BY EMILY SORENSEN The Poway Unified School District Board of Education will be making its final decision on a district election map tonight (Thursday).

The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. at the district office, 15250 Avenue of Science in Carmel Mountain Ranch.

At the October meeting, the board selected two maps out of 11 eligible maps presented to them. A total of 18 maps were submitted for the October meeting; three of the maps were not population balanced and were therefore disqualified and four other maps were submitted past the original Oct. 5 deadline.

Those four maps will be considered by the members of the board at tonight’s meeting, as well as 13 additional maps that have been submitted since the meeting.

All of the submitted maps are available for viewing at tinyurl.com/PUSDmaps.

The original maps selected by the board members in October were maps 109 and 112. Map 112 was the most gerrymandered of all the maps submitted, allowing each of the five board members to be in their own district. Map 109 featured four of the board members sharing two districts, due to living in relatively close proximity to each other in Rancho Peñasquitos, and board member Kimberley Beatty, who lives in Sabre Springs, in her own district.

Comments on the maps made by members of the public have been posted on the district’s election district website as well as map links.

Several members of the public commented negatively on map 112.

“Please note my extreme disappointment with map 112, which is clearly gerrymandered to protect specific board members with a voting block that has led to negative results for our school district for the past few years (TJ Zane and Michelle O’Connor-Ratcliff),” wrote Gabriela Dow in an email. “That map 112 was even presented SEE MAP, A11

Sunday’s Wine Aid fundraiser to help fire victims up north

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Knowing first-hand how devastating wildfires can be, nearly two dozen San Diego County wineries are donating their vintages to a fundraiser to help Northern California wineries and their workers impacted by recent fires.

Wine Aid 2017 will be held from 1 to 4 p.m.

Sunday, Nov. 12 at Bernardo Winery, 13330 Paseo del Verano Norte, Rancho Bernardo.

There will be 23 wineries, six restaurants plus V’s Coffee Shop and Manzanita Roasting Co. — both based at Bernardo Winery — providing the wines, food and non-alcoholic beverages. Event organizer Samantha Nawrocki said everything is being donated by the participating businesses.

There will also be a silent auction featuring items like event tickets, jewelry, wine and accessories, plus live music performed by singer and acoustic guitarist Kevin Begin.

Tickets are $50 per person for wine and food tasting if purchased online by 10 a.m. Sunday or $60 at the event (cash or check only). The designated driver ticket is $25 (food tasting plus craft coffee and water). Purchase tickets online at tinyurl.com/wine-aid-2017.

The participating wineries are Altipiano Winery, Beach House Winery, Belle Marie Winery, Bernardo Winery, BK Cellars, Campo Creek Vineyards Tasting Room, Cordiano Winery, Espinosa Winery, Forgotten Barrel, Highland Valley Vineyards, Keys Creek Winery, Koi Zen Cellars, La Finquita Winery, Old Survey Vineyards, Principe di Tricase Winery, Ramona Ranch Winery, San Pasqual Winery, Screaming Chief, Stehleon Winery, Vesper Vineyards, Woof’n Rose Winery and ZXQ Vineyards.

Food providers will include Cafe Merlot, A Delight of France and RXBar. According to Nawrocki, who said the fundraiser was her idea, 100 percent of money raised — all tax deductible — will be divided among two nonprofit

organizations, the Sonoma County Grape Growers Association and Sonoma Humane Society.

The association has established a relief fund to help winery workers and their families in Sonoma, Napa and Santa Rosa displaced by the fires. The humane society is offering medical attention to animals affected by the fire and working to reunite pets with their families.

“We wanted to help out because 10 years ago we were affected and survived fire,” she said. “We wanted to give back. They have not experienced the level (of fire) we have. This is their first major fire.”

Nawrocki, Bernardo Winery’s marketing director, said wineries and their workers are “like family” and it is times like this that they need to help each other out.

“It’s really been important to our family to be in the vineyards and the cellar, with our guys and gals who work so hard to help produce the wine,” said Ross Rizzo, president and third-generation winemaker at Bernardo Winery. “People forget how much work it takes to make wine — early mornings, scorching heat and long days, to get wine to table.

“We appreciate the workers and would like to help them up north, wine country to wine country,” he said.

Bernardo Winery, established in 1889, is the oldest continuously-producing winery in Southern California. It has been owned and operated by the Rizzo family since 1927.

“I would like to raise at least $10,000 to $15,000, I think that is doable,” Nawrocki said.

She said the participating wineries will sell bottles of the wines they provide during the fundraiser in the Bernardo Winery Tasting Room on Sunday until 6 p.m., but added those proceeds are not going to the fire victims.

For questions, contact Nawrocki at 858-487-1866 ext. 115 or sam@bernardowinery.com.

4S Ranch filmmaker is winning awards during his second career Mark Vizcarra is a retired Navy fighter pilot

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK A short film about a 114-year-old hanging of an Old West gunman convicted of murdering a teenage boy is earning 4S Ranch resident Mark Vizcarra film industry accolades.

Vizcarra wrote, directed and produced “Once Guilty, Now Innocent, Still Dead.” It recently won three awards at the GI Film Festival San Diego, including two for Vizcarra — “Best Narrative Short” and “Best Film Made by a Veteran or Service Member.”

The third award, for “Best Actor,” went to Larry Poole, who portrayed the accused Tom Horn and co-produced the film with Vizcarra under Poole’s Gem Canyon Productions company.

“I was excited (to win because) it’s always fun to be recognized,” Vizcarra said. “It was a lot of hard work, but not done alone. I had a great cast and crew.”

The western is about the mock retrial of Horn 90 years after his execution in Wyoming, which led to the determination that he was innocent of the murder. Vizcarra said he learned about the case through a New York Times article.

4S Ranch resident Mark Vizcarra is an award-winning filmmaker and former Navy fighter pilot.

It was one of Vizcarra’s two films selected for competition in this year’s film festival. Vizcarra said he actually thought his other entry, “Forgotten Hero,” had a better chance of winning something, but all the honors went to “Once Guilty.”

Vizcarra’s wife, Tandy, accepted the awards on her husband’s behalf at the Oct. 21 ceremony because he had previously committed to being in Houston to promote “Forgotten Hero,” a film about Royce Williams, who was nominated for the Medal of Honor six decades after protecting a carrier battle

screenplays while in middle school and pursuing a career in the film industry was something he always wanted to do, even while in the military. The name of his production company — based out of his 4S Ranch home — reflects his military past.

“In the Navy, when I flew fighters, you have to (constantly) train in dogfighting because it is a perishable skill,” Vizcarra said.

“Even if our mission was not a dogfight, we would save gas to do a dogfight (afterwards). To do a fair fight you have to have the same air SEE FILMMAKER, A12

group from seven Soviet fighters during the Korean War. This film was produced through Vizcarra’s company, Speed & Angels Productions, a name that acknowledges his other love — flying.

Becoming a professional filmmaker is a second career for the 57-year-old Vizcarra. He said that as a child he had two career aspirations — filmmaking and becoming a Navy pilot.

The retired Navy commander served 21 years on active duty as a pilot who flew more than 2,500 hours in the A-4 Skyhawk, F-14

He is on track to graduate with his second Bachelor of Science degree — this time in digital film making — in January from the LA Film School.

Centenarian still plays bridge six days a week Al Nadel says the game “keeps your mind busy and sharp.”

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Centenarian Alfred “Al” Nadel says he has had “an exciting life, I enjoyed it and I’d like to start it all over.”

The longtime Rancho Bernardan recently celebrated his 100th birthday with not one, but two celebrations.

One was with family and friends. The other was with his fellow players belonging to an Escondido bridge club.

Nadel said he still plays the card game six days a week, something he started doing with the Escondido group soon after he and his late wife, Ruth, moved to Rancho Bernardo from San Diego’s Fletcher Hills neighborhood in 1979.

He has been playing bridge since childhood, starting around age 7 or 8 when his mom and aunts occasionally needed a fourth player.

“They got me to play,” Nadel said.

As for why Nadel has continued playing bridge for more than nine decades? “It keeps your mind busy and sharp,” he said.

Keeping physically active is another thing Nadel said he has enjoyed doing. He played golf for many years and up to age 94 could be seen playing in tennis matches at the Oaks North tennis courts.

Travel is another thing that Nadel said he and his wife enjoyed doing.

“We traveled all over the world,” he said, adding Italy was among his favorite destinations.

The couple, who met while Nadel was a student at St. John’s University in Brooklyn, was married for 69 years, until Ruth’s death six years ago. They have two children, six grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

He said it was due to their daughter living in the Bay Area and son

ARLEEN GIMBEL

Alfred "Al" Nadel at one of his 100th birthday celebrations. living in Phoenix that the couple left his native New York City in order to relocate to California in 1969.

Nadel said he was born and raised in Brooklyn.

At age 2, he and his family moved into the first steam-heated apartment in the Lower East Side.

His first career was as a professional musician, with Nadel playing saxophone, clarinet and flute. But after traveling around with some bands for awhile, Nadel said he realized that was “not the life I wanted.” So he decided to attend college in order to become a certified public accountant.

Years later Nadel said took over his wife’s family business of manufacturing

hand-carved picture frames for museums and art galleries. When he decided to retire, they sold the business and moved to California.

But retirement did not last long.

After spending several months of his first retirement playing golf, Nadel said “I got bored” and bought a telephone answering service in Escondido. His second retirement occurred in the late 1980s.

Nadel lived in the couple’s Oaks North home until last year, when he moved to Poway to reside in an independent living unit at Seacrest Village at Rancho Bernardo Nellie Cohn Residence.

As for the key to his longevity? Nadel attributed it to “luck.”

Volunteer group gives veterans final dignity at their funerals

BY EMILY SORENSEN A group of volunteers, both veterans and non-veterans, have been providing rifle salutes at military funerals.

The Joint Honor Guard, headed up by retired Marine Corps veteran and Poway resident Joe “Gunner” Vaineharrison, was started in December 2016.

The group is chartered by Poway Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7907 and supposed by both the Poway VFW and the Poway American Legion Post 479. There are 14 members in the group, including Vaineharrison’s wife, Michele, and son Wyatt. While members do not have to be veterans, they must be at least 16 years old to handle the rifles.

Vaineharrison said that contrary to popular belief, rifle salutes are not automatically provided by the military at all veteran funerals.

“Most (veterans) don’t get rifle salutes unless they retired (from the military), were killed in action or were famous,” he said.

Vaineharrison said he and his fellow volunteers feel that every veteran deserves a rifle salute at his or her funeral.

“The mission of the Joint Honor Guard is to provide funeral honors and assistance to all veterans and their families during their time of

We will always conduct our missions, in humbled reverence, to the best of our ability,” said Vaineharrison.

Vaineharrison said the group has performed “quite a few” missions since its creation last December, at Fort Rosecrans, Dearborn Memorial Park and private cemeteries.

“We take our obligation very seriously,” he said. “It’s about honoring the veteran and his service. It also provides a form of closure for the family, saying goodbye to their loved one.”

Vaineharrison said his group makes sure to ask questions about the veteran before a mission. “We don’t want to just show up. We want to know who we are honoring.”

Vaineharrison was active in the Marine Corps for 22 years and retired in San Diego, where he met his wife. He is a member of the Poway VFW and the American Legion. He is also the chaplain for the VFW and has presided over military funerals, he said.

Many of their missions come from word-of-mouth, Vaineharrison said, but information on the group is also available on the VFW and American Legion websites.

Those interested in joining the group or requesting their services can contact jhg7907@aol.com.

More projects focusing on youths is Kiwanis president’s goal Nancy Sargent is leading the Los Rancheros club for second time

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Increasing service opportunities for members and starting new projects are among the goals of the Kiwanis Club of Los Rancheros’ president, Nancy Sargent.

One of the new endeavors Sargent said she would like the Kiwanians to organize this year is a free bicycle and child safety seat event. It will be held so children can learn about bicycle safety and those proficient in installing car seats can teach parents how to do it properly.

She said the latter topic is one that aligns with Kiwanis International programs since it produces a sticker for car seats on which a child’s information is to be written so if in an accident first responders can easily access it.

Another program she wants the club to begin is Bringing Up Grades — or BUG — that encourages students at local schools to achieve academically.

“It is a long-standing Kiwanis program that encourages each child to do better in school,” Sargent said. The club would give students who demonstrate improvement certificates and incentives.

This is Sargent’s second time as club president. Her first was during 2005-06. Sargent said she has been a Kiwanian since 1989, when she was manager of Clark’s Stationary in Rancho Bernardo.

“Mr. (Lyman) Clark thought it was a good idea for me to join a service organization,” she said. Since he was a Rotarian and she had friends who were Kiwanians Sargent said she joined the club that sometimes has also been known as the Rancho Bernardo Kiwanis Club.

The club has reverted back to regularly its original name — Los Rancheros — to better reflect that its members come from many communities, she said.

As for why she continued as a Kiwanian even after the store closed, Sargent said, “I think I just happen to have a desire to help my community. I’m very active in my church and

Nancy Sargent, 2017-18 Kiwanis Club of Los Rancheros president.

Kiwanis is a great organization that does a lot for children.”

That work also entails helping out at the Ronald McDonald House, which the club has been doing for more than a decade.

Among the Kiwanians’ projects is decorating the facility’s common spaces to bring a little holiday cheer to the families staying there each winter.

“It’s a big undertaking, but a lot of fun,” she said. “A lot of the work is really rewarding. Since the families are away from home they appreciate something special for the holidays.”

The Kiwanians focus on areas such as the living room, kitchen, dining area and two patios, but also provide

Christmas trees and ornaments so families can decorate their private quarters if they desire, she said.

Four times a year the members also prepare and serve a meal to around the 100 or so people staying at the house.

Kiwanis has become a family activity for Sargent and her husband, Warren, who joined in 1996, is a past club president and former division lieutenant governor. Together they are very involved with the Kiwins program — a high school group sponsored by Kiwanis International — that has chapters at Rancho Bernardo High and campuses throughout the county, especially in the South Bay, Otay Ranch and Chula Vista.

Kiwanis’ other high school program — Key Club — is at many local campuses and Los Rancheros sponsors clubs at Rancho Bernardo, Mt. Carmel, Westview and Del Norte high schools. In addition to RB High’s Kiwins it also sponsors the Builders Club at Black Mountain Middle School, a Kiwanis service organization for younger students.

She said the youth versions provide “more young people the opportunity to learn leadership skills.”

She said the 30 members are meeting on a new day and at a new location. They now gather at 7 a.m. on the first, third and occasional fifth Wednesdays of each month at the Lutheran Church of the Incarnation, 16889 Espola Road in Poway.

Annual dues are $175 and there is a $10 per meeting fee to cover the breakfast. For details, go to losrancheroskiwanis.org.

“Everybody is concerned (about finances) and pinching pennies so mostly it is a continental breakfast and on occasion a full breakfast to keep the cost down,” she said about the new meeting schedule and venue.

She said the club is always looking for new members and the current membership comes from Rancho Bernardo, 4S Ranch, Rancho Peñasquitos and north Poway. Sargent said her family has lived in their Poway home on the border of Rancho Bernardo for 36 years.

Del Norte High honors 30 world language students

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Del Norte High School recently honored 30 students through its monthly Character Recognition Program.

This second group of students for the 2017-18 academic year were selected by teachers and staff members in the world languages department. The students were recognized on Oct. 24 “because of their outstanding character, attitude and contributions to their classrooms,” school officials said. “They have influenced both their peers and teachers in a positive way.”

The honored students were: Freshmen Stephan Abrams, Angelica “Angie” Asadi, Gabriela Caballero, Trevor Callow, Vivian Chung, Alison Hale, Jacob Kaimer,

James McKinnon, Yasmeen Rahhal, Abigail Rich, Serena Xie and Jacob Yi. Sophomores Maya Bailey, Ajai Banaiah, Stephen “Kyle” Domagas, Phoebe Farnsworth, Kaylene Gell, Greg Guevarra, Christian Mariager, Nicholas Smith Tanner Tollestrup and Abdiel Velaso Jarquin.

Juniors Siham Bougour, Jordan Carusa, Taro Harmon, Arundati Nayyar and Ashley Rankin.

Seniors Diego Cahua and Taylor Lesson.

There was one additional student honored who did not have a media release on file with the school, officials said.

The recognition program is sponsored by the Del Norte PTSA and Del Norte Foundation.

Each month another department on campus will nominate students for recognition.

should reside within RBHS boundaries.

“In the history of the school district, RB has not been represented,” Lim wrote. “We have never had a school board member from Rancho Bernardo and dividing the Rancho Bernardo neighborhoods so they are voting for the reps for Del Norte and Poway High Schools makes it even less likely that an RB resident will be elected.”

Deborah Holcomb also wrote that the high school boundaries should be used as the election districts. “Current trustee boundaries are being drawn up by an outside group using 2010 census data that does not include thousands of new homes in 4S (Ranch) and Del Sur,” she wrote.

“This could have a negative effect on the representation of many PUSD schools, but it is looking like RBHS in particular will be impacted the most.”

The board members must select a map at tonight’s meeting. From there, the selected map will go to the County Committee on School District Organization for another hearing and vote. The committee can reject the board’s map choice and choose another.

The selected map will be used in two elections: the first three trustee areas in 2018 and the remaining two in 2020. The district trustee areas will be redrawn in 2021 using new census data.

for serious consideration and actually moved forward to the point of being a preferred option is a terrible example of poor decision-making.”

Melissa Depweg-Borra also made a comment registering her dislike of map 112, saying “I want to voice my concern over map 112 as it’s been stated by many parties that it’s the most gerrymandered map to ensure all sitting board members are in separate districts. This should not be the focus of choosing the maps.” She continued to say that she hoped each board member “votes with integrity and chooses a map that provides equal representation from all parts of the Poway Unified School District and not out of personal gain.”

Several other commenters requested that the high school boundaries be used as the election districts, especially in regards to Rancho Bernardo High School.

Joanne Stohs commented that she felt that RBHS and its feeder schools are not represented fully on the proposed maps, which was not fair, and Maria Catherine Lim said in an email that people who reside in Rancho Bernardo should be able to vote for the representative for their own kids’ high schools and that people who run for the school board and will represent RBHS

FROM VETERANS DAY, A1 Reserve spanned from 1978 to 2005. He has been a U.S. magistrate judge for the Southern District of California since 2009. His military career included being the commanding officer of the First Marine Expeditionary Force Headquarters Group during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He was the staff judge advocate to the commanding general of the First Marine Expeditionary Force from 2003 to 2005, and director of the Law and Order Task Force in Iraq in 2008. During the latter he worked directly for Gen. David Petraeus, commander of all troops in Iraq.

Veterans Day, originally known as Armistice Day when first commemorated in 1919 to mark the end of World War I by proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson, is held on Nov. 11 because that date a year earlier was when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany occurred at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Nov. 11 became a legal holiday to celebrate Armistice Day in the U.S. in 1938 and was renamed Veterans Day in 1954 to honor all

war veterans in the aftermath of World War II and the Korean Conflict.

In conjunction with Veterans Day, members of the Major Abraham J. Baum VFW Post 7766 will distribute the Buddy Poppy outside of Vons and Albertsons in Rancho Bernardo and Ralphs in 4S Ranch from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and at the ceremony on Saturday.

While the poppies are free, the RB veterans will accept free-will donations to support their programs and philanthropic efforts. In the past these have included volunteering at and providing financial support to the annual Stand Down in Balboa Park, which helps homeless veterans; the local Veterans Affairs hospital; providing assistance to veterans and active duty military in emergency situations; and sponsoring Junior ROTC units at Westview and Orange Glen high schools.

The Buddy Poppy was inspired by the poem “In Flander’s Field” written by Canadian Col. John McCrae during World War I. Since 1923, the poppies have been assembled by disabled veterans and those in-need at Veterans Administration hospitals, who receive financial assistance in return for their work.

Del Norte, Oak Valley cyber teams honored at national conference

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK The cyber security teams at Del Norte High School and Oak Valley Middle School were recently recognized by the International Security Systems Association “for being pioneers and the future of cyber security,” officials said.

This is the first time ISSA has honored students at its national conference, which was held last month.

The teams, both coached by Paul Johnson, won their respective divisions last spring during the SoCal Cyber Cup Challenge.

The competition is a national model program focused on raising awareness of cyber security, education and empowering youth to play safe in the cyber world. It also teaches students the rules that major companies rely on for their security needs, which presents them potential career paths in the future, according to contest officials.

Led by computer experts, the students were given various cyber security breaches that they were to identify and defend in a

simulated real world scenario.

Del Norte won the varsity contest and received $4,000 for the team’s 2017-18 school year. It was also invited to participate in an elite Cyber Boot Camp over the summer. The team members were Akul Arora (captain), Daniel Chen, Kedwin Chen, Alex Guo, Lily Hu, Emily Park, Madeleine Tran and April Xie. Oak Valley won the junior varsity contest and also received $4,000 for its team. The team members were Arjun Ghoshal (captain), Kevin Hu, Bryant Jin, Cynthia Li, Justin Lin, Devam Shrivastava, Joshua Tan and Luya Wei. Over the course of several months more than 800 students from schools in San Diego, Imperial, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties competed last school year to reach the contest finals. The competition was sponsored by the Securing Our eCity Foundation in partnership with the National Defense Industrial Association, National University and Leidos.

His first short film — which was selected for last year’s GI Film Festival San Diego — was “The Flying Greek” based on the autobiographical book by the late Col.

Vizcarra was in post-production on his short film about Pisanos when he learned the 96-year-old was near death. Wanting Pisanos to see some of the film, he sent over the just-completed trailer.

“People that served deserve recognition,” Vizcarra said. “Steve was the most kind, gentlest man I’ve met.”

Other film projects Vizcarra has underway include one on the Wright brothers and their efforts to become the first to achieve human flight, and another about a small group of American pilots trying to survive insurmountable odds during World War II. Vizcarra said he would like to turn some of

these film projects — including “The Flying Greek” and “Once Guilty” — into full-length or episodic film projects. But getting financial backing for such endeavors is difficult, so the short films allow him to enter film festivals and create some buzz that could catch the attention of those in Hollywood. He is in negations to get “The Flying Greek” made into a full-feature production.

“I have been blessed,” Vizcarra said about his two career paths. “I used to teach my ROTC students that they must be humble and grateful and always try to serve outside yourself. The world does not revolve around you. So be humble with what you have.

“I have been lucky and blessed to have the opportunity to fulfill my dreams and passions,” he said.

Top Palomar Health exec retires The head of Palomar Health on Tuesday announced his retirement, effective immediately.

Robert “Bob” Hemker said he left his post as president and chief executive officer to spend more time with his family.

Hemker had been with the district for 16 years, including the past three years in the top position. He was making $824,680 a year, plus another $101,612 in other pay and benefits, according to district pubic releations manager Derryl Acosta.

His departure follows an August survey in which 97 percent of 1,300 unionized nurses at Palomar Health said they had no confidence in Hemker, contending that the operator of three hospitals in Escondido and Poway was beset by staffing and supply shortages, as well as high employee turnover.

The public health district’s board of directors has appointed Diane Hansen as interim president and CEO. Hansen has served as Palomar Health’s executive vice president of finance for the past three years and has more than 20 years of healthcare finance experience.

As interim president and CEO, Hansen will report to the board, serve as the senior executive for Palomar Health, and be

SDG&E unveils cameras to spot wildfires SAN DIEGO (CNS) - San Diego Gas & Electric Tuesday unveiled a system of 15 high-definition cameras that provide live-streaming views of some of the region's most fire-prone areas, including areas near Poway and Rancho Penasquitos.

The Alert SDG&E cameras offer live video; can show time-lapse scenarios; can pan, tilt and zoom; provide near-infrared capabilities for night vision; use machine vision to detect smoke; and can link to incident command centers to notify fire officials when a plume of smoke appears.

Local firefighters can control the cameras to help with planning, preparing and responding to wildfire emergencies.

“Adding this sophisticated set of cameras is providing us with a level of real-time situational awareness we've never had before,'' said Caroline Winn, SDG&E's CEO. “Not only are we able to zoom in on ignition points using multiple cameras, we can pinpoint almost instant fire proximity and

notify first responders. Having this information at our fingertips could provide critical minutes needed to protect people, power structures, and property.”

The cameras provided images of the 100-acre Church Fire, which broke out Oct. 21 in Campo, according to SDG&E. A similar system, developed by the University of Nevada-Reno, has been credited with helping authorities spot more than 300 blazes in Lake Tahoe and Nevada over the past two years.

SDG&E's cameras are aimed at Red Mountain near Fallbrook, multiple locations on Palomar Mountain, Volcan Mountain near Julian, Black Mountain near Rancho Penasquitos, Mount Woodson near Poway, two sites on Mount Laguna, Los Pinos Peak south of Pine Valley, Cowles Mountain in San Diego, Lyons Peak in Jamul and Otay Mountain east of Otay Mesa.

The public can access the camera views at alertwildfire.org/sdge.

GUEST COLUMN

Keeping our promises to veterans

BY SEN. JOEL ANDERSON alifornia must keep its promisse to those who have fought so bravely to defend our liberty. We owe it to our veterans who have selflessly served this great country to ensure that they receive the benefits and support they deserve when they come home. As your state senator, I’m committed to doing my part to ensure California keeps that promise.

Last month, Governor Brown signed several important bills that I authored or co-authored to help California keep its promisess to our veterans.

I introduced SB 156 to require the California Department of Veterans Affairs and the California National Guard to assist returning veterans and current members of the guard in filling out the necessary forms and paperwork to apply for U.S. citizenship.

Under current federal law, undocumented residents in the United States may receive expedited citizenship in exchange for service in our armed forces. For those who are not U.S. citizens, but have volunteered to serve and now bear the scars that come with that sacrifice, I am proud to have presented a bill that will make it easier for them to become U.S. citizens. No veteran who served our country should be deported and denied their benefits simply because they failed to fill out the correct paperwork when leaving the service.

I co-authored Sen. Richard Roth’s (D-Riverside) SB 339 to take San Diego’s use of veterans’ courts statewide. Veterans’ courts understand the special circumstances of United States military veterans charged with criminal offenses, particularly those who have suffered severe trauma in the course of their service. San Diego completed a 36-month assessment of its program in 2014 demonstrating reduced costs, reduced incarceration and improved educational outcomes. This bill will provide the state with data regarding the effectiveness of veterans’ courts and reveal any barriers there may be to establishing this model in all counties throughout the state.

Finally, the legislature is making an effort to raise awareness of the disproportionately high suicide rate among our veteran population. I was proud to join the bipartisan coalition from both the Senate and Assembly that introduced SCR 65, which proclaimed Sept. 3 to 9, as Military and Veteran Suicide Prevention Awareness Week in California.

If you or someone you know needs help, please call my office at 619-596-3136 and we will do everything in our power to connect you with the resources that are available to you.

Looking back over the legislative year, it’s been my honor to represent you in Sacramento and I’m proud of the work I and my team has accomplished. I hope you’ll join me at my final Legislative Open House as your state senator at 6 p.m. on Dec. 12 at Toyota of El Cajon. You’ll have the chance to share your ideas for improving our state and hear more about the successful legislation I worked on in 2017. For more information or to RSVP, visit: bit.ly/HLOH17.

Anderson, a Republican, represents the 38th Senate District, which includes Poway. He will term out of office at the end of next year.

OUR READERS WRITE What traffic laws?

Are traffic laws necessary any longer? In my opinion, they're not. No one abides by them and law enforcement certainly isn't doing anything to change people's attitudes.

Any car I pull up next to at a signal has a driver looking down in their lap. Half of them never know that the light has changed until someone reminds them. I used to give a little tap on the horn. Now I lean on it. I'm sick to death of people using their “idiot” phones while driving. I've been rear-ended by someone texting, so has my wife.

And why should they stop talking, texting and using their apps? The police aren't doing a thing.

Neither is the highway patrol.

Stop signs also mean nothing. Whenever I drive on Pomerado Road my sixth sense is working overtime. People coming out of neighborhood streets barely slow down for stop signs. I've had to slam on my brakes and save both cars because I'm the only one paying attention.

Enough, already.

CONSIDER THIS

BY BARRY CRONIN

The other side of the badge

T

he ancient Hebrews observed a ceremony in which a goat was ritually offered up in atonement for the sins of the people. These innocent creatures of God eventually became known as “scapegoats.”

We keep being told the police have a brutality problem. Some NFL players take knees every Sunday in protest. College and high school players do likewise. Children have declared our national anthem “racist.”

Celebrities and politicians rant. The media can hardly wait for the next minority shooting.

Fair enough. If this is something that concerns many, it should concern all.

But there is another brutality no one really wants to talk about. That is the brutality police experience every day at the hands of the people they have sworn to serve and protect.

Sometimes, the brutality is sudden. I was

no more than a few weeks into the job as a young beat cop back in 1975 when a stranger brandished a handgun, pointed it at me and pulled the trigger. He missed. Not by much.

Sometimes, the brutality is up close and personal. I was pounding another beat in 1976 at closing time on a busy Saturday night in downtown Manchester, New Hampshire. There were people standing all around in public with alcoholic drinks in their hands. Apparently, I was the main attraction that night as I was being methodically beaten senseless in the middle of the street by the toughest guy in town.

Thank God, I survived the fight. I made a couple bucks in court overtime and my assailant walked away with another misdemeanor plea for disorderly conduct.

Sometimes, the brutality is fatal. Not long after my epic beating, fellow Officer Ralph Miller was gunned down during a routine

CALIFORNIA FOCUS

BY THOMAS ELIAS

No doubt climate change hitting state

P

resident Trump might want to play ostrich about climate change and place his head in the sand near his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida whenever the subject comes up.

Regardless of his pose, there can no longer be any doubt that man-made, worldwide climate change is greatly affecting California and will affect it much more in the next half century unless there’s major action.

It’s not merely the five-year drought this state endured before record rains replenished water supplies last winter. It’s not merely the run of record-level temperatures much of the state experienced last summer or the blast furnace of this month’s deadly, devastating fires in the wine country and elsewhere. And it’s not just the threat of low-lying coastal areas suffering repeated and perhaps permanent

flooding if climate change persists.

Even more pernicious are future prospects if the warming trend continues to be worst in equatorial areas.

That could drive new waves of illegal immigration as residents of Central America, Mexico and the north coast of South America look northward, where the hotter temperatures California is already experiencing would look positively balmy.

That’s when the “invasion of illegals” so often invoked by many of the far-right politicians and pundits who also deny climate change could become very real. In fact, the Pentagon reportedly long ago began war-gaming a variety of scenarios for beating back waves of immigrants attempting to storm U.S. borders when extreme heat drives them from their homelands of thousands of years.

But this kind of extreme human event isn’t likely for decades to come.

The far more immediate prospect is outlined in a new National Climate Assessment leaked to the New York Times by federal scientists who feared Trump administration climate change deniers would suppress it.

The assessment, required by law every four years, was written in part by independent academics and scientists who have since left U.S. agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency and the Interior Department as the Trump appointees now heading them accelerate efforts to subvert the intended purposes of those organizations.

Here’s what the report sees for California, which may not be as seriously affected as some other parts of the world: Average annual

call for service. He was a Navy veteran and the father of a 1-year-old daughter. His killer was released from prison last year. Ralph’s daughter is now 42. She never knew her dad.

Sometimes, the brutality is deep, invisible and permanent. A young boy went missing and we located his body in the woods. By pure happenstance, I had been speaking with the killer just before the murder. My testimony helped place him at the scene of the crime and eventually behind bars. These were the days before counseling and assistance. I went home after work and got so drunk, I passed out and peed all over myself. I reported for duty the next day with a hangover and a broken heart. Forty-two years later, I still see that ruined little body.

Sometimes, the brutality comes back. My civilian police career ended the way it began, with a sudden crack of gunfire. A week prior to joining the Marine Corps in 1978, I watched as Captain Xiggoros dropped to the floor with a bullet in his back. He was assisting a citizen at the time.

Make no mistake. We are duty bound to investigate any and all allegations of brutality by the police against the people they have sworn to serve and protect. Cops may only exert the minimum force necessary. That said, it is neither fair nor right to summarily blame law enforcement for the faults and failures of society. Police are not responsible for poverty, crime, ignorance, gangs, promiscuity, addiction, hatred, violence, broken families and all the temperature will rise across California by more than four degrees over 50 years if the current acceleration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere continues. If there is no action to stabilize temperatures, they will likely increase by as much as 10 degrees here by this century’s end.

That would have major impacts on almost all areas of California life. It could reverse current trends toward increased population in inland areas where temperatures are highest and real estate prices lowest.

It would likely spur major flooding in coastal areas currently at sea level, including places like Venice Beach, Malibu and much of the Orange and San Diego county coast. That would raise the price of already high-priced housing on nearby bluffs and hilltops.

The federal report, produced by 13 agencies and approved by the National Academy of Sciences, says these trends may already be underway.

“One of the clearest signals…is that California is already a warmer place than it used to be,” Daniel Swain, a UCLA climate scientist whose work is mentioned in the study, told a reporter.

“That’s not a future prediction anymore.”

But President Trump’s

rest of the demons in Pandora’s box. It is wrong to make the police America’s scapegoat.

A final story. Many years ago, I found myself in charge at a particularly brutal crime scene. As the feuding parents were taken away and their unresponsive infant son was tenderly laid into the back of a waiting ambulance, the dying boy’s sweet little 6-year-old sister walked up to me with outstretched arms and glistening, marmoset eyes. I did what any cop would do. I gently picked her up off the floor and she wrapped herself around my neck. We remained like that for a very long time. Her skin was like chocolate.

appointees appear determined to prevent any action. Yes, California is fighting to stick with its climate change initiatives, like a strong mandate for renewable energy sources and tough auto and industrial emissions standards. But any good that does will be overwhelmed by gases the rest of the nation might produce if Trump appointees persist in delaying or canceling limits on coal-fueled power plants and other polluters.

And there will be more drought. “It’s very clear that temperatures (here) are increasing the risk of severe drought,” said Noah Diffenbaugh, a Stanford University scientist. “During the recent drought,” he noted, the state had its warmest years ever, with its warmest winters and its lowest recorded snowpack.

“These are all linked with high temperatures.”

So it’s not merely at his own peril that Trump ignores the danger – yes, Mar-a-lago could become a flooding victim. But the consequences also figure to damage many other parts of the nation Trump now leads. As he might say, “sad.”

Construction frustrations It took approximately 16 months to build the Pentagon during World War II. If the management in charge of whatever is being done at the corner of Bernardo Center Drive and Rancho Bernardo Road had been in charge it would have taken 16 years.

I would love for someone to tell me what is being done and why it is taking so long. I am sure there is some sort of bureaucratic explanation involving permits, licensing, etc. Additionally, I rarely see any work being done at the site. Why is that?

It is obvious that the inconvenience to the citizens of Rancho Bernardo was not a consideration in planning this project.

Poway Unified School District supports Poway student earns military women at ‘Operation Dress Code’ Congressional Award Gold Medal The staff at the Poway Unified School District and Poway Adult School recently teamed up to launch a clothing drive to support Courage to Call’s “Operation Dress Code,” designed to provide women who served or are currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces with the professional attire needed to transition from the military into the civilian workforce.

Donations were collected through Poway’s Career Technical Adult and Alternative Education program’s office and were part of “Dress Code Boutique Day” on Saturday at the Town and Country Hotel. Attendees received a personalized shopping experience, which included selecting from new or gently donated business wear including clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories and handbags displayed in a boutique-style showroom. In addition to the boutique shopping spree, the attendees received career assistance with resume writing, interviewing techniques and job searching skills.

“Not only (did) this event help these deserving women get the professional attire they need to succeed, but they also learned about adult education and career technical education opportunities available to support them as well,” said Denise McAndrews, career education specialist at Poway Adult School and coordinator of the clothing drive at the Poway campus.

As a salute to the “all” in their mission of “College and Career Readiness for All,” McAndrews said Poway Adult School recently launched Career Café, designed to help students create a personalized, online education plan. Career Education Specialists and counselors work with students to develop online portfolios and offer individualized assistance with resume writing, job interviewing, industry

Prep Girls Golf

Broncos repeat as section champions

BY TERRY MONAHAN When morning announcements at Rancho Bernardo High began last Friday, two girls in the Advanced Placement Statistics class had big smiles on their faces.

They knew what one of the announcements would be.

Senior Calista Reyes and junior Bailey Gansert were fresh off helping the Broncos win the San Diego Section Division I championship, giving Rancho Bernardo back-to-back CIF titles.

Unlike last season, when the Broncos prevailed over perennial champion Torrey Pines by the tiebreaker, this time the outcome was known long before the final golfer concluded play Thursday at Admiral Baker Golf Course.

Rancho Bernardo was the top team in both divisions with a team score of 754, some 40 strokes better than Division I runner-up Scripps Ranch.

The Broncos also outdistanced Division II champion Mater Dei Catholic (770) and runner-up Cathedral Catholic (777).

“Bailey and I were a little embarrassed by all the attention,’’ Reyes said. “Yes, we were both

The Rancho Bernardo High School girls golf team. smiling as the announcement started.’’

Rancho Bernardo and Mater Dei Catholic qualified for the Southern California Regionals next Thursday at Canyon Crest Country Club.

Among the individuals from teams other than Rancho Bernardo and Mater Dei, no one from Del Norte, which finished 10th, or Poway, which was 11th, advanced.

From before the regular season began, Broncos coach Tim Steigerwald thought he had another

COURTESY PHOTO

championship team on his hands.

With four golfers shooting under 155, his team won out again after so many losses to Torrey Pines in past CIF championships.

“Last year, for me, felt sweeter because we finally broke through,’’ he said. “We anticipated winning this year. I thought on paper we could do this. But Scripps Ranch was within shouting distance.’’

Until, that is, the first day when the Broncos established a 22-shot lead over Scripps Ranch.

Reyes, who will play next year at Stanford, was third with rounds of 72 and 69 for a 3-under-par 141 total, six shots behind Point Loma freshman Lauren Gomez.

Gansert shot a 150 followed by junior Stephanie Heimler at 153, senior Samantha Yi at 154, sophomore Serena Chi at 158 and senior Tatum Mahon at 161.

“We certainly weren’t as anxious trying to figure out if we tied a team or how the tiebreaker worked,’’ said the 5-foot-2 Reyes. “We came into

this season with the same mindset we had last year. We tried to stay humble, play our game.

“Hopefully, we can keep this title run going after I leave. It will come down to whether the players put in the work like we did all year.

“Putting up CIF banners means so much to me. We’ve made some history here. We left our mark and we made a lot of memories.’’

Sriya Mupparaju was Del Norte’s top golfer with a 155 while Poway was led by Belinda Nicholas with a 163.

After the championship in 2016, Steigerwald and his players had dinner at Bernardo Heights Country Club, their home course.

This time, the Broncos went to Happy Hour Sushi in San Diego for the celebration.

“Now I’ve got to make room in my classroom for another CIF banner,’’ Steigerwald said, sheepishly. “It was so frustrating before, always losing to Torrey Pines.

“Now that we’ve broken through, this one was much easier.’’

Torrey Pines finished in third in Division I with an 818, the fifth best mark of the day.

Prep Football Playoffs

Streaking Broncos host playoff game Thursday night Poway travels to Valhalla Friday

BY TERRY MONAHAN The Rancho Bernardo High School football team’s hot streak in the second half of the season has earned the Broncos a home game in the San Diego Section Division I playoffs.

The Broncos, seeded No. 7, will host No. 10 Valhalla, which is heading in the opposite direction, tonight (Thursday).

The game was moved because Friday is a Poway Unified School District holiday.

Poway was seeded No. 9 in Division I and hits the road for a game at No. 8 Olympian, a team that edged the Titans 42-41 on Sept. 8 on the same field.

In Division V, No. 5 Maranatha Christian will take on No. 4 Classical Academy at Del Norte High because Classical does not have its own field.

Del Norte (1-9) wound up seeded No. 13 in Division III, but did not earn a postseason berth

because only the top 12 teams make the playoffs.

Here is a closer look at this week’s games: No. 10 Valhalla (2-8) at No. 7 Rancho Bernardo (5-5), Thursday at 7 p.m.

Last week: Valhalla lost to Helix 49-0; Rancho Bernardo beat Poway 30-21.

Notes: Normally a running team, Rancho Bernardo ran for 173 yards last week against Poway and sophomore QB Noah Morris passed for 178 yards, with 175 coming by halftime, and four TDs. The Broncos have won five of their last six games after a 0-4 start. Morris, who missed the first five games after transferring from Orange Glen, has passed for 786 yards and 10 TDs. RB Tahj Martin rushed for 68 yards last week, all in the second half, to give him 557 yards and three TDs. The defense has become tougher to face, led by Luke Manos (79 tackles), Jonny Tanner (69 tackles) and Adam Burdette (59 tackles). Valhalla, which leads the series 1-0, has lost seven straight games.

Athlete of the Week

No longer a goalie, Titans’ Garrett Duardo thrives

BY TERRY MONAHAN It was just another boys water polo match for his club team at the 2016 Junior Olympics that changed Garrett Duardo’s life.

Duardo, now a senior at Poway High, was playing goalie at that time, but he felt a change was in order after three years guarding the cage.

He did not, however, know where that urge would take him.

Duardo’s coach told the goalie to go play the field, something Duardo had hinted at for weeks.

The 6-foot-2, 210-pounder never looked back.

“He could swim and the way he turned defenders to take a shot was impressive,’’ Poway coach and former Titans player John Giulianotti said. “He had an amazing grasp of what was going on out there.

“I can count on him to shut down shooters at two meters. He’s drawn more exclusions than anyone else. That move turns out to be genius because Garrett can play at the next level.’’

Duardo has blossomed since he was released from waiting at one end of the pool for the action to head his way.

Field play, it turns out, suits him.

“There was sure a lot to learn at first,’’ Duardo said. “It’s a lot different than hanging out in front of the cage the whole game.

Poway High's Garrett Duardo files on goal during a recent water polo match.

“I was kind of lost at first. The other guys had hundreds of hours of doing the things I had to learn on the fly. I was so tired after practices and games I was seriously thinking of going back to goalie.’’

Luckily for the Titans, he stayed put.

Poway, now 18-8 after finishing the regular season with three straight wins and six victories in the last seven games, is the No. 1 seed in the San Diego Section Division I playoffs.

After opening with a first-round bye, the Titans faced Canyon Crest in Tuesday’s quarterfinals.

Duardo has the Titans’ offense still scoring at a high rate.

“I wasn’t great when I started this field play stuff,’’

Duardo said. “Slowly, I learned and got better at the game. The basic fundamentals took me over a year to get down so that I just reacted instead of thinking about what I should do.”

“I was so tired of being awful for over a year,” he said. “I just kept going and now I think I have all the muscle movements down.’’

Duardo has scored 26 goals and added 45 assists this season with an additional 32 ejections drawn.

He’s also collected 24 steals on defense.

“Poway hasn’t won a CIF title in 16 years,’’ Duardo said. “Last year we won a league title for the first time in 19 years. I want nothing more than to see my year on the CIF banner in the gym. That will be there forever.”

“The ironic thing about that is for it to happen we need good goalie play. You can’t be good without one. I don’t think I would have been that person.’’

Duardo plans to continue playing next season at Grossmont College.

He also is considering a major in computer science or, like his dad, firefighting.

“I hope he’s OK with that,’’ Duardo said. “I used to play baseball for the longest time. It kind of got boring. Water polo, like firefighting, is hardly boring.’’

Just like leaving behind your life as a goalie to play in the rough-and-tumble world as a field player in water polo.

PowPAC’s ‘Making God Laugh’ opens Friday

BY EMILY SORENSEN PowPAC, Poway’s Community Theatre, is taking a comedic turn for the holidays with “Making God Laugh,” opening Friday.

“Making God Laugh” is a family comedy written by Sean Grennan, a playwright and lyricist. The show premiered in 2011 and has since been produced more than 70 times in the U.S., Canada and the United Kingdom.

The title of the show comes from the Woody Allen quote “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.”

Brent Stringfield, the show’s director, said the show is not “your typical holiday show” and something new for the audience, as it has not been produced many times, if ever, in San Diego.

The play tells the story of a family, Ruthie and Bill and their three grown children, as the children return home for various holidays over a 30-year period, starting in 1980. Their children are a priest, an aspiring actress and a former football star.

“The kids get out in the world with certain plans, and they don’t work out for various reasons,” said Stringfield. “It’s about the love a family shares and how they relate to each other.”

The show stars Linda Englund as Ruthie, John Wilcox as Bill, Jack

Holdeman as Richard, Shelby Blackwood as Maddie, Alex Contreras as Thomas and Michele Dixon as the housekeeper.

Stringfield said that while he had seen all the actors in previous shows, he had

never directed any of them before. “It’s nice for me to work with an entirely new cast and be able to appreciate their talents.”

The role of the housekeeper is one

Stringfield created for PowPAC’s production of the show, in order to accommodate scene changes that needed to be made on a very tight schedule.

There are two scenes per act, each a different holiday, so the housekeeper character was created to change out the holiday décor while the cast makes complete costume changes (to represent the passing time). “It allows the audience to remain engaged (while the cast has to be offstage),” Stringfield said.

Stringfield said he thinks audiences will enjoy the show because everybody likes a holiday show and that while the show is a comedy, it also has many poignant moments. “It gets the audience to think about their own families and how they relate to them,” he said.

The show runs for five weekends through Sunday, Dec. 17. There are no performances Nov. 24 through Nov. 26 due to Thanksgiving. Show times are 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m.

Sundays.

Peter Bolland, Nathan Welden to perform Friday

BY EMILY SORENSEN The San Diego Folk Heritage in Friday will present a concert featuring Peter Bolland and Nathan Welden.

The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. and will be held in Templar’s Hall in Old Poway Park, 14134 Midland Road. Tickets are $18, $15 for members of the SDFH, and are available in advance from TicketWeb.com or at the door.

Bolland is a long-time Folk Heritage favorite, having performed several times for the organization, while Welden will be making his Folk Heritage concert debut.

They will each be performing solo acoustic sets, with Bolland performing first.

A folk singer-songwriter, Bolland’s main career is as a philosophy professor at Southwestern College, a position he has held for 26 years. He also teaches and lectures outside of the college and writes columns for two magazines and a political op-ed column for a website.

Because of his busy career, Bolland said he does not have the opportunity to perform music as much as he did in the past. “The show (at Templar’s Hall) is really special to me. Templar’s Hall is the perfect place for an acoustic show.”

Bolland said he enjoys the musical

N E X T

Nathan Welden vibes of Templar’s Hall and cannot wait to hear his acoustic guitar in it.

Bolland said he will be performing 10 to 12 of his songs, “and hopefully make people cry if I get lucky.”

Welden describes his musical style as Americana. “It’s simple, acoustic, folk, country,” he said. His musical style has been compared to

Welden said he has always been a singer and began playing guitar when he was 19. He performed for several years in coffee shops and at open-mic nights before moving on to perform at restaurants and hotels, as well as private venues and events like weddings.

Welden teaches tennis as his day job, another passion of his.

While Welden hasn’t performed for the Folk Heritage before, he has performed at Old Poway Park in the past, both in Templar’s Hall and as part of the Train Song Festival.

“I’m excited to be able to play old and new music (at the concert),” he said.

Let’s talk turkey and other fowls for a nontraditional feast: Part 1 “We’re having something a little different this year for Thanksgiving. Instead of turkey, we’re having swan. You get more stuffing.”

— George Carlin

N

either American historians nor food folklorists really know why the geeky, mostly flightless turkey with Styrofoam-textured flesh was designated as the celebratory bird of the Thanksgiving table other than the fact that it is native to America. Pilgrim records of the first Thanksgiving, when the colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared the autumn harvest, describe a Paleo-style menu that included wild turkey along with lobster, mussels, deer, geese, ducks, and swan. If you’re tired of the traditional, coma-inducing turkey dinner here’s a round-up of divine birds to grace the holiday table and seduce intrepid palates. Quack, quack, honk, honk.

Ducks in a Row: Duck has a slightly gamey, rich flesh that’s completely dark, even the breast meat. Along with a rich store of protein the juicy fowl contains a load of essential vitamins and minerals, especially stress-relieving B’s, immune boosting zinc, and heme iron, an easily absorbable form of the mineral to ward off anemia and fatigue. Alas, it is also a fatty bird containing a blend of saturated, mono and polyunsaturated fats (although the latter two have comparable benefits to heart-healthy olive oil). So for the cholesterol-conscious, eat moderately.

The most popular breed in the United States is the White Pekin, flavorful without the overpowering gamey taste, along with leaner, more tender meat. The Mallard, a medium-sized wild duck has lean yet greasy tasting flesh that also tends to be a little tough. The Muscovy, which has a strong grass-fed beefy taste is mostly used for its liver to make fois gras.

(It’s now legal again in California after a court judgment reversed the statewide ban.)

Whatever breed you choose, trim excess fat, score the breast skin and poke with several holes before roasting to create a leaner meat with a crispy flavorful skin. A whole roasted duck with a citrus or port glaze and wild rice pilaf is a festive and luxurious way to celebrate the holidays.

Get your Goose On: This succulent waterfowl has been the centerpiece of Christmas tables in Europe for centuries, and would be equally appropriate (and delicious) for the November feast. Like duck, the goose is exclusively dark meat, yet more of a reddish hue reminiscent of a medium rare cut of prime rib roast. But unlike its wild cousin has its fat content in and beneath the skin with mostly lean flesh. Most commercial geese are proprietary hybrids that are reared free range and grass fed. For a more tender bird, select a 10 to 12 pounder.

Standing advice: Trim excess fat from the neck, and gently pierce the skin with the tip of a sharp knife. Season the skin and cavity with sea salt, pepper, garlic, lemon, fresh sage and thyme. Place the whole bird on a bed of assorted root vegetables and roast in a moderate oven until golden brown. Periodically remove the melted fat from the pan with a basting bulb.

Rock Stars: For an intimate gathering, serve individual Rock Cornish Hens to each guest. This hybrid cross between Cornish and Plymouth Rock chickens produces a miniature bird, both male and female ranging from two to four pounds, while the Cornish Game Hen is a young female that weighs less than 2.2 pounds. These are not game birds despite the name, rather broilers with mostly tender white meat, high in protein and low in calories (about 800).

They cook quickly, even when stuffed with traditional wild rice and cranberries, and make an elegant change up from the big old bulky turkeys. The downside, no leftovers.

S

praying a fire hose with a firefighter and exploring a fire engine and ambulance were only some of the many activities available to youngsters during the annual pancake breakfast at the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Station No. 2 in 4S Ranch on Sunday morning.

The event included district firefighters serving breakfast, posing for photos and answering questions.

There was also a fire demonstration, hands-only CPR lessons, jump houses and other activities.

The breakfast and open house was hosted by the Rancho Santa Fe Professional Firefighters Association and Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District. The district’s approximate 50-square-miles coverage area includes 4S Ranch and protects more than 32,000 locals.

HEALTHY LIFE

Keeping the flu away Protect yourself and your family this season

I

nfluenza, commonly called the flu, is a serious viral disease that affects the nose, throat and lungs. It also causes extreme fatigue and can put you out of commission for a week or more. The virus is easily spread by infected persons, but you can reduce your risk of catching the flu bug with an annual seasonal flu vaccine.

Why get vaccinated?

By far, the best way to prevent the flu is vaccination. Even healthy people can get the flu, along with serious problems related to the virus, such as ear infections, pneumonia and sinus infections. In addition to reducing flu illnesses, the vaccine can reduce doctor visits, avoid missed work and school, and prevent flu-related hospitalizations.

Moreover, skipping the flu shot can increase the risk of the virus spreading through your community.

“Even if you don’t mind feeling absolutely terrible and not being able to work or take care of your kids, you can still spread the flu to other people,” said Mark Shalauta, MD, a family medicine doctor at Scripps Clinic Rancho Bernardo. “That includes kids, elderly people and others for whom the flu creates a much higher risk of serious or life-threatening complications.”

The annual flu season in the United States can begin as early as October and

last as late as May. Dr. Shalauta recommends getting the vaccine sooner rather than later, but says it is never too late in the season to get the vaccine.

Moreover, since flu viruses change from season to season, it’s important to get the flu shot every year. Researchers predict which viruses will most prevalent each season, and formulate the vaccine accordingly.

“The past several years have been pretty spot on as far as predicting what is circulating,” said Dr. Shalauta. “It’s not 100 percent, but the more people who are immunized, the less the virus will spread around.”

Take time to get your vaccine The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends the vaccine for everyone 6 months and older, with a few exceptions.

Different flu shots are approved for people of different ages, and there are shots approved for pregnant women and people with chronic health conditions as well.

The exceptions are: - Children younger than 6 months - People with severe, life-threatening allergies to flu vaccine or any ingredients in the vaccine Since 2016, individuals with egg allergies can receive the appropriate vaccine for their age and no longer have to be monitored for 30 minutes after it is

administered. Always talk to your doctor about any allergies you have before getting the shot. If you have had Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a severe paralyzing illness, also talk to your doctor to see if you are able to receive the shot.

Most people who contract the flu will recover in less than two weeks, but some groups are more likely to have complications from the flu that can result in hospitalization or even death. It is particularly important for those who are at high risk for serious flu complications to get the vaccine.

These include:

- Children younger than 5 - Adults 65 years and older - Pregnant women - Residents of nursing homes and other long-term care facilities - Individuals with underlying chronic conditions, such as asthma, diabetes or heart, liver or kidney disease For more information about the flu virus and influenza vaccines, talk to your primary care doctor.

ASK MR. MARKETING

BY ROB WEINBERG

Why there’s no free lunch

E

ach of us, when surfing the web, has encountered customer loyalty programs, those insidious efforts to persuade customers to share personal information with total strangers.

They start innocently enough: “Tell us your name, birthday and email and we’ll give you a free meal/bar of soap/pair of socks during the month you’re celebrating.”

They’re just being nice guys, right? No. Whether they’re offering points, discounts, or free gifts (which I’d argue is redundant), these companies all share a single objective; building their bottom line.

Your profile information is stored in an automated database, layered with your shopping patterns, and then sold and re-sold among marketers.

Restaurants and retailers alike understand efforts like “birthday clubs” grab the low-hanging fruit for generating new business.

Let’s say I own a local restaurant and invite you to get a free burger on your birthday. In addition to the goodwill being generated, I know the overwhelming majority of Americans eat out on their birthday. I also recognize the average birthday table has three-four people, spending $78.

So, as a restaurant owner, it behooves me to lure you in with the offer of something free, as the profits generated by the others at your

table will more than offset my promotional costs.

True, some customers will celebrate alone, but they’ll probably order a drink or fries to go with that burger, again covering marketing-related expenses.

Furthermore, regardless of whether you dined alone or with friends, odds are excellent you’ll visit my restaurant in the future.

Theoretically, the costs of that free burger should return to me multiple times over the course of the next year.

No wonder a Direct Marketing Association study showed such gift offers are the most widely used and effective marketing tool. After all, people believing someone gave them something for nothing are inclined to follow a law of reciprocity.

Meaning when that shoe store sends you a “Free $10 in merchandise” coupon, you’re disposed to return there because they were nice to you and remembered your birthday.

All of which suggests that starting a birthday club can be a boon to any business’ bottom line. It’ll generate loyalty, introduce new customers to your great quality and service, and help you build your mailing list.

With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Start building your own customer loyalty program at www.askmrmarketing.com.

Complete Nutrition offers body transformations

BY EMILY SORENSEN Complete Nutrition offers everything from supplements to fitness and nutrition advice.

Located at 14751 Pomerado Road in the Target Center, Complete Nutrition opened at the end of August.

Owned by Jeff Norton, this is the first franchise location for the business in Southern California. Another is in the works in Encinitas.

The company, which has about 165 locations nationwide, was formed in Omaha by former owners of 13 GNC stores. “They decided to go into direct competition (with GNC),” said Norton.

“They didn’t see eye-to-eye.”

Norton was born and raised in San Diego. Prior to opening his Complete Nutrition franchise, he worked for Hewlett-Packard in Rancho Bernardo for about 18 years, in marketing and sales development for the printer division. After leaving Hewlett-Packard, he opened his own marketing business focusing on web development four years ago, which he still runs along with Complete Nutrition.

Part of his desire in opening a Complete Nutrition franchise location in Poway was to bring a new concept of health and wellness to his community, he said.

Complete Nutrition offers more than just supplements and vitamins. The business’ body transformation service is a huge part what sets it apart from other stores, said Norton.

The body transformation service includes creating a comprehensive plan for helping customers with whatever body change they seek, including weight loss, lean muscle gain or sports performance.

“It’s not just about weight loss,” said Norton. “It’s all about helping (customers) with whatever their desired body transformation is. It’s not just throwing a bunch of products at you, but consulting on what you need, helping to find the right foods and beverages to consume, the right amount of fitness, the right supplements. There’s a lot of different ways to help customers and that is what we aim to do.”

The comprehensive service includes advice on nutrition from the store’s nutrition consultant, advice on workouts and fitness from the store’s fitness consultant, a reference to meal planning services, partnerships with local gyms and fitness clubs and a study of the customer’s body composition.

Customers can get the most out of their products and services through the

San Diego home prices Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage raises climb 7.8 percent in year more than $50,000 for charity at event SAN DIEGO (CNS) - San Diego home prices rose 0.9 percent between July and August, and increased 7.8 percent from August of last year, according to the latest Standard & Poor's CoreLogic Case-Shiller Indices.

The annual increase was the third-largest among the 20 major real estate markets tracked by S&P. The indices were created by taking the price of homes in those cities in January 2000, assigning them a value of 100, and tracking their subsequent rise and fall.

In August, San Diego's mark was at 245.55, representing a home value increase of nearly two and a half times over nearly 18 years. Prices have risen at a greater rate only in Los Angeles.

The 20-city index stood at 202.87 in August, up 0.4 percent for the month and 5.9 percent on an annual basis.

David Blitzer, managing director and chairman of the Index Committee at S&P Dow Jones Indices, pointed out that the jump in housing prices has outstripped inflation and costs of other goods and commodities, with only oil coming close.

“The ongoing rise in home prices poses questions of why prices are climbing and whether they will continue to outpace most of the economy,” Blitzer said. “Currently, low mortgage rates combined with an improving economy are supporting home prices.”

He said the price gains aren't just a rebound from the financial crisisbecause they're reaching all-time highs nationally and in many individual markets.

However, affordability -- long a problem in San Diego and the rest of California - is beginning to slip nationally, shrinking the pool of prospective buyers, according to Blitzer. He also said that mortgage rates will eventually follow moves by the Federal Reserve to boost interest rates.

Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage raised more than $50,000 for charity at its 11th Annual Coldwell Banker Community Foundation Charity Golf Event, which was hosted at The Crosby Golf Club in Rancho Santa Fe on Oct. 10.

From the funds raised, 10 percent will be given directly to Balboa Naval Medical Center’s Children’s Hematology and Oncology Department, and the Coldwell Banker Community Foundation, which works to improve the quality of life of local communities by supporting local charities, will distribute the remaining funds to various charities in the area throughout the year.

“I am truly grateful to everyone who participated in our 11th Annual Coldwell Banker Community Foundation Charity Golf Event and helped raise funds for Balboa Naval Medical Center’s Children’s Hematology and Oncology Department and the Coldwell Banker Community Foundation,” said Jamie Duran, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s Orange County, Riverside County and San Diego Companies. “San Diego is one of the biggest military towns in the country, so we were truly excited to raise funds for the various military families that live in our community.”

More than 150 attendees spent the day participating in the 18-hole Coldwell

Banker Annual Community Foundation Golf Tournament followed by a cocktail hour, live and silent auction and a dinner at the Crosby National Golf Club.

The Annual Coldwell Banker Community Foundation Charity Golf Event is the only fundraising event held

by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s Riverside County and San Diego Companies. The annual event was established in 2007 with the proceeds benefiting the Coldwell Banker Community Foundation.

Every year, 10 percent of the proceeds are distributed to the charity selected for that year while the remaining proceeds from the event are distributed to various

nonprofit organizations by the Coldwell Banker Community Foundation throughout the year. In 2016, the designated charity was Shelter to Soldiers. The Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage branch offices play an integral part in the success of the event. Each office is responsible for contributing a themed gift basket to the silent auction, which is held on the evening of the golf tournament. The gift baskets consist of items contributed by local merchants, affiliate agents and staff members. In addition, a live auction is also held for larger items that have been donated.
