The impact of the October “Public Safety Power Outages” was felt most acutely on the schools in Julian. Julian Union School District Superintendent took action and got results. Dr. Heflen took to the media, and got results.

After loosing multiple days of school that will have to be made up, both districts needed a solution - SDG&E has come up with one. Add the districts, the library and the Post Office plus CalFIRE and the County maintenance yard to the town generator underground system.

This will not only allow the schools to function the next time we have one of these pro-active fire prevention events. It will also provide the community with access to the library and post office.

As part of its ongoing efforts to reduce wildfire risk and the impact of Public Safety Power Shutoffs during extreme weather conditions, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) will undertake a project to underground power lines in Julian, where several key community facilities are located. Once completed, the undergrounding work will enable the community facilities, including schools, a library and a CAL FIRE station to remain powered during safety power shutoffs.

Currently, the commercial heart of downtown Julian is served by underground power lines. As a result, SDG&E is able to power Main Street businesses with a portable generator during Public Safety Power Shutoffs. However, the existing undergrounding infrastructure does not extend to key community facilities that are located just outside of the commercial core.

The Julian Power Line Undergrounding Project will extend the underground infrastructure to the east along Banner Road (State Route 78) and Cape Horn Avenue. Critical infrastructure that will benefit from the project include the United States Postal Service facility in Julian, Julian Branch Library, Julian Union High School, Julian Charter School, Julian Elementary School and the CAL FIRE Julian Fire Station. Other critical facilities that will also benefit include a County of San continued on page 13

Health and Personal Services EDITORIAL FOR JULIAN NEWS From a very concerned citizen to all who care about the future of Julian students!

Thursday, December 6th finally arrived and we entered the Julian High School auditorium with much anticipation. One of our neighbor's granddaughters invited a number of us to the Julian High School play.

The play was somewhat entertaining, finding applause often.

The "Princess," in a very pretty costume, was very unhappy as she wanted a mate to fulfill her desires. As the play progressed, thoughts ran through our minds wondering where this was going. No man was suitable for the Princess and after a number of introductions, she met her heart's desire, A GIRL! At the end of the play, a large curtain/banner was held in front of the couple (two girls) to hide their supposed kisses and it was announced, "Sorry folks, this is PG-13!"

Needless to say, we were astonished and shocked about this subject matter! Just because a drama coach deems this to be the accepted practice of the day, believe me, in our world it isn't. Never in a hundred years would we have thought we would be subjected to the LGBT agenda at a Julian High School drama performance. The saddest fact is the Julian School District is teaching your children that this lifestyle is totally accepted by all. It isn't so!

In order to give the public a choice, perhaps the tickets needed an additional line under the title stating, A Play About Two Girls Who Fell in Love or A Story About Two Lesbians.

On a happier note, for those who deny the creator's existence, just know that Jesus loves you so much that He is not willing that any should perish but have everlasting life, John 3:16. God promises forgiveness if we ask. He also states in John 14:15, "If you love me, keep my commands!" And that comes with the promise of the Holy Spirit to guide us along the way.

Wishing you all a blessed and joyful Christmas celebration!

Remember, our calendar is co ted by Christ's birthdays! He is for real and so was the Cross!

Local Meth Deaths Set Record

Michele Harvey Greg Courson

General Dentistry & Orthodontics

Member California News Publishers Association

A total of 483 San Diegans died from meth last year, a record number for the region.

That’s the key finding of the San Diego County Methamphetamine Strike Force’s latest report, which was released today at the Medical Examiner’s Office.

The figure for 2018 is 106 more deaths than the number reported in 2016 when a then-record 377 meth fatalities were reported.

“Meth abuse is not a new problem, but these latest figures from the Meth Strike Force Report Card are deeply disturbing and should raise alarm among all of us,” said Chairwoman Dianne Jacob, County Board of Supervisors. “These tragic deaths are unnecessary and avoidable.”

The 2019 report card shows the devastating impact of methamphetamine on human life and public safety in our region, according to San Diego County District Attorney Summer Stephan, a tri-chair of the Methamphetamine Strike Force.

“The report utilizes data to show the overdose deaths related to methamphetamine use and the connection between this drug and crime,” Stephan said. “We will continue to use this valuable data working with our law enforcement and community partners to combat this epidemic through prosecution of meth dealers who prey on the addicted along with strengthening treatment options to help keep people out of the criminal justice system, and enhancing public awareness to the dangers of methamphetamine.”

According the Medical Examiner’s Office, the people most impacted are those between 45 and 64 years of age, a group that in 2018 represented 247 deaths. People in this age bracket tend to have had chronic cardiovascular disease, which itself could have resulted from long-time methamphetamine abuse.

“Keep in mind, these data represent only deaths examined by the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office,” said Dr. Steve Campman, chief deputy medical examiner.

Of the more than 22,000 deaths each year in San Diego County, only about 3,000 of them require an investigation from the Medical Examiner’s Office, so there might be additional people dying because of methamphetamine abuse that the ME’s Office doesn’t see. continued on page 12

NOTICE TO READERS

On January 1, 2020 the Julian News will raise the single issue price to $1.00. The reason for this increase is multi facited. The cost of printing the paper has now risen above the single issue price thanks to tarriffs on the paper mills and general economic practices. The cost of postage has also risen, so subscriptions will also be impacted, seeing an increase to $70 per year. Current subscrbers will still receive their weekly editions until their renewal date when they will see the increase.

Historical Society Getting A Facelift

The Old Witch Creek School home to the Julian Historical Society will be getting some much need maintenance on the exterior and a new coat of paint .

A family gathering during the holidays is an ideal time to record your family's stories.

During the holiday season as families gather for celebrations, children experience a heightened curiosity about their families.

Parents can harness this curiosity by enlisting their children’s help in creating an archive of family stories.

After all, knowing your family tree is one thing, but fleshing it out with real-life stories makes it all the more interesting. It’s a way to show your child that history is made up of fascinating memories and anecdotes. Add to that the compelling reason that if your don’t gather your stories now, they could be lost forever.

Recording family stories is relatively easy to do and you’ll always be glad that you did it. Children can assist with all aspects of the project.

In fact, many middle- and high-schoolers will gladly tackle the whole thing by themselves.

Interviewing Tips Make a list of questions. Try to get everything in one interview, as the first interview is often the best, and you never know when you’ll be able to get your interviewee back again.

In addition to asking “who, what, where and when” questions, be sure to ask some open-ended questions.

For example, you might ask: What do you know about your ancestry that you would like to preserve for future generations?

Who among these ancestors did you know personally and what were they like?

Where was your childhood home? Is it still there? Has the neighborhood changed?

What was your favorite job? Least favorite?

Where did you travel? What places were the most interesting to you?

Who were the most influential people in you life? Describe what they did that influenced you.

Was there a family tradition that you loved that isn’t practiced anymore?

Was there an epidemic or health scare when you were younger that made a lasting impression upon you? A natural disaster?

What were some of your mother’s (and father’s) good characteristics?

What is your favorite memory of your father (and mother)?

How do you remember your mother and father looking?

Tell a story about your parents.

What was your favorite food, game or toy?

Who was your best friend?

What did you do on Saturday afternoons?

What do you remember about school?

Good interviewers refrain from interrupting. Ask the question and then let the person respond without your interjections or comments.

Sometimes the temptation to jump in and start a conversation is great, but keep in mind that this is a recording of someone’s memories, not a family free-forall. Never stop the interviewee’s remembering. Memory is fragile and a flow of thoughts can lead someone to uncover something that they haven’t thought of in years.

The Set-up If at all possible be sure to let your subjects know in advance that you’d like to interview them.

It’s only polite! Some people won’t need advance notice and will gladly participate on a moment’s notice, but others may need time to mentally prepare.

You can help prime the pump by having a few old photographs on hand to help bring back the memories.

Place the microphone near the interviewee. Test the recording levels first by recording a snippet of conversation and then playing it back.

Some people become nervous at the sight of a microphone. If you find this to be the case, place the microphone somewhere where it is inconspicuous, but close enough to get a good continued on page 13

New Poll Shows Parents (and Teachers) Want More From Public Education (NAPS)—Americans’ satisfaction with K–12 education reached a 15-year high this year, according to a Gallup poll, but the majority of people still think it’s on the wrong track. The 2019 Schooling in America Survey by EdChoice and Braun Research digs deeper to find out why that might be.

It found most parents say they are satisfied with their kids’ current schools: • 79% of parents are satisfied with a private school • 77% of parents are satisfied with a public charter school • 76% of parents are satisfied with home schooling • 67% of parents are satisfied with a public district school.

Although 82% of students today attend public district schools, 69% continued on page 13

Trains has played hundreds of local and national shows over the years and has enjoyed a recorded output of seven albums.

Additionally, Andy cofounded the non-profit “We Amplify Voices,” which writes songs with middle school students. Trains Across the Sea is currently recording their eighth album.

• On Dec. 16, 1773, in Boston Harbor, a group of Massachusetts colonists disguised as Mohawk Indians board three British tea ships and dump 342 chests of tea into the harbor.

Childhood Memories

by Kiki Skagen Munshi

The Fruit Of Our Labor It’s been a great year for fruit, as we’ve noted before, and appropriate advantage has been taken of the bounty. Well, almost appropriate.

Or, to be honest, we got really tired of baking and putting up along about October.

This is not to complain. Overall, things went well through the summer and into the fall. We ate and picked. We made Greengage jam, peach tart and apple cake not to mention several kinds of pie before we ran out of steam. The steam left along about the quinces, leaving us with jelly but not the quince pie from the new recipe.

Presumably it would still be possible to make quince pie as there are still enough quinces but Christmas cookies prevail and we haven’t found a recipe for quince Christmas cookies. We haven’t looked. We haven’t tried to make one up.

O sloth, O shame!

Where we really fail, as we do each year, is with the pears. Pear trees, as you probably know, grow all by themselves, all over. The pears aren’t always very good but the trees try hard. The tree at the corner of the house is a prime example and this year it was loaded.

Unlike the great old pear tree outside the fence, this one can’t be accessed by the horses and deer and turkeys are a bit shy about coming right up to the building (until they get really hungry) so there is an amazing lot of fruit just…lying on the ground. Hundreds of pears.

Many hundreds of pears. Perhaps thousands…

Why don’t you…put them up…make pear sour cream pie…do pear preserves…look, here’s a recipe… This is the kind of help (look, here is some MORE work you could do) that leads to murder and mayhem.

We offer such helpful souls all the pears they want but somehow few jump at the chance. One year our local beer maker gathered these pears and made pear beer. We thought it tasted pretty awful, but we’re not adept beer taste testers. On the other hand, he hasn’t been back and the pear tree by the Julian Beer Company hasn’t been picked/pears haven’t been gathered, either. Draw your own conclusions.

It’s sad comfort to realize that fruit trees tend to be one year on and one year off. Next year we’ll probably be scraping this year’s crumbs from the bottom of the freezers.

Huell Howser’s “great lost episode” To Be Shown At The Library A free screening of the “great lost episode” of Huell Howser’s acclaimed California’s Gold TV series will be shown at the Julian Library on Tuesday, January 21 at 6:00 p.m., followed by a Q&A with producer/director John McDonald (“The Ghost Mountain Experiment”).

Back in 2010, the late, great television personality Huell Howser telephoned filmmaker John McDonald and made an unprecedented request. He had seen McDonald’s documentary The Ghost Mountain Experiment, a story about a family who lived off the grid for 17 years in San Diego County’s Anza-Borrego Desert, and wanted to include it in his California’s Gold series. “He just called me out of the blue,” McDonald said. “He told me that he loved my doc, would like to interview me for his show and include the film in an episode of the TV series.” Huell found the story of the South family to be a quintessential California story, but the episode was never broadcast when California’s Gold became the victim of restructuring within PBS and its famous host decided to retire. Not long before his untimely death, Howser gave his unedited video master of the episode to McDonald in a kind gesture of appreciation.

The Ghost Mountain Experiment tells the true story of the “original hippie family.” Obsessed with the dream of living a simple back-tonature lifestyle, the eccentric artist, environmentalist and author Marshal South flees civilization in 1930 with his wife Tanya. For nearly two decades, they raise a family on a remote, waterless mountaintop, but isolation and betrayal take their toll and ultimately destroy a desert paradise and a marriage.

McDonald, an Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker, first became fascinated with Marshal South in 1981 while visiting the crumbling Ghost Mountain homestead on a camping trip with his wife Lydia, who would go on to write the film’s script. In 2004, after meeting San Diego author Diana Lindsay (“The Ghost Mountain Chronicles”), McDonald was inspired to document South’s story. McDonald says, “We could not have made this the film without Diana’s writing and research as well as her participation in the production.” The film features archived family photos, reenactments, interviews with two of the South children, local historians and South’s own writings.

Shot over a 15-month period, cinematographer Stuart Asbjornsen’s footage brings Ghost Mountain’s history to life with breathtaking imagery of the desert throughout the seasons.

Recently I’ve been thinking a lot about my childhood. Though my father went to fight in the Korean War and died two weeks before I turned two, I was fortunate enough to have a great, loving mother. My Mom did her best to raise three of us on her own, even when we were all teenagers at the same time.

My sister recently posted an article on facebook about the disappearance of family gatherings. My family had huge gatherings when I was a child and a teen. My Mom’s parents hosted summer gatherings where everyone brought their specialty to eat. We didn’t barbecue there, but we had plenty of food. I remember cousin Kenneth’s wife Mildred made chili with tomatoes in it. I didn’t like that idea back then because it wasn’t familiar to me, however that’s how I make chili these days because we always seem to have lots of tomatoes and I think Mildred grew her own tomatoes.

We probably ate fried chicken at those gatherings. We had fruit salad, potato salad, corn on the cob and pie. We had plenty of pies.

Every woman in my extended family baked homemade pies. I’m sure we had a large variety of food because my family was full of great Midwest style cooks. My Mom’s family came from Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin farm stock where they grew their own food. They all made yummy food.

On Christmas we all gathered at my Uncle Carlton’s and Aunt Mickie’s for dinner. One year the family had grown so much that they added a large dining room and a much larger kitchen to their home to accommodate all of the family who came for dinner. When that wasn’t quite large enough they made a “T” at the head of the table. Grandma and Grandpa sat at the “T” along with elderly relatives. I always sat at the other end of the table so no really dignified relatives could watch and correct me. In later years I sat at the children’s table with my children. My cousin Marjie joined me there because we thought it was more fun than the formal table. Back in those years from the 1950s through most of the 1970s we usually had thirty people at Christmas dinner. The conversations before and after dinner were my favorite parts of the day. These days the younger members of the family have settled all over this country.

When I was nine or ten, Grandma’s sister Hazel and her husband Chauncey joined us for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. I was mesmerized by Chauncey’s way of talking and told him that he should be a teacher. He told me that he actually was a professor. Years later I found out that after the end of WWll he was sent to West Germany to set up an education system. A teacher indeed!

After Dad died, Mom began dating a man Named Stew. They were together for probably ten years. Stew worked at Ryan Aeronautics and often got laid off, so Mom said he changed our diapers more often than she did. I remember Stew as a gentle man who sometimes made us breakfast and lunch. At breakfast time, he would cook soft boiled eggs for us children and set them in egg cups. He made toast and cut the slices into thirds. After taking the tops off of the eggs, we could dip the toast in and eat the toast with the yolk coating it. I still make soft boiled eggs and toast the same way and when I fry eggs I cook them over medium so I can dip toast into them.

Stew took us to the local municipal pool in La Mesa and dressed in his bathing suit, the poor man looked white as a ghost except for his arms, neck and face which were always tanned because he did so much outdoor work for Mom while wearing a t-shirt. I don’t think it ever bothered him.

Stew did lots of work for us including building a fire ring. He dug a round pit, lined it vertically with clay drainage pipes, filled the pipes with gravel and we had ourselves a fire pit that we enjoyed for many years. He also built a rock patio for us around the fire ring.

The year that we moved from San Diego to La Mesa, Mom put up a lot of boysenberries and she made apricot pies. She froze the boysenberries with sugar and forgot to put the sugar in the pies. We didn’t mind. Apricot pies without sugar go very well with ice cream, so naturally we ate them that way. I found a package of those frozen boysenberries ten years later. Once thawed, they tasted wonderful When I was a child, Mom occasionally baked chocolate cakes and she made chocolate icing to spread on them. After she poured the cake batter into the baking pans, she let us kids lick the bowl and the spoon clean. For me, that was heaven on earth. On top of that, once she frosted the cake, we were given spoons to clean out the frosting bowl. For me, at seven or eight years old, that was pure ecstasy.

I can’t write down some of the things we did as children because it could give my children and grandchildren ideas to do things that are so dangerous that knowing what they are attempting would scare the daylights out of me.

Though I have a few childhood memories that I would like to forget, I have plenty of good childhood memories and I wish all children could say the same.

Happy Holidays!

These are my thoughts.

How to Declutter Your Child’s Room to Make Way for Play (StatePoint) While all the gear, clothes and toys your kids possess are signs of a joyful childhood, keeping it all organized is essential for health, safety and even fun.

“Too many toy choices that are unorganized can make it difficult to find a toy to play with at all,” says Keri Wilmot, pediatric occupational therapist and an expert contributor to TheGeniusofPlay. org. “What’s more, the chaos can pose various safety hazards.”

Organization is more conducive to playtime, which is why Wilmot and The Genius of Play, an initiative whose mission is to raise awareness about the importance of play and help parents make it a critical part of raising kids, are offering eight tips to clean up the inevitable clutter: • Provide Bins: Use bins to help kids organize toys, art supplies and games, keeping size in mind -- the bigger the bin, the harder it is to locate specific toys or objects. While clear bins are great for closets by making it easy for kids to identify their contents, color-coded or decorative bins are more visually appealing options for the playroom.

• Make Smart Furniture Choices: Shelving lets children see what’s available to play with, however toys that require continued on page 10

Lighting Up The Holidays For Children In The Hospital (NAPSI)—The holidays may be the most wonderful time of the year, but the reality is, many children won’t be able to enjoy time with family at home. Instead of shopping for gifts and trimming the tree, countless children will be in the hospital, fighting to get stronger.

Missing family traditions. Missing holiday events. Missing waking up to see that Santa has visited.

However, thanks to dedicated doctors, nurses, child life specialists and more at pediatric hospitals across the country, there’s still a bit of holiday magic to help brighten the days of patients and their families.

One Child’s Journey After two rounds of chemotherapy and more than 130 days in the hospital, there’s a lot 12-year-old Meg doesn’t like about the hospital.

But there are also a lot of things that help make her fight easier.

Meg’s journey began on vacation this past summer when her parents noticed bruises and red pin holes covering her legs. Concerned, they brought Meg to Children’s National Hospital, the premier pediatric hospital in nearby Washington, D.C., where the doctors diagnosed her with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. After months of aggressive treatment, Meg will continue her care through the holidays this year.

“There were not words to describe the feeling when you learn you have cancer. You go from complete childhood freedom to living in a hospital room,” says Meg. “After receiving my diagnosis, I started learning about my treatment and was crushed to learn I was probably going to be in the hospital for treatment through all my favorite holidays.”

One of the most challenging parts of any hospital stay is finding ways for kids like Meg to still be kids. It’s especially difficult during the holiday season when the last place they want to be is in a hospital bed.

Pediatric hospitals establish programs such as art and music therapy, play time with therapy dogs, and access to video games and teen lounges that help make the hospital feel more like home.

Unfortunately, these efforts aren’t covered by insurance, and Children’s National relies on the support of donors to fund programs like these that help treat the whole child and help them grow up stronger.

For Meg, art therapy is particularly impactful. Even on her roughest days of intense treatment, art reminds her of home. It gives her something to look forward to and a sense of self and the ability to express how she’s feeling, while also providing opportunities to spend time with visiting friends. Art time is a way Meg can bond with her sister Ashlee, who visits often. Meg also enjoys playing soccer in the Healing Garden at Children’s National, goofing around with therapy dogs and getting massages each Wednesday.

“It is hard to not have my freedom, but I could not imagine my stay here without having these types of programs. They allow me to focus on something else and not just sit in a room all day thinking about my diagnosis,” says Meg. Lighting Up the Holidays To ensure children like Meg have what they need to grow up stronger and let brave children and their families know they’re not fighting alone, Children’s National Hospital Foundation recently launched its annual Light Up Dr. Bear holiday campaign. Every time someone makes a gift to Children’s National, more than 300 light-up bears shine simultaneously in the hospital, at outpatient centers and at locations across the Washington, D.C. metropolitan region.

I love a hosting parties, but I find the best parties are the ones where everyone brings a great story and their favorite recipe to share. A cookie Christmas party

checks all those boxes, and it’s an inexpensive way to entertain.

The first cookie exchange party started more than 70 years ago.

It was usually a social event for women and extremely popular with women’s clubs and church groups.

Each person baked one or two dozen of their favorite cookies and exchanged one with each person in attendance. The party also is a wonderful way to collect the personal stories behind the cookies.

Sharing stories also acts as an icebreaker and a way for guests to

get to know each other. * Set a beautiful table and arrange all the cookies as the guests arrive.

You can place the plates of cookies at different heights using a few books covered by a tablecloth, or by using cake pedestals. * If the cookies or candies have been frozen, label them “Previously Frozen.” This will prevent the recipients from freezing the items again, which may alter the flavor and texture of the cookie. * Arrange the furniture and the serving tables so that your guests can move easily around the room and the serving tables. * Provide small cups, mugs, plates and napkins so that your guests can serve themselves. * Eating sweets induces thirst!

Have self-serve pitchers of ice and sparkling water on hand, along with coffee, cider, hot chocolate, juices or sodas.

Here are two recipes -- one for a cool and refreshing Christmas Fizz, and another for a warm and flavorful Tres Leches Hot Chocolate With Coconut Milk. Both recipes go perfectly with cookies! Enjoy, and Merry Christmas!

Four-Month Exhibit By Julian Arts Guild Opens In The Library Community Room A new exhibition of nine local artists opened December 13 and runs through April 30, 2020, in the community room at the Julian Public Library, 1850 Highway 78 in Julian, CA. This first exhibition's theme is "Winter Scenes," which features nine local artists' original work and are available for sale.

Prices for each piece, a short bio about each artist with contact information and website addresses to view more works by them are located in a notebook in the room. At the end of this show, another group of artists' paintings and works will replace the existing exhibit and hang for another four months in a continuing, rotating year-round exhibition of 18 to 20 original works.

The public is invited to view the free exhibition at the library, which is open Tuesday through Saturday (hours are Tuesday 9-8, Wednesday and Thursday 9-6, Friday and Saturday 9-5).

Other events may periodically occur in the Community Room, so check at the library counter to make sure the exhibit is available for viewing.

Guild artists displaying their work during this inaugural exhibition include Deb Behnke, Mila Feldblum, Bonnie Gendron, Rex Harrison, Cindy Hedgecock, Randa Lake, Kim Simas, Linda Todd-Limón and Kevin Wixom.

This exhibit is in addition to an Art Wall in the main section of the library that each month displays a different artist's work.

The new exhibit is sponsored by the Julian Public Library and Friends of the Julian Library.

"We're grateful to the library and their volunteers for the opportunity to promote culture through art and other library events in our community," said Bonnie Gendron, president of the Julian Arts Guild.

were “heathen traditions" that desecrated "that sacred event” of Christ’s birth. That understanding of how to honor Christ was carried from England to America by the Puritans. From 1659 to 1681, the celebration of Christmas was actually outlawed

by Christian officials in Boston.

Anyone caught “exhibiting the Christmas spirit” was fined five shillings. Instead of insisting people say Merry Christmas, the devout at that time believed people should be punished for saying it.

Honoring Christ at Christmas is something we cannot legislate or demand of others. It is a discipline, something we practice, something we demonstrate in our lives. It is not about whether we say Merry Christmas or not. The key is examining our Christmas celebration to see we if we are: pointing to God’s glory; living

God’s grace and truth; loving as Jesus did; shining his light into the world’s dark places; bringing peace and hope; participating in acts of compassion; cultivating generosity.

That sort of celebration will please God and draw others to Christ.

What has happened to Christmas? It seems like it is turning into the season of spending as much as we can to give more things and also to get more things. The goal each year seems to be finding ways to outdo the extravagance of last year. The commercials in which one spouse buys two new cars – one for each of them - is just one of numerous examples. This consumerism does not reflect the true spirit of Chrsitmas.

My daughters had a book growing up called The Year of the Perfect Christmas Tree. It’s a story about a man who was in Europe fighting in WWI while he wife and daughter living in Appalachia struggled to carry on without him. The mother had no money to buy a Christmas gift for their daughter, Ruthie, so she took her wedding dress and turned it into an angel costume for Ruthie to wear in the Christmas Eve pageant and a doll in a matching outfit. Her simple, thoughtful, generous act exemplifies what Christmas should be. I think we would benefit from simplifying our Christmas back to those types of essentials.

In recent years, lots of folks are also asking about what happened to Christmas but the focus seems to be on the perception that Christmas is diminished by people saying Happy Holidays or hosting holiday parties. An example of this is the complaints every year that Starbucks’ cups don’t say Merry Christmas or display any Christmas image on them.

I understand people wanting to affirm and defend Christmas.

I want to affirm and defend Christmas but this vigorous vocal protest seems more like a distraction than getting to the heart of our problem.

Complaining about people saying Happy Holidays is much easier and possibly more satisfying than actually making changes in our behavior and habits to reflect more clearly the spirit of Christ.

To me, insisting on saying Merry Christmas to everyone in a society composed of numerous different faiths is disrespectful.

Jesus said, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” I don’t want folks insisting that I conform to their religious practices. I don’t want someone to be become angry with me and shout Happy Hanukkah at me if I wish them Happy Holidays.

That sort of greeting doesn’t reflect care for the other person but rather a desire to be right or to dominate. And, saying Happy Holidays doesn’t diminish my celebration and honoring of Christmas in any significant way.

My comfort with saying Happy Holidays, started in childhood when it was common to say this greeting to cover Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year – “the holidays”. Many of the cards that arrived in the mail said Season’s Greetings or Happy Holidays.

There was no intention to deny Christ or to irradicate him from Christmas. When I say Happy Holidays today, my intention is to be respectful of differences and offer a sincere greeting despite differences.

Even if there was some way to force or convince everyone to say, Merry Christmas, that wouldn’t turn us into better people or make us a more faithful nation. Many people who don’t care about Jesus at all celebrate Christmas and say Merry Christmas. One pastor sent out a mass mailing at Christmas time inviting thousands of people to sign up for a Christian newsletter. One of the responses he received read, “We're not Christians. Kindly keep Jesus to yourself .... Merry Christmas.”

Historically, faithful observance of Christmas has not always included saying Merry Christmas.

When Oliver Cromwell and the Puritans took over England in 1645, they vowed to rid England of decadence. As part of their effort, they cancelled Christmas. Cromwell preached that Christmas carols, decorated trees, and any joyful expression

Match Holder

This tiny billiard table is actually a box to hold matches. It was kept on a table before it was auctioned by Wm Morford for $834.

Antique shoppers must learn the vocabulary of collectibles to read catalogs, make online searches or understand words with double meanings like commode (dresser) and commode (toilet.) You also need to know that Wedgwood and

The Julian News 9

Wedgewood are two unrelated, different companies. What is the difference between a match strike, match safe, match case and match holder? They all were made in the 19th century to hold wooden matches.

A match strike is a small vase kept on a table. It holds matches with the heads up. There is a rough surface used to strike the match and get a flame. A match safe or case is a rectangular box about the length of the wooden match. The box has a hinged cover that snaps shut to avoid letting the matches be accidently lit. The first wooden matches were not the safety matches used today. The match safe was often made of sterling silver with elaborate raised decoration. It was carried in a suit pocket or purse and used to light a cigar or cigarette.

The match holder usually was used in the kitchen. It was kept on a shelf or hung on the wall. An advertisement was sometimes

on the front; it held a bunch of wooden matches used to light the stove. Don't be surprised if you find that the match names are misused. Many people call them all "match holders."

This small 2-by-3 5/8-by-2inch miniature pool table is a match holder for a table. It is made of brass, felt and ivory.

The lid slides open, and there is a striking surface on the side.

Its unique shape led to a price of $834 at a Wm Morford Antiques auction in New York. *** Q: I have an old wooden ruler with "A Good Rule, Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You" printed on one side and "Compliments The CocaCola Bottling Co." printed on the other side. Any information you could tell me about it would be greatly appreciated.

A: Rulers like yours were popular advertising and promotional items given out by Coca-Cola bottlers for years.

From 1925 until the early 1960s, they were distributed to schools throughout the United States.

Because they were made and given out in such large numbers, they are easily found and not very expensive -- about $5 to $10. *** CURRENT PRICES Libbey bowl, pedestal, ruffled, clusters of puntes, intaglio flowers, ray cut foot, 4 3/4 x 9 3/4 inches, $50.

Cane, convertible, hinged handle, opens to form seat, bamboo, 29 inches, $180.

Folk art, boot scraper, wrought iron, animal shape, pierced eye, 1850, 11 x 13 x 12 inches, $350.

North Dakota School of Mines vase, lid, blue and tan glaze, carved, signed Sarah Hoffman, stamped, 6 1/2 x 6 inches, $815. *** TIP: Never use an antique stove before it has been restored and inspected by a qualified stove dealer or repair service. A damaged stove may explode or

burn and cause serious injury.

Or it might give off deadly carbon monoxide fumes.

Will the culture of communities like Little Haiti on the slightly elevated outskirts of Miami change for the worse as a result of “climate gentrification”?

Credit: Knight Foundation, FlickrCC Dear EarthTalk: What is climate gentrification and where is it happening?

– Jamie B., Boston, MA Climate gentrification is a relatively new term describing what happens when neighborhoods traditionally overlooked by wealthy people become more attractive—and expensive—given their siting in geographic areas that happen to be more resilient to climaterelated threats such as stronger, more frequent hurricanes, flooding, wildfires, etc.

The already-classic case is in Florida’s Miami-Dade County, where climate-related flooding and sea level rises are driving wealthy homeowners away from once pricey beach-front property and into the higher elevations surrounding areas like Little Haiti, Liberty City and Allapattah that have traditionally been home to struggling minority families. The result is greater density and higher home prices and rents in these recently poor neighborhoods. Meanwhile the locals move out, complaining that the transition is forcing them out of their beloved homes while sapping once vibrant cultural identities.

A recently released Harvard study of real estate values by elevation in the Miami area over the last five decades found that while home prices were rising in most parts of the 2,400-squaremile county, areas at higher elevations were experiencing larger increases. Properties located 2-4 meters above sea level rose 11.5x in value on average over the 1971-2017 study period, while those located at or within one meter of sea level rose 8x on average. Current climate projections of Florida’s coastline in a warming world show that areas less than a foot above sea level will be underwater within

another 50 years.

The Harvard study put the concept of climate gentrification in the public eye for the first time, but we can see examples of it just about everywhere. “In California, wildfires are becoming more common and forcing people to move, in some cases because their homes were destroyed, and in others because the threat of fire makes it difficult to get insurance or a mortgage,” reports Aparna Nathan of Harvard’s Science in The News blog. “Los Angeles, in particular, may see an influx of people from the coast (as sea levels rise) and further inland (as fires rage) into its traditionally working-class Eastside neighborhoods.”

Another area where climate gentrification has become a problem is Arizona, where people are moving from the overheated Phoenix area to the cooler, higher elevation areas of northern Arizona. According to Nathan, this trend is disrupting communities and the real estate market, and widening socioeconomic gaps in the process. Jesse Keenan, lead author on the Harvard study, concurs, telling Bloomberg News that the situation in Miami “evokes matters of equity and justice that have very limited historical precedent.”

Now that the issue is coming to the fore, environmental justice advocates hope that municipal planners and government officials start taking climate gentrification into account when developing master plans and drafting new zoning ordinances to make sure that even poor people have safe places to live in the face of increasing environmental torment. But as Nathan points outs, housing is just one example of an overarching theme: “as the climate changes, it will be easier for those with more resources to adapt.”

Informatiom Meeting On Forest Conservation Initiative You’re invited to an informational meeting with County of San Diego Planners and your neighbors regarding proposed zoning language changes for former Forest Conservation Initiative (FCI) properties (see description below and map on project website).

What zoning language changes will the Board of Supervisors consider?

The proposed language requires certain analyses for any amendments to the existing General Plan sought by project applicants.

The proposed amendment does not affect existing Use Regulations or General Plan densities.

The language changes will be incorporated in the Zoning

Ordinance as a new Special Area Designator for former FCI Lands and generally include the following items: • Identify the subject properties (former FCI properties outside Villages/Rural Villages) and assign a designation requiring the items below.

• Notify property owners if they are in a former FCI Lands property.

• Demonstrate the proposed project has adequate water supply.

• Demonstrate the proposed project does not increase fire risk.

• Demonstrate the proposed project is compatible with environmental resources and surrounding land use patterns.

• Demonstrate the project includes “carbon neutral” design and building features, such as energy efficient systems and appliances.

• Demonstrate the project will not induce further development within the Cleveland National Forest or other open spaces.

• Analyze the project’s consistency with regional housing plans/policies.

These items would be completed in addition to/in coordination with standard California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) evaluations.

What was the Forest Conservation Initiative (FCI)?

A voter-approved initiative which required that private lands within the Cleveland National Forest have a minimum lot size of 40 acres. Originally approved in 1993 and expired on December 31, 2010.

After the FCI expired, the County of San Diego prepared a General Plan Amendment (GPA)

and Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) to designate these lands with land use categories consistent with the 2011 General Plan. This GPA was approved by the Board on December 14, 2016.

February 26, 2019 Settlement Agreement Several organizations filed a lawsuit challenging the adequacy of the 2016 FCI GPA SEIR and the consistency of the FCI GPA with the 2011 General Plan.

A settlement agreement was reached on February 26, 2019, and the County agreed to consider limited language changes to the zoning ordinance for most former FCI lands.

Declutter A Childs Room

continued from page 5 adult assistance are best stored in closed bins inside a cabinet or closet that’s inaccessible to kids. Closed cabinets have the added benefit of reducing the appearance of clutter. Make sure to secure shelves or furniture to the wall for safety so they can’t tip over.

• Rotate Toys: Rotating toys’ placement inside storage areas will remind kids of all the fun toys they have, and is an excellent boredom-prevention tool.

• Donate: Before holidays, birthdays or other occasions when kids are showered with gifts, talk to your child about what toys are no longer used, and give them a second life by passing them on to a neighbor or friend with a younger child or by donating them to a charitable organization. Throw away any toys that are broken, hazardous or recalled.

• Use Space Wisely: While big toys like kitchens and playhouses offer up fun, they can take up a lot of playroom real estate. Opt for alternatives that can be taken down when not in use, like popup tents, tunnels and playhouses.

• Schedule Clean-Up: Set a clean-up schedule that gives kids a role in sorting and putting items back into their correct places.

Make a game of it by turning on tunes and seeing who’s the fastest.

• Get Toys off the Floor: Stepping on certain toys can be painful. A child-sized table offers a stable surface for building brick structures and other creations, plus it gets small toys off the floor.

• Use Walls: Maximize space and creativity by installing a whiteboard or chalkboard to use as an art surface. Walls are also a good place to store shelving for books.

Parents searching for more play ideas and expert tips like these can visit TheGeniusofPlay. org or follow @GeniusofPlay on Facebook and Instagram.

Decluttering play areas pays off, giving kids more opportunities to play and learn safely.

California Commentary

Another California Tax Revolt

by Jon Coupal

While 1773 and 1978 may seem like they have nothing in common, both years go down in history books as two famous taxpayer revolts.

The Boston Tea Party’s protest on December 16, 1773

by American colonists sent a strong message to Britain that Americans would not take taxation sitting down.

Fast forward two centuries later, inflation and property taxes were skyrocketing 3,000 miles away from the Boston Harbor.

Families were being pushed out of their homes because their property taxes were unbearable, and a taxpayer revolt was brewing in California. On June 6, 1978, California voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition 13, which tied property taxes to one percent of the purchase price and capped annual increases at two percent a year, bringing certainty to homeowners and businessowners by allowing them to predict their property taxes long into the future.

Sadly, California politicians have forgotten about the taxpayer revolt that occurred just over four decades ago.

The Golden State now has the highest gas tax, state income tax and state sales tax, which has translated to the highest percentage of population living in poverty and nearly the highest cost of living in the country.

This time, instead of tossing tea into the harbor or heading to the polls to vote for change, Californians are revolting by voting with their feet and moving out of state.

In fact, a recent Berkeley IGS poll found that half of the state’s registered voters admitted to giving thought or consideration to leaving California. According to the poll, 24 percent of 4,527 registered voters admitted giving “serious” thought to leaving and another 28 percent admitted giving it some thought.

And, it’s not just people that are moving; it’s businesses, too.

Companies from Toyota to Carl’s Jr. to Charles Schwab to Nestle USA are moving to other states with lower taxes and taking their good paying jobs with them.

Despite all this, Sacramento politicians and special interests are pushing for higher taxes even after the Legislative Analyst projected a $7 billion budget surplus for the year 2020-21.

According to a recent study by the nonpartisan California Tax Foundation, more than $4.4 billion a year in higher taxes and fees were signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom just this year.

And, if that’s not bad enough, an initiative collecting signatures to qualify for the November 3, 2020 ballot would raise property taxes by $12.5 billion a year.

The measure would remove Proposition 13’s protections for commercial and industrial properties and tax them based on their current market value, rather than the purchase price.

Ultimately, higher taxes on businesses mean higher costs for everything we buy, including rent, groceries, gasoline, restaurants, prescriptions, clothing, daycare, health care and much more.

It’s no wonder why fewer than half of likely California voters said they’d support the largest tax increase in state history, according to a November Public Policy Institute of California survey of Californians regarding their thoughts on a split roll property tax system.

It is clear that California is on the verge of another taxpayer revolt.

Whether it is voting against higher taxes at the ballot box or packing up their bags and moving out of state, California families have had enough.

The unrest is growing and now is not the time for new and higher taxes. *** Jon Coupal is the president of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association (HJTA).

• It was noted 20th-century American humorist and journalist Don Marquis who made the following sage observation: "Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday."

• Kangaroos can reach speeds of up to 44 mph, but they can't take a single step backward.

• As the holiday shopping season gets well under way, here's an interesting tidbit to keep in mind: According to the annual Coinstar Holiday Survey, 31% of Americans don't remember what gifts they received last year. Perhaps unsurprisingly, more women remember those details than men do.

• No less a notable than William Shakespeare described Limburger cheese as "the rankest compound of villainous smell that ever offended nostril."

• In the Shetland Islands you can find a breed of small, hardy cows that eat fish.

• Did you ever wonder why the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Ð better known as the Elks Lodge -- chose that particular animal as its symbol?

Other animals were considered and rejected for a variety of reasons: Foxes were thought to be too cunning, beavers too destructive and bears and too coarse and brutal.

• Before World War II, suspenders were more popular than belts, but the trend reversed after the war.

• You might be surprised to learn that in 1766, students at Harvard University protested against their living conditions; evidently, the butter they were served in the refectory left something to be desired. In what became known as the Great Butter Rebellion, students shouted, "Our butter stinketh!"

• Those who study such things say that if your dog has fleas, they don't actually live on your pet; they spend 90% of their time elsewhere. *** Thought for the Day: "Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding in which you put your money in your pants pocket and give your coat to the creditors."

Meth Deaths

Meth arrests for selling and possession of meth increased to 10,156 in 2018 vs. 9,293 the year before.

Most Meth Coming from Mexico. San Diego County has had a long history with meth and the problems that come

continued from page 2 The 2019 Meth Report Card also shows: There were 12,926 emergency room visits due to methamphetamines in 2017 compared to 13,209 in 2016. Data from 2018 won’t be available until 2020.

A total of 6,906 people were admitted to County-funded treatment programs due to meth abuse last year vs. 4,911 in 2017.

The rise is believed to be the result of Drug Medi-Cal, which went into effect in July 2018 and increased access to treatment facilities throughout San Diego County.

57 percent of adult arrestees tested positive for meth in 2018, compared to 56 percent the previous year.

10 percent of juvenile arrestees tested positive for meth in 2018, compared to 11 percent in 2017.

drug is being manufactured and smuggled across the border by Mexican drug cartels. Today, most of the methamphetamine in San Diego County is coming from Mexico.

According to the Drug Enforcement Administration, methamphetamine seizures from at the U.S.-Mexico ports of entry increased by nearly 40% in 2018. More than half (54%) of the methamphetamine seized along the border in 2018 occurred in the San Diego corridor.

With availability going up and prices coming down, meth is having more negative consequences in San Diego families and communities.

Treatment is Available The County funds residential and outpatient treatment programs across the region to help people recover from addiction. Participation in a recovery program also improves overall health.

While SDG&E’s goal is to complete the project as quickly as possible to minimize impact on the community, unforeseen weather conditions could affect the construction schedule. Below is the estimated timeline for completing the project.

Phase I construction began on December 9, 2019 and is scheduled to run to January 2020. This will cover the schools only.

Construction crews will be working Monday through Sunday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

• Motorists and residents can expect intermittent traffic along the construction routes – Main Street, Banner Road and Cape Horn Avenue – during work hours.

• Traffic controllers will be onsite to help direct the flow of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

Phase II construction is to be determined (currently in design), although according to the SDG&E spokes people it could be completed by summer and at the latest before the next school year.

SDG&E’s 2019 Wildfire Mitigation Plan outlines a suite of programs and initiatives that the company is undertaking to advance wildfire safety.

Strategic undergrounding of overhead power lines is part of the Wildfire Mitigation Plan that is designed to help prevent electric equipment-related fires, improve the resiliency of the regional power grid to withstand extreme weather conditions, and enhance the company’s highest priority: keeping customers and the communities it serves safe.

The Plan builds upon the wildfire mitigation programs SDG&E has developed and implemented over the past decade, building on the ongoing practices and additional improvements the company is undertaking beyond the approximately $1.5 billion in investments that SDG&E has already made.

The schools will now be able to use their “snow days” the way they where intended. The library will be able to remain open on those days the “Cool Zone” is needed and the Post office will be able to process transactions at the counter while still doing the important job of delivering mail.

None of the upgrade will be implimented for residences, which is as it should be, we all have to suffer, a little.

Family Stories continued from page 3

recording level.

Have extra tapes and batteries available. It can be very disappointing to run out of tape or batteries in the middle of a good story! Recording stories on video has become easier with new technologies. Many cell phones and digital cameras now have video-recording capacity, and regular video cameras have become smaller, inexpensive and easier to operate. After filming your interview, you can even share it with others by uploading it to YouTube.

After the Interview You can transfer all of your interviews to a CD, or you can transcribe them and compile a homemade book.

If you’re aiming for a book, always factor in plenty of time to transcribe the tapes. This step in the process can be timeconsuming, but it is often the most satisfying as you see it all coming together.

If you’re tempted to skip the transcribing and just toss the tapes into a box for future generations to sort through, don’t! Audio formats change quickly and what you think is the latest and greatest will in all likelihood be obsolete in a few years.

The smart way to transcribe is to be selective. Transcribe only those sections that are worth keeping.

The Final Product Your oral histories can be organized in many different ways.

For example, you could: Create a book with a chapter for each family member.

Group the stories according to stages of life, such as “Growing Up During the Depression,” “A Childhood in Florida,” “Experiencing Salt Lake City in

the Sixties.”

Select the juiciest sections and create your own short story collection, with titles like “A New Dad,” “The Youngest of Ten,” and “How Grandpa Killed a Chicken for Sunday Dinner.”

The possibilities are endless and your family will be thrilled that their histories are being preserved. And illustrating your collection with photographs is simply icing on the cake.

Education Poll continued from page 3

of parents and 53% of public district school teachers said they would prefer to send their own kids somewhere else. So, though parents generally say they are satisfied with their assigned district schools, their preferences (if money and transportation weren’t barriers) tell a different story.

That may be one reason support for school choice options, such as charter schools, school vouchers, taxcredit scholarships—remains strong. When families learn how education savings accounts (ESAs) can help them not just to afford private school but to customize an education for their kids—nearly everyone supports them.

• 85% of current school parents support ESAs • 78% of current public school teachers support ESAs • 77% of the general population supports ESAs. The top most important reasons people support ESAs: access to a better academic environment and more freedom and flexibility for parents.

There’s little love for more standardized testing among parents and teachers. In fact, 71% of the general population,

72% of parents and 88% of teachers think how we currently test kids is “too much” or “about right.”

People don’t know what schooling costs—public or private—but most still think public schools need more money. The majority of Americans, including public school teachers, grossly underestimate how much public schools spend per student: $12,201 on average. At the same time, they tend to overestimate how much private school tuition costs: $10,676 on average.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) That change in holiday travel plans might be more vexing than you'd expected. But try to take it in stride. Also, it couldn't hurt to use that Aries charm to coax out some helpful cooperation.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your Bovine determination helps you deal with an unforeseen complication. And, as usual, you prove that when it comes to a challenge, you have what it takes to take it on.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Although a romantic theme dominates much of the week, all those warm and fuzzy feelings don't interfere with the more pragmatic matters you need to take care of.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Best not to ignore those doubts about an upcoming decision.

Instead, recheck the facts you were given to make sure nothing important was left out.

A weekend surprise awaits you.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) No time for a catnap -- yet. You might still have to straighten out one or two factors so that you can finally assure yourself of the truth about a troubling workplace situation. Stay with it.

VIRGO (August 23 September 22) News from an old friend could lead to an unexpected (but nonetheless welcome) reunion with someone who had once been very special in your life.

Be open to the possibilities.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) It might be time for a family council. The sooner those problems are resolved, the sooner you can move ahead with your holiday preparations. Don't let the opportunity pass you by.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Take some time out to give more attention to a personal relationship that seems
