A GENTLE PRESENCE<br />
Like so many others, we were<br />
deeply saddened to hear of Gina<br />
Zamparelli’s untimely passing (“A<br />
Great Force,” June 14).<br />
The home we live in would be gone<br />
if not for her efforts. We will miss her<br />
gentle presence.<br />
Here is the story in her words from<br />
Oct. 31, 2005:<br />
“Dear Mr. Malouf,<br />
Just wanted to send a word of<br />
thanks for purchasing Weatherwolde Castle.I could not be<br />
more pleased to know Weatherwolde now has a wonderful<br />
new owner. Thank you!!<br />
I was the person who created the media blitz the day before<br />
the bulldozer was going to hit Weatherwolde.<br />
Thought you might like to know a bit of history behind<br />
saving Weatherwolde. I received email at midnight, the night<br />
before the bulldozer was going to hit the castle. Tujunga<br />
Historical Society contacted CV Heritage and CV Heritage<br />
contacted me. I’m the president of Friends of the Raymond<br />
Theatre, a nonprofit working to save Pasadena’s historic<br />
Raymond Theatre. I live in La Cañada.<br />
I called both CV Heritage and Tujunga Historical Society<br />
immediately and asked what was going on. Being a concert<br />
promoter by trade, I happened to have all media contacts on<br />
email and numbers to fax radio and television on hand. By 1<br />
a.m. in the morning I had a press release ready. By 3 a.m. I had<br />
emailed and faxed every media outlet possible.<br />
I also called the police and asked they send out cars and<br />
helicopters.<br />
I could not sleep the rest of the night, hoping my media blitz<br />
was enough to scare off the bulldozer. I asked CV Heritage to<br />
call and let me know the outcome.<br />
The calls started coming<br />
early, saying ‘Gina, what did<br />
you do!’ I was told the media<br />
were out in force and so were<br />
the police and I had scared<br />
off the bulldozer. Whew!<br />
CV Heritage asked me<br />
to come see what was<br />
happening, so at 6 p.m.<br />
that evening I went to<br />
the Weatherwolde to find<br />
neighbors and media still<br />
outside the castle.<br />
I have also helped CV<br />
Heritage guide this project,<br />
in case we had to take legal<br />
steps to save Weatherwolde.<br />
I’ve been working 17 years<br />
to save the Raymond<br />
Theatre, so there isn’t much<br />
I haven’t done in the way of<br />
preservation, and now try to<br />
lend a hand to other projects<br />
in need.<br />
Just wanted you to know<br />
the history. I thought it was<br />
so wonderful to see three<br />
preservation organizations,<br />
get in touch in the middle of<br />
the night, to save the castle<br />
by the morning.<br />
We are all overjoyed to<br />
know Weatherwolde now is<br />
in good hands. That was our<br />
hope.<br />
If I can send out a press<br />
release or help you get items<br />
from the castle back, let me<br />
know. I have an email list of<br />
people who were at the site<br />
the day of the rally and media<br />
contacts.<br />
May Weatherwolde bring<br />
you years of joy!<br />
Sincerely, Gina Zamparelli”<br />

IT CAN BE STOPPED<br />
Re Hutchinson Report on<br />
traffic stop reporting procedures<br />
not likely to end racial<br />
profiling<br />
Mr. Hutchinson reports<br />
the notorious NYPD racially<br />
based stops targeting African-<br />
American and Latino<br />
New Yorkers (over 600,000<br />
in 2013) were ended by a<br />
federal judge that year. The<br />
good news is that by 2015<br />
stops and frisks by NYPD had<br />
dropped to 16,000 with no<br />
increase in crime. The police<br />
did scream, but they also<br />
stopped their notorious stop<br />
and frisk racial profiling.<br />
California is starting this<br />
year to require law enforcement<br />
officers to record much<br />
more detail about any stop,<br />
pedestrian or motorist, and<br />
to turn the statistics into<br />
the state Attorney General’s<br />
Office, under the Racial<br />
and Identity Profiling Act<br />
(RIPA). LAPD started this<br />
year. Pasadena PD, due to<br />
our small size, was slated to<br />
start collecting these records<br />
in 2022 until the Coalition for<br />
Increased Civilian Oversight<br />
of Pasadena Police (CICOPP)<br />
and Pasadenans Organizing<br />
for Progress (POP), following<br />
the Chris Ballew beating,<br />
demanded that PPD start<br />
this record keeping next<br />
year.<br />
I think the evidence from<br />
NYPD shows this insidious<br />
pattern of racial profiling by<br />
police, including PPD, can be<br />
stopped. CICOPP/POP will<br />
be monitoring the results<br />
and letting the citizenry<br />
know. With people watching<br />
and the new RIPA law in<br />
California, I think we may<br />
well be seeing the demise of<br />
racial profiling in traffic and<br />
pedestrian stops.<br />

‘BETTER TOGETHER’<br />
PUSD SHOULD EMBRACE A DISTRICTWIDE MAGNET SCHOOL<br />
APPROACH TO HELP INCREASE SOCIOECONOMIC INTEGRATION<br />
At the same time as PUSD’s recent fiscal stabilization plan was adopted by<br />
the board and the reductions included therein were being implemented<br />
via layoffs of various staff, the school consolidation committee’s report<br />
was presented. The superintendent has expressed the desire to pause and<br />
explore ways to increase revenue and also to attract students to increase the<br />
socioeconomic integration of our schools, which the Board of Education has<br />
made a focus area of the district. Students in socioeconomically diverse schools<br />
— regardless of a student’s own economic status — have stronger academic<br />
outcomes, score higher on standardized tests, and are more likely to enroll in<br />
college.<br />
Pasadena Unified has retained a team of nationally recognized school<br />
integration experts — Richard Kahlenberg, Michael Alves and John Brittain — to<br />
help our current federal magnet grant increase the socioeconomic integration<br />
in our schools. According to the 2016 Kahlenberg report “Better Together”<br />
commissioned by the Pasadena Educational Foundation, we know it is possible<br />
for PUSD to attract more middle-class students with the right mix of vibrant<br />
programs and instruction. This expert team recommends keeping schools<br />
open to develop a combination of controlled school choice and the creation of<br />
attractive magnet schools at sites that don’t currently attract enough enrollment.<br />
Logically, to attract and diversify enrollment at any school, you need open school<br />
campuses and available seats for them. The experts recommend that PUSD fully<br />
embrace a districtwide magnet school approach to raise educational outcomes<br />
and graduation rates for the families now in PUSD, and to attract middle-class<br />
families who may be reluctant to send their students to Pasadena public schools.<br />
This is a long-term plan, not an overnight solution. It takes time to train<br />
teachers, build partnerships and create specialized curriculum and programs that<br />
parents and students desire.<br />
Schools mentioned in the committee’s report are home to vibrant academic<br />
programs that are already attracting mixed-income families. For example, Blair<br />
is a school with over 80 percent of students actively choosing it during open<br />
enrollment. The school’s International Baccalaureate program offers students<br />
a rigorous, research-based, interdisciplinary curriculum focusing on critical<br />
thinking and developing internationally and community minded individuals.<br />
While all IB students are eligible to take Advanced Placement (AP) tests (and<br />
for the last two years Blair has had the highest AP pass rate in PUSD), only IB<br />
students may take IB tests, a key college admissions discriminator. It is one of<br />
only 38 schools nationwide authorized to offer all three secondary IB programs:<br />
Middle Years Programme (Grades 6-10), Diploma Programme (Grades 11-12)<br />
and the Career Related Programme which works in conjunction with the Health<br />
Careers Academy (HCA). The school also has a PUSD middle school Spanish<br />
Dual Language Immersion Program, PUSD’s International Academy — whose<br />
team of supportive teachers help newcomer English learners grow their skill. The<br />
academy also includes PUSD’s only JROTC program, a thriving music program<br />
that has been awarded more than $85,000 in grant money over the past six years,<br />
the only Students Run LA program in the San Gabriel Valley, whose members train<br />
to complete the LA marathon, and a revitalized basketball team that has reached<br />
the CIF playoffs for the past few years. Blair’s unique programs attract dozens of<br />
our district students, and PUSD’s commitment to Blair is shown by a $24 million<br />
modernization of the main high school building that will reopen next year, and the<br />
recent installation of a new all-weather running track.<br />
Wilson Middle School has unique advanced studies, project-based learning,<br />
award-winning performing arts, and is a pathway to Pasadena High School’s<br />
App Academy. Its uniqueness has made it the second-largest 6-8 grade program<br />
in PUSD, after Marshall, and the largest traditional/stand alone middle school.<br />
Jefferson Elementary has opened a Spanish Dual Language Immersion program<br />
that has generated renewed interest and enrollment. Next year, Cleveland<br />
Elementary will share its campus with Odyssey Charter School in compliance<br />
with Proposition 39’s requirement of reasonably equivalent facilities. PUSD staff<br />
and charter staff are currently discussing ways that the charter can help provide<br />
more opportunities and services for PUSD students and increase the revenue paid<br />
to PUSD by the charter. Odyssey is committed to the principles of the Diverse<br />
by Design charter network, and this board member is hopeful that the charter<br />
parents will experience the value of the greater diversity offered by PUSD and will<br />
agree to help with the overall goal of socioeconomically integrated public schools<br />
in the PUSD area. ■<br />

WAGE WARS<br />
LOCAL BUSINESS LEADERS, CITY OFFICIALS DIFFER ON IMPACTS OF MINIMUM WAGE INCREASE<br />
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN<br />
City officials and business owners remain divided on Pasadena’s<br />
minimum wage, which rose to $13.25 on July 1 for businesses<br />
with 26 or more workers. Under the city’s wage law, small businesses<br />
with 25 or less employees are now required to pay workers at<br />
least $12 an hour.<br />
Local restaurant owners say they fear that competitors in nearby<br />
cities that are on the state’s minimum wage schedule, which reached<br />
$11 at the beginning of the year, will have an unfair advantage in<br />
keeping prices low by not being forced to pay their employees more<br />
money.<br />
“Every small business in Pasadena is operating at an unfair<br />
disadvantage because the City Council voted to fast track the<br />
pathway to $15 per hour two years ahead of the timeline set by Gov.<br />
Brown and the majority of the cities in California,” said restaurateur<br />
Robin Salzer.<br />
In the year prior to passage of the Pasadena minimum wage<br />
law in February 2016, several high-profile restaurants had closed<br />
their doors, among them Dona Rosa, Villa Sorriso, Fu Shing, Jakes,<br />
Margarita Jones, La Fiesta Grande and Major Dave’s Chicken.<br />
Salzer said he wants to see the local ordinance come back to the<br />
City Council sometime this year for a review of its impacts on local<br />
employment. That meeting, which is scheduled to happen next year,<br />
could decide whether to suspend the proposed increase for 2019.<br />
The local minimum wage is due to rise to $14.25 by next year and<br />
to $15 by 2020 — three years ahead of the state and other cities and<br />
counties, including the city and county Los Angeles.<br />
On Jan. 1, the state minimum wage rose to $11 and will<br />
incrementally rise to $15 an hour in 2023.<br />
In February, the Pasadena City Council is expected to review<br />
the impacts of the minimum wage increases on reducing poverty,<br />
unemployment, job creation, and the overall business climate.<br />
At that meeting, the council is expected to decide on approving<br />
or suspending the next increase.<br />
Beginning July 1, 2022 the local hourly wage will be adjusted<br />
annually by an amount equal to the expected increase in the Los<br />
Angeles-Riverside-Orange County consumer price index for urban<br />
wage earners and clerical workers.<br />
“Uniformly, the council believes each worker in our community<br />
deserves a livable wage,” said Councilman John Kennedy. “That<br />
belief is good for building and advancing a world-class city.<br />
However, we must review the analytics to ensure that we are moving<br />
to $15 an hour in a manner that keeps our business community<br />
SILENT SUMMER?<br />
POPULAR LEVITT CONCERT<br />
SERIES HAS NO SHOWS<br />
SCHEDULED — SO FAR<br />
Organizers of a free local summer concert<br />
series are in the middle of a reorganization<br />
that has led them to all but cancel this year’s<br />
performances.<br />
So far no acts have been announced<br />
for the Pasadena Pavilion Summer Concert<br />
Series, formerly known as the Levitt Pavilion,<br />
due to issues with funding.<br />
However, according to City Manager Steve<br />
Mermell, the group hopes to put on some<br />
shows this year.<br />
“Our understanding is the group, which<br />
has reorganized as the Pasadena Pavilion for<br />
Performing Arts, is hoping to stage at least<br />
four concerts this summer,” Mermell told the<br />
Pasadena Weekly. “There was a recent parting<br />
with the LA Levitt group and the Pasadena<br />
group is working to reconstitute itself.”<br />
Will Bauer, who serves as the executive<br />
director of the Pasadena Pavilion of the<br />
Performing Arts, could not be reached for<br />
comment regarding this story.<br />
So far no shows have been listed on the<br />
group’s website. Last year’s events included<br />
Barbara Morrison, Billy Mitchell and Dean<br />
Torrence of the 1960s surf group Jan and<br />
Dean.<br />
“The music series is a beautiful yearly<br />
event for the city of Pasadena, and contributes<br />
much to the quality of life for the<br />
community,” said former Executive Director<br />
Renee Bodie by email. “It is a true neighborhood<br />
event and needs to continue. During<br />
my tenure, we worked hard to attain funding<br />
for the series, and much of that support has<br />
dwindled for various reasons. The current<br />
board and interim [executive director] are<br />
doing all they can to find a way to continue. It<br />
comes down to a matter of support.”<br />
In 2005, the Levitt Foundation — founded<br />
in 1963 by Mortimer and Mimi Levitt to support<br />
the arts, culture and education — donated<br />
$250,000 to the city to restore the band<br />
shell in Memorial Park on Walnut Street and<br />
Raymond Avenue. The group also committed<br />
to a half-million dollars over five years in<br />
matching funds for a free concert series at<br />
the refurbished band shell, renamed Levitt<br />
Pavilion.<br />
The series was so successful that the<br />
formula was used in several other areas,<br />
including MacArthur Park in Los Angeles.<br />
Shows there are scheduled to continue this<br />
summer.<br />
Locally, the organization continued to<br />
struggle with funding, said Bodie, adding it<br />
costs about $650,000 to put on 50 shows<br />
every summer.<br />

‘FAMILIES BELONG TOGETHER’<br />
THOUSANDS MARCH AGAINST TRUMP’S<br />
ZERO-TOLERANCE IMMIGRATION POLICY<br />
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN<br />
Republicans successfully blocked an amendment by Rep.<br />
Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) that would have prevented the<br />
installation of tent cities to house migrant children on<br />
military bases.<br />
The plan to detain the children is part of President<br />
Donald Trump’s zero-immigration policy which, according<br />
to Schiff, led to thousands of children being separated from Adam Schiff<br />
their parents who were seeking asylum in the US.<br />
Thousands of people took to the streets Saturday, June 30, to oppose Trump’s<br />
policy in what were called “Families Belong Together” marches.<br />
Locally, about 1,500 people marched 2.5 miles from Pasadena City College to<br />
the Pasadena Public Library, according to local reports.<br />
“None of the funds made available by this act may be used to assist with,<br />
coordinate, or approve the construction of facilities for the purpose of detaining an<br />
unaccompanied alien child on lands owned by the Department of Defense,” Schiff<br />
wrote in his amendment.<br />
Trump took to Twitter to reiterate what he views as his strengths on immigration.<br />
“When people come into our Country illegally, we must IMMEDIATELY escort<br />
them back out without going through years of legal maneuvering,” Trump said.<br />
“Our laws are the dumbest anywhere in the world. Republicans want Strong Borders<br />
and no Crime. Dems want Open Borders and are weak on Crime!”<br />
In his executive order, the president pledged to keep families together, but so<br />
far no information has been released revealing how parents would be reunited with<br />
their detained children.<br />
“The border is just as tough. But we do want to keep families together,” Trump<br />
said. “We are keeping the family together.”<br />
“Thousands of children are still being detained in facilities far away from their<br />
parents. Despite statements to the contrary by the president, it is unclear when they<br />
will be reunited and if the administration has truly ended its cruel policy of family<br />
separation,” said Schiff. “Congress should prohibit the use of funds to hold more<br />
children in detention camps, and I am deeply disappointed that the House Majority<br />
has prevented a vote on a more humane policy towards children and families.”<br />
Immigration has been a hot button topic since the last election when Trump was<br />
widely criticized for promising to deport millions of illegal immigrants.<br />
Despite that criticism, more people were deported during Barack Obama’s<br />
presidency. During Obama’s two terms in office, more than 3 million people were<br />
deported.<br />
But immigration experts say that’s only because of changes made to immigration<br />
laws under President George W. Bush.<br />
Prior to the change, most people caught illegally crossing the southern border<br />
were taken back to Mexico and called a “voluntary return.” Critics also deemed the<br />
term “catch and release.”<br />
Voluntary releases were not counted in Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s<br />
deportation statistics until Bush’s presidency, according to the Los<br />
Angeles Times, which led to a rise in recorded deportations under the previous<br />
two presidents. n<br />
‘GRAND ENTERPRISE’<br />
CALTECH AWARDED CONTRACT<br />
EXTENSION TO CONTINUE MANAGING JPL<br />
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN<br />
Caltech has been awarded a $15 billion contract extension<br />
to continue operating Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).<br />
The contract, which begins on Oct. 1, now extends for<br />
up to five years based on performance metrics. Caltech<br />
manages JPL on behalf of NASA.<br />
“What we accomplish over the next decade, people<br />
will remember for centuries,” said Caltech President Thomas F. Rosenbaum in<br />
a prepared statement. “It is a great honor to partner with NASA on this grand<br />
enterprise.”<br />
Thomas F. Rosenbaum<br />
The laboratory’s primary function is the construction and operation of planetary<br />
robotic spacecraft, though it also conducts Earth-orbit and astronomy missions. It is<br />
also responsible for operating NASA’s Deep Space Network.<br />
Among JPL’s major active projects are the Mars Science Laboratory mission<br />
(which includes the Curiosity rover), the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity, the<br />
Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the Dawn mission to the dwarf planet Ceres and<br />
asteroid Vesta, and the Juno spacecraft orbiting Jupiter. JPL also monitors meteors<br />
that could collide with Earth.<br />
JPL’s Space Flight Operations Facility and Twenty-Five-Foot Space Simulator are<br />
designated National Historic Landmarks.<br />
Caltech has been a committed partner of NASA in the management of the lab<br />
since it was founded in 1936. Researchers, engineers and technicians at Caltech and<br />
JPL, both located in Pasadena, have helped to keep the US at the forefront of space<br />
exploration and planetary science. JPL and Caltech have collaborated on a variety of<br />
missions and disciplines to advance understanding of Earth and the universe. n<br />

growing and healthy to make job growth possible.”<br />
During his election campaign in 2015, Mayor<br />
Terry Tornek said he supported the idea of increasing<br />
the minimum wage but wanted to wait to examine<br />
ordinances passed by the Los Angeles City Council<br />
and Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. The<br />
Pasadena council unanimously approved the citywide<br />
minimum wage in 2016.<br />
Increasing the minimum wage was opposed by<br />
members of the Pasadena Chamber of Commerce,<br />
who favored smaller pay hikes. Under that proposal,<br />
minimum wage would have increased to $12.50 by<br />
2020, and then stop there.<br />
“We have seen some impacts around the edges,”<br />
said Chamber of Commerce President Paul Little.<br />
“There are fewer employees in businesses that hire<br />
minimum-wage employees. We have seen restaurants<br />
close, but it’s hard to say if it’s just because of the<br />
ordinance. Several factors could play a part in it —<br />
rent increases, cost of materials and labor costs are<br />
all factors.<br />
“Restaurants are being replaced by chains. At the<br />
same time, we are seeing places cope. Some places<br />
are opening later and closing earlier. You’re going to<br />
see more of that, I would expect,” Little said.<br />
The council received about a dozen letters from<br />
restaurant owners and officials at local nonprofits<br />
opposing the increase.<br />
Several public hearings were held to give all sides a<br />
chance to comment on the issue. However, restaurant<br />
owners still claim they were not allowed a chance to<br />
express their views.<br />
During a tense meeting in 2016, several local<br />
restaurant owners took their complaints directly<br />
to Tornek. During the sometimes tense gathering,<br />
restaurant owners attempted to call Tornek on<br />
the carpet for an alleged promise he made after<br />
the council began discussing raising the minimum<br />
wage.<br />
“We were promised our voices would be heard,”<br />
said Michael Hawkins, a partner at Green Street<br />
Restaurant. “But it went straight to Ed Tech,” he<br />
said of the council’s Economics, Development and<br />
Technology Committee.<br />
Tornek responded that the owners were heard,<br />
but they didn’t get the result they wanted. Business<br />
leaders left the meeting even more disgruntled.<br />
In April 2015, Seattle became the first city to<br />
establish a path to a $15 minimum wage after nearly<br />

two years of discussions and studies. After that<br />
ordinance was passed, some restaurants increased<br />
prices and instituted no-tip policies. Unemployment<br />
decreased from 6.3 percent to 5.2 percent.<br />
Several restaurants shut down, but those<br />
business owners said that the ordinance did not play<br />
a part in their considerations, instead associating<br />
location with their decisions. As of September,<br />
the city of Seattle was issuing about 25 restaurant<br />
permits a month.<br />
Shortly after that, other cities throughout the<br />
country began raising the minimum wage.<br />
Jon Pollard, Pasadena’s code compliance manager<br />
who has visited hundreds of local businesses<br />
since the council voted to increase wages, said very<br />
few business owners have complained to him about<br />
paying more.<br />
“A few people said it would cause difficulties, but<br />
by and large there have been few complaints,” Pollard<br />
told the Pasadena Weekly.<br />
City Councilman Tyron Hampton said he has<br />
become concerned about the negative impact higher<br />
wages might have on local businesses.<br />
“I have seen places with higher prices and some<br />
businesses that are open fewer hours,” Hampton said.<br />
“The business owners are trying to figure out how<br />
to pay higher salaries without laying people off. We<br />
definitely needed the wage increase, but since we<br />
passed it, I think we need to assess it. It’s smart to do<br />
that.”<br />
Hampton said he has seen more self-service<br />
kiosks in local businesses and admits he was<br />
surprised by a visit to a McDonald’s in Riverside<br />
that had no cashier.<br />
“There was no one at the cash register,” Hampton<br />
said. “You insert cash or card in a machine and you<br />
order on a screen.”<br />
Despite the increase in the wage, it could still be<br />
almost impossible for single minimum wage earners<br />
to live in Pasadena.<br />
The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment<br />
in Pasadena has risen more than 51.7 percent in the<br />
past six years, with rents on some one-bedroom<br />
apartments totaling as much as $2,200 a month.<br />
“I personally support an increase in the<br />
minimum wage, but I do have a strong disagreement<br />
in what I consider a flawed process and<br />
implementation of the Pasadena Minimum Wage<br />
Ordinance,” Salzer said. n<br />

HIGH ALERT<br />
PASADENA’S BRUCE RIGNEY RECOUNTS WORKING IN A NUCLEAR MISSILE BUNKER IN ‘TWO YEARS ON THE WATCH’<br />
BY CARL KOZLOWSKI<br />
Two days after graduating from college in 1966, Rhode Island native Bruce<br />
Rigney received his military draft notice and faced a dilemma confronted by<br />
millions of other young American men at the time. He could either accept his<br />
fate and ship off to the battle zone of a war he didn’t support in Vietnam, or find an<br />
alternative way to honor the law without getting into a life-and-death situation.<br />
He called a friend whose father was a retired four-star Air Force general to see<br />
if he could get help being assigned to a safe position. Rigney wound up accepting an<br />
Air Force intelligence assignment to the NATO Sector Operations Center for nuclear<br />
missiles in Germany, where he spent two years on a team that was perpetually waiting<br />
for the unfathomable moment when the call would come to launch them at the<br />
Soviet Union.<br />
Fifty years later, the longtime Pasadena resident has blended his memories of<br />
that experience with newly declassified documents about his time in the bunker to<br />
create the book “Two Years on the Watch: What I Learned in the Secret Cold War<br />
Bunker.” Filled with fascinating stories and facts that were unknown for decades to<br />
anyone without a top-secret clearance, he shares his experiences in averting hostilities<br />
between Soviet and American forces that had stood on the precipice of global<br />
warfare.<br />
The book also explores his troubled thoughts and feelings as part of a two-man<br />
team that could have started World War III. Rigney shared the stories behind the<br />
stories in an email interview with the Pasadena Weekly.<br />
PASADENA WEEKLY: What were some of the best parts of living overseas for a<br />
couple of years?<br />
BRUCE RIGNEY: When I was on the Intelligence Watch Officer post, the four Watch<br />
Officers worked on a shared 24/7 per week schedule, but we were in the mountains<br />
far away from any cities and points of interest in Germany or the rest of Europe.<br />
When I had connected up with Chris, a US Army Nurse who would become my wife<br />
after a year together, we devised a system of working double shifts, working 16 hours<br />
a day for two days or more, and accumulating periods of four days off.<br />
We were able to travel to Amsterdam, Munich, Frankfurt, London, went camping<br />
in Luxembourg, and took our honeymoon in Florence, all with four-day trips using<br />
the remarkably cost-saving “Europe on Five Dollars a Day” as our guide. That’s right:<br />
Five dollars for a clean, comfortable room and three meals.<br />
Were there some tense moments while you were on watch?<br />
Yes, the tensions of the Cold War were being very clearly acted out on a daily<br />
basis in the military face-off between the US and the Soviets in the Air Defense Zone<br />
between West and East Germany.<br />
The Watch Officer post demanded continuous attention to any deviations from<br />
normal activity in the air traffic being monitored by the US radar systems. The<br />
continuous display of air traffic on the 40-foot high screen in the bunker, along with<br />
constant updates from military communications intercepts, kept us in a high state of<br />
alert on a daily basis and we had many alarming incidents that required immediate<br />
response. This was not a laid-back activity. It would have been a serious mistake to<br />
assume that all was well on any given watch shift.<br />
During my two years on the watch, I encountered numerous apparent incidents<br />

<strong>07.05.18</strong> | PASADENA WEEKLY 9
Bruce Rigney<br />
HIGH ALERT<br />
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9<br />
or close calls in our zone of responsibility.<br />
These were usually threats to civilian<br />
aircraft travelling in the restricted air<br />
corridors to Berlin, Soviet aircraft crossing<br />
the border into West Germany and Soviet<br />
aircraft tracking US reconnaissance flights<br />
along the border.<br />
The most stunning and intense event in<br />
my two years on the watch occurred in the<br />
Spring of 1968 when I began to receive data<br />
from sources beyond our radar range that<br />
indicated that about 40 aircraft from Russia<br />
and Poland were heading toward us at<br />
a steady speed of about four hundred miles<br />
per hour, most likely strategic bombers that<br />
could be carrying nuclear weapons. The<br />
bombers were soon joined by supersonic<br />
fighter aircraft that would provide escort<br />
for them.<br />
This was either the first wave of an<br />
actual attack against the NATO forces in<br />
Western Europe or a massive training exercise<br />
to test our resources. It certainly exceeded<br />
anything described in my training. I<br />
determined from all the data available that<br />
it was just an attempt to gather response<br />
data, and assured the Operations Center<br />
Controller that we should avoid engaging<br />
the Soviet fleet with our fighter jets and<br />
surface to air missiles. Many of the Soviet aircraft crossed into West German territory,<br />
but they all made U-turns back to the east.<br />
What are some of the biggest changes in geopolitics since your days in the service?<br />
The biggest change has been that the collapse of the Soviet Union resulted in a renaming<br />
of one of the opponents in the conflict. It always was the US versus Russia. We knew<br />
that at that time and we should not be deceived by a name change. After all, the President<br />
Putin of Russia had been a KGB agent for the Soviet Union for nearly two decades! The<br />
satellite countries of the former Soviet Union did serve to bring the Russian forces in<br />
closer proximity to the US forces in Europe, but they were never a factor in strengthening<br />
the Soviet’s military forces in the European theater.<br />
What are some of the largest nuclear threats facing our world today?<br />
Today, there are nine countries that possess a total of 15,000 nuclear weapons. The<br />
US and Russia, while each have proclaimed they are no longer engaged in a Cold War,<br />
maintain a combined total of about 1,800 nuclear weapons on high-alert status, ready to<br />
be launched within minutes of warning — primarily aimed at each other.<br />
Their combined stockpiles of nuclear weapons comprise more than 90 percent of the<br />
total of such weapons on Earth. With 1,800 nuclear weapons on high alert, we have not<br />
actually seen the end of the Cold War.<br />
There are still 180 B61 nuclear weapons poised to be launched in Europe under the<br />
US Life Extension Program of 2012 that provides a total destructive force nearly 4,000<br />
times greater than the Hiroshima blast of<br />
1945, a far greater force than all the nuclear<br />
weapons deployed in West Germany during<br />
my period of service. The explanation<br />
for continuing to maintain the US nuclear<br />
presence in Europe was that these weapons<br />
are ‘critical for transatlantic security,’ a<br />
euphemism for the continuation of the Cold<br />
War that supposedly ‘ended’ in 1991.<br />
We’re still fighting proxy wars in the<br />
Middle East and we’re still in an arms race,<br />
with the US and Russia racing to modernize<br />
their nuclear weapons arsenals. And the<br />
beat goes on, with Russian incursions into<br />
the Crimea and the Ukraine and the US crying<br />
“foul” and submitting formal protests.<br />
How do you feel about President Trump’s<br />
somewhat cavalier attitude toward our<br />
nuclear arsenal (letting someone at Mara-Lago<br />
hold the “football,” tweets toward<br />
North Korea, etc.)?<br />
Where the football is kept is of no importance.<br />
I would be surprised if they still use<br />
that same system, since there are so many<br />
more effective security technologies available.<br />
And there should be a very tight lock<br />
on the release system for those weapons.<br />
Trump’s tweets have had the effect of<br />
opening a communication line with a hostile would-be adversary. This will probably result<br />
in better relations with North Korea. If it also results in the complete termination of<br />
North Korea’s nuclear program, Trump might be in line for the Nobel Peace Prize!<br />
Is there a feasible path to nuclear deproliferation in our time?<br />
Efforts on behalf of a nuclear weapons ban treaty by all the countries of Earth are<br />
finally starting to make some headway. The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear<br />
Weapons (ICAN) has been successfully promoting implementation of the United Nations<br />
nuclear weapon ban treaty adopted in 2017. Last year, in recognition of these efforts,<br />
ICAN was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Further support of ICAN will enable them to<br />
bring pressure on the major powers to recognize their responsibility toward safeguarding<br />
the populations of Earth.<br />
The US has long provided a strong message to the world that all people are created<br />
equal and that they are entitled to the inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit<br />
of happiness. The US now needs to step forward and take full responsibility for having<br />
developed nuclear weapons and assume a leadership position in the removal and<br />
elimination of the most powerful weapons ever developed. That will require a strong and<br />
compassionate American leadership that is dedicated to the concept of safeguarding life<br />
on Earth and ensuring life, liberty and happiness for all mankind. ■<br />

THE PIZZA PLANT PUTS DOWN ROOTS IN PASADENA<br />
BY SIMONE DUPUY | PHOTOS BY DANNY LIAO<br />
The Pizza Plant may be the one pizza joint in which not a single<br />
patron will be found dabbing at the surface of their slice with<br />
a napkin. Completely vegan and organic, this brainchild of cofounders<br />
Marvin Acuna and Ravi Choudhry was born of the idea of<br />
clean and healthy living just last December, coming to fruition mere<br />
weeks ago as part of The Commissary in Pasadena. I am sure many<br />
of you share my concerns at the haphazard tossing around of the<br />
term “pizza” with all this gluten-free, plant-based mumbo jumbo.<br />
I mean, pizza is pretty perfect as is. Crust, sauce, cheese. It’s a science<br />
with a proven formula. Admittedly, the grub served up at The<br />
Pizza Plant might make a Sicilian grandpa faint, but just because<br />
this “pizza” breaks the mold a bit doesn’t mean it isn’t worth eating.<br />
In fact, it very much is.<br />
Once I redefined The Pizza Plant’s pies in my mind as “openfaced<br />
focaccia sandwiches,” I enjoyed myself a great deal more.<br />
Gone were my expectations of greasy triangles with foot-long<br />
cheese pulls, and full was I of mouthful after mouthful of guiltfree,<br />
vaguely pizza-like indulgence. With this mindset, vegans and<br />
carnivores alike can appreciate the flavorful fare. Creamy pesto,<br />
unique vegan cheeses and well-prepared, high-quality ingredients<br />
constituted some highlights across our three pizza selections.<br />
First up, a classic: Not Your Grandma’s, essentially a margherita<br />
pizza with a sweet balsamic drizzle. Refreshingly, Chef Rachel<br />
Carr at The Pizza Plant is not lazily vegan. By this, I mean that<br />
components of a dish that are already traditionally vegan still get<br />
the attention they deserve. The San Marzano Marinara blanketing<br />
the crust was expertly balanced and fragrant with oregano. As for<br />
the cashew mozzarella, the house recipe including nutritional yeast<br />
offered a welcome savory punch. Unfortunately, we decided to try<br />
out the gluten-free crust (an added $2.50 charge for our personal<br />
pie) on this pizza. Like so many of its gluten free brethren, the rice/<br />
tapioca/quinoa-constituted base fell victim to goopiness. Perhaps<br />
the crust was undercooked or perhaps it was just too dense, as<br />
many GF items are, but it formed paste in every available mouth<br />
crevice, ruining what could have been a respectable plant-based<br />
pizza. The dough’s flavor was good, but not worth the regrettable<br />
texture. With luck, the young business will work out this kink to<br />
serve the celiac-afflicted community with pride.<br />
Still, crust in general does seem a hurdle left for Pizza Planters<br />
to clear. Our other two pizzas came on a moderately tasty but<br />
overly doughy rye. I’m open to thick, chewy crust, but this focaccia<br />
facsimile lacked any textural intrigue or particular airiness.<br />

Luckily, the toppings saved the day. Well distributed<br />
veggies seasoned with accomplished nuance give the<br />
Green Goddess her grace. Where the crust lacked in<br />
crispness, asparagus came to the rescue. Herbaceous<br />
pumpkin seed pesto and perfectly ripe avocado<br />
filled the mouth with luxurious creaminess and<br />
depth, a rarely perfected evocation in vegan dining.<br />
Generous touches of roasted broccoli, lemony cashew<br />
mozzarella and sprouts made for a balanced and<br />
filling dish. However, the crowning glory of this pizza<br />
was the plant-based ricotta. The vegan cheese was,<br />
indeed, ricotta-like in texture, but beyond that it was<br />
superior in its cheesy endeavors. There was a salty,<br />
creamy funkiness that all humans deserve in fine,<br />
complex cheeses, vegan or otherwise. I was excited to<br />
know that Choudhry and Acuna’s plans for the future<br />
include marketing some of these original recipes<br />
commercially as Plant Craft Foods, LLC. I’ll have<br />
that cashew ricotta in my fridge as soon as it hits the<br />
shelves, please and thank you.<br />
Our final pizza, christened Yes, We Will Take You<br />
To Funghi Town, was similarly delicious with its<br />
plentiful pesto and mozzarella, the main gamechanger<br />
being a medley of roasted mushrooms. Perhaps<br />
even more so than imitation meats, mushrooms are<br />
a great way to allude to savory, umami meatiness,<br />
and the toppings on this mouthful of a pizza were no<br />
exception. Speaking of, it’s a good thing orders at The<br />
Commissary are kiosk-operated so there’s no need to<br />
say “Yes, We Will Take You To Funghi Town” aloud to<br />
a live human cashier. It does make the space a little<br />
lonely, but that’s all right. The Pizza Plant storefronts<br />
plan on being exclusively carry-out and delivery,<br />
a business style that obviously lends itself well to<br />
pizza. Fortunately, the pies at Pizza Plant travel fairly<br />
well and do stand the test of overnight refrigeration.<br />
Let that be known to all my fellow cold-pizza-in-themorning<br />
advocates.<br />
As if three pizzas weren’t enough to satiate the<br />
few of us, we also ordered some Buffalo Cauliflower<br />
Wings (gluten free here). Normally, I’d pick this vegan<br />
alternative over wings any day: lots of vitamins, less<br />
fat, no bones to pick around, no weird sinewy bits.<br />
Just a reason to douse your vegetables in vinegar and<br />
chili and call it healthy. Buffalo-style cauliflower is,<br />
in my experience, a crowd-pleaser and a personal<br />
indulgence. However, I have always made them coated<br />
in flour-based batter and baked to crispy brownness,<br />
which is no bueno for someone gluten free. While<br />
the “wings” at The Pizza Plant are safe for those<br />
with dietary restrictions, they were also just … fine.<br />
There was a yummy and unexpected pickle-y aspect<br />
to the morsels, perhaps from the apple cider vinegar<br />
in the sauce, that made them unique, though not<br />
altogether mouthwatering. The real letdown, though,<br />
was the side of house-made ranch. It is possible the<br />
salt and sugar in the kitchen were switched or maybe<br />
someone bought sweetened almond milk on accident,<br />
but the flavor was akin to spoiled tzatziki or dillflavored<br />
whipped cream. We happily munched on the<br />
cauliflower without it and returned to our superior<br />
pizzas.<br />
Along with serving consciously sourced and<br />
nutritious food, The Pizza Plant plans on serving<br />
the community. For each pizza sold, another is given<br />
to the Union Station Homeless Services. The large<br />
carryout boxes are designed by a local street artist.<br />
There’s even a rewards program for patrons: every<br />
twelfth pizza is free with your stamp card. A venture<br />
that stemmed from the pursuit of good health has<br />
evolved into a great community support system.<br />
Choudhry says there are big plans to expand to 1,000<br />
locations in the next three years, to be the Domino’s<br />
of plant-based pizza. Personally, I don’t think that’s<br />
giving The Pizza Plant enough credit. Domino’s is<br />
food for very sad and/or very drunk college students.<br />
While a sad and drunk college student would no doubt<br />
enjoy a slice of The Half Baked (boasting just about<br />
every topping plus CBD oil), my physique and my<br />
friends would thank me much more if I showed up<br />
to the function with a stack of Pizza Plant pies over<br />
Domino’s. With a little time and attention, The Pizza<br />
Plant will surely iron out their few and forgivable<br />
imperfections and do great things. Maybe they should<br />
aspire to be the Amazon of vegan pizza: be kings of<br />
delivery and bring Whole Foods to mind.<br />

POWER BREAKFAST<br />
Navy League and USS Pasadena Foundation feed America’s finest<br />
On June 21, the Pasadena Chapter of the Navy League<br />
of the United States and the USS Pasadena Foundation<br />
arranged for a catered send-off breakfast for the<br />
Headquarters Company of the 2nd Battalion, 23rd Regiment<br />
of the 4th Marine Division (“Pasadena’s Own”) at the<br />
Blecksmith US Marine Corps Reserve Center located in east<br />
Pasadena.<br />
The Battalion is a Marine Corps reserve unit with<br />
approximately 1,000 reservists and active-duty members<br />
training at six different reserve centers in California,<br />
Nevada and Utah. In late June the battalion was called up<br />
to active duty for a nine-month deployment. The battalion is currently engaged in a month<br />
and a half of integrated training with other Marine Corps air and ground units at the Marine<br />
Corps Air Ground Combat Center near Twenty Nine Palms. Following that training, most<br />
of the battalion will then deploy further and join other Marine units in Okinawa, Japan for<br />
the remainder of its active duty. The battalion has a very distinguished history of service in<br />
combat in the Pacific during World War II for which it received the Presidential Unit Citation.<br />
It was also previously deployed to Iraq.<br />
Over 120 Marines began the first day of their recall at the reserve center, with a breakfast<br />
of choice consisting of chicken, bacon or vegetarian burritos along with salsa, fruit, pastries,<br />
coffee and orange juice.<br />
Capt. Bill Creedon, USN (Ret.) of La Cañada Flintridge,<br />
president of the USS Pasadena Foundation, thanked them<br />
for the dedication and considerable sacrifices that they<br />
and their families from all around the greater Pasadena<br />
area make in order for the rest of us to enjoy the freedoms<br />
that many often take for granted. Creedon and the other<br />
members of the Navy League and the foundation assisting<br />
with the breakfast wished the Marines a productive<br />
deployment and a safe return home to their family and<br />
friends in nine months.<br />
The Pasadena Chapter of the Navy League and the USS<br />
Pasadena Foundation are organizations with members from<br />
throughout the greater Pasadena area. Their mission is to<br />
provide support to both active and reserve members of the<br />
naval services (Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard) and to educate the public regarding<br />
the role that sea power plays in maintaining America’s national security.<br />

FRESH STARTS<br />
DON’T LET PAST TRAUMAS INTERFERE WITH YOUR LIFE TODAY<br />
Dear Patti,<br />
My father went to prison when I was 7 (I’m now 15) and I’ve been in group homes<br />
ever since. My mother died when I was 2. My fourth and latest foster mother is<br />
named Sheri. I’ve been with her for only two months and can already tell she’s the<br />
best foster mother I’ve had. She’s nice and friendly and tells me I’m really smart<br />
and can grow up to be whatever I want. I know I’m bright, but she’s the first foster<br />
mom to acknowledge it.<br />
In spite of her kindness, I feel uncomfortable when I’m around her. I go back and<br />
forth between feeling intimidated, shy, withdrawn and resentful/argumentative.<br />
Sometimes I purposely disagree with her for no reason or refuse to be helpful. Other<br />
kids will make fun of her and I’ll laugh out loud on purpose to put her down. I keep<br />
thinking thoughts about how she’s a know-it-all, a bitch and too bossy and controlling,<br />
but I know she’s done nothing wrong and hasn’t been domineering or interfering<br />
at all. In fact, she’s been supportive and interested in my ideas and who I am.<br />
In one of the previous homes where I lived, my foster mom was very controlling<br />
and mean. I felt like a second-class person around her and had to fight for any<br />
rights at all. I’m pretty sure I’m reacting to Sheri as if she’s the old one. I don’t want<br />
to but I can’t seem to help it. Sometimes Sheri even looks and smells like the other<br />
one. I don’t think it’s really true. I want to move on from old history and drama. I<br />
want the ability to have new relationships. I’ve been in counseling twice before and<br />
can go when I want. One time it was pretty good and the other time it sucked but<br />
I’m willing to try again.<br />
— Parisella<br />
Dear Parisella,<br />
I agree with both you and your foster mom; you are intelligent. You’re also self-reflective<br />
and it’s clear you want to mature and grow. I understand. You want to heal from the<br />
pain and insecurity of past traumas so they won’t interfere with your life today. That’s<br />
wonderful and an excellent choice, but oftentimes when people move forward it’s not<br />
without the awkward weight of emotional baggage.<br />
You’ve already taken the critical step of realizing Sheri is treating you just fine, but<br />
you’re emotionally reacting as if she were a cruel carbon copy of her predecessor. This<br />
is called transference. The more you acknowledge and experience your repressed feelings<br />
toward your foster mom, the less power those historic feelings will exert on your<br />
present feelings toward Sheri.<br />
In order to reduce the tendency to transfer your feelings onto others, I recommend<br />
you attend professional counseling. Find a therapist you trust and feel connected to.<br />
Keep in mind, however, there’s a good possibility you’ll eventually transfer feelings onto<br />
your therapist as well. That’s often part of the therapeutic process which your therapist<br />
will guide you through. The goal is for the two of you to create a safe, private space in<br />
which you carefully examine old memories and feel painful and negative emotions. In<br />
counseling, you’ll undoubtedly explore your fear of becoming close and intimate with<br />
Sheri, leaving you vulnerable to being hurt and abandoned.<br />
While you’re waiting to get into counseling, try this exercise. Write down all of the<br />
traits— both good and bad—that characterize your previous foster mother. On a separate<br />
piece of paper, write down all of the good and bad traits which Sheri exhibits. After<br />
reviewing both lists, write down the behaviors from your prior foster’s mom’s list that<br />
you’re currently transferring onto Sheri. Look clearly at the difference.<br />
Next, choose a negative trait from your prior foster mom’s list and remember a<br />
specific time when she exhibited that trait and caused you to feel mistreated. See the<br />
experience in your mind’s eye and journal it. Feel your anger and hurt. At your own<br />
pace, do this exercise with each negative trait and you’ll begin to understand where all<br />
of this is rooted. Share this experience with your new therapist.<br />
Don’t let the past interfere with your new relationships and others to come. ■<br />

The Flint water crisis remains one of the worst blights on the<br />
nation’s environmental record; residents of the depressed<br />
Michigan city are still being advised to use bottled or filtered<br />
water, despite the state’s declaration in April that Flint’s<br />
water now tests below federal action levels (michigan.gov/snyder/0,4668,7-277-57577-465766--,00.html).<br />

TOXIC TRAGEDY<br />
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 19<br />
weak-spined mayor and raises a baby bottle at her first<br />
press conference, you can feel the explosive impact<br />
when she warns a throng of reporters and politicians<br />
of the dangers of “what you don’t see.” Her indignation<br />
is fueled by the awareness that “moms, activists,<br />
pastors, and even our kids” had been speaking out for<br />
a year about the city’s water, to no avail.<br />
“Why wasn’t anyone in government listening to<br />
them?” she wonders. “Was it because they were poor<br />
and predominantly black? Or was it because there<br />
was no reason for government to listen to the people<br />
because Flint was no longer a democracy?”<br />
Hanna-Attisha’s work earned widespread accolades;<br />
Time Magazine named her one of the Most<br />
Influential People in the World in 2016, alongside<br />
civil engineer Marc Edwards, a corrosion expert and<br />
crucial ally whose earlier battles with the EPA, the<br />
CDC and municipal government during the 2004 Washington,<br />
DC water crisis deepen the book’s thematic<br />
subtext. (Not to mention concern about national water<br />
standards.)<br />
Key to Flint’s water crisis was Michigan Gov. Rick<br />
Snyder’s decision to essentially strip Flint’s municipal<br />
government of its powers by appointing an emergency<br />
manager whose mission was austerity at all costs.<br />
Differences in water treatment and transmission<br />
systems were not sufficiently considered when Flint’s<br />
water source was switched from Lake Huron and the<br />
Detroit River to the Flint River. Citizens had no power<br />
to remove the appointed emergency managers whose<br />
decisions caused lead to leach into their water supply,<br />
and who were accountable only to the governor.<br />
Hanna-Attisha blames Flint’s crisis on “the ideology of<br />
extreme austerity and ‘all government is bad government.’”<br />
“In my mind,” she writes, “it wasn’t a coincidence<br />
that DC and Flint are both places, in different ways,<br />
that lack adequate political representation — places<br />
where democracy is far from complete. … In Flint,<br />
with an unelected emergency manager in charge …<br />
layers of accountability and responsibility had been<br />
stripped away.”<br />
An Iraqi immigrant born inEngland to scientists<br />
who fled Saddam Hussein’s dictatorship, Hanna-<br />
Attisha grew up riding bikes, acing tests and learning<br />
environmental activism in suburban Detroit, where<br />
her father supported the family for decades with<br />
his GM job. Weaving her family’s “saga of loss and<br />
Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha<br />
dislocation” into her role in publicizing the Flint crisis<br />
illuminates her ethical commitment to her patients<br />
and community, and her outrage at how the system is<br />
betraying them.<br />
“As it had for so many immigrants over the<br />
centuries, the promise of America worked for my<br />
family. We’d left a country that was broken, unsafe,<br />
unpredictable, and oppressing its own people for a<br />
country that allowed us to thrive. My parents didn’t<br />
have much when they arrived in the United States,<br />
but they were able to use their educations to find<br />
good-paying jobs, buy a house in a safe neighborhood,<br />
and educate [my brother] Mark and me at<br />
Michigan’s excellent public schools and universities.<br />
The American Dream — buoyed, backed, and<br />
underwritten by the choices of the American people,<br />
expressed through their democratically elected government<br />
— worked for us in so many ways that it no<br />
longer works for my kids in Flint — and maybe was<br />
never meant to.”<br />
Peppered with parts-per-billion statistics, her<br />
language is nonetheless conversational, and occasionally<br />
amusing. Her shock at discovering that Edwards<br />
is a conservative Republican is a bit comical, though<br />
it also triggers worthy self-examination. Despite their<br />
different political philosophies, they were united in<br />
their belief that “if you weren’t on the right side of a<br />
public health crisis, you were a bystander to a crime.”<br />
“What mattered wasn’t politics or political philosophy<br />
— it as Flint’s kids. That was ground I was<br />
willing to stand on with anybody. And it was a good<br />
piece of ground to occupy … I was a true believer<br />
when it came to government. I had faith in its ability<br />
to protect rights, promote equality, and mitigate<br />
historic injustice. So much of my life and advocacy<br />
rested on that.”<br />
Despite the faith-shaking machinations of various<br />
public figures, the book ultimately affirms those values.<br />
At a time when citizens nationwide feel betrayed<br />
by elected representatives, we need more examples of<br />
civic heroism like this. n<br />

Two tracks into Ben Bostick’s<br />
“Hellfire,” it’s obvious that<br />
this is altogether rowdier<br />
than last year’s self-titled album.<br />
His gruff baritone’s toughened,<br />
electric guitar has replaced<br />
strummy acoustic, and a full band<br />
pounds out shorter, snappier<br />
working-class tales like the sardonic<br />
“It Ain’t Cheap Being Poor,”<br />
“The Other Side of Wrong” (“A<br />
man of my disposition should steer<br />
clear of alcohol / If I didn’t make<br />
bad decisions I wouldn’t make no<br />
decisions at all”) and “No Show<br />
Blues” (“I had a job in the Valley<br />
but I doubt I do anymore/ I took a<br />
day off and then I took four more”).<br />
The songs were composed during<br />
a yearlong residency at Downtown<br />
LA’s rustic Escondite bar, when<br />
Bostick was trying to connect with<br />
cynical audiences.<br />
“The whole goal was to make<br />
music the crowd would get into.<br />
Sort of dark, fast songs seemed<br />
to be what turned them on,” he<br />
recalls with a laugh. “I just went<br />
with it.”<br />

troubadour with a discerning eye<br />
for detail, Bostick says he wanted<br />

“Hellfire,” recorded in three days,<br />
to sound “almost like a punk<br />
record.” He created a Spotify<br />
playlist of artists who inspired<br />
the music’s spirit: Bo Diddley,<br />
the Hives, Jerry Lee Lewis, the<br />
Pogues, the Rolling Stones,<br />
Dwight Yoakam.<br />
“We just recorded it real fast<br />
and raw and live in the studio,”<br />
he says. “I wanted it to have that<br />
energy that you get with performances<br />
at a live venue, with<br />
all the flaws and no overdubs,<br />
nothing prettied up. My goal was<br />
to make it with the raw power<br />
of country music [but like] Iggy<br />
Pop.”<br />
Closing track “The Outsider,”<br />
with Luke Miller’s wicked organ<br />
and slamming drums from Perry<br />
Morris that Max Weinberg might<br />
appreciate, suggests future<br />
releases may “open up the sound<br />
palette” even more.<br />
“I definitely don’t want to be<br />
somebody who does the same<br />
thing over and over again. I like on<br />
every record to do different stuff.<br />
When I make my next record,” Bostick<br />
warns, laughing, “don’t expect<br />
anything.”<br />
By that time his daily life will<br />

TRAX BY BLISS<br />
PETAL, Magic Gone (Run for Cover): HHHH<br />
Pennsylvania indie-rocker Kiley Lotz, better known<br />
as Petal, tunefully documents a raw, thorny period<br />
of breakup, breakdown and acceptance with<br />
grungy guitar, piano, occasional drum thrashing,<br />
and unwavering clarity. “I wish I could unsee your<br />
kindness, every upward turn of your mouth, but I<br />
cannot/ So I’ll bury it in sound, in grace, erasing<br />
myself,” she vows over simply strummed guitar<br />
during the harrowing, octave-spanning “Carve.” As<br />
rock confessionals go, hers are brutal, yet beautifully<br />
delivered. At the Bootleg Bar in LA July 6. petalpa.<br />

GINKGOA, One Time (self-produced): HH½<br />
Frontwoman Nicolle Rochelle coos like a saucy<br />
Andrews Sister during “Don’t Give a Damn,” then<br />
kittenishly fingers a page from Madonna’s “Material<br />
Girl” playbook for “Got to Gimme” (“You got to buy<br />
me all the stuff that my heart needs/ …Shut up and<br />
kiss me”) and the partly rapped “Boy Bounce” (“Grow<br />
yourself a pair/ Didja ever really care”). Producer<br />
Antoine Chatenet cherry-picks beats, instruments and<br />
samples to forge a kind of streetwise electro gypsyswing<br />
hybrid. It’s a lighthearted EP — not exactly<br />
memorable, but pleasantly distracting in the moment.<br />

DAWES, Passwords (HUB): HHHH<br />
Compositional craftsmanship and a sense of rooted<br />
community contribute to the gradually revealed<br />
pleasures of the LA folk-rockers’ sixth album.<br />
Frontman Taylor Goldsmith rues political polarization<br />
(“Living in the Future”), nurses romantic bruises<br />
(“Stay Down”) and questions priorities (the hooky<br />
“Feed the Fire”) before calling out his self-deceit with<br />
“My Greatest Invention” (“You can turn a second<br />
inside out and end up with an eternity/ But to polish<br />
up a diamond you have to clear some debris”) and<br />
committing to love and his Pasadena home on the<br />
achingly melodic “I Can’t Love.” It’s the kind of album<br />
you can take for long drives and stay friends with<br />
afterward. dawestheband.com<br />

BLUES ACE J.C. SPIRES RELEASES CD AT THE ALEX THEATRE<br />
For a midweek blues blast visit Glendale’s Alex Theatre Wednesday, when J.C. Spires, joined by an all-star band of session players,<br />
presents a free CD release show celebrating his release of “Farewell to a Rose.”<br />
The Glendale-based guitarist has traveled a long blues highway to reach this point. He started out in his native stomping<br />
grounds of Detroit, playing with none other than the great John Lee Hooker. Following that, he moved west, landing in Glendale and<br />
performing for years at the former Jax Bar & Grill.<br />
Following the venue’s closure, his band dissolved. A period of disappointing let downs followed, with completed projects that<br />
ended up not seeing the light of day in a real-life blues metaphor.<br />
However, with the release of the meticulously crafted new CD, recorded with a host of top-drawer players from acts like ELO,<br />
Ambrosia, Barry Manilow and others, Spires is back in the saddle.<br />
Visit jcspires.com. — John Sollenberger<br />
Music starts at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale. No cover. A full, no-host bar is included. Call (818) 243-2539 or<br />

ANTAEUS THEATRE COMPANY FOLLOWS ONE TOWN’S ROMANTIC TRAVAILS IN<br />
‘THREE DAYS IN THE COUNTRY’<br />
The Antaeus Theatre Company has built<br />
a strong reputation on the Los Angeles<br />
theater scene for creating innovative<br />
twists on classic plays. That approach is<br />
amply evident in their latest production,<br />
“Three Days in the Country,”<br />
which marks the West Coast debut of<br />
playwright Patrick Marber’s adaptation<br />
of Ivan Turgenev’s classic comedy “A<br />
Month in the Country,” running now<br />
through Aug. 26.<br />
Full of wit, folly and heart, the tale<br />
of unrequited passion unfolds over the<br />
course of three days in the sunny Russian<br />
countryside as men and women,<br />
both young and old, learn the tender and<br />
ridiculous lessons of love. Marber cut<br />
the length of Turgenev’s play down from<br />
a punishing four hours to a 135-minute<br />
version, while director Andrew Paul<br />
oversaw the hiring and rehearsals for 26<br />
actors filling 13 roles. That move built<br />
off an Antaeus tradition of doublecasting<br />
their plays to give more great<br />
local talent the chance to be seen in<br />
addition to helping alleviate the stress of<br />
its busiest actors as they build the stage<br />
production into their frequent shoots for<br />
film and TV projects.<br />
“It’s not as much about what’s different<br />
from the Turgenev play, but that<br />
it has a fresh sensibility about it,” says<br />
Nike Doukas, who shares the lead role<br />
24 PASADENA WEEKLY | <strong>07.05.18</strong><br />
BY CARL KOZLOWSKI<br />
of Natalya, the bored wife of a rich landowner,<br />
with Anna Khaja. “Turgenev was<br />
a playwright influenced by [playright<br />
Anton] Chekhov and has a Chekhovian<br />
feel to it: the people are wanting<br />
relationships but not getting what they<br />
want. I think it’s great when playwrights<br />
do adaptations of plays, it’s more of a<br />
take on a play than a literal translation<br />
and shows their point of view.”<br />
The fact that “Three Days” is doublecast<br />
also doubles the excitement over<br />
at Antaeus, where two opening nights<br />
will be performed this Thursday and<br />
Friday to give all the actors a chance to<br />
shine. The rest of the ensemble includes<br />
Antonio Jaramillo and Daniel Blinkoff as<br />
Arkady the landowner, who is yearned<br />
after by family friend Rakitin (Corey<br />
Brill and Leo Marks).<br />
When Belyaev (Will Bradley<br />
and Peter Mendoza) arrives to tutor<br />
Natalya’s young son, Kolya (Elijah<br />
Justice and Marcello Silva), Natalya falls<br />
in love with him — but so do both her<br />
ward, Vera (Chelsea Kurtz and Jeanne<br />
Syquia), and the servant, Katya (Ellis<br />
Greer and Lila Dupree). Meanwhile,<br />
Matvey (Jay Lee and John Bobek)<br />
loves Katya, Bolshintsov (Alberto<br />
Isaac and Gregory Itzin) pines after<br />
Vera, and the local doctor, Shpigelsky<br />
(Harry Groener and Armin Shimerman),<br />
hopes to marry Lizaveta (Dawn<br />
Didawick and Lily Knight). Also in the<br />
ensemble are Lorna Raver and Reba<br />
Waters Thomas as Arkady’s mother,<br />
Anna, and Marcelo Tubert and Patrick<br />
Wenk-Wolff as Schaaf, a German tutor.<br />
“What’s most interesting about the<br />
play is it’s written by Marber, who wrote<br />
‘Closer’ about love in the 20th century,<br />
and this is about love in the 19th<br />
century,” says director Andrew Paul.<br />
“I directed the American debut of the<br />
play in 2016 and this is the West Coast<br />
premiere. The original play is legendary<br />
for inspiring Chekhov to write for the<br />
theater, after just writing stories. I was<br />
always puzzled by that because I found<br />
it tedious and never really enjoyed it.<br />
“I met with Marber and after the<br />
success of ‘Closer’ the play and the<br />
movie, he said his family members were<br />
living in London and were nervous about<br />
raising kids in that environment due to<br />
terrorism,” Paul continues. “He became<br />
a gentleman farmer for seven years on<br />
a working farm and tapped into that<br />
experience in writing this.” n<br />
The Antaeus Theatre Company presents “Three<br />
Days in the Country” starting at 8 p.m. tonight<br />
and running through Aug. 26 at 110 E. Broadway,<br />
Glendale. Tickets are $15 for previews and $30 to<br />

JURASSIC WORLD:<br />
FALLEN KINGDOM<br />
Stars: Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard<br />
Length: 126 minutes<br />
Directed by: J.A. Bayona<br />
Rating: PG-13<br />
This edition of the second "Jurassic" trilogy<br />
still serves up plenty of relentless scares,<br />
but a total of five movies in, the idea of<br />
genetically engineered dinosaurs endangering<br />
humans is growing as old as the real-life<br />
beasts. Director Bayona has a lot of fun with<br />
the beasts rampaging through an essentially<br />
haunted house, but its stars don't have as<br />
much to do. Grade: B<br />
TAG<br />
Stars: Jeremy Renner, Ed Helms, Hannibal<br />
Buress, Jon Hamm<br />
Length: 100 minutes<br />
Directed by: Jeff Tomsic<br />
Rating: R<br />
Obnoxious, unfunny and utterly tone-deaf,<br />
this action-comedy rooted in the true-life<br />
misadventures of several middle-aged men<br />
who have been playing the same elaborate,<br />
stunt-driven game of tag since childhood<br />
should have been hilarious. A sad waste of<br />
some great comic talent, undercut further by<br />
terribly expository writing . Grade:F<br />
Big Laughs, Little Sting<br />
LACK OF VILLAINS MAKES ‘ANT-MAN AND THE WASP’ FEEL LIKE PUNCHES WERE PULLED<br />
One of the many refreshing qualities that have helped the Marvel<br />
superhero movies dominate the global box office over the<br />
past decade has been their strong sense of humor. Rather<br />
than merely being brooding and morose like the DC films such as<br />
“Man of Steel” and “Batman vs. Superman,” the Marvel Cinematic<br />
Universe (MCU) from “Iron Man” onward have infused their adventures<br />
with laughs from both witty lines and plot-driven moments.<br />
In 2015’s first “Ant-Man” movie, the comedy took precedence over<br />
superhero theatrics in focusing on the story of a cat burglar named<br />
Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) who had to find his inner hero and help his<br />
mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), pull off a heist that could<br />
save the world. Aside from hilarious dialogue, the film zipped along<br />
with highly original action set pieces centered upon Hank’s ability to<br />
make Scott gain more strength as he grew ever tinier.<br />
It was a combo that made that first film my personal favorite<br />
among the entire MCU, as I preferred the comedy and humanity of<br />
it and the fact it wove in the heist genre— including a colorful and<br />
diverse supporting cast of Scott’s fellow thieves — to great effect.<br />
All of these elements came together to create a film that thanks to<br />
Rudd’s affable performance was the most relatable of all the Marvel<br />
heroes.<br />
Now the sequel, “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” is coming out this<br />
weekend, and returning director Peyton Reed and his team of<br />
writers has amped up the comedy even more. They have also added<br />
Laurence Fishburne and Michelle Pfeiffer to the mix, with Fishburne<br />
playing a former colleague turned scientific rival of Pym’s and<br />
Pfeiffer playing Pym’s wife Janet and mother to their daughter, Hope<br />
(Evangeline Lilly).<br />
At the end of the first “Ant-Man,” it was revealed that Hank had<br />
managed to develop similar shrinking and strength powers for Hope<br />
and crafted a super-suit for her as The Wasp. In the new film, she’s<br />
been upgraded to a full-on co-star and sidekick of Scott.<br />
The mission is more personal this time, as Hank and Hope believe<br />
that Janet didn’t die amid an experimental trip into a quantum<br />
molecular state but rather merely became trapped in that parallel<br />
state of existence. Hank and Hope want to risk everything to find<br />
Janet and bring her back to the real world, with Scott jumping in on<br />
it despite the fact that he’s trapped by house arrest for violating his<br />
probation when he engaged in the superhero battle royale in “Captain<br />
America: Civil War.”<br />
Scott wants to help as a means of rebuilding his frayed friendship<br />
with Hank and rekindle his romance with Hope, but there are<br />
several bumps to contend with. An FBI agent (Randall Park) is<br />
relentlessly trying to prove that Hank is violating his house arrest, a<br />
mysterious figure called Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen) keeps showing<br />
up at the worst moments to fight them over access to the quantum<br />
realm, and a sleazy arms dealer (Walton Goggins) is determined<br />
to have Hank’s bridge to the quantum realm at all costs.<br />
Having to contend with all these challenges ensures that the<br />
film is relentlessly paced and never boring. Yet the fact that the<br />
arms dealer is a buffoon and Ghost turns out to have a surprisingly<br />
sympathetic reason to capture the bridge means that there’s not<br />
enough tension from villainy to really sustain viewer interest at a<br />
pitch-perfect level.<br />
Instead, “Ant-Man and the Wasp” proves to be a fun romp, but<br />
not one that’s completely compelling to blockbuster fans at the level<br />
of the “Avengers” movies. Rudd does a great job again and it’s fun<br />
to see Douglas getting a high-profile role in the twilight years of his<br />
career, but Pfeiffer barely gets any screen time in this go-round and<br />
her absence is glaring considering that her addition is being hyped.<br />
The biggest breakthrough in the film is Lilly, who proves to be<br />
slyly sexy in addition to engaging in plenty of inventive ass-kicking<br />
heroics. But the biggest star of all is the effects team, which might<br />
seem to be an obvious kudo to give in a superhero film, but when<br />
one considers that this movie includes giant Pez dispensers as<br />
weapons and Ant-Man turning into a 60-foot-tall menace to the arms<br />
dealer’s getaway boat, it is high praise indeed. n<br />

HEARTS BEAT LOUD<br />
Stars: Nick Offerman, Kiersey Clemons, Ted<br />
Danson, Toni Colette<br />
Length: 97 minutes<br />
Directed by: Brett Haley<br />
Rating: R<br />
A sweet story of a widower and his teenage<br />
daughter who create a hit song together just<br />
as she's about to go to a far-off college and<br />
have to decide whether to ride it out as a<br />
band or go their separate ways, this film is<br />
warm, human and touching - three qualities<br />
that are absent from most summer films. The<br />
song rocks and Haley films its creation in a<br />
breathtaking sequence. Grade:B<br />
WON'T YOU BE MY<br />
NEIGHBOR?<br />
Stars: Fred Rogers, Joanne Rogers,<br />
Betty Aberlin<br />
Length: 94 minutes<br />
Directed by: Morgan Neville<br />
Rating: PG-13<br />
This documentary on the life of TV legend<br />
Fred Rogers has a quiet power that<br />
sneaks up on viewers, as it reminds us<br />
that his seemingly simple "Mr. Rogers'<br />
Neighborhood" tackled heavy duty issues<br />
like war, divorce and racism. The fact that<br />
lifelong Republican minister Rogers helped<br />
push social progress is a touching reminder<br />
that we all need to work together to make the<br />
world a better place. Grade:A<br />

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING<br />
Notice of Public Hearing to Consider<br />
Single-Family Residential Design<br />
Guidelines and Review Process<br />
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In response<br />
to community concerns regarding the<br />
potential for “mansionization” in Pasadena,<br />
and at the direction of the City<br />
Council, the Planning & Community<br />
Development Department has undertaken<br />
a three-phase effort to revise<br />
development standards applicable to<br />
single-family dwellings. As the fi nal<br />
phase of this effort, and in order to<br />
ensure greater consistency and compatibility<br />
among single-family dwellings,<br />
the proposed project would create<br />
Single Family Residential Design<br />
Guidelines applicable to construction<br />
of a new single family dwelling, new<br />
second stories and second story additions,<br />
and signifi cant exterior alterations.<br />
Such projects would be subject<br />
to a new discretionary review process<br />
and involve public noticing.<br />
PROJECT LOCATION: All single-family<br />
residential properties that are not located<br />
within the Neighborhood Overlay<br />
District (Lower Hastings Ranch) or<br />
Hillside Overlay areas.<br />
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:<br />
The Planning Commission will consider<br />
whether adoption of the proposed<br />
Zoning Code Amendment is exempt<br />
from the California Environmental<br />
Quality Act under Section 15061(b)<br />
(3), under the general rule that CEQA<br />
applies only to projects which have<br />
the potential for causing a signifi cant<br />
effect on the environment. Where it<br />
can be seen with certainty that there<br />
is no possibility that the activity in<br />
question may have a signifi cant effect<br />
on the environment, the activity is not<br />
subject to CEQA.<br />
APPROVALS NEEDED: The Planning<br />
Commission will conduct a public<br />
hearing and consider the proposed<br />
amendments on July 25, 2018. The<br />
Planning Commission will forward its<br />
recommendation to the City Council.<br />
The City Council will make a fi nal decision<br />
on the proposed amendments at a<br />
separately-noticed public hearing.<br />
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the<br />
Planning Commission will hold a public<br />
hearing to receive input from the<br />
public and provide comments on the<br />
proposed Single-Family Residential<br />
Design Guidelines and review process,<br />
pertaining to single-family residential<br />
properties.<br />
