I suppose some of us men have at one time or another fantasized about running away and joining the French Foreign Legion.

Probably best to keep it as a fantasy as it is no walk in the park.

It’s the dark romance of the French Foreign Legion: haunted men from everywhere, fighting anywhere, dying for causes not their own.

The French Foreign Legion is one of the only Western military forces comprised mostly of foreign nationals. It was established nearly 200 years ago for the same reason Australia exists—to give society's dregs a fresh purpose in life, ideally one that took them as far away from home as possible.

The Legion will gladly send you to war to fight for a country you're barely acquainted with. In exchange, you get shipped off to God knows where and have a chance to reinvent yourself.

Currently it employs 7,286 enlisted men, including non-commissioned officers. Over just the past two decades they have been deployed to Bosnia, Cambodia, Chad, both Congos, Djibouti, French Guiana, Gabon, Iraq, Ivory Coast, Kosovo, Kuwait, Rwanda, and Somalia. Recently they have fought in Afghanistan, as members of the French contingent. There is no other force in the world today that has known so much war for so long. A significant number of the men are fugitives from the law, living under assumed names, with their actual identities closely protected by the Legion. People are driven to join

the Legion as much as they are drawn to it.

Since 1831, when the Legion was formed by King Louis-Philippe, more than 35,000 legionnaires have died in battle, often anonymously, and more often in vain.

The Legion was created primarily to gather up some of the foreign deserters and criminals who had drifted to France in the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars. It was discovered that these men, who were said to threaten civil society, could be induced to become professional soldiers at minimal cost, then exiled to North Africa to help with the conquest of Algeria.

Throughout history, the Legion has served as a second chance for people who have run out of bridges to burn. For those few willing and able to tough it out, a

brand new beginning and identity await, complete with a freshly minted French passport.

Enlisting in the French Foreign Legion

The French Foreign Legion accepts recruits from all over the world. The Foreign Legion’s recruiting centers have to be open 24/7/365 (yes, all year long) officially. However, whatever is stated on the Legion’s official website, enlisting in the Legion during Monday to Friday between 08:00 AM – 05:00 PM will be a good option for you. The smaller recruiting centers might be closed during nights.

You can be enlisted in mainland France only! There is no other way.

Information source: Légion étrangère, the Legion’s official recruiting website What to Expect

The motto of the Legion is Legio Patria Nostra. ‘The Legion is our fatherland.’ This means they will accept you. They will shelter you.

They may send you out to die.

Women are not admitted. Service to the Legion is about simplifying men’s lives. It was about do not ask questions, do not make suggestions, do not even think of that. Forget your civilian reflexes.

War has its own logic. Be smart.

For you the fighting does not require a purpose. It does not require your allegiance to France.

After you arrive in the selection center in Aubagne, the training begins; even if you haven't been formally accepted. Everything you've brought with you, including the clothes on your back, are put into storage. You change your civilian clothing for a blue legion track suit and a t-shirt. You are provided everything you'll need for your stay in Aubagne, from razors to underwear. You are working from sun-up to sundown. Cooking in the mess, cleaning the offices, painting, etc.

Hazing at this point is normal and isn't too bad. However, more than 80% of the people that walked through the gates are now gone. Some are lost due to failure of a test or exam, and some are lost due to self-election to "go civil."

Assuming you pass all of these test and exams, you go "rouge."

This means that you are issued all of the kit that you will need for basic training at Castelnaudary, cut off all of your hair and begin to wear most of the daily uniform of the legion; black military boots and camouflage tops and bottoms.

The only thing missing at this point is the béret vert (green beret). Once "rouge," you begin to learn some of the basic chants of the Legion (these are an impor-

tant part of the Legion) and the Code of Honor. Also, once "rouge," the hazing begins in earnest.

Attrition continues and about 15% of those that originally came through the gates are typically lost; those that are lost are now almost exclusively through selfelection to "go civil."

At the end of your two week period as "rouge" in Aubagne, you are taken to the 4th Regiment in Castelnaudary. The 4th is the Legion's formal training regiment, where you will be spending three out of your four months in basic training, and where you will make your transition from engagé volontaire (voluntary enlistee) to Légionnaire. There are generally 25-45 men per section.

Your first month in basic training is spent at your company's Farm.

This is not a farm in the traditional sense, although most of them are formerly working farms converted to housing and training Légionnaires. This is where you truly begin your military training, your FAMAS (assault rifle) never leaving your side. You will do everything from learn French in a classroom environment, run many kilometers, do many pushups & situps, perform increasingly long hikes with increasingly weighted packs, to learning basic military tactics and weapons shooting and handling.

Hazing at this point is constant.

(Often, corporal punishment is administered. Hitting and kicking of recruits is common and expected.) There will be many nights without sleep, and many meals missed. You are never alone and are constantly watched for even the tiniest mistakes. The consequences for mistakes are severe and painful; physically, psychologically or both. The environment is initially set up to ensure failure. You are broken down individually - both mentally and physically - slowly being built back up with larger and larger successes as a group. This creates cohesion and camaraderie in a group as diverse as is possible.

Your time at the Farm culminates in your biggest success: the Kepi March, a grueling two day march with everything you have strapped to your back. At the finish waits Castelnaudary and your Kepi Blanc. Attrition at this stage in the training is almost exclusively through self-election to "go civil" and makes up about 10% of the group that came to Castelnaudary.

Once the ceremony for your Kepi Blanc is over, and you're officially a Légionnaire, you continue with basic infantry training for the next three months. Discipline, weapons, tactics, and physical fitness. Your section continues it's marches of increasing length, ultimately reaching the final Raid March. Towards the end of your four months in basic training, you begin to take tests.; shooting tests, French tests, physical tests, etc. Depending on your performance in these tests, you are ordered within your section as to "desirability." This ranking is extremely important, as it dictates the order in which you are allowed to state a preference for

what Regiment to which you'd like to be posted. Your section leader (usually a French-born Lieutenant) and Company Captain will use these rankings, along with your preferences and the needs of the Legion, to decide where you will be going after Castelnaudary.

A former Legionnaire says: “These months at the Farm and Castelnaudary are some of the toughest, physically and psychologically, that you will encounter in the Legion. In short, they are hell in the moment, but fantastic memories. They are, as already stated, designed to break you down; I have never seen it not succeed. Everything you have, mentally and physically, has been taken from you and is slowly replaced only by what the Legion wishes you to have. Those that stick around and make it through are transitioned from a civilian off of the street to a lean, strong, hungry predator in only four months.

To do this, the change from civilian life is drastic and the training extremely hard. Make no mistake about it; the Legion selects and trains its men to be exactly the hard-as-nails, enduring, SOBs they get.”

As for noteworthy memories from basic training, I have many. My favorite publicly-shareable is of a Caporal-Chef who embodied the public image of the Legion. He was just under 50 years old, drunk every morning by 10am on cheap Legion beer, smoked a pack a day, and had joined before he was 20. On the run from the law, he never took back his real identity and, while not existing in the "real world", was legend inside of the Legion; everyone knew him & the exploits for which he had become notorious. His chest was literally a wall of medals, and he had been in nearly every conflict/war with the Legion in the last 30 years. The man spoke at least 5 languages fluently and, as far as I know, no one but the paper-pushers ever knew from what country he originally came.

He could out run, out push-up or pull-up any challenger and, despite his constant drinking, never once missed a shot. Despite being a total badass, he could be your best friend; playing perfectly his role as a junior-ranked NCO with years of authority to help out a young Légionnaire in his moment of need.

I swear, when they came out with those "Most Interesting Man in the World" commercials, I thought of this Caporal-Chef. I will never forget this man as long as I live.”

A Little Poem . . .

Another year has passed And we're all a little older.

Last summer felt hotter And winter seems much colder.

There was a time not long ago When life was quite a blast.

Now I fully understand About 'Living in the Past' We used to go to weddings, Football games and lunches..

Now we go to funeral homes And after-funeral brunches.

We used to have hangovers, From parties that were gay.

Now we suffer body aches And wile the night away.

We used to go out dining, And couldn't get our fill.

Now we ask for doggie bags, Come home and take a pill.

We used to often travel To places near and far.

Now we get sore asses From riding in the car.

We used to go to nightclubs And drink a little booze.

Now we stay home at night And watch the evening news.

That, my friend is how life is, And now my tale is told.

So, enjoy each day and live it up...

Before you're too damned old!

After a three hour executive (closed) session the board voted to close the downtown campus of the Palomar Medical Center hospital because they claimed there were insufficient funds to make the needed major infrastructure improvements.

“I can assure you first and foremost as I’ve said throughout the entire process, was this the right recommendation for the right reasons at the right time?

Yes,” Robert Hemker, president and CEO of Palomar Health said.

The services will be consolidated to the Palomar Medical Center on West Citracado Parkway and to Pomerado Hospital in Poway.

Inpatient rehabilitation and labor and delivery services will move to the new Palomar Medical Center.

Hemker said some staff will be moved to the other hospitals where there is a match and provide training to those who need it to continue on at the new hospitals. Not all of the 850 staff members, however,will be relocated.

Hospital executives said the closure could save Palomar Health $20 million a year.

The board spent $1 billion on the Citracado campus, which was opened in 2012. This following a vote in 2004 where voters approved Proposition BB, which authorized $500 million in bonds.

While there were many critics of the decision to close the facility, those in leadership positions throughout North County generally, though reluctantly, agreed with the decision.

Thanks to improved credit ratings the Vallecitos Water District announced it has refinanced its bond debt and saved ratepayers $3.47 million in the process.

This impacted Peter heavily.

Peter kinda had the appearance of the “poor little rich kid.” He came from a family of wealth and prestige . . . yet hardly ever saw his dad. His mom had died as a suicide, when Peter was only 11. Never met his sister, Jane Fonda.

Never wanted to. Still don’t. I despise her. To my mind, she is a traitor.

Peter was nothing like his sister. I liked him.

His name helped him get into show biz. I remember one play he was cast in: “Oh Dad, Poor Dad, They Hung Him in the Closet and I’m Feeling So Sad.”

‘Letters to the Editor’ Cont. from Page 4 Mark Twain from the Author

Glad you enjoyed the Mark Twain article. I enjoy doing things differently -- not only in the way I dress -- but in the way I write stories/articles. I enjoy traversing "The Road Not Taken" as a writer and that means presenting a fresh perspective on a common subject. Mark Twain was an over-ripe apple just waiting to be bitten into -- unfortunately, nobody took the opportunity to present him in a more unique lighting. And that's sad.

Past to present, writers and biographers (for the most part) simply used Mark Twain merely as a 'hat rack' on which to hang his early life and funny quips on. That's okay. But it was 'done to death' and then some. I just preferred to keep him fresh, invigorating, and alive.

When I was guest-lecturing at UCSD on freelancing, and writing in general, I told my students (who were often older than I) that sometimes we (writers) need to go out on a limb, and push away from the shoreline, and navigate uncharted waters. In short, be brave, take chances -- BE ORIGINAL, and experience "The Road Not Taken."

I did the above when researching my "The Historical Jesus," and "Harry Houdini," "Mothers of Invention," "Mary of Nazareth," and so on. I'm not certain how my

Mark Twain article will sit with the American public, or the Christian community in particular. For one thing, it is not exactly a 'promo ad' for Christianity, or its deity. And who knows, the general public may storm my tiny little abode, like villagers holding flaming torches (move over Joan of Arc, I'm a comin').

But, seriously, I think Mark Twain's private life needed to be told, warts and all. And that's the way he, himself, wanted it, in the end. But as previously stated, the general public (Christians included) may wish to remain in a warm, comfortable placenta full of amniotic fluid, in regards to Mark Twain and, therefore, they may be uncomfortable and afraid of new facts, regarding his life.

But, as a former Navy man (four years, radar man, on guided-missile destroyer), I said, "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!"

Besides, like Twain, I'm an iconoclast. To this day, Twain teaches me much. He is never far from me. Since a child of nine, I have never stopped being in love with Mark Twain. He was the one person in my life that made me wish to become a writer. And through his every written word, he still encourages me, to this very day.

I acquiesced to write this article about him for The Paper, only if I thought it was my very best effort. And to make it fresh. And new. And emotionally real. And I

Road Repairs: No New Taxes Required

Providing a reliable transportation network is one of the primary responsibilities of state government. The budget for the 2015-2016 fiscal year increases spending by $7.5 billion, and includes funding for new social/welfare entitlements. At the same time however, the new budget largely ignores basic infrastructure projects, which include longdelayed highway upgrades.

According to the estimates by the Southern California Association of Governments, future transportation improvements in Southern California alone are estimated at more than $500 billion over the next 20 years. Obviously then, providing the funding necessary to upgrade the state’s highway system has not been a top priority for many in Sacramento.

To deal with this crisis, Governor Brown has requested a special legislative session; calls for increased taxes are likely. In response, I am joining with my Republican col-

leagues to introduce proposals that fund badly-needed highway projects -- without raising taxes.

These proposals include directing unallocated cap-and-trade dollars toward highway projects, which would generate about $1 billion. Millions more would become available through elimination of redundant Caltrans jobs and increased use of private contractors. Another $1 billion could be generated by re-allocating Vehicle Weight Fees, used to offset highway damage caused by heavy trucks, back to road projects as originally intended.

According to a recent study, California has the second-highest fuel tax in the nation, though we rank 49th in road quality. Obviously, our spending priorities have become entirely unrealistic. Increased revenues have led to new entitlements and bigger government, but essential infrastructure upgrades have been delayed, providing yet another excuse to raise taxes.

The Currents War; Edison vs. Tesla

Today, when you hear the name “Tesla,” the popular electric-powered automobile might come to mind. But it’s an earlier electrical invention that surrounds our daily lives, which touches nearly every aspect of world-wide society: Alternating Current (AC) electrical power. The man responsible for this was Nikola Tesla.

Tesla was born July 10, 1856, in Serbia. In 1884, he immigrated to America and became a noted inventor, dealing specifically with electricity.

After arriving in America, Tesla went to work for Thomas Edison.

20. IT WAS A MIRICLE WHEN JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD AND MANAGED TO GET THE TOMBSTONE OFF THE ENTRANCE. 21. THE PEOPLE WHO FOLLOWED THE LORD WERE CALLED THE 12 DECIBELS. 22. THE EPISTELS WERE THE WIVES OF THE APOSTLES.

It is a slow day in a little Greek Village. The rain is beating down and the streets are deserted.

Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.

On this particular day a rich German tourist is driving through the village, stops at the local hotel and lays a €100 note on the desk, telling the hotel owner he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night.

‘Chuckles’ Cont. on Page 8

The popular inventor offered Tesla the task of redesigning Edison’s Direct Current (DC) generator. Tesla said he could redesign the inefficient DC motor and generators, making an improvement in both service and economy.

Edison remarked, "There's fifty thousand dollars in it for you … if you can do it." This has been noted as an odd statement from a man known for his stinginess.

After months of work, Tesla fulfilled the task and asked for the promised $50,000 payment.

Edison replied he was only joking.

"Tesla, you don't understand our American humor."

Instead, Edison gave Tesla a $10 a week raise over his $18 per week salary. Tesla promptly resigned.

Tesla found financial backing and began setting up laboratories and companies to develop a range of electrical devices. He patented his AC induction motor and transformer, and licensed them to George Westinghouse. Tesla’s work in the formative years of electric power development was involved in a corporate alternating current/direct current "War of Currents" as well as various patent battles with Edison.

(Edison claimed Tesla developed AC while working for him. The courts found in Tesla’s favor, but

The owner gives him some keys and, as soon as the visitor has walked upstairs, the hotelier grabs the €100 note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher.

The butcher takes the €100 note and runs down the street to repay his debt to the pig farmer.

The pig farmer takes the €100 note and heads off to pay his bill at the supplier of feed and fuel.

The guy at the Farmers' Co-op takes the €100 note and runs to pay his drink bill at the tavern.

The pub owner slips the money along to the local prostitute drinking at the bar, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer him "services" on credit.

The hooker then rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill to the hotel owner with the €100 note.

The hotel proprietor then places the €100 note back on the counter so the rich traveller will not suspect anything.

At that moment the traveller comes down the stairs, picks up the €100 note, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, pockets the money, and leaves town.

No one produced anything.

No one earned anything.

However, the whole village is now out of debt and looking to the

not without a series of lawsuits.

The “War of Currents” developed between Westinghouse and Edison. The battle started out as a competition between the two rivals’ lighting systems with Edison holding all the patents for DC and the incandescent light.

Westinghouse used his own patented AC system developed by Tesla. They were to power arc lights as well as incandescent lamps. Westinghouse used a bulb of a slightly different design to get around the Edison light bulb patent.

The competition was won by Westinghouse and resulted in Edison finally taking Tesla’s AC power seriously. In 1890, Edison’s company pursued AC development. The problem for Direct Current is it services a very limited area compared to Alternating Current, which take far less generated energy, with less of a chance of causing a fire.

By 1892, Thomas Edison was no longer in control of his own company. It was consolidated into the conglomerate now known as General Electric, which began developing its own AC delivery system.

Tesla’s interests moved on from AC power and began pursuing his

ideas of wireless lighting and electricity distribution in his highvoltage, high-frequency power experiments in New York and Colorado Springs, and, in 1893, made early pronouncements on the possibility of wireless communication with his devices. In his lab, Tesla built a wireless controlled boat, one of the first ever exhibited.

Tesla was renowned for his achievements and showmanship, eventually earning him a reputation in popular culture as an archetypal "mad scientist." Tesla died Jan. 7, 1943.

Tesla’s work fell into relative obscurity after his death, but in 1960 the General Conference on Weights and Measures named the SI unit of magnetic flux density the Tesla in his honor. Tesla’s name has experienced a strong resurgence of interest since the 1990s.

As most folks know, I'm a big fan of good restaurants and excellent wait staff.

The waitress who took my order is not high on my admiration list.

I ordered two scoops of vanilla ice ream with chocolate syrup.

When she brought it to the

table it looked like there was more chocolate syrup on the plate than in the ice cream container; plus, chocolate syrup had dribbled down the sides of the container so when I held it I got syrup on my fingers.

Had I been the waitress I would not have delivered that to the table. I would have been embarrassed and would not want to treat a patron like that.

answer was "It has only to do with the respect with which we regard one another, the dignity of man, the love of our culture.

It has to do with: Are we good painters, good sculptors, great poets? I mean all the things we really venerate in our country, and are patriotic about. It has nothing to do with defending our country except to make it worth defending."

I am sure that there are many who will consider any support of this museum to be of low priority. This attitude misses the bigger picture of enriching our lives by teaching us something about the universe of which we are a part. That should be a very high priority indeed.

median income. Developer Impact fees are collected when new building permits are issued, these fees are invested in community upgrades to absorb increased population resulting from new development. Utility project upgrades are primarily funded by rate payers in the form of monthly water and sewer payments. Gas tax and Transnet funding comes back to Escondido for road improvements. Funding sources fluctuate annually so it could take several years to fully fund major projects.

The CIP budget is updated over several months by City staff and eventually reviewed and approved by the City Council. Staff estimates the available resources and allocate the funding to eleven different categories including: Community Services, Library, Parks and Recreation, Public Art, Public Works.

Why I Went Back to Church

Over the past two decades, sociologists have discovered some startling things about going to church. Here are six of them:

Those who attend church regularly . . .

1. Live 7 1/2 years longer than those who don’t.

2. Are 56% more likely to have an optimistic life outlook than those who don’t.

3. Are 27% less likely to be depressed.

4. Are 35% less likely to get divorced.

5. Have higher average levels of commitment to partners, higher levels of marital satisfaction,

I dropped out of church years ago. Lots of people do.

Fortunately, I had friends who cared enough to reintroduce me to church. I felt awkward walking into a church that first time.

But to my surprise, I liked it.

People were friendly. They sang pretty well. I learned something from the sermon. So I went back the next Sunday.

What I learned at that church began changing my life. During the years I dropped out of church, I did lots of fun things on Sundays, but none of them prepared me to be a better person on Monday. Few of them introduced me to the quality of people I met in church. And none of them helped me to know God better.

What about you? What are all your Sundays adding up to? Is it possible that you are only one good decision away from enjoying one of the greatest things there is to enjoy in life? Maybe it’s time to decide to become part of a local church. Choose one, and start attending. It’ll change your life.

San Marcos • Mayor Jim Desmond City adopts Balanced Budget

The San Marcos City Council passed and adopted a $66.9 million general fund budget for Fiscal Year 2015-16, which began July 1. The general fund pays for important services such as fire protection, law enforcement, street and park maintenance, recreation services, land use planning and general administration.

Overall, the City’s finances remain steady. Despite the mixed pace of economic recovery, sales and property tax—which account for 50 percent of general fund revenues—have increased by more than four and eight percent, respectively.

Setting a new precedent, City Council approved a change to the General Fund reserve policy that reduces reserve levels from 50 percent to 40 percent. This move makes funds available to address the city’s backlog of infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement projects.

The budget also sets aside 2.6 percent of the budget for long-range maintenance of City buildings, roads and sidewalks, lighting and storm drains, parks and landscaping, and equipment and vehicle replacement.

San Marcos is positioned well and has maintained a slow and steady fiscal approach moving forward while taking steps to control future costs.

Richard White Sr. He was traveling westbound on Mission Avenue. Upon noticing the family he slowed down, police said. White told police he didn't see a child as he slowed.

When the girl suddenly ran out, Lopez said, the driver was unable to stop or take evasive action to avoid striking the child.

White was not suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol and speed wasn't a factor, according to police.

At this point no charges have been filed against Mr. White.

Police continue the investigation but, so far, all indications are that they child simply darted out into traffic and the driver was unable to see and avoid the collision. Names of the victim and family not released.

Wedding Bells!

We at The Paper are delighted that Debbie and her new husband have found each other and we wish them years and years and years of wedded bliss.

We don’t yet know her married name but that, too, will be known in due time.

In the meantime, we hope each and everyone of you who read Mayor Wood’s column on a regular basis will join Mayor Wood, the staff here at The Paper, and all the good folks who work at Oceanside’s City Hall, all extend warmest wishes to Debbie and her husband. (She’ll be back next week!)

Big business vs. Small, Viva la difference.

Readers have commented that our occasional criticism of the “competition” might be interpreted as being a trifle too convenient. The implication is that we bad mouth the big boys in order to toot our own horn.

Perhaps there is a sliver of truth in what they say but we can’t help it.

We feel that we’re the only source of truth and justice for our customers and readers and by golly we’re going to tell it like it is. About 10% of the public is savvy enough to fend for themselves and don’t need us, but the rest of you are potential victims of the self-serving misinformation campaigns spewed forth by the major players in consumer electronics.

Of all consumer electronics, those relating to computers, communication and the Internet are the least understood by the general public.

Smart TVs, tablets, smart phones and PCs and all the related gadgets, geegaws, gimcracks and play-

City of Carlsbad General Plan Hearing on July 18 - The City of Carlsbad will hold a joint hearing of the City Council and Planning Commission Saturday, July 18, from 9am to 5pm, at 1635 Faraday Ave., to hear a staff presentation and public testimony on the city’s proposed update of its General Plan. This meeting is one of the final steps in a nearly eight year process for how land will be used in the city to achieve the community’s vision for the future. The hearing is an opportunity for the public to provide input.

The General Plan documents are available on the City of Carlsbad website. Print copies are available for review at the City of Carlsbad Planning Division, 1635 Faraday Ave; the City Clerk’s Office, 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive; the Carlsbad City Library, 1775 Dove Lane; and Georgina Cole Library, 1250 Carlsbad Village Drive. Those wish-

So how do companies promote the virtues of their high tech product over those of the competition when the public doesn’t even understand the technology? The short answer is that they don’t even try. For the most part ads for consumer electronics products are aimed at “image building.” They appeal to your emotions, not your logic. If you buy Apple products you are young, hip, urban, unique, exciting and cool, PC users are trite and boring.

Apple also spends millions making sure that its logo is on nearly all PCs that appear on TV shows and in movies leaving the impression that everyone uses Apple when in reality less than 10% actually do.

Rob Lowe’s Direct TV ads, “don’t be like this me,” made it plain that Direct TV customers were suave and debonair while their competitor’s customers were just plain creepy. These ads say nothing about the functionality or usefulness of the product; they simply leave you with the vague impression that using the advertiser’s products will make you smart and beautiful while the competition caters to doofus knuckle draggers.

Even when ads address some aspect of technology, it is typically superficial and non-technical in nature. They create a “buzz word” to identify a technology associated with their product and then hype the buzz word. Apple hypes its “Retinal display” screens and “Face time” and “iSight” cameras yet these components are actually products made and sold to Apple by their arch enemies Samsung and

Splash Bash: A Parents’ Night Out - Coming this summer to the Alga Norte Aquatic Center on Saturday, July 25.

Splash Bash is designed for children 8 and older, but kids under 8 are welcome when accompanied by an adult. Attendees will spend an evening playing on giant inflatables, walking on water in giant water balls, diving off of diving boards and dancing to music under the lights by the pool. The event is from 6 to 9 p.m. and tickets are $8 per person. One child, age 3 and under, may be admitted free with a paying adult. Alga Norte Aquatic Center is located at 6565 Alicante

Sony. It seems unlikely that Samsung and Sony sell Apple better screens and cameras than they use in their own products. Intel creates product esteem and demand for their CPUs through image advertising and repetition, not by comparing technology head to head with their only real competition AMD. Four ding-dongs and an “Intel Inside” slogan say nothing about product technology but the public perception of value that Intel creates through advertising enables Intel to charge a premium price for its CPUs over comparable AMD CPUs. Yet AMD beats Intel handily in price/performance competition.

The point is that unless you really understand the technology and do the research, you’re buying decisions are likely a result of image advertising and/or misinformation.

Lenovo, HP and Dell together sell over 50% of the World’s PCs. They all use the same components and they are all manufactured by the same company that manufactures Apple products, China based Foxxcon. Price, service and warranties are pretty much alike so your purchase decision won’t be based on price or competing tech-

nologies, it will be influenced by whichever company has the most favorable image in your mind.

That’s what these companies spend billions to create.

In big business, management’s primary responsibility is to the bottom line and to the stockholders. It is naïve to believe that customer satisfaction will take care of the other two. Their customers are only pawns in a complex chess game of mergers, acquisitions and competitive one-ups-manship where technology evolves rapidly and market leadership is fickle.

For small businesses it is entirely different. Success in small business is based on face to face relationships. You can’t misrepresent your product or services and expect to stick around. You must provide a quality product every day. Unlike the big boys, you have to answer your customer’s questions directly and honestly, so you’d better know what you are talking about.

For twenty years we managed very large operations for multinational corporations. This is our twentieth year running this small business, The Computer Factory. We like small a lot better.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a peson interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

She’s with a major corporation whose television commercials you often see. (Think Old MacDonald and Pinocchio).

And remember, you can save 15% or more . . . but everyone knows that.

Escondido, CA—In a 2002 issue of Neurosurgical Focus, a peerreviewed article was published by a Dr. Michael D. Martin, MD et al. in which the third sentence states: “The disc itself is active tissue that contains significant mechanisms for self-repair.”

That article was published by a neurosurgeon and written directly for neurosurgeons.

“The Disc Itself Is Active Tissue...”

So what does that really mean to us? It tells us that the disc itself does have a God-given ability to heal and repair if provided the proper mechanisms for self-healing. There is a specific mechanism inherent in each of the spinal discs called the “pump mechanism of disc nutri-tion” (see Fig 1). When this mechanism is not working properly, the spinal discs will begin to die causing bulges, herniations, and eventually spinal stenosis.

The spinal disc is one of the very few tissues in the body that does not have a direct blood supply for circulation. The only way that the disc gets the circulation of water, oxygen and nutrients for self-repair is via this specific disc pump mechanism. What happens when you decrease cir-culation in any type of tissue, whether it be animal tissue, plant tissue or human tissue? Exactly, it begins to become weak and begins to degenerate.

Symptoms Are NOT The Problem

Now the symptoms of pain, numbness,

brown leaves are the plant’s problem?

Of course not, the leaves turning brown is just a condition that is telling you that there is something wrong with the plant. The plant is unhealthy and needs water and nutrients. You could spray paint the leaves green but it just covers up the condition. The underlying problem still exists and will continue to produce brown leaves until you fix the actual problem. and tingling that most experience with bulging, herniated or degenerative discs are NOT the problem. The definition of a symptom: “something that indicates the existence of something else.” It is just like the dashboard of your car telling you that something is wrong (brake lights out, engine needs checked, overheating, etc.) Those lights that appear in your car dash are NOT the problem.

The treatment that is provided at Dr. Heilman’s Spine and Neuropathy Care Center in Escondido is revolutionary and is specifically designed to artificially re-create the pump mechanism in the discs which allows the spinal discs to heal and repair.
