1,000 Butterfly Miracle flutters to Bluffs Park
Lauren Coughlin, Editor
The butterfly is a transfixing
beauty, bringing joy
to most and harm to none.
But for Emily Shane
Foundation Executive Director
Ellen Shane, the butterfly’s
meaning is not just
superficial; it’s a representation
of the transformation
of her daughter Emily
Shane’s legacy.
Emily was 13 when she
was murdered in a reckless
driving incident on Pacific
Coast Highway in 2010.
Her parents, Ellen and Michel,
created the namesake
foundation with a goal of
spreading the compassion
and charm that their daughter
displayed — and to aid
middle-schoolers like her.
At 2 p.m. on Sunday,
Nov. 13, the Emily Shane
Foundation will honor their
daughter as they host the
second annual 1,000 Butterfly
Miracle at Malibu
Bluffs Park, 24250 Pacific
Coast Highway. All are
invited to the free event,
which will also include
live music, a silent auction,
raffles, art projects and interactive
butterfly exhibits.
“Truly, it is so magical
the moment when we open
the boxes and the butterflies
all flew out; it was so beautiful,”
said Ellen, reflecting
on last year’s event, which
drew roughly 150 attendees.
“It was just wonderful
and anyone can appreciate
it — it doesn’t mater how
old you are.”
To Ellen, the native
California butterflies that
will be released are a nod
to the role models and
mentors who have made
a difference in the lives
of local youth, such as
those who work with the
foundation’s Successful
Educational Achievement
Program. Community
members are invited
to sponsor butterflies for
$10 each at www.gofund
me.com/1000butterfly16.
Sponsorships will also be
accepted at the event.
The $10 amount represents
the cost of one hour
of mentoring a student
through the foundation’s
SEA Program, though Ellen
said the funds will also help
to cover event expenses.
The foundation’s SEA
Program offers one-onone
assistance for struggling
and/or failing middle
schoolers who cannot otherwise
afford educational
support (instead of paying
in currency, the foundation
Timea Rosner participates in the Emily Shane
Foundation’s butterfly release in 2015. This year’s event
will be held at Malibu Bluffs Park on Sunday, Nov. 13.

“You have a lot of kids
who really are having a
tough time because they
shouldn’t be in the grade
they’re in,” Ellen said.
The program employs
young adults who aid
roughly 90 students from
Malibu, Oxnard, South
L.A., Pico Rivera, Culver
City, Santa Monica and
Westchester. Most students
meet with mentors twice a
week to focus on academics,
test preparation, organization
skills and more.
“They’re phenomenal role
models,” Ellen said. “It just
works really, really well.”
Ellen said SEA has a
waiting list of students
who they hope to accommodate.
With the help of those at
the Emily Shane Foundation,
a metamorphosis becomes
possible.

The youngster dressed up

The dynamic duo has
a long history of dressing
up together, and this

MRT celebrates 35 years of preservation
Barbara Burke
Freelance Reporter
Mountains Restoration
Trust celebrated 35 years
of preservation and environmental
restoration on
Oct. 30 at the Dark Canyon
Ranch in a very wellattended
fundraiser.
The event was hosted by
Suze Randall and catered
by Blue Table. Attendees
enjoyed tunes played by
Dorado.
“The Mountains Restoration
Trust is very important
to Malibu because it helps
to preserve what Malibu
is all about,” said Malibuite
Theresa Cavalleri, who
works for Mountains Restoration
Trust. “I was born
and raised in Malibu and
the mountains are a very
important dimension of
Malibu.”
Funds raised at the event,
which included a silent auction,
will go to help raise
monies to rebuild offices
for Mountains Restoration
Trust, whose office was
the only structure to fall
victim to the June 4, 2016
Old Fire. The fire destroyed
nearly 500 acres of wildlands
in the Santa Monica
Mountains. Some funds
raised at the event will be
allocated to maintain Cold
Creek Preserve.
“Headwaters Corner at
Calabasas is an interpretive
center for urban-wildland
interface issues, and how
we humans can have a mutually
beneficial existence
with the unique environment
in which we live,” explained
Debbie Sharpton,
a Mountains Restoration
Trust employee. “There are
many things that insurance
will not cover, so we intend
to raise money to make the
interpretive center all that it
can be for the communities
of the Santa Monica Mountains,
besides just being a
home for Mountains Restoration
Trust.
“Many people visit the
Lois Ewen Overlook at
the intersection of Stunt,
Saddlepeak and Schuren
roads. People come to see
the magnificent views from
every angle. It’s unfortunate
that some have not embraced
a land ethic that precludes
trashing and graffiti.
There is much work to do
with invasive non-native
plants, too. The funds will
also help Mountains Restoration
Trust take care of the
land for all to enjoy.”
Mountains Restoration
Trust focuses on natural
resource protection in the
Santa Monica Mountains,
the world’s largest urban
park, measuring 153,075
acres. The organization has
accomplished many things
in the past 35 years.
“The Trust has helped
with maintaining the plants
that State Parks has installed
at the Malibu Lagoon.
We work cooperatively
with State Parks and
the Resource Conservation
District,” Sharpton said.
“Mountains Restoration
Trust focuses on wetland
and riparian habitats because
there is only a small
fraction of that type of habitat
in our mountains, yet
the habitat is critical for the
85 percent of the wildlife
during some point in their
life cycles. Many plants are
dependent on being close
to the water or water table,
so they are only found in
the canyon bottoms, where
streams are. Streams protect
the quality of water,
convey water to the ocean
and are migratory pathways
for animals.”
Since 2010, Mountains
Restoration Trust has
worked to remove the nonnative,
invasive crayfish
and other aquatic invasive
species from the Malibu
Creek watershed in order to
enhance and restore habitat
for southern California
steelhead trout and other
endangered species. This
grassroots effort began with
the help of a hardworking
group of local fly fishers.
“This effort brought
about grant funds which
expanded the project, and
we have now removed over
200,000 crayfish from the
Malibu Creek watershed,”
Sharpton said. “Much of
the work is done by enthused
volunteers from the
community.”
Jo Powe, president of
the Board of Directors for
Mountains Restoration
Trust, emphasized how
helpful the organization is
to Malibuites.
“We do a lot of work in
Malibu creeks, we helped
with the Malibu Lagoon
restoration project and we
work on state parks along
Malibu Canyon Road,”
Powe explained.
Robert Wayne, a UCLA
distinguished professor of
ecology and evolutionary
biology who serves on the
board of Mountains Restoration
Trust, spoke at the
35th anniversary event.
In an interview with Malibu
Surfside News, Wayne
expanded on why Mountains
Restoration Trust is
important to Malibu and its
surroundings.
“I am dedicated to the
conservation of the unique

speeches at the Mountains Restoration Trust 35th Anniversary Celebration on Oct. 30.

natural environment of the
Santa Monica Mountains
and its wildlife,” Wayne
said. “I have been working
with Mountains Restoration
Trust for about 15
years. I have been teaching
conservation biology
to over 250 students each
year for this period and it is
amazing, how many are LA
residents and know next
to nothing about the Santa
Monica Mountains.”
Wayne emphasized that
Mountains Restoration
Trust focuses on preserving
and enhancing creeks and
watersheds, in Malibu and
beyond.
“One focus of the Mountains
Restoration Trust,
the Cold Creek drainage,
is perhaps the most pristine
watershed in the entire
Santa Monica Mountains,”
Wayne said. “It contains
the only stable or expanding
population of newts, as
verified by studies by Lee
Kats at Pepperdine. It does
not yet have invasive species
such as crayfish that
ravage Malibu Creek. Even
New Zealand mud snails,
which have invaded everywhere,
have not reached the
upper watershed of Cold
Creek, which drains into
Malibu Creek. We aim to
preserve lands which sustain
the diversity in Malibu
and elsewhere, and when
Malibu residents want to

take a hike through native
chaparral, we are the protected
habitat where they
can do so. Our roads are
the best for biking in the
mountains. Stunt Road, for
example, has 85 percent of
the road frontage entirely
in the public, undeveloped
domain. It is beautiful.”
Over the years, Mountains
Restoration Trust has
restored hundreds of acres
of oak woodlands, riparian
corridors and chaparral
plant communities throughout
the mountains on parklands
owned and managed
by the various agencies
that work there, including
California State Parks and
county and city agencies.
Since its inception,
Mountains Restoration
Trust has focused on natural
resource protection and
density reductions in what
Sharpton characterizes as
“the ill-conceived small lot
subdivisions such as Monte
Nido and El Nido.”
Sharpton began her career
in real estate, but later
became concerned in the
1980s that lands rich in natural
resources were being
targeted for development
purposes.
“The Santa Monica
Mountains for the most
part have been subdivided
into small lots. Mountains
Restoration Trust works on
acquiring these small lots
that are critical to the protection
of streams, wildlife
corridors and trails.”
During its existence,
Mountains Restoration
Trust has acquired more
than 6,500 acres, including
2,000 acres in the Cold
Creek Preserve, which protects
Cold Creek and its
surrounding ecosystems,
and La Sierra Preserve,
a designated Significant
Ecological Area within the
Santa Monica Mountains.
“La Sierra is a prime
wildlife habitat, biologically
diverse, and rich in
willow riparian habitat,
oak woodland, mixed riparian
woodland, coastal
sage scrub, wetlands,
grasslands, and chaparral,”
Sharpton said. “La Sierra
provides habitat linkages
to springs, seeps and wetland
areas that are critical
to wildlife in the Malibu
Creek Watershed.”
Another recent acquisition
by Mountains Restoration
Trust added 80 acres to
the Cold Creek Preserve in
Old Topanga Canyon, protecting
migratory routes
and combining isolated
protected lands. The Cold
Creek preserve offers recreational
hiking trails,
which offers easy walks
along the perennial Cold
Creek. Hiking can also be
enjoyed through the rolling
chaparral scrub basin,
which is surrounded by upturned
sedimentary sandstones
and intrusive basalt
dikes. A wide variety of
birds and microclimates
may be encountered along
the trails.
State Sen. Fran Pavley
attended the event and presented
the Trust with a certificate
of commendation
on behalf of residents of the
27th Senate District.
“As a long-time member
of the Santa Monica
Mountains Conservancy
Advisory Committee, I
am a big fan of the work
of the Mountains Restoration
Trust,” Pavley said in
a written statement. “Its
work has helped to acquire
and restore public lands
and to increase public access
and awareness of the
natural treasures that are
figuratively in the backyard
of millions of Southern
Californians.”
As part of its awareness
efforts, Mountains Restoration
Trust holds community
involvement events,
attracting approximately
2,000 participants annually.
“It makes those who attend
feel what it means to
be an owner of these lands,”
Sharpton said. “Public park
lands are owned by the public
at large and managed by
the resource agencies we
pay. Mountains Restoration
Trust holds numerous
education events and
school outdoor education
programs, reaching 2,000
to over 5,000 individuals
some years.”
Mountains Restoration
Trust is also highly involved
in educational outreach.
The Cold Creek docents
lead field programs for
public and private schools
in the Los Angeles region.
The docents focus on
educating the public, particularly
school children,
about the natural and cultural
history of the Cold
Creek watershed and its
relationship to the Santa
Monica Mountains and
worldwide ecological
principles. They conduct
hands-on programs — including
geology, Chumash
Indian studies, ethnobotany
and chaparral ecology — to
promote conservation and
stewardship of the Cold
Creek watershed.
The organization also
offers vegetation restoration
events and crayfish
removal events multiple
times a month at its restoration
sites.
The vegetation restoration
events involve planting
and caring for native trees
and plants, and weeding out
the invasive plants.
The crayfish removal
events involve trapping
non-native crayfish, recording
data and removing trash
in the streams of the Malibu
Creek Watershed.
In 2017, Mountains Restoration
Trust aims to enhance
and restore the live

Malibu Library speaker Susan Casey shares tales of the sea
Barbara Burke
Freelance Reporter
She came recounting
tales of terrible, giant
waves that capsized large
ships, and of intriguing
dolphins and other sea animals,
exciting attendees of
the Malibu Library Speaker
Series on Nov. 2.
Avid fans welcomed
renowned journalist and
author Susan Casey, who
talked about her three New
York Times bestsellers.
“I always loved to write.
I knew I wanted to be a storyteller,
and I did that as
a magazine editor and art
director, as well as a writer,”
Casey told the Malibu
Surfside News. “But now
I focus solely on writing
because that’s really where
my heart is. I want to use
every creative means I can
to inspire people to love
and revere nature, especially
the ocean.”
Casey does a deep dive
(pun intended) when she
researches for her novels.
The hallmark of her three
bestselling books is her
unique ability to depict intense
moments in such intricate
detail that the reader
feels as if they are there.
Casey intricately weaves
scientific data and facts
with tales about the ocean
and its inhabitants.
“It’s a slippery slope you
go into when you start to
write a novel,” Casey told
the attentive audience.
“You emerge about five
years later, and there is still
more you are learning and
could add to the book.”
Casey said she got the
idea to write “The Wave:
In Pursuit of the Rogues,
Freaks, and Giants of the
Ocean” when she queried
to herself “What do you
mean the ocean is coming
ashore?”
“The ocean is key to our
existence. It’s not like the
ocean can go to hell in a
hand basket and we will
be OK. We won’t be OK,”
Casey said. “We are part of
nature — we don’t run it,
and it doesn’t answer to us.
If it doesn’t thrive, neither
will we.”
Casey decided to write
her second novel, “The
Devil’s Teeth: A True Story
of Obsession and Survival
Among America’s Great
White Sharks,” when she
realized that, only minutes
and a mere 27 miles from
San Francisco, there are
great white sharks who live
in very adverse maritime
conditions in the Farallon
Islands, an area sailors
named the “devil’s teeth” in
the 1850s.
Intrigued, Casey did exhaustive
research, maneuvering
through regulations,
restrictions and barriers to
join a group of scientists
studying predation patterns
by great white sharks
within the “Red Triangle,”
off the coast of northern
California.
“Scientists began to
study great white sharks
intensely, and when they

did, for every question they
answered, they discovered
there were five more questions.
If ever there was an
animal that needs an immense
public relations
overhaul, it is the great
white shark,” Casey said.
“These amazing animals
can weigh more than 2,000
pounds, can travel at speeds
up to 40 miles per hour, and
they are warm blooded.”
The audience leaned in
as Casey shared pictures.
“At some point in my
journey out there, I passed
that invisible border where
humans are no longer in
control and there are very
harsh conditions. This area
is on a different tectonic
plate. All the currents collide
and there is massive
up-welling,” Casey said to
the enthralled listeners.
“Going to where civilization
stops, and where the
wild starts is a theme I like
to return to again and again
in my books,” she said.
“There is a sense of wonder
and humility where nature
confounds man’s attempts
to run the joint.”
Casey’s constant curiosity
and her dogged attention
to research and details,
entrenched with her moral
ethic that man must not be
irresponsible in nature, led
her to write her third novel,
“Voices in the Ocean: A
Journey Into the Wild and
Haunting World of Dolphins.”
“I was at an emotionally
devastating time of life,
dealing with loss, when
I had an encounter with
spinner dolphins,” Casey
said, recounting the time
when, shortly after losing
her beloved father and going
through a divorce, she
swam off the coast of one
of the Hawaiian islands one
evening.
“They had to work hard
to swim with me because
they usually don’t swim
that slowly,” she said.
“When you look at a dolphin,
you know it is looking
back at you. We know
scientifically that dolphins
are self-aware. We know
each dolphin has a signature
whistle that he is given
at birth. That experience really
rocked my world. My
grief broke. It had not gone
away, but it never had such
a strong hold on me again.”
Casey showed the audience
two brain images juxtaposed
– one of a human,
and one of a dolphin.
“If you were going to design
a computer, you would
design it to be structured
like the brain of the dolphin,”
Casey said. “The
dolphin’s larger brain has
an extra lobe in the limbic
system. Their brains
have elaborated tissue, and
the area of their brain responsible
for emotion and
memory is very well developed.
We know when they
are processing emotions,
something very sophisticated
is going on.”
Casey added that when
one dolphin is sick, the
other dolphins bring the
sick dolphin to the surface
of the water.
“We do not understand
it, but the dolphins seem to
not have a sense of ‘me’ as a
separate entity, but rather, it
is a collective awareness,”
Casey said. “It is on a level
beyond empathy. Instead of
‘I care about you,’ in some
way, they seem to have an
awareness of ‘I am you.’”
Talk turned to the stresses
sea animals are coping with
due to pesticides and more.
Casey added that there is
an increasing mortality rate

Trancas Field use discussed at community workshop
Eric Billingsley
Freelance Reporter
The Malibu City Council
held a special meeting on
Wednesday, Nov. 2, at the
Malibu West Beach Club
on Pacific Coast Highway,
to gather community input
on possible future uses
of 35 acres of open space
known as Trancas Field.
The City Council recently
approved purchasing
the land, located at Trancas
Canyon Road and PCH, to
protect it from high-density
development.
“The City Council directed
us to go out and get public
input on Trancas Field,”
said Assistant City Manager
Lisa Soghor. “This is
the first step in the process.
We’re getting a sense of
what the community wants
to see happen.”
There are currently no
formal plans for how the
land will be used, she
added.
Approximately 40 local
residents attended the
meeting. The City provided
poster boards outlining the
property boundaries and
showing possible uses of
the land, such as building
recreational facilities or
keeping it as open space.
Attendees placed red
stickers next to items they
are against and green stickers
next to options they
favor. They were also encouraged
to write down
comments on a large sheet
of paper stretched over a
table.
“We want open space!”
said Nadine Cain, a board
member of Vista Pacifica
at Broad Beach, a 38-unit
condominium community
next to Trancas Field.
The intersection at PCH
near the land is already
dangerous, she added, and
it could get even more dangerous
if a large number of
people are visiting a park or
recreational facility.
“There’s a lot of wildlife
out there,” said Debbie
Vaillancourt, also a resident
of Vista Pacifica at Broad
Beach. “Can you imagine
taking concrete and wiping
out nature? Out here we’re
such a small community
and it’s not that convenient
for people to visit [for recreation].”
Parents of the late Johnny
Strange – a Malibu native
who died last year at the
age of 23 during a BASE
jumping excursion in the
Swiss Alps — recently offered
to make a $1 million
matching donation toward
construction of a skate park
in their son’s name at Trancas
Field.
“There are many people
Malibu’s Armenians come together
for annual picnic
in the room who don’t
like the idea,” Shamra
Tankersley-Strange said.
“But I’ve also met a lot of
people with kids who love
the idea, because they’re
currently having to go to
Venice to skate.”
The family’s intention is
to build a skate park that is
beautiful and sensitive to
the local environment, she
said.
“Malibu gave so much to
Johnny and this is one way
of showing our gratitude to
the community,” Tankersley-Strange
said. “I think
there are ways we can all
work together.”
Mark Johnson, who also
lives next to Trancas Field,
understands local residents
wanting to maintain the
rustic, rural character of the
area. But he says the community
needs more recreation
and outdoor facilities,
especially for youth.
“It would be nice to invite
people to sit and enjoy
this space,” said Johnson,
adding he doesn’t want a
large-scale development
on the property, but is not
opposed to some development.
“If we’re not careful,
this area will turn into an
older community.”
Carl Randall, chairman
of the Malibu Parks &
Recreation Commission,
fielded questions from residents
during the event on
Wednesday.
He heard a lot of different
opinions on the subject
throughout the evening,
and said he was happy to
see people engaged in the
process and willing to share
their ideas about different
options for Trancas Field.
“It’s great to get strong
opinions,” Randall said.
“This is democracy in action.
We’re just at the absolute
beginning of the
process. We’ll see what input
we get and continue to
adjust accordingly.”
As part of the larger Trancas
Field outreach plan, the
City sent out a community
questionnaire, hosted a
teen and youth community
workshop on Oct. 17, will
host another public meeting
at City Hall on Nov. 30, is
hosting stakeholder focus
groups next week, and has
posted information on social

among dolphins.
She reflected on the harmonious
nature of dolphins
and the Minoan, who once
inhabited what is now the
Greek island of Santorini.
Perhaps the ancients could
teach modern man a thing
or two, Casey intimated.
“I’m not a scientist,”
Casey said. “I’m always
trying to straddle the place
between mystery and the
science regarding whatever
I write about to make the
best stories I can. Science
cannot be the province of
academia only. We must be
allowed to share it; to seek
out its mystery. I don’t like
to tell people what to think.
Rather, I tell a story so that
they have an impression on
their heart, they capture the
imagery, and they have a
curiosity.”
And that’s a message that
Malibu welcomes.
“I love to come to Malibu
because it is an ocean
community,” Casey told
the Surfside. “The people
here care. There is a huge
amount of warmth.”
Casey would not say
what her next work is, except
to hint “it won’t be a
big departure from my earlier
works.”

SMMUSD names new superintendent
Submitted by SMMUSD
The Santa
Monica-Malibu
Unified
School District
Board of
Education approved
the ap-
Dr. Drati
pointment of
Ben Drati, Ed.D. as the new
superintendent at its Nov. 3
regular meeting.
His appointment is effective
Jan. 1, 2017.
Dr. Drati comes to SM-
MUSD from the Santa Barbara
Unified School District,
where he has served
as the assistant superintendent
of secondary education
since 2012. In this
assignment he is charged
with designing and implementing
key initiatives involving
the development
of a culturally proficient
school district through
professional development,
teacher collaboration, parent
engagement and providing
equity and access to
all students.
Prior to serving in this
position, Dr. Drati served
as the principal of Clovis
West High School from
2007-2012. He was the
deputy principal there from
2005-2007 and the learning
director from 2002-2005.
He served as assistant principal
at Riverdale High

High School in Fresno
in 1997.
His commitment to involving
all stakeholders in
addressing issues of disproportionality
and overseeing
the development of the Local
Control Accountability
Plan has resulted in great
success for his current district.
Dr. Drati also created
student programs that emphasized
the importance of
diversity within the school
culture and worked with
teachers to create a school
and classroom environment
where all students feel valued
and appreciated.
A board member from his
current district described
Dr. Drati as a person of
great integrity, as well as
a genuine and warm person.
He went on to say that
Dr. Drati accomplishes his
job with careful thought,
transparency and motivation.
Another high-ranking
district official commented
Dr. Drati’s strong skills in
creating positive working
relationships with businesses
and community organizations
to support and
improve the learning environment
of the district.
“I can’t wait to get started,”
Dr. Drati said following
the board appointment.
“My first task is to go out
and meet people at our
schools and in the community.
I am committed to
keeping the interest of children
as my highest priority.
I will work collaboratively
with the board, teachers,
classified staff and parents,
and commit to serving as a
worthy ambassador of SM-
MUSD to the world.”
Dr. Drati earned a bachelor
of science in biochemistry
from Fresno State
University, where he also
played football; a singlesubject
credential in chemistry
and master of art and
administrative credential
in education leadership
from National University;
and a doctorate in education
leadership from Fresno
State University. Earlier
this year he earned a certificate
from the American
Association of School
Administrators Urban Superintendents
Academy
at University of Southern
California.
Dr. Drati is happy to
return to the Los Angeles
area, having lived here
in his youth and graduating
from Los Angeles
High School in the mid-
Wilshire area. He came to
the U.S. at the age of 10
with his family from wartorn
Uganda, and places
an extremely high value
on the importance and
benefits of public education.
He plans to relocate
to the community along
with his wife and two sons
in high school. Dr. Drati
has a daughter who lives
and works in the area.
Dr. Drati replaces Sandra
Lyon who left the district in
July for the superintendent
position at Palm Springs
Unified School District. Dr.
Sylvia Rousseau and Chris
King have been the cointerim
superintendents since
July and will complete their
contracts on Dec. 31.

Santa Monica College
Priority enrollment offered to Malibu
residents
Santa Monica College is pleased to
announce priority enrollment at SMC
for Santa Monica and Malibu residents
and local graduates, effective the winter
semester, which commences Jan. 3,
2017. The program is the first phase of
a Santa Monica College Promise program,
with a planned launch date of
fall 2017, to help students reduce the
expenses related to their first year at
SMC.
To enroll in credit classes and qualify
for priority enrollment in winter
2017 — for which enrollment begins
in early December — students must
have applied and completed pre-enrollment
orientation, assessment and
educational planning by Nov. 22, 2016.
Current residents of Santa Monica and
Malibu are eligible; F-1 visa students
are not. In addition, graduating seniors
and alumni of Santa Monica High
School, Malibu High School, Olympic
High School, St. Monica Catholic
High School, Crossroads School, New
Roads School, Pacifica Christian High
School, and Lighthouse Academy —
regardless of home address — are also
eligible.
SMC and SMMUSD have a healthy
Young Collegians program born out of
a 2007 collaborative MoU, allowing an
increasing number of SMMUSD students
to get a head start on SMC classes
and accrue up to 14 college units.
Nine years ago, the program started
with 15 students; in the last academic
year, over 65 students participated. In
early 2015, the SMC Board of Trustees
also waived enrollment fees for high
school students, and those who qualify
now take classes at SMC for free.
Returning and continuing students
must be in good academic standing and
have fewer than 90 credit units at SMC.
The State of California also requires certain
populations (like veterans and foster
youth) to be granted priority enrollment.
The State does not permit priority enrollment
for students currently enrolled
in high school (enrollment for currently
enrolled high school students for winter
session begins in late Dec. 2016).

Don’t Panic, It’s Organic
So, you think CO2 is damaging?
Andy Lopez
Contributing Columnist
Invisible Gardener
The last 40 years or
so, I have been talking
about climate
change. Not in the usual
way but in an “it’s the end
of the world” way. What
do I mean by this?
In 1972, I started talking
on my radio show about
trees. I called the show
“It’s the Trees.” I still believe
that we are damaging
the earth, and one way
is by cutting down our
forests and leaving behind
a mess in its place.
We all know that trees
intake CO2 and exhale
O2. We all know the
damages CO2 does to our
planet — if not controlled
— but are we aware of
methane?
Methane traps 40 times
more heat than carbon dioxide,
and 32 times more
in aerosol usage. Global
methane levels have been
rising over the years for
many reasons, most of it
is human-made and some
natural.
Way back in time, in
the earth’s early history,
both carbon dioxide and
methane were present in
the atmosphere. Carbon
dioxide came from various
sources, more so from
volcanoes and the current
animals, while methane
was being produced by the
different types of ancient
microbes. These bacteria
would add to methane
concentrations in the
atmosphere through their
metabolism, and their by
products were, amongst
other things, the conversion
of hydrogen and carbon
dioxide into methane
and water.
When plants came
along, oxygen started
to become a part of the
atmosphere through
photosynthesis. Animals
are naturally creating
methane. If you count
humans, then methane is
being produced by people
through many of their
practices, especially from
animal farming.
Significant amounts
of the earth’s surface
have been changed by the
removal of forests, and
replaced with millions
of animals from cattle to
chickens to pigs to whatever,
all of which produce
methane.
So over the past 100
years or so, we have
changed the underlying
makeup of the earth’s surface
that was being used
to control and regulate
CO2 and methane (CH4).
Now, we not only have
fewer trees — 505 of
the world’s forests have
disappeared in the last
100 years — which take
in CO2, but we also have
less top soil (over 50 percent
of the earth’s topsoil
has also gone in the last
100 years).
Topsoil holds CO2, but
if you disturb it by plowing,
it releases the CO2.
We have also damaged
the oceans, which hold
massive amounts of CO2,
and that is now being diminished
because not only
are we killing off every
living thing in it but we
are also polluting it to the
point that the ocean is not
able to absorb CO2 and
is, in fact, releasing more
CO2 into the atmosphere.
Additionally, the melting
of the world glaciers
speeds up this process in
many ways. Fresh water
does not hold as much
CO2 and other gasses
as does salt water. Fresh
water does not circulate as
does salt water.
Water circulation is
important because that
produces the Gulf stream,
which in turn controls
climate change (weather).
Stop the Gulf stream from
circulating, and we have
extreme weather instability.
That means warmer
summers and colder winters.
Eventually, the heat
will last longer and longer
while producing more and
more water in the atmosphere.
That water must go
somewhere, so it gets frozen
in the poles, and that
will get colder and colder.
Cold spells (ice ages)
always follow heat spells
(global warming).
The last global warming
we had lasted 500 years
and was called the Medieval
Warm Period, which
was followed by another
500 years of an ice age,
called The Little Ice Age,
between about 1300 and
1800, especially in Europe

and North America. The
Medieval Warm Period,
Medieval Climate
Optimum, or Medieval
Climatic Anomaly lasted
from about 950 to 1250.
During both of these
time periods, humans did
not yet have the ability to
destroy millions if not billions
of forests, plus start
up millions if not billions
of cattle for our consumption.
These periods came
about through the cutting
down of Europe’s forests
as well as forests in other
parts of the world. This
was also compounded
through inventions that
basically allowed humans
to destroy at a rapid pace.
This damage was limited
to the small amount
of CO2 that was increased
during that period and
does not take into account
any methane produced,
which was slowly increased
over the years
through cattle, bad agricultural
practices (tilling
the earth loses topsoil), as
well as destroying forests
to replace with cattle or
palm oil (they don’t just
cut down a wild forest
but actually set it on fire,
which, in turn, produces
more CO2).
Now, here is the thing.
Yes, we can fix this if we
had the time.
The real problem is
methane.
With the melting permafrost,
more and more
methane is being released
into the atmosphere.
Every year sees at least
a two-fold increase in
CH4 — and some scientists
see this as a bigger
problem than CO2 in that
if this increases as it has in
the past few years, we and
all living things will only
have less than 20 or 30
years before we all die.
And again here is what
I am trying to say, here is
a new problem emerging:
methane sinks.
What is a methane sink,
you ask?
Recently, scientists have
discovered newly formed
sinks on the ocean floor,
off the coast of Washington,
Oregon and California
that are riddled with deep
sea vents that have started
releasing more methane
into our atmosphere.
It was bad enough that
the permafrost was melting
and releasing CH4, but
now we have this. More
and more methane into the
atmosphere would speed
up this whole process and
ensure that it will last
longer than if we had just
CO2.
Remember, we have
never had this methane
problem before during
all the time humans have
been on the earth. Nothing
alive can breathe methane.
While some microbes
can convert methane into
oxygen, they are very limited
and produce oxygen
for their own use, but we
might be able to discover
how they do that, and use
them in this case.
But again — we do not
have the time.
So if you think CO2 is
bad, here come CH4 and
our time is running out.

From the Editor
A tough and adorable competition
Lauren Coughlin
Editor
Malibu had some
pretty adorable
trick-or-treaters
last week, and we were
lucky enough to get a
handful of them to enter
our Halloween Costume
Contest.
While there could only
be two winners (results on
Page 5), the dedication of
other Malibu youngsters
was hard to overlook.
In addition to our 15 and
younger winner, 3-yearold
Leo Semradek, we
received an entry from
dedicated duo Graham and
Emma McNeal (pictured),
who definitely deserve an
honorable mention.
The young McNeals
celebrated Halloween and
the National Park Service
alike by dressing as a park
ranger (Graham) and black
bear (Emma). But they
didn’t stop there.
Their mom, Stacy, told
the Surfside in an email
that her children started
their journey at the library,
where they discovered
books on bears, hiking,
camping and more. Then,
the family headed to Yosemite
to put their knowledge
to work.
“Graham was sworn in
as a Jr. Park Ranger, and
Emma joined the Wee Wild
Ones program to learn all
about the black bears at
Yosemite,” Stacy explained.
“She even learned
to call, ‘Hey bear!’ and
practiced properly storing
our food in bear boxes
while we camped.”
I can’t imagine a better
way to get into character,
and I bet it’s an experience
the young McNeals will
never forget.
For me, my young Halloweens
were always spent
watching in amazement as
my mom crafted a beautiful,
homemade costume
— and that’s something
that will always stay with
me. While I may not have
been the only Belle of
“Beauty and the Beast” in
my class, I certainly was
the only one whose gown
was almost as exquisite as
the real thing. It was something
my mom took pride
in, and I did, too.
Halloween is about
much more than collecting
candy and having an excuse
to dress up. After all,
it can be a really fun and
exciting learning experience.
And, in other cases, like
that of our adult winners
Dawn Hope Stevens and
Hope Stevens, Halloween
is all about tradition. As
someone who believes in
dressing up no matter how
old you are, I was thrilled
to see a 94-year-old enter
our contest.
Congratulations to our
contest winners, and thank
you to our other entrants!

Malibu wine celebration shines light on local wineries
Jessica Lucas
Freelance Reporter
The Malibu Coast
Vinters Grape Growers Alliance
hosted the second
annual Malibu Coast Wine
Celebration at Saddlerock
Ranch on Saturday, Nov. 5.
Twenty-five local vineyards
attended the celebration,
which was founded
last year to increase awareness
and appreciation for
local wineries in the Malibu
American Viticulture Area.
The Malibu Coast
Vinters Grape Growers Alliance
awarded the Pioneer
Award to Tim Skogstrom,
of the Cornell Winery and
Tasting Room in Malibu.
“The biggest thing for
me is that this event supports
local products,” said
Skogstrom as he accepted
the Pioneer Award. “We
support local products, we
support local artists and we
support local craftsmen.”
The guests and winemakers
alike were impressed by
how many of the wineries
represented were small,
family-owned wineries.
“This has become a community
of winemakers and
they are very grounded as a
group of people,” said Jeff
Canter, a member of Cellar
Masters who volunteered at
the event. “They are a very
good group of people to
promote this area.
“They are very unique in
the world. There’s no other
terroir, or growing community,
like this. So it really
motivates us to join in and
participate.”
Guests were impressed
with the quality of the wine.
“After drinking the Malibu
wines for a while, we
would go back to Napa
and say: ‘Wow, the Malibu
wines really are good,’”
said Bob Tobias, a growing
consultant and recipient of
the 2015 Pioneer Award.
“The beauty of it is that
now they’re getting some
recognition for their wines,
which is really fun,” Tobias
added.
Winemakers hope the
event will continue to grow.
“I hope everyone gets to
come to this event; you get
to taste nearly all the wine
that’s grown in the Santa
Monica Mountains,” said
David Gomez, of La Vina
Gomez de Malibu.
“Mostly all of them are
family businesses. There
isn’t any industrial anything
going on up here, it’s
all small vineyards. There’s
a great variety of wines
grown in this area and
they’re all pretty good.”
Participating wineries
were: AJA Vineyards,
Aldabella Winery, Bodegas
Gomez de Malibu, Calabasas

Music is in the air
Talents on display
at Malibu Friends
of Music’s Harvest
Music Festival
Barbara Burke
Freelance Reporter
Music filled the air and
the crowd’s mood was light
and upbeat as the Malibu
Friends of Music’s Harvest
Music Festival, held at the
Montgomery Arts House
for Music and Architecture,
provided a lovely “Bringing
in the Harvest Program”
on Oct. 29.
The Harvest Musical
Festival featured artists
Christina Borgioli, soprano;
Diana Tash, mezzo
soprano; Paula Hochhalter,
cellist; Wendy Prober, pianist;
Maria Newman, artistic
director, violinist and
composer; and Scott Hosfeld,
who is the executive
director and conductor of
the Malibu Coast Chamber
Orchestra, on viola.
The program began with
a performance of “Fantasy
on Avinu Malkeinu,” for
viola and piano, by Max
Janowski, performed by
Hosfeld playing viola, and
Prober on piano.
The pleased crowd settled
in for a lovely evening
of fine company and excellent
renditions.
“This lovely song is
about asking God to help
heal wounds. The piece
starts in Hebrew and then
self translates into English,”
Newman said. “Diana
Tash has the most glorious,
golden-toned velvety
mezzo soprano voice that
you’d ever hear.”
She shared with the
crowd as she introduced,
Tash, whom, accompanied
by Prober on piano, played
Aminadav Aloni’s “Heal
Me, O Lord.”
Newman’s violin playing,
accompanied by Hosfeld
on viola, Paula Hochhalter
on cello, and Prober
on piano, finished out the
first part of the concert with
a heart-moving, flawless
performance of “Quartet”
in a minor, Op. 67, (1. Lento,
II. Vivo, and III. Andante-Allegretto).
When they finished, the
crowd clapped heartily,
thoroughly enjoying the
lovely concert.
Intermission served as an
opportunity for them to enjoy
good, intellectual colloquy,
and the coziness of a
Malibu autumn, experiences
to savor and share as the
holiday season approaches.
Next came a performance
of Maurice Ravel’s “Après
un rêve” from Three Melodies,
performed by Hochhalter
on cello and Prober
on piano.
The delightful experience
ended when the musicians
performed hostess Maria
Newman’s “Nissu’in” (Bedeken
– Dodi Li; II. Mishpocha;
III. Sheve B’rachot;
IV. Finale: Make Haste, My
Beloved), featuring Christina
Borgioli, soprano, Diano
Tash, mezzo soprano, Wendy
Prober, playing piano,
Newman playing violin,
and Hosfeld and Hochhalter
on cello.
The crowd lingered, enjoying
the musical air and
wonderful, intriguing intellectual
company, and lovely
snacks.
Going out into the night
air could wait.
They stood, admiring
the stunning architecture
of MAHMA, a somewhat
hidden gem in Malibu, a
treasure for those who enjoy
lovely music and the
intellectual parlay that is so
enjoyable when one learns
about the content and history
of a musical score.
MAHMA is stunning.
When one enters, they are
amazed at the great expanse
of the circular room
and the enormous height of
the ceiling with its lovely
wood beams.
The stone fireplace that
is at the center of the room
invites one to sit awhile, to
enjoy music, conversation
and relaxing. The room has
that wonderful quality that
causes one to stop, to pause
and take it all in. One wants
to examine every little detail,
and to admire the amazing
artistic qualities the
home’s fine, unique architecture
offers in the world.
Nestled in the mountains,
the home, owned by Newman
and Hosfeld, was designed
by Malibuite Eric
Lloyd Wright, grandson
of the renowned architect,
Frank Lloyd Wright.
Born in 1929, Eric Wright
worked as an apprentice
for his grandfather at the
Taliesin Fellowship, and
then later joined his father,
Lloyd Wright, at his architectural
practice in Los Angeles.
He formed his own
architectural practice upon
his father’s passing.
Malibu Surfside News had
the opportunity to visit with
Wright and asked him about
his design of MAHMA.
“The house is specially
designed for musicians,”
Wright said. “I had to very
carefully watch acoustics.
I used wood because it can
assist in carrying music.
The beams are made of vertical
grain Douglas fir.”
Wright noted he had a
background in building
such structures because his
Cellist Paula Hochhalter was among the featured musicians who performed at the
Malibu Friends of Music’s Harvest Music Festival, held Oct. 29-30 at the Montgomery
Arts House for Music and Architecture. Barbara Burke/22nd Century Media
brother played the viola
and liked string quartets.
“MAHMA is designed on
a 30-degree by 60-degree
unit system. The whole floor
plan is on that unit system,”
Wright said. “The walls are
angled at 40 degrees and 60
degrees, which is very important
in nature.”
These days, Wright focuses
his efforts on restoring
the architectural wonders
that his grandfather
built, such as Falling Waters
in Wisconsin.
He and his wife, Mary,
also run a nonprofit organization
that focuses on
carrying on the vision of
Frank Lloyd Wright and his
pioneering architecture that
changed the industry, and, in
doing so, changed much of
society’s edifices, gathering
places, and living quarters.
“We have the nonprofit
and do that work because
what is most important
is for the inner person to
be able to appreciate my
grandfather’s work which
integrated nature, and his
use of construction so that
is constituted sustainable
architecture,” Wright said.
“I think that we have a
long way to go as a society
to appreciate the role of
the architect as an artist,”
Wright said. “I am peeved
when schools drop music
and art from the curriculum,
thinking they are superfluous.
Instead, I think that
children should get a basic
understanding that nature,
art, architecture and music
are integral and essential to
education and a fine society.”
Wright’s lovely contribution
to Malibu, the Malibu
Friends of Music’s Montgomery
Arts House for
Music and Architecture, is
much appreciated by the
community, all of whom
are welcome to join in on
the performances the facility
sponsors.
“Not Just Concerts, Experiences!”
is the theme for
MAHMA — but you’ll just
have to see for yourself.

Objects with Purpose comes to Malibu
New Malibu Village
shop features nontoxic
candles, more
Barbara Burke
Freelance Reporter
“It’s where Paris flea
markets meet Malibu’s
beaches,” said Ianthe Mauro,
owner of Objects with
Purpose, beckoning curious
shoppers inside her new
Malibu store which features
unique, wearable candles
that are made on location.
The store opened at 3822
Cross Creek Road #3854 B
in Malibu Village last month.
Mauro explains that “once
upon a time,” her kindergarten
teacher lit a candle before
lunch, taking a moment
to give gratitude. Lighting
a candle became Mauro’s
way of giving thanks, focusing
on an intention, creating
warm, fragrant ambiance
and calming down at the
end of a long day.
However, Mauro discovered
many candles were
toxic.
Further, after she was diagnosed
with Graves’ disease,
she had to exercise
caution with regard to products
that she uses.
Undaunted, Mauro combined
her entrepreneur spirit
with innovation.
It was then that Mauro
discovered organic coconut
butter wax.
“I created Objects with
Purpose candles to deliver
non-toxic, sophisticated,
conscientious candles to
everyone,” Mauro said.
“Typical candles have petro
chemicals in them which
are bad for us. Everything
is handmade locally with
natural ingredients in this
store.”
Mauro’s candles come in
many scents — from floral,
to rose and lychee, sandalwood,
spiced saffron, Arabian
rose candles, and an
intriguing scent called “dirt
rich,” which evokes scents
of wood and vine.
There are practical, functional
candles, travel candles,
and candles that, when
unlit, allow one to use the

The Dish
Malibu Farm Restaurant serves tacos with a side of scenery

Malibu Farm
Restaurant
23000 Pacific Coast
Highway, Malibu
There’s nothing quite
like a lazy lunch on the
Malibu Pier at Malibu
Farm Restaurant.
The crystal blue Pacific’s
gently rolling waves
meet one’s tired gaze and
puts the mind at ease.
“Having lunch on the
pier at Malibu Farm is
the perfect break during a
work day to give me ambition
to return to the desk so
I can be the best version of
me,” said Laura Cammarota,
of Malibu.
Try the made-to-order
fresh taco trio ($24), Malibu
Farm’s newest creation.
This scrumptious, huge
dish has three beautifully
presented soft shell tacos.
The chicken taco features
huge chunks of fresh,
meaty chicken marinated
in lemon juice, cilantro and
whole grain Dijon mustard,
salt, and olive oil. The
chicken is combined with
black beans, fresh corn and
Brussel sprouts, which add
a surprising, juicy taste.
The taco is topped with a
green sauce made of avocado
and lemons. The taco’s
various unique ingredients
are topped off with
Pepper Jack cheese, and
for a twist, by pea shoots
which add a lovely sweet,
crunchy flavor and make
the taco’s taste end with
a sweet, snap pea-infused
finish.

pers. The unique, fresh ingredients
are drenched in
a habanero sauce, which
merges with the other ingredients
to create bite
after bite of fresh, juicy,
heavenly zest.
The beef taco is made
with seared beef and red
pepper, then blended with
cabbage, tomatillos, and
topped with a zesty tomatillo
sauce.
Customers have the option
to have three of the
same taco if they prefer
a sampling all three versions.
If they would like,
they may order three of the
vegetarian tacos ($22).
Other dishes to try include
the half chicken,
which is marinated in lemon
juice, Dijon mustard,
salt and olive oil. This
creation is served with an
olive dressing on a bed of
moist, indulgent fennel and
arugula alongside either
snap peas (when in season)
or fresh green beans. The
dish ($29) includes two
side dishes: fresh, moist
quinoa made with vinegar,
agave, beet juice, and immersed
in a red wine vinaigrette;
and creamed, buttery
herbed potatoes with

too heavy, you could also

Ride of the Week
’Tis the season of
holiday hot rodding
Fireball Tim Lawrence
Contributing Columnist
Malibu resident
I
love the holidays for
many reasons. And
as much as I love the
sights, smells and tastes,
it’s the cheer that gets
me going the most. Sure,
there’s stresses and bits of
anxiety. What to get for
Aunty Bertha, what to buy
for little Bartholomew.
(Get him a hot rod,
simple). But as I said, it’s
the cheer that I enjoy the
most. So let’s delve ...
Throughout the year,
we’re faced with all kinds
of challenges. From the
simplest to the most complex.
Not designed for us
to struggle or suffer, but
to teach us and evolve.
And as the holidays roll
around, we’re forced to
have to think beyond
ourselves and find ways to
give to others. Honestly,
something we’d benefit
from doing all year long,
but as we enter into the
awesomeness that we call
the holiday season, let us
ponder this thing we call
cheer and relate it back
to cool cars. Why? Well
... this is RIDE OF THE
Does holiday cheer have something in common with hot
rods? Fireball Tim Lawrence thinks so. Photo Submitted
WEEK, duh.
The real meaning
behind cheer is how we
THINK. Cheerful thoughts
emanate a positive energy.
You’re saying that you
can, you will, you must.
And with that energy that
goes out, what returns is
tenfold.
Now, you’ve seen it.
Go into Ralphs, give a
checker a grin and she
smiles back and says
“good morning.” But go in
and tell her that she looks
great in her cheery Christmas
hat and she instantly
beams cheer, strikes up a
conversation ... and then
gives you a discount on
the 18 yogurts you just
bought. See ... tenfold.
Seriously, you want a
great holiday season? You
want to be stress free for
Thanksgiving? You want
to see cool cars on every
corner? Then commit with
me to make a decision.
Decide that every thought
you’re going to think
heading into November
and December is going to
be cheery, looking for fun
and most of all ... full of
the love of the spirit in all
of us. Drive your car with
a smile on. Give compliments
... buy gifts and be
grateful that you can, even
if they’re small.
And come visit our
car show at Gladstones
on Nov. 20 at 7 a.m.
Bring the cheer, bring the
outlook that this country
needs so much right now.
Put your game face on and
become a holiday hot rod.
And if you do it right ...
be warned. You may be
building a habit that by
January, you won’t want
to stop. Then you’ll win
the lotto, buy an island,
drive a Tesla Speedboat
and live the dream. Wait
... we’re in Malibu! Aren’t
we already doing that?

AGING = PAIN
For many, arthritis and
spinal disc degeneration
are the most common
source of pain, along with
hips, knees, shoulders and
the neck. In designing
the Jacuzzi Hydrotherapy
Shower, we worked with
expert physicians to
maximize its pain relieving

pressure to provide gentle
yet effective hydrotherapy.
JACUZZI ® SHOWER = RELIEF
• Sciatica
• Aches and
Pains
• Inflammation
As we age, the occasional aches and
pains of everyday life become less
and less occasional. Most of us are
bothered by sore muscles, creaky joints
and general fatigue as we go through
the day and it’s made worse by
everything from exertion and stress to
arthritis and a number of other ailments.
Sure, there are pills and creams that
claim to provide comfort, but there
is only one 100% natural way to feel
better… hydrotherapy. Now, the world
leader in hydrotherapy has invented the
only shower that features Jacuzzi ® Jets.
It’s called the Jacuzzi ® Hydrotherapy
Shower, and it can truly change your life.
For over 50 years, the Jacuzzi ® Design
Engineers have
worked to bring the
powerful benefits of
soothing hydrotherapy
into millions of homes.
Now, they’ve created
a system that can fit in
the space of your existing

a lifetime of enjoyment, comfort and

Sharks’ 2-9 season ends with 32-13 loss
Ryan Flynn
Freelance Reporter
When the final whistle
blew Friday, Nov. 4, and
there were no more assignments
to execute or plays
to make, the Malibu Sharks
players took a knee in front
of their coach and removed
their helmets. The season
was over, and they were no
longer linebackers, running
backs or wide receivers;
they were just young men.
There was a melancholy
feel to it, especially for the
seniors, who would never
again don cleats or pads or
a helmet on a high school
field. The school year is far
from over, but Friday night
the Shark seniors graduated
from the unique fraternity
that is high school football.
Tears flowed after a losing
effort to end a trying 2-9
season. One by one, the seniors
addressed their teammates,
praising and thanking
them. The team had just
lost 32-13 to visiting Carpinteria,
but to a man, the
Sharks seemed determined
to hold their heads high.
“Now it’s time for you,
juniors,” senior lineman Logan
Moore said to his teammates.
“Step up for us. Step
up for your team. Learn the
lessons here and carry them
out into your own life and
you’ll never leave the field.”
Running back Keaton
Brewster, also a senior,
talked about how he hadn’t
caught a pass since the first
game of the season, “until
about 15 minutes ago.”
His coach, Terry Shorten,
said that Brewster followed
the adage that no matter
how many times you fail,
you have to go out and get
the next one.
“Tonight you got the next
one,” Shorten said.
Quarterback Braxton
Pierce, who transferred to
Malibu last year, won the
job as the team’s lone signal
caller in week three and
never gave it back. He too
is a graduating senior and
made a point to thank his
linemen for protecting him
all year.

Sharks cap 12-0 season
Nathan, Orian and
Rader CIF-bound
Submitted by Malibu High
School
The Sharks finished the
season 12-0 taking the
league title without losing
a match.
The Sharks returned
players Joey Marshall,
Delaney Faherty, Harley
Rader and Jennifer Orian.
The team received a surge
of new talent this season.
Chloe Ossorio and Sydney
Leib, both mostly junior
varsity players last season,
trained intensively in the
off-season and both became
varsity starters in every
match.
Leib played No. 3 singles
and Ossorio teamed
up with freshman Whitney
Clarfield with an 87 percent
winning percentage in doubles
matches and earned
their spot to compete in
the CIF individuals tournament.
An unexpected and welcome
addition, Nitzan
Asaf, who recently moved
to Malibu from Israel, became
the No. 2 singles
player, winning 88 percent
of her league matches.
The Sharks also had the
fortune of gaining freshman
singles player, Zoe Nathan,
who earned her spot as the
No. 1 player for the team.
Nathan dominated the
league with a record of
36-0 in league play. She
qualified as the No. 1 seat
in the league for CIF individuals
and won the league
title in singles.
The team’s No. 1 doubles
team, Rader and Orian,
finished the season with
a 31-3 record, also seated
No. 1 in the league for CIF
Individuals and won the
league title in doubles.
Coach Todd Montgomery
expects to continued
domination of the Frontier
League next year.
The Sharks will continue
on in the Individual Southern
Section CIF on Nov. 21
in Carpenteria with singles
league champion Nathan
and doubles league champions
Orian and Rader.

Malibu Half Marathon/5K draws a crowd
Eric Billingsley
Freelance Reporter
With a chill in the morning
air, and the sun starting
to peek around the surrounding
mountains, the
weather on Sunday, Nov.
6, was pure Malibu bliss
for the scenic course that
more than 1,600 runners
were about to embark on.
The runners — hailing
from near and far —
gathered on Pacific Coast
Highway, just north of
Point Mugu beach for the
eighth annual Malibu Half
Marathon & 5K.
“This is our first half
marathon,” said Emily
Emshoff, 25, from Venice,
Calif., who was running
with Drew Hecht, also 25
and from Venice. “We’ve
been looking for a good
intro half marathon and
chose this one.”
“You can’t beat it,”
Hecht said. “It’s beautiful!”
Both of their parents
even flew in from Atlanta
to cheer them on and soak
in a little Southern California
sun.
The course started just
north of the iconic Mugu
Rock and winded down
PCH along the ocean toward
Malibu. The half
marathon turned around
just before Neptune’s Net
restaurant and County
Line beach.
This year the event donated
$5,000 to the Boys
& Girls Club of Malibu.
The Malibu High School
girl’s varsity basketball
team also used it as an opportunity
to raise money
for equipment and travel.
“I’m very passionate
about supporting the
community,” said Erica
MacVittie, race director.
“We may be organizing the
event, but it belongs to the
community.”
The number of participants
was nearly double
compared to last year, she
added.
Businesses participating
in the event included
Saje Wellness, lululemon,
LÄRABAR, TheBU Kombucha,
Klean LA meal delivery
and Rusnak BMW.
Warren Mullisen, 72, has
been running since 1970
and has run every Los Angeles
Marathon since the
event began. He wasn’t out
to set a personal best record
on Sunday; rather, he
was there to appreciate the
scenery and do something
he loves.
“I consider this a way
of life, not exercise,” said
Mullisen, adding he would
be happy to complete the
half marathon in under two
hours. “It’s beautiful here
with the ocean. This is why
we’re in California.”
At approximately 7:15
a.m., the starting gun
sounded for the half marathon.
In a thick cloud of
dust, with sun filtering
through, the runners headed
south on PCH. At close
to 7:30 a.m., the 5K group
hit the course.
Coming in at 19 minutes
and 2 seconds, Kamilah
Spears, 24, of Thousand
Oaks, was the first woman
in the 5K to cross the finish
line.
She ran in college at the
University of California,
San Diego and is an assistant
cross country running
coach at Thousand Oaks
High School.
“The hill was tough, but
it was worth it because
then you come back down
the hill,” said Spears about
the course.
Amelia Goudzwaard,
15, ran the 5K with members
of the Malibu High
School girl’s varsity basketball
team.
She completed the race in
28 minutes and 19 seconds.
Goudzwaard and her teammates
used the event to raise
$1,000 to pay for equipment
and an upcoming out-oftown
tournament.
“This was my first time
running a 5K and I’ve never
run 3.1 miles straight
through before,” she said,
winded but exhilarated. “It
was such a great experience,
especially running
with my teammates.”
After most of the 5K
runners crossed the finish
line, anticipation started
building for the first finisher
of the half marathon.
His name: Ismael Samano,
29, from Panorama City.
His time: 1 hour, 9 minutes
and 26 seconds.
He’s an avid runner who
has worked with a running
coach for the past
nine years. He does a variety
of half marathons and
full marathons throughout
the year, including local
events such as the Los Angeles
Marathon and Rock
‘n’ Roll Los Angeles Half
Marathon.
“The run was great,” Samano
said. “I love the view
and the course.”
Cara Talty, 25 and from
Los Angeles, was the first
woman to finish the half
marathon. Her time: 1
hour, 26 minutes and 28
seconds.
She ran track and cross
country while attending
Cara Talty (812) finishes the Malibu Half Marathon with a time of 1 hour, 26 minutes and
28 seconds. Photos by Suzy Demeter/22nd Century Media
Clemson University in
South Carolina, has run the
New York marathon and
qualified to run the Boston
Marathon.
“My favorite part of the
race was getting a ‘runner’s
high’ at about the
halfway point, but then
around miles eight and
nine I started to die a bit,”
Talty said. “But then I got
a surge, picked up again
and finished.”
Half marathon runners trot up the coast Sunday, Nov. 6,
in Malibu.

Logan Moore, 17, is a
senior for the Malibu
High School football team.
He played both offensive
guard and defensive tackle
for the Sharks this year.
What first made you
get into football?
My parents initially encouraged
me to play football.
Beforehand I didn’t
really have any grasp on
the sport.
What is your favorite
thing about the game?
My favorite thing about
the sport is the brotherhood
and the people you
get to be with. When you
play this sport you play not
only to compete and win,
but to protect the guy next
to you and it is a huge duty
and honor to play alongside
the young men I’ve played
with.
What type of mentality
does it take to be a
lineman?
It takes a good amount
of courage to be a lineman.
You’re going up against
the biggest guys on the
other team in head-to-head
combat so it can be a little
daunting. But, I think the
most important mentality a
lineman should have is selflessness.
Every play you
put your body on the line
to protect the quarterback.
It’s a big responsibility and
that’s why I love it.
Do you have a favorite
athlete?
J.J. Watt is one of my favorite
athletes. I just love
his intensity and his character.
What is a better
feeling: getting a
big stop, getting a
sack or blocking for a
touchdown?
It’s hard to say. They’re
all pretty satisfying.
Do you have any
pre-game rituals or
superstitions?
I don’t have any true rituals
but before the game I always
listen to Chance The
Rapper just to get my mind
right for the game.
What would you say
you improved on most
over the years playing
football?
I’ve definitely improved
the most this year. I’m a
lot stronger than I used to
be and I’ve put in a good
amount of work in practice.
This year has definitely
been one of my better years
despite the outcome.
What are your plans
for college?
Going to the [U.S.] Naval
Academy and playing
football there would be my
dream goal, but I have a
lot of backup plans if that
doesn’t work out.
What are your hobbies
Suzy Demeter/22nd Century
Media
outside of football?
Acting is actually one
thing I like to do when I get
the opportunity to do it. A
lot of my friends are in film
production so when an opportunity
opens up, I take
it. During the offseason, I
swim, which is really great
on my body since it’s a shift
from full contact, full gravity
sport to a no contact, no
gravity sport.
What advice do you
have for younger
players on the team?
I honestly don’t have
much. This upcoming
group of kids, especially
the seniors have shown they
have a lot of heart. They’ve
put in a lot of work during
the season and have shown
the dedication that Sharks
football needs. The biggest
tip I have for them is to put
in the work during the offseason.
Get involved athletically,
whether it’s track,
swimming or working out
on your own. That, and get
more kids on the roster. The
team lost a lot of seniors so
numbers are going to be a
major factor next season.

team (12-4-3 overall, 7-1-
1 WCC) won the third West
Coast Conference Championship
in program history on Saturday,
Nov. 5, beating Pacific
1-0 on the road.
The team will make its ninth
appearance in the NCAA Tournament.
It is also the ninth time
in 19 years that Pepperdine
head coach Tim Ward — who
now has 219 career victories
with the Waves — has led the
Waves to at least 12 wins in a
season. Ward has been at the
helm for each of Pepperdine’s
nine postseason appearances.
Bri Visalli scored the dramatic
game-winner in the 83rd
minute for Pepperdine, knocking
home a rebound for the
only score of the game. Hailey
Stenberg put a long shot off the
crossbar and the rebound found
its way to Visalli, who made it
her fifth goal of the year.
The goal came minutes after
the Waves had a penalty
kick blocked by Pacific keeper
Leah Perry. Pepperdine outshot
Pacific 17-9 in the game and
forced Perry into nine saves.
Hannah Seabert also made
two first-half saves, the first of
which made her the Pepperdine
all-time leader in that category
with 320 for her career.
Seabert, who finished with
five saves, made a big stop in
the 73rd minute when things
were still scoreless.
Men’s water polo falls at home
The men’s water polo team
(12-11) dropped its final home
game of the season, falling to
No. 3 California 12-7 on Sunday,
Nov. 6.
Earlier in the week, on Friday,
Nov. 4, the Waves defeated
UC Irvine 8-7. In that game,
Mark Urban got a nice pass
from Marko Asic to score the
game-winning goal. George
Mooney also got a steal on UC
Irvine’s final possession.
Women’s volleyball falls to
Gonzaga
Pepperdine went head-tohead
with Gonzaga in the Martin
Centre Saturday, Nov. 5,
falling in a five-setter bout after
18-25, 25-23, 25-20, 18-25 and
12-15 final set scores.
The Waves (10-16, 4-10
WCC) posted a .260 hitting
percentage and had three
players in double-figure kills,
including freshman Hannah
Frohling, who posted a careerbest
22 kills. She is the first
Wave to hit over 20 kills in a
single match this season. Pepperdine
also produced 8.0 team
blocks, four aces, 68 digs and
66 total kills in the effort.
Frohling amassed a .296
hitting percentage during her
effort after tabbing only six errors
along with her 22 kills on
54 total swings.
Sophomores Heidi Dyer and
Tarah Wylie also hit for double-figure
kills for Pepperdine.
Dyer posted her sixth career
triple-double with 14 kills on
a .393 attack output, 25 assists
and 18 digs. She ranks third in
the nation and first in the conference
in triple-doubles after
the weekend.
Wylie tabbed 12 kills on a
season-high .571 success rate,
while adding an ace.
Sophomore Jenna Tunnell
led the team with 28 assists
and picked up eight kills, nine
digs and two blocks including
a solo.
Freshman Jasmine Gross led
the squad with seven blocks,
including one solo rejection.
She currently ranks third in the
Pepperdine record books for
blocks in a single-season with
130 after the weekend.
Senior Gaby Palmeri tallied
eight kills and freshman Hana
Lishman amassed 10 digs and
seven assists. Freshman Jaiden
Farr picked up 14 digs and led
the team with two aces.
Earlier in the week, on
Thursday, Nov. 3, the team was
downed by Portland in four
sets in the Chiles Center for the
Waves 13th West Coast Conference
match. The Waves has
104 digs, which ranks second
all-time in the Pepperdine record
books for most team digs
in a single four-set match in the
rally scoring era. The record is
109 which was tabbed at Hawaii
on Sept. 25, 2004.
Dyer posted a career-best 24
digs with 21 assists, while adding
seven kills and three blocks.
Tunnell was good for 22 assists
and 15 digs, while adding nine
kills and two blocks all night.
Freshman Hana Lishman
posted a career-best 23 digs,
while adding a career-best
eight assists for the Waves.
Frohling led the Waves with
a tied career-high 16 kills on 50
swings.
Sophomore tennis player falls
in semifinals
Sophomore Dzina Milovanovic
fell in a three-set semifinal
battle at the Jack Kramer
Club Collegiate Invitational
Saturday, Nov. 5.
To open the day, No.
123-ranked Milovanovic beat
UC Irvine’s Constance Branstine
with a 6-1, 6-0 final mark
to earn a spot in the tournament’s
semifinals against
UCLA’s Terri Fleming.
The day prior, Milovanovic
won over UC Santa Barbara’s
Paulina Dubavets with a 7-6,
6-1 final mark.
That same day, at the USTA
Billie Jean King National Tennis
Center in Flushing, New
York, for the USTA/ITA National
Indoor Intercollegiate
Championships, five Waves
— senior Christine Maddox,
junior Mayar Sherif Ahmed,
sophomore Luisa Stefani,
freshman Ashley Lahey and
senior Apichaya Runglerdkriangkrai
— were still competing
in either singles or doubles
competitions.
Player of the week honors go
to volleyball player Gross
After setting the all-time
Pepperdine record for most
blocks in a single match
through both the rally scoring
and sideout scoring eras, freshman
volleyball player Jasmine
Gross earned her first career
WCC Player of the Week nod.
Gross tabbed 15 blocks and
15 kills in a double-double performance
to propel the team to
a five-set comeback win over
Pacific at home. The middle
blocker broke the all-time Pepperdine
record for most blocks
in a single match, which in
the rally scoring era stood
since Oct. 17, 2003 when current
volunteer assistant coach
Lyndsey Weisenberg (Haché)
posted 13 against Gonzaga on
the road. The all-time record
including the sideout scoring
era has stood since 1996 and
1991, when Carrie Romer did
it against Colorado State at
home and Lesli Asplund did it
against Santa Clara at home,
respectively.
Gross performed highly
in two recent home matches,
helping the team to a straightset
sweep over Saint Mary’s
Oct. 27 after producing eight
kills on a .500 hitting percentage
(8-1-14) and tabbing nine
block assists and an ace. She
also stunned in an Oct. 29 win
over Pacific, collecting her first
double-double with 15 kills
and 15 digs.

From Page 34
“I came here last year and I think it was
one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in
my life,” Pierce said.
Maverick Baglietto, who said he’s
known among teammates as “the broken
man” because he’s played through so
many injuries, told his teammates to look
at him and be proud of what they accomplished
this season.
“Be happy to be part of this. The only
way to look is forward,” Baglietto said.
Shorten called the offensive and defensive
lines “the glue of the team.”
“This is always the hardest night of the
year,” he said. “It’s rough. Really rough.”
The game itself was less important. The
Carpinteria Warriors marched out to an
18-0 lead early on, mostly relying on their
running game, and Malibu was unable to
match them score for score, trailing 25-7 at
the half on senior night. The half ended on
a 22-yard touchdown pass from Pierce to
running back Trevor Simonian, who also
spoke to his teammates after the game.
“There’s no sport like football and I
know you guys all know that,” the senior
told his fellow Sharks.
The second half yielded a touchdown
each, and the Warriors hung on 32-13.
“I’ve been around a lot of programs.
This is unique,” Shorten said. “I wouldn’t
have it any other way.”
