Lawn bowling green renovation Spring Fling Gala reflects RB club's revitalization coming March 14 BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK
BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK
The new grass that will soon start sprouting on the east lawn bowling green at Rancho Bernardo Community Park represents the new life that the Lake Hodges Bowls Club is experiencing after getting out of debt. Rancho Bernardo Community Park visitors might have noticed the east green has been covered with white sand since Feb. 23. Georgie Deno, the club’s public relations and marketing manager, said the sand is part of a $6,000 renovation the club is undertaking to rejuvenate the 120 feet by 120 feet space. She said fraze mowing was done to the green in order to bring it back to a playable condition. Due to the club’s debt, which reached $7,000, and club’s near closure two years ago, the membership decided then to not maintain one of its two greens beyond regular mowing. That meant the specialized, super-short mowing required to keep it playable was not done nor were weeds removed on a regular basis, saving the club $600 a month in maintenance for the past two years. Deno said she was among those who decided to revive the club by paying off the debt and increasing membership. Last year the debt was retired due to donations from the Southwest Lawn Bowls Association and increased membership, which went from 20 to 48. It is currently at 35, a typical downturn as the new membership year begins, she said. The ideal is 65 so the club can pay its maintenance bills. While the club’s greens are in the city-owned Rancho Bernardo Community Park, Deno said the club receives no city funding for maintenance or repairs of the two greens that have to be mowed shorter than golf course grass in order to be playable. Due to recent donations by club members — one for $20,000 and another for $12,500, with stipulations that the money be spent on facility upgrades and marketing — Deno said the club was able to spend a combined $10,000 on maintenance supplies, like purchasing a new mower, plus the fraze mowing renovation. The latter not only mowed the grass very short, it also removed weeds and thatch, Deno said. After that, a special sand was laid over it and smoothed with the use of a laser leveler. By late April, the green should be ready for play. She said they went with this technique — popular in Europe, but relatively new to the United States lawn bowling community — because if they used traditional renovation methods those would have taken at least four months, instead of the fraze method’s projected two months. While they would like to eventually do the same renovation to the other green that has remained playable, members decided to wait a year. To not increase their monthly
It’s time to put on your dancing shoes for Stone Ranch Elementary’s inaugural Spring Fling Gala, open to all adults in the community. The cocktail-attire fundraiser will feature dinner, dancing, auctions and more starting at 6 p.m. Saturday, March 14 at the Country Club of Rancho Bernardo, 12280 Greens East Road. Tickets are $50 per person or $100 per couple, available for purchase until March 12 at www.stoneranchfoundation.org. There is also an option to sponsor a teacher to attend the gala by making a $25 donation. The gala is the Stone Ranch Foundation’s new fundraiser, replacing its previous Girls Night Out and golf tournament, the latter primarily attracting men. “This is the first year we’re doing a couples event,” said foundation Treasurer Jill Engen, who is co-chairing the gala with Carol Ware. “We’re trying to make this big, having a photo booth, auctioneer who is supposed to be amazing, big ticket and small auction items, and gift cards to mostly local businesses. She said it is open to anybody in the community, not just Stone Ranch parents. Engen said their goal is 200 attendees and sponsoring all of the 17 teachers who have said they would like to attend. As of last Friday, around 80 tickets had been sold and 15 teachers had sponsors. Gala proceeds will go toward creating a third computer lab on the 4S Ranch campus. Engen said they hope to raise at least $25,000 to fully-fund the endeavor of creating a lab with 33 computers and paying for a computer technician to staff it by the end of this school year. Engen said the lab is needed because the school only has two computer labs, which are insufficient to handle all the students during Common Core testing, which will be done on computers. As for the big-ticket items available for the live auction, they are accommodations in a condo for a four day, three night Mammoth ski trip valued at $3,000; a full comprehensive orthodontic treatment for life, including braces provided by Dr. David Li and San Diego Orthodontic Specialists ($6,000 value); two chances for a student to be principal for a day (each valued at $1,000) and a reserved front row parking space for the entire 2015-16 school year ($1,000 value). Some of the silent auction items include restaurant gift cards, Padres game tickets, fitness classes, professional photography sessions, pampering baskets, jewelry, camping and beach baskets, a surfboard, autographed professional sports memorabilia, theme park tickets, Sony digital cameras, handbags and tote bags, veterinarian for a day experience, Maui Jim sunglasses, wine and wine accessories, a wine refrigerator, Legos gift basket, books, artist supplies, movie tickets, a pizza party, staycation packages and hotel nights downtown. For more information, contact Engen at 949-463-4445 or jillengen@yahoo.com.
The sand-covered east lawn bowling green at Rancho Bernardo Community Park, foreground, will soon look like the adjacent green and become playable after it went fallow for two years so the Lake Hodges Bowls Club could save money as it got out of debt. Photo provided maintenance bill, mowing will alternate each week for the two greens as will play, to keep each surface from getting too worn out. Having two greens available will help the club with its revitalization and long-term viability, Deno said. Two greens are needed if the club wants to host a Southwest Bowls tournament and group outings available to the general public. A green can accommodate up to 40 players. She said the club’s greens are the only ones open to the public in North County. All the others, like one at the Oaks North Community Center, are private greens. For $10 per player plus a $35 facility fee, the club puts on group events, ranging from corporate team-building exercises to birthday parties and alternatives for bachelor/bachelorette parties. Often the participants are first-time lawn bowlers. All needed equipment is provided. A regular game of bowls is two hours or longer, but group games typically go for 90 minutes following the 10-minute lesson on how to play, she said. Deno said club members come from throughout the area. For membership fees, playing times and other information, go to www.lakehodgesbowlsclub.com or call Georgie Deno at 858-715-0392.

County OKs body-worn cameras for sheriff's deputies SAN DIEGO (CNS) — The San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to begin taking bids for cameras that sheriff’s deputies can wear on their uniforms. (The department provides law enforcement to the City of Poway and the unincorporated community of 4S Ranch.) Law enforcement agencies in the San Diego region and across the country are starting to acquire the cameras so that officers can record interactions with the public. Sheriff Bill Gore wrote in his proposal that the devices, sometimes called “body-worn cameras,’’ increase accountability on the part of both officers and the public. Many agencies that use cameras have seen improvement in officer performance
as well as the conduct of the community members who are recorded. “This is a partnership,’’ Gore said. “The whole purpose is to increase that trust between law enforcement and the communities we serve.’’ Crime scene recordings can provide investigators, prosecutors and juries with detailed, accurate and compelling evidence, and could be used in training, he said. Outfitting the department’s personnel with the cameras and accessories is expected to cost more than $1 million a year, not including the cost of storing the recordings electronically, according to the sheriff. Gore’s proposal calls for staff to solicit bids from companies for demonstration systems; a vendor would be selected after
testing. Policies and procedures regarding the cameras would be vetted before they are field-tested, he said. “I think this is a great balance between protecting our deputy sheriffs and maintaining the strong trust we have throughout the county,’’ Supervisor Dave Roberts said. The San Diego Police Department has been outfitting hundreds of its officers with the cameras for nearly a year now. The SDPD’s decision to purchase the devices stemmed from a series of embarrassing incidents in which officers either abused, or were accused of abusing, members of the public. One of those officers was sentenced to prison for soliciting sexual favors from women he pulled over for alleged drunken
driving in the Gaslamp Quarter. Another was jailed after being convicted of illegally detaining four women while on duty. Police officials are also hoping that the presence of cameras will deter confrontations that lead to controversial shootings like those in New York and Ferguson, Missouri, that sparked nationwide protests, and reduce complaints of alleged racial profiling during vehicle stops. “The body cameras are extremely helpful,’’ SDPD Chief Shelley Zimmerman said last week. “We’re also hearing from our Independent Citizens Review Board on Police Practices that they’re finding the body cameras are very beneficial to finding out exactly what happened (in incidents that led to a complaint).’’

The will be no admission charge thanks to financial support provided by the company. This exhibit and 13 other state exhibits have been created by Patriotic Productions, a non-profit organization, in Omaha, Nebraska. Their goal is to complete an exhibit for every state. “We must remember these American heroes and speak their names when we see their family members. We can never forget those who sacrificed everything for our freedom,� said Dr. Mary Hawkins, president of Bellevue University. “This exhibit is created in such a way so it can travel throughout California, offering more people an opportunity to remember California’s fallen.� The Nebraska university is the financial sponsor of the traveling exhibit. Opening ceremonies at the Poway exhibit will be held from 9 to 11 a.m. on Monday, March 9 at at Rockwell Collins.
HONORS Joy P. Raab of Poway in Janaury received a master of arts degree in art education from Boston University. Mitchell Sturhann of Poway has been accepted to Ashland University for the fall semester of 2015 and will receive the President’s Scholarship for $11,000 annually to attend the Ohio school. Sturhann is a senior at Poway High School. Four Poway residents have recently been named to the Dean’s List at Boston University for the fall semester. Students recognized for this honor include: Connor J. Maher, Mary G. McMahon, Elizabeth B. Morlock, Erik W. Van Heyningen.
The San Diego Toy and Doll Museum is finally completely finished. The museum opened to the public at its permanent location at 14031 Midland Road, in the Old Poway Village Shopping Center, in late November with a gift shop and Lego room, but the main part of the museum remained unfinished until recently. The entrance fee for the museum remains $2. It is open on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The museum is also now holding special once-amonth workshops for kids which usually include a craft the kids can take home. This month, the workshop is “Lucky Leprechaun Day� with two events being held at 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Saturday, March 14. Kids can find the leprechaun and his pot of gold somewhere in the museum and receive a prize. They will also make their own leprechaun doll that they can take home. The March workshop will be $5 and requires an RSVP in advance. To RSVP, call 858-486-1446 or swing by the museum and sign up for one of the two time slots. The newly opened sec-

The museum is still accepting donations of antique and vintage toys and plans to keep evolving and growing its collection in the future, said Ballard.

City Council paid tribute to Emery and adjourned the meeting in his honor. Councilman Jim Cunningham spoke of being talked by Emery into replacing him on the council and how, after cleaning out his City Hall office, Emery left him only two items: a copy of the General Plan and note to Cunningham saying, “Don’t screw it up.� Mayor Steve Vaus said that “If Poway had a Mt. Rushmore, Bob Emery’s image would be on it.� While on the council Emery was a strong advocate for parks and recreation in the city and worked regionally on the planning and building of the Scripps Poway Parkway. He advocated for the construction of the Poway Center for the Performing Arts and for a close municipal relationship with the school district. Emery also was strong voice for volunteerism in the city. He called for the creation of the sheriff’s Senior Volunteer Patrol and sponsored the creation of the Reserve Park Ranger Program. Both he and his wife, Suzanne, were park rangers. One of Emery’s main passions was the Kumeyaay-Ipai Interpretive Center at Pauwai. He was instrumental in gaining over $350,000 in state matching funds for the center to create an education center for the public and for a third-grade education program in the Poway Unified School District. He and
his wife also served as docents at the center. Emery served 16 years as the city’s representative to the Metropolitan Transit System. As a strong advocate of public transit, he worked with other board members to expand the trolley system to East County. Following his retirement from the council, he wrote the monthly “My Town� column for the Poway News Chieftain. Emery retired in 2001 from Hidden Valley Middle School in Escondido after 36 years of teaching at the middle school level. He was hired by the Orange Glen School District in 1965. The district merged in 1971 with the Escondido Union School District. Emery served in several capacities in the district and was active in the leadership of several employee unions. Born in Los Angeles, he grew up primarily in Central and Southern California. He graduated from what was then Palomar Junior College then attended San Diego State College where he received a general secondary teaching degree credential in 1965. He joined the California Army National Guard in 1962 and served in the Escondido unit until 1970. During that time he was commissioned as a second lieutenant and rose to the rank of captain in 1969. In addition to his wife Emery is survived by two daughters, Kathleen and Krysty; a sister, Joyce Cook, and a grandson.

A meeting for non-English speaking parents is being set up and will be announced later. This is the second year the district has been required to develop an LCAP by the state of California, and it is part of the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), which dictates how districts receive educational funding from the state. Under the LCFF, state funding for schools is designed to be more flexible, allowing for more local control over academic spending priorities. The workshops are part of a feedback-gathering campaign the district is conducting to find out how the public wants state funds spent on their children’s education. In addition to the meetings, there will also be an online survey component in the future, as well as several other ways to give feedback. One of these is an email that the district has set up for parents and community members to send their thoughts and ideas for how the LCAP should be shaped. Emails can be sent to communityinput@powayusd.com. The meetings, which are held like workshops or roundtable discussions, asked participants to brainstorm one of five
questions and give feedback on what they think is important in that category and what the district needs to improve or work toward. The categories the district is focusing on are safety, learning environments and opportunities, defining and measuring success, fiscal responsibility and communication. Each table focused on a specific question, and were directed by a district facilitator to write down their thoughts, feedback and ideas on sticky notes, then organize them on a sheet of paper. The sheets of paper were then taped to the walls, so participants from other tables could read them and leave their own thoughts and ideas. The feedback from the papers will be compiled and released as a final report for the school board later this year. Several parents said they wanted to see the school district focus more on diversity in its curriculum and how it interacts with students. “I think the curriculum needs more interdisciplinary social justice and critical thinking,� said Diane Forbes-Berthoud, a
Chaparral and Bernardo Heights parent who worked at the learning environment table. Another parent, Shannell Thompson, who has five children attending Chaparral, Bernardo Heights and Rancho Bernardo High schools, said she had come to the meeting hoping to learn more about what issues other parents are experiencing, more about Common Core and diversity in the school system. Thompson said she also thought the meeting would be more of a town hall meeting, where the community would get up and discuss issues, not a round table. “I thought we would get up to the microphone and share concerns, and hear other parents’ concerns,� said Thompson. Mary Alice Mitchell, a parent who has children at Chaparral and Bernardo Heights, said she thought the meeting went well. “It was good to meet other parents and hear their concerns and be an active participant in my children’s education.� Mitchell, who sat at the safety table, said she was concerned if students felt safe, how the district handled bullying, and if all students felt they were being represented.

Business HearUSA helping community hear better
Stick to what you know best
BY EMILY SORENSEN
Long ago I learned the importance of focusing on my areas of expertise. I just can’t do everything. Apparently, not everyone got the memo to follow suit. Consider some of my friends in real estate. Like every business owner, each wants an edge over the competition. Each focuses on specific markets. Each has particular marketing needs to address. Most Realtors include networking, print advertising, social media, website presence, and collateral in their business plans. But marketing is typically outside their core comASK MR. MARKETING petencies, so these folks sometimes miss the target. For example, Jones Realty is currently running an attractive ad in an expensive publication. To maximize exposure, there’s a lightbox in their storefront window. On the lightbox is this page, torn from the magazine. The problem: the bright background light reveals the ad on the reverse side of the page. Backwards. Making the Jones Realty ad unreadable. The problem is immediately noticeable to anyone walking by the office after dark. Too bad nobody at Jones Realty checked. Thinking perhaps I’m being persnickety I backed off, until I saw Ms. Smith’s brochure, containing these mistakes: The personalized cover had a misspelled name on it; The market activity map incorrectly identified several street names; The pre-printed brochure shell was very pretty, but the personalized section (with the actual local listings) looked terrible. I called Ms. Smith and asked about these issues. Her response: “Okay,” without any whiff of contrition. If you’re a Realtor, your success will probably depend upon extensive networking, pounding the pavement, signage, and generating actual results which, in turn, will lead to more referrals. The collateral, advertising, and websites you’ll use to spread the message will help complement your primary efforts. Which sounds great on paper. However, if your secondary efforts degrade your primary ones, you’ve hurt yourself more than helped. Regular readers know I’m a great believer in business planning and comprehensive follow-through. Seeing these kinds of issues in such a hyper-competitive environment reinforces the importance of mapping out strategy, solid implementation, and, as my first grade teacher regularly reminded me, checking your work. After all, you only get one chance to make that first impression, right? With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Worried about your hearing, or aren’t sure if your hearing aid is right for you? HearUSA, at 14845 Pomerado Road in Poway, is here to help. HearUSA, a national network of hearing care centers that was started over 25 years ago in Florida as HEARx, provides hearing screenings, hearing aid help and dispensing, and medical referrals. The Poway center opened in Februar y 2013, and has been helping people with their hearing ever since. In addition to helping people in the HearUSA Poway office, the staff is also helping people in the community with their hearing issues by holding free classes the first two Wednesdays of ever y month at the Ed Brown Senior Center in Rancho Bernardo. At these classes, Marnie Lewis, the audiologist at HearUSA, helps both patients and seniors understand the process of better hearing, how to select hearing aids and why certain hearing aids will work best for them. Lewis also helps teach communication strategies to help overcome hearing loss and the shor tcom-

Photo by Emily Sorensen ings in hearing aids. “The classes (at the Ed Brown Senior Center) are really fun, I like doing them,” said Lewis. “Plus, the RB park is a really beautiful place to be.” Lewis began working at HearUSA’s Hillcrest center in 1998, and transferred to the Poway center when it opened in 2013 so she could work closer to her home in Rancho Penasquitos and her children’s
schools in the Poway Unified School District. The switch to Poway also allowed her to be more involved with the community, she said. She has also kept busy working on her doctorate in audiology, she said. Lewis said that she’s seen several of her former Hillcrest patients who have followed her to the Poway center because it is closer to their homes and more
convenient. “It’s nice to help people close to home,” she said. At HearUSA, you will receive a full diagnosis and introduction to treatment. If your hearing problem is discovered to be medical in nature, the center will provide you with a referral to a doctor, Lewis said. When your diagnosis is complete, you can sample many hearing aids at the center to see which one will work best for you. HearUSA follows up with its clients, doing needed adjustments to hearing aids and making sure they are still the best fit and option for your hearing needs. HearUSA also keeps up with the latest developments in hearing aid technology, Lewis said, including Bluetooth hearing aids that connect wirelessly with your cellphone and allow you to answer phone calls with the push of a button. Lewis said that knowing what to expect out of a hearing aid helps a patient be happier with what help it can provide. A hearing aid will never give you perfect hearing, she said. “If you know what to expect, you won’t be disappointed,” Lewis said. “This is where the classes help. I’m seeing more happy hearing aid wearers.”

Leaders: Economy improving amid problems Taxes, fees, infrastructure and housing listed among hurdles BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Improving infrastructure, making higher education and housing more affordable, revamping taxes, streamlining processes and cities working together are among ways to improve the San Diego region’s economy, according to some local politicians. If these can be accomplished, the region — and state — has a better chance of attracting and retaining businesses, said speakers at the Feb. 27 State of the Region Luncheon. The annual event, organized by the North San Diego Business Chamber, was held at Sony Electronics in Rancho Bernardo. Around 115 business leaders and government representatives were in attendance. Diane Harkey, who represents District 4 on the state’s Board of Equalization, was the keynote speaker. After Harkey’s talk, there was a panel discussion featuring Assemblyman Brian Maienschein, San Diego City Councilman Mark Kersey and Oceanside Mayor Jim Wood. Maienschein, a former San Diego City Councilman, and Kersey represent Rancho Bernardo and surrounding communities. “The problem is not a lack of resources,” Harkey said. “We have everything we could want, but are inefficient in using them.” She said the state has not had a plan on how to adequately use its resources — including water — since Gov. Jerry Brown’s father, Edmund “Pat” Brown, was California’s governor (1959-1967). Harkey also said coastal communities, such as San

Photos by Elizabeth Marie Himchak Diego, those in Orange County and San Luis Obispo are doing “really well” in terms of employment compared to those farther inland, which needs to have more jobs that in turn create more taxpayers who can help the state’s problems. She said 66 percent of the state’s revenue comes from income tax and another 22 percent from sales tax. What is not good is the state spending $142 billion on health and human services compared to $75 billion on education. “We’re funding a lot for those not able to help themselves, which is a good thing, but they need to get back to work,” Harkey said. She explained how the Board of Equalization addresses tax issues and described its efforts to help taxpayers who have sometimes paid too much. She also said it is the board members’ jobs to push back against tax laws they deem harmful. “I’ve never known a tax reform that was not a tax increase,” Harkey said, later adding rejected reform proposals are regularly reintroduced. “Once it is on the table, it will come back. Ideas in Sacramento never die. There are no new ideas, they just keep regurgitating (the old ones).” Harkey said San Diego’s biggest problem is its lack of affordability and fees are among contribut-
ing problems because they drive up costs, especially for housing. While green technology makes new homes more environmentally friendly, she said it alone is adding $10,000 to $13,000 to construction costs. “You have to see what (fees) are doing to the whole package,” she said. “I do believe the state needs to evolve with the times and changes in industries,” Harkey said. “We need to change with the business models.” Now a few months into his second two-year term, Maienschein said “nothing can shock me” about proposals he hears in Sacramento. “There is not a lot of good (proposals) for business and they are egregious for small business,” he said. Last year there were 37 bills introduced that he called “job killers.” While Maienschein (a Republican) said he voted against all of them, three passed. “I anticipate 37 more this year,” he added. Maienschein said the high speed rail system, which he called “a complete boondoggle” and “huge waste of money,” has sidetracked efforts for beneficial endeavors, like keeping education at state universities affordable and accessible for California residents, fixing the state’s “way behind” water infrastructure, creating jobs and SEE ECONOMY, Page B9

Pomerado Hospital's microscope is latest in eye surgery technology Eye surgery patients at Pomerado Hospital in Poway are now able to take advantage of the latest in optometric technology, thanks to the generosity and support of donors and grateful patients. The Zeiss OPMI Lumera 700 microscope with resight viewing system is now being used the hospital that is part of Palomar Health, the state’s largest public healthcare district. The microscope, made by Zeiss — a world-renowned leader in optics — makes tissue highly visible, allowing surgeons to operate better and faster with fewer chances for complications, officials said. They project eye surgeons will perform about 200 surgeries each year using the new microscope. “The Zeiss Lumera is the best ophthalmic microscope money can buy,” said Dr. Paul E. Tornambe, a retina specialist. “I am pleased to provide our patients care using the most technologically-advanced equipment to achieve the best outcomes possible. “In this era of limited reimbursement and the need for very expensive equipment, we are deeply grateful to the Palomar Health
Foundation, to patients who have contributed specifically to obtain this microscope and to Carol Lazier, who contributed most generously to make acquisition of the microscope possible,” Tornambe said. Specialists who perform eye surgeries at Pomerado Hospital are using the microscope to treat complex eye diseases such as cataracts and detached retinas. This device will also help support the growth of Pomerado Hospital’s eye surgeries as it continues to work toward becoming a Center of Excellence for ophthalmic surgeries. Officials said unlike older ophthalmic microscopes, the Zeiss Lumera provides better optics and safer lighting because the light generated provides a safer wavelength with less chances of damaging the retina since it eliminates UV wavelengths. They said it is also more energy and cost efficient because the “bulbs” it uses last longer and take up less energy. The microscope also features a high-resolution digital camera, which projects real-time high resolution digital images that physicians can see during surgeries.

Dressed-up canines expected for Puppy Love 5K BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK There will likely be plenty of dogs sporting green attire when the St. Patrick’s Day-themed Puppy Love 5K comes to Lake Poway for the first time. The sixth annual fundraiser benefitting the Helen Woodward Animal Center will be 7 a.m. to noon Saturday, March 15, with free- and fee-based activities for humans of all ages and their canines. These include running and walking options for the 5K, many entertaining things to do in the event’s Wagging Wellness Village and a costume contest for dogs and their humans. “(Lake Poway) is an absolutely gorgeous site,” said Mindy Wright, public relations assistant manager for the center located in Rancho Santa Fe. When the previous 5K site ended up unavailable this year, she said a couple of people who work at the center suggested moving the event to Lake Poway. “It’s just beautiful and perfect (for us),” Wright said, adding it is too soon to know if moving the event farther inland is attracting newcomers from this area. “We’ve seen a lot of people (register) who did it last year and are returning, but there are a lot of new people (signing up) and a lot of families,” she said. “We are incredibly excited about our new location and grateful to the City of Poway, which has generously welcomed us,” said Regina Barrella, the center’s special events manager. The chip-timed run on the 5K course will start at 8 a.m.
This dog donned a leprechaun costume for the 2014 Puppy Love costume contest. Photo provided and the not chip-timed walk on the same course, at 8:20 a.m. Walkers can also go on a shorter route. Participants for either option will also receive a free dog entry, T-shirt, goodie bag and go to the St. Patrick’s Day themed “after paw-ty” in the Wagging Wellness Village. Runner and walker entry fees are $35 for adults and $15 for children (ages 3 to 12). There is a $10 discount for adults and $5 discount for children if on a team of six or more (use the team discount code “team6”). Online registration closes on
March 11 at www.animalcenter.org. For questions, call 858756-4117 ext. 350. The entry fee for the costume contest is $10 and people can register in advance or at the event. The contest starts at 10:20 a.m. and there will be prizes for the best “lucky dog” themed costume and for the best dog/owner pair costume. Contest entrants do not have to participate in the 5K, Wright said. As for the free activities that anyone can attend, they will be at the event’s Wagging Wellness Village. It will go from 7 a.m. to noon and include face painting, crafts, games, prizes, dozens of health and fitness booths, music, entertainment plus dog agility and trick training demonstrations. Parking for the event is $5 in a lot adjacent to the park and free from a nearby off-site lot, with free shuttle service available. Exact location was not available as of press time. Wright said organizers hope to raise “tens of thousands of dollars” through the event that last year attracted around 1,000 participants. She said proceeds will go toward the center’s 12 programs. In addition to adopting out more than 3,000 dogs and cats, it has therapy and educational programs that involve a multitude of other animals, from horses to guinea pigs, alpacas to sheep. The Helen Woodward Animal Center is a private, non-profit organization founded in 1972 and based in Rancho Santa Fe. It provides services for more than 57,000 people and thousands of animals each year through adoptions, educational programs and therapeutic programs on-site and throughout the community.

turn after a tough five to six years.” He said the region has the location everyone wants, but quality of life must also be there so people want to live, work and recreate here. Wood said Oceanside receives lots of interest from overseas companies, especially from Japan, east India South Korea and China, whose leadership want San Diego’s sunshine and beaches. To get these companies to commit to a relocation, Oceanside, San Marcos and three other cities around the 78 corridor are working together, instead of competing against one another, to make the area as appealing as possible. “It can’t be an individual issue ... we need to put aside our individual concerns,” Wood said. He also said the region’s traffic and transportation issues must be resolved since companies are less inclined to locate here if their employees have to spend a lot of time sitting on the freeway each day. All three said the business community needs to let them know when laws and policies are negatively affecting them so their respective entities can try to fix them. They also said it is important to let them know what things they are doing right.

addressing homeless issues. Kersey called the craft beer industry a San Diego success story. He said it is a national leader in an industry that did not exist here 10 to 15 years ago and said local companies in the cyber and unmanned aerial vehicles industries are also growing. “It speaks well to the quality of our work force and talent that is coming out,” Kersey said, adding this growth means San Diego can be known for more than its tourism industry. Hampering this growth is the city’s longneglected infrastructure, which Kersey said those considering a relocation here seriously look at, along with ease of doing business. A good economy and infrastructure, combined with its appealing climate, will make “San Diego the best place to do business,” but that requires the city to invest in itself, which he said it is on the path of doing. Kersey said downsides of relocating here are the expensive housing situation and cost of living. “We need to build more housing with reasonable fees,” he said, adding if not addressed by local government the situation will be worse in 25 to 30 years. Wood said the region is “finally on an up-

provides access to registered nurses and doctors for advice and diagnoses. And “MedCoach,” which sends medication reminders. Another way you could go is to purchase her a standard/mainstream smartphone that provides a built-in “Easy Mode” or “Simple” feature in the phone’s settings. This will let you convert the phone into a much simpler mode of operation, that provides larger, well labeled icons, to only commonly-used functions like the phone, camera, messaging, Internet, pictures, contacts and her favorite apps. Smartphones that offer the “Easy Mode” or “Simple” feature include the Samsung Galaxy phones, which are available through most cell phone carriers at prices typically ranging between $400 and $850 without a contract. Or, for a more budget-friendly option, the Huawei Vision 2 and Huawei Ascend Mate 2, which you can buy as an unlocked phone or through Consumer Cellular (consumercellular.com, 888-3455509) for $80 or $225 without a contract. Consumer Cellular is a top-rated no-contract service provider that also offers discounts to AARP members. A nice advantage of getting your mom a mainstream phone is that if she masters the Easy/Simple mode (or gets bored with it), and is ready to expand her skills, you can always switch the phone back to the standard operation mode exposing her to more options. You can also add any number of health and safety features to her phone, like what the Touch3 offers, by downloading their apps at greatcall.com/ medical-apps.

HEARING AID HELP
Never keep a hearing device unless youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re completely happy with it. Dr. David Illich, founder of Professional Hearing Associates in San Diego County, says people with hearing aids should ask themselves the following three questions: Do I love the physical ďŹ t? Do I love the ďŹ delity (overall sound quality) of the device? Do I love the beneďŹ t I have experienced in my life? WHAT IS AN AUDIOLOGIST? The aforementioned healthcare professionals are called audiologists. They are licensed experts specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss and balance disorders in adults and children. Think of an audiologist primarily as a hearing doctor. Many audiologists have completed a doctor of audiology (Au.D.) degree, though there are other doctoral degrees within the ďŹ eld, including Ph.D. and M.S. Audiologists typically offer the following services: s #OMPLETE HEARING EXAMS s &ITTING ADJUSTMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF HEARING AIDS s 4REATMENT FOR BALANCE DISORDERS AND RINGING IN THE EARS s Hearing and speech rehabilitation programs CHOOSING THE RIGHT AUDIOLOGIST Being able to choose the right audiologist for your hearing loss needs ďŹ rst starts with your ability to acknowledge that you are having an issue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The initial concerns usually come from family members commenting on your listening skills or noticing that the TV is up a little louder,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. Heather Cones, audiologist with Professional Hearing Associates in San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North County. David Illich, Au.D., Doctor of Audiology, founded Professional Hearing Associates in 1984 (www.hearinginfo.net). He recommends ďŹ nding an audiologist you feel comfortable with on a personal and professional level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like eyeglasses where you pop on a new pair and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re set,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working by your SIDE YEAR AFTER YEAR TO MAKE SURE YOUR HEARING NEEDS ARE BEING MET AND EXCEEDED 4HIS IS A JOURNEY v

PROCESS OF PERSONALIZATION A 2009 Consumer Reports study found that 66 percent of hearing aids in the United States are misďŹ t.

Opinion EDITORIAL REBUTTAL
Why merging panels in RB is a bad idea By Jerry P. Sack
A
s a former member of the Rancho Bernardo Community Council (RBCC), I disagree with the Feb. 19 editorial regarding merging the RBCC and the Rancho Bernardo Planning Board. Of all the organizations I have ever been part of, the RBCC has been by far the most productive. The RBCC is able to make things happen in Rancho Bernardo, to bring change, growth and quality-of-life issues that otherwise wouldn’t happen (ie: annual Chalk It Up event, Patriotic Pet Contest, CPR training and the safety fair). As a member of the RBCC’s Public Safety Committee, we worked closely with firefighters and police officers to identify many safety issues (ie: additional crosswalks, stop signs, safety signs, street lighting, trail markers on the hiking trails, flood control channels, CPR training, introduction to an annual safety fair, avoiding senior scams, emergency and disaster planning). The RBCC’s monthly agenda is always full and on occasion runs over the scheduled time in order to professionally address questions and concerns. Behind the scenes, the RBCC members work countless hours addressing issues to bring forward to the RBCC for a vote to take action or implement. It is interesting that the editor pushed for the merger of the RBCC and the planning board, but not the merger of any of the other 50 or 60 volunteer organizations throughout Rancho Bernardo. As the old saying goes; “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it.” Leave the professional and productive Rancho Bernardo Community Council as is, a stand-alone, productive organization. Sack is a Rancho Bernardo resident.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Poway High produces quality show The intent of this letter is to congratulate all involved at Poway High School for their time, talent and expertise in order to provide our community with the production of the musical “All Shook Up,” which I and my family attended. The performers demonstrated excellent vocal talents, dancing abilities, outstanding verbal acting skills, choreography and stage crew responses. I found it necessary to remind myself that I was witnessing and enjoying the talents of high school students, not adults with many years of experience performing on stage. I was in awe of the orchestra’s performance. Of course, as a parent and grandparent of Poway High students, I have attended may sports events and never cease to be in awe of the abilities of the members of our high school band. How fortunate our community is to be able to enjoy the many talented young people who are provided the opportunity to learn and develop their skills.

Why not get back taxes from Sharpton? It has been brought to the American taxpayer’s attention that Al Sharpton owes the U.S. government
$4.5 million in back taxes. Maybe more. I called Scott Peters’ office on Feb. 6 and asked why nothing is being done about this delinquency, especially since Sharpton had received $22 million to have organized the recent Ferguson and New York riots. I was told by one staffer that there is no such bill to go after Sharpton’s back taxes. Absolutely amazing! I assured the lady that if it were anybody other than Obama’s personal friend who has visited the White House over 80 times in the past three months regarding “race problems in America,” someone in the White House would find the appropriate bill to take swift action accordingly. She assured me that Mr. Peters would “see to it.” I asked for a confirmation in writing as to when he actually will have taken action in this matter. As of this writing I have received no such confirma-
tion in writing or otherwise. However, I was told by another staffer that Mr. Peters is very busy but he will take care of the problem “perhaps in a week or so.” I did have to give Peters’ office my personal contact information all over again “in case we didn’t have it down correctly.” I’m won’t be holding my breath.

Columnist lacks knowlege of PTSD There are two things I take umbrage with from Amy Roost’s column of Feb 19. The first is related to her comment on the military industrial complex. Let’s get into the 21st century. This may have been true during the Vietnam War era; it is not true today. If it did, our
military budgets would not have been shrinking over the last few decades. These wars in the Middle East are mainly driven by politics. The second thing that bothers me is her lack of knowledge when it comes to PTSD. Unless you have spoken directly with Senator McCain about what he experienced during his captivity as a POW, do not presume to know how this experience affected him or how it affects other veterans. You need to go to the nearest VA hospital and talk to the doctors, nurses, and caregivers who work to help patients deal with it day in and day out. Better yet, talk to the patients who deal with it on a daily basis. It’s important to know more about PTSD before calling certain decisions “PTSD fueled protestations.”

ary does a month pass without a reminder that the leadership vacuum at Poway Unified School District is reaching crisis proportions. The mass resignation of the board of directors of the foundation supporting Midland Elementary School (on the heels of the resignation of the PTA president and the departure of a third of the teaching staff) is yet another symptom of inept district leadership who consistently fail to solve problems at manageable levels. Unfortunately, the decay is negatively affecting classroom performance in spite of PUSD’s many dedicated and highly competent teachers. Test scores at Midland have dropped 10 percent during the past year. Similar results are surfacing elsewhere in the district. The billion dollar bond issue and its aftermath have taught significant lessons. Only one incumbent from three years ago remains on the board. Mr. Patapow would also likely have been an election casualty in 2012 had the news about the bond been released in time for another nonincumbent to enter the race. Most ironic about the bond fiasco is that the person who orchestrated it (District Superintendent John Collins) not only survived, but received contract extensions with increased benefits — all while throwing the board members who padded his contract under the bus. Even though most Powegians are bond issueweary, it is important we remember the pro-
R
Dick Lyles GET REAL cesses that transpired before and after the bond passage, because similar processes and attitudes are still at work. They are undermining the district’s historical claim to excellence. The primary reason con artists succeed is that their victims don’t like to admit they were duped. I’m not making excuses for the previous school board, because they allowed themselves to be duped, but they were duped. More recently, board members were similarly duped by Dr. Collins and senior staff who told them nothing had changed regarding how teachers could teach and celebrate Thanksgiving. Listening to senior staff (as opposed to teachers who knew and told the real story) was like listening to President Obama say, “If you like your doctor and your health plan you can keep it.” Senior district staff knew it wasn’t true, yet they all voiced the party line. Most people are unaware of the severity and scope of the district’s problems because most parental interactions with PUSD are limited
to the classroom. Rather than give cursory treatment to these major problems in a single column, in the coming weeks and months I will devote separate columns to the following issues to foster a dialogue leading to permanent solutions. Poor leadership tops the list of problems. Dr. Collins’ leadership style stifles both internal and external communication, shackles problem solving efforts, and is killing morale. The “whisper factor” among professionals in the district is overwhelming. Teacher resentment toward the district hierarchy is at an all-time high. Race relations comes next. Race relations in the district have never been great. But the handling of the Chris Garnier case at Painted Rock Elementary School was abysmal. A full investigation into district practices in regard to race should be initiated by higher investigative authority immediately. Next on the list is community relations. It is a disaster and getting worse. Finally is the lack of a succession plan for senior staff. Prior boards hesitated to replace Dr. Collins because no other members of his senior team are qualified to replace him. Weak teams never produce strong results. More on each topic in future columns. Lyles, a Poway resident, is a business/management consultant and best-selling author. Reader comments, through letters to the editor or online at pomeradonews.com, are encouraged.
State tax overhaul plan has potential
arely does a freshman state senator propose anything substantial during his or her first few days in office. But Robert Herzberg, elected last fall from a safe Democratic district in the San Fernando Valley portion of Los Angeles, is hardly a typical newbie. Hertzberg, speaker of the state Assembly from 2000-2002 and an advisor to both former Govs. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Gray Davis for several years after that, has now taken on one of the toughest, most complex topics any legislator can. He wants to change California’s entire tax system, and he just might pull it off. Hertzberg expects his plan, known as SB8, will take at least two years before coming to any floor vote, figuring it will probably undergo major changes in the process. But here are the basics: This system would reduce income taxes across the board, while still keeping “progressive” features like having those with higher incomes pay a larger percentage of it as tax. The minimum wage would rise, by a yet-undetermined amount. Business would get some tax breaks, designed to encourage job creation. More than making up for these revenue losses would be a new sales tax on services (educa-
Thomas Elias SOCAL FOCUS tion and health care to be exempt). So movie tickets, legal work, accounting and labor on auto body repairs would be taxed. It’s still uncertain how this might apply to the Internet and at what level businesses would be eligible for new tax incentives. Of course, any sales tax is regressive, hitting those with low incomes harder than the rich. It’s not certain whether the reduced income tax and a higher minimum wage could compensate for this. The plan is not Hertzberg’s brainchild alone. It stems from his work with an outfit called the Think Long Committee, whose membership has included Google executive Eric Schmidt, movie executive Terry Semel, former Republican state Treasurer Matt Fong, Los Angeles businessman and philanthropist Eli Broad,
ex-Gov. Davis, former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice and former state Chief Justice Ron George, among others. The group is funded by billionaire Nicolas Berggruen. “We’re aiming for $10 billion a year in new money from this plan,” Hertzberg said in an interview. “We’ll start with what’s now in my bill, and modify it to try to have it make sense if people have problems with it. It could even end up as a ballot initiative. But we need this to help both our kids and businesses in this state.” Hertzberg points to the ongoing controversy over tuition at the University of California and the California State University system as one example of how the existing tax system harms young people in California. “We need a new philosophy of government,” Hertzberg said in one essay on his tax plan. “California has long been known as the land of opportunity, but for too many of its residents the future is receding. Inequality continues to rise… Something more is needed.

Entertainment 'God Committee' set to open Friday at PowPAC BY EMILY SORENSEN Do you think you could play God when it comes to choosing who lives and who dies? PowPAC, Powayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Community Theatre, is asking that question to audiences with its new drama â&#x20AC;&#x153;God Committee,â&#x20AC;? which opens 8 p.m. Friday at 13250 Poway Road in the Lively Center and runs for four weekends, closing Sunday, March 29. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Tickets are available on-line at www. powpac.org, and are $20 general admission; $17 for students, seniors and active duty military. There is a $1.50 handling charge per ticket purchased online. The
price for tickets purchased at the door is slightly higher. Additionally, there is a $2 surcharge for opening night, which includes a post-performance reception with the cast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a show that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done very often,â&#x20AC;? said director Jay Mower. â&#x20AC;&#x153;God Committee,â&#x20AC;? written by Mark St. Germain, takes place in the conference room of a fictional hospital where seven people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; four doctors, a registered nurse, a Catholic priest who is also a lawyer and a disabled social worker â&#x20AC;&#x201D; meet to decide which of three patients will receive a heart that is currently being couriered through heavy downtown traffic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s literally a life or death decision,â&#x20AC;? said Mower. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are many factors that are considered, like age. One pa-
tient has already had a heart transplant which they rejected. Another young manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father has promised to donate $75 million to the hospital.â&#x20AC;? Mower described the show as â&#x20AC;&#x153;heavy,â&#x20AC;? but said it was because this was real life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe the purpose of theater is always to make people laugh,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been successful if I make people think.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;God Committeeâ&#x20AC;? features seven characters, all of whom are being played by experienced theater actors, said Mower, ranging in age from being in their 20s to in their 70s. The cast includes Brandon Kaye Thomas as Dr. Kierra Banks; Katharine Rex as Nella Larkin, R.N.; Michael ScaSEE THEATRE, Page B20

The latest performance of the Rancho Bernardo Librar y’s jazz concert series will be a little unique, thanks to Danish jazz singer Sinne Eeg. Eeg will join San Diego jazz group the Peter Sprague Trio to perform a concert from 6:15 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 11 at the Rancho Bernardo library, 17110 Bernardo Center Drive. The concert is free and open to the public. Donations are requested for musician compensation. This is the first time the jazz and classical chamber concer ts have had a foreign touring artist perform, said Donald Bunin, who is the organizer of the jazz concert series. “(Eeg) is a fantastic singer, a great jazz singer,” said jazz guitarist Peter Sprague. “She’s incredible.” Sprague and Eeg have per formed together several times previously, after Sprague heard her music and fell in love with her singing. “I convinced her to come down from Los Angeles and perform with me,” said Sprague. Sprague was encouraged to listen to Eeg’s music by Butch Lacy, a San Diego jazz musician and mentor to Sprague who moved to Denmark in 1982. Rounding out the Peter Sprague Trio are bassist Gunnar Biggs and drummer Duncan Moore, who will also be per forming with Sprague and Eeg at the library concert. Eeg is considered the leading Danish jazz vocalist and has won several Danish music awards.
Danish jazz singer Sinne Eeg will perform with San Diegobased jazz guitarist Peter Sprague at the RB library on March 11. She has released several award-winning albums. Her latest, “Face the Music,” was released in 2014, and features her original music as well as a handful of select jazz standards like “What a Little Moonlight Can Do.” “‘Face the Music’ is a picture of who I am today as a musician. I have focused on spontaneity, improvisation and the pure joy of making music. When per forming in front of a live audience, you often ‘forget yourself” and throw away timidity and vanity. For me, that is where the magic in music emerges. This is the feeling that the band and I have attempted to bring with us to the recording studio when we made ‘Face the Music,’” Eeg said in a press release. Sprague said the concer t will feature some of his original music, several
jazz standards and some of Eeg’s original music as well. “We have a unique body of music with her,” said Sprague. “There’s a lot of stuf f I haven’t played except with her. She’s ver y special, she has a wonderful presence.” The librar y concer t is par t of a two-week U.S. tour for Eeg, who will be touring in Sweden in April and Japan and China in May. Sprague and his trio have also been busy touring, recently retur ning from performing with Diane Reeds at the Lincoln Center as well as several concer ts in Connecticut and Florida. He also recently per for med with Billy Childs in several concerts, including the Portland Jazz Festival. “I’ve been traveling a lot,” said Sprague.

Ask the 2015
I AM CONSIDERING SELLING MY HOME. WHAT SHOULD BE MY FIRST STEP? If you are considering selling your home, it is a good idea to get ahead of the late spring and summer inventory. January and February are very desirable months to sell your home, as people are beginning to unwind from the holidays and think about the year ahead. The ďŹ rst step is sitting down with a few top realtors to discuss how they will market your home and review statistics that will help provide you a target price for selling your home. Make sure to choose an agent that is experienced in the area where you live and one that provides data to determine a realistic sales price. Be sure they have recent sales history and local data to back up your asking price. The agent you choose will be someone you will be working with very closely to sell one of your largest assets, so it is very important to choose a respected Realtor you know is honest and will work hard on the common goal of selling your home. Be sure to ask the agent for testimonials from past clients as well as their list of recent sales. A good agent will work diligently to get you top dollar for your home and make the process as stress-free as possible while working hard to meet your timeframes and moving dates.
Along with providing data from comparable sales in your area, the agent should also cover how they will market your home and make suggestions on preparing your home for sale. Make sure your agent uses all the latest technological tools to expose your home to as many potential buyers as possible. Twilight photos and virtual tours are important as well as targeting buyers looking for a home in your price range with the amenities your home offers. When your home is on the market, your agent should share feedback with you from all showings. They should also share all marketing strategies with you and the results of the marketing. Choosing the right agent is the most important step when selling. If you are considering selling your home, Karen Pado provides a conďŹ dential, free market analysis to help you make an informed decision about selling. Karen Pado can be reached at 858-967-5784 or visit her website at www.KarenPado.com
The Windermere Homes & Estates Difference Windermere Homes & Estates Expects to Hit $1 Billion in Sales in 2015
The momentum the company gained within 18 months of their grand opening has been incredible; Windermere Homes & Estates now has over 200 agents, 5 opened ofďŹ ces and 2 under construction with more locations on the way.

The outstanding reputations of Brian and Rich along with the upscale, high tech ofďŹ ces, have contributed to the company attracting top agents in all areas they have opened in. While they are continuing to grow at a fast pace, both Brian and Rich maintain their original commitment to put agents ďŹ rst. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This tremendous growth is amazing but we aren`t taking our eye off the

The idea of owning a non-corporate and agent-centric firm fueled our desire to get back to basics and create a company that puts agents first.
When Windermere Homes & Estates opened their doors in July of 2013, co-owners Brian Gooding and Rich Johnson agreed that the main focus of the company would be keeping the culture â&#x20AC;&#x153;agent-centeredâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;familyorientedâ&#x20AC;?. By putting relationships before sales quotas, Brian and Rich knew that Windermere Homes & Estates would create an environment that fueled success and innovation.

trends & events Zenspa celebrates 5 years of dedicated service to San Diego residents The founders of Zenspa all had backgrounds in marketing, finance and health care, and five years ago they decided to put it all together to see what would happen. Five years later, Zenspa is still going strong as a wellness business in San Diego. Several worked in corporate settings for quite a while before turning to holistic medicine, both as a way of life and also as a way to help others. Many would consistently complain about chronic back pain, fatigue, and neck and shoulder pain from sitting at desks for hours, lack of sleep and poor circulation. At that time, massage was the perfect solution before and after work-related travel or stressful projects. In fact, massage provided so much relief and focus that it changed what they wanted to do for a living. The group then delved into the wellness industry, getting the necessary education and apprenticeship hours, as a foundation for a solid business and in the hopes of having a positive impact. “We are convinced that positive touch – whether in the form of massage, other body treatments, or facial services – is an effective way to treat and manage the stress that is the root cause of so many modern-day ills,” said Zenspa management. Several reasons have made Zenspa sustainable the past five years. “First and foremost, our clients are great,” they said. “They’ve been the reason for our continued success and staying power. Secondly, we truly understand our clients’ stressful lifestyles and the many challenges they face on a daily basis – juggling work, finances, family and the rest. Our staff truly understands the importance of great customer service, and each Zenspa client is treated as a member of our extended family. Lastly, we strive to remain affordable. We understand that most people today have great financial responsibilities. We keep our prices at a more than reasonable level so that our clients can benefit from muchneeded therapeutic services as often as they need to. “All the while, we continue to invest in the latest and most effective technology, products, and training. This allows us to maintain a level of quality that is unsurpassed.” All this month, all customers at Zenspa will receive a gift in the form of a discount or add-on and the business will be serving refreshments each weekend. Some lucky winners will win a free Epicuren treatment or 60-minute full body massage. One of the most popular treatments Zenspa offers are facials – “an elevated experience with remarkable results.” Looking ahead, everyone at Zenspa is excited to see what the next five years will bring. “We will continue to do what we do best - great personalized customer service and quality offerings at an affordable price. Our goal is to expand our vision and provide quality services both on-site and mobile throughout San Diego and surrounding areas.”

saving? Good deeds? Supportive family? Youth? Future potential? Money? This play will make you think about these issues and hopefully develop an improved understanding, and added empathy and respect, for the medical professionals faced with such difficult life and death decisions on a daily basis.

While a healthy lifestyle can certainly help you get the body you always wanted, the benefits extend well beyond your appearance, say experts. “Adopting a healthy lifestyle offers more than just weight loss alone; it can also promote your overall health and reduce your risk of chronic diseases, like diabetes, heart disease, stroke and even some types of cancer,” says registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) and Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics spokesperson, Ximena Jimenez. “Eating right and staying active is an investment in a high-quality life.” In time for National Nutrition Month, Jimenez is offering a few ways you can “Bite into a Healthy Lifestyle.” s -AKE )NFORMED &OOD #HOICES !

March is National Nutrition Month: Tips to Recharge Your Resolutions
16 WEEKS AFTER Second CoolSculpting® Session
CoolSculpt is an amazing technology, developed by some of the field’s greatest minds out of Harvard University, that freezes fat but the skin is preserved. These fat cells are then slowly absorbed and metabolized. This is an effective and straightforward procedure. No anesthesia is needed, as there is virtually no discomfort, and a person can go right back to life or work from the procedure.
Efficiency: The workout style is extremely efficient & requires only two 20-minute workouts per week to see real results. Flexible scheduling is available to accommodate busy work & lifestyles. Services: The Change Fitness offers a variety of services that are customized to accommodate specific physical limitations or restrictions. Services Include:

Answer Emery's call for medical pot centers This is regarding Bob Emery’s Feb. 26 column on medical marijuana. My wife began teaching in Escondido’s Hidden Valley Middle school in 1974. That is where I first met Bob Emer y. As he led Poway to incorporate and become the “City in the Country” he was recognized as a leader who identified problems and in his uniquely blunt style would fight for the correct resolution. Now, to his credit, he continues to do that right up to the end of his life. My wife, Rita, also had cancer. She passed away 11 years ago. Her chemo treatments had horrible side effects causing intense pain, nausea, hair loss and lack of energy. Her quality of life was nil. There is no doubt that had medical marijuana been legally available she would have tried it. She would have done anything to gain relief from her agony. Bob has identified the problem. Access to a certified medical dispensary is unavailable in North County. Here, there is no compassion for the citizen whether terminally ill
or battling to recover from the ravages of the disease. I would call on the new mayor and other Poway leaders to have the debate. Answer Bob’s call to separate the myth and hysteria from the scientific facts and if fact and science wins the debate then let Poway lead the state in designing and opening a world class dispensary. This would be a fitting tribute in honor of Poway’s first mayor. Well done, Bob.You are my hero and a hero to most who have known you.

PREP WRESTLING: CIF STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS PREVIEW
CHASING CLOVIS ... AGAIN Titans look to halt Cougars' state-title run at four
BY MICHAEL BOWER Liam Sorahan plans to do a lot of stretching and cleaning at Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield, site of the CIF State Wrestling Championships. The 222-pound Poway High senior enters the tournament undefeated and ranked No. 1 in the state. But he almost wishes he would have lost once, just so he wouldn’t have to stick with a few of his tedious superstitions. Sorahan stretches his hamstrings before every match — holding the stretch one second for every win he has this season (42). He also has a thing about trash. If he sees a water bottle left behind, he has to pick it up and throw it away. “I know these are weird and that none of it makes sense,” said Sorahan, who captured his first San Diego Section Masters title Saturday. “And I know that I am not winning because of these. But now I have to do all this stuff. It started off OK for the first six matches, but at this point of the season it is like a chore.” Sorahan is one of 15 local wrestlers that will compete in the state tournament Friday and Saturday. Thirteen of those 15 are from Poway and the other two — Chasen Blair and Corbin Grenowich — are from Rancho Bernardo. The Titans, ranked No. 9 in the nation and No. 3 in the state, are once again chasing fourtime defending champion Clovis. The Cougars

It took 18 years, but the Rancho Bernardo High girls basketball team is headed back to a San Diego Section championship game. The No. 4 Broncos topped No. 1 Mira Mesa 40-31 Tuesday night in the Division III semifinals, advancing to their first section title game since now athletic director Peggy Brose led the program to a championship in 1997. The Broncos (13-12) will face No. 3 Kearny for the Division III title Friday at 3:07 p.m. at the University of San Diego. The two have not met this season, but played in the opening round of the Division III playoffs last year. The Broncos won 43-38. The last few years have been quite a turnaround for the Rancho Bernardo program, which just two years ago went 6-20. But Broncos coach Kai Harris has been building for a moment like this since taking over in 2012. Last season was the breakout year, as Rancho Bernardo went 13-12 and won its first playoff game since 2004. The Broncos got to the semifinals and fell to La Jolla 57-38. This time Rancho Bernardo wasn’t denied and will play for a championship on Friday. **** Boys basketball: Poway had to replace four starters from last season, but still found a way to get to their first section semifinal since 1998.

Rancho Bernardo (18-14) pulled even 8-8 when Walker converted a power-play goal with 2:03 left in the fourth quarter. On the last possession of regulation play, Carley Drinco had a steal for No. 3 Granite Hills (16-15) to force overtime. The Broncos, who were ousted in the semifinals the previous two seasons, persevered to claim their first title since they won the 2003 crown behind future international standout Tanya Gandy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We start slow a lot of time,â&#x20AC;? Parkinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then in the fourth quarter, we just kick in and the fight comes out.â&#x20AC;? The Eagles fell despite 19 saves by Mia Harris. Riley Jo Agerbeek and Jo Meyer each had three goals to spearhead their attack. Granite Hills, which held a 6-3 halftime lead, was denied in the finals for the second straight year.

even imagine being part of that class right now.â&#x20AC;? Doyle is in a class of his own in many areas on the mat, including his pre-match warm-up routine. He is about as calm as one can be before going into battle. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find him blaring music in his ears or doing any kind of dancing to pump himself up. He will lightly bounce around to stay warm, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the calm before the storm,â&#x20AC;? Doyle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am really relaxed, but at the same time focused. I am thinking about what I can do and what the other guy can do. I am calm, but ready to wrestle at the same time.â&#x20AC;? Calm. Grounded. Humble. Those are three words that fit Doyle perfectly. He credits his father, Dan Doyle, SEE DOYLE, Page B33

Breaking Poway High School wrestling records is no easy task. The program has been elite in the state for over 30 years and the list of talented grapplers to wear the green singlet is a long one. But Colt Doyle is in position to put some fresh ink in that tough-to-crack record book after Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s San Diego Section Masters Championships at El Centro Southwest High. The 160-pound senior claimed his 45th straight victory with an 8-2 decision over Hooverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kenneth Moore in the Masters final. Doyle is two straight wins shy of breaking the school record of 46 set by Todd Schavrien in 2005-2006. Doyleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s streak started at the state tournament last year, where he went 5-0 en route to the 162-pound championship. He is 40-0 this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think losing to Alexander Graves (of San Marcos)
last year in the Masters final really motivated me,â&#x20AC;? said Doyle, who fell in double overtime to Graves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was the No. 1 kid in the state at the time and that definitely got me motivated for the state tournament.â&#x20AC;? And then some. Doyle has not lost since. And he could join legendary Poway wrestlers Brody Barrios and Paul Baird as the only Titans to capture two state championships. Barrios did it in 1999 and 2000, while Baird did it in 2002 and 2003. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That would be amazing,â&#x20AC;? Doyle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you talk about great wrestlers at Poway those are the guys that I think of. Growing up you hear all the stories that coach (Wayne) Branstetter tells about them and what they did extra and how much work they put in. I cannot

Local club wins state title The Arsenal FC San Diego under-10 girls soccer team captured its first state championship on Feb. 22 in San Bernardino. The soccer club, located in 4S Ranch, competed against the top 43 teams in Southern California in the President’s Division of the annual State Cup tournament. Arsenal defeated the Strikers FC from Orange County in penalty kicks to win the championship. “I knew this team was special and headed towards a championship early in the season,” coach Jose Ocampo said. “The girls are a talented bunch, and they have worked hard this season to get to this place.” Arsenal and the Strikers were tied 1-1 at
the end of regulation. A 10-minute overtime resulted in no scores so the game went to penalty kicks. Arsenal buried four PKs to the Strikers’ three. It was a thrilling finish to what was an exciting run through the tournament for Arsenal. The team consists of players from 4S Ranch, Carlsbad, Escondido and Scripps Ranch. Players that earned the title were: Allie Anderson, Nicole Anderson, Esha Gupta, Payton Jenkins, Molly McCarthy, Maquena O’Callaghan, Eva Schreiber, Catherine Schreiber, Emily Separovich and Maggie Taitano.

“I am excited for that opportunity,” Sorahan said. “I can see it coming down to me and Nevills. I can see it coming down to a big match.” Blair will make his first appearance at the state championships. The 182-pound sophomore avenged two defeats to Poway’s Andrew Tausch earlier with a 3-0 win in the Masters final. Blair is the first Bronco to win a Masters title since Evan McKirdy and Zach Merrit both did in 2011. Grenowich will also be making his debut at

and his older brother, Cody Doyle, for his success. Dan wrestled in high school and college. Cody wrestled at Poway, graduating in 2014. “If it wasn’t for my brother or dad, I wouldn’t be what I am today,” Colt said, adding that the two are his at-home coaches. “They helped me along the way in every way possible. They have been there for me every step of this journey.” The high school portion of his journey is coming to an end. Friday and Saturday’s state championships inside of Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield is all he has left.
Doyle, who is ranked No. 1 in the state, knows ending his prep career with a second straight title won’t be easy. Last year he was unknown. This year he has a bullseye on his back. “Going in undefeated and as the defending state champion, if I was another kid looking at me, I would think this is my opportunity to beat him,” Doyle said. “So, I can’t take anyone for granted. It is going to be a fight regardless of who the kid is.” And you can bet Doyle will be ready. And maybe history will be made.

that would hold off cuts in the income and corporate taxes until new sales levies bring in enough money to give lowincome workers earned-income tax credits similar to what the federal tax system provides. And he says he will not change parts of the plan earmarking the new $10 billion for schools, colleges, infrastructure including road repairs and $2 billion for that earned income tax credit. “The revolutionary thing about this is that we would tax services for the first time,” he said. “And that we give the new money to cities, counties, community colleges, school districts, universities and the low income.” Hertzberg expects this plan to provoke “the longest discussion of the next two years.” Since he chairs the Senate com-
mittee in charge of state and local governance, taxes and finance, “I can call all the hearings on it I want, and I will.” So far, there are few supporters or opponents. But both business and labor groups, along with leading Democratic and Republican legislators say they look forward to the talk and the hearings. The twin questions yet to be answered: Will this all be mere talk? And should it ever amount to anything more? Stay tuned.

Homes Coldwell Banker again helps RB High Library For the ninth consecutive year, 24 independent sales associates from Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s Rancho Bernardo office have donated funds to the Rancho Bernardo High School Friends of the Library. This year’s funds are being used toward hiring a parttime research assistant, buying print/online resources, and extending library hours before and after school. The brokerage has raised approximately $5,000 over the last nine years for Friends of the Library. “Much of Friends of the Library’s financial contribution to the library is made possible through the unwavering contributions of more than $600 each year from Rancho Bernardo Coldwell Banker’s generous agents,” wrote Richard Mason, founder, past president and corporate relations chair of the Rancho Bernardo High School Friends of the Library. Behind the effort is Gwen Thompson, an independent sales associate at Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s Rancho Bernardo office, who coordinates the annual fundraising. “In 2013 alone, there were 171,000 visits to the library, which is almost 80 per student,” she said. “With the significant funding cuts imposed by the school system, we knew

Agents are nominated based on customer service, communication, finding the right home, integrity, negotiations, marketing skills, market knowledge, closing preparation, and overall satisfaction.
