Escondido Police Chief selected following personnel turmoil By Rachel Stine
ESCONDIDO — The city of Escondido selected a new police chief after about a year of turmoil within the police department involving an undisclosed personnel investigation, the mysterious early retirement of the former police chief, and police misconduct allegations. City Manager Clay Phillips selected Capt. Craig Carter on Aug. 16 after the Police Department had been without a chief for almost a
year. Carter has worked for the Escondido Police Department for more than 20 years and was recently promoted from lieutenant to captain in March of this year. Carter said he was excited by the opportunity to lead the city’s police department, where he has spent his entire career. “This is a fantastic department. It is a great group of men and women,” he said. Carter was chosen after a

ENCINITAS — Councilmembers invited residents to come up with business plans for a community arts center at Wednesday night’s meeting. But the proposals won’t necessarily be tailored specifically to the Pacific View property. Roughly 20 residents at the meeting urged the city to buy the property from the Encinitas Union School District. They argued, as many in the community have for years, that it’s the ideal spot for an arts center. Deputy Mayor Lisa Shaffer said the city is currently negotiating over the purchase price with the dis-
trict. In the meantime, she encouraged residents to look at ways to fund an arts center — even if it’s not at Pacific View. “(Proposals) could inform plans for Pacific View if we’re successful at the real estate negotiations,” Shaffer said. “Or it could lead to action in some other location if Pacific View doesn’t happen,” she added. “But I don’t see any reason to wait to have that discussion, we have a lot of interest.” With a unanimous vote, councilmembers directed the Cultural Tourism Marketing Committee to TURN TO PACIFIC VIEW ON A24
City manager resigns By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — City Manager Peter Weiss announced his resignation during the City Council meeting on Aug. 21. He stated that his resignation would be effective Dec. 27, “in consideration of what’s best for the Council and community.” The December date gives the present City Council time to go through the process to search and appoint a new city manager before the next City Council elections. City Council members said the news of Weiss’ resignation came as a shock. Weiss has worked for the city for 27 years, first as a city engineer,then director of public works and seven years as city manager. Both Mayor Jim Wood
and Councilwoman Esther Sanchez gave Weiss kudos for working with a City Council that has consistently had a contentious two-three vote split on issues through election cycles. City manager Weiss had been tasked with finding a middle ground for council members by suggesting word changes or modifications to public hearing items that satisfied all council members. “He survived seven years of us,” Sanchez said. Wood, who is beginning his campaign for district five County Supervisor in September, said prior to Weiss’ announcement that the conflicts between council members might have pushed Weiss to resign.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
BY KEN LEIGHTON
How many Walmarts does it take? Aim low. You’re sure to hit. That was how an acquaintance described one of his old friends who would always set his sites low when it came to connecting with women. By settling for the less desirable, as the saying implies, he was more certain to land a date. Sounds crude, maybe. But boy does that seem appropriate in describing how Oceanside is handling its business image. Carlsbad has no Walmarts. Now Oceanside is about to have its fourth. Walmart, the ultimate badge of low wage/low price/low aspirations, is now going to make Oceanside one of the premier under performing cities in the country. I am told no other U.S. city has five or more Walmarts, so that means we are becoming one of the most Walmarted cities in America. It’s been announced that the fourth Walmart is going to open at the former Office Depot site at the Mission Square shopping Center at the corner of Horne Street and Mission Avenue. Longtimers will remember this 31,000-square foot space housed a Vons supermarket in the ‘60s and ‘70s. Could you imagine Carlsbad allowing a Walmart less than one mile from the beach? Of course not. They don’t want any. But here at desperate-by-the-sea a.k.a. bargain basement retail ghetto, we will continue to kowtow to the low-end retail big box monster from Arkansas as they continue to dig their tentacles into our town. This newest Walmart will saddle up right next to our other economic treasure, the 99-cent store. Right in the heart of downtown, within walking distance of our brand new ocean view hotel, which is supposed to be a touchstone of our economic progression forward, we have the fourth Oceanside Walmart. One step forward, two steps back. Welcome to Oceanside, where appar-

ently no one on the city staff, city council or chamber of commerce will seemingly even try to move us out of this rut where we continue to be known as the low-end mecca of the coast. Walmart doesn’t even need Carlsbad when they have a nearby pushover like Oceanside. Of course it was no good that this prominent space was setting vacant for over a year after Office Depot left. But I have heard nothing about anyone from the city making an attempt to get a Boney’s-style market in that spot. And yes it is true that this Walmart will focus on groceries, but we already have a grocery supermarket serving the Posole neighborhood just a couple blocks away called El Super. You could say that nothing says urban blight like big empty storefronts. But the fact is in the very same shopping center, there continues to be a big empty space that most recently housed a Goodwill second hand store (back in the day it was home to a Thrifty’s). That space has been empty much longer than Office Depot and it continues to be empty. I want to know is there anybody at City Hall who has a big picture vision about what we could/should be doing with our business portfolio. What does our chamber of commerce do? Don’t even think of comparing it to Carlsbad’s unless you want to get embarrassed. And what about these councilappointed economic development commissions? Do they come up with any ideas? And if they do, does the council listen (or even care?) Who on the city staff is the point person(s) for implementing any kind of visionary economic overview? Am I hearing crickets?

Keep water clean I applaud Celia Kiewit for her important articles on dangers of fluoridated water. I hope Olivenhain Municipal Water District will keep their standards high and water clean, and not fall prey to this unwelcome, unhealthy, unnecessary pollution. Information about this issue has been available for decades. It’s common sense versus companies making money on a dubious product that’s purported to pose risks to diabetics, kidney and thyroid patients, and those who drink lots of tap water. And what about claims of damage to the musculoskeletal and nervous systems? See what scientists have to say. Concerned about teeth? Practice good oral hygiene, enjoy a healthy diet, and work towards subsidized dental care for those who supposedly “need” fluoridated water. Whoever pays for this won’t be the ones benefiting from it. Please keep our water clean! Mary Arana, Encinitas Good for council I commend the Solana Beach City Council for their Aug. 7 vote to develop a policy for the private rental of the Fletcher Cove Community Center (FCCC). They were able to come up with a set of reasonable provisional guidelines that many neighbors and other residents find acceptable. Although it has taken a significant amount of time, the council has shown it’s commitment to working with the community to put in place a fair set of rules. Somewhat confusingly for residents, a group is gathering signatures for a voter initiative with different guidelines for private rentals of FCCC including allowing larger and more frequent parties with fewer constraints on alcohol use. As a result of the Aug. 7 vote, there is no longer a need for this initiative. Residents should not be persuaded by paid signature gatherers to sign the initiative because if it goes through, a special election would cost the city more than $250,000, and if voted in to law another special election would be required to make any changes. Couldn’t that money be better spent repairing the closed public beach access at Del Mar Shores or the aging steps at Tide Beach Park? I look forward to the final policy being discussed and voted on at the Aug. 28 council meeting. Sincerely, Betsy Walcott Solana Beach
Fletcher Cove area, I oppose the Voter Initiative. Our City Council agreed to allow parties with up to 50 people in attendance, 2-3 times per month serving beer and wine. This allows for residents to utilize our improved Community Center, while ensuring the size and scope of such parties are appropriate for the venue. The Voter Initiative increases the alcoholic consumption allowance at the Community Center, as well as increasing the number of events to every weekend, up to twice per day. The Voter Initiative will not only decrease the value of living in coastal Solana Beach, but will turn that area of our beautiful bedroom community into a rowdy,traffic-filled, party scene on many weekends. This Voter Initiative will overwhelm the Fletcher Cove area with too many parties, too many cars, big parking problems and too much alcohol. Lastly, I cannot support any initiative that would increase the likelihood of drinking and driving in an area that is filled with families and small children. Sincerely, Kristin Edwards, Solana Beach Escondido council supports initiative At the Escondido City Council meeting on Aug. 14, the entire City Council did “ right thing,” by unanimously approving ECCHO’s Citizens Property Rights (CPR) Initiative, to preserve and protect the Escondido Country Club Golf Course as permanent Open Space. Despite unproven assertions to the contrary (by new owner of Escondido Country Club), their action to immediately adopt the ECCHO Initiative will actually save the city an enormous amount of money. Money saved includes: Unnecessary expenditure of additional “staff time,” which would have been spent if City Council supported the third option — which would have delayed action by at least another 30 days for preparation of an economic impact report. Additionally, the city saves the substantial cost of preparing an unnecessary item for election in 2014. ECCHO’s board of directors, and team of organizers and unpaid volunteers deserve enormous credit! Bravo! Patricia Borchmann, Escondido

Case charging ex-boyfriend 2 men convicted of iPad thefts at schools with murder to go to trial Encinitas schools hit By Rachel Stine
VISTA — A judge ruled Aug.21 that John Carlo Monta will be tried at the Vista Courthouse for the fatal stabbing of his former girlfriend Joanne Javier in Carlsbad last year. Deputy District Attorney Claudia Grasso argued in court that Monta had killed Javier because he was upset that she had started dating someone else and was considering moving back to the Philippines with their young son without him. After hearing multiple witness and detective testimonies over a two-day preliminary hearing, Judge Timothy M. Casserly ruled that there was enough evidence against 29-year-old Monta for the case to proceed to trial. On Nov. 9, 2012, 24-yearold Javier was found stabbed to death in her car in the parking lot of the Carlsbad dental office where she worked. Javier’s boss, Dr. Ida Alfonso, and co-worker Jesselle Buntan testified in court that Javier had told them that she was going to meet Monta for lunch that day. When Javier did not return from lunch, Alfonso went to look for her and found her blood-covered body in the passenger seat of her green SUV. Alfonso began screaming and people nearby called 911. Carlsbad Fire was the first to respond to the scene, located off of Van Allen Way, and upon arrival declared Javier dead. Carlsbad Police Detective Jeff Smith, who investigated the case, testified that Monta was identified as a suspect because he was the last person to have been in contact with Javier that day. Smith said that Monta
was arrested at his San Diego home and a search found Javier’s car keys in his possession. Investigators also found blood spots on the driver’s side door of his car. Grasso said that Smith stated during the second day of the hearing that Monta told him during the investigation that, “She (Javier) was breaking up the family.” Alfonso and Buntan stated in court that Javier had broken up with Monta and had started seeing someone else before she was killed. They also said that she had planned on taking a monthlong vacation to the Philippines in December 2012 with her mother and her young son, who she had had with Monta. Grasso stated in court that the San Diego Medical Examiner had determined that Javier had sustained multiple stab wounds all over her body. The examiner ruled the case a homicide and that Javier died from stab wounds to her neck with contributing wounds to her torso. Represented by Marcee Chipman, Monta has been charged with first-degree murder and knife allegations and faces several decades in prison if convicted. Monta, who is battling cancer according to his attorney, appeared in court in a dark blue jail uniform and handcuffs and wore a medical mask that covered his mouth and nose. He listened silently to his Tagalog court interpreter throughout the first day of the hearing. His parents attended the hearing. Monta is being held medical unit of the San Diego Central Jail.The case is scheduled to come before the court Sept. 11, according Grasso.
during robberies By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — On Aug. 16, two Riverside men were convicted of stealing 123 iPads, more than 100 laptops and other electronic devices from county schools over a two-month period. In the Encinitas Union School District, laptops were taken from Eda Harris and El Camino Creek. The burglars also hit Cardiff Elementary twice, according to Deputy District Attorney Brendan McHugh. Trevor Williams, 21, was
sentenced to seven years in prison. Eyon Zimmerman, 19, was given five years behind bars. Last month, each man pleaded guilty to burglary charges. They also admitted that they committed the crimes to aid the Riverside Edgemont/Dorner Blocc gang, McHugh said. A third defendant, 21year-old Thomas Earl Burleson, was convicted of burglary and other charges during trial and will be sentenced next week. Unlike Zimmerman and Williams, Burleson wasn’t convicted of gang charges, McHugh said. McHugh said it’s estimated that losses, including the
stolen electronic devices and damage done to schools during the break-ins, total $250,000. A judge at a restitution hearing in late September will decide how much the defendants will have to repay. The burglary spree began this past November. Not long after, law enforcement officials recovered one of the stolen iPads, which linked the three men to the robberies. After obtaining a warrant, the Sheriff’s Department analyzed cell phone records that pinned the defendants to the school areas the nights of the breakins. Also, text messages and
Council approves water rate increases By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — The City Council unanimously backed a double rate hike at a San Dieguito Water District (SDWD) meeting on Wednesday. As a result, rates will jump 8.1 percent for the average SDWD customer beginning in September. Another rate increase, as much as 8.5 percent, will hit in July 2014. If SDWD’s finances improve over the next year, SDWD staff will recommend a rate increase of less than 8.5 percent for July 2014, said Bill O’Donnell, assistant general manager of the water district. O’Donnell said SDWD proposed the increase because potable water costs are expected to rise 38 percent for SDWD this year. That’s because the district won’t be able to get as much water from Lake Hodges. The city of San Diego recently started drawing water from Lake Hodges, meaning there’s less for SDWD. Additionally, a drought this year translated to a depleted Lake Hodges supply. And SDWD needs to contribute more money to a 10-year capital improvement plan, which is projected to cost $17.8 million.
Much of that money is going toward the Badger Filtration Plant. Mayor Teresa Barth said the facility is critical for treating local sources of water, making SDWD less reliant on costly imported water. “By maintaining the Badger Filtration Plant…we’re maintaining our water security for this area,” Barth said. More than 13,000 notices about the rate hike were sent to residents. SDWD received 124 letters objecting to the rate increase. One of the letters came from Michael George, who spoke during the public hearing on behalf of a homeowners association representing 98 homes. “The middle class is being squeezed,” George said. “Salaries and wages are pretty stagnant. Yet in that same period of time, you see outrageous increases for services.” The district charges the average residential customer $111 every two months. With the September hike, that will rise to $120.50. And if the maximum 8.5 percent is settled on come next July, water bills would jump to more than $130. Those figures don’t include a roughly $5 fee
imposed by the county on top of each bi-monthly bill. As well as usage charges, the City Council also approved increases in fixed, bi-monthly meter charges. Most residential customers are served by 5/8- to 3/4-inch meters. For them, the bimonthly charge is going up from $33.5 to $36.4, effective July 2014. Resident Lynn Marr attacked the increase in meter charges, calling it a “regressive tax.” Further, she called upon executives at the water district to take a pay cut to keep down rates. SDWD budgeted $13.9 million revenues for this fiscal year — a total that doesn’t include the September increase. Expenditures are estimated at $15.6 million. The adopted rate increase is expected to bring in an additional $985,000 in revenue this year. SDWD serves 38,000 customers in Leucadia, Old Encinitas, Cardiff and parts of New Encinitas. The Olivenhain Municipal Water District covers the eastern part of town. Prior to this rate increase, the last one was two years ago. That resulted in water bills going up by 13 percent.
their Internet history further implicated the defendants, according to McHugh. On Jan. 30, the defendants were stopped at a Temecula checkpoint, which wasn’t connected to the investigation. McHugh noted their car was searched because they were acting suspicious and an agent smelled marijuana smoke. Officials recovered 24 iPads, a projector, a laptop and a bolt cutter from the car and arrested the defendants. Of the iPads stolen during the string of school burglaries, a total of 28 were recovered. McHugh said it’s assumed the rest were sold.
Police investigate suspicious death By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — Police are investigating the death of 21-year-old Louiegie Bermas, whose body was found on the 600 block of Arthur Avenue, in the Mesa Margarita neighborhood, on Aug. 14. Bermas’ body was discovered at 5:30 a.m. and reported to police. The exact cause, time and location of his death is still under investigation. Police said there was evidence of trauma to Bermas’ body, but did not give further details about his injuries. “We’re waiting for the results of the autopsy,” Sgt. Matt Christensen said. “It’s not yet determined to be an official homicide, but we assume it is.” Police have disclosed that a group confronted Bermas and a companion in the area of Arthur Avenue and East Parker Street. Bermas’ companion sustained nonlife-threatening injuries in the same incident. “There were two victims, the second victim survived,” Christensen said. Two groups of individuals were involved in the incident, but the occurrence has not been determined to be gang-related at this time. The incident may be related to other criminal activity. Police are still interviewing potential witnesses and seeking additional information. Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Marilyn Johnson at (760) 435-4732.

Oceanside looks to Commission looks for tools to keep rural balance further consolidate By Rachel Stine
By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — City Council discussion on approving the bylaws of the Integrated Waste Commission ended with a council recommendation to consolidate the Integrated Waste Commission with the Utilities Commission on Aug. 21. The Integrated Waste Commission advises City Council on waste disposal, transfer, management and reduction. New responsibilities the council voted down in favor of consolidating the commission with the Utilities Commission include advising City Council on green waste programs, construction waste programs, the zero waste plan and environmental education. Councilman Jack Feller questioned the need for the Integrated Waste Commission and the city’s push for zero waste. “We’ve made more than enough of an effort,� Feller said. “What’s required of us?� Councilwoman Esther Sanchez said reducing waste is more than meeting the letter of the law. “Reducing waste makes our city better,� Sanchez said. “Why would we ever think of dropping this?� Sanchez did not give a name of a commissioner, but said it looks like Feller’s recommendation is “going after certain people who are on the commission.� “It’s unethical and wrong,� Sanchez said. Feller said he is not going after anyone on the commissions, but giving consideration to staff’s time. “Colleen (Foster, management analyst of solid waste and recycling) is doing everything - partnerships between the city and school district, the city and waste hauler,� Feller said. “This is not an attack on people, it’s a way to clear up some of Colleen’s time.� Councilman Jerry Kern recommended the Integrated Waste Commission be consolidated with the Utilities Commission, that advises City Council on the utility budget, capital improvements, water conservation plan, storm drains plan, water fees, sewage spillage and breaks, and support on opposition to the Gregory Canyon Landfill. “All programs will continue to be implemented,� Kern said. “It’s better for staff if they don’t have to attend another committee. We’re streamlining government, everything comes to one commission.� Presently there are seven volunteer members on the Integrated Waste Commission and seven on the Utilities Commission. Sanchez voiced concern that consolidating the commissions will diminish public input in matters that include city budgets and contracts. She added less citizen involvement will raise more questions from residents and end up taking additional staff time to answer those questions. “It ensures there’s a pub-
lic eye to this,� Sanchez said. “Cutting out public input isn’t going to decrease staff time it’s going to increase it.� Mayor Jim Wood acknowledged that the city has already reduced its commissions and committees from 27 to 16, and in the process received complaints from residents. “We’re probably best to get rid of all commissions, they’re wasting staff’s time — that’s what the voting majority is saying here,� Wood said. Feller said consolidating the commissions would still allow input from residents. “People will still have a voice,� Feller said. City Council voted 2-3 on the Integrated Waste Commission bylaws, with no votes from Kern, Felien and Feller. Then City Council voted 3-2 on staff returning with recommendations to consolidate the Integrated Waste Commission and Utilities Commission, with no votes from Wood and Sanchez.
CARLSBAD — Stirred by a proposal to divide a small, rural property into parcels for several homes, the Planning Commission requested to further examine the city’s mechanisms for balancing Carlsbad’s more rural areas with development. At the Aug. 21 Planning Commission meeting, Kraemer Land Company, Inc., brought forth a proposal to demolish three homes on a 2.73-acre lot off of Buena Vista Way and Valley Street and divide the land into 11 single-family home lots. No homes would be built as part of the project, but the land would be prepared for future development. After a few questions about driveway placement and a homeowners’ association, the commissioners agreed that the project met all city standards. No one from the public commented on the item. Yet Commissioner Hap L’Heureux questioned how the project would impact

In the mean time, the Planning Commission approved the Buena Vista Way project because it met all of the city’s requirements.

FAA rejects North County airline’s certification application By Rachel Stine
CARLSBAD — The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) rejected North County’s first airline’s initial certification application, deeming it “incomplete” and “inaccurate,” according to a letter sent to the airline’s founder on Aug. 7. California Pacific Airlines (CP Air) began its application process with the FAA several years ago in the hopes of operating 15 daily nonstop flights from Carlsbad’s McClellan-
Palomar Airport to Sacramento, Oakland, San Jose, Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Cabo San Lucas. Though the airline’s officials intended for operations to take off in 2012, CP Air’s application was initially stalled due to FAA sequestration budget cuts. Having resumed its review of airline certification applications, the FAA sent CP Air founder Ted Vallas a letter that cited numerous errors in the airlines’ application. The letter also listed inaccurate responses to
Federal Aviation Regulations and the failing of half of the Safety Attribution Inspections. “We rejected CP Air's formal application for certification due to a number of deficiencies,” said Ian Gregor, the public affairs manager of the FAA Pacific Division. “We agree there were errors,” said CP Air CEO and President John Selvaggio. But he qualified the errors identified in CP Air’s application, saying that the FAA’s application evaluation is “subjective.” “Different people reviewing these materials have different opinions on what the right answers are,” he said. He said that CP Air will resubmit its application materials before the Sept. 13 dead-

Selvaggio added that CP be meeting with FAA authorities next week to discuss the Air intends on gaining the necessary FAA certification by the end of the year and will begin flying three months after obtaining that approval. “This is not a death sentence for the airline,” he said.

tification, the airline has leased its only aircraft, a 70passenger Embraer 170, to Honeywell in Phoenix, Ariz. Selvaggio stated that Embraer has frozen the lease on the plane until CP Air is operational so investors will not have to finance the $200,000 monthly rental cost of the plane. However, CP Air investors are still on the hook for current operational costs, which Selvaggio called “relatively minor.” Selvaggio said he continues to manage most of CP Air’s operations, but Vallas, who is over 90 years old, still contributes to some management tasks. He said that Vallas would most likely retire from his position at CP Air after the airline receives FAA certification and begins flying.

SDG&E rates set to increase next month By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — SDG&E representatives told business owners and residents at the August MainStreet Morning Meeting that utility rates will increase for all San Diego County business customers and a quarter of its residential customers come September. The approved increase in SDG&E operations costs will impact all customers who use more than 500 kilowatt hours of electricity a month, and hit tier III and IV residential customers the hardest. The current rate structure charges residential customers who use more electricity a higher fee per kilowatt hour once they exceed base level usage. This rate structure was adopted in 2001 during the energy crisis as a way to
nudge customers to use less electricity. It did serve its purpose. “San Diego is the most responsive to the call for conservation in the state,” Stephanie Donovan, SDG&E senior communications manager, said. Today, the rate structure is outdated. It does not take into account the wide range of kilowatt hours needed by customers. “There’s a need for an overhaul of the rate structure,” Donovan said. Donovan said residential customers who live in areas that require air conditioning or who do not work outside of the home will use more than the current base level even if they are conserving energy. “Most people do what they can do towards energy TURN TO RATES ON A24
This past weekend members of the public were treated to a preview of the latest installment in the saga of San Marcos Unified School District’s rise from moribund to magnificent. On Saturday visitors were invited to tour the new Knights Center pavilion at the site of San Marcos High School (SMHS), currently undergoing a complete reconstruction after demolition of the 50-year old campus.
In case you are wondering why “pavilion” and not “gymnasium”, well — there are classrooms, a dance studio, weight training room, and lots of windows — very un-gym-like. The transformation of the SMHS campus from its original, unappealing look to what will be unquestionably one of the highest of high-quality high school campuses in North County — if not in the entire — county marks an image turnaround for the school that is long overdue, even if it was never really necessary or fair. For years students, faculty, parents, and administrators at the school and
district labored under the misapplied perception from outside that San Marcos High School and the school district itself were substandard, mostly due to visual cues — aging schools and a high percentage of minority students. Thanks to the hard work of these same groups over many years, that perception is now changing. The reconstruction of San Marcos High School and its location at the western gateway to the city of San Marcos serves as an announcement to the community that San Marcos places a high value on the education of its children, and values quality in its
development. This hasn’t come without a price, however. Funding for reconstruction of SMHS, as well as other, smaller projects, came about through passage of the Proposition K school bond in 2010, which was the largest voter-approved school bond authorization in California at the time. To help ensure its passage, Prop. K promised voters that the bond repayment rate would be held at not more than $44 per $100,000 of assessed valuation.

Beathard still searching for that perfect wave Jay Paris The face and voice were familiar, if not the digits. “Excuse me,” the tanned senior citizen said, “is this where you register for the 35-39 age-group?” Bobby Beathard was back, cracking jokes and crunching numbers. Beathard, the former Chargers general manager, was at the same place he is every August: the World B o d y s u r f i n g Championships near the Oceanside Pier. “We don’t plan anything for this time of the year,” Beathard said. “This is fun.” So is Beathard, 76, serving as a reminder of electric memories, like those great Chargers teams he built. Ah, 1994, back when the Chargers meant the Super Bowl and not a super rebuilding project. But one also remembers the clunkers Beathard assembled, and did he really draft Ryan Leaf? Beathard’s fingerprints were on the good, bad and Bolt ugly, and his Cheshire grin is just as wide when discussing them all. In this era when NFL general managers seldom smile and play every card snug to the vest, Beathard is a refreshing dose from a different time. The irrepressible Beathard was hell bent on constructing solid Chargers rosters, always, of course, in his own zany manner. Status quo be damned, Beathard would swap first-
round picks, take fliers on players far from the college football factories and try to find a needle while others searched for the haystack. But he also had balance, embracing the coastal North County lifestyle like an undrafted gem, jumping in the ocean from Swami’s to Stone Steps with alarming regularity. “He used to call me every day, tell me how many waves he rode and how long he was out,” said Teddy, an old friend from Santa Monica. “I couldn’t believe it when he moved.” The surf rat did the dosy doe to Tennessee years ago, a waltz few would have predicted. But the lure of catching his grandsons play prep football trumped catching tasty tubes near his old Leucadia digs. Those kids have now grown: C.J. Beathard could be Iowa’s starting quarterback; Bobo Beathard is a running back at Appalachian State. But Beathard stayed forever young, just like his August trips to Oceanside never revealed an expiration date. Beathard, who finished sixth Sunday in the 65-and-older division, led everyone in backslaps and being the center of tales of shifting tides gone by. “I’ve been doing it for so many years, that at my age, it’s about the seeing all these guys that have been doing it for so long,” Beathard said. “They still have the passion to get in the ocean and it’s fun. Especially when you get good waves.” On this day, Neptune sent the good stuff elsewhere.

“I came all the way from Tennessee to see these big waves,” Beathard joked, hoping he could rib Mother Nature into supplying something with size. Beathard dipped his toe in and was given a reminder of the chilly Pacific Ocean. After vacationing on the East Coast and splashing in its warm waters, Beathard reached for some support. “I did bring a wet suit,” he said, sheepishly. “I’m going to be a wimp and wear it.” Just then someone interrupted, wanting to say ‘hello.’ Then there was the son of someone else, excited to meet someone whose imprint on the NFL shows seven Super Bowl appearances with Kansas City, Miami, Washington and, of course, San Diego. “Hey aren’t you too old to enter this?” Beathard told the strapping teenager, with his hair askew — much like Beathard’s. The years have been kind to Beathard, his youthful exuberance evident. He was always a mixture of Huck Finn and the absentminded professor, and we’re happy to report that hasn’t changed. What’s different, and something Beathard couldn’t ignore, was visiting Oceanside minus a surf session with Junior Seau. The two shared their love for the water, laughs and all things Chargers. Seau is gone, but he’ll always be Beathard’s first pick when he was on the Chargers’ watch. “It still seems so hard to believe,” Beathard said. “Even when I come out here I accidentally think I’m going to see Junior when I get here, because I always did. I drove by Oceanside High School the other day and thought again how unbelievable it is.” Seau was one of a kind. Ditto Beathard. May they’ll surf again and wouldn’t it be just like the unconventional Beathard to pull it off.

Chargers Hall of Fame punter Darren Bennett and current punter Mike Scifres continue strong bond By Tony Cagala
SAN DIEGO — Along the sidelines during a recent practice at Chargers Park, Darren Bennett was trying to communicate to one of the players some 70-odd yards away. Bennett, the former Chargers punter and team Hall of Famer was making short, repeated strokes along the ground with his foot. The message’s intended recipient — current Chargers punter Mike Scifres. “He’s super critical of himself,” said Bennett of his protégé.“Sometimes I just ask him how he’s going and he goes into the whole analytics of his punts.” In between punts, some angling off to the right, others wobbling through the air, Scifres continued to look in the direction of Bennett, who repeated the short stroke with his foot. Whatever the message being sent was Scifres received it, letting his mentor know by booming a tight spiraling football high into the sky off his foot, landing only a few yards in front of where Bennett was standing. Bennett signaled his approval, even admiration, with the universally known thumbs up. “He’s analyzing, knowing that he’s not perfect,” said Bennett. “And he’s trying to get better every day, and I think that’ll drive him to punt for as long as he wants to.” In their roughly 10 year mentorship advice still flows freely between the two, even though Bennett said what Scifres has done on the field has far surpassed what he ever did. But what is it that separates Scifres from the other 31 punters in the league? For Bennett, he said, it’s Scifres’ hang time.“He has the best hang time probably in the history of the game,” he said. “Mike’s one of the few that can hit a 5 1/2 second hang (time). Mike could hit those 70-yard, 4 second (punts) if he wanted to, but they’re not good team punts a lot of the time. He’s an unselfish team punter. “He sacrifices his average at times for the best of the team, and I think he doesn’t get recognized enough for

that,” Bennett said. Even so, Scifres, the Chargers’ all-time leader for punting averages, set a new team record last year having averaged 48.3 yards per punt. Scifres, who grew up playing baseball and soccer in Louisiana, had no idea he would become a punter, let alone one in the NFL. During his college years, he red shirted at Western Illinois, his coaches told him to work on all aspects of kicking from field goals to punting. By his sophomore year he was having a good enough season that he and some other teammates went to an NFL camp. While there Scifres said he was encouraged even more to continue honing his kicking skills, and that, he added, gave him more of a reason to take it more seriously. Since being drafted by the Chargers in 2003, Scifres would learn from Bennett, including the punt that brought Bennett so much success — the drop punt. Scifres said it took him a year to figure out, but now he’s so comfortable with it that,

depending on where he’s punting from on the field and depending on the weather conditions, he can control the ball up to 40 yards. “It’s a great club to have in your bag,” he said. “And with the returners as they are…you got to have that punt in your bag. You’ve got to make them think a little bit.” That “unselfishness,” too is something that Scifres picked up under the tutelage of Bennett where, during his rookie year watching him, Scifres said it really sunk in that you had to have more hang time than distance because all 32 return men are very dangerous. Scifres, in kind, has taken on the role of mentor once again this season, helping rookie punter Richard Kent throughout training camp. “A lot of that goes back to how Darren treated me when I got here,” said Scifres. Bennett didn’t see him as a threat to take away his job when he got drafted, but rather he took it upon himself to help Scifres better understand the game. “When the young guys come in and they ask some of the same questions that I was asking (Bennett), I have the answers. Because now, I’ve lived every single scenario that Darren threw at me in my rookie year,” Scifres said. As for whether the role of a punter is still fun: “Absolutely,” he said. “I enjoy every minute of it. I don’t take the hits these guys (teammates) take (and) my body works.”

Kids for Peace spend day spreading good things CARLSBAD — Youth from all over San Diego gathered in Carlsbad on Aug. 10 for the Great Kindness Challenge, presented by Kids for Peace, a San Diegobased nonprofit. The event was part of one day where youth around the world do as many kind acts as possible, choosing from a 50-item downloadable checklist of suggestions. They could choose activities such as complimenting five people, bringing treats to firefighters, picking up trash and making sack lunches for the homeless. The event began at the Kids for Peace Headquarters, 3303 James Drive, visiting local fire stations and libraries to bring treats and gratitude. Next they gathered at Pine Avenue Park to pick up trash, push friends on swings, place hearts on cars and more. From the park, the children paraded down to Tamarack Beach holding “happy signs” and brought water to lifeguards, cleaned the beach, fed the birds and complimented each other along the way. Their final stop was Sunrise Senior Living where they played board games with senior citizens and made new friends. The annual Kids for Peace event aims to inspire
youth in 100 countries, who believe that simple acts of kindness will lead to world peace. The checklist, available in 13 languages, has already been downloaded in 69 countries. For more information about the Kids for Peace, kidsforpeaceglobal.org Kids for Peace is a Carlsbad-based global nonprofit dedicated to uplifting our world through love and action. Its mission is to cultivate every child’s innate ability to foster peace through cross-cultural experiences and hands-on arts, service and environmental projects.

Temecula holds a lot of tempting and tasty adventures E’LOUISE ONDASH Hit the Road Juanita Koth spent a lot of time on horseback in the Temecula Valley in the 1980s. As a teen who grew up in North County, she helped care for horses of friends and relatives who lived in Temecula. She remembers riding in the open, rolling hills which, at that time, served as a backdrop for only a handful of wineries. Today, Koth is still in the saddle, but as the owner and guide for Gaits in the Grapes, a company that provides custom trail adventures for folks with their own horses. (“No rentals!”) “Temecula is now a beautiful huge community, but it still has a rural flavor,” Koth says. “We hope to bring in horse owners who want to enjoy all the things that Temecula has to offer.” And that’s quite a list. The valley, about an hour’s drive from North County, has its historic Old Town, golf, resorts and spas, a casino, shopping, dining, museums, horseback riding, a casino, hot air ballooning and wineries. And trails. “Miles and miles of trails,” Koth emphasizes, “but they are unmarked so no one
knows where they are.” And that’s where Gaits in the Grapes comes in. “If you come to Temecula Valley with your horse, you want to ride the best trails. If you want mountains, we’ll take you into the mountains. If you want a winery, we’ll do a winery. Every tour is customized.” Koth and her husband and business partner, Steve, have arrangements with five wineries and nearby Galway Downs polo field that allow them to “stage” an area where riders can begin and end their trail adventures. “First, we might ride for three to five hours, come back, and the riders will have lunch — maybe a food and wine pairing,” Koth explains. “While they’re doing that, we take care of the horses, pick up the poop, lay straw and keep away the bachelorettes who might be at the winery for a party. Sometimes they want to get too friendly with the horses, but the owners will know that their horses will not be left unattended.” Temecula Valley began its transformation from cattle ranch to “semi-urban pastoral” in the late 1960s after the land was sold to developers who envisioned a masterplanned community. They named it Rancho California, but residents eventually voted to return the name to its Native American roots. There’s debate about the meaning of Temecula, but most like “land where the sun
shines through the mist” — fitting because of its unique microclimate that provides perfect conditions for growing grapes. While the population swelled in the 1970s because of the valley’s affordable housing, pioneering vintners began planting. The first winery, Calloway, was founded in 1974. Today, nearly 40 wineries line the two bucolic corridors of Rancho California and De Portola roads, not far from Temecula’s historic Old Town. Stroll down Front Street and you’ll find Pennypickle’s Workshop Children’s Museum, an award-winning, hands-on museum with lots of gadgets that beg to be pushed, pulled, pressed and turned. Not far away: the Old Town Sweet Shop, with its hard-to-resist ice cream, oldtime candies and ginormous caramel apples additionally covered in chocolate, nuts and marshmallows. Other boutiques include the Temecula Lavender Company, which offers handcrafted, small-batch oils, candles, soaps, scrubs and salts created from locally grown lavender; Old Town Rootbeer Company with more root beers and soft drinks than you ever imagined existed, including its deep, rich homemade brew; and the Temecula Olive Oil Company which will change your mind about olive oils; they are not all alike.

Unlike other colleges, MiraCosta College does not have a deadline for college applications.That policy leaves the door open longer for more students to enroll. “We don’t want to close the door to potential students,” Dick Robertson, vice president of student services, said.

Students on the wait list are admitted on a first on the list, first to get in basis. In some cases an additional class will be added to accommodate students’
demand to attend the course. “I teach Communications 101 and already have 10 people on the waiting list,”Broom said. Student financial aid is another highly impacted department on campus. “Students are trying to figure out how to pay for classes,” Broom said.“Last week the line was out the door and around the building.A lot of it has to do with people waiting until the last minute to decide to go to college, over summer, and scrambling to get in.” Parking is another challenge. “It’s a nightmare the first week of classes,” Broom said. Students are encouraged to take public transportation, car pool, and get to campus early to allow enough time for parking. Students can park in any student parking lot during the first week of classes without a parking pass. After that a parking pass is required. Despite the extra challenges staff is geared up to greet students with smiles and information on the first days of classes. “It’s an exciting new year and great time to be on campus,”Broom said.“Thursday we have a college hour with free food and music. It’s a great week to be here.”

Novel ideas are growing from Encinitas school’s farm By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — Mim Michelove has big plans for a one-acre farm next to Ocean Knoll Elementary. A greenhouse constructed from plastic bottles, one of the pieces of the vision, is nearly finished. “The greenhouse is a nice legacy for the sixth grade class that graduated,” said Michelove, the co-founder of Healthy Day Partners, a nonprofit that oversees the garden. This spring, the sixth graders at Ocean Knoll Elementary began work on the greenhouse. They collected plastic bottles and put plastic bags into them, making “eco-bricks.” From there, they placed the bottles between chicken wire panels. The greenhouse drove home lessons the students were learning about the impact of plastic bottles on the environment. “They were given a comprehensive lesson about recycling and reusing by their teacher,” Michelove said. “The greenhouse put what they learned into practice.” For students, the project was also a lesson in the phrase “think globally, act locally,” Michelove said. The Solana Beach Eco Rotary kickstarted the project by telling Michelove and the Encinitas Union School District about the greenhouse concept, which was pioneered by the nonprofit Hug It Forward. Since inception, Hug It Forward has constructed 30 schools from plastic bottles in Latin America. From an engineering perspective, plastic bottles are a viable construction alternative. That’s because they’re insulating and don’t break down. And if covered in stucco, they’re strong enough to withstand an earthquake. Plus, plastic bottles make economic sense, halving the cost of building a school in third world countries, according to Maureen Duncan, an Encinitas resident who built plastic-bottle schools in Guatemala. Duncan was inspired to visit Guatemala and raise money for Hug it Forward after learn-

ing about the group from the Solana Beach Eco Rotary.While abroad, she arranged a Skype session between Ocean Knoll and Guatemalan students in a remote village. “The (Guatemalan) kids already knew about building with plastic bottles,” Duncan said. “It was really neat for them to share with the Encinitas students and let them know how it’s done.” On a sunny afternoon, Duncan and other volunteers stacked the last of the collected plastic bottles, finishing the greenhouse’s walls. It’s expected the structure will debut in one month.

All that remains: placing the roof, which the Leichtag Foundation will build out of recyclable materials. The greenhouse was primarily funded by a $1,000 grant from the Coastal Community Foundation. Also, local framer Greg Wright donated his time and materials. Once completed, the greenhouse will be the first of its kind in California, and one of the few in the nation. Beyond the greenhouse, the farm promotes the think globally, act locally concept in other ways. For instance, in the near future, students
at Ocean Knoll will plant crops from around the world that are in danger of going extinct as part of the Global Seed Saving Project. Debris once blanketed the land where the farm is now, but that changed beginning with the farm’s inception a year ago. Neighbors, district parents and others came together to aid Michelove in planting and sprucing up the land. Michelove said she spearheaded the farm to teach the surrounding community about the importance of eating healthy. “This farm is in a pocket of Encinitas that is somewhat underserved,” Michelove said. “It’s important to teach this particular population of children and its families.” Produce from the farm’s planter beds goes to the district’s nine schools.For example,during the past six weeks,15 gallons of pizza sauce were made from the farm’s tomatoes and peppers. And future harvests will only be larger. Over the next month, fruit trees will be planted, along with more crop beds. Eventually, the goal is to feed residents in need with some of the farm’s produce. Jim Farely, president and CEO of the Leichtag Foundation, cited a statistic from the nonprofit Feeding America that one in five San Diegans doesn’t know where their next meal is coming from. Hence, an abundance of locally grown produce for residents is important for fighting hunger. “Having access to that local tomato or zucchini means people are more likely to eat and eat healthy,” Farely said. Farely said Encinitas is positioning itself as a leader in locally grown produce by getting back to its agricultural roots. Along with the Ocean Knoll farm, the Leichtag Foundation is currently drawing up plans to revamp Ecke Ranch with innovative farming in mind. Not to mention, a joint community and school farm on Quail Gardens Drive is taking root. “We feel this important cluster will provide for our community,” Farely said.

San Diego moves up the wine vine FRANK MANGIO
Taste of Wine San Diego County’s wineries recently were doing the Bacchus boogie and toasting a state court when it sided with a county ordinance that is bringing in a lot more boutique wineries to the backcountry. It made permanent a lower court ruling of a winery initiative reducing costly regulations and allowing public tasting rooms through a tiered permit system tied to the size of the operation. According to SD Metro, the on-line business news source, the Ramona Valley now boasts 20-wine tasting rooms recently, compared to

one when the ordinance was approved a few years ago. County Supervisor Dianne Jacob, the spearhead of this movement is leading efforts to craft a similar ordi-
nance for microbreweries, cheese operations and other agri-based ventures in rural areas. One winery that looked forward to the new, more
favorable climate for winemakers is Altipiano with longtime San Diegans Peter and Denise Clarke. She came out of the Air Force and he came out of the world of law. Their vineyard is now in its 5th year with 12 tons of grapes now being picked. They now have built a tasting and barrel room. Varietals include Cabernet Franc ($38), Zinfandel ($35.), Cabernet Sauvignon ($30), Merlot ($28), and Chardonnay ($19). A Super Tuscan blend is coming as work commences on a Sangiovese and a Barbera grape. Both are Italian favorites. Just beyond Ramona, the sophisticated Milagro Farm has 10,000 vines with 11 estate varietals, making it the largest in the Ramona AVA. Their newly released 2012 Sauvignon Blanc was awarded “Best of San Diego County” and a Double Gold Medal at the California-wide San Diego County Fair Wine Competition. The winemaker is Jim Hart, a second-generation winemaker whose family owns Hart Winery of Temecula. Last year’s county Avocado crop was way down due mainly to water costs. Some farmers who are now in that business, are planning to switch to wine grapes and expect to save thousands in water bills and attract visitors, thanks to the easier rules regarding tasting rooms. Stay tuned, lots more wineries to come in San Diego County. “I Love This Business!” — Joey Alfano, new owner of Tuscany.

Food, wine paired together expertly at Sublime Tavern DAVID BOYLAN Lick the Plate It’s always a good sign when a restaurant brings in a wine pro like Chuck Herrold and teams him with a seasoned chef like Josh Richardi. That’s exactly what James Limjoco did at his third restaurant venture, Sublime Tavern in Del Mar. And not only does Herrold know his wine, he also expertly paired my dining companion’s multicourse meal with craft beer from their extensive offerings on tap. More on that later. Herrold wears two hats at Sublime — manager and sommelier. He spent 13 years with Ruth’s Chris Steak House followed by four years at West Steak and Seafood in Carlsbad. Herrold joined Sublime after a mutual friend put him in touch with owner Limjoco and was excited to join his newest venture in Del Mar. Executive Chef Richardi has quite a resume himself. Born and raised in Orlando, Fla., Richardi realized it was his destiny to be
a chef when he discovered that his great grandfather had owned a restaurant in Shanghai. Richardi’s diverse skills were developed and honed in the kitchen when he completed the acclaimed Walt Disney World Sous Chef apprenticeship program. Under the guidance of Master Chef Waldo Brun, Richardi learned every aspect of the kitchen, from prep to pastry skills. In 1995 he accepted the position as kitchen supervisor at Kirkwood Ski Resort in Lake Tahoe. After a year of perfecting his talents at this world-renowned resort, Richardi settled in the San Diego area where he continued to expand on his culinary skills working at numerous restaurants including Valencia Resort & Spa, Santaluz Country Club and Roppongi Restaurant and Sushi Bar. At Sublime Tavern, Richardi has collaborated with both Limjoco and Sommelier Herrold to create an extensive menu of gourmet, yet approachable, dishes that celebrate local, seasonal flavors. “Collaborating with James and Chuck on this menu has been a rewarding creative TURN TO LICK THE PLATE ON A17

Alfano finally gets to be captain of the ship with his purchase recently of Tuscany, the popular Italian Restaurant and Lounge in La Costa. “I love this business,” Alfano said. “If you don’t like people, you don’t belong in a restaurant. Tuscany has a great base of customers; after 23 years it needs to get to the next level. My business partner and musician Danny DiCarlo and I have plans to improve the wine and food menu and introduce a supper-club atmosphere, along with a new patio-dining feature. We’ll have concerts once a month and live lounge music every night.” We brought in Robert Gaffney from La Costa Resort as Tuscany’s Executive Chef and are already making improvements in the menu.” Howie Ovedia has been the talented “flair” bartender at Tuscany for 20 years. Regulars all know him for his great smile and his shows with flair bottle acrobatics, and he mixes a great drink. “Cosmopolitans and Martinis are still in demand these days,” he declared. “With red wines, everyone loves blends. Our house Bordeaux is the most requested.”

experience, allowing me to be innovative while still developing dishes that are both approachable and palatable,” Richardi said. “Sublime Tavern is a way for me to take all of my experiences, from the kitchen to the front of the house, and combine them into a cuisine that reflects my culinary adventures over the years.” Under the direction of Limjoco, Richardi is enjoying the opportunity to run a kitchen and continues to perfect his many culinary skills. When he is not cooking, you can find him surfing the many local spots where he resides in Leucadia. OK, so back to those recent meals they paired so expertly with wine and beer. Our first courses were: Grass Fed Beef Tips with caramelized sweet onions, mushrooms, blue cheese in a red wine sauce paired with Pallus Chinon Loire Valley Cabernet Franc and a Rip Current Stringer Scottish Ale. That, with an Ahi Poke Tostada-Sashimi grade tuna, Napa cabbage slaw, and sriracha crème paired with a Menetou Salon Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc and an Iron Fist Hired Hand. We were off to a great start. Next up was a salad sampling featuring their Strawberry Spinach Salad, Watermelon and wild Arugala salad, Cobb Wedge, and Del Mar grilled Caesar with grilled anchovies. There was a lot going on with all these salads but Herrold came through again pairing a Chalone Estate Chardonnay and a Great Divide Heyday. A pizza came out next, and not just any pizza. It was their “Getting Figgy With It” pizza that included figs, prosciutto, parmesan, and a balsamic

glaze. Herrold’s pairing of the Foxen Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir and Port Brewing Wipeout was spot on. I will back specifically for that pizza and pinot noir combo. I requested the Wild Boar Bolognese Fettuccini and Herrold came through on-the-spot with a Neyers Evangelho Contra Costa County Mourvedre. I know nothing about that wine but it sure worked well. Chef Richardi’s favorite dish is the Duroc Pan Roasted Pork Chop with pork shoulder and potato hash and caramelized apple confit creamy whole grain mustard sauce. The Renwood Amador County Zinfandel was a big wine to go with a hearty dish and the beer pairing was Dogfish Head Theobroma. You can even bring your vegan friends to Sublime. Just point them in the direction of the Coastal Vegan Bounty with corn and ginger quinoa, lemongrass coconut sauce, wild mushrooms and mixed beets.

Tired of voles gnawing on your fruit trees, gophers snatching your vegetation from below, or rats scuttling up your downspouts? Invite a couple of barn owls over and they’ll gobble up the vermin at a rate of 2,000 a year. The universal party invite they all recognize is a nest box. “Barn owls are incredibly widespread in America, so when you put up your nest box, you’ll start seeing barn owls take roost in them in short order, and then they’ll start going to work for you,” said Tom Stephan, master falconer, raptor expert, and owner of Barn Owl Boxes in Ramona. “Using natural predators is more effective than conventional trapping or poisons, it’s economical, eco-friendly, and protects local wildlife,” he added. Tom and his team of craftsmen hand make every owl box out of Mahogany plywood panels made from recycled materials. For as little as $350 installed, you can get the party started with a basic owl box. And buying a box is a one-time investment, as they cost nothing to maintain and the owls are very good at keeping their nest boxes clean. If you have more to spend, the Hoo’s Hoo box with installed camera is one of their best sellers. Just connect the camera to your TV or computer and enjoy the best reality show you’ll ever watch.

Tom installed “Molly’s Box” in a yard in San Marcos and it’s live-streamed footage became an Internet phenomenon. Tom’s lifelong passion for birds of prey began in 1962 while doing research for a wild animal report in second grade. This led to much climbing of trees to better observe birds, which led to a career as a tree trimmer (and later a certified arborist.) While bidding a job, he noticed an improperly hung owl box in a potential client’s yard. He offered to install it
at the proper height and angle needed to attract owls, and three days later the lady was thrilled to report that a pair of barn owls had begun nesting in it. “This was the first owl nest box I installed.” said Tom. “Now, nearly 25 years later I have over 36,000 under my belt.

MARKETPLACE NEWS Opiate addiction? North County has new treatment plan Opiate dependency is approaching pandemic proportions across the nation. “Drug overdose death rates in the U.S. have more than tripled since 1990. The highest groups at risk are young adults ages 18 to 25 years old. In 2010, 3,000 young adults died from a prescription drug overdose — a 250 percent increase from 1999.” (SAMHSA, 2011). San Diego County is not exempt from this fact. “In 2012 there were 269 prescription drug overdoses. Heroin deaths have been increasing in frequency since 2007, with heroin the most common drug responsible for accidental overdoses in 20-29 year olds. In North County San Diego, there are between 25,000 and 50,000 people that are opiate dependent (unable to function without ongoing ingestion of opiates throughout the day). This is between five and ten percent of the total population of North County (population approximately 500,000).” (SANDAG, 2012). The aforementioned statistics indicate a need for more opiate treatment programs across the country. The specific needs of the opiate addict have for the most part been ignored by society at large either because of ignorance or biases. While opiate addiction is finally being addressed in the media and within our communities, treatment options are just beginning to be uncovered. Opiate dependency has the highest rate of success when medically assisted treatment services are provided. Although traditional drug treatment frowns upon the use of Methadone or Suboxone (medically assisted treatment) as tools to manage opiate withdrawal symptoms in patients, research has shown that there is less than a 1 percent success rate using the abstinence-based models. New, cutting edge treatment of the future is focused on the use of medication to help these patients regain their lives. Dr. Laura Rossi, a trailblazer in the field, recognized the stigma that so many opiate addicted patients faced in the wake of seeking treatment. In her process to provide better care, she met a like-minded woman who shared a similar vision of addressing the specific needs of opiate dependent individuals.

Fifi’s Boudoir is making garments accessible Lingerie isn’t just for special occasions. That’s the message that Amber McClure wants to get out. “You don’t have to have a boyfriend or it doesn’t have to be for a specific occasion. Underwear and panties need to be an everyday occasion,” McClure said. Opened in July, McClure, a Utah transplant, said the inspiration behind Fifi’s Boudoir came from her finding a lack of good service and garments available for women to be comfortable with in their own skin. “Lingerie can be a nice pair of underwear…it doesn’t have to be a corset,” said McClure. Having traveled the world, she’s developed an eye for the quality and styles that she now carries in her boutique. She focuses on carrying plenty of options — all of a good quality, all for a good price. And chances are if McClure isn’t in the boutique, she’s out traveling the world, seeking out garments that aren’t massed produced or that you’d find in any big box stores. Her stock is replaced every two weeks, meaning that every two weeks, there’s going to be something new. McClure and her knowledgeable staff are able to help provide advice for finding the right fit, too. Fifi’s Boudoir only carries

European sizes, instead of the traditional A,B,C or D sizes. The European sizes, McClure said, provide a truer fit. And as in department stores, you won’t be bombarded with harsh lighting, or bustling fitting rooms. Instead, Fifi’s Boudoir was designed with a comfortable, French-style in mind, yet keeping in tune with Leucadia’s fun and “beachy” vibe. Local artist Elizabeth Sullivan helped bring the walls to life with a painted seascape and warm colors. But Fifi’s Boudoir isn’t just about finding the right lingerie; the boutique also carries a wide variety of bathing suits, accessories and jewelry,includ-
ing helping out the Encinitasbased nonprofit SurfAid. By carrying a line of SurfAid merchandise in her boutique, she’s able to help raise awareness for the nonprofit and help them raise money to accomplish their goals. If you’re looking for some good girls’ night out type of fun, Fifi’s Boudoir hosts Girls’ Night Out events each Thursday of every month; and starting in September, McClure will host a Champagne and Painting night where women can sip champagne, receive art instruction and paint their own works all the while bonding with friends and others.
It’s her way of embracing the community, which she’s really excited to be a part of. For more on Fifi’s Boudoir, visit them on Facebook/Fifi’sBoudoir. Their hours on Mondays and Tuesdays are by appointment only, providing a perfect opportunity for brides or other women looking for a private shopping experience. Their regular hours on Wednesday through Sunday are from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. You’ll find Fifi’s Boudoir at 1786 1/2 N. Coast Highway 101 in Leucadia.

Could this be your solution to numbness, neuropathy or burning pain? Do you have any of the following symptoms? Pins and needles feeling? Numbness in the hands or feet? Tingling or burning sensations? Weakness in the arms or legs? Sharp shooting or burning pains? If so, you may have a condition called Peripheral Neuropathy. Numbness, tingling, and pain are an extremely annoying problem. It may come and go...interrupt your sleep...and even make your arms or legs feel weak at times. Maybe you’ve even been to other doctors and they claim all the tests indicate you should feel fine. More Drugs Are Not The Solution. A common treatment for many nerve problems is the ‘take some pills and wait and see’ method. While this may be necessary for temporary relief of severe symptoms, using them long term is no way to live. Some of the more common drugs given include pain pills, anti-seizure mediations, and anti-depressants — all of which can have serious side effects.
My name is Dr. Jeff Listiak. I’ve been helping people with neuropathy and nerve problems for more than seven years. Neuropathy can be caused by Diabetes, Chemotherapy,Toxins, etc. It may also be compounded by poor posture or a degenerating spine stressing the nerves. The good news is that NeuropathyDR™ combination treatments have proven effective in helping patients with these health problems. Here’s what one of my patients had to say: “I had been feeling very sharp pains in my feet… they just felt like they were on fire. I just couldn’t stand it… every night for the last year or two. I’m so excited today to tell Dr Jeff that four days in a row I have felt no pain whatsoever.” — Marilyn You could soon be enjoying life...without those aggravating and life-disrupting problems. Don’t Miss This Limited
Don’t let numbness, tingling and pain hold you back from enjoying life.

REGION — The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has seen a significant reduction in mountain lions killed as a result of new policy implemented in February without a risk to public safety. The new policy allows for more non-lethal options when there is an interaction between a mountain lion and humans. “Last year, I directed the department’s leadership team to evaluate our guidelines on how we respond to interactions with mountain lions and bears to determine how we can do better,” said CDFW Director Charlton H. Bonham. “I’m pleased that we have struck the balance and are witnessing fewer mountain lions killed without sacrificing any wildlife officer’s authority to make the correct public safety call for each situation,” Bonham added. The previous human/wildlife interaction policy evaluation was fast tracked after two notable lethal mountain lion interactions took place at the end of 2012. The stories of these interactions elevated the department’s need to evaluate current policy and to make changes to allow the use of non-lethal means. As part of the evaluation, senior CDFW leadership met with many interested stakeholders from both sides of the
facebook.com/ coastnewsgroup
issue.
Since the new policy was implemented, CDFW has ordered equipment for field staff to better handle a nonlethal means of handling human wildlife conflict calls. Many of the mountain lion and bear incidents that have happened have resulted in hazing wildlife away from the area of high public use or
the darting and relocation of the animal, rather than lethal take. In one incident in January, a lion in Santa Barbara was relocated to the Los Padres National Forest. In another incident in Santa Cruz in May, a lion had fallen into a culvert and could not jump out. He was darted and later
released in the Soquel Demonstration State Forest. These are just two of many incidents that have ended non-lethally. “Sometimes you can find a mountain lion or bear in an unusual location otherwise behaving normally,” said CDFW Law Enforcement Chief Mike Carion. “It isn’t always a threat to

public safety. Every situation is unique. “We are pleased that this policy allows us to evaluate each situation carefully and to choose a solution which allows a co-existence between humans and wildlife while allowing discretion to act when there is a public safety issue.” For more information, visit dfg.ca.gov/wildlife/lion/.

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.

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. Notice is hereby given that RECONTRUST COMPANY, N.A., as duly appointed trustee pursuant to the Deed of Trust executed by ALBERTA GOMEZ DELGADO, A MARRIED WOMAN AS HER SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY, dated 04/21/2006 and recorded 5/3/2006, as Instrument No. 2006-0313238, in Book N/A, Page 17619, of Official Records in the office of the County Recorder of San Diego County, State of California, will sell on 09/20/2013 at 10:00AM, On the grounds of the Scottish Rite Event Center, located at 1895 Camino Del Rio South, San Diego, CA at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash or check as described below, payable in full at time of sale, all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust, in the property situated in said County and State and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 2589 JOANN DRIVE, OCEANSIDE, CA, 92056. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. The total amount of the unpaid balance with interest thereon of the obligation secured by the property to be sold plus reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $473,782.54. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept cashier's checks drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state. Said sale will be made, in an ''AS IS'' condition, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession or encumbrances, to sat-
isfy the indebtedness secured by said Deed of Trust, advances thereunder, with interest as provided, and the unpaid principal of the Note secured by said Deed of Trust with interest thereon as provided in said Note, plus fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. 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 a 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 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 1-800-2818219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco.com, using the file number assigned to this case 13-0004653. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

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.

efficiency,” Donovan said. “People who live in older homes with inefficient appliances don’t always have the income to purchase new appliances, or seniors may have to have the air-conditioning on.” Usage above the base level quickly drives up monthly bills because customers are charged higher rates for additional killowatt hours. Residential tier I users, who use the lowest amount of electricity, are charged 15 cents per kilowatt hour, tier II users are charged 17 cents, tier III users pay 27 cents, and tier IV users, who use the most electricity, pay 29 cents. Donovan said it is still

the same electricity and should not cost more. “The rate cap protected low-income people,” Donovan said. “It outlived its usefulness. There is a huge disparity in rates. It’s not connected to household incomes anymore. “It gets up to a certain point and skyrockets in costs. “We expect some significant changes in how rates are structured in the next few years.” Businesses are charged differently than residential customers. They are charged more when they use electricity at peak demand times. Both businesses and a quarter of residential customers will see a marked increase because the California Public Utilities Commission just recently OK’d the operations rate increase for 2012-15.
This means catch-up costs since 2012 needs to be amortized into bills through 2015. This increase only accounts for general operations charges. SDG&E billing is divided into three categories — general operations, distribution and commodity costs. Approvals for rate changes for these three different parts of the bill presently come at different times. “We understand customers are confused and frustrated,” Donovan said. “We’re pushing to have one time a year that rates will change. We know people want stability and certainty.” Donovan said SDG&E is working with regulatory agencies to bring the timing of billing changes together so that customers can better plan their budgets.
PACIFIC VIEW
Councilwoman Kristin Gaspar also noted she was disappointed by the $13.5 million figure. “It seemed like an opportunity we had was being taken away,” Gaspar said. Gaspar said that even if the city buys Pacific View, it would still have to pay to update the dilapidated property’s infrastructure. And she added that dedicating money to Pacific View means less money for other infrastructure projects. Earlier in the meeting, the City Council heard a report on its financial capacity for large investments like Pacific View. For this fiscal year, city revenues total $56.2 million, while expenditures are $51.4 million, according to Finance Director Tim Nash. Over the next six years, it’s estimated the city will have $5 million in its unappropriated fund that could go toward Pacific View or other projects. Nash noted the Moonlight Beach lifeguard tower, Beacons Beach improvements and sidewalk upgrades are also high on the city’s list of priorities. Some residents said the city could fund a community arts center at Pacific View by renting out some of the space to vendors. Dominic Alcorn said a café or coffee cart could generate revenue for the city. Ron Ranson said the focus should be on artists, not commercial ventures. He argued that, under no circumstances, should housing be built on the property. “We need a more creative society,” Ranson said, adding that it’s “a golden time for Encinitas to come up with something unique.”

work with the community on developing business plans for an arts center. The proposals could include partnerships with nonprofits or businesses. The committee will come back to the City Council with proposals at an undetermined date. The city recently obtained two independent appraisals of Pacific View, one for $7.3 million and another for $3.3 million. Several residents mentioned the appraisal figures during the meeting. The figures were previously known only to city officials following a closed session meeting. Shaffer made the appraisal figures public in an email to a resident because she mistakenly thought a U-T San Diego article had already listed them. During the meeting, she apologized for the mix up. EUSD expects to get its own appraisal soon. Several weeks ago, EUSD Superintendent Tim Baird said that Pacific View could be worth up to $13.5 million — the appraisal amount when the school shuttered in 2003, according to a U-T San Diego article. Resident Sheila Cameron said she was “shocked” to read the $13.5 million figure in the article. This fall, the nonprofit Art Pulse offered $7.5 million for Pacific View. Given that voters have approved various education bonds, Cameron said the district shouldn’t be so greedy. “I think it’s time that the school district thought about what they can do for us,” Cameron said.

Sanchez went on to praise Weiss for putting in long hours as public works director and city manager to get the job done. She also complimented him on his city leadership. “He’s done it in a way that’s respectful to us, the community and residents,” Sanchez said. “He’s an exceptional and wonderful person. He deserves to go to the next step.” Weiss expressed appreciation to City Council and city staff, and satisfaction with achieving a balanced budget Peter Weiss and current budget surplus.

for three years keep repeating the mantra: “Business!” “Business!” “Business!” But I’m seeing “Nothing!” “Nothing!” “Nothing!” Where’s the beef you-probusiness people? Or is it just empty talk? Where’s the quality, thriving business we have a right to expect. A good example of our lazy inertia is exemplified by the state of our pier view amphitheater which locals have long called the “bandshell.” It seems like rock station FM 94/9 used to use the The Jenny Craig Pavilion (USD) and the RIMAC concert facility (UCSD) to host their twiceyearly multi-band concerts over the past 12 years. But the station has found our venue by the sea much more desirable, and now that station and its sister station KIFM stage all their station-sponsored concerts at the pier. The last 94/9 show was in June was a sell-out. The next one, “Independence Jam” is Sept. 21. The problem is that this beachfront concert facility, the only one left in

I believe the stage has been set to meet those challenges without sacrificing services to the community.” He also thanked City Council and city staff for their service and dedication. “I am proud to have been a part of the positive changes we made over the years,”Weiss said. Weiss did not disclose his future plans or potential job opportunities. In his council report Councilman Jack Feller thanked Weiss again for his service as public works director and city manager. “We owe a great debt of gratitude to the public works sector,” Feller said.“They try to make this city the best in North County, the best in the county, the best in the state,and I think we are. That’s a tribute to public works.” Following Weiss’ statement the City Council and chamber audience stood and applauded Weiss for the job he has done as city manager.
Southern California, would be used even more if only the place was improved with a new stage, sound system infrastructure and dressing rooms. But instead we are languishing with a depressionera stage that was great for its time but now represents such a wasted opportunity in 2013. All the city had to do was to find a casino or an auto manufacturer to invest in naming rights, and this diamond in the rough could have used the hundreds of thousands of dollars in sponsorship money to build a state of the art facility. No, we settled on naming it after Junior Seau. Not saying something in our town shouldn’t be named after Junior, but this was another opportunity missed. Just like Car Country Carlsbad. Just like the invasion of Walmart. Just like so many other unfulfilled possibilities and missed cues.

aware of at the time by their advisors — who conveniently make more money off of this non-disclosure — is that due to declining assessed property values, the only way to keep this promise is to sell what are known as “capital appreciation bonds” (CABs) that pile interest onto principle, with no chance for early repayment — a very expensive financing alternative. Fortunately, unlike other school districts in the county, only a portion of the money needed to complete funding of school construction was financed this way, but the damage is done. I am assured San Marcos Unified School District leadership is pursuing every avenue open to them to make up for the financial missteps taken with the guidance of their outside advisors. I have no reason to doubt their sincerity or ultimate success. In the meanwhile, parents and the community at large eagerly anticipate the unveiling of the district’s new flagship San Marcos High School, which is set to open in its entirety after the winter break.
Sept. 12, 2012. In an Oct. 31, 2012 press release, city officials stated that Maher was placed on leave because he was a witness in a personnel investigation within the police department. Despite public records requests from the San Diego Branch of the ACLU and U-T San Diego, the city did not release any information about Maher’s severance package, citing that personnel matters are confidential. Details of the personnel investigation were kept under lock and key by the city manager’s office, and even City Council was not informed of the reason behind it, according to Escondido’s Deputy Mayor Olga Diaz. But in June 2013, City Council members were sent an anonymous email con-

taining transcripts of text messages allegedly sent between then-Lieutenants Carter and Benton. The messages criticized then-Chief Maher and implied that he was involved with a female police department employee. The messages also referred to the female employee by a racist term. Diaz, who confirmed the existence of the email and its contents, said that the city manager’s office did not say whether the text message transcript was legitimate or not or whether it was involved in the personnel investigation. “It was never confirmed even to the council, but it was also never denied,” she said. However, shortly after the anonymous email was received and publicized by local Maher support groups and media publications, Phillips released a press
release on June 12, 2012 stating, “The City of Escondido has a zero tolerance policy towards racial comments in the workplace... In light of recent emails, Facebook postings, or newspaper articles, I believe it is important to publicly state my admiration and confidence in all of the members of our Police Department.” Phillips did not respond to requests for comment, and Carter declined to comment about the text messages or personnel investigation. The president of the Escondido Police Officers’ Association, Michael Garcia, expressed confidence in the city manager’s handling of the police personnel investigation. “The matter has been resolved. So far as I’m concerned, whatever issues were brought up have been investigated and properly dealt with through the city
manager’s office,” he said. He said that with the new chief selected, the department is looking forward to moving on from the “negative rumors and connotations that have surrounded us for some time.” As chief, Carter will have to navigate the Escondido Police Department’s controversial relationship with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and its use of check points. “(Carter is) certainly going to have to do some relationship building with the Latino community, especially given the check points and relationship with ICE,” Diaz said.
Garcia said that the association is pleased with the selection of Carter and hopes that he will focus on providing the department with enough resources to fill in the numerous sworn officer vacancies in the department. Carter said that as chief he hopes to focus on community policing efforts. He said that he wants to build a relationship between officers and the community so that local residents will come forward to help solve crimes. “It’s no secret that the police department cannot do enforcement all on its own,” he said.

ENCINITAS — Drew Durfey could swim before he could walk. His large hands and feet, as well as his long torso, helped propel him to the Special Olympics medial podium countless times over the years. When paddleboarding at Cardiff Reef and other spots, he’s got a talent for reading the conditions and spotting approaching waves. “In the water, he’s as good as anybody — if not better,” said his dad, Ed Durfey. Solid ground is a bit tougher for Drew, who has cerebral palsy. Balancing can be difficult. He has trouble estimating distances. And he struggles with understanding language and social cues. But thanks to a new job and living space, Drew is slowly becoming as comfortable on land as he is in the water.

DEL MAR — The board of directors for the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which governs the Del Mar Fairgrounds, unanimously approved an agreement at the Aug. 13 meeting that could bring an additional $150,000 annually to the stateowned facility. Directors authorized Ocean’s Eleven Casino in Oceanside to operate minisatellite wagering for a minimum of five years, with an option to renew for one threeyear period. In an effort to widen the distribution of the horse racing signal at brick-and-mortar sites, in 2007 the state approved the development of 45 mini-satellites, which are regulated and licensed by the California Horse Racing Board. If a potential restaurant or sports bar is within a 20-mile radius of an existing race track — which in this case is the Del
Mar Fairgrounds — the applicant must be granted a waiver from the facility. Currently four such venues operate in Southern California in San Clemente, Santa Maria, Santa Clarita and Commerce. In exchange for the waiver, the 22nd DAA will receive a percentage of the profits, which are estimated to range between $100,000 to $150,000 annually. The facility has been approved by Oceanside but still needs to be licensed by the California Horse Racing Board. Pending that approval, satellite wagering is expected to be available at Ocean’s Eleven next month. Earlier this year Silky Sullivan’s Race and Sports Bar received approval from the 22nd DAA to operate a minisatellite wagering facility in Carlsbad, but that city denied its business license, noting any form of gambling is generally not allowed in Carlsbad.

$1.5m sexual harassment verdict vacated to city By Promise Yee
VISTA — Superior Court Judge Jacqueline Stern ruled that the city of Oceanside could set aside paying $1.5 million in damages granted to sexual harassment victim Kimberli Hirst and granted the city a new trial to determine damages and liability. The judge called the settlement amount of $1.5 million reached on April 17, “exorbitant” and not supported by the evidence. “In a nutshell there was no evidence to support this number,” City Attorney John Mullen said. The judge granted the city’s request for a new trial on Aug. 6, due to the facts that the law does not allow the recovery of litigation distress, the plaintiff’s counsel made impermissible arguments, and Hirst staged some of her testimony. Hirst’s trial lawyer
Dwight Ritter disagrees with the judge’s findings. “The court inserted its opinion in place of 11 jurors,” Ritter said. “We’re shocked and astounded.” Both sides acknowledge that Hirst was sexually harassed by former Oceanside police officer Gilbert Garcia. Mullen said the city has zero tolerance for sexual harassment and took the appropriate actions. “We’re as reactive as we can be,” Mullen said. “When the city found out about it the plaintiff downplayed the incident. The officer said it was mutual banter, but to the city that didn’t matter, it was inappropriate. That’s one reason the city fired the officer.” The city initiated a detailed investigation and ordered Garcia to have no contact with Hirst after a Rancho Santa Fe Security
guard, who was working as a transport officer, reported to the city that he overheard a phone conversation between Hirst and her supervisor Tim Johnson that indicated that Garcia had made an inappropriate comment to Hirst. Neither Hirst not her supervisor reported the officer’s comments to the city or the company where she worked. The city’s investigation found Garcia at fault for making propositioning comments to Hirst between October 2008 and December 2009. Garcia was fired. After Garcia was found guilty Hirst sued the city and Garcia for emotional distress. Within two days of the trial Garcia was dismissed from the case and the city was responsible for all damages. Mullen said the jury’s TURN TO VERDICT ON B14

Attorney offers good news for self-publishers By Lillian Cox
CARLSBAD — The success of E.L. James’ eBook, “50 Shades of Grey,” is encouraging news for anyone interested in self-publishing. After proving itself as a best seller, the erotic romance novel trilogy was picked up by publisher Vintage Books for a reported seven-figure price. Today, a film is rumored to be in the works. Karla Olson is president of Publishers and Writers of San Diego (PWSD). She reports that today 65 percent of books are sold on Amazon.com. This prompts many authors to pause and ask themselves why they need to go through all the work, and often rejection, associated with getting a literary agent to pursue the traditional publishing route. “I am on my own person-
al campaign to call self-publishing ‘indie publishing,’” she said. “You don’t call it ‘self rock,’ you call it ‘indie rock.’ And you don’t call it ‘self film,’ you call it ‘indie film.’” Attorney Mark Reichenthal practices with the Branfman Law Group, P.C. in Oceanside in the areas of intellectual property, licensing, new media, entertainment law, book publishing and general business contracts. Earlier in his career he served as senior counsel at Wiley Publishing, Inc., publisher of the successful “For Dummies” series. Reichenthal will offer a presentation titled, “Self Publishing v. Traditional Publishing, A Fight to the Death? An IP Attorney’s Perspective” at 10 a.m. Aug. 31 at the Dove Library. The presentation is sponsored by
PWSD. Simply put, Reichenthal maintains that those writers who are most successful at self-publishing are those, usually popular bloggers, who already have an established following. “I’m a guy who has a million people reading my blog,” he explained. “Why would I go to a traditional publisher? Why would I give up 85 percent of the money and all of the control when I’m fully capable of publishing and marketing and there’s a line of people waiting to buy my book?” The hard part for many self-published authors is that they need to be willing to market themselves aggressively. This, along with having the money to contract the best experts in the fields of editing, book cover art and distribution drives many would-be authors to day dreams of traditional publishing with a handsome advance. “Advances are a funny

thing,” Reichenthal said. “They can be so big that it ‘earns out’. If you get $25,000 as an advance for your next book, publishers have to recoup the $25,000 in sales — then they will start paying you.” The fact that Amazon.com has become,
what Olson calls, “a necessary evil” since it was created has increased membership markedly in PWSD. “I got involved eight years ago when there were only 35 members and now we have 350,” she said. “That’s an indication of where the publishing industry has gone. One of the major benefits to authors is that indie publishing has moved the power back to them.” Olson explained that writers are not constrained anymore by having to prepare, polish and submit a book proposal only to have an agent, or their assistant, reject it. For a minimal investment by publishing standards, they can produce a book and sell it on Amazon.com. To do it right, they also need to be mindful of the responsibility for educating themselves on issues such as copyright and intellectual property law. She explained: “People ask, ‘When is my material copyrighted so that it can’t
be taken away from me?’ Plagiarism is redefined these days because so much is out there on the Internet. It used to be the publishing company that addressed these kinds of questions. Now it’s up to the author to address them.” PWSD meets one Saturday a month. For schedule and additional information visit http://publisherswriters.org. Because 90 to 95 percent of the membership is independently published, meeting topics address an aspect of publishing. The September meeting will deal with eBooks. The October meeting will feature Don Poynter, “the godfather of independent publishing.” Admission to each meeting is $10 for members and $15 for nonmembers. Annual dues are $37. The Dove Library is located at 1775 Dove Lane in the Plaza Paseo Real Shopping Center at Aviara Parkway and El Camino Real in Carlsbad.
Camp provides comfort to kids Dove Library closes for maintenance COAST CITIES — The Moyer Foundation has partnered with San Diego Youth Services to launch Camp Mariposa San Diego, a free overnight camp for children affected by a family member’s addiction. These camps offer activities combined with expert education and support that helps youngsters ages 9 through 12 understand and express their feelings, while learning positive ways to cope with the difficult situation they face at home. Ultimately, Camp Mariposa is designed to give children the tools they need to break the cycle of addiction in their families. The camp’s inaugural session was Aug. 9 through Aug. 11, followed by additional camps every other month. “The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department has been a long and avid supporter of youth services that prevent
future public safety concerns such as delinquency and substance use and abuse,” said a Sheriff’s Department spokesperson. “It is with this paradigm that the SDSD sought out a partnership with San Diego Youth Services to implement The Moyer Foundation’s Camp Mariposa.” Camp Mariposa was created in 2007 by The
cult it is for a child to deal with a family member’s drug or alcohol addiction. “No child should have to face that kind of struggle alone,” said Karen Moyer, chairperson and founder of The Moyer Foundation. Approximately 8.3 million children in the U.S. live in a home with at least one parent in need of treatment for alcohol and/or

CARLSBAD — Carlsbad City Library, at 1775 Dove Lane, will be closed Sept. 2 for Labor Day and stay closed through Sept. 4 for repairs to its air-conditioning and lighting systems. Carlsbad’s other libraries, Georgina Cole Library at 1250 Carlsbad Village Drive, and Carlsbad City Library Learning Center, at 3368 Eureka Place, will be open on Sept. 3 and Sept. 4. The library’s Web site, carlsbadlibrary.org, will be available for those who would like to manage their accounts online, download eBooks or eAudiobooks and use other online resources. “Our air conditioning needs a major repair that can only take place while we are closed,” said Library & Cultural Arts Director Heather Pizzuto. “We take our role as a community ‘cool zone’ very seriously and need to be prepared for the warm weather that usually hits in September and October. At the same time, we can tackle some necessary lighting work to help us function more efficiently. We appreciate the community's patience during our closure and invite you to visit one of our other two library locations in Carlsbad.” For more information about the closure, call Carlsbad City Library Deputy Director Dave Curtis at (760) 602-2010.

ODD Bier Garden gets green light to open windows FILES

By Jared Whitlock
Haute Water The upscale restaurant at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art announced in August that it would soon add a 20-item selection of waters from around the world, priced from $8 to $16 a bottle (except for a $12 â&#x20AC;&#x153;tasting menuâ&#x20AC;?). Martin Riese, general manager of Rayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s & Stark Bar, who is also a renowned water gourmet, will sell his own California-made 9OH2O, which comes in â&#x20AC;&#x153;limited editions of 10,000 individually numbered glass bottlesâ&#x20AC;? at $14 each. Said Riese, â&#x20AC;&#x153;(M)any people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know that water is just as important to the entire dining experience (as, say, a good wine).â&#x20AC;? Riese has been certified as a Water Sommelier by the German Mineral Water Association.
The Continuing Crisis A security lab, delivering a report to the makers of software for a luxury Japanese toilet, warned that a flaw in their Android program renders the toilet hackable â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even while a user sits on it.The Satis (which retails for the equivalent of about $5,600) includes automatic flushing, bidet spray, fragrance-spritzing, and music, according to an August BBC News report, and is controllable by a â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Satisâ&#x20AC;? cellphone app. However, the PIN to operate the app is unalterably â&#x20AC;&#x153;0000,â&#x20AC;? which means that a prankster with the app could create some very uncomfortable mischief in a public restroom. British birdwatchers were especially excited by news earlier this year that a rare White-throated Needletail (the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fastest flying bird) had been spotted on the U.K.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Isles of Harris â&#x20AC;&#x201D; only the eighth such sighting in Britain in 170 years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and ornithologists arranged for an expedition that attracted birdwatchers from around the world. A June report in the Daily Telegraph noted that about 80 people were on the scene when the bird appeared again, but then had to watch it fly straight toward the blades of a wind turbine. (As the event might be described by Monty Python, the bird thus joined the choir invisible, left this mortal coil, became an exWhite-throated Needletail.)
Bright Ideas Helpful Derivative Military Technology: Manayunk Cleaners in Philadelphia has been testing delivery of customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; clothing via its own drone (a converted four-blade DJI Phantom quadcopter originally used for aerial photography), guided by GPS. Said one bemused customer, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was wondering what the hell that was, to be honest.â&#x20AC;? So far, the payload is limited to a shirt or towel, to be picked off the hovering aircraft by the customer, but owner Harout Vartanian hopes to buy a bigger drone soon.
ENCINITAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The most recent disagreement over bars and community character played out at an Aug. 15 Planning Commission meeting. Ultimately, the Bier Garden won the right to keep its windows open until 10 p.m. as a result of a 3-1 Planning Commission vote. Bier Gardenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rear windows, which face its outdoor patio, are currently shuttered throughout the day. The operators applied for permits to open them to improve circulation and the ambiance of the spot, they say. David Crevisten, one of the owners, said he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anticipate opposition to the permits since Bier Garden is known for a casual atmosphere and shuts off its lights at midnight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I never imagined (residents) who live next to a train, the 101, Whole Foods and businesses that close at 2 a.m. with live entertainment, would ever take issue with a business that closes at midnight,â&#x20AC;? Crevisten said. But half a dozen residents who live at Pacific Station, where Bier Garden opened this spring, said the location is already loud.
The windows facing Bier Gardenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patio are currently closed. But the Encinitas Planning Commission gave the OK to keep the windows open until 10 p.m., drawing concerns from residents who live at Pacific Station. Photo by Jared Whitlock
Unfastening windows near their apartments will only make it worse, they maintain. Resident Patty Weber noted she was excited for Bier Garden to set up shop in the space, but that quickly changed once it opened. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were shocked by the noise level,â&#x20AC;? Weber said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could no longer have a conversation in our common area.â&#x20AC;? Nicholas Chan, another resident, said conversations and laughter emanating from Bier Garden have made it difficult for him and his pregnant wife to sleep at night. Chan added that his iPhone has recorded sound levels of 55 decibels, and occasionally surpassing 75 decibels, on week-
ends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is beyond city statute,â&#x20AC;? Chan said. Marco Gonzalez, an attorney representing Bier Garden, argued his client is being unfairly targeted. Nearby 1st Street Bar and Grill, which has live music and dancing, accounts for much of the noise in the area, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;How do you know where your sound levels are coming from?â&#x20AC;? Gonzalez asked. Other residents said Barracuda Bar and Grill, the previous occupant of the space, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as loud because fewer people frequented it. Plus, the building lost its soundproofing insulation once Bier Garden renovated the
roof. In response to those concerns, Gonzalez said that Bier Garden owners recently met with a sound engineer in search of solutions to muffle the noise. Also, earlier in the hearing, he said residents of Pacific Station were made aware they were moving into a dynamic, mixed-use development when they signed housing documents. Consequently, they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect the area to be as quiet as â&#x20AC;&#x153;living in Olivenhain,â&#x20AC;? Gonzalez said. Citing residents having a difficult time sleeping, Planning Commissioner Michael Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Grady made a motion to close the windows
at 9 p.m. Living in a mixed-use environment is one thing, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;another thing not to enjoy the property that you have,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Grady said. However, that motion failed. Planning Commission Chair Kurt Groseclose said 9 p.m. seemed like an arbitrary time. The Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department recommended 10 p.m., he noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We, as a Planning Commission, are not an enforcement body,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding that he defers to law enforcement. With Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Grady opposed and Planning Commissioner Anthony Brandenburg absent, the 10 p.m. window-closing time ultimately passed with a 3-1 vote. A larger debate over alcohol-serving bars and restaurants is on tap for next week. The Encinitas City Council will discuss options for quelling noise associated with downtown drinking at its Aug. 28 meeting. The Encinitas Hospitality Association, a collection of 26 bar and restaurant owners, will present a plan of action then. Last month, a moratorium on new liquor licenses for late-night establishments failed to pass.
Crack down on drivers to prevent motorcycle accidents By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Extra motorcycle police officers were out from 6 a.m. to noon on key streets this August to crack down on careless drivers who are likely to cause a motorcycle-involved accident. The Motorcycle Safety Enforcement Operation is aimed at reducing the number of motorcycle deaths. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for any violations of vehicles or motorcycles that can lead to motorcycle accidents,â&#x20AC;? Sgt. Gabe Jimenez said. Automobile drivers who speed, make unsafe lane change, or who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol, are a major cause of motorcycle-involved accidents. Drivers distracted by cell phones, adjusting music, or putting on makeup while driving are putting motorcycle riders at greater risk by not focusing their attention on the road. Extra police patrols were also on the alert for motorcyclists who were not driving safely. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unsafe speed for conditions and lane turning are the top two,â&#x20AC;? Jimenez said. State Route 76, College Boulevard, Oceanside Boulevard, and Vandegriff Boulevard were identified as
roadways that motorcyclists frequently ride and locations where a high number of motorcycle crashes and violations occur. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are more crashes in most of those areas,â&#x20AC;? Jimenez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to focus on heavy traffic flow, rush hour traffic to noon.â&#x20AC;? California motorcycle fatalities rose 18 percent in 2011. The number of motorcycle fatalities a year also peaked in Oceanside in 2011 with three fatal collisions.The following year ended with another three motorcycle fatalities. Two recent motorcycle fatalities were caused when a rider ran off the road and a rider did a wheelie and was ejected from his bike. Part of the cause for the increase in fatal accients statewide is the upturn of the economy. As the economy improves there are more people on the road. There is also an increase in novice motorcycle riders. Motorcycle safety training is strongly recommended. The course teaches riders how to react to road situations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Out in public is not the place to learn how to ride a motorcycle,â&#x20AC;? Jimenez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better to be prepared.â&#x20AC;?
San Diego HarleyDavidson Riderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Edge training course is a California Motorcyclist Safety Program that educates 300 riders a year. Derik Bergman, San Diego Harley-Davidson sale manager, said the 25-hour course benefits all riders. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anyone who want to learn how to ride, refresh their skills, and be safe on a motorcycle,â&#x20AC;? Bergman said. Bergman said tips for safe riding depend on a riderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience. Some universal advice for all riders is assume people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see you, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drink and drive, use common sense, and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be in a rush. Wearing the proper safety gear is also essential. A motorcyclist must wear a Department of Transportation-approved helmet. Other recommended gear is leather gloves, a
leather jacket, protective pants, boots and sunglasses. Jimenez has ridden as a police officer and sergeant for 1- years and ridden personally since he was a teenager. His advice for fellow riders is to drive defensively. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Be safe, obey all laws, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take unnecessary risks,â&#x20AC;? Jimenez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ride defensively, be aware of your surrounding and roadway surfaces. Look ahead for potential hazards.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Respect other riders,â&#x20AC;? Jimenez added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be an emotional rider. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a raceway, the road is to commute.â&#x20AC;? Bergmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tips for automobile drivers are to look when changing lanes and focus on the road. Bergman added that lane sharing is legal in California. Motorcycles often pass cars between the freeway one and two lanes. Drivers should be
alert and drive in the middle of their lane. Motorcycle Safety Enforcement Operation police patrols are paid for by a California Office of Traffic Safety grant through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Locations of California Motorcyclist Safety Program training courses can be found by calling (877) 743-3411.

REGION — The San Diego County Water Authority is working on evaluating the latest plan aiming to fix the ailing Sacramento-San Joaquin Bay Delta, a major source of water for San Diego County and the entire state of California. Located east of San Francisco Bay, the Sacramento-San Joaquin Bay Delta provides water for 25 million Californians throughout the state. Though San Diego County also obtains water from local sources and the Colorado River, the BayDelta remains a critical source of water. Over the past five years, the BayDelta provided 20 percent of San Diego County’s water supply, according to the San Diego County Water Authority. “It’s kind of the hub of all water supply for the whole state,” explained Richard Atwater, executive director of the Southern California Water Committee. For years the Bay-Delta has been afflicted by environmental, structural and water supply problems, which among other impacts has resulted in a decline of its water supply reliability. Atwater said that the Delta and its water delivery infrastructure are susceptible to a myriad of destructive events including a massive earthquake. He said that if the water supply from the Bay Delta was cut off for any reason, it would have a “catastrophic effect” on the state’s economy. “We can’t afford to do

nothing,” he said. “The (San Diego County) Water Authority believes that something needs to be done to preserve the water supply and the ecosystem in the Bay Delta,” said Dennis Cushman, assistant general manager of the San Diego County Water Authority. In 2009, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Reform Act, which was designed to reform water policies and launch plans to restore the Bay Delta. Consequently, water agencies, environmental and conservation organizations, state and federal
agencies, and other groups have collaborated to develop the Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP). The latest BDCP administrative draft proposes a series of alternatives that center around a 50-year permit to build a new conveyance system in the north Bay Delta, construct three new intakes, insert two tunnels that would transfer water to the existing plants in the south Bay Delta, and implement conservation measures to protect the Bay Delta’s endangered species. The entire 50-year implementation of the plan would cost about $24.5 billion to be paid for by water consumers throughout the state. The official draft of the BDCP and its environmental review are expected to be released in October this year so that state and federal authorities, as well as
local agencies can submit formal comments on the plan. State officials intend on making a decision on the plan in spring 2014. A panel of experts discussed the proposed BDCP at length on Aug. 15 at the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce in the hopes of better informing local officials about the issues concerning the Bay Delta. Staff and city council members from cities throughout North County, including Carlsbad’s Councilmember Lorraine Wood, attended the discussion. While the panelists, which included Atwater and Cushman, agreed that the state of the Bay Delta is in decline and needs to be improved in order to secure southern California’s water supply, not everyone was ready to endorse the BDCP. Cushman said that through water conservation programs and expanding local water sources, San Diego County has reduced its reliance on water supply from the Bay Delta. The San Diego County Water Authority reduced its water purchase from the Metropolitan water District of Southern California, which sources its water from the Bay Delta, by 66 percent over the past two decades. Still, the Bay Delta will continue to supply a significant amount of the County’s imported water. As a result, the San Diego County Water Authority is currently analyzing the range of alternatives proposed for fixing the Bay Delta to establish which plan is the most practical and affordable assurance of reliable water supply, said Cushman. He said that the Water Authority still has concerns about the BDCP’s proposal. “Nobody has quantified what the financial impact will be and nobody has quantified what the water supply reliability will be,” he said. The San Diego Water Authority is still collecting information about the BDCP and other plans as it is available before officially endorsing a specific alternative. The San Diego Water Authority Board of Directors intends on endorsing an alternative and submitting a formal comment letter on the BDCP in November, according to a July 25 press release.

MiraCosta students raise awareness on mental illness OCEANSIDE — MiraCosta College has initiated a new student-led program to build awareness of mental health issues and direct those affected by it to available resources on and off campus. A $112,000 grant funded the training of 12 students taking part in MiraCosta College’s Peer Education Program. The students will engage in 40-minute, interactive presentations beginning this fall semester at targeted classrooms in the Child
Development, Health, Psychology, and Sociology departments, said Marge Reyzer, MiraCosta College’s Director of Health Services. Peer counselors also will be at College Hours that are held weekly, and can be scheduled to discuss depression-related issues with other classes at the instructor’s request. Jason Lindemann is one of the peer counselors who underwent training this summer. “I was interested in getting involved with the peer

Familiarize your family with the school’s emergency procedures, and provide current contact information for parents and other relatives. Decide on a meeting point near the school where you can meet your child in case of emergency if you cannot connect by telephone. If your child is old enough to use a cell phone, consider providing one that is reserved for urgent situations.
Update Medical Information Let the school know of any medications your child takes both at home and at school, as well as any medical conditions such as diabetes, asthma, allergies or psychological issues. Provide contact information for your pediatrician along with medical emergency instructions.
Review Safety Rules Remind children not to talk to strangers and never to get into a stranger’s car, no matter what the circumstances. Choose a “code word” that only you, your children and trusted friends and family members know in case someone else has to pick them up, and instruct your children never to trust anyone who doesn’t know the code word. Instruct kids to find a trusted adult immediately if they don’t feel safe.
Avoid Backpack Overload A backpack that is too heavy or worn incorrectly can strain a child’s neck or back. Backpacks should be lightweight with wellpadded shoulder straps, a padded back and a waist strap. Pull both straps tightly enough so that the pack fits snugly against the back but doesn’t pull on the shoulders. Distribute the weight of items within the pack evenly on both sides, and keep it light. Consider a rolling backpack if allowed by the school.
Stand Up to Bullying Bullying is a serious problem, yet many victims don’t speak up for fear or ridicule or retaliation. If you suspect your child is a victim of bullying, encourage him or her to tell you what is going on. Ask questions and offer support and comfort. Controlling your own emotions can make it easier for your child to open up to you about what he or she needs to feel safe. Talk to teachers and administrators about the situation.
Set Reasonable Schedules Sports and extra-curricular activities help kids learn skills, socialize, and have fun, but too much of a good thing can become stressful and ultimately negate the benefits. Let kids choose what they want to participate in and change or drop activities that aren’t enjoyable or become too demanding. Allow for unscheduled time to rest and relax at home with the family. “Health Watch” is brought to you by the physicians and staff at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas.

What every parent needs to know This month is filled with so many different emotions about the new school year. Some students can’t wait to return to school while others dread the thought of it. Parents both look forward to the quiet days and will miss the extra time they have with their children during the summer days. Some students love going to school. For others, school is kind of an annoying inconvenience or even a painful daily experience. What Makes The Ddifference? Why do some kids find school “OK” while others find it harder? It’s because different students bring different mental “tools” to their schoolwork. If you have a set of mental tools (or underlying processing skills) that are in place and working efficiently, school is fairly easy. If you’re one of the 30 percent who have weak or inefficient “tools”, school will be far more difficult – as will many parts of life. “It’s the difference between using a typewriter or using a computer.You can get work done on a typewriter, but it is very S-L-O-W and far more difficult than using a computer,” says Maria Bagby, owner of the Therapeutic Literacy Center. Most people assume that all the underlying processing skills are in place and working efficiently when a child goes to school, but for 30% of our students that’s not the case.
Still, schools and tutors do not teach those skills. They teach an approved curriculum aligned with the State Standards. They are not trained, budgeted, or staffed to stop and “fix” underlying processing skills.Tutors provide more time and repetition of the same if
Most people assume that all the underlying skills are in place and working efficiently when a child goes to school, but for 30 percent of our students that’s not the case. not similar curriculum. But more time and repetition don't "fix" the problem and they take time away from other important things like sports and play with friends. For these students, homework takes too long and is a frustrating experience
A Different Opinion “Kids wake up every morning in order to have a pretty good day,” said Maria. “They don’t wake up saying, ‘How can I make my life harder today?’” “If school has been a struggle, it’s not because of bad teaching or because the parents haven’t read enough at home and - it won’t get better on its own or with traditional tutoring.” You Need A Strategy “I hope this year will be better” isn’t a strategy. A new year, new school, new teacher, and being a year older is not going to make the difference. It will still be a struggle if they haven’t gotten the mental “tools” for more efficient learning. “The only answer is to look for ways to build those underlying processing skills,” said Maria. “This is the most rewarding work in my 25+ years in education. I see students successfully developing the learning skills they need for efficient learning in their classrooms. Students are gaining confidence and feeling selfesteem again. Parents report that their whole world is changed.” Screening and evaluations should be scheduled now – before problems begin in the new school year. Discounted tuition is offered for students registered before Friday, September 13th. Free consultations can be scheduled by calling the Therapeutic Literacy Center at (858) 481-2200.
Public charter school of choice Your child As the new school year is gearing up, so are fears and anxieties of many school aged children. While many students look forward to the acquisition of new pencils and backpacks, others are apprehensive about large class sizes and lack of individualized instruction. There is hope for those families that face the new school year with mixed emotions. Academy of Arts and Sciences is a leader in the newest frontier of educational options: online learning. AAS, a leading free public charter school of choice for students in grades K-12, offers a blended (online and on site) customized learning program. Students engage in an exceptional learning experience that blends innovative online learning with critical face-to-face and lab time. At Academy of Arts and Sciences, students will be able to access a diverse range of Arts and Science electives. “We understand that students learn best when their education is tailored to their needs, which is why a key tenant of the Academy of Arts & Sciences philosophy is flexibility,” said CEO Sean McManus. “With this instructional model, on site and off site time can be adjusted to fit individual student needs. The flexibility of blended learning provides choice for students.” The school utilizes cut-
ting edge 21st century curriculum. Students are able to access the curriculum twenty four hours a day, and have the flexibility to participate in a wide variety of events, activities and experiences that enhance the learning experience. AAS also allows students the opportunity to access a wide variety of world language, humanities, media and technology, engineering and robotics, app and game design as part of the rich elective program.
We understand that students learn best when their education is tailored to their needs, which is why a key tenant of the Academy of Arts & Sciences philosophy is flexibility,” Sean McManus CEO
Online learning differs from traditional schools in that classes do not take place in a building, but rather at home, on the road, or wherever an Internet connection
can be found. Because of this, students take courses online with support from their teacher via phone, online Web meetings, and sometimes even face to face. This new way of learning allows the parent to take an active role in the student’s learning and to really become a partner with their child. The parent (or "Learning Coach") keeps the student on track in line with the provided lessons plans. In addition to the online courses, AAS provides plenty of opportunities to connect online and offline with other AAS students and families. The Academy of Arts and Sciences staff is very active in the community and can often be found interacting with families at Beach Clean Up Days, various community festivals, and organized activities that take place at their Learning Centers. An online education offers students the opportunities to learn in a small setting with a course schedule that is tailored to meet their individual learning styles and needs. This unique learning environment meets the needs of all types of learners and offers solutions to many different educational challenges. Many students find that learning in the comfort of their own home allows them be successful in ways never dreamt of before!

Three years ago, the MiraCosta Community College District launched a comprehensive master planning effort to establish model environmental practices at its three campuses. In January 2011, we created a Sustainability Advisory Committee composed of students, faculty, staff and administrators to oversee and guide the endeavor. Our bold vision includes becoming carbon-neutral by 2030. Our vision is coming to fruition. A growing number of courses are incorporating sustainability issues into their curriculum, our students continue to be engaged in various environmental efforts, and our campuses are employing creative sustainability practices. Among the more recent facility successes is a pilot project in the staff parking lot at the Oceanside Campus that has resulted in energy efficient LED lighting. Tom Macias, MiraCosta College’s director of facilities, notes the college is planning to get all of its lots equipped with LED lights within the next 12 months. To help further save energy, so-called “cool roofs” that reflect the heat from the sun – and lessen the demand for air conditioning – have been installed in two classroom buildings at the Oceanside Campus. And MiraCosta College’s new $1.9-million modular science building that was
installed at the Oceanside Campus on June 17 is equipped with photovoltaic power and is LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum Level worthy. “It’s completely sustainable,” Tom Macias said of the structure that includes 3,360 gross square feet of science labs and classrooms. Meanwhile, campus parking lot lights are now turned off at 11 p.m. instead of running them all night. Efforts are not just limited to our facilities.The Design Department, which includes courses in drafting, architecture and engineering, is teaching sustainability concepts in many of its courses. The Horticulture Department has created a sustainable horticulture class and the Physical Sciences Department offers courses on climate change. Students also are taking the initiative. The Engineering, Architecture and Design Club has assembled a vertical garden that catches rainwater falling onto a roof, stores it in a container and distributes it into the soil using a solar-powered pump. And more than 2,200 MiraCosta College students take part in a discounted bus pass program through the North County Transit District (NCTD) that gets people out of their cars and onto public transportation. “The college has made great strides and excellent progress in this area the past
two or three years,” said Design Department Chairman Paul Clarke. Our ongoing efforts led to MiraCosta College receiving honorable mention in the 2013 California Community Colleges Board of Governors annual Energy and Sustainability Award Program in the category of “Excellence in Energy & Sustainability – District Leadership.” In a 30-plus year career that began as an environmental health and safety engineer, Tom Macias has seen sustainability efforts come and go. “It’s here to stay this time,” he said. “For one, building codes have changed to require greater energy efficiency. And there has been a cultural shift to where people realize this is the right thing to do.” In fact, our Comprehensive Master Plan states that MiraCosta College will endeavor to create campuses as “living labs,” “develop strategies to minimize environmental impact,” and “promote the District as a leader in habitat preservation.” Our strategic plan states that “MiraCosta Community College District will become a vanguard educational institution committed to innovation and researched best practices, broad access to higher education, and environmental sustainability.” And among the district’s institutional objectives is to “develop and implement environmentally sustainable policies, practices, and systems."

Give your child a better education I became an advocate of Montessori's philosophy when I observed my children flourishing in a Montessori school, doing things on their own that many children are never even given a chance to try. My name is Janna Jones and I am the founder of the Montessori Adolescent Academy. I have personally taken the steps to build an accredited Montessori program. Building an effective program meant that I needed to dedicate myself to providing a Montessori learning environment that exudes the philosophy. That means that the teachers are trained and the classrooms are equipped with the proper materials to
enable each student with the most success possible. Montessori is an educational design that teaches children in a head and hand manner utilizing materials for each subject. We also have enrichment programs like the Montessori Model United Nations (MMUN) which entails a trip to the UN in New York, an art program where they learn foundational techniques, a sports program looking closely at the fundamentals and application, second language lessons, as well as music theory and practice.

Baby Boomers’ parents would envy their retirements Get the goods on greens MOTLEY FOOL INVESTOR BY MORGAN HOUSEL Helaine Olen does a lot of good exposing the dark side of the finance industry in her book “Pound Foolish,” but I can’t get on board with this statement she made in a recent article: “For the first time in living memory,it seems likely that living standards for those over the age of 65 will begin to decline as compared to those who came before them.” Olen describes how most Americans don’t have nearly enough money in their 401(k)s to retire.That much is true. But assuming this means retirees will be worse off than previous generations is one leap too far. First, the IRA wasn’t created until 1974, and the 401(k) didn’t come about until 1978.If we’re making comparisons to the past, forget about today’s 401(k) balances being inadequate. A generation ago, they didn’t even exist. Now, we often hear that most workers in previous generations were covered by a pension. But that just isn’t the case. According to the Employee Benefit Research Institute, pensions (both public and private) peaked in the
early 1990s, when fewer than 4 in 10 Americans over age 65 were covered. Only a quarter of older Americans were covered in 1965.Today, it’s around 34 percent. Pension income made up 20 percent of all income for Americans over age 65 in 2010.That’s actually higher than the 15 percent recorded in 1975, according to the institute. The real issue here is Social Security, since it’s long been the backbone of most Americans’ retirement and will continue to be for decades. Listen to politicians,cable news hosts and alarmist journalists talk about Social Security’s future, and you get a universal message: The program is underfunded, it’s going bankrupt and cuts are inevitable. There are simple ways to make Social Security sustainable, and in fact, the program has a promising history of implementing fixes when its solvency is in jeopardy. But let’s assume politicians sit on their hands and nothing is done to fix Social Security. What happens to retirees? Social Security is project-
ed to hit a point around 2033 where it can only rely on payroll tax revenue to fund benefits.After that, it will be able to pay retirees about 75 percent of currently promised benefits until 2087. A 25 percent benefit cut would be a political disaster, but it almost certainly wouldn’t mean retirees would be worse off than their parents. Consider the numbers we’re talking about here. Initial Social Security benefits rise over time with a calculation tied to wage growth, not just inflation. That’s allowed average real (inflation-adjusted) monthly benefits to double over the last half-century. If real benefits grow 1 percent annually (the trend rate over the last decade) between now and 2033, average inflation-adjusted monthly Social Security payout will be nearly $1,600 a month. At that level, a 25 percent cut would reduce real benefits to around $1,200 a month, or roughly to where they are today. Yes, the do-nothing, doom-and-gloom scenario envisions initial Social Security benefits basically staying flat over the next two decades.This is what passes for a “crisis” these days. But this raises a question. If pension coverage is higher
now than it was in the 1970s, if 401(k)s and IRAs didn’t exist until three decades ago, and if Social Security benefits used to be lower,how did Americans retire? The truth is, many of them didn’t.They worked until they died. The whole theory of retirement for all is a relatively new idea. Before World War II, the majority of American males age 65 and up were still active in the labor force. Previous generations of Americans worked into their 70s and beyond at levels we couldn’t fathom today. The labor force participation rate for males over age 65 would have to fully double from where it is today — meaning retirement in that cohort would have to fall by half — before we return to levels that prevailed in the 1960s and 1970s. Oddly, that’s a nostalgic time some consider “the glory days” of American retirement. We have to differentiate between things not getting better as fast as they used to and things getting worse. They are easy to conflate, but two very different things. For boomers, the gap between “this isn’t ideal” and “your living standards will be worse than your parents’” is pretty deep.
RANCHO SANTA FE — Deborah Madison, an authority on vegetarian cooking, will be the next chef and author at the Good Earth/Great Chefs series at The Chino Farm. Mark your calendar now for Madison’s visit to highlight her new cookbook, “Vegetable Literacy,” from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Oct. 6. This book-signing and culinary event will also feature samples of her recipes based on the seasonal vegetables at The Chino Farm, along with beer pairings from a local brewery. Books can be preordered at goodearthgreatchefs.com or purchased at the farm stand, which will be open for shopping during the event. The event is free and held outdoors rain or shine at 6123 Calazada Del Bosque. “Vegetable Literacy” is a cookbook that explores the diversity of the vegetable kingdom, revealing the surprising relationships between vegetables, edible flowers, herbs, and wild plants within the same botanical families. It shows cooks that, because of their shared characteristics, vegetables within the same family can be used
interchangeably in cooking. It presents an entirely new way of looking at vegetables, drawing on Madison’s knowledge of cooking, gardening, and botany. With more than 300 recipes, Madison brings information together in dishes that highlight complementary flavors, showcasing combinations that are simultaneously familiar and revelatory. Beyond the recipes, Vegetable Literacy is a resource of botanical, historical and horticultural information. Madison is the author of 11 cookbooks and is known for her simple, seasonal, vegetable-based cooking. She got her start at Chez Panisse, before opening Greens in San Francisco, and has lived in New Mexico for the last 20 years. In addition to writing and teaching, she has served on the boards of Slow Food International Biodiversity Committee, the Seed Savers Exchange and the Southwest Grassfed Livestock Alliance, among others. She is actively involved in biodiversity, gardening, and sustainable agriculture.

Hopes run high that the site of Pacific View Elementary School will be transformed into a dynamic center for arts and culture. Photo by Kay Colvin
Envisioning a vital new view KAY COLVIN A Brush With Art “It is not often that one has the chance to spark profound change in a community. It takes vision, courage, and a willingness to believe in the commitment of others. It also takes a bit of luck that the conditions will be present that would support the change.” So began the written proposal submitted last year to the Encinitas Union School District by the Envision the View Coalition, a group of Encinitas residents committed to transforming the site of the decaying Pacific View Elementary School into a dynamic community-based center for arts and culture. The Pacific View property, which was gifted to the City of Encinitas in 1883 by John Pitcher, has been the subject of hot debate during the past several years. Located on 2.8 acres only one block from the coastal bluff and two blocks from the thriving businesses along South Coast Highway 101, the property is home to the historic one-room schoolhouse built in 1883, as well as the 1953 Pacific View Elementary School. The more recent structure has fallen into increasing disrepair since closing its doors a decade ago, but many interested parties have seen beyond its current eroding exterior to its extraordinary potential. The property has been the target of developers and various groups, each with their own vision of highest and best use of the prime coastal property. Considering its accessible location, individuals and organizations have envisioned the property becoming the site of a center for
arts and culture. Few would disagree that, given the concentration of artists and arts organizations in Encinitas, the site would be an outstanding location for an arts center. Jim Gilliam, arts administrator for the City of Encinitas states, “For a city of 60,000 residents the size of the arts community is staggering.” Confirmed by results of the 2011 study conducted by the San Diego Foundation, Encinitas has the second highest concentration of artists in all of San Diego County. Gilliam states, “Encinitas has all the elements for success in the arts: a diverse and talented community of artists and arts organizations, educated and arts-interested residents, strong support from city and county government, and a city rich in natural resources and beauty. What we don’t have is a central gathering space that brings these resources together. A Center for the Arts It is the one missing component in what could be a great arts city. I believe Encinitas is on the cusp of redefining itself as one of the most exciting cities in San Diego and beyond.” The public desire for an arts center in Encinitas became clearly evident during last year’s extensive community-igniting debate. Although the issue died last December due to a series of flukes, a glimmer of hope reemerged earlier this year when City Council agreed to consider purchasing the property. However, the dream will not materialize without significant involvement of the community. Deputy Mayor Lisa Shaffer stated in her recent newsletter: "It's not enough to want an arts center. If we are going to commit to the purchase, we need a group of people who can put together a plan TURN TO BRUSH WITH ART ON B16
OCEANSIDE — No film can be expected to take shape without a screenplay. That’s why award-winning writers Antonio F. Vianna and Leonie Tremaine will be presenting the Screenwriters’ Workshop during the OIFF (Oceanside International Film Festival), which begins Aug. 23. The two writers have extensive experience in understanding the fundamentals of writing for film. “I reached out to Tony,” said Dmitriy Demidov, the festival organizer. “But he told me, as I reached out to him, that a couple of his friends were specializing in screenwriting. This is how Tony contacted Leonie, and we were very happy to have them present the workshop last year.” Having already attended OIFF the previous year, Vianna and Tremaine still have fond memories of meeting people who shared their love of film. “Last year was the first time,” Tremaine said. “I thought it was very interesting and enjoyable, and I really enjoyed meeting so many young, passionate people. I was inspired by them, and I did actually come to have relationships with a couple of the

As part of their workshop duties, Vianna and Tremaine will address the criteria every production compa-

Fantasy world of ‘Bones’ isn’t that fantastic By Noah S. Lee
While it packs a great deal of magical punch and rousing set pieces,“The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones” suffers from an overstuffed mythology, sloppy storytelling, and flat acting performances to the point where it can’t hope to be the next grand fantasy blockbuster. In modern-day New York City, a teenage girl named Clary Fray (Lily Collins) learns of her true heritage: she comes from a bloodline of Shadowhunters, a secret society of half-angel/half-human warriors that protect the world from demonic threats. When her mother (Lena Headey) disappears, Clary must team up with Jace Wayland (Jamie Campbell Bower) and his fellow Shadowhunters, who introduce her to a realm unknown to most people. But even as Clary encounters demons, vampires, werewolves, warlocks,and other nefarious creatures, she strives to find her mother and get some answers about why she was abducted in the first place. I’ll admit that I enjoyed the film’s action sequences and the visual flair, and director Harold Zwart spent a substantial amount of time and money crafting several exciting scenes to realize his vision. His efforts get the results he’s looking for — Valentine’s minions attacking Jocelyn, Clary and the Shadowhunters fighting vampires, demons invading the Institute — and wow the audience with their photo-realistic glory.

But for all its fantastic visuals and action sequences, “The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones”has no idea of how to be more than just a big-budget spectacle. There’s no doubt that the film contains a very rich mythology, but the problem is that there’s just too much to showcase in one go. It might’ve been better had the story focused on the conflict between the Shadowhunters and the demons, leaving the vampires, werewolves, warlocks, and other monsters for another installment. But no…the production had to cram everything about this otherworldly realm into one film and overwhelm us with elements that aren’t well developed. We should be feeling excitement, but all we end up experiencing is dissatisfaction. Furthermore, the writing in this film bears the scars of a rough draft of a TV script that
didn’t receive the necessary revisions. We start off with Clary searching for her mom once she is taken by Valentine in his search for the Mortal Cup, but soon the focus shifts to the object and forgets the aforementioned woman, rendering this plot point insignificant. Plus, the chemistry between Clary and Jace is so contrived you’d think you were watching a hokey dating commercial. I don’t know if this is just bad storytelling from the source material or if it’s a mistake made by the director, but whatever the case, the writing left me disappointed. It’s obvious that Lily Collins has a passion for the material, and her gusto helps to instill an eye-catching magnetism in the Clary Fray character. Despite the not-soimpressive script and narrative,she’s the only one who succeeds in holding her head high. In contrast, Jamie
Campbell Bower is devoid of appeal, speaking his lines as though he could care less about what happens to Jace Wayland. If anything, all he seems to care about are his tattoos and abs. Robert Sheehan tries his best to come into his own as Simon Lewis, but the uninspired writing prevents him from doing so. Kevin Zegers and Jemima West, who portray siblings Alec and Isabelle Lightwood, respectively, do nothing but fight enemies — all the time. Sadly, there’s not much to say about Lena Headey,Jared Harris,and C.C. H. Pounder either; I blame the script for wasting their potential. As for Jonathan Rhys Meyers — who plays antagonist Valentine Morgenstern — he exudes no genuine menace despite his name being mentioned countless times, and his overacting doesn’t do him any favors. Such a shame that “The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones” couldn’t pull itself together and overcome the shortcomings afflicting it. Lily Collins deserves credit for her perseverance, but we can only lament at how badly she was let down by the usual key factors. MPAA rating: PG-13 for intense sequences of fantasy violence and action, and some suggestive content. Running time: 2 hours and 10 minutes Playing: In general release

Art showcase rises from the dead
Mickey Strider’s Salton Riviera exhibit is at the Civic Center Gallery in Encinitas City Hall through Aug. 27. The display features tilapia, that after dying off by the millions, are given new, fresh identities using salvage from the Salton Sea. Courtesy photos
By Lillian Cox
ENCINITAS — During the week, Mickey Strider produces award-winning television and web campaigns for clients that include Asics running shoes, Newcastle Brown Ale, Wild Turkey bourbon and PF Chang’s. When he comes home, he retreats to what he calls is his “fish factory” where he unwinds by breathing new life into tilapia, found in various stages of decomposition along the shore of the Salton Sea. “Tilapia is the only thing that lives there,” he explained. “They’ve adapted to salt levels which are about 30 percent more than the Pacific Ocean, but have experienced major die-offs because of algae bloom which sucks oxygen from the water.” Strider explained that algae were inadvertently transferred from the Pacific Ocean to the Salton Sea aboard naval equipment during World War II when the sea was used for aviation exercises. At least 24 navy planes and more than three dozen crew members are thought to have been lost during that time. “I always look for tilapia that have already dried out so they don’t smell as much,” Strider explained. He cleans the cavity of the fish with alcohol and allows it to dry for at least two weeks, sometimes a month. Next, he adds a clear coat of varnish. Without eyes, the fish faces were expressionless until Strider began using electronics equipment salvaged from the Salton Sea to enhance their personality and charm. “They tell me what they want,” he says with a grin, referring to their accessories and their names. There is Phinneas whose tail overflows with electrical components from an adding machine Strider found on the shore. Robert’s eye is a
plumbing part. Fiona is a pet fish with a jeweled collar purchased from Muttropolis and a matching leash made of ribbon. Patty Strider, Mickey’s wife, helped to create Phoebe by knitting a scarf according to her husband’s specifications. “I didn’t think twice about doing it because Mickey is so talented,” she said. “He’s very passionate about the Salton Sea and used to bring trinkets home before he brought the fish.” She added: “The fish are all over our house and have gotten more intricate as they go on. All of them had trauma and washed up on the shore. One fish already had the
wires coming out of its back when Mickey found it.” A native of Baltimore, Md., Strider said his affection for the region began about five years ago when he flew over the Salton Sea preparing to land in San Diego where he accepted a job. “I had never heard of the Salton Sea before, and wondered what it was,” he recalled. Strider read everything he could find, and made one trip with his family. He also went on Facebook to meet likeminded people.

VERDICT
CONTINUED FROM B1
$1.5 million verdict against the city is unwarranted because the city of Oceanside was not Hirst’s employer, therefore Hirst cannot sue the city under the Fair Employment and Housing Act. Her employer, American Forensic Nurses, is a private company that was contracted through the county of San Diego to provide blood-drawing services to the Oceanside Police Department. “She doesn’t have a standing under the law used to sue us,” Mullen said. “The evidence did not
support the verdict granted.” Mullen said Hirst’s stress came about when she testified at the arbitration hearing against Garcia and during the trial in which she sued Garcia and the city a year and a half after the incident occurred. Mullen labeled it “litigation distress.” Mullen said during the settlement trial parts of Hurst’s testimony seemed staged because she was not emotional when she was initially interviewed, but “faked tears” during the settlement trial. Hirst herself testified at the settlement trial that she did not cry when she discussed the sexual harassment four years ago. Ritter has a different opinion of what transpired. He said the city is responsible for damages because it employed Garcia, who had a pattern of sexual harassment conduct. The city said Garcia had no former charges of sexual harassment.
Ritter added that the judge negated the jury’s ruling and determined that Hirst would receive nothing. “The evidence is overwhelming he harassed this woman,” Ritter said. “They’re unwilling to provide her any compensation for what she had to go through.” “They fired the individual and acted like nothing happened.” Ritter said Hirst is a very credible witness. The city called on her to testify at the arbitration hearing. “She participated in the investigation and was fully cooperative,” Ritter said. Ritter added that no part of her testimony was staged and there is no question the officer’s comments caused her emotional distress. “It disrupted her life, she had difficulty sleeping, she was scared to work with the police officer,” Ritter said. “She moved out of her house to live with her mother.”
“Her children were aware she suffered this distress. They said she was angry sometimes and inconsolable other times.” Ritter said the impact of the sexual harassment should not be discounted because Hirst suffered additional distress during the hearing and trial. “In every case the initial incident causes a cascade of events that are traumatic and distressful.” Ritter said the fact that Hirst did not report the harassment was due to her concern about keeping her job. “She only had the job a month or two and needed it too badly,” Ritter said. “Reporting harassing conduct was something she wasn’t looking forward to doing. She was concerned about any retaliation.” Ritter said he is not certain whether or not Hirst will go forward with an appeal to the judge’s decision. “We’re considering our options at this stage and have not reached a conclusion yet.”

Air Support makes thunderous bang on range By Cpl. Sarah Wolff-Diaz
CAMP PENDLETON — Marines drop to their knees behind a cement barrier as a thunderous explosion sends shrapnel flying through the air. The percussion resonates through the hills of Las Pulgas from Range 109. Twenty-four Marines from Marine Air Support Squadron 3, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing here, conducted live-fire training with M67 Fragmentation Grenades on Aug. 13. The Marines began their day at the range with a reading of Cpl. Jason L. Dunham’s Medal of Honor citation, followed by an open discussion about courage. “You don’t know when you’ll be deployed,” said 2nd Lt. Jennie Bellonio, the range’s officer in charge and an air support control officer with the support squadron. “You need to know how to properly handle this weapon system to keep yourself, and those around you, safe.” Bellonio continued to say that the squadron is one of the few units still being deployed. “It’s the same reason we

go to the rifle range every year,” said Bellonio. “We should be keeping up to date with grenade training as well.” The Marines donned their Personal Protective Equipment after the discussion and safety brief. They began practice throws with M69 practice grenades that are commonly known as ‘blue
bodies” on the range. While repeating commands given by instructors as they practiced proper grenade handling procedures and throwing form in the concrete launch bays. “In our (Military Occupational Specialty), we’re usually collocated with the ground forces, which means we have the unique possibility of going out on
patrols and leapfrogging ahead as they move,” said Staff Sgt. Brian Nicholson, a platoon sergeant with the squadron. “So we may find ourselves doing infantry type things.” After the Marines felt comfortable with the “blue body” grenades, they were separated into two columns where they would be called
two at a time to the ammunition sheds. They gingerly placed the live fragmentation grenades into the pouches attached to their flak jackets and made their way to the live-fire bays aloud before executing. “You get that high explosive so close to your heart, it gets you kind of nervous,” said Sgt. Jonathan
Washington, an air support operator with the squadron. “But when you have the confidence of knowing it’s a tool that I’m properly trained to use; you think ‘I can do this.’” Standing in the bay, live grenade in hand, each Marine repeated commands given by their instructor. “Thumb clip. Twist, pull pin. Prepare to throw.Throw!” Marines drop to the ground behind the barrier as the ticking sphere whizzed through the air. The Marines wore flak jackets, Kevlar helmets, and ear and eye protection to shield them against flying debris and concussion. “Every one of (the Marines) was confident,” Washington said. “I really liked the way they reacted, and the motivation it gave them.” Once the Marines were done, they were given the opportunity to go to the observation tower and watch the next group heave grenades across the range. “We try to do this annually,” said Bellonio. “I would love to get (my Marines) out here once a quarter if it were possible.”
Local youth achieve; now ‘Young Marines’ By Lance Cpl. Orrin G. Farmer
CAMP PENDLETON — Local youth earned the title of Young Marines after several weekends of training in a ceremony held at the base theater on Aug. 10. The Eagle Young Marines is a drug demand reduction program that is sponsored by the Marine Corps League and open to boys and girls from ages 8 to 18. The program promotes academics,physical fitness and character development in its members through training and leadership activities. “The recruit training and the Eagle Young Marines also help kids develop hope and confidence,” said Patti Siegmann, the executive officer for the Eagle Young Marines.

program graduated 13 youth members into its ranks on Saturday. “The toughest thing in the world today is to gain good morals and good character,” said Dwayne Siegmann, the
commanding officer of the Eagle Young Marines. “That is the most important thing that we continuously focus on in the Eagle Young Marine program.” The program is designed

to help develop these young kids to become productive members of the community Dwayne continued. The guest speaker of the graduation and supporter of the program was Oceanside Mayor Jim Wood. “This is an education, what you’re doing out there in person. This makes you a better person,” said Wood. “(Young Marines) certainly makes you a better citizen.” The program shares similarities with the Marine Corps. It allows youth to progress through ranks and grow in their abilities, said Patti. “This program is terrific because it gives kids a wonderful opportunity to learn, grow and serve their community,” said Patti.

lights on. But wait. I did not forget to turn them on. I wasn’t oblivious to the fact that it was night time and headlights needed to be turned on. I had turned the proper switch, had made the effort to turn them on, and my parking lights were on to prove it. The area was just so well lit, on a main street in downtown El Cajon, that I didn’t yet realize I hadn’t rolled the switch all the way over. I was driving a Rambler station wagon, so you know I

that demonstrates a clear public benefit to justify a public investment, a plan that shows long-term viability, a plan that the broad community will support." Mayor Teresa Barth, who has since its inception supported the concept of an arts center at Pacific View, explains her perspective: “…The council has been working on a Strategic Plan. Through that process we identified a number of Focus Areas and Key Goals. One of the Focus Areas is Arts & Culture. During our discussions we all recognized the importance the arts play in creating and maintaining our quality of life. “We also identified three goals that I believe strongly support the purchase of the Pacific View School site, including Improve historic preservation through appropriate reuse strategies and economic uses; Expand arts and performance venues that provide more diverse opportunities; and Partner with groups

wind down and the kids are starting to hear the first bells of school going off soon but that means San Diegans get San Diego back again. I love the weather here from September through the second week of January. The air gets that little crispness in it between the Santa Ana’s, the water tends to stay glassy all day and the swells start turning from the south back to the west. Yes, San Diego is a fabulous place to call home but like I said, I fell in love with a great little place in the tropics that beats any other nice place in the tropics because … no mosquitoes and no bugs! You can leave your windows and sliders open all night long and listen to the rush of the tide. I think that’s what San Diegans take for granted: no bugs! We, too, can leave our windows open and enjoy cool evenings following warm days and not expect to be invaded by multi-legged creatures. I bring all this up because despite loving it being back here in coastal North County there is a distinct difference in energy. Down in Puerto Vallarta the sun doesn’t rise over the horizon until about 8 a.m. so most businesses don’t even start opening until about 10 a.m.

THE COAST NEWS wasn’t showboating. I was alone in the car, so I wasn’t distracted by giddy friends. It was just a quarter inch on the switch. So what did I learn from the ticket? I learned that the police in that area clearly did not have enough to keep them busy and apparently preferred to kill flies with a sledgehammer. Yes, I learned to doublecheck my lights, but a friendly “Check next time, young lady, to be sure that switch is turned all the way on,” would have been more than sufficient to accomplish that. Or in my father’s words,
as he paid the clerk, “If I’d known the city was this desperate for money, I’d have sent a donation!” My dad was awesome. There are probably two or three kids out there who feel that their first ticket was a meaningful, important and essay-worthy experience and I tip my hat to them. But I don’t think I would have hung out with them.
to expand and leverage opportunities to grow the arts and culture venues.” Mayor Barth emphasizes that the greatest challenge will be identifying funding for the purchase, operation and maintenance for such a venue. She adds, “I have heard numerous exciting ideas from the community and believe we can find a solution that benefits both the school district and the community.” Danny Salzhandler, altruistic president of the 101 Artists Colony and integral part of the Envision the View Coalition, says of the Pacific View property, "…The old school house, the 1950's school and a modern addition would show the City's dedication to education and preservation for the community." Committed supporters of the arts center vision Sarah Garfield and Bill Sparks stated, “During the past ten years there have been pivotal moments when the community came forward and publicly voiced their support for the preser-
vation of [Pacific View]. We are at another critical juncture.” This “critical juncture” is an opportunity for the community to work together in the acquisition and development of the Pacific View property while maintaining the integrity of the gift made by John Pitcher in 1883. Please consider contributing time, energy, ideas, and funds to help make the dream a reality. For more information on joining the collaborative effort to create a center for arts and culture at Pacific View contact Danny Salzhandler at salzhand@speakeasy.net, or contact members of Encinitas City Council to offer your support.
The locals start their lunch breaks around 2:30 in the afternoon and then work until about six or seven in the evening. They wait until about 9 p.m. to get around to dinner and then take in entertainment along the Malecon, which is everything from mimes and jugglers, to magicians, piano and violin duets, on down to full-blown rock concerts in the amphitheater. This is every night but Sunday night is when it seems like everyone comes out of the woodworks. In San Diego, people are curling up in front of the television by 8 p.m. I’m not sure how the Mexican people can party on a Sunday night and go to work on a Monday, but they do it. The energy is a soft one down there. I’ve realized that here in San Diego there is a sharp edge to the energy around me. Maybe it’s just having to adjust to traffic and crowded streets and stoplights but there is a distinct raising of the blood pressure and stress levels once I’m back in my primary residence. This is why I highly suggest to you baby boomers that you should seriously consider finding a second home in a place that you have dreamed of in your life. You don’t have to denounce your citizenship, just go find a place where you can literally unwind; a place that will let your heart
slow down and give you pause to reflect on the journey you’ve taken in this life. And believe me, that journey is a tough one whether you’ve become fabulously wealthy or are just scraping by. You hear it all the time: Life is a journey or life is an adventure, and both are so true. Don’t give up on the adventure. Plan to add new journeys to your life.You will not regret it. The other cliché is, “Time stands still for no one and you’re not getting any younger.” Please don’t wait until your still youthful step turns to a “walker” to get around. You will only live from then on with regrets. Live your life to its fullest, trust in our maker and know that there is a spiritual universe out there that is screaming in your subconscious to find your peace, because that is where you will also find your happiness. Enjoy the next four months because those are “our” months to enjoy “our” No. 1 home. May peace be with you always and Vaya con Dios! Someone famous said that once and I have no qualms being a plagiarist with that quote because there is much truth in it. Peace y’all!

DREW

which he earns hourly pay. John Afshari, a special needs coach, has known and aided Drew for eight years. Afshari explained that finding jobs, let alone ones that pay, for special needs individuals can be extremely challenging. It’s even rarer to land a gig that suits a special needs person’s interests, he noted. “I like surf culture,” Drew said in response to why he gravitated toward working for a surf shop. And his apartment says as much. Posters of surfers and stand-up paddleboarders paper his walls. Pictures captured on his camera show locals gliding on waves on an array of boards. In more ways than one, the stars aligned to give Drew new opportunities, both at home and work. Previously, Drew lived next to La Costa Canyon High School, where he graduated from more than two years ago. But this spring, after a few years of construction, Drew moved into his finished apartment on Cornish Drive. The apartment is less than a quarter-mile east of Hansen’s, which is by design. Drew can’t drive. So his parents scoped out the spot, among other reasons, because it’s within walking distance of surf shops. “We had this notion he could work for a surf shop, and we’re excited it worked out,” said Drew’s mom, Cori Durfey. Proximity to surf culture isn’t the only advantage of the apartment. Although it’s next to his parents’ house in case of emergency, the apartment has its own kitchen and entrance, affording Drew privacy. As well as Afshari’s guidance, mentors from the San Diego Regional Center coach Drew weekly on tasks like cooking and housekeeping. However, Afshari noted Drew is less reliant on outside help these days. “He has privacy he didn’t (have) before at his old house,” Afshari said. “And he’s doing more by himself. So he’s very much becoming his own man.” Yet another key in Drew’s path to independence: his biweekly trek to work on what Afshari calls “The Drew highway.” On Thursday afternoon, Drew walked down the

Diego County Fair. That’s the first and last time Strider’s fish were seen publicly until his Salton Riviera exhibit currently at Encinitas City Hall. “The Visual Art Selection Panel was taken by the subject matter, the fact that he uses dead fish, and the skillful execution of each piece of artwork,” said Jim Gilliam, arts administrator, city of Encinitas. “Mickey’s work is whimsical in that he makes each ‘eyeball’ from a found object. The fish are
cracked sidewalk on Santa Fe Drive. A Hansen’s badge hung from his neck, bouncing up and down with each successive step. Afshari followed behind. Here too, Afshari sees Drew’s growth. Lately, Drew seems more aware of his surroundings no matter where he is. Navigating the streets on the way to work has developed that skill. Afshari watches over Drew during the walk due to traffic concerns and the possibility he could become overwhelmed by other distractions. But that could change in the future. “Drew is on a trajectory to do this and other things by himself,” Afshari said. Eventually, they came to the Santa Fe undercrossing, which opened several months ago. Without it, Drew wouldn’t have a clear pathway to cross the railroad tracks and reach his job. Needless to say, the undercrossing has “benefited us in a big way,” Afshari said. After they emerged from the undercrossing, Drew and Afshari headed north on Coast Highway 101. Soon after, Drew spotted a friend eating lunch at Swami’s Cafe and struck up a quick conversation. This came as no surprise to Afshari, who, along with Drew’s parents, noted earlier that it’s practically a guarantee he’ll run into someone he knows whenever leaving the house — regardless of where Drew is. As his dad explained, Drew isn’t afraid to talk to anyone; he instantly builds rapport with people. “He’s just so innocent that he’s very refreshing to talk to,” Ed said. “If you talk to someone with a big title, for example, you maybe are a little afraid to talk to them. Drew’s not.” He added with a laugh that Drew’s shy friends in high school would send him to break the ice with groups of girls. Drew’s parents believe he’s an ambassador for those with special needs in the workplace. On that note, Afshari added that seeing successful people like Drew in the workplace encourages employers to consider hiring more special needs individuals. Afshari stressed that the gig isn’t a handout. Drew’s gregarious nature and work ethic make him a
good fit for Hansen’s. “The outgoing bit translates to success in a retail environment,” Afshari said. Eventually, he’d like to see Drew greeting customers and making sales. That will come once he gains more experience. Once inside Hansen’s, employees welcomed Drew with waves and “hellos.” He stopped and briefly talked with some of them. Right at 3 p.m., he grabbed his timecard, clocked in and headed upstairs to an attic with excess inventory. There, a large box stacked to the brim with a jumble of hangers awaited. Different hangers are suited for certain kinds of clothes. So it’s Drew’s job to separate them and toss them into the appropriate surrounding boxes. He picked up the process by watching Afshari, rather than by way of explanation or lecture. From swinging a baseball bat to hitting golf balls, Drew has a keen ability to learn through observation. Most days, his golf swing will resemble the pros. Occasionally, Drew imitates his dad’s hitch in his swing — all depending on what his eyes are taking in. Occasionally, Drew paused to chat with an employee, but then dutifully returned to hanger sorting. Ken Rodgers, manager of Hansen’s, said Drew brings a magnetic energy each time he enters the shop. “The first thing you notice about him is his smile,” Rodgers said. “He has a smile no matter what’s going on. That’s endeared him to the entire store.” “We look forward to Drew growing with us as he moves forward,” he added. After an hour passed, the hangers were stacked in the right boxes. Drew clocked out, talked with employees who weren’t there when he arrived and began the jaunt back home. Back on the Drew Highway, Drew excitedly mentioned training for an upcoming stand-up paddleboard race. On Sept. 28 and Sept. 29, Drew will take part in the Battle of the Paddle in Orange County with Afshari and a team of locals. “Being in the water is really nice,” Drew said. And more and more, it appears he’s taking to the land, too.
more accessible and not alarming. You enjoy figuring out what he used. It’s the ultimate recycled exhibit, including the fish!” The Salton Riviera got its name in the 1950s when developer M. Penn Philips and the Holly Corporation laid 250 miles of paved roads with plans of developing a luxury resort community. Early visitors included President Dwight Eisenhower, Frank Sinatra and Desi Arnaz. Most people purchased lots for investment but, in the end, few houses were built. By the late 1970s, with the
catastrophic die-off of millions of tilapia, plans for a Salton Riviera were abandoned. A documentary narrated by John Waters titled, “Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea” chronicles the historical, economic, political and environmental issues that face the sea today. Mickey Strider’s Salton Riviera exhibit will be at The Civic Center Gallery through Aug. 27.

Rob Bassinski. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Charles R Bassinski and Michelle C Brick in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego. The Petition for Probate Charles R requests that Bassinski and Michelle C Brick be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: September 24, 2013 at 11:00 A.M. in Dept.

looking for,” he replied, “and the phrase I’ve heard many times is, ‘I’ll know it when I see it.’” Of course, there are times that a producer goes through a lengthy process of finalizing a deal to shoot a script that has been optioned. Such a hindrance can be exasperating for any writer who hopes to see their work come to life in cinematic form, and both Vianna and Tremaine know this feeling. “We don’t know what’s going on in their minds and how many other people are reviewing that particular script,” he said. “It’s out of our control at this point in the process.” But not everyone sells his or her work to the studios. Those who are more
sensitive about retaining their artistic vision have another option, as pointed out by Tremaine. Choosing to make the film yourself is feasible…once you gather the necessary resources to get your script off the ground. “If you have this passion, keep on doing independent films, because that’s where you can truly thrive. Yes, you have to get your financing, but you have creative control. And I think that’s wonderful because these film festivals honor independent movies.” Being writers of both novels and screenplays, Vianna and Tremaine have encountered numerous challenges that come with the process of adapting their own work into movie-suitable material. No creator of a written work is immune to the

“shrinking down” procedure that his or her source material must undergo so as to become better prepared for the world of cinema. “It pains me to have to pull things out of the novel that I want to put in the script,” Vianna asserted. “But if I keep everything in the novel and put it in the script, then the script becomes 300 pages long.” The key to this problem lies within crafting a story via show, not tell. According to Tremaine, film is different from litera-
RANCHO SANTA FE — In its more than 40-year history, Helen Woodward Animal Center has seen its share of heartwarming adoptions and heart-stopping rescues, but its current quest to find a home for one of the last of its Sandy survivors may be one of its most heartbreaking. Rio, a black Labrador retriever blend, was one of 49 orphan pets who made national news when they were flown across the country to Helen Woodward Animal Center Nov. 17, 2012, after Hurricane Sandy. Tragically, Rio’s medical exam revealed a challenge of nature even bigger than the devastating Super Storm. Rio was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. At 5 years old and 55 pounds, Rio has the heart and spirit of a young canine who longs to run and play. Unfortunately, the growing cancerous masses in her lungs and near her heart base, compromise her lung function leaving her near collapse with too much exercise or excitement. “Animals know when they’re sick, but they can’t process what is actually happening to them,” said Kuty. “Because of this, she is timid when she meets new people, can get stressed at times and likes the security of her crate. She is exceptionally sweet with other dogs and cats but it’s important that she stays fairly calm, so mellow pet friends are best.” Rio would do best in a low-key household with one or two adults and a fenced-in yard. She is not able to go hiking or jogging, but would love ture and, as its own medium, has a set of rules to live by. The way she puts it: “It’s a different art form entirely. You don’t have the luxury of all the narrative and the description that you have in a novel.” Having already published 20 books and six scripts, Vianna continues to conduct workshops on writing and publishing books, while Tremaine and cowriter Amy Albani, after recently selling a script, are busy adapting their novel

short, slow walks around the neighborhood. Of course, there are also the practical costs. The center spent thousands of dollars to confirm the facts. To preserve Rio’s quality of life for the time remaining, she is taking Furosemide twice a day and Heartgard twice a month, along with Activyl monthly for fleas and ticks. Upon hearing Rio’s story, Del Mar Albertsons/Sav-On Pharmacy Store Director Shaye Holden offered to cover the costs of Rio’s medication expenses for any foster family willing to take
Rio.
“Adios, Aries” into a TV series with a slightly darker slant for JOA Productions. The Screenwriters’ Workshop will take place Aug. 23 from 1 to 2:25 p.m., during the four-day film festival. You can find the workshop at Oceanside Library,
downtown Civic Center branch, 330 North Coast Hwy., within walking distance from Star Theatre. Visit ocaf.info/oceanside-international-film-festival to find out more about the workshops, screenings, and other upcoming events.
“We’re hoping this gesture will motivate someone in the community to welcome Rio into their family” said Holden. “Like everyone else, we’re animal lovers too and know that pet care costs can be challenging, even for those with the biggest of hearts.” For more information on Rio, or to foster Rio, contact Denise Clark or Myrna Dignan in the Foster Department at (858) 756-4117, ext. 375, email fosters@animalcenter.org or stop by at 6461 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe.
