Commissioners consider future by Dave Roberts Staff Writer Few East County residents know that the East County Regional Planning Commission (ECRPC) even exists – and now it might be going away. The three commissioners who showed up at the July 13 meeting (one was absent and the fifth seat is vacant) voted to recommend that the commission be suspended due to the lack of economic development in East County lately and for the foreseeable future. “There’s nothing going on,” said Commissioner Bob Doran of Discovery Bay. “So as far as I am concerned, it’s a waste of money (to keep the commission). Some day again it might be necessary, but right now there’s nothing going on.” In the three months Doran has been on the commission it has considered only one signifi-

cant project, a residential development in the area of the Bay Point Marina. At their July 13 meeting, the commissioners discussed the board’s future. “Each one of us made a comment,” said Doran. “Mine was: there’s no reason for the expense of it. It’s really expensive to do that (commission). You take (a project) that’s been in the mill for five years – that’s a lot of people that (report) has to be FedExed to. It just runs up expenses. They have to pay rent for the Antioch council building (where the meetings are held) and county people get paid for coming (as staff to the meetings).” If the county supervisors decide in August to follow the commissioners’ recommendation, the commission would cease to exist on Oct. 7. Its duties would be taken over by the see Commission page 14A

Bruce Connelley believes in the concept of Power to the People, and he’s counting on the popular credo of the 1960s to make a difference in 2009. “There is a spirit in America today that some cynics think has died; that complacency is the norm nowadays, but I don’t believe it,” said the Oakley city councilman. “I don’t believe it at all.” And he’s set on proving it with an event called The Million Boat Float, a two-day assemblance designed to draw attention to the state’s proposed construction of a $40 billion alternate-conveyance system that many believe is a thinly veiled move toward a peripheral canal. “The goal (of the event) is to wake people up to what is happening in the Delta,” said Connelley. “The idea is to bring national attention to the issue because no one is listening to us,

the stakeholders.” The proposed canal, which proponents say is designed to improve water quality and habitat conditions in the Delta, has the backing of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and is the centerpiece of the Bay Delta Conservation Plan, whose goal is to secure a canal under the Endangered Species Act. California voters rejected a similar peripheral canal proposal in 1982, but this time around, state administrators claim they don’t need voter approval. So with apparently no governmental input at the local level, residents such as Connelley fear a lack of transparency and little chance of a raising a voice in the process. “It comes down to this: other elected officials from local and federal levels have tried to work with the government to work it out,” said Connelley. “But it hasn’t worked that way. It’s all been a charade.” see Protesters page 14A

Partygoers’ gift to local vets: $21K by Rick Lemyre Staff Writer

There were tears and smiles, hugs and handshakes, kudos and thanks, and it was all topped off by checks totaling $21,000. It was, in and of itself, a nice little party, but it paled in comparison to the partying that made it possible. The occasion was the distribution of proceeds from the What A Country Challenge, the brainchild of Discovery Bay’s Frank Morgan and his “Team.” What started as a plan to celebrate Morgan’s earning a master’s degree turned into an effort to raise money for local veterans. The team threw down the gauntlet, challenging others to party, pass the hat and contribute to the well-being of the men and women who protect Americans’ privilege to have such fun. The idea swept East County and beyond like wildfire: About 800 people attended Morgan’s party (which also sprawled across six neighbors’ homes); another bash was held at the Discovery Bay Yacht Club; a Car and Motorcycle Show was sponsored by Red Barn Hot Rods; a red, white and blue hot tub was carted around far East County on a “Freedom Tour” by Ed McClellend; jumpers from Bay Area Sky Diving dropped in; three bands played, sponsored by Bill Brandt Ford; and a Vietnam-era Army helicopter sat on the front lawn as a decoration,

Special swings for Special Kids by Ruth Roberts Staff Writer

Some came for the golf, others for the dining and entertainment, but all came out last weekend to support the Special Kids Foundation and its plans to build an all-abilities playground on the site of the Delta Family YMCA in Oakley. The fundraiser, held at the Lone Tree Golf Course, featured 18 holes of golf followed by a buffet dinner, silent auction and live entertainment. The first-time event raised more than $5,000 toward the project, but for those in attendance the gathering did more than raise dollars; it bolstered the spirits and hopes of all involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My son Nathan, he has a hard time (at other playgrounds),â&#x20AC;? said an emotional

David Chuey, board advisor for the Special Kids Foundation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we are going to build this playground and in this playground, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;playâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is going to mean something to my special-needs kid and all the specialneeds children. I want to thank everyone for coming out and supporting us.â&#x20AC;? The all-abilities playground is a joint effort on behalf of the Delta Family YMCA and the Special Kids Foundation. The YMCA is building a new facility on Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hara Avenue in Oakley, and the playground is part of the improvements. The playground will serve children with limited physical abilities and will feature water-play areas, sensory-integration centers, wheelchair lifts, large wooden playhouses and shaded spaces.

City Councilman Jim Frazier, is donating the construction of the playground, and the Special Kids Foundation will pay for the equipment, which is expected to cost around $750,000. In turn, the City of Oakley, which owns the YMCA property, has agreed to maintain the playground in perpetuity. Special Kids Foundation President Lisa McBride, said the event was a huge success and brings the playground one step closer to completion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What another wonderful turnout of Special Kids fans and supporters. We had so much fun, and all in the name of raising funds so all kids can play.

Summerset ‘Sea’ shines by Ray Carter Correspondent

The Summerset Singer’s production of “Sea to Shining Sea” drew standing ovations from large audiences when the 43-member chorus’ summer concert was performed last Friday, Saturday and Sunday in the Summerset Vista Recreation Center. The program was billed as an “annual tour” that featured a musical virtual bus trip to well-known cities and areas across the country. The program featured songs both serious and funny. Classics like “Shenandoah” and “Oklahoma” were interspersed with efforts such as Eleanor Murray’s “Blues in the Night” and fun songs like Ernie Macintyre’s and Jim Rankin’s “Country Roads,” performed on guitar and banjo. The Singers performed 19 tunes whose subjects spanned the continent, beginning the tour with “New York, New York” and rolling to a stop on our golden shores with “San Francisco Open Your Golden Gate,” from the 1936 movie “San Francisco.” “This Land Is Your Land” followed and the encore “America The Beautiful” wrapped up the show. The complete chorus sung 11 tunes while nine were performed solo or in groups. According to retired Livermore Lab employee Norma Scarlett, the show was “very entertaining – what a marvelous production.” Los Medanos vocal instructor Nancy Bachman holds vocal training classes that recently included 16 Summerset Singers.

Pvt. Matthew Mastrangelo, a 2008 Freedom High School graduate and Army Infantry graduate from Fort Benning, Ga., was recently awarded his Expert Infantry Badge and perfect score True Blue recognition. Now stationed at Fort Stewart, Ga., Mastrangelo was acknowledged by Maj. Gen. Anthony Cucolo as “The youngest soldier (age 18) in the 2nd Brigade Combat Team to earn the coveted Expert Infantry Badge with all first-time Go’s.” Congratulations, Matthew!

A contingency is something that a party to the contract holds as a way to get out of the contract. The most common would be inspection, financing and appraisal contingencies for the Buyer. The “standard” method of how contingencies are officially removed has changed quite a bit over the years. There are two main ways – passive and active. Passive contingency removal means that when the deadline comes and goes and the party in question has not cancelled the agreement, by default they have removed their contingency. That is why it is called “passive.” If you do nothing, you are deemed to have removed your contingency. Active contingency removal means that when the deadline passes, if the party in question has not removed their contingency, they still retain it. For example, if the contract gives the Buyer 17 days to remove their inspection contingency, and on the 18th day the Buyer has not removed their contingency, they still have that contingency in place. The Seller at that point can

give the Buyer a notice to Perform or Quit, but the Seller can’t just declare the Buyer in default or force them to close escrow or try to retain their deposit. Years ago, the California Association of Realtors (CAR) used the passive method in our contracts, but then they lost a couple of lawsuits where the Buyer claimed the passive method didn’t give them enough time if the first inspector recommended more inspections. So now our standard CAR contract does use the active method. However, most bank-owned properties come with an addendum from the bank that converts it back to passive method. So if you are a buyer, you need to ask your agent which method of contingency removal applies. If it’s passive, you need to REALLY watch your deadlines.

Wish lists from page 9A

Free Eligibility Scale: Lunch, Breakfast, Milk

Antioch teacher Lisa McBride sees the challenges from two sides, as a parent and a teacher. For the Sutter Elementary educator, a community posting spot would be heaven sent. “Yes, as a parent I feel the crunch, and as a teacher, we ask and ask and ask, and feel terrible about the burden we are placing on the parents of public school children for what we have to ask for,” said McBride. “Yes, I would absolutely post my wishes, and bless the saint that fulfills them.” Rick Rogers, Oakley Union School District superintendent, said a community wish list has definite benefits: “I would be supportive of this creative idea, especially given these challenging economic times. It would be great for teachers to have a system by which they could post their wish lists items and update them as needed.” Byron Union School District Superintendent Eric Prater gives the idea two thumbs up. “I personally think it’s a great idea,” said Prater. “And what I love about this concept is that it allows teachers to really think about it and be specific about what they need, instead of asking for just a gen-

eral contribution. I’m all for it.” The Knightsen School District, known for its can-do approach to education, would certainly be onboard with a plan such as Bartling’s, said Knightsen Superintendent Vickey Rinehart. “The Knightsen community and the Knightsen School District staff are always there to work together and help toward a goal that helps others. I think it’s an excellent idea.” While the details are still to be worked out, Bartling said the response within her district has been great: “There are companies out there that don’t know that the binders they were going to throw away could be used by a classroom or that the pencils that they ordered that have the wrong number could greatly fill a need. “If each school composed a list of their greatest needs, I think that this community would support it one-hundred percent.” The Press thinks so too, and starting next week we will begin posting individual lists on our Web site. Interested teachers are encouraged to e-mail their classroom wishes to us at rroberts@brentwoodpress.com. Items will be posted and updated on a regular basis as they’re submitted.

BACK TO SCHOOL

Start from page 8A Parsons said since the school population increased by about 125 students, he was concerned about traffic. But the majority of students arrived to school on time and were in class when the final bell rang – a first since the school opened five years ago. Overall, the Liberty Union High School District has seen an increase of about 3 percent this year, according to Superintendent Jerry Glenn. He said that while the district’s population growth is significantly lower than in the past, he’s satisfied with the current numbers, especially since the district is working to find ways to cope with the state budget cuts. “It’s not business as usual around here,” Glenn said. “We’ve been hit hard by the state budget cuts, and we don’t have the resources that we used to, but we are doing what we can to limit the impact on the students. Hopefully this isn’t a fatal blow, but cuts will have to be made.” Glenn said cuts would most likely affect the athletics program, citing a projected reduction in coaching staff, plus student clubs and organizations. By making those cuts, Glenn hopes to keep the impact of budget cuts out of the classroom, but he admits that class sizes might increase in the future. Oakley Union Elementary School District Superintendent Rick Rogers is also grappling with budget cuts and limited resources, but said his biggest disappointment about the beginning of the school year is the number of students who fail to attend opening classes due ignorance of the early start. “It’s really discouraging when some families schedule their vacations late in the year or don’t realize that the

school year has started – not making education a priority, but it happens every year. We’re still on target to hit our projected enrollment for the year of about 4,600 students.” Over in the Byron Union School District, Superintendent Eric Prater spent the first day back to school, touring the district’s three schools. “It was a mad rush to get everything done, but we pulled it off,” said Prater. “With only seven weeks off, the school year really sneaks up on you, but we got off to a good start this week. I’m jazzed to be back.” Despite budget cuts, Prater said it’s important to fulfill basic needs while moving forward. The Byron district was fortunate enough to set up four new computer labs over the summer with the help of Measure C funding, and the technology upgrade is key to maintaining the district’s positive attitude about the future. To help working families during the recession, the district established a new beforeand-after-school day care program called The Academy. “Everyone is struggling right now, and we want to do our part to help families get through these tough times,” Prater said. Knightsen School District could use some rescuing of its own. Superintendent Vickey Rinehart said the campaign to Save Old River (School) marches on, but on a good note, the school’s enrollment increased by 25 students this year with the addition of sixth grade. Old River’s entire student body of 152 students gathered for a group picture on Tuesday, and while the district still needs more funds to keep the school open for the entire school year, Rinehart remains optimistic. “We still need more funding,” she said, “but we’re plugging along. We’ll use the energy of back-toschool to fuel the efforts to save Old River.”

Tea Partiers doing what they can Editor: My name is Steve Cichosz and I am proud to say that I am a supporter of the Tea Party activities. I can only say this because of the people who participate in this organization. They are not right-wing Republican zealots, though I have met associated Republicans, just as I have met associated Democrats. As a matter of fact, one of the first suggestions made to us when my wife and I attended our first meeting was to reregister as an independent voter. The people attending these meetings are everyday people like me, a systems analyst with a hobbyist penchant for landscaping. At the meetings have been engineers, housewives, the retired and more. There are those you could call “young” and those you could call “old” regardless of your definition for these terms. What everyone does have in common is strong disappointment in our government. The concerns of the Tea Party events I attended go much further back than last January. Many of the discussed concerns are considered as having root causes as far back as the early 20th century. Primarily, though, the topic is the consistent degradation of our government to the money-shuffling, lobbyist-serving, vote-hustling, power-grabbing bunch they have become. I don’t think people who naively criticize these people trying to make a difference that matters by reducing everything to an empty and distracting bickering between two political parties quite understand what’s at stake here … it’s our country, folks. The very freedoms and prosperity that made us the only nation left on this planet considered, without question, to be the last superpower are near collapse and remain under siege by an assailant we never expected to be our most serious threat, ourselves. It is easy for us to point the finger at another person and group to say “their fault.” It’s easy to point the finger at our president and say “you’re spending us into bankruptcy and breaking your promises”

without taking even a moment to understand we have all broken promises when faced with new information. It is easy to blame the past president for singlehandedly leading an entire Republican Party down a path creating our current situation, and forget to acknowledge that there was a Democratic Congress in place about the time things really started going economically south. It’s easy to blame our congressmen (and women) and our senators for making decisions we consider horrendous or even illegal, and forget that we elected them and then worse, we ignored them and their antics while going about our own little singular lives. I say these things not in the arrogance of someone who feels they are doing something more than another, but in the humility of someone who for most of his life did not. I say these things as someone who has finally realized himself to be the “somebody” in “somebody has to do something.” Yes, the Tea Party does protest, and I dislike doing it, but we do it so others can see they are not alone in their frustration. Yes you may find a Tea Party discombobulated, but they are everyday folks new to these kinds of things and trying to figure it out. You may find their message a bit unclear or off the mark, but they are out there and they are doing something. So the next time someone decides to use some disrespectful aspersion like “Republican,” “lunatic” or “tea bagger” from the comfort of their own routine, please keep in mind the only “tea bagging” going on with this crowd is in a cup at the local Starbucks. That’s where people come together at 0830 Saturday morning to actually do something about taking back this great country of ours from the miscreants on both sides of the political aisle. These are people who, for the most part, would rather be home waiting for somebody else to do something. Steve Chichosz Brentwood

Security charity starts at home Editor: We all stood up at the meetings. We all demanded the Sheriff not use our funds outside of Discovery Bay. We all demanded a say in the allocation. Now, every time I come home, I see police officers. I was a terrible teenager and drove like a jerk, acquiring many, many tickets in my younger youth. Every time I see a police car, I get a little nervous, even though I’m not breaking the law. I guess that is how we want all of the thousands of would-be criminals in our town to feel. Budgets have been slashed. Deputies are losing their jobs. Coverage is slim to none in places that really, and I mean really, need it. Places where crimes are not limited to parking in tow-away zones, street art of

idle youth, and driving without a seat belt. Places where meth addicts are neglecting their children and wives are being beaten and drive-by shootings happen at middle schools. I feel foolish and selfish. The Sheriff has to consider those places and know what is going on, know we have the money to help, but he can’t share it. He’s got to keep two full-time officers in the “live where we play” town. Charity starts at home, folks. Maybe after we see the murder rates go up in our neighboring cities, we’ll ponder the errors of our ways. Or maybe not. Maybe we’ll just be happy our BMWs are safe. Jessica Dawson Discovery Bay

Same old story Editor: Isn’t it common knowledge that Discovery Builders and AD Seeno construction are one and the same? They failed to get the needed permits to cut down 162 trees. It was not an intentional act, according to Jackie Seeno; we had a miscommunication, she says. Is that the best the Seeno can come up with as an excuse? You would think by now the excuses would be better thought out, but maybe for the City of Oakley, that’s enough. It was a “terrible disconnect … and the guys in the field.” Yeah right, the guys in the field don’t use the outhouse without Seeno’s knowledge. Throw in an extra 34 trees and Anderson appreciates it, understanding how a communication problem can happen. Are we really sure a communication problem actually exists or is this the same old story: do whatever we feel like and pay later? Do you follow the news? Seeno has been doing this for years and getting away with it. Bryan and Bill could fine them $25,000; that would like fining me a nickel – except for me, I could use the nickel. Now that the trees are gone, what is holding down the soil so it doesn’t blow into the neighborhood, or would it be too much to ask for an occasional drenching with a water truck to do what was done naturally by the trees? Kevin wants to send them a message so they think four times next time. How about 3 million reasons, like the last fine they got? This is Oakley, not Pittseenoburg! Hilly Rodriguez Oakley

Lions are hoping to pounce back by Dave Roberts Staff Writer

Although rebounding is a skill associated more with basketball than football, the Liberty High football team is hoping for a major rebound from last year’s tough 2-8 season. It actually didn’t start out that bad for the Lions – they were 2-2 after the first four games, beating Livermore and scoring a season high 28 points in a victory over Hogan. But the wheels fell off on both offense and defense once league play started due to numerous injuries in a team that had not been very deep to begin with. The nadir was a three-week stretch against Heritage, Deer Valley and Pittsburg in which they were collectively outscored 128-0. They managed to put 15 points on the board in the finale, but lost to Freedom, which scored 41. “Last year it was interesting,” said Head Coach Nate Smith. “We played the meat of our BVAL schedule, defensively speaking, without a lot of the bullets we had in the gun to start the season. I am not saying that would have made a huge difference. We were not on a level athletically with the other teams.” While Lions fans are hoping for bigger and better things this season, it could be another challenging year due to players’ inexperience. “We are going to be really young this year,” said Smith. “That’s both our positive and our negative. The kids we have coming up that are going to be juniors have been successful at the lower levels. Last year the JV team was 6-4; three of those four losses came by less than a touchdown. It’s a much more talented group coming up. “It’s a blessing and a curse, because we don’t have any varsity experience coming back. That’s going to be the thing we have to overcome: developing leadership that we can count on early in the season before we get to BVAL play. We don’t have anybody coming back that’s been in a pressure varsity experience and knows how to handle that.” Eight or nine of the 11 Lions on the field at any one time will likely be playing in their first varsity games. So the team will be relying on the few veterans to step up and show the younger players how to get it done. One of those is all-league defensive back Antonio Johnson, who was third on the team with 34 tackles last year, according to maxpreps.

com. He’ll be playing outside linebacker on defense and also will be a running back on offense. “We’re hopeful he’ll have a big year,” said Smith. Also returning is Garrett Slocum, a cornerback who will also play wide receiver. He was one of the half-dozen players who were injured and missed league action last season. “He’s stepped into a leadership role for us,” said Smith. Of the newcomers, a potential standout is Shawn Vasquez, who was the offensive and defensive MVP on last year’s JV team, averaging eight to nine yards per carry. Smith is also looking forward to seeing what Caleb Moravec can do this season after playing three games last season before breaking his leg. The big question mark at this point is who will be at quarterback. Three players: Moravec, Bevyn Parsons and Xavier Alexander – each of whom has different strengths – are competing for the top spot. “Moravec is the best runner and blocker of the group,” said Smith. “Parsons does a great job leading the team. He knows the playbook in and out and probably has the quickest release passing the ball. He’s also a capable runner as well. Alexander has the height and the best arm on the team. Where each of them excels, the others need improvement. It’s a very likely scenario that we could have a two-headed quarterback situation, where everybody has to do a little bit of something, but based on what we need at that time

dictates who’s in that position.” Smith is optimistic that things will go better for his team this year. “We have better team speed,” he said. “We have better talent. The thing we can’t predict right now is how our kids are going to be as far as handling that varsity competition. The other thing is whereas we do have a couple of good-sized individuals, we are fairly small as a team. We held our own against bigger teams at our camp this summer. “Our kids have been working hard all off-season. They are going to earn their worth on the field. Whatever comes, any success they might have, they will put in the time to earn it. We hope to see the fruits of that labor as they mature and grow to a varsity football team.” They’ll get their first test at home on Sept. 9 vs. Clayton Valley, followed by home games on Sept. 11 vs. Livermore and Sept. 18 vs. Lowell. Then they’re on the road Oct. 2 at McNair and Oct. 9 at Oakland. League play kicks off with an Oct. 16 home game vs. Antioch, followed by games on Oct. 23 Press file photo at Heritage, Oct. 30 at Deer Valley, Nov. 6 hosting Pittsburg and either Liberty’s football team, seen here in a loss Nov. 13 or 14 hosting Freedom in to Heritage last season, is hoping for better the Bell Game. things this season.

Trevor’s Weekly Mortgage Matters By Trevor Frey

HomePath 101 Don’t have 3.5% to put down on a home? Don’t want to pay mortgage insurance? Are you an investor who’s looking for a distressed property but can’t use the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) 203(k) loan because you’re an investor? Than Fannie Mae’s HomePath Mortgage Program, or Fannie Mae’s HomePath Renovation Mortgage Program, might just be the answer you’re looking for! Fannie Mae, a main investor of in this country’s mortgages, has unfortunately amassed a large number of homes taken back by the banks over the past year or so. When foreclosure is sadly inevitable and a home is foreclosed upon, Fannie Mae itself is left with another REO, or “real estate owned” property. The grim reality - Fannie Mae is collecting more and more of these homes every day. Their inventory is up which, in turn, has caused the government subsidized agency to create the HomePath Mortgage Program in hopes of turning around inventory, and, in turn, stimulating the economy. Since these homes are already owned by Fannie Mae, and Fannie Mae’s own asset managers – persons assigned to work with local real estate agents to price and list these homes – have already come up with a price, there is no appraisal needed for the new Fannie Mae loan. Another perk(s) of finding and purchasing a Fannie Mae owned home, only 3% down is required (unlike the 3.5% FHA has required since the start of 2009) and you don’t even have to be a first time buyer.

Regardless of how many homes you own (up to 10), if you plan on living in the house you’re purchasing through the HomePath program, the down payment of 3% can be a gift and there is no mortgage insurance required. Let’s recap: YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A FIRST TIME BUYER, THERE IS NO APPRAISAL REQUIRED, AND THIS IS NO PMI (PRIVATE MORTGAGE INSURANCE) OR MI (MORTGAGE INSURANCE) REQUREMENT. Wow, what a program! And for you investors out there, the HomePath Renovation Mortgage Program is quite possibly your best bet cash flow wise. Unlike any other type of conventional financing out there, a potential investor need only bring 10% of the purchase price to the table, in order to purchase a home. Overall the Fannie Mae’s HomePath Mortgage Program is an excellent tool one should arm them-selves with when shopping the housing market. Contact your local real estate agent to explore the homes Fannie Mae has available. Of course, before that, feel free to give me a call in order to guarantee you’re pre-approved to purchase using the HomePath product. You have to be an approved HomePath Lender in order to offer the product to your friends and clients. If you have any real estate lending related questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to write me at tfreymortgages@yahoo.com or call me directly at 925-726-1444. – Advertisement

All Stars get hot

Soccer from page 1B more Streets streets. It will be divided into four small soccer fields for players under 8, freeing up Garin Park, where they had been playing, for older kids to use, according to EDYSL President Sash Migay. “We are thankful that Streets is looking to be a part of the community and get involved for the kids,” said Migay. The league must provide insurance and pay for maintenance, which he estimates at $600 per month – a nice savings over the $1,000/month it costs to rent a field from the City of Brentwood.

Ask the Vet By Cory Sims, DVM

Brentwood Veterinary Hospital

Why does my puppy need more shots? : I just got a new puppy and the breeder gave her shots before I brought her home. At her first visit the vet said that she will need more shots over the next few months. Does my dog really need all of these shots and why? : The vaccines your veterinarian has recommended are probably the “distemper” vaccine (which includes parvovirus) and rabies. In many cases, there are additional vaccines your pet may need, such as: bordetella (for “kennel cough”); leptospirosis (for hunting or herding dogs); or a periodontal vaccine for breeds who are predisposed to periodontal disease. Each of these vaccines serves a very important purpose in keeping your puppy healthy as she grows and Rabies is required by law in order to protect human health as well. Because a puppy’s immune system is still developing during the first several months of life, it is important that you protect her from infectious diseases. Until the immune system is fully mature, it does not respond completely to vaccines and your puppy is not fully protected. Every puppy is a little different in their development, so vaccines are scheduled to be given at key intervals in order to maximize their benefit. Most veterinarians recommend that the puppy vaccine series be started at about 8 weeks of age, when many puppies are no longer receiving immunity from their mothers’ milk. Vaccines are then repeated, or “boost-

Q A

Ronald R. McGee Dec. 27, 1947-July 15, 2009 Ron “Rapid Ron” McGee passed away at the age of 61. Born in Tulsa, Okla., he was a citizen of the Muscogee Nation and a descendant of Tuckabache, a well-known Creek Tribe warrior and hunter. He was very proud of his Indian heritage. Ron went to Daytona in 1977 and purchased a cup car that ran and finished the 500. He started racing modifieds at the old San Jose Speedway in the early ’70s. Ron went on to race the NASCAR Winston West in the early ’80s. He was a true motorhead who never lost his love of speed and the sound of a well-tuned engine. Ron owned Diamond Electro Plating and did extensive chrome work

for many custom cars and motorcycles. He also owned Bay Internet, specializing in computer cabinets, sheet metal and custom painting. He is survived by his wife, Elizabeth Van Sandwyk of Discovery Bay; his daughter and son-in-law, Katrina and Louie Mendez of Salida; stepsons, Benjamin Markus of Honolulu and Clyde Holbrook of Discovery Bay; nephew, Michael McGee of Redding; and “his girls,” granddaughters Kylie and Carerra Mendez. He is predeceased by his parents, mother Mary Engel; brother, Sammie McGee; and stepson, Nicholas Markus. A memorial service will be held Aug. 1, 2009, at 11 a.m. at the Brentwood Funeral Home, 839 First St., followed by a reception. All family and friends are invited to come and celebrate Ron’s life.

ered” at 4 week intervals until a puppy is 4 months old. The exact number of boosters that is required varies depending on the vaccine (for example, bordetella only needs to be boostered once after the initial shot, distemper is usually boostered at least twice after the initial shot.) Some breeders will give their puppies a “pre-8-week” vaccine, usually a full distemper vaccine, but sometimes this shot only covers parvovirus. This early vaccine is not harmful, but at best it only provides partial protection and it is never enough all by itself to protect your dog from illness. Additionally, your dog’s immune system will not completely respond to a vaccine until it has been exposed to that vaccine at least twice. This is why even adult dogs will need to come back for a booster for a vaccine they have never received before. These puppy appointments are also your opportunity to ask your veterinarian any questions you may have about your puppy’s development and behavior. It is also a good idea to ask your doctor about your dog’s diet, flea and parasite prevention, and any other preventative measures you can take to keep your dog healthy over her lifetime. Your veterinarian has plenty of experience answering questions like these and can provide you with references, information and support to be sure that you and your puppy get off to a great start in your new relationship, which will hopefully last for many happy years. – Advertisement

Staying healthy at 50+ Life expectancy has increased dramatically over the last century, but not all those living longer now are living well. The survey “Growing Old in America: The Health and Retirement Study” (HRS), sponsored by the National Institute on Aging, uncovered some troubling realities about the health of older Americans. Among them: less than half of HRS participants 55 to 64 said they are in very good or excellent health, and only about one-quarter of participants 65 and older said they are in very good or excellent health. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the leading causes of death for U.S. adults 65 or older are heart disease, cancer and stroke. These account for 61 percent of all deaths in this age group. What many people don’t realize is that preventive screenings and changes in behavior can help them live better and longer lives.

Behavior Men and women over 50 can take action to improve their overall health. It’s never too late to start. • Be tobacco free. To talk to someone about how, call the National Quitline at 800-QUITNOW. • Get active. Start small and work up to 30 minutes or more of moderate activity several days a week. Talk to your doctor about what you can do. • Eat healthy. Lean meats, fish, vegetables, fruits, whole grains and fat-free or low-fat milk and milk products are best for people of any age. • Maintain a healthy weight. Balance calorie intake with calories spent in exercise. Talk to

your doctor if you start to gain or lose weight unexpectedly. • Get immunized. Influenza and pneumonia kill an average of 36,000 people per year, most of whom are women 65 or older. The right immunizations can prevent not only the flu and pneumonia, but whooping cough and shingles as well.

Screenings Clinicians order diagnostic tests when they suspect someone has a disease. Screening tests, however, help check for problems before symptoms appear. Health experts from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommend the following screenings for men and women over 50: Colorectal Cancer. This is the third most common type of cancer for both men and women and the second leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. More than 90 percent of cases are diagnosed in people 50 or older. The Task Force recommends: • A fecal occult blood test every year. • Flexible sigmoidoscopy every five years. Depression. Emotional health is as important as physical health. If you have felt sad or hopeless over the last two weeks, or have felt little interest or pleasure in doing things, you might be suffering from depression. High Blood Pressure. Have your blood pressure checked at least every two years. If you have high blood pressure, have a blood test for diabetes. High Cholesterol. Have your cholesterol checked regularly. – Courtesy of Family Features
