BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Teenagers in Spain have more independence, while their counterparts in Rancho Bernardo are

encouraged to have a stronger school spirit, according to students participating in a cultural exchange program that continues through next week.

From Aug. 22 to Sept. 9, Rancho Bernardo High School families are hosting 17 students from Urdaneta School, a semi-private

preschool-to-12th-grade campus in Bilbao, Spain. It is the second half of a program that from June 13 to 30 had the RB students staying with their guests’ families while visiting Bilbao and Barcelona.

PH steps up as major Poway Days sponsor Parade, festival will be held Sept. 9

BY STEVE DREYER Palomar Health has been named the gold-level sponsor of next month’s Poway Days celebration.

Event chairman Ted Dawson said the public health district is contributing money toward event expenses.

The district owns and operates Palomar Medical Center in Escondido, Palomar Medical Center Poway (formerly Pomerado Hospital), Villa Pomerado and other related facilities in North County.

Poway Days begins Saturday, Sept. 9 with the 53rd annual Poway Days Parade starting at 9 a.m. along Poway Road. The parade, expected to draw about 100 entries and all five local high school marching bands, will be followed by the

Community Day Festival at Community Park, running from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Other events in September include the inaugural SeptemberFest on Saturday, Sept. 16 at Community Park, the Rodeo Poker Ride, Hike & Bike on Sunday, Sept. 17 and the 45th annual Poway Rodeo on Friday, Sept. 22 and Saturday, Sept. 23.

Information on the parade, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Poway-Scripps, can be found at powaydaysparade.org.

Details regarding the Community Day Festival and SeptemberFest can be found at powaydays.com, while poker ride and rodeo details are at powayrodeo.com.

Dawson said several

other businesses have stepped up to finance activities.

Walmart is contributing to be a bronze-level sponsor. Toyota of Poway is paying to sponsor the Garden Stage at the Community Day Festival, while Bertrand’s Music chipped in funds to sponsor a battle of the bands at the festival.

Cornerstone Mortgage is sponsoring the “Fish Tank” competition. The event will feature youngsters in two age categories pitching their inventive ideas to a panel of savvy judges and investors.

Tax-deductible donations to help underwrite the costs of the Poway Days celebration can be sent to Poway Days, 12366 Poway Road, Poway, CA 92064.

PUSD holding meetings on by-district elections First meeting is 3:30 p.m. Thursday

BY EMILY SORENSEN The Poway Unified School District is holding four public hearings for the planning of its new by-district elections for trustees serving on the Board of Education.

The first meeting will be held at 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 31, with three additional meetings being held at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 14, Thursday, Oct. 12 and Thursday, Nov. 9. All four meetings will be held at the district office, 13250 Avenue of Science in Carmel Mountain Ranch.

The meeting on Thursday will be a stand-alone public hearing, while the following three public hearings will be part of the monthly board meetings.

The Thursday afternoon meeting will last for a maximum of two hours to accommodate another previously-scheduled event in the space.

The district is moving from at-large voting to by-district elections, which will take effect in 2018. With this change, voters will go from voting on all seats to voting on the seat represented by the district they live in, which will be represented by a single

member of the board. There will be five voting districts within the PUSD. PUSD is one of more than 150 school districts in California who, along with over 60 cities, including the City of Poway. The City of San Diego already does by-district elections.

This change is to bring the district into compliance with the California Voting Rights Act of 2001. The district was one of many to receive a receipt of demand under this act, which means it has to convert to by-district elections or risk facing a lawsuit.

The meetings are intended to gather public input about how the district maps should be drawn, drafting maps of those proposed areas and to discuss the proposed sequence of elections.

A spokesperson for the district said that the PUSD has not yet hired a demographer (who will help design the voting districts) but is looking to do so soon. The district must adopt a resolution establishing the districts and changing the election method by Nov. 9. After board approval, the resolution will go to the county committee on school district organization for approval.

Former Powegian earns a national lifetime achievement award

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK A former Powegian has earned a national lifetime achievement award from the American Chemical Society for her outstanding accomplishments and contributions to science, her profession and ACS. “It’s very exciting,” said Tammy Dwyer, a University of San Diego chemistry professor who has lived in Sabre Springs since 1996 with her husband, Brian, and their two now-grown children.

Dwyer was chosen to be one of 65 ACS Fellows for 2017 from among the society’s 157,000-plus members. It is the world’s largest scientific society.

The award ceremony was held on Aug. 21 in Washington, D.C. She said her selection “gives me confidence that I’m doing the right kinds of things in the classroom and in the lab with students and faculty, and that it can have an impact. I feel very fortunate, blessed and honored to receive the award.”

Dwyer said fewer than 1,000 ACS members have been chosen for the lifetime achievement award since it was first awarded in 2008. She said for years the society presented many specific awards for various accomplishments in science, but it started the lifetime award after the membership realized there was nothing to recognize those who have excelled in science and service to the organization.

The daughter of Rosalie Doyle-Jeane (now living in El Cajon) and the late George Doyle said her family moved to Poway in 1965 when she was preschool-age. She attended Garden Road Elementary, Meadowbrook Middle School and Mt. Carmel High School, where she graduated in 1979. Dwyer said her family was very active in the

Poway community, including her sister, Raelene, and brother, Dale.

It was during her years at Mt. Carmel that Dwyer said she decided to pursue a career in science. She credited her father for encouraging her since childhood to explore her interests in science and her teachers for furthering those pursuits.

She said this included Bob Bjorkquist, her junior year chemistry teacher. “He was fabulous,” Dwyer said. “The way he taught had substance to it.”

Dwyer recalled that because the students did not have calculators until late in the year, Bjorkquist taught them how to do complicated calculations on a slide rule.

Professionals Who Know and Care Most lenders offer the same rates and programs. What makes the difference?

She also enjoyed the chemical Jeopardy game he created, based on the television game show. “I just thought it was so much fun,” Dwyer said.

For college she went to California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, where the first-generation college graduate earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry. Dwyer said during freshman orientation the students were told they would likely switch their major out of the chemistry department, but every experiment she conducted and the “fabulous faculty put the wind in my sails” to continue.

It was her positive interactions with the faculty that inspired her to teach at the university level, Dwyer said.

She went on to earn a master’s and doctorate from UC San Diego. During her graduate years Dwyer joined a research group that was studying small organic molecules and conducting research using nuclear magnetic resonance. Her post-graduate work was done at UC Berkeley, where she continued to study DNA. After teaching at Cal State San Marcos for two years, she joined the University of San Diego faculty in 1994. Since then, she has led efforts to make USD and its chemistry department a leader in undergraduate research and completed extensive research on the structure of DNA. As chair of USD’s chemistry and biochemistry department for 13 of the past 16 years, Dwyer’s “signature achievement” was leading its successful application for a prestigious $500,000 Department Development Award from the Research Corporation for Science Advancement, said Noelle Norton, dean of USD’s College of Arts and Sciences.

Due to matching USD funds, the award resulted in $1.1 million to build capacity and

infrastructure in support of undergraduate research and allowed the department to institute a research requirement for each undergraduate student while maintaining excellence in teaching.

“This (ACS lifetime) award is a tribute to the rise of her department’s academic profile, the success of its students and her outstanding research,” Norton said.

“I love teaching and absolutely love working with students,” Dwyer said. “I love the ‘ah-ha’ moments, not only when they are studying, but in life. I love being the facilitator for other students.”

As for the growth USD’s chemistry department has gained under her leadership, Dwyer said she is proud of what has been achieved in many ways.

“It took on a national reputation; people know about us now, we’re on the map nationally,” she said. In the mid-1990s she said the department typically had seven to 10 majors graduate each year. Last year it had 42 and this year is likely to have 63. The faculty was mostly male, but now there are 14 faculty members, with the fifth female tenure track member recently hired.

Dwyer said that is important, especially with more female than male chemistry majors. She recalled how during her undergraduate years she never had a female chemistry professor.

Another “hallmark” Dwyer said she is proud of is how the program is undergraduate focused, with opportunities provided to students to conduct research.

In addition to her work at USD, Dwyer has also been very involved in ACS at its local chapter.

This included serving as section chair for two years and education committee chair to promote K-12 science education for five years.

Poway Senior Volunteer Patrol looking to expand services in 4S Ranch

BY EMILY SORENSEN The Poway Sheriff Station’s Senior Volunteer Patrol is looking to expand permanently into 4S Ranch and needs volunteers to do so.

The group operates out of the Poway station, which also oversees 4S Ranch. The volunteers currently patrol Poway full-time. They also spend one to two hours a day patrolling 4S Ranch, due to the 4S Ranch substation’s lack of its own dedicated SVP group.

“We’ve been doing patrols in 4S Ranch for many years and we’re trying to help 4S start its own SVP,” said Dick Shope, who handles volunteer recruitment for the Poway SVP. A dedicated SVP for 4S Ranch would mean volunteers could patrol the area full-time six days a week, instead of only an hour or two a day.

Seven or eight Poway SVP members have already volunteered to work out of 4S Ranch full-time, Shope said, but more volunteers will be needed to cover the area fully.

Because the SVP tries not to have volunteers work more than one shift a week, 24 people would be needed to patrol 4S Ranch fully six days a week. Shope said that 10

EMILY SORENSEN

Dick Shope and Marie Allin of the Poway Sheriff Station's Senior Volunteer Patrol program. volunteers would be needed to get started in 4S Ranch and it could expand later on.

The Poway SVP’s duties include checking neighborhoods, parks and schools to make sure everything is safe, handing out tickets for disabled parking space violations and just being a visible presence, which can deter crime, said Shope. “Our mission is no more complex than keeping Poway and 4S Ranch safe and secure, which we do by being out there. We observe and report.”

The Poway SVP also handles several other duties for the sheriff’s station, including vacation checks, where if someone is going out of town they can ask the SVP to keep

an eye on their house and make sure windows and doors are locked, and the You Are Not Alone program, which makes phone calls and visits to elderly and housebound Poway and 4S Ranch residents.

There are currently 15 Poway and 4S Ranch residents enrolled in the YANA program, said Marie Allin, the program’s director and a member of SVP. The SVP handling these duties frees up sheriff’s deputies for higher-priority calls, said Shope. In 2016, the Poway SVP put in 16,900 hours of volunteer service, the equivalency of eight full-time deputies. “That’s a lot of time that would have had to be allocated to a full-time deputy.”

Those wishing to join the SVP must be 50 years of age or older, be a U.S. citizen or in the process of applying to be one, have a valid California driver’s license and have automobile insurance. They must also have permission from their doctor that they are fine to ride in a car and stand for extended periods of time.

To apply to join the Poway SVP, or to nominate someone for the YANA program, call Pete Babich at 858-232-8000.

Registration open for five-month ‘Trails & Ales’ hiking program The San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy (SDRVC) has just opened registration for the popular five-month Trails & Ales hiking program, which includes two of San Diego’s most amazing assets: beautiful landscapes and delicious craft beers.

Hikers and beer lovers will join nature caretakers from the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy, the San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy, Volcan Mountain Foundation (VMF), The Escondido Creek Conservancy, and San Diego Canyonlands for a five-month Trails & Ales Hike series in North County that includes a visit to nearby craft breweries, including Plan 9 Alehouse in Escondido, Nickel Beer Company in Julian, The Lost Abbey in Cardiff, Viewpoint Brewing in Del Mar, and Jacked Up Brewery in Escondido.

The Trails & Ales Hike series will be held on Saturdays, Oct. 7, Nov. 4, Dec. 2, Feb. 3, 2018, and March 3, 2018. All events start at 10 a.m. and all of the hikes are led by local, experienced wildlife educators.

Participation is limited to 26 people who must be 21 or over. The hikes are sold as a series for $100 for members of any of the sponsoring organizations and $150 for nonmembers. The organizations are also offering new-membership specials that include the entire hike series at $125.

On Saturday, Oct. 7, hikers will join the San

Dieguito River Valley Conservancy to explore Clevenger Canyon South and enjoy craft beer at Plan 9 Alehouse. SDRVC’s new Conservation Manager, Jack Hughes, will lead the hike.

On Saturday, Nov. 4, hikers will join the Volcan Mountain Foundation to climb Volcan Mountain and cool off at Julian Hard Cider. VMF board member and resident naturalist, Sharyl Massey will co-lead the hike with VMF’s Executive Director, Colleen Bradley.

On Dec. 2, hikers will discover Los Cielos Preserve, lead by Jeff Swenerton, a seasoned educator and naturalist of The Escondido Creek Conservancy, followed by a visit to Jacked Up Brewery.

On Saturday, Feb. 3, 2018, participants will explore Annie’s Canyon Trail, followed by a visit to The Lost Abbey, guided by Elayna Flanders, Conservation Education Manager at San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy.

On Saturday, March 3, 2018, hikers will join San Diego Canyonlands’ Executive Director, Eric Bowlby, on a hike through Gonzales Canyon, followed by a visit to Viewpoint Brewing.

FROM EXCHANGE, A1 Jack Watters about his motivation to participate. “I wanted to take my Spanish to the next level.”

Due to their trip’s schedule, the RB students only spent the last day of the school year at their hosts’ campus, but Agrawal said she still noticed several differences. For example, Spanish students stay in the same classroom while their teachers come to them, unlike here where teachers have an assigned room and students move about campus.

In addition, Agrawal said Spanish teenagers tend to walk everywhere or take public transportation, while here they drive or their parents drive them.

Santiago Hernandez, a 16-year-old junior from Spain, noted that here teens are allowed to drive at 16, whereas in Spain the driving age is 18.

Watters, 17, said he noticed the trust Spanish parents have in their children, not just the teenagers, but “little kids,” who are allowed to be out on the streets, gathering with their friends in public spaces until late in the evening and not accompanied by their parents.

“They were in big groups,” he said. “It was safe. I did not feel in danger.”

RB High Spanish teacher Kim Rizzo, who started the exchange program, said in Spain youths often take public transportation and socialization is often done in the streets instead of homes. Teens meet their friends in the plaza or at coffee shops.

“The houses are very different,” said Marta Pascual, a 16-year-old junior from Spain, explaining back home people tend to live in

apartments instead of single-family houses.

During her visit to RB High on Friday, Pascual said the schools are different too, noting the variety of activities available at RB High, while far fewer extracurriculars are offered at her school.

Hernandez said this is his third exchange program trip to the United States. He stayed with host families in Los Angeles and Jacksonville, Florida, for a month each in previous years. “I like practicing English and knowing new people in the U.S.,” he said.

Rizzo said she started the exchange program for juniors and seniors with three campuses in northern Spain in order to enhance the learning opportunities and cultural understanding of her students. She has taken three groups to Spain since starting the program a few years ago and said the host duties would not be possible were it not for volunteers who assist her.

While here, the Spanish students will visit RB High classes and attend school activities for a few days and spend the rest of their trip doing things with their host families and sightseeing. Their itinerary includes beach days, the Midway Museum, Seaport Village, Point Loma, UC San Diego, Disneyland, SeaWorld, a Padres game, Hollywood and shopping at Las Americas.

“I started this exchange after spending eight months with my family on sabbatical as a Spanish teacher,” Rizzo said. “My main purpose in the eight months was to visit schools in northern Spain to build relationships in an effort to have a partnership with one or more schools so the students from here can communicate with native speakers.”

In addition to the exchange program, she

independent and most haven’t visited countries (without family before),” Eguiño said.

He said in Spain students are required to learn English starting in preschool and, in the case of his students, often speak three languages — Spanish (spoken throughout Spain), Basque (a very old language spoken at home) and English. They learn English early due to its importance and use around the world.

Eguiño, who has participated as a teacher with exchange programs in Chicago, said school spirit and identity is stronger in the United States since there are fewer school activities in Spain. While there are sports teams for soccer and basketball, no associated activities or groups — like cheerleaders — around the school sports teams, for example.

He said exchange experiences also help his students be more open minded, beneficial if they seek employment outside of Spain.

Both teachers said they encourage as many students as possible to participate, but finances are a hurdle. For example, RB students paid more than $3,000 each. Rizzo said fear of the unknown also plays a factor at times. Even when parents can afford the cost and want their students to go abroad, some students are hesitant to accept the opportunity.

The RB High students participating in this exchange are Anjni Agrawal, Brandon Byrne, Alex Coast, Lauren Coast, Mireya Dorado, Destiny Draves, Brianna Floyd, Tyler Greene, Blake Johnsen, Angela Johnson, Colin Kerr, Jordan Lindberg, Marintia Lopez, Kailey Lyche, Nilsa Marsh, Bradley Pickard, Roman Saward and Jack Watters.

“I recommend The Change Fitness to everyone.”

– Dr. Dan Einhorn, M.D., President American Assoc. of Clinical Endocrinologists, medical director of the Scripps Whittier Diabetes Institute, and professor of medicine at UC San Diego

said all her students have opportunities to use various technology to communicate with Spanish students. By speaking with each other, RB students can improve their Spanish and Spanish students their English.

Rizzo said she knows first-hand how beneficial an exchange program can be due to her experiences while living in Spain for a year during high school. Even though that was 22 years ago, Rizzo said she has remained in contact with her host family and friends in Spain’s Basque region and through them set up this program.

“I’m trying to provide opportunities for these kids to get out of their comfort zone, to be more globally aware, learn more about themselves and their own country while abroad,” Rizzo said. “You look at (your home country) through a different lens or perspective by comparing the two cultures.”

Even though the exchange is only six weeks in duration — three weeks as a guest and three weeks as a host — Rizzo said its impact is lifelong since the experience makes the teenagers “grow up” because they gain independence, problem-solving skills and self-confidence; foster an appreciation for their home and family; create lasting international friendships and connections; and develop perseverance plus the ability to deal with challenging or difficult situations.

“Their improvement in Spanish is huge (compared to) what they try to learn in the classroom,” Rizzo added.

Aitor Eguiño, who teaches English and technology at Urdaneta and is its exchange coordinator, said he also notices a change in his students as they go through the program.

“They get to know a different culture, improve their communication, can be more

VFW Post 7766 earns a national award

BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK The Veterans of Foreign Wars post in Rancho Bernardo has earned a national award for its community support and philanthropy.

Major Abraham J. Baum VFW Post 7766 has recently been named an All-American Post for 2016-17 by the VFW National Headquarters, said post spokesman Dave Epstein.

“This recognition takes into account many bureaucratic requirements such as maintaining membership levels and getting reports in on time, but it also recognizes such things as our charitable and community service efforts,” Epstein said.

Don Schmidt, the post’s commander for the past three years, said the VFW has around 6,500 posts worldwide and gives the award to the top 35 in each tier based on membership levels. Post 7766 has 111 members.

Schmidt said this is the third time the post has achieved All-American status since the Rancho Bernardo-based group formed in 1986.

“It means we have people in the post who are active and willing to contribute their time and talents to perpetuate

the mission of the VFW,” he said. “There are a number of posts that don’t do as much as we do, which is the reason (many of our members) joined us. They want to put in an effort that’s meaningful.”

According to Epstein, the post members fund several projects each year. These include assisting with two Stand Down events to help homeless veterans in South County (annual event held near Balboa Park associated with Veterans Village of San Diego) and a newer North County version (associated with Interfaith Community Services).

He said the post also financially contributes to the VFW National Home for Children in Eaton Rapids, Michigan; helps a Camp Pendleton-based Marine Corps battalion (efforts include hosting a Christmas party for the Marine’s children, who receive wood toys made for them by a post member); sponsors awards for high school cadets of local JROTC units; sponsors middle and high school level student essay contests; and co-sponsors Rancho Bernardo’s three annual patriotic ceremonies

for Independence Day, Memorial Day and Veterans Day. “Funds for these activities come primarily from contributions from local citizens on those days we distribute (Buddy) Poppies prior to Veterans Day and Memorial Day,” Epstein said.

According to Schmidt, the post typically raises $7,000 to $10,000 each year through the Buddy Poppy program, which must be spent on community endeavors.

Schmidt said other post efforts include sponsoring local Boy Scout, Cub Scout and Venture Scout troops, and assisting veterans when they need help. For the latter, the RB post sometimes works with other local posts to help veterans and their families who are down-on-their-luck or in emergency situations.

Schmidt said any U.S. veteran who earned a foreign war designation is eligible for membership. The post meets monthly at 7 p.m. on the third Wednesday in the RB Swim & Tennis Club, 16955 Bernardo Oaks Drive. For details, contact him at 858-487-7075 or cdr@vfwpost7766.org, or go to vfwpost7766.org.

FROM PANCAKE, A1 additional $2. Attendees will be able to choose from an assortment of extras, such as sprinkles, whipped cream, chocolate chips, fresh berries, nuts and fancy syrups, Sargent said.

“We’re hoping it will take off,” she said.

In addition, there will be free face painting for children and a silent auction. Sargent said the latter typically raises “quite an amount.” The auction items will include wine, haircuts and golf foursomes.

“We have quite a range of items donated,” she said, adding bidding will cease at 11 a.m.

Sargent said the Kiwanians are hoping to raise $20,000 this year, up from the $17,000 they received through last year’s event. All proceeds are redistributed to the community through Kiwanis projects. These include sponsoring youth programs, such as Key Club (a high school leadership and service program), Rady Children’s Hospital and its Ronald McDonald House, college scholarships for graduating high school students, various senior services and wounded Marines.

She said the Kiwanians’ work with the Marines is especially popular with the community. In addition, the club members would like to introduce a new community event in the future by offering a bicycle and car seat safety day.

Titleholders with the Miss Rancho Bernardo and Miss Poway pageants will also be selling tickets for the 50/50 opportunity drawing held during the breakfast, she said.

Helping the club’s roughly 35 Kiwanians put on the breakfast expected to draw 500 or more attendees will be Key Club members from Rancho Bernardo, Del Norte, Mt. Carmel and Westview high schools plus the Kiwins at Rancho Bernardo High, she said. All are chapters the Kiwanians support.

Sargent said around $2,300 was raised through advance ticket sales the past couple weekends at local grocery stores, down slightly from previous years because the Kiwanians were not able to sell in front of the RB Vons that is being remodeled.

Totals have yet to come in from other youth groups selling tickets in advance, another way the Kiwanians help local organizations since the sellers get to keep half of the ticket prices. Among sellers are the Del Norte Pop Warner and cheer teams, which last year raised $1,800 for their organization, she said.

The Los Rancheros Kiwanis Club members come from Rancho Bernardo, 4S Ranch, Carmel Mountain Ranch, Sabre Springs and Rancho Peñasquitos. For details, go to losrancheroskiwanis.org.

Poway chamber sets annual goals

T

he Poway Chamber of Commerce board of directors and committee chairs met last month to identify business concerns and formulate annual strategic goals to address local business needs. The chamber is committed to becoming the leading force for building a thriving local economy in Poway and the surrounding communities.

Encouraging members and residents to shop local by increasing visibility of the business community through marketing and by encouraging the adoption of the Poway Road Specific Plan are key goals this year. To this end, the chamber will initiate a shop poway.com campaign and has embarked on the redesign of the current website, which should encourage residents to shop local first. In addition, the chamber will take a more active role to ensure that chamber members and businesses along Poway Road are informed and supportive of the Poway Road development plan.

The newly formed Education Committee will work with the Poway Unified School District and local colleges to promote workforce development, so that local businesses have access to a pool of skilled employees in a variety of fields. The committee will create a business survey to determine what skills are needed in the workplace now and for jobs of the future.

Volunteers also discussed embracing the "Pow-way." Known as "The City in the Country," Poway has its own unique character and is a little different than its surrounding communities. Poway has a more relaxed attitude when we get down to business, realizing that personal relationships count for more in the long term than the immediate pursuit of wealth. We know our city's leaders and can sit down over a cup of coffee to discuss concerns on a personal level. This is the Pow-way, and it's the way we do business.

If you are interested in finding out more about the Poway Chamber of Commerce, please visit www.poway.com and sign up to receive The Chamber Report, our weekly newsletter. And remember for goods and services, always shop poway.com.

Canizales is president and CEO of the Poway Chamber of Commerce.

OUR READERS WRITE Hold off on adopting plan Poway Road is outdated and blight-worthy.

The slumlord millionaires have sat on their prime real estate for years, collecting rent and never investing. Poway Road is filled with poorly-timed stop lights, thrift shops and fast food restaurants.

We are a family community that enjoys our safe neighborhoods and great schools. We deserve to have a decent retail corridor. The goal of the Poway Road Corridor Study was to create a specific plan that could give us just that.

There are a lot of good changes proposed in the specific plan. However, as a resident of south Poway, I have a few concerns. In its current form, I see the plan as a detriment to the residents in south Poway.

This plans calls for over 1,000 new residences in a very small area of Poway Road. South Poway has enough apartments and condos. We don’t need a few thousand more people crowding Poway Road.

Second, the plan narrows car lanes and widens bicycle lanes. Is this really going to make Poway Road better?

Moreover, the plan calls for residences on top of commercial. Poway is not downtown San Diego.

With the City Council headed for district elections and south Poway about to get at least one voting member, I am calling on the City Council to, at a minimum, postpone a final vote on the plan until after the 2018 election or put the plan to a public vote.

Sean Finley Poway

Not about open space In his novel “1984” George Orwell tries to show us how important language can be in manipulating thoughts and opinions. Of the many techniques the novel's government “Oceana” employs to control society, one of the

subtler forms is a language technique called deliberate irony. That is, instead of conveying the real meaning of the words used, the intent is to undermine their meaning. Examples of this in “1984” include historical facts and statistics fabricated by “The Ministry of Truth.” The military is “The Ministry of Peace,” and labor/torture camps for political prisoners are managed by “The Ministry of Love.”

Which brings me to the group that named themselves “Poway Open Space, Inc.” The ones pushing the Proposition FF election this November to allow the building of condos on city-designated open space at StoneRidge Country Club. The name is a blatant manipulation of language to blur the issue and deceive and confuse uninformed voters. Expect it to continue in the mailers and messages running up to the election, and in a final effort to confuse at the polls, in a carefully worded ballot proposal.

Property owner Michael Schlesinger has already sent payment to the city on the order of $400,000 to cover election costs. “Poway Open Space, Inc.” is paying top consultant John Hoy to help run the campaign. Schlesinger’s motivation is profit through development.

“Poway Open Space, Inc.” members’ motivation is protecting their own investments and real estate value.

These people are not for Poway’s open space, only themselves.

Teaching our kids to be wimps The weather service “predicts” the temperature is going to go over 90 degrees, so the San Diego Unified School District teaches our kids to be wimps by closing the schools early.

Vaccination law showing results

T

he last year saw no major outbreaks of measles or any of the other nine potentially fatal diseases against which California public schoolchildren must be vaccinated – one possible result of a 2016 law that eliminated a “personal belief” exemption that formerly allowed thousands of youngsters to attend school without vaccinations.

This “no news is good news” will see many parents drop off their kids with a new sense of security as schools open this fall.

There’s a good reason for their relief: Vaccination rates of seventh graders reportedly reached record levels during

the last school year, the first in which the new, stricter rules applied.

Seventh graders can’t register for school unless they’ve had booster immunizations against tetanus (also called lockjaw), diphtheria and pertussis (better known as whooping cough). And if they haven’t previously been vaccinated against another seven diseases (measles, bacterial meningitis, mumps, polio, rubella, hepatitis B and chicken pox), those seventh graders must get it done before their enrollments can proceed.

Now the state Department of Public Health reports that seventh graders meeting school-entry vaccination

requirements stood at 98.4 percent last spring, up 1.8 percent from three years earlier.

That 1.8 percent can make a big difference, especially for the small percentage of schoolchildren who can’t be vaccinated for medical reasons like being immune-suppressed by drugs needed to keep organ transplants going. Only 0.4 percent of school pupils now get medical exemptions.

This leaves only about 1 percent of students unvaccinated for all other reasons, most of them the residue from the era when personal-belief exemptions were available to parents who dislike vaccinations. Those

A respite from the negative

T

he built-up anticipation followed by mere minutes for many of us to witness an astronomical phenomena like the recent eclipse was borderline cathartic. It paved the way for the masses to take a short break from the over exposure of negativity, now a constant in our waking lives.

Sadly, many quickly reverted to the instant barrage of social media, news commentaries, negative newspaper columns (both national

and local), arguments and debate. Fortunately for me, I had come to grips with a personal eclipse of my own, or I might say respite from the negative, on a trip to Catalina Island the week prior.

Upon arrival at the condo we had rented, we discovered there was no Wi-Fi in our unit, nor television, daily newspaper service or cell connections. Alas, the momentary disappointment was soon replaced by a basic reality that I had left checked at the door in my daily life

I thought our schools were supposed to be preparing our kids for real life.

Did he back Republicans?

After reading Harvey Levine’s Aug. 17 column, I was left with the impression that Mr. Levine was not pleased with

activities. Absent the stream of negative news, we were able to rediscover the wonders of the world. An early morning sunrise over the peaceful ocean water and wild deer within reach from our golf cart. Above all, my three grandchildren, all under age 6, were there to share all of this new excitement. I finally began to comprehend how God has the ability to love each one of us regardless of how bad we are. He thinks we are all his grandchildren.

On our second day I

kids are allowed to continue in school until seventh grade, when they must provide written evidence of vaccination. The unvaccinated are now a small enough portion of the school population to minimize chances for any new outbreaks of the targeted diseases.

The new law and the new emphasis on getting virtually all kids vaccinated stemmed from a 2014-15 outbreak of measles that struck some visitors to Disneyland and eventually infected 136 Californians, many of whom never visited the Orange County theme park but came into contact with people who did. Studies showed that no more than 86 percent of persons at Disneyland when the infections occurred had been vaccinated, not enough to ensure the safety of everyone there. Because some folks probably lied to researchers, the actual vaccination rate may have been as low as 50 percent, reported the Journal of the American Medical

Association.

In 2014, also, whooping cough was declared epidemic in California and listed as the cause of death of three infants too young for vaccination.

They had likely been exposed to other children who were never vaccinated.

The new numbers and the relief they bring to parents who want certainty that their children are safe do not, however, mean that everyone who used the old personal belief exemption (essentially allowing anyone to claim – with no verification – a religious conviction against vaccinations) has now acquiesced.

Authorities estimate about half those who previously refused to vaccinate their children found other ways to preserve them in that status: vaccinations are not required for children being homeschooled, nor do families leaving the state need to comply. Precise numbers for these types of avoidance do not exist because California’s Department of Education doesn’t track either

the number of homeschooled children or the number of parents migrating elsewhere for this reason.

But at least those kids won’t be carrying any of the once-dreaded diseases into the state’s schoolrooms, making those who do attend schools as safe as they’ve ever been.

None of this has come easily; opposition to vaccination remains and bogus negative medical studies on it abound. But several judges declined to issue injunctions against the law when they were sought by vaccination opponents and an effort to quality an anti-vaccination initiative for next year’s ballot has gone nowhere.

So it appears the vaccination law will survive indefinitely, making schools and all public venues significantly safer for children, seniors and the immune-suppressed for the foreseeable future.

found a DVD, providing me a treasured memory from the past when Louis Armstrong began to sing “What a Wonderful World.” This song was written in 1968 during the Vietnam War to try and bring hope to the millions of victims suffering the effects of the war. Here are the words to the third stanza: “The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky, are also the face of people going by. I see friends shaking hands, saying ‘How do you do?’

They’re really saying ‘I love you.’ Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world!”

We need to remind ourselves more often that we do live in a wonderful world.

From the moment we enter this world with a slap on the bum, most of us just want to be heard.

For generations that needed voice was difficult to establish, but with the modern advent of the social media frenzy of Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram, that need is easily fulfilled. However, as with anything, the downside of quick and easy fulfillment has the potential for abuse. With everyone wanting to be heard (their opinion and theirs only) the old adage of “Let’s agree that we can disagree, but let’s not be disagreeable” seems to have left the building.

Arriving home from Catalina I had rediscovered some inherently simple truths that had gathered cobwebs from my mental neglect. The other universal truth (like the pure love and the trust of a grandchild) I had forgotten was there to welcome me as I climbed

out of the car. Now, I will admit that on occasion, my wife will express some perceived excitement upon my return from work or an extended trip, but I cannot recall a time where she openly peed on the driveway or licked my face for five minutes as our dog Cali does, with such unconditional love.

Right before my eyes the whole time had been a basic prescription to help us bind and heal hate and negativity.

Grandchildren and dogs, the great equalizers.

When I finally regained cell service there was a message on my phone from my oldest son. He and his wife are expecting their first child in April. Yes, it is a wonderful world!

the outcome of the last election.

He blames that outcome on voters who simply do not know how to properly cast a vote. Among the many reasons he lists as to why voters don’t vote as they should are ignorance, listening to biased TV and radio commentators, people who only vote for members of their own party, not heeding Sen. McCain's advice and voting against issues that they should support (gender bathroom access, immigration reform, climate change, poverty) or just the liberal agenda.

It would be interesting to know how many Republicans Mr. Levine voted for.

They are hypocrites This is regarding the story in the Aug. 17 News Journal headlined: Peters denounces racists, violence, President Trump and GOP actions.

Isn’t it interesting that the Democrats denounce the above, however, they are for the most violent action against the most helpless and innocent, the abortion of babies. Many are black babies.

Hypocrites!

PREP FOOTBALL

Challenges ahead for Poway, Rancho Bernardo teams

BY TERRY MONAHAN Friday night will be a huge test for the Poway High football team and first-year head coach Scott Coats while Rancho Bernardo, in search of its first win this season, takes on a team ranked in the Top 10 this week.

Poway, 1-0 after defeating Bonita Vista last Friday, entertains Lincoln, also 1-0.

Rancho Bernardo, which lost its regular season opener to Eastlake, visits No. 6 El Camino (1-0).

Del Norte (0-1) is home against Fallbrook (0-1).

After having a first-week bye last week, Maranatha Christian (0-0) hosts Calipatria (1-0).

Here is a closer look at this week’s games:

No. 7 Lincoln (1-0) at Poway (1-0), Friday at 7 p.m.

Last week: Lincoln beat Chula Vista 52-20; Poway beat Bonita Vista 39-7.

Notes: Five different Titans rushed for touchdowns last week with Justin Kramer scoring twice on runs of four and one yard. Bryce Tregoning opened the scoring with a one-run and Donovan Bercasio added a 22-yard TD run for a 12-0 lead after one quarter. Garrett Van Nostrand added an 11-yard TD run in

the second quarter. Then came Kramer’s two touchdowns in the fourth quarter with Josh Butler capping Poway’s ground assault with a six-yard TD run.

Poway will have to find a way to slow down Lincoln’s Asante Hartzog, who completed 11 of 13 passes for 240 yards and four TDs against Chula Vista. Hartzog also rushed for a TD. Poway won both previous games ---20-7 in 2010 and 24-17 in 2011.

Prediction: Lincoln 21, Poway 17

Rancho Bernardo (0-1) at No. 6 El Camino (1-0), Friday at 7 p.m.

Last week: Rancho Bernardo lost to Eastlake 21-3; El Camino beat Point Loma 34-12.

Notes: Rancho Bernardo had a tough time finding enough offense, passing for 91 yards and rushing for just 75 in the opener. QB Christian Lewis, who is replacing Mark Salazar, was 10-for-17 passing for 91 yards and an interception.

The defense will come into play against El Camino’s offense, which now features former Orange Glen receiver Malachi Russell. He caught eight passes last week for 222

yards and touchdowns of 23, 20 and 74 yards. The Wildcats also have UCLA-bound running back Chris Brown. Rancho Bernardo LB Jack Gaylord collected 18 tackles last week. Ashton Nichols had eight tackles, Luke Manos had seven tackles and Jacob Wiggins had six tackles. PK Matt Araiza, who also plays cornerback, and Jonny Tanner both had interceptions. Hunter Fridoff blocked a field goal kick. El Camino

leads the series with a 5-3 margin.

Prediction: El Camino 35, Rancho Bernardo 28

Fallbrook (0-1) at Del Norte (0-1), Friday at 7 p.m.

Last week: Fallbrook lost to Westview 41-0; Del Norte lost to Carlsbad 49-0.

Notes: Both teams are looking for their first points of the season. Del Norte QB Francisco Sanchez was the best weapon the Nighthawks had last week. He was 10-for-17 passing for 77

yards, but he threw two interceptions. Jamie Meoli led the way with four catches for 37 while Jonathan Cappiello added four catches for 29 yards. Fallbrook is trying to snap a five-game losing skid.

The Warriors’ lone win last season came against Hoover (48-0). Del Norte holds a 4-2 lead in the series against Fallbrook.

Prediction: Del Norte 17, Fallbrook 14

Calipatria (1-0) at Maranatha Christian (0-0), Friday at 7 p.m.

Last week: Calipatria beat Escondido Charter 44-19; Maranatha Christian had a bye.

Notes: In last year’s game

against the Hornets, a 13-7 loss for Maranatha Christian, the Eagles’ defense was led by Ryan Trent and Logan Godwin, both had 11 tackles.

Trent also had a sack and Godwin had an interceptions.

Josh Allen had 10 tackles and a sack and Antonio Patrida had seven tackles and a sack.

This week the defense will need to slow down the Hornets’ Nate Banuelos, who rushed for 172 yards and two TDs as the Hornets rushed for 401 yards last week.

Calipatria found some momentum last week after being tied 6-6 after the first quarter. Last year’s game was the first meeting in the series.

Del Norte, Maranatha back after championship seasons

THE SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE

The Del Norte High School girls volleyball team won the San Diego Section title last year.

For the first time ever, the girls volleyball teams at Del Norte and Maranatha Christian will understand how different things are after winning a San Diego Section championship.

Del Norte captured the Division I crown last year while Maranatha won it all in Division IV, marking not only the first volleyball title ever at the private school but it was also the school’s first title in any sport.

Additionally, Jeff Sutherland returns after a six-year absence to coach Del Norte. Last year’s coach, Ashton O’Halloran, is now in law school.

“I’ve been in Portland the

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL PREVIEW last two years coaching up there,’’ said Sutherland, who left the Nighthawks after a two-year stint following the 2010 season. “There was too much rain up there for my wife and me, so we moved the family back down here.

“I was meeting with (athletic director) Mike Giaime on something else and he said the girls volleyball job was open. This time I’m never leaving.’’

Sutherland inherited a team that posted a 23-11 overall record, including a 9-1 record to win the Palomar League title in its first year in the league.

Del Norte won eight straight matches at the end of the season to claim the Division I title by sweeping Otay Ranch 25-16, 26-24, 27-25, then downed Elsinore but lost to Glendora in the state playoffs.

“We haven’t talked much about the titles last year,’’ Sutherland said. “Our goal this year is to get into the Open Division, compete against the county’s best. We don’t want to be just the best Division I team.

“I watched this team from afar the last few years.’’

Malia Kay will treasure championship moment Nighthawk headed to Davidson next year

BY TERRY MONAHAN No matter what happens during her senior year at Del Norte or at her next stop in college to play at Davidson, Malia Kay will never forget her first championship moment.

When the final point hit the ground in the Nighthawks’ San Diego Section Division I final against Otay Ranch, the 5-foot-10 senior outside hitter remembers everyone running onto the court.

“It got real loud all of a sudden and I usually can’t hear anything when I’m playing except my coach,’’ Kay said.

“Everyone was screaming and no one seemed to mind the noise.’’

Del Norte’s first season in the Palomar League turned out to be better than anyone thought.

The Nighthawks opened the season with eight straight victories en route to a 23-11 overall record, including a 25-16, 26-24, 27-25 win over Otay Ranch in the section finals.

Del Norte also beat Elsinore in the state playoffs before being eliminated by Glendora.

No team from Del Norte had ever won a section crown.

“That was an amazing experience,’’ said Kay, who received text messages from seven of her prospective teammates next year at Davidson when she committed. “I had dreamed of

getting that far. We just played every match like it was our last.

“It was incredible moment. I was shocked. We were posing for pictures. I was crying.

“The next day I heard the announcement at schools and it was great. The whole day felt different. I wish I could experience it every day.’’

Kay, one of nine seniors on the team, was last year’s kill leader at Del Norte with 316 kills.

When it came time to look at colleges, Kay said she wanted to leave California for college.

“I wanted to try something different,’’ she said. “I’m excited to go to a good academic school something so far away, to a place that’s less busy than some other Division I schools.

“There are so many of my classmates who are still dealing with colleges, applications, test scores, writing essays.’’

Kay is considering majoring in environmental studies with an eye on pursuing a career in architecture. “As a kid I never drew stick figures,’’ Kay said. “I always drew houses and buildings.’’ Kay is taking an architecture design class this semester at Del Norte to judge her level of interest.

“I want to have this year to reminisce about these years at Del Norte,’’ Kay said. “Next year will be so different. I’ll be

“The weird thing is I still feel pretty young. I don’t feel like a senior. Once I go to Davidson, that will be the first day of being an adult.’’

Kay, who began taking volleyball more seriously when she was 13, was a soccer player first from age 6 to 12.

“My older brother played volleyball and watching him play got me into it,’’ she said.

“I fell in love with the sport because when you’re on the court you have to play the ball on every play. I always seemed to know more about volleyball

than I ever did about soccer.”

But being a defending champion for the first time has placed a new burden on Kay and her teammates.

Teams will want to defeat them no matter what the circumstances are.

“The bar has been set really high,’’ Kay said. “Expectations are hanging all over us like never before. It will be challenging every match.

Every time we don’t win people will wonder what’s wrong.’’

But Kay would never give back her championship moment.

Poway's 12U Force baseball team represented the travel ball club in Cooperstown, New York at the Cooperstown All Star Village Tournament from Aug. 5 to 11.

Managed by Paul Klepsch and coached by Rob Nigro, the team went 6-0 in pool play, earning the Force a No. 2 seed overall. In the end, Force was only one game away from the championship. Their overall record was 7-1, losing only one game, 6 to 5, to the eventual finalist team. There were teams from California, Canada, Illinois, New York and Virginia.

Every player contributed greatly to the team's success.

The Force racked up the offense with 110 runs scored and only gave up 19 runs.

Overall, the Force ranked 11th for the most home runs out of the 50 teams. They hit 21 home runs, including three grand slams, and gave up only four home runs.

Out of 620 players in the tournament, Addison Klepsch tied for 17th place in home runs (with five, including one grand slam) and Matthew Rosella and Ryan Krekel tied for 37th in home runs (with four each). The following players hit home runs: Ivan Balboa (three, including one grand slam), Ryan Petr (two), Tre Lucia (one, a grand slam), Nico Armell (one) and Mason Wrenn (one).

In addition, the Force made an impression behind the plate. The club sponsored three umpires -- Gary, Brett and Matthew Martin, a father-sons trio from Poway -who umpired several games throughout the week. Gary and Matthew Martin were chosen by their peers at Cooperstown to umpire the championship game.

Unfortunately, Brett Martin was injured in his first game and unable to participate the rest of the week.

CELEBRATING 20 YEARS Poway’s Special Olympic softball team, The Poway Padres, gathered recently near the Tony Gwynn statue at Lake Poway to celebrate the team’s 20th anniversary.

Tony Rubino was the original coach, along with Gene Maienschein and Ron Hernandez. All three men are still active. The team started with 12 players practicing at Lake Poway. Today, the team has grown to over 70 athletes. Over the years the team has won many gold medals and other recognitions for its victories.

FROM VOLLEYBALL, B1 Seniors Hailey Henderson, outside hitter Malia Kay and middle blocker Izzy Clyde will lead this year’s team.

Kay, who verbally committed to Davidson, tops the returners with 316 kills last year.

Henderson had 172 kills.

Senior Maddie Opeltz and freshman Caitlin Jose will share setting duties in the 6-2 offense.

Junior Lauren Yee and senior Megan Leung will handle the libero duties while Sutherland expects big contributions from junior middle blocker Maddie Harris and senior opposite Taylor DeGuzman.

“It’s nice to be back,’’ Sutherland said.

“The first day walking into the gym was a little déjà vu.

“I’m just happy to see seniors on the roster. I never had any seniors the first time.

Our captains were sophomores. I think I had one junior start for me.’’

Maranatha Christian

The Eagles, who opened last season with 11 consecutive wins en route to a 26-4 overall record, return five of their six All-Ocean League performers.

OH Amy Buffini, S Alysha Buffini and L Faith Landis, who are now all sophomores, were all first-teamers.

Landis, who had 240 kills last year, was the player of the year for the league champions.

Amy Buffini had 314 kills and 123 aces and Alysha Buffini has 101 aces.

Middle blockers Jordan Ward, a senior with 129 kills, and Sarah Stout, a junior, were second-team all-leaguers.

Maranatha rallied after losing the first two sets of the Division IV finals before claiming the crown with a 20-25, 15-25, 28-26, 26-24, 15-13 victory.

The Titans, who were 15-17 overall and 4-6 in Palomar League play, are banking on eight seniors on the 17-player squad to lead the way.

Allie Seager was a first-team all-league middle blocker last year by collecting 243 kills while MB Sadie Hamson had 207 kills.

Outside hitters Sarah Williams and Willow Finley had 195 and 185 kills, respectively.

Both were named all-tournament in the Fall Classic last fall.

Sophomore Katie Farrell will handle the setting duties until a transfer becomes eligible in October.

“We’re strong up the middle again,’’ coach Breezy Ambort said. “That’s kind of been our MO at Poway over the years. We have to have more production from the middle.

Newcomer Jordan Freeman, a 6-2 junior middle blocker in just her second year of playing, is expected to help guard the net.

“We weren’t very confident most of last year,’’ Hanes said. “It took until halfway through league play when everyone got comfortable with what we were doing.

“Now everyone has bought in and we’re so much stronger in the middle.’’

‘Kiss of the Spider Woman’ opens Friday at Welk

BY EMILY SORENSEN The Welk Resort Theater in Escondido presents the musical “Kiss of the Spider Woman,” opening Friday.

Ray Limon, the show’s director, described “Kiss of the Spider Woman” as a powerful, tragic story. “It’s a dark show,” he said. “It’s not a happy story like ‘The Music Man.’ It’s not a family-friendly musical.”

The musical is based on the 1976 novel of the same name

by Argentine author Manuel Puig. It was written by John Kander and Fred Ebb, the same duo behind the musicals “Cabaret” and “Chicago,” with book by Terrence McNally. The musical had runs in the West End in 1992 and Broadway in 1993. It won the 1993 Tony Award for best musical.

It tells the story of two men in a Latin American prison, where they face torture and humiliation on a regular basis. Molina, a homosexual window dresser who is in prison for corrupting a

minor, survives by living in a fantasy world revolving around his favorite actress, Aurora, who he regularly tells the other prisoners about.

He is joined by Valentin, a Marxist revolutionary, and the men begin to bond over Molina’s stories about Aurora and his mother. “It’s about how people come together through diversity and change,” Limon said.

The book was also adapted into a popular film in 1985 starring William Hurt and Raul Julia, which audiences might be more familiar with than the musical, Limon said.

Despite the darkness of the story, Limon said the show has a positive message and is wonderful. “It’s about hope, diversity and acceptance, and it has gorgeous music.”

The show also features several big dance numbers as part of Molina’s fantasies, which Limon said come to life with an “amazing set of male dancers.”

The musical stars Natalie

Nucci as Aurora, Jeffrey Parsons as Molina, Richard Bermudez as Valentin, Robert Hoyt as Warden, Lisa Dyson as Molina’s Mother, Kylie Molnar as Marta, Colden lamb as Prisoner/Esteban, Collin Rand as Prisoner/Marcos, Max Herzfeld as Prisoner/Gabriel, Sergio David Salinas as Prisoner/Relg Fanatic/Carlos, Justin Matthew Segura as Prisoner/Fuentes, John Paul Batista as Prisoner/Model/Amnesty, Sean Kiralla as Prisoner/Molina Asst/Aurelio and Matthew Ryan as Prisoner.

The show runs for eight weeks, closing Oct. 22. Shows are 1 p.m. Thursday, Saturday and Sunday and 8 p.m.

Thursday and Saturday.

Tickets are $51 for the show alone or $72 for the show and a pre-show meal. Tickets are available by calling 888-802-7469.

The show is not suitable for anyone under 17 due to adult language and subject matter.

F

lipping through an old cookbook my mom used religiously during our childhood, I landed on a dog-eared, batter-stained page that revealed our family’s favorite recipe for carrot cake with cream cheese frosting.

One of the cake ingredients was a half-cup of yogurt. In those days, there were only a couple of varieties — plain or fruit blended, so it was a no-brainer about what type to use in that recipe. Today, the yogurt aisle is a dizzying wonderland of fermented milk from bovines, ovines and caprines, along with non-dairy substitutes with various fat contents, textures, flavors, sweeteners, and gut-friendly live cultures to dial up digestion along with the immune system.

Here’s a line-up of yogurts to give you the most out of this probiotic delight.

That’s Greek to Me: The Greek yogurt craze has swept throughout the country capturing one-third of the yogurt market, tallying nearly $2 billion in annual sales.

After traditional fermentation methods the yogurt is then strained through a filter, usually made of muslin to remove the liquid whey, leaving a super thick, silky smooth texture with a distinct tartness, much like sour cream with benefits. This denser yogurt boasts more protein than its conventional counterpart, less sugar, along with fewer carbs and lactose making it gentler on the gut for digestion. Greek’s also a probiotic powerhouse packed with immune boosting live active cultures (L. Bulgaricus, L. Acidophilus, Bifidus).

The yogurt’s decadent consistency makes it an ideal substitute for fatty mayonnaise, heavy and sour creams, custards and ice creams. Scoop a dollop on a steamy baked spud, blend in a yam soufflé or a redskin potato salad. Whip up spinach, crab or artichoke dips, and tzatziki sauce. Grill wild caught salmon with a sprinkling of fennel seeds, and slather of Greek yogurt. Drizzle tarragon yogurt sauce over grilled chicken or veggie kebobs. Do a riff on fettuccine alfredo and creamed soups. Blend in smoothies, milkshakes, and batters of all kinds for a moist, scrumptious texture.

Nothing to Balk About: Balkan- or set-style yogurt is typically prepared with raw whole milk in small, individual-size batches, and like Greek yogurt is strained, giving it a thick velvety texture with a good protein and probioitc load. Alas, Balkan also has a high fat content, so use portion control.

Getting Stirred Up: Swiss-style also called stirred yogurt ferments in a large vat, and is then stirred and often blended with fruit. This yogurt, while creamy, is thinner in texture, and almost drinkable.

Say Cheese: Labneh, a Middle Eastern spread that resembles sour cream in texture is a type of yogurt cheese traditionally served on pita bread with a drizzle of olive oil and sprinkling of fresh mint leaves.

I’ll Drink to That: Of Eastern European origins, Kefir, a fermented dairy

beverage is slightly sour and refreshing, packed with billions of colony-forming units. Drink it straight up for a quick antioxidant oomph.

Get your Goat: For those that don’t do moo milk look for yogurt made from the milk of goats, sheep, yaks and camels. Since goat milk closely resembles the composition of human milk fewer allergies are triggered, while the smaller fat globules, lower levels of lactose (sugar in milk) and Alpha-S1 casein (protein in milk) make it more easily digestible.

Rich and gamy sheep’s yogurt has a load of milk solids and lactose (even more than cow’s milk) that might be difficult to digest.

So steer clear of this one if you have gut issues.

Copycat Cultures: For vegans and those with dietary restrictions, allergies and lactose intolerance non-dairy yogurt options include those made from almond, soy, and coconut milks. These contain the same probiotic digestive benefits as their dairy counterparts with a lighter consistency. Almond is rich in magnesium and Vitamin E, coconut has a good amount of anti-fungal lauric acid to calm intestinal candida, while soy is high in protein and calcium, but choose organic to avoid GMOs.

White Gazpacho ■ Ingredients: 1 cup plain Skyr or Greek yogurt; 1/2 cup ice water; 3 tablespoons virgin olive oil; 1 tablespoon lemon juice; 1 handful fresh cilantro; 1 garlic clove; 2 Persian cucumbers; 3 Roma tomatoes; 1 sweet red pepper; 1/2 small red onion ■ Method: In blender, puree ingredients and chill. Serve with grilled flatbread.

Medical examiner: Pedestrian, meth deaths up in 2016

BY YVETTE URREA MOE Pedestrian fatalities reached their highest number in decades, while methamphetamine-related deaths and homicides also increased last year compared to recent years. Those were among the findings noted in the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s just-released 2016 Annual Report.

“These statistics closely follow trends reported in 2015,” said Dr. Glenn Wagner, the county’s chief medical examiner. “The report provides a view of recent death trends in San Diego County based on a subset of the total cases.”

The report offers an overview of cases and examines trends in causes of death for the approximately 8,500 cases the ME’s Office investigates annually – a little less than half of the 19,000 to 21,000 deaths recorded in San Diego County every year. After an initial review, many of those cases are then determined to be sudden unexpected natural deaths.

The data in the report focuses on the 3,070 cases in 2016 that the Medical Examiner’s Office fully investigated. Of those cases, 47 percent were accidental, including deaths related to prescription drug overdoses, motor vehicle trauma, and industrial or agricultural and home-based trauma. Another 33 percent were determined to be natural deaths, 14 percent were suicides, a little more than 4 percent were homicides and in nearly 2 percent the cause was undetermined.

The report notes that of the 307 motor vehicle fatalities last year, pedestrian fatalities went up to 101 cases, excluding two suicide pedestrian deaths. This is an increase from 93 pedestrian fatality cases in 2015. The 101 unintentional pedestrian deaths were the highest number since 1994 when there were 103 cases.

Another trend was a general increase over 15 years in unintentional deaths due to drugs and medications, up to 544 in 2016 compared to 268 in 2000. In illicit

The number of methamphetamine death cases is also at its highest number in 16 years, increasing steadily since 2000 when there were 62 cases.

Among the substance-related deaths, alcohol had the second most cases with 106. Heroin overdoses were the third largest cause of deaths with 91 cases, and were most common in the age range 20 to 29. Opiates represented the largest group of medications in the 2016 drug deaths, which included heroin, morphine and benzodiazepines.

In 2016, San Diego also saw four cases involving designer drugs. The drugs

included an acetyl fentanyl death, a death from mitragynine (a plant-based opioid commonly referred to as kratom) and two deaths from U-47700, an opioid analgesic not intended for human use.

The data also showed that homicide rates increased compared to the last three years. In 2016, there were 116 homicides, compared to 93 in 2015, 90 in 2014 and 88 in 2013. In 2012, there were 122 cases.

Last year, 50 cases were due to firearms, 26 cases were due to cutting/stabbing, 22 were from blunt force and seven were from asphyxiation. The other 11 were from less common mechanisms such as poisoning, drowning or environmental exposure.

Suicides increased slightly last year

with 431 cases compared to 427 cases in 2015. The county urges anyone who is struggling with depression or is concerned about a loved one to seek free mental health and substance abuse counseling. Call the county’s Behavioral Health Access and Crisis Line at 888-724-7240. Suicide prevention and awareness information is also available at up2sd.org.

As drug-related deaths continue to increase, so have the number of cases handled by the forensic toxicology laboratory. In 2016, the laboratory handled more than 2,100 cases, a hundred more cases than the previous year and the highest increase in 16 years.

In 2001, the laboratory handled fewer than 1,700 cases, but those numbers have steadily increased over the years.

“In general, the findings are valuable to the law enforcement, mental health and drug rehabilitation communities and help guide how we direct resources to county initiatives like Live Well San Diego and the associated task forces on suicides, elder abuse, domestic violence, child fatalities, methamphetamine and prescription drug abuse,” said Wagner.

“The death investigation work done by this office is a combination of service, education and research.”

County Medical Examiner investigators are also involved in many research opportunities and are members of various multidisciplinary death review committees, including those that work to reduce trauma deaths and improve the trauma system. Pathologists, investigators and other staff also share their expertise at conferences and in academic settings, including providing a teaching rotation program for pathology residents from UC San Diego School of Medicine and Naval Medical Center San Diego, as well as brief clerkships for medical students from around the country.

Registrar mails postcards to update voter rolls

BY TRACY DeFORE Postcards from the Registrar of Voters will soon show up in some mailboxes around the county.

Mailers started going out Aug. 24 to 103,000 residents to find out whether their addresses are current. The registrar is sending the postcards as part of its routine maintenance of the voter rolls.

“If you receive a postcard, fill it out and return it whether you’ve moved or not,” said Registrar of Voters Michael Vu. “We want to make sure the address we have on file is up-to-date so you can continue receiving election materials such as sample ballots and mail ballots for future elections.”

The postcards are being mailed to registered voters whose election materials were returned to the registrar’s office as undeliverable or who filed a change of address with the U.S. Postal Service. If a forwarding address was left with the U.S. Postal Service, the postcards will be

forwarded to the new address.

Voters who receive the prepaid postcard must fill it out and return it within 30 days to remain on active status.

Otherwise, they’ll be placed on inactive status and won’t receive election materials. They will still be eligible to vote, but they’ll need to take action – such as change party preference, sign a petition or vote – in order to get back on active status and be mailed materials again.

The registrar updates its rolls regularly in accordance with the National Voter Registration Act and state law. The replies will give the registrar’s office a better picture on the number of registered voters on its active list and also save taxpayer money by not mailing materials to addresses no longer current.

For more information, call 858-565-5800 or visit sdvote.com.

DeFore is with the County of San Diego Communications Office.

Shelter holding animals rescued from Harvey EL CAJON (CNS) - More than 100 dogs and cats arrived in San Diego County Monday from a shelter in Louisiana, where the operators are clearing out space to house animals rescued from Texas and Louisiana in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey.

“When disasters strike and the country needs help caring for lost, strayed or abandoned pets, they turn to San Diego,” said John Van Zante with the Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He said the Wings of Rescue flight carried 85 dogs and 20 cats from Louisiana.

“These pets are being transferred from Lafayette to create room for the Texas and Louisiana pet victims of Hurricane Harvey,” Van Zante said.

The dogs and cats will be taken to several facilities across San Diego, including Labradors and Friends Rescue, San Diego Humane Society and Rancho Coastal Humane Society. They'll also be available for adoption, perhaps sometime later this week.

“We've been told that the hurricane pet victims will begin arriving in Lafayette almost immediately after these pets leave,” Van Zante said.

Harvey, which is now a tropical storm, made landfall in Texas on Friday night as a Category 4

hurricane before moving back over the Gulf of Mexico. It has already dropped more than 30 inches of rain in some areas and caused devastating flooding in Houston and the surrounding areas.

Animals lost and abandoned in the flooding will be taken to the Acadiana Animal Aid shelter in Lafayette, while the cats and dogs that were at the Louisiana shelter will now be available for adoption in San Diego.

“The incoming pets are not direct victims of Hurricane Harvey,” said Denise St. Jean with Wings of Rescue. “These are highly adoptable cats anddogs ... being transferred to San Diego to create room for the victim pets that have been lost, strayed, or abandoned because of the hurricane.

These pets do not have owners who will be searching for them when the weather improves.”

The transfer of the pets was part of a joint effort

by Wings of Rescue, GreaterGood.org, Labradors and Friends Rescue, the San Diego Humane Society and Rancho Coastal Humane Society. All five organizations are accepting donations to help cover the costs of the flight and to provide care for the animals once they arrive.

“No pet should die because it was born in the wrong state,” Van Zante said.

Massage Concepts offers tranquility for a reasonable price

BY KAREN BILLING When Anne Chao opened Massage Concepts last year in the Del Mar Highlands Town Center, she knew exactly what the magic touch would be: No memberships, no pressure to purchase packages, just high-quality relaxation. Since opening, Massage Concepts was named Best Massage in the 2016 Best of North Coast Readers Poll and business has grown steadily — last month they had over 1,000 visitors.

“What makes us special is that we not only provide mainstream massage services but we incorporate Asian styles. We also provide high-quality massage at a good price with excellent customer service. We work hard to make sure the customer wants to come back,” said Chao, noting she is against memberships or aggressive sales of treatment packages. “Customer loyalty comes from customer satisfaction.”

In addition to the traditional Swedish and deep tissue massages, Massage Concepts’ menu includes the Asian styles of shiatsu therapy and reflexology. Shiatsu, which originated in Japan with influence from Chinese medicine, is a form of holistic body therapy by applying “finger pressure.” The

therapist uses touch, comfortable pressure and manipulative techniques to alleviate the body’s stress and balance its energy flow.

The ancient art of reflexology is based on the belief that different points on the feet, lower leg, hands, face and ears correspond with different areas of the body. Chao said that by applying pressure to these points, the treatment stimulates blood flow and relieves tension throughout the body.

Owning the massage studio is a brand new experience for Chao as she used to work for Qualcomm in the licensing department, working a demanding schedule that involved a lot of travel. She was looking for something different to do and when the space opened up in Del Mar Highlands Town Center, just minutes from her Del Mar home, she thought she would give the massage business a try.

“I always loved getting massages but I had a hard time getting what I wanted,” Chao said.

At other chain massage places, she didn’t like the pressure to purchase memberships and packages that she couldn’t always use due to her travel schedule and she had a hard time making appointments when both

Massage Concepts owner Anne Chao she and a therapist were available. “I couldn’t get an appointment when I felt I needed it the most,” she said.

As a remedy to that problem, Massage Concepts’ therapists work full time, “I wanted people to be able to walk in on the spot and have a therapist available,” said Chao, noting that even on Saturdays and Sundays clients can book a treatment for the same day with a one-or-two-hour lead time.

As they continue to grow, Chao said she knows that will be the challenge to be able to keep that promise.

Massage Concepts has 10 peaceful and quiet treatment rooms, including a couples massage room, a room especially for prenatal massage and one combo room that has a reclining, relaxing chair for foot massage along with a massage bed. The room has been popular for families as Massage Concepts allows children to come in while

13164 Polvera Ave, San Diego CA 92128 $1,949,000 - $2,149,000

adults are having a massage to sit quietly in the chair alongside the bed. Chao said the chair in the combo room has also been used by local High Bluff employees who come to work in the chair while getting a massage.

The largest treatment room is a foot reflexology room with four chairs, allowing it to host small group parties.

The foot reflexology treatment begins with a foot soak in an herbal bath while the upper body is massaged. The therapist then works the legs and feet for a total 45-minute treatment.

“It’s a good relaxing experience,” Chao said.

A lot of people ask if they serve champagne or have a Jacuzzi tub but Chao said they are not a day spa and are not trying to be one, “We want to make it as affordable as possible to the public,” Chao said.

For summer, specials include a 60-minute foot reflexology massage for $39 and a 60-minute Swedish massage for $49.

“We are family-owned, not a big chain,” said Chao, a working mom who is proud to be a woman business owner. “Our goal is to become a part of the community and provide a service to local residents.”

Chao has made it as easy as possible to make an appointment online at massageconceptsdelmar.com. For more information, call (858) 847-2777. Massage Concepts is located on the second floor, near Sammy’s at Del Mar Highlands Town Center, 12925 El Camino Real, suite J25, in Carmel Valley. Massage Concepts is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., open late for those with busy schedules.

oday’s chamber of commerce business fairs are like tiny trade shows, with the room typically ringed with sponsor tables.

Each sponsor, anxious to grab your attention, has banners, displays, brochures, bowls of candy, and SWAG. SWAG (Stuff We All Get) is the collection of pens and other stuff one typically collects at shows, sorts through at home, and (hopefully) keeps.

With a company’s name imprinted on it, the item’s supposed to make an impression on me. I should then think of them when I’m ready to buy.

Sometimes it works. Other times I just add hand exercisers, flashlights and keyrings to my donation pile.

But what if an ad specialty isn’t easily identifiable by the target audience?

Consider the local financial services firm giving out black rubber things with tabs on them. It’s 2.25 by 3.25 inches and has a sticky back.

I took one at a recent chamber event, not because I needed their services or an unidentified black rubber thing, but out of curiosity.

Research revealed it’s a smart phone card pocket.

Most people keep their storage card inside the smart phone itself, so I contacted the company’s marketing manager for more information.

She explained it’s for storing business cards on the backside of your cell phone.

Ohh! Now it makes sense.

If your freebie isn’t intuitive, you may be wasting your money. Your gifts reflect on you, so be careful choosing your tchotchkes to ensure an impression of: 1) Quality. Cheap items suggest you provide bad service.

2) Market differentiation. Giving away what your competitors provide says to customers “We’re all the same.”

3) Memorability. Providing edibles means you’re almost instantly forgotten.

4) Usability. If you’re giving something that’s a little different (like this rubber thing), provide instructions at the table.

Remember: People are oftentimes grabbing your goodies and moving on without asking questions of the lone representative. SWAG must be understandable, usable and provide value to help you achieve your sales objectives.

Before purchasing anything, consider the experience from the customer’s perspective. Make sure your item relates to your clientele’s needs and isn’t just “cute”.

And ask someone matching your customer profile if your item’s enough to make them want to learn more about your organization.

If the answer is no, then why do it?

With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Renovation ideas for every room in the house (Family Features) If your favorite room is outdated and dingy, a renovation may be all you need to make the old feel new and to fall in love with your home all over again.

Upgrading your home can be a big job, and unless it's part of a pre-move-in plan, few homeowners find it practical (or even possible, from a budget standpoint) to execute a large-scale project. However, tackling the updates one room at a time and focusing on small changes that bring big returns can put those overdue enhancements well within reach.

Kitchen

It's the heart of the home, and it's where many homeowners sink big money to make upgrades. Kitchen renovations don't have to require a second mortgage though. Re-facing rather than replacing cabinetry can bring about a whole new look for a whole lot less money. This is a good option when the existing cabinets are still in good working condition and you're just looking for an aesthetic change. Other small-scale options include swapping out the countertop and sink, changing the lighting fixtures and updating tired floors with contemporary wood or tile.

Bathroom

When plumbing is involved, project costs can skyrocket, but there are some relatively simple ways you can give your bathroom a facelift on a modest budget. For starters, swap out all the fixtures from lighting to faucets. A new vanity is another instant upgrade, whether you opt for an updated version of the original or select a whole new style for a completely fresh look.

Also consider upgrades that can increase natural light and fresh air without compromising privacy, such as the addition of skylights to your ceiling, or "fifth wall," which can completely change the lighting dynamic of the room. In addition to balanced, natural light, skylights like those from Velux can open to help refresh your space and keep it odor- and moisture-free.

For extra style and light control, consider complementing the room's decor with skylights featuring colored blinds, which are available in more than 100 colors and styles, and also offer remote control operation for convenience in raising and lowering the blinds and opening skylights to let in fresh air. Learn more about making the fifth wall part of your renovation plan at whyskylights.com.

Living Room

A common space where the family gathers is likely to sustain the greatest wear and tear, and because you spend so much time there, it's also a room where you're likely to find a list of things that irk you. Creating a new color scheme is a simple fix that transforms the space, but changing the palette of the walls is just the beginning. Also consider taking your redesign to the ceiling with vibrant colors, creative wallpapers or even exposed beams. Round out the room by swapping out lamp shades, adding vibrant throw pillows, replacing old curtains or blinds, or tying the color scheme together with a new area rug.

Bedroom

In your private sanctuary, all the typical options for updates apply for sure. However, this is a space where the furnishings can be an especially impactful way to influence the ambiance, especially if a construction project in the room where you sleep is impractical. Changing out the style of the bed frame and complementary pieces creates a whole new vibe for the room. Then bring in a new collection of textiles for the bedding and drapery to help round out the pseudo-renovation.
