Temecula Parkway lanes to be closed for pavement rehabilitation work TEMECULA – The City of Temecula is close to completing a pavement rehabilitation project on Temecula Parkway between Interstate 15 and Pechanga Parkway. To minimize the impact to commuters, a majority of the work has been completed at night, with the full width of the road open during daytime hours. One of the last operations to be completed is the application of an asphalt emulsion slurry seal on the entire width of the roadway. To properly cure,

the slurry seal material must be exposed to sunlight and warmer daytime temperatures. Therefore, to minimize inconvenience to the travelling public, this work has been scheduled during the early morning hours on Saturday and Sunday, when traffic volumes on Temecula Parkway are at their lowest.

The eastbound and westbound outside (#3) lanes will be closed Saturday, Sept. 10, from 12:00 am – 10:00 am (Friday night into Sat-

urday morning) and the eastbound and westbound inside (#1 and #2) lanes will be closed Sunday, Sept.

11, from 12:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.

These lane closures on Temecula Parkway will also include the closure of the middle right-turn lane from northbound I-15 to eastbound Temecula Parkway.

Drivers are urged to plan ahead for alternate routes, anticipate delays and allow additional time when traveling in this area.

Hemet San Jacinto Chamber endorses Measure U to address public safety HEMET – The Board of Directors for the Hemet San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce (HSJVC) unanimously voted on Wednesday, Aug. 24, to endorse the local public safety initiative on the November 2016 ballot. Measure U, as it has been identified, proposes a one-cent sales tax on certain purchases made within the City of Hemet. It is anticipated to generate $10 million per year to address urgent public safety needs.

The Chamber Board conducted an extensive level of due diligence before endorsing Measure U. They met with and received presentations from individuals representing organizations in opposition and in favor of the measure. They also met with Hemet police and fire chiefs, as well as the City Manager to obtain information regarding public safety trends, current staffing levels and planned usage of the sales tax proceeds.

Public safety is a high prior-

ity for the business community.

In recent conversations with our members, they have consistently cited concerns over the impact of the increasing level of crime to their businesses. The FBI Uniform Crime report shows that violent crimes have increased by 51 percent and overall crime increased by 21 percent since 2010 in the City of Hemet. Beyond the statistics, the business community feels the impact of increased crime on a daily basis.

Businesses experience the hard dollar expense of vandalism, shoplifting and the potential increased cost of insurance premiums, all of which have a direct negative effect on their bottom line. In addition to the hard costs cited, retailers also indicate they are impacted by shoppers choosing to leave Hemet to make their purchases in other communities or on the Internet due to concerns over their safety. These same negative factors are also con-

Sheridan announces five Town Hall meetings in 42nd Congressional District TEMECULA – The Committee to Elect Tim Sheridan to Congress is pleased to announce that it will hold five Town Hall meetings for the voters in California’s 42 Congressional District in September and October. All citizens, regardless of political outlook or party affiliation, are encouraged to attend.

The five Town Hall meetings will take place for Norco and Eastvale at the American Legion Post 328 on Sept. 14, from 7-9 p.m.; in Menifee on Sept. 22 from 7-9 p.m., at the Valley Wide Recreations Wheatfield Park; in Murrieta at Wellness and More from 7-9 p.m.; and Sheridan for Congress Headquarters in Lake Elsinore from 7-9 p.m.

“I’m looking forward to standing before the voters in California’s 42nd District and discussing the issues that touch their lives – as someone standing for election to Congress should,” Sheridan said. “My opponent, 23 1⁄2-year incumbent and establishment insider Congressman Ken Calvert won’t schedule a Town Hall meeting. In fact, unless a group

represents a special interest, Mr. Calvert won’t even talk to voters in an open forum.”

As was done at the campaign’s first Town Hall meeting in Corona on May 12, the event will have a moderator. After introductions, Mr. Sheridan will start with a short statement and will then take questions from the audience.

After he answers each question, he will invite the attendee who submitted the question to ask a short follow-up.

“Voter participation in local political events like town hall meetings have been a building block of our democracy since the founding of our country,” Sheridan said. “I encourage those in California’s 42nd to attend and join in the discussion.”

“My opponent has been in Congress 23 1⁄2 years; I’ve never been there. If we want to make change in Washington, we need to change who we send to Washington,” Sheridan concluded.

California’s 42nd Congressional District, a geographical area shaped like the letter “X,” runs along the I-15 corridor from

Local History of the water rights of people in the Santa Margarita Watershed Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Before recorded history, Native American tribes like the Cahuilla, Santa Rosa, Ramona and Pechanga hunted and fished along the 27mile free-flowing river created by the rainfall and watershed coming off Anza’s Thomas Mountain. The river runs southwest through Anza,

Aguanga, Temecula, portions of Murrieta and Wildomar into Fallbrook, from there to Camp Pendleton where its overflow empties into the Pacific Ocean.

The runoff also feeds a huge underground water basin. Today, the water from the basin is drawn out by wells that many local people depend on for their homes and commercial enterprises. They have no

lakes, reservoirs or water district pipelines to depend on for their water needs. Water is life. Life depends on water.

Since the turn of the century, the local Indian tribes, now contained by the U.S. Government on reservations, and all the ranches, farms, wineries and cities along its path have depended on the Santa Margarita river, one of the last surviving rivers in Riverside County.

The drought has continually reduced its river flow for the last 10 years. Even though the river flow has dropped, Vail Lake is storing enough water to continue growth in the Temecula and Murrieta valleys meted out by the Rancho California Water District. Some of the RCWD’s water also comes from its deep water wells.

Since the turn of the century, the use of Santa Margarita Watershed has been the object of controversy and legal entanglements.

1925: The two biggest ranchers in the Santa Margarita Watershed, Rancho Santa Margarita y Flores and upstream Vail Ranch got into a legal dispute about the river’s usage. The Walter Vail family, the then owners of the ranch since 1904, was using most of the water from the river to feed its 1,000 cattle on the 87,000-acre ranch.

Richard O’Neill, owner of the large downstream ranch, got into an argument with the Vail’s over the water usage. The bitter dispute ended up in the federal courts. A trial then ensued. The trial took almost three years and then remained in litigation until; 1940: The dispute between the two large ranchers was settled.

The court granted Vail Ranch 66 percent of the river’s water to Vail and 33 percent to O’Neill’s ranch.

All others using the river’s water could harvest what little was left.

Water districts were formed in the areas, like Rancho California, that were popping up downstream using what was left and from wells taking water from the underground basin.

Fallbrook farmers and ranchers took advantage of most of the remaining Santa Margarita River groundwater supply and diverted it to their avocado and fruit groves.

The Santa Margarita groundwater added more water resources to the expanding Fallbrook Utilities District, formed in 1922 that used most of its water from the San Luis Rey River in San Diego. All the water from the Santa Margarita River that was not harnessed and used by the large ranches and Fallbrook farmers flowed down to what was to become the Marine Base at Camp Pendleton one year later.

1941: The U.S. Government bought all the Santa Margarita River lands below Fallbrook and De Luz. Upstream, the river’s flow was gradually being reduced as more and more people, homes, businesses and ranches used the river’s groundwater. The Marine Base was expanded by the U.S. Navy during the World War II years and became the biggest Marine base in the nation itself, using more and more water from the Santa Margarita River. A few years after the war, the U.S. Government was thinking about building a dam above the base and sharing the captured water with the FPUD. 1944: The Fallbrook Public Utilities District continued to grow and became a member of the San Diego County Water Authority and four years later began receiving water from the Colorado River diverted from the Metropolitan Water District. The following years, Southern California experienced huge amounts of rainfall. The Santa Margarita River was experiencing tremendous water flows 1948: The Fallbrook Public Utilities District annexes area on both sides of the Santa Margarita River and began developing the additional groundwater supplies. A year later, the government still had plans to build the dam on river and had an agreement to share it with Fallbrook.

1950: The war in Korea began with the United States stepping in to help quell a communist invasion from the north. Camp Pendleton Marines and the U.S. Navy began expanding their bases. More water was needed to fill the Marine base needs and thought they needed all the water they could get from the Santa Margarita River should the war last a long time.

1951: The government withdrew its plan to share Margarita Water with Fallbrook Public Utilities and instead, following the Justice Department questioning the 66 to 33 rancher’s groundwater agreement in 1940, filed a lawsuit against about 50 Fallbrook landowners and FPUD looking to establish its claim to the southern portion of the river’s groundwater for the defense of the nation telling them their water rights were in question.

1952: The case went to trial and the federal judge quickly said all the surplus water in the Santa Margarita agreement belonged to the Marine Base, signaling a win for the government. At that point more and more Fallbrook residents saw the ruling as a violation of their constitutional rights.

About that time, the Fallbrook Utilities v. the United States Government case reached the ears of then Fallbrook resident and Hollywood producer Frank Capra who made a documentary film called “Fallbrook Story,” chiding the U.S. government for “greed and tyranny” stepping on the people’s constitutional right to water. He reportedly served with the lawsuit papers.

The Los Angeles Times also came onto the scene, chastising the government for their action in Fallbrook as well.

1954: Congress approved a $22 million dam at De Luz Creek, giving Camp Pendleton 60 percent of the water and the FPUD 40 percent. The FPUD still was not satisfied and left the U.S. District Court to determine just what the government’s water rights were.

The lawsuit was still to be settled.

1958: The second nonjury trial in the case was to begin with the government reluctantly agreeing to release the landowners who were using the Santa Margarita water only for domestic purposes. The lawsuit cited the fact that many of them were not using water directly from the river but from percolating springs on their properties. About 6,000 defendants were reportedly named in the second suit (some shown in court documents), including the areas’ Native American Indian tribes. Many months passed as more than 2,000 exhibits were brought to the courts attention. The government attorneys in the case painted Camp Pendleton’s water shortage so critical at the time that

without enough Santa Margarita water, it might close.

Testifying on behalf of the defendants in the trail was noted attorney and a Rancho California resident Earle Stanley Gardner of Perry Mason fame. The government’s case began to lose ground. The Honorable Judge James M. Carter of the 9th U.S. District Court judge, of that time, made numerous decrees, some in favor of the defendants and others for the government.

1963: After nearly a year of trial days, the District Court Judge issued his final decree saying the 1940 court settlement between the two ranches was invalid because other water users of the Santa Margarita groundwater were not included. He also ruled that the federal government must abide by state (California) rules and apply for a permit to use any surplus water and that the government had illegally exported water outside of the Camp Pendleton land. With this, the landowners were deemed more the victors. A state permit for building the Fallbrook Dam was proven to be valid.

However, the government quickly appealed the judge’s ruling, saying he wrongly invalidated the 1940 ranch agreement and reversed his ruling saying Camp Pendleton wrongly took water outside of the Santa Margarita watershed.

It did clear the way for the FPUD to go ahead and build two dams on the southern portion of the river in Fallbrook and at the DeLuz Creek in Camp Pendleton. The project in the planning stages is called the Santa Margarita Project or more recently the Conjunctive-Use Project now estimated to cost $93 million.

The major roadblock to permitting commercial wells In all of this action, the court failed in what seems to be the major roadblock to meting out the water to commercial developers in the Valley area. The judge did not spell out who had the right to how much water in the watershed area. It did not “quantify” the water rights. While the state can issue permits for residential water wells in the Valley through the different counties, commercial wells that use more water the county believes must quantify their use.

1968: The proposed two-dam project was held up for lack of funding, environmental issues and the Clean Water and Endangered Species Acts. Another problem was the attorney, William H. Veeder, from the Justice Department that was instrumental in calling the ranch agreement questionable and acted as the government’s attorney in subsequent court cases.

2007: The Cahuilla Band of Indians and the Ramona Band of Indians in the Anza area filed motions asking district court to quantify their rights to the river groundwater, saying that it and its surface waters were theirs and theirs alone, as it was the tribes sole water supply. Anza and Aguanga landowners outside of the reservation were notified that their water rights were now in jeopardy since the court still has to decide how much water belonged to the tribes.

2016: The court still has to decide how much water the tribes and the Valley homeowners have and are able to use. The county, in consideration of the pending lawsuit, has withheld handing out any major community water project permits like the one requested by Thomas Mountain Ranch estates and other Realtors and developers in Anza.

Veeder was moved from the Justice Apartment to the Bureau of Indian Affairs and was adamant about letting no one take the Santa Margarita water from the Pechanga Indian tribe who asked for their rights to be quantified. Those seeking a fair quantification in the water rights fight believe his views could cloud the court’s final decision.

Meanwhile the Pechanga tribe reportedly has pulled out of the lawsuit after reaching a water delivery agreement with the Rancho California Water District and the Conjunctive-Use project in Fallbrook downstream is moving ahead.

‘Blue Ribbon’ campaign called to show police appreciation TEMECULA – Representatives of the citizen-based social media Facebook group “Temecula Talk,” received unanimous support by the Temecula City Council to champion a citywide “Blue Ribbon Campaign” for the community to visibly show appreciation to the Temecula Police Department.

Kerrin Smith and Dana Arrington, administrators of the social media group, Temecula Talk, comprised of more than 36,000 members presented a handmade community-signed card to the city council captioned, “We Support Our Police Officers,” and proposed a campaign to place, blue ribbons outside City Hall and encourage residents and businesses to do the same throughout Temecula.

The Blue Ribbon Campaign is, simply, the community display of

blue ribbons to show appreciation of law enforcement. It will be kickedoff Saturday, Sept. 17, and continue for approximately two months until the holidays begin. The initiative demonstrates that the citizens and businesses of Temecula recognize, respect and appreciate the responsibilities, hazards and sacrifices made by law enforcement officers.

“This initiative has been implemented in towns, cities and counties nationwide over the years and it’s our turn,” stated Temecula Mayor Mike Naggar. “We are grateful to the men and women who risk their own personal safety every day to safeguard our citizens’ property and lives and now, more than ever, the least we can do is hang blue ribbons as a gesture to show the city’s gratitude.”

The Temecula Police Department,

through its dedicated and proactive service to the citizens of Temecula, has established a family friendly but tough-on-crime reputation that continues to preserve safe neighborhoods with superior public safety services for Temecula residents, visitors and businesses.

“It’s wonderful to see the enthusiasm by our residents who are proposing this blue ribbon campaign.

Chief Kubel and his team of police officers have done an outstanding job keeping Temecula ranked as one of the safest cities in the Nation, and Temecula citizens are very proud of this fact,” Mayor Pro Tem Maryann Edwards said. Over the past decade, Temecula has been consistently ranked each year as one of the safest cities in the United States per FBI statistics.

The city of Temecula encourages

the cities of Hemet, Murrieta, San Jacinto, Temecula and unincorporated communities of Anza, Aguanga, French Valley, Idyllwild Mountain communities and Soboba Springs.

“Chuck has been a quick study and is a great addition to the Board of Supervisors. I look forward to his leadership serving the county for years to come,” added Supervisor Tavaglione.

“Our great County will be facing many challenges and obstacles in the years ahead. We need Supervisor Chuck Washington to help achieve the success our residents need and deserve,” stated Supervisor Ashley.

In a statement from the Riverside

Wildomar Mayor Bridgette Moore will retain her city council seat the city announced late last week.

According to a press release issued by city clerk Debbie Lee, Moore was appointed to the City Council during a special called meeting held Aug. 24, as she was the only official candidate for District 4.

“The City Council canceled the

election for this district,” Lee wrote in the press release.

Only one candidate remains for District 2, according to Lee. “At the end of the Nomination Period Dustin Nigg and Linda Gonzales filed and were certified as official candidates for this district,” Lee wrote in her release. “On Aug. 29, Linda Gonzales did inform the City Clerk’s Office in writing that due to health issues she is withdrawing from the race.”

Chuck Washington receives key endorsements in Supervisor race TEMECULA – Chuck Washington received key Riverside County endorsements this week from Supervisors John Benoit, John Tavaglione and Marion Ashley, plus the Riverside County Deputy District Attorneys Association.

“Supervisor Washington has shown himself to be adept at understanding county issues and has done an outstanding job of representing the Third District.” stated Supervisor Benoit.

Washington, the current Riverside County 3rd District Supervisor, has served as mayor and council member for the cities of Temecula and Murrieta. The 3rd District includes

families, friends, and businesses to join members of Temecula Talk in front of City Hall, Saturday, Sept.

FOSTER CARE from page A-1 higher education and purchasing a car or one’s own apartment moving towards full independence. Balancing the realities of adulthood, such as rent, bills, household chores and a social life, is an essential element of character building that mentors know their young housemates need to learn.

Nowhere can the vital impact of this awareness and sensitivity be better seen than in the story of Maria, a bright light in the Damacitas community for overcoming exceptional obstacles. Currently estranged from a mother who turned to prostitution and drug dealing to provide for her family, Maria spent her earliest years in search of stability. Social services intervened to relieve 10-year-old Maria of the unfortunate responsibility of shielding her younger siblings from drugs, their mother’s dangerous clientele and any awareness of their family’s financial struggle.

Although happily reunited a few years later, the difficult realization came for Maria that her mother would usher her toward a similar path as her own. Alerted by a neighbor to Maria’s two pregnancies by age seventeen with an older man, social services came for a final visit. Another year would pass in the comfort of a new foster family before Maria finally experienced the sense of normalcy that eluded her as a child. Along with safety, she was happy to gain loving “grandparents” to help in raising her children.

Today, Maria holds no ill will toward her mother, whom she feels had not known any better, but Maria is determined to keep her own children out of poverty’s grip. While pursuing a nursing degree, Maria works to save up to move out of her Project Independence home. When asked about the program’s influence on her ability towards self-sufficiency, Maria stressed that “this program means being able to find yourself while being surrounded with a great support system and achieving when everyone told you you couldn’t.”

She is resolute that her former foster parents and extended “family” at Rancho Damacitas will prepare her for life’s changes, not just materi-

ally but with practical advice and unconditional love.

Despite seeing a happy resolution to one chapter, for Kristi Piatkoswki, Director of Development at Rancho Damacitas, it is clear that Maria’s story and that many others are not over. Piatkowski emphasizes that “the prevention of homelessness, criminal activity and other risks associated with transitioning out of foster care were imperative for children like Maria who have experienced trauma and is the catalyst of Project Independence’s mission for change.”

More homes mean that even larger numbers of young adults will have access to the mentorship network and a place to return to when needing a sense of familiarity. Every child faces challenges in their transition to adulthood but the fundamental ingredient for success is the confidence that only encouragement from, and open dialogue with, trusted adults and a loving community can bring.

In that spirit, Rancho Damacitas will be hosting its Champion’s Luncheon on Sept. 23, as an opportunity for community members to hear from the children themselves and learn of the contributions of trusted partner organizations. Event highlights will include keynote speaker and retired LA Ram Reggie Doss and honoring Lennar Homes with the Visionary Award for its longtime commitment to sheltering not just foster youth, but the homeless and vulnerable populations. The event will be free to its exclusive guests through the generosity of sponsors, including US Bank, Rancho Christian Schools and many other community organizations.

The event is sure to open eyes and hearts to the incredible difference the public’s contributions can make and provide the spark for lasting advocacy.

If interested in donating, volunteering your time and services to Project Independence or for ways to support the event and Rancho Damacitas Children and Family Services, please contact Kristi Piatkowski (951- 302-2317 x221) or visit the Rancho Damacitas website www.4kidsfirst.org.

JP Raineri SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The first official week of high school football in California has come and gone and after weeks of practice, months of strategy and uncounted hours in the weight room, the season could not have come any sooner. The first step in a journey that will lead some teams to new glory, others to league championships and a very select few to coveted state titles, has been taken.

What a night it was across southwest Riverside County especially in the Southwestern League where one team not only tied a school record for points scored in a game, but also gave another new head coach in the valley their first win.

Murrieta Mesa crushed visiting Montclair 70-14 and jumped out to a great start under new Head Coach Darrel Turner.

Other notable games included Linfield (1-0) stunning Desert Hot Springs, Hemet (2-0), San Jacinto (1-1) and Tahquitz (1-1) winning in the Mountain Pass League and the Sunbelt/Southwestern League matchup that went the way of the Elsinore Tigers, who ousted Tem-

ecula Valley 28-0. The Tigers shut out the Golden Bears for the first time since 2012, and the first time ever since Head Coach Rick Mey took over two seasons ago.

Scores and stats for the area teams will follow the Game of the Week recap.

Game of the Week Montclair Cavaliers (1-1) - 14 Murrieta Mesa Rams (1-0) - 70 It was Head Coach Darrel Turner’s first game since coming over from Vista Murrieta and his Ram’s tied a school record by scoring 10 touchdowns against Montclair. Six of the TDs came on the ground and four through airmail as Murrieta Mesa quarterback Jeff Miller completed 20 of 25 passes for 248 yards.

The Rams took a 42-7 lead into halftime, adding 28 more points in the second half as every player on the Murrieta Mesa sideline got into the game for reps. In the ground attack the Rams linemen dominated and created countless opportunities for their running backs to gain over 250 yards. Connor Saludares (Sr) ran 3 times for 65 yards and 2 TDs,

Cody Hazboun (Sr) scored twice on 2 carries and gained 55 yards and senior Kollin Di Fiore, who was also on the receiving end of a Jeff Miller touchdown pass, gained 46 yards on 7 carries and scored.

Through the air junior Giovanni Sanders saw sevens on the slots as he caught 7 passes for 77 yards, senior Jacob Ray hauled in 3 passes for 76 yards and a touchdown, sophomore Anthony Eberhardt caught 1 pass for 52 yards, senior Cody Hazboun brought down six catches for 50 yards and a score and senior Malik Tabikha had three receptions for 34 yards and a TD. Sophomore quarterback Austin Cochren got some late game reps and had 31 rushing yards and senior RB Bryce Hawkins ended his night with 28 yards and a TD. Murrieta Mesa will be home again for the next two weeks and will face Palm Springs this week who will undoubtedly be a tougher opponent for the Rams. The Indians compiled a 23-3 record over the previous two years, but are 0-2 to begin the season, looking for their first win. They lost 27-22 last week to Scripts Ranch. Game time is 7 p.m.

Southwestern League Redlands (1-1) – 28 Murrieta Valley (2-0) - 41 MVHS: QB Hank Bachmeier – 142 yards passing; RB Lika Palmer – 95 rushing yards, 4 TDs; RB Austin Bacher – 83 rushing yards, TD; WR Marquis Spiker – 15 yard receiving TD. The Nighthawks will have some out of state guests this week from Aurora, Colorado. The Wolves from Grandview High, ranked No. 7 in the state are 1-0 on the season as they head into town. Game time is 7 p.m.

Redondo Union (1-1) – 0 Vista Murrieta (2-0) – 31

lost their opening game to Murrieta Valley 55-31 Temecula Valley (1-1) – 0 Elsinore (2-0) – 28 *Sunbelt League TVHS: WR Zach Simon – 7 receptions for 93 yards; Defense: Mafia Thurmond – 11 total tackles.

EHS: QB Tim Jakell – 4 for 9, 93 yards passing, 2 TDs; RB Brandon Payne – 18 carries for 141 yards, 2 TDs; RB Anthony Reyes – 10 carries for 97 yards, 2 receptions for 63 yards, 1 TD; WR Isaiah Hobson – 1 catch for 24 yards, TD. Defense: Kevin Swanson – 7 total tackles, QB sack.

The two oldest schools in the area faced off against each other to decide who takes home the Perpetual Trophy. Elsinore proved to be too hot to handle as the Tigers shut out the Golden Bears this year, winning the trophy back after losing it last year. Since 2004 the two rivals have played each other eight times with the Tigers leading the series 5 games to 3.

Temecula Valley has a bye this

VMHS: RB Gabe Castaneda – 82 rushing yards, 2 receiving TDs; QB Karson Greeley – 35 yard rushing TD, WR Khalil Shakir – 48 yard punt return for a TD; Kane Page – 31 yard FG. The Broncos will face Santiago from the Big VIII next week in Corona. The Sharks are 1-1 this season and are coming off a 41-10 victory over Citrus Hill. Santiago see SHOWDOWNS, page B-2

Southwest Soccer Club sees success in Spain JP Raineri SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Earlier this summer the Southwest Soccer Club of Temecula sent three of their local teams to compete in the Donosti Cup and the Costa Daurada Cup in Spain.

The players faced tough competition, putting all their energy and passion into each game. Teams from 56 different countries were represented at the tournaments, where the SWSC teams qualified in the semifinals and quarterfinals throughout their runs.

The teams not only had the op-

portunity to participate in such extraordinary tournaments, but they had the chance to dive into the Spanish culture. The players traveled across the country, seeing the spectacular architecture and experiencing the Spanish lifestyle. The Southwest Soccer Club not only gave these players the opportunity to showcase their talent in these tournaments, but indulge in the culture of the country they would be living in for the two weeks that they were staying abroad.

SWSC works hard to promote the players outside of the United States by creating a relationship

with some top clubs in the world such as West Ham United, England; America and Toluca, Mexico and Real Madrid, Spain. The vision is to prepare players for soccer competition at the highest level of their ambition, abilities and potential while also teaching character building principles that will encourage players to grow to their personal best as athletes, students and members of the society.

HS Girls Volleyball: Murrieta Mesa moving under Manning Thomas Thompson VALLEY NEWS INTERN

No matter the sport, the Southwestern League is riddled with talent. Nobody knows that more than Pat Manning, Murrieta Mesa’s newest addition to its continuously building portfolio of quality coaches. The past few years have proven to be a highlight reel of positive experiences for many programs at the newest school to the area, and with new leadership in the athletics office, quality sports programs and academic success overall are the ultimate goal at MMHS. “Last year was Lucky No. 7 for Mesa Athletics. It was historic for many reasons. From the Baseball teams CIF Championship to eight other teams all having the most successful seasons in school history. In a conference like the Southwestern League, it’s tough to get in the fight.

Last year was a marker for us all.

With this being year 8, I am confident we will continue our push toward athletic excellence,” exclaimed John Broussard, currently entering his second year as the school’s athletic director.

Manning, who took last year off, is the former head coach for Chaparral High School and knows a thing or two on how to extend a season.

In his six years with that program, he took the Lady Pumas to the post season four times and fully expects this year’s group of girls at Murrieta Mesa to have the same outcome.

“They are bunch of scrappers, perhaps overlooked by other programs, which is just fine with me,” says Manning, who knows the feeling all too well. “Mesa had a stigma, it was like walking into a place you wanted to get out of right away. When my teams had to play here before, we were ready to get back on the bus right away after a win. Now, there is a whole new outlook, new excitement and energy and great parent support as well as school support.

The girls have their sights set on winning league, as do I and until we see otherwise, that’s the plan we are going to stick with.”

The Lady Rams of Murrieta Mesa are already 4-0 in the preseason with wins over Paloma Valley, Riverside Poly, Hemet and Tahquitz. The biggest test of their preseason came Tuesday, Sept. 6, when they faced Heritage at Murrieta Mesa. Via social media, Heritage is a confident group, having only played and won one game this season so far, but fans of both schools expect it to be a great match-up for the area. Scores available next week in the Valley News.

The Lady Rams are led by return-

All eyes on Kaepernick as Bolts wrap-up preseason JP Raineri SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Well, you made it. At least we hope you made it through the boring month and a half that is called preseason football. NFL training camps and now the 2016 preseason are over. You can finally exhale and finish off your fantasy football drafts after six weeks of worrying about injuries and ailments during this portion of the NFL year.

Cuts will start rolling in this afternoon as every team needed to be down to 53 players by Saturday, Sept. 3. The men competing for spots have had all the time they are going to get to audition for their futures in the NFL. And of course, what helps a boring preseason? How about some drama in the NFL? One of our local favorite teams wrapped up their preseason, and they did so in dramatic fashion…before the game even got started.

Colin Kaepernick and his San Francisco 49ers rolled into town to face the San Diego Chargers Thursday, Sept. 1, and without flinching, he continues to not stand during the national anthem.

Kaepernick made headlines late last week as he willingly immersed himself into controversy by refusing to stand for the playing of the national anthem before the 49ers’ preseason loss to Green Bay at Levi’s Stadium Friday, Aug. 26. He says he is doing it in protest of what he deems are wrongdoings against African-American and minorities in the United States.

“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,” Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game. “To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”

The 49ers issued a statement about Kaepernick’s decision: “The national anthem is and always will be a special part of the pregame ceremony. It is an opportunity to honor our country and reflect on the great liberties we are afforded as its citizens. In respecting such American principles as freedom of religion and freedom of expression, we recognize the right of an individual to choose and participate, or not, in our celebration of the national anthem.”

Fast forward a week and again the San Francisco 49ers quarterback knelt during the national anthem against the San Diego Chargers at Qualcomm Stadium, but Kaepernick, 28, was not alone this time in his protest. Teammate Eric Reid also dropped to a knee. That same night, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Jeremy Lane refused to stand during

ing sophomore and team captain Kali Uhl, who has not only verbally agreed to attend the University of Arizona, but is also a Junior Olympian that is currently leading the league with over 75 kills in her first four games. Co-captain, Lucy Herrera, heads up a list of four returning seniors which also includes Leimomi “Mo” Arscott, Elena Duran and the powerful lefty, Jaelah Rentie.

Savannah Esteban is the only junior to return to the court for the varsity squad at Murrieta Mesa, but fellow teammates Hannah Watje and Kiara Schmidt bring their varsity experience to the table right beside their junior setter.

from Chaparral, but we know their replacements are going to put up a fight, so we can’t wait to be tested by our Southwestern League counterparts,” says Manning.

Southwestern League action for the Lady Rams begins Thursday, Sept. 22, when Murrieta Mesa takes on Temecula Valley at the Lady Golden Bears home court. Also, be on the lookout for info regarding the upcoming Pink-Out games.

The yearly event featuring schools and players discussing the ideology behind the Pink-Out games is set to begin at the end of this month at Vista Murrieta, with games taking place throughout October.

Newcomers to watch this year for the Lady Rams include: Sarah Casas, who is a dominating threat at the net; in the backcourt watch for the athleticism of defensive specialists, Skylar Raineri and Sophia Maulupe, who will certainly keep fans on their toes with their impressive digs; and make sure to keep an eye out for Tryniti Ray, Britney Abshire and Zayla Paschall, who fill out the final spots on this year’s roster for Murrieta Mesa, bringing a new sense of energy with their presence on the court.

the national anthem before his game against the Oakland Raiders.

Charger fans booed Kaepernick every time he touched the ball in the game. Though there were also some cheers for him in the wake of #VeteransForKaepernick, a social media trend that started after military veterans defended Kaepernick’s actions.

Leading up to the game, the Chargers visited the Marine Corps Air Station at Miramar as a part of the team’s annual Salute to the Military preseason game. Holding the walk through the day before the game has been a tradition for over a decade.

“The military is such a big part of San Diego, which is a reason it is a big part of the Chargers as well,” said President of Business Operations A.G. Spanos. “Our relationship with the military has gone on for decades.

This was our 28th Annual Salute to the Military game, and it’s hard to put into words how meaningful that is to our organization. Having the chance to spend time earlier this week with not only the men and women of our military but their families is something we always look forward to.”

Despite all the controversy before the game, the San Diego Chargers fell 31-21 to the San Francisco 49ers in their final preseason match. The Niners took a three point lead with just over three minutes left in the game and tacked on seven more after capitalizing off a San Diego turnover.

Kelvin Taylor ran the ball in the end zone for 10 yards to score the 49ers third unanswered touchdown with two minutes left in the game.

In a loss that really means nothing, some of the youngest Bolts found the end zone in FB Chris Swain, RB Kenneth Farrow and WR Isaiah Burse. After cuts are made and the players kick-off their regular season practices, San Diego will take to the road for their first game of the season against the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday, Sept. 11. The Bolts first home game will be Sunday, Sept.

18, against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Woman of Wellness teaches how to treat varicose veins tory of varicose veins, are women who have had multiple pregnancies, people who are overweight and people who stand for long periods of time. Genetic factors are most important, he added.

Moldovan then detailed the anatomy of the condition. Healthy veins, he said, contain valves that open and close to assist the return of blood back to the heart. Venous reflux disease develops when the valves that keep blood flowing out of the legs and back to the heart become damaged or diseased and the blood does not flow correctly, causing the veins to bulge with a reflux of blood.

To confirm the disease, a vascular doctor obtains the patient’s medical history and performs a physical exam. In most cases, Moldovan said, an ultrasound will be performed to detect the presence of reflux in the veins. The ultrasound is performed in the doctor’s office by a registered vascular technologist (RVT) in an accredited vascular lab and interpreted by a board certified vascular surgeon.

If the patient had tried compression stockings, elevation of the legs and a regular routine of exercise and the symptoms have

Lucette Moramarco STAFF WRITER

The July 7 Woman of Wellness program featured Dr. Stefan Moldovan talking about varicose veins at Fallbrook Library. A vascular surgeon, Moldovan informed the room full of ladies, and a few men, about the symptoms and causes of this common condition.

Forty million people in the U.S. have varicose veins; 25 percent of women have it while the number of men with it is 15 percent and growing. Not everyone who has it has the symptoms, which include burning, hard or leathery skin, venous ulcers, swelling, heaviness, pain, discomfort and a heaviness in the legs.

Moldovan said that varicose veins are swollen, blue, bulging, twisted superficial veins of the legs.

Superficial veins, he explained, are those closest to the surface of the skin. Deep veins are located within the muscle compartments of the legs while perforator veins connect the superficial veins to the deep veins.

He said that those who are at risk for this condition are over 55 years old, have an immediate family his-

not resolved, one of the following procedures can be performed: Radiofrequency ablation uses radiofrequency energy to heat, collapse and seal off the targeted blood vessels. Clarivein uses an infusion catheter system with a unique rotating tip that allows for 360 degree coverage of the blood vessel, scratching the inside of the vein with solution which makes it clot. Sclerotherapy involves an injection of a solution (generally a salt solution) directly into the vein. In laser ablation, the abnormal veins are heated by a laser and the body then absorbs the debris.

Moldovan said that stripping veins is a procedure that is no longer used. Today, treatment can be done under local anesthesia on an outpatient basis. He advised that all sources of reflux need to be treated.

The most frequently used procedure is radiofrequency ablation which takes the affected vein out of the blood system, redirecting blood to other, healthy veins. He said this is a better, less painful option.

The patient lays down, and her leg is prepared from groin to ankle; a wire catheter is threaded up the vein and connected to a regulator of radio frequency or laser energy.

The vein clots and shrinks in two minutes. The leg is then wrapped in an elastic wrap and the patient can walk out.

Afterwards, the patient should walk for 20 to 30 minutes to keep the blood flow going and prevent a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) from developing. An ultrasound is performed the following day and again a week later to check the veins. An anti-coagulation medication may also be prescribed. Exercise, good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle are also recommended post recovery.

According to Moldovan, radiotherapy and clarivein both produce post procedure bruising and have the best success rate with a fast recovery and less pain than surgery or laser therapy. Radiotherapy and laser therapy both minimize the chance of DVT. Laser therapy is the most painful of all the treatments, he said.

As for cost, he said that the procedures are covered by most insurance companies but some require more documentation than others.

The procedures are necessary for medical reasons, he added, and are “not vanity.”

Desert Hills Memory Care gives back to community youth HEMET – Desert Hills Memory Care, located at 25818 Columbia Street in Hemet, has partnered with Together We Rise to help children entering the foster care system. Residents and associates at Desert Hills came together to decorate and donate duffle bags to the organization.

Together We Rise is a non-profit organization dedicated to changing the way youth navigate through the

foster care system. Many children removed from their homes have to leave in a hurry, with nothing more than a trash bag in which to pack their belongings. Working with other organizations and agencies, Together We Rise collects new bicycles, college supplies and suitcases so that children and youth can travel between foster homes with dignity.

Desert Hills Memory Care want-

ed to give back to the community in a special way, and decided to make unique “sweet-cases” for kids to carry. By decorating duffle bags to donate to Together We Rise, they are making a great impact on the quality of life for our community’s youth.

This project is also inspired by the memory care community’s Everwell Triathlon, a three-month initiative throughout all Cascade

Living Group communities to inspire well-being through active lifestyles. Desert Hills’ “sweetcase” donation was part of July’s vocational wellness challenge.

For more information about Desert Hills Memory Care programs and activities, please contact Chantelle Hudson at (951) 652-1837.

Founded by four partners with extensive experience in senior living, Cascade Living Group is

dedicated to providing high-quality senior living and care communities throughout the western United States. Cascade Living Group currently owns, operates and is in the process of developing senior housing communities that offer a broad range of senior living options including active, adult independent living and assisted living, as well as integrated Alzheimer’s and memory care communities.

Finding positive ways to handle the loss of a job denial, and of finding it difficult to accept what has happened.

These reactions are often followed by anger. And while those who took away your job may be the culprits, unfortunately the anger is usually taken out on those closest to you. You may find yourself tense and stressed, more easily upset and quicker to react harshly to family and friends.

Some people become preoccupied with trying to get that old job back, no matter how unrealistic or even undesirable that might be. A person may also experience sadness and depression along with questioning his or her worth and abilities.

Understanding that these are all normal reactions can help someone get through them quicker, accept the job loss and start creating a new work life.

American Counseling Association SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

While reports indicate the current economy is pretty good for most people, and that unemployment is at its lowest level in years, the good news doesn’t hold true for everybody.

Every day, people across the country learn that they are being let go.

And regardless of the reason for being terminated, it is never a pleasant experience.

The financial burden of losing a job is its most noticeable effect, but there can also be significant mental and emotional stress.

Experts say reactions to a termination are often similar to what we experience upon the death of a loved one or the end of a relationship – immediate reactions of shock and

Start to help yourself through the trauma of job loss by not adding extra stress to your life. It’s not a time for major life changes, but rather to continue living normally. Eat healthy, exercise, get plenty of rest and keep socially involved, maintaining contact with friends and family.

It’s also a good time to evaluate and set future goals. Is now a time for more education, to look to a new career field or to sharpen up your job skills? Have you evaluated what will make you feel rewarded and fulfilled in a new job? Are you using your network of family, friends and other contacts to help in your job search?

Rather than dwelling on the lost job, focus on what’s to come.

If you find job loss is overwhelm-

Women in the California Legislature Marie Waldron SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

When I was elected to the Assembly in 2012, I was the 136th woman to ever have served in California’s Legislature. Women first received the right to vote in California in 1911, and in 1918, Esto Broughton, Grace Dorris, Elizabeth Hughes and

Anna Saylor became the first women elected to the State Assembly.

Since then, 147 women have been elected to serve in the Legislature, though no woman was elected to the State Senate until 1976.

Today, women serve at all levels of leadership, including Minority Floor Leader, a position to which I was first appointed two years ago.

Women bring a different perspective to the job. As wife and mother, my family’s health and well-being is always important. Women must balance home, family, small businesses and legislative duties. This concern has guided me in my committees, in the bills I have introduced and co-authored and in my keen desire to ensure California

remains prosperous and economically viable for our children’s futures. Though traveling over 1,000 miles round trip each week for most of the year makes balancing family, business and Sacramento responsibilities challenging, serving as a voice for the people I represent is a responsibility I embrace.

Thirty women of 120 total leg-

islators now serve in the Capitol, down from a peak of 37 in 2004.

The political barriers that once existed have long since fallen away, and today men and women stand equally on the floor of the State Legislature. I am honored to have your trust, and look forward to continuing to serve as your representative in Sacramento.

deaths on June 25. During Sugar Ray Robinson’s boxing career, he fatally injured one opponent in the ring. Jimmy Doyle was knocked unconscious in a June 24, 1947, bout and died the next day. I had a friend who was a former boxer and had been a close friend of Jimmy Doyle, and my friend told me about the fight which caused Jimmy Doyle’s death. He didn’t tell me the date, and I didn’t realize it was June 25 until I read more about the bout. June 25 meant nothing to my friend, but it’s how I remember the date Jimmy Doyle died.

I once promised a couple of childhood friends that if I ever write a best-selling book, I’ll take them to Italy. One of those friends has an August 18 birthday and the other was born on December 4. Were it not for their birthdays I wouldn’t remember the August 18, 1967, date baseball star Tony Conigliaro was beaned or the December 4, 1971, casino fire documented in the Deep Purple song, “Smoke on the Water.” I associate those two tragedies with my friends’ birthdays only because that’s how I remember the dates.

happened on one’s birthday can provide additional knowledge of the events and the people involved.

When your birthday falls on a tragedy Joe Naiman JNAIMAN@REEDERMEDIA.COM

In December 2005, I was visiting my friend Robin, who lives in Las Vegas and whose daughter was seven at the time. Robin asked me about my next planned trip, and that involved visiting San Francisco for the 100th anniversary of the 1906 earthquake. I had learned about the annual ceremony, which included some of the remaining earthquake survivors, so I wanted to attend the 100th anniversary commemoration.

I began telling Robin and Grace about my plans which were eventually altered. “Every April 18…”

“April 18. That’s my birthday,” Grace said.

Grace is now 18 and likely knows that the 1906 San Francisco earthquake occurred on what became her birthday. She wasn’t aware of that information when she was seven.

A few days later I met Clyde Frost. Clyde Frost was a rodeo bronc rider in the 1950s and 1960s who qualified for five of the first six National Finals Rodeo competitions. His son, Lane, was the world Bull Riding champion in 1987.

Lane Frost was killed in the arena in 1989. Most rodeo fans know that he was killed during Cheyenne Frontier Days. I can remember the date as July 30, 1989, as July 30 would eventually become my younger daughter’s birthday.

Lane Frost was killed by a bull.

George Custer was killed by Sitting

Bull. The date was June 25, 1876, and I can remember the June 25 date since that is now my older daughter’s birthday.

The tragedy associated with my son’s birthday is fictional. In the original “Terminator” movie, the Skynet defense system which eventually determined humans to be a threat and began eliminating people went online on August 4, 1997.

Tragedies happen, and often people’s birthdays are associated with a tragedy. In some cases, such as September 11 or December 7, the famous tragedy is often overriding, but in many cases it can either be mitigated or can lead to remarks of knowledge.

Prepare for revisiting a tragedy On February 3, 1959, a plane crash in Iowa killed musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. Richardson. It was a tragedy at the time, but the anniversary was eventually downplayed. In 1971 Don McLean recorded the song American Pie about the day the music died, and the deaths of the musicians including the February 3 plane crash date once again gained prominence.

A tragedy or a celebration?

Sometimes a tragedy from one point of view is a celebration from another perspective. One’s view on abortion determines whether January 22 is a tragedy or a celebration.

October 3 is a tragedy for Dodgers

fans but a celebration for Giants fans.

Few people born on January 22 will obtain their view on abortion based on the 1973 Supreme Court decision that day which legalized abortion. Loyalty to the Giants or Dodgers can be more flexible.

Dennis Ackerman, who was the commissioner of the CIF San Diego Section which is the governing body for high school athletics in San Diego and Imperial Counties, was born on October 3, 1951, which was the exact day Bobby Thomson homered to give the Giants the pennant. Dennis grew up in Riverside, which is closer to Los Angeles than to San Francisco, but Dennis became a Giants fan. Dennis’ support of the Giants would be enhanced when Riverside Poly High School graduate Bobby Bonds joined the Giants in 1968, but Dennis attributes his Giants loyalty to his date of birth.

You know better than others You might know of a tragedy which happened on your birthday or the birthday of a family member, but others might not have that association. I first saw the original Terminator movie before my son was born, and I didn’t remember the August 4 date Skynet went online. I saw the movie again after my son was born, and since he has an August 4 birthday I remembered the Skynet activation date.

The Battle of Little Big Horn didn’t produce the only tragic

Find your saint My birthday is January 23. On January 23, 1945, former newspaper editor Nikolaus Gross was executed in a Nazi concentration camp. The Nazis executed people, including journalists, nearly every day of the year. However, Nikolaus Gross was a proponent of his Catholic faith and is currently under review for sainthood. He has been beatified, and January 23 has been declared his feast day.

The feast day for many Catholic saints is the day they were martyred. Former Chicago Sun-Times reporter and current Cook County Sheriff’s Department director of public affairs Abdon Pallasch has a first name which doesn’t reflect his Polish and Irish ancestry, but Abdon is actually Abdon Pallasch III and his grandfather was born on the Feast of St. Abdon, who was the first Christian martyred in Turkey.

Not all Catholic saints who died on their feast day were martyred.

When St. Patrick was born he was too insignificant for his birthday to be recorded, but he was well known by his March 17, 461, death, so the date of his non-violent death is used for his feast day.

Some saint likely died on your birthday. If you learn about the feast day on your birthday you may also learn about the life or death of that saint.

School allows for privacy violation This week we were notified by concerned parents that a nine-year-old boy walked into the boys’ bathroom at his Clovis Unified School District elementary school and upon entering found a girl squatting/hovering over the urinal. This young boy was both disturbed and confused. Why was a girl in the boys’ bathroom? Why was she using a urinal? Why was a biological girl exposing herself to a boy in this intimate facility? We ask ourselves the same questions.

A group of parents in Clovis Unified School District has taken the initiative to attend School Board meetings to advocate on behalf of their children. One of the issues they’ve voiced concern over is the district’s policy to allow students to use facilities (bathrooms and locker rooms) based on their gender identity rather than their biological sex.

Many school officials have been wrongly led to believe that because of AB 1266 the “bathroom bill” signed

into law in California in 2013, they have no choice but to implement this policy.

AB 1266 is in direct conflict with the right to privacy guaranteed in Artcile I, Section 1 of the California Constitution, which reads “All people are by nature free and independent and have inalienable rights.

Among these are enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing, and protecting property, and pursuing and obtaining safety, happiness, and privacy.”

There is no shortage of hearsay when it comes to the laws regarding these types of policies. We don’t want parents to rely on hearsay. We want you to have the facts.

First of all, no federal law requires school districts to grant students access to facilities dedicated to the opposite sex. No state law can strip away students of their constitutional right to privacy. Granting students access to opposite-sex changing

What makes America great already?

Bill Freeman SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Yakov Smirnoff, the comic from Russia who came to the U.S. and hit it big in the 80’s, had a famous phrase: “America! What a country!” Yakov Smirnoff talked about going to the grocery store where he saw, “Powdered eggs, powdered milk, baby powder.” America! What a country!

America is a great country. Although one presidential candidate says he wants to, “make America great again.” But is America that bad now? If we think America is great now, what is it that makes America great already?

California is a beautiful state, where I’ve lived the past two years.

So is Florida, where my wife and I honeymooned. And Michigan, where I was born. I like walking on the beaches of those states, seeing the beauty of the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Michigan.

What makes America great already?

The beauty is all around us.

Social Security, begun in the 1930s, and Medicare, started in the 1960s, allow many elderly people

to live with dignity, rather than in poverty. The Affordable Care Act, passed in 2010, reportedly provides healthcare for 20 million more people than those that had it eight years ago.

The Minimum Wage, raised to $15 an hour in Los Angeles and elsewhere, may become law nationwide, so those who work full-time can afford to live on what they make. What makes America great already? Justice – for the elderly, the ill, and the poor.

The First Amendment says, “Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”

Meaning Christians or Jews, Buddhists or Hindus, Muslims or atheists can worship or not worship as they wish. What makes America great already? Religious freedom.

Some would say America is great already, because God is on our side.

But as Abraham Lincoln said, “My concern is not whether God is on our side. My greatest concern is whether we are on God’s side.” So, is America on God’s side?

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., says that America is not always on God’s side. “God never intended for one

group of people to live in superfluous inordinate wealth, while others live in abject deadening poverty.”

Although Dr. King was assassinated in 1968, many would say that what he said back then is truer today than ever before.

The gap between the Have-Nots and the Have-Lots is one thing America needs to work on, along with some others. For example, America is too quick sometimes to wage war and too slow sometimes to promote peace. America needs to rid itself of white police officers who shoot and kill unarmed blacks and hire more police officers who can de-escalate dangerous situations. And America needs to achieve equal rights for everyone: women, children, minorities, gays and immigrants.

What makes America great already? The desire of many people to work on making America even greater than it already is. When that happens we can all say, with Yakov Smirnoff: America! What a country!

Motorcyclist killed in Wildomar crash with second vehicle Trevor Montgomery VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

A Wildomar motorcyclist was killed in an automobile versus motorcycle crash in the area of Bundy Canyon Road and Cherry Street, in Wildomar Sept. 2. The fatal accident happened just east of the I-15 freeway, according to Riverside Sheriff’s Sergeant Dan Ponder.

Deputies from the Riverside

County Sheriff’s Wildomar Police Station and other emergency first responders rushed to the reported accident at about 5:11 p.m. after several passing motorists and witnesses called 911 to report the collision.

Upon arrival deputies and paramedics “performed extensive life-saving measures on the motorcyclist,” Ponder wrote in a press release about the deadly collision.

Despite their efforts, the motor-

cyclist succumbed to his injuries and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

A coroner’s release identified Tom Schmoe, of Wildomar, as the person killed in the traffic accident.

His age was not listed. Schmoe’s location of death was listed in the 22000 block of Bundy Canyon Road, Wildomar.

The driver of the automobile, identified only as a Murrieta resident, was uninjured in the collision.

The driver remained at the scene and was cooperating with the investigation.

Bundy Canyon Road was closed to through traffic for several hours while deputies conducted an accident investigation.

“This is an on-going investigation. The cause of the collision is currently under investigation,” Ponder explained. “Factors related to impairment have yet to be determined.”

Anyone with information about this investigation is encouraged to contact Officer Roberge at the Lake Elsinore Sheriff’s Station at (951) 245-3300. Callers can refer to incident file number WI162460028 and can remain anonymous. Citizens may also submit a tip using the Sheriff’s CrimeTips online form at www.riversidesheriff.org/ crimetips/.

Several children hospitalized after near head-on collision in Murrieta Trevor Montgomery VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Several juveniles from the Nissan were transported to an area hospital Joe Fanaselle photo for follow up evaluation and treatment.

MURRIETA – Two vehicles collided nearly head-on in the area of Los Alamos Road, just west of Hancock Avenue Thursday, Sept.

1. The accident happened shortly after 9:15 p.m., according to a fire official at the scene.

City of Murrieta firefighters and police officers responded to the accident after Murrieta emergency dispatchers received several 911 calls from passing motorists calling to report the two vehicle collision.

The accident happened when a Nissan Xterra and Chevrolet work

van collided nearly head-on while travelling in opposite directions on Los Alamos Road. As of press time, it had not yet been officially determined what caused the accident or who was at fault.

After the impact, the two vehicles came to rest about 300 feet apart from one another. The Xterra ended up near the intersection of Hancock Avenue and Los Alamos Road and the van ending up further west near Los Alamos Road and Parkcrest Drive.

Despite extensive damage to both vehicles, officials stated there were no serious injuries from either vehicle. Paramedics evaluated and

Home near Hemet damaged in fire HEMET – A house in the Little Lake area near Hemet was damaged by fire during the evening hours Monday Sept. 5, authorities said.

The fire was reported at 7:34 p.m. in the 41500 block of Royal Palm Drive, said Jody Hagemann of the Riverside County Fire Department.

“The first arriving engine com-

pany reported a single-story, singlefamily home partially involved with smoke and flames visible,” Hagemann said.

The team of 23 firefighters put

out the flames at 8:15 p.m., she said.

No injuries were reported but an unknown number of residents were displaced, Hagemann said.

Mexican National accused of killing Menifee man in 1993 arraigned RIVERSIDE – A Mexican national accused of gunning down his ex-girlfriend’s lover in Menifee 23 years ago pleaded not guilty Sept.

1, to a murder charge.

Roman Torales Malagon, 48, was arrested in Veracruz, Mexico earlier his year and extradited back to the United States last month.

Along with murder, Malagon is charged with a sentence-enhancing gun use allegation. He was arraigned before Riverside County Superior Court Judge Helios Hernandez, who scheduled a felony

settlement conference for Sept. 13 at the Riverside Hall of Justice.

Malagon is being held in lieu of $1 million bail at the Robert Presley Jail in Riverside.

The defendant allegedly shot Nicholas Macias as the young man sat in his car on Avenida Estrella on the afternoon of Aug. 22, 1993, waiting for his girlfriend, who had just broken off a relationship with Malagon.

Although she did not see the drive-by shooting, the woman immediately identified Malagon as

the most likely suspect, according to prosecutors.

“Macias’ girlfriend told investigators that Malagon… had threatened both her and Macias before the shooting,” said District Attorney’s Office spokesman John Hall. “According to the investigation, not long after the murder, the woman received a call from Malagon, and she asked him why he killed Macias.

Malagon reportedly admitted killing Macias.”

Detectives attempted to track down the defendant, but had no luck

in the months after the deadly attack.

In 2008, a D.A.’s office investigator was tasked with trying to find Malagon, and by last winter, his efforts began to bear fruit. On Feb. 16, Mexican federal police staked out his family’s Veracruz home and spotted the defendant nearby, arresting him without incident.

After extradition proceedings played out, he was turned over to U.S. Marshals, who brought him to Riverside.

Malagon has no prior documented felony convictions.

Trial set for man accused of killing wife, child MURRIETA – Trial proceedings were slated to get underway Tuesday, Sept. 6, in the case of a convicted felon accused of killing his wife and 5-year-old daughter, as well as raping and stabbing his ex-girlfriend, in Hemet.

Johnny Lopez, 36, could face the death penalty if convicted in the November 2013 slayings of 36-yearold Joanna Angel Barrientos Lopez and his daughter, Mia. Lopez is charged with two counts of murder, along with one count each of attempted murder, forcible rape, burglary and being a felon in possession of a firearm – with a special circumstance allegation of taking multiple lives in the same crime.

Riverside County Superior Court Judge John Monterosso was expected to hear pretrial motions Tuesday and outline a trial schedule. Jury selection may take several weeks or longer because it’s a capital murder case.

Lopez is being held without bail at the Southwest Detention Center in Murrieta. He was arrested on Nov. 9, 2013, shortly after the attacks at two separate locations in the unincorporated east end of Hemet.

According to court documents, the defendant confessed to sheriff’s detectives that he had carried out the killings to get rid of his “baggage” – an apparent reference to the victims.

Investigators allege that on the night of Nov. 9, Lopez fatally shot his daughter, whom he’d sired in a prior relationship, then turned the gun on his wife, who walked into the room after hearing the gunfire.

Both victims were shot twice in the head with a 9mm pistol, according to investigators. They were later discovered in the living room of Lopez’s single-story house at 26174 Girard Street.

After the shootings, the defendant drove to his ex-girlfriend’s home at 41060 Sunset Lane, less than a mile away, and allegedly forced his way inside via a window. Carrying an ax and knife that he’d allegedly stolen from a nearby property, he subdued the 30-year-old victim, whose identity was not released, and sexually assaulted her, prosecutors allege.

“According to his confession, he used the knife to slit her throat,” Deputy District Attorney Burke Strunsky said in 2014. When Lopez

walked out of the house with blood on his hands, a neighbor called 911, and a sheriff’s deputy arrived moments later.

“The deputy sees Lopez standing in front of a house across the street and approaches him, and the

defendant takes off,” Strunsky said.

The lawman deployed pepper spray to stop Lopez, who put up a fight, culminating in the deputy striking him with his baton, at which point the convicted felon surrendered, according to investigators.

The ex-girlfriend underwent surgery and ultimately recovered.

Lopez has prior felony convictions for illegal possession of controlled substances and recklessly discharging a firearm.

treated several juvenile occupants of the Nissan before they were transported by ground ambulance to a local hospital for further evaluation.

Officers temporarily closed both directions of Los Alamos Road to through traffic between Hancock Avenue and Parkcrest Drive. The closure reportedly lasted for about 45 minutes while they conducted an accident investigation, the patients were treated, and the destroyed vehicles were towed from the scene. w w w . m y v a l l e y n e w s . c o m

Shakespeare in the Vines Concludes 2016 Summer Season with “Equivocation” TEMECULA (Sept. 1, 2016) – Starting Sept. 8, Shakespeare in the Vines presents “Equivocation,” the award-winning play written by renowned playwright Bill Cain.

Performances take place under the stars at Baily Vineyard and Winery in Temecula, California.

On the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death, artistic director and founder Sheila Havens Ryle directs “Equivocation.”

The 6-person cast features Allan Hamilton Robb as Shagspeare, a contemporary spelling of the Bard’s name; Olivia Lang as Judith; Preston Helm, Zackary Bonin, Richard Rivera and Eddie Hustleby as multiple characters.

All the actors are seasoned theatre veterans from throughout the In-

land Empire and beyond.

“Equivocation” takes place in London, England around 1605.

The government has recently thwarted a terrorist plot to blow up Parliament and to assassinate King James I using 36 barrels of gunpowder. Shagspeare is commissioned by the king’s Prime Minister Robert Cecil to write the “true history” of the Guy Fawkes Gunpowder plot. Also, the king wants witches.

But as Shagspeare and London’s leading theatre company the Globe, under the leadership of an imperious Richard Burbage, investigate the facts behind the plot, they discover that the official version of the story might be a cover-up. They are confronted

with one of the ultimate moral and artistic dilemmas: Do they speak truth to power and lose their heads, or do they lie and take the money? Or is there perhaps a third option—equivocating?

“Equivocation” is a high-stakes thriller with contemporary political and social resonances. The play traverses from the Globe, the Tower of London and the halls of Parliament to the heart of Judith, Shagspeare’s younger daughter, who unexpectedly finds herself at the heart of the play’s mystery.

“The play is ablaze with life, truth and wit”, said Ryle, who is directing her ninth show for Shakespeare in the Vines. “In my career I have directed 128 productions. This is the most intensely

intricate, surprising, bracingly intelligent script.”

Ryle founded the theatre company in 2005. “Of course one of the most important roles of a director is in the casting; my actors are among the best of the best!” Ryle said. “They have to change characters instantaneously on-stage and their talent and hard work results in brilliant, jaw-dropping performances. I am so proud to be the director of this mesmerizing show!”

Equivocation is the fourth and final production of Shakespeare in the Vine’s 2016 summer season. June featured Shakespeare’s classic comedy “Much Ado About Nothing,” and July belonged to “Hamlet.” The comedy of mis-

taken identity and new love “Two Gentlemen of Verona” ended its three-week run in late August.

Upcoming fall shows include the Elizabethan Masquerade Harvest Feast fundraiser for their educational outreach programs on Oct.1 and “The Lion in Winter” runs Nov. 10-19.

Opening night for “Equivocation” is Thursday, Sept. 8. The performances will be held at Baily Winery at 33440 La Serena Way, Temecula. There will be wine, soda, and snacks available to purchase at the performance. Outside food is permitted.

For tickets, go to www.shakespeareinthevines.org or email Sheila Ryle info@shakespeareinthevines.org.

Diamond Valley Writers’ Guild hears noted poet, author H. Feignbaum

Author Lynne M. Spreen, president of the Diamond Valley Writers’ Guild.

Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Published and aspiring writers, poets and authors from all parts of the Hemet San Jacinto Valley gathered to share their works and experiences Saturday, Aug. 27 at the Hemet Public Library. The occasion was the monthly meeting of the growing Diamond Valley Writers’ Guild.

Guild President Lynne Spreen convened the meeting early that morning introducing the month’s guest speaker, published poet and detective fiction author Howard Feignbaum, known for his first poem about the Revolutionary War, “Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys”

Poet and writer Howard Feignbaum was the guest speaker for the Diamond Valley Writers’ Guild at their meeting in the Hemet Public Library Aug.27.

written when he was still in high school. The theme for the August meeting was “Poetry from Past to Present.”

The guild, since its beginning in January, continues to attract more and more writers, poets and authors with its promise to provide an opportunity for its members and guests to share their newest and favorite works with others of similar interests. The August meeting proved to be a challenge of sorts as the library meeting room provided to the guild rapidly filled up and chairs from other parts of the library had to be brought in.

The response to the area’s newest

writers’ group has exceeded Spreen’s expectations growing from a roundtable group to providing critiques of the members’ works, an opportunity to publish their works on the guild’s webpage DVWritersGuild.org and the guild’s online Straitjackets Magazine, published by member author Jim Hitt and his wife Vicki AllenHitt, straitjacketmagazine.com.

The group, in addition to reviewing each other’s writing, gives them insights on how they can better their work and support members at book signings, helping to publicize their stories and poems.

Feignbaum began his presentation with a reading from some of the more famous poets and led a chant “Poet, Poet, Poet,” encouraging all to participate.

“Poets are always put out of sight,” Feignbaum said. “They never get acknowledged.” He said poetry is an art, quoting “The Art of Poetry”

by Christine Perrin and urging all to read it. He said “poetry is like painting a picture with words… there are images created by just one line.”

After giving some examples, he called on the other writers to provide their own image lines.

Several writers shared Haiku verses, like Jenois Lyons Harris

who wrote, “Winter Jewelry Show” with “Silver, Ice, Petals, Opulently, Drape, Proud, Tree.” Other writers gave their verses to applause from the guild members. All who chose to do readings had the same opportunity and received short critiques.

Feignbaum also noted that lyrics in music are also a form of poetry and should be recognized as such. He wrote his own book with that idea in mind called “The Word is the Music, The Music is the Word,” concluding with the attendees reciting the poem, “I can hear the beat, Boom chicka boom, Boom Chicka Boom… I can fell the beat, Boom chicka boom boom Boom…”

Hitt asked some of the writers to submit their stories and poems to Straitjacket Magazine that could be published at the end of the meeting.

Spreen said each meeting has a theme with the next meeting scheduled for the Sept. 24 in the Hemet Public Library. The theme will center on publishing and marketing through social media.

Spreen started the new Diamond Valley Writers’ Guild on Jan. 23.

Spreen was voted president of the new organization. Since taking the chair, she has seen the guild grow each month attracting writers not

only from Hemet and San Jacinto but all over the valley.

Although she spent nearly 30 years as a human resource officer, Spreen likes to say she reinvented herself as a writer, and a successful one at that. Her series of e-books is titled “Middle-Aged Crazy: Short Stories of Midlife and Beyond,” and her novel titled “Dakota Blues.”

Hitt has been an English teacher at the high school and community college levels for 41 years. He always wanted to be a writer from the sixth grade, he said. He finally achieved it in the late 1970s when he began to sell stories, mostly with an American West theme, to magazines like “True West,” and “Real West.” His first book was entitled “The American West from Fiction to Film.”

Spreen invites other writers and authors, published or aspiring, to join the Diamond Valley Writers’ Guild. Membership is only $20 per year. The guild meets from 9-11 a.m. every fourth Saturday of the month at the Hemet Public Library’s Community Room, 300 E Latham Ave. in Hemet.

Manzanita Ranch, “Where Horses are the Therapy” is located in Anza. Its mission is to provide veterans and others suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder a place to spend a day with a gentle horse so they can forget their traumatic memories from war, disease or other calamity.

Roberts says at the ranch “our clients experience an emotional bond with the horses. Our horses are all calm and well trained. Once our guests feed a horse a carrot, brush their coats or learn to clean their hooves, they relax; they focus on the horse and the relationship that quickly develops.

“Whatever is troubling them, whatever the root of their pain these

big beautiful creatures have a very unique ability to help others escape for a few hours,” he suggests. “Our hope is that they develop a new perspective and face their struggles from a positive point of view.”

Roberts said to volunteer and for more information send an email to Ranch Director Johnny Roberts at info@manzanitaranch.org or call (909) 816-9450.

T

he ninth annual So-Cal Chef Open will once again be held in conjunction with the 14th Annual Oak Grove Golf Classic Oct. 24. The golf event will be held at the award-winning Journey at Pechanga course and the So-Cal Chef Open will be held in the Grand Ballroom at Pechanga Resort & Casino.

The double event is one of Oak Grove’s major fundraisers of the year and raises funds for at-risk and special needs youth at the nonprofit Oak Grove Center for Education, Treatment and the Arts in Murrieta, California.

The golf event, initially started 14 years ago by Oak Grove Athletic Director Kevin Keller, as a fundraiser to provide uniforms for the fledgling sports program, has grown to be the sole supporting event of the school’s CIF Sports & Recreation programs including baseball, track, volleyball and basketball as well as running, cheer, dance, martial arts and intramural sports. Support also benefits the Autism Program, providing additional adaptive equipment.

The So-Cal Chef Open was created as an alternative to the traditional post-golf banquet. The popular tapas-format event is open to the public and attracts hundreds of “foodies,” growing in popularity each year. This year over 20 chefs from throughout Southern California are competing in a fun and engaging atmosphere where an all-star panel of judges selects “The Pinnacle Award” winner and attendees vote on their favorite dish for the “The People’s Choice Award.” This year, there is a new “Pastry” category for dessert lovers. Oak Grove Culinary Arts students play a big part in the event, working with Chefs Monica Bustos from Heart of the House and Chef Robin McCoy from Robin’s Nest Desserts.

This year’s Event Host is Food Network star Penny Davidi, owner of Pizza Rustica in Beverly Hills.

Davidi normally is sent to key national events by sponsor U.S. Foods, but was approached by a woman at a food show in Los Angeles to come host this event. “You just can’t be given a gift, build a following and a name and not be willing to give back and to share,” said Davidi, “I’m excited to be involved with this great

event to help kids!” Davidi has five children, aged eight to 20.

Davidi, who had practiced medicine for 12 years as a doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, sees a lot of parallels in the two professions and is passionate about healing people through food, utilizing principles and philosophies of Chinese medicine in conjunction with the culinary arts to make food a “healing and therapeutic art.”

Coordinating Judge for the event is Daragh Matheson (CEC, CCE) Director of Food Service Operations for Leoness Cellars, Avensole Winery, Crush & Brew and Temecula Catering. He is also the Consulting Chef for the Temecula Valley Winery Management. Matheson plans to make the judging more transparent and believes the event can grow to include top chefs from San Diego, Orange County and Palm Springs.

Matheson sees growth in the area, not just in numbers but in the quality of food. “We account for over $6 million in food production each year, we have one of the 10 best restaurants in the U.S, but in the next five years, it’s going to be insane out here!” exclaimed Matheson. Matheson also teaches at the Art Institute and credits low turnover to graduates who are working locally in the food industry.

Lead Judge for this year’s competition is Certified Master Chef Ferdinand Metz from MasterChef’s Institute and former Chairman of the Advisory Board for Le Cordon

Bleu. He also built the large Culinary Institute of America. Metz recently moved to this area. “I’m excited to be involved with a local event with such a good purpose,” said Metz.

Executive Chef William Ramsey from the Soboba Golf and Country Club and the Art Institute is functioning as the Judging Panel Coordinator and liaison between the chefs and judges. “We are definitely stepping it up this year,” said Ramsey, who wrote the rules and regulations.

This year’s judging panel also includes Chef Alyson Cook from the Art Institute, Executive Chef Dean Thomas from the Inn at Europa Village, Corporate Chef Justin Hoehn from Rational USA, Chef Mauro Daniel Rossie who is Academic Director of the Art Institute, Sous Chef William Bauer from Universal Studios, Josh Kopelman who is Publisher of Dining Out San Diego and Stephanie Schulte, Food Editor from the Press Enterprise. Guest Judge is Rosie O’Connor from Provecho Grill in Menifee, who won both the Pinnacle Award and the People’s Choice Award in 2015, a first for the event.

Some of this year’s competing chefs include: Chef Ronnel Capacia from Kelsey’s at Pechanga, Chef Mandy Ramos from Shamrock Irish Pub & Eatery, Chef Feliz Aguilar from Robert Renzoni Vineyards & Winery, Chef Jonathan Perez from 8-bit Brewing, Chef Art Garcia from Blue Water Grill, Chef Kenneth Danko from Devilicious, Chef

Anthony Barlotta from Fazeli Cellars, Chef Kelly Kingman from The Canyon Social Club, Chef Wayne Quintos from the Urban Catering Company, Chef Leone D’Arcangelo from Fresco Restaurant, Chef Josh Diamond from Meritage Restaurant at Callaway Vineyards, Executive Chef Steve Bearse and Chefs Jeff Kirkland and Nancy Cordi from New Life Catering, Sous Chef Taylor Israelsen from the Shamrock Irish Pub & Eatery, Chef Teddy Johnson from Avensole Winery.

Robin McCoy from Robin’s Nest Desserts and Catering and Andrea Maue from AJ’s Bakery and Catering Company will be competing in the Pastry category.

The culinary event also features a silent and live auction.

This year’s event promises to be one of the key signature culinary events for foodies in southern California. The Chef Open is now a separate event from the golf tournament; individual tasting tickets may be purchased for $40 through Oct. 8 and $45 at the door. Sponsorships and golfer registrations are also still available. For more information, visit www.oakgrovecenter.org/ events or contact Rosie Girardot (951) 677-5599, ext. 2271.

Oak Grove serves “at-risk and special needs children and their families through educating, healing, restoring relationships, building character and instilling hope.” Through generous community support, they have recently built a small gym, providing a venue for sports and recreation activities, musical theater and fine arts.

“This is a benefit for our at-risk and special needs students,” said Oak Grove CEO Tammy Wilson. “In addition to our sports and recreation programs, this event also benefits our ‘slow food’ gardens, teaching our kids how to eat healthy and we’re involving them in cooking. A lot of them look up to the chefs in the room as heroes and role models and might someday work in one of their places.

Thanks to the community for their continuous and generous support of Oak Grove.”

Entertainment Bluewater Grill Celebrates its 20th Anniversary with 1996 prices and reunions Sept. 7-Oct. 6 sustainable seafood via their menu of artisanal, chef-driven dishes offered at accessible prices and in an atmosphere of localized, casual style.

The company plans to open its eighth neighborhood location in 2017 when Bluewater Grill Carlsbad debuts in the heart of Carlsbad Village.

To celebrate, the founders are planning “Throwback Thursdays” Sept.

8 through Oct. 6 featuring weekly menu favorites at 1996 prices as well as a Sept. 29 all-employee reunion and group photo on the docks outside Bluewater Grill Newport Beach. The special menu offerings planned range from a half-dozen oysters and calamari to Bluewater’s popular tuna poke in jar, crab avocado dip and housemade New England and Manhattan

NEWPORT BEACH – Back in 1996, Bluewater Grill founders insisted that residents would get “hooked” once they tasted the restaurant’s justoff-the-boat seafood and shellfish dishes made possible by direct relationships with local fisherman.

Twenty years later, the prediction has come true: serve the freshest sustainable seafood and people will come.

The original Bluewater Grill in Newport Beach’s historic Cannery Village opened in 1996 and has led to locations in Redondo Beach, Tustin, Phoenix and Temecula Wine Country and on Santa Catalina and Coronado islands.

Like the first restaurant, the six additional Bluewater Grills continue introducing the public to hyper-fresh

clam chowders.

Co-founder and co-owner Jimmy “Jim U” Ulcickas said the celebrations and changes are the most since he and partner Richard Staunton opened the first Bluewater Grill on the site of the former Delaney’s and Sea Shanty Restaurants 20 years ago. “Back in 1996, Bluewater was at the forefront of the fresh, sustainable seafood conversation,” he said. “Folks weren’t used to getting hyper-fresh seafood and shellfish right in their own neighborhood, and the question of fish origins was just starting to take off.”

“Today, many restaurants claim to be fresh and responsible – but we are still the sustainability leader, on track to practice a 100 percent sustainable trade, and one of the few to regularly certify our menu with the Monterey Bay Aquarium and other organizations,” he added. “We’re also one

of the few restaurants to operate our own fishing boat, which gives us more control over the fish we ultimately serve our customers. It’s a difference you can taste.”

Life-long boaters and fisherman, Ulcickas and Staunton met over their mutual love of the ocean and their desire to introduce others to the wonders of fresh seafood and shellfish. To this day, many of the general managers compete regularly in fishing competitions. The company still captures its swordfish and other fish by hand aboard its fishing vessel the Pilikia just as it did in the early days.

“Even more than restaurant owners, we consider ourselves fisherman at heart,” explained Staunton. “I think it is precisely this appreciation for the ocean that makes Bluewater such a favorite among seafood lovers. We’ve worked hard over the years to build the

consensus that if you want the absolute freshest fish, you come to Bluewater.”

In celebration of the 20th anniversary, the Bluewater Grill website (www.bluewatergrill.com) has been updated with a fresh visual style focusing on the restaurant’s origins and commitment to signature dishes created from carefully sourced and harvested ingredients.

All past and present Bluewater employees are invited to the group reunion photo and reception on Sept. 29 at 3p.m. on the dock outside Bluewater Grill Newport Beach.

Center for Spiritual Living Temecula Valley announces ‘World Day of Service’ TEMECULA – Center for Spiritual Living Temecula Valley (CSLTV), which has been providing spiritual tools that help transform lives since 1996, will be donating much-needed non-food items to Project TOUCH as its contribution to the third annual World Day of Service on Saturday, Sept. 10.

Area residents are invited and encouraged to participate in this important event and to be of service to our local community. CSLTV and its congregation will join thousands of people across the world who will be in service to their local communities.

Individuals who would like to participate in the World Day of Service are encouraged to bring some or all of the following items to the Center betweeen 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.: twin sheets (new or used), toilet paper, feminine products, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, fans and diapers. CSLTV is located at 41831 McAlby Court, #D in Murrieta.

Everyone is welcome. We believe all paths lead to God. World Day of

Service immediately follows the World Day of Prayer, sponsored by a likeminded organization, Unity, and that is not by accident. World Day of Service is a way for us to be “Spirit in action” in our community. So, we pray on Friday and then take action on Saturday. This day is about being a living example of our belief that we are all connected and that together we can transform lives in our community and around the world.

Rev. Dr. Kenn Gordon is the spiritual leader for Centers for Spiritual Living, the international New Thought organization with which CSLTV is affiliated. It is this organization that developed World Day of Service.

“We believe that prayer changes lives. We also believe that the only way God can accomplish anything is through us–God works in us, through us, and as us,” said Gordon. “We can pray that the hungry are fed, and we do, but we also need to take action to feed the hungry. We envision a world that is free of homelessness, violence, war and hunger. World Day of Service is about taking action in our communities

around the world so together we can create that world, a world that works for everyone.”

Center for Spiritual Living Temecula Valley is a spiritual community that honors all paths to God and equips individuals with tools to help them develop a personal relationship with the Divine.

Center for Spiritual Living Temecula Valley (CSLTV) honors all faiths and pathways to God. Started in 1996, CSLTV offers a practical spiritual teaching that draws on the wisdom of the ages and New Thought principles, in order to promote awakening and personal growth. With a variety of services available, CSLTV meets the needs of families, singles, children, adults and seniors. Whatever your lifestyle or spiritual path, you will feel welcomed.

Our spiritual community is ready to embrace, love and accept you as you are. Everyone is included on the path to God! The CSLTV website is located at www.csltv.org and can be reached on Facebook at CSLTemeculaValley.

“Since I began advertising...”

Cindy Barker

“ Something Special iS happening...

Since I began advertising our new housing development (TMR - Thomas Mountain Ranch), with the AVO [Anza Valley Outlook] and sister papers [Valley News and Village News] I have been more than pleasantly surprised at how many people tell me they ‘saw the ad’. This process has reassured me of the value of advertising in your paper.

I am also impressed with the reach of the paper.

Not only am I reaching local residents, but there is a solid 75 mile radius in terms of coverage. For me this is all very important.

See It. Believe It. Dare to Dream.

Design Your Own Dream.

Escape the City. Enjoy Unfettered Views.

Experience Peace and Tranquility.

Working with the team at the AVO has been outstanding. The paper has been flexible with my scheduling needs, assisted with art design and has helped make the advertising side of my business seamless.

Waldron Bills to keep shelter animals out of laboratories and update standards for allergy testing pass the assembly SACRAMENTO – Assemblywoman Marie Waldron, R-Escondido, announced Aug. 24 that two bills, which will benefit Californians, passed the Legislature and are headed to the Governor.

California law prohibits the use of animals abandoned at veterinarian hospitals, grooming parlors or kennels for laboratory experimentation. This protection currently does not cover animals surrendered at shelters or lost animals picked up by animal control.

“Today’s bipartisan vote on AB 2269 will strengthen the mission of animal shelters to care for animals in need, find new homes for homeless animals and reunite families with lost companions,” said Waldron. “It is time for California law to match common practice, modern standards and public expectation by strengthening protections for

AB 1739 would update MedCal’s reimbursement policy so that blood tests and skin tests used to diagnose allergies are treated the same. This would ensure the policy is consistent with the best practices and the most recent scientific literature. The updated reimbursement policy would increase access to timely diagnosis and improve treatment of allergies for many Medi-Cal beneficiaries.

“My bill would correct an inequity in Medi-Cal policy by requiring the state to treat blood allergy tests and skin allergy tests as equivalent in their sensitivity and accuracy for confirming allergies. Allowing a primary provider to administer the test expedites access to care and treatment,” said Waldron.

AB 2269 and AB 1739 await the Governor’s signature.

HOME & GARDEN

Closing the pool for another season Closing a pool at the end of the swimming season can be bittersweet. Homeowners may be sad to bid adieu to the lazy days of splashing and swimming, but ready to embrace the cooler weather and the beauty of autumn.

Before the leaves begin to fall from the trees, pool owners must prepare to close, or winterize, their pools.

Gather your supplies.

Make a list of the supplies you need to close the pool. Having everything on hand will make the process far more efficient than trying to wing it. Closing a pool can be a large job, so it pays to have some extra hands available. Enlist some helpers who will be available to hand you materials or to assist with placing the cover on the pool which can be challenging to do on your own.

Don’t wait until the last minute to purchase necessary chemicals.

The chemicals used throughout the season will also be needed in the winterization process. Therefore, be sure you have enough before pool supplies become difficult to find in area stores. These include sanitizer, algaecide and pH-balancing chemicals.

Clean the entire pool area.

Ensuring the pool water and the surface of the pool is clean can make reopening the pool easy.

Vacuum the pool thoroughly, removing any debris and organic matter that can contribute to algae growth. Don’t forget to brush down the walls of the pool and clean the jets and area where the filter skimmer meets the pool.

Pool walls have plenty of crevices where algae can hide and multiply.

Test the water.

Leading pool products manufacturer Hayward recommends adjusting the pH to between 7.2 and 7.8 to prevent stains, scaling and algae growth. Alkalinity should be 80 to 125 ppm for plaster/ gunite pools and 125 to 150 ppm for other pool types. Test the level of available chlorine, and superchlorinate the pool to maintain a sanitation level of at least 4 ppm.

Once the pool cover is on, the

Before the leaves begin to fall from the trees, pool owners must prepare to close or winterize, their pools.

amount of chlorine that escapes due to sunlight and evaporation will decrease. An algaecide may be used, if desired, as well. In very cold climates, a pool-water antifreeze may be necessary. Check with your pool supply retailer for more information.

Run the filter.

Run the filter at least 24 hours before disassembling the filter for the season. This will help circulate any chemicals added through the water.

Drain the pool’s water to the appropriate level.

Water should fall just below the skimmer opening. Many pools do not need to be completely drained for the winter.

Shut off the filter pump, heater and any other equipment.

Let all water drain out and allow equipment to dry before storing them away. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for lubrication and covering. Install freeze plugs if you choose to use them.

Adjust electricity settings.

Turn off the circuit to outdoor outlets that feed the pool equipment, testing to make sure the power is off.

Put accessories away.

Remove any ladders, diving boards, slides, external drain lines and other recreational materials from the pool, storing them in a garage or shed so they are not subjected to potentially harsh winter weather.

Inflate air pillows to roughly 80 percent full if you will be using them.

Gather your helpers to attach the pool cover or leaf catcher net.

Secure it thoroughly with anchors, water bags, wire fasteners or whatever method is applicable for the cover and pool type. Remember, a quality pool cover will last for several years and keep leaves, dust and other unwanted items out of the water.

Come early autumn, homeowners can begin closing their pools to keep them secure and clean until the next swimming season begins.

Be sure to test pH levels and chlorine levels before covering your pool, and be sure to adjust accordingly.

GAP Auto Insurance and other related auto insurance considerations

Courtesy photo

Morton J. Grabel, Attorney-At-Law SPECIAL TO THE VALLEY NEWS

Sometimes after an auto accident, a personal injury client finds the auto insurance coverage they had purchased does not nearly cover the auto loan pay back or the lease pay back. There is a “gap” between what is owed and what an insurance company will pay if the auto is totaled.

That moment is usually when the client might recall having “heard” of something called GAP insurance when they were in the finance office

of the auto dealer.

GAP stands for “Guaranteed Auto Protection.” GAP insurance is very important when leasing, since the buyer doesn’t actually own the car and usually doesn’t put down a large down payment. If the buyer has an accident, the insurance will pay the current market value of the car, but not the total amount of what is owed the finance company. This difference leaves a “gap” in coverage and an amount that still owed.

Let’s say a $30,000 car is totaled in a collision, there could be a difference owed as much as $10,000, after insurance pays off the finance company.

For this reason, GAP insurance is important for leasing a car. However, if a buyer makes a small down payment or does a “zero down” deal when buying a car, consider a GAP policy because usually the car’s depreciation outpaces the monthly car payment. For example, if a car is bought for $20,000 with no money

down, the car might be worth only $14,000 a year later, even though there is still $19,000 owed. If an accident totals that car, the owner will be responsible for paying the $5,000 difference to the lender.

Therefore, GAP insurance is becoming increasingly important for purchases with no money down and a low monthly payment, even though most car buyers have neglected it.

Leasing companies require GAP insurance, so it is usually included in the contract. If GAP coverage is included in the car lease, check to see how much it costs and remember to compare with other insurance companies. Sometimes lease contracts may include a “GAP waiver,” which protects the lessee from GAP charges in the event the leased vehicle is declared a total loss. That protection eliminates the need for an actual GAP policy. Therefore, it is very important to read the fine print before signing the contract.

There are a few things to keep in mind when buying GAP insurance.

Although most people purchase it when they begin a lease, some car insurance companies will sell GAP policies any time during the lease term or increase the amount of coverage.

The insured must be in compliance with all terms of the lease. The GAP insurance policy might not be honored without collision and comprehensive insurance coverage. Furthermore, lease contracts generally require carrying collision and comprehensive insurance at all times.

If someone steals the car or it’s totaled in a collision, carefully follow all of the requirements of the auto insurance company. For example, some companies require the owner to continue making car payments on the totaled vehicle until the money from the GAP insurance is paid out.

Finally, consider new car replacement coverage. This coverage

may help pay to replace a new car that’s totaled. With this coverage, the policy may allow the insurance holder to replace the totaled vehicle with a new one of the same make, model and equipment; but always read the fine print to be sure.

Saluting The Elizabeth Hospice for loving and compassionate care Marie Waldron SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

This month I would like to salute The Elizabeth Hospice, an outstanding organization dedicated to providing compassionate care for patients and their families in this region for 38 years.

We usually don’t like to talk, or even think, about end-of-life issues.

But when the time comes, the caring people at The Elizabeth Hospice, with offices located in Escondido, Temecula and Carlsbad, are there to enhance the quality of life for those nearing life’s end, and for their grieving loved ones. At The Elizabeth Hospice, patients are able

to live out their lives in comfort and dignity, surrounded by family and friends and supported by expert medical care that focuses on their emotional and spiritual needs.

Since 1978, The Elizabeth Hospice, the oldest and largest nonprofit hospice and palliative care provider for children and adults in San Diego County, has touched the lives of more than 90,000 patients and families. In addition to caring for their patients, services for bereaved families include individual counseling, grief support services and the annual Children’s Bereavement Program at Camp Erin San Diego for children 6-17 who have lost a loved-one.

Riverside County has released its Notice of Funding Availability for the 2017-2018 Urban County CDBG program. The City of Murrieta is a sub-recipient of a portion of Riverside County’s share of CDBG funds and the County’s application and procedures will be used in processing and considering applications.

Murrieta expects to receive approximately $280,000 in CDBG funds in the next fiscal year, which starts July 1, 2017. Of that sum, an estimated $40,000 can be allocated for public service projects.

Non-profit groups and other public agencies can apply to receive funding under the program to provide services meeting CDBG criteria. To be eligible, a program must primarily benefit specific groups, including low-income people, the elderly, disabled adults, the homeless and victims of domestic abuse. When considering applications, the city will be looking at the precise benefit to the Murrieta community in accordance with the City Council’s funding priority for Program Year 2017 – 2018.

Those priorities are community food pantries, women’s programs, domestic violence programs and children and youth development programs.

For the 2017-2018 cycle, please submit three copies of the paper application to the City of Murrieta in care of Izzy Murguia no later than 5:00 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 10.

TEMECULA – There’s a flipside to the housing affordability “crisis” in communities across California: rising values in the Inland Empire are giving many homeowners a reason to tap into their equity and spend money, according to local data released by the California Credit Union League.

Some Inland Empire-based credit unions are experiencing this trend firsthand as homeowners were increasingly heading into Home Equity Lines of Credit (HELOCs), home equity loans (second mortgages) and cash-out refinance mortgages in second-quarter 2016 compared to the same period a year ago (and prior years before).

These products oftentimes require a certain amount of home equity, which has increased substantially as many existing and relatively-new owners continued paying down their mortgages while real estate prices skyrocketed from 2012-2016.

More than 634,000 homes with mortgages in the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario metropolitan statistical area – or 62 percent of 1.02 million mortgages – had at least 20 percent equity as of June 2016, according to RealtyTrac.

(There are approximately 1.49 million local residential properties in total) Meanwhile, data reported by 23 Inland Empire-based credit unions for second-quarter 2016 compared to the year-ago period follows this recent home-equity trend and offers additional insight into the latest homeowner and consumer choices: Originations (incoming pipeline) for the combined category of HELOCs/home equity loans (second-mortgages) increased 71 percent to $15.3 million.

Altogether, HELOCs and home equity loans (second-mortgages) outstanding stood at $157 million (up from $112 million in 2001 but down from $405 million in 2008).

Originations (incoming pipeline) for first-mortgages declined 21 percent to $17.1 million.

First-mortgages outstanding – which includes cash-out refinances as a subset – increased 22 percent to $359 million (up from $84 million in 2001 but down from $415 million in 2009).

Meanwhile, local credit union membership rose 14 percent to 339,000 individuals. Total lending increased 30 percent, hitting $1.7 billion loaned-out. And total

deposits increased 22 percent, hitting a record $2.7 billion.

“The local surge in home-equity lending and cash-out refis reflects a strong national trend in homeowners increasingly remodeling their homes and enhancing their properties,” said Dwight Johnston, chief economist for the California Credit Union League.

He said many neighborhoods across the Inland Empire have enjoyed rapid price appreciation, but some areas still have a relatively large percentage of homes that are underwater or have little equity.

“As more of these homeowners see the light of day with values rising, we’ll see more of this remodeling trend,” Johnston said.

“Pulling out home equity seems to have legs and is here to stay, especially since job growth across California remains strong and is supporting household stability.”

You can view the entire Inland Empire report for local trends on first-mortgages, second-mortgages, HELOCs, business loans, new and used auto loans, credit cards, deposit accounts (checking/savings and other) and operational/ employee data.

How you can best stage your home for sale Mike Mason SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Simply put, the spring/summer home retail buying season is over. Children are back in school, our focus now is toward family, upcoming political elections and don’t forget the holidays will be here before you know it. Purchasing that dream home before the children start school is no longer an option.

The trend now until the end of the year will be an increase in the number of homes for sale, creating even more options for buyers. This is not the real estate market where you can mow the lawn, list the home for sale and open escrow all in the same week. Today, qualified and approved buyers have options and are not feeling the pressure to jump at every house they think will meet their needs.

In order to separate your home from the competition, it’s important that your home shows well. Sure, the granite counter tops in the kitchen and the subway tiles in the bathroom look great and go a long way…but showing well is so much more than a few upgrades. Showing well is allowing the prospective buyer to visualize themselves moving into your home and making it their own – turn-key.

Full Price Buyers don’t want to think about tearing out carpet or repainting walls. They sure won’t be able to visualize themselves living in your home with dated wallpaper or borders adoring every wall.

Focus on living spaces Do you have a home office? If not, you need to create one. Ten years ago, perhaps a home office was considered a trend – today they are a necessity and if your potential buyer cannot visualize where they will set up their home office they will probably be passing and not making an offer on your home. You may have to set up the spare bedroom as the home office

Don’t forget the personal spaces Bedrooms and bathrooms are often overlooked by the home seller.

These are important spaces that can make or break the prospective buyer’s decision to make an offer on your home, or not. Spruce up the bedroom with a new comforter set that includes a matching bed skirt and pillow shams. Find a coordinating window treatment.

Clear off the tops of all dressers and nightstands of everything personal and all clutter. Eliminate any hooks you have on the back of the door or on a wall, for clothes storage. Put a closet organizer in the closet, to make more space. Make certain that or just carve out a corner or a quiet place in the home. I’ve seen them, successfully installed in a walk-in closet. When designing your home office space, make sure that there is ample electricity, telephone lines, lighting (natural is best) as well as adequate ventilation and heat/air conditioning.

What area of the house will the prospective buyer visualize themselves spending the majority of their time? Put a lamp next to a comfortable chair and establish a reading corner. Pull the sofa away from the wall and float them in the room, creating a designer look.

Don’t forget to use area rugs over tile or wood floors to create furniture groupings.

It’s very important to eliminate personal memorabilia from the

entire home. If you are planning on moving, start packing now – starting with the items that make this house your home. You never know when something is going to trigger a negative or painful emotion in a prospective buyer The kitchen is the center of the home and the most important space every prospective homebuyer will analyze. Put away the dishtowels, eliminate recipe boxes and cookbooks, clear the counters of excessive kitchen appliances and accessories. Clean your windows and windowsills so that any buyer who is interested can see out of the window and into the yard. Take down those curtains and install new wood or faux wood blinds.

Remove throw rugs and update the kitchen hardware for a fresh clean

The Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved the final map and secured agreements for a seven-lot subdivision off Madera de Playa Drive.

The supervisors’ 5-0 vote Aug. 23 allows the map for the 20.02-acre subdivision between Finn Circle and Calle Cabrillo to be recorded while the security agreements will ensure the completion of the required infrastructure. The agreements cover completion of road, water, sewer and other infrastructure improvements but do not require completion of the homes or other lot improvements themselves; the infrastructure improvements must be completed within 24 months unless a time extension is granted.

The county supervisors approved the project’s tentative map in September 2002. A tentative parcel map

becomes a final map after all conditions of the tentative map, other than those for which permits cannot be issued until a final map is recorded, are fulfilled. A final map is required for grading and building permits. The conditions of a final map include secured agreements to ensure that the infrastructure will be built and that payment for labor and materials used

the bedroom showcases the natural light that enters.

In the bathroom, add a new shower curtain and liner with coordinating towel sets. Remove all of your cosmetics and other personal hygiene items from the counter top. If you have an over-the-toilet storage cabinet, you should remove it and add a coordinating piece of artwork instead. If you have any ‘personal’ items you don’t want anyone to see, put them ina drawer and not a cabinet that buyers will be looking through.

Follow these general suggestions and you’ll be on your way to having your home sold to a motivated and qualified buyer who is tired of looking at worn out, over-cluttered and dated homes found in today’s real estate market. For a more detailed analysis, be sure to consult with your REALTOR before you’re ready to list your home for sale.

contemporary look.

Take the time to organize your cabinets. If a prospective buyer cannot see the back of your cabinets, they’ll think there is not enough adequate cabinet space.

It’s a good idea to start packing the non-essentials to free up the room.

Closets are another area where buyers will study. Again, you’re moving so it’s OK to pack up your seasonal clothes and make room in the closets. The trick about clear storage containers is, it allows the prospective buyer to see the back of the closet which subconsciously tells them that there is adequate closet space.

How to properly maintain and clean residential drain-lines Ever get frustrated when you wash your dishes or brush your teeth and the sink keeps filling up and drains slowly? There is a reason why this happens. In fact, there could be multiple reasons.

Today, we are going to address one particular reason for slow-draining drains: grease and grime.

Over the years, grease and grime stick and harden to the walls of the drain pipes, creating “build-up.”

This build-up reduces the actual circumference size of your drain line. Which means that the volume of water that usually flows down the drain line has now become minimized, resulting in the slow draining process.

A lot of homeowners think: this is an easy fix. They can drive to the nearest hardware store and

a chemical reaction that will eat a hole through the drain line. So now the quick $10 fix just turned into a $30,000 nightmare. If you have cast iron, galvanized or other metal drain systems, please be very cautious as to what you use to clean your drain lines.

Grease and Grime Build Up – Kitchen Drain Courtesy photo

purchase a $10 bottle of dran-o and the problem is fixed for a few months. Dra-NO is the worst thing a homeowner can put down a drain (if your home drain plumbing system is made of a metal pipe system). Why? Dran-o is a chemical reacting agent that has acid in it to break down and disintegrate the grease and grime. Over time, the acid and the metal pipe create

How should I properly maintain and clean my drain lines: The best thing that you can do to make sure that your drain lines continue to flow properly is to be careful what you put down the drain. For instance, grease, soup and vegetable peels should be thrown away in the trash. In the

bathroom, make sure hair, wipes and other feminine products do not go down the drain. You can also fill up your sinks with hot water and dump down the drain line as often as once a month. This loosens any grease to help make its way down the line.

Have a licensed plumbing contractor come out and hydro-jet the main drain line once per year. This will clean out all the grease and grime and flush the system. Drain lines are like a human’s stomach and body; they can only hold so much at one time. And if we put greasy foods in our bodies, our arteries become clogged and they

have to be cleaned out. Doctors tell us (briefly) if we just eliminate greasy foods, our arteries won’t become clogged. Same goes for the drain system; if we limit the amount of grease and food that goes down the drain and put only hot water and soap, then it is less likely to have clogged drains from grease and grime build-up and a plus is that the life expectancy of our drain lines will be greater too.

That’s A Wrap: Check out our Facebook page for information on how to keep up on plumbing maintenance around your home before it’s too late.

American Plumbing Heating & Air Conditioning offers A plus service 24/7 Tom Ferrall TFERRALL@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Jessie Quinonez doesn’t need to brag about his company, American Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning. Others do it for him.

American Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning, which services North San Diego and Southwest Riverside counties, has received an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau (BBB) for nine consecutive years.

“We also have great reviews online – Yelp, Google and Angie’s List,” said Quinonez, who encourages people to research the familyowned business he started in 2001.

A recent peek at Yelp reviews for American Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning revealed several five-star ratings (the site’s top score) from people who used the company in the past few months.

The most recent Google reviews also gave the business a top-rating of five stars. A look at Angie’s List yielded more positive comments, such as “excellent service” and “very neat, clean and professional.”

Quinonez said the top rating from the BBB and the glowing customer reviews are simply the result of his team doing a first-class job in a professional and friendly manner.

“We do the job right the first time and we pay attention to detail,” said Quinonez. “We respect people’s homes. Basically, we treat people the way we would like to be treated.

Sixty to 70 percent of our calls are repeat business and referrals.”

Quinonez added that American Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning handles the full spectrum of residential service and repair calls.

“We have factory-trained technicians that can do anything from a small repair to a re-pipe of a house,” said Quinonez. “The same thing with HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) – we can replenish the entire HVAC system and ducting.”

Quinonez said his technicians – all of whom passed a thorough background check that included drug testing before being hired – are constantly improving their skills.

“They go once a year to training school for code changes and things like that, and they also get refreshers on certifications that they hold,” said Quinonez.

He added that the technicians are ready to come to the rescue at any time of day or night.

“We have emergency service,” said Quinonez. “We’re standing by 24/7.”

The extra-charge for a middleof-the-night service call? Zero. Zip. “We charge the same rate for emergency calls as regular calls,” said Quinonez.

Quinonez grew up in Oceanside and graduated from MiraCosta College before attending schools that specialized in plumbing, heating and air conditioning. He worked for three plumbing companies – including a pair that “were pretty big” – before opening his own business and vowed that his company would always offer affordable rates.

“Some of the big companies have huge overhead,” said Quinonez.

“We’re a family business and offer very reasonable rates. Compared to others, we’re very reasonable for sure.”

American Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning provides free estimates as well as financing options.

The company also offers specials, such as a “new customer discount” on select services.

American Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning has an office in the River Village Plaza in Bonsall. For more information about the company or for service, call (760) 731-7000, (858) 7595325, or (951) 587-6883, or visit AmericanPlumbingHvac.com.
