Woman’s Club Home Tour

by Pat Landis

It rained all day! But mere rain did not deter a single person from going on the Julian Woman’s Club Christmas Home Tour. In fact, it lent atmosphere (literally) and no one complained. And if you did not go, you missed some real treats. Bobbi Zane’s home holds exotic art and crafts from indigenous Northwest inhabitants. The Woods’ home has incredible Asian sculptures and furniture. Ingrid Englund’s home abounds in homemade Swedish crafts and large Santas.

The Meier’s home exhibited precious antiques and fabulous gardens.

Then there was my home.

My friends helped me with my eclectic decorations, including window paintings and a horse head made from garland. People commented on my huge living room window with a great view and my large cherry wood entry

People come from all over Southern California to attend this tour and many of them are repeat customers. One woman commented, as we were driving around in the rain, that she could not wait until next year to do this again. It is fun, it is fascinating, it is stimulating and, best of all, income from this event goes to scholarships for select Julian High School graduates.

Spencer Valley School’s Season For Giving Back

All students participated in Spencer Valley School’s “Pillow Project” by creating individual fleecy pillows to give to Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego.

Each “animal” pillow was given a name, and students wrote their pillow’s story in a book with drawings that the children in the hospital could color.

Last week, the teachers and four students hand delivered the pillows to the hospital staff and got to be interviewed by the local media. Check out the hospital’s Facebook to see the video clip.

While Old School House students designed bee pillows, Ritchie Hall students (and some staff members) gave personalities to Nacho the Rat, Maple the Pig, Daisy the Duck, and several others! It was difficult for many to part with their new friends, but they know that the pillows will enjoy finding new homes.

Community Volunteering

Deputies are being recognized for solving a string of thefts and vandalism at Julian High School.

The Julian Union High School District presented Deputies and Detectives from the Julian Sheriff's Substation with a certificate of appreciation during a board meeting on December 11th.

Three people, including a juvenile, are now in custody in connection with the vandalism series that has been going on since September. They are facing felony charges of vandalism, commercial burglary and conspiracy.

Damage to the school is estimated at $40,000. Paint was sprayed all over the campus. In another incident, a fire extinguisher was used to damage buildings and contaminate classrooms.

Deputies began conducting extra patrols around the school.

On December 6th they caught a break, seeing the suspects

Donations Of Sock And Sundries Are Needed At Spencer Valley School Please help us to help those in need by donating socks (various sizes) and sundries (toothpaste, toothbrushes, soaps, creams, etc. – travel sized and hotel items are good) by December 17th at Spencer Valley School: 4414 Hwy 78 - 760-765-0336.

On Thursday night, after the school’s winter program, students, parents, and staff assemble the sundries into the socks and these will be given to the San Diego Rescue Mission.

Also, students will make & bake healthy dog biscuits that will be donated to PAWS San Diego, for homeless dogs.

This year our local Community United Methodist Church of Julian celebrated its 50th anniversary. Church members decided that the best way to celebrate this special occasion was to do something for our community. With Art Cole as liaison to the folks who are in charge of Jess Martin Park, a group of volunteers from CUMCJ donated over 50 plants and planted them on the Jess Martin Park hillside near the water tank. Pictured here are Fred Fabre, Art Cole, Jeff Holt, Terry Kelly, Shirley Jones, Tricia Elisara and Richard Burns.

Harvey Arntson also was working hard.

The suspects ran away, but deputies along with help from CHP Officer, Derek Stowers, who took the suspects into custody before they could do more damage to the school.

We would like to salute Deputy Craig Rembold, Detective Bradley Farr, Corporal Rex Anderson, Deputy Ken Edwards

and Deputy Steve McNamara for a job well done. Your hard work saved the school district and taxpayers money in cleaning and repairing more damage from the vandalism. You are shining examples of our agency's mission to keep the public safe.

In this case, a safe place for students at Julian High School.

Featuring the Finest Local Artists

Letter to the Editor, Concerning the excellent writing and well-thought out opinions from Bill Peterson who expressed his thoughts of my recent letter to the Julian News about the recent wave of immigrants primarily from Mexico and Honduras: I agree with Bill on most of his opinions, especially the need to put pressure on Mexico and Honduras governments who, as he says, treat the majority of the population as slaves and peasants by the extremely corrupt leaders. Also, Bill makes a very valid point about the rich and abundant natural resources that the government can put to good use improving the life of its people. The extraordinary beautiful countryside and coast in Mexico is another resource for tourism. Part of the rich resources, in my opinion, is the beautiful, hard-working, artistic and skilled trades and professional citizens.

The despotic countries are the people that the U.S.A. needs to put pressure on, not the immigrants who are trying to escape their ill-treatment and infringement on their basic rights as citizens. That can result in the brave and honest Latin American journalists to express their views in the media, supporting their fellow countrymen. For hundreds of years, the European immigrant

to Latin America treated the people badly . if they did not adopt the European religions and culture. A similar experience here in the U.S.A. was practiced on the FIRST PEOPLE, as well.

It is almost 2015. Isn’t it time that the majority of hard-working Latin Americans are respected and treated as equal and valued citizens and regain their status as important citizens who, every day, contribute to the well-being of their country? Isn’t it time that the, wealthy and greedy leaders recognize that the desperate people making the extremely dangerous trek North would be those citizens who are valuable to their mother country’s, economic and cultural life.if they stayed there and were able to be free from fear of violence and very low living wages. The greedy, violent and wealthy leaders could encourage them to stay if life was safer and wages were fair.The immigrants, for the most part, love their mother country and miss their families and communities. They come North with great risk to their lives Granted that this whole immigration issue is not easy to solve.

We are a generous and compassionate nation in many ways. We must use our political, social, moral will to solve this current and continuing issue, without making it a partisan Issue.

Medication Safety Tips For Cold & Flu Season (NAPSA)-Every year, more than 126,000 hospitalizations and 17,000 deaths in the U.S. are due to overdose or overuse of acetaminophen and NSAIDs, which are present in many prescription or over-the-counter pain medications.

Acetaminophen, which is an active ingredient in brands such as Tylenol(r) and NyQuil(r), is safe when taken as recommended, but can lead to liver damage when taken in excess. NSAIDs, which are a class of pain-relieving drugs that include brands such as Advil(r), Motrin(r) and aspirin, can cause stomach damage when overused.

During cold and flu season, misuse of OTC medicine can be common because people may be treating multiple symptomsespecially people taking medicines for chronic pain. It is important that you read medicine labels and only take one product at a time that contains the same active ingredient, even if

December 17, 2014

The Gift Of Mike Mike showed up out of nowhere, during the winter of 1983/84. A big, full-grown, German shepherd, he was a powerful animal, yet the word “pup” immediately slipped from my mouth when I first began talking to him. You know those joyous, fun-loving, tremendously healthy dogs who could and would sprint at full gallop across a long pasture, to join you in a walk through the woods, never tiring? It was impossible to ditch him, so he became my constant companion during those gray, wintry walks in the timbered foothills of the Cascades.

I'd injured my hip the summer before and the doctor suggested walking would help, even hiking up gentle hills. A break from heavy, physical labor was necessary, but to abstain from all exercise wouldn't be good either. The hip hurt, but as spring proceeded and then summer too, the pain mellowed into a dull ache which got worse if I sat or lay down for too long. And the dog was a bit bothersome because of the pain, but as he persisted in accompanying me, I stopped resisting and accepted him. I liked to go along quietly when I walked in the woods, looking at everything around me, peacefully sensing my way along. This happy pup, however, was boisterous and bounding all over the place, full of abandon and chasing any smell or rustle in the thick salal; or in the ubiquitous ferns; or perhaps in the groves of rhododendrons and varieties of berries growing so profusely under the timber’s canopy.

Injury? Yes, torn ligaments in the right hip. Fighting timber fires for years as a common groundpounder can do those kinds of things to a body, and worse.

Thankfully a more brutal sort of misery didn't happen to me, and, thankfully again, the Payson family and their neighbor Sharon took me under their wings at Lake McMurray. I’d money saved, but they hinted subtly here and there not to worry if it ran out. There was food, plenty of room, and if I could bend over without pain at summer’s arrival, picking flowers down in the Skagit Valley would provide an income. But for the moment, any kind of forward bending was out of the question; indeed some ligaments were damaged, yet the tissues lost some of their tenderness and pain when the muscles were put to a mediumsteep slope. Somehow that particular stepping-up motion set things straight in the area of my low back and presto!, . . no

pain.

Yet you can’t walk up hills forever, especially under the downpours Western Washington is famous for. All other positions and times found the dull ache/ stabbing sensation varying from a whisper to hurting. Painkillers?

It wasn’t so excruciating to require such things, and my decision was to let nature take her course as I nursed my hip with diet, sleep, zero stress, physical therapy and a few other things.

Upon Mike’s arrival from seemingly nowhere on one dry, overcast day, Richard, in other words Mr. Payson, simply began feeding the dog without complaint. Rich was an openminded, free-thinking man and if he could help someone or perhaps a creature or two, for awhile, he would. As the dog stuck around day after day, spending nights under the wide eaves of the main house, Rich began calling him Mike. And, as I said, whenever Mike saw me coming from my trailer at the far end of the pasture, opposite the house, he was up and running.

There was a funky, dirt road running along the north side of the pasture. The road was separated from the pasture by a long, thick row of blackberries, and on the other side of the road opposite the berries was a forested slope; about fifty acres of alder, cedar, hemlock and doug fir. Rich didn’t cut it, ever, and although it seemed second growth, it was a beautiful, wild forest, connecting to properties wild and wooded for many miles until the real mountains began.

Also, from Rich's living room you could look east and see Mt. Baker in the far distance. The large hole in the timber created by Lake McMurray opened up a view to the east that could be spectacular.

Mt. Baker is a wondrous shape of a mountain in the Cascades, covered perpetually in a thick, soft looking, rounded blessing of white from the snow-laden clouds above.

I couldn’t see Mt. Baker during my walks in the timber. The forest was thick, full of life, and the profuse green blocked any views or vistas, unless I was high on the ridge. And the heavy rains in these lowlands, once gaining the timber in their downward descent, would disperse into tiny, silver-grey rivulets flowing down every bough, every leaf, branch, rock - so profusely to be slightly deafening. The sound of that water falling out of the sky and gushing in rivulets and streams through the forest was something you had to get used to. It fed the ferns, the

rhody’s, the salal, huckleberries, thimbleberries, miner’s lettuce, horsetail, trillium, mushrooms, and moss... plus multitudes of other things too numerous to mention. The rains softened the ground into a cushion where walking was a silent padding and sticks underfoot crunched soggily instead of snapping sharply. And never a rustling leaf in this forest. The thick leaf layer stuck to the ground like wet paper maché, often over damp spongelike duff and then the dirt below, all of which wouldn't dry out until August.

When the rains abated into solid, high overcast, and a semidry gray persisted for some hours or a day, I went farther.

I’d found several routes up the slope and these were easy when not dressed in rain gear. It was a botanist’s dreamland, I collecting things to eat, plus guzzling waters of delicious taste. The way the ridgeline sloped up above, going on into other properties, made for three, small, constant streams from which to drink. And I took these walks alone until Mike showed up.

Times other than these were spent in wonderment about what I was going to do. Never before had I sustained such an injury, preventing physical labor, and in this situation I naturally felt insecure. In addition, I didn’t like the idea of working at something I didn’t want to do, yet this might be unavoidable because of my hip. What if it never healed? I had a car and was searching for various options, yet nothing much existed. It was a small town environment, I was new in the area and, as everyone knows, in this kind of place all the jobs are sewn up tight; tight as the skin on a drum.

than I and seemed a similar soul, we getting along well. My nervousness about money began diminishing somewhat, helped by the fact that he knew several artists in the area. A beautiful piece of silverwork hanging in Terry’s shop beckoned me to enter that first day, and to look around. His was exquisite silver born of the natural world, Terry having connections to that realm more strongly than I. Weather in the mountains of the Northwest can be a tremendous experience when you’re exposed to all of its moods. Yet contrasting the tremendous things are delicate and subtle things too. The mists and fogs, quietly considered from behind rain-washed panes, during long moments, have a movement all their own as they drift and twist through the timber; at times as if they were searching for something, looking for a place to alight and, finding it, dissolving into it. Although the watery drama is in constant flux, changing from moment to moment, there is a subtle stillness in it all, behind it all. Cool and wet, gray and green outside, with you the spectator all warm and secure inside, you learn things by way of this paradox; so much movement yet so still.

People busily huffing and driving away through the rain, to the tune of a working world, understand and perceive the world through the speed at which they travel. The placid stillness of being firmly rooted does not come to them. But myself, injured, had long moments of quiet. And in this I learned things, and in this came an experience which wedded me to something subtle, something delicate.

I’d been laying on my bed in

Richard’s local friends were few, mostly older loggers, and there was no way I could do that work with my hip in such a condition. So I slumped into various routines, and occasionally helped Rich with the fences as the cows broke through them pretty regularly.

This work was easy as long as I didn’t have to bend too far forward, lift too much, or pull wire too forcefully.

But one thing I did do: I kept doing what Tom, a fellow firefighter at the La Grande Fire Center, had painstakingly taught me for two long fire seasons: carving antler and ivory and intricate shell inlay. Sheila and Rich knew about the skill I'd acquired, and they provided me a small, closet-like room for a workshop. Lo and behold, after making a pair of abalone-shell earrings, Sheila saw them on the table, made a few exclamations about them, and bought them as a gift for a friend. Then some weeks after this, on a sojourn to a protected bay some thirty country-minutes from Lake McMurray, I met a Salish Indian woodcarver, and he began employing me. I took on the job of finishing his sculptures by hand sanding them with fine grades of sandpaper, then buffing them until they were almost luminous.

Terry, the carver, was a bit older

the trailer for about two hours, listening to the rain pelt the roof in sheets. My hip hurt, but there was nowhere to go and time was vanished. I had skipped my way through some books, was between readings, and not the slightest trace of thought was in my mind. It was then that I fell asleep and had a dream of rain.

Rain was falling everywhere, I not watching it from the outside, as an observer, but myself actually a raindrop, falling through the sky on my way to the ground.

My brother and sister drops were all around me, falling too: a swift falling taking only moments, then we all hit the ground, not dying, but merging into a sheen of oneness, all unifying into the same One Water everywhere, soaking into the ground in a horizon-like, undulating layer on the surface.

The sheen of our oneness danced on the ground as falling drops continuously added their lives into white splendor; white like the waves at the beach after they break. In one moment I was a drop of individualized water, but the next moment I was the whole of the water everywhere at once, covering the ground. Then I woke up from the dream, the confines of the trailer around me.

I remained very still, looking at the ceiling, a wonderful tranquility in my heart as I lay there. Subtle joy broke on the shore of my slowly

MONEY ORDERS – ATM – COPY AND FAX SERVICE awakening mind and then this joy began fading, the fading taking more than an hour. If I moved, the feeling of this delicate happiness dissipated more quickly, so I simply stayed where I was. I didn’t have to be anywhere and, for all I was concerned, I could go right back to sleep if I wanted to.

It was a powerful experience and, as the days continued afterwards, it seemed a consequence of this dream was a loss of nervousness on my part about the future, which had seemed bleak, and I stopped worrying about what I was going to do with my life. I rooted myself in the quiet of nature at the farm and kept up my simple routines.

And then it was a little while afterwards that Mike, the friendly pup, showed up.

I yelled at the top of my lungs, “Mike!! ... c’mon pup!!”

Hiking a gentle grade which became steeper as we went, the property boundary finally came and, once beyond it, a clear-cut, over-gown with brush confronted us. It was a usual stopping point for me, the brush very thick, but Mike launched forward at full bound and disappeared. I called for five minutes and gave up.

I turned back, sidesloping for several-hundred feet until the contour reached the ridgeline.

Then I turned downhill and, out of the blue, the dog appeared uphill from me, streaking down the ridge. It was unbelievable the agility and strength he possessed, not even needing boots!

The ridge curved east and melded into the slope above my trailer. I departed the ridge, descended, and went inside, Mike disappearing across the pasture. I had to go to Terry’s a little while later, to work some ivory and, amazingly, the sun broke through for the remainder of the afternoon. Then, upon returning from work, something happened.

The two-lane highway from Terry’s to Lake McMurray was a beautiful one. Big alders lined the road amid park-like timber, reaching for the sunny skies above, and the alder leaves dazzled a golden green in the sunlight. The road was clean, perfect black, with the white and double-yellow lines sparkling from weeks of rain. Things held a soft warmth due to the hours of sunshine and I came to the straight-away at the seven-mile mark. I wasn’t thinking about anything in particular, eyes trained on the road ahead. Then a movement appeared atop the left cutbank, about two-hundred feet ahead, and it wasn’t Mike lost in one of his powerful sprints.

It was a huge, biege color ... leaping. And when it achieved the road, my mind registered the form . . cougar!

Yet it became aware of the car bearing toward it, stopped its pace across the road, looked at me for only a moment, turned 180 degrees and leapt back up, clearing ten feet of upward air to scramble up the cut bank and disappear . . straight into the hills I loved to walk in. And I slowed down, looking up the hill where the cougar had come from, then continued, more slowly, onward.

First thoughts: “Don’t say anything, or you’ll give one of the men a reason to find it and

kill it.” The excitement of seeing a wonderfully elusive animal glowed inside and I thought to tell Rich I’d seen a cougar.

But I thought again, “If you say something, Rich might tell Andy ...and Andy might mention it to the men at the gas station, and you know what’ll happen next.”

I resolved that it would be my secret, and my secret alone.

Next thoughts? They came from a very quiet place in the form of a question. Yet it was a wordless one, more like a silent understanding: “Why did Mike come into your life, Greg? He just showed up out of nowhere, and wouldn’t let you walk and hike alone, would he?”

A quiet notion it was, with much implication, igniting a fire of contemplation, the rest of the drive taken up in quiet concentration about Mike’s presence in my life, I not until now realizing something. I thought of when he had come, how he had come, his temperament, his size and strength, and the like. Most of all, how this enormous German Shepherd wouldn't leave me alone when I was outside, alone.

No matter what I did, early on, to shoo him away, he wouldn't have it. I thought about my hip too, and how predators are sensitive to injury. Injured prey are a much easier meal!

I arrived at the trailer, laid down on the bed, and my contemplation rearranged itself into memories of the water dream and the delicate happiness that came in its wake. No matter the endless gray and rain that was deluging the earth that winter, I was happier and less anxious about my present situation. I thought of how Rich and Sheila and Sharon had offered their help at such a critical time.

And now considering the story of Mike as it shifts into deeper waters, I think the reader’s mind at this point might be quiet also.

And I find there’s nothing more, really, to say. The story suddenly speaks for itself by virtue of its final descriptions, which, like Mike showing up out of the blue one day, suddenly complete this short but interesting story without warning. It is a true story, and all I can say is thank you, to Life, and to Mike, wherever he is. He stayed for about six months and then moved on during summer’s warmth, disappearing in the same way as he appeared: out of that mysterious nowhere and then back into it. Neither Rich, nor Andy, nor Sheila or any of the others had warned me about the cougars in the area. They assumed I was aware of the fact, and I wasn’t.

Many of the Indian nations in Northwestern Washington refer to the area as God’s country.

And on this point I have to say that my experience verified this.

To me, however, the term needs a little more, so I like to refer to God also as The Mystery, because the nature and quality of my experiences during that time challenged my intellect, demanding a different way of looking at events in order to explain them. I know that more than one explanation is possible, and to the mystical explanations I am wedded, I finding in them more solace than the ideas of those who choose to interpret such experiences differently.

My Thoughts

Red Cross Fudge, Maybe

The Julian News 5

TREE N C A O I M L U J E HT Local Experience Since 1988PANY

The recipe I’ve reproduced here may or may not be the original Red Cross fudge recipe. I’ve looked through lots of my personal recipes in recipe books and in recipe files and I couldn’t find the recipe that A Division of my grandmother cut out of the newspaper in the 1940s and then gave • Complete Family Practice Services to me in the 1970s. Not finding the original recipe, like any modern Harold K. Merrick MD • Monthly Cardiology and OB/GYN woman, I searched the internet. I found lots of recipes that were called Blake A. Wylie, DO Now accepting: HealthNet HMO Red Cross Fudge, Grammy’s Red Cross Fudge, Original Red Cross • Digital X-ray Lab Services with Covered California, Medi-Cal, Medicare, Community Health Fudge or something like these titles. I went to the official American • Daily Borrego Pharmacy Delivery Group, Molina, Sharp Commercial, Red Cross website, but they didn’t list any recipes. I think they should.

CHDP. Most PPO’s and Tricare, • Behavioral Health (Smart Care) Sliding Fee Scale and Listing their fudge recipe could direct traffic to the website where Financial Assistance Available. people could find out all sorts of good things about The American Red Cross.

While looking at recipe after recipe, I was amazed at how many recipes get published that are incomplete. Some don’t tell what pan size to use, while others don’t tell a potential baker to grease AND Cardiology , Joseph Schwartz, Md flour a pan before pouring ingredients into it. After fudge is cooked, Women’s Health, Unneetha Pruitt, Cnp, Obgyn it needs to be poured into a buttered pan. Buttered does not mean Please Call For Appointment 760-765-1223 coated with margarine. Most recipes don’t mention coating the pan License #945348 with anything at all.

Wanting to make fudge, I first used a recipe that didn’t say to lower the temperature before continuing to boil the heated mixture. Because the recipe didn’t tell me to lower the heat once the mixture was at a rolling boil, I boiled this mixture for eleven minutes on a high heat. I PO Box 254 watched and stirred, stirred and watched for the full eleven minutes.

JULIAN, CA. Not only did I end up with a 5 pound rock, boiling my ingredients for WE-8690A 92036 eleven minutes on the highest heat cost me a lot of money. Making fudge isn’t cheap. Fortunately I was able to break off some small bits that made decent sprinkles for ice cream.

In my next attempt at using a recipe from the internet, I use evaporated milk. I remembered that the original recipe called for it because during World War ll, fresh milk wasn’t always available and many homes didn’t have refrigerators to keep fresh milk from spoiling.

If you would like to use fresh heavy cream instead of canned milk, that could work and it will give the fudge a different flavor.

In this recipe, a 12.oz. can of evaporated milk is used. Originally canned milk came in a 13 oz. can. Changing from canned evaporated Tuesday & Thursday By Appointment milk to fresh cream requires a slight adjustment because a 12 oz. can of evaporated milk is a bit over 1 ½ cups but not quite 1 2/3 cups of liquid. If you change the recipe by using fresh cream, you will have to guess how much to use. do, you may have an expensive disaster in your kitchen.

Additionally, my recipe calls for real vanilla extract which is difficult Red Cross Fudge to fi nd, even at the big supermarkets.

(Supermarket is an old word Ingredients: StevenBurgard306@gmail.com that means grocery store.) If you haven’t made fudge recently, you 4-1/2 cups sugar Certificate# 55390 Member ID# 1067091 won’t notice that imitation vanilla extract will give your fudge a different 1/2 lb. butter flavor, so it could be okay. You won’t have a reason to say “My fudge 12 oz. evaporated milk doesn’t taste like this!”

1 Tbsp. vanilla extract In my second attempt at making fudge this past month, I got 2 cups miniature marshmallows Cadillac Wreckers will be at Bailey's BBQ Saturday December 20 playing Traditional American music - uptempo Jumps, Swings and my mixture to a rolling boil, and then I turned the heat down to a 12 oz. real chocolate chips ( 2 cups) Stomps from the 1940s to the 1960s. Their musical approach is medium temperature. English recipes call for us to lower the heat to 2 cups chopped walnuts steeped in the traditional roots of vintage Jazz, Swing and Rhythm- a moderate temperature. I like the word Moderate.

Of all the traditional baked confections we associate with the holidays, probably none is more popular than the cookie. During the holiday season, old recipes are pulled out -- or special orders are placed -- for a staggering and beautiful array of cookies in all sizes, shapes, colors and flavors. America is a melting pot, and there is no time when this is more evident than the holidays. Cookies from around the world make appearances at family celebrations or as gifts for friends

and neighbors.

If you follow the cookie trail in the United States, it will take you back to Colonial times, when the first record of a recipe for a “Christmas Cookey” can be found. The ingredients listed in the American Cookery recipe of 1797 note flour, sugar, butter, milk, powdered coriander and “pearlash,” a leavening agent made by soaking fireplace ashes in water to produce lye. It was a jumping off point to what has become a long-held and much-loved tradition.

Cookies were brought to our country by the Europeans who settled here. Christmas cookie trees were a German invention.

Highly decorative shortbread or sugar cookies were a gift from the Dutch. As America grew, so did her immigrant population. Today, the cookies we bake during the holidays reflect not only our own family traditions, but those of a

vast culinary history from all over the globe.

Looking even further back to the origins of the cookie, we can start with a basic recipe for a sugar cookie or tea cake. Many other cookies recipes from around the world have evolved from these simple ingredients.

It is believed that hundreds of years ago, sugar cookies originated with the process of testing a cake recipe. Small spoonfuls of batter were baked to check for flavor and consistency. Shortbread cookies began life in ancient times as slightly sweetened biscuits. From there -- with the additions of butter, fruits and chocolate, sprinkles and colored sugar -- things went wild.

Modern cookies are an unlimited variety of textures and flavors from bacon to candy corn.

Honoring A Julian Legend

by Lauren Vandewalle

Coach Bill Porter is a legend; ask any Julian High School student or alumni and they will tell you that he is. Or, go to Balboa Park and see for yourself. Coach Porter just received the honor of Hall of Champions Coaching Legend for CIF San Diego Section 2014.

He was presented with this title at a ceremony at the Scottish Rite Temple here in San Diego and Julian High School celebrated him at our weekly school-wide flag salute on Tuesday, December 9th.

Julian as a community has much to thank this legend for. He coached the high school’s Cross Country and Track and Field teams for twenty two years, contributed greatly to getting us a track, and even helped hire the coach that would take his place when he retired.

Although he’s no longer head coach, he still volunteers by helping out with both teams every year.

This honor as one of this year’s six Hall of Champions Coaching Legends, which is only given to retired coaches, is not the only recognition Coach Porter has received. In 2008, he was given the Model Thirteen Statewide Coaching Award. Of the 69,000 coaches in California, Coach Porter was named one of the top thirteen. Julian should be very proud to have such a hard-working, accomplished legend in its midst who shapes the lives of Julian High School’s runners every year.

Just Kicking It

by Kricia Garcia

I’ve played soccer since my sophomore year. Soccer is a great experience, you get to meet new people, share fun times together, get your mind off everything, learn new skills, and the best part of this sport and any other sport is that all of the memories I’ve made will stay with me forever. I remember my first practice; I was terrified, I didn’t know what to expect. I knew that soccer involves a lot of running and I also heard about “hell week”, I didn’t believe it was going to be that bad. But yes, it was bad, exhausting, but at the end of the week it was worth it. I also remember my first high school game, I was nervous to play against other girls that were far more talented and bigger than I am. Soccer is a beautiful sport; once you play it one time, you want to keep playing it for the rest of your life. We live in a small town, we know that we are not the best team out there, but we know that we are like family, we support each and every person, and we help each other get up and give it 110% no matter what the score is. We hold our heads up knowing that all of us gave it our all at every single game. Playing soccer has been a great experience that is going to stay with me forever, as well as all of my team mates.

Hooping for a Championship

by Darren Duffy

As winter rolls into Julian, Eagles athletics moves into the gym, and basketball season is underway. The Men's team, coached by Ryan Cross, began their 17-game journey with a huge win against crossmountain rival Mountain Empire. The team is led by three experienced seniors Emerson Kron, Darren Duffy, and Chance Perez. A string of talented freshman and other young players also take the court for the Eagles.

The Eagles, while fairly young, have more experience than in recent years. In fact, only one player from last year graduated. The team varies from tall power forwards and centers to fast and shifty guards, creating an extremely versatile basketball powerhouse.

Senior Emerson Kron presents his outlook on the start of the season when he states, "we are playing well and getting even better." Players are eager to improve their basketball skills and win some games for Julian.

Most games will take place after the holidays, giving the team a solid couple of weeks to prepare. As they fight for a playoff spot, some tough league opponents are going to put up a good fight. These teams are the Warner Springs Wildcats, the Borrego Springs Rams, the Vincent Memorial Scots, among other competitors. The season won't be easy, but your Julian Eagle Men's basketball team is ready to make the school and community proud.

Christmas Time

by Juliann Rangel, a Junior

Christmas is a time where you decorate your home in beautiful Christmas colors, putting up white lights, playing Christmas music and drinking hot chocolate by the warm fire. Baking, of course, cute gingerbread men and inviting your family members from all over, even that crazy aunt in the family. Also Christmas wouldn't be complete without putting up the tree and decorating it all nice and hoping the cat will not knock it down this year. Christmas has so much joy in it but what would make it more joyful is helping out someone or a family this Christmas who has less. Giving food, toys, Christmas cards and even a smile and wishing them "Happy Holidays" could make them have a better holiday. It is always good to give back and feel good about something you did for someone else who needed help.

World Record Camp

by Kylene Shuler

Over the summer, my teammate Livia and I had the chance to attend the World Record Camp at Mt. SAC. We spent three days with Willie Banks, a previous triple jump world record holder, and Mike Powell, who currently holds the world record in long jump. Not only was it an honor to meet such incredible athletes, but to be coached by them was an amazing opportunity as well.

The days began with a variety of amusing and lively warm-ups followed by lessons from one of the coaches of a field event. Livia trained with Willie Banks on her triple jump skills while I received long jumping advice from Mike Powell. There were only four other long jumpers so I was able to have one-on-one coaching from the accomplished Olympian. At first, I was nervous to be jumping in front of such a prestigious athlete, but I soon realized that there was no need to be worried. He was hilarious and joked around the entire time, making it feel like there was less pressure to do well. Amidst all of the laughter and fun, I gained so much more knowledge about long jumping. We practiced everything that constitutes a single jump: the approach, takeoff, flight, and landing, perfecting our techniques of each along the way.

In addition to all of the new instructions, the experience was also enjoyable being able to spend it with Coach Fleet and his family.

Without the generosity of the Fleets and Coach Bill Porter, Livia and I might have never had the chance to go to this camp. Within only three days, we learned many skills that will be beneficial throughout the rest of our future jumping competitions. It was the perfect conclusion to a great track season.

Yoga Club

from Livia Limon

Yoga is defined as a Hindu spiritual and ascetic discipline, a part of which, includes breath control and simple meditation.

The adoption of specific bodily postures is widely practiced for health and relaxation. At Julian High School, a Yoga Club was recently created by a junior, Livia Limon. The objective is for the students to relieve stress and become aware of the body as well as the mind. Kathleen Beck, as the instructor, has volunteered to help teach these adolescents.

Overall, those who have joined have gained a sense of well being. The yoga club gathers every Tuesday and Thursday at lunch and there are currently 5-7 members. They hope to attain more participants so others can experience this wonderful art.

Namaste.

Pericles At The Old Globe

by Dylan McConnell, senior

The Old Globe Theater was an great place to go to watch plays.

It had a nice little stage that was really up close to the audience so that we could see everything and kind of interacted with the actors. We went to the Old Globe Theater to watch the play, "Pericles". It was a great play, the first half of the play though was created by an unnamed person.

The second half was created

by Shakespeare. The first half definitely was not as good as the second half. Either way it was a great play and I would love to go back there to watch it again.

Things Happen

by Alejandra Abarca

Things happen for a reason or other things aren’t always meant to work out. So when the unexpected happens be prepared. Don’t be sad because something doesn’t happen. Be happy because it showed you to value what you had in the first place; appreciate the memory you're left with. This year at Julian Union High School our wrestling team got taken out of our Winter sports program for a lack of a coach and lack of participants. I think this is a real shame. From my experience wrestling doesn’t only teach you endurance but it teaches you to be strong and it encourages you to never give up on yourself.

You get to test someone else's strength and physical ability. The best part is that wrestling doesn’t discriminate no matter what size, height, and weight, and most importantly, gender you are. This sport makes you feel like it was meant for you. Plus there’s no replacing the great coach we have had for the last three years that put everything he had into the program and I can’t thank him enough. Things happen when you least expect them, so appreciate everything in life before you lose the opportunity to do them again and the only thing you are left with is memories. Never underestimate “The man in the arena”.

California Love

by Francois Piquard

Hi my name is Francois Piquard and I’m a Belgian exchange student in San Diego.

I've been in America since July 31, and I only stayed here for four and a half months so, as my trip ends, I want to tell you my overall impression of Julian. First I would like to say that I was in the best host-family (and by the way thanks to the KUIPERS). And thanks to all the students and staff of JHS. Before my first day being in a little school scared me a little because I thought the integration would have been really hard. But everything was amazing and I even became the Homecoming king. The school was smaller and really different in a lot of aspects. First, the class choices are really nice. Art, drama, shop or even FFA are not the kind of classes that we can choose in Belgium. Second, the classes are way longer than in Belgium, where they're only fifty minutes each. But our school day is from 8:20 to 16:30 so it's more than one hour longer. And third, the biggest difference, is the sports.

Americans have the chance to play a lot of sports after school such as football, soccer and that is an amazing opportunity that people have here. If you have the opportunity to do the same trip, just do it, there is nothing as nice as seeing the world through your own eyes. You could learn things that you'd never even imagined.

My best experience was surfing, which my host family taught me to do. That was really amazing, because in my country there are no waves. I will finish by saying I will never be thankful enough to all the people that I met and who made my integration so easy and fun. Julian you can be proud of your town.

Drama Wishlist

by Vladymir Wong

The lights dim, the curtain rises and you sit, waiting to see what theatrical phenomenon you will experience...oh but wait, we don't have a curtain. After a good long while our beautiful theater in the high school is finally open.

But unfortunately there are some repairs to be done and much needed paraphernalia still to be had. It seemed as though the glorious curtain that is vital for any play cannot be found. Of course a velvet curtain that is large enough for the stage is very expensive. The curtain, though, is a classic and iconic part of the theater that I believe should be hanging on any stage. A handful of brilliant and dedicated students are putting their all into the very first play in our brand new theater. It is entitled, “Charley's Aunt”. The production will be absolutely amazing! You can show your support for the kids in drama by coming to see the play, have some laughs and cheer them on. It is scheduled to premiere in late February. Please consider donating towards the purchase of the theater’s curtain.

This would certainly add to the enthusiasm and success of your high school’s drama class.

Entitlement, A Genetic Disorder

by Kellen Regalado

Generations Y and Z (those born between the 1980s and today) have set a precedent for ungratefulness and entitlement, that must be overhauled, or we will quickly find ourselves in an unpleasant world. With credit due to those who have overcome the majority, it is easy to see that many of today’s youth seem to wake up wondering what handout will grace them next. Kids and teens today want something for nothing. The U.S Department of Labor reports that just 29.9% of teens, aged 16-19, are employed in any capacity, as of August 2014. It should also be noted that Pew found 78% of teens, aged 12-17, own a cell phone. It doesn’t take much to do the math on these numbers and realize that many teens are nearly dependent on a technology never “needed” before, and are doing nothing more to earn these extra perks. Now, youth sports are dominated more by protecting children’s ego and “self-esteem” than awarding those who have worked the hardest. Instead of a trophy for the MVP, trophies are handed to all that participated.

This wouldn’t be a problem if kids could be protected from disappointment for their whole lives, but the truth is that one day they might be rejected from their dream college, bomb the interview for their dream job, or worse yet be shot down by their dream spouse. Without the prior understanding that we all come up short sometimes, these relatively small setbacks become insurmountable hurdles.

There is a lack of appreciation for the gifts that are given, and an undervaluing of doing things the right way. It’s easy enough to see ungratefulness in our own town when our beautiful new school is vandalized by the selfish. The culture of today must adapt to these problems and begin to break down the ungratefulness in exchange for gratitude. The best place to start is with please and thank you, words that are too often lost in the busyness of everyday conversation, can make a big difference in how we as generations are received.

If the youth of today cannot change this negative perception it will quickly become a reality for generations to follow.

Hobnail Basket Q: I am quite stressed. I gave a Fenton hobnail basket in amber to a friend and have since been told by a neighbor that it is quite rare and valuable. It was about 12 inches in size and had a rufed edge.

-- Susan, Elizabeth, New Jersey A: Chill out. I found your piece in "Kovels' Antiques & Collectibles Price List" by Terry and the late Ralph Kovel. According to the Kovels, your Fenton basket is worth about $4. Yes, that is not a misprint: $4. *** Q: At a recent yard sale, I purchased several older perfume bottles. I don't collect perfume bottles, but was attracted their unique designs. Since at least three are Art Deco, I believe my bottles probably are from the 1930s and '40s. How can I ďŹ nd out more about them?

-- EmmaLou, Flagstaff, Arizona A: One of the better organizations that you might find helpful is The International Perfume Bottle Association, www. perfumebottles.org. I also like "The Wonderful World of Collecting Perfume Bottles: Identification & Value Guide" by Jane Flanagan (Collector Books). Even though this reference was first published in 2006, it remains my go-to book for answers in this field of collecting.

Collector Books' contact is P.O. Box 3009, Paducah, KY 42002. *** Q: I purchased a drinking cup showing the Cascade Fountains, an attraction of the St. Louis World's Fair of 1904. It is black and white with gold trim. I paid $75 for it.

-- Steve, Cheyenne, Wyoming A: You paid just about what it is worth. I found your cup referenced in "1904 St. Louis World's Fair: Mementos and Memorabilia" by the late Robert L. Hendershott, who listed the tumbler's value in the $50 to $100 range. *** Q: I have three baseballs, all signed by major-league players from the 1940s and '50s. I would like to have them appraised.

My Thoughts

continued from page 5 stir until all of the ingredients are well blended.

4.Pour into a buttered 9” x 13” pan and let cool.

5.Cut into squares when it cuts without melting back together but before it becomes crumbly.

Makes 5 pounds. Store in an air-tight container.

Notice the recipe calls for 2 cups of miniature marshmallows. This is important. I used 2 cups of slightly heated because they were in the car too long and melded together marshmallows. This was not a good idea. When the recipe says miniature marshmallows, it means you need to add lots of separate small marshmallows because one of the last steps in the recipe is to stir in the chocolate chips and the marshmallows. If the marshmallows are in a big blob, you may feel like you are spending an eternity blending them with the other ingredients.

You may find yourself trying to blend marshmallows that are cooling too much to continue melting and blending. If the marshmallows are small and separate from each other, they will blend quickly with the other ingredients.

Once I followed the first, really bad recipe, I looked at many more

recipes. I looked for common ingredients, and then I looked for important steps in the making of the fudge. Some recipes omitted the vanilla and others gave completely different amounts of some ingredients. I cook enough to have developed a few cooking instincts, though in the case of over boiling, I was surprised at how far off I was in thinking I had found a decent recipe.

Though I only found one recipe that called for buttering the pan, I remembered this as being important. Even so, I called my cousin Sue to verify the importance of buttering the pan. When Sue was a young girl, during World War ll, her mother volunteered to make gallons of fudge. Not all at once. Sue remembered the importance of some of the steps which helped me a lot.

Finally I made 5 pounds of very creamy tasty fudge and I’m very satisfied with the results. Success!

These are my thoughts.

EAST OF PINE HILLS

by Kiki Skagen Munshi

Once upon a time not so long ago wandering minstrels roamed the dry hills and deserts of Rajasthan in Northwestern India. When they arrived at a village they would unroll a great canvas of pictures in red and green, black and gold, and sing to announce the evening’s entertainment. After the chores were done and darkness was lit only by fire the bards entertained the village, singing of Great Deeds, of the God-King Pabuji and of his brave horse. (Let’s hear it for the horse!)

And there was the occasional naughty more up-to-date song as the evening wore on and someone passed around a flask of home brew.

Then electricity and satellite television arrived. “Sex and the City” supplanted Pabuji. The few bards left sang at hotels and for tourists.

Their kids wanted to go to college and work in call-centers. They never learned how to play the rawan-hatta much less how to make it from a coconut shell and whatever was at hand.

Ram Lall and Patasi were two of the best and listening to them around the fire on a horse safari was magical. It would be a shame if this were to be lost completely so we thought so…a CD was made.

The couple had been to Jaipur once in their lives; otherwise the small town of Nawalgarh (never heard of it? Most people haven’t) and dusty villages were all the world they knew. So when Durga Singhji, their employer, brought them to Delhi it was An Experience.

They stayed in my house (it was large) and Patasi, who kept purdah, surreptitiously raised her veil as we drove though New Delhi streets so she could see better. And they were professionals--the recording studio didn’t faze them; they recorded an entire CD in one flawless take.

Then they heard their own voices for the first time. That was overwhelming.

We made, how many? Maybe 3,000 CDs. Economies of scale.

Most have been sold in India, the money destined for a plot of land and modest house, a retirement fund. At least that was the idea. The first payment Ram Lall and Patasi received resulted in a three day bender and massive hangovers so money has been kept in a fund.

Demand in the US hasn’t been quite as high and there are still 200 or so CDs in the basement? What to do? Hm-m-m-m…it’s Christmas. Yes! Wrap, wrap, wrap. Dozens! Wrap, wrap, wrap. For all the friends and some of the enemies! A great idea!

So if you receive a CD of Ram Lall and Patasi this Christmas, remember it isn’t really a gift. It’s inventory reduction. Merry Christmas. *** “It's easier to take than to give.

*** “The only gift I have to give, is the ability to receive. If giving is a gift, and it surely is, then my gift to you is to allow you to give to me.”

— Jarod Kintz

A Soldier’s Christmas It’s nearly Christmas. It seems as if our men in arms and now our women are always away at this time of year suffering the cold and loneliness of deployment in some foreign land. Since our early days in America when our men wintered in Gettysburg in one of the coldest winters of the time, the cold and suffering never stops.

During the Battle of the Bulge in December, 1944 it was one of the coldest winters in the Ardennes Forest in fifty years.

Six hundred ten thousand Americans engaged in the battle.

There were 89,000 casualties, 19,000 killed, 47,000 wounded and 23,000 captured or missing.

I’ve spoken to men who were there and they all remember the cold.

At the battle of Chosin Reservoir during the Korean War in November, 1950 a cold front from Siberia dropped temperatures to minus 35 degrees. Frostbite was rampant, medicines and plasma were frozen and useless. Batteries, engines, radios and weapons all malfunctioned or failed due to the cold. While not prevailing in the classic sense, our Marines and Army were able to escape and caused massive casualties on the Chinese. It was close to Christmas, our men were fighting for their lives and it was cold.

The poem below was passed on to me. It’s about “our” soldier’s dedication and why they do what they do. It’s kind of like the poem The Night Before Christmas but with a touching message about our military men and women’s dedication. Michael Marks wrote it and it is called…

A Soldier’s Christmas The embers glowed softly, and in their dim light, I gazed round the room and I cherished the sight. My wife was asleep, her head on my chest, my daughter beside me, angelic in rest.

Outside the snow fell, a blanket of white, Transforming the yard to a winter delight; The sparkling lights in the tree, I believe, Completed the magic that was Christmas Eve. My eyelids were heavy, my breathing was deep, Secure and surrounded by love I would sleep in perfect contentment, or so it would seem. So I slumbered, perhaps I started to dream.

The sound wasn’t loud, and it wasn’t too near, but I opened my eye when it tickled my ear.

Perhaps just a cough, I didn’t quite know, then the sure sound of footsteps outside in the snow.

My soul gave a tremble, I struggled to hear, and I crept to the door just to see who was near. Standing out in the cold and the dark of the night, a lone figure stood; his face weary and tight.

A soldier, I puzzled, some twenty years old Perhaps a Marine, huddled here in the cold.

Alone in the dark, he looked up and smiled, Standing watch over me, and my wife and my child.

“What are you doing?” I asked without fear come in this moment, it’s freezing out here!

Put down your pack, brush the snow from your sleeve, you should be at home on a cold Christmas Eve!” For barely a moment I saw his eyes shift, Away from the cold and the snow blown in drifts, to the window that danced with a warm fire’s light then he sighed and he said, “It’s really all right, I’m out here by choice. I’m here every night” “It’s my duty to stand at the front of the line that separates you from the darkest of times. No one had to ask or beg or implore me, I’m proud to stand here like

my fathers before me.

My Gramps died at ‘Pearl on a day in December,” Then he sighed, “That’s a Christmas ‘Gram always remembers.”

My dad stood his watch in the jungles of ‘Nam And now it is my turn and so, here I am.

I’ve not seen my own son in more than a while, but my wife sends me pictures, he’s sure got her smile. Then he bent and he carefully pulled from his bag, the red white and blue… an American flag.

“I can live through the cold and the being alone, Away from my family, my house and my home, I can stand at my post through the rain and the sleet, I can sleep in a foxhole with little to eat, I can carry the weight of killing another Or lay down my life with my sisters and brothers Who stand at the front against any and all, To insure for all time that this flag will not fall.”

“So go back inside,” he said, “harbor no fright Your family is waiting and I’ll be all right.” but isn’t there something I can do, at the least, “Give you money,” I asked, “or prepare you a feast? It seems all too little for all that you’ve done, for being away from your wife and your son.”

Then his eye welled a tear that held no regret, just tell us you love us, and never forget To fight for our rights back at home while we’re gone; To stand your own watch, no matter how long.

For when we come home, either standing or dead, to know you remember we fought and we bled is payment enough, and with that we will trust. That we mattered to you as you mattered to us.”

Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

In December of 1776 as the Colonial Army was freezing and dying at Valley Forge the opening paragraph of “The Crisis” written by Thomas Paine is as pertinent today as it was 238 years ago.

THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.

What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated.

La Jolla Playhouse Visit continued from page 1

the Julian High School drama class was fortunate to have the opportunity to see the stage production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame at the Mandell Weiss Theatre.

The production is closely based on the Victor Hugo novel and uses music from the Disney film. The play mimics the pageant wagon productions of the Middle Ages. The cast was comprised of high caliber, professional actors with extensive biographies.

Personally, my favorite moment was the onstage transformation of the man/actor (played by Michael Arden) into Quasimodo after asking the question “What makes a man?”. The entire production gave us goosebumps (even in the classroom when we recalled our favorite moments) and explored the question, “What makes a monster, what makes a man?”

Witnessing the student’s reactions to the production was truly inspiring. Emotions ranged the gamut from awe, real tears and complete excitement. After the production student had the opportunity to take photos with and chat with a few cast members. Experiencing this real world connection was truly life altering for some students. Our in class discussion following the experience revealed that the music, plot and characters formed a deep memory within the students. My hope is to continue to connect students to real world knowledge and opportunities.

Ask Pastor Rick

Religion In The News Oprah’s Network Releases The ‘Rob Bell Show’ Riding on the success of a pile of bestselling books and a hit video series, Pastor Rob Bell became one of the most sought after religious speakers in America during the early 2000’s. But after Bell questioned whether hell was real in his New York Times bestselling book Love Wins, many conservative Christians tried to oust him from the inner circle of evangelicalism.

How did Bell respond? By quietly bidding his haters adieu, leaving his church, and attaining even more success.

In 2011, Bell was named one of TIME’s “100 Most Influential People in the World” and, after finding his way into Oprah’s good graces, he will be hosting a new talk show. “The Rob Bell Show” will premiere on the OWN Network on December 21st.

“Through riveting conversations with a live audience, and by incorporating creative on-camera storytelling, Rob—as only he can—explores themes such as owning your story and wonder and awe,” according to the show’s description.

Ask Pastor Rick

Pastor Rick should Christians celebrate Christmas?

This is a question that comes up every year, so I understand your feelings about the issue. I want to offer this bit of assurance in my answer; it is not my goal to

justify something that is inherently wrong, but neither do I want to foster a form of legalism on the matter. That being said, the way in which the “world” celebrates Christmas and its idea of the “Christmas spirit,” is far from Bible events, and distorts the meaning of the birth of our blessed Savior and the reason for his coming.

But if we avoided everything the “world” distorts, we would have to disassociate ourselves from other things that the Bible clearly teaches that Christians should do. Take marriage, for example. Just because the world has distorted it, doesn’t make it wrong and something Christians should avoid.

The pagan concepts associated with the tree, their winter festivals, and other features of the Christmas season lost their significance and meaning years and years ago just as did the names of the days of the week, all of which were once associated with pagan beliefs.

Regardless, I think it is significant that (at least in my experience as a pastor and Bible student for many years) the majority of those who hold conservative, evangelical beliefs about the person and work of Christ, find no problem with the celebration of Christmas as long as certain precautions are provided. That doesn’t mean, or prove, that it is okay, but it does suggest that a large number of people who love the Savior and have given their lives in full-time service just have not found this to be an issue.

There is a Christian principle found in Romans 14 that guides my thinking on matters such as the one you have raised. It says, “One person regards one day above another, another regards every day alike. Each person must be fully convinced in his own mind.” [14:5] In the final analysis, each person needs to be persuaded in his own mind and not act against his or her own conscience or convictions in this matter.

Howdy! From Lake Cuyamaca “Dusty Britches” here along with “Skid Mark” and “Cuss Cussler”.

We are still getting some very nice sized trout out of the old pond. The weather has cooled off considerably and the summer season is now officially over which means our “Off Season” specials are in. Give us a call to find out what you can take advantage of in the fishing and camping arena.

The Hernandez family of San Diego caught their limit with the largest trout coming in at 7 pounds shorefishing at Lone Pine; Jay Dillistin of El Cajon included a 10 pound 4 ounce “bow” in his limit using Hatchery Nuggets and night crawlers between the west finger jetty and the dam on the west shore; Steve Lasagna of Poway brought in a 9 pound 8 ounce rainbow using a mice tail along the island shoreline; Craig and Sheila Richards of Chula Vista caught their limit at Chambers Park… included in their stringer was an 8 pound 8 ounce rainbow; Hunter Provience walked away with a 14 pound 12 ounce stringer of beauties using night crawlers at Lone Pine with the largest rainbow weighing in at 8 pounds 12 ounces; “BLUE MOON” Larry, a regular, from Poway caught his limit (he usually does) on the dike.

Included in his catch was a 12 pound 8 ounce rainbow; Ronnie Page of Santee while fishing the shore at Lone Pine brought in a 9 pounder using rainbow power bait; Robert Walker of Imperial Beach using a chartreuse and white power worm on 4 pound test line and a 12 inch leader caught an 8 pounder at Lone Pine; Mike Sayac of Lakeside included a 7 pound 8 ounce rainbow in his stringer using green power bait at Lone Pine; and David F. Garls of Spring Valley reeled in an 8 pounder at Chamber’s Park as part of his stringer using a silver “Kastmaster”.

Waterfowl hunting has begun.

We have hunts on Wednesdays and Sunday mornings so if you plan to come up and fish, hike or camp, keep that in mind. Jay Blaylock is running the show. If you are interested, give him a call. The restaurant is dishing out some good eats. Give them a try if you’re in the neighborhood !

12 The Julian News the first step is we’ll use it as a filtration media, and then we’ll move to agriculture as the cost of production of biochar comes down.”

As far as environmentalists are concerned, the greater the demand for biochar the better, given the fact that it is a potent storage mechanism for carbon dioxide that would otherwise head into the atmosphere and contribute to climate change.

“The carbon in biochar resists degradation and can hold carbon in soils for hundreds to thousands of years,” reports IBI. “We can use this simple, yet powerful, technology to store 2.2 gigatons of carbon annually by 2050. It’s one of the few technologies that is relatively inexpensive, widely applicable and quickly scalable.

We really can’t afford not to pursue it.”

Dear EarthTalk: What is biochar and how can it help reduce my carbon footprint?

-- William Jarvis, Bethlehem, PA Biochar is a naturally occurring, fine-grained, highly porous form of charcoal derived from the process of baking biomass—and it’s been associated with fertile soils for some two thousand years. “Biochar is found in soils around the world as a result of vegetation fires and historic soil management practices,” reports the International Biochar Initiative (IBI), a trade group representing the world’s burgeoning biochar industry. “Intensive study of biochar-rich dark earths in the Amazon has led to a wider appreciation of biochar’s unique properties as a soil enhancer.”

Indeed, researchers have been hard at work perfecting their own methods for manufacturing biochar by baking biomass in giant oxygen-free kilns. The resulting biochar can then be used as a soil amendment to help restore tired, compromised farmland, not to mention contaminated industrial sites, all the while taking carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. A liquid by-product of the biochar production process can also be converted into a carbon-neutral “biofuel” that can displace other carbon intensive fuels.

Farmers can layer biochar into their fields where it becomes part of the soil matrix and helps retain water and essential agricultural nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium.

“You can basically think of it as a soil reef upon which abiotic and biotic phenomena happen,” says David Shearer, CEO of Full Circle Biochar, one of a handful of U.S. based biochar start-ups working

Biochar and bioenergy co-production can help combat global climate change by displacing fossil fuel use and by sequestering carbon in stable soil carbon pools. It may also reduce emissions of nitrous oxide.

We can use this simple, yet powerful, technology to store 2.2 gigatons of carbon annually by 2050. It’s one of the few technologies that is relatively inexpensive, widely applicable, and quickly scalable. to commercialize the age-old “technology.” Farmers like the fact that using biochar can lower their water and fertilizer bills as well as yield more and better quality agricultural products—leading to better market performance overall. “This is really a hedge for farmers,” reports Shearer.

“It really helps them manage their financial risk and it helps them manage risk into the future around production.”

Beyond agriculture, biochar can also be used to clean up polluted land. “For example, if you have a mine that has contaminated soil adjacent to it, biochar ... will allow you to remediate soils,” says Shearer.

He adds that biochar also makes for an excellent filtration medium: “We know that activated charcoal has been used for millennia as a filter mechanism, and so there is discussion in the biochar community that maybe

California Commentary

The Prop. 30 Tax Hike Should Retire On Schedule

by Jon Coupal

No matter how high taxes are increased, it’s never enough for public officials and bureaucrats who live off taxpayer funded paychecks. According to these people, there is always one more dollar that is needed to make government “whole.” And being made “whole” in California means maintaining the highest paid government employees in all 50 states.

So it should come as no surprise that the tax-and-spend interests have already begun banging the drum and shaking the tambourine on behalf of extending Proposition 30, the “temporary” tax increase approved by voters in 2012.

Proposition 30 imposed the highest income tax rate in America. It also bumped up the sales tax – a tax that hits lower income families particularly hard — to tops in the nation.

The sales tax component of Proposition 30 is set to expire at the end of 2016 and the higher income tax rate will sunset in 2018, so those who feed off taxes are starting to panic.

During the last year, some lawmakers resisted putting Proposition 2 on the November ballot because it required the establishment of a rainy day fund to tide government over through lean times. These Sacramento politicians were concerned that if it passed, and the state had money in the bank, it would be more difficult to make the case that the Proposition 30 taxes should be made permanent.

State schools chief Tom Torlakson came out for the extension of Proposition 30 long ago, and we are now seeing the head of one of the state’s two major teachers unions, the California Federation of Teachers, calling for its continuation while maintaining it is not enough.

Of course, it’s never enough.

Writing in the Sacramento Bee, teachers union president Joshua Pechthalt attempts to make the case that the temporary tax hike should be extended. He justifies his position by claiming California is thriving and upper income individuals, unfazed by the higher taxes, are happy to stay and pay.

Not so fast.

While Pechthalt believes things are fine now that our economy is supposedly in a “recovery,” working families aren’t seeing

it. Our unemployment rate is the third highest in the nation and the US Census puts our supplemental poverty ranking at worst in the country.

Pechthalt’s evidence that Proposition 30 has not impacted high income individuals seems to be that wealthier communities, like Beverly Hills, have not become ghost towns.

Objective real estate reports from Nevada and other low or no income tax states make it clear that California has indeed lost many upper income taxpayers because of Proposition 30. The Wall Street Journal reported that “many Californians have arrived [in Nevada] in the wake of Proposition 30. Passed at the end of 2012, the measure hiked personal income and sales taxes.” The San Francisco Chronicle published a piece in January of this year entitled “State leaders closely watch migrating millionaires” noting that “whether you sympathize or not, millionaires’ migrating out of California has serious consequences to the state’s bottom line and is something state leaders are watching closely.”

The other problem with the union leader’s thesis is that we simply don’t know how many of California’s high earners decided to absorb the confiscatory tax rates for a couple of years knowing that they would eventually expire.

If made permanent, the existing millionaire out-migration could very well turn into a torrent.

So, instead of asking whether we should make Proposition 30’s temporary tax hikes permanent, a better question would be whether those tax hikes were needed at all or, better yet, did they inflict more harm than good?

There is compelling evidence that California would today be grabbing a bigger slice of the national economic recovery had it not passed Proposition 30 at all.

Jon Coupal is president of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association — California’s largest grass-roots taxpayer organization dedicated to the protection of Proposition 13 and the advancement of taxpayers’ rights.

how intensely I mean it. You only get one chance. And this chance isn’t going to wait for you, it won’t appear when you ask and it won’t be an easy choice. This chance will be quick and probably the most difficult decision you’ll even make. But the question is, are you going to have the courage to take the chance? Are you going to be willing to, if necessary, drop everything and take it? Let me tell you something, when you are on your deathbed, you are more likely to regret the chances you didn’t take than the ones you did.

Now I’m not talking about drugs or alcohol, I’m talking about the opportunity to do something great. Something that will change your life forever and make you a better person for it. Life is not a game. You don’t get a second chance to make a choice. Once you’ve done something, it’s done. Now there will be times when you’ll make a mistake and fail. But failure doesn’t mean you quit. It means you get back up and try harder. It means you look life in the eye and say “I won’t back down or quit. I’m going to stand my ground and try even harder.” Look, life isn’t that hard guys. You can either accept your situations and grow from them, or you can cry and moan and say how bad your life is and how everyone should automatically treat you nice because you have a harder challenge. If you have a harder challenge then you have more of an opportunity to reap better rewards. The harder you work for something, the more it’s worth to you. The longer you wait for a chance, the more you value it when it comes along. You don’t quit, you don’t rest and you don’t complain. You keep going, you endure longer and you be thankful you are alive. Life is a gift guys. A gift so precious that we have to pay for it with death.

So make the most of your lives.

Don’t waste the precious time you’ve been given here.

the direction you expected to take.

A potentially troublesome money matter needs your immediate attention.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Your holiday preparations are on track. But you need to confront a personal situation while you can still keep it from overwhelming everything else.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Tight financial matters ease a bit during this holiday season. But the sagacious Sagittarian is well-advised to keep a tight hold on the reins while shopping for gifts.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Don't put off making decisions about this year's holiday celebrations, despite the negative comments you've been getting from several quarters. Do it NOW! AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) The holidays will bring new friends and new opportunities. Meanwhile, be careful to use your energy wisely as you go about making holiday preparations.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) There's good news coming from a most unlikely source. And it could turn out to be one of the best holiday gifts you have had in years.

Remember to stay positive.

BORN THIS WEEK: You are respected for your honesty and loyalty. You make friends slowly -but with rare exceptions, they're in your life forever.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Right now you are especially vulnerable to holiday scams that seek to take advantage of your generosity. Best advice: Check them out before you send out your checks.

Relationships grow stronger, and new opportunities loom on the horizon, just waiting to be pounced on.
