REGION — San Diego County’s congressional representatives took to social media today to respond to the violence that erupted at the U.S. Capitol when a throng of Trump supporters stormed the building and clashed with police, forcing lawmakers to shelter in place. Rep. Mike Levin, D-San Juan Capistrano, whose district includes parts of San Diego County, tweeted, “I am sheltering in place due to multiple threats from suspicious packages and Trump supporters storming the Capitol, but I am safe. I am incredibly grateful for the brave Capitol Police officers trying to keep us safe.” Rep. Scott Peters, D-San Diego, sent out TURN TO CAPITOL ON A5

City program to reduce emissions by recycling food scraps By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — A new recycling program that collect leftover food scraps from local businesses is helping the city to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and meet its zero waste goals. In August of last year, the city partnered with Waste Management to launch its Food Scraps Recycling Program, which diverts food scraps from going to landfill. The program has been in the making for several years after the state passed THE CITY’S food waste recycling program has been in the more aggressive mandates making for several years.

divert organics from landfill. Oceanside’s program helps the city meet those requirements as well as its own zero waste goals, which set a goal of reaching a 7590% waste diversion rate by 2020. “We’re currently at 67%,” said Colleen Foster, the city’s environmental officer in the Water Utilities Department. With the new food scraps program, Foster anticipates seeing that rate rise 8-10% in the next year. Instead of throwing away food scraps — everything from meat, bones, dairy, fruits, vegetables and
according to the Water Utilities Department is the equivalent of taking 940 cars off the road every month. After food scraps are collected from businesses, they are taken to a wastewater facility in Los Angeles where they are processed and turned into renewable energy that fuels the facility. Since the program started, more than 1,500 cubic yards of food scraps have been processed into renewable energy. So far, more than 1,000 Oceanside businesses have TURN TO FOOD SCRAPS ON A10

even food-soiled paper containers and towels — with the rest of the trash, those scraps go into a separate bin to be collected through the program. When food scraps and other organics sit in a landfill, they generate methane gas, which is one of the most potent greenhouse gasses. By diverting organics and food scraps from the landfill, the methane gas production from those landfills is reduced. Since the beginning of Oceanside’s program, more than 2,600 cubic yards of organics have been diverted from the landfill, which

What will Oceanside look like in the next 15 years? By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — Throughout January, city planners are seeking input on what residents value about Oceanside and how they want to shape their city for the next two decades. Through its Onward Oceanside campaign project, city planners have been working for the past year to complete the city’s General Plan Update as well as the Smart and Sustainable Corridors Plan and the South Morro Hills Community Plan. The project team consists of Principal Planner Russ Cunningham, Senior Planner Rob Dmohowski and planners Shannon Vitale and Stefanie Cervantes. In the next few weeks, the city is hosting a series of virtual workshops where residents can tune in and actively participate in groups to discuss what they would like to see laid out in the three plans. “We are asking the community to share with us what they believe are the fundamental values we share as Oceansiders, and what priorities they believe the city ought to be pursuing,” Cunningham said. “The collection of these values will come together to create a broad vision for the city’s future over the next 10 to 15 years.” The General Plan serves as a blueprint for a city’s future development goals. State law mandates that each city and county have a “comprehensive, long-term general plan” with a purpose for planning new growth, housing needs, environmental protection and projection of future demand for sewer, water, roadways, parks and emergency services. According to state law, the city’s plan must

the project’s team, Cunningham is also responsible for the land use, mobility, safety and noise elements. Dmohowski is responsible for the housing element, which is the only element required to be updated ac-
15, 2029, as part of the Regional Housing Needs Assessment’s (RHNA) sixth housing element cycle. Of that amount, Oceanside must build a total of 5,443 housing units. The city must demon-
strate to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by April 15 that they can meet their new housing allocations. Dmohowski is also in charge of the South Morro Hills Community Plan, which will look into how this highly rural, northeast neighborhood can accommodate additional housing and agritourism while preserving its agricultural resources and saving its farms. The council instructed city staff to come back with a community plan for South Morro Hills after the North River Farms project was approved in November 2019, which changed the zoning amendment in the neighborhood allowing for more development. Dmohowski explained
that farmers in South Morro Hills are finding it harder to farm based on the cost of labor and competition from other areas, and many are interested in potentially selling land for residential use. Currently, the area only allows for one house per 2.5 acres. Dmohowski said staff is looking at the potential for cluster housing, which preserves the majority of agricultural land and places the houses so that they are not seen from the road and avoid affecting agricultural production. “Residents up there want to preserve the ridgelines and terrain and keep agritourism and housing in the lower areas out of public view,” Dmohowski said. Though the discussion of housing connects the South Morro Hills Community Plan and the Housing Element, the city doesn’t plan to rely on South Morro Hills to meet its RHNA requirements. “We’re doing our best to take the smart growth approach to accommodate housing,” Cunningham said. Cunningham is also in charge of the Smart and Sustainable Corridors Plan, which will serve as the foundation for the General Plan Update. Through this plan, the city will seek to build future housing and employment growth along the city’s major commercial corridors. Oceanside received a grant from the Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Grant Program to plan for more sustainable growth along Mission Avenue, Oceanside Boulevard and Vista Way. In addition to infill and redevelopment, the plan will focus on a bicycle, pedestrian and transit-friendly infrastructure TURN TO OCEANSIDE ON A11
North County parents may join school ranks as substitute teachers By Steve Puterski
ENCINITAS — To help alleviate a shortage of substitute teachers, a number of North County parents are willing to fill the gaps. School districts have increased pay and advertised openings to help combat teacher’s on leave or sick leave due to COVID-19. However, for the parents it is also a way for them to get their children back into school instead of virtual learning. Ginny Merrifield, executive director of the Parent Association of North County, said parents are willing to help deliver a solution and work in partnership with the districts. “Parents will do anything to get their kids back in school,” she said. “This was not designed to cause problems.” Middle and high school students in the San Dieguito High School District and Carlsbad and Vista unified districts will not return un-

til late January. The requirements may differ from district to district, according to a review of each district’s application. All, though, require a bachelor’s degree, fingerprints and to pass the California Basic Educational Skills Test or provide SAT or ACT scores in place of
the CBEST, according to a spokesperson from the PANC. Amy Caterina, a former board president of the Del Mar Educational and Canyon Crest foundations, is just one of many obtaining her credentials. While her two kids have graduated from the district, she has
spent years involved with various roles of the district but has grown weary of the delays. However, she has grown weary of what she says is consistent pushback from the union and said she’s unsure of whether there is the “will” to move forward. Caterina said other districts, such as Rancho Santa Fe, have done well with preparations and creating the safest environment possible. Still, she’s doubtful the district, and union, will allow students to return this year. “The district has been beholden to the union for too long,” Caterina said. “Proctors are a very reasonable solution. I know there is a safe way, but there is no will.” In Carlsbad, Scott Davison has been a vocal critic of CUSD and the teacher’s union for months as reopening plans have been pushed back time and again. While Carlsbad has different re-
quirements for its substitutes, he said the goal is to support teachers who cannot or will not go back into the classroom. Davison said a possible solution is for parents to also act as proctors for those teacher’s, saying kids are in need of returning to school. “The parent association wants to help recommend as many subs as possible for North County,” he said. “We don’t want any more excuses.” In Del Mar, Hannah Miller, who coaches volleyball at Torrey Pines High School, said she is also in the process of submitting her application to the SDUHSD. The process has mostly been pain-free, although there is a delay with her fingerprints. Miller said as a coach she has already been fingerprinted, but there is a different fingerprinting process for teachers, which is holding up her application. Regardless, she said she
hopes to be approved in the next few weeks and wants to help students return to the classroom as safely as possible. Also, the pay is added bonus as SDUHSD is offering $250 per day, while CUSD recently increased its substitute pay to $160 per day.

A secession session
‘I
By Bob Franken
f at first you don’t secede, try again.” It’s not that the secession of states is a good idea -- it’s not -- but the truth is, we are not a United States anymore, and never have been. Were it not for the fact that the motivation for the Confederacy to break off was so odious -- it was really about the states’ rights to hold fellow humans as slaves and brutalize them -- I would have said let them go. The Southerners were nothing more than a bunch of genteel backstabbers who talked funny anyway. But still, I see Lincoln’s point when he said, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” The Civil War ended more than 155 years ago. And, amazingly, even after the grudging progress we’ve made from slavery through Jim Crow to those who still long for Jim Crow, we still have a bunch of regressives, like radio sage Rush Limbaugh, promoting secession. Meanwhile, Donald Trump and his MAGA-teers (Make America Great Again is just another way of saying Jim Crow) have effectively left us with a Divided States. So why not? Well, there are some practical considerations, like land mass. The lower 48 are geographic neighbors,
in the same subdivision, although they are more like relatives with bitterly feuding hatreds. So that obviously isn’t convincing. Besides, how do you account for Alaska and Hawaii, and, for that matter, Puerto Rico, Samoa, the Virgin Islands and all those distant places? So that’s not it. Is it that we are bound by a system of laws? That would be it, except when you have laws, you have lawyers, so you don’t really have laws. As we’ve witnessed with President Trump, we have attorneys ready to thwart the will of the people in this alleged democracy at the drop of a billable hour. Besides, when you have laws, you have lawmakers, Congresspeople and legislators who can be bought and sold. And you also have judges who are bound by their ideologies. Except in cases where the loser in the election goes bonkers and concocts legal impediments that out of necessity are, to use a technical term, shamelessly stupid. Getting back to the political system ... it’s really a series of fiefdoms, not only in terms of federal, state and local entities, but also with all the other sub-jurisdictions, all of which have their own potential for cor-
ruption. While it’s easy to sneer at the politicians, in fairness, there were a few who stood up to the bizarro tactics of Donald Trump trying to save his own skin -- some of them in his own party. That does not include the 126 Republican House members who actually backed the brief in support of that last-minute farfetched lawsuit initiated by the Texas state attorney general. A brief so asinine that the U.S. Supreme Court justices unanimously rejected even considering it. One has to ask, who elected those 126 congresspeople to begin with? Come to think of it, Texas politicians make a habit of trying to secede. Among the latest is Republican state Rep. Kyle Biedermann, who wants to establish a referendum for what he calls “Texit.” It will get to the point where the majority of our citizens try to simply ignore our politicians, which would make sense if it was not for the fact that they have life and death power over us. Still, that type of mental secession is the best America can do. Bob Franken is an Emmy Award-winning reporter who covered Washington for more than 20 years with CNN.
thomas d. elias presidential primary, this divide saw the ultra-liberal Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders take 35 percent of California’s Democratic vote while other, more moderate candidates like President-elect Joe Biden and his transportation secretary-designate Pete Buttegieg got 65 percent. That was akin to the margin by which U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a moderate, won her 2018 primary against the self-described progressive Kevin de Leon, now a Los Angeles city councilman. Gascon, a former deputy Los Angeles police chief who later was San Francisco’s district attorney – and left the city in a crime crisis when he was finished, according to critics – may be the ultimate California carpetbagger, moving from south to north and back south whenever it could boost his career. His edicts immediately after taking office went far beyond “reforms” he promised while campaigning. No one knows if he could have been elected had voters known what was coming. Supporters justify his moves by saying they are extensions of voter-approved initiatives that shifted some felonies to less-penalized misdemeanors and lowered prison populations. But among Gascon’s actions is an attempt at virtual elimination of cash bail in Los Angeles County. That’s counter to the resounding vote last fall on Proposition 25, which threw out a recently-passed state law ban-
ning cash bail. So Gascon is not simply carrying out voter wishes. Gascon also threatens to have prosecutors freeze out judges who don’t go along with his edicts by not filing felony cases in their courtrooms, even though state law and state Supreme Court decisions give judges the power to add sentence enhancements to criminal charges where they believe it’s justified. Enhancements can add years to a prison sentence. This, Gascon’s office argued in one directive, can “(waste) critical financial state and local resources.” Ultimately, it will be local voters who decide via a proposed recall election whether Gascon is carrying out the public will. And the deputy district attorneys’ union has sued Gascon, saying he is trying to force his deputies to choose between “following the law, their oath…or following…orders.” This all makes sense in the context of the struggle for the soul of California Democrats. Activists on the left often pack local caucuses and elect mainly “progressive” delegates to state party conventions where endorsements are decided. This was why, for one example, Feinstein ran three years ago without her party’s backing, but won handily anyhow when the mass of the state’s Democrats decided things. It’s a quarrel that won’t end soon, but ultra-liberals like Gascon should beware that if they swing their party too far left, they will endanger the Democrats’ current domination of state politics and all its major offices.

ASSOCIATE PUBLISHER Chris Kydd
Letters to the Editor On Santa Fe Drive, there are plans to put in sidewalks in the areas that are lacking them. The need for sidewalks has been a problem for a long time, as many kids depend on these routes to get to school, and the street has become increasingly busy. The absence of side-
he identity crisis that has divided the California Democratic Party for the last few years is now playing out in full force in the court system of the state’s largest county. This is one meaning of the controversy that followed December’s order by George Gascon, the newly-elected Los Angeles County District Attorney, that all 1,000 or so of his courtroom deputies immediately stop enforcing the state’s “three-strikes-andyou’re-out” and cease adding potential sentence enhancements to any charges they file against criminal suspects. “In essence,” said one judge, “Gascon is saying there are no ‘career criminals’ that society has an interest in keeping off the streets as long as possible. To state that proposition is to affirm its absurdity.” Gascon argues that penalties for actual crimes being charged are significant on their own and that sentencing enhancements like those for hate crimes and third strikes lead to excessive prison terms disproportionately affecting Blacks and Latinos. He contends they do not deter many crimes, but do wreck lives and cause societal damage. “People that commit a crime…they are going to face accountability,” he told a reporter. “That accountability will be proportionate to the crime.” In effect, he was endorsing the Biblical principle of “an eye for an eye,” rather than make penalties for any single crime greater than their actual effect on victims. The conflict is a dramatic reflection of the divide within the state’s Democratic Party between moderates and ultra-liberals calling themselves progressives. During last year’s

IN TURMOIL City officials seek alternatives as business owners voice frustrations By Steve Puterski
CARLSBAD — In perhaps one of the most contentious issues facing the city of Carlsbad in years, city officials spared small business owners from enhanced enforcement related to violations of state and county health orders due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During a marathon special meeting on Jan. 5, Councilwoman Cori Schumacher motioned for the council to approve administrative enforcement of the San Diego County health order subject to city citations and fines but failed to receive a second and the motion died. However, Councilwoman Teresa Acosta was successful in bringing back the matter through her own motion for a “comprehensive approach,” which includes the possibility of incentives for small businesses, collaborating with other cities to mitigate the pandemic and excluding small businesses from the city’s pandemic assistance program (loans) for willful violators of state and
December. Schumacher said the council was sending mixed messages to residents and staff, while also saying “this gives us the opportunity to better support our businesses” and address home gatherings. “It was at that time we started to talk about how to protect our community health and safety,” Schumacher said, referring to the July and September meetings. “As residents kept reaching out, a significant amount from my district, about the non-compliance of public health orders, we consistently came to, as a four-member council, a split vote. This was really the time to bring it back and grapple with it as a full council.” Prior to the meeting, at least 80 people protested at Carlsbad City Hall decrying more enforcement, such as administrative fines and citations, along with dozens of people holding signs to recall Schumacher from office. Between 70 to 80 residents consisting of small

county health orders. Acosta’s proposed approach could include the potential for administrative fines, citations and tying the municipal code to the health orders, according to Schumacher, although fines and citations were not specifically mentioned in the motion. Acosta did not explain in detail what any other options may be considered, while Mayor Matt Hall was the lone no vote to her motion. No date has been set to discuss the new item. Schumacher, who represents District 1, said she brought the item forward because the council had several 2-2 votes prior to Acosta taking her seat in
business owners and employees spoke during the meeting, with about six people voicing support of the measure. A large majority of residents railed against the item, and Schumacher specifically, for politically motivated attacks when businesses and employees are struggling to meet their financial and other obligations due to the recent orders barring restaurants from outdoor dining. Also, the city received hundreds of emails, most of which were in support of small businesses. According to Carlsbad Police Chief Neil Gallucci, at least 28 small businesses have been sent ceaseand-desist letters from San
Diego County for violating health orders. Gallucci said nine cases have been submitted to the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office for further review or possible action. “I like incentives, but the amount businesses need is far beyond our reach,” Hall said. “There are several health orders are in the courts. I think we’re going down a path with no scientific or factual basis.” Many speakers, angry and frustrated with Schumacher, told personal stories of their employees struggling, while also demanding to see data showing a correlation of transmission of the virus and outdoor dining. However, some restaurants have been serving indoors as well, which led to those in favor of enhanced enforcement speaking out. Speakers also passionately told Schumacher and the council most of the recent surges of the virus are due to home gatherings, expedited by the holiday season. They also pointed to how big box stores and grocery stores weren’t following capacity rules, along with calling Schumacher a bully, destroying an economic engine for the city and several people calling on her to donate her salary to help struggling businesses. “I am not, per one of our councilmember’s quotes, one of a few selfish interests placing my community at

significant risk by violating public health orders; nor am I exploiting unfair competitive advantages,” said Dede Rowlett, who manages Lola’s Deli, an iconic city business. “I’m a longtime resident, constituent, neighbor, friend and single mom doing her damndest to keep her small family business alive. And with that, 13 other staff members so they can feed and house their families.” Councilwoman Priya Bhat-Patel said the region has taken a “very siloed” approach and said the is-
sue shouldn’t be political or partisan. Additionally, she added more collaboration between mayors and other cities to mitigate the pandemic would be greater use of resources. However, she cautioned against rogue actors which could lead to further issues or an inability to control further outbreaks of the virus. Bhat-Patel, who holds a doctorate in public health, said she’s spoken with numerous experts who say unmasked individuals from indoor gatherings are the
main source of spread. In regard to further action on required masks along Carlsbad Boulevard, Bhat-Patel was not in support because it would be too difficult for police to enforce such a policy. “The way it’s been handled throughout the state and country, it’s been abysmal,” Bhat-Patel said. “A lot of this comes down to individual behavior. How do we support good actors during this time? This shouldn’t be partisan, and it should be about how we work together.”

We’re ready to fight. “This is not democracy you’re seeing. That’s anarchy out there. We’re here
to fight for democracy. God bless America.” Newly-elected Rep. Sara Jacobs, D-San Diego, wrote, “My staff and I are safe. The Capitol complex remains on lockdown and everyone should stay clear of the area.” The Rev. Shane Harris, a local civil rights leader, released a statement on what he saw as hypocrisy from the Capitol's police
force. “Let us be clear. The anarchy taking place in America’s Capitol is showing that our police know how to have restraint,” he said. “It shows that the expectations set out when Black people arrive to protest versus the majority of white Americans protesting today breed different responses and expectations in our country.”

Coronavirus County hospitalizations surge as COVID-19 variant spreads City News Service
REGION — San Diego County public health officials reported 1,814 new COVID-19 infections, 56 deaths and a record number of hospitalizations Tuesday, as well as 24 new confirmed and four probable cases of the more contagious strain of SARS-CoV2 that was first identified in the United Kingdom. It was the 36th consecutive day with more than 1,000 new infections, but the first time in 26 days that the number reported did not surpass 2,000. The 3,000 mark has been crossed 10 times since the start of the pandemic. The number of deaths reported was the third-highest, after 62 deaths reported Wednesday and 58 on New Year's Day. The county's cumulative cases now number 172,847, and the death toll rose to 1,654. A record 4,478 cases were reported Friday, followed by the second- and fourth-highest numbers -- 4,427 Saturday and 3,520 Sunday. Of 19,182 tests reported Tuesday, 9% returned pos-
itive, dropping the 14-day rolling average to 12.9%. County health officials are attributing the increasing number of deaths to gatherings over the holidays and the presence of the new coronavirus variant known as B.1.1.7. “Each of the 56 people who lost their lives to COVID-19 during this reporting period was someone's parent, sibling, friend or spouse, as well as a valued member of our community,” said Dr. Wilma Wooten, San Diego County's public health officer. “These deaths are a sobering reminder that we must all do our part to prevent the spread of COVID-19.” The latest deaths were of 26 women and 30 men who succumbed to the virus between Dec. 2 and Sunday. A dozen were in their 90s, 13 in their 80s, 13 in their 70s, 13 in their 60s, four in their 50s, and one in his or her 20s. The San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency said 50 had underlying medical conditions, with medical histories pending for the other six.
The county reported 62 new hospitalizations and 10 new intensive care unit admissions, bringing the number of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 to a record 1,609. The number of patients in ICU beds is 380. The county's ICU bed availability is 20%, according to county health officials, although with staffing issues, the reality is likely much lower. The intensive care unit bed availability for the Southern California region remains at 0%. The cases reported Tuesday of the more virulent strain bring the county's confirmed cases of the variant to 28. The cases were confirmed by whole genome sequencing and the four probable cases are directly linked to the confirmed cases and have positive diagnostic nucleic acid tests, but are not yet sequenced. There have been no deaths locally connected to the variant, but one woman had to be hospitalized. She is now at home recovering, according to the HHSA. The variant was first found in the United States last Tuesday in Colorado. The first San Diego case was
confirmed in a man in his 30s with no history of travel, who first became symptomatic Dec. 27 and tested positive Dec. 29. He was hospitalized and contact tracing was initiated. Three additional cases were reported Thursday. The 24 newly confirmed patients are believed to have no travel history and come from 19 different households, but the investigation and contact tracing are ongoing, the HHSA reported. New cases have been identified in San Diego, Chula Vista, La Mesa and Lakeside. While the four youngest cases are in children under 10 and the oldest is over 70, the average age of the variant cases is 36 -- the same as the overall average for all confirmed cases in the county to date. ``The fact that these cases have been identified in multiple parts of the region shows that this strain of the virus could be rapidly spreading,'' Wooten said. “People should be extra cautions to prevent getting and spreading COVID-19, especially this variant, which research has shown is more contagious.”
Palomar federal field hospital activated By Tigist Layne
ESCONDIDO – A 202bed federal field hospital inside of Palomar Medical Center in Escondido that was activated last week to support overwhelmed hospitals now has 10 patients. The FEMA hospital, located on the 10th and 11th floors of Palomar Medical Center, was first announced back in April, but was officially activated last week as ICU capacity in San Diego remains at 0%. According to Brian Ferguson from the California Office of Emergency Services, the Palomar field hospital will serve “the wider San Diego region with a particular eye towards decompressing overburdened hospitals in Imperial County.” One of these hospitals, El Centro Regional Medical Center, which is bearing the brunt of the coronavirus in Imperial County, reported that it ran out of ICU beds just last week. Ten patients have been transferred to the field hospital, Gov. Newsom said Monday. Currently, the state has

The county has asked all testing labs with the capability to identify the new strain to forward specimens for genome sequencing to determine if they are indeed cases of the variant. Local doctors have also been requested to forward COVID-19 positive tests from patients with a travel history to the United Kingdom or other places overseas where variants have been detected. Two new community outbreaks were reported Tuesday, one in a business setting and one in a retail setting. In the last seven days, there have been 44 confirmed community outbreaks, defined as three or more COVID-19 cases in a setting and in people of different households over the past 14 days. In another development, San Diego County Fire Department spokesman Thomas Shoots announced a rotating vaccination schedule involving San Marcos, Escondido and Rancho San Diego for first responders. “The partnership between local fire and health agencies has built the

“The type of patients that will be seen at the site will be individuals who are not intubated, can self-feed and who generally require a skilled-nursing level of care,” Ferguson said in an email to The Coast News. “More specifically, the intent of Palomar alternative care site is to provide care for patients and ease strain on health care delivery systems. This will allow hospitals to focus their resources on those with the most acute needs.” Gov. Newsom also said during the press conference that there are substantially more alternate care sites throughout the state that are on standby, but have not yet been activated for use. Each bed at the Palomar site has a single chair at its side and holds a thin mattress, a pillow, and a package
containing toilet paper, face masks, a toothbrush and other supplies. The beds and supplies were provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the buildout of the site was done by the California National Guard. Ferguson encouraged that any persons requiring medical attention for COVID-19 should continue to consult with their physicians and should not seek admission or care directly at these sites.

Supervisors Nathan Fletcher — who was elected earlier Tuesday by his colleagues as chairman of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors — and Nora Vargas announced a plan Tuesday night to revamp the board's approach toward managing and helping defeat the pandemic. Fletcher said he will present the board next Tuesday with the new, overarching COVID-19 “framework,” which he said would override previous “actions and statements that contradict having a response based on data and science,” prioritize funding based on a “data-driven approach to targeted communities of need, taking into account health equity,” stress working “collaboratively instead of antagonistically with the state'' and pledge that the county will ``rely on data, science and (rational) decision-making to keep us safe.”
REGION — San Diego-based sequencing company Illumina and genomics company Helix announced a collaboration Jan. 5 aimed at expanding efforts to identify emerging variants of SARS-CoV-2. Illumina and San Mateo-based Helix — which operates a sequencing laboratory in San Diego — have already collaborated over the past several weeks to identify 51 of the first 54 reported U.S. cases of B.1.1.7, the more contagious COVID-19 variant first found in the United Kingdom, according to a

joint statement from the companies. Helix analyzed recent positive samples for the potential presence of the B.1.1.7 variant, then
sequenced a subset of those samples using Illumina’s COVIDSeq test, which identified the variant in four samples from California and Florida. “Genomic surveillance is essential in fighting the pandemic. Illumina is pleased to partner with the CDC and Helix to provide accurate sequencing that can contribute to rapidly scaling genomic surveillance in the U.S. to better understand the presence of B.1.1.7 and other variants as they emerge in our communities,” said Dr. Phil Febbo, Illumina’s chief medical officer. The companies say the collaboration will be expanded to examine a higher volume of samples on an ongoing basis for both the presence of B.1.1.7 and new strains. “Having a robust surveillance effort in place is critical to understanding how the SARS-CoV-2 virus is evolving, and how our public health response needs to adapt,” said Dr. James Lu, co-founder and president of Helix. “By bringing together the strengths of Helix, Illumina and the CDC, we were able to quickly evaluate the prevalence of this new variant and take learnings from this effort to better and more proactively characterize future strains that will emerge.”

Local woman’s donations support hospital staff San Diego home prices By Steve Puterski
ENCINITAS — A tragedy that led to a unifying act for hospital workers and local businesses has now spread like wildfire. Syndee Wood, of Encinitas, said the idea naturally came to her while participating in a benefit for the Addiction Awareness Initiative at Pandora’s Pizza in Leucadia. Wood attended the event to support a friend whose son, Alex Nava, a former employee at the pizza shop, passed away last year. During the event, Pandora's created a pizza in Nava’s honor and donated the proceeds to the addiction project. The fundraiser gave Nava’s mom, Lisa, an idea and she decided to donate pizzas on Dec. 13 to the intensive care unit at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas to support those fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. And Wood helped deliver the pies. “(Lisa) paid for the pizza, I gave them a tip … dropped them off and on a whim, I took a picture and posted it on my social media,” Wood recalled. “I said something to the effect of 'I’m dropping off the pizza … the ICU is at 150% capacity and for goodness sake, wear a mask.'” The reaction was swift and immediate as friends reached out asking if they could donate, Wood said. Within 30 minutes of her post, Wood had enough money for another pizza run. From there, the food drive exploded. The next day, Wood received money for two more days of meals for healthcare workers. Since then, the community service project has now reached more than $10,400.21 in donations and continues to grow. Today, Wood has enough funds to cover the next two weeks and expects the money to keep flowing. According to Wood, the project is a win for both the healthcare workers and small businesses, bridging an often divided populace. With each delivery, Wood includes a tip for the restaurant and notes to the workers. “We prefer them to be family-owned restaurants, beloved ones, in our

She takes donations through her Venmo account, places an order between $200 to $300 from a restaurant, which feeds dozens of workers, and delivers the food. Since her story has spread, others have reached out to lend a helping hand. Wood has lined up 13 volunteers to take turns with the deliveries, giving her, at times, a much-needed break. Erica Duran, an English instructor at MiraCosta’s Adult High School, is one of those volunteers and delivered food from Subman’s in Encinitas on Dec. 4. She said one challenge was to find a hospital that would take such donations, but the reaction from residents and workers has been overwhelmingly positive.

REGION — Home prices in San Diego County are expected to increase by 8.3% over the next year, the largest such increase in the nation, according to a report released today by real estate analysts at CoreLogic. Among a sampling of the largest metropolitan areas in the nation, single-family home prices in San Diego are projected to increase the most by November, ``as low inventory continues to increase prices,'' according to the report.
Despite the expected increases locally, CoreLogic's report said home price growth will slow in most markets nationwide through November, due to lower buyer demand and more supply in the coming year. COVID-19 has also had an impact, though CoreLogic said pandemic relief could spur homebuyer demand. “The housing market performed remarkably well in 2020 despite the volatile economic state,'' said Frank Martell, president and CEO of CoreLogic.

Local podcast team gives voice to Muslim-Americans By Hafsa Fathima
SAN MARCOS — As a marriage and family therapy graduate student, hosting a podcast was the last thing on Sarah Kouzi’s mind. The 23-year-old San Marcos resident was already juggling classes at San Diego State University and had never produced any kind of audio before, she said. Today, Kouzi and her co-hosts — Doaa Abulebbeh, Sara Suleiman, Ro'aa Alkhawaja — are already 12 episodes into their show, “Caught in the Middle.” The podcast operates on a simple premise. As their blurb on Apple Podcasts states, it’s a series of episodic mullings on critical issues they believe Muslim youth face in the United States. Kouzi and her co-hosts have spent the last year conversing about Islamic spirituality, finding an identity and recent discussions about the hardships of COVID-19. “I was a little bit anxious,” said Kouzi, recalling their early production days. “It felt also like a big responsibility, that what I could say could impact other people.” They’re joining a league of Muslim voices — several of whom are also all-female productions — on one of the most innovative and fastest-growing media platforms.

Over 50% of the U.S. population above the age of twelve listened to podcasts in 2020, according to data from Infinite Dial, an annual digital media survey conducted by Edison Research and Triton Digital. Podcasts on various streaming platforms drew in over 100 million listeners a month, the survey reported. “It’s the simplicity of
the form that encouraged us, you’re just talking and connecting with an audience,” said Abulebbeh. The show’s introductory episode sets a clear path: the team is intent on providing a “safe space,” to explore issues like gender inequality, culture and finding a sense of comfort in both their Muslim and American identities.

still face higher levels of discrimination than other faith groups at jobs, airports and health-care services, data from the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding revealed. Voicing these concerns and unmasking stereotypes could still be a daily struggle, the team said. “It’s been a way to say that we exist, we’re here (as Muslims) and there are
certain struggles that are unique to us,” said Kouzi. The idea to launch a show focused on Muslim-centered issues was inspired by two acquaintances of the team: Arwa Alkhawaja, who leads a non-profit focused on mental health and Dr. Rola Abushaban, who runs a private acupuncture practice in Mission Valley. The concept had been
brimming in their minds for a while, Abushaban said, spending weeks trying to decide who would be best to bring the potential show alive. “This is the generation that learns from podcasts,” said Abushaban. “So I thought, ‘Let’s get with it.’” While topics were quickly pitched and discussed, the actual process of podcasting was not without its challenges. None of them had any previous technical experience, Arwa Alkhawaja said, picking up skills as they went along. “We started off recording with a microphone clipped to a straw,” she said. “We had to get creative, learning things like how to fix the sound quality.” Production has since taken on a less improvisational approach, they said, with Ro'aa Alkhawaja and Abulebbeh editing and the rest researching, brainstorming and deciding what issues needed the most attention. Sometimes, it’s as simple as exploring the idea of gratitude or finding hope in the midst of the pandemic.

Litigation looms over affordable housing plan By Dan Brendel
ENCINITAS — A three-way legal action, pitting the city and state governments against a private citizens’ group, will determine the fate of Encinitas’ practice of zoning by referendum. That practice, which residents instituted in 2013 as Proposition A, requires local voters to approve certain land uses and increases to allowable residential densities and building heights. Some other cities, such as Escondido and Santee, use similar zoning-by-referendum mechanisms. Others reserve such decisions to their local legislatures. In 2016 and 2018, Encinitas voters blocked a state-mandated affordable housing plan, known as a Housing Element, which would’ve increased certain density and building height allowances. The city failed to adopt its current Housing Element until 2019, seven years past the statutory deadline, only after a court compelled it to do so, overriding Proposition A on a one-time basis. To avert a similar deadlock in adopting a new Housing Element update, due April, both the city government and the state’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) want a judge to remand partial approval authority back to the city council. State law supersedes Proposition A “to the limited extent necessary to allow the city to adopt Housing Elements,” the city attorney argues in a March court filing. “The city seeks “a judicial declaration that a simple majority of the city council may adopt future Housing Elements and implementing actions … without a vote of the people.” The city administration believed at that time HCD sought to invalidate Proposition A “in its entirety.” But HCD denies that assertion. “[HCD] denies that an actual controversy has arisen between the city and the Department,” according to a September
court filing. However, “an actual case or controversy has arisen between the city and [HCD], on the one hand, and Preserve Proposition A, on the other.” Preserve Proposition A, a private organization, says zoning-by-referendum doesn’t inherently precludesadopting a Housing Element on time, and so opposes the city and state’s requested alterations. Rather, the city government, in developing voter-blocked housing plans to date, has “failed to exhaust [its] administrative remedies,” the group contends in a July court filing. Voters previously obstructed Housing Element adoption only because the city proposed, among other things, taller building allowances than HCD actually required, according Planning Commissioner and Proposition A author Bruce Ehlers. “I trust residents to pass a plan that delivers on the promise of affordable housing while adding only the minimum [density] required by law,” Susan Turney, a lead Proposition A campaigner who lost a recent bid for city council, said in September. She believes increasing residential density allowances mostly benefits developers, who profit from extra market-rate units but produce relatively little affordable housing in return. “It doesn’t seem fair that the only group defending Prop A, which was passed by a majority of the voters, is fighting two other parties that are both funded by our taxes,” Ehlers told The Coast News. The city incurred some $84,000 in legal costs related to this case as of November, the administration said in a statement. By comparison, Turney estimates private donors contributed roughly $20,000 so far to defend Proposition A. The court won’t hear the case again until June, after the April Housing Element adoption deadline. HCD declined to comment on pending litigation.

“The facility and its operation continue to comply with the specific conditions and discharge specifications of Waiver No. 6,” the Water Board told The Coast News in a statement. “Specific waste handling practices (e.g., regular sweeping of elevated and covered stalls and pick up of manure, hay/straw; wash racks are plumbed to sewer and covered; storage areas are bermed) remain in place to ensure that stormwater runoff is not polluted.”

DEL MAR — The Del Mar Fairgrounds board will further discuss whether and how to make capital improvements necessary to continue horse shows and boarding at its Horsepark Equestrian Facility, in compliance with environmental law, at its Jan. 12 meeting. “The continuation of equestrian events would require environmental protection improvements to handle water runoff due to the proximity to the San Dieguito River,” spokeswoman Jennifer Hellman told The Coast News. The 22nd District Agricultural Association announced last month it would discontinue shows and boarding of horses at its Horsepark arenas and stables through 2021. The board needs “to further evaluate the necessary investment required to meet water quality requirements,” according to a statement. The Horsepark currently has the blessing of the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board, a state agency, to conduct activities from which animal manure runoff risks contaminating waterways and groundwater. The Fairgrounds is enrolled under a Water Board policy known as “Waiver No. 6 – Discharges from Animal Operations,” which sets forth requirements to mitigate such runoff — for example, measures to collect, store and dispose of manure off-site. The Fairgrounds already implements such measures and has made some, though not all, related facility and infrastructure improvements.

Chin’s Szechwan Carlsbad back in the Village
C
hin’s Szechwan has always been my goto for solid Chinese food in the area and I was excited to hear they have added a new location with their just-opened spot on Roosevelt Street in Carlsbad Village. It was actually a proud Lick the Plate moment this past Saturday when I was told that my carryout order was their first in the new restaurant. I thought that was pretty cool. While waiting for my order, I had a fun conversation with General Manager Mary Stanford, who started out as a regular customer and as a result became friends with the family. So much so that she began helping them during holidays and weekends. Eventually she started to manage restaurants and took over the bookkeeping, which she is still doing for them 30 years later along with her GM role. She had this to say about the team at Chin’s: “All our staff and share-holders are like family and we work as a team. The owner Ting Kun Tsai keeps us motivated and collected, which I credit to our success through the years. He is an amazing person to work with.” I mentioned Chin’s bringing it back home to Carlsbad as the original Chin’s started in Carlsbad on Madison Street back in the ’80s. Ting Kun Tsai was one of the original owners and in time they became one of the largest family-owned restaurant chains in San Diego. In 2010, the chain was divided into two groups and today they have five locations in Encinitas, Oceanside, Vista, Rancho Bernardo, and their newest location in Carlsbad on Roosevelt Street next to the post office. The new location has the original management team and owner, which makes it even more special for everyone involved. They had been wanting to get back to Carlsbad for quite some time and
when they learned that the Overseas Restaurant owners wanted to retire after 30 years in business they jumped at the opportunity. Having established themselves in so many of our local communities over the years, Chin’s has developed a loyal following in each of them and have catered weddings, birthdays, graduations, anniversaries … just about any occasion. And yes, keep them in mind for your next event. So that’s a bit on Chin’s backstory and how the new location came about. Let’s get into their menu, which is based on Szechwan and Hunan style cooking. The variety of flavors and textures offered has something for everyone and given their coastal location with its health-conscious customers, they have increased their offerings of vegetarian and gluten-free entrees. Their most popular dishes include Spicy Honey Chicken, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Ku Ting Chicken, Black Pepper Beef, and Tangerine Crispy Shrimp. My carryout order had me set for lunch, dinner, a late-night snack and breakfast the next day. I started with Pot Stickers, which were quite good and that I spread over three of those meals, as I did with most of these dishes and is one of the bonuses of ordering from Chin’s — the portions are sizable. Both the Honey Wal-nut Shrimp and Pao Hu, or “Hot burned Pork,” were delicious along with the Spicy Honey Chicken. One of my favorite Chinese delights is Egg Foo Young. It’s just such a classic dish and the large patty is made fresh daily and served with snow peas, mushrooms, broccoli, baby corn, mushrooms, carrots and bok choy in a brown sauce and oh boy is it fabulous … especially as a leftover. I had to sample their Pork Fried Rice and loved that as well. And as I’ve mentioned, every one of these dishes worked just as well as
leftovers. My thing with fried rice is to crisp it up a bit in a skillet then add a couple eggs to it either mixed in or fried whole and set on top of the rice. There are so many ways to get creative with these leftovers. Given that restaurants like Chin’s have always been a carryout staple, that has enabled them to survive the pandemic and the associated restrictions. Stanford summed it up this way: “We have been able to sustain with proper planning from our team to weather times like these but most importantly, it’s the support from the communities that keep us going. “Since the beginning of the year, the communities have been amazing in their support of not just our business but all the others that are struggling as well. “We are keenly aware that it’s not just about ‘us.’ It’s about everyone who is having hardships. It’s about San Diegans. It’s important that we give back to San Diego to say thank you for their continued support. Just this year we have donated over $5k to the food bank and that’s just from the business, not including our personal donations. “We donated thousands to the Community Resource Center toward a new food truck. Through the years, we have supported the Children’s Hospital, Blood Bank, Animal Shelters, and more. “Bottom line, we are grateful to be here and we thank everyone for their continued support.” That, my friends, is a business worth supporting. And if carryout is not convenient, Chin’s offers delivery via GrubHub, Doordash, Postmates, and UberEats.

SAN MARCOS— A man suspected in a series of sexual battery and lewd conduct incidents across San Diego County was arrested today outside a shopping center in San Marcos. Deputies received a call about 5 p.m. from a customer at a Walmart lo-
cated in the 700 block of Center Drive, near Nordahl Road, who recognized a man believed to be the suspect in the sexual battery series, according to Sgt. Albert Carrillo of the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. The caller remained on the phone with deputies and led them to the location in the store where the suspect was taken into custody without incident and booked at the Vista Detention Facility, where he was being held on $500,000 bail, Carrillo said. The suspect’s name was not disclosed pending an on-going investigation by deputies with the San Marcos and Vista sheriff’s stations, as well as the San Diego Police Department.
and should be funded. This is also causing the [Fairgrounds] to re-evaluate the status of Horse Park as an equestrian facility for the long term.” Revenues for the calendar year 2020 through October tanked to $17 million — $64 million under budget — for a net $9 million operating loss. The annual Del Mar Horse Show — a three-week affair each spring, though it’s canceled for 2021 — “has not seen positive returns” for “the last couple of years,” Business Services Officer Katie Mueller told the board at their Nov. 10
meeting. The Fairgrounds was unable by press time to supply financial information for horse shows in aggregate, but The Coast News expects to obtain such records for a subsequent article. “If [the Fairgrounds] does not move forward with the proposed improvements [originally scheduled for 2021], then the likely path would be for them to submit a new [application] …, and at that time that application would be reviewed to ensure compliance,” the Water Board told The Coast News.
it put on businesses. “Fortunately before COVID we had set rates in such a way that this program was a benefit to many businesses,” Foster said. “When we decided to finally roll it out, we were able to help businesses save money.” The program also helps the city prepare for the state’s next mandate going into effect at the beginning of 2022, when residents will also be required to divert food scraps. The city is currently looking to contract other collection service agencies that can help the city meet this new mandate. To help refresh businesses about what items go into each recycling bin, as
well as ways to avoid contamination and find other cost savings, the city is inviting businesses to watch its first webinar called “Back to the Basics: Food Scraps Recycling 101.” The first of what Fosters to be several virtual webinars will be held on Jan. 25 from 12 to 12:30 p.m. via http: //www.tinyurl.com / Jan2021FoodScrapsWebinar. To further help businesses succeed in recycling food scraps, the city has even visited sites to perform walkthroughs and analyses of how businesses are recycling and offer advice on what they could improve. Such training can also be provided virtually as well.

while simultaneously decreasing greenhouse gas emissions, attracting more businesses, preserving open space and reducing urban sprawl.

Cervantes said, adding that the bands have been invited to the upcoming virtual workshops. Vitale is responsible for the community facilities element, which will handle updating libraries, cultural venues, the senior center, public safety and other publicly managed buildings. According to Vitale, the city is currently focusing on repurposing a lot of its already existing facilities rather than creating new ones. One particular feedback Vitale has received from residents so far is the
desire to see many of the city’s tennis courts that are not being used repurposed into pickleball courts. “The goal of the element is to see what we currently have and how we can repurpose those facilities to provide adequate services,” Vitale said. Cervantes noted the community facilities element have close ties to the conservation and open space element. “A lot of parks are considered open space, but there are also community buildings on those spaces,” Cervantes said. “Those elements are very con-
nected, and though each address certain things at the end of the day we’re hoping that those separate elements will complement each other.” Vitale is also working on the consolidated Active Transportation Plan and Trails Master Plan, which
will look at ways to improve access to parks and city amenities through better connectivity. The first virtual workshop, scheduled for Jan. 12, will discuss the land use, mobility and noise elements. Community facilities, conservation and
open space and safety will be discussed on Jan. 13, and the housing element will be discussed on Jan. 19. All of the workshops will start at 6 p.m. on their scheduled dates. Residents can visit onwardoceanside.com to register for the workshops.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling approximately $36,892.03 in the form of certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not accompany an oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $36,892.03 must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveyancing fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant the winning bidder an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be paid in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any
extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the discretion of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the trustor(s) or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant. The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed. To obtain a pre-sale reinstatement all defaults must be cured prior to the scheduled sale, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s
attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-ofpocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement.

Fletcher, Vargas seek board resolution declaring racism a public health crisis By City News Service

At the start, it was a decision that “never really clicked,” she says in the episode. “It was never really something that I thought about, I just put it on.” The ensuing conversation tracks how wearing the veil became more than just a piece of clothing, but the symbol of an identity she held important. It’s a piece they received posi-
tive feedback on and remains one of her proudest episodes, she added. The issues they’ve documented have long been a part of Muslim-American discourse, from comedian Hasan Minhaj’s story on growing up Muslim in a post-9/11 world, seen on Netflix’s “Homecoming King,” to more contemporary portrayals found in shows like Hulu’s “Ramy.” Focusing on issues like identity and belonging hasn’t always come easy,
but it’s also been empowering, they said. “Sometimes explaining ourselves takes so much energy, as a minority in America,” said Kouzi. “But I think in our episodes, it doesn’t feel like a burden. It feels like I’m having this conversation with others who can relate to me. It actually feels more like a relief... it’s almost therapeutic in a sense.” As they continue to conceptualize the future
of the show, they hope to bring a diverse cast of guests in upcoming episodes. “There are Muslim women in fields that are extremely difficult, like astrophysics, medicine and politics,” said Arwa Alkhawaja. “And they dare to conquer them. We’d love to have their voices on the show soon.” “Caught in the Middle” currently streams on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher and SoundCloud.
REGION — San Diego County Supervisors Nathan Fletcher and Nora Vargas announced Jan. 6 they will ask the Board of Supervisors to pass a resolution declaring racism a public health crisis and supporting actions to have the county address systemic racism at its Jan. 12 meeting. “In declaring racism as a public health crisis, we are acknowledging that racism underpins the health inequities throughout the region,” said Fletcher, who was elected chair of the board on Tuesday. “So much of the division we face as a society is the result of intentional government policies put in place to perpetuate systemic racism. “The only way you address it is to come back with intentional government policies designed to dismantle the barriers of oppression and move toward equality of opportunity and access for Black and brown people. “This resolution and these policies are an important step toward creating a better future for all San Diegans,” he said. According to the supervisors, as the public health agency for the County of San Diego, there is a responsibility to tackle the issue of rac-
ism and make substantive changes to county operations. The proposed measures in the board letter are intended to ensure the county is making decisions based on equity data, promoting health equity and engaging communities in a participatory process. Some of the proposed policies include: — Creating a process to solicit community input to identify policies and practices that lead to or perpetuate disparities; — Revising the county and board’s statement of values, mission, vision, and strategic plan to represent equity and inclusion as a core principle; — Incorporating a section titled “quity Impact Statement” in the board letter template for all county departments to identify and determine a systematic approach with standardized guidelines. “As our county comes together to tackle the global pandemic of COVID-19 that has disproportionately impacted communities of color, we must also collectively recognize we are facing the pandemic of systemic racism here in San Diego County, which demands our attention and requires long term change,’’ said Vargas, vice chair of the board.

A contagious can-do spirit helps bring in new year
MANNY BARRERA, 18, shown graduating from Escondido’s Del Lago Academy, is determined to work in the sports business. He’s started a podcast which focuses on how others overcame their challenges to succeed. Courtesy photo
A
fter a year centered on what people can’t do, well, we can’t wait to meet Manny Barrera. You know why? “Because Manny can,” Barrera said. That’s a promise that comes with passion.
Barrera possesses more want-do than most 18-yearolds. His engine is constantly revved, refusing to let potholes stall his dream of being involved in athletics. For Barrera’s buddies, that translates into playing whatever sport is in season. It means running, jumping,
diving and being in constant motion. But Barrera, to some, has been dealt a bum hand with a disease that often restricts him to a wheelchair. Hell on wheels? Not exactly, because Barrera’s refreshing attitude provides a slice of heaven on earth. “If Manny can, anyone can,” Barrera said. Barrera, a Palomar College freshman, produces the podcast “Manny Can!” It digs into the backgrounds of people, unearthing what motivated others to persevere, much like Barrera has. Barrera admits it’s a work in progress. “I can’t quite afford an engineer,” he said with his contagious smile. Solana Beach’s John Kentera, a 97.3 The Fan talk show host, is featured in an upcoming episode. Other notables are in the pipeline, but Barrera doesn’t want to jinx anything. Instead of what’s confirmed, Barrera is always thinking of what’s ahead. “I’m getting my emails out to potential guests,” Barrera said. With Barrera’s good fortune, in his eyes, he’ll soon have a waiting list of subjects. When Barrera was 4, his body was unexpectedly and suddenly invaded by mucopolysaccharidoses, a metabolic condition that at-
sports talk jay paris tacked his bones and skeleton, leading to surgeries on his spine, hip and knees. That meant countless bus rides with his supportive mother, Silvina, to Rady’s Children’s Hospital. But pity never accompanied them. “I thought, ‘Wow, I must be pretty special,’ ” Barrera
said, with a comedian’s delivery. “Only one person out of 300,000 gets it.” Maybe that’s why few stand taller, or carry more weight, than Barrera does at 39 inches and 53 pounds. Maybe that’s why Barrera stood out at Mission Middle School years ago at an assembly attended by NFL players. One of them grabbed Barrera’s ride and pushed him into the conga line with the other students. It was difficult to tell who enjoyed dancing more, Barrera or his new friend. His name was Luck, of course, as in Andrew, the
former Indianapolis Colts quarterback. Now Barrera hunts for anyone with a story to tell. Good luck matching Barrera’s tale, which tugs at the heart but also points listeners in the right direction. Barrera can be found at flow.page/mannycan. “I’ve heard what I can’t do my whole life,” Barrera said. “So, I figured if Manny can, anyone can.” Amen and already we like 2021 better.

Triceratops, Spinosaurus and a whole bunch of other prehistoric creatures that you’ve probably never heard of or seen. There’s the toothless Quetzalcoatlus, a flying dinosaur similar to the pterodactyl but a whole bunch bigger. In fact, it’s the largest known flying animal ever. And there’s the liopleurodon, a carnivorous, marine reptile that grew as large as 82 feet long and weighed up to 3,700 pounds. You’ll also meet the Qianzhousaurus, who started a new branch of the Tyrannosaur family. Because of his elongated snout, paleontologists in this country nicknamed him Pinocchio Rex. According to Baker, whose job combines his love of acting and boyhood fascination with dinosaurs, all of the animatronic dinosaurs for Jurassic Quest are custom-made in consultation with paleontologists. “We work with paleontologists and always re-
he winter holidays and 2020 are behind us and the new year slides in, still carrying the ancient Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times.” As I compared it to past holiday gatherings, I realized this quarantined holiday was the simplest, least stressful I have had as a grown-up. It was the final door slamming on my efforts to be my mother. I was trying way too hard, but nobody wanted to be the one to tell me to lighten up. How lucky am I that the fates saw to it? I’m a little sad I am not the matriarch of large, laughter-and-family-filled holidays, but I needed to birth three or four more young’uns to set that in motion. And who knows? Even with a brood of kids, it might still have turned into a familial bun fight. You just can’t count on that sort of thing. So, this year we learned things, and it was good. My adult daughter had recently shared that opening gifts with everyone watching and then being expected to emote over said gift has always been absolute agony for her. Instead, I let her call the shots, and we did a kind of every-man-for-himself approach. There aren’t so many of us that we can’t keep track of who got what with just a little side-eye action. And it was incredibly relaxed. Truly, who knew? I did fix some Christmas morning breakfast, but this year no introverts were forced to sit at a carefully decorated table and pretend to like my egg casserole. I had also turned every bauble of the holiday decorating over to my creative girl-child and that was about the best idea I ever

inosaurs with feathers? Giant sea snails? Toothless, airborne dinosaurs with hollow bones? Who knew? For one, the visitors around the country who have cruised the Jurassic Quest Drive Thru, a touring exhibit that features more than 70 life-size, animated prehistoric dinosaurs and undersea creatures, large and small. These same creatures will inhabit the Del Mar Fairgrounds through Jan. 10 (closed Jan. 4 and Jan. 5). This is the eighth year for the touring exhibit, but the first time Jurassic Quest has been designed as an outdoor drivethrough, explained “Dino Dustin” Baker, spokesperson for Jurassic Quest and all its creatures.

“It was originally designed to be a walkthrough exhibit indoors, but we had to pivot with the pandemic," Baker said. Since it launched the national tour in mid-July, the Jurassic Quest experience has been visited by more than 250,000 cars and one million people, according to the press release. Once visitors are
through the gate, they can tune in to a narration on their cell phones (signs will provide a prompt). As they slowly drive by, the many ginormous creatures move their heads, tails, arms and gaping mouths, most filled with razor-sharp teeth in search of prey. The drive takes about an hour.

HOW TO SAFELY DISPOSE OF MEDICATIONS

Share the story of your loved ones life... because every life has a story.
When a loved one dies, we are often faced with the question of how to safely dispose of their medications. “Flushing them” is not the answer. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department and the San Diego Board of Supervisors recognized that unwanted, unused or expired prescription drugs presented substantial risks to our community by either falling into the wrong hands, or by damaging our environment through improper disposal.

To solve this issue, most Sheriff Stations now offer secure collection drop-boxes. Residents are welcome to come to any of the facilities listed on their website where unwanted medications may be turned in anonymously.
Submission Process

IHC will similarly use the donation to support Native American children and families. “As we reflect on the past year, the tribe wanted to give back to those who have been impacted by COVID-19,” said Jamul Indian Village Chairwoman Erica M. Pinto. “We are donating these funds to honor the courage and resilience of our frontline healthcare workers and to support the children and families who are suffering as a result of the pandemic. “We are truly grateful for the extraordinary and tireless efforts of each of these organizations and their workers.” The tribe is one of 13 federally recognized tribes part of the Kumeyaay Nation, with roots in east San Diego County going back 12,000 years. The tribe uses revenue and resources from the Jamul Casino to fund educational opportunities, health care and housing initiatives for its members and projects that benefit the surrounding community — through a tribal-state gaming compact with the State of California signed in 2016. Opened in 2016, the Jamul Casino is owned and operated by Jamul Indian Village Development Corp., a wholly owned enterprise of the tribe.

Grant funding deadline extended for small biz By City News Service
REGION — The deadline for operators of small businesses and nonprofits to apply for $500 million in state COVID-19 relief funds has been extended, a San Diego County supervisor and business officials said Monday. Those who qualify have until 11:59 p.m. Jan. 13 to apply at www.CaReliefgrant.com, an extension of the original deadline date of Jan. 8. Gov. Gavin Newsom announced the grant funds last month for small businesses and nonprofits. The grants will cover business expenses specifically for small businesses hit by the pandemic. The grants are not first-come, first-serve. A review of all applications will start after the application period ends. Daniel Fitzgerald, regional director of the San Diego & Imperial SBDC Network, said a team of more than 100 business advisers provided over 20,000 hours of one-on-one
assistance in 2020, “helping small business owners access disaster assistance and get through the pandemic.” “With the new state and federal programs, our team will be ready and available to help small businesses,” he said. Supervisor Nathan Fletcher, co-chair of San Diego County's COVID-19 subcommittee, said it was a very difficult year for the business community, particularly small businesses. “That is the reason we have worked hard to provide relief and help during this difficult time,” Fletcher said. “I am excited to work with the San Diego & Imperial SBDC Network and the San Diego Foundation again to deliver funding, information and technical support for businesses and nonprofits.” The federal government’s new stimulus package features new and renewed assistance for small business owners and nonprofits, including: — additional funding
for the Paycheck Protection Program, allowing businesses who did not receive a loan to apply and receive a loan equal to 2.5 times their monthly payroll; — options for businesses that have had at least a 25% drop in revenue to ap-
ply for a second PPP loan (hard-hit industries such as restaurants and hospitality, can receive up to 3.5 times their monthly payroll); — $15 billion for grants for shuttered venues, including theaters and TURN TO RELIEF FUNDS ON B14

While I arrived too late to catch the peak of the Sunday, Jan. 3, swell, my friends on the beach were not shy about sharing stories of the waves that hit that morning. While the waves in our region were sizable at times, most of the swell was missing our shores and hitting further north, where places like Mavericks challenged even the most stouthearted among us, and to the south, the Island was being jolted by Aleutian juice. By the time I had my feet in the sand, the show was all but over and 4- to 5-foot onshore lines slowly crumbled into nothingness.

Allergies, asthma and migraines DEAR DR. ROACH: My wife has many allergies and asthma, as well as frequent migraines, about two or three a month. A family friend has been using Aimovig for the past six months with no migraine symptoms. What can you tell me about this relatively new drug? We’re concerned that the side effects may interfere with her asthma, or any other negative drug interactions. -- M.S. ANSWER: Erenumab (Aimovig) has been recently approved for migraine. In the initial study, it reduced the number of migraine days from 8.3 to 4.6 per month. As an injection, it may cause pain and swelling at the injection site, and has also caused some people constipation and muscle cramps. There are very few drug interactions, and I found no indication that it should make asthma worse. Your family friend has had a much better result than most of the people in the study, and there is no guarantee your wife will do as well. I am awaiting further longterm studies before recommending this class of migraine treatments. It is given once per month, and costs about $600 at goodrx.com. Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

Acting on an anonymous tip, authorities in DeKalb County, Alabama, raided the Rainsville Wastewater Treatment Plant on Dec. 17 and discovered a large illegal winemaking operation that appeared to have been in operation for a long time, reported WHNT. The next day, plant supervisor Allen Maurice Stiefel, 62, of Fyffe, was charged with unlawful possession of illegally manufactured alcohol and suspended without pay, according to Rainsville Mayor Rodger Lingerfelt. The operation was found in a little-used building at the plant, where, Lingerfelt said, "Things happen like that." The sale of alcohol had been illegal in Rainsville until the city council passed an ordinance approving it in September.
High Anxiety
As Delta Flight 462, en route to Atlanta, began to taxi away from the gate at La Guardia Airport on Dec. 21, passenger Brian Plummer noticed a man and woman with a service dog changing seats several times on the less-than-full plane, he told The New York Times, and heard the man say, "If I sit down, I'll freak out." Plummer soon felt the plane come to a stop, and flight attendants revealed why: The man, Antonio Murdock, 31, of Florida, had forced open an emergency exit door, causing a slide to activate, and picking up the dog, slid down to the ground with the woman, Brianna Greco, 23, according to a complaint filed in Queens Criminal Court, where the two were arraigned on a number of mischief and endangerment charges. "This doesn't happen every day at the airport," said Lenis Valens, a spokesperson for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. No one was injured in the incident, but the flight was delayed for hours.

Finding your divinity through art soul
COVID hits our wallets
on fire Susan Sullivan
H
ave you been trying to find your purpose in this life? Until this pandemic, I think many of us thought that meant getting out there and hustling and grinding to get up some corporate ladder of achievement. Yes, we need to make money to live, but isn't money also just energy? When did we normalize just working, paying bills, and then dying? If you live your "purpose," you live "on purpose" in alignment with your values and beliefs. Things are easy there. You can hear the still small voice and respond to the call. Or, as Sharon Belknap says, you can hear the invitation from Spirit. Sometimes it is through a person. But mostly Spirit. Some of you may have seen her art on the sands of Cardiff. Maybe you picked up or were given one of her Tidbits of Love (www.tidbitsoflove.com). Perhaps you found yourself in her loving gaze as you passed by. This woman exudes Love. Recently, there's been

with contrasts. Embracing all of it." I asked if she felt she was living her Divinity. She answered, "Divinity is my finger held up to the wind. I see which way the wind is blowing, and I trim my sails in flow with the joy of feeling the Presence. It is my essence." What's up with the sand art lately? "It is an expression of my divinity motivated by how my heart feels."Â CAN YOU DIG IT? The interview went on like this, so I told her that, you know, Sharon, not everybody I run into talks like this. How did you get to this place of seeming eternal bliss? Like many artists, Sharon was born with a gift to draw, mostly a pencil or pen on paper. Leaving college with a Fine Arts degree, the segue to illustrate and use graphics came with a computer. This took her away from her soul as she began conforming to societal norms looking outside herself to find herself and her art. Although she found "success" and still does work for large companies, creating designs, logos, and websites, her clients these days are more in alignment with her core values. Identifying to herself deep within that something was missing, she ran into someone with a sketchbook in a local coffee shop six years ago. Inspired, she reclaimed her Love for sketching. An ember was lit in her heart, and she returned to her first love. Pen and Ink. She started an international online class that encouraged her to step out of her role and rigid expectations around being an "artist." This time she yielded
to the burning desire to simply draw again and reawakened her heart spark. She started sharing some of her Facebook images and joined an online challenge to post sketches for seven days. Tiny, easy drawings pulled from her imagination; a ladybug, a hummingbird, a smiling sun, a wave. She used watercolor, a medium she hadn't dared play with before but again, listening to the gentle urges within. She began sharing them on a global sketchbook artist site, and the response was enormous. People began to ask for them, and she went to the next level of manufacturing and packaging and marketing, and Tidbits of Love were born. The sand art is just a larger version of the Love that is left behind with each offering. I lured Sharon away from Cardiff and got her to do a piece this last weekend in Oceanside at the Carlsbad border. I was the invitation this time. She said yes. And Spirit, as well as her son, who passed away recently, most certainly showed up. As Bill Withers sang Lovely Day, people slowed their stroll while the sun set in the background and tried to read the letters scribed within the mandala. One couple started dancing. A child went inside the heart and posed for a picture. People began to talk to one another as they gathered around the art. They smiled and were touched by the whimsical Love infused design. They beamed Love and appreciation. It was an unexpected surprise in nature—Love in Action. It was something to behold. Sharon Belknap embodies Love and Divinity. She is Essence Expressing. She is a Soul on Fire.Â
You can learn all kinds of things from surveys, and not all of them are good. A recent SimplyWise bi-monthly survey showed that 35% of seniors age 60 and older are willing to risk getting COVID in order to work. Of those who are over age 50, only 27% have put any money aside recently for retirement. Nearly half could not last one month off their savings. The number of people who plan to keep working after starting to collect Social Security benefits just keeps rising, up to 74% at the time of the survey. Due to finances, 17% of us are considering selling our homes. I scarcely know where to begin. Between seniors willing to risk getting COVID to keep working, seniors contemplating selling their homes and seniors not able to make it through even one month on savings -- it's a dismal picture. My thoughts on how to cut back on expenses and save money during COVID seem inadequate, but here they are: * Stop impulse online purchases that you make out of boredom. * Ask your auto insurance agent about discounts, since your driving is minimal now. * Double down on asking for senior discounts for everything. * Don't buy any new clothes (or even a new winter coat) if you're home all the time anyway. * Take your former entertainment budget (dinner and a movie out) and keep the cash. * If you're signed up for video streaming services you rarely use, cut all but one. * Consider selling a second vehicle if it still has payments. * Make a ritual of studying the weekly grocery sales. None of these things alone will amount to much, but taken together they will keep more cash in your pocket.

San Marcos Unified pauses in person learning By Tigist Layne
SAN MARCOS — The San Marcos Unified School District (SMUSD) notified parents last week that they would be pausing in-person learning for at least two weeks citing concerns over the recent countywide surge in COVID-19 cases. The district’s elementary students who chose a hybrid learning option have been attending in-person classes since October, while middle and high school students were set to begin in-person learning in January. On Dec. 29, the governing board and Interim Superintendent Kevin Holt sent two different letters to families depending on if their child is in elementary or secondary learning. The letter to elementary families said that students will move to remote instruction on Jan. 11 for a period of two weeks. “It is an unfortunate reality that COVID-19 continues to spread across the region; with a post- holiday surge expected in the early weeks of January. Based on this information and input

from our SMUSD community regarding the health and safety of our students and staff, the Governing Board has made the difficult, but prudent decision to temporarily suspend in-person learning after the return from winter break,” the letter stated.

and schools are prepared and look forward to seeing our students back on campus as soon as possible,” the letter said. “Please note, however, if San Diego County remains in the Purple tier our middle and high school students must continue remote instruction until the county moves into a less restrictive tier.” Both letters state that the governing board will meet on Jan. 11 to further review the status of COVID-19 in San Diego County and
will make adjustments to these plans if necessary. “I applaud the SMUSD leadership team and governing board working through the holidays to try and give parents as much notice as possible. They are in an unprecedented position trying to keep all team members, students and families safe,” said SMUSD parent Sandra Greefkes. “Based on the social media dialogue within the community… the reactions are wide-ranging from supportive and understanding to disbelief and complete disagreement with the decision.” SMUSD, which has more than 21,000 students in grades K-12, has had three positive COVID-19 cases within the last two weeks. It is unclear how many total cases the district has had.

A California Burrito tells all lick the plate david boylan
I
’ve always been intrigued by the California Burrito, that delicious combination of carne asada, cheese, sour cream and the most important ingredient, french fries — that is native to San Diego. I wanted to learn more about this special burrito, so in the Lick the Plate tradition of interviewing food items (our first was a Cuban sandwich), I recently recorded a radio show with a California Burrito or “Cal Burrito” from Juanita’s that is airing this week on 101KGB and can be found in podcast format at www. lick-the-plate.com. Highlights from my interview with “Cal Burrito” are below and include a look at its history, definitive ingredients, music to enjoy eating one with, and some other highlights from the Juanita’s menu where our
would suggest. Cal Burrito: Right on Mr. Lick the Plate, you are correct, I am but one of many fine menu selections at Juanita’s. My sibling the fish taco is amazing. So good in fact that in 2010, NY Times restaurant critic Sam Sifton listed it as one of the 15 best things he had eaten that year. I’m still a little jealous over that as he did not even try me!! But besides that, the veggie burrito, carnitas, and fish burrito are all good. We also had very cool calendars this time of year, but the company that makes them went out of business, which is a big bummer.
favorite California Burrito calls home. LTP: Let’s start with a history of how you came to be, your origins in San Diego. Cal Burrito: Well first off, there is no definitive history on my origins, but relatives have told me I originated from what San Diegans call a ‘bertos taco shop of which there are many. You know, all the taco shops that all end in ‘berto’s’: Roberto’s, Rigoberto’s, Aliberto’s — there are like 200 of them in San Diego … so you get my point. LTP: And what are your definitive ingredients? Cal Burrito: The beauty of my ingredients is their simplicity. I come stuffed with carne asada, french fries, cheese, sour cream and the highly debated guacamole, as some joints include it, and some don’t. Where I come from at Juanita’s in Encinitas, they do not use guacamole unless it is requested by the customer.

California Burrito purists, but there have been some creative variations offered on the original. What are your thoughts on those? Cal Burrito: Well, my initial reaction is to loosen up folks. It’s not like I’m some sacred recipe that goes back hundreds of years, I was born in the ’80s, people … go ahead and do what you like to me! OK, but to your question, there is the ArizoLTP: I know this may na Burrito, which adds pico be a touchy subject to some de gallo and smashed pota-

toes or tater tots, and the Veggiefornia burrito, minus the meat of course. I’ve also heard of a killer fish version down at The Royal Rooster in San Diego. LTP: Speaking of Juanita’s, which is my favorite Mexican joint in Encinitas, tell us more about your home there. Cal Burrito: Juanita’s is an awesome home. How can you go wrong living in Leucadia? The surf spots alone make it worth it, but I need to keep my cred with the locals so I’m not going to mention them by name. Plus, you have to love their slogan of “Keep It Funky,” although that funk is slowly disappearing. But as long as I still have funky places like Lou’s Records and dive bars like O’Hurly’s, I’m proud to call Leucadia home.
LTP:Is there a particular demographic profile of people that enjoy eating you? Cal Burrito:No way, and that’s the beauty of me. I’ve been eaten by just about everyone. Of course, there are the stereotypical surfers coming in post-session and mowing down on me — skaters, stoners, hungover folks, office workers, I even have the occasional super-fit Encinitas power mom order me up then chow down on me right in her car out front.
LTP: There could be a soundtrack associated with every food, what would you suggest goes well with a California Burrito? Cal Burrito: Great idea! I’m going to take it a step further and set my location as the top of Stone Steps with the following songs to go with me. First off, I have to go with the obvious “California Dreaming” by the Mamas and the Papas, next up “California Stars” from Wilco, then “California” from Joni Mitchell, “Ripple” from the Grateful Dead, followed by “Misirlou” from Dick Dale, and LTP: Tell me more finally “Kick, Push” from about some of the other Lupe Fiasco. menu items at Juanita’s you LTP: Nice selections and love the bonus location. Thanks for joining me this week and the California Burrito education! Cal Burrito: The pleasure has been all mine Mr. Lick the Plate. It has been an honor and a privilege being on your show and in The Coast News! I must add there is a lot of plate licking going on when people enjoy a California Burrito! Juanita’s can be found at 290 N. Coast Highway, Encinitas.

ehold To Kalon Vineyard on Highway 29, adjacent to Mondavi Winery in the Oakville district of Napa Valley. Known in inner circles as the “kingmaker" vineyards, wineries in Napa that can afford to buy grapes from To Kalon have gone on to fame and fortune, thanks to this fragmented 1,000-acre expanse of wine grape-growing land. I had the extreme good fortune of walking several rows of To Kalon several years ago, experiencing this higher world of “first growth” vines, and tapping into its magical well-draining gravelly soil where vines must search deep underground for water, creating ideal stress for grapes to ripen. A brief history of this hallowed ground should cast more light on the serious competition to connect with To Kalon and its expensive but luxury tasting wine grapes that command hundreds of dollars for each bottle of wine that emerges from its annual harvest of superior grapes. The Godfather of To Kalon was H.W. Crabb who in 1868 purchased 240 acres of farmland in Oakville and immediately started experimenting with winemaking. In 1881 Crabb expanded next door and bought more than 119 acres. In 1886 he named his total acreage “To Kalon,” inspired by a Greek expression meaning “the highest beauty.” Cabernet Sauvignon dominated the vineyard and it soon gained international fame with this varietal, originally from the fields of France. Crabb kept increasing his acreage until close to 1,000 acres boosted the To Kalon name. In 1966, Robert Mondavi purchased a 12-acre holding, to include his new and bold looking winery. In 1986, he was using the name To Kalon on some of his select French-style wines. About this time, Napa Valley’s Beaulieu Vineyards had also purchased To Kalon acreage from the Crabb estate, then sold its 89-acre share in 1993 to Andy Beckstoffer, a successful wine grape grower with numerous holdings TURN TO TASTE OF WINE ON B10

Happy New Year! Ok, now what? Cheers! North County
Ryan Woldt

021 is here. Now what? The pandemic isn’t gone. Basically, in North County San Diego, every-one is arguing over school re-openings and masks and restaurant openings and allowing legal weed. It’s enough to make you want to head back to sleep for six more weeks. Unfortunately, I’m not Punxsutawney Phil and can’t go back into hibernation. What I can do is follow the advice of my Mom. “You just got to make the best of it.” Hmm…What does “making the best of it” look like this year? Beer! Pizza! People! Two out of three of those are pretty straight-forward. We closed out the first weekend of the new year with a takeout dinner from Bagby Beer Company in Oceanside. My wife and I scarfed down pizzas with a side of It’s Festastic, a German-style am-ber lager next to our little gas patio fire. Side note: Before refrigeration, German brewers would brew lagers in late winter and then cold store them in underground cellars filled with ice from near-by lakes. They would mature underground through the
summer months. The Festastic has been aging splendidly, and in combination with homemade dough and sauce baked in a stone hearth oven, true joy was created in my mouth. The alchemy of pizza and beer is hard to describe fully. Ten feet across from us, my wife’s snowbird parents gnawed on pizza and drank beers and a glass of wine. They brought their own plates and silverware and napkins for pizza grease. After 10 months of this pandemic, we’ve all gotten reasonably adept at the "shift mask, sip or bite, readjust mask" routine during the few in-person eating and drinking interactions we’ve had. I’m grateful for these socially distanced moments with them. Sometimes I imagine striding across the patio in a devil-may-care manner to hug them, but then I remember what is at risk. My parents are thousands of miles away, and I hope that sometime in 2021, we will finally be able to close that gap again. So instead, I move my mask, sip my delicious beer, and bring the mask back down. Make the best of it. Repeat. One way I’ll be making the best of it throughout 2021 is by really appreciating the incredible crea-tors in our local brewing, distilling and coffee roasting industries. San Diego is one of the finest beverage producing communities in the world, and San Diegans have the
Delicious ideas for being the star of the big game By StatePoint
With just a grill and a bit of smoke, your menu will be the real MVP of the Big Game. “The key to making snacks and appetizers more flavorful is with hardwood pellets, which can add rich, wood-fired flavor to just about anything. And, with a few modifications, you don’t even need a pellet grill to achieve that delicious wood-smoked flavor,” says Ben Madden, product manager at Bear Mountain BBQ Woods, crafter of gourmet, hardwood pellets. Below, Madden shares his winning tips and a game-day recipe: Smoked & Roasted Wings. From classic Buffalo hot sauce to sweet teriyaki, chicken wings are always a crowd-pleaser, especially on game day. Take their flavor to the next level with this recipe
for Smoked and Roasted Chicken Wings: Prep time: 5 min Cook time: 2 hours Ingredients: • Essential BBQ Rub or poultry seasoning • Chicken wings • Sauce of choice • Bear Mountain’s Savory BBQ Craft Blends pellets Preparation: 1. Lightly coat wings in seasoning. 2. Arrange wings on smoker or grill at 225 degrees with at least 2 inches of space between. 3. Smoke 1 to 1.5 hours. 4. Turn up grill to 350 degrees to finish. Start brushing on sauce and turning wings periodically. 5. Once wings hit an internal temperature of 165, remove from the smoker or grill and toss in a bowl with remaining sauce. Then they’re ready to serve!

in Napa Valley. In 1999, Beckstoffer convinced winery customers to label their wines “Beckstoffer Original To Kalon Vineyard.” This started a war of words with Mondavi. It carried on until 2003 and an out-of-court settlement with terms never made public. However, you can still find the Beckstoffer To Kalon name on wines made from grapes grown in that vineyard. Andy Beckstoffer does not own a bottle with his name on it. He doesn’t have to, he has it on some of the greatest wine bottles in Napa Valley that covet his To Kalon vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon. He also owns 10 other vineyards in Napa Valley and Mendocino.

Four ways to help uplift small businesses in your community By StatePoint
With nearly half of all Americans employed by a small business, these establishments need our support more than ever. According to the latest Wells Fargo/Gallup Small Business Index, 46 percent of business owners surveyed have seen a drop in revenue over the past 12 months, with some entrepreneurs seeing even more severe impact. “Small businesses are at the heart of our communities and the key to millions of jobs,” says Steve Troutner, head of Small Business, Wells Fargo. “Keeping spending dollars in local communities is an impactful way to rally around small business owners.” Wells Fargo is sharing four ways to uplift small businesses near you: 1. Shop local. While one-stop shopping on leading e-commerce sites can be tempting, the simple act of purchasing something from your favorite local retailer can go a long way in keeping business afloat and money in your community. Returning or exchanging gifts? Ask for store credit instead of cash. It helps keep money with a small business and makes their cash flow more stable.
Many shops have safety measures in place, such as limiting occupancy or offering contactless pick-up. 2. Eat local. Support your neighbors by dining at locally-owned establishments. Getting takeout or having food delivered? Order directly from the restaurant rather than through third-party sites that take a cut. When it comes to food shopping, opt for neighborhood grocers, which often carry produce from small family-owned farms and other locally-sourced goods. Many offer the same curbside pickup and delivery options as major chains. 3. Uplift diverse-owned businesses. Keep in mind that minority- and women-owned businesses have been hard hit by COVID-19. Many are counting on your patronage to survive. To help entrepreneurs stay open and support local jobs, Wells Fargo is deploying approximately $400 million from its Open for Business Fund to nonprofits serving small businesses. The initiative focuses on increasing access to training and flexible capital that businesses can use for rent, utilities, payroll and other business needs.
If you are a business owner looking for assistance and resources, visit wellsfargo.com/shoplocal to learn more. 4. Shine a light on your favorite business. Whether it’s expanding outdoor patios and installing heat lamps or updating tech to facilitate contactless checkout, small businesses have had to get creative to stay relevant. One simple way of supporting businesses as they make these changes is to follow them on social media and give positive reviews on websites like Yelp. As part of its “Many hearts. One community” campaign, Wells Fargo is highlighting the determination, resilience and creativity that so many small business have shown this past year. “Community has meant everything to me,” says Kadijatu Ahene, owner of Dija’s Touch Designs, which benefitted from Wells Fargo and Local Initiatives Support Corporation working together. “The challenges we’re dealing with have brought us closer. Whether its friends and neighbors checking on me and my girls, delivering food and more, COVID has reminded us that we need each other to move forward in unity.”

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Aspects call for care in preparing material for submission. Although you might find it bothersome to go over what you’ve done, the fact is, rechecking could be worth your time and effort. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The week is favorable for Bovines who welcome change. New career opportunities wait to be checked out. You also might want to get started on that home makeover you’ve been considering. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might have to be extra careful to protect that surprise you have planned, thanks to a certain snoopy someone who wants to know more about your plans than you’re willing to share. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Family ties are strong this week, although an old and still-unresolved problem might create some unpleasant moments.

A dispute with a family member might still need some smoothing over. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Be open with your colleagues about your plan to bring a workplace matter out into the open. You’ll want their support, and they’ll want to know how you’ll pull it off. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Trying to patch up an unraveling relationship is often easier said than done. But it helps to discuss and work out any problems that arise along the way. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) While your creative aspect remains high this week, you might want to call on your practical side to help work out the why and wherefore of an upcoming decision.

But a full explanation and a show of sympathy can work wonders. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Getting a job-related matter past some major obstacles should be easier this week.

San Diego podcast host seeks love on ‘The Bachelor’ By City News Service
REGION — A former television reporter and anchor turned podcast host from San Diego is among the record field of 32 bachelorettes vying for the affection of the first Black Bachelor, Matt James, as the 25th season of “The Bachelor” premiered Jan. 4 on ABC. Sarah Trott describes herself as a hopeless romantic hoping to find a man who prioritizes fitness and a healthy lifestyle just as much as she does and wants someone who will turn every day into an adventure better than the last. Trott also said it is very important to her to find a man whose commitment to faith is as strong as hers.
MATT JAMES (BACHELOR)
Trott said after she is married she hopes that when she and her husband are not spending time with their children, they will be doing work for the community and giving back to children in need.
The field of bachelorettes will be reduced to 24 by the end of the episode. James was initially cast to be a bachelor on the 16th season of “The Bachelorette.” When production was delayed because of the coronavirus pandemic, he was switched to be the lead for the latest season of “The Bachelor.” James was a receiver for the Wake Forest University football team in 201114; is a New York City-based associate with CBRE Group, Inc. the world's largest commercial real estate services and investment firm; and founded ABC Food Tours, a nonprofit organization that takes groups of children
from underserved elementary schools to restaurants in their local communities. ABC has long drawn criticism for the lack of diversity on “The Bachelor” franchise. “We know we have a responsibility to make sure the love stories we’re seeing onscreen are representative of the world we live in and we are proudly in service to our audience,” said ABC Entertainment President Karey Burke. “This is just the beginning, and we will continue to take action with regard to diversity issues on this franchise. We feel so privileged to have Matt as our first Black Bachelor and we cannot wait to embark on this journey with him.”
