Soon another location similar to the Oceanside one will open in Bakersfield followed by a much larger regional location in Los Angeles where even bigger tournaments will be held. “Localhost Oceanside is a great place where you can start training for those tournaments,” Carter said.

Showcasing Artists in the Village The Carlsbad Village Association is excited to be hosting a new popup art experience in collaboration with the City of Carlsbad’s Cultural Arts Office. While the Village has long been home to a variety of art events such as Art in the Village, the Makers Market, and even seasonal events such as the Carlsbad Village Art Walk, this is the first time the focus is on connecting local established artists with downtown businesses. This temporary art program is designed to create interaction between the business and creative arts sectors and will encourage local businesses to incorporate unique temporary artistic creations that enliven the Village. The Pop-up Art: A New Experience began Friday, April 2nd and will run through April 25th. Five local and regional glassblowing artists have a selection of their unique glass art on display in retail, service, and hospitality businesses in downtown Carlsbad. There are a total of 15 businesses participating. “We are really looking forward to hosting one of the artists,” said Joli Hatch, Assistant General Manager of the Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort. “The art piece that has been chosen for our location is stunning and we know our guests will enjoy learning more about the art form and the artist.” Each artist display will be accompanied by a placard introducing the artist that will also include a description of the art of glassblowing and local resources for Barrio Glassworks, located in the Village, as well as the glass program at Palomar College. There will be a QR Code and website link on the placard for more information. “Glassblowing has become very popular recently due to the success of the Netflix series Blown Away,” said Mary Devlin, owner of Barrio Glassworks. “However, the art form itself dates back to the 1st century BC. I know the public will really enjoy learning more about the process and will be amazed at the beauty of the pieces on display.” A list of the 15 participating businesses, their location and hours, along with artist biographies, will be available on the Carlsbad Village Association website at www.carlsbad-village.com. Stay tuned to learn where art pops-up next in the Village!

Charter school files suit Carlsbad students return to campus against state ed funding  District OKs By Samantha Nelson

REGION — A class-action lawsuit filed by three local public charter schools fighting state defunding has been certified to represent more than 300 public charter schools throughout the state. Filed in September 2020 and led by The Classical Academies, River and Empire Springs charter schools and The Learning Choice Academy, the lawsuit Reyes v. State of California challenges the State of California’s decision to not fund newly enrolled students in “non-classroom based” public charter schools that specialize in providing at-home, remote

or hybrid learning. In California, a school is considered non-classroom based if more than 20% of learning occurs off-campus. These types of schools often serve students who are immune-compromised or hospitalized, students who have been bullied at other schools, students who are either academically behind or advanced, who are Olympic athletes, actors, homeless or who move frequently due to their parents being in the military. Historically, California’s education funding followed the student, meaning that if a student leaves a public school for a public charter school, the funding for that particular student would follow them to the new school. Last summer, the state decided to not fund new students at these particular types of public charter schools during the 20202021 school year. “For the very first time ever, state funding didn’t follow the student,” said Cameron Curry, executive director at Classical Academies. By that point, Classical Academies and other similar public charter schools had already enrolled students for that school year, meaning they would have to provide for these new

students without the state funding they would have traditionally had. The lawsuit asserts that 5-year-old Olena Reyes was waitlisted at Classical Academies due to the defunding move, preventing her from attending school with her older brother Santino and blocking access to a potentially beneficial education program that will help the young girl, who like her brother is on the autism spectrum. Curry said the school, which has several campus locations throughout Escondido and Oceanside, has had to dip into its reserves to continue providing for the nearly 1,200 students it already enrolled throughout the summer last year before the state decided to defund non-classroombased charter schools. Regional charter schools saw an influx of students coming from public schools due to the COVID-19 pandemic last year, especially in the beginning when some school districts were slow to respond. Classical Academies on the other hand had pivoted quickly, Curry said. “Parents weren’t getting anything from their local school districts,” he said. “When they heard Classical Academies’ students were meeting with teachers virtually, they thought, ‘I want that for my kid.’” According to Classical Academies and its legal representatives, the state breached its constitutional, statutory and contractual obligations to fund each student’s education at the public school they choose. Then last month, a state court ordered class certification of the lawsuit, making it the first class-action lawsuit involving charter schools in California. The court’s order granting class certification is significant because a victory will apply to the state’s 308 non-classroombased charter schools that serve nearly 200,000 students and ensure their right to be funded. “We now carry the weight of 308 schools, which represents 29% of all charter public schools in the state with our litigation,” stated Paul Minney, an attorney with Young, Minney & Corr, LLP, who is representing the plaintiff schools. “This decision elevates these schools and validates the needs they all have for access to constitutionally guaranteed funding for students and their public education.” Curry said he is looking forward to the lawsuit’s day in court, which is currently scheduled for July. Still, the fight may continue sometime after that hearing. “I anticipate that we will win the case and that the state will appeal,” Curry said.

full-time return option for kids By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Students are back in school full time for the first time in more than one year. On March 29, the Carlsbad Unified School District (CUSD) opened its campuses to middle and high school students who chose to return as San Diego County dropped to the red tier in relation to COVID-19. The county is expected to move into the less-restrictive orange tier of the state's coronavirus reopening system on April 7. A reason for campuses reopening was the California Department of Public Health's recent easing of physical distancing requirements for students in the classroom. Facemasks are still required and schools must continue to install new ventilation equipment. The state's latest recommendation, in line with the Centers for Disease Control, is for three feet of distance, although it is not required. On March 24, the CUSD board of trustees approved combining the two cohorts so any interested student could return to school five days per week. “We’re excited that our students have the opportunity to be on campus five days a week, and I think it’s going really well,” said Superintendent Dr. Ben Churchill. “The CDPH guidance changed … and said physical distancing was no longer required.” In late January, Carlsbad Unified submitted a

waiver to the county and state seeking to reopen, as it believed it had fulfilled the requirements to return to in-person learning. The county approved the waiver, but the state denied the application citing the district was not in compliance. A team from the county's Health and Human Services Agency visited the campuses in January and approved the plans. However, it appears the state changed some of those guidelines without notifying the district, leaving district officials, parents and students frustrated and angry. Currently, the district is also requiring surveillance testing, symptom screening, plexiglass barriers, disinfecting, sanitizing and stable student groups as additional safety measures. Churchill said most classrooms have between three to five feet of distance and all middle and

high school students are in a rolling block schedule. Additionally, about 50% of high school students are back on campus and about 70% of middle school students, he said. Elementary students, meanwhile, have been back in school since the fall, Churchill said. “It helps with physical distancing when half your students are at home,” Churchill said. “For students on campus, it’s been generally positive.” Many parents and students applauded the return, including Carlsbad High School junior Audrey Koenig. “I think it’s a step in the right direction on getting back,” she said. “I think none of us were expecting the way it happened and the speed it did, and I know … some of my teachers are online. I am happy to be back.” Koenig said some teachers don’t allow students to collaborate in

the classroom because it would exclude the virtual students. Koenig said students can’t even drink the water due to the new guidelines. The 16-year-old also said it’s important for students to get back asynchronous Wednesdays, saying it is important for their mental health. The 30-minute class teaches subjects like writing professional emails and more, while then the students have the rest of the day free from class, although teachers still assign work, she explained. A rash of suicides has hit Carlsbad schools hard over the past month after several students took their own lives, Koenig said. “Many students think Wednesday is vital for mental health because this hasn’t been an easy year,” Koenig said. “It kind of is a slap in the face, we voiced how we felt and it was blown off by the school board.”

Ethnic studies battle moves to local school districts

Homelessness in North County around the county Jim Desmond

e’ve all heard the same political campaign speech, ‘We need to solve homelessness,’ and while it sounds good, that promise which has been made time and time again, usually lacks substance. San Diego County continues to struggle with an on-going crisis of homelessness with an estimated 22,000 people experiencing homelessness at some point throughout the year. While much of the focus on homelessness is in the urban core, North San Diego County feels the effects. In 2019, 1,540 homeless individuals were counted in one night, in the North County. Despite millions of dol-

lars being spent, improvement has been limited. Earlier this week, I partnered with Supervisor Lawson-Remer on a board letter, which looks to make a significant impact to address North County’s homeless population. The action develops a North County pilot program, which includes teams of outreach staff and will be compromised of highly qualified social workers, which will be deployed in cities to develop trust and build relationships with homeless individuals. Working closely with each City government’s homeless personnel and resources, the County staff will leverage resources regionally, across jurisdictional lines. They will be able to transport clients and will have access to funds to provide for incidentals such as clothing, food, help obtaining identification and short-term motel vouchers as part of the engagement. This engagement will lead

to services and housing, getting this vulnerable population off the street, making a dent in the crisis facing many of our cities. Currently, each of the eight cities in North County have various service providers, which deploy resources and programs, however in order to truly tackle this problem, the elected leaders in these cities have come together to coordinate a regional approach and collaborate with the County. This will provide a greater level of outreach and support to unhoused individuals. For too long those experiencing homelessness and the residents of San Diego County have been given empty promise upon empty promise. The time for talk is done. It’s time for San Diego County and North County to step up to address this problem together. Supervisor Jim Desmond is the San Diego County Supervisor for District 5.

The crisis continues at the EDD

By Asm. Marie Waldron

he Employment Development Department (EDD) has been mired in crisis for more than a year now. The massive backlog in unemployment claim processing hasn’t really budged, millions of daily calls go unanswered, fraud is rampant — estimated at $11 to $31 billion, and appeals can take over three months; the failure list is long. There’s plenty of blame to go around too. Former Governor Jerrry Brown ignored a 2011 audit that pointed out EDD’s shortcomings, and new directives from the Governor have proven to be inadequate and ineffective. So, what can be done to fix this mess? I recently met with newly appointed EDD Director Rita Saenz to dis-

cuss these issues. Naturally, she is attempting to make needed changes, something that’s always difficult during an ongoing crisis. She needs help, and for our part, the Legislature is stepping up. I have introduced AB 24, which will ensure that EDD claimants receive decisions about their applications within 30 days. I’ve also joined Senator John Laird (D-Santa Cruz) to co-author SB 390, which requires EDD to prepare and implement comprehensive plans for increased benefit claims during recessions. Other legislation will establish better oversight and accountability at EDD, along with stringent anti-fraud measures, including requiring EDD to stop posting full social security numbers in mailings to claimants.

And benefits would be made available by direct deposit, instead of through insecure debit cards. Thousands of businesses have shut down, many permanently, and millions of workers are unemployed due to state-mandated closures. The inability of EDD to meet its responsibilities and provide timely unemployment benefits is unconscionable. Legislative fixes work, but even bi-partisan bills take months to pass and more months to be implemented. EDD needs to be fixed now, but only the Governor can take immediate action regarding agencies under his direct authority. Assembly Republican Leader Marie Waldron, R-Escondido, represents the 75th Assembly District in the California Legislature, which includes Escondido, San Marcos and Vista.

fter a two-year battle, California now has a model ethnic studies curriculum for its elementary and high schools. But no one knows how many schools will actually use the 700-plus page study plan, as there is no state mandate forcing anyone graduating from high school to pass such a course. That’s because Gov. Gavin Newsom unexpectedly vetoed AB 331 last fall, killing a bill to impose just such a requirement even though he okayed a similar condition for graduation from California State University campuses. Newsom explained that he didn’t sign the bill because conflicts over the K-12 ethnic studies program were still playing out. But the plan was okayed unanimously last month by the state Board of Education. Yet, the controversies it spurred remain strong. All this means the battle now shifts from the state level to local school boards, which will decide what parts of the model curriculum to use, what to ignore and what to leave up to individual teachers. This is not a new fight. Even as the curriculum underwent revisions over the last year, school boards in places like Albany and Alhambra, San Francisco, Oakland and Hayward endorsed it sight unseen. They did this at the urging of advocates of a school of academic thought known as “critical ethnic studies” and the organization that pushes it, the Critical Ethnic Studies (CES) Association. Several websites describe the central question guiding CES as “How do the histories of colonialism and conquest, racial chattel slavery and white supremacist patriarchies… affect, inspire and unsettle

california focus

thomas d. elias

scholarship...” In brief, CES believes African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Asian American/Pacific Islander Americans have always been downtrodden in America. Its advocates contend – and got this view enshrined in the new curriculum – that pale-skinned immigrant groups gave up all or most of their prior identities when they arrived in America, eagerly assuming a position of “white privilege.” This contention persists even though the new curriculum has sections on the difficulties encountered by immigrant Irish, Sikhs and Jews, among others. It’s also a bunch of hooey, say leaders of some of those groups. One is Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, director of the AMCHA Initiative that tracks campus anti-Semitism. “The curriculum… has a politically- and activist-driven mission that will incite hate and division and is dangerous for all high school students,” she said. “Profoundly disturbing is the portrayal of Jews… as white and privileged at a time when anti-Jewish sentiment, hostility and violence has reached alarming levels. Indoctrinating students to view Jews (that way puts) an even larger target on the back of every Jewish student.” It’s the same for Irish and Armenians, who are declared privileged despite decades of discrimination extending to property codicils that until recently of-

ten forbade sales to them and some other groups. While scores of university scholars, religious leaders and other nationally recognized experts opposed much of the new curriculum, no one knows who might get involved in the local battles now that this plan is official state policy. When CES activists began approaching school boards last spring, they met little or no organized opposition. So several districts endorsed and a few actually began teaching units from the then-draft curriculum about figures like self-described “lifetime Communist” Angela Davis, former Black Panther leader Bobby Seale and other violent, divisive figures. In one of the few places that saw substantial expert opposition to this campaign, the Vallejo school board rejected the curriculum after Robert Lawson, a school board member and former history teacher, said “People shouldn’t be fooled that ethnic studies are mainly to instill pride in one’s heritage. It’s a means of getting even.” The bottom line is that the curriculum is little better than what was roundly rejected as hate-inducing in 2019. But it did attain the level of accuracy and balance needed to get the state school board’s support. That means this material ought to be viewed as merely a bunch of suggestions, not a blueprint, when local schools plan approaches to ethnic studies. It also means Newsom – or his recall-induced successor, if there is one – would be wise to veto any new bill establishing a high school ethnic studies mandate if one should reach his desk later this year.

Coronavirus County to orange tier, curfew lifted for restaurants, bars By City News Service

REGION — San Diego County has moved into the less-restrictive orange tier of the state’s coronavirus reopening system, and a 10 p.m. curfew for all restaurants, bars, breweries, distilleries and wineries was lifted as public health officials reported 328 new infections and three deaths. The county was able to move to the orange tier Wednesday because the state administered 4 million vaccinations in low-income communities hardest hit by the pandemic. That goal triggered an adjustment of the state’s Blueprint for a Safer Economy, allowing San Diego County — which has reported fewer than 6 cases per every 100,000 residents for the last two weeks — to move up. The orange tier includes restaurants being able to operate at 50% of capacity — or 200 customers, whichever is fewer — while bars without food service may begin outdoors operations. Museums, zoos, aquariums, movie theaters and places of worship may have 50% of capacity indoors. Amusement parks may increase attendance to 25% of capacity for in-state visitors. Gyms, bowling alleys and family entertainment centers can allow 25% capacity indoors and indoor pools can reopen. Sporting events, concerts and other live events can increase attendance to 33% of capacity for in-state fans. There will be no capacity limits for indoor retail shopping. Wednesday’s COVID-19 data increased the county’s cumulative totals to 272,194 cases and 3,588 since the pandemic began. The three deaths were men who died between March 3 and March 21. One was in his 80s, one in his 70s and one in his 60s, health officials said. Of the 14,322 tests reported Wednesday, 2% returned positive. The 14- day running average as tallied by the county is 2.2%. More than 2.06 million COVID-19 vaccine doses have been delivered to San Diego County, according to the San Diego County

Health & Human Services Agency, and 1,066,410 county residents — or 39.7% -have received at least one dose of the two-dose vaccines. A total of 625,632 people in San Diego County — or 23.3% — are fully vaccinated. These numbers include both county residents and those who work in San Diego County. The state’s goal is to vaccinate 75% of people 16 and older to achieve herd immunity — around 2.02 million San Diego County residents. Seven new community outbreaks were reported Wednesday: three in business settings, two in grocery/retail settings, one in a faith-based setting and one in a restaurant/bar setting. On a broader scale, California health officials said Tuesday that all state COVID-19 restrictions on businesses, gatherings and recreational activities will be lifted June 15, although a mask mandate will remain in place. The June 15 date could be adjusted if the state begins over the next two months to experience rises in hospitalization numbers or a sudden lack of vaccine supply. Officials urged all residents to ensure the move occurs on time by continuing to practice infec-

tion-control measures. Both San Diego State University and UC San Diego detailed plans Wednesday to return to in-person learning for the fall semester. UCSD initially announced the change Monday before providing more details Wednesday. UCSD officials said they expects around 90% of students and 85% of on-site staff to be fully vaccinated by the fall quarter. Campus residence halls will be at near 100% occupancy, with no more than two students per room, according to a UCSD statement. Facial coverings will still be required in all public spaces, while physical distancing guidelines are expected to be reduced from six feet to three feet in most settings. Nearly 10,000 students have been living on campus since fall 2020, while thousands more living off campus have attended daily in-person classes. During that time, the school boasts an infection rate of less than .05% among those students, according to the university. SDSU had fewer details readily available, but announced plans to share updated guidance next week for faculty members and researchers intended to allow them to gain increased ac-

cess to their on-campus research and academic spaces this spring. A more comprehensive return to academic spaces is expected in late summer, according to SDSU officials. Over the next few weeks, deans and associate deans will be working with department chairs, school directors and instructional faculty to explore options and update the course schedule as appropriate. The SDSU fall schedule release has been pushed back to May 10 from April 12, and fall registration has been shifted from April 19 to May 25 to allow for more time formulating schedules.

ment of Public Health, via the U.S. Centers for Disease Control Prevention, according to Dr. Wilma Wooten, the county’s public health officer. The supervisors also formally accepted a $629,000 federal grant from the CDC that will allow the county to focus on a racial and ethnic approach to community health. Supervisors additionally approved establishing a framework on how to spend future COVID-related relief funding, courtesy of the American Rescue Plan Act, which Congress recently passed and President Joe Biden signed into law. When it’s available, ARPA will provide hundreds of millions of dollars in COVID relief, including rental assistance and up to $40 million in hazard pay for county employees, officials said. Board Chairman Nathan Fletcher cautioned that ARPA funding hasn’t officially been allocated, so supervisors and county staffers have time to finalize how that money will be spent. “One-half of these funds we won’t receive until next year,’’ Fletcher said. “We may want to see what the world looks like then. We’re not locking anything in stone.’’ The board voted after hearing an update on COVID prevention measures and from the public, many of whom are county employees who said they needed hazard pay for being frontline workers and putting their lives at risk during a pandemic. Supervisors had their

own requests from ARPA, including $20 million for broadband, $25 million in legal services for those in need, and millions of dollars for mental health treatment and utility assistance. Supervisors Joel Anderson and Jim Desmond said they would oppose hazard pay for county workers. Anderson said his opposition was not meant to disrespect county employees. “I represent a very poor district and can’t face my constituents having given COVID bonuses,’’ he said. Desmond thanked county workers for all their efforts, but noted that non-county workers have also made sacrifices. Last year, supervisors approved spending $390 million in federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act money, along with $40 million out of the county’s general fund, to help residents with financial needs. That money also helped the county and various partners, including hospitals, with efforts to combat the spread of the coronavirus.

DeMaio, residents launch recall effort against Schumacher By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD —A wellknown Republican radio host launched a recall campaign seeking to remove Carlsbad City Councilwoman Cori Schumacher from office during an April 5 rally in front of a crowd at Pine Avenue Park in Carlsbad. Carl DeMaio, founder of Reform California, said Carlsbad residents have had enough of Schumacher’s behavior, vicious attacks on residents and “pay-to-play” schemes with her political donors. “The misbehavior’s got to stop. The grandstanding has to stop,” DeMaio said. “The sort of misbehavior and misdeeds she’s engaged in, it has no place in this community. My hope is (that) other city officials in our region and across the state, take note. We will not tolerate it and you will be removed from office.” DeMaio said the Democratic city leader attacks residents who disagree with her positions rather than engaging in dialogue or taking their concerns into consideration. DeMaio also cited Schumacher’s recent legal woes after a North County judge struck down her civil harassment restraining order filed against two Carlsbad residents and one former resident, ruling the councilwoman’s actions violated their constitutional right to free speech. DeMaio said this was just

one of several examples of Schumacher’s inability to govern and take criticism. Katie Taylor, a small business owner for 35 years, said Schumacher also engages in political race-baiting in addition to policies aimed at harming business owners. Taylor, like DeMaio, slammed Schumacher for filing a harassment order against residents critical of her policies, calling her “corrosive and divi-

sive.” “Cori Schumacher has been so divisive for Carlsbad,” Taylor said. “Everything is about race, she’s hurt small business owners, she filed that suit against her constituents … and she is toxic. Pure toxicity for the City of Carlsbad.” Joining DeMaio at Monday’s rally in Carlsbad were 10 local business owners “sponsoring” the recall, many of whom chid-

ed Schumacher for pushing to adopt an “enhanced” COVID-19 enforcement policy directed at small businesses operating in violation of state and county health mandates in January. Also, DeMaio condemned her proposed project labor agreement for the Clean Energy Alliance, a Community Choice Aggregation program set to launch on May 1. The union-friend-

ly language contained within Schumacher’s labor proposal caught the CEA board of directors off-guard and was not approved. According to campaign filings, Schumacher received more than $40,000 in donations from the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Union 569 in late 2019 and early 2020. Schumacher did not respond to a request for comment. Schumacher’s supporters and critics of DeMaio took to social media in response to the rally, blasting the Republican as an outsider attempting to recall a duly elected city official. Stephanie Wells wrote on Facebook: “How much is this outsider going to cost Carlsbad residents with this ridiculous recall attempt?!?” “Stay out of Carlsbad, DeMaio,” Bruce Headrick wrote.

And Dave Karraker wrote, “Republicans can’t win on policy, so now it’s all about screaming ‘unfair.’” DeMaio filed the recall paperwork on April 5 and once all the responses to the petition are certified then signatures can be collected for a special election. The former San Diego City Councilmember has spearheaded a series of recall and repeal efforts in the past few years with mixed results. In 2017, DeMaio led a successful recall campaign against former State Sen. Josh Newman, but his Gas Tax Repeal campaign the following year fell short at the polls. More recently, DeMaio has led signature drives to help recall Gov. Gavin Newsom, a movement that has gained considerable momentum over the past several months. DeMaio said his group must secure about 3,800 signatures and believes the effort will be successful. Taylor echoed those sentiments as well. She said people are tired of Schumacher’s behavior and combativeness toward constituents. DeMaio added he expects an election sometime during the summer. Reform California also launched a website, citycouncilrecall.com, outlining their concerns, while also asking for monetary contributions, signatures to the petition and seeking volunteers.

ic plans for the 2021-2022 school year or an option for students to remain in distance learning for the coming school year. “I think this is a big move in support of our students,” Trustee Michael Allman said. “I am 100% supportive of this resolution.” The lone no vote on the resolution came from Trustee Kristina Young whose hesitation to support the resolution stemmed from worries the board might use it to force students to attend five days a week before the end of the school year. “As board members, we’re supposed to look at all the students. I just want to put some safeguards out there to make sure for the remainder of the year to assure them that we do have all the interest of our students at heart,” Young said. Public sentiment continues to be mixed on the topic with some, like Justin Davis, a junior at Canyon Crest Academy, not convinced that the board is doing all they can to keep the teachers and students safe. “I would like to stress the importance for a distance-learning option for students who aren’t necessarily comfortable going back at this time or at any time in the near future. You can’t just go mindlessly galavanting about like nothing is wrong in the middle of a pandemic,” Davis said. “These parents keep going on about what the students want but they refuse to take into account the students themselves. I believe my voice speaks for so many students when I say that we need to take this pandemic seriously when it comes to reopening.” District resident Lisa Ritchie expressed her support for the resolution as well as her negative thoughts about the virtual learned model used by San Dieguito Union. “We need five days, we need the old bell schedule and pre-pandemic instructional hours reinstated. I just want to say the virtual model has really impacted our kids negatively on a number of fronts,” she said. Board President Mo Muir and Allman attempted to convince Young to vote yes, but those efforts were unsuccessful. “I’m not sure what else we can do. I just wish we were all cohesive,” Trustee Melisse Mossy said of the vote. Carrie Su, a student member of the board from Canyon Crest Academy shared her thoughts from a student perspective before she voted no on the resolution. “By choosing to go back to four days a week after spring break where students may be traveling, we are driving a deeper wedge between in-person learners and remote learners.”

Redistricting group dismiss contractor’s partisan nexus By Dan Brendel

REGION — The California Citizens Redistricting Commission, which will redraw federal and state legislative districts following the 2020 census, recently awarded consulting contracts to two firms, one with open ties to Democratic campaigns. The commission is an independent body, established by a 2008 ballot initiative, to prevent gerrymandering. It comprises 14 members, vetted but not appointed directly by the state legislature. Commissioners include five Republicans, five Democrats (among them, Encinitas’ Patricia Sinay), and four members not affiliated with either of those parties. The commission announced March 30 that it hired HaystaqDNA and Q2 Data & Research, LLC — Wisconsin and California firms, respectively — “to assist in the professional and technical drawing of district lines.” HaystaqDNA led “microtargeting” efforts for Barack Obama and Bernie Sanders’ campaigns in 2008 and 2016, according to the company’s web site. Such efforts use big data and predictive modeling to hone voter outreach through digital advertising, social me-

dia, and the like. Strategic Telemetry, another firm sharing two top officers from HaystaqDNA, also worked on John Kerry’s campaign in 2004. Federal Election Commission records show contributions totaling some $50,000 over many years from HaystaqDNA employees to ActBlue, a nonprofit Democratic fundraising platform, as well as numerous Democratic candidates and organizations. “As one of the Republican commissioners, I have complete faith in the Commission’s use of fully public data and a completely open process for drawing its maps,” Commissioner Russell Yee of Alameda said in

a statement. “That transparency is what ensures fairness regardless of the partisan leanings of any of our contractors, staff, or we commissioners ourselves. … [T]he public good is well served with people of different political persuasions working together in good faith to uphold our laws and support our democracy.” “As for the political contributions and beliefs of the consultants, the RFP [Request for Proposals] required extensive disclosure of the proposer's redistricting experience and independence/conflict of interests including all related to politics,” Jane Andersen, another Alameda County Republican, said in a state-

ment. “The Commission has full authority to disqualify or terminate the contract with or without cause, particularly about disclosures or conflicts of interest. Not disclosing something would have been a significant issue. We found no such issues. While their political beliefs may not be the same for all of the Commission, as all the redistricting work is done in public with public input and decisions are made by the Commission, they are irrelevant when it comes to this nonpartisan process. We check politics at the door, and get to work for all of California.” The Coast News did not find any partisan connection for the other contract

awardee, Q2 Data & Research. Taken together, the two firms will receive $1.5 million for their services, according to the RFP. “HaystaqDNA and Q2 Data & Research, LLC served as technical consultants to the Arizona and California independent redistricting commissions, respectively, in 2011,” according to a commission press release. “Haystaq has worked on a number of redistricting projects. These include U.S. House and State Senate maps created and adopted by the Florida Supreme Court in 2015, as well as a friend of the court map they submitted for Pennsylvania in 2018 ….”

Del Mar CEO pleads guilty to not paying taxes By City News Service

DEL MAR — A Del Mar-based CEO admitted failing to pay nearly $5 million in payroll taxes, penalties and interest to the IRS, the Department of Justice announced today. Michael Todd Lucas, CEO of i3 Brands Inc., also controlled a number of other companies and "caused the businesses to spend thousands of dollars for his personal benefit'' while failing to fully pay taxes withheld from employees' paychecks to the IRS, according to the Department of Justice. The DOJ said Lucas "had significant control over the finances of these companies,'' but from 2008 to 2017, "failed to pay more than $4.9 million in payroll taxes, penalties and interest.'' The tax loss exceeds $1.4 million, according to court documents. Lucas, who pleaded guilty Tuesday in San Diego federal court, faces a maximum potential penalty of five years in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 4.

Fed grants for tech firms prevalent in county By Dan Brendel

REGION — North County small businesses have received federal grants to commercialize myriad technologies, contributing to San Diego County receiving the second most such grants nationwide. The grants act as seed money, helping small firms compete against industrial giants, said Louis Haerle of Seacoast Science in Carlsbad. Unlike private venture capital investors, Haerle said, Uncle Sam doesn’t take an equity stake or commercial rights for the product or service developed. Haerle’s company, which manufactures chemical sensors, used one such grant for research to help the Army detect drug labs in South and Central America. From that, the company developed a miniature gas chromatograph, about the size of a shoebox, which it sells mostly to college chemistry departments, he said. Various federal agencies award grants for commercial projects like these, on a competitive basis,

to watch all these great gamers and be entertained while working.” While the facility includes both consoles and PCs, it’s more aligned with computer gaming, which typically has higher graphics and resolution, faster gameplay and a wider variety of games to choose from than consoles. Amateurs like Carter can come to Localhost and learn the proper skills it takes to be a PC gamer. “We’re going to offer training, boot camps and summer camps along with hosting tournaments,” Carter said. According to Carter, e-sports are growing in popularity. “It’s a social interaction kind of like when you’re in marching band,” she said. “You’re going to forge those same kinds of relationships, same kind of camaraderie here.” Localhost is a place where friends can come and hang out for a few hours and play games together, like Darrius Addison and Antonio Avalos who played “Rainbow Six

ceived awards. Seacoast Science in Carlsbad and Parabilis Space Technologies in San Marcos have won the most, with 12 each. In addition to its work with the Army, Seacoast Science has also received grants from the National Institute of Health, EPA and NASA, Haerle said.

Neither Addison nor Avalos have a PC at home that they can use. “This is one of our first experiences with PC,” Avalos said. Both young men have been interested in getting to PC gaming for some time, but buying or building your own PC setup can be extremely expensive. For them, it’s far cheaper to visit Localhost and rent a spot at one of the PC chairs with all the proper, top-quality equipment and high-speed Internet they need already provided. Carter noted that visiting Localhost can help amateurs determine if PC gaming is for them and if it’s worth investing into their own equipment, which they can also bring in to use at Localhost. “Even if I do get my own PC, I will still be sure to come here,” Avalos said. “This is our new chill-out spot.” Localhost Oceanside is located at 459 College Blvd., Suite 9, within the doors of the plaza’s new Five Below store, a partner company to the new e-sports facility.

sectors,” he said. “Instead of a written assessment, we decided to build something that would be more exciting and scalable.” Over 50 school districts so far have purchased the program, he said. eSAT Global in Solana Beach won a grant to develop software-defined radios, which users can adapt for different purposes by reconfiguring software rather than hardware. The company sells its equipment primarily for livestock tracking, Chief Technology Officer Michael Parr said. Qubitekk in Vista has won several awards to develop quantum telecommunications equipment. The firm’s tech uses quantum entanglement, a subatomic physics phenomenon, to secure transmissions against snooping.

by resident Arnold Wiesel, calling for its repeal. Since then the city has worked with referendum proponents to avoid a special election. The ordinance established 20 dwelling units per acre within the city’s North Commercial Zone on Jimmy Durante Boulevard at San Dieguito Drive for low-income housing. Proponents previously provided a list of requests to the city that would make them feel comfortable withdrawing the referendum. The city has considered those requests and while working with legal counsel on both sides has drafted an agreement with the proponents. The city hopes to finalize the agreement by April 19. “We don’t have the same urgency or time constraints that we previously did so if we were to put

Cyclopure, with its corporate office in Encinitas, received awards in 2017, 2018 and 2021 to develop residential water purification technology. Its DEXSORB system aims to remove micropollutants — such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, chemicals used in various consumer products — from drinking water. “When PFAS are detected in community water, water sources are typically closed down and households are provided with bottled water,” CEO Frank Cassou said. “We plan to launch our first implementation of DEXSORB for home use in a gravity pitcher filter in June.”

Nanotools Bioscience, registered in Encinitas with labs now in La Jolla, has grants to develop uses for graphene, a super thin and strong carbon material. “We are working on practical implementations of optoelectronic (aka, photovoltaic) properties of graphene … for biomedical applications, including optical cardiac pacemakers and accelerating maturation of stem-cell-derived cells,” CEO Alex Savtchenko said. The Social Express in Encinitas won grants to develop Teen Career Path, “the first educational video game for career exploration,” CEO Marc Zimmerman said.

this over to the next council meeting, I think that would be fine,” said Barry Schultz, assistant city attorney for Del Mar. The last remaining hurdle in negotiations appears to be regarding a wildfire evacuation plan for the Canyon Crest area of Del Mar. The problem is that some of that area is out of Del Mar’s jurisdiction. “So we will need to collaborate with the city of San Diego on an evacuation plan,” City Manager Ashley Jones said. “The other issue to consider is we share our fire management staff with two other cities. So there is also a capacity issue.” Del Mar is able to commit to a series of community meetings by the end of June while also working “very diligently” to produce a plan in no later than 12 months. “We hope to give it the attention and time it needs to get it done sooner, but given all the factors I would not feel comfortable

committing to having that plan done in sooner than 12 months,” Jones said. The proponents recently requested the plan be finalized inside of six months but the city is unwilling to commit to that timeframe and continues to be in communication with the proponents on this issue. Negotiations with the proponents will continue but the optimism among the council and their legal representation was clear in the hopes all of the final obstacles would be dealt with for the referendum to be ultimately withdrawn and avoid a special election that could cost $100,000 and $175,000, according to the city. A version of the withdrawal agreement was presented to the council Monday night but revisions will still be made as communications on both sides continue. “I think we really are squeaky close and it’s nice to have gotten to this point,” Mayor Terry Gaasterland said.

Sports Pandemic doesn’t slow CUSD Champions By Steve Puterski

Sports for all ages break out around North County

t was opening week and everyone knows what follows: the smell of cut grass, the stands being jammed and the whack of balls being walloped by wood bats ricocheting around the stadium. North County Senior Softball's grand opening had all that, too. Well, kind of. In the NCSS, for players 50-and-older, the aroma is of an artificial turf with a hint of BENGAY. The seats reveal one spectator and there’s the ping from a juiced-up aluminum bat rather than any offensive sound heard at Petco Park. The Padres, these guys aren’t. Instead they’ve kept the faith that playing softball, gaining friends and enjoying each other’s company is something with no age limit. More than 100 NCSS players, mostly from North County, return after a year lost to the pandemic. They’re safely knocking off the rust, like so much dirt from the big boys’ cleats, as they embrace softball in their twice-weekly, six-team endeavor. “Everyone was really excited to get back out here again,” said Lake San Marcos’ Steve Ellingson, 71, and the manager of Team 6. “Really, we are all just like little kids.” The youthful smiles outweighed the senior heartache no matter which direction one looked. Then again reminders of the participants’ limitations were but a pitch away. One gentleman took a fly ball off his skull and another one pulled up lame aggressively rounding third base. “Ankle or hamstring?” his concerned teammates asked. “Hamstring,” he said, and their groan was noticeable.

What’s notable is grown men still circling the bases in a game they learned decades ago. The average age in NCSS is 67, with more than a couple players north of 80. “One of the older guys used to play for the Angels in the minors,” Jim Dionne, 76, the NCSS commissioner said. “And he still hits the ball really hard.” It’s easy to see our sporting life find a pulse again after a year on pause. These senior players are just one example of various athletic leagues blooming for people of all ages seeking to stretch and swap stories. “For us it’s social and we get our exercise,” Dionne said. “That’s two things we look for after we retire.” Dionne peeked out the window after his career as a lawyer in Seattle and determined he could play three months of softball there. Or move to Carlsbad and go year round in a league that has three 25game seasons, all played on the City of Carlsbad’s diamonds, which are considered gems on the senior softball circuit. “To Carlsbad, softball is important,” Dionne said. “We rent the fields and they take really good care of them and us.” It’s all for one and one for all as Team 5 forges ahead of Team 6 in the eighth inning. Team 6's rally falls short and it losses, 26-25, because behind home plate the grease board says so. But there were no skid marks from those exciting Stagecoach Park. For these players with age comes perspective, and win or lose was there a better place to be on a cloudless Tuesday morning? “It’s a game that you love, no matter how old you are, and you’re around people that feel the same way,” said Ellingson, who’s retired from the apparel business. “This is competitive, but it’s also about camaraderie.” It’s also about being TURN TO SPORTS TALK ON A15

CARLSBAD — Leadership, mentoring and inspiration is what 34 “champions” are bringing to elementary students. The Carlsbad Unified School District champions program is an opportunity for high school seniors to inspire the next generation through their passions. This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the program evolved this year to include a healthy habit component as students were isolated and suffering from a different environment than in years past. Lead by CUSD Student Services Specialist Rosemary Eshelman, said the program encourages the seniors, a mix of Carlsbad and Sage Creek high school seniors, to share their paths through their time in the district, future goals, personal passions and career aspirations. The program began in 2012, Eshelman said. “They are ambassadors

that go out to the elementary schools,” she said, although due to the pandemic the champions did not have contact with the younger students. “They get in front of you people to let them know of their path and what they’ve done throughout school … and how to stay true to themselves.” The champions pick a subject, read a book about it and then librarians at the elementary schools pull the books, also giving the elementary students trading cards of the champions and collaborate with the teachers to incorporate those subjects into the curriculum. Librarians Andrea Oshima and Teresa Timm of Aviara Oaks and Buena Vista elementary schools, respectively, said they also work to push out videos from the champions so each teacher can share those lessons. Additionally, they help the students find books on their respective interested subjects to learn more about a cham-

pions cause. The trading cards, however, are a hot commodity for the youngsters, the three women said. The kids trade and collect the cards as they would baseball cards, while Eshelman said the seniors are “rock stars” in the eyes of the elementary students. “The upper grades reaction has been to the videos has been this is something new, something special and individuals just like us who have been staying home,” Timm said. “Now, they get to see these older kids model these healthy habits. The kids thoroughly love them, and they are so creative. It really engages the student.” Champions Nolan Meja (SCHS), Nathan Lu and Casey Lavin (CHS) and their peers haven’t been able to interact with the younger students this year, but they still have had a blast creating their videos, sharing their passions and helping the students develop positive pathways to navigate their time

in school. Meja has championed how to set goals, along with promoting integrity, strong moral character and academic achievement. Lu presented his passion on environmental sustainability and Lavin helped set up a scavenger hunt in the Village to keep youngsters active. Meja said he’s also incorporated his career aspirations and encouraging the elementary students to dream big. Lu created a Bingo card for students to play, as they can score Bingo by checking of specific actions to be more environmentally friendly. But the three seniors also took lessons of their own from being mentors, Lavin said. “I knew I had a lot of learning and personal growth throughout high school and my time in the district,” she added. “I wanted to share my experiences with the younger students in order to help them reach their maximum potential.”

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

With a climate that includes the moist, marine layer and lots of sunlight, any backyard gardener can have strawberries that produce for months during the growing season. Set out Everbearing plants in the spring for summer and fall berries, according to Luke Girling, of Cyclops Farm in Fallbrook. “The best varieties will be those that produce for the entire season such as Seascape or Albion,” Girling said. How to plant Plant carefully; the crown should be above soil level since a buried crown will rot. The topmost roots should be ¼ inch beneath soil since exposed roots will dry out. For a small yard, grow a dozen in a sunny spot placing them in a raised bed or in the vegetable garden. On the patio, use the traditional strawberry pot with berries popping out the sides. Water

Recipe from 1950 As a Midwesterner, I have wonderful memories of the strawberry-rhubarb shortcake my grandmother VanDenBerg made every spring. She became a widow during the 1950s and lived in a tiny bungalow apartment in Milwaukee. Although she earned a small salary as a cook at the local VFW Club, she always treated us to her specialties when we visited on Sundays. Strawberries were always available in May, and she had a number of plants in her small vegetable plot in the backyard. The star of the spring season was rhubarb, which grows as a perennial in the Midwest. My grandmother’s tiny kitchen was filled with pots and pans, so many that she stored some in her oven. Her expertise was in baking, and as a child, I sat in her kitchen to watch her make this memorable dessert. This recipe for the Strawberry – Rhubarb Shortcake I grew up with!

First annual spring orchid festival By Staff

ENCINITAS — San Diego Botanic Garden will host its first annual spring orchid showcase from April 3 through May 2 in Encinitas. The World of Orchids exhibit, which kicked off Easter weekend, will be in the Garden’s state-ofthe-art, 8,000-square-foot, glass-enclosed the Dickinson Family Education Conservatory – which opened last year as a $6.5 million addition to the 37-acre urban oasis. “The orchids at San Diego Botanic Garden have beauty and grace that will knock your socks off,” said SDBG President Ari Novy. “There’s nothing better than a bright spring day among the orchids.” The Botanic Garden’s artist-in-residence René van Rems will serve as creative director for the exhibit. Van Rems will design a new display for each of the five weeks, allowing visitors to experience changing flowers and arrangements across multiple visits. Van Rems says that his passion “is to enhance through design what nature provides.”

VENDORS AND CONSRVATON organizations will offer orchids and merchandise for sale on Saturdays, and Sundays and select Fridays during the month. Courtesy photo

His displays at the World of Orchids exhibit is intended to “inspire people to look at plants, botanical elements and their environment with renewed awareness.” The designs will feature specimens, locally-bred hybrids, and rare species plants displayed in unique and unexpected ways. In addition to the many orchids that typically grow in the Garden’s conservatory, displays will include plants on loan from private growers belonging to two local groups – the San Diego County Orchid Society and the Palomar Orchid Society – as well as

orchids and materials from local businesses including Cal Pacific Orchid Farm, Divine Orchids, Dos Gringos, Mellano & Company, Rene van Rems Intl., and Lumbercycle. On Saturdays and Sundays, as well as select Fridays during the month, vendors and conservation organizations will offer orchids and merchandise for sale. Admission to World of Orchids is included with the purchase of a one-day ticket or an annual membership.

SECTION Palomar Health gets $3M FEMA reimbursement By City News Service

C10-0000242-LIC

ESCONDIDO — Palomar Health will receive more than $3 million in reimbursements from the Federal Emergency Management Agency for its COVID-19 alternate care site at Palomar Medical Center in Escondido, it was announced this week. After the medical group faced initial reimbursement challenges, it turned to Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Bonsall), who said he worked directly with state and federal offices to review and secure reimbursement. “Palomar was asked by two levels of government to take the lead in our community’s COVID-19 response and made significant investments to do so,” Issa said. “When Palomar was met with bureaucratic obstacles to gain its deserved reimbursement, our office worked with various levels of government to overcome them.” The total reimbursement from FEMA is $3,098,793.06. In early 2020, responding to requests from county and state officials to help coordinate a community-based COVID response, Palomar Health began the process for designation as a federal medical station. In March 2020, San Diego County requested the hospital be reviewed by the Army Corps of Engineers. The following month, Army Corps of Engineers provided a positive assessment, and the California Department of Public Health approved the request. Palomar Medical Center in Escondido worked with state and federal agencies to establish an alternate care site on two floors of the facility. Alternate care sites were strategically implemented by the state to provide relief for local hospitals and healthcare systems facing potential overcrowding. On Dec. 31, the Federal Medical Station at Palomar was activated and began treating patients. “This timely result is a credit to Palomar’s good work, as well as FEMA’s Region 9 Team, which was responsive in solving this problem,” Issa said.

No water shortage despite dry West  County has ‘sufficient supply’ of water resources By Dan Brendel

REGION — The San Diego County Water Authority is developing a water shortage contingency plan, though not implementing it, despite dry conditions in places from which the region imports much of its water. The region draws about 20% of its water from local sources, including groundwater, desalinated seawater and local reservoirs, according to the Authority’s website. Fully one-half of regional water is imported, by various means, from the Colorado River. A minority proportion comes from Northern California. “The state may now be entering a multi-year drought,” according to a March 17 water authority report. Reservoir and precipitation levels throughout the Colorado River Basin

and Northern California are low. Lakes Powell and Mead — huge reservoirs along the Colorado River in Utah, Arizona and Nevada — sit at a combined 39% capacity. While the Bureau of Reclamation, a federal agency, anticipates no supply shortage from the Colorado River this year, it forecasts the probability of shortage rising to 60% in 2022 and 82% in 2023, according to the March report. The Utah governor last month declared a state of emergency due to drought conditions. U.S. Drought Monitor, a federal academic collaboration, classifies current drought conditions in the West as “widespread extreme” to “exceptional.” Northern Sierra precipitation and snowpack clock in at 53% and 66% of their historical averages, respectively. Oroville and San Luis — big Northern California reservoirs — sit at a combined 58% capacity. But San Diego area water officials aren’t alarmed, saying they’ve secured adequate resourc-

es for long-term regional use. “The Water Authority has sufficient water supplies whether it is a normal year or multiple dry years,” Water Resources Manager Jeff Stephenson said in a statement. “The reporting of drought conditions in other parts of the state, or the Colorado River Basin, don’t [sic] necessarily reflect a problem in the San Diego region in terms of water supply,” said Authority spokesman Ed Joyce. “Under one of the agreements [between the seven states in the Colorado River Basin], Arizona and Nevada agreed to take the first cuts to help prop up the level of Lake Mead, while California would participate at lower shortage levels if the reservoir continues to fall,” he said. Similarly, the relative high priority of other regional water rights means “the Water Authority’s [Colorado River related] supplies are largely insulated from cutbacks and are highly reliable.” The Authority has implemented temporary

cutbacks in response to drought conditions twice in recent decades but deactivated these programs in 2011 and 2016, respectively. Currently, the San Diego area is not formally under any regulatory or pricing strictures due to water shortage or drought conditions, Joyce confirmed. The Authority is formulating a “Water Shortage Contingency Plan,” which had a public hearing before a governing board committee last month. The plan notes that “water supply shortages in different regions of the state do not necessarily constitute a drought in the San Diego region.” But, in the event a shortage is declared, it outlines various levels of voluntary and mandatory cutbacks, depending on the shortage’s severity. The plan also outlines potential water use prohibitions, including restrictions on landscaping, swimming pools, irrigation by nurseries and commercial growers, water used for construction purposes, and the like.

t seems we have been party to a fraud. A dog fraud. Fortunately, we never intended to show our German shorthaired pointer, nor did we intend to train her for field trials or her traditional role in the hunt. We just loved her softly spotted exterior and her big brown eyes when we rescued her from the pound, absent any sort of pedigree. Nevertheless, I feel we were duped. She looks like a pointer. She stands like a pointer. She has the high-energy temperament of a pointer. She gets crazy when birds land in the yard. But it’s all a ruse. If she were a true German shorthaired pointer, she would spot that bird, then freeze and simply point to it. Apparently, our dog is a German shorthaired eater. We haven’t positively verified this, but we had a bird catastrophe offering strong evidence that, well, points in that direction. We foolishly brought one of our parakeets in from the aviary one blustery, stormy morning. We intended to place him and his mate safely under a basket in a closed room until the weather improved. When we returned with his female companion, the door to the room had been pushed open, then knocked closed again. The dog was trapped in the room, the basket was turned over and there was no parakeet to be found – ever. After pondering all the possibilities and searching all the corners, we checked the dogs’ mouths. We found only two small feathers. No blood, no feet, no nothing. The fact that this dog can smell microwaving bacon from the farthest reaches of the yard should have been a tip-off. Her unquenchable skill at stealing food off the kitchen TURN TO SMALL TALK ON B4

Recycling center will take scraps from Encinitas residents By Bill Slane

ENCINITAS — Beginning in June, residents of Encinitas will be asked to begin disposing of their organic food waste in their recycling bins for a recently opened anaerobic digestion facility in San Diego County. Organic waste in landfills is said to contribute 20% of the state’s methane according to the state. Senate Bill 1383, passed and signed into law in California in 2016, aimed to cut out organic waste in landfills to help reduce the amount of methane gas produced into the atmosphere as part of efforts to reduce climate change. As part of that effort,

EDCO, the waste disposal company serving Encinitas, Solana Beach, Vista, San Marcos and more in North San Diego County, recently opened an anaerobic digestion facility in Escondido in February that cuts out those emissions in landfills. Anaerobic digestion is a process where organic food waste is broken down by bacteria in an enclosed oxygen-free environment. The by-product of this process is biogas which can be used as a renewable energy source, and a residual digestate material that can be used as fertilizer and has other agricultural uses. “In this case, we are using a mixture of green

waste and food waste together,” said EDCO General Manager Jim Ambroso. “We did that intentionally because we wanted to simplify the collection process. We already have greenwaste collection happening in our cities, most folks have green waste carts and they put green waste in there, so all we’re doing is introducing food scraps into that same cart.” Once at the digester facility, the collections are broken down by microorganisms similar to how they would in a landfill, but in large enclosed tanks where the gases can be captured and reused as energy. “We introduce that methane into the pipeline where we use it to power our trucks,” Ambroso said. “Our trucks all run on natural gas so we can use this fuel as a renewable resource.” Based on a 2019 survey done by the EPA, 30 states have at least one anaerobic digester facility with California leading the country with at least 23 facilities in operation. According to the EPA, in 2018 these types of facilities produced an estimated equivalent of 85 megawatts of power or enough energy to power 52,116 homes for one year. The digestate product produced by EDCO’s facility will be available for use in the agricultural community. “We are also bringing

it back into our residential communities where it can be reused in applications for gardens and yards,” Ambroso said. The key to this facility working efficiently is the cooperation of residents disposing of their waste properly. If incorrect waste, such as plastic, is placed in the green and organic waste bin, that waste could end up in the fertilizer product. “We have to remove those contaminants by hand so that we make sure that our product comes out clean,” Ambroso said. To give residents a new

the public in Encinitas and other cities, Amboroso says the communities have generally been on board with the process. Encinitas will begin their food waste collection on June 1 with informational mailers being sent to residents about the anaerobic digestion process and what can and can’t be recycled later this month. EDCO says they are continuing to rollout the food waste collection to all of the residential communities they serve and will also begin the same collection for their commercial customers later this year.

Escondido delays pot discussion in tense meeting By Tigist Layne

ESCONDIDO – The Escondido City Council recently voted 3-2 to postpone a discussion on the legalization of cannabis sales in the city, however it is unclear when exactly they will revisit the issue. At the meeting on March 24, the council received 131 public comments on the issue, with 110 voicing support of legalization and 21 opposed. However, because the item was postponed, the comments were not read into the record. Previous city-led surveys of Escondido residents have also indicated that many community members are in favor of legalizing cannabis sales.

Councilman Mike Morasco proposed postponing the discussion and was supported by Councilmembers Tina Inscoe and Joe Garcia. “I don’t think it’s necessary for us to make these determinations at this time,” Morasco said. “There’s a lot more information that could be obtained and provided and I’d like to move the discussion to a later date.” Back in 2018, the council unanimously voted to prohibit the use and sale of cannabis in the city — a different council than the one that is seated now. “When the State of California legalized recreational cannabis, Escondido was one of several cit-

tool to help them adjust to disposing of food waste in a new way, EDCO will be providing residents with a 1.5 gallon-sized container, or kitchen caddy, they can keep in their kitchen to dispose of food waste as they cook and after they are finished eating. “We felt strongly, and the city of Encinitas felt strongly, that if we don’t provide residents with a tool or a means to separate then they won’t do it,” Ambroso said. “So we have to change that behavior in the kitchen.” During workshops and other conversations with

ies to specifically prohibit the production and sale of cannabis products within their jurisdictions,” the staff report said. “In Escondido, 52% of local voters supported the Proposition 64 statewide measure in 2016; the City’s Resident Satisfaction Survey, conducted in June 2020, showed general support of commercial cannabis sales.” Mayor Paul McNamara raised a concern that several organizations have already indicated that they would put the issue on the ballot if the council doesn’t address it soon. “Cannabis regulations adopted by voter initiative leave a city with little control over the form of regulation, and yet the city still bears responsibility for administering the same regulations. Moreover, regulations left to adoption by initiative offer no guarantee of a funding mechanism to cover the costs of administration,” according to the staff report. This is what occurred in the City of Vista back in 2018. The agenda item also calls for the council to consider accepting Cannabis Equity Act Grant Funding of up to $75,000. The deadline to accept the grant is May 12. When City Manager Jeffrey Epp and Deputy City Manager Chris McK-

inney were asked to explain the grant, Councilman Morasco said again that he didn’t want to discuss the matter at this time. “I’m a little reluctant to give up $75,000 without at least a little discussion,” Mayor McNamara said in response. To which Morasco said, “It’s bad $75,000.” Councilwoman Consuelo Martinez also said that she didn’t want to postpone the discussion without setting a date to revisit it. “I would like an opportunity to talk about this issue well in advance of that May 12 deadline,” Councilwoman Martinez said. “Postponing an item without having a date is clearly a strategy and a tactic to not talk about this issue and to have time-lapse so that this grant will not be accepted. Clearly, I know what’s happening right now.” Legalizing cannabis sales could put a significant dent in the city’s projected budget deficit of $8 million in the fiscal year 2021/22 alone. The city might generate net revenue of over $2 million annually from legal cannabis sales with five operating dispensaries and a well-developed permitting and code enforcement process, according to the staff report.

Oceanside police help at-risk youth succeed Occupational therapist helps North County seniors live independently

By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE — Three years ago, Oceanside police officer Lt. Taurino Valdovinos set out to make a difference for the city’s at-risk youth. Now, the region’s local hospital is backing his vision. Valdovinos founded the Oceanside Youth Partnership (OYP) program in March of 2018, serving as a mentoring and character-building program for atrisk youth. The program aims to steer teens and young adults away from gangs, drug use and other illegal activities and toward a successful future. Tri-City Medical Center recently became a sponsor for the program. Valdovinos, an 18-year veteran of the Oceanside Police Department, started out his law enforcement career in gang enforcement. After years on the beat, Valdovinos noticed that while law enforcement was successful at enforcement, it was lacking in prevention. “I wanted to do something more to get to these kids before they became gang members,” Valdovinos said. The lieutenant modeled his program after a similar one in San Marcos run by Sheriff’s deputies.

“I met with them, picked their brains about their program, and I decided I’d like to do something similar,” he said. Teens are referred to the program through partner organizations, school districts, pediatricians and the District Attorney’s office and undergo an interview process. The program is completely voluntary and not exactly easy, according to its founder. “It’s easy to make excuses for failures, but we’re trying to teach these kids to own their education, careers, their lives,” Valdovinos said. Once teens are selected, they begin a 16-week program following a core curriculum, fitness program and small group mentorship with police officers. The students go over current events to build awareness of the world and are exposed to proper physical fitness regimens and a diverse variety of food while in class. The program brings in guest speakers who share their own lived experiences and often relate with the students.

Childhood friends

Many of the program’s students come from poverty, abusive and drug-addicted homes. Both Valdovinos

and Aaron Byzak, a childhood friend, know a thing or two about growing up in such households. Byzak, a recent guest speaker for the program, shared his experience growing up in Carlsbad with parents who abused drugs and alcohol. Valdovinos was one of four children to his single, immigrant mother. He moved in and out of the apartments for a while during his childhood, at one point living down the street in what both he and Byzak call a “legitimate shack.” Byzak and Valdovinos grew up together, meeting when they were 5 and then again when they moved into the same apartment complex. Now, Byzak works as the chief external affairs officer for Tri-City Medical Center. Tri-City’s sponsorship of the program is part of its Community Outreach and Support Through Active Leadership (COASTAL) Commitment Initiative, which serves to demonstrate the hospital and its staff’s support of community improvement programs like OYP. “We look at social issues that impact health outcomes and unmet needs, and we try to invest not only

dollars but time and energy from leadership in those initiatives,” Byzak said. Byzak and other TriCity Medical Center representation were present for the most recent OYP cohort graduation ceremony held April 1 at the Oceanside Boys & Girls Club, a fellow OYP partner organization that hosts the program’s classes. “We want these students and families to know that there are people out there who really care about their outcomes in life,” Byzak said.

Graduate success

One of the first graduates of the program was Hunter Meyer, who won San Diego County’s Youth of the Year award in 2020. Meyer was already hanging out with gang members by the time he was in eighth grade. For years he struggled with depression, fighting, drug abuse and more trouble. After narrowly avoiding the gang initiation requiring him to kill another person, Meyer wanted to turn his life around. Meyer's resource officer at El Camino High School referred him to OYP and he reluctantly joined. Meyer went on to become one of seven first-year graduates of the partnership. “He completely did a 180 with his behavior and academics,” Valdovinos said of Meyer. During his time in the program, Meyer’s opinion of police began to change as well. “They treated us like their own,” he told The Coast News last year. For Valdovinos, his top priority is to build relationships and establish trust between these kids and the city’s police officers.

Not a pandemic, not her physical disability—and definitely not a client’s ability to pay. Ally Armstrong was a 17-year-old soccer player with plans to study nursing when an accident left her paralyzed below the waist. After learning how to navigate life in a wheelchair, she decided she wanted to do the same for others. Now, Ally is a licensed Occupational Therapist with the nonprofit Gary & Mary West PACE in San Marcos, enabling vulnerable seniors with physical disabilities, traumatic brain injuries or other neurological conditions, live full, independent lives in their own homes. April is Occupational Therapy Month, and we’re recognizing the inspired work of professionals like Ally, who have navigated additional challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, to deliver exceptional care to our participants. WHAT IS OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY? Occupational therapy enables people to live their fullest lives by helping them prevent or live better with injuries, illnesses, and disabilities. Occupational Therapists, or OTs, use a holistic approach to help people regain or maintain their independence. On a given day, an OT can do everything from helping an elderly person modify their home to prevent falls, to helping someone regain fine motor skills allowing them to bathe and eat independently. WHO DOES IT HELP? Individuals can benefit from occupational therapy if they: • Struggle with opening food containers • Have trouble gripping items like utensils or toothbrushes • Avoid certain clothing because they find them too difficult to put on • Have mobility issues

or frequent falls and become socially isolated because they cannot participate in the leisure activities they used to love. When meeting a new PACE participant, Ally asks what their goals are, and what activities and skills are important to them, and whether they feel safe doing those things. “As someone who has had to adapt to new physical circumstances, I know we can’t take our ability to do everyday tasks like getting dressed or leaving the house for granted. Sometimes, all it takes for someone to regain their independence are a few in-home modifications combined with consistent occupational therapy.” FOCUSING ON THE PERSON For Ally, the innovative PACE (Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly) model, providing comprehensive medical and social services to individuals age 55+, is what brought her to the nonprofit West PACE. West PACE participants who need medical and supportive care but wish to remain in their own homes, can visit the day center in San Marcos or receive services where they live. These may include consultations with their providers, socialization and nutritious meals at the adult day center, restorative therapy, dentistry, and more. PACE also supports the caregivers through education and discussion groups. “Working as an OT with West PACE has allowed me to make a real difference, and in a lot of cases, give seniors their lives back,” says Armstrong. “The entire team at West PACE focuses on the individual and knows the key to a healthy, happy life for seniors is preserving independence.” For more information on occupational therapy and other services offered by Gary & Mary West PACE, please visit www.westpace. org or call 760-280-2230.

New Village Arts, Flower Fields team up for 20th season By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Finally, New Village Arts will showcase its 20th anniversary season and this year will be a callback to the theatre’s roots. While it’s officially the Carlsbad playhouse's 21st year, the COVID-19 pandemic wiped out the 20th-anniversary schedule. But on April 8, the show will go on and this time the backdrop will be at the iconic Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch. Due to COVID-19 guidelines and a $1 million renovation, the NVA needed space for its shows so they are teaming up with the Flower Fields for a five-week run of outdoor performances, according to Kristianne Kurner, NVA’s executive artistic director. Capacity will be limited to 50 people for the first three weeks and should San Diego County move down to the orange tier, capacity will increase to 80 people she said. Regardless, Kurner said a slate of

musical acts is ready and NVA is thrilled to be back on stage. “We did an annual summer show every year

in those early years,” Kurner said. “It was thinking about, we live in Carlsbad and blessed with fantastic weather. We’ve always

Lux, SD Art Institute merge for a ‘living laboratory of art, ideas’ By Staff

ENCINITAS — The Lux Art Institute is merging with the San Diego Art Institute to become the Institute of Contemporary Art in San Diego opening Sept. 10, according to recent news release. The merger plans to create a new, dynamic platform for contemporary art and artists — a living laboratory of art and ideas. The new arts institute will operate two locations, ICA North, now the Lux campus at 1550 S. El Camino Real in Encinitas, and ICA Central in Balboa Park. The programs currently offered at Lux and San Diego Art Institute will continue at the new venture and intend to evolve to create opportunities that actively engage with Institute of Contemporary Art’s mission of experimental contemporary art. The merger, supported with a grant by the Sahm Family Foundation, was recently finalized with a single, consolidated board of directors, and selected

Ütt is currently executive director of Lux, and will oversee exhibitions, installations, public programs, and classes in its galleries in Balboa Park and Encinitas and via site-specific commissions and installations in San Diego. The new organization will inaugurate its combined 15,000 square feet of indoor space and six acres of exhibition and public programming space with a curatorial and programmatic focus in 2021 and 2022 on the environment and the first solo show in California of Mexican conceptualist Gabriel Rico. “We will present the most experimental and innovative art in San Diego County,” said Karen Gilbert, the organization’s new Chair, Board of Directors, who currently serves as Chair of the San Diego Art Institute. “The ICA will introduce and nurture new artists and our educational and curatorial programs ing competition.

Fallah paints portraits depicting objects and fabrics.

Kurner said, as a precaution to help keep those in attendance safe. Each weekend will feature a new show and the expectation is to run the 20th season through October, she added. NVA and the Flower Fields are already in negotiations to continue the season as shows run on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. Kurner connected with Joni Miringoff of the Flower Fields for the initial fiveweek showcase and now the likely extension. Kurner said even if the renovation was complete, the 100-seat theatre would only be able a fraction due to the health orders. So, Miringoff was able to secure the Flower Fields and allowing NVA to finally get back to the stage. Kurner said when NVA first opened 21 years ago, the nonprofit held free Shakespeare in the Park events. The arrangement now is a pseudo-callback to NVA’s roots. “We believe NVA’s resVOLUNTEER

idency at The Flower Fields will bring exciting new opportunities for our guests,” Miringoff said. “I’ve been a longtime fan of Kristianne and New Village Arts and am excited to partner with them to bring new live arts to Carlsbad.” Opening week will showcase a cabaret series featuring Jasmine January, who starred in the NVA production of “Around the World in 80 Days” in 2019, along with Zackary Scot Wolfe (“Oklahoma!”) and JD Dumas (“Murder for Two”). Tickets are $30 for opening weekend and then increase to $50 and $65, although ticket prices include the admission price to the Flower Fields. Patrons will also be able to get snacks at the Strawberry Shack, which is operated by the Carlsbad Strawberry Company. The shows start at 6:30 p.m. each day and guests can be admitted before then to view the Flower Fields.

A glimpse into Leucadia’s French Corner daydream

t’s been seven years since I first covered the opening of French Corner Café in Leucadia and they have since added a second location in Carlsbad. But the original location is still as popular as ever. It’s always been a weekly visit for me and to be honest, I have not been very adventurous in my selection as their Le Jambon Fromage sandwich on a fresh baguette with French ham, gruyere cheese, French cornichon pickles and butter, is the sandwich that transports me back to Montpellier in the south of France every time I eat it and I like that feeling. On a recent visit, I was paying a bit more attention to the building that surrounds French Corner, as the structure is designed like modern-day versions of our treasured boat houses on Third Street in Encinitas. Those boathouses are the reason I’m in Encinitas today as my best friend Jim Klemmer lived in one for years, and staying in them over 20 years ago was my introduction to Encinitas. Their funky, eclectic vibe contributed greatly to my love of this place. Anyway, I got to thinking one day while enjoy-

ing lunch below one of the modern boats, that appear to have living spaces in the upper level, how cool it would be to live in the unit above French Corner and simply run downstairs daily for breakfast and lunch. Having an active imagination, I decided to share this fabulous housing/culinary fantasy in the form of a column and in the process highlight and remind folks how lucky we are to have a French corner in both Leucadia and Carlsbad. With that, here are my selections for seven days of breakfast and lunch at

French Corner, while residing above it in the modern boat structure. Naps would be in order in between meals of course. I would start the week off on Monday with the Breakfast Croissant that includes two scrambled eggs with Gruyere cheese and French ham in a freshbaked croissant. Simple, delicious and satisfying. For lunch, I’d get a little fancy with their Provencal French Stuffed Tomato. It’s a large baked tomato stuffed with turkey and their secret sauce and served with bread and oh my is it good.

Tuesday morning I’d go for their Breakfast Frittata which is basically a crustless quiche with eggs, roasted potatoes bacon and parmesan served with organic greens and homemade Dijon Vinaigrette. When lunchtime rolls around I’ll be craving bread, so I’d go with the Le Jambon Fromage sandwich on a fresh baguette that I described in detail above. I think this is my favorite sandwich ever. Wednesday: I’d like to indulge on the sweet side of things, so it’s got to be the La Nutella Crepe filled with Nutella spread and

I’m going to add bananas and strawberries. This paired with any of the fabulous coffee options is so decadently delicious that if you like to go sweet on occasion, please give this combo a try. Lunchtime on Wednesday has me enjoying another favorite, the Le Poulet which is the homemade chicken salad with celery, almonds cranberries and a light mayo curry sauce. Thursday for breakfast I’m going back to the savory side with the oh so sexy sounding Omelette du Parisian. It’s a three-egg omelette (French spelling so I’m going with it) with French ham, shaved onions and gruyere cheese. Oh, and just in case you are intimidated by the pronunciation of this cheese…as I’ve been for years, it goes like this, (groo–yehr). Oh, and the omelette is all that and then some. I’m keeping on the lighter side for lunch with the La Nicoise Salad with boiled egg and albacore tuna salad. Breakfast on Friday is another French favorite the Tartine Avocado. The tartine, in its simplest incarnation, is often referred to as the national breakfast of France. This one has goat cheese, sliced avocado, cherry tomatoes and Dijon vinaigrette and you can add an egg on top. Simple sounds good for lunch today with the Le Caprese Sandwich with pesto, fresh sliced tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. So good. Saturday morning is

Quiche Lorraine. The classic quiche is calling and honestly, I could eat this every morning and not tire of it. Le Saucisson, the sandwich with dry salami, French Brie and cornichon pickles will be what I savor for lunch. On the seventh day of my French Corner week, I’d have to go big at breakfast with their heavenly French Toast. How about two brioche French toasts with berries, shaved almonds and organic maple syrup? Yes, please. The Aux Fromages sandwich includes a delightful mix of imported cheeses including mozzarella, Gruyere, aged cheddar and blue. Think of it as the best cheese sandwich ever. So there you have it, a delightful seven days of French goodness, complete with a French music soundtrack. I must mention that there are a plethora of sweets including madeleines, cannelés, fruit tarts and many more. All of this goes so well with an assortment of sexy French coffee, juices and sodas. Incredible whole pies and tarts are also available for that next special occasion as well as catering. This place is a gem folks and is worth exploring. Hope this helped to pique your interest. French Corner Café is located at 1200 N. Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas – 760.230.2221 and 2744 Carlsbad Blvd, Carlsbad – 760.453.7475 www.frenchcorner.com

Behind the scenes at Daou Family Estates winery taste of wine frank mangio

enior Editor Frank Mangio and I had the pleasure of spending two days behind the scenes with Daniel Daou, Proprietor/Master Winemaker, along with others from Team Daou Family Estates during our recent Paso Robles trip. For a wine and food journalist, it gets no better than this. Our behind-the-scenes adventure included dinner at Daniel’s house, a tour of DAOU Mountain including barrel tasting, the initial testing and tasting of 2020 Soul of a Lion, the new site of PATRIMONY Estates and a tour of Gabrielle’s Vineyard. We also enjoyed dinner at Buona Tavola, covered next week. Daniel’s most impressive qualities that stood out during our candid time together were his approachability, love of family, friends and his Daou Team, passion for wine excellence and culinary skills. We started the evening with Daou 2019 Estate Chardonnay and then 2010 and 2011 Reserve

Cab Sauv followed by 2014 Estate and 2012 Soul of a Lion Cab Sauvs - each had a story. As we were drinking the 2010 library wine, Daniel shared that he was making it while his father’s health was declining. It was special to share both this story and library wine with us knowing how much this vintage meant. He decided that the 2011 Soul did not meet the fourth-tier phenolics required and instead skipped 2011 Soul of a Lion and bottled as the 2011 Reserve. Anyone out there with a 2011 has an amazing bottle of wine at a great cost. We continued to enjoy all the Cabs through dinner. Daniel and his fiancé Sara made an authentic Lebanese dinner featuring Kafta, Lebanese Rice and Egg Plant Salad served with Labneh yogurt sauce, Hummus and Pita Bread. Later came Daou Estate Port, Frozen Yogurt and cigars. During the pandemic, Daniel shared he enjoyed gourmet cooking. I suggested he create a Lebanese cookbook, and he said he was thinking about making one. In between dinner and dessert, Daniel took Frank and me to his home cellar adorned with Soul of a Lion, Patrimony and Patrimony

Black Label Collector’s edition (1.5L magnum in a collector’s case with only 600 made, $1000). “Objective indicators for wine include color, sugar, alcohol and other characteristics,” Daniel said.

“An example of the quality of Daou’s fifth and highest tier Patrimony Estate wine is its color between 300 and 500 parts per million (ppm), in comparison to other highend Bordeaux Cabernets that are between 130 and

200 ppm. Daou’s Flagship Soul of a Lion is 250+ ppm as well.” Enjoying these wines showed how the phenolics come into play for exceptionally structured wine where the fruit, tannins, acidity and alcohol create perfect harmony and balance allowing long-term storage. The following day, we had a personal tour of Daou Mountain. I asked Daniel the secret to good wine. “It is 50% fruit and 50% winemaking, but it all must start with a terroir that includes both of these,” Daniel replied. He spent 8 years searching the world for the perfect spot. Once he saw the yellow limestone-based calcareous soil of Daou Mountain at 2,200 feet, he knew he had the soil of Bordeaux and the climate of Napa. This perfect soil also allows one to responsibly dry farm. The limestone can absorb and release moisture as necessary to ensure the fruit has sufficient water. Additionally, Daou Mountain has fewer days over 100 degrees vs Paso, Napa and matches temperatures found in Bordeaux and Saint Helena. Other factors that add to Daou’s prowess are 18-inch tall cordons. Cordons are the top part of

the vine. Having 18-inch cordons permits canopies to grow up to 4 feet providing shade to shield grape berries from sunburn. “We mainly use 6 x 2 vine density where rows are planted 6 feet apart with 2 feet in between vines,” Daniel said. “This produces about 3,600 vines per acre resulting in high amounts of clusters that can be dropped so that the only fruit remaining is the same ripeness.” Frank and I learned that having out-of-balance ripeness requires additives to “doctor” the wine. Other factors include using only free-run juice and oak staves that are weathered outside at Daou Mountain so that the oak absorbs the terroir before construction and toasting. Additionally, the barrel room is a cut-in (rock) cave and was the first commercial modern winery in Paso created by Dr. Hoffman, the original owner in 1965, and was restored by Daou in 2012. By keeping temperatures low with the cave and extra insulation, Daou can use fewer sulfites (10ppm) vs the nominal amount of 25-40 ppm that tire the wine and leads to bleaching. These differentiating factors stack TURN TO TASTE OF WINEU ON B10

The Guardian reported McCann strangled his wife in the bathroom, then dismembered her body and disposed of some of the parts in Reddish Vale Country Park, where dog walkers discovered her remains; other parts were taken to a recycling center.

He was later spotted on video footage carrying trash bags to his car and while walking toward the park, and confessed the killing to police. [The Guardian, 3/30/2021] er/co-proprietor Georges’ home vineyards, hence the name. Our final stop was Gabrielle’s Vineyard, named after daughter Anna Gabrielle Daou, a few miles from Daou Mountain. Perhaps this was one of the best parts of our two-day adventure seeing the next generation of Daou children carrying on the family trade. At 25 years old, Anna has full responsibility for an 80acre vineyard that she was put in charge of last year. This is especially impressive in a male-dominated industry. However, Anna is in good company with 54% of Team Daou being females. We loaded up the Polaris with Anna driving and giving the tour. Her father, in the passenger seat, smiled and showed great pride for his daughter’s expertise in running 80 of the 700 total estate acres owned by Daou Thank you, Daniel, Sara, Anna and Team Daou for a memorable tour!

APRIL 9, 2021

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) It isn’t always easy for the rambunctious Aries to give a second thought to their often spur-of-the-moment choices. But aspects favor rechecking a decision before declaring it final. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Information emerges for the business-driven Bovine who feels ready to restart a stalled project. Be prepared to make adjustments as needed at any time during the process. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Part of you wants to complete plans for an upcoming event, while your other self wants to see how things develop first. Compromise by moving ahead with your plans while being open to change. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) An unexpected change in a relationship could open up a problem or could lead to a much-needed and too-longdelayed reassessment of a number of matters. The choice is yours to make. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Time for the Lion to total the plusses and minuses resulting from recent personal and/ or professional decisions. See what worked, what didn’t and why, and base your next big move on the results. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) The clever Virgo can make persuasion work by presenting a case built on hard facts. Sentiment might touch the heart, but it’s good, solid information that invariably wins the day.

TRIVIA TEST ANSWERS

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You usually can win over the most stubborn skeptics on your own. But this time you can benefit from supporters who have been there, done that and are willing to speak up on your behalf. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You win admiration for your determination to do the right thing. Don’t be distracted from that course, despite the offer of tempting alternatives that might suddenly turn up. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) While you still need to maintain control of a dominant situation, a new development emerges, making the task easier and the outcome potentially more rewarding. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) New factors might have a positive effect on a still-pending matter, but only if the information proves to be credible. Trusted colleagues might be able to offer needed advice. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) The week favors moderation, especially if a health problem is involved. Resist the impulse to do more than might be good for you at this time. You can catch up later. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You could feel more than a mite upset by someone or some people who might be creating problems for you. Find out why they won’t change their ways. Their reasons might surprise you. BORN THIS WEEK: You know how to inspire others to do their best by setting a persuasive example of your own. © 2021 King Features Synd., Inc.
