battle in final daysHannah-Beth Jackson, Mike Stoker and Jason Hodge are battling for the 19th District State Senate seat.

DAILY SOUND / Victor Maccharoli

Just five days before theprimary, Republican MikeStoker and Democrat JasonHodge went on the attackagainst Democrat Hannah-Beth Jackson at a Thursdaynight debate at Fess Parker’sDouble Tree Resort on SantaBarbara’s waterfront.The candidates are vying

for the 19th District StateSenate seat in an open pri-mary, where the top two fin-ishers regardless of partyaffiliation will battle for theseat in November.Journalist Jerry Roberts,

former managing editor of theSan Francisco Chronicle,

moderated the business-focused debate sponsored bythe Milpas CommunityAssociation. About 75 peopleattended.Stoker and Hodge acted

more like old buddies thanrivals for the seat, so much sothat Roberts at one pointjoked that they were practi-cally singing “Kumbaya”together.Stoker took on Jackson

early.“Ms. Jackson has never

seen a tax proposal she didn’tsupport,” Stoker said.Later Hodge said the seeds

of California’s financial crisiswere planted when Jacksonwas serving in the stateAssembly from 1998 to 2004.

Jackson mostly stuck toher talking points, such as“California is the state thatinvents the future.”The candidates answered a

wide range of questions fromwhat California could do toreinvigorate the business cli-mate and how to stop the mid-dle-class exodus to whetherthe candidates supportedProp. 29, a $1 tax on ciga-rettes, and their views on pen-sion reform.Political observers expect

that Jackson and Stoker willmake it through the June pri-mary and challenge eachother in November. Hodge, aVentura County firefighterand member of the OxnardHarbor Commission has

spent most of his time cam-paigning in Ventura Countyand North Santa BarbaraCounty. Jackson is largelyrelying on her name recogni-tion to give her the edge overHodge. As the onlyRepublican in the race, Stokeris consider a lock to be in thetop two.Stoker seemed uncon-

cerned with Hodge, so muchso that he said that if he does-n’t win next week that hewould endorse Hodgebecause “he gets it,” and thatthey agree that Californiaover-regulates its businesses.“That’s pretty appalling

that all these green jobs are

Highway 101 EIR‘scares’ panel

The controversy over thefate of the CabrilloBoulevard/Highway 101interchange shows few signsof cooling down for the sum-mer.The Santa Barbara City

Planning Commission gave afrosty response to Caltrans’draft Environmental ImpactReport on the project.Commissioners felt there’dbeen very little detail on thelocal impacts to the commu-nity in the report.“I think it’s what we’re not

seeing scares me the most,”Commissioner Bruce Bartlettsaid.As the number of com-

muters between SantaBarbara and other areas ispredicted to increase over theyears, Caltrans has put in

plans to create a third HighOccupancy Vehicle(HOV)Lane, more commonly knownas a carpool or diamond lane.The project has come

under fire from locals whohave concerns regarding theelimination of left hand offramps in the Montecito areaand how that could affect theneighboring Coast VillageRoad. Though considered partof Montecito, Coast VillageRoad is within the SantaBarbara City boundaries andfalls under the purview of theSanta Barbara PlanningCommission.Caltrans released its draft

EIR earlier in the year. Inearly May, it decided toexpand the public commentperiod from May 25th to July9th. A final EIR must addressquestions raised during thepublic comment period.

But after hearing Caltransproject manager Scott Eadesgive his presentation, thecommissioners complainedthat they didn’t have enoughdetails in the report to ask theright questions.Commissioner Mike Jordansaid it had been one of theleast organized reports he’dseen as a planning commis-sioner.“I think I’ve seen about a

half-dozen EIRs in two yearsup here and this is by far themost frustrating and unwieldyone to work with,” Jordansaid.The issues for the city

focus on the five possibleconfigurations for theCabrillo Boulevard exitsknown as F, F-modified, J, M,and M-modified. All elimi-nate the left hand ramps.

NEWS IN BRIEF

Google shakes up online buyingGoogle Inc unveiled major changes to its shopping business

on Thursday that will likely prove controversial in the e-com-merce world.Starting in the fall, product search results for users in the

United States will be influenced by how much retailers andadvertisers pay, a company executive said. In the past, productsearch results were based mainly on relevance and the programwas free.Google, the world's most popular Internet search engine, will

rename its service Google Shopping from the current GoogleProduct Search."We are starting to transition Google Product Search in the

U.S. to a purely commercial model," said Sameer Samat, vicepresident of product management at Google Shopping. "Thiswill give merchants greater control over where their productsappear on Google Shopping."Google has been in the product listing and search business

for about a decade. During that time, it has provided merchantswith free access to shoppers. The company made money by run-ning paid product search ads along with the organic, or unpaid,product listings, according to Eric Best, CEO of Mercent, whichhelps retailers sell through Google and other e-commerce web-sites such as Amazon.com Inc and eBay Inc."Today, that model goes away," Best said. "It's a very big

deal."

Private payroll growth picked up only slightly in May andclaims for jobless benefits rose last week, suggesting the U.S.labor market recovery was losing steam after a strong perform-ance early in the year.Other data on Thursday showed factory activity in the Midwest

slowed considerably in May and economic growth in the firstquarter was a bit softer than initially estimated.Economists said the reports reflected business anxiety amid an

uncertain global economic outlook as the euro zone's debt crisisescalates and China's economy slows."The economy is growing at an anemic pace and the job mar-

ket is showing some signs of hesitation in the pace of hiring. Thereis a lot to worry about," said Paul Edelstein, an economist at IHSGlobal Insight in Lexington, Massachusetts.Private employers created 133,000 jobs in May, payrolls

processor ADP said. That was only a slight step up from April'stepid increase of 113,000 and below economists' expectations fora gain of 148,000.The report comes ahead of the government's closely watched

employment report for May on Friday, which is expected to shownonfarm payrolls increased 150,000, up from a paltry 115,000 inApril.

What I learned inkindergarten this yearAuthor's Note: Even

though my son is halfwaythrough junior high thesedays, it seems like only yester-day he was scampering off tokindergarten. Every year feelslike a big leap year, but thatyear was still the biggest leapso far, and this is still one ofmy all-time favorite columns.

The tears started when Ibegan to compose a thankyou letter to my son’steacher. Trying to put downon paper all of the amazingthings he had learned inkindergarten – about the“bossy E,” who was simplysilent when I went to school;about raising your hand toget attention, rather thanshouting or pulling on shirt-sleeves; about using sign lan-guage when you need to goto the bathroom; about takingturns and waiting patiently;that gray wolves mate for lifeand that little acorns growinto great big oaks – provedan impossible task. I justkept smearing the ink withmy big, sloppy, sentimentalmommy tears.Kindergarten is such a big

year in so many ways. Sure,

we felt the influ-ence of the out-side world in pre-school, like whenKoss thought itwas odd that hisfather and I didn’thave tattoos, likeall of his 20-something teach-ers. Or when hepicked up phraseslike, “Let’sskedaddle,” or“Excuse me, sir,”that he would never haveheard at home.But kindergarten was dif-

ferent. Even I could remem-ber kindergarten, whichmeant so would Koss, andany mistakes that we madehere would go on his, gasp… permanent record! Therewere goals, standards, expec-tations, even report cards.At Back to School Night,

when Ms. Geritz told us thatevery one of the studentswould be reading by the endof the year, I just about fellout of my teeny, tiny, fakewood chair. They were justbabies, many of them cling-ing to mom and dad for afew precious moments before

running off onto theplayground, withsome stray glancesback for reassurance.Every milestoneKoss encounters feelslike a mixed blessing,as I give another bitof him away to theuniverse. As much asI want him to beindependent, I dreadit too.Someone recently

asked me when Imost rejoiced, when he gotout of diapers or when hecould strap himself into a carseat, which he will soon straphimself out of permanentlywhen he turns 6 next month.Koss can hardly wait. He’llprobably wake up at mid-night to throw it out of thecar.As for me, well sure,

ditching the diapers didinspire a little happy dance,but even the most celebratorymilestones make me feel alittle sad. Call me crazy, but Imissed those 2 a.m. cuddleswhen he began sleepingthrough the night.In kindergarten, each child

greeted Ms. Geritz with a

hug. That’s what I’ll proba-bly miss the most. For thesimple sweetness and alsofor the deeper symbolism.These children adore theirteacher. For right now she isschool to them. I wish Icould bottle that love oflearning, that openness to allof life’s possibilities and putit in a time capsule tobequeath to them whenthey’re 13 or 11 or 9 orwhenever that seeminglyunavoidable teenage ‘tudestarts.I’m a little bit comforted

when I see Ms. Geritz’s paststudents -- 1st and 2ndgraders and even some 6thgraders -- stop by and giveher hugs. She’s a part ofthem now and she alwayswill be.I’ll never forget the deject-

ed look on Koss’s face whenI explained to him that notonly would he have a differ-ent teacher for first grade,but that there would be somedifferent students too. Hereally liked his classmates.So did I. While neither oneof us found a new best

Did you know that losingweight could be as easy as 5thgrade math?Complicated diet schemes

really aren’t necessary onceyou learn the basics of “calo-rie math”.How many calories does

your body need?A calorie is a unit of ener-

gy. Each of us needs a differ-ent number of daily caloriesdepending on our physicalbuild, metabolic rate andactivity level.Calorie math is simple.A person who eats more

calories than they use willgain weight. A person whoconsumes the same number ofcalories as they burn, willmaintain their weight and aperson who ingests fewercalories than their body uses,will lose weight.

Putting “calorie math” touseFact #1: One pound of

weight equals 3,500 calories.Doing the math, a person

who eats 500 calories less perday can lose about a pound in7 days. By eating 250 calo-ries less per day, one wouldlose a pound about every twoweeks or 26 pounds in a year!Fact #2: Running a mile

burns about 100 calories.A person who keeps their

calorie intake stable, butwants to “run off” a pound aweek would have to run 35miles per week or about 5miles a day! That is ambi-

tious for even anavid runner.Using these for-

mulas, it is easy tocreate a personalizedweight loss plan.Small, sustainablechanges can add upto big results overtime.It also becomes

clear that “not eatingit in the first place”is probably easierthan trying to “run itoff” later. Cuttingout calories is amuch more effective weightcontrol method than just exer-cise alone.Combining calorie reduc-

tion with modest exercise isthe generally healthiestapproach for most people.

The Dr. Dan planGet to know yourself bet-

ter. Visit a nutritionist or awebsite such aswww.nutritiondata.com tocalculate your Body MassIndex (BMI) and your dailynutritional needs.Start paying better atten-

tion to what and how muchyou are eating on a dailybasis.Next, think about what

small changes you can makein your daily eating habits.If you wish to lose weight,

make plans to eliminate about250 calories a day from yourdiet. Plan on eating threemeals and two protein rich

snacks throughoutthe day.Cutting out 250 calories

may be as easy as not drink-ing a 110-calorie can of sodaand leaving a few bites offood on your plate at eachmeal.Start adding some light

exercise into your daily rou-tine for motivation and hearthealth. It is always a goodidea to discuss the appropri-ateness of your exercise rou-tine with your health careprovider.The key to lasting nutri-

tional success is to makesmall changes that you canmaintain. After six months, itis reasonable to see a 10-15pound weight loss, whichmay motivate you to exercisea little more, eat a littlehealthier and treat yourself tosome new clothes.

Summing it upHealthy weight loss and

maintenance can be achievedthrough a balance of smarteating, regular exercise andbasic arithmetic.In my experience, the best

nutritional plans includeusing common sense andmoderation. Fad diets or dra-matic changes are generallynot sustainable. Skippingmeals often leads to over eat-ing later in the day.Managing your weight

doesn’t mean that you have todeprive yourself. Using Dr.Dan’s calorie math you canmake small changes and seebig results.

going to Texas,” Stoker said.Stoker and Hodge at the beginning of

Thursday’s forum also made a point toacknowledge former AssemblymanPedro Nava, who sat in the front rowdirectly in front of Hodge for the begin-ning of the forum. Nava has feuded polit-ically with Jackson for years. Hodgetook a backhanded jab at current assem-blyman Das Williams.“Since he left office, I see him more

than any other currentAssemblymember,” Hodge said.Stoker later said Nava was a great

example of a Democrat who worked inbipartisan way to get things done inSacramento.It all fell within their narrative of

painting Jackson as an environmentalideologue, and out-of-touch Democrat,who was part of the reason whyCalifornia got into its current fiscal mess.Stoker said California needs to allow

slant oil drilling to help build the econo-my.“We don’t need new platforms,”

Stoker said. “We can do a lot of thisexploration and development with slantoil drilling.”Jackson fired back with “we’ve got to

get rid of our dependence on fossil fuels.

We need to transfer from dependence onfossil fuels to renewable energies.”All three candidates at various points

received ovations from the crowd, most-ly made up of the business communityand activists from each campaign.Jackson said that she was best poised

to go to Sacramento. She wants to rein-vest in colleges and universities, creategreen jobs and develop programs thattarget at-risk children in the first grade— before they end up in the prison sys-tem.“The prison system in California is a

mess,” Jackson said. “We need toaddress the issues of crime at the earliestpossible stage.”Even that was a point of contention

between Stoker and Jackson.“I’m not sold on the first-grade inter-

vention being the first line of defense inthis,” Stoker said.Stoker said he would urge state gov-

ernment to dramatically cut its work-force like the private sector has. Stokersupports a two-tier pension system;Jackson does not.Hodge said California must create

new jobs quickly, because job growthwill take care of much of the state’sfinancial problems.The latest campaign finance reports

show that Jackson raised $218,024 in thelast quarter and has a total of $491,764 in

contributions. She has $158,975 cash onhand.Hodge raised $195,013 during the last

reporting period, for a total of $338,416.He has $132,246 in the bank.Jackson has made hay of the fact that

about 75 percent of Hodge’s moneycomes from the Bay Area andSacramento special interest groups.Hodge’s wife is Fiona Ma, a theAssembly Speaker Pro Tempore.At the end of Thursday’s debate,

Hodge seemed unaffected by sugges-tions that he doesn’t have support in thedistrict. After Jackson left the event earlybecause she had an engagement inOxnard, Hodge seemed proud of theamount of money he has raised..“I apologize to anyone who likes

‘Dancing With The Stars,’” Hodge said.“I bought the whole show last week.”

Some add new ramps or divert traffic to otherstreets, and adjust the train tracks to makeroom for future commuter rail.Rob Dayton, principal transportation plan-

ner for the city, said that F-modified appearedto be the best option for the city as it allowed asecond northbound off ramp, keeping trafficfrom spilling onto Coast Village Road.“F-modified is probably where we’re going

to end up,” Dayton said.However Dayton said staff felt the EIR left

many questions unanswered, such as effects onthe bird refuge, visual impacts to city views,and potential conflicts with city plans.Some members of the public agreed. Bob

Short, representing the influential MontecitoAssociation, said the report didn’t meet CEQAguidelines and gave a Power Point presenta-tion listing interchange alternatives that hadn’tbeen considered, studies not mentioned, andother details.

Short said the Association had found thereport so lacking that it couldn’t endorse anyof the construction options.“We do not even make a recommendation at

this time because there’s too much missinginformation, we feel, to intelligently makeone,” Short said.Commissioners also pushed for another

hearing. Under normal procedures, the finalEIR would not go to the commission and thenext time the commissioner saw the projectswould be after an alternative had been chosen.Commissioner Deborah Schwartz felt that

the project is too important for the commissionto have just one opportunity to weigh in. “Wecannot get to a point where it’s two-thirdsbaked and our comments are really just,‘Thank you for sharing,’” Schwartz said.After consulting with staff, the commission-

ers pushed to have another meeting. After con-sulting with Caltrans officials and city staff thecommission agreed to meet again on June 14thfor another hearing to focus on the five alterna-tives.

101FROM PAGE 3

With the election less thana week away, the Measure Ycampaign got a fresh infusionof $100,000 in its coffersfrom developer Mark Lee.Campaign contribution

papers show Lee’s company,Peak-Las Positas, gave themoney Wednesday, bringingthe total contribution to the“Yes” campaign to $250,000,all from Lee. Calls to Leewere not immediatelyreturned.Most of the money spent so

far has gone to political con-sultants, direct mail postage,printing and graphics, andmarketing experts.By contrast, the No on Y

campaign holds roughly$27,000 in funds. SantaBarbara City Council memberCathy Murillo, an ardentopponent of the measure,called Lee’s latest donation,“unbelievable” but said theNo campaign would be work-ing hard to get its message outto the public.“We hope the voters find

the facts on this issue despitethe huge amount of moneybeing spent by the ‘Yes on Y’campaign,” Murillo said.Passing the measure would

allow a bridge to be built overArroyo Burro Creek on LasPositas to provide vehicularaccess to the plannedVeronica Spring Meadows, a25-unit housing project in the

Las Positas valley.Though Lee owns the

property the houses will beconstructed on, the bridgeimpinges on public parklandand can only be approvedwith a vote from the public.The measure has stoked

some fierce fighting as itssupporters claim it will allow1,800 square feet of creekrestoration, a six acre park,and safe bicycle and pedestri-an access to Arroyo BurroBeach.Its opponents claim that it’s

just a giveaway to the devel-oper, does much more dam-age to the creek than therestoration can fix, and sets abad precedent for giving awaypublic land.

friend, we did meet a lot of nice people and Iknow that most of them will remain in ourlives for a very long time.But we’ll never be in kindergarten again

and I can’t help but wish I had spent a littlemore time volunteering in the classroom.Maybe baked a cookie or two, instead ofalways buying them. Maybe re-learn how tobake, so that I could actually mean it when Isay that. Although, I know that I would stillfeel guilty even if I had never missed a volun-teer opportunity and had been a MarthaStewart lunatic about making perfect goodiesfor every event. Koss would rather have Oreos anyway, I

reminded myself, as I un-packaged the cookiesafter the end-of-the-year play.

Whether it was their first child to

enter kindergarten or their last, all of the par-ents marveled that their babies had finallyreached this stage, reading well enough tomemorize lines and stand poised in front of theaudience waiting their turn to perform.For the finale, when the children signed and

sang along to Louis Armstrong’s “What aWonderful World,” there wasn’t a dry eye inhouse.Then Ms. Geritz gave them each a memory

book with a poem that said they would take apiece of them with her wherever they went. Sorry if my big, sloppy, sentimental

mommy tears smudged your paper. I’m sureI’ll get over it by the fall.

Edwards not guiltyin campaign trial(Reuters) Former Senator

John Edwards' affair and childout of wedlock derailed apolitical rise that put him onthe Democrats' 2004 WhiteHouse ticket, but the one-timetrial lawyer held his head highon Thursday after a NorthCarolina jury delivered hismost personal victory yet.Twelve jurors in the state

Edwards represented in theU.S. Senate from 1999 to2005 acquitted him on onecount of accepting illegalcampaign contributions givenduring his bid for theDemocratic presidential nom-ination four years ago.U.S. District Judge

Catherine Eagles declared amistrial on five other countsbecause the jury was dead-locked about whetherEdwards, 58, took moneyfrom two wealthy donors tokeep voters from learning he

was cheating on his cancer-stricken wife, Elizabeth, witha campaign videographer.The jury's decision on the

ninth day of deliberationscapped a nearly six-week-long trial that included sala-cious testimony more befit-ting of a soap opera than acampaign for the country'shighest political office.Jurors heard about tawdry

affair details, furtive phonecalls and secret donor checkswritten under the guise ofbuying furniture, as formercampaign workers and sup-porters painted an unflatteringportrait of Edwards.The trial's outcome marked

yet another dramatic turn ofevents for the two-time presi-dential hopeful who beat aRepublican incumbent sena-tor in his first political raceand became the Democrats'vice presidential nominee just

six years later.As the jury's verdict was

read, Edwards, who did nottestify during the trial andfaced possible fines andprison time if convicted,slumped back in his seat inrelief.Later, standing in front of

the federal courthouse inGreensboro, he maintainedhis innocence and choked upas he spoke of his affectionfor the 4-year-old daughter hefathered with then-mistressRielle Hunter."While I do not believe I

did anything illegal, or everthought I was doing anythingillegal, I did an awful, awfullot that was wrong, and thereis no one else responsible formy sins," he said, flanked byhis parents and 30-year-olddaughter, Cate, who stood byhim throughout the proceed-ings.
