The first thing to say about this proposal, the latest in a long line of at tempts by localities to split off from the nation’s largest state, is that it won’t happen in the life time of anyone sentient today.But there just might be a fun campaign on the issue over the next few weeks.Yes, San Bernardi no County won’t do much better in the reality de partment than the State of Jefferson (a proposed split-off of many rural Northern California coun ties) or the 2011 proposal from former Riverside County Supervisor Jeff Stone to make a new state from a dozen or so con servative-leaning inland counties, or a more recent plan to carve up current California into five states.

But county voters will get no information on any of this when they vote this fall on the local proposi tion to look into splitting. The short notice on which the proposal was plopped onto the ballot allows few answers to any questions.

The council, with May or Judy Ritter and Deputy Mayor John Franklin op posed, moved to amend the Vista Municipal Code to in clude in the section on the appointment of employees that “…the city manager shall make said appoint ments in consultation and agreement with a majority of the City Council.”

Mission Hills Princi pal Cliff Mitchell said stu dents’ willingness to learn essential lifesaving skills is inspiring.“Ithink we’re all sus ceptible to having a loved one or a co-worker, or being at the airport or another public place, and having someone in cardiac arrest,” he said. “These students are miles ahead of where we were as kids, and they’re so willing and so ready to lend a Mitchellhand.” added that he aims to have all students in the school trained in CPR through physical education classes in the coming years.

“This29. proposal is a huge change in our city's municipal code that ul timately takes away the city manager's authority to manage and puts it in the hands of three council members,” Ritter said in a written response to her colleagues. “And that's exactly what this is doing, who are coincidentally the ones attempting to change the code. In addition, they’re pushing the change through without signifi cant advance notice to the general public. How trans parent is that? That nobody knew about this meeting?”

During the pandemic, Siyahhan and Price merged their programs, and now the STEM ambassadors are accompanied on their out ings by future teachers. In all, hundreds of CSUSM students will participate in the Mobile Making program during each of the next five years.The NASA grant was secured by Price in col laboration with Gerardo Dominguez, a fellow physics professor. CSUSM was one of only eight institutions nationwide that received a total of $3.8 million in Mi nority University Research and Education (MUREP) awards for the MUREP Aerospace Academy (MAA).CSUSM’s version of this academy involves a partner ship with four area high schools: San Marcos and Mission Hills in San Marcos and San Pasqual and Or ange Glen in Escondido.

Two former council members addressed the incumbents on Aug. 30, urging them to turn down the change, echoing the warnings of a shift in gov ernment.John Aguilar ques tioned the motives of the City Council in bringing forward the item — at 3 p.m. rather than at 7 p.m. on Tuesday — adding that outside parties don’t be long in government hiring.

No one has ever won two Grand Slams, with Laver saying his sec ond one, in 1969, was “the crown.”But that year’s Wimble don couldn’t match 1962.

It has been an incompa rable career, and life, which led Laver to becoming friends with Frank Sinatra, playing tennis with Charl ton Heston, golfing with Sean Connery and hanging backstage with Tony Ben nett.

“It’s something,” Laver said, pausing to embrace his good fortune. “I got the opportunity to play around the world and meet all these people that I did and it was just a thrill.”

Laver still gets his kicks from tennis and there’s plenty of get-up-andgo in this 84-year-old. He attended Wimbledon this summer and then the Open Championship, traveling to St. Andrews as a Rolex Ambassador to watch golf er Cameron Smith, another Queenslander, claim the trophy.With Spaniard teenag er Carlos Alcaraz winning this month’s U.S. Open, Laver is among those im pressed with tennis’ young est No. 1 player.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Continue to hold onto the reins so that you don’t charge willy-nilly into a situation that might appear attractive on the surface, but that actually lacks substance.

Although you might want to protest what seems to be an unfair situation, it’s best to keep your tongue and tem per in check for now. The full story hasn’t yet come out.

SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem ber 21) A more positive picture of what lies ahead is beginning to take shape. But there are still too many gaps that need to be filled in before you make definitive plans.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Be careful not to let your on-thejob zealousness create resentment with co-workers, who might feel you shut them out. Prove them wrong by including them in your project.

Work prospects are back on track. But, watch what you say. A thought less comment to the wrong person — even if it’s said in jest — could delay or even derail your progress.
