Volume 50 - No. 07

By Pete Peterson

He came to lying in puke and piss on the hardwood floor of his den. It took him a minute to figure out where he was. How he got there, he did not know. His head felt ready to explode. His eyes ached. He shivered in rancid sweat soaked tee shirt. He struggled to his feet, saw his trousers were urine stained, that he wore a shoe on one foot, and nothing on his other foot. His heart banging, he stumbled into the bathroom, splashed cold water on his face and peeked at the unshaved The Paper - 760.747.7119

stranger in the mirror.

“You were supposed to be dead by now,” he said.

Nausea swept over him. He dropped to his knees, hugging the commode and retched, spewing green bile and blood into the stool.

After maybe fifteen minutes, he stood weak and dizzy. He heard footsteps in the hall. He didn’t want his daughters to see him this way as they left for school. He tossed his trousers into the closet and pulled on running shorts. He’d pretend he

was going for a jog. He reached for his bottle to take a swig and stop his hands from shaking. That’s when he noticed the pile of glass in the corner, a broken bottle on top of it.

He staggered to the closet, pulled a fifth of Evan Williams Black Label from the case, twisted off the top and took a long slug. Usually, he’d feel a rush of well-being, a feeling of relief course through his body, blocking his memory and stilling the popcorn thinking that peppered his mind. Now, he felt nothing. No

relief. No feeling of well-being.

Nothing.

He heard his girls giggling in their room. His beautiful curly-headed, freckled face, black-eyed daughters. When he heard other voices, he realized, school was out, not just starting. He reached for the doorknob, He’d greet them, tell them how important they are to him, let them know he loved them.

His oldest daughter’s voice stopped him. “Let’s go outside.

Our talking will disturb Daddy and

make him mad. He’s sick. Again.”

He heard them walk down the hall, past his den. He heard the living room door slid shut with a bang, loud as a jail house door. He took another pull from his bottle. The usual warm feeling, the dulling of his senses, failed to materialize. He let the bottle drop to the floor, turned and fell on his sofa, hot tears rolling down his face. *** Alcoholism has many faces and facets. Often what is heard on the subject is not only wrong, it’s dangerous. With this in mind, let’s turn to an expert to examine the real issues of alcoholism. This is important, since alcohol abuse caused over 88,000 deaths in 2015 alone, (and opioids killed another 42,000).

With so many conflicting reports emerging and new legislation, drug policies, penalties, and programs being continually trotted out, it is important to the public to re-conceptualize what we already know.

Psychologist Donald Lee, a former Oceanside resident, is an expert in the field of alcoholism and alcoholism recovery. He has seen the effects of alcoholism as an adult son of a practicing alcoholic, as a scholar and in his day-to-day practice. He offers straight forward advice based on his wide knowledge and experience.

Give Us This Day Our Daily Chuckle

This week, a compendium of wit, wisdom and neat stuff you can tell at parties. Enjoy!

I'll do almost anything to lose weight. But exercising and eating properly is where I draw the line.

If you had 100 monkeys typing at 100 keyboards you'd get Nancy Pelosi's notepad.

With Twitter, Facebook, and now Google Buzz, we have more ways than ever to say nothing to people we don't know.

All you need is love. And Valentine's Day is the perfect time to buy lots of needless, expensive things to prove it.

FUN GAME: Next time someone says "So much for global warming," push them into a snowdrift and run away.

In a wide-ranging interview conducted in the Escondido office of the National Association of Sales Consultants and Coaches, Mr. Lee addressed many aspects of alcoholism to a rapt audience. First question, “What is an alcoholic?”

LEE: Alcoholism and substance abuse - Alcohol/Substance Use Disorder - can be defined simply as: Continued use of drugs or alcohol in spite of serious health, family or economic consequences. Add to this academic definition these in the field observations - an alcoholic is a person who can no longer control and enjoy their drinking. Or, an alcoholic is a person who is either thinking about drinking or thinking about not drinking – trying to get sober.

LEE: Neuroscience paints a pretty clear picture of what happens to the addicted brain. Drugs (and alcohol is a legal drug), release a chemical called dopamine into the brain. This externally induced overflow of dopamine changes the midbrain’s response to other survival needs food, water, even procreation get bumped down the list of priorities, and the drug becomes Number One to the user. This person is now an addict.

Many others have found solace in learning that alcoholism is a 3-part disease consisting of an allergic reaction to alcohol that is exacerbated by a compulsion to drink, coupled with a spiritual void. This is pretty hard core for many – as real as it might be – but it is safe to say that an alcoholic can never safely drink again, just as the drug addict must maintain life time abstinence. And there’s the rub – the addict must find some way to live without using or drinking again. That’s why getting appropriate help is so important.

To those so afflicted, the crux of addiction is that the brain has been hijacked, creating physical and emotional cravings for the user’s substance of choice. The brain has literally been changed. And it doesn’t go back to normal on its own.

Just putting the “plug in the jug” – advice often offered to new alcoholics - isn’t enough. If not drinking or using were the answer, long-term addiction problems would not exist.

The brain needs repair. It doesn’t happen simply through abstinence.

Not for the real addict or alcoholic.

Dr. Drew Pinsky, famed addictionologist, says, “Every thought a newly recovering addict/alcoholic has for the first six months to a year, is a thought that is trying to make the individual return to using the substance.” Thankfully, he adds, “The Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous seems to fix those parts of the brain.”

NASC&C: How does one become addicted in the first place?

NASC&C: If a drunk, or an addict continues to use, what lies in store?

Why Use Drugs or Alcohol?

I always have the strangest dreams after eating Mexican food. I like to refer to them as "jallucinations".

I'm putting "Not Dying" on my Bucket List

Someday I'll look back on all of this, under oath, in front of a jury of my peers.

Cleanliness is next to godliness on the list of things I'm not interested in today.

The limerick is furtive and mean; You must keep her in close quarantine, Or she sneaks to the slums And promptly becomes Disorderly, drunk and obscene.

A bather whose clothing was strewed, By winds that left her quite nude, Saw a man come along, And unless we are wrong, You expected this line to be lewd.

The limerick's callous and crude, Its morals distressingly lewd; It's not worth the reading By persons of breeding It's designed for the vulgar and rude.

I’m at that awkward stage.

Between birth and death.

Teacher: Give me a sentence using the words, defense, defeat and detail.

Student: When a horse jumps over defense defeat goes before detail.

As I was lying in bed pondering the problems of the world, I rapidly realized that I don't really give a rat's behind. It's the tortoise life for me!

1. If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal.

2.. A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, and is fat.

3.. A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years.

4.. A tortoise doesn't run and does nothing, yet it lives for 450 years.

And you tell me to exercise??

I don't think so.

I'm retired. Go around me.

Now that I'm older here's what I've discovered: 1. I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

2. My wild oats have turned into prunes and all-bran.

3. I finally got my head together, and now my body is falling apart.

Lee: Alcoholism and drug addiction kills. Dead. Addiction to drugs and alcohol is a terminal condition. Pure and simple. But this addiction can be interrupted, and sobriety prevail if the drunk or addict gets help.

NASC&C: I hear from addicts and drunks that I only hurt myself. If I want to die drunk, that’s my business. True?

LEE: Not true. Every addict/alcoholic adversely affects, on average, seven other people.

NASC&C: So why is addiction so different from other terminal maladies of human existence?

LEE: This question is answered quite clearly in the 4th Edition of Alcoholics Anonymous. “If a person has cancer all are sorry for him and no one is angry or hurt. But not so with the alcoholic illness, for with it there goes annihilation of all the things worthwhile in life. It engulfs all whose lives touch the sufferer’s. It brings misunderstanding, fierce resentment, financial insecurity, disgusted friends and employers, warped lives of blameless children, sad wives and parents -anyone can increase the list.”

When an alcoholic or addict says, “I’m only hurting myself,” this is a lie they tell themselves to justify their actions but is one of many

Seeds from Washington's Tree Found Their Way to Valley Center - With the approach of George Washington's birthday on February 22, the Valley Center Historical Society has determined that a great walnut tree planted personally by the father of our country at Mount Vernon has a connection to Valley Center. The historic tree was planted by President Washington in 1779 at his famous home in northern Virginia, but seeds from the tree later found their way to several rural communities across the country, including Valley Center.

In 1932, to celebrate the Bicentennial of Washington's birth, seeds were shipped from Mount Vernon to a local farm and planted near the site of the famous Grizzly bear killing on Bear Valley Road near Guejito Road.

errors their thinking sets in motion by the midbrain’s single-mindedness of purpose, which for the addict is to get more drugs/alcohol.

It’s A Family Dis-ease

NASC&C: I also hear, alcoholism is a family disease. What is meant by that?

LEE: This is an area many misunderstand. First, because of the care, worry, empathy, fear, upset, frustration, love, and desire for the addict to get better by family members, they often fall in the trap of impaired judgment, becoming distracted by the actions of the actor, continually thinking about the alcoholic/addict until it becomes an allconsuming obsession, thus loved ones become just as ill as the addict, in the very same way. Over time the entire family dynamic can change. Alternating between codependent overindulgence and physical and emotional cutoff, the family desperately strives for some sense of normal homeostasis. But it never comes.

NASC&C: That’s a pretty bleak picture. Is there no hope for the alcoholic/addict or the family?

Lee: Yes, there is hope. Alcoholics Anonymous and 12-Step programs patterned after it, have helped millions of people recover from this seemingly hopeless condition of

Seeds from a tree planted by George Washington at Mount Vernon found their way to Valley Center in 1932.

The story of the walnut tree was written in a lengthy document dated 1939 by Edward Prince Haskell who purchased 640 acres in 1926 and developed Haskell Farms, a well-known grower of peaches.

Descendants of Haskell recalled the story about the George Washington walnut tree, but it was only recently that historians at the Valley Center History Museum were able to document the connection to President Washington. Local researchers discovered similar tales in multiple small towns in Indiana, Louisiana, Alabama and Texas, among others. While walnut trees can live for 150 years, the local tree produced walnuts for many years, but was lost in the late 1970s, according to a Haskell family member. Walnut trees at Mount

mind and body. Simply defined, we can look at alcoholism as an allergic reaction to alcohol. The allergy manifests as a compulsion to drink more and a mental obsession that guarantees it. This is why it can be so difficult a habit to break.

Professionals in the field of drug and alcohol addiction have known this for close to a century. What they didn’t know was how to beat it.

The famous psychiatrist Dr. Carl Jung suggested that an alcoholic must have “a complete emotional displacement and rearrangement.”

He called them, “vital spiritual experiences, where ideas, emotions, and attitudes which were once the guiding forces of the lives of these men are suddenly cast to one side, and a completely new set conceptions and motives begin to dominate them.”

The Gift of Desperation

NASC&C: What was the genesis, or beginning of a verified treatment program for drunks?

LEE: A newly sober stockbroker found himself broke, far away from home, and tempted to drink after six months of hard-won abstinence, he had a moment of clarity and realized he desperately needed to talk to another alcoholic. He intuitively knew he had to get out of his own head and try to help another suffering alcoholic. He called a pastor who knew of someone he could talk with.

Sixth Annual Coastal Bike Tour to Honor Late Bike Coalition Board Member - The San Diego Bike Coalition invites cyclists and adventurers of all abilities on a bike tour of the San Diego coastline that honors late board member Kerry Kunsman. The bike-touring weekend, Kerry's Ride Home, will take riders through a 66-mile route from Downtown San Diego to Carlsbad and back, over a span of two days. The sixth-annual bike tour's route travels through what would have been Kerry's ride home from the Canada border to the Mexico border. The van-supported ride will allow riders to adventure on bikes in a whole new way.

The two-day adventure invites riders to explore multiple coastal cities while pedaling at a leisurely rate. The Bike Coalition hopes the scenic and social bike tour introduces more people to the magic of commuting and traveling by bicycle, something Kerry believed anyone could do.

Seiberling who introduced him to a local doctor who had tried everything he could think of to get sober but could not. They met at her house and talked for hours.

Somehow, talking alcoholic to alcoholic, without the specter of shame or authority, the two identified with each other.

The broker, Bill W., came to stay with Dr. Bob’s family for a while.

As Bill W. and Dr. Bob continued their efforts to stay sober, they began to formulate some ideas about recovery. They agreed that their common problem was complete powerlessness over alcohol.

Their ideas were simple but not new. They realized a dependence on a Higher Power (however you conceive of Him/ or Her or It) was essential. Becoming honest with defects of character and past behaviors would allow one to be free from the bondage of the past and able to make amends for past offenses. These steps were formalized to include continuing inventory, prayer and meditation, helping others to recover from alcoholism, and striving to practice these principles in “all our affairs.”

After one last prodigious bender, Dr. Bob realized he had not been completely honest with himself and others. He had tried to hold on to his old ideas that others would judge him, or if they found out about his problem, he’d lose all his business. He was the first to realize what they say in recovery rooms, “You can’t save your ass and your

The following day, Sunday, February 23, the day will start at 8am at Pannikin Coffee & Tea, 510 N. Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas 92024.

Participants will pedal another 33 miles and conclude at Mission Brewery, 1441 L St., San Diego 92101, for a post-tour celebration and toast for Kerry's avid biking and life. The bike tour is limited to 18 participants, who must be 18 years old or older, and will be followed by an assist vehicle throughout the route. Interviews available by contacting Hector Zermerio at hestor@gomixte.com or 619.732.0789, x 342, to coordinate interviews.

face at the same time.”

Doctor Bob made the rounds to his patients and others in his community and made his amends to the best of his ability. “To his surprise he was warmly welcomed. He returned home that night exhausted but very happy.” He never drank again.

Bill and Bob met with a third alcoholic in the hospital and told him their stories. Alcoholic number three could tell from their demeanor that these men were sincere, knew what they were talking about, and most importantly, weren’t coming from a position of authority. Simply one drunk talking to another drunk.

After explaining their simple program of action, this man left the hospital for the last time, never to drink again, one day at a time. This was the beginning of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Over the ensuing 85 years, sobriety, serenity, and sanity have been returned to millions of people all over the world. Having a certain mindset and following a simple plan of action, lives and fortunes of countless individuals and their families have been made whole. If AA works so well, why then doesn’t everyone get sober?

The Big Book (Alcoholics Anonymous) suggests a possibility:

The Paper • Page 4 • February 20, 2020 City of Escondido and Palomar College Agree to Re-Open East Valley Parkway Library

Nine years ago the city of Escondido shut down the East Valley Parkway Branch Library in what was seen as a controversial and unnecessary move.

The City Council argued that in a recession the library branch was simply not affordable.

The city now seeks to mend that fence by having entered into an agreement with Palomar College District to promote the library services already available to the public at the college’s Escondido Education Center on E. Valley Parkway near Midway Drive.

The Escondido Library Foundation has agreed to provide funding of $25,000 to purchase new furniture to improve the comfort of the newly opened library facility.

The signing of the Memorandum of Understanding, which was approved last month by the college district’s directors, triggers a funding commitment of $25,000 from the Escondido Library Foundation, which will be used to purchase new furniture to improve the comfort and usability of the Ernest J. Allen Library.

Other improvements that the college will make include a redesigned layout of shelving and service

desks to improve the functionality of the library space, improved WiFi capabilities, and new signage on the campus directing people to the library.

The closure of the East Valley Branch of the public library in 2011 was very controversial. Thousands signed petitions and some claimed that the city was discriminating against its Latino population, much of which is concentrated in the eastern part of the city and used the branch regularly. The council justified the closure saying it was simply a luxury the city couldn’t afford during tough financial times.

When Paul McNamara replaced Mayor Sam Abed following the 2018 election, one of the first things he did was to begin discussions about an East Valley library.

“It’s a no-brainer,” Councilman John Masson said. “It’s one of those things we should have done years ago.”

“One of the most notable heartaches I ever had as an elected official in the city was the loss of the East Valley Community Branch library,” said Councilwoman Olga Diaz, who voted against the closure. "... I’m very proud to support this and very eager to see future advancements in how we collaborate and what kind of programming we do to make sure the community knows the building is available to them to access.”

Wedeking’s Bakery Location Now Knonw as Camila’s International Bakery

After 83 years Wedeking’s Bakery closed its doors in November of 2018. Today, a new bakery has begun its legacy, hopefully as brilliant as that of Wedeking’s. Owner Alejando Diaz says Camila’s Bakery will serve Mexican, American, Italian and French pastries and desserts. Located in the same location on East Valley Parkway and Elm Street, the bakery is named after the owner’s daughter, Camila.

Diaz, a 36-year-old Escondido resident named the bakery after his 2year-old daughter, Camila, and he seeks to become as a beloved part of Escondido’s history as Wedeking’s. A native of central Mexico, Diaz worked for 16 years at Chico’s restaurant and Panaderia in San Marcos.

He and his staff seek to establish a reputation as both a beloved local bakery as well as an international themed bakery with breads and pastries reflective of many parts of the world.

Camila’s Bakery, Escondido’s new bakery is now open.

Alcohol hits lots of homes, including mine. Family members have had issues with alcohol for years and it is a constant battle to overcome the urge to drink.

“Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path. Those who do not recover are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this simple program. Usually men and women who are constitutionally incapable of being honest with themselves. There are such unfortunates.”

There are other challenges as well.

Many individuals, whether through early experience or temperament, have difficulty with developing a belief in a power greater than self.

The Big Book goes to great lengths to detail how many alcoholics came to AA as atheists or agnostics yet found a way to believe in a power greater than self. Sometimes it began with a realization that personal powerlessness itself means there must be some power greater than one’s self.

It has been the experience of many that when faced with the prospect of total destruction, leaning into the idea of a Higher Power is not such an onerous one.

Since that time in 1935, millions of alcoholics have found relief from this lethal condition. In addition, recovery for the family comes in the form of Al Anon and Al-a teen.

Both are patterned after Alcoholics Anonymous and uses the same 12step program. Their mission and The Righteous Brothers Concert - A Review

Congratulations to Pala Casino on booking The Righteous Brothers Concert this past Saturday!

Fantastic performance to a sold-out house!

We attended the concert and had a chance to meet Bill Medly and Bucky Heard backstage before the concert.

WOW! Bill Medley, at age 78, still has it ... big time! How he maintains the vocal range he does is unbelievable . . . one second he hits the high notes with a visceral, almost screaming high note, and the next he has a soft, deep baritone that lulls the senses into a pleasant, dreamy mode.

The man is not only a great singer but a great showman . . . he is a masterful player of the piano, conducts the band, carries on a repartee with the audience . . . and had the audience enraptured - including us.

As expected, we heard the classic Righteous Brothers songs from the 60’s and 70’s. Bucky Heard, Bill’s new partner, melted the hearts of the audience with his rendition of Roy Orbison’s “Crying.” The man has some pipes! Hit the high notes every bit as well as Orbison ever did, maybe better.

Pala Casino seems to have a sense

purpose is to help families and friends of alcoholics connect and support each other…to find hope and encouragement to live joyful, serene lives.

Many 12-step groups have sprung up for narcotics addiction, marijuana addiction, heroin addiction, crystal methamphetamine addiction, cocaine addiction, gambling addiction, sex addiction, tobacco addiction, and others.

A couple of important points may help explain why Alcoholics Anonymous can be so helpful: “AA’s steps are ‘reports of action taken rather than rules not to be broken under pain of drunkenness...nor commandments to be followed.’”

From A Member’s Eye View of Alcoholics Anonymous.

“AA's Twelve steps are a group of principles, spiritual in their nature, which, if practiced as a way of life, can expel the obsession to drink and enable the sufferer to become happily and usefully whole.” Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions.

percent of women in this group binge drink (five drinks per binge, on average). Recently, National Public Radio aired a segment regarding a woman in Mom’s Club, a membership program devoted to teaching the finer points of wine selection and consumption who realized she was drinking too much and decided to quit. She recounted this was not as easy as she thought, but with help, she was recovering.

Only after she’d stopped drinking did her menstrual cycle return to normal. The feature noted that often women who binge drink are more likely to have unprotected sex which increases the risk of unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.

In fact, women who drink while pregnant increase the risk of fetal alcohol syndrome, which can cause mental and physical birth defects.

Binge drinking dramatically increases the risk of sexual assault on women, especially those living in a college setting. Alcohol abuse disorder in women has increased by 83.7% between 2002 and 2013, according to a 2017 study sponsored by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA).

I hate to spew numbers, but it’s important to note that high-risk drinking, defined as more than three drinks in a day or seven in a week for women, is on the rise among women according to a 2017 study.

Death from liver cirrhosis rose in women from 2000 to 2013.

Drinking too much – on a single occasion or over time – can take a serious toll on your health.

NASC&C: Why does extensive alcohol consumption effect health so adversely?

LEE: Alcohol interferes with the brain’s communication pathways and can affect the way the brain looks and works. These disruptions can change mood and behavior, and make it harder to think clearly and move with coordination. It also interferes the function of one’s heart, may lead to arrhythmias – irregular heartbeat – as well as stroke and high blood pressure.

Almost everyone is aware that heavy drinking affects the liver that can lead to a variety of problems and liver inflammations including, steatosis or fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis, fibrosis and cirrhosis.

NASC&C: How about the Big C? Cancer. What’s the scoop there?

LEE: Based on many reviews of research studies, there is a strong scientific consensus of an association between alcohol drinking and several types of cancer. In its Report on Carcinogens, the National Toxicology Program of the US Department of Health and Human Services lists consumption of alcoholic beverages as a known human carcinogen. The research evidence indicates that the more

The nectar from the long-lasting blossoms attracts butterflies, honey bees and flocks of songbirds. I expected to see a vast garden of colours by now. But, all I see are these green rectangles."

St. FRANCIS: It's the tribes that settled there, Lord. The Suburbanites. They started calling your flowers 'weeds' and went to great lengths to kill them and replace them with grass.

GOD: Grass? But, it's so boring it’s not colourful. It doesn't attract butterflies, birds and bees; only grubs and sod worms. It's sensitive to temperatures. Do these Suburbanites really want all that grass growing there?

ST. FRANCIS: Apparently so, Lord.They go to great pains to grow it and keep it green. They begin each spring by fertilizing grass and poisoning any other plant that crops up in the lawn.

GOD: The spring rains and warm weather probably make grass grow really fast. That must make the Suburbanites happy.

alcohol a person drinks—particularly the more alcohol a person drinks regularly over time—the higher his or her risk of developing an alcohol-associated cancer. Based on data from 2009, an estimated 3.5 percent of all cancer deaths in the United States (about 19,500 deaths) were alcohol related, including head and neck cancers, esophageal cancer and liver cancer and breast cancer, many studies have consistently found an increased risk of breast cancer associated with increasing alcohol intake.

The Million Women Study in the United Kingdom (which included more than 28,000 women with breast cancer) provided a more recent, and slightly higher, estimate of breast cancer risk at low to moderate levels of alcohol consumption: every 10 grams of alcohol consumed per day was associated with a 12 percent increase in the risk of breast cancer. Alcohol consumption is with a modest increased risk of cancers risk of the colon and rectum. And researchers and medical authorities have long associated alcohol consumption with weakened immune systems as well as pneumonia, tuberculosis and diabetes. Booze often lingers in the body for days and a single episode of drinking can weaken your body’ s ability to ward off infections – often for 24 hours after getting drunk.

NASC&C: Going back to a previous question, I’ve heard AA described as a cult. What’s your take on that?

LEE: (Laughs). I’ve heard that. too.

In fact, it frequently comes up when working with newcomers. The best answer I can give comes from A Member’s Eye View of Alcoholics Anonymous, which answers the question. “If the blind lead the blind, shall they not both fall into the pit?”

The answer is strangely enough, “No”. Perhaps one who is a little less blind, or who can at least discern vague shapes and forms, can describe what he or she sees while the other one still lives in total darkness. Before the average alcoholic walks through the doors of his first A.A. meeting, he has sought help from others or help has been offered to him, in some instances even forced upon him.

But these helpers were always superior beings: spouses, parents, physicians, employers, priests, ministers, rabbis, swamis, judges, policemen, even bartenders. The moral culpability of the alcoholic and the moral superiority of the helper, was clearly understood. The overtone of parental disapproval and discipline in these authority figures is always present. So when a new drunk hears for the first time

ST. FRANCIS: Apparently not, Lord. As soon as it grows a little, they cut it sometimes twice a week.

GOD: They cut it? Do they then bale it like hay?

ST. FRANCIS: Not exactly, Lord. Most of them rake it up and put it in bags.

GOD: They bag it? Why? Is it a cash crop? Do they sell it?

ST. FRANCIS: No, Sir, just the opposite. They pay to throw it away.

GOD: Now, let me get this straight.

They fertilize grass so it will grow. And, when it does grow, they cut it off and pay to throw it away?

ST. FRANCIS: Yes, Sir.

GOD: These Suburbanites must be relieved in the summer when we cut back on the rain and turn up the heat. That surely slows the growth and saves them a lot of work.

ST.. FRANCIS:

You aren't going to believe this, Lord. When the grass stops growing so fast, they drag out hoses and pay more money to water it, so they can continue to mow it and pay to get rid of it.

GOD: What nonsense. At least they kept some of the trees. That was a sheer stroke of genius, if I do say so myself. The trees grow leaves in the spring to provide beauty and shade in the summer.

In the autumn, they fall to the ground and form a natural blanket to keep moisture in the soil and protect the trees and bushes.

It's a natural cycle of life.

ST. FRANCIS: You better sit down, Lord. The Suburbanites have drawn a new circle. As soon as the leaves fall, they rake them into great piles and pay to have them hauled away.

GOD: No!? What do they do to protect the shrub and tree roots in the winter to keep the soil moist and loose?

ST. FRANCIS: After throwing away the leaves, they go out and buy something which they call mulch. They haul it home and spread it around in place of the leaves.

GOD: And where do they get this

Protecting Our Data Privacy

Our personal data is valuable, needing secure protection in this digital age. In 2018, Governor Brown signed California’s Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), the toughest, most far-reaching data protection law ever passed in the United States. Though the law was passed in 2018, its provisions became effective January 1st of this year.

The CCPA grants Californians the right to request that businesses disclose any personal information collected about them, the categories and sources of the information, data on sales of that information to third parties, and the right to request deletion of personal data. The Act also grants consumers the right to opt out of the sale of their personal information, and prohibits businesses from discriminating against consumers for exercising those rights. Selling information about any consumer under age 16 is prohibited, unless specific authorization has been granted. In addition, if personal information is released due to a company’s failure to implement reasonable security measures, consumers will be able to sue. The Attorney General is charged with enforcing the CCPA, and just released modified regulations for enforcement, which

begins on July 1st.

This complex law also has its downside. According to a report by the Attorney General, 75% of California businesses will be impacted by the Act. Some of the requirements are burdensome, especially for small businesses, and the definition of what constitutes a “sale” is ambiguous. Estimates indicate that initial compliance costs for small companies with less than 20 employees would average $50,000, and could range up to $2 million for companies with more than 500 employees. The overall economic costs to implement CCPA could exceed $55 billion.

Legislative fixes and clarifications were discussed extensively last year, but stalled. More discussions are likely this year, but as is often the case in California, lawsuits and ballot initiatives are in the works.

Assembly Republican Leader Marie Waldron, R-Escondido, represents the 75th Assembly District in the California Legislature, which includes the communities of Bonsall, Escondido, Fallbrook, Hidden Meadows, Pala, Palomar Mountain, Pauma Valley, Rainbow, San Marcos, Temecula, Valley Center and Vista.

5th District Supervisor

Jim Desmond

We’ve all heard it, there’s a shortage of housing in San Diego County. Everyday families spend hours in their car, stuck in traffic as they make their way to and from work. Many of these folks not living in San Diego County. It’s a sad day when you realize your kids, many of whom are college graduates can’t afford to buy a starter home in this County. While there is a shortage of housing, there is NO shortage of government regulations. Young families, our veterans, our children and grandchildren, are being forced out of San Diego County, for the lack of housing. The permit process is a large cost to building homes and while some regulations are necessary for fire safety and code over time some regulations become outdated or overburdening, therefore increasing the cost of housing.

Last week, the Board of Supervisors voted on a plan to reduce regulations on building houses in San Diego County. The plan is designed to reduce regulations on landscape plans, grading plans, and the permitting process.

The plan allows certifications, by outside qualified licensed engineers, of minor grading plans, driveways and roads, while streamlining the process, saving time and money.

We have pushed our work force and

young families further and further away to more affordable areas such as Hemet and Temecula, which leads to more traffic congestion and emission. I want residents today and future generations, living, working and playing in San Diego County.

from the lips of another one suffering just like him, and this message is what happened to me and this is what I did, not a menacing rat-a-tat tat of “This is what you should do,” the message resonates.

I’m personally convinced that the basic search of every human being, from the cradle to the grave, is to find at least one place where one belongs, where one can stand stripped of all pretense or defense, and trust that those present will not hurt him or her, because they too are stripped of their pretense.

That’s what AA does, it gives each member a clear picture of the foibles of each member – what brought them to this moment and what they did to stop their drinking.

No dogma, no religion, no belief, no philosophy is necessary. Just what I did, and what you can do if you wish. Pure. Simple. The idea that alcoholism is a disease — is now no longer unique. However when one hears from the lips of another person their story, no reasonably intelligent person can quarrel with what has been said. This desire to stop drinking is the only requirement to being a member of AA. *** Perhaps it’s time to check back in on that poor drunk lying in the ‘prison cell of his own making,” crying while his two daughters played outside. After several gulps of top-quality bourbon, he felt no effects, no lessening of terror and dread. To the outside world, he was a success – he had a great job selling law books for a respected publishing house, he had a lovely wife, a beautiful home in a desirable location. His lack of self-esteem, his sense of never belonging could be dissipated by a double shot of bourbon. And one drink led to another until now he was crying on his sofa, his trousers wet with urine, his life that of complete and incomprehensible demoralization. He realized that if he was to live and he desperately wanted to do so, something worthwhile with his life, he had no option except to quit booze.

Forever.

He somehow managed to get dressed, to dial a phone with shaking hands, to scribble down the address of an AA meeting, to walk on unsteady legs into a group in his helpless condition and admit to himself and others, that he was powerless over alcohol. From that day to this, he has not had another drink and has taken his rightful place in society.

Historically Speaking

by Tom Morrow

Polio: It Kept Us Awake At Night

As children, growing up in the forties and fifties had its particular worries.

We had just gotten through a War and soon entered into another conflict -Korea. On the home-front the government kept reminding us the Russians could drop the bomb at any time.

Fear of “the bomb” taught us how to protect ourselves by diving under our school desks. But what really kept us awake at night was the fear of getting “Polio.”

Summers in Iowa brought on a wave of new polio cases, especially in the cities. Young victims were reported by the hundreds. Swimming pools seemed to be a common factor among those afflicted. Mom forbid my sister and me to go swimming. I was in junior high before I ever stepped into anything deeper than a bathtub.

Polio, short for “poliomyelitis,” or “infantile paralysis,” is an infectious disease caused by the “polio virus.” It is a muscle weakness resulting in an inability to physically move. This can occur over a few hours to a few days to a lifetime. The weakness most often involves the legs, but may less commonly involve the muscles of the head, neck and diaphragm.

In 1921, Americans became readily aware of polio when future New York governor and later President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was stricken. He never was able to walk again.

Throughout the 40s and 50s. Roosevelt established the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, a money-raising campaign to fight the disease. The “The March of Dimes,” was the primary fund-raiser.

While many victims fully recovered, up to 5 percent of children and 30 percent of adults died. Another 25 percent have minor symptoms such as fever and a sore throat, and up to 5 percent have headache, neck stiffness and pains in the arms and legs. Of course, we never heard of those cases.

Newspapers, especially, would run front-page articles with photos of kids in “iron lungs” or those trying to walk with braces on their legs, and/or using crutches.

In my little town polio hit one particular family hard. Of the family’s three children, all were victims with crippling result. First, the 12-year-old girl was crippled, and within a few months her two high-school aged brothers were victims. All three had to use leg braces and crutches. As far as I know, if they’re still alive they’re probably still crippled.

That family’s tragedy frightened all of us in school. Personally, knowing each of them was especially worrying.

Thankfully, no other students or town folk were victims.

Poliovirus is usually spread from person to person through infected food or water containing human feces and less

commonly from infected saliva. Those who are infected may spread the disease for up to six weeks even if no symptoms are present.

The disease may be diagnosed by finding the virus in the feces or detecting antibodies against it in the blood. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends polio vaccination boosters for travelers and those who live in countries where the disease is occurring. Once infected there is no specific treatment. In 2018, there were 33 cases of polio and 104 cases of vaccine-derived polio world-wide. This is down from 350,000 cases in 1988. In 2018, the disease was spread between people only in Afghanistan and Pakistan. As of last December, there have been only 125 cases of polio and 241 cases of vaccine-derived polio reported.

Poliomyelitis has existed for thousands of years. The disease was first recognized as a distinct condition in 1789, and the virus that causes it was first identified in 1908. In the 20th century it became one of the most worrying childhood diseases in the U.S. and Europe.

We had a sigh of relief when the first polio vaccine was developed in the mid-50s by Dr. Jonas Salk of La Jolla, and a few years later Dr. Albert Sabin developed his vaccine. The World Health Organization says vaccination efforts and early detection of cases has resulted in near-global eradication of the disease. The world-wide civic organization of Rotary International has contributed money each year in an effort of eradicate the disease worldwide. With Rotarians’ help, that task is close to realization. However, I doubt that polio will be completely stamped out.

Circa 1956, Dr. Salk’s vaccine was given to everyone in our school system, and, not taking any chances, a couple years later we all were given Dr. Sabin’s vaccine, which was soaked into a sugar cube.

We got the needle with Salk’s remedy.

As for Sabin’s vaccine, no doubt “Mary Poppins” took her que of helping “the medicine go down” by soaking it in a sugar cube. A sweet closure to more than a decade of being scared out of our wits. We all slept better.

Know What?

You could own this space. It’d be all yours. And over 20,000 readers each week would be able to read about what a nice person you are, and what a nice business you have.

It’d be a nice little investment.

Dear Editor:

Another great advice from you: I have used Escondido Pharmacy in the past and now one more plus for them.

If one is unable to find medical supplies any place else, try Escondido Pharmacy. I have had on order at another medical place (closer to my home) for the past two weeks, my husband said to me “Why don’t you try Escondido Pharmacy.” so..I did and lo and behold I was able to purchase three boxes of the item that I needed—and the owner was very helpful in locating them for me with a smile.

Thanks Mr. Editor.

More Friedrich Fan Mail

Letters to the Editor, c/o Lyle E. Davis, Publisher.

Hi. I'm a university student who hopes to graduate this year with all my friends. I seldom send fan mail.

I just don't have the time, nor the inclination to do so. Until now.

Back on January 18, 2018 I read my first story in your weekly publication titled "Women Scientists Erased from History Books." As a girl, that story hit me right in the gut. Because it was all true. I gave several copies to my friends. We all said it changed our lives and the way we think about things. On November 21, 2018, I read another life-changing story, this one called "Seniors Who Spend the Holidays Alone." I had just lost my grandfather to cancer. I was always close to him and always spent precious moments with him. That true cover story released me and gave me "closure." I was happy I made my grandfather's life special.

On November 14, 2019 I read "Pastors Who Lose Their Faith." Our pastor called it "A most liberating article that needed to be told." Again, I learned how we often run away from the truth. Running away never solved anything. That article made us all face a truth. And how we need the courage to face the truth. And never to abandon those

The $75 adoption fee for Chowder includes medical exams, vaccinations, neuter, and registered microchip. For more information call 760-753-6413, visit Rancho Coastal Humane Society at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas, or log on to SDpets.org.

Twist is a 10-year-old cat looking for a new home. This pretty girl is shy with new people, but very affectionate once she warms up. She has lived with other cats in her previous home. Twist would love a calm and quiet adult-only home where she can relax in a cozy nook. Meet Twist at our Escondido Campus to see if she’s the right kitty for you. Her adoption fee includes her spay, current vaccinations, permanent microchip identification, a certificate for a free veterinary exam and waived enrollment fee for medical insurance from PetFirst.

in their darkest hours. All of these articles were written by Mr. Friedrich Gomez. If anyone cannot see the range of brilliance, or the depth of insight, which these stories "mirror" back to us, then that person must have a stone in place of a human heart. I just heard of Mr. Gomez' sorrow. And it doesn't surprise me that there was such an outpouring of emails, calls, and expressions of love and condolences for him. My best friend, Jennifer Flannigan, met him back in December and I was so envious of her. I cried. After hearing of his recent and tragic loss, I cried without shame. I seldom send fan mail.

But I think God moved my heart to send this one. --

We’ve all heard it said “Time is money”, “Time is your Life”, etc.

Most of us have said things like: • There is not enough time in the day.

• I have no margin in my life.

• I’m busy, but don’t seem to get it all done.

I’m sure we all desire to make the best use of our time and accomplish that which is most important. From a faith perspective, God gives us time and wants us to “redeem the time” in our lives.

God (who is eternal) created time and lives outside of time. He even mentions that one day is like a thousand years to Him and a thousand years is like a day.

One of the interesting things about God’s time management is His cre-

ation of the Sabbath. It gives us an opportunity to reflect on our priorities and what’s really important.

Jesus addressed priorities when He said “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (Matthew 6:33).

If we fulfill our top priorities (which essentially should be our relationship with God and our relationship with people), everything else will take its place in our lives.

If we put other things before God… like things or money… we wind up with neither.

So, the place to start is to set our priorities. Find out what matters most in your life and don’t let it be pushed out by the “tyranny of the “urgent” that come at us every week.

The key is to keep the “first things first”.

It might be helpful to take some time and write down your goals and the assign them a value. Then, do the first things!

Escondido • Mayor Paul “Mac” Mcnamara Greetings Escondido,

Normally, I try to use this column to inform the readership or celebrate something about Escondido. Today I’m going to make an exception and talk about a political issue, namely, Measure A. Why, because I have been asked many times why am I supporting it, and because there is just too much misinformation about it being spread.

There isn’t enough space here to go into details, but I don’t think that is necessary. In my mind, the bottom line is this. The county general plan took 13 years to put together with lots of stakeholder input. It won an award. Why would we then turn it over to 5 individuals (the supervisors) to modify it as they see fit. Let’s face it, they are human beings just like us and subject to being influenced. With a simple 3/2 vote they could change the will of the entire county. It’s not smart. We’ve had Prop S in Escondido for decades which has similar controls as Measure A and it hasn’t done any of the harm people are predicting for Measure A. Let’s support it and keep the rural areas preserved for future generations.

Semper Fi, Mac

More Righteous Brothers Concert

Letters to the Editor: The Paper saved us from being "turned away" at the SOLD OUT Righteous Brothers concert which was held on Sat., Feb. 15, 2020 at the Pala Casino's Event Center!

How? Well, waaay before your wonderful cover story on the Righteous Brothers was written by Lyle E. Davis and published in The Paper on Feb. 6, 2020, there was an earlier cover story in The Paper titled "The Stars Line Up for 2020 at Pala Casino," written by Freidrick Gomez which was published earlier, back on January 2, 2020. On the front cover of Freidrick Gomez's story for The Paper was a photo of the Righteous Brothers (Bill Medley and Bucky Heard), along with two other upcoming Pala Casino stars, Dwight

Yoakam (scheduled for March 27, 2020) and magician Michael Carbonaro Live! (scheduled for April 15, 2020). Well, guess what? Since the Righteous Brothers were listed as the earliest stars that were listed in Gomez's cover story, we wasted no time in purchasing tickets for the concert! It sure does pay for us and our many friends to read The Paper!! And there's the proof of how it pays, right there! And I'll bet it's a super smart move for Pala Casino to advertise in The Paper as well. Like we said, The Paper saved us from being "turned away" from a SOLD OUT Righteous Brothers concert when we purchased early tickets back in January! Maybe those who "missed the boat" and were turned away will start reading The Paper from here on. After all, such public announcements are for our benefit. And that's gotta be a good thing.

God bless The Paper. It was a great concert!! And thanks Freidrick Gomez -- you gave us a "head start." -- The Maria Contreras-Hausman extended family & friends, Escondido, San

Plans To Stay Emergency-Ready

The City is committed to keeping the community safe, especially during an emergency. In addition to Vista’s Fire and Sheriff responders, city staff has also been trained as disaster service workers. While the City regularly holds drills to test emergency plans and ensure City of Vista employees are ready, residents should do the same. Devastating wildfires remind us that disaster preparedness starts with ourselves. Your family may not be together when disaster strikes, so it is important to plan in advance: how you will contact one another; how you will get back together; and what you will do in different disaster situations. The County of San Diego created an emergency app to better prepare and inform residents across the county about disasters. The Emergency App contains disaster preparedness information, interactive checklists to help you to create your emergency plan, build an emergency supplies kit, and when disaster strikes; the app will keep you informed with emergency updates, interactive emergency maps, and shelter locations. With the emergency app, the tools you need to plan, prepare, and respond in an emergency are right at your fingertips. Check ReadySandiego.org for more information on the app and preparedness plans.

PC and cars then and now

We’ve recently been discussing two conundrums. First, there are few if any benefits for small business and home users in switching from Win 7 to10, and second is the fact that most of us can’t benefit from the latest and greatest in CPU, memory and storage technologies. We’re forced to switch from Win7 to Win10 because Microsoft and the PC Industry no longer support Win7. The higher speeds and bigger storage don’t help us because they don’t affect what we do.

aren’t always helpful. A 1960 family sedan could go 120MPH and seat a family of five. Today’s family of five would not benefit from a car that goes 400MPH and seats seventy five people. It would benefit if the basic family car that cost $2,000 in 1960 cost only $200. Today’s basic family sedan costs over $20,000. Sure it is safer, more fuel efficient and has more features, but speed and capacity weren’t improved because it wasn’t needed.

Indeed many folks treasure these vintage cars proudly “Cruising Grand” in Escondido with their “classics.” While a vintage car is perfectly drivable, a vintage PC (over 15 years old) is valuable only as a curiosity and has no practical value.

One huge difference between PC and automobile technology is that major improvements in automobile technology have been incorporated within the car itself, not in the driving environment. For PCs, during the last decade the most dynamic technology has been in the PCs outside environment not within the PC. Internet and applications content has had the most impact on our day to day lives not the incremental enhancements of PC technology.

The average ten year old PC can do popular Internet and stand alone applications just as fast as a new one with ten times the speed and storage.

the average PC user experience in recent years, it has had significant impact in other areas. Cost and reliability stand out. Below are some price and performance comparisons 1995 to 2020 on the three most important components in your PC, the CPU RAM and the storage device.

1995 2020 Hard drive: size: 1.2 MB Size: 1.0TB Cost: $278 Cost: $65 Cost per GB: $231,574 Cost per GB: 6.5 cents Memory: size 1.0 MB Size: 16GB Cost $160 Cost: $60 Cost Per GB: $160,000 Cost per GB: $1.30 CPU: Pentium 100 speed 1.8 MIPS (million instructions per sec.)

AMD Ryzen 7 Speed 304,510

MIPS Over the years computer technology has driven down the costs and opened the door for Internet and applications technology. A major benefit of PC component and manufacturing technology especially in the past decade has been a dramatic improvement in reliability. Highly reliable, low voltage components and SSDs (solid state drives) mean the only moving parts in your desktop PC are the cooling fans. The high reliability and extended functionality often extends the useful life of a PC to a decade or more.

Our old PCs are living longer and the result has been sales of new PCs have declined each year for the past decade.

Next time we‘ll discuss where technology is taking the small business and home user.
