State designates OPMS a model middle school

n an email Monday morning to all Ramona Uniﬁed School District employees, Supt. Robert Graeff sent “a royal congratulations” to the staff, parents and students at Olive Peirce Middle School for being one of only four

for the school and for the entire district,” said Graeff. “To achieve the status of a ‘School to Watch,’ a school is expected to establish norms, structures and organizational arrangements to support and sustain their trajectory toward

excellence. How proud we all are of the tremendous work at our comprehensive middle school. Congratulations on receiving this tremendous honor!”

By KAREN BRAINARD A 6-year-old special needs child who lived in the 1000 block of Olive St. died in his sleep early Tuesday morning from complications as a victim of child abuse, according to an adoptive family member. The boy, identiﬁed as Sam, was one of four special needs children adopted by Chris Dahlke, said Dahlke’s daughter, Barbara Smith. “He was a shaken baby and he had severe trauma from that initial injury,” said Smith. Those injuries caused him to be blind, non-communicative and have heart problems, she said. The boy was hooked to monitors, she added. Paramedics from the Ramona Fire Department were unable to perform any life-saving measures, said Smith. After detectives from the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department were called about 12:28 a.m, they

The Ramona Rodeo royalty wore their new matching Breast Cancer Awareness outfits, and their horses sported matching breast collars and tail ribbons.

Ramona’s 19th Annual Community Christmas Tree Lighting, presented by Ramona Chamber of Commerce, promises lots of old-fashioned fun — including an opportunity to sit on Santa’s lap — in Collier Park in the 600 block of E Street from 5 to 8 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 3. Music, entertainment, Christmas craft centers, face painting, cookie decorating, a live nativity, and food and vendors are among festivities planned. Santa will arrive about 5:15 p.m., and children will have the opportunity to have their picture taken as they share their Christmas wishes with him. Photos by Jeanne Wood Photography will be $5 each. Chamber President Jason DeLeo will light the Christmas tree and it will remain lighted through Dec. 26. “Please bring a lawn chair or a blanket to sit and watch the show,” said Honorary Mayor Sharon Davis. “We have almost two hours of entertainment lined up.”

Clinic redesign gets design board endorsement By KAREN BRAINARD Palomar Pomerado Health (PPH) is one step closer to building its medical clinic on 13th Street, now that Ramona Design Review Board has approved a modified design for the one-story, 7,600-squarefoot building. In October, design review board members were critical of the proposed architectural style, calling it dated and requesting the continuous roofline be broken, a more prominent entry be created and several other changes. “They came back with a beautiful design.

did everything we asked,” said Design Review Board Chair Debi Klingner. “They got unanimous approval.” The board viewed the redesign at its Nov. 17 meeting. Changes included adding dormers to break up the ridgeline, redesigning the front canopy to make the south elevation entry more prominent, and adding more glass and wood siding to create more of a presence on 13th Street. Mascari Warner Architects have been working with PPH on the clinic, which

will sit on .91 acres across from the Ramona Library and the future Ramona Intergenerational Community Campus (RICC). With a total of three acres at the site, PPH officials say they have the room for possible expansion. The Ramona clinic will contain urgent care and primary care. Michael Shanahan, director of facilities planning development for PPH, said the public hospital district hopes to break ground in April 2012. “We’re waiting for comments from Ramona water

district,” said Shanahan. Those comments are needed to finish documents for the county building permit and approval process, he said. “We’re already starting our working documents,” Shanahan said. “We’re trying to parallel our efforts. The desire at this point is to move as quickly as possible to get the clinic built.” In other business at the design review board meeting: •Architect and former design review member Carole Wylie presented

preliminary plans for a Starbucks at the Bank of Southern California at Main and 13th streets. The Starbucks would be across from the library and next door to the future PPH clinic. Plans include a drive-through for the coffee house. Klingner said that, although it would be exciting for Ramona, she is concerned about the impact it would have on other local coffee houses. •The board approved signage design for Fresh and Easy in the Sun Valley shopping center. There is no word yet when the market will open. •The County Board of Supervisors approved the nomination of Michiyo Kirkpatrick as a new member of the design review board. •Due to the holidays, the design review board’s next meeting will be at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 15. County staff from the Department of Planning and Land Use will give a presentation, explaining a new streamlined site plan permit process for communities with a design review board.

Water district may join fight over proposed solar fee By KAREN BRAINARD With two solar projects in the works, the Ramona Municipal Water District is going to consider if it wants to join a coalition of public agencies fighting San Diego Gas & Electric’s proposal to charge fees to solar customers. SDG&E filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission in early October for the new rate structure. RMWD Legal Counsel Sophie Akins of Best, Best & Krieger LLP, (BBK) brought up SDG&E’s proposal at the water board’s Nov. 22 meeting. She referred to a North County Times article published the previous day that had some public agency officials, including the Valley Center water district general manager, saying they would lose on their solar investments if the SDG&E rate takes effect. “BBK’s representing a coalition of 10 agencies — school districts, the county water authority and water agencies — who currently have solar in the ground either through direct ownership or under a power purchase agreement,” said Akins. “We’re at a very preliminary stage in the proceedings. “We’re just in the process of determining the actual impact of the proposal on our agencies, on our clients’ solar systems.” Akins said SDG&E is basically propos-

Because the proposed solar rate was “They’re proposing unbundling it from not an agenda item last Tuesday, the the electricity rate and charging solar board could not comment or ask quescustomers for the use of their system,” tions.

2012. Power reliability options for the Poway pump station were broached by the board after the massive Southern California power outage on Sept. 8. RMWD General Manager David Barnum told the board that DE Solutions began an assessment of energy options and possible cost savings to the Poway pump station in 2008. The station pumps water 1,000 feet up the hill to Ramona from Poway. A list of ideas had been narrowed to three possibilities: a permanent diesel generator, natural gas engine driven water pumps, or a natural gas generator set (COGEN). Director Joe Zenovic said he would push consideration of a natural gas pipeline instead of “old technology diesel.” The board gave the OK for an agreement to be executed with DE Solutions to complete the 2008 study with a notto-exceed budget of $4,500. In other business, the board accepted the annual financial audit for fiscal year 2010-11, which ended on June 30. Barnum said the independent audit firm of Hosaka, Rotherham & Company gave an unqualified opinion, the best possible result. Barnum reported that revenues are up slightly and costs are down slightly. In an effort to be transparent, Barnum said, Zenovic, board treasurer, was included in the final client meeting with the auditors.

Gift cards benefit schools By BILL TAMBURRINO You can help any program at Ramona High School, Barnett Elementary, James Dukes elementary, Mount Woodson Elementary, Ramona Community School or Mountain Valley Academy just by eating.

New life for old rodeo arena A two-story wooden judges’ stand overlooks an old Ramona rodeo arena on the former Davis-Eagle Ranch, now part of the county-owned Ramona Grasslands Preserve off Montecito Way. John Degenfelder, a member of the Ramona Trails Association, has spearheaded a project to renovate the abandoned arena for equestrian and dog shows and possibly other activities. He estimates the arena to be at least 60 years old. County Parks and Recreation Department staff have been working at the site to remove approximately 300 concrete footings with metal brackets that were once attached to bleachers. Below, from left, Travis Payne, county park ranger for the grasslands, operates a tractor to uproot the concrete footings while David Bresnahan, park attendant for the preserve, gives direction. Eli Espino operates a backhoe with a jackhammer to break apart the concrete, and the metal brackets, far right, accumulate in a pile. Ramona Disposal is donating the use of dumpsters to dispose of the concrete and metal. Sentinel photos/Karen Brainard

Business News

Stars’ new owners make changes By KAREN BRAINARD The new owners of Stars Petroleum Inc. in Ramona say they have revamped the business and are hoping residents will stop by and give the gas station a try. They also want the word out that former owner James Kurtenbach has absolutely no involvement in the business. “It has nothing to do with him anymore,” said Terri Kjonegaard, who owns the station with her husband, Tim. The Kjonegaards took ownership of Stars gas station at 1910 Main St. on the west side of Ramona about a year ago. That was after Kurtenbach was convicted of arson, conspiracy and insurance fraud for his role in the Oct. 31, 2008, fiery explosion that destroyed his vacant house on North Woodson Drive and killed employee James Nesheiwat. Nesheiwat died almost instantly from burns suffered in the explosion and Kurtenbach was sentenced to 15 years and eight months in prison. Tim Kjonegaard said some people think Kurtenbach still owns the business. ”We’ve been boycotted,” he said. “We’ve worked hard for a year. We’ve tried to make this a nice safe place. “One of the best things is our reputation and willingness to do the right thing,” he added. Owning and operating a gas station is a new occupation for the Kjonegaards and one that fell into Terri’s lap after Kurtenbach’s conviction. As the ex-wife

of Kurtenbach, she was a silent owner in the business but said she never worked with Kurtenbach at the gas station. She said she divorced Kurtenbach in December 2007 after a three-year separation and described the news of Kurtenbach’s role in the explosion as a horror story. She said she never knew anything that was going on until it happened. Finding themselves with a gas station, the Kjonegaards said they decided to start anew and improve the business. “It needs to be a clean, well-lit store,” said Tim. Having heard stories of fights and unpleasant activities around the gas station in the past, Tim said he hired mature, responsible and knowledgeable people to ensure the business remains professional. “My goal is to make it pleasant for the customers as well as the employees,” Tim said.

He encourages his employees to come up with new ideas for the business. “They take pride in this place,” he added. The couple stressed that they value their employees, customers and their reputation. Over the past year,

Kjonegaard said they met all obligations with any remaining issues from the previous owner and implemented such changes as installing retail store software and accounting procedures, updating the store and repairing the car wash. “I’ve heard a lot of good things,” he said of the changes. Tim said he’s been working with the county to meet all codes and requirements and said the county has been pleased with his improvements. “They’ve been fair to me,” he commented about the county. Owning a gas station had not been in the career path of Kjonegaard, a flight test engineer for Edwards Air Force base. “As cool as it was, I needed to give that up to help Terri,” he said, adding that his new job is “very demanding, complex, challenging.” Stars is open 24 hours, seven days a week and may be contacted at 760-788-7800.

Sheriff’s Holiday Watch program started Friday As shoppers flocked to stores the day after Thanksgiving weekend to hunt for bargains, so did crooks looking to take advantage of distracted victims. Black Friday marked the start of the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department’s Holiday Watch program, aimed at increasing patrols throughout neighborhoods, malls, on trolleys and trains, and other hot spots for criminal activity during the Christmas season. The program will run through New Year’s Day. “Criminals do not take holidays off and neither will our deputies,” Sheriff Bill Gore

said. Undercover operations will be used in conjunction with uniformed patrols and deputies will work with the San Diego County Probation Department and state parole agents to identify career criminals and repeat offenders who may be in violation of the terms of their release, Gore said. Crime prevention specialists and senior patrol volunteers will also hand out fliers at command posts outside shopping areas, Gore said. Shoppers can report suspicious activity by calling the sheriff’s department at 858-5655200.

Congress Is Putting U.S. Postal Service Out Of Business

emember the old phrase the US Postal Service used to use: “Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night, stays these courageous couriers from their swift completion of their appointed rounds.” While this still holds true in most cases, the U.S. Postal Service has been slow to change and adapt to present-day economics and technology and may be filing for bankruptcy come next September if Congress doesn’t wake up to reality. In just the past year, the post office has lost $5.1 billion, mainly due to a decrease in first class mail, but also due to the fact it has to fund future retiree medical benefits years in advance; losses for 2012 could exceed $14 billion. Congress has been slow to act to give the agency the flexibility to reduce the number of days of delivery, to close underperforming offices, raise prices, reduce health care and other labor costs, which are 80 percent of the USPS costs. The postal service needs to be self-sustaining because it’s an independent agency of the government and does not receive tax money for its operations. For many years the postal service did very little self-promotion but has recently stepped up its advertising. The problem is too little too late and the message is weak. The post office has failed to capitalize on its strengths: the experience of receiving and opening a letter or card (as opposed to digital) and the one size box that ships anywhere in the U.S. for one price, or leasing space to a card shop for instance. UPS and FedEx have continued to post profits even in the current economy, whereas the postal service wallows in huge losses. Routes are being consolidated, retired employees are not being replaced and service is suffering. The postal service is on life support and, without a heart transplant and forward thinking, the post office will soon be extinct. Jeff Mitchell Publisher

How did things get so out of balance? By SHERRY WILSON I recently had the privilege of participating in a day of general strike at the University of California Berkeley. My daughter is a student there and the strike was a response to the university’s brutal police retaliation against the students’ “Occupy Cal” encampment the previous week. The “Occupy” encampment and the subsequent strike were prompted by the UC Regents’ reported recommendation to increase tuition at California public universities by 81 percent over the next four years, and, in general, the defunding and privatization of public education in California. Their complaint, and mine, is that when tuition is more than $18,000 per year, there is little to no difference between public

Guest Commentary and private schools, and higher education becomes all but unaffordable for all but the very wealthy. Thus, the exclusion of so many lower and middle-class Californians from the opportunity for a public education seems very appropriate to me in the broader “Occupy” movement whose focus is the widening gap between the haves and the have nots, the disparity in the distribution of income, and the demise of American democracy. The general assembly at Cal drew more than 6,000 people. For those who think the “Occupy” movement is comprised mostly of a bunch of out-of-work hippies and bums, I can personally attest to the fact that that is NOT the case.

In addition to students, the majority of participants I saw were people like myself: middle-aged, middle-class, white, working individuals. They are people who are concerned because social and economic inequality is higher than it has been in almost 100 years and is showing no signs of declining. They are also concerned because tax rates today are lower than they were under Eisenhower while more and more millionaires and corporations are finding ways of avoiding paying any federal taxes at all (for example, Bank of America made $10 billion in profits in 2010 and paid NO federal income tax). Further, they are concerned that more and more

of our jobs are being outsourced to other countries and even great American products like the iPhone employ more Chinese than Americans in their manufacturing. These are people who are outraged that UC President Mark Yudof has a base salary of $591,084, a 46 percent increase from his predecessor, and a total salary, with benefits, of $924,642. This includes the $13,365 the University of California pays every month for his 16-room mansion. This, along with their outrage at the average CEO bringing in more than $10 million a year while the average public school teacher and/ or police officer makes less than $50,000, is testament to the fact that this is a movement of the middleclass demanding to know how things got so out of balance. For the period between the late 1940s and early 1970s, the median American’s household income doubled. Since then, the less-affluent, 90 percent of Americans, have realized barely a 5 percent increase in income. However, beSee COMMENTARY on page 9

GUEST COMMENTARY

Make more effort to involve the public By JOHN RAJCIC One could make the argument that our Constitution was in contravention of the existing law at the time of its ratification, the Articles of Confederation. It was not too unusual for Jefferson to speak of Virginia as his country. Ratification of our Constitution was not a shoo-in. After much debate, our Founding Fathers concluded that a democratic form of government could readily lead to confiscation of private property and mob rule. Consequently, we “pledge allegiance to the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands.” Further, Article IV of the Constitution guarantees that the states will have a republican form of government. Article I section 3 of our “Secular Bible” is an affirmative action program for small states like Wyoming. At best one could say we have a representative-democracy in that we the people elect others to do our bidding . Not long ago a board member stated that the school board is the most democratic institution in our land. After attending the last school board meeting, I would conclude it is one of the least democratic institutions. It is true that the board bylaws permit people to speak of their general concerns and any agenda item for three minutes, if they fill out a card in advance. Input given is not responded to; there is no discussion. One would think the board would say as a minimum “we will take your concern under advisement and get back to you.” We the people do not run down to the “schoolhouse” to see

what will be on the agenda. We trust our representatives. Even if we did read the legally-posted agenda, it would more than likely conceal more than it reveals. The point is we the people occasionally drop in on a board meeting and important votes are taken by the board without any public discussion. Other than school employees, there are few, if any, people at school board meetings or people who stay for the entire meeting. It is rather boring to sit at a meeting while the board is chatting small talk of no significance. There seems to be no urgency, all is well, when it isn’t. The board should not fear conflict. Conflict leads to improvement of the structure and functioning of an organization. The meeting should be more open and receptive to dialogue, especially since few citizens attend the board meetings. Even after board discussion of an item, prior to the vote of the board, the board president should occasionally ask, “Does anyone in attendance have anything to say about this matter?” Deliberately involve people. In the dialogue and exploration of alternatives, the more competent administrator will be apparent. When things get out of hand, invoke the three-minute rule or even adjourn the meeting. The board should induce excitement and involvement of the community. Ninety percent of our kids are in public schools, and public education is under attack and needs support. A citizen sitting through a board meeting should walk away supportive. John Rajcic is a Ramona resident.

Businessowner hopes editorial helps

Thank you so much for the editorial on shopping local. My husband and I own a small store on Main Street and are really struggling. I am always so puzzled when I hear of people driving 30 miles for products we carry and often pay the same or more for them. You made many good points that I haven’t been able to convey. I hope it helps! Dolores Mortier Ramona

Commentary

tween 1979 and 2007, the top 1 percent have seen their incomes soar by 281 percent. Coincidentally, this time frame falls right in line with trickle-down economics and Congress’ tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans. Today, the top 400,000 Americans control more wealth than the bottom 150 million Americans. Add to this the fact that more than 1,500 millionaires paid no income tax in 2010 and that, since 2004, people with seven-figure salaries have accepted more than $9 billion in Social Security payments and you begin to understand the outrage of the average American. Now, let’s include our elected public officials who serve in our nation’s Congress. Since 2008, the net worth of members of Congress has grown by 25 percent, while the average American household has lost as much as 20 percent of its net worth. Apparently, some Congressional officials routinely engage in a legal form

The 99% Occupy Movement has many legitimate grievances against the increasingly criminally dysfunctional U.S. government that has become a lawless corrupt oligarchy that the robber barons and their stooges own and operate, which means the people no longer have any say in what the U.S. government does or doesn’t do.

of insider trading, profiting from investment activity that would send the rest of us to prison. And this activity is across the board, including both houses of Congress and individuals from both parties. Even Sarah Palin has weighed in on this topic stating that, “Politicians derive power from the authority of their office and their access to our tax dollars, and they use that power to enrich and shield themselves. . . Members of Congress exempt themselves from the laws they apply to the rest of us.” Things are way out of balance in our country and I don’t see them getting any better until more of us stand up and demand the reinstatement of our democracy where our elected officials truly work for us rather than for their own enrichment, and where all contribute their fair share to our nation’s coffers for the benefit of all citizens. We are the 99 percent! Sherry Wilson is a Ramona resident.

ment would be more effective if it targeted those billion/million dollar swindlers in those financial markets and also those former and present war criminals and human rights abusers in the CIA and every federal courthouse in the land for refusing to prosecute the worst criminals in U.S. history. The reason America is no longer a republic is because the rule of law does not apply to all its citizens and, since the war criminals took over this country, truth and justice have become meaningless in this nation.

Keep our business in Ramona

I aree with Susan White’s guest commentary in the Nov. 17 Sentinel. Susan was correct when she reminded us that many of our local merchants contribute dollars, services and products to many worthy causes in Ramona. These include the Ramona Pregnancy Clinic, In His Steps Men’s and Women’s homes, to name just a few. We are now fortunate to have our own Big 5 Sporting Goods. They are employing mostly Ramonans and have enabled many of us with local employment. What a blessing not to have to work down the hill. Let’s keep our business in Ramona. Merry Christmas.

Candidate forum offers unique opportunity

In 2008, when Duncan Hunter was running for his dad’s congressional seat, I attended a candidate’s forum in Santee to ask a question or two. Out front of the event I introduced myself to all the candidates and asked them to please address the burgeoning national debt that at that time was almost $10.5 trillion, and they all agreed that it was an important issue. Inside the forum I submitted two questions to the screeners, asking the candidates what they intended on doing about the debt issue. None of

the candidates brought up the subject and my questions were rejected by the screeners. This will not happen at the next Ramona Forum meeting, where we will have the three candidates running against Duncan Hunter in 2012, 2 Democrats and 1 Republican. The candidates will answer questions directly from the audience, no screening by anyone. This is a unique opportunity for honest inquiring citizens to ask honest questions about the issues that they deem most important. Don’t miss this opportunity to understand the candidates. Dec. 7, 6 p.m., at the Ramona library. Dave Patterson Ramona

Lion Obama?

“We can improve our standing in the world by perfecting our own democracy and leading by example.” The quote is from a book, “The Audacity of Hope,” by Barack Obama. It was published in 2006. At the time Obama, with honor degrees in history and law, was serving as junior United States senator from Illinois. How disappointing, as president of the United States, to discover that so many people do not seem ready yet for democracy. They, both Republican and Democrat, are still choosing up sides and playing games instead of listening to their constituents. A democracy understands that We the People, the majority, can be right. But we can also be misguided, misled and just plan behind times. A democracy ensures that everyone is heard, then compromise and best choices with a president “presiding,” not leading, can lead to progress for the entire nation. It will be interesting to see what happens next. The yapping jackals may discover that they have teased the lion once too often. Because Obama has also written in his book, “I understand politics as a full-contact sport.” Edalee Orcutt Harwell Ramona

Pair charged in Barona, Fashion Valley robberies Robbery and arson charges were filed Monday against two parolees suspected in a series of armed robberies throughout California, including one at Barona Casino and another at a Fashion Valley jewelry store. Robert Chavira, 40, and Ryan Alan McKnight, 34, were each ordered held in lieu of $5 million bail. The defendants were

supposed to be arraigned on Monday, but the proceeding was postponed until Dec. 12, when more charges and possibly more arrests may be announced. Deputy District Attorney Rick Clabby told Judge David Szumowski that Chavira and McKnight were involved in five “high-risk” armed robberies in Costa Mesa, Mission Valley, San Jose, Palm Desert and at

the Barona Casino. On Aug. 2, the armed defendants used sledgehammers to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of watches from a Costa Mesa store, Clabby alleged. On Sept. 12, the armed defendants drove down a walkway at the Fashion Valley mall and used sledgehammers to break display cases and steal

high-end Rolex watches from the Ben Bridge store, the prosecutor alleged. Chavira and McKnight used the same tactic to steal Rolex watches from a high-end jewelry store in San Jose on Oct. 15, Clabby told the judge. Nine days later, the defendants — armed and wearing masks — allegedly stole more than $1 million in Rolex watches from

a store in Palm Desert. Clabby said the defendants changed their method of operation when they allegedly stole $60,000 to $70,000 from a glass case at the Barona Casino on Nov. 2. The defendants set fire to a house next to the casino to draw firefighters and authorities away from the business, the prosecutor alleged.

Clabby alleged that Chavira and McKnight tied a chain to the back of a vehicle and ripped out a glass case containing the cash. A video shows McKnight buying gas before the fire was set, the prosecutor said. When the defendants were arrested a week later, gear used to commit robberies was found in their hotel room, Clabby said.

Garcia exhibit opens with Dec. 3 reception Julian artist Joe Garcia’s “The Smallest Bird Sings the Sweetest Song” exhibit opens in Santa Ysabel Art Gallery on Saturday, Dec. 3, and will be in the gallery through Jan. 15. The public will have an opportunity to meet Garcia at an opening reception for his exhibit in the gallery, 30352 Highway 78, from 4 to 8 p.m. Admission is free and all are welcome. Garcia, a nationally acclaimed wildlife artist, creates his paintings of birds, with a focus on smaller song birds, in oil and watercolor. His career as a wildlife painter began about 30

years ago with the construction of a large aviary that would become a habitat for quail. He would go into the aviary and sit with the birds, drawing, painting and photographing them, and eventually learning and depicting each quail type accurately, and his fame as a painter of birds grew. A native Californian, Garcia grew up on a small ranch near Escondido, where he developed an awareness of wildlife and habitat. He studied illustration at Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles and worked as a graphic illustrator before deciding in

1983 to make fine art his primary focus. His work is featured in major wildlife festivals throughout the country, and in 2010 he was selected to be a judge for the Federal Duck Stamp competition. Garcia is the author of “the Watercolor Bible” and “Mastering the Watercolor Wash,” both published by Northlight Books. In addition to his wildlife paintings, Garcia is known for his landscape paintings, both plein air and studio, and for watercolor workshops he has taught throughout the United States and in Italy, France, Greece and New Zealand.

He has been a demonstration artist for the PBS series “The Artist’s Workshop,” has been featured in numerous art books and magazines, and has written a major article for “Watercolor Magic.” In June of 2012, Garcia will teach a workshop in Chicago for the Transparent Watercolor Society of America, and in September he will be painting in the Rocky Mountains as the official artist-in-residence in Breckenridge, Colo. Santa Ysabel Art Gallery is open Thursday through Monday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and by appointment. For more information, call 760-765-1676.

‘Nutcracker’ returns with guest artists Radetsky, Shee A pirouetting Sugarplum Fairy, wondrous Mouse King with his prancing mice, swirling snowflakes and a magical nutcracker, along with a host of other characters, come to life as the San Diego Academy of Ballet’s annual production of the “Nutcracker” returns to the stage at the Poway Center for the Performing Arts on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 2 and 3. This year the academy features guest artists from the American Ballet Theatre in New York City in the production’s principal roles. Sascha Radetsky, a soloist with ABT, will perform the role of the Cavalier and Alys Shee, winner of the Silver Medal at the 11th Moscow International Ballet Competition in 2009, is the Sugarplum

Fairy. Russian-born and trained guest artist and teacher Alexei Borovik will perform as Drosselmeyer. A native of Santa Cruz, Calif., Radetsky, renowned for his 2000 performance as Charlie in the film “Center Stage,” began his training in San Francisco and at 15 studied for a year at the Bolshoi Academy in Moscow. Subsequently he won a scholarship to study at the Kirov Academy in Washington, D.C., and then he toured internationally with the Kirov Ballet. He also won scholarships to study at programs of the School of the American Ballet, American Ballet Theatre’s School of Classical Ballet with Mikhail Baryshnikov and

the San Francisco Ballet School. He joined ABT in 1995, working his way from apprentice through the corps de ballet to soloist in 2003. His repertoire includes the works of choreographers Balanchine, MacMillan, Tharp, Cranko, deMille and Robbins. He tours internationally as a guest artist, and in 2008 he joined the Dutch National Ballet as a principal dancer. Shee, 17, a native of Toronto, is the youngest Canadian student to win a medal in an international competition. She also won silver medals at the USA and the Cape Town International Ballet Competitions, as well medals from competitions in New York and Orlando. At 15, Shee joined the

American Ballet Theatre II and toured internationally, developing her classical repertoire. She danced in National Ballet of Canada’s production of the “Nutcracker.” In January 2012, Shee will be performing in the “Stars of the 21st Century Gala in Paris with Mikhail Kaniskin” from the Staatsoper Ballett Berlin. Borovik, who trained in Russia with the Perm Ballet Academy and performed as a premier dancer with the Perm Ballet Theatre, joined the Pennsylvania Ballet as a principal dancer in 1992. With a broad classical ballet repertoire, he toured internationally as well as in Russia and the United States as a guest artist. He retired from the Pennsylvania Ballet in 2006 to teach ballet and expand his modern dance career. This season he has been a guest instructor at the San Diego Academy of Ballet.

A Total Lunar Eclipse Is Coming By HAROLD SCHACHTER

n Saturday morning, Dec. 10, as our full-moon is setting, AND BEFORE our sun rises, our moon will be in total eclipse. This means that Earth will be between the sun and the moon thus blocking out the sun’s light from illuminating the moon. For those readers who might be curious or otherwise interested, when our totally eclipsed moon is setting here in Ramona, it will actually be passing through the southerly region of the Northern Mariana Islands in the western-central Pacific, and approaching a transiting (crossing) of the meridian (line of longitude) of the U.S. Territory of Guam. All of the Pacific Ocean area should be able to view the entire duration of the lunar eclipse’s totality, skies permitting. If the weather cooperates and there is no fog or an overcast sky here in Ramona, Ramonans should be able to see this total lunar eclipse, provided that they’re awake at 6 o’clock that morning and know where to look for the setting moon in the western sky. Lunar eclipses occur less frequently than do solar eclipses. Total solar eclipses occur when the new-moon blocks out all the light coming from the sun, and Earth is thrown into darkness during daylight hours and we can see the stars. But total solar eclipses are of a much shorter duration of time in “totality” and cover a much narrower path on the Earth’s surface than do total lunar eclipses. You’ve got to be in the right place at the right time to experience a total solar eclipse. There will not be any total solar eclipses viewable from Ramona in the 21st century. Astronomers and NASA inform us that 2011 is a rarity in that four partial solar eclipses and two total lunar eclipses will have taken place somewhere on our planet during this calendar year. This

Here’s the time schedule for the total lunar eclipse on Saturday, Dec. 10.

Times given are PST. 6:06 a.m. — Total Eclipse Starts 6:32 a.m. — MidTotal Eclipse 6:39 a.m. — Sun Rises (Total Eclipse Ends) Schematic diagram of the shadow cast by the Earth. Within the central umbra shadow, the Moon is totally shielded from direct illumination by the Sun. In contrast, within the penumbra shadow, only a portion of sunlight is blocked.

The 2011 total eclipse

As seen by an observer on Earth on the imaginary celestial sphere, the Moon crosses the ecliptic every orbit at positions called nodes twice every month. When the full moon occurs in the same position at the node, a lunar eclipse can occur. These two nodes allow two to five eclipses per year, parted by approximately six months. (Note: Not drawn to scale. The Sun is much larger and farther away than the Moon.)

4:2 combination within a single year is a rather rare occurrence with only six such years occurring during the 21st century (2011, 2029, 2047, 2065, 2076 and 2094). The first and last eclipses always occur in January and December. On Jan. 4, 2011, there was a partial solar eclipse and on Dec, 10, 2011, there will be a total lunar eclipse. The lunar eclipse occurring on Dec. 10 will have a period of “totality” of 51 minutes and 8 seconds, but we in Ramona will get to experience only about 33 minutes of that “totality.” Why? Be-

cause the sun will rise at 6:39 a.m. PST, ending the totality’s show. The farther north up the West Coast you go, the more of the duration of the totality you will get to experience because the sun rises later. The San Francisco Bay area, for example, will get to experience all of the period of totality. André Louis Danjon (1890-1967) was a French astronomer who devised a five-point scale for forecasting the brightness and visual appearance (with the naked eye) of total lunar eclipses. According to its Danjon Scale’s “L” number, the

6:43 a.m. — Moon (Partially Eclipsed) Sets

A total penumbral lunar eclipse dims the moon in direct proportion to the area of the sun’s disk blocked by the earth. This comparison, which shows the southern shadow penumbral lunar eclipse of January 1999, left, to the same moon outside of the shadow, right, demonstrates this subtle dimming.

coming total eclipse on Dec. 10 is expected to be dark with details distinguishable only with difficulty, so it behooves the viewer to know where in the sky to look for the full moon. A viewer might notice where the moon sets on the morning before the eclipse (Friday, Dec. 9, at 5:51 a.m. PST) or to look for the partially eclipsed moon on Saturday, before 6 a.m. to more easily see where the moon should be in the western sky. Besides this Dec. 10 total lunar eclipse visible from Ramona, there will be three more total lunar eclipses visible from

Ramona in this decade (2011-2020). There are actually a total of six additional total lunar eclipses that will be visible from Ramona in the current decade, but I have discounted three of them because they occur either very late at night, in the wee hours of the early morning, or the period of “totality” is rather brief. For those who expect to be around, here are the day/dates and circumstances for the “convenient” three more total lunar eclipses this decade: Sunday, Sept, 27, 2015 At moonrise the moon will be in total eclipse

when it rises at 6:34 p.m. PDT. Totality will end at 7:23 p.m. PDT. Wednesday, Jan. 31, 2018 “Totality” starts at 4:52 a.m. PST, almost two hours before moonset, and ends at 6:08 a.m. PST, 41-minutes before moonset. Sunday, Jan. 20, 2019 After moonrise. Totality begins at 8:41 p.m. PST, almost four hours after moonrise, and ends at 9:43 p.m. PST. Harold Schachter is a Ramona resident. The Sentinel thanks him for this report.

Model middle school

Torlakson announced that the four high-performing California schools are newly designated model middle schools in the Schools to Watch™−Taking Center Stage (STW™− TCS) program. Another 11 high-performing California schools will retain their model middle grades schools status under the same program. “I commend the students, their parents, teachers, and administrators for their efforts in helping make these 15 schools models of excellence,” Torlakson said. “Their success is amazing, especially considering they are swimming against the tide of massive budget cuts, crowded classrooms, and

school employee layoffs.” In addition to Olive Peirce Middle School, schools receiving the designation are: •Granite Ridge Intermediate (Clovis Unified School District, Fresno, Fresno County) is the fifth middle grades school in the district to receive the STW™−TCS designation. Clovis Unified is the first district in the state to have all its middle grades schools receive this designation. The school’s achievement gap has narrowed 37 points on the state’s standardized tests under Principal Norm Anderson’s leadership since it opened in 2008. Anderson was also recently selected Fresno County’s

Administrator of the Year. •High Desert School (Acton-Agua Unified School District, Acton, Los Angeles County) is a small rural school. Administrators have worked hard to turn their school around and close the achievement gap, Torlakson stated. Hispanic students’ scores on the state’s standardized tests have climbed 88 points in the past two years, while socioeconomically disadvantaged students have gained 81 points since 2007. •Katherine L. Albiani Middle School (Elk Grove Unified School District, Elk Grove, Sacramento County) is the second middle school in the district to receive the STW™—TCS designation. The achievement gap of students has narrowed by more than 30 points on the state’s standardized tests since 2007. In Olive Peirce Middle School, students continue to make gains in all subgroups on the state’s standardized tests, said Torlakson. The school has gained

Olive Peirce Middle School Principal Linda Solis, right, stands outside the school Monday morning with some members of the school’s staff after they received word that OPMS is one of only four schools in the state selected as a “School to Watch,” a distinction that Ramona Unified School District Supt.

53 points since 2007, while socioeconomically disadvantaged students have gained 71 points. The STW™—TCS program identifies high-performing school models

that demonstrate academic excellence, developmental responsiveness to the needs and interests of young adolescents, social equity, and organizational support.

STW™—TCS model schools host visitors from California and around the world who are looking for replicable practices that will help them improve their middle grades schools and close the achievement gap. To be selected a STW™—TCS model middle school, school administrators must conduct a self-study evaluation and complete an extensive narrative application. Each site is then reviewed by a team of middle grades experts. To retain the designation, each school is reevaluated every three years. All of the schools will be formally recognized in Sacramento at the California Middle Grades Alliance annual luncheon on Feb. 23, 2012, and during the California League of Middle Schools conference Feb. 24-26, 2012. At those events, the schools will have an opportunity to showcase their accomplishments and network with other middle grades educators from around the state.

James Dukes Cross Country Invitational attracts students throughout district By DIXIE PETTIT More than 100 elementary schoolchildren converged on the James Dukes’ campus track to participate in the annual cross-country invitational. “I am not sure which year this is for the run, but it is

the longest-standing (continuous) one,” said teacher Sarie Imonen, the run’s coorganizer. “(Teacher) Randy Schimpf started the first one over at Barnett more than 14 years ago.” Inspired by Schimpf, James Dukes teacher Craig

Croman began the event at James Dukes Elementary, said Imonen. The course is laid out over 1.3 miles on the campus and surrounding streets. There are areas of pavement, dirt, loose gravel, uneven ground and hills for each participant to overcome. Staff members are situated at points along the run with radios to ensure the safety of the students. Cones, tape and paint mark easy-to-follow boundaries so runners don’t get lost or inadvertently drift too far into the street. Each run is broken into grade level for third- through sixth-graders, with the boys and girls running separately. Though timed separately, this year the sixth-grade girls and boys ran together. As each group of students took turns at the starting point, others lined up along the track screaming encouragement to the runners. From the fastest first place finishers to the last, See JAMES DUKES on page 25

inspiration was far more evident than even the perspiration on each one. About 100 voices blended together in a wave of excitement. “C’mon! You can do it! You’re almost there! Woo-hoo! Go! Go! Go!” could be heard across the field. One runner, wanting to give up about halfway through the course, had another runner turn around and go back to help her finish. She took the student’s hand and said, “C’mon! You can do it!” and ran with her to the final stretch. “Stories like those,” said Imonen, “are the reasons we do this.” First-place finisher for the fifth grade, Seneca Curo, ran with sixth-grade brother Cameron for the final stretch. Running through the pain, a triumphant Cameron crossed the finish line while his sister silently ducked under the tape and to the side. As an example that age or size does not matter, the fastest times did not come from the sixth-grade group. For the girls, a fourth-grader from Ramona Community School took home the honors. Amy Brown, 10, won the trophy for “fastest girl” with a time of 8:33. Fifth-grader Jaedon Gotowala, also 10, from James Dukes, finished first among all boys with a time of 7:42. Imonen credits the dedication of staff at James Dukes Elementary for the

Ramona Sentinel success and consistency of the invitational. The run “usually takes place around Veterans week or Thanksgiving, though it has had to be postponed at times due to rain,” she said. “Notices are sent in October to all schools within the Ramona district and any elementary students within the district are allowed to participate.” Imonen coordinates the invitational with fellow teacher Ashli Krainock, but stressed it is the “teachers who keep it going year after year. The teachers staff the run, volunteer on race day and monitor the course … We started teaching because we are here for the kids and it is not just what happens in the classroom.” Is it easy? “No. It can be exhausting putting it all together. Everyone has other commitments. Everyone is busy. But then we just make it happen for the kids. This is what it is all about, right?”

Country Living Holiday Safety Tips from Your Ramona Sheriff’s Station

Safely Recycling Your Old Cell Phone and Computer By BARBARA WALLACE Did you receive a new cell phone or computer this holiday season? What are you going to do with your old equipment? Your Sheriff’s Station urges you take some simple precautions to avoid becoming a victim of identity theft: 1. Safeguard your personal phone book by removing the SIMS Card from inside your phone. It contains all of the numbers you have called. Simply open the back of the phone and locate the small postage size plastic card and remove it. If you can’t do it, visit any cell phone business and they can assist you. 2. You can donate your used phone (and charger, if you have it) to the Ramona High School Parent-Teacher-Student Association by dropping it in the recycling box located in the high school’s Administrative Of-

ﬁce. They will use the recycling proﬁt to support PTSA activities. 3. Before you dispose of your old computer, be sure to remove the internal hard drive and make it inoperable. If you don’t know how

to remove it, a local computer technician can assist you. Be sure to take the hard drive with you or personally observe the destruction of the device. Remember that the hard drive records information such as account

numbers, user names, passwords, and other personal information. If you have any questions about preventing identity theft, call Crime Prevention Specialist Barbara Wallace at the station, 760-738-2425.

Bulldogs earn third at state cross country meet Blankenbaker finishes second By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School’s cross country team finished third among Division II teams at the CIF state meet Nov. 26 at Fresno’s Woodward Park, while Ramona senior Dylan Blankenbaker was the second individual across the finish line. Golden Valley High School in Santa Clarita won the Division II championship with 86 points, Loyola High School of Los Angeles was second with 111 points, and Ramona had 144 points. “All season long our goal was to be on the podium. Of course we were going for first place, but I’m really happy,” said Coach Steve Albanese. La Costa Canyon, the only Division II school to finish ahead of Ramona at the CIF San Diego Section meet, was fourth with 146 points.

As second-place finisher in the state meet, Dylan Blankenbaker, team captain, sports a second medallion and holds the team plaque.

“Our guys laid it on the line and ran a gutsy last part of the race,” Albanese said. “That made all the difference.” Last year, Ramona placed seventh in the state meet with 223 points. “I think this might be the

best finish Ramona’s ever had,” Albanese said of the third-place result. “It’s one of the best teams that Ramona’s ever had, and I’m really thrilled.” Blankenbaker likely had the best individual showing ever posted by a Bull-

dog in a state meet. La Costa Canyon senior Darren Fahy won the 5,000-meter (3.1-mile) race with a time of 15:03 while Blankenbaker finished in 15:10. Fahy was in front by himself for most of the race, but Blankenbaker was in

Girls basketball starts season undefeated in shootout By BILL TAMBURRINO Ramona High School’s girls basketball team opened the 2011-12 season by traveling to Coronado High School to play in the Coronado Thanksgiving Shootout. The Lady Dawgs dominated the first two days of action and earned a spot in the championship game on Saturday. Ramona’s defense dominated the first day of action. The girls play a relentless person-to-person defense that puts constant pressure on the ball and cuts off passing lanes. They opened against Francis Parker High School with a 54-16 victory. Ramona held the Lancerettes scoreless in the first quarter and led 15-0 going into

the second period. Ramona’s offense continued to roll as they built a 30-4 lead at intermission. Ramona’s defense continued to dominate Parker as the Lady Dawgs held Parker to 1 point in the third period to lead 44-8 going into the final eight minutes. The two teams played evenly in the final period. RaeAnne VanTol and Tiana Zuniga shared the scoring honors as both scored 11 points. Paige Conroy (7), Kailey Hill (6), Megan Buckley (3), Julie Ward (4), Kim Whelehon (4) and Katheryn Mauldin (8) also scored in the win. Conroy, Buckley and Zuniga hit one 3-point goal apiece. Ramona’s defense played even better in the second game of the tourney as the Lady Dawgs

held Clairemont High School to 10 points in a 77-10 victory. Whelehon and VanTol shared scoring honors as they both contributed 19 points on offense. Conroy also scored in double digits with 15 points. Hill (9), Zuniga (6), Mauldin (6) and Ashlyn Savage (3) also scored in the victory. Ramona advanced to the championship game in the tournament by beating Steele Canyon. They faced stiffer competition in day two of the shootout but had enough guns to stay undefeated. They beat Steele Canyon 58-39 as they jumped out to a 13-8 lead in the first period and never looked back. Whelehon had a tournament high 22 points. She sank three 3-point

goals in the process. Conroy and Zuniga both registered in double figures with 11 and 14 points, respectfully. Conroy had one 3-point goal. Hill (2), VanTol (6) and Mauldin (3) also scored for the Lady Dawgs. Whelehon continued to have a hot hand in a 5935 win over Chula Vista to end pool play in the shootout. The senior guard scored 17 points and sank four shots from beyond the 3-point arch. Conroy (12) and VanTol (13) also scored in double figures. Conroy hit one trey in the game. Niki Spring (3), Hill (9) Zuniga (3) and Mauldin (2) rounded out the scoring. The Lady Bulldogs will host La Costa Canyon on Friday at 7 p.m. in the Dawg House.

the lead of the chase pack two miles into the competition. “Dylan closed on him a little bit in the last mile, but Darren was just too far ahead for Dylan to be able to catch him,” Albanese said. Aubrey Myjer of Mountain View finished third at 15:15. Blankenbaker wasn’t disappointed at finishing second. “It was kind of a long shot for me catching him,” Blankenbaker said. “Darren’s really good and I closed the gap of how much he beat me by last weekend by about half, so I’m happy with what I did.” Fahy also won the section Division II race with a time of 15:23 while Blankenbaker was second in that race at 15:37. At last year’s state meet Blankenbaker had a time of 15:28 to finish eighth among the 191 Division II runners. The state meet will not close out his high school career, as that night he was invited to run in the Nike Nationals, which will take place this Saturday in Portland, Ore. “I’m super excited about that,” Blankenbaker said of his invitation to the Nike Nationals. “Dylan was a great captain and a great leader and a very inspirational run-

ner,” Albanese said. “He’s going to be really missed next year.” Team scores are determined by adding the positions of a school’s first five finishers. Each school that qualified as a team was allowed to enter up to seven runners; a team’s sixth and seventh finishers aren’t scored but can add points to opposing teams. The race also included those who qualified as individuals. Ramona junior Forrest Riley had a time of 15:54, See STATE MEET on page 30

Cortez earns All-American as CSUSM wins NAIA title By JOE NAIMAN Chelsey Cortez became a National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics cross country All-American when she finished 22nd among the 323 women in the NAIA national championship race in Vancouver, Wash. Cortez, a 2010 Ramona High School graduate, was on the California State University San Marcos team that won its third consecutive NAIA national championship. The positions of the Cougars’ top five runners gave them 82 points. Second-place Azusa Pacific University, whose nick-

name is also the Cougars, had 91 points. “It was such a dream come true for me,” Cortez said of being an All-American. “That was my goal at the beginning of the season.” The top 30 finishers received NAIA All-American status. Cortez had a time of 18:15 on the 5,000-meter (3.1-mile) course. “I’m really happy with it. I felt like it was a great accomplishment,” Cortez said. “After the race I was really satisfied.” Cortez competed in the NAIA nationals as a freshmen in 2010 and finished 117th with a time of 19:29.

Chelsey Cortez of Ramona stands with her California State University San Marcos cross country coach, Steve Scott, after a race.

“It was something new, something I hadn’t really experienced before,” she said. “I didn’t really know what to expect.” A school can enter up to seven runners; the top five finishers are scored. Last year Cortez was CSUSM’s seventh finisher. “This year I had an idea of what the course was like,” she said. “It’s a really difficult course, so the times are really slow.” Some of that was due to the mud. “It had rained that week and it was pretty muddy,” Cortez said. Some weather forecasts predicted snow the day of the Nov. 19 race. “Luckily it didn’t snow,” Cortez said. Last year Cortez wasn’t expected to be a scored competitor. She was the Cougars’ third runner in most of the 2011 races. “It was more pressure,” she said. Cortez and CSUSM Coach Steve Scott spoke before the race, and Scott put the situation into perspective. “The coach really prepared me mentally,” Cortez said. “I definitely wasn’t focused on time this year. I was more focused on picking off girls

and catching girls.” Cortez began the race near the back. “I started out conservatively,” she said. “Over the course of the race I probably passed like a hundred something girls.” The runners included individuals who were not part of a team. Cortez finished 18th for the purposes of team scoring. She was the third finisher for the Cougars, four of whom earned All-American honors. “It really came hand in hand with just going out there and competing,” Cortez said of being an All-American. “I didn’t realize how big of a difference from last year it was, my time, but I was really happy when I saw it.” Scott has coached the Cougars’ cross country and track and field programs since the school initiated athletics in 1999. His own college career at the University of California Irvine included three NCAA Division II 1,500-meter championships between 1975 and 1977, and he held the American mile record for more than 25 years. “He really knows what he’s doing,” Cortez said of Scott. Of her success, she said,

Not so thankful for......

ast week this column mentioned a few things that the writer is very thankful for. Now it is the old “Good News-Bad News” gig. By the time that this column is published, the NBA lockout or strike or whatever it was will be settled. I am not sure what it was mainly because I really don’t care. The players didn’t have much to fall back on or a chance to win the negotiations. What else were they going to do? All of the college basketball commentator jobs are filled and with no season there were no NBA commentator jobs to do. Many went to college but not too many stayed there long enough to get a degree or any credits or

any kind of an education. They did get an education during the negotiations. They learned that they were grossly overpaid for the education and skills that they have. My guess is that there are fewer college grads in the NBA than at one of our local car washes. In these tough economic times most people resent people who can barely talk making millions of dollars. It is shameful listening to some professional athletes while they are being interviewed. If I could get $1 for every cliché or every time they said you know or every time they butchered the English language, I would be a millionaire and the local restaurants would reap the benefits.

My guess is that by the time this column gets published we will not have heard the last of the Penn State scandal. It is a true tragedy, but it should be tried in court not in the court of public opinion. By the time this column gets published, the Heisman Hype will be in full swing. I think that we should do away with the trophy all together. It really does not reward the best college football player any more. It just tells us which college has the best sports information director. Let the NFL draft tell us who the experts think are the best players. Their track record isn’t very good, either. I really hate the banter between commentators

In these tough economic times most people resent people who can barely talk making millions of dollars. about who is going to win the next game or games. Play the games. That is how to decide who is going to win them. However, in high school in San Diego winning games is not as important as who you lost games to. Go figure. I wish Mel Kiper would get a haircut. How can

anybody with such a bad barber be an expert on anything? He actually spends money on that ‘do. Is he a sports commentator or a gossip commentator? Maybe it isn’t his hair. Maybe it is a painted football helmet. Charger fans can’t be satisfied. They were not

Cortez also runs track for the Cougars and will likely compete in the 5,000-meter races during the 2012 track and field season. happy when the Bolts were 4-1 and had a winning record and they are even more unhappy now that they have a losing record. The Bolts fired a coach that went 14-2 because he didn’t win playoff games. Now their chances of getting into the playoffs are slim. Slim is leaving town. So are the Chargers. I have been spending a lot of time driving long distances in the car and I hope that the people who listen to talk radio and call into talk radio shows on a regular basis will someday get a life. Since I have been listening, I guess that includes me. I listen for the entertainment. I think of it as comedy. I hope that I don’t start watching reality TV shows. I might want to get on a dancing show. I have to go. I want to hear who Doctor Lou and Mark May think is going to win.

Owens receives Bulldog Award at post-season banquet By JOE NAIMAN Michaela Owens became Ramona High School’s starting middle blocker in 2010 due to her volleyball astuteness rather than her height, and when 5’10” junior Kelsie Whitten was ready for this year’s varsity, the 5’6” Owens lost her starting job through no fault of her own. Owens’ versatility as a reserve earned her considerable playing time throughout the year, and on Nov. 18 it earned her the Bulldog Award during the team’s post-season awards banquet, which was held at the Hanson Elementary School multipurpose room.

State meet

“She had the toughest job of all because she was the backup of just about everything,” said Head Coach Connie Halfaker. “In practice she had to be all over the place.” The other awards are voted upon by the players, but the coaches selected the Bulldog Award recipient. “So many kids are deserving,” Halfaker said. Owens received the Bulldog Award for her offcourt as well as her oncourt contributions. The considerations included her attitude after losing her starting position. “She handled it so very well, and she was a leader on the bench. She was supportive,” Halfak-

“She had the toughest job of all because she was the backup of just about everything. In practice she had to be all over the place.” Coach Connie Halfaker

er said. “She was a true teammate, a true utility player.” Last year Halfaker made Owens a starting middle blocker due to her knowledge of the position, which gave Owens the advantage over taller players. Ramona’s other middle blocker, 5’9” Alexis Sharpe, started both in 2010 and 2011.

Owens was still a substitute middle blocker. “We had her as a middle and she did a good job,” Halfaker said. Owens also relieved starting setter Mikayla Derochie and starting libero Nicole Darrough. “She can play anything,” Halfaker said of Owens. “She’s able to be placed anywhere on the court at any given time.”

“I wanted him to have experience going into next year,” Albanese said. “That’s one of the reasons I put him in.” Spieker responded with a time of 17:13, which placed him 156th among the race’s 183 runners. He was 126th for team score statistics. The two schools that finished ahead of Ramona this year each had five seniors. Golden Valley is expected to return its second and fifth finishers while Loyola’s underclassmen finished fifth and seventh among their teammates. If the Bulldogs return all underclassmen, they will have four runners with state meet experience. “Our program’s looking pretty good for next year,” Albanese said. On Sept. 17 Ramona and La Costa Canyon competed at the Mt. Carmel/ Movin’ Shoes Cross-Country Invitational at Morley Field in San Diego. That meet involved grade-level races, but had the overall positions of each school’s five fastest runners been added Ramona would have placed two points ahead of the Mavericks. La Costa Canyon had a 15-point edge over the Bulldogs in the Oct. 22 Mt. SAC Invitational meet, and the Mavericks beat Ramona by 9 points in the CIF section meet. “I really like the rivalry and the competition and really like their coach,” Albanese said. Bill Vice is the Mavericks’ head cross country coach. “I have a lot of respect for him and what he’s done,” Albanese said. “It’s an honor to be able to finish ahead of them.” “It was an awesome day for Ramona High School, and it was a good day for San Diego,” Blankenbaker said.

Derochie was voted as the team’s Most Valuable Player, Darrough received Outstanding Defensive Player and Team Inspirational Player honors, and Sharpe took the Outstanding Offensive Player award. Abby Roulier received the Outstanding Improvement accolade, and Jennah Hickle was voted as the team’s Floor Leader. Ramona had five seniors in 2011: Owens, Sharpe, Darrough, outside hitter Samantha Waelchli and defensive specialist Jessica Berman. “I’m just sad to see this group go,” Halfaker said. The banquet also saw the presentation of allacademic team honors to junior and senior varsity players with at least a 3.0 grade point average. Eight of Ramona’s 10 juniors or seniors achieved the threshold; Sharpe led the squad with a 4.32 grade point average while the lowest of the eight qualifying players had a GPA of 3.94.

“That’s pretty amazing,” Halfaker said. The awards banquet also saw the presentation of junior varsity and novice awards. The JV team’s Bulldog Award went to Christina Barrameda. Makayla Torsak and Callie Guasti shared the JV’s Most Effective Offensive Player award, Cassidy Shields and Hannah Seits were co-recipients of the Most Inspirational honor, Sophie Proctor received Most Effective Defensive Player, Alex Kershaw was given the Most Effective Server award, and Cory Zuniga took home the Most Improved honor. The novice Bulldog Award recipient was Renee Chambers. Stephanie Kovach and Alicia Podoris shared Most Inspirational recognition, Amanda Kotas received both Most Effective Offensive Player and Most Effective Server, Claire Hagan was the Most Effective Defensive Player, and Kayla Taylor received the Most Improved award.

Athlete OF THE WEEK

Stidham was prepared for state meet By JOE NAIMAN It would have been amazing enough that Tristan Stidham’s time of 16:25 at the state cross-country meet Nov. 26 at Fresno’s Woodward Park was a personal record for a 5,000-meter (3.1-mile) course by 55 seconds. What is even more amazing is that Stidham’s previous personal record of 17:20 was posted in the Sept. 10 Showdown at Sundown meet’s junior varsity race. By the state meet Stidham had earned a varsity position, and he finished fifth among Ramona runners. “I was just mentally prepared for it,” Stidham said of the state meet. “A lot of it was Coach Steve. He just got us prepared for it as best as he could.” Coach Steve Albanese placed Stidham in the varsity races for Palomar League

dual meets. He fared as high as seventh among Ramona runners in dual meet races. He was the Bulldogs’ sixth finisher at the Palomar League meet Nov. 12 at Kit Carson Park, posting a time of 17:22 on the 5,000-meter course. His time of 17:21 on Morley Field’s 5,000-meter course Nov. 19 placed him sixth among Ramona runners at the CIF section meet and 46th overall among the 147 Division II runners. “He’s taken leaps and bounds, taken great strides, in becoming a solid runner

for our team and it’s been a surprise, a good surprise, for us,” Albanese said. Stidham started the season Sept. 3 at the Vaquero Stampede with a time of 11:45 on the 2.15-mile Lindo Lake course, which placed him ninth among Ramona boys in the juniorsenior race. His performance in the Showdown at Sundown race placed him second overall, behind teammate Josh Spieker, in the junior varsity race. Stidham was Ramona’s top finisher in the junior varsity race at the Mt. SAC

Invitational meet Oct. 22, completing the 2.93-mile course in 16:49. He also had a time of 16:55 in the junior race Sept. 17 on the 2.95-mile Morley Field course. “Tristan has consistently been our between seven and nine guy,” Albanese said. “He stepped up huge.” Stidham was born in Poway and lived in Ramona until moving to Big Pine while in elementary school due to his ill grandmother. The family later returned to Ramona, and he attended fifth and sixth grade at James Dukes Elementary School before attending Olive Peirce Middle School and Ramona High School. Stidham’s mother, Tracey, is originally from Big Pine, while his father, Larry, is from Indiana. Stidham has one brother, Jeremiah Foster, who is 12 years older and was a left tackle for Ramona High School’s football team. Stidham did not play any high school sports in ninth grade and took up cross country as a sophomore. “I thought I was a decent runner,” he said. He spent the 2010 cross country season on Ramona’s junior varsity. “That just led to me getting into track,” he said. Stidham ran junior varsity races during the Bulldogs’ Spring 2011 track and field season. “I felt like I made improvements,” he said. Albanese noted that Stidham was able to post a fiveminute mile by the end of the track season. Stidham spent the summer following Albanese’s training guidelines, running nine miles each day. “We all put in a lot of work this summer,” Stidham said. “He’s come a long way in the one year that he’s been running,” Albanese said. Cross country team scores add the positions of a team’s first five finishers. The sixth and seventh finishers are not scored but can add points to other teams. Up to 12 runners per school are allowed at the league meet, and Albanese utilized the maximum total. Stidham’s time gave

him 26th place among the race’s 68 runners. “The league finals I felt like I had a really good race,” Stidham said. “When I was running CIF I didn’t do as good.” Stidham didn’t have the benefit of a calculator when assessing his loss of 20 positions between the league and section meets. His time was in the 39th percentile at the league meet and in the 32nd percentile at the CIF meet. Nobody will dispute, however, his desire to improve upon his CIF meet performance at the state meet. “I’m not really sure what happened actually,” he said. “I was just thinking about leaving everything on the field and doing everything I could.” The calculator reveals that finishing 65th among the 183 runners at the state meet placed him in the 36th percentile. Team score positions did not include runners who qualified as individuals, and Stidham placed 48th for team score purposes. Including individuals as well as scored runners, Stidham’s time was 24th among non-seniors. Ramona, which placed second by 9 points to section Division II champion La Costa Canyon in the

CIF section meet, placed third in the state meet and beat the Mavericks by two points. “I felt like I had to pick it up, otherwise my team wouldn’t have had a chance to do as good as we did,” Stidham said. Albanese’s goal was for his runners to set personal records and peak at the end of the season. “Steve’s timing, his program, I feel that’s what’s helped me the most,” Stidham said. Stidham will run on the Bulldogs’ track team this spring. His times at the league, section, and state cross-country meets placed him third among Ramona’s non-seniors, and his cross ntry team goal for 2012 will be to return to the state meet. “My expectations for myself are just to knock off about a minute from each of my times,” he said of his senior season goals. If Stidham can knock a minute off this year’s state meet time, a performance of 15:25 would have finished fifth at this year’s meet. It might seem like an difficult task to erase a minute from what was already a 55-second personal record. But given his improvement from the beginning of this season, working on it for a year could very well make it happen.

A noteworthy season for Ramona High’s marching band and color guard By JENNA KUBIAK “Just Simply Outstanding” is the phrase that best describes the 2011 marching season for the Ramona High School Royal Alliance Marching Band and Color Guard. The marching band and color guard have had an outstanding, successful season this year. The band competes in two separate circuits: SCSBOA (Southern California School Band & Orchestra Association) and MBOS (Marching Band Open Series), which is a more difficult, competitive circuit. In addition, two of those competitions include “band reviews,” also known as competitive parades. The show theme this year was “Classic to Contemporary,” which consisted of classic music and drill performance that became more contemporary as the show progressed and featured entertaining visuals as well. In SCSBOA, the band was awarded five first place, two second place, and two third place trophies this season. In addition, they were awarded the AM Sweepstakes Trophy at Mira Mesa High School, the trophy awarded to the band with the highest combined field show and parade scores. At the Scripps Ranch High School Tournament,

the band won first place with a 67, and the color guard won. At the Mt. Carmel High School Band Review & Field Tournament, they won first place field show with a 76.25 and first place parade with an 85.25 under Drum Major Jeanette DeWeerd. The Color Guard won second place field show with a 67.0 and first place parade with an 82.3. At the Mira Mesa High School Band Review and Field Tournament, the band won second with a 72.30 in field show and second in the parade with an 83.50. In addition, the percussion section received a second place reward specific to their class with an 81.0. The color guard took third place in the parade with a 77.5, despite missing three members for an SAT test that morning. The Parade drum major for this competition, Myiah Winn, received a second place award for drum major in the Parade Competition. The band also attended two MBOS Tournaments this season. The number of band members increased to 64 members, so the marching band moved up one division in the MBOS circuit. The band received fifth place out of eight bands with a 63.55 at its first competition, and placed seventh out of 11 with a 68.65 at the Championships Competition.

Being a young band in a larger, more competitive division and the smallest in its class, this was considered an exceptional achievement. This year, the band purchased two new equipment trailers, for which band members are very grateful. The band’s equipment truck caught on fire last year on the way to the championships tournament. The band thanks the parents, families and community for their support in helping raise funds to purchase these trailers. Band members also said they are greatly thankful for the parents’ efforts. Without the parents’ help and support, many things would not be possible. It takes approximately 15 parents at football games and 20 parents at competitions to fulfill all the roles needed. These parents help out with many things: inspecting uniforms, fixing

hair, loading and moving equipment to and from performances, giving band members water, chaperoning, serving meals at competitions, and putting seat covers on stands at football games. The community is also thanked for supporting the band by coming to concerts and providing donations. The band is not done

performing after marching season, however. During winter, the students transition into a “symphonic” band, which is a form of concert band. The public can see the band perform at various concerts throughout the year. The band will host its Winter Concert on Tuesday, Dec. 13, at 7 p.m. in the RHS gymnasium. The band hopes to also

have an exceptional symphonic band season this upcoming year, just like the marching band season. Band members strive to keep improving year after year and look forward to entertaining everyone with their melodious presentations. Jenna Kubiak, a Ramona High School student, is Royal Alliance Band & Color Guard publicist.

Workers pour concrete for $450 million San Vicente dam project Workers began pouring concrete last Tuesday for the San Diego County Water Authority’s $450 million project to raise the height of the San Vicente Dam. The dam’s height will go from 220 feet to 337 feet, which will allow the San

Vicente Reservoir to hold an additional 150,000 acre-feet of water. Projected completion is two years. One acre-foot is considered enough to supply two average singlefamily households for one year. “This vital regional wa-

ter infrastructure project will help enhance the reliability of San Diego County’s water supply for generations to come,’’ said Michael Hogan, chairman of the CWA Board of Directors. The project is one of the last in the CWA’s program

to improve the region’s emergency storage capacity in case water deliveries from the north are cut off. The larger reservoir will also help the San Diego region get through drought years. Raising the dam will require 650,000 cubic yards

of concrete, enough to fill a football field to 28 stories high, according to the CWA. The project includes an improved access road, expanded boat ramp and parking lot, and new shade trees and picnic areas.

The CWA plans to refill the reservoir between late 2014 and 2017, depending on rainfall, supply and demand for water. San Vicente Dam was completed in 1943, and the reservoir was connected to the CWA’s aqueduct four years later.
