I’d like to comment on the treatment I received at the Malibu Saint John’s Health Center. Last Friday, after suffering from excruciating pain from a rib injury, I finally decided I’d better see a doctor to find out if any of the ribs were fractured. Having sustained the injury on the previous Saturday, and seeing the pain was getting only worse, I felt I had to do “something” about it.

A week prior to that, my houseguest went to Saint John’s Health Center after contracting one of those nasty respiratory bugs, so I decided to give it a try myself. We all know what a drag it is to go to any E.R. facility the hospitals offer. If you arrive even halfway ambulatory, you are faced with all sorts of forms to fill out and endless hours of waiting in abject misery and discomfort. It’s enough to make you even sicker.

My experience at the health center was a revelation. The waiting time was minimal, the attention and care given made me think that’s how health care must have been decades ago, before HMOs and huge medical conglomerates, when the patient was treated and viewed as an individual rather than a biological cipher.

The attending physician, Dr. Gillingham, couldn’t have been more solicitous and reassuring and I’d like to express my sincere thanks for the excellent care I was given. I just hope the center will always be there and I think we who live in Malibu and have the need for such a facility should make sure it remains where it is.

Erna Segal

Of all the decisions any of you are going to make this election year, the most important by far is the Congressional race in which the incumbent freshman congressman Brad Sherman is being challenged by software mogul Randy Hoffman. The race transcends the two men involved. It really is a plebiscite on the question of the impeachment of President Bill Clinton.

A vote for Hoffman is a vote to impeach Clinton. A vote for Sherman is a vote to continue Clinton in office. That’s the way the vote is going to be understood and read in Washington D.C. The vote in our Congressional district and a few other similarly situated swing districts will send a message to both the House and Senate, and most certainly they’ll use it to help themselves decide the impeachment question. As for me, I wish Clinton had resigned, but I think it would be a disaster for the country if he were impeached, which is the reason I endorse Sherman.

There is another race, a local race, in which I wish another incumbent had decided not to run. Our sheriff, Sherman Block, is a man who has served this county long and well, but he never should have run for re-election. His health is failing rapidly, the department is drifting and it needs newer, younger leadership. The only way to get that is to vote for former chief Lee Baca.

Proposition 3.

I got this wrong last week. This is actually a proposition to restore the partisan primary, but I still have the same opinion. If Sen. Burton and Bruce Herschensohn can agree, it’s probably a good idea. Vote Yes.

Proposition 4 — Trapping Practices

While most of us who wish to protect wildlife abhor the use of leghold traps and poisons, this proposition would do little to ensure more humane methods for the licensed trapping of fur-bearing animals, currently permitted under state law, and the management of rogue animals.

State Fish and Game officers currently use cage traps wherever possible to remove and relocate bears, mountain lions and other predators that have killed livestock, domestic animals or that threaten humans. Landowners are permitted to shoot any such animal that poses a threat. Wildlife experts say this proposition would ban tools needed to conserve threatened and endangered species and force cruel alternatives to control problem predators, including traps that kill. And the cost to taxpayers of enforcing this law is prohibitive. Vote No.

Proposition 6 — Horses

This is another unneeded measure sponsored by animal rights activists with good intentions. It would ban the transport of horses to slaughterhouses where the meat would be used for human consumption. California has no such plants. There is no law prohibiting the use of horse meat for pet or human consumption, nor should there be, even though most people find this repugnant. Vote No.

Proposition 7 — Air Quality Improvement

If we want clean air, we’ve got to be prepared to pay for it, so this rather modest proposal sounds like a sensible proposition to me. Vote Yes.

Proposition 8 — Public Schools

This is the governor’s proposition, and he absolutely hates the California Teachers Association. This rather convoluted measure is an attempt to make their lives miserable. It is nasty, badly thought out and takes power and authority away from the local school districts and centers it in Sacramento where it doesn’t belong. A definite No.

Proposition 9 — Electric Utilities

This one is so confusing, I certainly can’t figure out its impact. So follow that old adage, “When in doubt, vote ‘No.'” This is absolutely the kind of very complex issue we shouldn’t have to deal with on a ballot proposition.

Proposition 10 — State & County Early Childhood Development Programs

This is the Rob Reiner proposition, and I think the extra money from cigarette taxes will do wonders to help the children of California. The proposition could be better written, but the opposition arguments are typical tobacco industry palaver. Vote Yes.

Proposition 11 — Local Sales & Use Tax Revenue Sharing

Hopefully, if this passes, cities will get together and jointly share revenue from the “Big Box” retailers, and those same retailers won’t be able to play the cities off against each other quite as easily. No one knows if it will work, but it’s worth the try. Vote Yes.

Proposition A — The MTA

This is Zev Yaroslavsky’s proposition to stop the subway. The MTA has become just about the largest pork barrel in the history of Los Angeles and is rife with corruption. It’s got to be cleaned up and stopped, and this is the only way to do it. Vote Yes.

School Elections. I must confess I have a terrible way of evaluating school elections, since I frequently don’t know very much about the candidates. I want board members who at least know that Malibu exists and then consider us in their decision making process. I look to see who advertises their candidacy in the local Malibu papers. I don’t care which paper. I just want to see that Malibu crosses their radar screen and the best measure of that is where they put their money. Based upon that rather primitive analysis, I calculate:

For Santa Monica Community College Board of Trustees

Joe Girard

Carole Currey

Herb Roney

Dorothy Ehrhart-Morrison

For SM-Malibu Unified School District

Karen Paris

Tom Pratt

Pam Brady

Julia Brownley

Most of all, get to the polls, and make certain to vote Yes on all the justices.

As a homeowner and the parent of three children in Malibu public schools, I am enthused and concerned, respectively, about the potential outcomes for Proposition X on the Nov. 3 ballot. While there is no formal opposition to this school bond measure – in large part, because it will cause no net increase in our property taxes – the impact of this decision, either way, will be strongly felt.

My enthusiasm comes from the improvements that will be made to our local schools if this bond measure does pass! All three elementary schools will gain much-needed classroom space, and will benefit from enhancements to facilities ranging from earthquake and safety upgrades to increased space for enrichment and after-school activities. Malibu High School will add a 10-classroom building and a high school-quality gymnasium and track, as well as update its auditorium. How proud we will all be of the educational standards that can be met with these improvements, and of the students that benefit from them!

My concern stems from the possibility that Proposition X may not pass. As with all bond measures, it requires the approval of 67 percent of the voters. Although residents of our district have made education a high priority in the past, it is always a challenge to achieve the necessary result at the polls. If the bond loses by even 1 percent, our schools will continue to be vastly overcrowded. Currently, the high school has 25 percent more students than it was built to accommodate! Children are taught in the teachers’ lounge and in gymnasium team rooms. Point Dume did not receive the basic improvements from the ES bond, as it had not reopened yet, and is in desperate need of reconstruction. Some improvements are mandated by law, and without this bond the district will need to squeeze funds from its annual operating budget, taking from current programs.

Of course, the benefits of strong public schools go to those without school-age children, as well. We will all see our property values enhanced, and, due to the refinancing of previous debt at lower interest rates, we will not see our property taxes rise above current levels. Also, a portion of the bond proceeds will go directly to improving recreational facilities on school grounds, which will increase the ability of the community to share in their usage.

Please vote “Yes on X”, and remember – your vote doesn’t count unless you send in your absentee ballot on time or make it to the polls on Nov. 3!

My cousin doesn’t speak to her mother. It exploded the eve of my uncle’s funeral, when my cousin attended her husband’s singing engagement at a nightclub. Her mother’s needs were not attended. More than a dozen years have passed since.

A lovely friend rents a home from her parents. She’s a great cat lover, but her mom doesn’t want animals on the property. The woman doesn’t want to “rock the boat.”

Another pal has a warm relationship with her mom, although she knows well her mother’s shortcomings. Despite this, she can’t seem to help herself from repeating parenting blunders with her teen-ager. She sometimes feels it’s like “flying blind.”

I was not raised by my mother. A multitude of mistakes already has been committed in the mothering of my own young daughter. Where does one go from here?

Those looking for positive endings to these and their own stories will find help in “Mending the Broken Bough: Restoring the Promise of the Mother- Daughter Relationship” (Berkley/Penguin Puttnam; 1998), by Barbara Zax, Ph.D. and Stephan Poulter, Ph.D.

The doctors are in.

“Mending the Broken Bough” is unlike what’s out there in women’s magazines, in parenting magazines or in single volumes of self-help. It doesn’t just tackle anger, anxiety, depression, self-image or sexuality; the book takes on these topics and more expansive ones.

Early chapters explore the concept of attachment; the development of self- image nurtured or hindered by various mothering styles; the ways families interact productively or disengage communication and the multigenerational evolution of family life.

Later chapters are devoted to the “rules” passed from mother to daughter; the concepts of separation and independence; the “stumbling blocks” that seem to prevent resolution and lastly, reconciliation.

The first-time authors conducted nearly seven years of research to compile the book; it’s little wonder the result is comprehensive. Case histories examine minor and major conflicts underlying relationships. Those with no psychology background as well as those who’ve experienced psychotherapy benefit from insights into feelings of abandonment, envy, deficiency and guilt.

The guide is well laid out. Its subheadings, bullets, charts and lists make for an easy read. Perhaps its best feature is “Mending Moves.” Short, practical suggestions on how to strengthen the mother-daughter bond appear throughout.

Men, too, can get a clue. The book is for husbands who grab the golf clubs every time their mothers-in-law visit. It’s for the boyfriend who says, “See ya” when his girlfriend suggests he join her for dinner at Mom’s. It’s for the dad who thinks his mother-in-law is whacked, his wife is nuts and their daughter is just as goofy.

“Every woman is a daughter,” says Poulter. “Every daughter has a mother and has to reconcile with that mother both internally and externally. The cycle of blaming and mother-bashing is nonproductive.

“As men, the better we understand that’s it all connected, the more we can become better sons, husbands, fathers and grandfathers.”
