The Balloon March on Morena

by James LaMattery

On September 27th at 10am residents will be conducting a Balloon march along Morena Blvd. Everyone is invited to attend. The march is designed to help our neighbors visualize the height and density impact to our community if we allow the city of San Diego to amend our Community Plans in Bay Park, Bay Ho, and Linda Vista. We will be marching the 10 ft diameter large helium balloon at a height of 60 ft. beginning at Clairemont Drive where the proposed Trolley station will be built, south along Morena Blvd to Tecolote Rd

where another station is proposed. We need volunteers who can video tape the balloon positioning while it is being marched.We have also invited local news stations to film the event. One thousand participants would be good, two-thousand would be better as we raise our voice in unison. For more information, please visit www.raisetheballoon.com.To hear a one on one interview with James LaMattery, spokesman of Raise the Balloon and Chris O’Connell, Publisher of the Clairemont Times visit www.WSRadio.com “Neighborhood Show”

One on One by Chris O’Connell, Publisher & Host of the Neighboorhood News Hour Show

The “Neighborhood News Hour” Radio show, which I introduced last month is moving along. We recorded two more shows in the month of August. All four shows can be heard on www.WSRadio.com “Neighborhood Show” It is live so you never know where the conversations will go. The August 9th show had two guests on Kevin Casillo who is a local real estate broker and is also the Executive Director at the LiveWell San Diego Senior Center in Clairemont. Kevin and I had a nice talk about real estate in general around San Diego as well as what is happening at LiveWell. From the upcoming 5k race (see page 16) to the many different programs LiveWell has to offer. My second guest was James LaMattery the official or unofficial spokesperson for the Rasie the Balloon March (page1) on Morena Blvd to be held later this month. Speaking with James you really understood some of the concerns of local residents. What impact say the trolley and future development could have in the area. James made it clear Raise the Balloon is not trying to force feed an agenda but rather educate

through a visual what the future could look like. The August 23rd show well, I think I gained weight just talking with these guys in the studio. The Neighborhood News Hour turned into the Neighborhood “Food” Hour. Ryan Fulton the General Manager & Executive Chef from Dan Diegos in Bay Park came on to talk about recipes, their support of the local community & much more. Jim Phillips the General Manager of Studio Diner discussed the history of the diner its location as well some menu items. Gary Zendell chef/owner of Isa.Bella Pizzeria & Craft Beer Garden in Bay Ho discussed the how & why he opened his restaurant and menu items. Congratulations on celebrating 1 year in September! For the final segment all three came on to talk shop. All three as well as their teams work hard and are putting out great creations. This show will make you hungry and here are three local family friendly restaurants I highly recommend. Guests for the next show ... stay tuned.

Recycle Your Washing Machine Gray Water by Ted Svendsen

It is now permissible to use gray water on our yards instead of our very limited municipal water supply for ground cover, plants, shrubs, hedges, trees etc. (Effects on delicate plants, lawns and produce unknown).

All you need is a rectangular 30 gallon trashcan (tank) and a low cost 1/3 HP submersible water pump with a floating on/off toggle switch, available locally. A rectangular tank behind your machine takes less room than a round tank (my plastic tank is 14” by 20” by 28” deep). It has enough room for the pump’s floating off/on switch to operate. Keep the vertical lift (head) as low as possible for maximum discharge volume, ideally just above the top of your tank (see picture). Most pumps come with a 1.25” pipe thread outlet. Bushings from local hardware stores easily adapts a garden hose or a water sprinkler. Prevent lint from being pumped into your yard with nylon stockings. Slide one stocking inside the other.Attach the ‘double-ply’ nylons to the machine’s discharge hose with a hose clamp. Is easily replaced and is an effective lint filter for numerous wash cycles. No more floods from a stopped up standpipe or sewer pipe.And should you decide to move your washer, i.e., from the house to the garage, no need to plumb in a sewer line or standpipe. Here is a simple 1/2” PVC tubing sprinkler system to carry the gray water to your yard.Wherever you want a sprinkler jet, drill a 1/4” hole in the PVC sprinkler tube. Cut a piece of PVC an

inch long and remove a 1/2” wide piece lengthwise (see picture). Snap the PVC piece onto the PVC tubing. Sliding the piece partially over the jet will restrict or shut off water flow (see picture) making it an effective valve. Unrestricted, the pump will shoot a stream 2 or 3 feet from the jets nearest the pump, down to a trickle at the last jet. My own PVC sprinkler tube of 25 jets allows my pump to discharge enough water in 5 minutes to empty my tank and water a 60’ Cape Cod hedge.

A FREE Life Saving Program for Seniors National safety statistics show that adults age 65 and older are two times more likely to die in a home fire than any other segment of the population, and for those over age 75 that risk nearly quadruples.Yet, thousands of seniors throughout San Diego and Imperial counties live in homes without a working smoke alarm. One way seniors can improve the chances of escaping a home fire is by making sure their home is equipped with a working smoke alarm. The Burn Institute’s Senior Smoke Alarm Program provides seniors with FREE smoke alarms and installation. Fire service personnel from various fire departments throughout the county and other volunteer groups assist the Burn Institute year-round in installing the smoke alarms.To qualify for this lifesaving program, you must be 62 years or older, own your own

home, and not currently have a working smoke alarm.To sign up for this program, call the Burn Institute at 858.541.2277 ext. 18. “One way seniors can improve the chances of escaping a home fire is by making sure their home is equipped with a working smoke alarm, and to maintain those alarms by changing the batteries at least once a year,” said Susan Day, Burn Institute Executive Director. The Burn Institute is a local, nonprofit health agency dedicated to reducing the number of burn injuries and deaths in San Diego and Imperial counties through fire and burn prevention education, burn care research and treatment, and burn survivor support services.

Medicating America’s Youth by Shauna Fisher Today, more than 1 million children take anti-psychotics every year, with under 5 years old being the fastest growing population. 75% of these drugs are used ‘off label’ - not even approved by the FDA for the condition the doctor is treating. The other class of drugs that is showing rapid growth, is stimulants, used primarily for ADD and ADHD. Both classes of drugs can have severe side effects on development.

From the Desk of District 2 Councilmember Ed Harris As summer ends and the second half of my council term gets underway, I wanted to share some information and provide you with an update from my Council District Two office. Moraga Traffic Calming – At a community meeting I recently convened regarding speeding on Moraga Avenue, Bay Park residents had three traffic calming requests. They asked for the installation of stop signs on Moraga Avenue at Tacoma Street, allway stop signs at Cadden Way and Paducah Place, and a reset of the speed limit from 25 mph to 30 mph on Moraga Avenue between Moraga Place/Kenosha Avenue and Clairemont Mesa Boulevard. The San Diego Police Department is also providing more enforcement along the street on Moraga Avenue. The Traffic Engineering Division of the City’s Transportation Department has funding for V-Calm signs that show drivers how fast they are driving, and will install them on Moraga Avenue as soon as possible. In October, I’ll be convening another traffic calming meeting to hear resident concerns about speeding along Huerfano Avenue. The date for that meeting has not been determined so please contact my office as October nears for additional information if you would like to attend. Medical Marijuana Dispensaries – In July, I met with representatives from the City Attorney’s office and Neighborhood Code Enforcement, and learned there were 63 illegal marijuana dispensaries still remaining in the City, with 17 of those located in District Two. Neighborhood Code Enforcement and the City Attorney’s office are actively working on getting these storefronts closed. Progress is being made, however, this process is time consuming and often involves months of litigation. At my request, City staff will report on current efforts to close down illegally operating dispensaries during the Public Safety and Livable Neighborhoods Council Committee meeting on September 18. Newspaper Racks – Last month, my staff and I joined community mem-

bers to commence an audit of illegal newspaper racks installed on Garnet Avenue, from Jewell Street to Mission Boulevard. A 2011/2012 grand jury report found that 30% of the newspaper racks in the City of San Diego were either illegal and/or not being maintained. The data compiled during the audit included locations, types, and operators of noncompliant newspaper racks, and has been provided to Neighborhood Code Enforcement for purposes of noticing and citing. Public Safety in Ocean Beach – With the generous donation from the company SIDUS, my office secured two additional security cameras which were recently installed on the San Diego Police trailer in the parking lot at the foot of Newport Avenue in Ocean Beach. Those cameras, along with signage indicating the cameras are operational, are installed to deter disruptive and sometimes illegal behavior taking place along the seawall. Community leaders have told me the cameras are making a difference. Mission Beach Flies – Thanks to business leaders, community members, and the City, there has been a strong response to help control the fly problem in Mission Beach. More trash is being securely bagged, and more signage is up in businesses and vacation rentals educating people on steps they can take to help reduce the fly population. Additionally, the City is issuing more violation notices for trash that is not property bagged. With additional hot weeks ahead, I would encourage everyone to tightly tie up their trash bags, and secure trash bins inside garages to avoid scavenging. There is more work to be done, and my office will continue to collaborate with City staff to identify further solutions to alleviate the problem. With a goal of improving the quality of life in District Two, I know great things can happen when residents are engaged in their community. As always, I appreciate the opportunity to represent you.

Triathlon is not exactly the Sport of Kings by Daniel J. Smiechowski

What motivates someone in pushing their body to the limit for fifteen hours or more in a single event? Unlike horse racing, this sport appeals to all the Kings subjects.The human mind works in mysterious ways.Triathlon may well be defined as the sport of masochists. Indeed, the sport of cycling has long been associated with suffering so adding swimming and running to the mix creates a more balanced sense of discomfort. One of the first triathlons started on Mission Bay during the early seventies and has since morphed into a worldwide phenomenon.There are triathlons in virtually every country on the planet. Several years ago in a standing joke, I stated that I competed in Saint Denis, France so after an eleven hour flight to the Parisian Suburb, I quickly boarded a flight for Saint Denis, Reunion Island making it another continuous eleven hour flight to this speck of land in the Indian Ocean. In speaking of the mind and triathlon, it should be noted that perhaps more triathletes and water polo players are recruited into the ranks of Navy Seals than from any other discipline. Considering that many so-called average competitors swim fifty meters under and

then fifty over during workouts, it’s plain to see that these folks have the mettle to persevere. The beautiful thing about this sport is that one is never too old to join in the fun. I’ve been at it since the seventies and at sixty, I still feel young and ready to hammer the roads. Once you hit a certain age the competitor’s drop precipitously making it easier to win your age group. Our local Mission Bay Triathlon for example has an average of about six to seven athletes in the sixty to sixty four year old age group.There was a cyclist in Europe not long ago that barely topped the century mark! Staying fit is not only personally rewarding but reduces our national debt, frees up overcrowded hospitals, relieves stress and tension, improves self esteem, is environmentally friendly, makes for safer neighborhoods by travelling on foot and in the long run saves money and brings personal happiness.As hard core triathletes say,“Go hard or go home.” See you on the roads and stay fit! Be nice, do good deeds and don’t be a stranger as we at the Clairemont Times value your participation.This column is devoted to Juan Carlos Vinolo, the seriously injured cyclist on Fiesta Island from a few weeks ago.

A quote by James Thurber,“It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers” inspires Tina Rysedorph to continue looking for new and interesting ways to connect people with nature as she takes them on the trails of Tecolote. Trent Robertson, Susan Breisch, and Linda Stafford, are avid birders and trail guides who enjoy passing on their knowledge, appreciation, and concern for the canyon which is often described as “an island of nature in a sea of development.” Eloise Battle, a local hero associated with saving Tecolote Canyon from development, explains “Tecolote Canyon is an environmental treasure, one of the last remaining accessible coastal canyons in our county.There are several endangered and listed species to be found here.” She also sums up the mission of TCIG best, “Our goal is to share the secrets of the native environment with the public so there will be caring citizens and future stewards who understand the need to preserve this fragment of days past.”

Syros is one of those villages where each shop closes from 2 – 5 (ish) and if it happens to be a particularly warm or sunny day they open whenever they like. So if you see something the first time, buy it right then as you may

house’s cascading down to the harbor. It’s one of those islands that is much less crowded with tourists and boasts more Greeks than many of its neighbors. It was our 8th or 9th time visiting Greece and the Greek islands, and our first time on Syros. A friend from Santorini recommended we stay at a hotel called PLOES. Never knowing what to expect, even if referred by friends, we had no idea what we would find. What we did find was pure heaven. It’s not just a hotel, it is an old estate built right into the cliffs overlooking the most amazing sea and sunset view. Imagine after walking and hiking steep streets, cliffs all day only to

It’s a process to make this coffee as it can only froth (three times) not boil. We’re not religious, but the old churches and cathedrals are a must see. We stepped into one late at night, lights were on, candles all aglow, incense burning when out of the shadows appeared an elderly woman and began giving us what we can only hope was the history of the church. She

was speaking Greek only and mine is limited, she was either giving us history or collecting money for the homeless. So we gave her a Euro or two Just in case she was a nun and smiled as we said,“Kalinixta”, Greek for goodnight and we headed for the casino. You’ll need a “diplos” (double) coffee once you set off to explore this amazing little village. As mentioned the houses just cling to the hillside, mostly white with some pale pastels that just seem to glow during sunset. For our “strolls” start out early as to reach the top can be a bit daunting. But well worth it when you finally reach the top of Ano Syros.This was built in the 13th century and here you can visit the Catholic basilica of San Giorgio.

“The Search” by Gary Hyde

I am going to start the Neighborhood Beat this month with what I think is a great opportunity for anyone trying to get in the music business.This is a search for great talent, whether you are a solo performer or a band. It doesn’t matter what kind of music you play, you WILL get a chance to show off your talent exactly the way you want. This is a worldwide search but I really hope all the young bands and performers in the local neighborhoods turn out for this event. Pacific Records in conjunction with Gary Hyde Music and The Clairemont Times neighborhood newspaper present “The Search” We are looking for some great new recording artists to participate in “The Search” CD project. It will be released and promoted worldwide by Pacific Records.All artist’s selected for “The Search” CD will receive a standard recording royalty. Here’s what you do: Go to Pacific records.com, click on

the A&R tab.There you will be able to listen to song demo’s of the tunes available for you to record (new songs will be added weekly).When all of the songs have been put on the site, you will have between 50-100 songs to choose from. Remember these are song demo’s.This Search is all about you or your band transforming great songs into magnificent recordings worthy of national release. Great songs can be put into almost any genre of music, so don’t let categories stop you from showing off your artistry. Once you have finished recording your song, you then submit it to Pacific Records. How to do that will be on the site (submitting process will begin in October).

Bumped by Paul McCartney by Gary Hyde

“It was 20 years ago today Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play” (The Beatles). Well, for me it was 40 years ago, I was a young kid in Nashville, fresh out of Clairemont, recording in Buddy Killen’s Soundshop Studio. Buddy was also vice president of Tree International Publishing. I had signed a songwriter and recording deal and was ready to take the music business by storm, or so I thought.The engineer for the session was Ernie Winfrey a guy with huge recording credits. Everything was falling into place. My drummer was the late Larrie Londin, the greatest drummer I ever played with. I was in a band with him at my grandfather’s nightclub.What a great guy. His recording and live credits would take up this whole article. (Elvis, Supremes, Smokey Robinson, Steve Perry, Neil Young, Olivia Newton-John, Chet Atkins just to name a few. We recorded at night and one night Ernie comes to me and say’s,“Gary, we’re not going to be able to record tomorrow night, another session has been booked.” I’m thinking a big country act is coming in, so I said Ernie,“Who is it?” “Gary your being bumped by Paul McCartney.”

I did not expect that answer. If you’re going to get bumped I thought, at least it was a Beatle. Buddy Killen had found Paul, his wife, 3 girls, and the band, a place to hang out for a few weeks before he was to go back out on tour.That place was Tree songwriter Curly “junior” Putman’s farm.When he came into the studio, Paul recorded a song his father wrote (Eloise), and a song about Curly Putman’s farm (Junior’s Farm). Another song Paul recorded at Soundshop Studio was (Sally G) a song inspired by his trip down to the world famous Printer’s Alley. Printers alley in those days was an unbelievable place for music. My Grandfather Jimmy Hyde owned the biggest club in Printers alley “The Carousel”. Musicians like Chet Atkins, Floyd Cramer, Boots Randolph and Hank Garland played there for years. Nashville was a great experience for a kid that grew up in Clairemont. Writing songs is still the same, but life experiences like these have changed with the times. I still have tapes and out takes, from Paul McCartney’s session because Ernie was the engineer.Anyone who grew up with the Beatles can appreciate how much fun it was for me, to go back in the studio after Paul left, and play and record on the same piano he used. And that is my getting bumped by the Paul McCartney story.Talk to you next month.

An Autism Friendly Performance of Into the Woods at The Old Globe Theatre by Bartley Stratton

Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Cinderella are some fairy tale characters many (if not all) of us grew up with. Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s musical, INTO THE WOODS, blends many classic fairy tale characters together with a twist. The Old Globe in Balboa Park had a special needs and autism-friendly performance of the show on August 9th. Artistic Director, Barry Edelstein, explained that “Disney pioneered this program in New York City for the big Broadway musicals. The Globe was the first regional theater to do a sensory friendly performance. We kicked it off with HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS in 2012.” The sensory friendly version of

INTO THE WOODS allowed for families to bring their children to a welcoming environment where they were not hushed by other audience members. The volume was turned down, the house lights were on and there were lanterns on the side of the stage that lit up when loud noises were about to happen. The day before the show, audience members were invited to a pre-show visit where they were encouraged to “meet your seat”. This helped kids become comfortable in Balboa Park as well as the theater itself. Erika Ramirez Lee of the YMCA “Teens in Motion:After School Program for Teens with Disabilities” was very thankful for the Old Globe opening their doors to her students. She explained how over 100 kids were

attending and looked forward to the performance. Before the show started, the actors walked on stage, waved at the kids and made small talk. Once the lights began to dim, one of the actors told the audience to feel comfortable. If that meant getting up during the show to step out, that was fine.The children really enjoyed the show. They laughed, clapped, were upset and showed other emotions. It was a great experience for everyone. Be on the lookout for the next special needs and autism-friendly show,

HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS, this holiday season!

and/or hyperactivity. Stimulants have side effects such as: Growth suppression, over-stimulation, agitation, weight/appetite loss, violence, psychosis, mania and suicidality. The pharmaceutical industry is a 330 billion dollar industry with 10 million of America’s kids taking prescription medication. So if pills are not always the answer or only partially, what do we do? Sometimes symptoms are misleading and taken out of context. Some researchers have found that kids can improve or even ‘cured’ with a proper diet, screening for exposure to toxins (metal, lead, mercury) and an increase in sunlight exposure and exercise. One study found that Cognitive-Behavioral treatments to be as effective as medications for depression. Please note though, that severe cases can rarely be treated without any medication. The behavior is simply too extreme, unmanageable and destructive to themselves and/or others to do without medication.

occur. I recollect children, mostly ages 2 through 10, whose medical information I was reviewing to approve services, presented with horrific behaviors. Kids who have been kicked out of multiple pre-schools, forced to wear helmets to not injure themselves when they bang their heads, punching and kicking other students and teachers. These kids, however, were not just receiving antipsychotics, but 1:1 therapy and aides at school and home for as much as 20+ hours a week. The medications stabilized them enough to be less destructive. Also, studies show that ignoring long term depression and anxiety in the pre- and post-adolescent phase may increase the risk for suicide or acting out homicidal fantasies. And children with ADD/ADHD treated without medications, can be so impulsive, they are more prone to multiple accidents, ER visits, etc. But what about those ‘drug intoxicated brains’? This is a balancing act that is quite precarious but can be achieved with some general techniques. First, medications alone will not fix the problem, they are only to be used to stabilize and soothe the child’s brain enough to do the therapeutic work

necessary for recovery. They should be used with extreme caution, in the smallest dose possible and the least amount for as little time possible. Parents, you must do your homework. Study and research any medications and always use them in combination with some form of therapy and community support. Find a psychiatrist specializing in treating children and insist on more services and direction than simply popping a pill. If your doctor cannot help you, find another. Ask the doctor about the side effects, if it has been FDA approved for kids with this disorder, and if there are any other additional alternatives you can try first, prior to medication. Most would prefer not putting their growing child something that causes unknown changes in their brain. Some do not have a choice but know that many do. Just know that you know your child best and stay educated and hopeful. Shauna Fisher holds a Master’s degree in Social Work from Rutgers University.
