23. It started out as a small event in 2000, the year John turned 65. Kathy said they bought a lot of tables, chairs and other items for a big party to celebrate his birthday. After the party, the couple decided they wanted to do something to repay the community for supporting the business John owned and developed — Family Fun Center. At

several locations throughout San Diego County, the center offered miniature golf, arcade games, rides and other amusements to those of all ages. Many locations were later leased to Boomers. John also developed amusement facilities in Washington, Utah and Nevada. So before Christmas 2000 they put out a sign in their neighborhood saying Santa

Kathy and John Huish have welcomed up to 15,000 people per year to their “Santa House” in Poway. This will be their 16th and final year for the free community offering.

If you’ve never visited the Santa House in Poway, you have a few more nights before one of the best-known community secrets closes for the final time on Dec. 23. John and Kathy Huish, now 81 and 72 respectively, said they have decided that due to their ages and the months of decorating work involved, this 16th year will be the last that they will welcome the community for free to see their extensively decorated home. The Santa House is in north Poway, with a sign on Espola Road directing visitors to where they can meet Santa and Mrs. Claus. To keep crowds manageable, they never publicize the Santa House and have requested that media outlets — including this one — not published their address. It is viewable between 6 and 8 p.m. each night, except Sunday, through Dec.

and Mrs. Claus would be meeting with children for two hours each night from Dec. 10 to 23 (Sundays excluded). They put some chairs in their gazebo for the North Pole couple and over the 12 days about 2,000 people showed up, she said. So the next year they decided to decorate the playhouses in their backyard — relics from their former Family Fun Center in La Mesa that had to close to make way for a freeway. The playhouses — used by the children in their family — were once among the miniature golf course’s obstacles. More people came after learning about the offering via word-of-mouth. By the third year, Kathy said they realized it was a bit awkward for the growing crowd to walk back and forth from the front and backyards and bought more decorations so one of the paths could go through their house.

Water and sewer rates will increase starting next month but residential customers may be getting a drought-related rebate, the City Council agreed Tuesday night. Saying they really didn’t have much choice in the matter, the council unanimously approved a water commodity rate increase of 7.75 percent and an increase to the fixed meter charge of 8.75 percent. Sewer use fees will increase by 7.50 percent while the fixed sewer service charge would go up by 8.75 percent. Also approved was a temporary “Drought Recovery Surcharge” of 75 centers per unit of water (748 gallons) that would be assessed through the end of 2018 to help offset the fiscal impact of drought-related reductions in water sales. The surcharge is intended to pay back a $5.7 million loan from the sewer fund that will keep the city’s water fund from running dry by next summer. The fund, used to finance water delivery services and system maintenance, has been impacted by several factors, including reduced revenues resulting from water conservation efforts taken by customers. The loan is expected to be paid off by the end of 2018 and the council has SEE RATES, A13

Poway-based Quantum Energy Storage is facing thousands of dollars in fines as a result of an explosion in June that injured four workers. The June 10 explosion at its location on Gregg Street in the Poway Business Park was caused by an out-of-control 11,000-pound metal flywheel. One worker suffered a broken ankle and three others were treated for abrasion injuries caused by flying debris from the explosion, according to a news release from Cal/OSHA on Wednesday. The California Office of Occupational Safety and Health (or Cal/OSHA) has levied fines totaling $58,025 on the company and issued 16 citations for violations of multiple health and safety standards, including the safe practices for operating

machinery standard. These citations include five that were serious in nature and one that was classified as serious accident-related. “California employers must take precautions to protect employees from on-the-job hazards, including machinery operated in closed, confined spaces,” said Cal/OSHA Chief Juliann Sum in a news release. “The workers harmed by this explosion could have died because the employer did not secure or cover the flywheel to prevent the release of mechanical energy.” According to the news release, Cal/OSHA investigators learned that the nearly seven feet in diameter flywheel was placed in a concrete vault area installed in the warehouse for tests of the energy storage system. Prior to the accident, the flywheel was spinning at

6,000 rotations per minute. It had just begun the process of winding down when it failed, coming loose from its moorings and crashing into the vault’s guard rails. The accident caused enough damage to the building’s roof, interior and walls that the building was deemed unsafe to enter after the accident. No steps had been taken to enclose the vault or minimize hazards to where the employees worked, according to the Cal/OSHA release. Computer stations were not located at a safe distance, nor were they designed to limit employee exposure in case of uncontrolled release of electrical or mechanical energy. Quantum Energy Storage did not respond to a request by Pomerado News for a comment.

Poway picks up PUSD recall signs Poway employees scooped up eight campaign signs in support of recalling Poway Unified School District board member Andy Patapow within hours of them being posted around Old Poway Park. City Engineer Steve Crosby said most — but not all — of the signs violated the city’s current sign ordinance because they were placed too close to city-owned property. The signs were picked up Friday afternoon, before the next day’s hugely popular Christmas in the Park, which drew thousands of residents to the city

park. Crosby said he wasn’t sure exactly why the signs that did not violate the current code were included in the roundup. On Tuesday night the City Council put its final stamp of approval on a revised ordinance that will prohibit signs being placed along right-of-ways, as well as next to city owned land. The new law also reduces the allowed size of signs posted in private yards. The update ordinance goes into effect on Jan. 15.

National Director of Character Counts visits PUSD BY EMILY SORENSEN Poway Unified School District got a chance to show its character on Dec. 11 when the national director of Character Counts came to visit. Jeff McMurdy, the national director of Character Counts, came to visit the Ambassador programs at Poway High School, Rancho Bernardo High School and Del Norte High School. This was the first time McMurty had come to see the Ambassadors in a classroom environment. The Poway High School Ambassadors began the day with a visit to the Poway High special needs classroom, where they decorated Christmas cookies, played a social game, talked and danced to music, including Justin Bieber, “Frozen,” One Direction and Kelly Clarkson. “I saw the (PHS and RBHS) Ambassadors several times in October in elementary schools during National Character Counts week,” said McMurdy. “What I like about what (the Ambassador program) does is that it’s not just Character Counts, but it’s talking about being a good person, respecting others, your community and your school. Poway High School is an example of how to use Character Counts at the high school level.” Character Counts is a national program that seeks to use a framework to connect teachers and students using the six pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and

It’s a kind of spirit to create a positive environment.” Character Counts begins at the elementary level, then evolves as students age. In high school, it manifests as the Ambassador program and the sports program Victory with Honor. In middle school, the program emphasizes leadership, to encourage students to help their school and the community.

“(Character Counts) really kind f morphs itself as it goes from kindergarten to 12th grade,” said McMurdy. Rancho Bernardo High School was the first school in the district to create the Ambassador program, which has high school students connecting with middle school and elementary students to promote the six pillars of character and set good examples. Poway High School’s Ambassador program formed three years ago. There are 12 members of the Titan Ambassadors, a number that was painstakingly whittled down from about 80

From there, 36 students applied for positions with the Ambassadors, and from there, 12 were selected. To be an Ambassador, students must not only excel academically, but be involved on campus, live a drug and alcohol-free lifestyle and be a person of SEE PUSD, A9

Debbie Kurth is honored by local philanthropy council BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK

A HOLIDAY HERO

SHERRI DUNLAP

Marine Cpl. Robert Storms helps Nathan Kidwell pick out a pair of boots for a family member during the annual "Holiday with Heroes" event held Dec. 10 at the Poway Walmart store. The Poway Kiwans Club and Summit for Children Worldwide, assisted by several other volunteer groups, arranged for 210 underserved youngsters to shop with Marines, first-responders and other adult role models. Each child was given a $100 gift card.

Longtime Rancho Bernardo resident and community volunteer Debbie Kurth has been named a “Volunteer of the Year” by the North County Philanthropy Council. She was nominated by the Rancho Bernardo Community Foundation, of which she has been a board member for several years and in January will begin her two-year term as president. The North County Philanthropy Council honored 61 individuals on Nov. 12 for giving “their time, treasure and talent to help others in North County.” Around 500 attended the ceremony in Carlsbad. “I was very honored to be recognized,” Kurth said of her award. She added that it was nice to be with so many people who have “common goals.” Kurth said she got involved with the foundation about five years ago while helping

For several years she has led efforts to collect silent auction items from area merchants and others and helped sell opportunity drawing tickets. Due to her efforts, she was invited to join the foundation board. Kurth said she agreed to join the foundation’s board because “I love the Rancho

Bernardo community and the foundation gives back to so many organizations in Rancho Bernardo. We participate in choosing where the grants go and ... it’s really wonderful and nice to see our efforts (pay off in the community).” As for her goals as president, Kurth said, “I’m really looking for ways to increase membership and in turn increase the number of grants we can give back to the community and their dollar amount.” The foundation’s annual $500 membership dues are split between the annual grants program and the Rancho Bernardo endowment (its interest also goes to the grants).

PUSD has new board president BY EMILY SORENSEN

IN THE RECORD BOOK

The giant plinko board used as part of the past two Jack-o-Smash Family Festivals has been certified by the Guiness Book of World Records as the largest of its kind in the world. Event organizers received the official word on Dec. 3. The board was designed, constructed and financed by employees of Rockwell Collins in the Poway Business Park. This year’s Jack-o-Smash, held Oct. 30, raised $26,500. Checks of $8,000 each have been presented to the PoVa Therapeutic Riding Program, the Poway Unified School District Special Education Foundation and the Abraxas High School Transitions Program. A $2,500 check was given to the Poway Padres Special Olympics team.

The December school board meeting brought about a new board leadership, with president Kimberley Beatty stepping down and Michelle O’Connor-Ratcliff taking her place. O’Connor-Ratcliff was voted in by a 3-2 margin, with Beatty and board member Charles Sellers supporting Beatty’s nomination of Sellers. The seat of vice-president of the board went to TJ Zane, after Zane was nominated by board clerk Andy Patapow and Beatty was nominated by Sellers. The vote was again 3-2 in favor of Zane, with Beatty and Sellers voting for Beatty. Student board representative Neel Pujar used his preferential vote to support Zane for vice president. Patapow is repeating his role as clerk again this year, winning in a 3-2 vote against Sellers. Also at the board meeting, several groups spoke during public comment requesting continuing or increased funding for their programs. Representatives of the district’s robotics clubs requested that their coaches receive a stipend from the district, similar to how football coaches are paid, while several different groups requested more funding for district libraries and increased staffing. These groups included the Rancho Bernardo Friends of the Library and the PUSD Parents Group, as well as two young students from Deer Canyon Elementary School. Several members of the community also spoke about gun safety, requesting that the district send home letters to families about ensuring that any guns in the home are safely and securely locked up.

Three different programs were suggested to the board and supertintendent to use: Asking Saves Kids, or ASK, which encourages parents to ask the parents of their children’s playmates if they have guns in their home, and if so, if they are securely locked up; Safe Storage, which is a letter encouraging parents to securely lock up firearms; and Speak Up, which is a hotline that allows students to anonymously report threats and violence that they might not be comfortable reporting otherwise. Supt. John Collins said that the district is working to implement these or similar gun safety programs. “We are moving forward and will report back to the board,” Collins said. The board also ratified the tentative agreement for the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) for 2015. This tentative agreement will give SEIU members a three percent raise retroactive to July 1, as well as increases in vacation time, health and welfare benefits and transportation department provisions. The tentative agreement for members of the Association of Poway School Managers Unrepresented Employees (APSM), however, was tabled during closed session by the board. The APSM tentative agreement will instead be voted on whenever the Poway Federation of Teachers’s tentative agreement is ready for approval. Following a public comment by former board member Marc Davis, who questioned the board’s pulling of this and three other agenda items in closed session, the board decided to reintroduce these four items to the agenda and table them in open session.

Teacher given Northrop Grumman fellowship BY EMILY SORENSEN Rolling Hill Elementary School science teacher Jamie Walsh has been selected for a fellowship in the Northrop Grumman Foundation Teachers Academy. Walsh is one of nine teachers in California to be selected for the fellowship, and the only teacher for the Poway Unified School District. There were 25 total teachers selected nationwide. “We welcome our first class of distinguished educators selected to participate in the Northrop Grumman Foundation Teachers Academy,” said Sandra Evers-Manly, Northrop Grumman vice president, Global Corporate Responsibility and president of the Northrop Grumman Foundation. “They play a critical role in the development of young minds and it is our goal that this program will give them additional tools and resources to be even more impactful in their classrooms.”

The teachers will participate in a year-long immersion in a host of science-, technologyand engineering-related activities and professional learning opportunities. Some of the activities the teachers will engage in during their fellowships include participating in a five-day workshop at Northrop Grumman during the summer of 2016, where they will discuss teacher strategies for integrating effective and authentic design practices in their classrooms; attending the National Science Teacher Association National Conference on Science Education in Nashville; and participate in a two-week summer externship at a Northrop Grumman facility, where they will team up with an engineer or technologist to observe daily activities and learn the skills required for success in the field. Teachers were selected on the basis of several criteria, including displaying a strong desire to advance STEM education.

Following the event with the special needs students, PHS Ambassadors held a question-and-answer with McMurdy, something he repeated with the Ambassadors from RBHS and DNHS later on in the day.

The 3-year Seller’s Market in Real Estate continued in 2015. Strong Buyer demand is chasing a low inventory of homes, causing prices to continue to rise. We have seen a continuing strong market in 2015 with High Buyer Demand and Very Low Inventory. Interest Rates will begin to move up, but are still at historic lows. In 2016 we may see rates start moving towards 5%.

These statistics are based on actual solds with escrows that closed between January 1, 2001 and the current date. (Sales data as per Sandicor MLS). This information is believed to be generally accurate, but is not guaranteed.

FROM SANTA, A1 existence, they were offering free refreshments and they built a 36-foot tower that is installed each year by crane. “(Santa House) just became more than we expected and grew,” Kathy said. “People found out in the community and came from all over.” Their visitors have been from throughout the region, numerous states and several countries. To have several rooms of their home decorated with everything from tiny miniatures to a life-sized elephant, they rent a unit where their furniture is stored from roughly September to February in order to make way for their Christmas décor. The couple estimates that for the past seven or eight years, around 15,000 people come by annually, at least 1,000 per day during the first week it operates and up to 2,500 per day once schools go on their holiday break. Movies are shown to entertain those waiting an hour or more in line. Around 15 friends and members of their church help each night. Adults are volunteers, but high schoolers are paid, John said.

Each year the couple spends roughly $3,000 to $10,000 to put on the event. This includes decorations, candy canes given to each child by Santa and a small toy each child gets to select. John said they bought thousands of toys for this year’s event. Until two years ago they also provided free hot chocolate, hot apple cider and cookies, but the logistics of continuing that tradition became too much. John said it required six generators to serve 6,800 cups of hot cider, 7,500 packets of cocoa and they bought 2,200 dozen cookies, which is 26,400 cookies. To get that many they would almost buy out the cookie aisle in Walmart, then a few days later return for more, Kathy said. After the 2007 wildfires, they decided to accept free-will donations to help a selected cause, she said. The Rancho Bernardo and Poway fire stations received the money collected during the first two years. Other recipients have been Make-a-Wish, Give Kids the World, a Down syndrome clinic at Rady Children’s Hospital and a woman who needed a lift for her car because of her child. This

They receive $3,000 to $5,000 in donations each year and Kathy said collectively they have raised about $25,000 to $30,000 for charitable causes. More money is raised for Make-A-Wish by having children write letters to Santa. The letters are

whisked up to one of his elves near a second-story window via a pulley. They deliver the letters by taking them by the bag-full to Macy’s stores since Macy’s donates $1 per letter received to Make-A-Wish. John and Kathy said they have made numerous special memories over the years. She said some of the most touching are children whom they can tell don’t have much; a severely disabled 4-year-old boy who was not

expected to live, but is now an adult who still makes an annual visit; and a boy whose dying wish was to visit the Santa House. He came two days before Christmas and died shortly after the New Year. There are also the children who come in wheelchairs, she said, and the youngsters — even up to age 10 or 12 — who are “starry-eyed” and light up in anticipation because they really believe they are visiting Santa’s house.

“There are a lot of things, just special tender things, that come out of seeing people so happy,” Kathy said. “I will miss the little children because for them, it’s magical.” “It’s hard to stop,” John said. “Now or five years from now it will still be hard. But at our ages, it’s time.” “If it remained a small undertaking, we could continue forever,” Kathy said, adding that maybe just one room where some decorations will be displayed could be available so children can continue to visit Santa. As for what they are going to do with the thousands of decorations, all the large outdoor items in the front yard will be going to a Christmas tree farm in Escondido, which wants to put on a display. Kathy said she plans on spending several months next year sorting through the indoor decorations, keeping some, donating others and perhaps selling the rest, with the proceeds going to charity. “It’s been wonderful,” Kathy said to summarize the past 16 years. “We enjoyed it,” John added.

Clinical Research – Your access to the latest treatments Clinical trials are research studies that involve patients who volunteer to participate in medical care that is not yet widely available. Carefully conducted and governed by strict Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations and oversight by Institutional Research Boards (IRBs),

clinical trials are used to determine the safety and efficiency of a drug or treatment before it is approved for distribution. Understanding more about the availability of clinical trials in their area gives people an opportunity to learn whether this option is right for themselves, or for a friend or family member. Thousands of people become involved in clinical trials in order to gain access to state-of-theart treatments sooner than they may become available otherwise. Information gained from a variety of research institutes and organizations also advances the practice of medicine with each new breakthrough, as each research location is typically associated with a variety of other organizations such as Pharmaceutical Sponsors, Clinical Research Organizations (CROs) and

other multi-center national and global organizations. Arch Health Partners, a non-profit medical foundation associated with Palomar Health, established its own Clinical Research Department in 2013, bringing experienced clinical research professionals together to provide access to trials in the San Diego North County areas. The Arch Research department is comprised of Principal Investigators, Sub-Investigators, Study Coordinators and a large group of administrative specialists in regulatory documentation. Major support partners in our ongoing research include Novo Nordisk, Takeda, Novartis, AMGEN, Pfizer and the Duke Clinical Research Institute. Critical to the function of the department is a focus on best practices and principles including data quality, reliability, and patient

retention for completion of each study. Clinical trial participants are involved on a voluntary basis, following a screening process in which they are able to learn the study requirements and potential benefits or risks associated with a given trial. Additionally, most studies will reimburse patients for their time and travel to a study location. Arch Health Partners is currently enrolling participants in studies for Gout and Cardiovascular Disease, Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 with Kidney Disease and various Ophthalmology trials. New trials are initiated often for other disease types and there are more on the horizon for 2016. Interested patients can learn more at www.archhealth.org/research or may call 858-613-2965.

Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotarians Jon Shea, Greg Lund and Peter Shusterman were among those who volunteered at the Valley Elementary Holiday Party on Dec. 5.

RB Sunrise Rotary helps Poway families Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary Club hosted a breakfast and holiday gift giveaway on Dec. 5 at Valley Elementary School in Poway. The event was for hundreds of area families needing a little extra Christmas cheer. Working alongside school staff and members of their sister club from Tijuana, 20 Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotarians provided breakfast, holiday gifts, wrapping and good cheer to those needing it most. “It’s an amazing experience to get up a little early, work a little harder, give a little more and make so many lives a little bit better,” said club President Alison Farrin. The Rotarians worked with numerous area

FROM RATES, A1 emphatically stated that the surcharge will end once that is accomplished. The combined proposed rate increases for a typical single-family residence using 20 units of water would be $14.66 per month. That includes the new surcharge. Councilmembers supported a suggestion by Mayor Steve Vaus that the surcharge not be applied to the first 22 units of water used by residential customers every two months. That number represents the median residential usage. Waiving or rebating the surcharge would save the ratepayer up to $16.50 on the bimonthly bill. However, applying the fee only to usages above 22 units for the next year would require a $1.25 million loan from general fund reserves.

merchants to provide food, supplies and gift items for Poway’s families in need. “There’s a hidden population that needs an extra boost now and again — people who, through no fault of their own, are finding it tough to provide that holiday gift for their family members,” she said. “This is why RB Sunrise Rotarians do their philanthropy project year-round — so that we’re able to fund programs of this sort all across our community.” Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary Club’s 50-plus members meet for breakfast at 7 a.m. every Tuesday in the Country Club of Rancho Bernardo. For details, go to rbsunrise.org.

While that amount ultimately would have to be repaid through higher water rates, the repayment plan could to delayed until after state-mandated water conservation measures are removed and water sale revenues pick up, Vaus said. City staff was instructed to research the matter and bring it back for council consideration on Jan. 12. Notices of Tuesday night’s public hearing on the proposed rate increases were mailed on Oct. 29 to 13,802 customers. Sixty-two customers sent written protests to the proposal. Five individuals spoke out against raising rates during the hearing. In other matters, the council: • Selected Councilman Jim Cunningham as deputy mayor for the next near. He replaces Dave Grosch, who

served two consecutive one-year terms. • Approved a minor development review application to build a residence on a vacant lot Belvedere Drive. • Adopted an ordinance allowing bicycles, scooters and similar wheeled devices unsupervised in the city’s skate park and another ordinance prohibiting political signs on right-of-ways and reducing the size of signs placed in private residential front yards. • Recognized Ed Berger, named the San Diego County Veteran of the Year. • Recognized Derrick Jones as the Poway Sheriff’s Station Deputy of the Year. • Recognized the two Poway Padres Special Olympics softball teams that won gold medals at a recent regional competition.

EDITORIAL

Now the hard part begins to save water

Outdoor temperatures have dropped and weather experts are predicting heavy rains this winter and spring, so why bother to continue to save water, right? Wrong. While the need to irrigate plants and shrubs has subsided, state-mandated cutbacks in water use will be in effect at least until February, and most likely through next summer. Experts say that even if it rains long and hard throughout the state in coming months, reservoirs are unlikely to reach pre-drought levels. The public’s fading attention to dealing with California’s extended drought has been evident in recent weeks, where conservation marks have not been met. In Poway, where officials are under pressure by the state to reduce usage by 32 percent, consumption levels fell 9 percent below that mark in November and missing the October number by 2 percent. Regionally, the San Diego County Water Authority reported last week that usage was reduced by only 15 percent, well below both the agency’s 20 percent mark and Gov. Jerry Brown’s demand that statewide water use by trimmed by 25 percent. Since the state’s program went into effect in June, regional water use has declined 24 percent compared to two years ago, the state’s baseline period. Poway is at 34 percent. None of this surprises local officials, who have known all along that once residents and business owners made significant dents in their water-guzzling landscaping water habits, conservation numbers would start declining when attention was turned to indoor use. The difficult task ahead is to focus on the comparatively smaller uses of water in the home. Statistics show that each of the following categories of use are responsible for 19-20 percent of household water use: toilets, washing machines, showers and faucets. Leaks and baths account for 14 and 5 percent, respectively. To get through the tough conservation times ahead, we’re all going to need to think about the small things: Shorter showers (5 minutes maximum), full loads of wash, and stopping drips wherever they appear. Here’s an example: Poway Mayor Steve Vaus mentioned at a recent council meeting that if you turn off the water while shampooing your hair, you’ll save an average of 500 gallons a year. A drop in the bucket, to be sure. But as the region enters into this difficult conservation period, every drop counts.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Do not go in fear

On Dec. 5, The Temptations held a concert at the Poway Center for Performing Arts. I and 800 other music enthusiasts clapped until it hurt, danced near our seats and rose numerous times throughout the evening, our voices raised in unison to well-known lyrics we have heard over the decades. Then it was announced, “Now, ladies and gentlemen, here are the Temptations singing their national anthem…My Girl!” The words “national anthem” brought to my mind the recent terrorist massacre in Paris. There we were, in a concert hall, in the very scenario the gunmen and bomb-makers choose to cowardly target. The Temptations sang the words about love and everyone sang along. As Americans, we need to keep exercising our freedoms, even as we mourn the victims. What happened in Paris (where I once visited), in New York, (where I grew up) and once again in San Bernardino, (where I attended college) gave me a connection to the victims. We earned our lifestyle of freedom by staying resilient and never giving up in the face of adversity. We should keep going to the coffee shops, concerts, and sport venues without hesitation. Later in the week, my family and I attended the “Carols by Candlelight” concert at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido. I was vigilant, but I did not go in fear. John Wismont Poway

Don’t focus on Patapow

Holding a special election to recall PUSD board member Andy Patapow is a waste of district resources. He will term out at the end of next year. Instead, focus on the district leadership John Collins and his CFO. They are the ones who recommended hiring the bond consultant firm and are responsible for the $1 billion dollar debt. Spend the energy to vet and elect a qualified trustee candidate next November. As a former Palomar

College board member who was part of the team that passed a responsible bond measure and 50 year resident of Poway, I speak from experience. Michele T. Nelson Poway

Cartoon misses mark

Regarding the political cartoon in the Dec. 3 issue: I’m neither for or against the National Rifle Association but to my knowledge, not one of the terrorists or other shooters in the past in the U.S.A. was a member of the NRA. Who do I fear? Seymour Glick Rancho Bernardo Why would anyone be worried about a Texan with a semi-auto rifle and NRA hat? The NRA promotes safe and legal firearm training. The NRA is a friend to law enforcement. The NRA works with legislation to help protect our Second Amendment rights so that we, as free men and women, can protect ourselves from those who would want to harm us. The problem is not the firearm. Be careful of the socialist progressive agenda that wants to do away with the Second Amendment. Exercise your rights and go to a range and shoot. Don’t worry, but be aware. I do not speak for the NRA but as I citizen. You do not have to own a gun to be a member of the NRA but if you believe in the Constitution you might want to consider it.

POMERADO NEWSPAPER GROUP - DECEMBER 17, 2015 - PAGE A15

AU CONTRAIRE BY AMY ROOST

Oh, Canada! The longer Donald Trump maintains his position in the polls, the more research I conduct on where I might relocate to should he become president. I’ve decided Canada fits me like hand in glove which is a good thing since I’ll need gloves if I move there. My husband is Canadian so I shouldn’t have any visa problems, we have family and friends all across the country. Folks are as nice as can be, the cities are diverse, and, being a hockey fan, I know the lyrics to the national anthem, Oh, Canada. Most significantly, Canada’s values and politics align with my own. Take climate change, for instance. While here in the U.S., Republican candidates for president are currently debating whether climate change exists, Canada is providing international leadership on climate change. In addition to pledging $1.98 billion (US) to the Green Climate Fund, newly elected Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is working collegially with conservative and liberal politicians alike to set a new national target for reducing emissions. Trudeau is also proposing a wide variety of election reforms, such as ranked ballots, proportional representation, mandatory voting and online voting. Meanwhile, here in the U.S., voter participation is approaching an all-time low, the Senate is proposing looser, not tighter, campaign finance laws, and the Supreme Court is re-examining the constitutional principle of “one person, one vote,” deciding whether redistricting maps should be drawn according to the number of eligible voters or actual residents. To add insult to injury, the prestigious Brennan Center recently announced 43 U.S. states are currently using outdated voting machines portending a crisis at the polls the likes of which we haven’t seen since the 2000 presidential election. Another example of Canada’s progressivism vis-a-vis the U.S. is the question of how to handle the refugee crisis. Here in the U.S., there’s a bitter debate over how many or even whether to allow Syrian refugees into the country. Up north in Canada, the debate is over. The refugees are already arriving with approximately 25,000 refugees expected to resettle — with assistance from the Canadian government — by the end of February. And they are being received with open arms. Trudeau, met the first planeload that landed and he told the

refugees they’re safe at home now. The front page of the Toronto Star said, “Welcome” in English and Arabic. And it had an editorial talking about how Canadians have watched the nightmare Syrians have gone through and that it stands behind them. This reception is nothing special...to Canadians. Canada has a history of taking in orphans of the storm — think 9/11 and the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. And it is a strategy that has served the country well, both economically and culturally. One reason the U.S. is wary of accepting Syrian refugees is the fear — fanned by Trump —-that acts of terrorism will be committed by the refugees. Canada probably has less to fear because they are less hated by radical Islam. They have sent fewer troops, bombers, and unmanned drones to the Middle East, and instead of killing people and bringing war to those abroad — they offer their country as a refuge of harmony and peace. Speaking of terrorism, Canada doesn’t have a home-grown terrorist problem like the U.S. Perhaps that’s because in Canada rifles are usually reserved for hunting — game, not people — and a handgun is rarely seen except on the belts of police officers. Canada’s firearm-related homicide rate is about seven times lower than that of the United States. Canadian law classifies firearms into three categories: prohibited, restricted, and non-restricted. Prohibited firearms include military-grade assault weapons such as AK-47s and sawn-off rifles or shotguns. Handguns are generally classified as restricted weapons, while rifles and shotguns are usually non-restricted. The AR-15 rifles used by the San Bernardino suspects is classified as restricted. Finally there is the issue of healthcare. On a per capita basis, the United States spends much more money on healthcare than Canada, which offers a single payer system. A 2007 review of all studies comparing health outcomes in Canada and the U.S. in a peer-reviewed medical journal found that “health outcomes may be superior in patients cared for in Canada versus the United States.” Donald Trump talks the “we’re number one” and “we’re exceptional” talk but Canada walks the walk. Now if only their weather was better. A former Poway resident, Roost writes occasionally for this newspaper.

We offer private and group instruction for all levels. Beginner classes are fun, easy and available ﬁve days a week.

Codependency is a revolving pattern of emotional actions or behaviors that cause someone to try and control a desired outcome. Very simply put, being codependent is about you — not other people. On the surface, trying to help people, guiding someone to make a better choice or steering someone who needs help is the right, and kind, thing to do. However, when you ignore your own needs to the point of not recognizing what those needs are, you have crossed the codependent line. When working with families, there is often one (sometimes more) solid codependent in the family system who is trying to “fix” the family member in crisis. From hiding behaviors or completing overdue homework, the codependent gains their power (or feelings of self-worth) from tackling other’s issues. Every person in a family has a developed role. From early adolescence we are all exposed to influences that shape who we are — too much attention, not enough attention, the kind words that were spoken to you, or the bully down the street that tormented you whenever you passed. All of it shapes who you’ve become. My focus is on changing this mindset for the future by changing current behaviors. The goal of family therapy is for everyone to learn new ways of shifting the balance back to healthy roles. With teens and addiction, codependency is a major force at work in a family with one (or both) parent(s) trying to directly fix their child’s actions. This can seem like good parenting as the child is making poor choices either in school or home and the parent tries to help. If that is where it ended, there probably wouldn’t be

any issue. The line gets crossed when this help becomes for the parent — not for the teen. When the parent loses their independence and is relying on others’ outcomes to feel good, it becomes a control issue. When any of us feel out of control, we go back to the ways we know to regain it. Establishing new boundaries and learning to get in touch with their own needs is the only way codependents get better. They must set limits of what they will do or say for others and understand that, while they often have good intentions, the codependent creates more problems for their children than actually helping them. They have to accept that they can’t shield them from every little problem by covering up their action and let natural consequences take place. Ask yourself, “ How do I feel? Am I trying to save the day? Do I know a better way than what we’re trying? If that person would only do as I set out for them, would everything be OK?” If you find yourself answering these things in a way that feels like you want to intrude into others’ lives, it may be time to step back. If you feel like you fit a codependent profile, there is help available through therapy and books that are amazingly resourceful. Get to know yourself and why you operate the way you do, as the result will be a happier person and a better parent.

Poway in new marketing video BY STEVE DREYER Poway is one of several cities being featured in a new 30-minute cable television program that will be aired in markets across the country, members of City Council have been told. Former National Football League star and sports broadcaster Terry Bradshaw introduces "Cities of Distinction," a professionally produced program that will eventually be shown in 34 regional markets on Fox Business Network and ION, according to Jay Virata, the city’s economic development director. The video, screened during a recent council meeting, addresses business development opportunities, the public school system, recreational opportunities and other quality-of-life issues that convinced the Florida-based production company to feature Poway. Mayor Steve Vaus is the city’s primary spokesman in the video, with other community representatives included in cameo appearances. The video cost the city $24,800 to produce. Two business park landowners, Ted Tchang and Ryan Whitaker, donated $5,000 to help defray the costs, Virata said. The video was shown last month New York/New Jersey area and will be aired in Los Angeles in January, according to Virata. It has been be posted on the city’s website.

Husband sentenced for murder BY KELLY WHEELER SAN DIEGO (CNS) — A man who used a shotgun to kill his estranged wife in a Scripps Ranch parking lot following a marriage counseling session, then fled to Mexico before surrendering at the border six days later, was sentenced today to 35 years to life in state prison. Jeremy Adam Green, 40, pleaded guilty in October to first-degree murder in the June 6 death of 37-year-old Tressa Green of Rancho Bernardo. “It’s a tragedy. Everybody loses on all sides,’’ Superior Court Judge Louis Hanoian said. “It’s an unspeakable event.’’ The victim’s aunt, Cheryl Gray, said the defendant was a “selfish monster’’ for leaving the couple’s three children without a mother. “Jeremy is a sick individual,’’ Gray said. Briana Calkins, the defendant’s 18-year-old stepdaughter, wrote a letter in support of him. It was read in court by Deputy Public Defender Julie Gibson.

PEGGY PEATTIE SAN DIEGO UNION TRIBUNE

Jeremy Green at a earlier court appearance. “He has always been an honorable man,’’ Calkins said in the letter. She said the violence her stepfather exhibited against her mother was “so not like him.’’ At Green’s arraignment, Deputy District Attorney Julie Lynn said the defendant and the victim went to a counseling session about 1 p.m. at his suggestion. When the session was over about 2 p.m., the victim tried to get in the passenger seat of the defendant’s car, and he went to the trunk, retrieved a shotgun and shot

her, Lynn said. While his wife was on the ground, the defendant shot her two more times and left her for dead, then fled, the prosecutor said. Green drove to the border, changed his shirt and put on a baseball cap before walking into Mexico, Lynn said. Green was arrested June 12 at the San Ysidro border crossing after voluntarily returning from Cancun, Mexico. The couple had been married since 2005 and Tressa Green filed for divorce in April.

San Diego Council adopts climate action plan BY JAMES R. RIFFEL SAN DIEGO (CNS) — A long-awaited plan to address climate change in San Diego, which has garnered support from both environmental and business groups, was unanimously passed by the City Council Tuesday. “We are a city where the quality of the environment is essential to our quality of life,’’ Mayor Kevin Faulconer told the council members. The plan created by city staff over the past couple of years has, among other things, a goal of reducing emission levels by 20 percent in 2020 and by half in 2035, using levels recorded in San Diego in 2010 as the baseline. The plan won bipartisan backing on the City Council, as well as support from numerous environmental organizations, organized labor and business interests such as San Diego Gas & Electric, the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce and San Diego Taxpayers Association. Five strategic focus areas of the plan are: • Energy and water efficient buildings, with the city providing a mix of regulatory mandates and incentives; • Clean and renewable energy, with the city facilitating the installation of local renewable energy projects; • Bicycling, walking and transit, in which land-use decisions can promote alternative means of travel; • Reducing waste, promoting recycling and capturing landfill gases; and • Climate resiliency, to create programs and policies that will help city officials respond to potential impacts. “This plan provides the framework to create new jobs and preserve our leadership position in the clean-tech sector,’’ Faulconer said. “We will improve public health and air quality,’’ Faulconer said. “We will decrease San Diego’s dependence on imported water. We will increase the use of clean energy, with a goal of 100 percent renewable energy by 2035.’’ A group called the Climate Action Campaign said San Diego becomes the largest U.S. city to commit to producing all of its energy needs from renewable sources. “The beauty of this

according to the mayor, will be creating an ordinance that requires home-buyers to be informed of a residence’s energy and water consumption, developing a master plan for traffic signals to reduce vehicle congestion,

Mayor Kevin Faulconer commitment is that it creates clean air and energy jobs, brings back local control of our energy future, (and) basically puts us back in charge of our energy and water destiny,’’ said CAC Executive Director Nicole Capretz. “That qualifies as a good thing.’’ Councilman Todd Gloria, who got the ball rolling on the plan during his stint as interim mayor two years ago, conceded that the 100 percent renewable goal was “ambitious’’ and “aggressive,’’ but said “we as decision-makers, we as policymakers, ought to set high goals.’’ Of the numerous ways cited in the plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the biggest projected short-term bang will take place at the Miramar Landfill, with the recycling of waste products and capturing of gases, to the tune of 154,467 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually by 2020 and 344,213 by 2035. The report also suggests that optimizing the use of mass transit will have a major impact, lowering carbon output by 119,234 metric tons by 2020 and by 213,573 metric tons by 2035. Over a longer term, a method of procuring energy from alternative sources called “Community Choice Aggregation’’ could reduce emissions by 531,254 metric tons in 2030 and almost 1.6 million metric tons five years later. Faulconer said one of the next steps will be to select a consultant to study community choice. Actions called for in the climate plan require the City Council to approve separate implementation ordinances in the future. Before such votes are taken, the city will conduct a cost-benefit analysis of each proposed action. Among other future steps,

and establishing an urban tree-planting program. He said San Diego also plans to convert half the city’s vehicle fleet to electric power by 2020, and 90 percent by 2035, and have all of its trash tracks be powered by

liquefied natural gas in 20 years. The plan’s provisions, some of which will go before the council as early as next year, might also need to be modified over time as circumstances warrant,

according to the document. After nearly 80 members of the public spoke out in favor of the plan, the council approved it on an 8-0 vote. Councilman Scott Sherman was absent after undergoing a medical procedure.

You should follow a simple rule: If you find something on your trip, leave it where you found it.

Don’t pack pests on your holiday travels The holiday season is a time for travel and exchanging gifts. But if you’re not careful, you could unwittingly give a ride to a dangerous hitchhiker — like an invasive pest, larvae, or even an agricultural virus. So remember, if you’re traveling: Don’t pack a pest in your luggage. It’s easier to do than you’d imagine. Think about how fast we travel in the modern age. You can literally carry a terrible pest or virus from one part of the country — or the world — to another in a matter of hours just by bringing home plant and animal-related items. Maybe that branch you clipped from grandma’s wreath to bring home as a keepsake. Or those bulbs you got in Florida, the kiwifruit you packed in Hawaii, or the citrus you carried in from Asia. The fact is, if you plan to travel, you should follow a simple rule: if you find something on your trip, leave it where you found it. Don’t transport any fresh, raw, uncooked, untreated foodstuffs, seeds, beans, nuts, rice, dried fruit, decorative greenery, untreated wood items, or animal products from almost any foreign country. If you think you’ve accidentally packed some plant or animal item away, declare those products when an agricultural inspector asks if you if you have

anything in your luggage. Does it matter? Absolutely. Agriculture is an important $1.82 billion part of San Diego County’s economy. And all you have to do is read the news to realize it can be challenged. This year we had a quarantine for the dangerous Mediterranean fruit fly in parts of East County and an ongoing quarantine for the Asian citrus psyllid. County Agriculture, Weights and Measures inspectors helped keep Oriental fruit flies from establishing themselves after discovering eight in Escondido, 4S Ranch and Del Mar. And the county continues to battle invasive pests like the gold spotted oak borer and light brown apple moth. We all love our local and state agricultural products, whether it’s our world-famous avocados, our citrus, grapes, fruits and nuts, cut flowers, ornamental plants or other nursery items. Agriculture, Weights and Measures inspectors work year-round to keep potentially dangerous agricultural pests and diseases out by inspecting plant nurseries, shipping companies, the U.S. Postal Service, some retail businesses and occasionally Lindbergh Field. Just remember: Don’t pack a pest!

CIF DIVISION III-A STATE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP BOWL GAME

FINAL GALLOP FOR BRONCOS

RB High looking to add more icing to their cake BY MICHAEL BOWER The town is buzzing and for a very good reason. The Rancho Bernardo High football team is a win away from capturing the school’s first state championship in any sport and, to add to the excitement, the game will be on its home turf. The Southern California Regional champion Broncos (12-2) will host the Northern California Regional winners Sacred Heart Prep of Atherton (11-3) Saturday at 6 p.m. in the Division III-A CIF State Football Championship Bowl Game. Thoughts of playing for a state title did not cross the minds of Rancho Bernardo players at the beginning of the season. In fact, it wasn’t until the Broncos beat Mt. Carmel for the San Diego Section Division II championship on Dec. 5 that they realized a state championship was within reach. “When we started goal setting after last year it was all about finishing the mission — getting back to the section

title game and winning it,” Rancho Bernardo senior offensive and defensive lineman Devin Lecakes-Jones said. “We did that. This is all icing on the cake, but we know it is a chance at a great memory.” That cake made by the 2015 Broncos includes a second straight Palomar League championship, their first section title since 1995 and their first SoCal Regional appearance and victory in school history. Players point out that a loss in the state title game would not take any of that away. “We have accomplished so much already,” said running back Milan Grice, who has rushed for 647 yards and 11 touchdowns in the postseason. “So, even if we lose, it won’t take away anything from our season. But it would be great to win it all.” “We have done everything we can,” said senior wide receiver Devaughn Vele, who made a spectacular one-handed touchdown grab and tossed a 45-yard TD pass to SEE BRONCOS, B4

PREP WRESTLING PREVIEW

Titans tops in section again; Broncos among elite BY MICHAEL BOWER The Poway High wrestling team is once again the cream of the crop in the San Diego Section. The Titans, winners of 29 straight section championships, are ranked No. 22 in the nation by Flowrestling.org and feature three grapplers ranked in the top five in the state. Rancho Bernardo should challenge to finish right behind the Titans in the section. The Broncos are led by Chasen Blair, who is ranked No. 2 in the state at 182 pounds. Del Norte will struggle to fill out the 14 weight classes again, but the Nighthawks are hoping by the end of the season they will have the pieces to put together a run in Division III. Here is a closer look at the local teams: ROLLIN SWAN

They produced two state champions in Colt Doyle and Ralphy Tovar and finished second as a team at the state tournament for the sixth time in school history. It will be hard to duplicate such a season, but Poway

certainly has the talent to make a serious run at it. The Titans return four Masters Champions, including All-Americans Kier and Bailey, and has back six state qualifiers from a season ago (Zollman, Kier, Chua, Kiyono, Garcia and Bailey). Poway is ranked No. 22 in the nation by Flowrestling.org and should have little trouble repeating as the San Diego Section Division II dual and tournament champions. Bailey entered this season as Poway’s highest ranked wrestler in the state. According to The California Wrestler, Bailey is No. 2 in the state behind just AJ Nevills of Clovis at 195 pounds. Kier, who signed with Stanford and took eighth in the state last season, is ranked No. 5 in the state at 132 pounds and Garcia is ranked No. 4 in the state at 145 pounds. Poway has already captured the San Marino tournament title and took second place at the Clovis Shootout, SEE WRESTLING, B5

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Reiter’s passion for hoops shines through on court

Holiday Skate Days At the new

BY MICHAEL BOWER Zach Reiter paused and thought. Still, after a few moments, the Poway High sophomore could not find the exact words to expound his passion for the sport of basketball. “I am not sure how to explain it,” he said. “I just love playing it.” Watch Reiter on the court and there really is no need to have him put it into words. The 6-foot-2 guard’s passion for the game comes pouring out and those around him cannot only see it; they can feel it. “His passion for basketball is obvious,” Poway High boys basketball coach Scott Fisher said. “He plays with such great energy and maturity. His game is improving and it is fun to watch.” Reiter played big-time minutes as a freshman on the varsity last year. He was more of a role player with Dalton Soffer and Matt Beeler leading the way. Now that those two have graduated, Reiter has taken on a new responsibility for the Titans. “Last year Matt and Dalton were the leaders,” Reiter said. “This year I have had to step up as a leader on defense and offense and other stuff. It is a role I am really enjoying.” And he is excelling in it. “His maturity on the court and in the classroom has really improved from last year to this year,” Fisher said. “And because of that, his voice is now being heard and he is viewed as a leader.” Reiter and the Titans have gotten off to a fast start. Poway entered Tuesday night’s game at San Marcos with a 5-1 record, including a 62-59 victory over Morse in the championship game of the Granite Hills Eagle Invitational. That win avenged a season-opening 62-59 loss to Morse. “We were really disappointed when we

He was getting easy putbacks on offensive rebounds, he was driving and finishing at the rim and he put on display his improved jump shot.

“He was huge in the championship game,” Fisher said. “He is really hard to guard because he can score in transition, he can hit the 3, he can drive and he can get offensive rebounds. So, he is a really tough matchup.” Coming up big in big games is nothing new to Reiter.

The Rancho Bernardo High football team celebrates its Southern California Regional victory over Oak Hills. Sacred Heart’s quarterback Mason Randall has proven he can beat defenses with his arm, throwing for 2,646 yards and 26 TDs compared to just four interceptions. Not many have been able to solve Rancho Bernardo’s ball-stealing defense, though. The Broncos are allowing just over 14 points per game and have picked off a whopping 17 passes, led by corners Anthony Barnum (5) and Jeff Molino (5). Rancho Bernardo has forced 12 turnovers in four playoff games. “Our motto on defense is to just stay in the gap and do your job,” Lecakes-Jones said. “And then if we can stop the run then everything else will fall into place.”

The Broncos are hoping that formula works Saturday in front of what is sure to be a packed stadium at Rancho Bernardo High. If it does, Rancho Bernardo can add another piece of hardware to its already-large collection. If it doesn’t, the Broncos will still have a lasting memory. “Win or lose, we are going to remember this for the rest of our lives,” Vele said. “These guys are my brothers and I will always keep in contact with them. We are never going to forget this. It will be a memory that sticks forever.” Tickets to the game are $12 for adults and $8 for high school students (with a valid ASB card), seniors (65+) and children.

Devaughn Vele makes a catch during Rancho Bernardo's win over Oak Hills in the SoCal Regional.

An 18th birthday is a special occasion. Teenagers often celebrate with their family and their closest friends. That’s exactly what Devaughn Vele did Saturday, but his party took place on a football field two-plus hours away and in 30-degree weather. It was perfect, especially after the Rancho Bernardo High senior put together one of the best games of his career while helping the Broncos beat Oak Hills 31-30 for the Southern California Regional Division III-A title. “It was awesome being able to spend my birthday in a football game with all my best friends, playing for

Christian Baker in the 31-30 win over Oak Hills last week. “This is just extra, but we are going to leave it all out on the field, especially us seniors. We are going to end on a bang. We want to leave our mark.” Former Broncos runner Molly Grabill left her mark at the school. She won a state title in track (3,200 meters) in 2010 and in cross country in 2009, but no team in Rancho Bernardo’s 25-year history has won a state championship. In order for football to become the first, it will have to slow down the running game of the Gators. Senior Lapitu Mahoni, who stands 5-feet-11 and weighs 205 pounds, has 29 touchdowns and 1,652 yards on 244 carries this season. Isoa Moimoi, a 5-10, 180-pound junior, has 15 touchdowns and 1,050 yards on 180 carries. The duo leads the Gators’ fly offense. Sacred Heart coach Pete Lavorato taught now-University of Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh a few plays from the fly offense when he was at Stanford in 2009. Harbaugh referred to Lavorato as “the guru of the fly offense,” according to an article by the Peninsula Press. “I have watched a little film on them,” Lecakes-Jones said on Sunday. “It looks like they run a sort of triple-option like San Pasqual, but mixed in with the fly sweep like Poway.” The Broncos smothered the running attack of Poway in a 14-0 win and San Pasqual in a 32-6 victory this season. But there was little worry about getting beat on the pass in those two contests.

**** Del Norte ■ Coach: Anthony Alvarez, 4th year ■ Last season: Lost in semifinals of Division III Dual Championships. ■ Key grapplers: 120, Noah Martinez, So.; 138, RJ Guevara, Jr.; 220, Michael Bulkin, Sr.; 285, Daniel Khodaey, Jr. ■ Outlook: Coach Alvarez had trouble filling out all the weight classes a season ago, but Del Norte still managed to finish tied for second in the Avocado East and reach the Division II Dual Championships semifinals. Alvarez will have the same issue of filling all 14 weight classes this season, but is hoping his guys can repeat last year’s effort or do even better. “We are optimistic to make it to the championship of the Division III Dual Championships,” he said. “If we can fill the lineup when that time comes around or even when league comes around we will be a tough competitor.” Bulkin, a 220-pound senior, leads the way for the Nighthawks. He placed second at Masters last year and went 2-2 at the state tournament. He entered the season ranked No. 6 in the state at 195 pounds. “If he gets his mind in the right condition, I don’t see any reason why he shouldn’t place top five in the state,” Alvarez said. “We are planning on him winning Masters.” Sam Acosta is the last Nighthawk to win a Masters title (2013). Del Norte will be chasing San Marcos in the Avocado East League and Brawley and La Costa Canyon in Division III.

move,” Fisher said. “When he gets bumped he is able to control his body through contact because of his strength. And that was a big emphasis through our whole program in the offseason — to improve strength and conditioning and I think we are bigger, faster and stronger this year and we are hoping it pays dividends.” It has thus far for Poway and especially Reiter. He is averaging nearly 15 points and six rebounds per game. He thinks the Titans can surprise everyone with a deep run in the Division I playoffs. “I definitely think we can,” he said. “I think the sky’s the limit for us.”

I feel like if the team needs me I can be there for a big stop or if they need a basket I can provide that for them.” Reiter worked hard in the weight room in the offseason to ensure he could play with the bigs inside.

Rancho Bernardo ■ Coach: Joe Eddie Terribilini, 13th year ■ Last season: Placed second at the Division II Dual Championships and third at the Division II tournament. ■ Key grapplers: 113, Charlie Hanson, Sr.; 126, Adrian Charbono, Sr.; 138, Chaz Franchina, Jr.; 145, Erik Salcido, Jr.; 170, Godfrey Lozada, So.; 182, Chasen Blair, Jr.; 195, Blake Yates, Sr.; 220, Hamed Samee, Sr. ■ Outlook: The Broncos finished behind only Poway in the Division II Dual Championships last season and will be among the top teams in the San Diego Section once again. Rancho Bernardo has struggled to start the year, but much of that is due to injuries and grapplers still trying to get to their proper weight. In losses to Rancho Buena Vista and Helix, the Broncos had to forfeit two matches in each dual. But Terribilini expects things to turn around. “This week we should finally be at full strength,” he said on Monday. Rancho Bernardo will feature seven sophomores, four seniors and three juniors in the starting lineup. Leading the way is returning state-placer Blair. The 182-pound junior took fifth in the state last season. He was the first Bronco to place at state since Jonathan Beck took eighth in 2010. Blair enters the season ranked No. 2 in the state at 182 pounds by Calgrappler.com. He has a chance to be the Broncos’ first state champion in school history (The best showing at state by a Rancho Bernardo wrestler came in 2004 when Nathaniel Skaggs took fourth). “He is a very talented wrestler with a lot of

The one-handed grab swung the momentum of the game, but Oak Hills fought back to take a 30-24 lead in the second half. That’s when Rancho Bernardo dialed up a wide receiver pass and Vele, a former quarterback, was confident it was going to work. “When the play was called I told Christian, ‘you are going to get your first touchdown. I promise you that,’” Vele said. “When I threw that touchdown to him it was the greatest feeling seeing him smile. He got the touchdown he always wanted.” And that touchdown punched Rancho Bernardo’s ticket to the state championship game, which is Saturday at 6 p.m. at Rancho Bernardo High. The Broncos will play Northern California Regional champion Sacred Heart Prep of Atherton. A shot at a state title is not a bad 18th birthday present. “It was a really special day,” Vele said. “That win and now going to play in the state championship game. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday.”

came at the end of the first half and tied the game at 21. It was on a fade route to the left side of the end zone. Vele put a move on the defender and broke outside before reaching out with one hand to pull in the ball. The video of his catch quickly went viral. “I tried to make the corner bite on a move, but he didn’t,” Vele explained. “I saw the ball in the air and I knew it was too far, but I reached out and the ball just sat in my hand. I guess all that practice paid off.” Vele said he often works on making one-handed grabs. He said the Broncos have practiced that exact play “thousands of times.” But Vele was quick to point out that his catch would not have been possible without his offensive line. “I have to give credit to the line,” he said. “In the huddle, I told them to hold the blocks and we will do the rest. I really appreciate that line. They are all underclassmen except for one. They did a really great job.”

SAVVY SENIOR BY JIM MILLER

Making your kitchen safer to use Dear Savvy Senior, What tips can you recommend for making a kitchen senior-friendly? My wife, who loves to cook, has had several kitchen-related accidents over the past year, which is why we would like to modify to make it safer and more practical. Hungry Husband Dear Hungry, There are a number of simple modifications and inexpensive add-ons that can make a big difference in making your kitchen more age-friendly. Depending on your wife’s needs, here are some tips for each aspect of the kitchen. • Floors: If you have kitchen throw rugs, to reduce tripping or slipping, replace them with non-skid floor mats or consider gel

mats, which are cushiony and more comfortable to stand on for long periods. GelPro.com and WellnessMats.com offer a nice selection. • Lights: If the lighting in her kitchen is dim, replace the old overhead fixture with a bright new ceiling light, and add under-cabinet task lighting to brighten up her kitchen countertops. • Cabinets and drawers: To reduce bending or reaching, organize your kitchen cabinets and drawers so that the items you most frequently use are within comfortable reach. You can also make your cabinets and pantry easier to access by installing pullout shelves or lazy susans. And D-shaped pull-handles for the cabinets and drawers are also

recommended because they’re more comfortable for arthritic hands to grasp than knobs. • Faucet: If you have a twist-handle kitchen faucet, replace it with an ADA compliant single handle faucet. They’re easier to use, especially for seniors with arthritis or limited hand strength. There are also kitchen faucets on the market today (like the Delta Touch20 faucet and Moen MotionSense) that will turn themselves on and off by simply touching the base or moving your hand over a motion sensor. And, for safety purposes, set your hot water tank at 120 degrees to prevent possible water burns. • Microwave and stove: If your microwave is mounted

above the stove, consider moving it to a countertop. This makes it safer and easier to reach. And if you’re concerned about your wife remembering to turn the stove off, there are automatic stove shut-off devices you can purchase and install to prevent a fire. See cookstop.com, stoveguardintl.com and pioneeringtech.com for some different options. If you’re looking to upgrade some of your appliances too, here are some different senior-friendly features you should look for when shopping. • Refrigerator and freezer: Side-by-side doors work well for seniors because the frequently used items (refrigerated and frozen) can be placed at mid-shelf range for easy access. Pullout adjustable height shelves and a water/ice dispenser on the outside of door are also very convenient. • Stove or cooktop: Look for one with controls in the front so you won’t have to reach over hot burners to turn it off, and make sure

the controls are easy to see. Flat surface electric or induction burners, or continuous grates on gas stoves are also great for sliding heavy pots and pans from one burner to the next. And ask about automatic shut off burners. • Oven: Self-cleaning ovens are a plus, and consider a side-swing door model. They’re easier to get into because you don’t have to lean over a hot swing-down door. Also consider a wall-mounted oven, installed at your wife’s preferred height to eliminate bending. • Dishwasher: Consider a dishwasher drawer that slides in and out, and is installed on a 6 to 10-inch raised platform. These require less bending to load and unload. • Washer and dryer: Front-load washers and dryers with pedestals that raise the height 10 to 15 inches are also back-savers and easy to access.

Poway girl lands role on ABC Family show Sixth-grader has recurring part on ‘Recovery Road’ BY EMILY SORENSEN Raquel Justice is used to fame, but with her first major acting role, she’ll be famous in her own way. Justice, the daughter of former major league baseball player David Justice and model and designer Rebecca Justice, has landed a recurring role on the upcoming ABC Family show “Recovery Road.” Raquel, who lives in Poway and is a sixth-grader at St. Michael’s School, will play the younger version of Maddie, the show’s main character, played by “Skins” actress Jessica Sula. “Recovery Road,” based on the popular young adult novel by Blake Nelson, focuses on a teenage girl, Maddie, who is dealing with addiction. Maddie has a reputation as a party girl who doesn’t think she has a problem, until she’s confronted one day by her school guidance counselor and is forced to choose between expulsion and rehab. Maddie decides to live with other recovering addicts at a sober living facility while facing the daily pressures of her teenage life. Raquel’s episode will air on March 7, 2016 on ABC Family. “(Acting) has been a really fun experience for me,” said Raquel, 11. “I know this is what I want to do for the rest of my life.” Raquel said she was bitten by the acting bug after her family appeared on an episode of ABC’s “Celebrity Wife Swap,” where her mom swapped places with the wife of rock star Dweezil Zappa. “It was a really fun

experience, especially when she switched things up,” said Justice. “She took away our cars and made us ride bikes everywhere. It was fun to see my dad having to give up his car keys.” The experience made her realize she loved being on camera, and started going out on auditions soon after, she said. She has auditioned for several other shows, but often times casting comes down

to looks, not talent. “My agent and my mom tell me it’s not that I’m not good, I might just not have the right look,” Raquel said. For one show, she said she wasn’t cast because she looked different from the rest of the cast family, while another, she was too tall. Raquel will appear in one episode of the first season of “Recovery Road,” but said that if the show is picked up for a second season,

her role will be recurring. She will also begin shooting a Youtube-style show for Nickelodeon in January. Raquel said her involvement with “Recovery Road” began entirely as an accident. While on a callback for a Disney show, she met the casting agents for “Recovery Road” in an elevator, and they asked her to come do a cold read. “I tried out and got it,” she said. The Justices have been offered several reality shows, but Raquel said she is more interested in pursuing an acting career, not one as a reality television star. In addition to acting, Raquel is also a singer, though she said her singing is more for her acting career than anything else. “I’m mostly focused on acting, but if I were to become a singer, that would be great,” said Raquel. “I’m big fans of Zendaya and Sabrina Carpenter (two singers and actresses on the Disney Channel), they have great voices,” she said. Raquel said her dream is to be on Disney. “I think it would be really fun to be part of the family,” she said. Raquel said that despite her growing career, she plans to staying at St. Michael’s for her schooling. “I’m really working my butt off to keep up with school,” she said. “My family tells me how proud they are of me, that I’m keeping up with a career like an adult and going to school and being a kid.” Raquel said that many young actors and actresses homeschool, and while she gave it a try, she decided she liked attending a normal school better. “My favorite subjects are language arts and literature,” she said. “I have very awesome teachers, they really understand (about her missing school for auditions).”

‘Salute to Vienna’ returns for 16th year BY EMILY SORENSEN Celebrate the New Year with timeless Viennese music at “Salute to Vienna.” This is the 16th annual “Salute to Vienna” concert at the Jacobs Music Center, Copley Symphony Hall. The concert will begin at 2:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 1. Tickets start at $25 and are available online at sandiegosymphony.org or by calling 619-235-0804. The concert will feature a star-studded European cast of singers, beautifully costumed dancers and the Strauss Symphony of America, featuring the San Diego Symphony, conducted by Viennese conductor Bernhard Schneider. Viennese soprano Patricia Nessy and Canadian tenor Adam Luther will perform with members of the Kiev-Aniko Ballet of Ukraine and international champion ballroom dancers. “Salute to Vienna” itself has been ongoing for more than 20 years, with shows performed around the world. Concerts will be held between Dec. 27 and

The concert will feature several Strauss waltzes, including the famous “Blue Danube,” as well as melodies from operettas. Each year features a new program, but all the concerts hearken back to Vienna’s tradition of Neujahrskonzert, performed by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and televised annually around the globe. Neujahrskonzert is Vienna’s annual New Year’s Day concert. It features music from the Strauss family of composers, as well as occasional pieces from other Austrian composers such as Hellmesberger, Mozart, Schubert and more. The Neujahrskonzert has been performed annually since 1939 in Vienna. “Salute to Vienna” is considered the only authentic re-creation of Neujahrskonzert and is officially recognized by the Mayor of Vienna as an authentic Viennese New Year’s celebration, according to the “Salute to Vienna” website. For more information on “Salute to Vienna,” visit salutetovienna.com.

Blue Danube Waltz, by Johann Strauss Jr., will be performed at "Salute to Vienna" on Friday, Jan. 1. Jan. 3 in 23 North American cities this year, including Boston, Chicago, New

York, Los Angeles and several cities in Canada.

New painting joins Timken collection T

he first acquisition to the Timken Museum of Art collection in 10 years is an oil painting by Francisco de Zurbarán (1598-1664), “Saint Francis in Meditation.” The work is on display in the museum’s Special Exhibitions gallery through Dec. 31. This painting was originally presented to the Timken Acquisition Committee in 2011 and was one of the several paintings under consideration for the past four years. It was eventually selected because, in addition to its inherent superb quality, the Zurbarán offers many pluses to the Timken collection in three general ways: It gives context to the Murillo as there was no other Spanish paintings in the collection, in particular 17th-century ones; it enhances the Italian Baroque works by

COURTESY

‘Saint Francis in Meditation,’ circa 1635 by Francisco de Zurbarán, oil on canvas providing a foil to the classical Baroque as seen in the Timken Guercino; and it provides a link to the Timken 17th-century Dutch and Flemish paintings, said Melissa Cabral of the Timken marketing department.

Zurbarán is considered one of the greatest painters of the Golden Age in Spain and a master of the single monumental figure. Zurbarán worked primarily for the religious orders that flourished in Spain during the Counter Reformation. His best-known works are of humble monks and saints dramatically lit against simple dark backgrounds. "The quality and art historical importance of this piece fully compares with, and enhances the existing collection,” said David Bull, visiting director. ■ IF YOU GO: Timken Museum of Art, 1500 El Prado in Balboa Park, San Diego.

Koi Zen Cellars offers relaxing experience BY EMILY SORENSEN

Looking to relax with some wine? Koi Zen Cellars in Carmel Mountain Ranch is here for you. Koi Zen Cellars, which opened in late April, is an urban winery at 12225 World Trade Drive, Suite P, in the Carmel Business Center. Owned and operated by Darius and Lisa Miller, the winery offers wine tasting; wine by the bottle, case or barrel; custom personalized wine labels; educational classes; private events and more. Koi Zen Cellars was a dream of the Millers that became a reality after Darius experienced a health scare after working for 18 years in the high-stress tech industry. “The goal was always to retire into the wine business,” said Darius. “We’re nowhere close to retirement, but it was the right time.” “Sometimes life throws you a curveball,” said Lisa Miller. They named their urban winery Koi Zen Cellars after the koi pond Darius built in their backyard, where he would spend time meditating and relaxing. “We wanted to create a calming and relaxing place,” he said. “We

Lisa and Darius Miller, owners of Koi Zen Cellars urban winery in Carmel Mountain Ranch. wanted to create a place where people could come and unwind.” Koi Zen Cellars is considered an urban winery because it does not have its own vineyard. Instead, it sources its grapes from Napa, Sonoma, Lodi, Santa Barbara, Paseo Robles and Lake County. All the crushing, fermenting,

barrel aging, blending, bottling and labeling of their wines are done on-site. The Millers specialize in small-batch, hand-crafted artisan wines. Some of their most popular wines are the Petite Verdot and the Pinot Noir. “All our wines are very

tastings, discounts and first access to private events. Those interested can sign up at Koi Zen Cellars or online at koizencellars.com. In addition to holding their own events at their tasting room, the Millers rent out the space for private meetings and parties. “It’s a cool space to hold team-building activities, meetings and holiday parties,” said Lisa. Koi Zen Cellars also works with local businesses as often as it can. They partner with a local artist for painting classes and a local jewelry designer has some of her work for sale in the tasting room. Koi Zen Cellars also sells jams made from its wine, made by a local jam maker. “We’re really big on supporting local businesses,” said Lisa. The tasting room also displays art by local artists.

MR. MARKETING ROB WEINBERG

Did I say that? Last month I wrote about how adding the word “Rotarian” to my LinkedIn title improved my online profile’s traffic. Dozens of readers involved with various non-profit groups caught up with me, reporting that making similar changes to their profiles has created equally positive results. I felt great about providing a community service, and that should have been the story’s end. But nothing’s ever that simple. Last week I heard from Kenton Whitehead, who took issue with my thesis. He observed, in part, “To proclaim that your affiliation to whatever club has (sic.) brought you a ‘higher class of people’ was insulting to the rest of us.” But…but…that’s not what I… He continued “If one doesn’t belong to that group, one is a lower class person?” Wow! I never saw THAT one coming!

My objective in that original column was simple: encouraging readers to parlay any type of volunteering into more contacts, business, and opportunities. It seemed logical that if you promote your affiliation with educational, philanthropic, humanitarian, or other causes, you could locate like-minded people in the crowd. I felt then, and maintain today, that spreading the word about how you’re helping improve the community is a good thing. However, Kenton’s reaction addresses a larger marketing question: Is your message being interpreted by the audience the same way you intend it? As marketers, too often we develop a marketing message that appeals to us. Our audience’s reaction may be considered secondarily…if at all. The problem, of course, is that we’re usually too close to the message and can’t see

potential pitfalls. We use fancy industry terms, ignoring how readers might become confused. And we get into trouble. Long ago I instituted a process of having three people review each of my columns before submitting it to the newspaper. These professional editors and friends typically provide me opportunities to edit out the convoluted and confusing, and as a rule the system works well. Still, nothing’s perfect and I make no excuses. Therefore, I’d like to apologize to Kenton or anyone else who saw an unintended message in this column. And I’d like to offer a special thanks to Kenton for bringing this to my attention and giving me an opportunity to do better next time. See the original article at www.askmrmarketing.com. Please keep your comments coming. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Chamber: Business owners not optimistic SAN DIEGO (CNS) — Optimism among business owners around San Diego County is the lowest since monthly surveys began more than two years ago, the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce reported. The chamber’s Business Outlook Index sank to 17 in October, the lowest since it was started in April 2013. That’s well off this year’s high of 28.1, recorded in March. The index is comprised of four self-reported assessments regarding the next three months -- will a respondent’s business increase or decrease its number of employees, experience an increase or a decrease in revenue, increase or decrease the number of hours its employees work, and experience an improvement or a

worsening of business conditions. The report, sponsored by Silvergate Bank, found that retailers were an exception, as most expected higher revenues from holiday sales. Among the findings, 41 percent of the 202 chamber members surveyed felt revenues would increase in the upcoming months, compared to about half in September. About 40 percent felt that conditions would improve for their industry, compared to 48 percent in the previous study. The survey also found that business favored government action on climate change that balanced environmental and economic concerns.

Locals pen book to teach middle school vocabulary BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK A retired language arts teacher living in Rancho Bernardo has written a vocabulary workbook to help middle school students learn new words. Nancy Forderer wrote “Vocabulary Virtuoso,” which was published last month. It was illustrated by Del Norte High junior Kseniya Belysheva, who was one of Forderer’s tutoring students. “I wanted to find a vocabulary book that

was educational and engaging the students in some way,” Forderer said. When unable to find what she was looking for, Forderer said she decided to create her own with vocabulary words found on standardized, core curriculum and PSAT prep lists for sixth to eighth graders. The 168-page book, available for $16.99 as a paperback or eBook, has 15 lessons that each teach 12 vocabulary words. The lessons contain definitions, pronunciation keys, parts of speech and alternate choices for each word, including synonyms, idioms and phrases. Additional concepts include alliteration,

Rancho Bernardo author Nancy Forderer and 4S Ranch illustrator Kseniya Belysheva with their book, “Vocabulary Virtuoso.” fallacies in reasoning, foreign words and phrases, mythology and journalistic writing. Through exercises, students also work on their critical reading, writing and spelling. It can only be purchased at criticalthinking.com and Forderer said it is ideal for traditional classrooms, homeschooling and students doing independent study in order to increase their vocabulary on their own. Forderer said what makes her book unique is that each lesson is the continuation of a story about a group of middle school students and their teachers. To make it interesting, she gave each a name and Belysheva drew with colored pencils what each of the 20 characters looks like. “I was almost beyond words,” Belysheva said when describing what it was like to hold the book she illustrated for the first time. “It’s odd to see your artwork on the cover of a book. I’m lucky she gave me the opportunity.” While the 16-year-old said she aspires to be a lawyer, not a book illustrator, drawing has been a longtime hobby for her that Belysheva said she would like to continue in adulthood. Forderer said she asked Belysheva to illustrate the book after seeing the sketches she made, which were inspired by the worksheets she was giving her.

Forderer has a bachelor’s and master’s degree in education from the University of Toledo. After teaching middle school and high school language arts for 25 years in Ohio and Michigan, she moved to San Diego in 1998 to be closer to her children and grandchildren. She has lived in Rancho Bernardo for more than a decade. Because she missed teaching, Forderer said she decided to become a language arts tutor, not one who helps with homework, but works with students to improve their skills. She has recently retired a second time and is now working on an elementary level vocabulary workbook similar to her middle school level book. Forderer said what makes her book different from others on the market is that in her opinion the other vocabulary books had “silly” stories that were not connected. “I wanted something where all the lessons together connect to some kind of thread,” she said. About 40 years ago she wrote a history of drama textbook and said she just happened upon The Critical Thinking Company. After seeing it offered little in the area she was focused, Forderer said she decided to contact officials and propose the vocabulary workbook she had been writing.

GOOD DOG GO

Kimberly Moore

pet of the week Grasshopper, a 2-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier mix, is looking for a new best friend. He has made so much progress since he first came into our care back in the end of August as a stray. Initially terrified, he would try to hide and get himself as far away from people as possible. It took some time, and lots of TLC, but soon he was making great strides toward trusting the humans around him. Today, this sweet boy is melting the hearts of volunteers and staff alike, with his sweet nature and eagerness to please. He’s playful, very smart, gentle and affectionate! Grasshopper is available for adoption at san Diego humane society’s oceanside Campus, 2905 san Luis rey road, oceanside. To learn more about Grasshopper, call the adoptions desk at (760) 757-4357.

CSUs note application increases

SAN DIEGO (CNS) — California State University campuses in San Diego County this week reported receiving record totals of freshman and undergraduate transfer student applications during the fall application period. At San Diego State University, more than 83,300 hopefuls applied in the period that ended Nov. 30. The total is a 3 percent increase over last year, and the fifth straight year that a record was set, “We are excited to again see record interest in our academic programs,’’ SDSU President Elliot Hirshman said. “This interest reflects the dedicated efforts of our talented faculty and staff members, our growing national reputation and the extraordinary achievements of our alumni and current students.’’ Among the fall SDSU undergraduate applications are 59,953 would-be freshmen and 22,817 transfer students, up 3 and 2 percent, respectively, over last year. International students have until May 2016 to apply for admission to SDSU, so the final application number will be marginally higher. Cal State San Marcos received 15,161 applications from prospective first-time freshmen, a 12.5 percent increase from last year and a nearly 35 percent increase from the year before. CSUSM also received 8,628 transfer applications, a 6 percent increase from last year. “As we conclude our university’s 25th anniversary, it’s clear that CSUSM has distinguished itself as a first-choice institution,’’ said CSUSM President Karen Haynes. “Students from our region, California and beyond know that CSUSM is an academic community like no other that will prepare them for success while also offering opportunities for personal growth and leadership,’’ she said. CSUSM officials said Fall 2016 applicants can expect to receive notification of acceptance by the end of January.

Holiday season can be a downer for some County offers tips to beat the blues “‘Tis the Season to Be Jolly,” “Deck the Halls” and “Joy to the World.” Everyone is happy this time of year, right? Wrong. The reality is many people feel lonely, sad, anxious and depressed at this time of year. “Feeling restless, isolated and unhappy are symptoms of what is typically called the holiday blues,” said Alfredo Aguirre, director of the Behavioral Health Services division of the County’s Health and Human Services Agency. “While they could occur during any holiday or vacation period, they are more common during the December holidays.” How can you beat the holiday blues? “It’s all about balance,” said Aguirre. “The goal is to take some control over the holidays to avoid the stress and the pressure.” Aguirre also offered these tips: • Establish realistic goals and expectations • Set a spending limit and stick to it • Limit consumption of alcoholic beverages • Get involved with others and spend time with people who are supportive and caring • Look for opportunities to express kindness by volunteering at a shelter, meal delivery service or senior center • Eat healthy, exercise regularly and try to

laugh; laughing is a great aerobic exercise Although they can be emotionally intense and upsetting, the blues usually subside after the holidays and normal routines are resumed. After the holidays, if you are still feeling sad and discouraged, or symptoms last longer than two weeks, you may be struggling with depression, so keep an eye for the following signs: • Loss of interest in once-pleasurable and enjoyable activities • Eating more or less than usual, or gaining or losing weight • Having trouble sleeping, or sleeping more than usual • Feeling slow or restless • Lack of energy • Feeling hopeless, helpless, or inadequate • Having difficulty concentrating, thinking clearly or making decisions • Persistent thoughts of death or suicide • Withdrawal from others “If your symptoms don’t improve and are interfering with your normal relationships, seek help from your primary care physician or a mental health professional,” Aguirre said. For information about mental health resources, visit www.up2sd.org. People suffering from depression or from an alcohol or drug-related problem should seek help by calling the County’s Access and Crisis Line at 888-724-7240. - County News Service

Coldwell Banker testing Facebook At Work Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in the Southwest Region is the first real estate brokerage to pilot Facebook At Work, a business communication platform modeled from Facebook’s interface that Facebook is testing with the aim to completely redefine internal communications. “Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage is proud to be a beta tester of this platform, underscoring our strength as a leader in technology, digital strategies and social media,” said Randy Bragdon, regional marketing director at Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in the company’s Southwest Region, who helped lead the pilot with Facebook for the project. “In

just the short time since this pilot launched, we’re already finding that our employees and affiliated agents are connecting and collaborating more efficiently and a new culture is emerging.” Engaging agents and employees to pilot Facebook At Work has been fairly easy because users can do many of the same things they do on Facebook: follow, message, join groups, share videos and post updates. The unique differences are that everything shared on Facebook At Work remains solely on the company’s Facebook At Work ecosystem and is not accessible to anyone on Facebook’s larger network, and user information is never shared

between personal and work accounts. Tangible results for the performance of the product are easily measured in its analytics. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage has found encouraging results thus far. For example, items posted on the platform, such as training videos that used to generate around 150 views when they were posted to other marketing channels, are now yielding about 750 views from the combined sources. Independent agents are also finding it easier to collaborate over Facebook at Work and speed their interactions, which may ultimately help to improve their business results.

Locals join Sunrise Management San Diego-based Sunrise Management – which has specialized in the management of multifamily properties since 1978 – has added to its executive team, naming Marc Corless of Poway director of human resources and Dan Poteet of Rancho Penasquitos director of information systems.

With a 30-year background in corporate human resources, Corless has also held executive level positions with Petco Animal Supplies, Liquid Investments and Cipher Data Products. He has significant expertise on a multi-state level and will lead and develop human resources operations for Sunrise locally and regionally. “As we continue to expand throughout

the west, Marc will spearhead organizational development, strategic planning, employee retention/relations, risk management, talent acquisition and much more,” said Greenblatt. “We are thrilled to have him on our team.” Corless holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and sociology from San Diego State University. Poteet will manage and direct all technology and business operations for Sunrise, establishing a comprehensive information technology systems plan and vision for both internal and external operations. “Dan has an extensive technology management background in a diversity of industries, and his expertise will be invaluable to us as we continue to expand operations and introduce new technology systems to support our properties and corporate offices,” Greenblatt said. In addition to his role with SDAR, Poteet has held senior level IT positions for a wide range of companies and also ran an information technology consulting business for many years.
