Encinitas to look at limiting alcohol sales BY BARBARA HENRY The ever-increasing number of places that sell alcohol opening along Encinitas’ six-mile stretch of Coast Highway 101 is cause for concern, city Planning Commissioners said last week. The panel wants to study whether the city has enough bars, restaurants and liquor shops along the historic highway, and whether it should set limits on how many

more are allowed. “I think we’re all in agreement that we don’t want to become P.B. (Pacific Beach),” Commission Chairman Glenn O’Grady said during a special workshop Dec. 1, echoing a statement some downtown residents have repeatedly made in recent years. Those neighbors have long complained about bar patrons’ late-night rowdy behavior, drunken
driving, littering and other alcohol-related problems along downtown’s portion of Coast Highway 101. In response, the city and the county Sheriff’s Department have stepped up enforcement on everything from state driving laws to the city’s building occupancy limits. On Dec. 1, Commissioners and several downtown residents said those efforts appear to be working.
Resident Shirley Finch thanked the Sheriff’s Department, saying it has done a good job lately of clamping down on the area’s problems. However, Commissioners said, they worry that the number of alcohol sales spots along the entire six-mile corridor from northern Leucadia to southern Cardiff is starting to become excessive. They cited a city crime “heat map” SEE ALCOHOL, A18

A sea of solar panels is visible on the roof of the North Coast Health Center in Encinitas.
Large Encinitas building complex goes solar BY CHRIS SAUR On a trip through Encinitas, it’s not uncommon to see quite a few houses outfitted with solar panels as the energy savings isn’t just good for reducing footprint, but actually saves homeowners a bit of money. Fly over the big businesses in Encinitas, however, and there wasn’t much to see in terms of harnessing the sun’s energy — until now. The North Coast Health Center, which is owned and operated by AmeriCare Medical
Properties and is home to El Camino Pediatrics, Davis Pediatric Dental, Imaging Healthcare Specialists, Scripps Coastal Medical Group and more similar healthcare operations, now features nearly 730 photo voltaic panels on its roof space. The switch is expected to be officially flipped early next month, after which time the center will generate around 75 percent of its own house energy.

Stuart, 51, not only ran for the United States in the World Masters Track and Field Championships in Perth, Australia in October, she ran pretty darn fast. Competing against the fastest women in the world in her age range (50-54), Stuart finished fourth in the 8K cross country race to help the American team earn a bronze medal.

Prep Boys Soccer
Deep San Dieguito Academy squad expects to contend BY CHRIS SAUR Though the San Dieguito Academy boys soccer program certainly wasn’t down — the 2015-16 squad reached the San Diego Section Division I playoffs and lost to the eventual section champion — new coach Keith Whitmer wants to take it to the next level. The 2016-17 edition of the Mustangs has talent up and down the lineup, and Whitmer has brought a style that will take advantage of those players’ strengths, be fun for fans to watch and unify the program. “When I came in, the biggest thing I wanted to do is shift the environment. I wanted all teams (varsity, JV and JV B) playing a similar style, running the same system and all training and looking the same,” Whitmer said earlier this week. “It’s just creating a very positive, encouraging environment, and having a program where the freshmen, sophomores, JV kids, when they step up, they will have an understanding that this is how we play, ‘The SDA Way.’ It’s a style of soccer that is attractive for fans and mimics the way soccer is going.” The coach explained that ‘The SDA Way’ is attacking with good passing, movement and combination play. “Everything is with a thought and a purpose,” he continued. “The kids are

Next up is a Dec. 9 contest at San Marcos. These early-season matches are being played without standout senior Jonathan Sabouri, last year’s top scorer who has to miss the first five games of the campaign after getting invited to train with MLS franchise Sporting Kansas City’s Academy Team in front of USL (third-division) coaches.

Prep Girls Soccer
Mustangs kick off the season with four wins BY CHRIS SAUR When a high school like San Dieguito Academy is in a region where girls soccer is serious business, records don’t always tell the whole story. So while the Mustangs think they have a more balanced roster this year, the fact that they opened the season at 4-0 after winning four games all of last season isn’t a huge surprise. “Our record on paper didn’t look that good (last year) because the majority of the teams we played are like three divisions above us,” fourth-year coach Siggy Eyre explained of her SDA team that was in Division III last year. “We actually did fairly well considering who we were playing against, we never got too blown out. We had a good team year last season, we played really nice soccer.” Now playing in D-IV — a decision made at the CIF level based on last year’s record — but still possessing the talent of a D-III squad, SDA has come out strong in 2016-17, even with injuries to several key players. Starting the season with four games in the span of four days as part of the Baron’s Cup Tournament, the Mustangs have defeated Sweetwater, San Ysidro, Mater Dei Catholic and Mission Bay by a combined score of 21-1. And while the quality of opponent has led to a bigger spread in those games, SDA’s mix of experienced veterans and exciting youngsters should be a good recipe for success regardless of who is on the other side of the field. “The team was super young last year and we are

Of the team’s four seniors — Tina Bullington, Shayne Busick, Hope Hajek and Maia Nelson — only Busick has played in the past few games because of injury and illness to the other three. However, a group of juniors led by center midfielder Julia Honda has stepped in to provide additional leadership. “(Honda) is playing great,” Eyre said. “She’s always been a natural leader and she’s just come back this year very strong.” But it has been a true team effort as sophomores Yarisette Sequeria and the speedy SEE GIRLS SOCCER, A18

A student’s composite score is the average of the four test scores. ACT test scores are accepted by all major U.S. colleges.

FROM BOYS SOCCER, A3 he gets back. But Sabouri’s absence doesn’t mean the Mustangs are devoid of talent, far from it. In fact, SDA has strong players at every position, from goalkeeper to defense to midfield and attack. A pair of players are in competition to spend the majority of minutes between the pipes as juniors David Schlesinger and Nick Williams are both good enough to start at goalie. “We have two really good (junior) goalies that bring two different dynamics,” Whitmer explained. “They are both good across the board, but each does things a little differently than the other. David has been with varsity (starting half of the season last year), and then Nick is tall and athletic.” The defense in front of those two will be anchored by another dynamic duo in senior center backs Lucas Vilicich and Nick Engert, who provide skill and stability in that key spot on the field. “They are both solid … you can count on them,” Sabouri told the Encinitas Advocate. “Lucas is really fast and strong, it’s hard to get by him, and then Nick is just really good with his feet.” If the defense is the anchor for SDA, the Mustang midfield is the rudder, getting the team where it needs to go. There, a three-headed monster of seniors Ethan Boutelle and Arturo Diaz Vasquez, and junior Noah Bussell will be the stalwarts, with others filling in around them. “The way we want to play, everything is going to funnel through the middle and we are going to be building through there,” Whitmer said. “(Other than those three) we’ve got a handful of other players (like senior Michael Lothringer, junior Eytan Camras and junior Jonah Aere) that can step in and provide some balance there.” It’s no surprise that the Mustangs are strong all over the field, as 110 kids tried out for the less than 75 spots on the three teams in the program. And that depth is especially shown up front, where wingers and forwards such as Aidan Escobar, Chris Pickering, Aaron Luckhardt and Patrick Rahilly, all juniors, will pressure the goal. Other SDA players expected to contribute this season are Drew Von Zweck, Max Abel, Luis Romero, Brandon Adams and Brian Gallagher, among others. “With wingers and forwards, they are all very good players. I wouldn’t say we have
any weak forwards, we all compete,” said Sabouri, who will join that potent offense when he returns to the team. “This year is more balanced (then last year), we have a lot of good players. We have a tougher schedule this year, but I think we will definitely be an improved team overall. “Last year, I was the top scorer, but this year, I want to score but I also want to be assisting, especially to some of the juniors who will be on the team next year. I want to improve the team around me, and their confidence, compared to last year, is already a lot better. I’m kind of loud on the field so I want to keep doing that, just get the energy up.” That tough schedule includes games against the likes of Torrey Pines, La Costa Canyon and a pair of matchups with rival Canyon Crest (Jan. 26 at SDA and the season finale at CCA). “I want to win the Academy Cup against CCA, they beat us last year pretty bad at home,” Sabouri said. “I have friends on that team and I want to beat them. It’s going to be tough because I think they are going to be one of the top three teams in San Diego, I think they have four guys committed to Division I schools.” Sabouri is himself committed to UC San Diego and Whitmer says the Tritons are getting a star. “His speed, not just his first step but his first three steps, and his ability to maintain that speed, and his technical ability is really difficult to match up with,” the coach explained. “That’s going to be key for us … creating opportunities for everyone on this team. We have 23 other good players who can take advantage in those moments.” And Whitmer has the experience to know what he’s talking about. From the South Bay (Manhattan, Hermosa, Redondo Beach) area, Whitmer hasn’t coached high school for about 15 years but has been on the sidelines for club and Olympic Development Program soccer that whole time. His wife, Jennifer, is from La Jolla so when he was offered a teaching job at SDA, the family (which includes his 8 year-old son and 6 year-old daughter) jumped at the chance. The soccer coach spot opening up was just icing on the cake, but something Whitmer takes seriously. “With a high school program, you realize it’s a bigger picture, not just throwing cones on the field,” he said. And it doesn’t hurt to have the kind of talent he has on the Mustang squad.

Through parents’story, local man hopes to help heal divisions BY JOE TASH artin Kent is a man on a mission – to spread what he calls a “universal message of tolerance.” The 65-year-old Encinitas resident, a retired documentary filmmaker and journalist, said he seriously considered moving to Canada after the election of Donald Trump as president in November. The son of Holocaust survivors, Kent said he was disturbed by the polarization that arose during the election campaign. But conversations with his two grown sons changed his mind about leaving – one asked him, “What will that accomplish?” Kent recalled. Instead, said Kent, he wants to revive a talk that he has given in the past to high school students in Los Angeles, where he lived before moving to San Diego County four years ago. The hour-long program, he said, will encourage students to speak out when they witness acts of intolerance. “Do the right thing. Don’t be silent because your life ends when you remain silent. It’s over,” Kent said, paraphrasing a favorite quotation from the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Kent said he hopes to reach out to local school districts with his offer to provide the presentation, which includes a segment of a documentary video he made about his parents’ story. His father, Jack, a young Catholic man, and his mother, Roza, a Jewish woman, met during the Nazi occupation of Poland in the 1940s. The two went on the run

from the Nazis, narrowly escaping imprisonment and death at the hands of the occupiers, Kent said. “He could have easily walked away,” said Kent, rather than helping the young Jewish woman. Instead, “He put his life on the line and saved her.” In 2003, the government of Israel recognized his father’s actions with its highest honor, the “Righteous Among the Nations” award, the same award given to Oskar Schindler, the businessman memorialized in the film “Schindler’s List” for saving the lives of Jews during the Holocaust, said Kent. Kent said that since the election, he has been dismayed to read of the rise of intolerant acts aimed at minorities, including Muslims, Jews, Hispanics and others. The problem, he said, seems particularly acute in the nation’s schools. He pointed to a survey of K-12 educators conducted after the election by the Southern Poverty Law Center, an anti-discrimination group. According to a report on the group’s web site, 80 percent of teachers, administrators and school staff surveyed indicated heightened anxiety among students, worried about impacts of the election on themselves and their families. “Also on the upswing: verbal harassment, the use of slurs and derogatory language, and disturbing incidents involving swastikas, Nazi salutes and Confederate flags,” said the report. Kent said he was personally exposed to

“She just had love for everybody,” he said. During his career as a documentarian, Kent said, he made some 50 films on a variety of topics, including art, science and history, and they were broadcast on such networks as Discovery Channel, A&E, ABC, NBC and PBS. A guitarist and singer, Kent fronts a band, “Blues Skies,” that performs locally, and he is a member of Del Mar Toastmasters, through which he recently won a speakers’ competition and is advancing to a regional contest. Although he was deeply moved by his parents’ personal Holocaust story, they didn’t share it for more than 50 years, preferring to bury their painful memories. It was only after he made a documentary about Oskar Schindler, in the wake of the popular film, that they decided to open up and share their story. Kent said he spent a year interviewing his parents and even traveled to Poland with his father, to visit and film some of the places where the couple had been during the war years. By sharing his family’s story, Kent said he hopes to turn the tide against the divisive impulses that have surfaced recently across the country. Referring to a line from the Leonard Cohen song “Anthem” (the singer and poet died just before the election), Kent said, the election “revealed a huge crack in America and we need to fill it with a lot of light.”

‘Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy’ helps patients find root of the problem BY STACEY PHILLIPS past patient at Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy recently celebrated her 100th birthday at the Bressi Ranch location. Brian Stone, PT, DPT, clinic director at that office, said she attributed her health and longevity to “a good sense of humor and sticking to her exercise program.” “Many of our seniors continue to come in even after they have finished their therapy as members of our senior exercise program,” said Stone. “They enjoy the benefits of the exercise, and also the camaraderie with the staff and other past patients.” Many who suffer from acute or chronic back or neck pain, sore joints and mild orthopedic injuries often turn to physical therapy. “Physical therapy is a good alternative to many other medical interventions in that it is non-invasive, has very few side effects and has shown to be very cost-effective,” said Stone. “In fact, studies show that people who are seen by a physical therapist quickly after injury and/or an episode of back pain, have a 30 to 50 percent lower chance of requiring more aggressive medical care and may save over $2,000 in their total cost of medical care.” Gaspar Physical Therapy was established in 1994 by Dr. Paul Gaspar, DPT, as a small clinic in Frog’s Gym in Encinitas. “There was a fun and family-oriented environment where patient care was always placed as the top priority,” said Stone. A second location opened in Solana Beach in 2001 and two years later a third practice opened in La Costa. The company now has six locations in North County San Diego, including Oceanside, Bressi Ranch, Coastal Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach and Torrey Highlands. As the size of the practice grew over the years, so did the areas of specialization. Stone said the focus on outpatient rehabilitation now consists of cardiac rehab, pulmonary rehab, aquatic physical therapy, women’s health and pelvic floor rehabilitation, custom orthotic fabrication, and hand therapy with a certified hand specialist. The largest facility, The Sports Performance Center, opened in 2011. Located on Avenida Encinas in Carlsbad, it encompasses more than 6,000 square feet of state-of-the-art sports therapy equipment such as a biomechanics lab and artificial turf where athletes have space to perform higher level exercises. This past October, the company announced the opening of a sixth clinic in Torrey Highlands for patients who live farther south. “Over the years there have been several opportunities to either buy smaller clinics or to sell the company to bigger corporate interests, but that is not our goal,” said Stone. He said the 27 therapists and more than 100 employees share this same vision. “Many of our therapists have been with the company for over 10 years, which speaks to the family environment and small-business approach

Brian Stone, PT, DPT that still defines our company,” said Stone. It is independently owned by physical therapists, which Stone said allows for care that is guided by clinical decision-making and what is in the patient’s best interest. Gaspar met several of his current partners while working as a professor at the University of Southern California’s physical therapy school between 1996 and 2000. During this time, he became a clinical instructor for several student interns who joined the practice after graduating and they eventually became partners. As one of the seven partners, Stone said what sets the business apart from other practices is the commitment to quality. “Our patients are given ample time with their therapists and the therapists all have strong backgrounds in manual therapy to be able to provide effective ‘hands-on’ treatment,” he said. “Our physical therapists are trained to not only eliminate your short-term pain, but will work with you to come up with longer-term exercise programs to keep your pain from coming back and optimize your health and function.” Stone said that one of the big changes that has occurred over the past year is that direct access became available January 1, 2015. This allows patients in California to seek care directly from a physical therapist without a physician’s prescription. “There are several reasons that people can benefit from physical therapy,” said Stone.

country,” Stuart told the Encinitas Advocate. “That was what made it fun for me.” Stuart spent 10 days in Perth, and considered staying longer to run the 10,000 meters but decided to come home to her family. Early in her trip, she participated in the event’s Opening Ceremonies in downtown Perth, gathering with the rest of the Americans to walk together wearing their Team U.S.A. gear. Coming to the main track in the ensuing days, to pick up her numbers and paperwork, to train, watch other races and eventually compete, Stuart met people from all over the world: “When I was warming up for the 5,000, I met a girl from China because we just happened to be in the same spot. I realized that she didn’t speak English so it was a lot of sign language, gesturing, but it was really fun.” But as much fun as the destination was, Stuart’s journey to the World Masters Championships is even more interesting. Growing up in Livingston, New Jersey, she played baseball and softball as her main sport, but also soccer, basketball and swimming. During her senior year, she made the switch to the track team. “Somewhere along the line, it was a rainy day … we were in the gym practicing (softball) and I just realized I wasn’t having fun anymore,” Stuart said. “Then I saw the track and field team running around the halls and they looked like they were having fun. So I joined the track team.” She still had no interest in running initially, so she started with the javelin. Eventually, though, Stuart started running the distance events to help the team get a few more points. When she went to Rutgers for college (from 1983-84), she joined the club soccer team. That year, Stuart and her teammates helped the team transition from a club program into a true varsity team, but then she transferred to University of Virginia. The same thing happened at Virginia, Stuart joined a club soccer team and eventually helped it turn into a varsity program. However, once it was a varsity team, the talent level surpassed hers so she left the team. While she was playing soccer, Stuart realized she actually liked the running part more than the soccer part. So after she stopped playing soccer she kept running. Then, during a sorority event a short time later, Stuart easily outran all of her sisters and the rest of the competition at her normal jogging pace and realized that she was actually pretty fast. After graduating from college in 1987, she took a road trip to California and knew immediately that it was where she wanted to live. “This where I was meant to be,” Stuart said. “Everyone here was outdoors, exercising, working out, I was like wow.” So she and her husband, Scott, moved to San Diego in 1988, where a friend of hers signed her up for a triathlon and
she said OK. That prompted Stuart to join a Masters swimming club as well as the San Diego Track Club to help with her training, and she eventually completed the triathlon. A couple months later, she ran the Lion Padres 10K and when she finished and saw the clock, she thought the clock was broken. She had broken the 40-minute barrier by more than two minutes. Realizing the speed she had, Stuart set a lofty goal for herself: run the marathon in the U.S. Olympic Trials. But first, she took a slight detour back into triathlons. After doing an Ironman qualifying event in Chicago just for fun, Stuart qualified for the main event and decided it was an opportunity she could not pass up. So, while also getting her MBA (Master of Business Administration), she trained and then competed in the 1990 Ironman in Kona, Hawaii. As soon as she finished her MBA, Stuart immediately decided that she wanted to be a teacher instead, got her credential and began teaching in 1993. At the same time, she decided to put her athletic focus back on running, and returned to her Olympic Trials goal. Following years of working on her times, first just at the 10K distance and then eventually the marathon, Stuart qualified for the 1996 Olympic Trials. However, an injury during training affected her performance, so Stuart decided to give it another go in 2000, competing at the Trials in Sacramento that year. After placing in the 80s in 1996, Stuart finished 28th in 2000. Already teaching at Cardiff School and living in Encinitas at that point, Stuart took a break from competitive running to have her four kids — Torrey, 15; Morgan, 13; Ryan, 11; and 9 year-old Riley. Torrey, is a sophomore at San Dieguito Academy who runs cross country and track and joined her mother in running the recent Encinitas Turkey Trot. While raising her kids. Stuart still ran for fun, but didn’t have enough time for the training needed to stay competitive with the best in the world. But that changed in 2005. “After I turned 40, it was a totally different category, Masters running,” Stuart said. “It levels the playing field and it’s nice because it gives you new goals to have. This is a sport you can do forever. Even if you’re not the fastest right now, the thing is consistency, because you can compete at any age.” She recently rejoined the San Diego Track Club, running with the Masters team to help her train for the World Masters event. Stuart likes to keep busy so in addition to her running, her career and her family, she also started the Junior Mavericks running club with a friend of hers — where she helps coach older elementary school kids and middle schoolers interested in track and cross country — and teaches spin class at the YMCA and Fitness Evolution in Encinitas. “Who knows, I might quit (running) and join pickle boarding next,” Stuart said with a laugh. “Or maybe standup paddle boarding.”

FROM SOLAR, A1 according to AmeriCare president Greg Petree, was the fact that it makes both economic and environmental sense. “It’s clearly beneficial, not only to the bottom line, but to the environment and the local community as well,” Petree said. “There’s a saying we use here and it’s ‘doing well by doing good.’ ” For the company’s investment of just over $650,000, the 265 kilowatt system will generate more than 450,000 kilowatt hours of energy per year. According to the EPA, that’s the equivalent of reducing 36,000 gallons of gasoline each year or 338,000 tons of coal not being burned every year. On the financial side of things, company projections have the solar panels paying for themselves in about seven years. “The nice part about solar is there is a return,” Petree said. “You make a large upfront capital investment and it does reduce another operating expense on a different part of the balancing sheet. Given enough time, it should make sense.” AmeriCare hired Borrego Solar to convert the center, and the people there say solar power should be getting more and more cost effective. “Solar has continued to become increasingly cost effective for California businesses and public entities,” explained Borrego Solar project developer Audrey Copeland. “The cost of installing solar has fallen quickly and by a lot, due to things like technology advancements and the simple fact that the industry has matured.” A healthcare developer and operator with headquarters in Solana Beach, AmeriCare builds and operates large outpatient health centers — this one in Encinitas and the Vista Medical Plaza — as well as large retirement communities, one each in San Marcos and Fallbrook, under the brand name of SilverGate. CEO David Petree is the father of Greg and Matt, who grew up in Solana Beach and are now part of the company’s executive team. Greg lives in Del Mar, while Matt recently moved to Leucadia, where his kids are just starting in the Encinitas Union School District. At the center, which has been open for 30 years, AmeriCare had already switched to LED lights and had the roofs redone in “cool roof” style before deciding to go even further by installing the solar panels. The panels should work for 20 to 30 years. The company also has plans to convert its landscaping to a drip system and make it more drought tolerant. “Commercial decisions can be very different from residential decisions,” Greg Petree said. “A lot of these buildings in Encinitas are owned by out of town owners … so maybe they aren’t as invested in the community. We all grew up here, our kids go to the school districts in this community … so we also factor in, ‘Is it the right thing to do for our community as well as our business?’ ” AmeriCare would like to work with the city to encourage other Encinitas businesses to go solar. Petree said while residential permit applications have been steadily increasing over the past several years, no information is available from a commercial standpoint. One reason for that may be that there aren’t any comparable businesses in North County that have made this large of a leap into solar. “We were simply looking just to compare our investment to others in the area and there just isn’t a resource for that,” said Petree, who recently met with Mayor elect Catherine Blakespear on the subject. “(I think we should) find ways to get that information, but, more importantly, to use that information to encourage other like-minded commercial property owners within greater Encinitas to at least consider it. Sometimes having an example of someone doing it in the area, maybe that will motivate someone else to do it.” Blakespear, a City Council member who will take over as Mayor later this month, said she would be happy to see more businesses moving in this direction. “We love to have businesses in Encinitas that reflect that environmentally-oriented ethic,” she continued. “(The work being done at North Coast Health Center) is an example of taking that far, and it’s inspiring to the city.” The Encinitas Union School District has gotten in on the solar act, as all nine schools now feature solar panels.

Community Resource Center Holiday Baskets event is Dec. 17 Holiday Baskets, an annual event held by Community Resource Center (CRC), has set a goal to help more than 1,000 households (with 2,000-plus children) in need this year by providing food, toys and household necessities. Last year, with the support of 1,000 volunteers and 200 businesses, Holiday Baskets distributed more than 60 tons of items. This year’s event is set for Saturday, Dec. 17 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Households from San Marcos, Vista, Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach and Del Mar register in advance to participate in Holiday Baskets and must meet income requirements. “There are so many ways you can help us make dreams a reality this holiday season,” CRC Chief Executive Officer Isabel St.Germain Singh said in a news release. “If everyone contributes what they are able, we can meet the needs and brighten the holidays for so many families in our community. We really need your support to reach our goal.” In order to help so many families and children, the CRC is depending on the community for volunteers, event sponsorships, cash donations and donations of items such as new toys, new or gently-used bicycles, nonperishable food staples, new or gently-used winter coats and jackets, baby items and more. A wish list is provided at crcncc.org/holidaybaskets. To give, sponsor, volunteer or sign up, please visit the website.

The Museum of Making Music is located at 5790 Armada Drive, Carlsbad, 92008.
FROM ALCOHOL, A1 showing that during the last four years many of Encinitas’ reported crimes have happened along Coast Highway 101. There are 83 businesses along the corridor licensed to sell alcohol, and every few months, city Planning Commissioners are asked to vote on permit requests for new operations or expansions of existing businesses. Sixty-nine of these existing alcohol sales spots are restaurants and bars where the alcohol is consumed on-site, while 14 are mini-markets and other places where purchases are taken off-site, city records indicate. O’Grady wondered how many more alcohol sales establishments are needed, saying Coast Highway appears to have more than enough alcohol sales establishments to serve the city’s needs. Commissioner Tony Brandenburg told him that commissioners need to think beyond the residents’ desires and realize that Encinitas is a
FROM GIRLS SOCCER, A3 Holly Cook have been two of the Mustangs’ top scorers, and classmates Nadia Hagnani and Julia Lucero have been big contributors as well. Lucero, a midfielder, came up from JV midway through last season and made her presence felt immediately on the varsity squad. “(This year) we are growing really close as a team,” said Busick, an outside midfielder who will play at Trinity International University in Chicago next year. “A few years ago, we were really reconstructing the team and now we are closer, more connected and have better chemistry. That helps with passing and movement and just knowing what the other players are going to do.” And then there is diminutive freshman Dana Scott, who has stepped up in the key position of center back. After injuries left the position vacant coming into the season, Scott and sophomore Shayne Glazer each played well enough to earn the spot and have shined in the first few outings. “(Scott) is doing really well playing center back, which is kind of a leadership role so it is hard for a freshman to play,” Eyre explained. Goalkeeper McKenna Garvey, a junior who is new to the SDA varsity team this year, has also been solid. And the Mustangs gain even more talent and depth when promising freshman Carly Eroso finishes her club commitments and seniors such as Nelson, Hajek and Bullington come back from injury. “We are doing pretty well playing our
FROM THERAPY, A8 “Physical therapists are excellent at finding the root cause of musculoskeletal problems.” In addition to typically being seen within one or two days, Stone said a comprehensive plan is administered during the first appointment to determine the problem and find the best approach to address it. The business has been recognized as a top physical therapist practice, including a 2016 Readers’ Choice “Best of”award and Best Physical Therapists in San Diego 2016 by Expertise. Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy also takes pride in giving back to the surrounding community. This includes supporting many local nonprofit organizations and high school athletic training programs, offering
tourist destination. “We’re a tourist destination for the daytime, (but) do we want to be a tourist destination for the night life?” O’Grady responded. City planners said regulating the sale of alcohol is a complex process involving both state and city permit systems. New businesses that sell alcohol need a minor use permit — something that’s approved by the city’s Planning Commission — as well as permits from the state Alcoholic Beverage Control board, which regulates what type of alcohol they can sell and how they sell it. The state board does have a process to limit the issuing of new permits in “over-served” areas — places where there’s an excessive number of alcohol sales operations — but those areas must meet certain state standards, including criminal activity rates, city associate planner Laurie Winter said. Commissioners said that they would like more data on the state standards and whether the coastal highway corridor qualifies. They
outside backs through our wingers, through the middle and working on stuff like that,” Honda said. “Once we have all our players back from injury, we will be very strong (with our starters and) players off the bench.” That depth extends to the coaching staff, where Eyre’s friend Brianne Oostinga stepped in last minute when another coach had to take a leave. “I’m excited to have Bri because she’s played at a professional level. but also she’s quite a bit younger so it’s good for the girls to have someone they can look up that isn’t so much older that they can’t see themselves in,” Eyre said. A new frosh-soph coach is Craig Bedford, who is from Wales. “We have a good (staff) here, we are all working together trying to build one program not three separate teams (varsity, JV, frosh-soph),” continued Eyre, who teaches P.E. at Paul Ecke Central. “When I became varsity coach, that’s what I wanted to change. Make it more of a program that everyone wants to be a part of and supports each other.” Eyre grew up in Oregon before playing at Whitman College, a Division III school in Washington. She moved down south 15 years ago, has coached soccer in the area for about 10 years (six with SDA, which is down the street from her house) and still plays the sport as well. Eyre and her husband Rich have a son — who plays JV soccer at SDA — and a daughter who goes to Oak Crest Middle School. Next up for the Mustangs is a home match Dec. 13 (5 p.m.) against Southwest EC. hundreds of free athlete physicals and helping raise money for athletic training scholarships. The business has also been active in raising funds for breast cancer research and will be adopting a family over the holidays to provide food, clothing and gifts for them. “Our company is also different in that many of our clients consistently remark that it is a fun and enjoyable place to be,” said Stone. “We have always strived to maintain customer care and quality service as the number one priority of our practice.” For more information, visit www.gasparpt.com or email info@gasparpt.com. - Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of our advertisers.
also asked staff members to research how many alcohol-serving establishments are in neighboring communities along Coast Highway; they sought data on recent city code enforcement activities; and they wanted to know what steps the state board can take to revoke existing alcohol sales permits. Steve Chase, the city’s interim planning and building director, said city planners could have that research ready for the commission at a meeting in February. The commission could then have a “hearty discussion” on the data, and decide whether to ask the City Council to pursue permit restrictions, he said. Brandenburg said he also was interested in having the city increase its fines for permit violations, such as when a bar exceeds its building occupancy limit. The first-time offenders currently face $100 fine. That’s “ridiculous when a speeding ticket is $400,” he said. — Barbara Henry writes for The San Diego Union-Tribune.

NC Rep to present ‘The Wedding Cake’ by The Honorable H. Lee Sarokin North Coast Repertory Theatre’s New Works Reading Series presents the reading of The Honorable H. Lee Sarokin’s new play The Wedding Cake, Dec. 13 at 7:30 p.m. The Wedding Cake “is about the tension between religious liberty and discrimination and the sacrifices made by those who stand for or against either,” says Sarokin. In this play, two couples, quarrel over an incident, which, at first, seems to be trivial. Tension soon develops into a bitter dispute with each couple; both suffering consequences they never envisioned, over something they thought so small. Longtime Artistic Director at North Coast Rep, David Ellenstein, speaks highly of Sarokin’s works: “His plays are usually short, gripping and about hot-button issues without any sugar-coating,” Ellenstein said. “They’re open to audience interpretation instead of preaching a point, and they’re very immediate

and accessible.” This play is sure to engender strong feelings and raise great discussion at the talkback after the reading. Judge H. Lee Sarokin is a graduate of Dartmouth College and Harvard Law School.

Throughout his judicial career he has championed civil rights. He is a regular contributor to the Huffington Post, tutors at Casa de Amistad, served five years as Distinguished Jurist in Residence at USD Law School and plays drums with jazz groups. This is a free reading, on stage for one-night only. After the reading there will be a Talkback with Sarokin, director Jay Mower and cast.
