Feet aching, eyes squinting, bibliophiles from acrossCalifornia and beyond bolted for the maze of books.“It’s cut throat,” said Julie Barthe. Her and her partner drove

all the way from Las Vegas and had been in line since 8 a.m.After 2 hours of digging through Planned Parenthood’s exten-sive trove of books, the exhausted seller said it was worth it.“And I’m the hard one to please,” Barthe added.The organization kicked off its 37th annual 10-day fundrais-

ing book sale last night with all the usual pizzazz.The $25 wine and snack event at Earl Warren Showgrounds

drew a mix of donors, book lovers, and booksellers eager to bethe first to lay eyes on this year’s treasure. The volume of booksand attendees was dizzying.Most were sellers eager at the first crack at low cost gems

and rarities. The highest priced book sold within the first 15minutes for $1,500.“It’s the best kept secret,” said Beth Zimmerman, glass in

hand. She and her friend drove from Manhattan Beach.Zimmerman buys up books to sell on Amazon and she saidthere’s nothing like it in Los Angeles.She also said she is a proud supporter of Planned

Parenthood, which made the deals she got all the sweeter.About 100,000 books are donated annually, making it the

largest book sale in the Tri-Counties.The organization sent out about 300 invitations to dealers,

and an outpouring of residents flocked to the showgrounds dur-ing the remainder of the event, which doesn't have an entrancefee.The sale means about $120,000 in funding for the organiza-

tion, at a time when the organization has seen a loss in federalfunding.“It goes on at a time of the year when the budget is at its

worst,” said Peggy Nicholson, book-sale chair. “We’re kind ofa stopgap -- every penny we deposit tonight will go straight intouse.”One year the organization was so cash starved they didn’t

even have money to fund the registers, she said.Though not hit as hard this year as clinics in other states like

Texas when the organization came under fire by social conser-

vatives earlier this year, the clinic received budget cutsnonetheless due to California’s fiscal woes.“Like all organizations we have been hit by a decline in

funding and the economic times are difficult,” said SherryMadsen, vice president of development. She said her organiza-tion received sharp cuts, including $200,000 toward their teenpregnancy prevention program.“We welcome community support,” said Leslie Hovey,

development chairman for the board. “Without it, we wouldn’tbe able to have the high level of programs and services.”The community in turn benefits both from the services fund-

ed by the sale, and also the deals they can find. Mary Jane, whois volunteering for her 35th year, said a lot of Christmas pres-ents come out of the sale, and she expects this more this yearbecause of the economy.The selection at the sale ranges from boxes of dollar James

Patterson and Dean Koontz novels to rarities like the first edi-tion, 1929 Illustrated hardback that sold for $1,500. This yearthey also received a bundle of boxes of new books from Barnes& Noble when it closed.Nicholson said their biggest sellers are art books, children's

NEWS IN BRIEFPerry takes immigration fire(Reuters) - Republican Rick Perry took heavy fire from his

rivals over a Texas policy that aids illegal immigrants at a pres-idential debate on Thursday where he struggled to protect hisfront-running position.Texas Governor Perry attempted to change the narrative from

two previous debates, where he came under fierce attack fromformer Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney and other candi-dates.But his competitors accused Perry of coddling illegal immi-

grants with a Texas policy to allow their children to gain educa-tion tuition assistance."I would not allow taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens

or for their children," said Minnesota Congresswoman MicheleBachmann. "That's a magnet. End the magnets for illegal aliensto come into the United States of America."Other candidates took shots at Tea Party movement favorite

Perry over illegal immigration, one of the few issues where hebelies his reputation as a staunch conservative.

Dugard sues US over captor(Reuters) - Kidnap victim Jaycee Dugard on Thursday sued

the federal government and accused it of failing to monitor thefelon who grabbed her off a Northern California street as a childand held her for 18 years.Her captor, Phillip Garrido, was sentenced in June to 431

years to life in prison after pleading guilty to kidnapping andmultiple counts of sexual assault, in a case that resulted from hisarrest in 2009 and the stunning rescue of Dugard.Garrido, who kidnapped Dugard in 199, had previous feder-

al convictions dating to 1977 for kidnapping and forcible rapein a case stemming from his abduction of a woman in the Tahoearea of Northern California whom he took to Reno, Nevada.

NTC tested by strongholds(Reuters) - Libya's new government said it had tightened its

grip on oasis towns which sided with Muammar Gaddafi, butfaced a tough fight to take two remaining strongholds loyal tothe ousted leader and bolster its credibility.Forces of the National Transitional Council (NTC) said they

controlled a string of desert towns in Libya's deep south,although they said Gaddafi loyalists were still holding out inpockets of at least one oasis.So far they have failed to take the two much larger loyalist

strongholds far to the north, Bani Walid and Gaddafi's home-town of Sirte, in a series of chaotic offensives which have raisedquestions about the NTC's ability to control the country.Until Thursday, some parts of Sabha, the traditional base for

Gaddafi's own tribe about 800 km (500 miles) south of Tripoli,had been occupied by fighters loyal to Gaddafi.

OF SANTA BARBARA

The $2.2 million De La Guerra Plazaoverhaul took another step forward as theSanta Barbara Planning Commissionheard a report on the project’s possibleenvironmental impact.The project is intended to revitalize

one of downtown’s top spots for festivi-ties and demonstrations. The project as itstands would reduce the lawn height tomake it flush with the road, remove thecurb and replace it with removable bol-lards, and widen the sidewalk behindState Street.The project also makes utility and

safety upgrades.City Associate Planner Kathleen

Kennedy told the board that the initialstudy revealed possible archeologicaland historical impacts that will requirefurther study.The study also said circulation effects

would require further study. As plannedthe project would have a net loss of fourparking spaces in the plaza area. Three15-minute spaces and two 75-minutespaces would be lost. De La GuerraStreet would be rezoned to add another75-minute spot.The commission held the hearing for

environmental concerns only, so thecommissioners had little to say about themerits of the project itself at the meeting.Public speakers, restricted to environ-

mental issues only, voiced only a fewminor concerns about the historic valueof the curb, decreasing the amount oftime the plaza is fenced off after Fiesta,not removing the trees, and keeping theflag pole in its current position.

Only two commissioners raised anyissues themselves.Commissioner Sheila Lodge proposed

looking into the impacts of eliminatingparking on one side of the lawn, sayingthat those spaces had made the plaza lessopen since they had been put in.Lodge also wanted to look into rein-

stalling benches back into the lawn. Shefelt the plaza had become underusedbecause places to sit had been eliminat-ed.“People simply just walk across it

now because there’s no place to sit otherthan the grass itself,” Lodge said.Commissioner Mike Jordan had some

concerns over what the report considered

a “historical impact.”Jordan said that incremental changes

have been made over the years that did-n’t require environmental review. Jordanreferred them as “erosion” and wanted toknow if what point in history the projectwould be compared to.“Is it just from today forward?” Jordan

said.Kennedy said the report doesn’t deal

with features that might have been therein the past.“It is just from what’s there today and

how the proposed project is affecting it,”Kennedy said.The next phase is to prepare another

draft of the Environmental Impact report.

Hop, Skip, Ro-sham-boThey don’t tell you this in

Lamaze class, but one of themost fun things about havingkids is that you have the bestof all reasons to behave like akid again. As my son will tes-tify to, I get just as excited ashe does about dressing up forHalloween, hunting for treas-ures from the Easter Bunnyand finding the M & M’s hid-den in the popcorn whilewatching the latest Disneyflick. And when Santa comesto town … don’t even get mestarted about all of the long-delayedpleasures a certain big bearded guybrings to a Jewish girl who has lustedafter Christmas trees her whole life. Oy!Given how much fun it is to yell

“Yahtzee” at the top of my lungs, Iguess I shouldn’t be surprised to learnthat favorite childhood games like FourSquare, Dodgeball and Rock PaperScissors are being reclaimed by adults.They actually gave away $25,000 in

scholarship money at the annual USARock Paper Scissors LeagueChampionship held in Acapulco lastspring—and it was broadcast on MTV.I’m telling you, the duel may be allabout the hands, but this sport has legs.Reportedly, Rock Paper Scissors isunder consideration as an exhibition forthe Winter Olympics. According to afake press release on the officialUSARPS website (www.usarps.com),International Olympic CommitteePresident Jacques Rogge is a huge RockPaper Scissors aficionado who sees thiscompetition as a tremendous way forcountries to engage in mental battle andclearly determine which nation boasts

the sharpest minds and quickestwrists. “The world will finallyfind out who has the mettle tomedal,” Rogge says.Sure. At least until Rock

Scissors Paper gets ruined bysteroids.Hmm … I wonder if that

Olympic archery competitorand actress Geena Davis willstart training? She could alwaysuse her excessive height advan-tage to compete in Dodgeball,yet another childhood “sport” Ihear is under Olympic consider-

ation. Thanks in large part to the BenStiller movie, which played the sport forabsurd comedy, the InternationalDodgeball Federation is well on it's wayof having organizations in all 50 statesby the end of 2013 and a projected300,000 sanctioned players by the endof 2012, if not sooner. According to theIDBF’s official website (www.dodge-ball.com) adults aged 25-35 are thesport’s largest and hottest growth seg-ment. The Federation has welcomednew leagues in Pakistan, Australia andPuerto Rico. Even though it’s alsoknown as “war ball;” clearly the UNshould be looking into incorporatingDodgeball as a possible peacekeepingmeasure.Apparently my old recess favorite,

Four Square, is back in vogue for adultsas well. It’s one of the most popularsports in Cambridge, Massachusetts,with frequent tournaments and morethan a dozen teams competing in anadults-only league. Norfolk, Virginia isa hotbed of adult Kickball, another ofmy childhood favorites. Stickball nevermade it to any of my Santa Barbara

playgrounds, but apparently it’s bigback east, where New Yawkers relivetheir youth in three different adultStickball leagues. Kansas City has theTag Institute, where kids of all agesindulge in variations of the game, Tag.Here in California, where we like a littleshowbiz with our sport, we have SanFrancisco’s Double Duchess Jump RopeTroupe, whose adult members do theiracrobatic routines dressed in Catholicschoolgirl uniforms. My husband is notallowed to go.

“Not last night, but the night before24 Robbers came knocking at my

door…”My toes immediately start tapping to

the familiar rhymes. I’m having a flash-back to fourth grade, where schoolworkseemed much easier to face after a fewturns of the rope or kicks of the ball.A little voice says, “Wanna play tag,

mom?” brings me back to the present.“You bet,” I say. I may be older andslower, but I can still use my wits todominate a 12-year-old.“You’re it,” we say simultaneously.“One, two, three jinx. You owe me a

coke.”

books, mystery and trade fiction. But the salereally has a selection of “anything and every-thing,” she added.The spectacle is irresistibly magnetic for

local bookworms and sellers in addition tothose who trek long miles.“I’m a total bibliophile, I can’t stop myself,”

said Aline Shapiro, a retired librarian fromPeabody Charter School.She brought her young daughter and son

who each had a grocery bag of books. Her sonshowed off his favorite find -- a set of a dozenBatman books.“It’s never been used, never opened, and it

only cost three dollars,” said a pleasedShapiro.Jerry and Angela Jacobs who own Lost

Horizon Books on Anacapa Street have beencoming to the event since they opened 28 yearsago.“They’ve got good books, good prices, fair

prices,” Jerry Jacobs said. In about an hour’stime he had swooped up six boxes.The event is fueled entirely by about 200

volunteers. Nicholson said that volunteers area mix of those who love the organization,books or both. Many volunteer year after yearand become specialists.“We have a good class of people,” she said.

She pointed out local writers and universityprofessors who are members of her team.The event’s veterans’ eyes glow when they

recall tales they have witnessed. Nicholson

said one year they almost threw out a first edi-tion copy of Walden before discovering whatthe decrepit volume was. They turned aroundand sold it for $1,200.“The buyer was more than happy,” she said.

“We try to price them so the dealers who arespending the most in here can make a profit.”She said the area is ripe with the right type

to donate because of the university and com-munity college. Having a large population ofwealthy people also helps, she said. A bulk oftheir stock comes from estate liquidations.The majority of donations comes from indi-

viduals who can deposit their books at theorganizations sorting site at 721 EastGutierrez. Donors work throughout the yearsorting books, and are available to receivelarge donations Thursday and Saturday morn-ings. Small donations are gathered in a markedbin.They replenish their supply each year,

which is a way of slimming down the less pop-ular stuff, said Nicholson. Sometimes anInternet buyer will gobble the rest, but thisyear that offer hasn’t been made. She predictsabout 500 boxes will wind up in recycling.Though books crowded wall to wall tables

in Warren Hall, only about 75 percent were putout last night leaving plenty for others to gleanover the next ten days. Nicholson said the bestbooks are put out first, so it does reward earlybirds.A wide range of people show up to the

event, which has sections ranging from mili-tary books to new wave.“I think the really cool thing is that literacy

is the common denominator,” said Jane.

Dear Miss Kitty,I saw a man I know downtown

“cuddling” in a restaurant boothwith a woman who is not his wife.Normally I wouldn’t have saidanything about it, but the man andhis wife have been friends of oursfor years. In fact just a few weeksago they came over for dinner withthe usual crowd and nothingseemed amiss. I think I should tellher and my husband says to stayout of it. All I can think is that ifshe were me, I would want to know. Wouldyou tell her?

First of all just because you say you‘d "liketo know if it were you" doesn’t mean that is a

clear ticket to taking action. That you wouldwant to know presupposes that their marriageis just like yours and your exact thoughtsabout straying outside the marriage are alsoshared. Even when we think we know a cou-ple very well we cannot presume to knowwhat their personal relationship is really like.So under close scrutiny the golden rule

appears to be a little bit flawed, “Do unto oth-ers as you would have them do unto you”doesn’t take into account that what we per-ceive is best for ourselves isn’t necessarilywhat someone else believes, wants or needs.The rule is only a guideline but in relation-ships lines are projected all over the place andsome we see and some we don’t. We have totread carefully- so as not to trip in what mightbe a line in the sand for us, and merely just aharmless little hopscotch pattern to someoneelse.Years ago there was a time when I was the

one that was in the dark and someone madesure I got the information about the “cuddlingdowntown” that was going on. Although Iwas grateful to have my suspicions confirmedI wasn’t in a position to do much about it. Iam sure that was a surprise to the “angel” thatclued me in and my apparent lack of actionbecame a disappointment to them-so if youchoose to be an “angel” detachment from theoutcome is paramount.It is also possible that your friend may not

receive the information in the spirit and kind-ness in which you want to convey it. It ispossible that "the messenger” may not be

killed, but the relationship you now enjoywith her might come into some confusion.You have to be willing to accept that yourfriendship could become strained or evenmeet its demise – after you tell her what youthink you know. Taking the lid off a can ofworms really does release them to do as theywill - and those worms can turn into rat-tlesnakes in a heartbeat.Darling B, Boys and Girls; the Law of

Unintended Consequences is wide awakewhen information is being shared - especiallywhen the information has been nesting in thedarker parts of what we as humans are capa-ble of. I wish I could give you a straight shoton this one but your decision to act (or not) isas personal as your sense of what you believeis right and wrong. If you do decide to tellsomeone something very personal to them,keep the discussion to what you saw andheard and don’t speculate or judge their reac-tion to the information - or project your reac-tion into the situation. If you choose not tosay anything (and remember no one diedhere) know that the decision to keep yoursilence is no reflection on the eventual out-come of their relationship. Even doing noth-ing can have negative consequences for therelationship with her, since keeping secrets isa burden none of us need or appreciate keep-ing.Have a naughty day!
