ENCINITAS — As the city grapples with the coronavirus pandemic, THE residents and local officials find themVISTA selves confronted with a difNEWS ferent challenge — finding a new city manager. On April 15, City Manager Karen Brust submitted her letter of resignation effective June 12, according to an internal city email received by The Coast News. Brust, RANCHO who was first hired to the SFNEWS position in 2015, was named the Director of BRUST Emergency Services after the Encinitas City Council issued a Proclamation of Local Emergency on March 16, activating its Emergency Operations Center in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the director of emergency services, Brust is responsible for addressing the impacts and conditions caused by COVID-19, in addition to obtaining assistance from local, county, state and federal agencies. Assistant City Manager Mark Delin will serve as interim director until Brust’s replacement is chosen. “Karen has been a fantastic city manager for nearly five years,” said Mayor Catherine Blakespear. “She’ll be sorely missed. We wish her many happy years in retirement.” It remains unclear if there are currently any candidates being considered to permanently fill the vacancy left by Brust, who also served as city manager for the cities of Del Mar and San Juan Capistrano. Over the next 60 days, Brust will be “preparing a transition plan to ensure

San Diego County Fair postponed until next year By Lexy Brodt
DEL MAR — The San Diego County Fair will not take place this summer due to the COVID-19 pandemic — an unprecedented reality for the long-running and beloved local event. During its April 14 meeting, the 22nd District Agricultural Association Board of Directors decided to postpone the Del Mar Fairgrounds event until 2021. The unanimous board decision was solidified hours after Gov. Gavin Newsom made a statement calling the prospect of mass gatherings “negligible” until there is a vaccine and herd immunity to the virus. He said that such gatherings in

June, July and August were “unlikely.” The fair, previously slated to open on June 5 and end on July 5, draws over 1.5 million visitors to the state-
owned property every year, for food, entertainment, musical acts and rides. This year the event was to embrace a superhero theme. “It was our intention to

Loss of tourism revenue hits coastal cities By Lexy Brodt

Retired local doctor joins front line of COVID-19 fight By Tawny McCray
CARLSBAD — A retired Carlsbad doctor couldn’t have imagined when he began volunteering with CAL-MAT last year that he’d be on the frontlines of a worldwide catastrophe the likes of which no one has ever seen. “I started with them last year and I responded to the fires in Southern California, I took care of the firefighters and helped open a shelter (for the displaced),” Dr. Chuck Wright said. “(COVID-19) was kind of unexpected. They needed doctors and nurses and so we put a team together and went to Northern California.” For the first two weeks, the team worked in Monterey County at a state beach called Asilomar, where they received passengers from the Grand Princess cruise ship. “It fell under the CDC quarantine orders, so we had a federal marshal there and we took care of them until they were through with their isolation orders,” he said. His next stop was to San Mateo, where he and a team treated quarantined patients in a hotel, to help ease the strain on local hospitals. Wright’s next trip to Los Angeles has been put on hold. “I think what’s happening is they thought the surge would be much higher than it is now, so the hospitals are actually handling things,” he said. “They thought they’d be overwhelmed and need a lot of extra support but it seems like the amount of patients is lower than expected so the need for the alternate care sites is a little bit less. So I’m just kind of standing by until they call and say, ‘We need you’”. He added that it’s a day to day situation and the numbers could go back up. “I think the sheltering in place is working but the minute it eases up and
people start going about their day without masks or gloves we may see another surge,” he said. For now, Wright said the downtime has been good for him. “After a month of working every day for 18 hours I was pretty wiped out so I needed the break anyway,” he said. Wright said that while he does feel a calling to help out, he worries that he may become infected and takes every precaution to avoid getting it. “I’m 62 so that puts me at higher risk,” he said. “It’s always in the back of my mind when a COVID positive patient is coughing and I know I’m being exposed even though I have my PPE on. I know that if I get it, I’m going to have a harder time fighting it than someone who’s younger, so it’s in the back of my mind but I think my desire to help people is higher than my desire to not get the virus.” He said it’s not just people in healthcare who are putting themselves out there, he said grocery store workers are also on the front lines. “They’re being of service as much as I am, people need groceries and they need food to survive,” he said. Wright said the important thing for people to remember is that they must stay vigilant, stay at home and stay protected. “You’ve got to isolate or shelter in place to protect others not just yourself,” he said. “Some young people think, ‘Well it’s just going to be like the flu and I’ll get it but I’ll be okay,’ but they’re not thinking about giving it to other people, the elderly, people in nursing homes, people who are immunocompromised. “I don’t think as many people get that, they think they’re doing it for themselves but they don’t think about doing it for other people.”
REGION — The COVID-19 pandemic is hitting coastal cities hard — leaving businesses without customers, and many residents furloughed or simply without jobs. But city coffers are also seeing significant losses. For Del Mar, Solana Beach and Encinitas, a large portion of their general fund revenues are generated through sales tax and transient occupancy tax (“hotel tax”). With tourism stagnant and restaurants closed to dine-in service, these numbers are seeing substantial declines – both in this fiscal year and the following. The pandemic’s impact on property tax revenue remains a question mark for now, though some city staff anticipate these numbers may take a hit much furAN AERIAL VIEW of a condo community in Solana Beach, which has experienced a sigther down the road.
Encinitas At an April 1 city council meeting, City of Encinitas Finance Director Teresa S. McBroome presented potential losses from general fund revenues for the next few fiscal years: $2 million this fiscal year; $4.4 million the following; and a $1.9 million loss as far out as fiscal year 2022. “The feedback that I’m receiving from our tax consultants is that this recession is unlike any of the last three recessions that we’ve experienced,” McBroome said, adding that projections are fluid, due to the arbitrary timeline of the COVID-19 crisis. According to McBroome, declines in sales tax and hotel tax revenue have been immediate, as well as gas tax revenue. The city isn’t projecting an immediate dive in property tax revenue until fiscal year 2021-2022, assuming families that cannot afford their mortgage payments opt to sell their homes at lower values, “(putting) a drag on assessed values.” Property tax revenues make of 63% of the city’s total general fund revenues, with sales tax at 18% and the hotel tax at 3%. The city council did not take any actions related to the budget at the meeting. Del Mar Del Mar is already taking steps to soften the blow, now having anticipated an estimated loss of $2.9 million just between March and June, from the start of the crisis through the end of the current fiscal year. City Clerk Ashley Jones called the financial implications of the COVID-19 crisis “far-reaching.” “This is particularly true for cities like Del Mar, that generate a significant amount of revenue from visitor-serving businesses such as hotels, restaurants…” she said, adding that Del Mar will lose significant sales tax revenue due to the closure of the Del Mar Fairgrounds and the cancellation of their events.
nificant loss in transient occupancy tax revenue due to a lack of tourism as result of the COVID-19 pandemic. File photo
Jones added that after three months of reduced revenues, Del Mar’s general fund reserves would be depleted. The biggest chunk lost came from the city’s transient occupancy tax revenue, with about $1 million in lost revenue in this fiscal year alone. The hotel tax comprises 5.4% of the city’s revenue. These projected losses assume there will be no hotel taxes collected for the months of April, May and June. The city also identified losses to sales tax, and tangentially, the Measure Q fund – which draws from a voter-approved 1% sales tax hike in order to fund special projects. The city will see a $250,000 loss in sales tax revenue from June alone, in large part due to the Del Mar Fairground’s closure and the cancellation of the annual San Diego County Fair. On April 6, the council approved budget adjustments of about $1.13 mil-
lion in savings for FY20192020. Staff applied the cuts to a large swath of items – identifying $455,000 of savings related to general operations, capital improvement projects and operational expenditures, with another $670,000 of savings related to Measure Q-dependent projects.
Solana Beach Solana Beach is also projecting significant impacts – foreseeing a total reduction to the general fund budget of $1.35 million, from the end of this fiscal year through FY 2020-2021. The city is projecting a $116,000 shortfall in sales tax revenue through the end of FY 2020, and a loss of $56,800 in FY 2021, assuming that restaurants will be open and bringing in revenue by the end of said fiscal year. Transient occupancy tax revenue is seeing a $321,000 loss in this fiscal
year, or a 22.6% reduction. For the next fiscal year staff anticipating a loss of $415,600. City staff say hotels are seeing a hefty drop in their bookings, and they are expecting a slow recovery to tourist activity. Revenues related to development needs are dropping, due to city hall being closed, and only offering essential services. In this fiscal year, the city is seeing a $300,900 drop in revenue related to permitting needs. Like Encinitas, Solana Beach isn’t anticipating an impact to property taxes for this fiscal year – although its plausible that assessed valuations of properties will decrease down the road. At the city’s April 8 city council meeting, City Manager Greg Wade said city staff are looking to bring potential “belt-tightening” measures to the council in the near future, in order to make up for the expected deficit.
Carlsbad estimates $3.2M loss in April By Steve Puterski
CARLSBAD — The COVID-19 pandemic is causing serious concerns and financial drops regarding municipalities and their revenue streams. The city of Carlsbad addressed their expected shortfalls for the end of Fiscal Year 2019-20 and into 2020-21 and beyond during its April 14 meeting. The city is projecting decreases in sales tax of $3.2 million for April, assuming a continued full shutdown, as its revenue streams have dramatically dropped. Property taxes, meanwhile, are projected to decrease about $1.2 million and are temporary, according to Laura Rocha, deputy city manager. In addition, the forecasts show at least another year of decreased revenues, and staff is projecting an 18- to 24-month recession.
Assuming a total shutdown through May, Rocha said projections show shortfalls between $15 million to $16 million. “These restrictions are something we’ve never experienced. It has disrupted the economy across the country, state and here in Carlsbad,” Rocha said. “The virus has transformed the way Americans spend their money. We can see the low unemployment rate in California until January. Now, it has spiked up to 7%.” Mayor Matt Hall and Councilwoman Cori Schumacher each said they expect a more serious economic fallout. Hall, referencing the 2008 Great Recession, said the city must develop a tight, conservative budget instead of being reactive. Another challenge is small businesses with $5
million or less in taxable sales are allowed to defer $50,000 in sales tax for up to one year. Rocha said the city has about 1,700 businesses that qualify, which totals $5 million the city would not collect until 2021-22. “We are hoping for more relief for the money deferred or revenue shortfalls,” Rocha said of potential funding from the state or federal sources. The hotel tax is expected to drop significantly as all 45 in the city are closed, Rocha said. New budget estimates, which began in January, are expected to drop by about $10 million. The rebound isn’t expected until 2022-23. “We’re looking at this in steps. If this situation should worsen, we will have to take measures over and above what we’re planning to do today.

Letters to the Editor
A post-pandemic future The effects of this pandemic have already fundamentally altered the global economy and thrown the nation into recession. As we slowly recover from this calamity we have an opportunity to create millions of new jobs and kickstart the national economy by building the infrastructure to transition to green energy. We can formally con-
sider the costs we place on our natural environment, costs that result in climate change that exacerbates the severity of increasingly frequent natural disasters. Now, isn’t it time to take this opportunity to build a better future for the common good of all of us and our descendants? A mechanism to do this is the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act.
The first bipartisan climate pricing bill in Congress, it is revenue neutral and proposes creating 2.1 million new jobs while driving down carbon pollution by more than 40% in twelve years. We can make the future better than the present. Faye Mankowske Encinitas
Prepare for a new kind of economy Dear Editor, It’s time to prepare for a new kind of economy. FDR's New Deal fundamentally changed our economy to recover from the Great Depression. The CCC, WPA and National Industrial Recovery Act got Americans back to work and gave us infrastructure to grow a strong economy. With Covid 19 and the
worsening recession, we again need to fundamentally change our economy to recover and move into the future. Now is the time to build a sustainable economy by transitioning away from fossil fuels. We can put people back to work by transforming our infrastructure to clean energy. We
get there by innovating, tapping solar, wind, hydro technologies and putting a fee on carbon. Something good can come out of this — jobs, improved health, stronger national security and a path to ending climate change. Susan Kobara Carlsbad
Winning the battle against COVID-19 As we grind through the difficult days of the pandemic, I'd like to share some hope. My daughter, the fashion designer, is making protective masks — dyed with turmeric and beet juice, and they are lovely. In every city around the nation, feats of valor, creativity and grace are being accomplished every day. We will win this battle.
This gives me hope: the power of our teamwork and solidarity. People are doing things they’ve never done before. Resilience abounds. And these are just the qualities needed to confront and lick the next pandemic: the looming climate crisis. At this moment, these are just the tools we need to ensure a healthy, livable and prosperous future. From cleaner air in our
cities to reduced water pollution in lakes and oceans to quality clean energy jobs--sourced from limitless supplies of sun and wind. So as we work through the current challenges, let’s take stock of our boundless ingenuity and keep in our sights a future worth fighting for. Dadla Ponizil Encinitas
an Diego maintains the fourth largest homeless population in all of the United States. When people envision a homeless person, they often conceptualize an individual who is dirty, disheveled, not all there, scary. Albeit there are some homeless individuals who may fit this picture, for the most part, that’s a misconception. In truth, there is no singular description that fits the bill and more often than not, a homeless person blends into the common middle class. For many of us, particularly within the middle class, homelessness became a possible reality. As of last week, 6.6 million people filed for unemployment in the United States due to layoffs and furloughs. “[The coronavirus] exposed the tenuousness of an art that cannot be sustained,” John Van Cleef, CEO of Community Resource Center, explained. The concerns surrounding homelessness and the economic stresses we were all facing needed to be addressed. Unfortunately, it took a terrifying pandemic to expose flaws in societal infrastructures. The coronavirus crisis did expose fatal weaknesses in healthcare systems and lit a fire to do more for our homeless population but more than that, the situation brought to the surface another underlying crisis that could no longer be ignored: life was unaffordable, untenable and uncertain overall. “Middle class people are going to feel [the economic effects of the pandemic] real quickly,” Van
Cleef commented. Amidst the swell of the coronavirus outbreak, many found themselves now a part of a population that largely goes unrecognized–the invisible homeless–people who maintain jobs but rely on the good will of friends who offer them a couch to crash on or the comfort of their cars; service industry workers who live paycheck to paycheck and those laid off due to the coronavirus outbreak are also among this category. One recent development is the safe parking lot, an area where those living out of their cars can safely park at night. Earlier this year, the city of Encinitas opened up its own safe parking lot, the first in North County, behind the Leichtag Foundation farming property. Of course, this establishment did not come without pushback from the community first. “A lot of people who live in our communities are fully leveraged and they know they’re living one paycheck away from financial disaster,” Van Cleef pointed out. In areas such as Encinitas, many within that community are so opposed to ideas like safe parking because they do not want to be faced with the reality that they could be living out of their cars in no time. Self-reflection is particularly frightening during a time that feels like we are living in a bad dream. During this current health critical point, Van Cleef, CRC and others are working overtime in “a concentrated effort to ensure we are looking after the homeless and protecting them from the coronavirus crisis.” One solution offered is hotels for the unsheltered
who are asymptomatic. Those who are symptomatic are offered separate hotels. Recent details show around 300 high-risk homeless individuals have been placed into established hotel rooms. The CRC and Interfaith Community Services, Regional Task Force on the Homeless, San Diego Health Department, San Diego County and others have joined forces to navigate protection for the unprotected through this time. Van Cleef pointed out a third area of concentration, the need for rapid rehousing for those escaping domestic abuse, another leading indicator for the homeless population. With the new stay at home orders, abusers are now more stressed and the abused more isolated. Since the upsurge of coronavirus cases, CRC faced an increase in domestic abuse calls, something he said the organization sadly anticipated. The CRC wants to make sure individuals in this predicament know there are resources out there available and ways out of the abuse, even during a pandemic. If you find yourself in a situation where you do need support, CRC, Interfaith Community Services and other organizations offer a plethora of options for aid.

Cyclists ride line between public safety, physical health By Caitlin Steinberg
ENCINITAS — Each weekend, North County plays host to hundreds of cyclists in dozens of groups ranging between five and 50 riders. But with group bike rides uniformly cancelled since the onset of COVID-19, North County cyclists are struggling to adapt to local and state regulations, with some debating the merits and restrictions on cycling during a pandemic. Despite individual rumblings, leadership among cycling clubs and businesses, as well as state and local officials is uniform — no group rides, submit to social distancing measures and respect the law. Swami’s Cycling Club, one of the most recognizable cycling organizations in Southern California, placed a full stop on all group rides as early as midMarch. “Swami’s believes in doing what’s right for the community,” organization President Ryan Meskimen said. “60% of our membership [lives] in North County. The last thing we want to do is frustrate our local communities, especially the ones our rides originate and end in.” Operating in line with CDC guidelines, USA Cycling and the State of California, Swami’s and local

businesses are fully committed to cancelling all group rides until public health conditions improve. While the CDC and State of California openly allow biking alone or with members of one’s household, many cyclists have found themselves pres-
sured by their own peers to stop entirely. As a community, not just in Southern California but around the world, cyclists cannot agree whether continuing to ride during a pandemic is a right to be exercised or a privilege to be sacrificed in the face of
Coronavirus shutdown causing long-term concerns for businesses By Steve Puterski
REGION — Small businesses are starting to feel the long-term anxieties of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many are worried about the impacts of deferments, loan payments and a lack of consumer buying power to continue their life’s work. For Megan McIntyre, Brian Seghers and Gordy Haskett, the long-term math doesn’t work out as 90-day deferments by the state and other municipalities and potential loans may crush small businesses once those non-essential stores are allowed to re-open, but no one knows when it will happen. McIntyre and Seghers each had to temporarily close, while Haskett is doing weekly bake sales for his bakery. All three rent their stores. “It’s kind of challenging … I’m not assuming I open my doors back up and

coronavirus episode we’re all going through,” Fennell said. The annual fair had been set to take place from June 5 through July 5 under the “Heroes, Unite!’’ superhero theme. The “Heroes, Unite!’’ theme will be carried over to the 2021 fair. According to a written
100% of business returns,” McIntyre said. “I can foresee it being six months of trying to catch up.” McIntyre closed her four Carlsbad retail shops, and one in Temecula, several weeks ago. She said piling up debt and expecting customers to return as they did pre-pandemic is unrealistic. She applied for the federal Payroll Protection Plan, although Haskett, who owns Gordy’s Bakery in Encinitas, said he could not because he can’t meet the 75% requirement for payroll for his furloughed employees. McInytre said 25% of the PPP can be used for rent, but in California, rents are much higher than elsewhere in the country. She’s also opened up other lines of credit, but acknowledged climbing out of debt will be challenging. “It’s not even a month,” she said. “The 25% may cov-
er two (stores) for a month and I’ll have to come up with the rest. It’s going to be really hard. Just because they can’t evict me today doesn’t mean they can’t evict me after 90 days. Everyone is nervous.” Seghers, who owns 454 Tattoo and Body Piercing in Encinitas and another tattoo shop in Redlands, said he’s been in contact with Encinitas Councilwoman Kelly Hinze about potential relief from the city. Haskett applied for the Small Business Administration Disaster Relief fund. He said he’s trying not to defer any payments, while being charged 100% for April’s rent. “You’re just burying yourself in debt,” Haskett said. “If I start digging that hole, it’ll be deeper and deeper. You don’t make a lot of money with a small business.”
statement from the fair's organizers, the fair’s theme couldn't be more relevant, paying tribute to medical workers on the front lines of the pandemic. “Now, more than ever, we're acutely aware that some of our very greatest heroes walk among us,” the statement read. He added that staff is considering a much smaller and shorter festival in the
fall, that would include music, entertainment and rides — but without the same magnitude as the fair. “Time will tell … but we’re looking forward to 2021,” Fennell said. “We’ll all get through this together and I’m hoping next year, at this time, we’ll be again approving contracts and having a ribbon-cutting ceremony like we haven’t seen before.”
uncertainty. The level of danger a solo cyclist or any person engaging in outdoor activities poses to their community is still technically undetermined. In an interview with NPR in early April, the World Health Organization
firmly stated that coronavirus is not airborne, sparking disagreements from multiple accredited research institutions and the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine. Lifelong endurance athlete, Mitch Hall, is among those Encinitas residents and cyclists fighting to ride a line of reason between respecting the law and continuing to ride during COVID. "If the science and law demands it, then yes, I will comply," Hall said. “If a guideline is based on fear, rumors, or irrational social pressure then I will find changing my behavior difficult." Hall will continue solo rides, practicing social distancing rules but without a mask or additional PPE until laws demand otherwise. “It’s a balance between honoring the facts and holding to your own personal freedoms. What kind of world do we want to live in, especially when this is over. and what's actually true about this virus? A new world governed by fear or misinformation?” Hall asked. Brent Garrigus, owner of Ride Cyclery in Encinitas, pushed back on San Diego County’s latest restriction on small gatherings. “For it to be illegal for two [non-related] people to stand outside in an open air
environment is a complete violation of our rights,” Garrigus said. “There’s no proof that [would] create a [health] problem… to me that is an overreach by our local governments and municipalities.” Garrigus ensured RIDE Cyclery does not condone large group rides and will remain open in an effort to support the physical and mental health of not just the cycling community but North County in general. Like most things during COVID-19, the road forward for cyclists is unclear. Currently, USA Cycling, the guidepost for businesses and cycling clubs such as Swami’s, has cancelled permits for all sanctioned group rides, events, and races until May 31, 2020.

Solana Beach bans flavored tobacco sales By Lexy Brodt
SOLANA BEACH — In response to the rising popularity of flavored e-cigarettes, the Solana Beach City Council passed an ordinance on April 8, banning the sale and distribution of flavored tobacco products in the city. The ordinance will prohibit the sale of products such as cigars, cigarillos, smokeless tobacco, shisha (hookah tobacco) and the liquid nicotine cartridges used in electronic cigarettes — the use of which is commonly referred to as “vaping.” The ban will take effect in about seven months. The Food and Drug Administration took action early this year to stop the sale and distribution of flavored e-cigarette products that are directly marketed to youngsters, particularly those flavored like fruit or candy. However, the policy did not ban disposable cartridges, or tobacco or menthol-flavored e-cigarettes. The city’s ordinance seeks to prevent youth from “simply switch(ing) to disposable e-cigarettes,” according the staff report. A dozen “speakers” wrote in to opine on the issue — the City Council meeting was conducted virtually due to the constraints of the COVID-19 crisis. Most of the comments were in favor, including those of several locals who have long spoken out against the use of drugs, alcohol and tobacco among area youth. A few letters sent in from out-of-town organizations addressed the potential negative financial impacts on local convenience stores, particularly in conjunction with revenue drops related to the COVID-19 crisis. City Manager Greg Wade said that city staff reached out to area businesses that stood to be affected by the ordinance, and said that none expressed “outright opposition.” “I think there was just some question as to whether or not there’d be a grace period … so that they could stop their orders, get rid of existing stock and just stop selling flavored tobacco products,” Wade said. City Councilwoman Kristi Becker said she was more swayed by the letters written by locals, which were all in support of council approval. She added that stores will have seven months to adjust to the ban. “That gives enough time for the local stores to not only deplete their stock, but hopefully get back to recovery from this emergency period,” she said. Becker mentioned that the ban “is needed much more now” due to the COVID-19 crisis, and the potential added risk that respiratory problems might pose if someone were to catch the virus. The ordinance complements existing rules in the city that bar smoking and the use of e-cigarettes in certain areas.

Carlsbad Unified families help others struggling By Steve Puterski
CARLSBAD — The rain was not going to stop several volunteers from distributing food to families in need. On April 9, Tracey and Jeff Barker put on their fourth food distribution at Carlsbad High School for needy families and students in the Carlsbad Unified School District. Tracey Barker said once the district suspended school attendance and that they were still distributing daily lunches to all kids 18 and under, she knew more would be needed. As a member of the Aviara Oaks Elementary School Parent Teachers Association, she put out a call for help from friends, family and others at the school. The response saw 52 bags of food, but 75 families showed up for the first week, which led Barker to expand to a districtwide call for more donations. “It just completely blew up,” Tracey Barker said. “If you build it they will come. I truly believe everyone wants to help, but some don’t know how to help.” Since mid-March, the Barkers have held three

other donation drives with plans to continue until the stay-at-home orders are lifted. Tracey Barker, though, said the purpose is for district families to donate to
other families in the district struggling to make ends meet. She said her concern when starting this drive, was for the students who are on the free-and-reduced lunch programs and making
sure they have food over the weekend. Each family donates one bag of groceries, which has enough food for several meals. “When this shutdown
started, I was super relieved that they were going to do the free lunches every day,” Barker said of the CUSD program. “But I thought this would be an even harder time for those families.” The program has grown rapidly she said, noting the second week gathered 75 bags. However, 97 families showed up. In the third week, 132 bags were donated for 125 families. On April 9, at least 112 bags of food were donated, Barker said, all while her and Jeff Barker are the typically the only two distributing food. Also, one of Barker’s friends made Easter bags for the families filled with chocolate bunnies and other candy. As for the bags, the more popular items are pasta, sauce, peanut butter and jelly, bread, cheese and milk. Also, Barker added apples, bananas, oranges and avocados. She’s also tracking the schools the families are from in an effort to streamline communication in case they are not reaching families at a specific school. “This is totally families helping families,” Barker said.
Oceanside creates rent deferral program for city’s own tenants By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — City Council approved the creation of a rent deferral programs for the city’s own tenants at its April 8 meeting. City Manager Deanna Lorson recommended that council authorize staff to implement a rent deferral program for tenants that would waive late fees and defer rent for up to three months. The deferred rent amount would then need to be repaid in 12 installments without interest beginning in 2021. The city serves as a landlord to tenants primarily in the harbor but a number of other places throughout town, Lorson noted. This rent deferral program would apply only to these tenants. Council unanimously approved Lorson’s recommendation for the rent deferral program. Additionally, the city has been working to house and shelter its homeless population to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. According to Megan Crooks with the Neighborhood Services Department, the county government has contracted with hotels and motels in the area to provide safe locations for isolation or quarantine for homeless persons as well as residents who are ill and want to seek housing separate from others. Crooks also said the
police department has worked on outreach services with Interfaith Community Services, which has resulted in placing 20 homeless people from Oceanside in those hotel and motel rooms. The city is also using its other programs to help house the homeless during the pandemic as well. “We have rental assistance vouchers specific for homeless persons,
We cannot continue on this pathway for much longer.” Councilman Chris Rodriguez
so if they are identified as being able to be permanently housed and have the desire to do that, a social worker will work with them and utilize one of those vouchers,” Crooks said. “We had 30 and those are all filled and have been assigned.” Crooks said the city has additional vouchers for veterans, persons or families with someone who has diagnosed mental health disorders and referrals from Child Protective Services.
“If we can connect any of the homeless persons to those three areas, we will still utilize those vouchers that we have available to permanently house them,” Crooks said. Council also discussed other ways the city could help ease the financial crisis related to the COVID-19 pandemic during the meeting. Councilmember Christopher Rodriguez proposed that the council write a letter to the county that would advise the county health officials to modify its public health order to allow local jurisdictions to make decisions on what businesses are considered essential. “We cannot continue on this pathway for much longer,” Rodriguez said. “Our local economy, our regional economy and our state economy just cannot handle it.” Rodriguez suggested the city could open some businesses back up, such as restaurants, while still maintaining social distancing practices. “If you go to a restaurant, you’re sitting at every other table,” he said. Though Rodriguez’ motion died for lack of a second, Mayor Peter Weiss said he agrees with the councilmember but suggested first researching what freedom, if any, the city has in terms of getting businesses back to work as soon as possible before sending a letter.

CSUSM professor earns $3M grant for diversity in sciences SAN MARCOS — A Cal State San Marcos psychology professor has earned a $3.2 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to increase diversity in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, the school announced April 10. The NIH grant to Professor Keith Trujillo's will come over a five-year span and establish a program at CSUSM allowing students prepare for graduate studies and careers in the sciences. The goal of the program — the Undergraduate Research Training Initiative for Student Enhancement, or U-RISE — is to develop a diverse pool of undergraduates who earn a degree and transition into and complete biomedical, research-focused higher-degree programs. U-RISE at CSU San Marcos will replace two extant programs under the Office for Research, Training and Education in the Sciences, of which Trujillo directed for more than a decade: Research Initiative for Scientific Enhancement
and Maximizing Access to Research Careers. Those programs have offered academic support, professional development, research opportunities and other activities aimed at helping CSUSM students prepare for graduate studies. “Over the past 20 years, CSUSM has become a leader at increasing diversity in the sciences through funding from the National Institutes of Health,” Trujillo said. “I am excited to be part of the continuing work to prepare students for graduate studies in biomedical and behavioral research so that they can become leaders in their scientific fields.” Trujillo has been a professor at CSUSM since 1994. In 2017, he was one of four faculty members in the 23-campus California State University system to receive the Wang Family Excellence Award for exemplary contributions and achievements that advance the CSU’s mission. — City News Service

Locals fundraise for Encinitas Ranch workers
Pet of the Week
By Hoa Quach
ENCINITAS — When the new coronavirus made its way to San Diego County, prompting mandatory stayat-home orders and business closures, Encinitas resident Joe Dolan didn’t hesitate to start a campaign in support of one group he cared about: The folks behind the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course. The longtime Encinitas resident launched a GoFundMe campaign to fundraise money for the employees of his beloved course. The fundraiser collected more than $9,000 in donations, which were distributed to recipients on Good Friday. “This was merely a personal idea that struck me during the uncertainty of COVID-19 and the financial impact that it caused on most of the employees of Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, also known as ‘The Ranch,’” Dolan said. Dolan, who has been playing at the golf course since 1998 and joined the men’s team in 2016, said he’s been touched by how the community has rallied behind the campaign. Most importantly, he’s touched by the support the community has offered the Encinitas Ranch employees. “It’s truly heartwarming,” said Dolan, who launched the GoFundMe campaign on March 25. “For almost 100 donations in seven days, it’s shown me what friendship and caring personalities can accomplish.”

Dolan, who has lived in Encinitas since 1999 with wife, Arlette, and their two children, said the busy golf course is a gem in San Diego County that he doesn’t foresee closing as a result of the pandemic. However, he wanted to supply a bit of comfort to the employees who aren’t working at the moment. “It’s one of the cornerstones of a very vibrant area of North San Diego County,” Dolan said. “Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, a member of JC Golf Resorts, has routinely headed the public recreation leaderboard for ‘Places to Play Golf’ in a tourist-rich area.” Dan Vahalla, one of many donors of the campaign, said he still remembers the day the golf course was built. “I’m an avid golfer and have been a resident of Encinitas for over 30 years, even before the golf course was built,” said Vahalla,
who is also captain of the men’s golf team. “When the course went in, I thought I died and went to heaven.” Although he misses playing rounds with his friends, Valhalla said he’s heartbroken about the temporary closure. “I miss the golf, but more importantly on a larger scale, all the people that have been affected,” Vahalla said. “I’m hoping my small contribution can help someone over there at some level. The folks at Encinitas Ranch are wonderful people.” Dolan hopes those wonderful people behind the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course know they have a community full of friends who are there for them. “(The ultimate goal of the fundraising campaign is) to show our friends who work at The Ranch during the hardship of being furloughed that we’re thinking of them with these simple donations,” Dolan said.

Carlsbad schools again honored for broadcast journalism programs By Steve Puterski
CARLSBAD — The dynasties continue to pile up awards for two of the country’s best student broadcast journalism programs. Carlsbad High School and Valley Middle School were tapped with the Students Television Network’s Award of Excellence on April 7. CHSTV won the “Daily, Live” category and VMS took home the top spot for best “Middle School,” according to Doug Green, who teaches both programs and is a former California Teacher of the Year. This is the 13th year the CHS program has been honored with the Award of Excellence and the ninth win for VMS, according to the Carlsbad Unified School District. “Congratulations to VMSTV and CHSTV for winning the Broadcast Excellence Awards for Best Middle School and Best Daily Live Show (respectively),” said Nancy Held Loucas, Student Television Network CEO. “VMSTV and CHSTV are outstanding examples of scholastic journalism and they inspire our schools to exceed expectations.” The VMS and CHS broadcast journalism program is a career pathway for students in seventh through 12th grades, who are inter-

ested in careers where they will have an opportunity to create, communicate, collaborate and innovate. The award ceremony was scheduled for midMarch, but CUSD Superintendent Ben Churchill “pulled the plug,” on allowing the Carlsbad students to attend, Green said. He added, it was the right call as hundreds of students, if not more, from around the country traveled to Washington, D.C. for the convention, but were turned away as the city shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The STN then announced the winners several days later. Green said while it’s old hat for him on winning the most prestigious award in student journalism, he reminds himself it’s new to the students. “Every year it’s new kids winning the award,” he

added. “It’s the best of the best. It was great timing because I think the kids needed a bit of a pick-me-up.” Although students are at home doing the online learning, Green said the broadcasts have not stopped. His students produce news broadcasts from their homes and release their work every Thursday. Still, his students are riding high from winning the meaningful award. “Winning the Award of Excellence is incredibly motivating that our hard work at VMSTV was recognized,” said Gabe Benson, an 8th Grader at VMS. “Producing an award-winning show is motivation to continue to take risks, never settling for average, but striving for excellence,” added Shaylynn Foley, a senior executive producer at CHSTV.

OCEANSIDE — A councilmember is giving his salary back to the city in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Councilmember Chris Rodriguez announced that he was forfeiting his salary at the end of March. Council members are elected officials and considered part-time employees. The annual salary of a council member in Oceanside is $33,993 according to city records, with members receiving about $2,832.75 per month. Rodriguez said that he is forfeiting his salary until further notice. He explained that the easiest way for him and the city to do this, is for him to continue receiving the payments but then sending back a check in the amount he receives to the city, which will go into the general fund. Rodriguez made the decision to forfeit his salary as a way to show he stands with the businesses and residents who aren’t making any income at this time. “I’ve talked to so many local residents and businesses and they have zero coming in,” Rodriguez said.
“Hearing all these stories, I felt really guilty… I want to give back and stand with them.” Rodriguez said he is “blessed” with his career as a real estate agent and didn’t feel right taking money from the city. He added that although it isn’t much, his salary could help with costs such as paying for meals as the city received approved RODRIGUEZ $400,000 to cover meals for residents over the next six weeks. “It’s little but it’s still something,” he said. The real story, Rodriguez said, is how the city has partnered with local businesses to get through the financial crisis stemming from the public health crisis. He also noted the potential $3 million relief fund for small businesses that staff is currently working on as another way the city is trying to help its businesses stay afloat. “I’m proud of Oceanside,” Rodriguez said. “We’re gonna get through this.”

Local nonprofit reports surge in domestic violence calls By Lexy Brodt
REGION – The state’s shelter in place order aims to flatten the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic, subduing the virus’s spread in order to avoid overwhelming hospitals. But the action has had its fair share of unintended consequences, such as leaving domestic violence victims in isolation with their abusers. A nonprofit based in Encinitas, the Community Resource Center (CRC) hosts a 24/7 emergency call line for victims of domestic violence in North County, allowing them to connect to potential counseling services or housing options. According to the center’s CEO, John Van Cleef, such calls have been on the rise in recent weeks. “Abusers and those who experience abuse are more socially isolated,” Van Cleef told The Coast News. “Their experience in the home is compounded by additional stressors, and I would typically say most abusers don’t have really good coping strategies to deal with stress, so they resort to abuse.” He called it the “most imperfect mix of circumstances” — in which those who are already isolated are even further distanced from relief due to being stuck at home. At an April 1 city council meeting in Encinitas, Van Cleef said the center

has been anticipating this uptick – as have other entities in the county and beyond. In late March, the San Diego County District Attorney’s office released a statement to address this reality, and connect victims to resources. “We acknowledge the necessity of Governor Newsom’s order, but want to be sure we provide a lifeline to those who may be at increased risk of violence at the hands of an intimate partner,” said District Attorney Summer Stephan. “Additional stressors such as losing a job and kids at home due to school closures can be triggers for domestic violence. We want people who are seeing warning signs of abuse
or who are being abused to know that we stand ready to help them and that they shouldn’t suffer in silence.” Local law enforcement agencies and entities like the Community Resource Center are adapting in tandem to help victims in these situations. Van Cleef said the nature of the center’s work hasn’t necessarily changed, but they have had to acclimate to a higher volume of cases and a new set of needs. “The demand for services is increasing,” he said. “We’re looking at the bandwidth of staff and support we provide and making sure we’re being nimble and quick in responding to the services people ask for.” The center focuses on
both helping domestic violence victims and the homeless population in North County – although Van Cleef points out that there is a key overlap in these populations. Domestic violence is the third leading cause of homelessness, he said, and 24% of homeless individuals are on the streets due to domestic violence-related reasons. Van Cleef said the crisis is both exacerbating and drawing attention to the issues both of these populations face, particularly in terms of housing. “The COVID-19 crisis certainly highlights the vulnerability of our unsheltered homeless populations that existed before this started, and it certainly highlights their vulnerability now, and the need for emergency sheltering and long-term permanent housing solutions,” he said. “Because at the end of the shelter in place order, we still have the same shortage of shelter beds and affordable housing that we had before.” The center has an emergency shelter that serves as a safe home for victims, called Carol’s House, but that shelter is currently full. The organization is now working to arrange hotel vouchers for victims in need, as well as homeless individuals. Van Cleef said the algorithm for that process has
changed during the past month. The organization typically provides hotel vouchers for finite periods of time – for example, to house victims in the time period between signing a lease for a new permanent housing situation and a move-in date. Now, these hotel vouchers are taking on new meaning – as cities rush to house homeless populations to help stymy the spread of COVID-19. The center has been working with the city of Encinitas to distribute more vouchers for this exact purpose – the city is pitching in $90,000 every two weeks to fund this effort. “From that, we are then going to begin case management about working with them on their housing readiness, and ability to move into permanent housing,” said Van Cleef. The center’s hotline continues to be a tool to assess and “triage” victims – some of the calls are referred to local law enforcement, or individuals are linked to case managers for rapid rehousing. The organization also provides counseling and therapy services, which are now offered through the web. “Making sure that we’re adapting our delivery of service to a tele-environment is part of how we’re responding along the way too,” Van Cleef said. Beyond their contact
with victims, the center is adapting their prevention education programs – aimed to “help relationship violence stop before it even starts.” These programs are specifically geared toward youth, and as such, the center has been working with local schools to make sure these programs are available online. Starting on May 1, they’ll be offering a training program with domestic violence prevention educators. “We’re also going to be modifying that curriculum with an online web link, so we can help create awareness about the reality of domestic violence in this climate, as well as tuning people into how they can be aware of and appropriately respond to concerns they have around domestic violence that they might be suspecting (among) their neighbors or friends,” said Van Cleef. At the Encinitas City Council meeting, Van Cleef urged residents to be attentive and aware of the domestic violence-related struggles their neighbors might be facing during this time. If you are looking to get in touch with the Community Resource Center’s toll-free 24-hour domestic violence crisis hotline, call: 1-877-633-1112. For more information,

Fifth-graders donate lunch to Tri-City nurses By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — Fifth graders from South Oceanside Elementary took their generosity a step further when they donated their reward, a catered lunch from Olive Garden, for raising the most money for cancer research, to hospital staff at Tri-City Medical Center. For the past two years, South Oceanside Elementary has been raising for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Called the Pasta for Pennies fundraiser, classes compete to raise the most money and earn a catered lunch from Olive Garden, the fundraiser’s sponsor. This year, students in Michael Potts’ fifth-grade class raised the most — a whopping $800 — and earned the lunch. “That’s fifth graders for you,” Potts said. “Very competitive.” So competitive, in fact, that Potts’ class this year doubled the amount of money his class raised last year. Students participated by bringing in spare change. Potts explained that many of his students don’t have a lot of money to give away in the first place, yet they were still going through their piggy banks at home to donate all they could. South Oceanside Elementary altogether raised $7,500 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society over the past two years. Before the class could enjoy their lunch, however,

schools closed as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak — and it was looking like they would stay closed for quite some time. Potts considered the options: students could wait until next year to enjoy the lunch, but it would have been difficult to get them all back for such an occasion considering the students would have gone on to middle school for sixth grade. Potts then asked his class during one of their Google Meet sessions if they wanted to donate their lunch to those working on the “front lines” of the pandemic: nurses. “They immediately jumped on it,” Potts said. On April 7, Potts picked up the food from Olive Garden and delivered it to the emergency department at Tri-City. The meal was com-
plete with breadsticks, salad and pasta. Heidi Benson, a nurse in the emergency department, said she was impressed by the generosity of Potts and his students. She first received an e-mail from Potts asking about the lunch donation with the subject line reading “Nurses are heroes.” Benson said tensions have been high for staff at the hospital throughout the pandemic due to the unknown future and staff’s fear of what they could be taking home to their families. “Having the lunch delivered got the nurses outside of their world and helped them see what other people are going through,” Benson said. It also gave staff a chance to come together for a breather, as well as a bite.
Potts worked with Kathy Sellers, general manager at the Olive Garden in Carlsbad, to make the lunch happen. Potts commended Sellers and the restaurant for being willing to give at a time when they are experiencing a loss of business and revenue due to the crisis. “It’s the least we could do,” Sellers said. “We treat everybody like family and (the nurses) are on the front lines, and it really wasn’t anything big compared to what’s going on.” South Oceanside Elementary Principal David Morrow is proud of the students’ generousity, but he isn’t all that surprised by it, based on what the community there is like. “That really fits the character of South Oceanside,” Morrow said. “It’s a very giving community.”
Encinitas commission advances next phase of plastics initiative By Caitlin Steinberg
ENCINITAS — During its April 9 meeting, the city’s Environmental Commission unanimously approved the third phase of the Encinitas Plastics Initiative, sending the new recommendation to the City Council for approval. Phase Three expands previous restrictions by prohibiting the distribution and retail sale of polystyrene food service utensils, egg cartons, to-go boxes, packaging materials, and products not encased in
hard plastic such as coolers, ice chests or similar containers. Previous stages limited the distribution of plastic straws and utensils to request-only, as well as banned the distribution and sales of plastic bottled beverages on city property and at city-sponsored events. Commission members discussed the implementation of Phase Three and how it would impact small businesses, retailers, and local schools.
Among the clarifications was whether large box retailers, such as Target or Smart and Final, would be among those restricted from selling plastic utensils or Styrofoam containers — the answer being yes. During the meeting, Environmental Commissioner June Honsberger questioned whether local schools would continue to be exempt from the initiative. “As a local schoolteacher, I would… support not exempting our schools,” Hons-
berger said. “[They] need a push in the right direction and… contribute a lot of [waste] every single day.” The commission acknowledged that originally public schools were exempt from the initiative due to a perceived lack of regulatory oversight and many already have individual recycling programs. Phase Three of the Encinitas Plastics Initiative will be sent to City Council for discussion and possible approval at the upcoming April 22 meeting.

most surfers to ride one wave. I recall the number being around 40 surfers, all riding straight off in the whitewater. I figured we could easily top that number and together with shop owner, Ken Eichenberg, set out to beat the Aussies at their own game. Word of the event was spreading so quickly that we decided to hold it not in summer, but in May and on a weekday. Good thing, as there were still hundreds of
umnists, two major radio stations and the then-popular variety TV shows “You Asked for It” and “That’s Incredible.” Having to choose one, I went with “Incredible,” which turned out to be the wrong decision, since their main camera malfunctioned and the show never aired. None of that mattered on the select morning, however, as we stood at the ready with roughly 100 surfers about to hit the water.

In 1979, I was running Cardiff Surf & Sport, a little surf shop on the beach while working as California correspondent to the Australian surfing publication, Tracks. When Tracks hit my mailbox one morning there was a cover photo with a bunch of surfers riding a tiny wave. The shot was of a world record set for the
surfers, tourists, media and assorted onlookers in Cardiff that day. Talk about going viral, this thing swept the nation with news of the coming event being advertised as far afield as the New York Times.

Accompanying local surfer stars like Craig Hollingsworth and Greg Mungal were Malibu legend Lance Carson, surf photographer Jeff Divine and international pro surfers Peter Townend and Michael Tomson. Keep in mind that we had not secured a beach permit and so expected the
police to be down there any moment to break up the fun. Thank goodness they never showed. I was on the beach screaming through a tinny megaphone while Eichenberg manned a surf kayak and shouted to keep everyone lined up. I don’t know how many people were in the water waiting for the wave that day, but estimates go as high as 100. If you’ve ever tried getting 100 surfers to do anything at the same time, you understand my problem. After several false starts, a few dozen dings, and some bruised shins, we again lined everyone up. I saw a wave, counted down through the megaphone and somehow, with Eichenberg’s help, prompted the majority of the crew onto one little closed-out wave. Someone counted 84, but the official count was close to 54. Regardless, we were the new champs. I sent a letter to the Guinness Book of World Records and received a reply that they were only interested in events that were somehow ongoing. Maybe next time we would need to add hotdogs to the salty mix. Since that time there have been numerous world record attempts for most surfers on one wave. I think South Africa currently holds the title with over 400 people moving toward shore in a straight line. I have no intention of trying again, especially not since social distancing ordinances fell into place. As for keeping your distance, my hope is that the suggestion forever affects the surfing world. There is such a thing as too close. Hey, my wave!

FORMER MODEL and fashion designer Nadia Kuznetsova has created a jewelry brand, “NadineByNadia.” Courtesy photo
Designer creates bold jewelry brand By Tawny McCray
DEL MAR — Del Mar resident Nadia Kuznetsova was inspired to start her own jewelry brand after a decade in the modeling business. The brand NadineByNadia launched last January and has quickly gained attention- it was featured at a New York Fashion Week runway show, for Oxford Fashion Studio, in February. Kuznetsova is originally from Russia and moved to the states with her mom, dad and older sister when she was 7. They moved to New York and then eventually to New Jersey. When she was 12 her mom took her to a modeling audition she had seen in the Classified Ads. She CROP was.93 soon signed by the Wilhelmina .93 and spent the next ten 4.17 years modeling. “That exposed me to 4.28 the whole fashion industry,” she said. “I didn’t really want to continue (modeling) but I loved the fashion industry part. That’s where all of this stems from. I got into making clothes and it just kind of evolved little by little into jewelry.” She said she started making things for herself and then people started buying it and it turned into NadineByNadia. The brand name comes from her real first name, Nadezhda. “My friends from high school call me Nadine and everybody I met after calls me Nadia,” she explains. Kuznetsova, 35, describes her jewelry as distinctive and bold, and says she uses genuine leather and a lot of chains, spikes, and studs in her designs. “I make everything by hand myself from my home studio,” she said. “I make it once and that’s it, there’s only one piece like that.” She says she tries to make every piece versatile
so that people can wear it many different ways. “So you can make it into a bracelet, or you can wear it as a belt, or you can wrap it around your neck, or use it as a hair piece, like get creative with it,” she said. She gets inspiration from many sources: online, her travels, and even from walking around Home Depot. “Home Depot actually has a lot of variety of different kinds of chains, there’s a lot of cool things you can find in hardware stores, believe it or not,” she said. “It’s not even intentional I could be going to Home Depot to pick up a screw driver but then I’ll see something and I’m like oh my God this would make such a cool necklace. It just kind of happens.” Her collection of jewelry includes spike earrings, leather geometric earrings, a Cleopatra necklace, a spiderweb spiked necklace, Cleopatra cuff bracelets, a studded cuff bracelet, and a whip and chain necklace. Prices range from $25 to $350. She says she’s influenced by the hippie fashions of the 70s, and the punk rock styles of the 80s and 90s, and counts French designer and businesswoman Coco Chanel as a huge icon. “I love her because she broke a lot of boundaries and she really didn’t care what people thought,” she said. “She invented the little black dress, she was the first woman to wear slacks when wearing pants for women was unheard of.” Kuznetsova says the funny thing is she doesn’t even wear jewelry. “I’m really not a jewelry person,” she said. “When I get dressed up and I’m going out I do put on my jewelry. But like on a dayto-day basis, I just wear my engagement ring.”

COVID-19 safety in construction While millions of Americans hunker down and stay home during the coronavirus outbreak, the construction industry is one of the essential sectors. As workers head to job sites, COVID-19 safety is also essential as many construction sites consider the jobs that can be done safely. It’s important to know that all of our associations believe that all construction should be allowed during the pandemic and offer numerous resources in an effort to keep workers safe while keeping construction going. Infrastructure projects are complex. When a slowdown occurs, it can impact the entire supply chain from materials to end users. Public projects could also have potential longer-term economic repercussions on taxpayers. This is why it’s important that vital infrastructure projects not be left unat-
tended during this crisis. This sentiment remains true during COVID-19 as the industry takes great efforts to manage disruptions to projects and infrastructure productivity. RebuildSoCal supports the thousands of union workers on the job and applauds them for their focused attention to safety practices during this health crisis.
elping friends has never been more important and Tony Finn gets it. “It’s about giving people a chance to have some joy, some fun and get out and exercise,” Finn said. “And do something that is good for the world.” Bike for Humanity is global in scope, but local to the core and Finn is all in. Finn, of Encinitas, isn’t just a spoke in the wheel for Bike for Humanity on April 25. He’s a driving force in joining with his buddy, Bill Walton, to raise dough for victims of coronavirus and health care professionals combating it. “Without Tony, we are nothing but a flat tire,” said Walton, the basketball legend. The pals put their heads together on how to assist during this national emergency. “I was watching the news and was freaked out and bummed out at the same time,” Finn said. “I was like, ‘Man, I can’t sit here and do nothing,’ so I called Bill and said, ‘What can we do, man?’ ” With Walton’s affection for cycling and Finn’s vigor and business connections, Bike for Humanity was born. Participants are invited to pedal their bikes, wherever, for two hours on April 25. But only in places where they can practice social distancing, doing so in a manner that recognizes the 6-foot-11 Walton with riders asked to stay separated an extra 11 inches. “Hopefully they can walk out their front door and start riding their bike,”
Mantra for our times: One day at a time F soul or the majority of the time I have been placing columns in the community’s beloved Coast News, I have been encouraging readers to go and check out landmarks and visit areas of interest or businesses I have found with a spiritual slant. With the current restrictions on travel and the need to distance, many businesses have ramped up into the virtual world. They are offering classes, encouragement, products, delivery, and opportunities to give back to the community. They are also asking the community to help support them so that when we get to the other side of this global event that has put us in sequester, they will still be there for us. And that includes this paper. “One day at a time,” a famous cliche from 12step programs, seems to be the ultimate mantra for our current reality. Along with acceptance. A lot of acceptance. Powerlessness also comes to mind. Surrender. These, along with healthy spiritual practices of prayer and meditation to stay centered and devout in

Susan Sullivan our knowing that “this too shall pass.” The truth is that none of us knows what is going on, and we never really did. Oh, we had our set schedules and control over our own orbits as we meshed with societal norms. Now that we have had our wings clipped and are locked in our respective cages, we come to find out; we are just fumbling toward ecstasy. The pursuit of happiness. Life, liberty...freedom. All the things we find now that we may have taken mostly for granted. Even picking up a Coast News. I have found that I had three hobbies: eating at restaurants, shopping at non-essential stores, and touching my face. I have also found that I was exhausted, and I needed this break — not only from my social life but from the rat race of life.
Before I moved to Mexico several years ago, I had reached a high status in my real estate business. It became too much for me to maintain unless I wanted to become a machine. I longed for the day when I could toss my cell phone into the Pacific Ocean. I did go to that other extreme for a time while living south of the border, and it took a long time to get off the treadmill of the fast-paced lifestyle of a high roller. It was amazing to experience a more straightforward, slower pace of life. I found a piece of heaven on earth during my time there. When I moved back, it didn’t take long to get right back on that treadmill. I etched those experiences that touched my consciousness, those moments and experiences that brought me joy. Right now, I can feel myself sitting in the sun overlooking the ocean, just as I can visualize myself at the SRF gardens. Or finding magic in my own backyard today. It’s how I hold on to the good and go with the flow of life. So my advice to you now, as we are all going
through the same thing, is to enjoy this time. Enjoy being at home and putzing around — quiet in your thoughts and communing with the God of your understanding. Finding your real purpose in life isn’t in a crowded shopping mall. It’s found in quiet contemplation. Be still and know. Seek first the kingdom. The rest shall be added. Can you wait for it? Can you know and trust that the best is yet to be? Can you visualize it and feel it into being true for you? Our thoughts create our reality. Change your thinking, change your life. It’s always been about perception. Be safe and be well, and most of all, be patient, kind and compassionate to yourself and others. We are all trudging the same road now. Find your piece of heaven. Take the time to appreciate this short life we’ve been given to live. It truly is a beautiful life. It’s going to be okay. I love you all. For the full version of this column, see thecoastnews.com
sports talk jay paris Finn said. “The whole concept is you are apart but we are all together spiritually in the universe for humanity.” While Walton has the reach, both literally and figuratively, to get the concept rolling, it’s Finn’s acumen that is equally important. Finn, 57, is considered the godfather of a San Diego pastime after starting Liquid Force wakeboards. He’s also woke about what’s needed to battle coronavirus. “Tony knows all FINN there is to know about the groove,” Walton said. “He invented the sport of wake boarding. He has ridden that big wave to the pinnacle of success. Now with Bike for Humanity, Tony has created the biggest wave of all—just for us, to ride all the way to the promised land.” Bike for Humanity is free to all. But after watching your wheels rotate, Finn and Walton are hopeful kindness follows. Riders donating $25 receive a medal, while those contributing $50 also get a Bike for Humanity T-Shirt. For $250, generous riders also receive a signed thank you card from Wal-
ton and are entered into a prize drawing. At $5,000, cyclists are flown to San Diego on an all-expenses paid excursion to pedal with Walton, someone who always rides high in the saddle. For those unable to disengage the kick stand — think bad weather or bad timing — they can donate as well. “People are super-duper excited about it,” said Finn, who owns events. com and is also involved in the San Diego Sports Incubator, which encourages sports entrepreneurs. “Everything is so freaking negative, we decided to inject some positiveness and joy into this horrible situation by helping all these people at the same time,” Finn said. “That was what the message is and it is definitely resonating with folks.” Walton, whose affection for his bike rivals his devotion to the Grateful Dead, doesn’t hesitate to sing Finn’s praises. “Tony has a heart, spirit and soul, that is a combination of a perfect inspirational sunrise, an ever-bubbling cauldron of kindness and generosity, followed by a celebratory sunset, in recognition of a job well done,” he said. Job No. 1 is ridding the world of coronavirus through a ride for all ages. Those eager to lend a hand, and possibly their legs, can register at bikeforhumanity.com. Ride on!

Rock Church helps repair masks for health care workers By Tigist Layne
SAN MARCOS — The Rock Church and the San Diego County Office of Emergency Services (OES) are leading an initiative to repair expired N95 masks to be used by health care workers. In the wake of severe shortages of medical supplies in hospitals across the country, volunteers in San Diego are showing up to help repair the elastic bands on 300,000 masks that had been in county storage. “We’re very involved in serving the needs of the community and we have an ongoing relationship with the OES to meet those needs,” said Mickey Stonier, assistant pastor at the Rock Church. “So, when the OES and the health department came to the realization that they had 300,000 N95 masks in need of repair, they immediately asked us to mobilize volunteers for an essential service to the county.” According to the OES, these N95 masks are beyond the manufacturer’s date, but once the eroding
elastic bands are replaced, they will be fully functional and safe for health care professionals. “These respirators have been approved for use by the Centers for Disease Control,” said Craig Sturak, a spokesperson for the OES. “With new bands, these masks will be used during the current COVID-19 response to protect health care workers as appropriate.” Currently, the Rock Church sees up to 200 volunteers a day at both of the project’s locations in Point Loma and San Marcos. Volunteers at each site are required to adhere to guidelines concerning health screenings, social distancing and wearing masks and gloves. There are also sanitizing stations located throughout both workspaces. “The response has been overwhelming,” Stonier said. “In fact, we have been contacted by other counties that have a million masks that need the same repairs. So, we’re helping other counties follow our example.”

Longtime Carlsbad writer, columnist debuts first novella The end result of that writing project is “Eli and Jane.” “My greatest hope would be that after reading people feel appreciative of the more awkward phases of their life that led them to where they are,” Woldt said. “However, that depends on what stage of life the reader is at. The reactions I’ve gotten from people have varied widely depending on where they are at and what they’ve experienced in their own lives.” Woldt — and online reviewers — said readers will appreciate “Eli and Jane” because of the personalities of the characters. “More than they are unique they are relatable,” Woldt said. “Eli and Jane are both, independently, at a point in their lives where they’ve gotten off the track they were at. I think most people can relate to a mo-
ment in their life where things were off, and weren’t sure what to do or direction to take next. This story is about that point where they are in the middle of the pause, and beginning to work their way out.” But, the book isn’t just another story about a character who hits a crossroad. Woldt delves deep into developing his cast — so much so that he felt passionate enough to publish his work for the first time. “By writing each character in their entirety separately I was able to really focus on their individual experiences, and feelings to give them a unique voice,” Woldt said. “The reader may identify more with Eli or Jane, but it is likely that someone in their life reminds them of the other.” Woldt adds that real locations are added through-
out the plot to give readers a more personal connection to the plot. “All of the locations in the book are real places which allows the reader to really experience a great swath of America,” Woldt said. “I’ve made similar travels quite a few times, and I only realized while writing how connected our emotional memories are to the places they occurred be it a beautiful national park, coffee shop or a rest stop on the side of the highway.” Although it took years for Woldt to find the courage to share his writing, the Carlsbad Village resident who lives in the beachside city with wife, Trina, said he won’t stop sharing anytime soon. “I think there may be more to Eli and Jane’s story still to come,” Woldt said. “I am currently laying out a
book of poetry and photography that I’ve been amassing for about 20 years, and just finished a full length revenge novel set in a San Diego-like locale.” Woldt, who works as a food and beverage consultant, said he’s also working on projects surrounding the hospitality industry. For now, he hopes the public will pick up his book and find joy in his characters. He’s also thankful for those who helped him along his writing journey. “If I didn’t have some smart people, like my wife, telling me it was time I would probably still be editing,” Woldt said. “Despite my fears, sharing this book with people has been really rewarding, and knowing that people are invested in Eli and Jane gives me great joy.” “Eli and Jane” can be purchased on Amazon.com.

An early lover of literature, Woldt said he indulged in classics such as “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” But it wasn’t until recently that Woldt decided to share his writing with the world. Woldt is the author of the recently published novella “Eli and Jane,” a page-turning story about two people finding new paths in their lives and also finding each other.

‘Godfather of Green’ reflects on Earth Day in memoir By Steve Puterski
CARLSBAD — Fifty years ago, a global movement was born, and one Carlsbad resident played a big role. Jerry Yudelson, known as the Godfather of Green, is celebrating the 50th anniversary of Earth Day with his new book, “The Godfather of Green: An Eco-Spiritual Memoir” on his life pushing for sustainability. As a young student at the California Institute of Technology, Yudelson, now 76, was pulled into the world of activism and the intersection of sustainability, politics and more. He and several of his classmates created Earth Day as a way to bring awareness to what was happening with the planet. It led to a life filled with pursuing alternative options to fossil fuels and reimaging the country’s infrastructure and individual lifestyles on so many levels. “The whole country was in turmoil and I was looking for something that I could be for, rather than against,” Yudelson said of the late 1960s. “I eventually was an environmental consultant in northern

California and that was the start of things.” His book, meanwhile, is a reflection on a life spent championing a cause he believed in. It touches on his spiritual journey, which was lifted by an Indian meditation master who transformed Yudelson’s life purpose. Yudelson’s experiences
Do this, not that: Best way to help health care workers By Kelli Kyle
REGION — With cases of novel coronavirus rising daily in San Diego County, health care workers are diligently treating current cases and preparing for ones expected to hit in the near future. Their efforts aren’t going unnoticed — communities across the county have come together to show appreciation for these workers in different ways. But, according to Dr. Kevin Shaw, an ICU doctor at Scripps Hospital in Encinitas, specializing in pulmonary disease, some of these gestures could do more harm than good. A big one is food donations. “If somebody happens to be infectious and has contaminated the boxes or the food or the packaging, and they bring that in, you could be potentially exposing a whole unit full of nurses or doctors or therapists or nutritionists all at the same time,” Shaw explained. The problem is, he says, that with so many asymptomatic carriers, the staff has no way of knowing if the virus was in fact exposed to that particular tray of treats. As one of the lead doctors working with current COVID-19 patients, Shaw and his team are constantly focused on keeping healthy so they can prepare to take on more cases. “It's very challenging, because we are truly resource-limited, and all the stories and online petitions that people are seeing about PPE (personal protective equipment) being short is 100% true,” Shaw said. So while outside cookie trays aren’t so helpful, donated personal protective
A15

equipment really comes in handy. After donated items get dropped off, they remain untouched for several days, which dramatically reduces the risk of any coronavirus being left on the materials. That’s why homemade cloth face masks and face shields are proving so helpful for medical professionals. In Scripps Ranch, Bob Ilko, president of the Scripps Ranch Civic Association, rallied himself and others to use 3D printers to make face shields for hospitals across the country. “I think we're way over 1,300 face shields,” Ilko said. Shaw and his team said these donated shields are incredibly useful. “When you're in a room with somebody who has coronavirus, especially if you're doing high risk procedures and people are in there coughing, you need something in front of your eyes,” Shaw said. “So this is a big, clear shield that protects your entire face, chin, neck and eyes … and this is all from the community.” Hospital workers appreciate all the love they’ve received from their communities, but many agree that the best way to support them is to just stay home. When people attend large family gatherings and work meetings, they risk contracting the virus from an asymptomatic carrier — and that, according to Shaw, is what will keep the hospitals filling up with COVID-19 patients. Social distancing works, he says, and he encourages San Diegans to stick with it. “The best way you can help your front-line health care workers is to comply with staying home,” he said.
at CalTech and growing up in the 1960s led him down to the intersection of internal peace and working to help others. In college, he was awakened to much more of the world and was drawn to environmentalism. His efforts have helped spearhead the global movement leading to new technologies generating power in cleaner ways than fossil fuels. For example, he said, 70% to 80% of all new electricity capacity added to the grid is created by wind and solar power. “We’ve won that battle,” Yudelson said. “The only sensible investment today is renewable energy.” Even 30 years ago, Yudelson was raising alarm bells about the climate crisis and what governments must do to protect the planet and its resources. His career landed him as the head of the state’s solar energy program under former Gov. Jerry Brown. “I tried to build an alternative energy industry to get us off oil,” Yudelson said. “Forty years later, it’s happening. When you start doing it, you never think it’s going to take forever.” Later, he became in-
volved with the building green movement to design more sustainable buildings. One of the country’s foremost experts, Yudelson wrote a dozen books on the subject and slowly those processes have become incorporated with new building designs and standards. His memoir, meanwhile, is a deep looking into his inner journey and his environmental work. “The hard part is we got this carbon problem,” Yudelson said. “Since I was born, 80% of all the excess carbon has been added to the atmosphere. In the last 30, 50% of all excess carbon has been added. Thirty years is when we got the first real warning.”

Local initiative helps feed health workers By Lexy Brodt
DEL MAR – Restaurants in North County and beyond are hurting due to the spread of COVID-19, many relying solely on take-out service to keep business going amidst California’s shelter in place order. Jen Grove, executive director of Del Mar Village Association (DMVA), has found a creative way to both support restaurants in Del Mar, and lend a hand to healthcare workers “on the frontlines” of the corona virus pandemic. “I know (the restaurants) are all struggling,” Grove said. “They’re my friends, they’re people I’ve worked with every day for many years…I want to keep them vital through this.” Called Fuel the Frontline San Diego, the initiative embraces the proverbial two-birds-with-one-stone by purchasing meals from local restaurants suffering from state-mandated closures, and delivering the fresh food to nurses and doctors at San Diego hospitals. Inspired by similar “Fuel the Frontline” initiatives throughout the country, Del Mar Village Association has jumpstarted the first such effort in San

By the by, she and her husband share our home and they already own three cats. She, without a shred of shame, admitted she had already signed up at three different local shelters for that very thing and was bringing home a dog next week. That one fell through. Just as well, I thought, and rather forgot all about it until she casually mentioned she was off to pick up a pair of puppies. They needed to be in pairs for companionship and comfort, it seems. I steeled myself for two and off she went. She brought home three.

In the meantime, from Google Arts & Culture and the National Park Service , there are immersive (and free) guided tours through five parks at “The Hidden Worlds of the National Parks.” Released in 2016 to honor the National Park System’s centennial celebration, the tours include Kenai Fjords in Alaska; Hawaii Volcanoes National Park; New Mexico’s Carlsbad Caverns; Utah’s Bryce Canyon; and Florida’s Dry Tortugas. During this countrywide quarantine, we are learning to slow down and take notice of the small things – like the sounds of animals and birds. Check

In a normal year, there would be thousands of San Diego County residents heading to Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, the second largest state park in the country. The coronavirus, however, has forced the town of Borrego Springs, located in the park, to discourage visitors from coming. According to one resident, this year’s crop of flowers is no Super Bloom, but there still are plenty of flowers and blooming cactus. See them, as well as award-worthy landscapes, on Anza-Borrego Foundation’s Facebook page.

businesses. Randy Gruber, a chef and restauranteur who owns both Americana and Elixir in the heart of Del Mar, said he is “very proud and honored” to be among the 11 businesses participating in the initiative. Since California restaurants were ordered to halt their sit-down dining services in March, Gruber has been working in the kitchen seven days a week with just one other employee, for pick-up service only. Gruber said he was “excited” to contribute to the
program, especially because his wife is an anesthesiologist accustomed to working in hospitals. “I feel like I’m contributing and helping,” he said, the day after the restaurant supplied its first delivery. “It’s a win-win for everybody, for the doctors, restaurants, for the people that are donating…I felt really good yesterday. I’d love to do it every day.” The initiative also delivers meals from Viewpoint Brewing, Co., Board & Brew, Beeside Balcony and En Fuego Cantina & Grill – to name a few. Restaurants interested in participating can sign up on the initiative’s website. Gruber said he is taking all precautions with safety, prepping and cleaning the food carefully and wearing gloves and a mask. There has been some concern locally with how food delivery could stand to put healthcare workers at risk, but Grove asserts that the process involves “no social interaction.” Protected restaurant workers put the well-packaged, multibagged food in the back of a delivery car, and hospital workers remove the food from the trunk of the car when it arrives. With the initiative having “gone viral,” what was initially a small idea is now taking hold – and the Groves are working to coordinate a larger effort with more volunteers, more restaurants, and more hospitals. “We thought this was going to be just a small effort and it’s really much larger,” she said, adding that restaurants have offered to help with food deliveries.

SMALL TALK CONTINUED FROM B1
(Yes, she has always been spoiled.) Suddenly having multiple 8-week-old puppies in the house made me even more impressed by parents of twins or triplets. There is never a moment when something isn’t happening with one or more of them. Add to this the pups are traumatized, fearful, only occasionally housetrained and have traveled across at least two time zones. It was a full-on fire drill of cuteness right from the start. Fortunately, my house is 98% wood floors. There is one carpet at the far end of the scarcely used living room. It took them about an hour to find it and christen it. My daughter kept them upstairs mostly, yet successfully away from her cats for two days, which I liken to juggling with knives. She took pains to introduce them slowly. Unfortunately, one pup was particularly nervous and protective and barked at his shadow … and the cats. The cats have coexisted with older dogs before, but not bouncing, barking balls of puppy. They were not thrilled and the highstrung pup earned some crate time. Meanwhile, our large backyard, which was to be their playground, is an inch deep in water, courtesy of the week-long rainstorm. The trio finally agreed to walk around in the damp. They would not, however, go outside if it was actually raining, which was most of the time. I swore to my daughter she was going to have to deal with any accidents, but of course, I was swiftly recruited, since there was triple the action. There was no way one person could clean up fast enough before another critter needed attention. As we moved into the fourth day, they seemed to be settling a little and getting their puppy courage up, but life remained pretty terrifying, what with all these new sounds, smells, people and schedules. My biggest challenge? I couldn’t give them any treats. All they are allowed to eat is their kibble, which intellectually I understand. But it killed me to see those big, brown eyes in that sweet puppy face, gazing longingly at my sandwich, and deny them so much as a morsel. Using great moral resolve, I behaved myself, but it was no fun. The pups are back at the shelter now, needing further medical attention, but it was a lovely, crazy bit of fuzz therapy.

LEADING NOTE STUDIOS is offering free programming and classes to enrolled students. Photo via Facebook
Local music studio creates ‘pop-up’ classes ENCINITAS — Three weeks ago, Leading Note Studios in Encinitas, took all of its students online for private lessons. But the school wanted to offer more to its students, so it launched two online music programs offering free classes and lessons for its students called “Pop-Up Music with Camille” and ”Cabin Fever Busters.” How does it work? Any student at the school taking weekly online lessons, will also get access to music classes with owner Camille Hastings and a private Facebook group called Cabin Fever Buster. In these groups there are daily online programming, all for free, including classes for piano, ukulele, fiddle, guitar, drums,
violins, Garage Band, virtual choir (vocalists record their parts and the school edits them into one large video layering the audio), Pro Tools and ear training. The studio is still adding courses, offering almost 40 hours per month. “We are hoping our program gives parents back much needed time, as they have to adjust to having a house full of children who are ready to have their energy channeled in a positive and educational way,” Hastings said. Leading Note Studios has also taken this to the next level by partnering with more than 50 music schools in the U.S. and Canada, to be part of the group and add content to the group.

t’s remarkable how olive oil has walked in the same footprint as wine, recently capturing the public’s fancy. It’s favored with rustic breads, salads, over pizza and avocados and as a sophisticated garnish to pasta sauce. No longer content to use plain-tasting backyard made oils, aficionados look for brand, high quality and a story-line. Olive oil tastings are complementing wine tastings in small boutiques and at wineries that have chosen to market olive oil as a cash crop, that is readily available to the

ave you ever looked at the trunk of your car or truck bed, and thought, “If I put a kegerator back there it would really take this tailgate, BBQ, wedding or Wednesday to the next level”? If you love the social connections made over a beer or cocktail, you probably have, but it probably hasn’t inspired you to start restoring vintage trucks into refrigerated mobile drink dispersing machines. Taylor Steers and Corbin O’Reilly, the founders of Tap Truck have done just that. The two friends and company founders have built out a fleet of vehicles equipped to pour your favorite beverages at events everywhere. I spoke with Taylor about how Tap Truck came to be, how the pandemic is impacting their business and what beer they reach for first. Cheers: Hi Taylor, thanks for taking a moment to chat with me. What is Tap Truck, and how did the concept originate? Taylor: Tap Truck is a mobile beverage catering company that utilizes vintage panel trucks that are
Cheers! North County
Ryan Woldt installed with a 4-6 tap draft system. We tap everything from non-alcoholic drinks to draft cocktails. [The] concept originated in 2016. Corbin and I wanted to bring a new spin and something different to the current mobile beverage catering companies in San Diego. Our goal was to incorporate both of our passions into a business concept. Our passions [being] vintage classic American cars and small batch craft alcohol that is new and popular to the market. Cheers: Why did you decide to build this company in San Diego County? Did you build out your vehicles yourself? Taylor: We have been operating since August 2016. San Diego, being one of a few craft beer meccas in the United States, seemed like a perfect town to start
a local beer truck business. Our first vehicle was a 1952 Chevy Panel which we built out and restored in the driveway of our house. [It was] a passion project turned into a full-time business. Cheers: How has the business evolved? Where are some of the cool places you’ve taken the trucks? Taylor: Our business has steadily grown within the local market of San Diego. Meeting event planners, community workers, and small business owners have been key to the growth of our business — making these relationships where we can segue our Tap Trucks into their events, and to represent other business products on our trucks. We have also taken our label of “Tap Truck” to a national, and now worldwide, level. We currently have Tap Trucks in over 20 different cities throughout the United States, and we are in British Columbia, Canada! Cheers: How has COVID-19 impacted your business, and what does the future look like for Tap Truck? Taylor: Corona

(COVID-19) has put all event business on pause. We have lost a lot of business from cancellations due to the virus, but luckily a majority of our scheduled events have been postponed to future dates. The postponement of events has really compacted our late summer schedule. Our availability for new business has definitely gone down. Cheers: What local beers are at the top of your personal go-to list? Taylor: The beer we love to serve has a lot to do with the people who brew it and represent it. The industry for craft beer has been so impacted over the past decade that if you make bad tasting beer, good luck competing and surviving in the current day market. Thus if you can brew great tasting beer, you need great representation to get it out there and place it into accounts. The beer we provide not only tastes great but has great people behind the beer to represent it. Tap Truck favorites have always been Abnormal Brewing, Coronado Brewing, Ketch Brewing, and Eppig Brewing to name a few. These breweries have been putting many, many smiles on our customers’ faces for our events. Cheers: Anything else we should know about Tap Truck? Taylor: If anyone is interested in Tap Truck, please reach out! We will build you a Tap Truck, construct your website, and consult you into a successful small business! If you want to learn more about or book Tap Truck’s services, check out www.taptrucksd.com, or follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Are you a local beer or beverage entrepreneur?

Coming together over food in The Quarantined Kitchen with Chef Jenn lick the plate david boylan

ur current homebound lives have brought out the creativeness that most culinary folks inherently possess and a prime example is the Facebook group called The Quarantined Kitchen put together by Chef Jenn Felmley. I was invited to join and soon found myself heading straight there when looking for meal inspirations. If you are even the slightest bit inclined to put even the slightest effort into a meal, I would suggest joining this group. Then I started reading more about Chef Jenn and was like, OK, she has a great story that I’d like to share, so here we are. The following are some highlights from our remote interview. LTP: Where did you grow up? And tell me about some of your early culinary influences. Chef Jenn: I was born and raised in San Diego, from a childhood in Pacific

tree originated in Greece, then spread throughout the Mediterranean. While olive oil has not caught on in western wineries, Italy has dominated the market with its emphasis on extra virgin, the finest grade from the first pressing, a cold-press designed to maximize antioxidants. This is a healthy ingredient that will keep your weight down and help to increase your lifespan. Executive chefs use only extra virgin olive oil, showing up in the menu as the initials EVOO. When I want to tastetest an extra virgin bottle of olive oil, like most wines, I like it best from a 750 ML standard wine sized bottle. I slightly toast a slice of rustic, oval shaped fresh baked multi-grained bread, then rub in a bit of garlic with a drizzle of oil. Chopped tomato and basil will add to the flavor. They are saturated with the oil in a sunken plate for dipping the bread. This makes a delicious appetizer for the main entrée, preferably your favorite Mediterranean flavored recipe. Olive oil lasts about 18 to 24 months stored in a cool, dark place. Look for a harvest date of 2019, now selling in Spring of 2020. Unlike wine, olive oil is best less than a year from purchase. The best olive oil districts in Italy are Liguria near Lucca, Tuscany near Montalcino and Lazio near Rome.
Beach to spending my high school years in Del Mar. My early culinary influences were very diverse. My grandmother in Long Island, New York, had a classic French (she was my version of Julia Child) cooking style. She taught me about making your kitchen the center of a home. My friends’ moms are from all over the world, including Tina, who's Persian and whose mother made the most incredibly bright and vibrant salads, stews and rice dishes. Kizzy’s mom owned a Mexican bakery and showed me the art of a family gatherings that all revolved around food and love.

of the Caribbean. I found my love for the plantain in Miami. I fell in the love with the flavors of Cuban, Haitian and Puerto Rican food. I worked in a traditional Spanish restaurant while in Miami where I learned so many wonderful dishes that are still with me to this day. The New England campus [in Providence, Rhode Island] was more about learning the classic techniques and a hard work ethic. I also got to explore a lot of local ingredients that New England does incredibly well, from the incredible oysters and various seafood to the Portuguese cuisine and the incredible diversity of flavors.
the highlights of that and how did it shape your style? Chef Jenn: I was incredibly lucky to live in Northern Italy in small town outside of Milan; this is really where I learned how wonderful a simple meal made from incredible ingredients can be. This is really the base of my cooking style to this day. I was also blessed to go to wine school in Germany. I lived in England as well and have some amazing British food memories.
ed by COVID-19, I started the FB group as a place for people to come find a community around food. It's a place where you can ask any food question or just get inspired by what other people are cooking. This group is as necessary for me as it is for the people in the group. It allows me to care for people through food, something I did as a personal chef and need to do. It is a place for people to come together, share recipes, ask questions and feel a part of something. My goal is to make this an online kitchen, where everyone can gather. Anyone is welcome to join the group, they just have to ask to join.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Don’t be put off by a seemingly too-tangled situation. Sometimes a simple procedure will unsnarl all the knots and get you in the clear fast and easy, just the way the Lamb likes it. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s a good time to go through your work space — wherever it is — and see what needs to be replaced and what can be tossed (or at least given away) without a second thought. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Someone who disagrees with your position might try to intimidate you. But continue to present a fair argument, regardless of how petty someone else might be while trying to make a point. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might find yourself exceptionally sensitive to family matters this week. An issue could come to light that you had overlooked. Ask other kinfolk to discuss it with you. LEO (July 23 to August 22) You might have more questions about a project (or perhaps someone you’re dealing with on some level) than you feel comfortable with. If so, see which can be answered, which cannot, and why. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) It’s a good time to clean up and clear out what you don’t need before your tidy self is overwhelmed by “stuff.” Then go celebrate the Virgo victory over clutter with someone special.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You might feel a mite confused about why something you were sure couldn’t go wrong didn’t go all right either. Be patient. Things soon move into balance, exactly as you like it. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) At this decision point, you could be moving from side to side, just to say you’re in motion. Or you could be considering making a move straight up. What you choose is up to you. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Although your finances should be in an improved situation at this time, thrift is still the savvy Sagittarian’s smart move. Advice from a spouse or partner could be worth heeding. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Taking on a new challenge brings out the Goat’s skills in maneuvering over and around difficult spots. Best of all, the Goat does it one careful step after another. (Got the idea, Kid?) AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Your well-known patience might be wearing thin because of a disturbing (and seemingly unending) problem with someone close to you. This could be a time to ask for help. Good luck. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Be careful about a new venture that lures you into a “just look and see” mode. Be sure that what you’re being given to see isn’t hiding what you should be seeing instead.
