SDUHSD candidates clash over signs

BY KAREN BILLING Two San Dieguito Union School District board candidates have questioned the practice of a number of teachers placing campaign signs in their cars while parked at school.

Candidate Lucile Lynch brought the issue to the board’s attention following signs spotted at Earl Warren Middle School. Candidate

BY CHRIS SAUR Though the night of Sept 28 started off with a touch of tension during a special session of the Encinitas City Council, the council switched gears by focusing on improving the beauty and safety of the city for most of the regular meeting that followed.

The special meeting was scheduled as a consideration of the price and terms for the city to lease the Pacific View property to the Encinitas Arts, Culture and Ecology Alliance (EACEA) — a deal that has been in the works since the city bought the property from the Encinitas Union School District for $10 million in March 2014 — followed by an adjournment into closed session to provide direction to city staff on negotiations.

However, Mayor Kristin Gaspar made the motion to discuss the proposed direction in open session to provide more transparency after it was her interpretation that three other members of the City Council had violated the Brown Act by discussing the item earlier in the day.

Deputy Mayor Lisa Shaffer and council member Catherine Blakespear disagreed with Gaspar’s assessment, which council member Mark Muir also made reference to wondering if the proposal had “already been voted on.”

Shaffer and Blakespear said there was certainly not a private vote.

The accusation came out of a conversation Gaspar said she heard between Shaffer and Blakespear in front of Gaspar’s office. Shaffer, according to Gaspar, had just left a subcommittee meeting with council member SEE COUNCIL, A18

According to Interim Superintendent Eric Dill, the practice is legal. As soon as Dill heard about campaign signs at Earl Warren on Monday, Sept. 19, he checked with

Principal Adam Camacho to ensure there were no signs physically posted at Earl Warren and there wasn’t any political activity happening inside a classroom.

In addition to signs in cars at Earl Warren, signs were visible in several cars at San Dieguito High School Academy before the board meeting SEE SIGNS, A18

Looking to foster a vision for the future that reflects the community’s most important values and priorities, the Coastal Mobility and Livability Study hopes to gather input at five upcoming

workshops, one in each area of Encinitas.

Through this study, the public will help identify the community’s vision of Encinitas’ future by addressing and working through many different topic areas, including double tracking at the San Elijo and Batiquitos Lagoons; improvements and alternatives to rail crossings at Chesterfield Drive, Montgomery, El Portal and Grandview; the Coastal Rail Trail; quiet zones/Wayside horns; the Leucadia Streetscape; parking; drainage improvements; landscaping; and other

amenities, such as public art.

On Oct. 5 in Leucadia, the community is invited to Paul Ecke Central Elementary, 185 Union Street, from 6 to 8 p.m. The next night, a workshop is set for Cardiff Elementary, 1888 Montgomery Avenue, from 6 to 8 p.m.

EUSD honored for 21st Century Learning

COURTESY

The San Diego Junior Theatre — shown here at a recent event — will perform at an Oct. 9 event benefiting the Camp Pendleton Hospital Child Watch program.

North Coast Y Service Club cabaret benefits Camp Pendleton kids programs “Life is a Cabaret, Old Chum!” will be presented by the North Coast Y Service Club, on behalf of Armed Services YMCA Camp Pendleton Children’s programs, on Sunday Oct. 9 at 2 p.m. at the newly remodeled Dove Library Auditorium.

The San Diego Junior Theatre — the oldest successful junior theatre program in the U.S. since its start in 1948 — will perform songs from the world of Cabaret, Broadway show tunes and fun classical standards at the event, which benefits the Camp Pendleton Hospital Child Watch program.

The Child Watch program provides short term care for military parents while they take siblings or themselves to the doctor. It serves more than 500 children a month, but funding was cut with the military reduction last year, according to a news release.

“Being able to assist this many of our hardworking junior enlisted military families in this way is a meaningful honor for our club and donors,” said North Coast Y club member Doug Jones. “The performance was sold out — with two encores — last season and this second season has four times the raffle items including an international item.

“It’s a toe-tapping, heart-pounding, fun experience for all ages in a very nice venue.”

Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for children under 12. Credit cards are accepted. For more information, or to become a donor or sponsor, send an email to ednagibson@aol.com or call 760-635-0464.

One week after becoming the only school district in the country to earn organic designation for its farm-to-school lunch program, the Encinitas Union School District (EUSD) has been named one of just four “Exemplar” districts in the nation for 2016-17 by the Partnership for 21st Century Learning (P21).

P21’s 21st Century Learning Exemplar Program searches for and shares the stories of schools and districts that have successfully transformed student learning through innovative practices such as distributed leadership and community partnerships. More information is available at www.p21.org/exemplars.

“EUSD is honored to receive recognition as

a 21st Century Learning Exemplar district,” EUSD Superintendent Timothy Baird said in a news release. “Our implementation of the key subjects and 21st-century themes is providing opportunities for our students to be globally aware. This awareness provides a meaningful context for all learning.”

P21 honored EUSD for exemplary 21st Century learning practices in preparing students for success in college, career and life. “All learners deserve to grow in a 21st Century Learning environment,” said P21 Executive Director Helen Soulé. “It is P21’s vision for the innovative practices in education exhibited by all P21 Exemplars to be replicated across the country and world.”

LCC teacher releases her second novel ‘True Vert’ Berend draws from her students to get characters and stories

COURTESY

La Costa Canyon English teacher Janet Eoff Berend is releasing “True Vert” in October. It is the sequel to her successful first novel “Vertical.”

She just didn’t know what she wanted to write about.

“It was always kind of gurgling back there in my brain … and then I was teaching sophomore English and I had these two boys who were these skater dudes, and they just absolutely fascinated me because at moments they would have these profound discussions about things that really mattered to them, but

and Josh struggles to decide how to deal with his friend, especially after a bad incident.

Meanwhile, Josh develops an attraction to a bookworm named Erin and must learn how to deal with that. “(These things) scare him, scare him as much as dropping into a vert ramp, so there’s the metaphor,” explained Berend, who surfs and snowboards in addition to playing drums in the band Super Nacho.

Some of the time, Josh and Erin discuss literature and meaning, which later applies to their lives. But they do it in a way Berend’s high school students can really relate to.

“I’m an English teacher, and I do all of these English teachery things,” Berend said with a laugh. “It’s trickery, I’m tricking these boys who like skateboarding, who pick up ‘Vertical’ and love it, but are actually reading something with meaning.

“If you read reviews of ‘Vertical,’ that’s what teachers like about it.”

Berend said teachers often ask her if there is a sequel. And now there is.

In “True Vert,” Josh has become a high-level sponsored skater, but is struggling to stay humble and fit in with his longtime group of friends, while also being tempted to become like the overconfident, shallow group of people he’s meeting in his new life. He’s also still trying to find the best way to connect with Erin.

“Really these novels are about friendship and relationships,” Berend said. “(‘True Vert’ specifically) is about learning to be who you are and not letting outside influences shape SEE TEACHER, A19

BY CHRIS SAUR Visiting her daughter Rell, who was in her second year at the University of San Francisco, Encinitas resident Janet Eoff Berend was on Jack Kerouac St. when she learned she would be following in Kerouac’s footsteps as an author with more than one published book.

That January email came from a publisher called Breakaway Books, telling the longtime La Costa Canyon English teacher that they would be happy to publish her second novel “True Vert.”

“At heart, I’m a writer who teaches English … not an English teacher who writes,” said Berend, 50, who spent two years at San Dieguito High, has been at LCC for 21 years and had her debut novel “Vertical” published

by Breakaway Books in 2012.

“True Vert” will be available on Amazon and at the Encinitas Barnes & Noble in early October.

After teaching English for many years, often focusing on creative writing, it wasn’t a huge jump to write her own novel. And it comes as little surprise that Berend’s characters are drawn from the high school kids she works with every day.

“What happens is you start deconstructing it, you start absorbing the language and the story, and you start noticing the way things are written,” she explained, adding that a creative writing course she took at Palomar Community College solidified her desire to write a novel.

they would talk about it like skate dudes,” Berend said. “I thought that was so hilarious … and I thought, ‘Oh my god, these guys would be great characters.’”

Once she had the characters, she brainstormed stories and came up with the idea of “What would have to happen for (these young skater dudes) to not be friends anymore?”

A few weeks after posing that question to herself, Berend was driving away from LCC and suddenly she could hear the voice of her main character Josh saying, “I’m standing at the top of the vert ramp and I look around and see my town and think about (my friends) ...”

She immediately drove to Radio Shack, bought a recorder and continued that train of thought, eventually forming the basis for “Vertical.” The moment she had envisioned while driving became the book’s closing scene.

Berend spent a year and a half, writing and rewriting — she says she’s a big reviser — and finished that first book in 2010. It wasn’t published until 2012, when it found the perfect home at Breakaway books.

“People thought it was a book just for boys or a skate book ... (but) it’s just about a character struggling in high school, who happens to skate,” Berend said. “I’m really writing about what I see kids struggle with and how they go about resolving the things that come their way — really just growing up.”

In “Vertical,” Josh is going into high school and facing the challenge of managing life and relationships. He uses skating as an escape and a way to build relationships. However, his best friend, a fellow skater, falls in with a bad crowd

Each offered eight days of intensive instruction by local industry superstars such as “Dr.” Bill Sysak, George Thornton and Dave Adams; and one free day to explore San Diego.

The camps were a brand new offering from SDSU’s popular Business of Craft Beer program, which provides hands-on training for those looking to enter or already working in the brewing industry on the business side, rather than the brewing side of operations.

I will personally curate all the beer and I have already been at work establishing relationships with local brewers and getting to know their beers.

What was your goal in attending?

To open a great beer bar in this town, one must really know their stuff, and this concentrated class was a great way to establish my base knowledge. One of my goals is to become a Cicerone, not for the title but to drive myself to understand everything I can as an owner serving

To commemorate 30 years since the five unique communities of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Old Encinitas, Leucadia, Olivenhain and New Encinitas incorporated to become Encinitas in 1986, the city will host a weekend celebration Oct. 7-9.

Three main events will take residents back to 1986, when Top Gun was the No. 1 movie and the mullet, big hair and shoulder pads were all the rage.

The celebration begins on Friday night, Oct. 7, with Everybody Cut Footloose, an all-ages ’80s retro dance at the Encinitas Community Center, 1140 Oakcrest Park Drive. From 7 to 9 p.m., attendees can participate in costume contests, dance battles and more, with food and drink available for purchase.

The next night, residents are invited to an outdoor movie at the Leo Mullen Sports Park’s new artificial turf soccer field, 951 Via Cantebria. Fun activities and a showing of the ’80s movie classic “An American Tale” will begin at 7 p.m. so bring blankets and low-backed chairs.

Finish off the weekend with a bang at Moonlight Beach on Sunday, Oct. 9 with an ’80s concert featuring Beta Maxx. The fun begins at 2 p.m. with a groundbreaking ceremony for the new Marine Safety Center.

The concert starts at 3 p.m., so wear your ’80s best and break out the old school dance moves. There may be some other surprises as well.

All events have free admission, and no dogs are allowed at any of the event locations.

Encinitas Rotary recognizes Deputy Rebecca Dorman as Peace Officer of the Year The Rotary Club of Encinitas has recognized Deputy Rebecca Dorman as its 2016 Peace Officer of the Year.

“A strong police force represents the thin blue line between law and order and total chaos,” said Encinitas Rotary President Greg Day. “Our police deserve our respect and gratitude.

Today we recognize a front line responder who provided exemplary service to our community.”

Dorman has been assigned to the North Coastal Station of the San Diego Sheriff’s Department for three years.

In March, she responded to a call where she found a person motionless in a parked car. She helped pull the lifeless body from the car and CPR was administered.

Dorman quickly assessed the life and death situation and administered Naloxone (Narcan), which counters the effects of a heroin overdose.

The victim responded immediately and began breathing.

Encinitas inks deals with Surfing Madonna, Cardiff runs

BY BARBARA HENRY Three running events hosted by Surfing Madonna Oceans Project will provide at least $100,000 to Encinitas programs in the coming year, while two other runs will donate $4 on behalf of each participant, under new deals inked by the Encinitas City Council on

Sept. 21.

The running events have hits some bumps at City Hall in the past, with some complaining they take more away from the city than they give back. In May, however, council members agreed to let the Surfing Madonna group start a new run and let the Cardiff Kook

Study: MiraCosta College contributes $338 million to county gross

MiraCosta College generates a total economic impact of $338.4 million to San Diego County’s Gross Regional Product annually — enough to support 5,041 jobs in its service area — according to a new report from an Idaho-based firm that specializes in analyzing the economic impact of colleges and universities.

“As chair of the California Community Colleges Task Force on Workforce, Job Creation and a Strong Economy, I have had the opportunity to see firsthand the important role that community colleges up and down the state play in keeping our economy growing, and this report underscores how MiraCosta College is helping to set the path,” Superintendent/President of the MiraCosta Community College District Sunita Cooke said in a news release.

The Emsi study found that for every dollar of public money invested in MiraCosta, taxpayers are receiving a return of $1.80 in benefits via higher earnings and increased business output.

The study also reported that MiraCosta employs more than 1,000 full-time and part-time employees; a student who earns an associate degree from MiraCosta College will see an increase in earnings of $11,700 each year compared to someone with a high school diploma; and that students educated at MiraCosta College are yielding a total savings of $39.8 million in benefits derived from reduced law enforcement, welfare, unemployment and other related social costs.

“MiraCosta College is proud to be having such a profound impact in our community,” said President of the MiraCosta Board of Trustees David Broad.

Muir to lead San Diego Water Authority

Encinitas City Council member Mark Muir, who has represented the San Dieguito Water District on the San Diego County Water Authority Board of Directors since 2013, has been elected as the new board chair of the county organization.

Muir follows two years of Mark Weston (Poway) leading the board of the Water Authority, which sustains a $222 billion regional economy and the quality of life for 3.3 million residents through a multi-decade water supply diversification plan, major infrastructure Mark Muir investments and forward-thinking policies that promote fiscal and environmental responsibility, according to a news release. A public agency created in 1944, the Water Authority delivers wholesale water supplies to 24 retail water providers, including cities, special districts and a military base.

“Thanks to extraordinary conservation

efforts, we stored 100,000 acre-feet of water in the recently expanded San Vicente Reservoir, well ahead of schedule, adding to reserves that will protect us from future dry years,” Muir said in praising Weston’s leadership. “Last December, we started commercial operations at the largest seawater desalination plant in the country, adding up to 56,000 acre-feet of locally controlled, drought-resilient supplies to the region each year.

Muir also said that the Water Authority will continue its efforts to ensure the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California charges legal rates. The Water Authority has filed four lawsuits against illegal rates at MWD covering 2011-2018. A state Superior Court judge in 2015 ordered MWD to pay the Water Authority more than $235 million in damages, costs and pre-judgment interest for illegal overcharges in 2011-2014, plus attorneys’ fees determined in 2016 to be $8.9 million. Judge Curtis E.A. Karnow also ordered MWD to only set legal rates in future years.

Encinitans, do not be fooled by city propaganda when you vote on Measure T. This deliberately convoluted Ballot Measure fits the definition of a pig in a poke. Rewriting the city’s and your General Plan and Zoning Code in their entirety is not required by state law as claimed and is indeed outside of state jurisdiction. These comprehensive changes are an unwarranted mixed bag violating your sacred constitutional documents. You should never be asked to approve or deny such collective changes. Voting for them does not comply with your 2012 Right to Vote Initiative (Prop. A). In truth, Measure T and its associated changes are meant to destroy Proposition A. They are meant to disenfranchise you from ever voting on individual land use changes again in the future.

This ballot measure transfers power for making land use decisions to unelected city staff members. Please, do not give them carte blanche to ruin your quality of life and your community character. Measure T would not protect them as claimed.

This measure, masquerading as At Home Encinitas, is proclaimed to be a state-mandated Housing Element Update (HEU) for providing affordable homes. Approval, however, will not guarantee that a single affordable low-income housing unit will actually be built here.

Instead, the HEU creates new high-density zones throughout your city with over 30 housing units per acre. It will create up to 2,604 new housing units throughout the city. It will permit mixed commercial and residential buildings of four to five stories with new height limits up to 45 feet. It will cause citywide traffic congestions and parking problems by creating up to 26,040 new daily car trips.

This HEU does not benefit residents, and certainly not low-income people. It will solely provide huge new profit-driven opportunities for the building industry. Do not be intimidated

by chicken-livered arguments that Measure T will protect the city from future lawsuits. Money hungry developers and the building industry will keep suing the city for bigger structures and higher housing density, whether Measure T passes or not. Sacramento does not have the power to change existing municipal laws.

Pressure for higher density and more affordable housing can be accommodated through variances on individual housing projects, as is already done by the city under the state’s housing density bonus provisions. Giving in to threats of lawsuits is selling out your quality of life.

Do not let it happen. Reject urbanization of our beach town atmosphere. Reject Measure T. Dietmar Rothe, Ph.D. Cardiff-by-the-Sea

MiraCosta College is possessed by greed Sadly “our MiraCosta College” has succumbed to the same greed that is afflicting schools throughout the state and driving a wedge between education and its constituents. People have trusted these institutions with their children and their pocket books, but unfortunately this relationship is becoming strained, due to the self-serving practices of the school bond industry and certain ambitious administrators. Instead of asking for the dollars actually needed, many schools are now asking for the maximum amount in bonds that the law will allow. These administrators are encouraged to “shoot for the moon” since only 55 percent of the vote is required to approve a school bond instead of the traditional 66.6. As a result, 90 percent of all school bonds now pass, whether they are needed or not. The attitude appears to be “if the electorate is willing to give away tax dollars, why not take as much as possible.”

The MiraCosta $455 million bond request,

Measure MM, is 23 times more than the system-wide California Community College Trustees included in its 5-year plan for MiraCosta and 10 times more than even what MiraCosta told the system trustees it needed just last year.

This request for more tax dollars comes at a time when facility needs are declining because of flat enrollment and 40 percent of all of MiraCosta’s credits are now being granted for online courses.

MiraCosta is a wealthy district. It receives more each year in local property taxes and other income than required to operate its educational programs and with state aid, to fund its ongoing facilities needs. Over the years, taxpayers have provided MiraCosta more than 70 buildings.

About half, have been constructed in the past 40 years.

Now, it appears that those in power want to reconfigure the three campuses. They want $455 million of your money to tear down many very expensive, fully functional buildings and to replace them with new ones. Because the $455 million is beyond MiraCosta’s borrowing and state support limits, it is jumping on the bond market band wagon and hoping voters will blindly pass its unsupported Measure MM request.

MiraCosta included language in this bond proposal that will allow it to use the $455 million for whatever construction projects it wants, where it wants and when it wants.

Consequently, if voters approve the bond they will not be assured that everything proposed will ever be built.

While additional facilities may be desired, they appear to be within the capability of the existing MiraCosta budget. No new bonds/taxes are required.

Please stop the greed. Vote no on MiraCosta Collage Measure MM. Jerry Peters President, Cardiff Taxpayers Association

ENCINITAS ADVOCATE - SEPTEMBER 30, 2016 - PAGE A15

Clearing up LCFF confusion

T

he portion of last week’s column that discussed the Local Control Funding Formula money received by the San Dieguito Union High School District was incomplete, somewhat confusing and requires further elaboration.

I may have opinions on how districts should spend their money, but those opinions need to be based on clearly stated facts.

Given the healthy financial position of the district, I still maintain that more money should be allocated to programs, services and supplies that are currently parent-funded.

Nevertheless, I admit my prior LCFF discussion was less than clear. Mea culpa. Let me try again.

According to California’s nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office, the LCFF legislation, enacted in 2013-2014, provides California school districts with “significant increases in funding.”

The purpose was to give local districts more control over their state funding, with the over-arching goal to target high-need students as well as to increase student success for all categories of pupils.

There are three components of the LCFF grants: Base Grant, Supplemental Grant and Concentration Grant.

San Dieguito does not qualify for Concentration Grants which are awarded to school districts with more than 55 percent of their student population classified as high need (low income, English learners, foster youth).

Eric Dill, SDUHSD’s interim superintendent, said last year that the district’s total LCFF for

2015-2016 was about $95.9 million. About $94.3 million was the Base Grant and about $1.6 million was the Supplemental Grant.

Supplemental Grant money is 20 percent more above the base and is granted for every high-need student, to be used to meet their particular needs.

The column last week included a quote from State Assembly woman Shirley Weber disagreeing with state Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson’s interpretation of the law when he said the grant money could be used for salary increases.

Although the context was unclear, Weber was likely referring to Supplemental and Concentration Grant money, not the Base Grant.

Base Grant The Base Grant includes the base rate, plus an extra 2.6 percent for all ninth-to-12th-grade students, based on Average Daily Attendance, at a rate of about $216 per ADA. San Dieguito’s 8,300 students in grades 9-12, multiplied by $216, equals about $1.8 million.

So the district’s 2015-2016 Base Grant of $94.3 million includes about $1.8 million of the 2.6-percent “extra” money.

According to the Legislative Analyst’s Office, the additional income for high schools “is not designated for any particular activity, but the genesis of the adjustment relate[s] to the costs of providing career technical education (CTE) in high school.”

The LAO report states that the $216 per ADA “reflects the average total amount spent per pupil on Regional Occupational Centers and

Programs (ROCPs)” under the previous funding system.

Many districts, Dill said, cut their CTE programs during the recession, and this money was intended to support the re-introduction and expansion of the programs.

But at San Dieguito, he said, CTE classes and programs actually increased in recent years.

“We’ve embedded CTE in the high school curriculum,” he said, noting that the district last year spent about $2.1 million in career and technical education – which is higher than what the state is providing.

Supplemental Grant The district’s Supplemental Grant money of $1.6 million is intended to target the needs of low-income students, English learners and foster youth.

Dill said these groups of students represent about 10 percent of the district’s pupil enrollment.

The goals for the Supplemental Grant money, Dill said, are to “achieve more, provide more, spend more.” He puts “achieve more” at the top of the list.

Each district, he said, has flexibility in how to reach those goals.

Dill said he disagreed with those who say Supplemental Grant money can’t be used for teacher salaries. But he clarified by adding that San Dieguito has used a portion of that grant money to add new teachers and increase the number of sections to serve those high-need students.

So technically the money is being used for teacher salaries, but it’s to hire additional teachers and not necessarily to pay for raises.

Discretionary Dill said about 85 percent of the district’s total operating budget goes toward staffing costs, salaries and benefits. The Base Grant of $94.3 million is completely discretionary, he said, and supports this primary expenditure.

According to the LAO, target base rates in the 2013-2014 school year were as follows: $6,845 for grades K-3; $6,947 for grades 4-6; $7,154 for grades 7-8; and $8,289 for grades 9-12. Cost of

living adjustments are made yearly.

[As an aside, districts with students in grades K-3 are given an additional 10.4 percent of the base rate (initially $712 per ADA), to reduce class sizes to an average of no more than 24 students per class.]

The main objection to using Base Grant money for salary raises is that it’s essentially paying more for the same level of service, when the intent was to use the money to more directly impact student success.

The LAO identifies eight priority areas for district spending – student achievement, student engagement, other student outcomes (other indicators of student success), school climate, parental involvement, basic services (such as facilities improvements), implementation of Common Core State Standards, and course access.

According to the California Dept. of Education, the state’s Dept. of Finance said it would take about eight years to phase in the LCFF system, at an estimated cost of about $18 billion. Full implementation is predicted to occur in 2020-2021. This is the third year of the LFCC law.

Salary raises Before your eyes glaze over completely, a few more figures.

Dill said the total budget for 2015-2016 was about $124 million. That’s how much was spent.

The amount of revenue received was about $128 million – so Dill said the district realized a $4 million surplus last year, after a $2 million deficit the year before.

Besides the $95.9 million in total LCFF money from the state, San Dieguito also received about $32 million from other sources, including the federal government, more misc. money from the state, and some local revenue from the county.

The raises given to all employees for 2015-2016, Dill said, was just under $6.5 million (teachers about $4 million, classified about $2 million, and management/other staff about $450,000).

SPONSORED COLUMNS DR. VAN CHENG San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263

Edema and Vein Health—Why You Shouldn’t Ignore Fluid Retention What do your varicose veins and swollen ankles have in common? Both have to do with damaged veins, often caused by increased pressure within the damaged veins.

Sometimes swelling is just that—you’ve eaten too much chips and salsa, or splurged on something fried. Other swelling is caused from too much standing (at a concert or theme park, or even a long day at work), or sitting (on a plane or long car ride).

Even hot, humid weather can cause some

swelling of the legs and feet.

This is edema, which can be benign or serious.

Sometimes, blood plasma leaks out of damaged veins, seeping into the peripheral tissue. This fluid buildup that causes the swelling in the legs, feet, or hands is called peripheral edema. It’s also common among pregnant or menstruating women because of hormone changes. Generally, minor swelling will occur in the legs, ankles, and feet and will disappear overnight, absorbed by the body during sleep. Swelling that disappears within a day or two shouldn’t be a cause for alarm.

Generally, the culprit is venous insufficiency or vein damage, when the valves in the veins, especially in the lower extremities, are so weak that blood can’t pump back up toward the heart, so instead, the blood pools in the damaged veins of the legs and feet, causing those unsightly varicose veins. But note, too, that varicose

veins themselves can cause additional swelling of the legs, ankles, and feet.

What may surprise many people is that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as naproxen and ibuprofen can actually worsen edema, as can drugs prescribed for diabetes, hormones such as estrogen and testosterone, and certain antidepressants and even blood pressure medications (calcium-channel blockers).

However, in serious cases, the source of edema is kidney or liver disease, or even heart disease, which can cause fluid to enter the lungs and abdomen, if not elsewhere.

If swelling persists after a day or two or even worsens, consult a doctor quickly, especially if the swelling is accompanied by a shortness of breath, as severe fluid buildup can be caused by heart failure or lifethreatening kidney, liver, or thyroid disease.

Oftentimes in such cases, the swelling in the extremities occurs because the heart is too week to pump blood efficiently.

Look to these local authorities for professional guidance on daily living at delmartimes.net/columns

How to prevent edema? If you already have vein disease, that can’t be cured.

Varicose veins can (and should) be treated with sclerotherapy, to prevent additional problems, but the underlying cause won’t go away. But varicose veins can be a symptom of something more serious, so it’s good to get regular checkups. As for the basic edema, if you have a clean bill of health and don’t suffer from heart failure, liver or kidney disease, then try cutting down on the sodium intake. Some doctors may prescribe a diuretic for more significant edema-related swelling, but be wary of overthe-counter homeopathic remedies, as those haven’t been fully vetted. If prescription medication for high blood pressure or an unrelated condition is the cause, consult with your doctor about trying a new prescription medication instead. Beyond that, try to avoid sitting or standing for long stretches at a time, and maintain good allaround physical health and mobility.

FROM ENCINITAS, A7 Council member Catherine Blakespear praised their “incredible generosity” to the community, while Deputy Mayor Lisa Shaffer said the new agreements did a better job of spelling out what would happen if organizers balked on their commitments.

The new agreements state that if the promised money isn’t donated, organizers won’t be allowed to return the following year. Because of this, “I’m happy to support the agreements as they stand,” Shaffer said.

Under the terms of its new agreement, the Surfing Madonna Oceans Project will contribute a minimum of $100,000 in “community benefits.” Out of that money, at least $10,000 and perhaps as much as $45,000 will go to the city’s parks department or the state parks, the agreement states. At least $10,000 will go to nonprofit organizations in the city, at least $8,000 will go to lifeguard programs, and at least $5,000 will go to public art projects, it states.

The organization will host its annual beach run Oct. 15, 2016, and its new Encinitas Half Marathon event on March 26, 2017.

Cardiff Kook Run organizers, who recently have been embroiled in a conflict over their use of images of the copyrighted Cardiff “Kook” surfer statue, plan to host their next event Feb. 5, 2017.

That run and the Encinitas Turkey Trot will donate $4 to the city for every participating runner, their agreements state. Organizer Steve Lebherz told the council that the last Turkey Trot had 3,000 participants and the Cardiff Kook Run had 2,500.

“Both of them seem to be growing steadily,” so it’s likely next year’s figures will

be “a little bit more than that,” he said.

Under the terms of its agreement, the Turkey Trot will donate up to $1,000 to the Encinitas 101 Main Street organizations for holiday decorations along Coast Highway 101. Money raised above the $1,000 figure will go to the Community Resource Center’s food pantry program.

The Cardiff Kook Run’s contribution will go to the city’s parks and recreation department for “park, beach or beautification projects.”

Council members postponed debate on another item on their Sept. 21 agenda — the discussion on what, if any, voter education materials the city ought to provide for Measure T, a proposed citywide housing plan on the Nov. 8 ballot.

The ballot measure, which spells out how Encinitas proposes to accommodate higher density housing in the coming decades, has been controversial and has faced opposition from people who helped pass Encinitas’ growth control initiative in 2013.

The council was scheduled to debate whether the city should distribute “educational information and materials” related to the ballot measure. Under state law, the city can’t use taxpayer money to fund voter materials that advocate taking a position on the ballot measure — it can only pay for what are deemed “educational” documents on the measure.

Mayor Kristin Gaspar recommended removing the item from the council agenda, saying she wanted to do so in response to legal advice the city had just received. Councilman Tony Kranz said he would support her request and others on the council agreed.

Volunteer Sonia, Cara with student Lluvia, San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts, volunteers Rose and Katelyn FROM BEER, A6 Were the offsite visits particularly illuminating — getting a behind-the-scenes look at the industry?

They really were. Classroom learning is one thing, but seeing and engaging the real thing is unbeatable. For me, the morning at Cellar 3 with Dave (Adams) was extremely insightful — the brewery operations, bar set-up and the cooler design were so hands-on and relevant for me. But even the others in the class who may not have been into these things got

behind the scenes; I’m sure they won’t look at bars and breweries the same way again.

Can you speak to the caliber of the instructors?

The instructors made the program. Having Dr. Bill (Sysak) teach some of the classes was incredible. They each were so perfectly aligned with their areas of instruction; it just shows how well structured this program is. I hope to be in touch with some of them for their expertise as I go about starting my business, which they have offered to provide.

Great people — that’s what I love about the

craft beer industry.

What did you like most about beer camp?

Personally, it has to be the tasting skills I’m refining at home with note-keeping about beer, but professionally, the front-of-the-house learnings will really be invaluable for me.

Do you have a fond memory, small-world moment, or any other anecdote to share?

I have never heard the term “crushable” used more. But really, just that so many of my

classmates came from such far points. I thought this would be predominantly local folks like me but with the guys from Columbia, New Jersey, New York and Michigan, I realized how fortunate I am to have this opportunity in my own back yard.

In 2017, SDSU’s Craft Beer Connoisseur Camp runs from July 26 to Aug. 3, while Brewery Start-Up Camp is Aug. 4-12. For more information, visit www.neverstoplearning.net/BeerCamp.

FROM COUNCIL, A1

FROM VOLLEYBALL, A1

Tony Kranz, and Blakespear asked how it went. Gasper said she then heard Blakespear say, “We’ve really got to get the lease signed,” and explained that the single statement made it a three-way meeting that violated the Brown Act. Blakespear called the accusation “completely absurd” as she would have no way of knowing the terms of the actual lease as it had literally just been worked out that afternoon, and her statement was merely a “in passing comment” that she would like to get moving on the item, which has been debated for nine months.

The lease being proposed is for 10 years at $1 per year because the city has already approved the organization’s Right of Entry, believing it to be an asset to the city culture.

Direction was eventually given for city staff to bring back a fully developed lease agreement and the item will be on a future City Council agenda.

Following the heated discussion, the special meeting was adjourned and the regular meeting featured a crowd-pleasing decision regarding downtown ficus trees, and approval of a mosaic to be donated by Surfing Madonna Oceans Project and placed at the new Moonlight State Beach Marine Safety Center, which also had its construction contract directed to be executed later at the meeting.

After four ficus trees were ordered to be cut down by the city last month, public outcry led the council to press pause on Sept. 14. Information raised by a passionate group of citizens — many of whom were in the audience Sept. 28 — along with research by city staff led to an agenda item recommending the council to direct staff to provide increased levels of maintenance for all of the 55 ficus trees in downtown Encinitas and adopt a resolution to add $54,000 to the 2016-17 budget for this cause.

The motion passed unanimously.

Later, the proposed Surfing Madonna mosaic donation was passed with enthusiastic City Council agreement.

“The generosity of the Surfing Madonna Oceans Project is apparent … and it is special to have the opportunity to display this art at Moonlight Beach,” said Kranz, a lifelong friend of the main artist on the project, Scott Walt.

For the mosaic to be displayed on a wall at the Moonlight Beach Marine Safety Center, the center must first be built and a later agenda item had the council voting unanimously to authorize the city’s Director of Public Works to execute a contract with EC Constructors Inc. to build it at a cost of $2.9 million, with leeway up to $3.1 million.

The Marine Safety Center is expected to be finished by next summer.

“I know that we are a better team than we played (against LCC).”

Last year, the Mustangs went 25-8 overall and reached the section quarterfinals in the Open Division. They started 2016 with a strong run in the Las Vegas Invitational, making it to the Gold Division semifinals.

Coming off of a Division I section title last year, LCC’s 2016 squad also played an early-season tourney in Vegas, the prestigious Durango Fall Classic. Those matches and other early outings had the Mavericks humming in their home opener.

The two teams felt each other out through the first 10 points (it was tied 5-5) before LCC began to pull away, eventually taking a 22-11 lead and finishing off the opening game when senior co-captain Bronte Zlomek hammered down one of her four kills on the night. Zlomek leads the Mavs with 75 kills so far this season.

“We were playing the game how we are supposed to, which came from (the girls) putting in a lot of work over the last week (of practice),” said LCC coach Said Souikane. “When we do a really good job in our system, we make great decisions in setting and in hitting.

“The girls you could see were excited (for their first home match of the season). They wanted to make everyone proud, and they did.”

Outstanding 6-foot-3 Maverick sophomore Morgan Lewis got some of the biggest cheers of the night after her two big blocks and five key kills, while junior Anna Visser had a pair of impressive serving runs, including an eight-point spurt that helped clinch the victory in the third game. That decisive run featured a pair of powerful spikes by Michelle Polechonski and was capped by a Visser ace that made it 23-8.

However, the two biggest stars of the night for LCC were senior Jamie McQuarrie and sophomore Maddie Wilmot. Playing in her first match with the varsity squad, the former Mavericks JV standout Wilmont got a huge ovation from the crowd and made her presence felt right away, including a serving run of seven straight points in the third set.

McQuarrie paced the hosts with 14 kills,

FROM SIGNS, A1 on Sept. 15, and one sign was spotted in a car in the Torrey Pines High School parking lot on Sept.

22.

“From a legal standpoint, this is no different than if the employees had placed bumper stickers on their cars advocating a political position,” Dill said. “Teachers generally have been permitted for many decades through case law to wear campaign buttons and other articles of clothing of a political nature provided the message does not disrupt the educational environment.”

Dill said students also share the same rights.

“Employees are not permitted to post flyers or signs in classrooms or on buildings, or otherwise actively engage in political activities during

the hours of employment,” Dill said. “We do, as a practice, remove any political signs that spring up on any of our properties during election seasons. If anyone plants a yard sign along any of our frontage, it doesn't last for very long.”

Dill’s explanation did not satisfy Berholtz.

“Regardless of the likely legality of this practice, the issue remains whether the board majority members running for re-election should condone the use of the district staff’s use of school property to support their own candidacy,” Berholtz said. “Clearly the incumbent board members have no problem with it, but I’d like to think our schools should be free from this type of political grandstanding for the sake of the students and their parents.”

San Dieguito Academy junior Kelly Burns (13) goes up for a block against La Costa Canyon senior Jamie McQuarrie in the Mavericks’ Sept. 27 home win. giving her 70 for the season.

“Our communication and passing got better throughout the game,” McQuarrie said. “We all had some nerves in our first home game, but then we settled in and got back in our rhythm.

“We’ve been working hard in practice and I think it shows on the court.”

Bright spots for SDA included some of the usual suspects, as junior outside hitter Sarah Colla, the 2015 Avocado East League MVP, put down six kills to improve to 192 for the season and senior libero Kiani Kerstetter, who is off to play at Stony Brook next season, had 11 digs, giving her 227 on the year.

Colla added three blocks and additional Mustang contributions came from senior Kiahna Holmen, whose six kills pushed

The SDUHSD election features five candidates vying for two spots on the board. Not all of the candidates agree with Berholtz’s position.

“I’m not sure what Mr. Berholtz sees as unethical,” said candidate Bob Nascenzi. “The First Amendment protects a teacher’s right to express their opinion on matters of public concern outside the classroom. Mr. Dill is correct in stating that case law protects this right as long as it does not provoke a substantial disruption of school activities.”

Candidate Beth Hergesheimer, the current board president, said she was reminded of instances in the past when student publications produced material that some felt crossed a line but was determined to be within their First Amendment rights.

her second-best team total to 103, and 6-2 sophomore middle Chloe Pejouan, who led SDA with six blocks.

“Chloe Pejouan, our middle, was playing great,” Savage said. “She was really connecting in the middle especially in the first two sets. She is a very hard worker and with her size and improvement so far this season, the sky is the limit.”

Following the Sept. 29 league match at Sage Creek, and the Scripps Ranch Tournament Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, the Mustangs will see another elite team when Torrey Pines visits SDA on Oct. 4 (4:45 p.m.).

La Costa Canyon, meanwhile, played at Canyon Crest on Sept. 29 and heads next to Carlsbad for a 4:45 p.m. Avocado West League matchup on Oct. 4.

“In those instances, their instructors, and we as a board, had to permit their free speech rights and choices,” Hergesheimer said.

“Our teachers are aware of, and practicing their rights, and as long as they work within permissible boundaries – not disrupting the educational environment – campaign messages in their cars appear to be allowed.”

Candidate Joyce Dalessandro agreed.

“While some might disagree with signs that have appeared in the windows of private vehicles in some school parking lots, it happens that it is within the First Amendment rights of the owners of those cars to display them,” Dalessandro said. “Liking the signs, or not, becomes irrelevant; I certainly wouldn't take a stand in opposition to our Constitution's

freedom of expression guarantee.”

Only Lynch agreed with Berholtz that the signs were inappropriate.

Lynch said she does not believe school parking lots should be used as “political arenas” and said they should be neutral zones rather than a zone that could create political divide among families and teachers. Lynch said she has advised her supporters not to use school parking lots, but not all have complied.

“I do believe allowance of this practice creates an appearance of impropriety, given that the incumbent board members are ultimately in charge of hiring and firing decisions and governance of school properties,” Lynch said. “As a parent of a child in the district, I would prefer for schools to be a safe haven for learning, not campaigning.”

ENCINITAS ADVOCATE - SEPTEMBER 30, 2016 - PAGE A19

FROM SUTTON, A15 For 2016-2017, and moving forward, the total cost of the salary increases is just over $6.5 million. Certificated employees (primarily teachers) account for about $4.8 million, classified about $1.3 million, and management and other employees about $407,000.

It’s mostly the Base Grant money that’s being used to pay for San Dieguito’s controversial $6.5 million yearly salary increase.

Because the cost is so high, it’s fair to question future sustainability.

Time to give parents a break Looking ahead, Dill feels confident that the district will continue to enjoy a strong financial condition.

“Every budget we bring to the board is worst-case scenario,” he said, adding that the district always budgets conservatively.

He expects rising numbers of teachers to retire in coming years, and replacing highly-paid veteran teachers with new hires is a major cost benefit.

“Districts always capture savings when teachers retire,” he said.

FROM TEACHER, A5 you.”

It’s an issue she sees all of her students struggle with during their high school years.

Berend gets most of her writing done in the summer, when school is out. During the school year, she uses portions of whichever book she is working on — she’s writing a third novel with new student-inspired characters right now — to supplement her writing lessons.

“It is so fun,” explained Berend, who also has a 16-year-old son Ben, who is a junior at LCC. It’s not just her students that can share in

HOME OF HOME OFTHE THEWEEK WEEK

Regarding the LCFF and its “significant increases in funding,” as the LAO report phrased it, Dill said, “Many don’t realize how deeply the funding was cut for education during the recession.”

The increased money has brought a sense of relief to California school districts, and most agree it is long overdue.

“The funding for education is being restored and getting back on track,” Dill said.

There’s no doubt the healthy infusion of cash at last after so many lean years is welcome. The question is whether the new money is being applied appropriately.

There’s now a $4 million surplus, and a 12.5 percent salary raise was awarded to every district employee that amounts to an extra $6.5 million in annual expenses.

Now that the accounting rundown is over, the main point is this: Many educational programs that support the academic and emotional needs of students remain unfunded by the district, left for parents to pick up the slack.

It’s time to give parents a break.

Sr. Education Writer Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@gmail.com.

Berend’s writing, as the author will be appearing at several local events in the next month.

On Oct. 15 at 11 a.m., Berend will read passages from “True Vert” at the Del Mar Library as part of Teen Read Week. Then on Oct. 23 from noon to 2 p.m., she will sign copies of the book and meet fans at Warwick’s in La Jolla.

Later that month, at the Encinitas Barnes & Noble’s 20th anniversary celebration on Oct. 29, Berend will participate on an 11 a.m. panel of featured authors and sign copies of her book.
