POLITICIANS & WAR<br />
With every passing year,<br />
politicians grow more confident<br />
in their ability to thrust<br />
Americans into another war,<br />
to make decisions that benefit<br />
themselves and not their constituents,<br />
and to increase their<br />
profits as the average American<br />
can hardly scrape by.<br />
Few politicians take a stand<br />
against this, to what has become<br />
the norm, and when they<br />
do, the mainstream media will<br />
either smear them or not cover<br />
them at all. It takes a soldierpresident<br />
to reverse this<br />
course. Fortunately, we have<br />
such a candidate right now.<br />

Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard recently kicked off her<br />
presidential campaign in Waikiki. A major in the Army National<br />
Guard, Gabbard, 37, did two tours of duty in the Middle East before<br />
being elected to Congress in 2012. She drew on that experience<br />
during her announcement.<br />
“These powerful politicians dishonor the sacrifices made by<br />
every one of my brothers and sisters in uniform and their families,<br />
as they are the ones who pay the prices of these wars,” she said.<br />
During her time in Congress, Gabbard has taken the now rare<br />
position of calling out and opposing the United States’ interventionist<br />
military policies. Gabbard further expressed that “every<br />
American pays the price for these wars that cost us trillions of<br />
dollars since 9/11.”<br />
Tulsi Gabbard has a history of taking a stand. In 2016 she resigned<br />

Committee to endorse Bernie<br />
Sanders, as the establishment<br />
Democrats and the mainstream<br />
media made an orchestrated<br />
attempt to push their candidate<br />
of choice, Hillary Clinton. It<br />
would seem history repeats<br />
itself. CNN has already effectively<br />
endorsed Kamala Harris,<br />
providing her with favorable<br />
coverage and a primetime town<br />
hall event.<br />
Over the years I’ve learned<br />
it’s best to first follow the<br />
money. Harris’ largest donor<br />
is Warner Media Group, the<br />
parent company of CNN. Tulsi<br />
Gabbard is a unique 2020 presidential<br />
candidate who is not<br />
taking corporate PAC money to<br />
fund her campaign. That means<br />
all of her funding must come<br />
from the people.<br />
I was 11 years old when<br />
John F. Kennedy delivered his<br />
inaugural address. His speech<br />
had a profound impact on my<br />
life when several years later<br />
I would volunteer to join the<br />
Marine Corps. Gabbard turned<br />
to those inspiring words when<br />
she said this: “I ask you to join<br />
me, in this spirit of putting<br />
service before self, to stand up<br />
against the forces of greed and<br />
corruption. Kennedy once said,<br />
‘Ask not what your country can<br />
do for you, but what you can do<br />
for your country.’ We must heed<br />
his call to action today, at this<br />
critical time in our history. We<br />
must stand up and fight for the<br />
soul of our country.”<br />
It is clear that we, as a nation,<br />
have forgotten the core<br />
principles of what America was<br />
meant to be. Gabbard’s words<br />
and deeds as a soldier and<br />
elected representative offer a<br />
glimmer of hope that she might<br />
be the right leader to help us all<br />
rediscover what it means to be<br />
an American.<br />
“When we raise our right<br />
hand and volunteer to serve, we<br />
set aside our own interests to<br />
serve our country, to fight for<br />
all Americans. It is this principle<br />
of service above self, that<br />
is at the heart of every soldier.<br />
At the heart of every service<br />
member.” She continued, “I will<br />
bring this soldier’s principles<br />
to the White House, restoring<br />
the values of dignity, honor<br />
and respect to the presidency<br />
and above all else, love for our<br />
people and love for our country.”<br />

•GUEST OPINION•<br />
BY EARL OFARI HUTCHINSON<br />
WEAPONS OF CHOICE<br />
WOULD IMPEACHMENT HELP RE-ELECT PRESIDENT TRUMP?<br />
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi seems to be of two<br />
minds.<br />
Pelosi has repeatedly said no to the idea<br />
of impeaching President Trump. She gravely<br />
warns that Trump is goading the opposition into<br />
impeaching him because he sees this as his ticket<br />
back to the White House in 2020. Impeachment,<br />
he believes, will fire up his base by allowing him<br />
to go into full-blown victim mode.<br />
But Pelosi then pivots and says that Trump<br />
must be held accountable. That seems to imply<br />
that impeachment is still on her agenda.<br />
The question that Pelosi correctly zeroes<br />
in on as other Democrats hound her to get the<br />
Nancy Pelosi<br />
impeachment show on the road is this: Will a<br />
House impeachment gambit help or hurt Trump<br />
more than it helps or hurts the Democrats?<br />
Polls show that, much like the House of Representatives itself, there are a lot<br />
of people who believe impeachment is a bad idea for Democrats. Polls also show<br />
that independents, who will be a big factor in the presidential election, also don’t<br />
really like the idea, even though a lot of them don’t like Trump.<br />
Trump can take his cues from what happened with President Bill Clinton.<br />
Clinton was impeached by the then-GOP-controlled House, but the then-<br />
Democrat-controlled Senate didn’t convict, and Clinton’s popularity numbers<br />
soared. If Clinton could have run for a third term in 2000 he almost certainly<br />
would have been re-elected.<br />
The issue must be framed this way for two practical reasons. One,<br />
impeachment will be almost exclusively a Democratic show in the House, since<br />
almost no House Republicans would ever back the effort. The other reason is<br />
that the GOP-controlled Senate would never vote to convict. So, if it’s a strictly<br />
partisan effort, it comes off as nothing more than a political stunt, or at best an<br />
empty gesture done purely to satisfy progressive Democrats.<br />
But what about the Democrats who hail from districts populated by anything<br />
but progressives? More than a handful of new House Democrats come from those<br />
districts, which are full of Republicans, independents, and centrist Democrats<br />
who want nothing to do with an impeachment move by their representatives.<br />
Such a battle would cause undue strain and give the GOP an opening to take<br />
back some of the seats they lost in 2018.<br />
However, here’s the reason why Pelosi is walking a tightrope on impeachment.<br />
A compelling case can be made that going after Trump with impeachment will<br />
energize Democrats. But would it actually do that? This is not a small concern,<br />
given that the Democratic presidential candidate field is way overloaded, with<br />
all of them struggling to find a unifying message that will stir enough Democrats<br />
to storm the polls in 2020. Is impeachment, with Democrats showing they aren’t<br />
afraid to fight for a principle despite the risks, that message?<br />
Pro-impeachment Democrats got a big boost when Special Counsel Robert<br />
Mueller implied that Trump had committed crimes, and that if not for the legal<br />
constraints of going after a sitting president he could have been indicted. Mueller<br />
punted but in the process practically invited Congress to go after Trump through<br />
the only means at its disposal, and that’s impeachment. At least, that’s the way<br />
a lot of Democrats are reading Mueller’s report, Pelosi among them. This is<br />
what’s behind her saying that he must be held accountable. But does being held<br />
accountable mean impeachment?<br />
The best bet for Democrats is booting Trump out of the White House at the<br />
polls. It won’t be easy. He will have a united GOP behind him, a king’s ransom<br />
in campaign cash, the fawning attention of mainstream media, his Twitter bully<br />
pulpit, and the appearance of a bustling economy to crow about. The worst thing<br />
to do now is to give him yet another weapon. Clearly Trump sees impeachment<br />
as that weapon. Many Democrats don’t. But if they’re wrong, it will help re-elect<br />
him. ■<br />

HIGH COURT BARS CITIZENSHIP QUESTION FROM APPEARING ON US CENSUS FORMS<br />
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN<br />
The US Supreme Court ruled last week that the Trump administration<br />
cannot include a question about citizenship on the<br />
2020 US Census form — for now.<br />
The controversy surrounds the administration’s plans to<br />
include the question, “Is this person a citizen of the United<br />
States?”<br />
Critics claim including the question could keep Latinos and<br />
other minorities from filling out the census, resulting in urban<br />
communities losing millions of dollars in federal funds and<br />
congressional seats.<br />
In a 5-4 ruling made along partisan lines, the deeply divided<br />
court ruled that while the government has the right to ask a<br />
citizenship question, it needs to justify its inclusion in the census.<br />
Siding with the court’s four liberal justices, Chief Justice John<br />
Roberts said that there was sufficient reason for concern about<br />
why the US Commerce Department wanted to add the question.<br />
“The sole stated reason seems to have been contrived,”<br />
Roberts wrote for the majority. “We are presented, in other words,<br />
with an explanation for agency action that is incongruent with<br />
what the record reveals about the agency’s priorities and decision<br />
making process.”<br />
The Trump administration has claimed that the question was<br />
added to collect more detailed citizenship data to better enforce<br />
part of the Voting Rights Act.<br />
After the June 27 ruling, President Trump called for a delay to<br />
the census until his lawyers could get more information about the<br />
question for future court proceedings.<br />
“Can anyone really believe that as a great country, we are not<br />
MAN OF HIS TIMES<br />
US DISTRICT JUDGE MANUEL<br />
REAL, WHO ORDERED BUSING<br />
IN PASADENA SCHOOLS IN<br />
1970, DIES AT AGE 95<br />
The day before US Sen.<br />
Kamala Harris slammed<br />
former Vice President<br />
Joe Biden in the Democratic<br />
presidential debate<br />
for his past positions<br />
against busing, US Central<br />
District Senior Judge<br />
Manuel L. Real, the man Manuel Real<br />
who forced the Pasadena<br />
Unified School District to implement busing,<br />
died at age 95.<br />
A cause of death was not immediately<br />
known. No memorial plans have been announced.<br />
Real’s controversial ruling was decided by<br />
the US Supreme Court and eventually came to<br />
define actions taken by school districts all over<br />
California in efforts to address a racial exclusion<br />
crisis occurring in public schools.<br />
“I am sad beyond words at the death of our<br />
beloved friend, colleague, mentor and leader,”<br />
said US Central Court Chief Judge Virginia A.<br />
Phillips in a prepared statement.<br />
“Judge Real has been the heart and soul of<br />
our district since it was formed in 1966 and his<br />
passing leaves an unfillable void for us, his family,<br />
the legal world and the larger community,”<br />
Phillips wrote. “His legacy of public service is an<br />
inspiration beyond compare.”<br />
On Jan. 20, 1970, Real ruled that the<br />
Pasadena Unified School District could not<br />
discriminate based on race and ordered that,<br />
“Commencing in September of 1970, there shall<br />
be no school in the District elementary or junior<br />
high or senior high school, with a majority of<br />
any minority students.”<br />
The ruling came in response to a lawsuit<br />
filed by local residents Jim and Bobbie Spangler,<br />
Wilton and Dorothy Clarke and Skipper and<br />
Pat Rostker.<br />
According to a 2007 article written by PW<br />
Editor Kevin Uhrich, racial issues in Pasadena<br />
went beyond segregation. The American Nazi<br />
Party had set up shop in nearby El Monte and<br />
the Southern-based White Citizens Council, a<br />
group whose members belonged to the Ku Klux<br />
Klan, tried to establish a foothold in Pasadena.<br />
In 1968 — the year that both Martin Luther<br />
King Jr. and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated<br />
— the Spanglers, along with the Rostkers and<br />
Clarkes, filed the federal lawsuit.<br />

ONE MORE STEP<br />
CITY REACHES PENULTIMATE STAGE<br />
OF MINIMUM RAISE INCREASE<br />
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN<br />
Pasadena’s minimum wage increased to $14.25 on Sunday,<br />
but local officials and business owners remain deeply divided<br />
on the impact of the city’s minimum wage.<br />
Some business owners claim the increases have had<br />
significant negative impacts on employment opportunities for<br />
people at the lower end of the pay scale.<br />
According to Pasadena Chamber of Commerce CEO Paul Little, fewer business<br />
owners are hiring teenagers during the summer due to the wage increase. Increasing<br />
the minimum wage was opposed by members of the chamber, who favored smaller<br />
pay hikes. Under that proposal, minimum wage would have increased to $12.50 by<br />
2020, and then stopped there.<br />
“Those who hire minimum-wage workers have cut back on hiring, reduced their<br />
workforce and demanded a higher level of skill and experience from people who are<br />
hired,” Little told the Pasadena Weekly. “We are also likely to see more places close as<br />
profitability becomes more and more difficult.”<br />
But Jon Pollard, Pasadena’s code compliance manager, who visits hundreds of<br />
Pasadena businesses every year, said so far he has not seen much negative impact.<br />
“I don’t think the city would say there have been any negative impacts based on the<br />
minimum wage increase,” Pollard said. “This is just me speaking, but I think it would<br />
be very hard to parse the reason for a business closing. Restaurants have a famously<br />
high closure rate in the first year.”<br />
In February, the Pasadena City Council reviewed the impacts of the minimum<br />
wage increases on reducing poverty, unemployment, job creation, and the overall<br />
business climate and voted to increase it to $14.25 this year and $15 in 2020.<br />
Beginning July 1, 2022 the local hourly wage will be adjusted annually by an<br />
amount equal to the expected increase in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County<br />
consumer price index for urban wage earners and clerical workers.<br />
But even at $15 an hour, it’s almost impossible for single minimum wage earners to<br />
live in Pasadena.<br />
The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Pasadena has risen more than<br />
51.7 percent in the past six years, with rents on some one-bedroom apartments<br />
totaling well over $2,000 a month. n<br />

BREEDERS’ CUP OFFICIALS VOTE<br />
TO KEEP RACE AT SANTA ANITA<br />
DESPITE FATALITIES<br />
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN<br />
Paul Little<br />
Despite injuries that have forced Santa Anita Park officials to<br />
Craig Fravel<br />
euthanize 30 horses since December, Breeders’ Cup board<br />
members said they would not move the race to Churchill Downs in Kentucky.<br />
The announcement came after the Breeders’ Cup’s 14-member board unanimously<br />
voted to keep its Nov. 1-2 championship races at the Arcadia racetrack.<br />
“Foremost among the core values of the Breeders’ Cup are the safety and integrity<br />
of the competition and we hold ourselves, our host sites and our competitors to the<br />
highest standards of both,” Craig Fravel, president and CEO of the Breeders’ Cup, said<br />
in a prepared statement. “It is clear that meaningful and effective reforms and best<br />
practices have been implemented in recent months at Santa Anita through the collective<br />
efforts of The Stronach Group (owners of the track), the Thoroughbred Owners<br />
of California, the California Thoroughbred Trainers, and the California Horse Racing<br />
Board.”<br />
Members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) praised the decision,<br />
primarily because more horses have died at Churchill Downs than at Santa Anita.<br />
“Who could possibly have thought that it was a good idea to move the Breeders’<br />
Cup from a track that is trying to stop the carnage to one with an even more shameful<br />
record of fatalities?” said PETA Senior Vice President Kathy Guillermo. “The Breeders’<br />
Cup board made the right decision. Now, it should disallow trainers with multiple<br />
medication violations from all races.”<br />
According to a report in USA Today, Churchill Downs does not publicly disclose its<br />
racing fatalities, but a spokesman for the track confirmed figures obtained through a<br />
public records request of the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission.<br />
Those records show that 43 horses were euthanized due to racing injuries since<br />
2016, a 2.42 per 1,000-start average that was 50 percent higher than the national average<br />
during the same three-year span.<br />
The deaths have rocked officials at Santa Anita. The park closed in March after<br />
the 21st horse died and put new safety protocols in place, including banning race day<br />
medication, increasing transparency of veterinary records, further regulating approval<br />
for workouts, and increasing reviews of the track’s surface.<br />
Some experts believe the injuries have been caused by an extra hard track created<br />
in response to this year’s above average rainfall.<br />
Earlier this week California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law a bill that gives<br />
the the California Horse Racing Board the power to suspend racing at any time should<br />
it see a safety issue for horses and riders. Newsom also added a veterinarian to the<br />
board. n<br />

able to ask whether or not someone is a citizen.<br />
Only in America!” Trump posted on Twitter.<br />
An undercount could be devastating for those<br />
areas. Population counts from the 2020 census<br />
will be used to determine how many congressional<br />
seats and Electoral College votes each state gets<br />
for the next decade. The data will also be used to<br />
help distribute nearly $900 billion in federal funding<br />
for such things as schools, roads and other public<br />
services.<br />
Pasadena and several other cities have been<br />
encouraging residents to participate in the census.<br />
Those cities have formed what are being called<br />
Complete Count Committees (CCCs) which seek out<br />
immigrant communities and encourage residents to<br />
participate in the census.<br />
Pasadena Mayor Terry Tornek, who chairs the<br />
local CCC, told the Pasadena Weekly that he was<br />
pleased and excited about the ruling.<br />
“We’ve already had a couple of meetings ,”<br />
Tornek said. “We are very concerned, because<br />
we know we were undercounted last time. It is<br />
much more daunting because of the climate of<br />
fear surrounding the census. We were desperately<br />
worried about this question. We have our hands<br />
full already and that was going to make it more<br />
challenging. I am excited. We allocated city funds,<br />
and have funds coming through the county. We have<br />
started lining up people and resources to get an<br />
accurate count.”<br />
Locally, the census is used to adjust and<br />
sometimes redraw local City Council and<br />
Pasadena Unified School District boundaries to<br />
ensure that the city is complying with federal<br />
voting rights laws.<br />
“We hope the federal government avoids taking<br />
any action that could dissuade residents from<br />
participating in the census count and adversely<br />
affect federal funding for vital services and<br />
programs they rely on,” said City Manager Steve<br />
Mermell. “City staff and community volunteers<br />
are undertaking efforts to support the work of the<br />
Census Bureau and achieve as accurate a count as<br />
possible for Pasadena.”<br />
In 1993, census data led to local political district<br />
lines being redrawn to create a district which<br />
increased voting opportunities for primarily Latino<br />
residents living in an enclave which later became<br />
District 5. This was an area of the city which the<br />
1990 census revealed was 27 percent Latino.<br />
“Here in our city, we have been working to<br />
ensure that all of our residents, the youngest to the<br />
oldest, are counted in the census, and the inclusion<br />
of the citizenship question would have presented<br />
a significant barrier to full participation,” said<br />
Vannia De La Cuba, field representative for District<br />
5 Councilman Victor Gordo. “Today’s SCOTUS<br />
decision was an important victory for all of us. An<br />
undercount would hurt all communities because<br />
the census data are crucial to ensuring equitable<br />
distribution of federal funds for a wide range of vital<br />
programs, including many programs that provide<br />
THE COUNT<br />
As of Monday, 4,142 days after the war in Afghanistan ended …<br />
2,248<br />
American military<br />
service members<br />
(2 more<br />

were reported<br />

people were killed in<br />

163 others were<br />
wounded. Also,<br />
Reuters reported<br />
70 bodies were<br />
recovered from<br />
mass graves.<br />
services for our community here in Pasadena.”<br />
The case was sent back to a New York court<br />
for further explanation from the administration,<br />
but officials with the Census Bureau claimed they<br />
needed to start printing the census forms by July 1.<br />
Federal judges there and in Maryland and<br />
California have already ruled against the<br />
administration’s proposal.<br />
“This is an incredibly hopeful decision,” said<br />
Rector Mike Kinman of All Saints Church, which<br />
has vehemently opposed Trump’s immigration<br />
policy and vowed to open its doors as a sanctuary<br />
for those who fear deportation during immigration<br />
raids.<br />
“A question has been effectively denied from<br />
the census that would result in taxation without<br />
representation for countless people of color, many<br />
of whom are part of our community. At least this<br />
morning, fear lost and justice won at the highest<br />
court in the land.”<br />
Kinman also pointed out that the decision in an<br />
example of how the nation is supposed to work.<br />
“The Judicial Branch recognized that the<br />
Executive Branch was trying to manipulate the<br />
Constitution for its own political ends and very<br />
clearly called it out and denied it that chance.”<br />
Six of the bureau’s former directors, who have<br />
served under both Democratic and Republican<br />
administrations, have warned that adding the<br />
citizenship question would jeopardize the accuracy<br />
of the population count.<br />
The Trump administration has maintained that<br />
the question was added to collect more detailed<br />
citizenship data to enforce part of the Voting Rights<br />
Act. The district court judges concluded that was<br />
not the real reason for the administration’s lastminute<br />
push for adding the question.<br />
In May, the daughter of deceased Republican<br />
operative Thomas Hofeller revealed that in 2015<br />
Hofeller conducted a private study and concluded<br />
that a citizenship question would decrease the<br />
political power of Latinos and “be advantageous<br />
to Republicans and Non-Hispanic Whites” in the<br />
redistricting process.<br />
Hofeller also surmised that employing<br />
citizenship data derived from the census would<br />
“provoke a high degree of resistance from<br />
Democrats and the major minority groups in the<br />
nation.”<br />
Hofeller later urged the Trump administration<br />
to adopt the question and worked with the<br />
administration to help craft its public legal<br />
argument that the Census Bureau needed<br />
citizenship data to better enforce the Voting Rights<br />
Act of 1965.<br />
Federal judges in California, New York and<br />
Maryland are aware of those documents along with<br />
the Supreme Court, according to the New Yorker.<br />
“If judicial review is to be more than an empty<br />
ritual, it must demand something better than the<br />
explanation offered for the action taken in this<br />
case,” Chief Justice Roberts wrote. n<br />

PASADENA CELEBRATES THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF<br />
THE APOLLO 11 LUNAR LANDING<br />
BY JANA J. MONJI<br />
In July, there will be many opportunities to celebrate the 50th anniversary of<br />
the Apollo 11 moon landing.<br />
NASA already has program lessons posted online for young<br />
students, some featuring that intrepid beagle Snoopy who has a long<br />
association with NASA. Online and on TV, PBS will begin its Summer of<br />
Space with new documentaries premiering as well as space-related encores.<br />
Two special screenings and celebrations will also help<br />
commemorate that one giant leap for mankind. As the NASA<br />
logo suggests, all are looking toward the Next Giant Leap.<br />
From July 5 to Aug. 11, the Rose Bowl will host a new 360-degree adventure,<br />
“Apollo 11: The Immersive Live Show,” which will feature an original story performed by a<br />
20-member ensemble inside a “Lunar Dome” containing 40,000 square feet of video projections<br />
that take visitors from the launch of the enormous Saturn V rocket to the moon. The Apollo 11<br />
presentation features life-sized rockets and expects to perform in 18 cities across the US for the<br />
next three years.<br />
For more information, visit RoseBowlStadium.com.<br />
Beginning on Monday, PBS’s “American Experience” features the three-part series “Chasing<br />
the Moon,” answering questions about being an astronaut. It also looks at diversity and sexism<br />
during the days of the Apollo mission, while reminding us of the period’s tumultuous political<br />
backdrop.<br />
Part One, “A Place Beyond the Sky,” features CBS Evening News Anchorman Walter Cronkite<br />
and other journalists describing how they attempted to bring what was essentially a “radio<br />
story” of disembodied voices with no visuals to the American public. The race to beat the Russians<br />
to the moon started under President John F. Kennedy, but Apollo 11 reached the moon<br />
under President Richard M. Nixon.<br />
Part Two on July 9, “Earthrise,” reveals a not-so-hidden figure, Frances “Poppy” Northcutt,<br />
and the tale of the first African-American astronaut candidate, Ed Dwight. To get the public behind<br />
the race to the moon, astronauts were used for public relations purposes. Although it was<br />
20 years before an African American would make it into space, Dwight, now a sculptor, raised<br />
the hopes of people around the world.<br />
At 25, Northcutt, was not an astronaut, but she still gained fame as the first woman in<br />
NASA’s flight control room.<br />
“What I remember most about Apollo 11 is that it was so very normal,” Northcutt recalled<br />
in a recent telephone interview. “When you’re simulating and planning for missions,<br />
you’re dealing with things that have gone wrong. The most surprising thing about Apollo<br />
11 was almost everything was going right.” As a contractor with TRW, Northcutt said,<br />
“All women at the time were swimming in the sea of sexism,” and while it still exists, “it’s<br />
“not as murky as it was then,”<br />
Being the only woman had some advantages, Northcutt admitted.<br />
“I got a lot of attention at the time, and even more attention now, 50 years later,” she<br />
said.<br />
Recently, Northcutt got a call from the Brazilian consulate in Houston, where<br />
she lives. She left TRW in 1984 to become an attorney and a civil rights advocate.<br />
During the Apollo missions, a little girl in Brazil was inspired by Northcutt and<br />
eventually grew up to become Dr. Rosaly M.C. Lopes, a senior research<br />
scientist at JPL and the editor-in-chief for the planetary science journal<br />
Icarus.<br />
As a pre-teen in Rio de Janeiro, “I grew up crazy about the Apollo<br />
program,” Lopes recalled. “Being Brazilian and a girl with terrible<br />
eyesight, I was not going to make it as an astronaut. Every time I saw<br />
anything about the Apollo program, it was all men.”<br />
Northcutt had helped to calculate the trajectory of the problem-<br />

THE NEXT GIANT LEAP<br />
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9<br />
plagued Apollo 13 mission. Lopes<br />
clipped small articles about her<br />
appearing in two Brazilian newspapers.<br />
“I became so inspired,”<br />
Lopes said.<br />
Although those articles have<br />
long been lost, and Lopes remembers<br />
them as being sexist, Lopes<br />
searched for Northcutt over the<br />
years because Northcutt was “like<br />
a beacon.”<br />
A casual conversation with a<br />
writer brought the two into contact<br />
and Northcutt will meet with<br />
Lopes this month at JPL. Northcutt<br />
noted one of the reasons she<br />
left TRW was budget cuts. The<br />
race to the moon was won, but<br />
society had changed.<br />
Part Three of “Chasing the<br />
Moon,” “Magnificent Desolation,”<br />
takes its title from Buzz Aldrin as<br />
both his description of the lunar<br />
surface and the title of his second<br />
autobiography. After Apollo 11, the astronauts were no longer heroes. During his<br />
public relations tours, Frank Borman (Apollo 8 and Gemini 7) recalled going to<br />
Cornell campus was “like going into an enemy camp.” Protests against Vietnam<br />
labeled [President] Nixon a war criminal, but there were also some questionable<br />
figures working at NASA such as ex-SS officer Wernher von Braun.<br />
While most of the action for Apollo 11 was away from the Pasadena area, JPL<br />
did have a role leading up to the Apollo program. JPL developed two robotic series<br />
of spacecraft: the Rangers and the Surveyors. The Rangers were like the safety<br />
crash test part of the moon landing program. The Rangers were meant to intentionally<br />
collide into the moon and provide images of the surface and the approaching<br />
impact. Ranger 7 was the first to work properly, hitting the moon on July 31, 1964.<br />
Two more would evemtually reach the moon.<br />
The seven robotic Surveyors were “soft landers” and the first vehicles to operate<br />
on the moon. They provided information about the strength and composition<br />
of the lunar surface (1966-68). Apollo 12 astronauts brought back Surveyor 3’s<br />
camera in 1969. The information from these two spacecraft series helped the Eagle<br />
land. Once the Eagle that landed on the moon returned to Earth, Caltech raced to<br />
analyze the lunar samples and answer questions about the moon’s composition for<br />
scientists and researchers around the world.<br />
JPL and Caltech will be hosting two free panels. JPL documentarian Blaine<br />
Baggett will speak on the Ranger and Surveyor missions, former JPL Chief Scientist<br />
Arden Albee will talk about lunar samples, and former JPL Chief Engineer<br />
John Casani will talk about JPL and Caltech’s role in supporting the lunar landing.<br />
Moderated by JPL Science Communications Specialist Preston Dyches, the free<br />
90-minute lectures, “Moon Struck! Celebrating Apollo’s 50th Anniversary,” are at<br />
7 p.m. Thursday, July 11 at The Von Kármán Auditorium at JPL (4800 Oak Grove<br />
Drive, Pasadena) and at 7 p.m. Friday, July 12, at Caltech’s Ramo Auditorium (1200<br />
E. California Blvd. Pasadena). No reservations or tickets are required.<br />
On Monday, July 15, the California Science Center will open a special giantscreen<br />
edition of Todd Douglas Miller’s “Apollo 11” documentary on the immersive<br />
7-story IMAX screen. The center will host a special day-long event on July 20, with<br />
exhibits of Gemini and Apollo space capsules, Apollo era space suits, a Ranger<br />
space craft and a lunar sample. JPL will be onsite with a custom portable planetarium,<br />
a special live, interactive and immersive presentation about space science<br />
complete with an expert to answer questions. For more information, visit CaliforniaScienceCenter.org.<br />
Now, as the 50th anniversary logo signifies by including the moon and Mars,<br />
NASA astronauts will return to the moon but in preparation for a trip to Mars. The<br />
first woman and the next man are scheduled to make a moon landing in 2024. JPL,<br />
with its Rover program, has already been paving the way and will be providing<br />
even more information about Mars with its Rover 2020.<br />
PBS’s “Nova” premieres a five-part series, “The Planets,” on July 24 (Check<br />
local listings). A press preview of its Mars episode included JPL’s Deputy Project<br />
Scientist Leslie Tamppari, MSL Project Scientist Ashwin R. Vasavada and John P.<br />
Grotzinger, Caltech’s Fletcher Jones Professor of Geology.<br />
By remembering the last Giant Leap, you can prepare for the Next Giant Leap<br />
from the moon to Mars and Pasadena will be an essential part of that exciting new<br />
chapter in space. ■<br />

PENNY OVEN AND SIBLINGS OFFER<br />
A NEW TAKE ON CAFÉ CULTURE<br />

It is incredible how cyclical life can be. Last June I wrote about the then<br />
newly opened Piencone Pizzeria in Eagle Rock, a spot I have revisited<br />
several times since, which has undergone its own evolution. Nearly a year<br />
later, the team behind Piencone and Four Cafe have furthered their conquest<br />
of the Eagle Rock stretch of Colorado Boulevard by opening up a third<br />
restaurant — Penny Oven.<br />
The through line at all of Chef Michelle Wilton’s Eagle Rock eateries<br />
is family. Four Cafe, the first-born of the trio and open since 2009, is a<br />
sandwich, burger and salad joint all based around organic and sustainable,<br />
locally grown ingredients. Essentially, it’s like a farmers’ market where one<br />
person took all the best ingredients from the stands and made a fast-casual<br />
menu from all of it. Tables are adorned with mason jars holding napkins, or<br />
serving as small buckets of silverware.<br />
Wilton’s middle child, Piencone, opened in 2018 and is the rebel of the trio.<br />
The pizza, pub, and ice cream shop was the anti-Shakey’s and a godsend to<br />
parents who missed eating at restaurants that didn’t use vinyl sheeting as<br />
tablecloths. With their elevated wood-fired pizzas and an entire dining room<br />
dedicated to families with a play area and ample room for movement for<br />
squirrely little ones to roam, families are able to enjoy a regular meal.<br />
Fulfilling the stereotype of the youngest child, Penny Oven takes the<br />

best features of the older siblings and some special<br />
qualities and melds them into a new persona. (Full<br />
disclosure: I am the youngest child in my family.)<br />
Penny Oven continues the same wood aesthetic<br />
as its elder siblings. From Four Cafe, Penny<br />
Oven takes on baked goods and breakfast. From<br />
Piencone, it carries over the wood-fired oven. But<br />
because it had to set itself apart from its elders<br />
Penny Oven could not just have a plain wood-fired<br />
oven. Taking it one level further, and true to its<br />
name, it is covered in thousands of real pennies.<br />
Perhaps as an homage to Piencone, Penny Oven also<br />
has a play area for little ones so that parents may<br />
enjoy their coffee while their children play in the<br />
small nook underneath the staircase.<br />
Penny Oven is building its own identity with<br />
breakfast, coffee and lunches. Keeping that home<br />
style feeling that sets Wilton’s family of restaurants<br />
apart, nearly everything on the menu is made inhouse,<br />
from all of the breads to the almond milk<br />
used in the coffee, it is all created right there.<br />
It is not a coffee and laptop, get-work-done cafe.<br />
Instead, it's more of a casual date cafe, or a spot for<br />
the couple in their mid-30s that reminisces about<br />
the days of bottomless mimosa brunches yet now<br />
have their toddlers in tow.<br />
Effortlessly simple, Penny Oven’s menu is broken<br />
down into the refreshingly noncomplex categories<br />
of toasts, sweets, plates, sides, and kids. There<br />
is also a bakery display case filled with an everchanging<br />
assortment of baked goods to ponder over<br />
and test your self-control as you wait in line.<br />
One highlight is the toast menu does not feature<br />
avocado toast or any variation of the millennial<br />
kryptonite. Rather, Penny Oven does some more<br />
adventurous takes on their homemade breads. The<br />
croque toast ($10) comes with mushrooms, spinach,<br />
caramelized leeks and bechamel sauce.<br />
The croissant sandwich ($8) takes the iconic<br />
donut store ham and cheese croissant flavors,<br />
sends them to charm school, and the result is Penny<br />
Oven’s croissant sandwich; a ham and gruyere<br />
omelet on their house croissant with a blood orange<br />
marmalade. The ham has a subtle spice, the eggs<br />
are rich and creamy, and the marmalade enhances<br />
the flavors perfectly. Despite my doubts about<br />
sometimes bitter blood orange, it works beautifully<br />
here.<br />
The kid’s menu at Penny Oven really stands out<br />
for the level of care and detail in the options and<br />
ingredients not oft seen. For one of the first times, I,<br />
a childless adult male, seriously considered ordering<br />
off of the kid’s menu.<br />
The pink dragon smoothie ($5) is a hot pink<br />
concoction of pitaya, spinach, blueberries, banana<br />
and apple juice and a super clever way to get your<br />
little one to consume vegetables. Even the minime<br />
pancakes ($5) are made with buckwheat, oats,<br />
bananas and spinach before they are topped with<br />
blueberries and maple syrup.<br />
For fear of heart palpitations I was not able to<br />
try every coffee on the menu, but since I went on<br />
one of our sweltering mornings I was able to try one<br />
of Penny Oven’s iced coffees. The hemp cacao iced<br />
coffee ($4.50) is made with the titular ingredients<br />
and flavored with coconut oil, vanilla and maple<br />
syrup, brought all together with their homemade<br />
almond milk. Simultaneously refreshing and<br />
caffeinated, it is one of my favorite coffee drinks<br />
offered in the area. The freshness of the almond<br />
milk is clear by the rich flavor and lack of fully<br />
machinated smoothness.<br />
Only open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily, Penny<br />
Oven is perfectly poised for both the on-your-wayto-work<br />
pickup or the easy, breezy brunch. All<br />
of Wilton’s restaurants have held to a Matthew<br />
McConaughey level of effortlessly cool, relaxed<br />
dining, but Penny Oven really seals the deal on the<br />
natural and relaxed atmosphere. It’s summertime.<br />
Treat yourself to a visit for brunch or a light lunch<br />
and a crafted beverage. I promise you’ll catch those<br />
vacay vibes.<br />

my grandparents. Since I was so young when she died, I have very little memory<br />
of my mom. I honestly didn’t have very strong feelings about her, until now.<br />
Five months ago I gave birth to a baby girl and to me she is the most precious<br />
little human being in the world. I’d always heard parents say that the love for a<br />
child is like no other, but it wasn’t until I had my daughter that I truly understood.<br />
Now that I’m a mother myself, I keep having all these thoughts about my own<br />
mother. How could she have left me? I can’t imagine leaving my child motherless,<br />
and especially never by choice. For the first time I wonder what my life would have<br />
been like if my mom had lived. If she really loved me and my father, how could she<br />
kill herself? Why would anyone want to commit suicide when they have people<br />
who love them and want to help them?<br />
Please, if you can shed some light on the subject, maybe I can better understand<br />
what my mom was thinking and finally move on.<br />
— Daisy<br />
Dear Daisy,<br />
Even though it was a long time ago, I’m very sorry about your loss and that you<br />
never got the chance to know your mother. Unfortunately, many loved ones struggling<br />
to find solace share your frustration of seeking answers to unanswerable questions.<br />
Each suicide or suicide attempt is complicated with individualized layers of issues.<br />
While you may never know what your mother was experiencing, I don’t believe that<br />
she wanted to leave you. She just didn’t know how to live with her emotional pain.<br />
When I work with patients and they talk about suicidal feelings, I’m fully aware<br />
that they could follow through with the self-destructive act of suicide. That doesn’t<br />
necessarily mean they actually want to take their physical life away. Rather, they<br />
want to put an end to the pain they feel. When someone is pushed to a breaking point<br />
with unbearable dark emotions, they may feel that suicide is the only way to stop their<br />
agony.<br />
Sometimes there does need to be a death for a rebirth to occur, but it doesn’t have<br />
to be a literal death. It’s the job of the therapist and the patient to work together to<br />
identify what has to change so that new life can occur and thoughts of suicide can<br />
cease. I look at suicidal ideation (thoughts/fantasies about suicide) as a wake-up call<br />
for change. If a patient believes there is no hope that is when they are most at risk.<br />
No baby is born wanting to harm itself. When someone considers suicide, it stems<br />
from trauma, abuse, mental illness, or a combination of these. If a patient describes<br />
a particularly violent means of committing suicide, it is termed “self-murder.” It<br />
reflects a homicidal rage that has built up within, is repressed, and becomes maladaptive<br />
against the self. At that point one may be so filled with despair and rage<br />
against themselves that they believe their loved ones are better off without them. It’s<br />
the task of therapy to help the patient experience this inner rage without becoming<br />
self-destructive. For example, if someone fantasizes about shooting herself, I can help<br />
her acknowledge who it is that she really wants to shoot, and process that rage in a<br />
healthy way.<br />
Much remains to be learned on the science of suicide and the influences of such<br />
factors as social and moral forces, genetics, substance abuse, depression, schizophrenia,<br />
and other personality disorders. In 2018 the World Health Organization reported<br />
that an estimated 1 million people worldwide die from suicide each year, that there<br />
is one death by suicide every 40 seconds, and they predict that by 2020 the rate will<br />
increase to one every 20 seconds.<br />
The late Dr. Edwin Shneidman, a renowned pioneer in the field of suicide who<br />
founded the Los Angeles Suicide Prevention Center, once said, “I still believe it’s critical<br />
to look at personal stories, emotional circumstances, and private histories in the<br />
study of suicide, not just the biology and pharmacology of suicide and depression.” He<br />
further adds, “I believe that suffering is at the heart of every suicide. If I were to do it<br />
all over again, I would probably study love.” ■<br />

DWAYNE COLBERT’S SKETCH<br />
COMEDY SHOW ‘SHADE’ TAKES<br />
A BITINGLY SATIRICAL LOOK<br />
AT RACE RELATIONS<br />
BY CARL KOZLOWSKI<br />
The state of race relations in America is hardly a laughing<br />
matter under normal circumstances, with bitter<br />
divisiveness manifesting everywhere from the ugly<br />
white supremacist rallies of Charlottesville, Virginia to the<br />
contentious exchanges between presidential candidates Kamala<br />
Harris and Joe Biden at the recent Democratic debate.<br />
Nonetheless, Pasadena-based writer-actor Dwayne Colbert<br />
decided to take a stab at a satirical sketch show on the topic<br />
called “Shade,” and the hard work has paid off with critical<br />
acclaim and two extensive runs so far this year, including<br />
the current one at 10 p.m. Saturdays at the Second City<br />
theater in Hollywood.<br />
The daringly hilarious show features a large and<br />

ethnically diverse cast of 12, with strong<br />
representation of all four major American<br />
ethnicities: Caucasian, African-American,<br />
Asian-American and Latino. Building off<br />
the intriguing question “What if you could<br />
be someone else, just for one day?” the<br />
original musical comedy (with songs by<br />
Hughie Stone Fish) sets the stage “for a doppelganger<br />
switcheroo that goes way, way<br />
beyond skin-deep differences.”<br />
“I had written a full-on musical comedy<br />
for Second City called ‘Afros and Ass<br />
Whoopins’ about police brutality,” says Colbert,<br />
who is African-American while Stone<br />
Fish is Caucasian. “That was so successful<br />
even LA Weekly and LA Magazine ran<br />
stories about it, and it got three extensions<br />
and ran for a year and a half. The Second<br />
City producers trusted me to not only teach<br />
there and coach house teams for sketch<br />
and improv, but asked me to create another<br />
show.<br />
“It took two years to write ‘Shade,’<br />
because there was some pressure after ‘Afros’<br />
to decide what else we wanted to talk<br />
about,” adds Colbert. “Everyone’s got hangups<br />
with race, and I always loved switcheroo<br />
comedies like ‘The Prince and the Pauper’<br />
and ‘Freaky Friday.’ So I thought, ‘What<br />
if Rachel Dolezal got her wish to be black<br />
and Stacey Dash got her wish to be white?<br />
What if they got the other experience but<br />
the way that each race wanted them to experience<br />
the other, the harsh realities?’ The<br />
idea was to look at how life is as a white<br />
person but through black people’s eyes, and<br />
vice versa.”<br />
Colbert had previously teamed with<br />
Stone Fish on “Afros,” drawing the inspiration<br />
to work with the “Jewish guy from<br />
Syracuse” after learning that the classic<br />
race-related song “Strange Fruit” by Billie<br />
Holiday was “based on a poem by a Jewish<br />
school teacher.” Realizing that many<br />
Caucasians in America were involved in<br />
the struggle to improve race relations, he<br />
decided to partner with Stone Fish to gain a<br />
perspective from both of the major sides in<br />
the racial divide.<br />
On both “Afros” and “Shade” the duo<br />
worked at first from an outline rather<br />
than a finished script, with key emotional<br />
moments driving the narrative despite the<br />
majority of each show being bold satire.<br />
Before writing the songs for “Afros,” Stone<br />
FIsh did a lot of research to understand the<br />
mindsets of both police officers and black<br />
families who had negative experiences<br />
with them, by interviewing both sides. With<br />
“Shade,” he interviewed members of all the<br />
races portrayed.<br />
“Once we have a great script and songs,<br />
the other major thing is picking a cast of actors<br />
who can come in and work magic on the<br />
fly,” says Colbert, referring to the fact that a<br />
much larger ensemble of actors rotate turns<br />
in the show’s roles. “Their professionalism to<br />
come in and pick it up off a recording of the<br />
show 24 hours before they hit stage for the<br />
first time is incredible.<br />
“It’s not normal to switch so often, but<br />
we’re running in the summer when people<br />
are doing more things all over in their lives,”<br />
he adds. “We go for singing ability first on<br />
‘Shade,’ and then acting is secondary. With<br />
‘Afros,’ it was the opposite.”<br />
Colbert graduated from UC Davis —<br />
“Surprisingly with a math degree, considering<br />
I’m a writer and director now” — after<br />
growing up in South Central Los Angeles<br />
throughout his childhood. He first experienced<br />
Pasadena at 18, when his parents<br />
reunited after a six-year separation and<br />
moved to the Crown City together.<br />
“My parents lived there a long time until<br />
they retired and moved away to the South,”<br />
says Colbert, who also has a created a<br />
digital video series called “Brainwashed By<br />
Toons” that is about to debut on the Funny<br />
Or Die website. “I’m married, have my kids,<br />
and I just love the area. All my friends I live<br />
and work with in Hollywood are fascinated<br />
I live there. But to me it’s a normal drive of<br />
20 minutes away, and no skyscrapers, so it<br />
feels like a college town, I love it. I take my<br />
little boys around in Radio Flyer wagons to<br />
coffee shops.” n<br />
“Shade” runs at 10 p.m. Saturdays through Aug. 17 at<br />

JOSHUA TREE FAVORITE GENE EVARO JR. BRINGS HIS<br />
FUNKY SOUL TO ONE COLORADO WEDNESDAY<br />
Back in the ’90s, when “da<br />
Soup” was bubbling warmly<br />
through live music venues in<br />
Old Town and greater Pasadena,<br />
Gene Evaro Jr. would have fit right<br />
in.<br />
A scion of the sprawling, multigenerational<br />
Evaro clan of musicians<br />
and singers renowned in the<br />
Joshua Tree-Palm Springs desert<br />
region, Evaro Jr. resides in JT and<br />
projects that creative community’s<br />
tribal vibe of funky love vibrations<br />
and good times. His immediate<br />
musical family includes sisters<br />
Gabrielle and Shavaughn, who performed<br />
with him in popular family<br />
band Evaro (whose self-titled 2010<br />
album closed with a hummed and<br />
strummed “Ode to Natalie,” for a<br />
sister who had died), and who have<br />
also backed him in his Gene Evaro<br />
Jr. & the Family lineup. Their father,<br />
Gene Evaro Sr., a lifelong musician<br />
and producer, toured with the likes<br />
of the Temptations and Ike & Tina<br />
Turner.<br />
Evaro Jr. comes across as a<br />
bohemian free spirit, but behind<br />
that everybody-come-together<br />
persona lie solid chops; he’s been<br />
playing keyboards, composing and<br />
programming since childhood, and<br />
his extended guitar solos nod to<br />
influences like Prince and Derek<br />
Trucks. A favorite at the annual<br />
Joshua Tree music festival, he’s a<br />
smooth showman onstage, encouraging<br />
audiences to sing along and<br />
dance to lighthearted jams like<br />
“Charlie Moan,” “California is Burning,”<br />
“Hustlin’,” “Love Awakening,”<br />
and “Soul (How I Keep Movin On),”<br />
whose silky harmonies and sensual<br />
grooves suggest Marvin Gaye after<br />
40 days in the desert. Songs like<br />
recent single “Loving You” (a showcase<br />
for him and bassist gal pal Piper<br />
Robison) and “Smile” stick with<br />
standard R&B romance (“Go ahead<br />
and smile, girl, it looks good on<br />
you”). “We Don’t Need to Be Sold”<br />
blends a reggae-kissed message of<br />
unity and protest with family faith<br />
and stinging leads before torquing<br />
into a serious guitar-horn jam:<br />
“We don’t need to be high<br />
We don’t need to sold<br />
We don’t need to be saved<br />
We don’t need to be told<br />
We just wander around with our<br />
God-given love”<br />
He celebrated his birthday with<br />
a show at Pappy & Harriet’s in Pioneertown<br />
last week before playing<br />
the super groove High Sierra Music<br />
Festival on the Fourth, and he’s hitting<br />
the road later this month with<br />
his band for a string of summer<br />
tour dates through the West. First,<br />
though, he’s warming up with a duo<br />
or trio in One Colorado’s courtyard<br />
Wednesday night. n<br />
Wine Wednesday hosts Gene Evaro Jr.<br />
at One Colorado, 41 Hugus Alley, Old<br />
Pasadena, 7-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, July<br />

MIKE MANN & COWBOY SOUL OFFER THEIR<br />
TAKE ON DIVERGENT GENRES<br />
TAKE A LITTLE COUNTRY, THEN ADD A DASH OF SOUL AND YOU HAVE MIKE<br />
MANN & COWBOY SOUL, PERFORMING SUNDAY AT THE ROSE.<br />
Mann, lead vocalist, guitarist, harmonica player and songwriter, launched the group<br />
as Mike Mann & The Nightriders. The native of the Mississippi River city of Clinton,<br />
Iowa, now based in LA is one of the rare examples of a black cowboy music act. After<br />
changing the name to Mike Mann & Country Soul, the band picked up steam.<br />
Early in life, he developed a love for harmonica and guitar, and also worked for some<br />
years as a radio personality at various places around the country. He learned about the<br />
cowboy connection to the black community after reading the book, “The Black West”<br />
by William Katz.<br />
The band offers an innovative take on the divergent genres and makes it work.<br />

A crisp showcase of the Canadian gypsy blues<br />

A.W. Cardinal growls like Tom Waits and quotes<br />

Devon Allman, Duane Betts and Berry Oakley Jr.<br />
proudly recall their fathers’ blues-soul-rock style, if<br />

Rocker “All Night” and an emotive cover of Tom<br />
Petty’s “Southern Accents” claim their generation<br />
and roots-spanning heritage. Compositionally it’s<br />
more reassuring than challenging; fans may hunger<br />
for more of Johnny Stachela’s slide or the doubleguitar<br />
spark of “Shinin’,” or jams like the “Melissa”-<br />
evoking one stretching Charles Williams’ “Autumn<br />
Breeze” well past eight minutes. Allman’s throaty<br />
baritone contrasts strikingly with Betts’ reedier<br />
vocals and they play with familiar warmth, like a<br />
band with nothing to prove. allmanbettsband.com<br />

Knaves and Thieves (Korda): HHHH<br />
Cue up these Pennsylvania veterans if you’re<br />
jonesing for a smart dream-pop fix. “All the Way<br />
Blue” and the thrumming “Paraguay My Love”<br />
sound as hopeful as “Sublime” from 1992’s<br />
“Beneath the Rhythm and Sound” or 1996’s<br />
transporting “See.” A hooky guitar riff and pulsing<br />
synth buoy the dark title track (“I feel like the world<br />
could end/ In a flash/ No more to depend on the<br />
things I thought were to last”), while frontman<br />
David Schelzel’s rueful wit surfaces during “Therein<br />
Lies the Problem With My Life.” RIYL the Smiths,<br />
War on Drugs. theoceanblue.com<br />
CHARLIE CHAPLIN, Film Music Anthology<br />
(PIAS): HHHH<br />
Sixty-seven tracks of music from silent film icon<br />
Charlie Chaplin’s decades-spanning oeuvre.<br />
A handful feature vocals, including still-timely<br />
speeches from 1940’s anti-fascist “Great Dictator”<br />
and 1947’s “Monsieur Verdoux.” But the music’s<br />
winsome escapism charms unadorned; listen to<br />
the romantic clarinet and violin solos composed<br />
by Chaplin for 1931’s “City Lights”; the horn- and<br />
string-stoked exuberance of “Jazz” from 1919’s<br />
“A Day’s Pleasure”; the pop-parodying “Mandolin<br />
Serenade” from 1957’s “A King in New York”; and<br />
the dramatic orchestration of “Smile” from 1936’s<br />
“Modern Times.” It sparkles most when, like<br />
Chaplin’s expressive Tramp, it’s free from words.<br />

SATURDAY NIGHT.<br />
Rawls (no relation to Lou Rawls) came from Mississippi, the home of hurts-so-good music. After gaining a love for the music<br />
as a child by listening to his grandfather play, he began performing professionally while still in high school. He soon graduated<br />
into playing with stars, including Joe Tex and the Sweet Inspirations.<br />
Honing his skills, Rawls became band director for O.V. Wright, then led Little Johnny Taylor’s band, finally going solo in 1985.<br />
Rawls has produced, written, served as horn arranger, guitarist and keyboardist for a variety of artists. He’s performed at<br />
major events in the US and internationally, winning various awards along the way.<br />

MUSE/IQUE KICKS OFF ITS SUMMER SEASON SATURDAY WITH MOVIE TRIBUTE<br />
SHOW ‘MOVING/PICTURES’<br />
There are plenty of great traditions in<br />
every SoCal summer, from cookouts<br />
and beach trips to Dodger games and<br />
concerts. But Pasadena has its own<br />
sources of musical magic, including<br />
MUSE/IQUE, an orchestra which combines<br />
classical music with jazz, pop<br />
and an assortment of dance troupes<br />
each year for an exciting three-show<br />
season of fun.<br />
This year’s theme for the series<br />
— held at the Huntington Library, Art<br />
Collections and Botanical Gardens —<br />
is “Music in Motion,” and it kicks off<br />
Saturday with a show titled “Moving/<br />
Pictures.”<br />
Playing off the idea that “a ticket to<br />
the movies has always been a ticket to<br />
our wildest dreams,” the show features<br />
some of the most popular tunes from<br />
classic movies and also boasts a<br />
performance by three-time Tony Award<br />
nominee Joshua Henry.<br />
“We were inspired largely by The<br />
Huntington, because when I walk<br />
among their world famous plantings and<br />
paintings, I am struck by the fact that<br />
these fixed objects, lovingly preserved,<br />
move people on a global scale and their<br />
inspiration will surely transform hearts<br />
not yet born,” says MUSE/IQUE founder<br />
and conductor Rachael Worby. “I think<br />
BY CARL KOZLOWSKI<br />
of The Huntington as a place that spins<br />
the globe, and I think of music the same<br />
way.<br />
“We begin the series with this<br />
exploration of the art of the film score<br />
as an interplay between music, motion,<br />
character and ideas,” she adds. “But<br />
we also go beyond the film score to<br />
examine all sorts of images that move<br />
us, and we imagine together the music<br />
that comes to mind when we encounter<br />
beautiful imagery. Because it is the<br />
weekend of Independence Day, we will<br />
be paying particular homage to the moving<br />
images and music that underpin the<br />
American Spirit.”<br />
One major element of Saturday’s<br />
show will be “the art of John Williams.”<br />
The famed composer has 51 Oscar<br />
nominations and his score for “Star<br />
Wars” was named by the American Film<br />
Institute as the greatest American film<br />
score of all time, but Worby is keeping<br />
things interesting by spotlighting some<br />
of his lesser-known but still compelling<br />
works.<br />
“Any program focused on the<br />
way music and images work together<br />
must include the original genius of the<br />
genre,” says Worby. “In so many ways,<br />
Williams invented the way our imagination<br />
works today. We will be playing<br />
scores not frequently featured in John<br />
Williams tribute evenings, such as his<br />
scores for “Lincoln” and “Memoirs of a<br />
Geisha.” We’re interested in illuminating<br />
the way he builds characters<br />
through music.<br />
“We will also be performing songs<br />
that define certain eras and feelings<br />
within America, and yet seem to have<br />
the timeless ability to move us forward,”<br />
adds Worby. “These include ‘Soliloquy’<br />
from ‘Carousel,’ Gershwin’s ‘Summertime,’<br />
and the Louis Armstrong standby<br />
‘What a Wonderful World.’”<br />
The next show of the season is<br />
“Train/Glory” (which pays tribute to<br />
trains from the Transcontinental Railroad<br />
to toy trains) on Aug. 3, with guest<br />
soprano Liv Redpath and the dance<br />
troupe Body Traffic. The third and<br />
final show is “Band/Together,” which<br />
features the American Ballet Theatre<br />
and the “daring piano duo” Anderson<br />
and Roe to pay homage to the idea that<br />
music can move people together in a<br />
way that creates a divine outcome. n<br />
MUSE/IQUE performs “Moving/Pictures” at 8<br />
p.m. Saturday at the Huntington Library, Art<br />
Collections and Botanical Gardens, 1151 Oxford<br />
Road, San Marino. Tickets are $50 to $130. Call<br />

BY CARL KOZLOWSKI<br />
Making Dreams Happen<br />
‘WILD ROSE’ IS A STORY OF REDEMPTION,<br />
FAMILY AND THE ABILITY TO CHANGE<br />
Jessie Buckley and Sophie Okonedo in “Wild Rose“<br />
With the Fourth of July being celebrated this<br />
week, what better time than to think about<br />
the American Dream? The idea of pursuing<br />
life, liberty and happiness enshrined in the Declaration<br />
of Independence itself, along with the idea that you can<br />
make any dream happen if you just work hard enough.<br />
In the new movie “Wild Rose,” a young and wild<br />
single mother of two named Rose-Lynn dreams of<br />
being a country singer. But she’s got a few obstacles in<br />
the way, including the fact that she lives in Glasgow,<br />
Scotland, and is fresh out of a year-long prison stint for<br />
distributing heroin. Now wearing an electronic ankle<br />
bracelet, she is required to be home every night from 7<br />
p.m. to 7 a.m.<br />
Rose-Lynn is the kind of free-wheeling gal who yells<br />
the F word at the top of her lungs the second she’s free<br />
from her jail cell and heads to her boy toy for a shag<br />
before bothering to make it home to her young son and<br />
daughter. Add a stop at the pub where she gets buzzed<br />
on whiskey on the way home, and it’s no wonder her<br />
mom isn’t too happy to see her return after a year of<br />
raising her kids.<br />
With her children distant from her and a seemingly<br />
dead-end job as a housemaid to a wealthy family that<br />
pays her just about $12 an hour, Rose-Lynn feels like<br />
she’ll never pull together the money to escape to Nashville<br />
and take a real swing at success. But when the<br />
children of her employer Susannah come home early<br />
and catch her belting out a song while vacuuming, Susannah<br />
asks her if she’s tried to make it professionally.<br />
Rose-Lynn responds by immediately asking for<br />
$5,000 to make a fresh start in Nashville, but Susannah<br />
tells her to instead tape a video demo of herself singing<br />
and send it to the top country music deejay on the BBC<br />
radio airwaves. When Rose-Lynn knocks his socks off<br />
with a beautifully heartfelt ballad, she gets an invitation<br />
to come meet him in London and her dreams seem<br />
suddenly tangible.<br />
Yet questions remain: Is she really talented enough<br />
to make it, or is she jeopardizing her family by seeking<br />
to spend time away from them? How will she resolve<br />
things with her mother, who thinks she’s delusional?<br />
And can she really ever put her wild past behind her?<br />
“Wild Rose” is a quiet film, in spite of its occasionally<br />
rousing tunes sung by lead actress Jessie Buckley, an<br />
Irishwoman who broke out on a British talent competition<br />
series and has been a rising star ever since.<br />
Rose-Lynn is a fascinating character, a real hell raiser<br />
in the early scenes of the film, but eventually revealing<br />
a profound loneliness and desire to finally do better as a<br />
mother, a daughter and for herself.<br />
Buckley has incredible vocals, but in keeping with<br />
the movie’s intimate and quiet tone, her most powerful<br />
moments are in the songs where she sings almost in a<br />
whisper. It’s a magical effect that will make those who<br />
see this movie fall in love with her immediately.<br />
As her mother, veteran actress Julie Walters (who<br />
was Oscar-nominated in the 1980s for “Educating<br />
Rita”) looks and acts like Emma Thompson. It’s a solid<br />
performance of a woman who has been ground down<br />
and exasperated by her daughter’s poor behavior and<br />
incredibly bad choices for so long, she wonders if she’ll<br />
ever truly turn it around.<br />
Those aspects — of redemption and family, trust<br />
and the desire to change — are universally relatable<br />
issues. They make this movie very affecting, but the<br />
occasionally too-slow pace keeps this from being a<br />
perfect movie. If you love good music or characterbased<br />
drama, however, “Wild Rose” should smell quite<br />
sweet. n<br />

of mailing or personal delivery to you of a<br />
notice under section 9052 of the California<br />
Probate Code.<br />
Other California statutes and legal authority<br />
may affect your rights as a creditor. You<br />
may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable<br />
in California law.<br />
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the<br />
court. If you are a person interested in the<br />
estate, you may file with the court a Request<br />
for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing<br />
of an inventory and appraisal of estate<br />

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you<br />
are considering bidding on this property<br />
lien, you should understand that there are<br />
risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.<br />
You will be bidding on a lien, not on<br />
the property itself. Placing the highest bid<br />
at a trustee auction does not automatically<br />
entitle you to free and clear ownership of the<br />
property. You should also be aware that the<br />
lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien.<br />
If you are the highest bidder at the auction,<br />
you are or may be responsible for paying off<br />
all liens senior to the lien being auctioned<br />
off, before you can receive clear title to the<br />
property. You are encouraged to investigate<br />
the existence, priority, and size of outstanding<br />
liens that may exist on this property by<br />
contacting the county recorder’s office or<br />
a title insurance company, either of which<br />
may charge you a fee for this information.<br />
If you consult either of these resources, you<br />
should be aware that the same lender may<br />
hold more than one mortgage or deed of<br />
trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROP-<br />
ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on<br />
this notice of sale may be postponed one or<br />
more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,<br />
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section<br />
2924g of the California Civil Code. The<br />
law requires that information about trustee<br />
sale postponements be made available<br />
to you and to the public, as a courtesy to<br />
those not present at the sale. If you wish to<br />
learn whether your sale date has been postponed,<br />
and, if applicable, the rescheduled<br />
time and date for the sale of this property,<br />
you may call, (800) 758-8052 for information<br />
regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this<br />
Internet Web site, www.homesearch.com,<br />

to this case, T.S.# 9948-5158. Information<br />
about postponements that are very short in<br />
duration or that occur close in time to the<br />
scheduled sale may not immediately be<br />
reflected in the telephone information or on<br />
the internet Web site. The best way to verify<br />
postponement information is to attend the<br />
scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to<br />
convey title for any reason, the successful<br />
bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be<br />
the return of monies paid to the Trustee and<br />
the successful bidder shall have no further<br />
recourse. Affinia Default Services, LLC 301<br />
