Children’s Museum celebrates 3rd anniversary

By Ellen Wright

ESCONDIDO — The San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum celebrated its third anniversary in its new location on North Broadway Wednesday night.

The museum is full of tactile and interactive exhibits that change every two months to teach children about environmental sciences and world cultures, said Kristen Hawkes Operations and Store Manager.

She said that all the worldwide communities that are represented at the museum are present locally.

Some countries they’ve showcased are Russia, Japan and the Philippines.

“It’s showing differences amongst people worldwide and locally,” Hawkes said.

Currently the focus is on Ireland.

Often dancers and people from the community will come perform to highlight their cultural heritage, Hawkes said.

The museum has exhibits for all ages. Tammy Anglea said she brings her 18-month-old daughter Aubriana in at least once a week.

She said the developmental exhibits are great for learning and the museum was a cool haven during the summer.

“It’s great because she gets to interact with a lot of other children.

They learn about taking turns,” said Anglea.

Operations manager Hawkes said she’s even seen a girl take her first steps using the toy-shopping cart in the Kids Global Village.

The engaging and interactive exhibits promote children exploration and teach them about environmental sciences, along with cultural diversity.

Not a single screen can be found throughout the museum.

The museum also heavily promotes accessibility by providing field trip scholarships for low-income schools, free memberships for underserved families and financial assistance for military and veteran families.

The museum is able to provide such accessibility with support from the community. Board members hope to raise $3.5 million.

City Council remains; Lakes Specific Plan fails

By Ellen Wright

ESCONDIDO— While mail-in ballots are still being counted, Mayor Sam Abed won his second term in a landslide.

Republican Abed won 60 percent of the precinct votes, compared to Democratic Deputy Mayor Olga Diaz’ 33 percent. Diaz will keep her seat on City Council since it was not up for re-election this term.

Stephen Siaw, last minute surprise candidate had about 5.5 percent of the votes. He is currently a student and billed himself as the average guy during his campaign.

Real-life ‘Rosie the Riveter’ has riveting tale to tell

By Pete Peterson

Special to The Coast News SAN MARCOS — History has been defined as an account of people’s actions. In 1942, there was much action to be recorded. America was at war in North Africa and the South Pacific. Our troops desperately needed supplies and equipment. American women responded in droves, trading household chores for the assembly line, and forever changing the labor force. Some authorities credit this phenomenon as the beginning of the feminist movement. Others say it was the direct result of effective government propaganda, which ended when the men marched home.

However, everyone agrees that these workers produced vital war supplies — battle ships, air planes, tanks, Jeeps, guns, rifle parts, bombs and other munitions — in such staggering numbers that our fighting forces were the best-equipped military in the history of warfare. Popularized in song and in print, as “Rosie the Riveter,” President Franklin D.

and commitment of the hardy American women is our ace in the hole in our fight against the forces of evil.”

A real-life Rosie lives in Lake San Marcos, today. She is Amy Jo Burnett. Soon to be 92, Amy is as feisty and fully engaged now, as she

was in 1942 when she assembled P-38 fighter planes for Lockheed Aircraft in Burbank, Calif.

The thought that she was a feminist never crossed Amy’s mind. She was more interested in the 35 cents an hour she could earn. “That’s practically $3 a day,” her Uncle Claude said, when he told her about the job.

“Smart as you are, you’d be great at polishing rivets or working on airplane main frames.”

Amy remembers the hiring procedure at Lockheed as being easy.

She filled out a one page form and returned the next day ready to work.

With dress shoes selling for $2.50, dresses at $3.99, hamburgers a quarter and movie tickets a dime, Amy could do a lot with the $12.43 she pocketed every week. After she paid her rent, bought food and other necessities, she’d send two bucks home to Mom and Dad back in San Carlos.

Lake Hodges agreement approved

By Christina Macone-Greene

REGION — During an Oct. 29 meeting, the Santa Fe Irrigation District’s Board both amended and approved an agreement with the San Dieguito Water District and city of San Diego.

The agreement underscored how the Santa Fe Irrigation District and San Dieguito Water District would have future “rights” to Lake Hodges’ water supply.

This agreement had made a couple of rounds before arriving to the San Fe Irrigation District. The agreement was first approved by the San Diego City Council in September, and once again, by the San Dieguito Water District Board of Directors on Oct. 15.

Representatives from the Santa Fe Irrigation District explained that the three water agencies will now have access to this local water supply, while sharing any financial costs.

They also pointed out that Lake Hodges is considered a regional aqueduct system and serves as an important role in the San Diego County Water Authority’s Emergency Storage Project.

“This is a real good benefit to all of our customers,” said Jessica Parks,

I want our customers to understand that this agreement is actually beneficial to all of us.”

Jessica Parks Santa Fe Irrigation District Public Information Officer

Santa Fe Irrigation District public information officer.

“The San Diego County Water Authority Emergency Storage Project is this pipeline from Lake Hodges up to the Olivenhain Reservoir. “That is actually a power supply because they pump water up and then run it down at night generating power from a power generator that they have so this adds power to the region and its energy for our customers.”

Parks went on to say that now that the city of San Diego has direct connection to Lake Hodges, this is good for the region, because now they can draw and store their water there.

The most promising thing about this amendment, Parks said, is that

it preserves the District’s rights and also defines the local water split.

The Santa Fe Irrigation District Board President Michael T. Hogan, stated, “The updated agreement recognizes and balances the complex needs of multiple stakeholders, including regional interests, while ensuring sound management of a valuable water supply for generations to come.”

The signing of this agreement by the Santa Fe Irrigation District was the last step, and once put into place, the agreement is effective immediately.

“I want our customers to understand that this agreement is actually beneficial to all of us because having local rights to Lake Hodges water gives us a local water supply,” she said.

Parks continued, “This is a beneficial source because this water is here, and it costs less for us to be able to treat local water than to import expensive water.”

Parks also pointed out that the District is happy they were able to collaborate with the City of San Diego, the San Diego County Water Authority and the San Dieguito Water District.

It wasn’t an easy task, Parks said, but they are delighted it is completed now.

History made, one upset in school board races

By Aaron Burgin

REGION — History was made and an upset of sorts occurred in the elections of two of the region’s largest school districts.

San Marcos Unified School District voters elected the board’s first Hispanic representative when they elected Stacy Carlson to the board. She and Pam Lindamood won the two seats that were up for grabs, besting Jean Diaz in the process.

Carlson, who runs a science grant-writing firm, finished with 34.65 percent of the votes cast.

She said for a district that is 46 percent Hispanic or Latino students, the historical significance is profound.

“It is important for the Latino students and families to look at their leadership and see themselves represented,” Carlson said.

“In those terms, it is thrilling to have won and made history in the process.”

ready been raised.

Board members hope to buy the building they occupy by next year. According to Susanne Stanford, campaign chair, The Linden Root Dickinson Foundation bought the building in a down market and it’s now worth more than $2 million.

As a gift, the foundation has given the museum the option to buy the building for $650,000, said Stanford.

Visitors to the museum over the past three years have increased by four fold, according to Executive Director Javier Guerrero.

“In three years time, not only did we grow into a new space starting from zero, but we went from 15,000 to nearly 60,000 visitors a year,” Guerrero said.

the votes.

An incumbent was toppled in the San Dieguito Union High School District race, as voters elected Maureen “Mo” Muir to the board along with two incumbents, John Salazar and Amy Herman, while incumbent Barbara Switzer Groth finished in fourth place in the race for three seats.

Muir, a current member of the Encinitas Union School District board and wife of Encinitas City Councilman Mark Muir, expressed gratitude to the voters. She finished as the highest vote getter, garnering 18.23 percent of the votes cast in the 7-person field.

“I am so happy that people came out and were so gracious to help me out and support me,” Muir said.

Everything in the building is hand made by staff and Rebecca Raymond, honorary campaign co-chair, said the staff’s passion and vision is a large part of why she got involved.

“The vision is always

ly sound and making sure our kids are able to reach their fullest potential.”

Muir said that she believes it was her campaign’s personal touch that allowed her to connect to voters. She said she spent countless hours speaking to voters during house-tohouse precinct walks.

“A lot of parents were surprised just that I was there, and on Tuesday many of them told me they voted to me because I came to their house to find out their opinion,” Muir said.

Muir’s campaign message was to ensure that every district dollar possible is being prioritized into the classrooms, to keep a watchful eye over the district’s ongoing Proposition AA building campaign and also to ensure the district was proactively listening to the community, as opposed to reacting to protest.

Calls to Groth were not returned at the time of publication.

“They have this beauti- both children and adults ful idea of what they want and annual memberships the programs to entail and cost $85. what they want to impart in the community and the exhibits have popped up and their dreams have been realized. It’s fantastic!”

VISTA — Vista Mayor Judy Ritter, and Councilman John Aguilera held their seats, according to preliminary election results.

Councilman Dave Cowles’ win is still too close to call.

Ritter began the race with a strong 65.31 percent of votes, when initial results were posted at 8 p.m. Tuesday night.

She maintained a near 30 percent lead over her opponent Councilman Cody Campbell, who ran from a safe seat and will continue to serve two more years as councilman.

Preliminary results Wednesday morning show Rita as the winner with 62.43 percent of votes.

Aguilera garnered the most votes in the City Council two-seat race. He consistently stayed ahead of fellow candidates by four percent or more.

Wednesday’s preliminary results show Aguilera in the lead with 27.11 percent of votes.

Aguilera said he thanks voters for their confidence in him, the city, and the progress the city has made in creating a vibrant, walkable down-

town.

“My hope for the city is that we continue the progress we’ve made in the downtown area, and all open spaces are filled with profitable businesses,” Aguilera said.

He said his future focus is to maintain the city’s aging sewer infrastructure. He would also like to add more city ball fields and parks as funds become available.

Cowles seems to have held his seat with 21.70 percent of votes, but the race is too close to call with less than half a percent margin between him and challenger John Franklin who finished the race with a preliminary vote of 21.59 percent.

Cowles said he would like to keep the city moving forward with planed housing projects, downtown retail expansion, additional jobs, and increased safety.

“I am anxious to continue the progress that’s underway in Vista,” Cowles said.

Challenger Chrystal Coleman followed fellow candidates with 16.84 percent of votes. Erubey Lopez trailed with 12.77 percent of votes.

Voters reject marijuana store fronts

Logjam ends, replacing Boxer could be first race of new era California Focus

By Thomas D. Elias This year’s election is over, and the main Tuesday result in California was not the least bit surprising: Four more years of Gov. Jerry Brown working with a Democratic-dominated Legislature.

But the next election season began the moment this year’s ended, and every indication is that the long logjam that has frustrated ambitious Democrats for most of the last two decades will now break up.

For Brown, about to start his fourth term as governor, cannot run again for that office and is highly unlikely to try for any other. Four years from now, he will be 80. He tried for president and failed while in his 30s and 40s, and no one over 69 has ever been elected for the first time as the nation’s leader. So as healthy and vigorous as Brown appears, he’ll be finished when he’s termed out in four years.

At the same time, Democratic U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer may not seek a new six-year term. A fourtermer, Boxer has been considered one of the most vulnerable senators before each of her last three runs.

But Boxer always won, in part due to her hard work.

Her last run, in 2010, was typical. She held coffees in living rooms from Chico and Eureka to the suburbs of San Diego and many points east and in between. “It’s always hard for me,” she said in an interview while running. “Every six years, there are millions of new voters and I am constantly having to re-introduce myself to them.”

At 75 when her current term ends two years from now, the onetime Marin County supervisor may simply retire to her current home in the desert resort town of Rancho Mirage. Six

years ago, as she readied her run, Boxer’s campaign kitty held $3.6 million. By contrast, a month ago it stood at just $200,000.

Already 81 and now the oldest member of the Senate, Boxer’s longtime colleague Dianne Feinstein will be 85 when her current term ends in 2018.

Vigorous as she is, will she want a new six-year commitment to continual redeye cross-country airline flights? Especially since the Republican takeover of the Senate will move her out of her chairmanship of the Intelligence Committee, will she find it worth the trouble to run? The regretful guess here is no.

Add this to the depar-

and causes, become the next big-bucks, self-funded candidate? Will current Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti try for a top statewide office? How about his predecessor, the limitlessly ambitious Antonio Villaraigosa?

And there could be Michelle Obama. She and her presidential husband reportedly bought a house in Rancho Mirage earlier this year, not far from Boxer.

So despite current denials, First Lady Michelle, like Hillary Clinton before her, might try picking off a Senate seat from a state where she never previously lived.

Of course, this sort of thing hasn’t worked well for past newcomers to California.

The upshot is that California is in for an interesting four years of politicking, with the old guard that has dominated state affairs for more than 20 years about to give way to younger people. tures in this year’s election of California congressional kingpins like George Miller, Henry Waxman and Buck McKeon and it’s clear California is developing an entirely new political elite.

Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, the former San Francisco mayor, and state Atty.

Gen. Kamala Harris, previously the San Francisco district attorney, both plainly aspire to lead, although it’s unclear whether either will go after Boxer’s seat in 2016 if she opts out, or wait until 2018, when two top-of-ticket jobs could be open.

They are not alone.

Proven office-holders like John Chiang, the current state controller and newly-elected treasurer, may want higher office. Could billionaire investor Tom Steyer, long a large contributor to liberal candidates

On the Republican side, the persistent and spirited showing of this fall’s gubernatorial candidate Neel Kashkari makes him an intriguing figure.

And San Diego County Congressman Darrell Issa has long lusted after a Senate seat, while Fresno Mayor Ashley Swearengin’s strong campaign for state controller could give her a future.

The upshot is that California is in for an interesting four years of politicking, with the old guard that has dominated state affairs for more than 20 years about to give way to younger people. Only time will tell whether that’s good or bad for most Californians.

Ballot initiatives to allow marijuana dispensaries in Encinitas and La Mesa are soundly defeated by voters.

In the city of La Mesa Proposition J would have repealed the city’s prohibition on the public sale of marijuana, and retail sale in the city. Proposition F in the city of Encinitas would have amended the Encinitas municipal code to authorize store front marijuana dispensaries in the small beach side city.

Similar measures were defeated in the cities of Del Mar, Solana Beach, Lemon Grove and Imperial Beach in 2012.

Opponents of the measures say this sends a clear message that residents do not want pot shops in their cities.

“Every time San Diego County voters have been given the opportunity to vote on allowing pot shops in their communities they have soundly rejected the proposals.

“The voters know pot shops are not serving the seriously ill, they are drug dealers providing drugs for recreational use,” says San Diegans for Safe Neighborhoods chair, Scott Chipman.

“Measure F and the other marijuana storefront initiatives were never about the compassionate use of marijuana for seriously ill patients,” says Encinitas resident Nancy Logan. “They are about profiteering. State law already allows for the closed network exchange of marijuana between a patient and caregiver. It does not allow for the retail sale of marijuana from a storefront.

“These pot profiteers spent a great deal of money in Encinitas and then stole 40 ‘No on Measure F’ signs from private yards.”

Marijuana dealer/ profiteers and drug legalizers are targeting our small cities to make money now and establish “big marijuana” markets in hopes the drug will be legalized in California in 2016.

“The defeat of measure J validates community perceptions that pot shops have no place in La Mesa. We are not willing to sacrifice the public health and safety of our children and economic development in our community to make marijuana more easily available in La Mesa,” said Dani Womack. “Store front marijuana sales send the wrong message to our

children, bring crime to our neighborhoods and cost cities both financially and socially.”

Womack is one of several community members who signed the ballot arguments against Measure J. She is the Community Pastor at Crosspointe Life Church and Coordinator of the La Mesa Collaborative.

Marijuana storefronts have been magnets for crime.

Cities with pot shops incur substantial public safety costs and police and sheriff’s offices are not adequately prepared to effectively monitor and regulate them.

And, while drug dealers and elected officials have been in conversations over how or how not to regulate illegal drug sales, teen use in San Diego has skyrocketed with use by 11th graders up 70 percent.

San Diegans for Safe Neighborhoods calls on San Diego County Supervisors to rescind their ineffective ordinance and for the San Diego City Council to abandon attempts to regulate this lawless industry.

Scott Chipman is chair of the San Diegans for Safe Neighborhoods.

Letters to the Editor Another slant on desalination water Have you heard the radio ad about the “Bubba Plumber,” who won’t give you a price estimate, before they begin the work?

Well, we have “Bubba Cities” locally, that have committed yours and my future water bills to the desalination project, without sharing what the estimated cost will be to our water bills.

Is the omission for publishing the cost to the ratepayers, a simple oversight, or do the officials actually not want us to know, before the “hammer comes down”?

I asked a public servant in an email recently, why no consumer prices are out there?

Answer: Because of

the many variables, the price of water to the consumer has not been determined yet.

Poppycock!

Any engineer or bean counter can run some hypothetical numbers, using a slew of models, both real and virtual.

Something else: The PUC can’t override any of the actions taken by the cities or the San Diego County Water Authority, because those public water entities have publicly-elected boards (well sort of).

The public agencies, that have so magnanimously contracted for buying desalination water, have also committed our pocketbooks to very substantial and abrupt rate increases (in the near future), without having specific public

hearings on the subject.

So, like a dumb bomb that has already been dropped, our water fate has been set. Next year, or the year after, get ready for the “Big Ouch.”

Who’s

Odd Files

By Chuck Shepherd Baby Beauty Amanda Collins, 28, took “beauty pageant mom” to the next level (down) earlier this year when she entered her daughter Luna in Britain’s UK Princess and Prince International — based entirely on Luna’s ultrasound scan at age 20 weeks. Said Collins, “As soon as I saw her image on the screen ... I knew she was a stunner.” Contest officials had accepted the scan application, and six weeks after birth, Luna was named runner-up in the Princess and Prince, and on top of that, four weeks later, runner-up in Miss Dreams UK. “All she has to do,” said Collins, “is lie in my arms and smile as I stroll down the catwalk.”

Recurring Themes In September, at the annual 10-day Phuket Vegetarian Festival in Thailand (ostensibly promoting abstinence from eating meat), dozens of men pierced and sliced their mouths, cheeks and arms in religious devotion in a spectacle which, though blood-drenched, was supposedly free of pain (and subsequent scars) because the fanatics were in God-imposed trances. The display supposedly brings “good health, peace of mind and spiritual cleansing,” and includes walking on hot coals and climbing blade-embedded ladders (both barefoot, of course), all to the accompaniment of fireworks and the ear-shattering pounding of drums. [Huffington Post UK, 9-29-2014] Brad Culpepper played defensive tackle for nine NFL seasons and, not surprisingly, applied for disability when he retired, since his medical folder listed 14 MRIs, head and knee trauma and neurological and vision problems — which resulted in doctors declaring him “89 percent” disabled and the Fairmont Premier insurance company giving him a $175,000 settlement. Fairmont sued recently to get its money back, claiming that Culpepper is, and was, “exquisitely fit,” as evidenced by a September 2013 Tampa Bay Times feature on his gym workouts, and in his having earned a martial-arts Black Belt, and in his participation for 14 days in the grueling TV series “Survivor: Blood vs.

Water” in 2013.

Angry taxpayers and retail customers sometimes protest their debt by paying the bill with containers of coins (especially pennies), but what if a company did that to a customer? A court had ruled that Adriana’s Insurance Services in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., had unjustifiably ejected (and assaulted) 74-year-old Andres Carrasco from its office when he complained about a canceled policy, and ordered Adriana’s to pay him about $21,000. Consequently, in August, the still-irritated company dropped off at least 16 buckets full of coins at the customer’s lawyer’s office.

Taking care of dog, brings back memories

14) expires 11/21/ (with coupon, s m ite le sa es Exclud r any other offe Not valid with

small talk jean gillette I have been known to moan and sigh over my children being grown up and gone. I frequently think longingly of bygone days when they were little and the fun we had. It’s a classic case of selective memory.

But it appears I have

LUXURY LIVING FOR LESS IN TEMECULA!

Smile...You’re Home!

“I really love my Van Daele home.

This is where life, my family’s life happens...everyday!

Van Daele Homeowner, Verona

stumbled over a cure. I’m dog sitting. Suddenly, I am not alone. I have been abruptly thrown back to the days of raising toddlers. Unlike my very capable husband, this roommate can’t fix her own dinner, can’t leave the house without an escort and would really, really like to spend her day in my lap.

If I am eating something, she wants some. If I am moving, she wants to romp. If I sit still, she becomes a warm, fuzzy attachment that makes me feel guilty when I have to detach her and get up. I am shadowed wherever I go. If I pause, she is quite content to sit and gaze at me longingly. Much like my children, she’s also pretty cute, which makes it all that much tougher to ignore her pleas. Sad, puppy eyes have a lot in common with sad, toddler eyes. Both are famous for melting your resolve.

These days, I tend to make several spontaneous stops on my way home from work. I’ve also been known to stop and yak, if I run into a friend. Mid-errand, mid-conversation or as I admire that pair of shoes, I now suddenly feel like I left the baby parked by the curb. It’s still startling to remember someone is impatiently waiting for my arrival at home. This someone very probably needs, and absolutely wants a little trip outside and some food.

It’s also a bit embarrassing to be so sharply reminded that I have become just a tad spoiled and self-indulgent, since my chicks left the nest.

I will admit, though, this particular pup is far tidier than my kids used to be. She eats all her dinner without coaxing and she never argues about bedtime or television. Unlike my adorable children, she never has to be driven to a play date or school and she can be left for a while without a babysitter. And to my great delight, unlike previous dogs I have owned, she is too short to leap up and snag the cookies, the chicken salad or the burritos off the counter. In fact, she’s about the sweetest dog I have ever met, which makes the new drill pretty painless.

We are adjusting to one another, this fluffy new boarder of mine. She is getting accustomed to hanging out in my backyard. I am slowly getting better at remembering I have something to do besides stumble to the bathroom sink, when I rise in the morning.

And I will even admit that being greeted with such unrelenting enthusiasm can be rather pleasant and possibly addicting. Excuse me, but someone seems to want her hair brushed. And she won’t shriek if I hit a tangle.

Bolts say hello to bye, headed for unpredictable stretch run sports talk jay paris The jockeying for postseason spots is heating up among prep football teams.

And are ponies really running again at the Del Mar? Some things don’t make sense locally and if you’re going to bring up the Chargers, here we go.

Like a pile-up one can’t peak away from, the Chargers remain a topic on their bye week.

Coach Mike McCoy wants to veer everyone’s attention to playing Oakland and can you blame him after the Miami Meltdown?

Absorb a haymaker like the listless Bolts did on Sunday against the Dolphins and suddenly everything is askew.

The Chargers (5-4) put their feet up, but it’s on an ottoman with a three-game losing streak.

Their jolt from the gate that included a five-game winning streak has vanished. What began as “oh my” became “on no” and which way the season turns is debatable.

What was clear in getting blanked and embarrassed by the Dolphins was the Chargers’ lack of wantto.

The question is have they hit “RB” and we’re not talking about Rancho Bernardo.

Rock bottom can be a bummer, but once the backside makes contact, there can be a rebound.

The Chargers could be in line for that and here’s the positive spin.

When the Chargers welcome Oakland on Nov. 16 — that just doesn’t sound right — they’ll likely look different. The ailing will have benefited from the down time and could be good to go.

Hello, running back Ryan Mathews? What’s up linebackers Manti Te’o, Melvin Ingram and Jerry Attaochu?

Cornerback Jason Verrett probably won’t be available, his balky shoulders being just that.

But the Chargers could hoist a bugle and just maybe the cavalry gallops over the Mission Valley vista.

Mathews is the key, his knee willing.

Among the reasons the Chargers are in this muck is their ground game.

A running attack is something for other teams as the Chargers consistently have

trouble collecting yards the old-fashion way.

That plops quarterback Philip Rivers in damning dilemmas and the results are predictable.

Mathews, though, can’t run-block, which might cloud his contributions.

Te’o’s feet have been his Achilles’ heel. Maybe they find cleats again and he returns to assist a leaky run defense.

Te’o’s biggest feat could be helping fellow inside linebacker Donald Butler from his rut. Butler, once a Pro Bowl type player, has morphed into a shoddy tackler taking shaky angles.

Ingram’s return from his hip woes isn’t a given.

His absence is among the reasons the pass rush disappeared Veteran linebacker Dwight Freeney gets close to quarterbacks, but that only counts in drive-in movies — kids, ask your parents.

Freeney hasn’t had a sack in nearly two months.

So the secondary sings the blues and even Mr. Sunshine, Eric Weddle, is clearing his throat.

He eyes others pulling the rope and questions their fortitude.

“If they don’t respond they won’t be on the field with me,’’ Weddle said.

The bearded one isn’t the general manager just yet so we’ll let Tom Telesco pull rabbits from the hat.

But there’s no eBay site to click for help on both sides of the ball.

The Chargers won’t be getting assistance from their schedule. After facing the Raiders and Rams — teams, just like San Diego, once calling Los Angeles home — it’s no angels flight.

Games with the Ravens, Patriots, Broncos, 49ers and Chiefs await, which again underscores why Miami was so important.

Lose like the Chargers did there in a shocking fashion and the safety net disappears.

So enjoy the week off fellas.

We’ll track Oceanside, Mission Hills, San Marcos and Rancho Bernardo’s quest to stay in the top 10.

And maybe investigate the Del Mar horses at the top of the turn.

Hopefully McCoy earns his hay, devising ways to get the reeling Chargers ready for their stretch run.

Cross-town rivals to meet in Beach Bowl CARLSBAD — The final regular season week of high school football games in San Diego County is, traditionally, “rivals week,” and there is no healthier rivalry than between Torrey Pines and La Costa Canyon.

Not only is it an important Avocado-West League game, but the Nov. 7 contest will crown the San Dieguito Union High School District champion in the ninth annual “Beach Bowl” with the awarding of the Golden Surfboard.

Kick-off will be at 7 p.m. at La Costa Canyon High School in La Costa, off Camino de los Coches. The game will also be “Senior Night” for the Mavericks.

While the Falcons and Mavericks each bring 5-4 overall records to the game, Torrey Pines has a 2-1 league record and La Costa Canyon is seeking its first league win.

As the final game of the regular season, it will help decide the final seeding for both teams in the CIF playoffs.

Last year’s Beach Bowl saw the Mavericks reclaim the Golden Surfboard with a 27-0 victory over their rivals.

The prior year, the Falcons earned custody of the trophy for the first time, after it had been on display at La Costa Canyon for seven years.

Also in the spirit of the friendly district rivalry, the traditional “Survivor” competition between student representatives from both

are also represented on the Golden Surfboard. As the northern end of the SDUHSD continued to experience a building boom, LCC was added in 1996, and so the north-south rivalry became Torrey Pines and La Costa Canyon. SDHS transformed into San Dieguito Academy the same year, and has no football team.

The Golden Surfboard, the trophy for the winner of the annual Beach Bowl football game, was created nine years ago by students of LCC art teacher Ron Lenc. The teams will meet for bragging rights of the northsouth rivalry Nov. 7. Courtesy photo

schools will be held at halftime, featuring a variety of fun and athletic contests.

Senior students, in male and female categories, at both schools have competed in daily physical contests during the week leading up to the Beach Bowl to determine each campus’ representatives in the final Survivor showdown for further district bragging rights on Friday night.

The Golden Surfboard, a work of art created nine years ago by students of LCC art teacher, Ron Lenc, is made out of a surfboard donated by now retired science teacher Jerry Trust.

The work of art symbolizes the SDUHSD and the history of the north-south

rivalry, going back to 1974 and the days of San Dieguito High School. The current rivals’ school colors and logos

How water can effect your mind

By Bianca Kaplanek

REGION — Surfers, swimmers, sailors and essentially anyone who spends time in or on oceans, rivers or streams will say being near the water is Utopian.

Many cannot explain why such feelings are evoked other than to say their experiences are emotional or perhaps even spiritual.

Wallace J. Nichols begs to differ. A marine biologist and author of “Blue Mind,” a New York Times bestseller, Nichols says his research shows the body has a biological reaction to water that can improve health and happiness and make people more connected and better at what they do.

“When you put your toes into the water or get out on a surfboard, sometimes you feel like Superman or woman, and that means something changed in your brain,” he said. “So what is it?”

That question, while trying to protect endangered sea turtles, is what motivated Nichols to discover the “blue mind,” which refers to the mildly meditative state our brains are in when exposed to water.

Originally from Manhattan, New York, Nichols said he was always around water, either vacationing on the coast or “messing around in creeks.”

“I dreamed of being a marine biologist,” he said.

“Jacques Cousteau was the man.”

He earned his bachelor’s degree in biology and Spanish from DePauw University and a master’s of environmental management in environmental policy and economics from Duke University. Nichols also holds a doctorate in wildlife ecology from the University of Arizona.

His field work took him to Mexico, where he studied sea turtles.

“I knew a small group of people would read my papers but I would never change the world,” he said.

“I wanted to help solve problems, not identify them or describe them.

“I knew I could study sea turtles and travel to great places but to solve the problem I needed to work with the people who were hunting them,” he added.

So Nichols asked fishermen what motivated them to kill an endangered ani-

mal. They told him it was money.

“But I knew that couldn’t be the only reason,” he said. “I don’t work just for the money.”

He asked if they would consider a job building boats, which is safer and pays more. “They said, ‘No way,’” Nichols said. “They needed to be on the water.”

Nichols learned the fishermen take pride in their work, and their colleagues were their friends, so there was a social aspect to it.

During his research he also discovered all decisions have an emotional component. “Even what we have for breakfast is an emotional decision,” he said. “Emotions drive us.

Marketers have understood this for a while.”

Nichols began looking for research on the neuroscience of water. “We’ve studied your brain on everything — wine, music, even bacon. I figured there must be a book on how your brain reacts to water since it’s the most important subject. We’re a water planet.”

When he came up empty handed, he said he tried to get someone else to write such a book but his attempts were unsuccessful. So Nichols immersed himself in neuroscience, going to conferences, reading books and listening to tapes on the subject, even while

in the water.

“Every swim was a lecture,” he said.

His efforts resulted in Blue Mind Summits, during which he pairs water experts such as big-wave surfers “or anyone with the last name Cousteau” with scientists. He then gives them about an hour to discuss a question that’s never been asked.

Topics during the four summits he has held so far have included surf addiction and the over-consumption of endangered animals.

Nichols said the best way to understand the blue mind is to compare it to the red mind, which he defines as the brain during normal everyday activities, such as dealing with deadlines, sitting in traffic and being stressed or overstimulated.

“When you go out to the water you leave your phone behind,” he said. “Visual, cognitive and auditory things become more simple.

It’s your brain on vacation, which is good to do once in a while.

“It’s like when you get stuck trying to solve a problem,” he added. “They tell you to daydream, switch away. That’s kind of what happens when you’re on the water.”

He said that experience results in a sense of awe, which creates an opportunity for more empathy and compassion.

“Awe moves you from me to we,” he explained.

“If most awe is developed in the confines of a video game, that diminishes the capacity for empathy.”

Nichols said such feelings and experiences don’t occur exclusively when people are near water. He said they can also happen while on a hike in the mountains.

“It’s not a competition between nature,” he said.

“But water covers most of the planet and our bodies are mostly water so it’s a good place to start.”

As the keynote speaker during the second annual San Diego County Watershed Summit at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, Nichols presented his research to highlight the importance of maintaining healthy waterways.

The Oct. 30 workshop, hosted by San Diego Gas & Electric, included about 200 representatives from local wetland nonprofit groups, regional and national environmental organizations, municipalities and water agencies and regulators.

The benefits of healthy oceans, rivers and wetlands are not just financial, but emotional as well. People often have fond memories of experiences near the water, whether it’s a walk on the beach or catching that perfect wave.

Surrounded by social media and ubiquitous surveillance cameras, Nichols said waterways remain among the few places that are still private, and privacy is good for mental health.

“We underappreciate those cognitive, emotional, social and psychological benefits of the water,” he said. “These feelings are real and they are important.”

Nichols said proximity to water increases the release of “feel-good” hormones and decreases levels of the stress hormone. So his research can be helpful when dealing with ailments such as Alzheimer’s disease, post-traumatic stress disorder and addiction.

“It’s not a silver bullet,” he said. “But it’s worth putting it into the tool kit.”

Nichols said initially he feared his work wouldn’t be taken seriously.

“The stuff that feels touchy-feely is the hardest science in the world,” he said. “But if you don’t think this is hard science, then you don’t understand it.”

‘Interstellar’s’ space explorations not so stellar

By Noah S. Lee

“Interstellar” exudes magnificence through its visuals, cinematography, sound, and cast, but even those qualities aren’t enough to reach the stars that it longed to see in person.

At first glance “Interstellar” seems equipped to succeed, an impression solidified by the reassuring presence of Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, and Michael Caine. With Christopher Nolan sitting in the director’s chair, it is only natural for a moviegoer to gravitate toward this film’s chances of victory, which appear to be in the bag.

And why shouldn’t it triumph, given its epic premise?

Everything about it spells big and grand: a team of astronauts traveling into outer space to see if humanity can leave a resource-depleted Earth behind and find a future among the stars.

Surely that is a guaranteed win?

Not from where I’m standing. Sorry to cancel your trip, Nolan and co., but “Interstellar” is not really cut out for exploring the unknown. Why? Well, let’s take a look.

For one thing, “Interstellar” progresses at a slow pace, too slow to the point where you feel underwhelmed not too long after McConaughey and his crew leaves Earth.

Even when you factor in the inherent perils these resilient explorers face throughout their undertaking, the lengthy runtime of 169 minutes becomes more time-consuming than fascinating.

Moreover, there really isn’t any tangible tension until the onset of the film’s climax. But wait — what about before that?

Maybe a scene surging with Matthew McConaughey seeks a new world in Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar.” Photo adrenaline or two, yes, but by Melinda Sue Gordon

there is little they can do when the severity of the situations for both the astronauts and the people back home is perceptible mostly at the beginning and toward the final part.

I should also mention that “Interstellar” is VERY scientific, so expect to hear discussions related to wormholes, relativity, and other mind-boggling physics concepts.

I wouldn’t be surprised, however, if audiences find themselves spending more time trying to make sense of the science rather than following the plot, like I did.

And then we have the perplexing outcome, one that I still find myself struggling to understand. I don’t want to step into spoiler territory, but should the conclusion throw you for a loop and plant the question “What the heck?” in your mind, don’t be alarmed.

I, too, experienced a similar reaction upon sampling Mr. Nolan’s latest project.

You’d think “Interstellar” would plummet to its launch pad due to these glaring errors.

Although it is evident that this intergalactic odyssey cannot complete its objective, there are several plus points that prevent it from freefalling.

The all-star cast imbues this prolonged venture with compelling emotion, creating a lasting camaraderie.

McConaughey takes the cake for instilling a very human sensibility in the widowed engineer Cooper; his co-star, Hathaway, proves conversant with the subject matter, and thus handles herself well in illuminating Amelia Brand’s dedication and intelligence.

Nolan regular Caine is as eloquent and reliable as he has always been in his portrayal of Professor Brand.

As for Chastain, she brings

an active determination to the character of Murph that helps to highlight the pain she (and everyone else) feels from not knowing how the mission will turn out as humanity’s predicament worsens.

Finally, the illustrative majesty of “Interstellar” must not be ignored; whether you’re a space buff or not, there’s no denying the impressive layout of the Endurance spacecraft and the various untold phenomena encountered by the crew throughout their voyage.

And with pristine IMAX film photography and what I like to call “the ultimate sound” accentuating such a spectacular display, there is much to be appreciated about the film’s technical aspects.

At the end of the day, though, “Interstellar” is a rare motion picture in which figuring out its long-term destiny is…complicated.

It has sufficient power to go to the Moon, yet also considerable malfunctions to thwart any attempt to leave the Solar System. I’m not disappointed, but I’m not blown away either.

It is true that Mr. Nolan has crafted a bold cinematic endeavor; the experience might be worth checking out at least once.

Even so, I don’t think it qualifies as the grand accomplishment it claims to be. It just isn’t.

And that’s that.

Help bring holiday joy to our military heroes

For 10 years, the staff of Sun Smile Dental in San Marcos has been offering friendly, caring general dentistry services.

Oral health linked to overall health SAN MARCOS — Your mouth has many functions that are integral to your daily life. You use it to smile when you greet someone, kiss your loved ones and eat with to nourish your body. What you might not know is that a healthy mouth is also vital to your overall well-being.

“The mouth is the gateway to your body,” Dr. Shishir Shah of Sun Smile Dental in San Marcos said.

“It is important to understand the substantial impact of dental health on overall health.”

“Routine dental visits aid in the prevention, early detection and treatment of tooth decay, oral soft tissue disease, periodontal disease and 122 other health concerns,” Dr. Shah said. He added that routine visits are the most cost-effective way to take care of your dental health issues. “People may avoid or postpone care, which could result in poor oral

health and untreated periodontal disease,” he said.

Many people don’t realize that dental problems should be treated as seriously as other symptoms of illness. “A thorough oral examination can also detect signs of nutritional deficiencies as well as a number of systemic diseases including infections, immune disorders, injuries and some cancers,” he said. “Research shows that more than 90 percent of all systemic diseases are detectable in the mouth,” Dr. Shah said.

Whether you have been diligent about your oral health care, or you’ve decided it’s time to get back on track, Sun Smile Dental wants to make it easy for patients to take care of their oral needs.

“We are a one-stop dental service office,” Dr. Shah said. He added that they

aim to take away the stress of being referred out for more specialized dental services. Sun Smile Dental offers general dentistry services in addition to cosmetic services, orthodontics, oral surgery, implants and more.

“Our friendly, caring team has been serving the San Marcos area for 10 years with compassion and integrity, providing the highest quality family dental care from convenient cleanings to restorative treatment options,” Dr. Shah said.

Recognizing that some patients suffer from dental anxiety, Sun Smile Dental offers pain-free/anxiety free laughing gas and oral sedation.

“We’re proud of our clean, spacious, state-ofthe-art office and the gentle technologies we provide for your safety and well-being,” Dr. Shah said.

“We are the only location in North County to offer three- to 12-month Fastbraces® and we offer Invisalign® clear removable aligners for minor or major orthodontic corrections for better oral health and a beautiful smile,” Dr. Shah said.

Sun Smile Dental offers early morning and late evening appointments to accommodate busy schedules and offers 24-hour emergency care.

“When you visit our team, you’ll receive a warm, friendly welcome and see that your visits with us are all about you — your happiness, your comfort and your dental health,” Dr. Shah said.

“We will always take time to listen to you and thoroughly explain your options.

Dr. Shah has 25 years of experience in all aspects of general and cosmetic dentistry. He also devotes many hours to advanced education in the newest technologies and procedures.

Sun Smile Dental is located at 1582 W. San Marcos Blvd. Suite 201.

Help be a hero to theheroes this holiday season.

For military families with loved ones deployed, it’s hard enough to have to endure a holiday season without their mother or father around the dinner table.

And still harder if their loved one comes backhaving sustained combat injuries.

That’s why the nonprofit Spirit Of Sharing (SOS) is rising to the occasion by helping provide not only the basic necessities any family would need, but also by bringing a little holiday cheer into the lives of military families that are in need.

The primary focus of SOS, which is locally based in Oceanside, is to serve the military families that are local to this area, with strong focus on ensuring the children of these families having a wonderful holiday season.

Anyone who makes a donation will directly support families, right in their own neighborhoods.

SOS is 100 percent volunteer staffed with 100 percent of all donations raised going directly to local, southern California military families.

Donations are 100 percent tax deductible.

Striving to build personal and lasting relationships with each family, SOS is able to gain better insight and understanding of indi-

Oceanside-based nonprofit Spirit Of Sharing has helped to provide active duty military families in need during the holiday season and throughout the year, during tragedy, crisis or other unforeseen event.

vidual and familial needs and interests.

Each family is generally provided with several weeks’ worth of groceries and all of the goodies that make the holiday season so warm, comforting, and special.

SOS also provides eachchild in these families with age-appropriate and personal gifts, including clothing, educational materials and toys.

Each gift is individually wrapped and labeled by our wonderful volunteers “From Santa” and personally delivered at Christmas.

Based in Oceanside, Calif. the small nonprofit helps active duty military families throughout Southern California, from the Naval Base in San Diego as far North as Edwards Air Force

Base.

Since 2000, when the charity was started with the adoption of two families for the holiday season, they’ve continued to grow each year.

To date, more than 800 military children and over 350 military families have received help from SOS. The Campbell family, who founded SOS is very sensitive to the stresses that military children experience and created SOS to help military children to be afforded the opportunity to have wonderful holiday memories in light of the heavy loads they often bear, as being part of a military family.

In fact, many of those working with SOS are military veterans and/or spouses.

With the toll of multiple

deployments over the last 10 years affecting families, SOS is seeing an increase in the amount of military families in need each year families are now trying to cope with the aftermath of war and multiple deployments.

And they still need help to continue to do so.

With year-round fundraising efforts, SOS is always looking for donations of any kind, including gas cards, gift cards for clothing, toys — even groceries.

People interested in donating items may call SOS directly at (760) 726-8100 or emailing questions to spiritofsharing@gmail.com.

More information is available on their website at spiritofsharing.org.

SOS is at 3355 Mission Ave. Suite 111 in Oceanside.

Cooling off fat with CoolSculpt technology Dermacare is pleased to announce the addition of the CoolSculpt procedure to their repertoire of body shaping services.

CoolSculpt will add a non-surgical, no downtime treatment option to Dermacare’s weight loss counseling (TSFL), and laser assisted liposuction (LifeSculpt). This complement of options will allow Dermacare to customize a plan to meet most everyone’s goals from complete lifestyle change to minimizing that last area of stubborn fat.

CoolSculpt is an amazing technology that freezes fat. An applicator is applied to the treated area and the underlying skin and fat is pulled up between two cold plates. The temperature is held at a point that the fat cells are damaged but the skin is preserved. Over the next eight to 12 weeks those fat cells are slowly absorbed and metabolized reducing the fat by 20 percent. In addition to being affective, this is a straight forward procedure. There is no anesthesia needed, as there is virtually no discomfort, and a person can go right back to life or work from the procedure.

Dr. Jeff Birchall, Dermacare’s Medical Director and Founder, said there were three things that influenced his decision to bring the CoolSculpt into his practice. First the science,

some of the field’s greatest minds out of Harvard University developed the technology. Their research shows that CoolSculpting works and they know how it works. Second, other practices, in the real world are having great success with CoolSculpt. Their clients are happy. Thirdly, this not only for women, 30 percent of CoolSculpt clients are men, up from the usually 10 percent for other cosmetic services. Men hate their “inner tube” waist too. The fact that this is non-invasive and that they can get right back to work with no downtime and nobody else knowing about it appeals to the male psyche.

Almost anybody is a candidate for CoolSculpt provided they are in reasonable health. There are a couple of things to be aware of if you are considering this procedure. It is not a weight loss procedure. The ideal person is at a healthy weight and just needs to reduce a stubborn fat deposits. If sig-

Dr. Jeff Birchall is the founder and medical director of Dermacare.

nificant weight loss is needed, other treatments should be considered first. On the other end of the spectrum, if a client is really thin and only has loose skin then this is not a good procedure. Everyone else between those extremes can benefit from CoolSculpting.

Though almost everyone is a candidate, each person is unique! That is why, Susie Jensen, Dermacare Carlsbad’s Patient Care Coordinator, strongly recommends a consultation and development of customized

treatment plan. The price of the procedure varies depending on each person’s goals and needs and this can only be determined with a consultation. As a guide, the range will be between $700 and $1,800 per area.

In choosing a procedure you not only need to pick the right technology you need to pick the right provider.

Dermacare is confident in their technologies, Medifast, CoolSculpt and LifeSculpt (laser-assisted liposuction). Dr. Birchall has been a physician in the community for 24 years and Dermacare has been providing cosmetic services for eight years. Their goal is provide expert care in a comfortable and safe environment.

In addition to body shaping service Dermacare provides a wide array of cosmetic services including: Facials, Botox, Fillers and lasers. For more information or to book a consultation their website is dermacaresandiego.com or call (760) 448-8100.

Fresh concept in auto repair comes to Oceanside OCEANSIDE — When it comes to working on cars, some people are do-it-yourselfers. Some people need a little help.

And then there are the professionals. An innovative new Oceanside business takes care of all three groups of people.

U Fix It Automotive takes an industry that is infamously rife with overcharging and puts it into the hands of the customers.

Owner Joel Munoz describes the business as having three different aspects.

The first is Do It Yourself.

“This is for the hardcore do-it-yourselfers,” Munoz said. “You can come in, change your oil, do your own brakes. You can also do major repairs like transmission or engine work.” The shop is set up with six bays, five lifts and every tool you could possibly need. Another option is to bring your own tools.

The Do It Yourself option also appeals to inde-

pendent auto mechanics without their own shop. U Fix It’s extended evening hours make this the ideal place for mechanics to do side jobs to supplement their income.

And for those working on an old muscle car or some other project car, this is somewhere that you can rent short- or long-term space so that you can finish your project at your own pace.

Then there is We Assist You. “This is for someone who wants to learn,” Munoz said. “We have technicians on staff to help. We can help anyone at any level.

Our tech is there to answer questions, be your guiding light.”

And for customers looking for high-quality, low-cost auto repairs there is We Repair It. Munoz said they offer a full range of maintenance and repair services, just like a traditional shop. The difference is in the price. “I’ve been

the victim of exorbitant auto shop fees,” Munoz said.

“Our labor rates are about half of traditional shops and we have lower margins on our parts. We run a very efficient operation and we pass the savings on to our customers.”

If customers need parts, U Fix It will pre-order the parts for them when booking their appointment and have the parts waiting for them when they do their repair.

car, since rationing limited the amount of gas a person could buy each month. Like other young women, Amy saved her ration stamps for weekend jaunts to Las Vegas, country-side drives or picnics in the nearby San Bernardino Mountains.

When her hourly wage reached 45 cents, Amy and

two friends rented a one-bedroom house with separate garage, for Amy’s used De Soto coupe. The rent was $35 a month, split three ways, with each roomie responsible for their own food. The three girls seldom saw each other since they worked different shifts.

When Amy went to buy the car, her boyfriend, said, “Pay ‘em with a $100 bill.” She did.

The dealer was so impressed

he gave her a free oil change.

To Amy, the war was remote, although occasionally, military bigwigs visited the factory. Also, there was a constant stream of reminders on the radio and in newspapers and magazines that, “Loose lips sink ships,” and “It’s your business to keep America’s business safe.” Amy had one goal: to be rated as a good worker. One day she

To top it off, Munoz offers “No Excuse Weekends.” In addition to staying open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Sunday, you won’t have to miss any football as Charger and college football games will be on while you work.

Saving customers money and time are a big part of U Fix It Automotive’s plan.

But Munoz takes it one step further. “We are going to stress being honest,” he said. “If a customer is unhappy for any reason, we will take care of them. Our goal is to redefine the traditional auto repair business model.” He added that customer service and feedback play a large role in how the business is run.

U Fix It Automotive is located at 2420 Industry Street, Suite C in Oceanside. For more information, call (760) 544-6181 or visit sandiegoufixitauto.com. was called into her supervisor’s office. When he stood to greet her, papers fell to the floor. Amy helped pick them up. One was her evaluation.

A quick glance revealed, “As good as any man.”

That’s how Amy learned she’d been selected to work on the much-anticipated Constellation, a plane so advanced in design it could fly faster than the Japanese Zero fighter.

One day, talking to her older brother, he said, “We have a real ‘hush-hush’ plane joining the fleet. The ‘Connie.’ I just saw the third one made.”

“I know,” Amy said, “I helped built it.”

Incidentally, the name, “Rosie the Riveter,” has a San Diego connection. Rosie Bonavitas worked for Convair, and was often featured in newspaper articles as the original Rosie, but most experts concede the iconic figure is an amalgamation of all females employed then.

Pre-Scout Sniper Training:

Passing the torch

By Cpl. Seth Starr

This course greatly enhances our shooting skills, but more so prepares us for the responsibility and capability of a scout sniper.”

CAMP PENDLETON — 1st Marine Division Schools recently began the second week of training for Marines attending the prescout sniper course aboard Camp Pendleton, Oct. 27.

Hand selected from their units, Marines from 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment and 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, all spent countless hours during the pre-scout sniper course learning to apply their weapon systems and the skills needed to graduate and move on to the famed scout sniper course.

Corporal Adam Gines, a rifleman with 3/1, gave some insight into the course from a student’s perspective.

“It’s really about the small things that make this course difficult, like learning not to leave a piece of gear or any physical indicators that would possibly reveal our position,” said Gines.

Gines added that course instructors teach and expect students to do everything a scout sniper would do on a real-world mission.

During the first two weeks of training students are taught fundamentals of

Cpl. William Ross Anti-tank missile man

shooting precision weapon systems, day and night advanced land navigation and the basics of field stalking.

A division schools instructor said that the course was highly competitive and dependent on a student’s ability to perform skillfully from day to day.

Every phase of training simulates real-world scenarios and tactics.

Students ran to and from every yard line with more than 100 pounds of gear after engaging targets to practice displacing their position, breaking any pattern they may inadvertently

reveal to the enemy.

“This course greatly enhances our shooting skills, but more so prepares us for the responsibility and capability of a scout sniper,” said Cpl. William Ross, an anti-tank missile man with 1/7.

“The reason I wanted to be a part of the scout community is the Marines on the inside. They’re all highly motivated, on point and ready to do their job no matter what it may call for.”

Despite the physical and mental rigors of the course, the students looked to their instructors for the tools they required to succeed.

“The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced,” said Gines “To be honest, it’s about how much you put into this course. I’m only going to benefit from all this if I put in 100 percent.”

Students from 3/1 and 1/7 will continue to work toward their goal of graduating scout sniper school which is slated to begin in the spring of 2015, ultimately helping to ensure the 1st Marine Division, I MEF and the U.S. Marine Corps remain America’s expeditionary force in readiness.

and his orchestra, the Andrew Sisters, Artie Shaw, the Dorsey Brothers and Sammy Kaye and other musicians were wildly popular. Local clubs held jitterbug contests and off-shift workers crowded into movie houses to see “Casablanca,” “The Big Sleep,” “Rebecca,” “The Great Dictator” and other silver screen favorites. One night Amy went to an Army dance. She wore a dress designed somewhat like a sailor’s suit. “I got plenty of attention,” she says.

In some parts of America, female workers received unwelcome advances, often from married males. To protect themselves, the women adopted a code. Married gents were identified as Mr. LookSee. If single, he was labelled “A-Able.” To Amy, with raven black hair and a ready smile, men-women issues were not a problem. “Maybe I’m naive, but I never thought about it.

I was treated with respect. I assumed other women were, too.”

One day Amy stepped back to examine a finished project and tumbled off her work platform. She hopped up and resumed her job, hoping no one had seen her fall. At shift’s end, several co-workers asked if she was okay. A male worker asked, “You falling for me?” Enter Dale, who became her husband. Their first date

They were married a year later, a marriage that lasted some 40 years.

After the war, Amy became a licensed pilot, paying $180.00, plus plane rental of $22 a day, to take lessons. She soloed after 6 sessions. She and Dale moved to Lewiston, Idaho where they bought a plane. Dale, a house mover, as in load-that-sucker-on-aflatbed and transport it elsewhere, had wanderlust in his veins. He traded the demons of Placerville for the dreams of Sonoma or Clarksville or Williston, moving his family some 55 times, to all western states, except Oregon. During this time, Amy gave birth to six children — three boys and three girls.

Dale also bought and sold airplanes. Among the many was an Aerona Champ, a Piper Tri-Pacer four passenger Apache, and Piper Aztec.

They flew the West and to Mexico on business or fun and entertainment. When Amy went behind the stick, she had to modify things.

Only 5 foot 1 and ¾ inches tall, she used a 10-inch pillow to see out of the cockpit, and 5-inch wooden blocks attached to the pedals so she could manipulate them. That didn’t deter Amy. She flew for many years. On her 91st birthday, she took the controls of

friend’s Cirrus single engine for a short time.

While living in Sunnydale, Amy saw an ad for the Sweet Adeline’s Barber Shop Chorus in a donut box. She called the number. That started a 22-year love affair. Amy not only sang for the group, but arranged music, recruited choir members, scheduled appearances and in general, ran the show.

Pleasant and unassuming, the first thing one notices about Amy, is her snapping-brown eyes and devastating smile. When asked about her longevity, she says, “I owe that to my parents. My mother, LaRhee, lived until she was 103. Dad, Elton, lived to be almost 102.”

Today, Amy spends Friday morning with So Sew, a church sewing group who knit layettes, afghans, quilts and hats for new-born military babies, the VA and Wounded Warriors. Amy knitted over 100 baby hats, last year alone.

In addition to devoting time to her great grandchildren, she travels and volunteers at the San Marcos Regional Library.

In her spare time, she writes short stories.

From Rosie the Riveter, to airplane pilot to church worker, Amy has lived a life of service. Aren’t you glad she’s your North County neighbor?

There were also no changes among the councilmembers.

District One Councilman Ed Gallo won against newcomer and democratic candidate Consuelo Martinez.

Gallo had 183 more votes than Martinez after all the precincts had been counted.

Councilman John Masson won his seat in District Two with 50 percent of the vote.

This was Masson’s first time running since being appointed to the seat in 2012. He filled Councilwoman Marie Waldron’s seat after she was elected to State Assembly.

Rick Paul trailed behind with 23 percent, Nicole Downey had about 16 percent and Chad ‘Shad’ Hunziker had 10 percent.

NOV. 7, 2014 The measure needs 55 percent of the voters to vote yes and since all the precincts have been counted, 55.55 percent have casted their ballots in favor.

Proposition G, which aimed to make Escondido a charter city, was not passed by 62 percent of the voters.

Abed endorsed the move because he said it would have taken power away from the state.

Abed also said it would have saved the city money because the city wouldn’t have to abide by the state mandated prevailing wages and the city would get to decide what to pay government employees.

Critics of the proposition feared it gave to much power to city officials and there was not enough evidence in surrounding cities to prove the benefits of a charter city.

Voters also struck down Proposition H or the Lakes Specific Plan, with 60 percent of voters against it.

owners Organization (ECCHO) asked the city to declare the defunct golf course at the former Escondido Country Club as permanent open space.

The city did and the developer, Michael Schlesinger responded with a lawsuit arguing that the city unlawfully took his property by the open space declaration.

Supporters of the Lakes Specific Plan said the passing of the 430home development would save the city from a costly legal battle.

Schlesinger also said he planned to include an Olympic sized swimming pool and miles of trails for all Escondido residents to use.

Opponents thought 430 homes would be too much development and would overcrowd the schools.

Also, those surrounding the golf course didn’t want to lose their view, which they said was a huge selling point when they moved to the area.

The issue has gained regional attention and Schlesinger will likely continue with the lawsuit. is one of the first to rely on low vineyard yields, barrel fermentation with native yeast and avoiding filtration. She worked for some of the best vineyards, and now has her own, the Marcassin winery.
