Zizzo’s sizzles in GoletaBY NICK C. TONKIN

DAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENTIn the face of economic uncertainty,

Sue and Michael McDonald have trans-formed South County's only remainingdrive-through coffee shop from a fran-chise branch into a mom-and-pop store.

Zizzo’s Coffee, on Storke Road justpast the Camino Real Marketplace inGoleta, has been going strong for morethan two years. The McDonalds say thesecret to their success is right in theshop’s motto, “Good Friends, GreatCoffee.”

They also credit advice and supportfrom Women’s Economic Ventures, anonprofit organization that providestraining to aspiring small business own-ers.

Sue, a licensed real estate agent, saidshe and her husband got their start a fewyears ago when they decided to do some-thing different with their lives. Both havebeen self-admitted coffee lovers for manyyears and Sue said that a coffee house isone of the few places that can changesomeone’s mood within 15 minutes.

“You give them that cup of coffee andthey leave happy,” Sue said.

That’s when the idea of a coffee housecame to them. Being small businessnovices, the McDonalds’ sought out fran-chises to avoid having to, “go it alone.”

They found their match in Zizzo’sCoffee, with its upscale granite-and-wood look and surf theme. The companyprovided the McDonalds with two-weektraining and operating manuals and theywere off.

But after a year, the owner decided tosell and offered the McDonalds thechance to go independent. The prospectseemed daunting, but the McDonaldstook it on.

Still new at business, the McDonaldsput their networking skills to the test,getting advice from all their business-owning friends. Sue also enrolled inWomen’s Economic Ventures’ SelfEmployment Training course.

While the McDonalds’ friends hadplenty of business management advicefor them, they didn’t find much encour-agement.

“Everyone we talked to said ‘don't doit,’” Sue laughed.

But Sue said WEV gave plenty of sup-

port, even for someone with a businessalready in hand. The McDonalds had tohammer out a business plan.

“It makes you think of everything,”Sue said.

Things seemed tough at first. Theyhad little experience managing employ-ees and the drive-through meant havingmore people on hand during the morningand afternoon rushes.

Sue herself admits she had a fear ofcustomer service back then. Shedescribed herself in training as, “A deerin headlights,” a problem in an industrywhere customer service can make orbreak a shop.

“People will go out of their way to goto a coffee house that has good customerservice and not go back to one that does-n’t,” Sue said.

But Sue found herself rising to thechallenge, memorizing names, drinkorders, and sharing her life with her cus-tomers.

As testament, a Zizzo’s regular invited

the McDonalds to his wedding. Sueremembers him sharing the details of thecourtship right up to the moment whenthe man walked in and told theMcDonalds, “I proposed.”

Sue recalled the moment after the manleft with his coffee that day.

“Michael turned to me and said ‘that'dwhy we do this business!’” Sue said.

Running their own business has giventhe McDonalds more control over theirlives and new opportunities to make theirmark in Goleta. The shop holds bands,movie nights, and even a fireworks view-ing party on the Fourth of July.

“There’s just a lot of flexibility forwhat you can do for yourself or for thecommunity,” Sue said.

FYI: Zizzo’s Coffee is at 370 StorkeRoad, Goleta. 571-8888.

WEV is holding orientations for itsfall courses on August 25 and 31 from12—1 p.m. For registration or moreinformation call 965-6073 or go onlineto www.wevonline.org

Gaddafi flees Tripoli HQ ransacked by rebels

See LYBIA, page 12

TRIPOLI (Reuters) — A beleagueredMuammar Gaddafi vowed onWednesday to fight on to death or victo-ry after rebels forced him to abandon hisTripoli stronghold in what appeared to bea decisive blow against the Libyanleader's 42-year rule.

Gleeful rebels ransacked Gaddafi'sBab al-Aziziya bastion, seizing weaponsand smashing symbols of a governmentwhose demise will transform Libya andsend a warning to other Arab autocratsfacing popular uprisings.

Gaddafi said his withdrawal from his

headquarters in the heart of the capitalwas a tactical move after it had been hitby 64 NATO air strikes and he vowed"martyrdom" or victory in his fightagainst the alliance.

Urging Libyans to cleanse the streetsof traitors, he said he had secretly touredTripoli.

"I have been out a bit in Tripoli dis-creetly, without being seen by people,and ... I did not feel that Tripoli was indanger," Gaddafi said.

He was speaking to pro-Gaddafimedia outlets and his whereabouts after

leaving the compound remain a mystery,although he appeared to have been inTripoli, at least until recently.

As night fell on Tuesday after a day inwhich rebels overran Tripoli, meeting lit-tle resistance with few casualties, heavyfighting was reported in a southern desertcity, Sabha, that rebels forecast would beGaddafi loyalists' last redoubt.

Forces loyal to Gaddafi were shellingthe towns of Zuara and Ajelat, west ofTripoli, Al-Arabiya television reported.

Once-a-century temblorrattles East Coast

WASHINGTON (Reuters) — strongearthquake rattled the East Coast onTuesday, sending tremors as far asCanada, damaging well-known buildingsin the nation’s capital and sending scaredoffice workers into the streets.

There were no reports of major dam-age or serious injuries from the 5.8 mag-nitude quake, which was centered inMineral, Virginia, about 90 miles south-west of Washington, D.C.

It was the largest quake in Virginiasince 1897 and struck at a shallow depth,increasing its potency.

The Pentagon, White House and U.S.Capitol were evacuated in Washington,and thousands of alarmed workers scurriedinto the streets up and down the East Coastas the lunchtime quake sent items crashingdown from store and office shelves.

“We were rocking,” said Larry Beach,who works at the U.S. Agency forInternational Development in downtownWashington. “It was definitely significant.”

Federal workers were sent home early.Washington’s National Cathedral, host

to state funerals and memorial services formany U.S. presidents, suffered damagewith three spires in the central towerbreaking off. The U.S. East Coast does notnormally experience quakes as strong asTuesday’s. The U.S. Geological Surveysaid the quake was of 5.8 magnitude,downgrading an earlier estimate if 5.9.

Earthquakes of magnitude 5.5 cancause damage to buildings and otherstructures.

In addition to the Virginia earthquake,there were nine tremors in the areaimmediately around Cokedale, Colorado,near the border of New Mexico.

“Today we had two significant earth-quakes shake large portions of the coun-try,” said David Wald, a geophysicistwith the USGS.

“The Western earthquake, magnitude5.3, within the last 24 hours, shookroughly four western states, primarilyColorado and New Mexico, but also partsof Kansas, Oklahoma as well as Texas --large states, but probably experienced bytens of thousands of people,” he said.

U.S. CAPITOL SHAKENAs if a rare strong earthquake were not

enough, the East Coast was also on alertfor powerful Hurricane Irene which washeading up from the Caribbean and couldhit at the weekend.

The quake made chandeliers sway inthe U.S. Capitol and the floor of the U.S.Senate shook before staff headed for theexits. Some minor damage could be seenin the rotunda, under the dome of theCapitol.

Bits of paint and plaster fell from highon the walls and chunks of plaster fellfrom above a doorway in the Capitol’sStatuary Hall. The U.S. Congress is inrecess so most members were away.

“I thought at first somebody was shak-ing my chair and then I thought maybe itwas a bomb,” said Senate aide WendyOscarson-Kirchner.

Phone service was disrupted through-out the region as network congestionblocked cell phone users from makingcalls.

There were also nuclear safety fearswhen one of four emergency diesel gen-erators at the North Anna nuclear powerplant in Virginia lost power due to thequake and automatically halted opera-tions.

The plant operated by DominionResources was designed to withstand anearthquake of magnitude up to 6.2, acompany spokesman said. Dominion

reported no major damage to the facility.Three generators were needed to kick

in and keep the reactors’ radioactivecores cool. A fourth diesel unit failed.

In New York, the tremors promptedevacuations of courthouses, City Halland halted work at the World TradeCenter construction site.

“What a spooky, strange feeling,” saidBilly Simeonidis, the owner ofBareBurger in Brooklyn. “You just don’thave any control. I don’t know how theydo it on the West Coast.”

Control towers at John F. KennedyInternational Airport in New York Cityand Newark Liberty Airport in NewJersey were also evacuated, and flightswere grounded briefly in Washington,Philadelphia and New York.

The quake was felt as far away asToronto. Buildings in Boston were evac-uated, and some people who experiencedswaying offices said they felt their stom-achs turn.

“We see we had shaking from Canadaand Maine all the way down to Georgiaand in Michigan and Illinois. So this wasover about 20 states,” said the USGS’sWald.

Evacuated workers seek safety on the median strip in the middle of Washingtonʼs New YorkAvenue in front of the U.S. Treasury Department building (L-Rear) yesterday, following a mag-nitude 5.9 earthquake struck the U.S. East Coast.

Officer Adrian Gutierrez speaks to a group about starting a neighborhood watch program. On the front page, Sharon Byrne attends the neigh-borhood watch meeting

DAILY SOUND / Victor Maccharoli

Stopping the violenceBY LYZ HOFFMAN

DAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENTFor residents of the lower Eastside, it

was a step forward.About 30 members of the Milpas

community met for the first timeTuesday at Our Lady of Guadalupechurch to discuss instituting a neighbor-hood watch program.

Residents said they could no longertolerate drug use, gang violence andother inappropriate behavior.

“We want a better quality of life in theMilpas corridor, said Sharon Byrne, theexecutive director of the MilpasCommunity Association (MCA), whichhosted the meeting. “We all deserve ahealthy, clean, safe neighborhood.”

The watch program is meant to focusmainly on six-to-eight particular blocks,mainly those bounded by Cacique,Voluntario, Punta Gorda and Salinasstreets. Neighborhood watch signs, paidfor by the MCA, will be posted through-out the area. And a clean-up is plannedfor Sept. 10 to unite neighbors who wantthe area they call home to feel – and look– safer.

“We’re pouring a lot of resources intothat neighborhood,” Byrne said. “If we

succeed, it will be great for the neighborsand great for the city.”

Santa Barbara Police Officer AdrianGutierrez has more than one vested inter-est in seeing the neighborhood watchprogram succeed. In the line of duty,Gutierrez has witnessed the violence ofwhich the residents complain. And he isalso a Milpas-area resident himself.

Gutierrez, who listened to the atten-dees concerns, stressed the benefits of aneighborhood watch program, saying itcan help serve as “the eyes and ears forthe police.”

“I’d like to see more communicationamongst residents,” he said.

And at last night’s meeting, communi-cate they did. As the meeting progressed,residents formed watch groups accordingto their streets of residence, shared con-tact information and made plans forfuture meetings.

A male resident, who signed up to bepart of the neighborhood watch, saidthat, although such actions are good,there are possibly other ways of dealingwith the problem. “We need more pre-ventative measures,” he said. “Children’seducation starts in the home.”

Two residents in attendance, a couple

who volunteered to be “block captains,”shared their desire to get involved afteryears of living in the area. They recallhow a man was once stabbed in front oftheir home while they were eating dinner.“People are kind of scared,” they said.

The MCA, which strives to make thearea “a place where everyone can live,work, play, go to school, and prosper,”was formed in October of last year onlydays prior to the murder of George Ied.Syrian immigrant Ied was beaten todeath, allegedly by four Eastside gangmembers, while walking to his SalinasStreet home after work.

In addition to the neighborhood watchprogram, the MCA has also seen that apolice department gang suppression teamstart patrolling the area, along with gangintervention resources. The Associationhas also led marches for public safety,organized multiple neighborhood clean-ups (including weekly graffiti removal),and made street lights more visible.

One woman cited her firsthand experi-ences with carjacking and mugging asher reasons for attending the meeting.

“It gets old,” she said, of the violence.“But this…this is good.”

LONDON (Reuters) - British youngstersare ditching Dickens, Shakespeare and Keatsfor Facebook and Twitter, with one in six fail-ing to read a single book in a month, accordingto a survey.

The poll, which questioned 18,141 childrenaged eight to 17, also showed less than half ofyoungsters choose to read a book outside ofclass at least once a month.

Instead, children's exposure to the writtenword arises mostly from sending messages viatexting, emails, and social networking sitessuch as Facebook and Twitter.

The poll was carried out for British charitythe National Literacy Trust. "Getting thesechildren reading and helping them to lovereading is the way to turn their lives aroundand give them new opportunities and aspira-tions," said Trust Director Jonathan Douglas ina statement.

Older pupils were "considerably more like-ly" to say they have not read any book in thepast month than their younger counterparts,the survey showed.

The trends it highlighted could have signif-icant consequences for the children as theyenter adulthood.

"We are worried that they will grow up to bethe 1 in 6 adults who struggle with literacy tothe extent that they read to the level expectedof an 11-year-old or below," Douglas said.

With indications that reading frequency hasa direct link to attainment, fresh approachesare "urgently needed" to encourage young peo-ple to read more, the charity said.

It described Secretary for EducationMichael Gove's proposals that all pupils aged11 should read 50 books a year as a "huge chal-lenge" in the light of the findings.

a neighborhood is not made of buildings,it’s made of people.”

The vote was identical to last year’sdecision, 4 to 2, with CouncilmembersMichael Self and Dale Francisco againapposing. Mayor Helene Schneider wasabsent.

Both Francisco and Self had issuewith the proposed structure’s neighbor-hood compatibility, and Francisco saidthat ultimately his decision was influ-enced by a process he said was “tainted.”

Brandon argued that the size of theproposal – which would expand thegarage, add a “granny flat”, and expandthe main house – is too large and thematerials too foreign.

“How can anyone say that an industri-al style, metal roofed, metal sided build-ing is compatible with our neighbor-hood’s character?” she asked.

Her supporters echoed her concerns.One, Miranda Livernas, was especiallycritical of the project’s look.

“Some people like hairlessChihuahuas – I don’t know…” she said.“How are any of you going to stand itwhen people look at it and say ‘whoauthorized that?’”

Others, including Self and Don Haws,a member of the Westside NeighborhoodWatch Committee, said that the buildingclashed with the traditional style archi-

tecture of the neighborhood. Four associ-ations back Brandon.

But many, including councilmanFrank Hotchkiss, said that the neighbor-hood displays an eclectic array ofdesigns and will accommodate modernarchitecture.

Some further argued that even oncecharming portions of the area werefalling into decay.

“Fifty percent of historical lookinghomes in the neighborhood are rotting,infested with termites, or illegaldwellings,” said neighbor Rick Hannay.“It’s time for a renaissance, that renais-sance will include new materials.”

Part of Brandon’s appeal centeredaround the decision of staff to allow theproject to proceed to final approvalregardless of “illegal plans” and “mis-handling and bias” on behalf of staff.

Brandon said that a protruding portionof an upper story was not in compliancewith zoning laws after the project hadpassed preliminary approval. Staff with-drew the approval and then quickly rein-stated it following the removal of thisportion of the design.

Staff felt that the provisions madewere in compliance with what was setforth by the council in their initial deci-sion to oppose Brandon’s appeal. Theyreceived advice from City AttorneySteve Wiley before proceeding.

During Brandon’s half-hour slideshow presentation she outlined what she

perceives is a conspiracy involving thearchitect, Clay Aurell, who is also amember of the Architectural Board ofReview, and staff.

She showed several letters in the slideshow that she said implicate Aurell ofhaving inappropriate contact with staff.Aurell is under investigation byCalifornia Fair Political PracticesCommission following Ferguson’s com-plaint. Wiley said that his case should notbe a factor to influence the council’sdecision.

Aurell counter attacked Brandon byquestioning the sincerity of her appeal.He showed video of Brandon telling theBoard in August last year that she wouldbe ok with the plans if her privacy con-cerns were addressed.

A window seven feet up was reducedin size, and the protruding second storyportion eliminated – yet though Brandonattests that the privacy issues have beenresolved, she still appealed the case.

Many begrudged the time and moneyspent during the lengthy process, andboth sides have made numerous accusa-tions against the other and claim theirneighbors support. CouncilmanHarwood “Bendy” White said he hopesthat peace will be restored and the issuelaid to rest.

“I heard harsh words on both sides,”he said. “I would hope that now every-one can move forward.”
