A proposed mixed-use building at 1255 Coast Village Roadkicked up controversy at the Santa Barbara PlanningCommission when the owners of a popular restaurant said theconstruction could ruin their business.The Hardey family, owners of Jeannine’s Bakery at 1253

Coast Village Road, said that while they approved of the proj-ect, the construction process had the potential to drive them outof business. Gordon Hardey said one bad customer experiencecould have a knock-on effect.“A little ripple, a little change can make a huge difference in

our business,” Hardey said.The proposed project demolishes the existing nursery and

replaces it with a two-story 11,921 square-foot mixed-usebuilding on top of a 12,865 square-foot subterranean garage. Itwill house two residential condominium units and two non-res-idential units. The tallest part of the building reaches 28 feet above Coast

Village Road and removes a Fern Pine. It also adds a fewpedestrian improvements such as dedicated sidewalk space andfive street trees.The project would come at the expense of Turk Hessellund

Nursery. The nursery, founded in 1966 by Danish immigrantTurk Hessellund, is the last in Montecito. Hessellund died in1983 and the nursery is now run by Raymond Sodomka.But the property itself had been sold to Alberto Valner a year

ago, and he had decided to build a new project on the land.

But at the meeting architect Brian Cearnal, representingValner, said the historical significance had not been lost onValner. He said great pains had been undertaken to make sure the

project would fit within the Coast Village Road neighborhood.He said Valner did not want a repeat of the ’76 Station incidentin 2008 where developer John Price tried to put in a three-storymixed-use building and sparked a revolt by neighbors.“We wanted a project that sensitive to the site and to the

community, and appropriate and beautiful,” Cearnal said.As it turned it, Valner had hit a home run when with the com-

mission and other agencies. Commissioner Bruce Bartlett notedthat the Montecito Planning Commission and ArchitecturalBoard of Review had given positive comments regarding thedesign. He said that spoke well of the design.“I think the project lends itself well to this site,” Bartlett said. The design even had the owners of Jeannine’s on its side.

Co-owner Alison Hardey said she appreciated the designersmaking room to keep Jeannine’s outdoor deck intact. She saidthe building itself would make an excellent addition to CoastVillage Road, but putting it in could be the restaurant’s doom. “It’s going to compliment Montecito,” Hardey said. “The

problem is it’s going to devastate Jeannine’s.” Standard construction hours are 7—5 p.m., Jeannine’s clos-

es at 4 p.m., meaning customers will be exposed to noise andconstruction all hours of the day. Hardey said that could makekeeping customers during the construction period difficult. “How can I say, ‘I know there’s a bomb practically going off,

When Santa Barbara resident Michael deGruy died in a hel-icopter crash in Australia on Feb. 3, his passing made headlinesworldwide.The New York Times, London Times, Sydney Morning

Herald and hundreds of other publications, including theNational Geographic Syndication, ran stories.The coverage was a testament to the quality and lasting lega-

cy of his work — and of his character. “He was one of the ocean’s warriors,” said film producer,

James Cameron, who was working with deGruy, 60, on pre-production on a film when the crash occurred just south ofSydney. “He was a man who spoke for the wonders of the seaas a biologist, filmmaker, and submersible pilot, and who spokeagainst those who would destroy the sea’s web of life. He waswarm, funny, and extremely capable, as one of the world’s topunderwater cinematographers. His passion of exploration andfor the wonders beneath the sea was boundless.”

DeGruy (pronounced de-GREE), worked on more than 25films and documentaries during a career that spanned threedecades. These included the award-winning “Blue Planet”series by the BBC, and he was the director of underwater pho-tographer for Cameron’s Discovery Channel film, “LastMysteries of the Titanic.”He often said, with his trademark warming smile, that he had

spent more time eating on the deck of the Titanic during thefilming than did the original passengers before the iceberg. He captured, on film, everything from close-ups of sharks on

the Great Barrier Reef, killer whales chasing sea lion pups offthe beaches of Patagonia, lobsters migrating in the Bahamas,hydrothermal vents deep in the Atlantic and life under the polarice caps and he spent hours studying his favorite subjects,cephalopods, especially octopi.He was considered perhaps the best, and most fearless,

underwater filmmaker in the world. In 1978, a shark attacknearly took his arm, but he endured a dozen operations, recov-ering partial use so he could continue his career. Aside from hisimmense talent and drive, he was also universally known as oneof the friendliest and nicest people in the business.DeGruy, who grew up in Mobile, Alabama moved to Santa

Barbara in 1989 after he married Mimi Armstrong, whom hemet while she was an associate producer on a documentary theywere working on together in the South Pacific.DeGruy had a strong drive to excel that blossomed early in

his life.By high school and then at North Carolina State University

where he gained a degree in marine zoology, he competed asone of the top springboard divers in the country. He alwaysloved the water.“Since he was a little boy he was fascinated by the ocean,”

his brother Glenn, told the al.com, a Mobile-based news net-work. “I remember, when he was a little kid, he had seahorsesand every type of snake he could catch. He’d bring them homeand they’d get loose in Mom’s car.”The Robinson R-44 helicopter exploded just after take-off,

mechanical malfunction believed to be the cause, according toNational Geographic news reports.The helicopter was piloted by Andrew Wight, an award-win-

ning film producer and oceanographer who often partneredwith Cameron on projects.He was an expert pilot. Wight and deGruy were close

friends who were leaving to shoot aerial footage before flyingon to New Guinea.“Mike and Andrew were like family to me,” said Cameron.

“They are my deep-sea brothers, and both were true explorerswho did extraordinary things and went place no human beinghas been. They died doing exactly what they loved most, head-ing out to sea on a new and personally challenging expedition,having fun in a way they defined it form themselves…Theywere passionate storytellers who lived by the explorer’s code ofhumor, empathy, optimism and courage. Their deaths are atremendous loss.”A public memorial service for deGruy is scheduled for

Sunday, February 12 at the Fess Parker DoubleTree Resort,beginning at 3 p.m. Besides his wife, he is survived by hismother, his son, Maxwell, daughter, Frances and three brothers,Glenn, Frank and Ken.

they’re digging up the dirt, but go ahead and eat our eggs bene-dict,’” Hardey said.Commissioners voiced concerns but found they themselves

could do little to reduce the burden of construction.Commissioner Addison Thompson said a planning commissionmeeting is the wrong place to solve these problems Cearnal, theHardeys, and city staff could meet privately to work out detailsof how to ease pressure on Jeannine’s. “Let them do it in a give and take where they aren’t in a for-

mal session,” Thompson said.Commissioners did come up with two small solutions. First

the restricted construction time to no more than 10 consecutivehours between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., allowing for more construc-tion time during hours when Jeannine’s closed.Second, they required a sound wall be put up between the

business and the construction site. But they also urged bothJeannine’s and Valner to continue private talks with each other.“I’m so hopeful that the two parties can find a way to make

this work together,” Commissioner Deborah Schwartz said.“Because I think both of you are very important to theMontecito community.”

NEWS IN BRIEF

Los Angeles County officials who have been widely mockedsince reports surfaced that they had imposed a $1,000 fine forthrowing Frisbees and footballs on the beach said on Thursdaythat the rule change had been badly misunderstood.In fact, the county had only eased restrictions that have been

in place for more than 40 years and carry a much lesser fine of$100, a spokesman for Los Angeles County Supervisor ZevYaroslavsky said."There has been a lot of misinformation and a lot of concern

and anger on the part of the public," said Joel Bellman, a pressdeputy for Yaroslavsky. "It was a good faith effort to create newopportunities for people to play on the beach that they didn'thave under the old ordinance."Reports that supervisors had ratcheted up fines for throwing

footballs and Frisbees on the county's beaches to $1,000 madeinternational headlines, became a point of ridicule on local talkradio and infuriated locals.

Spreading drug violence, kidnappings and carjackings inMexico have led the State Department to increase the number ofplaces it says Americans should avoid for safety reasons for thesecond time in less than a year.A travel advisory issued this week urged U.S. citizens to

avoid all but essential travel to 14 states in northern and centralMexico, warning that U.S. citizens have fallen victim to drug-cartel related activity "including homicide, gunbattles, kidnap-ping, carjacking and highway robbery."The latest advisory cites concerns about parts of

Aguascalientes, Guerrero and Nayarit in central Mexico, andraises its advisory against non-essential travel to includeChihuahua, Coahuila, Durango, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi,Sinaloa and Zacatecas as well as Tamaulipas and Michoacan.

LA mocked over Frisbee ban

Banks agree to $25B settlementFive big U.S. banks accused of abusive mortgage practices have

agreed to a $25 billion government settlement that may help rough-ly one million borrowers but is no magic bullet for the ailing hous-ing market.Thursday's announcement brings an end to 16 months of nego-

tiations that culminated in a tense week of round-the-clock deal-making. The result is a record state-federal settlement that willdeliver wide, but not deep, relief to U.S. homeowners.The deal, to be spread out over three years, requires the banks to

cut mortgage debt amounts and extend $2,000 payments to bor-rowers who lost their homes to foreclosure.It will also release the banks - Bank of America Corp, Wells

Fargo & Co, JPMorgan Chase & Co, Citigroup Inc and AllyFinancial Inc - from civil government claims over faulty foreclo-sures and the mishandling of requests for loan modifications.

One day they will grow up, but if the talent shown by the stu-dents at Laguna Blanca School, during their latest art exhibit atMontecito Aesthetic Institute (MAI) is any indication of what’s tocome in adulthood, then we’re in for a town thriving (even more

so) with artists.And although a wellness medi-spa and

medical practice may not be the first placeyou think of in terms of an art gallery, MAIat 1150-H Coast Village Road, wasdesigned with just that in mind.“I really conceived this business … to

be an aesthetics institute. So that includesdesign, it includes art, it includes anythingthat’s considered aesthetic,” explainedowner Dr. Joseph Chang at the artists’opening reception on February 2.As you walk in, there’s a nook to your

right with three-dimensional hanging artand a feature space to the left with whatlooks to be a Warhol print. Walls all along

the sides and around the back serve as a gallery, outside the treat-ment rooms.This is the fourth in a series of two-month showings since MAI

opened, with by far the youngest talent (joining the likes of previ-ous exhibitors from Mertens Fine Art in Montecito and Artamo,downtown)—it’s all done by students from kindergarten throughfourth grade.“We’ve been partnering with Amber O’Neill, who’s the

[school’s] art director, and she’s been fantastic,” said Katie Wisner,MAI’s patient care manager. “We just thought it’d bring a reallynice energy to the space to display more of the young, creativeenergy.”O’Neill has the students twice a week for 40 minutes for draw-

ing, painting, collage, printmaking, sculpture and more, which shealigns with their homeroom and specialty teachers’ curriculums, sothe kids get a deeper understanding that there’s art in everything.For example, “I have done workshops with the science teacher

so we can do units together, and the Spanish teacher and I take thestudents to galleries with art from Mexico, and combine history,cultural studies, language and art,” shared O’Neill.They study art history, art around the world, and different mas-

ter artists like Andy Warhol, which inspired the third grade’s sodacan pop art collaboration headlining in MAI’s front room, next tothe fourth grade’s linoleum block prints of animals.They learn different techniques and also have visits from vari-

ous artists-in-residence, including painter/printmaker HarianiOrme, illustrator Itoko Maeno, and printmaker Richard Wilke.“All of my students have found success by enjoying the creative

process, appreciating art in its many forms, and finding skills they

never knew they had,” said O’Neill, who has been with the schoolfor 10 years.One kindergarten class drew poinsettia flowers in pastels and

chalk; another took its cue from The Very Hungry Caterpillar, abook by Eric Carle.The first graders created a banner of Chinese scrolls, strung

across the wall, with black-brushed images of animals against awhite background, and a red stamp mark in the corner, represent-ing service, respect, responsibility, honesty and kindness.Since the second graders were studying an indigenous group in

Australia, they explored aboriginal dot painting, making for avibrant display.“I did a parrot,” said Madeleine Nicks. “I looked at the colors of

the parrot and I thought they were really interesting and I thoughtthat it would be cool and just a really fun thing, to match some ofthe dots in the painting with the colors and the shape.”Her twin brother, George, “painted something not similar; he

has a really interesting drawing, it’s like four animals stacked ontop of each other and it’s really cool,” said Madeleine.Next to her, friend Frances Carlson said, “I did a dingo that’s

over there. They’re kinda cute and I thought it’d be really fun mak-ing a dingo and doing all the dots behind it so I thought it’d prob-ably be really fun to do that.”The two girls were in their fancy clothes, with purses on their

arm, cute coats around their shoulders and bows in their hair. Theywere dressed to the nines, even though they’re only 8.“They knew it was an art showing and that we get dressed up

for art gallery events,” smiled mom Stephanie Nicks, whose hus-band, Dewey Nicks, is a well-known photographer."I was just chatting with Stacey Fell (mom of Nicky Fell—frog

Dear Miss Kitty,I have been in a long distance rela-

tionship with a loving and respectfulman for 10 months. We (especially him)talk frequently about how blessed we areto have finally found the right one. He ismoving here at the end of this year andwe'll talk about marriage at that time. Welove each other dearly and communicatevery well. I am a strong independentwoman and he loves that about me, butrecently I needed him and he didn't help.He does not live here, his job is extreme-ly demanding, etc. but I felt I wasn't worth 10 min-utes of his time. Am I giving too much and/or isit that he can be a selfish man? He always thanksme and tells me how grateful he is for everythingI do. I don't want to stop what is natural to me butat the same time I would like him to take care ofme too. My GF’s have run into this issue with menand we would appreciate any wisdom on how tohelp men see what we need and inspire him toact.... or face the dreaded feeling of: "I can't counton him, I'll do it myself"–Tracy Not my real name because this is from

many women :)

Dear “Tracys”,With a big ticket item on the menu like a move

and a possible marriage it is no wonder you arefeeling the intense heat of the inner personal inter-rogation lights. This hot-seat is a scary, but neces-

sary, place to be when you obviouslyhave high expectations for this relation-ship - and yet the writing could be onthe wall at the ten month mark.However you didn’t ask me what Ithought about long distance relation-ships - so as tempting as that may be,we will focus on what you did askabout: women who think they might bedoing too much based on what they door don’t get back from their partner. Ortranslated to girlie-coffee-talk: Aremen selfish pigs?

Deep within one’s own conscience there are acouple of telling questions that beg for an answer:1. Are we really doing what we do to feel goodabout ourselves? 2. Do we believe what and howwe give is what defines us as a person worthy oflove? 3. Are we afraid if we don’t give the way wedo, the relationship will be over?Tit-for-tat may sound like a new show in Vegas,

however it is a recipe for disaster as far as a rela-tionship goes. Blinded by what we perceive wecontribute to a relationship, we seldom notice allthat our partner brings to it. This is not surprising,since we tend to notice what we value - and whatwe do for another is usually what we value for our-selves. Unfortunately what we value doesn’talways impress a partner the way we wish itwould, and our loving gestures can go unnoticedand unreciprocated in our eyes.

Michael H. AllenCLERK OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORSRuss Barker, Deputy Clerk

I place a very high value on my husbandremoving a dead rat that recently committed sui-cide on a spiky plant. I loved that he took on theVincent Price rat-removal role, and I don’t have toget involved at all (except for the not–so-brief dis-cussion of why a rat would want to kill itself insuch a spectacular way). The important part is heknows that I know he hates being the residentialcoroner but because I appreciate it SO much hedidn’t mind doing it - quite as much. Having matching or mutually understood val-

ues of give and take make a huge difference in arelationship, and that is where excellent communi-cation comes in. Because our roles as men andwomen have morphed into very blurry lines, thistopic can’t be over emphasized. Within the con-fines of a long distance, new (or all of the above)relationship, I would guess there are many"assumptions" made about giving and taking -assumptions necessary because of the lack ofexperience in the relationship. The known facts,which accompany actually spending a lot of timewith someone, allow one to come to a Spock-likelogical conclusion that someone is not (or is) aselfish pig.

Darling Tracy's, Boys and Girls - What makesthis so much harder than it sounds is that as muchas women of the past were trained to be selective-ly capable, modern women are trained to do it all.My husband is 6’3 and very willing to help, yet Irisk my neck scaling the kitchen counters like anadolescent spider monkey because I can reach thetop shelves - therefore I must. Being a “strong andindependent” woman can make it very difficult togive clear signs that help is needed - even whenthe situation is pretty desperate. The "strong inde-pendents" are so used to doing it all it can be achallenge to ask someone else - especially thedreaded capable and willing man - for help. Weare out of the habit of asking for assistance, be it acritical need or Sunday afternoon sex (often thesame thing). You ask “Am I am giving too much and/or is it

that he can be a selfish man?” I don’t knowenough about you love birds except to tell you thatequality in its most obvious form is impossible tomeasure and therefore it’s not really all that impor-tant to keep score. Give as much as feels right aslong as the giving is without expectation, and givethe benefit of the doubt when needed. Askingwhy someone didn’t come through teaches us howto ask for help in a way that is heard or lets youknow that maybe the giving is at an end.
