    Some-what Live From the 2ndSupervisorial District - FEET To the Fire

    Posted by Chris Nguyen on April 28,2014

    We're live from the Feet to the

    Fire Forum for the SecondSupervisorial District. Yours

    truly got promoted to the media table.The candidates are seated in this order

    from left to right: Board of EqualizationMember Michelle Steel, Coast Commu-nity College District Trustee JimMoreno, Assemblyman Allan Mansoor,and Huntington Beach Councilman JoeCarchio. Moreno is a Democrat whilethe rest are Republicans.

    The media panelists are NorbertoSantana of the Voice of OC, AliciaLopez of the Daily Pilot, Jack Wu ofthe OC Register, John Canalis of theDaily Pilot, and Barbara Venezia of the

    Daily Pilot/OC Register.(7:02 PM): Canalis asks if the can-didates would forego a Supervisor-ial pension.

    Steel would forego the pension.Moreno would donate the

    pension to an account to fundnonprofit organizations. Hewould do the same with hiscommission stipends.

    Mansoor says he wouldtake the pension becausehe is not independentlywealthy and does not havea home in Rancho PalosVerdes (referencingSteel). He says he would

    take the lower of two pension formulasoffered at the County (Editors Note: thevoters approved a June 2012 ballot

    measure mandating Supervisors pick thelower pension formula.)

    Carchio says he did not accept a pen-sion in Huntington Beach and would notaccept one at the County.

    Canalis asks if the candidates wouldvote to outright ban Supervisorial pen-sions.

    Moreno sayshe would not.

    Wu asks

    Moreno aboutpension reform.

    Moreno sayspension manage-ment would needto be examined.

    Venezia says allthe candidatesWeb sites ab-stractly speak of

    pension reformwithout details.

    Mansoor sayshe would lead byexample.

    Steel says un-

    funded liabilities are a problem andnotes the County was 100% funded in2000. She says economic growth and

    demographic shifts combinedwith rates of return must be ac-counted for. She speaks about therecent amortization changes atOCERS.

    Mansoor says he left the Sher-iffs Department to go to the As-sembly where he has no pension.

    Carchio speaks of the need foremployees to pay for their entireemployee pension contribution.

    Lopez asks Steel about her en-dorsement from SheriffHutchens. She asks about offering araise to deputies in exchange for them

    paying their entire employee contribu-

    tion.Steel points to the example of OCEA.She says she wants to look at the num-

    bers to be sure of what solution shewould pursue.

    Mansoor opposes the pay raise be-cause it would increase the pension ob-

    ligation.Santana asks Mansoor about the

    risk of deputies being poached byneighboring agencies.

    Mansoor says these are difficulttimes and difficult decisions needto be made to make the County

    solvent.Wu asks Mansoor about lead-

    ing by example by refusing the

    pension.Mansoor says it would be irresponsi-

    ble to ask employees to entirely give uptheir pensions.

    Santana asks how would spendingmore to pay down the pension liabilityaffect spending on other County pro-grams and services.

    Steel points to waste, fraud, and abuse.She gives an example of verifying wel-fare eligibility, modeling after a SanDiego County program that saved$500,000. Steel says the OCERS invest-ment returns should improve to reduceunfunded pension liability.

    (Santana interjects several times de-

    manding specifics.)

    Moreno speaks about asking collegeemployees to tell his college board aboutwaste, and they found $10 million in

    waste.Lopez asks Steel about how to fix

    CalOptima.

    Steel says there needs to be moretransparency and points to the appoint-ment of two Supervisors at CalOptima.

    Moreno says experts need to bebrought in to fix the problems. He saysthe Board must have experts managingCalOptima.

    Carchio says in Huntington Beachthat they got employees to retire early,implement a 4/10 schedule, and othercreative ideas related to balance the

    budget after the loss of Redevelop-ment Agencies. He says that all weheard about was RDA abuses, butRDAs did good things. He says cre-ativity with RDAs shows how to solvethese problems.

    Venezia speaks about the 2012 elec-tion for Assembly. She asks about thecriticism that Mansoor is leaving hisAssembly seat early since hes nottermed out.

    Mansoor said he supported DonHansen and jumped in when Hansendropped out. He criticizes Steel formoving to Orange County to run forSupervisor as a platform to run forCongress.

    Venezia asks him to answer the origi-nal question.

    Mansoor again points to Hansen drop-ping out.

    Venezia and Wu ask if he will jump

    ship if elected Supervisor.

    My Texas DriveO

    ne day, a long time ago (I was muchyounger) I was driving across a highbridge over the Houston Ship Channel.

    As I neared the top of the bridge, I noticed ayoung man fixin to jump. ("fixin to" in Texasmeans getting ready to...I rad that some where)

    I stopped my car, rolled down the window andsaid, "Please don't jump! Think of your dearmother and father."

    He replied, "My mom and dad are both dead;I'm going to jump."

    I said, "Well, think of your sweet wife and pre-cious children."

    He replied, "I'm not married, and I don't haveany kids."

    I said, "Well, then you just remember theAlamo."

    He replied, ''What's the Alamo?''I finally replied, Well, bless your heart! - You

    just go ahead and jump.... you little, Yankee, De-mocrat, SOB... Youre holding up traffic;!

    Case YouDid Not

    NoticeHappy New Year AmericaHere is what happened onJanuary 1st 2014:

    Top Income tax bracketwent from 35% to 39.6%

    Top Income payroll taxwent from 37.4% to 52.2%

    Capital Gains tax wentfrom 15% to 28%

    Dividends tax went from15% to 39.6%

    Estate tax went from 0%to 55%

    Remember this fact: if youhave money, the Politicianswant it.

    These taxes were allpassed only with Votes fromone of the two political par-ties votes,

    These taxes wereall passed in con-vert with the af-fo rdab lecare act!

    OK, so we've all heard what thestereotypical perfect man lookslike -- you know, all tall, dark and

    handsome?Well, maybe that stereotype will

    change, because a new study re-vealed shorter men might livelonger than taller guys.

    Hawaii News Now reports heightmatters and says a team of Hawaii

    researchers conducted the largest,longest, most thorough aging studyyet to learn more about it.

    "The folks that were 5'2" andshorter lived the longest. They alsohave vastly lower insulin levels;they get less cancer."

    "Everybody is born with so manycells, and if you're bigger you havemore cells, so you have to growmore."

    Called the Honolulu Heart Study,this is the first study that confirms

    body size is linked to what has beendubbed the "longevity gene." It istechnically called FOX03.

    In the ongoing study, which hasbeen underway for nearly 50 years,more than 8,000 men with Japaneseancestry underwent a series of tests.The shorter men outlived their tallercounterparts, and today, around 250of them are still alive.

    Scientists thinkshorter people have areserve of cells thatcan be used later inlife, which could bepart of the reason forthe longer life span.Shorter men also car-ried a more enhancedform of the longevitygene.

    But, as Slate's head-line points out , don't

    hold your breath. Science is a longway from helping us cheat death.

    "The bigger-picture problem isthat human longevity is aconfluence of so manyfactors - genes, nutrition,lifestyle, luck - interact-ing in so many complexways that there is un-likely ever to be a sure-fire way to live to 120."

    But just in case, certainfoods have been said tostimulate that longevitygene we mentioned, in-

    cluding turmeric, greentea, beer and wine ... inmoderation.

    Alittle girl asked her mom, "How did humans appear?" The momsaid, "God made Adam & Eve & they had offspring." Latershe asked her dad & hesaid, "Humans evolvedfrom monkeys." The con-fused girl returned to askher mom; "Mom, how is itpossible that humans werecreated by God & dad saidthey evolved from mon-keys?" The mother an-swered, "Well dear, I toldyou about my side of thefamily & your dad told youabout his."

    Nanny, Nanny, Nanny Goat!

    More than 50 acres of the

    Los Cerritos Wetlandswere recently burned at a

    fire near the Long Beach Market-place Marsh. This is the biggestbrush fire Ive seen in Long Beach in20 years, said LB Deputy Fire ChiefRich Brandt. "It happened very

    quickly and may have been a man-made fire. Hours earlier, police ar-rested an arson suspect for a separateincident in the area."

    "Super-hot weather, gusty winds,and perhaps an ill-intentioned humancaused a great deal of trouble as localand county fire fighters fought tobring the blaze under control," saidElizabeth Lambe, Executive Direc-tor of the Los Cerritos Wetlands

    Land Trust. "While the fire damage

    was terrible, we're very thankful that,

    as far as we know now, none of thenearby structures or people were se-riously harmed."

    With the wind blowing embers thatcaught some palm trees and otherthings on fire, a precautionary evac-uation took place at some surround-

    ing businesses and part of the nearbySeaPort Marina Hotel. "A heartfeltthanks to all the firefighters, policeand ordinary citizens who helpedprotected lives, property and ourfragile local wetlands," Lambe said."All of us who live in and care aboutSouth East Long Beach are grateful."Third District Long Beach Council-man Gary DeLong said things areback to normal and he is appreciative

    of the quick actions from LBFD.

    Please Vote June 3rdJoe Carchio,CandidateOrange County

    Board of Supervisors2nd District

    From the desk of Kim Kramer

    Downtown Property Owner

    City of Huntington Beach

    Re: Councilman Joe Carchio

    Dear Councilman Carchio,

    As the President of the Hunt-

    ington Beach Downtown Resi-

    dents Association (HBDRA), I

    regret to inform you that our

    organization does not endorse

    candidates other than those

    running for local office, ie City

    Council and City Attorney. With that said, however, I am very

    pleased to express my utmost appreciation for your support of nu-

    merous downtown issues, and extend my personal endorsement for

    your candidacy for Orange County Supervisor.

    In considering this letter, I think back to many of the downtown

    issues that you have supported and provided inspired leadership.

    The relocation of the downtown food bank is one such example that

    comes to mind. It was significant!

    It was your leadership during the city council meeting that swayed

    the council to a successful and swift decision. That decision resulted

    in a much better opportunity for the food bank to serve a greater

    number of those in need. It also eliminated those that were abusing

    the system. And additionally, it provided significant improvement inpublic safety and quality of life for thousands of downtown residents

    and visitors. Thank you so much for your leadership on this and so

    many other important issues.

    Your experience along with your unwavering dedication and com-

    mitment to residential quality of life issues are exactly the qualities

    that will serve our district well once you are elected.

    Best regards,

    Kim Kramer

    Mansoor starts to say that he wants aresident of Orange County to be Super-visor.

    Wu interrupts to ask how long doessomeone need to be an Orange Countyresident. He points to Mansoors en-dorsement of Jim Righeimer for CostaMesa City Council after Righeimer

    moved from Fountain Valley.Theres crosstalk between Mansoor

    and Wu.Steel jumps in to point out shes lived

    in Orange County since 2011. Shespeaks about immigrating from Korea.She asks if she needs to be born here.

    Carchio speaks about living in OC for35 years and serving on numerous OC

    boards.Steel asks if its so important to have

    a long-term Mansoor why he doesn'tsupport Carchio whos lived in OC fordecades.

    Mansoor says he supported Hansen.Lopez asks Mansoor what legislation

    hes passed in Sacramento.He points to various pending pieces oflegislation.

    Lopez asks if hes accomplishedsomething as a legislator.

    Mansoor points to the challenges ofbeing in the minority when theres a su-permajority.

    Wu asks Steel about her accomplish-ments as a member of the Board ofEqualization minority party.

    Steel points to several items, includ-ing: *returning 1/2 of $267,000,000 totaxpayers

    *switching late payment interest frommonthly rates to daily rates, so taxpayerswho are one day late only pay a days

    interest rather than a months interestSteel lists several other items that this

    blogger can't keep up with. She says sheis a consensus builder who can getthings done.

    Moreno interjects that he has workedin the private sector, worked for an LACounty Supervisor, served on the Col-lege Board, and been a father.

    Venezia asks about Diane Harkeyshusbands investment litigation sinceSteel has endorsed Harkey for Steelsown Board of Equalization seat.

    Steel says the courts already ruled thatDiane Harkey was not part of this issue.She points to Harkeys accomplish-

    ments in the Assembly.Mansoor points to his track record inthe Assembly. He says he was willing tostand up to the Mike Carona machine.

    prison.Mansoor says Steel is backed by a lot

    of people who backed Carona.Santana repeatedly asks Mansoor to

    name names while Mansoor declines todo so each time.

    Santana then asks what each candidateviews is the role of a County Supervisor.

    Moreno says the County is an arm ofthe state. He says the County takes careof social welfare, public health, and pub-

    lic safety issues. He says experts need tobe running the agencies.

    Santana asks for specifics.Moreno speaks about solving con-

    stituent problems (i.e. casework).Mansoor points to OCTA and the 405

    toll lanes.Wu and Santana ask Mansoor about

    other agencies.Mansoor says they need to let him fin-

    ish his answer. He speaks about publicpressure forcing OCTAs hand on the405.

    Santana asks about OCFA.Mansoor says he would have a hands

    on approach.

    Santana asks what that means.

    Mansoor says he would audit theOCFA and points to his service on theAssembly Audit Committee.

    Carchio says the OCFA board is toolarge and needs to be reduced in sizefrom 25, pointing to his experience onthe 35-member Vector Control Board.

    Santana asks what size the OCFA

    Board should be.Carchio says he doesn't have enough

    information to determine an exactnumber.

    Carchio argues he sits on more boardsthan Supervisors or Assembly membersdo.

    Venezia asks how much each candi-date has raised for their campaign to gettheir message out.

    Wu says the candidates should ex-clude loans from their numbers.

    Carchio says $75,000.Mansoor says $100,000.Moreno says $40,000.Steel says $550,000.

    Steel says raising money is hard work.Mansoor speaks about issues matter-ing more and says he has a history of

    beating better funded candidates. Hepoints to his endorsements from outgo-ing Supervisor John Moorlach and sev-eral district mayors.

    Lopez asks Mansoor about his repu-tation on immigration and the Latinovote.

    Mansoor says he is not anti-immi-grant. He says he supports legal immi-gration and is the son of twoimmigrants. He says his actions inCosta Mesa only related to illegal im-migrants who committed other crimes.He says Steel has said different things

    to different people, telling some thatshe opposes the Lincoln Club plan andtelling others that she supports aspectsof it. He says he supports eVerify, butSteel opposes it.

    Steel says she is an immigrant. Shesupports a guest worker program. Shesupports the Lincoln Club plan. She op-

    poses eVerify.Wu asks Mansoor about the legisla-

    tive letter he signed that got sent tomembers of Congress.

    Mansoor says the published portionwas out of context from the letter hesigned.

    Moreno speaks about the DREAM

    Act. He says these students are indistin-guishable from kids born in the UnitedStates. He calls for prevailing wage inany guest worker program. He saysLAX is where illegal immigrants comefrom. He points to the deportation ofAustralians.

    Carchio says he went to a Sacramentopress conference with AssemblymanJimmy Gomez and his bill on humantrafficking. Carchio speaks about highlevels of human trafficking from Chinaand Vietnam. He wants an equitable set-tlement where everyone is treated like ahuman being.

    Venezia asks why she should vote foreach of the candidates.

    Steel speaks of her BOE track recordand her efforts on behalf of taxpayers.

    Moreno points to his experienceworking for an LA County Supervisorand his service on the Coast CommunityCollege Board.

    Mansoor says he will stand up to spe-cial interests and political machines. Hesays he has an open door policy and willalways listen to constituents.

    Carchio points to his lengthy time asan OC resident. He speaks about his

    business owner experience, his experi-ence on the City Council, and his expe-rience on regional and state boards.

    Graffiti RemovalThe Public WorksD e p a r t m e n tGraffiti Removalprogram responds toover 2,500 reports ofgraffiti on public andprivate propertythroughout the city.Staff is able to re-move most graffitiwithin 1-2 businessdays from City prop-erty such as block

    walls, play equipment, restrooms, sidewalks, andstreet signs. There are cases where Public Worksmust take additional steps before graffiti is re-moved. One such instance is when the graffiti ison private property. For private property, PublicWorks staff notifies the owner about the graffition their property and provides the owner the op-portunity to remove it. In certain cases when theowner gives writ-ten consent, Public Works canremove graffiti from private property that can beseen from the public rights of way. Another in-stance is when graffiti is found on property orequipment maintained by an outside agency suchas a school district, County of Orange, or utilitycompany. When graffiti happens on outsideagency property, Public Works notifies the appro-priate agency of the graffiti.

    The most common methods used to removegraffiti are: Painting Out Used on most buildings and

    Jordan Kobritz is a former attorney, CPA, andMinor League Baseball team owner. He is a Pro-fessor and Chair of the Sport Management Depart-ment at SUNY Cortland and is a contributing authorto the Business of Sports Network and maintains theblog: http://sportsbeyondthelines.com Jordan canbe reached at [email protected]

    You can filethis oneunder in-evitable. On

    May 20, eight former NFL players filed a classaction lawsuit against the league alleging thatteams provided them and the five hundred otherplayers who have joined the suit with illegaldrugs.

    According to the complaint, players were giventhe medications without prescriptions in order topermit them to play through injuries suffered onthe field of play. Such conduct allegedly led toaddiction and

    long-term med-ical complica-tions, a numberof which weredetailed in thecomplaint.

    Players saythey were givenwhite en-velopes - somemarked forsleep, others forpain fromteam personnelwithout appropriate prescriptions. The medica-tions were designed to reduce inflammation, killpain, and allow the players to sleep the night be-

    fore games. The players also allege that the drugswere addictive, were administered in illegaldoses, without proper medical oversight, andwith very little or no explanation of the risks anddangers associated with taking them. When theirplaying careers ended, their pain and drug de-pendence continued. Without access to freedrugs, many of the players resorted to streetsources, with some players ending up broke andhomeless.

    Former Chicago Bears quarterback Jim McMa-hon says he became addicted to painkillers, at onepoint downing more than 100 Percocet tablets per

    month. He claims neither

    team doctors nor trainers gotprescriptions for the pills,kept records of their use orexplained the side effects tohim. McMahon, who suf-fered a broken neck and ankleduring his 15-year playing ca-reer, says he was repeatedlypushed back on the fieldwith the aid of illegal medica-tions.

    Ex-San Francisco 49erscenter Jeremy Newberry suf-fers from severe kidney fail-

    ure his kidneys operate at 30 percent of normal- as a result of the painkillers and anti-inflamma-tories, including the drug Toradol, he received

    from team doctors and trainers. Toradol isbanned in a number of European countries andcan only be used in England in a hospital. YetNewberry told a San Francisco TV station that ongame days, The line (outside the training room)was crazyIts almost like a cattle call when youhave 20 to 25 guys standing with their pants halfdown waiting in line for a doctor whos got ahundred different syringes lined up and you walkthrough, theyre sticking you one at a timeNewberry, now 38 and retired for five years, hasbeen told he is likely facing a kidney transplant.

    People who make illegal drugs available on thestreet are called dealers. Those who engage in

    similar activity in the NFL go by the name doc-tor or trainer. Which name is more accuratein this instance may ultimately be answered in acourt of law. If the allegations in the complaintare proven, the players may not be the only oneswho are feeling the pain.

    Connecting the visual image of the poppy with the sacrifice of

    service made by our veterans has been an important goal ofthe American Legion Auxiliary Poppy Program since its in-

    ception in 1921. On Memorial Day and Veterans Day, millions of red

    crepe paper poppiesall handmade by veterans as part of their thera-

    peutic rehabili tationare distributed across the country in exchange

    for donations that go directly to assist disabled and hospitalized veter-

    ans in our communities.The Poppy Program raises community awareness and respect for our

    veterans by educating Auxiliary members and the public about the symbolof the poppy, taken from a line in the poem In Flanders Fields writtenon the battlefront during World War I by Lt. Col. John McCrae, M.D.

    The red remembrance poppy has become a familiar emblem of Re-membrance Day due to the poem "In Flanders Fields". These poppiesbloomed across some of the worst battlefields of Flanders in World WarI, their brilliant red color an appropriate symbol for the blood spilled inthe war.

Wed liketo thank all studentsthat participated inthe contest by usingtheir creativity tosend the message ofthe drought condi-tions that we havestatewide and for re-minding us to use waterwisely. Congratulations,River!

    On Friday May 9, the Orange County SeniorCitizens Advisory Council (SCAC) pre-sented the commendations for Outstanding

    Service award to Huntington Beach Senior Serv-ices volunteers, Helen Cleveland and Linda Herd.The award was given in recognition of their dis-

    tinguished ser-vice to the senior citizens of OrangeCounty. SCAC is an advisory board that reports onaging related issues to the Orange County Boardof Supervisors.

    Helen Cleveland has volunteered at the frontdesk of Seniors Outreach every Monday morningfor 15 years! She provides administrative supportfor Transportation, Home Delivered Meals, andCare Management. She makes daily care-calls tohome-bound seniors and those residents look for-ward to their Monday morning chat with Helen.She is known for her kindness, compassion, andbeautiful telephone voice. At almost 92, Helen stillhas sharp computer

    and organizationalskills. Nobody but

    Helen is allowed to filethe transportation maps

    because Helen is surethat alphabetizing isbecoming a lost art.She is an example ofaging gracefully. Eventhough her mobility ischallenged and she re-cently moved to as-sisted living, Helenkeeps volunteering.She says, There isnothing Id rather dothan volunteer in aplace where Im appre-ciated and where I amdoing something con-structive. All of theseniors who look for-

    ward to her phone calls

    and the staff she keeps whipped into shape appre-ciate Helen tremendously!

    Huntington Beach Senior Services has neverherd no from Linda Herd. She is an eagerbeaver who helps out whenever and whereverneeded. Linda began as a volunteer in 2012, and

    in 2013 had 310 hours! Linda serves lunch, pro-vides office support in transportation, assists withtaxes, delivers meals and holiday meals, assistsat special events, is a volunteer ambassador, anda volunteer escort (not that kind she jokes).Whatever Linda does she does with a huge smile!On a recent Escort trip, she told her passenger,We are going to have fun! The passenger ar-gued But Im going to the dentist. No matter,Linda and the passenger were both gigglingthroughout the trip. Linda says, The people Iserve thank me but what they dont realize is thatthey always make my day!

    Water: Festivaland Facts

    The Orange County

    Water District, Dis-neyland Resort and

    the National WaterResearch Institute,hosted the 18th annualChildrens Water Ed-ucation Festival thisyear at the Universityof California, Irvine

    (UCI). Nearly 7,000 third, fourth and fifth grade OrangeCounty students attended the free field trip to learn aboutwater and the environment; all curriculum correspondedto California Science Standards.

    The drought was a primary topic, as well as the need to

    practice lifelong water-use efficiency. In California, we are

    expected to experience droughts three out of every tenyears. Knowing this probability OCWD and its partnersinvested in teaching youth how to prepare for and respondto these conditions.

    The Festival is a structured event and is not open to thegeneral public. Orange County students are registered inadvance. During the event, students remain with theirteacher and parent chaperones as they rotate every 30 min-utes to a different activity. 65 public and private organiza-

    tions took part in the Festival by hosting ahands-on activity. Most activities took place inAldrich Park, which is located in the center ofcampus surrounded by grass, trees and the var-ious colleges, while a few activities were hostedinside lecture halls

    Educational topics covered at the Festival in-cluded the drought, the water cycle, groundwa-ter and surface water protection, wetlands

    preservation, recycling, pollution preventionand water treatment, distribution and conserva-tion, and local environmental issues. To learnmore about the event or to view a brief video,please visit www.childrenwaterfestival.com.

    Among the informational items the studentstook home with them was a list of facts aboutwater that is worth reprinting here because weoften forget what an unusual and precious liquidwater is.

    THE FACTS ARE:

    75% of the Earth's surface is water. 97% of the Earth's water is seawater.

    2% of the Earth's water sup-ply is frozen in icebergs andglaciers.

    Less than 1% of Earth's

    water supply is available for

    drinking.

    The Earth is the only planetin our solar system where it rains.

    Oceans cover about 10,500,000 square miles of theEarth's surface.

    Water serves as nature's thermometer, helping to reg-ulate the temperature of Earth's surface.

    The world's largest ocean is the Pacific Ocean (64 mil-lion square miles).

    The river that carries the most water in the world is theAmazon River (it carries about 8 trillion gallon per day).

    The total miles of pipelines and aqueducts in the U.S.and Canada is approximately one million miles (enoughto circle the Earth 40 times).

    The longest river in the world is the Nile River (about4,145 miles long).

    The shortest river in the world is the Roe River inMontana (about 201 feet long).

    The worlds largest freshwater lake is Lake Superior

    (32,000 square miles). The world's deepest and oldest lake is Lake Baikal in

    Siberia (6,365 feet deep and 25 million years old). The Ogallala aquifer in southwestern U.S. is the

    world's largest underground body of water. The tallest waterfall in the world is Angel Falls in

    Venezuela (3,212 foot drop). Most of the world's water supply is used for agricul-

    ture. The water in the Dead Sea is 7 times saltier than ocean

    water. Water is the only substance on earth naturally found in

    3 forms...solid, liquid and gas.

    Cathy Green was elected to OCWD in November 2010. She served two termson the Huntington Beach City Council and was Mayor twice. Huntington Beach

    has been home to the Green Family over 41 years

    Dear EarthTalk:A recent study

    showed that BisphenolA (BPA) was hardly the

    human health risk researchersonce believed it to be. Should I still try to avoid productsthat may contain it? ~ Carolyn Danes, Waukesha, WI

    Some 93 percent of us carry traces of the synthetic com-pound Bisphenol A (BPA)in our bloodstreams, so itsno wonder that public healthadvocates are concernedabout its potential effects.Developed in the 1950s tostrengthen plastics andepoxy resins, BPA is todayused in a wide range ofproducts, including manyplastic food and drink con-tainers, the lining of mostcans, some paper products,

    and dental sealants.But with widespread useof BPA has come increasedscrutiny regarding its poten-tial impact on human health.When ingested, BPA mim-ics naturally occurringhuman hormones and thuscan potentially interferewith the bodys endocrineand reproductive workings.According to the nonprofitBreast Cancer Fund, previ-ous research has linked BPAexposure to with increased risk for cardiovascular disease,miscarriages, decreased birth weight at term, breast andprostate cancer, reproductive and sexual dysfunctions, al-tered immune system activity, metabolic problems and di-

    abetes in adults, and cognitive and behavioral development

    in young children. These concerns have led the EuropeanUnion, Canadaand more recently the U.S.to ban theuse of BPA in baby bottles and other items geared towardbabies and children.

    Meanwhile, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration(FDA) maintains that typical low-level BPA exposure doesnot pose any health risk. A February 2014 study by FDAresearchers found that low doses of the compound did notaffect the health of rats over a 90-day study period. While

    study rats exposed tohigher doses of BPAhad lower bodyweights, abnormalfemale reproductivedevelopment and al-tered hormone lev-els, there were nosuch effects in ratsexposed to lowerdoses more akin towhat humans experi-ence.

    But critics pointout some flaws inthat study which callits conclusions intoquestion. For one, acontrol group of ratsthat was supposed toremain unexposed toBPA somehow hadlevels of the com-pound in their bloodequivalent to thelowest-dose studypopulation. FDA re-

    searchers maintain that this contamination of the controlgroup did not affect their results because neither group ofrats showed any effects given their low-dose exposure. An-other issue is that the researchers did not look at neurolog-

    ical effects such as changes in learning, memory and

    behavior.What needs to follow is whether these exposures are

    causing neurobehavioral changes, Harvard epidemiologistJoe Braun told Environmental Health News, adding that

    previous research has shown that estrogen receptors in thebrains of rats were triggered by low doses of BPA. Hope-fully [the FDA] will address that down the road.

    More research is underway still. The February 2014 FDAstudy is part of an ongoing two-year assessment of the tox-icity of BPA. Dozens of university studies are also inprogress to shed more light on just how risky our use ofBPA may be. Consumers should continue to take precau-tions to limit their intake of BPA by avoiding polycarbonateplastic food and drink containers and metal cans, and byrefraining from putting plastic items in the microwaveaprocess that can expedite the leaching of BPA into food.

    Stan Markuze | PartMyRide.com say shineon when it comes to our cars and the sum-mer..."When the sun shines and it's warm

    outside, everybody wants to have a car withshiny, beautiful paint. Like everything else onyour car, its paint job needs to be maintained ifyou want it to look the same way it did when it

    rolled off the assembly line. Fortunately, keep-ing your ride's coat sharp isn't particularly dif-ficult or expensive. Follow these five simplesteps, and your car will shimmer like the dayyou drove it off the lot.

    1. WASH REGULARLY

    The first step to preserving your paint job isthe most obvious. In the normal course ofdriving, your car becomes covered in dust, tarand other dirty particles from the environment.Over time, these particles can get imbedded inyour paint and become difficult to remove. Bywashing your car every 2-4 weeks with qualitysoap, you will prevent stubborn particles from

    getting stuck in there. Using a reputable brandof soap will protect the finish and preventstreaks and water spots.

    2. PARK IN A GARAGE OR COVERED

    SPOT

    The summer sun can be harmful to your ve-hicle's finish if your car is always parkedunder its punishing ray
