CARLSBAD — Citing concerns about enforcement, potential health risks and possible risks for minors, Carlsbad banned the smoking of electronic cigarettes, known as “ecigarettes,” in public spaces. “It’s our goal to ease the enforcement by ensuring that e-cigarettes are prohibited like other tobacco products,” said City Attorney Celia Brewer, presenting the matter before
because of the importance of the San Elijo Lagoon and the surrounding environment. Construction began on the community park, located behind Vons off of Santa Fe Drive, in September 2012. Rossini Creek, a riparian wetland that begins at the foot of the park, snakes southwest and discharges into the mouth of the San Elijo Lagoon, which is near Birmingham Drive and San Elijo Avenue. The lagoon already has too much sediment, Stewart said. Adding more sediment contributes to the need of opening the lagoon via means like bulldozer dredging. Absent dredging, the extra park sediment also holds the potential to sprout more invasive plants and kill fish that depend on the lagoon, according to the complaint. The complaint also states the city didn’t have a suitable runoff management plan in place for much of last fall and winter, resulting in the city being fined for 16 days of that

ENCINITAS — The city could have to pay up to $430,900 due to sediment from the Encinitas Community Park entering downstream waterways, along with other alleged violations. The California Regional Water Quality Control Board recently levied the fine. The city, which is disputing the board’s findings, has until later this month to respond. The board’s complaint states that the city and the park contractor, USS Cal Builders, had ineffective drainage and erosion controls on the site for several months. It goes on to say documentation shows rains pushed sediment — dirt from the park — into Rossini Creek and the San Elijo Lagoon on Dec. 13, 2012 as well as March 8 of this year. “They seemed not at all prepared for last winter,” said Rebecca Stewart, sanitary engineering associate with the state water quality control board. She added that the case was “raised to a priority”

By Bianca Kaplanek
SOLANA BEACH — Council members have questioned the results of a report they ordered in response to an initiative that could dictate the use of the Fletcher Cove Community Center. City Attorney Johanna Canlas sent a letter dated Nov. 26 to Helen Holmes Peak that lists a handful of “significant impacts” council members said are not discussed or analyzed in the report they ordered on Oct. 9. Council members said the document does not address the fact that any changes to the potential new law could only be made by the voters in an election, which the city would have to pay for. However, in two sections — under fiscal impacts and in the conclusion — the report states that the city “may face costs from increased elections.” The letter also states any legal challenges to the measure, if adopted by voters at a Feb. 11, 2014 special election, would have to be defended and paid for by the city. According to the initiative, Fletcher Cove Community Center will be “available for use by Solana Beach residents.” City officials are concerned that language could result in equal protection claims. “While the Constitution does not presume distinctions between residents and nonresidents …

to be discriminatory,” the letter states, the measure is unclear whether nonresidents are excluded from using the center. The measure, now known as Proposition B, allows the city to collect “nominal fees.” Because the amount is not specific, council members fear the city “would only be able to charge a small amount and would not be able to recover costs.” City officials say
Proposition B does not take into consideration the number of parking spaces available at the community center because it does not limit the number of people who can attend special events there. Canlas writes in her letter that the law “could be challenged by neighbors if the parking situation has a negative impact” on the area. City officials also said the report did not fully address any impacts from
confusion between legislative acts and administrative functions. The report, prepared by Peak and Inga Lintvedt, from Lounsbery Ferguson Altona & Peak, analyzed, according to the election code, any impacts the new law may have in seven specific areas. The election code allows the preparers to study any other matters requested. “The City Council did not request that any other mat-

Saga of the community center By Eric T. Lodge
The ongoing saga of the Initiative (now known as Proposition B) concerning rental of the Fletcher Cove Community Center for private celebrations, to quote Lewis Carroll, gets “curiouser and curiouser.” After the petition had been certified as having enough valid signatures, the Solana Beach City Council was required by law to consider whether to adopt the initiative as an ordinance or call for an election. A special meeting was held for that purpose on Oct. 9. The council wisely and unanimously chose a third option: They requested, as authorized by the California Elections Code, an independent study and report regarding the potential impacts of the initiative if it were adopted as an ordinance. The purpose of such a report is to assist the council in making an informed decision about whether to adopt the initiative without proceeding to an election. As was explained to the council by the city manager, Section 9212 of the Elections Code spells out several areas that are to be covered in the report, plus “any other matters the legislative body requests to be in the report.” The council did not request that the report cover “any other matters.” The city engaged the prestigious municipal law firm of Lounsbery, Ferguson, Altona & Peak to prepare the report. According to the city manager, the report was received on Nov. 4. The detailed 11 page report concluded, in essence, that the initiative, if adopted by the city, would have little or no financial impact and that any public safety, parking, noise, and related concerns could be adequately controlled through existing laws and the permitting process. As its first order of business at a Nov. 6 special meeting the council summarily “received and filed” the report. There was no discussion of the content of the Report and, even though attorneys from the Lounsbery
firm were present, no oral presentation of the report was requested or made for the benefit of the council and the public. Then, as its second order of business, and without commenting on or referencing the report, the council voted 5-0 to proceed with the election and not enact the Initiative as an ordinance. By now everyone knows that the council is antagonistic toward Proposition B because they perceive it as an invasion of their prerogatives. It would have been embarrassing for them to highlight the fact that the independent Report that they commissioned (and paid for) concluded that adoption of the Initiative would not have adverse consequences to the city. But that’s not the end of the story. At the request of a council member, the report was back on the agenda of the Nov. 20 meeting to “discuss” and “provide direction as needed.” Apparently waking up to the fact that the report did not support the action taken at the previous meeting, the council discussion centered around alleged factual errors, unfounded conclusions, and issues not considered in the report. The council essentially requested that the report be revised to be consistent with their views. All of this raises several questions: 1) Why was the report requested in the first place if not to provide the council and the public with information about the effects of the Initiative? 2) Why did the council not discuss the report and its conclusions while the adoption of the Initiative was still under consideration? 3) Why did the council, after making the irrevocable decision not to adopt the Initiative as an ordinance, request that the report be supplemented or modified at public expense? It’s sort of like requesting an environmental impact report after a project has been completed or a surgeon ordering x-rays after completing the surgery. Just curious

What if Jerry doesn’t run? CALIFORNIA FOCUS
There could be no better Y HOMAS LIAS Christmas present for bunches of Democratic politicians than an announcement from Gov. Jerry Brown that he will not seek a second straight term in office, fourth of his lifetime. Already the longest-serving governor in California history, Brown will be 76 if he stands for reelection next year and 77 barely three months into his fourth term, if reelected. The question is whether he wants to do it. He’s hinted he does, of course, talking occasionally about his wish to see through the budgetary reforms he instituted after being elected in 2010 and a desire for a lasting legacy of leaving the California economy in good shape. He had quietly raised more than $12 million toward a putative reelection campaign by late October, with no discernible need to spend any of it during the primary

election season, meaning he could use it all in the fall, in case a wealthy, self-funded Republican candidate emerges from the woodwork in the next few weeks. Just such a possibility has lately emerged, with former Goldman Sachs executive Neel Kashkari saying he may run. But there also have been a few rumors suggesting Brown might not want to bother, that he might be ready to retire after a lifetime of having his every move and sentence parsed for deep meaning and policy implications. Nobody is betting on the energetic Brown retiring, but there are hints this is what some voters would like him to do, even if they have positive feelings about his performance. That was suggested by a November USC/Los Angeles Times poll which found more than 50 percent of Californians generally approve Brown’s performance in office, but only 32 percent saying they’re inclined to vote for him next fall.This big gap may be TURN TO CALIFORNIA ON A26

Carlsbad focuses negotiating energy on Encina Power Station By Rachel Stine
CARLSBAD — The city of Carlsbad dedicated time, money and energy opposing the construction of a second, larger power plant next to the existing Encina Power Station. But with overriding approval for the project from the state and a regional power shortage, construction is inevitable. After spending six years and about $2.3 million opposing the project, the City Council decided at its Dec. 3 meeting to refocus its energy to try negotiating with NRG and SDG&E on the eventual expansion. “At the end of the day, you want to create energy and we want a clean site,” said Mayor Matt Hall, addressing NRG and SDG&E representatives. NRG, the owner of the Encina Power Station, first proposed the second plant, the Carlsbad Energy Center Project, on its 95-acre property along Carlsbad’s coastline in 2007. The planned plant would consist of two ninestory industrial buildings and two 14-story smoke stacks and generate 558 megawatts of power. The plant would eventually replace the first three units of the existing 59-year-old power station.
Construction on the more than $500 million project was originally scheduled to start at the beginning of 2014. Carlsbad viewed the new power plant as a dangerous safety risk and a coastline eyesore that went against city land use regulations and offered no local
The city’s opposition to the project was overruled by the California Supreme Court. At the time, Hall said in a statement, “It’s important to keep in mind there is still a long road ahead before this project sees the light of day, if ever.” But with the official

benefit. The city cited that the plant would be too close to Interstate 5 and lack sufficient access for emergency vehicles. It argued that with new air-cooled plants, the project should be located out of sight, in an industrial area. Officials added that without a contract to sell the power locally, the power produced at the site would not benefit local residents. NRG obtained permit for its project from the California Energy Commission in May 2012.

Connor’s little pink fists clench into the air as I place my cool stethoscope on his rising chest. A shrill squeal escapes his tiny lips and his eyes strain to peel open under the bright hospital lights. Kate is watching us both intently. At 4 years old she is already fiercely protective of him. She strokes his fine, blonde curls and whispers in her best big girl voice, “It’s OK, Katie’s here.” I reassure her that she has a perfect little brother. Still weary from a 3 a.m. delivery, Jenny beams proudly at both of them from her bed, her own blonde curls matted down against her face by the sweat of labor. The large door to their room suddenly swings open as Mike and his parents burst in buzzing with anxious delight. They set down the paper grocery bag teeming with sandwiches and drinks. Grandma Donna whips out one of the three new onesies she just purchased and proceeds to change Connor. Grandpa Jack gives me a big bear hug and thanks me for being there. I tell him there is no place else I’d rather be. Everyone in this room is my patient. I am their family doctor. The doctors of North Coast Family Medical Group (NCFMG) have been caring for the families of Coastal North County San Diego for over 35 years. As family physicians, we have been trained in all areas of medicine to provide comprehensive care to our patients through all stages of life. We partner with our patients and families to anticipate their acute, chronic and preventive care needs. We can diagnose and treat the full range of problems patients typically bring to their doctors, regardless of age or gender. At NCFMG, we take care of the physical, mental and emotional health of both our patients and our patients’ families using evidence-based medicine and established practice guidelines, while accounting for individual preferences. We are at the center of patient care, coordinating and guiding our patients through what can be a very confusing and fragmented health care system. NCFMG is proud to be named the only private practice group listed among the top five medical practices in San Diego for two consecutive years. We are also honored with the distinction of having all six of our physicians named as Top Doctors by San Diego Magazine — recognized by their physician peers as doctors they would recommend to their family members. We truly are committed to treating every patient as we would want our family members to be treated. Our modern office maximizes the use of state of the art technology to provide this highly personalized care. As pioneers of medicine’s digital age, we have been using electronic medical records for nearly a decade. Our patients can email their doctors directly, check test results securely online and schedule appointments through our virtual office. For the convenience of our patients, we are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. We have easy access to appointments — most patients can be accommodated within 24 hours of their request to be seen. NCFMG accepts many different insurance plans. Two days later, it’s time to go home. Connor is bundled tightly in his blue and white striped fleece blanket. A cozy matching hat keeps falling over the hazel eyes he can barely keep open. Three generations are ready to bring him home. I tell Katie that we’ll see each other again in a few days when Connor visits our office for the first time. “I’m excited to show him what it’s like,” she calls out as she gives me a high five on her way out the door.

Escondido OKs its new voting districts By Rachel Stine
ESCONDIDO — Complying with a lawsuit settlement, City Council approved the proposed city boundaries for four voting districts used to elect councilmembers. The lawsuit against the city, settled in March, alleged that the city’s atlarge elections discriminated against Latinos, who make up the majority of the city’s population. With the voting districts, one councilmember will be elected from each district, and the mayor will be elected by a citywide vote. The intention is that it will be easier for candidates to be elected because they will only have to campaign within their districts. In this way, candidates will have to appeal to community interests, including the interests of Latinos, to garner support and consequently those interests will gain representation on the council. An independent districting commission mapped out the boundaries based on community feedback collected over the past few months and presented the boundaries for approval at the Dec. 4 meeting. In accordance with voting laws, the districts were created to cover a contiguous geographic area, contain an equal number of residents, and group together residents with shared community interests. Each of the four districts contain about 36,000 residents, one fourth of the city’s total population of 143,907 residents. The majority of eligible votes in the central district that covers most of the city’s urban downtown area are Latinos. That district is considered most likely to produce a Latino candidate.
The three other districts cover the northern, southwestern and southeastern portions of the city. The boundaries were established in a way that none of the four current councilmembers live in the same district, though that was not a requirement. Four of the councilmembers, except for Deputy Mayor Olga Diaz, voiced opposition to the city’s obligation to create the districts in the first place. But they unanimously approved the proposed boundaries brought forth TURN TO DISTRICTS ON A10
sions, while not easy, are more easily made keeping that in mind when the officeholder’s electoral constituency is the entire city as well. People get passionate about any number of issues. Fighting for or against a new road or development, keeping parks open, public safety, and the like. What their passion often fails to
take into account is what may be best for the city and its residents as a whole. The challenge for candidates and voters alike in district elections is to remember that occasionally, while their issue may seem to be important or necessary to them, the community as a whole derives greater benefit when their plaints are ignored. If democracy is to survive at any level, it’s imperative that the parts work in favor of the whole.

Assistant City Manager Gary Barberio acknowledged that,“The city has invested significant resources, both time and energy and finances,in the opposition of this effort.” But he conceded that because of the SONGS closure, “The energy supply environment in California has dramatically changed.” Residents who helped the original opposition effort spoke out against negotiating.

THE COAST NEWS motto was, ‘The wrong power plan in the wrong location.’ And it still is.” “I don’t want the public to think that we’re changing course. I think it’s prudent that when we see the writing on the wall...it’s in the best interest of everybody, especially our community, to find some compromises,” said Councilmember Keith Blackburn. “(NRG and the city) both understand each other’s positions. But, they’re fighting for what’s in the best interest of their business and we’re fighting for what’s in the best interest of our community,” he added. As a whole, council agreed that it was worth working on negotiations in the hopes of reaching compromises between NRG and Carlsbad’s competing interests. They voted unanimously to that effect.
Oceanside rehires Financing for clean energy projects approved William Marquis By Rachel Stine
CARLSBAD — Two new for-profit corporations will help with upfront financing for renewable energy as well as energy and water efficiency charging infrastructure projects in Carlsbad. Thanks to Assembly Bill 811 signed in 2008, cities and counties in California are able to establish programs with outside companies to finance environmentally beneficial energy and water projects through property taxes. These projects are referred to as PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) programs. “PACE financing reduces one of the barriers that prevents people from doing energy conservation, water conservation, or renewable energy proj-

ects,” said Senior Planner Mike Grim. Two such companies, California HERO (Home Energy Renovation Opportunity) and Figtree PACE, applied to provide such financing for projects in the city and were presented to council at its Dec. 3 meeting. Grim explained that the law views projects such as solar panels and electric car charging stations just as beneficial to an area as other infrastructure like roads and traffic lights. Such projects can benefit the environment, create jobs and increase property values. These advantages stand even if the project is built on private property as part of a home or business. AB 811 creates a means for companies to provide financing to pay for the initial costs of installing these expensive projects and have that financing gradually paid off by nearby property owners through property taxes over the years. This is done at no cost to the city or county. “In essence, we’re trying to encourage the expansion of those types of opportunities,” said Mayor Pro Tem Mark Packard, referring to the electric vehicle charging stations that were recently installed at the Carlsbad Premium Outlets. Without discussion, City Council unanimously approved both companies.

OCEANSIDE — William Marquis, city senior property agent, will be retiring from over 30 years of city service on Dec. 19 and beginning a part-time position with the city Jan. 7, 2014. The unusual short gap between his retirement and part-time employment is due to his knowledge of significant city projects including the San Luis Rey Flood Control Project and mapping and securing transactional documentation of city owned properties. Both projects are still in process. Without much discussion City Council unanimously approved Marquis’ immediate rehiring to a part-time position Dec. 4. Councilwoman Esther Sanchez was absent. Marquis role will be as a consultant assistant in the Property Management Division. He will work approximately 12 hours a week at his current hourly rate of $41.08. His hours for 2014 will be capped at 624 and his annual pay will not exceed $26,000. The part-time position will allow Marquis to see through the completion of the flood control project and mapping of city properties. It also provides opportunities for him to train the new senior property agent the city is seeking to
hire following his retirement. The search has begun, but the position has not yet been filled. Marquis will concurrently receive hourly pay for the part-time position and earned pension and benefits for his 30 plus years of service. In addition to approving the rehiring of Marquis, City Council also acknowledged upcoming holiday events. The seventh annual holiday tree lighting at the Sunset Market will follow the tradition of Santa Claus, the mayor and dignitaries arriving by fire engine to light the tree at the Regal Cinema Complex Dec. 5 at 6 p.m. Horse and carriage rides, train rides and entertainment will be part of the holiday fun. The MainStreet Oceanside Sunset Market will be open every Thursday in December from 5 to 9 p.m. The daytime Farmers Market will also be open on Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Both outdoor markets feature organic fruits and vegetables, flowers, hot food and a variety of goods and services. The Oceanside Yacht Club annual Parade of Lights will treat viewers to a fleet of decorated boats that taxi around Oceanside Harbor Dec. 14 at 7 p.m. The Friends of the Oceanside Public Library will hold the annual Holiday Home Tour. The self guided tour of five extremely decorated homes and two special stops at the California Surf Museum and the Succulent Garden Cafe is the Friends of the Oceanside Public Library’s major annual fundraiser. Homes range from beach modern to historic villas. Tickets are available at the Civic Center and Mission Branch Libraries. Funds raised support children and adult library programs and purchasing new books and materials. A gift boutique at the Civic Center Library the same day will also raise funds for the library. The boutique will feature gifts, a silent auction, food and entertainment. The Holiday Home Tour and boutique take place Dec. 15 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Del Mar collects input from community for new City Hall During the two-and-ahalf-hour roundtable event, city staff briefed attendees on four categories. With help from city staff and council members, groups then discussed their options and reported the results. The first task was to list the uses the community wanted in a civic space. Options included administrative offices, council chambers or a town hall meeting space, public parking, community meeting rooms, a plaza or open space, an area for a farmers market or a community center. All six tables listed offices for city staff as the No. 1 priority, with meeting space for City Council. Most also saw parking and multiuse meeting spaces as important amenities. Residents were then

DEL MAR — A new City Hall should be in the downtown village area, preferably where the current facility is located, and it should include high-tech administrative offices for staff and a council meeting area. That was the general consensus of the approximately 45 residents who attended a Dec. 2 workshop, the first of what will be many public outreach meetings to replace the deteriorating City Hall at 1050 Camino del Mar. Mayor Terry Sinnott said everyone should attempt to wear two hats. “First of all, naturally, your individual resident hat,” he said. “But above all we need you to be thinking about Del Mar as a whole. “It’s trying to put yourself in the place of the decision makers and the whole community as to what we really should be doing,” Sinnott said. “So wearing your Del Mar hat is very important.” Residents discuss options for a new City Hall at a Dec. 2 workshop.

Council to create definition for community character over future roadway improvements By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — What is community character? The City Council will try and define the oft-used phrase in the future to give the city’s engineering department flexibility when requiring property owners to install roadside improvements. Council members agreed to take on the subject during a strategic planning meeting tackling transportation on Wednesday. “Defining community character is going to be a true challenge, because people see their community through their own lens,” Councilwoman Kristin Gaspar said. Glenn Pruim, director of Engineering and Public Works, said community character popped up when residents objected to proposed design standards on Crest Drive last year. After receiving a proposal
to build a home on Crest Drive, requirements would threaten incorporating community charthe engineering department old trees and the unique feel of acter into city code.

asked where the new facility should be located. Options included the current location, the Public Works Yard, the Shores site or privately owned existing offices either downtown or in the north commercial zone. All groups favored the current site, or at least the village area. And nearly all were adamant the Shores property should not be considered an option. The Public Works Yard was also undesirable because of its location in the floodway. One group suggested using the old gas station site, property not owned by the city. Options to pay for the new facility, estimated to cost $8 million, included selling city-owned land and/or other assets, longTURN TO CITY HALL ON A25

ENCINITAS — California Senator Mark Wyland honored citizens who enrich their communities through volunteer efforts at an open house in Carlsbad on Tuesday. Among the recipients was Encinitas resident Robin Tarr, who founded the 501 (c) 3 Jonathan Tarr Foundation. Robin established the
foundation in memory of her son, who died in a car accident in 1998. “We’re very touched to be recognized and honored,” Robin said. “It’s so kind.” The foundation has given more than $264,000 in scholarships to underserved students not usually targeted for academic assistance with post-secondary education. Eight others in North
County were honored during the open house. “These volunteers embody the true American spirit and are dedicated stewards of their communities,” Wyland said. “I believe it is important to honor selfless individuals who notice the needs of others and without hesitation, offer a helping hand,” he added.

We were a Nielsen family last week. We received little diaries to fill out, marking when and what we watched on TV for a week. If we recorded a show and watched it later, we wrote that down, too. The first thought that runs through your head when you start filling out the diary is to give the shows you love a boost, even if you went to a movie that night or to a friend’s house. Should I write down what I would have watched? Then I realized, no, it’s my favorite show’s job to keep me from going to the movies when it’s on. Or at least get me to record it. So we were very scrupulous with our diaries. It turns out that other than the nightly news, we don’t really watch much TV at all. I imagine every family watches TV differently: Some people leave it on all day long; others just watch certain shows. We are the others. Sue watches a lot of football; me, I can barely sit through the Super Bowl. Sue watches college football on Saturday, the pros on Sunday and I watch stuff I’ve recorded on Sunday night. There was space at the back of the diary where we could write notes about our viewing habits or comments about television in general. They even said we could use extra sheets of paper if we liked. So I told them this:
Most of what is on television is not just bad — it is toxic. Remember the Miley Cyrus blowup a few months ago on the MTV awards show? The one that did exactly what a publicity stunt is supposed to do — get her tons of free publicity? Ninety-nine percent of the country didn’t even see the show, but that didn’t stop the professional blatherers (all on TV, of course) from giving her all the free publicity one person could stand.
Why is it that TV can get away with things print can’t? There was not a word about the MTV show that aired right before the “awards” show. It’s called “16 and Pregnant,” a longrunning series on MTV which, if you go by the lack of outrage, is just hunkydory. Doesn’t anyone find it odd that if we ran a transcript of the dirty jokes and double entendres on last night’s prime-time sitcoms in the newspaper, people would cancel their subscriptions in droves? Why is it that TV can get away with things print can’t? (Not that we’d want to.) Because money. It is all about advertising money. But let me ask you,
when was the last time you bought something because you saw it advertised on TV? Is that why you bought your car? Because you saw it doing figure eights is a desert? Is that why you bought the food in your fridge? Are you really going to decide what kind of beer to drink because one company’s ads have cute horses and another one’s ads don’t? Do you think there’s a man alive out there who hasn’t heard of Viagra or Cialis? Why are they still advertising? But if advertisers want to throw their money away, television is happy to let them. It turns out a lot of us barely watch television on TV. We watch Netflix movies on our computers; we watch three-minute clips of the late-night shows when our friends post the links on Facebook. When we do actually sit in front of the set, we do it alone, watching something we recorded a month ago. Sitting in the living room watching one show that’s “fun for the whole family” is an idea that went out with floppy discs and mix tapes. And why is it legal for cable and satellite TV to sell us “packages” that charge us for channels we don’t watch? Maybe cable TV companies haven’t noticed what the Internet did to the record, book and newspaper businesses the past few years. But they will. After it’s way too late to save themselves.

by the commission. The boundaries were approved in time to be used in the elections next November. Councilmembers John Masson and Ed Gallo will be up for re-election and Diaz has expressed her interest in running for mayor. Independent Districting Commission Chair Dana Nuesca said that in the beginning, the commission had to convey to the public that they were not there to solve city problems. Instead they had to focus on following strict voting laws and work to incorporate community feedback. She said that ultimately she was very happy to see the process of creating the voting districts work effectively. Vice Chair of the Independent Districting Commission John Valdez expressed that now that the voting districts are established, the residents need to work on getting the community engaged for the next election. “This is just the beginning, and now the real work begins,” he said.

Everything is amazing and nobody is happy
S.D. Academy is presenting ‘The Ash Girl’ THE MOTLEY FOOL INVESTOR ENCINITAS — San Dieguito Academy proudly presents Timberlake Wertenbaker’s “The Ash Girl.” In this eerie re-telling of Cinderella, the play centers around Ashgirl, and all the forces that encourage her demise. Included in these forces are her evil stepfamily, and the seven deadly sins that linger in the forest. Ashgirl finds solace in her warm, safe ashes, but is soon riddled with self-doubt and sadness. This remarkable Cinderella story is about the reigning strength of the human spirit, finding your place, and overall, living happily ever after. The play begins its run Jan. 1 in SDA’s Clayton E. Liggett Theatre. Tickets are $8 for students and $15 for adults and will be sold online at seatyourself.biz/sandieguito.
BY MORGAN HOUSEL Comedian Louis C.K. does a great bit showing how oblivious we can be when complaining about our lives. We get frustrated when our cellphone reception goes out for 30 seconds, without realizing how amazing cellphone technology is. “The worst cellphone in the world is a miracle,” he says. “Why are you so mad at it?” It’s a wise question to ask. When something doesn’t work perfectly but is still much better than it used to be, you are better off. Our perceptions and emotions play an evil trick by convincing us otherwise. “Everything is amazing and nobody is happy,” Louis says. A lot of Americans are in bad shape. Their problems are worse than bad cellphone service. They’re unemployed, uninsured, underpaid, underappreciated, overmedicated and overpromised. But this has always been true. And by most measures, most Americans live in a better, safer, more prosperous world today than they could have dreamed of a few decades ago. Take income. You’ve probably read about how average household incomes have declined since 2000,
adjusted for inflation. It’s a scary statistic. But it needs perspective. The year 2000 was a fantasyland bubble where dynastic wealth could be created with fake dot-com companies in your parents’ basements. Same with the ensuing years, when teenagers became overnight real estate tycoons. Those were the aberrations. Benchmarking success to bubble years gives an inflated sense of reality. If I say the average family earns less today than it did in 2000, it sounds depressing. If I say the average family earns more today than it did in 1995, you get a much different view. Do you remember 1995? It was awesome. We were in awe of how prosperous the country was. Consumer confidence was near a multi-decade high. “Our economy is the healthiest it has been in three decades,” President Clinton said in his State of the Union address that year. “We have the lowest combined rates of unemployment and inflation in 27 years. We have created nearly 8 million new jobs. America is selling more cars than Japan for the first time since the 1970s. And for three years in a row, we have had a record number of new businesses started in our country.” Sounds wonderful. And folks, the average American family earns more today than it did back then, adjusted for inflation. Go ahead, argue that 18 years of near-stagnant real incomes is a failure. I hear you. Just realize that 2.8 billion people around the world earn less than $2 a day, and you’re upset that we aren’t richer than we were when we were already rich and felt like kings. “First-world problems,” as they say. And it’s misleading to say the average household
earns only a little more than it did in the 1990s. It actually earned quite a bit more in total compensation; it’s just that more of its compensation comes from employers paying for evergrowing health insurance premiums. Total compensation per hour — which includes things like health insurance and 401(k) matches — has done great over the last 40 years. What are we getting in return for rising health insurance costs? More life. The average American born in 1950 could expect to live to age 68. The average American born in 2010 can expect to live to almost 79. Think about that: In two generations, the average American gained a decade of life expectancy. Do you know what can happen in a decade? A little more than 10 years ago, AOL dominated the Internet, oil cost $13 a barrel, Fortune magazine named Enron one of America’s “most admired corporations” and Apple was a joke. Everything can change in a decade. And you get an extra one of those now. Odds are this will continue. Biomedical gerontologist Aubrey de Grey thinks the first person to live to see their 150th birthday is already alive. As San Francisco Chronicle columnist Jon Carroll joked, “Americans have come to view death as optional.” The biggest reason life expectancy has gone up is because childhood mortality has plunged, from 32 per 1,000 in 1950, to 19 in 1970, all the way down to six in 2012. How often do we have BREAKING NEWS when stocks fall half a percent? Several times a week. But no one ever says, “Breaking News: Far Fewer Children are Dying Than Used To.” We ignore the really important news because it happens slowly, but we obsess over trivial news because it happens all day long. Not only are fewer children dying, but older
Americans are experiencing something they couldn’t dream about a few decades ago: retirement. We constantly worry about the looming “retirement funding crisis” in America without realizing that the entire concept of retirement is unique to the last five decades. It wasn’t long ago that the average American man had two stages of life: work and death. Even in the nostalgic 1960s, more than 40 percent of men age 65 and over were still working or looking for work. Think of it this way: The average American now retires at age 62. One hundred years ago, the average American died at age 51. Poverty among the elderly has plunged, too. More than a quarter of those over age 65 were living in poverty in the 1960s, compared with less than 10 percent today. Medicare has only been around since the 1960s. Before that, as one 1963 Social Security report put it, “paying for necessary health services and providing adequate insurance for non-budgetable expenses remains beyond the economic capabilities of most aged persons.” As Frederick Lewis Allen wrote in his 1950 book, “The Big Change”: “One out of every four families dependent on elderly people and two out of every three single elderly men and women had to get along in 1948 on less than $20 per week ($188 in today’s dollars).” The job market Americans are retiring from has changed dramatically, too — largely for the better. The workplace has become safer. In 1975, there were nine cases of occupational injuries or illness per 100 full-time workers per year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. By 2009, it was fewer than four. Employers now allow their workers to have a life outside of work, which not long ago was a charming but unrealistic concept.
NowOpen!
According to the Dallas Federal Reserve, the average workweek has declined from 61 hours in 1870, to 48 hours in 1930, to 40 hours in 1950, to 39 hours today. We’re using that extra time to have fun. The average American household now spends three times as much of its income on recreation as it did in the 1950s, according to the Consumer Expenditure Survey. The average employee with five years on the job receives 22 days paid vacation and holiday pay per year, up from 16 days in 1970, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The list goes on and on: — In 1950, the average household spent 30 percent of its budget on food. Today, less than 13 percent of an average budget has to be devoted to food. — High school graduation rates are at the highest level in 40 years. — Traffic deaths per 100,000 people have fallen by half since the 1960s. — The median new home today is 34 percent larger today than it was 25 years ago. — 49 percent of new homes had air conditioning in 1973. Today, 89 percent do. — Nearly 30 percent of Americans over age 25 have a bachelor’s degree. In the 1960s, less than 10 percent did. “Today,” Matt Ridley writes in his book “The Rational Optimist,” “of Americans officially designated as ‘poor,’ 99 percent have electricity, running water, flush toilets and a refrigerator; 95 percent have a television, 88 percent a telephone, 71 percent a car and 70 percent air conditioning. Cornelius Vanderbilt had none of these.” I’m not arguing that inefficiencies, injustices and inequalities don’t exist today. Of course they do. But they always have, and by comparison, we are living in one of the most prosperous times in the history of this world. We have a lot to be thankful for.

Chargers hope McCoy isn’t Gilbride 2.0 JAY PARIS
Barbara Allen was recently inducted in the Women Divers Hall of Fame. For her, diving paved the way for a future career and travels. Photo courtesy of Barbara Allen
Local woman joins diving hall of fame By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — Resident Barbara Allen gained a license to teach scuba diving in 1957. Little did she know, the certification would later open the door to worldwide travels, a career and a lifestyle. And recently, her passion for diving earned her a spot in the Women Divers Hall of Fame. Allen always had an affinity for the water. Growing up in Los Angeles, Saturdays were reserved for the beach. “My parents would pile my brother, myself and anyone in the neighborhood who wanted to go to the beach into the car,” Allen said. We would spend all day body surfing and swimming.” A competitive swimmer, she also lifeguarded at a Los Angeles city pool in high school and college. Although she had never been scuba diving, her boss at the pool saw potential. He encouraged her to take the Los Angeles County Underwater Instructor’s Course in 1957, which required weeks of intense physical and mental training. Allen became only the second woman at the time to complete the course. In the process, she fell in love with scuba diving. She soon found exploring offshore reefs with colorful fish swimming through them gave her a rush. And there was a good vibe to most divers. “I found this kinship with ocean people,” Allen said. “They were just a different breed. They’re very open, positive and often very helpful.” Soon after, she landed a job as a scuba instructor and befriended Bud Browne, a pioneering surf photographer and filmmaker. They traveled to Hawaii and eventually met a who’s who list of surfers and divers. Names like John Severson, who founded Surfer Magazine, stand out in Allen’s mind.
“Hawaii was the place to be at the time,” Allen said. “I met wonderful people who are legends.” After moving to San Diego in the early 1960s, diving led her to another favorite hobby: underwater photography. While working as a secretary at San Diego-based General Atomics and teaching diving on the side, she became active in the fledgling San Diego Underwater Photographic Society. Famous photographers like Ron Church were also a part of the club, and their influence rubbed off on Allen. Not long after, she won club awards for her pictures of sea life and marine topography. Her underwater photography skills were put to good use in 1964, when she visited Cabo San Lucas, Mexico — a trip she remembers well. The clear, undisturbed water offered glimpses of turtles, exotic fish and black coral. Toting a camera in waterproof housing, she captured the ideal conditions. “It was 60 feet visibility with 75 degree water — it was wonderful,” Allen said. In 1967, she joined a Westinghouse ocean research laboratory team in San Diego. One of the team’s first studies involved surveying and photographing plants and marine life in kelp beds offshore of Del Mar, La Jolla and Point Loma. They even went as far as Key West, Fla., to monitor how a water outfall near a power plant impacted flora and fauna. At a conference in Long Beach, Allen demonstrated Westinghouse’s new semiclosed circuit, mixed-gas rebreather — a technology advance that allowed divers more time to examine deep reefs. Allen said diving has changed over the years, largely because of the equipment. In the late 1950s and early TURN TO DIVING ON A25
If you squint just right,it’s not a pretty sight. Mike McCoy? Kevin Gilbride? McCoy? Gilbride? The Chargers wrestle with the visiting New York Giants on Sunday, and why do I think Gilbride when someone shouts “G-Men?” Seeing Gilbride diagram plays as the Giants’ offensive coordinator brings back memories. Some of them are painful, especially if you’re Gilbride’s poodle. Now before we get to the Chargers playing like mutts — losers of four of their last five; in a race to the AFC West bottom with the Raiders — let’s remember when Gilbride was hired by the Bolts in 1997. And I recall the day he was canned by ex-general manager Bobby Beathard. Gilbride, a noted hotshot offensive wizard, was fired after 22 games. That news brought with it a call to Gilbride’s Alpine home. Mrs. Gilbride answered and informed me her unemployed husband was walking their poodle, and with Mr. Gilbride never returning the message, you hope the little guys’ paws are holding up. Which circles us back to McCoy, and it doesn’t require that long of a leash to yank him into this tale. McCoy, like Gilbride, had never been an NFL head coach. McCoy, like Gilbride, was a sizzling commodity on the offseason coaching carousel. McCoy had Denver quarterback Peyton Manning playing well to pad his resume.Gilbride leaned on star Jacksonville
quarterback Mark Brunell. McCoy, like Gilbride, has the Chargers (5-7) playing consistently inconsistent. The Chargers pray the similarities end there. Gilbride didn’t make it through two seasons as the Chargers’ savior. Of course he was saddled with quarterback Ryan Leaf, and bringing peace to the Middle East is easier than getting Leaf on track. But in dusting off mental snapshots of Gilbride, we’re reminded of how inexact of a science this head-coaching business is. Gilbride, back then, was a sensational candidate and obviously won the interview with Beathard. While Beathard was often snookered when reaching for college players, his work in hiring coaches, at that time, included selecting an unknown like Joe Gibbs in Washington and giving Bobby Ross his San Diego shot — and we know how both turned out. That Beathard went with Gilbride after chasing Ross away is a column for another day. But what’s clear, on this day, is that the jury remains out on McCoy. The Chargers had a groove going earlier this year, beating up on second-tier squads and shocking the Colts and Cowboys. But there has been little giddy-up at Chargers Park of late, with the team in a free fall as it watches a dwindling fan base, well, dwindle more. The Raiders have the Black Hole and the Chargers offer the Black Out Hole. Last Sunday’s loss to the Bengals was no-dice for local TV and this Sunday’s game has a dark cloud over it, too.This after half of the Chargers’ home games were given the static treatment last year.
McCoy is not only a rookie NFL head coach, but a newbie at any level. His mistakes have been many, whether it’s play calling, clock management, game-day roster decisions or his uncomfortable relationship with the media, as he spouts one cliche after another. We’re not suggesting McCoy is another Gilbride. What we’re saying is that no one knows whether McCoy is the next Sean Payton or Gilbride 2.0. McCoy is obviously sharp with the offense, but the same was once said of Gilbride. Gilbride, to be fair, does have two Super Bowl trophies to show for his work in the Big Apple. But taking a successful
bite out of this head-coaching entree is tricky. Many a confident coach has bellied up to the buffet, only to have his bosses soon reaching for the Tums. Gilbride went 6-16 before being shown the door, where his pet poodle was patiently waiting. McCoy is far from there, but it would behoove him to quickly fetch a win, and in that regard, Sunday can’t get here fast enough.

S PORTS ‘Too many mistakes’ cost Chargers a win By Tony Cagala
SAN DIEGO — This Chargers game was one defined by critical penalties and drive-killing turnovers. “Too many mistakes,” Chargers head coach Mike McCoy said after the 17-10 loss at Qualcomm Stadium against the Cincinnati Bengals. “Way too many mistakes overall,” he said. “You can’t beat a good football team playing the way we did,” McCoy added. The locker room appeared a collage of disappointment, and was rife with quotes all in the similar vein of “We didn’t make enough

plays,” or “We didn’t finish drives;” “We’ve got to be more consistent.” With a 5-7 record, their playoff hopes are still alive, though, at this point McCoy isn’t looking that far ahead. “We’re going to worry about next week,” he said. “You have to take it one week at a time. You can’t worry about four or five games down the road. You have to worry about this next one. We can’t control anything else.” Quarterback Philip Rivers completed 23 of 37 passes for 252 yards with one touchdown and one intercepAbove: Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton hands the ball off in their 17-10 win against the Chargers on Sunday.

tion. The running game amassed only 91 yards without any touchdowns. “When you’re playing a good defense like that, you can’t score 10 points and win in this league very often,” Rivers said. “They’ve got good linebackers that tackle and really run; and the secondary is a very experienced group that plays well. I thought we played well; we just weren’t consistent enough.” The turnovers did hurt, he said, be they had some opportunities. One of the three turnovers came midway into the fourth quarter on a short pass from Rivers to rookie wide receiver Keenan Allen. Fighting for extra yards, Allen was hit; the ball came loose and it was recovered by the Bengals.
Allen said that definitely cannot happen, especially when they’re this close to their season ending. Eric Weddle made his first interception on Sunday, catching a wayward pass from Bengals’ quarterback Andy Dalton in the second quarter intended for receiver A.J. Green. It was Weddle’s 17th career interception. Losing four out of the last five games, making the playoffs may seem an uphill battle. “We’ve got four (games) to go, and we’re going to play all four of them,” Rivers said. During halftime, the Chargers inducted the 1963 AFL Championship team into their Ring of Honor. The Chargers next face the New York Giants Sunday at Qualcomm.
CAMP PENDLETON — Military and civilian football players gathered to play in the annual Buddy Bowl to support military charities and share their love of the game Nov. 30. The bowl opened with the national anthem and a formal thank you to military troops, law enforcement personnel and their families for their service. “The opening ceremonies are emotional for me,” Erik Benitez, military veteran and Pop Warner coach, said. “I’ve had friends who were injured or lost. It’s awesome how some guys don’t miss a beat. And how these guys have a love for country and service.” Flag football fields were set up at the 11 area athletic fields, where Marine, Navy and civilian players formed teams and faced off. The bowl is open to all levels of players from kids’ Pop Warner teams to elite adult league players. Seven on seven teams are organized the day of the bowl
based on player turnout. Games are 24 minutes, which allows teams to play three or more games in the bracket playoff tournament. “There are different brackets all based on ability,” Nico Marcolongo, Buddy Bowl organizer and retired Marine, said. “Elite teams are very experienced flag football players who are in organized leagues and tour in high level competitions.” “It’s fun,” Marcolongo added. “The higher level teams are more competitive, but overall it’s very friendly.” Challenged athletes are also welcome. “It’s an opportunity for them to get out and prove to themselves they can do things they did pre-injury,” Marcolongo said. “It’s very humbling hearing the stories of the troops and what they’ve been through,” Marcolongo added. “To see them smiling and having a good time is an honor.” The goal of the event is to raise funds to support local military charities. Players are asked to make a $20 to $40 donation, but no one is excluded from playing. Marcolongo said funds raised go to local nonprofits that benefit military and law enforcement personnel. Funds from this year’s Camp Pendleton bowl will be donated to Operation Rebound challenged athletes foundation to help supply sports equipment and pay travel costs of military veterans in the program. Another big benefit of the game is that it allows civilians to spend a day playing football with military neighbors. Marcolongo said it is a great opportunity for civilians and military to connect. “It’s not just support,” Marcolongo said. “The community comes out and actively participates with them, sweats TURN TO BUDDY BOWL ON A25

Opening day, crowds and Nanook Youth flag CHRIS AHRENS Sea Notes I don’t recall when or why the term “opening day” was coined, but it was an agreed upon day when Swami’s broke, and the beach breaks closed out, and were left unridden until May. If memory serves, one criterion for opening day was that the waves needed to be ridden from outside Swami’s at least to the lifeguard tower. Opening day usually occurred right around Thanksgiving when the Aleutian pump was turned on for the season. Those first swells ripped the sand off
the reef and gave Swami’s its classic hourglass figure, something that surfers up down the California Coast forever hope to caress. I am writing this on a “black” Friday morning after Thanksgiving, just past the peak of a decent, but quickly tapering two-day north/west swell. As I arrived ready to surf, I was quickly repelled by more than 50 surfers, a handful of SUPs and half a dozen kayakers, all competing for the three or four set waves that pushed through every 15 minutes or so. The surf was pretty good, but the tide was high, and most waves rolled into mush until the shore break where some of North County’s best gremmies made the most of them. While some of the sets were, arguably, big enough
to put them in the opening day category, I didn’t see anyone come close to clearing the lifeguard tower. Maybe at low tide, the waves would acquire more teeth and distance. Then again, the swell was dropping fast and a draining tide could have worked against us. While not overly impressed with the surf, I was highly impressed with the surfers’ attitudes, as kayakers and shortboarders complemented each other’s waves while waiting to rinse off in the shower. This is something that would never have happened in the in the ‘70s, when one poor kayaker braved Swami’s alone. I never did know his name but we called him Nanook, after Nanook of The North, the great Eskimo famed for paddling his seal-
skin kayak in search of food, in the frozen north. Our Nanook was nothing like him, and I am kind of embarrassed to say we did not welcome him or his wavedevouring machine in the lineup. Even then I felt bad about the way we treated him, and would like to apologize if I ever see him again. Then again, one of his species owes an apology to me. It was during a stellar opening day over a decade ago. I waited until the wave hit the reef perfectly, dropped in and came off the bottom, watching the translucent carpet wall up all the way to Cardiff Reef. At full speed, negotiating the connection section, I saw a lone kayaker, stroking frantically in from the channel. With the wave still hov-
ering at well overhead, he swooped down and turned, nearly spinning out as his massive boat barely missed me and his wake caused me to fall. As I returned to the surface, I found my board floating near me. Paddling back out, I heard the kayaker brag to someone, “Did you see my wave?” That was the last time I felt up to the challenge of mixing it up with a wavestarved, opening day crew at Swami’s. Still, I am content to remember a thousand good waves and watch as surfers and paddlers and kayakers share a nice north/west swell, opening day or not.

Flowers can be more than just a pretty smell KENT HORNER Local Roots Last July, more than 130,000 people visited the U.S. Botanic Garden in Washington D.C. Out of those, many came just to see a single flower. It was the bloom of the titan arum. Originating in Indonesia, it is one of the most unique and largest flowers in the world. Notable not only for its size, which practically doubles the overall height of the plant from 4 to 8 feet, this flower also takes so much energy to produce that 10 years must pass before it can reach maturity. Interestingly enough though, it stinks: The titan arum’s blossom is known as the “corpse flower,” because it reeks of rotting flesh. Most scientists will tell you tell you that the fragrance of a flower is its means of sexual reproduction. By attracting insects or animals to the flower, the chances of pollination goes up dramatically. But isn’t it a bit more
complicated than that? Who would think that rotting flesh would be a great draw to a plant? Typical pollinators like the bees and the birds or larger animals love sweet smelling flowers. They head directly to the subsequent nectar waiting there. These sugar lovers are not attracted by the smell of death and feces, but many other bugs like flies and beetles are. Mother nature always finds a way… Not all creatures are beneficial. A second use for floral scents is just the opposite: repellence. Poison oak is one I’m acquainted with. Large swarms of ants can easily destroy plant tissues and vascular systems. Bees can punch holes in the backs of flowers. Many plants will use offensive odors to keep the undesirable creatures at bay. In fact, a flower’s scent can act as a training mechanism. A creature drawn to the flower by its scent may not be as gung ho for the flower as it is the delicious nectar found there. It has learned to associate the fragrance with a food source and links it to the nectar for future nourishment. Some creatures like bears have a sense of smell 700 mil-
lion times more acute than humans and can detect a fragrance miles away. In this case, not only can a scent be considered a “billboard” advertising a good meal, it is also a way point or “fragrance map” leading the way. Finally, there is one more hypothesis to explain the importance of floral scents in nature. Charles Darwin originally pointed out that many pollinators flit between the flowers of different species. This increases the chance that its genetic traits will be passed on to an unrelated species and produce a hybrid offspring. Well, hybridization in the plant kingdom has an upside and it has a downside. Hybrids are usually new plants that can’t self-reproduce. Scent guarantees a more selective breeding since the pollinating creatures will be
drawn to the same plants and stay away from any other competitors. Pretty interesting, but it gets a little Darwinian. I just like how some plants smell and feel as I walk by them. You should know your plants with your breath and your hands.This is truly part of the connection to your garden. In the coastal communities, the weather is mild enough to introduce many types of small trees and shrubs that will give you back something other than dry leaves. When you set your plant palate for an overall good design, it’s very important to think about what your plants will crescendo to. Even more importantly, how they will affect you with a strong scent. Many of my plant selections come from my memory. As we grow, the experience we have as children are

etched indelibly in the brain. When they are powerful moments, we also remember the particular smells that came along or were present at the time and associate them with that memory. Melaleuca nesophila does it for me. Memory wise. The tea oil in the leaves is a very pungent fragrance that is easily recognizable. I used to breath it deep as a kid walking the ramp down to Pipes during the summers. With scent, those feelings of time and space in the memory remain.

L-3 Communications, PHOTONICS operates a facility located at 5957 Landau Court, Carlsbad, CA 92008 that uses and emits chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. We do not believe that any person is exposed to these chemicals at levels constituting a health or safety risk. However, we have not made a formal determination that actual exposure levels are below the Proposition 65 "no significant risk" levels for carcinogens or "no observable effect" level for chemicals known to cause reproductive harm, and we have not performed a risk analysis to determine the precise amount of exposure that any individual would receive over a 70-year period. Proposition 65 therefore obligates us to provide this warning to potentially effected individuals. Further information may be obtained by contacting L3 Communications, PHOTONICS at 760-431-6800.

He was recently awarded the title of Noncommissioned Officer of the Quarter. When the 24-year-old arrived, the armory was in disarray. He accounted for all the equipment. Cleaning more than 300 weapons, he ensured each one functions properly, and secured his role as lead armorer for the battalion. “Anything that has to happen concerning the armory, and I mean anything at all, is handled by him. That in itself, is a big responsibility,” said Sgt. Ryan Stites, ordinance maintenance chief, CLB-15, CLR-17, 1st MLG, who selected Dehorta to compete for NCO of the quarter. In addition to his job, Dehorta consistently seeks self-improvement. “I am the first person in my family to graduate high school and the first person in my family to join the military,” said Dehorta, a Homestead, Fla., native. “I joined the Marines, seeking

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

MORE THAN JUST A DANCE Filmmaker’s directorial debut shows what hula is from the inside out By Tony Cagala
Jolee Pink, author of Living Coastal: Inspirations for Entertaining, Decorating and Cooking California Style Photo courtesy of Mike Pawlenty/Chefs Press
Celebrating ocean-inspired art and cuisine KAY COLVIN A Brush With Art Encinitas artist/designer Jolee Pink thrives on creative challenges — the bigger the better. In her innovative new book Living Coastal: Inspirations for Entertaining, Decorating and Cooking California Style, she masterfully elevates the dining experience and shapes trendsetting tablescapes by merging art and cuisine. The fusion of culinary and artistic talent brings San Diego’s community of artists and chefs together to celebrate the spirit of the Pacific Ocean. Published by Chefs Press, the 112-page book presents 16 different oceaninspired themes for special occasions. Pink comments, “Part art book,part cookbook, Living Coastal is a unique mix of tantalizing seafood recipes, extraordinary artistic creations, eco table linens and clever decorating tips to inspire your next celebration. Mike Pawlenty’s visually stunning photography brings the book to life.” Pink adds, “It was fascinating interpreting what motivated the chefs and artists to pursue their passion - how life experiences and creative inspiration came into play.” Eighteen featured chefs share enticing recipes using sustainable seafood and fresh local produce. Examples are Maine Diver Scallops and Baja Prawns by Bernard Guillas of The Marine Room, Sockeye Salmon Benedict on Cheese and Chive Biscuits by Matt Gordon of Solace & The Moonlight Lounge, and Lobster Ceviche by Tim Johnson of Zenbu. Living Coastal’s decorating themes have a distinctly coastal vibe. In each case the ocean-evocative table linens are Pink’s own designs.
In selecting other elements for her book Pink approached the table as a composition balancing color, form and texture. She chose a diverse group of artists working in a wide range of mediums including ceramic, glass, metal, paints and succulents. The artists incorporated oceanic colors and imagery in their work created for the book. Many of the artists are familiar to readers, such as Matthew Antichevich, sculptor of Cardiff’s iconic “Magic Carpet Ride” (a.k.a. “The Cardiff Kook”), and Mark Patterson of Surfing Madonna mosaic fame.Grace Swanson’s intricate gourds make a cameo appearance along with Lemongrass Center owner Tara Teipel’s appealing succulent design. Other featured artists include Danny Salzhandler, Cheryl Tall, Elon Ebanks, Mike Totah Charles Bronson, Garry Cohen, James Stone, Lea de Wit; Donna Butnik, Kathleen McCord, Julie Ann Stricklin, Karen Athens and Britton Neubacher. Jolee Pink is no stranger to creativity. Having grown up primarily on the West Coast in San Francisco, Seattle and San Diego, she had an innate appreciation of the ocean and environment. With a bachelor’s degree in art from UCLA and a master’s in telecommunications and Film from SDSU, she began her artistic career as a graphic designer and later added hand-sculpted clay to her creative repertoire. After relocating to Encinitas, in 2008 she started Wabisabi Green,an innovative artisanal quality, eco-friendly home decor and gifts company featuring graphically bold designs for green living. The modern collection of brightly colored decorative throw pillows and table linens reflect the Southern California lifestyle and are a testament to Pink’s commitment to sustainability. The products are made of the best organic and sustainable mateTURN TO BRUSH WITH ART ON A27
To say that Keo Woolford was surprised by the amount of success his directorial debut has been receiving would be a bit of an understatement. A word more fitting — “overwhelming,” says Woolford, the Hawaiian native who also wrote the screenplay. Since Woolford began showing his film, “The Haumana,” it’s been earning several awards from film festivals around the country. “The Haumana” tells the story of a Hawaiian luau host who reconnects with the dance and culture he once left behind when he takes over as the teacher for a high school hula class. The story is partly autobiographical, based on things that Woolford, an accomplished dancer, actor and musician, has experienced and observed as a hula dancer and as somebody from the Hawaiian culture. He directed the film in 18 days on “micro, micro budget,” in Hawaii, working 12 to 14 hours a day, he said. “And the community, when they got wind of this, just

Third time’s the charm? Black Crowes reunite for a third time hoping to find new music By Alan Sculley
The Black Crowes have been in the midst of a second reunion since the start of this year. The last time the group reconvened, it produced two studio albums and multiple live releases. Singer Chris Robinson hopes this third time around will result in new music. But he isn’t making any promises, noting in fact, that he plans to be busy next year with his solo group, the Chris Robinson Band, which already has a new album finished and ready for release. “We don’t have any plans past December,” Robinson said in a recent teleconference interview. “It’s just typical Black Crowes world. So we (the Black Crowes) won’t be on the road next year or anything. But that hopefully will open a window for us during a busy CRB (the Chris Robinson Band) schedule to hopefully get to some new music.” The fact that this year’s touring has yet to turn into concrete plans to enter a

recording studio doesn’t mean this latest reunion has been anything less that a success, Robinson said. “We’re still just kind of scratching our heads wondering why everyone’s getting along so well,” Robinson said. As that last comment suggests, the Black Crowes have had a good share of conflict over a career that dates back to the late 1980s, when Robinson, his brother, guitarist Rich, and drummer Steve Gorman formed the group. Following in the grand tradition of other battling rock and roll brothers (such as Phil and Don Everly of the Everly Brothers and Ray and Dave Davies of the Kinks), Chris and Rich Robinson have been famous for butting heads over the years. The numerous personnel changes that have occurred are another sign that life in the Black Crowes has been less than harmonious at times. Today’s lineup includes the group’s seventh guitarist, Jackie Greene, third bassist,
Sven Pipien (who has been in and out of the lineup a couple of times) and third keyboardist, Adam MacDougall, to go with the Robinson brothers and Gorman. At this point, the quality of the Black Crowes experience drives when and for how long the band reconvenes. “When we decided to take a hiatus three years ago, part of the mentality of that was to make a kind of an adult reasonable decision about our lives,” Robinson said. “We were not in a very good place as people or friends or family or band mates or whatever. And that’s what happens. “So yes, I mean, I kind of see the future of the Black Crowes as kind of being we do it when we feel like doing it,” he said. “And it’s something that I don’t think that maybe in your youth and especially in the ‘90s when you’re selling millions and millions and millions of records and you’re responsible for all this income and intrigue to like these labels and corporations and
stuff that’ll really put a wrench in the works. And on some levels, you become a slave to that kind of system or routine, whether you know it or not.” In the first phase of its career, success certainly was a big part of the Black Crowes story. The group enjoyed outof-the-box popularity with its 1990 debut album, which went triple platinum behind four hit singles. The 1992 second album, “The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion,” was another huge hit, spawning four number one rock singles. The band’s level of success dipped after that, but the albums “Amorica,” “Three Snakes and One Charm,’ “By Your Side” and “Lions,” still enjoyed decent sales. But by the time of “Lions,” the group had been through several lineup changes, had scrapped a pair of albums, and having had its share of tensions and burnout, decided to go on hiatus.

pink dye, which mimicked sewage, circulates in water. Other environmental studies followed. And she later held a variety of careers in diving, including issuing and monitoring lagoon boating permits part time for the city of Carlsbad. She hasn’t been on a dive in five years, but has especially warm memories of long trips through the South Pacific. In 1986, for instance, she surfed and dove quite a bit during a yearlong jaunt through Australia in a van.
Thanks to a network of oceanography contacts built up over the years, she had plenty of offers of places to stay and access to spare diving equipment. According to the website for the Women Divers Hall of Fame, the organization includes, “The most notable women leaders and innovators in the diving community.” Being inducted is “icing on the cake,” Allen said. “It’s special to be recognized among your peers as a pioneer,” she said.
had requested that,” Peak said. “But they did not request that.” “It was my understanding that everything would be looked at,” Mayor Mike Nichols said. “It doesn’t make sense to do some things and not others. They read what was being proposed. We thought they would do the work and analyze everything.” Fletcher Cove Community Center is a 1935 Civilian Conservation Corps barracks on Pacific Avenue with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean. It is used for community meetings and classes and was once available for private celebrations that occasionally disrupted the adjacent neighborhood with loud music, traffic and overconsumption of alcohol. The parties stopped more than a decade ago when the building started crumbling. But after a renovation project was completed in 2011, residents sought to use the facility again for private celebrations. Those living near the facility set out to avoid repeating history. They worked with city officials and community members who wanted to use the center for weekend celebrations — many of them donors to the $370,000 renovation effort — to work out a compromise. Most issues were
resolved except alcohol consumption, which isn’t allowed at any city facility. Council members were set to make the final decision in June but when it was obvious there wouldn’t be consensus, they tabled the discussion. That prompted a group of residents called Friends of Fletcher Cove Community Center to gather signatures for a citizen initiative so voters could decide what events could take place at the center. To avoid a $200,000 special election, City Council adopted a 14-month trial use policy, but those behind the initiative said it was too restrictive so they submitted the petitions. Council’s choices were to call for the election or adopt the policy, which they say is flawed. “In my opinion the report is very thorough and clear,” said Mary Jane Boyd, a member of Friends of Fletcher Cove.“The council is trying to cover themselves and not take responsibility for the decision they made to call for a special election.” Nichols said he is not blaming any of the attorneys for what the council considers an “inaccurate and incomplete report.” “How we got here is irrelevant,” he said. “There are impacts that need to be identified that the public needs to be aware of.”

period. Glenn Pruim, Encinitas’ director of Public Works and Engineering, said the site needed drainage work on certain days due to the dynamic nature of construction. However, the days were spaced out over several months. It’s unfair to draw the conclusion the city was out of compliance for much of the fall and winter, he said. Pruim said the city reported the initial Dec. 13, 2012 discharge to the regional water control board shortly after it occurred. “We did the right thing,” Pruim said. “And we notified the contractor to make the changes and get the site back into compliance. There may have been other periods for a day or two where things weren’t in compliance. But we were constantly working with the contractor, and the contractor was working with us to get the site in compliance.” Further, the city and USS Cal Builders were implementing stormwater controls laid out by a statelicensed consultant, he said. “If those were inappropriate, it’s hard to see why the city would be liable for that,” Pruim said. Stewart said the site now has adequate drainage basins and other flood control measures. And she noted there’s no estimate of how much sediment flowed into the lagoon during the two discharges.

flower growing. To meet environmental standards, the city buried the soil below the site and covered it in geo-fabric netting during grading. Stewart said the water board is confident the contaminated soil was buried deep enough to prevent it from flowing into the waterways during the two discharges, and during future rain events. However, the city and USS Cal Builders didn’t take samples of the discharges. If they had done so, that would have put residents’ fears to rest, she said. “If either the City or USS Cal Builders had done the required monitoring during the discharge event, that would have been proof that the contaminated soil was indeed mitigated properly,” she said. Doug Gibson, a wetlands ecologist, and who is the executive director of the nonprofit San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy, said there isn’t evidence so far of large quantities of sediment affecting the lagoon. The group will continue to monitor it, though. Even if the sediment doesn’t result in negative impacts, it “doesn’t let them off the hook,” Gibson said. “We hope the city and others take this as a learning opportunity about drainage,” Gibson said. He added that restoration efforts near the mouth of the lagoon, like planting native vegetation, could absorb any potential sediment that’s still in Rossini Creek. Gibson hopes the city will contribute. “Our goal is to work collaboratively with the city,”
Gibson said. The city has the option of paying the full fine, entering into a settlement or taking part in a public hearing in which the San Diego Water Board can affirm, reject or modify the fine. If Encinitas is ordered to pay a fine, USS Cal Builders could also have to pay a portion of it. A representative from the company could not be reached for comment by press time. A decision on how to proceed is due by Dec. 23. The City Council will give direction on how to respond to the complaint in closed session next week. Councilman Tony Kranz said he was “disappointed” upon hearing about the park sediment flowing into the waterways. “It concerns me a lot — the environment is one of the most important things we have to protect,” Kranz said. Kranz said he looks forward to all parties involved laying out the details of what occurred. He added that he anticipates the item being discussed in open session. Rossini Creek runs through resident Eleanor Musick’s backyard. On Dec. 13, she captured a video showing the normally clear water transformed brown from the sediment. “It was so different — it was alarming,” Musick said. The creek dried up earlier this year, drawing the attention of some residents, who pointed to the park’s construction as the likely culprit. Stewart said no evidence at this time has been found to support that view.
Sullivan said. Tom McGreal agreed. “We can’t use pay-as-you-go,” he said. “It’s too much money. We could lift a burden off our shoulders with a private/public partnership.” Other than agreeing with what shouldn’t be done, there wasn’t much consensus among the groups as to how to fund the project, although most said they support a private/public partnership and financing. There was also general support for selling minor city assets only. Implementation choices were to move into an existing
space, build a new facility and then move into it in a one-step process or move to an interim location, decide the direction and then move. Again, there was little consensus other than opposing any moves until a plan has been approved. A full report is scheduled to be presented during the Dec. 9 council meeting. “I think we can afford a new City Hall,” Councilman Don Mosier said. “I think we want to keep this plan simple. … We can debate when to move forward but I think the time is now.

He said he didn’t have a chance to read it thoroughly before the meeting and wasn’t feeling well. After returning home and rereading the report he said he had concerns that some conclusions “may not have been based on the actual facts and there were issues that were not considered.” He asked that the item be discussed at the Nov. 20 meeting so he could voice those concerns publicly.

Right now, Newsom and Harris are talking only about seeking reelection.

It’s also possible former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, an ex-Assembly speaker who never hid his yen to become governor, might enter. The only office now being openly contested among Democrats is secretary of state, California’s top election officer. Two termed-out state senators, Alex Padilla of Los Angeles

There could be a considerable shift in the likely Democratic lineup if Brown opts out and others try to move up. The sorry state of California’s Republican Party, with fewer than 30 percent of all registered voters, now means there are not yet any formidable Republican entrants in races for the downthe-ticket offices where some Democrats plan to lurk while awaiting their chance to become governor.

JEAN GILLETTE Small Talk
New holiday tradition is going to the elves It’s time to break out all the Christmas traditions, stories, fables and such, and it makes me wish I still had little ones. I inherited an entire box of my childhood Christmas books and my kids loved them, too. I think they were more excited about dragging that box down than about the presents to come. OK. I was too. Under the heading of, “Dang! Why didn’t I think of that?” is Elf on the Shelf. Some very funny stories are circulating among my young mother friends about this marketing genius of a Christmas tale. One friend found it on sale after Christmas last year and broke it out last weekend. After explaining all the details about what the elf can allegedly do and see, she added that you are supposed to name it. Her daughter thought this was such a good idea that after naming her elf, she decided that she needed to name the Wise Men in the crèche as well. Their names? Blue Sky, Hot Fire and Hot Fire II. It made perfect sense to her. Meanwhile, in another quarter, one mother of three active boys is grinding her teeth for ever starting the elf thing. She is far too busy this year to fuss with moving the thing around every night and is ready to throttle the next person who sends her a Pinterest pin showing another adorable way to set it up. Another reminisced that her child’s elf, dubbed “Fondo,” stayed in the same spot (way high up on a beam) until Valentine’s Day. Having done the bulk TURN TO SMALL TALK ON B15

FARMING OUT INVESTORS How new SEC rules are helping one retail farming business to sprout By Tony Cagala
VISTA — On the 4.6acre dirt lot where Dan Gibbs is standing, there’s not much to look at save for weeds, a lone shrub and a couple of squirrels scurrying into holes in the ground. But Gibbs can see clearly the growing potential (literally) of the lot on East Vista Way. “The driveway will be right here,” he said, gesturing near where he stands. “We’ll have a 2,100 square foot retail store, and then a 53,000 square foot greenhouse behind it.” By next spring he plans to begin planting and in the summer open the very first Home Town Farms in the heart of the city, which will give people a chance to buy locally-grown, vine ripened and organic food at nonorganic, everyday pricing. Gibbs, the 50-year-old CEO of Home Town Farms, estimates that he and his business partner Mike Castro will be able to produce around half-a-million pounds of vegetables and berries per year, using a

technique called urban vertical growing. He described the technique as a “high-efficiency growing system,” that’s used on millions of acres all over the world. It’s a technique that’s been around for about 50 years, he said, but what they’re doing is scaling down how it’s being used worldwide specifically to fit within the urban city environment. “There’s no more economical way to grow vegetables and berries than this model,” he said. “So I think once people find out that
this is doable, most vegetable and berry production is going to come into the city; and outside the city farming is going to be your field crops, your tree crops.” Not only is their growing model something that may soon gain attention, but also how Gibbs is getting the Home Town Farms business venture off the ground.

REGION — Army Sgt. Odin Ayala and Marine Cpl. Travis Greene are both military veterans and double amputees who have a long life ahead of them. To help ease the challenges these young veterans face, Homes for Our Troops is providing each veteran with a forever adapted home. The veterans were given the keys to their new homes in El Cajon on Dec. 2. “These homes are presented to them as gifts mortgage free,” Jennifer Reed, manager of public relations and marketing for Homes for Our Troops, said. “There is no way to put into words how grateful individuals are with the opportunity to move forward.” Ayala was on his third deployment when he lost both of his legs in an IED blast in Kandahar, Afghanistan, on Sept. 14, 2011. He continues to receive treatments and therapies at Balboa Naval Medical Center. And would like to return to school and earn a master’s degree in Engineering. “Receiving an accessible home from Homes for Our Troops will help me focus on my recovery and my future,” Ayala said. “Thank you for making my life and the lives of so many of our injured warriors easier.” Greene lost both of his legs in an IED blast in Ramadi, Iraq, Dec. 7, 2005. He spent close to two years in the hospital being treated for his injuries. “Not having to worry financially about providing such a home for my wife and family and gaining freedom because of it will be life changing,” Greene said. Ayala and Greene have been closely involved in the process of designing their new homes for the past two years. Homes for Our Troops builds adapted homes for severely injured veterans from the ground up. Veterans apply to the nonprofit for support. Then they are interviewed to ensure they are ready to take on the responsibility of homeownership. Once they are part of the program they attend a seminar on finance and
homeownership responsibilities. Most are first-time homeowners. “The average age of our veterans is in their early to mid 20s,” Reed said. Armed with homeownership knowledge they select the U.S. city where they would like to live and approve the lot where their forever home will be built. Home layout and finishes are up to the veteran. “It’s a partnership,” Reed said. “They choose where they want to live. We identify suitable lots. They accept the lot purchase. We do the building.” Homes are built for veterans’ needs now and in the future. They are large enough to accommodate a growing family. And include wide halls and doorways that are wheelchair accessible. Other features are roll under kitchen countertops, ranges and sinks, pull down shelves and roll in showers with temperature gauges. There are also automatic opening doors and lift systems built in. Homes for Our Troops was founded by building contractor John Gonsalves in 2004. Touched by a news story about a veteran who had lost both of his arms and was returning home to Massachusetts, Gonsalves set out to build a home for the veteran and found out there was no nonprofit group providing that service. He went on to establish Homes for Our Troops as a nonprofit. Reed said Homes for Our Troops has evolved and improved its services to help veterans since it began, including encouraging veterans to pursue their goals of education, career and family. “It absolutely astounds me the spirit these guys have,” Reed said. “They positively embraced the new life they have and try to make the best of it.” The need for adapted housing for recent military veterans is currently at about 1,700 homes and with ongoing military combat that need continues to grow. Nationwide the average cost to purchase land and build an adapted home is $430,000. Homes for Our Troops currently builds and gifts about 40 homes a year.

Santa parachutes into town By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — It is an annual sight that never gets old. Some 2,000 people gathered at Mission Marketplace to watch as Santa Claus and two holiday helpers parachuted down into the shopping center on Nov. 30.
Santa and his helpers parachuted from 4,500 feet above the marketplace. As the tiny red dot in the air nears, Santa makes his way safely to the ground and high fives the crowd before settling in to take photos with the kids. “It’s always great fun to see the
kids and snow,” Bob James, of Just In Time Skydivers, said. “It’s what Santa is all about.” NewMark Merrill Companies sponsors the free afternoon of family fun, which includes 5 tons of snow, a train ride, a puppet show, live music and a petting zoo. Many families look forward to attending the event as their holiday tradition. “It’s definitely the holiday spirit,” Cynthia Gonzalez, marketing director for NewMark Merrill Companies, said.“It’s our way to give back to the community for their patronage throughout the year.”

ODD FILES BY CHUCK SHEPHERD Something in the Air Is the signature smell of Texas A&M University more “Italian lemon, bergamot and iced pineapple” (that open into “a body of vivid florals, raw nutmeg and cinnamon”) or more “bat feces” and “chilifest stink”? The two commentaries were contrasted in a November Wall Street Journal report on the introduction of Masik Collegiate Fragrances’ Texas A&M cologne (one of 17 Masik college clients) at around $40 for a 1.7-ounce bottle. Louisiana State University’s scent conjures up, insisted one grad, the campus’s oak trees, but so far has pulled in only $5,500 for the school. (To a football rival of LSU, the school’s classic smell is less oak tree than “corn dog.”) The apparent gold standard of fan fragrance is New York Yankees cologne, which earned the team nearly $10 million in 2012. (Wall Street Journal, 11-9-2013) Recurring Themes Among America’s most prolific “fathers” (in this case, perhaps better considered “egg-fertilizers”) are Nathaniel Smith, age 39, who claimed on TV’s “Divorce Court” in September that he is the father of 27, and the late Samuel Whitney, whose grown stepdaughter Lexie Woods learned that he claimed 54 before he died in July at age 87. Smith (known in Dayton, Ohio, as “Hustle Simmons”) insisted that he is a fine father (doesn’t smoke or drink, keeps contact with most of the kids, has “only” 21 child-support orders out), and besides, he told WHIOTV, “I know of people who have even more than me.” (Among Whitney’s belongings, said Woods, were a “pile” of birth certificates and a stash of maximumstrength Viagra. “He was a likable man, a ladies’ man.”) (WHIO-TV, 9-10-2013) (Arizona Republic, 8-24-2013; New York Daily News, 8-272013) Recurring Themes Some Americans still believe that stock market sales are typically made human-to-human, but the vast majority of buys and sells now are made automatically by computers, running pattern-detecting programs designed to execute millions of trades, in some cases, less than one second before rival computer programs attempt the same trades. In September, a Federal Reserve Board crisis involved, at most, seven milliseconds’ time. The Fed releases market-crucial news typically at exactly 2 p.m. Washington, D.C., time, tightly controlled, transmitted by designated news agents via fiber optic cable. On Sept. 18, somehow, traders in Chicago reportedly beat traders elsewhere to deal an estimated $600 million worth of assets — when theoretically, access to the Fed’s news should have been random. (In other words, the drive to shave milliseconds off the “speed of light” has become quite profitable.) (CNBC, 9-24-2013)

City opts to improve service, not create own police department By Bianca Kaplanek
DEL MAR — After spending $25,000 to evaluate law enforcement needs and options, Del Mar officials agreed at the Nov. 18 meeting to try to improve the services it receives from the Sheriff’s Department rather than create its own police force. The study, conducted by Ralph Andersen & Associates, provided input on the existing contract and level of service, as well as the benefits and disadvantages of staying with the Sheriff’s Department or creating a standalone department either by itself or with other cities. Del Mar has contracted with the Sheriff’s Department for police services since its inception in 1959. It is currently one of nine cities to do so. Under the current contract, for a cost of about $1.7 million, the city gets
one patrol deputy 24/7, a traffic officer weekdays from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., a full-time detective and regional services such as SWAT, aerial support, search and rescue, the crime lab and bomb and arson. Of the 213 felony and misdemeanor arrests in the city in 2012, 119, or about 56 percent, were at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Council members noted Del Mar is unique because the combination of the beach and summer fairgrounds activities attracts visitors like no other city in the state. As the cost of law enforcement steadily increased, the city directed a Finance Subcommittee to look into cost-saving measures. What members discovered was dissatisfaction with the services being provided to the county’s smallest city.
Calls to the Sheriff’s Department are broken into four categories. Priority one calls include serious accidents, SWAT team involvement, disasters and airplane crashes. Average response time in June through August of this year was about 14 minutes. For priority two calls — homicides, hit-and-run injuries, robbery, rape, assault with a deadly weapon, burglary and grand theft, for example — the average response time during the same summer months was a little more than nine minutes. Driving under the influence, accidents with minor injuries, hit-and-run with property damage, an escaped prisoner, arson and child stealing are among the priority three calls that averaged a 13-minute response time. Prowlers, assault, indecent exposure, vandalism, trespassing and audi-
ble and silent alarms constitute priority four calls that had an average response time of 55 minutes. Consultant John Goss said the benefits to staying with the Sheriff’s Department include regional resources, the ability to respond to major emergencies and cost-effective services. The disadvantages are a perceived lack of visibility, staff continuity and contract negotiations because of the nine-city contract, limited communication with the ranger and lifeguard, inappropriate detective assignments, such as spending too much time reviewing red-light camera tickets, and slow response times. Goss said, in his opinion, the Sheriff’s Department “provides satisTURN TO SHERIFF ON B15
10 men charged after attempted maritime smuggling event By Tony Cagala
DEL MAR — Ten men are being charged with possession with intent to distribute and conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance following their arrest on Nov. 8 near 12th Street. Of the 10 individuals, two were U.S. citizens, the rest were Mexican nationals. Just after 3 a.m., Border Patrol Agents spotted an unlit panga vessel traveling 3 miles off the coast of Oceanside in a southern direction. Border Patrol Agent Jerome Conlin said that the Coastal Surveillance System on Carlsbad’s Ponto Beach was also used to confirm the agents’ initial detection of the panga. A helicopter from the Office of Air and Marine was called in to assist in the search for the vessel. The panga was spotted approximately 2 miles off the coast of Del Mar just Agents with the Border Patrol and the Office of Air and Marine stopped after 4 a.m. still traveling in a a panga boat as it came ashore in Del Mar on Nov. 8.

A commercial box truck was also allegedly involved in the transportation of marijuana. Ten men were arrested in the smuggling attempt.
turned towards shore. Two people from the vessel attempted to flee, running in opposite directions. One man was arrested, but a search for the second suspect was unsuccessful. Border Patrol Agents conducted a simultaneous search near 12th Street and discovered a commercial box truck with the name “La Guadalupana Imports” on it illegally parked
A subsequent search of the truck revealed a man sleeping in the driver’s seat and several people lying in the cargo area. All were arrested and taken to the Imperial Beach Border Patrol Station for interviews and processing. A total of 41 bales of marijuana were removed from the panga. Border Patrol estimated the marijuana had a street value of $4,105,000. One of the suspects, Jorge Rodriguez-Hernandez told interviewers at the Imperial Beach Border Patrol Station that they were waiting for a boat to arrive, and that he would be paid $900 to help move bales of marijuana out of the boat and into a truck, according to the filed court complaint. One suspect said that the drugs were originally to be unloaded in the Los Angeles area but that the drop off was changed to Del Mar.
Area parks receive grants for restoration projects COAST CITIES — A $1.2 million grant from the Wildlife Conservation Board (WCB) to the San Diego County Department of Parks and Recreation was given for a project to construct and rehabilitate trails, provide signs and trailhead facilities, and restore approximately 15 acres of coastal sage habitat on the south side of the Tijuana River Estuary, three air miles south of Imperial Beach in San Diego County. At its Nov. 21 quarterly meeting, the Wildlife Conservation Board approved approximately $14.4 million in grants to help restore and protect

fish and wildlife habitat throughout California. Some of the 14 funded projects will provide benefits to fish and wildlife — including some endangered species — while others will provide the public with access to important natural resources.

could accidentally hurt a child or be used in a crime, according to Sheriff’s Lt. Mario Zermeno. The gathered firearms were eventually melted down, he said. By way of comparison, the previous Guns for Gift Cards event, held this past spring in San Marcos, netted 208 guns. “I’m not aware of another event like this in Southern California resulting in so many (firearms),” Zermeno said. Zermeno attributed the increase in firearms collected to media coverage getting the word out in advance, the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department emphasizing the safety aspect and the location’s accessibility. Each handgun was worth a $100 Walmart gift card, with rifles and other types of firearms worth $150 Walmart gift cards. Zermeno said Walmart was not a partner in the event. All told, the Sheriff’s department awarded more than $100,000 in gift cards,
according to Zermeno. About $95,000 came from asset forfeiture funds and money seized from illegal activity. The county District Attorney’s office contributed the remaining $5,000. The firearm total included handguns, shotguns, rifles and one hand grenade. The Carlsbad Police Department and Oceanside Police Department also participated in the event. Guns can always be dropped at Sheriff’s Department stations Monday through Friday during business hours. To do so, people should leave unloaded guns in the trunks of their cars and inform a receptionist. However, those who turn in a firearm to the Sheriff’s Department stations will not receive a gift card, and they must submit personal information for an evidence report. Zermeno said he’s not sure when or where the next Guns for Gift Cards will take place.
REGION — Though working on diversifying its water supply sources, SDWA (San Diego Water Authority) will remain reliant on the supplier it is suing over water costs. The Metropolitan Water District (MWD) is the primary supplier of imported water for six counties in Southern California, San Diego County included. For decades, MWD has provided the vast majority of the water that SDWA flows into the county’s homes and businesses. In 1991, MWD supplied 95 percent of the county’s water, with the rest coming from local water sources. In recent years, the SDWA has realized the potential cost and supply dangers of depending on one source for such a vital resource. Speaking before the Carlsbad City Council on Dec. 3, the chair of the SDWA Board of Directors Thomas Wornham emphasized how SDWA has focused on diversifying its water supplies. SDWA has spent $2 billion over the past 10 years to develop a variety of water sources, desalinated seawater from the forthcoming Carlsbad Desalination Plant and other local sources among them, Wornham said. But MWD still remains SDWA’s primary water provider. Today, the MWD supplies nearly half of the water SDWA distributes throughout the county. Payments to MWD make up 80 percent of SDWA’s water costs. Over recent years, SDWA has become concerned by the rising costs its major supplier has been charging. “We don’t have much control over how (MWD) allocates the cost,” said SDWA General Manager Maureen Stapleton. SDWA began to clash
with MWD when it arranged to purchase water from the Imperial Irrigation District but have the water delivered through MWD’s pipes. Authorities at SDWA believe that the agency is being overcharged by MWD for transporting the water from the Imperial Irrigation District, according to Stapleton. “We believe they are overcharging us by $57 million alone this year,” she said. With 16 percent of this year’s water supply coming from the Imperial Irrigation District, SDWA filed a lawsuit against MWD in 2010 asserting that the supplier was overcharging for the water delivery. The case will go to trial Dec. 17. Statements from MWD contend that SDWA is attempting to undermine the supplier’s regional cost-share model for San Diego’s exclusive benefit. “SDCWA’s lawsuit seeks to avoid paying its share of maintaining this transportation system — at the expense of the system’s other users,” read a statement from MWD’s legal department about the lawsuit. Wornham said that assuming that the ruling from the Dec. 17 trial is appealed, the legal battle with MWD should conclude by 2016. Despite the lawsuit and its efforts to diversify its water supply, SDWA has no choice but to rely on MWD for a significant portion of the county’s water supply for the foreseeable future. By 2020, MWD will remain SDWA’s primary water supplier, providing an estimated 30 percent of the county’s water. “There is a place for (MWD) in our portfolio, but we need to make sure that we have, via diversification, our future in our hands,” Wornham said.

Parking study confirms what many knew By Bianca Kaplanek
DEL MAR â&#x20AC;&#x201D; There are plenty of parking spaces in Del Mar, just not enough where people want them the most. That is the conclusion of a recently completed parking study presented at the Nov. 18 council meeting, and it confirms what many people have been saying for years. Data collected revealed that on average, during a peak usage day in August, 83 percent of on-street stalls were occupied. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the average,â&#x20AC;? consultant Steffen Turoff from Walker Parking said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So there were plenty of blocks where it was well above that, and we would consider that a problem.â&#x20AC;? He said more than 90 percent of on-street spaces were occupied on Camino del Mar, Stratford Court, Ocean Avenue and 13th through 15th streets. But off-street parking in private and public lots at the same time was between 40 percent and 80 percent. In some places itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;difficult, if not impossible,â&#x20AC;? to find parking, while in other areas â&#x20AC;&#x153;demand really peters out,â&#x20AC;? Turoff said, noting that about 400 empty spaces were found. In the overall study area, which included 1,875 stalls in the central commercial zone from the railroad tracks to east of Luneta Drive, Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Auberge Del Mar and Zuni Drive to 10th Street, on a Saturday summer night, 76 percent of on-street and 59 percent of off-street stalls were occupied, including Del Mar Plaza. The number of off-street spaces decreased to 36 percent when Del Mar Plaza was excluded. Turoff said one of the most important factors is

turnover. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can say we need X number of spaces, but what really determines how many cars weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re serving is â&#x20AC;Ś how frequently those spaces are turning,â&#x20AC;? he said. For visitors, those spaces should be turning quickly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re kicking people out,â&#x20AC;? he said, but visitors donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stay long compared to employees. He said an employee parked in one space for eight hours represents four to eight visitors who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use that space during that time. He said 23 percent of the spaces on Camino del Mar were not turning, exceeding the maximum three-hour limit despite enforcement efforts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is relatively good but it still means one out of every four or five spaces that should be available to visitors are not,â&#x20AC;? he said. Employees and business owners generally arrive first to open. Visitors show up second and they have trouble finding spaces, which in a nutshell is what we found, Turoff said. He said he saw â&#x20AC;&#x153;regularsâ&#x20AC;? removing chalk, moving

cars and parking in residential areas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is really a behavioral issue,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are parking spaces, maybe not where everybody wants them.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody fitsâ&#x20AC;? with the current available parking, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You just have to manage it a little differently.â&#x20AC;? Turoff recommends developing an employee parking program that includes incentives for workers to park in designated areas, â&#x20AC;&#x153;which can be challenging but it can be done,â&#x20AC;? he said. He said turnover can be increased by extending enforcement hours from the current 6 p.m. to about 9 p.m. He said the incentive to park farther away and walk to oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s destination should be free parking. In Del Mar it is currently the other way around, with free spaces in the higher demand areas along Camino del Mar, with metered parking under Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Auberge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of the parking management problem,â&#x20AC;? he said. Turoff also recommends creating a residential permit program. City staff is also working on a shared parking plan so private spaces for daytime businesses can be used for public parking at night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is an abundance of parking on private property,â&#x20AC;? City Manager Scott Huth said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To maximize that use
the city needs to step in and play a management role.â&#x20AC;? Planning Director Kathy Garcia said the suggestions are supported by the Traffic and Parking and Business Support advisory committees. She said TPAC also recommends using towing as an enforcement option. Council members also support going forward with the recommendations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This employee parking program is going to have the most immediate impact until next summer,â&#x20AC;? Councilman Don Mosier said.â&#x20AC;&#x153;And by next summer we should be talking about changing the parking time, getting more paid parking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think free parking right in the middle of downtown doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fear that putting in more paid parking is going to push people into the neighborhoods then we have to have residential permits, too.â&#x20AC;? Councilman Al Corti said he would like to see specifics on how to implement the ideas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope that the study would say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;And hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible ways of doing it,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Corti said.â&#x20AC;&#x153;If â&#x20AC;Ś thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations on how to do it, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m all ears.â&#x20AC;? Staff will report back to council on the progress in about six months. The downtown parking study is the first step in creating a comprehensive parking management plan for the city.

A glimpse inside the Scripps Encinitas Birth Pavilion HEALTH WATCH FROM THE STAFF OF SCRIPPS HEALTH Carlsbad resident Douglas Fenton, M.D., has the quintessential Southern California lifestyle. He bicycles with fellow physicians, motorbikes, skateboards and paddleboards. But Dr. Fenton really lights up when describing his work as medical director for the Leichtag Family Birth Pavilion at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas. Since assuming the role in 2009, Dr. Fenton has focused on making Scripps Encinitas the best hospital in North County to deliver a baby. What is y our role at the Birth Pavilion? I believe our community deserves the best care and that starts with childbirth. To make that happen, I work with colleagues, a fantastic nursing staff and others to develop and implement new programs that improve quality and enhance patient satisfaction. As director, it’s my job to help the team pursue excellence. I want everyone to feel super special about what they do. What new programs have you been working on? We initiated an OB hospitalist program. This means we always have an obstetrician in the hospital, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. If there’s an emergency during childbirth, we don’t have to wait for an on-call physician to drive here. The hospitalist can step in immediately, and as a result, patient safety is very high. We are also expanding our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), which we run in partnership with Rady Children’s Hospital, to care for more pre-term babies. That way we can take care of them here, rather than sending them to another hospital, and mothers get to stay with their babies. We have also implemented perinatal consultations for women going through high-risk pregnancies. How will the Birth Pavilion be affected w hen the ne w Critical Care Building opens in 2014? The Critical Care Building will have an enormously positive effect on the entire hospital. It will allow us to expand the postpartum unit, moving it upstairs, directly over the Birth

Pavilion. What are y ou most proud of at the Birth Pavilion? Many women come to Scripps Encinitas because we’re very supportive of natural childbirth. We don’t fit any patient into a mold. Rather, we discuss the patient’s expectations and how we can meet them. We want to ensure all families have an excellent experience that is consistent with good medical practice. This approach governs everything we do. We were the first hospital in San Diego to receive the Baby-Friendly designation from the World Health Organization and the United Nations Children’s Fund. This recognizes our commitment to helping women breastfeed. New moms have so many questions, and we want to help answer them. I’m particularly proud of the respectful atmosphere at the Birth Pavilion. Everyone enjoys their job and is working to create an excellent patient experience. This is one of many reasons why we have some of the highest patient satisfaction scores in the region. What do you lik e most about Scripps Encinitas? This hospital has kind of a small town feeling. There’s that intimacy: you know people and they’re happy to see you and say hello. It’s like coming home.

Working can help chronic illness sufferers (BPT) — No one needed to tell Houston’s Robert Gandy that he would reap health and wellness benefits from continuing to work after he started dialysis four years ago. For more than 42 years, Gandy has worked in the restaurant business. The thought of leaving the job he loves never crossed his mind when he started treatment for kidney failure - he would find a way to make dialysis fit with his work and his life. “Going to my job takes me away from the fact that I have end stage renal disease (ESRD), because I’m absorbed in my work,” says Gandy, an executive chef, proud grandfather and DaVita dialysis patient. As Gandy discovered — and studies have proven — when patients continue working after they go on dialysis, it can help them feel healthier, happier and more financially secure. Nearly 50 percent of new ESRD patients are of working age and currently there are 430,000 people in the U.S. with end stage renal disease. Individuals who work are more likely to receive a kidney transplant, according to a recent collaborative study from the University of New Hampshire. Those who work full-time are the most likely to be placed on the transplant waiting list and receive a kidney. In addition, people on dialysis who keep their jobs are generally happier, the study found.Working patients tend to experience lower rates of depression, their survival rate is notably 6 percent better than those who are not

health. * Understand their treatment options and insurance benefits — Employer-provided insurance may offer additional coverage for transplants and better access to the care team of their choice. * Inform others about their illness — Tell their family and friends to build their support network and find support online. “Continuing to work can
benefit chronically ill patients with extra income, a bigger support network and even a greater sense of purpose,” says Dr. Allen R. Nissenson, DaVita chief medical officer. “Talk to your work to make sure dialysis fits in, so you put the least amount of stress upon yourself as possible,” shares Gandy. “But get the information, process it and talk to your family.”
“LEST WE FORGET” Seventy-two years ago, on December 7th, 1941, the Japanese attacked American forces at Pearl Harbor, killing over 2,400 Americans, wounding 1,282, destroying 188 aircraft, sinking four Navy battleships, and, as the world later found out, awakening a sleeping giant. President Franklin D. Roosevelt described December 7, 1941, as a “date which will live in infamy.” May every generation remember the battles fought on that day, remember the heroes, and those who were lost that day. We owe these men and women our eternal gratitude and honor them today and every day for the freedoms we, as Americans, enjoy!

SurfAid launches benefit for Philippines COAST CITIES — The humanitarian organization SurfAid, based in North San Diego County, has launched an appeal to assist the Filipino people in the wake of the Typhoon Haiyan. You can donate to the SurfAid Philippines Appeal at surfaid.org/Philippines. In the U.S., you can also text SURFAID to 85944 to donate $10 to the SurfAid Philippines Appeal. Billabong and the Quiksilver Foundation have pledged $5,000 each. The Philippines Government estimates that the super typhoon has affected more than 13 million people and 4.4 million people have been displaced from their homes. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reports that more than one million houses are damaged or destroyed, and 80 to 90 percent of schools in Aklan, Capiz and Iloilo provinces were damaged or destroyed. With the scale of the disaster and the logistical challenges, SurfAid CEO Andrew Judge said the organization has been establishing key local partnerships before

appealing to donors. “Local networks and onthe-ground capacity will ensure that we can be a channel for the surf community to make a valuable contribution to an effective response,” Judge said. After the typhoon struck, Indonesian staff of Johanniter, a German organization, approached SurfAid Country Director Anne Wuijts about a possible collaboration
in the Philippines. Johanniter works on health promotion in Sumatra in parallel with SurfAid's work in the Mentawai and Nias islands. “Initially we are planning to support Filipino partners through Johanniter,” Wuijts said. “They have an excellent emergency response reputation, are on the ground, and are already providing medical assistance
and supplies through established local networks.” Jutta Meissner, Head of Desk Southeast Asia for Johanniter International Assistance, said: “We are already distributing food and shelter packages through our local partner on the islands Leyte and Panay. The need is huge. So we are very happy to get more support through SurfAid.”

Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering
bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Priority Posting and Publishing at 714-573-1965 for information regarding the Trustee's Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08000865-13-1.

Keeping it local at Sub Palace in Leucadia DAVID BOYLAN Lick the Plate It sometimes feels as though Encinitas and other coastal communities have two distinct dining personalities. Coastal is primarily made up of the independent, free spirited restaurateurs while the El Camino Real corridor is loaded with just about every chain and franchise available. There are exceptions in both cases with the occasional chain making it west of Interstate 5 and plenty of worthy independents in shoppingcenter-land. The foodie culture tends to poo-poo the chains and I will admit that I’ve found myself in that camp, but then contradict myself completely, finding myself at a chain drive-through, giving in to my fast-food weakness and the convenience of it all. That said, I’ve always been of the mindset that if an independent restaurant provides delicious, quality food in a unique atmosphere that reflects their personality, I’ll make it a point to support them, and even pay a little more to do so. Which brings me to the topic of this week’s column — the Sub Palace in funky Leucadia. I’ll state emphatically off the bat that this is literally a mom and pop place that serves up monster subs at an affordable price in a charming Coast Highway location right next door to the new Bing Surfboards retail shop. The mom and pop comes from husband and wife Ray and Annalee Yargeau, who own Sub Palace with their kids Tim and Leeanna. The Yargeaus have owned Sub Palace since 2000 and are true locals who live right around the corner on Hygeia. Ray moved to Leucadia from Massachusetts as a teenager, and attended San Dieguito High, Oceanside-Carlsbad Jr. College, and has lived in Leucadia for 40-plus years. Annalee, a So Cal native, also graduated from San Dieguito and has spent much of her lifetime guiding four children through Central (Paul Ecke) Elementary, Oak Crest, Diegueno, San Dieguito and La Costa Canyon. Sub Palace had been a landmark in Leucadia since the ‘70s, when it was located next door to the 7-Eleven location on Leucadia Boulevard. It was originally known as Steve’s Sub Palace. Reputedly, Steve was forced to move to the present spot by his financially stronger neighbor’s concern over competition. Many of Steve’s early customers remain loyal supporters who constantly assert that they serve the biggest and best sub in North County. When the Yargeaus purchased Sub Palace, they were wary about changing anything. After all, the business already
was well regarded for many years by both its local and vacationing patrons. Though decidedly adamant about retaining its menu of oversized sub sandwiches, they wanted to make the kind of changes that would mark this place as theirs. For more than 30 years, the family vacationed in Hawaii and was involved with a Polynesian Dance studio in Encinitas. Shortly after assuming ownership of Sub Palace, they added a Hawaiian gift item section and commissioned a local artist Kevin Anderson to create an outdoor mural depicting their favorite vacation spot at Laniakea beach on the North Shore of Oahu in the very Leucadia-like town of Haleiwa. Hopefully, all customers feel the same thing when they come into Sub Palace — a special blend of the “aloha spirit” assimilated by the Yargeau family during its many visits to Hawaii and the friendly, caring Leucadia attitude instilled in
activity. If you do devour a large, it would serve you best to have set aside some nap time for after as there will be a very pleasurable food coma as a result. The Sub Palace is a local gem worth supporting. Stop in next time you are driving along the coast and tell them Lick the Plate sent you. They also cater events. They are located at 810 N. Coast Highway 101 in Leucadia. They are open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed on Mondays. Call (760) 753-2105 or visit subpalace.com.

Drink with your senses — A holiday wine party idea WINE OF THE MONTH BY FRANK MANGIO
FRANK MANGIO
Taste of Wine f you are at all a wine lover, you have been to one or more of the many wine events that are staged every week at wine bars, restaurants, hotels, parks and wineries. Well, you too can be a wine host, and with the approaching year-end holidays, your friends will thank you for the chance to get together at the ultimate wine home party, the Drink Yourself Blind-Name That Wine! Pick out a dozen of so friendly couples who love to sip, and talk about what they sipped. Make a contest of it by wrapping 10 or 12 bottles, preferably all red wines, in bags. Be sure to keep all the wines a secret. (A Blind Tasting!) Pick wines from all over the world. Be sure to include: Napa Valley, Sonoma, Paso Robles and Temecula in California. Then go to Oregon and Washington, France, Italy, South America and Spain.The Varietals should be all different: a Cabernet, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Syrah, Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Malbec and the list goes on. Blends are hard to identify so I would not include them. The test would be to match a description of each and where it came from, with the actual wine bottle tasted by number. The most correct choices on the form provided would win. A great 1st prize is a big bottle like a magnum or larger. This really motivates all the guests to match up the correct answer. When all your guests have finished tasting, collect the test form, tally up the answers, and the one with the most correct choices wins! At this point, tear away the bags and reveal all the

wines, then give back the forms to show how well everyone did. There’ll be lots of groans for those that missed their favorites or thought a Zin was really a Merlot, but all will agree, the distinctive qualities of the wines are revealed for all to compare and debate. It’s one of the best ways to taste test palates and learn from the wine experience. As host, you should supply appetizers before and during the tasting and water for cleaning glasses between tastes. Choose wines in a price range of $12 (Malbecs) to $50 (Cabernets). Mistakes to avoid: make sure the glassware is the same size and let your guests know that only 2 ounces of each wine is allowed so there is wine for all to test taste. Don’t burn candles or open up smelly “air fresheners” that distort the scent of a wine. Make sure the red wines are at less than room temperature. I prefer 65 degrees. It doesn’t have to be precise, but just slightly cooler than 72 degrees. So, start planning to put your creativity to work for a “Drink Yourself Blind” Wine Party. It takes wine tasting to a whole new level.

CUSD named to 4th annual district honor roll CARLSBAD — Carlsbad Unified School District is one of 477 school districts in the U.S. and Canada, and the only district in San Diego County, being honored by the College Board with placement on the 4th Annual District Honor Roll for increasing access to Advance Placement (AP) course work while simultaneously maintaining the percentage of students In 2013, more than 3,300 colleges and universities around the world received AP scores for college credit, advanced placement and/or consideration in the admission process, with many col-
leges and universities in the United States offering credit in one or more subjects for qualifying AP scores. Data from 2013 show that among African American, Hispanic, and Native American students with a high degree of readiness for AP, only about half of students are participating because their schools do not always offer the AP course for which they have potential. Carlsbad Unified is committed to expanding the availability of AP courses among students of all backgrounds earning scores of three or higher on AP
Exams. Carlsbad Unified had nearly 19 percent more AP students in 2013 than in 2011, with 80 percent of the students earning scores of three or more. “We applaud the extraordinary efforts of the devoted teachers and administrators in this district who are offering more students the opportunity to engage in rigorous college-level course work,” said Trevor Packer, the College Board’s senior vice president of AP and Instruction. “These outcomes are a powerful testament to educators’ belief that a more
diverse population of students is ready for the rigor that will prepare them for success in college,” he added. Most four-year colleges and universities in the United States grant credit, advanced placement, or both on the basis of successful AP Exam scores — more than 3,600 institutions worldwide annually receive AP scores. In the last decade, participation in the AP Program has more than doubled. Last May, 2.2 million students representing 18,920 schools around the world, both public and nonpublic, took approximately 4 million AP Exams.
INVESTORS
the possibility and the benefit of this,” Gibbs said. “But it hasn’t been done, so it’s risk capital.” Accredited investors are legally defined as people having an income in excess of $200,000 to $300,000 for the past two years and expect the same for the current year, or someone that has a net worth of $1 million or more. “Those people play a really, really big role in the startup community, and really in fueling entrepreneurship in the United States,” said Dr. Bennett Cherry, an associate professor of entrepreneurship at Cal State San Marcos. What the accredited investor brings to a new venture is not only the money, but also possibly access to all sorts of networks — reputational, information, social — that gives the business access to resources they may not originally have had access to, Cherry explained. Two of the investors that Home Town Farms could mention, Bill Scripps and Greg Horn, have been involved with the company since early on. Horn, the ex-CEO of GNC (General Nutrition Centers), has been an accredited investor for at least 10 years, and said he’s
been involved with Home Town Farms for more than a year. He discovered the investment opportunity not through one of Gibbs’ advertisements, but through a concerted effort to identify businesses in the local and organic foods area with the highest potential, he explained. “I think that the local and organic food movements are converging and I have been on the lookout for investments in this area because I think that the trend is so strong,” Horn said. As an accredited investor, you’re owner of part of the equity, Horn said. “You’re sharing in the rewards of the company.” Cherry said he knows there are a lot of people that aren’t happy with the idea of equity crowdfunding. “But I also think it tends to be the people who have historically made money off of the traditional ways of seeking and finding equity investments,” he added. Horn said the seeking out of new investors makes sense. “It kind of democratizes matching investors who are on the lookout for businesses to invest in — just in a much more effi-
cient way of matching them to the opportunity,” he said. Though with more businesses being able to go out and seek more investors, one concern, says Cherry, is who is going to be watching over them? Who’s going to be making sure that there’s not a bunch of schemes going on or a bunch of fraud? There are a couple of websites that help to verify those businesses looking for investors, Cherry said. Sites like Crowdcheck.com, founded by entrepreneurs and business lawyers, help provide some oversight of businesses seeking out equity investors for the public. The SEC also offers some background information on the companies and private funds that have filed notice of sales with the commission. With Gibbs’ business background as an entrepreneur, CEO and vice president, he envisions the spread of Home Town Farms to be really quick based on people’s reactions to it. His intent is to take Home Town Farms national. While keeping their corporate stores in Southern California, he’s envisioning the countrywide stores to be run as franchises.

including the Rancho Santa Fe News (a sister publication to The Coast News). In 2012, President Obama and Congress passed the JOBS (Jumpstart Our Business Startups) Act. With that, the SEC (Securities Exchange Commission) adopted new rules to allow private or public businesses to advertise for accredited investors, in what’s become known as Rule 506(c) Advertising for accredited investors can be done anywhere from print to the Internet, social media, radio and TV broadcasts, according to the SEC. Gibbs is relying solely on accredited investors for Home Town Farms. Because of the expense of starting a new venture like this (it’s costing about a $1 million per acre to start this kind of farm, he said), turning to the smaller crowdfunding methods as say a kickstarter or indiegogo website wouldn’t be able to produce the amount of capital needed to get the business going. “I needed to go after the larger investors that could see the vision and
factory service.” Some residents disagreed. Robin Crabtree, a member of the subcommittee who lives in the beach area, said taking 55 minutes or more to respond to summer parties and drunk and disorderly visitors “is just unacceptable.” “I’d like to see Del Mar get better service for our money,” she said. “There’s a quality of service that we enjoy with our lifeguard department, with our fire department,” Bud Emerson said, noting that one reason Del Mar opted to become a city was dissatisfaction with San Diego fire and beach safety service. “We wanted a department that we knew and that
ed,” Haley said. “There’s no rush to get there.” Other calls included a train versus pedestrian, in which a female was killed, a two-vehicle collision with the parties exchanging information and a vehicle versus pedestrian with the victim refusing medical attention. “Those are not calls that a deputy has to get there in one minute,” Haley said. “Accidents where we had minor injuries, the average response time was (less than a minute). We knew somebody was hurt. We got there quickly. “If there is an active prowler we will be there within one to two minutes,” he said after the meeting. “If a report is pending and the crime is not occurring, that is a very low-priority call. “If any call we receive is for an ongoing crime, we will

knew us, and we need cops that same way,” he said. “And it’s not just to catch us speeding. … They need to know us. They need to know who we are, how we live.They need to be part of our community.” Jim Benedict, also a subcommittee member, said the report was not meant to be a reflection on sheriff’s Capt. Robert Haley or his department. “We have probably one of the worst labor contracts in the county … and that drove up our costs,” Benedict said. “Just the fact that we have one officer 24/7 throws us into a position that’s just problematic. “One thing that I was shocked at was … the 55 minutes for the priority four (calls),” he added. “If you had somebody looking in your window that was a prowler, do you know when the sheriff would come? … In 55 minutes in August, 44 minutes in the average over the year. … I think it’s almost outrageous and that has to be fixed.” In response to the report, Haley said he had a crime analyst review calls to Del Mar in 2012. He said priority one calls were all collisions that included an unfounded military airplane crash and a two-vehicle collision with one person transported to the hospital. “It’s already transport-
be there extremely quickly, including the times when a deputy has to come from Solana Beach or Rancho Santa Fe,” Haley said. “The safety of the public is our number one priority and we would never hold a call where an active prowler was outside the house,” he added. The consultants estimated a standalone police department would be $200,000 to $300,000 more per year, with a start-up cost of nearly $1 million. Council directed staff to work with the Sheriff’s Department to improve service and implement some of the recommendations from the study, such as increased foot patrol, better access to data and using someone other than a detective to review red-light camera tickets. “I think that there is agreement that the relationship between the city of Del Mar and the sheriff is broken,” Benedict said. “A short term goal is to see if it is repairable.” The Finance Subcommittee will fine-tune the impacts of developing a city police force if services don’t improve. An update will be provided in about six months, with a full report and service evaluation expected in a year.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

You can turn a possibility into a reality if you are receptive to new ideas. Strive to be your best, and you will find ways to improve your standard of living. Stick to your game plan and refuse to take on burdens that don’t belong to you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Listen to what’s being said, but don’t rush to follow what others do. Make your moves based on what is most likely to bring you the highest reward. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Focus on looking your best. Update your image, and you’ll make an impression that will influence what someone does for you. Financial prospects are looking good. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Stick close to home. Travel and communication will lead to delays and frustration. Make alterations to the way you earn a living. Let your passion lead the way. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Re-evaluate your relationships with friends, relatives and neighbors. Associate with the people who have the most to offer and are willing to share. Romance will change your love life. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Let bygones be bygones and make a toast to the present and the future.
Concentrate on contracts; finalize and tidy up loose ends. A change in finances looks promising. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Travel to destinations that will bring you closer to the people and things you love. Social activities will lead to nostalgia and reconnecting. Romance is in the stars. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Put greater emphasis on the relationships you have personally and professionally. Massage any problems that have the potential to come back to haunt you. Listen to complaints and make changes. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Make some alterations at home to accommodate the activities you will embark on between now and the end of the year. Shop for something unusual at a bargain price. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Your charm and wit will put you into the spotlight. Use whatever chance you get to impress and influence people you want to work with or spend more time with in the future. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Work diligently to clear up a project that needs to be completed with precision and detail. A chance to spend quality time with someone special will spice up your love life. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Refuse to get into a disagreement. Compromise, and you will bypass a situation that is getting blown out of proportion. Make love, not war, and you will have more fun. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — High energy will get you to the finish line in time to move on to more entertaining activities. Don’t let jealousy stand between you and a romantic evening.
