BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Two new queens will be making appearances in Rancho Bernardo, starting Friday with their first official event — judging RB High’s Mr. Bronco pageant. Anita Clifford, the new Miss Rancho Bernardo, and Taylor Mitchell, the new Miss Rancho Bernardo Teen, were crowned on Sunday following the day-long pageant at the Rancho Bernardo Inn. Both said this was their first pageant and they wanted to become the 2016 titleholders so they could give back to their community. “I’m really surprised and really happy that all my hard work paid off,” Clifford said.

Children make matzah at pre-Passover event Model Matzah Bakery hosted by Chabad of Poway and RB Albertsons BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK More than 60 children and their parents learned how to make matzah on Monday evening at the Rancho Bernardo Albertsons. The free event, co-hosted by the store and Chabad of Poway, was designed to give children a hands-on pre-Passover experience. Matzah is a thin, crisp unleavened bread that Jews traditionally eat during Passover, which begins at sundown on Friday and continues through nightfall on April 30. On Monday they made shmurah matzah, which means it was handmade, not manufactured, matzah. Passover commemorates the exodus of Jews from Egypt. Chabad of Poway’s plans to celebrate Passover include two festive seder dinners on Friday and Saturday. For details and to RSVP, go to chabadpoway.com or call 858-451-0455. As for matzah, there is a specific way to make it since the dough must be baked before it has a chance to rise. Therefore, the process must be completed within 18 minutes, said Rabbi Mendel Goldstein. During the Model Matzah Bakery set up in the store, the children re-enacted the process of manufacturing matzah by separating wheat kernels from the husk, grinding them into flour, kneading dough, rolling then adding holes and baking the matzah. Goldstein said eating matzah is one of Passover’s most fundamental observances since it commemorates the haste in which the Israelites left Egypt. They did not have enough time for their dough to rise, hence the unleavened matzah. “The Matzah Bakery provides children with a very fun experience, but also helps develop a profound appreciation for the holiday,” he said. “Today, more than ever, parents appreciate opportunities like this to share their Jewish heritage and tradition with the next generation.” The Model Matzah Bakery is part of a

This year’s celebration is more significant because it is the year of Hakhel, a once-every-seven-years opportunity to celebrate Jewish unity and learning, he said. While Chabad of Poway holds such events for children at its facilities, putting on the event at a grocery store was also significant, said senior Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein. “It lets the masses learn about Passover and gives the children the feeling that in a public arena they can feel free to practice (their religion),” he said. “This is about freedom and enjoying their liberties ... they should do it and be proud of it,” Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein said. “For us, it is an amazing concept to bring Judaism to the outside (world). We can feel secure and feel proud of it.” “We accomplished our goal,” Rabbi Mendel Goldstein said. “The point was to educate, but more to be proud that we can be Jewish and celebrate in the middle of a supermarket.” He added that it emphasizes that in this country there is freedom to practice religion, rather than freedom from religion. “Passover is not simply a celebration of the SEE PASSOVER, A22

Veterans stories sought for book BY EMILY SORENSEN hris Cunningham is searching for veterans willing to tell their stories for a book. Cunningham, who is the wife of Poway Councilman Jim Cunningham and has been heavily involved in Poway Veterans Park since its inception, has spent the past several years talking to veterans and their families for the tiles that are displayed around the park. Now, Cunningham is looking to speak to some of those same veterans and families for "If These Walls Could Talk," a collection of stories and photos of the veterans with their tiles. "I want to write a book highlighting the stories of the veterans who are honored with tiles in Poway Veterans Park," said Cunningham. Cunningham said she was hoping to interview 100 veterans for the book. There are over 400 tiles up in Poway Veterans Park. She initially became involved in Poway Veterans Park when the Poway Veterans Organization brought their desire for an official park to the Poway City Council, after 15 years of trying to get a park built. When she asked how she could help, Cunningham said she was told about the tile orders, and has handled them ever since. "At first, there were big batches of tiles, but now it’s

slowed. We do two orders of tiles a year." Cunningham was asked to be on the Poway Veterans Park committee six years ago, and was the only civilian member, holding an honorary member title to allow her to be on the committee, she said. The park officially opened on Veterans Day in 2010. Cunningham said that the book has been an idea since soon after the park opened, inspired in part by a book of photographs from the opening ceremony she gave to her husband to commemorate the event. She was also inspired by working with the tile orders. "Often, I had to call to get more information (for the tile orders) and with the calls I was getting a lot of stories," said Cunningham. "They would tell me all about their family members." Cunningham said she wasn’t interested in getting an overview of the veterans military service, but a "frozen moment in time." "I’m not looking for a biography, or an explanation of the tile," she said. "I want a frozen moment in time, something that impacted them in the service, or made them think about going into the service or something that impacted them after (their time in the service)." One veteran had told her a story of how he dreamed of flying with the Blue Angels as a kid,

Chris Cunningham, with one of the four binders that hold the over 400 tile orders for Poway Veterans Park. and then did, back before they had safety gear. "The idea is to get a photo of the veteran, if possible, with his or her tile, or a member of the family if the veteran has died, and maybe an old photo of them in the service, and a couple of pages of their story," said Cunningham. Cunningham plans to work with a writer’s group who will help do interview with the veterans and edit the stories.

All proceeds from the book will be split between the park and veterans groups, though Cunningham said how it will be split hasn’t been finalized yet. "It’s a really great way to honor veterans and improve the park," she said. Veterans interested in contributing their stories to the book can contact Cunningham at ccunningham7781@gmail.com or 619-851-9216.

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK A 16-year-old harpist from 4S Ranch is headed to New York City this summer to perform at Carnegie Hall. Maho Morikawa recently won a second place award in the 13- to 18-year-old division of the American Protégé International Concerto Competition. Those who placed were invited to perform in Carnegie Hall this summer or fall, with the top finalists also receiving additional prizes. The list of winners’ names, instruments and selections, including Morikawa’s, can be viewed at americanprotege.com/concerto2016. Her mother, Yuka Morikawa, said they learned about the contest through the Rancho Bernardo News Journal when it featured a local winner a few years ago. Morikawa’s entry video featured her playing the first movement of "Concerto for Harp in C Major" by Boieldieu. "It’s not unknown, but it’s also not mainstream," Morikawa said. "I enjoyed the way it sounds, ... it’s emotional and I excel at that type (of music). I picked it because I loved the way it sounded and it’s really technical. It scared me at the beginning, but became my favorite because it’s fun and bouncy." Her entry included a piano accompanist, but at Carnegie Hall she will play alone. For her July 2 performance, Morikawa said she will play "Impromptu" by Gliere. "It’s quite different; a romantic piece with emotional, big swells; a dramatic piece," she said. "(Playing at Carnegie Hall is) a really big honor ... a really big step toward figuring who I am as a musician," she said. "This is really exciting for me." She added, "It is one of those experiences that is taking time to hit me. The recording felt good, but in a competition like this you do not know who you are going up against, so I was not expecting a lot." The international competition was open to all instruments, including strings, piano, voice and winds. Entrants were from the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, Austria, Germany, Greece,

Harpist Maho Morikawa has been invited to perform at Carnegie Hall in July. Bulgaria, Slovenia, Poland, China, South Korea, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, according to the contest’s website. Entrants were divided into three divisions, 12 and under, 13 to 18 and adult. Learning a new piece of music takes three to six months, depending on its length and if it has a lot of subtleties to understand, she said. "I practice every day for an hour or more." Morikawa said she started playing the harp around age 6 because "I thought it was pretty. It sounded amazing and I had a knack for it. It felt good to play, giving me an emotional release because, as an individual, I’m not an expressive person." She said both of her parents are also musicians. Her mother plays the piano, and her father, Kazuyuki Morikawa, plays the guitar. Morikawa said she has also played the flute since fifth grade and now, as a Del Norte High junior, is a flutist in its wind ensemble and marching band. On the flute she occasionally plays duets with her mom on the piano. In sixth grade she became a harpist with Civic Youth Orchestra in Escondido and was its principal harpist in 2013-14. Due to school and other commitments she became a part-time member last year. "Music takes up much of my time," Morikawa said, adding she would like to study it in college so she can eventually teach while still performing.

Westview High, Del Norte included in top schools list

RB rec basketball president honored

(CNS) — Canyon Crest Academy in northern San Diego is the fifth best public high school in the state, according to rankings released today by U.S. News & World Report. The campus in the San Dieguito Union School District ranked 73rd nationally. The publication commended the school for having 93 percent of its nearly 1,900 students participating in Advanced Placement classes, and a college readiness index of 86.6. Locally, Westview High in Torrey Highlands was ranked 38th in the state and 266th in the country. Del Norte High in 4S Ranch was ranked 50th in the state and 334th in the country. The rankings were based on language and math proficiency tests; whether black, Hispanic and low-income students performed better than their peers in their states; and, for the first time, graduation rates.

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK For his dedication to the Rancho Bernardo Youth Basketball League, George Brashear has been named the 2016 Glassman-Brown Recreational Leadership Award recipient. “I’m excited ... it’s a nice thing to be recognized,” Brashear said. The award has been George Brashear presented to 14 others since created in 2000. Recipients must have contributed at least five years of outstanding, unpaid leadership service to the community through recreation at Rancho Bernardo Community Park. It is named in honor of the late Ed Brown and

“A high school education is imperative for success in both college and a career, and a school’s graduation rate is a key indicator of whether students are being effectively prepared for both paths,” said Anita Narayan, managing editor of education at U.S. News. “The 2016 Best High Schools rankings provide students and parents with data-driven information on public schools to help them make better-informed decisions about their education.’’ The college readiness index was based on the percentage of students who participated in advanced placement or international baccalaureate programs. U.S. News & World Report ranked the School for the Talented and Gifted in Dallas as tops in the U.S. for the fifth year in a row. The best in California was Whitney High of Cerritos, in southeastern Los Angeles County.

George Brashear receives Glassman-Brown Recreational Leadership Award Stu Glassman, who provided leadership during the park’s early development. Recipients are selected by the Rancho Bernardo Recreation Council. Not long after Brashear; his wife, Kim; and their sons, Matthew and Michael, moved to Rancho Bernardo from Louisiana eight years ago, Brashear got involved in his new community. Activities included Boy Scouts and Hope United Methodist Church service projects. He is also Beta Engineering’s executive vice president of West Coast operations. While Brashear played baseball growing up, his boys — then in elementary school — preferred basketball, a sport Brasher said he did not particularly care for at the organizational level, but one he enjoyed playing as a youth on his family’s farm.

However, since Matthew — then third grade — and Michael — then first grade — wanted to play basketball, he signed them up for the RB league. By 2010, the league’s board asked him to join. Within a year, he was its president. According to Brian Kuck, who nominated Brashear for the award, the league that began in 1972 “was seriously in jeopardy of folding.” He credits Brashear for saving it, though Brashear says that is also due to his fellow board members. Kuck said since Brashear became president, the number of players has increased 20 percent, a summer camp lead by college basketball coaches and players was added, the league organizes and SEE BASKETBALL, A15

Savvy Senior BY JIM MILLER

Time to take Social Security?

ear Savvy Senior, I will turn 62 in a few months and am trying to decide when to start taking my Social Security retirement benefits. Almost everything I read on this topic tells me it’s better to wait until my full retirement age or beyond. Is there ever a good reason to start early? Ready to Retire Dear Ready, You’re right! Most financial planners agree that waiting to take your Social Security retirement benefits is a smart financial move. Why? Because each month you defer, from your 62nd birthday to your 70th, your monthly benefits grow. That adds up to around 6 to 8 percent higher payments for every

year you delay. Yet despite the financial incentive to wait, most people (58 percent of men and 64 percent of women) claim their benefits before full retirement age, which is currently 66 for those born between 1943 and 1954. But speeding up the clock isn’t always a bad idea. Here are some scenarios where it may make sense for you to collect early. • You need the money: If you’re retired and don’t have enough savings or a pension to cover your living expenses, you’ll probably have to start early. But, if you decide to work, be aware of the earnings test. If you claim Social Security benefits before

full retirement age (and you don’t reach 66 this year), you’ll forfeit $1 for every $2 you earn over the earnings limit of $15,720 in 2016. It usually doesn’t make sense to take benefits early if you’re working, unless your income is below the earnings limit. • You have poor health: Having a serious medical problem that is likely to shorten your life is another reason to start your benefits sooner rather than later. Consider the “break even point” — the age you need to reach to come out ahead by waiting to claim Social Security — is 78 for someone who claims at 62 versus waiting to 66. If you don’t anticipate making it to 78,

go ahead and claim early. However, if you are married or have other dependents at home that depend on your benefit, you may want to hold off because starting early will reduce their survivor’s benefits. • You’re a lower-earning spouse: If you’re married and your lifetime earnings are much lower than your spouse’s, you could take your benefit early but your higher-earning spouse should delay. This lets you increase your household income now, while the higher-earning spouse’s benefit grows, therefore increasing the survivor benefit. This strategy is best suited when a lower-earning wife is three to six years younger than her husband and her earnings are 30 to 40 percent of his. She should claim at 62 and he should claim at full retirement age, or better yet wait to age 69 or 70. Because the husband is likely to die earlier, the wife’s reduced benefit will be temporary and she will then qualify for the higher survivor benefit. • Skeptical of Social

Security: Many people take their retirement benefits early because they fear Social Security will go bankrupt, but this not a good reason to start collecting early. While it is true that the Social Security trust fund will become insolvent around 2033 — 17 years from now — if no changes are made, that doesn’t mean there will be no more money for benefits. It means that the fund is no longer taking in enough money to cover all promised benefits. Thus payment checks are likely to end up shrinking by about 25 percent. But, if the thought of losing out on your benefits keeps you up at night, then it may be better to start claiming early instead of holding off for more later. To see how much your benefits will be affected by your claiming age, use the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s new Planning for Retirement tool at http://1.usa.gov/1VeIW81.

FROM BASKETBALL, A7 participates in the Bronco Ball 3 vs. 3 Basketball Tournament and maintains a high school division, which Kuck wrote “is unusual for recreational basketball leagues.” He credits Brashear with creating a link between the recreational and club leagues that feed into Rancho Bernardo High’s teams. “George’s efforts are contributing to the pipeline of players for the Rancho Bernardo High School basketball program,” Kuck said. Kuck called Brashear’s efforts “an inspiration” to other volunteers, adding that Brashear continued even after his boys left the league. Brashear said due to their high skill level, several years ago his boys joined the club program. Now, Michael is a freshman on Maranatha Christian High School’s varsity team and in the Coastal Elite San Marcos competitive program during the off-season. Michael, a seventh grader, plays in the year-round Bronco Ball program and is on Maranatha’s junior high team. “I joined the board due to a strong sense of community,” Brashear said. As for why he continued, “I feel the need to be involved and nobody has stepped up, wanting to be president. I stay because it is a great program and I do not want to lose that momentum. ... I’ve put in a lot of time and do not want it to go upside down if I leave.” He said there are 250 to 300 kids — mostly boys, but a few girls — in the league from third grade to high school, though occasionally there is a first or second grader. The season goes from December to March. “It’s really fulfilling for me,” he said. “I’ve seen many kids come in knowing nothing about basketball and coached some teams.” He recalled one girl who came in without any basketball knowledge and when she got older left to play on RB High’s team. “That’s what it’s all about,” Brashear said. “Kids who really enjoy it can go on and do good things.” Brashear said when he spots a player with talent and interest he encourages the parents to get the child in a more competitive program than recreational league. “You get to see them grow.”

CRIME LOG Crimes reported in Poway

DETOUR PROGRAM ACTIVATED The Integrated Corridor Management project designed to guide drivers around major incidents along the Interstate 15 corridor, provide travel choices and improve travel-time reliability, was scheduled to live on Thursday. Through electronic freeway signs, 40 specially-designated alternate route signs, and coordinated traffic signal and ramp meters, motorists have the option of circumventing major freeway incidents between a 20-mile stretch of I-15, from just north of State Route 52 to State Route 78. Project signs, like that pictured, were installed last fall in Poway and Rancho Bernardo. For details, go to sandag.org/icm or download the mobile app at 511sd.com/app.

Good-natured gardening BY CLARENCE SCHMIDT

Some basics about roses

oses can beguile and bedazzle, but they will take a little work. Fortunately, I have cut my rose maintenance time down to a mere three weeks per month. So what’s all involved? There’s regular removal (deadheading) of spent flowers. Also, occasional, sometimes aggressive pruning is necessary to remove weak, dead or dying stems. Plus, there’s fighting diseases and bad insects. Roses are susceptible to fungus, rust, powdery mildew, blackspot, Botrytis Blight, botulism, and Mad Cow disease. OK, maybe not the last two. Feed them every other month. Some all-in-one rose care products fertilize, combat insects and fight diseases. Apply mulch to hold off the weeds, reduce moisture evaporation and moderate soil temperatures. Make sure your roses are in an area where they will get at least six hours of sun.

Then there’s the watering. Roses are an excellent way to double your water bill. Depending on the weather, an inch of water a week is sufficient. Re-routing your neighbor’s irrigation system can provide huge savings. Roses differ by size, color, fragrance, repeat flowering, thorns, race, creed, weather tolerance, and disease resistance. They also differ by growth patterns such as arching, climbers, scrambling, trailing or upright, and blooming patterns, either clusters or one flower per stem. The best months to buy roses are January and February, just when you have no money left over from the holidays. Expect to pay $25 for a nursery bare root wrapped in sawdust for immediate planting. It’s $30 if you need dirt and a bucket. Hybrid teas are the most popular type of rose because of their color variety, fragrance and beautiful blooms, some of which last over a

week. They grow 3-to-5 feet tall and wide, depending on the variety and growing conditions. Teas have been cultivated in every color except blue, with many bi-colors available. Check out the honorable Mr. Lincoln (very fragrant), the stunning Marilyn Monroe (distinctive apricot color) and the striking Good as Gold (highly productive). HTs like slightly acidic soil in the 6.0 - 6.5 pH range. Use an iron supplement if the pH is too high or if the leaves turn yellow. Some rosarians believe that Epson salt intensifies flower color. I just share a cup of black coffee with the teas; sometimes just the used grounds. The first hybrid tea rose, La France came out in 1867. However, hybrid teas did not become popular until the Peace was introduced at the end of World War II. In 1930 the word “floribunda” was created by Jackson & Perkins, an American cultivator of roses. Floribundas are smaller and bushier shrubs than most hybrid teas. They are hardy, disease resistant shrubs with fragrant clusters of continuous blooms. Take a look at David Austin’s Glenfiddich. Yup, named after the Scotch whiskey. Its color is a golden-amber with large fragrant flowers. Grandifloras are a cross between a floribunda and a hybrid tea. They flower either singly or in clusters and have large hybrid tea-shaped

blooms. Like floribundas, they have long-stemmed clusters that continually repeat. These hardy and disease-resistant bushes can reach over 6 feet tall and just as wide. They can even be pruned into hedges. Queen Elizabeth was introduced in 1954 as the first grandiflora rose and is still readily available today. With its strong citrus fragrance, the 4-foot-tall Wild Blue Yonder grandiflora has a unique purple and lavender color with velvety petals. Called the acrobats of the rose world, climbers can be trained to grow on walls, fences, trellises, outhouses, and non-operational motor vehicles. Some varieties bloom once a season. Others bloom continuously. Climbers have a heavy spring and fall crop and can reach NBA heights. Case in point – the Raspberry Cream Twirl is a 12-footer with large striped blooms with above average disease resistance and very glossy foliage. It reminds me of a delicious parfait. There are also rose trees which are actually two or three different roses grafted together to create the root, stem and the top. Whichever type of rose you choose, it will be the right choice. Remember, gardening is cheaper than therapy. You can bury a lot of troubles digging in the dirt. All it takes is a little work. Maybe a little scotch too. A Poway resident, Schmidt has 40 years of gardening experience.

EDITORIAL

Election key to future of school district

here are several local elections ahead this year, but, in our view, none will carry as much importance as the fall contest for two seats on the Poway Unified School District Board of Education. The four-year terms of veteran board member Andy Patapow and one-term member Kimberly Beatty end in December. Patapow has said that he is retiring after 20 years, meaning there will be at least one open seat. Beatty this week disclosed she will seek re-election. Two years ago T.J. Zane, Michelle O’Connor-Ratcliff and Charles Sellers were elected to the five-member board. For the previous two years Beatty had been a political lone wolf on the board, questioning and often challenging district staff and (at times) other board members on a wide variety of topics. Following the 2014 election Beatty picked up a constant political ally in Sellers. Their comments at board meetings made their dissatisfaction with the performance of Supt. John Collins and certain top staff members apparent. For example, board approval of contract extensions for the three associate superintendents was postponed over such a long period that two of the three unexpectedly announced their retirements in February. Earlier this month Beatty suggested the board create a new position of deputy superintendent, who would report not to Collins, but to the board. Sellers endorsed the idea, while Zane and O’Connor seemed cool to it and Patapow was flatly opposed. In late March, backers of an effort to recall Patapow decided to fold their tent and instead focus on finding November candidates who see things their way: a district headed by someone other than Collins. With Beatty running for re-election this group needs only to elect one of their candidates to tilt the board against Collins. As noted in the space before, the conflicts being displayed by and around the current school board bear remarkable similarities to 20 years ago, when two board members repeatedly attacked the district administration. That situation festered to the point where a group of concerned parents created a coalition that sought out and endorsed a slate of three pro-administation candidates, each of whom were elected. A similar coalition was announced a few weeks ago. According to a press release, the group consists of parents, grandparents and educators, including retired Poway High School principal Scott Fisher. The group’s aim is to recruit and endorse candidates who are willing to act in the best interests of students and who will maintain the district’s reputation for excellence in education. The hope here, for the sake of everyone who cares about the quality of the PUSD, is that this new coalition is equally successful in achieving its goals.

OUR READERS WRITE Happy gardener I would like to send out a welcome to your new gardening columnist, Clarence Schmidt. I have already implemented a few of his ideas and appreciate the “local” knowledge. I took up gardening about five years ago, finding it to be an amazing stress reliever from hectic days. Who knew fighting weeds, rabbits, water restrictions and heat could actually be relaxing? I guess it’s mostly because of the reward. If I may, I would like to challenge everyone in our local region to donate 10 percent of all their produce to the Backyard Produce Garden located on Monte Vista, behind Pomerado Hospital. They are an amazing group of people who make sure people in need not only get food from local pantries but also fresh produce to balance out the diet. I would like to see Clarence address the issue of devouring rabbits. I haven’t found a solution yet. Doug Ferrin Poway (Editor’s note: Schmidt’s second monthly column appears this week on Page A17.)

Save the trees Returning home recently, my husband and I were amazed at the appearance of Poway. After the claustrophobic reality of Rancho Bernardo at rush hour; (the hot pavement, the wall-to-wall development, the plastic-looking shrubbery,) Poway was cool and peaceful and beautiful with tall, mature trees. As we drove on Espola Road, the horror of Rancho Bernardo fresh in our minds, we realized it’s the trees which make the difference. Come on, Poway leaders, you are the

“stewards” of “The City in he Country.” Do your duty and don’t cut down the 35 mature trees along Espola, (Our Readers Write, April 7.) Preserve them instead. Linda Tuan Poway

Pain in the pocketbook Local water providers, passing along our governor’s request, have been asking the end users — us — to reduce water use. We viewed this as a reasonable and responsible goal, so we complied. Yet upon that compliance, the water rates are increased, even after direct feedback to the water providers that this not such a good idea. In essence the end-user is penalized for compliance. The common sense thing is, why comply again? It hurts! It’s my opinion that the state should and must build more reservoirs. Compared, for example, to the bullet train project, more reservoirs provide benefits to all Californians. More water conservation? Meh, not if it’s painful to one’s budget. Frank Schmidt Rancho Bernardo

Prove need for center The City of Poway is not using cash existing for the staff’s pet project to rebuild the Community Center at $20+ million. Instead, they are going to issue bonds, which need to be repaid. There are a lot of questions about exactly what that means to us, the taxpayers of the city. We do not want a repeeat of the school bond fiasco. Tuesday night’s agenda report estimated a SEE LETTERS, A19

Consider This BY BARRY CRONIN

‘Gentle touch’ of discipline

arlier this month, you may have seen television coverage regarding the Texas high school teacher who was arrested for assaulting one of her students, slapping him on the top of the head and then mocking his response, “Why you did this?” Her name is Mary Hastings and she is a 63-year-old geometry teacher at Ozen High School in Beaumont, Texas. Needless to say, the response has been outrage. People are demanding the teacher be fired and charged with assault. She was subsequently released from jail on a $2,500 bond and is currently on paid administrative leave. There is apparently no federal law specifically prohibiting corporal punishment in schools, although no

school district anywhere in the nation may employ “cruel and unusual punishment” in violation of the Eighth Amendment. Rightfully so. Most states, including California, prohibit corporal punishment altogether in public schools. While Texas law does permit corporal punishment under certain conditions, Mary Hastings’ behavior was ultimately deemed unacceptable. According to the Beaumont Independent School District spokeswoman, “BISD does not condone employees abusing any child and will not tolerate such conduct.” According to a joint Human Rights Watch/ACLU report on corporal punishment in schools, students “may suffer serious physical injury and mental

Plastic bag vote likely irrelevant

hat if California voters repealed a law, but it remained the law anyway? That’s a situation the state may soon face if a proposition aiming to repeal a 2014 statewide ban on plastic grocery bags should pass in November. The statewide law also requires stores to offer paper bags for at least 10 cents each. The bottom line on this referendum measure, which qualified for the ballot within a mere five months of when legislators passed the plastic bag ban, is that it likely won’t matter much. In fact, there’s little effect from the fact that the state ban is not in force today, almost two years after it passed. Any law challenged by a referendum gets suspended until the outcome of the vote is official.

There’s a pretty simple reason why neither the vote nor the law’s suspension matters much: Many local governments have their own bans in place, 146 cities and counties – about one-third of all California communities, containing a large majority of the populace. Repealing the state law would not affect those laws. Try to get a supermarket plastic bag in any of California’s largest cities. Can’t do it in Los Angeles. Nor in San Francisco, nor anywhere in Los Angeles County, nor many others. This infuriates makers of plastic bags, which have pretty much disappeared from the shoulders of major highways they once littered. Grocers at first opposed the plastic bag bans, protesting the

inconvenience to themselves and their customers from forcing consumers to bring their own bags or buy paper ones at checkout counters. They’ve been converted and now support the bans. “Early polling is that consumers are adapting to no plastic bags,” Ronald Fong, head of the California Grocers Assn., told a reporter. “It’s really unfortunate that out-of-staters are sinking millions of dollars into telling us that we’re wrong here in California.” Altogether, more than $4 million has been raised to fight the statewide plastic bag ban, only a small fraction of it raised in California. An industry association, the American Progressive Bag Alliance, which represents the plastic bag industry nationally, raised more than $4

trauma. Studies show that beatings can damage the trust between educator and student, corrode the educational environment, and leave the student unable to learn effectively, making it more likely that she will drop out of school.” This is what the experts tell us. My own experience with corporal punishment in school was somewhat different. I went to a Catholic high school in the 1970s with a bunch of rambunctious Italian and Irish boys from the cities and towns north of Boston. For us, the occasional application of corporal punishment, that “gentle touch” of discipline, was simply a part of the core curriculum. I recall one day I threw something at another boy, striking him in the eye. Unfortunately for me, I never saw the good padre standing directly behind. Before I knew what happened, I was out of the chair and onto the floor. Picking me up by the lapels, he braced me up against a wall, stuck a fist in my face, and said, “Mister Cronin. How would you like a nice Hawaiian punch?” It was a great line from an old TV commercial. “Thanks Father,” I answered, “but some other time, if you don’t mind.” He smiled, tapped my face gently, and said “Good! Don’t do that again, understand?” I understood. million from its members shortly after the state ban passed. None came from California. Contributors were led by South Carolina’s Hilex Poly ($1.9 million), with companies like Superbag (Texas), Advance Polybag (Texas) and Formosa Plastics (New Jersey) also among big donors. “We believe California voters share our concerns and will make their voices heard at the ballot box,” the pro-plastic alliance’s director, Lee Califf, said in a statement. The statewide ban, he said, threatens thousands of jobs and will have “no meaningful effect on the environment.” While removing the statewide ban would not kill any of the local ones, it could perpetuate some confusion, as the state law was intended to standardize regulations that differ slightly among localities. What’s more, say backers – state and local – the bag bans are taking millions of unneeded bags off the street. “When they have to pay, customers avoid buying the bags,” Mark Murray, executive director of the group Californians Against Waste, said recently. He cited figures showing the number of grocery customers

Or another day in class where I was caught cutting up. “Mister Cronin! Are you here to learn,” the friar demanded, “or just waste everybody’s time?” Now, I was what was known as a “smart aleck” in the vernacular of the day. “Actually Brother, I was hoping to do a little bit of both.” Wrong answer. Bang! Back on the floor again. I eventually learned. The point is this: None of us were traumatized. We lost no trust in our teachers, nor did it prevent any of us from learning effectively. It was neither cruel nor excessive. On the contrary. We became better scholars and better behaved young men. I went from academic probation to honor roll student. I credit the “gentle touch” for that. And what is to become of Mary Hastings, the ex-geometry teacher from Beaumont, Texas? Ultimately, that will be up to the trier of fact. I for one wish her well. And her smirking little class disruptor who learned all the wrong lessons from this experience? He is just going to have to learn to discipline himself. Good luck with that. Cronin is a Poway resident and the assistant police chief at MCAS Miramar. Readers comments, through letters to the editor or online at PomeradoNews.com. are encouraged.

buying no bags (usually because they’ve brought their own) has jumped from about 10 percent to more than 35 percent. Califf and the pro-plastic group maintain the bag ban and fee have been “a massive, billion-dollar giveaway to grocers under the guise of environmentalism.” The plastics alliance hopes to qualify a second measure for a November vote, earmarking the 10-cent bag fees for environmental causes rather than letting grocers keep them. The state legislative analyst estimates this could provide $10 million or more to such causes, but nowhere near billions. The bottom line on this is that aside from any environmental benefits of banning plastic bags, this has devolved into a fight between two well-heeled interest groups: Grocers now love the ban on plastics because it gives them a new revenue source while they no longer must buy plastics. Meanwhile, the plastic bag companies desperately want back into the huge California market, something that’s looking more and more like a pipe dream. Elias is a syndicated columnist.

FROM LETTERS, A18 maximum of $700,000 for 30 years is required to pay back the bonds. Putting that into perspective, that is close to the cost of one new average home in Poway for 30 years. It would underground approximately 80 miles of utilities in Poway. It could build approximately 20 miles of reclaimed water pipelines through out the city. City staff recommends this project based on what? There are no survey results that support the project. They have asked if people would like a community center — sure, who doesn’t. But did they ask if it was a high priority? What we would trade for the project? According to the Poway Comprehensive Plan, “Policy 1.a The City shall perform a survey of residents to ascertain the priorities of the community in regard to park and recreation facilities.” Where are the survey results? Please require a proper survey before proceeding. Let’s digest the results, and then make informed, balanced recommendations that are in keeping with the results. Please write to City Hall and demand a survey that is required by Comprehensive Plan. R. W. “Nick” Stavros Poway

FROM PASSOVER, A2 historic liberation of an ancient people,” Rabbi Mendel Goldstein said. “Passover is about our own personal liberation — physically, emotionally and spiritually. Passover inspires us to break free from the shackles restraining us from reaching new heights in our lives, relationships and connection with God.” Daryl Foster, store director of the Rancho Bernardo Albertsons, said he met with one of the rabbis a couple weeks before the store’s recent opening to see how it can better serve the area’s Jewish community. “We have a very high demographic here and so, a very large Passover section, the largest in San Diego,” Foster said. The store provided treats for the children after the event, in addition to the grape juice — another significant component — and items needed to create matzah. “It was super fun,” said 6-year-old Ally Germain. “I really enjoyed it,” said Meir Rubenfeld, 12. “It was fun and interactive. ... You have (make matzah) really fast.” Jacob Manowitz, 11, said this was his first time making matzah. “It was cool,” he said.

IN GOOD HANDS

RB High’s Bowers named Athletic Trainer of the Year BY MICHAEL BOWER An athlete hits the turf and doesn’t get back up. The trainers rush onto the field. The crowd sits in silence. Parents sit with the deepest of concerns. And suddenly, every minute that kid is down on the field feels like an hour. If you’ve been to a high school athletic event, you likely know the scene. Longtime Rancho Bernardo High Robbie Bowers Athletic Trainer Robbie Bowers certainly does. At that moment, he becomes the most important man in the stadium. But what many might not realize is just how important he is at every other moment, too. “He is more than just an athletic trainer here at RB High,” Broncos Athletic Director Peggy Brose said. “He is very much a valued member of our staff. What he does goes beyond working with athletes and coaches. Everybody on our campus knows and respects Robbie.” And so do his fellow athletic-training colleagues.

Robbie Bowers, right, helps a football player off the field during this past season. Bowers was recently named the co-Athletic Trainer of the Year by the San Diego High Schools Athletic Trainers’ Association. He and Niki Dehner of Francis Parker School are the first winners of the inaugural award. The award is “given to athletic trainers who have demonstrated a commitment to protecting student

athletes and the community, and upholding the standards of the profession,” according to a media release. “It is nice to have the recognition,” said the 51-year-old Bowers, who has been the head athletic trainer at Rancho Bernardo High since the school opened in 1990. “It is kind of weird. I don’t

know how to put it modestly, but it kind of is no big deal because I already feel respected and appreciated. There is not a day that goes by without a coach or administrator thanking me, so I feel validated that way already. But for my peers to recognize me, it is a little more special.” Bowers, a San Diego State

graduate and current perceptor for the university’s athletic training program, was nominated for the Athletic Trainer of the Year Award by Mt. Carmel’s trainer Diane Lawrence. Lawrence is a former mentee of Bowers. “Robbie knows everyone,” she said, according to the release. “Those who call upon him know that they will not be let down with the quality of work and care he puts into treating student athletes.” And Bowers is often called upon for many different things. He serves as a liaison for the San Diego Section, scheduling trainers at championship games, educating administrators on athletic training and advocating for appropriate athletic training medical coverage at CIF events. He oversees weight management for wrestling and mentors soon-to-be-professional trainers. “It is not a job to him, it is a passion,” Brose said. “He trained C.J. (Hernandez, Poway High’s trainer) and Diane. Robbie has not only left a legacy and mark here at our school, he has left one throughout the district and the county.” SEE TRAINER, B4

Game at the Lake between Poway, RB hits 20 years

BY TERRY MONAHAN It’s a special time for softball in Poway and Rancho Bernardo. This is Game at the Lake Week, the annual battle between Poway and Rancho Bernardo that takes place during the first week of Palomar League play. The game on Friday at Lake Poway pits defending San Diego Section Open Division champion Poway, ranked No. 2 in the county, against No. 9 Rancho Bernardo at 7 p.m. What makes the game a bit more than just another softball game is that this is the 20th time the rivals have met for the doubleheader — the junior varsity game precedes the varsity game — at the lake. Poway leads the series 10-9. And it all began as a one-time thing when Poway coach Jim Bennet, then the Titans’ JV coach, told varsity coach Jeff Lusk he’d like to see the varsity plays just once. “I still wouldn’t trade this game for anything,’’ Bennet said. “I never thought it would last beyond just that first

year, but Jeff and I thought it went well so we thought why not continue it. “I never thought it would last 20 years.’’ Poway, Rancho Bernardo and Mt. Carmel played night games at the lake until Mt. Carmel was shifted to a different league, leaving Poway and Rancho Bernardo to continue on alone. Poway and Rancho Bernardo began playing in 1997 with the Broncos besting Poway in the first three meetings. The Titans finally broke through with a win in 2000 in a very weird game known simply as The Sprinkler Game. With two outs in the seventh inning and Poway holding a slim 4-3 lead, the sprinklers at the lake automatically turned on, forcing a halt to the end of the Friday night game. The two teams met the following week, warmed up completely and, four pitches later, the Titans recorded the final out. “That was my most memorable game at the lake,’’ former SEE SOFTBALL, B4

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Titans’ Downs enjoys hiding then seeking on track BY TERRY MONAHAN If you’re looking for Poway High’s Michael Downs during one of his races, you may have a difficult time spotting him. He, like most distance runners, dislikes jumping to the front of the pack right off the bat. “It’s way too stressful up there,’’ said Downs. “You can’t see anyone behind you, and when someone passes the leader it can be demoralizing.’’ So Downs, a junior, settles into the middle of the pack for the first two laps when he’s running the 1,600-meter. “I prefer hiding in the pack,’’ Downs said, chuckling. “I just chill in the first lap. The second lap is critical because I have to be ready to go from there. “I give everything I have left in the final two laps. “There is hardly any talking in the pack. It’s surprisingly quiet. Usually all you hear are guys breathing hard.’’ Downs is part of the Palomar League’s three-headed corps of accomplished milers at Poway. Along with Colin Jensen and Jarett Chinn, they are three-quarters of the team’s distance medley relay squad that has been smashing school records all spring. The distance medley is broken into four parts with one runner going 1,200 meters, the next one going 400 meters, the third one going 80 meters with Downs covering the final 1,600 meters in the 4,000-meter race, or about 2.5 miles. At the annual Arcadia Invitational, Poway finished fifth in 10-minutes, 20.99 seconds, eclipsing the school record. That mark was also the eighth-best mark

in the nation this year. “We didn’t perform well in the 4X800 relay earlier that day,’’ Downs said. “That was our motivation. “It’s more of a big deal to us than anyone else. “Then again, eighth place isn’t first, so until we’re first we’ve still got some work to do.’’ On April at the Mt. SAC Relays, Poway again smashed its own school record with yet another fifth-place finish in 10:19.30. Because the distance medley relay race is run only in invitationals, Poway’s

His PR (personal record) in the 800 is 1:58.8 while his best mark in the 1,600 is the 4:27 he posted last season. By the time he graduates next spring Downs wants to have those PR marks down to 1:54 in the 800 and 4:15 in the 1,600. “I think I can get there, but it will mean a lot of mileage in the offseason before cross country in the fall,’’ Downs said. “Cross country is actually more interesting than track because you’re running all over the place, with more runners and different conditions like rain and bad weather. “That being said, I kind of prefer the transition from cross country than going from track to cross country.’’ Downs thought about playing basketball before his freshman year at Poway. A torn medial collateral ligament (MCL) kept him shelved long enough for him to discard his plans about basketball and concentrate on running. And when he’s not running during cross country season in the fall, track season in the spring and going to classes, Downs has one desire. “I love to sleep,’’ he said. “With everything I have going on, there’s not a lot of time to sleep. “Most days it school, run, dinner, homework, go to bed.’’

record-setting run will have to wait until next year when Downs, Chinn and Saimon Georgari, who are all juniors, will be back on the track for Poway. For now, it’s time to concentrate on putting that record-setting skills on display Monahan is a freelance writer. for the remainder of the San Diego Section. “It’s almost May, so that makes it championship season,’’ Downs said.

PREP BOYS GOLF

Broncos looking to relive stellar 2014 season BY DANA LOHR Two years ago, the Rancho Bernardo High boys golf team finished second at the state championship. This year, the Broncos hope to repeat the success of that magical season. “So far, so good” said Rancho Bernardo coach Rich Deem. “If we play the way we are playing right now, I think we have a pretty good chance to repeat that (2014) season.” The Broncos, ranked No. 2 in the county behind Torrey Pines, plans to keep the momentum going and they are confident that they are on the road to contending for the section title. With the return of four Rancho Bernardo veterans, the Broncos are excited to welcome two new faces to their top six. The team features 15 athletes total, including outstanding junior players Zihao Jin and Steve Sugimoto and seniors Harrison Mahon and Taisei Negishi. “The seniors lead by example,” Deem said. “They’re very consistent. They care about each other, they care about the team and that comes from the top. They want the team to be successful and that’s all that matters.” In a sport that is known for its individual efforts, Deem stresses that the Broncos excel at recognizing the value of teamwork and cooperation. “Our strengths are that the kids really care about being a part of the team and not letting everyone down. The camaraderie that they have is by far our greatest strength.” Standouts Mahon and Negishi concur with

The Rancho Bernardo High boys golf team. Deem’s team-first philosophy. Mahon is in his first year at Rancho Bernardo after attending three years of high school in Texas. He will follow in his father’s golf footsteps and continue his career at UCLA. “Although it doesn’t seem as though there is much of a team aspect, golf is more enjoyable playing with your teammates and friends,” Mahon said. “I always try to keep my partners’ heads high and keep them thinking positively regardless of how they’re playing. That’s what makes golf unique.” University of Michigan-bound Negishi said: “I like playing for a team, there’s more of a higher goal. You are not just playing for yourself because you want to play well for your team.”

COURTESY PHOTO

The Broncos emphasis on camaraderie has served to create a tightly-knit bunch, bringing the team close and creating a dynamic that the boys describe as “fun and goofy.” That’s not to say Rancho Bernardo does not have its share of potential pitfalls. “If they have a weakness, it is going for it when they shouldn’t.” Deem said, referencing his team’s aggressive style of play and reluctance to lay balls up instead of shooting for the pin. Despite heeding his coach’s advice, co-captain Sugimoto admits that there are times when the urge to throw caution to the wind is irresistible. “I like the individual aspect of the game,” he

said. “You can focus on your game rather than what other players do. You have more control of the game.” The top four athletes on the Broncos all began playing at a young age, varying between ages 5 and 9. All the boys agreed they were “born into the sport.” “My dad grew up playing golf and his dad grew up playing golf,” Mahon said. “I was pretty much born into a golfer family. I stuck with golf because I was better at it than any other sports. Plus, golf brings people together. It’s a real family sport. Golf helps people create a closer connection to each other, unlike other sports whose players are normally all on their own.” Mahon said he models his play after former PGA starFuzzy Zoeller “because of his persona and attitude.” Sugimoto says his inspiration does not come from the current pro ranks, but rather from “my older brother who also plays golf and is starting out professionally.” Mahon and Negishi are looking forward to continuing their golf careers in college. Mahon made his decision to be a future Bruin for several reasons. “My Dad played at UCLA in the 1980s and I want to carry on the Mahon name,” he said. “I also like the system there. They bring in and produce good players. I’m really looking forward to it. It should be a great experience.” As for Negishi, his choice to become a SEE BRONCOS, B4

Golf Tips with Chris BY CHRIS MAYSON

Dial in your distance wedges

constantly work with my PGA Tour and LPGA Tour players on my Trackman dialing in accurate yardages for their distance wedge game. The proximity to the pin on these shots often dictates whether they can take advantage of the par 5 and short par 4 holes, make lots of birdies, and shoot really low scores. Here I am working with Rancho Bernardo High’s No. 1, Taisei Negishi, who will be going to play golf at the University of Michigan this fall. With my players I use a very simple but effective way to control the variables of yardage, trajectory and spin of the ball with the wedges; it is called the Clock System. Imagine yourself as a clock with your head at 12 o’clock and the ball at 6 o’clock. You will have three positions on the clock that will help you change the variables of your wedge. Nine o’clock to 3 o’clock (photos one and two), 10 o’clock to 2 o’clock (photos three and four) and a full swing. The 9 o’clock shot will be the shortest swing and therefore will go lower, have less spin and will go about 20 yards shorter than your full swing. The 10 o’clock shot will go slightly lower than your full swing and about 10 yards shorter. Your full swing

will be the highest trajectory shot, spin the most and have the most yardage. If you practice these positions at the range and dial in some consistent distances for each wedge and each position, you will be making more birdies in no

time at all. You should have three different yardages for each wedge. You can write the yardages on your wedge so that you don’t forget them! — Mayson is the Director of Instruction at Maderas Golf Academy.

FROM BRONCOS, B3 Wolverine was an easy one. “They have good academics and their athletics are pretty solid,” he said. “I also like the coach a lot and that’s important for me in choosing a school.” While some athletes experience added pressure to perform for their soon-to-be college as well as their school, both Mahon and Negishi say that it is a relief to have the decision behind them. “Knowing where I’m going to school is more

Please submit scoops to sports editor Michael Bower via email at sports@pomeradonews.com like a weight lifted off of my shoulders,” Mahon said. For now, the challenge for Rancho Bernardo is to ward off their top competitors, most likely Torrey Pines and Carlsbad. St. Augustine also looks formidable, as evident by the Broncos’ recent one-stroke victory; a win that was not decided until the final stroke of the final hole. “We have to keep our heads in the present,” Sugimoto said. “For the rest of the season we just need to keep it going, we are getting prepared for CIF.” Lohr is a freelance writer.

FROM TRAINER, B1 Bowers says he has “always felt lucky to fall into” the profession. He says he was an average athlete and student. He didn’t always stand out. But something clicked when he found athletic training. “I found this field and I started to excel academically,” he said. “I fell into the right assignment at the right time. I got the right experience at the right time and the right exposure. It’s almost like this was crafted.” And he wouldn’t have it any other way. Bowers has enjoyed every second of his time at Rancho Bernardo. He has a bunch of fond memories, including a few with some of the current coaching staff when they were students at the school. “About 12 of our coaches were former athletes here so that is kind of neat,” he said. “(Basketball coach Marc Basehore, football coach Tristan McCoy) and all those guys I

FROM SOFTBALL, B1 Broncos coach Tracy Stowe said. “Almost from the start, the game became an awesome tradition under the lights so more people could watch. “It was unreal how well it took off. To me, there were only pros to play the game there, no cons. “Now it’s engrained into the culture of Poway-RB softball.’’ Last year’s game, played in front of an estimated crowd of more than 500 softball fans including fans from other teams, might have been the best game of the series. After crossing their fingers all day that the rain would hold off long enough to get the field ready, Rancho Bernardo scored a pair of runs in the top of the 12th inning only to have Poway

remember when they were 14-year-old kids. “But I have had some great experiences and a lot of them have nothing to do with winning or losing. To just see a kid achieve something that wasn’t placed on them by a coach or sometimes it’s just helping a kid get healthy enough to suit up for senior night or to play one last game their senior season. There are a lot of memories over the last 26 years.” Bowers has no plans to leave the school anytime soon. He still gets along great with the students. He often jokes with them that the reason they call it RB High is because it is Robbie Bowers High School. “In 14 years I will be 65,” he said. “I question if I will be able to connect with a 14-16 year old when I am 65. If I can still make that connection, where they trust and believe in me and follow me lead as I try to care for them, then what else would I do but follow this purpose that I have.”

roar back with three runs to end the three-hour struggle. Poway scored one run on an error and another on Morgan Lutticken’s single, setting the stage for Gabby Callaway’s run-scoring single to left. “That’s how most games at the lake have gone,’’ Bennet said, noting that only a 7-2 win the Broncos in 2009 is the only blowout. “I can’t remember the last time I left the lake thinking we’d just played in an ugly game.’’ Besides three extra-inning games and the Sprinkler Game, another highlight of the series is the no-hitter pitched by Poway’s Mandy Brown in 2002, the year the Titans went on to win their first section title. Rancho Bernardo coach Summer Boyle played shortstop four times at the lake for the Broncos, losing

three times and winning 1-0 in 2004. This will be the eighth time she’s coached the Broncos at the lake. Thanks to Poway winning the last four games there after Rancho Bernardo strung together a five-game winning streak, Boyle enters with a 3-4 record at the lake. “When I played in that game I was never nervous, not like I am as the coach,’’ said Boyle, whose maiden name was Downs. “I tell the girls this almost resembles a CIF Final because of the atmosphere. “This is a game the girls should remember forever.’’ Bennet is 7-6 at the lake against the Broncos. “As good as it is to be there watching that game,’’ said Bennet, “it’s 10 times better to be a part of it on the field.’’

t Mathnasium, we help students in grades 1 to 12 reach their full potential in math by teaching in a way that makes sense to them. Our programs are designed to fill gaps, build confidence, dare we say, “make math fun?” Kids catch up and often leap way ahead – whether they started behind, or are already advanced in math. We’ll help your students retain all they learned in math class this year, so they’re well-equipped for a strong start in the fall. With school out of session, summer can be tons of fun – but it can also lead to a loss of academic skills called the "summer slide." Luckily, Mathnasium is here to stop the decline! The Mathnasium summer

program allows for drop-in sessions for students on a flexible schedule. Our initial assessment helps the talented Mathnasium team develop an individualized learning plan for each student, and later, a progress report to document growth and achievement by the end of summer. Students can close gaps from the previous year, deepen problem solving skills, build up their mastery of math facts and number sense, get a refresher for an upcoming course, or get a head start on skills they will learn in the next grade! The Mathnasium Method has demonstrated great success in helping kids catch up, keep up or get ahead in math. Call now!

Poway Symphonette to preview China concert Get a sneak peek of some of the music the Poway Symphonette will be performing on their Chinese concert tour. The group will be performing a concert at 3 p.m. Saturday, April 30 at the Rancho Bernardo Library, 17110 Bernardo Center Drive. This concert is part of the Discovery Concert Series and is free and open to all ages. The Poway Symphonette is a chamber orchestra that is run through the Poway Adult School, specializing in Baroque and classical music. “It’s a Baroque ensemble, but everyone is a soloist,” said Ulli Reiner, artistic director of the Poway Symphonette as well as a performer in the group. “(Because a Baroque orchestra is so small) everyone is really responsible for being a soloist.” They will be performing the “Concerto Grosso Opus 6, no. 9” by Corelli, “Prelude no. 1 in C major” by Bach, and “Concerto Grosso in D minor, no. 11, op. 3” by Vivaldi. The orchestra will also perform the famous Chinese folk song “Jasmine Flower (Mo Li Hua)” for string orchestra, to conclude the concert. They will also close their concerts in China with this song. The Chinese tour, which will be called “Taste of China,” will take 20

The Poway Symphonette members of the Poway Symphonette to perform in concert halls in Beijing, Xian and Shanghai. The performers will be leaving for China in early July. While in China, they will accompany a traditional Mongolian choir in performing. “We’re really excited, especially to be invited and to accompany the Mongolian choir,” said Reiner in a press release.

Reiner said the orchestra would be playing a more complex set list in China, adding in “Concerto in G major” by Vivaldi, which will feature Reiner on solo violin; the “Brandenburg Concerto no. 5” by Bach, which will feature Dr. Ching Ming Cheng on piano and Jan Masur, owner of Ozzy’s Music in Poway as the solo flutist; and the “Decorah Bald Eagle Violin Concerto,” by Madelyn

Byrne, a professor at Palomar College. Reiner said the orchestra would be performing the “spring” section of the violin concerto, which has four sections focusing each on a season in the lives of a pair of mated bald eagles. The spring section represents the nurturing of the pair’s newly-hatched eaglets. “I asked Madelyn Byrne if we could bring her spring section (to China) to

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: KATHLEEN ZAWORSKI-BURKE, aka KATHLEEN M.

The petition for Probate requests that JOHN ZAWORSKI BURKE be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

Kitchen Shrink’s Key Lime Blisscotti

In the limelight with lemon’s close cousin

he produce aisles are popping with mounds of vibrant emerald citrus — lemon’s petite and lively relative. Limes pack a bitter lip puckering punch, more acidic with less sugar than lemons, while enjoying their own flavor profile. Growing up I didn’t cotton to this green beauty as my dad always slathered on a sickeningly sweet lime-scented after-shave lotion that made the real fruit off-putting to me. Years later, I’ve embraced this sassy citrus to dial up everything from salsas, ceviches, stir fries and rice dishes to cocktails, mocktails and key lime cookies and pies. Here’s a primer on this zippy little squirt. The Lime’s Lineage Limes are natives of Southeast Asia with probable origins in Indonesia. Arab traders transported these green gems to eastern Mediterranean climes in the 900’s. From there, limes trickled into Spain via the Arab Muslim Empire, where they were cultivated throughout Europe. Columbus has been credited with bringing limes to the West Indies, while Spanish explorers introduced them to Florida, still a major lime producer today, along with Mexico, Spain and India. Juice It Up Lime’s best asset is its immune boosting Vitamin C load. This was recognized by the British Royal Navy

in the early 1800s. Sailors were given a daily ration of lime or lemon juice added to their grog (diluted rum) to ward off scurvy, bringing about the moniker “limey.” Limes also have a rich store of Vitamin A for skin and ocular health, calcium and phosphorus to amp up bone strength, potassium for fluid balance, magnesium to dial up energy, while maintaining the heart and blood vessels, folate for normal cellular development during pregnancy, and important trace minerals, including zinc, selenium, and copper. Key to Success The Persian or Tahitian lime, a hybrid cross, closely resembles a lemon in shape, but usually slightly smaller with a delicate green rind, and a seedless, redolent light green pulp. The Key lime (also called Mexican or Bartender’s lime) from Florida is smaller and sourer than its lime sibling, rounder in shape with yellow nuances in its thinner skin, along with seeds. When picking limes choose smooth, glossy, supple-skinned ones without blemishes, shriveled rind or brown spots. They should have good heft, be firm, but also yield to pressure. Your Main Squeeze Spunky and refreshing, the lime’s peel or zest, juice, pulp and even leaves are attention grabbers in a wide range of drinks, dishes, and

■ Ingredients: • 3 eggs • 1 cup of white cane sugar • 1/2 cup of vegetable oil (I prefer grape seed or safflower) • 1 tablespoon of fresh squeezed Key lime juice • Zest from 2 Key limes • A few drops of vanilla or almond extract • 3 cups of unbleached flour • 3 teaspoons of baking powder • A pinch of salt • 1 teaspoon of Key lime liqueur/schnapps (optional) • 1 cup of chopped, toasted nuts (pecans, macadamias, almonds, your choice) ■ Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat eggs and sugar in a large bowl. Add the oil, extract, liqueur and juices. In a separate bowl,

condiments in various ethnic cuisines. Limeade, flavored sparkling lime water, margaritas and gimlets quench a parched thirst, while lime twists, wedges or slices make eye popping garnishes to cocktails and beers. Use lime to dial up risottos and pastas, taboulis and stir-fries, grilled chicken and wild caught salmon, halibut and sea bass. Perk up corn and green salads and slaws, salsas and seafood cocktails with chile-lime dressings. Grate zest into cookies, cakes, quick breads,

combine remaining dry ingredients. Blend the flour mixture with the egg mixture gradually until it forms a dough ball. On a parchment-lined cookie sheet, form four oblong loaves. Bake 20-25 minutes. Remove the loaves and cut into slices, 1-inch wide. Return to the cookie sheet, placing the fingers sideways. Bake for another 10 minutes or until golden brown, turning the biscotti mid-way. Serve with coconut ice cream or citrus-flavored gelato or sorbet. — For more lime recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

cheesecakes, scones, pancakes, jams and preserves. Or whip up the iconic Key Lime Pie, a Floridian concoction that is beloved worldwide. Cook’s Tips Like lemon juice, squirt lime juice on fresh cut fruits like bananas, apples and avocados to preventing oxidation or browning. For the sodium-conscious, use lime juice as a salt substitute.When juicing limes, store at room temperature, and roll several times with your palm against a hard surface to increase the juice yield.

Recent rains have increased wildfire danger BY COUNTY NEWS CENTER If you thought the El Niño rains this season lowered the region’s wildfire risk, you’re going to be disappointed. Unfortunately, they may have done the opposite: increased the fire hazards. Enough rain has fallen to sprout thicker-than-usual wild grasses and weeds in open spaces, the backcountry and likely your own backyard. This growth can pose a problem, serving as “fuel” for wildfires and helping strengthen flames. So what can be done? San Diego County residents can get wildfire ready and reduce such risks, county and fire officials said on April 14. “The threat of wildfires is a fact of life in San Diego County,” said Board of Supervisors Chairman Ron Roberts. “Experience has shown us that those who maintain low-fuel defensible space around their homes better protect their property, and the lives of those who will defend it, against fire.” “Be prepared, everyone. It looks like we’re entering a tougher-than-usual wildfire season due to our thick grass and other fuels across the region,” said County Supervisor Dianne Jacob. “Now is the time to start trimming back brush and take other steps to protect your family and property. What you do this spring to prepare

Experts say there is an increased risk of brush fire due to the drought and recent El Niño rains.

your home could make a huge difference when wildfire season hits.” San Diego County Fire Chief Tony Mecham, who also serves as CalFire San Diego Unit Chief, said CalFire has staffed up the stations in the unincorporated areas a few weeks earlier than usual and has air tankers assigned to the county. The fire season could be challenging due to the abundant “fuels” or grasses that have risen around the region. These plants may be

green now but will turn brown soon due to the enduring drought. “Please do not be fooled by the recent rains,” Mecham said. “Complacency is dangerous. We are still in severe drought with levels well below normal rainfall, which has created hazardous conditions in San Diego County.” To learn more about how to better safeguard your family and property, check out the Ready, Set, Go: Personal Wildland Fire Action Guide at

tinyurl.com/ReadySetGoSD and visit ReadySanDiego.org or ListoSanDiego.org in Spanish to prepare for wildfires and other emergencies. It’s important that residents stay connected and informed before, during and after emergencies, said County Office of Emergency Services Director Holly Crawford. She suggested that residents register their cell phones and email addresses with AlertSanDiego at tinyurl.com/AlertSD and download the county’s free SD Emergency App in English or Spanish at tinyurl.com/SDEmerApp. The app also offers information in American Sign Language and in a text size that is adjustable. The County also posts emergency information on Twitter at ReadySanDiego or ListoSanDiego (in Spanish). “Residents can get ready for any emergency by taking steps now to connect with official emergency notifications, assemble an evacuation kit and practice what to do if officials advise you the area is no longer safe — or if there is a threat to your home while you are not home,” Crawford said. “Find a family disaster plan template on ReadySanDiego.org or on the app and start planning how you, your family, neighbors and pets will all get to a safe location if necessary.”

Ask Mr. Marketing BY ROB WEINBERG

Be careful with your political views

or the first time in 40 years I’m buying a childhood favorite: Nestlé Crunch bars. My hiatus was prompted by a college-era boycott on anything Nestlé, due to their practices selling baby formula to Africa’s poor. Though officially ended a few years back, the Nestlé boycott was still alive and well in my mind. When organized properly, these powerful tools hit an “offender’s” pocketbook to get policies changed. Disney threatened a Georgia filming boycott over undesirable legislation. Hobby Lobby is embargoed by progressives. Levi’s is targeted by conservatives. The list is endless. In each case, supporting Group A for humanitarian, economic, religious, or political reasons upsets Group B. Although most calls for boycotts are bluffs, if Group B is sufficiently angry, organized, and funded that threat becomes a reality. Granted, companies with deep pockets can survive the negative publicity, rallies, and lost profits. But what if your pockets aren’t deep? Potential boycotts are worth considering in today’s angry political environment. Each time you share your beliefs in social media, you risk irritating customers who disagree with you. The temporary satisfaction you get from

posting a meme comparing Trump to Hitler or Hillary to the Wicked Witch may ultimately drive away business. Rodney King famously asked “Can’t we all just get along?” Sadly, the answer’s “No!” Still, if we lower the conversation’s tenor from shouting to civilized discourse without name-calling, we’ll all be much better off. By all means debate positions and policies. But remember the potential impacts on your business. Then, before you start posting conspiracy theories, try not to offend the very people you’re attempting to charm into your store. Walter Cronkite, for decades America’s most trusted news broadcaster, was invited to run for vice president in 1980. He declined, observing: “Everyone loves me today, but it’s largely because they don’t know my positions on all the issues.” We can all learn from him. You want to grow your business. Think how disrespectful political posturing on your part may drive your customers into someone else’s arms. And recognize how long people will willingly sacrifice their favorite things in the name of their own principals. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Air Superiority has your rodent issues covered

ired of dealing with gophers, ground squirrels and other rodents in your yard? Air Superiority can help you rein in the rats in a unique way. Air Superiority, owned and operated by Tom Stephan out of Ramona, sells barn owl boxes that can be mounted on 16-foot metal poles or in tall trees. These boxes are designed to attract barn owls, who will live in the box and feed on the rodents surrounding your property. “There are three methods of rodent control,” said Stephan. “There’s poison, there’s traps, and there are barn owls.” Stephan said that poisoning rodents is only effective about 20 percent of the time, and the rodents become used to eating poison. Poisoning rodents also leads to the death of baby barn owls, he said, and using traps means handling the bodies of the rodents. Both methods also only deal with rodents after they’ve invaded your property, he said. “Barn owls will hunt on your property and around it, preventing (the rodents) from getting to your property. Barn owls can consume up to 2,000 rodents a year, said Stephan. Boxes are required to attract barn owls to your property because they are vulnerable to crows during the day and need a safe place to hide. Stephan recommends buying two boxes, as the male of a breeding pair will be kicked out of the female’s box once eggs are laid, so he will need his own box. Air Superiority offers three styles of barn

owl boxes, ranging from basic to luxury. The largest, “Hoo’s Hoo,” has an optional camera that can be installed so homeowners can get an up-close look at the owls living on their property. For an additional fee, Stephan will also install the box on your property, which will ensure it is in the right location and at the right height to attract barn owls. For Stephan, birds of prey have been an obsession since childhood. “I wanted to be a

falconer as a kid,” said Stephan. “I cut my teeth as a falconer as a kid in Poway. I climbed up to every raptor nest (I saw) as a kid, so when I needed a job, I became a tree trimmer.”

Stephan spent 20 years in the tree trimming business, and in 1992, was bidding for a job when he spotted an owl box hanging low on a large sycamore tree in her yard. The woman mentioned that her late husband had installed the box, and sadly no owls had ever nested in it. “I said that I’d throw in properly installing the box with my bid, and she accepted.” Three days later, Stephan said she called him, saying a pair of barn owls had begun nesting in the box. Since that first box, Stephan said he has installed about 32,000 owl boxes. “That’s a lot of boxes,” he said. The boxes weren’t originally marketed as rodent control, but after several years of reports from clients on their effectiveness, Stephan began marketing the boxes as such. In addition to years of experience with birds of prey and installing owl boxes, Stephan also uses a proprietary formula in his boxes to keep bees away, as bees can take over a box for a hive. “It’s guaranteed to keep bees away for the life of the box,” he said. To find out more about barn owl boxes or to purchase one for your yard, call 760-445-2023 or visit barnowlboxes.com.
