Bus riders will see significant route changes this year
Friends giving their mentor a big push BY EMILY SORENSEN A group that includes former Poway High School students are giving back to the organization and the mentor that guided them through their teen years. Don Talley, a senior national director for Youth For Christ, has spent the last 26 years mentoring youth around California, including eight years in North County. Now, a group of his former mentees and friends are coming together to celebrate his 26th anniversary with “Run With Don,” where they will push him in a wheelchair 26 miles in the Carlsbad marathon on Sunday, Jan. 19. Brad Ashwell, who graduated from Poway High School in 1996, was one of the many teens in San Diego who benefited from Don Talley’s mentorship during his high school years through Youth For Christ. After graduating, he did an internship with Talley in Sacramento. “It grew from mentoring to a deep friendship over the years,” said Ashwell. “We’ve been friends for 20 years now.” “Don is extremely down-toearth,” said Ashwell, “he’s open and honest, and he breaks down any barriers you might SEE MENTOR, Page A26

By mid-year, bus riders in Poway and along Interstate 15 will see changes to their route schedules due to the arrival of Rapid bus service. Its start will coincide with alterations by Metropolitan Transit System to routes in Poway that features major changes to Route 844 and to a lesser extent Route 845. MTS officials told the Poway City Council last month that they are recommending Route 844 be restructured to an east-west orientation across Poway Road to the Sabre Springs Transit Station that is under construction. Its service along north Espola Road would be discontinued and it would provide service every 30 minutes Mondays through Saturdays. In addition, it would take on some of the current Route 845 stops, including the Poway Road loop out to Floral Avenue, Garden Road and Kennebunk Street. Currently, Route 844 completes a loop among Espola, Midland, Poway and Pomerado roads — including stops near Poway High School — and travels as far west as Mt. Carmel High School in Rancho Penasquitos. The new Route 845 would cover the Espola, Midland, Poway and Pomerado roads loop — but not go farther west than Pomerado — on a limited service schedule. In addition it would not go farther east than Midland Road, but take as its regular service schedule the former Route 844 service along Midland Road to include the Old Poway Park area. Part of this change is to encourage ridership that connects with the Sabre Springs Transit Station and will be part of the Rapid bus service, previously promoted as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). The new service has three routes that will provide more Express-style bus options throughout the day, officials said. Two of the routes go along portions of Interstate 15. Rapid A has its farthest points at the Escondido Transit Center and downtown San

The annual event organized by San Diego North Chamber of Commerce is set for 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 4 at Sony Electronics, 16535 Via Esprillo in the Rancho Bernardo Industrial Park. As of press time the list of panelists was not finalized, but it included Erik Bruvold, president of National University System Institute for Policy Research; Mike Lucas, senior vice president of Sony Electronics’ home entertainment and sound group; and Jim Zor tman, sector vice president of global logistics and operational support at Nor throp Grumman. The moderator will be Mark Larson, morning talk show host at KCBQ 1170AM Radio. The deadline to purchase tickets is Friday, Jan. 31. They are $49 for San Diego North Chamber of Commerce members and $69 for non-members. Purchase at www.sdncc. com or call 858-487-1767. SDNCC President and CEO Debra Rosen said the State of the Region will be different from other similar events held throughout the county at this time of year in that it will focus on the industries north of state Route 52, where finance, defense and technology companies have a larger presence than in other areas of San Diego County and which she called

the region’s “backbone” for employment. “This is an opportunity for people to hear from those directly tied to the industries and what’s happening (in 2014),” Rosen said. The panelists will each be given 10 minutes to speak before answering audience questions, she said. As for what they will discuss, Rosen said that can include a forecast on how each field will
do this year and how each impacts the region and other businesses here. She said there will be four panelists, with Bruvold sharing an economists’ perspective, Zortman talking about the unmanned aerial vehicle and defense industries, Lucas focusing on technology and a yet-to-be-announced speaker providing a banking/financial outlook. Larson will facilitate the discussion.

BY EMILY SORENSEN Want to help out your community and learn how to respond in an emergency? Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training is beginning Saturday, Jan. 25 through March 29 through the City of Poway. Participants in the course will meet on nine consecutive Saturdays, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m., along with a final drill and graduation on Saturday, March 29. Those participating in the program will receive training in numerous subject areas including first aid, fire suppression, search and rescue, terrorism, emergency preparedness, and disaster psychology.

Goldsmith shares insights into resolving Filner saga, helping city heal BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK San Diego City Attorney Jan Goldsmith was greeted with a standing ovation in Rancho Bernardo on Tuesday, a way residents thanked him for his efforts in getting former Mayor Bob Filner to resign. Helping heal the city in the aftermath of a destructive elected official was not new for him, Goldsmith told the 100 present at the Conservative Order for Good Government luncheon, recounting his first cleanup job — fixing the mess left behind by predecessor Mike Aguirre. “(Aguirre) had really destroyed it,” Goldsmith said when talking about damage Aguirre inflicted upon the City Attorney’s office during a four-year term that concluded in 2008 when Goldsmith was elected to replace the incumbent. “We worked hard to put the office back together; to make it a law office,” he said, adding the first six months required 24/7 efforts. “I thought 2013 was going to be a nice, mellow year,” Goldsmith said before describing how that optimism quickly diminished at his first formal meeting with Filner on Jan. 2, 2013. Goldsmith said he wanted the good-humored rapport he had with former Mayor Jerry Sanders, where even if Goldsmith said Sanders or the city could not do something due to legal reasons, they maintained a good, friendly working relationship. In contrast, Goldsmith said Filner promptly told him that as mayor he planned to do what he wanted, consult whom he wished, would not tell the city attorney what he was doing nor would he listen to anything Goldsmith had to say. Filner then dismissed Goldsmith from the room. “(Our interactions) went downhill from that,” Goldsmith said. “I can tell a mayor ‘no,’ but I didn’t have Bob in mind.” He directed city attorney staff to not meet with Filner one-on-one and described the following seven months as “very difficult.” During this time Goldsmith said he inquired with several former Filner congressional colleagues in Washington, D.C., to learn if there was any way to work with Filner. The common reply was “no” and no one mentioned his history of inappropriate behavior towards women. The sexual harassment, Goldsmith said, “was not about sex, but putting a trophy on his wall in his head.”
COGG president Lynn Ann Reagan-Jameson with San Diego City Attorney Jan Goldsmith before his Jan. 14 talk in Rancho Bernardo about the Filner scandal. Photo by Elizabeth Marie Himchak Goldsmith said he believes Filner has mental health issues, which led to his inappropriate, illegal behavior and eventual guilty plea to a felony and two misdemeanors. Since Filner started therapy, he has noticed a positive change in Filner’s demeanor. According to Goldsmith, everything changed on July 11, 2013, when former City Councilwoman and Filner supporter Donna Frye and two others called for the mayor’s resignation, alleging sexual harassment. From that moment his task was clear — figure out what happened, if there was any basis in the allegations and how the city — his legal client — could stop it. He said the city has the same legal responsibilities as any private business when sexual harassment allegations surface. “When we become aware, we must take steps to stop it, investigate and protect the (victimized) employee,” he said. In the private sector there are quick actions employers can take — putting the accused on administrative leave or firing the individual. San Diego did not have that option since there is no provision in the City Charter, short of a six-month to year-long recall process, to fire an elected official.
Goldsmith said seven investigators were assigned to the case. “We blanketed City Hall; spoke with a lot of people,” he said. “What we discovered was a mayor who was engaged in unlawful conduct who would not stop. We consulted with a psychologist for advice on how to deal with him because this man needs help. “There was no way (Filner) was going to stop,” he said. “This was pervasive (behavior) over a long period of time. When women came forward it was clear the city had to take action.” Goldsmith said the agreement he, now Interim Mayor Todd Gloria, City Councilman Kevin Faulconer and others helped craft to get Filner out of office by Aug. 30 — less than two months after the allegations became public — occurred with “unbelievable speed” and should help the city if it financially settles lawsuits by harassed employees. While the ordeal has cost the city at least $10 million, Goldsmith said the damage Filner inflicted on employee morale and the city’s image nationwide is among aspects that need fixing. Goldsmith praised Gloria for his leadership during this difficult time and said he would have liked to see the interim mayor run for the office. “Todd rose to the occasion,” Goldsmith said. “Times have been tough, but we’ve all pulled together.” Goldsmith — a former Poway mayor and city councilman, state Assemblyman and Superior Court judge — said San Diego is on the right track. Its budget problems are on a trajectory to greatly improve within 15 years due to changes in the pension system and officials are working to fix the backlog of infrastructure issues. The City Attorney’s Office will soon release its first draft of proposed City Charter changes that will fix many of its loopholes and problems, including ways to remove elected officials when they can no longer adequately perform their duties, he said. This must be handled carefully, not making the process impossible, but not making it so easy that officials are removed at the whim of others. So voters avoid electing another like Filner, Goldsmith said he would like to see the media focus more on a candidate’s substance instead of fluff during campaigns since Filner’s years of bad behavior were known to some, but not brought to the public’s attention.

Creating Church Community with Adults Who Have Intellectual Disability” conference will be 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 15 at Hope United Methodist Church, 16550 Bernardo Heights Parkway in Rancho Bernardo. The cost is $20 per person, which includes lunch. To register, go to www.friendship.org/ who-invited-you. It is geared toward those who could start or expand such offerings to members of their congregations. According to Friendship Ministries’ website, the not-for-profit organization helps churches and organizations share God’s love with people who have intellectual disabilities. It does this by providing churches with a model for ministry and support including materials, consultations, training and encouragement. It also provides the only Bible study in Spanish for this audience. The international, inter-denominational organization has pursued its mission for 30 years by helping more than 75 denominations in 28 countries form programs. Among the Christianbased religions it assists are Baptist, Christian, Episcopal, Lutheran, Methodist, Pentecostal, Presbyterian and Roman Catholic. For a complete list of denominations, go to www.friendship.org/what-friendship/our-mission. According to the organization’s website, its mission is “to share God’s love with people who have intellectual disabilities and to enable them to become an active part of God’s family.” In addition, it said society and churches often ignore
this population’s spiritual needs and the Friendship Ministries’ program helps them be treated with respect and form “friendships with others who know and love God.” Its program is geared not only to help those with intellectual disabilities, but their families, the mentors who work with them, the church and community. Available materials include Bible studies, Christmas, Easter, prayers and ways to talk with God about one’s feelings. Hope United Methodist Church is among local congregations that work with Friendship Ministries to provide Sunday School and a worship program. Associate Pastor Drew Davis said for the past three years it has offered classes attended by nine individuals who live at a group home operated by a church member. “It seems they enjoy it,” Davis said. Prior to joining Hope United’s ministry staff, Davis said he worked for Community Interface Services, which offers a day program for adults with intellectual disabilities. When he came to the church, he noticed such individuals were not present and decided to start a program for them. “We wanted to create an environment where families can bring them here, we understand them and share with them information to help their faith grow,” he said. He said this is another way to be sure Hope United meets everyone’s needs and is fully inclusive, going beyond just different lifestyles and cultures. Davis said only a few churches in the area offer such a program and the hope is that through the conference other churches’ representatives will take back to their congregations information on what is possible for them to offer.

RB Sunrise Rotary helps local kids Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary Club members recently hosted a breakfast and holiday gift giveaway at Valley Elementary School for hundreds of area families needing a little extra Christmas cheer. Working alongside school staff and members of their sister club from Tijuana, 20 Rancho Bernardo Rotarians gave up their Saturday morning to provide breakfast, holiday gifts, wrapping, and good cheer to those needing it most. “It’s an amazing experience to get up a little early, work a little harder, give a little more, and make so many lives a little bit better,” said event coordinator Bob Davie. Davie and his team worked with numerous area merchants to provide food, sup-
plies, and gift items for Poway’s families in need. “There’s a hidden population that needs an extra boost now and again — people who, through no fault of their own, are finding it tough to provide that holiday gift for their family members,” said club President Jim Stewart. “This is why RB Sunrise Rotarians do their fundraising year-round — so that we’re able to fund programs of this sort.” The RB Sunrise Rotary Club is comprised of 55 North County business and community leaders who meet for breakfast at 7 a.m. every Tuesday at the Rancho Bernardo Country Club.

POMERADO HOSPITAL
Former employee given probation, treatment for making death threats BY KELLY WHEELER SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A fired Pomerado Hospital employee who posted threatening messages online saying he planned to go on a killing spree against former supervisors and co-workers was sentenced on Jan. 10 to five years probation and ordered released to a program where he can get treatment for his mental health issues, including anger management. Jelaan Ayinde Miles, 26, pleaded guilty in November to five felony counts of making criminal threats. The plea followed a mistrial after a jury deadlocked 11-1 for guilt. Superior Court Judge Joan Weber opted for probation and close supervision for Miles rather than sentence the defendant to four years and eight months in prison, of which Miles would have only had to serve another year before being released on parole. “I’m going out on a limb here,” Weber said. “I want all of you (family members) to be responsible for his mental health treatment.” The judge said the case against Miles was one of the “scarier” situations with which she has been involved. She told Miles that because he is a convicted felon, he can never possess a firearm again. “This is a real turning point in your life,” the judge told the defendant, giving him credit for more than 500 days in jail. Weber thanked Miles’ father for calling police on his son.
“You are a hero in this case,” the judge said. “We’ll never know if he would have carried this out.” Miles’ attorney played a video in which family members — including his grandmother — pointed out that he was a kind and thoughtful person who needed structure in his life. Miles read a letter to the court in which he apologized for his actions. “I am so ashamed and embarrassed,” Miles said, saying he didn’t mean to harm anyone. But Dr. David Tam, speaking on behalf of Pomerado Hospital, said employees who were targeted by Miles are still in a state of fear. Tam said the threats posted on the website Yelp were so specific that it caused immediate actions by administrators, including a lockdown at the hospital. “My employees — to this day — are absolutely afraid,” Tam told the judge. Detectives raided a home last April 18, seizing computers and firearms and arresting Miles. During their search, investigators found videos Miles made in which he showed off his mother’s gun and a sword, according to Deputy District Attorney Adam Gordon. Miles worked at Pomerado Hospital as an environmental service worker, which includes housekeeping, before being fired in June 2012. An administrative supervisor at the hospital, identified only as Marvene, testified at a preliminary hearing that she had a few problems SEE HOSPITAL, Page A12

with Miles not following protocol. She said a worker from the operating room called her to complain that Miles had crossed into a sterile area without shoe covers. When confronted, Miles demanded to know who turned him in, Marvene testified. Later, Miles slammed a phone to the ground and threw coffee against the wall, the witness said. Marvene said she told Miles to leave and “cool off,” but he was found cleaning another area and was escorted out of the building. Last April, a supervisor called Marvene to inform her about the posting on Yelp in which the author threatened “to kill everyone in the hospital,” including Marvene. Detectives used email coordinates to track Miles down at a Mission Valley apartment where he lived with his parents. In the defendant’s room, detectives found an airsoft gun that looked real and three Samurai swords, said sheriff’s Detective Trina Cremans.

Video released of ATM robbery gunman
Your partners in good health:
(CNS) - Authorities asked the public on Tuesday for help in identifying a gun-toting man who robbed a bank customer at a Rancho Bernardo ATM while sporting a novelty animal-head hat with floppy “ears” that hung to his waist. The thief confronted the woman outside a Union Bank branch office in the 16800 block of Bernardo Center Drive shortly before 2 p.m. Sunday, threatened her with a pistol and demanded cash, according to San Diego police. The victim complied, after which the bandit demanded more money. When she refused, the man ran over to her car — which was unlocked, with driver’s door open and the key in the ignition — and got behind the wheel. Before the thief could start the engine and

drive off, however, the woman hurried over, grabbed him, threw him to the ground, got into the vehicle and locked herself inside. The crook then fled, jumped into a gray four-door sedan parked nearby and sped off along with a second man who had been waiting inside the car, police said. A bank surveillance camera captured images of the entire robbery and failed carjacking attempt. The video can be seen at youtube.com/ watch?v=9S-yeVJrLss&feature=youtu.be. Anyone with information about the case was asked to call San Diego County Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477 or contact the agency online at sdcrimestoppers.com. Tipsters may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.

'Don't Dress for Dinner' opening Friday at PowPAC BY EMILY SORENSEN A hit French comedy about mistaken identities, and why you should never hire a cook with a similar name to your mistress, is opening Friday, Jan. 17 at PowPAC, Poway’s Community Theatre. “Don’t Dress for Dinner,” a two-act comedy play by French playwright Marc Camoletti, is PowPAC’s newest show, running through Sunday, Feb. 16 at 13250 Poway Road. “It’s a really funny show,” said director Sherrie Colbourn. “Nobody gets what they want, but everyone ends up happy.” “Don’t Dress for Dinner” tells the stor y of Bernard, played by Charles Peters, who plans on sending his wife, Jacqueline, played by Jennifer Scibetta, to her mother’s for the weekend, so he can romance his mistress, Suzanne, played by Michelle Burkhart, at their house.
Michelle Burkhart, left, and Sarah LeClair, right, star in “Don’t Dress for Dinner,” the new comedy opening at PowPAC, Poway’s Community Theatre, Friday, Jan. 16. Photo by Tony Eisenhower Bernard hires a trained chef, Suzette, played by Sarah LeClair, and invites his friend Robert, played by Mark Danielski, as an alibi. Only, Robert and Jacqueline are having an affair. When Suzanne is mistaken as the cook and Suzette as the mistress, things get even more complicated.
Throw in Suzette’s husband, George, played by Daniel R. Sky, and nobody’s sure who is who. “The smartest part [of the show] is the cook, who is so good at taking on other characters,” said Colbourn. “By the end, she’s gotten money from everybody.”
A show this loose and wild about identify requires a cast with great comedic skills, something Colbourn says she was able to assemble. “The cast is really good. Great comedians,” said Colbourn. “The show relies on timing, and has a lot of physical comedy. The cast is just excellent.”
Colbourn also had praise for the set. “It’s a gorgeous set, the perfect blend of rustic and elegance,” said Colbourn. “It takes place in a converted barn, so animals play into this. The set designers really made this work.” Colbourn was a fan of the show from seeing it performed about five years ago, and when she reread it a couple of years ago, she was reminded how funny it was. “Every time I read it, I laugh out loud,” said Colbourn. After bringing the play to the committee that decides on what shows to perform at PowPAC, “Don’t Dress for Dinner” had them laughing out loud as well. “It was a unanimous decision,” said Colbourn. After being thwarted in their attempt to gain the rights to the show last season, they were able to secure them for this season. “The show isn’t really about young people,” said Colbourn. “It’s about mature adults having a mid-life crisis.
I didn’t cast young for that reason. They’re bumbling along through mid-life, wanting an adventure.” Colbourn suggests playgoers be about 15 or 16 before seeing the show, due to some of the risque humor. Nothing in the show, however, is overtly sexual, despite the theme of affairs. “There’s innuendo, but nothing too sexual,” said Colbourn. “The show relies on humor. It’s about sex, but never sexual.” “Don’t Dress for Dinner” runs Friday, Jan. 17 through Sunday, Feb. 16 at PowPAC, Poway’s Community Theatre. Show times are 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday evenings and 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets are $18 general admission and $15 for students, seniors and active duty military. There is a $2 surcharge for opening night, which includes a post-performance reception with the cast. For tickets, call the box office at 858-679-8085 or visit www.powpac.org.

It's a school, not a 'design campus'
n Del Sur, near Del Nor te High School, construction is well underway on what will be a beautiful new place for children to learn and grow. Beginning in August, classes will be offered in grades K-6, transitioning in two years to K-8, a first for the Poway Unified School District. Those in charge of developing curriculums for this new place say teaching will be done differently here. The school’s mission, we’re told, will revolve around design, lear ning and creativity. The second and third words speak for themselves. As to “design,” school of ficials say the term comes from “design thinking,” a style of thinking and learning that they say combines empathy, creativity and rationality to solve problems. Last summer the PUSD board pondered what to name this new place of education. District policy has always been that a new school’s name should reflect something about the location of the site. Hence names like Garden Road, Bernardo Heights, Morning Creek, Twin Peaks and Meadowbrook have been used. But wait. The new education center being built on the Del Sur/4S Ranch border is really not a school in the traditional sense,
we’re told, so why call it one? How about, “Design 39 Campus”? District trustees, toward the end of a long public meeting, went along with the suggestion after being told it was the result of extensive discussion by the school’s staff. Trustee Kimberley Beatty voted against the recommendation, saying she felt the name would stand out too much and that it didn’t signify equity and sameness. “Camino Ridge Elementary,” the backup recommendation, was more to her liking. We’re probably too late to make a difference here, but “Design 39 Campus” (or “D39C” as it has been nicknamed) sounds more like place where engineers would gather to create a new automobile or perhaps an institute for interior decorators. At the very least, the name is sounds a bit pretentious. To the dedicated professionals who are busy getting ready to open what certainly will be a remarkable, albeit unconventional, place of learning, go our best wishes for a successful launch. But what is being built in Del Sur is a school. For the sake of the children attending it, for their parents and for the community in general, another name, perhaps the top alternative, should be considered.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Congress hurts retired veterans California’s two senators and Congressman Scott Peters voted for the 2014 federal budget that cuts the cost of living increases for retired military veterans under age 62, thereby reducing $3.7 trillion federal budget by about $6 billion. In effect they were telling these veterans that their service is just not as significant as other retired veterans. Instead of taking the easy route and punishing veterans, Congress could find logical places to make spending cuts by looking at an annual oversight report, “Wastebook 2013,” by Sen. Tom Coburn. This report highlights some of the wasteful spending totaling nearly $30 billion and represents a fraction of more than $200 billion we lose every year through fraud, waste and mismanagement of our tax dollars. Some examples in the report: the National Endowment for the Humanities spent $914,000 exploring romance as told in novels, films and comics; the Department of Defense destroyed $7 billion worth of usable military equipment overseas that could have been sold or shipped home; the federal government paid salaries to thousands of federal employee tax cheats ($3.6 billion), and also paid billions of dollars in earned income tax credits to prisoners, dead people and illegal immigrants; and NASA spent $3 million to study one of the mysteries of the universe, “How Congress Works.” Congress should resolve to cut wasteful spending and the mismanagement of our tax dollars. Stop using veterans as a means to make budget cuts. Veterans have earned the right to be treated with dignity, and they deserve the highest respect.

(Welcome to) Rancho Bernardo sign Great news about the installation delay of the replacement Welcome to Rancho Bernardo sign (News Journal Jan. 2). Why? The new proposal overlooks three important design/content aspects: 1) it does not say “Welcome to”; 2) it fails to use harmonious original architectural design elements consistent with surrounding businesses and
residences; 3) it neglects using only historically accurate building materials employed when Rancho Bernardo was conceived and built. When there was already a perfectly appropriate, workable original design, why was it even necessary to spend time (money?) and effort re-inventing the wheel? Why not simply rebuild, enhance and reconstruct the sign to modern code? The other fortuitous inclusion in this same News Journal edition is a photo of the original sign on page A3. How can it be explained that these two sign photos appeared in the same edition... what were the chances? Great timing. Good neighbors and dedicated sign committee: It is not too late to intelligently rework the proposal to include “Welcome to” and exhibit sensitivity to the era in which this fine community was originally conceived and built. Do we not owe it to those who came before us and to those who follow to honor, respect, preserve and celebrate our neighborhood’s unique history?

'Dysfunctional' city government We who are fortunate to live here in the land of sunshine, and of a dysfunctional San Diego city government. One person leaves and a project which has been on the books for almost five years (The RB welcome sign) is again on hold. We also have a dysfunctional Maintenance Assessment District committee. They have decreed that three parts of Pomerado Road, going north from Rancho Bernardo Road, will have plants and watering and trees, etc., while north of this planned lovely oasis are the ugly black medians which will continue to be a blight for those of us who live here.

POMERADO NEWSPAPER GROUP
Parents often the cause of problem students Headline: “Federal government issues guidelines on school discipline.” Just what the education establishment needs is more government intervention. This time it is in the realm of discipline, where school districts are being told that they must be “safe and orderly.” If you delve into this euphemism, you find that the feds are concerned about the disproportionate number of minority students who are expelled or suspended from school. Now I do not disagree with the statistics that show that minorities are excluded from classrooms at a greater rate than their white classmates; 36 years teaching at the middle school level proved that to me without a doubt. It is what the guidelines say that bothers me. In Escondido, the student population in the high school district is 62 percent Hispanic and they make up 80 percent of the suspensions. Though disproportionate, that statistic is not too shocking. But compare that to the Poway Unified District where the Hispanic population is only 11 percent but they make up 43 percent of expulsions and suspensions and you have a truly alarming disparity. There is a problem, no doubt. My concerns are with the suggested remedies that do not include the major sources of the
LETTERS
A history lesson Regarding Ms. Beck’s Jan. 2 letter: President George W. Bush went to war in Iraq with the full support of 29 out of 77 Democrats, including such “notables” as Biden, Clinton, Kerry and Reid. Nizan Nayouf, an awardwinning Syrian journalist (granted asylum in France), claims he knew of WMD stockpiled by Saddam Hussein that were transported in underground tunnels to Syria. The Internet is replete with this information. America’s Andrew Breitbard also did extensive reporting on these WMD tunneled to Syria. Yes, President Nixon resigned because of one lie; our current president lies and lies and lies, and then lies to cover up his multiple lies. I am surprised that Ms. Beck disparaged President Reagan, who both Democrats and Republicans hail as a great president of our modern times. Remember, it was his “acting” that helped tear down the Berlin Wall. It was his “acting” that pulled our economy from the dismal dregs of the Carter administration to a robust Reagan economy that has been unprecedented since his office. JFK plagiarized quote is from Kahlil Gibran’s “Mirrors of the Soul” (page 59), not “The Prophet” — my bad. I’m sure that if Ms. Beck is familiar with “The Prophet,” she surely must know of “Mirrors of the Soul.” Plagiarism is “… using or closely imitating the written words or thoughts without the author’s permission,” (Dictionary.com). “Improvising” the quote by Robert Kennedy, by Ms. Beck’s standards, without proper citation, is still plagiarism by definition.
MARIE WOODRUFF Rancho Bernardo
Bob Emery MY TOWN disciplinary problems in the first place: the home. Whether it is a combative household, abuse, disinterest or simply parents working too many jobs to be involved, the problem still begins in the home. The federal guidelines call for workshops for teachers and other school personnel in classroom management, having counselors at elementary schools and conflict resolution training for all. These are the suggestions to reduce the disparity in expulsions, and there is nothing wrong with them except they do not include the source or root of many student problems, the home. You can “conflict resolve” until you are blue in the face but as long as the student returns home to a dysfunctional, disruptive, empty or non-supportive environment, the problems will continue at school and elsewhere. Too often, the home environment and parental support are ignored when assessing student behavior.
As a teacher, when I had a disciplinary problem with a student that rose to the level of meeting with the parents, I many times became far more sympathetic to the child when parents displayed the same belligerent attitudes as their child, relayed their disdain for proper classroom behavior, or showed their disinterest in the problems that brought about the request for a parent conference. Sure, “bad kids” can happen to good parents, but that is a rarity. Students reflect the behavior and attitudes of their parents and they bring those traits to the classroom with them. When “Big Brother,” the feds or the state or even the school districts themselves mandate more training for teachers or principals or school aides to solve inequities in discipline, they need to “mandate” parental involvement. Without positive changes in parent participation in their child’s behavior, remediation and modification based solely at the school will have little effect. I spent 36 years surrounded by 12- to-14-yearolds and it was a great profession. One fact was always apparent, kids with the most supportive parents were the most successful students. Emery is a retired middle school teacher and former Poway City Council member. Reader comments, through letters to the editor or online at pomeradonews.com, are encouraged.
The long-term effects of marijuana In my last column I addressed a new pattern of increased use of a marijuana concentrate called “wax.” To continue in the same vein of marijuana education, I’d like to discuss some new research. A study from Northwestern University states use of marijuana appears to foster brain changes that resemble schizophrenia. Along with other research that has drawn colorations between depression and anxiety with marijuana abuse, these are just the latest in a series of findings that beg the question of medical marijuana’s “harmless” reputation among its proponents. The legal status of marijuana notwithstanding, the consensus of researchers seems to be that this plant does cause harm, especially to teens. Heavy cannabis use is associated with increased risk of developing depressive disorders including major depression and generalized anxiety disorder. The risk is much higher in the population I see using marijuana, the most which is teens. The latest in a string of studies on the long-term effects of marijuana shows actual structural changes in the brains of long-term (three years) daily users. This damage is most significant in users that began at an early age, usually in their early to mid-teens. These changes in the brain are undeniably related to chronic use beginning at a young age and impact memory (learning), motivation and mood regulation. The study also states that the changes resemble those found in people suffering from schizophrenia. Now, it isn’t clear that the changes in the brain are responsible for the schizophrenic symptoms, but further research should clear that up. No matter what causes the symptoms of schizophrenia, the study makes it clear that marijuana is a cause in the structural changes. This can easily become a chicken and egg debate, but the simple truth is, it doesn’t matter when it comes to children and teenagers using drugs. Without a fully formed brain, teenagers exist in a middle ground. They are not children, as they can perform many tasks as well as, and sometimes even better, than adults. They are able to reason to a certain degree (i.e. not touch a hot stove, know
Will Wooton THE STRAIGHT DOPE right from wrong) and speak with a full grasp of the English language. However, their brains are still forming in areas crucial to understanding long-term consequences, emotional regulation and controlling strong impulses. At 16 years of age they can drive on the roads and are responsible for nearly four times as many fatality/injury accidents as those 20 and older. A teen’s impaired ability to drive in a safe manner is a clear window into the difference between an adult brain and one that isn’t fully formed. This is just an example of one daily activity that is not risk-free for adults but is significantly more dangerous for teens. Considering the chasm that exists between a fully formed brain and the brain of a teenager, the thought of putting substances that further impair that development into their system is frightening. Whether or not marijuana legalization advocates want to admit it, the legal status of marijuana does impact its accessibility to teens. This new research has to concern everyone involved in the debate and must impact the way legislators proceed with marijuana as both a legal and health issue. To continue the discussion as though this substance is benign and “medicine” for everyone is harmful to teens and communities. Our efforts this year will be focused on educating pre-teens and their families about the realities of substance abuse. Being aware of the facts and what medical research is finding out can only further the cause of having healthy and happy kids in our communities.

Who sets the tone for your company? There’s a marketing lesson in my recent minor medical procedure. My general practitioner gave me two referrals. Geography, skill sets, and costs were equivalent. Personal chemistry decided whom I chose for the services I hired. Regardless of what you hear, a doctor sells services and you deserve good customer service, answers to your questions, courteous treatment, and a reasonable price. Because, like buying a car or a bar of soap, there’s usually a competitor you can talk to. For years I’ve said people do business with people they know, like and trust. With all else equal, the salesperson’s personality provides the tie-breaker in whether or not I’ll hire his firm. So it was with Dr. Smith, Dr. Jones, and their staffs. Dr. Smith’s receptionist was arrogant. She insisted I must submit all my insurance paperwork prior to her making an appointment for me to ensure they got paid. Her reasoning (“This is how we do business here”) made me feel like I was being treated like the enemy by someone I’d never even met. Not a promising way to earn my trust. Dr. Jones’ receptionist was pleasant, personable, and efficient. She immediately scheduled my appointment, offering to handle everything when we met. Guess who got my business? Perhaps Dr. Smith is arrogant and his staff merely reflects his attitudes. Maybe he’s a nice guy. I’ll never know, since his front line representative scared me away and
Rob Weinberg ASK MR. MARKETING I’ll never go back. Combining an aging population and Obamacare suggests many doctors’ offices will be increasingly overloaded. Yet good customer service remains important. Without it the Dr. Smiths will increasingly find I’m not alone in my feelings. And by providing good service without attitude, the Dr. Joneses will get more patients, more referrals, and more profits. You’re dealing with the health of your business. If you’re not adequately building your bottom line, consider whether you or your staff treats prospective customers with arrogance or courtesy. Is your attitude luring them in, or chasing them away? Those casual inquiries are key, since a certain percentage will become customers. More inquiries should eventually mean more profits. But be rude and they’ll walk across the street. And you are the guaranteed loser. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing. Mr. Marketing now feels better and can help you review your sales process at sales@askmrmarketing.com.

Choosing a continuing-care retirement community
f you want your next move to be your final one, a full-service retirement community — better known as a continuing-care retirement community (or CCRC) — is a good option to consider, but they aren’t cheap, so you need to be prudent when choosing. CCRCs are different from other types of senior housing because they provide all levels of housing, services and care in one convenient location. While they vary greatly in appearance and services, most CCRCs offer apartments or sometimes single-family homes for active seniors who need little if any help with their daily needs. In addition, they also offer on-site assisted living for people who require aid to bathe, dress or perform other basic tasks, and nursing home care for residents who need full-time skilled-nursing care. CCRCs also provide a bevy of resortstyle amenities and services that include community dining halls, exercise facilities, housekeeping and transportation as well as many social and recreational activities. But be aware that all these services come at a hefty price. Most communities have entry fees that range from $20,000 to $500,000 or more, plus ongoing monthly service fees that can vary from around $1,000 to over $5,000 depending on the facility, services and the longterm care contract option you choose. With nearly 1,900 CCRCs in operation
Jim Miller THE SAVVY SENIOR throughout the U.S., finding a facility that fits your lifestyle, needs and budget can take some legwork. Here are some steps you can take to help you proceed. Make a list: Start by calling the Area Agency on Aging (call 800-677-1116 for contact information) in the area you want to live for a list of CCRCs. You can also search online at leadingage.org/ findmember.aspx or carf.org/aging that has a national listing of accredited CCRCs. Call the facilities: Once you’ve located a few, call them to find out if they have any vacancies, what they charge and if they provide the types of services you want or need. Take a tour: Many CCRCs encourage potential residents to stay overnight and have a few meals in their dining hall. During your tour, notice the upkeep and cleanliness of the facility, and talk to the current residents to see how they like living there. Also, check out the assisted living and nursing facilities, and find out how decisions are made to

To check-up on a facility, call the state long-term care ombudsman (see ltcombudsman.org) who can tell you if the assisted living and nursing facilities within the CCRC have had any complaints or other problems. Also, use the Medicare nursing home compare tool (medicare. gov/nursinghomecompare), which provides a ranking system. Investigate fees: During your visit, get a rundown on the different kinds of contracts that are available and their costs. Also, find out what types of services are included and what costs extra. What yearly price increases can you expect? How much of your entry fee is refundable to you if you move or die? And what happens if you outlive your financial resources? Research the community’s financial health: Find out who owns or sponsors the facility, and get a copy of their most recently audited financial statement and review it, along with the copy of the contract to review with your lawyer or financial adviser. Also get their occupancy rate. Unless it’s a newer community filling up, occupancy below 85 percent can be a red flag that the facility is having financial or management problems.

Mayoral candidate Alvarez promises to listen to the neighborhoods (Second of two profiles on the Feb. 11 candidates. The profile on Councilman Kevin Faulconer appeared last week.)
BY JOE TASH If he is elected mayor of San Diego, David Alvarez said he will listen to neighborhood residents, “and their concerns will be addressed.” Alvarez, 33, was elected to the City Council in 2010. He grew up in San Diego’s Barrio Logan neighborhood, where he lives today. Alvarez and Kevin Faulconer, also a San Diego councilman, are running to complete the term of former Mayor Bob Filner, who resigned in August amid a sexual harassment scandal. In a November mayoral primary, Faulconer, a Republican, finished first, with 42 percent, followed by Alvarez, with 27 percent, in a field of 11 candidates. Three prominent Democrats — Alvarez, Nathan Fletcher and Mike Aguirre — were represented on the ballot. Although registered Democrats outnumber Republicans by 39 to 26 percent in San Diego (28 percent of voters list no party preference), Faulconer enjoys a sizeable fundraising advantage based on year-end campaign filings, having taken in $1.4 million compared to Alvarez’s $524,000
DAVID ALVAREZ in 2013. Alvarez said he has more campaign volunteers on the ground, which he believes will make the difference in the election. “I’ve never had a lot of money, but I’ve had a lot of people who believe in me and my vision for the city,” Alvarez said. Alvarez listed five priorities if elected mayor: reinvesting in neigh-
borhoods parks, libraries and public safety; improving infrastructure, such as roads and bridges; establishing reliable sources of water, including the use of treated wastewater for both drinking and landscaping; providing open and transparent government; and creating a climate action plan that would reduce greenhouse gases and allow residents to purchase electricity from renewable sources. Alvarez insisted he is ready to take on the challenge of running the city of San Diego, a government agency with a $2.8 billion annual budget and more than 7,000 employees, in spite of only having served one term on the City Council. He said he began his career in public service at 18 as an educator, neighborhood activist and youth minister. Before being elected to the City Council, he served as a district aide to state Sen. Denise Ducheny. “My commitment to the community and public service are very clear. And we will make sure we have the most competent individuals making decisions as part of my team,” he said. “Age has not determined the success or failure of any mayor in the past,” he said. (A case in point: Filner was 70 when he resigned in disgrace last summer.)
Alvarez and Faulconer have differed on a number of recent highprofile issues, including a hike in affordable housing fees charged for new development (Alvarez supported it while Faulconer opposed it), and a community plan update for Barrio Logan. Faulconer sided with business interests that gathered signatures to put a repeal of the plan before voters, while Alvarez helped broker the deal that led to the approved community plan. The two also disagreed on a pension reform measure, Proposition B, which was approved by voters in 2012. Faulconer signed a statement supporting the initiative, which calls for new city employees — other than police officers — to have 401k-style retirement plans instead of pensions. Alvarez said the measure deprives city workers of a needed safety net for retirement because they are not part of the Social Security system. They also differ on managed competition, another voter-approved plan to put certain city services out to bid between city departments and private companies. Faulconer has said he will enthusiastically pursue such competition to cut costs, while Alvarez said he will use managed competition as a tool, but was skeptical of the savings that can be generated.
The differences were less pronounced on two other issues: medical marijuana dispensaries and public funding for a new Chargers stadium. The two candidates said they support public access to medical marijuana. Faulconer said in an earlier interview that protections must be in place for neighborhoods, such as restrictions on locating dispensaries near churches or schools. Alvarez said the dispensaries must be spread out throughout San Diego’s communities, rather than being concentrated geographically. “You cannot dump all the medical marijuana dispensaries in one community,” he said. Both also were reluctant to commit to any use of public funds for a new stadium. Alvarez said he believes a new Chargers stadium could be built on the site of the existing Qualcomm Stadium in Mission Valley with private financing. “I oppose the use of general fund dollars that get used for police, fire, parks. I’ve been very clear about that for the last six months now,” Alvarez said. The campaign, which was on hiatus over the holiday season, is now in full swing in the run-up to the Feb. 11 election. Six broadcast debates are scheduled from Jan. 15-31.

have. He uses the weaknesses he was born with, and the struggles he has every day, to minister to kids.” Talley, who now lives in Denver with his wife and two daughters, was born with a rare neuromuscular disorder called congenital fiber-type disproportion, which means his muscles have more of one fiber type than the other, which causes muscle weakness, pain and difficulty breathing. The weakness means Talley mostly uses a wheelchair to get around. What began as Ashwell and his wife, Bethany, making a plan to get in shape and run a marathon grew into something more. “Brad called me and said, ‘Don, my life is pathetic. I’m out of shape and I need a goal,’” said Don Talley. “He said he wanted to run a marathon, and raise funds and awareness for Youth For Christ by running a marathon.” In the two days that it took Talley to help Ashwell set up a fundraising account, however, things had changed. “Brad said, ‘things have changed. Now there’s four of us, and we’re going to push you,’” said Talley. “Brad wanted to push me, like I’ve been pushing them for 26 years.” “I said, what if we got Don to do it?” said Ashwell. “We got the idea to push Don [in the marathon], and started calling some friends from high school.” Those friends include other teens that Talley mentored, like Nate Tibbs, another Poway High School grad (in 1997), and Josh Escalante, who graduated from Rancho Bernardo High School in 1997. Talley wasn’t initially on board with the
idea. “I called Don and he said, are you kidding me?” said Ashwell. “When he told me they were going to push me, I said, ‘no you’re not, that’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. A marathon isn’t even on my bucket list,’” said Talley. Still, Talley agreed, based on the fact that the marathon would be raising awareness for Youth For Christ. “I’m humbled and honored that they would do this for me,” said Talley. “If it was just celebrating my 26 years [of mentorship], I wouldn’t do it. But, because it is pushing the mission of Youth For Christ, I’m all in.” One of the hardest parts of “Run With Don” was finding a marathon that would agree to allow someone in a wheelchair to be pushed in the race. Ashwell said he initially wanted to do the Honolulu marathon, because it does not have a time limit, but the marathon would not allow Talley to register because of legal issues. Ashwell turned to the Carlsbad marathon after Honolulu didn’t work out. “[The Carlsbad marathon] welcomed us with open arms,” said Ashwell. The marathon in Carlsbad, however, comes with a challenge for the team: a six-hour time limit. “We think we can do it under six hours,” said Ashwell. The seven various team members will all take turns pushing Talley’s wheelchair throughout the marathon. The wheelchair was another hurdle. Participating in the marathon meant finding a wheelchair not only meant for being used in a long race, but one comfortable
enough for Talley to sit in for six hours. Ashwell and the team got in touch with the Team Hoyt organization, who donated a special wheelchair for Talley to use. Despite the special wheelchair, Talley said the marathon remains an “unknown” for him physically. “The only picture I have is sitting for five to six hours in an airplane that is having a lot of turbulance,” said Talley. His sister, a physical therapist who lives in Oceanside, will be heading up a medical team who will monitor Talley throughout the race. His sister is also experimenting with the marathon wheelchair to figure out the most comfortable configuration. Still, Talley is prepared for pain. “I think the race will be hard, and that I’ll be tired, fatigued and in pain afterwards,” said Talley. “But I envision myself tweeting during the race to keep myself entertained.” The race will be tough for Ashwell and the team as well, who began training for the marathon last February. Ashwell said he practiced at first pushing his children’s stroller, until his practice runs became too long for his toddler to tolerate. “It’ll all be about keeping up our energy levels while pounding the pavement,” said Ashwell. No matter the outcome of the marathon, Talley said the “Run for Don” event has been a “sweet reunion” with his old friends and mentees. “I’m looking forward to the team getting together face to face,” said Talley.

Diego and Rapid B has farthest points at the Rancho Bernardo Transit Station and University of California, San Diego. A third route — Rapid C — can be accessed by those riding Rapid A at a transit station being built near Interstate 15 and El Cajon Boulevard. Its farthest points are downtown San Diego and San Diego State University. Route A (Escondido-downtown San Diego) will have all-day service, seven days a week with a weekday frequency of 15 or 30 minutes and a weekend frequency of 30 minutes, officials said. Route B (Rancho Bernardo-UCSD) will have weekday frequency peaks of 15 minutes. “The primary benefit of Rapid is that it provides all-day service at a high frequency,” said MTS Spokesman Rob Schupp. Though its routes are similar to the Express and Premium buses running now, the latter is primarily available only during rush hour. “Rapid ... gives far more options,” he said. While faster throughout the day since it will access the HOV lanes along Interstate 15, Schupp said those traveling directly downtown from Rancho Bernardo during rush hour, for example, will still likely prefer taking the Express bus since it will have fewer stops than Rapid. But for those wanting to go to points in between or travel during non-rush hour times, Rapid would be their best option. According to Schupp there will not be any fare increases due to Rapid becoming available next summer. “The whole goal ... is to make a more rail-like experience,” Schupp said, adding this will not only be accomplished through more frequent service but better amenities at the transit stations. Last year the Rancho Bernardo station was among those that acquired new arrival time signage and bus shelters for riders. In Sabre Springs, the station tentatively scheduled to be completed by March will feature a multi-story, 630-space parking garage and other amenities. When the new service becomes available, Rapid riders will also be transported in new 60-foot long articulated buses. For more details, go to www.keepsandiegomoving.com/I-15Corridor/I-15-intro.aspx.

Home prices up 17.5% in December SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The median price of a home in San Diego County jumped by 14.8 percent in December, compared with the same month a year ago, while the number of homes sold dipped by 17.5 percent, a real estate information service announced Tuesday. According to DataQuick, the median price of a San Diego County home was $420,000 last month, up from $366,000 in December 2012. A total of 3,099 homes were sold in the county, down from 3,757 during the same month the previous year. A total of 18,415 new and resale houses and condos changed hands in Los Angeles, Riverside, San Diego, Ventura, San Bernardino and Orange counties last month, according to DataQuick. That was up 6.5 percent from 17,283 in November and down 9.2 percent
from 20,274 in December 2012. The median price for a Southern California home was $395,000 in December, up 2.6 percent from $385,000 in November and up 22.3 percent from $323,000 in December 2012. Last month’s median price was the highest since February 2008, when the median was $408,000, according to DataQuick. “Sales have fallen short of the same period a year earlier for three consecutive months now, and the pitifully low inventory is the main culprit,” according to DataQuick President John Walsh. “The jump in home values over the last year suggests we’ll eventually see a lot more people interested in selling their homes, which would help ease the inventory crunch. More supply would put downward pressure on prices, as would rising mortgage rates.”

League play on horizon for locals A
fter one of the most successful pre-league performances in recent memory by winter teams in the local area, it is time to put it in the past and let the races toward league titles begin. The Bench has lofty expectations after the non-league por tion of the schedule saw at least one team — and in many cases several — from Poway High, Rancho Bernardo and Del Norte play at the level of a champion. But every team starts with a clean slate now and that means those teams
Michael Bower FROM THE BENCH
that had it going in the first half of the year will have to keep it going in order to emerge at the top of their respective league. It also means those teams that started slow, can start fresh and make a run. “It is kind of like playing golf,” said
Del Norte boys basketball coach Bob Spahn, whose team entered this week with a 10-4 record. “You can play a bad first nine holes, but then you turn the page and it is a whole new game going into that back nine.” That’s right. Just ask Poway girls soccer coach Jen Lalor-Nielsen, who saw her team win just two of its first nine games last season before going on to share the Palomar League title and advance to the semifinals of the CIF San Diego Section Division I playSee BENCH, Page B3
ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Hoffman will be sporting new hairstyle at Farmers Insurance Open tourney BY MICHAEL BOWER For years, Charley Hoffman has always been one of the easiest golfers to spot on the PGA Tour. His famous long blond locks would crawl out from underneath his hat, making him impossible to mistake for another player. But those tr ying to hunt down the 1995 Poway High graduate at the upcoming Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines (Jan. 23-26) might have some trouble this time — the hair is gone. “I have been wanting to cut it for a little while,” said Hof fman, who decided to join his daughter, Claire, in getting a trim last August. “I don’t ever see myself having long hair again. It is nice to
be able to go a few places, not to say I was recognized before, but now I can head to places and people don’t recognize (me) ... It is nice. “I feel good and almost feel young to a point,” the 37-year-old added. “I don’t know why or how. It is just the way I feel.” Not that the hair, or lack of it, has made a dif ference, but Hoffman opened the 2013-2014 season on a tear. He cashed in each of the first four tournaments, including a $288,000 payout for his fourth-place finish at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open last October. He is entering play in 2014 having already made $392,288 and with a 28 ranking. See HOFFMAN, Page B4
HEADING FORWARD
Renken overcomes multiple concussions, shining for DNHS BY MICHAEL BOWER Every now and then Karli Renken will get a painful reminder of what she has gone through the past year and what has forever changed the way she plays the game of soccer. Suffering three concussions in a seven-month span is hard to forget anyway, but add in chronic headaches, a piece of headgear and a soccer ball coming toward your head every so often and it is nearly impossible. “Sometimes it is really scary,” said Renken, a sophomore forward for the Del Norte High girls soccer team. “I wear the black head gear, but it doesn’t protect you from everything; so, whenever I see the ball coming toward my head it really freaks me out.” And for good reason. One more concussion could not only mean the end of her soccer playing days, but could also affect her for the rest of her life. So to protect herself on the field, Renken wears a black piece of headgear and tries to avoid headers as best she can. “If there is no way I can get out of the way then I will brave the consequences and head the ball, which I shouldn’t because I don’t want to get another concussion and be out for good,” said Renken, whose first two concussions were suffered on a soccer field. The first after colliding with a player and the next, some seven months later, after hitting her head on the ground. The See RENKEN, Page B3

PREP BOYS BASKETBALL
Broncos, Nighthawks set for a second showdown BY MICHAEL BOWER The Rancho Bernardo High boys basketball team steamrolled Del Norte in the first two meetings between the two at the varsity level. In 2011, it was a 76-28 laugher. In 2012, it was a 67-53 crushing. But in 2013 the Nighthawks turned the tables, beating the Broncos for the first time in school history before a nearly filledto-capacity crowd that rocked the gymnasium for all 32 minutes of the 51-33 blowout at Del Norte High. The one-sided affairs appear to be over now, though. The Nighthawks (10-4 entering this week) squeaked out a 48-46 win over the Broncos (6-7 entering this week) in the Mt. Carmel Holiday Showdown Classic over the winter break to even the Del Norte all-time series at 2-2. at And another close one is expected Rancho Bernardo when the two meet for the second time this season Friday night at Rancho BerFriday: 7 p.m. nardo High (tip at 7). The gym is expected to be packed and the atmosphere as electrifying as it ever has been for a contest between these two neighboring schools. “This is the first time we have played them twice in a season,” said Nighthawks coach Bob Spahn, who assisted Broncos coach Jim Choe before heading up the Del Norte program. “And I know Jim very well, and what we saw the first time I guarantee we will not see again. He probably as a lot of things hidden up his sleeve and it’s at their place so that will be a factor. It was standing-room only at our place last year and I hope it is the same way Friday at their place.” Choe came right out and said he made sure to keep some of his tricks in the bag in the first meeting. “I think both Bob and I held back a little,” Choe said. “I didn’t
The Broncos’ Michael Searson, left, and the Nighthawks’ Andy Stone, right, will be part of what is expected to be a thrilling showdown Friday night at Rancho Bernardo. File photo want to show everything and I am sure he didn’t either.” These two squads have a very similar makeup — physical post players and accurate shooters around the perimeter. They matchup pretty evenly in height and team speed. The only glaring difference comes in experience, where the Nighthawks

have the edge. “I don’t think either one of us is bigger or faster than the other,” Spahn said. “They are definitely younger than us. They play a freshman and a couple of sophomores and we play mainly seniors. I guess if there is any difference you would think we are a little more experienced.” Nighthawks’ senior Austin Clyde, who is averaging over 21 points per game, put up 22 against the Broncos in the last meeting. The 6-foot, 6-inch Alex Bulkin held his own inside with 11 points and seven rebounds. Del Norte was only 2-for-8 from beyond the 3-point line, but it has the ability to hit seven or eight in a game. “We have some really good outside shooters,” Spahn said. “We have three or four guys that if you are not going to give them attention then they are going to hurt you. Some guys can hit three or four 3-pointers in a row.” The Broncos also have three or four guys that can put a hurting on an opponent, including freshman point guard JJ Overton, junior Devin Goodloe and seniors Michael Searson and Dillon Wirkus. Overton, who set the school record for 3-pointers made in a game with eight earlier this season, is averaging 11 points per outing. Wirkus leads the team with 12 per game, while Goodloe is also in double digits with 10 per game. “Those are the guys that at any given time can go off and get a lot of points,” Spahn said. “But you also can’t forget about Searson. He is a physical guy and he bangs inside. It might not show up in the box score all the time, but he gets the job done inside.” Choe is anxious to see how his young guys respond to the elevated atmosphere that is expected. “It will be interesting to see how the young kids can deal with the spotlight,” he said. “There is going to be a big crowd out at the gym.” And likely a thrilling finish.

Local Little League to feature new 50/70 division BY MICHAEL BOWER
The Poway, and Rancho Bernardo Little Leagues will have a new Intermediate Division for 13-year-old players. File photo
BENCH
Little League International introduced an Intermediate 50/70 baseball division in 2013. District 31, which includes the Poway, Rancho Bernardo and 4S Ranch Little Leagues, will be offering the division for the first time this upcoming season. The division, which features a 50-foot pitching distance and 60-foot base paths, was created to help players transition incrementally from a Little League-sized field (46-foot pitching distance and 60-foot base paths) to a professional-sized field (60/90). The rules will be similar to ones used on a 60/90-field, which includes stealing, leads, pick-off attempts, balks and the use of big-barrel bats. Little League International has set the age parameter for
players to be between 11-13. But each district can decide on its own age limit, as long as it is within the parameter. District 31 will be only for 13-year-old players. “We are limiting the age to 13-year-olds only because we don’t want it to take away from the other leagues,” Poway National Little League president Tony Texeira said. “We were afraid a lot of 12-year-olds would jump to the intermediate division and we wanted to preserve our majors division.” Travel teams have been using the intermediate-sized diamond for quite some time now. But here in Southern California, travel ball tends to be very competitive and not every young player fits the mold. “For me, it is another option for kids that love the game of baseball and might not be able to play in something that is as competitive as travel ball,” Poway American Little League SEE BASEBALL, Page B4

offs. So anything can happen and it usually does. So fasten those seat belts and get ready for what should be an exciting winter season filled with thrilling, down-to-the-wire league title chases. Here is a glance at some of the local teams opening league play: Today (Thursday): The Poway wrestling team is a lock to capture another Palomar League crown. The Titans will host Torrey Pines at 7 p.m. tonight in the league opener. In what should be a more competitive match, Rancho Bernardo hosts Mt. Carmel at 7 p.m., as well. Tuesday: League play will be in full swing with boys and girls hoops, boys and girls soccer and girls water polo. There are two games that stand out to The Bench: Rancho Bernardo vs. Torrey Pines in girls water polo and Poway at Mt. Carmel in girls basketball. The Broncos’ girls water polo team is looking to dethrone the longtime league champion Falcons. That match will be at UCSD at
4:15 p.m. Over on the court, the Sundevils are ranked No. 9 in the section, while the Titans are No. 10. That game will tip at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday: The day of Del Norte vs. Orange Glen. The two Valley League teams will meet in boys and girls basketball and boys and girls soccer. The Nighthawks have a chance to sweep the Patriots across the board, but the toughest matchup will come in boys soccer. The Patriots are the defending league champions, but the Nighthawks did beat them and tie them in their two meetings last season. That game will be at 5:15 p.m. at Orange Glen. **** Rematch: The Poway High boys soccer team will face Carlsbad today (Thursday) in a rematch of last year’s CIF San Diego Section Division I semifinal. The game is slated for 5 p.m. at Carlsbad. Both teams are in the newly created eight-team Open Division. The Lancers entered the week ranked No. 2 in the county, while Poway is No. 10.

third came just weeks after the second in an off-the-field incident. “Everyday I need to be really careful because if I do get hit in the head it is now way easier to get another concussion.” It has been nearly 10 months since Renken’s last concussion. The road back to the soccer field was not an easy one, physically or mentally. But she persevered and has done more than even she could have imagined in her first year at the varsity level. Renken entered this week leading the team in points (15) and goals (seven). She dominated up top against Poway last week, scoring twice in a 3-0 Nighthawks victory. It was the team’s third straight win. For her efforts, Renken is the Toyota of Poway Athlete of the Week. “I am really surprised,” Renken said of her early success. “I have always had a knack for getting the ball to the back of the net, but I wasn’t sure how things were going to work out when I came back. It has been a pleasant surprise.”

Karli Renken, right, scored two goals in Del Norte’s 3-0 victory over Poway last week. She entered this week with a team-leading seven goals and 15 points. Photo by Sherri Cortez Del Norte coach Gary Rossi sure thinks so. He hadn’t seen Renken play before tr youts this year and she was only able to attend one day because she was busy with field hockey. Rossi was set to put her on the junior varsity team, but gave Renken a chance to prove herself in the first varsity game of the season. She scored three of the Nighthawks’ four goals that game and has been dominating ever since. “I really had to work hard
to get my spot,” Renken said. “I still feel like I need to prove myself ever y game because there are so many talented girls on this team that I need to earn my spot every game.” Renken has been relying on her speed and smarts, while she tries to get back to where she was technically before taking a year off from soccer. The 4.00 GPA student lost some of her ball control and one-versus-one abilities. She also is working hard to get back into tip-top shape. “I have been working hard, practicing juggling and hitting
the ball in my backyard,” Renken said. “My agility is starting to come back and I am getting better about being able to last longer and go harder in games.” That could only benefit the Nighthawks, which have not lost since their opener. The team is trying to reclaim the Valley League title and get back to a section title game. “Our goals are to win the Valley League, get to CIF and then get to state,” Renken said. “I know state is kind of a long shot, but we really want it this year.”

He is focused on doing more, especially in his hometown where many of his family and friends still reside. Last year he finished 34th in the Farmers Insurance Open with a score of 3-under. He hopes to have a shot at taking the crown on the final day this year. “My key this year is to focus on the North Course and to have a good round out there,” said Hoffman, a two-time state champion in high school. “I want to get back in the top-10 and have a chance to win here in San Diego, where I grew up.” Hoffman is going to get an extra round of practice in on the North Course this year, as his foundation’s Pro-AM is being held there on Jan. 20. The Charley Hoffman Foundation,
which raises money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the San Diego Junior Golf Association, went over the $1 million mark last year. The two-day event kicks off with a cocktail party and silent auction at The Belly Up in Solana Beach on Jan. 19. The Charley Hoffman Foundation San Diego Pro-AM is held the next day at noon. Cost is $2,000 per player and $8,000 per foursome. Visiting family, friends and hosting the foundation’s events has long been on the itinerary for Hoffman each time he comes to town to play in the Farmers Insurance Open. “It usually doesn’t change much,” he said. Maybe the schedule has not changed, but the hair sure has.
president Brad Holliday said. “We want there to always be a place for our citizens that just want to play for the joy of playing.” The two Poway Little Leagues prefer to have one combined Intermediate Division with games being played at Tierra Bonita, which already has a field mapped out with the proper distances.
District 31-boundary teams in the 50/70 Division will compete against each other to fill out a league schedule. “This is still a work in progress,” Holliday said. “We are trying to get everything established and then we will see how it works two to three years down the road.” District 31 Little League play begins in March.

ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made
POMERADO NEWSPAPER GROUP available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, this information can be obtained from one of the following three companies: LPS Agency Sales & Posting at (714) 730-2727, or visit the Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com (Registration required to search for sale information) or Priority Posting & Publishing at (714) 573-1965 or visit the Internet Web site www. priorityposting.com (Click on the link for “Advanced Search” to search for sale information), or auction.com at 1-800-280-2832 or visit the Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the Trustee Sale No. shown above.
