Occupy SB clangs andwhistles at CourthouseOccupy Santa Barbara pro-

testors organized outside theSanta Barbara CountyCourthouse yesterday after-noon to speak out againstforeclosure rates in SantaBarbara and show support fora similar demonstration inSacramento.A group of around 25 pro-

testors blew whistles, chant-ed, and clanged metal potswith wooden spoons outsidethe courthouse in an attemptto disrupt and discouragetrustee sale auctions, which

sell foreclosed properties tothe highest bidder.Over the past 12 months,

notices of default — the firststep in the foreclosure filingprocess — have risen by overfive percent in Santa BarbaraCounty, according to foreclo-sureradar.com.Michael Merenda, a Santa

Barbara resident who lost hishome in a court battle unrelat-ed to foreclosures, said theforeclosure crisis was detri-mental to multiple areas ofthe American economy andsociety.“My concern is the effect

it’s having on our culture,”

Merenda said. “This is thelargest land-grab in the histo-ry of the United States.Everything is being affected— education, healthcare, andwith every foreclosure,there’s a devaluation of [otherhomeowner’s properties].”At about 12:45 p.m., sever-

al representatives from theindependent companies thatrun the trustee sale auctionsarrived outside the court-house. The representativesread off names of foreclosedproperties for sale through theprotestors’ cacophony ofclanking pots and whistles.The foreclosure process

begins with a notice ofdefault, a document issuedand legally recorded after aborrower fails to meet theterms of their loan, statingthat the borrower’s propertyis now forfeit. The bank issu-ing the original loan is thenrequired to provide a notice oftrustee sale, which sets anauction date for the fore-closed property.Joseph Holland, the Santa

Barbara County Recorder andAssessor, said Santa BarbaraCounty has been no exceptionto the nationwide increase in

Santa Barbara protestors on Monday spoke out against the high foreclosure rate in Santa Barbara. Similar events were held in Sacramento.DAILY SOUND / Victor Maccharoli

A disagreement over amute button is making a lot ofnoise at Santa Barbara CityHall.The City Council at 2 p.m.

today is scheduled to decidewhether the developer of agas station remodel on CoastVillage road should install amute button on his digitaladvertising screens.The planning commission

has already approved theproject, which includes a newmini-mart and car wash. Butat issue today is whether theadvertising screens shouldhave mute buttons, whichwould allow people at thepump to silence the noise.“I, for one, will not go to a

gas station with those things,”said planning commissionerand former Santa BarbaraMayor Sheila Lodge. She saidthat adding a mute button todisplay screens would givethe Santa Barbara and out-of-town customer the luxury ofmuting advertisements duringthe 5 long minutes it takes tofill up their tank.Lodge said more cus-

tomers might come toChevron if they had theoption of muting the screens.Unfortunately, it may not

be that simple.Pumpflix, the company

behind the Display TopperUnits, doesn't offer such anoption.The planning commission

on March 15 approved theproject, but added as a condi-

tion that the owner of theChevron gas station must adda mute button to all of the dig-ital advertisement screenslocated at each pump, if “fea-sible.”Since then, the condition to

offer an option to mute noisycommercials has caused aflurry of exchanges betweenthe owners of the gas stationand the PlanningCommission.Doug Fell, the attorney for

the owners of Chevron andwho is representing thisappeal, said it doesn’t make

any sense for the screens toinclude a mute button.Fell said that Pumpflix, the

company that has been con-tracted to install DisplayTopper Units at Chevron,does not currently have thetechnology to add a mute but-ton into the screens, which are

already up. And afterresearching similar compa-nies like Pumpflix, Felllearned that none of themoffered the technology tomute their units either. Sincethere is no known technology

Presidential candidate Barack Obama, his Blackberry alwaysclose at hand, was the darling of the technology world and itrewarded him with generous donations to his 2008 campaign.Although he is still raising far more money there than current

Republican rival Mitt Romney, Obama in 2012 is findingSilicon Valley to be tougher terrain.He lags behind his 2008 campaign in donations from work-

ers at Internet, computer and telecom equipment powerhousessuch as Google, IBM, Hewlett Packard, and Cisco, according toa Reuters analysis of federal disclosures from the Obama presi-dential campaign committee.The Obama campaign has raised $1.44 million through May

from employees of 15 top tech companies, as compared to $1.6million donated by the same companies' staff four years ago.Romney, a former private equity executive, is making

inroads to a key source of cash for Obama, who some tech lead-ers view as anti-business because of uncertainty that they blameon the Dodd-Frank financial regulation reform and the health-care overhaul. Both laws were pushed by the Obama adminis-tration and enacted in 2010.Romney's support for the extension of Bush-era tax cuts for

the rich and his free trade credentials also endear him to someSilicon Valley entrepreneurs, although they worry about himigniting a trade war with China over the value of its currency.

The economy is wreaking havoc on everyone's finances thesedays. Along with predictable living expenses, the burden of unex-pected debts such as medical or family emergencies, and home orcar repair, can prove overwhelming.For anyonewho has experienced credit issues, including a bank-

ruptcy, finding sources of cash can be challenging. A creative fi-nancing solution exists -- borrowing against the equity (value) inany car for which the driver holds the title. This is called a "titleloan", and Santa Barbara-basedACTFinance has recently launcheda division that specializes in this type of loan.In exchange for the title, ACT will give the borrower half the

vehicle's current value in cash. Customers continue driving theircars while repaying the loan. ACT title loans have no prepaymentpenalty and can be paid off at any time. It's a win-win for anyonein need of a short-term loan.For more information about title loans, call ACT Finance at

(805) 434-8008 or visit www.actfinance.net.

Local tech service providerMake It Work closed thedoors on its tech guru-drivenfleet of Mini Coopers todayand learned that in a downeconomy that it doesn’talways work out.Eric Greenspan, founder

and CEO of Make It Work,started the company in 2001and served 40,000 customersin Southern California with34 mobile in-home techni-cians.“It’s gut wrenching,”

Greenspan said. “It’s thehardest thing I’ve had to gothrough in my entire life. Werode it to the very last minuteand finally just put up thewhite flag.”Greenspan will bear the

majority of the companiesdebt.

“I’ll do anything I have todo to get by and make endsmeat for my family and I’llfind my next venture opportu-nity,” Greenspan told theDaily Sound.He hopes for the best for

his employees and has setthem up to continue servingthe customers they workedwith on their own.“Its not so much that I’m

attached to the company, but Iam attached to the employ-ees,” he said.Greenspan, the father of

two, has founded three techventure companies since1995. The first was a prede-cessor to Make It Work thatserved businesses with techsupport and server installa-tion. The second was PushInc., an Application ServiceProvider, an ancestor to thecloud network we knowtoday.He remade Make It Work

with the idea of riding thegrowing tech service industry,but by 2003, their clientelechanged.“We started to get a lot

more calls more from localresidents,” Greenspan said.“We started seeing homeswith more than 3 or 4 com-puters and saw the opportuni-ty.”He saw the opportunity

drop off in 2008 when themarket crashed.“People started watching

their dollar more and we sawa steady decrease in revenuesover the past 5 years,” said

Greenspan.He kept searching for new

opportunities with Make ItWork. His most recent didn’tgo as planned however.Greenspan made a deal to selltech service by the hour atkiosks in Costco but theywould have to raise a greatdeal of money to fund thedeal.“In an ailing economy and

we simply ran out of runwayin our attempt to tackle someamazing business develop-ment opportunities,”Greenspan wrote on the com-pany Facebook page.

foreclosures.“[For the past few years]

The foreclosure rate in SantaBarbara and in the rest of thenation has been at unprece-dented levels,” Holland said.“We’re not seeing at thispoint in time any sort of sub-stantiated trend downwards.”Many protestors feel the

massive increase in foreclo-sures is a dishonest, often ille-gal attempt to take propertyfrom homeowners.The Aequitas Audit, a

recent report published on theSan Francisco foreclosure cri-sis, claims 82 percent of theloans resulting in foreclosureswere marred with “suspiciousactivity” related to dishonestlending practices.According to the Occupy

SB website, Holland’s office— which is responsible forrecording and processinglegal documents like noticesof default or trustee’s deeds— should be taking a strongerstance against banks foreclos-ing on their borrowers dis-honestly.Holland, Holland, said his

office focuses on performingits designated duties and pre-

serving the county’s legalrecords.“I’ve met with a lot of peo-

ple, part of this local move-ment and explained to themthat as the county recorder torecord documents if they haveall the legal requirements thatneeds a legal recording—ifthat happens to be a notice ofdefault or a trustee’s deed Iam required to record thatdocument,” Holland said.“I’m not feeling any pressure,I just do my job. If it’s a legaldocument, we’ll record it.”Margaret Carswell, a mem-

ber of the Occupy SBForeclosures group, said theactions of several majorbanks — including Chase,Bank of America, WellsFargo, and Citi Bank — weredirectly persecuting strug-gling homeowners withoutaccountability from the gov-ernment.“This is an absolute setup,”

Carswell said. “For whateverreason, the state is not stand-ing up to the banks.”According to Carswell, a

homeowner wishing to chal-lenge a non-judicial foreclo-sure is forced to start his orher own lawsuit and isresponsible for the full burdenof proof that the lender hasbeen dishonest, something

many Americans lack theresources to do.Carswell said the Occupy

SB Foreclosures want arespite from the foreclosures,ideally a moratorium like theone then-Attorney GeneralJerry Brown discussed withJ.P Morgan Chase, AllyFinancial and Bank ofAmerica Corporation in 2010.“What we’re calling for is

to stop, to bring a halt to allthe foreclosures,” Carswellsaid. “We want to take abreather, to step back.”

After reading the list ofproperties available for auc-tion, the trustee sale employ-ees left. Carswell said someauctions fail to attract anybuyers, people she and otherprotestors have dubbed “bot-tom feeders.”Another long-time protes-

tor, Jack Reed, said thedemonstration may have dis-couraged many buyers fromappearing.“I would guess they could-

n’t do business today,” Reedsaid.

for muting commercials at thegas pump, the amount itwould cost to update thealready display screens atChevron is unknown. This isone of the reasons why Fellsays that it is not feasible toput a condition on the ownersto offer such an option to theircustomers.“I strongly believe that

there is no nexus between therequest for a Condition UsePermit for a car wash andmini mart that has anything todo for the existing Pumpflixon the gasoline pump,” Fellsaid.But the Planning

Commission not only want togive customers the choice ofmuting the commercials atChevron, they also want tocut down on noise pollutionto homes in nearbyMontecito.Fell disagreed.He said that the screens

don't add to noise pollutionsince the gas station does notshare property lines and islocated right next to the 101Freeway. Chevron has alsoalready lowered the sound ofthe units to meet the require-ments of city regulation.Stephen Wetmore, a Santa

Barbara resident and cus-tomer, doesn’t think that it isa big deal for advertisementsto be played at Chevron.

“It's their advertis-ing,” Wetmore said. “Theycan do whatever they want.There's too much regulation.If you don't like it go pumpsomewhere else.”

BUTTONFROM PAGE 3

The Santa Barbara City Council today will decide whether the display screens at the Chevron on CoastVillage Road should have mute buttons to avoid the advertising.

Supreme Court splits onArizona immigration law(Reuters) The Supreme

Court on Monday upheld themain provision of Arizona'scrackdown on illegal immi-grants but threw out threeother parts, handing partialvictories to President BarackObama in his challenge to thelaw and to the measure's con-servative supporters.In an important test of

whether federal or state gov-ernments have the power toenforce immigration laws, thetop U.S. court unanimouslyupheld the statute's most con-troversial aspect, a require-ment that police officerscheck the immigration statusof people they stop, even for

minor offenses such as jay-walking.But in a split ruling, the

court also struck down otherprovisions of the southwest-ern U.S. state's 2010 law, thefirst of its kind in the country,that the Obama administra-tion had challenged in court.The votes on those provisionswere 5-3 or 6-2, with themore conservative justices indissent.These three provisions

required immigrants to carryimmigration papers at alltimes, banned illegal immi-grants from soliciting work inpublic places, and allowedpolice arrests of immigrants

without warrants if officersbelieved they committedcrimes that would make themdeportable. Critics haveargued that the law could leadto illegal racial or ethnic pro-filing of Hispanics inArizona.Hispanics are the largest U.S.minority group, representing16 percent of the population.Most U.S. illegal immigrantsare Hispanics.In the court's majority

opinion, Justice AnthonyKennedy left open the possi-bility that constitutional orother challenges to the law,including claims it will lead toprofiling, can proceed once ittakes effect.
