Myra Stickney, Ramona Senior Center part-time bookkeeper, and Pete Bakarich, volunteer and president of the board that oversees the center, review the budget with Ray Cardona, center director.
Seniors face $63,000 deficit By MAUREEN ROBERTSON Unless something changes, Ramona Senior Center will shut its doors in four years — or sooner. Operating approximately $63,000 in the red this year, the senior center is keeping its doors open with proceeds from the sale of a home — but that won’t last forever, says Pete Bakarich, president of the Pacific Educational Foundation Board that oversees operation of the center at 434 Aqua Lane. Among factors contributing to the dilemma: a 25 percent cut in funding in 2010, another 21 percent cut during the federal budget sequestration this
year, and rising costs for food, dairy and transportation, said Ray Cardona, the center’s director for the past 11 years. A look at the center’s 2013-14 budget shows expenditures of $302.812. Of that, $159,682 is for personnel, $85,755 for food, $20,000 for transportation and $35,532 for other costs such as rent, kitchen supplies, insurance and utilities. The center anticipates spending $1,125 for consulting/ contracted services and $718 for travel and training. The revenue column shows See SENIOR CENTER page 16
Factors combine to create need for more donations By MAUREEN ROBERTSON Cuts in food stamps and other aid, combined with rising food prices, are creating an increased need at Ramona Food and Clothes Closet, a grassroots organization that’s been helping those in need in Ramona and the backcountry for the past 30 years. “We gave out a record number of food bags in the last month,” DeeAnn Anderson, service manager and volunteer coordinator for the nonprofit headquartered in the Thrift Store at 773 Main St., said on Friday. The increase in need comes as the nonprofit

Ramona man accused of attempting to murder police officer A Ramona man was in jail this week, suspected of attempted murder after shots allegedly were fired when a police officer attempted to pull over the vehicle in which he and another man were traveling, according to authorities. The events that led to the arrests of Michael Rains, 28, of Ramona, and Daniel Schwartzel, 18, who claimed to be a transient, began shortly before 8 p.m. Saturday, according to sheriff’s officials. A San Diego police officer attempted to pull over the vehicle Schwartzel was driving in the vicinity of Espola and Poway roads because he suspected him of drunken driving, then heard what he thought was a gunshot shortly after turning on his patrol vehicle’s emergency lights, sheriff’s Sgt. Chad Boudreau said. A few seconds later, the officer heard three more gunshots and saw a muzzle flash that appeared to have come from the pas-
senger side of the vehicle, Boudreau said. The officer was not injured. The officer then notified police officials, and deputies from the Poway Sheriff’s Station went to assist him, according to
the sergeant. The suspects’ vehicle was stopped near the intersection of Poway Road and Welton Lane when the deputies arrived and removed the two men from inside, Boudreau said. A handgun was found
Halloween visitor seeks trial on charge of failing to register as sex offender By NEAL PUTNAM A sex offender who gave out Halloween treats to children in Ramona waived having a preliminary hearing and agreed Nov. 15 to stand trial on a felony charge of failing to register as a sex offender with the San Diego sheriff’s department. The attorney for Danny Emmett Shaw II, 29, and Shaw decided to forgo having the Nov. 19 preliminary hearing. He appeared before El Cajon Superior Court Judge Charles Ervin, who set a trial date for Dec. 30. Shaw, of Yucca Valley, was visiting family members in Ramona on Halloween when he was seen giving candy to children at the annual Main Street Trick or Treat event sponsored by the Ramona Chamber of Commerce. Deputy District Attorney Derek Grilz said Shaw should have registered with sheriff’s deputies in Ramona even though
he was only visiting. Grilz said Shaw comes to Ramona somewhat frequently and the law requires he register in an area that he regularly resides or visits. Shaw was convicted of a sex charge involving a 13-year-old girl in Oregon in 2003 when he was 19 years old. In 2005, he was convicted in San Diego County of failing to register as a sex offender, said Grilz. Shaw was dressed as a zombie at the event and some parents told sheriff’s deputies he was acting suspicious to them. His costume included white face paint with red stripes to resemble blood. Shaw has pleaded not guilty. Grilz said Shaw’s case will be assigned to a courtroom for trial on Dec. 30, but jury selection would not start until after Jan. 2. He remains in the South Bay Detention Facility on $100,000 bail. If convicted, he could be sentenced to six years in prison.

Shovel-wielding suspect pleads guilty By NEAL PUTNAM A man who surrendered to sheriff’s deputies after damaging cars with a shovel and then hiding in an attic has pleaded guilty to felony assault and resisting an executive officer. Daniel Michael Ponce, 24, of Ramona, will be sentenced Jan. 6 in El Cajon Superior Court. He is free on $30,000 bond. Charges of vandalism to the cars and a second assault charge were dropped Oct. 30 after he pleaded guilty to the remaining charges. He faces a maximum sentence of four years and eight months in prison, according to court records. He could also be placed on probation with a restitution order.
His mother wrote a letter to the judge, saying he was drunk at the time. She wrote that her son recalled little about the incident, but he did have a serious leg injury that day. Medical records submitted to the court show that he was being treated for pain in his leg. The incident on Sept. 27 began around 3:30 p.m. with a call to deputies about a man wielding a shovel and damaging vehicles at Raymond Avenue and Ramona Street. Ponce fled the scene and holed up in an attic in the 600 block of 16th Street. A police dog was sent into the attic and Ponce surrendered after the dog bit him several times.

Grant funding aids water district with projects By KAREN BRAINARD By receiving grant funding, Ramona Municipal Water District hopes to implement a project at the San Vicente wastewater treatment plant that would increase the amount of recycled water produced and decrease the cost of brine hauling. Brine is the reject water produced after recycled
water goes through the reverse osmosis treatment at the San Vicente plant. The treatment meets salt restrictions associated with the Gower Groundwater Basin Plan. Because the brine contains concentrated salts that make disposal difficult, especially since the district has no direct access to an ocean outfall system, it is hauled down the hill to water rec-
lamation plants. The budgeted amount for brine hauling this fiscal year is $380,000. Through the Metropolitan Water District’s Foundational Actions Funding program for studies or pilot projects related to recycled water, RMWD applied for a $75,000 grant and recently learned it will receive the award. The water board gave its ap-
proval Nov. 12 for General Manager David Barnum to negotiate, review and approve the final funding contract for the grant. The project would add a third reverse osmosis system and is estimated to cost $200,000, including the $75,000 grant. According to the district, the project could save a third of the brine hauling cost or about $100,000 a year, and an upgraded system
could eliminate the need for an additional brine pond at the plant. “I think this is a great project. Knowing what we know now, I think even if we didn’t get the grant money, we’d do it,” said Barnum. The board also adopted its Salt and Nutrient Management plan, required by the state, at its Nov. 12 meeting. The plan, prepared by Todd Engineers
of Alameda, cost $88,000 but $40,000 of that will be covered by a grant through the San Diego County Water Authority. Director Kit Kesinger was absent from the meeting. The board, which normally meets the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month, will not be meeting again in November. The next meeting will be Dec. 10 at 2 p.m., Ramona Community Center.

Town Hall returns to Wild West for Intermountain fundraiser By REGINA ELLING As an estimated 100 people gathered in Ramona Town Hall on Nov. 16, mass murder and mayhem erupted in the back courtyard of the building. The body count just added to the fun of the fundraising event for the Intermountain Fire and Rescue Department. The evening's theme, “Party Like It’s 1899 in the Wild Wild West,” gave guests room to be creative.
Lynn Oliver dresses for the occasion.
The majority dressed in western, Victorian or steam punk gear, and the historic Town Hall on Main Street appeared to fall back in time. The decorations and even the food carried out the theme. The Hole in the Wall Gang from Lakeside provided the courtyard murder play, complete with authentic-sounding gunfire. Dinner, live music, a live auction and a silent auction with a wide array of prizes completed the evening. “It’s amazing, as always,” said Jeremy Christofferson, chief of Intermountain. Looking around at the wall-to-wall guests, he continued, “For us, this is why we’re here. This community is what motivates us to get up every day and continue to serve. It’s a pleasure for us to have the support of such wonderful people.” He also praised the resources and skills of the Hot Spots, the department's auxiliary that staged the event.
“It’s a blessing to have such dedicated, intelligent and resourceful supports for our department,” said Christofferson. “We wouldn’t be able to exist without their help.” Intermountain Fire and
Rescue, a 100-percent volunteer fire department, is at 25858-A Highway 78 in Ramona. The station covers a 125-mile area bordering Ramona, Julian, Lake Henshaw and Palomar Mountain.

Father convicted of abusing child faces murder charge
Photo/Dr. Gary B. Myers, OD
Ramona Optometrist Dr. Gary B. Myers captures the colors created by the setting sun from his vantage point in Old Town Ramona last Tuesday.
By NEAL PUTNAM A father convicted of child abuse that caused severe disabilities to his 6-week-old son in 2005 has been charged with murder after the Ramona boy died. San Diego Superior Court Judge Joan Weber set a preliminary hearing for Billy Joe Stringfield II, 30, for Feb. 28. Stringfield, who lives in Texas, remains free on his own recognizance. A jury found Stringfield guilty of misdemeanor child abuse in December 2005. He and his wife gave the child up for adoption. Ramona resident Christine Dahlke adopted the boy and named him Samuel Dahlke. Stringfield apparently shook or injured the boy
so severely that he could not walk, speak, hear or eat without a feeding tube, according to court records. Because he could not swallow, he drank liquid through a tube to his stomach. Dahlke found the boy dead on Nov. 29, 2011, in her Ramona home. Court records say a neuropathologist and a radiologist determined the cause
of death was from the 2005 injuries. Though Stringfield was prosecuted for abuse in 2005, it is not considered double jeopardy because the charge is now murder. The district attorney’s office also has filed a charge of involuntary manslaughter and assault upon a child that results in death. Stringfield has pleaded not guilty.

On display through Dec. 29 will be Kelly’s contemporary still life, cloudscape and landscape paintings. In the past eight years, Kelly’s work at the easel has taken her in the direction of still life painting. Previously she was best known for painting plein air landscapes. Still life painting usually is done indoors with a subject that does not move or vary. Kelly calls her style of painting “classical method — modern mind” and said she enjoys working on a piece in a slow, thoughtful manner, using a deliberate process. “The tradition of painting and the craftsmanship of being a painter are important to me,” she said. “To be done well, still life painting requires tremendous technical skill, yet it can also be very intellectual. This enables a dialogue about life and art that invites us to contemplate — to go deeper.
Her show in Santa Ysabel takes its name from the time of year when days are shorter and darker. “Solstice-Solace is about the kind of energy that we seek at this time of year to sustain us,” reads an announcement about the show. The show includes paintings of small bird’s nests, cloudscapes and landscapes, pears, spoons, smaller flower paintings, and three large rose paintings, contemporary paintings of single roses bisected by geometric lines. Kelly teaches painting at the Athenaeum School of Arts and privately. She holds a bachelor’s degree in visual arts from University of California San Diego and was the subject of a major article in American Artist magazine. Gallery hours are Thursdays through Mondays, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and by appointment. For more information, call 760-7651676.

Citizen’s group targets teen issues By KAREN BRAINARD How to reach teenagers and their parents and relay warnings and preventive advice about such social concerns as drug use, drinking, and sexting was pondered by those attending the Ramona Sheriff’s Substation Citizen’s Advisory Group meeting. This was the fourth meeting of the group, led
by Lt. James Bovet. Although five residents serve as members, only three attended, along with a high school parent and Crime Prevention Specialist Barbara Wallace. One of the topics that parents and teens need to be aware of is the social host ordinance, Wallace said at the Nov. 14 meeting. The ordinance assigns responsibility to those

Anyone allowing minors, under age 21, to drink alcohol on their property could be cited or arrested, fined $1,000 or more, and could serve up to six months in jail. Sexting, the term used to describe teens taking and sending sexually suggestive photos of themselves
and others with their smartphones, has been in the news recently as the San Diego Police Department is investigating sexting incidents at area high schools. Advisory group member and Ramona Unified School Board Trustee Kim Lasley said a lot of parents are not aware of sexting. Because the photos can spread throughout a school via smartphones and even end up on the Internet, reputations can be damaged and minors,
under age 18, who take or send photos could be committing a crime, according to law enforcement. Other information the group would like to distribute is where to find help when a child approaches his parents and says he has a problem with drugs. The services are out there but many parents may not be aware of them, advisory group members said. To get the messages and information out to the public, Wallace suggested

using social media, saying it is a communications tool that can reach a lot of people. The group also discussed working with Ramona Unified School District. Graffiti and the recent arrests of three 19-yearold Ramona males in the tagging group Making Art Daily (MAD) was mentioned. Bovet said some minors also were involved and those caught tagging will have to pay for the damages.

Should Ramona Unified close a school? By BOB GRAEFF Ramona Unified School District Superintendent (This is the third in a series about fiscal issues related to the Ramona Unified School District. The first appeared in the Oct. 31 issue of the Sentinel and the second in the Nov. 14 issue. They also are on the Sentinel website, www. ramonasentinel.com.)
F
ollowing a board action last spring, the school district has received a much-anticipated comprehensive study from a highly regarded property consultant detailing the income potential of five specific district-owned properties. That report is posted on the district website for all to see and was presented to the board earlier this week. Although it will be the board’s responsibility over the next few months to determine “next steps,” here is what the report says: The “40 acres” of vacant land just north of Ramona High is thought to be the most valuable income property for the district. Although this property contains more than 17 acres of vernal pools and wetlands, the property as a whole has potential value for the construction of residences and for environmental mitigation. In the current market, the property is estimated to be in the range of $2.2 to $3.2 million. The Old Ramona Community School site (located on Montecito Road) has very little resale value for a variety of reasons unique to the site. But it does have value in terms of leasing the property. A portion of the facility is currently leased to the North Inland Special Education Region Special Education Local Plan Area (NISER SELPA) while another potential tenant has recently expressed interest with the District, as well. Behind Hanson Elementary School are 32 acres of raw land south of the campus. According to the study, this land could be subdivided and marketed for residential construction and has a potential value of $786,000 to the district. The vacant property in the San Diego Country Estates located on Bellemore Street consists of five undeveloped acres. Although this property may have use to the district for FFA or other school purposes, it has very little commercial value at the present time. Finally, the study reviewed the potential value of the five square blocks of property stretching along Ninth Street from Ramona Elementary to the Pop Warner football field, including the District Office, Montecito High School, Head Start, and the bus yard. In detailed fashion, the study values this entire property potentially at $1.5 million — but cites the very real challenges of transporting the current student population at RE to other schools and the additional costs of relocating the large amount of administrative services to another location. The study estimates the one-time cost of purchasing additional school buses for the displaced RE students at $700,000 and the annual cost of operating the buses at $350,000. Although no estimates are provided to relocate the current administrative services, the bus yard, and Montecito High to other locations, the author of the study concludes that “these costs would offset the projected savings in closing or repurposing” the RE site. In other words, a closure of our oldest school site at this time is not recommended. The board’s highest priority this year is to improve both short-term and long-term fiscal health. With this study in hand, the recent experience of running a bond campaign, the preview of the next state budget this January, and significant long-term debt, the board is now equipped to take decisive steps to improve the district’s financial position. Public input is always welcome!

Business News East Main merchants to mark Black Friday By JESSICA KING For the second year, small businesses on East Main Street will offer deep discounts the day after Thanksgiving as part of the proverbial retail holiday, Black Friday. “You could go down the
hill and you could fight everyone for parking and you could spend money on a bunch of cheap import stuff that’s not going to last,” said Stacy Bart of Unicorn Books and Gifts. “Or you could sleep in the day after Thanksgiving and come here and get some
really neat, unique stuff.” Bart organized the second annual East Main Street Sidewalk Sale and will be offering merchandise from 20 to 50 percent off during the event, which kicks off at 8 a.m. Nov. 29. About a dozen other merchants will be offering discounts on everything from beauty supplies and fashion to antique home décor and gardening supplies. Each of the participating merchants will set up tables outside their storefronts with special deals, and most, if not all, are ex-
pected to offer more bargains inside. “We’re not just talking about a little markdown,” said Bart. “We’ve all agreed to make it worth it.” Other participating merchants include Adorn Boutique, Affordable Treasures, Joyous Soul Yoga, Pacifica Spa Studio, Packard’s Coffee Shop, The Mason Jar, Ramona Family Naturals, Ramona Hydroponics and Organic Gardening Supplies, Ramona Tan and Spa, Squash Blossom Trading Co. and Sun Valley Florist.

Sgt. Joe Ellis said the financial crimes unit of the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department believes Malware or a virus on a business computer likely allowed credit or debit card information to be stolen in the rash of credit and debit card fraud that occurred in Ramona in the spring. The sheriff’s Ramona
station received approximately 40 cases of credit and debit card fraud in early May, but some residents believed at least 100 cardholders were affected. The department recommends that residents report credit or debit card fraud to law enforcement at 858-565-5200 and to their financial institution.

Rotarians present third-graders with new dictionaries For the 12th consecutive year, Ramona Rotarians visited third-grade classrooms with a gift for each student — a dictionary. The number of dictionaries varies each year, depending on how many third-graders are enrolled in Ramona schools. This year, about 420 English dictionaries were presented to students, with approximately 120 Spanish-speaking students also receiving Spanish dictionaries, said Amber Ramirez, Ramona Rotary president.
“I Choose Quality.”
Each year Rotary clubs participating in the Dictionary Project have donated English dictionaries to thirdgraders in their community. In Ramona, students whose second language is Spanish also have received a Spanish to English dictionary. Additional dictionaries are left with the district to give third-graders who may enter the district later in the school year. Cost to Ramona Rotary was approximately $956.45. Deliveries took place from Tuesday through Friday mornings last week, w i t h Ramona R o t a ri a n s averaging two

schools a day. Dictionaries went to the six elementary schools in Ramona Unified School District and to Ramona Lutheran School. A Georgia woman started the Dictionary Project in 1992, when she gave 50 dictionaries to children attending a school near her Savannah home. The idea grew and organizations such as Rotary refined them. The dictionaries belong to the students, and Ramona Rotary encourages the students to use the reference book throughout their school career. Since many homes do not have a dictionary, students may keep the book in their backpack and use it at home and in the classroom. Third-graders are learning word and dictionary skills, a reason Rotary selected that class. Ramona Rotary Club holds luncheon meetings in Ramona Valley Grill at noon on Tuesdays.
Ramona Rotary President Amber Ramirez, with Rotarians Pete Schiff and Kim Lasley and guest Karla Pinderton, hand dictionaries to third-graders at Hanson Elementary School last Tuesday.

Canada de San Vicente is on my radar
C
alifornia Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has partnered with California State Parks regarding a huge land holding in Ramona. In 2007, California Fish and Wildlife purchased Monte Vista Ranch, which it calls Canada de San Vicente, a nearly 5,000-acre parcel that adjoins Barnett Ranch off San Vicente Road. This property near the San Diego Country Estates is a major connector for the Ramona Trails Plan, the San Diego County Trails Plan, the Trans County Trail and a wonderful wildlife corridor. Trail advocates gasped when we learned the then California Fish and Game
came into possession of this vital piece of property. The history of the department was to purchase land, fence it and close it to the public, which it immediately did in this case. Trail users for years before 2007 used to ride and hike on this property and the Barnett Ranch property as if they were one, and many thought they were one and, unaware, moved the fencing a couple of times between the two properties along the trail. CDFW immediately mended the fences each time and word finally got out that the well-known, used and loved Monte Vista Ranch was closed to the public.
Outrage within the trail community lit up the Internet and action was demanded. Trail advocates met with CDFW to no avail and were even told, “We don’t do trails.” Trail advocates have found it odd and unacceptable that the department will allow hunting on some of the properties it purchases and manages with our tax dollars, but won’t allow passive recreation. It has never made much sense. We all know that Ramona is a trail community with a huge equestrian and hiking presence, and we want the Canada de San Vicente property available. On Oct. 29, CDFW and State Parks held a public meeting at Olive Peirce Middle School to gather public input regarding this piece of property. More people showed up than they anticipated, they ran out of materials and seats and, although they tried to keep the meeting short and not answer any ques-

partner with the public, at least in my experience. While abiding by constraints in areas — legally, geographically, biologically or historically — the department has been willing to listen, to get input from the public and to do the best it can to accommodate the desire of the public. The parks department has been much more open about how and why it operates the way it does and having them as a partner with California Department of Fish and Wildlife brings new hope to trail and outdoor advocates regarding the Canada de San Vicente land. My skepticism remains regarding public access to Monte Vista Ranch, or Canada de San Vicente, but this rich in history — 195 years to be precise — vital, nearly 5,000 acres is on my radar and will be for trail advocates now and in the future, regardless of what CDFW decides to do with it now. Stay tuned…. Karen Carlson is a Ramona resident.

Ramona Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3783 Commander Doug Scholl presents a certificate of appreciation to Fire Apparatus Engineer/Paramedic Shawn Warcup of Cal Fire/Ramona Fire Department. The VFW honored Warcup for his actions on June 26, 2013, during a structure fire with an explosion on Ashley Road. Lifetime VFW member Carroll Harris suffered burns as a result of the fire that evening. Warcup acted quickly in treating and preparing Mr. Harris for air transport to the burn center. Although Mr. Harris eventually died of his injuries, the Ramona VFW Post recognized what it called Warcup’s undaunted efforts by donating $300 to the San Diego Burn Institute in honor of Mr. Harris.

Those committing the burglaries are often addicted to narcotics and steal to support their habit, said the lieutenant. “It’s just a vicious circle,” he said. Bovet added that he does not think there is a lack of services to help those addicted but there is a lack of will and family support. Total property crimes — burglary, theft, and auto g

Dante Cosentino to launch ‘Pride and Memory’ at book signing Retired Ramona High teacher Dante Cosentino has lived the quintessential American experience, seeing and partaking in some of the most pivotal moments of the nation’s history and living through some of its most crucial periods. His book, “Pride and Memory,” is a memoir that tells the true story of the son of a poor immigrant family growing up in one of the wealthiest towns in the United States and embarking on a quest for identity and a shot at the American Dream. He will sign copies of his book at Unicorn Books and Gifts, 738
Main St., on S a t u r d a y, Nov. 23, at 3 p.m. W h i l e driving across the U n i t e d States with his 16-yearold son some years ago, CosenDANTE COSENTINO tino told his son stories of his life experiences. One was about participating in the Martin Luther King Jr. March the day af-
ter King’s assassination, a tense event where the demonstrators were surrounded by military forces. Cosentino’s son made him realize how little his own son knew about him, and that his experiences must be recollected and shared for not only posterity’s sake, but also to develop a better appreciation for America’s past. “Pride and Memory” traces Cosentino’s life through some of the most important events in recent American history. Seen through the lens of the son of immigrants — and spanning more
than three quarters of a century, taking place across the nation as well as Europe — it shows the defects and possibilities of the American Dream. A Ramona resident since 1976, Cosentino taught at Ramona High School for 20 years before serving on the Ramona school board. Cosentino was born in Greenwich, Conn., to Italian immigrant parents. He worked many jobs, from drill press operator to college professor, and served in the U.S. Air Force during the Korean War. He studied at Wayne State University, the New School for
Social Research, Hunter College, San Francisco State University, San Diego State University and the University of California Santa Barbara, receiving his bachelor’s degree from San Francisco State and earning four master’s degrees. He finished all the course work for a doctorate in philosophy at UCSB. Cosentino’s work has been published in poetry magazines, and his essay on self deception was published in a professional philosophy journal. “For me, it’s lifelong learning,” he says. “I’m a believer in lifelong learning.”

$164,247 from the county’s Aging and Independence Services, $51,642 from program income, $23,535 from other sources — and $63,388 in subsidy, money from the sale of the late Ann Lowry’s house. Lowry, a Ramona senior who died in 2005, had no relatives and left her home to the senior center, said Cardona. It sold for $335,000. “We’d be gone if she hadn’t done that,” he said. The center started feeling the financial pinch about 18 months ago, said Cardona. Food that cost $5,500 to $5,600 a month five years ago now averages $9,000 a month. Dairy used to cost $450 to $500 a month. Now it’s $900 a month, he said. Bakarich, a PEF Board member the past three years, is focusing on fundraisers as one way to boost the budget. He’s helped oversee the growth of the center’s annual Rib Fest, which raised about $800 the first year and last year, its eighth, netted $16,000.

Nine are part-time and include a bookkeeper, head cook, prep cook, dishwasher, bus driver and four

ith so many exercise options, diet plans and fitness fads available to you, it can be confusing which route to take. From infomercials touting rock hard abs in just three minutes a day to CrossFit and Latin dance cardio like Zumba, or the traditional gym workout — the options are endless. What works, what’s safe, and what’s effective? The answer is what’s the goal, and it depends. Rather than cast my opinion on any of the aforemen-
eat until your pants need to be unbuttoned! Given that weight loss goal, when you eat less than you burn, you lose weight. I think we’ve gotten distracted with marketing and gimmicks and quick fixes that we have lost our way. Don’t seek out the latest fad program or diet. Use common sense when it comes to both eating and moving. Move more, eat better, live healthier. The great news is that we have a variety of options. The bad news is — we have a variety of options.

tioned modes of movement, I’d like to give you a formula for fitness success that always has and always will work. MOVE MORE + EAT BETTER = HEALTHIER YOU! Move More Movement is key to life. Lift stuff up and put it down, move quick enough to get the heart pumping, move to stretch the muscles, move in all directions, slow your movement down at times to slow down your mind and meditate on life. If weight loss is a goal, the more you move the more you burn! Eat Better Diet this, no carb that, cabbage soup and medically supervised fasting. Huh? Where along the lines of our human history did we forget how to eat and what to eat? Eat from a variety of food groups, plenty of vegetables, fruits are good, quality meats, easy on the super sweet and super salty. Yes, you need some carbohydrates, but unless you’re getting ready to run a marathon, that 300 gram carb starch fest before bed is not necessary. Oh, yeah, don’t

the Bulldogs get a home game. The game will kick off at 7 p.m. at the Dawg Pound. There is no junior varsity game. The Mount travels well so an early arrival is advised. Mt. Carmel advanced to the quarterfinals by beating Westview 26-14 in the opening round of the play-

Water Dawgs beat LCC in playoffs, lose to Scripps Ranch By JOE NAIMAN After winning its firstround CIF Division II playoff game Nov. 13 against La Costa Canyon, Ramona High School’s boys water polo team lost its quarterfinal game to No. 1-seeded Scripps Ranch High School on Nov. 15. The two playoff matches gave the Bulldogs a final season record of 1514. Ramona’s 4-1 Valley League statistic translated to second place in the final league standings. The CIF playoff selection and seeding meeting Nov. 11 gave Ramona the No. 8 seed in the Division II playoffs. “I felt we could have been seeded higher,” said Coach Donnie Williams.
If the No. 8 seed is successful in the playoff opener, the team plays the No. 1 seed in the second round. Ramona’s success in the playoff opener with a 9-8 final score advanced the Bulldogs to the next round, but the Bulldogs only led for the final 1:46 of the second overtime period and trailed by as many as five goals. The Mavericks scored first, and Ramona scored the next goal. Two subsequent La Costa Canyon goals gave the Mavericks a 3-1 lead after one quarter. In the first 90 seconds of the second period, three additional LCC scores created a 6-1 advantage. Ramona scored the next two goals. A La Costa Can-
yon score with six seconds remaining in the half made the score 7-3 at halftime. Ramona missed a fivemeter penalty shot in the third period, in which neither team scored. Ten seconds into the fourth quarter a Ramona exclusion gave the Mavericks a power play, but Ramona’s defense held off the attack. Two Ramona goals within a 90-second period in the fourth quarter made the score 7-5. The Mavericks scored once again for an 8-5 cushion. A La Costa Canyon exclusion gave the Bulldogs a power play which resulted in Tyler Webb’s goal. Ryan Hall’s goal narrowed the margin to 8-7. Garrett Klem scored with 22 secSee WATER POLO on page 25
Cruz makes all-league team By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School’s girls team took fourth place at the Valley League cross country meet Nov. 16 at Kit Carson Park in Escondido, and sophomore Perla Cruz earned all-league second team
recognition. The Bulldogs had 10 runners at the league meet. “We got some of our injured runners back, which was nice,” said Head Coach Steve Albanese. The first 10 finishers at the league meet receive all-league first team des-

ignation while the next 10 fastest runners are named to the league’s second team. Cruz secured second-team status by finishing 14th in the race on the 2.7-mile course. Her time of 19:00 improved upon her 19:15 performance on the course during the Oct. 31 league cluster meet. On Oct. 31, Elizabeth Schweizer completed the course in 19:54 while on Nov. 16, the senior’s time of 19:15 placed her 21st, one position away from all-league honors. An injury kept Teresa Leon from racing between the Sept. 14 Mustang Invitational and the league meet. Leon’s first race back resulted in a time of 19:48 and 28th place. Chloe Knowd finished 30th at 19:51. Freshman Lucia Hernandez, who improved her time from 21:28 on Oct. 31 to 20:47 on Nov. 8, needed only See GIRLS TEAM on page 27

92065 Assessor’s Parcel No.: 284310-03-00 NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www. qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-13-562793-JP . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.

Pointers end Ramona's volleyball season in playoffs By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School’s girls volleyball season ended Nov. 13 with a three-game loss to Point Loma in the first round of the CIF playoffs. “We came up against quite a formidable team, at least for that night,” said Coach Connie Halfaker. “They played very well. We played well at times. We would have needed our very best on all fronts to compete with them.” The 25-15, 25-14, 2516 loss gave Ramona a final 22-9 season record, including a 7-3 Valley League mark worth third place in the final league standings. Mission Vista’s 8-2 record gave the Timberwolves second in the league standings, and one of those losses was to Ramona on Nov. 6. “We played very well and we forced a lot of errors,” Halfaker said. “We were able to keep them out of system.” The match at Ramona involved 25-21, 25-22, and 25-18 games. The re-

sult countered a four-game loss Oct. 4 at Mission Vista. Nov. 6 was also Senior Night for Ramona. “Our seniors played very well,” Halfaker said. Ramona’s 2013 seniors were Christina Barrameda, Carolyn Buggeln, Callie Guasti, and Makayla Torsak. Robyn Arthur led the Bulldogs with 13 kills against Mission Vista. Guasti added 10 kills. Sammy Shupe and Arthur shared the team lead with
three serving aces. Sydney Hickle had nine digs. Natalie Seol recorded three blocks. Shupe distributed the ball for 27 assists. The Bulldogs’ league season and regular season concluded Nov. 7 with a 25-12, 25-5, 25-19 triumph at Orange Glen. Torsak had 10 aces against the Patriots. Guasti had six kills against Orange Glen with Arthur contributing five kills. Hickle recorded six digs. Shupe led the team with 20 assists and two blocks. The Nov. 9 CIF playoff selection and seeding meeting gave Ramona the No. 12 seed in the Division I playoffs and thus a road game at No. 5 Point Loma. Ramona had not previously seen the Pointers play. “The information we were given was not quite reflective of the team that was playing against us,” Halfaker said. “They have that tendency to go up and down a little bit, but they were definitely up against us.” On three occasions the
Bulldogs staved off match point before finally concluding their season. “They did not ever lay down and die. They fought every step of the way,” Halfaker said of her players. “We made them earn their points.” Guasti’s final high school match included seven kills and two blocks. Hickle had 12 digs against the Pointers. Arthur recorded six kills. Shupe had 14 assists and an ace. “I’m very, very pleased with the team, proud of them,” Halfaker said. g

During the second overtime period a shot by Jesse Reiling into the net was nullified by the referee.

Hall had four assists with Reiling, Klem, and Vinnie Talento each providing an assist. Talento also had a field block. Klem led the team with six steals, Vermeulen added four steals, and two
steals apiece were recorded by Reiling, Hall, and goalie Taylor Holas. Spencer Schwegler also had a steal. Holas had 10 saves while Jack Sundberg, who played the second period, made two saves. In the game against Scripps Ranch, the Falcons led 6-2 after one quarter. The score was 12-2 at halftime, 15-5 after three periods, and 17-6 when the final buzzer sounded.

football team that was selected and announced last week. Fifteen Bulldogs made the squad — the most ever to be so honored on an all-league squad. Travis Kerchner was the unanimous choice as The Palomar League Defensive Player of the Year. The senior linebacker did it all. He led the league in tackles with 79 solo tackles and 40 assisted tackles. He led the league in tackles for losses with 17. He made two interceptions. He had seven sacks and 12 hurries. He recovered a fumble and caused eight fumbles. Tyler Vargas was chosen the Palomar League Kicker of the Year. Vargas was a perfect 33 for 33 in Point After Touchdown conversions and he converted seven of nine field goal attempts. His longest is a school-record 50 yards. His last field goal clinched the game in the Palomar League showdown with Torrey Pines. He scored 54 points. Five Dawgs were se-
lected to the first team on offense. Senior Michael Hoover made the squad as an offensive lineman. His leadership and blocking helped Ramona dominate the line of scrimmage in every Palomar League game. Hoover also played defense and recorded five tackles and had one hurry. Senior Tanner Williams made the team as a wide receiver. Williams had 27 receptions for 371 yards. Sophomore quarterback Marco Cobian was the first team signal caller. Cobian completed 90 passes in 147 attempts for 1,211 yards and six touchdown passes. Junior Raul Briseno also made the team as an offensive lineman. He helped pave the way for two running backs and a quarterback to make the allleague team. A two-way starter, he made 40 tackles and had seven tackles for losses and one sack. Senior Brandon Gansch was selected as a first team running back. Gansch
rushed for 712 yards on 132 carries and 10 touchdowns. Gansch also did a good job of pass blocking, allowing Cobian time to pass. Senior Nathan Cherek was selected to the second team as a running back. He led the league with 817 yards on 117 carries and scored 11 touchdowns. Cherek also had 156 receiving yards on seven catches and two touchdown grabs. He had the longest reception of the year — a 64-yard strike from Cobian. Coach Stephon Pace’s defense was well represented on the All Palomar League Team. Besides Kerchner receiving Defensive Player of the Year, the Dawgs landed four other defenders on the All Palomar first team. Senior Garrett Dart was selected as a defensive back. Dart had 30 tackles, two interceptions and deflected five passes. He also made his presence felt on special teams. Junior Garrett Binkley made the team as a defensive back. He led the Palo-
CIF quarterfinal game Ramona High Bulldogs vs. Mt. Carmel Sundevils Thursday, Nov. 21 Kickoff: 7 p.m. Bulldog Stadium, Ramona High School, San Vicente Road and Hanson Lane Tickets: Adults, $9; students and seniors: $6 mar League with seven interceptions and eight pass deflections. He made 28 tackles and had one tackle for a loss. Senior Tanner “T-Bone” Williams made the squad as a defensive lineman but he was the most versatile football player on the team. On defense T-Bone Williams had 56 tackles and eight tackles for losses. He sacked the quarterback four times and had three hurries. He returned an interception for 20 yards. On offense he played tight end and fullback. He had
198 yards rushing and two rushing touchdowns. He had four receptions for 40 yards and a touchdown. His strongest asset on offense was his blocking. He cleared the way and made the holes. Senior Patrick Hastings was a two-way starter who was named to the All Palomar team as a defensive lineman. He made 39 tackles and had 10 tackles for losses. He also recorded four sacks and had six hurries. Four Bulldogs received Honorable Mention on the 2013 Palomar League team. Matt Lawler was selected as a tight end. He had 10 catches for 104 yards and a touchdown. Trae Rodriguez made the squad as an offensive lineman. Rodriguez played center and made the blocking adjustment calls at the line of scrimmage. He also snapped the ball for the PAT conversion attempts and field goals. Senior Keyanis Crichlow made the team as a wide receiver and a defensive back. He had six tackles

James Meskell finished ahead of the Patriots’ sixth finisher. Orange Glen rested top runner Andrew Tellames with an injury that day. In the Nov. 16 race Ramona edged Orange Glen for third place by 1 point. Tellames not only ran but won the race. “That shows how much our boys stepped up,” Albanese said. “This time we beat them with their No. 1 runner.” The top three teams in each division at the CIF section meet qualify for the CIF state meet. Prior to the league meet Albanese felt that qualifying for the state meet would be a longshot for the Bulldogs. “Now I think we have a very strong chance if we continue to improve,” he said.

Tennis
onship run was one of the most exciting and moving experiences I have had in coaching. Jessica had one of the most dominant runs of any girls high school tennis player in San Diego. The coolest thing about Jessica is that she has an incredibly sweet personality, responds to coaching and takes it to another level, and dominates and battles on every point of the match. It was great to see Jessica take the pictures at the end with her mom and dad, three San Diego CIF tennis champions together — the way it should be, said McCormick after Failla won the championship. Her dad, Greg, won the

only individual championship in tennis at RHS in 1985, and her mom, Katrina, won the female individual crown in 1984. However, the RHS junior didn’t feel any pressure to keep up the family tradition. “They both just told me to go out and play my game and that is what I did,” she said. Failla admitted to being a little superstitious, saying, “I ate at Quiznos before the first day of the tournament and I played well so I ate there all three days. Same food and same drinks. It worked.” She said the most rewarding aspect of playing tennis at Ramona
High this year was “Winning. Being able to help the team win the Valley League championship was very rewarding.” McCormick had praise for his players after the CIF tournament: “Caroline Lopresti and Megan Douglass fought hard in their matches and should be commended for their excellent performances and seasons. Lauren Dunker and Rebecca Vaca dominated their first two opponents and battled tough against a No. 8-seeded Torrey Pines team that went all the way to the semifinals. Cassidy Owens and Danielle Vizcarra trounced their first round opponent and played their
best tennis of the season in winning an incredibly tough second round match against a very good team from Point Loma. Owens and Vizcarra continued their great run into their match against the No. 3 seeds and were tied at 2-2 and almost got to 3-3 before the highly-ranked Popa/Ross pulled away. Dunker, Vaca, Owens and Vizcarra made history by going farther than any Lady Bulldog doubles teams have.” The coach also had many to thank. “I want to thank Carye Dunker our team mom; Kim Owens, banquet chairwoman; all of the parents who helped drive the girls to matches; Damon Baldwin, the best athletic
director a coach could want; the Ramona Sentinel for the awesome coverage; and all of the friends and family members who came out to support our girls. This has been the most awesome girls team I have ever coached and I will never forget what this team accomplished and how hard they worked to make it happen.” Failla expressed her gratitude to "all of the people who supported me at the CIF tournament: my parents and grandparents, and all of the people who came out to support me. I have been blessed and I thank God for that.” The high school junior has committed to play tennis for the University of Southern California.
