Audubon Society holds annual bird count

By Promise Yee

REGION — Over 100 volunteers gathered early in the morning at meet up points around the Buena Vista Lagoon for the annual Audubon Christmas Bird Count on Dec. 27.

The Christmas Bird Count happens nationwide

from mid-December to early January.

The bird count is touted to be the largest citizen collection of scientific data.

The count provides biologists and researchers a coast-to-coast snapshot of local ecosystems. Infor-

mation is used to identify trends in species and habitats, prioritize conservation efforts, and plan and manage land use.

“It’s the largest, most successful, and most important citizen science project,” Andy Mauro, an ornithologist who oversees

the Buena Vista Audubon Society count, said.

Twenty-five teams of volunteers count birds within eight miles of the Buena Vista Nature Center. Each team has specific sites within the overall TURN TO BIRDING ON A15

New mental health facility plans moving forward

By Steve Puterski

ESCONDIDO — The San Diego County Board of Supervisors are moving forward with plans to construct a new facility for mentally ill patients in crisis.

Two weeks ago, the supervisors unanimously approved $900,000 to demolish existing buildings on county-owned proper-

ty, which will lead to the construction of the North Inland Crisis Residential Facility on East Valley Parkway.

In addition, the county received a $3,688,468 grant from the California Health Facilities Financing Authority.

In February, the board authorized advertising for a design-build contract for

the facility and appropriated $3,578,425.

According to Supervisor Dave Roberts, the demolition will “hopefully” be completed in the next several months. As for the new building, Roberts said plans have not detailed an exact completion date.

Nevertheless, Roberts said the facility is a major boost for those suffering

As part of its outreach program to educate Del Mar residents and businesses about a proposed single-use plastic bag ban, the city’s Sustainability Advisory Board is planning a public screening of “Bag It: Is Your Life Too Plastic?” Courtesy image

Outreach for bag ban getting under way

By Bianca Kaplanek

DEL MAR — With the first reading of an ordinance to ban single-use plastic bags scheduled to go before City Council in about a month, the group that requested the prohibition is ready to begin its outreach program to educate residents and businesses about the new law.

At their Dec. 17 meeting, members of the Sustainability Advisory Board, or SAB, outlined their upcoming efforts, which include providing information and a frequently asked questions section on the city website and distributing posters and signs to businesses.

They are also planning at least one public showing of a documentary that describes the environmental effects of plastic, including the single-use bags provided by many grocery and retail stores.

SAB members said they would like to screen “Bag It: Is Your Life Too Plastic?” at Powerhouse Community Center before the draft law is introduced next month. A discussion with Emelia DeForce, a biologist who has studied the impacts of plastic in the ocean, will follow if she is available.

They are also looking TURN TO BAG BAN ON A15

North County’s first year-round shelter opens in Escondido

By Promise Yee

ESCONDIDO — Interfaith Community Services Haven House opened its doors as the first North County year-round shelter two days before Christmas.

Kurt Leorise, 45, is one of the 49 men and women to move in. He said Haven House is a godsend.

Leorise has been homeless, off and on, for the past seven years. The night before he moved into the shelter he was sleeping on the streets under an awning. He said this winter has been difficult with rains getting everything wet.

Leorise moved into the shelter Dec. 23. He pointed out his bottom bunk, and the soft pillow he now sleeps on.

Haven House provides the basics of a bunk, bedding, a personal locker, two hot meals and a case management worker. There is also limited access to showers, laundry facilities, computers and a phone.

Leorise said he is looking forward to next steps for himself. His goal is to secure a full-time job in construction or warehouse work.

He said his challenges are to locate a local manual labor job, connect with employers with limited computer skills and secure 40 hours of steady work a week.

The transitional housing program is geared to give a hand up to homeless individuals who are working or those like Leorise, who

Women’s bunks at Heaven House await clients who are set to move in.

are on-track to gain employment.

Greg Anglea, executive director of Interfaith Community Services, said participants are assessed for need through the North County 25 Cities initiative program.

Those who would benefit from 60 days of temporary housing assistance are accepted to Haven House on a first-come basis.

After two months in the program clients are expected to be employed full time and find permanent housing. Haven House also

provides move-in assistance and support as needed through clients’ first year.

The shelter facility is a former automotive garage.

It still has the original glasswall front offices and roll up back doors. Building ventilation and insulation were upgraded, and overhead lighting and a new coat of paint were added.

Past the front offices are two newly remodeled handicap-accessible restrooms, followed by rows of metal bunkbeds lined up in the windowless former ga-

rage space. A small couch, TV and a couple of tables and chairs sit between the men’s and women’s bunks.

“It’s a bare bones layout,” Anglea said.

Interfaith Community Services uses adjacent buildings on the site to provide additional community services.

The daily routine at the shelter follows practices of the previous winter-only emergency shelter, which had a 57 percent success rate of participants securing permanent housing.

Clients in the program work at the adjacent comcheck in at 5:30 p.m., take puter lab or following up on a breathalyzer test to assure leads. they meet the sober requireAnglea said the program’s success will require community donations, volunteering and people hiring and renting to program clients.

“It’s about creating a continuum of care for the poorest and most vulnerable in our community,” Anglea said. “With a year-round Greg Anglea shelter, we can, and we will, Executive Director, Interfaith provide better tomorrows Community Services for those facing difficult todays.”

Take the renewable fuel standard down to zero

Major highway repairs unlikey in 2016 California Focus

By Thomas D. Elias

I

t will be no surprise if Californians don’t see many needed highway repairs getting underway in the next year.

For the Jerry Brown administration says it will take $59 billion to repair state roads and another $78 billion to fix those maintained by cities and counties.

This magnitude of repair money is not available from the state’s general fund or from current gasoline taxes, which are carved up into many pieces, the money going for things like building hydrogen refueling stations and mass transit in addition to fixing roads.

So it will take either higher gas taxes or a major bond issue to bring California highways up to the standards they enjoyed for more than 50 years prior to about 1990, when raids on the gasoline tax fund began in earnest.

But Republicans hold just over one-third of the seats in both houses of the state Legislature, and they are adamantly against new taxes, especially any that might be proposed by the majority Democrats.

It would take at least one GOP vote in both the Assembly and the state Senate to get the twothirds vote needed for a gas tax hike without a general election vote.

Plus, no bond money could possibly be available until the middle of 2017, even if legislators manage to settle on how much to borrow and then convince voters to okay their plan.

There are three roots to the state’s difficulties in getting new highway money.

One is the long history of politicians “borrowing” from the gas-tax-fueled highway fund and then not repaying the money in a timely way. That leaves a lot of Californians distrustful of putting more money there.

A second problem is the GOP’s longstanding opposition to new taxes of any kind. Ever since President George H.W. Bush famously intoned at the 1988 Republican National Convention in New Orleans, “Read my lips… No New Taxes!” and then reneged on his pledge, only to be dumped from office after just one term, his fellow Republicans have been loath to okay any new levy.

Third is the general level of public distrust for

money for other programs, thus freeing up general fund budget money for roadwork, voters might be distrustful that highway money would even really be voted, seeing anything like this as more likely to create a massive slush fund for politicians to draw upon as they please.

But Brown remains optimistic about getting at least something done.

“The roads are going to get fixed,” he told reporters last fall. “Whether it takes a week, a month, a year or two, ultimately…it’s just a question of when.”

That’s probably right, but the when probably won’t arrive in 2016 or anytime before Democrats somehow manage to capture two-thirds majorities

But Brown remains optimistic about getting at least something done. state government and the bond issues it proposes.

One such bond was to fund high speed rail, but the current bullet train plan is so far afield from what voters okayed that it draws opposition even from Quentin Kopp, the former judge and state senator who was a leading progenitor of the entire concept.

Other major agencies have been caught in corruption and cronyism, but don’t bother to change the rules that permitted it, and Gov. Brown exerts no pressure for such repairs.

And what if a bond issue does make the November ballot?

It could be buried among as many as four dozen other propositions and get little attention from voters even if many millions were spent to promote it.

If that bond proposal were written to provide

in the Legislature. They had that margin sporadically between 2012 and 2014, but only for short intervals, as several Democratic legislators vacated their seats to run for other offices, leaving Assembly or Senate seats unoccupied and unable to contribute to supermajorities.

In the meantime, there’s enough money for the most urgent repairs, like the repaving, lane and offramp replacements prominently visible now on two of the state’s main north-south highways, Interstate 5 and California 99.

But not enough for new roads, new ramps, replacing most worn-out bridges or fixing even very bumpy, pothole-riddled pavement.

The Environmental Protection Agency recently issued new rules dictating that 18 billion gallons of biofuels must be blended into America’s 2016 transportation fuel supply.

This mandate, known as the Renewable Fuel Standard, has been a disaster for the country.

The only sensible minimum renewable fuel mandate is zero.

The RFS was created in 2005 to curtail greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the use of fossil fuels.

However, the RFS is not defensible based on its impact on greenhouse gas emissions.

Once the life cycle of ethanol is considered (ethanol is the prominent biofuel used to meet the RFS), ethanol does not reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Producing this cornbased biofuel actually creates more greenhouse gas emissions than fossil fuels.

How much more? An analysis by the Clean Air Task Force found that “corn ethanol’s net emissions over 30 years are approximately 28 percent higher than the emissions that would result from the use of gasoline over that same period.”

That’s because ethanol production requires forests, wetlands, and grasslands to be converted to new cropland.

In fact, 8 million acres of wetland and grassland were converted to grow corn between 2008 and 2011.

These forests, wetlands and grasslands are important carbon sinks that naturally remove greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere.

Destroying these lands to supply the RFS

has released up to 236 million metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Ethanol’s drawbacks do not end with more greenhouse gas emissions.

There are also unintended consequences that impose economic hardships on families, particularly lower income families.

The RFS creates an artificial demand for biofuels that diverts land, water, and food resources.

Although the value of these resources is ensuring food is plentiful and low-priced, the RFS diktats are arbitrarily diverting these resources to-

These forests, wetlands, and grasslands are important carbon sinks that naturally remove greenhouse gasses from the atmosphere ward transportation uses.

As every student in an introductory economics course is taught, when growth in the demand for a good exceed the growth in its supply, its price will rise. Such has been the case for food due to the RFS. For instance, 37 percent of the U.S. corn harvest and 13 percent of the total global corn harvest was diverted away from the food supply toward ethanol production in 2014.

This, in turn, raised

food prices on the least well-off globally.

Indeed, bolstered U.S. ethanol production raised corn prices by $11.6 billion for importing nations between 2006 and 2011.

Of that additional cost, $6.6 billion was shouldered by the developing world.

As ActionAid policy analyst Kelly Stone put it, “No-one should go hungry to fill our gas tanks.”

Rising corn prices don’t just make it harder for low-income people to feed themselves.

Such market distortions also create even greater incentives for farmers to plow up previously uncultivated land, worsening the life cycle greenhouse gas emissions problem.

By any measure, the RFS has failed to achieve its objectives.

Worse, by creating an artificial market for ethanol, the EPA’s policy is doing imposing economic harm without creating any good for the planet.

More importantly, market evolutions and innovations are creating a revolution in the natural gas market.

Natural gas generates far less greenhouse gas emissions than other fossil fuels, including ethanol.

America’s increased use of natural gas is a chief reason why U.S. energy-related greenhouse gas emissions hit a 20-year low in 2012.

The only reasonable reform to the RFS is a full repeal that wipes the policy off the books.

The continuation of biofuel mandates, at any level, will harm consumers, the environment, and the world’s least well-off.

Del Mar’s climate action plan now available

By Bianca Kaplanek

DEL MAR — A draft of Del Mar’s climate action plan, which is scheduled for possible adoption at the Jan. 19 meeting, has been posted on the city website.

A CAP, as it is known, is a tool for quantifying greenhouse gas emissions from different sources. It sets targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 and 2035, identifies strategies to meet those targets and formulates an implementation process.

Del Mar’s plan has been in development for about two years in response to a 2006 state law that requires greenhouse gas emissions to be reduced to 1990 levels by 2020.

With grant money from the San Diego Association of Governments, a greenhouse gas inventory was completed for Del Mar in March 2011 based on data from 2005. An energy roadmap for city operations was created in 2013.

Since early 2014 the Sustainability Advisory Board has updated the greenhouse gas inventory based on data from 2012 and 2013.

Efforts by the group also include indentifying proposed mitigation measures and strategies — and estimated greenhouse gas reduction quantities for each measure — determining recommended reduction targets for 2020 and 2035 and preparing an implementation plan.

Community input to help develop the plan was garnered through a public workshop in September.

The draft, which was presented to council at its Dec. 7 meeting, is considered a “high-level” policy plan that doesn’t set any new laws, nor is it being written as part of the Del Mar Community Plan or pursued as mitigation for a particular project.

The current goal is to formally establish greenhouse gas reduction targets for 2020 and 2035 and strategies for achieving those targets.

T he C oast News

Once the CAP is adopted work will begin to implement the individual projects and policies identified.

The plan proposes a 15 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 and a 50 percent reduction by 2035. Measures for achieving those targets fall into four categories: energy and buildings, water and waste, transportation and urban tree planting.

Recommended strategies include an increased use of renewable energy sources, such as community choice aggregation, and modifying the planning and building application process for the installation of photovoltaic panels and energy efficiency retrofits.

Other suggestions include developing a zero-waste program/policy; implementing a “complete streets” approach in designing modifications to arterial roads to make them more pedestrian and bike friendly; exploring the installation of roundabouts; and possible implementation of an urban tree planting program.

There are 22 recommended goals and 49 measures identified as part of the implementation plan.

All recommendations may not come to fruition.

Each item will be evaluated, vetted by the appropriate city advisory committee and brought to City Council for consideration.

The proposed plan also discusses ways the city can adapt to the effects of climate change already occurring or anticipated to occur, such as sea level rise and water supply shortages.

Encinitas, Vista, Chula Vista and Escondido have already adopted a CAP. Solana Beach is currently developing one.

Initial reaction to Del Mar’s proposed CAP was positive, with Councilman Dwight Worden calling it “aspirational and directive.”

“I fully support this plan,” Councilman Don Mosier added.

RSF residents gift $1 million to institute

By Christina Macone-Greene

REGION — The La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology (LJI) recently received a generous $1 million gift from Rancho Santa Fe residents John and Susan Major. According to LJI, John Major serves as the current chairman of LJI’s Board of Directors.

This gift will help support the strides in precision medicine and immunotherapy.

“La Jolla Institute is a world-class organization that’s on the right track to create a world without disease. It deserves all the energy and support we can provide,” John said.

Dr. Stephen Wilson, executive vice president and chief operating officer of LJI, indicated that their institute is currently ranked among the world’s top five immunology research centers. This calculation was determined by their scientific impact.

“The gift from the Majors is intended to help in both areas: first, to help recruit a new faculty member in Computational Biology, a field that is critical to ‘personalized medicine,’ and second, to enhance the Institute’s endowment base.”

LJI opened its nonprofit 501(c)(3) doors more than 25 years ago.

Wilson said that LJI has solely dedicated itself to studying the immune system because they believe that no other biomedical discipline has greater implications for human health than immunology.

CERT volunteers sought; orientation set for Jan. 4

By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Emergency preparedness is a priority for the city.

To support police, fire crews and city departments during emergency is a critical step in logistics for emergency responders.

As a result, the city will hold its Community Emergency Response Team training orientation at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 4 at the city’s Safety Training Center.

Spearheaded by Emergency Preparedness Coordinator David Harrison, the orientation will select 25 volunteers to undergo eight sessions over eight weeks in various aspects of emergency response.

Individuals must be Carlsbad residents, 18 or older, and training runs from Jan. 25 through April 4 at the center. Class begins at 6:30 p.m.

“CERT gets involved in supporting community and public outreach throughout the year,” Harrison said.

This year’s class is the eighth since the program began eight years ago.

Harrison said the city has trained 200 people to date, with at least 75 who continue to respond to emergencies such as the 2014 Poinsettia Fire.

Harrison said the program uses curriculum from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), with additional aspects tailored to Carlsbad’s environment.

Training includes personal fire safety, basic first aid, search and rescue and general emergency preparedness. Some volunteers are exposed to disaster psychology techniques to assist individuals affected by an emergency situation.

“CERT members during the May fire, really provided a very, very novel capability, which gained some notoriety,” Harrison said.

Volunteers, meanwhile, are called into action when needed to provide operational and coordination efforts. Harrison said volunteers have been active to assist with supporting wildfires.

Although the volunteers assist with city matters, Harrison another component is to provide knowledge to their friends and neighbors.

As for the current crop of CERT members, Harrison said updates were provided during a November meeting in preparations for El Nino and possible winter storms.

“We stressed El Nino preparedness,” Harrison added. “We focused on a couple points. The first point being individual and family preparedness. It’s a long list of things.”

CERT volunteers provide emergency prepared-

ness and response assistance to their neighbors and community.

Volunteers receive 24 hours of free training including fire safety, disaster medical operations and light search and rescue.

“We try to train and retain,” Harrison added.

“We like to remain engaged through public outreach.”

Interested volunteers must apply online at volunteerincarlsbad.net or call (760) 434-2929 before the CERT orientation at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 4.

The orientation will be held at the city’s Safety Training Center, 5750 Orion St.

RSF Senior Center looking forward to the New Year Tri-City

By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — With each passing year, the Rancho Santa Fe Senior Center has afforded people and their families a destination of genuine care and compassion. And punctuating this care are the excellent senior programs and services they offer throughout the year.

As the chapter of 2015 has come to a close, the RSF Senior Center will continue to enhance the services individuals have come to enjoy and rely on in 2016.

“Our mission is to assist seniors in maintaining their health, welfare and safety while respecting their need for independence, self-esteem and dignity,” said Terrie Lintwin, the executive director at RSF Senior Center.

Lintwin said this is their mission statement that they use as a framework when planning their programs and classes.

According to Lintwin, the senior center spends the year doing things that support health issues, including an array of wellness topics.

“We have programs that stimulate creativity like our writers’ workshop and our

music class to keep people learning and growing,” she said, noting how these classes also encourage socialization and friendship.

While all of their classes have this dynamic, she said, they also host events that draw a larger crowd such as their July 4 luncheon.

Assistant director at the RSF Senior Center, Cheryl Ford, said how she also enjoys the other levels of service they provide.

“Something that I feel really proud of with the organization is the resource and referral program. People can call us if they have any questions about service providers or any questions about navigating through some of the challenges associated with what comes along with aging,” Ford said.

“Terrie and I are happy to meet with people one on one or over the phone.”

The feedback from this program has been an immense welcome to seniors and their families because of the direction and assistance it affords.

“We’re really proud of being able to support people that way,” Ford said.

Lintwin also pointed out how they are able to help

family members who may be living long distance while their senior loved ones remain in the Ranch.

Even with the miles in between, the RSF Senior Center works hard to address and be a link to those aging needs.

For Lintwin, her job means a great deal to her.

“It’s an opportunity to use the skills and knowledge that I’ve gained over all these years to help people and to really feel like we’re able to make a difference in the lives of our seniors,” she said.

Ford agreed with Lintwin with this feeling on a personal level.

“I really love the connection with people and being able to work and come alongside them when they are going through some challenges,” Ford said. “Just providing that one-on-one kindness, support and compassion is special.”

RANCHO SANTA FE — A recent Rancho Santa Fe School District meeting uncovered the need for necessary gymnasium roof repairs.

Superintendent Lindy Delaney required approval and authorization to start the bidding process and she received it.

According to Delaney, the beams appeared to have rotted out which affected the eaves. Parts of the repair areas were the eaves hanging over the lockers, she said.

“We got preliminary estimates, and they range from about $30,000 to $75,000 in terms of what they need to do,” she said, noting how $40,000 was the district’s bare minimum that they wanted to spend.

The reason for doing the least amount of repairs

with safety in mind was because the district may be building a new gym or renovating the existing one in the near future.

In the R. Roger Rowe School’s Master Plan, which was recently approved and drafted by Webb Cleff Architecture and Engineering, the gym underwent a facility needs assessment and was referred to as support spaces. It defined the gym as the oldest building on the school campus.

While it is the oldest building, the plan also indicated how it’s the most used during the year and in the summer school months.

The plan also indicated that the gymnasium is undersized. Activities such as wrestling and dance should have its own designated areas.

Additionally, the gym is also in need of signifi-

cant repairs.

The plan states, “In addition to the repair requirements, the facility provides limited opportunity for accessible accommodations.

Structurally, the building cannot support the addition of an elevator, and the toilet rooms are such that they cannot be modernized in their current location.”

The Master Plan recommended either modernizing the existing facility or replacing it.

Keeping this full assessment in mind, Delaney said the current repairs she wanted to focus on were just the rotted beams and eaves.

“I’m not looking to do anything I don’t have to,” she said, adding how the forecast is expecting heavy rains.

Delaney explained that because the roof repair project is over $18,000 the district had to initiate a bid. She went on to say that the project wasn’t for cosmetics, but structural.

With the beams rotted out, they need to be removed and replaced.

“We may need to spend some money just to make sure it’s safe,” she said.

ment were not as happy because sometimes the repair costs offset any savings.

Delaney went on to say that it personally didn’t bother her not to purchase the solar panels and equipment so that the district could keep their money in the bank and still have a utility savings.

Tentatively, the district did have a power purchase agreement, Delaney said.

She also shared that she has consulted with Debi Vaughan-Cleff of Webb-Cleff Architecture and Engineering.

“The only other consideration Debi and I have discussed, and I want to discuss a little further, is do we want to put it [solar panels] on the roof?” Delaney asked the board.

Delaney explained that while the solar company is responsible for the installation and any damages, the roof tiles were older dating back to 1991.

Other possibilities were also waiting on the solar panels until the district built a new gym or renovated the existing one.

Delaney proposed that she would like to bring the solar panel topic back to the board of trustees in January as a recommendation on how to proceed based on any new information she and her team gathered.

Delaney said her focus was threefold: a power purchase agreement with Panasonic who owns the solar equipment, to reTURN TO SOLAR ON A15

RANCHO SANTA FE — With the surge of electrical utility costs, the Rancho Santa Fe School District has considered solar power. With the guidance of the District’s attorneys, such as Richard Currier, Delaney told the board of trustees that a power purchase agreement may be the better option.

A power purchase agreement is comparable to a solar leasing agreement for a residential property, she explained.

Currently, the district is researching the solar company, Panasonic.

“We could rent from them at a cheaper rate,” she said.

Delaney also noted how some recent documentation she received uncovered how leasing could also potentially save the school district money.

Delaney said the advantages of a power purchase agreement are that the company owns the solar panels and are responsible for any repairs and equipment. In their preliminary research, Delaney said that some school districts which have pur-

REGION — Tri-City Medical Center healthcare workers filed a ballot initiative on Dec. 17 to limit the public healthcare district’s administrator pay to $250,000 a year. The initiative also calls for annual publication of the hospital’s top administrators’ salaries.

The next steps will be to collect signatures from Carlsbad, Oceanside and Vista voters to put the initiative on the November ballot.

“The goal is 14,000 signatures in 180 days,” Sean Wherley, media relations for SEIU-United Healthcare Workers West, said.

“We want to be sure we have enough to qualify.”

Wherley said he is confident needed signatures will be collected. A survey of 500 area voters showed 83 percent support for an initiative to cap top hospital salaries.

“The public is very concerned about excessive salaries,” Wherley said.

“It’s the public’s charge to hold them accountable for the best patient care, keeping prices in check.”

Last November TriCity workers rallied outside a hospital fundraiser dinner at Aviara Resort in Carlsbad to alert the public to administrators’ high salaries and possible outsourcing of workers.

They also sponsored a $4,000 table at the fundraiser dinner to have the opportunity to talk one-onone with hospital donors about their concerns.

At that time David Bennett, Tri-City chief marketing officer, said outsourcing jobs is not going to happen, and salaries are kept at competitive rates “executive or not.”

Workers continue to be concerned about hospital high salaries and possible outsourcing.

Most say money would be better spent on patient care and equitable compensation for all employees.

“It’s long overdue for Tri-City Medical Center to be accountable to taxpayers,” Charles Harris, TriCity transportation driver, said. “For years the top executives at this hospital have given themselves bloated salaries and benefits well beyond what’s reasonable.”

Wherley said Tri-City would still attract top administrators if salaries were reduced.

The union looked into 2013 public records and found Tri-City CEO Tim Moran received (at that time) $456,000 annually, the seventh highest administrator pay of the 37 California public healthcare districts. Other CEO salaries ranged from $84,000

SFID customers miss water target use again

By Christina Macone-Greene

REGION — For another consecutive month, Santa Fe Irrigation District customers were unable to meet the state mandated 36 percent water cut. According the water district, calculations for November 2015 revealed a 13 percent reduction in water usage.

“It is critical that customers redouble outdoor and indoor conservation efforts,” said Jessica Parks, Public Information Officer at SFID. Parks also added that the region of San Diego County reduced their November water usage by 15 percent. Parks remained hopeful that the December rains would help customers reach their target.

Parks also gave the reminder to turn off all irrigation during any rainfall and keep it off for 48 hours or longer.

“We are reminding our

customers that the best way to stay within the state limits and their allocation is to reduce landscape watering and allowing portions of

Carlsbad doles out $50,000 in grants for the arts

By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — The city recently awarded $50,000 to local schools and nonprofit organizations through its Community Arts Grants program.

The Carlsbad Arts Commission approved the 21 representatives during its Dec. 10 meeting.

The grants program is in its 30th year and provides cultural opportunities for the city’s residents and strengthens local arts organizations through matching grants.

Eight schools covering nine programs received $1,200, while the Jonathan Tarr Foundation was awarded

$1,000. The Carlsbad Educational Foundation received $1,500, the Intrepid Theatre Company $2,000, artist Bryan Snyder supported by the Boys and Girls Club was awarded $2,100 as was the Encinitas Educational Foundation.

In addition, the Patrons of the Arts Found received $3,000, the Carlsbad-Oceanside Art League and La Costa Dreams/La Costa Film Festival and Mainly Mozart each received $3,500.

The Museum of Making Music was awarded $4,000 followed by $5,000 to New Village Arts Theatre and $8,000 for the Carlsbad Music Festival.

water.”

Even with the expected El Niño season, Parks said that to date, the state has given no indication of removing the mandated cutbacks. The district is still under the directive of a 36 percent water reduction for the months ahead.

“As of now, with the state mandates in place, we are not looking to change any of our targets or water conservation efforts,” Parks said.

Conservation will continue in the New Year.

In 2016, Parks invites those who have not taken part in their free residential water survey to do so.

“If customers are looking for a long-term water reduction solution, these cooler months are an ideal time to replace water-hogging landscapes. When af-

fordable, installing a water conserving landscape can save water and be very beautiful,” she said, adding how sustainable landscaping may also boost property values in the long run.

While outdoor concentration energies are in place, these energies are equally as important indoors. Parks noted how customers are encouraged to take short, five minute showers; run only full loads of laundry and dishes in the dishwasher; and, fix all leaks.

With these indoor and outdoor measures in place, the district’s goal of a 36 percent water use reduction can be in reach.

Parks wants customers to know that they can receive more information pertaining to water saving ideas at saveourwater.com.

Carlsbad offers free curbside pickup, drop off bins for trees

By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — The city of Carlsbad is offering free curbside pickup and drop-off bin locations for Christmas trees through Jan. 9.

The trees will be recycled and converted into mulch to be used throughout San Diego County.

Curbside tree pick up will take place on residents’ normally scheduled collection days.

Drop off locations in Carlsbad include Calavera Hills Community Park, 2997 Glasgow Dr., Stagecoach Community Park, 3420 Camino de los Coches, Poinsettia Community Park, 6600 Hidden Valley Rd., and Fire Station 1, 1275 Carlsbad Village Dr. For the week of Dec. 28, collection will be delayed one day for customers normally serviced on Friday.

When placing trees for curbside collection, follow these guidelines: • Remove all decorations, including tinsel, lights, ornaments and tree stands.

• Trees taller than six feet must be cut in half and placed next to your green

waste cart.

• When possible, residents are asked to cut down the tree so that it fits inside the green waste cart, with the lid closed for collection.

• Please note that flocked trees cannot be recycled and must be disposed of through regular trash service. Flocked trees must fit into the trash cart, with the lid closed for collection.

For the creative recycler, other ideas for repurposing a tree include: • Bird feeders: Place the Christmas tree in the garden or backyard and use it as a bird feeder and sanctuary. Fresh orange slices or strung popcorn will attract the birds and they can sit in the branches for shelter.

• Mulch: A Christmas tree is biodegradable; its branches can be removed, chipped, and used as mulch in the garden.

• Living, rooted trees: Of course, you can get a rooted tree and then plant it in your yard after Christmas.

There’s a new method to Tommy Castro’s madness

By Alan Sculley

People who see Tommy Castro and the Painkillers on his fall tour, but have yet to hear his new album, “Method To My Madness,” will get a good idea of what to expect from the new release by the time the show is over.

First of all, guitarist/ singer Castro plans to play upwards of eight or nine of the new songs at each show.

Beyond that, the songs from “Method To My Madness” figure to sound a lot like the album versions because of how Castro approached the making of the album.

First of all, he used the Painkillers — bassist Randy McDonald, drummer Bowen Brown and keyboardist Mike Emerson — on the album and he also recorded “Method To My Madness” almost as if it was a live recording.

“It’s cool playing the new songs with the band that recorded it,” Castro said. “And the way we recorded it was very live. That was my concept for this record, having an album that was really organic and kind of live, a real band playing songs without a lot of — the same thing we do with the live show — without all the help that you can get from recording it in the studio.”

The studio was very much a tool in the making of Castro’s previous album, the 2014 release “The Devil You Know.”

“It was not so much about wanting the band to sound live,” Castro said of his previous album. “It was about what would make this song really happen, whatever we need. So if we had a guitar with effects, something maybe in the mixing where we could add a certain kind of compression or we work with the low end, Tommy Castro and the Painkillers will perform Jan. 9 at the Belly Up in Solana Beach.

we’d do something to enhance the sort of vibe we were going for on that particular song.”

Castro liked the way “The Devil You Know” turned out. But he didn’t want his next album to be “The Devil You Know Part 2.”

The idea of chasing a live-in-the-studio type of sound started to come into focus when Castro did some shows with fellow bluesman Tab Benoit.

“I’m a huge Tab fan.

We’ve been friends and we’ve known each other for a long time,” Castro said.

“I love his sound. I love his voice. I like the way he plays guitar and I like the way he kicks so much ass with three guys, two guys in his band plus him. And it’s very raw and very real and very live.

His concept about recording is to go in and just be this is what (it is). He does it that way all the time. So we had a few talks about that when I was on his bus traveling with him.

And I thought well, this is exactly what I need to do because it’s the opposite of what I did with ‘The Devil You Know.’ It will make a different sounding record.”

While “Method To My Madness” is more raw and live, it shares a common trait with “The Devil You Know.” Both albums accent more of Castro’s rock influences than his earlier albums.

The leaner, rocking sound is a product of Castro’s decision in 2012 to pare back his band, dropping the horns he had been featuring since about 2005 and going with a drums, bass, keyboards and guitar format.

“I loved that sound, that full sound, and hav-

ing a horn section and keyboards,” Castro said. “I reveled in it for awhile. Just literally that band was kind of the band I always wanted, really. I always wanted to have all of that stuff. I’m a soul guy, I’m a traditional blues guy, and I just loved that for a long time. But then the time came, like, ‘OK, I’m really getting a little bit tired of this wall of sound on every song.’”

The more guitar-centered, more rocking sound works on “Method To My Madness” because the songwriting is also strong.

The album starts on an especially impressive note with the grooving R&Blaced rock of “Common Ground” (a call to set aside the divisiveness of today’s politics and see what unites people of varying beliefs), and the stinging shuffle of “Shine A Light.” There’s a little Creedence Clearwater Revival and Cajun rhythm to the frisky and catchy “Got A Lot,” while “Ride” is a slinky — even spooky — bit of late-night blues-rock.

Castro is proud of “Method To My Madness,” but makes no promises about what sort of sound he’ll pursue the next time he’s in the studio.

“I’ve really enjoyed this phase of the band,” Castro said. “I don’t know what we’ll do next, but I’m having a great time doing the music the way we’re doing it now. I’m enjoying all of these new songs. The only problem is that I would like to do all of the songs off of this new album. I like them all. But it wouldn’t leave much room for my past catalog and I know I’ll get some unhappy customers. So anyway, we’re doing about eight out of 12 songs, maybe nine.”

Palomar College honors benefactors Escondido teen book club meets Jan. 16 SAN MARCOS — The Palomar College Arboretum will soon bear the names of two longtime Palomar College benefactors and well-known business owners, the late Edwin and Frances Hunter, founders of Hunter Industries in San Marcos.

The name change was announced at the college’s December Governing Board meeting along with news of the establishment of a $500,000 endowment from Hunter Industries and the Hunter Family Advised Fund-Rancho Santa Fe Community Foundation to the Palomar College Foundation. Hunter Industries offered $50,000 over a fiveyear period and the Hunter Family offered $450,000 over a five-year period — beginning in December 2015.

The children of Edwin and Frances — Ann Hunter-Welborn and Dick Hunter — have been working with Foundation Executive Director Rich Talmo since June of this year on plans for the endowment and the naming of the arboretum.

“The Hunter Family has been a pillar of support to our entire community.

annual maintenance funds available for the Arboretum.

“Palomar College is such a vital asset to our community, and having walked through the arboretum, it’s clear this wonderful garden is important to students and is a value to the community. Green spaces are crucial to the future of our world.” said

Ann Hunter-Welborn.

Improvements to the Arboretum are part of Palomar’s Educational Master Plan 2022, funded in part

by Proposition M monies, approved by voters in November 2006.

The Hunter Family has requested that the planned Arboretum renovation be completed as soon as possible.

ESCONDIDO — The Escondido Public Library’s Burritos and Book Club for teens, ages 13-18, meets Jan. 16, according to a press release from the city.

The club will meet in the Turrentine Room from noon to 1:30 p.m. to discuss “The Kiss of Deception,”

by Mary E. Pearson. Copies of “The Kiss of Deception” are currently available for checkout at the library’s information desk or can be reserved using the library’s online catalog at library.escondido.org.

“The Kiss of Deception” is the first book in a fantasy series about Princess Lia, First Daughter of the House of Morrighan.

Strong and determined, Lia flees on the morning of her marriage, which is no more than a political alliance to a prince she has never met.

As she settles into her new life, she becomes intrigued when two male strangers arrive in the village she now calls home.

What Lia does not know, is that one of them is the prince that she jilted and the other is an assassin sent by her own father. As she becomes involved with

both gentlemen, Lia also tries to determine what mysteries are hidden within the ancient documents she stole from the Chancellor’s secret collection. These documents take Lia on a quest; a journey where she uncovers deception upon deception and unlocks perilous secrets that could lead to the unraveling of her world.

In addition to discussing “The Kiss of Deception,” teens can share their opinions and ideas about other books they have enjoyed and propose titles for the next Burritos and Book Club meeting.

The selected book will be discussed at the next meeting March 12. Complimentary burritos will be provided, and all participants receive a free book or audiobook at the end of the program.

The Escondido Public Library is at 239 South Kalmia Street. For more information about teen programs, contact Teen Librarian Cathy Janovitz at (760) 839-4283 or cjanovitz@escondido.org. Additional information about the library can be found at library.escondido.org.

County libraries partner with homelessness task force REGION — San Diego County Library is entering into a new partnership with the Regional Task Force on the Homeless.

The Task Force conducts an annual count of citizens living in San Diego County who are experiencing homelessness.

Ten library branches will host volunteers who count or survey members of the community between Jan. 29 and Feb. 4.

The 10 participating library branches are: Casa de Oro, El Cajon, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, Poway, San Marcos, Imperial Beach, Encinitas, Vista and

Fallbrook.

Last year, with the help of 1,200 volunteers, they counted over 8,700 homeless individuals in the county.

“Part of the library’s mission is to promote safe communities,” said Library Director José Aponte. “We are proud to assist this task force to reach better understanding of San Diego’s homelessness situation so that we can improve community services for all our residents.”

For more information, contact your local participating library.

Contact numbers for all San Diego County Library branches are online at sdcl.org.

Authorities seek leads in animal abuse case REGION — Melody, a 4-year-old Spaniel, was brought to San Diego Humane Society on Dec. 22 with severe lacerations around her neck, which appear to be caused from tightly bound chicken wire that caused deep cuts in her neck.

From the investigation

by San Diego Humane Society’s Humane Law Enforcement department, Humane Officers believe this act was intentional cruelty.

This incredibly painful infliction constitutes animal abuse in the state of California and authorities are hoping community tips will lead to an arrest.

“The way the chicken wire was tied indicates that this was an intentional act.

The injuries she has suffered cut into her flesh all the way to the bone. She’s very lucky to be alive,” said Steve MacKinnon, chief of Humane Law Enforcement for San Diego Humane Society.

MacKinnon explained that Melody was found abandoned at a plant nursery located on N. River Road in Oceanside.

“We’ve opened an investigation to find the person(s) responsible for her injuries, but we, unfortunately, have very little information about what happened,” said MacKinnon.

“We’re asking the community to please report any information or possible leads

Melody, a 4-year-old Spaniel, is now at the San Diego Humane Society. She was found abandoned at a plant nursery in Oceanside with tightly bound chicken wire wrapped around her neck. Authorities have opened an investigation. Photo courtesy San Diego Humane Society

so we can find the person responsible, or Melody’s previous owners.”

San Diego Humane Society veterinarians performed immediate reconstructive surgery on Melody to repair her injuries and have given a positive prognosis for her survival and rehabilitation. The Humane Law Enforcement division of San Diego Humane Society has opened an animal cruelty investigation with the hopes of

pursuing felony charges.

Dr. Gary Weitzman, president and CEO of San Diego Humane Society says, “What happened to Melody is horrific and, unfortunately, we see animal cruelty like this all too often. We rely on information from the community to be able to seek justice for these animals who are unable to defend themselves.

Fighting animal cruelty is one of our primary missions so we can give animals like

Melody the second chance they deserve.”

Crime Stoppers is offering a reward of up to $1,000 for any information that leads to an arrest.

Leads can be reported through an anonymous tip line by calling (888) 5808477 or online at sdcrimestoppers.com.

Information can also be reported to the San Diego Humane Society at sdhumane.org or by calling (619) 243-3466.

A friendship developed over time, Kodachrome and Pho

By Stuart Grauer

Special to The Coast News

B

ack in the ‘90s we used film for all our photos and it took a lot of work to develop the film.

It had to be done right.

Near our school on Encinitas Boulevard there was a shop called “One Hour Photo” that was owned by a Vietnamese fellow called Tam, and that was our go-to place.

Tam developed our school photos with the greatest of care and, as a result, I grew in friendship with him.

You might think that photo development and friendship would not be related well, but to me, when someone is great at what they do, it becomes friendship. To me, great workmanship means, “I care about you” and “You can depend upon me.”

Over time I learned a lot about this unlikely friend, a Vietnamese refugee from the postwar days with hair touching his shoulders just like we all had in college back in the day.

Had just a slight few things been different in each of our lives, Tam and I could have literally been hunting each other down with automatic rifles or napalm bombs in the jungles of Vietnam.

Of course, that didn’t happen, and instead of opposing lives, we ended up with parallel ones.

I don’t know how Tam

got out of Vietnam, but I got out by drawing a lucky number in the draft lottery back in ‘69.

As it happened, Tam had a daughter just the age of my own, and so every time I dropped off film rolls or picked up my gorgeously developed Kodachrome, I could swap fathering stories with my friend.

As a photography shop owner, Tam wasn’t going to get rich or famous, but I doubt that motivates most of the best talents — Tam was motivated by digging into his craft, appreciating his product, and respecting his clients.

Tam thought hard work was a good thing and I don’t think our connection was based on a whole lot more than that one core value.

With Tam, we documented a full generation of students coming of age.

Then the digital age came sweeping across all of the arts, and photo development was the first to go.

Tam tried to hold on and I did too, and I even bought my first SLR digital camera from Tam, knowing I could have got it cheaper at the Price Club.

But there was no stopping digital technology any more than 9/11 and, one day, driving through the shopping mall the One Hour Photo sign was gone and so was Tam. The world’s last roll of Kodachrome would be processed on Jan. 18, 2011.

I went home feeling loss and my family felt that way too, and we worried about how this middle-aged man could land on his feet now that his business had vanished. Was this a tragic life?

What could we do?

If you’ve seen archival or early-era photos of The Grauer School, you’ve seen Tam’s handiwork.

The photos were rich and colorful and deep, and even aromatic — try that digitally — and we’ve run a lot of them through the scanner.

All this handiwork and everything Tam did for our school is supposedly much cheaper and better to do today with Photoshop — and yet Photoshop was $1,849 bucks last time I checked.

I’m not so sure things got better because of the digital age and its pixels and bytes.

Seven years went by and one morning we went out to the old Santa Fe Café for a classic old-time breakfast such as they served up: hash browns, pancakes, huevos rancheros — straight up Americana.

In fact, the last time I went there it was to take a Taiwanese houseguest, so I could show him a typical Encinitas breakfast shack.

Anyway, on this morning, the doors were locked and a sign was posted on them saying, “Coming Soon, Pho Ever Vietnamese Restaurant.”

Out front, a late-middle aged old-time Californian,

stocky, sandy haired, and tanned, stood studying the sign, just staring at it like he was lost. Santa Fe Café had been there forever, and now it was gone.

I got out and studied the sign with him for a minute in silence and at last could only say, “Get ready.”

America is always changing and we’re not always ready. I got in the car and said to Sally, “No way am I going to a new restaurant there.

The Santa Fe Café was a classic.” Did we really need Vietnamese noodle soup?

It was the closest breakfast place to the school, too. That was last winter.

Then recently around lunchtime we were cruising around that area and on a whim we said, “Well, shall we check out the pho?”

We walked in and the placed looked pretty busy, and there behind the counter doing two things at once was an unmistakable, slight man with dark, leathery skin and hair down to his shoulders.

“Tam!” I almost screamed.

“Dr. Stuart!” he returned, and put down a huge stack of dishes and came over grinning and gave me a hug.

“I was worried about you,” I said, “You were suddenly gone.”

He explained he had started up a pho place six years ago a few towns away in Vista and it was so successful that now he could open another branch right here. “You can email photos,

but you can’t email food!” he said. We caught up on our daughters and he ran back to the kitchen and brought his wife out, happy.

It’s a good country we live in. There are no more photo shops, but I have no doubt that before too long Tam will have three pho shops.

Some people complain that they are put out of work, displaced by technology, or replaced by someone younger or more foreign, or put down by people who make the money we want for ourselves, but some oth-

er people — the ones that work hard, and really care, and are craftsmen and real teachers — always seem to land on their feet.

Tam’s pho was rich and aromatic, deep and colorful, like Kodachrome.

Attention all animal lovers with talent: We want you!

By Lynn Moon

Join the Art for Barks parade of artists, authors and veterinarians who lend their talents to improve the quality of life for family pets. Recently, Art for Barks has partnered with San Diego Humane Society in a new program, “Art to the Rescue,” to assist in the adoption of more animals.

Previously, Art for Barks created the nation’s first collection of Service Dog Fine Art inspiring people to understand the profound contributions they make in improving the life of humans.

The Art for Barks website includes dogs, cats, horses and wildlife in its celebration of animal art.

Today, we will tell you a story why dog art has been popular for so many centuries.

The earliest dog art images appeared about 6,000 years ago. Humans identified with dogs because they display a similar range of emotions. Yet, it is the “unconditional love and loyalty” dog’s display that make them man’s best friend and a favorite subject of art.

In early art the dog took on spiritual qualities, such as a deity, a guardian of the deceased soul by the Egyptians and an ancestor of man in Native American people and in Central Asia.

Genghis Khan traced his heritage back to the union of a grey wolf and a white doe and named his four greatest generals the “Dogs of War.” In Roman mythology, Romulus and Remus, the

founders of Rome were nursed by a she-wolf. The Greeks and Romans created the constellations after the great dog “Canis Major” and the little dog “Canis Minor.” Early Greek and Roman Art shows dog images clearly related to modern breeds, such as the Greyhound and Mastiff.

In the Middle Ages, sleek Greyhounds were symbols of prestige and the Mastiff became a war dog and guardian of livestock.

Little dogs were guardians of the Buddhist faith and deemed symbols of good luck throughout Asia.

In Christianity, the dog became a symbol of faith. In Europe between the fifth and 14th centuries, hunting dogs were extremely popular in art as a prized family possession.

During the Renaissance, working dogs became the favorite art subject: pulling carts, herding animals, guarding property and competing in sporting events. Edwin Landseer’s (1802 – 1873) painting of a dog with a flowing red cape rescuing a traveler from the water was an early, popular depiction of a service dog.

In the 18th century the individual dog portrait became a popular genre for the wealthy.

Today, talented Art for Barks artists will paint a portrait of your family dog for an affordable price.

By the 20th century, a distinct change occurred in the depiction of the dog in art. New styles evolved as artists strove for individuality and a depiction of new concepts. Lincoln Seligman’s “Art Lover” (2010) humorously displays a black Lab appreciating Pop art symbols created by Andy Warhol (1928-1987).

From ancient times to the modern era, the visual representation of man’s most loyal friend remains popular.

area to conduct the counts.

Teams are comprised of anywhere from two to 20 volunteers, among them are some of the best ornithologists in the county.

Mauro said everyone is welcome to participate, regardless of experience.

Volunteers are placed on the team where they will have the most rewarding experience.

“It’s an excited, happy crowd of people,” Mauro said.

Volunteer Tom Troy has helped as a team leader in the annual bird count for 10 years. He said it’s a great way to introduce people to the beauty of nature, and ongoing conservation efforts.

“Birds are remarkable, beautiful, captivating and fascinating,” Troy said.

Volunteers are emailed information, a map, and birding tips ahead of time.

He said those individuals might stay at the new center for several weeks or months, depending on the need of care.

beginners, and the group sets off with checklists, binoculars and identification books in hand.

Volunteer Dovie Christensen is part of the beginner group.

She said she has taken on birding as a hobby, and enjoys learning something new about birds each time she goes out.

During the count volunteers record the type of species and number of birds they see. If a rare species is spotted, an official reporting form is filled out. Last Sunday there were a few unique sightings.

“Several species were seen for the first time,” Mauro said. “A blue headed vireo, magnolia warbler, and four different species of orioles which is unusual in the wintertime.”

At the end of the day all of the volunteers gathered at the nature center to eat home-cooked chili prepared by the center’s director, and help compile a preliminary species count.

The ritual is called “the reading of the list.”

Mauro calls out the name of each of the 700-plus regional species, bird by bird. If a team spotted the named species they raise their hand and it’s noted on the day’s overall count.

This year, 196 species were seen, which is a high count.

Weather plays a part in how many birds come into view also.

“It was a really good count,” Troy said. “The wind was a little bit of a factor, but it was a picture perfect day.”

Mauro said he takes the next two days to go over volunteers’ tally sheets to add up the number of birds that were spotted within each species. The data is sent to the National Audubon Society and becomes part of the national database.

The Buena Vista Audubon Society was established in 1953. It began annual bird counts in 1956.

The nature center opened in 1988.

cated to 649 W. Mission Ave. The city of Escondido’s Planning Division consulted the county’s Department of General Services to find a suitable location for the new facility.

Studies determined the property vacated by HHSA would be suitable for the new building, according to a report submitted by San Diego County Chief Administrative Officer Helen Robbins-Meyer.

“Another need that has been identified is for longterm housing,” Roberts said.

He is referring to the board approving up to $10 million in September for

residential housing for mentally-ill people, which will also be located in Escondido.

The funds expand the Behavioral Health Services Permanent Supportive Housing Program, which has grown to 241 homes since its creation in 2008.

“The great needs we are seeing is veterans,” Roberts said. “People who PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and they need a place where they can stay in debt-free beds.

We are continuing to look throughout the county were there are options for longer term housing for veterans with PTSD.”

Grossmont Healthcare District in La Mesa as a “pretty good indicator of demand.”

Grossmont has 536 beds compared to Tri-City’s 397 beds, and pays its CEO less than half of what Tri-City does.

However, most Califor-

nia healthcare districts with 350 or more beds pay CEOs the top statewide salaries.

Voters can expect to see workers out collecting signatures in January.

Signatures must be turned in by June 14.

BAG BAN

bags, which are not biodegradable and often end up in storm drains and waterways, posing a threat to marine life.

According to a timeline created by the SAB, the ordinance will be introduced Feb. 6 and take effect in March.

But the group is recommending a phased approach that gives retail businesses six months to deplete existing inventory.

Restaurants and the farmers market would have until April 2017 to comply with the new law.

To encourage immediate compliance, Councilman Dwight Worden suggested buying existing inventory from stores and restaurants.

Because the goal is to encourage people to shop with reusable bags, stores can sell paper bags for 10 cents to recoup the increased cost of providing paper over plastic.

The sustainability group sought input from 22 local businesses and made a presentation to the Business Support Advisory Committee, which according to the Dec. 7 City Council staff report, “was generally accepting of the concept of a plastic bag ban for retail businesses, with modifications for special circumstances related

to restaurants” for hot liquid foods such as soup.

Compliance could be easier and faster in Del Mar because the city is not home to a grocery store.

Councilman Terry Sinnott said he would like to see more information about the cost of cleaning plastic bags off the beach.

SAB members at their meeting said accurate figures might not be available, adding that the ban should be based on doing the right thing and it should not be a cost-based decision.

San Diego is in the process of creating a similar ordinance, which if enacted would ban the bags at nearby shopping centers such as Flower Hill Promenade and Del Mar Highlands.

Such a move would likely discourage people from shopping outside of Del Mar, which would result in lost tax revenue, to avoid remembering to bring reusable bags or paying for paper.

Worden said he would like to work with officials at the Del Mar Fairgrounds to enact a similar ban there.

That state-owned facility lies within Del Mar’s city limits but it is governed by a different board of directors and would be exempt from the new law.

of the calculations by seeing the difference between what the long-term costs were of purchasing the solar system versus a power purchase agreement.

“I’m just interested in the numbers,” she said.

Delaney mentioned

that if they moved forward with solar construction, there would be an upcoming deadline.

With that said, Delaney reinforced that even with a deadline, she did not want to rush any decisions because it was a big one to make.

ily will further enhance LJI’s mission.

Wilson said that the landmark gift was instrumental in helping them recruit Dr. Ferhat Ay, an accomplished bioinformaticist.

“His recruitment is a critical step toward the Institute’s goal of increasing its scientific and technological capabilities to enable deeper insights into the significance of personal immune profiles and immune signatures,” Wilson said. He added, “Expanding the Institute’s expertise in genomics and bioinformatics — the two cornerstones of personalized medicine — will bring us closer to tailoring immunotherapies to each pa-

tient’s unique immunological profile.”

While John has been strongly involved in the fundraising endeavors of LJI, Wilson described Susan as being a tireless supporter and champion of their institute.

“Gaining a much more complete understanding of how the immune system works and how it can be manipulated to maintain good health will have a profound impact on the future of medicine,” Susan said. “We couldn’t be more pleased to support the efforts of LJI’s world-renowned scientists to tap into the immune system’s power to enhance human health in ways we once could only dream about.”

into broadcasting the movie on Del Mar TV. Anyone interested in seeing the documentary at home can stream it on Amazon or iTunes or watch it on Pivot TV. The city is also coordinating a reusable bag giveaway.

In early 2013 City Council asked the SAB to review a single-use plastic bag ban that was adopted a year earlier in neighboring Solana Beach.

At the time council members said reusable bags could possibly be promoted without legislation.

“One of the problems in this project has been that we don’t have a lot of entities that use plastic bags,” Councilman Don Mosier, a liaison to the advisory board, said at the time.

But following a presentation by the SAB at the Dec. 7, 2015, meeting, council directed staff to return with a draft ordinance.

Legislation approved in 2014 in California authorizing a statewide ban will be voted on in the November election.

About 150 municipalities in California have adopted more than 110 ordinances banning plastic

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of Encinitas has introduced Ordinance No. 2015-16 entitled, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Encinitas, California, adding Chapter 1.10 to the Encinitas Municipal Code to include provisions for a voluntary mediation program for land use and development projects.” The City Council introduced Ordinance 201516 at a meeting held on December 9, 2015. This ordinance adds Chapter 1.10 to the Municipal Code outlining a voluntary mediation program for land use and development projects where citizens and project applicants are able to mediate any remaining issues following the approval of a private development project. The mediation program would be voluntary and offer an opportunity for the parties to resolve outstanding differences prior to initiation of a formal City Council appeal process. Ordinance 201516 was introduced at the Regular City Council meeting held on December 9, 2015 by the following vote: AYES: Blakespear, Gaspar, Kranz, Muir, Shaffer; NAYS: None; ABSTAIN: None; ABSENT: None. The ordinance is on file in the office of the City Clerk, 505 South Vulcan Avenue and may be viewed between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. The City Council will consider the adoption of Ordinance No. 2015-16 at the January 13, 2016 Regular City Council meeting commencing at 6:00 P.M. in the City Council Chambers, 505 South Vulcan Avenue.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of Encinitas has introduced Ordinance No. 2015-19 entitled, “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ENCINITAS RE-AFFIRMING AND CONFIRMING THAT THE CULTIVATION OF MARIJUANA AND ANY RELATED USES IS PROHIBITED PURSUANT TO THE PERMISSIVE ZONING CODE ENACTED IN THE ENCINITAS MUNICIPAL CODE; AND, THEREFORE, THE STATE IS PROHIBITED FROM ISSUING A LICENSE FOR THE CULTIVATION OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA AND ANY RELATED USES IN THE CITY OF ENCINITAS”. The City Council introduced Ordinance 201519 at a meeting held on December 16, 2015. The Encinitas Municipal Code enacted a permissive zoning code which does not explicitly (or otherwise) list or authorize medical marijuana dispensaries and related uses as permitted uses; and, therefore, such dispensaries and uses are prohibited in the City. Nevertheless, in an abundance of caution, to maintain local control, the City Attorney (and League of California City Officials) recommends that such authority, prohibiting medical marijuana dispensaries and related uses, including cultivation, be formally re-affirmed and confirmed as listed in Ordinance 2015-19. Ordinance 2015-19 was introduced at the Regular City Council meeting held on December 16, 2015 by the following vote: AYES: Blakespear, Gaspar, Kranz, Shaffer; NAYS: None; ABSTAIN: None. ABSENT: Muir. The ordinance is on file in the office of the City Clerk, 505 South Vulcan Avenue and may be viewed between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M.

It is hereby given notice that Study Sessions will be held on over the next four months to discuss the Housing Element update work program. These sessions are not public hearings and no formal decisions will be made. The first Study Session will be held on Thursday, the 7th day of January, 2016, at 6 p.m.

CASE NUMBER: 14-200 POD APPLICANT: City of Encinitas LOCATION: Citywide PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The City has been working to update its Housing Element, called At Home in Encinitas, to develop an overall strategy that encourages the construction of new housing units to meet existing and future housing needs. After months of outreach, the City identified three different mapping strategies to support the location, variety, and availability of housing. Each of the strategies developed has a different focus and mix of sites to accommodate the community’s future housing needs.

To ensure that the community-supported solutions identified through the public input process are implemented, new draft zoning standards and design guidelines have been prepared that will apply to these new housing sites.

Zoning standards define the allowable uses and bulk or scale of development, while design guidelines address the appearance and quality of development. Both tools will promote compatibility with existing community character.

A series of meetings have been scheduled in early 2016 to cover certain issues in more detail before taking possible future discretionary action.

January 7, 2016 Results of the Community Dialogue Sessions events and Draft Design Guidelines February 4, 2016 CEQA 101 primer and Draft EIR discussion The study session format will provide the Commission with an opportunity to learn more about the project, hear from various residents and stakeholders, and to discuss preliminary issues.

San Diego shut out of Under Armour National Division Final

By Aaron Burgin

REGION — When the Under Armour Holiday Classic started on Dec. 26, San Diego basketball fans and experts felt that this might be the best chance for a local team to win the championship of the prestigious tournament’s top division.

Foothills Christian, St. Augustine, Army Navy and Torrey Pines comprised the largest local contingent in the top division since 2013, and the Knights, led by presumptive All American TJ Leaf, appeared to be the tournament favorite.

On Tuesday night, the

dreams of a San Diego final were dashed, as Foothills Christian and Army Navy both dropped their semifinal matchups- Army Navy lost a close battle with Los Angeles power Fairfax 4942, and Foothills Christian lost a lopsided game against a Corona Centennial team that they had beaten earlier this year and was missing one of its top players.

The Foothills Christian loss was particularly shocking because of the score: Corona Centennial beat the Knights 67-52.

St. Augustine was knocked out of the winner’s bracket in the second round

after being crushed by Foothills Christian, and Torrey Pines were edged 43-41 to the Fairfax team that then took out Army-Navy.

Foothills Christian will take on Army Navy in the third place game at 11:05 a.m. on Dec. 30.

In the tournament’s American Division, San Marcos High advanced to the semifinals, but were beaten by Los Alamitos.

The Knights, led by Fresno State University signee Johnny McWilliams, Jr., will take on Curtis, WA for third place.

La Costa Canyon, which hosted the tourna-

ment’s third division (Senators), will play in the third place game of that bracket against Long Beach Jordan.

Poway and La Jolla Country Day are the only local teams to make it to the championships of their respective divisions. Poway, which defeated Sonora High of La Habra in a runaway victory Tuesday night, faces Riverside Poly in the Governor’s Division final. La Jolla Country Day crushed Kearny to advance to the championship of the fifth and final bracket, the Mayor’s Division.

The Torreys will face Palm Springs High.

Weddle is the latest Bolts star to lose his shine sports talk jay paris

P

hilip Rivers steps to the makeshift podium and did it need to come to this?

“I’ve enjoyed my 14 seasons with the Chargers,’’ Rivers said. “I just can’t believe it is ending this way.’’

Immediately after Rivers’ impromptu press conference, the Los Angeles Chargers issued a terse statement: “We wish Mr. Rivers much success in his future endeavors.”

No, we didn’t get our calendar confused. It is closer to New Year’s Day than April Fool’s.

But you’re a dunce if not seeing what’s on the horizon for the Chargers’ celebrated quarterback.

The team’s last possible week of being the San Diego Chargers includes a helping of nonsense. The Chargers again shown why, at times, they’re tougher to root for than the IRS. The black cloud, lump of coal, and snakebites that shadow the Chargers is on display with Eric Weddle.

The Chargers and Weddle have been fussin’ and fightin’ since the offseason.

Weddle, an All-Pro safety, saw his contract expiring and wanted to renegotiate.

The Chargers spotted Weddle’s wear-and-tear from being the ultimate team player in terms of defensive and special-teams snaps, and declined to break bread.

So Weddle blasted the Chargers.

The Chargers acted like they couldn’t be bothered.

The latest chapter of this sage reads like the numerous ones before it: The Chargers embrace a player when he is young and productive and deliver a cold shoulder once either of those change.

What’s baffling is that the Chargers aren’t alone in roster turnover. The NFL is famous for depleting

bodies, and then disposing them once they revolt from playing this violent game.

But few teams — any?

— seem to botch the separation of a star and a franchise with such buffoonery as the Chargers.

Many of the Chargers’ all-time greats were shown the door like an undrafted free agent. Standouts, that should have exited with their head high and a back sore from slaps, were kicked to the curb like rubbish.

It’s an impressive list of those leaving with a frown and frustration: Ron Mix, Dan Fouts, Kellen Winslow, Leslie O’Neal, Junior Seau, Rodney Harrison and LaDainian Tomlinson.

Now it’s time to throw Weddle on the scrap heap and tell me you’re not surprised.

Weddle’s agent, David Canter, revealed that the Chargers fined their defensive captain $10,000 for watching his daughter perform during halftime of the recent Dolphins game.

Instead of joining his teammates for the break, Weddle broke ranks.

To be fair, that is an infraction worthy of discipline.

To be fair, this is making a mountain out of a speed bump.

Weddle should have informed the coaches of his intentions.

But Weddle figured asking for permission and being denied wouldn’t accomplish his goal.

So he took his punishment, paid his fine and moved on without a word.

But the petty Chargers do what they do best: making an uncomfortable situation untenable.

Weddle, who aggravated a groin injury in the loss at Oakland, was placed on injured reserve. That guaranteed he couldn’t play in Sunday’s season finale at Denver, the last game in among the most dreadful seasons in Chargers history.

The team told Weddle he couldn’t board its charter flight. Something about the plane being too small and if you can’t see through that bluster, take another look, Buster.

The Chargers had a card to play and did just that. Weddle wanted to see his last Chargers game from the sidelines.

But someone who’s gone above and beyond for the Chargers — before his halftime shenanigans — was denied.

Instead Weddle will watch from afar as the Chargers attempt to upset the Broncos.

What’s clear is Weddle has been bucked from the Chargers’ good graces.

Good gracious, Weddle is in good company.

Haven’t you ever lost anything?

O

h, triple bother and spit. I want to jump up and holler, “What were you thinking?” and chastise my nonchalant family, insisting it’s not my fault. But they have me outnumbered.

Who hasn’t lost a gift card or check in the mountain of wrapping paper at least once?

Well, probably my husband’s careful family and certainly not my daughter or her husband.

Because they never toss anything out without a waiting period of several months and oftimes, not for years.

I have tried to be scrupulous about keeping trash paper separate from valuables, but this year I lost the battle.

This was the Christmas when I threw away not one, but two significant amounts of money.

The first, a gift certificate, I was able to retrieve, happily finding it not in the trash (which I waded through anyway) but in my bathrobe pocket (cleaning house in my jammies … my favorite style) where I stuffed it to be thrown out later.

All I saw was a flat, unclosed, apparently unused plastic gift baggie, decorated with a reindeer. It sat on the coffee table, alone and unmarked.

I figured I had somehow unintentionally dragged it downstairs from the wrapping room during decorating. Am I so wrong?

Then the day after Christmas, my daughter asked if I had seen a check she had received.

I had seen the oversized envelope it came in, torn open. You see, I would simply never, ever leave a large (or small) check inside the torn, open envelope that looks like trash. And I TURN TO SMALL TALK ON B12

ENCINITAS — Tate Sanderson has lived the life of the proverbial rock star, touring around the world, playing guitar on stage with iconic rock bands as Tesla and Black Flag and all in front of thousands of screaming fans.

But the rock star road took an unexpected — and maybe unorthodox — turn a little more than a decade ago, a turn that he credits for giving him a whole different outlook on life.

In 2004 Sanderson went from spending months on end on the road to putting down roots back in his hometown of Encinitas, all because, he said, he needed to take care of his young daughter.

Though with no longer being on tour, Sanderson needed to find a job.

“I couldn’t really go out and be doing the rock thing,” Sanderson said.

“I had to be there for my daughter.”

Sanderson eventually landed a couple of new gigs: working as a teacher

COW project helps Roosevelt students think outside the box

By Hoa Quach

VISTA — At 12 years old, Sullivan Brown is passionate about gardening.

He’s grown corn, watermelon, tomatoes, and most recently, cilantro.

The Roosevelt Middle School student had the opportunity to further explore his passion in the classroom thanks to a technology-based project that spanned across three states.

Sullivan is one of more than 600 students to participate in COW, a collaborative project formed among three schools in California, Ohio and Wisconsin. In the project, teachers asked the questions, “How do people affect the land?” and “How does the land affect people?” Students then answered it in their own way, while sharing resources with their peers.

“I love gardening so I did an experiment on how fertilizer affects cilantro,” Sullivan said. “I really enjoyed choosing my own thing to do. I liked the creativity of it.”

To document his findings, Sullivan took a photo of his growing cilantro

every 30 minutes over the course of a few weeks. His photos were merged into a time-lapse video.

About 250 seventh grade students at Roosevelt Middle answered the questions by exploring topics

like earthquakes, glaciers and over-industrialization.

They documented their findings in presentations like stop-motion videos, video games or infographics.

“When you allow stu-

dents to think outside the box, it’s remarkable the things they come up with,” Elise Ochenduszko, principal of Roosevelt Middle School, said. “They exceeded all of our expectations.”

Ochenduszko said the

project was formed after Devin Vodicka, superintendent for Vista Unified, met the superintendents for Mentor Public Schools from Ohio and Kettle Moraine School District from Wisconsin during a conference.

“They thought it would be neat to do a collaboration between the three school districts,” Ochenduszko said. “The goal of the project was to really engage the students in what we call competency-based learning rather than giving them information. It was an intriguing opportunity to collaborate with other states.”

Jessica Janes, science teacher at Roosevelt Middle, said students were able to take ownership of their own work.

“Students took more initiative in their self-directed learning than typically seen,” Janes said.

“They had to take charge in teaching themselves certain skills and troubleshooting their various problems, rather than relying on someone else to provide all the answers. I have nev-

Brewery hops over obstacles to set roots in Vista

By Hoa Quach

VISTA — It was 2005 when Terry Little tried his first craft beer. Little, who was serving in the U.S. Navy at the time, was in Imperial Beach when he had a Stone pale ale.

“I remember it so vividly,” Little said. “This was just when Stone was picking up, so that was 10 years ago. They have come far.”

Little has come far, too.

He and his wife, Page, are the owners of Bear Roots Brewing Company in Vista, which opened in December. It joins more than 100 craft breweries in San Diego County and is the 13th brewery in the city.

But the opening of the one-barrel brewhouse didn’t come without its

challenges. The husband and wife team relied on 40 donors who contributed more than $25,000 on the crowdfunding website, Kickstarter, while family members supplied the rest of the monetary support.

“It was very stressful,” Little said. “I thought I knew what I had gotten myself into but I didn’t have a clue. We used loans, credit cards, and my in-laws gave us the financial backing we really needed.”

With about $100,000 to spend, the Littles created their one-barrel brewhouse on Santa Fe Avenue from the ground up. Nick Bowling, who is now the brewery’s manager, also helped.

“What’s neat about what we’ve accomplished

is that we built everything you see in here,” Little said.

“Everything but the concrete we created. It’s 100 percent ourselves.”

Little, who is the sole brewer of the company, serves up to 16 taps at any given time. He spends his nights brewing at least five different beers a week after working full-time as the director of operations for a manufacturing company in Sorrento Valley.

“I’m usually here from 5 p.m. to 12 a.m. brewing beer,” Little said. “All the beers we have are very complex. I brew until all the fermenters are full.”

Little describes his beers as old-fashioned and distinct. He said brewing beer is like being a chef

with the yeast being the most important part.

“We don’t brew traditional beers,” Little said.

“I won’t put out a beer if it isn’t the highest quality.”

But Bear Roots Brewing isn’t just a tasting room.

Little wants to share his passion and knowledge for brewing beer, too. To do that, he stocks his business with all the supplies one would need to brew beer at home. Customers can also call in their home brewing orders and have their ingredients ready for pickup, he said.

“Every brewer gets their start in homebrewing,” Little said. “I wanted to give people a chance to TURN TO BREWERY ON B12

As a public policy researcher, my job is mostly data analysis, and researching and writing about regional economic issues.

My job is unique in North County, but fundamentally we all have the same room for improvement in our careers. Seek opportunities for advancement and professional visibility.

Often we won’t be offered opportunities by someone — we have to create them and take them for ourselves. Be entrepreneurial and innovative in your workplace!

When it comes to the relationships we have with family and friends, I’ve found that there is no replacement for showing up.

Social media outlets like Facebook and Gmail Chat give us an opportunity to passively keep in touch, but not strengthen and deepen meaningful relationships.

Bridge the distances in your life, and take your time to get to know the people that are in your life.

Use vacation time to spend a whole day, or a weekend with people you know. Make new friends too. I’ve had success with MeetUp groups and gotten to know my neighbors better this year.

I’m eager to see what 2016 has in store for me.

How about you? Think positive, and make this year better than the last. More importantly, live in the moment.

To quote one of my favorite TV characters, “Live now! Make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again.”

ith the start of a new year, we have an opportunity to reflect on the prior twelve months, and start fresh with new goals for the future.

Most years, I write out my goals — financial, career and relationship-focused — and I put them in an envelope for safe-keeping.

The process of thinking about what your goals should be and writing them out on paper fosters clarity and resolve.

At the end of the year, I open the envelope, look at the goals I set, consider my failures and successes, and move on.

Like most North County residents, I’ve had to find creative ways to tighten my budget this year, and reevaluate how I spend money.

With my parents’ guidance and encouragement, I’ve been able to cut my budget down by hundreds of dollars.

When it comes to saving money, there are no sacred cows! Shopping at Smart & Final and Dollar Tree have made me think how much I’ve been overpaying for food and household goods at other places.

Luckily for me, I won’t have to drive from Carlsbad to Vista anymore to get to Smart & Final — a new store is opening up in Carlsbad Village early next year.

NEWS?

By Chuck Shepherd New World Order In December, Canada’s supportive organization The Transgender Project released a biographical video of the former Paul Wolscht, 46 and the father of seven children with his ex-wife, Marie, describing his new life as not only a female but a 6-year-old female, Stephoknee Wolscht. She told the Daily Xtra (gay and lesbian news site) that not acting her real age (even while doing “adult” things like working a job and driving a car) enables her to escape “depression and suicidal thoughts.” Among the trans-age’s favorite activities are (coloring-book) coloring, creating a playlike “kingdom,” and wearing “really pretty clothes.” Stephoknee now lives with the couple who adopted her. [The Independent (London), 12-162015] Unclear on the Concept Thee, Not Me: American “millennials” (those aged 18 to 29) continue a “long-standing tradition,” The Washington Post wrote in December, describing a Harvard Institute of Politics poll on their views on war. Following the recent Paris terrorist attacks, about 60 percent of U.S. millennials said additional American troops would be needed to fight the Islamic State, but 85 percent answered, in the next question, that no, they themselves were “probably” or “definitely” not joining the military. [Washington Post, 12-10-2015] Exceptional Floridians (1) Police in St. Petersburg reported the December arrest of a 12-year-old boy whose rap sheet listed “more than 20” arrests since age 9.

He, on a bicycle, had told an 89-year-old driver at a gas station that the man’s tire was low, and when the man got out to check, the boy hopped in the car and took off. (2) A driver accidentally plowed through two small businesses in Pensacola in December, creating such destruction that the manager of one said it looked like a bomb had hit (forcing both — a tax service and a casket company — to relocate).

The driver told police he was attempting to “travel through time.” [WTSPTV (St. Petersburg), 12-15-2015] [WEAR-TV (Pensacola), 12-23-2015] Compelling Explanations Breen Peck, 52, an air traffic controller who has been having career troubles in recent years, was arrested during a traffic stop on New York’s Long Island in December when officers found illegal drugs in his car. “That’s meth,” he said. “I’m an air traffic controller.” “I smoke it to stay awake.”

The winners will be announced in New York City on Saturday, March 5, 2016. Palomar College students named as finalists are: Steven Garcea for Best Newscast, Dylan Hanks for Best Public Service Announcement, and Serena Reid for Best Program Director. Zeb Navarro was named as a finalist in the Best Faculty Adviser category. KKSM broadcasts 24/7 on AM-1320,

ROBERTS HEADS SANDAG The SANDAG Board of Directors unanimously elected San Diego County Supervisor Ron Roberts as its new chairman and Del Mar Deputy Mayor Terry Sinnott as vice chair. Roberts — a former planning commissioner and two-term councilmember for the city of San Diego — has represented the county’s Fourth District since 1994. He formerly served as vice chair of the SANDAG Board, and he will be the first county supervisor ever to serve as chair when he takes up his new post in January.

QUESTIONABLE HONOR According to a release from the National Federation of Independent Business, California had the grim honor of being named the “No. 1 judicial hellhole” in the country by the American Tort Reform Foundation, which has been releasing the ranking since 2002. California has taken the top ranking three out of the last four years. Among other reasons, the Golden State earned the top spot because it is considered the ‘epicenter’ of ADA access lawsuits and class action lawsuits against food makers.

The report points out the frivolous claims that attorneys across the state use to sue vulnerable businesses in targeted industries.

Aquaponics farming teaches self-sufficiency in more ways than one

By Dean Patterson

VISTA — Solving family homelessness through increasing self-sufficiency and aquaponics is no longer a fish tale for President and CEO of Solutions for Change, Chris Megison and CEO of Go Green Agriculture, Pierre Sleiman.

As pioneers in both their respective fields the announcement of expansion plans for the Solutions Farms comes with great relief and satisfaction after years of hard work engaging the community and winning over perceptive social purpose investors.

“Aquaponics has been around for a long time,” Sleiman said. “In recent times, the combination of technology systems with hydroponic greenhouse growing has made it possible to really magnify the synergy of growing plants and fish together.”

In short, aquaponics is the marriage of raising fish and growing plants without soil in one integrated system.

The fish waste provides an organic food source for the growing plants and the plants provide a natural filter for the water the fish live in. The third participants are the microbes and the red worms that thrive in the growing media.

They do the job of converting the fish waste into food for the plants.

“Solutions Farms gives those in the deepest of poverty access to the healthiest food that they could consume,” Megison said.

“Homeless people could rarely afford this premium food but

our families will get the best of the best food. Also, the homeless themselves will run this state of the art farm.”

The expansion of the Solutions Farms like the aquaponics system itself will help increase their self-sufficiency ratio to permanently solve family homelessness. “Social enterprises like this farm pays about one-third of the cost per family annually,” Megison said. “What we hope to do is see that ratio rise to one-half

that cost.”

With this expansion Solutions for Change will now be able to increase the number of their residents that can participate in their workforce training program so more parents of homeless families are getting jobs annually. Additionally, this new level of expansion will quadruple their production of certified organic food for distribution sales. Those dollars then get cycled back into the organization’s resources, reinforcing

their resolute theme of self-sufficiency.

“Throughout our organization’s history, we have reinvented the playbooks on what solving homelessness looks like,” Megison said. “Now, with the Solutions Farms expansion, we’re continuing that tradition of innovation.”

Strengthened by the support of the Alliance Healthcare Foundation’s Innovation Initiative (i2) grant, Solutions for Change has undergone more than a year

of planning and consulting with aquaponics experts and builders from around the world.

At the top of the list, local Encinitas business Go Green stood out as one of leaders that could help champion the expansion project to reality. Not hurting Go Green’s esteem was an endorsement from President Barack Obama as a “Champion of Change” in “The Future of Agriculture.”

“We are excited to come alongside such an innovative social organization like Solutions for Change,” Sleiman said. “Aquaponics is a rapidly evolving method of farming that we’ve been closely watching.

“The community support and investments obtained by Solutions show us that they are on the cutting edge of doing big things in the world of local sustainable farming. As trailblazers ourselves, we want to be part of growing the best food, while also having a positive impact on society through solving family homelessness.”

When completed early next year, the farm will provide organically certified greens each year to hospitals, companies, nonprofits and Vista Unified School District’s area schools, one of the farm’s main partners in its pilot phase.

“Our hope is that we can operationalize this model and teach other nonprofits how to grow great food,” Megison said. “Do good for others while funding their social missions.”

That doesn’t mean resignation, but rather accepting what is, which can be a positive adjustment. When patients aren’t struggling with the process, there’s new energy they can harness for continued recovery. Sometimes a patient must acknowledge their life has taken a new direction.

They need to find ways to excel despite the change in abilities.

It’s a tricky dance. We want to cultivate hope but also be realistic about what’s happening right now and walk through that process with them.

We sponsor programs for different patient groups. We have a healing arts group, a chair yoga class and support groups for people coping with spinal cord injuries or stroke/ brain injury. These provide an extra layer of care to help patients recover, and all the groups are free.

I also collaborate with outside organizations, such as the San Diego Parkinson’s Association, the San Diego Brain Injury Foundation and other groups.

How do you help patients address their concerns?

I meet with patients oneon-one to help them understand the rehabilitation process based on their condition.

We have to be careful. We don’t want to put a ceiling on their recovery – everyone has What’s the best part of your the right to hope.

Learn how to: • Minimize your carbon footprint by keeping food and yard waste out

of the landfill, helping reduce harmful methane gas emissions.

• Use this “waste” to create a nutrient rich amendment for your garden. Compost use reduces the need for synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.

• Reduce water use and increase water retention. Compost increases your soil’s water holding capacity by up to 7 times and retains water for up to 7 days.

• Work with a team to build, maintain and troubleshoot a traditional compost pile. Course will also cover composting with worms (vermicomposting) and compost fermentation

Traveling with aging parents doesn’t have to be limiting hit the road e’louise ondash

V

alerie Grubb and her then-80-year-old mother had traveled more than 300,000 miles together over a 20-year span when things changed about four years ago.

Suddenly her mother wasn’t as mobile and confident.

“She had transitioned to a wheelchair (for walking long distances) and she wasn’t sure she could get from Indiana to New York and meet me (at the airport) like she usually did,” Grubb explained in a phone interview from her home in Manhattan. “I looked all over for information on traveling with older people and couldn’t find any books out there.”

Grubb also figured that there were plenty of others who could use the same sort of help, so the human relations consultant who also travels extensively for work decided to be that source of information. She wrote “Planes, Canes, and Automobiles: Connecting with Your Aging Parents through Travel” (Greenleaf Book Group Press; soft-cover; $16.95), but the book “was soundly rejected 16 times because editors told her that she ‘didn’t have a platform.’”

This is publishing-industry speak for “you need an audience,” so Grubb went about creating one.

Knowing that there were plenty of people out there who could benefit from what she had learned

New York City resident and author Valerie Grubb and her family visit Tiger Kingdom in Chiang Mai, Thailand, in 2014. From left to right: Brother Eric Grubb holding daughter, Dani; sister-in-law Memory holding daughter, Niki; the author; and her mother, Dorothy, who lives in Indiana. Photos are courtesy of Valerie Grubb

during her two decades of travel with her mother, Grubb began writing a blog.

Called travelingwithagingparents.com, it currently has 11,000 followers and addresses concerns like safety issues when traveling with an older person; medications and health insurance; selecting an appropriate destination; necessary travel and medical documents; and how to slow your pace and like it.

“The time is right for this book,” said Grubb, who is 49. “I have so many friends who are in this position with older parents or who will be in this position. Their parents are getting older and they want to know how we continue to travel as things

change. They also want to know about multigenerational traveling.”

Grubb knows about that, too.

She has taken several long-distance vacations with her 52-year-old brother, his wife, their now-4-year-old twins, as well as mother Dorothy.

The group recently returned from Yellowstone National Park and have been to several overseas countries, including China, Thailand and Australia.

“We are a slow-moving bunch,” she admits, but there are rewards.

“I have learned more about my mother since we have been traveling than I ever thought I would,” she said. “I call my mother every day, but never knew that she got

kicked out of school for roughhousing, or that my father lost his pilot’s license for a while after flying a plane down an alley because my mother told him she wouldn’t marry him if he were the last S.O.B. on earth. When you are relaxing on vacations, things come out. You can’t get that in phone calls.”

Here are some of Grubbs pearls of wisdom when it comes to traveling with older people: • Be prepared with all necessary information on medical history, physician contacts and list of medications (generic names will be the same in any country).

• Understand the older person’s medical needs and physical

Veteran traveler Valerie Grubbs’ “Planes, Canes, and Automobiles: Connecting with Your Aging Parents through Travel” offers advice on vacation planning, packing, getting along while traveling with family and older persons.

limitations. Pick larger hotels that have a physician available.

• Manage your expectations and slow down. Do one big event a day, then plan a rest. It can be in a restaurant.

• Don’t parent your parents.

Try for a balance between decision-maker and assuming the parental role. Don’t tell them; invite them. Ask their opinion. Treat them like a friend.

Voices of Belmont Village

“The friends that I have made here have turned my life around.”

Elizabeth Hospice patient Carmin, at home with her family in San Diego, CA.

Family is forever.

It’s easier to look back than to look forward, especially when a loved one is seriously ill. In a way, our shared history is timeless. But family is more than a memory. It’s being a parent, a sister, a son. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it. When we can do the right thing for the one we love, we carry that with us forever — like family. With over 37 years of leading nonprofit service, the Elizabeth Hospice expertly guides families through life’s most difficult transition, providing support and counsel for every age, at every step.

To many, living at home means freedom and independence.

But it can also be isolating. Belmont Village residents enjoy a lifestyle that keeps them physically active and mentally engaged, delighting in the company of friends old and new. At Belmont Village, you don’t have to live alone to be independent.

It’s not just your home. It’s your community.

My review of 2015 and the Top 10 Tastes taste of wine frank mangio

T

ASTE OF WINE has come a long way, about to step into its 11th year of bringing you news and views of a procession of wines that make the world a happier place.

I wish to thank everyone that, in 2015, invited me into their lives and places of business, so that I could bring my readers a further taste of the world of wine. A special thanks to Banfi Vintners, the world leader in Italian wines, for their kindness in recognizing TASTE OF WINE and supporting its goals.

Locally, Seasalt Del Mar and its owner Salvatore Ercolano, in its first year, has brought a lively, important wine imprint on the San Diego restaurant scene this year.

I read in the Wall Street Journal how the medical profession again reported that moderate consumption of red wine, “shows that it can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease and depression‌ by keeping people socially active.â€? I’ll drink to that!

Space is limited so let’s get into the Top 10 Tastes for 2015.

You will find three Merlots, two Pinot Noirs, two blends, one Cabernet and one Italian Brunello.

Napa Valley dominates with four entries.

The 10 are equally ranked as “excellent,� considering flavor, body and value at the best pricing I could find. The list is alphabetical and does not indicate ranking.

Castello Banfi Brunel-

lo di Montalcino Tuscany, Italy, 2010. ($54.99) The big and bold Sangiovese clone with intense ruby red flavor and hints of licorice.

Supple tannins caused by a five-year process before release. Castellobanfi.com.

Chelsea Goldschmidt Merlot, Dry Creek Sonoma, Calif. 2011. ($22) Bravo to world renowned winemaker Nick Goldschmidt’s daughter who learned all about wine from pop. One of our three emerging Merlots. Goldschmidtsisters. com.

Etude Chardonnay, Carneros Napa Valley, 2012. ($14) A bright, fresh Chardonnay with a Carneros flavor in the south bay of Napa Valley. Enjoy lemon, honeydew melon and pear accents. Active acidity keeps it refreshing.

Etudewines.com Grgich Hills Estate Merlot, Napa Valley, 2012. ($43) Founded by the legendary Mike Grgich, the winery is certified organic and their Merlot is full-bodied, a “cab lover’s Merlot.� Grgich.com.

Hill Family Estate Merlot, Napa Valley, 2012. ($40) Deep, jammy, blackberry nose with ripe strawberry and sweet mocha.

Long finish. Hillfamilyestate.com.

Morgan 12 Clones Pinot Noir, Santa Lucia Highlands, 2012. ($33) Dan Morgan Lee has more than 33 years of making great Pinot at the winery.

aste & Sea is easy to miss as it is tucked away in an intimate and charming location next to Solterra on Coast Highway 101 in Leucadia — but definitely worth seeking out.

in recently

I popped and met owner Brittany Austin whose passion for what she does is very evident in the world-class pastries, both sweet and savory, that she and her team are producing.

Below is a conversation we had about Taste & Sea The bakers at Taste & Sea from left: Jessica Getchel, owner Brittany Austin and Ally Johnson. Photo by David Boylan and how it came to be:

Where did you grow up and what were your early culinary influences, were you baking at a young age?

I spent the first half of my life in a small town named Danville an hour east of San Francisco. I attended Point Loma University then the San Diego Culinary Institute. In terms of culinary influences I would have to say it started with my family. My parents are amazing cooks and my grandma is a wonderful cake decorator. I was greatly inspired by her artistry in bringing fun and creativity to dessert. I actually learned a lot of my basic decorating techniques from her when I was young.

At what point did you decide that you wanted pursue being a pastry chef as a career?

While I was in culinary school I was inspired to one day open my own bakery.

However, I knew that was not something that happened overnight. So from there I dove into the industry and did whatever I could to make this dream a reality. In terms of the title as pastry chef, it organically developed as I grew more in my talent and the experience in this field.

Tell me about your culinary school experience and how does the experience of going through a pastry program differ than a standard degree in culinary arts?

I thoroughly enjoyed going through the specialized courses with sole disciplines and techniques in Pastry. Baking and Pa-

tisserie is set up as an intensive 10-month program where I was French classically-trained. The classes are set up based on Chef demos and student handson learning. By the end of 10 months you have gone through several different courses ranging from breads, plated desserts, wedding cakes, and chocolate work.

You’ve had an impressive road that led to opening Taste & Sea Cakery that has included some of San Diego’s nicer restaurants.

Tell me about that and what stops along the way influenced your style the most?

After graduating from the San Diego Culinary Institute I was blessed with the opportunity to work at The Grand Del Mar under Executive Chef Thierry Delourneaux, and later Executive Chef Melissa Logan. It was incredible working at such a renowned resort. I

would have to say a majority of my precision to detail, quality, and creative flavor pairings developed while working there. After that I got the opportunity to live in Spain for four months baking and creating pastry delicacies for Art Events for EDGE project. From there I began working at Claire’s on Cedros. My experience working under the owner Claire was valuable and rewarding. It was while working there that I was reminded of the passion I had for one day owning my own bakery.

Though working at these places has been incredible and refining to my craft, I would have to say my over all influence of style has come from traveling. I have traveled internationally over many years. I love

getting inspired by different countries from Spain, Italy, London, France, Australia, India and Brazil. If I were to sum it up I would say that all of the dessert that comes out of Taste & Sea has a very strong European influence.

You have a very charming retail location right next to Solterra in Leucadia. What can people expect there?

They will immediately notice the delightful atmosphere and be greeted with the warmth of my amazing team. We have a wide selection of specialty espresso drinks that can be paired with syrups that are made in house. You’ll see people sharing a dessert and those picking up their special TURN TO LICK THE PLATE ON B12

B10 LEGALS Coast News legals continued from page B7 A Petition for Probate has been filed by David Ransdell in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego.

The Petition for Probate requests that David Ransdell be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court on Jan 14, 2016 at 1:30 PM in Dept. PC-2 located at 1409 Fourth Ave, San Diego, CA 92101 Madge Bradley Building.

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.

up a guitar at the age of 12) he started bringing music into the classroom.

About eight years ago, while teaching, Sanderson met Will Bennett, the son of former San Diego Chargers standout punter Darren Bennett. Will, who has muscular dystrophy, was one of the first students Sanderson had started to work with on music.

During that time, the pair formed a bond over music and bands, with Will becoming a seeming encyclopedia on the subjects.

Despite the continuing issues muscular dystrophy had on Will, Sanderson said that he always kept a positive attitude. That inspired Sanderson to want to do something for Will.

“Being a professional musician… all I knew was touring and playing around,” he said.

And so what Sanderson felt he could best do was write a song.

“Will Power” was the end result. The song, which took Sanderson a year to write, working on it in little bits at a time, is heavy on the rock and blues — something out of the arena of ZZ Top — one of Will’s favorite

would not have just left it, again, on the coffee table, away from all other gifts.

I would have immediately put it in my wallet where it could fall into my purse and get lost later.

I am pretty horrified that after 34 years of marriage and 29 years of motherhood, I still think this way.

Am I so oblivious to the unacceptable, careless, foolish habits of those I

T he C oast News bands.

Much of the song’s lyrics actually came from things Will would say, Sanderson explained.

Will is always looking on the bright side of life, Sanderson said. “So if you listen to the song, it’s about looking on the bright side of life,” he said.

This is the first song Sanderson’s written with the sole intent to raise money and awareness for a cause. All of the proceeds from the purchase of the song go to the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

He gave an early version of the song to Will for his birthday a couple of years ago, and an updated version was recorded at his home studio and at Oceanside’s No Mercy Studios, which is now available for the public to purchase or request on local radio stations.

Sanderson continues to work with other special needs kids, introducing them to music and instruments.

He said he thinks working with the music helps the kids become more social.

“Kids that like music, they want to help the other kids learn music, so they have this bond all of a sudden,” he said.

“Also, it just gets them to where either they’re thinking of things they wouldn’t normally think of, and they’re doing things they didn’t think they could use their hands for… but all of a sudden they’re playing chords — and they may be shaky but they’re making a chord and they’re making it sound good.”

Besides teaching, Sanderson has been back to working on new music and writing songs. He said now that his daughter is about to finish high school he’s ready to hit the road again.

The music he’s been writing is bluesy, with some country — but it’s all rock ‘n’ roll, he said. “I don’t ever veer too far from rock ‘n’ roll.”

While he might have missed the rock life he left behind years ago, Sanderson added that leaving it kind of saved his life.

“I’ve got a different whole outlook on life, so I think my songs maybe will have more clarity to them and more of a message. And I know I’m a helluva lot better guitar player, because I’ve been teaching the whole time.”

love? Have I learned nothing?

Oh, did I say unacceptable and careless? Sorry….

I mean, the common and rather predictable habits of others.

Since both of them did the “leave-a-torn-or-unmarked-container-on-thecoffee-table” move, I am ready to concede that I am in the OCD minority around here.

But it is a concession given much like the surrender of Lee to Grant.

I will, no doubt, go to

my grave wanting to tidy up. But I am beaten and henceforth, I will scrutinize everything thrice, before it hits the trash bag.

There will just never be any gloating about being right, after recycling a $2,000 check, picked up by city workman just hours before.

I hand over my sword … or trash bag with humility.
