First Butterfly of the Season
By Gary Baley
If you thought the drama of Equifax and the Credit Triopoly was subsiding, think again. At a congressional hearing Tuesday, Richard Smith, ex-CEO of Equifax, who “retired” last week, testified under oath and dropped a few bombshells. The size of the data breach has gone from “up to 143 million” to “145.5 million” Americans. One wonders if that is the final tally. At least now the weasel-words are gone; there is some certainty to the numbers. The US population is 350 million, 90 million of which are under legal age, leaving 260 million adults. Therefore 56 percent of the adult population has had sensitive private information exposed in this debacle.

PEQUIFAX From Page 1Where’s the encryption?
One might assume that such a trea-sure-trove of private data on over one-half of all adults in America would be stored in secure heavily-encrypted computer files. The “crown jewels” of names, addresses, birthdates, social security numbers and who knows what else. When asked about it, Smith said “this data was not encrypted at rest,” which are weasel-words meaning that dossiers on you and me were stored on disk in plain text—easy to find, easy to read, easy to steal.
Where’s the accountability?Equifax has offered free credit moni-
toring for a year to any member of the pub-lic; but it doesn’t cover the other members of the Triopoly, Experian and TransUnion. We’ll have to pay them. And the shelf-life of this stolen data is a lifetime. After one year, we’ll have to pay Equifax too. So we the people have to pay protection money to these corporate quidnuncs for the rest of our lives while their executives retire with multimillion dollar nest eggs. Comforting isn’t it?
Where’s the sanity?The greatest bombshell of the week
was an announcement that the IRS has awarded Equifax a solesource no-bid $7.25 million contract to “assist in ongoing identity verification and validations” and help prevent fraud. Well someone has to help pay the multi-million dollar retire-ment packages of the ex-Equifax execs; it might as well be the taxpayers. I wonder what the IRS is giving Equifax besides money. Does this give you a warm fuzzy feeling, or does it bespeak a queasiness in your stomach? For me, it’s the latter.
Business is booming at companies that are hawking identity theft protection. LifeLock comes to mind. They report a tenfold increase in subscriptions. I’ll wa-ger that most subscribers don’t know that LifeLock uses Experian services and data to deliver their product.
According to The Atlantic “Two major credit reporting agencies have been lying to consumers. A CFPB investigation concluded that TransUnion and Equifax deceived Americans about the reports they provided and the fees they charged.” The Bureau also found Equifax to be in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Before getting a free credit report, consumers were forced to view Equifax advertisements, which is against the law.
A cyber security firm Krebs on Secu-rity states “Prior to its breach disclosure, Equifax spent more than a half million dollars in the first half of 2017 lobbying Congress to pass legislation that would
limit the legal liability of credit bureaus in connection with data security lapses.”
Bloomberg also reported that Equi-fax and Mandiant, the company hired to investigate the breach, got into a squabble that lead to delays, which gave the hackers time and opportunity to exploit the Equifax vulnerability for several months. Equifax had no comment.
Impact“The impact of the Equifax breach
will echo for years. Millions of consumers will live with the worry that the hackers—either criminals or spies—hold the keys to their financial identity, and could use them to do serious harm” according to Bloomberg Business News.
In an interview with CNBC, Richard Cordray, the Consumer Financial Protec-tion Bureau director said “It is not enough to have enforcement come after the fact. We’re going to have to have preventative monitoring in place. The companies are going to have to change their behavior. They can’t just deal with problems on their own and think it’s good enough. They are going to be monitored and they are going to have to accept that.” He also said it’s important to monitor Experian and TransUnion in the same way.
We the peopleBut what about we the people? Why
are we in this credit trap? I was refused rental of an apartment because I was not in the Triopoly’s databases. I lived in Japan for nne years and they lost track of me. I didn’t have bad credit—I had no credit. I ended up paying a full year’s lease in ad-vance in order to live in Monterey. I used to work in computer communications, and I know there is no real security on Internet-connected computers, so I want-ed to buy a car with cash to avoid being a product to be sold and exposed by the credit bureaus. I couldn’t unless I filled out a credit application and got myself into the Credit Triopoly’s data bases. In this bizarre system, one who lives responsibly and pays as he goes is treated the same as a deadbeat. It’s time for our representatives in Congress to break up this national Credit Triopoly and return control to the states and to the people. We should be able to opt out and be forgotten by these irresponsi-ble corporate giants who take our private information for free and then try to sell it back to us as protection.

‘Flavors of Pacific Grove, a Celebration of Great Chefs’
Dear Reader, In the 2016 election, the citizens of Pacific Grove strongly supported Propo-sition 64 to make recreational marijuana legal in California. The new law goes into effect on Jan 1, 2018. Pacific Grove now has the opportunity and the need to determine our response to the law. We are fortunate that Abasin Ludin, who is a peninsula resident and graduate student in Public Administration, is doing a Capstone Project on the topic of marijuana in our local community. Mayor Bill Kampe is sponsoring Abasin in his research. The results may help inform Pacific Grove City Council and staff about our community views on various aspects of recreational marijuana. We hope that you will help us by filling out this short questionnaire. Your participation in this survey will take about 5 minutes to complete and all responses will remain anonymous as well as highly confidential. Please click on the following link or copy and paste it in your web browser to begin the survey:

De-accession of item in Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History collection approved by City Council
The Pacific Grove City Council approved the de-accession of one adult human ulna held by the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History and trans-fer to the United States Army Garrison, Presidio of Monterey in accordance with the Native American Graves Pro-tection and Repatriation Act.
The Museum Foundation Board’s proposed the de-accession of one hu-man ulna of an adult of indeterminate sex which had been donated to the Pa-cific Grove Museum of Natural History collection in 1960 by Donald Howard.
The proposed de-accession comes following a request made by the United States Army Garrison, Presidio of Mon-terey (Army) which is in the process of repatriating Native American human remains and funerary objects. The Ar-my’s request is in accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act.
Changes to RV ordinance are comingA controversial ordinance which would prohibit overnight parking of trailers and
oversize vehicles in Pacific Grove between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. has passed its first reading – with changes expected by the time the second reading rolls around in a few weeks.
After numerous complaints, the City had held a review of the municipal code provisions around such parking and found that parking of oversize vehicles and trailers on public streets can provide neighborhood blight and deterioration, impair visibility, constitute a nuisance, and be injurious to the health, safety and general welfare. Much public input was sought and accepted.
There was extensive research on the complaints, and met and compared Pacific Grove's proposed ordinance with those of Monterey and several other cities. There was a lively public forum on Sept. 13 which provided a lot of inut.
The new ordinance will provide for measuring from the front to the rear of the vehicle and exclude bumpers, tail lights, racks and other extra parts. It will limit the time such a vehicle belonging to a member of the public can be parked overnight to 72 hours a week. Loading and unloading as well as vehicles under repair will be exempt.
At no time can the vehicle, or any other motor vehicle, be used a living or sleeping quarters.

Wildlife Spotlight
Mola mola
Ocean Sunfish are large slow-moving fish, averaging ten feet long and weighing in at 2200 pounds, commonly found in warm waters throughout the Pacific Ocean. They lack the tail that other fish possess, using large dor-sal and anal fins for propulsion. Despite holding the title of largest bony fish, their diet consists mostly of jellyfish. Sunfish can occasionally be seen basking near the surface with one side facing toward the sun.

Monterey County supports a greater than $4 billion agriculture industry. There are economic, yield and environmental sustainability challenges as-sociated with the nutrient intensive production of specialty crops. With the implementation of the 2012 Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program and the 2014 Sustainable Groundwater Management Act California growers face increased pressures to optimize on-farm practices to comply with water restrictions and increased water quality standards. Dr. Arlene Haffa, Associate Professor in the School of Natural Sciences at CSU Monterey Bay, will discuss this in context of the nitrogen cycle as it relates to agriculture. Dr. Haffa’s research collaborators include the NASA-CSUMB Cooperative that is using satellite data to monitor irrigation and fertilization, the UC Cooperative Extension who have developed tools to help with best management practices, staff and students at CSUMB, and local commercial growers who generously share their fields.

Cop LogA few months ago, like a lot of us, I was thinking about the strange things hap-pening in Washington DC. I had never been there but recalled reading an article in The Cedar Street0 Times by a veteran who had visited Washington courtesy of the Bay Area Honor Flight Foundation. I found their friendly website, applied, and was accepted for a September flight that was a marvelous experience.
Our flight included 27 WWII and Korean War vets each accompanied by a “guardian,” required to assist the vets, keep us involved, etc. I was fortunate to have my daughter Jane as my guardian and it was the most time we've been able to spend together in about 45 years. Several other vets also had a child or grandchild as their guardian.
The vets on our Honor Flight all came from Northern California. I was surprised and delighted to meet a father and son team from right here in Pacific Grove: John and Mark Goings. And I reconnected with an old friend and fellow Marine, Denny Weisgerber from Milpitas, whom I hadn't seen for several years. There were also vets from Salinas, Santa Cruz and Hollister.
At SFO we met the three Honor Flight staff members who would be our leaders. Wheelchairs were provided for each vet and were used during all phases of the Honor Flight. A wheelchair team made up of three of our guardians efficiently made our stops at the memorials and museums quick and easy. We arrived at Reagan National Airport at 5 PM, checked into our hotel and had a buffet dinner.
On Friday we visited the WWII, Air Force and Women in Military Service Memorials, two museums and the Arlington National Cemetery. There we watched the Changing of the Guard and I was one of four WWII vets who participated in the wreath laying at the Tomb of the Unknowns. We had a formal dinner Friday evening followed by a program presented by our flight leaders.
Saturday we visited the Lincoln, Navy, Korean and Vietnam War Memorials. I was sorry that we could not visit the Marine Corps Memorial because it was being refurbished. I had fought on Iwo Jima and hoped to see the statue made from Joe Rosenthal's iconic photo of the flag being raised on Mt. Suribachi.
An exciting part of our visit was the fact that we had a police escort, motorcycle and SUV with sirens and flashing lights, everywhere our bus went! Imagine Friday commute traffic and Saturday tourists all making way for our bus. We saw two other Honor Flight groups, from Oregon and Wisconsin, and I think we saw twice as many memorials and museums because we had the police escort paid for by the Bay Area Honor Flight Foundation. Another plus was that we had a retired Army colonel with us as a tour guide who pointed out, via an excellent PA system, various memorials, museums, government offices and other interesting sites. He also shared a good col-lection of military-themed jokes.
When we arrived at SFO on Saturday night we went through a cordon of about 100 cheering folks that included the American Legion, USO, family and friends. We were then entertained by six couples from a swing dancing club wearing 1940s clothes as well as an eight piece bagpipe band. Then the band led us, still in our wheelchairs, through the airport surprising many travelers going to and from their flights.
Final words were shared and we were told that there would be a reunion late in October.
My Bay Area Honor Flight could truly be called the trip of a lifetime.

Blessing of the Butterfly Sanctuary, 2017
An overflow crowd helped Tribal Chair-woman Louise Ramirez and Khenpo Karten Rinpoche call blessings on Pacific Grove’s Butterfly Sanctuary last Saturday, September 30.
In years past, a lone butterfly - the first of thousands - flew through the ceremony, thrilling attendees. This year not one, but four monarch butterflies appeared.
The ceremony was founded by the late Helen Johnson.

The Painter’s PaintingPainters on Painting: Alejandro Sandoval
Understanding the arrangement of what you will be painting or draw-ing is by far the most important and least discussed aspect of classical drawing. In this example above, I completed a master-copy after Rem-brandt Van Rijn. Initially my goal in
Friends, he has gone and done it again. I had intended to set up this piece. I do not need to. After the viewing and emotional
read, I hear Ringo; with a little help from my friends resonate in my head. Again, my thanks to the painter Alejandro Sandoval.
completing this copy was to refine my ability to establish crosshatching and mark making in a more complete and clean manner. What I came to realize, shortly after I made my initial marks and began to establish the development of form was that the composition is
what made this particular etching re-ally stand out.
I have read some historical doc-uments regarding Rembrandt’s life and have several books that have an outline on his methods and materials as a painter. There is however one
thing that those books cannot cover, how did Rembrandt know to present his paintings in such a simplified and luminescent way? Was it a lack of lighting in his north lit studio, or perhaps in a fit of frustration he threw something together and his style was developed? I am sure there are many historians that can shed the light on his day to day living and his studio arrangement, but that would defeat the point of what I am saying.
In sales we used to say. “If it’s all about the product knowledge then the engineers would be the top sales-man.” If you’ve been in sales you know this is not true, a real salesman knows how to show people what they want to see, and hide the things they don’t. Rembrandt understood this with his masterful compositions and hopefully with hard work and persistence (and many more master-copies) I will have just as strong as an understanding of it.

Reasoning With God
What does growing old mean? If you asked a 5 year-old and a 75-year old, you would get very different answers. Does this mean that the experience gained in those 70 years brings us a different per-spective on age and growing old?
Prov 20:29, “The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head.” Is God telling us that growing old, including the gray hairs we gain along the way, bring a form of beauty not yet earned during our youth? 2 Cor 4:16, “For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.” Is God saying the outer beauty of youth can transform into the inner beauty that con-tinues to improve as we age? How? Rom 12:2 “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Does God not call us to renew our mind by reading the Bible? What will happen if we ignore this and do not work to improve our inward being? Our outward beauty will wane no matter how hard we fight to save it and one day we will all return to dust, Eccl 3:7, “All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.” How futile are our efforts to stop time, what has been the cost, how
What does God say about growing old?
much have we wasted and what will we gain by it?
Jam 4:14, “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.” This life is short, it could end in a heart-beat, what will we do with it? Will we use this time to acquire the inner beauty God loves? Will this inner beauty not shine His light into a dying world, so that lost souls can find their way to God? Matt 5:16, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Is there any greater meaning for this life?
Ps 71:18, “Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.” Does showing our strength mean we share the wisdom we have acquired over the years? Are we to teach this wisdom to all who are willing to hear? Rev 3:20, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” Will we be able to feed all those who are all willing to hear? Or, will we waste this life and have nothing to feed them?
Ps 90:12, “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” How do we apply our hearts to wisdom? Is numbering our days an important element? Does numbering our days mean we are not to waste them on pleasure only, to the exclusion of gaining wisdom? Prov 4:26-27, “Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be estab-lished. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” When we live long enough to acquire gray hair, we experience the long-term results of the choices we have made and those we have seen others make. Does this experience provide us the proof we need to better understand God’s advice? Ps 19:7, “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.”
If we believe there is more to this life than just trying to enjoy it, what are we doing about it? God has given each of us our allotted time on earth, so that we may figure this out and do something?
But, what are we supposed to do? Prov 3:6, “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” When we acknowledge Him in all we do, He will direct our paths. So, acknowledging Him is where we should start, Matt 6:33, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Seeking His righteous-ness is the beginning.
If we are lucky enough to acquire gray hair, it might be because we have not yet completed the work God has called us to do. What has God called us to do? Jer 29:11, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” If God has an expected end planned for us, why aren’t we looking for it? We need to do something today, for we never know which day will be our last.

Joyce was a loving sister to her brothers, Gary (Tawana) Tatum, Thomas (Linden) Tatum and Leigh Tatum. She was also "Aunt Joyce" to three generations of nieces and nephews. She had many cousins including her oldest cousin John (Evie) Bentz of Georgetown, SC. Joyce's oldest and dearest friend who she first met at the age of five is also her sister in law, Angela De Angelis of Gardnerville, NV.
Joyce was a member of the Church of the Epiphany and cherished her many friends at the Country Garden Senior Apartments in Vacaville. She also loved her "Girl" luncheons with good friends Judy Nelson and Marty Lopez.
Her cremains will be placed with her daughter Denise at the Oakwood Memorial Cemetery in Santa Cruz at a later date.
The family would also like to thank the doctors, nurses and staff of the Vaca Valley Rehab Center and Emergency Room as well as those at Mercy San Juan Medical Center in Carmichael.
Any remembrances can be sent in Joyce's name to the Leukemia Foun-dation at 146 Monroe Center Street NW, Grand Rapids MI 49503 or to the Solano County Society for prevention of cruelty to animals at 2200 Pea-body Rd., Vacaville CA 95687

Women's International League for Peace & Freedom (Mty. Co.) presents The UN Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty: Delegitimizing Nuclear Weapons
With 122 UN member states having passed the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, commonly known as the "Ban Treaty," on July 7 in New York City, we enter an era where nuclear weapons' possession, development, and possible use will be stigmatized and "delegitimized." The panel will give information about the process of nego-tiating and passing the Ban Treaty, the ratification process, and various perspec-tives toward the Ban Treaty. The panel will also discuss the current nuclear weapons situation, including the U.S. nuclear weapons' modernization plans, and the important role of civil society and education.
Speakers include Jackie Cabasso, Executive Director Western States Legal Foundation; Masako Toki, Education Project Manager at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies coordinating the Critical Issues Forum;
Lesley Kucharski, a MIIS student in Nonproliferation and Terrorism Studies who interned at the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs in the spring and early summer of 2017 while the Ban Treaty was negotiated, and Sarah Bitter, Pacific Grove High student who participated in the Critical Issues Forum.
Co-sponsored by the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey (MIIS), Monterey Peace and Justice Center, UNA-USA Monterey Bay Chapter, and the Women's Interna-tional League for Peace and Freedom Monterey County Branch.
This was first time Pacific Grove has faced San Lorenzo Valley in over a decade. This game was SLV's homecoming.
The two teams fought gallantly through the first and second quarter. With a shutout on both teams in the first quarter, the second quarter was a smash mouth, run heavy football game.
At the half score was 7-3 SLV. During the third and fourth quarter, SLV continued to use a ground and pound attack with a third down pass that ate up the Pacific Grove secondary.
The final would end up being 29-3, an SLV victory.

This fall marks senior Esther Lee's sixth season of golf. She first began to play golf in middle school, convinced by a friend to try out for the sport. Esther soon was charmed by the close and intimate atmosphere of the team and continued to play when she reached high school. As a veteran player, Esther has been team captain since her Junior year and has helped to shape what the team is today. Since her freshman year, Esther has both witnessed and facilitated a change in her fellow team members, helping them become stronger and ever more supportive as a group. Esther sees the team's recent difficult loss against San-ta Catalina School not as a setback, but as a stepping stone to further develop her team so they will be in top condition for the Champion-ship. She hopes to preserve the lively attitude that the team has taken towards the sport, even when she is gone next season.

This column will be about thoughts. Obviously, mine. For the past five months we have been looking for a spot for a shop benefitting Pacific Repertory Theatre. When we left our previous store, we were asked imme-diately to start one for the esteemed theatrical group. We were thrilled. We thought at first, we might locate in Pacific Grove but were told the town was maxed out with such establishments. I recall a few years ago when there was quite a discussion about “thrift” shops taking over America’s Last Home Town. In the summer of 2015, the powers that be instituted an ordinance that there could be no more than 12 in town and two on Lighthouse. We looked around New Monterey and down town then what we thought was a miracle occurred. Tail Waggers announced that it is closing and a space on Lighthouse became available. We were very excited thinking that we would bring to downtown PG some real glamour. With Frank and set designers doing the windows, featuring the productions of the moment and seasonal themes it seemed a natural. A great many young people in the town have been involved with School of Dramatic Arts (SODA), appeared in their productions and, for years, many plays were performed at Sunset. A natural, right? Not so. Included in the list of “no-no’s” is anyone that might be selling second hand…including art galleries and antique shops. We gave up and have found a couple of spots we are researching in Monterey.
Now I want to educate those of you who think of benefit shops as “junk emporiums”. People who donate to causes they support give their best. Things that they can no longer use, estates when they are moving, designer clothing which no longer fit, jewelry that might do some good. It is rare that we get items to discard, if we do, we pass them on to those who need them.
Travelers seek out towns that feature such stores. For many years a group of us went to the Gold Country and spent a day or two investigating the stores featuring formerly owned goods. This is true all over the coun-try. In fact, it is becoming the rage, quality vintage or expensive pre-owned clothing deemed preferable to cut rate new stores. We had visitors from all over California, in fact from all over the country, who made our shop a point of destination. Tourists come to town and look for the shops selling second hand goods. Now we (the volunteers from our previous store) and I are working on a huge estate, everything has been given to us…the most glorious clothing, decorative items, art work, dishes and furniture that you can imagine. We are having an estate sale on November 10,11, and 12…and will carry it over until everything is gone. At that point we will
probably have a shop up and running. You will have lots of warning and notice. It is almost a Dr. Seuss story, the little island that stands alone, Horton Hears a Who...?
Speaking of Dr. Seuss: Did you hear that Melania Trump wanted to donate a collection of the beloved author's books to a library? Her offer was declined. Why? Because, according to the librarian, Dr. Seuss was racist. When you pick yourself off the floor, I will explain…The cat in the hat wears a big red bow tie. That is suggestive of the old minstrel shows which are, of course, now in the basket of politically incorrect items. Poor Porky Pig, Donald Duck and Boo Boo…you are no longer acceptable.
I am tired of what is correct and what is not. We must guard our vernacular or we might offend someone. I am exhausted by the kneeling, not kneeling, standing, of the football teams who make more money than everyone on my block put together. They have every right to believe as they do, although, I must confess, the Civil War has been over for many years. Most of those protesting did not see our boys return (or not return) from the last World War, battleworn and battered. Many have never seen unity in our country, except for a short time after 09/11…Yes, we have done horrendous things, but not most of us personally. We cannot undo the sins of our fathers, any more than we can take credit for their virtues. We need to move ahead, address the problems in our country, and many abroad. Forget the football players. Enjoy the games if you will and move on to the important things in life and this goes for our President as well. Today there was another mass murder in Las Vegas… 58 dead to date, 515 injured, the largest such crime in our country. Each one is the largest. What’s next?
When I was young, in fact when my children were young, there was no problem when a child was out after dark. There was little issue with young people being apprehended. If there was a kidnapping it made the news big time. Now it is commonplace. There seems to be no day when there is not a story about a killing or mass mur-der. Mr. Moon is not staring down on a peaceful world.
Stephen Moorer is staring in “Cyrano” at The Out-door Forest Theatre. It is a stunning performance and wonderful production through October 15. In November we will see “Mamma Mia.” As I have said many times, support your local theater.

How do I get a sake cup of my own at Zum Sushi?
I love sushi. I lived in San Diego for university and would eat sushi sever-al times a week. It’s a lovely light meal for a warm day, and being that we are in the middle of Indian Summer, it was a welcome treat. This week’s review is of Züm Sushi on Central Ave just as you enter PG from Monterey. The establish-ment is in the former Thai Bistro II and has been there since June 2015. If you aren’t familiar with the building, it’s a charming blue and white structure that looks to be a converted house.
I went after a long day of work, a day of not only working, but also running errands on my lunch break and taking phone calls and preparing for travel. What I’m trying to say is the first thing I ordered as I sat down was a cold beer. The waitress took note and came back with 2 big spicy mussels, one for both my dining companion and myself. Next came the beer, I ordered a regu-lar Sapporo and my friend ordered the Sapporo Black and those came with two frosty cold pint glasses, perfectly suited to quench my thirst and help me turn the chapter of the day into evening and relaxation time.
We put in our order for a couple of sushi rolls but I wanted something else first. The sweet waitress with the ador-able lisp and angel’s voice recommended the stuffed jalapeños. “Sounds great!” I said and then I looked at the menu: deep fried jalapeños with spicy fish, cream
cheese, tobiko, and green onions. (To-biko is flying fish roe, or more plainly, fish eggs.)
“Hm. I don’t really care for cream cheese.” I said.
“You don’t?” Inquired my dear friend and dining companion. I guess I have a reputation for eating everything.
“I just don’t care for it with fish and sushi.”
“We can do half with cream cheese and half without,” the waitress had reeled in our tangential conversation.
“Perfect!” I said. We decided to order the Mio spar-
kling sake as well. Because: 1. I was writing this article and 2. because I have to try the sparkling anything. It was sweet and effervescent, a lovely combi-nation! I have enjoyed the hot sake there in the past and they have a nice selection of both filtered and unfiltered sake
The stuffed jalapeños (sans cream cheese) were excellent! I heard that the cream cheese variety was magnificent as well..for those of the Philadelphia persuasion.
Our rolls arrived not long after, I had ordered the Lovers Point and the PG Daddy, in honor of my home town. The PG Daddy rolls are huge! In addition to the regular sushi roll with several types of fish and avocado, it is battered, deep fried, and topped with peppers. The Lovers Point is a spicy tuna roll topped with tuna, salmon, seaweed salad with unagi sauce, spicy sauce, and tobiko. The rolls were wonderful and the service was great, too. Speedy and friendly.
We sat back drinking our beers and sake and people watched, observing the adorable European couple with a bucket chilling the white wine at their table. A
mother and daughter sat to our right, the daughter relishing in her mochi ice cream—mochi is Japanese rice cake made of a very fine rice flour; mochi cream is a ball of ice cream wrapped in said rice cake. I have not had it at Züm but it is one of my favorite treats! However, we were completely satisfied following our meal with no room left to enjoy a dessert for ourselves.
Züm Sushi is located on 159 Central Ave. in Pacific Grove. They are open daily for lunch and dinner at 11:30am-2:30pm and 5:00-9:30pm, respectively. On Fridays they say open until 10:00pm, Saturday 12:30-10pm, and Sunday 12:30-9:00pm. There is bar seating and smaller tables in the bar section, as well as the main dining room and outdoor seating by a fire pit when the weather permits. I love the little cubby holes in the bar filled with sake cups…I wonder how I get one of my own?
Feedback is welcome and encour-aged, feel free to e-mail me at [email protected] with any comments you may have.

Tom Stienstra’s “California Camping” guide was among my first purchases when I moved to this state in the rainy December of 2010. Back then I thought I’d buy a van and check out the various campsites in that big blue book. More than 1,400 venues are listed.
Instead I wandered into Pacific Grove, never bought the van, and fetched up be-hind the counter of a very pleasant book store for several years. That stint ended and a birthday nearing, I coaxed the camping book out of retirement last week.
I wanted an outing that would convince a novice camper that sleeping on packed dirt in a tent is fun and character-building. I had earlier pitched to no avail the glories of wilderness backpacking, so this would be drive-up camping with whatever comforts a truck can carry.
The camping venue had to offer comforts too: bathrooms, showers, fire circles and so on. I also needed a body of water that could float the two inflatable rowboats in my proud fleet. These caveats eliminated many of the 1,400 sites.
At length my eye fell on this Stienstra entry: “An outstanding operation: big lake, 70 degree-temperatures, miles of shoreline; picnic tables and fire grills provided; drinking water, restrooms with showers and flush toilets, coin laundry, horseshoe pits . . . .” And so on.
“There’s even a ‘lakeview restaurant’ if we get tired of apples and peanut butter sandwiches,” I read.
Liz raised an eyebrow. “That’s our menu? Apples and peanut butter? Are you talking breakfast, lunch or dinner?”
“All three,” I said. “Wait, just kidding! Don’t worry, we’ll have memorable camp meals we can heat up on my little propane burner.”
“What’s this place called again?”“Lake Nacimiento. It’s down by Paso Robles. The summer season is over now, so
it shouldn’t be crowded.”And it wasn’t crowded. It was very crowded. Our visit coincided with a fishing
tournament that lured 200 anglers and a men’s retreat that drew 180 Christians. In addition, a sunny autumn weekend brought throngs of party boaters, jet skiers, wake boarders and water-skiers.
“There might be one tent site left up there,” I pointed. “It’s probably not taken because it’s steep and lacks parking, but no worries. We should be able to lug our gear up from that nearby lot.”
After pitching our humble tent, we gazed down over a vast encampment of sleek trailer boats, head-high pickup trucks and house-sized RVs with shade canopies and pop-out rooms. Smoke from a hundred barbecue units hazed the meaty air. Out on the sparkling lake, roaring speed boats and whining jet skis churned up wakes tall enough to swamp my inflatable fleet.
“Wow,” I marveled. “These people have truly sensational toys.”“Look at that sporty red grill over there,” Liz gestured. “It’s on wheels, and it folds
up and pops open. If we had one of those, we could make enchiladas, tacos, quesdadillas and pancakes.”
“I’ll put that on the list for next time,” I nodded. By the end of our stay, this list would lengthen as ever-more ingenious creature comforts appeared in neighboring campsites. Why hadn’t I thought to bring a double-wide sleeping futon? Or a battery-powered pole displaying multi-colored party lights?
One of these festive poles marked the Christian men’s retreat camp. Hearing a soulful singer-guitarist Saturday night, we moseyed to the fringe of the darkened retreat quadrant. There the congregants sang praises, heard a stirring sermon from a policeman-pastor and witnessed the baptism of a young man wonderfully named Zion.
“I’ve been camping a long time,” I whispered as we surreptitiously joined the men walking toward the water. “I’ve never seen a moonlit baptism in a lake.”
That was Saturday. Other firsts followed on Sunday, when we trucked our stuff off to a different campsite out of earshot of the boisterous lake traffic. This Quail Ridge camp stood in high contrast to the first one: it was woodsy, unpopulated, quiet and smoke-free. The only noise makers were crows, jays, woodpeckers and mockingbirds.
Having slept little in “roaring camp” the previous night, we spent Sunday in largely idle pursuits: bird watching, hammock dozing and sketching with colored pencils. A couple of hundred yards away, a conga line of trucks and trailer boats formed at the lake’s exit gate, but no one else came to the Quail camp.
By Monday it seemed the entire population of Lake Nacimiento had departed. No speed boats, fishing boats or jet skis cross-hatched the lake’s mirror surface. Toting my portable boats down to the put-in spot, I huffed and puffed and inflated them both.
We rowed out onto still water as a sinking sun bathed the reservoir in light as golden as the California hills. Tom Stienstra’s camping guide was on the money.

The typical American homebuyer, like much of the rest of the country, is in-creasingly young and Hispanic. According to statistics from the 2016 State of Hispan-ic Homeownership Report, jointly released this May by the Hispanic Wealth Project and the (NAHREP), the U.S. is in the midst of a Hispanic homeownership surge. Since 2000, Hispanic households have increased by 6.7 million, representing 42.5 percent of the nation’s overall household growth, a trend only expected to accelerate. Latinos are expected to make up 52 percent of new homebuyers between 2010 and 2030, fueled in large part by the nation’s 14.6 million Latino millennials and growth in the increasingly diverse suburbs.
At a time when homeownership hov-ers near a 50-year low, more than 330,000 Hispanics formed new households last year. This is happening despite a low rate of inherited wealth in the Hispanic com-munity, a shortage of low-cost housing options, and higher-than average loan refusal rates among potential Hispanic homeowners. Demographers note that high workforce participation and the “fer-vent desire to own a home” have driven
growth in Latino home buying. Many reports show this demographic
playing an increasingly larger, and in some ways outsized, role in the U.S. economy. The most recent “State of the Nation’s Housing” study from the Harvard Uni-versity Joint Center for Housing Studies (JCHS) predicts minorities will fuel for three-quarters of the gains in U.S. house-holds, with Latinos accounting for one third of these gains. It’s a symbol, perhaps, of the economic strength of Hispanics, which make up 17 percent of the U.S. population.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Hispanics accounted for 76.4 percent of the growth in the country’s labor force between 2010 and 2016, made up 20.8 percent of new entrepreneurs in 2015, according to the Kauffman Foun-dation, and started almost a million new, Latino-owned businesses between 2012 and 2016.
While it may not come as a surprise that Hispanics will represent the largest segment of the Texas population by 2020, according to state data, and will be the prime source of population growth in both the Lone Star State and California, Latino populations are also on the rise all across the country.
Hispanic homeownership surges
Today’s article and the next one will be about the 1031 exchange. To begin with, I am not an accountant nor a tax attorney. These articles are solely meant for educational purposes. Please do not do any tax planning based on what your read here. Reach out to your accountant or tax attorney. Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Service Code allows sellers of investment property to postpone paying capital gains taxes as long as they reinvest the proceeds into “like” property. Today we will get an overview of what a 1031 is and the rules and regulations you must follow to benefit from the tax advantages.
A 1031 exchange can really be looked at as a rollover of funds. Any gain from the sale of property can be rolled over into new property without paying taxes. There is no limit to the amount of times a seller may perform a 1031 exchange and with proper advice, taxes can be avoided altogether. There are seven specific rules or requirements to follow in order to qualify for a 1031 exchange.They are as follows:• Like Kind Property• A Qualified Intermediary Must Be
Involved• 45 Day Identification Period• 180 Purchase Period• Equal or Greater Value• Tax Payer and Title Must Be the Same• Tax Payer Must Not Receive Gain
When the IRS mentions “Like Kind” properties, it is relating to the use of the properties. The properties must be used for investment, trade or business. They cannot be your primary home or a vacation home that you have for personal use. Also, property held strictly for resale, like a flip, does not qualify for a 1031 exchange. Va-cant land qualifies as investment property. The old property could be a commercial
building and the replacement(new) prop-erty could be a vacant lot, a rental home or a condominium that you will lease to someone. Remember, a primary residence can never be used in a 1031 exchange.
The IRS requires that the seller/tax payer in the 1031 exchange have no contact with the proceeds of the property being sold and this is where the qualified intermediary is required. The qualified intermediary is a third party who is inde-pendent in the transaction, prepares the necessary documents that will be provid-ed to the IRS and holds the funds in an account to complete the exchange. The qualified intermediary cannot someone who the seller has had a family or business relationship in the past two years.
The seller has 45 days to identify a re-placement property or properties once the sale of the old property has closed. The 45 days are calendar days a2nd no extensions are allowed. The seller is able to identify up to three replacement/new properties without regard to cost. If more than three replacement properties are identified than the IRS limits the total value to less than 200 percent or double the value of the old property. The list of properties must be specific and have their addresses or a legal description to be valid.
In the essence of space, we will fin-ish this discussion next time. The 1031 exchange is somewhat popular on the Monterey Peninsula due to the fact that many properties are investment properties. I have just helped two separate buyers complete purchases this year that were 1031 exchanges and they were fairly easy to accomplish as long as we all paid atten-tion to the rules. Until next time, please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Cal Trans has announced the reopening of the Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge is scheduled, with a ribbon-cutting set for Friday, Oct. 13.
The failure of the bridge in February, 2017 virtually cut Big Sur off from motoring visitors. Winter storms caused a landslide and locals watched the nightly news in horror as the 310-foot bridge fell off its pilings and into the canyon. It was demolished by road crews and the rebuilding began about eight months ago.
The SPCA for Monterey County advises drivers to use extreme caution when driving to avoid hitting deer on area roadways this time of year. Fall is deer mating season on the central coast and deer are significantly more likely to be on the move near and across road-ways. Specifically The SPCA advises:
Be particularly careful at dawn and dusk when driving, especially where visibility is limited. Use of high beams when appropriate can provide a greater area of visibility.
Slow down and use extreme cau-tion when approaching a deer standing near the side of a road. Be prepared for the deer to enter the roadway in front of the vehicle. If necessary, honk your horn and flash your lights to try to scare the deer off of the roadway.
Be alert for more deer than you may see at that moment. Where there’s one deer, there are always more nearby.
Use extra caution in areas where deer crossing signs are posted. These are areas where deer are known to cross roadways.
Be particularly cautious in wooded and agricultural areas.
Call The SPCA immediately if you see any injured or orphaned wildlife.
Locally, areas of greatest deer ac-tivity at night are Pebble Beach, Carmel Valley Road, the Highway 68 corridor,
Holman Highway, River Road, and Highway 1 from Seaside to south of Carmel.
Since September first, the SPCA Wildlife Rescue Center has responded to 56 reports of injured deer. These include multiple fatalities and two that rescuers were able to release from entrapment in fences. This week, the SPCA Wildlife Center has been re-ceiving at least two calls a day about injured deer. Currently, there are six known injured, yet ambulatory, deer in Monterey that are too mobile to safely capture. SPCA Wildlife rescuers are monitoring the situations and welcome all calls about the location of these deer. The deer may recover on their own, but the SPCA relies on our community reporting injured deer to help assess their situation. Unfortunately, attempt-ing to capture or tranquilize these deer (after which a mobile deer can travel for miles) often causes more serious injuries to the deer and the community.
In 2016 The SPCA responded to 104 reports, with almost all the deer involved either dead on arrival or needing to be humanely euthanized immediately. The average insurance claim for deer/vehicle collisions in the United States is $3,995 per incident.

JAMESON’S CLASSIC
MOTORCYCLE MUSEUM
Phyllis Edwards contributed the walking tour of PG’s Li t t le Free Libraries—and the Preface to our community book—“Life in Pacific Grove, California,” which is excerpt-ed here and appears in its entirety on book pages xvii to xix. Phyllis will be helping to sell books, along with illus-trator Keith Larson, October 7, at the PG Library. She is one of the book’s main contributors and a PG volunteer extraordinaire!
The InspirationThe scene is a small, yet airy room
located in Jewell Park, Pacific Grove on a pleasant afternoon. The occupants, a rather motley group of adults, have entered the room, seated themselves in chairs around long classroom-type tables, and responded warmly to the cheerful greetings of the group’s facilitator, Patricia Hamilton.
Patricia has designed the next nine monthly classes around the theme of pres-ent-day experiences, to ground writers in the present and to fully appreciate their life in Pacific Grove today. While students are busy writing their stories, Patricia is completing her own memoir for her grandchildren with her stories of life in Pacific Grove.
These intrepid folks, originally at-tracted to the offering of “Guided Auto-biography Memoir Class” in the abstract, now face the reality that actual writing must soon begin and, as Patricia intro-duces Theme 1: “How I Came to Live in the Grove,” some rather pinched facial expressions appear as writing implements begin to commit thought to print.
The assignment is easy and not a bit beyond the ability or ken of any writer in the room, and thoughts and memories of each participant flow from the internal realm to paper or laptop in a sometimes steady, sometimes intermittent stream.
The Butterfly Effect
At the end of the writing period, Patricia invites the participants to read their writings aloud to the group to foster a feeling of community. At this surely not unexpected invitation, discouraging thoughts invade the minds of some. Fears of shame or inadequacy raise their worry-ing heads and take form as introductory commentary to virtually every courageous writer’s offering: “Well, I don’t really write very well …” “I don’t know, I just …,” belittling their story before even dar-ing to share with the group.
Then the magic begins. Spontaneous, authentic reactions emanate from the lis-teners and each writer’s eyes open wide. With each listener’s response, thoughts of “Oh, this IS worth writing about …” and, “My little life IS worth something …” begin to replace the writer’s former fears. New perceptions emerge in both writers and listeners as they awaken to the realization that what deeply matters to all of them is people and their relationships, here and now. … … …
The ProcessThus the project began and its me-
chanics commenced. Inspired by Na-poleon Hill’s philosophy of “Conceive, Believe, Achieve,” Patricia started with “OK. What do I need to do NOW?” Since Life in Pacific Grove would be the seventh collection of people’s stories Patricia had completed pro bono, she knew the basic
steps required to publish a book of this kind. … … …
Patricia wanted the book to highlight Pacific Grove’s diverse faces: all kinds of people in all walks of life. This type of outreach would require a whole team of assistants. She recruited helpers who could gather stories from business owners, public relations specialists, employers and employees, and teachers and students. She always emphasized the opportunity to benefit the community as a whole, as the proceeds from the sale of this book will benefit the Pacific Grove Public Library.
The Life in Pacific Grove team be-came the “P.G. book people,” carrying all over town bags and purses full of bookmarks, business cards, pictures, checklists, writing guides, and contact information (email, website, and phone). Patricia met with members of the Chamber of Commerce, tour guides, local magazine publishers, members of service clubs and special interest groups, and residents of retirement communities.
Soon, the progress of the book be-came the new topic of discussion all over town, in coffee shops, bookstores, cafés, restaurants, offices, salons, bakeries, shops and, of course, the library. No resident, visitor, or student could escape the excite-ment about the stories soon to be preserved within the covers of a book, available to all to enjoy now and in the future.
The Butterfly EffectThe publication of “Life in Pacific
Grove” brings to life the truth that story-telling is universal, touching every culture in all corners of the globe. It provides evidence that stories have power to build bridges of understanding among indi-viduals and groups that may otherwise appear to have little in common, yet are part of a community’s shared culture. An understanding that stories have power—to enchant, to inspire, to entertain, to define our lives, to bring us together as a commu-nity—will become apparent as you peruse the pages of this book.
The butterfly effect posits that small changes in the physical world can have unpredictable, larger effects for the entire planet. Similarly, writing our stories and sharing them with others can affect peo-ple and their worlds in unexpected ways. While the action of putting our life story on paper may seem like a somewhat futile task at times, the power of the butterfly effect resides within it nonetheless. Even if you sense no specific lesson or purpose can come from writing about a particular episode in your life, you may find that calmness arises inside you, a peace that lingers as you view your life with greater clarity, wisdom and compassion. … … …
The book you hold in your hands offers an opportunity to realize ever more fully the community spirit of Pa-cific Grove. As you read the individual offerings in this book, allow yourself to experience an awareness that you are a participant in the butterfly effect of life in this special place, to share the awakenings those writers in the first class experienced, and to know that the people and our rela-tionships here do indeed transform our town and, ultimately, our nation and our world.

Homeless in Paradise
Homeless Hotspots—Part IV
A former pimple on the American face is now manifesting as acute acne
By Gary Baley
After two decades of political wran-gling, lobbying, and fundraising at the fed-eral, state and local levels, the first phase of the California Central Coast Veterans Cemetery (CCCVC) opened last October with much fanfare and well-deserved praise for the local politicians, founda-tions, and veteran groups that made it happen. Yet it was a bittersweet victory for some veteran families who for personal or religious convictions eschew cremations and could not be interred there. Phase 1 of the cemetery can house 5,000 cremated remains, but no in-ground burials. Jew-ish, Muslim, Greek Orthodox, Ethiopian Orthodox, Mormon, and Presbyterian faiths either outright forbid cremation or have a strong preference for in-ground burial. Further, it is well-known that 40 percent of the populace as a whole favors in-ground burial. So in the inclusive-con-scious, diversity-oriented California state government – what happened? Trying to get a straight answer from CalVet, the state agency that planned the phases of the cemetery, was futile. “There was never any intention to discriminate”,“Why are you trying to create an issue?” “Are you trying to suggest a conspiracy theory?” were frequent defensive phrases heard when just trying to find someone who would explain the thinking behind the plan that seemed to violate the First Amendment of our U.S. Constitution. No one would divulge a name of someone responsible for the seven-million-dollar project plan.
Locating homeless women isn’t easy. If you want to hang out with them once you find them, “hold your horses,” as Dad would say.
In other words, go slow and easy because, if you don‘t, you’re likely to be given the cold shoulder. Why? Because houseless women, as they prefer to be called, differ from their male counterparts in one obvious way:
Homeless men are visible. Women are almost invisible.
Are men more fraternal than women? Decide for yourself.
Look in the eucalyptus grove across from the Naval Postgraduate School on Fremont Ave. in Monterey. On a sunny day, you’ll spot a dozen casually clad men on benches, trading bicycle parts, sharing snacks, and talking.
How many women do you see kick-ing back, swapping stories and laughing while sporting heavy backpacks? None in groups. Maybe one or two loners pushing heavily laden shopping carts and probably clothed in filthy rags.
Many homeless women look clean, fashionable and dressed for a day at the office. If they do hang out, it could be in a public library or community center.
So, how do you find homeless wom-en?Introducing the ΣΑΨ Sorority
Contact non-homeless women who serve as their inadequately sheltered sis-ters’advocates.
Most are employees of, or volunteers for, governmental or legal non-profit agen-cies that survive on donations and grants.
Two local organizations, Homeless Outreach and Friends of Homeless Wom-en, meet monthly and serve as umbrellas under which such agency representatives gather. They’re separate but linked by the ΣΑΨ Sorority bond: Σ=Sigma: Simply; Α=Alpha: Amazing; Ψ=Psi: Perspicacity
In short, they don’t give up or give in even if they’re “worn to a frazzle,” as my Ozarks mother would say. The contact persons are:Homeless Outreach, Sandy Larson, [email protected].
Representatives of religious, social, governmental and public groups, some-times homeless women, discuss pertinent issues involving the homeless. Open to the public. Next meeting: Mon., Oct. 16, 1 p.m., First Presbyterian Church, 501 Eldorado St., Monterey.Friends of Homeless Women, Kathy Whilden, [email protected] .
This is the social outreach arm of the Fund for Homeless Women, a field-of-in-
terest fund for the Community Foundation of Monterey County that provides grants to qualified non –profits that help homeless women. Meetings are the 4th Wednesday. of most months, 10 a.m. – 11:30 a.m., at St. Mary’s by the Sea Episcopal Church, 146 12th St., Pacific Grove.
What about non-qualified advocates like me?
People presume I’m paid for “Home-less in Paradise” column that began running in Cedar Street Times in October 2014 and now reaches 5000 readers week-ly through Facebook, Nextdoor and other social media mail.
Truth is, it’s a free public service I fund privately in order to have freedom to speak my mind, such as, “Homelessness is a former pimple on the American face that’s now manifesting as national acne.”
How much does it cost to produce Homeless in Paradise? Easy. It’s $120 per month.”
Can I afford it? Not since my insur-
ance leaped $110 per month.For this reason, I’m holding my first
private fundraiser and you’re invited!Books for Beds at Book Launch for
