lings are in custody after being arrested this week for the embezzlement of over $1 million from a real estate company in Del Mar, the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department reported.
Julie Blease, 53, and Colin Miller, 56, are facing multiple felony charges for embezzlement, identity theft, forgery, and money laundering with a white-collar crime enhancement.
Blease was arrested Aug. 23 in San Diego and Miller was arrested Aug. 24 in Poway.
Blease is the former manager of Beach Colony Apartments along Camino Del Mar, where she worked for 25 years. Starting as early as 2007, it is believed that Blease began funneling money from the company and covering it up by manipulating accounting records.

“I acknowledge your reasons for being here to oppose this project are real...but in the end, we’re up against state housing law.”

ENCINITAS — Piraeus Point,
a project consisting of nearly 150 townhomes at Piraeus Street and Plato Place in Leucadia, received 3-1 approval from the Encinitas City Council despite resounding opposition from the community.
During an Aug. 23 City Council meeting, public comments took over an hour — more than 15 people spoke, nine donated their speaking time to others and 10 registered opposition. Over 30 people gave input in one way or another, and none supported Lennar Homes’ plans for development.
But the council said its hands were tied, ultimately denying an appeal of the project and allowing it to move forward.
Due to the housing shortage, the state legislature has passed laws making it easier to develop new housing. Piraeus Point fits the guidelines in the Housing Accountability Act, which requires developments to align with zoning laws, not adversely affect the water supply or public health and meet the standards of the California Environmental Quality Act and the California Coastal Act.
The Piraeus Point neighborhood will consist of 52 one-bedroom homes, 37 two-bedroom

— As plans for the redevelopment of the Oceanside Transit Center edge closer to completion, neighboring residents remain concerned about the impacts a proposed relocation of the bus bays could have on the local neighborhood.
Plans to redevelop the transit center have been underway since 2016 when the North County Transit District board of directors adopted a policy to develop some of its real estate holdings, including the transit center, to reduce vehicle reliance and increase transit ridership while creating jobs and affordable housing.
NCTD hired Toll Brothers Apartment Living to develop a mixed-use project on-site with up to 547 apartments, 165 luxury hotel rooms, office space, retail stores and three parking garages for 1,800 parking spaces. The regional agency also plans to relocate its current headquarters to the transit center and replace the 810 Mission Avenue space with 206 mixed-income apartments, including 15% designated for low-income households.
Preliminary environmental documents were submitted to the Oceanside Planning Division over the summer for the mixed-use housing, hotel, offices and retail shops to be built at the transit center.
Currently, buses use Seagaze Drive as the main exit. Still, the proposed redevelopment plans would relocate the bus bay to the property's southwest corner and redirect southbound buses to use Michigan Avenue and Missouri Avenue instead. At the same time, north and eastbound busses continue to use Seagaze.
While most residents who live near the transit center support the project in general, several are concerned about the redirection of bus travel along Michigan and Missouri avenues.
Kevin Ham, who helped create Innovate78, and Jane Marshall of the Oceanside Coastal Neighborhood Association feel that Seagaze is better equipped to handle
bus traffic because of how wide the road is compared to the narrow roadways of Michigan and Missouri.
Chris Orlando, NCTD chief planning and communications officer, said relocating the bus bays will create a more efficient travel experience for riders with more convenient connections between the bus and rail systems.
“It is currently a 7- to 10-minute walk to transfer between bus and rail services,” Orlando said via email. “Relocating the bus bays and the rail platforms reduces the walking distance and cuts the time it takes to transfer between modes to two to five minutes, making it more convenient for riders and a better transit experience overall.”
Ham and Marshall remain skeptical of the move, which they said was proposed without the proper levels of community input.
“Unfortunately, this project failed to conduct early and important community meetings for input on concerns that negatively affect the surrounding community, such as the bus bay relocation to the southwest corner of the southern lot and resulting ingress and egress impacts of all southbound buses on Michigan and Missouri Avenues,” Ham said.
Developers are currently awaiting the completion of a circulation study reviewing the current plan to determine the optimal paths for buses entering and exit-
ing the transit center. Orlando said the study is expected to be completed this fall.
Orlando said the circulation study is considering the Coast Highway Corridor Study, a separate plan the city is working on to redevelop its stretch of Coast Highway.
“NCTD and the developer are working closely with the city on the circulation elements of the project, including anticipating potential road features in the Coast Highway Corridor Study,” Orlando said. “NCTD has provided the city with bus operational requirements to ensure any future road projects, including roundabouts, are compatible with bus operations.”
The corridor study proposes installing several roundabouts, including one at the intersection of Coast Highway and Michigan Avenue. Marshall questioned if the buses can logistically use Michigan with such a change, though Orlando noted that NCTD buses operate in other areas with roundabouts.
Although Marshall and Ham both support the transit center’s redevelopment, they feel that developers could better listen to community input about the project than they have so far.
“We’re trying to have an open dialogue, but these things seem to change very discreetly,” Marshall said, referring to some modifications made over the last year to the initially submitted redevelopment proposal.
Some of those changes include creating an exit on Missouri. Initially, the exit didn’t exist, according to Ham, then was added as an emergency exit before it became the only exit for southbound buses.
“This makes us wonder what else has changed slowly without detection,” Ham said.
Ham and Marshall want to remove the Missouri exit for southbound buses and instead use Seagaze as they currently do.

Every poll shows most California adults favor the housing density laws that have emerged from the state Legislature with great regularity and fanfare over the last three years.
Despite those findings, often showing 60% or more in favor, the rebellion against those laws has a decent chance of success.
It’s a matter of what’s at stake and who will eventually vote on the potential landmark initiative to cancel out the new laws where they conflict with local land use ballot measures passed in many cities and counties.
Afew weeks ago, I talked about how the County of San Diego is pursuing a harm reduction program through the California Department of Public Health, including syringe services and safer smoking sup -
The County of San Diego has recently made it clear that it intends to distribute thousands of needles using state-funds under the guise of a “Harm Reduction” program.
The only thing these programs do is further harm our communi-
tax-payer funds to give out needles, pipes, and other drug paraphernalia, is not the compassionate nor the responsible thing to do.
Efforts should come with requirements of treatment and accountability, supporting people suffering from addic -
Polling on housing density laws has usually been done in general terms, with brief explanations of the new measures not mentioning the instability and constant variation in need estimates from state government.
Those surveys often don’t distinguish likely voters from residents who aren’t even registered to vote.
Nor do they note whose life savings are invested in their homes and who is now renting. They also do not mention the changes already wrought by the new housing laws in many once-bucolic neighborhoods.
dwelling units on virtually all lots that now hold just one home, represent a chance to sell out to a developer and get rich quickly, as their age and home ownership status often has provided them significant equity they can now cash out.
But for the many who plan to stay put the rest of their active lives, neighborhood stability will be a major interest.
The currently proposed initiative is an effort to assure such stability, even if some call the status quo racist and exclusionary.
(The measure is now undergoing the state’s normal title and summary process in the office of state Attorney General Rob Bonta, a firm advocate of the laws this measure could cancel. Time will reveal the fairness of his work on this and whether it encounters a legal challenge.)

plies. This potential program involves, in part, the distribution of free needles and various other drug paraphernalia. We believe this is not a solution to homelessness and are united in North County.
Below is a letter we sent the State of California rejecting this program.
I want to thank Escondido Mayor Dane White, San Marcos Mayor Rebecca Jones, Vista Mayor John Franklin, Oceanside Deputy Mayor Ryan Keim, and Carlsbad Mayor Keith Blackburn for joining me in this fight.
We are writing to express our opposition to current and proposed needle exchange and drug paraphernalia distribution programs, including safe smoking devices, in North San Diego County.
While we understand and appreciate the attempt to help our vulnerable populations, needle exchange and associated programs are detrimental to neighborhoods and communities, and we are united against the implementation of these programs in North County.
ties stricken with substance-abuse disorders.
This program admits outright not all needles distributed will be collected. Needles are already commonly found in our parks, beaches, waterways, canyons, and sidewalks.
Within one year, as many as 500,000 needles could be distributed in our region, without any mechanism in place to compel users into treatment.
By giving out needles and drug paraphernalia, we are enabling and implicitly condoning illegal drug-use without accountability or requirement for treatment.
“Harm reduction” is an umbrella term used to describe a variety of methods aimed at helping those struggling with addiction get access to services, education, and resources.
We want to help our communities by providing resources such as overdose prevention education, naloxone (an overdose-reversing drug), sexual health education, and information about available behavioral health and social support services.
However, using
tion with the resources to break their addiction and tackle root causes of substance-abuse.
These members of our community need substance-abuse treatment and rehabilitation. Tax-payer dollars would be far better spent on treatment, outreach, and prevention.
We ask for all partners, County, State, and our valuable non-profits, to refrain from funding or providing needle exchange services in our cities and communities.
Instead, we ask for your help in addressing the root causes of substance-abuse, by providing prevention resources, education, and treatment programs to encourage healthy change. We insist on providing a hand up, not handouts that perpetuate illegal drug use.
Together, we can help put people on a path to recovery and help end of the cycle of abuse.

But there’s a way to evaluate who might vote and how they’ll lean if the new initiative, which states simply that “local land use planning or zoning initiatives approved by voters shall not be nullified or superseded by state law,” makes the November 2024 ballot:
Check out what their stake might be in its outcome.
This is where things begin to look optimistic for the measure. A new study from the UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies reveals that the vast majority of California’s most regular voters have a large stake in matters of preserving neighborhood character and ambiance.
Only 39% of registered voters have voted in at least five of the last seven elections, thus making them almost certain to vote next fall in the presidential election of which this initiative seeks to be part.
Out of that 39%, 7 in 10 are 50 or older and 7 in 10 are also white. Fully 68% of this cohort own their homes, and 55% are college graduates.
Taken together, these facts indicate a large percentage of those certain to vote will feel they have a large stake in defeating this measure.
Yes, for some, laws like 2021’s SB 10, which allows as many as six
The Berkeley IGS study shows homeowners are more likely to vote in large numbers than any other single California grouping, regardless of race. Hundreds of thousands of Blacks and Mexican- and Asian-Americans own homes in California and want to preserve the character of places where they have invested.
Add to this the utterly whimsical numbers game played by the state’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), in charge of enforcing the new laws, which amounts to a one-size-fits-all plan for increasing California’s housing density in current cities while leaving outlying exurban lands largely vacant.
Back in 2018, Gov. Gavin Newsom claimed the state needed to build 3.5 million new dwellings by 2030, or about 300,000 per year.
Even during today’s housing boom, only a fraction of that much has been built each year since. Meanwhile, HCD has revised its estimated need, first to 1.8 million, and now to 2.5 million.
All of which might leave voters scratching their heads, especially those who already doubt the wisdom of greater density.
Put it all together, and this measure definitely has a chance.

By Laura Place SOLANA BEACH —
The beloved Tidewater Tavern was filled to bursting on Saturday for a dual celebration — that of owner Sam Lunde’s 60th birthday and nearly three decades of memories at the bar and grill ahead of its closing.
Lunde, who founded the tavern along Coast Highway 101 in 1994, announced that he would be closing shop after Labor Day following a 29-year run.
While he hesitated to call it retirement, Lunde said it felt like the right time to move on.
“It’s a little bit bittersweet, but mostly happy. It’s not as easy as it used to be,” Lunde said.
The tavern owner has been working in food service since the age of 11, when he started as a dishwasher in Solvang in Santa Barbara County.
He moved to Solana Beach in the 80s to work at Kona Grill and, years later, purchased the property of a Chinese restaurant called Mandarin Coast at 221 North Coast Hwy 101. This would eventually be opened as Tidewater Tavern; the rest is history.
Along with favorite drinks like The World’s Best Mai Tai, the tavern has fed many hungry customers over the years with signature burgers, hand-cut calamari tacos and sandwiches, homemade dressings, salsa and chips.
On Saturday, the birthday/closing celebration filled the building and spilled out onto the sidewalk. Underneath a “happy birthday” banner above the
bar, Lunde received hugs and handshakes from longtime customers and friends.
Lunde said the premises are set to become a pizza place.
The North County woman behind a failed multimillion-dollar horse show at the Del Mar Fairgrounds over a decade ago was arrested earlier this month on charges of soliciting the murder of her husband.
Tatyana Remley, 42, was arrested at a Starbucks on Loma Santa Fe in Solana Beach on Aug. 2, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. She is being held without bail at the Las Colinas Detention Facility.
Tatyana allegedly sought someone to murder Mark Remley, her husband of 12 years, sometime between July 1 and Aug. 2, according to a criminal complaint.
Along with solicitation of murder, Tatyana is facing two weapons charges
— carrying and concealing three firearms not registered in her name in a vehicle, a felony; and carrying a loaded firearm in a public place not registered in her name, a misdemeanor.
She was previously ar-
rested in early June for a felony vehicle theft charge, according to records.
Tatyana and Mark Remley both infamously led the production of Valitar, an acrobatic equestrian show set for a 45-show run at the Del Mar Fairgrounds in 2012. However, they pulled the plug after just a handful of performances, leaving dozens of performers and vendors in the lurch.
They were also the owners of Solana Beach cycling studio Rhythm and Power, which opened in 2015 and suddenly closed in mid-2016.
Tatyana was arraigned on Aug. 4 in Vista Superior Court, where she pleaded not guilty to all charges. A motion to set her bail at $50,000 was also denied by the judge.
Solicitation of murder can carry a sentence of three, six or nine years in California. The firearms felony charge could add anoth-
er year to that sentence.
The Sheriff’s Department and District Attorney’s Office both declined to share details regarding the circumstances of the solicitation. However, Mark told The Coast News that in early July, he was informed by the couple’s mutual friend that Tatyana had offered the friend $2 million to kill Mark.
Mark said he informed police about her alleged attempt to have him killed and that they were able to arrest her a month later via a sting operation.
He also alleged that just days after his wife made the offer to their friend, she intentionally set fire to the Rancho Reposo home they once shared in early July.

The Del Mar Fire Department confirmed that they responded to a fire at the property, which reduced the entire interior of the home to ash. The city declined to share further in-
formation.
The bomb and arson unit of the Sheriff’s Department is still investigating the cause of the fire and cannot confirm whether it was arson, spokesperson David LaDieu said.
In divorce petition documents from July, Tatyana Remley stated that the house burned down while she and a friend were present but that she did not know how the fire started.
Court documents from the past decade attest to an unstable and sometimes violent relationship between the couple, who have filed for divorce and reconciled multiple times since they married in 2011.
The pair most recently separated in May, according to court documents, with Tatyana filing for divorce in July. She has claimed that her husband verbally and physically abused her, stole and destroyed her property and cut her off financially.
Prior to this, Tatyana said the pair enjoyed a lavish lifestyle where she would spend upwards of $50,000 per month. She said she had unlimited access to credit cards and that Mark Remley owned luxury properties in Hawaii, Rancho Santa Fe and Coronado in addition to the Del Mar home.
In the July petition, Tatyana said she has no income since separating from Mark and asked the court to order him to pay $15,000 in monthly spousal support. She also requested to be granted exclusive use of the couple’s Del Mar home, two trucks, a horse trailer, an ATV and various pets, including parrots and goats.
“Wife is experiencing extreme financial strain. She is unable to maintain her realistic monthly expenses of just $12,000, much less [than] what she was accustomed to at $50,000. She has no income and does not have the same access to funds and assets that Respondent does,” Tatyana’s attorney Tiffany Brown said in a July divorce filing.
The filing also alleged that Mark Remley once put a gun to Tayana's head in front of an employee and another time chased her around their home with a knife.
She also claimed to have been sexually assaulted at gunpoint by one of her husband’s friends in May
The city of Vista is moving forward with the purchase of a future park site on Matagual Drive after confirming via a land appraisal that the city had come away with a favorable deal, city leaders said Monday.
The sale of the land at 536 Matagual Dr. near Vale View, owned by the Shadle family, is expected to close on Aug. 30.
The site had long been eyed as a site for a controversial hotel development before being considered as a possible park site. In June, the Vista City Council approved the $2.1 million purchase of the land with the commitment to make it into a public park after negotiating down from the Shadle’s original $3.5 million asking price.
An appraisal finalized Monday calculated the as-is market value of the property at around $1.4 million and the hypothetical market value after a zoning change at $2.4 million.
City Council members said this reaffirms the price they agreed to back in June.
“Ultimately, I do believe that the price that we arrived at is a very fair price, given the two different evaluation methods that were used … it was good to arrive at a price between those two prices,” said Mayor John Franklin.
The city obtained the retroactive appraisal nearly two months following the purchase agreement after drawing criticism earlier this month from some residents who wondered why the city had not appraised the land first.
In response, and at the behest of Franklin, the city began looking into establishing an appraisal policy.
However, officials found that the city actually had a policy on the books from 2003 requiring appraisals for land with a fair market value over $25,000, of which the city council and city attorney had been unaware at the time.
At their Monday meeting, City Council members reiterated that this was an oversight, and thanked the public for engaging in the process.
“I think all of us can admit we have blind spots, or we have different ways of going about a process, that we learn over time what our best practices are,” said Councilmember Katie Melendez. “I want to make sure we are following best practices as much as possible, and if there are opportunities for us to do something better, then being able to hear that feedback and
City Council heard updates from eight local organizations working to assist the homeless population in Encinitas and surrounding areas as part of a routine check-in with the Homeless Action Plan.
The HAP, adopted in 2019, aims to help the city better understand and assist the homeless population, which has stayed between 80 and 125 individuals over the last eight years according to point-intime data.
bors of the Clark Avenue
Apartments site in Leucadia have complained to the city and local law enforcement about squatters, fires and other safety issues on the currently vacant property.
Demolition and construction have yet to begin on the Clark Avenue Apartments project slated for a vacant lot between Clark Avenue and Union Street, leaving the existing structures in disarray.
Cristina Vega, who lived next door and spoke with The Coast News, described the property as messy and cluttered with random debris, including trash, gas cans and dead vegetation. Vega also told how several groups of squatters and other homeless individuals have trespassed onto the property and caused panic in the community by starting fires and engaging in other unsafe activities.
Earlier this year, Vega spotted flames from the property one night and called 911.
Vega, fearing for her safety, also alerted her neighbor, James Bailey, to the fire. During an Aug. 23 meeting, Bailey told the Encinitas City Council about how he attempted to treat the fire with his hose until firefighters arrived.
“This could have been a lot worse,” Bailey said.
Vega and Bailey have reported seeing an individual leave the property, intentionally lighting things on fire and throwing them into the surrounding vegetation.
“The next-door house has so much junk and plastic that it’s truly a hazard for fire,” Vega said. “It could destroy my house which is connected to 10 other homes with families and young kids. Our lives are in danger.”
The two have called the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department numerous
times to respond to squat ties’ hands were tied.
“We call the sheriff every day, but they can’t do anything about it,” Bailey said. “This is a ticking time bomb.”
According to Vega, authorities needed a trespassing notice to arrest anyone on the property. She contacted Brian Gilchrist, the property owner, to sign a trespassing notice.
At the council meeting, Mayor Tony Kranz told Bailey that the city would “make sure that something gets done.”
“It’s a nuisance and there will be action taken,” Kranz told The Coast News, adding that the fire chief is already involved.
Kranz said the property owner needs to be involved in fixing the problem, which may include requiring him to clean up the property or having the city clean it up and bill the owner for the work. The mayor also said more law enforcement surveillance of the area needs to happen.
The property has been untouched since the Clark Avenue Apartments project was approved last September. Vega wants to either see the property cleaned up or for construction to begin to dissuade more squatter activity.
Kranz said even after the City Council approves the project, the developer — Western National Properties — must undergo a “fairly lengthy” process to obtain all necessary demolition

Community Resource Center reported 65 permanent housing placements and actively engaging and case managing 264 unsheltered Encinitas households.
Despite the progress report, some residents expressed their concerns with the city's plan to address homelessness, especially the idea of building a navigation center in Encinitas to accommodate the local and regional homeless population.
According to the staff report, the city has identified a location in unincorporated San Diego County with existing buildings that can accommodate a homeless services center and expects to bring lease and service agreements sometime in October.
and construction permits. The current economic climate could also be a factor as to why work hasn’t started yet.
“None of that is an excuse,” Kranz said regarding the current state of the property.
Western National Properties did not respond to a request for comment.
Vega said responding sheriff’s deputies have been helpful and one of the regular trespassers was recently arrested following Gilchrist’s signing of the trespass notice.
Two motorists were injured this week, one fatally, in a collision on a rural roadway north of San Marcos.
The fatal wreck occurred about 5:30 a.m., when a 23-year-old man lost control of the BMW 330ci he was driving on Deer Springs Road, west of Interstate 15 in the unincorporated Mesa Rock area, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The eastbound sedan veered to the left directly in the path of an oncoming Toyota Tacoma pickup truck, CHP public-affairs Officer Hunter Gerber said.
The resulting collision near Mesa Rock Road left the driver of the BMW mortally injured. The Fallbrook resident, whose name was withheld pending family notification, died at the scene.
Paramedics took the 61-year-old Murrieta man who had been driving the Toyota to a hospital for treatment of severe injuries, Gerber said.
The cause of the collision was under investigation. Intoxication was not believed to have been a factor, the spokesman said.
So far this year, the team averages 10 to 15 proactive contacts with new subjects per week, two to five follow-up contacts, three to five encampment abatements — which can range from cleanups of small amounts of trash to large cleanups involving CalTrans — and three to five Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design projects.
The McAllister Institute also works with the sheriff’s department on outreach in the early morning and late at night.
The institute served 316 people from July 2022 to June 2023.
In addition to the outreach, McAllister operates Kiva Learning Center for Women and Children — a substance abuse treatment center — 10 outpatient programs for sober living, family reunification services and rental assistance.
They reported guiding 213 clients to permanent housing, 90 to interim housing, referring 147 clients to behavioral health services and providing assistance and benefits to 193 others.
The county’s Department of Homeless Solutions and Equitable Communities reported about 40,000 client engagements countywide and 1,241 engagements in Encinitas specifically, 98 of which led to housing, in the last fiscal year.
Jewish Family Services reported housing 30 individuals, positively reuniting 12 households with family, and serving a total of 131 households comprising 161 individuals.
People Assisting the Homeless reported serving 179 individuals in the North Coastal region with 51 pos-
“I believe we need to have a plan but I don’t feel a homeless shelter is appropriate for Encinitas,” said resident Jeryl Anne Kessler. “Please partner with the county on this I believe they may funding for this or can access it. I don’t have the answers but each person’s story is different and one size does not fit all. Please respect the community’s wishes on this. Look into programs that have successful homeless action plans.”
Resident Elena Thompson said she is worried the city is headed toward a larger homeless population by expanding its services and not effectively enforcing local ordinances.
“Residents are concerned about the enablement of the homeless in Encinitas with never-ending ‘programs’ and ‘free grant monies,’ concerned about the city being soft on enforcing municipal code and wanting to assure that Encinitas does not become plagued by the homeless damage seen in other California towns and cities (San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara, Venice, etc),” Thompson wrote. “Residents are also concerned about the growing presence and role of the CRC in our downtown, and the magnet it has become with its inviting, no-strings-attached free food programs in our core business and entertainment area. This is not about politics, it’s about common sense and sound leadership.”
It’s a nuisance and there will be action taken.”

homes and 60 three-bedroom homes, with 15 of the homes reserved for “very low” income households. All units will be for sale, not for rent.
The Planning Commission approved the project, but the Encinitas Community Collective filed an appeal at the end of May arguing the development would, in fact, negatively impact the environment and public health.
The appeal prompted city staff to investigate seven areas that could potentially give the council reason to override the Planning Commission’s decision or add contingencies to it: an easement, whether the staircase to the roof is considered a floor, the date of the application versus the date the latest city design standards were approved, several environmental concerns and conditions of public approval.
Staff found no reason for the council to override the decision.
“The project is consistent with the goals and policies identified in the [Local Coastal Program] and staff continues to support the recommendation of approval of the project,” said Anna Colamussi, the city's assistant development services director.
Community members disagreed.
“There is, of course, a long list of adverse effects these new developments will have on the community so I’ll keep it to the bulletin: erosion of wildlife habitat — as a Native American, that really strikes a chord with me — increased pollution, community safety issues and education overcrowding,” said Erin Nicole Stephenson, who has lived in
Encinitas for 38 years.
Scott Campbell, a software engineer who said he’d be able to see the new development from his backyard, raised grievances with the architecture of the development, the potential vehicle congestion on Piraeus Street and Leucadia Boulevard and the visual impact on the I-5 corridor.
Campbell said the buildings don’t match the architectural character of the neighborhood. The structure is not near public transit, and the travel time analysis was based on a 55 55-mile-per-hour speed
limit where the speed limit on Leucadia Boulevard is 40 and Piraeus Street is 45.
The California Coastal Act lists one of its goals as the ability to “enhance and restore the overall quality of the coastal zone environment,” and Campbell said the construction would contradict that goal.

Many speakers echoed concerns about the scenic beauty of the area.

Ultimately, Ehlers was the only “no” vote, with Councilmember Kellie Hinze absent.

small town ambiance and glow of this rare gem.”
Lou Schaefer pointed out city policies that could necessitate an override.
City land use policy says, “The construction of very large buildings shall be discouraged where such structures are incompatible with surrounding development,” and Piraeus Point is a large building.
“I do not hold Lennar in any harm or bad feelings,” Schaefer said. “This is their job. They’re a very public company and they’re loud about the fact that they make a lot of money … Our job as the residents is to come to you guys who voted here to protect us.”
“I’m sitting here with very mixed feelings,” Councilmember Allison Blackwell said. “I do support development that adds more affordable housing to our city, but I’ve listened to all these neighbors and this project is not a great project from their perspective. It’s clear.”
Despite these mixed feelings, Blackwell, Mayor Tony Kranz and Deputy Mayor Joy Lyndes felt obligated to approve the project.
Council members shared worries about the success of the project.
“This project is bound
“I acknowledge your reasons for being here to oppose this project are real,” Kranz said. “I feel it, I understand it, but in the end, we're up against state housing law — Housing Accountability Act — and so, as I look at this project within the four quarters of the law, I don't know how we can deny it.”

The term “Made in the USA” suggests better craftsmanship, superior products and supporting American workers.
Victorian philosopher John Ruskin observed: “There is scarcely anything in the world that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little more cheaply. The person who buys on price alone is this man's lawful prey.”
Imported goods typically offer lower prices. This strategy of low prices first, quality second has helped build many Third World economies.
That all jumped to mind while reviewing an LA Times ad for Kraus Stairlifts. Stairlifts are mechanized chairs that run on a track up your stairwell. They’re for folks unable to easily negotiate stairs without help.
I usually take stairs two at a time and typically skip these advertisements. Plus, Kraus’ business cardsized ad and nondescript photo wasn’t very compelling. Without a website address, a consumer’s choices were calling or turning the
— ArtWalk Carlsbad is back on Armada Drive just above the Carlsbad Flower Fields for its fourth year, bringing fine art, live music and interactive art experiences all for free to attendees.
The weekend-long festival Sept. 9-10 focuses on fine art for sale by artists who travel from all over the U.S. and Mexico to show and sell their work. In a venue overlooking the ocean, guests can explore different facets of art while enjoying beautiful coastal views.
The festival will display every medium of art, including painting, sculpture, glass work, fine jewelry and photography. More than 150 fine artists will feature their work, along with interactive art for families at KidsWalk and a full palette of musical performers, food trucks and stands, and beer and wine options.
ArtWalk Carlsbad is part of ArtWalk San Diego, which promotes the experience of owning original art.

Though tempted to move on, the line “Made in USA Quality” caught my eye and made me ask, “What does that really mean?”
My first thought was their products are made overseas. A foreign manufacturer implying they manufacture to American standards would, while technically true, be a weaselly way to appeal to “Buy American” shoppers.
As I greatly respect my bride’s opinion, I asked her thoughts about the ad. Her response: “It’s made somewhere else.”
So much for my being too cynical!
I finally called Kraus’ switchboard to ask where their products are made, only to learn everything’s manufactured in Wisconsin and Florida.
My next question: Why the odd tagline? Why not just say Made in the USA?
All efforts to find someone to speak with resulted in a disconnected phone line, so we may never know.
My guess is the Kraus marketing folks didn’t follow the KISS axiom (“Keep it simple, Stupid”). This failure generated unnecessary questions and suspicion where none needed to exist.
This is a lesson worth remembering as you create your own marketing materials in the coming days. Remember, customers are watching everything you do, and one errant word could be enough to make someone skeptical.
Don’t make your marketing counterproductive. Getting too fancy building the right messaging might make things more complicated than they need to be and lose you sales in the process.
With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

ENCINITAS — The Encinitas Educational Foundation and the Encinitas Union School District have partnered to create a new honor choir program for students throughout the school district.
The new program, called “EnSINGnitas,” intends to spur a passion for singing and the performing arts in students while simultaneously fostering their personal growth. The program allows each child to be celebrated for their talents through meaningful and collaborative experiences in the performing arts.
To help oversee the pro-
gram, EFF has named Britta Ellis as the honor choir’s director.
Ellis is a mom to two Mission Estancia students and has over 25 years of experience in education and the performing arts. She studied musical theatre at UCLA, earned a master’s in education focusing on social and emotional learning from the UC Santa Barbara, and is professionally trained in vocal performance with New York City stage experience. She also is the founder of Broadway West, a musical theatre and writing program that focuses on the love of the arts, creativity
and highlighting each child’s strengths.
“The arts are an essential part of education and have the extraordinary power to unite people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences,” Ellis said. “My vision for this choir is to harness that power, creating an ensemble that not only achieves exceptional musicality but also fosters a profound sense of community and belonging among its members.”
Ellis will work alongside the district’s choir leads at each of its nine school sites. For more information about the honor choir program, visit eefonline.org.
Kirby is pet of the week at Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He is a 4-month-old, 6½-pound, male, domestic shorthair cat with a buff tabby coat.
Kirby was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society from a local rescue partner through Friends of County Animal Shelters.
When Kirby arrived, the animal care attendants noticed right away how friendly he is. He has lots of energy; when he gets excited, he can go a little wild as he runs around the cattery.
Kirby likes to stay on the move, exploring everything around him — people, toys or other cats. He could live with kids 12 years of age or older, and he might like living with another active cat.
The $125 adoption fee includes a medical exam, neuter, up-to-date vaccinations, registered microchip and a one-year license if the new home is in the jurisdiction of San Diego Humane Society’s Department of Animal Services.
For information about adoption or to become a virtual foster, stop by Rancho Coastal Humane So-
ciety at 389 Requeza St., Encinitas, call (760) 7536413 or visit SDpets.org.
*** Meet Gina, the 10-year-old black, domestic shorthair cat who is pet of the week at Helen Woodward Animal Center.
When people first see her inside her enclosure — curled up into herself on her cat tower — they might think she’s unfriendly. She’ll raise her head and cast a seemingly malevolent glare, and she doesn’t greet guests right away, but she becomes surprisingly friendly once visitors gain her trust.
Gina’s adoption fee is $90.
All pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center are altered and upto-date on vaccinations and micro-chipped for identification.
Helen Woodward Animal Center is at 6523 Helen Woodward Way in Rancho Santa Fe. Kennels are open Wednesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (by appointment only).

— Following four seasons in the second-division United Soccer League Championship, the San Diego Loyal Soccer Club will fold after this season, club chairman Andrew Vassiliadis announced Aug. 24.
The Loyal are fifth in the USL Championship’s Western Conference and are in playoff contention. The announcement follows the club’s most successful season, with a run to the Western Conference quarterfinals.
“For those of you who’ve gotten to know me, spent some time talking to me, you know how much this hurts for me to say,” Vassiliadis said in an emotional video message announcing the team’s final season. “I love our city, I’m born and raised here and I’ll always be loyal to San Diego.”
In May, when Major League Soccer announced the expansion of the league to San Diego, Vassiliadis said the team wasn't “going anywhere”
However, in the past six months, he and SD Loyal President Ricardo Campos looked for viable options to keep the team, academy and training facilities afloat, before coming to the conclusion the team will close up shop at the end of the season.
The Loyal will join a long list of now-defunct San Diego soccer teams, including the Flash, Pumitas, Gauchos, Top Guns, Nomads, an indoor and outdoor iteration of the Sockers and Jaws and the Toros.
USMNT legend Landon Donovan was previously head coach of the Loyal, and was named executive vice president of soccer operations in December 2022.
That same month, SD Loyal entered a goodwill partnership with Lincoln City F.C. of Lincolnshire, England.
Ten games remain in the Loyal’s season, including four at home and the final home game on Oct. 7 against the Oakland Roots — the team that knocked the Loyal out of the playoffs in 2022.
“So I have an ask. As we head into this last two months of the season, I ask that you continue to fight with the club, I ask that you come celebrate and not mourn what we have done over the last four years,” Vassiliadis said. “I ask that you come join us at Torero [Stadium] for our final four home games and represent your community — come together as friends and family and cheer us on as we push once again to make it to the playoffs, and who knows what happens after that.”
By Steve Puterski CARLSBAD —Over the weekend, the Carlsbad High School football team put the rest of the county on notice: The Lancers are here to win.
Carlsbad routed visiting Mater Dei Catholic 48-14 on Aug. 26 in front of a sold-out home crowd at Swede Krcmar Stadium and a nationally televised audience on ESPN2.
The Lancers raced out to a 20-0 lead in the first quarter after a pair of rushing touchdowns from running back Mason Walsh and Colton Thomas’ 20-yard interception return for a touchdown.
Carlsbad continued the blitzkrieg against the Crusaders (0-2) with 21 points in the second quarter, heading into the locker room with a 41-0 lead. Walsh, who scored three touchdowns in the first half, has 22 total touchdowns in the past 14 games.
Carlsbad senior quarterback Julian Sayin, who recently committed to Alabama, threw for 138 yards, rushed for 63 yards and tossed a pair of touchdown passes to Lancers receivers Will Cianfrini and Josh Ball.
Cianfrini made a circus-like grab, tipping the ball with one hand before securing the reception.
“We got a bunch of good players returning and they’re a mature bunch,” CHS head
coach Thadd MacNeal said. “Overall, we did some really good things, took care of the football and executed on third downs.”
Carlsbad has now won 19 of its last 20 home games and looks to be a frontrunner for the CIF Open Division Championship for the fourth consecutive season. There is optimism around the program for the Lancers to finally break through and win the CIF title after three losses, including a heartbreaking defeat to Lincoln last year.
The Lancers’ defense bottled up Crusaders running back Anthony McMillian, a San Diego State commit, and quarterback Kartell Purvis, who had almost no time to set up in the pocket.
The Lancers were able to demobilize Mater Dei Catholic’s offense to the point where the Crusaders struggled to cross midfield in the first half.
Carlsbad’s offense, led by Sayin, took advantage of great field position all night and was firing on all cylinders on the ground and through the air.
“There’s a little bit of jitters, you’re playing on national TV and want to look good,” Sayin said. “Mason is my guy, he’s someone I can lean on. He’s a baller and I definitely love having him in the backfield.”

For Debbie Nasim, it was a rare unforced error.
“I never check my racket bag,” Nasim said. “Never! But I did it this one time and now they don’t know where it is.”
Nasim is back at her Cardiff home after competing in last week’s Maureen Connolly Cup at the International Tennis Foundation Masters Team Championships in Portugal.
The steady Nasim, a former pro player, seldom makes a glaring mistake on the court.
But after the four-woman team Nasim captained took third place in the 55-and-older category, Air Canada couldn’t place her luggage.
It will show up — Nasim hopes — just like she does whenever a chance comes to represent Uncle Sam.
She’s donned the red, white and blue since 2015, playing on various surfaces from Portugal to Croatia to Turkey to South Africa.
“Every year is different, a different experience,” she said. “But it’s always fun.”
Nasim, 56, found joy chasing a fuzzy yellow ball since she was 7. Her dad, Tom, was a schoolteacher, but his side hustle was teaching tennis for the Los Angeles Parks and Recreation Department.
Of his two daughters, Nasim was the hustler on the court.
“I became his No. 1 prodigy,” she said. “I had that competitive gene since I was young and would be at the courts all day, with my father teaching class after class.”
Turns out the teacher’s pupil was a heck of a student. Nasim embraced tennis and soon became one of America’s top female junior players.
She won the prestigious Orange Bowl tournament and advanced to draws in the junior divisions of Wimbledon, the US Open and the French Open, where she was a finalist.
“I was a very good junior player,” she said. “When I hit 15, I moved up to the 18-year-old division and was No. 1.”
Her top priority became turning pro, and she did just that at the ripe old age of 17. She was coached by Robert Lansdorp, who worked with the likes of Tracy Austin, Pete Sampras and Maria
Sharapova.
One look at Nasim’s silky-smooth forehand recalls another all-time great — Chris Evert.
“It shows my age,” Nasim said with a chuckle, “but it’s hard to change at this point.”
Just like the trials and tribulations on the professional tennis tour never cease.
When Nasim reached her 20s, she was ranked among the world’s top 35, but was ready to tap out. Her barking right shoulder hindered her serve to the degree that tennis became a chore.
“I wanted a normal life,” she said.
Nasim got busy raising her family while compromis-
ing on raising her racket. But tennis never left, as she began giving lessons and itching to play again.
But before we continue, know that Nasim — known as Debbie Spence — won a pro San Diego event at Balboa Park in 1984, her lone tournament win on the circuit.
Fast-forward to 2007 in the final Acura Classic at La Costa Resort and Spa. Before Sharapova won, oncourt announcer Fred Lewis presented a trivia question to the capacity crowd: Name the winner of the first San Diego women’s pro event.
Someone yelled “Debbie Spence” and soon she was down on the court telling Lewis she was in the house.
That day Nasim stood on the court with the triumphant Sharapova in a classic picture of San Diego champions, past and present.
“The difference between when I won it and Maria?” Nasim asked. “I won $750, and she won about $180,000.”
Much like Nasim’s love for tennis, the San Diego Open has been resurrected with the current edition being held Sept. 9-16 at the Barnes Tennis Center. The 28-player field, which includes American Coco Gauff and Tunisian Ons Jabeur, is impressive.
Maybe by then, Nasim’s luggage will have completed its safe passage. What a long, strange trip it’s been for Nasim and her baggage.
“I’ve been to a lot of places,” she said. “My dad thought I was nuts to quit playing tennis when I was making money, and now I’m playing and not making any money.”
Nasim is rich in other ways, honing her game for nearly five decades.
“It really is a sport of a lifetime,” she said. “As long as I’m on a tennis court trying to figure out how to win a point, it’s a privilege to be out there.”
Now, if Air Canada can only figure out where Nasim’s racket bag is located.

Unified School District board has changed its public comment policy at board meetings, leaving some residents frustrated about the change.
During the Aug. 21 meeting, the board approved a revision that moves its public comment on agenda items to the beginning of the meeting and limits each person to three minutes to speak about any topic on the agenda item.
Previously, members of the public had three minutes to comment on an item once it was called and prior to board approval.
According to Donald
Bendz, director of communications for the district, the change honors requests from the public to move public comment to the beginning of the meetings.
“For example, if you had two or more items to comment on, and one was at the top of the agenda and the others were at the end of the agenda, a speaker would sometimes have to wait 30 minutes to an hour to make their second comment,” Bendz said via email. “By moving this to the front of the meeting, we are honoring the request from the public and giving them the opportunity to comment on multiple agenda items much
The American Legion Post 416 Foundation met Aug. 26 to launch its fundraising campaign to renovate the Post 416 building at 210 W. F Street in Encinitas, the city’s oldest continuously operating business at nearly 100 years old. The foundation’s goal is to raise $6 million to modernize and improve the historic building.

earlier in the meeting without having to wait for the item to be called.”
Bendz noted that the public comment period on non-agenda items will still be the last item on the agenda before meetings end.
The board also stopped broadcasting its board meetings through KOCT, Oceanside’s public access television station, meaning there will no longer be a live stream for people to watch from home or recordings of meetings to watch later. The Aug. 21 meeting was not broadcast or recorded.
Bendz explained that the board only began broadcasting its meetings because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“OUSD has never before broadcast our board meetings on KOCT,” Bendz said. “When federal and state Covid restrictions expired last spring, we did not renew our contract to broadcast board meetings for this school year.”
Some regular public participants at school board meetings are upset about the change.
Todd Maddison, an Oceanside resident, parent of a former student and regular critic of the district, called the changes “some of the most extreme ‘anti-parent’ moves” and “some of the most severe restrictions on public comment” he has ever seen.

ENCINITAS — North Coast Highway 101 in Leucadia was brimming on Sunday with artists displaying their creative works for thousands of visitors during the 17th Annual LeucadiART Walk.
The walk, organized by the Leucadia 101 Mainstreet Association, distin-
guishes itself from other art markets by being free from corporate sellers or imported goods. Instead, visitors enjoy fine art and handmade wares from artists both local and from throughout California, along with food, beer and live music.
Some artists, like Frank Wessels of Santa Cruz, have
been selling art at the walk for many years. In his tent at Leucadia Roadside Park, Wessels displays his linoleum and woodcut prints that he has been making for decades, featuring landscapes as well as oceanic motifs.
“I think the people here are awesome and very positive. It’s fun to talk art with
people,” said Wessels, a seven-year veteran of the event.
A few tents away, Kate Joiner of Carlsbad also captures the local beauty of the North County coast in her unique paintings. Her neon-imbued landscapes of Coast Highway and iconic spots like Swami’s and Boneyard Beach draw in viewers.
“I kind of do it in an intuitive way, and see where it’s going,” Joiner, at LeucadiART Walk for her second year, said of her work.
Along with viewing art scattered between seven “artist pavilions” along the 101, folks also enjoyed libations at the beer garden, visited local brick-and-mortar restaurants and shops,
and jammed to live music. Young children took a brush to their own canvases in a guided painting class. Visitors also had the chance to view artists in action at the event.
Artist Skye Walker created live art on the wall of 101 Wine Company, refreshing and adding to his preexisting mural at the site.
Robert and Arlene have an appreciation for beautiful things—like the way the light reflects off the water at sunset. They note the subtle changes from evening to evening, watching from their balcony at Carlsbad By The Sea. They have also acquired an impressive collection of both bridge and biking partners in their new home in North County.
The Carlisles are especially interested in discovering the intersections between the vibrant retirement community and greater Carlsbad. Given the gallery next door and the proximity to a multitude of restaurants, cafés and shops, they expect to make many new discoveries in the coming months. In their free time, they enjoy organizing community cookouts, helping out on the philanthropy advisory committee, and exploring the miles of coastline just outside their door.

“Even though I sliced my foot on the fin of the board and had to have stitches on my first time out surfing, I’ve been hooked ever since,” reminisces Mark Yamanaka, MD, a board-certified pulmonologist and critical care medicine specialist, who is the Medical Director of the Intensive Care Unit at Tri-City Medical Center (TCMC). “A high school friend wanted to learn how to surf and asked me to go with him because he was afraid of getting hurt –how ironic is that!”
Throughout his career of 30+ years, Dr. Yamanaka, as well as other doctors at TCMC, have treated surfers – both men and women – with a wide range of injuries, infections, ailments and diseases.
“Some of the most common injuries are within the neck, shoulders and back – particularly the lower back, hips and legs. These are more often related to wear and tear on the ligaments and tendons, than broken bones or dislocations. Lacerations, cuts and scrapes are also common. All of these types of injuries usually occur when a person hits a surfboard, like I did, or rocks or reef.”
Although surfers may worry about shark attacks, they are extremely rare. Painful stings from jellyfish, stingrays and other types of marine creatures are more frequent occurrences and can lead to infections, which should be treated quickly.
Dr. Yamanaka recommends that anyone who spends time in the ocean
locally, nationally or while traveling abroad, should get Hepatitis A and B vaccinations, as well as those required by the foreign country.
“Some of the beaches and waters are not as clean as they should be causing surfers to be exposed to viruses, bacteria and parasites that may cause disease or stomach upset, called gastroenteritis.”
Other ailments known to surfers affect their eyes, ears, nose and skin.
Surfer’s eye (pterygium) is a growth that can spread to the cornea and is caused by long-term exposure to wind, UV light and
bacteria in ocean water. Pink eye (conjunctivitis) occurs when the transparent membrane inside of the eyelid becomes inflamed and red; it is made worse by viruses and bacteria in the water.
Surfer’s ear (external auditory exostoses) is a slowly progressive disease involving bone growth around the ear canal due to irritation and chronic exposure to cold water. An ear infection (otitis externa) can result if water and debris are trapped behind the growth.
“This could be prevented by wearing a hat or earplugs, but most surfers
won’t do that,” said Dr. Yamanaka. “As a pulmonologist, I also see recurrent sinus infections and congestion in surfers, which can lead to a chronic cough.”
Too much exposure to salt water and its parasites or the rubbing of a wetsuit against the skin may cause an irritating surf rash, which is why many surfers wear a rashguard under their wetsuit. Since it is made of material that blocks UV rays, it can also help to prevent sunburn.
“Often these types of health issues can be prevented by using the right gear, knowing the limits
of your experience and observing your surroundings,” added Dr. Yamanaka. “But sometimes, surfers can end up in the emergency room, especially those from out-of-town or new to the sport, after experiencing a near drowning because they were unfamiliar with riptides and then panic. Any surfer can have an emergent event, such as a heart attack or stroke while in the water or be overcome by the extreme heat.
“The good news is, regardless if it is a big or small problem, or acute or chronic, many of the doctors, nurses and staff at Tri-City can relate because they are surfers too,” said Dr. Yamanaka. “Whether you need an Pulmonary/ Critical Care doctor like me, or an orthopedist, family practice, dermatologist or ENT, we’ve got you covered. We live by the coast too and know the unique health conditions that may occur from spending so much time in the ocean doing the sport that we love.”
Dr. Yamanaka continued, “We also know the importance of maintaining good physical and mental health and strive to impart that to our patients. Eating a healthy diet, exercising and stretching, and getting proper sleep helps us to be physically strong. But I think most of us would agree that we surf because it is a way to relax and decompress.”
“When I’m out in the ocean, I tend to ignore everything behind me and face the horizon to look for the surf coming in. The only time I look back at the shore is when I'm checking my landmarks. On a nice day, you have the sky, the surf and maybe a dolphin or two popping around. The other surfers are mellow and out there for the same reason – to rejuve -

Natural disasters reset the earth. It’s also a reset for us. Last month we discussed how to reset our minds, and this month I’d like you to focus on resetting your needs.
What do we really need? Water, food, shelter and support. We don’t need Amazon, YouTube, social media, etc., but we have evolved into such a consumption-based society. The more we have, the more we feel we are valued or matter.
Through all of our technology advances, we have lost a sense of ourselves, community and connection. In a lot of clients I see, it’s now a false sense of identity and connection. Most importantly, it’s teaching our youth how to connect; they didn’t experience pre-screen lives.
So it’s our job to help all of our loved ones detach from their phones, be face to face, and connect over conversation or a good meal, and reset back to the basics that truly fulfill our needs.
Let’s not wait for a natural disaster to motivate ourselves to connect or to give back. Let’s strive to connect daily. Let’s give back in ways we can. This doesn’t have to be a complicated or huge gesture either.
I think a lot of people hold themselves back because they don’t have the money to contribute or don’t know what to do. Start small and with something you are already good at.
We thank the community for your support recognizing Massage Concepts among the Best on the North Coast again this year!

In the U.S., someone is diagnosed with lung cancer nearly every two and a half minutes. The Outpatient Pulmonary Clinic at Sharp Memorial Hospital is working to change that.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. — more than colon, breast and prostate cancers combined — but its survival rate improves dramatically when caught early.

“Many people are familiar with regular screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies to help detect breast and colon cancer, but individuals are less familiar with low-dose computerized tomography (CT) screening to help detect lung cancer,” says Davies Wong, MD, board-certified pulmonary disease specialist and medical director of the Outpatient Pulmonary Clinic.
Many people don’t show symptoms of lung cancer until they are in advanced stages.

— Research-
ers at UC San Diego will use a $9.57 million grant to support a clinical trial to study a new treatment option for patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
NAFLD, an umbrella term for a range of liver conditions affecting people who drink little to no alcohol that can lead to cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver failure, impacts 24% of adults in the United States, according to the National Institutes of Health. It also has no U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved medications to treat it.
“Liver disease is a silent killer, and most people do not know they have a liver problem until it is advanced to cirrhosis because there
ered when talking to your doctor to decide if lung cancer screening is right for you.
Screenings are quick,
painless and may be covered by insurance. The experienced team of radiologists, radiographers and other expert clinicians at Sharp Memorial provide timely scheduling, the latest imaging techniques to detect
lung nodules, and prompt results.
“Commonly called a ‘spot on the lung’ or a ‘shadow,’ a lung nodule is a small abnormal area that is denser than normal lung tissue,” says Dr. Wong. “The good news is that approximately 95% of pulmonary nodules are not cancerous.” Special nodule tracking software used in the clinic helps identify nodules and ensure proper surveillance is completed. If a nodule is identified as a cancer risk, a pulmonary disease specialist can help determine the next steps in care.
In addition to lung cancer screening, the Outpatient Pulmonary Clinic provides comprehensive care for patients with other pulmonary diseases, including COPD, asthma and long COVID-19.
Sharp has pulmonary specialists across San Diego County focused on helping people improve their lung health.

will examine if an FDA-approved medication called semaglutide — commonly used for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes and obesity — could be a promising treatment option for patients with liver scarring caused by NAFLD, according to a university statement.
are no obvious symptoms,” said Dr. Rohit Loomba, chief of the division of gastroenterology and hepatology and director of the NAFLD Research Center at UCSD School of Medicine.
“The results from our study could have a global impact on clinical care for patients with NAFLD and other chronic liver diseases.”
Known as the SAMARA Study, the clinical trial
The trial will include 120 participants diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and obesity, who will either inject the drug or a placebo. Participants will administer the injection once a week and will follow a dose escalation schedule over a period of 16 weeks.
The participants will be screened with routine blood work and undergo a test for liver stiffness and liver fat using an ultrasound-based device in the patient’s primary care doctor’s office.
NASH — nonalcoholic steatohepatitis — is the most severe form of NAFLD and consists of excessive fat buildup in the liver, the researchers said.
Individuals who are overweight, have Type 2 diabetes or have a family member with NAFLD are at a higher risk of developing the disease.
According to Loomba, it’s anticipated that NAFLD will be the leading cause of liver transplantation in the United States by 2030, with Type 2 diabetes and obesity being major risk factors for significant liver fibrosis due to NAFLD.
The completion of the SAMARA Study will be followed by a larger, multicenter, international trial, officials said.
Carlsbad Imaging Center helps answer patients’ questions about their bodies through its self-referral body screening services.
The center offers a variety of different screenings that provide useful information that can guide patients in taking preventative measures and assist doctors in treatment.
Once the screenings are done, the images are processed and reviewed by the center’s board-certified radiology physicians. Patients will receive a complete report of their screenings along with copies of the images to keep in their records and share with their physicians.
Carlsbad Imaging Center offers a boutique atmosphere and is locally owned by married Drs. Afsaneh Maghsoudy and Brian Bigoni.
“They really care how their patients are treated,” said Jill Thompson, the center’s marketing representative. “We offer a very personal touch.”
One of the center’s most popular screenings is cardiac scoring, a pain-free, non-invasive exam that detects the amount of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries.
Coronary heart disease is the number one killer of men and women in the
United States. The primary cause of heart disease is the build-up of plaque in the arteries of the heart, which can cause the arteries to narrow.
The center also screens for lung cancer, the number one killer among cancers. Studies have shown that a CT screening can greatly
improve the likelihood of detecting lung cancer early.
The center’s low-dose screening CT technique is designed to provide the necessary clinical information while minimizing your exposure to radiation.
Patients can also obtain vascular and arterial screenings.
The center’s carotid ultrasound exam visualizes the main blood-supply to the carotid arteries.
The leading cause of stroke is significant narrowing or blockage of the carotid artery caused by a buildup of plaque in the artery walls, which is treatable.
Another option is an abdominal aortic aneurysm ultrasound, which is recommended for men and women aged 65-75 who have ever smoked, or men over 55 years and women over 65 years who have a family history of aneurysms.
The full body screening package combines the cardiac scoring, lung cancer screening, a carotid ultrasound and a comprehensive, high-resolution scan of the abdomen and pelvis. This scan looks at the carotid arteries and major organs.
Patients can also choose a body composition screening to provide lean and fat mass values, a virtual colonoscopy to detect premalignant polyps and early
When it comes to providing personal, high quality care for patients, Carlsbad Urgent Care in San Marcos stands out above the rest.
Unlike other urgent care centers that push patients in and out as quickly as possible, Carlsbad Urgent Care makes sure to spend time with its patients to get to the root of the issue and find the right treatment without emergency room wait times.
“You have to care about the patient,” said owner Steve Schutz. “We’re going to spend extra time and take extra care of them.”
Carlsbad Urgent Care treats sprains, broken bones, asthma, allergies, the cold and flu, and offers on-site laboratory services, pharmacy access and digital x-rays that are read by a radiology group in real time.
The care center is also equipped with a surgical room where lacerations, cuts and other wounds are treated.
Carlsbad Urgent Care also provides rapid Covid testing, school physicals, drug testing and pre-employment services.
If patients come in with a prolonged illness or injury, like a broken ankle, the center will help its patient connect with other physicians and specialists who are needed throughout the recovery time.
“We make the calls and follow up with specialists for our patients instead of sending them off to figure out who to call on their own,” Schutz said. “We find you a physician, make those appointments for you and make sure your records are transferred over to the next doctor.”
If something happens outside of business hours, Schutz and his team of physicians, nurses and assistants recommend patients to call its sister business, Temecula 24 Hour Urgent Care.
“If a child becomes sick at 10 o’clock at night, our 24 hour facility will be on hand for parents to walk through
what to do,” Schutz said. “We make sure you have the care you need when you need it.”
Schutz opened his Temecula facility 15 years ago and his San Marcos facility seven years ago when he recognized a need for high quality care at all hours throughout the region.
He credited Dr. Allen Phelps, a retired lieutenant commander in the U.S. Navy, for his work running both the urgent center.
“He is very passionate about medicine and helping the community,” Schutz said. “He takes the lead on many aspects of running the urgent care and makes sure that his patients are getting
cancer, and MRI screenings to help evaluate the brain, abdomen and pelvis without radiation exposure.
Unlike most imaging centers, Carlsbad Imaging Center has two MRI scanners for patients to choose from. They have an Open MRI for claustrophobic patients and a traditional Closed MRI.
“We really cater to our patients and their needs,” Thompson said. “We’re all about service. You can get an MRI anywhere, but what
kind of service can you get?”
Screening exams are not covered by health insurance. If a screening exam detects a medical problem, insurance providers will cover subsequent treatment to the extent allowed by each plan and possibly reimburse patients for the screening.
Carlsbad Imaging Center is located at 6010 Hidden Valley Rd., Suite 125. To schedule a screening, call 760-730-3536.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Casa de Bandini
— the margarita menu is as fun and delicious as I’ve had anywhere, and the food has always been spot-on.
The strolling mariachis also add an air of authenticity, and the whole atmosphere always seems to put me in a good mood, especially the outdoor seating. The restaurant recently invited The Coast News team to preview some of their new seasonal menu items.
In addition to catching up with my colleagues, I was impressed by everything on the new seasonal menu.
My top pick was the ceviche that arrived in a very sizable portion and was fresh and delicious, with fresh mango as a nice added touch. But honestly, I would second everything mentioned by The Coast News team.
I’ll start with Samantha Nelson, community news editor and reporter
covering Oceanside and Escondido, who had this to say about our lunch: “I expected the spicy salmon tacos to be my favorite dish on the seasonal menu, but I was swept away by the Nopalitos con Puerco – featuring tender pork sauteed with small strips of nopales cactus with a deliciously spiced salsa.”
Sue Otto is the advertising manager and longtime friend at The Coast News who has joined me on several Lick the Plate dinners and is quite the foodie. This was her take on
the experience:
“I thoroughly enjoyed the Ultimate Green Burrito. It was huge, and I had lunch for several days with leftovers! The tender, seasoned pork was perfectly balanced with tangy salsa verde. It was delicious and filling and, topped with more salsa and complemented with a dollop of sour cream. I also love the fresh salsa from Casa de Bandini — they make it fresh daily, seasoned and spiced perfectly. I slathered on extra salsa to the burrito and took a side dish home for later. The ser-

The Casa de Bandini team is so gracious, and they make you feel so welcome, almost like you are at someone’s home. Being a regular of the restaurant, this assignment was a perfect end to my hectic week, and I enjoyed my coworkers as we rarely get to go out for lunch together (we are always on deadline).
I go way back with Chris Kydd, associate publisher of The Coast News, it must be over 15 years now we’ve been working together. Over the years, Chris has connected me with some solid Lick the Plate recommendations, so I’ve grown to trust his culinary sensibilities.
taste buds dance and sing joyfully. The first-class, home-style beans and rice on the side made for a comforting refuge from the heat delivered by the Diablo sauce over the chicken. This dish was large enough to share and belongs on the main menu for less than $20.
“While the Salmon Tacos and Green Burrito were also noteworthy, the other star of the meal was the Nopalitos con Puerco. This dish changed my opinion about eating cactus. The texture was delightful after simmering in New Mexico chile sauce and using this particular chile variety was a stroke of genius.
vice we received was impeccable as well.”
Jordan Ingram, managing editor at The Coast News, had a clear favorite:
“I really enjoyed the Nopalitos con Puerco, a dish with pork and nopalitos (stems of the prickly pear cactus) cooked in a deep-red New Mexico chile sauce reminiscent (in my mind, anyway) of Chile Colorado. All in all, the seasonal menu was fresh, bright and tasty. And I expected nothing less from one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in North County.”
Kydd’s observations were detailed and spot on: “I was blown away by the flavors and textures on Casa de Bandini’s seasonal special menu. The refreshing Mango Ceviche with Pescado set the tone for a wonderful meal. Thick chunks of fresh mango and avocado blended perfectly with the tender marinated fish, cilantro, and onions. I’m stealing this recipe.
“The Spicy Chile Campana was my favorite of the five dishes we tried, and that’s what I’ll be ordering on my next visit. The chile flavor and cheese melted over the shrimp made my
“Nopal is removed from my do-not-eat list now… yum. The next time I have guests in town or a special occasion, I’m headed to Casa De Bandini, where it feels and tastes like old Mexico.”
And there you have it, firsthand testimony from part of the team that makes up the heart and soul of the best weekly community newspaper in San Diego. I’d say it warrants visiting Casa de Bandini to experience all these fantastic new menu items and more.

It’s hard for a beer enthusiast to leave San Diego’s 150 independent breweries and thousands of stellar beer selections. But brewery travels are the origin of I Like Beer the Podcast and have fueled my interest in craft beer and the folks making it.
So, this summer, I traveled up the coast to Oregon and Washington to learn more about the craft beer scene growing in those areas.
Besides the breweries, I found the coast of Oregon captivating in its beauty and variety of landscapes and outdoor opportunities. But I’ll leave travel writing to the experts and stay in my wheelhouse.
Here are a few of the 20 excellent breweries I was lucky to visit.
Newport Brewing: Located just above the historic Newport bayfront with stunning views of the bay and bridge, Newport Brewing has operated since 2019.
Brody Becksted, the owner, took a few minutes to show off his 15-barrel, custom-designed brewery and talk about his beer. Becksted is a Newport native, and the pride in his brewery, beers and staff was readily apparent.
I enjoyed the fish tacos with a Surfs Up lager, an American-style lager that had plenty of flavor and body for the style. But the star of the visit was the Tangerine Crush Coastal Wheat Ale.
This beer features a half wheat, half pilsner malt build brewed with local coastal waters drenched with juicy tangerine puree after fermentation. I enjoyed several tangerine ales on the trip; this was my favorite.
Rogue Ales: After visiting Newport’s newest brewery, I made the pilgrimage to Rogue Ales, one of the leaders in the modern craft beer revolution. Established in 1988, Rogue has maintained roles as both rebels and leaders in the industry.
Rogue’s general manager Charlie Branford took me on a tour of the massive facility. There, I met Renee,
an assistant brewer starting a fresh batch of Rogue’s signature beer, Dead Guy Ale.
I also met Jeff, who was in charge of canning Rogue’s next release, their seasonal pumpkin ale.
He was calibrating the system, which was running at about 100 cans a minute, which seemed very fast. But at full speed, the Rogue canning operation runs at 235 cans per minute.
Rogue takes risks with their beers, which always means there will be beers I love, beers I like, and beers I …well, that I don’t like as much.
The sneak peek (sneak sip?) of the Pumpkin Patch Ale was a real treat, but the main attraction for me was
the Hazelnut Brown Nectar.
This twist on brown ale always impresses me. Oregon is the hazelnut capital of the world (who knew?), so this was as fresh as a beer
and its ingredients can get. And, because I was touring the premises with Branford, I got to carry my pint around like a big shot.
Astoria Brewing: En route to Newport, Astoria is
a must-stop (or so I was told by several beer enthusiasts in Washington). It was solid advice. Lunch at Astoria Brewing overlooking the Columbia River was a visual delight for the tastebuds— more fish tacos made from fresh-caught fish.
Astoria Brewing had me at Strawberry Blonde, their flagship ale. It’s my favorite summer style, and their version didn’t disappoint. They claim the beer’s nose is “a punch of strawberry pie.”
True. The flavor was milder, crisper and delicious.
With a little more drive ahead of me for the day, I had to limit my tastes.
So I was excited to see Toast the Royals, a 3.4% abv mild dark ale. It’s an old English pub style, malty and a great beer to sip while watching the river float by from the patio.
Pelican Brewing: I first visited Pelican Brewing in 2012, and seeing the growth they’ve experienced since then was impressive.
The Siletz Bay location in Lincoln City offers extensive seating along the deck and indoor dining. Their beer lineup has won many awards, and this team knows its beer.
The Raspberried at Sea, made with Oregon raspberries, is light, sparkling and full of raspberry flavor.
The malt build balances the fruit, keeping it from being too sweet. Six packs of this fantastic beer went into the cooler but didn’t make it home.
As a habit, I like to ask brewers and beertenders where they go to get a beer
when they’re not enjoying their own.
This always leads me to some smaller, local locations.
I found the people everywhere willing to take a few minutes to share their stories and a beer. I’m already planning a return.

Iwant it on the record that I went into this week’s coffee exploration with the same optimism and excitement as always. I went to [REDACTED] looking for an opportunity to uplift a local business, drink a (hopefully) good cup of coffee, and, in this case, meet up with some other coffee industry professionals to swap stories about entrepreneurship.
It’s an important note, considering all of the redactions sprinkled throughout this week’s column to prevent you from knowing where I actually went! If you read this column regularly, you’ve probably noticed a few consistencies. One, I don’t drag a coffee shop through the mud if I don’t like the coffee.
Taste is subjective and to each their own. I will compliment roasters and cafes that I believe create a quality offering, but there are so many variables associated with taste that it would be a disservice to you, the reader, to dismiss cafes based on my taste buds alone.
Second, there isn’t a lot of negativity in this column generally. I’m going to let you in on a little secret. I’m not fond of writing mean things about my experience at a particular coffee shop, even if they are true. If I have a bad (or really bad) experience, I don’t write about that coffee shop!
This is why I find myself at a crossroads this week. I went to a local coffee provider. It was really busy. I went right to sit with my colleagues on the deck. It was a hot, sunny morning, but [REDACTED] has some lovely shaded outdoor spaces under umbrellas and foliage.
The vibe is classy yet casual. It is coastal with a hint of New England-inspired design. When the line came down, I ordered a shot of espresso. They offered a side of tonic water, which I always appreciate as a palate cleanser. I’ll interject that I was clear about wanting to drink my espresso “for here,” meaning at the cafe. The staffer behind the counter nodded and smiled.
The service was quite pleasant and more than competent. It was clear that they had hospitality train-
ing and skills.
I could see this column shaping up in my head. A glowing report on my experience at [REDACTED]. And then they called my name.
The espresso and tonic were served on a tray in a similar fashion to other local roasters that skew to the crafty side of coffee. Unlike other local roasters, each of the items in front of me — the tray, the espresso shot, the side of tonic — were served in or on single-serving containers.
My coffee order was responsible for three pieces of waste, commercially compostable waste, but waste nonetheless.
I can’t honestly say I recall if I enjoyed the coffee.
I was surprised by the presentation of my order by the aesthetic of the off-white cup against the off-white tray. Perhaps they ran out of reusable glassware. It is quite busy, I thought.
I peeked back inside. No coffee mugs. No Gibraltar glasses for shots. No pint or Collins glasses for iced coffees. [REDACTED] doesn’t offer any reusable product of any kind.*
Drinking an espresso is a quick affair by design. Even if you wanted to take it slow, it wouldn’t last more than several minutes of focused sipping. Espresso is a ritualistic endeavor for many and an immediate influx of caffeine for the rest.
Proper glassware aids the ritual and prevents untold quantities of waste from hitting the landfill. Compostable doesn’t mean sustainable, nor even more environmentally friendly.
This isn’t a column about sustainability. Nor is it meant to discourage coffee exploration, hence the crossroads I’ve found myself at. I enjoyed 90% of my experience at [REDACTED], but I feel uncomfortable uplifting them due to the impact they are causing in a world continually reminded that excessive human consumption doesn’t often lead to positive results. The 90% wasn’t worth the remaining 10%.
Being a consumer is hard work. Being a responsible consumer is even harder. Know that while you’re out there making choices, I’m here cheering you on, hopefully, with a good cup of coffee in my mug.
In the mid-1980s, San Diego lacked its now-thriving beer scene, devoid of fresh beer since Prohibition with no concept of “craft beer.” Undeterred, college friends Chris Cramer and Matt Rattner, inspired by an Australian brewpub, aimed to reintroduce local, handcrafted beer.
Cramer’s cousin, master brewer Karl M. Strauss, joined their efforts. On February 2, 1989, Karl Strauss Brewing Company opened in downtown San Diego, igniting the city’s craft beer revolution and propelling San Diego’s craft beer industry growth.
Despite living a few miles from the Carlsbad Karl Strauss Brewing Company restaurant, it has been years since my last visit. Hence, my excitement when Frank and I were invited to do a review. Karl Strauss is just across the street from Legoland and offers a family-friendly brew pub with outstanding food and craft beer.
Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Experience Ambassador Beatrice Guerrero, who sat us on the spacious back patio. Guests can also dine on the front patio or inside with TVs with the latest games on, providing guests with various seating areas.
Patrons are invited to engage with servers at the bar, ordering food and drinks while enjoying the chance to inquire about dishes and beers. Tastings are encouraged, and servers readily offer samples.
Unable to decide on a beer, shift captain and assistant manager Chad Rohrbeck recommended a flight for me featuring Tower X West Coast IPA, Aurora Hoppyalis IPA boasting pineapple, tangerine, and melon hints, and the juicy Boat Shoes Hazy IPA with citrus and tropical notes, my standout being Hoppyalis.
For appetizers, Chad suggested the seasonal Asada Fries heaped with carne steak, jalapeno beer cheese, avocado chimichurri, pickled onion, and cilantro.
We also savored “grownup” Ahi Poke Nachos with sashimi-style tuna, red onions, spicy firecracker sauce, sesame, and cilantro aioli, as well as the Crispy Brussel Sprouts accompanied by beer-brined bacon, feta, balsamic reduction glaze, and a sprinkle of Pecorino-Romano cheese, rounding out the impressive trio of starters.
Executive chef Gunther Emathinger, with 26 years at Karl Strauss, and Carlsbad’s chef Jorge Ortiz continued their culinary prowess after
appetizers.
Entrees included Beerbrined Pork Chops, eight oz. center cut loin chops brined in Red Trolley beer with spicy mustard firecracker sauce and fresh French green beans, and the 2022 SD Reader’s Poll-winning Mac on Tap, a 2023 Finalist too, allowing protein addons.
The Food Truck Burger, a mouthful of fresh ground steak trim patty, caramelized onions, pickled jalapeno, and melted gruyere on a brioche bun, had this burger aficionado unhinging my jaw to fit this delicious mon-
ster burger in my mouth.
The Blackened Mahi Taco plate featured three tacos with Guajillo salsa, cabbage, cheddar, cotija, chipotle sour cream, pico de gallo, and flavorful blackened mahi on flour tortillas.
Surprisingly, despite the shared appetizers and entrees, we indulged in the Beeramisu and Cali Mud Slide from the Seasonal Selections menu. The Beeramisu’s ladyfingers soaked in Wreck Alley Imperial Stout harmonized flawlessly with the stout’s rich dark chocolate, toffee, and espresso notes.
Wreck Alley also complemented the Cali Mud Slide — a mocha ice cream pie on a chocolate fudge cookie crust crowned with whipped cream, almonds, shaved chocolate, and caramel sauce.
Besides the breadth of killer dishes on the menu and putting San Diego on the map for craft beer, Karl Strauss is a great partner for lesser-known local craft breweries. The brewery's “Friends of Karl” program selects a handful of up-andcoming breweries to showcase on their menu, such as Black Plague Brewing, Owl Farm, and Ration Ale Brewing, currently being promoted.
With Oktoberfest coming up soon, I highly suggest checking out one of its eight SoCal locations: Downtown San Diego, Sorrento Mesa, Carlsbad, 4S Ranch, Temecula, Anaheim, Downtown Los Angeles, and Costa Mesa. Karl Strauss is opening a new beer garden in San Marcos this fall. Get more information at karlstrauss. com.

— The county Board of Supervisors voted 3-1 on Aug. 29 to support state legislation that would require a vote by all customers served by water districts within the County Water Authority before individual districts can leave the authority.
Proposed by Supervisor Joel Anderson in a board letter, the policy follows a July 10 decision from the San Diego Local Agency Formation Commission to allow the Rainbow Municipal Water District and Fallbrook Public Utility District to leave the water authority.
With a goal of finding lower water costs for farmers, both districts want to join the Eastern Municipal Water District in Riverside. No timetable for the districts’ departure was set.
On Aug. 21, the Water Authority filed a lawsuit over the proposed departure of the two water districts, alleging it would raise water rates for other county residents. The Water Authority contends the departures will shift around $140 million in costs that would have been paid by the Rainbow and Fallbrook agencies to the rest of the county's service area.
According to Anderson’s board letter, the proposed state legislation “would require that, in addition to affirmative votes by customers in the water districts attempting to leave
the CWA, an affirmative vote by a majority of all customers in the CWA service area would be required before proposed detachments become final.”
Before the vote, Anderson said a recent study showed the costs of Fallbrook and Rainbow water districts leaving would be passed onto other districts.
“If you’re gonna raise my water rates, I should have a right to vote on it,” Anderson said during Tuesday’s meeting.
Board Chairwoman Nora Vargas and Vice Chair Terra Lawson-Remer agreed with Anderson.
“If we allowed Fallbrook and Rainbow to defect, it would harm our entire region,” Lawson-Remer said in a statement after the vote.
Supervisor Jim Desmond was the lone no-vote and a strong critic of the proposal.
“I think it sets a very, very bad precedent for local control,” he said. “This is terrible.”
Anderson and Desmond are San Diego LAFCO members. Anderson opposed both water districts leaving the authority, while Desmond supported it.
Desmond said that as the San Diego LAFCO

chairman, his vote for detachment was driven by the Water Authority’s own municipal code on how a district may leave via giving formal notice and vote of its own ratepayers.
“That’s it,” Desmond said. “Period.”
Desmond added that the Water Authority policy on district departures had been the same for 50 years, and officials “could have changed their administrative code” if they felt it necessary.
Most of those speaking during a public hearing, including farmers, were in favor of the Fallbrook and Rainbow districts leaving the Water Authority.
Although Anderson's board letter does not specify any state legislation, speakers brought up Assembly Bill 399, sponsored by Assemblywoman Tasha Boener, a Democrat representing the 77th District.
That bill, called the Water Ratepayers Protections Act of 2023, would require a majority vote for agency withdrawal from a county water authority.
Stephani Baxter, of the Fallbrook Community Planning Group, said she was disappointed in Anderson, in part because he was not listening to his conservative constituents.
“You didn’t get your way at LAFCO, and this is your workaround,” she said.
Baxter told supervisors that if they voted in favor
of Anderson’s proposal, it would “show you trust you trust Sacramento over your constituents, and we'll see your true colors.”
Robert Jackson of the California Avocado Commission said the Fallbrook and Rainbow districts must pay a $24 million exit fee, which was appropriate. He asked the board not to interfere with the LAFCO decision, which was “not to be taken lightly.”
“We’re not asking for enrichment by separation,” Jackson said. “Indeed, this is a matter of survival for the avocado growers in north San Diego County.”
A woman who called in said that Fallbrook has “been overpaying for water for way too long,” and “if everyone else's bill in San Di-
ego County has to go up by one dollar, so be it.”
Several governmental and industry representatives spoke in favor of Anderson's proposal, including Encinitas Mayor Tony Kranz, who said the two districts’ departure would have significant effects on ratepayers of San Dieguito Water District.
He added that if the detachment proposal is fair, then voters will pass it.
Carol Kim of the San Diego Building and Trades Construction Council also brought up the fairness issue. “As a society, we agreed to collectively work together to make sure we all do better,” said Kim, who thanked the county for having the foresight to plan on future water needs.

“One of the most beautiful things we can give our children is music education.”
— Gloria EstefanEveryone loves and enjoys music. Whether listening, playing, or singing, we understand the gift that music brings personally and global.
Consider adding music education to your schedule by finding a local music school and enrolling in a group or private music education.
Here are a few benefits that are considered some of the top reasons to add music to your schedule this Fall.
Start learning Music Early: Early musical training will develop the areas of the brain related to language and reasoning.
The left side of the brain develops with music and songs help imprint information on young minds.
A Sense of Achievement: Learning to play music on a new instrument can be challenging but achievable. Those who master even the smallest goal will be able to feel proud of their achievements.
Kids stay engaged in school:
Music is fun and enjoyable. It keeps all children interested and involved.
Better Self-Confidence:
With encouragement from teachers and parents, students playing a musical instrument build pride and confidence.
Research also shows that music education can help students, even preschoolers, prepare for future endeavors.
It also helps with enhanced language capabilities, improved memory, hand-eye coordination, study habits, teamwork, and enhanced mental processing and problem-solving abilities.
— Camp Pendleton-based
Marines were aboard the Osprey aircraft that crashed in Australia, killing three service members and injuring 20 others, it was announced today.
Sunday’s MV-22B Osprey crash occurred during a “routine training exercise” on Melville Island, north of Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia, according to a statement from Marine Rotational Force-Darwin.
The three Marines killed in the crash were Cpl. Spencer R. Collart, 21, from Arlington, Virginia; Capt. Eleanor V. LeBeau, 29, from Belleville, Illinois; and Maj. Tobin J. Lewis, 37, from Jefferson,
Colorado, Marine Rotational Force-Darwin announced Monday.
According to Marine Rotational Force-Darwin, the Marines involved in the crash included some from 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, which
is based at Camp Pendleton, while others were from Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 363 based at Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
Among the injured Marines, one is in critical condition, two are in sta-

ble condition and 17 were treated for minor injuries and released, the unit said.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
“We are deeply saddened by the loss of three respected and beloved members of the MRF-D family,” said Col. Brendan Sullivan, commanding officer of Marine Rotational Force-Darwin. “Our thoughts and prayers remain with the families and with all involved.”
The deaths came three days after a fatal crash of an F/A-18D Hornet fighter jet near Marine Corps Air Station Miramar. Officials said Maj. Andrew Mettler’s plane went down Thursday during a training exercise.
had 9 items on it that allowed for individual comments,” Maddison said via email. “That would have allowed anyone interested to have spoken for 27 minutes – and this was a fairly limited meeting. Reducing that to 3 minutes is, of course, a 90% reduction in public comment time.”
Maddison said the change “effectively makes public comment on agenda items in OUSD useless.”
He also pointed out that the public is now expected to make public comments on items before viewing staff presentations.
“Few of these presentations are ever included in board documents prior to the meetings, and they are almost always only avail-
Maddison was also unhappy about the board stopping its broadcasts of meetings and said the board “took advantage of the cover” to pass the change to its public comment policy.
Some took their complaints about the school board meeting changes to the Oceanside City Council at the following evening’s meeting on Aug. 22.
“They start off disingenuously encouraging members of the public to speak, yet this entire amended bylaw does exactly the opposite,” said Sandra Martinez at the council meeting. “If someone actually had concerns on three of those items, there’s no way anyone can actually address that.”

was being funneled to both Blease and Miller.
Beach Colony fired Blease in 2021 and reported the alleged theft to the Sheriff’s Department. The department’s fraud unit investigated the case for nearly two years before they were able to make an arrest, according to Sgt. Marcello Orsini.
“The money was going away from the business side and funneling to both siblings,” Orsini said. “The majority was residents’ check payments. They
were not making their way where they were supposed to go.”
While the department has so far confirmed the redirection of just over $1 million, Orsini said they believe the total amount of Blease’s and Miller’s theft is much higher.
Blease and Miller are both being held at the Vista Detention Facility on $500,000 bail.
Both face as many as 22 years in prison if convicted, including a white-collar enhancement that carries an additional five-year sentence under California law.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This could be the time to try soothing whatever bad feelings might be lingering between or among colleagues, friends and family members. But be sure you do so without favoring any side.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) An idea is only an idea until you put that clever Bovine mind to work to develop it from concept to substance. This could lead to something rewarding, both emotionally and monetarily.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) The early part of the week could have disconcerting moments, but approaching them with a calm, unruffled attitude goes a long way toward helping things settle down nicely.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Getting used to change continues to mark much of the week. But accepting what you have to do makes adapting that much easier. A welcome visitor could turn up sooner than expected.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Before you seek the advice of colleagues about a potential career move, you might be better off getting counsel from someone who won’t be affected by the choices you make.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) It can be a challenging week for some relationships if the normal give-and-take flow changes, with one side doing most of the giving and the other the taking.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A new opportunity could bring with it much anticipation, along with some anxiety. Take time to sort out your options as well as your emotional considerations.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Are you sure you have all the facts you need to let that matter move to another level? Don’t be rushed into a decision unless, and until, you feel like it’s the right thing to do.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Pace yourself as you prepare to take on a more demanding project. Be careful not to let your energy reserves drain away. Take time to relax with people close to you.

— San Diego artist John Halaka draws attention to the frequently ignored experiences of people who, over time, have faced colonial erasure and forced displacement in a new Oceanside Museum of Art exhibit.
Appropriately titled “Listening to the Unheard/ Drawing the Unseen: Meditations on Presence and Absence in Native Lands,” the exhibit features Halaka’s drawings from two related, previous projects that “observe and creatively visualize the tensions between the emotional presence and physical absence of populations whose cultures have been devastated by the violent intrusions of settler-colonialism.”
The bulk of Halaka’s work reflects on the experiences of displaced Palestinian men and women who have been exiled from their homes and homeland since the 1948 partition of Palestine that created the nation of Israel in the aftermath of World War II.
According to Britannica.com, the birth of Israel led to a significant displacement of the Arab population in the region, who were either driven out by Zionist military forces before Israel declared independence and the start of the Arab-Israeli War on May 15, 1948, by the Israeli army after that date or who fled in fear of the violence that ensued.
Many of Halaka’s artworks are directly informed by stories he recorded during interviews with refugees and displaced individuals during trips to Palestine and the Middle East over the last few decades.
Years ago, when Halaka developed his interest
in the Palestinian conflict, he began his research by reading books on the subject. Once he started visiting and listening to stories of survivors, his perception changed considerably.
“It all became much more complex than all of the books I had read,” he said. His research on the subject has influenced his artwork over the years.
“Being on the ground and allowing the narratives of the culture, the experiences and the process of surviving a cultural genocide shape my work,” he said. “As an informed outsider, my job is not to manipulate the culture but to learn and absorb it through personal stories.”
Halaka was born in Egypt and immigrated to New York at 12 with his family. He moved to San Diego in 1991 to accept a professor position at the University of San Diego, where he teaches painting and drawing. His father is of Palestinian descent.
Other drawings of his honor the work of Native American and African American activists and scholars, as well as migrant farmers and laborers.
“While my research primarily focuses on the struggles of Palestinians, I try to identify links to those struggles here in African American and indigenous populations that continue to be erased and forgotten,” he said.
Halaka noted that the plights of these populations are often unnoticed, ignored and forgotten by the rest of the world.
“It’s convenient to look the other way,” he said. “We all benefit in the culture of colonialism, but the folks who have been erased from the cultures, the nations of people who have been pushed deep into the margins, and those who have been victims of genocide – their struggles are not invisible, they’re not mute – we’ve just always chosen to ignore them.”
Halaka hopes that people who see his exhibit look and listen carefully to the stories being told.
“Make an effort to listen, look and acknowledge those stories,” he said. “We have that responsibility as beneficiaries of the culture of colonization.”
Halaka’s exhibit will be displayed from Sept. 2 to Feb. 18, 2024.
hear that critique from the community, it only makes us better, and I really appreciate that.”
“I’m grateful that we did slow down the process and get the appraisal. Today, I'm still confident in the decision that we made,” said Councilmember Dan O’Donnell.
City leaders emphasized that obtaining this land for a park is a huge win for the community, especially due to the shortage of vacant land.
Unlike most available sites on the outskirts of the city, the Matagual Drive property is centrally located and can serve more residents, Franklin said.
Going forward, council members committed to having more discussions about land acquisition policy and procedures, as well as engaging the community in what they want to see at the future park.

Since 1985, Russell Bowman has been delighting residents of San Diego County with his plant and tree expertise.
Ihave ridden thousands of waves in my life.
These vary from perfectly peeling point breaks to board-snapping sandbars.
Some shone like mirrors of unbroken glass. Others had faces ruffled by offshore winds. Still others were thrashed after the wind turned onshore or side shore. Those aquatic humps had little in common other than that they were all masses of saltwater energy.
I rode them for the benefit of nobody but me. The few exceptions to my primarily selfish endeavors are the waves I rode at the Boys to Men 100 Wave Challenge. These were not solely for my enjoyment (although I did enjoy them quite a bit) but for the benefit of kids needing a mentor to help guide them through a sea of trouble.
I used to commentate the Boys to Men events until COVID sent us all scrambling to separate beaches where various teams raised money in lineups up and down our coast. Now, in these post-COVID days, we are again free to meet under one tent Sept. 16 at Mission Beach, just south of the roller coaster.
The concept of the 100 Wave Challenge is simple. Think of a walk-a-thon using surfboards rather than athletic shoes. Regardless of how well or poorly you surf, each of you is invited to join an established team, start your own team or ride solo.
As a side benefit, you will find yourself in the presence of some of the best surfers ever to touch wax.
World champion Shaun Tomson and legendary barrel monster Damian Hobgood will once again share the aloha and the stoke for all on hand.
You can get involved by riding 100 waves, riding one wave, or no waves as you lounge in the shade, sipping complementary health drinks, enjoying a message or tasting the mountains of organic snacks. It’s all good if that’s your deal.
For many San Diego families, the 100 Wave Challenge is the weekend trip they look forward to every year. To become involved, contact event co-founder Joe Sigurdson at joe@boystomen.org, or request a business card-sized flyer with a QR code by contacting Angelique at Angelique@boystomen.org.
The goal this year is to raise $500,000 for kids needing positive mentors. What a great way for you and your family to spend a few hours and teach your children lessons they may never learn in any school. See you there.
Three beloved La Jolla surfers, Buzzy Sipes, Guy Hansen and Craig Cranic, recently made the journey we will all someday take.
While I have no information on a memorial for Buzz or Guy, Craig’s wonderful life will be celebrated on Sep. 7 at 2 p.m. at Kellogg Park, the north end of La Jolla Shores.
Also, I’m grieved to report the passing of everyone’s best friend, Jim Machado, who is survived by his wife, Chris, and sons Justin and Rob.
So, it’s no wonder Bowman Plant & Tree Care Specialists have been named the San Diego Union-Tribune Community Press’ “Best of North County” voters’ poll for tree and plant care for a 2nd year in a row!
He is lovingly referred to as the San Diego “tree doctor extraordinaire” by his clients, Bowman is known for transforming sickly trees and gardens into Disneyesque wonderlands.
Using his own proprietary blend of organic biological nutrition, Bowman feeds plants at night — a technique he picked up during his time as a horticulturist at Disneyland.
“When you feed plants at night, they have enough time to absorb the nutrition, before it is degraded by the sun’s rays,” he said. “That’s why, when most people are winding down their days, eating dinner, and going to bed, we are out feeding plants and trees.”
He’s done more than just care for sick plants and trees, he’s revolutionized both residential and commercial properties by the use of his organic fertilizer tanks that inject his magical formula through your irrigation systems.
This program reduces the households use of water overall by 30%.
In a very short time, this program pays back through reduced water bills.
“When you give your
body proper nutrition, it affects your overall health and boosts your immunity, so you don’t get sick. The same is true for plants and trees.”
Bowman feeds complete “nutrition delivery biology” derived from earthworm
castings to replenish the missing healthy soil biology.
This works with a client’s current irrigation system so that each time the landscaping is watered, the needed soil biology is replenished.
“This is the secret to keeping your property looking like a five-star resort.”
Russell is quick to point out that healthy plants and trees are also environmentally friendly. A healthy plant will be more efficient at photosynthesizing sunlight into oxygen and the healthy soil/compost helps bring down uses far less water.
He donates his time and expertise for the trees for the Point Loma Association and gardens at the Rock Church in Point Loma, Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery, the YMCA, Barnes Tennis Center, Chili’s Restaurants, Stone Brewery in Escondido, and San Diego Botanic Garden.
He also served with the San Diego Rose Society in Balboa Park for 12 years.
“My calling is to beautify the earth, making trees and plants healthy,” The Master Gardener taught me everything I know. I’ve learned that when you love something, it’s not something you have to do; it’s something you want to do.”
To learn more about Bowman and his services, please contact Russell at 858-499-9417.
He provides tree and plant nutritional care as well as ongoing routine garden maintenance.
Russell Bowman abides by all applicable state laws and requirements and does not perform any services that require a licensed contractor. Business license B2017006153.
