WISDOM PROPERTIES, a jewel box among big box real estate companies

F

ive years ago folks asked her why Wisdom? Why now? What sets Wisdom Properties apart from the others? It all started in 1988, when Loraine, along with her real estate visionary husband of 36 years, Bob Dyson, opened Dyson & Dyson Real Estate, and built it from a one small office in Del Mar to a regional company which represented clients from over thirty offices throughout the Southwest including San Diego County, Newport Beach, Palm Desert and Las Vegas. After 40 years of providing broker support to thousands of agents, Loraine’s continued love of local residential real estate and her desire to serve the local agent and client community one-on-one, led her full circle to establish, once again, an independent boutique real estate brokerage firm, Wisdom Properties, built on the legacy & reputation of Dyson & Dyson. “I loved our previous company and the culture we had, but now I want to enjoy providing a different real estate model for our agents and clients. An independent boutique office where I can support the agents and WISDOM clients on an intimate level gives me great joy, knowing I am making a difference in many people’s lives.” said Loraine. Now entering their 5th year, it’s a model that is home for top producing agents looking to serve their clients in a warm and caring environment. “Also, it’s so fun that many of our clients drive by our “Wisdom Corner” office all the time. We’re in a unique neighborhood location on Lomas Santa Fe in a stand of heritage Torrey Pines between the beach and Rancho Santa Fe. They waive and honk, some say they pray for

us and some just smile as they go by. “ Wisdom Properties is different because of their philosophy of co-creating a positive result with their clients.

Vista again seeks grant for Emerald Drive

San Marcos officials tout positive changes

By Jacqueline Covey

SAN MARCOS — Expanding the San Marcos downtown core, a return to in-person schooling and new industries were among the completed and future developments highlighted by the city government and school district leaders during the 2022 San Marcos State of the Community. The event drew dozens of residents and local officials to the San Marcos Community Center, where they heard an overview of the positive changes in the city and the San Marcos Unified School District over the past two years as well as ongoing projects. Following a resource fair with booths set up by local and city-level organizations, Mayor Rebecca Jones and San Marcos Unified School District Superintendent Andy Johnsen provided remarks, both praising the community for their resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic and coming out of it together. “It’s apparent that San Marcos has emerged stronger than ever,” Jones said. “I'm proud of our residents, our businesses and our community advocates who have leaned in to help our city.” Jones outlined the growth of the new downtown core, referred to as North City, developed in partnership with Cal State San Marcos and Sea Breeze Properties, which earned recognition from the California Association for Local Economic Development in 2020. The reimagined downtown within the city’s University District Specific Plan area has sought to create an urban living atmosphere, with several new eateries and breweries, student housing and a climbing gym. The area has become a large cycling hub, serving as the base for the California Belgian Waffle Ride in late April, and hosts a farmers market each week. In the coming weeks and months, the San Mar-

VISTA — The Emerald Drive corridor is getting its third try at a multimillion-dollar grant to slow cut-through traffic and protect pedestrians and bicyclists. A workshop was held in the Vista council chambers on May 25 ahead of a June 15 application deadline for an Active Transportation Program grant administered through the California Transportation Commission (CTC) to enhance traffic flow on Emerald Drive. If granted, the construction project would add six roundabouts, bike lanes and expanded curbs on the Vista side of Emerald Drive between Date Street and Olive Avenue. The project would cost an estimated $6 million. The city of Vista is asking the state transportation commission for about $4.8 million — with the city's matching $1.2 million tacked on — to make the total $6 million to rehabilitate the street. With both Oceanside and Vista residents in attendance, the tone was generally positive toward the roadway changes presented at the community workshop. The 20 attendees were hopeful the plan will slow traffic on a road where, they say, drivers are consistently speeding. Emerald Drive is the main vein for neighborhood homes in both Vista and Oceanside. The roadway is also a route for Tri-City Christian School, Bella Mente Montessori Academy, both located on Emerald Drive, and nearby Grapevine and Casita elementary schools. Currently, the shared space for pedestrians, drivers and bikers is tight on the Vista side. There is a point at Jonathan Street that forces pedestrians close to traffic due to a protuberance in the road. There are places where there is no sidewalk at all. “It doesn’t feel completely safe to walk on the Vista side right now,” said Kurt Haider, an Oceanside resident. “For some people, it’s scary.” Haider is confident that the road will keep up with development, as both cities continue to grow. “I like it,” he said. “I hope that the increase in bike lanes will help decrease the car traffic. (The proposed plan) is better than it is now.” In the last five years, there have been 61 accidents in the proposed project area on Emerald Drive — one of them fatal. That number “is really a lot for a segment of TURN TO EMERALD DRIVE ON A7

El Norte tenants face lawsuit, eviction and even homelessness By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — Tenants facing eviction from a West El Norte Parkway property are appealing a lawsuit filed by the City of Escondido accusing them of turning the site into a public nuisance. The lawsuit was filed in April after the city issued several code violation citations regarding large amounts of “trash, junk, debris, inoperable vehicles” as well as tenants living in RVs connected to public utilities at 2130 W. El Norte Pkwy. Several people who live on the property, some for more than a year while others only a few months, dispute the claims levied against them in the complaint. Steve Wood said much of the “junk” on the property is recycled material that he uses to create teardrop camper trailers and rebuild larger trailer coaches. Wood, an Escondido native, has lived there for about three years. “We’re not squatters,” he said. While some neighbors have complained about the property, others have come to know some of its residents, like Wood. He works on one of the neighbor’s cars occasionally and another neighbor has provided him lumber to craft his trailers. According to the city’s lawsuit, city code prohibits residents from using, allowing, maintaining or depositing construction materials such as lumber, wood, scrap metal, concrete and asphalt on their properties. While the lawsuit alleges the residents haven’t corrected their violations, the residents say that they have been trying to get rid of everything for some time now. The lawsuit also notes that code enforcement witnessed a “noticeable amount” of the property’s debris had been removed at one point, but some still remained. The residents recently held a yard sale as a fundraiser to rent a dumpster,

but they were put on a long waitlist and decided the money would be better used elsewhere. A hearing was scheduled for June 10, but the residents could be out of a home by then. In early May, a county judge ruled in favor of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in an unlawful detainer case, which gave the agency permission to evict the residents from the property. HUD has owned the property since it fell into foreclosure in September. The property’s previous owner, Robert E. Donelson, died in 2019, and his stepdaughter, Terry Bearer, still lives in the house. Richard Zindler, another resident on the property, said Bearer was never given an opportunity to try to buy the property. The residents were working together to save enough money to buy it. More recently, the water was turned off at the property as well. Several of the residents are elderly and disabled and require water for their daily health routines. Though they pooled together enough money to pay the bill, the Vista Irrigation District won’t turn it back on without a deed to the property or HUD’s permission to turn it back on. The city has ordered the residents to vacate the premises if they cannot

turn the water back on by June 10. Juliana Musheyev, an organizer in a local chapter of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, has been trying to get in contact with HUD for the residents. Musheyev and another organizer, Kwame X., have been bringing water for the residents to use a few times a week since the water was shut off last month. They also set up a fundraiser to help raise money for the residents as they face eviction. The organizers heard TURN TO EVICTION ON A16

cos Planning Commission and City Council will consider approving further changes to North City, including increasing the maximum building height in the area and approving plans for a 484-unit apartment building with commercial uses. “It’s rare to have the opportunity to create a new downtown,” Jones said. “The North City area … is the eclectic crown jewel of San Marcos.” The San Marcos Creek Project, the city’s largest capital improvement project to date, which seeks to reduce flooding, improve traffic and revitalize the creek, recently reached a new milestone with the opening of the Bent Avenue Bridge, according to Jones. Lane broadening is also underway on the Via Vera Cruz Bridge and Via Vera Cruz itself as part of its project, with new bike lanes planned for Via Vera Cruz. “We are also building a new neighborhood park, and a 1.2-mile nature trail with a scenic creek overlook. The entire creek project is expected to be completed in 2023,” Jones said. “We know when the creek project is done, it will definitely be worth the wait.” The mayor also highlighted recent and forthcoming developments in the health care sphere. The opening of Scripps Coastal Medical Center along Campus Way in June 2021 brought additional primary care and radiology and laboratory services to North County, and the new Kaiser Permanente Hospital is expected to open in the summer of 2023. “San Marcos is home to more than 4,000 businesses and more than 46,000 jobs. Five hundred more [jobs] are coming with Kaiser Permanente,” Jones said. New developments are also underway in the San Marcos Unified School District, in the form of the new 44-classroom Richland ElTURN TO COMMUNITY ON A22

Possible ways to solve Escondido’s budget deficit

T

By Douglas W. Schultz

he Escondido City Council is considering putting a revenue measure or sales tax increase on the ballot this November. This information is an impartial, non-partisan presentation of the facts as they are today. It is intended to lay out these facts on what could be proposed, their impacts and lay out a few ideas I have spoken to staff and council about as possible solutions. This is an attempt to honor my campaign promise of full transparency. First, a brief background. The reason we have a massive deficit in Escondido is due to the city’s obligations to CalPERS due to the discount rate being lowered. The discount rate is the assumed rate of return CalPERS will earn on their investment portfolio on an annual basis. Back in the 1990s, CalPERS modeled what the rate of return would be using the portfolio returns at the time. While hindsight is always 20/20, it’s clear these figures were over-estimated. With the reality of what we see in the world today, CalPERS lowered this assumed rate of return down to 6.8% per year from 7.5% per year, thereby creating this debt obligation. Our deficit comes from being forced to pay the CalPERS pension obligations because the estimations first used in the ’90s were too high (Visit article online to view graphic representation from city finance department). I am a “numbers guy.” When I look at issues, regardless of politics, and see where we can generate revenue, I feel it is one of my responsibilities as your City Treasurer, to present possible solutions to a problem when I see a problem exists. I have heard various solutions on the CalPERS

issue, but upon closer examination, I feel only two of these possible solutions could come close to being able to make up a deficit this large. One possible solution that has been discussed is a sales tax increase or expanding cannabis sales, which is a politically charged topic. Roughly two or three years ago, I approached city staff and the mayor about this issue. While staff was doing their own research. I also put together a different model for cannabis sales. At that time, I proposed doing a trial run of allowing cannabis sales within Escondido using four cannabis companies. I was able to find four potential candidates that would each pay a flat fee of $500,000 for a one-year period of time. After year one, it was estimated that these operations could have generated a net revenue for the city of approximately $1.3 million to $1.5 million and over time, possibly ramp up to $4 million-$6 million/year in revenue. At the time, no one wanted to consider this. While I still believe cannabis could be a viable solution from a numbers perspective. The council considers cannabis sales a moot point in solving the deficit. Which leads us to the next question, what other possible solutions exist? I have heard and looked at other possibilities from: • annexing all available property parcels within the city limits but are currently outside the city property rolls (which could possibly bring in an additional $500,000/year, with a possible cost upwards of $3 million dollars to accomplish) • issuance of various types of obligation bonds. This is a complicated process and only helps the issue but does not solve it. In examining these options, one can see why the

City Council is debating a revenue measure that would increase the sales tax anywhere from 7.75% to 8.25% to 8.75%. What does a “yes” vote on a possible measure mean? It would mean Escondido would receive the additional increase of sales tax annually to be used to meet obligations, assist in operations of the city, and allow the city to make some improvements in municipal infrastructure projects. Here’s how it would directly affect you; for every $100 you might spend within Escondido limits an additional $1 would be added that would go to the City. (This example is purely illustrative.) What does a “no” vote on a possible measure mean? The City of Escondido is legally obligated to pay CalPERS pension obligations. If a possible sales tax measure does not pass, the City Council could be forced to make drastic cuts to police, fire, and other services to meet these obligations over the coming years. For a possible sales tax measure to even be considered, I believe some critical components would need to be a part of the measure. The possible measure would need to be: • endorsed and examined by the San Diego Taxpayer’s Association • endorsed by multiple bi-partisan groups and organizations • have a sunset clause • contain provisions as to how the funds are to be used • I believe at minimum, 25% of all funds generated would need to be placed in the reserve account. I hope this has shed some light on what our City Council is currently deliberating and the challenges we face as a city. Douglas W. Shultz is the treasure for the City of Escondido.

here is a worrisome trend emerging in our education system. Steps are being taken to downgrade academic standards and de-emphasize advanced classes, placing a lower priority on student achievement than on group-based “equity.” This trend to emphasize equity at the expense of academics is not an isolated problem and appears to be gathering steam. In Washington state, the legislature weakened the official definition of “Basic Education” by shifting away from core studies to “producing global citizens in a global society with an appreciation for diverse cultures.” In 2021, SB 5044 was passed as “an act relating to equity, cultural competency, and dismantling institutional racism in the public school system.” In response to these legislative mandates the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction is expected to announce a move towards new, lower education standards. Last year, the Oregon State Legislature enacted SB 744, effectively eliminating performance standards in core studies for high school students. Students may no longer be “required to show proficiency in Essential Learning Skills [Reading, Writing, Math] as a condition of receiving a high school diploma.” In San Francisco, Lowell High switched to lottery-based admissions after operating for decades on a merit-based system. As a result, we are already seeing faltering educational outcomes — the first class so admitted saw a three-fold increase in the number of students receiving at least one D or F grade, from 7.9% in the prior year to 24.4%. In San Diego, the principal at Patrick Henry High quietly reduced honors classes. She explained doing so to avoid “stratifying” classes, to eliminate the stigma of non-advanced courses, and to address racial inequities. The backlash among both parents and students over the decision was sharp enough to cause the principal to partially reverse course. Recently, the California Department of Education has been working on a new mathematics framework for K-12, expected to be finalized in July. This new framework focuses on the “imperative for K–12 mathematics instruction to foster more equitable outcomes in mathematics and science.” This relaxation of state standards will un-

doubtedly lead to a decline in academic achievement. According to University of Wisconsin’s Scott J. Peters, a widely published Professor in the Department of Educational Foundations, school leaders across the country are reducing opportunities for high-achieving students, because doing so is expected to reduce the gap between them and low-performing students. Closing this gap is supposed to advance “equity,” but it is likely to reduce future opportunities, especially for gifted students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Stanford University Professor Brian Conrad, Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Mathematics Department, has expressed alarm over the new California Mathematics Framework. Solid math skills are needed for quantitative and STEM degrees such as economics, data science and computer science, which the new framework does not provide. “Reducing access to advanced mathematics and elevating trendy but shallow courses over foundational skills would cause lasting damage to STEM education in the country and exacerbate inequality by diminishing access to the skills needed for social mobility,” according to Conrad. The U.S. faces increasing global competition, as other countries are educating their children with stronger critical thinking skills and more rigorous STEM education. Lowering standards will reduce the number of opportunities available to all of our students — we will fail to nurture the leaders of our next generation, and will make it more difficult for the rest to integrate productively into the global economy. There is nothing equitable or desirable about such a perverse outcome. The better approach is to provide appropriate support to each student, so that all are afforded the opportunity to optimize his or her individual potential, regardless of demographics or class rank. Narrowing the achievement gap by lowering standards is not the way to go. Parents and others concerned about the education of our rising generation must be warned: trendy political theories are already degrading the educational experience of our children. It’s time to stop this drift into mediocrity. Phan Anderson is a parent in the San Dieguito Union High School District.

Del Mar councilwoman accused of violating Brown Act By Laura Place

DEL MAR — Amid discussions of a controversial bluff stabilization project in Del Mar this week, Councilwoman Terry Gaasterland was accused of violating the Brown Act after reportedly privately communicating about the project with other council members outside of a public meeting. The accusations arose during the Del Mar City Council’s June 6 meeting, when members received a presentation regarding the San Diego Association of Governments’ design modifications to the planned Del Mar Bluffs Stabilization Project. The council was asked to provide feedback to be presented to the California Coastal Commission during its June 8 discussion of the project. Prior to the presentation, Councilman Dave Druker stated that an elected official, later identified as Gaasterland, had violated the law by communicating separately about the agenda item with three of the five council members including himself, Councilwoman Tracy Martinez and Mayor Dwight Worden outside of a public meeting, and called on the person to recuse themselves. The Brown Act prohibits a majority of any legislative body from discussing subjects under their purview outside of a public meeting, including using

“a series of communications of any kind, directly or through intermediaries” to discuss these matters outside of a public meeting. “It has come to my attention that one of my colleagues communicated with three other council members about this item, and I do not find that to be an acceptable type of behavior,” said Druker, who ultimately recused himself in protest after Gaasterland refused to do so herself. Gaasterland expressed her remorse at giving any indication of violating public trust, but added that

she believed two of the conversations were related to separate subcommittee business rather than the agenda item about the bluff project. “I can understand the perception, and I’m one where if there is the perception of bias, [I try] to explain very carefully why there is no bias,” Gaasterland said. “Transparency is important to me.” Gaasterland said she and Martinez communicated about the bluffs stabilization project on June 1 in their capacity as co-members of the Sea Level Rise Advisory Committee, when

the two sent out a notice to residents about the upcoming Coastal Commission discussion. She also claimed that a May 27 phone call with Druker was related to her and Druker’s purview as liaisons for a city subcommittee, although she did not clarify which one. Gaasterland and Druker both serve as liaisons for the subcommittee on safe rail crossing and bluff stabilization, among others. Druker, however, claimed his discussions with Gaasterland were directly related to the City Council’s planned agenda

item, stating that they discussed the bluff stabilization project “in full” over the phone after clarifying with her that she had not spoken with other council members about the topic already. Gaasterland characterized the conversation differently. “I was uncomfortable with the conversation, because last time he called me about an item that was upcoming I had to recuse [myself.] So, I got off the call, and I do not see that conversation with Councilmember Druker as part of this at all,” she said. Also on June 1, Gaasterland responded to an email from Worden which contained the commission’s analysis of the bluff stabilization project, expressing her opinion that there should be safe railroad crossings on 11th and 7th streets in Del Mar. Following Druker’s complaints, Gaasterland admitted during the meeting that she should not have sent that communication to Worden. However, she added that the timeline for the council to discuss the bluff stabilization project was very short, which presented a challenge. “I understand that I should not have sent that,” she told fellow council members on Monday. “I had no intent to break the Brown Act at all.” Worden clarified that

I did not talk to three or more council members, and I did not share an email with three or more council members. What Terry did, Terry will have to answer for and explain, and she did, to some extent.” Worden added that he did not respond to Gaasterland’s emailed response expressing her opinion about safe crossings. Looking ahead, Worden said he and Druker have requested for city staff to schedule an overview of the council’s responsibilities under the Brown Act for a future meeting, stating that it is important to address any confusions “sooner rather than later.” “The Brown Act is super important — it’s California’s sunshine law.

County finds pesticide violations in Arrowood  Report: No link between pet deaths, pesticides By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE – A county report found several pesticide violations against Brightview Landscape in its management of services in the Arrowood Village community, but none of the violations were found to cause adverse impacts to animals and residents in the neighborhood. The report, issued by the county Department of Agriculture, Weights and Measures, is the result of a investigation into more than a year’s worth of residents’ claims that family pets were falling ill and dying due to the spraying of pesticides in Arrowood. According to multiple residents, more than 30 pets, mostly dogs, fell sick during that time span and more than half of those later died. “There was no evidence of pesticides being used negligently, excessively or not according to the registered label,” the report states. “I found no evidence that the use of legal registered pesticides by the two licensed companies contributed to any illnesses that the dogs in this neighborhood experienced. “Brightview did have several violations noted, but none of these violations contributed adversely to the safety of the pesticides applied at Arrowood. No adverse health, property or environmental effect was determined due to these violations.” The Coast News previously published an article detailing Arrowood residents’ experiences with their pets. At the time, a spokesperson from the county said the department had not found any correlation between dogs’ illnesses and pesticides sprayed in the neighborhood. But many residents weren’t satisfied with the county's initial investigate findings due to the fact that something in the area appeared to be harming

their pets. Arrowood resident Pete Gajria’s beloved dog, Maggie, a 16-year-old duck-tolling retriever, was old but healthy. Despite her age, she was still relatively active before suddenly falling ill last spring while playing in one of the neighborhood’s common areas. Over the next several months, Maggie’s health deteriorated until she eventually died in December 2021. Some of the reports of dogs falling ill appeared to be similar to symptoms of both pesticide and rodenticide poisoning. Only one of the allegedly affected dogs, Dommie, owned by residents Joey and Sheana Trecartin, was confirmed to have died from rodent poisoning according to veterinary records. Joey Trecartin said the family never kept rat poison or anything like it in the household. Diane Woelke, an Arrowood resident who didn’t have any pets but was still concerned, filed a complaint regarding pesticide misuse to the California Environmental Public Agency. The case was then referred to San Diego County’s Land Use and Environment Group’s Department of Agricultural Weights and Measures which operates the county’s Pesticide Regulation Program (PRP). Nancy Wickus, a senior inspector with the county agriculture department, was assigned to investigate the case in June 2021. The Wickus report includes correspondences from Avalon Management Group, Brightview and Rodent Pest Technologies, a licensed pest control business that administers rodenticide in Arrowood. According to the county's investigation, Rodent Pest Technologies, uses Ditrac rodent bait administered through bait stations to ensure the poison stays in place.

Businesses adapt to global supply issues By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Local businesses, such as Carlsbad-based MRIAudio and SafeSleeve, have reported clawing their way through months of international supply-chain issues and delays due to gridlock at U.S. ports, exploding shipping costs, tariffs and China’s crippled manufacturing industry. MRIAudio uses fiber-optics to provide noise-canceling technology, audio (music, podcasts and streaming radio) and wireless communications between patients and laboratory technicians during an MRI scan. SafeSleeve provides radiation-protected cases for cellphone, tablets and laptops. However, MRIAudio’s CEO Spencer Howe, COO John Hornbrook and CFO Nichole Macedo, said the past 12 to 18 months has been a challenge. Delays and cost increases have led the company to find alternative solutions to build and ship its products after scrambling to find suppliers and distributors to manufacture their components. “A lot of our parts were coming from Asia as of last year,” Howe said. “I think everyone started panicking so everyone doubled-down on the inventory they were buying, so the machine shops got overrun.” Cary Subel, co-founder of SafeSleeve, said his company’s products and materials are controlled by the Asian market, thus the company is dependent on sound finances, cash flow and balancing inventory. Another challenge for SafeSleeve is the release of new products every year, which forces the company to redesign products for newer versions of smartphones. And since the market is dominated by Asia, moving to domestic suppliers

or manufactures increases the retail price at least three to four times, which Subel said is an unsustainable business model. For example, an iPhone 13 case currently runs $59.95, which is a slight increase over the past two years, Subel noted. “I would say ‘uncertainty’ is the key word,” Subel said. “Everything is changing on a dime. We’ve made an effort to mitigate by buying a lot of buffer with our orders. The concern with that is we like to be lean with our inventory because we are paying warehouse fees.” Shipping costs have now increased at least three times greater than the cost of the product itself and air freight is five to six times higher. Inflation and rising oil prices have also put businesses on edge and led to higher costs. Also, communicating with vendors in Asia is also a challenge, where it can take three to four days to fix a problem, according to MRIAudio representatives.

Compounding problems is the Chinese New Year, where the country shuts down for three weeks in February. But after the new year, major Chinese cities and ports shut down due to COVID-19 outbreaks, thus causing further delays. In January, Hornbrook scoured the internet and learned the country was besieged by power outages. Chinese factories were only open two or three days per week instead of the typical seven days due to the changes. Howe and Hornbrook said some products that took 30 days to receive now can take between six to nine months, which is why the pivot to a local supplier was critical to the company’s survival. And the company has been able to offset additional costs. In response, Hornbrook hired a San Diego-based machinist to help with manufacturing a key component of their devices to streamline the company’s supply chain. “It was well worth the six to eight weeks that we

spent,” Hornbrook said. “We have a standing order that I pick up the first of each month. To manage the transportation ourselves is probably saving $15,000 to $30,000 per shipment.” Macedo said the company also found another unlikely source to help mitigate its supply issues: Best Buy. The big-box company has been able to secure several of MRIAudio’s components, such as iPads. The partnership has eliminated shipping costs, Hornbrook said, thus making the financials “a wash” compared to a company fully committed to Asian supply chains. About 35% to 40% of the company has moved to domestic sources, which will likely remain its primary sources, with China and Asia as backups. The company’s ongoing strategy is to build up its inventory to protect against future delays. And the move paid off. MRIAudio recently landed a surprise order of 100 systems from its biggest client, GE Healthcare, which is 10% of the company’s annual total. But U.S. cargo ships still wait on horizon off the Southern California coastline in seemingly perpetual gridlock near the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports. And when the ships finally reach the port, shipments often take weeks to be delivered. Further exacerbating matters, an impending dockworkers union contract dispute may further disrupt the supply chain. According to media reports, 25,000 dockworkers at 29 ports have rejected an initial contract and are continuing to negotiate. “The last time that happened there was a major shutdown,” Subel said. “I’m not taking anything for granted. I’m cautiously optimistic.”

Escondido seeks road safety grants By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — A new local roadway safety plan may help the city receive funding to make driving safer in Escondido. Staff presented its new local roadway safety plan (LRSP) on May 25 to the Escondido City Council. The plan identifies “hot spots” for crashes throughout the city and ranks locations based on crash severity costs, then suggests countermeasures that could be added to improve traffic safety and prevent crashes from occurring in those areas. Caltrans requires municipalities to develop LRSPs to provide grant funding for its Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). Grant applications are due in September for the next grant cycle. Staff noted Escondido has a history of successfully acquiring highway safety funding, including $1 million in city-matched funds to improve citywide traffic signal communications. Construction for that project is expected to begin next year. Escondido plans to submit three grant applications this year for roadway safety projects that include several improvements to numerous intersections throughout the city. One of the projects will improve signal visibility for motorists, install protect-

ed left-turn phasing and a leading pedestrian interval that will allow pedestrians to start walking before any traffic lights turn green for four intersections: Washington Avenue and Quince Street, Mission Avenue and Fig Street, Centre City Parkway and Ninth Avenue, and Washington Avenue and Rose Street. This project would cost about $1.2 million. The intersection at Washington Avenue and Rose Street has been at the forefront of residents’ minds ever since a woman was killed and her child severely injured when two cars collided and hit them in October 2021. According to city police records, the Washington and Rose intersection had more crashes (41) than any other intersection in the city between 2016 and 2020, though no fatal accidents occurred during that time. The intersection was ranked 10th in the city for crash severity costs at $3.9 million. Washington and Rose construction may not begin until late next year, according to staff. “We’re already getting started on the engineering,” said Associate Engineer Craig Williams. “To be able to get the engineering work done and have the project ready to go, assuming we get the funds, takes at least six to eight months

out of process and allows construction a lot earlier.” Traffic Engineer Edd Alberto noted that City Council prioritized Washington and Rose as the next traffic signal project and is included in the city’s draft Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget as well. Another project the city hopes to address with grant funding would improve signal visibility for motorists and install pedestrian countdown heads as well as leading pedestrian intervals for the intersections of Centre City and El Norte Parkway; Midway Drive and Valley Parkway; Centre City and Valley Parkway; Centre City and Felicita Avenue; Valley Parkway and Quince Street; Mission Avenue and Ash Street; El Norte Parkway and Broadway; Valley Parkway and Ninth Avenue; Mission Avenue and Quince Street; Grand Avenue and Juniper Street; Centre City Parkway and Country Club Lane, and Midway Drive and Grand Avenue. This project is estimated to cost roughly $573,000. The Centre City and El Norte Parkway intersection was ranked as the top intersection in terms of crash severity costs with nearly $8.8 million in crashes between 2016 and 2020. The third project would improve signal visibility, install protected left-turn phasing and install pedes-

trian crossings at the intersections of Quince and Ninth, Valley and Fig, Mission and Metcalf Street, Centre City and Iris Lane, Mission and Rock Springs Road, and Escondido Boulevard and Grand Avenue. This project’s cost is estimated at nearly $2 million. Williams said those three projects have a good chance of receiving HSIP funding; for two other potential traffic projects, meanwhile, the city may need to pursue funding elsewhere. One of those projects would include improving signal visibility, leading pedestrian intervals and pedestrian crossings at El Norte Parkway and Ash Street and Morning View Drive. Another would install a traffic signal at the intersection of Centre City, Escondido Boulevard and Brotherton Road. Overall, the council was pleased with staff’s presentation on the LSRP. “We all have our own areas of concern, and you guys hit on all of them,” said Councilmember Mike Morasco. Councilmember Joe Garcia noted that he would like staff to look into improving the crosswalk in front of the senior center on Broadway. Although the crosswalk has lights that show when someone is crossing, seniors are often “dodging cars” there.

to protect against gun violence. The group began with just four people, including resident Jesse Bry, following the 2018 Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Fla. “The four of us were doing this for years. The day after Uvalde, we were like, ‘people are gonna want to do something,’ so we gave them somewhere to land,” Bry said. “A massive shooting brings people out, but the problem is they don’t sustain it. We need people to sustain the movement beyond today.” Congressman Mike Levin (CA-49), who spoke to the crowd about the need for increased common sense gun legislation alongside Encinitas Mayor Catherine Blakespeare, noted that the U.S. House of Representatives has made progress on important legislation such as the 2021 Bipartisan Background Checks Act. However, he said the upcoming election will be important toward ensuring ongoing gun control reform on the national level. “We still have those senators who are unwilling, unable to see reality — the reality that we have a unique crisis in this country that we can only address proactively, like we have done in the state of California,” he said. Residents who have served in the armed forces also encouraged fellow veterans and military families to join in the fight for common sense gun pol-

icies, particularly safe storage, since people who are opposed to gun restrictions may be willing to listen to them. “We have a very legitimate and credible voice that we are not using. If you are a veteran, if you’re a military family member, please start speaking out about the requirements of responsible gun ownership,” said Army veteran Karin Brennan. Joseph Rocha, a candidate running for the 40th State Senate District seat and attendee at Saturday’s event, described the need for more people to understand the importance of safety, training and accountability when it comes to firearms, speaking from his own military experience. “This issue is important to me because of the tremendous loss of life we’ve seen, and particularly the loss of young children's lives. We have the responsibility as a country to prevent this from happening,” Rocha said. “I made the decision to join the military and that was to defend constitutional rights, but there is no constitutional right to the mass murder of children.” The United States has seen over 230 mass shootings so far this year, according to The Washington Post, making the number of people who have experienced gun violence grow every day. Blaylock is one of those people. “Make it a little bit harder to get guns, so that people who aren’t using them for the right purposes can't,” Blaylock said.

Lawsuit against Rodriguez heads to trial By Stephen Wyer

OCEANSIDE — A lawsuit against Oceanside City Councilman Chris Rodriguez will go to a jury trial in October after the 49th Congressional District candidate was accused of failing to repay nearly half a million in loans to a former business partner. Mary Harper, a San Diego real estate investor, originally filed the lawsuit in 2019, alleging that Rodriguez owes her and her family almost $500,000 that they loaned him to work on properties in Vista, Temecula and El Cajon. Harper claims that instead of repaying the loans, Rodriguez sold the properties and used some of the money to improve his personal residence on Puerta de Lomas in the Morro Hills area at the border of Oceanside and Fallbrook. The case will go to trial on Oct. 7 in San Diego County. Brian Maryott, one of Rodriguez’s opponents in the Republican primary, seized on the news of the lawsuit, arguing the nature

and credibility of the accusations against Rodriguez should be a disqualifying factor for his candidacy. “These unnerving allegationsare far too common in how he conducts his business, and it’s the height of arrogance for Rodriguez to think he could be on trial in October during the home stretch of a general election,” Maryott said in a statement. “Rodriguez needs to do the right thing: repay the people he owes money to and apologize.” But news of the lawsuit is unlikely to have much of an impact on Rodriguez’s primary chances. As of Wednesday, June 8, statewide election results had Rodriguez in fourth place in the June primary election, trailing Democratic incumbent Rep. Mike Levin, Maryott and Orange County Supervisor Lisa Bartlett, meaning he will more than likely not advance to the general election in November. Rodriguez wholly denies the claims made in the lawsuit and suggested that Maryott is trying to utilize the allegations against him to score political points. “One hundred percent of the allegations are false, this lawsuit is frivolous,” Rodriguez said. “Establishment candidate Brian Maryott is throwing out last-minute desperate attacks. Why? Because he’s losing. Polls show us leading. What does Maryott do? He panics. Yes, I’ve been named in lawsuits before, most people in business have. There’s not an elderly woman owed $500,000, this type of non-

sense is right out of the Democrat playbook. I will not stoop to Maryott’s level.” Carla DiMare, a civil trial attorney in San Diego, said that she was surprised that Rodriguez had taken the case to trial instead of settling the lawsuit in mediation. “I’m surprised that Rodriguez didn’t settle it in me-

diation,” DiMare said. “If it were you or I and somebody made a cause of action like this, even if it’s not true, just considering that he’s running and all the things that go along with running and wanting to help community. “You have to question even if he didn’t do this, why not settle? He could probably settle for much less than the $500,000 in question, so yea I’m kind of surprised by the approach he’s taken to the case.” Thad Kousser, a political scientist at UCSD, said that the accusations against Rodriguez were likely to be damaging to his political fortunes moving forward, even if he wins the primary. “Legal uncertainty never helps a candidate, especially one who is still making a first impression on voters,”

Kousser said. “If you’re a long time incumbent, people feel like they know you and already either trust you or don’t, having the cloud of a lawsuit probably doesn’t swing minds by itself but as one of the first two or three bits of information that voters learn about you, it may have a high impact. The questions that it raises are

never helpful for a candidate trying to establishing themselves with voters.” Kousser characterized Maryott’s move to spread information about the accusations against Rodriguez as nothing less than “Politics 101.” “I mean it’s simple campaign strategy on Maryott’s part to bring this up — you find the most damaging information that’s truthful about your opponent, and you put that right in front of voters,” he said. In 2020, a similar lawsuit was filed against Rodriguez by a former real estate partner, John Hetzler who claimed that the city councilman had failed to pay back $100,000 in loans at the agreed upon date. Hetzler eventually withdrew the suit after Rodriguez apparently paid back the money owed in question. Rodriguez denied any wrongdoing in the affair. Maryott has faced his own share of controversy leading up to the primary. In March, Bartlett filed a ballot designation complaint with the state against Maryott, accusing the former San Juan Capistrano mayor of misleading voters about his professional employment status. Maryott later changed his ballot designation title after discussions with the Secretary of State’s Office, but wholly denied having made any false statements about his ballot status.

Martinez, Hemmerling advance in Sheriff’s race By City News Service

REGION — County Undersheriff Kelly Martinez and former city prosecutor John Hemmerling are headed for a November runoff after emerging as the top two vote-getters in the race for sheriff. Martinez topped the seven-candidate field in Tuesday’s election to secure a spot on the runoff in the race to succeed longtime sheriff's department head Bill Gore, who retired earlier this year. Hemmerling landed in second place to earn a spot in the runoff with Martinez. Martinez told 10 News that Tuesday's results “really felt good honestly, because it’s been a long year.” Martinez added that it was encouraging to place so far ahead in the race. Hemmerling told 10News that he would look at overall campaign strate-

gy “to see what we'll have to do to get a big win in November.” The election comes as the sheriff's department battles with staffing issues and continued scrutiny over inmate deaths at its jail facilities. A state Auditor’s Office report indicated the death rate at San Diego County jails was far higher than other large California counties and that the situation “raises concerns about underlying systemic issues with the Sheriff’s Department’s policies and practices.” Since Gore’s retirement in February, Assistant Sheriff Anthony Ray has served in an interim role, but he is not running in Tuesday’s primary election. Martinez is looking to be the department’s first female sheriff, following her appointment last year

as the department’s first female second-in- command. Martinez, who has served within the sheriff’s department since 1985, has Gore’s endorsement, as well as the backing of County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher and San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria, among others. She has touted recent work in the county to implement non-law enforcement staffed teams to respond to people experiencing mental health crises. Martinez also says she will invest in hiring additional medical staff and mental health professionals for the county's jails, and will continue what she says is a culture of transparency regarding in-custody deaths and body-worn camera footage releases. Hemmerling was most recently a prosecutor at the San Diego City Attorney’s Office, and also previously served as a San Diego police

officer and U.S. Marine. Though Hemmerling told several media outlets that his retirement last month from the City Attorney’s Office was long in the works and intended to allow him to focus on his campaign, he recently came under fire for comments he made at a candidate forum in Ramona, which many viewed as anti-transgender. Hemmerling insisted his comments were directed at a county ordinance, and were not meant to criticize anyone based on their sex or gender identity. Hemmerling says that if elected, he will focus on behavioral health services for those incarcerated in county jails and diversion opportunities to keep others out of custody. He says he will also focus on transparency within the department in order to boost public trust.

Escondido considers term limits for elected officials By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — City Council is considering asking voters in November if they would like to set term limits for city elected officials and potentially change the city treasurer from an elected to an appointed position. Councilmember Mike Morasco brought forward both potential ballot measures at the May 25 council meeting. Both term limits and the future of the treasurer position have been subjects that the city and the public have discussed for quite some time, he noted. According to Morasco, a recent city survey showed the majority of respondents want term limits for elected officials like the mayor, council members and the treasurer. He also agrees. “I don’t think it behooves us to have people in office that long to become institutions unto themselves,” Morasco said. “I’d like to see new blood, young blood, other ideas, other individuals having that opportunity to learn, to grow, to have greater input and greater say as to what’s hap-

pening in the city of Escondido.” Morasco is also the longest-serving council member currently on the dais. He was first appointed in 2010 and has been reelected three times since. “As you heard in letters to the city tonight, people are tired of my perspective, so maybe we need to have that opportunity for people to know that I will not be an institution unto myself,” he added. Of San Diego County’s 18 cities, only eight of them have term limits for their elected officials. Oceanside and San Marcos are currently the only two cities in North County that have term limits for elected officials in place. There are a few ways the Escondido City Council could implement term limits on the ballot measure. The cities of La Mesa, National City and San Marcos allow three consecutive four-year terms while Oceanside sets their term limits at three four-year teams, consecutive or not. In Santee, council members are allowed three consecutive four-year terms while

the mayor is only allowed two four-year terms. Chula Vista, Coronado, and the city of San Diego allow two consecutive four-year terms. At the May 25 meeting, the Escondido City Council appeared to favor a limit of three consecutive four-year terms for council members with possibly only two fouryear terms for mayor. Council will again discuss the potential ballot measure at the June 22 meeting and provide direction to the city attorney to draft an ordinance. Only Councilmember Consuelo Martinez was hesitant to put a term limit measure on the November ballot. Though not opposed to the idea of term limits, her primary concern was its timing given the potential of two other ballot measures at the same time. Ballot measures are relatively pricey. The term limit ballot measure could cost the city between $48,000 and $78,000, which is a similar range for the other potential measures as well. City Attorney Michael McGuinness said that if the measure is put on the ballot

this year and approved by voters, it would affect terms beginning next year, which would include the mayor’s term as well as City Council districts 1 and 2, all three of which are up for election this year. McGuinness also noted that council will have to move “fairly quickly” on approving a term limit measure for this November’s ballot and could wait until the 2024 election. The other two potential ballot measures include a sales tax measure and modification to the city treasurer position.

teve Fisher’s first pitch, and his message, landed for strikes at Monday’s Padres game. “It’s great that baseball is jumping in and getting behind this,” said Fisher, the retired San Diego State basketball coach. “We need money and awareness and this creates both.” Fisher was tipping his cap to Major League Baseball for its second Lou Gehrig Day, which not only celebrates the former New York Yankee great, but takes aim at the disease that struck him: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. “He is intertwined with ALS,” said Fisher, a Rancho Santa Fe resident. Fisher is as well. Escondido’s Mark Fisher, his son and an assistant SDSU basketball coach, has fought ALS since 2011. The disease attacks nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord and leaves patients struggling with their muscle control. So MLB decided to turn Lou Gehrig Day into a giant fundraiser. That had Fisher climbing atop the Petco Park mound, where he all but shouted from the mountaintop. “There are a combination of things you need money for,” he said. “You need it for research, No. 1, so we can find a cure. Then you need it for patient

care.” Steve Becvar agreed. Becvar, of Valley Center, is with the ALS Association Greater San Diego Chapter and he rattles off where his organization provides aid. “Getting them equipment is the biggest thing,” he said. “Whether that is a wheelchair ramp at home, a walking cane, a power wheelchair or whatever they need. It doesn’t cost the family a penny as we support them through their journey.” Pennies from heaven would be nice, but Becvar’s group pounds the pavement to raise dough. It’s estimated that an ALS patient’s medical cost can approach $250,000 annually, so the

need for funds is real. Among Becvar’s endeavors is pairing those loving golf and hating ALS. He connects donors with exMLB players and they play golf at an exclusive club. The contributor gets to be a member for a day while creating a memory of a lifetime. Solana Beach’s Charles Nagy, who pitched for 14 seasons, is hosting someone with a big heart at the Rancho Santa Fe Country Club. “ALS has touched my life a few times so I jumped at the chance,” Nagy said. “I’m grateful that baseball is getting behind this to raise funds.” Raise your right hand if you want to master the

Holmgren, Gibson prevail at RSF Open By Staff

RANCHO SANTA FE — For openers, it was a stellar pro debut for August Holmgren. The former University of San Diego star claimed his first International Tennis Federation title when he won Sunday’s Rancho Santa Fe Open. Holmgren, who had advanced to the NCAA men's singles championship the week before, outlasted Gage Brymer, 6-4, 6-4, in the inaugural event of the SoCal Pro Circuit. Australia's Talia Gibson took the women's crown, as she won her first pro title as well, when beating Maria Kozyrev, 7-6 (4), 3-6, 7-6 (5). The SoCal Pro Circuit moves to the University of San Diego this week, before stops in Rolling Hills, Fountain Valley and Lakewood. The events, which featured $15,000 in prize money and ranking points, were created by USTA Southern California to aid

medical mystery that is ALS, which doesn’t have a known cause and, yet, a cure. That has Fisher pitching in, Nagy pitching for greens with a new friend and everyone thinking of Lou Gehrig’s iconic speech. The indestructible Gehrig, who played in 2,130 consecutive games, was forced to retire because of ALS but not before reminding a grieving nation that he was the “luckiest guy on the face of the earth.” Fate has dealt those with ALS a bum hand. But that doesn’t mean it will always be this way. “Every 90 minutes, someone is diagnosed with ALS and every 90 minutes someone loses their battle

to this fatal disease,” Becvar said. “Together and by teaming up, we’re going to create a world without ALS.” That has Fisher winding up his right arm and he looks to punch out ALS. It’s a tall task, but Fisher has been in tight spots before. “I’m a former high school driver’s education teacher,” Fisher said, with a grin. “So I know what it’s like to change lanes in heavy traffic.” For those with ALS and in a jam, Monday’s event made their path that much smoother.

Police probe alleged gang rape of minor by SDSU football players REGION — An investigation is underway — and has been for more than seven months — into the alleged gang rape last fall of an unconscious minor by members of the San Diego State University Aztecs football team. The San Diego Police Department's probe into the purported Oct. 16 sex assaults — the existence of which became public Friday morning, June 3, when The Los Angeles Times published an in-depth report about the case — is “complicated and ongoing,” SDPD public-affairs Lt. Adam Sharki acknowledged. “We understand that the nature of the alleged crime has raised concerns, especially in a tight-knit college community,” he said. “Since taking the initial report in October, San Diego Police Department sex-crimes investigators have made this case a priority and have been diligent in pursuing leads and

conducting interviews.” Sharki declined to release details about the alleged assaults, including whether any suspects had been identified or questioned, asserting that publicly disclosing “any information prematurely” about the alleged crime “would not only compromise the integrity of the case but could be damaging to anyone directly involved with the investigation.” The girl’s age was not disclosed. According to the Times, rumors have been spreading at SDSU for months that five football players raped the girl during an off-campus house party and “left her bloodied and bruised” in the backyard of the home. “I am very scared and worried that nothing is being done about this,” a student athlete told university officials via an anonymous reporting system, according to the newspaper.

y start in sports was when my father subscribed to four daily newspapers covering four cities. As a kid, I couldn’t start my day until I read the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette as it found its way delivered to my snow-covered porch. I immediately went to one section: the Sports page. In the early 1960s and behind radio and television, newspapers were today’s Google, imprinting players, teams, batting averages, pitching records and those endless stats in our minds. Today, newspapers are not what they used to be, but they will always remain the conduit between sports and fans. Some of the most gifted writers reported on our favorite teams and games. We could never imagine the changes in how we receive our sports information. Now it’s social media, websites, cable television, and many platforms that can give you instant access to anything your heart desires. Like you, perhaps, I have always been a sports fan. The fans make sports happen. I’ve seen what a true fan will do for their team. And when they win, all fans feel emotionally connected to their team. Living here in San Diego for over five decades, I’ve watched two professional teams relocate to L.A. As a transplant, I have always been a hardcore Steelers fan. But I watched as many San Diego fans had their hearts broken twice — once after the Clippers left in the early ’80s and again when the Chargers headed north in 2018. Pittsburgh fans would have burned the city down if the Steelers ownership abandoned its fanbase the way Dean Spanos abruptly pulled roots and left town. That’s comparable to the Steelers picking up and moving to Baltimore. And San Diego will never be the same. The Chargers had loyal fans for more than 60 years — rain or shine — and despite years of horrible seasons, the fans always supported their team. But injustice, disrespect and a lack of appreciation were the fans’ rewards. Now, the city’s favorite son has left home and found success in enemy territory (Los Angeles). I like good sports fans. Some rotten eggs, but most are loyalists who cheer for their teams. For me, that’s what makes sports great. The fans are heavily invested (no pun intended). • My pick for Saturday’s Belmont: Mo Donegal.

Fatal O’side plane crash GoJump’s second wreck this year By Laura Place

OCEANSIDE — Last week’s fatal crash of a skydiving aircraft in Oceanside marks the second accident involving a plane operated by skydiving company GoJump America in the past four months following another crash in February, Oceanside police officials have confirmed. Around 1:50 p.m. on June 3, the Cessna 208B Caravan was on its sixth flight of the day when it crashed while attempting to land at Bob Maxwell Field near Oceanside Municipal Airport, according to Oceanside Fire Department officials. Two individuals were inside the plane at the time of the crash, including a woman who was pronounced dead after being transported to Tri-City Medical Center, and a man who was in critical condition as of Friday. Media outlets at the scene reported that skydivers had already jumped out of the plane when the crash occurred. The cause of the fatal crash is under investigation by the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board. Oceanside police and fire officials have not released any further information about the condition of the man, nor the identity of the woman who died. According to data from FlightAware, the Cessna was on its sixth flight of the day when it crashed, taking off at 1:31 p.m. from Bob Maxwell Field and crashing near the field just 16 minutes later. The day’s previous round-trip flights, presumably for skydiving, had all taken between 15 and 20 minutes. The National Transportation Safety Board is also continuing to investigate a separate crash involving a GoJump aircraft from just over three months ago on Feb. 24, also near Oceanside Municipal Airport. The February crash, also of a Cessna 208B Caravan, left two men injured with no fatalities as the aircraft attempted to land at the Oceanside airport.

MEDIA OULETS at the scene reported that skydivers had already jumped out of GoJump America’s small aircraft when the crash occurred on June 3 in Oceanside. Federal authorities are still investigating a GoJump plane that crashed earlier this year. Photo by Ryan Grothe

Unlike the most recent incident, the February GoJump flight was in the air for around 50 minutes before crashing. A preliminary report regarding the February crash stated that after the

skydivers jumped from the plane, the pilot of the aircraft decided to use a steep beta descent described as a means to “race the skydivers to the ground,” as recounted by the passenger of the plane who was also a

pilot observing the flight. The report states that after conducting the descent with the power idle, the pilot flying the aircraft attempted to stop the descent as they drew near the airport by engaging the

power, but that the power lever, engine thrust and propeller speed lever were all unresponsive. The plane ultimately crashed after being unable to maintain altitude. According to the National Safety Transportation Board, full investigations into aviation incidents can typically take between one and two years to complete. While operated by GoJump, the aircrafts that crashed in both the February and June were rented from other companies — Nevada-based Desert Sand Aircraft Leasing Co. and GoSky America 5 Inc., respectively, according to FlightAware. Oceanside is one of two locations where GoJump offers tandem skydiving with over 90,000 jumps completed, according to the GoJump website. The company also operates in Las Vegas. GoJump did not respond to inquiries about the incident. Skydiving aviation accidents are rare, with approximately 3 million jumps tak-

ing place per year and nine fatal accidents killing 26 people occurring between 2012 and 2021, according to the United States Parachute Association. Last week’s wreck is the most recent in a series of small plane crashes in San Diego County over the past year. In March 2021, three adults in a small private plane were uninjured after their craft went down near El Capitan Reservoir in East County. Several months later, a small Piper aircraft registered to two Carlsbad veterinarians made an emergency landing on Interstate 5 near Via De La Valle. Just nine minutes after takeoff, the plane made a right-hand turn northbound up the coast before apparently making an emergency landing on southbound lanes of I-5 in Del Mar. Flight-track logs revealed the plane topped out at 1,800 feet before descending rapidly at approximately 1,000-feet per minute. No clear cause of the wreck was determined at the time. Last fall, a twin-engine Cessna C340 crashed in a residential neighborhood on Oct. 11 near Santana High School in Santee, killing at least two people, injuring several others and engulfing homes in flames. Two months later, a Learjet 35A business jet, which seats eight people and took off from John Wayne Airport in Orange County, crashed on December 27 in the unincorporated Bostonia neighborhood, near Gillespie Field airport in El Cajon. All four people aboard died, including a retired Oceanside fire deputy’s wife. More recently, a Camp Pendleton-based U.S. Marine Corps aircraft crashed on June 8 during a training flight in Imperial County, possibly killing at least four crew members. The Los Angeles Times, citing a federal source who spoke on condition of anonymity, reported that four personnel in the tilt-rotor aircraft had been killed. A search was underway for a fifth.

middle where a metal rod is inserted to help ensure the bait remains protected where only small rodents can access it. Rodent Pest Technologies also uses RCO Omega Gopher Grain Bait deep below ground for gopher control. James Gammill, district manager of Rodent Pest Technologies, told Wickus that the gopher bait is applied primarily on slope areas outside of common areas. Wickus did not find any violations against Rodent Pest Technologies. As for Brightview, four violations were found. The first violation relates to the list of pesticides Brightview uses in Arrowood that was sent to Avalon, which didn’t include three herbicides that were sprayed in the community – Snapshot 2.5 TG, Fusilade II and Sedgehammer. This constituted a violation for failing to provide a complete notice of applied pesticides in Arrowood. Brightview received the second violation for failing to complete pesticide use records. “Upon closer inspection of the use records, I noticed 10 records contained the word ‘spot’ or were left completely blank in the ‘Square Footage of Area Treated’ field,” Wickus stated in her report. Wickus also reviewed Brightview’s use records summary submitted to the county between June 2020 and May 2021. None of the records were submitted prior to the due date, which is the 10th of the month following the application month. Additionally, the submitted report for March 2021 recorded 46.8 pounds of Snapshot 2.5 TG applied, while a recorded use on March 23 of that same year

stated that 300 pounds were applied, garnering a third violation for the landscape company. Wickus issued a fourth violation to Brightview because the company did not include Sureguard or any pesticide group similar to flumioxazin, Sureguard’s active ingredient, in its safety training program. Despite the several violations, Wickus determined that none of infractions were linked to dogs falling ill or dying in the community. “I saw no evidence of veterinary tests performed that showed any symptom was directly related to pesticide exposure,” Wickus states. “I found no evidence that the use of legal registered pesticides by the two licensed companies contributed to any illnesses that the dogs in this neighborhood experienced.” Wickus goes on to explain that no samples were taken during the investigation because the complaints made by neighbors were “general in nature and did not focus on a specific application or a targeted area.” Wickus also notes that

many of the dogs appeared to be over their average life spans, citing information from the American Kennel

Club that medium-sized dogs live an average of 10-13 years. She suggests that many of the symptoms

the sick dogs experienced could be age-related. Both Gajria and Woelke dispute several of the claims made in the report. While the report includes a photo of flags Brightview uses to alert neighbors of spraying in certain areas, Woelke said that she has never seen a flag used in her nearly 20 years of living in the community. “Signs were never posted until 1/2022, letters were never sent… we’ve been here since May 2003….NEVER a flag, sign, letter,” Woelke writes in an email to another lead inspector with the county. Woelke also alleges that the report includes misstatements from neighbors and doesn’t include the same map that was sent to Wickus indicating where

bait stations are located around the county. Brightview took over landscaping services for Arrowood in June 2020 before Avalon Management Group took over management of the HOA the following December, according to correspondence between Brown and Wickus in the report. To date, residents are still pushing for an organic Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program through the HOA with little luck, according to Gajria. “They continue to ignore our repeated requests for a REAL organic IPM and they refuse to acknowledge our repeated requests for an organic land management program,” Gajria said via email. “I told them we weren’t going away and may consider other actions such as a petition or recall.”

T

he last issue of Get1Free had an ad for a guy who fixes sliding doors. As my screen door needed some help, I reached out for an estimate…and never heard

back. I understand that people are busy and can’t always respond immediately. But the whole idea of placing an ad is to get inquiries. Meaning if you know your ad is running, arrange for someone to respond…even if it’s just to say “Please give me 24 hours.” Admittedly, I didn’t call a second time. I object to chasing people so I can give them my business. Perhaps my project was too small for him. Or he’s overwhelmed with sales opportunities. Or he’s too disorganized. Whatever it is, he was sending me a message… so I took my business elsewhere. Long ago I learned you can’t do business with everyone. Geography, product lines, pricing, personality… all can prevent a prospect from being a good fit for a relationship. Indeed, I regularly get outreach from folks who don’t hit my minimum,

ask

mr. marketing rob weinberg want services I don’t sell, or where there’s no chemistry. The difference is I always return the call, even if it’s just to say “Sorry” or to refer them to someone else. I’d have respected being told there’s a minimum charge. After all, that ad cost him something, and he’s also got to account for his gas, time, overhead, parts, and profit. This was a simple job, and would probably only have netted him a few dollars. But ignoring me ensures I’ll never call him again, perhaps with a larger project. And FORGET referring him to friends. Nope…he’s lost me.

People do business with those they know, like, and trust, and we’re all selling ourselves in some way. Connect those two points and you realize that a little courtesy goes a long way, and can easily mean someone remembering you down the road if you’re polite to them today. Because I don’t care how mechanized our society becomes, people still want to be treated like people, and a returned call goes a LONG way. And with the Golden Rule firmly in mind, treat customers as you’d like to be treated. After all, if you really needed something fixed, wouldn’t you want the service provider to return YOUR call quickly? With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

TOO MANY ZUCCHINI? jano’s garden jano nightingale

N

ow is the time of year when you ask your neighbor, “Would you like some zucchini?” And they politely reply, “I already have too many, but thanks for the offer!” The North County climate might have something to do with this proliferation of all vegetables in the Cucurbita family. Our moist, slightly cloudy “May Gray” weather is actually helpful since the plants grow slowly and don’t produce tiny fruit but attain the perfect size of 4-5 inches. HOW TO GROW THE PERFECT SUMMER SQUASH

Yellow squash, patty pan squash and a wide variety of zucchini all need a large amount of space to grow. Their wonderfully wide leaves will extend to a circumference of at least 2 feet, so a typical 4-by-6-foot raised bed could only house

three mature plants. And the relative of the summer squash, the winter squash (acorn, delicata, butternut) can be planted at the same time but will require at least one or more months to bear fruit. Remember, the summer squash will grow with leaves that can be kept in check, but the winter squash vines and leaves can extend to over 8 feet. The key to attaining the most vegetable production for your space comes from interplanting. According to fellow garden writer Katherine Whiteside, “Plant snow peas in very early spring per packet instructions. When peas fade (about the same time lettuce bolts), plant three hills of squash (yellow, zucchini, winter, delicata, acorn or pumpkin). Allow vines to overrun the bed onto paths as summer progresses.” Katherine’s book, “The Way We Garden Now,” is still available online and holds wonderfully detailed and complete details for spring, summer and fall vegetable garden plans. In the Carlsbad Senior Center Garden, we planted three rows of lettuce in March, allowing them to grow until late May. Just

Software development and quality assurance jobs are also predicted to grow at a fast rate, sharing the highest pay rate of $58 per hour with medical and health services managers. The full list and their predicted growth rates are: -- Medical and Health Services Managers, 30%; -- Software Developers and Software Quality Assurance Analysts, 23%; -- Logistics, 21%; -- Child, Family and School Social Workers, 19%; -- Industrial Engineer, 14%; -- Teachers, Tutors and Instructors, 14%; -- Market Research and Marketing Specialists, 13%; -- Clinical Lab Technologists and Technicians, 11%; -- Civil Engineers, 11%; and -- Management Analysts, 11%. Nationally, the data expects these occupations to grow in a similar fashion with current median hourly wages varying between $17 and $53. Others that make the top 10 occupations nationally, but not regionally within San Diego, are coaches and scouts, interpreters and translators and substance abuse, behavioral disorder and mental health counselors.

CARE Court gets mixed reviews across region By Jacqueline Covey

REGION — While it’s gaining municipal support, foot soldiers say the latest attempt to reach unsheltered people with severe mental illness is, at best, a fluff piece or, at worst, a political game. Lawmakers and families of those suffering from psychotic disorders, though, feel it could be their Hail Mary to push their loved ones into treatment. The Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment (CARE) Court program was introduced in March by Gov. Gavin Newsom to aid people with mental health and substance abuse disorders. As proposed, the program links a team of providers and adults with diagnosed severe mental illnesses who are not clinically stabilized and may be a risk to themselves or others. A qualified participant would be enrolled into an agreement — that could upgrade to an involuntary, court-ordered plan — to receive treatment and county behavioral services. If a person cannot meet the standards, they may be hospitalized or put into a mental health conservatorship — different from its probate counterpart. The CARE Court proposal builds on the Assisted Outpatient Treatment Demonstration Project Act, or Laura’s Law, and Lanter man-Petr is- Short Act, which provides for short-term and longer-term involuntary treatment and conservatorships for people who are determined to be gravely disabled. The CARE program would not

quality of life and following the laws already in place. However, supporters believe that this precursor to conservatorship will divert individuals on the rotation among jails, hospitals and the streets. “Humans are and always have been unique in their conscious decision-making abilities regardless of mental disorders,” according to the mental health professionals at Tri-City Medical Center, addressing who should make the decisions for those suffering severe mental illnesses. “Everyone will have a different opinion about where to draw the line regarding who can make decisions and who cannot.”

override existing law nor redefine the qualifications for those who are gravely disabled or severely mentally ill. So far, a handful of government bodies in San Diego County — including Del Mar, Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, the San Diego Board of Supervisors, Poway, Coronado, Chula Vista, Escondido — have officially supported the CARE Court bill, or Senate Bill 1338. Others, such as the Encinitas City Council, have not considered a resolution. The CARE Court bill passed through the California Senate in May and is currently in the Judicial and Health committees

within the Assembly. The subject hit particularly close to the Vista community on May 24, as City Council member Joe Green shared his sister’s story during a regular council meeting. Green has witnessed how mental illness takes hold in tragic ways. The Vista City Council, like other municipalities, still has questions. Governments in San Diego County are seeking additional information on funding, eligibility standards and timelines for the CARE policy framework. “I didn’t have a CARE Court,” Green said, “I didn’t have anybody that knew how to work the sys-

JUNE 14TH ~ FLAG DAY “The Stars and Stripes", "Old Glory", "The Star Spangled Banner"... by any name, the flag of the United States is one of our nation's most widely recognized symbols. Because it has been our symbol for over 246 years, many people do not realize that the design of our flag has been officially modified 26 times since 1777. Prior to the proclamation of the 48-star flag, there was no official arrangement of the stars. This resulted in the various designs officially recognized during our country’s history. Our flag has become a powerful symbol of Americanism, and is proudly flown over many businesses and homes. We hope you will join us as we salute and honor “Old Glory” and all that it represents on Flag Day and every day!

This is here to assist our community with recovery and power.” Joseph De Vico, a former investigator with the San Diego County Public Conservator’s Office and an expert in behavioral health, is not convinced.

If passed, enrollment in CARE Court must be the least restrictive alternative necessary to ensure the person’s recovery and stability; this point is valid for all involuntary programs for those suffering mental illnesses. The process would begin with a petition signed by a licensed behavioral health professional that is brought before the court. An adult roommate or family member; a licensed behavioral health professional or a public entity treating the individual; a first responder; a public guardian; and the individual can initiate a CARE petition. If a court agrees, a case management hearing would be set to determine a settlement agreement or the CARE agreement, which does not include involunTURN TO CARE COURT ON A20

about what was happening to the residents through recent media coverage. Feeling there was more to the story, they reached out to help. “Housing is a human right,” Musheyev said. Residents are hoping to buy some time so that they can better prepare for the move, which will likely send several of them back into homelessness. According to Mike Thorne, communications officer for the city, multiple outreach teams including Interfaith Community Services and the county have visited the property since April to help the residents

at risk of becoming homeless once they are evicted. “The outreach teams have been visiting the property two to three times a week to assist these occupants in getting connected to benefits, housing, and programs that offer a higher level of care,” Thorne said in an email. Musheyev, who has frequently visited the property for the last month, said that wasn’t true. Recently things have been tense for the property’s residents, who have bonded as a family looking after each other. For now, they hope to have some more time to stay on the property and face the uncertain future together.

vironmental flaws were so severe that she issued an injunction to protect the environment from further destruction,” Save the Field spokesperson Rick Schloss said in a June 3 statement. “DMUSD has consistently operated as if rules don’t apply to them. They ignored the facts, have dismissed community input and silenced critical environmental and safety concerns. Judge Bacal has taken affirmative steps to ensure that the environment and neighborhood are safe and protected.” The Del Mar Union School District has been planning the $45 million rebuild of the 61-year-old school since 2019 using Measure MM bonds, with hopes of completing the project for the 2020-21 school year. However, litigation by Save the Field has delayed its progress significantly, with the price tag for the project rising by around $6.1 million and a new completion date estimated for May 2023, frustrating district leaders and many Del Mar Heights families. By the time the injunction was granted, the district had completed demolition of the site and begun grading, installing utilities and finishing up outfall repair work in the Torrey Pines State Reserve to protect against critical erosion. Chris Delehanty, the district's assistant super-

AT THE TIME the most recent injunction was granted, the Del Mar Union School District had just completed demolition of the site in preparation for construction. The judge’s ruling marks the second time the Del Mar Heights renovations have been delayed due to litigation over environmental and safety concerns. Graphic courtesy of BakerNowicki Design

intendent of business services, said Save the Field’s efforts are not truly focused on the environment, but an “ongoing, cynical and seemingly endless litigation to thwart this project.” Delehanty added that the delay is harmful to Del Mar Heights’ student population, which has been divided between Del Mar Hills and Ocean Air School during the rebuild process. “The delay is hurting our students by keeping them off campus and dividing their school. We have a school group that is not able

to be together and this is going into our third year,” Delehanty told the district board of trustees on May 25. “This is not about CEQA, it is about people wanting to stop the district from building on a part of the campus that their houses overlook.” This marks the second time the courts have stayed the rebuild process in the past two years. In December 2020, Superior Court judge Joel Wohlfeil granted an injunction in Save the Field’s separate lawsuit against the district, ordering the district to reevaluate elements of the proj-

ect including construction noise, traffic increases and environmental impacts of the coastal habitat. Delehanty noted that these concerns have been addressed by the district or are no longer relevant, and that the latest petition for injunction is simply an effort to stop the project from moving forward. Since 2020, Save the Field’s protests against the rebuild have focused mainly on plans to expand a new parking lot onto the recreational fields, reducing available recreational space as a result. The nonprofit

also claims that the current plans for a “one way in, one way out thoroughfare” and the lack of 100 feet of defensible space impedes safe evacuation in the high-wildfire-risk zone They also criticized the district’s planned increased enrollment size of 550 students at the school despite dropping enrollment. “The District must implement the Measure MM promise to rebuild, not redevelop a megaschool that wipes what little open space recreation exists in the community,” Schloss said. “Save The Field has always

supported a safe, rightsized school that meets the needs of students, protects our environment, provides much-needed outdoor recreation space and allows for safe evacuation of students and the surrounding neighborhood.” District leaders say that the city planning commission and city council, as well as the judge, have confirmed that the district’s plans adequately address the issue. “The issues related to fire danger were considered by the district, the judge, the city’s planning commission, and the city council, all of whom considered the issue to have been adequately addressed by the district’s project,” Delehanty said. Save the Field is required to post a $60,000 bond as a condition of the injunction. The bond amount was decided based on assertions from the district that delay damages will be $2,000 per day, with an estimated delay of 30 days. Delehanty said district leaders plan to file an appeal of the injunction in order to allow construction to resume. “We are hopeful that construction will commence again soon and we can look forward to the Del Mar Heights students returning to their campus to attend school in a new, state of the art learning facility,” Delehanty said. The city of San Diego declined to comment on the injunction, citing ongoing litigation.

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

LEGALS 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.

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 976-3916, or visit this internet website tracker. auction.com/sb1079, using the file number assigned to this case 19-58574 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.

CITY OF CARLSBAD NOTICE OF JOINT PUBLIC HEARING

06/10/2022 CN 26652

PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state will be held by the duly appointed trustee as shown below, of all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. Trustor: SAWWAF BACCHUS, A MARRIED MAN Duly Appointed Trustee: ZBS Law, LLP Deed of Trust recorded 4/29/2014, as Instrument No. 2014-0171157, of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of San Diego County, California, Date of Sale: 7/1/2022 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: Entrance of the East County Regional Center, East County Regional Center, 250 E. Main Street, El Cajon, CA 92020 Estimated amount of unpaid balance and other charges:

$305,035.95 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. Street Address or other common designation of real property: 5071 TRANQUIL WAY #102 OCEANSIDE, California 92057 Described as follows: As more fully described on said Deed of Trust A.P.N #.: 157-040-73-03 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to 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 (855) 9763916 or visit this Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the file number assigned to this case 19-59424. 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. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 976-3916, or visit this internet website tracker. auction.com/sb1079, using the file number assigned to this case 19-59424 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee

receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

management hearing would be set to determine a settlement agreement or the CARE agreement, which does not include involuntary services. If no deal is made, the person must undergo another hearing to determine if the court-ordered plan is appropriate. The person would receive a clinical evaluation at this time to be used in the determination. The CARE plan connects the individual with several supportive services (including those for mental health, substance abuse, housing, and a public defender and supporter) for 12 months and subsequent 12-month renewal. At the end of the 24 months, the person either successfully graduates or is referred to a hospital or for a mental health conservatorship under Lanterman-Petris. According to De Vico, the route to conservatorship is inevitable under this plan. The LPS expert now runs his outfit helping the gravely disabled — and

Joseph Provincio, a man in his 40s from New Orleans, hasn’t seen his daughters in more than two years. It was unclear how long Provincio has been living in the streets of downtown San Diego. Provincio has a brain tumor, which he says confuses his sentences sometimes. Then he found out the doctors found an abnormal mass on one of his children’s brains. “I lost it,” he said. “It didn’t make sense to me that I was paying $800 a month on rent when I could be sending that money to my daughter.” For an unclear duration of time, Provincio has been working various jobs to send at least $1,000 per month to the mother of his children. To him, it’s either he provides for himself or his daughters. So, he made that desystem that has repeatedly failed an individual. “I mean, we all know the definition of insanity is trying the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different result,” Deputy Mayor John Franklin said during a council meeting on May 24 discussing CARE Court. Franklin later added, “What will we do when the approach that has been tried for a long time for decades fails?” In a previous article, The Coast News interviewed Deborah, an Oceanside mother struggling together with her son as he’s fallen into homelessness, been diagnosed with schizophrenia, and taken to drug use. Jake’s been to jail a few times and county behavioral health facilities just the same. However, Deborah said he’s learned his way out of the court-ordered help — or learned how to avoid voluntary services. According to Tri-City, symptoms of psychotic dis-

cision. Provincio is not a likely candidate for the CARE Court program. What everyone needs, regardless of their mental state, he said, is opportunities to feel dignified. He suggested accessible hot water heaters start – he finds bad hygiene offensive. “Everything is alright and then it’s not,” he said of his own disability, adding he wasn’t sure court-ordered help was for everyone. He said that homeless are tormented in San Diego County — constantly forced to move by city officials, afraid of being attacked — the paranoia gets to you, Provincio said. “They make it harder on all of us,” he said. “If you push someone enough, they’ll lose it.” orders include social withdrawal, decreased motivation, and decreased a sense of purpose, and individuals tend to self-medicate due to these negative impacts. Those with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders also experience varying levels of paranoia and delusional beliefs – which affect their ability to take care of themselves at times logically. “Clients often need a collaborative approach that includes medication management, group and individual therapy, and psychoeducation related to nutrition, substance use and management of symptoms,” Tri-City names outpatient programs, which are generally covered by the state, as suitable alternatives. Deborah, whose son accesses county services through state insurance, couldn’t quite find the words for the ineffectiveness and overburden she saw in these facilities. There are just not enough resources to provide ade-

quate help. “Every time [my son] is set up for failure because he’s not getting the treatment he truly needs,” Deborah said. Last year, Jake was diverted by the courts and placed into treatment with the understanding that he would be receiving psychiatric treatment. That didn’t happen because there was no directive from the judge, or so Deborah was told. After ping-ponging between her son’s public defender and probation officer, she found out her son was, in fact, able to access psychiatric treatment – with or without direction from the court. “[The probation officer] says, ‘Well, we didn’t want to put too much pressure on your son,’” according to Deborah. “My son’s treatment program was four hours a week of lessons; the rest of the time was freedom at a sober living house… all he did was play video games,” she explained. “He didn’t even have weekly therapy. He didn’t even meet with a psychologist or therapist.” Finally, after some encouragement, Deborah got her son to volunteer to get psychiatric help — which he had to wait behind 35 people to benefit. “Then, he relapsed,” Deborah said. “After four months, he never got that spot, and he relapsed into drug use.” Jake is possibly a candidate for CARE Court.

No ‘Punk Rock’

New policy frameworks, conservatorships, and county-wide behavioral health initiatives all have the same goal: Ensuring — by either voluntary or involuntary means — that a specific population is getting treatment and has a safe place to live. The terms of note in these conversations are “gravely disabled” and “severely mentally ill,” both are defined by the state with varied dictations on the level of intervention legislative bodies are allowed to impose. The CARE Court proposal inherently means that an individual is subject to a locked placement — such as a 5150 or a 5250 or eventually conservatorship. However, these individuals must be in the least restrictive, most clinically appropriate level of care at any given time. “This is all over the LPS Act,” De Vico said, “The way you prove to the court that an individual needs a higher level of care is to show that the existing level is insufficient.” To some, the need for more access to locked treatment facilities and clinically-sufficient supportive step-down services that promote that individual’s success is inarguable. However, a boney policy initiative is a focus rather than employing the tools already laid out in behavioral health programs. According to De Vico: “When we expand access to these programs, what TURN TO CARE COURT ON A22

Solar mentor, recruiter, surfer and father I spent much of my childhood on the Ocean by the time I turned 10, I was working on a drift fishing boat as a second mate. Spotting schools of fish, untangling lines, and scrubbing the decks were my typical days growing up in Miami, FL. I got my first scuba diving certification at age 12! Those early years awakened in me an eternal love and fascination for our oceans. The colorful coral reefs, the playful dolphins, turtles, crabs, and the birds swooping down to catch their lunch… all captivating me and eventually inspired me to make a career in clean energy. Later in my adult years, while working in city government, I quickly learned that our intricate and fragile ecosystems are under constant threat from big corporations and industries. And in particular, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce seemed to be perpetually at war with the environment. Their policies gave a free pass to corporations to pollute our atmosphere with harmful chemicals and dump industrial toxic effluents into the ocean. It was here I got my first taste at taking a firm

stand against these destructive policies. A group of us banded together to form the US Green Chamber of Commerce, where we would give voice to environmental best practices to Corporate America. We showed corporations and industries how green practices can not only be sustainable but also profitable and portray them in a positive light with their consumers. The more I learned about the horrible destruction caused by big corporations, industries, and short-sighted government agencies, the further and further those simple days, long ago, out on the ocean felt.

We’ve been so dependent on dirty energy for such a long time, it’s led to our fragile ecosystems being destroyed and low-lying communities being displaced due to rising sea levels. All of which potentially leave our children and future generations a very grim future. So, I made a big, unexpected decision. After leaving the U.S. Green Chamber of Commerce I went out on a limb and founded my own company. It was an LED lighting company to help consumers lower their electric bills while significantly improving their energy efficiency. This would be my way of helping save the planet. However, you may remember, back in the early 2000s, those high-efficiency LED light bulbs were still 8x-10x the cost of regular light bulbs. Even though I was able to help thousands of homeowners and businesses save money on their energy bills, prices weren’t yet affordable for mass consumer adoption. And it quickly became clear that this wasn’t the business where I would make my big environmental impact and create generational wealth

for my family so I exited the business. Solar has always stood out as the key to clean, renewable energy, but it wasn’t until I was introduced to Powur that I realized I could build generational wealth for my family while making a huge difference. It brings me great joy to help homeowners save huge on their energy bills and mitigate their dependence on the grid. I’m making the difference I’ve always wanted to make! At Powur, saving money and lowering your carbon footprint go hand in hand. I’m helping the world make the shift to clean energy while helping homeowners put money back in their pockets to support their families. I would be so happy to provide you with a free energy savings report to see how much you will save with solar. San Diego has the distinction of having the highest energy costs in the nation and SDG&E just asked for another big increase! It's time to make the switch away from SDG&E and I would be honored to assist you. Call me anytime at (760) 846-7660 or email me at David@DavidSteel. org

Tips to stay prepared, connected during disasters For Southern California residents, preparing and protecting your home or business in the event of a wildfire is a daily reality. A top priority for Cox during a wildfire or other natural disaster is to keep customers connected so they can stay informed, check in with family and friends, and even access their shows and movies while away from home. Cox also works hard to keep business customers, including hospitals and offices of Emergency Services, connected so they can continue to serve their customers and the public. Wildfire season now begins earlier and ends later than in years past, so Cox prepares all year long, reviewing its business continuity plan and running through mock wildfire events so employees in all facets of its operations will be prepared and know their role and responsibilities during a natural disaster. When strong winds and other weather conditions create an increased risk for wildfires, the local power company may notify their residential customers, and business customers like Cox, that they’ll be implementing a

we’re really saying to everybody out there who would already be using this program is, ‘We just want to let you know that you’re still eligible, but those of you who cannot make use of a voluntary resource or who need to receive stuff on an involuntary basis in a closed setting for a while, we’ve done nothing to increase your odds of getting treatment.” Law enforcement has the discretion to transport an individual to an Emergency Psychiatric Unit to be evaluated and possibly placed on hold.

ementary School campus, planned to hold around 850 students. Construction is scheduled to finish in the fall, with students able to enter the campus over winter break, according to Superintendent Johnsen. Health was a large focus of the past year in the San Marcos Unified School District, as students returned for a full year of in-person learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. “When we opened the school year, we made three commitments to our families — we were going to keep schools open, keep kids in class, and keep students and staff safe,” Johnsen said, describing how the district held 25 COVID-19 and flu vaccination events in coordination with the city to support this mission. The superintendent also described the district’s work to support students in their learning goals, which proved to be difficult particularly for younger children who had been forced to learn solely via a computer. However, thanks to the

more oversight, in De Vico’s perspective. “For all of the oversight or redundancy that it creates, none of that has anything to do with ensuring that the people who decide who’s going to go to the ER, who’s going to go to the hospital, who’s going to end up possibly on a 14-day hold will be reviewed, supervised to see if they are operating in good faith,” he said. This, too, is a major red flag to Cusack, representing 30 people suffering homelessness for various infractions. She doesn’t trust putting the lives of the unsheltered, particularly those with severe mental illnesses, in the hand of those who treat them carelessly. “The mental health trauma that people is suffered at the hands of the state,” Cusack, who named the five threats homeless people face: Service providers, other homeless, the public, the police, “the act of just being homeless is an act of systemic violence imposed by the state.” ronment. Council members have also expressed frustrations about the Coastal Commission’s delay in distributing their analysis of the project until last week, as it only gave the city a matter of days to meet and provide feedback. Despite discussions about potential Brown Act violations, the council agreed to designate Gaasterland as the representative at the June 8 Coastal Commission meeting and present the council’s feedback. City Attorney Leslie Devaney and City Manager Ashley Jones did not respond to requests for comment from The Coast News. work of staff and students, test scores remain in the top 20% of the state’s districts. “Coming into this year, our students had some significant gaps. But our teachers worked really hard, staff worked hard, and students are very resilient,” Johnsen said. The district also invested in additional counselors and social workers to ensure wraparound support for students, as the need began to outpace the resources available. Johnsen announced that to meet this need, the district has also received a $1.25 million grant that will support the implementation of “wellness units” in schools next year. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, the district was able to make headway on new educational programs including career technical education (CTE), which involved a woodshop class building a residential dwelling unit for organization Wounded Warriors, and a new veterinary technology program at Twin Oaks High School. “This is the kind of work we are doing with our students; they are doing real-world work that makes a difference,” Johnsen said.

Tree Doctor wins award two years in a row Since 1985, Russell Bowman has been delighting residents of San Diego County with his plant and tree expertise. So, it’s no wonder Bowman Plant and Tree Care Specialists have been named the San Diego Union-Tribune Community Press’ “Best of North County” voters’ poll for tree and plant care for a 2nd year in a row! He is lovingly referred to as the San Diego “tree doctor extraordinaire” by his clients, Bowman is known for transforming sickly trees and gardens into Disneyesque wonderlands. Using his own proprietary blend of organic biological nutrition, Bowman feeds plants at night — a technique he picked up during his time as a horticulturist at Disneyland. “When you feed plants at night, they have enough time to absorb the nutrition, before it is degraded by the sun’s rays,” he said. “That’s why, when most people are winding down their days, eating dinner, and going to bed, we are out feeding plants and trees.” He’s done more than just care for sick plants and trees, he’s revolutionized both residential and commercial properties by the use of his organic fertilizer tanks that inject his

magical formula through your irrigation systems. This program reduces the households use of water overall by 30%. In a very short time, this program pays back through reduced water bills. “When you give your body proper nutrition, it affects your overall health and boosts your immunity, so you don’t get sick. The same is true for plants and trees.” Bowman feeds complete “nutrition delivery biology” derived

from earthworm castings to replenish the missing healthy soil biology. This works with a client’s current irrigation system so that each time the landscaping is watered, the needed soil biology is replenished. “This is the secret to keeping your property looking like a five-star resort.” Russell is quick to point out that healthy plants and trees are also environmentally friendly.

A healthy plant will be more efficient at photosynthesizing sunlight into oxygen and the healthy soil/compost helps bring down uses far less water. He donates his time and expertise for the trees for the Point Loma Association and gardens at the Rock Church in Point Loma, Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery, the YMCA, Barnes Tennis Center, Chili’s Restaurants, Stone Brewery in Escondido, and San Diego Botanic Garden. He also served with the San Diego Rose Society in Balboa Park for 12 years. “My calling is to beautify the earth, making trees and plants healthy,” The Master Gardener taught me everything I know. I’ve learned that when you love something, it’s not something you have to do; it’s something you want to do.” To learn more about Bowman and his services, please contact Russell at 858-499-9417. He provides tree and plant nutritional care as well as ongoing routine garden maintenance.

Despite Project Blue Book’s earlier finding that “no UFO reported, investigated, and evaluated by the Air Force has ever given any indication of threat to our national security,” the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a whitepaper last year concluding UAPs pose a flight safety issue for pilots and “may pose a challenge to

s summer approaches I face the usual horrible truths. I need to shop for a bathing suit and for summer-weight pants. This is most women’s finest nightmare. All winter, I can successfully remain in denial about my thick waist, poochy gut, love handles and backside that has continued to creep south until I can now sit without bending my knees. In winter, I drape myself in forgiving wool and baggy sweaters. Then the weather begins to warm up and things get ugly. I’m not even overweight. But in one of life’s greatest injustices, that doesn’t seem to really matter when it comes to wrapping my nether portions in something that has to button or is made of nylon and spandex. Sure, I exercise, but I have no trouble replacing every calorie I might burn in my aerobics class. Hence, my body shape has remained “tres anjou.” You can’t go around shouting, “I had kids and it was worth it!” all the time. Sometimes you just want to look firm. I’m also trying to decide, this summer, if it is worth the investment of time and money to just have my entire body waxed from the neck down. It’s not what you think. My biggest issue is my forearms. In my youth, the hair on my arms was very blond and laid nicely flat. Somehow, somewhere between then and now, my follicles went berserk. One day, I glanced over and, to my horror, I found I have the arm hair

TURN TO UFOS ON B4

IN 1969, the U.S. government closed down Project Blue Book, a research program under the Air Force to investigate UFO sightings. Last year, Pentagon officials met with Congress to discuss “unidentified aerial phenomena” for the first time in 50 years and to “assess and mitigate any associated threats to safety of flight and national security.” Photos via National Archives/FBI

Local photo joins growing UFO interest By Jacqueline Covey

OCEANSIDE — At approximately 4 a.m. in May 2014, Carlsbad photographer Ann Patterson's intended subject was the moon, but her camera appeared to capture something unseen by her naked eye: a fluorescent bell-shaped object teetering over the Oceanside pier. While it remains unclear what exactly the photo portrays (lights, reflections, dust, glare or perhaps a UFO), Patterson, who would not say she physically saw the object, is confident she captured something other-worldly at the iconic North County dock. “Strange things happen there,” Patterson said. The peculiar relationship between UFO sightings and the San Diego coast was limited to discussion in closed session on May 17 during a hearing of the U.S. House Intelligence subcommittee on counterterrorism, counterintelligence and counterproliferation. While Pentagon officials said they were committed to determining the origins of credible UFO (also “unidentified aerial phenomena,” or UAPs) reports, they also told law-

the first dollars allocated to UAPs in a decade. “Unidentified aerial phenomena are a potential national security threat, and they need to be treated that way,” Chairman André Carson (D-Indiana) told fellow committee members. “For too long, the stigma associated with UAPs has gotten in the way of good intelligence analysis. Pilots avoided reporting or were laughed at when they did. Today, we know better. UAPs are unexplained, it’s true, but they are real. They need to be investigated, and any threats they pose need to be mitigated.” However, not everyone is convinced these strange encounters are a national CARLSBAD PHOTOGRAPHER Ann Patterson’s 2014 photo that appears to show a strange threat. object (left side of photo, just below the moon) near Oceanside Pier.

makers that UFOs are not aliens. “We have detected no emanations within the UAP Task Force that would suggest it is anything nonterrestrial in origin,” said Scott Bray, deputy director of Naval Intelligence. The congressional hearing — the first in more than 50 years on the subject — unveiled a shadowy

organization that quietly restarted the efforts of Project Blue Book, an Air Force program for the investigation of UFOs that concluded in 1969. According to Ronald Moultrie, undersecretary of defense for intelligence and security, the role of the newly established Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchroniza-

tion Group is “to facilitate the identification of previously unknown or unidentified airborne objects in a methodical, logical and standardized manner.” The recently-formed group is the successor to the U.S. Navy’s Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force and was added to this year’s National Defense Authorization Act, marking

Filling up on ocean fun for the cost of a tank of gas

I

recall pulling into World Gas Station in my hometown of Montebello and filling up my VW Bug for $2.50. You can tell by this tidbit that this was during a bygone era, in this case 1967. You also realize that fueling the same car today will require a bank loan.

Pet of the Week Nagini is pet of the week at Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 3-year-old, 9-1/2-pound, male, domestic short hair cat with a buff and white tabby coat. Nagini rubs against people to get attention. He gets along with other cats and would be fine living with kids. He was transferred to RCHS from a shelter in Riverside County through the FOCAS (Friends of County Animal Shelters) program. The $100 adoption fee includes medical exam, spay, up-to-date vaccinations, registered microchip and a one-year license if her new home is in the jurisdiction of San Diego Humane Society’s Department of Animal Services.

crisis because I lived within feet of Swami’s at the time. Maybe I wouldn’t enjoy it so much now since I live about three miles or around $10 from the nearest surfable waves. Surf comes (mostly during the winter) and goes (our smallest waves tend to occur between June and August in North County). Still, there’s no need to cry over spilled whitewater — simply view the ocean with another goal in mind and get back out there. I was late to the party as far as beach fishing goes, but I currently look for-

ward to this season as much for the fish that migrate into the shallows as I do a deep south swell. It was probably 20 years ago on one of those typically flat and muggy early June mornings when I strolled along the sand to see two nearly arm-length corbina strung up through their gills on the lifeguard tower. Their lifeless and eatable flesh prompted a look into the shallows where, to my surprise, I noticed something I hadn’t bothered with before. Two fish of the same breed and similar size were

feasting on sand crabs, head down, in sand barely deeper than my big toe is wide. I inquired on the method of catching such a fish, was told, bolted to the local sporting goods store, laid down roughly $30 for gear (like gas, the price of fun is now more than double, but still a bargain), was ripped off for the price of a license, something that reeks of being illegal since the ocean does not belong to the state, and drove back to the beach to try out my new hobby. That was how beach fishing began for me, and

I now anticipate it every summer with nearly as much stoke as I once did “opening day” (when the first north swell leads to rides that end up past the lifeguard tower) at Swami’s. While spear fishing in the Swami’s region is no longer legal, strapping on a pair of cheap fins and an equally low-cost face plate (dive mask) is well worth the effort. Summer’s here and the ocean will be relatively still for a few months. That doesn’t mean, however, that it isn’t alive with joyful possibilities.

U.S. national security.” “Our aviators train as they would fight,” Bray told lawmakers. “So any intrusions that may compromise the security of our operations by revealing our capabilities, our tactics, techniques, or procedures are of great concern to the Navy and the Department of Defense.” The nine-page document, “Preliminary Assessment on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena,” reflects unexplained occurrences between November 2004 to March 2021. (Since sightings of UAPs date back to the 1940s and were not consistently reported, this was the tailored dataset used to analyze these events.) In 2021, there were 144 unexplained sightings recorded — one object was conclusively identified as a large, deflated balloon. But this past year, UAP encounters nearly doubled due to streamlining reports and destigmatization. Pentagon officials told lawmakers there are now 400 (and counting) unexplained incidents sitting in the UAP database. The U.S. military has never made an attempt to contact a UAP, nor were any collisions reported between these objects and aviators. However, Bray said there have been 11 "near misses" involving pilots and UAPs between 2004 and 2021. Subcommittee members encouraged the intelligence agencies to diversify the data pool, as the Federal Aviation Administration VOLUNTEER

A NAVY F/A-18 Super Hornet launches from the flight deck of San Diego-based aircraft carrier USS Nimitz. In November 2004, the USS Princeton and USS Nimitz, of the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group, both detected multiple “unidentified aerial phenomena” on several occasions. A U.S. Navy spokeperson later confirmed the video from these encounters, “FLIR1,” includes footage of UAP. U.S. Navy photo

was the only non-military agency that Pentagon officials confirmed collected UAP data. “I think standardized reporting without a doubt is key to helping us ascertain what some of these are,” Bray said, concerning adopting a citizen-based reporting system. However, there may be added caution when welcoming public insight. “This isn’t just happening to members of the military, let’s be honest,” said Katie Howland, a humanitarian and UAP advocate based in San Diego. “I think the biggest thing we need to do is destigmatize

the conversation and not label people who say they’ve seen something strange as weird or crazy.” Howland said that science is built on the unknown and the government should welcome some input from outside the military. “Every bit of scientific knowledge started off as something that was impossible or weird, so I think we just have to treat it as exactly that,” Howland said, referring to public, unofficial reports as “data points."

inserted her company watermark but did not alter the images beyond that. The Coast News was not able to independently verify the object seen in the photo. Patterson isn’t the only one who has seen odd things off the coast near Camp Pendleton. While sightings of unidentified flying objects date back decades, the Pentagon directed two staff members to shuffle through 20 years of data, starting with odd encounters reported by the USS Nimitz and USS Princeton. In November 2004, occasions of multiple UAPs were detected several times within the training zone of the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group off the coast of San Diego — the “genesis of modern conversation,” Howland said. “[The USS Nimitz and USS Princeton] had a number of days where there were anomalous sightings, the UAP Task Force actually brought up this encounter in their hearing as being still unexplained and one of the most remarkable cases,” Howland said. While preparing for deployment to the Arabian Sea, four naval aviators in two fighter jets witnessed “an elongated egg or Tic

Tac” the size of a fighter jet hovering over a “disturbance” under the ocean’s surface. Witnesses described the object as “solid white” and “smooth with no edges.” Reports of that incident reflect clear skies and calm waters that day. “There was something churning underneath the water that it seemed to be interacting with intelligently,” Howland said about the event. Retired U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander Alex Dietrich and Officer David Fravor, each piloting fighter jets with backseaters, were sent to investigate the object hovering just above the water. “It’s pointing northsouth and it’s just going forward, back, left, right,” Fravor said in an interview with NBC in April 2021. While Dietrich stayed high, Fravor dove lower to get a closer look at the object. “And then it starts coming up at us,” Fravor said. The wingless object then began to mimic Fravor’s flight patterns. “So, it’s literally aware that we’re there, there's no doubt,” Fravor said in the interview. “It mirrored me.”

Then, the strange vessel disappeared. The military later confirmed the USS Princeton had been detecting “multiple anomalous aerial vehicles” operating in the vicinity of the Nimitz training group and descending “very rapidly from approximately 60,000 feet down to approximately 50 feet in a matter of seconds,” according to an official document of the encounter. In 2019, the U.S. Navy also confirmed three videos circulating the web — FLIR1, Gimbal and Go Fast — “show incursions into our military training ranges by unidentified aerial phenomena.” In FLIR1, a 2004 video depicting the “Nimitz incident,” shows an oblong-shaped object darting away from military sensors. There are the “five observables,” or traits most commonly associated with UAPs: no visible sign of propulsion, sudden/instantaneous acceleration, no signatures following hypersonic velocities, low observability and trans-medium travel (i.e. interacting with the air and sea). When asked about unidentified submersible (underwater) objects, subcommittee members were once again deferred to a closed session with Pentagon officials. And while the reasons behind certain locations of a majority of military UFO sightings remains unclear, California is the top reporting spot for civilian sightings. When asked about the connection between trans-medium travel and coastal towns, Howland speculates there’s more to the story of interest to the public. “There’s a lot of questions about this,” Howland said. “One of the members of Congress explicitly asked about unidentified submersible objects [during the hearing], and they relegated that conversation to the classified briefing. When I hear that something's being relegated, that typically means there’s something to it that they want to discuss. So, there’s definitely a tie there.” According to the National UFO Reporting Center, California and Florida have, in some cases, more than 10 times the number of reported sightings than other states. California has more than 15,000 cases, and Florida has 7,612. Other states, for example, range between 265 sightings (North Dakota) and 4,000 in Pennsylvania. The UFO Reporting Center was founded in 1974 by noted UFO investigator Robert J. Gribble. In 1996, it began as an online public database. According to its website, federal law enforcement entities routinely directed UAP calls to the center.

40s, has lived near San Bernardino in rural areas most of his life. He currently lives in Fulton, a census-designated town with a population of 413. Mendez said he has seen hundreds of UFOs in his lifetime, attributing the persistent sightings to his rural life. There’s no light pollution, Mendez said, so he’s able to freely examine the night sky. When asked about the intelligence hearing, Mendez said he was happy there was official evidence to confirm his belief. However, he’s concerned with any investigation being too military-focused. “I think they’re just observing,” Mendez said. Patterson, too, believes that UAP are something offworld; however, her only evidence was seemingly caught through a lens during these odd hours of the morning. Patterson’s image could resemble the shape of a UAP that was videoed going 120 knots against the wind by a U.S. Navy pilot in 2015. Or it could simply be refracted light from the night sky and lights on the pier. These unknown entities in the 2004-2021 dataset were registered across multiple sensors, including radar, infrared and weapon-seeking observations — all measurements that confirm UAP are physical objects. UAP investigation “usually” results in one of several categorizations, according to officials. • Airborne clutter • Natural atmospheric phenomena • U.S. government or industry developments • Foreign adversary systems • Unexplained sightings that merit further investigation The term “UAP” is used when all other explanations can be ruled out — sightings that lead to further investigations. While officials are unsure the exact threat posed by UAP, they’re sure these mysterious aerial vessels clutter the air, creating a risky environment for servicemen. The assessment states UAP would represent a national security chalwing small at the bottom: lenge “if they are foreign adversary collection platforms or provide evidence - nails • Marianne a potentialHawkins adversary- hair has developed either a -breakson - Hair • Patricia Elliot Sathrough or disruptive technology,” Bray confirmed on May 17 that the United States is not aware of any foreign adversary capable of moving objects without any discernible means of propulsion. It’s also highly unlikely that UAPs are domestic experiments as well, considering the consistency of reports over decades and the seemingly-advanced technology. “We have black technologies and capabilities that are not publicly known,” Howland said, “But if you look at what these [UAP] are known to do, these crafts can go up to 13,000 miles per hour.” Some unidentified crafts have been clocked

just more than six times the speed of the fastest jet aircraft in the world. The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird reaches Mach 3.3, more than 2,500 miles per hour, and the follow-up SR-72 is currently in development. “I believe it’s supposed to go about 4,500 miles per hour,” Howland said. “So to say this is next-generation technology doesn’t cover it. It’s so far beyond what we are even currently developing that I think it just becomes kind of mind boggling, frankly.” Bray and Moultrie told lawmakers that they can generally categorize UAPs as unmanned aircraft and physical objects.

Friend or foe? Fact or fiction? The Pentagon tasked itself to confirm the unknown and unknowns, Moultrie said. Of those unknowns, however, is the consider-

ation of civilian reports in official UAP analysis. “There are fakers and there are people who are trying to make money off this,” Howland said. “There are people who don’t have good intentions.” Of the 15,000 people in California that have recorded their experiences with the UFO Reporting Center, many are convinced they spotted something unexplainable and spectacular. Mendez is the administrator of Southern California UFOs and Aliens Facebook page. While he admittedly said he’s one to listen to conspiracy theories, which is evident on the social media page, Mendez told the Coast News he knew these inexplicable flying objects were real before the government confirmed it in 2017, and again in 2020. Mendez does believe that UAP do not pose a threat to human life and

stem from a source off-planet, but also agrees there’s harmful information too readily available that only muddies the already murky waters of this unexplained phenomena. Others have argued that UAP indeed pose a direct threat to those who have crossed paths with these bizarre entities. A 2017-leak of information from Luis Elizondo, a former intelligence agent, found that researchers had studied people for any physiological changes after some claimed to experience physical effects following their UAP encounters. “One of their precursor programs that looked at UAP does show that there were some pretty remarkable, essentially radiation poisoning effects on people who have had close encounters,” Howland said. While Howland agrees UAP are a threat to aviators, she looks forward to more experts entering the conversation. “We’re going to need to bring in minds that have a diverse view, people who are able to look at the epidemiology of these encounters, the human health

impacts and as well as the philosophical questions it brings up, and the religious questions," Howland said. “It could potentially, depending on the answer, have a big impact on our society as a whole.”

Advocating for truth Whether a “truther” or one advocating for government transparency, UAP have become a bridging issue in the evolving conversation. Regardless of what UAP are, or the threat they pose, they are “real,” a fact that Howland anguished over when trying speak on the topic with young intelligence professionals. “It could be U.S. black tech, it could be a foreign adversary, it could be this weird other category, it doesn’t matter,” Howland said. “Because the bottom line is our airspace was unsafe for our military aviators, and so I was really frustrated that people weren’t taking this seriously.” Howland is the monitoring and evaluation manager and disaster response team lead at the Free Wheelchair Mission and she has a master’s of public health with a focus in epidemiology.

Meet New Chamber Member Nature Unplugged Inspiring Wellness in the Digital Age

San Diego native Sebastian Slovin and his wife Sonya Mohamed are both health, wellness and education professionals who started realizing how much technology was becoming a barrier to people – especially kids – getting out and enjoying the outdoors. They also realized how much it was affecting their own lives. That’s when they decided to start Nature Unplugged in 2012 to offer coaching, presentations, day trips and retreats to help people develop healthy boundaries with technology and reconnect with nature. “Essentially everything we do is focused on giving people the tools to improve their mental health in a world full of digital distractions and challenges,” Sebastian explains. “Our aim is to help individuals, families, educators and organizations break free from the clutches of technology overuse, reconnect with nature and engage with life and work in a whole new way.” “This is personal to me,” he continues. “I really struggled as an adolescent dealing with the loss of my dad to suicide. Nature became a refuge for me. My time in the ocean and in nature helped me tremendously and probably saved my life. I knew from a young age that I wanted to do work that had to do with getting people out into na-

They chose Encinitas for their office location because it is their very favorite place in San Diego and has such a wonderful wellness culture. In addition to offering wellness coaching, presentations, guided outdoor adventures and retreats, Nature Unplugged offers free monthly community hikes and scholarship opportuni-

ties for their services. Their upcoming Hike-A-Thon in October will raise money for scholarships so that they can impact even more people in the community. “I love seeing a switch flip in teens who were initially resistant to get outside,” he says. “Once they get to the park or the beach, they become as engaged with nature as they would be with tech. I feel good knowing that nature is now a resource that they can rely on for the rest of their life.” For more information about Nature Unplugged, Hike-A-Thon and their services go to www.natureunplugged.com.

Howland’s current role as a UAP advocate was not something she planned. While volunteering for Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, Howland and a cohort young professionals attended a series of speakers, one being former White House Chief of Staff John Podesta, who penned the prologue to Leslie Kean’s “UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record.” That fellowship is now housed at Foreign Policy for America, called the NextGen Initiative — a group of “tomorrow’s intelligence and foreign affairs leaders,” Howland said. However, she couldn’t get her colleague to have a serious conversion about these phenomena. So, she became dedicated to spreading the word. “To be a UAP transparency activist is really just committing to follow the evidence, wherever that leads,” Howland said. “Not coming up with any preconceived notions about what the phenomenon is or isn't, but making sure that the government is following up appropriately and is protecting our citizens and our service members.”

ith the price of gas hovering at or above $6 a gallon, a staycation might be in your summer plans. Or perhaps you’ll be hosting out-oftowners because, after all, where better to come in the summer than San Diego? Combine these reasons with the popularity of the recently released “Top Gun: Maverick,” and there’s good reason to check out some of the county’s sites where this blockbuster movie was shot: High Pie — Oceanside.

And trust me, I’m not alone. Jean Gillette is a freelance writer thinking of having her legs tattooed to replicate a road map of Southern California. Contact her at jean@coastnewsgroup.com.

Known locally as the Top Gun House, this historic Victorian built by Dr. Henry Graves in 1887 is now home to the recently opened High Pie, which sells mini-gluten-free pies with dipping sauces. The 500-square-foot cottage was the site of the love scene in the 1986 “Top Gun” between Maverick (Tom Cruise) and Charlie (Kelly McGillis). Accounts say that McGillis loved the house so much that she stayed there during filming. Originally built a few blocks away as a vacation home, the beautifully renovated abode sits on the property of the Mission Pacific Resort. The cottage is painted to look as it did in the movie, and on the inside: Top Gun memorabilia, including a refurbished Yamaha

What to drink in the morning cheers! north county

Y

ou’ve decided to enjoy some socially acceptable morning cocktails, but you’re not sure what to drink. Don’t worry. I’ve got you covered. And I have recipes, too! Wedding Day: Champagne might be the stereotype, but drink a radler (aka shandy) instead. It is going to be a long day, and you don’t want to be the bride or groomsman the guests remember for all the wrong reasons. The traditional radler is beer mixed 50/50 with a lemonade-style beverage and reached peak popularity during the early 1900s. The drink has seen a renaissance in recent years as more craft breweries put their spin on this classic beer. The light, sweet taste combined with a lower than normal percentage of alcohol makes it the perfect drink on the morning of the wedding. It will keep you refreshed, add a bit of oldworld charm to the festivi-

If you see it on the draft list, be sure to order it. Two Pitchers Brewing in the Bay Area exclusively offers radler-inspired beers in cans year-round. I’m partial to the Grapefruit Blood Orange Radler.

At a minimum, garnish with a celery stick and a toothpick of stuffed olives. Take it up a notch with a season and celery salt-spiced rim, a hunk of cheddar, a beef stick or crispy bacon (optional for veggie-friendly lifestyles), and a lemon and lime wedge. Take it to the next level with a shrimp tail, grilled asparagus stick, and a splash (or two) of Sriracha

sauce. Cheers! Bloody Mary

Ingredients: — 2 oz Locals Only vodka (Oceanside) — 4 to 6 oz Bloody Mary mix (Tomato juice, Worcestershire Sauce, onion salt, celery salt, garlic salt, black pepper, paprika, a squeeze of lime, a splash of hot sauce) Rub your lime wedge along the rim of the glass and rim with a blend of season and celery salt. Fill with ice. Add vodka and Bloody mix to a shaker with ice. Give it a light shake and strain it into the glass. Let the garnishing begin. If you add a slice of pizza, you’ve gone too far.

Gator by the Bay brings Mardi Gras to San Diego taste of wine frank mangio & rico cassoni

T

he Bon Temps Social Club’s Gator By The Bay Festival from May 5 to May 8 brought Bourbon Street to San Diego. With Blues music blaring, the smell of crawfish in the air, people dancing and a parade with beads being hurled into a crowd, participants at Spanish Landing Park experienced Mardi Gras as if it was Fat Tuesday. Taste of Wine was excited to attend and were even recruited to be help fling beads in the parade. After a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19, attendees had three years of festivities to make up for this year. Music played across seven stages with over 100 performances of non-stop music including blues, jazz, cajun, swing, salsa, country and zydeco. After showing up, we headed over to the Bourbon Street Stage to check out Euphoria Brass Band

(EBB). The band is an award-winning San Diego musical collective of seven members serving up a contemporary mix of old school New Orleans traditional brass band jazz, funky street beats and new school edginess with a West Coast feeling.

Bird Rock: Great view, tasty brew By Ryan Woldt

Where: Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, Torrey Pines, 2212 Carmel Valley Rd, Del Mar, CA 92104 Open: Mon-Thurs 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Closed Christmas Day What: Single-Origin Colombia Suyusama Program Tasting Notes: Sugar cane, baked peach, plum Price: $3 to $4.25 What I’m listening to: El Michels Affair, Piya Malik, “Khabi”

A

salty, wet morning mist greets me as I walk up to the Bird Rock Coffee Roasters overlooking a calm Los Penasquitos Lagoon and the iconic cliffs of Torrey Pines State Reserve. I time my visit well and walk right up to the counter. There will be a line about a dozen deep, albeit a fast-moving one, for the next 45 minutes. They offer a light roast single-origin batch brew from Colombia.* Yes, please. I’ve been on a bit of a Colombia coffee kick lately. The flavors balance neatly between sweet and bitter. The coffee is clean and open. Employees do the “Barista Shuffle” — the smooth dance of the feet — as they reach around for a mug, pull an espresso, steam milk, or slide over to take an order. To my right, a wall of

coffee and branded merchandise fills an entire wall of shelves. To the left, indoor seating is available at the bar in the window and in a lounge area with a couch. In the back, a separate seating area offers the illusion of privacy without wasting space or blocking out sight lines of the lagoon. A mural of a coffee plant extends floor to ceiling. I find a seat outside at a two-person hightop near the door. The coffee is solid. It is a working-class cup of coffee with some round

raisin sweetness and some sugared fruit that comes out near the end of the sip, more so after the coffee has had a chance to cool. The clouds are lightly sprinkling, but I’m under an overhang. I’d stay here, but the line has gotten long enough to extend outside and wrap into my personal space giving me anxiety. Where are all these people coming from? I never realized how much traffic came down this vein of blacktop, splitting La Jolla and Del Mar in two. Teslas and Porsches

line the street. Trucks rumble by. Community members appear from around the building corner, having walked down from the townhomes in the hills behind the cafe. I relocate to a stool at the bar near the street, braving the light rain. Between the stools, high tables, and lounge chairs under umbrellas, there is plenty of seating strategically arranged so everyone can view the ocean. Bird Rock Torrey Pines is open until 7:00 PM, and I bet this is a pretty sweet spot to watch the sunset while sipping a hot chocolate. On the deck, other customers are part of the experience. Even with shoddy, early June weather, there are few empty seats. I take the last of my coffee back to the car, but instead of leaving, I sit facing the coast. With each sip, my coffee seems to be more flavorful. The clouds are getting lighter, putting the cliffs in stark relief, and I contemplate the day’s possibilities. *This Bird Rock Coffee scored 93-points from Coffee Review.

Pacific Rim mathletes defend state, national titles By Jordan P. Ingram

CARLSBAD — Several Pacific Rim Elementary student “mathletes” defended their state and national titles at this year’s virtual Perennial Math competition. Fifth-graders James Gentile, Olivier Weeda and Aaron Cooper — members of the school’s championship math team last year — and teammates Zachary Ross and Sophia Kim celebrated their second-straight state and national championships during a June 6 award ceremony in Carlsbad. Fellow Pacific Rim classmates Amal Ali, Caden Faciane, Annie Kim, Emi Furukawa, Maddox Lawrance took second place in the statewide team event and fifth place nationally. In the individual events, Gentile finished second place in the national finals at Perennial, followed by fellow students Sophia Kim (4th), Annie Kim (5th), Cooper (11th) and Weeda (13th). “It was an awesome experience and we could not have done it without Miss Ilene,” Gentile told The Coast News. “I enjoyed meeting with my friends and doing challenging math.” And that’s just a fraction of the awards and honors earned by members of the Pacific Rim math club, which is currently in its second year under the direction of parent, teacher and

Odd Files Period Crunch

In an effort to better educate the world about the human reproductive system, the “intimate wellness brand” Intimina has introduced Period Crunch, a breakfast cereal with uterus-shaped, raspberry-flavored pieces that will color the milk red, Oddity Central reported. Alongside the startling cereal shape and red milk, the cereal box will feature a diagram of the female reproductive system so that people can learn about its location and function. The company surveyed 2,000 adults and discovered that 48% of women are embarrassed to talk about their menstrual periods and 77% have never brought it up in their households. “Periods are a natural part of who we are,” said Dr. Shree Datta, a gynecologist with Intimina, “so it’s deeply concerning to hear that so many people remain uncomfortable discussing them when they are just another part of our health.” [Oddity Central, 6/3/2022] Hot Mail

So they were just writing random things. It wasn’t meant to appear on screen. I hope that Manchester United fans weren’t offended by it,” she added. [Reuters, 5/24/2022]

Orwell, Ohio, police called the Ashtabula County Sheriff’s Office to help them corral a drunk driving suspect on May 14 —but it wasn’t your typical “reckless operator,” WOIO-TV reported. Twenty-one-year-old Nathan Miller was charged with OVI — operating a vehicle while intoxicated — for driving his horse-drawn Amish buggy on the wrong side of Hague Road. Officers were able to get in front of the horse and buggy, but the rig didn’t stop; it turned out Miller was passed out in the driver's seat. While deputies tried to get control of the horse, it crashed into a patrol car. Miller was treated for injuries at the scene. [WOIO, 5/19/2022] Oops

In Parks, Louisiana, a rendering of the Last Supper in the St. Joseph Catholic Church has all the usual elements — plus one regionally iconic extra: a bottle of McIlhenny’s Tabasco hot sauce, conveniently placed in front of one of Jesus' disciples. Pastor Nicholas DuPre said after he arrived in the parish in 2019, he heard from Shane Bernard, a curator and historian from McIlhenny, who wondered if the “urban myth” about the painting was true. When DuPre confirmed the product placement, Bernard sent a large commemorative collector’s bottle of Tabasco. Christie Hebert, the artist, told the Daily Advertiser that she was asked not to make the painting an exact replica of the DaVinci original; the priest at that time “wanted to make it unique to our area,” she said.

Vicky Umodu of Colton, California, was thrilled to find two free sofas and a matching chair on Craigslist for her new house. She was skeptical, but the owners explained that a family member had passed away, and they were liquidating the possessions, ABC7 News reported on June 2. When she got the furniture home, she felt some kind of item in one of the cushions and thought it might be a heating pad, but upon further inspection, she found several envelopes filled with cash. “I was just telling my son, ‘Come, come, come!’I was screaming, ‘This is money! I need to call the guy!’” Umodu found a staggering $36,000 in total. She returned the cash to the family, who told her they had found other hidden stashes in the deceased man's home, but not such large amounts. As a gesture of thanks, they gave Umodu $2,200, money she needed for a refrigerator. “I was not expecting a dime from him, I was not,” she said.

Summer F un & Opportunities

Five ways homeschooling provides freedom In the past two years, a record number of families chose to homeschool because they lost confidence in their school’s ability to meet their child’s academic, social and emotional needs. Many parents discovered that they appreciate the newly found freedom to select their curriculum, choose their daily schedule, and incorporate their own personal and family values. Here are five ways homeschooling provides more freedom. FREEDOM TO CHOOSE WHAT WORKS One of the most significant benefits of homeschooling is selecting a custom curriculum that works best for the student. Parents can choose a curriculum that better aligns with their child’s learning style, interest level, and values. The time spent learning together allows parents to know better and cultivate their child’s talents and interests and quickly respond to learning differences or challenges. Parents know their children best and are invested in their learning and progression.

longer constrained by the daily schedule of traditional school hours. Families may choose to set up a homeschooling routine that mirrors the local school, but their lives no longer revolve around the school's calendar and daily hours. Families find they have more freedom for educational travel, field trips, exploring hobbies, and extracurricular activities such as athletics, music, theater, robotics, and more. FREEDOM TO FOCUS Homeschooling is more focused, and there is less time spent traveling to and from school. With a ratio of one parent to one student, there is no wasted time on classroom and behavior management or busywork. Students can often accomplish what it would take all day to achieve at school in a few hours. Homework can be completed during the school day, creating more freedom for play and exploration in the afternoon.

FREEDOM OF RELIGION Religious beliefs and family values are important to many parents. Homeschooling allows parents to FREEDOM OF FLEXIBLE incorporate their religious SCHEDULING beliefs, values, and characFamilies who homes- ter education into their daichool their children are no ly teaching.

FREEDOM TO PROTECT Most parents do not want their children exposed to the world's pressures until they are mature enough to understand and process them. Parents want choice when their children are introduced to social realities. Homeschooling can allow parents to determine what their children are exposed to and when. Parents can take steps to keep their children physically safe, and children can feel secure. While these freedoms make homeschooling and independent study more enjoyable, they also make students well-prepared for college and life beyond. Students who are homeschooled perform well on standardized tests, excel in college, and become self-directed learners. The Classical Academies is an organization of award-winning, tuition-free, public charter schools serving 5,200+ students in North San Diego County. The schools have been partnering with parents for quality education since 1999. Campuses are now enrolling for the 20222023 school year. For more information, visit www.classicalacademy.com or call 760842-8000.

Inspiring curious minds to think deeply and live courageously The Rhoades School has been proud to serve academically advanced children in the San Diego area since 1980. We offer a dynamic educational journey of discovery and exploration for students who are intellectually curious, creative, and eager to embrace new academic challenges and opportunities. The journey begins at our new preschool campus for children ages 2 1/2 to Pre-K. Here, we prepare young minds not just for school, but for life. We nurture our students and help them feel welcome, safe, and included. This is the key to giving them the confidence they need to grow, solve problems, and take risks. Our curriculum is a challenging yet balanced mix of reading, writing, math, and science infused with the study of art, music, and social skills, designed to inspire our young visionaries to explore beyond the basics. Our Lower School campus, for students in transitional kindergarten to fifth grade, is known for academic excellence, personalized attention, and strong foundational partnerships between parents, teachers, students and staff.

We focus on social-emotional learning by providing a safe and inviting environment where students feel comfortable, and are motivated and ready to learn. Particular attention is paid to the one-of-a-kind needs and passions of gifted students. And our rigorous Middle School, for sixth to eighth graders, prepares advanced learners for success in high school and the years that follow. Core course offerings provide students with a strong foundation in English, math, science and social studies, and are enhanced by invigorating elective courses that focus on broadening educational experiences. Our goal is to ensure that each student is working to their greatest potential, and go on to become competent, knowledgeable, and discerning individuals in school, at home, and in their community. Regardless of their age, The Rhoades School approach recognizes that students’ long-term success comes from more than innate talent. It must be combined with focused effort in order to achieve noteworthy results. We develop a growth mindset in our students by

encouraging them to take on challenges and view mistakes as opportunities to grow, learn, and refine their skills. Our students learn that a less-than-perfect test score is an indication that additional work is needed; they do not interpret a grade as a reflection of their overall level of intelligence, talent, or ability. This leads them to become intrinsically motivated and less dependent on validation from others. So, for instance, instead of telling a student, “You are smart,” we might say, “That was really hard, and your effort paid off!” It helps children see value in the effort they put into the things they do. Instead of “You’re a natural at that,” we say things such as, “I like watching you do that!” This conveys approval of an activity they enjoy and encourages further practice. Put simply, The Rhoades School inspires curious minds to think deeply and live courageously. It’s what guides us in the classroom, and what will guide your child throughout their life.
