Butterfly Population The Pacific Grove Natural History Museum reports Saturday’s monarch count was 6,050. They are still congregated in one very dense cluster on a Monterey pine tree in the yard of 210 Ridge Rd. The good news is that they are visible from the Sanctuary and docents have been able to get a scope on them for the hundreds of visitors passing through each day.

This is the start of the Western Monarch New Year’s Count, and our volunteers will again attempt to count Pacific Grove’s monarchs at 7 additional Monterey County sites, collecting valuable citizen science data for the Xerces Society. WMNYC runs 12/30-1/14.

They willingly did so. She then offered them $20 and they knew better to decline that offer. She then insisted, so only then did they take it. Later in the day, the three boys and their parents learned that the woman they helped is named Nicole, and that she is a mom at the Pacific Grove Co-Op Preschool. Blake, Cameron, and Nathan are graduates of the PG Co-op. The three boys, now sophomores, are JV Basketball players for Pacific Grove High School. Coincidentally, today is a national day of service in light of Martin Luther King. Nicole’s quote: “Not all heroes wear capes! Sometimes they wear basketball shorts! I moved in one week ago when that door slammed behind me. I think I had a minor heart attack! Then I saw your boys hanging on the bar at Robert Down…Thankful to your boys for trusting the blonde lad in slippers. Kudos for raising such sweet, polite boys.”

It probably doesn’t occur to you to drink a gin and tonic (G&T) in January but Living Healthy I’m here to tell you it’s quite a refreshing drink year-round. Imagine a fabulous vacation, just relaxation and enjoyment…… A vacation doesn’t necessarily have to take place far away, a vacation can take place in your own hometown! A vacation is a state of mind, not a place, or length of time, it can be just an hour, or an evening, or morning. It is a matter of taking the time for pleasure, for checking your baggage at the door and opening up to a different frame of mind, even if it is just for an hour or two. Checking the baggage at the door is not always as easy as it sounds. Baggage can be pretty sticky, and clingy, and hard to let go of; almost as if infused with super glue, but really it is worth the effort. Honestly people rarely fall off a cliff by not thinking about the office, or the kids or the errands or bills or heaven forbid the state of the world for an hour or two, and chances are upon return one is more refreshed and able to shoulder those responsibilities even better. One of the most reliable mini vacations is the massage. The wonderful experience of a well done massage can be totally rejuvenating. There was a time when massage was a common component to wellness and recovery from injury and such. Now, more often than not, it is considered a luxury, but is it really? The amount of stress the average American carries around on their back is staggering, and massage is known for being a marvelous stress releaser. Everybody knows that carrying around bundles of stress is hard on the immune system, so there is the immune enhancing aspect to massage as well. Stimulating circulation gets add to the benefits of massage further enhancing health and well being. Now it becomes easier to sleep well and have a ready smile, a worthwhile endeavor in any case. A gin and tonic is a cocktail made with four0 simple ingredients, according to me. There are numerous types of massage offered nowadays from hot stone massage, I am going to walk you through how I make mine and I must say I make good—or at aromatherapy (essential oils) massage, traditional Swedish massage, acupressure mas- least popular with my friends—gin and tonics.

It was quite the compliment, I thought! approaches on the horizon. Typically a massage therapists will have more than one technique at their fingertips, and the amount of training and knowledge of anatomy Where does this cocktail come from, you might be wondering? Well, we have can vary greatly between one therapist and another. It is important to find a massage the British to thank for this wonderful drink. It was created by the army of the British therapist with a compatible sensibility, obviously it is crucial to feel comfortable with East India Company in the 19th Century for the Brits working in India. Tonic water this person. has quinine in it which is a medication used to treat malaria, which was common in Mary Clare Ditton does a full body massage, using not just her hands but her body India. In order to stomach the bitter taste of the quinine, the Brits mixed it with water in the massage process. The effect is impressive. One part of the body is anchored then and sugar, and added gin…brilliant! stretched out by the other part, and the massage takes on a fuller dimension. Mary describes the human touch as a fundamental need and massage like playing music. Ingredients: “There is playing music by ear, and reading music already written, I know the theory For 1 gin and tonic. but I like to massage like playing music by ear, listen to what this particular body wants **Double the ingredients so you can share with a friend or have a double, and use the right now” explains Mary. “Anything that blocks the flow, interrupts life flow, massage whole lime! encourages the flow.” Massage is a grounding and simple way to encourage health. To say that someone is comfortable in their own skin is considered a compliment. 4 fresh ice cubes One avenue to feeling that way, comfortable in your own skin, is to have a relaxing 1 part gin, 1.5 oz. massage.

Think about treating yourself to a massage. After all you have So, in a rocks glass (or, if you’re making a double, I like to use a stemless wine got only one body in this life, why not take good care of it glass), place 4 fresh ice cubes. I say fresh because you don’t want the kind that have freezer burn or smell like other items in the freezer. To that add 1 part gin (try a shot, 1.5 oz.). I like Bombay Sapphire or Hendrick’s, I prefer a more botanical gin for my G&Ts (as opposed to a dry gin, such as Beefeater). All gin is made with juniper which gives it its characteristic botanical taste, or as one friend—not a fan of gin—said, it taste like a Christmas tree. Trader Joe’s sells a nice, very affordable gin, called “The Art of the Still,” and will work quite nicely for a G&T. Add 3 parts (in this case, 3 shots or 4.5 oz.) tonic water. I like Fever Tree which can be found at Grove Market but other brands such as Schweppes works, too. Take a lime and wash it well, halve it, and squeeze the juice into the glass. Once you’ve squeezed it enough, drop it in the glass—I like the taste of the lime zest oils—give the mixture a swirl and cheers! Enjoy!

He’s retiring and moving to Indiana, where his kids and grandkids live and where he has already bought a home. He worked five or six days a week, walking eight to 10 miles a day over those 30 years. A little basic math tells us he walked 78,000 or so miles. He said he went through a pair of shoes every four months. He said he served five different routes across the city, and said that the people in Pacific Grove are much more friendly than the barking dogs. He said he has “only” been bitten twice by dogs, one of which he described as a chihuahua with an alligator mouth. January 19, 2018 • CEDAR STREET Times • Page 11

On May 4 of 2017 we left the AFRP Treasure Shop. When the new Ex- ecutive Director decided he wanted the store to go into a new direction under new management (certainly his prerogative) volunteers left en masse...they had been doing a great job and enjoyed working there. At that time, I was offered the oppor- tunity to open a site for Pacfific Repertory Theatre and Rod Dewar told us he would allow us to sell the contents of the house and would donate to the theatre. We all felt that finding a store would be “a piece of cake” as it were. Not so much. Our initial goal was to locate in Pacfific Grove; however, the ordinance against more benefit shops down town was not to be breached. We were offered a wonderful space at a good rent Despite the pleas city government was not to be dissuaded. We searched high and low. Lighthouse in New Monterey was, at one point, an option but we were concerned about traffic, and lack of parking. We looked at spots in Monterey. A variety of impediments prevented desirable locations. In the meantime, we were working on the Dewar house. Sue, bless her heart, loved to cook and collected thousands of cookbooks. I must confess that we, her friends, fed her habit and if we found a book we thought would appeal we gave it Saber-rattling, name calling and “nuclear button” comparisons between the U.S. to her.

January 19, 2018 • CEDAR STREET Times • Page 13 What does God say about Client Centered Service our transformation? Patrick Ryan Bill Cohen Local Real Estate Update

Reasoning As I was driving the other day, a commercial came on the radio for an attorney describing his “client centered” approach to business. It got me thinking about the phrase “client centered” and what it actually means. Not just what it means to the With God business or businessperson, but also what it means to the client. The word client comes from the latin word clientem meaning “follower, retainer”. Rom 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the In ancient Rome a clientem was a plebeian under the protection and guardianship of renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and a patrician. In the 14th century the Anglo French word clyent came into use with the perfect, will of God.” This transformation process begins with the renewing of our meaning of “one who lives under the patronage of another”. In the 1400s the phrase minds, when we begin to prove what is the good and perfect will of God. We can “lawyer’s customer” was used to define client and by the 1600s it had expanded to either choose to conform to this world and all we see happening around us, or we can include any customer who puts a particular interest in the care and management of be transformed by the will of God into the image of Christ Jesus, 2 Cor 3:18, “But we another. The dictionary definition of client today is “a person or group who uses the all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the professional advice or services of a lawyer, accountant, etc”… or as “a person who same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” receives the benefits or services of the government”, or more simply, as a “customer”. God has made His will for us perfectly clear, Phil 4:8, “Finally, brethren, whatsoev- It is very interesting to follow the progression of the word client and how the origins er things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever of the initially word connotated “protection and guardianship” and “patronage”, while things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; today when the general public hears the word client, what they really are thinking of if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” Rather than is “customer”. I personally tend to think more along the original lines of the word as worrying about the evil others are doing, God asks us to see the evil we are doing and “protection and guardianship”. By using those words as a starting point, one will truly to remove it from our lives so that we might be able to focus on the good we are meant put into practice the phrase “the client comes first”. to do, Lk 6:41-42, “And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but Putting the client first is very simple to understand, yet for some people hard to perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Either how canst thou say to thy put into practice. It basically means doing the right thing for them and not yourself. brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself behold- Being honest and forthright.

Not being manipulative or deceitful. Improving of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy your own skills so that you can give better service to your clients. Working hard and brother’s eye.” This is the transformation He calls us to make. always giving 100%. Our transformation is the process that moves us to become better people, but, it When you read that short list above, it should remind you of all the things you were will not happen automatically, it requires us to consciously exam and correct, Prov taught as a child as the proper way to behave and to treat other people. “Treat others as 4:26-27, “Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to you would like to be treated” is the well known saying and just following that simple the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” Notice, He did not ask us saying will lead to a client centered approach to service. As a real estate broker, this to see if we need to lose a few pounds, dye our hair, or look for a bigger home, He means, to me, telling your client to turn down an offer when it isn’t in their best interest is asking us to remove the evil in our lives.

Sanctuary of the Soul By faith alone through God’s grace

Lutheranism takes its name from Martin Luther, a German friar who launched the Protestant Reformation in 1517 by pub- lishing his Ninety-Five Theses which centered on the proper source of authority in the church. Originally Luther was considered a heretic and the term Lutheran was given to his followers as a defamatory label. However, with 80 million adherents worldwide, today Lutheranism constitutes the third largest Protestant faith after the Pentecostal and Anglican denominations. In America, the Lutheran Church was founded circa 1850 by German immigrants in Missouri. Today there are more than 40 Lutheran denominations in North America; the three largest are the Evangelical Luther- an Church in America (ELCA), the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS), and the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS). Lutheran services in Monterey County were first held in 1914 by Rev. E. H. Lange, pastor of Bethlehem Church in Creston, 105 miles south in San Luis Obispo County. The following year, his successor, Rev. G. E. Kirchner, made missionary journeys every fif0th Sunday from Creston to Pacific Grove. By 1916 services were being held gratis at the Presbyterian Church at Pine and GrandAvenues. The congregation numbered nine. By the next year it increased to 22 with monthly services often at the Presidio Chapel. The first offering of record totaled $5.85. Some early members were Mrs. Knut Hovden, Mrs. F. Hitz, Mr. & Mrs. Steinhagen, Mrs. Louis Lange, Mathilda Baker, John & Lydia Ries, and the perennial bachelor George Mast. In 1923, Rev. Ferdinand Haeuser held evening services at the Baptist Church in New Monterey. In 1925 the congregation voted to incorporate and chose the name Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church in honor of the Church in Creston that had pioneered Lutheran services in the county. At the time, the newly planted church was only the fifth church in Pacific Grove, preceded by the Methodist, Protestant Episcopal, Assembly of God, and Congregational churches. After incorporation, the trustees purchased a 60 by 60 lot at Pine and 15th Street and constructed a frame chapel for $800 which was dedicated in summer 1925. That chapel served the congrega- tion for 14 years when it was sold to the Pacific Grove School District for $2800.With profits from the sale, a 60͛ x 120 ͛ lot at 160 Monterey Ave. was acquired for $2500 and a larger chapel built to accommodate a congregation exceeding 120. By 1950 membership stood at 187. To accommodate a growing kids program, a Sunday School branch was opened in Seaside in 1953 for 31 kids. This branch grew to a full congregation named Faith Lutheran Church of Seaside. At the same time, Sunday services in Pacific Grove were doubled at to accommodate a growing congregation exceeding 200. Continued growth prompted acquisition of new property at 800 Cass St. in Monterey. The cornerstone was laid in 1959 and the new building dedicated in January 1960, Pastor Dorne and Prof. Du Brau officiat- ing. The church is 150 feet long and features a free-standing Italian marble altar above which hangs a nine-foot wooden cross, 18 art-glass windows, a 30-rank pipe organ by A. Laukhuff of Weikersheim, Germany, and a separate fellowship hall with two classrooms. Later, the Kutschera family commissioned a marble mosaic of the Holy Family on the east chancel wall by Carmel artist Geza St. Galy. The church belongs to the LCMS denomination which comprises about 2 million members. January 19, 2018 • CEDAR STREET Times • Page 15

If the new owner, Manal Mansour, did his due diligence prior to purchase he was fully aware of the structural issues, its historical status and restrictions imposed by PG on historical buildings. It is my understanding that the structural report sent to the city was prepared by an engineer hired by the new owner. Prior to demolishing an histor- ical building, should the city also request a report from an independent structural engineer? Did the city seek input from the Historic Resources Committee, ARB or Heritage Society? If the building is to be demolished the permits should not be fast tracked.

For a decade, she traveled coast-to-coast educating thousands of people about whales and why they are important to our planet. Let’s get back to Sandy’s story. It’s 1974 in East Oakland and artist Larry Foster has just rolled up the five-foot door of his studio as his forty-foot dream of hard effort materialized. There she was - a life-size, realistic sculpture of a gray whale. The Baxter Gallery at California Institute of Technology in Pasadena soon learned of Larry’s work and contacted him about their upcoming whale exposition. The viewing coincided with the gray whales’ winter migration. In November 1974, Sandy headed south for the exhibit “Caltech Revisited.” This was her debut. Rather than a red carpet, this 6,000-pound sculpture’s arrival was heralded with the help of a truck, forklift and crane. Whale enthusiasts viewed her close-up during their discussions, while Baja-bound gray whales passed the edge of Southern California.

From there, Larry’s company “General Whale” forged ahead co-presenting conferences, exhibits and events that expanded his mission “to provide and encour- age public interest and enlightenment in whales, dolphins and porpoises.” Graphic illustrations, paintings and Sandy herself contributed content and enthusiasm for the Photo courtesy Larry Foster save-the-whales movements. “Headed to SoCal as Sandy is well designed for travel with only a 3/4” cement shell and hollow core”

In April of 1975, Boston’s Museum of Science hosted “In Celebration of the Liv- ing Whale.” Scott McVay, Chairman of Environmental Defense Fund’s Committee on Whales, moderated the event. Exhibits included historical collections, contemporary drawings and a “forty-foot long life-size model.” Later that year, “The National Whale Symposium” was held at Indiana University in Bloomington. This five day public conference focused on “the preservation of the threatened and endangered whales and the public policy initiatives undertaken as part of this effort.” The multi-disciplinary gathering brought together biologists, environmentalists, musicians and other scholars from diverse backgrounds of public, private, non-profit and impassioned individual citizens. There were lectures, panel discussions, graphics and, surprisingly, a huge whale sculpture in the snow. This was, after all, November in Indiana.
