FFCC leading more opportunities to help in Philippines

RB welcome sign delayed; Now likely later in year BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK A new welcome sign and landscaping along three Pomerado Road medians are in Rancho Bernardo’s future. The welcome sign along Rancho Bernardo Road near The Mercado was to be completed this month, but construction is now tentatively scheduled for late summer or early fall, according to Dean Marsden in the city’s Public Works Department. “Unfortunately, we had an unexpected departure from our design staff and did not have anyone available to work on the design of that project,” Marsden said. “We hope to hire a new designer/drafter sometime after the first of the year and we will work diligently to schedule his/her time to meet the revised schedule deadlines.” The $50,000 project — a replacement sign for one built in the 1960s and demolished in an August 2009 vehicle accident — is fully funded, with $45,367 coming from the insurance settlement and $10,000 of RB Maintenance Assessment SEE SIGN, Page A22

Volunteers and another $15,000 are needed to pack 300,000 meals on Sunday so Friends & Family Community Connection can help those in devastated parts of the Philippines. The Rancho Ber nardobased organization is also seeking monetary donations so it can provide fishing boats and equipment to those trying to rebuild their lives, and send water filters in order to decrease water-bourne illnesses. It also needs donations of overthe-counter medical items so it can ship hygiene and first aid kits. The food packing is set for 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 5 at Westview High, 13500 Camino del Sur in Rancho Penasquitos. As of Tuesday, the event was set to end at 1 p.m. due to current funding for the meals. However, Volunteer Coordinator Tina Socha said she is adding more packing time slots as money comes in to pay for additional meals. The group has enough for 200,000 meals, but if an ad-

Business leaders concerned BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Local business leaders say uncer tainty and questions over government policies’ impact on economic recovery will continue this year. “2014. The big question mark year, or should I say big question marks year?” said Larry McIntyre, Rancho Bernardo Business Association president. “The slow growth over the past five years may continue well into 2014 and possibly beyond according to many analysts. It will not be a breakout year.” Exacerbating the situation is the Affordable Care Act, which had problems in its rollout and left millions wondering if they will have medical insurance, McIntyre said. “The fear that, nationally, millions of people will not be covered by insurance has left small-business owners, their employees, the self-employed and individuals with question mark after question mark,” he said. “The Covered California Exchange may also see millions without insurance.” McIntyre said several RBBA members have called the situation horrifying. In response, RBBA will tr y to help locals gain a better understanding of what the law means to small business through a “Lunch and Learn” seminar led by Janie Ramshaw, a RBBA member in the insurance industry. “She promises a lively no-holdsbarred look at Obamacare that will no doubt affect you, family members, friends and neighbors that are working or own a business,” he said. It will be at noon Wednesday, Feb. 12 in a yet-to-be-announced location. It is free to RBBA members and $15 for

LARRY McINTYRE RBBA non-members. Lunch will be included. Since space is limited, RSVP at 858-451-3406 or MaryS@RBBusinessAssociation.com. “Many business leaders are still confused and not aware of what their options are under the ACA,” said Debra Rosen, San Diego North Chamber of Commerce president and CEO. “And as we welcome 2014, this issue is not going to go away. Businesses will have until 2015 to make some dif ficult decisions and the chamber will remain actively involved in educating the business community about their rights and obligations.” Rosen said this year the chamber’s health committee will look at the issue of aging and what businesses can do to accommodate health-related needs of their aging workforce. One of the chamber’s primary goals for 2014 focuses on finding ways to retain and attract businesses to the region, Rosen said. “It is critical we find ways to address the needs of the region and still remain competitive in an increasingly dif ficult business climate,” Rosen said. For example, she

DOLORES CANIZALES Poway Chamber

mentioned the Linkage Fee that San Diego City Council recently passed and Rosen called “short-sighted.” The fee is to offset commercial development’s impact on the city’s need for affordable housing. “These kinds of policies will drive businesses to relocate to other parts of the county, the state or the country,” Rosen said. “It is damaging for our economy and for our local retailers to lose that kind of business support.” As for other endeavors San Diego North Chamber will pursue, Rosen said a name change is in the works so the organization better reflects its SEE OUTLOOK, Page A20

RB leaders foresee busy agendas BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK

MYSTERY SOLVED — Rancho Bernardo Historical Society President Nancy Canfield said the man dressed as a caballero in this photo taken during Rancho Bernardo’s early days has been identified as a Mr. Moore — first name not known, and a former head groundskeeper at the Rancho Bernardo Inn. Canfield said RBHS members have been trying to identify him for 10 years. The mystery was solved when RB founder Harry Summers and his family, including daughter Linda, recently visited the RB museum where the photo is displayed. Linda identified him, adding she went to his house near Espola Road to ride horses with his daughter, Wendy. Upon inquiry at RB Inn, Canfield learned Moore is deceased, but his daughter is alive. Museum officials would like to speak with her. Wendy — or anyone who knows how to reach her — is asked to contact Canfield at 619-871-9333 or ncanf@san.rr.com.

Rancho Bernardo’s three community government groups’ leaders said their members will continue to work on issues started last year. At the RB Planning Board, two development projects are on the horizon, said Chairman Richard House. “2014 suggests that it will be a much busier time for us now that the Poway Unified School District has recently accepted a bid from a senior care facility to develop senior housing and care facility on the property in Bernardo Heights, commonly referred to as the water tower parcel,” House said. “Currently, the parcel is restricted in use for a public school and/or community park,” he said. “For there to be any modification to this dedicated usage, it will require the blessing of the community, as well as an amendment to Rancho Bernardo’s Community Plan, as well as (the) city’s approval. “Another project potentially looming in 2014 is possibly another amendment to our Community Plan, with that being Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical currently looking for an alternative site within Rancho Bernardo’s industrial park,” House said. Throughout last year House said there was

not much “of significance” for the board to review since the community is built-out. It stayed busy by updating RB’s Public Facilities Financing Plan that targets and prioritizes building, updating and/or improving RB facilities and infrastructure. The board has also been updating its bylaws, but that is on hold until the city completes its update of Council Policy 600-24, which outlines the structure in which all community planning groups within the city conduct business. Policy changes could potentially impact the board’s bylaws update, House said. The RB Community Council plans to continue bringing issues to the attention of local representatives, said President Robin Kaufman. “One such matter we recently brought to the attention of Congressman (Scott) Peters is the high cost of hearing aids, sometimes making them cost prohibitive to many of the residents in Rancho Bernardo,” Kaufman said. “Due to our research and persistence, Congressman Peters reviewed the matter and recently signed as a cosponsor the Hearing Aid Assistance Tax Credit, H.R. 1317. “In 2014, we will be addressing such matters as people abusing the system by saying their dogs are service dogs,” Kaufman said. “We will SEE AGENDAS, Page A22

THE YEAR AHEAD

Leaders identify key issues as new year begins BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Jobs creation, a stronger economy and fiscal prudence are goals leaders at all levels of government said they want to pursue this year. At the federal level, Rep. Scott Peters, who represents the 52nd Congressional District, said there needs to be “an atmosphere that is conducive to job creation. While the budget agreement passed (in December) will provide stability and predictability for the military and federal agencies for the next two years, it must be the beginning of a larger PETERS discussion on addressing our nation’s long-term deficit and debt.” He said there are many issues with broad, bipartisan support. “These include fixing our broken immigration system, reforming the overly burdensome tax code, ending and replacing the foolish across-the-board sequester cuts with smarter cuts and protecting basic scientific research,” Peters said. “Each of these has the potential to create jobs, maintain American competitiveness and grow the economy not just in San Diego, but across the country.” Peters added, “I am hopeful that the bipartisanship seen over the last month in D.C. will lend itself to a more productive and responsive Congress in 2014. Clearly, the San Diego region is primed to benefit significantly when Congress works to promote economic growth rather than fighting partisan battles of years past.”

At the state level, Assemblyman Brian Maienschein, who represents the 77th District, said he plans to continue progress made on proposals in 2013. “Encouraging a strong economy, improving public education and ensuring public safety will continue to be among my top priorities,” he said. “I will also continue to tackle issues such as mental health, homelessness and child safety.” Maienschein said he will advocate for a state budget “that lives within its means.” He said nonpartisan analysts are predicting California will have a budget surplus in 2014 and the economy will improve. The challenge will MAIENSCHEIN be paying down debt and building a rainy day fund instead of spending the surplus as some in Sacramento are wont to do, he said. “If we succeed, we can show job creators that our state has its act together so they can invest in our communities with renewed confidence,” he said. “Our state should also continue to champion tax incentives that encourage growth in all areas.” As for other areas of concern, Maienschein said, “Having an excellent public education system is also key to a strong economy. I will continue to support reforms that improve K-12 classroom instruction so all students have the opportunity to achieve their potential. “In our colleges and universities, I support

efforts to hold the line on tuition so students can focus more on their studies and graduate with less debt,” he said. Early in 2014 Maienschein said he plans to introduce Assembly Bill 1335. If passed, it will give the criminal justice system the tools to prosecute those who sexually abuse people with physical or mental disabilities. “Current law does not adequately recognize the fact that some of these victims cannot effectively communicate to authorities the abuse that was inflicted on them,” Maienschein said. “My bill would change that and increase penalties to further protect our most vulnerable.” As for the county, District 3 Supervisor Dave Roberts said, “(I) am determined to build upon the strong legislative groundwork I laid in 2013.” Roberts said this includes legislation to strengthen mental health services and adoption of foster children. On the job creation and economic development front, he plans to direct as much county business as possible to local vendors. He also wants to improve county government transparency and accessibility. “From public safety to land-use, fire protection to veterans’ affairs — and all other policy areas in ROBERTS between — I look forward to providing outstanding service to residents of the county of San Diego,” Roberts said. The City of San Diego, which will elect a new mayor on Feb. 11, will also be “a big year for

Best Wishes

rebuilding,” according to City Councilman Mark Kersey, who represents District 5. “The progress we made in 2013 laid the groundwork for what will be significant accomplishments this year,” Kersey said. “We will finish the city’s first long-term infrastructure investment plan, complete the first-ever comprehensive sidewalk assessment while overhauling our sidewalk repair policies, and achieve City Council approval of a $120 million infrastructure investment surge that will begin to reverse decades KERSEY of neglect in our streets and other city assets.” Kersey said he plans to help the city’s smalland medium-sized businesses thrive by expanding work with the Brookings Institute’s Global Cities Exchange to increase trade opportunities for local companies and encourage local manufacturing that will bring good jobs to the area. “We’ll also find ways to cut red tape and streamline the way we operate so the city helps, not hinders the small businesses that represent over 90 percent of our local companies,” he said. As for other issues, Kersey said they include helping San Diegans get ready for emergencies through Prepare SD; repairing more local roadways; ending the recreation moratorium at Lake Hodges, which will once again allow windsurfing on the lake; and seeing new sport field lighting installed early next year at Rancho Bernardo Community Park.

The FFCC team while clearing debris from a family’s property. She said the filters are very effective in preventing illness due to contaminated water. On FFCC trips to Tanzania and Haiti, Socha said this is how volunteers get drinkable water in lieu of buying bottled water. “The filters work great and the water tastes better because all the sediment is out,” she said. Due to its simplicity, no replacement parts are needed — only periodical back flushing of the filter. As for how long FFCC’s assistance will continue in the Philippines, Harris said it depends on need. Unlike Tanzania, which for years has received meals, he said meals will only be sent to the Philippines until crops can be grown again. Due to the storm, crops were destroyed and the sodium level in the soil is too high right now to grow anything, Harris said. In addition, it takes at least six months to plant and harvest rice — the primary crop — so he said officials are looking into growing vegetables that would take significantly less time to produce. Harris estimates FFCC meals will be needed for at least nine to 12 months. FFCC’s shipment of 300,000 meals in early December is expected to arrive by mid-January. The Jan. 8 shipment should arrive by late February. FFCC is planning another Philippines team trip in May. For details on joining, go to www.ffccsd.org.

Poway High grad making return trip to help in Philippines BY EMILY SORENSEN A Poway High School graduate has returned to her “second home” to help out with relief efforts after Typhoon Haiyan wreaked havoc on the Philippines. Katrina Lettang, who graduated from Poway High School in 2009, has developed a rapport with the Philippines ever since her first trip there two years ago, working in health clinics in rural jungle villages. Now, she’s back at a place she calls her second home for the first time since it was devastated by the typhoon in November. Lettang has twice visited and spent time doing medical mission work in Tacloban City, through the nonprofit group Volunteer for the Visayans, once two years ago and again in August. Though she didn’t plan on returning to the Philippines so quickly, Lettang headed back on Dec. 31 to spend a month providing relief assistance. “I’m feeling a compelling need to see my second family and friends, and to contribute to the effort,” said Lettang the day before she left. “I feel it’s important to give the people the best care they can get.” Lettang, a pre-med student at Oberlin University in Ohio, where she is also earning a degree in music, fell in love with the Philippines by chance. “It was really random,” said Lettang. “I wanted to travel and see what health care is like in another country, and I wanted to visit Asia since I had never been.” After searching for an organization that she

felt would have a positive impact for the community, she chose Volunteer for the Visayans, and traveled to Tacloban City, where she helped with organization, and developed an interest in public health. “My relationship with the Philippines is lifelong,” said Lettang. “After graduation, I plan to move there for six months to study public health and the impact the typhoon has had.” Lettang said she is possibly thinking of moving to the Philippines after graduating from medical school. Medicine wasn’t Lettang’s first passion. A talented trombonist, Lettang was studying music when she attended a lecture on breast cancer that awoke her interest. “I realized that I wanted to impact people’s lives on a different level than just art,” said Lettang. “I wanted to interact with people on a one-on-one level, and make them happier and healthier.” Lettang isn’t sure what she’ll be doing on her trip to the Philippines. “It’s up in the air right now,” said Lettang. “I think I’ll be coordinating search and rescue, helping with body recovery and doing some translating. Whatever they want me to do.” Whatever it is she’ll be doing, it will be seeing her second home again, post-typhoon, that will be the most difficult. “I consider this place my second home. Walking down the street and seeing a different horizon will be very powerful,” said Lettang. “I’m not sure how I’ll react. The community has been greatly battered.”

Bad Breath? Bleeding gums? These are common symptoms of gum disease. Gum disease is an infection of your gums caused by bacteria in plaque and calculus. This bacteria can not only infect your gums and teeth, but your gum tissue is a prime entry point for oral bacteria to reach the body’s circulatory system. Research over the last several years has shown a link between gum disease and an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and preterm births. The good news? Gum disease is preventable! Here are three simple steps to reduce the risk of gum disease: 1.Proper daily brushing and flossing.

2.Limit snacking between meals to avoid food buildup. 3.Visit your dentist regularly for routine exams and preventative treatment. At Oak Tree Dental, we are passionate about patient education – and that means reinforcing the importance of proper hygiene habits at each and every visit.

Kris Pinto, RN, BSN The 40’s, 50’s and 60’s are a time of subtle, but gradual changes in facial aging. We start to look tired, drawn and begin starting to pull our skin upward in the mirror to see how much different we might look. We want to look the same, just more rested. The thought of a “facelift” is frightening, the downtime out of the question in our busy lives, and the cost is enormous! Some very safe and simple treatments are available that brighten the face, can take years off and have little or no downtime. Due to high consumer demand, costs have become relatively affordable. 1. Botox, between the eyes and crow’s feet brightens the eyes and

lifts the brows. 2. Juvederm, a dermal filler, in the nasal labial folds and marionette lines softens your overall look. 3. Sculptra, an injectable collagen stimulator, is like a facelift! With minimal down time and less than a quarter the cost of a facelift, results are so gradual no one will know. Look at a picture of yourself, 5-10 years ago, that is what Sculptra will do for you!

THE YEAR AHEAD

NEWS BRIEFS

PUSD working on Common Core, new campus BY EMILY SORENSEN The Poway Unified School District will be moving full steam ahead with both the implementation of Common Core State Standards, and the opening of Design 39 Campus in the new year. “In 2014, PUSD looks forward to continuing its history of excellence in our community by supporting, encouraging and adapting with our students and staff members to facilitate their success,” said district spokeswoman Jessica Wakefield. The district will continue its implementation of Common Core throughout 2014, including pilot testing of Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) testing, beginning in the spring, as well as continuing to focus on further developing and teaching critical reading, writing and math skills based on Common Core State Standards, while continuing to focus on preparing the district’s students for college and career readiness, said Wakefield. “In 2014, the community will see PUSD’s ongoing commitment to Ca-

reer and College Readiness; that remains unchanged,” said Wakefield. “However, some things will look different. If you were to visit a PUSD classroom in 2014, you would see and hear a different style of questioning from teachers, and deeper, more thoughtful responses from students. Homework assignments will also look different and you will see more project-based learning.” Wakefield also acknowledged that the district was aware of the controversy surrounding SBAC testing, which will replace current standardized testing in schools. “We recognize that there is currently much discussion regarding the future of state assessments here in California and the proposed Smarter Balance Assessment program. While there remains a certain level of uncertainty around these efforts, there is one thing we know for certain; here in PUSD we measure the success of our ‘preparation efforts’ in a variety of ways, and will continue to do so,” said Wakefield. The district will continue to use multiple assessments to measure student success — not just the SBAC assessments — including

SAT and ACT, AP course success rates, completion rates of required classes, and Measures of Academic Performance (MAP) tests to measure individual students’ growth in reading and math, according to Wakefield. The district will also be hammering out the details of how it will spend the $7 million in funding received from the state for use in implementing Common Core State Standards, which must be used in a 24-month period. PUSD has committed to using 55 percent for staff development, 30 percent to instructional resources and materials and 15 percent to technology infrastructure, hardware and support. Another new change for the district in 2014 will be the longanticipated opening of the Design 39 Campus, the district’s newest (and possibly last) school. Design 39 Campus will be PUSD’s only K-8 campus, and will be located in Del Sur, next to Del Norte High School. The school is on track to open in August 2014, in time for the 2014-15 school year. Design 39 Campus will also have a preschool. The campus will initially open

for preschool through sixth grade, and will expand to eighth grade in subsequent years. Enrollment for Design 39 Campus will begin in February. “The [Design 39 Campus] team is designing learning experiences with the individual learner in mind. As a collaborative community [Design 39 Campus] will nurture creative confidence, practice design thinking and inquiry, connect globally, use technology and the tools of the information age, and promote the courage and growth mind set necessar y to change the world,” said Wakefield. Design 39 Campus is considered optional enrollment, and will be open to students who live in participating Community Facilities Districts (CFD), also known as Mello Roos, who funded the construction of the campus. Families living within participating CFDs may choose to attend their neighborhood school or have the opportunity to participate in the selection process for one of the limited seats at Design 39 Campus. Those interested in finding out more should visit www. design39campus.com.

OPENS SATURDAY

Landscapes, equestrian art on exhibit at Poway Center BY EMILY SORENSEN A Poway artist will be taking the Poway Center for the Performing Arts back to nature with her month-long art show, opening Saturday, Jan. 4. Linda Graham, a recent addition to Poway, is the first artist of the new year to be displaying her art at the Poway Center for the Performing Arts, something she couldn’t be more excited about. “I’m so excited,” said Graham. “I’ve always wanted to see all my work on display at the same time.” Graham will be displaying about 70 pieces of her work, which will include both original paintings and limited edition prints of some of her sold pieces. Graham’s work will be available for viewing beginning Saturday, Jan. 4 through Tuesday, Jan. 28 in the lobby of the Poway Center for the Performing Arts, 15498 Espola Road. Graham’s work was selected as one of 12 artists or groups of artists to be displayed at the PCPA through 2014, and was chosen through a juried art competition. A lifelong artist, Graham was raised in Escondido, and after living out of the state for some time, moved to Poway six months ago. Graham

has previously worked in real estate and in commercial art. “My entire life has been art,” said Graham. “I’ve been painting my whole life.” After spending two years living on a wild horse reserve in Colorado, painting horses, and traveling around for western art shows, Graham said she has a huge inventory she’s eager to display. Most of the pieces she’s showing will be available for purchase. Graham’s show will have three themes, landscapes, whales and horses, including pieces from her collections “Revelation” “All the Kings Horses” and “The Jonah Series.” While Graham said she will be arranging the paintings in such a way as to evoke a journey for the viewer, viewers do not have to follow her path to understand her message. “I want to make people think how individual corrections or hard times lead us to our individual purposes in life,” said Graham. Some of Graham’s best known works are her horse paintings, which often have an element which makes them seem otherworldly. “I have a passion for horses,” said Graham. “[My paintings] are a wonderful journey for horse lovers.” Graham said she designs her work to emphasise the beauty of the art and colors, and to See EXHIBIT, Page A16

EDITORIAL

PUSD agenda change reduces waiting time THUMBS UP to the Poway Unified School District board for adjusting its monthly agenda so that individuals wanting to speak on non-agenda items no longer have to wait a long time (sometimes several hours) before getting their three minutes at the podium. At the December meeting the wait was about 45 minutes. As to the rest of the December agenda: THUMBS DOWN for a school board meeting that lasted four hours, 45 minutes. The meeting star ted at 6 p.m. May we suggest a 9 p.m. curfew? Keeping in mind that most of those involved have already completed a full workday, exhaustion and sore backsides do not contribute to smart decision making. THUMBS UP to the City of Poway’s Community Ser vices staff and the many, many volunteers who put on the annual “Christmas in the Park” celebration on Dec. 14 at Old Poway Park. It was estimated by city staff that about 10,000 people attended the annual event, which is capped off with the arrival of Santa and Mrs. Claus and the lighting of the city’s tree. THUMBS UP to Rancho Ber nardo-based Millennium Laboratories. Since 2007 it has held food drives and other projects to create a culture of charitable giving amongst employees. One recent endeavor resulted in 15,000 teddy bears and other stuffed animals being donated on Dec. 16 to the county so foster and homeless children can be comforted throughout 2014. THUMBS DOWN to the north Poway parents who appear to have permitted alcohol to be served to the estimated 100 teenagers attending their son’s backyard party on Dec. 20. Sheriff’s deputies, responding to a call of cars blocking the road, reportedly found intoxicated teens along with empty beer cans and bottles of vodka all over the yard. Two teens, showing signs of alcohol poisoning, were taken to the hospital. Both parents were reportedly in the house. The father was arrested

and booked on a misdemeanor social host charge. The party was broken up about 9:30 p.m. Imagine had it gone on longer and intoxicated teens began driving home. We also wonder how many parents of the partygoers knew where their teens were that night. THUMBS UP to Poway High band directors Mike Cook and Sylvester Sybilski for granting a request by Titan alum Dan Boyle that he be permitted to conduct one selection at the annual winter band concert. Boyle, terminally ill with Huntington’s disease, wanted to video record the moment for his 5-year-old son. And what a special moment it was. THUMBS UP to all who supported the Dec. 6 holiday party for Rancho Bernardo High’s critical skills class. This includes San Diego police Lt. Bernie Colon, Sgt. Richard Metz, Lt. Sharon Smyth and retired Sgt. Bob Cruz for providing gift cards so Santa Claus could give a gift to the 20 students with special needs. The police officers also made possible the visit by Santa and his helper. Also deserving praise are teacher’s assistant Jan Colon for starting and organizing the party for a decade. THUMBS UP to the Rancho Bernardo Inn employees involved in creating the fifth annual life-size gingerbread house displayed in the hotel’s lobby throughout the holidays. This includes Pastr y Chef Margaret Carvallo who led the four-member baking/decorating team and the engineering department staff that constructed its structure. This year’s version, a 9-foot high and 12-foot wide house, required 5,760 pounds of ingredients plus 50-plus pounds of candy decorations. THUMBS UP to Casa de las Campanas residents Bob Anttila, Mike Ginger, Ir v Kelley, Al Rouben and Ken Waters for spending the past year crafting handmade wooden toys the old-fashioned way. In December they donated 350 toy cars, trucks, tractors, motorcycles and planes they made in Casa’s Hobby Shop to the Marine Corps’ Toys for Tots program.

GUEST COLUMN

Sign petition to save jobs in San Diego By Jerry Sanders

I

’m writing on behalf of the Jobs Coalition to share some important news and to ask for your help as we work against the clock to try to protect jobs and San Diego’s middle class. Our campaign is to collect signatures to overturn the San Diego City Council’s decision to raise taxes on businesses by approximately 375 to 750 percent. We have less than a month — until January 23 — to collect 34,000 valid signatures of voters living in the City of San Diego. Once we do, the council will have to rescind its ill-conceived decision or put the issue before voters in June 2014. We need your help to make this happen: We need you to sign our petition, and we need you to encourage your friends, family and co-workers to do the same. Petition gatherers will be stationed outside grocery stores and shopping malls around the City of San Diego. This jobs tax could easily push us back into an economic recession. It will SANDERS certainly cause some businesses to scale back or eliminate expansion plans, which will reduce job growth. Other companies will take their business — and local jobs — elsewhere and many more simply won’t consider moving to San Diego. At a time when our economy remains fragile, we cannot afford to put jobs at risk. This jobs-killer also is a zombie tax because it will continue to automatically increase year after year without any review or approval by elected officials. A narrow 5-4 City Council majority approved this massive tax increase to pay for subsidized housing. Unfortunately, while the hit to businesses and jobs is severe, the impact on San Diego’s subsidized housing is minimal. In fact, the most optimistic projections show this tax increase could generate 100 units a year, but there are more than 45,000 families waiting for subsidized hous-

ing. It’s time to find real solutions. Members of our coalition put forth more than 20 alternative funding recommendations and policy reforms, none of which were seriously considered or forwarded to the City Council for action. So I urge you today to join the Jobs Coalition — representing more than 50 regional businesses and organizations, including the San Diego Chamber, EDC, BIA, NAIOP and BOMA — to overturn this jobs-killing tax. More information is available at www.stopthejobstax. org. Sanders, the former San Diego mayor, is president and CEO of the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Prepared to defend Democrats Marie Woodruff likes to send negative letters about Democrats. I, too, live in Rancho Bernardo, and in future I hope to send a negative letter about Republicans in response to each of her letters. George W. Bush and Dick Cheney lied about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and got us into a war that is still going on. The war in Afghanistan is the U.S.’s longest war and over 6,000 people have lost family members because of their lies. I am 71, so I have been alive for six Republican Presidents. Nixon resigned and Reagan just continued being an actor his whole time in office. George W. Bush was by far the worst of the group. By the way, my copy of “The Prophet” does not contain the quote that Woodruff said JFK plagiarized, and RFK did say he was quoting George Bernard Shaw and she got the quote wrong. The quote in the play was “you see things; and say, ‘why?’ But I dream things that never were; and I say, ‘Why not?’” She did get Shaw’s play right, but I think RFK improved on the quote.

The scions of privilege

n the morning of May 16, a 19-yearold San Diego driver was involved in a head-on motor vehicle collision in which the driver of the other vehicle was killed. The 22-year-old victim was a handsome young man named Nick Hart. Nick graduated from Poway High School in 2009 and was on his way to a funeral at the time of the accident. Subsequent investigation by police determined the driver of the other vehicle was operating under the influence. In October, Timothy Theodore Barnette pleaded guilty to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and DUI and was sentenced on Dec. 13 to six years in state prison. Nearly one month to the day after this senseless tragedy, a 16-year-old boy from the Fort Worth, Texas, area, driving his pickup truck after having left an evening party with friends, struck and killed four people who had stopped to assist a disabled motorist on the side of the road. His own passenger was also severely injured, with brain and spinal cord damage. The investigating officers determined that the driver’s blood alcohol content (BAC) was .24 percent, three times the legal limit of .08 percent. The driver, Ethan Couch, pleaded guilty to multiple counts of manslaughter and was sentenced to 10 years of probation, along with a one-year stay at an in-patient treatment facil-

Barry Cronin CONSIDER THIS ity in Newport Beach. The treatment reportedly will cost approximately $500,000 and is being paid for by his parents. Couch’s defense attorney successfully argued that his client should not go to jail because he was a victim of “affluenza,” a phenomenon in which these scions of power cannot be held fully accountable for their actions as their lives of wealth and privilege render them incapable of discerning right from wrong. As I mentioned in a previous article concerning crime statistics, I pounded my first police beat back in 1975 and have spent much of my adult life in the law enforcement profession. Consequently, I tend to follow these stories closely and find myself sometimes viewing the same event through somewhat different lenses. From what I have read, the overwhelming reaction to date from my fellow citizens regarding

the Couch sentencing has been one of outrage. Understandably so. My initial thoughts, however, were more concerning the precedent case law that has been established by this decision as well as the long-standing, negative perception on the part of the public that has just been reinforced, that being that our criminal justice system is not fair and that there is a double standard. As a result of this court decision, we now have a legal precedent in which children of the rich and powerful who misbehave and/or commit crimes can cite “affluenza” in an effort to hopefully avoid punishment. Poor kids and middle class kids cannot. The fact that it is not a binding precedent is irrelevant. The fact that it may not actually work again is also irrelevant. The precedent exists, but only the elite may employ it. Even worse than that is the damage to the credibility of the criminal justice system that this decision will cause. Our system is supposed to be fair and impartial, with due process and a presumption of innocence for all, regardless of social standing. The outrage over this decision will eventually fade away. The precedent and the perception will not. Cronin is a Poway resident and the assistant police chief at MCAS Miramar.

GOP’s Hispanic outreach another futile exercise

G

ive the Republican Party credit: After drawing fewer than 23 percent of Latino votes in the last presidential election, the GOP will now spend $10 million nationally trying to build permanent ground organizations and “a year-round presence” in Latino neighborhoods around the nation. But also recognize that this is strictly tokenism: You don’t sway the nation’s fastest-growing ethnic voting bloc by spending less on it than on many campaigns for a single seat in Congress. You also don’t win over Latinos simply by saying you’re going to be hanging around their neighborhoods and pestering them from time to time. And you don’t win over Latinos or any other ethnic group simply by recruiting candidates “who look like them,” one of the nostrums pledged by Jim Brulte, the onetime state senator who now chairs the California Republican Party. Nope, there appear to be only two ways for the Republican Party to win even close to half the Latino vote (about 73 percent of Hispanics cast ballots last time for Democratic President Barack Obama). One is to run a celebrity candidate a la Arnold Schwarzenegger. Each time he ran for governor, he pulled almost half the Latino vote, chiefly because (exit polls showed), many youthful Hispanics thought having the “Terminator” as governor was cool. Trouble is, there are no prominent celebrities now publicly evincing interest in running as Republicans for any office. The second way to win over voters — and Latinos are no different than others — is to take policy positions congruent with their views. The GOP isn’t doing this, either. Its members in the House of Representatives have bottled up the Senate’s immigration bill, even though the plan’s pathway to citizenship for the undocumented is extremely arduous, for about six months, knowing full well it would pass if it ever came to a vote. They’re still in denial about climate change. They do what they can to thwart abortions. And so on and on. They believe their stances are congruent with most Hispanic voters on almost all issues except immigration, where many of their leaders are on record saying that unauthorized immigrants all are criminals who cost the American taxpayer billions of dollars.

Thomas Elias SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FOCUS But polling by the usually reliable Latino Voices firm has found in the last year that Latinos back measures to limit greenhouse gases and climate change, while also favoring abortion on demand and strict gun controls. Plus, several surveys have found Latinos — like other voters — mostly blame Republicans in Congress for last fall’s lengthy government shutdown and the brinksmanship over whether to raise the national debt ceiling or risk defaulting on bonds and other loans. So the GOP assumption about Latinos eventually joining them because of their adamant stances on social and fiscal issues does not fly. But it’s immigration that hurts Republicans most. One Latino Decisions survey last summer found that about three-fourths of U.S. citizen Hispanics have either a family member or close acquaintance who is undocumented. Legalizing those people is their No. 1 issue. Even some Republicans realize this. Lanhee Chen, a fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution who was presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s policy director in the 2012 campaign, told a reporter the party’s message “is going to be very difficult to convey unless we can demonstrate some seriousness about solving the broken immigration system.” That’s an understatement. The typical GOP outreach effort in recent years has been to eat an enchilada in a Mexican-American neighborhood while listening to a mariachi band. But Jennifer Korn, the Republican National Committee’s deputy political director for Hispanic initiatives, told a luncheon last fall that the new GOP outreach is different from past ones. “We’re starting early…and we’re going to stay even after the (2014) election is over,” she said. That’s little more than a repeat of the usual Republican whistling past the Latino graveyard. For the party will win over very few Latinos unless it invests much more and changes some of its fundamental positions.

Another bad restaurant experience

E

very business lives or dies on the type of service it provides, right? So why would anyone deliver bad service? This question was prompted after venturing into a local sandwich shop and receiving some of the worst service I’ve ever been exposed to. That’s something, considering I hail from the land of the stereotypical rude waiter. My daughter and I were rushing to rehearse for the Rancho Bernado High School Madrigal’s Dec. 7 Disneyland performances. We sought food that was fast and filling, but got neither. Despite the franchise’s reputation for good management, quality service and tasty food, the sandwich-maker was so flighty that our order took 15 minutes. Our 12-inch sub was cut in half, then switched for two other sandwiches. Both were inedible. The gentleman preceding us was also displeased since his pastrami sandwich lacked mustard. The manager/cashier barely mumbled an apology. My family, Pastrami Man, and six other customers all seemed equally unimpressed. Don’t expect any of us in that store anytime soon. Now let’s examine your business. Are good quality people trained for key positions, or do you blame Obamacare or the schools for your inability to find good help? Recognize that customers want to hire a service or buy an item, and your problems aren’t their concern. If you won’t arrange conditions that provide good help delivering on customer needs, sales prospects will go

Rob Weinberg ASK MR. MARKETING

elsewhere. In other words, customers care about WIIFM: What’s In It For Me? Selfish, perhaps, but also realistic. That’s why Pastrami Man didn’t want excuses, he wanted mustard on the sandwich. He took those little packets of mustard handed to him because the “help” seemed incapable. His comment as he stomped out of the shop: “This is stupid!” So regardless of what you sell, deliver what’s wanted and move to quickly placate unhappy customers. Failure to do so will irretrievably damage your reputation, both immediately and over Yelp, Facebook, and the rest. And never forget that the customer is always right, even when he’s wrong. The sandwich shop manager apparently forgot this, assuming he ever knew it. I predict his bottom line will suffer over time. One day he’ll either get it, or will work elsewhere. If he’d worked harder up front, this column wouldn’t be necessary. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

service area and business interests it represents. The group will continue working on statewide issues that significantly impact San Diego region businesses, such as recent changes to Worker’s Compensation base rates and the Bay Delta project that could result in water rate increases. The chamber will also expand the Think Local First initiative it launched last year and continue efforts to educate the public and local jurisdictions on how spending locally supports the area’s economy and makes it thrive. “Many businesses are beginning to come out of what has been a very difficult few years due to the downturn in the economy, not only locally, but throughout the region and country,” said Dolores Canizales, Poway Chamber of Commerce president and CEO. “While some businesses have just barely survived the recession, others seem to be thriving. These smallbusiness owners understand there are key elements that can assist during difficult economic

times.” Canizales said factors include the ability of business owners to develop trust among clients, buyers and customers; cultivate long-standing relationships through trust, excellent customer service and strong ethical business values; and be innovative and creative. “With increased use of technology in the workplace and in marketing, small-business owners must be able to flex quickly and attempt new and innovative methods to increase business,” Canizales said. “While change is often difficult, the ability to embrace creatively and to take risks will set most businesses apart.” She said the Poway Chamber plans to help members by providing educational programs that focus on technology and marketing. It will also continue offering networking opportunities and plans to coordinate with other chambers in the county to address statewide and regional issues.

Who let Santa down this year? “Oh, woe is me. I ordered a gift from Amazon on Dec. 23 and it didn’t arrive until the 26th. My Christmas was ruined, I was embarrassed and humiliated. Amazon promised delivery by Christmas Day and they lied to me.” Well, Sir or Ma’am, tough! You, and countless millions of other procrastinators this year, waited until the last minute and then expected a miracle. Yes, Amazon, FedEx and UPS were caught off guard with the unexpected growth in online sales and they fell behind, but it wasn’t another stock market crash or real estate bubble bursting. Too many people expected too many miracles in too short a time. Does this ruin Christmas? Not in my book. You miss a gift, make a card up and tell the recipient a surprise awaits; be patient. Don’t threaten class action law suits, boycotts and other acts of vengeance. Chill out, enjoy the holidays and get over it. Christmas isn’t supposed to be about presents anyway! ***** Speaking of vengeance, boycotts and class action lawsuits, the reaction to Target stores’ computer data being hacked and debit card numbers being stolen was over the top. Yes, the crime was hellacious and threatens many. Now I am no fan of megacorporations but I am certain Target did not intend for this to happen during the hottest shopping time of the year. Apparently, they have not scrimped on security or been negligent; they just got hacked by someone smarter than their system. When Suzanne and I heard about the Target problem, we took our debit cards to our bank, they cut them up, issued new cards with new numbers and PINS. Problem solved. We didn’t call a lawyer, picket Target or demand revenge. We got on with the holidays. Christmas isn’t supposed to be about debit cards anyway!

Bob Emery MY TOWN ***** On a sad note, the Ramona Grasslands Wildlife Institute is closing its doors after over 20 years of “Hawk Watch” and other activities on behalf of endangered species. Apparently, Executive Director Dave Bittner ran afoul of state and federal wildlife management agencies by exceeding his authority and illegally capturing, banding and transporting hawks and other birds without the proper permits. Bittner appeared to have fallen into the oldest trap of nonprofit service: the “big head.” That is, you work for an organization for so long and become so involved, you become the organization. You make or ignore the rules. Bittner did good for years but apparently stumbled on his own importance. What a shame. ***** Finally, as I write this piece the Chargers are trying to give away their last chance at a playoff bid. Wait, can this be happening? The Chiefs miss a field goal. The Chargers score first in overtime and hold the Chiefs! They are going to the playoff? There is a football god somewhere. This I know because my beloved San Diego State Aztecs won the “Famous Idaho Potato Bowl.” How embarrassing would that have been to lose to Buffalo University in the “Famous Idaho Potato Bowl” in Boise, Idaho? Besides, Suzanne wouldn’t let me go to Boise because it was 11 degrees three days before the game. Emery is a retired teacher and former Poway City Council member.

District funding allocated in fiscal year 2010. Also fully funded and given the green light to proceed is the Pomerado Road medians nor th of Rancho Bernardo Road project. The $899,900 endeavor will feature conversion of three existing raised asphalt medians along Pomerado Road between • Camino de la Gallardo to Pomerado Court, • Pomerado Cour t to Pomerado Place, and • Pomerado Place to Grandee Place. The Rancho Bernardo MAD Committee — which oversees maintenance and improvements for certain areas and medians in the community — has been allocating money toward this project for many years. Between the fiscal years 2010 through 2014 budgets, $899,840 has been set aside for the endeavor. The project’s tentative timeline has the design completed in fall 2014 and construction set for December 2014 through July 2015. In December, Rancho Bernardo Community Council gave city staff approval for the proposed design, which Marsden called a “Mediterranean

The proposed Rancho Bernardo welcome sign. palette” of plants. “There will not be any stamped concrete,” he said. “The median will have crushed granite mulch with accent boulders.” He said the medians will be similar to those on Pomerado Road near the entrance to Pomerado Hospital. “The difference is that those medians have less plant coverage than our project proposes and their plant palette is more native while ours is Mediterranean,” he said. The proposal calls for 70 to 80 percent coverage that includes a mix of small, medium and large shrubs; low spreading succulent groundcover and trees. The proposed trees are Australian willow and western redbud. Large

shrubs would be blue hibiscus, manzanita, tree mallow, New Zealand flax and copper canyon daisy. Medium shrubs are wormwood, dwarf callistemon and blue sage while small shrubs are soap aloe, coral aloe, aloe vera, English lavender and Perez’s sea lavender. The accent shrubs are foxtail, deer grass and dwarf New Zealand flax. Groundcover would be large lavender scallops, blue chalk sticks, trailing lantana and trailing rosemary. Per the presented plans, there will be a 2-inch layer of decorative crushed rock, each tree will have two deep-root tree bubblers and all shrubs, accents and groundcover irrigated with a rigid piped drip irrigation system with flexible

PVC riser and two drip emitters per plant. Groundcover areas will have drip irrigation. The fiscal year 2015 proposed RB MAD budget — which needs to go before the City Council for final approval — shows no increase in the $22 annual assessment rate. This is the fee assessed to single family homes in their property taxes. Multi-family complexes, retirement facilities, commercial properties and parcels owned by the city or school district are charged a rate according to a formula. Most Rancho Bernardo properties are assessed, with the exception of those in Bernardo Heights, which are not part of the MAD and property owners pay fees through their HOA. The budget projects expenses of $504,836 and revenues of $601,263. The year-end operating reserve is set at $209,009, close to the maximum reserve allowed — a six-month operating budget of $252,418. The budget also shows one allocation for the community’s capital improvements program — $150,000 set aside for a future CIP identified as “Asphalt to Landscape Phase II (Pomerado Road north of Rancho Bernardo Road).”

fields and gym, she said. This includes upgrading a portion of the sports fields’ lights and installing additional lighting on one of the softball fields. In addition, Grigoriev said the council will fund enhancements and repairs to the basketball courts and the sports fields. “This summer we will be offering two free Movie in the Park events, which are perfect family activities and we are continually reviewing and adding classes and sports activities to the recreation center’s public programs so that we can offer more to our community,” Grigoriev said. “Some of our current programs are dance classes, karate, basketball, gymnastics, art (and) lawn bowling, to name a few,” she said. “We encourage everyone to check out the program listing current events and activities, which is posted online and can be picked up at the rec center.” All three groups are looking for new members. The planning board is accepting candidate declarations through Jan. 31 for its March election and the community and recreation councils will be holding elections in June. Any adult living in RB at least 30 days is eligible.

Agents from Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Rancho Bernardo.

CB office continues support of library For the ninth consecutive year, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Rancho Bernardo agents have provided financial support to the Rancho Bernardo High School library. The idea to commit an often-overlooked need was spearheaded by Realtor Gwen Thompson. To date, the agents of Coldwell Banker Rancho Bernardo have contributed approximately $4,770 to the high school’s Friends of the Library. This year, some 30 agents gave a total of $635, thereby bolstering the library group’s mission to provide books, online databases and part-time staffing to the library. The library houses 45,000 volumes and serves 1,300 student per day. The agents’ donations add to the FOL fundraising income whose expenditures enable the library to stay open before school, during lunch and after school. Their funding also makes it possible for Benn von Wistinghausen, teacher-librarian, to instruct more students in research techniques and evaluation of sources.

PREP GIRLS BASKETBALL

Michael Bower FROM THE BENCH

WINTER HAS TRANSLATED TO WINNING FOR LOCALS

Y

ou just spent the entire last month battling through shopping malls to find that perfect gift, visiting with family members over some great holiday food and completely ignoring anything related to the world of prep sports. The Bench did just about the same ... except that last part. Not even a four-day stay in the below-freezing temperatures in Oregon and the excitement of The Bench’s six-month old daughter ’s fir st Christmas got in the way of tracking every move of the local teams over the winter break. It’s a good thing The Bench paid attention because those that didn’t sure did miss a ton. The amount of winning that has been going on has been pretty ridiculous. The Bench has been so impressed with all the early success, it is going to go out on a limb and predict at least four local winter teams will be crowned section or division champions come February and March. And so you don’t have See BENCH, Page B2

‘THE BRONCO WAY’ New philosophy helps revitalize proud program BY MICHAEL BOWER Seven seasons have gone by since one of San Diego’s legendar y high school coaches, Peggy Brose, stepped down as leader of the Rancho Bernardo High girls basketball program. The Broncos lost one of the best, as Brose collected 521 wins and three section titles during her illustrious coaching career, which included time at Mt. Carmel before she moved over to Rancho Bernardo when the school opened in 1990. Brose, who is currently the Broncos’ athletic director, went 16-12 in her final season as a coach in 2006. Rancho Bernardo has had three

ing. For the first time in life after Brose, there are signs of a promising future. Signs that third-year coach Kai Har-

ris’ yearning to get the program back to its glory days will come to fruition. “It’s very exciting,” said senior guard Kathy Rudkin, who has endured the rough times when she easily could have bolted to concentrate on lacrosse, the sport she will play on scholarship at Syracuse University. “Obviously, the last two seasons have been pretty rough and basically a rebuilding time for us. So, to finally have lots of success is exciting. I am excited to see what this team can do.” It was a struggle to get to this point. Harris went 2-22 in his first season and 6-20 in his second. He could have thrown in the towel, but he continued to keep at it. He often picks the brain of Brose, soaking up her coaching philosophies and integrating them with his own. “She has just been an outstanding mentor for me,” Harris said. “I basically had a lot of ideas of what I wanted to do and she is the one that taught me and is still teaching me how to piece it See BRONCOS, Page B4

It is one of the most prestigious crowns in the nation to own. Sergio Enloe helped Poway clinch the championship by winning the 138-pound title. The senior, who is ranked No. 4 in the state at 152 pounds, was one of three Titans to ear n All-American status.

Poway boys getting it done on the cour t and pitch: The Titans’ boys basketball team has already proven they have the ability to play with the top teams in the section. That means a section crown for the first time since 1992 is not out of the question. Senior point guard Tom Erb has been dishing out assists all season long. He was even leading the nation in the categor y at one point. With guys like Dalton Soffer, Tyler Green, Zach Salafia, Matt Robinson and Matt Beeler finishing, it’s easy to see why Poway is off to a 9-5 start and took second place in the Governors Division of the Under Armour Holiday Classic. There has been just about as much scoring going on over on the soccer field at Poway, where the boys have been finding the back of the net with ease. This is one of the most exciting Titans teams in recent history, as they have piled up 34 goals in their first 10 games and captured the San Diego High Tournament title over the holidays. The Titans have reached the section semifinals four straight years. This could be the season they finally get to the finals. **** Poway girls hoops staying strong : The Titans’ girls basketball team has gotten strong play from their veterans and young stars. Sophomore Maria Pieroni has taken on the bulk of the scoring responsibilities, helping Poway get of f to a 9-4 start. She was named to the All-Tournament team at the Kiwanis tournament. Point guard Sierra Claudio has filled in nicely for the graduated Mandy Castro and senior Brooke Hulett has gotten healthy and is contributing on the boards and with scoring. Poway closed the 2013 year with two straight victories in the SoCal Holiday Classic.

POMERADO NEWSPAPER GROUP PREP BOYS BASKETBALL

PHS falls just short of tournament title BY MICHAEL BOWER The Poway High boys basketball team was hoping to end 2013 by achieving something it has not accomplished since 2007 – win a tournament title. But refusing to let it happen was the No. 1-ranked team in Hawaii. Punahou of Honolulu denied the Titans the championship trophy of the Governors Division in the Under Armour Holiday Classic Monday night at Carlsbad High, using an 11-3 run over the final 3:30 to pull away from Poway for a 59-52 victory in the championship game. The Titans (9-5) had come out on the right side of every close game in the tournament up to that point, beating Aliso Niguel 57-54, then Lincoln of Oregon 77-73 and Escondido 74-72 in a doubleovertime thriller in the semifinal. But Poway went four minutes in the fourth quarter without a basket in this one and turned it over far too many times in the final few minutes against the smothering, high-intensity pressure defense of undefeated Punahou (15-0). “It’s always tough to lose when you feel like you let something slip out of your hands,” first-year Poway High coach Scott Fisher said. “We know we are capable of playing better than that, especially down the stretch.” Punahou went 12-for-15 from the free-throw line, including 10 of 12 in the fourth quarter to put the game out of

Meanwhile, the Titans were just 4-for-13 from the charity stripe, including an 0-for-2 performance in the final period. Dalton Soffer finished with a doubledouble, scoring a game-high 25 points and grabbing 11 rebounds for Poway, which reached its first tournament

championship game since losing in the Mt. Carmel Holiday Classic title game in 2008. The Titans took a 49-48 lead with 4:07 to go after a Tyler Green layup, but that would be the last basket they would score until Tom Erb’s 3-pointer with six seconds left to play. Punahou’s full-court pressure defense led to a few easy baskets and the Titans were never able to regain control. When Fisher was asked if he thought other teams from the San Diego Section will take note and bring more full-court defensive pressure, his response was: “I hope so, because we are going to be more prepared.” The game was close throughout, as it was tied on five different occasions and the lead changed hands 13 times. It was tied at 29 at halftime, as Soffer’s 14 points helped offset the five 3-pointers by Punahou in the first half. Poway held its biggest lead of the game at 42-37 with 36 seconds left in the third quarter. But Punahou kept charging hard and eventually tied the game at 45 after a nifty no-look pass and layup with 6:20 to go. “This tournament was a wonderful experience for the boys,” Fisher said. “We played four close games and they are learning a lot of lessons about what it takes to succeed. We are not quite ready yet, but all these games have things in them that we can talk about and improve on for next time.”

together. She let me into her playbook. I try to meet with her as often as possible. She has been a huge support for me and the girls.” Developing an identity for the basketball program is the first thing Harris attacked after being appointed head coach. He took the time to learn about the community, the kids and the parents. This year, Harris coined a term for what he has been applying since the beginning: “The Bronco Way.” The creed goes like this: “I will pursue athletic excellence with great character, competition and commitment by holding myself and my teammates accountable. I will pursue every endeavor with honor and remember that no one person is better than the team. This is my team. I am a Bronco.” Every member of the team needed to memorize those four sentences, now tattooed into the foundation of the program. Harris will often have the players recite the lines during a practice or before

games. The meaning goes much deeper than the actual words. “It is a pledge to be someone,” Rudkin explained. “To not only be a good player, but to play with honor and to stick up for teammates and be responsible all the time on and off the court. His plan is to make sure girls are not only learning basketball, but things about life and I think that is his major goal.” Harris explains it even further. “It’s something they can take and use in their life for their career or to start a family or to use in college,” he said. “They are not going to remember the proper defensive stance or the drills we do in practice, but they will always remember how we made them feel. And that is what The Bronco Way is all about — teaching them about how to get through life.” Of course, behind any great coach are usually great players. Harris will be the first to tell you this year’s group is extremely talented. Rudkin is one of three players averag-

ing double-digit scoring. Senior Cassy Cunningham and freshman Ally Murray are the other two. Rancho Bernardo was put in Division III in the new competitive-based divisions for the San Diego Section playoffs. It might be far-fetched, but the fact that winning the crown is even in the players’ heads is a huge step forward. “We do have our mind set on winning the CIF finals,” Rudkin said. “I know it is a long shot, but we really do have that goal of winning it.” Either way, the program appears to be on the rise. Harris has earned the respect of his players by hanging around through the tough times to make it happen. “I am thankful and impressed with the coach he has developed into, because he did not give up on us,” Rudkin said. “I love how he is taking the initiative to rebuild this program.” A program that hopes to one day get back to the top behind the principles of “The Bronco Way.”

chance to be a finalist for an award for player of the year,” Martell said. “...I was shocked and happy at the same time when I found out.” Martell, who had a verbal commit to the University of Washington before Huskies coach Steve Sarkisian bolted to USC, was the first freshman in Poway High history to start every game at quarterback. The 5-foot, 11-inch, 180-pound signal-caller threw for 2,137 yards and 19 touchdowns, while adding 881 yards and 11 TDs on the ground in youth and high school games, according to a press release issued by the U.S. Army AllAmerican Bowl. Other players nominated are: Cameron Akers (QB/ RB, Mississippi), DeJuan Ellis (QB, Mar yland), Richard LeCounte (safety, Georgia), Dylan Moses (RB/LB, Louisiana) and Lindell Stone (QB, Virginia). Martell will be participating in the Eastbay Youth AllAmerican Bowl on Sunday at the Alamodome in San Antonio. The game pits the country’s top seventh-, eighth- and ninth-grade talent against each other. Poway High freshman receiver/defensive back/kick returner Tyjon Lindsey is also playing in the game. The two Titans are the only two representatives from California on the roster.

with goal scorers so Berry has been splitting time between midfield and forward. But his teammates often ask Titans’ coach Eugene Morris to let the youngster play up top. “It is great to know your teammates believe in you even though you are a younger kid,” Berry said. “Especially because I see them play

and I believe in them. I am just doing my part and my teammates are just consistently getting me good passes. I would be useless without them.” Berr y’s ability goes far beyond physical. In fact, he will be the first to admit he is often not the fastest or strongest player on the field. Instead, he relies on outsmarting his oppo-

nents while he continues to grow and gain speed. “He is a smart player,” Morris said. “He knows where is on the field and he can just turn around and hit a shot from 20 yards. He can do a step over, turn and cut and hit the ball right in the corner. He is just a goal scorer and we love him. He has a positive

attitude and he is a great role model and leader.” Berr y gives credit to his older brother, Alejandro, for making him into the soccer player he has become. Berry says Alejandro introduced the game to him back in Spain and has been giving him tips ever since. “(Alejandro) was always playing

soccer with me,” Berr y said. “He comes to the games and will tell me what I should do better and what I need to do to improve. He helps me develop as a player. I love having him at the games.” And Berry has often returned the favor with plenty of thrilling goals to watch.

Del Sur holiday lights judged by students

THANK YOU — The Rancho Bernardo Kiwanis Club bell ringers wish to thank the community for donating $3,217 in the Salvation Army kettle at Vons this year. More than 30 Kiwanians participated in the Dec. 13 and Dec. 14 event. Among them were, from left, John Sleeper, Janet Atkin and Larry McCulla.

Jewish Academy in Sulam 2.0 San Diego Jewish Academy will participate in Sulam 2.0, which addresses the unique needs of day-school boards. The program was launched by RAVSAK: The Jewish Day School Network in partnership with The AVI CHAI Foundation. The Carmel Valley school is the only one in the San Diego area selected to participate. Sulam 2.0 is the only program of its kind, working with leading day schools to explore the intersection of great governance, great leadership, and great Jewish values. Each of the schools selected for this project is sending three board members to receive consistent, high-level support, helping to champion top-level Jewish board governance in their schools. For more information, email Program Director Orlee Turitz at orlee@ravsak.org.

Del Sur held its second annual Del Sur Lights contest on Dec. 6, recognizing the best-decorated and most spirited homes in the neighborhood. In collaboration with Del Sur Elementary School, Del Sur invited 10 students to participate as this year’s judges. The students, Alexi Thijssen, Joseph Zhai, Ian Von Dyl, Katja Zimmer, Ian McKenna, Leo Zimmer, Isabella Sarralde, Olivia Brogdon, Linh Nguyen and Zahir Ahmed, are fifth-graders who excel in reading. Twice a year, students at Del Sur Elementary School participate in the Principal’s Reading Challenge, including the fall reading challenge that just concluded. The top 10 fifth-grade students who exceeded their individual reading goals this fall were chosen to serve as judges for the holiday lights contest organized by the Del Sur Community Services Council. “Being able to recognize some of our top readers through the Del Sur Lights

Votes were based on originality, brightness and holiday spirit. Pre-

pared to impress this year’s strict panel of judges, Del Sur residents pulled out all the stops with terrific light displays, music, hot cocoa and trays of cookies. The winning house went to the Starr family at Del Sur who greeted the student judges with music and treats. The winner of the contest was announced the following night during a community-wide holiday gathering at the Del Sur Ranch House. Del Sur Elementary School

and nearby Del Norte High School participate in several Del Sur events throughout the year, including Del Sur Lights, the Del Sur Fall Festival and Del Sur’s summer/ concert movie series. Del Sur Elementary is ranked No. 1 in the Poway Unified School District based on 2013 Growth Academic Performance Index (API) scores.

Individual genome sequencing will become part of any treatment Imagine trying to treat pneumonia with insulin. Pretty quickly, you’d decide that pneumonia is hard to treat or insulin isn’t much of a drug. Neither conclusion would be true, of course. Pneumonia is effectively treated with antibiotics. Biosynthetic insulin saves the lives of millions of diabetics daily. The point, as my colleague Dr. Razelle Kurzrock often says, is that a drug’s effectiveness depends upon matching it to the right disease or target. This might seem obvious, but often it is not the case. New cancer drugs and therapies, for example, have long been developed in large, lengthy, expensive clinical trials where success is measured by improvements that last only a few weeks. What happens to drugs and treatments that don’t have a widespread effect but do provide deep, perhaps profound, benefit to a few patients? Typically, they’re abandoned. The overarching goal is to create therapeutics with the broadest, most-profitable bang for the buck, not necessarily therapeutics with the greatest efficacy. Drugs and treatments that help only a few patients are considered inefficient and cost-prohibitive. They are orphaned and often forgotten. This hard reality of medical science is nowhere more apparent than in cancer, a villain that morphs into hundreds of henchmen. There are more than 200 types of cancer — from breast cancer to Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. Each type presents its own challenges. A treatment that works in some

Dr. Scott M. Lippman FRONTLINE: CANCER patients won’t in others, even if they have the “same” cancer type. As I’ve mentioned in previous columns, personalized cancer medicine is a fundamentally different approach to addressing this challenge. It fashions therapies and medicines based upon the precise, particular circumstances and needs of each patient. It’s one reason why individual genome sequencing will become, in the not-too-distant future, a routine part of any treatment. With a detailed clinical, social, genetic, genomic and environmental biography of each patient, doctors can more precisely tailor treatment to each patient. This is medicine matched down to the molecule. To achieve this kind of precision requires serious basic research. Massive cancer genome sequencing efforts by governmentfunded consortia, such as The Cancer Genome Atlas and the International Cancer Genome Consortium, reveal a dauntingly complex landscape of DNA sequence changes in tumor cells. It turns out that tumors from patients with

the same cancer can look completely different at the genomic scale. Clinicians and researchers need to think differently about how to diagnose and treat cancer. They must think genomically. Our understanding of the human genome is still in its infancy, but early results indicate that personalizing drugs based on the list of DNA alterations in a tumor can be very successful. Clinicians, basic scientists and bioinformatics researchers across the mesa are tackling this challenge together. They come from The Scripps Research Institute, the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, J. Craig Venter Institute, UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center and the San Diego Supercomputer Center, which houses some of the most advanced computing resources in the world. Research resources at all of these institutions, such as cell sorters to isolate rare cancer stem cells and high-throughput machines to sequence tumor-cell DNA, are integral to this effort. This work in cancer genome sequencing will be invaluable to us in building a robust, world-class system that matches each new cancer patient with the latest molecular technologies and therapeutics most likely to achieve the best, fastest results. Quick intervention is critical. More than 90 percent of all cancer deaths are due to metastasis, the spreading of cancer from its original tumor site. The impetus is to find what works based upon individual patients,

not upon broad cancer types. It is essential to design a protocol that makes every patient a clinical trial of one. Dr. Kurzrock has developed just such a protocol, called PREDICT, or Profile-related Evidence Determining Individualized Cancer Therapy. She is implementing such a protocol at Moores Cancer Center. Before coming to San Diego, Dr. Kurzrock had earned wide acclaim for developing one of the largest and best phase 1 clinical trials programs in the nation at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Hallmarks of that program were innovative clinical trials with new, targeted therapies, and matching patients with drugs based on their molecular profile. Now she is building on this effort in the new Center for Personalized Cancer Therapy, a major initiative of Moores Cancer Center. This is complex work. It requires extraordinary resources — human, scientific and technological. But as we proceed and progress, we will better learn what works and why. Each patient and every case will add to our armamentarium of knowledge and abilities. That’s how you beat cancer: one patient at a time. Scott M. Lippman, M.D., is director of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center. His column on medical advances from the front lines of cancer research and care appears in this newspaper once a month. You can reach Dr. Lippman at mcc-dir-lippman@ucsd.edu.

Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. Trustor(s): Matthew G Metten, and Brooke A Metten, Husband and Wife as Joint Tenants Recorded: 06/30/05, as Instrument No. 20050553656, of Official Records of SAN DIEGO County, California. Date of Sale: 01/22/14 at 10:00 AM Place of Sale: On the grounds of the Scottish Rite Event Center, located at 1895 Camino Del Rio South,, San Diego, CA The purported property address is: 13725 UTOPIA ROAD, POWAY, CA 92064 Assessors Parcel No. 317-670-41-00 The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $362,800.36. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid, plus interest. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the beneficiary, the Trustor or the trustee. 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 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, you may call 877-484-9942 or 800-280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site www. USA-Foreclosure.com or www. Auction.com using the file number assigned to this case 7042.11649. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Date: December 23, 2013 NORTHWEST TRUSTEE SERVICES, INC., as Trustee Victoria Gutierrez, Authorized Signatory 1241 E.

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 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, you may call, (714)730-2727 for information regarding the trustee`s sale or visit this Internet Web site, https://www. lpsasap.com/, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 9462-0333.

POMERADO NEWSPAPER GROUP internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
