Mosaic returns close to where it all began Jepsen set to become O’side city manager
By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — The “Surfing Madonna” is back where it started — well, almost. On Tuesday, Mark Patterson, the artist behind “Surfing Madonna,” with the help of four others, installed the mosaic on a Leucadia Pizzeria wall facing Encinitas Boulevard. That’s a stone’s throw from the rail underpass where the piece was first placed two years ago. “This was put here so the entire community can check it out,” Patterson said.“It’s such a good spot for people to view it.” As Patterson and crew pieced together the 10-foot-by10-foot stained glass work, drivers honked in support. A few rolled down their windows and yelled, “Save the Ocean,” which is inscribed in large letters on the mosaic. A man strolling by on the sidewalk had one question for them — “Is the Madonna staying here or going on tour?” Given how much the mosaic has moved around, it’s a fair question. About a year ago,“Surfing Madonna” was relocated from the rail underpass to Café Ipe in Leucadia. Bob Nichols, who has helped Patterson with each of the mosaic’s installations, said the coffee shop was a “nice transition.” But ultimately, they TURN TO MOSAIC ON A26

CARLSBAD — Carlsbad has devised a new strategy for enhancing access and recreation along the city’s coastline. With this effort, the city aspires to advance more livable streets projects and pave the way for enhancing beach services and recreation with a new partnership with the California State Parks Department. During the Oct. 15 City Council meeting, both city staff and council members concurred that enhancing the city’s coastline for residents and visi-
tors should be a priority for Carlsbad. “This is a real opportunity for everyone to meet a dream that most stakeholders have,” said Mayor Matt Hall. Assistant City Manager Gary Barberio explained that city surveys, particularly those conducted for Envision Carlsbad, revealed that residents wanted more services and gathering spaces along the beaches. “A lot of the reason people chose to live in TURN TO COASTLINE ON A21

Commission tweaks closing time of Leucadia Oaks Park By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — Leucadia Oaks Park will close an hour earlier — that’s due to a Encinitas Parks and Recreation Commission’s decision made on Tuesday. Starting next month, the park will close at 9 p.m. instead of at the10 p.m. hour it’s currently set at. Some urged the commission to adopt sunrise to sunset hours, stating that would curb problems with graffiti and litter. But parks Commissioner Dennis Lhota said that dawn to dusk hours would be too restrictive. He added that he would hate for the park to lose its sense of community due to a few rotten apples. Lhota said that 9 p.m. is “a good compromise.” Resident Keith Yablonicky, who lives near the park, proposed earlier hours with the goal of clamping down on gang graffiti. He noted that the park’s playground was tagged fairly recently. “Nothing good happens after dark in the park,” Yablonicky said. Echoing a few residents, he also supported motion lighting to deter people from hanging out in the park late at night. Two residents advocating dawn to dusk hours brought up a gang-related shooting in the park last year. “There’s a lot of families I know that don’t spend much time there because some of the things that have happened,” resident Chris Alvarez said.
Alvarez was also in favor of banning alcohol at the park. “We can live without alcohol on the beach; we can live without alcohol in Leucadia Oaks Park,” Alvarez said. The commission was only scheduled to vote on the park’s hours. Banning alcohol in the park would need City Council approval, according to city staff. And the proposal to install more lighting would require securing an estimated $23,000 in funding, undergoing a public process and getting the OK from agencies like the California Coastal Commission. Resident Jacqueline Myers said that from guitar groups to people playing basketball, there are plenty of legitimate happenings at night under the current hours. “If you cut the hours, you would also be cutting different community gatherings,” Myers said, adding she also likes to

Encinitas is out of balance

The little building, with its recent makeover of cornflower blue accented with silver, is perched high atop a bluff. Its modern lines stand bold and its shiny glass doors open to a sweeping view of the shimmering Pacific Ocean. Sea breezes fill the air while pelicans, in their classic V-configuration, glide overhead in the sky blue pocked with puffs of white. If buildings could talk, I would think it’d encourage us all to “just chill.” This little house on the hill, the Fletcher Cove community center, is at the heart of a heated battle pitting the residents of Solana Beach against each other over regulations governing its use. I once believed everyone involved had only the best intentions, and disagreements and differences boiled down to perspective. Unfortunately, my belief was grounded in naiveté. The community center could have been subjected to a one-year trial period to “test the waters.” The temporary use period was affordable, reasonable, practical, and commendably the basis for a compromise among many differing opinions. It almost seemed too good to be true. It was. Apparently, a number of the founders of a group called Friends of the Fletcher Cove Community Center did not share the desire to be reasonable or practical, nor were they in the mood to compromise. With well over a hundred thousand of their donor dollars invested in the center, they launched a top dollar campaign to collect signatures under the guise the signers would get an opportunity to vote on the use policy governing the community center. The campaign involved hired signature gatherers, some of which accosted families attending a city-sponsored family event known as Movie night. Once the petition was filed, the group quickly pulled the proverbial rug out from under the sign-

Muir stated, “Yes.” When the ballot measure discussion comes back, as promised, as a separate agenda item, the

The center will continue to host Target, Jo Ann Fabrics, a dialysis center, Del Taco, Denny’s and Discount Tire.Those businesses are staying put and will not be remodeled. But all those unusual circular “kiosk”-style shops will be razed and replaced with an expanded parking lot. Also to be razed will be the L-shaped building to the south of Jo Ann’s which currently houses a liquor store and Maxdon’s bar and pool room.

SANDAG seeks input for transit planning from disadvantaged riders By Rachel Stine
REGION — Tracking concerns over transit accessibility, SANDAG is reaching out to the public for feedback on gaps in the county’s transportation services to prepare its latest public transit plan. The comments collected will be taken into consideration for SANDAG’s 2014-2018 Coordinated Plan, which maps out SANDAG’s game plan for the implementation of public transit. The Coordinated Plan specifically serves as a guide for prioritizing projects and grant funding for the improvement of transportation options for seniors, low-income residents, and people with disabilities. SANDAG planners conducted five meetings throughout the county to collect this feedback, the first of which was held at the San Marcos Senior Center on Oct. 14. At that first meeting, a few local residents along with a handful of public transit and social services representatives discussed the difficulties of accessing public transportation in North County. One Carlsbad resident mentioned that it is impossible for her to walk the large hill near her home to reach any of the nearby bus stops. “If I didn’t drive, I would be sunk,” she said. Another community member agreed and suggest-

Brian Lane, a SANDAG senior transit planner, agreed that ideally public buses would be able to travel into neighborhoods but explained that it can be more expensive
Specifically with the lack of school buses, many families cannot afford to pay fares to transport their children to and from school and as a result the children are not able to attend school, she said. Another North County resident spoke about the lack of evening transportation in the area.

to service a specific neighborhood rather than a main road that connects to several neighborhoods. “As soon as you start going into neighborhoods and circulating that way, is it worth those costs for that extra ridership?” Lane said. “It’s a difficult decision.” Representing the Vista Community Clinic, Martha Gonzalez raised the issue of affordability for low-income families. She said she has encountered numerous families who cannot afford the cost of bus fare.
“Basically if I want to stay out later, I have a long walk home,” he said. The SANDAG representatives at the meeting recorded these concerns and encouraged the community members to reach out to them if they think of other comments. A draft of the Coordinated Plan will be released in mid-April 2014, and the final draft will be released in late June 2014. SANDAG will request project proposals to distribute its available grants in late summer 2014.

Subcommittee will look into golf course By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — At Wednesday night’s meeting, the City Council voted to form a subcommittee to address questions raised over the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course. The Encinitas Ranch Golf Authority (ERGA) governs the 18-hole course. ERGA is an independent board that was established by the city and developer Carltas Company nearly 20 years ago. Councilman Tony Kranz, who proposed creating the subcommittee, said he recognizes that the City Council doesn’t have a direct say over ERGA’s
board, but oversight is still necessary. “Our agreement with Carltas was, I think, intended to leave the council and politics out of it,” Kranz said. “And I recognize there’s some good rationale for doing that. But by the same token, as we’ve heard somebody mention tonight, this council will be held accountable for decisions that are made.” He added that the subcommittee will help the City Council “answer the questions that were posed here tonight.” Dick Stern, representing homeowners as president of the Encinitas Ranch
City considers additional developments for GPU By Rachel Stine
The Encinitas City Council agreed on Wednesday to forma subcommittee to look into questions over the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course. Photo courtesy of the city of Encinitas
Community Association, brought up concerns about ERGA’s transparency and financial practices. He said ERGA didn’t seek enough bids when awarding a 10-year contract to JC Resorts to manage the course. He added that JC Resorts is paid higher than the industry standard. There isn’t data to support that decision, he maintained. “I like JC Resorts,” Stern said. “I think they do a great job. But one has to question a couple things about the contract.” Encinitas Ranch homeowners who live near the golf course also complained that property taxes increased as a result of an ERGA decision two years ago. This occurred, they said, because ERGA created a new, ill-advised contingency fund. In effect, that meant allocating less money to CFD (community facility district) bond payments, passing on the CFD debt to 924 Encinitas Ranch homeowners. And that triggered an increase in property taxes, the homeowners said. John McNair, vice president of JC Resorts, said that the course upgrades were “much needed.” They were developed in response
to survey information submitted by golfers who played the course, he said. According to the staff report, the course has been profitable and self-sustaining since inception. In 2011, 53,844 rounds were played on the golf course, and 55,441 in 2012. This year is on pace to have 56,778 golf rounds. Deputy Mayor Lisa Shaffer and Kranz were assigned to the subcommittee. They didn’t announce concrete dates for the subcommittee meetings or settle on a timeframe for reporting back to the City Council. Although questions have been raised, Shaffer said, “no one is proposing closing the golf course.” “The issue on the table is — are we managing the assets in our public-private partnership effectively?” Shaffer asked. Mayor Teresa Barth said the development agreement between the city and Carltas Company is due to expire in 2014. It’s a good time for the city to learn what the end of the agreement could mean, she said. Councilwoman Kristin Gaspar recused herself from the topic, citing a potential conflict of interest because she lives near the golf course.
CARLSBAD — When city staff presented information regarding the status and schedule of the Envision Carlsbad General Plan Update to City Council on Oct. 15, questions were raised about land use changes. Councilmember Farrah Douglas asked about new uses for the old Walmart property on College Boulevard and El Camino Real. Aspen Properties consultant Bob Ladwig brought up a potential change to the plans for La Costa Town Square involving turning land that was originally approved for office buildings into high density housing instead. Both of these alterations and other possible land use changes were not included in the General Plan update that city staff is putting the finishing touches on. The General Plan outlines Carlsbad’s vision for the long-term physical growth and economic development of the city over a 20-year-span. The document includes planned land uses, growth management, habitat management, economic development, sustainability, community vision core values, a climate action plan, city mobility, the housing element, and more. City staff has been preparing for years for the 2014 update of the expansive document. Notably, city staff reached out to residents and community groups from 2008-2010 through “Envision Carlsbad” to develop the latest vision and values for the city’s future. In September 2012, the city used the information gathered from Envision Carlsbad to craft a preferred land use plan to ultimately guide the General Plan update. But at Tuesday’s meeting, Council and staff realized that significant land use and development changes have come up since last year, like the Walmart property and La Costa Town Square, and have not been incorporated into the proposed update. If a land use change is not included in the
General Plan update, developers have to spend time and expense applying to the city to modify the General Plan before moving forward with their project, explained David de Cordova, a city principal planner. “This is probably going to live past us on the council,” said Mayor Matt Hall, urging his fellow council members not to rush such a visionary policy document. “If we’re going to do this, we’re going to do this really right.” Gary Barberio cau-
This is probably going to live past us on the council.” Matt Hall Mayor,Carlsbad
tioned City Council against postponing the General Plan update any more than necessary so staff can still meet their deadline for the update. “I would caution you strongly to do this once and to not do it again so we can finish this effort,” he said. City Council directed staff to identify potential land use changes that have surfaced since the Preferred Plan was created last year for consideration for the upcoming General Plan update. Staff will come before City Council at the Nov. 5 meeting to present its findings and City Council will determine which projects will be analyzed for consideration for the General Plan. City staff will then review the projects selected and come before City Council again for a final decision on which projects will be incorporated in the General Plan update. The staff initially stated that the draft General Plan documents would be released in October and November for public review. However the City Council hearings will delay the release of these documents.
Sun Diego enters lease for Carlsbad site By Rachel Stine

Originally built in 1887, the distinctive blue landmark was formerly home to the Twin Inns hotel and several restaurants. The
site was most recently leased and operated by Ocean House restaurant and bar until a flood in May caused the business to close.

Fate of parking lot remains unknown By Bianca Kaplanek
DEL MAR — Del Mar Fairgrounds officials have to wait at least another month for a permit to officially continue using an unpaved lot east of Jimmy Durante Boulevard for its annual pumpkin patch, Christmas tree sales, parking and other events. The California Coastal Commission voted 9-2 on Oct. 11 to continue the discussion until the November meeting after environmental groups, the San Dieguito River Park Joint Powers Authority and others opposed a proposal recommended by its staff. According to the required permit application, the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which governs the stateowned fairgrounds, would restore a 9.5-acre unpaved dirt parcel known as the south overflow lot back to wetlands. Because the fairgrounds would lose about 1,250 parking spaces as a result, the proposal would allow the 22nd DAA to continue using a parcel east of Jimmy Durante Boulevard for yearround temporary events such as the pumpkin patch, Christmas tree sales and parking, as well as additional future temporary events that include trailer storage during the fair and horse races. The plan is part of a settlement the two agencies reached in March 2012 to resolve and mitigate past unpermitted development at the fairgrounds. The south overflow lot restoration will cost the 22nd DAA an estimated $5 million to $7 million. The 21-acre east lot is divided into thirds. The northern section, adjacent to existing development such as a hotel, is where the pumpkin patch and Christmas tree sales take place.
The 22nd DAA will also restore a 100-foot buffer along the southernmost part of the east lot. All temporary structures on any area would be subject to height and other limitations. Another 10-acre portion of the east lot is where the golf driving range is located. That use would remain and the permit would allow additional year-round parking there. The Coastal Commission received letters of support for the proposal from several area legislators, such as former state Sen. Christine Kehoe, current state Sens. Mark Wyland and Joel Anderson, interim San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria and the mayors of many other cities, including Del Mar, where the fairgrounds is located. “I can’t underestimate the importance of receiving a letter from Del Mar,” 22nd DAA Director David Watson said. San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts, his predecessor Pam SlaterPrice, representatives from several environmental groups and the JPA also said they support the plan, but with one modification. They wanted the southern third of the east overflow lot to also be restored because a recent study indicates there are more wetlands there. “The Coastal Commission issued a cease and desist order, then entered into a negotiated agreement with the 22nd DAA to gather more information about wetlands boundaries,” Roberts said. “The mandated study verified the presence of extensive wetlands on the east overflow lot.

OCEANSIDE — City Council did not take action to brownout an ambulance in order to balance the Fire Department budget at Wednesday’s meeting.

The Oct. 16 discussion brought up the option of comparing the department’s budget with similar size cities to evaluate if the budget amount is sufficient. Councilman Gary Felien suggested a budget comparison be made after Fire Chief Darryl Hebert said his first recommendation is to “fund the budget appropriately.” The Fire Department has been over budget for three years, with overtime costs constantly exceeding projected costs. Felien described the repeated budget oversight as the department “asking for forgiveness instead of permission.” “I want real numbers,” Felien said. “If we’re short I’m willing to bite that bullet. My expectation is to come real close to that budget. Closer to the mark than we’ve been in the past.” The number of city residents and calls has steadily increased over the years while the department budget has decreased. The Fire Department has had $5 million in budget cuts since 2006, and $4 million of those cuts since 2009. “We don’t give you the appropriate budget to do the job, so you use overtime,” Mayor Jim Wood said. “Five million (dollars) has been cut out of budget from 2006 to now. You don’t have enough people hired. Overtime is a lot cheaper than hiring people.”
Encinitas man killed in motorcycle collision By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — Following a motorcycle collision on Monday, Encinitas resident James Randolph Hayes, 56, was pronounced dead at the scene. Hayes, who was riding his 2001 red Ducati motorcycle, crashed into a 5-ton commercial truck at Via Cantebria and West Bluff Drive at about 11:20 a.m. No one was injured in the truck. Paramedics tried to revive Hayes. An emergency room physician subsequently pronounced his death via radio, according to a press release from the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office. Drivers who witnessed the accident said Hayes was riding erratically, swerving and making sudden lane changes, a press release from Sheriff’s Deputy Brenda Sipley stated. According to Sheriff’s Sgt. Emory Wallace, Hayes

to wait 10 minutes,” Councilwoman Esther Sanchez said. In a September memo to the City Council and Fire Department, City Manager Peter Weiss suggested a brownout of one of the four city ambulances and two firefighter paramedics between 7 p.m. and 12 a.m. to balance the department budget shortfall. Hebert said a brownout would affect responses.
Fewer firefighter paramedics on duty will impact residents, and drop boundary response agreements with Carlsbad and Vista may be jeopardized. Hebert said recent records from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. show all four ambulances simultaneously in use one time and three, two, or one ambulance in use at all other times. “Transportation is a key part of treatment,” Hebert said. “Ambulances do become a factor.” Hebert said more importantly it is essential to have a sufficient number of firefighters on the job. In one incident a team of two ambulance firefighter paramedics were called on to help extinguish a blaze as part of the drop boundary agreement. Councilman Jerry Kern said he would be keeping an eye on the Fire Department for the next three months, during which a $300,000 reimbursement for state Office of Emergency Service overtime hours will be received and six additional firefighters will be hired with SAFER federal grant funds. The city will also receive a $990,000 federal reimbursement for ambulance transportation of Medicare patients, thanks to a recently passed assembly bill.

“The best course of action right now is to monitor this closely,” Kern said. “My concern is to get a handle on it.” Wood and Sanchez said Kern is “picking on” the Fire Department and making them appear like bad guys when the department is simply underfunded. “Three different groups said the department is understaffed and you’re complaining about overtime, this is not how you run public safety,” Wood said. “Overtime is the cheapest way to fill the gaps.” Wood suggested funding the department at its original budget before citywide cuts were made. City Council will address the budget issue in mid January. No corrective actions will be taken in the first fiscal quarter.

Surfboard shaper Matt Calvani takes an “all-of-the-above” approach when it comes to the styles and shapes of boards he creates. Recently, Calvani won the surf shaper competition at the Boardroom Surfboard expo in Orange County. Calif. Courtesy photo
Encinitas shaper known for versatility By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — Matt Calvani hurriedly planed a
surfboard blank. His goal? Replicate a classic Terry Martin longboard in less than two hours. Tools weren’t allowed. And Calvani was cramped in a see-through shaping bay as onlookers peeked in. The adrenaline-fueled shaping session was part of a six-shaper competition at Orange County’s Boardroom surfboard competition two weeks ago. Ultimately, the judges declared Calvani the winner, awarding him the best Martin re-creation. Calvani, who owns Bing Surfboards in Encinitas, has built a reputation as a shaper who can build an array of different boards, no matter where he’s at and what tools are available. “Some guys specialize in certain shapes,” Calvani said. “I do just about everything.” In 1987, he began airbrushing surfboards in the South Bay of Los Angeles. The next year, famed surfboard-maker Wayne Rich handed Calvani a foam blank — the equivalent of a sculptor receiving marble. Although airbrushing remained his main gig for several years, he built more
boards, absorbing what he learned from other shapes. During this time, Calvani credits the exposure to different shapers’ philosophies with expanding his palette. “I feel like I have a lot of knowledge to draw from,” Calvani said. Although groomed by other shapers, Calvani said originality remains important. He experiments with new shapes at his shop on “The Hill” — a longtime hub for Encinitas boardbuilders. “I try not to look at other shapes too much, for fear of copying them,” Calvani said. “Naturally stuff comes out unique if you tinker with things on your own.” In 1993, Calvani took a full-time shaping position at Becker Surfboards. There, he hand-shaped more than 25 shortboards a week, as well as longboards. At that time, Calvani explained that surfers typically rode either shortboards or longboards, with few boards in between. But now, surfers are riding a fuller range of surfboard shapes. It’s a sign that the times have caught up with Calvani’s all-of-theabove approach. “That’s the way board design is going,” Calvani said. “I’m making just about everything for customers. There’s more of an opportunity to tailor your board to your style of surfing.” About 13 years ago, one moment changed his life. Calvani just happened to spot legendary shaper Bing Copeland while surfing a secluded break in Mexico.
Calvani, who had never met Copeland, had shaped a line of surfboards with a logo Copeland had the rights to. Calvani had the OK, but he still needed to pay Copeland royalty money. “I knew what he looked like from pictures,” Calvani said. “I walked up to him and said, ‘I owe you money,’” Calvani said with a laugh. In any case, Copeland was “cool about it,” Calvani said. The two became friends. And eventually, Copeland even asked Calvani to take over Bing. Later, Calvani moved Bing to The Hill in 2010 from Gardena, Calif. Working as a craftsman runs in the family, Calvani said. He grew up in Massachusetts, where his dad restored antique furniture for a living. “You could say this work comes naturally,” Calvani said. “It wasn’t something I had to think about or work hard to learn. I just always liked making surfboards.” Calvani just gained another means of showcasing his surfboards. Bing just held a soft opening for a new surf shop at 802 North Coast Highway 101. “We want there to more surfboards than soft goods — kind of a throwback to the old surf shops,” Calvani said. True to form, Calvani said there would be a variety of shapes to choose from in the shop.

San Marcos Unified School District: ‘Pay me now, or pay me later’ Kirk Effinger Thanks to a sequence of events unanticipated by the San Marcos Unified School District administration, its Board of Trustees, or, apparently advisers upon whom they relied, taxpayers in the district will soon be asked to accept a “lesser of two evils” decision forced by what ended up being opposing expectations from the district’s Proposition K bond authorization. That bond vote in 2010 asked for and received approval to indebt the district’s taxpayers to the tune of $287 million for reconstruction of an aging San Marcos High School as well as a laundry list of upgrades to other campuses throughout the district. Taxpayers were initially given to believe they would only see their tax bills go up no more than $40 per $100,000 in assessed valuation, although the authorization allows up to $60. In return they would get a new high school facility to replace the old and significant improvements to elementary and middle schools in need of new permanent classrooms, infrastructure, and the like. When the economy started tanking in 2008, the real estate market took perhaps the biggest hit. With values collapsing and new construction grinding to a halt, the property tax revenue stream also took a hit. What no one expected was how long things were going to last or how deep that recession was going to be. Well, it was long enough and deep enough that there isn’t currently nearly enough revenue to repay the full allocation using current assessed valuations. One way out of the dilemma before today, and one that had been partially in use was the issuing of Capital Appreciation Bonds. Unfortunately, these bonds carry with them negatives that made a lot of news recently and generated a new state law that makes using them again not viable. Bear in mind that the reason this is even being discussed is because the State of California, which is supposed to be the entity providing funding for school construction and modernization, is not. In fact, as of today, the current balance of accounts of the state’s SFP (School Facility Program) — statewide — is a pitiful $402.3 million. The budget just to rebuild San Marcos High School was $160 million. Matching funds from the state? San Marcos Unified is eligible to receive $52 million in state matching grants for Prop. K projects. Thirty-seven million dollars of that has been put on the State’s Unfunded Approvals list — bureaucratese for “fat chance.” So, does SMUSD not honor its commitment to the
community to complete all the projects originally promised by Prop. K? Or, does the district not honor its commitment to taxpayers to keep bond payments at or below $40 per $100,000? Knowing that bond assessments for the last bond authorization approved in 1996 were actually some 30 percent lower on average than originally anticipated, and being somewhat confident that economic conditions in the district will rebound, the answer seems clear: Fulfill the commitment made to all the district’s students and parents. Finish the capital improvement projects.

Library expansion funding is uncertain By Rachel Stine
ESCONDIDO — Although they rejected using reserve funds to advance the design and development of the city library expansion, City Council pledged their commitment to allocating future city funds and working to raise money for the library upgrade at its Oct. 16 meeting. “Nobody is suggesting that we kill the project,” said Mayor Sam Abed. “I think we have five council members committed to having a state of the art facility.” City staff and the selected architect came before council to propose allocating $600,000 from the city’s reserve funds for the completion of the full design of the expansion of the Escondido Public Library. The public library opened in 1980, and discussion of modernizing the facility has gone on for more than a decade. In 2010, the city designated funds to develop a concept for the new library and eventually selected Group 4 Architecture, Research + Planning, Inc. to take on the task. A concept model of a phased approach for the library expansion has since been developed with the help of public input, but more funds are needed for the architect to complete the design and move forward Group 4 Architecture, Research + Planning, Inc. has already completed renderings of the Escondido Public Library expansion, but needs funding from the city to develop a complete TURN TO LIBRARY ON A23 design.

Funds will go towards street improvement By Rachel Stine
ESCONDIDO — In an effort to complete a street improvement project over five years in the works, City Council approved taking funds from a separate housing improvement project to cover the costs at its Oct. 16 meeting. Separately, council also approved the purchase of new police vehicles from a non-local dealer Consisting of constructing new curbs, gutters, retaining walls, sidewalks, streetlights and street paving, the Grape Street Neighborhood Improvement Project was originally approved by council in 2008. At that time, council allocated $450,000 in CDBG (Community Development Block Grant) funds that it had received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the project. But the city reallocated $400,000 of those funds needed for the city’s Tiny Tot preschool months later, putting the project on hold in its design phase. The city reopened the project in 2011 and began reserving portions of CDBG grants for its eventual construction. Over the past two years, Escondido has allocated $408,000 of CDBG funds. On Wednesday council approved taking $375,000 in funds designated for the Elm Street/Habitat for Humanity Project and reallocating it for the Grape Street project. Danielle Lopez, a city management analyst for neighborhood services, explained that the Elm
Street project is scheduled to commence during summer 2014. Therefore the city intends to reimburse project funding with CDBG grants from the 2014-15 fiscal year. With funds in place, City Council approved hiring LB Civil Construction to carry out the Grape Street Neighborhood Improvement Project for $741,700. In other business, council authorized the purchase of 23 Ford Interceptor police vehicles from Wonderies Fleet Group for about $636,000. Deputy Mayor Olga Diaz pulled the item from the agenda’s consent calendar to question why the city was purchasing the vehicles from a dealer based in Los Angeles rather than one in San Diego. While she noted that by law the city is required to buy from the lowest bidder, she said, “It’s a disappointment when we are not buying police vehicles from our local dealers.” City Manager Clay Phillips explained that local dealers were consulted but did not come through with the lowest bids. City staff did not have a recommendation for how to pursue more local purchases in the future due to the city’s obligation to accept the lowest bidder that meets project requirements. The new vehicles will replace Ford Crown Victoria patrol vehicles that have been in service for eight to 11 years, which is past their standard service life expectancy.
City crowns first Miss Fire Prevention since the 1960s By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — Oceanside crowned Alexxa Morgan Miss Fire Prevention in June, just in time for Morgan to represent the Oceanside Fire Department, Firefighters Association and lifeguards in the Freedom Days Parade that same month. This is the first year Miss Fire Prevention has been crowned since the 1960s. “It’s a great opportunity to represent the Fire Department,” Morgan said. Oceanside Firefighters Association president Dave Overton initiated reinstating Miss Fire Prevention when he ran into Genevieve Wunder and the Miss Oceanside court at Oceanside Days of Art in April. Wunder is a member and former president of the Oceanside Sea Lions Club, which sponsors the Miss Oceanside pageant. When Overton approached her with the idea of a Miss Fire Prevention pageant she said, “It’s done.” “In the1960s we had the first ever Miss Fire Prevention,” Wunder said. “Since then we have not had another one.” Within two months a pageant was held and Morgan, 17, was crowned Miss Fire

Countdown to 3-Day begins By Promise Yee
DEL MAR — The Susan G. Komen 3Day walk is less than a month away. On Nov. 17 a spirited group of approximately 2,500 walkers will take off from the fairgrounds in Del Mar to walk 60 miles to San Diego in an effort to raise awareness and funds to help fight breast cancer. Teams dress in pink, come up with fun group names, and walk together as survivors and supporters. Some teams are headed up by a breast cancer survivor. Other teams walk for a friend or family member who did not survive the disease. Walkers put in 20 miles of easy-paced walking a day to reach San Diego by Nov. 19. The group of walkers is escorted by a team of police volunteers on bicycles as they make their way down the coast. At the end of each day participants stop at a 3-Day walk campsite. A dining tent, hot showers, pink sleeping tents and entertainment are provided. A closing ceremony is held the final day of the walk to celebrate participants completing the walk and the strides that have been made to fight breast cancer. Participants describe the 3-Day walk as an empowering and bonding experience. “My stepmom is a survivor, her mother is a survivor,” said Stephanie Castle, of San Diego, at last year’s 3-Day walk. “All of us have family or close friends (with breast cancer). We walk to find a cure and hopefully another person doesn’t get it.” Debbie Chapel of Riverside first participated in the 3-Day walk in 2003. In 2004 she was diagnosed with breast cancer. By 2012 she had become terminally ill with the disease. “They say I’m terminal, but I’m not laying down,” Chapel said last year. “I’m fighting.” A team of family members and friends walked in support of Chapel in 2012. She served on the team support crew, helping to haul extra gear and bring along any special

food and drink requests for the team that were not provided as part of the 3-Day walk. “Knowing they support me I can walk through cancer,” Chapel said. Each participant in the 3-Day walk is required to raise $2,300 to participate and fund the cause. To help participants reach their fundraising goal online help and printable posters and business cards are available. A lot of fundraising is done through email blasts and websites. Other 3-Day walk participants use fundraising parties, yard sales, car washes or bake sales. A good number of walk participants find donors who pledge $100 and end up raising more than the required $2,300. The San Diego 3-Day walk raised $6.5 million in 2012. Funds are used for breast cancer research and community breast health and education programs. Women and men age 20 and older may be at risk to develop breast cancer. Early detection and treatment of breast cancer is critical in curing patients. Medical advancements have developed more treatment options for patients, and specific recommendations for different stages of breast cancer.

Solitude helps singer/songwriter find voice By Jared Whitlock
ENCINITAS — Four years ago, Jason Matkin dreamed of strumming a guitar and singing in front of a large crowd. One problem: He’d never played guitar. And he’d only shared his voice with his bedroom’s four walls. No matter — Matkin, who is now 16 years old, has quickly transformed into an “accomplished songwriter,” well-known musician Dave Matthews recently said. Matthews came to know Matkin’s music as a judge for Carnegie Hall’s Music Exchange. Only one of six songwriters from across the nation selected for the music exchange, Matkin will perform at a music festival in
South Africa as part of the program in December. “The pieces are coming together; the vision is falling into place,” Matkin said. Matkin wasn’t always so passionate about music. His mom signed him up for classical piano lessons at the age of 8. That developed his musical chops, but Matkin wasn’t a fan of the rigid structure. “The thing that I enjoyed about piano is the sound that came out when I played, although I wouldn’t necessarily hit the right notes,” Matkin said. “I could feel the music. But playing different notes was discouraged. That’s when I discovered music isn’t technical. It’s emotional.” Matkin only listened to classical music for much of his

“I realized I no longer had to follow the rules,” Matkin said. And that’s when the visions of performing on big stages began running through his head. He took up guitar, playing Green Day’s “Time of Your Life” for a crowd at his middle school graduation. He said it was a big step, though Matkin noted he was still “too embarrassed” to sing. It wasn’t until he moved to Encinitas with his family from the small, agriculturecentric town of Exeter, Calif. that his songwriting really leapt forward, he said. Matkin, now a senior at San Dieguito Academy, recalled that it was tough making the transition to North County. For the first time, making new friends required a concerted effort. So, he kept

Annual Pride festival celebrates acceptance By Promise Yee
OCEANSIDE — A giant 30-foot-tall inflatable pink flamingo has become a familiar landmark for the annual Pride @ the Beach festival held this year on The Strand south of Oceanside Pier on Oct. 12. This is the sixth year for the festival. A lot has changed since the first year it was held inside the Beach Community Center. In its second year the Pride @ the Beach festival was held outdoors on The Strand and had a more visible presence. “Looking back a few years there was no services and no pride event,� John Jones, director of Pride @ the Beach, said. “The North County LGBTQ coalition was a grass roots effort. At first they did not have a resource center or physical meeting place at all.� By 2011, the North County LGBTQ coalition opened its resource center at 501 N. Coast Highway 101. This gave the nonprofit group a place to meet and offer support services for individuals, families and youth. “The event has brought a spotlight on the center,� Jones said. “We’re increasing the potential to increase services for those who need them the most.� The North County LGBTQ Resource Center holds more than a dozen support and discussion groups including Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous and Crystal Meth Anonymous 12-step programs. Health and wellness programs offered at the center include yoga, HIV/AIDS testing, and a breast cancer support group. “They serve a segment of our community that’s underserved,� Councilman Jerry Kern said. “It’s a tremendous-

Winco is an employeeowned, Idaho-based, 89-store chain located in eight western states.It is a discount store that seems to be a cross between Trader Joe’s and Costco because of its eclectic selection and items that are sold in bulk. The new Winco will take up the area between Target and Jo Ann’s.

corridor between La Costa Avenue and Chesterfield Drive, there are seven track crossings. On average, that’s one crossing every two-thirds of a mile. People have a hard time getting from one side to the other. Trenching the tracks through Encinitas as they are in Solana Beach would solve the five problems cited: The current crossing hazards would disappear if, first, bridges like the one at Lomas Santa Fe Drive and Highway 101 replace grade crossings and, second, if many trench-top
Houtz’ first grade class from North Oceanside Elementary school appeared on national TV. The mother of classmate Susan Studdard wrote to the producers of CBS-TV’s daytime variety show Art Linkletter’s House Party, imploring them to consider hosting some kids from Oceanside to appear on the “Kids Say The Darndest Things” segment that appeared at the end of each show. They bit, and principal Joe Trotter and Mrs. Fran Houtz selected Susan, Greg Dixon,Susie Joslyn and myself. Greg, the son of Vince Dixon (“The Ford King”), got the most laughs. Something about Oceanside being famous for girls in bikinis as I recall. It aired in August 1963. It was taped at Television City.As I recall at the time Hollywood was awash with billboards for the movie “Cleopatra.” The toys they sent us were unbelievable including the
two-foot tall robot whose arms would spin around and shoot out these plastic balls. I wished the folks hadn’t thrown it away with my Aurora monster models. Susan Studdards died a number of years ago. North Oceanside Elementary, at the very north end of Ditmar Street, was torn down sometime in the ‘60s. Old-timers will remember that something used to happen in Oceanside on the last Friday of the month. A remnant from the cold war era, an air raid siren would sound off at 3 p.m. on the last Friday of each month, just to let people know that in case we were getting bombed, these harsh horns were there to alert us. I am told one was at the Oceanside airport, one at Third Street (Pier View Way) and Horne Street, and one in South Oceanside at Freeman and Whaley Streets.The consensus
pedestrian ramps like the one at the Amtrak station are installed in the Encinitas rail corridor. If the grade crossings go, so does the traffic congestion they cause. The trench in Solana Beach is 28 feet deep. Even nearby, the track noise is barely noticeable, and because there are no grade crossings, there are no train horns. Trenching the tracks and fencing the trench would make much of the remaining right-ofway available for parking, pedestrian and bike paths, and landscaping. Covering sections of the trench and using the flat spaces created for the same purposes could also help.
Solana Beach built two overhead trench bridges for pedestrians. They look expensive.But the trench-top ramp at the Amtrak station looks inexpensive. Placing many such ramps through the Encinitas rail corridor would make walking to and from Highway 101 businesses and the beach easy and safe. With funding from federal, state, local and private sources, our neighbors in Solana Beach trenched their tracks in 1995 for $17.7 million. Allowing for inflation and the greater length of the Encinitas corridor, trenching the tracks from Chesterfield Avenue to La Costa Avenue in 2013 would
was they stopped sounding around 1965. The South “O” siren was adjacent to St. Malo Lumber,which was the site of a fire in 1961 that claimed the life of a firefighter. The lumberyard morphed into other businesses including Happy Hammer, Boise Cascade and Best Western Hardware. The North County Times used to have newsrooms in Escondido, Vista and San Marcos and now, the U-T San Diego maintains just one newsroom in North County. It’s in the four-story office building with the blue roof just west of Hooters. I just found out that building belongs to the richest man in congress, our very own councilman Darrell Issa.

cost $84.2 million. Bridging the four grade crossings would add significantly to that cost. However, considering that SANDAG plans to spend $6.5 billion in the North Coast transit corridor by 2040, including $820 million in the rail corridor by 2030, trenching the tracks through Encinitas for $84.2 million plus the cost of the bridges looks like a good idea. Here’s another: The $19.2 million allocated for three more pedestrian undercrossings in Encinitas would be better applied to the cost of trenching the tracks.

Islands has a tropical flair and fabulous burgers DAVID BOYLAN Lick the Plate When Islands founder Tony DeGrazier stepped off the beaches of Oahu after a day of surfing with his Navy buddies
in the early 60s, he did what came naturally to him. He went searching for a juicy burger, a hot basket of fries and a cold drink. Twenty years later, he took a little chunk of the islands and brought it to the mainland of Southern California. Today, Islands still is true to Tony’s original experience and his original vision though it as grown significantly since

Big format bottles standing tall at Costco FRANK MANGIO
Taste of Wine In a move that has eyes turning and cameras clicking at the entrance to the wine department at Costco in Carlsbad, some 60 big format wine bottles are up for sale. Sizes range from threeliters to a whopping 27 liters, made by Fontodi of Tuscany Italy. Inside is their Super Tuscan Flaccianello. A new release 2010 standard sized 750 ml. bottle of Flaccianello holds five, fiveounce glasses of wine and cost $120.00. The most expensive Flaccianello is a 27-liter 2004 vintage that holds 160 five-ounce glasses. The Costco price is $7,599.99. A more popular value Tuscan wine name to know is Banfi. It is well represented with its Centine (pronounced Chen-tee-nay) brand. The big bottle in this one is 5 liters and cost $58.99. Its vintage is 2011 and is a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet and Merlot. This bottle yields 35 glasses, about $1.68 per glass. Simple economics tells me that when comparing a
standard release with its big bottle counterpart, there is much more wine per dollar in the five-liter, about twice as much. Not to say, we should all go running around looking for big format bottles. There are some drawbacks. These giants are hard to open, short of a jackhammer. All the standard lever pull corkscrews are built for the standard size 750 ml bottles. Another problem is that all wine should be consumed when open, or up to two days after unsealing. When exposed to air, a turning process begins and the wine begins to get tart and sour. Unless you have some bigtime parties lined up, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best to stay with the standard bottles. Oh yeah, these bottles can get heavy. When pouring, I can barely balance a five-liter with its 35 glass content. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t imagine what it would be like to be pouring a 27-liter with 160 glasses of wine. On the plus side, they make great party-pleasers. The wow-factor is over the top, and they make very attractive Grand Prizes at wine tasting competitions. Other choices include: Chateau Malescot St. Exupery Red Bordeaux three-liter for $489.99 and the Kendall Jackson Grand

Thirty Generation Italian Winery Appears at Solare in San Diego Most chefs would freeze in their boots and quickly forget everything they were ever taught about fine dining, if they ever had to pair up their menu creations with the best wines from Frescobaldi, a Florentine family whose wine fame
began in the year 1300. By the time the ?Renaissance happened two centuries later, the artistic greats, the Papal Court and the English Court of Henry the Eighth were all faithful clients of Frescobaldi. I am happy to report that Solareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Executive Chef Accursio Lota was up to the task with his menu selections that were an inspirational compliment for the wines. Here are the extraordinary food and wine pairings, served that evening at Solare: Albacore Tuna marinated with tangerine, bottarga emulsion and black squid ink, served with Frescobaldi Vermentino Ammiraglia. Ravioli with slow braised beef short rib, with butternut squash and bone marrow, served with Tenuta Frescobaldi di Castiglioni.

Highway 101 roundabouts, lane elimination and tree removal, should be included. Council has pledged to honor every council member’s request for future agenda items, and consistently has, since before our “new council” was seated. The reasons this project is out of balance are numerous. There’s never been a valid cost-needs/effectiveness-analysis/assessment. Just as methodology was flawed for the General Plan Update through MIG, whereby data quantified and qualified is not statistically significant, so is Peltz and Associates methodology flawed, with disinforma-

THE COAST NEWS tion being disseminated, distorting facts. Councilmember Kristin Gaspar lives closer to, or in Encinitas Ranch, as does Deputy Mayor Shaffer. Gaspar voted, with previous council, to reboot the GPU, because it wasn’t popularly supported and because of flawed methodology. Yet, had Gaspar lived adjacent to N101, she would have to recuse herself, as Dan Dalager did for the Jan. 13, 2010 roundabout vote, before Gaspar was elected. Citizens have been promised we will vote on the GPU. Similarly, we should be encouraged to vote on the N101 Streetscape before more money is wasted.
Over $1 Million was wasted on MIG’s derivative update, composed of templates for updates the contractor had facilitated for dissimilar cities. We’ve paid Peltz and Associates at least $557,000+ for propaganda, and marketing parlance, not valid surveys. If the City insists they’re valid, insists the community supports five roundabouts and lane/tree elimination, then why not put the matter on the ballot for only $23,000 to approve a $20 million+ project? The proposed project is out of balance in that it would bottleneck lanes for motorists, from two northbound/southbound, to one lane, each direction, through four one-lane roundabouts, slowing traf-
fic from an already reduced 35 miles per hour to 15 miles per hour. Roundabouts aren’t recommended by the U.S. Department of Transportation where cross-street traffic is significantly less than the main thoroughfare, such as at three-way intersections, with no cross-streets. Nor are roundabouts recommended where they could affect traffic flow at railroad crossings. Emergency response times absolutely would be reduced in a zone already subpar according to city standards. More traffic cutting through schoolzone/beachside residential/recreational access/egress streets would create additional health and safety concerns.
Also imbalanced is that Phase II of the Leucadia Boulevard roundabouts, with a roundabout at Hygeia, and more sidewalks and landscaping, was never initiated. But “beautification” improvements were how Leucadia Boulevard roundabouts were “sold” to the public. Were that project to be completed, and five more roundabouts added on 101 that would be a total of eight roundabouts through Leucadia, and only one anywhere else in the city, on Santa Fe. That Cardiff roundabout is built incorrectly, with improper grading that creates visibility issues. More collisions have occurred at intersections with roundabouts after
their installation, than before, in Encinitas. Muir said he favors a general election ballot measure for the project because it’s a “high ticket item” and “there’s been a lot of controversy.” Adjacent residents and those who actually use 101 for daily commuting, want to make sure that besides support of the Leucadia 101 Mainstreet Association and a “compliant” city staff, council must determine whether the public needs and wants a project that would include five roundabouts, further destruction of our canopy, more cut through traffic, and slower emergency response times.

trial period. We could have avoided a special election. Now, thanks to our “Friends” we have a city that doesn’t have many options — accept the original “overuse” initiative or spend exorbitant dollars on a special election. Rather alarmingly, the original initiative, once implemented cannot be amended except through a vote, even if a public safety issue is badly in need of being addressed or remedied. Perhaps friends shouldn’t let “Friends” win by playing dirty politics in our city? Perhaps our “Friends” should have tried to listen to the little house on the hill and just chill?

What it does not say is that the city had already agreed to a compromise, now usurped by the petition, which would have avoided a special election. What it also doesn’t say is if the so-called “Friends” would have held their petition for a mere couple of weeks, such a vote would have fallen within a normal election cycle bringing the high cost of the special election, billed at $200,000, down by 10-fold.

S PORTS Bolts kick Colts to curb, get record to 3-3 By Tony Cagala
SAN DIEGO — “You’re only as good as your last kick,” said Nick Novak, the Chargers kicker. And his last kick was a good one. In the fourth quarter, faced with a decision to try and convert a fourth down and short, or a chance to put the game further out of reach, head coach Mike McCoy opted to send Novak out on the field to attempt a 50-yard field goal. In a matter of seconds, the kick was away, flying in between the goal posts with some room to spare. It was the fourth field goal on the night for Novak in the Chargers’ 19-9 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday Night Football. “It’s an opportunity to go up 10 or, what are you going to do? You go for it, you don’t get it, you give them a situation to tie the game,” McCoy said. “I have all the confidence in the world, the way he’s been kicking the ball.” The win, he said, was an outstanding team effort. “We finished the game the right way.” Learning the lessons from last week’s loss to the Oakland Raiders, McCoy and the offensive coaching staff said it was “big” to establish a running game against the Colts. “I think everyone took it to heart how we ran the football last week, which was poor, to say the least. I think we averaged 1.7 (yards) in the rush last week, and that’s unacceptable.
OCEANSIDE — Life Time Tri will hold its inaugural Oceanside race in a big way Oct. 20.The triathlon will mark the final competition in the Toyota Triple Crown Series, which awards a $250,000 prize purse throughout the series and an additional $50,000 to the winner in Oceanside.

“The coaches answered the challenge and we put it out there that we have to run the football better.” The team ended up rushing for a season-high 147 yards. Rookie receiver Keenan Allen continued to build on the trust of quarterback Philip Rivers. “You earn that (trust) as a receiver, and you develop that as a quarterback over time,” Rivers said. “(Allen)
came in right away and started to build that, and the best way you build it is making plays through games.” Allen, in back-to-back games tallied up 100-plus-receiving yards. He’s the first Chargers rookie to do so since Don Norton in 1960. The win brings the Chargers to 33 in the AFC West, with a short turnaround time, traveling to Jacksonville to face the Jaguars Sunday.

The Olympic course is longer.” Triathletes will start at Dolphin Dock with a 1.5-kilometer Olympic distance swim inside the harbor at 6:45 a.m. The bike course will begin at the beach parking lot on Pacific Street and continue along a closed section of the San Luis Rey Mission Expressway/state Route 76 for a smooth, flat 40-kilometer ride. Then triathletes will run along The Strand from the Oceanside Pier to Wisconsin Street and back. Professional triathletes will run the course twice to complete 10 kilometers. An interesting twist on
the race is that professional women triathletes will be given a 10-minute earlier start time then pro men. This will set up top men and women for a head-to-head final run across the finish line. The course layout allows a lot of great viewing opportunities. Spectators can gather for the race start at the harbor. The Oceanside Pier is a great viewpoint to see the final run across the finish line. “The harbor is definitely one place they can be,” Jasmine Geider, public relations associate for White Star Communication, said. “They finish right by the pier.” Race awards will be presented at 11 a.m. at the Oceanside Pier. A fitness expo will be held Oct. 19 and Oct. 20 at the Junior Seau Oceanside Pier Amphitheater. An estimated 1,000 participants will compete in the triathlon’s inaugural Oceanside race. Life Time Fitness is hosting the event in California to introduce athletes to its fitness center, which is set to open in Laguna Niguel in 2014. Life Time has work closely with Visit Oceanside and Ironman Triathlon organizers to plan the event. “San Diego is the birthplace of triathlons,” Hutmacher said. “There are so many amazing triathlons on the West Coast.” Proceeds from Life Time Tri Oceanside will benefit the Oceanside Swim Club and Oceanside American Little League.
La Costa Canyon is playing Carlsbad this week and that’s always an eventful edition of Friday night lights. While we don’t who’ll win, we do know an LCC coach will offer a keen comment. “He’ll have a couple observations and every one of them is right,’’ said Darren Bennett, the Chargers’ punting legend. Bennett, who helps with the Mavericks, isn’t talking about head coach Steve Sovacool. Instead it’s Darren’s son, Will, and here comes Will to prove it. “Coach, this guy is leaving a little early,’’ Will tells Sovacool during a game. “This other guy’s shading it the wrong way.’’ Darren laughs, and like when watching Will work, that makes everyone smile. “He does that once or twice in every game,’’ said Darren, who’s still amazed, but no longer surprised. At each LCC affair someone, at sometime, asks: “Who’s the kid down on the sidelines in the wheelchair?’’ It’s no kid — it’s Will, one of the Mavericks’ top coaches. So what if Will got dealt a tough hand with Muscular Dystrophy — he plays his cards well. So what if Will’s a senior, not older than some of the players — he’s been coaching since he was 12. So what if Will’s new wheelchair prevents him from wearing his signature Fedora hat — he’s adjusted. “He’s got a flatbrimmed one now,’’ Darren said. “He looks like a skate rat.’’ If so, he’s one that can land any jump and grind any rail. Will knows punting like Tony Hawk knows ollies, and that’s no stretch. When the Cowboys cut punter Mat McBriar last year, his first call was to his Aussie mate, Darren. McBriar’s request? Could Will perform his eye-ball test and determine McBriar’s shortcomings? “Can you bring out Will?’’ McBriar asked Darren. “Because he can tell what I’m doing different with my technique.’’ McBriar wasn’t joking. “With Will,’’ he said, “it’s like having a video machine.’’ Will’s knowing grin never needs rewinding; it’s constant and contagious. He’s got a knack for evaluating punters and is quick to advise. That goes for NFL players and his brother,
Thomas, an LCC punter. “I think for a kid like Thomas, he can run around and the world is blur,’’ Darren said. “But Will is sitting in his chair and he sees the world, especially sports, in slow motion. “And that’s not really unique to Will, a lot of MD kids are the same way. They have this ability to have these acute observations and see things that we don’t see.’’ Many a TV football Sunday features Will and Darren disagreeing on what just happened. “I will grab the remote to review it and it is exactly what he said, 95 percent of time,’’ Darren said. “We say in Australia that whatever you lose on the merry-goround you make up on the swing. He can do that with what he sees visually.’’ So Will is sought after and not just by punters, but coaches, too. Near the end of a Mavericks contest, Sovacool called a play. Then the buzz of Will’s wheelchair was heard. “Uh, Coach,’’ Will said. “You know you can take a knee here and the game is over.’’ That’s Will, and it’s done with a reassuring nod and personality that makes him easy to embrace. When Will speaks, everyone listens — if they’re smart. “We call him Willapedia,’’’ Darren said. We call your attention to the JBowl, next month’s fundraiser which helps Will and others fighting Muscular Dystrophy. A bunch of Chargers will attend, ditto some familiar faces in ex-Charger Jacques Cesaire and Darren. It’s a fun night for a fun guy, and it’s Nov. 11 at the Kearny Mesa Bowl. Not only can you demolish the pins, but you get to meet Will — if you hurry, as he’s a man on the move. He’s looking to continue his education, and coaching, at San Diego State or the University of San Diego. Here’s a hint to those respective coaches, Rocky Long and Dale Lindsey: don’t sleep on this blue-chip coaching recruit. “Everyone likes Will,’’ Darren said. The kicker is Will knows his stuff.
Jay Paris can be heard talking Chargers football on 1090 AM on Monday and Friday mornings. He’s also the Wednesday morning cohost of “Hacksaw and Company.” He can be reached at jparis8@aol.com and followed on Twitter @jparis_sports.

to himself for a while. “On my Saturday nights, instead of going out and having a good time with friends, because I didn’t have any, I stayed home and played guitar,” Matkin said. And that really helped me advance.” “At the time, it felt pathetic, but now that I look back, it was crucial to where I am now,” Matkin said. “I never would have embraced that inner musician.” To fit the secluded times, he dropped his electric guitar and went acoustic. He started listening to artists like folk musician Passenger, paying more attention to lyrics. Matkin also started experimenting with alternate tunings to give his music “more feel,” he said. “The calmer music fit where I was at,” Matkin said. “It’s so raw.” His music remained private until last year, when a classmate convinced him to show off his vocals. “She said I had a good voice,” he said, adding that gave him confidence. With that boost in confidence, he soon started performing at E Street Café during open mic nights. “Singing was always something I did quietly in my room because I didn’t want anyone to hear,” Matkin said. “I was projecting (at E Street Café). That was scary, but great.” From there, he started recording original songs. And at the beginning of this past summer, he entered the

After not hearing anything back, he forgot about the music exchange, until an email from the program arrived in his inbox last month. “I couldn’t believe it; I was in,” Matkin said, adding that receiving praise from Matthews was the icing on the cake. “His application was interesting in that he’s only been writing for a short time,” said Chris Amos, director of educational media and technology with Carnegie Hall. “The song he submitted was still very polished.” As part of the music exchange, Matkin will collaborate with the other songwriters, both from the U.S. and South Africa. And they’ll open for some of South Africa’s biggest acts at the CDMA Route 40 Music Festival in December. Thus far, Matkin’s approach has been decidedly introverted. But he looks forward to bouncing ideas off others. “I want to know what we each bring to the table,” Matkin said. “And I’m looking forward to learning new ideas from them.” Soon, he’ll realize his goal of playing in front of a large crowd, and yet he doesn’t want to stop there. “I want to do what I love for the rest of my life and make an honest living so I can support myself and my family,” Matkin said, noting his parents have been especially supportive.

Carlsbad is because of the coastline resources,” he said. Barberio said that many residents suggested more benches and restrooms, bike trails along the beach, beach equipment rental shops, concession stands and oceanfront dining venues. But with most of Carlsbad’s beaches owned and managed by the California State Parks Department, enhancements on the beach itself lie mostly out of the city’s hands and would take years of collaboration with the state. So the city has developed a new strategy focused on making headway on projects along the coastal corridor, which is under the city’s control and would not require approval from the state. In doing so, the city would realize the benefits of these projects, such as enhanced user experience, increased safety and potential private investment, sooner. Under this direction, the city would specifically look to develop new “livable streets” projects along the entire stretch of Carlsbad Boulevard. These projects could include replacing stoplights with roundabouts, adding pedestrian crossways, expanding bike lanes, and improving coast walkways with benches and public art.
Before Carlsbad is already in the process of completing a livable streets project on State Street where a roundabout, bike lane, streetlights, pedestrian crosswalks, and vegetation will be added as rendered in the image below. The city plans on developing similar projects along Carlsbad Boulevard as part of its new coastline improvement strategy. Images courtesy of the city of Carlsbad
After Previously, the city had been working on a possible land exchange with the state in order to realign Carlsbad Boulevard, which
would push the road’s southbound lanes to the east and make room for beach amenities, added parking and more. The project was limit-
ed from only Cannon Road to the southern city limit. “We felt like the discussions with the state were too narrow,” said Peder Norby. Norby previously played a large role bolstering downtown Encinitas, but was hired this summer to work as a consultant on Carlsbad’s city enhancement projects. Under the latest strategy, the city would also work to develop a broader partnership with the State Parks Department to cultivate new beach projects in addition to the potential land exchange. City staff pointed out that Carlsbad’s beaches have become lackluster when compared to nearby cities that have enhanced their coastline. Encinitas completed an upgrade of Moonlight Beach this summer that included a new concession stand, beach rental shop, restrooms, and lifeguard station. In 2011, Solana Beach renovated its Fletcher Cove Community Center, which overlooks the ocean. “Our neighbors are stepping up their game and our residents are saying is it possible for Carlsbad to do the same?” said Norby. “The goal is to redesign Carlsbad Boulevard.” City Council unanimously approved the new coastline improvement strategy. City staff will come before council at a future date with proposed coastal corridor projects with a timeline and budget.

Could this be your solution to numbness, tingling, or shooting 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.

The best kept secret in college prep schools By Cliff Pia
Education is a very hot topic these days, especially if you’re a parent of a teenager entering a college preparatory school (grades 7 through 12). With the business landscape shifting so quickly, how can we prepare our kids for what’s REALLY coming up in their future when it seems business is changing at the speed of technology? It used to be that colleges only looked at GPAs and test scores when deciding whom to accept, now they look at a multitude of other factors including critical thinking, social skills, leadership aptitude and community service. Even the companies who will hire our kids after college (we hope) are changing their hiring criteria. In a recent interview with Laszlo Bock, Google’s senior vice president for people operations, he said, “GPAs don’t predict anything about who is going to be a successful employee. “Google is looking more for people who like figuring out stuff where there’s no obvious answer.” It would make sense that other companies will be thinking this way very soon as well, since Google seems to be leading the way in many respects. Creative problem solv-
ing, individuality, raw creativity, and innovation are what cutting edge companies are looking for, but these are skills rarely taught in traditional schools. I always wondered why institutes of learning don’t structure their curriculum more like IT incubators, where the kids are encouraged to innovate, solve problems creatively, and think for themselves in an environment that’s as supportive as it is rigorous. Why not teach our kids how to think, more than we
teach them what to think? Sounds too idyllic? I thought so too, until I found one of the best-kept secrets in North County San Diego: The Grauer School in Encinitas. I had done my research and looked at every potential college prep school in the area, and there are many good schools, but when I visited Grauer, spoke to the teachers, the parents, and then the students, I realized what Grauer had that the other schools didn’t — an unbelievably positive culture.
The teachers love their jobs (Grauer was voted one of the Top 10 Best Places to Work in the entire U.S. in this year’s Outside Magazine); the students love going to school (seriously, my son and daughter both can’t wait to get back after they have a week off); and colleges love Grauer. That was the part I wasn’t expecting. How does a school that doesn’t add inordinate pressure and stress to the kids’ lives, and is actually enjoyable turn out high performing students? I don’t know
how they do it, but they do. It turns out the kind of kids that come out of Grauer are exactly what many of the “Top Twenties” like Columbia, Cornell, Brown, and Dartmouth are looking for. In fact, the 2013 senior class received at least $300,000 each in merit scholarship offers from colleges and most kids are getting offers from their first college of choice. That’s impressive by any standards…especially from a school where everyone seems so happy. I can only guess that the reason I hadn’t heard about Grauer is that they only have 150 students by design, so unlike most other schools in the area, their motive isn’t to fill more seats, but to find the right students to fit into that culture and thrive. It’s a unique model but it seems like one that’s more adapted to the changing landscape of business and more in line with the “real world” than any other I’ve found. You can visit Grauer and meet Stuart, his staff, and current parents of students Nov. 2 when The Grauer School is having an Open House at 1500 S. El Camino Real, Encinitas, CA 92024. Their phone number is (760) 944-6777. Hope to see you there.
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.

Upgrade your home by making it ‘smart’ Bring your home into the 21st century — it’s not as hard as you might think, even if your home isn’t brand new. With technology being evermore integrated into our daily lives, it’s no wonder that homeowners are looking to use that technology to make their homes “smarter.” From anywhere in the world you can control your home to become not only more energy efficient, but also add an extra sense of security — and even a coolness factor. Imagine turning your home’s lights on or off while still at work, all from the convenience of your Apple® iPad®, iPhone®, iPod Touch® or other smart device. Imagine adjusting your home’s thermostat so that it’s already at the perfect temperature when you get home from a long day of work. That’s what Southwest Audio Visual can do for you and your home.

While City Council unanimously agreed that the library improvement needs to be a priority, some were hesitant about using reserve funds, which are kept aside for emergency purposes. In total, the expansion would cost an estimated $35 million. So far, the city does not have any funds allocated for the library’s enhancement, and may consider a bond in the future to cover the bill. Abed expressed concern
enough to pay attention to the details to ensure our customers’ systems work like they are supposed to, and to focus on great customer service after the project is complete. This approach allows us to avoid problems that would typically be encountered with other companies that are just now trying to break into the industry. We design a system so that it’s almost bulletproof. Our pre-planning procedures reduce the chances of system glitches and failures, which results in less service calls for us.” Kauzlarich said. Kauzlarich is a CEDIA (Custom Electronic Design Installation Association) certified installation technician from Chicago, Ill. He has been in the custom integration business since 2001 after graduating from Purdue University with a Business Management degree. And Diez is a graduate of the University of Southern California’s Music Department and has established himself in
record production and recording studio design for the past 15 years. These experiences fostered his audio attentiveness when he began working as a custom integrator in 2006. Between Kauzlarich and Diez, meeting their clients’ needs is all about listening to what they want. Helping someone realize the possibilities that are available, and then being able to design a customized system based on the customer’s desired result, is at the heart of their service. The small, local, independent company also prides itself on using in-house, knowledgeable staff to complete a project from the ground up. In order to live up to their customer service philosophy, Southwest Audio Visual only takes on a limited amount of projects at one time, ensuring that their clients receive all the attention they deserve. Keeping up with the latest technological advancements is a job requirement at

Vigorous performances splash “The Fifth Estate” across the front page, but after reading between the lines, it becomes apparent that the mechanical way in which history is written has nothing truly revolutionary to witness. Many people have at least heard of the notorious news-leaking website WikiLeaks, and its founder/editor-in-chief Julian Assange. Regardless of the differing public opinions toward the impact he made on the world, one thing cannot be denied: his efforts had a profound effect on how information is spread, for better or worse. Although it can be said that his technological accomplishment was fueled by a spark of revolution, the same cannot be said for Bill Condon’s tedious representation of it. Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Daniel DomscheitBerg (Daniel Brühl) join forces to monitor the activities of society’s privileged and powerful. To do this, they create WikiLeaks, a website that facilitates the anonymous leaking of covert information, exposing the dark secrets of governments, corporations, etc. Pretty soon they find themselves publishing hard news at a rate faster than that of the world’s top media organizations. But Assange and Domscheit-Berg face their biggest dilemma when they acquire a treasure trove of classified U.S. intelligence files — a monumental discovery that pits the two against each other in a battle of ethics. Director Condon illustrates Assange and Domscheit-Berg’s history with WikiLeaks in a fast-paced manner, covering one stage to another at a speed that eerily mimics the distribution of information in our very own computerized universe. His frequent use of slick visuals — actual events making headlines in the papers, the virtual “workroom” of WikiLeaks — captures the rapid nature of the pair’s technologically enhanced communication methods. However, this comes at a cost; prioritizing appearance over foundation robs “The Fifth Estate” of its revolutionary fire. And without fire, you have nothing to strive for.

History plays itself out in an orderly manner so as to inform the audience nothing will be out of place, and Condon seems content to lie out the rise of WikiLeaks on paper and leave it that way. Unfortunately, his paper-flat depiction of WikiLeaks’ revolutionizing of media transparency doesn’t possess the same spark that fueled the real events on which the film is based. Condon fails to realize that every revolution — tangible or intangible — must have a fiery core to foment its purpose. Without such a flame, there is no conflict to experience, and given the varying reactions to Assange’s influence then and now, what we get instead is a story devoid of passion. By the time the United States government starts to become more involved in this information crisis, it is far too late to pull the film out of its perpetual state of boredom. Furthermore, the external crisis didn’t match up with its internal counterpart. It’s not too hard to notice the brotherly bond between Assange and Domscheit-Berg during their early years, not to mention the consequences of their falling out as the hard ethical questions begin to pop up. It might’ve been more productive if “The Fifth Estate” had made the impact of WikiLeaks just as meaningful as the relationship between its co-creators. How regrettable that we won’t ever see that happening.
There is, however, one critical piece of information that gives this film a legitimate reason to speak up, and that would be the cast. Benedict Cumberbatch takes a nuanced, methodical approach to Assange’s character, and his adroit handling of the moral ambiguity surrounding the man’s achievements is spot on. Daniel Brühl has this animated aura about him as he delves into Domscheit-Berg’s conscience-oriented mindset. David Thewlis turns in a shrewd performance as British investigative journalist Nick Davies, and Alicia Vikander instills a warm conviction in Anke, Domscheit-Berg’s wife. We also get to see the Americans’ perspective on WikiLeaks’ activities, courtesy of solid supporting turns from Anthony Mackie, Stanley Tucci, and Laura Linney. The cast alone is reason enough for anyone to see “The Fifth Estate,” but its mild treatment of the world-shattering website might leave a good number people feeling empty.

Children’s author to speak at festival By Lillian Cox
ENCINITAS — Author Edith Hope Fine is among a distinguished group of local residents who, after taking writing classes at MiraCosta College, went on to become bestselling authors. Last year her book, “Armando and the Blue Tarp School,” was one of three books selected by One Book, One San Diego 2012, a partnership between KPBS, the San Diego Public Library and San Diego County Library that has the community reading the same book at the same time. Judith Pinkerton Josephson collaborated with Fine on the book, which is based on the real life story of teacher, David Lynch, and his work educating the kids of the Tijuana dump. At 11 a.m. Oct. 19 Fine will participate in a Kids Author Panel at the Encinitas Library as part of The Book & Art Festival sponsored by the San Diego Community Library. Fine grew up in Michigan and admits to being “crazy about books,” even “reading books under the covers with a flashlight.” After graduating from Ohio Wesleyan University she first embarked on a career as an educator, teaching preschool, elementary, junior high writing classes and gifted students. She became a master teacher in Manhattan Beach before moving to Encinitas in 1973 and exploring a career as an author. “I took a writing class from Enid Norman at MiraCosta College in 1980 and began by writing articles for magazines and newspapers including the Blade Tribune, which I wrote for 13 years,” she explained. This is her fifth year sharing career advice at The Book & Art Festival. “Writing for kids is hard work but so rewarding,” she advised. “If you’re

a beginner, I suggest you use the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (scbwi.org) as a resource and get rolling on learning the ins and outs of the craft.” Encinitas branch librarian Amy Geddes is a longtime fan of Fine’s. “With her 17th book, ‘Sleepytime Me,’ coming out next year Edith Hope Fine is one of the area’s most prolific children’s authors,” she said. “Her stories are so original and touching. She writes of hope and joy! Each book has a different illustrator, but the pictures are always soft and inviting.” She added: “She has been part of The Book and Art Festival every year since its inception and we appreciate her greatly at the library for her support!”

Stevenson can play it by ear By Alan Sculley
Laura Stevenson knew from an early age that she loved music — enough, in fact, to believe it probably would always be a big part of her life. “Maybe not as a career,” Stevenson said in a recent phone interview. “But I knew I would use it as an outlet personally.” She grew up Nassau County, New York, with parents who loved playing music (Neil Young and the Grateful Dead were among the favorites) at their house. And music, in a literal sense, was in the blood of the family. Stevenson’s grandfather was Harry Simeone, the composer who wrote “The Little Drummer Boy” and “Do You Hear What I Hear?” Her grandmother, Margaret McCravy, sang for Benny Goodman. “Having the genetics that I do, like having that part of my brain be able to function well, I give that to my grandparents because they definitely just had that gift,” Stevenson said. Those familial connections also helped Stevenson develop a realistic attitude about music as a career.
“There’s always the fear that it’s not going to work out,” she said. “You have to have that view on it because if you’re just blindly going for it without knowing that it might not work out, I think it (failure) would be really crushing. I was always remembering that it’s a hard thing to make a career of.” Difficult yes, but singer/guitarist Stevenson has put in the work needed to develop a sustainable career. She debuted with a largely acoustic solo album, “A Record,” in 2010 and put together an early version of her backing band, the Cans, for touring. Next came her first fullband album, the 2011 release “Sit Resist,” which got considerable attention from the press for Stevenson’s catchy and frequently edgy rock-pop songs. Another round of extensive touring expanded the fan base to where Laura Stevenson and the Cans now headline clubs from coast to coast. Now comes her third album, “Wheel,” an impressive effort that should again TURN TO STEVENSON ON A26

the darkness of night. Wood said he would preferred to have gone through a search process to find a city manager the entire City Council agrees upon. “It was kind of a done deal in the back room,”Wood said. “They didn’t want to go any further.” Councilmen Jack Feller, Jerry Kern and Gary Felien said they support hiring Jepsen. Feller also served on the 2006 City Council, and recommended Jepsen for the job. “He started an awful lot of good things here,” Feller said. “He knows the cost of things and what’s necessary to make a coastal city thrive.” “There never was a cloud in my eyes,” Feller added.“It’s distant past now.” Kern also praised Jepsen. He said Jepsen is supported by the Oceanside business community and has met and gets along with current city department heads. “I’m happy to have him back,” Kern said. “The business community is ecstatic. I haven’t heard one negative comment outside of a couple of colleagues.” While previously serving as Oceanside city manager Jepsen issued several million dollars in pension obligation bonds, which significantly reduced Oceanside’s interest payments and unfunded pension liabilities to CalPERS. The 2005-06 fiscal year ended with a city budget of more than $30 million in general fund reserves. “A wealth of knowledge and experience is what he brings to the table,” Kern said. Jepsen said he recognizes that Oceanside has political challenges and vows to work with all City Council members. “Oceanside is a great place to live and a wonderful community,” Jepsen said. “It has a lot going for it. It has potential for a great future.” Some of Jepsen’s initial tasks will be to appoint a new police chief and head of the finance department. Weiss will stay on to get Jepsen up to speed.Kern said Weiss and Jepsen have worked together, have a strong relationship, and the transition is expected to go smoothly.
raise Stevenson’s stock. It’s the first album that Stevenson has made with what has become a stable current lineup of the Cans — Mike Campbell (bass), Alex Billig (accordion, trumpet), Peter Naddeo (guitar) and Dave Garwacke (drums). The familiarity Stevenson is gaining with her band allowed “Wheel” to become more of a collaborative project, even though Stevenson remained the songwriter. “There’s definitely a lot more input in terms of arrangements and where the songs are going to go in general,” Stevenson said. “Sometimes they’ll be like ‘This song should be faster.’ Or this song, ‘Sink, Swim,’ has like a calypso beat, and that totally evolves at practice because it started out kind of like fast, like a cool punk song. “Then we had to slow it down and put an interesting beat to it. So the songs totally evolve around the tastes and the skills of the other musicians in the band, absolutely. It’s definitely very fun to experience their take on something and then just kind of flesh that out and see where it goes.” Stevenson also sought out a producer in Kevin McMahon who could evolve the sound of her music. “Sit Resist” was a decidedly lo-fi affair, but for “Wheel,” Stevenson wanted to raise the production value. “I think that I wanted there to be more depth to it sonically,” she said. “I traditionally am drawn to the aesthetic of like a one-dimension-

wanted a spot in Encinitas with more eyeballs. “We knew we wanted to move it someday to a more visible location,” Nichols said, noting that traffic figures show 18,000 cars pass by the current spot per day. He added that he expects the mosaic to stay there for “quite a while.” “The place just has a really good vibe about it,” Nichols said. Leucadia Pizzeria owner Chip Conover, who heard “Surfing Madonna” was looking for a more permanent home, approached Patterson and Nichols with the idea of affixing the mosaic to his restaurant’s wall, which is on private property. “It looks really great here,” Conover said. While in proximity to its original location, “Surfing Madonna” is unlikely to draw as much scrutiny as it did in the past.This time around, the mosaic received the OK from the city, according to Nichols. After the mosaic went up two years ago at the underpass, the city said Patterson didn’t go through the proper approval process. Consequently, the city considered “Surfing Madonna” graffiti, ordering its removal. Many flocked to the piece before it was taken down, worried they might not see it again. Later, when “Surfing

Madonna” was in storage, the state denied a request from Encinitas to put it at the entrance of Moonlight Beach State Park, arguing the piece could potentially violate the constitution’s separation of church and state. This time around, Nichols said city staff members worried walkers preoccupied with gazing at “Surfing Madonna” might step into the road. But ultimately, the city decided the sidewalk in front of the piece affords enough space for viewing. Nichols also said added traffic was brought up by the city as another concern. He believes the mosaic might bring more cars to the area, but not for long. “Maybe there will be traffic during the first two weeks, but after a while everyone will say, ‘OK, there’s the Madonna,’” Nichols said. “It’s the same thing with the Cardiff Kook.” Patterson, Nichols and others spent nearly seven hours taking down “Surfing Madonna” from Café Ipe. During the removal, portions of the mosaic cracked and were later rebuilt. As an additional challenge, repairing it required finding the right kind of iridescent glass in Los Angeles, Patterson said. Plus, it took eight hours to reassemble the mosaic, now bordered by a yellow frame. To improve the ambiance, plans call for landscaping and building a patio in front of the

over?” Roberts said approval of the permit without the modification “opens the door for legal challenges from many environmental groups.” “After so much progress has been made toward mending fences, such challenges would be unfortunate,” he said. “Why ask for a delineation study and then ignore it? “This does not adversely affect the operations of the fairgrounds,” Roberts added, even though restoring the southern third of the east lot to wetlands would result in the loss of an additional 1,400 parking spaces. Several of the more than two dozen speakers said a traffic study indicates the fairgrounds could make up for the lost parking by restriping the existing lots and using offsite parking at Canyon Crest Academy and Cathedral Catholic High School. Adam Day, who was the 22nd DAA president when the settlement was reached, said the speakers misinterpreted the traffic study.
piece. In 2010, while on vacation, Patterson studied mosaics for a few weeks at a school in Italy. After returning home, he quit his job at Microsoft, and spent the next nine months piecing together the mosaic. Little did he know, not long after its debut, “Surfing Madonna” would spur a tribute song, a wine label and even a 5-10K run to be held Nov. 16. Nichols explained that the 5-10K will benefit the nonprofit Surfing Madonna Oceans Project, which Nichols and Patterson founded. Following the event, the nonprofit will present $20,000 in youth scholarships to lowincome students studying marine biology and oceanography. After that, ocean- and beach-related projects will compete for $20,000. In a twist, registered participants can cheer for their favorite project. The project that registers the most noise on a decibel meter will receive funding. The 5K is $39, and those who choose to do the 10K will pay $49. Register at surfingmadonnarun.org. Between the run and the mosaic’s move, Nichols said he hopes the nonprofit’s message spreads. “This is the perfect time for us to deliver the message of how important our oceans are to our community,” Nichols said.
“We can’t just restripe out lots and pick up that many spaces,” he said, adding that the study didn’t take into account lost spaces in the east lot. He also said the offsite locations “are far from certain,” as they are out of the fairgrounds’ jurisdiction and would not be available when school is in session. We cannot afford to lose 1,500 more spaces on top of 1,200 we’ve already lost, he said. “My proudest accomplish as president, and I believe the crowning achievement of our board, was the historic agreement we entered into with you and your staff,” Day said to commissioners, calling the settlement “monumental and historic.” “The attitude of our previous board … was that we were not subject to the Coastal Act,” he said, noting the current board opted to “sit down in a cooperative fashion to move forward together.” “By not approving the permit, it brings us back to a point in time … when our two agencies” were on the verge of litigation and in the midst of a 15-year feud.

“I greatly hope that we don’t go there,” he said. Day said the agreement was “a delicate balancing act,” and he would be willing to discuss further alternative mitigation impacts, including deeding in fee to an environmental group a 4.5-acre piece of property near the horse park east of Interstate 5. “The suggestion by the JPA to give up any portion of the east overflow lot is a nonstarter,” he said. “It doesn’t work and it’s not good from an environmental standpoint.” He said the wetlands in the south lot are considered prime, while those indicated in the east lot are degraded. Dick Bobertz, JPA executive director, said his group would need time to consider accepting the parcel east of I-5 as mitigation. Commissioners Greg Cox and Mark Vargas supported granting the permit, but their colleagues opted to continue the discussion to allow the stakeholders an opportunity to work out a compromise. “I’m very disturbed by the fact that we’re going to lose that quantity of wetlands,” said Commissioner Dayna Bochco, who moved for
al sound, kind of like a wall-ofsound thing, where it’s not like instruments are stacked in a way where you can’t see the depth. It’s more like fuzzy and blaring and trebly, and that’s what I like aesthetically. I was trying to get away from that because I wanted to experience listening to it like I experience playing it, and I hear the drums and they sit in a certain place. The bass is in a certain place,the guitars are separated in my ears. So it’s nice to have that actual sonic separation.” The extra sonic detail enhances the songs on “Wheel,” which are ambitious and cover a wide spectrum within the pop idiom. They run the gamut from big-boned catchy rock (“Triangle” and “Eleonora”) to pure pop (“Runner”) to dreamy orchestral pop (“Every Tense”) to spare acoustic ballads (“The Move”). “Sit Resist” was multifaceted as well, which should allow the new songs to fit well in the live shows Stevenson and the Cans will play this fall. Stevenson said the mix of old and new material will depend on what she senses the audience prefers. “We’re going to play it by ear, but we’re prepared to play a lot of them (new songs),” she said. “We’ll see what the energy of the crowd is calling for. If they seem like they want to hear more songs from ‘Sit Resist’ than ‘Wheel,’ then we’ll figure that out. But we’re ready to play a lot of (“Wheel”), and I’m really excited about it because they’re really fun songs to play. Some of them are hyperemotional, some of them are just really rock rippers to play. It’s going to be a well rounded set.” Make a wish “show the younger generation they can make a difference in the community at any age.” Her goals for next year are to compete for Miss Teenage California and continue pursuing a degree in business administration.

Day said there are currently no requests to pave anything and to do so would require a separate Coastal Commission permit. The next commission meeting is scheduled for Nov. 13 through Nov. 15 in Newport Beach.

CITY OF CARLSBAD ORDINANCE NO. CS-231 AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING TITLE 7 OF THE CARLSBAD MUNICIPAL CODE WITH THE ADDITION OF CHAPTER 7.16 WHEREAS, the City Council of Carlsbad, pursuant to its police powers delegated to it by the California Constitution has the authority to enact laws which promote the public health, safety , and general welfare of its citizens; and WHEREAS, City of Carlsbad staff members and the Department of Animal Services for San Diego County presented reports to the Carlsbad City Council on July 16 and September 17, 2013, on Pet Adoption and Animal Advocacy that included a discussion of why California cities are passing ordinances regulating commercial pet sales in an attempt to thwart “puppy mills” and “kitten factories”; and WHEREAS, according to the Humane Society of the United States, hundreds of thousands of dogs and cats in the United States have been housed and bred at substandard breeding facilities known as “puppy mills” or “kitten factories” that mass-produce animals for sale to the public, and many of these animals are sold at retail pet shops; and WHEREAS, the City of Carlsbad is currently without an enforceable ordinance prohibiting pet stores from displaying, selling, delivering, offering for sale, bartering, auctioning, giving away, or otherwise transferring or disposing of dogs or cats; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that it would be detrimental to the welfare of the community to be without the protection of an ordinance eliminating the retail sale of dogs and cats in pet stores to preserve animal welfare; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that it is necessary for the public welfare to immediately recognize the importance of animal welfare, provide a humane environment in the City, and save animal lives; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that it is necessary to immediately protect and preserve animal welfare in the community which may be jeopardized by retail pet stores which begin to sell dogs and cats bred in puppy mills and/or kitten factories and/or new retail pet stores which could locate in the City at any time and sell animals bred in such conditions; and WHEREAS, this ordinance is adopted pursuant to Government Code section 36937 allowing the adoption of such urgency ordinance to take effect immediately to ensure the immediate preservation of public peace, safety and welfare in the City of Carlsbad; and SECTION 1. Now, therefore, the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, California does find as follows: a. Existing state and federal laws regulate dog and cat breeders, as well as pet stores that sell dogs and cats. These include the Lockyer-
Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Priority Posting and Publishing at 714-573-1965 for information regarding the Trustee's Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08000555-13-1.

Polanco-Farr Pet Protection Act (California Health & Safety Code section 122125 et seq.); the Polanco-Lockyer Pet Breeder Warranty Act (California Health & Safety Code section 122045 et seq.); the Pet Store Animal Care Act (California Health & Safety Code section 122350 et seq.); and the Animal Welfare Act (“AWA”) (7 U.S.C. § 2131 et seq.) b. The Lockyer-Polanco-Farr Pet Protection Act requires pet dealers (i.e. retailer sellers of more than fifty (50) dogs or cats in the previous year; not including animal shelters and humane societies) to have a permit, maintain certain health and safety standards for their animals, sell only healthy animals, and provide written spay-neuter, health, animal history and other information and disclosures to pet buyers. If after fifteen (15) days from purchase, a dog or cat becomes ill due to an illness that existed at the time of the sale, or within one (1) year after purchase, a dog or cat has a congenital or hereditary condition that adversely affects the health of the dog or cat, an owner is offered a refund, another puppy or kitten, or reimbursement of veterinary bills up to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the purchase price of the puppy or kitten. c. The Pet Store Animal Care Act requires every pet store that sells live companion animals and fish to formulate a documented program consisting of routine care, preventative care, emergency care, disease control and prevention, veterinary treatment and euthanasia. d. The Polanco-Lockyer Pet Breeder Warranty Act offers protection similar to that of the LockyerPolanco-Farr Pet Protection Act, except that it applies only to dog breeders who sold or gave away either three litters or 20 dogs in the previous year. e. The Animal Welfare Act requires, among other things, the licensing of certain breeders of dogs and cats. These breeders are required to maintain minimum health, safety and welfare standards for animals in their care. The AWA is enforced by the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”). f. According to The Humane Society of the United States, American consumers purchase dogs and cats from pet stores that the consumers believe to be healthy and genetically sound, but in reality, the animals often face an array of health problems including communicable diseases or genetic disorders that present immediately after sale or that do not surface until several years later, all of which lead to costly veterinary bills and distress to consumers. g. According to The Humane Society of the United States, hundreds of thousands of dogs and cats in the United States have been housed and bred in substandard breeding facilities known as “puppy mills” or “kitten factories” that massproduce animals for sale to the public; and many of these animals are sold at retail pet stores. Because of the lack of proper animal husbandry practices at these facilities, animals born and raised

are more likely to have genetic disorders and lack adequate socialization, while breeding animals utilized are subject to inhumane housing conditions and are indiscriminately disposed of when they reach the end of their profitable breeding cycle. h. According to USDA inspection reports, some additional documented problems found at puppy mills include – (a) sanitation problems leading to infectious disease; (b) large numbers of animals overcrowded in cages; (c) lack of proper veterinary care for severe illnesses and injuries; (d) lack of protection from harsh weather conditions; and (e) lack of adequate food and water. i. While “puppy mill” puppies and “kitten factory” kittens were being sold in pet stores in San Diego County during the past year, thousands of dogs and cats were euthanized in city and county shelters in San Diego County . j. The homeless pet problem notwithstanding, there are many reputable dog and cat breeders who refuse to sell through pet stores and who work carefully to screen families and ensure good, lifelong matches. k.Responsible dog and cat breeders do not sell their animals to pet stores. The United Kennel Club (“UKC”), the second oldest allbreed registry of purebred dog pedigrees in the United States and the second largest in the world, asks all of its member breeders to agree to a Code of Ethics which includes a pledge not to sell their puppies to pet stores. Similar pledges are included in the Code of Ethics for many breed clubs for individual breeds. l. Within the past year, there has been significant community activity in many cities in California to convince local pet store operators to convert from puppy sales to a humane business model offering adoptable homeless dogs and cats to their customers. m. Across the country, thousands of independent pet stores as well as large chains operate profitably with a business model focused on the sale of pet services and supplies and not on the sale of dogs and cats. Many of these stores collaborate with local animal sheltering and rescue organizations to offer space and support for showcasing adoptable homeless pets on their premises. n. While the City Council recognizes that not all dogs and cats retailed in pet stores are products of inhumane breeding conditions and would not classify every commercial breeder selling dogs or cats to pet stores as a “puppy mill” or “kitten factory”, it is the City Council’s belief that puppy mills and kitten factories continue to exist in part because of the public demand and the sale of dogs and cats in pet stores. o. The City Council finds that the retail sale of dogs and cats in pet stores that operate or choose in the future to operate in the City of Carlsbad must be consistent with the City’s goal to be a community

group sessions employing visual art, movement, music, drama, Alessandra comments, “I felt very strongly that patients would benefit from a regular, long term program and being committed and engaged in a progressive, ongoing process.” Alessandra began offering Expressive Arts Therapy “Playshops,” which guide participants to get in touch with their creative, healing energy and wisdom. She says,“My sessions are an opportunity for self-discovery, and to share laughter, joy and hands-on playful time with others. “Through spontaneous creativity, children and adults alike experience a deep transformation, which results in increased awareness, behavior
modification, reduction in conflicts and improved sense of wellbeing, inner strength, confidence, and resilience.” She continues, “Expressive Arts Therapy offers a wide array of intuitive, engaging and playful tools to reawaken the healing power from within, to connect with our unconscious where wisdom and awareness reside. What’s important is the process, the discovery and creation, not the product.” Through SDCRI Alessandra offers several ongoing programs including “PhotoPainting,” in which participants transform experiences and inner dialogues into meaningful images that tell their story; “The Artful Book of Wonders” — altered books as visual journals; “Artful Recipes for Life” — a box filled with unique cards to
express qualities to support patients’ healing journey; “The Artful Bra” — channeling healing qualities and personalities into outrageously, over-the-top decorated bras and purses; and “Meditation Bracelets” — inspired by Mala beads, to support mindfulness and patients’ meditation practice. The programs are free to cancer patients and their caretakers throughout San Diego County with pre-registration required at sdcri.org. Alessandra’s most recently inspired project “Hope Made Visible™” is a call to patients in creating prayer flags to share hope, dreams and healing. She shares her enthusiasm, “Through social media and networking, we are starting to receive flags from all corners of the world. Every time we receive a box with magnificent, unique flags with
their heartfelt messages, patients feel connected, moved, and hopeful.” The “Hope Made Visible™” prayer flags will be on display in the Encinitas Community and Senior Center in 2014, after which Alessandra hopes to have them travel to various venues throughout the region. She projects, “Our flags will be a living, breathing, kinetic journal of our hopes, dreams and concerns.” In addition to her work at SDCRI, Alessandra facilitates her Expressive Arts Therapy program through many organizations including the UCSD Moores Cancer Center, works with individuals with developmental disabilities through the California Mentor program and is a faculty member at International University of Professional Studies where she
mentors graduate students, and provides stimulating and competent art education to elementary school children through ArtReach San Diego. Enthusiastic in her experimentation with all non-toxic materials, in 2007 Alessandra joined her husband William Leslie in creating Paper Sun Lightsculptures, gracefully artistic lighting fixtures currently represented by Mixture, a modern furniture and home accessories store in San Diego, and the Gallery of Functional Art in Santa Monica. With degrees in Linguistics and Fine Art, Alessandra is currently working towards a Doctorate Degree in Expressive Arts Therapy. Her dissertation explores her thesis that “the Expressive Arts transform the consciousness of individuals from the
opposites of co-dependency and disconnect to deep interconnectedness by raising empathic awareness and restoring resilience, which are essential qualities for humans to thrive.” In the process of helping others, Alessandra has found her passion, her true life’s calling.

Police collect winter clothes for the kids CARLSBAD — Corp. D. Ernst of the Carlsbad Police Department Patrol Division is sending out word about the beginning of the annual winter clothing drive on behalf of North County children taken into protective custody. The recent storm reminds the community that winter is almost here and there are many youngsters in need of appropriate clothing. On Oct. 2, Ernst set up bins for the collection of new jackets for Drug Endangered Children (a division of SD County Welfare Services).The collection bins will be in the lobby of the Carlsbad Police Department, at 2560 Orion Way and the common area outside of dispatch until the end of October. Last year, the program collected hundreds of jackets
that were immediately put to good use. While the children taken into protective custody get a small amount of money to purchase used clothing, they rarely use the money to purchase jackets, pajamas and undergarments. “Please help us to lessen their burden during their difficult transitions,” Ernst said. The children range in age from newborn to 17 years.

Douglas resigns from foundation, search begins for replacement
JEAN GILLETTE Small Talk
Loathe to scrub I stood over the sink, grumbling and grousing as I scraped and scoured that scorched pan. Scrubbing pans has always been a chore I loathe, but this time my grizzling was aggravated because the end result had tasted like goat sweat.I made a stab at adding heated milk to some coffee, hoping I might create something palatable in place of the store-bought latte I longed for but had no time for. One might blame my slapdash method of microwaved coffee as part of the problem. Whatever the case, the end result was dreadful, leaving me caffeine-free and grumpy all morning, with a burned pan for my trouble. All I could think of as I waged war with that pan was that my mother took such satisfaction in making a pan sparkle. She kept her cookware looking like new,including the copper, and I am in awe of that to this day. I left home thinking things didn’t get spotted, dingy or worn out, because somehow, in my mother’s house, they never did. It was supremely annoying to discover that hours of elbow grease went into keeping that furniture polished, the cobwebs at bay and the windows clean. It was even more irritating to realize I had no affinity for those tasks. In my next life, I want the joy of a shiny pan to be worth having hands that resemble an alligator’s backside. I want vacuuming behind the dresser to delight me enough to be worth straining my back to move it. I want to be able to whip up a mouthwatering piecrust in an hour and master the art of TURN TO SMALL TALK ON B20

OCEANSIDE — After 11 months on the job heading up numerous fundraising efforts, Tri-City Hospital Foundation Executive Director Farrah Douglas resigned in early October. An immediate search for the next executive director has begun. Douglas resigned from her position as executive director to devote more time to her duties as Carlsbad councilwoman. “We are so appreciative of Farrah’s strong leadership, passion and dedication to the Tri-City Hospital Foundation, the medical center and its mission,” Kevin Stotmeister, Tri-City Hospital Foundation board of trustees chairman, said. “Farrah has recruited a strong team of fundraising professionals and a committed board of community leaders as well as producing successful fundraising events that have engaged the medical center and its community in new ways. In a short amount of time she has contributed a lot.” The timing of Douglas’
resignation puts the foundation in a bit of a pinch. It is set to hold its major fundraiser in early November. “We are scrambling, candidly,” Stotmeister said. “We have a major event in November and don’t have a suitable interim.” The annual Diamond Ball gala will be held at the Park Hyatt Aviara on Nov. 2. The black tie gala features auctions and live entertainment, including performances by the finalists in the TriCity Rock Star employee talent contest. The job of foundation executive director is anticipated to be filled within three to eight weeks. The position calls for a candidate who displays high energy, has the ability to network and work well with staff, and has experience fundraising for a nonprofit. While the search for a new executive director is under way, foundation board members, administrators, and Tri-City Medical Center staff are filling in to help TURN TO DOUGLAS ON B20
67-year-old pipeline breaks in Rancho Santa Fe By Tony Cagala
RANCHO SANTA FE — Early Tuesday morning an aged water main pipeline on Lago Linda Lane and the nearest cross street of Avenida de Acacia erupted sending an unknown amount of water into the streets and into some nearby homes. The Santa Fe Irrigation District responded to the call and had the water shut off in about 40 minutes from the time they were notified, according to Jessica Parks, public information officer/management
analyst with the Santa Fe Irrigation District. Parks described the water main as an 8-inch, ACP (Asbestos Concrete Pipe) pipeline — a type of pipe that the district no longer uses. The pipeline was put in place in 1946 prior to the homes in the area being built, she explained. “It’s not in the public right-ofway. It’s actually a pipeline that travels through the easements of the private properties.” Those pipelines are expected to have a lifetime
of about 75 years. The most recent water main inspections came in 2009, though because of the pipeline’s location going under private property, and because the stretch of pipeline in question was in an area where they haven’t had many failures, it wasn’t inspected The water district does have an asset management plan in place and they do look at the pipes that do need to be replaced, she added. “We will look at this after the fact and see if
there’s anything else that we need to do within that area,” Parks said. Crews repaired a 5-foot section of the pipeline and they’ll assess what, if anything else will need to be done with the pipeline. As of 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, water was restored to the six homes that were without water due to the shutoff. At this time, there haven’t been any estimates of damage, but the water district is aware of three homes that have sustained water damage. She said their crews
and staff have been working with those homeowners. There were no external causes for the pipeline to break. “We believe that this was just stress on the pipe from roots and the weather,” Parks said. The Santa Fe Irrigation District maintains 150 miles of pipeline, which includes all of their service area that stretches into Solana Beach. Of those 150 miles, 80 percent of pipeline is of the ACP variety. The remaining 20 percent is of the PVC variety.

Fall heats up with annual beach bonfire
BY CHUCK SHEPHERD The Bar Is Always Open A 61-year-old Texas man admitted to a hospital not long ago appearing to be falling-down-drunk, even though denying having had even a single drink, was discovered to be unintentionally manufacturing beer in his stomach.With “auto-brewery syndrome,” stomach-based yeast automatically ferments all starches (even vegetables or grains) passing through, converting them into ethanol. Normally, natural stomach bacteria control the yeast, but if, for example, antibiotics had inadvertently eliminated the bacteria, the yeast would prevail.The case was reported in a recent International Journal of Clinical Medicine.

Government in Action
By Bianca Kaplanek
Update: As several additional states debate permitting marijuana use by a doctor’s prescription, Irvin Rosenfeld presented his own experience in August to a packed house at Kentucky’s state capitol. Rosenfeld suffers from painful bone tumors (diagnosed, with a poor prognosis, in 1963) and began smoking dope in the federal government’s C o m p a s s i o n a t e Investigational Drug program in 1982 — since then consuming 130,000 government-supplied joints (12 per day, carefully measured), which he said absolutely had prolonged his life. “I didn’t ask for my bone disease,” he said. “All I asked for is the best medicine possible.” While Congress struggled recently to pass a budget or an increase to the national debt limit, one program made it through rather easily, according to a September New York Times report: farm subsidies for inactive “farmers.” The subsidies were renewed, based on a 2008 law, virtually assuring that more than 18,000 in-nameonly farmers (who received $24 million last year) will not be cut off. Included, according to a 2012 Government Accountability Office report, were recipients at 2,300 “farms” that had not grown a single crop in five years (including 622 without a crop in 10 years). “Close Enough for Government Work”: The security contractor USIS, which does $2.45 billion worth of background checks for the National Security Agency and other departments (and had cleared fileleaker Edward Snowden and the Washington Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis), gets paid only for completed files. However, full background checks often require months of work, and at some point, reported The New York Times in September, when USIS needed cash, it would “flush” still-open files, treating them as completed, and submit them for payment — as happened with the files of Snowden and Alexis. In both cases, reported the Times, subsequent, crucial information failed to make it into the flushed files.
DEL MAR — Roasted marshmallows, spooktacular songs and scary stories fanned the flames of fun during the third annual beach bonfire, one of the hottest events hosted by the Del Mar Foundation’s Young Del Mar Committee. The free event, held Oct. 11 at Powerhouse Park, also included a visit from Sgt. Stinky Pants, aka Del Mar Heights physical education teacher Ian Phillip, who shared a story about being bullied in high school. With help from several volunteers, as well as Del Mar lifeguards and firefighters, the bonfire has become increasingly popular, attracting about 350 people in 2011 and 800 adults and children this year. Unlike previous years, only marshmallows and

Exposure 2013 spotlights women skaters COAST CITIES — Skateboarders will want to mark “Exposure 2013” on their calendars. This family event showcases the talents of professional female skateboarders from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Nov. 2, at the Mission Valley YMCA Krause Family Skatepark. Record holder and XGames silver medalist, Alana Smith will be coming from Arizona to compete in this event. Smith was the first girl to land a “McTwist” in competition, a one-and-a-half-rotation spin in midair. This year, she will attempt to land a 720, two full mid-air rotations, one of the most difficult and rarely executed tricks in skateboarding. There will be learn-toskate clinics, yoga tailored for skateboarders, food, raffles and a chance to meet top skaters. This event was created to share part of the proceeds with Carol’s House, an emergency women’s shelter and to help fund their essential life-skills programs for domestic violence victims seeking refuge. So, how did the women from Carol’s House and the professional skaters come together to produce an event? Even though these women come from vastly different places in life and with a signif-
icant age difference between them, they have one thing in common: they both know what it feels like to climb up from the bottom. “I felt scared at first but after awhile, I realized that I could do it. I knew I could achieve anything I wanted to.” Both the increasingly confident young skater and the increasingly confident survivor of domestic violence, speak these words. Oceanside resident, 24year old professional skateboarder and Exposure event producer, Amelia Brodka’s climb up has often been from the bottom of a deep bowl after falling off of her skateboard from several feet in the air. Skateboarders push physical boundaries as they “carve” along the steep walls of an empty pool or “bowl,” defying gravity — getting up each time they fall. The daring but dedicated eventually land the tricks. Brodka, sometimes bruised and hurt in her 12 years of skating, didn’t allow herself to be defeated by her falls. The other woman’s climb up is quite different than Brodka’s. She’s seeking refuge at Carol’s House. Her climb is not out of the bottom of a skate “bowl” but out of an abusive marriage. For 45-year-old
Nancy, her climb out is equally arduous, faltering and has shaken her confidence. Just like her skateboarding counterpart, Nancy felt defeated, bruised and often hurt.Tired of maintaining a facade of normalcy and a “healthy” family unit, Nancy took herself and her son to Carol’s House and changed her life through the back to work programs and counseling there.

ANIMAL CONSERVATIONIST PROMOTES AWARENESS FOR BONOBOS By Tony Cagala
ENCINITAS — Animal conservationist Claudine André sits on a balcony overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Cardiff. André was allowed the simple luxury of a small break during her weeks-long fundraising and awareness tour along the West Coast. Days before, André was in the Democratic Republic of Congo, as it’s known today, where she lives and operates a sanctuary for bonobos. In a country roughly less than a fourth the size of the U.S., the Congo is often thought of as a place of constant war and struggle. But it’s also a place where André, who had moved there in 1951 when the country was under Belgium’s control with her family, has experienced emotional peaks and valleys from happiness to sadness. “What I know, violence entered my life when I was 14,” she said. “Violence is a part of my life…But Congolese people are not violent. It’s always (a) political problem. But it would be not the same if we are in South Africa or in Kenya, where people are really very strong. “Congolese people are not at all like this,” she said. Her father, a veterinarian, was a worker for the Belgium administration. Living in east Congo near Berundi, André developed her love of animals there. She and her family would remain in Congo until the country received its independence, which became a difficult period for Congo. About six years later, André returned to Congo.

Claudine Andre visits the bonobo exhibit at the San Diego Zoo while on a fundraising and awareness tour along the West Coast. Her bonobo sanctuary in Congo, Lola Ya Bonobo helps care for and conserve the apes.
In 1991 the Congo was entering another difficult time. André was living there with her husband as the country began to enter into more political turbulence. When the violent periods would subside, businesses would rebuild and life as it was there, would resume. But in 1993, more political unrest would infiltrate the country, leaving very little behind its destructive wake. Prompted by a friend, André would go to the zoo in town to see what condition it was in. And there she found a desperate situation — lions starving, leopards, too, including about 30 men there in a similar state. “We have to do something for the zoo,” she would tell her husband later on. And she still remembers the look he gave her and his reply: “Yes, why not?” “It was completely irrational,” she said. Still she began collecting trash from around the destroyed city; she would
accept stale food and bring that to the zoo for the animals and the men. “We survived all, during this bad time,” she said. For several months this went on, until a man would come to the zoo with a bonobo. She didn’t know what to do with it. It became a second challenge for her — the first to save the zoo — the second to save this bonobo. This bonobo she nursed back to health, eventually giving him the name, “Mikeno,” the name of a local volcano. As word got out, more and more bonobos would be dropped off under her care. Ten years later, André would create Lola ya Bonobo, which translates to “paradise of the bonobo.” She’s cared for 80 bonobos to date, trying to return as many to the wild as possible. Their funding comes from 75 percent grants and 25 percent fundraising. During her West Coast tour, André visited the San Diego Zoo, one of few facilities that house the bonobos. “A lot of people — the average person — doesn’t know what a bonobo is,” said Michael Bates, a bonobo keeper at the Zoo.“There’s not a lot of awareness there.” “They’re our closest liv-

ing relative. If you look at genetics – 99.5 percent is the same DNA as us,” he said. The Zoo has housed the bonobos since the ‘60s and was one of the first zoos to have the animal, Bates explained. Why so few zoos house the apes has a lot to do with the economy, Bates said. “We were breeding bonobos very well in the U.S. and in Europe and we wanted new zoos to come online and build exhibits — it’s expensive to house these animals. “It’s expensive to build the exhibits – a proper exhibit for them, so at the time when our economy started declining, we had several zoos…all wanting to build exhibits and house bonobos, but that’s not possible at the moment.” According to André, it costs about $5,000 to treat and care for bonobos at her sanctuary. The total amount of bonobos that are left in the wild is still unknown, but André said that it was probably ranged from around 5,000 to 10,000 to 15,000. Their biggest threat comes from the industrial bush meat market. Snares left in the
bonobo’s habitat, a small portion of Congo, catch the apes, oftentimes leaving the baby bonobos orphaned. “We are not really against the bush meat, if it’s for the village,” André said. “In each village, its hunter (is) very clever. They know if they kill too much animal, they have to work to find the next time.” What she and other conservationists are against is the industrial form of the bush meat market. “We are the last step in the chain of this bush meat,” she said. “Bonobos have done really well in captivity, I think, because of their personalities, their social structures,” Bates said. “You need appropriate facilities to house them. I think every bonobo should be in the wild; we all think they
should be in the wild. “But we, as stewards for that species, we’re keeping what’s left of the bonobos in the wild, educating people and hoping people like Claudine can protect bonobos in the wild. That’s where they should stay.” (André) has bonobos that were raised from almost dead and are now making more bonobos, Bates said. André said there have been 12 births at her sanctuary, including three births in their release site. “One thing you can’t miss from the bonobos, any of the apes, but especially the bonobos, they’re a lot like us,” Bates said.“Most people like people, and it’s kind of like looking in the mirror at times.” But Bates was clear to point out that they are very unique in their own right.

About 80 years ago,author Marshal South and wife Tanya made a decision to leave conventional life for a life of “freedom.” In lieu of standing in the bread line during the Depression, they chose to rid their lives of social obligations and material possessions for a life of isolation and naturalism by moving to Anza-Borrego’s Ghost Mountain. For the next 17 years Marshal, Tanya and their three children, lived on Ghost Mountain in a home they built by hand, hauling water and essentials to the top of the mountain. Marshal South chronicled their experiment in primitive living in a monthly-running series in Desert Magazine for nine years until 1948. Each month readers were captivated by stories of how the

family was handling their backto-nature experiment. The family survived for all those years through Marshal’s writings and artistic creations that provided the income to buy the necessities needed to live on a barren mountaintop. Rider South, Marshal’s oldest child, was a teenager when his mother and siblings left Ghost Mountain and moved back into society, settling in Point Loma. Rider continues to have vivid memories of his early life on Ghost Mountain and his father’s creative efforts to provide for his family. Rider was cognizant of the fact that his father’s writings and artistic creations were the source of family income.

Learning problems do NOT have to be permanent In order for someone to be a good learner there is an entire continuum of learning skills that must be in place and working efficiently. The ability to read, write, spell, understand math, and even pay attention. These are all dependent on a series of “underlying” skills. The traditional approach to learning difficulties in bright students assumes that these skills are in place and functioning. If kids aren’t successful, the next step is to accept that they have a different learning “style.” This includes the belief that these students will always have these issues... that learning problems are unsolvable and that parents should “be realistic about what their child will able to do.” Schools and tutoring help students to adapt, to get around the learning problems, to “use their strengths” to “find their own way.” It is a little like riding a bike with flat tires. Unfortunately, this kind of support does not typically solve the problem. Students remain dependent and less capable than they have the potential to be. It does NOT have to be this way. When school is not going well, parents look to tutoring as a solution. But tutoring often doesn’t work. Most learning challenges including auditory processing,
dyslexia, ADD or ADHD can be dramatically improved or permanently corrected. At the Therapeutic Literacy Center, we do MORE than tutor. We help children and adults ELIMINATE their learning challenges. Many students can cover or compensate for a learning

While the 3rd/4th grade level is common to diagnosing learning difficulties and disabilities, some students may get to middle school or high school before help is sought. Clinically, we have found people at the graduate degree level before they finally seek remediation. How far a student CAN go before help is required will
be different for each person. But help is available and should be sought at the earliest possible time, because “compensating” is stressful even when not outwardly visible; it requires far too much energy. And it doesn’t fix the problem. What can be done? There are two ways of dealing with learning difficulties. The most common method used is to treat the symptoms by giving students extra work on basic skills, as well as more individual attention. Our approach is to attack the underlying processes that interfere with attention and learning (yes, ADHD children CAN learn to focus their attention). We know that children and adults of at least average intellectual potential can and should become proficient learners. Because the traditional methods have not worked for some, we know that they must be taught in a different ways – not just individualizing the same old methods. By concentrating on underlying processes, along with developing the needed basic skills, we have been able to help students who, until now, have enjoyed only limited success in school.

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. Your child can get a better education at the Montessori Adolescent Academy because we have an
individualized focus, small classroom sizes (12-1 ratio), and interest driven curriculum. We currently are enrolling for 1st through 6th grade and will grow each year creating a middle school program that extends to 9th grade. Our school is nestled onto 1.5 acres of land with a full play area and large field of grass to accommodate the physical expression.

Reading means succeeding Did you know that thirty percent of San Diego’s third graders aren’t reading at the appropriate grade level? In fact, in some parts of the county, that number is as high as seventy-two percent. United Way of San Diego County is working to change those numbers. Statistics show that kids who can read by the fourth grade are more likely to excel in school, go to college, and succeed in life. The good news is that things are improving, but clearly we have a long way to go. We know students only spend twenty percent of their time in the classroom. So reading must begin with parents — a child’s first teacher — and continue with everyone who encounters that child: neighbors, friends, family, volunteers. We all have a role to play. That’s why United Way is working to improve earlygrade literacy — not only to benefit children, but the entire community. United Way focuses on school readiness and improving early-grade literacy. We’re teaching parents the importance of being reading role models to their children, who need to see them reading and enjoying books.
Our Women’s Leadership Council helped scale up Community HousingWorks’ Running Readers program, dedicated to improving literacy across San Diego County. Running Readers has since expanded from nine to fifteen sites, engaging over 1,200 children and their parents in family literacy nights, while distributing almost 600 books for them to take home. When kids have their own books, they’re more likely to read. That’s why we’ve focused our annual Day of Action around a summer reading book drive. Over the last two years, United Way distributed 46,000 bilingual books to students, many of them low-income or English Language Learners. Does reading really impact high school graduation rates? Absolutely! Experts say that early intervention can make all the difference. Helping kids strengthen reading skills early on is critical, and here’s why: Until third grade, children are learning to read; but by fourth grade, they’re reading to learn. And thirdgrade reading is a proven indicator of high school graduation. United Way is also leading or participating in
other education initiatives that focus on reading proficiency as a key milestone, such as the City Heights Partnership for Children, a collaboration of residents, non-profits, philanthropies, businesses and government organizations that support youth from cradle to college and career. We also joined with other organizations to support Chula Vista Promise Neighborhood, helping to revitalize the Castle Park neighborhood and its schools. The community-led plan supports healthy child development and academic excellence for the area’s students. Additionally, for the last year we’ve been active in the Diamond Educational Excellence Partnership work group, a collaboration of community leaders and organizations committed to improving third-grade reading proficiency among children in southeastern San Diego’s Diamond community. Lastly, through our Volunteer Challenge we’re recruiting education volunteers: You can be a classroom reader, a middleschool tutor or a mentor for teens. Four thousand people have already signed up.

EDUCATIONAL O PPORTUNITIES New medical approach
Improves reading skills For years educators have used phonics to teach students to read. While this method tends to work for many, it doesn’t work for many others. Research has shown that students that do not display substantial improvement in their reading ability after three to six months of traditional reading tutorial are likely to have an undiagnosed vision or vision processing problem. Although reading well requires proficiency in both auditory and visual processing skills, reading requires more visual pro-
cessing than it does auditory — just try reading with your eyes closed. Now, through the work of Dr. David Bloch and his company Reading Without Limits, Inc., reading disabilities can be medically diagnosed and treated. Using a four phase evaluation, the specific auditory and visual factors limiting a reader’s ability can be isolated and remedied. Through a series of drills which emphasize visual pattern recognition, enhance eye tracking, and improves eye coordination, students
become better readers quickly and easily. The Reading Without Limits program improves everything from word recognition to fluency, including reading speed, tracking, comprehension, and even spelling. It is so effective that most students show significant improvement on their first treatment session and are proficient in less than three months. Based on the results produced by this program, Reading Without Limits, Inc. has found The Ultimate Solution to Reading Problems.
Program for low-income pre-schoolers What is CDI Head Start? CDI Head Start serves the needs of income eligible children and families in North Coastal San Diego County. There are two sites in Encinitas and one in Solana Beach. The program serves 250 children along with providing family services. Head Start is a national program for low-income preschoolers and their families. Services focus on education, socio-emotional development, physical and mental health, and nutrition. Education Head Start’s educational program is designed to meet each child's individual needs. Our program uses the following curriculums: Creative
Curriculum (Center Based, and Home Base Program). Every child receives learning experiences to foster intellectual, social, and emotional growth, implements individualized quality care, teaching and learning to achieve school readiness for all children. Children participate in indoor and outdoor play and are introduced to words and numbers. They are encouraged to express their feelings and to develop self-confidence and the ability to get along with others. Health and Social Services We collaborate with many community agencies to provide the best quality health services for our children, from immunization to complete medical
examinations. In addition, we educate parents on how to keep their children healthy. The social services component represents an organized method of helping families’ through community outreach, referrals and family needs assessments through the family partnership agreement. Children with Disabilities Head Start mandates requiring at least 10 percent of our enrollment be available for disabled children. Disabled children and their families receive the full range of Head Start developmental services. In addition, staff members work closely with community agencies to provide services to meet the special needs of the disabled child.
Collaboration leads to success The 2013 Noble Prize winner for Chemistry was announced on Wednesday, October 9, by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. This year’s award was for, in effect, a collaboration between three scientists, each born on a different continent, who came together in the United States in the 1970s to work in concert to better understand substances at an atomic level. Their synergistic, cooperative approach in integrating Newtonian physics and quantum physics resulted in the ability to model reactions involving large molecules,
which had previously been impossible. It was teamwork that supported the development of computer programs that now afford scientists a means of comprehending complex interactions between atoms, thus advancing the understanding of problems at the molecular level through the generation of computer models. Scientists Martin Karplus, Michael Levitt, and Arieh Warshwel, born in Austria, South Africa and Israel, respectively, and now all holding U.S. citizenship, demonstrated that they were more powerful intellectually
when working together, than when working alone. At The Rhoades School, our students, like the recent Nobel Prize winners, recognize that one person working in isolation is less effective than a collaborative team in making critical decisions and solving intricate problems. Collaboration requires them to listen, consider alternatives, be open to constructive feedback and embrace others’ ideas. Simply put, they appreciate that two heads, or sometimes three, are better than one. Regina McDuffie, Ph.D rmcduffie@rhoadesschool.com

Integrating a school-wide culture of Mindfulness and Leadership For the last four years, Pacific Academy in Encinitas (PAE), a private school serving 7th through 12th grades, has led the way in studentcentered education. Students’ needs, goals, and interests drive the curriculum and overall educational program – alongside research-based best practices — to support each individual student in maximizing his or her options after high school regarding college and/or careers. This approach has resulted in on-going modifications to meet the needs of incoming student populations, increased demands for college admission, and changing career trends. With the students’ best interest at heart, PAE is integrating a schoolwide culture of Mindfulness and Leadership in addition to revamping its Career and College Resource Center beginning this fall 2013. Mindfulness is a secular practice that has been proven to increase focus, reduce stress, and stabilize emotions in any situation (widely used in cognitive therapy and stress reduction). Vikas Srivastava, Director of Education Services, will be leading the effort through student seminars, teacher trainings and school-wide management. Srivastava is a long-time practitioner, founder of The

Center for Mindful Education, certified .b (dot b) teacher, and experienced educator. As a .b certified instructor, Srivastava is able to integrate the same .b curriculum that has been effective around the world in hundreds of schools (see mindfulnessinschools.org). In addition, as Director of Educational Services at PAE, Srivastava is able to integrate school-wide Mindful based practices in policies, procedures and protocols that integrate communication, compassion, and cooperation with students, staff, and parents to understand and resolve issues in the best interest of everyone involved — especially the student. “The hope is that the integration of Mindfulness throughout the school will serve as a model for students of the reality of structuring one’s family, business and community around these principles,” says Srivastava. In addition to Mindfulness, PAE firmly believes in bringing out individual leadership qualities in every student for whatever his or her path in life may be. “Leadership is the foundation of good choices,” states Dr. Erika Sanchez, Principal of PAE, “it supports the growth of all students in
everything they do.” The Leadership program consists of the same multi-layered approach with staff and student training and modeling the principles in practice. All students will have the opportunity to take the Mindful seminar in the Fall and Leadership seminar in the Spring. Students will then complete projects in the following years that integrate the principles of Mindfulness and Leadership, serve their communities, and give depth to their current coursework (also known as “projectbased-learning”). Stringing it all together will be the on-going life planning through the College and Career Resource Center, also led by Srivastava. “The College & Career Center is meant to empower students to envision their future goals and map a plan to achieve them,” says Srivastava. The center will offer consistent counseling, information on colleges and careers and resources for research and completing applications. Srivastava, Principal Dr. Erika Sanchez and owner Kelly Chu are the driving forces behind this new innovative approach to education because they are all ultimately passionate about student empowerment, success, and quality of life.

THE LITTLE TOWN THAT COULD Eâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;LOUISE ONDASH Hit the Road Cim MacDonald admits right up front that she has become adept at forging artwork, but this is a good thing. The artist is the Curator of Murals â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;a never-ending jobâ&#x20AC;? that requires maintaining and restoring the 40-some outdoor murals that grace the buildings in Chemainus (ShaMAIN-us). The picturesque town on Vancouver Island is about an hour north of Victoria, the capital of British Columbia. Reviving the murals of Chemainus, which depict railroad and lumber mill scenes, portraits of legendary residents, historic events and buildings and a way of life gone by, is a constant job, as the paintings are always under attack by sun, wind, rain and the occasional human. To keep them looking fresh, MacDonald must duplicate the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s style meticulously. Today, however, her job is less demanding. She is leading us on a private walking tour of the massive paintings which are scattered throughout the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old and new districts. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an amazing, ever-growing collection created by artists from Canada, the United States, Scotland, Germany and the Bahamas. As we follow MacDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quick pace, we see large tour buses pull up to the Visitor Centre. How did a former logging town of 4,000 become a destination that draws thousands of visitors a year? It began in the early 1980s with the closing of what was â&#x20AC;&#x153;once the biggest sawmill in British Columbia,â&#x20AC;? according to MacDonald.
Owners of the Owlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nest Bakery and Bistro, Jacky and Kara Lai opened their cafĂŠ in March on picturesque Willow Street in Chemianus. The cafĂŠ features gourmet coffee, from-scratch entrees and a wide selection of gluten-free goodies, mostly made with local produce and farm products. The bistro accepts Chemainus Dollars, local currency that helps keeps Colorful buildings line the streets in Old Chemainus. Many were constructed in the late 1800s when the largest money in the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chemainus is the perfect community in which sawmill in Canada was operating at full steam. The closing of the mill in the early 1980s couldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve created a ghost town until civic leaders decided to follow Karl Schutzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; idea and create an outdoor mural gallery that he to raise our son,â&#x20AC;? Jacky said. promised would draw tourists. Photos by Jerry Ondash
More than 700 people in Chemainus were left jobless. To counteract this economic disaster, town leaders and Karl Schutz, a German immigrant, successful businessman and civic activist, looked for ways to revitalize the town. Based on what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d seen during his worldwide travels, Schutz presented his vision of â&#x20AC;&#x153;magic murals.â&#x20AC;? The timing was right; Chemainus residents and business owners began what Schutz says was â&#x20AC;&#x153;the largest mural-painting project undertaken in Canada at one time.â&#x20AC;? Creating the Chemainus of today took the cooperation of the provincial government, the municipality, merchants and contractors. It meant finding artists and public relations experts, holding media events and figuring ways to raise revenue. A committee settled on a theme for the murals: replicating historic photos of the town. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an amazing story of cooperation and vision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Never let those who say it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be done stand in the way of those who are doing it,â&#x20AC;? says Schutz, 83, who drives about town in yellow Volkswagen Beetle festooned in flowers and butterflies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This wouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been a ghost town (without the murals). Chemainus is now known as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Little Town That Did.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? The promotion of Chemainus didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop with the murals. In 2010, working with the Coastal Community Credit Union and partners who threw in $1,000 each, the Chemainus Monetary Foundation was created. It printed exquisite bills of various denominations that feature the local murals.The bills (traded dollar-for-dollar for regular currency at the credit
Chemainus Dollars, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the official currency of Chemainus,â&#x20AC;? is accepted by many of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s merchants and helps keep 80 cents of every dollar in the community. Each of the seven denominations features Emily Carr, Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous artist, on the face of the bill. The reverse sides feature some of the 40-plus murals that grace the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s buildings.
German immigrant who came to Vancouver in 1951, Karl Schutz is known as the architect of the Chemainus Mural Project, which turned the once-dying sawmill town on Vancouver Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s east coast into a popular tourist destination. The 83-year-old has helped more than 100 communities with their economic development through the arts and tourism, including Twentynine Palms in eastern San Bernardino County.
union), can be spent only in Chemainus, including the boutiques, bakeries and restaurants on picturesque, colorful Willow Street. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It keeps the money in the community,â&#x20AC;? Schutz explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some merchants give discounts to those who use the currency.â&#x20AC;? Chemainusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; burgeoning arts community has received a lot of support from area businesses like the Best Western Plus Chemainus Inn. Photos and paintings by local artists hang in the lobby, and reproductions of historic photos line the hallways and hang in guest rooms. The dining room is named in honor of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous artist, Emily Carr.

Fire causes residents to file claims By Cpl. Brianna Christensen
CAMP PENDLETON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A fire that covered nearly 2,500 acres of Camp Pendleton lead to the evacuation of more than 330 residents who may now have to file claims for per diem and smoke or fire damages to their homes or property. According to the Staff Judge Advocate claims website, service members trying to recover from property damage caused by activities of the federal government that was not incident to service may do so in accordance with the Military Claims Act. Civilians may also recover under this act for damages resulting from non-combat activity of a peculiarly military nature. Home owners insurance or vehicle insurance can cover the damages and be repaid by the government. Going through the government directly can cause a two to three month wait for payments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The most common claims due to the fire are smoke damage, vehicle damage and hotel stays due to the mass evacuation of Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neill Heights Housing,â&#x20AC;? said Cpl. Christopher Hibbard, a civil law clerk with the civil law office. Residents will not be responsible for any damages to their homes due to the fire or smoke, according to Hibbard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lincoln Military or Hunt Military will cover all damages that were a direct cause of the fire,â&#x20AC;? said Hibbard. To file under the MCA, a claim must be presented

According to the order, â&#x20AC;&#x153;recharging of electric (government vehicles) will be accomplished by utilizing electric charging stations installed and operated by the installation.â&#x20AC;? Electric charging stations are available at the motor pool in the 22-Area, and Consolidated Vehicle Pool lot 11. The use of any government facility or electric charging station is prohibited for personal vehicle charging. However, personal vehicles may be charged at those Privatized Base Housing Areas whose tenants are billed for their electrical usage, as long as the user is in compliance
with all rules and regulations stated in the order. In accordance with the order, â&#x20AC;&#x153;recharging of personal vehicles in Privatized Base Housing must be conducted within the garage, driveway, or carport area. Use of extension cords outside of the garage, driveway, or carport confines is not permitted.â&#x20AC;? The cost of recharging an electric vehicle is about the same as operating an average central air conditioner for about six hours, according to United States Department of Energy. Andrew Killion, the director of military affairs for Lincoln, said â&#x20AC;&#x153;there are no restrictions on charging electric vehicles under the Resident Energy Conservation Program.â&#x20AC;? However, residents are required to notify Lincoln Housing if they own electric vehicles so that the extra energy expense can be calculated into their monthly billing statement.

The only 2 rewards cards you need Divorce offers baby One card is good, but two is better if you want the most money back from your credit card purchases. In August, Consumer Reports Money Adviser applied that hypothesis to more than 60 rewards card programs using a variety of spending scenarios based, in part, on Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer spending data and market research. It turns out that spreading the right purchases across the right two cards can earn you hundreds of dollars more in annual rewards than just one card. Here are the best two cards for three different types of spenders. THE FULL HOUSE Your family spends about $3,900 on gas and $5,700 on groceries a year, the national average for a couple with children, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. On a credit card budget of $3,000 a month, you’re also spending heavily on entertainment, clothes and utilities. Your two best cards: American Express Blue Cash Preferred and Fidelity Rewards American Express Your rewards total: $1,070 in the first year; $1,980 over two years Your strategy: The AmEx Blue Cash Preferred card offers you 6 percent cash back on groceries (on up to $6,000 a year) and 3 percent on gas.
To get the maximum rewards in those categories, Consumer Reports Money Adviser says to put all of your monthly grocery and gas purchases on that AmEx card. Put the rest of your charges on the Fidelity Rewards AmEx, which gives you 2 percent cash back on all of your other purchases.You can pocket that cash or put it into a Fidelity individual retirement account, a brokerage account or your family’s 529 college savings plan. THE ROAD WARRIOR Whether it’s for work or play, you spend lots of time on planes and in hotels, and you want to e a r n rewards so your next globetrotting trip is free. Three-quarters of your credit card spending is in travel-related categories such as airfare, hotels, rental cars and dining, and you charge a total of $3,000 a month. Your two best cards: Barclaycard Arrival World MasterCard with double points and PenFed Premium Travel Rewards American Express Your rewards total: $1,550 in the first year; $2,420 over two years Your strategy: The PenFed card and the
Barclaycard let you use your points for trips on any airline. The PenFed pays an impressive 5 points back on every dollar spent on airfare. If you use it to charge flights
but put your other travel expenses and the rest of your charges on the Barclaycard to take advantage of its travel reward of 2 miles for every dollar spent, Consumer Reports Money Adviser says you’ll reach the reward totals noted above. The Barclaycard also gives you $400 worth of travel points if you spend $1,000 in
the first three months. You can redeem your Barclaycard points on such sites as Kayak, Orbitz and Travelocity. But the PenFed card requires you to use its agent to book your travel. THE SMALL-BUSINESS OWNER You’ve got a wide range of expenses that include travel, dinners with clients, office supplies, communications costs and advertising. According to a 2012 analysis of more than 12,000 members of Shoeboxed.com, a service that lets small businesses track their spending, the average amount was $2,245 a month. You need cards that earn you cash that you can plow back into your business or provide travel points that you can use for your next business trip. Your two best cards: American Express SimplyCash business card and Capital One Spark Cash business card Your rewards total: $710 in the first year; $1,260 over two years Your strategy: To maximize your rewards, Consumer Reports Money Adviser says to use the AmEx card for 5 percent cash back on your monthly spending on office supplies and telecom expenses (such as your phone and Internet service) and for 3 percent cash back on gas. Your other small-business spending should go on the Capital One card.
New flat-rate health care offered to uninsured SAN MARCOS — Health Care Reform open enrollment has kicked off and new insurance options will soon be available to a larger population in 2014, but for the estimated 20 percent of North County residents who are currently uninsured, a new option will soon be available. North County Health Services (NCHS) is kicking off a new, one-fee payment option to help. As of Oct. 1, anyone without insurance can come to one of North County Health Services’ 10 locations and pay a flat fee which will cover their visit, all labs, any X-rays or procedures they would need. This flat fee would range from $40, $50 or $60 depending on income and family size. This is unprecedented as community clinics, or health centers, typically charge a low fee for the visit and any testing, procedures or lab work is all an additional discounted, but extra, expense — until now. “We wanted to make accessing health care easier for our community, and give patients the peace of mind knowing they won’t have any looming laboratory or other related bills after their visit. It really goes back to the heart of our mission,” said Deizel
Sarte, COO of North County Health Services. Uninsured resident Jordan Kloos, agrees. Kloos, an Oceanside small business owner, is spending 12- to 15hour days working to establish his start-up lighting company and, like many in the community, is uninsured. “With owning my own business, the cost of health care and insurance plans simply exceeds what I can afford at the moment.” When Kloos gets sick, he explains he typically uses over-the-counter medications or cough syrups or looks to the Internet, like WebMD, for
advice. “If I get sick, I would consider spending the money out of pocket to see a doctor, but what I worry about is the potential extra expenses,” said Kloos. “I don’t want to go in and know what’s wrong and not be able to afford the solution. It’s the extra testing or expenses that I worry about. The unknown really keeps me from even considering it.” NCHS believes this new payment structure will help open the door to many in the North County area who find themselves uninsured. While this new low fee doesn’t cover prescription
medications patients may need, North County Health Services does have pharmacies on site at their two largest locations, in San Marcos and Oceanside, offering discounted rates to qualifying patients. Additionally, NCHS also offers same-day appointment availability and transportation services. For more information, visit nchs-health.org or call (760) 736-6767.

Many of us grew up in households where our parents had lived through the Depression. One thing was for sure back then; kids were meant to be seen and not heard.

director, Emertis of the Peace Resource Center of San Diego and founder of the San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice. Joya was only 4 in 1982 when her family fled Afghanistan to the refugee camps of Iran and then Pakistan. She finished her education in Pakistan and at 19 began teaching literacy courses to other women. After the Soviets withdrew in 1998, she returned to Afghanistan where she established an orphanage and health clinic. Soon she became an outspoken opponent of the Taliban who had seized control of the country. Joya gained international prominence in December 2003 when, as an elected delegate to the Constitutional Loya Jirga, she spoke out publicly against the domination of warlords. Subsequently, she was elected to the 249-seat National Assembly as a representative of Farah Province, winning by the second highest number of votes. Today, she is married and heads the non-governmental group Organisation of Promoting Afghan Women’s Capabilities (OPAWC). Jahnkow said that the fact that she is in San Diego County for the 12th anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan is poignant in that many of the country’s

problems are due to the continued military presence. “The occupation by both U.S. and NATO troops has resulted in more bloodshed, more crimes against women, more human rights violations and more looting of their resources by the Americans,” she explained. “The people of Afghanistan believe their country has been changed into a mafia state because during those 12 years tens of thousands have been killed by occupation forces and terrorists groups such as the Taliban and warlords.” Even more destructive to society, Jahnkow said, is the fact that Afghanistan has become the center of the drug trade. More than 90 percent of opium in the world is produced in Afghanistan. “This is more dangerous than the Taliban and warlords because it destroys life in Afghanistan,” she explained. “Today, about 2 million people are addicted to opium, mostly women and children. The fact that they can make money from opium has led to corruption.” She added that the Taliban had a ban on opium from 1994 to 2000, prior to the invasion. “When they were kicked out it opened the door for opium to come back,” she said. The Peace Resource Center of San Diego formed the San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice in anticipa-
tion of retaliation after the U.S. invasion on Oct. 7, 2001. The group created a dialogue by inviting others to address what they thought was going to happen next. For Joya, that eventually meant that her safety and well-being would become more uncertain as she continued to stand tall and voice her opinions. “Since 2004, there have been seven reported assassination attempts on Malalai's life, and two of her bodyguards have been shot,” said Rick Greenblatt of the San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice. “In Afghanistan, she is forced to live in safe houses, and wear a burqa on the street so that she is not recognized. She’s playing a serious game here and she is not playing for low stakes. She’s putting her life on the line.” The presentation is sponsored by the Peace Resource Center of San Diego, San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice and the Al Awda Center who is hosting the event. The tour is sponsored by the United National Anti-War Coalition (UNAC) and the Afghan Women’s Mission. There is no charge for admission; donations will underwrite the cost of continuing Joya’s work. Books will be available for purchase. For more information, visit sdcpj.org or call (760) 390-0775.

thing wrong and therefore we couldn’t wait to get out of the house and on our own as soon as we could — none of this staying home on our parents’ insurance until 26.I was no different than my peers. I was on my own the minute I graduated from high school. I was still 17. With our newfound freedom coupled with an angry sentiment about the world around us due to the Vietnam War, many decided that life after 30 was for old folks. Throughout our late teens and mid-20s, we men figured we were going to get drafted and killed in a war so far away. We consciously or subconsciously decided that we might as well live life to its fullest since it may be a short one anyway. We took to experimenting with drugs. We weren’t drug addicts; we were just trying to find ourselves. With a laissez-faire attitude we lived a life of free love. As Stephen Stills sang: “Love the one you’re with.” Baby boomers eventually put those free love thoughts on a back burner. We acknowledged that our parents had stuck out marriage even if they were unhappy.There was a stigma to divorce in our parents’ generation. But, as we BBs aged and raised our families and then sent our children out into the world we looked at our spouses and mumbled: “Is this all there is?” After 26 years I had a

with the upcoming event and foundation duties. The mission of the foundation is to support the medical center by raising funds for programs, services and capital needs that the medical center annual operating budget does not cover. This is done through annual fundraisers, estate donations and other efforts. The impact of the foundation has been significant. Tri-City Hospital Foundation has raised more than $43 million to benefit health and wellness efforts since its inception in 1964. Many of the medical cen-
remember who is who and what has been said to whom. What a dilemma especially when no one really wants to give up their freedom. Yes, freedom is a very precious thing and it is also something we don’t want our kids to read about in history books in the future either. They say that generations skip. That means our kids will likely be like our parents. They’ll probably get married and stay married for the long haul and even spank their children. But our generation is singing Crosby, Stills and Nash songs and reverting back to our youth.What a strange way for us to find peace. In closing, my daughter’s and my book has just come out. It is called “Answers: Bridging the gap between Christianity and Spirituality.” I hope you’ll have a chance to buy the book or borrow it from someone who has. My daughter and I have some pretty eye-popping stuff in there. In the meantime, I’ve got a bunch of e-mails from Match.com to answer from ladies who aren’t going to have any real interest in me anyway. It’s like the greyhound our family had when growing up. She would chase skunks and then pay the price after catching the darn thing.We, too, are on the chase but don’t want the prize either. What a goofy life.
marriage end not in acrimony but with pats on each other’s backs for a job well done raising our kids. But we decided not to emulate our parents. Most of us decided it was time for each other to fulfill the wishes of our past and to live out life to its fullest with a sense of freedom. I think our generation is now considered the most divorced generation that has ever lived. We are reverting to our youth and looking for peace and adventure. And, during the adventure we are linking up with others who are living the “love the one you’re with” attitude all over again. And, oddly enough, we are still great friends with our exspouses too. Strange, but not bad, and good for the kids too who are now adults. I, too. am on Match.com along with about half of my generation and you know what? I’ve come to realize that no one really wants to find their soul mates because if they do, they’ll have to settle down again. There is a lot to say about complete control of your life. No compromises, no concessions, but no real companionship either. Two out of three isn’t bad. Those boomers on Match.com are pretty well set in their ways. Trying to wedge someone new into the routine is pretty tough. Besides, freedom is precious so we’re talking to a lot of the opposite sex. We can almost be called “players” because we practically have to keep a blackboard with names and faces to

Foundation fundraising efforts have provided the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System, Siegel Family Surgical Suites, Beatrice Riggs French Women’s Center, and Edgar and Jo Anne Jones Women’s Diagnostic Center. The foundation also raised funds for the emergency department expansion, and NicView, NICU camera-system, which is a password-protected webcam system that allows parents and relatives to remotely view family newborns. This has provided a great bonding opportunity

Case # 37-2013-00063811-PR-LACTL To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Lois Thelma English A Petition for Probate has been filed by Thomas David English in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego. The Petition for Probate requests that Thomas David English 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 action 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: November 14, 2013 at 1:30 P.M. in Dept. PC-2, located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO, Probate Central, 1409 Fourth Ave, San Diego, CA 92101 If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code Section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Sticking to moderate and practical plans will ensure that you progress with minimal setbacks this year. If you have critical decision to make, you should seek the advice of experts for the best results. Less waffling and more calculated action will lead to success. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Not everyone will look out for your best interests. Take a hands-on approach when dealing with know-it-alls. Overreacting and indulgence should be controlled. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Your talent and ability to get a job done in an innovative manner will win favors as well as enhance your reputation. You’ll be called upon to do something special, so be prepared. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Look before you leap. Excitement and adventure may be beckoning, but so will danger, delays and unfortunate consequences. Stick close to home, where your efforts will be appreciated. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You’ll be torn between what you want to do and what you are being asked to do. Offer to take on more if it will ensure that you get to do both. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — You may need to make a sudden change of direction.Your emotions will not lead you
astray. Follow your heart and engage in whatever activity promises to get you closer to your goals. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Ask, and you shall receive.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Don’t veer off in different directions. It’s important to stick to whatever you are working on until you finish. A special reward awaits you if you honor a promise. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — A secret can have an impact on an important decision. Do whatever it takes to uncover information that is sensitive in nature. Your intuition, coupled with persistence, will pay off. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Initiate a plan and watch everything unfold before your eyes. Don’t expect everyone to be happy with your actions, but it will help you weed out who is on your side and who isn’t. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Press for what you want. Don’t hold back and don’t give in. The more direct you are, the better you will do. Your intuition is acute and will help you make the best choice.
