Crime down in Ramona
County crimes up 4 percent BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON While the county experienced an uptick in crime the first half of this year, the overall crime rate in Ramona dropped 24 percent compared with the first half of 2015, San Diego Association of Governments’ mid-year report shows. A jump in homicides, auto thefts and burglaries between January and June led in part to a 4 percent increase in San Diego County's crime rate compared with the same period in 2015, according to the report released last Wednesday. Property crime dropped 25 percent in Ramona compared with the first half of last year and 73 percent since 2012. Property crime includes burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft. Overall crime includes homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assault as well as property crime. Lt. Jerry Hartman at the sheriff’s Ramona station attributes the drop in crime to several factors. Among them are proactive policing, community assistance and “a little luck,” he said. “We have a proactive approach to policing, meaning we are visible and place ourselves in the right locations at the right time to deter and prevent the next crime from occurring,” Hartman said in an email. “This is accomplished through Information Led Policing where we work with our crime and intelligence analysts on areas of concern and by targeting our repeat offenders. “By targeting right offenders, we are able to keep our SEE CRIME, A21

Chad Waldhauser leads Royal out to his owners after the horse was lost in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park. Riding up the rear is Waldhauser's wife, Cindy Nicholson.
RAMONA COWBOY RIDES TO THE RESCUES BY KAREN BRAINARD If a horse is missing or needs rescuing, Chad Waldhauser is often the man who’s called. The Ramona resident and cowboy has gained a reputation for rescuing horses out of the kindness of his heart. In the past six and a half weeks, he has brought two horses to safety in separate incidents: one involving a lost horse in the Cuyamaca Rancho State Park and the other pulling a horse out of a hole dug by a contractor. On Aug. 7, Royal, a 10-year-old American Quarter Horse, charged off from his owners on Cuyamaca’s Dyar Springs trail after becoming spooked when his saddle slipped underneath him, according to reports. Waldhauser said he learned of the missing horse the next evening and decided to be part of the volunteer search. For six hours on Aug. 9 he and a friend rode around the area where Royal had disappeared. Finally, with no sign of the horse, they went home. But, Waldhauser said, it bugged him all week.
“I knew that horse was within a couple hundred yards,” he said. “I knew he’s right there somewhere.” So, on Saturday, Aug. 13, Waldhauser and his wife, Cindy Nicholson, hit the trail at 6 a.m. Waldhauser stomped around in heavy brush about 150 yards from where Royal took off, but still no horse. They decided to ride to the spring. That’s when a volunteer found Waldhauser and told him a jogger saw the horse. “I rode over the hill and there he was, drinking from the spring,” said Waldhauser. The Ramona cowboy dismounted from his horse about 50 yards away and walked up to Royal, who turned away and walked to Waldhauser’s horse. Royal then let Waldhauser walk up and put a halter on him, and lead him out. Royal had a gash in his right front armpit, said Waldhauser, and looked like he had been hung up in the brush for possibly several days until he could work off his saddle. “Some of that brush is so thick, SEE COWBOY, A2

FROM POT, A1 Option 4 - Increase sensitive land use buffer from 1,000 feet to one mile. Option 6 - Requirement for a major use permit to be obtained prior to siting a medical marijuana collective facility. Option 7- Limit the number of medical marijuana collective facilities per supervisorial district. In addition, the planning group is strongly supporting an amortization clause that would give a collective becoming non-compliant when the new ordinance goes into effect five years to recoup its investment before it has to close. “It gives them five years to get their money back and shut down,” said planning group chair Jim Piva. Ramona has one medical marijuana dispensary, ShowGrow at 736 Montecito Way, that was licensed and operating before the supervisors adopted a temporary moratorium on such facilities in March, directing staff to come up with ordinance revisions. The planning group led the charge for a moratorium after learning Ramona was

Despite the moratorium, two applicants that had approved building permits for 1210 Olive St. and 618 Pine St. are being allowed to proceed with their plans because county counsel determined they had already made a considerable investment. Those voting against the recommendation to support the four options were Paul Stykel, Richard Tomlinson and Dan Scherer. Stykel disagreed with

telling businesses they can open, but then shut them down in five years. "That's not right,” he said. Tomlinson, who questioned whether the county would choose one option or several, said, "I don't think this addresses the problem. I don't like them, any of them.” Scherer asked Jim Cooper, who has extensively researched the medical marijuana issue, which option he saw as most restrictive. Cooper said option 4 was the most
geographically restrictive and option 6 requiring a major use permit “hammers them through the county system.” Cooper noted he is not opposed to medical marijuana “but nationally marijuana is still illegal.” Resident Jan Jensen, who said she lives within 1-1/2 miles of ShowGrow and four other sites proposed for collectives, asked if the planning group is only advisory to the county. Piva said yes, but added, “This planning group has
tremendous influence on the county.” Planner Torry Brean suggested the number of dispensaries be limited by census tract instead of supervisorial district to ensure Ramona would not get the majority. Piva responded that if options 1 and 4 are adopted only one dispensary would be allowed in Ramona because of the restrictions. The Board of Supervisors is expected to vote on the draft ordinance amendments this fall. Also at the meeting, Piva announced that Chris Murray, co-owner of ShowGrow, contacted him and invited the planners to take a tour of the dispensary to get a better understanding of it. Piva said up to seven members could take a tour at one time without violating the Ralph M. Brown Act, California’s open meeting law. Those expressing an interest were Tomlinson, Stykel, Piva, Kristi Mansolf, Rick Terrazas and Frank Lucio. Cooper said he had already toured the business. Absent from the meeting were Eb Hogervorst, Barbara Jensen, Elio Noyas and David Ross.
FROM COWBOY, A1 incredibly thick,” he said, adding that it would be possible to walk by a horse and not know it. About six weeks ago, Waldhauser was called in when an Arabian mare, around 30 years old, fell into a hole measuring two-to-three feet deep and two feet in diameter on property along Old Julian Highway. The horse got her back end stuck and, because of her age, was wearing out quickly, he said. Working with Ramonan Dave Halverson, Waldhauser said, “We just threw a strap around her and pulled her out of the hole.” He explained that he carries equipment, as well as an equine muscle relaxer that he gave the horse. Waldhauser, a horse trainer and a past Ramona Rodeo bareback riding champion, occasionally works with the San Diego Humane Society and offers assistance to others needing help with a large animal rescue. “I do it because I enjoy what I do,” he said. Waldhauser said he can be reached at 760-505-2334 if a horse needs rescuing.

Dunkin pleads guilty to gross vehicular manslaughter BY NEAL PUTNAM A Ramona motorist charged in the death of a Pt. Loma Nazarene University graduate in a fiery crash on state Route 67 pleaded guilty Sept. 2 to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated. Roy Thomas Dunkin, 51, will be sentenced Nov. 4 in the Aug. 20 death of Lucas Makana Riley, 24, of San Diego. He also pleaded guilty to drunk driving, causing injury to three other people. Dunkin faces a maximum term of 13 years and eight months. There is no sentencing agreement with the district attorney’s office, said prosecutor Cally Bright. Bright said Dunkin’s guilty plea was the quickest one entered in any of the drunk driving fatality cases that she has handled. Dunkin entered his guilty plea at his second court appearance after being arraigned on Aug. 24. Usually such cases have a preliminary hearing before any guilty plea is entered. Often a trial is set and the case’s conclusion may be a year after the incident. Dunkin’s attorney could not be reached for comment.
San Diego Superior Court Judge Laura Halgren took Dunkin’s guilty plea and gave no indication as to what his sentence will be. On Saturday, a memorial service was held at Pt. Loma Nazarene University for Riley. A 2014 graduate of the university, he was a sculptor. He was engaged to Shawna Wickwire, a 2013 Pt. Loma university graduate. They were to be married in October. Pt. Loma Nazarene University President Bob Brower issued a statement after Riley’s death, saying “The PLNU community is deeply saddened by this sudden and tragic loss.” Riley helped a PLNU art professor in the installation of a permanent art piece for the County of San Diego in Little Italy. Riley was driving a Mini Cooper that was struck by Dunkin’s Chevrolet pickup truck, which clipped a Buick sedan in front of the Mini Cooper before striking Riley’s vehicle head-on. Riley’s car burst into flames and he died in his vehicle. Dunkin broke his wrist in the crash. Halgren changed his $2 million bail figure to no bail, and he remains in jail.
Ramona man pleads guilty in road rage incident BY NEAL PUTNAM A Ramona man who was arrested after striking another motorist in a road rage incident pleaded guilty to three misdemeanor charges and was immediately sentenced to undergo anger management treatment. Mark Dwayne Gordon, 52, pleaded guilty last Tuesday to assault with his vehicle, battery, and vandalism when he broke the other motorist’s cell phone. El Cajon Superior Court Judge Daniel Goldstein sentenced Gordon to 30 days of public work service under terms of three years probation. Gordon must abstain from alcohol for one year as a probation condition. Goldstein ordered him to pay $442.91 to Alexander Stone, the victim, for breaking his cellphone during the July 9 incident on Rangeland Road near Ramona Airport. Gordon received credit for one day spent in jail, and no additional time in custody was ordered or
requested by Deputy District Attorney Valerie Ryan. “This is the right result for the case,” said Ryan. Goldstein set a sentence review for Feb. 27, 2017, to see if Gordon has done his anger management counseling and public service work. He remains free on $30,000 bond. Stone was using his cellphone to take a video, and Gordon told him the area was on a private road. Gordon got out of his pickup, cursing and yelling. He struck the phone out of Stone’s hands, and it was damaged when it fell onto the road. Sheriff’s deputies were able to get video footage from the incident from the cellphone, said Ryan. Stone later placed the video footage on YouTube, which resulted in several television newscast stories. The judge dismissed two felony assault charges when Gordon pleaded guilty to three misdemeanors.

Learn more about mental illness BY JANINE MONIOT Imagine being somewhere, with someone you loved dearly, and realizing that they are experiencing profound mental illness and you are alone. What do you do? How to respond? Is there help? Maybe you don’t have to imagine, you just remember when it happened to you, but you still feel alone in your new reality. Me, too — until I found a class with other people whose stories and friendships helped me through my feelings and needs, helped me find resources, understand enough of the basics to be prepared for the future, and want to help promote awareness and services to improve, to have more support for my loved one, and to help explain and accept that most people with mental illness struggle with addiction and very importantly that their functioning changes from causes they can’t control either. Autism, schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s, depression, PTSD are some common mental illnesses. We all know someone with them, and sometimes it is ourself. All are welcome. I could and did become an advocate, a better friend, a family person, someone who didn’t expect that my loved one should be normal or that I could control their disease, or that anyone else could control their loved one’s mental illness. I became someone who understood and respected my loved ones, but still had an understanding and respect of my limitations, and someone who understood medications and other treatment options better than not at all. Someone who communicated better with my loved one, with medical staff, law enforcement, and with other family members who had not accepted their behavior as mental illness. If you want to learn more about mental illnesses to help yourself, a current friend cope with mental illness, or be better prepared for someone you love developing mental illness in its many names with developmental or age prevalence, if you want access to comprehensive information that I have found helpful to understand medication, symptoms, the physiological pathologies that create mental illness and my reactions — then take this NAMI class offered right here in Ramona starting Sept. 14. Information took some of my shock from the cyclical nature of mental illness. Without knowing about the cyclical aspect of mental illness, it can begin to look like a behavior choice to others, and the person struggling with mental illness becomes even more alone in a complex and dangerous world. With knowing comes a plan, strategies and an increased understanding of community resources — along with a lot less guilt. You are invited to learn more, to help yourselves, others; for everyone to live a successful life, an interconnected life. The insight from this class makes it more possible to be there for yourselves and others. Twelve weeks on Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. at 3394 Chapel Lane, Ramona. Register by email f2f@namisd.org or by phone at 800-523-5933. Janine Moniot is a Ramona resident.

OUR READERS WRITE All speech is free speech Rebuttal to “Hate speech is not free speech” letter in the Ramona Sentinel’s Sept. 1 issue. I assume Mr. Patterson was present for Mr. Horn’s presentation. It certainly wasn’t ‘hate speech’ but, by the way, if it had been, it is still protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America. He needs to read it. It’s a short little thing, easily understood and unambiguous. Unfortunately, many of our citizens, like Mr. Patterson, have had their brains confiscated by the PC Police. And it is they who should apologize to the people of Ramona and America for avoiding substantive discussion of a problem already plaguing Europe and promising to become monumental for America as well. The mission statement for the Ramona Tea Party states: "Our mission is to provide a forum to address grievances and concerns regarding the excessive spending, taxation and social engineering that we believe is rampant in federal, state and local governments. We are also concerned about the threat to our national sovereignty and lack of border security. We will accomplish this through education, information and responsible activism. We further commit ourselves to do this in a manner that is both responsible and respectful as we express our Constitutional right to peacefully assemble and to petition our government. We further believe that it is imperative that our government return to a Constitutional Republic as it was intended. This can only happen if the people of the United States of America participate in a government that is OF AND BY THE PEOPLE." In that vein, Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, who describes himself as a devout Muslim, presented in our forum of July 2015 “The Battle for the Soul of Islam” describing a “moderate” vision of Islam, clearly not ‘hate speech’. As soon as Christians, Hindus, Jews, Buddhists,
Shintoists, Sikh’s, etc. start lopping off heads in the public square, shooting and killing innocents where they work and play, arming children with suicide vests, you can rest assured we at Ramona Tea’d will shine a light on it publicly and bring in programs and speakers to inform the public. Tom McKelvey Ramona Tea Party member
Escape routes needed The fatal accident on Highway 67 recently shows again the need for an emergency route to bypass 67. What if someone needed an ambulance? By the time one could get through via 78 or Highland Valley, it would probably be too late. In 2003 the Cedar Fire went just south of me. In 2007 the Witch Creek fire went north of me. So, I am a bit of a veteran at evacuations. There are not enough escape routes out of Ramona. What I suggest is to study the possibility of improving and/or extending Forest Truck Trail from Highway 67 at the Scripps Parkway east, across Mussey Grade Road to Kimball Valley Road to Chuck Wagon Road to Wildcat Canyon Road. I understand that there is no money for roads, but at least with this path, it’s almost already made. Some of these roads may be private roads, but this is a matter of public safety. Perhaps a dirt road that is gated and opened in emergencies. I don't know all the answers. But I do know this would allow an alternate escape for tens of thousands of people. Look at how long it took to evacuate Ramona during the Witch Creek fire. If this route had been available during the Cedar fire, maybe those people on Muth Valley Road would not have died. With the new developments which have been approved, thousands of more people will have to evacuate. How many more must die before a change is made? L. Matthys Ramona

GUEST COMMENTARY
What we must know about Sharia Law and Islam BY DARRELL BECK never paid any attention to Muslims or Islam until America was attacked by radicalized Islamic terrorists on 9-11. Then after we went to war in Afghanistan and Iraq and I began hearing about Sunni and Shiite Muslims, I began to study Islam. One of the first things I learned was that Muslims must adhere to the teachings of the Qur’an, or Koran (Islamic Holy Book). The Koran teaches a way of life for Muslims, describing how they should live. Then I learned that Muslims are commanded by the Koran to kill infidels (non-believers of Islam). Upon realizing that I was an infidel, I decided I should learn more about this “religion of peace” and find out why they must kill infidels. Immediately following the 2008 General Election, a group of Ramona citizens organized Ramona Tea’d (otherwise known as the tea party), and by January 2010 we began presenting free, monthly public forums at Ramona Mainstage in an effort to help educate ourselves and the public on current events as well as urging support for the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law. During the past seven years we have sponsored over 70 free public forums covering a wide variety of subjects including radical Islam and stealth jihad. Foremost speakers on this subject appearing in Ramona include Brigitte Gabriel, Pamela Geller, Dr. Zuhdi Jasser (a Muslim), David Horowitz, Dr.
I
Jamie Glazov, Dr. Georgy Gounev, Dr. Carl Goldberg, J.J. Surbeck, Michael Hayutin and James E. Horn. All of our expert guest speakers have noted that since 9-11 the world has been under ever increasing terrorist attacks by Islamic Jihadists (terrorists, suicide bombers and rapists) who are committed to Jihad (war) against infidels. We learned that the core objective of “Stealth Jihad” is “eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within……it’s not negotiable, as its part of the basic duty of every Muslim” (Robert Spencer, “Death by a Thousand Cuts”). Today the entire Middle East and North Africa are in chaos. Europe is being invaded by millions of Muslim “refugees,” many of whom are likely Jihadists. As a result, tens of thousands of innocent people, especially Christians and infidels, are being slaughtered, tortured, raped and displaced from their own lands by the followers of the Islamic Qur’an (Islamic holy book). Here at home, in an effort to advance globalism, multiculturalism, tolerance, social justice and open borders, our “progressive leadership” is ignoring the potential for domestic terrorism as our borders are wide open to potential terrorists, while Muslim refugees are being strategically and covertly resettled in selected communities all across America by presidential decree. Under the current administration, hundreds of thousands of un-vetted Syrian

Look out for the
refugees will soon be brought to America where, unlike our ancestor immigrants of years past, the majority of today’s Muslim “refugees” will immediately receive special privileges including food stamps, Medicare and subsidized housing at taxpayer expense. We must understand there are core differences between U.S. law and Islamic law; that’s why followers of the Qur’an will never assimilate into the “melting pot” of America. As a flood of immigrants from the most brutal places on earth are being “settled” here, they are gradually making Islamic demands and, by using our laws against us, imposing their values, and, ultimately, their laws, upon the larger population just as they do in every other land they currently occupy. Then mosques will be built as an Islamic symbol of conquest. Our Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights was based on Judeo-Christian principles, thus America was founded as a Christian nation. However, unlike Islam, the founders created our form of government with a separation between church and state because they didn’t want a government such as the one they were renouncing where a British King held authoritarian control over religion as well as politics and government. However, Islamic law as prescribed by the Qur’an is just the opposite and is not compatible with our form of government because Islam is a militaristic political
ideology imbued with Islamic Law and cloaked in religion, having a final goal to rule the world by replacing all other laws with Sharia; this includes overriding the U.S. Constitution, which is considered subordinate to Sharia by followers of the Qur’an. Some people may remember, while during a speech at the United Nations following the attack on Benghazi by Islamic jihadists in 2012 when the President proclaimed….. “The future must not belong to those who slander the Prophet (of Islam).” So we must ask — what does the President’s decree foretell for the rights and security of Americans? Does this mean Americans must remain silent on the matter of Muslim “resettlement” and tolerate the rise of Sharia in America? Does this mean we must stand by and surrender our First Amendment rights to Islam in an effort to be hospitable? If so, does this mean that the entire U.S. Constitution will eventually be subordinated to Sharia? The Qur’an teaches that under Sharia Law submission to Allah (God of Islam) is supreme. Sharia cannot be reformed because it’s Allah’s law, and is perfect, universal and complete, according to Islamic scholars. They say U.S. law is inferior because it’s a law written by man, whereas Islam was written by Mohammad. There is no Golden Rule under Sharia Law. Death is the penalty for criticism of Islam or SEE BECK, A6

FROM BECK, A5 Mohammad. Death is the penalty for being an infidel or an apostate (one who renounces Islam). Women are considered second-rate property, subject to all kinds of humiliation and beating. Gays are thrown off rooftops to their death. Stoning, beheading, crucifixion, amputations and “honor killings” are all penalties applied to non-believers under Sharia Law; the so-called “religion of peace,” as so described by the President. If it’s true that we are being forced to yield our First Amendment rights and must remain silent while incrementally being unknowingly forced into submission to Sharia, could it be we will also be forced to surrender our Eighth Amendment rights, whereupon cruel and unusual punishments, forbidden by our law, but legal under Sharia, would eventually become the law of the land? Since Ramona Tea’d began our effort to shed light on many important topics, while making them available to the public, we have received the highest praise from many people, while others have called us racists, bigots, homophobes, deniers and Islamaphobes in an effort to silence us. Just recently we were accused of “hate speech” and “corrupting our children with anti-American ideals” by a local person who has absolutely no facts to support his slanderous charge of hate speech because he doesn’t attend our public forums. In conclusion, I ask of those who defend Islam: if the so-called “moderate Muslims” actually exist, where are they? It’s been 15 years since 9-11. Where are those pro-American Muslims with the courage and conviction to speak out against Islamic Jihad and to stand up for America? Darrell Beck, a Ramona resident, is a member of Ramona Tea’d.
Bucket Brigade waters monument plants Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church’s Bucket Brigade is resolving watering problems at Welcome to Ramona Monument corner where Caltrans is conducting an intersection improvement project. In early August, the new owner of the corner, Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church, received complaints that plants around the monument at state Route 67 and Highland Valley Road were dying. According to Pastor Dan Erlenbusch, Caltrans apparently had removed the existing water meter some time in June or July but had never notified him. When he learned of the problem, Erlenbusch began organizing a bucket brigade to save the remaining plants. Church member Russ Popma leads the effort in hauling 150 to 300 gallons of water every week to irrigate the plants. This includes lifting multiple gallons of water to the shrubs in the monument planters. Unfortunately, Erlenbusch reported, the gazanias and geraniums were lost. However the roses are coming back and all others seem to be doing well. Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church expects to begin grading for its new campus off state Route 67 and Highland Valley Road in September. In the course of construction a new water meter eventually will be installed at which time the church will install low-water Xeriscape in front of the monument. Until then, that ground must remain bare, noted Erlenbusch.

Bakery brings bits of England to Ramona BY KAREN BRAINARD here's no need to cross the pond for a proper English tea and scone or a Cornish pasty, because Joanne Bennett has brought them to downtown Ramona. “It's really by chance, really, that it happened,” Bennett said of opening The London Bakery at 632 Main St. “It almost seemed like Ramona chose me.” In addition to a variety of freshly-baked scones, The London Bakery offers cakes, including Bennett's grandmother's recipe for Queen Victoria Spongecake, lemon cream puffs, shortbread and other desserts as well as savories. The bakery opened July 10 and held a grand opening on Saturday. Bennett, who hails from England, uses many family recipes but she often tweaks them to make them her own. “I'm all about the flavors,” she said. Bennett acquired her baking skills from growing up in her mother's pub in East London.
T
“I kind of grew up with her and my grandmother, kind of learning from their apron strings of how to bake pies and make great pastry,” Bennett explained. In England chicken mushroom pot pies are a staple, Bennett said, but her family added ham. Bennett’s pot pies have been hot sellers in Ramona. “We’ve had people reserving them while they’re in the oven,” she said, adding she may select certain days for the pot pies, as well as the Cornish pasties. Bennett noted that Cornish pasties originated in Cornwall, where her mother was raised, as a meal to send off with the miners. The baker enjoys providing historical references and also wants to dispel some myths about the English and their teatime, many that she finds amusing. “People in England don’t sip tea all day,” she said. “The pinkies-up thing (when holding a teacup) is a myth. We don’t do that,” she added with laugh. Her Afternoon Teas, requiring

Americans this is how scones are supposed to be,” she said. “They should be flaky and a little bit hard and crusty on the outside, break them open, fluffy on the inside and soft and moist, and not overly sweet and not full of glaze on the top.” Originally scones were plain, Bennett said, but she Americanized hers with different fillings. “’Course, my grandmother would probably turn in her grave if she knew I was putting chocolate chips in a scone,” she chuckled. Other scone flavors include orange cranberry, blueberry, and cherry almond. The strawberry lavender was a creation of her son, Zane, who is 8 years old. Bennett also has a 19-year-old daughter, Paige. So, how did this Londoner end up in Ramona? Eleven years ago, Bennett met her husband, Richard, through an online dating site. The only problem was he lived in Houston, Texas. After marrying they lived in SEE BAKERY, A10

Doctor shares experiences as physician in Iraq

I said to myself, ‘I don’t want to do that.’” Instead, he teamed up with the multicultural group of doctors, who all have the same mission, vision and values. Hardison said it took him more than 12 trips to the capital, a two-to-three-hour drive each way, and a year to become a Kurdish-certified

family doctor. Doctors work for the government, he said. “All the doctors have to work from 8 in the morning to 2 in the afternoon. That’s what you have to do,” he said of the socialized medicine. “You may or may not get paid by the government but you have to be there.” From 3 to 8 or 9 p.m., doctors can open
their own practice and work for “good ole hard cash,” he said. Private doctors can provide more immediate care, he noted, than government-run facilities. There is a dual system in government, he said — “basically it’s who you know.” While he was able to get a car in three days because his translator had an uncle working in the mayor’s office, it took two months for someone else who didn’t have the connections, he explained. According to Hardison, Americans are viewed as good because they created a safe place for the Kurdish people. The city of Duhok has beautiful areas and shopping centers, he said, but there are refugee camps nearby where he tends to patients. In the camps, 20,000 to 40,000 people live in tents, having fled ISIS. He outlined the size of a tent that would house four to 12 people with a little kitchen and separate toilet area outside. Temperatures can reach 117 degrees in the summer and drop to the upper 20s in the winter. Hardison is planning to return, possibly in three weeks, depending on whether his family is ready. Noting that family comes first and he is giving his sons, ages 12 and 14, extra time at home, the doctor said: “I’m not going to sacrifice my kids for my job.” He seemed humbled by the crowd that attended. “I look across the audience and I’m just like amazed to see friends and patients…so this is just really a privilege to me,” he said.

2015
BY KAREN BRAINARD Dr. Charles Hardison, M.D., gave residents and former patients a personal view into a region and culture that most only know of from news reports about the Mideast. In his recent presentation, “Reflections of an American Family Medicine Doctor in the Kurdish Region of Iraq,” at Ramona Library, Hardison talked about his work to develop family medicine in that region, known as Kurdistan. Formerly with Arch Health Partners in Ramona, Hardison left in early 2015 with his wife and two sons to live in Duhok, a city of about one million people in Kurdistan, where they rent a two-story house and he works with a multicultural group of doctors. “Medicine there is very different,” he said. A year before the move, Hardison took his family there on spring break to see what the culture was like and understand the challenges. “But little did we know that 39 days after we left there was an invasion by ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) in Mosul, which is about 50 miles away,” he said. The northern Kurdish area is very secure, he said, describing the borders as tight and security strong. When they moved to Duhok in February 2015, however, the government did not have enough money for his project. The doctor said he spent six months waiting and sitting in government clinics, learning the language and culture, and observing a lack of compassion and quality care. “Sometimes the patient encounters would

San Vicente Reservoir to open Sept. 22 BY KAREN PEARLMAN San Vicente Reservoir in Lakeside will reopen for fishing and recreation Sept. 22 after a little more than eight years of being closed. The reservoir, owned by the city of San Diego, shut down to visitors Sept. 2, 2008, so the county Water Authority could raise the height of the reservoir’s concrete dam to increase its water storage. The dam is now at 337 feet. The Water Authority also constructed a new marina. San Vicente Dam, built between 1941 and 1943, originally stood at 220 feet and could store up to 90,000 acre-feet of water. An acre-foot — about 326,000 gallons — is the amount of water used by two typical households in one year. The project to increase the height raised it by 117 feet. According to the Water Authority, it was the tallest dam raising in the United States and the tallest of its type in the world. The raised dam will store up to an additional 152,000 acre-feet of water, more than doubling the capacity of the original reservoir, the county says. General boating and fishing permits are
needed to enter the reservoir, which will be open Thursday through Monday. Monday will be for fishing only. Wakeboarding and water skiing can be done Thursday through Sunday. Permits will be available only through Ticketmaster. They are $8 to fish and $7 for boat launches, plus Ticketmaster processing fees. The new marina the Water Authority built is intended to reduce boat launching wait times and provide picnic table areas and shade structures. The authority said the marina features an improved access road, an expanded boat ramp with six lanes and a parking lot accommodating more than 300 vehicles. The San Vicente Dam raising was part of the authority’s more than $1 billion emergency storage project. That project has been creating new emergency water storage and pipeline connections to deliver water throughout the region if the county’s imported water supply is disrupted. San Vicente Reservoir is at 12375 Moreno Ave. in Lakeside. Karen Pearlman writes for The San Diego Union-Tribune.
Montecito Ranch could begin grading in 2017 Grading for Montecito Ranch is expected to start before this time next year, according to a consultant requesting a habitat loss permit for the residential development at the Ramona Community Planning Group meeeting Sept. 1. Montecito Ranch, an approved development on 935 acres, northeast of the intersection of Montecito Way and Sonora Way, will have 417 single-family homes, parks and 558 acres of open space. The planning group approved the habitat loss permit for the loss of 62.2 acres of Diegan coastal sage scrub that was included in the final Environmental Impact Report certified by the county Board of Supervisors in 2010, according to
the consultant. Total coastal sage scrub on site is 318 acres, she said, and the mitigation proposed exceeds the standard 2 to 1 ratio by preserving 256 acres of the coastal sage rather than 124 acres. The habitat loss permit is good for one year, she said. In other development, planners approved a site plan exemption request for the “S” Scenic Designator for a prefabricated steel classic American barn, measuring 40 feet by 60 feet by 18 feet 8 inches, at 139 Rancho Allen Lane, off state Route 78. Members said not much of the barn would be seen from the highway and the design fits the rural community character.
Grant funds Pamo Valley segment of Coast to Crest trail The San Dieguito River Park Joint Powers Authority (JPA) has been awarded a $285,140 River Parkways Program grant from the California Natural Resources Agency to build a three-mile long segment of the Coast to Crest Trail in Pamo Valley near Ramona. The trail through Pamo Valley will link two existing forest service trails — the Lower Santa Ysabel Truck Trail and Upper Santa Ysabel Truck Trail — to complete 12.85 miles of the regional multi-use Coast to Crest Trail. The proposed trail alignment is adjacent to
Pamo Road on land owned by the City of San Diego Public Utilities and is surrounded by the Cleveland National Forest. According to the San Dieguito River Park, the grant will pay for materials, supplies, subcontractors, and other construction-related costs, and will fund two trailheads, interpretive signage and habitat restoration near the trail. Construction will be provided by river park rangers and volunteers, along with work crews from California Conservation Corps and Urban Corps, and is expected to begin this fall.

FROM BAKERY, A7 England for five years but Bennett said he became homesick so they moved to Houston. When he was offered a job in San Diego, they moved and eventually made their way to Ramona. Being a baker was not her original plan. "I have a passion for baking — I love it — but my soul is singing,” she said. A professional singer, Bennett was with a band in England, performing “jazz, Motown, reggae, rock-n-roll, everything.” Music in the United States, though, was different — everyone wanted her to also play an instrument. Instead, she turned to her other passion. In San Diego Bennett began selling her bakery items at farmers’ markets. When they moved to Ramona and she looked for a commercial kitchen to rent, a friend mentioned the storefront adjacent to Ramona Café, both owned by Sonja Steiner. "It's been great so far. The feedback, the reviews have been wonderful,” said Bennett. For more information, see www.eatlondonbakery.com.
Author to give free workshop on book publishing Unicorn Books and Gifts will host renowned book publicist Paula Margulies, author of “The Tao of Book Publicity,” for a free workshop and book signing on Saturday, Sept. 17, at 3 p.m. In “The Tao of Book Publicity,” Margulies outlines the basics of book promotion and explains how the business of publicizing a book works. Designed for beginning authors but also useful for those with some experience in book publishing, “The Tao of Book Publicity” provides information on the importance of writing a good book and the need for developing a platform, as well as how-to explanations for creating publicity material, including front and back cover text, press releases, Q&As, media and blog tour queries, and newsletter and media lists. The book also covers social media, book pricing and sales, book tours and
media interviews, and author websites. In addition to explaining how book publicity works, this handbook explores practical topics such as publicity costs, timing and considerations when hiring a publicist. Simple, straightforward and informative, “The Tao of Book Publicity” includes advice on all aspects of book promotion and is a go-to reference guide for beginning and experienced authors alike. “I wrote this book to help authors understand what’s involved in promoting a book and what they should expect if this is their first time trying to sell a book they’ve written,” said Margulies. “The Tao of Book Publicity is based on years of experience working with both traditionally and self-published authors and answers the most common questions I hear from new authors when they contact me
about representing their work.” The handbook has received early praise from the publishing community, including Huffington Post contributor and Author Magazine editor Bill Kenower, Southern California Writers’ Conference director Michael Stephen Gregory, and UCSD writing instructor Marni Freedman, who writes, “The Tao of Book Publicity is filled with easy-to-implement, savvy, practical advice from an experienced industry insider. Paula Margulies breaks down the often-confusing landscape of book publicity with clarity, humor, and insight. Don't promote without reading it first.” Margulies is the owner of Paula Margulies Communications, a public relations firm for authors and artists. She has received numerous awards for her essays and works of fiction, including
her nonfiction handbook, “The Tao of Book Publicity,” her historical novel, “Favorite Daughter, Part One,” her first novel, “Coyote Heart,” and her short story collection, “Face Value: Collected Stories.” A San Diego resident, she has been awarded artist residencies at Caldera, Red Cinder Artist Colony, the Vermont Studio Center, and Centrum. Unicorn Books and Gifts is at 845 Main St., in the Olde Ramona Hotel Gallery. In business since 2012, the independent bookstore is locally owned and operated by Stacy Bart.

The other forest animals laugh at him: “Woodpeckers don’t eat waffles,” they say. But Benny has a brilliant plan. In “A Perfect Mess,” Henry McHenry is a messy rhino, but he

Author delves into Winnie-the-Pooh’s world Author Kathryn Aalto will present her best-selling book, “The Natural World of Winnie-the-Pooh,” which delves into the home of the beloved bear, at 11 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 10, in the Ramona Library Community Room. Ramona Garden Club and Friends of the Ramona Library will host the open-to-the-public event.
The book “explores the magical landscapes where Pooh, Christopher Robin and their friends live and play,” says a flier on the event. “The Hundred Acre Wood — the setting for Winnie-the-Pooh’s adventures — was inspired by Ashdown Forest, a wildlife haven that spans more than 6,000 acres in southeast England.” Aalto, a landscape designer, historian and
lecturer, has a special interest in the geography of childhood and literary landscapes, says her biography. A question and answer session will be held with the author, followed by a book signing and reception. The garden club will conduct its September meeting after the reception. Ramona Library is at 1275 Main St. For more information, call 760-788-5270.

Bulldogs lose to Pt. Loma by a touchdown Team shows significant improvement, coach says BY JOE NAIMAN Although the Ramona High School football team lost 27-21 against Pt. Loma High School at Clairemont High School on Friday, head coach Damon Baldwin noted that the Bulldogs showed significant improvement from their first match, which was a 62-13 loss to St. Augustine. “We're fired up,” Baldwin said. “I've never been so happy with a football team.” Point Loma entered the game ranked 12th in the San Diego Section. Two long plays in the fourth quarter might have won the game for Ramona, but were called back due to penalties. “"I was just really happy that the kids competed for 48 minutes,” Baldwin said. “I was really pleased with the improvement of the team.” The lowlight of the evening was not one of the plays called back or one of the touchdowns allowed but an ankle injury to starting quarterback Casey Buggeln. “The biggest disappointment was losing Casey,” Baldwin said. “That's not good, but
we've got a couple of young kids.” After Buggeln was injured early in the second quarter, junior C.J. Gabriel, who has practiced as a wide receiver, took over as quarterback. “He did a nice job,” Baldwin said. Baldwin plans to use sophomore Derek Diamond on the varsity until Buggeln is healed. The first play of the game was a 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by Ramona junior Tristan Stacy. Israel Torres kicked the extra point for a 7-0 Ramona lead. The Pointers scored on their first possession, but on Ramona's first offensive play of the game Buggeln hit Stacy for a 63-yard touchdown pass and Torres kicked the extra point. Stacy also had the reception and the punt return that were called back in the fourth quarter. “Tristan Stacy was all-county that night,” Baldwin said. The two quick touchdowns help to explain why Ramona only had nine offensive plays during the first half, but during the game Pt. Loma had 77 offensive snaps and Ramona ran 33 offensive plays. “The defense has some work to do,” Baldwin said. “Time of possession was a

big advantage to Pt. Loma. They controlled the clock.” Although Pt. Loma had a 21-14 halftime lead, the Pointers were held to 6 points in the second half. “The defensive kids showed a lot of improvement from game one,” Baldwin said. “There were a lot of positives.” During the fourth quarter Gabriel connected with Dominic McManus for a 10-yard touchdown pass, and Torres' kick narrowed the deficit to 27-21. Ramona's
defense stopped Pt. Loma, and on the next possession Gabriel threw to Stacy for an apparent 70-yard touchdown. One of the other Ramona players touched a Pt. Loma defender in the shoulder. According to the rules a penalty is called if the defender has a chance to make a play. The referee nullified the touchdown, but another official later told Baldwin that the defender had no chance to make the play. The Bulldogs were unable to score. Ramona's defense once again stopped the Pointers. Stacy returned the punt to the Pt. Loma 6-yard-line, but a penalty was called against Ramona for a block in the back. “That probably was more justified,” Baldwin said. A tying touchdown — and possibly a game-winning extra point — thus eluded Ramona. “Just proud of the team,” Baldwin said. “The kids played really hard and our goal was to improve from week one, to play smarter and tackle better.” The Bulldogs' first home game of the season will take place Friday night when San Pasqual visits Ramona. “We look forward to playing in our Ramona blues this week,” Baldwin said.

Glotfelty earns medalist honors BY KAREN BRAINARD Ramona High School’s girls golf kicked off its season Aug. 30 with a non-league match against Oceanside in which returning Bulldog varsity player Kaley Glotfelty earned medalist honors with a 39. The Ramona girls lost in the 265-281 match played on their home course, San Vicente Golf Resort. Also contributing to the team score were Kourtney Burger, 55; Kennedy Flick, 57; Carter Flick, 62; and Kelsey Sherman, 68. Ciara Webb-Martin shot a non-scoring 71. Only the top five scores are used for the team total. On Sept. 1, the varsity team played another non-league match, falling to Steele Canyon, 271-303, at home from the par 36 gold tees. Burger was the team’s low scorer with a 57 followed by Hannah Anderson, 60; Sherman, 61; Webb-Martin, 62; and Flick with a non-scoring 63. This year Ramona fielded a total of 16 players with eight on varsity and
eight on the junior varsity team. Nine are returning players and seven are new, said coach Michael Gainey. Glotfelty, a senior, is the strongest player, he said. Although the teams are young and inexperienced, Gainey said he sees players showing promise. “This first week of matches has provided good competitive practice for everyone,” said Gainey. “A few of the girls improved upon their scores from Tuesday's match. We will be spending extra time during practice working on putting and general rules as these are areas in which everyone has struggled.” Gainey said he feels confident that at least one or more individual players will qualify for the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) championships at the end of the season. Last year Glotfelty was the only Ramona player to qualify for the championships. As a team, the Bulldog girls finished their 2015 season with a 3-7 league record and 6-8 overall.

Sulser pitches Savannah to league championship Ramona grad earns All-American BY JOE NAIMAN Beau Sulser not only received collegiate summer baseball league experience with the Savannah Bananas of the Coastal Plain League, but he led the league in earned run average, pitched the Bananas to the league championship, and was named a summer league all-American. “This was my first major summer ball experience, and it was awesome,” Sulser said. Sulser graduated from Ramona High School in 2012. His freshman year at Dartmouth was in 2013, and that summer he was in the San Diego County summer league. Due to tendon replacement surgery, Sulser did not pitch in a summer league in 2014 or 2015. He also did not pitch for Dartmouth during the 2015 National Collegiate Athletic Association season, so that year did not count against his four years of college eligibility, and he will be a senior during the 2017 NCAA season. Players who have completed their senior season do not participate in collegiate summer leagues, so this year was Sulser’s final opportunity. “I actually wasn't even on a team until about three weeks before summer ball started,” he said. Dartmouth's catcher is Adam Gauthier, who was already on the Savannah roster. Gauthier
recommended Sulser to Savannah head coach Sean West. “Luckily I had a really good spring and he said 'OK,’” Sulser said. “It really helped to have a good spring at Dartmouth.” Sulser's 2016 statistics for Dartmouth included a 4-1 win-loss record in five starts and five relief appearances with a 2.82 earned run average and a .262 opponent batting average. He allowed 38 hits and nine walks in 38-1/3 innings pitched while striking out 30 batters. One of his starts was a complete-game shutout against Brown; in that seven-inning game, Sulser allowed four hits, a walk and a hit batter while striking out five. “It ended up being a really cool thing,” Sulser said of his summer experience. “I went down there and ended up doing pretty well for them.” The Coastal Plain League had 16 teams this year. Savannah was a first-year expansion franchise. “A new team in a league, usually they don’t do very well,” Sulser said. “Nobody knew how it was going to go because it was a first-year team.” Expansion teams often struggle on the field, but the Savannah fans provided support. The Bananas sold out 17 of their 22 regular-season home games, and the total attendance of 80,504 set a league record while the average attendance of 3,659 ranked second among 160 collegiate summer league teams nationwide. “The support down there was unreal,” Sulser said. “The fan base down there in Savannah was crazy.” Sulser noted that the players were recognized

His hosts, the Stillman family, attended all of Savannah's home games. Their 6-year-old son is a baseball fan.
“My host family was amazing,” Sulser said. The Coastal Plain League is a higher level of competition than the local summer league, he noted. “It was a whole different experience than what I'm used to,” he said. “Out there we're playing in front of 4,000 fans. It's one of the top college summer leagues in the nation, right behind the Cape Cod League.” Sulser made five starts and seven relief appearances during the regular season that began May 31 and ended Aug. 6. He was the winning pitcher in the regular-season finale against Florence, which gave him a 3-1 record for the regular season along with four saves. He led the league with a 1.21 earned run average, and opponents batted only .167 against him with only one home run in 162 at-bats. Sulser had one complete game and threw 44-2/3 innings, allowing 27 hits and eight walks while striking out 51. Savannah qualified for the league playoffs. Dartmouth head coach Bob Whalen had placed Sulser on a summer limit of 45 innings since 2016 was Sulser's first pitching year after the surgery. “Because I'm throwing well and stuff like that, I ended up throwing 45 in the regular season,” Sulser said. Sulser understood Whalen's innings limit. “He needs me for spring,” Sulser said. Sulser called Whalen and asked if he could pitch in the playoffs. “I put in all that work and I felt like I could really lead us to a championship, which would SEE SULSER, A16
Gig Life Illustrated in Cox Home of the Future Do you know how much Internet speed your home needs? Today, the average household is connecting six devices in the home to the Internet, from laptops and tablets to gaming and multiple smartphones, and that number is expected to increase in the near future. Cox Communications recently hosted an event in San Diego to demonstrate how gigabit speed is quickly turning the home of the future into the home of today for busy families, work-from-home professionals, gamers, budding musicians and future chefs.
Other demonstrations included architects from BNIM highlighting how they use high speed Internet to power their business and provide employees with improved worklife balance.

What does “gigabit speed” really mean? Gigabit speed is Internet that’s 100 times faster than the average speed. With gig speed, you can download 100 songs in three seconds, a full-length HD movie in less than 60 seconds or upload 1,000 photos in about a minute. Cox Communications has been delivering gigabit Internet speed to business customers for more than a decade, and now it’s focusing on providing ultra-fast gig speed to all of its residential customers. The Cox event at The Pinnacle on the Park apartment community showcased how Cox Gigablast speed provides reliable, quality service of 1,000 megabits per second. Demonstrations at the event ranged from competitive gamer Tyler Burnette playing Rocket League to Madonna’s violinist Jason Yang streaming music lessons. Local food blogger Whitney Bond, now a television and Internet star with more than 150,000 monthly views on her website, demonstrated how Gigablast service allows her to quickly load photos and stream videos to her blog and social media pages. “Without it, my business would be impossible!” she says.

FROM SULSER, A15 be awesome,” Sulser said. Whalen allowed Sulser seven playoff innings. The first playoff round consisted of one game in which the winner advanced. Sulser pitched the first-round game Aug. 10 at home against Asheboro. He threw all nine innings in Savannah’s 3-2 win over the Copperheads, allowing five hits and two walks while striking out 11. “It was an honor to do,” Sulser said of pitching the first playoff game.
The second round also consisted of a single game, and Sulser did not pitch. The Petitt Cup final was a best-of-three series, and after the Bananas and the Peninsula Pilots split the first two games, the rotation called for Sulser to pitch the winner-take-all game Aug. 16. Sulser doubted that Whalen would let him pitch in the championship game, so Sulser didn't inform his Dartmouth coach until afterward. “He was completely understanding and very supportive,” Sulser said. “It ended up working out.”

Reservations accepted for Second Amendment event District 71 Assemblyman Brian Jones (R-Santee) will host the 6th Annual 2nd Amendment Awareness event at the Lemon Grove Rod & Gun Club in Alpine on Saturday, Oct. 1. The event is open to the public, and can accommodate first-time shooters or experienced marksmen. “I am excited to once again be holding this wonderful event, which not only serves as a reminder of how important our Second Amendment is, but also provides individuals with an opportunity to learn how to safely operate a firearm for lawful purposes,” said Jones. “Every year, I interact with somebody who is attending this event as a first-time shooter because they want to learn how to defend themselves or their family. “In addition, I will also be providing an overview of the new gun control legislation that was recently signed by the Governor and how it will impact our ability to exercise our Second Amendment right.” Experienced instructors will help individuals learn how to safely handle and shoot various kinds of firearms. Participants will have the opportunity to shoot handguns, rifles and shotguns provided by the Lemon Grove Rod & Gun Club. All firearms brought to the range by their registered owner must be unloaded and stored until inspected by a firearms safety officer onsite.

PET OF THE WEEK MIMIE, an 11-year-old Siamese,
is looking for a loving home. This sweet feline was surrendered by her previous owner, who had recently gone blind and could no longer care for her. She is now spending some time in a foster home while she waits for a new family to love. Mimie may be a bit shy at first, but with a bit of patience and reassurance, she loves to be pet and purr. She is described as an affectionate and calm cat who enjoys other cats and spending time with her humans. She would love a cozy, calm home to spoil her for years to come! Mimie is available for adoption at San Diego Humane Society’s Oceanside Campus at 572 Airport Road.

Officials bolster San Pasqual fire station City News Service —San Diego Fire-Rescue Department has assigned an engine and four firefighters to a county-operated station in the San Pasqual Valley to improve service and response times in the outlying area, city and county officials announced Wednesday. The crew is stationed at the County Fire Authority's San Pasqual Fire Station 93 — east of the San Diego Zoo Safari Park on San Pasqual Valley Road — daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. The arrangement started with the beginning of the new fiscal year July 1 and is scheduled to last through at least October, and possibly as late as December.

FROM CRIME, A1 finger on the pulse of the criminal element residing in Ramona, and hopefully we are able to stop them before they can go out and caper again.” Deputies also look at what occurred in the past, Hartman said. “By trying to stay on top of our past issues, we also seem to have been able to displace or prevent the acts from reoccurring,” he said. The station is fortunate that Ramonans assist the department by self-policing their neighborhoods, added Hartman. “We have had several incidents where members of the community have observed suspicious people and vehicles and have reported them to us,” he said. “We have been able to investigate and/or make contact with these individuals before they have committed a crime or after one was committed and we were able to catch them and recover evidence of the crimes.
“With wildfires failing to respect city boundaries, regional collaboration is our best public safety tool,” said Ron Roberts, chairman of the county Board of Supervisors. A large portion of the valley is actually city of San Diego land, stretching east along state Route 78 well past the Safari Park. Since the closest city fire station is in Rancho Bernardo, many calls for service from the area force the San Diego department to rely on mutual-aid agreements with nearby fire agencies that can respond faster, said city officials. “Every second counts in an emergency,” Mayor Kevin Faulconer said at a news
conference. “By saving minutes of travel time, we're able to more effectively save lives and to protect homes.” The average response time to nine calls in July was nine minutes and 34 seconds — a 31 percent reduction compared to July 2014 and an 18 percent reduction compared to July 2015, the mayor's office reported. Firefighters based in Rancho Bernardo don't have to make as many runs into the San Pasqual Valley now, so are able to better serve their own neighborhood, according to the San Diego department. They only had to respond into the area once in July, compared to 14
times in the same period last year. “As the population and traffic in the San Pasqual Valley increases, we need our level of service to keep pace,” SDFRD Chief Brian Fennessy said. “Add to that the tall grass this year, plus the drought, and we needed to provide better protection for our residents there. This is a good first step toward accomplishing that.” In 2007, the Witch fire burned into the San Pasqual Valley and combined with a smaller blaze to create a firestorm that killed two people, injured 40 firefighters, destroyed 1,650 structures and blackened nearly 198,000 acres.

“There’s also a little luck.” Crime totals per 1,000 residents in Ramona for the first half of 2016 are: five rapes, four robberies, 11 aggravated assaults, five residential burglaries, nine non-residential burglaries, 13 larcenies over $400, 46 larcenies of $400 and less, 10 motor vehicle thefts, and no homicides and arsons. The complete report is online at sandag.org under News. Compared with 2015 mid-year statistics, property crime countywide was up 4 percent and violent crime rose by 1 percent, San Diego Association of Governments reported. However, the report stated, the overall crime rate was 30 percent lower than in the same period in 2006. “Given the confounding factors that can affect crime rates, it is not possible at this point to draw any definitive conclusions as to what exactly is causing these slight increases,” said Cynthia Burke, director of the agency’s Criminal Justice Research Division. “But despite the uptick, the
current crime rate in our region is still far lower than what it was 10 years ago.” Countywide reports of stolen vehicles increased the most during the first six months of the year — up 16 percent from 4,778 in 2015 to 5,551 this year, or an average of four more vehicles stolen per day, according to mid- year report. Arson reports were close behind with a 15 percent jump from 195 in the first half of last year to 224 this year. The homicide rate rose by 14 percent, or one more per month. In the first half of this year, 49 homicides occurred in San Diego County, compared with 43 during the same time span in 2015, according to the report. Rapes were up 4 percent from 2015, but officials said the increase may stem from law enforcement officers using a broader definition of what constitutes a rape. The change may have also affected aggravated assault rates, which fell by 1 percent. The 5,291 residential and commercial
burglaries reported in the first half of 2016 was 6 percent higher than the 5,012 similar crimes during the same period a year ago. Robbery reports increased by 4 percent, but petty theft fell 2 percent. Agency officials said property crimes made up 85 percent of crime in the region. Of the 31,799 property crimes reported in the first half of 2016, 34 percent were burglaries and vehicle thefts. Since 1980, San Diego Association of Governments has compiled and reported regional crime statistics for the county and remains the only local source for regional statistics not available at a national level, the report stated. The information is useful to local law enforcement agencies as they track the effectiveness of their prevention and response efforts, the agency added. The agency reports that Ramona’s population in 2015-16 was 36,387, up 1 percent from 30,037 in 2012, and the county’s population was 3.2 million, up 3 percent from 3.1 million in 2012.

County cranks volume Legislature approves on mosquito campaign Anderson-supported bills
BY GIG CONAUGHTON County environmental health officials are turning up the volume on their “Prevent, Protect, Report” message as the region plunges into peak West Nile virus season in a year that has also seen concerns over another mosquito-borne illness, the Zika virus. In the 2015 West Nile virus season, 43 of the 44 San Diegans who tested positive for the potentially fatal virus did so after mid-September. Just one tested positive before that, in August. This year, the county is ahead of that pace. Five San Diegans have tested positive for West Nile virus — four in two weeks. In addition, the county preventively hand-sprayed a small San Diego neighborhood recently to kill mosquitoes in a suspected case of mosquito-borne illness — Zika, dengue or chikungunya — that fortunately proved negative. So, county environmental health officials are renewing their call to the public to protect themselves — to “Prevent” mosquitoes from breeding, to “Protect” themselves from being bitten, and to “Report” breeding areas and invasive Aedes mosquitoes, which like to bite in daylight hours and can transmit Zika and other tropical diseases. The county is also releasing a new public service announcement video-jingle, “Mosquitoes, Mosquitoes, Protect Your Family,” in English and Spanish that will be played in venues such as county television and before movies at the free Summer Movies at the Park series. And it’s reacquainting the public with videos like “Is Your Back Yard a Mosquito Breeding Ground?”
Health officials said drought can increase mosquito populations. It can create stagnant water where mosquitoes can breed by lowering water levels in streams and creeks, and slowing runoff in storm drains. It can also prompt people to save water in cisterns and rain barrels that can unwittingly become mosquito hothouses if they’re not properly covered. Officials said the eggs of what could become disease-carrying mosquitoes may be hatching into wriggling larvae inside and outside homes right now. They could be in a saucer under a flower pot, in the dog dish, the rain barrel collecting condensation, in children’s toys in the backyard, or even in a tossed-away bottle cap. Mosquitoes, officials said, can easily breed undetected if people are not watching their homes and yards. They said that is true for the region’s native mosquitoes that can carry West Nile virus, and the Aedes invaders that can potentially transmit chikungunya, dengue or Zika. The discovery of those invasive Aedes species here in 2014 and 2015 upped the ante, and increased the need for the public to help prevent breeding grounds. That’s because they are known to prefer to live and breed around people, inside and outside of homes, and in the tiniest amounts of water. This year, County Vector Control officials have found mosquito eggs and larvae growing in buckets, trash cans, landscape drains, old tires portable toilet trays, leaky sprinkler boxes and ornamental garden lights. They’ve even found them in vases at cemeteries. To contact the county vector office, call 858-694-2888. Gig Conaughton writes for the County of San Diego Communications Office.

The last day for the State Legislature to pass bills was Aug. 31, and several of 38th District Sen. Joel Anderson’s legislative priorities passed both houses and awaited the governor’s signature. AB 2510 — Making it easier for concealed carry permit holders. Authored by Assemblyman Eric Linder and coauthored by Anderson, this bill requires the attorney general to create a uniform concealed carry weapons (CCW) license that local agencies will issue. “I was pleased to coauthor this bill to make it easier for CCW holders to carry one identification license rather than having to hold multiple licenses at a time,” said Anderson. “The Second Amendment is an important part of our American identity.” SB 823 — Gives victims of human trafficking some relief. Authored by Sen. Marty Block and coauthored by Anderson, this bill allows victims of human trafficking to petition the erasure of nonviolent charges from their criminal records. The bill was introduced to give these individuals a second chance to restart their livelihoods without having their opportunities spoiled by their unfortunate past. “We have a responsibility to take care of our neighbors, and I am glad we are one step forward to empowering those who were trafficked in the past with new opportunities,” said Anderson.
AB 1570 — Keeping collectibles real. Authored by Assemblywoman Ling Ling Chang and coauthored by Anderson, this bill requires sports memorabilia dealers to demonstrate a certificate of authenticity for any autographed sports item they sell. It was introduced to ensure the authenticity of all memorabilia sold in California and to increase consumer confidence within the industry. “I am ecstatic to coauthor this bill with Assemblywoman Chang,” said Anderson. “Discouraging memorabilia dealers from selling fake autographs will protect consumers.” AB 1744 — Standardizing “rape kits” for all California law enforcement agencies. Authored by Assemblyman Jim Cooper and coauthored by Anderson, this bill requires the Department of Justice and California’s forensic agencies to develop a standardized “rape kit” by January 2018. The bill was introduced to limit the potential for error when collecting and documenting evidence. “I want government to be effective, efficient and accountable,” said Anderson. “We need to standardize evidence collection for California’s law enforcement agencies so they can ensure the best protocols are followed when collecting evidence.” Ramona is among communities in the 38th District that Anderson represents.
