SPCA Rescues Two Emaciated Dogs On November 5 the SPCA for Monterey County rescued two severely emaciated dogs from a house in north Salinas. The dogs, both hound mixes, were very underweight. The female, named Chicken, weighed just 10.9 pounds when her healthy weight should be 15-20 lbs. The male, named Cowboy, weighted just 16.9 lbs, when he should weigh 20-25 pounds. Both dogs also suffered from flea infestations and were understandably very hungry. SPCA Humane Investigations officers are still investigating and will likely submit today’s case to the Monterey County Office of the District Attorney for their consideration of multiple counts of animal abuse under the California State Penal Code. To report animal cruelty and neglect, please contact the SPCA at 831-373-2631. All calls are confidential. To donate to help animals like these, please call the SPCA or donate online at www.SPCAmc.org/rescue. You can also donate items to rescued pets by visiting our Amazon Wish List: www.spcamc.org/amazon.

They are also dog friendly. a man with his bare hands and picked the unknowing Steve up as a cover; they were run down on the Oklahoma-Missouri border. The convict apologized to Steve as he was taken away in cuffs. On that same trip, a day later in Ohio, he got a ride from a man just released from the Ohio State Penitentiary. He, too, had served a sentence for murder. He reminded Steve of Lenny in Steinbeck’s “Of Mice and Men,” powerful and gentle. The relationship ended with an all night drive and conversation, the convict wondering if his family would accept him. His name was Lee. Finally he married Nancy Burtch, his high school sweetheart, and settled in Los Angeles where they both worked. A baby girl they named Amy was born during these early days, and Anne would follow a few years later. His newspaper career started in Southern California and ultimately brought him and his family to the Monterey Peninsula, which is when we met. John, my husband and I were involved on the board of Children’s Experimental Theater and had started a fund-raising group. We were given the barn at the Mission Ranch for a party at which we met the new theater critic. As time progressed we got to know him and, eventually, Nancy very well as we all were so involved in the art community. When our older daughter, Ellen, was at York, she and fellow students wrote a play which was accepted in the state wide competition (eventually it won the regional prize). Against his own policy (he never covered student plays) Steve came and wrote a nice review with a picture for the Monterey Herald. By then I had joined a book club, of which I will speak in a later column. Anne Germain was the society editor and we became very good friends for a while. Poor Anne, she simply didn’t know how to be loved by people. Steve was then writing the golf column and challenged Anne to a game. As she didn’t play, the views of the match written from the perspective of each reporter were wry and funny. A picture depicted tall, lanky Anne making an effort to swing a club. Steve left the Herald during one of the shakeups. The Monterey Peninsula Museum used his talents. However, his goal was play-writing and he thought he came close when one was accepted by the Squaw Valley writers’ conference, but it died. He wrote two documentary films plays for the museum which were narrated by Jack Lemon and won national awards. Both have been telecast on public television. When I started managing the SPCA Benefit Shop in 1986, Steve was opening his art gallery. Our friendship was refueled and we saw a great deal of him, Nancy, and Piper, their wonderful Cairn terrier, who died a couple of years ago. His love of animals is contagious and I was thrilled to find that AFRP for which I started their Treasure Shop is one of his favorite groups — there was a Piper Fund established and many people donated in the name of the little staunch dog we loved so well. The gallery Michael Hemp, Cannery Row Historian, appeared on the Shagbag Show has been a success, featuring California artists, early and contemporary.

They didn’t understand that it was a French accent; they only knew she talked funny. My mother said that my grandfather was embarassed by her accent, so she did not teach any of her children to speak her native language. There was no support for her financially, either. She took in laundry and ironing. My father had five paper routes to help support the family in the Depression years. He delivered chickens. His brother repaired radios. Would she have been better off in France? My father wondered that, years later in an offhand conversation though he never talked with his own children about what she had been through. But my mother said that my grandmother was “fiercely patriotic.” She raised her children to love this country and to serve it. My oldest uncle was in the Air Force, my father a Marine.

But they will be dry facts and will tell me very little about what was going through his mind. I will likely never know what he, and my grandmother, really felt for each other, nothing about their hopes and fears. Nothing about what the war was like for them.

There will e a web events as well as public workshops, one of which is to be held in Salinas. “California’s population is projected to grow to 50 million people in the next decade and a half, highlighting the need to not only preserve existing transportation infrastructure but also to invest in new transit modes that move ever-increasing numbers of people and goods,” said Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty. The purpose of the forthcoming “Interregional Transportation Strategic Plan” is to identify the best ways to invest in interregional transportation corridors to strengthen California’s economy and livability while reducing the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change. Regions around the state have been adopting new “sustainable communities’ strategies” that shift investments to provide greater mobility choice. Meanwhile, the state must seek to improve interregional travel in a sustainable way that integrates well with these regional strategies. For highways, the state will apply a “complete streets” approach where highways are designed to improve all modes of transportation. For rail, the state will explore im- proved integration of rail systems, including the high-speed rail system, to better serve interregional travelers. Caltrans will also look at the interregional systems of trails and bikeways, and where those can be improved to support active transportation. A recently released California Household Travel Survey revealed that, statewide, 23 percent of household trips are made via non-car transportation, more than double than 10 years ago. As part of the upcoming public outreach, Caltrans will host five 2014 public work- shops and a webinar to solicit input and feedback on how to draft a modern transportation plan for interregional corridors. After incorporating public feedback, Caltrans will write a draft document for further public comment in February 2015.

This week’s accounts of molten lava creeping toward Pahoa town on Hawaii’s Big Island reminded me of events I witnessed years earlier along the same shoreline. The Kilauea volcano now threatening Pahoa has been erupting pretty steadily for more than 30 years. In year 12, lava first reached the ocean near Kalapana, a centuries- old Hawaiian fishing and farming community on Hawaii’s southeast coast. For the first time in living memory, one of Kilauea’s periodic and usually harmless eruptions seemed likely to destroy an actual town. In addition to being a tragedy and an anomaly, this was also a news story. I was working for a Maui daily at the time, and the paper sent me to Kalapana to see what I could learn. The first thing I learned is that lava can set paved roads on fire. This spectacle so amazed me that I spent some time photographing a burning highway, which led to an- other discovery. As it burns, pavement releases thick, dark, toxic, throat-searing smoke that can cause sensational headaches. Within an hour, I had one that lasted four days. Other surprises followed. Having previously seen eruptions only at their source and from the air, I was shocked by how slowly lava moves once it reaches flat ground. I had an image of molten magma splashing downhill in fiery rivers and blazing torrents, but the reality was more prosaic. The lava crept. It crawled. It accreted. Its internal temperature was 2,000 degrees, but it moved like strawberry jam. How slow was it? You could set a chair in the path of the oncoming lava, sit down and read The Hilo Tribune. When your shins got too hot, you could simply scoot the chair back. The lava moved so slowly you could kneel before it, lower your ear, and listen to one of nature’s oddest sounds. This was the metallic clink, tinkle and chime of LUNCH & DINNER micro-thin flakes of cooling lava “exfoliating” from the main blob as it puddled forward. It sounded like the world’s tiniest xylophone. The lava sang this enchanting siren song, but it also kept rolling. That was another $ 95 surprise. How could this torpid, acrid-smelling mineral sludge keep moving and spread- 8 ing? And how could this creeping tide possibly harm the town? Why not just dig ditches EVERY DAY! and build walls to divert it? Monterey County’s To test this notion, I made daily visits to a shoulder-high, solid-looking rock wall in the lava’s path. On the first day, the wall held easily. On day two, the lava had pooled Best Locals’ Menu! up twice as high, but the wall still held.

As the lava neared and then entered the town, I interviewed some residents. Most were surprisingly accepting of the situation. “Madame Pele gives the land, and she takes it back,” shrugged one old-timer, referring to the temperamental Hawaiian volcano goddess. Another, newer resident said the risk was worth it. “When you live here, you know you’re living on the edge. That’s why we like it.” The lava’s arrival in Kalapana prompted diverse responses from two congregations. The town’s Catholics worshipped in a 125-year-old wooden church famed for its interior murals. To save the historic building, volunteer crews worked night and day to jack the church off its foundation and ease it onto a huge tractor-trailer which drove away minutes ahead of the flames. The painted church still hosts services. Kalapana’s Protestants had a more generic place of worship and a different outlook. “That’s just a building,” one explained, pointing to the endangered structure. “The people are the church. We’ll find another building.” Page 18 • CEDAR STREET Times • November 7, 2014 Concert to Benefit Housing Program Team Up to Fight Arthritis for Single Homeless Women Make Jingle Bell Run/Walk a Holiday Tradition Wanda Sue Parrott 2014 Jingle Bell Run/Walk® Saturday, December 13, 2014 at Lovers Point, Pacific Grove The Arthritis Foundation is calling for people to take action against arthritis by par- Homeless in Paradise ticipating in the fourth annual Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis.

In 2013, SOP emergency shelters provided housing and support services for up to six months to 489 adults and families; transitional housing programs provided housing and support services, for up to 24 months, to 193 adults and their families. A start toward serving the most highly overlooked segment of Monterey area women without adequate housing is the Shelter Outreach Plus “Women in Transition” program slated to open in February 2015. Located in Marina, it will provide 12 to 18 beds to single women who have no children. Shelter Outreach Plus is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit, charitable organization whose ongoing programs include: • Mobile Outreach to the street homeless.

[10-31-14] JV didn’t fare as well, losing to King City 13-0. The Breakers wasted no time on their first possession of the game, by driving the ball 78 yards in 2:44 for a touchdown, a 1-yard keeper by Anthony Coppla. On the ensuing kick-off, the Breakers attempted an onside kick and recovered it at the 50-yard line. Kolby Foster would finish the drive by taking it in from 8 yards out to put the Breakers up 12-0. The offense sputtered after their second touchdown and could not put any more points on the board in the first half. “We kind of shot ourselves in the foot on some penalties,” Jason Leach said of his team’s lack of scoring in the first half. Defensively, the Breakers continued their strong play by creating two turn- overs, and holding the Mustangs’ offense to only 7 points. With just under six minutes remaining in the first half, King City put together a long drive that started at their own 12-yard line. After getting the ball to the Breaker 20-yard line, the Breaker defense held strong, creating three incompletions and get- ting a sack to force a turnover of downs right before the half.

However, Dominic Rose of King City was able to step in front of Coppla’s pass and return it 75 yards for the touchdown bringing them within 20. That is as close as the Mustangs would get though, as the Breakers were able to close out the game and get the victory. Leach, who rushed for 142 yards on 17 carries, said that “beating King City is always a feat, they always play us tough.” He added, “We wanted to control the game and I think we did.” The Breakers (7-1, 5-0) will play their last home game of the season against Greenfield (1-7, 1-4) on Friday, November 7, 2014 at 7:30 p.m.
