keep doing the same thing with the
same results, while your side whines and cries over
gun control.
Moreover, this columnist glosses over the rulebreaking and embarrassing sit-in by the immature Democratic Representatives on the floor of
the House, singing stupid songs from the ‘60s
era. He then writes something about the shameful display of cowardice by the Republican leadership. My fellow columnist, I would ask you to
address the cowardice of your side, who should
be enacting tough measures to truly try and stem
mass shootings instead of worrying about politically correct crap that only helps enable the
shootings you are grousing about.
I’m Freaking Out, Too!
Have you seen how people on both sides of the
pond have been freaking out about Brexit? (That
word took off quickly, didn’t it?) Well, I’m freaking out too! I’m freaking out just like the UK folks
who voted to ditch the union. I want to ditch the
whole damn bunch of people in Washington who
think they know everything about anything that affects us regular folks. Especially the ones who are
motivated by feel-good emotions that eliminate
common sense from all aspects of their thinking.
When the feel-good stuff is crammed down the
throats of common sensers from a land far away
by clueless socialist types, it can or should bring
angst to the people. The folks on the other side of
the Atlantic certainly felt the angst, resulting in
an upset that has the elites in each country freaking out.
Oh, what I would give to have the same sort
of revolutionary type thing happen here in November! I’d like a revolution that says we don’t
want to see EBT cards being used by apparently
able people when we’re in line at the store, illegal aliens being issued driver’s licenses, receiving
subsidized health insurance, receiving free care in
emergency rooms. I’m not saying anybody with
a grave condition should be turned away, but it
makes no sense to let anyone into our country on
a willy-nilly basis and then give them the moon
and stars, contributing to our downfall.
You lefties out there, please don’t pull the race and
bigot cards on me just because you disagree with
my thoughts. I’m as caring and compassionate as
anyone, but damn it, this is our country, our land
and we deserve to keep it safe, physically and economically, by having some common sense policies! Of course, left wing pundits in the media
went right for the race card after the vote in Britain, because that’s the only card they know how
to pull when they disagree with common sense.

There is much more of this type of rubbish I

"Loving God...

Even the peace-loving Dalai Lama realizes the
common sense of having sensible immigration:
“When we look at the face of each refugee, but especially those of the children and women, we feel their
suffering, and a human being who has a better situation in life has the responsibility to help them. But, on
the other hand, there are too many at the moment.…
Europe, Germany in particular, cannot become an
Arab country, Germany is Germany. There are so
many that in practice it becomes difficult.”
Does this make him a racist with this line of

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

A
local teenager is prompting other local students to discover their dreams
and, at the same time, get a chance to win
an Amazon gift card.
Marina Zeng, a freshman at Valencia
High School, has had a lifelong love of
writing. She recently sought out a writing
contest for students of all ages, but when
she failed to find any, the local teenager
decided to design one herself.
“School writing assignments are often not
enough to stimulate interest in writing,”
Marina says. “Writing contests can help
activate a student’s passion, imagination
and creativity, which can benefit them in
college, occupations and life.”
Entitled “My Dream,” all kindergarten
through 12th grade students are invited
to compete. There is a separate writing
prompt for K through sixth grade students
than for seventh graders through seniors
in high school.
The younger group is asked to respond to:
What is your dream? Describe what it is and
what you enjoy about it. Be sure to include examples from your life.
The seventh through 12th graders are supposed to answer the following: What is
your dream and what would you do to pursue
it? Describe your dream and how you wish to
make it a reality. Be sure to include examples
from your life, as well as how your dream could
play a role in your future.
The team of judges has not been posted
on Marina’s website yet, but winners will
be notified in January 2017. The first
place winner will receive a $100 gift card
for Amazon. Second place receives a $50
Amazon gift card, and the third place
writer gets a $25 gift card for Amazon.
The essay contest is open to all K-12 students in public, private and home schools
in the United States and there is no entry
fee. The K-sixth grade essays must be 250500 words, and the seventh-12th grade essays must be 350-700 words. They are due
at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on
December 15, 2016.
“Everyone has a dream, no matter who
they are or where they come from,” says
Marina’s contest website. “What is your
dream? Please write an essay about your

National Trainers’ Award
Goes to Valencia High School
A
local high school has a sports medicine program that got the attention
of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. The organization gave Valencia High School the Safe Sports School
award, which recognizes champions in
safety and secondary schools that provide
safe environments for student athletes.
The award reinforces the importance of
providing the best level of care, injury prevention and treatment.
•
“Valencia High School sports medicine
program has had most of the requirements for this special award for some
time now,” said Joe Monteleone, the high
school’s sports medicine career path advisor. “Thanks to Henry Mayo Hospital and
the Hart School District for hiring certified athletic trainers, we now qualify and
reached the First Team status. We are the
only high school in the Santa Clarita Valley to receive this prestigious award from
the NATA.”
•
The school’s athletic trainer, Hubert Paz,
weighed in on the honor.
“Valencia High School is honored to receive this First Team recognition from the
NATA,” Paz said. “The Valencia sports
medicine goal is to lead our athletics program to the highest and safest levels.”
In order to achieve Safe Sport School status, as Valencia High School did, athletic
programs must do the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Create a positive athletic health care
administrative system
Provide or coordinate pre-participation physical examinations
Promote safe and appropriate practice and competition facilities
Plan for selection, fit, function and
proper maintenance of athletic equipment
Provide a permanent, appropriately
equipped area to evaluate and treat
injured athletes
Develop injury and illness prevention
strategies, including protocols for environmental conditions
Provide or facilitate injury intervention
Create and rehearse a venue-specific
Emergency Action Plan
Provide or facilitate psychosocial
consultation and nutritional counseling/education
Be sure athletes and parents are educated of the potential benefits and
risks in sports as well as their responsibilities
“We remain committed to the health and
welfare of young athletes in competitive
sports,” says NATA President Scott Sailor, EdD, ATC. “This award recognizes the
contributions and commitment of schools
across the country that are implementing
safe sports policies and best practices to
ensure athletes can do what they love best
and have the appropriate care in place to
prevent, manage and treat injuries, should
they occur.”

Eric Tovar-Plummer continued from front page
Until he had his own restaurant, Tovar-Plummer
said, he didn’t feel free to expose his arms because he
found people in the community expressed derision or
offense.
“The area is devoid of any connection to arts or culture because of the religious overtones of the community,” he said. His issue is the disconnect between
faith and fact, between science and religious dogma,
especially those that require “we accept certain
names before salvation, and that’s when it gets ugly.”
Tovar-Plummer is quick to point out that he isn’t
against religion or spirituality, per se. In fact, he loves
Pope Francis because “in an institution with a lot
of rules, he’s broken a lot of those rules to be more
human, and I can respect that. … He embraces the
teachings for what they’re supposed to be: humanity
and spirituality.”
It’s when closed-minded people enter his store that
things tend to get heated, like the time a 24-year-old
declared that there was no proof of evolution in the
world.
In a wide-reaching interview, Tovar-Plummer shared
his views on his sense of community, the role of
restaurants in building that community, the closedmindedness of religion and what he sees as the lack
of any culture in the area. Highlights:
Q. Why do you think there’s no arts and culture here?
A. Art leaves things open to interpretation, which
creates conflict in certain cases. It’s easier to avoid the
conversation than to come up with an explanation
that makes sense. All the (California Institute of the
Arts) kids have this great campus in Santa Clarita and
have no place to show their artwork to the community aside from their own campus. … The kids that go
to CalArts rent gallery space in L.A. because no one
will rent them gallery space up here. If you have a
college that’s pumping out artists who go to work for
Disney – which Santa Clarita obviously embraces the
idea of Walt Disney, and they buy every Pixar movie
for their children – but they criticize and make fun
of the kids who are going to school to learn to make
(those movies). These graduates go to work at Disney
but don’t live here. That’s crazy. ... There’s a huge divide out here. I had kids in their 20s who worked at
a restaurant I was at for six months (who) had never
been to Union Station or Olvera Street, and we have
a Metro station right here. … There’s a disconnect
from all culture outside that little hill that connects
the 14 and the 5. Nobody goes over that divide.
Q. Where do you go in the greater Los Angeles area
for arts and culture?
A. L.A. by nature is not central to anything. Everything is a byproduct of us selling out to the tire and
automotive industries and creating freeways and no
centralized life. You don’t go to a downtown spot
for anything. You go to either Downtown L.A. or
Pasadena or Glendale or Venice. There’s no central
lifestyle, so there’s no specific area. There’s micropockets popping up: the artist communities in North
Hollywood and Downtown L.A. … There’s a reason Burbank’s downtown flourishes: the studios are
there. We have studios out here. Why don’t we have
a community that welcomes these kids who work on
those shows in the city?
Q. Have you contacted City Hall about these concerns?
A. City Hall’s a funny thing. (You see) ceremonials, you honor some people, you say hi to people in
the neighborhood, you go into closed session (and)
you make all the decisions, and then you come back
out and say good night to people. City Hall, or City
Council, or a rotating-mayor system is not going to
do anything. It’s always going to be a ceremonial seat.
Q. What role do restaurants play in the community?
A. They have a civic obligation to build a place where
everybody wants to come, feel comfortable and talk
to their neighbors, and enjoy food while they’re doing it. … We have friends in the Pasadena area who
won’t come up here to eat at the restaurant because
they’re a lesbian couple with children, and every time
they come to Santa Clarita, people give them a hard
time: people saying things to them, or as they’re sitting at a table, people will have their religious conversations right behind them, talking about how it’s
an abomination against God. … (My restaurant) is
a place of peace where people who look like me are
not the only ones who feel welcomed. When I bought
this place a year ago, 90 percent of the clientele were
(at least) 65 and retired. Now, you have families and
retirees, and our retirees are our regulars.
people. “Not everyone feels like you do,” and I will
ask them to leave. I’m just trying to create love in a
building that I live in the most hours of my life.
Q. What’s your view of religion, spirituality and the
afterlife?
A. As long as we’re decent human beings, that’s all
that really matters in the eyes of any deity or spiritual being. This paradise afterlife is more population
control than anything else. We are forced to accept
a seven-day workweek, and all the trials and tribulations of everyday life, because if in the end we found
the right religion, then it was worth it. It was a test
to earn eternal paradise, but the reality of paradise
is (here). We live in paradise. We live in these perfect
conditions where we have the ability to love people
and walk outside and enjoy the world around us. That
is the most paradise I can imagine: the ability to share
conversation and knowledge. We don’t need anything
better. We just need to learn to respect each other.
You behead John the Baptist for practicing baptism,
but now to be accepted into God’s grace, you have
to be baptized. It’s super crazy. … (Yet) spirituality
is great. When people pray over the food, I’ll wait
until they’re done (before I put more on the table) because I respect and appreciate spirituality. But when
that spirituality doesn’t embrace everybody, then I get
upset.
Q. You should have been born in the 1960s. Don’t
you wish you were, instead of 1979?
A. We live in a time where nobody does anything
about it. All they do is complain. They don’t do anything because we live in a lazy, lethargic social-media-overwhelmed world. If people were being treated
this way in the ’60s, there would be a small group
of people protesting. Now, people think if they put
a hashtag – which used to be a pound symbol – in
front of a word and out it in cyberspace, you’re part
of a revolution. You’re not. You’re nothing. You’re
sending your words into oblivion. Nobody cares, and
if anybody clicks that they like your picture, that’s all
they did. You made zero change.
Q. You don’t sound like you have much faith in humanity today. Do you?
Q. Do you have your limits?
A. For sure. I have two small children, and I live in
a time where we should know better, but there is
no end in sight to the stupidity. (Donald Trump is)
running (for the) presidency based on a platform of
hate and propaganda. I kick people out if they start
talking about their political views and it upsets other
A. What do you do, get discouraged and give up?
You start to hate people, and then you’re becoming
exactly what you’re upset with: disliking somebody
because their view is different from yours. When
(views differ), the key is walking away.
Alzheimer’s Greater Los Angeles Grows to Serve SCV
By Martha Michael
Gazette Editor
A
s the number of individuals battling Alzheimer’s disease increases, the
need for support rises too. The good news for local residents is that a
non-profit group noted for its successful work with the families of Alzheimer’s
patients has extended its reach to include the Santa Clarita Valley.
The Santa Clarita office of Alzheimer’s Greater Los Angeles opened on June
20 in Valencia.
“With the opening of this office, we are bringing over 35 years of experience
helping individuals and families affected by Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias,” said Terry Garay, regional director, San Fernando and Santa Clarita
Valleys. “Based on the number of calls we’ve received since we opened, and
the number of people we have spoken with, it is clear that this valley has need
for local services. We are grateful for the opportunity to be here meeting those
needs.”
Last year, the organization served more than 93,000 people, including individuals and families personally affected by Alzheimer’s or other dementias. Alzheimer’s Greater Los Angeles also welcomes the business community and
healthcare professionals.
The non-profit’s programs and services are all offered free, including:
•Support Groups
•Care Consultations/Case Management
•Early Stage Services
•Memories in the Making Art Program
•Memory Mornings Social Support Group
•Multi-Cultural Programs
•Education & Outreach
•Respite Support
•Professional Training
•24/7 Helpline
“With one call to us, you can talk with a caring person about your questions
and concerns, you can get connected with others experiencing the same challenges, or you can discover resources available in your community,” Garay
said.“Our staff is also available for speaking engagements or to participate in
health fairs.”
In 1979, the family members of a support group met to discuss the need for an
Alzheimer’s organization in Southern California. The organization has grown
in its ability to be responsive to the needs of the community.
It was an anonymous donation that brought the new office to the Santa Clarita
Valley, adding to the grassroots level of generosity and leadership demonstrated by volunteers.
“We could not do the work we do without their support,” Garay said. “That
was true when that group of family members met to discuss the need for an
Alzheimer’s organization in Southern California in 1979. And it is true today!
We love our volunteers and donors.”
The office is located at 27240 Turnberry Lane, Suite 200 in Valencia. For more

Featured Business
Awesometown Vapors Gives Away AR-15 Rifle
By Martha Michael
Gazette Editor
A
Valencia vapor shop is hosting a promotion
that blends two industries with a single cause.
Awesometown Vapors is holding an opportunity
drawing for an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle on Saturday, July 2.
“We were looking for a way to call attention to our
right to continue to vape as we see fit,” said Awesometown Vapors owner Guy Casablanca. “We
couldn’t think of a better instrument that’s equally
demonized than the AR-15 rifle. Besides vape, it’s
the most controversial item on the market in the
United States.”
The goals for Awesometown Vapors’ rifle promotion include raising awareness and gaining public
support in the battle for the rights of the businesses.
Shop owners believe politicians are currently viewing the cause as just an internal struggle from the
vapor industry.
So far, Casablanca is seeing a groundswell of local
support by the public.
The vape industry is objecting to excessive control
by the FDA, said Casablanca.
“The regulations coming down are so egregious,
they are going to put the vast majority of the industry out of business,” he said. “We are not opposed to some regulation. But the industry has done
a wonderful job of policing itself. We don’t need the
level of regulation; we don’t need to be dumped in
with tobacco products because it’s convenient.”

That is Casablanca’s response to FDA questions
about the contents of vape juice.
“I only use my own manufactured juice,” said the
shop owner. “If it’s a better alternative for me, then
it’s a better alternative for the average person.”
The vape industry is fighting for rights with only
grassroots support, so far.
“We don’t have lobbyists,” Casablanca said. “It’s a
shame this industry is going to fall short because we
lack clout, not credibility.”
Casablanca sees the stigma of the AR-15 as similar to the image many members of the public have
about vapor devices. He specifically chose the AR15, because it has the same length and features as
many other weapons on the market, but its appearance casts a shadow over its function in people’s
minds.
“Likewise, when someone walks by a vape shop and
they see that enormous vapor coming out,” Casablanca said, “that is very intimidating for someone
who knows nothing about the industry. These two
industries are intrinsically linked. Whether you
agree with the symbolism we’ve chosen for this promotion, these are both civil liberties we are trying to
draw attention to.”
going to try to take this device from me, you’re going to get a fight. I know what’s in our e-liquids.”
He does not want vape regulations to be pinned to
those of the cigarette industry, just because it’s a
new device, which takes time to recognize.
His hope is that the FDA “reassesses, rewords and
reevaluates their stance on vaping,” he said. “Because right now, the FDA is beginning to look foolish. Science is coming out from other parts of world
(confirming) that the harm reduction in our device
is unmatched, unprecedented. We’ve never seen another nicotine delivery system that has ever worked
as successfully at getting people off cigarettes.”
Casablanca said he holds multiple science degrees
and is board certified in his field. That, and the fact
he is a nine-year heart attack survivor at age 46, validate his arguments for the benefit of vape products
on the market.
“If progress is ever going to be made, somebody is
going to have to step up,” he said. “It typically takes
a renegade within the industry to put themselves
up for public ridicule, before others catch on. We
(Awesometown Vapors) have been willing to take
the flak.”
Saturday’s AR-15 giveaway is aimed at communicating a broad message.
“Look at the larger picture of what’s at stake here,”
Casablanca said. “The fact that our rights are being
stepped all over. That’s the swath we are trying to
draw attention to.”
Awesometown Vapors is located at 25845 Railroad
Ave., Unit 11 in Saugus; (661) 288-1895; Awesometownvapors.com

Flag Day Tribute at Elks Lodge
L
ocal Elks Club members performed an annual ceremony honoring the American flag. On
June 10, a date chosen for its proximity to Flag
Day, which is June 14, Elks Lodge 2379 shared the
history of the flag with Boy Scout, Girl Scout and
Cub Scout members in attendance. The ceremony
included the proper method of disposing of a flag
that is ready to be retired.
General Washington at Cambridge, Massachusetts, in compliment to the United Colonies. This
flag, called “The Continental Colors” and “The
Grand Union,” was never carried by Continental
land forces, but was used by the Navy. It was the
first American flag to receive a salute of honor – 11
guns from the Fort of Orange in the Dutch West
Indies.
The following includes some of the history shared
by the Elks members
In response to a general demand for a banner
more representative of our country, the Congress
on June 14, 1777 provided “that the flag of the
United States be thirteen stripes of alternating red
and white and the union be thirteen stars, white on
a blue field, representing a new constellation.”
The carrying of banners has been a custom among
all people over the ages, and they usually symbolize
a concept of the life or government of those who
fashion them. From the landing of the Pilgrims in
1620 until 1775, the flag of England was the flag
of the peoples of America. The Revolutionary War
began April 19, 1775 and ended September 3, 1783,
as the colonists began to shape their banner or flag.
The Pine Flag was adopted for all colonial vessels, and was the banner carried by the continental
forces in the Battle of Bunker Hill. The Southern
colonies used the Snake Flag from 1776 to 1777.
Continental Congress appointed a committee in
the latter part of 1775 to consider the question of
a single flag for the 13 colonies. The committee
recommended a design of 13 alternate stripes of
red and white; and an azure field in the upper corner contained the red cross of St. George and the
white cross of St. Andres. John Paul Jones, senior
lieutenant of the flag ship “Alfred,” hoisted this
flag to the masthead on December 3, 1775. One
month later it was raised over the headquarters of
It is generally believed that in May or June 1776,
George Washington, Robert Morris and George
Ross commissioned Betsy Ross, a Philadelphia
Quaker, to make a flag from a rough design that
was provided. Supposedly, she suggested that the
stars should have five points, rather than six.
This starry banner was flown at Fort Stanwix (then
Fort Schuyler) near Rome, New York on August
3, 1777 and was under fire three days later during
a British and Native American attack. The first official salute to the Stars and Stripes on February
14, 1778 was made by France, when the “Ranger”
under command of John Paul Jones was saluted
by the French fleet on the French coast. This flag
was made by young women of Portsmouth, New
Hampshire, from stripes of their best colored silk
dresses and the white wedding gown of a recent
bride. It is said, this same flag was flown by Jones’
ship, the “Bon Homme Richard,” in its thrilling
fight by moonlight, upon the high seas with the
British frigate “Serapis” in 1779.
The original stars and stripes represented the original 13 colonies. In 1796, two additional stars and
stripes were added to represent the admission of
Vermont and Kentucky to the Union. The War of
1812 was fought under this banner. The sight of it
flying over Fort McHenry on September 14, 1814
inspired Francis Scott Key to write what became
our national anthem – “The Star Spangled Banner.”
On April 14, 1818, Congress adopted a resolution
that on and after July 4, 1818, the number of stripes
should be 13 and a blue field should carry one star
for each of the 20 states in the union; a new star
would be added for each state admitted thereafter.
Since 1918, the flag design has not changed, except that 28 new stars were added before July 4,
1912. This flag of 48 stars flew over the nation for
47 years until just before the Vietnam War. On July
4, 1959, a star was added for Alaska, our first nonconnected state; a year later, our island state of Hawaii was added.
The display of our present flag – 50 stars and 13
stripes – proudly represents our country. It is at
once a history, a declaration and a prophecy. It represents the American nation as it was at its birth; it
speaks for what it is today; and it holds the opportunity for the future.

COC Baseball Players Earn All-American,
All-Region, All-State Honors
T
he American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) has released its
2016 ABCA/Rawlings Pacific Association Division All-America teams, with
College of the Canyons garnering two
selections. In addition, the Cougars had
three players named to both the California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA) Southern California
All-State and Southern California AllRegion teams.
Earning ABCA/Rawlings Pacific Association Division All-America First
Team honors is freshman catcher Anthony Lepre, who batted .401 with 13
home runs and 47 RBIs in 38 games for
the Cougars in 2016. Lepre also earned
selections to the 2016 CCCAA Southern California All-State and Southern
California Pacific Association ABCA/Rawlings All-Region First Team. Earlier this spring he was named an All-Western State Conference (WSC) First
Team honoree.
Sophomore infielder Colton Burns was named an ABCA/Rawlings Pacific
Association Division All-America Third Team selection, after batting .406
with 30 RBIs and 50 runs in 34 games. Burns, who is heading to UC Santa
Barbara in the fall, also earned Southern California All-Region First Team
and CCCAA Southern California All-State honors.
COC freshman Chad Bible was named a Southern California All-Region Second Team selection after a season in which he topped the state in both home
runs (15) and RBIs (61). He batted an impressive .385 and scored 53 runs in
the season.
“All three of these hardworking studentathletes had outstanding seasons,” said
COC baseball head coach Chris Cota.
“Anthony, Colton and Chad are all very
deserving of this recognition and it’s
great to see them honored with such prestigious awards.”
Canyons finished the 2016 regular season
with a 28-8 regular season record, placing
two games behind conference champion
Glendale College, and one game behind
second place Bakersfield College.
Along the way, the Cougars led the state
in nine offensive categories: hits (477),
runs (337), batting average (.353), extra
base hits (166), total bases (780), home
runs (63), RBIs (305), on base percentage (.427) and slugging percentage
(.577) — and saw 13 players earn All-WSC honors.
COC qualified for the 2016 postseason, but was eliminated in the first round
by Chaffey College in a best-of-three games series.
The first ABCA Pacific Association Division All-America team was recognized in 2009 and is voted on by the ABCA Pacific Association Division AllAmerica Committee, which is led by Paul Moore of the California Community Colleges Baseball Coaches Association.
The ABCA, founded in 1945, is the primary professional organization for
baseball coaches at the amateur level. Its more than 8,200 members represent all 50 states and 23 countries. Association membership includes eight
divisions: NCAA Division I, II and III, NAIA, NJCAA, Pacific Association
Division, High School and Youth.
Bible also earned CCCAA Southern California All-State honors, and was
named the 2016 “Big Stick” award winner as the state’s top offensive player.

and coleslaw, as well as brisket and
s’mores. After 5 p.m., admission to the aquarium will
be discounted. If you’d prefer to eat somewhere else,
but don’t want to miss out on the fireworks, you can
get prime seats for $14.95.
Last, but not least, remember to be safe this 4th of
July. Police will, no doubt, be holding sobriety checkpoints at a variety of locations all across the county,
and conducting saturation patrols in areas with heavy
traffic. They’ll likely be bringing in a number of individuals who choose to drive under the influence,
and you’ll want to make sure you’re not one of them.
Wherever you go, if you plan to drink, please don’t
take the chance and drive! Make arrangements ahead
of time for a designated driver, get yourself a hotel
room, take an Uber or Lyft, or even a local taxi. With
a little planning, you should be able to get to and
from your destination easily and safely. From all of
us to you, have a safe and happy 4th of July!

Triumph Foundation’s Let ‘em Roll Casino Night
T
riumph Foundation is hosting its
7th annual Let ‘em Roll Casino
Night at the Hyatt Regency Hotel
in Valencia, California on Saturday,
July 30, 2016. All proceeds will benefit Triumph Foundation, a 501(c)
(3) nonprofit organization that works
to minimize the obstacles individuals
face after suffering a spinal cord injury and other forms of paralysis. The
fundraising event will feature: a Texas
Hold’em poker tournament, craps,
blackjack and roulette. It will also include a prime rib dinner, music, dancing and silent auction.
“For the last eight years, Triumph
Foundation has partnered with people
who become paralyzed to assist them
with triumphing over the new challenges they face and restoring life,”
says Andrew Skinner, Triumph Foundation’s founder. “The Let ‘em Roll
Casino Night brings the entire community together for a night of fun and
celebration of our accomplishments.
We make quality of life a reality for
people.”
Skinner suffered a spinal cord injury in
2004 in a snowboarding accident outside his family’s cabin in Lake Arrowhead. Andrew broke several vertebrae
in his neck, paralyzing all four of his
limbs and rendering him a quadriplegic. After years of extensive physical
therapy, Andrew regained significant
function and felt destined for a mission: to help others who suffered injuries like him. In 2008, he and his wife,
Kirsten Skinner, founded Triumph
Foundation with a simple desire: to
bring hope, resources, and mentorship
to people who are dealing with paralysis.
Last year, the Let ‘em Roll Casino
Night raised over $60,000. The organization plans its annual gala to be
inspirational, impactful, powerful, and
something that will change perceptions and transform lives.
The event is made possible through
sponsors that include Coloplast,
Greene Broillet & Wheeler, Experea
Healthcare, SCI Lawyers, Tejon
Ranch, Owen Patterson Owen, and
Ability Center.
The fundraiser is open to the public
and tickets can be purchased at http://
SupportTriumph.org or checks can
be made to Triumph Foundation and
mailed to 17186 Hickory Ridge Ct.,
Santa Clarita, CA 91387.
More event Sponsors and silent auction items are needed.
Founded in 2008, Triumph Founda-
tion’s mission is to help individuals
with spinal cord injury to triumph over
their disability and to inspire them to
move forward with their lives by pushing themselves to get better every day.
The organization provides mentorship,
resources, hope and security to people
living with paralysis – not just initially
when the injury/disorder occurs, but
as a lifelong support network. Additionally, the organization holds events
that are a captivating force within the
Every year 10,000-20,000 people suffer spinal cord injuries in the United
States. There are more than 1.2 million paraplegics and quadriplegics
living in America today. The disabled
population is the fastest-growing minority that anyone can become a part
of at any time. No one plans ahead for
a devastating injury that causes paralysis because no one expects it. When
something tragic does occur, people
are not prepared to deal with the challenges. Triumph Foundation assists
these individuals to triumph over the
obstacles they face. Triumph Foundation supports veterans, children, teenagers, adults, elderly, and people of all
backgrounds and demographics.
To date, the organization has touched
the lives of more than 5,000 individuals with disabilities; given $150,000 in
assistance to people with inadequate
medical insurance and this year plans
to spend $50,000; performed 10 home
and bathroom remodels; provided
wheelchair accessible vehicles to five
people who did not have the means
to purchase one on their own; distributed more than 1,000 Care Baskets to
newly injured people; and regularly
visits 15 Southern California hospitals
and rehabilitation centers throughout
the Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura,
San Bernardino, Kern, and San Diego
Counties.
entire disabled community.
Programs include distributing Resource Care Baskets to people with
new spinal cord injury, providing
grants to help people with inadequate
medical insurance obtain necessary
equipment; assisting with home modifications for wheelchair accessibility;
leading SCI support groups; and hosting adaptive recreational programs to
support disabled athletes. Triumph
Foundation is a chapter of United Spinal, the national spinal cord injury association; and is the Los Angeles Paralympic Sport Club.

Wyatt is a deaf four month old
purebred Australian Shepherd.
His mom was red merle and his
dad was a blue merle AS. He
was bred merle to merle,
resulting in congenital
deafness. He came to us
straight from his breeder for
proper placement and a lifetime
safety net, so he's not had a bumpy road or the baggage
that some pups have to endure before coming to us in
rescue. He's a perfect little guy.

Ask the Expert - Nola Aronson
from Advanced Audiology
Q: Why am I losing my hearing?
– SM, Santa Clarita
Q: What is Ear Candling? Is it safe?
– MP, Santa Clarita
Q: Is hearing loss hereditary?
– KR, Santa Clarita
A: Hearing loss is a major public health issue that is
now the third most common physical condition after
arthritis and heart disease.
A: Ear Candling (also called ear coning or thermalauricular therapy) is the latest alternative medicine
practice that claims to, among other things, clear
one’s sinuses, relieve earaches, improve hearing and
cleanse the mind.
A: Hearing loss can be inherited from one or both
parents who may or may not experience hearing loss
themselves. Estimates predict that nearly half of those
with hearing loss have inherited it genetically.
The three types of hearing loss — sensorineural (inner ear damage), conductive (outer or middle ear
damage), and mixed (inner and outer or middle ear
damage) — can happen to anyone at any age for a
number of reasons.
Here are some of the most common reasons why you
might be experiencing hearing loss:
Noise — Injury to the delicate hair cells in your ears,
from sudden or prolonged exposure to loud noises,
can result in temporary or permanent hearing loss.
Trauma — An object inserted into the ear, viral infection, explosion, or pressure differences (think plane
travel or scuba diving) can cause trauma to the eardrum.
Presbycusis — Age-related hearing loss occurs in one
out of three people over the age of 60 and in twothirds of people over the age of 70.
Ototoxicity — Although a medication’s benefits
typically outweigh the risks, such as chemotherapy to
treat cancer, medications can cause hearing loss.
Fluid — Abnormal fluid in the middle or inner ear
can cause hearing loss and other symptoms like ringing in the ears, vertigo and/or nausea and vomiting.
Wax — Wax lubricates, protects and helps keep ears
clean, but too much can impede hearing.
Diabetes — The circulatory issues that diabetics face
due to glucose overload also means they are more
likely to suffer from hearing loss.
The procedure involves a patient lying on his/her side
with a special plate above their ear. A cone-shaped
object covered in wax or paraffin is then stuck into the
ear and lit on fire. This is supposed to create a vacuum
effect that draws impurities out of the ear.
Despite manufacturers’ grandiose claims, the FDA
has noted that, “the product labeling is false and
misleading in that there is no validated scientific evidence to support the efficacy of the product for its
intended use.”
The act of ear candling is also dangerous. Ear candles
have been known to push wax further down and drop
hot candle wax into the ear canal. There are numerous reported cases of hot candle wax dripping onto
and burning the user or obstructing the ear canal.
Because of the stickiness of the wax, the pressure
needed to create a vacuum could actually rupture the
eardrum.
According to the Mayo Clinic, using an ear candle
can result in:
•Deposits of candle wax in the ear canal
•Burns to the face, hair, ear canal, eardrum, and middle ear
•Perforation of the eardrum or other ear injuries
There have been reports of home fires, hearing damage and reconstructive surgeries related to the use of
ear candles — none of which is necessary. The ear
will usually take care of itself and should not need
to be cleaned. Having ear wax in your ear actually
protects it and helps keep it dry.
Otosclerosis — A hereditary disorder causing progressive deafness due to overgrowth of bone in the inner ear, it may be accompanied by ringing in the ears.
Genetic hearing loss can be present at birth or can
show up later in life in one or both ears. Inherited
hearing loss varies in severity — from deafness to
mild hearing loss — and can be associated with other
physical conditions.
Like non-genetic hearing loss, genetic loss can be one
of three types:
Conductive hearing loss is due to problems with the
ear canal, ear drum, or middle ear and its bones (the
malleus, incus and stapes). Sensorineural hearing
loss is due to problems of the inner ear, also known
as nerve-related hearing loss. Mixed hearing loss refers to a combination of conductive and sensorineural
hearing loss. There may be damage in the outer or
middle ear and in the inner ear (cochlea) or auditory
nerve.
Genetic hearing loss present at birth is often tied to
other conditions as a person ages. One example is
Pendred syndrome, a genetic disorder that causes
sensorineural hearing loss in children and can lead to
thyroid gland issues and balance problems. Named
after Vaughan Pendred, the physician who first recognized the disorder, it is the most common hearing loss
that forebodes problems with other parts of the body.
Pendred syndrome predated numerous studies that
have proven that untreated hearing loss can lead to
a host of emotional and physical complications. As
hearing health continues to be linked to good overall
health, scientists also seek solutions to minimize the
consequences of genetic hearing mutations.
If you or a loved one may be experiencing hearing loss
and want to learn more, contact the experts at Nola
Aronson’s Advanced Audiology, (661) 250-6905.

On This Date in SCV History:
The SCV is one of the more eclectic and historically rich spots on the American map. Here’s
what happened in our wonderful little valley
this week in history:
of the most significant novels in American history: Ramona. The re-enactors cheated. They motored up from
L.A., retracing the route in a parade of mostly new cars.
60 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK, 1956 ...
• Most locals today wouldn’t know what Bermite is. It
was one of World War II’s largest munitions suppliers. It
continued to supply high end fuels and explosives into the
Vietnam War. On this date, a powerful explosion lit the
evening skies over Soledad Canyon, where the Metrolink
Station is today. Three workers were killed, another 14
were injured.
• The famed comedy team of Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin were in Newhall to kick off their Western, “Pardners.”
It was filmed out here. The comedians were the hottest
comic duo in America at the time. They hosted a party
for 250 members of the Hollywood press at the old Circle
J Country Club, off San Fernando Road. The event also
had the world premier of the film at The American Theater, which is where the American Legion Hall is today,
behind the Newhall Library.
• North Hollywood’s Dick Nunnally, 21, drove up to
the SCV’s lonely canyon to practice his quick draw. He
attempted to “fan” his revolver and nearly tore off his
thumb. Because of all the popular Westerns on TV, a quick
draw fad ensued. The #1 injury at Newhall Community
Hospital was the self-inflicted gunshot wound.

• One of California’s first new laws as a state
in 1850 was to enact the Plank and Turnpike
Road Act. The fine print declared that a private
company could condemn a private citizen’s
property and construct a road through it, as
long as the road didn’t come within 50 feet of
a building. There were 68 of these private companies operating toll roads in this state by 1878.
The SCV had Beale’s Cut, owned by Gen.
Edward Fitzgerald Beale. While a toll keeper
couldn’t charge unjust fees, travelers could be
fined $5 for walking around a toll gate. At our
own tollhouse at Beale’s Cut, most of the tolls
were paid out in gold dust. As late as 1954, a
Mrs. MacAlonan, whose first husband, Tom
Dunn, ran that toll house, still had the gold
scales used to measure the dust and nuggets. To this day, silent screen actor Wm. S. Hart is one of the world’s
