Community Choir Handel’s Messiah Sunday

This Sunday, December 20th @ 7pm in our town hall, there will be a musical presentation of Handel's Messiah.

The Julian Community Choir will sing all the beautiful choruses from the Christmas portion of this famous oratorio. Soloists from around the county will sing the arias, and our wonderful Evans String Quartet and pianist will provide accompaniment.

This year we are also adding a trumpeter and timpanist for the "Hallelujah Chorus." Please plan to attend this exciting production which has become a tradition during our holiday season.

The concert is supported by the Community United Methodist Church of Julian and The Julian Arts Guild. Your free-will offering are also most welcome.

Ed White showing off the recognition for his PAC12 Hall Of Fame Induction photo by Joan White Julian’s resident All-Pro, Ed White was honored by the PAC-12 for his collegiate football career, we remember Ed from his Charger day (and Vikings before them) as an All-Pro guard. Many do not realize that in college Ed was on the other side of the ball, as a All-American defensive tackle. Following his retirement, he was inducted into College Football Hall of Fame, University of California Hall of Fame, Breitbard Hall of Fame, East-West Shrine Game Hall of Fame, and the San Diego Charger Hall of Fame. Indio High School named their football field Ed White Stadium in honor of Ed. From Ed’s Thank You to his many friends and fans: I need to thank so many...achievement to me is a team thing...my team is strong...here they are...

I want to thank all my teammates at Cal who helped me be the best I could be...and I was a part of a team...within the team one of the best defenses Cal has ever put on the field...thanks guys. Secondly, the coaches that allowed me to be the crazy self I am ...Coach Ray Willsey, a fantastic leader, and Wild Bill 'Strike a lick' Dutton! Thanks Coach...you were a GREAT D- Line Mentor....My Sigma Chi Fraternity brothers who made my student athlete experience a family affair... thanks Brothers!

Thank you to The University of California at Berkeley...I will always love you...you have given me so much...

I also want to thank all my friends who took the time to cast a vote for me...that was huge. My brother Dr Paul who was relentless in his help to achieve this. My sisters Joan and Connie, and my little brother Chuck...Thanks. You guys I love so much, and I have been so blessed to call you my brothers and sisters.

My family who have always been at my side..Mom and Dad who enjoyed my football experience as much as I did. Dad, I felt your spirit at the game yesterday... They drove the old Buick all the way up the 5 to all my home games at Memorial Stadium.

Joan, my companion since your Sophomore year at Indio High.

You are the reason I have achieved anything. I love you more each day. You have taken care of me since day one, and I walk with the certainty that will always be the case..

And lastly I thank God . He has had his hand on my shoulder pads for almost 69 years. Thank you for taking care of my little Angel Amy, who sits on my other shoulder.

This feels like more than "15 seconds of fame" ...it feels like a lot of love which is the best...

THANK YOU...ED After compiling ballots from 119 players, coaches and media members, the Pac-12 Networks announced the Pac-12's "All-Century Team" on Wednesday, with John Elway and Ronnie Lott named Offensive and Defensive Players of the Century, respectively, and John McKay honored as Coach of the Century.

Science Class At Junior High

Girls Basketball

The 8th grade students at Julian Junior High are exploring science in a many ways. This past week, Professor Nira Clark, who teaches Zoology at Southwestern College, brought up already dissected pigeons, frogs, turtles and fish for the 8th grade students to have the opportunity to find the parts of the organisms.

She also dissected a heart and we did a lung inflation demonstration so students had the opportunity to see how lungs work. This gave our students a chance to have a true visual of what we are learning about in class, something they might not be able to experience until college. Being able to give the students a hands on experience, was eye opening for some and sparked interest in others who through this experience may have developed a deeper interest in the field of science.

We enjoyed Professor Clark sharing her passion for science with our students. We sent her home with an Julian apple pie and our students are sending thank you cards to her. We look forward to having her come back to Julian Junior High next year.

A hello to my fellow Julianites: Hello; my name is Dominic.

Being a resident in Julian for 44 years now I know a good portion of you and a lot of new faces I don’t. So, a fond hello to all of you. I could use some help from anyone that likes to make a difference. I have been trying to start a pilot project here in Julian called “The Cariya Project.

The objective of the project is to provide free produce, veggies, fish, eggs, and meats to our local school lunch programs. If I could launch and successfully make “The Cariya Project” work here in Julian then the eventual goal would be to, try and help people worldwide establish the same program. My idea is to start a self-sufficient farm that could generate its own capital to support itself. Running on solar power, wells, and greenhouses utilizing aquaponics systems, and in ground gardening. It can be done rather cheaply. People who help around the farm will earn discounts on product. Local restaurants will be able to buy low cost local products year round, we feed the schools. And best of all we save thousands a year in tax dollars in Julian alone (I have done extensive research on this and the figures are staggering how many tax dollars are spent on food programs in San Diego county). The back bone of “The Cariya Project” here in Julian would be a wedding venue.

Fully catered with everything coming straight from the farm.

You see, my family and I have been taking care of this 150 year old, dilapidated ranch house and property here in Julian for the last three years. It has been a trying time but, we have made it our home. Now it is up for sale and I know in my heart, with a little love (ok, maybe a Lot of love) it would be the perfect spot to start this project. I can do just about all aspects in the construction industry. I can grow anything. And love cooking.

So I have most the knowledge I need to get the ball rolling for right now. But everybody’s help eventually would be greatly appreciated. What I don’t have is a lot of knowledge of, the legal aspects of raising funds or possibly starting a not for profit.

I could use all the help I can get in these departments. If anyone could spare some time to help me out in this endeavor it would be greatly appreciated. I am not afraid to work to make this dream come to fruition. I love Julian. And after the military, it’s this reason I came back. Because it is our home. And I would love to give back to our community by helping

feed our children and maybe change the world one farm at a time. I can be reached at “The Cariya Project” on Facebook. Or by email at Dregs68@hotmail. com I thank you for your time. I know with your help we can start something amazing. Any and all feedback is welcome.

Thanks again, Dominic Regalado

Dear Editor: Burn permits are now available, but they are difficult to get because no one answers the (usually locked) door at the fire station. There is no bell and although a large screen TV is on and visible, no one apparently can hear someone knocking.

There isn’t any mailbox or way to leave a note so it won’t blow away except by (rudely) taping it to the door…so I am hoping that CalFire will see this letter and install a doorbell.

Thank you.

Name withheld by request Thank Heaven For Hog Heaven!

The Country Christmas committee thanks Nancy and Ed Pisano of Hog Heaven for donating a very large box of brand new white LED strings for our buildings in downtown Julian.

We received these lights several weeks before we began this year's decorating, and I left the Pisano's off last week's "thank you" list. Nancy and Ed: sincere apologies!

Ed Glass The Hoskings Ranch Planning Commission Hearing, originally scheduled for December 11, 2015, was granted a continuation and will now take place on February 5, 2016, at 9 a.m. The continuation was negotiated at a meeting by representatives from Julian with staff from the Planning Commission and a representative of the Hoskings’ owners, at the Planning Commission offices in San Diego late Thursday, December 10. Overall, it was the result of efforts of Julian residents to gain more time to evaluate this proposal.

Approximately fifty persons had met in the Town Hall the previous Tuesday, in spite of short notice and competing events, to voice their concerns about the development. Major reservations centered on water, visual pollution and traffic but there was also a general sense that this kind of development would further alter the small town continued on page 14

Sheriff’s Locate And Rescue Lost Hiker

High-Tech Clothing Helps Overcome High Stress

On Saturday, December 12 at 9:16 p.m., Deputy Sheriffs from the Borrego and Ranchita area responded to a report of a missing hiker in the Rockhouse Canyon area, west of the Clark Dry Lake area in Borrego Springs. This area is located within a California State Park.

The hiker, 55 year old former Marine, John Sanchez of Riverside, CA had been out with others looking for a grounded weather balloon with a GPS device attached. He was last seen by his companions at about 3:00 p.m. when they became separated. The companions were unable to locate him (although the weather balloon was located and recovered). The companions called the Sheriff's Communication Center for assistance. Deputies called in various air assets during the night and checked the area with negative results.

Because the evening temperatures dropped into the low 40's in this remote location, and due to minimal supplies carried by Mr. Sanchez, he was classified as a "Missing Person At Risk." Sheriff's Search and Rescue (SAR) were activated at 3:01 a.m., Sunday morning to assist in the search, along with California State Park Rangers.

At dawn, Sheriff's "ASTREA" and United States Border Patrol "Omaha" helicopters responded and worked with SAR ground units in the field. At 8:25 a.m., Mr. Sanchez was located in the rugged terrain of Rockhouse Canyon area by the Omaha crew, after being directed by ground SAR personnel. The rescue location was in Riverside County about ½ mile north of the San Diego County line. ASTREA landed nearby, and performed a preliminary medical assessment. Mr. Sanchez was found to be in good physical condition.

He suffered through a frigid night in the elements without any serious medical consequences. He was flown to the command post area on Rockhouse Trail and eventually reunited with his hiking companions and family members.

(Family Features) Athletic styling continues to increase its influence on casual clothing - often referred to as "athleisure" apparel - with innovative fabric treatments associated with high-performance activewear making their way into basic apparel; even underwear.

Temperature-control and wicking technology that draws moisture away from skin, initially developed to keep athletes dryer and more comfortable while training and competing, can now be found in items we wear every day, including T-shirts, underwear and socks.

"Comfort is the biggest factor when choosing basic clothing, so it's little surprise the technology that makes high-performance sportswear so appealing to athletes is being well received in casual, everyday apparel," said Jay Turner, president of underwear, panties and socks at HanesBrands, which has introduced X-Temp, a dynamic temperature control and cooling technology, to its product lineup.

"There is no such thing as too much comfort in underwear."

After all, the gym is hardly the only place where temperatures rise and perspiration follows. Sometimes life sets the thermostat to "really uncomfortable," especially with normal workday pressures. From interviewing for a new job, making a big presentation or dealing with a demanding boss, there are countless scenarios in the workplace that call for keeping your cool.

Fit meets function Athletic apparel was once only worn for specific athletic activities, but now demand has inspired manufacturers to deliver the same style and comfort in more affordable, everyday apparel. One of the key components of comfort is temperature regulation, and a hightech Swiss company, HeiQ, developed the Adaptive technology that actually responds to body temperature changes by turning moisture wicking on or off, much like the skin does naturally. You want more evaporation to keep you feeling cooler when the body is warmer and less evaporation when you are chilled.

Top brands are now incorporating this technology into their collections. For example, Champion PowerTrain T-shirts, hoodies and training pants (look for "Vapor" on the label) are made from virtually weightless fast-drying fabric that wicks moisture for sweatfree comfort, no matter what else you're wearing and what you're doing.

Underneath it all

Create New Traditions Using Technology This Holiday Season (StatePoint) The winter months come with many gifts to wrap and unwrap, parties to plan, family-style meals to whip up -- the list goes on. Now more than ever, technology can help us get creative with how to make time with family more meaningful, and then help us capture all the fun so the memories last far longer than just a moment.

Here’s how to get started.

Make Things to Share Interactive computers such as Sprout by HP are recreating what it means to make things by merging the physical and digital worlds.

Sprout is what HP calls an Immersive Computer; it comes with a touch screen, touch mat, overhead projector, HD camera and 3D scanner.

With Sprout, you can grab holiday-inspired items -- like holiday wreaths or jingle bells -- and easily scan them into the device. There are several different free apps available that can help you create, learn, interact and share.

Do-It-Yourself Decorating If you’re in the mood to get crafty with the family, you can make non-traditional items such as garlands out of leftover sprinkles from continued on page 9

When things heat up, keeping your cool depends on that first layer of fabric against your skin. That's why it's important to choose undergarments designed to respond to your body temperature. By incorporating the same cooling technology used in active apparel, Hanes has introduced X-Temp undershirts, socks and men's and women's underwear that wick moisture away from consumers when warm. Soon you will even be able to find bras that incorporate the technology.

"Technology continues to migrate from athletic wear to underwear as part of the athleisure trend," Turner said. "For consumers, comfort is 24-7 and knows no boundaries."

To learn more about comfortable, casual clothing with the technology to meet your lifestyle needs, visit hanes.com.

How it Works Fabrics that adapt to the body's temperature to speed or slow down cooling for all-day comfort may seem a little sci-fi. Actually, it's what happens when technology meets textile to pair the high-performance qualities desired in athletic wear with the unmatched comfort of soft cotton.

Swiss company HeiQ developed a hydro functional polymer that makes fabric dynamic, enabling it to respond to body temperature and deliver both wicking and evaporation benefits. This technology turns moisture into vapor to move it away from the body, which is continued on page 14

Tips For Picking And Presenting Perfect Holiday Gifts

(StatePoint) With a few simple tips, your holiday gifts can be personal, meaningful and beautifully wrapped.

Pick a Present Spend time brainstorming. Make a list of the recipient’s hobbies, activities you’ve done together, favorite places -- anything that might inspire a gift. Take a look at the recipient’s social media pages to see which brands he or she likes or follows, or pinned on Pinterest.

Does your brother follow tech blogs? Purchase the latest tech trend, like a smart watch. Does your best friend pin anything with a monogram? Find great gifts on sites like Etsy or Personal Creations, which offer items that can be engraved or monogrammed for a completely one-of-a-kind present.

Head to the store or look online with a specific idea in mind, so you’re not overwhelmed.

Shop Smart Do a quick search online for available deals, and to compare prices from different retailers. Deal-sharing sites like Slickdeals provide information on offers across a wide range of product categories, while sites like PriceZombie allow you to track costs for your preferred present. The site will send you an alert when the item’s price drops.

Some research also helps you discover which stores have the best selection (and return policy). Be sure to get a gift receipt, especially if purchasing clothing.

Knowing exactly where you need to go -- the sporting goods store, the shoe section, the beauty aisle -- simplifies the entire process.

Personalize Packaging Make the wrapping as extraordinary as the gift with fun, creative packaging. Colorful wrapping paper in your recipient’s favorite color or pattern is always a good choice. Next, embellish with ribbons, bows or glittery tapes. Finally, don’t forget a card to express how you feel.

Remember, commercial packaging lacks the personal charm and care of a gift wrapped and shipped by you. Luckily, brands like Duck brand offer all the materials you need to easily -- and safely -- ship your wonderfully wrapped gifts.

Start by selecting the right shipping materials for the size of your item. You may want to consider a cushioned envelope, such as those from the Bubble Wrap brand, when possible, as they’re more costeffective for shipping smaller items, plus provide extra protection for your shipped goods. For larger gifts, wrap them in several layers of Bubble Wrap cushioning for safety, then ship in a clean, sturdy box.

Seal the box with strong packaging tape, like EZ Start packaging tape. It won’t split or tear; plus the tape’s Frustration Free special release technology means you never lose the tape end, making the entire process easier.

For an even more festive look, consider using a colored or printed packaging tape, wrapping items in colored Bubble Wrap, like purple or red, or adding stickers to the outside of the box -- just be sure there’s room for the shipping label.

With planning and creativity, you can purchase and present the perfect gifts for loved ones this year.

EAST OF PINE HILLS

by Kiki Skagen Munshi

(The quince is the sole member of the genus Cydonia in the family Rosaceae. It is a small deciduous tree that bears a pome fruit, similar in appearance to a pear, and bright golden-yellow when mature.)

This year we were awash in quinces, those relatives of the apple, yellow and fragrant and sour. The only question was what to do with them besides look at them in the fruit bowl and inhale deeply.

So, anticipating harvest riches, we had collected recipes through the months. One was stuffed quinces from (the former Soviet Socialist Republic of) Georgia. Perhaps formerly Soviet Socialists are better at hollowing out fruit than we are—here in our corner of the mountains there always seems to be more stuffing than space.

In any case, it didn’t taste very good, unlike most recipes from our (former Soviet Socialist Republic of) Georgia cookbook. A shame, we’d been eyeing that recipe all summer.

Then we found a recipe in a Foodie Magazine for pork belly and quinces. Trust Foodie Magazines to come up with ingredients no one EVER has in their pantry or fridge (presumably because they ran out of real recipes years ago) but, surprise! Oh Foodie Magazine, we just happened to have a pork belly and, of course(!) quinces. We took out the pork belly, eyed it, then peeled and sliced the quinces. We fried pork belly pieces twice (no comments please) and…

It was awful. Little hunks of twice fried pork belly melting grease all over innocent quinces. Scratch that one.

Back in the Day Grandmother Myrta made quince jelly, lovely shimmering jars of pinky gold goodness so that was next. Year before last we made “Quince Liquid Jelly” which hung around until very recently. Finally having poured the last of it over hotcakes, we decided to try Regular Quince Jelly.

Being careful to boil the quince extract and sugar longer than two years ago but not too long to sugar, we came out with beautiful jars of, no…yes…, all right: Semi-solid quince goo. Maybe Quince PreTaffy? Perhaps Quince Doorstops? Jelly it isn’t and someday we’ll figure out a use for it.

But at least it didn’t sugar.

HOME SERVICES

by Michele Harvey

What Are You Doing To Help I’m getting really tired of people who say we should help the homeless instead of helping the refugees. Why does this situation have to be an either/or situation? Why aren’t all people who have the ability to help, helping every one that needs help?

I, like my friends, are helping everyone we can in every way we can.

Churches in Julian are very actively helping needy people. The United Methodist church in Julian continues the tradition of a Holiday Food drive that was started by Jim and Cheryl Sedoris here in Julian, many years ago. Vee Lumpkin carried on the tradition for years and now our Methodist church puts boxes out at the schools so children can put non-perishable food items in the boxes to be distributed to families in need of a little help. How difficult is it for the average person to contribute one non-perishable food item once a month, instead of just at Christmas time? Non-perishable food items can be dropped off at the Julian Methodist church any day of the year. That food will be given to people who really need it. Other churches may also have food distribution programs in our area. Look for their ads here in The Julian News and call them if you can help in any way.

If you live outside the Julian area, call your local churches and schools to find ways to help people in your area. You may find that you can help homeless people and other needy people in ways that you never imagined. When I help others my feelings about myself improve. I think it’s natural for most of us to feel good when we can help someone improve their life even a little bit.

In our country, 60,000 homeless veterans need help. In San Diego and across the country, Operation Stand Down helps veterans each year. If you don’t know about Operation Stand Down, which originated in San Diego in 1988, please do your best to learn as much as you can about this very important support that is now being given to our veterans in over 200 locations across our country.

From the Veterans Village of San Diego website, “What is a Stand Down?

In times of war exhausted combat units requiring time to rest and recover were removed from the battlefields to a place of relative safety and security. Other rested units assumed the watch. Today, Stand Down refers to a time when our homeless veterans can remove themselves from the combat of the streets and allow VVSD and the community of San Diego to stand the watch so they can receive needed services and rest.

If you seriously want to help homeless veterans, donate online or send a check made payable to Veterans Village of San Diego, 4141 Pacific Highway San Diego, CA 92110.”

"The program has become recognized as the most valuable outreach tool to help homeless veterans in the nation today," according to the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans. “Last July 4500 volunteers gave their time and their expertise to help veterans during San Diego’s Operation Stand Down.

“Stand Down's philosophy is a hand up, not a hand out. Stand Down is more than a place to get ... it is a place to belong, once again, to a community.”

Not all homeless people are veterans and all homeless people get very cold in winter. I know that Julian has people who crochet and knit hats and scarves for homeless people who need warm clothing.

Others make little hats for new born babies and other people make quilts and blankets for people in need of a little bit of help.

Listening to a KPBS radio program a few years ago, I learned a few things about homeless people that never would have entered my mind. They are glad to get knitted or crocheted hats and scarves, but only in dull colors. They want to blend into their environment. They don’t want their clothing to shout out their presence.

Sometimes I wonder if saying Merry Christmas to a person who doesn’t know if they will freeze to death during the night, or slowly starve to death because they have no expectations of food… is that a slap in the face? I sometimes give a gift of food in a bag that has all pre-packaged food and drink items inside. I learned this from people at my church, the Julian United Methodist Church. One day a group of us got together and filled lunch sized bags with non-perishable items. If you have a few extra dollars and a small bit of time, put together bags of pre-packaged food yourself. When I give a bag that has a beef stick, cheese and crackers, canned fruit, juice and maybe a small package of cookies or pudding along with a spoon, napkins and maybe a packaged wipe; I know I can say Merry Christmas as I hand one of these bags to someone in need because I am helping that homeless person to have a Merrier Christmas.

Have you ever helped in a soup kitchen or in any other place where homeless people are fed and treated with dignity while being helped to get through one more day? It’s easy to say that we should help the homeless instead of helping refugees, but how many are actually doing it? How many people forgo their expensive vacations to give time or money to homeless people? How many people will give up just one cruise or buy a used car instead of a new one so they can financially help the organizations that help homeless people? Until you can say that you already do all that you can to help our country’s homeless; you have no right to tell anyone that they shouldn’t help refugees. Most homeless people aren’t homeless on purpose and refugees aren’t in need of homes in foreign countries because they feel safe in their homelands.

Merry Christmas is a very nice thing to say to people, but I can’t say it to everyone because I know some have no apparent reason to be Merry. I say Happy Holy Days to all of you who believe in a higher power and I hope that this holiday season brings on a peaceful year.

Please help all who need help and don’t close your minds to one group because you think others need your help more.

These are my thoughts

Taking The Pressure Off Cold Weather Driving (NAPSA)-Heavy snow and slick ice on the roads can be a white-knuckle experience for even the most experienced drivers if the automobile isn't properly outfitted for the weather.

While knowing proper driving techniques is important, a good set of winter tires can be the difference between getting where you have to go safely and feeling your heart leap into your throat as your car slides through an ice-covered intersection.

So what do you need to know?

Here's a list of commonly asked questions along with answers to help you understand how winter tires can help you.

What's the difference between "winter tires" and "snow tires"?

Winter tires are designed to

work in all winter conditions, not just snow. The tire compounds are optimized to provide grip even on dry roads in weather below 45¡ Fahrenheit. Also, winter tread patterns are designed to provide excellent grip in icy and snowy conditions.

Can I use studded winter tires?

Studded winter tires were once perceived as loud and damaging to the road. However, through innovations in studding technology, the noise and road wear from the studs have been greatly reduced. Now, there is little difference between a studded tire and a winter tire without studs. For instance, Nokian Tyres, a Finnish company known for its expertise in developing and testing tires in demanding

(StatePoint) The cold weather can be just as hard on pets as it is on people. This winter, consider these tips to keep your four-legged family members safe and warm.

Warm up on Walks If you decide to brave the cold for daily walks, there are a few risks to keep in mind. Wind chill can be dangerous, no matter what the temperature is, according to The Humane Society. Pets can be at risk for frostbite and hypothermia during extreme cold snaps, and exposed skin on noses, ears and paw pads can quickly freeze and suffer permanent damage.

On walks, keep your pet warm with a sweater or coat. Small booties or paw gel will help keep sensitive paws from freezing. And if you’d rather not risk a slippery walk outside, try exercising your furry friend at an indoor dog park or doggy daycare.

Stay Safe The salt used to de-slick an icy road can be dangerous and toxic to pets, often irritating the pads of their feet. In addition, coolants and antifreeze may drip from cars, making an easy transfer to sensitive paws. When returning from a walk, be sure to wipe down paws with a damp cloth before he or she has a chance to lick them.

Take Shelter It’s always best to provide warm, dry shelter indoors for your pets in the winter months; however, if your pets must stay outdoors, there are a few ways to make their shelter safe and comfortable.

The Humane Society recommends raising the shelter a few inches off the ground and covering the floor with cedar shavings or straw. The doorway should be positioned away from the wind, and the shelter covered with waterproof burlap or heavy plastic. The American Veterinary Medical Association urges owners to provide unlimited access to fresh water. Change the water frequently to avoid freezing, or use a heated water bowl.

Keep Pets Secure Consider your pet’s car safety before pulling out of the driveway.

Pet carriers, car seats and back seat barriers can provide additional safety as you drive, especially in the event of an accident or sudden stop.

Also, you may want to explore pet injury coverage. For example, Erie Insurance automatically covers up to two dogs and/or cats that are injured in your vehicle during an accident. For more information, continued on page 9

Don't let cold weather get your tires down. Get winter tires. northern conditions, makes a winter tire, the Hakkapeliitta 8, that features a new tread pattern with 50 percent more studs than its predecessor. When compared to studded tires of the past, these modern studded tires cause only 20 percent road wear in relation to the typical studded tires of the '60s and early '70s. This new stud technology makes the tire extremely gentle on its driving surface, even while its winter grip properties are better than ever before.

I don't get much snow, so why do I need snow tires?

In general, non-winter tires are designed for performance at 45¡ and above. When used in temperatures below this, the tire compounds harden in the cold weather and lose their

ability to grip. Winter tires are designed to provide grip in colder temperatures. This is why they're "winter" tires, not "snow" tiresthey provide increased safety in cold, not just snow.

"The truth is, winter tires are engineered specifically to perform most effectively in harsh environments where colder temperatures are the norm," said Bernie Del Duca, president of North America for Nokian. "Winter tires don't just combat snow and ice, they're specifically designed and tested to function better in areas where temperatures can drop down below freezing for months at a time."

Can't I just get two winter tires?

Chef’s Corner Holiday Dining With Diabetes

Holiday dining and celebrations are a culinary challenge for most Americans, especially those with diet-related illnesses. While I’m not a diabetic, my family medical history provides a cautionary tale. The American Diabetes Association estimates that 52 percent of Americans either have

diabetes or are pre-diabetic. This means millions of people have diabetes and don’t know it.

Because so many Americans -- including my husband, mother, father, youngest sister and many other family members and friends -- are diabetics, I decided to collect 150 of my favorite, healthy recipes and create “The Kitchen Diva’s Diabetic Cookbook: 150 Healthy, Delicious Recipes for Diabetics and Those Who Dine with Them.”

It addresses the health and dietary needs of pre-diabetics, juvenile diabetes, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics, women with gestational diabetes (related to pregnancy) and those with diabetic-related complications, along with anyone seeking to embrace a healthier diet and lifestyle.

Diabetes symptoms vary depending on how high your blood sugar is elevated. Some people, especially those with

prediabetes or Type 2 diabetes, may not experience symptoms initially. In Type 1 diabetes, however, symptoms tend to come on quickly and be more severe.

Some of the signs of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are increased thirst, frequent urination, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, presence in the urine of ketones (a by product of the breakdown of muscle and fat that happens when there’s not enough insulin), fatigue, blurred vision, slow-healing sores, mild high blood pressure and frequent infections, such as gum or skin infections and vaginal or bladder infections.

Throughout “The Kitchen Diva’s Diabetic Cookbook,” I’ve prepared recipes suitable for the dietary needs of a diabetic but also satisfying for non-diabetics. I use these recipes when entertaining family and friends, including this continued on page 14

Drug Free Julian meetings are being held. Principal, Mr. Schlottman, is taking the steps necessary to promote a healthier environment on campus. The teachers are concerned, and our community is worried as well.

In the midst of all this panic, I can only ask: when did the bad begin to get more attention than the good? There are so many bright students at Julian High more worthy of the time and attention that is being wasted on students that don’t care. Recently, Ethan Elisara broke the 5K school record by 16 seconds at the state cross country meet. This is amazing! Yet on campus, there was more talk of the last student found drinking on campus, than there was about Ethan’s great accomplishment. Ethan has pushed his body past limits that mediocre people can’t push through. He has made sacrifices other people wouldn’t be prepared to make. All of this done with his goal constantly burning at he back of his mind, pushing him forward.

Apparently this isn’t as big of a deal as the drinking and destructive acts taking place.

I believe that the problems at my high school are just a phase. It will pass. Like the swinging of a pendulum, things will begin to swing in the opposite direction. At this point in life, we students are set in our habits. We are like glass bottles just molded, but slowly hardening into adults, frozen in our ways. Those who are succeeding right now are going to continue to succeed. Those who are not will continue to be who they are. I’m especially referring to the Seniors, on the verge of complete independence and adult life. Those students can’t be changed at the end of the game. I advise the community of Julian to invest their time and concerns into the students of the Elementary and Jr. High. Create a rapport with these students. In the blink of an eye they will be in the high school, and they will be worthy of time and energy concentrated on success.

There are plenty of great students at Julian High School that deserve more. There are still those of us with the desire to do better.

It’s not hard to be “bad.” It’s hard to be “good.” Drinkers and smokers don’t work at their reputation. It’s the academics and the athletes that truly work. We are the ones who stay up past midnight working on AP homework, sacrificing time with our families and friends. We are the ones trying to find some free time during the weekends, not to relax, but to get a job or do some community service. We are the ones balancing the different parts of our lives so well that we can only succeed in life. When did bad become more deserving of attention than the good? I think it was when people forgot how much harder it is to be good than bad.

Guidance From Gwendoline

Dear Gwendoline, Winter break is approaching.

As you know, this is a three week chunk of time that is really one of the best Christmas presents one could receive. It's just that...I find that this amount of time is lost so quickly. I may plan to read a growing stack of books or clean my room thoroughly, but I just end up watching a new show on Netflix, embracing the feeling of no stress. My question is: how can I be productive this break, without falling into a lazy pattern?

How can I make the best of these three weeks ahead of me?

Sincerely, An Anonymous Student P.S. What books would you recommend to a reader out of worthy suggestions?

Dear Anonymous Student, Two books in particular came to mind when I read your question.

As a lover of all genres, I find the book The Martian, set in the year 2035, may spark interest in the sci-fi readers out there. In short, the book is basically a survival manual for life on Mars. Andy Weir illustrates every scene with his words in a in a beautiful and fluid manner. Mark Watney, the main character in the novel, becomes stranded on the desolate planet Mars after a planned mission was canceled due to an intense dust storm.

On the crews way back to the evacuation site, Mark was skewed with an antenna. The botanist slash mechanical engineer was thought to be dead, so he occupies his time with rationing—and growing—food and oxygen, while also attempting to reestablish communications with Earth. For those of you who have seen the movie, you know that you will not be sighing while you turn the pages and wishing the book had never been written. The beauty of this particular novel is that it’s an entirely plausible future that we have yet to reach.

For all the dog lovers out there, The Dogs of Babel by Carolyn Parkhurst is a must-read. Though it might be emotionally painful—and I’m warning you—it’s one of the most intensely ‘sorrowful’ books that I’ve ever read. The main character Paul Iverson is called home by a policeman who had found his wife, Lexy, to be dead. The only witness to Lexy’s death was their dog, Lorelei. Paul spends the remainder of the book attempting to teach Lorelei to speak, and he discovers more events about that tragic day. He recalls upon his life with Lexy leading up to her death. The title, The Dogs of Babel, alludes to the Tower of Babel which is a story that explains the existence of many languages.

Paul struggles to close the communication gap between him and Lorelei. The author has a wonderful way of evoking both scenes and emotions from a mere murmur of words. The Dogs of Babel is art. It’s meant to make you cry, it’s meant to make you think deeply, and it’s meant to make you feel love.

Authors worth mentioning: Audrey Niffenegger, Ian McEwan, Ray Bradbury, and Stephen King’s The Dark Tower series.

Sincerely,

The Time To Shop Is Now

Where The Trail Ends

Its that time of year again: time for the gut busting amounts of food, the family gatherings, and of course fighting that one person in Walmart for that new television because it's “such a deal.” The day after Thanksgiving (Black Friday) is always an exciting time of year, especially if you’re into getting out to all those stores and fighting through gangs of middle-aged women, arguing over the last set of pots and pans that each one of them need oh so badly. Some people prefer the rather heated battle of shopping a much better experience on Black Friday, perhaps they are training for a big closeout sale at one of their favorite stores.

While many people actually go out to stores to buy things, most people choose to spend this day lounging in their roller chairs holding a credit card in one hand and a plate of leftovers in the other, while searching the internet for a quick deal. There are a few people that use this time to buy presents for family and friends in a safer manner, avoiding any form of drama or fighting, but they usually end up just sticking with the internet purchases.

Surely this can only mean one thing, now that Thanksgiving has passed, that Christmas is upon us and approaching fast!

What better to get you in the spirit than searching all over stores for some gifts, especially when you find yourself distracted looking at things you want to get for yourself? Welcome to the Monday after Thanksgiving, but this is no regular Monday...no.

This is Cyber Monday! A day that was actually dedicated to people sitting in a chair and staring at a device, buying anything they see. Did you know that Black Friday was thought of as early as the 1930‘s. People must have really wanted to buy their family or friends a nice new clock.

So my fellow shopping nuts, I leave you with this: just hear those registers ring-it-ing chaching-ching-chingiting too come on it's lovely weather for a shopping spree together with you! Happy Holidays!

Ethan Elisara has worked his way from just quick to tremendously fast in a matter of two years. During eighth grade he showed a knack of tremendous speed in distance running, but didn’t put it to work until he joined the Julian High School Cross Country Team.

Coming in as a freshman not having much experience with the sport, he learned very quickly where he belonged in the lineup of his fellow runners on the team.

Running as a freshman at the speed of our much experienced seniors, he soon set a goal to break the 5K school record time at the high school - 17:00 minutes. Ethan worked hard the rest of that year, but came short, not quite able to make it to state.

Coming into this year with a specific goal to make it to state and possibly brake the school record, he worked as hard as he possibly could. He worked hard on fun runs, recovery runs, and work outs, anything he could do to make this dream possible. By the end of the season he had placed first in our league. He had one race he had to do well in to be able to go to state, the Mount Carmel CIF race. You have to place in the top 14 in order to go on to the state race. He raced and placed 3rd in his entire race and was on his way to the state meet in Fresno to race with all the other fastest runners in the state of California. All the things that lead up to this moment: the coaching that inspired him, all the friends that pushed him to go further, and his parents that supported him the whole way.

He race hard coming through the first mile at 4:58 and still going strong. He crossed the finish line a while later placing 44th overall and running an unbelievable time of 16:44, beating the school record by 16 seconds. He completed his dream goal two years faster than expected. From now on, he’ll be working to beat himself or perhaps something better than placing in state. We wish him luck. We couldn’t be more proud of him.

Basketball Season Is Here

by Shane Duffy, Junior Boys Basketball Player

Basketball Season is once again upon us, and the Julian Eagles Boys Varsity team is off to a fiery start! Beginning the season with just 5 players, they had many obstacles to overcome, however that didn’t slow them down. They won their first home game against Mountain Empire 43-38, with Senior Dennis Beresford, Sophomore Cody Perez, Junior Shane Duffy, Freshman Tyler Smith, and Freshman Shane Cranfield, led by Coach Javier Cordova. They were then joined

by Mason Baay, when they visited the San Diego Jewish Academy.

It was a close game, and they fought until the very end; however it was a rare loss. Since then, the boys team has grown tremendously to 12 players, and have worked hard for success. Our team motto before each game is, “We’re here to win, so let’s make it happen,” says Coach Cordova. Official league games start after Christmas break, and we hope that the community will continue to show their support by attending each exciting game.

Take A Look At Pell Grants To Help With College The Federal Pell Grant Program provides need-based grants to low-income undergraduate and certain postbaccalaureate students to promote access to postsecondary education.

Students may use their grants at any one of approximately 5,400 participating postsecondary institutions. Grant amounts are dependent on: the student's expected family contribution (EFC) (see below); the cost of attendance (as determined by the institution); the student's enrollment status (full-time or part-time); and whether

the student attends for a full academic year or less.

Students may not receive Federal Pell Grant funds from more than one school at a time.

Financial need is determined by the U.S. Department of Education using a standard formula, established by Congress, to evaluate the financial information reported on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and to determine the family EFC. The fundamental elements in this standard formula are the student's income (and assets if the student is independent), the

Lady Eagles Basketballl Alumn Pay it Forwad: Introducing the 2015-2016 Lady Eagles Basketball Team

by Emelia Gregor, Junior Girls Basketball Player

To be a team, a group must come together to achieve a common goal. Not only is winning a great prize, but the biggest win is teamwork. Whether it’s a success with a play or excellent defense, teamwork is the the Lady Eagles Basketball Team’s common goal.

Teamwork, of course, is applied with great communication skills and the ability to not give up on the team; more importantly, to not give up on themselves. The Lady Eagles Basketball Team lives by the “Six C’s”: Clarity, Courage, Consistency, Compassion, Commitment, and Contribution. Head Coach, Jen Brehm, and Assistant Coach, Teresa Linton, teach the girls to apply these skills not only on the court but off the court as well.

Both coaches are Lady Eagles Alumni. Jen (Rainey) Brehm is a 2009 alumni from Julian High School. After graduation, she attended San Diego Mesa Community College where she played basketball and graduated with an associate degree in sociology with an emphasis in child development in 2012. Coach Jen started coaching in 2012 because she loves the sport and she loves helping other aspiring athletes. The experience coaching in her home town at her alma mater has brought her great joy. One of the most inspirational people from her high school experience was Mr. Mark Aumann. She hopes to bring the same inspiration to the team who are growing through their journey in life that Aumann gave to her. Teresa Linton is a 2012 alumni from Julian High School. She is currently attending Palomar Community College. Coach Teresa returned to help coach her favorite sport. Coach Jen coached Teresa and her team back in 2012. These two women definitely know how to play ball, and the team is grateful for their guidance.

This year’s Lady Eagles Varsity Basketball Team is full of some familiar and a couple of new faces. The 2015-2016 Varsity Captains are juniors Rayven Smothers (point guard) and Savanah Brehm (guard). The other returning players are: junior Emelia Gregor (post), sophomore Catherine Skibinski (post), and sophomore Kaleigh Kaltenthaler (post). These returners know what it is like to play varsity basketball and they understand the responsibility it takes to play with a small but dedicated squad. Some newer faces this year include senior April Duro (guard), sophomore Katie Huggins (post), and freshman Danika Stalcup (guard). The starting lineup may change slightly but will definitely include: Smothers, Brehm, Gregor, Skibinski, and Stalcup.

The Lady Eagles Varsity Basketball Team is working really hard this season and would love support from the community. The girls are fundraising for new jerseys and equipment, if you want to make a donation, the team would be grateful! Any donations should be made out to Julian High School Girls Basketball. Our next home game is after Winter Break on January 21, 2016 at 4pm versus Warner Wildcats; ASB charges $3 for adults--we hope to see you there cheering us on with Lady Eagle Pride.

parents' income and assets (if the student is dependent), the family's household size, and the number of family members (excluding parents) attending postsecondary institutions. The EFC is the sum of: (1) a percentage of net income (remaining income after subtracting allowances for basic living expenses and taxes) and (2) a percentage of net assets (assets remaining after subtracting an asset protection allowance). Different assessment rates and allowances are used for dependent students, independent students without dependents, and independent students with dependents.

After filing a FAFSA, the student receives a Student Aid Report (SAR), or the institution receives an Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR), which notifies the student if he or she is eligible for a Federal Pell Grant

and provides the student's EFC. FSA Handbook <http://ifap. ed.gov/fsahandbook/attachmen ts/1516FSAHbkActiveIndexMast er.pdf> Federal Pell Grants are direct grants awarded through participating institutions to students with financial need who have not received their first bachelor's degree or who are enrolled in certain postbaccalaureate programs that lead to teacher certification or licensure.

Participating institutions either credit the Federal Pell Grant funds to the student's school account, pay the student directly (usually by check) or combine these methods. Students must be paid at least once per term (semester, trimester, or quarter); schools that do not use formally defined terms must pay the student at least twice per academic year.

Commemorative Plate Q: I recently purchased a plate with an image of a ship with "Remember the Maine" across the top. I paid $15 for it at an Atlanta flea market and think I got quite a bargain. I am enclosing a picture. It looks like new.

-- Barbara, Savannah, Georgia A: I looked at the picture you sent me and your statement that it looks like new kept bouncing around in my head. In my opinion, you bought a reproduction. I base this opinion on two things: The piece does, indeed, look like new, and the price you paid was too good to be true. Many commemorative plates are being reproduced by the evil elves in China. For example, in the area where I live the market is being flooded with cobalt Shirley Temple mugs -- all fakes. My advice is do your homework before making a purchase and when a price seems to be too low to be real, alas, it generally is. *** Q: My uncle recently died in the Napa area of California.

He had an incredible vintage wine collection. My sister and I have decided to dispose of the collection, which includes more than 1,000 bottles. Can you help

-- Stephen, Coral Gables, Florida A: The first idea that occurred to me after reading your question was to consider an auction house.

Heritage Auctions in Dallas has liquidated wine collections in the past and might be a good source to contact. The company generated annual sales last year of $900 million and is always accepting quality consignments in more than 40 categories.

Contact is 3500 Maple Dr., Dallas, TX 75219; 877-437-4824. *** Q: I have four swan planters that are marked "Hull." I bought them at a thrift shop for $150 for the set. They seem to be in excellent shape. I am enclosing pictures.

What are your thoughts?

-- Maryanne, Tyler, Texas A: The Hull Pottery Company produced many novelty items depicting fowl, but swans probably became the most widely produced design. The swans came in various sizes. I found your swans in "Warman's Hull Pottery: Identification & Price Guide" by David Doyle and published by Krause Books.

According to Doyle, your planters are worth $10-$25 each. ***

Beat Holiday Boredom Spending time at home can be a nostalgic, cheerful experience.

But between baking pumpkin muffins and holiday shopping, there are bound to be stretches of free time -- especially for the kids. Borrow a few tips from LunchboxDad.com blogger, Beau Coffron, who uses creative holiday boredom busters to keep the kids busy! Like Beau and his family, you can explore apps like Crayola DJ to brighten up a chilly winter day. The kids will love interacting with the projected turnstiles on the touch mat to show off their musical skills.

New Take On Tradition (NAPSA)-It was once a steadfast tradition to cut down a live tree to place in the home for the holidays. However, live Christmas trees and their upkeep-and often, their messcaused many to forgo this tradition and turn to artificial trees to decorate their homes during the holidays. Today, the benefits of a sustainable, safe, clean, artificial tree have caused eight in 10 homes to opt for an artificial tree. While that all sounds like improvement, there has always remained one significant drawback to going faux: Artificial trees simply don't offer the coveted aroma of a real Christmas tree.

A Scent-Sible Solution Now, however, the authentic smell of a fresh-cut pine or spruce is available in the form of a holiday ornament. ScentSicles scented ornaments are available in a variety of scents and can easily be hung from an artificial tree, filling the home with a scent reminiscent of a live tree.

Available in over 27,000 stores nationwide, ScentSicles are made of paper sourced from sustainable resources and infused with 100 percent pure fragrance. They offer a simple, no-mess and no-flame way to make artificial holiday greenery smell lifelike, enhance the scent of a real tree or just add scent as a decoration.

• FISHING REPORT •

Howdy! From Lake Cuyamaca “Dusty Britches” here along with the crew from Cuyamaca Lake. We have had some nice rainbow trout caught here over the last week. Some great trophy trout and some nice “pan size” eelers. On Sunday, December 6th……JOHN WYATT of La Mesa, Ca. reeled in 2 rainbow trout at Lone Pine bouncing “mice tails”(white and pink)….. one was 2 pounds 8 ounces and the other was 12 POUNDS for a stringer weight total with two fish of 14 pounds 8 ounces.

I’m told that John was using light weight gear….4 pound mono for his main line and 2 pound for his leader with a #16 treble hook. Dave Miller of La Mesa, Ca. using the Cuyamaca Sandwich….rainbow power bait and half a night crawler…..got his limit on the dike in a little over an hour. The Minch family had a good outing at Lone Pine with two limits for the day. Several 8 pound “bows” were reported being taken at “Pumphouse Cove” and “Heron Point”. Mt. Lassen did themselves proud on their last plant. We are still seeing channel cat fish coming out of the pond, but no pan fish like crappie or bluegill. Look out! The next trout plant will be December 22nd. 1,100 pounds coming from Mt. Lassen, half of them will be trophy trout… at least 3 to 8 pounds. If it is anything like this last plant with 10 pounders and 12 pounders in the plant, it will be a good

challenge for our anglers. Bobby Morgan is cooking up a storm in the restaurant. Chicken Pot Pie is flying out the pass-through window as fast as he can make it.

For a chef, he has a good humor about him and kind of reminds you of a cross between a young Pete Seeger and Yosemite Sam. Try out the menu if you’re in the area. You won’t be disappointed.

If you visit early enough, you will be treated to a new waitstaff person…..the great Ronalda. Her looks would make a freight train take a dirt road, but is a great early-morning person to talk to and joke with about the events of the day. I took the two labs for a walk in the upper lake basin this morning to sniff butts and explore everything that moved and half that didn’t. I have found that they have become kinder and gentler as they ripen. Some turkeys were no further than a few yards from us, and they didn’t even attempt a chase which, not long ago, it was game on….at least for the first 20 feet. Now, one of them would rather have his stomach scratched than chase anything…. he is my lap dog-porch dog. The other is just dingy.

POST NOTES

For Whom the Bell Tolls -2015

After we pass unless we’re among the rich and famous or the historically significant the only ones that will remember us are our children and maybe the grandkids. After the great grandkids we’re reduced to the obscurity of the family tree. The one statistic that hasn’t changed for mankind is the death rate.

It now stand at one hundred percent. From my reading and research it’s not about to change anytime soon. So in that light let’s take a look back and see who the rich and famous were that departed this world in 2015.

No one is immune. Our list of departed come from the world of stage, screen, TV, sports, music, politics, and science.

There’s a few that had more meaning for me than others but if they made the list they obviously touched someone. As in years past I’ll get the usual comments of “how could you have forgotten him/her. Well it’s either because I missed them or never heard of them so my apologies in advance. If you feel that strongly about it remind that person to us in a letter to the editor.

One of the giants we lost this year was Maureen O’Hara. An actress that would have been great and beautiful in any era. I particularly liked her in the Quiet Man with John Wayne.

Other well known stars of stage and screen and TV included Director Wes Craven, Jayne Meadows, and Leonard Nimoy (Spock). That famous tongue in cheek announcer Gary Owens from Laugh-In and Anne Meara the comedy partner of

Other actors of note that died this year were Robert Loggia, Marty Ingels, Kevin Corcoran, the kid In Old Yeller, Jack Larson, who played Jimmy Olsen in the Superman series, and Dickie Moore of Our Gang.

We lost Yogi Berra this year.

Frank Gifford died in August.

He was an All American football player at USC, and consistent Pro Bowler, All Pro as well as being an NFL MVP. He is in the college and pro Hall of Fame. He went on to a great announcing career.

One of my favorite actors of recent years was Uggi that charming little Jack Russell Terrier that starred in the Artist and Water for Elephants met his end at the age of 13.

Other athletes and coaches of note were Darryl Dawkins, Moses Malone, Flip Saunders, Jerome Kersey, Jerry Tarkanian, Dolph Schayes and Hot Rod Hundley all of basketball fame, left us this year.

Others in the sports world included Charlie O'Connell, roller derby star of the San Francisco Bay Bombers, Mr. Cub, Hall of Fame baseball star Ernie Banks (let’s play two) , wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper and the great young announcer from ESPN, Stuart Scott.

We lost a lot of musicians this year. Some of their names don’t exactly ring a bell but their hits do, like Don Covay, ("Chain of Fools"), Little Jimmy Dickens, of Grand ‘Ole” Opry fame ("May the Bird of Paradise Fly Up Your Nose"), Joe B. Mauldin, the bassist for Buddy Holly’s Crickets, Ben E. King ("Stand by Me"), Jack Ely, (“Louie Louie”), Percy Sledge, (“When a Man Loves a Woman”), Ronnie Bright, of The Cadillacs, The Coasters, The Valentines, Cynthia Robinson one of the founders and trumpeter and vocalist for Sly and the Family Stone, Scott Weiland, Stone Temple Pilots, Gary Richrath guitarist REO Speedwagon, Lynn Anderson (“I Never Promised You a Rose Garden”) and Bob Burns, the drummer of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Others of note that passed were Iconic weatherman George Fishbeck, Mario Cuomo, Governor of New York, Edward Brooke, long-time Senator from Massachusetts, Bernice Madigan, at 115, was world's fiftholdest person, New Orleans Chef and author Paul Prudhomme and Sandy Berger National Security Advisor to Bill Clinton who got caught stealing Al Qaeda related documents from the National Archives, oops.

Jackie Collins author of 32 novels and 500 million in sales and John Nash the mathematician and subject of the movie A Beautiful Mind.

Remember the “Pet Rock”? That little gag gift went on to make its inventor Gary Dahl a millionaire.

George T. Sakato, 94 and Tibor Rubin, 86, Hungarian-born and

Holocaust survivor. Also were Alexander Vraciu, 96, American World War II Navy fighter ace, Navy Cross recipient and Robert Hite 95, World War II Veteran, and member of Doolittle's Raiders who spent 40 months as a POW and 38 of those months in solitary confinement.

So there you have it. Not a complete list by any stretch of the imagination but the highlights of who’s, who. I’ve often referred to who we lost this year but perhaps they’ve been found elsewhere.

Dear EarthTalk: How are environmentalists and environmental groups using crowdfunding to get their projects off the ground?

— Sean Jackson, Baltimore, MD Crowdfunding relies on the collective effort of a large amount of individuals making online contributions to allow a project or venture to happen. ArtistShare, a website that allows fans to fund the creation of new artistic works, was the Internet's first fan-funded crowdfunding platform, launching its initial project in October 2003.

Today, crowdfunding is a bit more crowded, to say the least, and among the most popular sites for this purpose today are GoFundMe, IndieGoGo, Kickstarter and Razoo.

Crowdfunding has grown from a market of $880 million in 2010

to $16 billion in 2014, with 2015 estimated to surpass $34 billion.

A wide variety of both small and large-scale environmental endeavors are now utilizing this revolutionary new kind of fundraising. In November 2015, Indiegogo.com, the largest global crowdfunding platform, allowed the HomeBiogas system to reach their fundraising goal of $100,000 in 24 hours. The HomeBiogas system is a family-sized biogas system that converts any organic waste into clean cooking gas and a high quality liquid fertilizer for the garden. With the system, 2.2 pounds of food waste produces an average of about 200 liters of gas, which generates around one hour of cooking over a high flame.

Also, using the HomeBiogas for one year saves six tons of CO2, the equivalent of your car’s yearly emission. The campaign will be active on IndieGoGo until December 23, 2015, and with the support gained they hope to streamline the products to households by May 2016.

On KickStarter.com, a creative project-focused crowdfunding site where “every project is an opportunity to create the universe and culture you want to see,” over 2,000 people pledged a total of some $280,000 to fund the Little Sun Charge high-performance solar phone charger, developed by artist Olafur Eliasson and engineer Frederik Ottesen.

Backers of the Little Sun, which

offers a full smartphone charge from five hours of sunshine, are projected to receive the product in March 2016. The device is handheld and can be clipped to a backpack to collect sun when walking outdoors.

Smaller scale — but equally impactful — current environmental efforts seeking crowdfunding include: Ashley Hoffman’s Fundraiser for the

Kentucky Association for Environmental Education; the World Parrot Trust USA’s effort to save wild parrots from being stolen from their nests and forced into captivity; the Washington Youth Garden’s living garden classroom that provides handson science learning, inspires environmental stewardship and cultivates healthy food choices in youth and families; the Franklin Land Trust’s work with Western Massachusetts landowners to conserve farms, woodlands and scenic vistas; and the Nature Conservancy’s innovative approach to turn farmland into temporary habitat for millions of migrating birds. All of these campaigns are posted on Razoo. com, which has helped non-profit organizations raise $450 million since 2006. Any registered nonprofit can claim its Razoo page and start raising money online immediately through the site’s customizable fundraising portal.

While crowdfunding to support environmental campaigns and projects may still be in its infancy, no doubt more and more nonprofit leaders and activists will embrace it as a way to expand their constituencies and pay for operations in the most democratic way possible.

Religion In The News Nun Moves Closer To Sainthood An Italian-born nun who challenged Billy the Kid, calmed angry mobs and helped open New Mexico territory hospitals and schools is set to move up the path toward possible sainthood.

The Archdiocese of Santa Fe is scheduled to close its inquiry on why Sister Blandina Segale should become a saint. The inquiry panel will then forward its findings to the Vatican.

Sister Segale, a nun with the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati and an advocate for Hispanics and Native Americans, founded schools in New Mexico and St. Joseph Hospital.

Her encounters with Old West outlaws became the subject of an episode of the CBS series "Death Valley Days," titled "The Fastest Nun in the West."

She worked as an educator and social worker in Ohio, Colorado

Should Christians celebrate Christmas?

I get a question like this every year.

There is no Scriptural precedent for celebrating Christmas. In fact, there isn’t a prescribed Holy Day (Holiday) Christ followers are required to observe. As a matter of historical record, Christmas was not observed as a holiday until well after the biblical era—in the mid-fifth century.

I honestly believe it is not a question of right or wrong, but falls under Christian liberty. Here is what Paul told the Roman Christ followers about the observance of special days: “One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks” [Romans 14:5-6].

Although our society has muddied the message of Christmas through consumerism, myths and vain traditions, we should not let it distract us from appreciating the real meaning of Christmas. I encourage you to take full advantage of every opportunity to remember Christ, worship Christ and faithfully witness of Christ.

The Julian News 13

California Commentary

New Taxes Are Not Necessary There is an old expression, “carrying coals to Newcastle,” to describe a useless activity or fool’s errand. Sort of like shipping pineapples to Hawaii or, bringing it closer to home, sending more tax dollars to Sacramento.

The truth is, Sacramento is awash in cash. The Legislature’s budget analyst estimates that this fiscal year will end with $3 billion more than anticipated and, by 2017, state reserves may even top $11 billion.

For the political ruling class, this is an embarrassment. Last summer, the Governor called a special session of the Legislature in an attempt to secure legislative approval of a new health care tax on managed care organizations (MCOs) because the current tax is about to expire. He also called another special session to deal with transportation funding. In both cases, Republicans in the Legislature are making trouble for those backing new taxes by pointing to the obvious: The state already has plenty of money.

This embarrassment of riches is also bad for the morale of special interests looking to increase taxes via ballot measures. Public sector unions are pushing for an extension in the “temporary” tax increase approved by voters in 2012.

But they have yet to show a united front and are fighting over who will get the money. Whether the proceeds go to education, as favored by the state’s most powerful special interest, the California Teachers Association, or to the health care industry, as is supported by other union and hospital interests, has yet to be decided.

Health care interests may also pursue a new tobacco tax of $2 a pack. Since smokers and tobacco companies are only slightly more popular than ISIS, pundits believe – perhaps naively – that this initiative will pass. (They’ve been wrong before as tobacco taxes are highly regressive). Or perhaps the “evil” oil companies

by Jon Coupal will be the target in a state where motorists already pay 75 cents a gallon more than the national average. Good luck with that.

Campaigns for initiatives to impose new or higher taxes tend to use happy talk to focus on the benefits to the needy or the general population and ignore the actual goal. For example, Proposition 30, the sales and income tax increase, was sold as a boon to education when, in reality, much of the revenue is needed to keep the teachers’ pension system solvent.

For any tax increases being pushed by special interests, voters should keep in mind that actual beneficiaries tend to be the providers of services – think pay and benefits — not the recipients.

This brings us to another potential initiative with the sympathetic sounding title of “Lifting Children and Families Out of Poverty Act.” The measure would place a property tax surcharge on higher value homes and property.

If this proposal actually reaches the ballot, it will, no doubt be marketed as a tax on the well-off so they can pay their “fair share” to help needy children. Backers of this tax will not mention that, as usual, those receiving the majority of benefits are likely to be the providers of services, not those in poverty. And don’t expect voters to be told about California’s already generous entitlement programs or, even with record spending, the hefty state surplus.

The fact that this measure would be the first step in destroying Proposition 13 protections for all property owners, including those of modest means, will be glossed over as initiative promoters use the less fortunate as human shields to justify themselves.

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.

• Only one state has a one-syllable name: Maine.

• A married couple in Batavia, New York, had such a turbulent marriage that the wife had a restraining order issued to keep her husband away from her. After the divorce, though, they worked things out and planned a second wedding. At the reception, the second-time groom got into an argument with one of the guests, and the police were called. The argument didn't end up being the real problem; the officers on the scene arrested the groom on charges of criminal contempt. It seems the original restraining order was still in effect -- it was illegal for him to be near his bride on their wedding day.

• Those who study such things say that dead people can get goosebumps.

• Arguably, the best-known battle of the U.S. Civil War occurred in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, in the summer of 1863. This battle saw the most casualties of any during the war, and it is considered by many historians to be a turning point.

Many don't realize the sheer volume of gunfire that occurred there, though; so many bullets were fired during the three-day battle -- and so many went astray -- that trees near the battlefield later died from lead poisoning.

one for Crispy Roasted Chicken.

It’s easy and delicious, and provides a healthy meal for diabetics and those who dine with them during the holidays and every day!

Crispy Roasted Chicken This is one of my family’s favorite chicken dishes. I usually prepare it for Sunday dinner after church and for holiday celebrations. Sprinkling the skin with baking powder helps draw out the moisture, so the skin gets crackling crisp in the oven.

1 (5 1/2 to 6 pounds) or 5 pounds breast, drumsticks and thigh parts 1/2 tablespoon baking powder 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 tablespoons garlic powder 2 tablespoons poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper 1 small onion, halved 1 lemon, halved 8 sprigs rosemary 4 cloves garlic cloves, smashed 2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme Cooking oil spray 1. Remove the neck and giblets and any pieces of fat inside of the bird. Rinse the bird with cold water inside and out. Remove any excess fat and leftover pin feathers. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the chicken skin (breast side only) with the baking powder. Place the chicken on a roasting rack in a large baking pan and let it air-dry in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Pat dry with more paper towels.

2. Spray a large baking pan with cooking oil spray. Rub the olive oil all over the chicken.

Turn the chicken breast side up, twist the wing tips and tuck them behind the bird. Sprinkle chicken inside and out with the garlic powder, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Rub the spices inside and out of the bird, or if using parts, on both sides. Stuff the cavity with the onion, lemon, rosemary, garlic and thyme, or place aromatics under the chicken parts 3. Heat oven to 425 F. Place the chicken in the upper half of the oven and cook, uncovered, for 15 minutes to brown and crisp the skin. Lower the oven temperature to 350 F. Spray the chicken with the cooking oil spray. Roast the chicken for an additional 35 to 40 minutes, or until juices run clear when a thigh is pierced with a knife, or an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thigh and not touching bone registers 165 F. 4. Remove chicken from oven and allow to rest, uncovered, for at least 10 minutes before carving. Do not cover the meat, because it will steam and soften the crispy skin. Makes 10 servings. *** Angela Shelf Medearis is an award-winning children’s author, culinary historian and the author of seven cookbooks.

continued from page 3 wicking, and it also expands the fabric's absorbency area, so more evaporation can take place.

Simply stated, as the skin temperature increases and perspiration occurs, the fabric fibers, even cotton, respond by allowing evaporation to help keep the body cool and wicking to help keep it dry.

Comfort that Fits When you're comfortable, you're better prepared to handle whatever life throws your way. Stay cool when things get sticky with these tips from the experts at Hanes: * Find clothes that let you feel confident. From the style to the fit, if you're not comfortable, it will show. Look for attire that lets you downplay any sign you're not on top of your game, such as moisturewicking garments that keep stickiness and sweat at bay. * Take control of your temperature by wearing layers. If things heat up, you can discard a layer to quickly adjust your personal comfort. * Buy the right size. Clothing that doesn't fit properly tends to cling, making you more prone to sweat and discomfort. * To look good, you need to feel good. Avoid rough, scratchy materials that will irritate your skin and opt instead for soft cotton blends.

Winter Driving continued from page 5

conventional wisdom, this creates the hazardous condition of having one axle that has grip while the other does not, resulting in an increased chance of a spinout.

Will winter tires lower my gas mileage?

Gas mileage typically dips in the winter due to several factors.

While winter tires may contribute, the effect is minimal; a decrease in gas mileage often has more to do with winter gas, which has special additives that affect engine performance. Roof racks and ski boxes add aerodynamic drag; these can also affect gas mileage.

Can I drive my winter tires all year round?

Using winter tires year round is not recommended. Modern winter tires may wear unnecessarily quickly, particularly on coarse spring roads and on hotter summer roads. The wear may be uneven as well. Many tire dealers offer storage for off-season tires, making seasonal tire changing easy for drivers.

When should I put on my winter tires and when should I take them off?

In the fall, once temperatures are consistently at 45¡ or below, any driver will benefit from the grip of winter tires. It may make

sense to put them on a bit early to avoid the tire changeover rush that happens once the first snowfall hits. At the end of the season, it's best to remove winter tires once temperatures are consistently over 45¡.

I have four-wheel drive or allwheel drive so I don't need winter tires, right?

Acceleration with original equipment tires in winter conditions is relatively easy to achieve with AWD and 4WD. The problem comes when there is a need to steer or stop in a hurry and the tires do not grip. This is why you see so many SUVs and 4X4s off the road in the early season storms. Allwheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles benefit from winter tires just as much as front-wheel-drive vehicles do.

How will winter tires affect my vehicle's handling and braking?

In general, dry handling and braking will be affected only slightly when using winter tires but the gains in winter weather safety are significant. The biggest change in dry handling and braking a driver could see would be a move from a UHP (ultrahigh performance) summer tire to a studded winter tire.

aspect this week. This can serve as a counterweight to the mounting effects of the season's growing commercialization.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Taking on that recent challenge impressed a lot of important decision-makers.

Meanwhile, proceed with your holiday plans, and don't forget to include you-know-who in them.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Disagreeing with an opinion you can't accept could be dicey, and your motives might be questioned. Best to wait to mount a challenge until you have support for your position.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Getting involved in helping others in this increasingly hectic period not only makes the generous Aquarian feel good, but you could also gain a more substantive benefit from your actions.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The Piscean way of thinking clearly and objectively helps you resolve a complex situation without creating any ill will. Don't be surprised if your counsel is requested on another matter.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of persuading people to look at the positive possibilities that make up any choices they might face.

THIS STATEMENT WAS FILED WITH THE COURT CLERK OF THE SUPERIOR COURT ON November 19, 2015.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) At this time you might want to resist that otherwise admirable Aries penchant for getting to the heart of a matter quickly. Keep in mind that a delicate situation calls for patience.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your aspects favor more diplomacy and fewer direct confrontations when dealing with a relationship problem.

Avoiding hurt feelings can help in your search for the truth.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Positive aspects are strong this week. Although you might still have to deal with some problems caused by a recent period of turmoil, you are making progress, and that's what counts.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A family matter could benefit from your counsel. But don't come into it unless invited, and don't stay if you feel uneasy. Just remember to reassure one and all that you'll be there for them.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) As the truth about an ongoing situation emerges, you could find that you were right to defer judgment before you had all the facts. Now would be a good time to move on to other matters.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Your plans to take control of a personal situation because you feel you are best qualified could create resentment. Best to hear what everyone else involved in the matter has to say about it.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Uncovering some surprising background facts about that ongoing personal matter could make you reconsider the extent of your involvement. A neutral family member offers advice.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Religious or spiritual themes start to dominate your
