Scout project gives disabled kids a hand Wright used a 3D printer to create the pieces of fun, low-cost prosthetics
Local jeweler wins Halstead Grant, A5
BY CHRIS SAUR Making functional hands designed to look like those of super heroes with a 3D printer already sounds like a dream scenario for a 15-year-old boy. But local teen Evan Wright, a sophomore at San Dieguito Academy,
took the idea to the next level by finding a way to use that fun concept to benefit disabled kids. For his Eagle Scout service project for Boy Scouts, Evan spent more than a year planning, then using a 3D printer to build the pieces of prosthetic
hands, then organizing a group of 40 volunteers to assemble one hand each so they could be sent off to children around the country who are in need of the prosthetic. The biggest of two assembly events was held at Evan’s LDS church in Cardiff.
The hands, which are colorful and often designed in color schemes to match Batman, Ironman or other super heroes (or Elsa from Frozen for girls), cost just $50 to make with the 3D printer. This is huge because traditional prosthetics range from $10,000 for a hook style and up to SEE SCOUT, A23

GROUNDBREAKING EVENT HELD FOR MARINE SAFETY CENTER
E
ncinitas Mayor Kristin Gaspar spoke at a Nov. 2 groundbreaking event commemorating the start of construction on the new $3.7 million Marine Safety Center at Moonlight Beach. Gaspar noted that an upgrade was long overdue as the Center serves as the headquarters for all Encinitas Lifeguard beach operations and first aid services for city beaches that host more than 3.5 million visitors per year and up to 30,000 in a single weekend during the business summer months. The rest of the City Council members — pictured are Deputy Mayor Lisa Shaffer and Council member Mark Muir — were on hand as were other city officials, lifeguards and representatives of the design, engineering and construction team. The former lifeguard tower, originally built by lifeguard staff in 1953, was demolished on Oct. 24.

“It’s a comprehensive report, it’s very detailed and it’s a great road map,” Council member Mark Muir said in his comments. “One of the concerns I have is the implementation schedule … if it’s not tied closely to a financial plan, it becomes a book on a shelf.”
A list of goals, with general timelines lasting through the next 10 years, is laid out in the Master Plan. “The one thing I can say about my department and our leadership in the department, we’re doers,” SEE PLAN, A22

Fire destroys building at Encinitas Campaign spending strong in Encinitas races school, no damage to classrooms An early morning, two-alarm fire at Oak Crest Middle School in Encinitas destroyed the administration building Oct. 29, but caused no damage to classrooms, according to authorities. The San Diego County Sheriff’s bomb/arson squad was sent to investigate the cause of the fire and assess the damage. A security guard on duty at the school in the 600 block of Balour Drive noticed the fire at about 3:40 a.m. and called it in to the Fire
Department, according to Fire Marshal Anita Pupping. When firefighters arrived at the school, they saw flames coming from the doors and windows of the building and immediately called for a second-alarm response, sending in reinforcements from the Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Carlsbad fire departments, Pupping said. School was open Monday since no damage was done to classrooms.
Pedestrian killed by train in Encinitas A woman was killed when she ran into the path of an oncoming Amtrak train in Encinitas, according to authorities. The death was reported on Oct. 29 at 7:40 p.m. on the tracks near Sanford Street and North Vulcan Avenue, said San Diego County sheriff’s Lt. Robert Smith. A northbound Amtrak train was going
approximately 84 miles per hour when the engineer saw a woman run toward the railroad tracks, said Deputy Jason Burk of the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. The train went into emergency braking, but was unable to stop and struck the woman, who ran onto the tracks. She was pronounced dead at the scene, Burk said.
SWAT standoff ends with suspect in custody A man is under arrest following a SWAT standoff in Encinitas, which began just after 4 p.m. on Nov. 2. According to a news release, deputies from the North Coastal Sheriff’s Station responded to reports of a disturbance at an apartment complex in the 2300 block of Carol View Drive and, upon arriving on scene, encountered a man with a rifle inside an apartment with an 8-year-old child. The man refused to come out, but deputies continued to talk to the suspect as the Sheriff’s Special Enforcement Detail (SED/SWAT) and
Crisis Negotiation Team (CNT) were called to assist with the incident. The suspect disobeyed repeated calls for surrender before deputies, with the help of the CNT, were finally able to convince him to drop his rifle. That gave SED/SWAT deputies the opportunity to use less nonlethal “bean bag” rounds on the suspect, who was taken into custody with minor injuries. The boy was not hurt. The apartment complex was briefly evacuated during the standoff. — Submitted press release
BY BARBARA HENRY Encinitas Councilwoman Catherine Blakespear has out-raised and out-spent her opponent Paul Gaspar in the race to become the city’s next Mayor, despite three of the four political action organizations active in the Mayoral campaign working on behalf of her opponent. Blakespear’s campaign had raised $56,670 and spent $32,064 by Oct. 22 — the final date covered by the last round campaign finance forms due before the Nov. 8 election. Blakespear, who’s two years into her first term as a councilwoman, went into the final weeks before the election with more than $24,000 in available cash on hand, her forms indicate. Gaspar, a physical therapy business owner whose wife Kristin Gaspar is the city’s current Mayor, had raised $40,2015 and spent $27,625 over the course of his campaign, his financial forms indicate. Nearly all of Blakespear’s campaign contributions came from Encinitas residents, who typically gave her $100 to $250 donations. Gaspar’s donation amounts were similar, but his donors included many people who live outside the city and work in medical services or have other connections to his physical therapy business. The two candidates also differed when it came to the loans they gave their campaigns. Blakespear loaned her campaign a total of $6,700, early in the year. Gaspar donated $10,000 to his campaign during the latest period covered by the financial forms and gave $9,225 earlier in the year, for a total of nearly $20,000 — about half his total campaign money. In addition to candidate spending, there are
four political action groups actively supporting candidates in the Encinitas Mayoral and Council races this year. Two of them — the Deputy Sheriff’s Association of San Diego County and the North County Leadership Council — have bought advertising that supports Gaspar. The third organization — the Public Safety Advocates — is paying for advertising that opposes Blakespear and Councilman Tony Kranz. The Leadership Council, which recently received donations from medical professionals, reported spending just under $5,500 on its efforts to elect Gaspar, Muir and Council candidate Phil Graham. The Deputy Sheriff’s Association of San Diego County reported spending $1,804 on its efforts to elect Gaspar, Muir and Council candidate Tony Brandenburg. The Public Safety Advocates, whose recent contributors represent real estate interests, spent $4,350 on mailers opposing Blakespear and Kranz. The final organization — the Encinitas Firefighters Association — is backing Blakespear. On their forms, the firefighters indicated that they had spent just under $2,300 by Oct. 22 on their efforts to elect Blakespear as well Kranz and Councilman Mark Muir, a retired city fire chief. There are five candidates seeking three Council seats in November — Brandenburg, Graham, Kranz, Muir and Tasha Boerner Horvath. As of Oct. 22, Graham had raised $41,836, and spent $40,514; Muir had raised $31,661 and spent $12,638; Boerner Horvath had raised $28,020 and spent $23,058; Kranz had raised $24,686 and spent $13,615; and Brandenburg had raised $14,743 and spent $14,348. — Barbara Henry writes for The San Diego Union-Tribune

City of Encinitas reports a $4.4 million carryover The city of Encinitas closed fiscal year 2015-16 with an ending General Fund balance that was $4.4 million higher than anticipated. The favorable budget outcome was the result of increased revenue from property taxes due to solid growth in property values, according to a city news release, and revenue collected from sales and transient occupancy taxes also exceeded projections for the fiscal year. Additionally, expenditures fell $2.4 million below projections primarily due to personnel cost savings and lower than anticipated expenditures for contract services. A significant portion of the cost savings
was the result of the City Council approving its Work Plan that utilized contractual services to backfill for staff working on work plan projects. A comprehensive list of these projects can be found at encinitasca.gov, while residents can view the financial results and current annual budget at encinitasca.opengov.com. The release goes on to say that “the positive financial results affirm the city’s commitment to maintaining financial health through the efficient allocation of resources. Reserves in the General Fund for contingencies and revenue stabilization are fully funded and total $13.2 million. The SEE CARRYOVER, A16

Local jeweler wins prestigious Halstead Grant Grandics mixes nice designs with a social conscious BY CHRIS SAUR Friends and customers already knew that Encinitas resident Niki Grandics — the 27-year-old owner of ENJI Studio Jewelry — has a successful, socially-responsible business with beautiful handmade merchandise. Last month, she was officially recognized with the 11th annual Halstead Grant, which is awarded for jewelry design excellence and business strategy acumen amongst enterprising new jewelers. “I had been debating applying for it,” Grandics told the Encinitas Advocate. “But I met (Halstead President Hilary Halstead Scott) at a conference in Boston … she came over to my booth at a show and bought a pair of earrings and said ‘Hey I really like your stuff.’” That “stuff,” jewelry Grandics describes as a mix of geometric and minimal elements with a raw edge to it, has been influenced by her interesting life growing up. Grandics was born in Hungary and moved to the U.S. with her parents when she was 8, living first in L.A. and moving to Carlsbad a year later. After growing up in North County, in 2014 Grandics moved back to Encinitas, close enough to Cardiff Beach to take her dog Dio to run in the surf. When the family first moved to the U.S., Grandics’ parents still had business in Hungary so she was back there often and spent most summers there until high school. She also took a year off between high school
and college at San Diego State, and spent that year in Hungary. “Especially when I was a kid, it was very much a different world in each place. Southern California was so different than Hungary, which was just getting out of communism. That definitely had an influence … I’m drawn to contrast even in a design sense.” And throughout that childhood, Grandics was making art, up to and including her college years at San Diego State. “I’ve been drawing since I could pick up a pencil and then I was also doing glass blowing before I started jewelry,” Grandics said. While focusing on wearable glass art in her early years at SDSU, she needed to learn jewelry-making techniques to make them truly wearable, and that got her hooked on making jewelry. “One thing led to the next and then I sat down on the (jewelry-making) bench and said ‘This is where I need to be,’” Grandics explained. “It was always more serious than just something to do for fun.” Thinking she would continue as an artist, Grandics worked in a few galleries before deciding that wasn’t for her. After committing to make and sell her own jewelry line for a living, Grandics got her first break when she earned the Windgate Fellowship Award from the Center for Craft, Creativity and Design, which
Encinitas jeweler Niki Grandics. recognizes innovative upcoming talent in the fields of jewelry, glass, furniture and textile arts. This honor came right after she graduated from SDSU in 2014 — with degrees in applied design and marketing — and the grant money allowed her to travel to Europe to learn her craft, as well as get her business started when she returned to the U.S. “I was able to do a workshop with a really well-known Dutch goldsmith and then another internship over there (in the Netherlands),” Grandics said. “Then once I came back, I was able to use the money to set up my shop, go to conferences and exhibit at some trade shows.” She also went back to school, getting a scholarship to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) graduate jewelry program,
completing the preparation she needed for ENJI to take off. One of the most important parts of Grandics’ business is its commitment to giving back to the community. In addition to using high-quality, nickel-free materials — as well as recycled and sustainable silver, recycled or Fairmined Gold and recycled or lab grown diamonds whenever possible as a member of the Ethical Metalsmiths organization — ENJI works with local charities such as the San Diego Family Justice Center’s Voices program, Camp Hope and Patheways for Hope. Grandics will design pieces that raise money for specific charities and also donates a portion of sales. It’s all part of an overall business model that Halstead recognized as a finalist in 2015 and the 2016 winner. “Niki … has all the right tools plus a distinct gift for design,” Halstead Scott said in a news release. “It’s amazing to see how much entries have changed in the decade (plus) that we have been sponsoring the grant. New jewelers are using their social media savvy to learn about their customers and engage with them in exciting ways to grow their businesses.” The Halstead Grant competition began in 2006 as a way to bring the business plan concept to the jewelry community and encourage makers to establish clear goals and measurable steps towards self-sufficiency, according to a release. Grandics’ jewelry is available online and in some stores, and her work is on display at nikigrandics.com.

One-on-One with EUSD Farm lab director Mim Michelove Q&A BY LISA DEADERICK Mim Michelove has long been interested in health and nutrition, but came to her current career after first pursuing celebrity photography and welding. The first allowed her to observe people and behaviors along with being around well-known personalities. The second career let her create with her hands while still using architectural concepts, the way she did in her photography. Once she and her husband started a family, though, she was ready to move on. “Once I had a child, my longtime interests in healthy food and healthy planet came sharply into focus as a fundamental tenet of parenting,” she says. “The natural next step was to find the right place to live, and a home where we could grow our food and literally set down our community roots.” She’s now immersed in the world of nutrition, gardening, farming and environmentalism through a number of roles, including that of director of the Encinitas Union School District’s Farm Lab. She provides education to the district’s students and the community, along with designing gardens for schools in the district and working on various boards and committees related to preserving the environment. Michelove, 56, lives in Encinitas with her husband and their 14-year-old son. She took
EUSD Farm Lab director Mim Michelove. some time to talk about the Farm Lab ... Q: Why did you choose to focus on the environment and nutrition? A: While I was a vegetarian the majority of my adult life, with a three-year foray into veganism, there is nothing like having children to make you keenly aware of the importance of clean food, air and water when it comes to basic health. Not everyone in the world (or our communities) has these basic rights met, and once you learn about how food can improve immediate and long-term physical and mental health, it becomes a natural progression to go beyond our own children

to try to provide educational opportunities for a whole classroom, a school, a district, and the greater community. Q: What is the Farm Lab? A: It’s a satellite school on a 10-acre site that houses an innovative new campus and educational garden, a community garden, a public orchard and fields where food is grown for the district’s school lunch program. During a full-day visit, kindergarten through sixth-grade students from each of the nine district schools visit Farm Lab for a full day and receive experiential lessons that demonstrate design, research, engineering, art, math and science (DREAMS) with a focus on nutrition and the environment.

actions, their health and the health of the planet. Q: What are your responsibilities as director of the Farm Lab? A: A typical day may include anything from working with architects to writing grants, developing plans for classrooms, working with farmers on a crop plan or harvest schedule to collaborating with the director of child nutrition services on how to best implement the district’s Farm to School program, which I coordinate for year-round implementation. Over the summer, the farmers harvest over 300 pounds of Farm Lab tomatoes and peppers every week. We deliver the bounty to Child Nutrition Services where they roast them to create sauce that is frozen for the following year’s marinara and scratch pizza menu items. You may also find me studying engaging curricular ideas in science or the importance of incorporating the natural world into education, or giving tours to the many school districts from around North America that are interested in implementing similar educational opportunities. Q: What goes into developing a school garden program? A: The first, and most important, issues to address are location and existing support of the project. Location is key for obvious reasons, a garden needs to get the right amount of sun for what will be grown and it needs access to proper irrigation. Ideally, there is also room for expansion as the garden becomes successfully integrated into the educational program. At minimum, having support from a principal, teacher or the (Parent Teacher Association) offers the hope for sustainability. Nationally, we see that reliance on one champion is not enough to keep a garden program going. SEE MICHELOVE, A16

Botanic Garden gets $2.1 million for improvements The San Diego Botanic Garden will be able to celebrate its past and prepare for its future thanks to a $2.1 million construction program approved this month by the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. The job includes remodeling two existing structures — the Larabee House and the Lawn House — and building two new ones: an administration building and maintenance facility. The garden in Encinitas is home to a world-class collection of exotic and native plants and trees as well as a children’s garden. The County of San Diego owns the 28-acre site on Quail Gardens Drive and for decades has leased it to the nonprofit garden for $1 a year. “In our increasingly urbanized environment, places like San Diego Botanic Garden are more important than ever,” County Supervisor Dave Roberts said in a news release. “I’m so pleased to have worked with stakeholders to identify needs on this county-owned property. My colleagues backed me with unanimous approval to fund the project.” The 5-0 vote on Oct. 19 authorized the funding, directed the county’s staff to seek designers and builders and to send the project to bid. Design work is set to begin this fall and construction is expected to be finished in the spring of 2018. Toward the northwest corner of the property, on a barren site of less than 1 acre that’s used for overflow parking, two new buildings are planned. One of them would be for offices and botanic research. The other would house maintenance equipment and materials. The new space would allow for removing staff offices and equipment from the Larabee House and the Lawn House so those historic structures could be turned over to visitors.

This graphic shows where the San Diego Botanic Garden’s new administration building and maintenance facility will be constructed. The Larabee House, a popular location for weddings and other events, currently has the garden’s horticultural director using one of the bedrooms for his office and other staff members and volunteers operating out of makeshift space added to side of the house. That addition would be removed and workers would relocate so the
entire Larabee House could be spruced up and turned over to the public. The Lawn House, will become a library and interpretive center and be available for receptions and rentals for visitors, of which the Garden had 250,000 last year. — Submitted press release

ON VIEW THROUGH JANUARY 2, 2017 The Uses of Photography examines a constellation of artists who were based in San Diego between the late 1960s and the mid-1980s and whose experiments with photography opened the medium to a profusion of new strategies and subjects. These artists sought artistic media and formats adequate to address their turbulent era and its pressing questions.

M C C: S H, G A Travis Williamson (pictured below, right) is thriving at Columbia University in New York. Richard Huizar (pictured below, left) is excelling at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Mass. And Elizabeth Egel (pictured below, center) continues to shine at UCLA. All three are among the countless MiraCosta College graduates who have transferred to some of the top universities in the world. And all three underscore the success of MiraCosta students. “The education I got at MiraCosta College prepared me for Columbia,” said Williamson, who is pursuing his bachelor’s degree in political science. “Some of the professors I had at MiraCosta were just as good, if not better, than some of the professors I’ve had at Columbia. All of the instructors at MiraCosta are invested in making sure their students succeed.” It’s not just the instructors who are invested in ensuring MiraCosta College students succeed. Counselors at the Transfer Center are committed to helping students transition to a four-year college or university and making sure they are prepared for the rigorous upper division course work. Counselors in the Career Center assist students in learning the skills to create cover letters and resumes, then using these skills to seize volunteer and internship opportunities. This hands-on support worked for MiraCosta graduate Richard Huizar. Huizar graduated from MiraCosta College in 2014 as an honors scholar and is now a mechanical engineering major on track to earn his master’s degree. MiraCosta College, he said, prepared him well for his success at MIT, which has produced more than 80 Nobel laureates and nearly three-dozen astronauts. “MiraCosta College is an amazing place with a positive environment and excellent faculty,” said Huizar. “MiraCosta gave me the
Richard Huizar
opportunity to transfer to a great school and showed that I can do anything I want.” Elizabeth Egel graduated from MiraCosta in spring 2015 and transferred to UCLA the following fall. An applied mathematics major, she spent this summer as an intern with Northrup Grumman in Rancho Bernardo, learning the ins and outs of budgeting and business forecasting. “MiraCosta sets up students to transfer to any college they want to go to, and I had an wonderful experience there. The support services are beyond compare and the Honors Scholar Program really helped me develop,” she said, referring to a program comprising specialized courses designed to help highly motivated students reach their full academic potential. “MiraCosta College helped me get into UCLA and made the transition a lot easier.” In fact, when Egel graduates from UCLA in the spring of 2017, she will be one of the 48 percent of UC graduates with STEM degrees who began their postsecondary education at a community college. “If you’re getting a full ride to wherever you want to go, then of course starting out at a four-year college makes sense,” said Huizar, who served as a student ambassador at MiraCosta. “But if you’re uncertain about what you want to study or if you’re uncertain about what you want to do for a career and don’t have the financing to cover your college education, MiraCosta is a better option. It can help you get to just about any four-year college or university.” MiraCosta College (760) 757.2121 | www.miracosta.edu | Email: pio@miracosta.edu Oceanside Campus: 1 Barnard Drive, Oceanside, CA 92056

PREPARING STUDENTS TO TRANSFER
As the cost of attending University of California and State University schools rises, more students are starting their education at the community college level. MiraCosta College helps to ensure that students who can’t afford the high price of a university still have the opportunity to succeed in college and careers.
PREPARING STUDENTS FOR CAREERS
MiraCosta College is an essential part of the North County economy. We are a critical partner to local employers in biotech, manufacturing, and other industries that help our area and economy thrive.
SERVING OUR VETERANS
MiraCosta provides job placement, job training and counseling to approximately 1,800 Navy, Marine and other military veterans and their families each year.
COST OF MEASURE MM To continue providing a high-quality education for local students, the MiraCosta Community College District has placed MEASURE MM, a local facilities bond measure, on the ballot this November. The measure may generate $455 million to upgrade our college and will cost approximately $14.99 per $100,000 of assessed value (not market value) per year.
THE MEASURE WOULD PROVIDE LOCALLY-CONTROLLED FUNDING TO: Improve the Veterans Center to provide job training, job placement, counseling and support services Upgrade career training facilities for science, health care, technology and skilled trades Update instructional technology for improved student learning in core subjects like math, science and technology Improve access for students with disabilities Repair or replace leaky roofs, worn-out oors and restrooms, old rusty plumbing and faulty electrical systems Update science centers and labs to allow for state-of-the-art courses in biology, chemistry and physical sciences
FISCAL ACCOUNTABILITY WOULD BE REQUIRED All funds would stay in our community to support our local community college and students No funds could be taken by the State No funds could be spent on salaries or pensions

FROM MICHELOVE, A6
FROM CARRYOVER, A4
Q: What do kids learn about nutrition? A: I’m a big believer that children learn, and retain, more information through experiential education than being told or even reading facts. There is a cliché phrase that we use in the garden ed world: “When children grow it, they eat it.” Sometimes a cliché is there for a reason. Data shows that children who garden are more likely to try more foods and open their palates to healthier options. It is far more engaging and a fun way to learn and to develop lifelong healthy habits. Q: Tell us about the fruit grove. A: This grove shows residents that removing turf, using drip irrigation and incorporating fruit trees in the landscape is practical, beautiful and productive. We selected commonly found, low-water trees that one could plant at home, but found special varieties for this public grove, including black and green coastal olives, loquat, a couple of pineapple guava varieties, a locally bred fig called strawberry jam and pink and yellow pomegranates. Even in a drought, planting young trees is beneficial and can save water. They help to reduce soil erosion, stabilize soils and significantly reduce storm water runoff. Fruit trees shade landscapes and, eventually, structures to help minimize water and energy use. They provide clean air and cooler temperatures — all while supplying nutritious food. Q: Have you noticed changes in the students at these schools from before a garden was installed compared to afterward? A: As the district grew its commitment to student health and wellness, we got salad bars at every school and students were excited to fill them with school-grown bounty. As students grew the food, the numbers of students who participated in the school lunch program increased. The students are not only savvy gardeners, they have added their voices to what goes into their lunches. Child Nutrition Services is constantly making school lunches healthier, more locally sourced and more fun. — Lisa Deaderick writes for The San Diego Union-Tribune.

Gardening with Evelyn BY EVELYN WEIDNER
Some Bank Plants you can bank on
S
uccessfully planting a bank or a slope can be a challenge; steep and hard to water, a pain to work on. Here are some ideas. California natives and Mediterranean plants are your obvious good choices. Planting now will allow the winter rains to help get them established. After they are growing well, the summer lower watering suits them just fine. Succulents take almost no care and do well on banks. Choose the best for your site. Here are some suggestions from experts plus some favorites of Evelyn. Sabina Hildebrand is Weidner’s Gardens succulent expert. Here are Sabine’s succulent choices. For the ground-cover look, try creeping Sedums, which grow almost effortless in dry soil. Because they root along the stem, it makes them an ideal choice for very steep banks and sunny slopes. There is no need for supplemental irrigation, their only requirement is good drainage. Many colors, shapes and sizes can give you a real pallet of textures and tones. If you want to mix in some height try some of the new Aloes. They bloom almost all year and grow pups all around the mom. Aloe “Cynthia Giddy” and Aloe Rudikoppie are just two of the many that Sabine likes. Both can take shade or full sun and you will have some blooms throughout the year. There are lots of choices, so ask the experts what is best for you. Here are some of Evelyn’s favorites that are not succulents. California Lilacs (Ceanothus) are one of the most beautiful of the California natives — deep blue or white spring flowers that cover the
plant. Ceanothus can be large shrubs but they can also be low ground-hugging bank plants. Yankee Point is one of the best. It stays low and one plant can make a 5- to 10-foot spread. Another interesting bank plant is Russelia equisetiformis, which means foliage like horse hair. This grows to be a big shrub with long sweeping branches of grass-like foliage that will be covered with bright red tubular flowers from March to December. Hummingbirds go crazy. Planted at the top of a slope, the branches can hang down three to four feet. Mia, of Cedros Gardens fame, also has some super suggestions. For partial sun, try Creeping Morning Glory Convolvulus mauritanicus. For west sun, all the Lantanas work, but New Gold is Mia’s first choice. Old-fashioned purple Lantana will bloom all year. For that hottest south side, both Mia and Evelyn like the Australian native Grevilleas. Mia’s favorite is Grevillea Mt. Tamoritha and Evelyn likes Coastal Gem. Both have pink flowers, are low, wide spreading and like the coast. Hint, Grevillea’s love poor granite type well draining soils. Do not feed them high phosphate fertilizers. That’s the middle number on your fertilizer label. In fact, the less fertilizer, the better. A final word of advice — ask before you buy. Use Google for images and information but note where the site is from. UK is not the same as California. Always give good loving care until your plants are well established. Happy gardening from Evelyn.

Vote yes on Measure B for better housing opportunities, less traffic Having served on the SANDAG Board of Directors for about 10 years, including two years as Board Chairman, I can tell you that it is nonsensical to believe that stopping or limiting home construction will improve traffic. In fact, witness the past decade, new home construction is at historical lows and traffic has progressively gotten worse and worse because people are forced to commute long distances to jobs. We should support Measure B on the Nov. 8 ballot specifically because it allows for greater home construction east of the I-15 taking some of the growth pressure off of our coastal communities in North San Diego County. Measure B is an important step towards relieving the supply and demand imbalance as it will provide housing that is affordable to the majority of San Diego families and residents, and is absolutely critical for San Diego’s current and future generations. Measure B has gone above and beyond what any project has done in the history of San Diego County and will also provide $16 million in road improvements and fully fund a new K-8 school. Additionally, this new community will not cost taxpayers a single cent and will privately pay for all road, fire, sewer, water and school improvements in the area. The
“precedent” this project creates is the provision of well-planned, high-quality, affordable housing to address our regions current and future housing needs. The North County Leadership Council has unanimously endorsed Measure B and I ask you all to support and vote for Measure B. Jerome Stocks North County Leadership Council Chairman
League of Women Voters opposes B The League of Women Voters supports policies that provide decent homes and a suitable living environment for all residents of San Diego County. Though the well-funded “Yes on A” campaign presents the Lilac Hills development as the answer to San Diego’s housing needs, it is not the solution. The League opposes Measure B and we ask you to do the same. The League of Women Voters believes this project is inconsistent with the county’s General Plan. Though the General Plan includes provisions for housing development, this project is not suitable for the location. This is a rural area of farm fields, lacking the infrastructure required for the proposed development of 1,746 homes. In the county’s General Plan, the area is zoned for 110 homes. Ballot-box land use planning falls far short of the systematic approach required for county land use decisions arrived at collaboratively with community planners. Don’t reward developers who choose to
bypass this process. Join the League of Women Voters in voting no on Measure B! Jeanne Brown President LWV San Diego Martha Cox, President LWV North County San Diego
Nasty Election I have been a resident of Encinitas for 32 years. I voted for Cityhood in 1986 and enjoyed seeing our little city grow and mature. City government has always been interesting and vibrant — but always collegial. This election cycle, however, has changed all that. I don’t know if it’s the ‘Trump” effect or not, but it’s ugly out there. My husband has been an active volunteer for one of the candidates in our local Encinitas election. He has been the one placing the candidate’s large signs around the community. Before placing them anywhere, he checked with the city office in charge of code enforcement to be sure he followed all the rules. In addition, any of the signs placed at retail establishments were with the permission of the landlord. In one night this week, nine of the signs were torn down and discarded or destroyed. The signs put up for other offices or other candidates were left in place. This is shameless behavior and does not reflect well on our city. I am hoping that after the election is over, civility will return to our fair city’s government. Joan Gosewisch New Encinitas
Breast Cancer Awareness: Every cancer is different
C
ancer is not one disease but many, and new genomic tools are showing that tumors are more diverse than anyone anticipated. For breast cancer patients, that diversity can have a profound impact on their treatment plan and how their cancer responds. Cancer care is a partnership between patients and their physicians, and that process begins with prevention. Women can decrease their risk by making sure they get enough vitamin D. The body manufactures this essential nutrient when exposed to sunlight, but even in Southern California, not everyone is getting enough. “Many women assume they have an adequate vitamin D level if they’re frequently in the sun, but that’s not always the case,” says Sonia Ali, M.D., a medical oncologist at Scripps Clinic Torrey Pines, whose practice focuses on breast and gynecologic cancers. “Ask your primary care doctor to test your vitamin D level to make sure you’re not deficient.” Dr. Ali also recommends regular, moderate-intensity exercise, which has been shown to reduce the risk of breast and other cancers. Early detection Choosing when to get a mammogram is extremely personal. Women should talk to their primary care doctors, as they are best equipped to
TO YOUR HEALTH assess risk and optimize a surveillance strategy. “There are genetic cancer syndromes,” says Dr. Ali. “If you have a close relative with ovarian cancer, male breast cancer, or multiple relatives with breast cancer, you could be at increased risk of having an underlying mutation.” For these individuals, genetic testing may be in order. If an underlying mutation is identified, there are additional screening guidelines. Dr. Ali also encourages women to express any concerns they may have to their doctors. “If you’re doing a self-exam and find something that’s abnormal, be sure to bring it to the attention of your physician and make sure it’s looked at,” says Dr. Ali. “Nothing trumps knowing your body and knowing what’s new and what’s changed.” Diagnosis and treatment Receiving a cancer diagnosis is scary and will naturally trigger intense emotions. The first step is to gather and understand all the information before deciding on a course of action. Cancer does not grow overnight, and patients should proceed carefully. It’s also important to remember that each breast
cancer is unique, with differing profiles and mutations and diverging clinical paths. “It’s natural for friends and family members to give well-intentioned advice based on their experience with cancer and treatment,” notes Dr. Ali. “However, patients must keep in mind that not every cancer –and more specifically, not every breast cancer – is the same.” New genomic technologies are driving this lesson home. Breast oncologists now have diagnostic tests that can analyze individual tumors on a genetic level. The results can help guide treatment decisions. Cancer treatments are also a concern for many patients but, again, the stories do not always match the reality. “A lot of women will say something like: ‘Dad had cancer, I know what chemotherapy is like,’” notes Dr. Ali. “But there are many different types of chemotherapy regimens, and even people who get the same drugs often don’t have the same reactions. Don’t take someone else’s experience and assume it will be your own.” “To Your Health” is brought to you by the physicians and staff at Scripps Health.

FROM RACES, A11 an appetite early in the day by participating in the Family Mile Fun Run on Nov. 24. Registration begins at 7 a.m.; at 8 a.m., participants run a lap around the racetrack and finish in the winners circle, where they have their pictures taken. There are other activities that morning, as well, such as the Helen Woodward Puppy Race, arts and crafts booths, face painting, entertainers and games. For those who register by Nov. 18, the cost is $22 for adults, $12 for children ages 4-15, and free for kids 3 and younger. Those who wish to enjoy holiday fare during the races can partake in a three-course meal and bottomless mimosas or champagne. The $100-per-person package includes Turf Club admission and a table during the races, which begin at 11 a.m. For more information on the fun run and the meal, go to www.dmtc.com. Craft Beer, Cider & Food Truck Festival: Two events become one this year, as more than 30 food trucks and 100 varieties of craft beers and seasonal ales and ciders will be offered from noon to 4 p.m. Nov. 26 in the Seaside Concert area. It’s $20 for five, 7-ounce beer tastings; a pre-sale package that includes five beer samples and racetrack admission is available for $20 through Nov. 13. Go to www.dmtc.com. Giveaways: Sandals that sport a custom Del Mar Racing logo will be distributed on Nov. 19, and a fleece blanket that features a design of the paddock will be given away Dec. 3. Both are free with paid admission. Daybreak at Del Mar: Racing fans can watch morning workouts while eating breakfast from 8 to 10 a.m. Saturdays in the Clubhouse Terrace Restaurant. Admission is free, but there is a $10 parking fee. Taste of the Turf Club: Formerly known as Bing + Bubbles + Brunch, Chef Brian Malarkey will prepare different menus each week, composed of an appetizer, entree, dessert and bottomless mimosas or Chandon. Cost is $100 per person, which also includes seating at a Turf Club table. “Freebies” and discounts: Every Sunday is “Free & Fun,” as Diamond Club members receive free Stretch Run admission; a free program; a free seat; and half price on
domestic drafts, Bloody Marys and Champagne Splits. Seniors 62 and older receive the same freebies on Thursdays, with a valid ID. And as with past meets, there will be a “Pony Express” deal ($11 for a roundtrip Coaster ride and admission); and “30-for-20,” in which people can buy $30 of script for $20 that can be used for food and beverages at the track. Lucky stars This season, there will be a new twist to the Pick Six bet, which costs $2 and involves selecting the winners of the last six races of the day on the card – a not-so-easy feat. “(The Pick Six) has been very popular over the years, and has the biggest payout,” Bahr noted. The Pick Six now will offer a “Single Ticket Jackpot,” in which those picking all six winners will get 70 percent of the pool, but instead of the remaining 30 percent going to those with consolation tickets (five of six winners) as in the standard Pick Six, it will be split two ways. Those with consolation tickets will be paid 15 percent of the pool, while the final 15 percent will be carried forward until there is one Pick Six winning ticket, at which time that day’s total Pick Six pool – along with the complete carryover pool – will be paid to that winner. “While the Pick Six used to be the only exotic wagering game in town, the landscape has changed and players are looking for new bet concepts,” Del Mar President and Chief Executive Officer Joe Harper said. “We believe the ‘Single Ticket Jackpot’ will reinvigorate California’s Pick Six and produce some life-changing payouts.” To get some handicapping tips, racegoers can attend Weekend Handicapping Seminars in the Seaside Terrace; or Newcomers Seminars every race day, one hour before first post in the Plaza de Mexico. More advanced bettors may want to test their skills in the Handicapping Challenge, set for Nov. 12-13, with $125,000 in prizes. It’s a $4,000 buy-in, with $2,500 designated for a live bankroll and $1,500 toward the prize pool. Contact Bahr at chris@dmtc.com. “We have planned really great events that appeal to everyone (this season),” Bahr said. “We’re looking forward to having a great meet.”

FROM PLAN, A1 Parks and Recreation Director Jennifer Campbell said. “When we have a list, we want to look at it, we want to be thoughtful in our execution and our process, and we want to produce quality product. “We don’t want this to sit on a shelf. I am hopeful that in 10 years, we are able to look at this list of goals and objectives, and they are all crossed off.” Campbell added that City Council approval at the Oct. 26 meeting was a necessary first step, which will be followed by an implementation plan, including cost information. And that first step was a big one. With the Parks Master Plan intended to be used as guide to prioritize and develop facility plans and recreation programs in Encinitas for the next 10 years, its development included two key components — outreach and research. Working with GreenPlay, the city conducted public focus group meetings, listening sessions and direct mail and open surveys, in addition to soliciting input from City Commissions, not just Parks and Recreation but Youth and Planning as well. With an initial list of community priorities, the city and its consultants did a comprehensive facilities inventory and a level-of-service analysis to see
what’s already in place in Encinitas and what could be added. The comparisons between the research and outreach resulted in a list of community priorities which serve as the basis for the more-detailed Parks, Beaches, Trails and Open Space Master Plan, which can be viewed at http://tinyurl.com/j94senq. Among the top priorities were to preserve and acquire open space, beaches and natural areas; maintain, repair and upgrade facilities; add amenities to facilities; increase connectivity to trails, beaches and parks; increase programming opportunities; increase marketing, branding and awareness; pursue options for an aquatic facility; and increase opportunities for active recreation. As it was the top priority on the list — and something the City Council had discussed at previous meetings — preserving and acquiring open space was something several Council members wanted to jump on as soon as possible. While the agenda suggested that the Council merely receive, discuss and approve the Parks Mast Plan, the Council members went a step further with their unanimous motion, directing the City Manager to prepare an implementation plan (as part of the next budget discussion) to include an inventory of open space potential in Encinitas.
Encinitas Fire Department gets good rating The Encinitas Fire Department recently announced that the Insurance Service Office (ISO) has recently upgraded the department’s Public Protection Classification (PPC) to a 2/2X. The last PPC survey was taken in 2012 and gave the department a rating of 3/9. The new rating of 2/2X will be effective Feb. 1, 2017. The ISO reviews communities’ public fire suppression capabilities and develops a classification for insurance companies, allowing them to assess the risk of local fire protection. The rating is used to establish appropriate fire insurance premiums for residential and commercial properties. ISO surveyed 48,632 communities nationwide. Less than 3 percent of these communities have a class of 2 or lower, which now include Encinitas. The PPC rating system runs on a scale from 1 (highest) to 10 (lowest). The components
affecting the score include the performance of the fire department, the available water supply and the communications systems in place (i.e., dispatch). Over the past several years, the department has been working hard to improve its rating via efforts in community risk reduction, according to a news release and also focused efforts on first-alarm response and initial attack to minimize potential loss. Encinitas was given a split classification of 2/2X to reflect the different scores assigned to different areas of the city. The first number (2) applies to properties within five road miles of a fire station and 1,000 feet of a hydrant (most of Encinitas). The second number (2X) applies to properties within 5 miles of a fire station but beyond 1,000 feet of a fire hydrant (Olivenhain). — Submitted press release

Local 15-year-old Evan Wright displays the end result of his Eagle Scout service project — 40 prosthetic hands for kids ages 4-10. After using a 3D printer to create the pieces, Evan assembled a group of volunteers to put them together so they can be shipped to disabled kids around the country. FROM SCOUT, A1 $50,000 for a more lifelike version. What’s more, many insurance companies only cover the cost for one hand per person in a lifetime — not exactly practical for child who will eventually grow into an adult and need a different size. When Evan was looking for a project idea, he stumbled across an organization called E-Nable, which had created a file that would direct a 3D printer to create the hands. Being a fan of technology and engineering — and knowing he could help out some kids in need — Evan knew right then that he had his project. “I wanted to have an Eagle project that was academic-based because I’m more of an academic, artist, engineer kind of student,” Evan told the Encinitas Advocate. “E-Nable makes these files … but they need people to print out the pieces and assemble the hands.” His family had a 3D printer and his parents said they would give him $500, enough to build 10 hands. But instead, Evan posted a GoFundMe page for $1,000. He easily passed that goal and readjusted it to $2,000, which he was able to reach. That wasn’t the end either, as GoFundMe the company liked his project so much that it contributed another $1,000. With $3,000 to use, Evan will be able to continue to make hands beyond the 40 that he and his volunteers assembled as part of his Eagle Scout project. The hands each take a day to print — and errors create a lot of instances of having to start over — so after beginning production at the beginning of last summer, Evan was finally ready to hold a pair of assembly events to actually make the hands ready to send to E-Nable in Alabama. E-Nable will distribute them around the country to kids ages 4-10. “I’ve seen videos of kids getting them and they really liked them,” Evan said. “For most kids that get these hands it’s their first prosthetic … so that’s pretty cool for them. “It would be very cool to (see a video of kids getting the hands we put together).” In early October, Evan organized a smaller group to put the kits together and get everything set for the bigger event the next weekend. A week later, a group of 40 friends, fellow Boy Scouts, Evan’s SDA Robotics teammates and members of the church

At a volunteer event at the LDS Church in Cardiff, Evan Wright, 15, supervises the assembling of prosthetic hands for kids as part of his Eagle Scout service project. gathered at the church and each used a kit and the pieces Evan had printed to assemble one hand. The volunteers, who ranged in age from 7 to adult, where not only down for the cause but also very impressed with the technology. Since he has all of the necessary merit badges and has stayed active with the troop, this service project will complete the work Evan needs to become an Eagle Scout. While some of the merit badges such as first aid, swimming and lifesaving are required, Evan wanted to do more and now has around 120 in other areas of interest such as architecture, welding, shooting, dentistry, sustainability, Indian Lore, programming and chess. “I’ve been in Boys Scouts ever since I was 7 years old,” Evan explained. “I simply challenged myself to get all of the merit badges. There is also this thing called STEM/Nova for people who are especially into science, technology, engineering and mathematics … and even more famous is the Supernova award. I’ve got the bronze level and I’m almost done with silver.” One merit badge that was right up his alley was robotics, as Evan is a member of SDA’s Team Paradox 2012, which appeared at the high school robotics world championship event in St. Louis last May after winning the regional competition. Evan lives in Carlsbad with dad Casey, mom Stacey, brother Alec, 11, and 5-year-old sister Bryn. At SDA, Evan likes his art, architecture and engineering classes best and he has his eye on a career in one of those three areas.
