It took hours to set up. People were scurrying everywhere. The lighting crew hung lights and reflectors and diffusers. The sound crew tested microphones and sound levels. The camera crew set up their cameras for various shooting angles. The director gave last minute instructions to the actors. The “all quiet” signal was given. Then director B. Harrison Smith said “action!” and filming began in the office of Temecula Mayor Maryann Edwards in City Hall. Thus, began the last day of 30 days of shooting the first major feature film in the local Temecula Valley.

In his most recently aired episode, Dino Luciano of Murrieta and the other contestants of the show “Masterchef” were given a skill-based challenge that was aptly titled “Silenced by the Lambs,” as contestants were instructed to “french,” or trim the fat from a rack of lamb. Under an hour time restraint, the contestants were also given a brief lesson by judge Gordon Ramsay. In the kitchen, all contestants worked side by side to finish their skill test with unsuccessful contestants competing in an elimination round. “Those who didn’t make it had to recreate Gordon Ramsay’s signature herb-crusted rack of lamb,” Luciano explained. Luciano was amongst the

Hemet Skateboard Park feasibility study approved by city council Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

After many years of petitions, city council appearances, fundraising attempts and the appointment of a Skate Park Plaza Task Force, plans and hopes for a skate park facility for youth in Hemet is finally moving forward. Councilwoman Bonnie Wright, an longtime advocate of building a state-of-the-art skateboard park in the city, was smiling at the June 27 city council meeting as she led to way to getting the city council’s approval for a $10,000 to $20,000 feasibility study for the skate park through the city’s master plan. Citing the two skate park developers who have already come

forward seeking to build the facility and the work completed by the Skate Park Plaza Task Force appointed by the council about a year ago which showed the continuing interest in building the recreational offering, Wright said, “We have worked on it for a year now.” During a work study session called just hours before the June 27 meeting, the council heard Wright say that there have been many other unsuccessful efforts to get the skate park off the ground and suggested the city invest in a feasibility study. She said the project is very important to the youth in the community and has been long overdue. She noted that it is important that the city meet the recreational

needs of all the residents in the city including the youth to provide safe places for them to play and to enjoy. The council unanimously approved that a feasibility study go forward on the skate park, but at this time, no location has been identified and no money is available for its immediate construction. It is estimated that building a full-service skateboard park would cost between $120,000 to $500,000, according to skateboard park fundraising websites. A movement by citizens in Hemet began about five years ago to build a skate park for the many youths and adults who enjoy the sport. Other cities like Menifee, Murrieta and Temecula have built

sioner Nicole Tamez. With those requests in mind, the commission was formed a year ago, and studies into its feasibility began. She told the council she was confident such a facility could be in operation within 18 months. The only thing that would hold up the project would be funding. She said the committee looked into the city purchase of a number of different land sites, but the cost would be prohibitive. Tamez suggested the city should continue to seek other properties that might be more reasonably priced. The feasibility study will look into that possibility and other fundraising avenues. It will take time, the council noted.

skate parks that are in regular use. As long ago as 2008, skateboard enthusiasts, Roxy Rogel and Kimberlyn Jacobsen, came to the Hemet City Council with a petition seeking the construction of a skate park in Hemet. The petitions bore almost 50 signatures and the petition was filed, but without funding, the city was unable to do much about building it. The petition said, “If there is a new skate park created, the skateboarders of the city would show their athleticism, abilities and creativity. By building a skate park, skateboarders would focus positively instead of negatively.” Since then, requests for a skate park continue to be submitted to the city and City Park Commis-

Drones over ‘Eagle’ fire negatively affect fire suppression efforts LAKE MATHEWS – During the “Eagle” Fire near Lake Mathews in Riverside County, a privatelyoperated drone was spotted over the fire area, causing a 10-minute suspension in aerial firefighting operations. A second drone was spotted again over the fire after firefighting aircraft returned to Ryan Air Attack Base. Aerial firefighting aircraft, such

as air tankers and helicopters fly at very low altitudes; sometimes just a few hundred feet above the ground. “If you fly, we can’t,” is the message that Cal Fire officials cannot stress enough. Drones flying in or near a fire or incident where an aircraft is working presents a critical life-safety hazard; not only to the public, but to the firefighters in the air and on

the ground who work tirelessly to extinguish these fires. The delay in pulling aircraft from wildland fires can make fire suppression challenging. Cal Fire and the Riverside County Fire Department urges those who fly drones to be responsible and keep them away from wildland fires or other incidents where emergency aircraft fly. Aircraft can

be dispatched to a fire at any time during the incident. Similar to a crime tip line, people who have information about irresponsible drone operators who have flown close to disasters and emergencies can call (844) 3766311. This telephone line is not for reporting emergencies. Significant incident information is posted and updated 24/7 by the Cal Fire and the

Riverside County Fire Department Public Affairs Bureau, along with incident photos when available. For more information on significant incidents within the Riverside County Fire Department jurisdiction, visit www.rvcfire.org or find Cal Fire/Riverside County Fire Department on Facebook.

County receives $6 million grant for new program to help stop offenders from recommitting crimes RIVERSIDE – A $6 million grant will help Riverside County officials provide mental-health and substance-abuse treatment that may reduce the chances people will commit crimes again after they are released from jail. The grant from the Board of State and Community Corrections funds a new program operated by Riverside University Health System-Behavioral Health. The services will be provided to eligible individuals who are seeking early release from prison under Proposition 47. The program is scheduled to begin July 1. Voters approved Proposition 47 in 2014 to reduce prison overcrowding by diverting certain low-level offenders to substance-

abuse treatment and rehabilitation programs. The new, evidencebased program will reach 180 participants across the county each year over the three years of the grant. The program will focus on those with misdemeanor offenses, people referred by the Veterans Court program and referrals from the county Probation Department. Without recovery and rehabilitation programs, offenders often revert to familiar habits and activities that can put them at risk of reoffending. Those services can help improve coping skills, stress management techniques, workforce training and good decision-making. Approximately $103 million in grants were announced, and

many struggled with cutting off the right amount of fat, Luciano said. Many had cooked with lamb before, but they never actually dealt with frenching the lamb off the bones. Cleaning the lamb requires getting a hold of it, while cutting off the fat and other components that stick to the bone. It’s tricky and technical, but

RUHS-Behavioral Health received the maximum grant available. The department is one of 23 agencies chosen from among more than 58 applicants, and the amount is the largest for any recipient of these Proposition 47 grant funds in the Inland Empire. An advisory committee of community-based organizations and partners in recovery treatment will provide a comprehensive network of care to bring the best available resources to promote their success, Steve Steinberg, director of Behavioral Health, said. “The focus is to address trauma and other factors associated with reoffending and reincarceration,” he said. “We believe we can show people a future that is different

chefs must know how to do it, Luciano said. “You are trying to get the right amount of it [the fat] because it is a very temperamental thing. If you cut too much, it all falls apart; it was overall very nerve-wracking,” he said. Luciano even admitted how he cut his hand several times during the challenge. His performance, however, landed him a safe spot in the top half of contestants. While on the balcony, the experience of competing during the challenge stuck with him, he said. “You have all the pressure trying to beat everyone, but at the same time you’re not even trying to be the best,” Luciano said. “You’re just trying to place.” For the perspective of the viewer, camera shots typically pan over chefs with wandering eyes and Luciano commented on his strategy. “We’re all focused into what we are doing most of the time, but sometimes you look around to see what other people are doing,” he said. “But I usually try to focus into what I’m doing.” Luciano now moves on to face a new set of skill challenges. “Masterchef” airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on FOX.

A mystery small single engine jet whizzed above the crowds who sat curbside and in parking lots on San Jacinto Avenue a few minutes before the San Jacinto Sheriff’s Posse bearing the flags of the United States and California passed by. Heads bowed and hands over their hearts the thousands paid tribute to our Nation’s forefathers and those that have died to give us the freedoms and the Great Free Nation we have today during the parade.

San Jacinto City Council to lift ‘discing’ prohibition for weed abatement Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The San Jacinto City Council of 2007, responding to citizen’s complaints about the area’s high winds blowing unhealthful heavy dust in the air from agricultural field discing and property damage, passed an ordinance prohibiting discing on real property. The prohibition included discing on vacant properties and property not being used in farming operations. It allowed “mow only” on these properties. The major winter rains this past winter have creating heavy vegetation growth along with more recent rapid drying conditions, citywide weed removal has become very difficult for city crews and property owners. The heavy dried out weeds are now considered an extremely serious fire hazard. These conditions prompted San Jacinto Development Director Sharon Paisley and staff to ask the City Council to call a special meeting July 6 to approve an Urgency

Ordinance to remove the prohibition on discing and amending other weed abatement measures from city ordinances. When discing was prohibited it required the mow only weed removal. The city staff and fire officials reported the mower blades can cause sparks when striking debris, that could ignite a serious brush or grass fire that could endanger the public’s health and safety and major property destruction. The approval of the urgency ordinance by the council allows weed abatement contractors to disc instead of mow, which “may help to smother sparks by churning the dirt as the weeds are pulled. The urgency ordinance added several safety measures to the City’s Dust Control chapter requiring “that property owners clear the property of any debris before undertaking weed abatement and requiring active water trucks through May 1 through Oct. 31 when discing is undertaken on vacant land to control dust and reduce the risk of sparks.”

Local Election Integrity Project concerned about inactive voter registrations, fraud Will Fritz VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

An organization calling for stricter voter identification laws in California claims to have found five counties in the state with hundreds of thousands more registered voters than voting-age citizens. The Election Integrity Project said an audit of data from California’s VoteCal database for the counties of Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Solano and San Mateo found a combined total of over 1 million more registered voters than there should be. In the VoteCal system, there are no counties listed with higher totals of registered voters compared to eligible ones. However, the EIP says VoteCal is not counting the number of inactive voters – voters who have neither voted for an extended period of time nor responded to mailings – still registered in the state. “Many have moved or are deceased and according to federal law, they should have been removed long ago,” a June 13 press release from the EIP entitled “California appears to invite voter fraud” said. The data all come from records from the California Secretary of State’s office. “Why is this important?” the release continued. “It’s easy for anyone to claim to be an inactive voter and vote in their name. Voter fraud is the perfect crime since California does not require voter ID.” Paine said June 29 because of the combination of high numbers of inactive registered voters and a lack of a voter ID system, she and others are no longer convinced of the legitimacy of California elections. “Having such large numbers of inactive registrants on the voter rolls opens the door to voter impersonation,” Linda Paine, EIP president, said. “By perpetuating an environment that allows people to vote fraudulently, the Secretary of State fails to protect the civil rights of California voters and clearly undermines the integrity of elections in our state. “I have driven approximately 200,000 miles in the last six years training people and meeting with people, and what I hear all the time is people have stopped voting, and they say, why bother?’” Paine, who started EIP in 2010, said. “They don’t believe their vote counts.” Voter fraud has not been shown to exist on a large scale, and according to The New York Times, the 2016 election was no different. However, Paine said this is “laughable.” She said her organization was started after receiving a phone call from a Santa Clarita college student who found someone had voted in his name. And she said the EIP receives calls about voter impersonation all the time, though because California lacks voter ID, violations are hard to prove. “If the only test that’s being used to determine whether voter fraud happens is ‘are there prosecutions?’ then we know that they’re not look-

Wildomar Birthday Bash to feature Big Truth, Little Lies

ing hard enough,” Paine said. EIP also deploys observers to polling places across the state. The organization claimed June 13 that its observers found close to 3,000 violations of voter laws during the last election. Most of these violations had to do with voter privacy concerns, such as booths set up to face poll workers. The organization has, though, been criticized for its tactics in the past. Kathay Feng, president of public participation advocacy organization California Common Cause, said in a 2012 KPBS 89.5 FM report that EIP creates a hostile voting environment by complaining to poll workers about trivial issues. “It’s unfortunate that they would see it that way,” Paine said of this criticism. She said EIP observers are trained only to interact with poll workers, not with voters, and politely inform them of any issues. “We instruct them to simply show their training manual, which has the law coded, whatever code section it is and then they can read for themselves,” Paine said. “And we have found maybe 80 percent, approximately, of the inspectors will actually be thankful and make the changes. And we always hear them asking us, why aren’t they taught the election laws?” For more local news, visit www. myvalleynews.com.

NFPA and ESFI work to reduce fatalities caused by electric shock drowning in pools and at marinas TEMECULA - With summer in full swing, the National Fire Protection Association and Electrical Safety Foundation International are joining forces to remind people about the potential electrical hazards in swimming pools, hot tubs and spas, on board boats and in the waters surrounding boats, marinas and launch ramps. Electric shock drowning can occur when faulty wiring sends an electrical current into the water, which passes through the body, causes paralysis and ultimately results in drowning. “Most consumers, including boat and pool owners and swimmers, are not aware of the risks of electric shock drowning,” Lorraine Carli, NFPA’s vice president of outreach and advocacy, said. “By sharing our water safety resources, NFPA and ESFI hope to educate people so that they can safely enjoy summer water activities.” ESFI and NFPA have pool and marina safety resources, including tip sheets and infographics,

brochures, reference guides and checklists that cover safety devices, common electric shock drowning causes and prevention methods, response protocol and marina electrical safety considerations. ESFI and NFPA also recommend the following tips for swimmers, pool and boat owners. For swimmers, never swim near a marina, dock or boatyard or near a boat while it’s running. While in a pool, hot tub or spa, look out for underwater lights that are not working properly, flicker or work intermittently. If a swimmer feels a tingling sensation while in a pool, they should immediately stop swimming in their current direction. Try and swim in a direction where they had not felt the tingling. Exit the water as quickly as possible; avoid using metal ladders or rails. Touching metal may increase the risk of shock. For pool owners, when putting in a new pool, hot tub or spa, be sure the wiring is performed by an electrician experienced in the

special safety requirements for these types of installations. Have a qualified electrician periodically inspect and – where necessary – replace or upgrade the electrical devices or equipment that keep the pool, spa or hot tub electrically safe. The electrician should show the pool owner how to turn off all power in case of an emergency. Make sure any overhead lines maintain the proper distance over a pool and other structures, such as a diving board. If there are any doubts, contact a qualified electrician or local utility company to make sure power lines are a safe distance away. For boat owners, avoid entering the water when launching or loading a boat. Docks or boats can leak electricity into the water causing water electrification. Each year, and after a major storm, have the boat’s electrical system inspected and upgraded by a qualified marine electrician to be sure it meets the required codes of that area, including the American Boat & Yacht Council. Check with the marina owner who also should know if the marina’s electrical sys-

The Electrical Safety Foundation International is dedicated exclusively to promoting electrical safety in the home and the workplace. ESFI proudly sponsors National Electrical Safety Month each May and engages in public education campaigns throughout the year to prevent electrical fires, injuries and fatalities. To learn more about ESFI and electrical safety, visit www.esfi.org. Founded in 1896, NFPA is a global, nonprofit organization devoted to eliminating death, injury, property and economic loss due to fire, electrical and related hazards. The association delivers information and knowledge through more than 300 consensus codes and standards, research, training, education, outreach and advocacy and by partnering with others who share an interest in furthering the NFPA mission. For more information, visit www.nfpa.org. All NFPA codes and standards can be viewed online for free at www. nfpa.org/freeaccess.

tem has recently been inspected to meet the required codes of the area, including the National Electrical Code. Have ground fault circuit interrupters installed on the boat; use only portable GFCIs or shore power cords, including “Y” adapters that are “UL-Marine Listed” when using electricity near water. Test GFCIs monthly. “Many swimmers, boat and marina operators unknowingly place themselves in danger by swimming near electric-powered boats and docks,” Brett Brenner, ESFI president, said. “As incidents of electric shock drowning continue to occur every year, we are collaborating with NFPA to emphasize the importance of regular electrical inspections of pools, boats, and docks performed by qualified electricians to help prevent these tragedies while out on the water.” ESFI has additional spa tips and resources for marina operators on raising awareness of electric shock drowning, as well as steps for keeping marinas and boats safer for patrons.

Funeral services are pending for the gifted and renowned Hemet High School music teacher and jazz musician Jeff Tower who died of an aggressive brain cancer Tuesday, July 4. Funeral Services are now pending at McWane Family Funeral Home and have yet to be announced by the family. Tower, 63, had just recovered from another illness when he was diagnosed by doctors having glioblastoma, a very aggressive brain cancer. Because of he and his family’s mounting medical costs only weeks before his death, his many former students, alumni, friends and members of the Diamond Valley Arts Council, of which he was a member, scheduled a special benefit performance Thursday, July 13, to help. Tower, was best known for guiding his Hemet High School band students into to becoming a nationally known marching band, concert band, a jazz band, jazz combo band and performing for the musical theater. Many of his high school students, because of his tutelage have become profes-

“Jeff worked his students pretty hard,” said Kern, “but he made them the musicians that they are today. They all owe their success to him.” In 2016 Tower was inaugurated into the California Alliance for Jazz’s Education Lifetime Award. An honor afforded few musicians in the state. Master of Music degree in Trombone Performance at the University of Redlands. He later earned an Honorary Doctorate Degree from Pacific Western University. He came to Hemet High School as its Director of Bands in 1977 and retired 30 years later after bringing the high schools bands to national recognition and recording albums of their tours across the nation. Many of his students today are music teachers in local schools and band directors in other schools across the nation. Some of those students will be joining in the benefit performances for Tower at DVAC’s “Jeff Tower/ Friend Jamm” Thursday, July 13. Kern said all proceeds from the concert will go to help the Tower family. Exact time and dates for funeral services will be announced by the family this coming week.

sional musicians and music teachers. Among those is Jessica Arellano, known as one of the nation’s top smooth jazz and Latin pop artists, and Jason Strain, noted singer-songwriter of Country, Rock & Blues who now performs in San Diego. He earned the title of one of the nation’s top high school band teachers after guiding the Hemet High School Bulldog bands into Rose Parade appearances, the Aloha Bowl, the Monteux and Playboy festivals and multiple WIBC, Midwest and IAJE conventions. The band and orchestras won many sweepstakes awards as various World of Music Festivals and was selected as a Grammy Signature Program. In his career, he has played his trombone and performed with such music greats as Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, Mel Torme, Sarah Vaughn, Ray Charles, Sammy Davis Jr. and Tony Bennett among others. Elena Kern, an artist at the Diamond Valley Arts Center, said Tower had his own jazz band that played on the DVAC stage that included Hemet Police Chief Dave Brown, Strait and a number of other local musicians and high school music teachers.

Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard veterans who missed out on their high school graduations due to military service have until Oct. 4 to apply for a diploma through the 2017 Operation Recognition Program. More than 300 veterans have received those all-important documents through Operation Recognition since 2007.

‘Breaking Bad’ actor Dean Norris opens performing arts center in Murrieta MURRIETA – Dean Norris, a well-known character actor, is opening a performing arts center in Murrieta in July. Norris starred in the iconic series “Breaking Bad,” as well as the CBS Stephen King and Steven Spielberg hit series “Under the Dome.” He is currently starring in the hit TNT drama-comedy “Claws,” as well as the upcoming film “Death Wish” with Bruce Willis. Norris’s first introduction to the arts came from a local high school group that he joined in his teens, and Norris hopes to provide a similar introduction to the arts to local children in the Murrieta and Temecula area.

Norris’s vision is to create a worldclass integrated dance, theater and acting program and to bring together some of the highest quality teachers in the Southern California area. Norris will be actively participating in the acting program, in addition to offering a master class on acting techniques, Sunday, Aug. 13. N-PAC, the Norris Performing Arts Center, will offer instruction in dance, vocal training, acting, digital arts, creative writing and creative arts such as camera work, editing and YouTube channels. Additionally, N-PAC will offer workshops with entertainment industry professionals.

Upcoming workshops include commercial auditions, film and television acting and more. N-PAC, the Norris Performing Arts Center, is located in Murrieta in a new 11,000-square-foot facility, 41640 Corning Place. “The city of Murrieta, the Murrieta school district and the city leaders have been incredibly welcoming and helpful to us, and we are honored to help promote arts education in our community,” Norris said. For more information, contact Shawna Sarnowski at (951) 7683930, info@N-PAC.com or www.NPAC.com.

tion 51440 authorizes the granting of retroactive high school diplomas to eligible veterans. Section 51430 also authorizes the retroactive granting of diplomas to Japanese-American citizens whose internment by federal order in World War II prevented them from graduating from their hometown high school.

Local a few permits per year have been processed. “We currently have a continual flow of productions in the queue waiting for approval,” Lowell said. According to Lowell, who processes the film permits for the city of Temecula, the film projects for the first half of the year include three feature films, two television series, four documentary films, one commercial, two music videos, three reality TV episodes and one short film. “I have been kept very, very busy,” Lowell said. She is currently a part-time employee who also scouts locations, coordinates housing and catering and acts as a liaison between directors, producers, location scouts, managers, city services and local resources. “My job is to make sure everything goes smoothly and well, from permitting to road closures to food,” Lowell said. “This is good business for the local economy.” Indeed the cast and crew for

In an earlier interview, Executive Producer Rick Finkelstein said that they had some resistance from some of the cast and crew who had never been out here before. “They thought we were going out to the boonies, but when we got here, man, this place is fantastic!” Finelstein said. “The studio was great. The people – storeowners, citizens, public officials – are wonderful in how they treat us, how they welcome us! The word will definitely be getting out about this area.” This film is just one of the 18 films, TV shows and commercials shot in the Temecula Valley since January, Bonnie Lowell, project coordinator for Film Temecula Valley, a division of Visit Temecula Valley, said. In previous years, only

Many of the episodes are shot at The Temecula Cheese Company with Chef Shawna Smoot. The director is Michael Herbach, and the producer is Vlada Vladic. Sonia Perez’ cable cooking show, “Cooking off the Vine” is also filmed locally at different locales, including local wineries. The promotional music video for Temecula Road, produced by Fictitious Productions for Disney Radio’s “The Next Big Thing,” was also filmed locally.

“Garlic and Gunpowder” numbered over 100 people for the thirty-day shoot. In addition to staying in local hotels and eating in local restaurants, they shot scenes in local businesses and locations. “There are a lot of great locations in the area for a variety of scenes, time periods and film genres,” Lowell said. For example, the Hollywood South Studios Productions’ feature film “Desolate” was shot at the oldest house in Temecula on Pujol Street. A re-creation of the interior was made at their studios, and inside scenes were shot at the studio.

McBride, Joe Nichols, Josh Turner, Sara Evans, Eli Young Band and Love and Theft and touring with Jessie James Decker, Temecula Road made their international debut at the Country to Country Music Festival in London and had another debut at the iconic Stagecoach Music Festival this year. From their name to their videos, the group is promoting Temecula. “My Classic Car” has filmed an episode in Temecula. “Jay Leno’s Garage,” season 3 of the TV reality show was shot here in March and has not aired yet. Producers for the show were Abby Schwarzwalder, Sammy Yamada and David Swift. Dan Henderson’s mixed martial arts gym in Temecula was the scene for another TV series shoot. In addition to unique locations, there are local studios that are able to provide many of the same services as Hollywood studios at lower costs for studios, production and labor. There are additional cost-savings with fees, food and lodging. “Our local resources include film production studios,” Lowell said. “We have a working relationship with JDS Video & Media Productions, who produces “Good Day Temecula.” JDS is a full-functioning, 6,500-square-foot studio with a recently-completed, 40-foot green screen studio separate from production stage, additional a full production stage, full dressing and makeup studio and warehouse for building sets. They can also provide a line producer, camera man, crew, equipment and extra actors and actresses if needed. Owners Scott and Diane Strand have been in the industry for over 25 years. “We also have a working relationship with Revshare/Wolfe Store Studios who provide production, post-production, mobile production and editing services,” Lowell said. Joseph Spillman and Eric Whedbee provide specialty services. Director Brad Bruce and his wife, Executive Producer Kimahna Bruce, opened Hollywood South Studios in Murrieta three years ago. “We were just a group of friends who made movies in our homes and garages or wherever we could find locations,” Kimahna Bruce said. “But the cost of studio time is just so high in L.A. With the encouragement of Murrieta’s Economic Development Director, we opened a 5,700 square-foot facility. We are a full-functioning studio complete with workshops, green screen, set design, editing and special effects, and we are already outgrowing this space.” Hollywood South Studios has a complete crew with Producer Kale Flores, Director of Photography Jeremy Thornton, Assistant Director Tina Johnson, Head Gaffer Demitri Cagey and Production Sound Mixer Jonny Ramaglia. Group 1 Productions, run by owner and producer Alan Cook, has a studio that can accommodate small productions and has specialty cameras available. With studio resources, a variety of film locations and a “filmfriendly” environment, the Temecula Valley is attracting more and more interest. The Entertainment Factory returns to Temecula in the fall to film Steven Chase’s directorial debut, “Stan the Man,” starring Chase, Katherine Kelly Lang, Anne Leighton and Judy Tenuta. Hollywood South Studios also has a half a dozen film projects lined up behind “Desolate.” Riverside County set up a film commission years ago through their Economic Development Agency, and so far this year the commission has issued 236 permits countywide, accounting for 499 production days, Stephanie Stethem said, 22 percent of those permits are for feature films. The city of Riverside has processed 24 permits this year, while Temecula is up to 19. “There is a lot happening here, and more in the works,” Lowell said. “There is tremendous potential for growth of the film industry, exposure for this area and positive economic impact, not only from the visiting film crews, but also from people who see our area through those films and want to visit.” Film crews, actors and movie shoots may be more and more part of the local landscape in the near future as Hollywood discovers what the Temecula Valley has to offer.

Local Pony Pony All-Stars All-Stars blazing blazing trails trails Local during summer summer tournament tournament play play during JP Raineri SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM

It’s no secret that Baseball in the Temecula Valley has become very competitive for children of all ages. With the recent success of high school programs like Temecula Valley (2014), Murrieta Mesa (2016) and Tahquitz High School (2017) winning CIF Championships over the past few years, the upbringing of the players in the local youth leagues is usually where it all starts. For the local recreation league managers, the post season fun is where most focus their energy as the spring seasons come to an end because when the summer starts, that’s when the gloves come off. Competitive baseball can start as early as 5-years-old, which is great for those hard-core parents, but it is not for the faint of heart either. Summer plans have to get put on hold and of course travel expenses can get a little out of control the further into the national tournaments that a team goes. The last few years there has been an increase in local teams competing and much success has come for a quite a few of the All-Star teams from the local PONY Baseball organizations, which stands for “Protect our Nation’s Youth.” PONY is one of the largest advocates for youth baseball and softball internationally and some would even say has more of a fan base than that of its Little League counterpart because of the implementation of real baseball rules at an earlier age. PONY, also with bigger field dimensions, does not get the same attention Little League does due to the relationship with ESPN that they have. In PONY All-Stars, many of the teams are separated by their city name and then given a color since some leagues may have two or three teams representing the same division. Instead of trophies, the teams go all-out to bring big championship banners back to their leagues, which get proudly hung on the outfield fences for the up and coming teams to see for years to come. The start of tournament play began in June and was broken up into District and Sectional Brackets where host cities all over southern California, including Murrieta, French Valley, Hemet and San Jacinto welcomed many an All-Star player and their families. Teams that win at the District level are given an automatic advance to Region qualifiers and those that lose were given a second chance in the Section arena where the winner and runner-up also get to advance to Regions as well. As the 2017 post season PONY tournaments have gotten underway, teams from our area have already lived up to the expectations of being the more competitive teams. A World Series berth is what teams are seeking and of course the final win is the icing on the cake for these young athletes and their families. Two teams in the history of the local leagues have ever won the coveted title of being the nation’s best and that was the Murrieta Bronco 11U Orange All-Star team in 2015 and the 7U Kid Pitch Red All-Star team from Temecula. Over the next few weeks the Valley News will be doing an All-Star wrap-up for not only the PONY and Little League Baseball teams from the area, but also for girls’ softball teams that have played very well in the post season for their leagues. If you would like your team covered or are unsure if we have your team on our list, please email jpraineri@ reedermedia.com The following list includes teams representing the Shetland age groups through Mustang 9U. The remainder of the updates for the local teams that have taken on the All-Star journey this summer in the Mustang 10U brackets and above will be out next week.

Sporting events on a budget – It’s possible with a plan Nathaniel Sillin SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Season ticket holder or first timer, watching your team take the field or visiting new teams in a different venue, gripping your seat tightly during the finger-biting last minutes of a close game or cheering on a decisive win – sports can certainly be some of the best entertainment possible. Whether you enjoy baseball, football, soccer, hockey or any other sport, the roaring crowd, sights and smells that fill a stadium have something to offer everyone. A little planning can help keep your costs under control, and you can apply the ideas below to almost any sporting event. Save money on the tickets. You may be sticking with your home team through thick and thin, but you can still look for ways to save money.

Avoiding the most popular games, such as those on the weekends and when you’re playing against bigname teams, can be help. To further maximize your savings, consider the following tips. Find tickets on reseller websites. Buying tickets from a scalper could save you money, but it also opens you up to the possibility of getting scammed. Instead, you could look for secondhand tickets on legitimate reseller websites that verify authenticity and guarantee your purchase. Connect with a season ticket holder. Try to connect with a season ticket holder who can’t make a game and offer to buy their tickets. Even if they’re going to the game, a season ticket holder might be able to get you a good deal. For instance, Major League Soccer season ticket members

can sometimes get a discount on additional tickets. Check for an employee discount. Some companies offer their employees discounted tickets to sporting events as a benefit. Government employees and current military members or veterans may also be eligible. However, sometimes you can only choose from a limited list of games. Join the fan club. Becoming a member of a team’s official fan club can cost $20 to $40 a year and could more than pay for itself with discounts on tickets or gear and access to special events. Go during the preseason. Preseason tickets can be especially cheap. In 2016, you could buy preseason NFL tickets for less than $10. You may not get to see your favorite players on the field, but it you could still save money while spending quality time with your children or friends. Try the minor league. A minor league game can be a fun alternative to a major league game. Some of the teams have an enthusiastic and loyal fan base, and the stadiums are often smaller, which lets you get closer to the action. The extras, like parking and snacks, are often cheaper as well. Timing your purchase can also be important. If you suspect a game will sell out, it may be better to buy early than risk having to pay above face value on a reseller site. With less

popular games, ticket prices tend to drop as game day approaches. Compare transportation options. Public transportation isn’t a guaranteed money saver if you’re going with a large group. Carpooling or splitting the cost of a ride from a car-sharing app could be cheaper. If you’re driving, look for off-premises parking lots. You may need to walk a bit, but you’ll also be able to save money and might avoid some of the postgame traffic. Eat before and bring snacks. Everyone knows stadium food is expensive and filling up on a big meal before the game can help you avoid cravings. Unbeknownst to some fans, stadiums might let you bring in outside food. However, there’s often a strict bag policy, which could limit the size of your bag and may require bags to be transparent. Check the stadium’s policy closely and call the team’s office if you need clarification. The bottom line is a sporting event can be a wonderful way to build memories and spend a day with your friends or family. However, the expenses from a single game can quickly stack up if you’re not careful. Luckily, there are many ways to save money on tickets, transportation and food and still have a memorable experience. Nathaniel Sillin directs Visa’s financial education programs.

ROCK ISLAND, Ill. – Jordyn Strange, a standout athlete from Temescal Canyon High School in Lake Elsinore, has announced her plans to continue her education and basketball career at Augustana. She will enroll in the fall and become a member of Coach Mark Beinborn’s Viking program. A 5-foot, 11-inch guard, Strange was a four-year basketball letter winner at Temescal Valley, where she played for her mother, Cari Strange. She served as a team caption during her junior and senior seasons, as the Titans went 22-6 overall and 8-2 in the Sunbelt League each year. Strange was a second team AllSunbelt selection in 2015-16. She won Temescal Valley’s Defensive Player of the Year award this year and it’s Titan Award as a sophomore. Strange also lettered twice each for coaches Terri Edwards and Jim McMahon in volleyball and track

New So-Cal team taking semi-pro football by storm with motivational approach SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Last weekend, the Southern California Warriors, semi-pro adult football team began their preseason by reaching out to their little brothers; Murrieta Youth Football League, to help the league provide and fit football gear for the rostered youth for their upcoming season. Paired with Dick’s Sporting Goods they were able to make this a very successful event. However, it turned out to be much more than that of an equipment fitting. The Southern California Warriors players were seen actually mentoring these children, giving them pep talks and advice for on the field and how to keep themselves safe on the field. It was quite a beautiful sight to see as some of the big Warrior players were pumping up the young men and helping to motivate them in their football game and in life. This is Southern California Warriors’ first year under the name. Warriors are part of the Pacific Coast Football Conference (PCFC) league. The team is derived from several players of former teams who believed in their well-known and trusted Coach, Marco Flores and fellow teammate Okalani Taufahema, who aspired to start a new team this year after watching several divisional teams fold last season due to inner politics and turmoil. This vision of the Warriors came about when Flores and Taufahema felt the need to show their players they believed in them and that the team can be successful through the power of belief in one another. By the grace of God upon opening practice day, the turnout of new and old were bountiful, thus beginning the start of something new. “For the players, by the players” is a motto commonly thrown around the field. Owners and coaches are accompanied by a full board of directors and field staff, who all share a prevalent goal for the team. The upcoming events for the Warriors include workshops focusing on motivating Children

In addition, the Warriors will be working with underprivileged youth to help them train and maintain a fit lifestyle even though financial burdening times may hold them and their families back. Recently the Southern California Warriors received a dose of their own mentoring by a special guest, world renowned Motivational Speaker and Author, Coach V, at their practice at Los Alamos Sports Park in Murrieta at 7:45 p.m. Coach V grew up in Pomona, attended a local junior college and received a scholarship to UC Davis. Coach V coached for Azusa Pacific and Boise State, thereafter becoming a recruiter for Boise State. Coach V has won 12 championship rings in his career and has since authored a book called “Life Champion,” became a world renown motivational speaker and is president of a nonprofit called INVICTUS, helping underprivileged children in low income neighborhoods (www. coach-v.com). Southern California Warriors will benefit from this special event by being able to use what they will learn toward their future endeavors in the game as well as in their mentorships.

Great Oak Assistant Principal Judy Stapleton began her career as the school district did and has now retired from Temecula Valley Unified School District with the closure of the 2016-2017 school year, completing 30 years of service and a citywide campaign against bullying. With only two schools open in

rural Temecula, Stapleton played a pivotal role in 1987. She worked at both Vail Elementary and Temecula Middle School, eventually working full time at the middle school as a music teacher. “I think two years before I started, students were riding horses to middle school,” Stapleton said. As plans were made to open Great Oak High School in 2004, she was working on her administrative credentials and applied

for a position. She was hired as an assistant principal. She and the other original staff were given the opportunity to create the traditions and foundation of the new school. With her focus on discipline at the high school level, many students came to her about bullying, Stapleton said. She was inspired to create a program that would combat bullying. “Funny how things happen,

I was flipping through a course catalog, and there was a little ceramic wall plaque. The message was really simple, and I got a little sad that there was an entire market reminding people that being nice matters,” Stapleton explained. After speaking to Michael Hubbard, the director of Child Welfare and Attendance, the two administrators began planning a weeklong program against bullying called “Because Nice Matters,” similar in set up to Red Ribbon Week, the week that campaigns against drug use. Stapleton piloted the program at Great Oak, working with the Wolfpack Student Body adviser Don Skaggs and Peer Leaders Adviser Lisa Balka to create activities with the students. The team designated the colors black and purple for the week to symbolize the internal bruising and impact from bullying. One student came up with a spirit day for the last day of the week for students to wear all white representing making a clean start. Stapleton went to Superintendent Tom Ritter with the plan two years later to present the program district wide. At that time, the director of Transportation, Jason Osborne, came up with the concept of the “Because Nice Matters” bus. The bus rotates through the three Temecula high school art departments to be decorated for each new year. Elementary and middle school principals would schedule a bus visit and plan activities around it. Osborne reported lots of positive

feedback from the community. With the community success, the city approached the district about incorporating “Because Nice Matter” into the city program: Temecula Has Heart. A member of the community Pete Giummo of Tri-Lakes Sportswear printed out shirts for all the student government emissaries, teachers in the district and the city council out of his own pocket, Stapleton said. Eventually, the city contributed to creating a large marquee on the freeway to emphasize Nice Matters with purples and blues. The program’s success is attributed to the groups throughout the community that have taken part. The “Because Nice Matters” rally highlights feeder schools by bringing them to Great Oak with a paper chain made of nice deeds students have done for each other. The students parade with the chain and hear speeches from various high school students and partake in carnival games. “I’m leaving behind a lot of people who are highly committed,” Stapleton said. “We’ll never get rid of bullying, but we can make them more mindful and realize that there are people there to help them. This is not something they have to shoulder on their own.” Her idea is now embedded into the community and is an integral part of the school culture. In her time at the district, Judy Stapleton has taken individual teachers, advisors and city leaders and made them a team.

Birthday fun for patients at Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital celebrating Luke the Lion Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital patient Felix Rodriguez, 3, of San Bernardino gets a little help from Luke the Lion with his crafts during the furry mascot’s birthday bash in the hospital lobby, June 19.

LOMA LINDA – The Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital lobby was filled with birthday fun as the honorable mascot Luke the Lion celebrated another birthday. The Big Hearts for Little Hearts Loma Linda Guild treated patients and their families to an afternoon of crafts, entertainment and even birthday cake, June 19. Guild member and longtime friend of the hospital Carol Troesh has been dedicated to the annual event since its inception seven years ago. “The entire month of June is Luke’s birthday month,” Troesh said. “This is truly a special event where kids can get out of their hospital room and forget for a minute about their treatment.” Sticking with the traditional

1950s theme for the party this year, youth singing group Lioness performed doo-wop style songs in poodle skirts and ponytails. In honor of his birthday, Luke the Lion gave gifts to patients; each child in attendance got a stuffed lion and a book of their choosing to take home. The Loma Linda Guild is committed to supporting the children hospitalized at LLUCH by developing programs and projects that address the critical needs of these children and their families. The Loma Linda Guild was the first and original chapter of Big Hearts for Little Hearts that formed in 1999. Since its inception, the Guild has raised over $1.6 million for the hospital.

Study finds DTP vaccine increases mortality in young infants 5 to tenfold compared to unvaccinated infants age five months. In the primary analysis, DTPvaccinated infants experienced mortalities five times greater than DTP-unvaccinated infants. Mortalities to vaccinated girls were 9.98 times those among females in the unvaccinated control group, while mortalities to vaccinated boys were 3.93 times the controls. Oddly, the scientists found that children receiving the oral polio vaccine simultaneously with DTP fared much better than children who did not. The OPV vaccine appeared to modify the negative effect of the DTP vaccine, reducing mortalities to 3.52 times those experienced among the control group. Overall, mortalities among vaccinated children were 10 times the control group when children received only the DTP. Mogensen and his colleagues hypothesize that the DTP vaccine might weaken a child’s immune system against non-target infections. They conclude, “Though protective against the target disease, DTP may increase susceptibility to unrelated infections. DTP was associated with five-fold higher mortality than being unvaccinated. No prospective study has shown beneficial survival effects of DTP.” The Mogensen study supports the conclusions of previous investigations into child survival following vaccination. An earlier study in 2004 by Dr. Peter Aaby of the introduction of DTP in rural Guinea-Bissau indicated a twofold higher mortality among vaccinated children. The Aaby report is one of several early studies that documented vaccination status and followed children prospectively. All of them indicated that DTP-vaccinated children died at rates far exceeding mortality amongst the control group. A metaanalysis in 2016 of all eight known studies found a twofold higher mortality for DTP-vaccinated compared to DTP-unvaccinated. In 2014, the WHO’s Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization conducted its own literature review of the potential nonspecific effects of several vaccines, including DTP, and found that the majority of studies reported a detrimental effect of DTP due to its penchant for increasing susceptibility to unrelated

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

For many years, public health advocates have vainly urged the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization to conduct studies comparing vaccinated versus unvaccinated populations to measure overall health outcomes. Now a team of Scandinavian scientists has conducted such a study, and the results are alarming. That study, funded in part by the Danish government and lead by Dr. Soren Wengel Mogensen, was published in January in EBioMedicine. Mogensen and his team of scientists found that African children inoculated with the DTP vaccine, an immunization for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis, during the early 1980s had a 5-10 times greater mortality rate than their unvaccinated peers. The data suggest that while the vaccine protects against infection from those three bacteria, it makes children more susceptible to dying from other causes. The scientists’ term the study a “natural experiment” since a birthday-based vaccination system employed for the Bandim Health Project in Guinea Bissau, West Africa had the effect of creating a vaccinated cohort and a similarly situated unvaccinated control group. In the time period covered by this study, Guinea-Bissau had 50 percent child mortality rates for children up to age 5. Starting in 1978, Bandim Health Project health care workers contacted pregnant mothers and encouraged them to visit infant weighing sessions provided by a team every three months after their child’s birth. Beginning in 1981, they offered vaccinations at the weighing sessions. Since the DPT vaccine and OPV or oral polio immunizations were offered only to children who were at least three months of age at the weighing sessions, the children’s random birthdays allowed for analysis of deaths between three and five months of age depending on vaccination status. So, for example, a child born Jan. 1 and weighed April 1 would be vaccinated, but a child born Feb. 1 would not be vaccinated until their following visit July 1 at

infections. SAGE recommended further research. Moreover, Mogensen and his colleagues observe that the studies reviewed by SAGE probably underestimated the lethal effect of the DTP vaccine because of unusually high mortality in the control groups. “Unvaccinated children in these studies have usually been frail children too sick or malnourished to get vaccinated, and the studies may therefore have underestimated the negative effect of DTP,” Mogensen said. The Mogensen study sought to avoid this pitfall by using controls selected by birthday and by eliminating underweight children and orphans from both the study group and the control group. It included only children who were breastfed. All the infants were healthy at the time of vaccination. Nevertheless, the Mogensen authors point out that, even in their study, the unvaccinated children had slightly worse nutritional status and traveled more – biases that would tend to increase mortality. They conclude that, “The estimate from the natural experiment may therefore still be conservative.” The significance of the Mogensen study findings is underscored by the observation that, “Unfortunately, DTP is the most widely used vaccine, and the proportion who receives DTP3 is used globally as an indicator of the performance of national vaccination programs.” The authors closed with a bracing rebuke to public health regulators. “It should be of concern that the

effect of routine vaccinations on all-cause mortality was not tested in randomized trials. All currently available evidence suggests that DTP vaccine may kill more children from other causes than it saves from diphtheria, tetanus or pertussis. Though a vaccine protects children against the target disease, it may simultaneously increase susceptibility to unrelated infections,” Mogensen said. Those words should serve as a cold water wake-up call to the WHO, the CDC and other public health officials. The public in both poor and rich countries has a right to scientifically-based evidence that international vaccine programs are as safe as possible and that they have been thoroughly safety-tested. The best metrics for measuring safety are studies comparing health outcomes of vaccinated versus unvaccinated cohorts. Yet, both the CDC and the WHO have aggressively discouraged the pursuit of such studies. Finally, it’s important to note that the DTP vaccine used in GuineaBissau in the early 1980s almost certainly contained high concentrations of both mercury and aluminum. Vaccine makers first created the combined diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis vaccine in the 1940s, mixing in an aluminum adjuvant and a mercury preservative, thimerosal, from its inception. At that time, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended DTP for mass use in children. Before 1990, DTP was the only thimerosal-containing vaccine recommended for infants.

Five manufacturers supplied UNICEF with the DTP vaccines used in West Africa in the late 1970s and early 1980s. One of these, Biken of Japan, described the industry standard in its 1987 lab report: “Outline of Method of Manufacture—The preparation [of DTP] also contains thimerosal as a preservative.” By the early 1980s, a cascade of lawsuits filed across the United States on behalf of vaccine-injured children were driving DTP manufacturers from the market and threatening to shut down production of the DTP shot and other vaccines. That threat led the U.S. Congress to bestow legal immunity on vaccine makers via the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Program in 1986, followed in December 1987 by the rollout of the “vaccine court.” Following the recommendation by the Institute of Medicine, vaccine makers removed thimerosal from the American DTaP between 2001 and 2003. However, multi-dose DTP vaccines given to tens of millions of children across the African continent continue to contain massive doses of thimerosal, 25 micrograms of ethyl mercury per injection that exceed the Environmental Protection Agency’s maximum exposure levels by many times. Neither the CDC nor the WHO has ever published a vaccinated versus unvaccinated study that would be necessary to determine the overall health impacts of this potent toxin on African children. The Mogensen report is a loud call for such a study.

Loma Linda University Medical Center – Murrieta opens five new emergency department treatment rooms MURRIETA – Loma Linda University Medical Center – Murrieta unveiled five new treatment rooms – also known as “flex care spaces” – in its emergency department Monday, June 19, a move that will help meet growing demand for emergency services at the hospital. The Emergency Department currently provides care to more than 130 patients per day, or more than 45,000 patients per year. With the five new treatment areas, the department now has 23 beds. Two more are expected to be added in the next few months. Jared Horricks, executive director of facilities management, said the hospital has experienced significant year-over-year increases in Emergency Department visits since the hospital’s opening in 2011. In response to the community’s need for local health care services, the medical center added the five new treatment areas, along with other emergency medicine service enhancements. “This five-bed addition is expected to make a major impact on the hospital’s ability to provide timely patient access to medical providers,” Horricks told a gathering at a ribbon-cutting ceremony, June 19. “Loma Linda University Medical Center – Murrieta remains committed to providing the best emergency

iServe veteran John McDade to head up iServe Residential Lending’s Temecula loan center TEMECULA – Ken Michael, Co-CEO of San Diego-based national mortgage lender iServe Residential Lending, announced the appointment of nationallyrecognized Veterans Affairs lending specialist and veteran mortgage originator John McDade to head up the company’s Temecula loan center, 43920 Margarita Road, Suite A, in Temecula. “This is an important day in our development and strengthens our

commitment and focus in the Temecula marketplace and nationwide in VA lending,” Michael said. McDade, a veteran himself, is well-respected within governmental circles as a leader and authority on VA home lending. He has originated over 5,000 VA home loans throughout a forty-year career. Additionally, McDade has garnered national attention for iServe branches across America with his “Power of VA Lending” national

tour, which has reached several hundred realtors and veterans in cities and communities throughout America. McDade has previously been based out of iServe’s San Diego hub office. “I’m humbled and grateful for this great opportunity at this moment in time,” McDade said. “The Temecula market is growing for us. I look forward to continuing my support for all our branches, continuing to help their VA business

prosper and grow, while dedicating myself to the growth of the exciting Temecula area as well.” The Temecula office of iServe is especially suited for both resident consumer and veteran home lending audiences. Its growing market presence and its proximity to many of California’s military bases and veteran communities made McDade the ideal choice to make the move. “John is the ideal choice for Tem-

Reduce stress and anxiety in your financial life Al Zdenek SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Trading in your morning coffee run to Starbucks for the pot of coffee in the office is never fun, but when finances get tight that drive-thru stop might be one of the first things to go. But do you really need to give up the little things in life that make you happy? I don’t think so. It’s important to be able to hang onto those things you enjoy, and you should be able to, just as long as you continue to make smart decisions on bigger issues that affect your future wealth. There is a lot of financial stress and anxiety in the country. If you can eliminate financial stress from your life, your anxiety levels will go down. Here are some of the things I recommend to accomplish that goal. First, know what you need. The unknown is the biggest stress driver. There is a cash flow per month that would allow you to live the way you want now and in the future. This number is something you should know. Fix any broken cash flows. Unfortunately, we have all made poor financial choices, some of which have been more costly than others. There is no need to continue on this path. There are ways to find solutions in everyday decisions that will allow

you to start your cash flow going in the right direction. Use debt smarter. Many types of debt can be good; such as real estate, investments and investing in your business. Make your debt decisions like a well-run company and create wealth. Make sure you have a road map. Having a good financial plan is like having a good map and researching your trip ahead of time. You can wing your financial plan, but if you want to work less in life and get to your destination sooner, your life will be less stressful if you have a plan. Don’t let your decisions come back to haunt you. The bad decisions you make could come back to haunt you decades down the road. Learn how to avoid costly decisions and always make the correct financial choices, 100 percent of the time. Work when you want. People like to know when they don’t have to work anymore. A good adviser can set you up with a plan that will give you this option well before you reach retirement age. By consistently making the best financial decisions, people can find more cash flow to spend or save. That way they may achieve financial independence sooner, work less in life and have less anxiety and stress in their financial lives.

ecula,” Allen Friedman, western region manager for iServe, said. “In addition to assuming branch manager’s duties, he will continue to support all our nationwide branches in VA lending; he will leverage a book of business developed over 40 years in all facets of the mortgage business toward the continued growth of the Temecula market.” John McDade can be reached directly at (619) 788-4153 or jmcdade@iservelending.com.

Cruz wins first in category, donated award for bead dream catcher Joe Naiman JNAIMAN@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Crystal Cruz entered a bead dream catcher in the San Diego County Fair’s Decorative Arts and Crafts competition, and the Winchester resident not only won first place in the “Other Than Listed” class of the Beading division but also received a donated award from the San Diego Bead Society. “That was really nice,” Cruz said. Her winning dream catcher hoop is 19 inches in diameter and includes in the design rose quartz, cherry quartz, rhodochrosite, buffalo horn, Japanese glass beads, Chinese crystals and emu feathers. No plastic was used in the dream catcher. Cruz made the dream catcher in April, taking only seven hours to complete the project. “I’m really fast at making them,” she said. Cruz said she once spent approximately 12 hours making each one, but has improved her speed over time. “I’ve got it down now to seven,” she said. Cruz taught herself the art of making dream catchers approximately 25 years ago. “Nobody taught me how to do it. It’s my own spin on it,” she said. Cruz is part Choctaw but does not have Kumeyaay, Luiseno or Cupa ancestry. She participates in the pow-wows of the Southern California tribes. “It’s helped people heal, and it’s helped me heal,” Cruz said of dream catchers. “It has been like a gift from the people.” Cruz was raised in Escondido and San Marcos and moved from

New summer DVAC Music at the Center programs in Hemet announced Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The best local art, exciting and moving musical presentations and opportunity for youth to expand their artistic talents are offered at the Diamond Valley Art Center in historic downtown Hemet this summer. The summer programs at the DVAC are well underway with the special Jeff Tower Alumni/Friend Jamm and benefit Thursday, July 13, being presented to help the Tower family who lost their renowned musician and retired Hemet High School Band and Orchestra leader July 4 following a short illness. The family was to receive all the proceeds from the special event to help them with Towers final medical expenses and funeral arrangements. The Craig Yancy Band will be performing live for the DVAC Wine, Art & Jazz event Saturday, July 15, at 7 p.m. on the center stage at 123 N. Harvard St. in downtown Hemet. For more than 30 years Yancey

has worked as professional musician and educator much like Jeff Tower. After a period of tutelage with Grant Wolf, Yancy continue his studies at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas where he received both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees. Yancy’s credits as a woodwind musician include 27 years of playing music in Las Vegas where he played in all the major showrooms, lounges, Broadway productions, clubs, studios and multiple concerts. He has performed with many artists including Joe Williams, Donna Summer, Wayne Newton, The Four Tops, the Temptations, Kenny Rogers, Mariena Shaw, Clint Holmes and many others. A local favorite, Sandii Castleberry and Hot Flash, are set to perform on the DVAC stage Aug. 5 who specializes in Bluegrass and modern folk music always with a little bit of American music history tied in for both old and young to enjoy. Hot Flash members are three female musicians over the age of 50 with a sense of

humor, as their band name insinuates. Sandii Castleberry (guitar), Kathleen Johnson (Autoharp and vocals) and Anne Finch (bass and vocals) have been making and playing music in Idyllwild since 2012, and long before that in many different groups. Joining in for many of the performances is Anne’s husband renowned jazz pianist Barnaby Finch, who contributions give the band an extra flair. Sometime Don Reed from Idyllwild also joins in on the mandolin and dobro, along with banjoist Gordon Acri. The audience never knows what a music delight they may find with the group. Sometimes even the audience gets to pick up a historic music instrument and play along.. just for fun. Two weeks later Aug. 19 at 7 p.m. the stage will spotlight the Super 300 Blues Band. Super 300 consist of Brad Radis on harp and vocals, Jerry (Short Dog) Feldman on guitar, Allan Hearn on bass and Jim Snodgrass on drums. The group performs dynamic arrangements of Chicago

and traditional blues, as well as their own high energy boogie and swing-inspired original material. The Super 300 band shows the influence of B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Albert Collins, Junior Wells, Sonny Boy Williamson and Magic Sam. Admission for the DVAC’s music stage shows is $20 for DVAC members and $25 for nonmembers. General Admission tickets include two beverages. Student tickets are $10 for presale and $15 at the door. Guest may receive two glasses of wine or other beverage. During concert breaks patrons may enjoy browsing through the adjoining Diamond Valley Arts Center Gallery where the fine works of talented local artist are on display. Running through July 31 is the David Jesse McChesney “Wild Desert” Exhibition. His photos are as breathtaking as actually being at the desert locations where they have been taken. Another guest artists works will be announced and presented in August. There is an opportunity for

fourth through eighth grade beginning the week of July 17 to attend the DVAC Summer Drama Workshop that will be held daily from 9 a.m. to noon. More details and registration information is available on the DVAC website or dvacinfo@gmail.com. Call (951) 652-3822 for ticket information. The DVAC board says each year we reach out for donations to fund scholarships which will allow more students to participate. A general “Donate” button is available on the website. Donors are asked to designate where the donation should be applied. The DVAC says there is still time interested high school and college age youth to enter their art into the second Annual Art for Youth Competition. Entrants are asked to bring an “Intent of Participate” form to the Arts Center at 123 Harvard St. by the end of August. The form must be for each piece to be entered. The forms are available at the center or at www. thedvac.org or by email request to youthartcompetition@gmail.com.

Dining in the Valley I eat bugs

Venders at the local markets in Oaxaca, Mexico, sell chapulines and other roasted insects by the bag full.

Next on her tasting tour, Chef Rosie O’Conner tries a tamarindo chapuline sorbet in a local ice cream shop in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Rosie’s Kitchen Chef Rosie O’Conner SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

I eat bugs! There I said it. They say it’s the first step to admitting you have a problem. I am a chef after all, and I have a responsibility to try everything that is put in front of me. I’ve made two trips to Mexico determined to find these delicacies, and I was compelled to bring them back to share this experience with you. In the past, insects were the main food component and diet of Mexico before Spanish conquest. Insect consumption goes back to prehistoric times when Mexico didn’t have cows, chicken or pork as a form of protein. Bugs were a great alternative. Mexico, like any country, lives and feeds off the land. In the United States, we

eat possum in the south, alligator in Florida and in France, they eat escargot which are snails. We learn to survive with what we have. So we tried the three most popular types when on our trips to Oaxaca and Mexico City. Gusanos are butterfly worms found in the Maguey plant which is used to make tequila and mezcal. When we arrived, I saw this worm was at the bottom of a tequila bottle, encouraging me to reembrace my party days in Tijuana where we earned our t-shirts that said, “I ate the worm.” After a few shots of smoky mezcal in Oaxaca, the vendors were kind enough to roast and serve them with peanuts. Somehow, once we were tipsy, I realized I no longer had an issue eating them. Almost like drinking to the point

where you get goggle eyes. I was expecting them to be gummy, but they were toasty and salty. They reminded me a crispy french fries. Chapulines are grasshoppers, another popular insect delicacy found everywhere in Mexico. The streets were saturated with vendors that sold them. Grasshoppers are high in protein, nearly as much as salmon and with absolutely no fat. They are filled with nutrition and are the staple of Oaxaca. The streets were filled with huge sacs of roasted grasshoppers coming in many different flavors. I chose

the salted garlic flavor. I won’t lie; I had a difficult time working up the courage to eat it because they look just like the grasshoppers we find dead in our backyard. However, I didn’t want to offend the 85-year old woman whose sole purpose is to sell these at the mercado, so I quickly placed it in my mouth. I can honestly say the flavor was like a sun-dried tomato. On our way back to our hotel, we got caught in a storm, and found refuge in an ice cream parlor. The owner let us try a tamarindo chapuline sorbet, and it was surprisingly amazing. When we served them back home at the restaurant for our Oaxaca tequila dinner, they were such a big hit that no one took pictures of the rest of the food I prepared. The buzz was all about the grasshoppers. The last bug we tried were hormigas chicatanas, the reddish brown flying ants with huge wings that only come out during the rainy summer season of Oaxaca. We stopped to put gas in the van, and I was caught by surprise. They were

so many flying ants that I felt I was trapped in a scene from the book of Exodus. “Those are chicatanas” the tour guide explained. It almost seemed like they came to bid me farewell. We were not able to eat them that day, so I made sure we scheduled a trip to Mexico City just to try them. We finally had the chance to try chicatanas at the restaurant Pujol in Mexico City. Chef Enrique Olvera roasted the ants, making a sauce using a molcajete, which is a stone mortal and pestle, and mixing the paste with mayonnaise. He served it with baby roasted corn in a hollowed squash vessel filled with smoke. The sauce was delicious and tasted smoky with a charred flavor. The baby corn added a nice sweet finish to the bite. So, there you have it. I have tried three insects from Mexico. I eat bugs! When in Mexico, get a little adventurous and try them. Send me a picture or comment to Chef Rosie O’Connor on Facebook or Instagram @chefrosie. I will love hear from you.

Gusanos or butterfly worms are used in the making of tequila and mescal. Ground gusanos mixed with salt is an accompaniment to margaritas.

Dining in the Valley

Use summer produce for perfectly grilled vegetables TEMECULA – One of the highlights of the summer season is the incredible bounty of fresh produce, and grilling these vegetables gives them a smoky, delicious dimension. Chef Naz Cavallaro, a grilling expert known as Barbecue Naz from Broil King, shares some simple tips for flavor perfection. When preparing vegetables, slice them to expose as much of the vegetable to the grill surface as you can. Coat vegetables with olive oil before placing them on the grill. This precaution will help prevent them from sticking to the grill. Use the right tool for the job. Accessories like grill toppers and skewers are perfect for keeping smaller foods like cherry tomatoes and onions from rolling around or falling through the grate. Don’t leave vegetables unattended. Vegetables are delicate and can easily overcook if not monitored. Grill any extras. Leftover grilled vegetables are great in soups, salads, sandwiches and on pizzas and pasta. When grilling vegetables, consider these popular recipes. Grilled Zucchini Rolls Ingredients: 3 medium zucchinis, sliced 1/4inch thick, lengthwise 1 tablespoon olive oil 4 ounces chevre (soft goat cheese), at room temperature Pinch of freshly ground black pepper Pinch of kosher salt 2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes, oil-packed and minced 1 teaspoon oil from the sun-dried tomatoes 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, minced 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, freshly grated Directions: Preheat the grill on medium. Brush both sides of sliced zucchini with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place on the grill and cook for 4 minutes per side. When cooked, set on a wire rack to cool. In a small bowl, combine the chevre, salt, pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, oil and thyme. Using a small spatula, spread the cheese mixture thinly over one side of the zucchini. Lightly roll the zucchini and place seam side down on a small, parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Place baking sheet on top rack of the grill for 15 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve. Grilled Vegetable Stacks The key to nice presentation with this dish is using vegetables of approximately the same diameter. To make them really tidy and perfect, use a round cookie cutter to cut the vegetable and mozzarella slices to a uniform size and shape. Makes 8 stacks. Ingredients: 1/2 cup olive oil

Grilled zucchini rolls are a great grilling recipe using vegetables from a summer garden.

4 whole red peppers 2 medium eggplant, cut in 16 slices (1/3” thick)* 2 large zucchini, cut in 16 slices (1/4” thick) crosswise 3 medium tomatoes, cut in 8 slices (1/3” thick) 4 small red onions, cut in 16 slices (1/3” thick) 1 cup ricotta cheese salt and pepper, to taste 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped 8 thick slices mozzarella cheese 8 long sprigs fresh rosemary Directions: Preparing the vegetables and filling: Preheat barbecue on med/high and place whole red peppers directly on the grill, charring the skin on all sides. Let cool, then peel off skins, remove seeds and ribs, and lay flat on a cutting board. Using a cookie cutter roughly the diameter of the

temperature before proceeding with the recipe. Assembly: Stir together the ricotta cheese, thyme, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Place one slice of eggplant on a lightly oiled baking sheet or foil pan. Spread a spoonful of the ricotta mixture over the eggplant. Stack with red pepper, zucchini, onion, mozzarella, tomato, another zucchini and another onion. Spread another spoonful of ricotta over the onion and top with another slice of eggplant. Repeat this procedure with the remaining vegetables to make 7 more stacks. Insert a wooden skewer through the center of each stack and return the vegetables to the barbecue on the baking sheet. Heat for about 10 minutes on low or until the cheese is melted and the vegetables are warmed through. Remove the bottom leaves from each rosemary sprig, leaving one

Freeze the scraps of red pepper to add to soups, pasta sauces, salads, etc. Brush the remaining prepared vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Reduce flame to LOW and grill the vegetables slowly, until tender, turning once. Transfer the vegetables to a tray, arranging them in a single layer to cool, and cover tightly with plastic wrap. The vegetables may be grilled one day in advance, and refrigerated after cooling. Bring them back to room

Pull out the skewers and insert one prepared rosemary sprig into the centre of each stack. *Before cooking, place sliced eggplant on a layer of paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Cover with another layer of paper towels and let sit for 20–30 minutes. This removes the bitterness from the eggplant.

Colin Hay, former frontman for the popular 80s band Men at Work will perform at Wiens Family Cellars in Temecula Valley Wine Country July 28. Courtesy photos

Gloria Magallanes GMAGALLANES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Colin Hay will be headlining at Wiens Family Cellars in Temecula Friday, July 28, as part of the Wiens Family Cellars – Summer Concert Series. Colin Hay is an experienced Scottish musician with over 30 years in the business. Hay’s career started in 1978 when he met his former bandmate Ron Strykert and formed the band “Men at Work.” The group went on to have great success for many years releasing their debut album in 1981 titled “Business as Usual.” Despite their success, the band broke up in 1985 and Hay launched a solo career. In the following years Hay recorded new music, toured, made appearances in television shows and formed his own recording label. Hay’s music has also been featured on the TV series “Scrubs” and frequently used by actor/director Zach Braff. Two years ago, in 2015, Hay’s documentary film titled “Colin Hay: Waiting for my Real Life” made its debut at the Melbourne International Film Festival. The

documentary follows Colin’s story and journey in the music world, his rise to fame, his fall and his slow climb back to resonance. The documentary also includes intimate footage and interviews from family, friends, celebrity admirers and his 2013 world tour. The year of 2016 was Colin Hay’s breakout year filled with tours and performances, including performances on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” and “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Earlier this year Hay released his 13th solo album “Fierce Mercy” which many consider to be his finest solo album to date. The album is filled with themes of love, loss and mortality combined with his impassioned and pensive lyrics. Hay will be performing songs from this recent album at the Summer Concert at Wiens Family Cellars. Colin Hay’s concert is one you do not want to miss. Hay is known to put on a great show and has great stage presence that intoxicates his audience. The concert will be taking place on the winery’s Mountain View Amphitheater which is known to look whimsical with its rustic arbor and

stunning backdrop. Tickets for the concert start at $55 per person with doors opening at 6 p.m. VIP tickets are also available for those who wish get the most out of the concert experience. VIP extras include a VIP menu with a private wine bar, reserved section, access to VIP area and additional entertainment in the VIP area. Guests are asked to refrain from bringing outside food, drinks, ice chests, chairs and professional cameras. For those who wish to be a part of this unforgettable concert experience, tickets may be purchased on the Wiens Family Cellars website. Wiens Family Cellars is a beautiful winery located on Rancho California Road, 7 miles East of the 15 in Temecula. Known for its quality red wines, “Big Reds,” Wine Family Cellars has a lot to offer with tours, picnics and an exquisite tasting room that offers an ultimate wine experience. The winery has numerous facilities for events such as weddings and concerts including an outside patio, event pavilion, vineyard view and amphitheater. Wiens Family Cellars was started by Doug Wien and his brothers in 2001. Eventually the Wein brothers decided to move their vineyards, production and tasting room from Sacramento to Temecula in 2003. Their current facility was designed by the eldest Wiens brother George with construction starting in 2005. The winery was completed and opened to the public on Oct. 14, 2006, and is now known as the place to visit for quality Temecula red wine. Wiens Family Cellars is a family business dedicated to creating a “place where people feel right at home – part of our family.” Since its establishment, the winery has flourished and is one of the most beautiful wineries in the area serving delicious quality wine in a familial environment. Wiens Family Cellars, with its beautiful location and views, is worth the visit.

REAL ESTATE / HOME & GARDEN

Fast-growing vegetables for the impatient gardener TEMECULA – Stepping outdoors and picking a freshly grown vegetable is a joy for many homeowners who like to garden. Growing vegetables at home offers many benefits. In addition to providing a worthwhile hobby that can increase your physical activity, having control over your own produce can reduce exposure to a number of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. This translates into foods that are healthier for the body and the environment. Gardens also can help the average person save money on often costly produce, all the while reducing gardeners’ carbon footprints.

Waiting to reap the rewards of a harvest can try the patience of those accustomed to satisfying their needs on a moment’s notice. This is especially true for young gardeners who have grown up in a society that increasingly provides immediate gratification. While tomatoes, peppers and watermelons require long growing seasons, many other fruits and vegetables grow much faster. This offers plenty of bounty in a short time for those who may have gotten a later start on their gardens or simply don’t have the patience to wait on the more time-consuming growers.

Leafy greens can be fast-growing additions to a home vegetable garden.

Radishes

Some people call arugula “rocket” because of just how quickly it grows. The green has been growing in popularity as a salad starter or vegetable side dish. Simply cut the leaves when they are large enough and as needed for recipes. Other fast-growing greens include kale, chard mustard greens and watercress.

Radishes are typically ready for harvest about one month after planting, making them among the fastestgrowing vegetables around.

Snap beans Beans can be steamed, added to salads or eaten raw with dips. They’re often a summer staple. Some of the fastest producers are ready to harvest in about 50 days.

Turnips

Squash

Both the roots and the leaves of turnips can be eaten, and this old-fashioned vegetable makes a great addition to soups and stews. Because the plants tend to be tolerant across many gardening zones, they’re handy and easy-to-grow even as the weather cools.

Don’t mistake the squash in the garden for cucumber. Both look similar but green squash, or zucchini, can be much more versatile. Zucchini can be grilled, baked, sauteed, stuffed, fried and even turned into noodles.

Scallions

To add fresh flavor to foods, scallions grow much more quickly than it takes onion bulbs to mature. Speak with a garden center expert to learn more about which vegetables, fruits and herbs grow quickly and will thrive in your home garden.

Did you know? TEMECULA – According to the U.S. Department of Energy, well-designed landscapes can save homeowners enough energy to make the projects pay for themselves in less than eight years. The DOE notes that homeowners’ landscaping strategies should be dictated by the climates in which they live. For example, homeowners who live in hot, arid regions should employ landscapes to shade their homes’ walls, windows and roof, while those who live in cool regions should make sure their landscapes are not blocking the winter sun from reaching their homes’ southfacing windows. The DOE also advises that shading is the most cost-effective way to reduce solar heat gain in a home, noting that well-planned landscapes can reduce previously unshaded homes’ air conditioning costs by as much as 50 percent. The DOE also notes that, in tree-shaded neighborhoods, sum-

mer daytime air temperature can be up to 6 degrees cooler than the air temperature in treeless areas. Homeowners considering adding trees to their landscapes should know that deciduous trees shed their leaves annually, which means they will block solar heat in the summer but allow sunlight into the

home in winter. That’s ideal for homeowners who live in regions where temperatures climb in summertime but drop considerably in winter. Homeowners who want year-round shade might consider evergreen trees and shrubs.

How I care for hot summer roses

erperlstrom / Thinkstock photo

Frank Brines, master consulting rosarian SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

As unpredictable as the weather has been lately, one thing residents in Southern California can plan for historically is periods of intense heat in the coming months. There have been some samplings of this intense heat in recent weeks, temps in 90s-100s in June. As summer brings drier, hotter temps, roses will struggle to maintain hydration. It seems to me there has been more wind adding to the problem as well. I’ve noticed that my vegetable garden dries out quickly, requiring added water. It is not easy to mulch vegetables. For the past five years I have advocated a conservative style of summer rose care. From July to September, rose garden activities in the desert – that’s us – can have a lower priority on your list. I believe it will be even more useful this year. I have been reading more articles suggesting this style of hot weather gardening for areas of high temperatures, like that of the southwest U.S. When it feels as though Mother Nature is out to get us and the wind parches our skin, we have the luxury of removing ourselves. Meanwhile, our roses have no

alternative but to stay where we put them. Roses don’t like the intense heat anymore than most of us do. Their main priority is to live, so the plant will conserve its resources for roots, canes, leaves and blooms in that order. The blooms will be smaller with sunburned petals and lessened fragrance. Leaves will turn yellow as chlorophyll is degraded, reducing photosynthesis, and turn brown when they lose the battle to keep hydrated because transpiration can’t keep up. Roots will struggle to take up enough water to maintain transpiration from the leaves, and if the roots dry enough, they will actually shrink and lose physical contact with much of the soil particles around them. However, if your roses suffer desiccated leaves, I do not recommend removing them, as they will provide some shade to protect the cane from sunburn. Remember, if a leaf dies it is easily replaced; if a cane dies, it is gone. Without saying, water needs increase dramatically in extremely hot and sunny conditions. It is essential that you check soil dampness frequently during hot days. Use a water probe or stick you finger to a depth of four to 6 inches, that is, if you have fluffy soil or unnaturally long fingers.

If your soil is too compacted for this method, use a small garden trowel to scratch down to that depth and check the moisture content. A minimum of 4 inches of good mulch over the entire bed will help conserve moisture and moderate soil temperature. You will be amazed at the difference it makes. Potted roses are even more susceptible to heat and drying, because soil in a container will heat up rapidly, virtually cooking the roots. In addition, the soil will contract and pull away from the container’s sides, causing water to run through it rapidly and wash away soil and waste water. Here are a few remedies to help struggling containerized plants: move potted plants to a cooler area under a patio cover or shade tree; never place containers directly on concrete or other surfaces that readily absorb heat from the sun – but if you must, use pot feet or other methods to provide an air space between the container and the surface; position lightcolored umbrellas or shade cloth over the plants; provide plenty of air circulation around the plants to allow cooling and apply three or 4 inches of composted mulch around the plant but not on it. During hot weather, spider mites are a major destructive pest. They are hard to see because they live on the underside of leaves and rasp the tissue. Left alone they can quickly defoliate a bush. Heat increases their reproduction. Look for “dirty” yellow-stippled leaves and, in severe cases, webbing on the underside of the leaves. The leaves closest to the ground are usually the primary ones affected. Don’t spend a lot time looking for the tiny insects. A quick light brushing of the underside of the leaf with your finger will readily support your suspicions. The surface will feel like it’s covered with a fine grit. To help prevent a complete infestation, remove all leaves within 8 to 10 inches of the ground surface. Roses enjoy a good shower – just as we gardeners do – especially after a hot day. Give roses

an early morning shower, before the sun gets too high. Jets of water can blast off dirt, dust and even tiny pests such as mites, mildew spores, aphids, etc. and hydrate your roses in preparation for a hot day. If you use a water wand aimed upward to spray the underside of the lower leaves, you can dislodge spider mites. However, they reproduce quickly, so you must spray every few days. My conservative style of summer care for roses is borrowed from experienced desert gardeners. After the June and July bloom cycle, let the plant go into a minisummer dormancy by removing only the petals, not the hips. In other words, don’t deadhead your roses. Removing only the petals helps prevent pest infestations and keeps the garden looking clean; it also allows the rose hips or seed pods to develop. This seed development sends a message to

the rest of the plant to slow down, producing a short dormant period. Also, it will relieve some of the heat stress on the plant. Continue to supply sufficient water and check your system daily. One broken sprinkler head, clogged emitter or chewed drip tube can result in a dried-out, struggling plant and a higher water bill. Above all, do not fertilize your garden during hot periods – even organic nitrogen can burn the roots of a stressed plant. As I always say, “Roses are like people. When it’s hot, they want lots of water and heat relief rather than food.” For more ideas, visit Temecula Valley Rose Society’s Rose Haven garden at 30592 Jedediah Smith Road in Temecula, as well as their website at TemeculaValleyRoseSociety.org/index.shtml. Spread the joy of roses.

The last thing any home seller ever wants to do is leave money on the table. The uncertainty and ambiguity of the process can be daunting as well as frustrating often leaving the home seller with anxiety over their ultimate decision. It’s amazing how confident some homeowners are when quoting a value they got online from Zillow or some other mega-website that does everything at the touch of a button. If only life were that easy. Everyone has been preached to, for years, to interview at least three real estate agents before making a decision. Sure, many top agents have the latest portable electronic gadgetry that can wow the heck out of you and impress you with a wonderful marketing plan that is sure to bring prospective buyers to your home, but is that enough? What good is 100 buyers touring your home in a weekend if it’s priced below fair market value? When interviewing an agent, pay more attention to what the agent says and not what he shows. Those gadgets of real estate wizardry can all be purchased for a price. Local market knowledge and common sense, these are the attributes that truly make the difference. Let me emphasize how critical it is during the interview process to pay attention to what is said. Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) Regardless of how it’s delivered, the most common method of determining the value of a home, is by preparing a Comparative Market Analysis, aka CMA. This is nothing more than a detailed report that looks at the recent past and present market conditions of similar properties to determine a value. Again, be aware that some agents purchase some extraordinary software packages that polish all the bells and fine tune the whistles – the question remains, “What does the agent really know?” Many agents will use comparisons of homes that are not at all similar. Imagine living in a singlestory ranch home and having an agent justify a price by comparing your home to a two story colonial. Believe it or not, it happens all the time. Every good CMA will include similar homes that have recently sold – ideally in the last three months but never more than a year; homes that are pending – under contract but have not yet closed escrow; and active listing – similar homes that are currently competing with yours for today’s buyers. A thorough CMA will also include similar homes that have been on the

market but have been taken off either as an expired listing or perhaps it was canceled by the homeowner. Each of these categories of homes tells a story about the current market conditions. Let your prospective agent explain the story to determine if they really know what they are talking about. The Basics The basic data are relevant to all homes for sale – or sold. It’s the starting point of assessing property value in any market. Some of the basics that can sway the value of a home for sale include: Bedroom Count, Bathroom Count, Square Footage, Garage – Number of stalls, attached or detached, direct access, Year Home was built, Overall condition, Lot size and condition, Amenities, Location, and Neighborhood. Us versus them Skills the best agents bring to the table will be interpreting the data and being able to determine the value of each adjustment in order to determine what your home is actually worth on the date the CMA is prepared. Skilled real estate agents will know what value a fourth bedroom has over a third bedroom home. Is a three car tandem garage worth the same as a three car side-by-side garage? If not, what adjustment should be made, in your neighborhood? If the kitchen has had a major remodel with new cabinets, granite counter tops and high end stainless steel appliances will that add value to the home or just attract more buyers? Is a model match home worth the same as yours if it’s at the end of a cul-de-sac and yours backs to a major thoroughfare? I can’t begin to emphasize how important it is to insist on having your prospective real estate agent explain every nuance of the CMA he’s prepared and evaluate how much he really knows and how much he relies on software. Is your listing for sale? Unfortunately, in today’s competitive market many agents believe they can buy your listing by suggesting a top dollar list price to get the listing, thinking they will later come back for a price reduction. They’ll do this because either they just don’t know any better or because they want to appease the home seller who believes their home is better than the neighbors who just sold. Other agents will take a listing at any price, even if it is way overpriced. They believe that their marketing machine will generate phone calls and internet leads that will become new business for them, all at your expense – either way you lose. FIGURES NEVER LIE…LIARS ALWAYS FIGURE One of my earliest lessons in business was that figures never lie but liars always figure. Take the time to carefully look over all the CMA’s you’ve been presented, side-byside, never feel rushed or pressured in a listing presentation. Take your time and understand the differences

Tips to deter home break-ins during summer vacations Automobile Club of Southern California SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

With families taking a record number of summer road trips and vacations this year, homeowners may be asking themselves how to deter break-ins before leaving. Home burglaries typically occur during the summer, while families are away or enjoying more time outdoors, according to insurance industry statistics. Homes are burglarized about every 15 seconds, and a homeowner loses on average about $2,316 in possessions and damages, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Nearly 8 million property crimes take place annually, with losses of $14.3 billion, according to nationwide FBI crime statistics which also noted that top items consistently taken were cash, jewelry, electronics such as laptops and other portable devices, firearms and medications. “By taking security precautions when planning their vacations, homeowners and tenants can deter burglaries during the summer months,” Jim Will, vice president of insurance claims for the Interinsurance Exchange of the Automobile Club, said. “Making your home look occupied and locking it to make break-ins difficult is the most significant deterrent to unlawful entry into a home,” Will said. “Unlocked doors and windows make it too easy for thieves to gain access to homes while families are away. The key to preventing home burglaries is taking simple steps to slow down or thwart entrance.” Homeowners can also prevent easy

access through sliding glass doors as well. Commercial locks or placing a steel dowel rod in the inside door track can prevent an intruder from forcing the door open, Will said. Home security systems also can be a theft deterrent. They can be installed through independent companies. The Auto Club suggests these tips to help prevent home burglaries. Never announce your vacation plans on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or personal blogs. Don’t make status updates – even if it’s only to friends and colleagues. Lock all doors and windows before you leave. Use deadbolts, dowels, locking pins in sliding glass doors and windows to keep them from being pried open. Slowing down a would-be burglar will likely make them seek another home that’s easier to break into. If possible, install a monitored alarm system in your home. You may be eligible for a discount on your insurance premium after the system is installed. The Interinsurance Exchange of the Automobile Club offers such a discount. Make sure your home insurance is up-todate and provides adequate coverage if you own luxury goods, jewelry and electronics. Check to see if you need an additional rider or floater insurance policy for those items from your Auto Club or other insurance representative. Keep the exterior of your home and yard well lit with low-wattage outdoor lighting. Trim front entrance bushes, including near windows. This eliminates a burglar hiding while breaking

in. Having your lawn mowed while you’re on vacation, keeps up the appearance of being home. Alert your alarm company. If you have a security system in place, make sure the alarm is set properly when you leave. Close and lock the garage door. Side garage doors should be solid, without any glass and equipped with a strong deadbolt. Stop package deliveries, mail and newspapers, or ask a trustworthy neighbor or friend to pick them up. Don’t let mail, including bank statements and credit card offers, sit in the mailbox to advertise you’re away and tempt a thief to steal your identity. Use automatic timers with inside lamps and a radio. Set them to come on at random times. Remove spare keys from outside your home, especially near the front door or under a welcome mat. Don’t hide spare keys in potted plants. Keep some blinds up and curtains open to keep up normal appearances. Put away personal documents, and place critical documents in a safety deposit box or leave them with a relative. Hide expensive jewelry or place in a bank safety deposit box. If you don’t have a bank safety deposit box, consider renting a box. It can be used throughout the year to secure important family and home-related documents. Keep a detailed inventory of your valuable possessions, including a description of the items, date of purchase, original value and serial numbers and keep a copy in a safe place away from home. If you’re away from home on “trash day,” ask a trustworthy neighbor to put your trash, recycle and green waste bins out on the street that morning and take them back in at the end of the day. Neighborhood Watch programs are great deterrents. If your neighborhood doesn’t have one, volunteer to start one with your local police department. If you’re not on vacation, report suspicious activity in your neighborhood to help protect yourself and your neighbors.

Cat Adoption Special Offered RIVERSIDE – A special adoption rate starts is being offered now through Aug. 10 for all cats at Riverside County Animal Services’ four shelter locations. The special adoption fee of $25 for all cats 4 months of age and older is offered as an incentive to

raise more awareness about the hundreds of cats that need homes, said Frank Corvino, a deputy director who oversees shelter and field services. “We’ve been doing great in the dog-saving business in the past several years, but we’re struggling

to keep up with the abundance of homeless cats,” Corvino said. Currently, there are more than 200 available cats in Riverside County’s shelter locations in Blythe, Jurupa Valley, San Jacinto and Thousand Palms. The $25 adoption special runs

until Aug. 10. “We all need to recognize and do our part to help save more cats,” Corvino said. “That, of course, starts with more responsibility from our current cat owners. If a cat is unaltered that owner is contributing to the feline overpopulation

problem. More cat owners need to get their pets spayed or neutered to help our community see fewer cats impounded at local shelters.” All county shelter locations and hours of operation can be found by visiting www.rcdas.org.

Big changes ahead for taxpayers and businesses Assemblymember Marie Waldron SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

The California State Board of Equalization is an agency familiar to our small businesses. Known as the BOE, it’s a place businesses file their quarterly sales taxes, fee and tax appeals, including fire fee and property tax appeals. The BOE handles tax fraud, taxpayer rights issues and criminal tax enforcement. Effective July 1, most BOE

responsibilities, including permit, audit and collections have been transferred to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, under the governor’s office. In the past, quarterly returns would be filed with the BOE. As a result of the restructure, business owners will file through the CDTFA website at www.cdtfa.ca.gov. For businesses filing their second quarter sales tax this month, select “File a Return” and use the express login or resale number that you have pre-

viously used on the BOE website. While the BOE, with its five elected board members, will retain its constitutional responsibilities, including taxpayer assistance, most functions have been transferred to the new agency. The restructure also creates the Office of Tax Appeals. The longstanding right of California taxpayers to have their tax appeals heard by BOE officials, answerable to the voters, will now be transferred to unelected OTA officials appointed

by the governor. The BOE was established by a constitutional amendment in 1879. Will a massive restructure, hastily crafted during the budget process, of a historic, constitutionally mandated agency that administers over 30 tax and fee programs that generated $60.5 billion in revenue during 2014-2015, result in greater efficiencies or end in disaster? Business owners deserve to have stability along with the ability to remedy issues with CDTFA

oversight. It is my hope that this new agency will continue to be responsive to small businesses and to California’s taxpayers. Assemblymember Marie Waldron, R-Escondido, represents the 75th Assembly District in t h e C a l i f o r n i a L e g i s l a t u re , which includes the communities of Bonsall, Escondido, Fallbrook, Hidden Meadows, Pala, Palomar Mountain, Pauma Valley, Rainbow, San Marcos, Temecula, Valley Center and Vista.

Man accused of resisting Murrieta police skips court date, warrant issued for arrest MURRIETA – A man accused of scuffling with police officers, causing one to fracture his hand, during a confrontation at a Murrieta pharmacy that led to accusations against the police of use of excessive force failed to make a scheduled court appearance Friday, July 7, prompting a judge to issue a warrant for his arrest. Alejandro Rojo, 23, of Murrieta is charged with resisting arrest, attempting to remove a peace officer’s firearm and intimidating the operator of a business. A preliminary hearing was scheduled at the Southwest Justice Center in Murrieta to determine if the charges are justified, but when the case was called in the courtroom of Riverside County Superior Court Judge Jerome Brock,

Rojo was nowhere to be found. Brock signed a bench warrant setting the defendant’s bail at $25,000 if and when he’s taken into custody. Rojo has been free on a $20,000 bond. He was arrested in the late evening of last Sept. 6 after he allegedly fought with officers at the CVS store in the 25000 block of Hancock Avenue. According to Murrieta police Lt. Tony Conrad, the patrolman who first encountered Rojo was flagged down by a CVS employee because the defendant was allegedly ripping open over-the-counter medications and swallowing them. Conrad said that when the officer attempted to detain Rojo near the entrance to the store, he turned aggressive, “fighting with

the officer (and) grabbing onto the officer’s holstered firearm.” The lieutenant said the officer was able to call for backup while wrestling with Rojo, who bolted outside the store after the officer pulled away and prevented him from getting hold of his sidearm. “The officer chased the man outside into the parking lot, where a second struggle ensued between the officer and suspect, who again tried to disarm the officer,” Conrad said. “Additional assisting officers arrived and attempted multiple force techniques in an attempt to stop the suspect from attempting to disarm the officer. Ultimately, the officers were able to overcome the suspect and place him under arrest.” The officer suffered a fracture to

his right hand and has since recovered. Rojo was treated for cuts and abrasions, then booked into jail. Security surveillance videotape of the confrontation was released to the public, and a female customer parked outside the CVS captured some of what transpired, later posting it to YouTube. The video showed officers employing forceful measures to restrain Rojo, prompting accusations from his mother and sister that he was a victim of police brutality. “He was struggling because he was so freaked out,” Minu Rojo, his mom, told reporters. “He wasn’t hurting nobody in no way.” The security video indicated that Rojo did, for perhaps a second, have his hand on the officer’s belt—within reach of the pistol.

The eyewitness’s video did not capture the moment when Rojo allegedly fought for possession of the officer’s gun outside the CVS, but it did show three assisting officers leaping onto the defendant, who evidently would not stop struggling to get away. As officers grappled with the screaming man’s hands, one of them deployed a baton and struck Rojo multiple times in the upper body and head. Images show another officer kicking and apparently stomping on him. None of the officers were charged with use of excessive force. Rojo has no documented prior felony convictions.

Man pleads not guilty in French Valley shooting case MURRIETA – A Menifee man accused of firing a handgun at a motorist in French Valley pleaded not guilty Friday, July 7, to shooting at an occupied vehicle. Andre Edwin Alvarez, 21, was arrested in March following a Riverside County sheriff’s investigation into the alleged attack near

the intersection of Calistoga Drive and Murrieta Hot Springs Road, just west of French Valley Airport. Alvarez was arraigned before Superior Court Judge Mark Mandio, who scheduled a felony settlement conference for July 18 at the Southwest Justice Center in Murrieta. The defendant is free on a

$50,000 bond. According to sheriff’s Sgt. Russ Hilton, shortly before 6 p.m. March 11, a man stopped at Calistoga and Murrieta Hot Springs encountered Alvarez in another vehicle, and the defendant allegedly fired a single shot into the victim’s car, then sped away.

The driver immediately called 911, and deputies arrived moments later, searching the area for the shooter without success, Hilton said. He said that after gathering additional information from the victim and other witnesses, deputies confirmed the alleged assailant’s

identity, culminating in Alvarez being arrested without incident that night. A possible motive for the attack was not disclosed. Alvarez has no prior documented felony convictions.

the wreck. When they arrived, officials found two heavily damaged vehicles, with vehicle parts and debris strewn across the roadway. One vehicle, described as a silver sedan, was sitting in the roadway. The other vehicle, a white mini-

van had smashed through a low, brick wall and was sitting directly across the property line of two adjacent residences. After crashing through the wall, the van narrowly missed smashing into a parked truck. Firefighter/Paramedics and AMR

medics evaluated and treated several occupants from the two vehicles who suffered only minor injuries and had complaints of pain. All declined further medical treatment. Hemet PD is investigating the cause of the collision.

Car plows into garage, triggers fire TEMECULA – A vehicle crashed into the garage of a Temecula residence Monday, July 10, sparking a fire and leaving one person injured. The crash was reported about 11:15 a.m. in the 42000 block of Humber Drive, near Roanoake

Street, according to the Riverside County Fire Department. Arriving personnel found a vehicle in flames where it had plowed into the two-story structure and contained the fire within 20 minutes.

One of the occupants of the vehicle suffered unspecified injuries and was transported to Inland Valley Medical Center in Wildomar for treatment. Sheriff’s deputies were investigating the cause of the crash.

Man killed in Idyllwild fall identified IDYLLWILD – The Riverside County coroner identified a man who died from a fall while climbing on the Ernie Maxwell Scenic Hiking Trail in Idyllwild last weekend. He was George J. Wu, 51, of

Newport Beach, according to the Riverside County Coroner’s office. Riverside County sheriff’s deputies were called at 7:54 a.m. Saturday to Humber Park regarding a deceased hiker, according to

sheriff’s Sgt. Santiago Agcaoili. “The preliminary investigation determined Mr. Wu likely suffered traumatic injuries from a fall while climbing,” Agcaoili said.

One suffers injuries in collision on Highway 74 PERRIS – One person suffered major injuries when a vehicle crashed into and became stuck under a big rig in an unincorporated area near Perris, authorities said

Monday, July 10. The accident was reported at 10:21 p.m. Sunday on Highway 74 at Ethanac Road, according to April Newman of the Riverside County

Fire Department. Firefighters had to use the Jaws of Life to free the patient from the vehicle for transport to a hospital, Newman said.

Fire snarls traffic on I-15 near Rainbow Kim Harris KHARRIS@REEDERMEDIA.COM
