Supervisor Don Knabe on Straight Talk
T he Long Beach Ballet will present their classic rendition of The Nutcracker on Saturday, December 17 and Sun-day, December 18 at the Terrace
Theater in downtown Long Beach. There will be four performances, Saturday at 2pm & 7pm, and Sunday
at noon & 4pm.
With the Long Beach Ballet celebrat-ing its 29th Anniversary, this Holi-day Classic boasts a full symphony orchestra, a flying sleigh, a live
horse, on stage pyrotechnics and a
cast of over 200.
The enchanting scenery was created by former Disney designers Elliot Hessayon and Scott Schaf-fer, the detailed costumes designed by Australian artist Adrian
Clark, and the special effects created by renowned magician
Franz Harary.
This year, the production surpasses all expectations by incorporating the
South Coast Children's Chorale under the direction of Emily Dyer. For the first time in 15 years, South-ern California will once again see and hear The Nutcracker exactly as Tchaikovsky wrote it, with angelic young voices blending harmoniously
with a full symphony orchestra.
The Long Beach Ballet's Nutcracker has been seen by millions of people
worldwide, including live audiences
Don Knabe
LA County Supervisor, Fourth District
Los Angeles County Supervisor Don Knabe again joins us to provide an update on the State of the County. Among the topics covered in the discussion
with host Art Levine are the County budget situation, the redis-tricting battle in connection with redrawing the supervisorial districts (Don’s Fourth District remained basically intact), and
the challenges caused by re-alignment and the release of state prisoners to the various counties. Supervisor Knabe also discusses the problem in the County jails, which resulted in the establishment by the Board of Su-pervisors of the Citizen’s Commission on Jail Violence to in-vestigate the situation. Don nominated Long Beach Chief of
Police Jim McDonnell to be his appointee on the Commission, which will investigate the use of force by Sheriff deputies in the County jail system.
In the final segment, Don trades seats with Art and becomes the host of Straight Talk as part of the 20th Anniversary Year celebration. He interviews “guest” Art Levine about his profes-
sional and personal life and gets some fascinating answers.
Supervisor Knabe will be our guest on the Straight Talk Show airing the weeks of December 10 & December 17.

Gratitude
longbeachcomber.com
In this season of Thanksgiving, it is appropriate to focus on gratitude, and the many things we have for which to be thankful.
The Thanksgiving holiday is my personal favor-ite, as we gather with friends and family and rejoice at the sense of togetherness and count our many blessings. But I have found that the attitude of gratitude is so powerful that it really should be embraced throughout the year. I be-lieve that those who have a deep sense of grati-
tude lead much happier lives than those who don’t. Happiness has nothing to do with money, fame or power. A person of modest means can be very happy and content if he or she is grateful for his or her blessings, and is not envious of
those who have more. And many of us know people of considerable wealth and fame who are not happy and at peace with themselves, in fact some are quite miserable. I would suggest that the difference is really one of attitude. If you are grateful for whatever you
have, however much or little, you are likely to be happy. And if you don’t have the attitude of gratitude, then no amount of money, fame or power will create contentment. One of my favorite aphorisms is, “Before you bemoan the things you don’t have that you want,
think of all the things that you don’t want that you don’t have.”
Let’s consider some of the things for which we all can be grateful:
We live in America, a great country which, for all of its imperfections, is still “the great-est hope for mankind’
We live in California, a beautiful state
which despite its political dysfunction, has great climate, topography, a magnificent ocean, and is a center of creativity
We live in Long Beach, a special city with a big heart, that has a community that really cares about one another, is host to a great
university and has first rate medical facili-ties. Long Beach has been aptly called “the biggest smallest town in America.”
On a more personal note, as Straight Talk cele-brates its 20th Anniversary Year on air, I am most grateful for the continued support of our
sponsors, guests and most importantly you, our viewers.
Happy Thanksgiving!

CSU Chancellor on Straight Talk Charles Reed
Chancellor, CSU System
CSU Chancellor Charles Reed joins us to discuss the challenges facing higher educa-tion. As the head for the past 13 years of the CSU system, the largest higher educa-tion system in America, Chancellor Reed is
in a unique position to address the issue. In the course of the interview, the Chancellor discusses the
budget and the problems caused by continuing decreases in state support. Also, the tuition increases and the problem of decreasing access to the system. Reed also comments on the widely publicized and criticized $100,000 increase in salary given to the incoming president of San Diego State. He notes the vital importance of good
leadership, particularly in these challenging times. Other topics covered in the discussion included federal fi-nancing and Pell grants, and the misallocation of those grants between private and public institutions. The Chancellor also describes the new Online Learning Initiative, and suggests it may be one of the solutions to increasing access to the sys-
tem, particularly among adults.
Despite the many challenges, the Chancellor is positive about careers in higher education. As he stated in his Chancellor’s Letter of September 29, 2011, “It’s a place where your work
helps students realize their dreams.”
California State University System
The Chancellor of the California State University is the chief executive officer of the country’s largest senior system of public higher education. He provides leadership to 46,000 faculty and staff and 450,000 students on 23 campuses and
seven off-campus centers. The CSU, which spans the entire state of California, has an annual budget of more than $5 bil-lion. The California State University currently offers approximate-ly 1,233 bachelor’s degree programs, 783 master’s programs, and 29 joint doctoral programs in 319 areas. CSU prepares
the majority of the state’s new public school teachers and 10 percent of the nation’s K-12 instructors. Each year, nearly as many people graduate with bachelor’s degrees from the CSU as from all other universities and colleges in the state combined.

Juan Williams
Fox News Political Analyst
Fox News political analyst Juan Williams vis-ited the campus of California State University, Long Beach to be the Keynote Speaker for the Fifth Annual CSULB Distinguished Speak-
er Series on Thursday, October 20, 2011 at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center. In his Keynote Address entitled Muzzled: Political Debate in
America, Mr. Williams spoke on the subject of censorship in the media. He described in compelling detail the events lead-ing up to his dismissal by National Public Radio (NPR), his immediate reaction to the firing, and the gradual outpouring of public support he received in the weeks that followed. The events are chronicled in his recent book, Muzzled: The As-sault on Honest Debate which reached the New York Times
best-seller list. Mr. Williams also spoke at the sold out Sponsor Dinner pre-ceding his keynote address and participated in the Sponsor Reception. Among those present were Long Beach Mayor Bob Foster and CSULB President F. King Alexander.
The Distinguished Speaker Series is made possible through the generous support of sponsors, listed in a thank you ad
elsewhere in this publication. A special note of thanks to the Series Underwriter, The Christian Family Foundation/ Blake and Vicki Christian and to the Title Sponsor, Edison
International.
Biography
Juan Williams is one of America’s leading political writers and thinkers. He is currently a political analyst with Fox News. Previously, he reported for NPR as a senior corre-spondent and the host of “Talk of the Nation,” but was dis-
missed after commenting that Muslims in traditional dress boarding planes made him nervous. In the wake of the news organization’s controversial decision, Williams wrote Muzzled: The Assault on Honest Debate, discussing “the countless ways in which honest debate in America...is sti-fled.” The book has become a New York Times best-seller.
Prior to his stint at NPR, Williams was an award-winning writer and columnist for more than 20 years at The Washing-ton Post. As a top Washington journalist, he dared to examine American politics, civil rights, media, law and culture with uncompromising integrity and insight.

BSBA Christmas Parade
Watch Anytime: www.StraightTalkTV.com Page 7
T he 29th Annual Belmont Shore Christmas Parade comes
to town on Saturday, December 3, 2011 at 6pm (note earlier start time). A celebrated holiday tradition, the parade
features approximately 75 entries including marching bands, local personalities and dignitaries, floats representing Long Beach businesses and associations. Lead-ing the parade is Grand Marshall Gene Rotondo, President of the Belmont Shore Business Associa-tion (BSBA) for the past 13 years.
Bringing the parade to a close is the perennial favorite, Santa Claus. The theme of this year’s parade is It’s a GREEN Christmas - Recy-
cle, Reuse, Renew! Entries are encouraged to embrace the theme
through the decoration of their floats and costumes. With an estimated 50,000 people lining the fifteen block stretch of Second Street for the parade, it should come as no surprise the amount of effort and prepara-tion that goes into closing the street to the approximated
40,000 vehicles that travel it daily. Visit the website for specif-ic street closures and closure times, starting at 2pm.
No property of any kind (such as chairs, blankets, tables, cool-ers or tape) is permitted on the sidewalk or the center median until 5pm. All such items will be removed and taken to the
Bayshore Library for pick-up after the event. Most important-ly, areas may not be “roped off”. The City of Long Beach has made this request for the purpose of pro-tecting public safety and allowing pedestrian access along the side-walk.
No alcohol on the streets and no underage drinking is permitted. These restrictions will be enforced by the LBPD. The parade is made possible by the generous support of its Sponsors.
The BSBA would like to acknowledge and thank the Asso-ciate Parade Sponsors: Port of Long Beach, Charter Communi-
cations, Farmers & Merchants Bank, Press-Telegram, Ma-chan Signs, UPS and Run Racing.
For more information and sponsorship opportunities for the parade, visit www.BelmontShore.org or call the BSBA at (562) 434-3066.

C ensorship in America is always a difficult problem. On the one hand, we love our country and want to keep it safe. We don't like it when people say things that might en-
courage our enemies and demoralize our troops fighting in foreign lands. Furthermore, we accept the fact that it is neces-sary to censor and/or punish certain communications. Treason is punishable by death, and “fighting words,” like yelling fire in a crowded theater, are grounds for prosecution. Defamation is saying something untrue that harms a person’s reputation, and opens you up to a civil law suit. More contro-
versial is the censorship of obscene material, which is diffi-cult to define and harder to show to be harmful. The Su-preme Court has established a heavy burden of proof to demonstrate that material is obscene. It must 1) be without any redeeming literary or social value, 2) offend community standards, and 3) appeal to prurient (sexual) interests. A law written to prohibit obscenity must be very specific and de-
scribe in detail what is not to be depicted. On the other hand, the government, whether state or federal, has at times imposed censorship in an arbitrary and danger-ous way. During World War I, President Wilson created a committee to censor motion pictures that criticized the war effort. That committee in various iterations lasted into the
1950’s, and only ceased to exist when Hollywood introduced self censorship though its own motion picture code. In 1948 when President Truman required a loyalty oath of all federal employees, the state governments followed suit. Pro-
fessors and teachers in California and across the nation were fired if they did not take the oath. Other professors were fired when they exercised their First and/or Fifth Amendment
rights and refused to give up friends before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). People who worked in Hollywood, particularly screenwriters, found themselves on blacklists if they failed to cooperate with the Committee. Dashiel Hammett, the author of "The Maltese Falcon" and who served in World War II, was incar-cerated in federal prison for raising funds for the "Hollywood
Ten," who had argued before HUAC that the First Amend-ment protected them. Dalton Trumbo, who would provide the script for "Spartacus" in 1960, was forced into exile in Mexi-co in 1949. While working on the set of his movie "High Noon," Carl Foreman was fired and fled to England, never to return, though he provided scripts for "Born Free" and "Bridge on the River Kwai." How many others fled the coun-
try is difficult to estimate, but the impact on the arts in Amer-ica was significant. Despite the fact that this nation was founded by people who advocated the violent overthrow of British rule in the colo-nies, in 1940 it was made illegal in America to advocate the overthrow of the government. The law was not struck down
until 1957, but not before many people had been incarcerated for simply belonging to an organization that advocated the overthrow of the government. (Continued on next page)

During the McCarthy era, libraries came under attack for car-
rying books on Marx, Lenin, or even Russian history. After McCarthy's chief henchman Roy Cohn traveled to Europe to visit State Department libraries, books were pulled from the shelves and burned. Even today, under one provision of the US Patriot Act, librar-ians must turn over records of library users to the FBI without letting the users know. And to return to the issue of indecen-
cy, every year or so groups seek to censor material by conflat-ing violence with indecency. In the 1980’s, Senator Paul Si-mon sought to curtail violent cartoons. Today various advocates seek to prevent the sale of computer games containing violence. But unless a measurable harm can be shown, such censorship is unconstitutional. It also runs the
risk of slipping into other forms of entertainment. In “Hamlet" there is a suicide, a couple of stabbings, and some poisonings. In "King Lear" some eyes are gouged out. We need to be careful in our own time to see that the government does not become the parent. Whether looking at the past or the present, we see that censor
ship is always with us. Even on our college campuses, where
the pursuit of academic freedom is encouraged, we face the threat of censorship for being politically incorrect, whatever that means. And so the battles go on, created by the tension between those who want to protect national security at all costs and those who seek freedom of expression without lim-it; between those who would allow aggressive debate on the way to the truth, and those who would prefer to have civil conversation where no feelings get hurt.
I find the situation to be more complicated than those two extremes. Thus I'm often caught in between these groups in trying to arbitrate a solution that will both protect our free-doms but also provide for a secure America. It’s not easy, but I don't think the founders meant it to be.
Censorship (continued from page 12)
Professor Smith is the Director of the Center for First Amendment Studies at California State University, Long Beach. He is also a participant in the B-word Project, an 18-month
three semester campus wide program focusing on censorship. For more information, visit www.bwordproject.org.
