Michelle Mears-Gerst Special to the Valley News The future, present and past were intertwined with the young and old of all ages attending an official groundbreaking for a new facility at Rancho Community Church. Since people of all ages were at the event it seemed fitting the newest phase of construction for Rancho Community Church and Rancho Christian Schools would be called

“Generations.” On Saturday, August 3 a ground breaking ceremony was held to start the building of a 80,000 square foot expansion campus. This campus will include many vital facilities that will help fuel the mission of the church and school for the next decade as they service the Temecula Valley. Located off the Temecula Parkway, the campus will be referred to as the “Generations” building, and

will provide world-class facilities for every age. The groundbreaking started under gray skies with rain clouds looming over the ceremony. President and Lead Pastor of Rancho Community Church Scott Treadway was concerned over flooding during the ceremony. He said he didn’t pull permits yet for Noah’s Ark and was doubtful they could be pulled in time even though city officials were in attendance.

This third phase of expansion will include a new Rancho Christian School Middle School campus, a new Rancho Christian High School campus, a gymnasium, a student union center, a cafeteria, four science labs, a STEM lab, art rooms, and a performing arts center. This facility will be a premier school campus in the valley. Families and children at the

Sex offender ordinance repeals previous loitering restrictions Kim Harris Special to the Valley News A new ordinance that sets rules on where sex offenders can live or visit was introduced by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday. Under the new ordinance, 902.2 which repeals the loitering provisions set forth in ordinance 902, residency prohibitions will remain in place. The move, which comes about following Appeals Court rulings on similar ordinances in nearby areas as unconstitutional, is not a popular one with the board, but rather a necessary evil to protect the

county from similar lawsuits. Third District Supervisor and Chairman Jeff Stone previously stated that he was against repealing the entire ordinance since there were many measures in place that could be upheld. Stone has repeatedly expressed concern that the group would be forced to repeal the entire ordinance and be left with no protection against sex offenders. “We had some good components to our ordinance that are now at the Supreme Court and until such time that we get any contradictory messages from the state Supreme Court, I wanted to keep those regu-

lations on the books to protect our communities,” Stone said. Ordinance 902.2 will do just that, keeping many measures in place and only repealing loitering prohibitions. Deputy county counsel Tiffany North explained that the provisions put forth over and above those covered under Jessica’s law would still be in place to safeguard residents. Jessica’s Law was named after a 9-year-old Florida girl who was murdered by a convicted sex offender who failed to notify local police of his location in 2005. Residency restrictions could change however, pending the out-

come of several appeals waiting to be heard by the California Supreme Court. “The residency restrictions that are over and above Jessica’s Law are still in place pending a final decision from the Supreme Court in those cases,” North said. With the repeal of the loitering restrictions, several Penal Code sections remain in place to protect residents from sex offenders, including registering with local law enforcement, submission to GPS monitoring and prohibition of entering any park where childre

House-passed immigration bill collecting dust in Senate By Michelle Mears-Gerst Congress passed an immigration bill on Friday August 1 before heading on a five-week recess. The bill was stalled on Thursday due to disagreements in the wording of the proposed bill. The Republican controlled Congress stayed in the nation’s capital Thursday and worked through the night and Friday morning. The bill was passed Friday by a 223-189 Republican vote. On Thursday GOP, leaders pulled the bill from the House floor due to concerns over the wording. On Friday, the revised bill addressed the loophole in current immigration laws that are luring children from Central America to flood the United States borders. The final bill also gave the National Guard more money to help secure the borders and states like Texas will be reimbursed for the money already spent using the Guard. Congressman Ken Calvert who represents the 42nd district in Riverside County spoke to the Valley News moments before heading to the floor of the house to vote.

“We needed to tighten the language and clear up our own disagreements before voting,” Calvert said. Calvert’s district was thrust into the middle of the immigration crisis in June when hundreds of illegal immigrants from Central America were bused to the California Border

Hard News Fake physician charged with sexually assaulting Lake Elsinore woman during date A man accused of sexually assaulting and stealing from a Lake Elsinore woman he met via the Internet while pretending to be a doctor was charged Wednesday, July 30 with a dozen felonies. Andrew Michael Hernandez, 48, was arrested the Monday prior for the alleged assault, as well as unrelated thefts involving other women. Hernandez is charged with two counts each of sexual battery of a restrained victim and grand theft, three counts of burglary, and one count each of sexual penetration with a foreign object, assault with

intent to commit rape, being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, financial elder abuse and stealing public property. The defendant, who’s being held in lieu of $1.25 million bail at the Southwest Detention Center, was slated to make his initial court appearance this afternoon at the Murrieta courthouse. The 48-year-old alleged victim, Lisa Shrout, told ABC7 Wednesday that Hernandez began communicating with her earlier this month on Zoosk. “He told me he was a plastic

surgeon,” Shrout said. “I had possible cancer issues going on with my right breast.” According to Shrout, she joined Hernandez for a date over the weekend, during which the two ate out and then went shopping. Afterward, they headed back to her place, where Shrout said she gave the defendant permission to perform a medical exam, convinced he was a physician. During the procedure, however, Hernandez went too far, she alleged. “I told him, ‘You need to stop that,’” she told ABC7. “I was

not comfortable, jumped up and walked out.” Hernandez was asked to leave, and did -- but allegedly swiped some of the victim’s jewelry, including a diamond ring, according to sheriff’s officials. He’s also suspected of inappropriately touching Shrout’s preteen daughter, Shrout told ABC7. “I feel stupid,” Shrout said. “I feel completely violated. He’s just a slimeball. He stole from me and my kids. I have to take with me what he did to me. I thought he was a doctor. My God.”

According to sheriff’s officials, during their investigation, detectives also linked him to four other alleged thefts involving women, though no details were disclosed. The sheriff’s department believes there may be additional victims. Hernandez has a prior felony conviction for a jewelry-related theft last year in Temecula, authorities said. Anyone who believes they may have been victimized was asked to call the sheriff’s Lake Elsinore station at (951) 245-3357.

Man found with fatal Trial to begin for trio accused in stab wound in driveway violent home invasion LAKE ELSINORE - Deputies found a man lying in the driveway of a Lake Elsinore home suffering from a fatal stab wound, a sheriff’s sergeant said today. Paramedics rushed the man from the home in the 15000 block of Joy Road to an area hospital where he was later pronounced dead, said Riverside County Sheriff’s Sgt. Jeff

Buompensiero. Deputies were dispatched to the home at 9:30 p.m. Saturday on an “assault with a deadly weapon” call, Buompensiero said. Anyone with information regarding the stabbing attack was asked to call the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department Central Homicide Unit at (760) 393- 3530.

Police arrest 63-year-old man for allegedly crashing car into home intentionally Deputies from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department Perris Station arrested a 63-year-old man around 9:30 a.m. Sunday after he intentionally crashed his vehicle into another parked vehicle and into the front of a home in the unincorporated part of Riverside, according to a Riverside County Sheriff’s report. Craig Clayton Gurney of Riverside allegedly crashed his Chevy Tahoe into the front of a residence in the 16700 block of Villa Grove Drive and caused moderate damage to the front of the home shortly before 1 a.m. on August 3. He also used his Tahoe to push a Honda Civic over an embankment

at the end of the driveway of the home, according to Deputy Munoz, a press information officer for the Sheriff’s Department. Gurney appears to have left the scene of the crash after it occurred, as officers contacted him in his home. Munoz said Gurney refused to come out or cooperate with officers and Riverside County Sheriff’s Departments SWAT Team, helicopter and K-9 Unit were called to the location. Gurney was taken into custody without incident. Gurney was arrested and booked into the Southwest Detention Center in Temecula for assault with a deadly weapon and felony vandalism.

Sheriff’s deputies patrolling the area spotted the pickup in a mobile home park in the 600 block of North State Street in Hemet and went over to investigate, at which point several people fled from the stolen vehicle, prompting deputies to surround the trailer where the pickup was parked. Four occupants followed deputies’ commands and surrendered immediately, but one hunkered inside the trailer for hours before finally giving up. The victim suffered non-lifethreatening injuries from which he has since recovered. According to court records, Kiriakos has a prior felony conviction for drug dealing, while Salah has a misdemeanor conviction for being in possession of a controlled substance. Jackson has several felony convictions, though court papers did not specify for what.

The foursome broke into a residence in the 700 block of Cawston Avenue in the early morning hours of Aug. 29, 2012, and began ransacking the place before the property owner returned, sheriff’s investigators allege. Detectives said that when the homeowner, whose identity was not released, arrived at the singlestory residence after taking his child to school, he was immediately confronted by three masked men, who bound him to a chair and repeatedly struck him. The defendants allegedly loaded goods taken out of the house, including two hunting rifles, into the victim’s pickup truck parked outside.

Despite criticism, county supervisors approve salary hikes Riverside County supervisors today tentatively approved hiking the salaries of five elected officials by an average 16 percent, despite criticism that the salary boosts were “insulting” and “abominable” given the stagnation or loss of wages that many workers experienced during the recent economic downturn. In a 3-1 vote, with Chairman Jeff Stone absent and Supervisor Kevin Jeffries dissenting, the Board of Supervisors agreed with a Department of Human Resources recommendation that upward adjustments to the salaries of the auditor-controller, assessor-clerk-recorder, district attorney, sheriff and treasurer-tax collector were justified. “Our pay is far behind our department colleagues,” AuditorController Paul Angulo told the board. “Not paying us appropriately is bad policy. It’s good public policy to pay public officers equitably.” Angulo was the only one of the five elected officials to speak, though he was joined by former Riverside County Sheriff Cois Byrd, who urged the board to reward current Sheriff Stan Sniff for his “professional leadership” in effectively managing his department. “I’m seldom interested enough to show up here and speak, but this is about equity and fairness,” said Byrd, who served as sheriff between 1986 and 1994. “Average the raise out over six years, and it doesn’t look too large.” Human Resources chief Michael Stock justified the raises by pointing out that without them, the five elected officials would potentially be making less than their most senior staff members. Union contracts and separate pay schedules ratified by the board for executive-level employees have created salary disparities known as “compaction,” under which the most high-ranking agency official receives total compensation that’s actually less than the managers working for him or her. According to Stock, the five elected officials in line for salary increases haven’t received any ad-

justments in pay since 2008. Stock also noted that “a recent external market salary survey” comparing the earnings of similarly placed officials elsewhere supported the increases. But several speakers expressed dismay over the size of the proposed pay hikes, which are slated to be formally approved after the board returns from its August recess. “Your constituents have not seen salary increases even close to this,” said Temecula resident Paul Jacobs. “Many people are taking pay cuts just to find a job. It seems insulting and inappropriate to be boosting salaries by this amount. These are positions of public trust and service. The trend of exorbitant executive compensation in government is unsustainable.” Perris-area resident Brett Holstrom lambasted the notion of awarding pay hikes simply because “someone is aging in space or time.” “My general impression is, this is wrong,” she told the board. “A lot of people have not regained employment since the recession. People have lost their homes. And you’re giving raises to individuals who are doing absolutely nothing to earn it? It’s abominable.” Though generally supportive of the adjustments, Supervisor John Benoit felt that pushing compensation levels up too much in one fell swoop was an affront to the “taxpayer’s perspective.” Under Stock’s recommendation, the assessor-clerk-recorder, auditor-controller and treasurer-tax collector would each have received a 20 percent raise, while the district attorney and sheriff would each have gotten a 22 percent pay hike. Supervisor John Tavaglione argued for the recommended increases, saying the agencies in question are “run by five very, very talented elected individuals.’’ Tavaglione highlighted the backgrounds and accomplishments of each incumbent, except for District Attorney Paul Zellerbach, whom the supervisor endorsed. Instead, he summarized the legal educa-

tion and work of DA-elect Mike Hestrin, who does not take office until Jan. 2. “Here we are asking whether he deserves a raise. He has served this county damn well,’’ Tavaglione said. Jeffries said he was “philosophically’’ opposed to the pay hikes. “I don’t fault a department head for wanting to make as much as an executive staffer,’’ the supervisor said. “But when you jump into politics, you sacrifice a lot of things. There’s a complete change in the rules, and with that comes a change with respect to compensation.’’ Benoit put forward a comprise that assured each of the five elected officials would receive base compensation that’s at least $1,000 more than the next highest level staff executive in their respective agencies. Supervisors Marion Ashley and Tavaglione agreed with the formula, which will increase AssessorClerk-Recorder Larry Ward’s, Auditor-Controller Paul Angulo’s and Treasurer-Tax Collector Don Kent’s salaries 16 percent, from $165,727 to $191,000. District Attorney Paul Zellerbach’s salary will rise 11 percent, from $223,166 to $247,000, and Sheriff Stan Sniff will receive a 20 percent hike, from $223,166 to 268,000. The tentatively approved changes will put the sheriff’s base compensation well above the pay rates of his counterparts in Orange and San Bernardino counties, whose annual earnings total $207,984 and $231,924, respectively, according to salary schedules provided by those two counties. The DA, similarly, will be receiving pay that’s roughly onefifth more than that paid to his counterpart in Orange County, and about 15 percent more than what his counterpart in San Bernardino County takes in. San Bernardino County shares a population nearly identical in size to Riverside County, while Orange County’s population is 40 percent larger, according to census figures.

live·work·play $25,000 Carnival of myvalleynews.com Often. Cash at Cahuilla Casino Check it out.723-7319 VALLEY

ANZA - Cahuilla Casino is celebrating the month of August with a Carnival of Cash and over $25,000 in cash and prizes. The carnival kicks off with a party on Sunday, August 3, with drawings from 2:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and continues with exciting giveaways and slot tournaments all month long. The fun culminates at the Payday Jackpot Party on Sunday, August 31, with giveaways from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., and a $5,000 Jackpot Winner at 8 p.m.. “Our Carnival Slot Tournaments are a lot of fun for players who haven’t played in a slot tournament before,” Marketing Manager Kasaan Steigen said. “It’s fast-paced and a lot of excitement for everyone playing. Players can play up to five times per week, so players love that they can come in anytime during tournament hours and try to put up a high score.” Slot tournament hours are every week in August on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m., and Fridays from 3:00 p.m. -7:00 p.m. Cahuilla Casino is located in Anza, less than thirty minutes from Temecula’s wine country, with easy access via Highways 79 and 74 from the Temecula Valley, Hemet and Coachella Valley. The casino sits nestled between Cahuilla Mountain, Thomas Mountain and Beauty Mountain. Its proximity to bigger cities and natural mountain setting make it an ideal day trip for players who regularly come from Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Los

Angeles counties. “Players love to take the drive up the mountain to enjoy the views,” Steigen said. “but what we hear most is that they come up because of the small, friendly atmosphere and to get away from the noise and chaos of bigger casino properties.” The casino currently features over 350 slot machines, from classics and hard-to-find favorites to the latest games. The casino offers a complimentary beverage station for players, in addition to a full service bar and restaurant. Roadrunner’s Bar and Grill serves lunch and dinner seven days a week plus brunch on Saturday and Sunday.

More information, restaurant hours and directions can be found on their website: cahuillacasino. com.

With visionary thinking and planning the staff at Menifee Unified School District, are preparing for a influx of students in the future by expanding their high tech capabilities. As students head back to school, parents will notice their child’s classroom is not the classroom setting they grew up in as kids. At Hans Christensen Middle School in Menifee for example, the blackboards are now white boards, notepads are replacing notebooks, and Googling is the term for researching. Jim Gammel a technology and avid college prep teacher at Hans Christensen said he has even moved away from the white board and dry erase markers to using his notepad to write on while in the classroom. Students this year will have access to more computers this year thanks to the school obtaining Chrome Carts, which create a portable computer lab that can go from classroom to classroom. Each cart can hold 33 notepads students can use at their desk. “The portable labs enhance the student’s ability to get online,” PM: Jen Collins

New school year brings new technology for Menifee students said Steve Thornton, Director of Technology for the MUSD. “Using Google Apps students can use a closed system to learn how to create spreadsheets, presentations just like they would do in the real world.” Gammel who has been teaching in the MUSD for 13 years and has an engineering background said the Chrome notepads are going to level the playing field more between extroverted and introverted children. “Using notepads helps introverted students speak out and organize their thoughts while at the same time forcing the extroverted kids to stay focused,” Gammel said. Students this fall will be working more on their notepads than in the past thanks to the portable computer labs. Parents may see children bringing home less homework said Gammel and that is because they don’t assume every child has a computer at home so they try to do as much in the classroom as possible. “Attendance is even more important this year since we will be working online. Although we can make up work when the child is ill and not in class it is not as easy,” Gammel said.

Students who are absent may have to come in early or stay after school if the work they missed was done on the computers. Common Core teaching standards will be mainstream starting this fall and most testing under Common Core is done online according to Gammel. Also new this year will be the parent connect online system used by parents to check on their children’s homework assignments, email the teacher or pay for their child’s lunch. “The new system parents will be using is called Illuminate it is much easier to use and will help us move forward as the school district grows,” said MUSD Public Information Officer Betti Cadmus. “We have a lot of behind the scenes technology coming in. It is very exciting,” Cadmus said.

to disclose the offender’s status as s sex offender when applying for or accepting a job or volunteer position involving direct and unaccompanied contact with minor children. County Counsel Gregory Priamos said he would be working closely with law enforcement to ensure the safety of the local

communities. “We will be looking beyond just sex offenders to individuals that are placed back in our community working closely with probation to try and ensure those that are returned can participate in a lawful manner in reintegration back into our community,” he said. “Those who chose not to do so; we would work closely with law enforcement to address those and to protect neighborhood livability.” The board approved the reintroduced ordinance 902.2 which is expected to be adopted during the next supervisors meeting scheduled for Tuesday, August 5 at 9 a.m. The board also adopted Resolution 2014-148 allowing the sale of 4.92 acres of real property located in Hemet, entered into an agreement with DHS Consulting for engineering services at a cost of $4.2 million over the next two fiscal years to perform construction management services for the Newport Road Interchange project, approved a Federal Funding Cooperative agreement with the Riverside County Transportation Commission for the same project and passed a motion to approve the use of Community Improvement designation funds for The Humanity of Justice Foundation in Murrieta in the amount of $2,000, for the Anza Electric Cooperative in the amount of $1,000 and for the California VFW Motorcycle Club in the amount of $1,000.

Local RANCHO from page A-1 ceremony were able to write messages on stones that will be used in the new construction and were handed shovels to participate in the groundbreaking as a community action event. The Generation building will also offer new worship facilities for Rancho Community Church, including a 1,400-seat contemporary worship venue, a 400-seat traditional worship venue, a new nursery, new Sunday school rooms, and a youth activity center that will also be open as a recreation center for community youth. This campus will enable the church to continue its mission to grow as a family of faith, build stronger families, and help those in need. Temecula Mayor Maryanne Edwards was in attendance at the event. A long standing member of the church, Edwards said she was excited to see the facility blossom into something that would benefit the Rancho Christian students as well as the community at large. “This is another landmark day,” Edwards said. “This 85,000 square foot building will not only serve Rancho Christian School and Rancho Community Church, it will also be a wonderful asset for the community for meetings, classes, concerts and more.” Pastor Treadway agreed with that sentiment, saying that the facility would be a great way to reach out to those in need.

Local Thomas gives presentation at SDCWA board meeting Joe Naiman Valley News Correspondent Greg Thomas lives in the Eastern Municipal Water District, but for the past year he has been the general manager of the Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District in northern San Diego County. On July 24 Thomas gave a presentation to the San Diego County Water Authority board on that Escondido-based district which is one of the SDCWA member agencies. “It’s a pleasure to just kind of highlight the Rincon Water District. It’s a smaller district, but there’s a lot in the hopper,” Thomas said. The Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District was formed as a public agency on February 19, 1954. The name was derived from the Rincon Del Diablo land grant. The Escondido Water Company had purchased water rights in 1905, but the need to become a legal district in order to obtain imported water led to the new identity. The elimination of the word “Escondido” from the district’s name avoids confusion with the City of Escondido’s water department. The Rincon Del Diablo Water District has a “donut” configuration which surrounds the City of Escondido water service area, but the water district includes parts of the City of Escondido as well as unincorporated Escondido and portions of San Marcos and Vista. The Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District serves 27,000 acres, or approximately a non-contiguous total of 42 square miles. The district serves a population of approximately 30,000 residents. Its 8,059 connections as of Thomas’ presentation consist of 6,996 residential, 965 commercial, 24 agricultural, and 74 recycled water connections. The district’s most recent annual sales were 10,075 acre-feet, including 7,227 acre-feet of potable water. All of the district’s potable water is purchased from the SDCWA. The Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District is also responsible for fire protection and emergency medical services within its unincorporated area. The fire and medical powers were added in 1976 to serve

residents outside the Escondido city limits. The district has had an agreement with the City of Escondido to provide those services since 1989. The district uses recycled water for fire suppression. The district staff consists of eleven operations employees and nine administrative employees. Its 2014-15 budget of $19.7 million includes $4.4 million for capital projects. The district facilities include ten reservoirs, four pump stations, and 128 miles of pipe. The pump stations were installed by district staff, and most of the maintenance is also performed in-house. The new Palomar-Pomerado Hospital is within the Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District, as is a Sempra Energy plant. The district’s customers also include Stone Brewing. “It does take a lot of water,” Thomas said of the brewery. Issues facing the Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District include infrastructure, personnel benefits and costs, reliable sources of potable water, and the desire to increase use of the recycled water the district generates from treatment. The final workshop for the district’s new strategic plan took place July 22, and the plan is likely to be brought out for initial board and public discussion during August. The district also plans to undertake an updated rate study. Thomas has lived in Temecula since 2004. He spent 22 years in the United States Marine Corps and retired in 2006 with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Thomas was stationed in Washington, DC, before being transferred to Camp Pendleton to close out his Marine career. Thomas worked for engineering and construction companies after his retirement from the military. For approximately three years he had a consulting business specializing in wastewater. The position of Rincon Del Diablo Municipal Water District general manager, which had previously been held by Mitch Dion, had been vacant for about nine months before Thomas began his current position on August 1, 2013. “I always wanted to be a general manager, and this opportunity presented itself,” Thomas said.

Local Needlecrafters hooked on A Good Yarn program at Grace Mellman Community Library By Laura Rathbun Special to the Valley News

Needlecrafters are getting hooked on A Good Yarn program offered by the Grace Mellman Community Library in Temecula. It started last summer with two attendees and has now grown to about 25. “It has really grown as word has gone out,” said Library Page Lisa Oda, who facilitates the program and is an avid knitter and crocheter. “We started out with one meeting per month, but have now expanded to two meetings per month. It’s really exciting!” Program’s origination Oda was asked by the library’s previous Adult Program Coordinator Sandra Brautigam to lead a needlecraft program because she always knitted or crocheted

when she bought her two young sons to the library for children’s storytime. Brautigam thought patrons would enjoy coming to the library to work on their own projects and socialize. “I wasn’t so sure about having a program,” Oda said. “But each time I would come in, Sandy would have a new idea about the program. It sounded so exciting that I finally agreed.” Program leader’s expertise Oda learned to crochet as a child and knit as an adult. “It wasn’t until I was two days away from giving birth to my oldest son that I learned to knit,” she said. “I sat upright in bed in the middle of the night with this crazy thought, ‘All new mothers know how to knit.’ So, I grabbed some yarn and went online. I didn’t have any knitting needles, but I had chopsticks. So, that’s what I used. I

didn’t go back to sleep until I could knit a perfect swatch. I knew that if I could get my tension right that I could tackle anything else later.” Oda said her skills are still evolving. “I love to learn new techniques. If I see something I like, I start thinking about how I can reproduce it. Sometimes I get a pattern in my head that needs to be made,” she said. Oda enjoys making hats. “I can whip those out really quick, but I love to make scarves and blankets for friends and family,” she said. Oda also makes toys for her sons. “As babies I used to make them different sized crocheted balls to play with,” she said. “I also like to make socks for family. My boys like to have homemade knit socks to go camping in.” Knitting and crocheting relaxes Oda and she enjoys the kinship of others who knit and crochet. “They are very friendly and helpful,” she said. “It was that kind of spirit that I wanted to cultivate in the program at the library.”

Temecula resident Brooklyn Anderson, 8, learned basic crochet stitches from Library Page Lisa Oda, who leads A Good Yarn program at the Grace Mellman Community Library.

Program teaches beginners Oda teaches knitting and crocheting to beginners at meetings. The library supplies yarn and needles for beginners so they can find out if they like it before investing money in it. At the July 23 meeting, Oda taught eight beginners the basics of crochet in a small group. Temecula residents Brooklyn Anderson, 8, and her grandmother Jimmie Gidron were in the beginners’ group. “I’m learning to single crochet,” Anderson said. She wants to make a blanket. Another young Temecula resident, Shea Bledsoe, 10, learned crochet basics from Oda so she can make a blanket, too. She was accompanied by her grandmother Sam Burnstein of Murrieta and her sister Remi Bledsoe, 7. Burnstein said she was glad that she bought her granddaughters to the program. “It gives the kids something to do instead of looking at their phones and texting,” she said, laughing. Chance to socialize Wildomar resident Judy Ferrer has been attending the program since it started and likes its social aspect. She’s retired and it gets her out of the house. She also belongs to the Riverside Knitters Guild and the Temecula Valley Stitch and Bitch and regularly goes to these groups’ meetings. Ferrer has been creating 8-foot- long ruffled scarfs to sell in local boutiques. “They’re very easy to make,” she said as she worked on one. She sells the lacy, lightweight scarfs for $15 to $20 and makes a small profit on them. She explained that she prices pieces for two to three times the cost of its yarn. She has done commissioned pieces, but mostly makes blankets, hats and shawls for family and friends. Jennifer Leggett of Wildomar is Ferrer’s daughter and accompanies her mother to the program.

taught her how to knit and crochet. She was busy knitting herself a black rectangular shawl. “This is the first project I’ve done for me in a long time,” she said. She’s a stay-at-home mother and likes the program’s friendly environment. It gives her a chance to enjoy good conversation and relieve stress. Deborah Glaus of Murrieta is friends with Ferrer and Leggett and was sitting between them. She’s been knitting for six years and loves the program. “I can’t wait to get here. I’ve learned a lot,” she said. Nell Hariri drove from Escondido to attend the program at the invitation of her close friend Linda Kamgar of Murrieta. Hariri was born in Norway and learned to knit and crochet as a child. She knits sweaters for her grandchildren and often buys good quality yarn for projects during trips to Norway. She’s almost done knitting a blue, red and white pullover sweater for her grandson. “Norwegians knit a lot,” Hariri commented as she took a coffee break. The library offered light refreshments to

snack on. Kamgar shared that her close friend Hariri is such a good knitter that she doesn’t need patterns and she’s in awe of her abilities. Kamgar’s has knitted and crocheted she was a teenager and finds the program inspiring. “It makes you want to do more,” she said. She’s working on a knitted blanket in pastel colors. Joining the program “I really, really enjoy my time with the group.

BILL from page A-1 Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008, the republicans also put before the house Friday a bill to deny President Barack Obama the authority to halt deportations of young immigrants -- the so-called “Dreamers.” “This bill treats everyone equal. Whether if you come from Mexico or Central America or another country,” Calvert said. The 2008 law states Mexicans can be deported within 48 hours if they cross the borders illegally while children other than Mexicans can stay for up to 578 days. Calvert said Congress has to send the message to Central America that the last people in will be the first sent back. “If people are being sent back right away it will send a message that coming to the United States illegally isn’t working.” Before the vote, the White House accused the Republicans of trying to dismantle extensions on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which currently affects DREAMers brought to the United States before 2007. White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said in a statement Thursday before a bill was passed, “By failing to act on an immigration reform bill that requires that people who are here illegally pay taxes, undergo background checks and get on the right side of the law, the House is instead driving an approach that is about rounding up and deporting 11 million people, separating families and undermining DHS’ ability to secure the border.” Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi a California Democrats said on the House floor in regards to the GOP’s bill, “Republicans have truly lost their way.” Pelosi then stated a proverb about the Republicans not being good Samaritans. Pelosi went head to head with Republican Congressman Tom Marino from Pennsylvania on Friday. The video of the high energy fingerwagging debate splashed across TV and social media channels. The House sent the bill to the Senate Friday with according to Calvert a “same day rule” allowing the Senate to come back and vote on the bill in one day. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Friday told media he does not see the Democratic controlled Senate approving the House version of the bill. Obama is requesting for $3.7 billion in emergency funds to secure the border and speed up the processing of new arrivals. The Republicans bill that passed in the House calls for $22 million to accelerate the immigration process and 29 million to the National Guard and 4.5 million to Department of Homeland Security. “ICE and the Border Patrol are running out of money,” Calvert said.

Dog owners learn how to cook canine treats in Sun City Library program

Marcy Vaughan taught how to make healthy treats for dogs in a program at the Sun City Library on July 31. Vaughan poured a batter of peanut butter and vanilla yogurt into mini-cupcake papers to freeze for cold treats. Laura Rathbun photos

By Laura Rathbun Special to the Valley News Humans wolfed down dog treats and declared them delicious at a program held at the Sun City Library on July 31. Dog owners learned how to cook healthy food for their dogs as well as themselves during the program, which was presented by Temecula chef Marcy Vaughan. About 15 library patrons and one dog attended. The dog, Angel, willingly agreed to serve as a canine taste tester. Sun City residents Tom and Nia Earp brought Angel, who’s a silky terrier service dog and belongs to the Earp’s friends Leo and Trish Fino. The Earps consider themselves to be Angel’s “auntie and uncle” and were pet sitting her that morning. Vaughan, owner of the meal service business Dia’s Delicious

Dishes, created two recipes for the program that she described as being quick and easy to make. The first recipe she shared was Best Friend Frozen Yogurt Treats. “I picked this because it’s a fun thing to make for your dog,” she said. “It makes a frozen treat for your dog that you can eat also.” Vaughan, who’s known as “Dia” to her grandchildren, put some peanut butter into a large glass measuring cup and melted it in a microwave in the library’s Community Room. She cautioned to start with one minute on the microwave to melt the peanut butter. “Always start out with a minute, the shortest time on the microwave. You know your microwave better than I do,” she said. “You just want it (peanut butter) to be soft and pliable to blend with the yogurt.” After the peanut butter melted in 30 seconds, she blended vanilla

Angel, a silky terrier service dog, sampled a frozen peanut butter and vanilla yogurt treat and loved it.

yogurt into it. Then she poured small amounts into mini-cupcake papers on a tray. “Look how easy they are,” Vaughan commented. “What, it took about two minutes to do.” Adult Services Librarian Shirley Wible took the tray to place in a freezer in another room so the treats could chill and set. Vaughan’s second original recipe was a breakfast scramble that she titled Breakfast with the Pup. She said it’s great for using up leftover sausage or rice. She chopped up a box of breakfast sausage into “tiny,

thin, little pieces” and mixed it with rice in an oiled casserole dish. Next she added beaten eggs and cooked it in the microwave until the eggs were set. Then she topped it with cheddar cheese. She carried the scramble to the audience and let them pass it down to serve themselves a sample. Wimble brought the frozen treats back to the room and they were also passed around to taste. Everyone, including Angel, thought the recipes were delicious and one woman commented that

Best Friend Frozen Yogurt Treats

• 6 ounce box of brown and serve breakfast sausage (Banquet brand) • 3 cups of cooked brown rice • 3 eggs, beaten • ¾ cups of cheddar cheese • Canola oil spray Cook breakfast sausage, if frozen. If defrosted already, chop into small pieces. Add to brown rice in pre-oiled shallow casserole dish and blend. Add beaten egg over mixture and stir to blend. Microwave until eggs begin to set. Stir again. Heat until completely set. Top with cheese and microwave until cheese melts. Use microwave in short intervals of 1 to 2 minutes and monitor so dish doesn’t dry out.

• ½ cup of creamy peanut butter • 16 ounces of vanilla yogurt • Cupcake papers Melt peanut butter in microwave in large measuring cup. Combine yogurt and melted peanut butter. Pour mixture into cupcake papers. Place in freezer to chill and set.

Williams-Sonoma’s “Essentials of Italian” easy, excellent fare

Grilling vegetables is a summertime treat.

Judy Bell Special to the Valley News

hen Chuck Williams opened his first culinary store in Sonoma in 1956, he was not yet in the “world of cuisine.” A little less than a decade later and he was already well known when my own culinary career began to take flight. A few years later I went to his store in San Francisco and, as the saying goes, “I thought I’d died and gone to (culinary) heaven.” It was as good as any culinary store anywhere in the world. For many years it was the only place a serious cook could be assured of getting equipment and specialty products for what was then the emerging and mushrooming interest in fine food prepared at home. Fast forward to today: there are more than 200 stores and the Williams-Sonoma catalog has an annual circulation of 40 million. All that came from one man, one idea and one location. Today one of Chuck Williams’ legacies is the all-embracing Williams-Sonoma library of cookbooks. Since publishing began the company has produced 35 volumes. This certainly puts Williams-Sonoma right up there with the publishing numbers of only a handful of companies. One of the more recent cookbooks is “Essentials of Italian” with recipes credited to Michele Scicolone, and text by Steve Siegleman and Chuck Williams himself. The recipe collection is both interesting and intriguing as it follows the geography of Italy in a comfortable and simplified manner. I found myself in a dream-like state reading how each recipe came to be. The pages were filled with folkloric information about ingredients and I formed a true

belief in my ability to recreate this satisfying and nearly universally appealing cuisine anytime I wanted. And so can you. Here then is a bit of a sampling of recipes well suited to the mid-summer season.

“One of the more recent cookbooks is ‘Essentials of Italian’... The recipe collection is both interesting and intriguing as it follows the geography of Italy in a comfortable and simplified manner.” The vegetables in this classic antipasto signal the arrival of midsummer. The dish could also be an excellent partner to something from the grill. Add rustic bread, unsalted butter or olive oil and the entrée is complete. If you add fresh fruit and cheese for dessert, it may just seem that you are on an Italian trip. Bon appetito! Grilled Vegetable Antipasto 2 cloves garlic About ½ cup fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley ½ cup extra virgin olive oil plus 2 tbsp. for brushing 2 tsp. balsamic vinegar 1 eggplant, 1 to 1 ¼-lb., trimmed and cut crosswise into slices ½-inch thick 2 zucchini, trimmed and thickly sliced lengthwise 2 red or yellow bell peppers 6 green onions, including tender green tops, trimmed Sea Salt ½ tsp. red pepper flakes, optional Prepare charcoal or gas grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat. Oil the grill rack. Using a chef’s knife, mince together the garlic and parsley. Transfer to a small bowl, add the ½ cup olive oil and the vinegar and mix well. Set aside. Brush the vegetables with the 2 tablespoons olive oil. Using tongs, lay the eggplant and zucchini slices,

are tender. This will take about 6 minutes total for the eggplant and about 3 minutes total for the zucchini. Grill the green onions, turning as needed, until slightly charred and tender, about 4 minutes total. Grill the peppers, turning as needed, until the skin is blackened and evenly blistered on all sides, about 10 minutes total. As the vegetables finish cooking, transfer the eggplant, zucchini and onions to a platter. Place the peppers in a paper bag and fold over the top so they will steam. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then remove from the bag, remove and discard the stems and slit the peppers open lengthwise. Remove and discard the seeds and ribs. Peel away the blackened skin, and cut the peppers lengthwise into strips about a ½-inch wide. Add the pepper strips to the platter. Drizzle the olive oil-parsley mixture evenly over the vegetables, and then sprinkle with salt and red pepper flakes. Serve at once. Makes 6 servings.* *Easy Grilling Adaptation with Weber Grill Pan with sides Use vegetables above, wash, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces. Put into large Ziplock bag. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Turn bag to coat all ingredients. Turn out onto Weber grill pan with sides over medium grill heat.

When it melts, add the chard and the raisins and cook, stirring constantly until the chard and raisins are evenly coated with butter and the flavors are blended. This will take about 5 minutes, too. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a warmed serving dish and sprinkle with the pine nuts. Serve at once. Makes 4 servings.

Swiss chard is a dark leafy green vegetable common to southern Europe. It seems less common in the USA. This is a quick Italianstyle stir-fry.

Yukon gold potatoes are relatively new to the produce counters. Yet potatoes similar to this variety have been grown and cooked in Calabria for many, many years. Serve these with a steak, grilled salmon or leg of lamb.

In a small, dry frying pan over medium heat, toast the pine nuts, shaking the pan often, until golden. Pour onto a plate to cool. Cut the chard crosswise into strips that are 1-inch wide. In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the chard, water and about 2 teaspoons salt. Cover and cook, uncovering to stir once or twice, until wilted and tender. This will take about 5

The Movie Review: ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Robert T. Nickerson Special to the Valley News Before I get into “Guardians of the Galaxy”, I want to bring up “Star Wars.” Why? Because it was one of the biggest game changers in all of cinema. Coming out at around the same time as “Halloween” and “Jaws”, it was this movie that not only created a blockbuster, but set a new standard in science-fiction cinema. “Star Wars” took a lot of elements that we loved in cinema (aliens, western gunslingers, samurai sword fighting, and amazing special effects) and brought us something that unbelievably unique. Where I’m going with this is that we often get that space opera that tries to be the next “Star Wars” every now and then. What those movie makers don’t understand is that they’re simply trying to copy Star Wars without realizing that “Star Wars” was made up upon several elements that we’re familiar with. The magic of going to another part of the universe to find a group that changes everything is something that’s always going to be explored from a cinematic point of view. Some have done it better than others. So when I heard that “Guardians of the Galaxy” was going to be made, I was uncertain what it would end up being. This was especially the case for me because I had not read any of the Marvel comics the movie was based off of. Luckily, I can say I’ve found a space opera that almost as great and memorable as “Star Wars” without being “Star Wars.” Unlike the previous Marvel superhero stories that have been Earthbound, this story takes us to the further limits of our galaxy. In fact, the only Earth being we see is our main hero, Peter Quill (played by Chris Pratt), who was abducted from our planet in 1988 and has since been living as a master thief who will pop on his awesome mix bucks. But when he’s turned away tape as he steels his latest prize. Quill escapes with a sphere-like by a prize collector, an assassin artifact, hoping to sell it for big Gamora (Zoe Saldana) tries to kill

RECIPES from page A-11 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch chunks. Brush a rimmed baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Scatter the potato chunks and the garlic in a single layer on the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the rosemary. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with the remaining oil. Toss gently to combine the ingredients, then spread them out evenly. Roast the potatoes, stirring one or two times, until the skins are crisp and browned and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife. This will take about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve at once. This meal makes 4-6 servings. It was impossible for me to resist this classic soup, which can be served for a light lunch or supper with a salad and bread. In the cookbook it is written that the name of the recipe comes from the tradition of several different cuts of pork and a big variety of vegetables, which were slowly simmered together until the ingredients were pronounced “married.” Isn’t that a charming explanation? And the soup is just as enticing!

Diesel), try to capture Quill for a reward. The four get caught and sent to a space prison where they meet a too-literal warrior named Drax (Dave Bautista). All five agree to team up and they escape, hoping to split the prize, only to accidently become the only hope against a weapon that could destroy the galaxy. What I’m writing sounds like a middle school student’s creative writing assignment, but I swear that this is one of the most wonderful space operas that I’ve seen. If The Avengers are like the Beatles, then the Guardians are the Rolling Stones. This is a self aware, chaotic, manic scenario that still manages to take itself seriously. “Guardians of the Galaxy” gave me something that has wowed me on the same level as “Star Wars.” It gave us some awesome fights, creative designs, and a boastful soundtrack filled with ‘70s and ‘80s nostalgia. The main characters all get their chance to show some good character. Chris Pratt plays what I can only describe as every child’s dream; a childish hero who can crack a good joke even in the face of danger while proving his fighting skill. Both Zoe Saldana and Dave Bautista make good creatures under their full body makeup. The ones who steel the show here are Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel. Their team up is just so perfect that I woulden’t be surprised if they got their own spin-off story. If I had any problems here, the villain is a bit weak; we know he’s only a messenger to the upcoming villain in the next Avengers movie. They could have used a deeper bad guy, but I’ll forgive that now that we have another team of heroes. I’ll give this five Rocket Raccoons out of five. I expect “Guardians of the Galaxy” to be the next big thing for Marvel and Disney. And with the amount of creativity, humor, and passion within the film, they deserve to have it succeed.

oil. When all the meatballs are ready, gently add them to the frying pan and brown on all sides for about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, carefully add them to the simmering soup and simmer gently over low heat until the meatballs are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Ladle the soup into warmed soup bowls and sprinkle each serving with grated cheese. Serve at once. Makes 6 servings. One couldn’t, of course, have an Italian cookbook without a basic recipe for spaghetti with tomato sauce. In Williams-Sonoma’s “Essentials of Italian”, the recipe is simple, and perfect for vine-ripe tomatoes now…and even canned tomatoes when fresh are not as readily available.

Spaghetti with Salsa di Pomodoro 5 tbsp. unsalted butter 2 carrots, finely chopped 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped 2 lb. fresh plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped or l can (28oz.) can Roma *tomatoes, drained and chopped Sea salt and freshly ground pepper 1 lb. spaghetti 10 fresh basil leaves, torn into small pieces ½ cup grated ParmigianoReggiano cheese, plus more for serving In a large frying pan, over medium heat, melt four tablespoons of butter. Add the carrots, celery and onion and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion has softened and the carrots and celery are tender. This will take about15 minutes. Add the tomatoes, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and cook

until the sauce begins to bubble. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened. This will take about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. While the sauce simmers, bring a large pot three-fourths full of water, to a rolling boil and add about 2 tablespoons salt. Add the spaghetti, stir well, and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Scoop out and reserve about 2 ladlefuls of the cooking water, then drain the pasta. Add the drained pasta to the sauce in the pan and stir and toss over low heat until well coated with the sauce, adjusting the consistency with some of the cooking water if needed. Add the basil and the remaining tablespoon of butter and toss to distribute evenly. Remove from the heat, add the ½ cup cheese, and toss again. Transfer to a warmed serving bowl and serve at once, passing additional cheese at the table. This makes 4-6 servings.

Rev. Jeff Coester Parenting teaches children skills and habits that help them excel. The Bible encourages purity as one of those habits that makes life work properly. There is logic to this idea whether you believe the Bible or not. Discussion usually invites passionate appeals to help you understand that people have freedom. Of course I do believe you are free to make your own choices, but it is also to our benefit to understand that any exercise of freedom brings consequences. If we exercise freedom without restraint in all things we understand we would have chaos. For example, if everyone drove without consideration of the Rules of the Road, the streets would be a dangerous place. Based on years of counseling, observing life and making some mistakes, I offer this as food for thought. If life is lived without concern for boundaries of purity there are some risks. Waiting for sex is protective of the heart. Sex establishes sincere bonds between partners. The breakup of a relationship where a deep connection has existed is emotionally devastating. Often destructive behavior accompanies a broken heart. Hollywood makes funny movies about the aftermath of heartbreak, but the person who is hurt is not living a comedy. Waiting for sex is protective of future options Negative results of a sexual relationship can far exceed the obvious issues like unplanned pregnancy, the harsh judgment of others or the delayed pursuit of education. Comparison may occur if your first lover was highly skilled and well equipped; and your eventual spouse is disappointing. Decisions may be made like abortion or adoption that a person does not have the

maturity to make or may not have the fortitude to live with. I have seen decades long marriages end, because some lingering issue could no longer be repressed by a partner. Waiting for sex keeps judgment clear in conflict Sexual tension is good in a dating relationship. In fact most tension is good in dating relationships. Tension and conflict give you the opportunity to have a clear view of the person you are dating. Sex makes it easier to ignore those things you should recognize in a potential life partner because you “feel so connected.” Marriage however is built on the personal and intellectual relationship between two people. It is dramatically affected by behaviors that are almost always visible in dating. The sex is valuable within a marriage for the same reason. Having sex helps you ignore your critical spirit. The same thing that makes sex a risk in dating, makes it valu-

able in marriage. The desire to be intimate with your partner makes you consider whether or not your offenses are valuable enough to you to leave them unresolved. Many people resolve marital conflict solely because the desire for sex is strong. It can motivate us toward the forgiveness necessary to make the relationship endure. Your testimony is powerful to the young. We almost universally agree that broken homes are tough on everyone. We see that being a single parent is difficult. We have

seen people be destructive to themselves, others, and society because of love. If some stand up and say, I have chosen a path where personal purity is a concern, many people could be helped. The young are more interested in what you did with your opportunity than what you believe about how they should deal with their opportunity. God welcomes all people regardless of their history.

REAL ESTATE / HOME & GARDEN

A mortgage that pays me? Reverse mortgage provides seniors with additional income By Paul Bandong “There are a lot of misconceptions and mis-information about reverse mortgages,” says Owen Coyle, a reverse mortgage expert. Television ads with celebrities are relatively commonplace and are often utilized to educate the public on this little-known and often misunderstood government program. Politician Jack Kemp, Senator Fred Thompson, and actors Peter Graves and Henry Winkler have all been spokespersons attempting to inform the public. But what exactly is a reverse mortgage, and how does it work? A reverse mortgage (also known as a home equity conversion mortgage) is a government-insured loan backed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) that allows senior homeowners to access a percentage of the equity in their homes and convert it into tax-free cash without selling the home or paying mortgage payments. The government program was designed to help senior homeowners in retirement: to eliminate debts (mortgages and unsecured loans), to have a larger steady income, or to have a large source of savings to use. Unlike other mortgages, there are no monthly payments. The equity in the home is used as the basis for the loan. The mortgagee can live in the home as long as he or she likes without having mortgage payments. The loan is re-paid out of the value of the home when it is sold.

There is a common misconception that homeowners who take out reverse mortgages no longer own their homes. The title of the home remains with the homeowner as long as he or she pays the taxes and the insurance (and complies with loan terms). Banks and lenders can only take title if the mortgagee does not meet their obligations. There is no risk of foreclosure since there are no mortgage payments. Qualification is simple: A person must be 62-years-old or older, own their home, have equity in the home and occupy it as a primary residence (183 days or more each year). Applicants must not have previously defaulted on any government loans. Currently seniors are not required to have good credit or income, but there may be upcoming changes that will make qualification a little more difficult. Eligible properties include single family residences, 2-4 unit dwellings, condominiums and manufactured homes (with land ownership). There are significant benefits to the reverse mortgage. The owner can continue to live in the home as long as they wish without having to worry about mortgage payments. Payments do not need to be made on the loan as long as the mortgagee continues to reside there. The source of funds can improve the quality

Healthy & Beautiful Gardens The drought tolerant garden with, and some that I recommend. First, a drought tolerant plant is one that can survive drought, but that doesn’t mean it can go without water. Surviving and thriving are two different things. Many of the drought tolerant plants we use here in Southern California come from similar areas of the world, such as the Mediterranean, Australia, South Africa and Madagascar, to name a few. The most drought tolerant plants are indigenous to the area; we’ll discuss those more in an upcoming article. Obviously, some of the top drought tolerant plants are cactuses and succulents. I’ve discussed varieties in my previous articles here. An important thing to know is that not all cacti and succulents can take freezing temps. This is why it’s so important to know your climate zone and the plant’s climate zone. Here in Temecula we are Zone 9a, Fallbrook is Zone 10 and Anza is Zone 8b. Drought tolerant plants do extremely well on drip irrigation.

By Linda McDonald-Cash Landscape Designer Hello, fellow gardeners! This week I’d like to discuss what we call “drought tolerant” gardening and the plants that we can use to implement this. Water isn’t getting cheaper or more plentiful, is it? In previous articles I’ve recommended “Lawn alternatives” and have recommended drought tolerant plants. Here I am going to start talking about what a drought tolerant plant is to begin

Some drought tolerant plants - a Buddleia, Miscanthus, Crown of Thorns, Agave celsii and some echiveras.

How to protect your furnishings when entertaining guests Hosts open their doors to guests for various reasons. Throwing a party is a great way to socialize with friends and family or mark special occasions like graduations or anniversaries. Hosting a get-together often requires a lot of work and, depending on the scale of the party, may even prove a considerable financial undertaking. But entertaining also subjects a home to some wear and tear, which can be prevented when hosts make protecting their furnishings a priority.

Stop stains before they start Choosing wisely with regard to foods and beverages can reduce the risk of stained carpets or furnishings. Items such as tomato-based sauces, red wine, beets, chocolate, and other dark edibles may be delicious, but such items also can permanently damage fabrics and carpeting if they are dropped, especially if the stain is not immediately treated. Choose foods that will be less likely to stain. White wine and clear beverages will not cause as much anxiety as colas or darker bever-

ages. Finger foods that can be eaten in one or two bites may be your best option, as such fare negates the need for cumbersome dinner plates and the potential for foods to roll off the side. If you choose to serve foods that need to be eaten with a fork, select shapes that are more likely to stay put. Flatten Swedish meatballs into patties, and opt for chicken wings instead of drumsticks. Choose a pasta that’s hollow, as such pastas are easier to skewer with a fork. It’s also wise to keep food contained to one particular area, usually an area with a tile or wood floor that can be easily cleaned and cleared of stains.

damaging their furniture should invest in inexpensive slipcovers, which are made to fit over a wide variety of furniture, including sofas, love seats, recliners, and even dining room chairs. Select a material that can be washed in a washing machine. Slipcovers come in different styles. Some feature tie-backs to keep the cover in place, while others must be stretched over the fabric to fit more snugly. In addition to considering slipcovers, move knickknacks or other fragile yet valuable items out of rooms where guests will spend time. Ceramic collectibles or a priceless piece of art can be safely stored elsewhere until the party is over. This saves you the stress of worrying about items being knocked over or broken during the party. Place a carpet runner or an area rug over areas of the carpeting that figure to get a lot of foot traffic during the party. This can guard against ground-in stains. Be sure to place small mats next to entryways to reduce the amount of debris brought into the house from outdoors. You can ask guests to remove their shoes, but keep in mind that such a request may make some guests uncomfortable. Encourage guests to be neat Do not expect guests to clean all of their messes, but you can encourage them to be neat. Have plenty of trash and recycling receptacles around. Regularly check the pails to make sure they aren’t overflowing. Put cloth guest towels in the bathrooms so guests can easily dry their hands. Provide a marker or wine tag so that guests can identify their beverage cups and glasses, which should lead to less waste as the party progresses. Relax as much as possible Think of the reasons you are hosting the party. Realize that your house will not be pristine after all the guests leave, but unless you turn a blind eye, it likely won’t be trashed, either. Worrying about messes and damage will make it hard for you to have fun, so try to relax and the enjoy the party.

Buyers: Be prepared or be left behind urban environment and the other out in the country – all for $900 a month? Well, you need to work this out with your partner (or yourself) long before you ever cross your first threshold. Determine what you want, what you need, where you want to be and a realistic budget. Open escrow – finish line in sight Sure, you found the perfect home and have an accepted offer for a price you like, but it’s not yours yet and you still have a lot of work to get done if you are going to close on time…or at all (always remember, not every escrow closes). Escrow can be anti-climactic after all of the energy that went into finding your new abode but you can’t slow down now – stay focused and do what needs to be done. This includes showing up for all of the inspections, when they are scheduled. Be sure to work closely with your lender, providing all of the necessary documentation (yes there will be hoops to jump through) they need when then ask for it. Remain flexible because there will be unforeseen things that will happen that will require your

John Occhi and Mike Mason The buying season is in full swing. Odds are that if you are going to buy a Temecula-Murrieta home this year, you’ll buy by September. Sure, you’ve been getting your financial affairs in order and you’ve been up at night searching the Internet and browsing again first thing each morning at all of the available homes for sale…but are you really ready to jump in and do what it takes? Think of finding and purchasing a new home as a marathon. It’s not going to happen over-night and it’s not going to be easy. Just like in a 26.2 mile marathon most of the preparation must be achieving a mental attitude that you are in it for the long run. Don’t give up and don’t look for shortcuts; be persistent and be consistent. Looking for a deal or a home? Many buyers will wear themselves out searching for “the right home” to fall in love with only to lose their dream by insisting on submitting a low ball offer. What’s sad is that many buyers will repeat the process several times before they realize this may not be the best tactic if they want to move before school starts in the fall. Smarter buyers, with a local agent who’s in-tune with the market, will know and understand the current market trends and know what homes are selling for in each specific neighborhood you are shopping in. Current market conditions do not support the notion that low-ball offers will gain any respect from this year’s sellers who are still hoping for a repeat of last year’s buying frenzy that saw multiple offers and a nearly 25 percent increase in value. Do yourself a favor and prepare reasonable fair market offers. Use current and reliable data to structure your offers and don’t rely on your need to negotiate the best deal. If it’s meant to be…It’s meant to be There will be homes that you

MORTGAGE from page B-1 of life and give “peace of mind.” The funds lent are tax-free (but not tax-deductible), and can be used for any purpose. These could be things like vacations, medical expenses, paying off existing mortgage or debts, home improvements, long-term care insurance, care-givers, etc. A reverse mortgage is a safe way to increase and supplement retirement income. The program does not interfere with Social Security or Medicare benefits. It may affect Medicaid benefits. The amount owed can never exceed the value of the home. Current and future equity accrues to the benefit of the homeowner. The mortgagee can select how they want to receive the equity income: monthly income, lump sum, credit line, or a combination thereof for life. According to Coyle, the adjustable rate Line of Credit has become a popular option for many seniors, who see it as an attractive “investment vehicle.” The home can be left to children and heirs. If the home loses value, children and heirs will not be responsible for paying off the outstanding debt (federal insurance pays off the non-recourse loan to the lender). There are also disadvantages to the program. FHA charges a mortgage insurance premium – to protect both lender and borrower – that must be paid upfront in loan closing fees. Since this is a loan, monies (interest expense) regularly due as payments accrue on the balance of the loan, potentially increasing the loan balance over time; this often can be offset with increases in home values that increase the home’s equity.

really want. You’ve analyzed all of the data with your realtor. You structure the cleanest best offer and then you submit it. At this point, if you are going to maintain a healthy mental attitude, you have to let go of the outcome. If the home you are fighting for is supposed to be yours and you have this type of positive mental attitude then the success will be that much sweeter and the loss much easier to deal with if you find yourself back on the street looking for that perfect home again! Are your priorities in alignment with buying a home? It’s a tough question; your instinct is, “of course!” If that’s the case, when your agent notifies you that a home that meets every want and need on your list and is within budget in the desired neighborhood, did you drop what you were doing to go look at it or did you ask to schedule a showing for Saturday afternoon after Juniors little league game? Do you keep getting overbid because you are asking for a 60 day

escrow? Maybe you want the seller to contribute three percent towards your closing costs plus pay for a home warranty. The truth is there are many variables to every offer and typically lots of competition. You need to be working with an agent you trust so that you can trust your agents’ advice and harness his expertise. Consider each setback and learn from the experience – don’t become a victim of repetition.

The loan comes due (payable to the lender) at the death of the mortgagee, the sale of the home or if the mortgagee moves out (e.g., to a nursing home facility), potentially reducing the equity available to be passed on to heirs. The estate has approximately six months to repay the loan and can opt to refinance or sell the property and take the remaining equity. Often, the lender calls the loan, takes possession of the home and sells it to repay the loan. Again, heirs are not responsible for the shortfall if the home sells for less than the balance of the loan. Age and equity are the primary determining factors for how much money one can receive. The 2013 maximum loan limit in Southern

California was $625,000. There are pros and cons to reverse mortgages, but be assured that this is a government-backed program designed to help seniors. Seek the help and advice of reverse mortgage professionals to completely understand the risks and benefits and to navigate the process.

TV buyers are in fantasy land If you ever watch any of the multiple television shows on the process of buying real estate you may be gaining some insight but trust me – this is not real. First off, it is near impossible to look at three houses and one of them becomes perfect. It’s going to take much more than this. Second, the couple who doesn’t know what they want really need to decide and not rely on their realtor to figure it out for them. How many couples have you seen on TV where one wants to live in an

Real Estate / Home & Garden GARDENING from page B-1 This form of irrigation saves you water and puts the water you do use exactly where it can benefit plant roots the most, so it’s a top recommendation of mine. Why water the fence anyway? This is opposed to typical sprinklers, which lose up to 40 percent of their water to evaporation. Ever notice that mist going up into the air when most sprinklers are running? Ground cover is a top recommendation of mine when it comes to keeping moisture in the soil. Whether your choice of ground cover consists of rocks (gravel) or shredded bark, one thing will remain the same: evaporation will be limited. If you have soil that drains very quickly, I recommend adding some good compost. Compost is good for all plants, including succulents. But, if you’re going to be adding it to a succulent garden, be sure to water that garden less as the soil will be able to hold more water. Now comes the part where I’m going to go over various types of plants. All of these plants different purposes in the landscape so unless you want to hire a professional, the choice is up to you to decide how to arrange them in your landscape.

Most of the Verbenas available are great. Prostrate Junipers - There are several varieties out there, and they are all good. Be sure to check variety and zone. EVERYTHING ELSE Too much to cover here, but clumping grasses are a favorite. Varieties I recommend would be: Little Bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium), Dwarf Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis ‘Yakushima’), Blue Fescue (Festuca glauca), Dwarf Fountain Grass(Pennisetum alopecuroides) and New Zealand Flax (Phormium tenax). Lambs Ears – Stachys lanata or byzantin – are both great; they have large grey fuzzy leaves and are low growing. They make a great ground cover if you let them spread. Kangaroo Paws (Anigazanthos flavidus) and Gaura lindheimeri are both great flowering plants. Rock Purslane (Calandrina grandiflora) This is a fantastic succulent with tall spikes of bright magenta flowers all summer long.

Rose Care FUNdamentals for August 2014 Frank Brines ARS Consulting Rosarian Recent severe weather all over the world and especially in the Western U.S. indicates the unpredictability to be expected in the future. Globally June 2014 was the warmest June on record. Locally it seemed insignificant while daily temperatures fluctuated from above and below ‘normal.’ The last days of July 2014 continue to bring us more unstable conditions and high temperatures predicted to continue into August. Here in the Temecula Valley, we typically can expect these high temperatures to continue through September, sometimes into October. Gardeners will be forced to adjust their practices or be more disciplined in using current proven methods to minimize the influences in order to be able to roll with these changes. Some local gardens had a nice show of blooms into July due to short, hot periods. I’ve had some reports of plant and blossom sunburn. This is the result of the plant being unable to hydrate at the same rate as its evaporation. As I have been advocating for the past four years, after the June/ July bloom cycle, let your roses, “do whatever they do.” That is, let the hips develop. Just remove the petals and discard them, and keep the bed clean of debris while keeping your rose bushes well-hydrated. Make sure you don’t fertilize. Take a daily tour of your garden to look for any changes. It doesn’t take long for a rose to suffer if its irrigation supply fails. Examine the lower leaves. If they appear yellow or brown, have fine webbing and/or look dirty, there may be an infestation of spider mites. Mites thrive in hot weather. They’re generally found on the undersides of those leaves. A strong spray of water from below followed by an overhead shower should take care of the problem or, at least, hold it in check. Give the shower early in the day so the plant has time to dry before the sun becomes hot. It may be necessary to repeat after a few days if the infestation is heavy. Gardeners are always faced with

risks. One recently came to my attention through a Dr. Gott. It’s a dangerous fungus with the scientific name Sporothrix schenckii. This fungus is the source of the fungus infection sporotrichosis. It is often referred to as the Rose Thorn ( or Rose Gardener’s) Disease. The fungus resides on hay, sphagnum moss, the tips of rose thorns and in soil. It can cause infection, redness, swelling and open ulcers at the puncture site. The fungus can also spread to the lymphatic system and move on to the joints and bones where it ends up attacking the central nervous system and lungs when the thorn or thorns are deeply imbedded. A relatively uncommon condition, diagnosis can be complicated. Physicians often mistake it as Staph or Strep infection. If you suspect this condition, be sure to inform your physician that you are a gardener so appropriate diagnosis and treatment are rendered. We all enjoy the fragrance and beauty of roses, and have often had our skin pierced by thorns (“prickles” is the correct anatomical name). Good protective measures include wearing appropriate clothing (gloves, long sleeves, or gauntlets) when working among roses and thoroughly cleansing even minor scratches and punctures with an anti-bacterial soap. Rubbing alcohol—which you should already have handy to clean your pruners—can be applied as an immediate wash until you can use anti-bacterial soap. Anything more than a minor puncture should be watched carefully for signs of infection; seek medical attention as soon as possible if you show any of the signs described above. Even the simple things in life have risks—take precautions so you can stop and smell the roses. And when you’ve got a moment to spare, go visit Rose Haven, located at 30592 Jedediah Smith Road (the cross street is Cabrillo Avenue) in Temecula. Also, visit our web site, www.TemeculaValleyRoseSociety. org. You might also want to visit Meetup.com and search on Temecula Valley Rose Society to find events of interest to you. (Be sure to specify a wide enough “within” for distance from you).

Murrieta Mesa football team trains with Navy SEALS The Rams learn disipline, team work and how to overcome adversity at SEALS training camp Charles McKee Sports Writer Murrieta Mesa Football Head Coach Justin Schaeffer’s philosophy of solid fundamentals, athleticism and sound technique added yet another dimension this week: Teamwork. The varsity Ram football team traveled to the Naval Amphibious Base in Coronado on Tuesday where they underwent a grueling five hour training program. The program was designed by the Navy SEALS, and is the Gold standard for training warriors and athletes to be leaders and winners. The program builds teamwork, loyalty, endurance, courage and unity. It also helps players learn to have a positive attitude under stress, identify leaders and get the team committed to one goal: Winning. These skills are not taught in a textbook or in the classroom. They must be learned on the beach with hours of hard physical training, teaching mental and emotional discipline, and humility. It also set the standards and conditions for a successful 2014 football season. “The SEALS training was everything we expected and more” said Coach Schaeffer. “The experience and the physical part were great. More importantly, it helped the team bond as a unit and taught them how to help one another when things got tough.”The SEALS training program stresses teamwork and develops leadership. It requires individuals to really become a team

and act as brothers. Team members quickly realized that the only way to be successful was to help others and work together. “The SEALS training was most definitely a great experience” said senior wide receiver Bryan Phan. “Most of the drills tested our physical and mental toughness

and pushed some of us to point that I’m sure we didn’t think we could reach. Most of all it taught us teamwork and respect for teammates. If someone was having a hard time, we picked it up and got the job done. Together!” The program lasted from 8:30 in the morning to 2 p.m. It consisted

of running, calisthenics and formatted workouts. The Navy Seals had the Rams carry logs, run, and gave the football team a glimpse at what Navy SEALS do on a daily basis. Coach Schaeffer was pleased with the results of the training program. “The training and discipline

helped the team build a sense of teamwork and showed them that they could face any adversity together,” Schaeffer said “It also brought out the leaders of the team like seniors Bryan Phan, Joseph Pinkava and juniors McKinley Ross and Peyton Uhl.”

Pop Warner celebrates 25 years in Temecula

JP Raineri Sports/Mulitmedia Editor TEMECULA - Inline Hockey is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States because it brings the thrill of ice hockey right into the back yard of many who might not live in the most hockey-driven communities. The Temecula Valley Inline Hockey Association (TVIHA) is a league that is gaining much popularity in our area and recently several players from TVIHA traveled to Las Vegas last month to participate in the 2014 AAU Inline Hockey Junior Olympics featuring teams from Hong Kong, Great Britain, Columbia, Korea, Spain and Canada. Players representing Team USA from TVIHA included Maya Tasevski , Emma Tasevski, Hudson Lammatao, Carson Krill, Brandon Cahill, Giovanni Joffrey, Michael Segura, John Wilshire and Kenzie Fink. These players were selected

The Temecula Youth Basketball League (TYBL) opened online registration on Aug. 1 on its website. The league features divisions for kids in grades kindergarten through 8th grade for both boys and

girls. Practices start in November and games start in December with play wrapping up in late February 2015. Register early as prices will increase on Sept. 15. To register or to find out more information on the

league visit www.tybl.org. The Temecula Youth Baseball league (TYB) will soon be in full fall swing and is still signing up players and managers for the 2014 fall season. As Temecula’s largest youth sports organization, there is a division and skill level for all boys and girls that range from ages 4 to 20 years of age. TYB also is the only league in the valley that offers a Middle School based division during the fall with one to two teams representing each middle school in the Temecula area. Registration can be done online at www.temeculapony. com. Questions regarding manger signups can be directed to tybbcommissioners@ temeculapony.com.

Football season has begun in Temecula Valley. On Friday, Aug. 1 under moonlit skies, hundreds of kids underwent their first day of practice at Birdsall Park. The sounds of coach’s whistles, the slap of the football being caught and grunts from young athletes pushing through their first day of training were heard from around the field. This year Temecula’s Pop Warner Football League celebrates 25 years of incorporation. The league is organized to be kid focused and family friendly. During the first day of practice, families were scattered around the field on chairs and blankets watching young players develop their football skills. Safety is an upmost concern to the league and throughout the summer, the league prepared coaches on strict safety standards. “We added on our board new this year a player safety coach,” Temecula Pop Warner President Tim Arnzen said. The player safety coach takes more training than the average coach so they can monitor the league’s coaches throughout the season. Earlier this year Governor Jerry Brown signed into a law AB 2127, which prohibits football teams at middle and high schools from holding full-contact practices that exceed 90 minutes a day, limits the number of full-contact practices during the season to two per week and prohibits contact practices during the off-season. The restrictions take effect Jan. 1,

2015 and are designed to help reduce concussions and serious brain injuries. Arnzen said the Temecula Valley Pop Warner league already follows rules and regulations that reflect the AB 2127 football safety law. “Player safety is our number one concern,” Arnzen said. In celebration of the 25 years in the Valley, all players were issued a special practice t-shirt commemorating the milestone which the players wore for the first week for practice. The number of players this year who enrolled has dropped and Arnzen said he contributes the decreased amount of players to a number of factors. “There are ten other football leagues between Murrieta and Temecula, some is due to cost, safety concerns and we are also competing with the growing sports of year-round baseball, soccer and lacrosse,” Arnzen said. Despite a slight decrease in numbers of registered players, the coaching staff at the Temecula Valley Pop Warner Football League has longevity. Coach Troy Juve has been coaching 22 years and last year his team won the Best of the West in the Western Conference. Arnzen said he also has three teams in the league where the coaches or assistant coaches were at one time players. On Aug. 23, a carnival will be held at Temecula Middle School to help fundraise for the league. More information on the league can be found at www.tvpw.org.

Sports Paloma Valley football’s winning tradition builds character and pride The Wildcats focus on fundamentals as they prepare for the 2014 season

Charles McKee Sports Writer The Wildcats are getting ready in the hot summer sun as they prepare

for the 2014 football season. Bert Esposito heads into his eleventh year as Head Coach as he built the Football program at Paloma Valley in 2002. The Wildcats were the

Sunbelt League Co-Champions in 2005, 06, 07, 08, and 09 under Esposito. They have finished second to Heritage the past few years. Paloma Valley was 10-2 in 2013.

“Our goals are the same as every season” said Coach Esposito. “We want to have a great and exciting season of football, and that all of my kids love being a part of the Wildcat Football. We have built a family here at Paloma. Winning games is a byproduct of the process.” “I expect my kids give everything they have on the field, off the field, in the classroom and at home. Then they will leave Paloma Valley ready for the world,” he added. Juan Merida is the Paloma Valley offensive coordinator and his Wildcat’s can score points and move the chains. They scored 520 points last season and averaged 209 yards in the air and 195 on the ground last year. This year there is a battle between Jake Newton and Pohaku Pavia for the quarterback starting spot. “It’s too close to call right

now,” Esposito said. Juior DeMarco Prewitt will move the chains on the ground for the Wildcats. Prewitt carried the ball 154 times for 1322 yards and scored 22 Touchdown last year. Elliott Smith is the other running back. Jacob Diaz. David Hamilton, Mhalik Jones and Noah Suniga are quick and dangerous receivers that can change games in a “PalomaValley minute”. “We believe our Offensive Line will be very good this year. We return three starters, Anthony Sifuentes, Evan McGuire and Max Pichardo” said Esposito. “We have added transfer Luis Castro, and our up and coming linemen Jared Decker and Noah Holstein to fortify the O line”. The Wildcat defensive line is tough and anchored by Mose Herrera and Ashton Morgan. Linebackers

Anthony Adcock and Jose Cruz are expected to be the heart and soul of the Paloma Valley defense. They will be tough to move the ball against. Returning defensive backs Ruben Colon, Isaac Ouk and Fred Lundy will be patrolling the Wildcat secondary and ready to shut down opposing passing attacks. “Obviously we want to win them all” said Esposito. “We have some good teams to play, starting with JW North. We then host the Clackamas Cavaliers, a 6A quarterfinalist from Portland Oregon. ML King, Tustin and Temecula Valley will give us a very well rounded non-league season and each team brings something different to the field that will help prepare us for a very tough league”. The Sunbelt League will be tough again this year. “Every team in our league will be a challenge as Perris and Lakeside will be vastly improved” said Esposito. “Temescal Canyon and Elsinore always bring their “A” game and are real physical when we play”. Then there is Heritage. The Patriots have not lost a league game since joining the Sunbelt League four years ago. It will be up to the Wildcats to unseat the Champions. “I look forward to the challenge,” Esposito said. “This year just got way more difficult to win CIF with us going into the Inland Division, but that is what it’s all about. We will do our best every week.”

Murrieta church holding ‘Back to School Bash’ to benefit students in need 1,000 backpacks to be given away Laura Rathbun Special to the Valley News

Martin said that this year’s bash will be their biggest yet. Last year they gave away 500 backpacks and this year it’s been increased to 1,000. “We had to turn away many, many people last year so that’s why we made the decision to double our backpacks this year,” he said. They also plan on increasing the number of hairdressers from 20 to 40 because of the last year’s need for more haircuts. “There’s a statistic out there that 11 percent of children in Riverside County won’t start school on time because they don’t have supplies,” Martin said, explaining why the non-denominational Christian church sponsors the bash. “We knew that there was something we

The Bridge Church in Murrieta is holding its third annual Back to School Bash on Sat., Aug. 9 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Backpacks filled with school supplies will be given away to students in need on a first come, first serve basis and they must be present to receive one. Students will also be given donated clothing, haircuts and sports physicals. The free bash will feature a pancake breakfast, live music and bounce houses.

could do in our valley to fix the problem.” The bash is part of the church’s Community Care program that serves about 75 families each week. “Every Sunday we give away free food and clothing to people,” Martin said. The clothing and food are mainly donated by church members. Some food pantries in Perris and Norco also donate to the program. Church member Mike Bebout oversees the Community Care events and is coordinating the bash. Martin said that over 100 church members have volunteered to help in some way with it. About 20 of the volunteers spent time stuffing two different styles of backpacks with every imaginable school supply. One backpack style is for elementary school students and the other is for middle and high school students. Donations for the bash come from Richie’s Diner, Organic Roots, Starbucks and church members. Plus, there was a “generous grant from Walmart,” Martin said. Large tents are being be provided by Premier Party and Tent Rentals and will be set up in the church’s parking lot for the bash. A local Cub Scout pack is putting on the pancake breakfast and a church member who’s a physician is conducting the sports

Natural ways to alleviate acid reflux Acid reflux is one of the more common, not to mention painful, side effects of gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD. The Florida Hospital estimates that more than 60 million adults in the United States suffer from symptoms of acid reflux each month, and almost half experience symptoms every day. Finding relief can be challenging, but there are a variety of treatments available, including some drug-free alternatives. There is no cure for acid reflux, but there are ways to manage the condition and prevent permanent damage to the esophagus. Many people rely on protonpump inhibitors, or PPIs, to keep acid reflux at bay. PPIs are one of the more commonly prescribed medications for acid reflux, and while they may be beneficial for short-term treatment of acid reflux, the U.S. Food and Drug Administrationrecently cautioned against prolonged use of PPIs. Many acid-stopping medications can inhibit nutrient absorption, reduce resistance to infection and may cause vitamin deficiencies. They also have been shown to increase the risk of bone fractures and dementia. Rather than taking medication, some people might be able to make certain lifestyle changes to relieve acid reflux. • Pay attention to the foods you eat. Acidic foods, such as tomatoes, citrus fruits and even raisins, can increase the amount of acid in the stomach. Choose foods that are less likely to aggravate symptoms and can alleviate pain and flare-ups.

Foods that will absorb acid are safe bets. For example, oatmeal is a filling, hearty food that can combat acidproblems. Stick to lean poultry that is baked, broiled or grilled. Remove the fatty skin, as it may cause digestive issues. • Use natural digestion enhancers. Remember those homespun remedies Mom used to whip up when you had an upset stomach? They can be equally effective for acid reflux. Ginger root has long been used to calm the stomach. Ginger can be made into tea or added to recipes and smoothies. Fennel, a licorice-flavored vegetable, may improve stomach function. Some people like to eat it after a meal to aid digestion. Parsley has been used as a medicinal herb to settle the stomach for thousands of years. Parsley can add flavor to meals and serve as an attractive garnish. • Stock up on apple cider vinegar. Apple cider vinegar has uses beyond flavoring in favorite

recipes. It also can soothe acid reflux symptoms. It’s believed the vinegar plays a role in maintaining healthy bacteria in the stomach, and that this bacteria eases digestion. Try mixing one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar into four ounces of water to drink before, during or after a meal. Apple cider vinegar also can be spread on salad. • Practice portion control at mealtime. Overindulging at mealtime can cause intestinal discomfort, which may contribute to acid reflux. Opt for more frequent and smaller meals instead of larger infrequent ones. Also, remain upright for two to three hours after eating to promote good digestion. • Elevate your head. If acid reflux symptoms tend to strike at night or while you are lying down, elevating your head in bed can help. Use pillows to prop yourself up or find another way to keep your head elevated until symptoms subside. • Shed some pounds. Many doctors recommend weight loss

to alleviateacid reflux. Losing 10 to 15 pounds can decrease pressure on the stomach and the lower esophageal sphincter, which is the muscle at the band of the stomach and esophagus. • Quit tobacco products. Smokers have a higher incidence of GERD than nonsmokers, so quitting smoking may help alleviate acid reflux symptoms. Even if stopping smoking has minimal effect on your acid reflux, it will still improve your overall health. • Drink more water between meals. Water hydrates the body and flushes out toxins that can build up in the digestive tract. Water also may help dilute stomach acid. However, do not drink tons of water with a meal, as this may stimulate the stomach to produce more acid to maintain digestion. Chewing gum when water is not available can stimulate saliva production. Saliva is naturally alkaline and can counteract the overproduction of acid. Acid reflux can be a nuisance or downright painful. Before reaching for medication, consider a few lifestyle changes to alleviate acid reflux.

Looking good and feeling healthy are top priorities for many women. In addition to spending hours researching the latest beauty regimens and spending thousands on products that promise everything from turning back the hands of time to making hair thicker and more resilient, women could be engaging in a few habits that may be doing more harm than good. As cosmetic procedures and beauty trends are passed down from generation to generation, some women may be unsure what is best for them and which habits need tweaking. According to a recent survey from YouBeauty.com, a majority of women say they spend anywhere from $5 to $15 per month on beauty products, not including skincare products. But are those efforts fruitful? Here are some common beauty faux pas that women likely want to avoid. • Scrubbing skin: Dermatologists say the skin naturally sheds dead cells, so for most people it is unnecessary to use harsh exfoliants or scouring pads to rid the skin of dead cells. In fact, exfoliating the skin too much can cause irritation and excess dryness over time. Try to exfoliate your face and body no more than twice a week, advises the American Board of Dermatology. Even those with oily skin should scale back, as exfoliating too frequently can actually cause oil glands to produce more oil. Use an easy hand when exfoliating to avoid redness. • Popping pimples: Both women and men are guilty of popping pimples. It can be quite difficult to resist popping a pimple that has sprouted in the middle of your face, but doing so can cause irritation and spread bacteria, and you may end up getting more blemishes as a result. If you cannot resist popping the pimple, cleanse the area first, use a warm cloth or steam to help bring the blemish to a head and use tissue-covered fingers to apply gentle pressure. Then use an antibacterial cleanser to clean the area again. • Wrapping wet hair in a towel turban: Gathering wet locks together and twisting them into a towel is a recipe for damage and

to know how they will interact. Less is more when using different beauty serums. Experiment with each item separately to gauge skin reaction and if an allergy is present. • Poor washing habits: Some women fall into bed at night without washing makeup from their faces. While this is alright once in a while, it may lead to irritation or blemishes over time. Surprisingly, too much washing of the face can be just as bad, especially if you are soaping up in the morning as well. You could be stripping your face of helpful oils at the start of the day, when skin needs added protection from the elements. Stick to washing your face at night so it can naturally restore itself while you sleep.

breakage. Wet hair is more delicate than dry hair, and it can stretch or break more easily. Gently squeeze hair dry with the towel and then use a detangling spray to make it easier to comb out knots. Putting hair too tightly in elastics and wearing them for long periods of time can result in thinning of the hair or a condition known as traction alopecia over time. • Failing to clean makeup tools: All of those brushes, wands and applicators need to be routinely washed with a mild cleanser and allowed to air dry. Otherwise, they become harbingers of bacteria and even mold. You can risk infection if you are using a dirty brush near the eyes or nasal passages. Aim to wash cosmetic tools at least once a week if you wear makeup every day. • Layering products: You may have a relative beauty arsenal tucked into your medicine cabinet, but while these products may work well on their own, there is no way

NEWS 760723-7319 VALLEY

Joe Naiman Valley News Correspondent The closure of Chandler’s Office Supply in Evanston, Illinois, in 1995 was caused by the retirement of the owners along with competition from national chain stores. The good news is that the store didn’t close because Northwestern University students defaulted on their Chandler’s credit card debt. When I was a Northwestern freshman Chandler ’s Office Supply gave me my first credit card. They probably realized that students weren’t at risk of overspending at an office supply store. My first year at Northwestern also saw First Bank Evanston give me my first check-

ing account, and when I used the Chandler’s credit card I paid off the amount. That became the start of my credit history. Before I graduated from college I also accepted offers for gasoline and department store credit cards. It’s possible for some people to overspend at a department store, although at mid1980s gas prices the oil companies faced minimal risk of young adults spending more than they were able to pay. In 1986 Sears introduced its Discover Card, and shortly afterward that was my next step in credit card acquisition. Ironically, Sears turned me down for a credit card even though Discover accepted me. A couple of the gasoline cards weren’t used after I returned to California. There are no Conoco stations in California to my knowledge, and while my Amoco card was allegedly usable at Chevron stations few of them took it. Eventually my Amoco card was converted into a MasterCard, which gave me my first “big two” credit card. That allowed me to use the major credit card at bookstores and restaurants, although I had been doing that with the Discover Card. Since I was paying off the charges, I didn’t consider using credit cards instead of cash to be overuse. In fact, I was building up my positive credit history. I was able to purchase my house without ever having bought a car on credit (to this day I’ve never owned a new car), so all those credit card purchases served a purpose even if I could have paid cash in some instances. Thus my advice to young adults is to use credit cards wisely to build up a credit history and have the ability to make major purchases such as a house or a car. My financial advice to college students also includes focusing on finding a spouse rather than on grades. If I had dropped out of college and gotten married early when the right woman was available I wouldn’t have the three children I do now, so even if I could go back and do it over again I wouldn’t, but divorce can create some very adverse financial situations. My marriage to a woman who wasn’t spending “her” money, the divorce and child support obligations, and the bankruptcy gave some Latin American governments better credit ratings

than I had. For six years I had no credit cards or checking account. I thought not having credit cards or a checking account would be a handicap. Instead it turned out to be an administrative advantage. If I paid by credit card I’d have to come up with the money anyway, but if I paid by cash or money order that was the final transaction. I didn’t have to deal with credit card statements or reconciling checking account balances. Some spending sacrifice in other areas to allow me to pay in cash up front actually made things easier. Ironically, even when I had gasoline credit cards I often made sure I had enough cash to pay the bill just in case the credit card didn’t work - although that was easier in the 1980s when I could fill my tank for $20. I still had nothing to lose by applying for credit cards with no annual fee - in fact, having them reject me meant that I wouldn’t be inundated with repeat requests. And if promotional booths were giving away items for applying for a credit card, I didn’t have to give those back if my application was rejected. Eventually I began receiving credit cards again, although my preference for cash payments remained. I consider it a bit of a victory when a couple of my credit cards were cancelled for non-use rather than for non-payment; I definitely don’t consider those cancellations to be losses. I’ve probably also lost out on some rewards points, since using specific credit cards enough to accumulate sufficient points for redemption isn’t worth the personal administrative hassle. Currently I use credit cards for one of two reasons. The first is an emergency. The second is when I’m out of town and I want to save my cash for places which don’t take credit cards, and the out-oftown expenditures also include hotel reservations which require a credit card for an advance deposit. The rest of the time I still pay cash. I thus recommend frequent use of credit cards for those who are building up credit and have the ability to pay off what they spend through plastic. I also recommend credit cards for emergencies and for out-of-town travel. In other situations, however, cash is not only a precaution against overspending but is also the easiest type of payment.
