Ranchers’ water spared temporarily
LADWP says planned
May 1 irrigation
water shut-off can be
postponed
By Darcy Ellis
Managing Editor
Owens Valley ranchers appear to
have been granted a last-second
reprieve from a planned water
shut-off that most agree would
have spelled the end of their growing season before it even began.
The Los Angeles Department of
Water and Power announced late
Wednesday afternoon that it has
temporarily backed off a controversial plan to cut off water to its lessees on May 1, the start of ranchers’ growing season. The move not
only threatened the health of those
leases but was is also in clear violation of the Long-Term Water
Agreement, county officials said
Tuesday, vowing to take aggressive
legal action to stop LADWP, including requesting an injunction if necessary.
“As I explained at the workshop,
there is not enough water available
to meet all of the competing water
water demands throughout Owens
Valley,” LADWP Aqueduct Business
Group Manager Jim Yannotta wrote
in a letter to County Administrator
Kevin Carunchio Wednesday.
“Fortunately, there may be shortterm, interim relief available.”
That relief, according to
Yannotta, will come in the form of
reduced water use at the Owens
Dry Lake – something LADWP initially appeared dead set against. In
fact, its Annual Operations Plan
calls for an increase of water at the
lake for dust mitigation work, while
proposing a two-thirds reduction in
irrigation water for ranchers.
However, while LADWP said it
was hesitant to develop a plan that
would put it in violation with the
Great Basin Unified Air Pollution
Control District, GBUAPCD Air
Pollution Control Officer Phill
Kiddoo indicated Tuesday that
LADWP could use less water and
still keep the dust down, and had
in fact begun implementing watersaving measures.
He told the Board of Supervisors
and others present at a workshop
Tuesday – including Yannotta – that
even ramping down water use now
would save 1,000 acre-feet by fall.
According to Yannotta, Kiddoo

Inyo County leaders are looking at a new fee structure for
local landfills that will allow discounted disposal for nonprofit
agencies.
While the county has traditionally waived dump fees for
nonprofit groups working on community clean-up projects in
and around local communities, when the Laws Railroad
Museum requested a waiver for disposal of trash from its
upcoming Choo Choo Swap Meet, the board rejected the idea
and asked staff to consider reduced prices for nonprofits.
According to Inyo County Assistant County Administrator
Richard Bensen, funding for the operation of the landfills and
all waste disposal activities are provided by the waste management enterprise fund budget unit. As an enterprise fund, landfill operations are supposed to be self-sustaining; supported
by revenue generated by landfill users.
“If any one user is allowed to avoid their proportionate
share of the cost, it falls on all other users and the General
Fund to make up the difference,” Bensen said in a staff report
at last Tuesday’s board meeting.
Bensen said that Laws is an important community asset,
which the Board of Supervisors recognizes. However, “there
are many fine organizations throughout Inyo County and most
of them also conduct fundraising events. It has not been the
policy of your board to waive these fees for any organization.”
Bensen did point out that the county has approved fee
waivers. However, those waivers are typically reserved for
clean-up events that produce “green waste” such as grass,
leaves and downed tree limbs.
Second District Supervisor Jeff Griffiths also pointed out
that many sellers at the Laws Choo Choo Swap Meet simply
toss their unsold items into a large roll-off dumpster provided
by Laws following the sale, making it an easy, fee-free disposal
site.
Bensen said that approving the waiver for Laws “would
cause a reduction in revenue to the already stressed waste
management system.”
He added that approving this request would set a precedent, requiring the Board of Supervisors to decide which organizations, and under which circumstances, would qualify for
the waiver.
Bensen pointed out that currently, the county has no official guidelines for making such determinations.
As an alternative to providing the waiver, Bensen recommended that the board amend its regulations that govern the
two local waste hauling companies to allow them to donate
disposal services.
If the county goes that route, Bensen explained that the
waste haulers would continue paying their normal fees, so the
county will not be losing money on the donations. Bensen said
that move will also “give the hauling companies discretion
regarding these charges as part of the companies’ involvement
with the community.”
The board directed Bensen to meet with the waste haulers
to discuss that option, and return to the board with recommendations for an amendment to the county’s waste hauler
ordinance.
Fourth District Supervisor Mark Tillemans also asked
Bensen to ensure that the situation is explained in full to the
Laws Railroad Museum when the county notifies that group
that their request had been denied.

2 THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 2015 Tioga repairs needed
Caltrans announced yesterday that State Route 120 West – Tioga Pass – will be closed today so
that crews can “address rock falling onto the roadway” and perform routine maintenance
required in the wake of last week’s storm. The closure only impacts the portion of Tioga from
the junction of U.S. Highway 395 to the Yosemite National Park entrance gate – since that is the
only section of the pass open on this side of the Sierra this season – and will be in effect from
7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. For the latest in highway information, visit the Caltrans QuickMap site at

Continued from front page
tions” that complete water shutdown in five dust control areas
has been approved as a test that
can proceed without any anticipated air quality impacts. The
shutdown will start May 1.
“As a result of Mr. Kiddoo’s
obvious concern for the most
efficient water uses possible, both
at the Owens Lake and for the
benefit of other Owens Valley
water users,” Yannotta wrote
Wednesday, “LADWP is lifting its
May 1, 2015 irrigation discontinuation deadline. LADWP lessees
will continue to receive irrigation
water, where available.”
Yannotta, and the county, see
the next move as findiing a more
lasting solution at the May 7 InyoL.A. Standing Committee meeting
in Independence, where the county also plans to discuss with
LADWP the proper channels for
following the Water Agreement.
The SHUTOFF
The lessees were first notified
of the planned May 1 shutoff in a
letter dated April 27 – the short
notice in itself raising the ire of
Supervisor Rick Pucci when their
livelihoods, and Inyo County’s
second largest industry, are at
stake.
Harry Williams,
Owens Valley resident
“Since required uses of water
within Owens Valley far exceed
the limited water that is available
this year, irrigation will be discontinued in all areas except on the
Bishop Cone starting May 1 of
this year,” LADWP’s letter states.
“…A reasonable amount of stockwater will be provided where possible.”
LADWP’s Aug. 20 2015-16
Operations Plan proposes reducing ranchers’ irrigation water on
leased lands by 62 percent. The
plan also proposes increasing
water allotment to other in-valley
uses, meanwhile, such as the
Lower Owens River Project and
Owens Dry Lake dust mitigation.
According to Ag Commissioner
Nate Reade, approximately $19.8
million in livestock, row crops
and irrigated crops and pastureland in Inyo County – about 77
percent of total ag production –
are supported by irrigation. A
two-thirds loss in production,
resulting from a two-thirds reduction in irrigation water as proposed by LADWP, would cost the
economy $13 million this year.
The true immediate cost is
unknown, he said. It could be $5
million to $10 million in production, or $15 million to $30,000
when the 100 or so local jobs tied
directly to agriculture are factored in.
With the threat of such an
economic hit looming, the board
scheduled Tuesday’s workshop to
brainstorm water-saving options
under the authority of the LongTerm Water Agreement, which
several speakers agreed LADWP
had violated with its “unilateral”
decision to cut lessees’ irrigation
water.
The April 27 letter notifying
ranchers and growers that the
two-thirds reduction would be
implemented as soon as this coming Saturday prompted an emergency closed session discussion
prior to Tuesday’s workshop.
During that session, the board
authorized legal counsel Greg
James to send a letter to LADWP
notifying the department that
Inyo County would be taking any
legal steps necessary to prevent
the shutoff, which it calls a “clear
violation”
of
the
Water
Agreement.
The Water Agreement states
that irrigation water be provided

to lessees unless both L.A. and
Inyo County, through the Standing
Committee, agree to stop.
A five-plus hour discussion
commenced Tuesday during
which residents voiced the very
real fear of local ranches not
being able to survive the year with
no water – the result being a “dust
bowl” effect in the Owens Valley
that destroys both the agriculture
and tourism industries.
“If (LADWP’s) plan goes
through as it is, it will be a deadly
blow to agriculture in the valley,”
Supervisor Jeff Griffiths said.
At the same time, those present didn’t want to sacrifice ongoing mitigation projects to save
agriculture; rather, they advocated a more even distribution of the
water that’s available in this
extreme drought year.
The Operations Plan
According to Yannotta, a total
of 267,000 acre-feet of runoff is
forecast to flow into the Owens
Valley from the Mono Basin. After
six months, LADWP plans to
export 32,200 acre-feet of water
to Southern California, and about
120,000 acre-feet would be used
for city-owned property in the
Owens Valley and recharged into
the aquifers through conveyance
loss. The department will also be
exporting about 10,000 acre-feet
of its stores from Haiwee.
In addition to irrigation water,
LADWP plans to cut ranchers’
stockwater by 11 percent, from
11,500 acre-feet to 10,200 acrefeet.
Water for “Recreation and
Wildlife” projects would remain
at 9,500 acre-feet, already an 18
percent reduction from a typical
year.
Scott Kemp,
Owens Valley rancher
Enhancement/Mitigation projects would likewise remain at
9,500 acre-feet, already a 5 percent reduction from a typical
year.
Water would actually be
increased for both the Lower
Owens River Project, by 13 percent, and the Owens Dry Lake, by
7 percent.
The amount of water provided
to “1,600 acre-feet MOU” projects
– literally projects identified in a
Memorandum of Understanding
that must receive 1,600 acre-feet
a year – would remain static.
Tribal lands would continue to
receive 3,200 acre-feet under an
agreement with the Bureau of
Indian Affairs.
Fair Plan?
The total projected runoff for
2015-16 is a dismal 36 percent of
normal – less than last year’s disappointing 52 percent of normal,
which Inyo County Water
Department Director Dr. Bob
Harrington said was only reached
thanks to late March 2014
storms.
LADWP’s annual April 1 snowpack measurements revealed levels at 4 percent of normal – at a
time when they’re supposed to be
at their peak.
“It’s a very dire situation,”
Yannotta said. “There just isn’t
enough water.”
When LADWP released its
Operations Plan on Aug. 20 and it
was revealed that the city would
not be pumping any groundwater
for export until November, waterwatchers were surprised, but
nobody was smiling.
Some think LADWP is still
exporting 41,000 acre-feet too
much, considering the gravity of
the drought that is now in its
fourth year and will, according to
Yannotta, likely result in more
ditches and creeks drying up this
summer.
Bishop resident Sally Miller
questioned why LADWP will be
exporting water in November,
while Independence resident
Nancy Masters questioned the
legality – whether LADWP could
send water to L.A. for sale after
reducing everybody else’s water
during the Owens Valley growing
season.
Bishop resident Harry Williams
told the board that Owens Valley
drought has been exacerbated by
LADWP’s careless practices in
violation of the Water Agreement
– a fact previous boards did nothing to stop.
“(Are you) going to roll over
and let your belly be rubbed by
L.A.?” he asked. “That’s the history of the relationship with DWP
and Inyo County.”
Williams also pointed out that
LADWP will have as much as
160,000 acre-feet stored in
Haiwee Reservoir all year. “They
already took all they need and
left us to fight for the crumbs
and that’s why we’re here today,”
he said.
Options
When looking at areas for
reductions, Harrington had
explained that any cuts in the
“1,600 acre-feet MOU” projects
would have to be agreed upon by
all MOU parties.
The “Recreation and Wildlife”
projects are mentioned in the
Long-Term Water Agreement
Environmental Impact Report
project so far as “they will continue.”
Reduction of water on tribal
lands is a decision between the
tribes and LADWP.
Reduction in E/M projects
must be agreed to by the Inyo-L.A.
Standing Committee.
Reduction of water to the
Lower Owens River Project would
have to be agreed upon by all
MOU parties. One speaker suggested reductions at the delta
could save about 1,000 acre-feet a
year.
Reduction of water used on
the Owens Dry Lake must be
agreed to by LADWP, Great Basin
Unified Air Pollution Control
District and California State Lands
Commission.
LADWP currently uses surface
water to mitigate the dust pollution it caused when it drained the
lake in the early to mid 20th century. It is surface water that
LADWP is looking to “better allocate,” according to Yannotta, who
noted that between them, the E/M
and Recreation Projects only use
15 percent surface water so focusing on those in-valley uses might
not be productive.
He said the department has a
legal obligation to keep the dry
lake properly watered.
Kiddoo told the board that
LADWP had recently begun the
Tillage with Back up and Back up
project on 4.5 square miles of
lakebed, which should result in a
savings of 870,000 acre-feet and
keep previously flooded areas
non-emissive for up to three
years.
209-379-5716-Business
858-603-8516-mobile
instructor@foodsanitationclasses.com
LADWP is also transitioning
from shallow flooding to a combination of gravel and shallow
flooding that uses less water, and
is testing the effectiveness of
lower percentages of flooding on
certain areas of the lake.
More than one speaker
expressed trepidation at the idea
of significant loss of water on
Owens Lake – what Lone Pine
resident Mike Prather called “the
largest wildlife location in Inyo
County” and a birding area of
international importance. The
lake took center stage at last
weekend’s first annual Owens
Lake Birding Festival and attracts
not only bird species from around
the world, but tourists as well.
Fair Share
While some look at Owens Dry
Lake and see a health hazard
being controlled, and others see
an oasis for wildlife and still some
see it as an obligation, rancher
Scott Kemp sees “beaucoup
water” and wonders why the
ranchers can’t have some of it.
None of the ranchers leasing
land from LADWP expect to get as
much as water as they have in the
past, he said, but they need more
than they’re getting now if they
expect to survive.
Kemp said LADWP should be
shutting the water off in August,
not May, which is the start of the
growing season. He said he
doesn’t know if LADWP understands that.
He said the county will have
another dust hazard to worry
about if the water isn’t shared.
“There has to be a compromise somewhere,” Kemp said.
“This is going to be devastating
to the valley if ranchers don’t get
more water.”
Zack Smith, an alfalfa farmer,
echoed those sentiments. He said
ranchers aren’t looking for more
than their fair share, and said the
water they need is the key to
keeping the green areas of the valley alive and supplying crucial
agricultural products.
“This is ridiculous,” rancher
Gary Giacomini said of the
Operations Plan that slashes irrigation allotments and leaves oth-
Jim Yannotta,
Aqueduct Business Group
Manager, LADWP
board.
Noting that LADWP will be
sending 40,000 acre-feet of water
to L.A., she asked, “Can’t you see?
We need to stand up for this valley. Every year they take, take,
take, take and this year, they’re
going to take.”
Bishop resident Daris Moxley
told the board it needed to start
enforcing the Water Agreement.
“Start standing up for the Owens
Valley.”
Rancher Linda Arcularius suggested the board send a letter
directly to the State Lands
Commission recapping the issues
at hand and asking for a reduction in 25,000 acre-feet of water
– water that would help keep the
ranchers in business. She said the
dry lake shouldn’t be immune to
the water reduction mandates
that every other California agency
and government is currently faced
with.
Another resident said the
water the ranchers need is the
41,000 acre-feet LADWP plans to
export beginning in November.
Follow-up questions posed to
Yannotta were not answered by
press time.

important is the timing, he said. If
Smith can’t get his alfalfa watered
by May 1, “he’s done.” He, too,
linked the health of farms to the
health of the landscape that provides Inyo County’s famous scenery.
Rancher Tom Talbot wanted to
know how the lessees were supposed to have used one-third of
their allotment already, if LADWP
wanted to shut them off on May
1.
Supervisor Griffiths urged
everyone to get on board and
share the sacrifices evenly because
Inyo County can’t afford to lose its
agriculture industry.
Gary Gilbert told the board an
internal issue at LADWP unrelated to the drought resulted in him
losing his water, and his operation, last year, and LADWP has
yet to listen to his concerns.
Manning, among others, wanted a firmer stance from the

From the air
Kathleen Springer offered up this 1964 photo of Bishop taken from an airplane. Even in black
and white, the landscape looks much greener and more lush than it does today, with Bishop
surrounded by undeveloped landscape and farmland yet to be impacted by drought and excessive groundwater pumping. Do you have a vintage photo – of yourself, your family or even local

Continued from front page
trauma is silence,” keynote
speaker Dr. Satsuki Ina told
the 1,200 people at the 2015
Manzanar Pilgrimage, held
on April 25 at the Manzanar
National Historic Site, south
of Independence. Today, 70
years after the U.S. government officially closed 10
American concentration
camps that held 110,000
Japanese Americans for the
duration of WW II, the
Japanese American community is at a “watershed
moment,” she said, because
individuals and the community are making a “profound
healing journey” in an effort
to “reclaim” their community’s shared story of incarceration.
The human
“reaction
to
trauma is
silence.
”– Dr. Satsuki Ina,
keynote speaker,
2015 Manzanar Pilgrimage
Ina related this timeline:
In 1942, the camps were
constructed and the “forced
removal”
of
Japanese
Americans on the West
Coast to the camps began;
in 1945, WW II was over, the
camps were closed and the
internees were give a bus
ride and $25 and told to
rejoin American society; in
1969,
the
Manzanar
Pilgrimage began as a protest to bring attention to the
camp experience; in 1973,
Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston,
published “Farewell to
Manzanar,” the first popular book looking at incarceration; today, 70 years
after the camps closed, the
Japanese American community is openly exploring its
past, represented by the this
year’s Pilgrimage theme, “I
am Manzanar,”
The forced removal and
imprisonment of families
and entire communities was
an “atrocity, a trauma outside of personal experience,” said Ina, a licensed
family therapist, filmmaker
and activist who was born
in the Tule Lake Segregation
Center, and whose work has
focused on the long-term
impact of the incarceration
experience.
Japanese Americans were
“guilty by reason of race,”
and the perpetrator of the
crime was “our own government” which added even
more layers of complexity
and confusion.
Loss contributed to the
trauma, she said. The loss
of land, property, businesses, homes, pets and careers
was tangible, but the “invisible losses” were just as
severe,
because
being
imprisoned entails a loss of
dignity, self-determination,
power, hope, faith and
“pride in being Japanese.”
Experts in many fields
have detailed that “the
human reaction to trauma
is silence.”
The silence about life in
camp was a reaction to
“searing pain” and was necessary for survival. The
focus shifted to “silver linings’ of camp life,” she
noted, such as fond memories of friends, ball games,
events and gatherings.

Go to the
Choo Choo
2015 Manzanar Pilgrimage keynote speaker Dr. Satsuki Ina talks
with Manzanar National Historic Site Superintendent Bernadette
Johnson.
Those memories aside,
the general reaction from
those freed once the camps
closed was that “we all
wanted to say ‘Farewell to
Manzanar.’”
But that silence created a
“new trauma,” Ina said,
because the silence allowed
others to tell the incarceration story, and tell it in language that seemed soften
the reality: Evacuation not
forced removal; Assembly
Centers and Relocation
Centers, not Concentration
Camps. Instead of a unique
and complex history, the
blank years of camp and
hardships after camp gave
way to the picture of
Japanese Americans as a
“model minority” and “110
percent loyal Americans.”
Slowly, in the 70 years
since the camps closed,
“signs of healing” started to
appear,
including
the
Manzanar Pilgrimage and
Nisei and Sansei (second
and third) generations
“demanding the injustice be
addressed,” and pressing
for formal apologies and
official, federal “redress” for
those incarcerated, which
was achieved in 1988.
The Japanese American
community began to challenge the “language” of
incarceration, Ina noted,
and began to shed the
shame and fear of the past
and give voice to the silence
of the past.
“We are writing the story,
we are telling the story. We
are reclaiming our grief,
anger and loss. We are
claiming our history of righteous protest. We are
reclaiming our Japanese
heritage.
“We have gone from
‘Farewell to Manzanar’ to ‘I
am Manzanar.’”
The Rev. Paul Nakamura, and his wife Kikuno. “Rev. Paul” was
honored with the Sue Kunitomi Embry Legacy Award for his
decades of activism on civil rights issues, including marching with
Dr. Martin Luther King in Montgomery, Ala., in 1965, and being one
of the founders of the Manzanar Pilgrimage.

By popular demand,
photographer Ron Oriti
will be offering a repeat of
his popular February presentation on behalf of the
Eastern Sierra Audubon
Society.
“A Second Showing:
Raptors of the Eastern
Sierra” will be held at 7
p.m. next Wednesday, May
6 at the U.S. Forest Service/
Bureau
of
Land
Management offices off of
West Line Street in
Bishop.
Doors open at 6:30
p.m.
“The first presentation
of ‘Raptors of the Eastern
Sierra’ was such a hit that
we were able to schedule
another
program
to
include those of you that
missed the first one,” an
Adubon Society press
release states. “This will be
a repeat of the same presentation that was given in
February of 2015.”
According to the press
release, there are 17 different raptors that are typically found in the Eastern
Sierra. Oriti will cover the
basics of each species –
their natural history and
the differences between
males, females and immatures. The highlight of the
presentation, of course,
will be his photos.
“You will love seeing
these raptors up close,”
the press release states.
Oriti is a retired planetarium director and astronomy teacher. He was a
research assistant in meteoritics at UCLA, and has
co-authored a textbook on
astronomy for beginning
colleges
students.
According to Oriti, it was
his love of nature, and the
outdoors, that brought
him to the Eastern Sierra.
With the aid of the digital
camera, he has specialized
in photographing local
landscapes, wild flowers,
dragonflies, butterflies,
lizards, raptors and other
birds.

If couple wants to help ex-daughter-in-law, they can pay for therapy
Dear Annie: My
son’s
marriage broke up after 10
years. Twice they attended
counseling because his wife
wanted to see other men. The
third time, she was actually
dating another guy. He and
“Mandy” share custody of
their three children.
Mandy had a troubled
upbringing. Her mother
neglected her, and she ended
up in state care. At 18, she
lived with a cousin in
exchange for baby-sitting.
This only worked until the
cousin discovered Mandy was
sleeping with her husband.
Mandy has a college
degree, which she obtained
while married to my son, but
even while he paid alimony,
along with her rent and utilities, she never made any
effort to find work. She then
took the money she received
from my son’s retirement
account and moved to another state to live near some guy
she met on the Internet, leaving the kids with their father.
The children were devastated. My son now works 12-hour
days while his current girlfriend (a saint) watches the
children.
Mandy is now emailing our
relatives, claiming my son
beat her and the girlfriend is
beating the children. She says
she is broke and suicidal, has
autism and PTSD and cannot
live a decent life. If that’s
true, however, she would be
eligible for disability benefits,
but she refuses to apply or
seek counseling.
Mandy drinks and smokes
pot and obviously has some
mental health issues. She
threatens to sue for sole custody so my son will have to
pay her child support. She
has alienated her entire family and most of her friends.
She has no one other than the
current boyfriend, who lives
with his mother and has no
job.
Should we send her
money? How do we protect
our son?

HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
We experience millions upon millions of words in our lifetimes, and
most of them, though right for the
moment, are soon forgotten. Mercury’s
entrance into the loquacious sign of
Gemini today begins many weeks of
steady, fluent, abundant communication. Those who want to be memorable would be wise to do more than
talk – paint pictures.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You won’t understand everyone’s perspective. It’s natural to gravitate toward
the ones you do understand, but
you’ll only improve and broaden yourself by pursuing insight from the ones
you don’t understand.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You’re feeling inquisitive, and you’re in
the mood to collect things like facts,
words, books and the tangible items
that intrigue you. Follow your muse
without worry of the practicalities. You
can work them out later!
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You are an artist. The proof of this
won’t be in your work so much as in
your ability to find the beauty and
sense the deep significance of inconspicuous and overlooked details.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). A
relationship gets interesting when you
get beyond the standard exchanges
and dip your toe into the murky
depths. This is best accomplished
with a casual air, a light heart and a
lack of agenda.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may
have trouble explaining things in a
rational way today, but that’s only
because you’re leading with your
emotional IQ. You have a talent for
picking up on subtleties of mood,
vagueness and the logic of the heart.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Technicalities might hang you up, and
there’s an opportunity in this. Don’t
wish for fewer problems; get more
skills. Getting better at solving one
issue will help you with many more.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
People suspect the one who never
has a negative word to say.
Complaining can be fun. Sharing
gripes is one way many people connect. Alas, the guilty pleasure of complaint is also immature. Mature people
Holiday Mathis
do something about it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You’re not genuinely interested in all
subjects, but you still enjoy carrying on
conversations about whatever comes
up, because you’re genuinely interested in all people.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Your changing priorities and
resources will have you looking at
certain goals differently. Some goals
are not meant to be achieved. Let
your goals evolve with your life circumstances.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Once upon a time, you made an
agreement you didn’t properly understand. If you had known, you wouldn’t
have agreed, and yet today things are
working out just fine. Next time
around, though, seek total comprehension.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Seize the opportunity to get in front of
people to talk about what you’re selling. Whether it’s a product, an idea or
a relationship, you will be extraordinarily persuasive in your own laidback way.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
People who show up to help you will
need your leadership. Don’t assume
that the others know what they are
doing. You can be an attentive guide
without micromanaging.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April
30). Your high standards and determination are why this turns out to be
one of your most productive years to
date. In your work, you’ll be uncompromising, but in your personal relationships, you’ll be flexible and sensitive, ready to make the other person
happy. Adventures in August lead to
commitments. Aquarius and Aries
people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 15, 26, 12 and 32.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
ARIES: You want your interactions to be creative, enticing, exciting
and spontaneous, and because you
put that intention out there, they will
be. TAURUS: They’ll take you for who
you are if you dare to show them who
you are. GEMINI: You’re pulled in
many directions – that means you’re
loved. CANCER: The charming ones
aren’t always the truthful ones. LEO:
The ideal date will include sunshine
and physical activity. VIRGO:
Someone with extreme social smarts
will outsmart someone with extreme
beauty. LIBRA: Love is ignoring the
things that might embarrass the other
person. SCORPIO: Your physical
reaction may fly in the face of your
intellectual response. SAGITTARIUS:
Love is a game. Love is not a game.
Which is true? CAPRICORN:
Sometimes you just have to walk until
you figure out what you were so mad
about. AQUARIUS: The fewer words
the better. Make this your mantra all
weekend. PISCES: If you wanted to,
you could make yourself the central
focus of someone’s life, but you’re still
not sure how you feel about all that
attention.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND:
The Libra moon and the Taurus sun
spark a magnetic connection between
the two signs. Both are Venus-ruled.
Both care about aesthetics and want
to be adored for their beautiful qualities, and because each appreciates
beauty in many ways, they make an
ideal couple. If Libra can put up with
the Taurean stubbornness, and Taurus
can put up with Libra’s indecisive
tendencies, it’s a stellar match.

FISHING REPORT
Don’t forget the jacket (even if it’s warm in
Bishop). Watch out for deer especially if you’re on the
road around dawn or dusk.
Just like kids on Christmas, anglers were up early
on Fishmas pulling into the lot about 4:30 a.m. Temps
were at 24 degrees with the windchill down in the
teens and a pretty strong breeze with snow flurries.
Department of Fish and Wildlife stocked the lake
on Tuesday with a very nice load of decent-size fish
– many of those fish left the lake over the weekend.
Fishing at the lake was great. Those angler we talked
with said anything you threw at them they gobbled
up. Nightcrawlers, PowerBait, lures – didn’t matter.
Shore fishing, trolling, still fishing or drifting – didn’t
matter. Lots of .75 to 1-pound fish came out.
Chip and Tom Hughes from Orange County had
their 7.25-pound limits in just a couple hours on Red
and Gold Thomas Buoyants. Also, getting limits in the
wild weather was Kevin, Cameron and Kyle from
Castaic on Gold Kastmasters. Gary Temple of Fillmore
brought home a 2.5-pound rainbow using a nightcrawler. Mike Van Kirk landed a nice 2-pounder using
a fake worm and egg combo. Mike Forrester of
Fallbrook caught a 2-pound beaut using a root beer
colored jig.
Remember, when launching, don’t put your trucks
back wheels in the lake – that ground is slimy. We had
a bit of entertainment watching the cars and trucks
slip and slide on the road coming up to the lake.
A couple of weeks ago when we moved up to the
lake, we were greeted with one of our resident bald
eagles – flew right over after we parked and got out
of the truck. Since then we have seen a pair fly over
the lake – quite a sight.
The campgrounds in the Bishop Creek Canyon are
open except North Lake, Camp Sabrina and Willow –
bit too cool yet for the potable water at those camps.
Bishop Creek Lodge, Creekside RV Park and Cardinal
Village Resort are all open. Parchers Resort opens
mid-May.
If you’re coming to the lake, don’t forget sunscreen
and dark glasses – there is still some snow around
and that sun is pretty bright against the blue sky. You
may want to pack some bug juice – prior to the snow
storm we had some skeeter lurking – so best to be
prepared.
After the wild weekend, the weather will be getting
nicer through the week although there may be some
afternoon thunderboomers coming in. Temps will be
in the low 60s then drop to the high 50s over the
weekend with lows in the low 30s then to the high
20s over the weekend. We did have snow every day
from last Tuesday through opener – at least the trees
got a bit of moisture on them.

Desert Christian 6-5.
Desert Christian took an
early 2-1 lead and scored three
more in the second. The runs
were scored on Lone Pine’s
only three errors of the game.
After that, it was all Lone
Pine, shutting out Desert
Christian the rest of the way
and scoring five more of their
own.
“We cleaned it up a bit and
had good outfield catches by
Emma Howe, Cassandra
Carlson and Sandy Ratchford.
Our outfielders came up with
important outs including Kayla
Noland and Katelyn Button
racking up a double play.
Catcher Juliann Jones had a
good game behind the plate as
well,” said Coach Liz Jones.
Jones went 3-4 with a double; Kayla Noland went 1-3
with a key sac bunt and two
RBIs; Lacie Jones was 1-3 with
two steals; Button was 2-4 with
a double and “did a nice job
with off speed pitches,” according to Coach Jones; and Taylor
Corona was a perfect 1-1.

Secrets to successful
fly fishing
Fishing season opened last
weekend with the normal winter-like weather. Upper elevation waters were greeted with
snow and wind. Diehard fishermen were out on their favorite waters like Convict Lake,
Crowley Lake and the June
Lakes. I stayed in Bishop and
participated in the city’s Fish
Camp teaching 11 6- to
12-year-olds about fly fishing.
The high winds and cold
temperatures kept me home
Saturday afternoon, but I managed a few hours on the lower
Owens River on Sunday afternoon. Fishing was good, but
not wide open like I’ve become
accustomed to. I landed six
brown trout up to 15 inches
and missed another six. Most
anglers would consider this a
great afternoon of fishing.
I remember hearing a fishing statistic from California
Fish & Wildlife that the average catch rate for waters in
the Eastern Sierra is .5 fish per
hour. My personal catch rate
far exceeds this rate. There is
no secret fly or spot that
allows me to out-fish the general fishing population.
It is just hard work.
I’ve spent thousands of
hours on the waters learning
about the trout, the insects
and the waters that the trout
call home. There are a few
things that every angler needs
to know to increase their success on the water. I have confidence in the flies I fish. I use
a stomach pump to figure out
exactly what stage of the
insects the fish are feeding on.
Most of the time this is going
to be nymphs. The trout’s diet
is made up of 80 percent
nymphs and 20 percent adult
aquatic insects and terrestrial
insects.
In most of the running
waters of the Sierra, gold
ribbed hare’s ears, pheasant
tail nymphs, zebra and tiger
midges, Prince nymphs and
Fred Rowe
Columnist
copper Johns are going to produce fish for the nymph fisher.
In nymph fishing it is not
as important to match the
hatch as it is to present the fly
to the fish in a natural looking
way. The flies have to be
bouncing along the bottom of
the substrate – the rocks, mud
and vegetation that makes up
the bottom of the stream –
where the insects are naturally
found. The fly fisher accomplishes this by adding weight
to the flies or the line to keep
the flies bouncing along the
substrate.
I can’t tell you what the
right amount of weight is. It is
a grey area defined by what is
too little weight and too much
weight. If out of 10 casts you
hang up on the bottom eight
times and a couple of them
you have to break off or physically walk out into the stream
to remove the flies from the
substrate, you have too much
weight on. If in 10 casts your
flies never touch the bottom
or get hung up, you do not
have enough weight on. The
right amount of weight will be
in between these two and
allow the flies to drift on the
bottom, getting hung up occasionally. When the weight is
right you will be catching
fish.
As important as getting the
flies bouncing on the substrate
is, a natural drift is even more
important. As a fly fisher I call
this a drag-free drift. This is
probably the single most
important aspect of my fly
fishing. A drag-free drift is the
ability to float the flies through
the water without the fly lineleader causing the flies to have
tension in them. Because the
flies are attached to a line it is
easy for anglers to accidentally
put drag into the flies. When
this happens, the fish will
refuse to take the flies.
Learning where to put the
flies takes much time on the
water. The right place is constantly changing. A week ago I
was fishing my flies in shallow
water and catching the fish.
The river flows doubled and
the fished moved into deeper
water. I found that most of the
fish were now being caught in
the foam line along deep dropoffs.
Opening Weekend for me
was a chance to give back, by
teaching young children about
the sport of fly fishing. Fly
fishing is a multi-faceted sport
that continually requires the
anglers to learn about the fish,
insects and the water we fish
in. It requires much time on
the water to become a good fly
fisher. If you are like me this
means that you are out fishing
as often as you can.

Betting May 2
If the Clippers - Spurs series
goes seven games, game seven is
on Saturday. It’s a pretty sweet
sports day if they have to find a
spot to put a game seven so
people will actually watch. But
the first Saturday in May is a
holiday. The Gambler’s Solstice.
And on this holiday, the Derby
and the fight come first.
The Kentucky Derby
They go 10 furlongs the first
Saturday in May, but don’t let
‘em fool ya. That’s all anyone
can tell you about the race.
The two favorites are
American Pharoah (9/4) and
Dortamund (9/2). They’re both
Bob Baffert horses and he
always brings contenders. They
say American Pharoah is one of
those real contenders. A triple
crown threat. They also say
Dortamund is a phenomenally
large horse with superior breeding.
I say, not knowing a darn
thing about these horses, but
having watched enough Derbies
to know, a Bob Baffert trained
9-4 favorite probably wins this
race just a little under four
times in every nine. A 9-2 favorite probably wins this race just a
little under two times out of
nine. In other words, the odds
are probably about right.
Which means taking a shot
on one of these horses isn’t a
bad idea. I’m sure they’re both
excellent steeds, and barring a
disaster out of the gate, they’ll
be in the thick of it the whole
way. And if they win, they’ll pay
off about what they should.
But the Kentucky Derby.
Man, it’s just ridiculous to look
at. If you go to the races, Santa
Anita, Belmont, any track, on a
random race day, you see fields
of 7, 10, 12 horses, and 12 is
big. But with those races, if
there’s a move on the odds
board, or a heavy favorite, or
another horse that moved up or
down, and you know how to bet,
you can at least do some handicapping. “Late money is on this
one, this other one is a prohibitive favorite, let’s do an exacta
box with those two.” “A trifecta
with those to win and place and
wheel a couple of long shots to
show.” It’s crapshoot picking,
but it’s fun. Picking the top two
or three is at least possible in a
7-horse race. Even a 10-horse
race.
The Derby has 22 entrants
this year. 22! They max it out at
20 on race day, but that means
they’ll get all 20 gate positioned
filled no question. A monstrous
Louis Israel
sports Columnist
race.
In 2005 a horse named
Giacomo won at 50-1. I was at a
betting parlor with a buddy who
didn’t know the first thing about
gambling. He asked me what I
thought of Giacomo and I
laughed him out of the place. He
wasn’t too amused when he saw
had he thrown 20 bucks at what
I thought was a joke, just for
kicks, he’d have won $1,000.
So now I know. My serious
recommendation, as a race fan
and handicapper, throw in a
long shot. Go ahead and pick it
based on a name you like. It’s as
good a way to bet this race as
listening to tout claiming to
have inside info.
Keen Ice is 50-1. Danzig
Moon is 50-1. Far Right is 33-1.
If you want, put them on an
exacta with American Pharoah.
And stay away from the
horses that are positioned next
to the rail or all the way on the
outside, even if they’re the two
Baffert horses.
Come to think of it, don’t
worry about Dortamund at all. I
have a funny feeling Dortamund
won’t finish better than third.
My only other advice is don’t
turn it on late. The TV schedule
always posts it too early. Don’t
quote me on it, but I think the
real start time is 3:14 PST. But if
you’re two minutes late, it’s
over.
The Fight
Sometime a little before 9
o’clock Saturday night, someone
is going to talk into a mic, a little
bell is going to ring, and this
fight is actually going to happen.
I didn’t remember that Freddie
Roach was Oscar De La Hoya’s
trainer (as opposed to Mayweather
Sr.), when De La Hoya lost to
Mayweather Jr. Torch song
albums and hotel room high
heels pictures aside, I’m a De La
Hoya fan.
I already had the feeling Roach
hates Mayweather with a level of
seething anger I hope no human
ever feels for any other living
creature. The De La Hoya fight
only seals the deal a little more.
Too bad though, that information doesn’t really offer up
anything in terms of handicapping. De La Hoya was deteriorating at the time, and lost a split
decision. Mayweather was faster
and younger and was probably a
bad matchup for Oscar stylewise, even had it been at a more
prime stage of his career.
There’s only so far Roach can
take Manny, and I believe he will
succeed in taking him as far as
possible here.
KO hopes aside, if Manny can
land enough punches to be winning on the cards early,
Mayweather will have to be
aggressive, which is not his
game. Which means a good
fight.
If Mayweather wins the first
two or three rounds, it’s almost
already over except for the hope
of a knockout.
Then again, these never look
like you think, which would be
good because I got Mayweather
pulling ahead early, and then
dancing defensively out of danger for the entire rest of the
fight, putting us all to sleep, and
winning by decision.
But I’m not laying 1-2 on
Floyd “Money” and then sitting
there rooting for the fight of the
century to be a snoozer. That’s
not enough of a payoff. I’m not
doing it.
So I was thinking I’d lay a
couple of bucks that Manny
scores a KO in a particular round
at 33-1. Then I could kick back
and root for a thriller.
The problem with that is: it’s
a loser. Manny isn’t going to
knock him out. The only rounds
where it’d be possible would be
the 11th or 12th, and if
Mayweather is that close to the
finish line, he’s not going to go
down. So there’s no time a Manny
KO makes sense.
Smart
money
is
on
Mayweather in a decision. I’m
going to have to hope the line
moves. If it hits 2-3 I’m in.

Kentucky Derby
notes and odds
Register Staff
Saturday, May 2, the 141st
running of the Kentucky Derby
at Churchill Downs in
Louisville will take place.
They call the Kentucky
Derby, “the most exciting two
minutes in sports.” It really is
something to see a huge field
of 20 thoroughbreds break
from the gate in what amounts
to a 1 1/4 mile sprint in the
Run for the Roses. But in a
sport which subsists on gambling, everyone knows that
beyond the sheer spectacle,
the real excitement of the
Derby is found by holding a
piece of the action.
Last year’s winner was
California Chrome who went
off at odds of 5/2. The colt
won by 1 3/4 lengths with a
time of 2:03.66. The jockey
was Victor Espinoza and the
trainer was Art Sherman.
The record speed for the
race is still held by Secretariat
at 1:59.4.
Here are the current odds
on the Kentucky Derby.
Bets that a Triple Crown
winner (winning the Kentucky
Derby, the Preakness and the
Belmont in a single year) will
occur this year are paying off
online at 6-1 and falling. Pretty
lousy payoff considering no
horse has done it since
Affirmed in 1978, although
Bob
Baffert’s
American
Pharoah is now considered a
legitimate threat.

Angels trade Hamilton
back to Rangers
After just over two seasons, beleaguered superstar
Josh Hamilton is no longer a
member of the Los Angeles
Angels of Anaheim after
being traded back to his former team, the Texas Rangers.
The 33-year-old outfielder
signed a five-year, $125 million contract with the Angels
in 2013. Since the signing,
Hamilton has been more of a
disappointment in Anaheim,
batting a whopping .255 with
only 31 home runs and 123
runs batted in in 240 games,
missing over 80 games due to
injury. To say Hamilton
under-achieved as an Angel is
the understatement of the
decade. He looked like the
shadow of the player who
won the American League
MVP in 2010 with the
Rangers while being a nemesis of the Angels for five
years.
Due to start this season on
the disabled list (shoulder),
Hamilton’s relationship with
the Angels took a turn for the
worse this offseason, following an admitted drug and
alcohol relapse. The Angels
had not been happy with
Hamilton’s performance and
attitude but more so since
last February when the drug
relapse surfaced. A Major
League Baseball arbitrator
ruled in April that Hamilton
would not be suspended for
the relapse since it did not
violate his drug treatment
program. If Hamilton had
been suspended by the
league, the Angels would not
have been liable to pay him
during his suspension.
Hamilton had a great
5-year run with the Rangers
from 2008-2012, posting a
.305 batting average.
Since Hamilton was signed
to that huge contract in 2013
by the Angels, he has hit well
below his career-average,
even bottoming out last year
hitting just .263 with a woeful 10 home runs. He was out
of the lineup for the last
month of the season and
came back for the playoffs
against the Kansas City
Royals where he went hitless
in the three-game sweep by
KC. A huge overall disap-

pointment to what would
have been a favorite to win
the World Series if Hamilton
could have produced the type
of numbers he was capable of
producing.
There were rumors about
the Angels purposefully leaking information on his drug
relapse so they could more
easily get out of the horrible
contract given to him by
Angels owner Arte Moreno. The Angels are expected to
pay most of the remaining
$80 million Hamilton is owed
while the Rangers get their
older, admitted-drug-user
superstar back for peanuts. Good luck with that Texas. I
grew up a California Angels
fan and even was happy
when they changed their
name to the Anaheim Angels
but still resent Arte Moreno
for changing to the Los
Angeles Angels of Anaheim
back in 2003. Still sounds
horrible and will never fit as
this is an Orange County
team. Just had to throw that
in.
Hamilton did not report to
the Angels this season after
offseason right shoulder surgery, then self-reported a
relapse of alcohol and
cocaine use.
The ordeal is over for the
Angels, they wasted a lot of
money and look like idiots in
the baseball world but I’m
still a huge fan and will continue to support them despite
this negative situation. It’s
time for Arte Moreno to sell
the team and take his lousy
decision-making somewhere
else.
In other baseball news, the
New York Mets remain hot
leading the National League
East with the best record in
baseball (15-5). While it’s only
20 games into the 162-game
season, there’s still a lot to be
excited about for the twotime World series champs
(1969, 1986). Can the Mets
maintain this success
throughout the season?
Perhaps the biggest reason
the Mets have had early season success has been their
pitching. They are currently
second in the majors in ERA
(2.80) and 7th in Batting
Average Against (.230). Those numbers will probably
go up as the season progresses, so it will be fun to see if
they can maintain these numbers this season.
Another big test for the
Mets moving forward will be
scoring runs to support the
pitching staff, lead by up-andcoming superstar Matt
Harvey. While it seems to be
happening sooner than most
expected, the Mets are postseason contenders and
appear to be competing for
the National League East
crown all year long.
Meanwhile, back to the
California Angels who’ll be
just fine without Josh
Hamilton on the team. Our
young MVP, Mike Trout, continues to produce outstanding numbers on the offensive
side of the ball. He recently
became the youngest (23
years old) to reach 100 home
runs and steal 100 bases. Pitchers Garrett Richards,
Jared Weaver and Matt
Shoemaker will only improve
as they settle in at the top of
the rotation for the Halos. As
the Josh Hamilton saga/fiasco comes to an end, it’s time
for the Angels to play championship-caliber baseball.

Geek Girl
Revisiting the Joker and
the Dark Knight
Thanks to the Internet,
director David Ayer
released the first photo of
Jared Leto as the Joker for
Suicide Squad. He looks
terrifying. If I saw this guy
on the street I’d knock
down my own mother to
get away from him. He
looks like a demon-gangster-underwear-modelBond-villain, the most horrible combination known
to humanity.
However, what he
doesn’t look like is the
Joker. Sure, the picture
borrows heavily from an
image in the 1988 standalone story “Batman: The
Killing Joke” by Alan
Moore and Brian Bolland.
That HA HA HA tattoo is a
pretty good riff on a
famous comic panel, but
what’s up with that stupid
tattoo right on his forehead? Not even the Joker
is crazy enough to have
the word “damaged” tattooed in cursive on his
face. That is seriously
something an attentionstarved teenager might do
in a fit of rebellion. The
Joker isn’t really a tattoo
kind of guy. Sure, he’ll
mutilate his face, even cut
the whole thing off, but he
prefers sharp knives not
ink-covered needles. Also,
the tattoos look really
good. If the Joker did
decide to ink up, he would
go out of his way to have
the crudest, ugliest needle
work possible. Also, the
Joker would never be
tacky enough to wear a
pinky ring. Hawaiian
shirts: sure. Pinky rings:
never.
As much as I have
bagged on the first movie
image, I’m going to
reserve final judgment for
when I see Leto fully
dressed. The Joker’s
whole identity is derived
from the idea of the tragic
clown. It’s something he,
in all his incarnations,
directly plays into. That’s
why there is always a god-
Jennifer ellis
COLUMnIST
awful purple suit. The
kind of suit and how it is
styled is a huge indicator
about how the Joker will
be portrayed. The Joker
without his suit is just
some random psycho.
Hopefully Ayer will have
Leto suit up instead of
going shirtless throughout
the whole movie …
In other DC related
news, one of the most
iconic comic stories of all
time is getting a sequel.
Or rather, another sequel.
In 1986, Frank Miller
wrote and co-illustrated
(with Klaus Janson) a fourissue mini-series called
“The Dark Knight
Returns” and made popculture history. The story
concerns Bruce Wayne,
now in his 50s and dealing with all the abuse he
put his body through in
his youth, coming out of
retirement to save a
Gotham in crisis. If this
sounds familiar,
Christopher Nolan borrowed a lot of its story
points for “The Dark
Knight Rises.” Batman’s
return also brings him
into conflict with
Superman (something DC
is revisiting yet again with
“Batman v Superman:
Dawn of Justice”).
“The Dark Knight
Returns,” along with
“Watchmen,” was the vanguard for the Modern Age,
or Dark Age of comic
books, so-named due to a
grittier, more realistic
tone. The ’40s and ’50s
were the Golden Age,
focusing on heroism. Next
came the Silver Age zaniness in the ’60s, and the
Bronze Age social justice
focus of the ’70s. TDKR is
a very important book for
comics that changed the
tone of the industry and
led to our current books
today. It even got a sequel
in 2001: “The Dark Knight
Strikes Again.” This week,
DC has announced that
Miller will co-write with
Brian Azzarello another
sequel. “The Dark Night
III: The Master Race” will
be out this fall. The first
time I read “The Dark
Knight Returns,” it blew
my mind. I had never read
anything like it, and it
changed the way I viewed
comics and superheroes.
However, I’m not sure if
I’ll read the latest sequel.
First off, that title is
really awful. Second, Miller
is a brilliant writer, but he
is one of those creative
types whose brilliance
dilutes with each trip back
to the well. Examples:
TDKR was much better
than “Strikes Again: “Sin
City” is much better than
“Sin City: A Dame to Kill
For” (he wrote and codirected both); and “300,”
the graphic novel and
“300” movie were leaps
and bounds ahead of their
respective sequels. Third,
based on the stupid title
and promotional art for
the series, Batman in his
iconic TDRK pose next to
a Superman symbol that
appears to be dripping
blood, we might be in for
another Batman versus
Superman story. I just
can’t deal with another
one right now.

Bob at the Movies
Finally: a movie not as brainless as expected
By Robert Garver
‘The Age of Adeline’
In case you can’t tell
from the chilly April temperatures outside, we’re
not in summer yet.
Weather-wise, we won’t hit
summer until June 21.
Movie-wise, summer starts
on May 1. The month that
includes Memorial Day is
known as the start of the
summer movie season,
kicking off with the new
“Avengers” next weekend.
No movie wants to do moderately well for one weekend and then get hammered by Thor, so this past
weekend was a weak one
for new releases; the calm
before the storm, if you
will. The only wide release
brave or stupid enough to
open in this slot was “The
Age of Adaline,” a film that
attracted so little interest
that it opened in third
place behind the fourth
week of “Furious 7” and the
second week of (ugh) “Paul
Blart 2.” It’s a shame that
the film didn’t drum up a
lot of business, because it’s
not as brainless as a lot of
the films I’ve been seeing
lately.
Blake Lively stars as
Adaline, a 29-year-old widowed mother whose life
changes forever one snowy
winter’s night in 1937. She
gets into a car wreck and
things happen to her body
that are both highly scientific and highly made-up (I
BoB Garver
COLUMnIST
got a hearty laugh out of
the narration in this scene)
and as a result, she doesn’t
age. That goes for both her
outward appearance and
inside mechanisms. Flash
forward to 2015: Adaline is
107 years old, her daughter
(Ellen Burstyn) is moving to
a retirement community,
and she is still essentially
29.
I have to say, there are
worse things you can be
cursed with than looking
like a 29-year-old Blake
Lively for most of a century. This movie has a serious
problem with explaining
exactly what’s so bad about
Adaline’s condition. Sure
she’s seeing her loved ones
grow old and die, but that
would be happening even if
she lived to be 107 the regular way. There’s a madeup conflict about her having to keep her condition a
secret and run from the
government because she’s
afraid they want to turn her
into a science experiment. I
figure that even if government scientists do want to
study her (and maybe save
lives with what they find), I
highly doubt that they’re
going to jump right to dissection. Mostly Adaline just
suffers from social anxiety
which comes from hiding a
secret, which is understandable but unfortunately
boring.
We follow modern-day
Adaline as she enters into a
rare romantic relationship
with Ellis (Michiel
Huisman). He takes her
home to meet his parents
and it turns out that his
father (Harrison Ford) is a
former lover of Adaline’s
from over 40 years ago.
Adaline has to somehow
protect her secrets (both
her condition and her past)
and figure out what in the
world she’s going to do
about her relationship with
Ellis.
The film disappoints by
focusing too much on the
former. We have a million
movies where characters
have to protect secrets, but
how often do we get to see
a woman decide whether or
not to pursue a relationship with the son of a former lover? Some would
argue that there’s a good
reason why we don’t see it
often, but this film is tasteful enough that it could go
a little deeper without
being creepy.
“The Age of Adaline” has
a unique premise that is
carried out in a less-thanunique way with typical
romantic banter and a tired
secret-keeping storyline. At
the very least, it could have
done more with Adaline’s
view of history; we get little
more than a few scenes
where she gives a firsthand
account of an event that a
29-year-old could not have
witnessed and then she
punctuates it with, “or so
I’ve been told.” Still, the
film invests heavily in an
unusual (some would say
unappealing) setup at a
time when most of what’s
playing is frustratingly
familiar.
Two popcorn buckets
out of five.
“The Age of Adaline” is
rated PG-13 for a suggestive comment. Its running
time is 110 minutes.

Studies program at New
