Nuclear fears continue after Japan quakeFUKUSHIMA, Japan (Reuters) —

Japan's prime minister warned thismorning that radioactive levels hadbecome high around an earthquake-stricken nuclear power plant afterexplosions at two reactors, addingthat the risk of more radioactive leak-age was rising.Naoto Kan urged people within 18

miles of the facility north of Tokyo toremain indoors.The French embassy in the capital

warned in an advisory that a low levelof radioactive wind could reachTokyo — 150 miles south of the plant— in about 10 hours.The reactor operator asked the

U.S. military for help, while Kyodonews agency said radiation levelsnine times normal levels had beenbriefly detected in Kanagawa nearJapanese rescue workers search through rubble in front of a Shinto shrine in residen-

The City of Santa Barbara will consider purchasing a home at 1020 Placido Avenue to be a new detox center. On the front, Wim Verkaik, Directorof Administration of The Council on Alcohol & Drug Abuse stands in front of the house.

DAILY SOUND / Victor Maccharoli

City may buy housefor new detox center

BY NICK C. TONKINDAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENT

Santa Barbara city leaders today willdecide whether to move a controversialdetox center out of the Casa Esperanzahomeless shelter and into a house neardowntown.The Santa Barbara City Council will

likely approve $865,000 in grant moneyto the city’s Housing Authority to buy ahouse at 1020 Placido Avenue to be a newhome for the program.The center, run by the Council on

Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, has longbeen part of the Casa Esperanza homelessshelter, but both sides believe it’s time to

part ways. The 12-bed detox center hasbeen located at Casa Esperanza, 816Cacique Street, since 2004.In the past year, however, there’s been

a surge in mentally ill shelter residentsand Casa is beginning to need more space.The increasing service demands at the

center make it difficult to maintain thetranquil environment required of a detoxcenter. Mike Foley, executive director of Casa

Esperanza, said the absence of the detoxcenter would give Casa more space for edu-cational purposes and provide better controlover the coming and going of residents.The center started at Casa as part of the

shelter’s goal of being a central locationfor all homeless services.This included a detox facility.

However, the idea behind the shelter is toget people to use services they needregardless of their sobriety. But in a detoxcenter like Project Recovery, residentshave made a commitment to get off drugsand alcohol. The center has strict rulesabout what residents can and can’t do.They are monitored around the clock,have a set schedule, and cannot consumedrugs and alcohol—none of which can besaid about Casa residents. “You want to create an environment

Cottage Health System’s Ron Werfthas been named the 2011 chair of theCalifornia Hospital Association.The CHA is one of the largest health

care trade associations in the country andrepresents more than 400 hospitals andhealth systems in California.“It’s truly an honor to lead an associa-

tion as respected as CHA,” Werft said ina prepared statement. “CHA has a well-earned reputation for effectively advocat-ing on behalf of hospitals and the patientsand communities we serve. This is espe-cially important for California’s commu-nity hospitals in these very challengingtimes.”Werft led Cottage during a major

growth expansion for the nonprofitorganization. Cottage Health System pur-chased St. Francis Medical Center, SantaYnez Valley Community Hospital andGoleta Valley Hospital, and now owns all

the hospitals in southern half of the coun-ty.A recent effort to purchase Sansum

Clinic, however, was unsuccessful.Werft said that the state’s budget crisis

and the uncertainties surrounding theimplementation of national health carereform make 2011 an critical year forhospitals and other health care providersin the state.“It’s important to acknowledge that the

governor and the Legislature face a mon-umental challenge in getting the state’sfiscal house in order,” Werft said. “And,although reasonable people can disagreeon the details of national health carereform, nearly everyone agrees with thegoal of improving coverage and care inour communities. We must be vigilant inour advocacy efforts to ensure that hospi-tals are able to meet the growing expecta-tions of our patients while making health

care more affordable and accessible toall.”Werft joined Cottage Health System in

1987 and became president/CEO in 2000.The hospital sees more than 20,000 inpa-tients and 64,000 emergency departmentvisitors each year. Cottage is the largestprivate employer in Santa BarbaraCounty.CHA President and CEO C. Duane

Dauner called Werft “an exceptionalchoice” to serve as CHA’s Board Chairduring such challenging times.“California’s community hospitals will

be well-served by having Ron Werftguide our association this coming year,”Dauner said. “Ron’s in-depth knowledgeof health care and his inspiring leadershipstyle will make him an effective advocatewith state and federal policymakers onbehalf of hospitals and the patients whoreceive care.”

Local raises funds for JapanBY NICK C. TONKIN

DAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENTIn the 10 years that Lia Suzuki trained

in Japan, she would get laughed at when-ever she ran to a doorway after feelingthe ground shake. “They were always so cool about

it,” Suzuki said. “So when I saw themrunning out of buildings, I knew, ‘Ohmy gosh, something big is going onhere,’” Suzuki now runs Aikido Kenkyukai

Santa Barbara, an aikido school in SantaBarbara, and is planning fundraisers tohelp the country that helped give her a15-year-and-counting career as an aikidoinstructor. Since turning her studio into a non-

profit in 2009, Suzuki has learned a lotabout fundraising to sponsor low-incomestudents, managing to raise money fromplaces like Scotland, Macedonia, and ofcourse, Japan. Those efforts helped her tomove classes out of a community churchand into a larger dojo on East MasonStreet. Now she’s going to use space inthat very dojo to return the favor.“We’ve had so much support from

Japan over the years,” Suzuki said, “Whynot now give back?”Wednesdays, the dojo will host a 15-

minute meditation session called“Gasshou”—which means “putting the

palms together”—where participants ofany age, aikido practitioner or not, canmeditate, pray, or just sit on the mat insilence. The session has a suggesteddonation of $10. In addition, the normal 6:30 p.m. adult

class will be a “Gohdoh Keiko”—mean-ing joint class—where aikido practition-ers from anywhere are invited to come to

the dojo and train. The class has a sug-gested donation of $15.“Any amount really does help,”

Suzuki said.FYI: Aikido Kenkyukai Santa Barbara

is located at 121A East Mason Street. Tosign up for either of the sessions or tofind out more go online to aksb.org orcall 870-5437.

the Cold Springs West Fork Trail.The woman, who authorities said was in her 50s, was unable

to walk. Her hiking companions called 911 for help.Crews from the Montecito Fire Department hiked more than

a mile up the trail, where they found the hiker, about 2 p.m.They used a stretcher to carry her outShe was carried to an ambulance and then taken to Santa

Wisc. Dems down but not outScott Walker, Wisconsin's newly elected Republican gover-

nor, won his battle last week to get the curbs he backed on pub-lic-sector unions approved by the state legislature and signedinto law.But the Democratic Party and organized labor, which

opposed the bill, show signs of being energized by the setback,which up-ends more than 50 years of collective bargaining bynurses, highway workers, nurses and other Wisconsin publicemployees.Mark Pocan, a Democratic member of the Assembly who

opposed the Walker bill, told protesters this week: "They mayhave won the battle, but I guarantee you they've lost the war."With Republican majorities in both the state Assembly and

the Senate making a legislative counter-attack impossible,Democrats and their allies are focusing their hopes on a numberof fronts, including eventually a recall campaign for Walker.

Quake would devistate CACalifornia will experience unthinkable damage when the next

powerful quake strikes, probably within 30 years, even thoughthe state prides itself on being on the leading edge of earthquakescience. Modern skyscrapers built to the state's now-rigorousbuilding codes might ride out the big jolt that experts say is allbut inevitable, but the surviving buildings will tower over a car-pet of rubble from older structures that have collapsed.Hot desert winds could fan fires that quakes inevitably cause,

overwhelming fire departments, even as ancient water pipelinesburst, engineers and architects say.Part of the lesson from the disaster that hit Japan on Friday is

that no amount of preparation can fully protect a region such asCalifornia that sits on top of fault lines.Even so, critics fear the state may have long skimped on

retrofitting older buildings. Yet the cost of cleaning up after abig quake is likely to be much higher than the cost of even themost expensive prevention, they warn.

“Emily and Einstein” by Linda Francis Lee,c.2011, St. Martin’s Press, $24.99 / $28.99Canada, 356 pages

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYERTHE BOOKWORM SEZ

Your dog can’t talk. But you knowexactly what he wants.One woof means “out.” A different

grumble means he wants a treat. A cer-tain look means “scratch my belly.” Sure,he may not carry on a conversation withyou, but he communicates just the sameand he gets you to do his bidding. One of you is very well-trained. Because of that, despite what scien-

tists say, it’s hard not to attribute humanqualities to animals that share yourhome. But you’ll never look at your dogagain in the same way, once you’ve read“Emily and Einstein”, the new novel byLinda Francis Lee.Alexander “Sandy” Portman was

going to ask his wife for a divorce. When he first laid eyes on Emily, he

knew he had to have her – and sinceSandy got everything he wanted, it wasonly a matter of time before he cajoledEmily into his arms, daring her to lovehim. She couldn’t resist. Alas, that was two years ago and now

it just wasn’t working for Sandy. Divorcewould break Emily’s heart. Oddly, hedidn’t care.But that was all before he died. It was

all before he begged the old man in

feathers for a second chance. Before theold man, cruel jokester that he was, gaveSandy a new body he wasn’t happy hav-ing…Saving the scruffy, wire-haired little

mutt was all that was important to Emilyin the days after Sandy’s accident. Nother shaky job at Caldecote Press, not herwild younger sister, not the fact thatSandy’s mother was being a harridan,nothing else distracted her like takingcare of the dog she named Einstein. Shehad spent money she didn’t have on sav-

ing the pooch and though she initiallyhad no intention of adopting him, shewas ultimately glad she did. He was a curmudgeonly little guy,

kind of stand-offish, but he surely livedup to his name! Einstein was so smart.He seemed to know everything aboutEmily and he acted as if he’d lived in herDakota apartment all his life. Strangestof all, he reminded her so much ofSandy…Who really resides within the fur of

the four-legged one at your feet? You’llthink of plenty of possibilities to ponderwhen you’re finished reading thisadorably smart book. “Emily andEinstein” is one of those novels that cap-tures your imagination and takes it for aride. I really enjoyed the way author Linda

Francis Lee leads her readers with obser-vations through the eyes of a small,fuzzy, accidentally-quadrupedal man,and the way she envisions his spirituallife is just perfect. Lee was so good atcreating Einstein, in fact, that youshouldn’t be surprised if your mind isdrawn to your own pet and his human-like characteristics: what, exactly, isgoing on behind those liquid “Pet Me”eyes? More fun than a squeaky ball, tastier

than a bacon-flavored bone, “Emily andEinstein” will charm you quick. If you’relooking for something cute to read, this isthe book you want.

The international events of thelast few weeks, culminating with thetragic suffering and possible nuclearcatastrophe in Japan, demonstratesquite clearly how fragile this humanrace is.We crave stability... we seek con-

sistency, in a world that guaranteesneither. Seeing the shell-shockedfaces of our fellow humans, I'mreminded that it could easily be mewalking numbly through the rem-nants of Goleta, searching for lovedones.Chances are many of you are saddened or

stressed out by the news reports from Japanand its possible dire implications for the WestCoast. We all deal with it differently.My wife cooks. So far this morning

(Sunday) she's created four separate disheswithin three hours. I suppose the purchase of alcohol at the

local stores is peaking as the news gets worst.The church next to my home has placed a

large sign asking everyone to prayfor Japan.Me? Well, I must admit that even

though I talk a good game ofdetachment and self-reliance, put-ting it into practice takes a clear-minded and devoted effort. Themind feeds on doubt and can turnon us in a second and make ourexistence miserable.The heart, however, wants us to

be in peace. Even amidst total dev-astation...even when it seems that

the end is near and no light can be seen,something is whispering, "All is well".This internal and eternal commitment to

our heart is our true strength. The protection,love, and support we seek has never left ourside and when this recent wave of pain andsuffering passes, that essence will still beshining for all to see.

OFF TOPIC: Yesterday Microsoft discon-tinued development of their portable iPod-likemusic player named "Zune." Word circulatingin the tech media is that Microsoft willreplace it with a new online music servicenamed "Ventura" that will compete with thepopular music streaming service Pandora. Theonly problem is that Microsoft doesn't ownVentura.com - The Restaurant Guy does andhas since 1998.

where there are no people with drug oralcohol use that’s continuing,” Foley said.And the recent influx of homeless has

made keeping that environment moredifficult. Foley also said that with thedetox center moved, Casa would be ableto designate an entrance and an exit,which would make it easier to keep trackof residents and also reduce disturbancesin the neighborhood—a growing com-plaint from the nearby Milpas communi-ty since the shelter opened.Santa Barbara Mayor Helene

Schneider said relocating the center hasbeen part of the city’s updated 12 pointplan to end chronic homelessness.The 12-bed recovery program is cur-

rently the only one on the South Coast.Complicating the issue is the require-

ment that men and women not share thesame room. The Casa location—which

has only two bedrooms—is confined tomen, who make up the greater share ofdetox patients. Restricting participants tosix, particularly when there may be halfor less as many women, can be serious“They finally say, ‘Ok, I’m ready,’ and

then get told, ‘Well there’s a waitingperiod for two-weeks can you hold on?’”Schneider said. “By the time two weeksgo by, they may not last,” Women end up being sent to facilities

in Lompoc or Santa Maria. The new cen-ter would give greater flexibility on thatscore. With a larger number of bed-rooms, gender assignments could bemade more readily available.Given neighborhood responses to

other homeless housing projects, largerpublic outreach measures have beentaken to assuage the worries of PlacidoStreet neighbors.Penny Jenkins, President of CADA,

said there are a lot of misconceptionsabout detox facilities.

Jenkins said too many people hear“detox” and think screaming patientsbreaking out in the middle of the nightand wandering the streets. “It’s not like that,” Jenkins said. “It’s

very much a treatment; it’s like going toa hospital room so you can get healthyand go on to the next step.”Jenkins said residents are not allowed

to wander outside on their own. Staffersare on hand 24-hours a day. There are nounsupervised visits from guests. The cen-ter makes discharge plans with eachpatient so that when the program endsthey’re not right back out on the streets.If the council approves the grant, the

property will go into escrow the next day.Jenkins said some modifications willhave to be made to the property to ensurehandicapped access, enlarging thekitchen, and acquiring furniture. Jenkinsestimated the center could be up by Maybut cautioned that much of it dependedon construction time.

Tokyo. As concern about the cripplingeconomic impact of the double disastermounted, Japanese stocks plunged 7.0percent to their lowest level in nearly twoyears, compounding a drop of 7.6 per-cent the day before. The two-day fall haswiped around $500 billion off the mar-ket.There have been a total of four explo-

sions at the plant since it was damaged inlast Friday's massive earthquake andtsunami.Authorities had previously been trying

to prevent meltdowns in three of theFukishima Daiichi complex's nuclearreactors by flooding the chambers withsea water to cool them down.The full extent of the destruction

wreaked by last Friday's massive quake

and tsunami that followed it was stillbecoming clear, as rescuers combedthrough the region north of Tokyo whereofficials say at least 10,000 people werekilled."It's a scene from hell, absolutely

nightmarish," said Patrick Fuller of theInternational Red Cross Federation fromthe northeastern coastal town of Otsuchi.Kan has said Japan is facing its worst

crisis since World War Two and, with thefinancial costs estimated at up to $180billion, analysts said it could tip theworld's third-biggest economy back intorecession.The U.S. Geological Survey upgraded

the quake to magnitude 9.0, from 8.9,making it the world's fourth most power-ful since 1900.Car makers, shipbuilders and technol-

ogy companies worldwide scrambled forsupplies after the disaster shut factories

in Japan and disrupted the global manu-facturing chain.BLAST DAMAGES ROOF,WORKERS TOLD TO LEAVEThe fear at the Fukushima plant is of a

major radiation leak after the quake andtsunami knocked out cooling systems.Jiji news agency said the first explo-

sion on Tuesday damaged the roof andsteam was rising from the complex. Italso reported some workers had beentold to leave the plant, a developmentone expert had warned beforehandcould signal a worsening stage for thecrisis.The worst nuclear accident since the

Chernobyl disaster in Ukraine in 1986has drawn criticism that authorities wereill-prepared and revived debate in manycountries about the safety of atomicpower.

lighter volume on a down day since thatcould suggest less enthusiasm for sell-ing," said Hank Herrmann, chief execu-tive of Waddell & Reed Financial Inc in,which manages $90 billion in assets.Nuclear power stocks fell after explo-

sions at a Japanese plant. The MarketVectors uranium and nuclear energyexchange traded fund slumped 12 per-

cent while the Global X Uranium ETFsank 17 percent. But the Market VectorsSolar Energy ETF of alternative energyshares climbed 7.2 percent.Shaw Group sank 9.2 percent to $34.87

in the session while Cameco Corpdropped 13 percent to $32.62 on the NewYork Stock Exchange. Both nuclear powercompanies traded on volume that wasmore than 10 times their 10-day average.General Electric Co, which has com-

bined nuclear ventures with Hitachi Ltd,

dropped 2.2 percent to $19.92 and wasthe top percentage decliner on the Dow."This is a knee-jerk reaction, but it

could put a lid on building new nuclearplants," said James Dunigan, chiefinvestment officer at PNC WealthManagement in Philadelphia, whichoversees $105 billion.Japanese ports handling about 7 per-

cent of the country's industrial outputsustained major damage, disrupting theflow of goods globally.
