Eagles Rack Up The Points Wallop Dragons
San Pasqual Academy 0 0 0 6 6 Julian 20 30 6 6 62 The out manned San Pasqual team provided little resistance for the Julian boys on Friday afternoon. The Eagles scored early and often putting 50 points on the board by half time. What that really meant was a faster second half, as by rule the clock would run without stopping until the end of the game. The team finishes the season at home Friday at 2 o’clock against the currently winless Ocean View Academy.

Do you own a property with a well in San Diego County? Is it dry due to our prolonged statewide drought? Help is available. A new emergency water distribution program is offering assistance to residents without access to running water for drinking and sanitation due to a dry well. Residents who qualify can receive low-interest loans to replace individual water well systems and install temporary water tanks. The water assistance is not for landscaping or agricultural needs. The program was created as a result of an executive order by California Governor Jerry Brown. Local assistance is available through the County of San Diego and the Rural Community Assistance Corporation. For more information, visit the County Office of Emergency Services’ emergency water program webpage, email the department at readysd@ sdcounty.ca.gov or call 858-5653490. Eligibility requirements include but are not limited to: For a low-interest loan, applicants must: Own and occupy the property or plan to purchase the property with the dry well Earn an annual gross household income of $62,883 or less For the emergency water distribution program, applicants must: - Own a property with a well that has gone dry due to drought - Earn a total gross monthly household income less than or equal to 200 percent of the federal poverty level (here’s a breakdown of those income levels) - Own and live in a primary residence on the property with the well - Own and live in a legal dwelling on a legal parcel - Have plans for a long-term water supply solution Loans are available to help people with dry wells due to the drought.
Hunter began the session by noting that he had been coming up to Julian all his life and recalled the many times he and his father had hunted deer and quail in the area. He then described the differences among Federal, State and County areas of jurisdiction. Hunter’s actions are—and should be—confined to what the Federal Government does and he isn’t able to become involved in local matters. He can and will, however, assist constituents on problems with Veteran’s Affairs, Social Security and Immigration issues. Reflecting his committee memberships, Hunter’s particular interests are transportation, the Armed Services, particularly in regard to sea power and emerging threats, and border security. Hunter is also involved with education as the Chair of the K-12 Education Committee. Mike Menghini asked about better signage for Julian on I-8 and Hunter said he would look into that. In response to a question about education and assistance to schools, especially small schools, Hunter said that Federal assistance was very formulaic and indicated there was little wiggle room. He added that the most important factor in a child’s education was parental involvement. In response to another question he noted that marijuana constitutes a small fraction of the drugs smuggled in from Mexico because of its bulky size but thought that legalizing marijuana for recreational use in California might mean the cartels and others stopped using federal lands to grow it illegally; it was his opinion that the drug would become legal at the Federal level before long and that the problem of driving under the influence—which was discussed at some length—would probably be solved when private business found an easy way to measure how much marijuana had been consumed by a driver. Hunter also outlined his positions opposing a federal minimum wage and overtime pay and briefly discussed a number of other issues.
