City finances: Bad news, good news BY STEVE DREYER City Council members were officially told Tuesday night what they’ve known for months: that the 2011-12 fiscal year ended in the red. But, in light of the financial uncertainties brought on by the Feb. 1 elimination by the state of the local redevelopment program, closing out the year with a $228,104 general fund deficit wasn’t so bad, Deputy Mayor John Mullin said Tuesday night. “The theme of the budget year has been turmoil,” Mullin said.
City Manager Penny Riley said prior to the meeting the deficit will be easily covered by the city’s ample reserve funds and predicted that the 2012-13 budget will be balanced. That is a change from her prediction last summer that the general fund would be $500,000 out of balance. However, the city’s recent successful refinancing of bonds used to build City Hall will help balance the 201213 general fund, she said. Scott Edwards, the city’s administrative services director, added Tuesday night that the city budget should also be bolstered by a See BUDGET, Page A13

‘Hey, my newspaper is smaller!’ No, the newspaper you are holding is not smaller in size. Beginning this week, your News Chieftain is being printed in two separate sections. A “B” section, with local sports on the cover, is being placed behind the “A” section. Both sections are then “quarter folded” and placed into a bag. In the past, the paper was rolled before being bagged. Although it may seem otherwise, the quarter-fold paper is exactly the same size as before. We hope you enjoy our new two-section format, which should make it easier finding your favorite parts of the paper.

MONTEREY RIDGE
School needs text votes to snag grant Monter ey Ridge Elementar y School needs more text and online votes in order to win a $50,000 grant to create mobile technology labs. The deadline to vote is Dec. 19. One text plus one online vote per email address is allowed daily in the Clorox Power and Bright Future Grant contest. As of Monday, the 4S Ranch school was in fifth place out of 1,595 entries in the explore categor y. Overall, there are 2,500 entrants, with 508 in the play categor y and 397 in the create category. Per the contest rules, seven grants will be awarded — four based on votes and three based on judges’ selection. The entrant with the most votes will receive a $50,000 grant. The three categor y winners determined by vote will each receive a $25,000 grant. The judges’ favorites will also receive $25,000 grants. “We found out about the contest because it was highlighted on a TV show our PTA president saw,” said Sara Tseng, Monterey Ridge Educational

Foundation president. “It’s the first time we’ve done anything like this.” Tseng said parents have been repeatedly asked to vote daily and posters have been distributed throughout the community asking for support. Even Oak Valley Middle School and Del Nor te High School students have been asked to vote, since anyone over
the age of 13 is allowed to cast ballots. “We want them to adopt us because we’re a feeder school,” she said, adding “We’re hoping the high school students will be in tune with it and everyday text.” To vote via cell phone, send text 2560pbf to 95248. Message and data rates may apply. To vote online go to https://powerabrightfuture.clorox.com. “We’re so close we can taste it, but it is hard to move up in the rankings,” Tseng said. If Monterey Ridge wins, Tseng said the grant would go toward an item on the foundation’s wish list — creating a mobile technology lab to enhance learning for the school’s 1,100 students. Per the grant proposal, mobile technology car ts will be shared between classrooms, which are assigned to one of six villages on the campus. If each village has one or two carts, all students will have access to computer technology for three to six hours per week. Tseng said this is needed because the school’s computer labs are aging

and with the mobile labs there will be increased access for students. She said a pilot program with T-Mobile gives teachers access to tablets in a similar fashion. No cost for the mobile lab has been determined, Tseng said. The cart charging stations could cost $500 to $2,500, depending on model selected. A decision has yet to be made on tablets, which could lost $200 to $300 each, versus laptop computers, which range from $500 to a couple thousand each. “We don’t have the money to spend on this yet,” Tseng said, explaining up to now the foundation’s primar y focus has been on supporting the school’s music, art and physical education programs, which she called “vital.” The only other Poway Unified School in the contest is Los Penasquitos Elementar y, which would have the grant go toward the $100,000 in annual operating expenses of its Academy, established in 2000. It is a choice program for third-, fourth- and fifth-grade students district wide and provides four additional hours of classroom time each week and eight extra days in the summer to help the children excel in literacy, science, math and community building. As of Monday, Los Penasquitos was in 517th place out of 1,595 entrants in the explore categor y. To vote for it, send text 2030pbf to 95248 or go to the contest website.

BUDGET
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
modest increase in sales taxes, by the repayment by the county to the city of some redevelopment property taxes and by the placement in the account of unspent stormwater rebate money. While the general fund has run in deficit mode in several prior years, this marks the first time the fact has been publicly disclosed. Riley said that she released the information this year “for the sake of transparency.” In past years, when a general fund ran in the red, capital improvement projects such as street work and wa-
ter and sewer system upgrades were simply deferred for a year, easing the budget crunch. That is not the case this year, she said. The budget deficit was subsidized through the allocation of reserve funds. The general fund had a June 30 ending balance of $18.1 million. In addition, the city has a $3.1 million Economic Uncertainly Fund, which the city built up during a succession of strong fiscal years. It also has $4.48 million in a Street Maintenance Fund and $2.4 million in a Pension Stabiliza-
tion Fund, according to Scott Edwards, director of administrative services. Governor Jerry Brown and the Legislature abolished hundreds of local redevelopment agencies on Feb. 1. Since Poway had no employees assigned full time to redevelopment tasks, portions of their municipal salaries were financed though the general fund with redevelopment property taxes. Also, the state prohibited the former redevelopment agency from repaying loans it made from the general fund.
The tree-lighting ceremony will be at 5:20 p.m., led by Bob Emery, and Santa Claus will arrive on the train, escorted by the Shadow River Regulators, at 5:30 p.m., for visits and photographs (photos with Santa are $5). Throughout the event, the gazebo will play host to carolers and traditional Christmas music, including performances by the Tierra Bonita Elementary School choir and the Black Mountain Middle School choir. Poway High School’s Die Lieders choir will close out the evening with a performance of holiday music. In St. Nick’s Workshop, kids can make holiday ornaments to help decorate the community Christmas tree or their own tree, as well as Christmas cards. Kids and playful adults can also play traditional games in the Nelson house, and sing along to Christmas songs with the piano in the Poway Historical Society museum. Make sure you come with an empty belly to Christmas in the Park, as a wide variety of favorite holiday foods will be available for purchase, including hot chocolate, tamales, apple pie, ginger snaps, and many more holiday sweets and treats. “The food is doubled this year,” said Dave Richards, recreation supervisor. “Come hungry.” The celebration also features face painting, a petting zoo, a craft sale featuring handcrafted holiday gifts and square dancing performances. The train will be running, with rides available for a nominal fee. There will also be an N Model train display available for viewing. Co-sponsored by the City of Poway, Christmas in the Park is possible thanks to the support of the volunteerbased Old Poway Park Action Committee and sponsors including ER Management, The Home Depot of Poway, Neal Electric, Stamping Details and Walter Andersen Nursery.

Mt. Carmel High student named Senate Youth Program alternate (CNS) — A Mt. Carmel High School senior was selected Monday as a first alternate delegate for California in the U.S. Senate Youth Program. Those selected for the program receive a $5,000 college scholarship and a one-week, expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., to study the federal government. Anna Page, who has a 4.22 grade-point average, plans to serve in the Army and is hoping for a future in politics. The black belt in karate is a student member of the Poway Unified School District Board of Education, youth director on the California YMCA Youth & Government board and a member of the Rancho Penasquitos Town Council. She is also the president of her school’s National Honor Society and has been an intern in the offices of a state senator and an assemblyman. “No matter how I achieve my goal, my desire to create a better America will never change,” the teen wrote in her USSYP application. “I am confident in the future of America, and I want to be among the
ANNA PAGE group that positively impacts our country.” State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson picks two delegates and two alternates for the program from a pool of highachieving students initially nominated by their principals. The nominations are reviewed by a state Department of Education panel. The four students are scheduled to be recognized by the State Board of Education during its January 16-17 meeting in Sacramento.

Signs that your parents may be slipping (Editor's note: This week we debut a new monthly column by longtime San Diego journalist Marsha Key Seff offering advice to baby boomer generation readers who have aging parents.) While opening presents this holiday season, you might be in for a disquieting surprise. Because you can’t return it, you must begin to accept the fact that your beloved parents are slipping. Like most of us adult children, you probably were counting on them remaining healthy forever. Well, a few lucky ones do, but most don’t. And they’ll be depending on you, even if they proclaim they’re not, to look out for them as they once did for you. Welcome to the ups and downs of caregiving. The good news is that you’re not alone. About one in four adult children — and climbing — is a caregiver to some extent. So you will find lots of comfort and support from others who have received the same present in past years and have begun figuring out ways to care for it, nurture it and continue to enjoy it despite the inevitable ups and downs. If you’re wondering why you didn’t realize your parents were beginning to have problems until holiday time, don’t be too hard on yourself. You cannot easily sense problems during telephone calls and short visits
Marsha Kay Seff THE CAREGIVERS’ JOURNEY and your parents probably were going to great lengths to hide the fact that both their memories and health were slipping. So holidays are a common time for adult children to find out what’s really going on. Being together with you now for an extended time has made it impossible for them to continue to keep their secrets and for you to continue to ignore the little tell-tale signs that something is wrong. But don’t panic. With a little planning, you can offer them the priceless gift of your understanding and willingness to pitch in. Sometimes, just a little intervention and help from you or a professional are enough to ensure their independence and accustomed lifestyle for years more. So while you’re partying, look out for red flags that signal it might be time to step in: • The house is in disarray and there is spoiled food in the fridge. • The mail has piled up and bills have gone unpaid.
• Your mom has worn the same dress or your dad the same shirt for days. • Your parents have been ignoring longtime friends and activities. • The medicine cabinet is full of expired prescriptions. • Your mom or dad keeps repeating stories, but can’t recall what they did this morning. • Your parent is calling family by the wrong names. (Well, we’ve all been there; this, in itself, isn’t cause for too much alarm.) • Your mom has forgotten old family recipes. • Mom forgot to cook the turkey and it’s still frozen. The point is that recognizing the problem is a good start. You might offer to help their pay bills, set up medical appointments and act as the designated driver, or hire a maid or professional caregiver. Just don’t let the realization that things are changing interfere with your holiday fun and traditions. This is a great time to make as many new memories as you can.

A place for everyone to call home THUMBS UP to the Poway City Council for its continued commitment to provide housing opportunities for low- and moderateincome families. Meeting on Nov. 14, the council began the process of updating the housing element to the city’s General Plan. By the time the process ends in April, several new parcels may be identified as good sites for affordable housing projects. While the city is no longer in a good financial position to develop the parcels, the hope here is that private and nonprofit interests will step up in coming years. THUMBS UP to retired Poway residents Janice and David Katz for pledging to leave $2 million of their estate to the UCSD Center for Pain Medicine. The center’s state-of-the-art methods relieved Janice Katz of debilitating pain and allowed her to playing golf and tennis and traveling around the world. THUMBS UP to 15-year-old Sammy Lizarraga, a Poway resident and Rancho Bernardo High sophomore, who is collecting filled Christmas stockings for military personnel stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait. This is the second time she has organized the project inspired by her brother who is serving overseas. Three years ago 639 filled stocking were donated by locals.
Her goal this year is more than 800 stockings. The deadline to donate a filled stocking and/or supplies such as hygiene items, snack foods and playing cards is Saturday, Dec. 8. Bring to 15135 Amso St. in Poway. For questions about what is or is not acceptable per military regulations or to make a monetary donation to cover shipping costs, contact her at SammysStockings@ cox.net or 858-602-6336. THUMBS DOWN to the idea of starting the holiday shopping season on Thanksgiving night. Several big box chains opened their doors as early as 8 p.m. Call us old fashioned, but 12:01 a.m. Black Friday is soon enough to start the shopping frenzy. THUMBS UP to Poway Unified School District board member Linda Vanderveen, who steps down this month after 12 years following her Nov. 6 election defeat. The Poway resident was passionate in her belief that all PUSD students should have access to quality facilities. However, as board president, she was out front in her support of the controversial capital improvement bonds used by the board to finance the school campus improvements she felt were badly needed. Vanderveen was well liked and respected among her peers in public education and her presence on the board will be missed.
Kudos to councilman I was walking down Poway Road on Nov. 25, past a neglected lot where Wendy’s used to be. As I approached, there was a car parked partway onto the sidewalk. I was annoyed at first thinking it was someone parking there and going to the Salvation Army Store, until I noticed it belonged to someone who was cleaning up the vacant lot. He was clearing debris and trimming some of the foliage on the property. As I got closer, I realized that it was Councilman Dave Grosch. No crew helping, no cameras for photo ops. Just a citizen who cares so much for his community that he is willing to get dirty and sweaty to make sure it is taken care of. Thank you, Councilman, for your willingness to serve Poway in the many ways you do. It is very much appreciated by this citizen.

I disagree with your recent “Thumbs Down” given to City Hall for taking down Gary Vineyard’s triplewide campaign signs. Campaign signs have been getting bigger with every election and I don’t appreciate the visual blight they create. I am glad that we have laws to limit their size. While Vineyard may have found a loophole in the law, he clearly violated the spirit of the law. This doesn’t speak well of his character or fitness for public
office. I am disinclined to vote for “My-Sign-Is-Bigger-ThanYour-Sign” candidates in general and that went triple for Gary Vineyard.

Traffic endangers students Traffic around schools can be extremely frustrating for parents and surrounding neighbors, but do we compromise our children’s safety for the sake of a few minutes? The City of San Diego created two lanes out of what used to be just one lane in order to alleviate traffic congestion in the afternoon at Creekside Elementary School, 12362 Springhurst Drive in Sabre Springs. The lane closest to the children is 8 3/4 feet wide. A Honda Odyssey is 7 feet, 4 inches wide, including side mirrors. Large SUVs are even wider. If the SUV is in the middle of the lane that means there is 8 inches of space between it and our precious children. There is no protection against incoming cars going 25 miles an hour, and that’s if they are obeying the speed limit! One slip of a toddler’s foot can mean death. A side view mirror has actually caught a child’s backpack. Mothers with wide strollers can not pass one another on the sidewalk without stepping into the street. It truly is an accident waiting to happen.

Whose tax dollars are they, anyway?
key question has raged in California for more than one year, ever since Gov. Jerry Brown first proposed two of his key tactics in the ongoing battle against seemingly perpetual state budget deficits. That question: Who do tax dollars really belong to? There are also these corollary questions: Are taxes collected by cities the exclusive property of those cities? Do dollars sitting in special state funds earmarked for particular uses belong to all the people, thus implying they could be used for anything state legislators think best? These questions are in the forefront of debates over state finances today because of the storm over the summertime revelation that the state Parks Department was sitting on more than $30 million in a special off-road vehicle fund, plus another $20 million in its Parks and Recreation Fund even as park units were threatened with closure. They are valid questions, with good arguments on many sides. For some special funds get their money from virtually all taxpayers and/or utility customers, while others are funded strictly by one type of user. The Beverage Container Recycling Fund is an example of the latter. Only people who buy certain kinds of drinks pay into this fund. Purchase only milk, bottled wine and hard liquor and you won’t help fund reimbursements of bottle and can deposits, nor will you help pay for the education and outreach effort that has caused a remarkable 85 percent of all recyclable containers to be turned in. That was 17 billion containers out of an eligible 20 billion in 2010-11. At a nickel or dime per can or plastic bottle, reimbursements are supposed to use up almost
O
Thomas Elias SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FOCUS nine of every 10 dollars paid into the fund. But state controller’s records showed at midsummer that the fund had an unreported, uncommitted balance of $113 million. Should that money be available for other state programs or should it simply sit in a bank account and draw interest? That’s a key question now, when some other special accounts like the Energy Resources Surcharge Fund — all utility customers pay a little into this one each month — also have multi-million dollar balances that are not spoken for. Brown’s view and that of the majority of state lawmakers plainly is that these excess money in these pots of tax or fee dollars should be open to uses other than what they were collected for, if only because it’s almost impossible to refund some of those dollars because there’s no way to track who paid into the funds. Beverage recycling money is a classic example of this. Which brings the discussion to the two Brown tactics that started the discussion: His move to disband local redevelopment agencies, with the bulk of their funding going into state coffers, and his prison realignment effort, which is sending tens of thousands of supposedly low-risk convicts from prisons to county jails, where many have been paroled because of
space problems and county budget shortfalls. No, neither of these moves has led any city into bankruptcy, despite the claims of some that the demise of redevelopment agencies would lead to disaster. In fact, the main reason for city defaults has been the collapse of the housing market, which led to lower property taxes, lower sales taxes as homeowners stopped remodeling, and making swimming pool and air conditioning purchases, while greatly diminishing virtually all other forms of city revenue. Brown’s idea was that the increased property taxes paid on newly redeveloped property should not be used just to buy up more land for redevelopment, but rather that those tax dollars belong to everyone. So far, courts have upheld this concept by going along with the redevelopment cuts. But cities won’t stop bleating. Their advocates write op-ed pieces claiming lack of redevelopment money has caused most of the immediate troubles of Stockton, Compton, San Bernardino and other cities nearing bankruptcy. That, of course, ignores the reckless pension contracts agreed to by those cities and their public employee unions, plus myriad other forms of mismanagement. When housing activity was healthy, all that was papered over, and maybe it will be again someday. But not just yet. As things are now going, only a voter initiative appears likely to reverse the trend of tapping both wealthy special funds and local tax dollars for uses the Legislature and the governor deem higher priorities than those for which they were originally collected.

Parents need to call it the way it is
ne of the hardest concepts for parents to understand is the mindset of a teenage addict. How — despite all things seemingly going wrong — can someone still make poor choices with their life especially when all arrows point toward a path of, at best, an unhappy and unhealthy life? Drugs and alcohol, poor school performance, attitude or defiance of rules in the home are all symptoms of addiction. Yet one of the hardest concepts for parents seems to be the “If my teen just [gets a job] [plays a sport] …” idea. Getting a job or playing a high school sport is great but will never address an issue of addiction. This combined with treatment at the proper time, sure; as a substitution, never. Yet I have had this discussion every week for more than 15 years with parents and it’s always the same reasoning. “My child is so down it helps their self-esteem. I know that they aren’t happy (or they are depressed) and this helps them.” This simply isn’t so! Healthy self-esteem comes from not just accomplishing something like a job or being a varsity athlete, but having the integrity and character to accompany
Will Wooton THE STRAIGHT DOPE these acts. Core internal values produce a healthy sense of self-worth and only then can you add in external acts to build self-esteem. Without the first, the second will never last. Lying, stealing and cheating are the makeup of addiction. If your teen does these things, no amount of practices or paychecks will change that. Proper treatment is needed. Call it the way it is. Does your teen steal? Then they are a thief. Do they lie? Then they are liars. Do they manipulate to achieve what they want without thought or care for others? Then, and most parents don’t like to believe this, your teen is a scumbag. No parent wants to believe this about their child but must force themselves to step away from their
parental role and hopefully see the truth. Now no one has ever explained to me how working or sports changes being a scumbag. How can you build self-esteem when you live only for yourself and devalue others? You can’t. Yet, if you look at addiction, this is exactly what it does — changes good people into liars, thieves and manipulators — and no amount of after-school activity will change that. The good news is that great treatment can change these behaviors. Breaking down a person’s defenses to address the real core issues are what it is all about. Challenging these behaviors through reality and confrontation is the only way to break the cycle. Overprotection and giving excuses to your child’s behavior only makes it worse. Self-esteem will happen once integrity returns. Allow your teen to hit bottom and get the help they need. Don’t shield them from their actions and, at all costs, don’t justify their behavior.

PowPAC offers a theatrical gift with 'A Christmas Cactus' BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK
Cactus O’Riley (Rhiannon M. Jones) and Stuart Windsor (Daniel Sky). Photo by Tony Eisenhower
The combination of a mystery, ability to right a possible wrong, attempts to fool an overbearing mother plus REVIEW h i n t o f r o mance add up to a delightful holiday comedy playing through Dec. 22 in Poway. “A Christmas Cactus” presented by PowPAC, Poway’s Community Theatre, has the perfect mix of talented actors who ably portray the skills and comedic timing needed,
plus an enjoyable script and appropriate stage setting and costuming. The play written by Eliot Byerrum has the flavor of hard-nosed private detectives of decades past, but in this case the detective is a slightly cynical, matter-of-fact type of woman, Cactus O’Riley (Rhiannon M. Jones). She is considering giving up her agency of a year, but not excited about the alternative — working for the district attorney’s office as an investigator. Her sidekick is secretar y Fred Booker (Craig Merker),
an optimistic and possibly bit naive young man who wants to keep the agency open. On a Christmas Eve in Los Angeles — the year is never revealed, but could be the ‘40s, ‘50s or present day reflecting a bygone era — Cactus and Fred are ready to close up for the holidays when taken hostage by two escaped convicts, Neville Smedley (Michael Adler) and Ramon Ramirez (Randy Coull). Neville arrives wanting to see Jake Marley, the detective whom he claims framed him for embezzling the city.

Learning he has died and Cactus has taken over, Neville demands she go through the files and prove his innocence. Ramon, in custody for being an illegal immigrant, seized the opportunity to escape when their prison bus got into an accident. He just wants to be reunited with his pregnant wife. His background in literature, especially his love of Charles Dickens, has the potential to shed light on the mystery. Confounding the situation is the sudden appearance of Fred’s overbearing mother, Adelaide (Shirley Coggon), who is not permitted to leave, but cannot learn the truth. All involved must make her believe this is a surprise mystery party set up for her and not a hostage situation with a real crime to solve. Further complicating the situation is the arrival of deputy district attorney Stuar t Windsor (Daniel Sky), who holds a torch for Cactus, wants her to work for him and quickly realizes Neville and Ramon’s true identities. All but Merker — in his stage debut — are PowPAC veterans. Jones and Sky appeared last summer as the romantic leads in “Getting Sara Married.” It’s been awhile since Adler, Coggon and Coull graced the PowPAC stage, in Coull’s case almost 10 years. Jones seems perfectly cast
for this type of role, which seems similar to her portrayal of Sara last summer. Sky is also well-suited and plays an intoxicated man believably. Last time his character had bouts of amnesia. Since their portrayals in both shows are similar, this reviewer looks for ward to seeing them return to the PowPAC stage, but in roles that let them demonstrate their full range of acting abilities. Booker is successful in carefully walking the line between being annoying (as called for) and an annoyance to the audience. Adler and Coull found the right balance between being intimidating, gun-totting thugs and likeable, sympathetic fellows. Merker seemed a bit stiff and pretentious, but given his acting inexperience did a remarkable job in keeping pace with his well-seasoned cast mates. A few more plays should help him be more natural on the stage. “A Christmas Cactus” can be seen at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 2 p.m. Sundays through Dec. 22 at PowPAC, on the second floor of the Lively Center, 13250 Poway Road in Poway. An elevator can be accessed from the parking area behind the building. Tickets are $15. To purchase, contact the PowPAC box office at 858-679-8085 or boxoffice@powpac.org.

Southern California Ballet performs 'Nutcracker' Dec. 15, 16 in Poway BY ALEXA MAUZY-LEWIS The beloved holiday tale, “The Nutcracker” is coming to the Poway Center for the Performing Arts on Saturday, Dec. 15 at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. and on Sunday, Dec. 16 at 1 p.m. performed by The Southern California Ballet. This timeless production tells the stor y of a young girl, Clara, who is given a magical nutcracker doll on Christmas Eve and with him embarks on a wondrous Christmas adventure. “This year’s Nutcracker will not disappoint with some new choreography to showcase our dancers’ talents,” said SCB Artistic Director Sylvia Palmer. “It is a holiday treat for the whole family.” In addition to public performances, the company also performs four outreach shows for disadvantaged children to expose them to the art of ballet. “The SCB is committed to educate and entertain our local community,” Palmer said. The SCB Ballet is composed entirely of North County San Diego dancers, many of whom reside locally in Poway, Rancho Bernardo, and 4S Ranch. Among them is rising star and Del Norte High School student Shaina Oppenheimer, who will be dancing the role of Clara.
POMERADO NEWSPAPER GROUP
Oppenheimer was one of eight students selected to represent the United States in the 2011 International Cecchetti Ballet Company in Manchester, England, and has trained at the Black Mountain Dance Centre, the official school of the company, for 11 years. “The best part about working on the performances is being able to not only tell a story but fully immerse myself in the story,” Oppenheimer said. “I enter a different world and get to experience things that don’t happen in everyday life.” Tchaikovsky’s classic score and spectacular costumes and sets designed by Catherine Hand are only part of the magic of San Diego’s holiday tradition. “I think the audience will enjoy the story of the Nutcracker because it combines the joy of the holidays with ballet — something no other ballet does,” Oppenheimer said. “It follows the story of a little girl who is taken on a magical journey, something that draws the attention of many kids. It’s easy for them to relate to Clara as they experience the same excitement of watching the various dances.” Tickets for “The Nutcracker” can be purchased at the Poway Center for Performing Arts box office, by phone at 858-748-0505, or on the Poway Center for the Performing Arts website, powayarts.org.

California's Controller to speak at State of the Region luncheon in RB BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK
JOHN CHIANG
Start off the new year by learning what is in store economically for California and the local area during the annual State of the Region luncheon. This year’s event will be on Thursday, Jan. 10 at Sony Electronics, 16535 Via Esprillo in Rancho Bernardo. It begins with networking at 11:30 a.m. followed by the luncheon and speakers from noon to 1:30 p.m. It is organized by San Diego North Chamber of Commerce. Cost is $49 for SDNCC members and $69 for non-members. RSVPs are required at www.sdncc.com or 858-
487-1767. The keynote speaker will be California Controller John Chiang, who has been asked to speak about the state’s economy during this past year and project what the economy is likely to look like in 2013, said Debra Rosen, SDNCC president and CEO. Chiang was elected to be the state’s chief fiscal officer in 2006 and re-elected in 2010. His goals were to “weed out waste, fraud and abuse of public funds and make the State’s finances more transparent and accountable to the public,” according to his website. Methods he has advocated included reforming the state’s public pension
systems, helping local governments navigate complex requirements under economic constraints, protecting the state’s natural resources, ensuring more than $2.1 billion in unclaimed property was returned to the rightful owners and launching financial and tax assistance seminars for families, seniors, small businesses and nonprofit organizations. Chiang earned his bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of South Florida and law degree from Georgetown University Law Center. Prior to controller, he was an IRS tax law specialist, an attorney in the State Controller’s Office and ser ved two
terms on the Board of Equalization, including three years as chairman. Also speaking will be Erik Bruvold, National University System Institute for Policy Research president, and Joe Ahn, regional manager of government and public affairs for Northrop Grumman’s Aerospace Systems sector. Both will address the chamber’s recently released Unmanned Aerial Vehicles report, an assessment of the UAV’s impact on San Diego’s defense economy. According to the report, 86 percent of the UAV industry has an economic impact in Rancho Bernardo, Poway and surrounding area.

NOT SUPERSTITIOUS — Poway Kiwanis Club members opened umbrellas inside the Hamburger Factory prior to a recent talk by Channel 8 weatherman Shawn Styles, left, with program chairman Bob Krans. There were no reports of bad luck following the meeting.
Event raises $5,850 for hurricane victims Kaminski’s recent fundraiser for Jersey Shore Hurricane Sandy victims garnered $5,850, which was sent to the Salvation Army and will go directly to hurricane victims. The fundraiser was held Nov. 9-11. Kaminski’s donated 25 percent of their gross revenue for that weekend, which was about $5,150. Another $700 was donated by customers. The Poway restaurant, which is the West Coast Kaminski’s, teamed up with East Coast Kaminski’s in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, to help their neighbors.

Brian Maienschein became an assemblyman on Monday, stating his priorities are to make California a more businessfriendly state and to protect education funding. “I am really looking for ward to being sworn in,” the 43-year-old Carmel Mountain Ranch resident said on Friday. “I’m excited to represent my community.” Maienschein was elected to a two-year term last month to represent the state Assembly’s 77th District. It includes Poway, Rancho Bernardo, 4S Ranch, Carmel Mountain Ranch, Sabre Springs and Rancho Penasquitos. The district is one Maienschein knows well, having lived in the area since childhood and graduating from Poway High. Though a Republican, Maienschein said he has “always been somebody who worked with those of both parties to get things done.” The former two-term San Diego City Councilman representing District 5 (2000-2008) was most recently the United Way Commissioner of the Plan to End Chronic Homelessness. He earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of California Santa Barbara and juris doctorate from California Western School of Law. He is the divorced father of two elementary-age daughters, Taylin and Brenna. “There’s a number of things in California that increases bureaucracy,” Maienschein said when talking about ways to make the state more business-friendly. “For example, there are more than 500 commissions. Not all need to exist. We can save taxpayer money and reduce regulation as well.” After taking office, Maienschein said he will be able to speak more about his methods to protect education funding too. Maienschein said there are many ways to reduce expenses and be more efficient. As an example, he mentioned Project 25, which he created while at the United Way. Through the effort, the most expensive chronically homeless were identified and with the help of various agencies, the cost of long-term housing and services for them were consolidated and reduced from $7 million to less than $2 million. “If we can do (something similar) on a wide scale we can solve problems and save money,” he said. As for other issues, Maienschein said he is interested in improving fire prevention and opposes the high-speed rail

Afterward it will likely be relocated to the Rancho Bernardo area. His chief of staff will be Lance Witmondt, who filled the same post for him when on the council, and field representatives will be Rob Knudsen and Michael Lieberman. Maienschein’s first local appearance as an assemblyman will be at the Conservative Order for Good Government luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, Dec. 11 in the Bernardo Heights Countr y Club. Also speaking will be Congressman Duncan Hunter and San Diego City Councilman Mark Kersey. The luncheon is $20 for non-COGG members. RSVPs are due this Friday.

Girl collects stuffed animals in cousin's memory SERVICENEWS BY EMILY SORENSEN An eighth-grader at Meadowbrook Middle School in Poway has gone above and beyond in collecting over 300 stuf fed animals to be donated to Rady Children’s Hospital in memory of her cousin. Hanna Ramsey, 13, is feeling a little more generous this holiday season, after collecting 311 stuffed animals, thanks to the generosity of her teachers, classmates and family friends. Hanna donated the toys to AJ’s Kids Crane, an annual toy drive for Rady Children’s Hospital run by San Diego radio personality AJ Machado. Hanna was inspired to undertake her stuffed animal collection drive by her cousin, Brittney Wolfe, who received a stuffed dog named

After Brittney passed away at 16, Hanna, then 6, was given Stanley to comfort her. “Hanna was very close to Brittney, and
she was having a rough time [with Brittney’s death],” said Michelle Ramsey, Hanna’s mother. Thanks to Stanley, Hanna was able to sleep through the night again. Hanna previously has tried to donate between 10

The Young Queen may not ride a horse in the Poway Rodeo Practices are scheduled to continue weekly at 6:30 p.m. mostly on Tuesdays at either Midland or Twin Peaks elementary schools. Horsemanship practices will be conducted at the Poway Valley Riders Association, 14336 Tierra Bonita Road. There will be additional meetings scheduled to prepare for the pageant. Contestants must be able to ride well and furnish their own
horse. Some accommodations may be made. This year’s pageant will begin with the Horsemanship Competition at the Poway Valley Riders Association grounds at 9 a.m. Saturday, March 2 and is open to the public. The pageant will be held 5:30 p.m. Saturday, March 2 in Midland Elementary School’s Multi-Purpose Room. All those interested should attend one or both orientations.

and 15 toys to local families in need, but this was the first time she’d tried to collect toys to donate on a mass scale. She had hoped to collect 300 stuffed animals, 100 for each year Brittney battled cancer. She put together a slide show of pictures of Brittney, and her teachers allowed her to show it in class. Hanna and her mother also sent their story and the slide show to Machado, who spoke about Brittney on his radio show and posted the slide show on the show’s website. Hanna hoped for the best, but she and her family were prepared to go out and buy stuffed animals if needed, to make it to her goal of 300. Thanks to the generosity of those who learned of her story, there was no need. “We got bags and bags and bags of stuffed animals,” said Michelle Ramsey. Hanna collected the animals in school and around town, sending the slide show to everyone they knew. “People were leaving stuffed animals on our porch,” said Michelle Ramsey.
In fact, Hanna received such a huge outpouring of community charity that she and her family had to direct some donators to donate their stuffed animals directly to AJ’s Kids Crane, rather than give them to Hanna, as they ran out of room to store the toys. “I was getting texts and calls from people I didn’t even know, wanting to donate,” said Hanna. “My mom was getting messages on Facebook.” As she received the donated toys, Hanna said she didn’t count them, she just “shoved them in a room” at Brittney’s mother’s house, which had been set aside for the purpose of storing the donations. When the Ramseys finally sat down to sort through the donations, Hanna was delighted to discover that she’d cleared her goal of 300 stuffed animals handily. With this donation drive over, Hanna will be taking a bit of a breather before starting up again in January, preparing to collect stuffed animals all throughout 2013 to donate to AJ’s Kids Crane next year.

CIF PREP FOOTBALL
Memorable year ends with loss BY MICHAEL BOWER The ending was not the way the Poway High football team pictured it, but the road to its second straight section championship game was a memorable one. The third-seeded Titans had no answer for Ocean side’s elusive QB Tofi Paopao, who threw for 264 yards and two touchdowns to boost the No. 1 Pirates to a 32-10 victor y in last Saturday’s CIF San Diego Section Division II title game at Escondido High. Papao, a strong-armed 6-foot-1, 200-pound righthanded quarterback, used his legs to avoid pressure and then his arm to deliver the damage time and again. The senior found slipper y slot back Thai Cottrell four times for 99 yards and Jace Whittaker four times for 97 yards, including a 17-yard TD pass that put the Pirates up 26-10 midway through the third quarter. “Tofi is probably the top quarterback in county and he really showed up for them,” Poway linebacker Max Michaels said. “Everything he does: his checks, his arm and his ability to scramble. He is a night-
Poway High's Derek Babiash, left, wrestles the ball away from a Oceanside defender for a 41-yard reception during the Titans' 32-10 loss to the Pirates in the Division II section title game Saturday at Escondido High. Photo by Beverley Brooks mare.” The defending Division I champion Titans were hoping to capture back-to-back section crowns. Instead,
they will have to settle for runner-up to the Pirates, which claimed their eighth Division II championship in the last nine years.
“I am proud of my team,” Michaels said. “I wouldn’t want to be on any other team. Oceanside is just a great team. We didn’t come out on top tonight, but we will be alright.” Poway (10-3) has plenty to be proud about. The Titans, which captured the Palomar League title for the second straight season, had arguably the top defense in the county and ran off eight straight wins before losing in the championship game. One of those victories came against perennial power Helix in the semifinals — a win that cer tainly earned Poway respect from around the county. “We had such a great year,” said senior Poway linebacker Alec Moreno, who is headed to the University of Nevada next fall. “The only way it should have ended was in the championship game. Our team really came together through the season. We really became a family. I wouldn’t have wanted to play this season with any other boys. We had a special bond and played our hear ts out ever y game, and that is why we are one of the top defenses in the county.” See FOOTBALL, Page B3
Ex-Navy SEAL brings workouts to DNHS BY ALEXA MAUZY-LEWIS
Del Norte High girls soccer coach Gary Rossi talks to his team.

According to former Navy SEAL Gary Rossi, fitness is everything. Last year, as the head coach for the Del Norte High girls soccer team, Rossi led the Nighthawks to the CIF San Diego Section Division III finals by keeping his team in top physical condition through a variety of intense core workouts. Rossi’s training methods stem directly from his experiences in the Navy. He incorporates many of the exercises he learned into practices. “It’s all about using your body weight,” said Rossi, who went to the Naval Academy from 1975-1979 before serving in the Navy from 1979-1999. “That’s one thing we focused on a lot in training to get qualified as a Navy SEAL. It’s a lot of pushups, sit-ups to build up their core and a variety of different exercises to get stronger.” See SEAL, Page B3

Renken's fast start sparks Nighthawks BY MICHAEL BOWER Building a successful high school soccer program from the ground up takes patience. Nobody understands that better than Trevor Renken. The senior has been with the boys program at Del Norte High since its beginning in 2009. The team went 0-18-1 in its first year at the varsity level in 2010-2011. The second year it took a minor step forward, finishing with a 2-16 mark. “I would say our team really went through some ups and downs, but we really just went through downs,” said the center midfielder Renken, who has been a captain all four years. “We are really hungry to do something this year.” Starving to do something to put it bluntly. And if the first week of the season is any indicator, the Nighthawks will be chowing down more victories than losses for the first time in their short history. Del Norte opened the first week of play with two victories and a tie. Renken found the back of the net twice in the three games, including the game-winning score in a 1-0 win over El Camino last Saturday. For his efforts, Renken is the Velocity Sports Performance Athlete of the Week. “We know this is our year and we are really pumped to translate all that effort from the years past to wins,” said Renken, who turns 18 today (Thursday). “Coming out and getting two wins and going undefeated in the first week is the start we wanted.” The Nighthawks have already matched their season-high in wins. The five goals they scored in the first three games is just one goal shy of the total they had through their entire See RENKEN, Page B3

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) 573-1965 or visit this Internet Web site www. priorityposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 12-108811.

The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. 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: $392,587.52. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. 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 (619)590-1221 or visit the internet website www.rppsales.com, using the file number assigned to this case 1362138-31. 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. For sales information: (619)590-1221. Cal-Western Reconveyance Corporation, 525 East Main Street, P.O.

PREP BOYS BASKETBALL PREVIEW
DRIVING FOR SUCCESS PHS, RBHS have new looks; DNHS has Valley League title hopes
BY MICHAEL BOWER
PREP SPORTS ONLINE
The Palomar League is loaded with new faces across the board. The only underclassmen returning from the All-Palomar League teams is Poway High guard Derek Babiash. Rancho Bernardo lost its leading scorers Richie Orlins, Michael Pierick and Shane Brown. The Broncos return just three players — no starters. That means the race to the league title is as wide open as it has been in some time, although, Torrey Pines is considered the favorite by many. “There really is no outright No. 1 team,” Titans coach Aaron Little said. “There are a lot of new faces in the league. Last year, the league was incredibly senior heavy. I think it will be pretty wide open this season. I like to believe that we will be in the mix for a league title, but it definitely is a mystery this year.” Del Norte has plenty of familiar faces over in the Valley League. The squad returns a majority of its roster and expects to compete for a league title. Maranatha Christian will be playing its first season in the Pacific League. Here is a closer look at each local team:

@PomeradoSports last season, the expectations are to be at least a .500 team for the first time in the three-year program history. “Our experience is better and all-around mentally and physically we have grown a ton,” Spahn said. “We have made leaps and bounds over the year.” Wetzel will run the offense, but is not afraid to mix it up inside. He could even end up leading the team in rebounding from the point guard position. Clyde and Kyle Sit figure to be the top outside shooters, while 6-foot-5 Bulkin will be in the paint. The Nighthawks love to run and score points in transition, using a smothering defense to create turnovers. “Our attitude this year is our best offense is our defense,” Spahn said. “We are going to try to get up and down the court. We hope we don’t have to run a lot of halfcourt sets. We want transition buckets.” Del Norte finished in third place in the Valley League last season, but should challenge for its first league title in school history. With the exit of Canyon Crest Academy to the Palomar League, the fight for the Valley League title should be between the Nighthawks, defending champion Valley Center and Oceanside.
Poway
ԎԎCOACH: Aaron Little, 7th year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 19-11, eliminated in first round of Division I playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: PG, Tom Erb, Jr.; G, Derek Babiash, Sr.; G, Brandon Dumas, Sr.; G, Tyler Green, Jr.; C, Dalton Soffer, Soph. ԎԎOUTLOOK: Opponents can throw out those scouting tapes from a season ago because the Titans have a completely new look this season. After the graduation of 6-foot-10 Sam Beeler, who earned a scholarship to UC Santa Barbara, Poway’s of fense will have to take a dif ferent approach. A smaller and less experienced lineup could lead to some early struggles for Poway, but Little is hoping the team can mesh by the start of the new year. “We are going to be a work in progress,” Little said. “A lot of new faces and guys trying to learn how hard it is to win at the varsity level, but I think we have a lot of upside. We are going to be completely different from last year. At times, we could have five guards on the floor at once.” That usually translates into an up-tempo of fense and pressure, trapping defense. But that will depend on how quick the inexperienced players can adjust to the varsity level. One guy returning with starting varsity experience is point guard Erb. He should be the floor leader out there along with Babiash, the only All-Palomar League player returning from the entire league. The Titans do not have the one dominating player so the leading scorer could change from game-to-game.

Photo by Beverley Brooks “We will not have that 20-25 point guy,” Little said. “We are hoping to have several 10-12 point guys. I like it that way because if one guy has an off night, other guys can step up.”
Rancho Bernardo
ԎԎCOACH: Jim Choe, 5th year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 12-17, eliminated in first round of Division I playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: F, Bryan Zhu, Sr.; C, Stephen Marrone, Sr.; G, Lorenzo Mata, Sr.; F, Michael Searson, Jr.; F, Dillon Wirkus, Jr.; G, Elijah Brown, Jr. ԎԎOUTLOOK: The Broncos return no starters and just three players overall. The entire 14-man roster will see lots of minutes, as the Broncos should have a strong blend of shooters and post players. Seniors Zhu, Marrone and Mata figure
to lead the way with Searson, the quarterback of the football team, Wirkus and Brown providing plenty of help. Rancho Bernardo could star t slow as it tries to break in its newcomers. If the young guys can gain confidence, a lateseason run is not out of the question.
Del Norte
ԎԎCOACH: Bob Spahn, 4th year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 12-16, eliminated in first round of Division III playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: G/F, Austin Clyde, Jr.; C, Alex Bulkin, Jr.; F, Tyler Colt, Sr.; PG, Chad Wetzel, Sr.; G, Bradley Neas, Sr. ԎԎOUTLOOK: Spahn says he is more excited about this year than any other one and he has good reason to be. The Nighthawks have physically gotten bigger, and with only one starter lost from
Maranatha Christian
ԎԎCOACH: Brooks Barnhard, 2nd year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 17-6, eliminated in first round of Division V playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: G, Metro Henning, Soph.; C, Gray Rohde, Sr.; F, Jeremy Tejada, Sr.; G, Corey Adkins, Soph.; G, Chance Lamont, Jr. ԎԎOUTLOOK: The Eagles return leading scorer Tejada. He along with Henning, Lamont, Adkins and Rohde should provide Maranatha with experience and plenty of scorers. The Eagles, which have a nineplayer roster, were eliminated in the first round of the Division V playoffs last season and hope to make a deeper run this year. “We have pretty much the same team as last year,” Barnhard said. “I think we have a chance to be top-10 in Division V.” This will be the first year Maranatha plays in the Pacific League, where Division V runner-up Rock Academy resides. Calvin Christian and Tri-City Christian are also strong teams within the Pacific League.

For Rossi, being a successful athlete doesn’t just come down to playing a specific sport well. “One of the focuses at Del Norte is to get the kids to think like an athlete first rather than an individual player of any sport,� he explained. Star soccer player Kyra Carusa, a junior, has played for Rossi on the varsity team since she was a freshman. Carusa has endured the physical strain of Rossi’s training and testifies his methods have made her a stronger player. “The training is tough, but very rewarding,� Carusa said. “We always benefit and have fun. He takes the Navy SEAL values and incorporates them into our training. He is always talking about determination and dedication� Rossi’s training extends beyond the girls soccer team at Del Norte. He has also coached the boys novice water polo team and fostered Del Norte’s Navy SEAL Invitational Team. The Navy SEAL Invitational is an athletic competition hosted by the Navy SEALS each year.
It includes a series of Navy SEAL workouts and the team who can finish them the fastest wins. Del Norte placed first last year and second this year. Rugby player Dan Hardiman is a member of the Navy SEAL Invitational and trains privately with Rossi to this day. Hardiman is ranked as one of the best rugby players in California. He also can perform the amazing feat of 72 pushups in a minute. “Gary has gotten me into the best shape of my life,� Hardiman said. “He always tells me mind over matter no matter how tough a workout may be.� Rossi’s work with Del Norte athletes may be physically strenuous, but has resulted in increased athletic performance across the school’s sports teams, which Rossi hopes to push further. “One of the goals is to get to the CIF finals for soccer and win it this year,� he said. “We are continuing to get better.� And stronger.
FOOTBALL CONTINUED FROM PAGE B1
The Titans will be losing a special group of seniors who made their mark on the program by reaching back-to-back section championship games. The defense, which has arguably been the best in school history over the past two years, will see the biggest loss to graduation. “These seniors are a special group because they are a close-knit group,� Poway coach Damian Gonzalez said. “When you lose a group of kids like that it is tough. I am so proud of the way they competed all year and the way they stuck together.�
The big momentum changer in Saturday’s game came just before halftime. The Titans appeared to be headed into the break down just 1310 after the speedy Brandon Lucas broke free for an 80-yard TD run with 1:16 to go in the second quarter. But Paopao led an eight-play 80-yard scoring drive, which included a 26-yard pass to Cottrell on fourthand-10. The march culminated with a 14-yard TD pass from Paopao to William Gulley with 19 seconds left to make it 20-10 at halftime. “That killed our momentum,� Gon-
zalez said. “That was definitely a big swing.� Poway ended up punting twice and turning the ball over on downs three times in the second half, as the Pirates pulled away. Oceanside’s Gulley scored the game-clinching TD on a 2-yard run — his fourth score of the night — to make it 32-10 with 2:26 left in the third quarter. Poway senior tailback Nehemiah Gross finished with 73 yards on 22 carries. Arizona-bound cornerback/ receiver Derek Babiash had two catches for 68 yards.
RENKEN

first varsity season. Renken’s game-winning score against El Camino came on a header in the first half. Senior Billy Medina made the perfect cross on a counter-attack and Renken headed it home. “It was a great cross by Billy,� Renken said. “The goalie was a little of f his line and I hit the ball above him. I think it was going too fast for him so it went through is hands and into the top of the net.� There are 15 seniors on the Nighthawks’ roster, but
only a few have been with the program since the beginning. Renken is hoping the group can leave a positive mark on the program before graduating. “We definitely want to make it to the playoffs and once we get there we are excited to see how far we can go,� he said. “I am not going to say we are going to win CIF because that is a tall order with Cathedral Catholic and St. Augustine.� Renken’s speed and vision are a few reasons he is
a phenomenal goal-finder. Combine that with his consistent all-out effort and it makes him one of the premier players in the area. “He has a very good first touch,� Del Nor te coach David O’Reilly said. “He is always giving 100-percent effort on and off the field. He is the type of guy every coach wants on their team.� The Nighthawks will try to collect their third win of the season today (Thursday), when they travel to Santana for a 4:30 p.m. match.

ACCIDENT — Former Rancho Bernardo High and current University of Oregon cross country and track star Molly Grabill is doing OK after suffering injuries in a car accident on Interstate 5, some 50 miles south of Eugene on Nov. 26. Oregon State police said someone dropped a rock larger than a baseball from an overpass, smashing the window of the 1997 Subaru Legacy station wagon Grabill was driving. The rock struck Grabill and, according to Oregon spokesman Greg Walker, she suffered a broken jawbone and cuts to her face that required stitches. For more information, visit PomeradoNews.com.

PREP GIRLS BASKETBALL PREVIEW
LOADED WITH TALENT
PHS, DNHS return several players; RBHS, Maranatha rebuilding BY MICHAEL BOWER There is lots of returning talent to the Poway High and Del Norte girls basketball teams. Arguably the top point guard in the county, Mandy Castro, will lead the Titans, while returning leading scorer Lexi Reddick leads the way for the Nighthawks. Poway's string of three straight Palomar League titles was snapped last season by Mt. Carmel. But the Titans are loaded again and should be in the mix with usual suspects Torrey Pines, Mt. Carmel and Westview. “Unfor tunately, there will be a good team that comes in four th place in our league,” Poway coach Jay Trousdale said. “Our goal is to compete for a league title and a Division I championship.” Rancho Bernardo is still trying to get its program back on track, while the door is open for Del Norte to win its first league title in the Valley League. Maranatha Christian is coming off a 17win season, but lost three of its starters and could have a challenging first year in the Pacific League. Here is a closer look at the local teams:
Poway
ԎԎCOACH: Jay Trousdale, 26th year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 22-8, eliminated in semifinals of Division I playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: F, Sam Jones, Sr.; PG, Mandy Castro, Sr.; F/G, Brooke Hulett, Jr.; G, Bri Molnar, Sr.; F, Park Masterson, Sr. ԎԎOUTLOOK: The Titans came up one win short of reaching the Division I finals last season, but return seven players and have the talent to make another run at the crown this year. Poway will be led by Castro, arguably the top point guard in the county. Castro has great vision, can distribute the ball and shoot with the best of them. She will often be feeding the ball to forward Masterson and wing player Hulett. But as usual, the Titans’ strong play will start on the defensive end of the floor. “We are always going to do what Poway teams do — play defense first,” Trousdale said. “We will play multiple defenses well and then we are going to fast break when it is there and share the ball offensively.” Poway has five returning seniors, two juniors and four sophomores. It could take some time for the young players to find their groove at the varsity level, but Trousdale hopes the team will be firing on all cylinders by the time Palomar League play rolls around in January.
Rancho Bernardo
ԎԎCOACH: Kai Harris, 2nd year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 2-22, did not make playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: G, Kathy Rudkin, Jr.;
Del Norte High's Monica Dutta, left, is one of several returning players to an experienced Nighthawks squad, which should challenge for the Valley League title. File photo
Sr.; G, Kaitlin Manuel, Sr.; G, Kayla Evans, Soph. ԎԎOUTLOOK: Losing point guard Muniphe Green, an All-Valley League Second-Team selection, to graduation will be tough to overcome for the Nighthawks, but getting back a healthy Kaitlin Manuel will certainly help. Manuel, who played only nine games last season due to a broken hand and then a torn ACL, should help at the guard position. Also, Evans has another year under her belt and should play a key role in helping Del Norte compete for the Valley League crown. Reddick, the leading scorer the past two years, will likely lead the team in scoring again this season. Cole, a three-year starter, should also give the Nighthawks an offensive boost. Evans, Reddick and Cole were part of the Nighthawks’ volleyball team, which reached the SoCal Regional semifinals, so it could take them some time to get into playing shape. “Three of our starters were on the volleyball team and haven’t touched a ball for a long time,” McNeely said before the season started. “When we get them back, we probably will spend the whole month of December just getting them back into the game.” Valley Center is the defending Valley League champions, but lost most of its team to graduation. San Dieguito Academy and Canyon Crest Academy, the secondand third-place finishers, respectively, are no longer in the league. That opens the door for the Nighthawks to claim their first league championship. Newcomers to the league are Oceanside and Ramona. The Pirates and Nighthawks are considered the preseason front runners.

G/F, Cara Reynolds, Sr.; Cassy Cunningham, Jr.; G, Haley Alexander, Jr. OUTLOOK: The Broncos struggled through last year, but are hoping to turn the program in the right direction. The record might not be stellar again this season, but being competitive in most games will be the goal. The team is hoping to turn a corner in Palomar League play, too, as last season it went 0-10.
Finding scorers could be tough after the loss of Aliyah Potts to graduation. Returners Cunningham and Rudkin figure to do most of the scoring.
Del Norte
ԎԎCOACH: Jake McNeely, 4th year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 15-14, eliminated in second round of Division III playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: F, Lexi Reddick, Sr.; C/F, Caitlin Cole, Jr.; G, Monica Dutta,
ԎԎCOACH: Tim Shelton, 3rd year ԎԎ2012 RECORD: 17-8, eliminated in first round of Division V playoffs. ԎԎKEY PLAYERS: G, Jessica Sanchez, Sr.; G/F, Amber Weatherford, Sr.; C, Katie Cook, C. ԎԎOUTLOOK: The Eagles are coming off a tremendous season, but are in the rebuilding process after losing their three tallest starters from last year. Weatherford and Sanchez are the lone returning starters. Those two along with Cook should be the leading scoring threats for the Eagles. Maranatha will have stiff competition in its first year in the Pacific League, where Tri-City Christian is the favorite. Rock Academy should also be near the top of the standings. The Eagles expect to be in the middle of the pack. “We have a great group of kids that are fun to work with,” Shelton said. “It is always exciting to get a fresh start.”

n 2008 my teenager opened an account at a Rancho Bernardo bank. When they got bought out we moved across the street with them. This week I went to deposit a check into her account. I’m legally recognized as the primary name on this account. However, I’m also sometimes absentminded and had to ask them to look up the account number. They couldn’t find me. They couldn’t find my daughter. They couldn’t find Social Security numbers or a signature card. They claim we don’t exist, even as they send us statements explaining how much of her money they’re holding. So we’re leaving. Apparently, this bank has grown so big that I’ve become just a number. I resent being treated like a null set (my 10th grade algebra teacher would be so proud that I remembered that little tidbit!) Call me old-fashioned, but I expect people to remember me. If we’re doing business, you should be able to find me in your system without a blood sample. So they’re needlessly losing two generations of business as we switch to the friendly folks at Mission Federal where everybody remembers us. Mega BankCorp has lost me forever. And you can bet I’ll go out of my way to tell friends what happened, even though my editor forbids me to name the bank here. Regardless of what you sell, this is an important consider-

You’re supposedly building a relationship, and they don’t want to feel like you’ve never heard of them.

My daughter leaves the nest soon and won’t work with this bank either, despite their flashy brochures, offers of free money for opening an account, and attractive website. They lost the Weinbergs’ business — not because they were too big to fail. They just got too big to care. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Lost track of a pension? Here's how to find it Losing track of a small pension from years ago is actually quite common, especially if you’ve have had a lot of jobs throughout your working life. To help you locate a lost pension, here are the steps to take along with some free resources that can help you search if your previous employer has gone out of business, changed names or merged with another firm. Pension proof If you think you have a pension from a previous employer, and the company is still in business, your first step is to call their human resources department and ask them to give you the contact information of the pension plan administrator. Then you’ll need to contact them to find out how much your pension is worth and how to claim it. Depending on how complete the plan administrator’s records are, you may need to show proof that you once worked for the company and that you are pension eligible.

12TH ANNUAL EVENT
Trade apprentices compete for titles in Poway
The Poway Villas apartment complex underwent a makeover.
Community celebrates completion of upgrades at Poway Villas complex After a yearlong renovation process, residents and civic leaders gathered on Nov. 28 to celebrate a total makeover of the 38-year-old Poway Villas apartment complex. Community HousingWorks purchased all 60 apartments and worked with residents to prioritize the renovations. Located at 13001 Bowron Road, Poway Villas Apartments is CHW’s sixth development in the heart of Poway and provides apartment homes that are affordable to families, working singles, seniors and people with disabilities living on fixed incomes. Beginning a year ago, CHW installed new kitchens, bathrooms, replaced carpet with hard flooring in all the apartments, and built a 2,100-square-foot community center, which hosts the leasing office, mailboxes and meeting rooms. This is also where CHW provides a full range of resident programs, including after-school Learning Communities programs for youth, and its Own.Rent.Achieve classes including financial management and homebuyer support for adults. Recognized as a national leader in adopting sustainable, green building methods, CHW made sure the renovation included the installation of energy-efficient appliances, heat/ air conditioning systems, light fixtures, increased insulation, water conservation features and “cool” roofs. These features will lower energy and water bills and greatly reduce the carbon footprint of the complex — the new solar hot water system alone should reduce energy costs as much as 40 percent. In 2010, CHW received national recognition for innovative financing using tax credits to recapitalize financing from former HUD 236 properties, receiving Novogradac Journal of Tax Credits’ 2010 Developments of Distinction Award for Innovative HUD Finance for the renovation of 80 apartments called Turnagain Renaissance in Fallbrook. Using this same successful financing template, CHW was able to acquire and renovate Poway Villas.
Twenty seasoned apprentices and craft trainees felt the pressure but prevailed over the competition to win honors as the top apprentice in their individual craft at the 12th annual San Diego Associated Builders and Contractors Apprenticeship Craft Champions Competition. The event took place Saturday at the Training Trust Academy in Poway. The winners in each of three crafts — electrical, plumbing and sheet metal — won the right to represent San Diego in the 2013 ABC National Craft Championships in Birmingham, Ala., next May. In the electrical competition, the winner was Christopher Sweeney of Rowan Electric in San Diego. Second place went to Brad Parkinson of Bergelectric in Escondido; third place went to Timothy Hanson.

The sheet metal champion is Clayton Courter of Southcoast Heating and Air Conditioning in Vista; Kevin Sullivan of Brian Cox Mechanical in Poway took second place.
