Three Poway community leaders die BY STEVE DREYER Three community leaders closely tied with making Poway the city it is today died within five months of each other in 2015. Original City Council members Bob Emery, 74, and Bruce Tarzy, 68, died on March 3 and July 27, respectively, after extended battles with cancer. Poway Rodeo and Poway Valley Riders Association founder
Russ Sheldon, 74, died May 7. Emery’s service on the council began in 1980, when he received the most votes cast for a seat on the new Poway City Council following incorporation late that year. He served continuously until his retirement in December 2008. Upon his retirement from city service the council unanimously named the
building in which it meets “The Robert C. Emery City Council Chambers.” Prior to incorporation, Emery served 10 years on the Poway Planning and Development Program (PPDP) and participated in the creation of the Poway Community Plan which served as a guide to the unincorporated community’s growth until 1980. “Much of what we love about our community is due SEE DEATHS, A11

For many homeowners in the region, 2015 will be remembered as the year their lawns turned brown. The fourth year of a statewide drought prompted California Gov.

based on 2013 consumption levels. For residents of Poway and 4S Ranch, it meant required 32 percent reductions by customers. Within the City of San Diego, the level was set at a more modest 16 percent. Local agencies adopted rules that went into effect July 1, including reducing the frequency and duration of permitted outdoor watering and banning the washing down of driveways and use of water in ornamental fountains, among other things. In Poway, the city encouraged residents to sign
water conservation pledges, ran a water conservation photo caption contest and posted signs and movable message boards around town urging residents to cut back on water use. In 4S Ranch, which is served by the Olivenhain Municipal Water District, residents in September started filling containers with recycled water from a special faucet on Camino San Thomas. The water is intended to be used only for outdoor landscaping. In the five months since the implementation of the SEE WATER, A11

The Poway Unified School District has had a tumultuous year in 2015. New members Charles Sellers, Michelle O’Connor-Ratcliff and TJ Zane joined Kimberley Beatty and Andy Patapow, resulting in a year of conflicts not only amongst themselves but district staff, teachers and the superintendent, as well a small contingent from the public. A battle kicked off in late March between the school board and the Poway Federation of Teachers (PFT) over contract negotiations for the 2014-15 school year. Then-board President Kimberley Beatty wrote a guest column for this newspaper, saying the head of the teachers’ union “has decided to wage a scorched-earth smear campaign against the school board using lies, false accusations and distorted disclosures of confidential closed session information.” Beatty wrote that the fight was about who controls the budget priorities of the school district, the board or the superintendent, his management team and the head of PFT, Candy Smiley. Smiley responded in a guest column, saying that Beatty’s “unfounded accusations” were “puzzling,” and suggesting that the board learn more about Interest Based Problem Solving (IBPS), the process the district has used for 17 years in negotiating contracts with the PFT, and spend less time trying to win battles.
The PFT showed up en masse to the April board meeting to show support for the union and the IBPS negotiating process. Over two dozen speakers, including former board members, addressed the board on whether the process should be used to address future educational and monetary issues, including teacher salary and wages. Throughout the year, a small group of vocal community members repeatedly spoke up against the district and especially Supt. John Collins, calling for his resignation. This came to a head in November when the group launched a recall effort on board member Andy Patapow. Patapow will be up for reelection in November 2016. The recall effort, headed up by Keith Wilson, a frequent critic of Collins and the district, seeks to remove Patapow from office because he voted to finance school campus costs with capital appreciation bonds, because he has never “adequately” explained his votes, because he allegedly received gifts from the bond underwriters who sold the bonds and because he never fired anyone associated with the CABs. Patapow, who has served on the school board for 20 years, denies any wrongdoing and said that he felt he was being targeted because he, along with two other board members, support Supt. John Collins. The recallers, Patapow said, plan to replace him with an anti-Collins board member, securing enough votes to have the superintendent fired. The recall effort will need to secure 10,767 valid signatures before April 26 in order to have an election held. SEE PUSD, A12

Murder sentencings top 2015 crime stories Sentencing in two murders — one committed on June 6 and the other in 2010 — topped regional crime news during the past year. On Dec. 10 Jeremy Adam Green was sentenced to 35 years to life in state prison for using a shotgun to kill his estranged wife, Rancho Bernardo resident Teressa Green, 37, in a Scripps Ranch parking lot following a marriage counseling session. Green then fled to Mexico before surrendering at the border six days later. The couple had been separated since April. Green, 40, pleaded guilty in October to first-degree murder. “It’s a tragedy. Everybody loses on all sides,’’ Superior Court Judge Louis Hanoian said at the sentencing. “It’s an unspeakable event.’’ At Green’s arraignment, Deputy District Attorney

Caregiver Denis Goodwin, shown in at 2011 court hearing, was sentenced to life in prison for murdering Rancho Bernardo resident Gerald Rabourn. 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. **** On Feb. 15 caregiver Denise Michaell Goodwin, 47, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for killing an 88-year-old Rancho Bernardo resident SEE CRIME, A12
This was a year for turmoil within the food industry, with several changes that impacted the local area. One of the most notable, which drew national headlines, was the arrival and months later closure of Haggen grocery stores. In January, it was announced the small Pacific Northwest grocery chain with 18 stores was going to purchase 146 Albertsons and Safeway (Vons) stores on the West Coast, including the Albertsons in Rancho Bernardo, Poway and Rancho Penasquitos. The stores had to be sold following a merger between Albertsons and Safeway and the local stores converted in May. Within a couple weeks many local shoppers said they were turned off to Haggen due to its higher prices and
unsatisfactory merchandise. Haggen officials blamed the high prices on glitches and later sued Albertsons saying they were given bad information. Hundreds of layoffs soon followed. By September, the chain announced it was closing at least 100 stores, including the three local ones, and declaring bankruptcy. The most recent development was Albertsons buying back the Rancho Bernardo store (it should reopen in early 2016), though what will become of the Poway and Rancho Penasquitos stores is unknown. In other grocery news, the Fresh & Easy in 4S Ranch closed, prior to the company’s remaining stores in California also be shuttered.

Poway gets new ice rink BY EMILY SORENSEN The arrival of a brand-new ice arena, and the prestige of the AHL team that will be practicing at it, was big news for Poway in 2015. Poway Ice Arena, at 12445 Kerran Street in the Poway Business Park, finally opened to the public in early November after several delays from its original estimate of opening sometime in September. While the ice arena has been open since November, it still has not held its official grand opening. The ice arena not only brought a much-needed ice skating rink to the Poway area, but also put Poway on the map in the professional hockey world, as it will be the practice rink for the San
Concerns raised over college’s RB campus BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK New Poway Ice Arena is open. Diego Gulls, the minor-league team for the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks. The Gulls, who play their home games at the Valley View Casino Center, opened their season on Oct. 10. They have not yet begun practicing at the arena, and there is no set date for them to move in. While the Gulls may not have moved in yet, there are many other skaters and hockey players enjoying Poway’s new ice rink. When the rink opened to the public in November, it had 240 kids signed up for figure skating lessons and over 500 adults signed up for amateur adult hockey.
The rink is also home for Olympic hopefuls Stas and Danny Samohin, who moved from Lake Arrowhead to Poway to make Poway Ice Arena their home ice. The Samohins skate for Israel. The ice arena was originally announced in February, when owner Nish Mehta, head of Hattrick, Inc., announced that he and the Ducks had finalized most of the details in a memorandum of understanding signed in October 2014. Mehta and the Ducks finalized the details in late February, and the Poway City Council approved Mehta’s plans for converting part a 114,000-square-foot SEE ICE, A6
In late summer, Palomar College officials began the public component of their environmental impact report for Palomar’s future Rancho Bernardo campus. If everything goes as scheduled, classes for a potential 3,000 or more students will begin by fall 2017. The campus is located on a 27-acre site at 11111 Rancho Bernardo Road, with its sole entrance directly across from Matinal Road and the Westwood neighborhood. In June 2010, the college district purchased the property for $38.3 million. It had a 110,000-square-foot office building, a parking garage and was zoned for an additional two 110,000-square-foot

At the time, Palomar College officials said they did not know what they would do with the property, though many in the community said they assumed it would be used for classes. Officials confirmed classes would be held there when they launched the EIR process during the summer. The process included holding a college fair-style forum in October at Mt. Carmel High School in Rancho Penasquitos. A majority of the attendees were Rancho Bernardo
residents, many of whom raised concerns about traffic and parking overflow into Westwood. They said without mitigation by Palomar, the campus will negatively impact Westwood and nearby areas. Some launched a letter campaign, encouraging neighbors to submit their concerns and mitigation suggestions. Mitigation measures residents proposed included increasing parking spaces beyond the 792 existing spots, not charging a parking fee, opening a second access point and creating a turn lane median so there is no direct access to SEE CAMPUS, A6

Poway makes international news with ‘Playboy’ party BY EMILY SORENSEN Poway created international news waves in January thanks to a Playboy Mansion-themed birthday party. The party, held on Jan. 2, was an 18th birthday celebration for Olivia Lake. According to social media posts, many of which were deleted after the story went viral, the party featured scantily-clad teenage girls and underage drinking. There were reportedly about 150 to 200 people at the party. Word of the party spread like wildlife across various social media platforms. Stories were broadcast and printed around the world. Jeffrey Lake, father of the birthday girl, was cited and taken into custody for allegedly violating the city’s “social host” ordinance, which makes it illegal to provide an environment where underage drinking takes place, regardless of who provides the alcohol. The alcohol was not provided by the Lakes, as the invitations sent out by Olivia stated that her parents wanted it to be a clean party, and that they would kick out any guests who were drinking. Lake was booked at the county jail and released after posting $200 bail. Lake was charged $3,600 to cover the cost of the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department responding to the call, which included the time of the five responding deputies and the sheriff’s helicopter used in the response. Lt. J.T. Faulkner of the San Diego Sheriff’s Department said at the time that Lake, an attorney and unsuccessful 2004 Poway City Council candidate, met deputies outside and reportedly told them they needed a warrant

The $4 million arena includes an NHL-sized ice rink, upstairs offices and locker rooms for the Gulls, a snack bar, pro shop, skate rental area and party room. Public skating is now open and will be available from 5 to 6 p.m. Monday and Tuesday; 3:20 to 5:20 p.m. Thursday;
to enter his home, which he was told was not the case. Upon entering, deputies found a 19-year-old passed out in a bedroom closet, covered in luggage, and a 16-year-old boy passed out in a bathroom. The 16-year-old had urinated on himself, said Faulkner, and his mother took him to Pomerado Hospital for evaluation. Deputies reportedly found minors consuming alcohol out front and in the backyard. There was no evidence that alcohol was being served by Lake or any other adult. Minors found drinking at the party were released to their parents. In a statement sent to 10News and obtained by Pomerado News, Lake denied violating the ordinance and gave his version of events as to his detainment by the deputies. “...I took all reasonable steps to prevent the consumption of alcoholic beverages by any minor at the gathering; I did not allow the consumption of alcohol by minors at the gathering; access to alcoholic beverages at the gathering was controlled; the ages of those invited to the gathering were known; and the activities of the minors at the gathering were supervised,” wrote Lake in his statement. Lake did not deny that there were minors drinking at the party, but said in his statement that he did not provide the alcohol and made all efforts to prevent it. The Lake family moved out of the area several months ago. Lake has continued to wage a legal challenge to deputies entering his home. He lost a hearing at the superior court level. He and the city are waiting for the Fourth District Court of Appeal to set a hearing date.

Leonard fills Poway City Council seat BY STEVE DREYER The election of City Councilman Steve Vaus as mayor in November 2014 created a vacant seat that was filled in January by retired technology executive Barry Leonard. Leonard was selected on Jan. 20 from a field of 20 candidates that was narrowed down to six semi-finalists, then to two finalists. Longtime Poway Road business owner Karen Dunn was the other finalist. In making his pitch to the council, Leonard stressed his business experience, his knowledge of the city’s budget process and familiarity with department heads and the ample time he would have to serve on the council. Prior to his selection, Leonard, 60, had been vice-chairman of the Budget Review Committee, was in charge of community relations with the Green Valley Civic Association and was president of the Bridlewood Country Estates HOA. He lives on Country Day Road. He is completing a term that will end in one year. Leonard recently said that he has not formally decided whether he’ll run for a full four-year
The May council hearing on a proposed off-leash dog area in Silverset Park draw a full house. Poway City Councilman Barry Leonard term, but that he was leaning toward doing do. “My overall experience has been very positive and I appreciate the support and assistance of the mayor, council members and city staff as I learn the complexities of the job,” Leonard said. “I have been able to develop a greater understanding of our wonderful city.” “He has been a great addition to the council,” Vaus said. “He does his homework, he is out in the community and he’s not afraid to ask questions. I hope he sticks around.”
Off-leash dog park debate concludes BY STEVE DREYER For residents in the Rancho Arbolitos neighborhood, 2015 will forever be looked back on as the “Year of the Dog.” Whether a portion of Silverset Park would be set aside as an off-leash dog area was the subject of several long City Council hearings and, finally, a decision on Oct. 20 to not allow dogs to run off leash. Proponents had been asking the city for three years for permission to allow their dogs to run off leash. They argued that dogs running free had been a long tradition at the park that was curtailed
following a rule enforcement crackdown. In May, the council rejected the idea of gating the park’s softball diamond and allowing dogs to run off-leash during assigned periods of the day. Endorsed by the neighborhood’s Off Leash Area Committee, the idea ran into serious opposition from representatives of sports teams that use the field. Their main argument: kids and dog waste don’t mix. The council agreed, especially after being told the city might have to pay $29,000 for soil and noise studies during the six-month trial period. Instead, the council offered dog owners the option of a fenced-in SEE PARK, A11

FROM WATER, A1 mandates, California has seen a 27 percent reduction in water use. Regionally, water use dipped significantly during the summer and fall months but has increased to points near or above the local mandates as outdoor watering deceased with cooling temperatures. Water districts and agencies failing to meet their reduction mandates could face heavy fines from the state. Many homeowners responded to the new twice-a-week watering rules by either allowing their lawns to turn brown or replacing them with drought-tolerant plants or artificial turf. Several local jurisdictions set up rebates for the replacement of turf that were exhausted in short order. The current drought emergency water conservation program expires in February. Last month, the governor issued an additional executive order giving the State Water Board authority to extend and revise the emergency water conservation regulations.
FROM DEATHS, A1 in large measure to Bob’s devotion and perseverance,” original Councilmember Mary Shepardson said following Emery’s death. “He was Poway’s tenacious champion.” One of Emery’s main passions was the Kumeyaay-Ipai Interpretive Center at Pauwai. He was instrumental in gaining over $350,000 in state matching funds for the center to create an education center for the public and for a third-grade education program in the Poway Unified School District. He and his wife also served as docents at the center. Emery retired in 2001 from Hidden Valley Middle School in Escondido after 36 years of teaching at the middle school level. **** Like Emery, Tarzy was a slow-growth advocate and strong proponent of community planning, parks, and low-density development in the city. “Bruce was a force of nature,” Shepardson said.
How the state fares this winter in terms of snow pack and rainfall may influence how restrictions beyond February will look. While weather experts are predicting a strong El Nino season, with plenty of snow and rain, water officials are saying the state would need back-to-back El Nino years before reservoirs returned to pre-drought levels. Meanwhile, San Diego County officials are making a strong pitch to the state to reduce local mandates by giving the San Diego County Water Authority credit for taking steps in recent years to wean the county from Northern California water sources. Efforts have included negotiating water rights with Imperial Valley farmers, expanding capacity at the authority’s San Vincente Dam reservoir and contracting for water produced by the new Carlsbad desalinization plant, which went into service two weeks ago. On Monday, Poway and San Diego municipal offficials leaned the may may reduce their mandated cutback by 4 percent early next year in recognition of the region now using the Carlsbad plant.
“He had more energy than any three people combined.” “He worked hard to place his handprints on the foundational building bricks of our city,” added former Mayor and Councilman Don Higginson. Prior to being elected to the council Tarzy served on the board of the Palomar Pomerado Hospital District and on the Poway Planning and Development panel. After leaving the council he was active for many years in the Green Valley Civic Association and, in 2012, agreed to chair the city’s Oversight Board, charged by the state monitor the closing of the city’s redevelopment. After retiring from his obstetrics practice, Tarzy worked as a medical consultant for the Medical Review Branch, Audits & Investigations, state Department of Health Care Services. He also co-founded and served as chief medical officer of MediKeeper, one of the pioneers in digitizing healthcare and empowering patients. ****
FROM PARK, A10 area. While many connected with the issue though the May vote was the final word, a new plan was proposed five months later by the city’s community services department calling for a fenced-off area where dogs could run free. Two pen siting options were offered in a staff report, costing between $19,610 and $21,132 to build. But the plan failed to generate any support by either the council or the off-leash committee. Susan Busch, head of the committee, said the pen was too expensive, too intrusive and would change the
Sheldon, a 42-year Poway resident, helped start the Poway Valley Riders Association and the Poway Rodeo. He was also very active in promoting the sport of arena polo. “The passion and dedication he had, he carried it everywhere,” PVRA President John South said. “(The PVRA) would not be here today if not for the hard work he put into it.” Poway Mayor Steve Vaus added, “Russ Sheldon almost single-handedly kept the ‘country’ in the ‘City in the Country.’ Considering all he’s done over the decades for the rodeo and for arena polo, Russ leaves some very big boots to fill.” In 2005 Sheldon was the grand marshal of the Poway Days Parade. He served the Poway Rodeo as chairman five times and was a former president, secretary and treasurer of the National Cowboy Arena Polo Association. The PVRA arena since been named after Sheldon and a polo tournament was held in his honor.
character of the park. The best course, she said, would be to drop the matter and concentrate on healing a neighborhood that had been torn apart over the issue. “The issue of dogs in Silverset Park is done,” Mayor Steve Vaus declared at the end of the October hearing.

FROM PUSD, A2 The number of required petition signatures represents 10 percent of the number of registered voters in the district. If the signature goal is met and the signatures are verified by the county Registrar of Voters Office, an election would be held between 88 and 125 days following verification. Potential replacement candidates would be placed on the ballot as well. Voters would be asked whether a) Patapow should be recalled and b) if so, which replacement candidate should be elected. The board also made headlines in December for holding a special board meeting on a Sunday afternoon to hire outside legal representation for itself. The board hired Maribel Medina to represent the members. Beatty said the board was
FROM GROCERY, A3 Poway, was the Coco’s Bakery Restaurant. In the April 2 announcement, Catalina Restaurant Group — that had recently been sold — announced it was closing “low-performing stores ... in order to stabilize the company.” No replacements have come to either local restaurant. In more positive news, several other restaurants opened or announced their arrivals. These included the Jersey Mike’s in Poway (it recently opened near Target). Phil’s BBQ, which was to be open by now in Rancho Bernardo, has delayed its opening until next year. It began an extensive remodel of the former Elephant Bar, but the project got delayed when the building ended up needing to be raized and a new building constructed. In other news: • A new Target store opened in Del Sur on Oct. 7, just in time for the holiday shopping season. Target is serving as the anchor for the new Del Sur Town Center that will offer a mix of restaurants and services. • Petco opened its new corporate support center in the Rancho Bernardo Industrial
seeking representation for “contract negotiations.” Questions asked during the interview process for the lawyers regarded the applicant’s experience and knowledge of representing a school board in contract negotiations with a superintendent, and specifically, their experience in negotiating a disassociation of a superintendent from the district. Collins would say only that “the current situation is that the board and the superintendent have agreed that their relationship is not working well and we need to discuss our options going forward in the best interests of the district.” The board concluded 2015 by electing Michelle O’Connor-Ratcliff board president, TJ Zane board vice-president and re-electing Patapow as board clerk in a consistent 3-2 vote over Beatty and Sellers. Park, in an extensively renovated 300,000-square-foot facility that allowed a consolidation of its 650 employees that had been spread throughout buildings in Miramar, Mira Mesa and Scripps Ranch. A ribbon cutting ceremony was held in October. • Angelika Film Center also opened this fall in Carmel Mountain Ranch. It offers mainstream and independent films, along with foreign films and other arts films (like operas and ballets). It has a café that is open to moviegoers and those not catching a flick. • Several other businesses throughout the area relocated or opened. They include Manzanita Roasting Company, which recently opened in the Bernardo Winery. Also relocating there was Cozy Posies, formerly in The Mercado. In Poway, Perry Ford opened its new building and showroom this summer, part of an extensive renovation to the property on Poway Road. A few blocks away, the Salvation Army was extensively renovated as well. Green Flash Brewing Co. opened a new tasting room and brewing facility called Cellar 3 in May. It is located in the Poway Business Park.
FROM CRIME, A3 Gerald Rabourn and draining his bank accounts of nearly $600,000. Goodwin, convicted in October 2014 of first-degree murder and murder for financial gain in the death of Goodwin, who disappeared in October 2010. His body was never found. Deputy District Attorney Bill Mitchell said Goodwin convinced Rabourn that she could manage his money, then took everything he had and killed him so her crimes wouldn’t be discovered. “She’s a thief disguised as a churchgoer; she’s a killer disguised as a caregiver,’’ Mitchell told Judge Charles Rogers before Goodwin was sentenced. Goodwin was arrested in July 2011 as she boarded a plane for a European vacation. Other major crime stories of 2015: • Abdullah Sediqi, 64, was arrested June 17 by Escondido police on multiple counts of child molestation and child pornography involving several small girls who were being cared for at his ex-wife’s home day care in Rancho Bernardo. Sediqi came to the attention of Escondido police when a woman shopping at Valley Thrift Store on East Valley Parkway said she saw him crouched down behind her with a cellphone in his hand. She moved away but watched as he appeared to crouch down again and take a photo of another woman beneath her clothing. The initial investigation confirmed that photographs of numerous women, including two juveniles, had been taken with the cellphone. Sediqi was arrested on a disorderly conduct violation commonly referred to as “up skirting.” Meanwhile, further examination of the cellphone showed there to be more
than 6,000 images saved of which 23 contained pornographic images of children. New charges were immediately issued and with the help of the U.S. Marshal’s San Diego Fugitive Task Force. Sediqi was arrested again at a home of one of his four children. Sediqi pleaded not guilty to 13 charges, including a sex crime with a child 10 years old or younger. He is being held in jail in lieu of $3 million bail and is awaiting scheduling of a preliminary hearing. • On April 22 Mohamad Saeed Kodaimati, 24, was arrested by federal agents at the Rancho Bernardo apartment where he was living. He was charged with two counts of making false statements in an international terrorism investigation. According to the criminal complaint, Kodaimati falsely claimed that he never had been involved in any fighting, that he never fired his weapon at anyone, that he did not know anyone who was a member of ISIL — known as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant — that he had never told anyone else that he was involved with the militant group Al-Nusrah, and that he had never worked or volunteered at a Sharia court. On Oct. 29 he admitted in court that he deliberately made false statements to FBI and State Department officials during a terrorism-related interview at the U.S. Embassy in Ankara, Turkey. He faces up to eight years in prison. Saeed was born in Syria and became a naturalized U.S. citizen in September 2008. In December 2012, he traveled from San Diego to Istanbul and was in Syria and Turkey until his return to the United States.

The Poway Interfaith Team (POINT) stands together with the Muslim community and calls all people to bring an end to hate speech and actions against those who practice Islam. POINT emphasizes the importance of joining other voices in a stand against acts of violence and acts of racial, religious, and cultural discrimination. We condemn acts of violence by radical groups who do not have a faith even though they claim they do. The focus of the Poway Interfaith Team is to promote community awareness, and understanding of different faith traditions. Diversity and acceptance of our many faiths and cultures are the fabric of our nation’s tradition. There is strength through education and by standing in solidarity with others to promote understanding, peace and justice in this world. Educating ourselves about the true teachings of Islam will bring the understanding needed to separate what radicals believe and what true Muslims believe. Saying terrorists practice the teachings of Islam is like saying the Klu Klux Klan practices the teachings of Christianity. Both are false and absurd. Religious discrimination comes from misinterpreting holy writings; that only serves to harm all of humanity. The Poway Interfaith Team is deeply concerned by these acts. We believe diverse faith traditions in our communities add to the richness of life. When we meet and learn more about those who have faith traditions other than our own, we find many more similarities rather than differences. POINT stands with many others who believe God is love, compassion, and order. God wants us to live in harmony with each other and, “to love one another as He has loved us.” (John 13:34). The Koran 25:63 says, “The servants of the Compassionate are they who walk upon the earth humbly, and when the ignorant address them they answer, ‘Peace”! The Poway Interfaith Team calls on persons of all faiths to pray for civility and respect. We urge every citizen to discuss these unacceptable terrorist acts with your family and friends and even your neighbors to bring about greater harmony in our communities. Albert is executive director of the Poway Interfaith Team.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Don’t waste tax dollars
Please stop wasting taxpayer money trying to recall Andrew Patapow. PUSD citizens, please do not sign the petition to force a public recall vote. I am not defending Andrew Patapow. I am pointing out that this is a waste of taxpayer dollars...yours and mine...if enough signatures are gathered and the recall is put to a public vote. The recall vote is a waste of money since he has less than a year to serve on the PUSD Board. Let’s save our taxpayer dollars. Kimberly Fichthorn Poway
Credible source?
Columnist Dick Lyles (Dec. 10) claims that global warming is not a dire emergency and pointed to an article written by Matt Ridley to support this claim. Although Mr. Ridley is an interesting writer and speaker, his interests are economic and he’s not what could be called an impartial party. His family receives financial gains from coal mining on their Northumberland property although his website fails to disclose how much financial gain by saying “the details are commercially confidential.” He further states that he has been a champion for the development of shale gas reserves which is a threat to the coal mining industry, thus proving his impartiality. What he has failed to disclose is his personal investment with a group that is the world’s largest provider of special equipment used in the process of fracking. Mr. Lyles is correct that this is a divisive issue: economics vs. ecology. Maybe we should leave the decision making regarding global warming to those who have a vested interest in the outcome...those 40 years of age and younger. They, too, have a dog in the fight — having a viable planet to call home. Suzanne Schulte Rancho Bernardo
Climate change is real
A July 29, 2015 Defense Department report to Congress reads, “Global climate change will aggravate problems such as poverty, social tensions, environmental degradation, ineffectual leadership and weak political
institutions that threaten stability in a number of countries.” Our armed forces are preparing for the ramifications of global warming. They don’t believe it is a hoax and in fact call it a threat multiplier. Dick Lyles has picked Matt Ridley, one of the 3 percent of so called climate scientists that dispute the majority on this subject to back his opinion. Ridley contends that 4 million people a year are killed from cooking over open fires but doesn’t say where this information comes from. Heck, that might be a headline in every paper across the country if it was true. Lyles implies that because of climate change, aid agencies are denied funding that would bring electricity to over one billion people. What aid agencies build fossil fuel electrical plants? If they did how would these poor people pay for the oil? How is this related to climate change? Maybe wind and solar work better for these people. Many experts contend that problems in the Middle East and ISIS are, at least in part, due to drought caused by climate change. All the problems in the Defense Department report are upon us. The time to effect a positive change is now. Scott Currier Poway
Finds Roost humorous
Like columnist Amy Roost (Dec. 17), I do not want Donald Trump to be our next president. Unlike Amy, I am a conservative. That stated, Roost has given me yet another reason to hope that Trump will not be elected in 2016. My reasoning: Should Trump win, Amy threatens that she might move to Canada. If that were to happen, I would no longer have her inane leftist columns to read. She almost always makes me LOL (until I have tears in my eyes). We need more comedy in our editorials, and Amy amply supplies it. Larry Hennessee Rancho Bernardo

STRAIGHT TALK BY DICK LYLES
Christmas is love, peace and charity On this eve of Christmas as we bring to a close yet another season, several observations come to mind regarding the Christmas battles we’ve been forced to endure in recent years. I’m not talking about the millions of Christians throughout the world who are fighting for their lives because they are Christians. Nor am I talking about the workers in San Bernardino who were massacred at their Christmas party. I’m referring to the silly, immature battles that take
place every year throughout America about whether or not we can sing Christmas carols at school, are allowed to say “Merry Christmas” rather than “Happy Holidays,” or should even acknowledge Christmas as an American public holiday. It is time to be honest about what Christmas has always represented, the true meaning of Christmas and whether the world is better off embracing the spirit of Christmas as it has been celebrated throughout history.
Yes, in its simplest terms, Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Christ. But the meaning of Christmas — the spirit of Christmas throughout history — has always been focused on love of humankind, peace on earth, charity, and hope. Christmas love is a love directed at everyone. Christmas peace is an appeal for peace throughout the world toward everyone of good will. Christmas charity involves caring for everyone regardless of faith or creed. And Christmas hope is a
A NO-BRAINER BY DON HIGGINSON
When Poway almost shut down Santa Editor’s note: Former Poway City Councilman and Mayor Don Higginson will be writing a montly column. He is calling it “A No-Brainer,” after a comment he would often make during coucil meetings. One of the lessons I learned as an elected official was the need to address the inevitable neighbor vs. neighbor conflict. From barking dogs to uncontrolled loud parties, each opportunity could morph into a dire (and often emotional) situation. Each brought unique challenges requiring open dialogue. There would be some give
and take and even at times, a sanity check. However, the results were usually worth the effort. Fortunately, Poway has had very few “Hatfield-McCoy” moments. Nevertheless, there was the time in 1999 when Poway almost shut down Santa. It all began in 1935 in Berkeley, California with the birth of identical twin boys, John and James Huish. These brothers, as with many twins, grew up inseparable. In 1954 they decided to enlist in the Army, invoked the military “twin’s clause” (at the time not available to brothers or
triplets) and were off to serve together in France. Following the Army they ventured to college and within 30 days after graduating they had built the first miniature golf course in Springville, Utah where their highest “revenue day” was $87. Undeterred, they began looking for affordable land in Northern California. When their search proved unsuccessful, they turned their attention to Southern California. They opened their first California park in La Mesa. The Huish Family Fun Centers (they were the first to combine go-carts,
positive, caring hope that aspires to make the world a better place for everyone. It seems to me that if Christmas detractors cared at all about the world in which we live, relied on even a modicum of wisdom, or possessed even an ounce of common sense, they would be able to discern that Christmas and the spirit of Christmas are good for the world and not bad. Whether or not these detractors embrace organized religion, believe in God, or embrace a non-Christian faith, they should at least possess the acumen to say “the Christmas Spirit is something good about the Christian faith I can accept and embrace, even though I won’t choose to be or to act Christian otherwise.” How can this possibly be a bad choice? Do Christmas detractors
want the opposite of what the Christmas spirit brings to the world? I can’t imagine any American would choose to live in a world without love, a world that is not at peace, or a world without charity. Why, then, this persistent, narcissistic attack? It is petty and immature to say we can’t benefit from the good ideas different belief systems embrace simply because we don’t want to embrace everything those belief systems have to offer. It is time all Americans demonstrate we have intellectual maturity worthy of our stature as leader among nations. So, on this Christmas Eve I encourage Christmas detractors to re-examine the values that animate the Christmas spirit. These are the values of love, peace, charity, and hope which
have stood steadfast for 2,000 years. Honestly ask whether both you and the world would be a better place if you were to honestly embrace those values. Take it one step further. Ask whether or not both you and the world would be a better place if you lived those values year around. Use the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day to set personal goals for 2016 to inspire those values in your work life, your family life and your commitment to our community. Then use those goals to help lead us all to create a better world that is less divided, less angry and less bigoted as of Jan. 1. Lyles, a Poway resident, is a business/management consultant and best-selling author. Reader commentsare encouraged.
batting cages, and bumper cars with a miniature golf course) soon sprang up throughout California, Oregon and Washington. In 1984 tragedy struck when James was killed in a construction accident at one of their parks. Over the next 30 years John built a nationwide chain of family entertainment centers along with the Bullwinkle Restaurant franchise. In 2009 he built “Cowabunga Bay”— his first water park in Utah followed by another water park in Henderson, Nevada. In 2013, the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) honored John and James by inducting them into their Hall of Fame (joining the only other brother inductees, Roy and Walt Disney). Now, back to 1999. Following a one- of-a-kind 65th birthday bash for John and a friend at his home on
Joyas Court in North Poway (this included a parade and a number of buildings from his old parks) his dear wife Kathy suggested they save everything and provide a Christmas event including Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus. On Dec. 1, 1999 I received a “passionate” call from John wanting to know “What has the city done with my signs?!” He had put up his signs on Espola Road. In meeting with the city manager the following day we discovered the city had removed his signs and put them in storage. Following a meeting with John to learn about his plans the city manager pulled me aside saying, “I can just see the “Turko Files” on TV tomorrow night — “Poway is trying to shut down Santa — It just ain’t right.” We worked it out. That first event by John and Kathy (Mr. & Mrs. Claus) evolved into a 15-year tradition. Of course there
were the normal neighbor concerns as this event grew larger every year. John agreed to hire security, cone off streets, limit hours and he worked diligently with the city safety volunteers. Every Sept. 15, a moving van removes all the furniture from the Huish home as Kathy replaced it with 12,000 stuffed toys, lights and ornaments. Over the years 190 Santa volunteers have kept the party going. This year’s event (12 nights) attracted 14,000 attendees with Santa delivering 650 gallons of cider, 2200 dozen cookies and nearly 10,000 toys (all paid for by Mr. & Mrs. Claus). As father age begins to creep in, Mr. & Mrs. Claus will be retiring. So, to trumpet Turko, “Santa, we certainly understand — but it just ain’t right.” Thanks for the memories. Higginson is a former Poway City Council member and mayor.
You’re using less water, so why are you paying more for it? BY DAN SINGER During this historic drought, we have asked that Poway residents conserve as much water as possible. Boy, have you answered the call! Since June, the city has collectively conserved 33.2 percent, making Poway one of the biggest water savers in the county. For that, I want to say thank you! I know this has not been easy on any of us, but as always Powegians have stepped up to the challenge and have done what needed to be done. Last week, the Poway City Council debated whether to increase water and sewer
rates. During a drought, this decision can be particularly difficult as we are already tasked with conserving and being water conscious. But, due to a number of factors, the council determined the most responsible decision was to raise the rates in order to ensure Poway retained safe and reliable drinking water. In the midst of droughts, water use and sales decline. This means our revenue is not sufficient to pay for necessary costs and maintenance. Customers are asking: “Why not just cut costs?” Yet the city’s fixed costs, which include maintenance and operations, have
only seen a minor increase since 2007. These fixed costs account for 40 percent of our expenses. Our administrative costs have also been kept as low as possible over the past nine years these costs have only marginally increased. On top of decreased water sales, the cost of water has more than doubled over the past nine years. Because of Poway’s limited local supplies, we rely upon water deliveries from the San Diego County Water Authority. This increase in the price of water over the past decade is largely due to a number of projects the authority undertook to improve the capacity and reliability of our region’s local
water supply. These include increasing the capacity of the San Vicente Dam, lining the All American and Coachella water canals, and building the Carlsbad desalination plant. Yet achieving water diversification and reliability comes at a cost. Additionally, these rate increases will help Poway renovate our water infrastructure. The complex system, which carries water throughout Poway, continues to age. The 289 miles of underground pipe and the city’s water treatment plant requires constant maintenance. It seems like every other week we hear about a water main breaking SEE WATER, A16

has a clown car full of candidates where ideological purity trumps electability. Oddly enough, it’s the conservatives’ current leader who is the open mouth, insert foot outsider. Meanwhile, the liberal party’s leader is a well rehearsed, ultimate Beltway insider and a Wall Street favorite. Go figure. Those who belittle Mr. Trump miss the point. The Donald is mining a huge vein of discontent within the body politic. People are frustrated with Washington. I bet many of his supporters don’t agree with everything he says. But his blunt talk is refreshing and portends something different. It is ironic, the staid GOP has an agent of change as their current leader, while the Democrat’s top two candidates have spent decades in Washington. While I find the prospect of a Trump or Clinton administration disheartening, I don’t fear either. I believe in checks and balances, neither will be a dictator.

Consquences of guns
Two recent letters to you regarding the firearms situation in the U.S. beg for a response. Leaving aside the frequent and well reported mass shootings, there are two lesser known, but equally tragic consequences of the American gun problem. A relatively large proportion of firearms fatalities are due to suicides, with a gun being the favored method of doing away with oneself. While other forms of suicide attempts have a higher rate of rescue, those from guns are more likely to be fatal. A second consequence of the gun problem is the effect on the war on drugs. Mexican cartels ship us the drugs, and we send them the firearms that cause mayhem among their residents. Finally, in response to NRA proposals that more guns would result in fewer mass shootings, an unnamed woman on TV recently stated that “with 300 million guns in this country, we should be the safest nation on Earth.” Harvey W.

Broncos cap magical run with state championship BY MICHAEL BOWER Devaughn Vele slid down on the rain-soaked turf after securing an interception. His teammates rushed over to mob him. The crowd, which filled the home side at Rancho Bernardo High, erupted and were louder than ever before as the rain continued to fall harder. It was a scene that will forever be etched into the memories of those who attended Saturday night’s CIF Division III-A State Football Championship Bowl Game. And it was a moment Broncos players and coaches will remember for a lifetime. Vele’s pick in the final minute put the finishing touches on Rancho Bernardo’s 35-14 victory over Sacred

We are state champions and nobody can take that away from us.

Broncos QB Mark Salazar Heart Prep-Atherton in the state title game. It is the first state championship in any sport for Rancho Bernardo and it came in front of an electrifying home crowd that powered through the rain near the end to watch the historic celebration take place. "This is crazy," said Broncos senior wide receiver Vele, who hauled in a pair of high-soaring touchdowns to go along with his pick. "This is the greatest feeling in the world. The stands are packed and we were representing our town and we won a state title.
This is unbelievable." It really is, especially when thinking about where Rancho Bernardo finished just two years ago. The Broncos went 1-9 in the regular season for the second straight year, but they quickly rose to the top. It started with a Palomar League title and a runner-up finish in the San Diego Section Division II playoffs in 2014. Then came 2015, a season that will go down as the best in the history of the school. The Broncos (13-2) repeated as Palomar League champions, captured the section’s Division II championship, the Southern California Regional title and now the state crown. "After that last 1-9 season, we knew we had a lot of opportunities to win games SEE STATE, B5

PREP BASKETBALL
Tournaments to take over holiday season BY MICHAEL BOWER This is the time of year basketball coaches often try to cram in as many tournaments as possible before turning to a new calendar. Del Norte High boys basketball coach Bob Spahn knows the drill, but he is trying something different this season. “Most schools play in three tournaments in the month of December,” he said. “It makes it difficult to get in practice time and work on the things you are not doing right. I am excited about this year. We are only doing two in December. So, we are really going to have time to prepare for the Mt. Carmel tournament.” It’s a concept that is worth a try. The Nighthawks (1-5) are young and Spahn is still trying to figure out his lineup. Playing games helps him make decisions, but without practice his team cannot learn from its mistakes and grow. “We are still working on our blue print and introducing new things,” Spahn said. “One thing I have learned is I thought we could be a team that gets up the floor and uses some shot clock, but I am realizing that is not our nature. We have to get up the floor and shoot often. We wouldn’t be able to adjust to that with three tourneys in December.” Del Norte competed in the Coast News Tip-Off Classic earlier this month, going 1-5. Now the Nighthawks are preparing for the 16-team Mt. Carmel Holiday Hoops Classic, which is set to begin on Monday. Rancho Bernardo is also competing in the tournament. Del Norte is hoping to collect a few wins, especially since it plays a brutal schedule for a Division III squad. “We have a tough schedule,” Spahn said. “We are a Division III team and that is where we need to be right now. But if you look at our schedule, 22 of our 27 games are against Division I or Division II teams. Of those, five of them will be against teams that will probably be in the Open Division. I don’t know what our record

The five division, 81-team tournament begins Saturday. The Titans are in the Governors Division, which will be played at Santa Fe Christian. Poway opens against Francis Parker on Saturday at 11 a.m. The championship game of the division is slated for Wednesday at 8:05 p.m. The Titans captured the Eagles Invitational tournament title earlier this month.

Rancho Bernardo (2-3) will face Mira Mesa at 11 a.m. A player to watch for Del Norte is 6-foot-4 forward Conner Nelson, who is averaging around six blocks per game. “He is a guy who can do a lot for us,” Spahn said. “He can play way above the rim and a lot of small colleges and the junior colleges having been asking about him.” The player to watch on the Broncos is JJ Overton.

Poway is in Pool ‘A’ and Rancho Bernardo is in Pool ‘B.’ The Titans open against Santa Fe Christian Saturday at 12:30 p.m. at Del Norte High. Rancho Bernardo plays Cathedral Catholic at 2 p.m. at Del Norte. It is the possible the two meet on the final day of the tournament, but they would have to finish in the same place in their respective pools.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
Salazar stays cool for Rancho Bernardo
Fast becoming the number one family club of North San Diego County.
BY MICHAEL BOWER Mark Salazar strapped on his pads, pulled on his helmet and took the field for pre-game warmups before Saturday night’s CIF Division III-A State Football Championship Bowl Game. Just ahead of the Broncos’ junior quarterback was the biggest game of his career and the biggest game in the history of the school. To add even more pressure, the game was being played at Rancho Bernardo High in front of a packed home-side crowd. But, somehow, none of that weighed on Salazar’s mind. “I didn’t have any nerves,” he said. “I just looked at it as this is the last game I am going to get to play with the seniors. I just wanted to go out and have some fun. I was actually really calm and focused on playing for the seniors.” “Calm” and “focused” are not often words used to describe a first-year varsity starting quarterback. But Salazar has been those two things since the first day he stepped on campus as a sophomore after transferring from Francis Parker. And not even playing for a state championship was going to change that. “He is a very composed kid,” Rancho Bernardo football coach Tristan McCoy said. “He doesn’t get too high or too low and he is very smart. He has a great football IQ. “We knew he was something special right away.” And in case the town didn’t know it before Saturday night, they now too know Salazar is something special. The 6-foot-3, 185-pound signal-caller was nearly flawless while dissecting Sacred Heart Prep’s defense, completing 12 of 14 passes — one incompletion was a drop — for 186 yards and two touchdowns. He was 10-for-10 for 162 yards with under nine minutes left in the game, which the Broncos won 35-14. “I didn’t realize it when I was 10-for-10,” said Salazar, who finished the year with 2,248 yards passing with 21

Rancho Bernardo High quarterback Mark Salazar, shown here during the SoCal Regional, played nearly flawless in Saturday's state title game. TDs and just eight interceptions. “They had some great guys on defense, but I was just really dialed in on my reads. I studied a lot of film that week and that was huge. Our coaches also called some really nicely designed play and that opened things up for us.” It was the first state title in any sport for Rancho Bernardo. Salazar’s performance proved there is no moment too big for him. He credits his mom for helping to prepare him. “She always had me playing in leagues with the older kids when I was little,” he said. “I was playing football and basketball with kids three or four years older than me so I got comfortable under pressure and in crowds. I actually play better when there are a lot of people watching.” Salazar soaked in every minute of the post-game celebration. And in case he wants to relive it, he recorded everything on his GoPro. In fact, he has celebration footage from the San Diego Section Division II championship game and the SoCal Regional title win at Oak Hills High.
“I am definitely going to remember the environment and the crowd was amazing for the state title game,” said Salazar, who went 5-0 in the postseason and has an all-time record of 23-2 (including his 10-0 record at the junior varsity last year) as a quarterback at Rancho Bernardo. “I will remember some of the big plays to Devaughn and Milan’s run and the defensive stops. I will remember this all for a very long time.” And should he forget, there will eventually be two rings to remind him of it. “We will get one for the section title and one for the state title,” Salazar said. Colleges have yet to come knocking on his door. But Salazar has known since the fourth grade that he wants to be a quarterback for a Division I school and eventually play in the NFL. “That’s the dream,” he said. “I definitely want to play Division I college football. That is my top goal right now and I am just working hard in the classroom and on the field to get a shot.” And you can bet that Salazar will be calm and focused when he does.

PREP GIRLS WATER POLO
Local teams plan to contend for section titles BY MICHAEL BOWER All three local girls water polo teams could end up being in the hunt for a section title come February. Rancho Bernardo, the defending San Diego Section Division I champions, has the talent to repeat. The Broncos might not get the opportunity, though, if they end up making the eight-team Open Division playoff bracket. Poway and Del Norte are in Division II and are considered threats to win the section title. Both teams reached the quarterfinals before losing last season. Here is a closer look at the local teams:
Poway ■ Coach: Ashley Purdy, 1st year. ■ Last season: 9-13, lost quarterfinals of Division II playoffs. ■ Division: II ■ Key players: C, Sam Ruskin, Jr.; GK, Rebekkah Williams, Sr.; 2M, Carly Lupien, Jr.; Util., Torrey Hirning, Sr. ■ Outlook: The Titans have the talent to make a deep run in the Division II playoffs, but not having a pool to practice in for the next two months (broken) is going to be a huge obstacle. “It is hard to play a sport when you don’t have a facility to use,” said Purdy, a 2011 Mt. Carmel graduate who played four years of water polo at UC Irvine. “I honestly think all of the girls have the raw talent and I think our strength will be how well we work together, but that is dependent on practicing together and right now we do not have a pool.” Ruskin and Lupien are expected to be the leading goal scorers, while Hirning will anchor the defense for the Titans, who reached the San Diego Section Division II playoffs last year. Poway should be competitive in the Palomar League along

Diego Section championship since 2003 last season. Rancho Bernardo has the talent to repeat in Division I, but it will be tough to win another section championship should the Broncos do well enough in the regular season to reach the eight-team Open Division. “We are excited about this season,” Gleason said. “We think we will end up in Division I, but if somehow we make the Open then that would be great. It would be the first time and we would be excited about it.” The Broncos are 5-3 and have been led by returners Rhodes and Alejandro in scoring. Rhodes has a team-best 16 goals and six assists. Alejandro has found the back of the net 10 times and is tied with freshman Michael Barton for the team lead in assists with seven. Rancho Bernardo is strong in the cage, as one of the top goalkeepers in the county, Devlin, returns. The senior played a huge role in the Broncos’ section championship run last year. “I cannot say enough about her,” Gleason said. “She does things other goalies cannot do. It is not just blocking the shots, she can throw the ball all the way down on a fast break and create opportunities for us. Not many girls can do that.” The Broncos will play a challenging non-league schedule, which includes competing in the prestigious Holiday Cup Tournament in Newport Beach. That begins Tuesday. The Palomar League will also be tough with defending champion Westview, Torrey Pines and Poway all capable of making a run at the championship. ****

FROM STATE, B1 that we didn’t," said fifth-year Broncos coach Tristan McCoy, who was a player on the 1993 and 1995 Rancho Bernardo section championship teams. "I don’t think we can say we expected this to happen, but we knew we had the potential to be a great team." Junior quarterback Mark Salazar was nearly flawless in the win, completing 12 of 14 passes for 186 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He also ran for a score. Junior running back Milan Grice had 26 carries for 125 yards and two touchdowns. And the defense forced three turnovers, as Rancho Bernardo never trailed en route to adding another piece of hardware to its trophy case. "This is indescribable," said senior cornerback Anthony Barnum, whose interception in the third quarter led to a touchdown and a 21-7 lead. "I just want to thank my teammates for all their hard work and for putting in all those hours. We have really become a brotherhood and that is the reason why we went so far." The magical season did not come without adversity. The Broncos were dealt a humbling 20-17 loss by Westview on Oct. 9. But rather than dwell on it, they used it as fuel and ended up winning nine straight to close the year. There were tough times to overcome off the field, too, as three people the program holds dear to its heart died during the season. Lineman Evan Blakeney’s mother, Debbie Blakeney, succumbed to a rare cancer on Oct. 29. Former Bronco Bobby Byron, a 2012 graduate and all-league linebacker, was killed in a tragic car accident in Florida on

Oct. 25. And Peter Martin, a 1996 RB graduate and former football player, died in late August. "It was hard," said Vele, who finished with seven catches for 126 yards and the two scores. "It definitely brought us closer. We were already a brotherhood, but we really came together and we realized there is so much more to life than football." Football was the focus on Saturday, though. Rancho Bernardo built a 14-0 lead after Grice scored on a 42-yard run late in the first quarter and Salazar capped an 11-play drive with a 1-yard sneak with 8:21 left in the second quarter. The Gators (11-4) cut the deficit to 14-7 when Mason Randall hit Andrew Dashbach for a 21-yard touchdown as time expired in the first half. But out of the break is when the Vele show began. The 6-foot-4, 180-pounder extended the lead back to 14 with a leaping 22-yard reception in the end zone with 2:03 left in the third quarter. Still, the Broncos could not ditch the Gators. The first play of the ensuing drive, Randall found Daschbach again. This time it was for a 76-yard touchdown, making it a 21-14 game with 1:40 left in the third quarter. Vele and the Broncos would not be denied on this night, though. After a 47-yard reception by Vele, Grice powered in from the 1-yard line to give the Broncos a 28-14 lead with 9:21 to go. Then, with 1:54 left, Vele scored the final touchdown of his prep career by out leaping a pair of defenders for a 20-yard score. "We did what we had to do to win," Salazar said. "Now we are state champions and nobody can take that away from us."
Deck, Zamoyski and Czajka are all back and are team captains. “It is amazing for as young as we are, but I think one of our strengths is our leadership,” Avila said. “This is the first time that we have had all sophomore captains and they are doing a fantastic job.” Czajka and Zamoyski are the leading goal scorers for the Nighthawks. Del Norte, who took second in the Avocado East League last season, should be in the mix with Poway, Scripps Ranch, West Hills and Mar Vista for the Division II championship.
“The goal is to get back where we were last year and beyond,” Avila said. “I think we are on the right track to do that so far. We just have to continue to work hard and stay healthy and I think good things can happen for us.” Del Norte and Mission Hills should battle for the Avocado East League title again. Two-time champion Mission Hills edged Del Norte in overtime to win the title last year. “We should give Mission Hills a competitive game again,” Avila said. “I know the girls are excited to play them.”

Comedian Yakov Smirnoff will be performing his new one-man show "Happily Ever Laughter" on Jan. 9. talk, “Happily Ever Laughter,” is something that Smirnoff has been working on for the last 20 years at his personal theater in Branson, Missouri. “This is something I’ve been passionate about for the last 20 years,” said Smirnoff. “It’s been testing in front of 4.5 million people.” Smirnoff said the special will first air in Southern California,
and if it does well, it will air nationwide. Smirnoff has had his own theater in Branson for 23 years, and said it’s nice to have an audience of 2,000 people who can give his material feedback on a regular basis. “It’s a rare thing for a comedian to have that, it’s like my laboratory of laughter,” said Smirnoff. “Edison

developed the lightbulb, I’m developing the laughbulb.” “Happily Ever Laughter” talks about sustaining happiness in relationships. It is a result of Smirnoff’s fascination with laughter as a gauge of how happy a person is, something he has studied for years. Smirnoff said he had been fascinated with laughter ever since the first time he made his parents laugh. Living in a communal apartment with eight other families in Russia as a child, Smirnoff said that when his parents wanted to be romantic, they would send him to look out the window of the one room they shared. “My father asked what I saw out the window, and I said I saw the neighbors being romantic,” said Smirnoff. “When he asked how I knew (they were being romantic),” I said because I can see their families looking at me.” Smirnoff said his father laughed at that, and it was the first time he’d made him
laugh. “It was so exciting and uplifting,” Smirnoff said. “I concluded that laughter is how people communicate that they are happy. And if laughter is the gauge of happiness, we have more control over our lives (if we are aware of how much we laugh).” He obtained his master’s degree in positive psychology in 2006, studying under Martin Seligman, the founding father of positive psychology. Smirnoff’s dissertation was to prove that laughter can be used as a gauge of how happy a person is. “It’s really been a fascinating experience,” said Smirnoff, who teaches a course on happiness and laughter at the University of Missouri. “(“Happily Ever Laughter”) is funny, but it’s also backed up by solid research,” said Smirnoff. The show will be followed by a question and answer session with Smirnoff.

PROFESSIONAL | PERSONAL | PETS pet of the week Harmony, a 5-year-old Rottweiler mix, is looking for a cozy place to call home. This lovely girl was transferred from another shelter because she wasn’t feeling very well. Her medical team has been working very closely with her and now that she is feeling better, she’s ready for a new home! Harmony’s caregivers can’t say enough good things about this girl. She is unbelievably sweet with everyone she meets, easy-going and docile. She appears housebroken, never tears up her bedding, and is eager to please. Harmony is an affectionate girl and would love a gentle, calm home who will take her on leisurely walks and let her snuggle on the couch. Harmony is available for adoption at the San Diego Humane Society’s San Diego Campus at 5500 Gaines Street. To learn more about making her part of your family, please call (619) 299-7012.

San Diego’s population up by 28K SAN DIEGO (CNS) — If the region feels more crowded and congested these days, it’s because San Diego County added just over 28,000 new residents in a one-year period, the state Department of Finance reported. San Diego County’s population on July 1 of this year was 3,275,546, up 0.86 percent from July 2014. The number of people added ranked second among the state’s 58 counties, while the percentage was tied for 21st, according to the state report Los Angeles County added nearly 68,700 new residents, and is the state’s most populous at nearly 10.2 million. Overall, California’s population grew by 346,000 to a total of 39.1 million, according to the report. Most of the increase was due to births minus deaths, but around 84,000 moved into California from elsewhere around the U.S. or other countries. In San Diego County during the one-year period, there were almost 45,000 births and nearly 20,000 deaths, for a natural increase of around 25,000 people. About 3,000 more moved into the region. The Department of Finance said the population estimates were developed using data from a variety of sources, including birth and death counts provided by the Department of Public Health, number of driver’s licenses and driver’s license address change data from the Department of Motor Vehicles. The authors of the study also used housing unit data from local governments, school enrollment information from the Department of Education, and federal income tax return data from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

Interior design trends to try for 2016 (StatePoint) Each January, people make vows to eat right and save money. But what goals are set for their homes? “The New Year brings fresh perspective and is the perfect time to experiment with décor,” says Taniya Nayak, interior designer and DIY television personality. Here are four home décor trends Nayak predicts will be filling your Pinterest feed in 2016.
Nature’s patterns
For clean interior spaces with lots of detail, try simple designs inspired by nature, such as honeycombs, florals and leaves. “Pair these with neutral colors for a soothing atmosphere, or blow them up and paint them in a bright color for a bold statement,” says Nayak. You can also integrate natural patterns through accent pieces, such as light fixtures that have reflective metals to mimic sparkling water, or a textured jute rug.
Presswork palette
Generate conversation and set the tone for your space by incorporating text into your
décor -- think monograms, family names or inspirational quotes. “Use various fonts and sizes to create different moods,” says Nayak. “Letters can be sharp and defined to create a contemporary and stylish aesthetic, or soft and casual for an elegant and timeless feel.”
Digitally defined
“Geometric shapes and angles have become associated with technology; evoking creativity and innovative design,” says Nayak. Incorporate this trend with geometric floor tiles in different colors. Or use pixilation for a modern, clean look. Pixelated artwork made up of monochromatic cubes can be simplistic and versatile.
Fresh and fab
Multiple bright colors mixed together elevate the mood in any space. Paint a bold accent wall for an eye-catching statement. Or brightly paint a piece of antique furniture for an unexpected combination of modern and traditional.

Barber shop offers comfortable space for men BY EMILY SORENSEN Looking for a good haircut or hot lather shave? The Man Cave Barber Shop is the place for you. The Man Cave Barber Shop, at 15731 Bernardo Heights Pkwy, Suite 104 A and B in Rancho Bernardo, offers men’s hair cuts, hot lather shaves and beard trims. The barber shop is owned and operated by DeAnna Hood and has been open for about four months. “It’s a fun little place,” said Hood, who has been cutting men’s hair for 30 years. Hood encourages her clientele to relax and make themselves at home. She said she encourages them to help themselves to the beer, soda and water she keeps in the fridge and the snacks in the cabinet.
“I want this to be a place where a guy would feel comfortable hanging out, like a garage,” said Hood. “I encourage (my clients) to do what they want. I want them to feel comfortable. You wouldn’t ask permission to grab a beer in your garage.” The salon is decorated in a vintage style, resembling a garage, complete with vintage signs and decorations. Hood said she also asks her clients if they would prefer to watch television or listen to music while she works. “It’s very personal,” she said. “All my attention is focused on the person in the chair. It’s all geared for customer service. It’s not about me, it’s about them when they come in here.” This is Hood’s first barber shop. She has previous worked with her mother, also a men’s hair stylist, and rented chairs
DeAnna Hood, owner and stylist of The Man Cave Barber Shop in Rancho Bernardo. in salons and barber shops. “It’s awesome, having my own shop,” said Hood. “Everyone is so receptive, I love it.” Hood said she has gotten great feedback from customers about her barber shop. “They’ve said they like the concept and atmosphere, and that they feel pampered,” she said.
ASK MR. MARKETING BY ROB WEINBERG
She began cutting hair in her mother’s shop when she was 15. “My
mom said, ‘you’re going to school to cut hair,” so I did,’ said Hood. Hood took night classes for two years and earned her stylist license when she was 17, then apprenticed in her mother’s shop before going out on her own. She has also cut hair for the military. At The Man Cave Barber Shop, every men’s cut comes with a shampoo with scalp massage, styling, a shoulder massage and a hot lather straight razor shave on the back of the neck. Hood said the average cut takes about 40 minutes and
costs $25. Hood also offers hot lather shaves for $35, beard trims for $15 and beard trims with razor edge for $20. The Man Cave Barber Shop is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, and Saturday by appointment only. It is closed on Sundays. Walk-ins are welcome, but Hood said appointments are highly recommended because spots fill up fast. To make an appointment or for more informaiton call 858-205-4374.
Winery’s ‘Breakfast with Santa’ Due to popularity, Bernardo Winery expanded its “Breakfast with Santa” to two mornings this year, which was held on Saturday and Sunday. The event typically sells-out days in advance. This year’s breakfast included opportunities to get an up-close look at wildlife brought by Wild Wonders, a magic show featuring magician Alfonso Vazquez and an opportunity for youngsters to share their wish lists with Santa Claus.

Waste not, want not My mailbox overflowed this morning, due largely to two of the same oversized mailings from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Two computer-generated “personalized” letters told me everything I ever wanted to know about leukemia. “Personalized” certificates of appreciation (with the same typos as the letters), postage paid return envelopes, and coinboards were enclosed. Coinboards, of course, are those cardboard stands by cash registers asking for our spare change. You see them at restaurants and retailers. LLS sent colorful, high quality coinboards to tug at heartstrings and collect quarters and dollar coins. Filled to capacity, this board’s worth $31. My job: mail LLS a check with the proceeds. Each package cost about $10 to produce and ship to me, leaving a net gain to charity of $21. Considering they sent me two packages,
there’s still a net gain of $11 when my customers hand over all their spare change. The way it’s set up is smart. Customers feel they’ve helped a worthy cause, I don’t have to work hard, LLS gets more money. Everyone wins with this effort, right? The only wrinkle: I work from home and rarely have clients in my office. In fact I’d go so far as to say 99.9% of my business meetings take place in client offices, Starbucks, or other outside locations. LLS should have filtered their list to determine I’m not a retail operation. They could have easily determined my address is in a residential neighborhood. Or that my business doesn’t fit their criteria for many reasons (too few employees, for example). And why didn’t someone purge out the duplicate name from the mailing list? Now, instead of these two cards being positioned
where they’ll generate $42 for research, they ended up costing $20. I’m certain other non-qualifying businesses were also on the mailing list. The next time you’re sending out a direct mail effort, clean up your mailing list first. Talk to the proper audience, and only hit recipients once. And remember: regardless of your message, graphics, headline, premium, or offer, it’s a costly mistake to talk to the wrong people. Be respectful of your readers and show you’ve done your homework. Because no matter how good your quality or price, you can’t sell hairbrushes to bald men. With that said, I wish you a week of cost-effective marketing. Happy new year from the entire team at www.askmrmarketing.com.
