Entertainment

Kim Harris Special to the Village News An estimated 12,000 people attended Murrieta’s 23rd anniversary celebration on Saturday, June 28 at California Oaks Sports Park. The day-long event offered entertainment in the way of carnival rides, games, vendors and fireworks, enough to entertain old and young alike. The city of Murrieta was incorporated on July 1, 1991 with only 24,000 residents. Since then, the city has grown by leaps and bounds. An estimated 107,500 residents and 9,600 businesses now call the city home. Saturday’s event underlined just how important Murrieta’s incorporation has become to those who choose to call the city home.

Hard News De Luz home invasion robbery leaves woman bound; two suspects still at large “The caller reported seeing subjects unloading items from two vehicles and carrying the items into a nearby motel room.” Wade reported. “The items described by the caller matched items taken during the recent home invasion robbery.” The Temecula Police officers, on scene, made contact with two males as they exited the motel room, who then fled on foot. “Aaron Facciponti (19 years) from Pomona and Claudio Higuera (42 years) from West Covina were arrested without incident,” Wade said. “Higuera was also arrested on an outstanding warrant for violating the terms and conditions of his parole.” Many pieces of the victim’s personal property were recovered, linking the apprehended suspects to the crime, however two additional suspects are still at large. Wade urged anyone with information regarding this investigation to respond to Detective Jeff Fisher at the Temecula Police Department Riverside Sheriff’s Southwest Patrol Station – (951) 696-3000.

DE LUZ - On the afternoon of June 25, 2014 at approximately 1 p.m., four men forced entry into a residence located on the 19000 block of Carancho Road in De Luz, where they blindfolded and bound a female victim, stealing multiple personal items from the house. “The victim reported to the deputies that four suspects forced their way into the home after asking the resident for directions.” stated Riverside County Sheriff Deputy John Wade. “The suspects brandished a handgun, tied the victim up and blindfolded her while they ransacked the residence.” According to the report, numerous identifiable pieces of personal property were stolen from the residence as the victim lay tied and blindfolded. “The victim was able to free herself and the Sheriff’s Department was called.” Wade said. As detectives began their investigation on scene of the crime, Temecula Police officers received a dispatch regarding suspicious activity in the parking lot of a local hotel, Old Town Temecula’s Rodeway Inn, according to reports.

WILDOMAR - A Wildomar 19-year-old with diminished mental capacity who wandered away from home today, triggering a citywide search, was found a couple of miles from his residence, in good condition, authorities said. David Alan Soto disappeared around 7:30 this morning from his family’s home in the 35000 block of Chloe Court, said Riverside County sheriff’s Lt. Zachary Hall. Soto, a schizophrenic with a 15-year-old’s mind, left the house without his GPS tracking device,

which is being repaired, Hall said. Deputies received a “prowler call” around 5:30 p.m. in the 21000 block of Amethyst Street -- roughly 2 miles walking distance from Soto’s house -- and the young man was found loitering at the location, according to Hall. “After receiving a quick medical checkup, he was reunited with his family,” Hall said. Soto left Elsinore High School in Lake Elsinore in November and took off into the nearby hills, where he apparently huddled for three

days. A sheriff’s helicopter crew sent to aid ground-based search parties spotted evidence that he was in the area, shortly after which a search-and-rescue team found him, dehydrated and malnourished but uninjured. A specially equipped off-road vehicle was driven up the hillside to retrieve him. A sheriff’s official told City News Service that the agency does not seek reimbursement for the costs of searching for individuals, even when they repeatedly wander off.

Trial begins for Lake Elsinore man accused of strangling wife RIVERSIDE - The body of a Lake Elsinore woman was lying facedown on a hallway floor, bound at the wrists and ankles, with a trash bag tied around her head when deputies found her, a detective testified today. “She appeared to have been dead for a while,’’ said Riverside County Sheriff’s Investigator Gary Bowen. “She had electrical cords tied around her wrists. There was another binding on her ankles, and there was a trash bag on her head. It was tied around her neck in a very tight knot.’’ Bowen recalled being overwhelmed by a “strong malodorous’’ smell from cat feces inside the single-story residence at 32560 Payne Street. “It was on every surface of the house,’’ the detective said. “It camouflaged the floor.’’ According to authorities, the victim, 66-year-old Jeannette Howard, apparently took in felines whenever and wherever she found them.

Her husband, 60-year-old Ted Preston Howard, could face 25 years to life in prison if convicted of the June 17, 2012 slaying of the woman. He has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. Deputy District Attorney Burke Strunsky today played a recording of the 18-minute 911 call that the defendant made around 4:50 p.m. that day to report his wife’s death. On the tape, the dispatcher repeatedly asks Howard what happened to his wife, but only gets flat, abbreviated responses. “Can you tell me what happened until the deputies get there?’’ the dispatcher asks. “No,” Howard replies. “How did it happen?” the dispatcher asks. “She’s dead,” Howard answers. “Did you kill her with a weapon?” the woman asks. “No,” Howard says. “Did you guys get into an argu-

ment?” the dispatcher asks. “No,” Howard says. “How long has she been dead?” the dispatcher asks. “I’m not sure,” he says. “Was your wife sick?” the dispatcher asks. “I think it’s just me,” Howard says. According to pathologists, Jeannette Howard died from asphyxiation as a result of the trash bag being wrapped around her head. The defendant has never made any admissions or given any clues as to what might have precipitated the killing. If Howard is convicted, a sanity trial will be held, at the end of which the same jury will be asked to determine whether he is mentally ill and capable of knowing right from wrong. Closing statements are scheduled Wednesday. Howard is being held without bail at the Robert Presley Jail in Riverside.

six men and six women who convicted the defendant informed Riverside County Superior Court Judge Edward Webster that they could not overcome an 8-4 split in favor of capital punishment, prompting Webster to declare the panel hopelessly deadlocked. The judge dismissed the jurors and scheduled a status conference for July 18, when the District Attorney’s Office will announce whether it intends to proceed with another penalty phase. If the prosecution elects not to do so, Morgan will automatically be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. During closing statements Tuesday, defense attorney Ryan Markson played up the fact that his client

Cook assailed the defense’s attempt during the penalty trial to turn Morgan into a “character from a Charles Dickens novel,” pointing to opportunities that the defendant had to leave a life of crime. “But he relished the gang life,” Cook said. “He killed not in the heat of passion or out of anger; he did it for some absurd notion of winning fame and respect.” Cook cited the testimony of jail inmates and Morgan’s former associates -- all of whom underscored the defendant’s penchant for “bragging” about his crimes, especially the murders. According to the prosecutor, Morgan posed a heightened “danger to society” because he had elevated status and was instructing

a jury in March deadlocked 8-4 in favor of conviction. The prosecution argued that Morgan killed the victims to gain rank in an all-black gang long at war with an all-Hispanic gang. Neither victim was a gang member. The defendant went to a birthday party at 1844 Enterprise Ave., near the UC Riverside campus, and opened fire on a group of people listening to music in the driveway, emptying his .38-caliber revolver before fleeing the scene. The case went cold until an inmate heard Morgan boasting about getting away with the crime and informed on him. By that time, Morgan had begun serving a sixyear prison sentence for a home invasion robbery.

Temecula breweries win medals at San Diego International Beer Competition Joe Naiman Valley News Correspondent

Picking an agent is one of those critical issues that can cost or save you thousands of dollars.

In REAL ESTATE, as in life, not all things are created equal. Hiring an agent should be like any hiring process, interview multiple agents to make sure you hire the right one!

Lake Elsinore’s Robin Ralls and Temecula Valley High School graduate Virginia Kunkel both entered the baked and decorated foods competition of the San Diego County Fair for the first time this year, and both won best of division awards. Ralls won best of division among candies while also winning first place in the truffles class for her java chocolate chip truffle in dark chocolate. “It far exceeded my expectations. My hope was to do well, to win a ribbon. Then I saw that blue ribbon next to my name and it was an extremely overwhelming, happy moment,” Ralls said. Kunkel won the best of division prize for cakes with her French chocolate mousse cake entry which also took first place in the chocolate class. “I was really, really pleased that they really liked my chocolate cake,” Kunkel said. Ralls is originally from San Diego County; she was raised in

This year’s San Diego County Fair was the first in which she had entered any food. “I entered it with extremely high hopes,” Ralls said. “I was confident and nervous going into it.” Ralls won ribbons for three of her entries. Her raspberry crème truffles entry took second place in the truffles class, and she also won an honorable mention ribbon in the fudge class for her creamy peanut butter fudge double layer with milk chocolate. “It was a very thrilling and exciting and wonderful experience,” Ralls said. Ralls had a total of five entries; she also entered butter toffee with almonds and plain fudge with no nuts. Kunkel also took a second-place ribbon for her banana bread with chocolate swirl which was entered in the bananas with or without nuts class of the quick breads and pastries division. Kunkel moved from Temecula to Oceanside two months ago. She

submitted three entries on-line by the May deadline but was not able to complete her decorated cake entry by the time the food itself had to be submitted. The entries are judged before the fair opens. A recipe accompanies the food, and the recipes of winners are used in the following year’s fair cookbook. “Looking forward to having my recipe in the recipe book next year,” Kunkel said. The participants, as well as those who visited the Home and Hobby exhibit on the day the fair opened, learned the results of the awards selection June 7. “I burst out into tears. I felt like I had won a beauty pageant,” Ralls said of her best of division award. “I’m already planning what I’m going to do next year,” she added. “My win has inspired me to try to start selling my desserts,” Kunkel said. “I’m excited.” ‘I’m very grateful to the fair and the staff for the opportunity,” Ralls said. “It was an absolutely wonderful experience.”

Tw o Te m e c u l a b r e w e r i e s won medals in the San Diego International Beer Competition. Refuge Brewery won two silver medals and a bronze medal. Black Market Brewing Company took home a silver medal. San Diego International Beer Competition entries were judged in May, and the competition was followed by the San Diego International Beer Festival during the San Diego County Fair. “We’re excited and honored to have won the awards. We think the San Diego International Beer Competition is a sophisticated competition,” said Refuge Brewery president and brewmaster Curt Kucera. “We were real excited about the medal. It was in a category with some internationallyrated beers,” said Black Market Brewing Company brewmaster and production manager Shaun McBride. Refuge Brewery earned the silver medals for its Illusion IPA (India Pale Ale) and Refugee Tripel brews, and a bronze medal for the company’s Blood Orange Wit beer. Illusion IPA is a hybrid Belgianstyle ale while Refugee Tripel is a Belgian-style pale strong ale. Blood Orange Wit uses wheat as well as fresh blood oranges. “We focus on Belgian-style beers primarily,” Kucera said. The medals gave Refuge Brewery awards for three of the four beers the company entered in the San Diego International Beer Competition. (The Shelter 9 IPA was the Refuge Brewery entry which did not earn a medal.) “Felt really good about that for sure,” Kucera said of winning medals for three of his four beers. Refuge Brewery has been open for approximately a year and a half. “We’re a relatively young brewery,” Kucera said. Kucera has been involved in

Paul Bandong Staff Writer Linfield Christian School in Temecula has announced the reorganization of its athletic department. Timm MacDonnell, who had been the Athletic Director for the past two years, has accepted a similar position at his alma mater on the East coast. The athletic department will now span K-12 grades (elementary, middle and high schools) under the leadership of John Broussard and Amber Young. The new department will be headquartered in the high school and will provide leadership for cocurricular athletic programming across all three levels. Broussard will serve as Linfield’s Athletic Director. He has been at Linfield for seven years with experience in administration at both the middle and high school levels. He has eleven years of coaching experience (elementary, middle school, freshman, JV and varsity). Broussard is the current president of the Christian Football League and the vice-president of the Inland Valley Inner Scholastic Association. Broussard played basketball at Linfield College in Oregon where he served as team captain and was awarded the 2003 Defensive Player of the Year. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Education, a Master’s degree in Curriculum instruction and a second Master’s degree in Educational Administration. Young will serve as Linfield’s Associate Athletic Director. She is also beginning her seventh year at Linfield. Since taking over Linfield’s Track & Field program in 2007, the team has won five Ambassador League Championships.

MOTORSPORTS from page A-1 track, which presented a number of daunting hills and curves for vehicles to maneuver. The event garnered participants of all ages. Some were relatively young while others were adults who have been involved with off-roading events for a number of years. One of the younger racers at the event was 12-year-old Hailey Deegan, daughter of motocross rider and Metal Mulisha founding member Brian Deegan. She competed in the modified kart class, which is the highest class for karts that people can compete in. The younger Deegan said she’s been racing for a little more than three years now and that she started around the time she was an eightyear-old. During that time her father had recently started racing karts in off-roading competitions and she said she expressed an interest in also racing. So on her birthday she received a Junior 1 (J1) Kart, the most basic form of kart to be pitted in competition. The karts are specifically geared toward younger drivers who are just getting into the sport of kart racing. She eventually moved on to the Junior 2 (J2) class more recently and within the last couple of competitions has ascended to the modified cart class. Deegan explained that there are a number of differences between junior and modified karts. She said junior karts shift gears manually and have a clutch whereas modified karts are automatic and tend to go at a much higher rate of speed. There’s also a difference in the driving style of the two karts, Deegan said. “One’s more momentum and the other one’s more slipping and sliding,” she said.

Deegan finished sixth on the track for the weekend’s competition, only her second time competing in the modified kart class. One of Brian Deegan’s associates at Metal Mulisha, Ronnie Faisst, was also at the competition, riding his Pro-Lite truck over curves and hills during the final race of the day on Saturday, June 28. Faisst might have gotten his start in motocross but he said he’s been interested in doing offroading for a while now. The weekend’s event marked his second time competing in an off-road event. Faisst rounded the curves nicely and kept up with the other riders in his class with little difficulty during one of the competitions until his vehicle spun out and he was left trailing behind the others. He ultimately finished last in his class. But it didn’t seem that way from the cheery faces and smiles of Faisst and the people that came with him at the event. Faisst said he was happy to be trying something new and was just looking forward to doing a little better each time. “Begginers can’t come out here and expect to win without any formal background,” he said. “As long as I’m getting a little better and having fun each time, that’s all.” Faisst and many others plan to return during the fifth installment of the Lucas Oil Regionals, which will take place at Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino on Saturday, July 19. “I’m going to do them all,” Faisst said of the remaining installments of the regional competition.

Local MURRIETA from page A-1 “We had many positive comments from our residents,” said Laura Frasso, special event coordinator for the city. “Each year the city tried its best to bring great entertainment with music and fireworks.” Members of the community came out in full force, bringing blankets, lawn chairs and picnic baskets for the annual event celebrating the city’s rich history and diversity. The Murrieta Birthday Bash is a tradition many residents have,” Frasso said. “They bring their families and come year after year. It brings them back to the hometown feel that Murrieta has, even with our growing population.” A small carnival was set up on site where kids and adults alike enjoyed rides, games and treats. One of the day’s most popular events, the Firemans’ Hosedown brought relief from the heat when firefighters from Murrieta Fire Department unrolled their hoses and sprayed down the crowd with thousands of gallons of cool, refreshing water.

“Keep in mind the city didn’t water the grass in that area of the park for about two weeks leading up to the event,” said Murrieta Fire Chief Matt Shobert, noting the city’s effort to conserve water without cutting the popular event. “We cut our hose time down by half this year, we only ran the hoses for just over 20 minutes and expended about 20,000 gallons of water.” Historically, the department runs the hoses for 45 minutes to an hour, Shobert said, adding the hose down is done over the grass to avoid wasting water. “They loved it and it’s been one of the highlights of that event for about 15 years now,” said Shobert. “We actually started doing it back then when it was a super, super hot day and it was almost a necessity to cool some folks down and it caught on like gangbusters and has become a showcase event over the years.” Other activities included live music by Southbound and Company and Rock Fantasy who performed tributes to musical legends Jon Bon Jovi and Mick Jagger. The evening ended with a fireworks spectacular viewed by residents and visitors all throughout the city.

“Each year we strive to make the event a little better and we hope the residents had a great time,” said Frasso. Organized by the City of Murrieta Community Services Department, this year’s event was sponsored by the University of Phoenix, Centerpoint Church of Murrieta and Navy Federal Credit Union.

Menifee dentist receives honor for art of dance Bill Zimmerman Special to the Valley News The house lights darken, the room quiets, and suddenly the spotlight illuminates two graceful figures that begin to glide across the floor in unison. Such was the scene at last year’s “Menifee’s Got Talent” show hosted by Arts Council Menifee. The featured dance performance was done by Dr. Ruth Bol and her partner. Bol’s performance added a theatrical presentation for the audience to enjoy, which complimented the show. Arts Council Menifee has selected Bol for its July recipient of its “Artist of the Month” honor. Dr. Bol’s artistic curiosity started as a young girl. Her passion in theater and the arts were

evident as a child. But her journey to the theater stage was met with hindrances. “I struggled with childhood obesity,” recalls Bol.At her heaviest, she was190 pounds and wore size 18 pants. Her mother was very concerned about her health and sought advice from a physician when she was an 11-year-old. The physician prescribed a weight loss diet and exercise plan. As a tool to assist in her battle with weight loss, she turned to dancing as her exercise. She began by creating several dance videos at home, and soon had built enough confidence to join her middle school dance and theater team. When she entered high school she had successfully shed over 60 pounds and even made the cheer-

leading team. She continued to enjoy dancing, and learned all of the technical elements including costumes, sets and lighting to complete the context of the work and the theatrical presentation of it for an audience. As Dr. Bol approached college, her focus turned to academics. Although she wanted to be a theater major, it seemed more practical to be a pre-med or dental major. Her heart for giving and wanting to help people was solidified by an Indian Health Scholarship, which assisted with the cost of her education. After graduating and working with American Indian Tribes full time, she chose to return to school to complete a pediatric dental residency. She started her private practice in Menifee

in 2009. It was here in Menifee where Bol’s passion for dance was rekindled. “I signed up for ballroom (and) Latin dance classes at The Ballroom Villa Incanta, and my instructor Samantha Potter, who has danced professionally for over 30 years and even performed in Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ video, inspired me to take dancing to a new level,” Bol said. She has learned several dances including Cha Cha, Rumba, Salsa, Waltz, East Coast Swing, and Fox trot. Dr. Bol is especially passionate about children. “I encourage kids to follow their artistic abilities and showcase them at the events hosted by Arts Council Menifee,” she said.

Her newest project, a “Zumbathon” fundraiser, will be hosted by Menifee fitness 24/7 on July 19th. The fundraiser will be coordinated by the Rotary Club of Menifee, which will donate a portion of the proceeds to Menifee’s new Boys & Girls Club. All youth and dancers are encouraged to come to this great event for our community in the spirit of dance and fitness. There will be a tribute to people who have motivated Dr. Bol to be fit, and to continue expressing her creativity through the art of dance. Zumbathon information can be found by visiting the Rotary Club of Menifee’s website: menifeerotary.com. For more information please visit: www.artscouncilmenifee. org.

IMMIGRATION from page A-1 Nationality Act (INA) Section 212(a) (6) (A), which limits the ability of illegal entrants to be admitted to the country. “We are tracking the expense this is having on our city and maybe we should send the bill to President Obama,” said Long in an interview after the press conference. President Barack Obama also gave a press conference on the illegal immigration situation Monday, asking for more than two billion dollars in funding to fight what he calls a humanitarian crisis. This current threat to our national borders and security is fueled by coyotes in Central America who advertise according to Long for up to $2,000 a head for a pathway to citizenship in America. “How we are currently handling illegal immigration as a country is showing those in Central America the coyotes are telling the truth, their kids and family members are finding a way to stay,” Long said. Long said he was told the detainees who are expected to arrive by 3 p.m. Tuesday will be families either a mother or father with children no criminals or unaccompanied children. Supervisor Jeff Stone worked with the Country of Riverside’s Health Department to provide a mobile health mobile so border agents can provide more health screenings if needed. “The undocumented immigrants will not be released into our community. They will be transported across the country to awaiting family and friends,” Long said. Community activist Diana Serafin spoke at the conference claiming she heard the detainees were already in Murrieta. “I am not spewing lies but they are here right now,” Serafin said. Long reported he investigated Serafin’s allegations and visited the Murrieta Border Patrol Station and found no one was being processed. Long encouraged the public to not spread rumors. Murrieta’s local government will be sending updates to local residents via the website (www.murrieta.org) and through social media. A Town Hall meeting is scheduled for 6:30 pm on Wednesday at Murrieta Mesa High School in Murrieta.

The public can call (951) 8374343 to get updated information about the transfer of the immigrants to Murrieta. The public can also send an email to Immigration@murrieta. org for more info. “We need to collaborate as a region and take our demand for change to Washington D.C. I cannot make

a change as one single Mayor. We need to collaborate with a clear and concise message that we are not going to stand for our countries laws to be violated,” Long said. To comment on this story online, visit www.myvalleynews.com.

Recent high school graduates never missed a single day of school Alex Groves Editor Murrieta Valley High School graduates Shyah Ghaseminia and Quentin Montoya may be headed to the next stages of their lives, but high school will be an experience that will stick with them for a long time to come. They’ll have plenty of memories of their school days, perhaps even more so than some of their peers. Unlike other students at Murrieta Valley, Ghaseminia and Montoya never missed a single day of school from kindergarten through the end of high school. They made it in for every single day’s lessons, and their record attendance was solidified when they graduated earlier this year. The students’ effort to never miss a day started as a friendly competition at the end of elementary school. Both Ghaseminia and Montoya had never missed a day of school throughout the time they were elementary school students. “When Shyah and I had both completed it for elementary school it became kind of a competition for us to see who would drop out first,” Montoya said. “And neither of us missed a day throughout high school, which was actually kind of fun to see.” Although in later years their motivation to be in school every day would be spurred on by the competition and an interest in academics, Ghaseminia and Montoya made it to elementary school every day for very different reasons. For Ghaseminia it was because her brother had made it to school every day and she wanted to be like him, and for Montoya it was because his parents made him go every day. Both said that they would later realize the value of getting an education and that desire to learn would be further bolstered by the friendly competition. The two would look for each other in the mornings to see if the other had not made it to school that day, only

to find that wasn’t the case. Still not everything was smooth sailing over middle school and high school. There were difficult times for both students, yet they made it to school in spite of those difficulties. “During my high school career I hit a little bit of a burn out,” Montoya said. “I kind of slacked off on my work, but what I learned through some of my classes, teachers and administrators was that if you ever hit a wall you should pick yourself up and keep going.” Ghaseminia faced a different set of difficulties in high school. When she was a freshman her mother was involved in a car accident and had to be hospitalized for six months. It was a difficult time for Ghaseminia and her family but she still found a way to make it in every day. “I still went to school every day because I knew she would want me to go and stay on the right path,” Ghaseminia said. Then during her sophomore year Ghaseminia would face difficulty again when she was diagnosed with anemia due to low hemoglobin levels. Rather than skip school to go to the doctor, she scheduled an appointment with a different doctor for one day. Both Montoya and Ghaseminia watched all their hard work pay off when they finally graduated on Friday, June 13 and again when they were presented an award from Murrieta Valley Unified School District for their perfect attendance several days later. Now the two graduates are college-bound. Montoya is planning on studying Computer Engineering at the University of California, Riverside and Ghaseminia will be studying Business at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska. Both plan to never miss a single day of college. To comment on this story online, visit www.myvalleynews.com

Pets

‘Paws to Read’ returns to the Temecula Library Kim Harris Special to the Valley News What do Pet Rocks, reading to dogs, and Skippyjon Jones all have in common? They are all part of Temecula Library’s summer reading program, “Paws to Read.” The annual program kicked off in early June and is just one way to encourage kids to grab book and continue their reading adventure even though school is out for the year. “Studies have shown that children who are reading over the summer retain the reading skills that they gained during the previous school year whereas children who don’t regress a bit and have to catch up at the beginning of the school year,” said youth services manager Ginger Safstrom. “It’s a very positive thing.” To participate, children sign up with the children’s librarian and are required to read at least one book each week. To make things more interesting for the participants, there are a variety of programs including performances by professional programmers. Kids earn a prize each week by visiting the library and reading at least one book. Children who aren’t reading yet can be read to by a parent or an older sibling. This year, Tad Hills is the featured illustrator and Rocket, a fictional dog who is featured in the books “How Rocket Learned to Read” and “Rocket Writes a Story”, is the mascot for the program. Safstrom said library organizers try to make the program as fun as possible because they want reading to feel like a part of a child’s vacation instead of an extension of the school year. They try to lighten the mood with contests, and one of those contests is titled, ‘Where is Skippyjon Jones?” As part of the contest children have to locate the titular character – a Siamese Cat with large ears – somewhere in the library. When they do find him, they can enter the contest to win a prize of some sort. However, that’s only one way that children can win a prize. A “Tally the Treats” contest where children guess the number of treats in Rocket’s treat jar, a “Pawparrazi Photo Contest” where children enter a photo of their pet and receive prizes based on different categories, and a Pet Rock contest are all ongoing during the program. Students can also enter for a special prize in a drawing when they read five or more books during contest time, according to Safstrom. “We also have a Critter Parade Pajama Storytime where youth staff members are telling stories on animal related things,” Safstrom said. “We have about 45 youth volunteers who man the station where children register and they come weekly to get the prize for that week and spin the prize wheel.”

Year round the library offers a program allowing kids to read to therapy dogs provided by local Temecula Valley Chapter of “Paws 4 Healing.” “Children make an appointment ahead of time and the parent fills out a permission slip, they come in and read to the dog for about 15 minutes,” said Safstrom. “They get to spend time with the dog and they get a sticker and a bookmark. Some of the dogs do tricks. It helps them to build confidence in a positive, nonjudgmental setting so they can improve those skills.” Children aren’t the only ones getting in on the fun during the program; youth and adults can also take part in various activities, too. Teen Services Librarian Dan Wood said that the library tries to make things a little more interesting for the teens so rather than “Paws to Read,” this year’s theme is a little more appropriate to what teens are interested in. “The reading theme for this year is “Creature Feature,” he said. “(The focus will be) old school movie monsters like Frankenstein and the Creature from the Black Lagoon, that sort of thing,” Wood said. “We thought that would be a little more fun for them… Teens like to be a little bit different.” Teens are encouraged to read whatever genre of book holds their interest once they sign up and receive their reading log. “They get it stamped and then

get a weekly prize,” Wood said. “Once they get a total of six books read they get a free book of their choosing from the collection that we have.” Prizes include gift certificates donated by local businesses including Epic Rollertainment in Murrieta, In-N-Out Burger and Incredible Cupcakes. “We were very thrilled with the fact that they are supporting us this year,” Wood said. “We have a great group of awesome sponsors.” Upcoming special events for teens include a “Creature Feature” trivia night on July 14 and “Making the Monster” with Brittany Kane, a professional makeup artist originally from Murrieta, on July 7. “She graduated from Murrieta Valley High School in 2004,” reference librarian Devyn Reynolds said. “She works up in Hollywood and has done things like the Knott’s Scary Farm make-up and some movies and music videos.” Kane will show examples of the work she has done in movies and music videos and will do five demonstrations using members of

the audience. She will show things like how to do scales and scarring and things like that,” said Reynolds. “In addition to that she will have make-up at the tables so the teens can actually learn how to do this on themselves. She’s very excited about it.” To sign up for the programs offered, teens should come by the library or call the reference desk and submit a permission slip signed by a parent or guardian to participate. Adults are also welcome to participate in the summer reading program, though it is a little less structured than the programs for children and teens, according to senior librarian Matilda Flores. “They pick up a reading log they have to get stamped then weekly we have drawings for different prizes,” Flores said. “What the adults do is pick up a book and write a book review on the book they have read. They fill out their contact information and then we put it into a drawing and pick a winner.” There is a recommended reading list for adults and those who

choose books from the list get two entries into the drawing instead of only a single one. “We know that adults are so, so busy, especially if they have children so we want to make it as easy as possible,” Flores said. “We do want to include them. I believe this is our fourth year we finally decided to offer one.” Special programs are offered for adults, too. Upcoming programs for adults include World Scholar, Adventures in Lifelong learning on July 9 and a concert by Saxaphone Player Jason Weber on July 27. “The concerts are something we are planning to continue; we have another in October and one in January,” Flores said. “We did get the green light to continue. It’s fun.” Programming and prizes for the annual summer reading program are sponsored by Friends of the Temecula Library.

Sultan Bakery and Grill provides fresh and authentic menu

Sultan Bakery and Grill’s chicken kabob is one of many popular offerings.

Alex Groves Staff Writer

W

hen a person steps through the door and enters Sultan Bakery and Grill in Murrieta, they’ll probably see the polished tables and swept floors and they’ll likely smell the fragrance of exotic spices wafting in from behind the counter where a myriad of Lebanese and Syrian dishes are prepared. Here people will find all sorts of dishes that hail from the Middle East such as hummus, kabob shawarma and baklava. In addition to these more familiar staples, the menu offers up a variety of flat breads that are prepared with fresh toppings and cooked only after a customer orders. Almost everything the bakery and grill makes is composed of fresh ingredients, according to Sultan’s owner, Tony. He said he’s always cooking up fresh batches of hummus, pita and garlic paste among a number of other items. Nothing is left to sit and nothing is more than a day old. But in the case of Tony’s restaurant, fresh doesn’t always mean easy. His hummus takes many hours to create. Chick peas are soaked for a full day in water before being boiled, ground and combined with a list of ingredients that includes

tahini, lemon, salt and more. For Tony, food is a labor of love. His restaurant is a means by which to share the foods of his homeland in Lebanon and his wife’s homeland in Syria. He said they decided to start a restaurant in November of 2013 because they wanted to have a place that not only offered traditional food staples like kabobs, but also a place that would offer up a variety of baked goods. Many area restaurants specializing in Middle Eastern cuisine might offer one or the other, he said, but not a combination of the two types of food.

Anaheim to get these kinds of items.” Tony said the dishes are a big hit with members of the Arab Community, who come to try traditional dishes that are a part of their heritage. But the restaurant also gets a large number of individuals who are completely new to Lebanese and Syrian food items, and when that happens Tony and other individuals associated with the bakery are willing to give them a crash course. “I give them a little input on the menu and they usually try something,” Tony said. “Then after Double cheese pie.

For those looking to get a taste of something both sweet and sour, there’s Sfeeha. This dish has a layering of finely ground beef with pine nuts, onion and tomato on a freshly baked pita bread. Yogurt and pomegranate syrup give the

dish its sweet and sour components. The food may be what draws customers in time and time again, but Tony said being kind is also important. He said he likes to make customers feel at home and is always eager to greet them. “That’s just the way I am,” he said.

Murrieta Library program shows teens how to make unique art from duct tape

The Murrieta Library held a Duct Tape Art Program for teens on June 26 and it attracted 20 participants.

Laura Rathbun Special to the Valley News Twenty teens got into a sticky situation when they participated in a duct tape art program at the Murrieta Library on June 26. “It’s sticky, sticky, sticky,” Teen Services Librarian Joyce Lea Brown said as she helped some of the teens make wallets from the all-purpose tape. The afternoon program was held in the library’s Community Room and attracted mostly girls though four boys attended to make wallets. Adult Services Librarian Laura Davis and six Murrieta Young Adult Advisory Council (MYAAC) members also helped the teens turn rolls of colorful and patterned tape into bows, roses and other creations. MYAAC member Gina Arce, 17,

sat at a table with three 12-year-old girls and showed them how to make roses on the ends of pencils or on a piece of wire. Arce had the girls cut about 2-inch squares of tape and demonstrated how to fold and attach it to the pencil or wire. The girls overlapped the squares to make petals and kept adding squares until they felt their rose was done. “That’s awesome,” Arce said to Becca Rutledge who was sitting beside her making a blue and white rose. Rutledge tried to cut more squares, but had difficulty with her scissors. “You guys having the same problem?” she asked the other girls at her table. She discovered her scissors were too dull to cut the thick sticky tape so she got another pair that worked better. Elissa Munoz, 13, was making a small dragon from different col-

ored tapes instead of bows like the girls sitting next to her. She did tape art before when she was in fifth grade so she had already made bows and wanted to do something more creative. MYAAC member Alison Lafferty, 19, liked Munoz’s dragon. “I love the front legs. Those are so cool,” she commented. Lafferty was instructing the teens how to make bows, which she said aren’t difficult to do. She was wearing two bows that she’d made in her hair. “I’m staying away from the wallets,” Lafferty said laughing. Rebecca Lam, 18, another MYAAC member, wasn’t afraid of tackling a wallet and made her fourth one during the program. “This is the best wallet I’ve made so far,” Lam said. She was holding a beige and pink er wallet that had a place for an identifica-

tion card with a plastic protective window. Lam plans on giving her other three wallets away to people as gifts. She’s made tape flowers that she’s given to her mother. Ella Rustin, 11, came to the program with her own tape to make a wallet. She’s made flowers, purses and even a skirt from tape. She said it took her two days to make the skirt. She hasn’t worn it yet, but she might this coming Halloween. “It’s fun to make stuff out of it,” Rustin said. She was using bright blue and metallic star patterned tapes for her wallet. Dania Barajas, 15, loves to wear cute bows to school so she made a red and white polka dot bow and put it on a choker. She used Velcro as a fastener for the choker and proudly showed it off to the other teens who all liked it. Brown thought the program

would take an hour, but it lasted over 90 minutes because the teens were having so much fun. Some parents came to get them and decided to let them stay a bit longer to finish their projects. Toward the end of the program there was a drawing for prizes. As their name was called, each of the teens got to come up to the front and select a gift certificate donated by local businesses for free burgers, pizza, ice cream and other treats.

The Movie Review: “Transformers: Age of Extinction” Robert T. Nickerson Special to the Valley News How is it that the Transformers franchise has gone from being a popular Japanese toy line into some of the most Americana of movies? I think it’s safe to say that every little boy at one point has played with a Transformers toy. It’s a winning combination; they get the ability to use the cars and trucks as racing toys while they can turn it into a fighting robot. But do these kids really follow some sort of story as they play? Not really. Most of the time, they just pretend that their fighting each other. Smash, boom, the world is saved, they move on to the next toy. Why do I bring this up? This is the formula that Michael Bay follows when making the live action movies. I never thought that any of the Transformers movies were technically good movies (though the first was at least fun) as they all contain similar lengthy running times, stories that seem to forget logic and loud battles that go on longer then both World Wars! It’s pretty obvious that we don’t come in to Transformers for an intellectual conversation, but I do expect something that’s at least fun. “Transformers: Age of Extinction” does not define what a fun blockbuster should be. Gone are Shia LaBeouf and the military point of view. Instead, we have a robotics inventor Cade Yeager (played by Mark Wahlberg) in Texas who does his best to provide for his teen-

age daughter Tessa (played by Nicola Peltz). He purchases a rusty truck that he tries to fix, only to find out that he’s discovered Optimus Prime, the leader of the autobot creatures from the previous movies. He learns that after the Chicago

war of the last movie, the CIA has started to hunt all aliens on earth, regardless if they’re good autobots or evil decepticons. Speaking of which, CIA agent Harold Attinger (played by Kelsey Grammer) discovers Optimus’ location and goes after

Cade and his daughter. They manage to escape the government forces thanks to Optimus and Tessa’s boyfriend Shane (played by Jack Reynor). Optimus calls out the few autobots left including Bumblebee and Hound (played by John Goodman) to discuss finding out what’s happened to their robot brothers. They make their way over to KSI, a successful robotics corporation, to find that the rest of the autobots have been dismantled so that the company’s head Joshua Joyce (played by Stanley Tucci) can make his own transformers. This includes a reborn decepticon, Galvitron, who was Megatron in the other movies I’m gonna stop there, because there’s only so much exposition I can talk about. I think that I liked this better then two and three, but that’s not saying much. “Transformers: Age of Extinction” manages to make the same mistakes from before. It’s also overlong at nearly three hours and battle scenes never want to end. The best way to describe all of the Transformers movies is like going to a loud party. At first, you do get into the over the top attitudes of everyone and their actions, but you eventually want to leave that party to do something else. Transformers just doesn’t know when to end. Most kids won’t have the patience to sit through a movie that long, even if robot fights are all they came for. Now are the robot fights good? A lot of them do have some inspired moments of creativity, especially when the dinobots come

in. Just seeing Optimus Prime riding a fire breathing metal T-rex was cool. But as I’ve said, the battles go on and on. They were dragged out for so long I got to the point of nearly nodding off. Surprisingly, the best moments come not from the action, but from our leading actors. Mark Wahlberg, Kelsey Grammer, and Stanley Tucci are fun to watch, bringing plenty of charisma. They all are in on the film’s goofy nature, and play goofy characters themselves. They even get in some really good laughs. But my consistent question is this, “Why does this movie have to be a whole three hours long?” I’ll give this one Autobot logo out of five. I can tell just on the tone that Michael Bay is getting sick of these Transformers movies and maybe he should call it quits from this point… or at least shorten his films to an hour and a half in length. That’s all anyone really wanted in the first place. To comment on this story online, visit www.myvalleynews.com.

REAL ESTATE / HOME & GARDEN

Choosing a real estate agent By Paul Bandong As much as buying a home is a huge purchase decision, selling that home is equally as important. What should the home be priced at? How long will it take to sell? Will the sale price be close to the asking price? You need to choose the right real estate agent to answer those questions, implement a marketing plan and navigate the sales transaction process. At the outset, let me say that we will not address the politics of choosing an agent who is a family member or the relationship dynamics of choosing a close personal friend. Problems or challenges with a home sale can put such relationships at risk. Many people receive real estate licenses each year, but relatively few make it a lifelong profession. Regardless, you want an agent with significant experience in the industry, a history of successfully selling homes in your price range, and one who is familiar with your neighborhood market. You want an agent whose references check out. A real estate agent or broker must be licensed in the state in which they work. Each state establishes

minimum standards for education, examinations and experience. Certified REALTORS® are real estate agents who have joined their local board or association of REALTORS® and the National Association of REALTORS®, a large professional trade organization. These real estate professionals subscribe to the association’s Code of Ethics, participate in annual extended education courses and also have access to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). The Council of Residential Specialists (CRS) website lists agents who specialize in various types of residential property sales. Here are some suggestions for choosing a real estate agent. Search online for real estate sites that list homes for sale/sold/foreclosures in your neighborhood. Make a list of the top three or four firms and agents that listed and sold those homes in the last 12 months. Scan the local newspaper for real estate ads in your neighborhood. Note the agencies with the most ads and most properties that they are marketing. Look for the open houses

in your neighborhood and visit the agent. See how the agent conducts him or herself and how knowledgeable they are about the neighborhood and the house. Test their reactions to your objections. Ask friends, neighbors, co-workers, and perhaps your accountant or attorney for recommendations. Compile a list from your research and from recommendations. Call the agents you’ve selected and set up “no obligation” listing presentations; in these meetings, the agent will provide you with information to assist you in making initial selling decisions as well as giving you reasons why you should list with him or her. Listen to more than one presentation and weigh the “pros and cons” of each. Do not make an impulsive decision; there is a listing period – usually three to six months -- that you are contractually obligated to honor. Before your first meeting, be sure to have a ballpark home value based on recent home sales in the area. Be sure to account for various amenities (pools, additions,

see AGENT, page B-2

Once you’ve spoken with a number of agents, narrow down your options to those who answered your questions satisfactorily.

suggestions on how to prepare your specific home for the market. Compare their suggested listing price with the ballpark price you calculated and ask for their basis of comparison if the difference is larger than $10-15,000. Beware of those agents trying to “buy your listing” by pricing your home too high for the market. Inquire about their number of listings per month, their home sales in the last three, six, and twelve months, how long it took them to sell the homes, and how close their selling price was to the listing price of homes they have sold. Do they cooperate with buyers’ brokers? What commission will they be offering to the cooperating broker who finds/brings the buyer? The lowest commission may not always be in your best interest. Incentive plays an important role in sales: advertising and service. Narrow down your options to those who answered your questions satisfactorily. Look for an agent that listens attentively to you, understands your goals, instills confidence, operates professionally, and has a personality style that you can relate to. If you want the most money for your home, choose the agent with the smallest difference between listing price and sold price. If speed is an issue, choose the agent with the highest productivity and the shortest listing to sold time frames. Real estate agents from large,

reputable firms often have a larger network of people who can spread the word about your home; they also typically have larger advertising budgets and have back-up persons with whom you can communicate. Agents that represent both buyer and seller (“dual agents”) are supposed to be working for both the buyer’s and the seller’s best interests. In many situations, this may be difficult to do. A large amount of money is at stake – buyers want the lowest price and sellers want the highest price. You want to work with an agent whose commission is dependent upon their willingness to fight for your best interest. Ask for references and call two or three sellers they have represented. Verify that that the agent handled the home sale to their satisfaction. Ask about any problems or anomalies encountered and how the agent handled the situation to everyone’s satisfaction. Ask about their communication skills, responsiveness and accessibility. For Sale By Owner (FSBO): This can be done, but is not typically an easy undertaking. The most common reason for this option is to save paying real estate commissions, usually 5-6 percent of the selling

Home Inspections Benefit Buyers and Sellers

by John Occhi & Mike Mason Everyone should know that when buying a home it is prudent to have an independent third party inspect the major systems of the home so that you’ll know what condition they are in. This helps to avoid the most expensive surprises. As a seller of a Temecula Valley and Murrieta Valley homes, MASON Real Estate recommends having a home inspection done prior to the marketing of your home. Then upon review, take care of what needs to be done prior to placing it for sale. By commissioning a pre-inspection and correcting any deficiencies’ you’ll be able to market the home as truly ‘turn-key’ enabling you to ask for the highest and best price the market will bear. The primary areas of interest focus around these 10 major systems that all homes have in common: APPLIANCES: Every appliance should be run for a full cycle and it should be verified that they are all working correctly and not leaking or giving off any unpleasant odors. The best appliances are the ones that match one another and are Energy Star certified. Remember, kitchens sell houses and upgraded appliances sell kitchens. HVAC: The Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning system and the hot water heater should all operate without emitting any loud noises or odors. All plumbing should be corrosion free, filters should all be clean and new and the system should show signs of regular maintenance.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: All outlets and switches should be grounded and working properly; GFCI outlets should be installed in wet areas; i.e. kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room and exterior walls. Do the panel and breakers appear to be modern and working properly? Do they have sufficient amps to run a modern household? PLUMBING: Inspect for leaks, rust, corrosion or other damage to the pipes and connections. Do all of the drains function properly? Is the water pressure and temperature where it should be? If there is a septic system, you’ll want a thorough inspection to verify that there are no cracks and that it is working properly. ATTIC AND ROOF: Are there any missing shingles? Are they deteriorating? What condition are the gutters in? Does the chimney appear to be structurally sound without any cracks? Look inside the attic for the insulation…Is it even throughout the attic? Is there a radiant barrier? EXTERIOR SURFACES: Here in the Temecula and Murrieta Valley many of our homes for sale have hairline cracks in the exterior stucco – this is normal with the settling that takes place. Check to make certain that the exterior surfaces are all properly painted and calked and don’t have other damage. Eaves and soffits should be inspected for water damage and the presence of termites (by a certified termite inspector, of course). Check to make sure that the ground cover is not making contact with exterior walls. Sprinklers should all be working properly and not spraying on exterior walls or fences. STRUCTURE: Visually check the structure for bows in the ceiling. Do all of the windows and doors close properly? Is the home

properly bolted to the foundation? LAND: Does the land slope away from the house? Try rolling a water bottle and see how it goes. Check out the driveway, walk ways, patio and any other paved surfaces for cracks or upheavals, as these could be a sign of a natural force that may have also caused damage to your foundation. DETACHED BUILDINGS: Detached garages, sheds and other out-buildings should be thoroughly inspected to ensure they can withstand the elements. The roof, foundation and the sealing elements are all critical to these structures as is the termite inspection. BASEMENTS: Not many homes in the Temecula Valley have a basement or cellar. Of course, exceptions can be found and when they are, they should be thoroughly inspected for any moisture or cracking. Make sure to seek out any potential mildew or mold. This list is by no means to be considered all-inclusive or as a substitute for hiring the right home inspection. It certainly will not replace an appraisal or other mandated inspection. This is to help you identify any potential issues that will undoubtedly be uncovered in the sale process. As a seller, you’ll want to know what they are in advance so you can either repair them or account for them in your asking price. As a home buyer, you’ll want to know as much about your possible new home as you can before you remove your contingencies. When your inspectors show up, plan on being there. Allow them to focus on their task at hand, making note of any questions you have. At the end of the inspection, the Inspector should have no problem reviewing all of their findings with you on the spot as well as issuing a comprehensive report complete

Return On Investment for Home Improvement Projects By Paul Bandong Many people undertake home renovations on older homes to update them; some are looking for upgrades to boost appeal for selling their homes. Home improvements don’t typically earn back the money put into them, so make sure they are improvements that increase your enjoyment of the property. Mini-projects like adding decorative tile to a kitchen backsplash or to a bathroom, refinishing the doors on kitchen cabinets, adding new hardware to cabinet doors, replacing bathroom fixtures, replacing old light fixtures and painting are relatively inexpensive but can make an immediate visual impact. Replacing carpeting, flooring and window coverings are a little more expensive but can also make a huge difference in first impressions. Finishing a garage with drywall and paint, adding lighting, even epoxy-coating the floor can add to the value of the home. If selling the home is the goal, first consider making all needed upgrades or repairs to the major indoor systems (wiring, plumbing, heating and air conditioning). Buyers want this assurance and inspectors will be looking at these. Then consider functional aesthetics and outdoor curb appeal. Replacement projects actually add more value than remodeling projects. Replacing the front door, garage door, siding and windows averages 72 percent return on investment (ROI), according to a National Association of Realtors report. ROI increases when projects add more living space, or make the property more efficient or less costly to own or operate. According to the 2010-11 Remodeling Magazine nationwide Cost vs Value report, these updates bring the best return based on their cost and the value they bring to the home. • New front door: 102.1 percent • New garage door: 83.9 percent • Fiber-Cement Siding: 80 percent (vinyl siding returns 72.4 percent) • Wood Deck: 72.8 percent • Minor Kitchen Remodel: 72.8 percent • Window Replacement: 67.5 (wood) to 72.6 (vinyl) percent • Remodel for Extra Bedroom (unused space, e.g. attic): 72.2 percent

REASONABLE PRICES

• Basement Remodel: 70 percent • Major Kitchen Renovation: 59.7 (luxury upgrades) to 68.7 percent • Two-story addition: 65 percent This was a nationwide report and remodeling attics, basements and second-story additions are not typical for Southern California homes. Kitchens are typically the heart of a home and improvements there are add value. The National Association of Home Builders did note that in 2011, the addition of a half-bath added 10.5 percent to a home’s value; a full bath, up to 20 percent. A clean, well-maintained front yard with color, a strategicallylocated shade tree, and solar lights can add up to 10 percent. Some improvements add to perceived value -- alarm systems,

water filtration systems, upgraded dishwashers, built-in wine refrigerators, spa tubs may peak the interest of luxury buyers. The big caveat here is not to go overboard! The values of surrounding homes will play a part in determining the value of your home; you don’t want to make improvements that will price your home significantly higher than any thing else in the neighborhood and make it more difficult to sell. You don’t want to put $100,000 of improvements into a $300,000 home that is in a $300,000 neighborhood. Unless you live in a neighborhood of custom or semicustom homes, try to keep your upgrades within the values of the neighborhood. Make improvements that you can enjoy. That value is priceless.

Healthy & Beautiful Gardens Creating an Asian garden Linda McDonald-Cash Special to the Valley News Hello fellow gardeners! This week I thought I might address a very specific “style” of garden, typically referred to as a “Japanese” garden, but since Chinese also have similar styles in their gardens I am just using the term “Asian” here. For those of you who know me, you know I’m big on using native and drought tolerant plants. Many of the plants in your typical Asian garden are not exactly drought tolerant, but I believe you can utilize similar plants that do well in our area while still keeping the appearance of an Asian garden. The basic “elements” in an Asian garden are – plants, water, stones, wood and water. The plants are not typically grown for their flowers specifically, but those can be an added bonus. Stepping stone pathways through gravel look great in flat areas. Also, larger rocks added in certain “key” spots can be representative of mountains. Low edging or fencing should be of bamboo for an authentic look. The water element can be added with a small pond, possibly with a “Deer Scarer” (a wooden device that water from your pond flows into with a rock

beneath. When full, it falls down and strikes the rock which makes a noise that scares deer!) added for authenticity. Existing wood fencing can be left as is, or better yet, covered with bamboo fencing. Another great and classic wood element is the Japanese bridge – usually used for ornamentation purposes only. This bridge doesn’t have to cross a standing body of water; it can cross a “dry creek” of pebbles and rocks. Japanese lanterns made of stone are mandatory and available at many garden supply stores or online. Placement is very important in this style of garden as is each item mentioned above. There are many plants that typify this style of garden. Most people immediately think of the Japanese Maple. However, this plant is not as well-suited to our area as others, as it tends to require a lot of shade from a larger tree. For trees I would recommend the Mugo Pine, Japanese Black Pine, the Maidenhair Tree or Ginkgo Biloba, ‘Little Gem’ Magnolia and of course the Cherry tree. Maples are classic, of course, but again, keep in mind their requirements of water, and some shade for the smaller Japanese ones. If you already have a nice sized pine tree, a Japanese Maple

could do well under its protective branches. Shrubbery is a great addition to this kind of garden. Any type of Nandina – a species of flowering shrub – will work great. You can find them from 2’ tall to 6’ tall. I like the “Firepower,” “Gulfstream” and “Sienna Sunrise” varieties of the plant. Most “basic,” easy to find shrubs work well in our climate such as Indian Hawthorne, Junipers, Photinias, Mahonia, Japanese Barberry (great dark plum colored leaves). The “Western Sword Fern” is one fern I would recommend if you have to have a fern. It does require mostly shady areas though. Check varieties and sizes first and plan accordingly. For smaller plants and ground cover, Liriope is great, especially in shaded to semi-shaded spots. Also, many clumping grasses look fantastic in the Asian garden such as Mondo grass (black looks stunning!) Festuca glauca or “Elija Blue,” Evergreen Miscanthus and Japanese “Blood Grass.” It should be noted that Blood Grass will spread quickly and should be contained if that is not desired. But the grass is very striking in landscapes! Creeping juniper, Dymondia, Dichondra, Arctostaphylos uvaursi and one of my favorites in this type of garden, Ajuga reptans “Carpet bugle”, all make great and reliable ground covers. Additional touches to the garden might be some oriental sounding wind chimes hung from a tree bough, or patio cover. Other great additions would be items of Asian statuary such as Buddha or Kwan Yen. A “Moon Gate” is another classic for Asian gardens. The lower gate is cut down like a bowl shape, and there is a rounded upper arch over the gate. Use gravel for paths, ground cover and stepping stones. Boulders strategically placed are also essential. Well, that’s all the room I have for this week folks. As always, please feel free to contact me with questions. I am available for consultations and designs. Sayonara!

Five Receive Offers at Prodigy College Showcase

Over sixty players participated in the fifth annual Prodigy Athletes College Showcase for an opportunity to showcase their skills to college coaches.

Paul Bandong Staff Writer The fifth annual Prodigy Athletes College Showcase was held June 24-26 at Linfield Christian School. Ten colleges and universities were represented, sixty high school players participated – most local, but some from as far away as San Diego and Arizona -- and five received offers to play college football. Coaches at the showcase included Utah Defensive Coordinator Kalani Sitake who worked with linebackers at the camp; Arizona tight end coach Miguel Reveles; Hawaii coaches Lewis Powell (defensive line) and Kevin Clune (defensive coordinator); San Jose State University (SJSU) defensive backs coach Donte Williams; Cal Poly Defensive Back Coach Olaitan Oguntodu; Northern Arizona University (NAU) running backs

coach Jimmy Beal; and Weber State receivers coach Fesi Sitake. Western New Mexico University was represented by Head Coach Adam Clark, Defensive Coordinator James Thomas, Offensive Coordinator Reilly Murphy, offensive line coach Robert Rodriguez, wide receivers coach Ben Hammer, and defensive line coach David Slove. Azusa Pacific University sent defensive backs coach Spencer Danielson, defensive line coach Manako Tuifua, tight ends coach Salo Faraimo, and defensive Coordinator Cesar Rivas-Sandoval. Also scheduled to attend, but unable to make it were: Mike Tuiasosopo (UCLA, defensive line); Saga Tuitele (Cal Poly Offensive Coordinator); Stephen Sorrels (UAB, offensive line); Zerrick Rollins (Texas A & M); and David Diaz-Infante (Arizona Cardinals). “This area is rich in talent,” said Western New Mexico Head Coach

Clark, “A majority of our players come from Southern California and we have quite a few from the Inland Empire, including our quarterback Mitch Glassman from Chaparral who is set to break every passing record we have.” The Mustangs’ roster includes four players from Chaparral High School, three from Vista Murrieta High School, two from Elsinore High School, two from Fallbrook High School and one each from Lakeside High School and Heritage High School. Five players received offers at the Showcase. Lorenzo Burns, a wide receiver/defensive back from Linfield Christian received offers from University of Hawai’i, Weber State, San Jose State, and Utah). Colin Baker, a wide receiver from Vista Murrieta, has offers from San Jose State and NAU. Lineman Bryson Bridges from Chaparral received offers from

Hawaii and San Jose State. Brandon Worthy, a safety from Vista Murrieta received an offer from Cal Poly. Kevin Knight, a linebacker from Great Oak received an offer from Western New Mexico. Sean Paul Brophy, a quarterback from Chaparral High School in Arizona, received an offer from Weber State. Other standouts included: defensive linemen Mau Ena (Vista) and Ryan Bamberger (Vista Murrieta); offensive lineman Tyler Whitworth (Linfield Christian); safety Roderick Atkins (Serra Gardena); linebacker Taylor Kekoa Lau (Vista Murrieta); cornerbacks Jalen Russell (Vista Murrieta) and Marion Pascal (Chaparral, Arizona); running back Isaiah Morrow (Heritage); and kicker Michael Brown (Linfield Christian) who hit fourof-five from 50-55 yards. Rising stars included: soph-

omores Jacob Alexander and Simeon Burns; freshmen Zion Fa’opega, Kobe Tarrant, Travis Kalemamo’oka’ala Lau, and Tavis Shippen. “This camp was a huge success in several ways,” said Troy Lau, Prodigy Athletes founder. “The community now has a camp that allows local football players to develop their craft while gaining college exposure.” “The camp allows local youth to perform in front of multiple colleges without the cost of flights, hotel and the anonymity of traveling to individual colleges; it provides relief to parents from the costs of recruiting services,” Laud added. “And it introduces youth and youth football coaches to techniques, strategies, and mentorship that promote safe and successful football play.”

Ten division champions from the valley were among the players who participated in the 40th annual Fallbrook Open tennis tournament which took place May 31, June 1, June 7, and June 8 at the Fallbrook Tennis Club. The tournament included a Men’s Open Doubles division which featured a round-robin format. Vincent Rivera of Murrieta teamed with Angelo Gustilo of San Diego to win that championship. Rebecca Wasley of Quail Valley also won a championship in a round-robin division. Wasley earned the Women’s 3.5 Singles title. The Mixed 3.5 Doubles final round featured the Temecula duo of Jan Borden and Dong Tagasa against Winchester players Kristin and Mark Merritt. Borden and Tagasa prevailed by a 6-3 score in the first set. The Merritts earned a 6-1 victory in the second set to send the match to a third set. Borden and Tagasa won the third set by a 6-2 score for the championship. An all-valley championship match also concluded the Men’s 4.5 Singles division. Marc Guzman of Murrieta won a pair of 6-2 sets against Kyle Langenbacher of Lake Elsinore.

Gary and Kyle Le of Temecula won the Father-Son Doubles championship with a 7-5, 6-1 victory in the final round against Aaron and Yves Nepomuceno of Chula Vista. Temecula’s Ignacio Medina teamed with Scott Wise of Fallbrook in the Men’s 4.0 Doubles division. They won the championship with a 7-5, 7-5 victory over Jack Autry of Lakeside and John Olson of El Cajon. Olson won the Men’s 4.0 Singles championship match against Larry Piper of Winchester by 6-2 and 6-3 scores. Temecula netters Anna Little and Trina Morris were among those who reached the finals but fell short of a championship. They competed in the Women’s 4.0 Doubles division and lost in the championship match by 6-2 and 6-1 scores to Sarah Becker of Carlsbad and Debra Reilly of Encinitas. Andrew and Dawn Wasley of Quail Valley reached the Mixed 4.0 Doubles championship round, where they faced the San Diego team of Darlene Gallego and Jeff Takacs. Gallego and Takacs won the first set by a 6-0 score. The second set was tied at six games apiece, triggering a tie breaking game to seven points, and Gallego and Takacs won their seventh point while the Wasleys had three.

VanderLans wins steer wrestling at Glennville Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent

Kennedy and himself having the top two Steer Wrestling times. VanderLans made his run prior to Kennedy’s. “It was a good run,” he said. “They bring in fresh steers up there,” VanderLans said. “When they’re fresh like that they’re a little more unpredictable.” VanderLans also took arena considerations into account when planning his approach. “The arena’s real long,” he said. “Worked out good. I kind of made a game plan and it all came together,” VanderLans said. VanderLans had to turn his steer after he caught the bovine, and the inexperienced steer was a factor in that part of his strategy. “You had to be real gentle,” he said. Kennedy opted for a longer time to ensure that he placed in the rodeo. VanderLans and Texas cowboy Nathan Steinberg, who also had a Tie-Down Roping time of 9.9 seconds, each earned $554. “That was good. I’ve been having a little trouble in the calf roping,” VanderLans said. “It all worked out really well.” VanderLans brought his wife, Tawnie, and his infant daughter, Lilly, to Glennville. The family departed Glennville for Sisters, Ore., the site of one of the following week’s rodeos which also included Livermore, California, on the return trip for the VanderLans family. “I’m really fortunate they came with me,” VanderLans said.

Fallbrook native wins Steer Wrestling event at the Glennville Round-Up rodeo on June 8. The 2001 Fallbrook High School graduate had a time of 5.4 seconds to win the $1,034 first-place money. VanderLans also had a Tie-Down Roping time of 9.9 seconds to split third and fourth place in that event. “It was really great to do so well up there. It’s kind of a neat rodeo,” VanderLans said.Glennville is a one-day rodeo. “The committee does a really good job,” VanderLans said. “Glennville’s a small community up in the hills. It’s pretty neat that they found that much money.” In addition to the added money provided by sponsors which complements the entry fee jackpot revenue, the winners of each event, including VanderLans, received a pair of Montana Silversmiths spurs. Glennville is approximately 30 miles northeast of Bakersfield and is accessible from State Route 155. VanderLans rode Bob when he was the Steer Wrestling competitor, Tuffy for Tie-Down Roping, and Leroy when he was the Steer Wrestling hazer who guides the steer for the bulldogger. VanderLans’ hazer at Glennville was Rhett Kennedy of Chowchilla, who rode Leroy, and Kennedy rode Bob when VanderLans hazed for Kennedy. Kennedy had the second-place time of 8.6 seconds. “That was pretty cool,” VanderLans said of

Mt. San Jacinto College Board of Trustees adopt tentative budget, make other preparations for new school year SAN JACINTO - The Mt. San Jacinto College Board of Trustees adopted a tentative $60.9 million General Fund budget for 20142015 school year during its meeting on June 26, 2014. The $60.9 million unrestricted General Fund pays for operations, materials, supplies, salaries and benefits, among other things. The District’s total $116.8 million budget includes funds that are restricted for use in specific areas. MSJC expects to serve 10,956

full-time equivalent students in 2014-15, which represents 522 over the amount of per-student funds MSJC will receive from the state. In 2013-14, MSJC served 10,797 full-time equivalent students, but received per-student state funding for only 10,155. In 2014-15, MSJC plans to: *Hire Eight New Faculty Positions *Include Salary Step and Column funding *Include Two Percent Increase

Finish Your Bachelor’s Degree at Azusa Pacific in Murrieta

for Enrollment Growth to provide more access to students *Provide a full Summer Session *Maintain a 6 percent Board Reserve The 2014-2015 final budget will be presented to the Board of Trustees for adoption during the regular meeting on September 11, 2014. Five-Year Construction Plan Update A new fire alarm system tops the list of construction projects slated for completion under the college’s Five-Year Construction Plan, according to Brian Twitty, director of Maintenance and Operations. The project has been approved by the state and is funded. Other projects that are approved, but not funded, include: a math and science building on the Menifee Valley Campus and a cultural arts center on the San Jacinto Campus. The college is in the initial approval stages for a science and technology building on the San Jacinto Campus and allied health and student services buildings on the Menifee Valley

Campus. During 2013-14, the district experienced $115,400 worth of unexpected repairs and replacements due to the age of the equipment and facilities. In March 2014, MSJC received $356,657 in Prop. 39 from the state. Funds from Prop. 39 are designed to pay for eligible projects that create jobs in California while improving energy efficiency and expanding clean energy generation. The district was able to provide in-house crews to complete its lighting retrofit project with indoor and outdoor lighting at the S a n Gorgonio

Campus and at building 3000 on the Menifee Valley Campus. It was also able to replace a 120 ton and 100 ton chiller on the San Jacinto Campus. MSJC is planning for a districtwide energy management system in the future, but the amount of Prop. 39 allocations for 2014-15 are unknown at this time. Under the state’s Prop. 39 prioritization process, districts must implement energy efficiency projects before being funded for solar projects. Student Trustee Sworn in Superintendent and President, Dr. Roger Schultz, gave the official oath of office to the student trustee for the 2014-15 academic year, Liliana Gomez. Other Information: The Board, which routinely does not meet in July, will hold a meeting at 10 a.m. on July 17, 2014, to discuss a potential facilities bond survey. The meeting will be held on the San Jacinto Campus at 1499 N. State St. San Jacinto in Room 200.

Children have been discovering science through play at Pennypickle’s Workshop Temecula Children’s Museum for a decade. In celebration of its anniversary, the museum has been offering science-events-extravaganzas where kids can visit the home of wacky inventor Professor Phineas T. Pennypickle and play with his crazy scientific experiments and inventions. The museum kept kids busy over the weekend in celebration of the ten years with a Surprise-O-Science event on Friday, June 27. One of the surprises for guests of all ages was a presentation in Molecular Gastronomy cooking, a form of cooking that blends physics and chemistry to transform the tastes and textures of food. Guest child-Chef Gregory was on hand to show off his molecular gastronomy experiments like turning root beer into tiny caviar looking eggs. The young audience was in awe as they saw the root beer transform right before their eyes. Vanilla ice cream was served to all the guests with a spoonful of root beer caviar on top. “This was fun. I love to cook and the kids must have liked it they kept coming back for more,” said Gregory Gerst, age 12. Gregory has been coming to Pennypickles since it first open on June 25, 2004. Owner and founder of PennypickWorkshop, Pat Comerchero, gave xle’s7.pdf Gregory a Molecular Gastronomy cookbook to review in April and since then he has been practicing not only

the recipes from the book but making up his own, like the root beer caviar. “The book has recipes using strawberries or balsamic vinegar or mint syrup but I love root beer floats and this is my version of a root beer float that doesn’t float,” Gregory said. The book titled Molecular Gastronomy by MOLECULE-R Cookbook has 40 stunning recipes explained and illustrated, and will be sold in Pennypickles along with kits in the gift shop. On Saturday, Habitat for Humanity ReStore was the sponsor for the Building-Crazy-Contraptions Family Workshop.

The rules of building were thrown out the door after Professor Pennypickle threw out all instructions. The museum closed off their parking lot and allowed kids to create contraptions of their own design out of piles of “junk.” It was an amazing chance to let kids be as creative as they liked. There is always something fun and educational going on at Pennypickles. Workshops are open every Monday in July and if you log onto their website, www.pennypickles.org you can find a calendar of events for the rest of the year.

Health

How to beat the couch potato curse Diet and exercise make great bedfellows for men and women looking to live a healthier lifestyle. A combination of a healthy diet and regular exercise makes it easier for men and women to maintain a healthy weight while lowering their risk of various ailments, including heart disease and diabetes. A heightened awareness of what makes for a healthy and unhealthy diet coupled with the increased availability of healthy foods has helped many people smoothly transition to a healthier diet. But many people still struggle to find time to exercise every day. Commitments to work and family can make it difficult to squeeze in regular workouts, and the call of the couch is often more appealing than a trip to the gym at the end of a long day juggling both personal and professional obligations. But exercise is integral to a healthy lifestyle, so it’s important that men and women take steps to incorporate exercise into their daily routines. Figure out when you’re free. Finding free time is perhaps the biggest hurdle adults must clear when attempting to exercise more. Track your daily schedule for a week or two, making note of down times during the day when you might be able to squeeze in 30 to 60 minutes of exercise. If you notice you’re spending your lunch hours catching up on personal emails or surfing the Internet, then consider joining a gym near your office and turning those lunch hours into workouts. If your mornings are not dominated by getting the kids ready for school, then wake up a half hour earlier each morning to squeeze in some time on the treadmill. You likely have some down time with regard to your daily schedule, and identifying such time is the first step toward making better use of it. Make it a team effort. Daily exercise is not just good for adults; it’s great for kids, too. Parents looking to fit more physical activity into their daily routines should consider involving their children, many of whom are dealing with a fitness crisis of their own. According to a 2014 report in the Journal of the American Medical Association, childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and quadrupled in adolescents over the last three decades, putting youngsters at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, prediabe-

for great exercise, such activities are not readily accessible to many working professionals with busy schedules. Join a gym that’s only a short drive from home, or purchase some gym equipment you can set up in your own home. The more accessible a workout routine is,

Parents can make daily exercise a family affair, which increases the time they spend with their children while ensuring their kids stay fit as well. Men and women without families also can make daily exercise a team effort by working out with a friend or significant other. The buddy system often proves motivational, encouraging men and women to exercise even on those days when the couch is calling. Make exercise more interesting. Many workout routines fall by the wayside because they simply do not engage men and women no matter how motivated they are to lose weight. An hour on the treadmill can seem like an eternity to certain men and women, who can benefit by choosing workout routines that are less monotonous.

For example, Zumba is a combination of dance and aerobic exercise that is growing in popularity. In lieu of spending an hour on the treadmill or elliptical machine, Zumba participants get an equally if not exceedingly challenging cardiovascular workout that many find more fun than traditional aerobic exercise thanks to its incorporation of dance. For those without such happy feet, bring a tablet along to the gym and catch up on your favorite television shows or a good book during your cardiovascular routines. The more interesting you find your workout routine, the more likely you are to find time for that routine every day. Be sure to choose an accessible routine. When planning your workout, make it as accessible as possible. While sports like kayaking and mountain bike racing make

products may not deliver enough sunscreen to the skin because droplets are dispersed unevenly. Furthermore, the propellents used in spray sunscreens could be harmful if inhaled. Opt for sunscreens that are applied by hand and can be adequately coated over all areas of the skin. Myth: Sunscreen does not need to be reapplied, especially if it’s water-resistant. There is no such thing as a waterproof sunscreen. The Food and Drug Administration recently prohibited the use of the term “waterproof” because consumers falsely believed their sunscreen products would not wash off. Water-resistant sunscreens will be effective for a certain number of minutes before they need to be reapplied, usually between 40 to 90 minutes. If you have been sweating profusely or have been in the pool or ocean for awhile, play it safe and reapply often. Myth: A little drop of sun-

Keep skin healthy by knowing sunscreen facts The best way to care for skin is to be smart about sun exposure. Too much unprotected exposure to the sun can cause a host of problems, from premature wrinkling to skin cancer. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, millions of cases of skin cancer are reported each year, and many more may go undetected. The best way to protect skin from the sun is to stay out of the sun. When that is not feasible, using a broad-spectrum sunscreen can guard against damage from ultraviolet radiation. Although sunscreen is an enormous help, it is not foolproof. Sunburns and skin damage can occur even when using sunscreen, and user error accounts for much of that damage. To get the best results from any sunscreen product, consumers can educate themselves about proper application and avoid certain information inaccuracies. Myth: The best sunscreen is the one with the highest SPF. Actually, the best sunscreen is the one you will use regularly. Make sure you like the scent and the feel of the sunscreen. Decide if you prefer a sunscreen that is grouped together with a moisturizer or a makeup foundation. Try sunscreens that are lotions or sticks to figure out which application works best for you. Once you’ve found a product you like, stick with it. But make sure the sunscreen has an adequate sun protection factor, or SPF. Myth: I only need sunscreen on sunny days. The sun can prove harmful even on cloudy days. You may not be safe indoors, either, particularly if you spend a good deal of time next to an open window. Window glass will only block certain types of UV light, making sunburn possible even if you are indoors or riding in a car. It’s a good habit to apply sunscreen daily regardless of if you will be out in the sun. Myth: Spray sunscreens are as effective as the rest. Spray

the more likely you are to embrace that routine. The call of the couch can be difficult to ignore. But the side effects of a sedentary lifestyle can be grave, so men and women should work to find ways to include exercise in their daily routines.

screen is all that’s needed. Many people are applying far too little sunscreen to protect themselves from the sun. The average person needs about an ounce of lotion to cover his or her entire body. Think about the size of a shot glass and use that amount.

Business

How to impress when hosting a business dinner

Hosting a business dinner is both an honor and a responsibility. Employers typically entrust only their most valued employees with the responsibility of hosting a business dinner, and such opportunities are not to be taken lightly. The desire to impress is there whether you’re hosting your first or fiftieth business dinner, but those with experience hosting existing or potential clients know that no two business dinners are ever the same. What works for one client won’t necessarily impress another, and the responsibility of impressing the clients falls on the host, which adds to both the excitement and the anxiety of hosting a business dinner. But even though hosting a business dinner may inspire a few butterflies to dance in your stomach, the following tips can ensure the night goes as smoothly as possible. Know your client. Clients tend to have vastly different needs and personalities, so while the

ambiance of one restaurant might appeal to some clients, that same atmosphere might not be so impressive to others. • When choosing a restaurant, consider its ambiance and how well that matches up with the client you will be taking out to dinner. Some clients may prefer to make deals in more laid back locales, while others may prefer the five-star treatment. Taking the latter to an all-you-can-eat buffet will hurt your chances of making a deal, while the former may take your willingness to spend lavishly on a meal at a five-star restaurant as an indicator that your company spends lavishly and ultimately passes such spending off on its clients. Understanding your client’s personality should help you choose a restaurant that’s likely to impress. • Don’t go in blind. Unless a client requests a specific restaurant, try to choose a restaurant you

have visited in the past. This is beneficial in a variety of ways. When visiting a restaurant you frequent, you’re in position to make recommendations with regard to the menu, and that insight can increase the chances that your client will enjoy his or her meal. When choosing a restaurant you’re familiar with, you’re also choosing one where you know the service is exceptional. If it wasn’t, you would not keep going back. No one wants a business dinner to be overtaken by poor service, which, fairly or unfairly, will reflect negatively on you. • Avoid restaurants with gimmicks. Restaurants with gimmicks, such as those where the staff sings to customers celebrating a birthday, might be fun to visit with friends or family members, but such establishments are best avoided when hosting business dinners. Gimmicks can interrupt a meal and make it difficult to make

any headway on a business deal, so stick to restaurants where you won’t be interrupted by celebratory staff members or drowned out by live music.

then the second dinner is a great time to indulge the client’s love of that unique or exotic cuisine, especially if it’s just the two of you.

• Don’t just show up. Nothing is more awkward or unprofessional than taking a client to dinner and being forced to wait for a table. If you can’t get a reservation at your preferred restaurant, then choose another establishment. Do not wing it and decide to wait for a table near the hostess or at the bar.

• D o n ’ t o v e r i n d u l g e . Overindulging, whether it’s eating too much or enjoying one too many glasses of wine, won’t impress the client. Resist the temptation to order the biggest steak on the menu and, if you choose to enjoy a cocktail, drink it slowly. A full stomach may make you drowsy and less attentive to your client, while a client will understandably question your judgment if you appear to be overindulging in alcohol.

• Avoid exotic restaurants. Unless your client requests a particular type of cuisine, avoid exotic restaurants with relatively limited menus. Clients may have certain food allergies or aversions to particular types of food, so opt for a neutral restaurant with a menu that appeals to diners of various palates. If taking a client out for the second time and you remember the client mentioning a love of a particular cuisine,

Hosting a business dinner is a significant responsibility not to be taken lightly. But hosts can employ these few simple strategies to calm their nerves and make sure the night goes smoothly
