Trial set in Winston lawsuit  School suing city of Del Mar for ending lease By Laura Place

DEL MAR — A March 2023 trial date has been set in the Winston School of San Diego’s lawsuit against the city of Del Mar alleging a bad faith termination of its lease at the Shores Park property last year. Superior Court Judge Kenneth J. Medel con-

firmed the March 3 civil trial date during a July 1 case management conference, with a trial readiness conference also scheduled for Feb. 17. The trial is expected to last seven days. The Winston School is a nonprofit special education school serving around 100 students annually, focusing on children with learning disabilities in grades 6-12. School officials filed a lawsuit against the city of Del Mar in October 2021 after the city provided a lease termina-

tion notice during the summer stating that the school failed to submit a proper redevelopment plan as required by the lease. In the original complaint, Winston officials claimed the city refused to approve various iterations of the school’s redevelopment plans in an “intentionally arduous and grossly unfair process.” The complaint alleges that the city intentionally terminated the lease to TURN TO WINSTON ON A9

Elderly residents brace for worst if retirement plans fall short further from covering basic living expenses. In the last three years, her Social Security has increased by less than $100. “I have to put my belongings in storage,” Tina said. “That’s $80 a month.”

PER COUNTY ANALYSIS, the national average monthly Social Security Income benefit for a single older adult would not even cover the cost of housing in San Diego County. The Coast News graphic

Three-legged stool

According to Paul Downey, president and CEO of Serving Seniors, the “three-legged stool” — Social Security Income benefits, pensions and savings — was once thought to be the baseline retirement plan in the United States. “The theory was, with all three of those things in place, someone could live a comfortable retirement life after they stopped working,” Downey said, noting pensions are typically limited to government employees and “many older adults have to dip into the life savings long before they’re actually ready to retire.” Leaving the last leg: Social Security. Tina was a career waitress, working hard in and out of restaurants most of her life in the United States. However, she was forced to stop working earlier than she had intended. The European native realized it was hard to reformulate her retirement plan to avoid emptying her savings. So, she started calling the city of Carlsbad seeking housing assistance, which has a waiting period of more than a decade. Tina said the city’s housing services suggested applying for assistance in other

cities and offered a list of affordable housing units in the region. “Each one of them is more expensive than where I live now,” Tina said. “I just couldn’t believe it; it makes no sense. Why would I give up this apartment and spend the money to move to one that’s more expensive? It blew my mind to tell you the truth. So this is where we’re at right now; I don’t even know if I qualify. I have not met anybody face to face. I know nothing; all I know is filling out these applications.” Tina said she’d been continuously referred to applications for Section 8 and other affordable housing programs for two years, yet she still doesn’t know if she qualifies for housing aid. And her son keeps paying her rent. “I have to switch to Medicare, which is something I’ve always tried to avoid,” she said. Frustrated and exhausted from lack of help, Tina started planning her route to becoming unsheltered earlier this year. “I have to get either a VW bus or a little camper,” Tina said, suggesting she could live in her vehicle to avoid her children continuing to make her monthly rent payments. She noted there’s active scouting of her building; people inquiring about vacancies at Section 8 and voucher-approved complex. “There will be (vacancies) once I’m on the street, right?

herself reasonably healthy before the medical incident and was sitting on a moderate financial nest egg. After eight years of living in her apartment, she had to turn to her youngest son for help.

Tina, a European native, intends to wean off her son’s financial assistance with her creative talents. She’s created dolls, knitted rugs and pillows, greeting cards, and other items she’ll sell at street markets. “I have to get a mailbox because I need an address… as a resident with a Green Card, every time I move, I have to tell Homeland Security,” Tina said. Downey said the agency was successful in working with the city of San Diego — with aims at a county directive — to include shallow rental subsidies for low-income earners. In its annual comprehensive needs assessment, Serving Seniors released a questionnaire to those who were either currently or at risk of becoming homeless. In the most recent publication, more than half of the 400 individuals surveyed said that $300 was the difference between being housed and unhoused, and nearly three-quarters said $400. Downey recognizes that rental subsidies are not the only answer to keeping older adults and others with low income in their homes. So, to Tina, she’s being proactive. “My timeline is — of course, I don’t want to be in the position where I have no money left — either by this September or next spring by spring for sure,” Tina said.

CARLSBAD — A countless number of files are kept in order of events in drawers throughout her kitchen, dining and living room, leaving a paper trail of failed rental assistance applications and ongoing checklists for her anticipated leap into homelessness. A Carlsbad woman under the name Tina told The Coast News that after finding no help from city services, she’s looking to county streets as her home to live out her Golden Years. Tina is not the only older adult on the brink of becoming unsheltered. Some local retirement experts believe that roughly a quarter of the local homeless population over 55 are in similar situations. According to a 2019 report by the United Way, 23% of San Diego seniors (ages 65 plus) do not have enough income to meet basic needs, such as housing, food and medicine. As of 2019, more than 30% of the total population in San Diego County ages 45 and older are living below the federal poverty line, per county data. “The income needed to meet daily needs in San Diego County was 2.1 times more than the average Social Security Income for single older adults and 1.8 times more for older adult couples,” according to the County of San Diego’s cost of living analysis for 2021. And so for residents like Tina, there is a seemingly endless stream of work to be done. “I have written down everything I have to do,” Tina said, who even prepared her small sedan for a test run at a Safe Parking Lot earlier this year, but anxiously returned home without success. In 2019, Tina, who had been working as a caretaker, suffered a collapse and was later diagnosed with neuropathy. After her “health nosedived,” Tina said she encountered severe changes in her abilities to carry out daily tasks. Tina was forced to retire earlier than she anticipated. Now, she gets $971 from Social Security each month to cover her groceries, utility and medical bills, and $1,235 for rent. Tina was 70 years old when her health began to decline. She considered

State water restrictions should be a wake-up call

By A.J. van de Ven

n late March, Gov. Gavin Newsom called on local water agencies to implement more aggressive water conservation measures, and for the State Water Resources Control Board to look at banning irrigation of decorative grasses around commercial, industrial and institutional buildings. Then, at the end of April, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California declared a water shortage emergency, requiring millions of people to cut their outdoor watering to one day a week. These moves came as no great surprise given the drought conditions our state and much of the West have faced over the last two decades, which has only intensified over the past two years. In early June, 49% of the lower 48 states were in drought. Indeed, water restrictions have been announced or mooted not only here in California, but also Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. Climate trends suggest water restrictions are likely to become an ongoing fact of life, so there’s an urgent need for us to think about our water use differently. We need to take a holistic approach that considers all the factors contributing to how much water we need to use and how often we use it. My company is based in Carlsbad. We make smart irrigation systems, so naturally I’m in favor of their use. And technology has a central role to play in conserving water. Smart irrigation technology can reduce water usage by up to 40%, because it uses weather data and weather and soil moisture sensors to ensure water isn’t being wasted. But technology is not

the full answer. There’s a mindset change that needs to take place, too. Instead of landscaping with non-native plants for example, native and in some cases drought-tolerant plants will often produce better outcomes with less irrigation being necessary. Using mulch, rocks or recycled tire shavings will help to trap the moisture in the soil. Without that ground layer, when the soil is exposed to the heat, it will evaporate more quickly. Public and commercial enterprises can analyze their entire landscape to look at how they can best utilize irrigation. Ideally, they can replace high water usage plants with low water usage plants. If possible, they should use the sprinkler heads that are best suited for the particular area of the landscape, whether that’s a micro emitter subsurface drip, rotary nozzle or another of the many options available. Getting rid of wasteful spray nozzles is critical: 30% of water is lost on the wind. It literally blows away! They can also look at the soil itself. Without the right type of topsoil, losing water to runoff can be significant; solid clay, for example, means the water just doesn’t penetrate the soil to get to the plants’ roots. At home we can take shorter showers and ensure faucets are not left running. Those small adjustments are not going to have the impact that water restrictions or wholesale innovation in agriculture and other industries will have. But encouraging home water savings will help us keep water conservation at the top of our minds, making water sustainability a

key part of our thinking, similar to how we think about recycling paper and plastics. We should look at more widespread adoption of potable reuse: making water treatment and recycling the norm, both for landscape use and as a drinking water source. It’s important to remove the stigma that exists around the recycling of water and instead create a consumer demand. Consumer expectation is a powerful force. It would be the most important driver in the acceptance of potable reuse, in the same way that consumer preference has underpinned the widespread take-up of renewable energy today. That sort of innovative thinking could be incorporated into all aspects of our day to day lives; that’s as true for agriculture, industry, governments, municipalities, businesses and commercial property owners, as it is for all of us. We can all agree that we’d like to be surrounded by beautiful landscapes: Beautiful surroundings are fantastic for our mental health and well-being. But those landscapes should be designed intelligently, making use of smart irrigation and including suitable plant types for the area. They can serve their function, add aesthetic appeal and minimize water waste. We need a revolution in the way we think about water use. Water is our most precious resource. Let’s be sure we’re treating it that way. A.J. van de Ven is president of Carlsbad-based smart irrigation company Calsense and a board member of the nonprofit EcoLife Conservation, and has taught a course in water management at California State University at San Marcos.

here appears to be no end to the new laws that Sacramento’s dominant Democratic legislators want to pass in their effort to make California at least as dense as New York state. Their latest effort seems likely to be as onerous — and unsuccessful — at this task as the infamous 2021 SB 9 and SB 10, which effectively end single family residence (R-1) zoning everywhere in this highly varied state. The two earlier laws — which may face a referendum to cancel them in the 2024 election — have so far had little effect. They allow all but the smallest current R-1 lots to be split in two, with each lot eligible for a duplex and a small additional dwelling unit, also known as a “granny flat.” Cities and counties cannot nix such efforts to multiply housing units by a 6-1 ratio over current levels. But it’s not happening on a large scale, very possibly because the state housing shortage estimates they were designed to mitigate probably are nowhere near accurate. The actual housing shortage appears to be far smaller than levels claimed by the state Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Using HCD numbers, Gov. Gavin Newsom campaigned hard in 2018 for construction of 3.5 million new units by 2025, but fewer than half a million have actually been built on his four-year watch. Newsom now says just 1.8 million new units are needed, half what he claimed four years ago. And a springtime report from the nonpartisan state auditor found HCD figures lack solid documentation, suggesting the real need may be far lower than even Newsom’s latest numbers, which he proffered without any documentation. Now come the legislators with a new bill called AB 2011, based on a supposed HCD estimate of 2.5 million new housing units needed as soon as possible. This proposed law, titled the Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022, offers no explanation of what a High Road job might be, except that any building under its auspices would require that all labor be paid union wages — in short, the highest in the construction industry. No wonder several under-construction affordable housing projects are coming in right now at more than $1 million in building costs per unit. These may be offered at below-market rents to some Californians, but they in no way are affordable for the taxpayers who are actually footing most of the costs.

california focus

tom elias

AB 2011 is different and probably even less affordable to local taxpayers than the laws that spawned the current hyper-expensive housing construction. It provides a “ministerial” approval process for all affordable or low-rent housing proposed along commercial transportation corridors. In short, this means automatic approval by a rubber-stamping official in each city or county where developers might want to build along major streets and highways. It makes such projects exempt from virtually all laws governing environmental or neighborhood impacts of these purported new buildings, which must also offer ground-floor commercial space. But if a developer finds a project approved under these terms doesn’t “pencil out,” a portion of the units can be rented or sold at market rates much higher than so-called affordable housing. Even the state’s building trade unions don’t like that. “The bill provides a path to developer profits with little protection for workers or meaningful impact from community members,” said a statement from the state’s Building and Construction Trades Council. So even the unions, which enthusiastically backed SB 9, SB 10 and other densifying measures passed over the last five years don’t much like this one. Some opponents note both the unreliability of HCD need estimates and the fact that many investors and speculators buying up existing housing are keeping it vacant, producing what is essentially a false, manufactured housing shortage designed to keep prices up. So this latest densifying proposal, sponsored by Democratic Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks of Oakland, may have too many flaws to make it past a very pro-density Legislature and an even more pro-housing governor. But maybe not. The flaws in SB 9, SB 10 and other densifying measures that did pass were just as evident as those afflicting the newest proposal, yet they passed handily and Newsom signed them into law. So what’s to stop this one, too? Email Thomas Elias at tdelias@aol.com.

SAN DIEGO civil trial attorney Carla DiMare has filed a notice of intent to pursue litigation against Mayor Catherine Blakespear and the city of Encinitas related to the mayor’s alleged censorship of individuals with dissenting opinions on social media. Stock photo

Group pursues legal remedies in Blakespear censorship allegations  Attorney files new legal notice seeking mayor’s apology By Steve Wyer

ENCINITAS — A group of Encinitas residents continues to seek legal remedies against Mayor Catherine Blakespear and the city of Encinitas over alleged censorship by the mayor on social media, recently filing a notice of intent to move forward with litigation unless previous settlement terms are satisfied. San Diego civil trial attorney Carla DiMare filed an amended notice on July 14 with the city of Encinitas on behalf of Robert Nichols, former chairman of the Surfing Madonna Oceans Project, and approximately 15 other “citizens' rights advocates.” DiMare, who replaces Carlsbad-based attorney Michael Curran, claims her client’s constitutional rights were violated when Blakespear restricted their access to her official mayoral Facebook page and blocked certain users for expressing dissenting opinions. The notice seeks an official apology from the mayor and $5,000 in attorneys fees in compensation. In May, Nichols and the other plaintiffs filed a government tort claim against Blakespear and the city of Encinitas after the residents claimed Blakespear had violated the terms of a previous settlement agreement that had been reached between the two parties. The mayor had agreed to issue a public apology to the residents on her official Facebook page, but Nichols and others criticized that apology for being disingenuous.

Curran, the plaintiff’s attorney at the time, informed the city the settlement agreement was void and his clients would be moving forward with a tort claim. The tort claim is against Blakespear, both as an official and a private citizen, and the city of Encinitas. The city will have 45 days to review the complaint to accept the claim and negotiate with the

plaintiffs, deny the claim’s validity, or ignore the criticism altogether. “Ms. Blakespear’s voiding of the settlement agreement or refusal to comply with the settlement agreement puts her in conflict with the city and damages the city,” the amended notice reads. “The city could be held vicariously liable for its mayor’s misconduct, including voiding the settlement agreement and/ or refusing to comply with the settlement agreement which she signed while acting within the scope of her employment with the city, which damaged my client (and other similarly situated people).” DiMare stressed that her firm would not hesitate to take the city to court if Blakespear did not agree to the settlement terms. “Mayor Catherine Blakespear deliberately de-

prived Encinitas residents of their constitutional right to free speech because she disagreed with them. Then she breached a settlement agreement that she signed,” DiMare said. “She also unjustifiably criticized the good people of Encinitas with her untrue, polarizing rant in May of 2022. She also tried to have her campaign pay for what she has characterized as a personal initiative.

“Blakespear is unfit to hold any political office, in my opinion. She should honor the settlement agreement and stop dragging down the great city of Encinitas with her bad behavior, otherwise, we will file a lawsuit after the amended notice period has passed.” If the tort claim goes to state court, DiMare said that her firm would seek damages from the city in excess of $100,000. But in comments made to The Coast News, Kevin Sabellico, Blakespear’s campaign manager in her race for the 38th State Senate District seat, said the mayor has no intention of agreeing to the new settlement terms offered in the amended notice, arguing the campaign had already satisfied the terms of the previous settlement agree-

SANDAG favors creating affordable housing agency By Steve Puterski

REGION — The San Diego Association of Governments' board of directors voted on July 8 to support the creation of a new regional affordable housing agency as outlined in an amended California housing bill. But the proposal faces criticism for its proposed tax and governance structure, raising questions about its ability to accelerate housing projects. The amendments to Senate Bill 1105 by State Sen. Ben Hueso (D-San Diego) would establish the San Diego Regional Equitable and Environmentally Friendly Affordable Housing Agency — a regional agency focused on affordable housing development and subsidy programs. County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer said the agency, similar to SANDAG, would be able to levy taxes and apply for state and federal funding to help the region build more housing. “We can be competitive with San Francisco and Los Angeles to raise revenue and then secure funds to build affordable and workforce housing,” Lawson-Remer added. “It has a clear San Diego stamp.” The bill would authorize the agency to, among other things, incur and issue debt, place various measures on the county ballot to raise and allocate funds and issue general ob-

ligation bonds secured by levying ad valorem property taxes. Among the funding measures, the bill would authorize the agency to impose a parcel tax, a gross receipts business license tax, a unique business tax, specified special taxes on real property, a commercial linkage fee, and others. Under the state bill, the agency cannot place a measure on the ballot to “raise revenue” unless it enters into a specific countywide project labor agreement with the San Diego County Building and Trades Council, AFLI-CIO union and San Diego Housing Federation. However, the nonprofit San Diego Housing Federation opposes the bill, according to an Assembly consultant’s bill analysis. According to the bill, a first-time homebuyer program would provide grants, loans, financial coaching and counseling, direct subsidies, a development subsidy and other forms of assistance. Eligible residents include those at or below 120% of the area median income. Properties include single-family, townhomes, condos, twin and row homes, co-ops and more as their primary residence. Also, the properties will be deed restricted and limits future sales prices to no more than 10% annualized appreciation above the purchase price. “Having a different approach, a regional approach was important to me,” Solana Beach Mayor Lisa Heebner said, who motioned to support the bill with amendments. Heebner also noted her concerns with the revenue split, voting system and potential cost increases from the labor agreements. “Fifty percent of the money goes to the city directly and 50% to the region,” Heebner said. “I have a problem with that. I can get behind a weighted vote for transportation, but when it comes to land use, TURN TO HOUSING ON A15

Attorney fights for evidence in minor cases  Court to rule on Brady protections for lower offenses By Jacqueline Covey

REGION — A pending decision on nearly two dozen minor infraction cases in the city of San Diego will impact thousands of county residents’ ability to contest traffic offenses and municipal code violations in court. Coleen Cusack, a defense attorney for Matthew Houser and other pro bono clients, argued for discovery in 17 lower-level cases — with others pending — and made motions against the constitutionality of practices within the San Diego City Attorney’s Office on July 15 in San Diego Superior Court. Cusack is — and has been — trying to extrapolate evidence from the San Diego Police Department and the City Attorney’s Office on all of her pro bono cases. The city has previously argued it has no obligation to turn over evidence to defendants in low-level cases, most of which carry fines but no jail time. If the court grants her discovery motion, the city will have to turn over any evidence that qualifies under rights established in

the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision of Brady v. Maryland in 1963, a legal standard for minor infractions that would be applied countywide. Brady materials include exculpatory and impeachment evidence, including records of police misconduct, public complaints, body camera footage and use-of-force reports. In August 2021, a Superior Court commissioner ruled the city violated Houser’s constitutional

Brady list in Houser’s case and found no “impeaching material found regarding” the officer that arrested him. However, in April, the appellate division of the San Diego Superior Court upheld the commissioner’s ruling that the San Diego City Attorney’s Office violated Houser’s Brady rights, subsequently dismissing the case. “The Appellate Division’s decision is plainly wrong and misapplies the law with regard to Brady

rights after failing to turn over supporting evidence related to a citation for overnight camping. The commissioner, an attorney selected by judges to make decisions concerning a number of legal matters, said that by not providing discovery, the city violated Houser’s rights by withholding evidence from his defense. The city appealed the ruling, arguing that it conducted a case search of the

and its progeny,” San Diego City Attorney Mara Elliot wrote in a request for depublication on June 16 to the California Supreme Court. “The decision fails to recognize the need for expeditious and economical treatment of infraction cases.” Following the April decision, Leslie Wolf Branscomb, a spokeswoman for Elliott, told the San Diego Union-Tribune, “the Houser decision is binding only

to that case and does not require a change in process,” adding that only a ruling from “the California Court of Appeal or California Supreme Court” could force a change in procedure related to evidence in lower-level cases. Cusack, however, seeks remedy in all of her minor infraction cases. Cusack said she’s been the “monkey in the middle” between law enforcement and prosecutors as she tries to collect client case information — an effort that costs her hundreds of dollars and hours without reimbursement. “I never get the [evidence], they just keep throwing” the burden back and forth, Cusack told the court last week. Cusack hopes the judge orders the release of all supporting documents, recordings and other evidence that would support her clients’ defense. Cusack argues the pushed-through process followed by the city regarding minor infractions puts the burden — and cost — of obtaining proof on the defendant. According to Cusack, to get discovery, she was required to issue a subpoena and pay about $25 for records when evidence should be turned over without cost.

Property tax roll hits record high

By Anna Opalsky

By City News Service

REGION — The San Diego County Assessor on July 14 certified the 2022 assessed value roll of all taxable property in the county, a record $679.15 billion, 8.27% higher than the year before. That represents a $51.8 billion gain in value and is based on assessed values as of Jan. 1, 2022. The state’s Prop 13 limited 888,884 properties to a 2% assessed value increase — intended to guarantee affordability for property owners and deliver revenue for government services. The roll consisted of 1,011,214 real estate parcels, 55,071 business personal property accounts, 13,410 boats and 1,541 aircraft. The roll’s total net assessed value is $652.95 billion after deducting $26.19 billion for a record reduction resulting in more than $260 million in property tax savings for homeowners, disabled veterans, and charitable organizations, according to a statement from the county assessor’s office. “While some assessor's offices have struggled, my extraordinary staff closed the tax roll on time and complete,'' said Ernest Dronenburg, county assessor. “If we don't close the tax roll on time then county services will be interrupted, taxpayers impacted, and we would see a cascading effect that would impact revenues for operating schools, libraries, parks and other key emergency services.” The property tax reduction outreach program, led by Chief Deputy Assessor/Taxpayer Advocate Jordan Marks, qualified 469,962 homeowners for $32.8 million and a record savings of $18.7 million in property tax savings for 12,760 San Diego County disabled veterans. Marks also led outreach to affordable housing and homeless service providers that resulted in a record number of 5,254 nonprofit entities, saving more than $210 million in property taxes for organizations that provide affordable housing, senior low-income housing, homeless services, schools, churches, museums, and other charitable organizations. “Thanks to Prop 13, no homeowner should lose their home due to unaffordable property taxes from the recent skyrocketing home prices,” Marks said. “At the same time, governments will receive record high reliable funding for the tenth straight year to deliver key services, like schools and first responders.”

Survey: Most Escondido voters favor sales tax increase By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — Most Escondido voters would support a citywide sales tax increase if placed on the November ballot, according to a recent survey of residents. Roughly two-thirds, 62% and 68%, of a sample of 1,022 registered voters supported a one-cent sales tax increase based on a survey conducted by True North Research, Inc. The survey presented hypothetical ballot measure language to voters with two options: allow the tax to end by voters or in 20 years, with more residents favoring the 20year option. The survey took place in May following the City Council’s direction in April to gauge voters’ interest in a possible sales tax increase. City officials have debated a sales tax increase for some time in response to the city’s budget woes due to its state-required public employee unfunded pension liability fund, which obligates the city to pay between $15 million and $22 million annually until 2044. Without additional revenue, the city would need to cut police, fire, road maintenance and encampment cleanups. Meanwhile, in the survey, residents identified wanting additional public safety, infrastructure improvements and actions addressing homelessness to improve Escondido’s quality of life. “Residents clearly want dollars spent on public works, safety and homelessness,” Deputy Mayor Tina Inscoe said. While the survey showed that residents favored a one-cent sales tax measure, the City Council hasn’t decided whether to pursue a one-cent, ¾-cent or half-cent tax increase. Escondido’s current sales tax rate is 7.75%, of which 7.25% is the statewide base rate and 0.50% is the SANDAG district tax. If a one-cent sales tax increase is approved, Escondido would join National City, Del Mar, Chula Vista and Imperial Beach as cities with the highest tax rates in the county at 8.75%. Councilmember Consuelo Martinez noted that

Escondido’s demographics are similar to those other cities. A one-cent sales tax increase would generate $28 million annually for the city. La Mesa is currently the only city with an 8.5% sales tax rate, which Escondido would have if a ¾-cent increase is approved. If Escondido opts for only a half-cent sales tax increase, it will join the cities of Oceanside, Vista and El Cajon with an 8.25% sales tax rate. Councilmember Mike Morasco cautioned that a countywide sales tax measure could limit Escondido’s ability to pass its own measure. Per state law, local tax increases are only allowed up to 2%. Following a presentation of the survey results on July 13, the council directed staff to come back with a draft ballot measure. At least four council votes in favor of a ballot measure must be turned into the Registrar of Voters by Aug. 12. Councilmember Joe Garcia suggested the ballot measure posed to voters lacks transparency about its connection to the unfunded pension liability fund. Though the survey did mention the need to do

something about the fund in some of its questions, Garcia felt it wasn’t apparent enough. “I think that fundamentally we have missed the point, and we have a major problem, and it’s been growing over the years… the plan has already been presented to us on how (the tax measure) is going to be spent, and it doesn’t have anything with the unfunded liability (fund),” Garcia said. “That is a very serious concern that I have.” Mayor Paul McNamara disagreed the measure lacks transparency, noting that staff and the council have discussed the city’s unfunded pension liability fund for months during financial briefings. “In the spirit of transparency, if they don’t vote for it, the quality of life in Escondido will go down, which it will because we will not have the money that we need to provide the quality of life at the current level,” McNamara said. City Manager Sean McGlynn explained while it might be difficult to squeeze the information into the 75-word ballot measure language limit, the city can provide more insight regarding the city’s debt in education materials for the public.

ENCINITAS — Adam Camacho, principal of San Dieguito Academy, will resign from his role effective July 31, according to an email sent to parents and students earlier this month. Camacho, who held the school’s top position for five years, plans to pursue a new career in the private sector, according to his message. “While I’m very excited to pursue this new challenge, the transition brings both sadness and g rat it ude to my heart … I will miss the wonder f u l career in e d u c a t io n CAMACHO I’ve been privileged and honored to thrive in,” Camacho wrote. District leadership plans to assemble a panel of representatives consisting of staff and parents to help select a new principal, according to Camacho’s email. The selection process has not been developed yet, according to Miquel Jacobs, the school district’s communications coordinator, but the district hopes to fill the role before the start of the 2022-23 school year on Aug. 16. “I look forward to working closely with [the new principal] to ensure a smooth transition in leadership,” Camacho wrote. “Meanwhile, I remain focused on preparing for what I’m sure will be another amazing school year ahead.” Since 2000, Camacho has worked in the San Dieguito Union High School District.

Previously, Camacho was a counselor at La Costa Canyon High School and Earl Warren Middle School, assistant principal at Carmel Valley Middle School, and principal at Earl Warren before he joined the San Dieguito Academy community in 2017. “(Camacho) didn't feel like a principal because he was so down to earth; he would walk around, high-fiving students and checking in,” said Joy Ruppert, an incoming senior at San Dieguito Academy and last year’s school president. Ruppert saw Mr. Camacho as a “team player” for students and staff. She hopes that students will be allowed to have input in the selection of a new principal. Ethan Fitzgerald, Ruppert’s predecessor in student leadership and a Class of 2022 graduate from San Dieguito Academy, agrees that Camacho was an “excellent principal.” Both Ruppert and Fitzgerald hold fond memories of Camacho, including playing drums in the school’s Battle of the Bands contest, regularly attending sports games and cooking pancakes for students at school. “[Principals] should be a friend and an ally first before an administrator. [Camacho] really put his best foot forward always and he made it his top priority to listen to staff and students,” Ruppert said. “It was definitely a very unique and amazing experience to work with Mr. Camacho. For me and for ASB and for the rest of the student body, we just want to say thank you to him.”

Alzheimer’s Association discusses “10 Warning Signs” at Silvergate San Marcos SAN MARCOS, CA – July 22, 2022 – More than 30 attentive seniors and family members turned out for an informative presentation by the Alzheimer’s Asso-ciation of San Diego to discuss the “10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s Disease” on Tuesday, June 28th at Sil-vergate San Marcos -- the area’s premier senior living community. “Caregiving for a loved one who is living with Alzheimer’s Disease, dementia, or memory loss at home is often overwhelming and exhausting for family members,” said Joan Rink-Carroll, Executive Director for Silvergate San Marcos. “We partnered with the Alzheimer’s Association to share resources with seniors and their families in order to help them assess a loved one’s cognitive status and navigate the path to better care, which is all anyone wants for their mom or dad.” Speaker Rebecca Turman, Program and Education Specialist for the San Diego Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, gave attendees a comprehensive overview of the top 10 warning signs to watch for as well as an update on the latest research under development for families concerned about a loved who may be experiencing the onset of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, key signs to look for include: 1. Memory loss that disrupts daily life 2. Challenges in planning or solving problems 3. Difficulty completing familiar tasks 4. Confusion with time or place 5. Trouble understanding visual images and spatial relationships 6. New problems with words in speaking or writing 7. Misplacing items and losing the ability to retrace steps

8. Decrease or poor judgment 9. Withdrawal from work or social activities 10. Changes in mood and personality Turman continued to say that although the scientific community is no closer to a cure, early detection is now possible and depends largely on seniors being assessed by a physician at the onset of one or more of these key warning signs. Families are encouraged to note what they’re seeing, become educated and seek guidance from trusted sources like the Alzheimer’s Association. “I came to this event today to learn more about this troubling disease because I have a dear friend who is starting to experience memory loss issues that have me concerned,” said Joyce Jablonowski, a local senior who received Silvergate’s invitation to hear about what constitutes symptoms versus what can be considered normal challenges with aging. “I wanted to know what to look for so hearing about the warning signs in Silvergate’s presentation today and then touring a professional memory care environment was really helpful. I now know how to find the support she needs.” Guests also heard from David Nelson, Marketing Director for Silvergate San Marcos. “Although we all continue to hope for a cure to Alzheimer’s in our lifetime, until that day, what we do know is that there is a lot seniors can do now to help delay the onset of dementia-like symptoms. Staying active, developing new friendships, continual learning, and proper nutrition all help the brain stay healthy. Independent senior living communities like Silvergate San Marcos specialize in just that.” After the presentation, guests were able to tour Silvergate’s newly remodeled Memory Care Suites, a separate building on the property specifically designed for

seniors diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and memory loss. Participants were introduced to Silvergate’s unique concept of “neighborhood” design which provides a more personalized, home-like environment where residents enjoy the highest level of comfort, engagement, and supervision without the possibility of wandering in corridors or long hallways. About Silvergate San Marcos With one of the highest caregiver-to-resident ratios in the senior living industry, Silvergate San Marcos’ experienced memory care team provides high-touch care 24 hours a day, seven days a week. With more eyes on fewer residents, families can rest assured that the greatest standard of care and the highest level of supervision will ensure the safety and security of a loved one residing at the community’s Memory Care Suites.

Father Joe’s outlines homeless challenges By City News Service

REGION — Father Joe’s Villages on Wednesday detailed how easy it can be to fall into homelessness, how difficult it can be to escape it, and provided some possible solutions. The homelessness services provider’s report comes on the heels of a 10% increase in homelessness since 2020, according to the Regional Task Force on Homelessness 2022 Point-in-Time count. “Many of the realities that our clients and staff face every day are not known or understood by the general public,” said Deacon Jim Vargas, president and CEO of Father Joe’s Villages. “Through this report, we seek to better inform the public discourse about homelessness so that policy solutions devised in board rooms align with the true realities faced on the streets. The point-in-time count is a one-day snapshot of those experiencing homelessness and registers a minimum number of 8,427 homeless people across San Diego County, with the true number likely considerably higher. “The challenges of finding every person in a car, canyon, or under a bridge, is impossible, but every effort is made to find and engage as many people as we can,” reads a previous statement from the Regional Task Force on Homelessness. The number included 4,106 unsheltered San Diegans, with 4,321 individuals in shelters. Of those surveyed, 85% said they had fallen into homelessness while living in the region. The Father Joe’s report lays out the most significant factors impacting homelessness in the region — lack of affordable housing, substance abuse, the criminal justice system, access to shelter and health care — and mentions some ideas for solutions. The report also breaks down the impact of rising food and housing prices that affect low-income individuals and families, forcing many into making difficult decisions among critical needs. Father Joe’s Villages advocates for development of more affordable housing, streamlining funding efforts for affordable housing, as well as subsidies for seniors as the average cost of a home and rent for an apartment continues to climb. Additionally, providing recuperative care, street health services, the expansion of behavioral health care and conservatorship are proposals to help with the high cost of health care. Expanded same-day services — including medical assisted treatment, harm reduction resources and sober and non-sober

shelter and housing options — are recommended by the report for substance abuse. Father Joe’s also advocates for safe villages, outreach centers and designated areas for encampments as well as an aggressive stance on drug dealing and the need for programs similar to the proposed CARE Court. The 2022 count was conducted in February by more than 1,400 volunteers across the county. It was the first such count since January 2020, before the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent increase in shelter options. The Regional Task Force on Homelessness said comparisons between 2020 and 2022 should not be measured by the same standard and that heavy rains the night before and frigid temperatures the morning of the count may have impacted the number of people sleeping outside. Still, the total number of people sleeping outside without shelter increased by 3%. “The Point-in-Time Count is about much more than numbers — it’s about people,” RTFH CEO Tamera Kohler said. “Right now too many people are suffering in San Diego. They’re mothers and daughters, fathers and sons. They fell into homelessness due to a lost job, a lost spouse or some other crisis beyond their control. “Add in the fact that we live in the most expensive housing market in the country, where double digit rent increases are common, and you can see why too many San Diegans are left behind,” she continued. “The people our volunteers spoke to ... aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. They’re our neighbors, doing their best to survive.” The Point-in-Time Count saw an increase in families experiencing homelessness of 56% from 2020. Black San Diegans, who make up less than 5% of the total population in San Diego County, made up 24% of the region’s unsheltered homeless population. While 24% of San Diegans experiencing homelessness were over 55 in both 2020 and 2022, this year’s count showed 47% of those seniors were experiencing homelessness for the first time, with 57% having a physical disability. The oldest person surveyed living on the street in San Diego County was 87. According to RTFH numbers, between Oct. 1, 2020, and Sept. 30, 2021, more than 36,500 San Diegans interacted with homeless services, meaning the true number of San Diegans living without permanent housing could be far higher than what the count found.

develop affordable housing on-site, which city officials have denied. “On July 1, the judge recognized the importance of this case by giving the case particular preference and prioritizing it in his calendar, scheduling it as soon as possible, which is March of 2023,” said Laura Cunitz, president of the Winston School board of directors, in an email to The Coast News. “The Winston School is one of the oldest and largest nonprofits in Del Mar and has served students from all over San Diego County as a safe place for students with learning disabilities. For nearly 35 years, Winston has been a respected and valued member of the community, and we will remain steadfast in our commitment to the mission of our students’ success on our Del Mar campus.” The Winston School has been located at the Shores Park property since 1988. After the school helped raise funds for the city to buy the property from the Del Mar Union School District in 2007, school and city officials signed a 55-year lease in 2010. Lease disagreements The main issue forming the basis for the lawsuit is whether the city of Del Mar acted in bad faith by determining that Winston School’s plan to significantly remodel four of the onsite buildings did not satisfy their lease requirements for property improvements and chose to terminate the lease as a result. Specifically, the lease required Winston School to submit a redevelopment application deemed “complete” by the city to meet the first milestone for redevelopment as required by the lease. The deadline for this milestone, initially set for December 2019, was pushed back during the COVID-19 pandemic to October 2020. While city officials claim the school’s plans were lacking, Winston School officials say they submitted over 13 plans to the city for the remod-

el between 2019 and 2021 to meet new requirements constantly introduced by the city throughout the process. These included demands for a parking study and detailed construction plans, which Winston officials say should have been required not during the application process but later on during the permit application. Winston School’s deadline to correct deficiencies identified by the city, referred to as a 90-day cure period, was ultimately extended to July 2021. Despite the submittal of additional plans by Winston, the city determined that the school had failed to meet the requirements for the application. Lease terms stated that the city could terminate the lease or shorten its term to 40 years if the school failed to correct redevelopment plan deficiencies by the end of the 90-day cure period. The Del Mar City Council unanimously voted at a subsequent August 2021 meeting to terminate the lease, giving the Winston School until July 1, 2023, to vacate the property, demolish the current buildings and restore the site to a graded lot. Winston School filed its lawsuit shortly after in October 2021. Court moves Before the setting of a trial date, the most recent action in the case occurred on March 11, when Judge Medel issued a temporary

ruling granting the city of Del Mar’s request for a demurrer related to Winston School’s requests for declaratory relief related to the lease. A demurrer, also known as a motion to dismiss, is a request for the court to dismiss causes for action in a claim. In this case, Medel tentatively ruled that six of the eight causes for action within the school’s complaint “point to specific grounds for breach of contract” rather than declaratory relief, which provides a statement of a parties’ rights from the court. “Declaratory relief is

REGION — The average price of a gallon of selfserve regular gasoline in San Diego County dropped Wednesday for the 35th consecutive day, decreasing 2.9 cents to $5.821, its lowest amount since May 6. The average price has decreased 55.2 cents during the streak, including 2.8 cents Tuesday, according to figures from the AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. The average price is 19.2 cents less than one week ago and 51.9 cents lower than one month ago, but $1.511 more than one year ago. not the proper vehicle to determine whether the parties performed under the terms of a terminated lease agreement,” Medel stated in the ruling. Another demurrer hearing will take place on Aug. 19. Cunitz emphasized that Winston School’s causes of action are still very much active in the meantime. “At the time, it is essential to understand that none of Winston’s causes of action have been dismissed. The judge requested more information be added to the complaint, which the School has provided. Winston has not lost anything; the City has not gained anything. The judge will make a decision on the amended complaint in August,” Cunitz said. Leslie Devaney, attorney for the city of Del Mar, said plans for the trial would not be impacted even if Medel rules in favor of the city’s demurrer motion in August. “The City’s demurrers (there have been two) relate only to Winston’s declaratory relief causes of action and not its contract theories. Whatever the Court decides on the demurrer, trial dates set earlier this month would not be impacted, and the matter will move forward,” Devaney said.

Frontwave secures naming rights for Sockers’ new Oceanside arena By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE – A naming rights partnership has officially termed a new sports arena in Oceanside’s 465-acre El Corazon Park. Frontwave Arena, named after Frontwave Credit Union, will be the new permanent home of the San Diego Sockers, according to a recent release. “We’re thrilled to have secured the exclusive naming rights to their new Oceanside home,” said Frontwave CEO and president Bill Birnie in a statement to The Coast News. Frontwave will also be the “official credit union” of the Sockers and sponsors of the 2021-22 season. In 2009, the Sockers first played in the 3,500seat Del Mar Arena at the Del Mar Fairgrounds during the team’s first season before moving to the Pechanga Arena in San Diego three years later. Since 2012, the club has struggled to schedule games due to conflicts with other events at Pechanga. The 170,000-square-

foot arena is currently under construction in the El Corazon sports complex near Oceanside Boulevard and Rancho del Oro Drive and is scheduled to open by

The arena can seat more than 6,000 fans for sporting events and up to 7,600 for concerts. A full-service restaurant, bars, concessions, a plaza area and sixteen luxury suites will be included. Besides Major Arena Soccer League games, the arena will host concerts, amateur sports (including

high school and college games), and community events throughout the year. “We see Frontwave Arena becoming a hub of activity for North County, the likes of which we have never seen before,” stated Oside Arena Management President Sean Bowers in the naming rights partnership announcement. Starting on Camp Pendleton in 1952, Frontwave Credit Union reached out to the Oceanside Chamber of Commerce to find out ways to get involved with the arena. “We felt supporting this new venue would be a great opportunity to support our community as well as economic growth in the region,” said Frontwave spokesperson Amber Gabrenas via email. “Once the arena received final approval from the City of Oceanside, we then signed the naming rights agreement for Frontwave Arena.” With Frontwave, Bowers hopes to “change the face of entertainment in San Diego’s North County.”

SDG&E customers to get credits on upcoming bills By City News Service

Earlier this year, SDG&E’s residential natural gas customers also received $43.06 in credits from the program, administered by the California Public Utilities Commission as part of the state's attempt to fight climate change. According to the utility company, there is no action required to receive the credits. All electricity custom-

ers will automatically receive the credits in their August and September billing cycles. SDG&E will also alert customers to the Climate Credits via email. This year’s climate credits total $171.40, which is roughly double last year's amount. In addition to residential customers, eligible small businesses will also receive the climate credits on their electric bills. The credits will be applied during what are typically the hottest months in the year, when energy use tends to be higher due to air conditioning. The California Climate Credit is a state program that “requires power

plants, natural gas providers and other large industries that emit greenhouse gases to buy carbon pollution permits,” according to a statement from SDG&E. “The credits on customers’ bills represent their share of the payments from the state’s program and provide customers with an increased opportunity to invest in energy-saving products.” Customers struggling to pay their bill can visit sdge.com/assistance to explore all of the resources available to them, including bill discounts, debt relief, payment arrangements and free energy efficiency upgrades that can help lower their bill.

Some residents evicted from El Norte forced into homelessness By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — Following eviction, some of the former residents of an El Norte property face homelessness and housing insecurity. Several residents who lived in a house and a few trailers on a property at 2130 W. El Norte Pkwy were ordered to move out in the early morning of July 6. While accused as squatters by some neighbors and other news outlets, the residents had received permission to live there from the previous owners. The owner Robert E. Donelson died in 2019. Later, the plan was for his stepdaughter Terry Bearer and the other property residents to pool money to buy the property together. But the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) purchased the property after it fell into foreclosure in September 2021. In May, a court ruled in HUD’s favor in an unlawful detainer case, allowing the agency to evict the residents from the property. HUD is responsible for national policy and programs addressing the country’s housing needs. The agency provides cities with grant funding for affordable housing, homeless resources and economic opportunities. At the same time, the city of Escondido sued the residents for turning the property into a “public nui-

sance.” The lawsuit cited large amounts of “trash, junk, debris, inoperable vehicles” and tenants living in RVs connected to public utilities on the property, all of which are against city code. Residents wanted to appeal the case but were unable to do so. Although some neighbors have complained about the property, surrounded

by growingly dense residential development, others weren’t bothered. Ryleigh Sims, a neighbor who bought her house last year, said the property never affected her property values. While she understands that HUD had a legal right to evict the residents, that “doesn’t make it moral.” “I don’t feel the property is a nuisance or the

(former residents),” Sims said in an email. “I don’t really notice them.” Residents were also threatened to vacate the property last month when their water was shut off. While they had money to pay the bill, the Vista Irrigation District wouldn’t turn the water back on without HUD’s permission, which the residents never received.

Organizers from a local chapter of the Party for Socialism and Liberation had brought the residents water in large jugs over the last month. Juliana Musheyev, one of the organizers, has kept in close contact with at least three of the property’s former residents. So far, one of them has been able to find a place to hook up her trailer, while another had to park her trailer near her work, which is against city code and has already gained her several visits from police and code enforcement. Some former residents hoped that Interfaith Community Services, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless individuals, could prevent them from returning to the street, but high demand has made it difficult. “We provide a lot of services, including shelter and housing, but the bad news is all of those shelters are full with minimal resources that frankly don’t keep up with the demand now,” said Greg Anglea, CEO of Interfaith. “We’ve seen a more than 50% increase in family homelessness regionally.” North San Diego County needs more homeless shelters, according to Anglea. “There’s a big misconception or lack of understanding from people in the community who think if someone is home-

less and wants to get help, they could just agree to go to a shelter,” Anglea said. “While that may be true in the city of San Diego, which has 2,000 shelter beds, there are only 99 brickand-mortar shelter beds for more than 1,400 people experiencing homelessness in one night in North San Diego County.” While the city of Oceanside prepares to open its new 50-bed shelter and the city of Vista intends to launch a safe, overnight parking program, far more resources are needed to help shelter homeless individuals and families. “We need shelters in all our communities experiencing homelessness,” Anglea said. Interfaith has been operating a temporary shelter through a motel since last August using COVID relief funds. That program has so far serviced 250 people with five babies born to families in the shelter since it opened. Interfaith is currently renovating a location on North Ash Street for a permanent shelter. “We operate low barrier shelters that are trauma-informed,” Anglea said. “We meet individuals wherever they are and help them get stabilized.” But for many of the residents who were evicted earlier this month, they feel as though they were kicked out without the city giving any tangible assistance.

he heartfelt putt Priest James Rivera stood over was difficult to read. Despite the countless times he had eyed the lie, it was a chore deciding if the ball would break toward the nurse’s station or the hospital parking lot. “I hit it pretty good,” Rivera said, as he aimed for a glass laid on the floor. That stroke came in 2019, when a bandaged and battered Rivera had a putter in his hand and a grin on his mug. After suffering significant burns in a school science experiment that went terribly wrong, here was Rivera at the UC San Diego Health Center deciphering if his putt would go right or left. Nearby was his mother, Gina Rivera, seeing the light return to her son’s soul. After an agonizing, weeklong stint in the burn unit, Priest needed all the prayers, and forgiving breaks, he could receive. “He was a competitive golfer,” she said. “But when he was in the hospital, he had multiple surgeries and was hooked up to everything. He fell into a bit of depression in thinking what his life was going to look like.” Priest’s vision was to be linked to his trusty Scotty Cameron putter. So, when his father, Jason Rivera, brought the flat blade into

the hospital room, Priest started singing like a birdie. “Despite being tied up to everything, Priest would try two or three putts into a glass and then go lay back down,” Gina said. “That putting gave him something to live for.” It also planted a seed for Priest Rivera to extend a hand. Fast forward to this summer. Rivera, 16, was instrumental in raising money for a putting green that was installed last month for those brave patients at the UCSD

Bannister Family House, a living facility for those undergoing long-term care. It’s all part of the Priest James Foundation, which is led by the tenacious Carlsbad teenager. “I know how important golf was for me when I was in the hospital, as it gave me an extra boost of confidence,” said Rivera, who suffered burns to his face, neck, chest and ears. “It was tough the first couple of days in there because I had no clue what I would look like. I thought I would be disfigured for the rest of my life.”

Rivera, who studies online through the Classical Academy, rebounded like an ace. But he never forgot, or will forget, what putting meant to him as he stiffarmed pain and self-doubt. That’s why his passion is not only for going low in golf but seeing how the game can turn frowns upside down. “It feels pretty good, honestly, to help so many people,” Rivera said. “Just to put a smile on their face because they can putt, despite their injuries.” Rivera, who participated in the recent US Amateur qualifying tournament, is on the move. He’s installing another putting green at a Los Angeles burn facility as the City of Angels borrows someone with wings from North County. That’s Rivera and amen that he turned a dark moment into a way to spread love through golf. “It was a pretty tragic event and he went through a lot of adversity,” Gina Rivera said. “He really wants to help others with their healing and it’s just so inspiring for all of us.” Others are pitching in. Pro golfer Rickie Fowler sent an encouraging video, Scotty Cameron reached out with a care package and if we can extend a back-slap, we’re here for that. That Priest Rivera is there for others is a summer blessing. For those tackling the road that he traveled, Rivera is there to lean on. Knowing Rivera, he’ll likely have a putter for that, too.

Christian School and the University of Texas, was taken in the 10th round, the 291st pick overall, by the Wash ington Nationals. According to the San Diego Un i o n -Tr i bune, this year marked the first time JONES since the draft's inception in 1965 that no high school player from San Diego County was selected. The three-day draft was held this week in Los Angeles as part of the AllStar Game festivities.

Carlsbad All-Star team has ‘absolute blast’ at World Series By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — The city’s mighty sluggers put on a show this season culminating with an appearance at the West Zone World Series in Simi Valley last weekend. The Carlsbad Youth Baseball Shetland Division 6-and-under All-Star team went 1-2 at the World Series and also became the first Carlsbad Youth Baseball 6U team to win a regional championship. Assistant coach Brian Thill said the boys were thrilled to win the regional and qualify, making most of the opportunity at the World Series with a 20-10 victory over North Valley to open pool play. However, Carlsbad fell in its final two games to Olive and Westlake to end their spectacular run in the Pony-affiliated tournament. “The kids had an absolute blast and even competed in a home run derby,” Thill said. “They were so excited (to win). The caliber of teams was fantastic.” The league consists of 60-foot basepaths and a

ENCINITAS — A 12-year-old Cardiff girl, who picked up a javelin for the first time four months ago, is heading to the USATF National Junior Olympic Track and Field Championships next month in Sacramento. Since March, Mikayla Pieratt has launched a promising athletic career in the sport, throwing a personal best of 31.78 meters to win her age group at the Region 15 Junior Olympic Championships on June 23 at Orange Glen High School in Escondido. Pieratt’s first-place throw — 3 meters farther than the next competitor — also punched her ticket to nationals. “It’s been really fun to be successful,” Pieratt said. “It’s a new, fun challenge. I was at one of my first meets for track, and I saw the younger kids doing it… I saw it and thought, ‘I can do that.'” The young athlete is involved in several sports, including playing catcher for a local softball team and competitive sprinting with Speed Evolution Track Club based in Solana Beach. For this year’s outdoor track season, Pieratt decided to compete unattached with her newfound skill. Over the past four months, the young javelin thrower has placed — usually in first — bringing her through each round leading to the July 25 games at

Hornet Stadium. “She is so motivated and diligent in the discipline at such a young age, I know she’s gonna do an excellent job,” said Coach Jasmine Burrell. Burrell, a San Diego State University throwing coach (javelin, hammer, shot put, discus) and decorated NCAA track and field athlete, took over coaching Pieratt from dad shortly after she picked up the spear. “We didn’t know what we were doing,” she said. Pieratt trains daily, working hard to get better

for her next competition. Burrell said she encourages the young athlete in a fun, learning environment. However, she could see Pieratt had the early signs of throwing promise. “I thought, ‘Oh, she’s gonna be a force to be reckoned with,'” Burrell said after a meet-and-greet with Pieratt several months ago. The javelin throw is a track and field event where athletes throw a metal-tipped spear — about 2.5 meters long — for the longest distance. In this ancient game dating back

to 708 B.C., athletes throw the spear over their shoulders and must strike the ground with the tip of their spear to complete a valid throw. “It was one of those recreational things that she was trying out,” Burrell told The Coast News, adding that Pieratt’s mother, Jennifer, came to track her down on Instagram for a coaching query. “She happens to be really good at javelin.” Burrell coaches other athletes in various divisions and age groups. She said that younger athletes should always be free to try any sport that interests them. As athletes get older, they “will naturally gravitate” toward a particular sport, Burrell explained, but when they’re 12 — like Pieratt — it’s all about fundamentals and having fun. Burrell also encouraged more athletes and sport-lovers to engage in track and field — a sport sometimes overlooked due to costs. However, Burrell said there is tremendous talent brewing in the games. “Track and field is one of the greatest sports of all time,” she said, adding, “I encourage everyone to start paying close attention to the things that are going to transpire … from young kids at USATF level to … the adaptive athletic, for the Paralympics. That’s really big, and people don’t know they exist.” The youth national championships will be held from July 25 through July 31 at the California State University’s Hornet Stadium in Sacramento.

hosting them. The food and guests are always ethnically diverse, with many different types of rice, vegetable and chicken dishes. so I set out to learn about chutney as an accompaniment to these exotic dinners. WHAT IS CHUTNEY? According to thespruceeats.com, “the term chutney comes from the East Indian chatni, meaning ‘strongly spiced.’ “Chutneys have a fruit base, but many non-sweet vegetables can also be used. Once you get the basic concept down, you can experiment with any number of fruits or vegetables. “There are hundreds, if not thousands, of possible combinations to make this tasty condiment. “The most common flavors in chutney are ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, allspice, cardamom, raisin, mango, tamarind, citrus fruit, apricot, peach, coriander, mint, onion, and garlic. “But those aren’t the only options; there are plenty of innovative takes on chutney that use pineapple, coconut, rose hips, pumpkin, quince, plums, or carrots. “Making your own chutney is an easy process, and it begins with selecting the fruit. Use firm-fleshed, under-ripe fruits such as green mangos, bananas, 7/11/22 3:06 PM peaches, apples, nectarines,

and apricots. Rhubarb and firm or under-ripe tomatoes are also good candidates. “Dried fruits work particularly well in chutneys since they retain their texture yet contribute a tart flavor offset by the sugar and spices. “Avoid soft fruits with delicate flavors such as raspberries and strawberries because they will cook down into more of a smooth jam and lose their flavor.” CREATE YOUR OWN CHUTNEY RECIPE After searching the internet, I finally found a tried and true recipe in “The New York Times International Cookbook,” by Craig Claiborne. I adapted it a bit using Granny Smith apples as a starter. The recipe can be served immediately if quickly cooked (½ hour) or cooked down to make a thicker, darker version. I added Asian sweet sauce since I was low on sugar, and it was a great substitute. Add your favorite hot sauce, only at the end, to taste.

Operation Duffel Bag helps homeless high school grads By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — Nearly 60 graduating students experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity were given duffel bags filled with more than $400 worth of items before the recent school year ended. For the last few years, the Assistance League of Inland North County has distributed these duffel bags as a graduation gift for McKinney-Vento students in the Escondido Union High School District as part of Operation Duffel Bag. According to California law, the McKinney-Vento Act defines “homeless youth” as those who lack a fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence, which includes children living in hotels, motels, shelters, cars, parks, abandoned buildings, bus or train stations or other unstable living environ-

ments. The Assistance League of Inland North County is one of several Assistance League branches across the

country, including several others in Southern California. Last year, the Assistance League gave 76 duffel

bags to students across Escondido’s high schools. This year, that number dropped to 57, which meant the organization could make each bag a little richer according to Jorgine Ellerbrock, chair of the Operation Duffel Bag committee. Prior to distributing bags to Escondido’s high schools, the Assistance League took Operation Duffel Bag to San Pasqual Academy. Ellerbrock said the committee reached out to the teenage members of the league to figure out what students would like in the duffel bags. The items included gift cards to Target and Walmart, blenders, bungee cords, laundry bags and detergent, sleeping bags and sleeping pads, solar-operated battery packs, kitchen tools, pillows and blankets,

first-aid kits, toolkits and personal hygiene products. With the gift cards, students have the ability to choose their own products to buy, which EUHSD social worker Kim Bodie said is important for the graduating seniors. “It’s the little things we don’t realize that are so important to a young person — being able to choose socks or shoes, deodorant — gift cards give them the autonomy to choose,” Bodie said. For Bodie, the duffel bags serve as a way to show the students that there are people who care for them. “It can feel alone, isolating and even shameful to be in these circumstances,” Bodie said. “Operation Duffel Bag is a really wonderful send-off at a time of angst and anxiety.” The Assistance League has also supported district

students through scholarships, computer donations and Operation School Bell, which invites students and their families to go to Kohl’s and spend money from the organization on clothes. Operation School Bell costs the organization $200,000, making it the most expensive philanthropic item on the budget. “We’re really just looking for the needs in our community and doing what we can to address them,” Ellerbrock said. The Assistance League of Inland North County runs a consignment shop at 2068 E. Valley Pkwy. in Escondido that helps raise funds for its community giveback events. The shop is open Tuesdays and Fridays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and the first Saturday of each month from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

I have a real problem with that.” In a letter to Hueso, Carlsbad Mayor Matt Hall wrote in opposition to the proposed new agency, noting the redundancy of creating another entity with nearly the same authority as SANDAG or the County Board of Supervisors. Hall also expressed concerns that taxes to the agency from Carlsbad residents won’t guarantee housing in the city and whether the housing produced would count toward municipal obligations under the Regional Housing Needs Assessment. The Carlsbad City Council’s legislative subcommittee also opposed the bill in its totality, as the new agency would have no accountability. Hall said the bill establishes a complex set of requirements regarding how funding is spent and eligibility conditions, and there is no guarantee of local reimbursement or offsetting benefits. Hall also cited an analysis by the Assembly Housing and Community Development Committee questioning whether the proposed regional housing agency would succeed. The committee highlighted critical issues in the proposal, such as creating a governing body with nearly duplicate powers like other regional authorities, the complexity of expenditure requirements, and the degree of “local buy-in” around the proposed agency. Also, the report concludes that the first opportunity for San Diego Regional Equitable and Environmentally Friendly Affordable Housing Agency to raise revenue would not be until the 2024 general election. “The Legislative Subcommittee (sic) raised concerns about the State’s (sic) proposal to establish a locally redundant and costly bureaucracy that would operate without direct accountability to the voters of San Diego County,” Hall’s letter reads.

Orphaned bear cubs transferred to rehab Rotary reaches out

to community helpers

By City News Service

RAMONA — Three orphaned California black bear cubs have been transferred to San Diego Humane Society's Ramona Wildlife Center for rehabilitation over the past two weeks, it was announced Monday. Two of the cubs came from Valley of Falls in the San Bernardino Mountains, and the third from Lake Arrowhead. The bears all arrived on separate dates, after being rescued by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The first two — who arrived July 9 and 12 — are siblings around five months old. According to Fish and Wildlife, they became orphaned after their mother, who was conditioned to seek food from humans, was killed by a person while attempting to break into a cabin in Valley of the Falls. The third, unrelated cub arrived on Friday. The cub's mother is believed to have been hit by a car near Lake Arrowhead. At the Ramona Wildlife Center, the Project Wildlife team will provide an environment where the cubs can practice their natural skills and get the proper nutrition they need to grow.

Odd Files Goals The trail to the top of Pike’s Peak in Colorado is some 13 miles long, and the peak itself tops out at more than 14,000 feet — making it a challenging hike for anyone. But for Bob Salem, 53, the journey is nuttily complicated: He’s pushing a peanut up the mountain using his “nose”: customized headgear made of a CPAP mask with a black plastic serving spoon attached to it, NPR reported. “Basically, I’m just going to ... low crawl my way up there,” he said. “I mean, there’s not really much to it but just to keep flicking.” It’s all part of the Manitou Springs 150-Year Celebration, and Salem is raising money for a local charity that works to house people experiencing homelessness. Oddly, he’s not the first to achieve the feat, but he’ll be the first in the 21st century. Salem is wearing kneepads and elbow pads, and a spotter carries his backpack with a snowsuit inside for the higher elevations. He’s expected to reach the summit the weekend of July 16-17.

Former Navy pilot on path to receive Medal of Honor  Escondido veteran prevailed in Soviet dogfight By City News Service

ESCONDIDO — An amendment to grant the Congressional Medal of Honor to an Escondido resident and former U.S. Naval aviator who prevailed in perhaps the longest aerial dogfight between a lone American fighter pilot and enemy combatants was approved July 14 by the House of Representatives. E. Royce Williams, 97, was the focus of an amendment that Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Bonsall and other representatives attached to the National Defense Authorization Act, nominating the veteran for the nation’s highest award for heroism. The amendment and bill were approved and forwarded to the Senate. Issa made a speech on the floor of the House hailing Williams as “an American hero and a Top Gun pilot like no other,” saying there were few comparisons to the “the heroism and valor he demonstrated for 30 harrowing minutes, 70 years ago, in the skies over the North Pacific and coast of North Korea.” “It is, to this day, the most unique U.S.-Soviet aerial combat dogfight in

E. ROYCE WILLIAMS, 97, of Escondido was a Navy combat pilot during the Korean War. Williams’ sngle-seat F9F Panther fighter jet, right, was riddled with holes after his dogfight with Soviet MiG-15s over the Yalu River in November 1952. Photos by Vincent Passaro/Courtesy

the history of the Cold War — and one that is truly for the ages,” Issa said. Williams, who retired from the Navy as a captain in the mid-1970s, was on combat air patrol in a single-seat F9F Panther fighter jet, flying with three other squadron mates deployed from a carrier anchored in the Sea of Japan, on Nov. 18, 1952, when the Americans encountered seven Soviet MiG-15s at higher altitude along the Yalu River. According to accounts

of the mission retold in books and other media, the men were ordered by their commander to retreat to the carrier and establish a protective screen. Three of the pilots succeeded, but Williams soon discovered he had been boxed in by the Soviet fighters. Williams was forced to engage the MiGs as they swarmed him, culminating in a half-hour of gut-wrenching maneuvers to avoid being shot down while trying to take out

the Russian pilots trying to kill him. “I was engaged mentally at the time,” Williams recently told the San Diego Union-Tribune. “A lot of it was awareness of where they were and how I had to maneuver to avoid them. They were taking turns. “I decided if I concentrated on shooting them down, then I’d become an easy target. So my initial goal was to look for defensive opportunities when they made mistakes.”

Williams blasted four out of the sky and likely scored hits on two others, whose pilots never returned to their base in Vladivostik, according to the book “Red Devils Over the Yalu.” Williams said he ran out of ammunition and made a bee line for his ship, evading the seventh MiG pilot by diving in and out of clouds for cover. He landed uneventfully, but later counted more than 250 machine gun holes in his F9F.

“He also survived a 37-millimeter round to his fuselage, where six inches to the right or left would have meant certain death,” Issa said. “This was an act of indomitable courage and the demonstration of the highest skill under incalculable duress.” Williams was told to clam up about the dogfight for fear of causing negative publicity for the Soviets, who weren’t officially involved in the Korean War. According to one account, President Dwight Eisenhower personally directed that the incident remain under wraps. It was not officially acknowledged until the fall of the Iron Curtain, and the ensuing release of Soviet archives in the 1990s, which detailed the air battle. Since then, several personal advocates for Williams have sought to have him nominated for the Medal of Honor, but those efforts haven’t yielded momentum. Along with Issa, four other House members, all from San Diego County, joined to form an advocacy coalition in support of his receipt of the medal. “We won’t stop until Royce Williams receives the recognition he doesn’t seek, but richly deserves,” Issa said. “It is long past time for Congress to have a real say on who receives the Congressional Medal of Honor.”

Main Street El Cajon, CA 92020 Estimated amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $538,735.38 Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt owed.

the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 866266-7512 or visit this Internet Web site www.elitepostandpub. com using the file number assigned to this case 220005451 CA.

TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

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

Solana Beach greenlights Ida Ave. apartment complex  Eight market-rate units to be built on vacant lot near I-5 By Laura Place

SOLANA BEACH — The Solana Beach City Council approved an eight-unit apartment project along Ida Avenue after hearing the developer’s plans to transform the site from a vacant, overgrown patch of land along Interstate-5 into a family-oriented residential complex. The for-lease, market-rate apartments will be located on a site just under one acre in size, south of Genevieve Avenue and directly west of I-5. Two of the units will be in a duplex, and the remaining six will be housed in a neighboring second building, with both structures surrounded by landscaping and a playground to the west. “We believe the Ida Avenue site, currently covered with ice plants and bare patches of ground, can be altered to be used as a verdant parcel that perpetuates Solana Beach’s coastal community charm,” said Sam Chereskin, principal of Chereskin Architecture and architect for the project. The City Council approved a development review permit and structure

development permit and mitigated negative declaration for the project at their July 13 meeting, over four years after applicant KNN Management LLC first applied for the project in March 2018. Another developer also applied to develop

residential units on the site back in 2008, but it was withdrawn, according to city staff. Council members were pleased to finally see a viable project for the space. “We have seen the storey poles up there in a variety of configurations for

many, many years. I never thought it would get done, and you’ve provided us with a really nice project, and I think it fits in well with a single-family neighborhood with some multifamily as well,” Mayor Lesa Heebner told project representatives. While council members are eager to see new residential developments be used for affordable housing whenever possible, this project comes with more complex requirements. Since the application was first submitted in 2018, it is still subject to

the affordable housing requirements at that time, which mandate the developer to pay affordable housing impact fees calculated based on the square footage. KNN Management must pay the city just over $400,000 in fees to go toward future affordable housing projects before being issued any building or grading permits. If the application had been submitted after new regulations were adopted in 2019, the developer would have been required to set aside 15% of the units — one unit, in this

case — for low- to very low-income households. “I do want to thank the architect for bringing eight housing units to our city; it's fabulous. I do wish one of them was going to be affordable, but I understand why it’s not,” Councilwoman Kristi Becker said. “This is a good chunk of money,” Heebner said. “We are working toward finding projects that we could add this money toward so that we can see more livable affordable units in our community.” Each two-story unit will contain up to three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private yard space and an enclosed patio. A sound wall will also be constructed between the units and I-5 to mitigate noise impacts from the highway. Parking at the site and potential construction impacts were the main concern among neighboring residents on Ida Avenue. There are 20 parking spaces for the complex, including 16 for residents (two per unit) and four guest spaces, all located in onsite garages off the street. City staff confirmed parking would be prohibited directly in front of the development along Ida Avenue. Heebner asked whether it would be possible to allocate some of the approximately 6,000-foot playground area west of the units for additional parking spots, worrying that two spaces would not be enough for some of the three-bedroom units. Chereskin agreed to look into it. Resident Mark Stenson, who identified himself as living across the street from the future site, said the current amount of parking “is not enough, especially in this neighborhood, [where] it’s a project that’s essentially blocked off on the other side from Interstate 5.” However, he said he appreciated the efforts to establish underground, off-street parking at the site. “I’m appreciative of the designs for that project compared to previous attempts for that space,” Stenson said.

Give lost pets a better chance of returning home July is Lost Pet Prevention Month, and for very good reason. While the fireworks and fanfare of Independence Day celebrations are a great deal of fun for us, they can be frightening and confusing for our pets. Most animal shelters like San Diego Humane Society saw a significantly higher intake of lost or stray animals in the days following July Fourth. “This year, our campuses took in 276 stray dogs, cats and small animals who became lost from July 4–7,” said San Diego Humane Society Chief Operating Officer Jessica Des Lauriers. “Heartbreakingly, only 17% of those pets were reclaimed by their owners. We want pet parents to be vigilant yearround to prevent their pets from getting lost in the first place.” Sadly, one in three pets will get lost in their lifetime, and only one in 10 lost pets are found. And for lost pets who are found roaming, a trip to the shelter may not be necessary — or the most effective way to help them find their family. In fact, by staying in the neighborhood where they were found, a pet’s reclaim rate jumps up to 70%. So what should you do if you find a lost pet — whether it’s after July Fourth or anytime during the year? These steps may

be all it takes to get Fido or Mittens back to their family: • If you’re able, foster the animal in your home for a few days. Separate them from your own pets and give them food, water and a safe place to stay

while you try to find their family. • Take a photo and post the animal on your social media, Nextdoor and Facebook groups, and other online lost and found pet pages like Petco Love Lost. You can hang some

flyers in the neighborhood or even put a “Found Pet” poster in your front yard or car window. • For lost dogs, try leashing and taking them for a walk. The owners may be out searching, or your neighbors might identify the dog. • Take the animal to a vet’s office or pet store to scan for a microchip. • Submit a Lost Pet Report with San Diego Humane Society. If all else fails, or if you cannot safely keep the animal, bring them to your local animal shelter. Organizations like San Diego Humane Society will treat, care for and ultimately rehome an animal if their family is unable to be found. Of course, the best prevention against losing your pet to begin with is a microchip and a collar with up-to-date tags. In a pinch, you can simply write your phone number on the collar with a Sharpie. And when those fireworks go off on the Fourth, remember to keep your furry family members safely indoors and give them extra love to get through the stressful sounds.

ment provided by Curran. “ This is just another politically motivated, right-wing attack on Mayor Blakespear. This is nothing more than a frivolous and blatantly partisan lawsuit,” Sabellico said. “Mayor Blakespear is not a Senator, but as a candidate for the State Senate, she holds herself to the same high standards outlined in the California State Senate’s social media policy. The Senate’s social media policy does not allow individuals to post comments which are harassing, abusive, or spam. Repeated violations may result in the account losing access.” The city of Encinitas declined to comment on the potential litigation.

In April, Curran submitted a cease-and-desist letter to Blakespear on behalf of the plaintiffs, requesting the mayor allow residents to freely exchange their views on her Facebook posts without being blocked or having their comments deleted. In response, Blakespear unblocked Nichols and others and eventually agreed to settle under the previously mentioned settlement terms while not admitting any wrongdoing. While it is not illegal for a private individual to restrict public access to

In her apology post via Facebook, Blakespear denied using the page in an official government capacity. “My campaign social media page is not an official city-sponsored or city-funded social media page, and no decisions are being made by the government on my social media pages,” Blakespear wrote. “Politics on social media have become an incubator for hate and vitriol that turns too many civically

To that end, I publicly apologize to anyone who did not have full access to my campaign Facebook page or other social media accounts.” In comments made to The Coast News, Nichols again criticized the apology as insincere and disparaging toward himself and other residents.

Nichol also argued Blakespear’s censorship of critics on social media was a longstanding pattern of abusive behavior that forced the situation into the legal realm. “Mayor Catherine Blakespear has willingly and knowingly been breaking the law and sworn oath of office for years,” Nichols said. “Over the years, many residents, including myself, have brought this to her attention and asked her to stop. She was given ample warning and refused to stop, continuing to delete public comments and block people from her official ‘Mayor Catherine Blakespear’ page. “In the settlement agreement (Blakespear) signed, she was asked to apologize to those she blocked and make a settlement payment from her personal account. She did neither. “Instead, she delivered an offensive and disparaging rant that labeled the residents she blocked as dangerous, threatening, and abusive. “Some of these residents include a local firefighter, schoolteacher, several candidates for local office, a person with disabilities, a former planning commissioner, and concerned parents. These aren’t dangerous and threatening trolls, as she insinuates — these are concerned community members.”

Golden Door Country Store nurtures its land, community Nestled among the hills is a country store with a mission to nurture the community with its sustainably grown produce and artisanal goods. The Golden Door Country Store came out of a need for fresh produce during the pandemic. Its predecessor, the Golden Door Farm Stand, was well known but had a smaller reach than what the country store would soon grow to have. “During the pandemic we saw an increase in the community coming to us for their produce,” said Kathy Van Ness, General Manager and Chief Operating Officer, “With many unable to shop indoors, the Golden Door Country Store became their first stop for necessities.” In addition to the farm’s fresh produce, Chef Greg Frey Jr. began baking fresh sourdough bread every Saturday that soon started to sell out in just hours. The county store belongs to the Golden Door Luxury Resort & Spa, which rests on 600 acres of land in the Twin Oaks Valley. The country store itself is located on 15 acres of land directly across from the resort. The bulk of the property consists of its farm, which includes five vegetable gardens, orange, lemon, avocado and olive trees.

processes within alveolar type II cells.” Those AT2 cells play several roles in pulmonary function, including the production of lung surfactant that keeps lung cells from collapsing after exhalation and regeneration of lung cells after injury. “The findings are insightful because AT2 cells are known to contain an elegant quality control network that responds to stress, internal or external,” Ghosh said. “Failure of quality control leads to broader organ dysfunction and, in this case, fibrotic remodeling of the lung.” To conduct the study, Ghosh collaborated with co-author Debashis Sahoo, associate professor in the departments of Computer Science, Engineering and Pediatrics at UCSD for the AI assisted analysis among other aspects. Ghosh and Sahoo said the approach would help them stay unbiased in navigating the unknowns of an emerging, post-pandemic disease. They analyzed more than 1,000 human lung datasets associated with various lung conditions, specifically looking for gene expression patterns, inflammation signaling and cellular changes. The disease with the closest match: IPF. IPF affects around 100,000 people in the United States, with 30,000 to 40,000 new cases annually. The condition has a poor prognosis, with an estimated mean survival of 2 to 5 years from time of diagnosis.

CHILD PORN

Dasko. Prosecutors said the teacher and “Mr. Pickles” exchanged more than 3,600 messages over the course of a year, the majority of which revolved around “sexually exploiting children they knew or met online.” They also traded image and video files, though the complaint states that the content of many of these files could not be viewed by law enforcement. However, the complaint states that last year, “Alex” sent “Mr. Pickles”a sexually explicit video he had acquired from a teenage boy, which “Mr. Pickles” then sent to the Philadelphia teacher. Dasko was arrested last Wednesday at his home and appeared before a San Diego federal judge the following day. Prosecutors said that upon his arrest, he admitted he was “Mr. Pickles.” The complaint states that he also admitted “that he would solicit others for images of minor males who were naked.” Victims or anyone with information about this case was encouraged to call the FBI San Diego Field Office at 858-320-1800 or submit a tip at tips.fbi.gov.

REGION — UC San Diego researchers have found that a post- COVID lung disease shares origins with other scarring lung diseases, which may offer a path to effective therapies, according to a study released this week. Although most people recover relatively quickly from COVID-19, around one-third of survivors experience symptoms weeks and months after the initial infection. However, in the study published in Wednesday’s online issue of eBioMedicine, UCSD scientists studied interstitial lung disease, a form of “long COVID” that consists of a group of chronic pulmonary disorders characterized by inflammation and scarring of the lung. The researchers said little is currently known about ILD — which can be fatal without a lung transplant in its most severe form. But they found insights into the causes and paths the disease may take. “Using an artificial intelligence approach, we found that lung fibrosis caused by COVID-19 resembles idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, the most common and the deadliest form of ILD,” said co-senior study author Dr. Pradipta Ghosh, professor in the departments of Medicine and Cellular and Molecular Medicine at UCSD School of Medicine. “At a fundamental level, both conditions display similar gene expression patterns in the lungs and blood, and dysfunctional

Affordable goods and community involvement are also part of the Country Store’s philosophy. “Our mission is to sell incredible fresh produce along with thoughtfully curated artisanal foods at prices that families can afford,” Van Ness said. “Each week we have classes and events, and we show our customers how to eat delicious and nutritious food locally and without breaking the bank.” Weekends at the Country Store are filled with activities from yoga to breadmaking, cooking and flower hat-making classes. Every week has something going on for families with plenty of opportunities to learn new recipes. As the Country Store takes care of its community with access to fresh

produce and creative, new ways to cook them, Golden Door also strives to be a good steward of the land. “As we farm this beautiful land, preserving the rural and historic nature of the valley is important,” Van Ness went on to say. Golden Door achieves this through biointensive farming, which increases the soil’s biodiversity and maintains its fertility. The practice harmonizes the elements, sun and soil to maximize growth in limited spaces, using manure and composts over synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Water conservation is an essential aspect of good environmental stewardship. The farm developed new, sustainable water sources to feed its groves. “At Golden Door we have a solid well system

that produces the necessary water needed to keep the plants healthy and growing,” Van Ness explained. “With the use of reservoirs, we can cycle the water back into the ground and use it again.” Beyond just produce, the Country Store also sells preserves, cookies, peanut butter, potassium broth and olive oil. Plans are also underway to open the Country Store’s new bakery in mid-2023, which will feature Chef Frey Jr’s breads, pastries, pizza and to-go breakfasts and lunches. The Golden Door Country Store is located at 314 Deer Springs Road, San Marcos, and is open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can also shop for Golden Door products online at shop.goldendoor.com.

and middle school-aged children. The Coast News has since learned Dasko coached for the San Diego Ice Arena youth hockey league in the “mite” and “squirt” programs. Prosecutors said the investigation that led to Dasko's arrest began last year regarding the unnamed Philadelphia teacher, who prosecutors say conspired with others to pose as women or girls on social media sites in order to bait minor male victims into sending them nude photos or videos. According to Dasko’s criminal complaint, an FBI agent wrote that the teacher and a person in New York known as “Alex” worked to bait the teacher’s own middle school students into sharing such content. The Philadelphia teacher and “Alex” have since been arrested and charged, according to the complaint. During that investigation, prosecutors say the Philadelphia teacher was found to be communicating online with another person who went by the name “Mr. Pickles,” who the U.S. Attorney’s Office contends is

Staff will provide emergency evaluations and intensive stabilization for those experiencing a mental health emergency, conduct an immediate assessment to work out a next-steps treatment plan and work with private practice physicians to connect patients to further services. San Diego County currently falls far short of the state’s minimum recommended metric of 50 inpatient beds per 100,000 residents, with a rate of 23.34 beds per 100,000 as of 2021, according to a study by RAND Health Care and California Mental Health Services Authority.

Now most residents of North County absolutely understand my form of regional agoraphobia. It’s paradise here. Still, things do happen “outside the bubble” and all of us are occasionally required to venture beyond. One big hurdle to staying North County-bound is the airport. It appears that in the summertime, getting from here to the airport can be very risky business.

Local teacher blends school, community By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — For English teacher Alison Aardappel, maintaining a sense of community in the classroom is essential. “We all belong to the same community,” she said. “We live in a community with a lot of different people, and hopefully we look out for everyone regardless of what separates us.” Aardappel has taught English at Escondido High School for 15 years. She grew up in Vista with a goal of one day becoming a teacher. As a young, avid reader, literature eventually led her to teach English. The Escondido Union High School District recently spotlighted Aardappel’s story, highlighting her achievements as a former Lighthouse and Teacher of the Year award winner. When Aardappel came to Escondido High, she felt like she belonged to a new family. Fellow staff welcomed her with open arms, willing to help as much as possible — a familial closeness between staff that remains strong today. “Among the staff, we TURN TO TEACHER ON B3

see it as we’re all in this together,” Aardappel said. “We share the same vision of wanting to help and support our students, and for the most part students pick up on that.” Aardappel has designed her classroom to make her students feel comfortable as themselves. As a result, the room usually reflects each student in some way, including the 11th graders’ memoir assignments, which is a particular favorite for Aardappel, who believes learning about her students allows her to become a better teacher. While Aardappel could easily relate to all the books she read when she was young, not everyone is the same. Encouraging her students to find interest in literature and language arts means finding connections to their own lives through what they read. Aardappel said she has been diversifying her students’ books to keep them from remaining the

same books in the canon as when she was in high school. “Relating it to their own lives is the best mode to grab their attention,” she said. “It’s finding themselves in it that gets them engaged.” She focuses on the claim, evidence and reasoning model in her class. It starts with a claim that answers a question, using data as evidence and reasoning as to why the evidence supports the claim. In other words, teaching her students how to back up what they have to say and how to discern truth from lies. This model is something students can use outside of the classroom in everyday life, Aardappel explained. Principal Jason Jacobs, who recently became principal in Spring 2021, spoke highly of Aardappel’s ability to connect with students. “They learn how to trust an adult who gives tirelessly of themselves,” Jacobs said. “EHS wouldn’t be EHS without her.”

Coast News legals continued from page A19

If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call the phone number shown below in bold, using the Reference number assigned to this case on SHOWN ABOVE. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Said sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied regarding title, possession or encumbrances, to satisfy the indebtedness secured by said Notice, advances thereunder, with interest as provided therein, and the unpaid assessments secured by said Notice with interest thereon as provided in said Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, fees, charges and expenses of the trustee and the trusts created by said Notice of Assessment and Claim of Lien IN ORDER TO PAY YOUR ACCOUNT CURRENT, PLEASE CONTACT ADVANCED FINANCIAL COMPANY AT (800) 234-6222 EXT 189 Date: 6/30/2022 CHICAGO TITLE COMPANY, As Trustee, 2121 Palomar Airport Road, Suite 330, Carlsbad , CA 92011 Phone no.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: September 01, 2022; Time: 9:30 AM; in Dept.: 503; Room: Judge Kelety. Court address: 1100 Union St., San Diego CA 92101, Probate. Court appearances may be made either in person or virtually, unless otherwise ordered by the Court. Virtual appearances must be made using the department’s Microsoft Teams (“MS Teams”) video link; or by calling the department’s MS Teams conference phone number and using the assigned conference ID number. The MS Teams video conference links and phone numbers can be found at www.sdcourt.ca.gov/ ProbateHearings. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

In loving memory of

Dr. Thomas F. McGee, PHD

Aug. 6, 1930 - Oct. 5, 2021

Dr. Thomas F. McGee, PhD, died October 5, 2021, in Encinitas, California after a brief illness. He was 91. Tom was born August 6, 1930, in Chicago, to Robert W. and Anna (Tyre) McGee. A product of Chicago Public Schools, he went on to earn his undergraduate degree at Roosevelt College in Chicago before completing his PhD in Clinical Psychology at The University of Chicago in 1962. Highlights of his career included a 7-year role as the Director of Mental Health Services for the City of Chicago. During this time, Tom was instrumental in the development of several community mental health

centers in underserved neighborhoods. In 1972 Tom and his beloved wife Lili moved the family from Chicago to Solana Beach, California, with Tom taking the position as Director of Outpatient Psychological Services at Mercy Hospital. After many years at Mercy, during which he supervised many psychology interns, Tom moved to a similar role with the California School of Professional Psychology / Alliant International University. After his formal retirement, Tom remained active in the psychological community, traveling to Hong Kong several times to train psychology students there and serving on several dissertation committees. During his career he frequently presented papers at various conferences; towards the end of his career, he became a vocal proponent of the need for professionals in varied fields to have a “Professional Will” Drafted during the Korean Conflict, Tom was very thankful for his good fortune that saw him stationed in France for 14 months, supporting a unit of architects and structural engineers.

What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, for all that we love deeply becomes part of us. — Helen Keller, author and political activist

Each year both America and South Korea observe the National Korean War Veterans Armistice Day on July 27. This day was started as a way to commemorate the peace treaty that triggered a cease-fire in a long-standing war that resulted in more than 36,000 casualties for America & more than 103,000 service members wounded in action . It is important that we take the time now to listen to their stories and thank them for their service. The men and women who served in the Korean War were called to protect a people they had never met and to defend a country they have never seen. They answered the call and helped stop the spread of communism at a crucial point in world history

Submission Process

Please join us in honoring our Korean War Veterans on July 27th & every day!

Surfer dudes unite

hile African Americans are few within our ranks, most other racial minorities are well represented within the surfing community. If we as surfers thought of ourselves as one tribe, however, one big minority group, we would be protesting how we are portrayed in a careless media. Because of our stage images, we are looked upon as African Americans once were seen as slow and happy, and glad to be of service, much like Amos ’n Andy were in the 1950s when they were the only Blacks shown regularly on TV. Think about it: If all you ever knew of surfers came from the movies, you would think that we were all monosyllabic stoners who aspired to nothing greater than getting high daily and a monthly welfare check. What began with the “Gidget” movies, peaked with Jeff Spicoli and continues to stereotype a group of humans who are united simply by their love of riding waves. Now, I don’t mean to indicate that all surfers are brilliant. Some are quite dumb, graduates, it would seem,CRO from the Jeff Spicoli finishing school. P This group uses the word.93“dude” often, goes .93 to dinner in surf -logoed 4.17shorts and slaps and T-shirt, 4.28 to converse on are unable anything not involving a rising swell. I have plenty of friends in this category, and, honestly, I somewhat envy their happiness, based as it is upon a pedestal of naivete. Surfing is their sport, their religion, their very life. Of course, there are worse things than spending VOLUNTEER

water spot chris ahrens your life waiting for waves. It is as the Gotcha ad once said, “Some people spend their lives waiting for nothing.” Living in a surf bubble is a choice and I have no quarrel with those who choose to do so. The problem is that whenever Hollywood decides to exploit our culture, they concentrate only on a small — okay, maybe not that small — percentage of us, never depicting the medical doctors, business owners and college professors among us. Why so serious, you might ask? Surfing is all for fun, really. It doesn’t matter to anyone other than those riding the waves until some hydrophobic suit decides to build a seawall, or a harbor, or dredge the bottom of your favorite break and ruin it forever. All this has happened before and will happen again if we don’t unite. Those who benefit from exploiting the coast know that Spicoli will never show up for a city council meeting and that if he does, he will stumble over words longer than dude before going back to his ever-shrinking sandbox. *** Please check out my latest passion project, the Godngangsters YouTube channel: https://www.youtube. com/c/GodNGangsters Thank you.

Move gives women’s museum chance to reflect on mission hit the road e’louise ondash

wo thousand pinkyarn pompoms. An intricately embroidered garbage bag. A giant pack of birth control pills made of pastel tissue paper. All these and additional works of art by local women artists are on display at the Women’s Museum of California, located in the Joe and Vi Jacobs Center in Southeast San Diego. The current exhibit is titled, “Crafting Feminism: Textiles of the Women's Movement.” The museum, which celebrates the struggles and achievements of women, opened its newest location on Euclid Avenue in mid-June. (Its collections of papers and artifacts are stored at the San Diego History Center in Balboa Park.) “Some women left our opening crying,” said Felicia Shaw, standing in the 1,700-square-foot space where the walls are covered with art fashioned from paint, fabric, paper, thread, yarn and plastic bags. “(These women) never had the occasion to be in a space dedicated to telling their stories. It’s important to find yourself without having to sift through lots of other stuff.” The museum is one of five in the country dedicated to women’s history, and the Smithsonian has one on the drawing board, according to Shaw. The museum had its origins with San Diegan Mary Maschal (1924-1998), a historian, lobbyist and lecturer who had an extensive collection of artifacts that told of the history and experiences of women, especially in San Diego and the state. “She was a self-taught historian who was concerned with the lack of representation of women,” Shaw said. In 1995, Maschal opened her large Victorian

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Felicia Shaw talks about one of the artworks in the current exhibit, “Crafting Feminism: Textiles of the Women’s Movement,” at the Women’s Museum of California. It is one of only five brick-and-mortar museums in the country dedicated to the issues and history of the women’s movement. Photo by E’Louise Ondash

home in the Golden Hill neighborhood so the public could see her collection. “It wasn’t long before she outgrew her home. The collection was then moved to a teeny space, but at least it wasn’t her home.” In 2001, the museum co-founded the San Diego County Women’s Hall of Fame, and in 2011, moved to the Arts District in Liberty Station (the Naval Training Center from 1923 to 1997). The pandemic closed this location in 2020, but also provided an opportunity. “It gave us a chance to examine whether the

museum was as relevant as it could be,” Shaw said. “We were steeped in the suffrage movement and seemed to be stuck there. “We are now in the third wave of the women’s movement, with the #MeToo movement, gender equality, LGBTQ equality.” The museum also wanted to reach more locals. “Liberty Station is pretty touristy, so we didn’t have a lot of San Diegans coming through, especially those of color and low-income.” The Jacobs Center, in an ethnically diverse area, seemed to fulfill these needs and present an op-

portunity. “We want to spend the next six months growing our visitors and members,” Shaw said. “We could be a cultural anchor for the area.” Admission is free from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on first Saturdays. The museum hosts a free, monthly, 60-minute walking tour of Balboa Park to explore the role that women played in establishing the park and staging the 1915 California-Panama Exposition. The next tour is 10 a.m. August 7. Check it out: Women’s Equality Day Festival on Aug 27.

A scam geared toward networking professionals ask

mr. marketing rob weinberg

he ad seemed genuine enough. Posted on LinkedIn, it offered a portal for paid Board of Director seats. Intrigued, I scheduled a 20-minute interview. LinkedIn, for those unfamiliar with it, is THE place to have a professional profile. It’s inhabited by professionals of every stripe, discipline and industry, and is for business networking only. So here was this ad from Boardsi, a firm I’d never heard of. But I got busy and had to cancel the meeting … plus something just didn’t “feel” right. So I did a bit of research, only to uncover hundreds of posts about what a scam this company is. Well, you know the old saying about where there’s smoke … Apparently, this firm (also known as ExecRanks and AdvisorCloud) posts ads like the one I’d seen, offering $30,000/year or equity to sit on a board. To gain access to their database, you’re charged $200/ month … and many of the

MENTAL HEALTH CONTINUED FROM B1

al health beds were eliminated in the last decade. The region saw the 2018 closure of the Tri-City Medical Center in Oceanside, which held 18 beds, and the loss of a 22-bed unit at Palomar’s former Escondido medical center located in the city’s downtown when it closed in 2012. Because of closures like this, many North County residents experiencing a mental health crisis requiring a hospital stay have had to travel out of the region to the city of San Diego or farther to access services. “At Palomar Health, we’re committed to delivering the highest quality medical care while listening and responding to the needs of the community. We’re so excited to announce this new partnership, which will help leverage the District’s geographic presence to a regional level, enabling us to offer more care to the people who need it,” said Sheila Brown, chief operations officer at Palomar Health.

SAVE WATER

• Is your household missing out on free resources when it rains? Implementing rainwater harvesting provides resource conservation, pollution prevention, and free water for gardens and landscapes. • California summers can be HOT – this year is especially due to low rain falls in the San Diego region. Each individual can play a big part in helping conserve water in their household.

The Coast News graphic

jobs probably don’t even exist. One review after another talked about Boardsi’s lack of communication and an unceasing drive by their sales team to separate you from your credit card number. When I learned this, two old sayings suddenly jumped to mind: John Bridges’ “A fool and his

money are soon parted” and W.C. Fields’ “Never give a sucker an even break.” So I extricated myself from a situation that’s obviously unethical, probably illegal and unquestionably intolerable. And though the temptation was to just move on with my life, it struck me that a column in this pub-

Palomar identifies itself as leading the way in behavioral health support services. According to Palomar spokeswoman Bianca Kasawdish, it is the only “safety net hospital” in North County to provide behavioral health services

for Medi-Cal beneficiaries. The hospital’s behavioral health system includes inpatient care, an acute behavioral health unit, a geriatric psychiatric unit, outpatient therapy, and a substance use disorder recovery center.

lication carries with it a responsibility to alert the public to such fraudulent behavior. So in the interests of doing my daily good deed, I’d like to encourage you to be increasingly vigilant about the shysters, scam artists, and other nefarious efforts to separate you from your hard-earned money.

Because whatever business you’re in, odds are good there’s someone targeting you at this moment with a questionable offer. It may be a “Who’s who in your industry?” book, or an award as the best (fill in the blank) in town. Perhaps not coincidentally, they all seem to have a price point of around $200 in common … too lit-

tle to sue over, but enough (in volume) to net them a tidy sum. And remember … if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing. Meet a straight-talking professional at www.askmrmarketing.com.

Food &Wine

A look at Carlsbad’s newest trattoria taste of wine frank mangio & rico cassoni

love when our readers give us suggestions. Frank recently got a tip from his dentist’s office about a new Italian restaurant in south Carlsbad. As lovers of Italian cuisine, Taste of Wine was ready to visit the 2051 Cucina Italiana. Don’t let the restaurant’s location in a business park across from McClellan–Palomar Airport fool you — it’s some of the best Italian food and welcome addition to the city. 2051 creates authentic, homemade cuisine from the owners' roots in the Province of Modena in northern Italy, famous for Ferrari cars and balsamic vinegar. Under executive chef Musmeci Santo’s leadership, the kitchen crafts each entrée with passion and attention to detail. The homemade pasta is exceptional and is in line with their tagline: “Traditional Italian Cuisine Made with Love.” Also making up the management team are co-owners Simone Vezzali and Giacomo Giovanetti. They first met at age five and grew up together. Additionally, Simone’s sister, Benedetta Vezzali, handles operations management. After coming to California from Madena, Italy, in 2007, Simone had the

take a left of Interstate 5 onto Encinitas Boulevard. Just under the highway, on the right, is a strip mall that I never really noticed. You always see the blue-grey condos with white trim and Oggi’s Pizza and Brewing Co. from the highway. I may not have believed it if I hadn’t seen it for myself, but there is a whole world beyond the exit. Gordy’s Bakery and Coffeehouse is nestled in-between a nail salon and an alkaline water dispensary in a wood-worn strip mall — similar to a sea-faring schooner far beyond its regularly scheduled maintenance log. Gordy’s stands out from neighboring businesses with its fire-engine red tables and chairs and a neon “espresso” sign greeting visitors at the entrance. If this sleepy business

good fortune of meeting Roby Vigilucci, owner of Vigilucci Italian restaurants in North County (which also has excellent Italian cuisine). Simone worked at Vigilucci’s until venturing out with Giovanetti to boldly open 2051 amidst the ongoing pandemic with Roby’s encour-

agement. We were greeted at the host counter by Benedetta with Prosecco Millesimato, Bosco del Merlo, from Veneto, Italy. We started our overthe-top culinary experience with the Misto charcuterie board that was a meal itself. The board had Parma prosciutto, Gran Biscotto ham, mortadella, speck, and soppressata meats along with Parmigiano, pecorino, and caprino cheeses. Our waiter Chris and Simone also insisted on the Burrata Cheese plate with baked eggplant, tomato, basil, garlic, and balsamic infusion, as well as the Brodetto di Cozze & Vongole, a bowl of mussels and clams in fish broth with a touch of

tomato served with country bread. To accompany all these outstanding dishes, Chris suggested a bottle of the 2009 Musella Amarone from Veneto — the Amarone capital of the wine world. I love the making of Amarone with intentional drying of the fruit for several months before maceration to create an intense nose and flavor with sweet spice, cherry, plum and earth. The wine was especially great with our tastings of the Tortellini Alla Crema di Parmigiano (tortellini with meat stuffing in cream of Parmigiano sauce), Tortelloni Burro e Salvia (large tortellini filled with ricotta TURN TO TASTE OF WINE ON B14

plaza is the aging parent, Gordy’s is the brash, wild child that has grown up but won’t give an inch on its punk rock wardrobe. Inside, heavy rock music (at a reasonable decibel) pumps from the speakers. Mustard and purple walls are covered with framed concert posters of older bands — Ace Frehley, The Hives, Pixies, Pet Benetar and The Black Eyed Peas. The cafe is rock n’ roll but with reasonable prices on pastries and without the devil horns. I order a cup of black coffee. It’s a New Guinea organic from La Costa Coffee Roasting, which is a popular coffee wholesaler with cafes in North County, including a coffee shop on the edge of Carlsbad. The coffee at Gordy’s was batch brewed and delivered way too hot for me to drink but not too hot for me to dip a cookie in. I should have ordered The Plonk, but I’m still slipping out of the mental fog of the morning. The Plonk, invented by original owner Gordy Haskett, is a dense muffin filled with oats, raisins, brown sugar, banana, butter, flour, dates, walnuts, water, sugar, eggs, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and ginger. In addition, to drinks and Plonks, the bakery offers a wide variety of good-looking pastries for takeaway. In 2012, Gordy’s was named one of the top five bakeries in the county by readers of the San Diego Union-Tribune. Haskett and business partner have since sold the shop to new owners. From the looks of the website and menu, not much has changed. This is good for me because if I find myself in this corner of the world again, I’ll be able to try The Plonk or the Durfey or the B-Bar or… The Bean Journal is a new column by Ryan Woldt, host of the Roast!

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You face the possibility of raising your relationship to another level. However, your partner might demand that you make promises you’re not sure you’re ready for. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) As changes continue, expect things to get a little more hectic at your workplace. An unexpected travel opportunity could open new career prospects. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Confront the person who caused your hurt feelings and demand a full explanation for their actions. You’ll not only recover your self-esteem, but you’ll also gain the respect of others. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) That personal problem in the workplace is compounded by someone’s biased interference. Stand your ground, and you’ll soon find allies gathering around you. LEO (July 23 to August 22) You don’t accept disapproval easily. But instead of hiding out in your den to lick your wounded pride, turn the criticism into a valuable lesson for future use. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) That former friend you thought you’d cut out of your life is still affecting other relationships. Counter their lies with the truth.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Your usual conservative approach to family situations might not work at this time. Keep an open mind about developments, and you might be pleasantly surprised. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Plans might have to be put on hold because of a family member’s problems. Don’t hesitate to get involved. Your help could make all the difference. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Relationships in the home and in the workplace need your careful attention during this period. Be careful not to allow misunderstandings to create problems.

Beers in the northern Idaho wilds cheers! north county

ryan woldt

y wife and I haven’t traveled often since the onset of the coronavirus, so when we do, we go big. We’ve already traveled 4,200 miles, camping in Utah, Colorado, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana. This week’s column is coming to you from northern Idaho, where we are visiting family and taking advantage of the nearby hiking trails. Before we left North County San Diego, we stockpiled two things: Covid tests and beer. The tests were because we wanted to be sure we weren’t bringing anything with us or leaving anything behind. The beer (and whiskey) came along for two reasons. First, I’ve always learned that a visitor bearing gifts is often well-received. Second, and more importantly, drinking together* is a way of connecting and communing in the celebration of friendship, family, and love for each other. I just got a little misty. Bringing some Burgeon, Bagby or Battlemage along for the ride is our way of sharing a little bit of our home life with family and friends. It is our way of sharing our pride in the place we have chosen to call home. It is our way of repre-

from all around. Couple this with summer tourist/beach traffic from here to Sea World. Yeow. At this point, he thought he had heard every horror story/warning possible about the impending trip. Oh no. It’s then I chimed in with my own sad reminder about airport terminal work underway, leaving no nearby parking and a very, very slow-moving line of drive-by traffic. I had discovered this the hard way, when I went to pick up my son coming in

senting that even though we are very much a product of our Wisconsin birthplace, we are just as much now a representation of North County San Diego. It goes like this. We tumble out of the car dusty and dirty and often reeking of campfire smoke. Regardless, we’re greeted with open arms.** We hug and slap backs and comment on how big the kids have gotten and how good the yard, house, and car look, and then someone says, “Beer?” “Yep,” we reply, and the cooler comes out. There is some negotiating over

whose beer will get drunk first. Will it be ours? Will it be the local beer in the garage beer fridge? It is all for show. Eventually, they’ll both disappear into our bellies or get swapped into each other’s cooling apparatus. Our hosts are just as eager to share their local standouts with us as we are with them. Once the cans are cracked, the communing can begin in earnest. For fifteen minutes or five days, we’ll share our stories and hear theirs. We’ll drink more beers. We’ll talk and laugh and cry and laugh again.

from Boston. Somehow, I had missed the fairly major development that the parking lot was now gone and if you intend to actually meet your guest as they descend to baggage claim, you need to drive to a faraway parking lot and take a tram back to the terminal. That is doable if you have planned adequate time. I had not. Thank heaven for cellphones. Suddenly, we realized that the list of traffic-stoppers had reached the ridiculous level, and the speculation began. We figured that within minutes we would hear that Interstate 5 was complete-

ly closed due to a flipped semi, probably because of an earthquake, and that freak high tides had washed a whale across Coast Highway 101, as well. We figured in a hurricane, just for good measure. We began to wonder how hard it would be to “borrow” a helicopter and pilot from Camp Pendleton, because the terminal renovations won’t be finished anytime soon. After all this, I dragged my family out hours early to drop off my now-departing son. It was Sunday morning, but I still expected the worst. Me making him load up early and him not wanting

Finally, we’ll reach a moment of silence.We’ll sit together — on a porch, in a garage, or at a picnic table — and I’ll be reminded of some advice Kurt Vonnegut relayed from his uncle Alex over a lemonade. “When things are going sweetly and peacefully, please pause a moment, and then say out loud, ‘If this isn’t nice, what is,’” Vonnegut writes. Amen, Kurt. Amen. The cooler was full when we left — Eppig, Rouleur — and weeks later, it’s still full. We’ll be hitting the road again soon, headed for California with craft beers from the Post Falls Brewery here in Idaho, from Karben4 Brewing in Madison, WI, and from Bierstadt in Denver, Colo. When we’re home again, sitting on the back porch, watching the sunset over Carlsbad Village, we’ll tip one back and remember our traveling communion. We’ll laugh. We’ll cry. We’ll drink and laugh again. *For us, it is beer, but it could just as easily be spirits, hard seltzer, wine, coffee, or lemonade. It isn’t the specifics but the act of drinking and sharing that matters. **Just another normal day of swabbing our own nostrils and performing a Covid viral test while traveling 70 miles per hour down the interstate.

Without fail, we had light traffic all the way, no beach crush, no Comic-Con commuters, only a handful of Arizona license plates, and even the drive through the airport was manageable. We arrived almost two hours before his flight was scheduled to leave. He gave me the look mothers are given when they are wrong. I stopped just short of telling him all my “almost missed a flight” stories … again. There is no justice. Jean Gillette is a freelance writer in the market for a crystal ball and a cheap helicopter.

TASTE OF WINE CONTINUED FROM B10

Ercolano’s West End Bar & Kitchen in Del Mar. Despite the similar wines, the pairings were different. Also, with John Parker, account manager at Republic National Distributing Company, narrating the evening, guests are always treated to an in-depth review of the winery and wines. Chef Noe had an allstar lineup starting with his “Chef Bites” of risotto-stuffed mushrooms, bacon-wrapped dates, and tuna tartare on a crispy wonton. For the second course, Noe served bacon-wrapped jumbo shrimp with an avocado mousse. The first two courses were served with sauvignon blanc and chardonnay. Next up was short rib ravioli with a creamed porcini mushroom sauce. The 2018 merlot helped strip the tongue, ensuring each delicious bite was fresh. The main course was a New Zealand rack of lamb with garlic mashed potatoes topped with a rich demi-glace reduction paired with a 2018 cabernet sauvignon. Dinner concluded with a cheese plate array with acacia honey and toasted almonds. The 2018 petite sirah’s jammy flavor perfectly complemented the cheese plate. More details at stagsleap.com.

and cream of spinach, in a butter and sage sauce), and traditional meat lasagna. All of these are with pasta made onsite. Simone was also kind enough to have us try a new dish, Tortelloni di Mara. While not listed on the menu, the dish is available upon request. Tortelloni di Mara was potentially my favorite dish, although it was splitting hairs. The squid ink tortelloni stuffed with sea bass and potato with a touch of lemon and topped with clams was mesmerizing. As hard as this was to believe, Frank and I made room for dolce — homemade Tiramisu! Lighter-than-air mascarpone topped espresso-soaked chocolate lady fingers garnished with cocoa powder.
