Hard News Wildlife expert to speak about mountain lions in upcoming weeks Dr. Winston Vickers, a wildlife veterinarian and researcher with the University of California Wildlife Health Center, will be facilitating two presentations on mountain lions in the upcoming weeks.

Vickers’ organization has been capturing, sampling, and GPS-col-

laring mountain lions in Southern California since 2001. They have found that the mountain lion, like many wildlife species, faces a variety of threats in this area that will probably get much worse unless corrective action is taken.

Vickers will discuss what the

Chase Bank ATM theft suspects arrested in Murrieta Michelle Mears-Gerst Special to the Valley News Two bank ATM theft suspects were arrested after a confrontation, chase and four-hour long search by the Murrieta Police Department on Tuesday, Sept. 23.

Detectives and officers from the department were working a surveillance detail Tuesday morning at 1:54 a.m. and confronted the suspects in the act of trying to unlawfully take cash from a drive up ATM at the Chase Bank on California Oaks Road, according to a police press release.

The suspects fled the scene, one on a motorcycle and one in a cargo van. Officers attempted to stop both suspects as they fled the area north and south on Jackson Avenue. The motorcycle, a 2006 Kawasaki Ninja, was involved in a traffic collision on northbound Jackson Avenue and the driver fled on foot. The cargo van fled south on Jackson and into the Rite-Aid lot and ultimately collided with a block wall in the lot, disabling the van. The driver of the 2013 Ford Econoline van also fled on foot. The van was later confirmed to be a stolen vehicle, the press release stated.

An extensive search of both the Colony retirement community and the neighborhood near Malbec Street and Chianti Circle was conducted. The police requested assistance from CHP, Border Patrol and the Riverside Sheriff for the search. All four agencies worked together to set immediate containment on both neighborhoods. By 2 a.m. a yardto-yard search was being conducted by four police service dogs accom-

panied by multiple officers in both locations. At 3:55 a.m., the first suspect last seen fleeing from the downed motorcycle, was arrested near Colony Drive and Via Andorra in the Colony. The second suspect was arrested at 6:36 a.m. on Chianti Circle. The police hadn’t released the suspects’ names and charges by press time.

The Murrieta Valley Unified School District was notified by police of the search because the second suspect was believed to be in the area of Shivela Middle School and Murrieta Mesa High School. The district immediately put the two schools on lockdown.

The press release said that over the last few months, Murrieta police detectives have been working with the FBI trying to solve a number of cases with matching circumstances throughout Southern California. To date, the FBI has over a dozen cases of Chase Bank drive up ATM attacks.

In Murrieta on May 17, at 4:24 a.m., the police responded to the same Chase Bank on California Oaks Road in regards to a drive up ATM tampering call. Upon arrival, officers discovered unknown suspect(s) had attempted to remove the drive up ATM cash box by force, but were unsuccessful.

On July 12, at 3:42 a.m., a second attempt to remove the cash box at the same ATM was attempted. In this case, the suspect(s) were successful in removing an undetermined amount of cash. The suspects fled before officers arrived on scene. Both cases were assigned to Murrieta police detectives for investigation, the press release said.

Green said marijuana plants, honey oil, a honey oil lab, processed marijuana and methamphetamine were all confiscated from the home. The six men were arrested and booked at Southwest Dentention Center in Murrieta.

Gov. Brown signs bill to combat badge abuse SACRAMENTO–Gov. Jerry Brown recently signed SB 702, a bill Senator Joel Anderson (R-Alpine) authored to combat badge abuse.

The bill increases the penalty for badge abuse and fraud to be as

severe as other public corruption crimes. It would also make it a requirement that law enforcement authorities seize the badge to prevent further abuse.

In 2007, then California Attorney General Brown said in an opinion piece that special badges violate the law if they look real enough to fool ordinary people.

large,” Spivacke added. The Sheriff’s Department is treating the incident as a homicide.

Three nearby schools in Temecula were locked down as a precautionary measure, Spivacke said.

The schools were Temecula Valley High School, Temecula Elementary and Margarita Middle School.

Temecula Chief of Police Jeff Kubel reached out to the community on Monday morning via the social media site Temecula Talk and posted, “We are investigating an assault at an apartment complex on Rancho California Road and there are likely a few schools in

the general area that have instituted lock downs as a safety precaution.

We do not have any reports or suspicions of an intruder at any of our schools. It is still early in our investigation, the investigation is on-going and there will be a press release sent out later this afternoon.”

Two females who live in the complex said they heard people fighting at the apartment Sunday night.

“We didn’t know what was going on, but you could hear someone yelling something about a ‘piece’, which can be slang for a gun, so we knew to stay away because there was an altercation for sure

going on,” said a female resident of the Portofino Apartments, who requested not to be identified.

Management at the Portofino Apartments refused to comment stating that it’s corporate policy not to release any information.

As of press time, no arrests or any information about a motive for the shooting had been announced by the Sheriff’s Department.

This investigation is ongoing and anyone with information regarding the crime is asked to contact Detective Gorlicki of the Temecula Police Department at (951) 696-3000 or Investigator Dickey of the Sheriff’s Central Homicide Unit at (951) 555-2777.

LEUSD holds Parent Summit Night Michelle Mears-Gerst Special to the Valley News The first in a series of four quarterly Parent Summit Nights was held September 18 at the Lake Elsinore Unified School District offices. The purpose of the summits is for school officials, teachers, counselors and parents to share ideas on how to help students in a variety of situations.

“There are three reasons why the school district is holding these meetings,” said LEUSD Coordinator of Community and Media Relations Mark Dennis. “The first reason is to increase parental engagement by holding these meetings four times a year instead of annually. Second, we want to change the strategy to increase our outreach by holding evening meetings when most parents are off work. Third, we want to equip parents to be effective and engaged with their children’s learning.”

Three classes were offered at the first summit and close to 50 people made reservations to attend them. LEUSD described the classes as handing parents toolboxes. In

each class they attend, they will be given lessons on how to apply the tools they receive to repair a variety of broken situations.

Social Skills was a class where parents were trained on how to give positive reinforcement even when punishing their child. The instructor gave parents tips and tricks to help them teach their children better behavior.

The instructor explained that handing down a punishment in the heat of the moment, when a parent is upset with a child, isn’t the best time to do it. The instructor explained that it is sometimes better to send the child to their room and allow everyone to calm down before deciding on the best punishment.

Social skill cards from Boys Town were handed out to parents.

The cards are small enough to keep in wallets or purses and give quick reminders on how to teach children with social skills. Skills like how to accept no as an answer, how to talk to another person by looking them in the eye, to accept consequences and how to ask for help.

Luz and Rafel Garcia attended the social skills class to help parent

their three children.

“It never occurred to us to teach our kids ahead of time of what to expect, if they misbehave,” Luz Garcia said.

“We learned today we need to follow through with our punishments and stay consistent,” Rafel Garcia said.

Bullying was another class offered. It was bilingual and taught by the group Team of Advocates for Special Kids. Parents learned how to recognize signs that their child was being bullied as well as signs that their child might be a bully.

Delia Lopez from TASK said, “Parents need to listen, believe, take action, and not ignore the signs of bullying. Even if your child is being bullied by their brother or sisters, it is still bullying and needs to be taken seriously.”

LEUSD Assistant Superintendent Dr. Alain Guevara taught a class on Common Core strategies.

“We walked through some of the lessons their children will be taking as if the parents were the students,” Guevara said.

“Most of the parents wanted to know more about how to help kids

in their home,” Guevara added.

Dennis said the next summit is in December. More information can be found at http://www.leusd.

LEUSD works to avoid future flooding at high school after storm damages it Michelle Mears-Gerst Special to the Valley News Lake Elsinore Unified School District officials are working with county and city officials to review the damage done to Lake Elsinore High School from a recent storm that produced tornado-like winds and rain.

The school was damaged from a storm cell that pounded Southwest Riverside County on Tuesday, Sept.

16. It rolled into Lake Elsinore and surrounding cities shortly after 1:00 p.m., dumping heavy rain, high winds, and small balls of hail.

The land adjacent to the school swelled with water and overflowed around 2:30 p.m., sending streams of water towards the building. The Riverside County Fire Department rushed to the school at 21800 Canyon Dr., in response to weatherrelated damage and discovered a portion of the campus flooded.

“The water came through flood channels in this area - this is a rural community- and ended up draining onto our property, infiltrating classrooms, the gym and some office areas,” said LEUSD Coordinator of Community and Media Relations Mark Dennis.

Structures on the athletic field were in disrepair, according to Dennis. Winds from the storm removed the roof and sidewalls from the baseball dugout blowing them hundreds of feet towards the football field.

was gone when the storm hit and LEUSD officials said they were getting the last of the busses out when reports of flooding came in so no injuries were reported.

Dennis said the parts of the athletic fields that need to be rebuilt will require state permits to meet today’s current codes.

“Parts of the school damaged were built in the 1970s while other sections were modernized in 2001.

But no matter when it was built it has to meet today’s standards with state permits,” Dennis said.

The day of the storm Supervisor Kevin Jeffries stopped by to see the school’s damage. He graduated from the school.

“While intense storms like this past one are unusual, it does point out how quickly our drainage systems can be overwhelmed,” Jeffries said.

“When I attended Elsinore High school in the late 70s, we of course had some good sized mud puddles back then, but this storm completely overwhelmed the entire onsite drainage system. Even if you had a maintenance person working at each drain during the downpour, I’m not sure any system could have handled that extreme downpour,” Jeffries said.

“I was very impressed with how fast Supervisor Jeffries was in coming out,” Dennis said.

“I toured the area between Lake Elsinore and Wildomar. I was very impressed with the multi-agency response and cooperation. Police and fire, and public works staff from Lake Elsinore, Wildomar, the county, as well as Edison, all pulled together to quickly respond to emergencies, downed power lines, and reopen the streets,” Jeffries said.

LEUSD officials said 12 classrooms were relocated after the storm, including the band room.

“Most of the uniforms and instruments are able to be recovered,” Dennis said. “But the room was destroyed, including the risers and carpet.”

In addition to the damaged classrooms, the entire administration department and counselors’ offices were flooded. The school did open on time the next day, but Dennis said administrative staff was busy relocating computers and files so they could resume everyday school operations.

“District officials are working with the County of Riverside Flood Control and other agencies to avoid future flooding,” Dennis said.

“The impact caused by this one storm should be a wake-up call,” Jeffries said.

Temecula candidate forum addresses issues in a changing city Alex Groves Staff Writer Two incumbents and three new candidates for Temecula City Council came together on Tuesday, Sept.

16 to discuss the future of the city and how they would lead it if they were either elected or re-elected to serve as a city council member.

Much of what was discussed at the forum revolved around Temecula’s continued growth and inevitable aging. Candidates were asked questions on various topics, such as how they might improve infrastructure like aging roads and attract and maintain businesses.

Those candidates were Mayor Maryanne Edwards, Mayor ProTem Jeff Comerchero, small businessman Angel Garcia, realtor Cecilie Nelson and scientist Matt Rahn.

Edwards and Comerchero, both incumbents, touted the city’s success under their reign and pointed out its many positive attributes.

Comerchero stressed a policy of, “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it,” and mentioned Temecula’s continued prosperity amid large scale growth and change.

“Everything is going in the right direction,” Comerchero said.

“We’ve had balanced budgets every year; we continue to provide a very high level of services to our residents.”

Comerchero specifically cited a survey that indicated that 96 percent of Temecula residents were either “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with the city of Temecula.

Edwards discussed the fostering of business relations between educational institutions, the improvement of roadways and other forms of infrastructure and the completion of Temecula Valley Hospital.

“We have seen Temecula grow and change because the residents have provided so much input as to what should happen in this city,” Edwards said. “In the last four years we have seen the advancement of California State University, San Marcos in the city, and now we see a partnership with Mt. San Jacinto.”

The three new candidates at the forum differed somewhat from the incumbents in their assessment of the future of Temecula. Rahn said that while Temecula has consistently been a great place to live, strong leadership is the only way that the city can continue to thrive.

“Temecula is certainly at a crossroads,” Rahn said. “We’ve had 25 years of an absolutely outstanding history, and a legacy that needs to be protected for our city. But as we look to the next 25 years, we need to recognize that there are new opportunities for collaborations to bring cities, businesses and higher education and our community closer together to foster entrepreneurship and simulate innovation.”

Rahn said that he wants to work hand in hand with the city council to devise a master plan for the city as it continues to grow, in addition to a parks and trails plan.

Garcia noted difficulties with infrastructure and a lack of high paying jobs. He said most of what

Temecula tends to offer is service jobs, which is not conducive to keeping a young and educated populous from leaving.

“Understanding that the space in Temecula is maxed out, we need to start looking for areas that could be better-suited for manufacturing or more industrial or research-based scientific jobs. Also, working with our surrounding cities is one of the collaborative efforts that I would encourage in order to promote jobs in this region.”

Garcia said that he would like to see improvements made to roadways. He specifically noted a section of Adams Street that stops at the line between Murrieta and Temecula which causes traffic to congest elsewhere.

Nelson also noted problems with traffic in Temecula, saying she would rather stop at the Stater Bros. near her work when she commuted to Orange County rather than stop at her local shop in Temecula because she wanted her time spent in traffic to be as short as possible.

Nelson said she wanted to be on the city council to increase engagement among residents. She also said she wanted to strike out against the true and tried methods of old and wanted to try new approaches as a city council.

“Sometimes you’re just going to have to take a step forward, having no experience or inclination as to how it was done before, but what could be,” Nelson said.

By Paul Bandong Staff Writer Three hundred people -- representing businesses, local government, civic organizations, charities and themselves -- attended the inaugural Champion’s Lunch on September 12, 2014, hosted by Rancho Damacitas Children & Family Services. Over $93,000 was raised from those present that day, not counting the formally presented checks and sponsors.

Joseph Gray, Chairman of the Board of Directors for Rancho Damacitas, welcomed the full house at Temeku Hills ballroom.

Pastor Scott Treadway of Rancho Community Church, also a longtime Board member, offered an opening prayer.

The fundraising luncheon featured the presentation of the first Jim Fullmer Visionary Award.

Fullmer’s vision 30 years ago to help a few troubled girls has grown into the Rancho Damacitas program that today is supporting 36 boys and girls in six family-style homes. Fullmer presented the inaugural Visionary Award in memory of Helen Lovaas, who first became acquainted with Rancho Damacitas in 2001 and faithfully supported and served the ministry until her passing at the beginning of the year.

Brittany Farmer is a recent success story for Rancho Damacitas.

She graduated this past year with a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Biola University. Farmer shared her life journey of abandonment, adoption, and rejection and the healing role that Rancho Damacitas played in her recovery, development, achievement and goals. The smiling and outgoing young lady plans to be a therapist and work with orphans overseas; she also wants to counsel families and plans to return to school for her master’s degree. In January, she will spend a year in Madagascar, teaching English and working with children.

It All Starts With The Right Team

Greg McGuff, Vice President of Lennar Homes, shared the need for Project Independence, a program to help former foster youth to transition successfully into adulthood. Foster programs end at age 18; often these new adults find themselves in “poverty, homeless and facing barriers that prevent them from entering the work force or pursuing college or vocational training.” Project Independence provides support and training tailored specifically to each individual’s circumstances. Lennar Homes has custom-designed a home that allows apartment suite style living as well common areas for training/education.

Mcguff and Mark Torres, Division President for Lennar Homes, presented a check for $100,000 and an offer to match funds donated on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Brad Neet, CEO of Rancho Springs Medical Center, presented a check for $20,000 from the Scott Crane Memorial Charity Golf Tournament. Simonne Gallagher, President of the Nurses Auxiliary, presented a check for $5000.

Guest Speaker Kermit Alexander – an NFL Pro Bowler who played with the 49ers, Rams, and Eagles -- shared his personal story of regret at not helping out a young troubled teen when he had the chance and how that teen was eventually responsible for the death of Alexander’s father. He congratulated the community for their willingness to step up and help teens at a critical time in their lives.

“This was a very successful event,” said Cliff Nunn, director of development, “We are genuinely overwhelmed and so thankful for the generous support this community provides for our ministry of hope and healing for kids.”

Get Shamrocked Irish Festival rocks Murrieta

Claddagh Irish Dance Company Murrieta dancers entertain guests attending the second Shane Gibson photo annual Get Shamrocked Irish Festival in Murrieta on Sept. 21.

“Dancin’ Pat” Moran dances to live Irish music performed by the band “The American Wake” during the festival.

The luck of the Irish came through for the second annual Get Shamrocked Irish Festival 2014 held September 19, 20 and 21 in the Murrieta Town Square Park.

Record-breaking temperatures in the valley cooled down just in time for crowds to enjoy the three-day musical event.

Get Shamrocked is the new player on the Irish festival scene in Southern California. It brought the best Irish and Celtic bands to the stage to create a weekend of Irish magic. Some of the bands came from as far away as Canada and Ireland to participate.

Close to 8,000 revelers flocked to the festival. Friday and Saturday was for adults over the age of 21 while Sunday was a familyfriendly day for all ages.

Event organizer Paul Little said he started the Irish festival in Murrieta partly because he saw the success of the Temecula Valley Wine & Balloon Festival.

“I wanted to see something

different in Murrieta and to bring more people to town,” Little said.

“The Murrieta Chamber of Commerce was instrumental in this year’s event. We’re thrilled to be working side by side to produce the festival.”

Little has experience organizing events in the United Kingdom and he and his business partner Graham Judge are owners of the Shamrock Irish Pub & Eatery in Murrieta. They wanted to help draw more people into the city he now calls homes.

Get Shamrocked booked 15 Irish bands to play this year. The festive Irish music filled the air creating a positive, lighthearted atmosphere.

Guests danced to bands such as Derek Warfield & the Young Wolfe Tones, Dublin 4 and Whiskey Sunday.

There were also close to 40 vendors selling food, clothing, vacation and Irish décor.

“We were here last year and had a great time, but this year is even better,” said Devilicious Food Truck Manager Robert Wassmuth

said.

One of the popular items served by the Devilicious Food Truck was a “Crab-Crab Cake” sandwich made with real crabmeat on a toasted bun with a special tangy seafood sauce.

Band members of Whiskey Sunday stayed after their opening act to enjoy the other bands playing throughout Sunday afternoon.

“We are having a smashing time,” said Olivia Sandoval, who plays the double bass in the band.

“This festival is run very professional. It’s a tightly run ship and all the bands are nice and supportive of each other,” said Deidre Moore, the electronic harp and harmonica player for Whiskey Sunday.

The third annual Get Shamrocked Irish Festival 2015 dates are set and more information is at www.GetShamrocked.com.

The Shamrock Irish Pub & Eatery is located at 39252 Winchester Rd.

A family hangs out under umbrellas to escape from the glaring sun while watching bands play Sunday.

Xenia concert helps raise money for Temecula children in need

Coastal Cities Jazz Band presents “A Tribute to Barbra Streisand” featuring Sharon Owens

Kim Harris Special to the Valley News Xenia Martinez was only 16 when she was selected to compete on NBC’s popular talent competition, “The Voice.” Like any young girl she could only dream how her life would change when country music superstar Blake Shelton chose her for his team.

“I was on “The Voice” in season one which was in 2011,” the singer now known only as Xenia said. “It was a life changing experience. It was huge and it just changed everything; it was drastic.”

Xenia’s success on the show, she finished second on Shelton’s team before being eliminated in the semifinal rounds, has opened many doors for her to pursue a fulltime music career.

“It’s something I knew I wanted to do as a career,” said the now 19-yearold singer songwriter. “The show, it opened a lot of doors and gave me a lot of opportunities.”

It’s been three years since Xenia made a name for herself and she continues to work on her career. Once called a “superstar,” by Shelton, her raspy, robust voice has caught the attention of music icons such as Jennifer Lopez, Kelly Clarkson and Avril Lavigne. Her first single, “Sing You Home,” has received nearly a million views on YouTube.

Set to release her second EP, “Artemisa,” Xenia hasn’t forgotten where she comes from. The album, set to release in October, is named after her grandmother and she is set to perform in Temecula on October 11 at a fundraising concert for local non-profit Rose Again Foundation.

Founded by her friend Natalie Shadle, Rose Again Foundation works to help meet the needs of children in the local community.

“I love what they are doing to support foster children, adopted children and orphans,” said Xenia who is a self-proclaimed big supporter of children. “I just thought it was great how they are working so hard to support those children in our community.”

Xenia said she believes people don’t realize how many disadvantaged youth there are in the community and that she hopes to bring awareness to the cause through her performance, all while making a difference in the lives of the children who find themselves in tough situations.

“I just thought it was such a great opportunity for me to help them,” she said.

Xenia will headline the concert that also features local favorite Dulaney & Co. Tickets for the concert are on sale now and can be purchased online by visiting www.RoseAgainFoundation.org. Reserved table seating is available at the event.

Concertgoers are invited to purchase additional tickets for use by foster children and to bring along a book to donate to the cause.

Sponsorships are also available and range in price from $1,000 - $3,000 and can be purchased online by contacting board secretary Rhonda Reinke by calling (951) 970-2518 or sending an email to roseagainfoundation@gmail.com.

Through it all Xenia remains grateful to her time on “The Voice” and her mentor Shelton.

“If it weren’t for Blake and my time on ‘The Voice’ I think I would still be at home trying to figure it all out,” Xenia said. “Going on to the show, no one really knew I sang other than my family. It was a big deal …

I was very fortunate to make it all the way to the end. It really gave my career a huge boost.”

TEMECULA – Fans of longtime singer and performer Barbra Streisand will likely be flocking to Temecula Valley High School’s Golden Bear Theater for a performance by Sharon Owens, a Barbra Streisand impersonator and tribute artist.

Owens – who has more than two decades of musical experience – will be preforming a medley of popular Streisand hits on the Golden Bear stage at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 27.

The singer first started her journey as an impersonator in 1992. It was her uncanny resemblance to Streisand and her vocal ability to sing the artist’s songs that got her started as a Legends performer.

Over the years, Owens has per-

Local SIBELL from page A-1 a room adorned with Minnie Mouse décor, tables filled with oversized lollipops, presents and pink Minnie Mouse cupcakes.

Special guests to the prom included Cinderella, Princess Jasmine, Snow White, Tinker Bell, Peter Pan and Queen Elsa.

However, Kyndall was the belle of the ball. She’s only 3-years old, but her parents are spending the next 365 days crossing off a bucket list of dreams they want to share with her because she’s been diagnosed with a rare progressive disorder linked to a genetic mutation. She is possibly the only child in the United States or world to have this mutation.

“The doctors are calling her condition Kyndall’s Disease, it is so rare,” said Jennifer Horsburgh, her aunt, who lives in Temecula.

“Her body is failing her. Her heart isn’t as strong, neither are her kidneys.”

The prom is part of Kyndall’s 365 Days of Fun, a project started by her parents Lianne and Dominic Sibell of Silverado in Orange County. They are former Temecula residents.

“Kyndall's time left with us is short, but it is my quest to make it as fun filled and memorable as possible,” Lianne Sibell wrote on the family’s GoFundMe page on the Internet.

“I was once that career driving mom. But when children services come into the hospital room with

the doctors and tell you your child is going to die, it really puts things into perspective,” Lianne Sibell said. “I wish my child didn’t have to have her life cut short to learn this lesson, but I am trying to make lemons out of lemonade.”

The Sibells have created a bucket list of all the things they want to do with Kyndall. Seeing their daughter go to prom was one dream.

“I don’t want her leave this earth without knowing how loved she is. We are going to make sure we can have fun every day,” Lianne Sibell said.

“Going to the prom is such a

special thing for kids and now we get to share this special moment with her,” Dominic Sibell said.

“I just want to see her smile and laugh, it lights up my world.”

Kyndall’s 1-year old brother D.J. Sibell and 6-year-old sister Paige Sibell, along with grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, attended the special event.

Kyndall danced with Disney princesses to “Let it Go” from the Disney movie “Frozen.” She ate cupcakes and her family tried to wipe pink frosting off her face in between photos. Minnie and Mickey stopped by for a visit.

After a lunch break, Kyndall

changed her wardrobe with the help of her grandmothers. Her second outfit was an authentic pink Minnie Mouse princess dress.

“This prom is amazing. It is beyond anything we expected,” said Sandi Young, also known as Nana to Kyndall.

“She truly is grace,” said Lauri Martin, Kyndall’s aunt. “She will light up the world with her smile.”

“While Kyndall is here with us we will have fun,” Lianne Sibell said. “We dance every day, we have wheelchairs races in the parking lot and camp out under the kitchen table.”

The Sibells said they want to establish a happy presence and are teaching their other two children that although they may not be able to save “sissy” they can try to help other kids.

As the event wound down, the fairies and princesses gathered around Kyndall and her family to share hugs and kisses. When guests headed out they were asked to sign a card to fill up the Kyndall Love Bucket and were offered a bag of treats to remind them of the sweet smiles and giggles of Kyndall.

Alpaca Open Ranch Days to teach public about alpacas Jodi Thomas Staff Writer Every year, Julie and Don Roy open up their Alpacas of the Anza Valley Ranch to the public for a special visit.

This will be the 7th Annual Open Ranch Days, an event that will feature the Roy’s Alpaca herd. It will be the babies of the

herd that will be the stars of this year’s event.

The Roy’s story “The Entrepreneurial Path; Alpacas of the Anza Valley” was recently told in Lifestyles Magazine. It explains that Don and Julie do not just raise alpacas but create and live an “Alpaca Lifestyle,” something they love to share.

high up in the Andes mountains grazing on highland pastures and are well suited to the high country of Anza.

Alpacas have become increasingly popular here in the U.S. over the last decade and the Roy family have been a part of that trend. They’ve birthed over 102 babies in the last 10 years while educating, teaching and helping others plan and discover their own “Alpaca Lifestyle.”

Alpacas are primarily raised for their superior fleece, which is popularly known as the “fiber of the gods.” The fibers they produce are extremely soft against the skin, hypo-allergenic, lightweight and very warm.

Alpaca fiber has unique thermal

and breathability properties; on warm days it allows moisture to be wicked away, keeping people cool. On cold days, it seals heat in.

Garments made of its fibers, the softest yarn around, are superior in strength and far more durable than if made of wool. In this day and age of ever-increasing allergies, this ancient fiber is becoming a popular substitute for quilt batting over the ever popular polyester and even over cotton types of batting.

Overall, Alpaca fleece is better for the environment and causes less allergic reactions than sheep wool because it does not contain lanolin that requires harsh chemicals in order to process.

This year’s Open Ranch Days will be held on Sept. 27 and 28, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free. The event will consist of educational tours, spinning demonstrations, live music, fun activities for the kids, photo opportunities and more.

Direction to Open Ranch Days: From Temecula go east toward Warner Springs on Hwy 79 then to Hwy 371 towards Anza. Turn onto Cary Road, and then watch for signs. The address for the event is 52700 Ardwell Dr; it will be located on left-hand side of the road. For additional questions, call (951)-763-4222.

Temecula-based brewery and pizza parlor aims to provide good food fast

Garage Brewing Co. features revolving guest taps in addition to their own ten taps with seasonal beers rotated in.

T

emecula may be known for its vast array of wineries, but a Temeculabased brewery and pizzeria has recently gained popularity and acclaim for its unique and varied menu.

The Garage Brewery Co., located on Old Town Front Street, has won awards for its fast casual dining approach as well as for some of its brews.

The restaurant provides an ambience and an experience that’s somewhat different than what other pizzerias in Temecula offer, as diners can create something totally unique for themselves by choosing their own mixture of the restaurant’s versatile array of toppings.

With items like jalapenos, a r t i c h o k e s , r o s e m a r y, tomatoes, salami and more, diners can create their own one-of-a-kind pizza creation and have it cooked up right away.

Garage owner Lou Kashmere was inspired to start a restaurant a little more than a year ago, when the tire shop that rented his building decided to leave that location.

He had wanted to start a pizza restaurant that was unique and challenging.

Kashmere said his restaurant stands apart from others in Temecula not only for its individualized pizzas, but also for its unique take on beer varieties. The restaurant

boasts 18 different varieties, from lesser known internationallyinspired beers to popular brews like IPAs. The restaurant also specializes in flavored beers. It’s won a gold medal for its Mango Hefeweizen at the LA International Beer Competition in 2014 and a silver medal for its Flatbed Blueberry Cream Ale at the California State Fair’s 2014 Brewers’ Festival.

Kashmere said that as a small brewery, Garage tries to create quality products that stand out among the crowd. They have the benefit of taking time to properly ferment, filter and flavor their beers.

“We’re not a production brewery and that makes a difference,” Kashmere said.

“We’re basically not producing beer for the masses, but very small amounts of craft beer made at a very high standard.”

The same commitment to quality that marks Garage’s brewery craft also carries over into the food they produce. Kashmere said he only uses fresh and high quality ingredients whenever crafting food dishes. Vegetables are chopped up promptly after arriving to his facility and he only uses a certain kind of flour for his dough. That flour is shipped in all the way from Italy.

“As a small brewery, Garage tries to create quality products that stand out among the crowd.

They have the benefit of taking time to properly ferment, filter and flavor their beers.”

At Garage Brewing Co. pizzas are fast fired and cook in less than 3 minutes.

implementing new menu items that maintain the restaurant’s fresh take and commitment to quality.

He hopes to soon unveil a line of sandwiches.

But overall, Kashmere said he’s very excited about the restaurant’s versatility and regular output of new or novel menu items.

“We’re always changing things up,” he said.

All dough ferments in a cooled storage facility for one day until it expands and matures enough to be used for pizza crust. From there the restaurant uses a specialized machine to perfectly flatten the dough to the right thickness before topping it with ingredients and throwing it into their perfectly heated oven.

Kashmere said he’s excited for the future of the restaurant. Right now it specializes in pizzas, but he says he’s looking forward to

Alex’s Lemonade Stand at Discovery Isle Ashten Dreyer Valley News Intern Things were sure getting sweet at Discovery Isle’s Lemonade stand on September 17.

With the spunk of 10 kindergarteners and their helpful teachers and parents, these brightly clad kids were working a lemonade stand in

hopes of raising money for childhood cancer research, one cup at a time.

“We decided to do this about a month ago,” said Assistant Principal Kristi Polk. “We’ve now been doing it for two weeks. We’ve had all of our teachers contribute by making baked goods that were either yellow or lemon flavored for our huge bake sale, and now were doing the lemonade stand this week.”

With a starting goal of $500, these kids managed to raise nearly $1,000. The proceeds go to the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a foundation that began in 2000 when 4-year-old cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott requested to hold a lemonade stand to raise money to find a cure for all children with cancer.

Kindergarteners Emi Zelesnikar and Hudson Downs were manning

the booth, and were eager to serve up a glass of delicious lemonade, but also share as to why they were doing this in the first place.

The kids said they were trying to find a way to make the cancer go away, because Alex was only 8-years-old when she died of cancer, and that they don’t want any kids to be sick anymore.

Chamber of commerce holds forum for voters

Menifee candidates spar over accusations, experience and development Michelle Mears-Gerst Special to the Valley News The campaigns for Menifee’s mayor and city council positions are heating up. With six weeks left before elections on November 4, the controversy among candidates of alleged wrongdoings and differences in development is heating up.

On September 14, Mayor Scott Mann, who’s running for re-election, announced he was the target of “scurrilous and false” flyers being distributed around town. Mann claimed the flyers were in violation of the Code of Fair Campaign Practices and it was a smear campaign against him.

Although Mann did not accuse fellow mayoral candidate Paul Wiggins of the actions, Mann demanded Wiggins publicly denounce the attacks.

Mann wrote in a press release, “This cheap shot was anonymous,

PROGRAM from page A-1 back gifted children, something that supporters of the sometimes controversial program say is simply not true.

“They were inaccurate,” Chief Academic Officer for Riverside County Diana Asseier said of the claims made by the group.

Common Core standards can be confusing because of its components so it’s important for parents to educate themselves regarding the program before reaching a decision on where they stand on the standards.

“We have information on our website, there are links where parents or any interested party can go and look at the questions that are asked on tests, learn the history of the program or simply to learn more about Common Cores State Standards,” said Karen Parris, public information officer for the MVUSD. Common Core is a set of standards developed by teachers, parents, school administrators, and experts from across the country.

Together with state leaders the

without proper identification of the sender, and in violation of the state Political Reform Act.” Wiggins denied knowing about the flyer and has not made the public announcement Mann requested.

“I called Scott myself and told him I knew nothing about it,” Wiggins said.

Wiggins and Mann were both absent from a candidate forum held September 17 at the Kay Ceniceros Senior Community Center. The forum was sponsored by the Menifee Chamber of Commerce. Mann was out of town on business and Wiggins said in a phone interview that he was not going to attend, if Mann was not going to be there.

At the forum, candidates for city council presented their campaign platforms. The forum was moderated and no questions were taken from the audience.

John Baker, a candidate for Dis-

trict 2 was absent, but a prepared statement was read on his behalf by resident Michael Mudd.

District 4 Councilmember John Denver is running for re-election against Gloria Sanchez. Denver attacked Sanchez for what he calls a lack of experience working for the government.

Denver admitted he voted for Sanchez to be on the Senior Advisory Committee in Menifee. “Her only experience is working with the seniors,” Denver said.

Denver pointed out his years of work in local government including, serving on the Menifee City Council since 2008 and being a 17-year member of the Perris Unified School District Board of Trustees.

Sanchez told the audience she has been serving on the Riverside County Council on Aging for 15 years and is and the current chair of the Senior Advisory Committee. She

said she will represent all residents, not just seniors.

“I want to work with developers so we can bring in smart development.

I believe in low density for our city,” Sanchez said.

District 2 is also battling development. Councilmember Tom Fuhrman is running for re-election against candidate Matt Liesemeyer, chair of the Planning Commission and Sue Kristjansson, a former city councilmember.

Fuhrman addressed news reports concerning his eviction filing in Riverside Superior Court in August against Roxann Thompson, a resident of his Wooden Nickel Ranch.

She’s his former business and political partner.

“I’ve thrown myself and my property on the sword to fight for property rights,” Fuhrman said.

Fuhrman wants to develop Menifee further and Quail Valley, a com-

munity located in the city’s western hills. Quail Valley has been plagued with sewer issues for years.

Liesemeyer disagreed and said economic development should be focused on the areas along Haun and Newport roads near the 215 Freeway.

“We need to leave Quail Valley alone. There are a lot of residents out there who are already living their lifestyles the way they want to,” said Liesemeyer, who has served on the Planning Commission for five years and worked on the current general plan.

Kristjansson wants development to blend the needs of seniors and the rural community.

“I have the drive and I have the proven capability. I can make a difference in Menifee,” Kristjansson said.

group provided input into the development of the standards which are designed to ensure success for high school students entering two- or four-year colleges or going directly into the workforce.

The standards are a set of requirements for students in kindergarten through 12th grade in English, language arts/literacy and mathematics.

According to the Common Core website, www.corestandards.org, the standards create consistency across the United States which provides teachers, parents and students with a clear set of expectations that ensure all students can succeed in college and life upon graduation from high school, regardless of where they live.

Standards are aligned to the expectations of colleges, workforce training programs and employers.

They are designed to promote equity by ensuring all students are well prepared for life after high school and eliminate the previous problem of standards varying from state to state, the website states.

“In my opinion, the Common Core allow students to access learn-

ing that is rigorous but also relates to how it is used in real life,” said Asseier, adding that leaders for the four main college systems in the state support Common Core. “It allows teachers to take their students more in-depth on things and have them really think about their own learning and how they can apply it in life.”

Common Core standards do not tell teachers what to teach but rather allow teachers to determine what works best in the classroom.

The standards simply establish what students need to learn. Each individual school district and its teachers decide how to best help students reach the standards laid out under Common Core.

According to the California Department of Education website www.cde.ca.gov, full implementation of Common Core in the state was expected to occur this year.

But according to Tina Jung, a public information officer with the department, since Common Core is voluntary the state is not tracking which school districts are currently using the standards.

“Actually we would hope that it

is the case because the tests in the spring will be based on the Common Core,” she said.”However, the CDE does not track which schools implement it because the adoption of the CCSS [Common Core State Standards] is voluntary. Also, adoption of the CCSS at the local school level is all voluntary.”

Asseier said while districts are not required to adopt Common Core California’s use of Common Core standards for all testing left school districts little adoption but to use the standards.

“The reality is that the state has adopted the Common Core and the state assessments are being designed around the Common Core,” she said. “Every district will be required to take those assessments.

The state has issued funding to implement Common Core which every district has accepted at this point. By default we have all adopted the Common Core.”

The California Department of Education is responsible for ensuring all students are meeting standards, whether Common Core standards are used or not.

Asseier says in the legislation regarding the 1997 standards, districts could use the state standards or adopt their own.

“A lot of the districts who adopted their own standards discovered that since the assessments had to be the state standards they were better served by adopting the state standards then adding to it as needed,” she said.

One of the biggest concerns raised by the group is the claim that students who are gifted are being held back under Common Core Standards, a claim that both Asseier and Parris said is simply not true.

A search of classes on several of the district’s high school websites revealed that there are a variety mathematics classes available for students of all levels, not just one class for students of all levels as REM has claimed.

“It isn’t the case and there will continue to be advanced math classes available to students as early as middle school,” Parris said.

One of the common misconceptions of the Common Core standards, according to Asseier, is that while California adopted the Common Core standards, the state also took the option to add an additional 15 percent to those standards.

“So we have the Common Core plus what California has added. The other piece that California did differently is while California adopted the Common Core math standards, they also adopted algebra at the eighth grade,” she said, adding it is up to each individual district to determine how they would accelerate math for its students who are gifted.

“Most of the districts have done that already,” Asseier said. “These are foundational standards. The skills each student are required to master are the minimum not the maximum. Every school has advanced classes, honors classes that take students above and beyond.”

Another claim brought up by REM was the allegation that is against the law for students, parents and administrators to look at questions being given the students,

something Assiere believes is just a simple misunderstanding.

“What I think they must be referring to here are the assessments,” she said. “When a statewide assessment is administered we are not allowed to look at the questions. You can’t take them and just teach the kids based on the questions on the assessments. It has nothing to do with the Common Core and is often confused with the assessments.

California has its adopted assessment system which is completely separate from the Common Core.”

Another claim regarding the questions children are being asked regarding sexual orientation and gun ownership could not be verified. While a Freedom of Information Act request to the state has not been addressed as of press time, research conducted by the Valley News shows no records of the questions being asked on testing.

A link on the MVUSD website does give sample questions asked on testing but no questions similar to REM’s claim appear. Asseier said while she has never seen those questions herself, it is possible they could be part of the Healthy Kids Survey.

“I don’t know if those questions are on it because I have never looked at it,” she said. “The Healthy Kids survey is mostly to find out about kids habits such as smoking and drinking.”

Parents also expressed concern regarding the use of acrostics in the classroom. According to Encyclopedia Britannica, the short-verse compositions have been used for centuries. Acrostics – not a new practice in education – are commonly used to reinforce learning in poetry, Asseire said.

“I’m not familiar with using acrostics for spelling but perhaps it helps students to learn how to spell, it can work as a pneumonic device,” she said.

For parents who aren’t happy with Common Core there are options according to Asseire.

“The adopted set of standards is the guaranteed education,” she said. “The right of every child at every public school is that they get an education that is grounded in the subject areas. A parent might want to choose their own child’s education; they don’t get to choose the education for every child in the district. This is where we have options; they might chose private school or do home school if they really do not want the students to have the curriculum.”

The reality, according to Asseire, is that the standards are “very sensible.”

“They are what we already had in our standards before; they are what students should know and be able to do and so if the students are taught and they are assessed based on a high level of standards, my guess is they will do fine on the assessments,” she said. “The question would be are the standards rigorous, do they in fact encompass the areas in which students are expected to perform? Our standards in the past haven’t done that, they are very factual and knowledge based and haven’t taken the students beyond comprehension.”

REAL ESTATE / HOME & GARDEN

The basics of buying distressed properties Paul Bandong Staff Writer Despite a strong return to standard sales, distressed properties still exist and are in high demand here in southern California. The properties are attractive for their perceived discounts and potential profits.

Foreclosures, short sales and REO’s (real-estate-owned) are all considered distress sales, but are different from one another. Not every short sale is in foreclosure, but many are. Not all foreclosures are short sales. REO’s are not short sales, but some short sales end up as REO’s. It’s a complicated situation and may require specialized knowledge to handle the purchase.

Foreclosure: This is a home on which a Notice of Default has been filed in public records. The most common reason for foreclosure is nonpayment of the mortgage for a certain period of time, often as little as two months.

The lender then gives “notice” that they will sell the property unless the payments in arrears are brought up to date.

If the loan is not brought current,

the lender will foreclose upon the property, taking it away from the homeowner. Often the lender will auction the property to the highest bidder at a public sale. Not all foreclosures go to public sale; the homeowner has an irrevocable right for a specified period of time (known as the redemption period) to cure the default, including paying missed principal payments, back interest and foreclosure costs.

Real estate investors and home buyers can often buy the foreclosed property for the amount owed.

They see profit in acquiring the home and gaining the homeowner’s equity for free.

The optimal time for buyers is during the time period after the foreclosure process has been initiated but before the foreclosure sale occurs; this is known as “pre-foreclosure.” Buyers are extended all the standard protections of regular purchase transactions – access to the property, expert inspection of the property, and the ability to qualify the purchase on the issuance of title insurance – as well as statutory protections, which mandate that the seller provide a “transfer disclosure statement” (disclosing property conditions). Many of these rights do not exist if a buyer purchases at the foreclosure sale or after the

trustee’s sale.

Potential drawbacks for buying at trustee sale include not being able to inspect the house before making a bid, possible eviction of current occupants, possible retaliation activities by occupant (including lack of repairs; theft/sale of appliances/fixtures; intentional damage, etc.), or possible recorded liens against the property. These homes are sold “as is.” Banks are not required to disclose what they don’t know. These situations can potentially be very costly for the buyer.

These transactions are subject to the provisions of the Home Equity

Sales Contract Act, which was designed to protect equity sellers from unscrupulous buyers and imposes obligations upon potential buyers of those properties.

A major provision of the Act gives the seller an absolute right to cancel the contract within five days.

The buyer cannot take title, transfer interest, or pay any consideration to the seller during this time. Buyers must also give the seller notice of that right to cancel, including a copy of the form to cancel. Other contract technicalities also apply to the buyer and their ‘representative’.

Failure to comply with the Act carries severe penalties, including a provision that gives the seller the right to cancel the sale up to two years after the sale has closed and get the property back.

Short Sale: This situation occurs when a lender agrees to accept less than the amount owed on a property; often the property is in foreclosure, but has not yet gone to public auction.

Sellers do not need to be in default for a short sale to occur; values may have fallen or the seller may be over-encumbered (owe more than the home is worth so a discounted

Healthy & Beautiful Gardens Landscaping with plants from Asia

Linda McDonald-Cash Landscape Designer Hello fellow gardeners. This week as promised I’d like to let you know about some of the great plants we get from Asia, which consists of China, Japan, Korea, etc. These plants do well in our area and as always, I steer clear of those that need ample water, which we don’t have.

Let’s start out with plants from Japan. First of all any plant that starts with the name “Japanese” is your first clue – sometimes it will state xxxxx - japonica – japonica is the botanical name for the country of origin Japan. Aucuba japonica is a beautiful large shrub with leathery yellow and green leaves, gets up to 10’ tall and 4-6’ wide. The Daylily is native to Japan, there are soooo

many gorgeous hybrids, colors and sizes now, one of the best lower flowering plants you can add to your landscape, they come in evergreen and deciduous varieties also.

One my favorites, and I have a large one growing right next to the front entry of my home is Crassula Ovata better known as the Jade Plant – succulent, drought tolerant, late winter flowering, one tough plant! Doesn’t like frost, so keep it against the house facing South or southwest for the winter – or a pot which you can move around. There is a bizarre variety of this called “Gollum”, very unique almost tubular leaves, mines still young but I have high hopes for him!

Japanese Barberry – Berberis thunbergii ‘Atropupurea’ is a beautiful plant, a deep reddish burgundy color, great in the landscape, there are both deciduous and evergreen varieties, check for size, they prefer partial shade in the Inland Empire from my experience.

[Above] Chrysanthemums in the fall garden [Left] This is called Camillia japonica ‘Rosa’

D i d you know one of the most popular flowering plants

at this time of year is from Japan?

The Chrysanthemum comes in just about every color you can imagine and many different size plants also.

They actually flower in the Spring

and intermittently through the summer, but for a big burst in the fall, you need to dead head voraciously

often sellers are slow to return these documents.

A seller may accept an offer, but it is still subject to acceptance by the lender or lenders. It is important to know how many mortgage loans are recorded; all lenders will need to sign off on the offer. The senior lender in first position will get the bulk of the proceeds; the second or third mortgage lender may have to write off significant amounts of their loans. In some cases, the mortgage loan may have been sold to another lender, further complicating the process.

Buying a short sale makes great financial sense for a buyer who wants to occupy the home as well as for the investor wanting to get instant equity as long as they are willing to work their way through the long and complex process.

price may be necessary to match market value).

Unlike with foreclosure, investor and buyers can purchase the home for less since they are not paying off existing loans or making up back payments. They are basically making a deal with the existing lender to take less to avoid dealing with the foreclosure process that can take time and cost the lender additional expense.

Many short sales are listed low to spur multiple offers, but offers are still subject to lender approval.

Lenders will require appraisals and often BPO’s (Broker Price Opinions).

Short sales typically take two to four months to close, but have been known to take up to six months or longer. Sellers have to provide listing agents with a completed short sale package (hardship letter, tax returns, W-2’s, payroll stubs, financial statement, bank statements);

owns. Many banks will not sell homes directly to buyers, usually listing with REO agents who specialize in such foreclosure listings.

More commonly, banks will do bulk sales in which they package a number of properties into one transaction with one entity.

Investor groups with deep pockets can usually negotiate the deepest discounts.

Buying the REO is similar to buying a short sale. The lender usually acquires the property through a foreclosure and will often sell these repossessed homes for less than the past loan balance.

Banks usually end up owning the property when there is not a bid sufficient to cover the amount owed on the property.

Banks may utilize an asset manager who will list their properties with agents who specialize in REOs; often this may be dozens to hundred of properties. REO agents may also pay fees to asset managers, up to one-third of the listing agent’s commissions. The REO agent must produce volume to offset the discount. REO agents are also often contracted to secure and fix up the homes.

These sales often generate multiple offers. Lenders may accept the best offer or ask the top two or three to resubmit “Highest and Final” offers. Usually the bank’s accepted price is between the original mortgage balance(s) and the foreclosure sale price (which can be found on the Trustee’s Deed or Sheriff’s Deed).

Many investors and buyers favor purchasing REO properties since sellers are no longer a part of the process. Many REOs are purchased directly from the bank or lender.

There are distressed properties available for sale, but the process may be complicated. Buyers should consult with experts – real estate agents, attorneys, accountants and contractors – experienced with these types of transactions.

Real Estate / Home & Garden LANDSCAPING from page B-1 in mid-summer, fertilize, and get ready!

Of course you know the Japanese Cherry blossom tree, the Japanese Black Pine, the Liriope or “Lily turf”, the Japnese Maple (needs a little more water and some shade, ideally planted under a larger tree such as a pine or oak) Mugo pines, many varieties of plum and apricots, Pittosporum tobira aka Japanese pittosporum becomes a small tree or large shrub up to 12’ eventually without pruning, spring flowers are nicely scented and also a variegated variety which is very common around housing tracts here for a good reason. Pyrus kawakamii aka ornamental pear is planted often as a street tree and will do well in lawns, its nearly evergreen, with blossoms in the spring, great green leaves and then beautiful orange and red fall color.

Cinnamomum camphora aka the Camphor Tree is a great tree for our area, evergreen, it likes moisture but can tolerate less if necessary, beautiful specimen tree.

Of course I don’t want to forget the Camellia. Camellia japonica, these are evergreen shrubs, and they do like some water, however, due to their beautiful blooms in the dead of winter, I had to mention these, they prefer partial shade.

The camellia sasanqua can take a little more sun than japonica.

Let me try to cover some of the best of Chinese plants here now.

Ginko biloba, aka “Maidenhair tree” one of the oldest trees on the planet, surviving over 200 million years – beautiful tree with fan shaped leaves, slightly messy though so plant it where that won’t bother you. – turns gorgeous golden color in the fall. Berberis – Chinese holly grape – great medium to large shrub, very striking, purplish blue fruit replace yellow

flower in the summer – prefers semi-shaded areas inland.

Bergenia is an unusual low growing, pink flowering plants that does well in dry semi-shady areas – large rounded leaves are each 6” across and long. Both the Chinese and the Japanese Persimmon is a great shrub for the yard here in SoCal – they do need moderate watering for best fruit production though – as do most fruit trees – gorgeous fall color!

One of my favorite deciduous trees comes from China originally, its called the Chinese Pistache and here in Southern California its one of the best fall color trees around, next to the Liquidambar tree – absolutely beautiful.

Another large group of flowering shrubs from Asia are the “Cotoneasters”, most have red berries in the fall and winter, all shapes and sizes, very tough plants. Cotinus or “Smoke tree” is a real knock out in the garden, it’s a smaller sized tree, only 15’ high, and Cotinus coggygria ‘Pink Champagne’ will

have people “oohing and aaahing” in front of your house guaranteed, when its blooming.

One other plant I’d like to mention here is the rose native to this area, the native China rose, and “musk” roses, without which we would NOT have all the rose varieties we do today.

This rose was crossed with roses from Europe, the Gallicas, Albas, etc. that only bloomed once a year, and because the China rose was re-blooming or “remontant” we were able to have gorgeous repeat blooming roses. The roses of China, the “tea” rose etc. had colors that the European roses did not have, yellows, and when those were crossed with the pinks, burgundies, and whites of the European roses we got all the incredible colors we now enjoy.

Abelia, many varieties, are found in many gardens, easy to care for, flowering in spring, and undemanding. The variety ‘Edward Goucher’ is a favorite, I prefer to see them looking natural myself, not made into “muffins”.

One last one I have to mention here is the Crepe myrtle – “Lagerstoemia” native to China and Japan, it does extremely well in our area, loves heat, beautiful flowers in summer and fall color to boot!

I use these often in my designs.

Well, folks, I’m over my limit, but couldn’t stop – please join me next week when I will be discuss-

Real Estate / Home & Garden

Ready for the appraiser’s appraisal? Part 2 of 2

John Occhi and Mike Mason Special to the Valley News Last week we discussed real estate appraisals and gave an overview of what a licensed appraiser looks at when evaluating and determining his or her opinion of the property’s value. We learned that the exterior of the home is as important as the interior. The appraisal will not only be considering “location” but the quality of the construction and the condition of the roof, the walls and the foundation – three critical elements of any residential real estate structure.

We learned that size really does matter and the more bedrooms and baths in a home, the higher the value will go. Interior fixtures contribute to the overall value as do any home improvements. Essentially, anything that is done to improve the value of the home – if it is done well – will generally contribute to the overall value of your real estate.

The “comparable sales method” is the most common recognized method for determining the current value of a home. Your home will be compared to “like” homes in your neighborhood that have recently sold. The appraiser will ultimately make adjustments for the location of each property, the age of the home, the condition as well as what amenities your home offers and how it differs from the comparable sales.

Why did the appraisal come in low?

If you’ve ever had an appraiser determine that your home is worth less than what the buyer is willing to pay, you know the feeling of anguish deep in the depths of your bowels that won’t go away. So, what do you do, if you just know that your home is worth more than the opinion offered by the trained professional?

First step in challenging any appraisal is to get ahold of a copy and review every single detail. You are

looking for errors – perhaps just a clerical error has had repercussions that carry over throughout the report. Something as simple as the square footage being off or the room count being wrong could make all of the difference. Maybe the appraiser thought your home was constructed with 2X4 framing when in reality it was done with 2X6s. Remember, the devil is in the details.

If everything checks out regarding your home for sale, then it’s time to look at the comparable sales. It’s possible that the appraiser is not as familiar with your neighborhood as you would have liked him or her to be. Imagine the impact of not making any adjustment for your home at the end of a cul-de-sac, in the center of your tract to one on the corner of the primary road entering your neighborhood – there might have to be an adjustment made. There are many other adjustments that may have either been overlooked entirely or not done the way you believe they should have been.

With the buyer’s cooperation, it’s normally possible to have a second appraisal done. Of course, it has to be paid for, so prepare yourself for this expense – the buyer certainly won’t be ready to spend more money. Remember, the buyer and their lender look to the appraisal for protection against over-spending.

How you can avoid a lowball appraisal While every appraiser undergoes significant education and testing to obtain and maintain their appraisers license there are always going to be good and bad appraisers, as is the case in any industry.

No matter how skilled an appraiser is, no matter how keen an eye they have for detail and no matter how extensive their market research is they are still prone to oversight and errors…remember they’re human, too.

Working with your professional REALTOR® there are steps that should be taken that will minimize the risk of a low appraisal.

Gather the facts Make a list of everything you have done to make your home more appealing and comfortable.

Providing this information to the appraiser will make their job easier and will ensure that any of these details are not overlooked.

You’ll certainly want to include any structural improvements you’ve made such as a room addition or remodel in the bath or kitchen. Provide a detailed list of all of the little improvements that compose the overall improvement to the home. Don’t just assume the appraiser will take your Sub-Zero 20 cubic foot refrigerator into account or he may give it the same weight as a 15 cubic foot Kenmore.

Make sure all system improvements are accounted for as well.

Do you have custom made triple pane wood replacement windows?

How do they compare to off-theshelf dual pane vinyl windows found at your favorite big-box home improvement store?

Clean your home It may sound obvious, and it should be; but, you’d be surprised what appraisers walk into. Remember, they are coming to your home because you want to move. Start by packing and de-cluttering the home. You’ve heard it before when getting ready to put your home on the market – well it’s still relevant.

The appraiser will discount your home based on the maintenance if it has visible dirt. Walls should be clean, floors free from wax build up and grout lines should all sparkle.

While there are many facts that determine the value, it’s still a judgment call on behalf of the appraiser and you want them to feel welcome in your home and not like they have entered a disaster zone.

Maintain the exterior of the home Curb appeal is just as relevant today as the first day you put your home on the market. Mow the lawn, weed the planters, trim the hedges and add fresh mulch to the flowerbeds. It’s true that there are no “line items” for these things but remember that your appraiser is a real person who appreciates a clean well-kept space.

General repair and maintenance are important If you haven’t already done so, now is the time to take care of those little one to 30-minute projects that

Brookfield Residential introduces new homes in Temecula, Menifee WINCHESTER – Homebuilder Brookfield Residential has introduced new homes in Winchester priced from the high $390,000s.

The elevated home designs – with features like oversized master bedrooms with spa amenities, mud rooms, and garages with space to store recreational vehicles and create a man cave or craft room – are the newest home styles being offered at the master-planned community of Morningstar Ranch.

“When we were given the opportunity to build new homes at Morningstar Ranch, we decided to create homes that would challenge the architectural norm in the region,” said Rocky Tracy, VP of Sales for Brookfield Residential Southern California. “We didn’t hold back on luxury details like curved archways, living suites, chef-caliber kitchens, multi-purpose garages and more.”

Homes at Liberty range from 3,120 to 4,157 square feet, with four to six bedrooms, 2.5 to 5.5 baths and two- to four-car garages.

Three floorplan designs offer features like spacious secondary bedrooms with walk-in closets; kitchens with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and walk-in pantries; and yards large enough for entertainment patios, swimming pools, and children’s play equipment.

Liberty at Morningstar Ranch is located within the sought-after

Temecula Valley School District, and in proximity to excellent dining and shopping options in Murrieta and Temecula. Liberty at Morningstar Ranch is located at 35392 Autumn Glen Circle, Winchester, CA 92596. For more information, please call 888-628-3516 or visit www.

BrookfieldSoCal.com.

Liberty model tours take place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, and 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesdays.

Nearby, Brookfield Residential offers new homes at Big Sky at Audie Murphy Ranch. The new Menifee homes range from 2,790 to 3,800 square feet with three to six bedrooms, 2.5 to 5.5 baths and three- to four-car garages, as well as pantries, spacious laundry rooms and walk-in linen/utility closets.

At Big Sky, where prices range from the high $300,000s, homeowners will also discover great rooms, super dining rooms, and spaces that extend to outdoor rooms. Big Sky at Audie Murphy Ranch is located at 30535 Buckboard Lane, Menifee, CA 92584.

For more information, please visit www.BrookfieldSoCal.com or call 888-537-9633. Model tours take place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, and 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesdays.

have gone neglected. Does the gate latch need to be tightened up? Is there a missing fence board that needs replacing? How about that running toilet? Make sure your air filters are clean.

These are all little things that go a long way in helping the appraiser determine the value of your home – don’t overlook any of them (and remember, the buyer will probably be having a home inspection which will call out these issues and the buyer will ultimately want them fixed anyway).

Be there When the appointed time comes for your home appraisal, you and your realtor should both plan on attending and prepared to provide the appraiser with honest and forthright answers to any questions he or she may have.

Your real estate agent should be there to represent your best interests. A realtor should have your MLS listing sheet as well as those of all relevant comps from the MLS. While it is unlikely that the appraiser has actually seen any of the comps, your realtor as a local

area expert, will have been inside most if not all of the relevant comparable sales and know the nuances that equate to adjustments – another strong reason to only work with a local realtor.

Anyone who wants top dollar for their home knows that the home has to be in top condition – for the buyers as well as the appraisers.

Anyone looking for a fair-market value for their home should still take the time to ensure that their home will meet or exceed all of the expectations of the real estate appraiser and avoid the unwanted and dreaded “low appraised value.”

HS Football: Week three review, with a look ahead at Week four JP Raineri Sports/Multimedia Editor

Week three in the local High School Football scene came with some huge surprises yet again. In the Southwestern League, Murrieta Mesa, Vista Murrieta and Temecula Valley all pulled out the stops and bettered their season records by one. Great Oak saw no change in their record due to it being their bye week; Chaparral was surprised again, getting blanked for the second time in a row and giving up 65 points defensively in the past two weeks; and Murrieta Valley dropped their

first victory of the season. Calvary Murrieta took out Rio Hondo for their second win, keeping them in second place in the standings. Santa Rosa Academy had a bye week, and Rancho Christian dropped their first game of the season to Santa Fe Christian. In the freelance league, Hamilton lost to Mammoth, giving them an even record on the season as they get set to take a week off before facing the Webb Schools in week five.

Here are week three results with a look ahead to week four:

second game of the season.

In the Sunbelt league, five of the six teams were victorious as Lakeside picked up their first win of the season and Perris and Heritage kept their undefeated seasons going as well.

Paloma Valley and Elsinore are now both even at 2-2 on the season and Temescal Canyon has yet to put it all together as they lost to La Quinta and still remain winless on the season.

Linfield bounced back with a win against Capistrano in the Ambassador league, keeping their record at .500 and in the South Valley League while the CMI Rough Riders edged out Riverside Prep to claim their

Southwestern League Carter (2-1) - 41 Chaparral (1-3) - 0 The Carter Lions from Rialto handed the visiting Chaparral Pumas their third straight loss last Friday night, defeating them 41-0 in a nonleague bout. The Puma’s head into week four with, “A much needed bye,” said head coach Ryan Tukua, who added, “We are going back to square one with our offense and a break will recharge some batteries and give some other players a chance to fight for a spot on the depth chart.”

In their next game, the Pumas play the Mission Viejo Diablos on Friday, Oct. 3. Chaparral will attempt to better its 1-3 season record as they head into league play after the game against the Diablos.

SERVICE NEEDED: After 30,000 miles, transmission fluid begins to turn brown in color and oxidize due to the contamination of time and heat.

Deposits form around the transmission’s many moving parts. As a result, valves stick and gears slip or are sluggish and chatter as they shift.

SOLUTION: Rather than just draining the contaminated flued found in the bottom of the pan, special equipment clean the entire transmission and its torque converter, while new fluid and premium conditioner are added. One of the hardest working parts of your vehicle will shift smoothly and effortlessly for many more trouble-free miles.

Sports Panthers pounce on Cardinals, 28-13 Murrieta Mesa upsets Football team opens 4-0 for first time in 32-year history Paul Bandong Sports Editor PERRIS - “It wasn’t pretty, but we got the job done,” Perris High Panthers Head Coach Chris Dowdy said. “This is the first time that Perris has opened a season 4-0 in its 32-year history.”

Running back Aaron Berry ran for 121 yards and three touchdowns on sixteen carries.

The Perris Panthers faced another 3-0 team in the San Bernardino Cardinals.

There were 34 penalties called on the two teams, 19 in the first half alone.

San Bernardino scored first on a fouryard run, thirty seconds into the second quarter, following a partially blocked punt at the end of the opening quarter.

Mid-quarter, Perris put together a 13-play penalty-free drive that covered 99-yards; Aaron Berry went seven yards on a sweep play to tie the game 7-7 with 1:13 left in the half. Berry’s fake punt and 21-yard run up the middle was key to keeping the drive alive.

Perris’ ensuing squibb kick was recovered by Israel Campbell at the Cardinals’ 34-yard line. Six plays later, Manuel evaded four tacklers and passed on the run to hit sophomore TJ Griffin in the coffin corner of the end zone to give the Panthers a 14-7 advantage going into the locker room.

The Cardinals’ opening drive of the second half was cut short when backup QB Demondre King was intercepted at the 19-yard line. Manuel engineered a 21-play drive that ate up seven minutes and 17 seconds off the clock before Aaron Berry plowed two yards into the end zone to give the Panthers a 21-7 lead.

Berry scored again to cap off an eight-play drive: Perris led 28-7 with 9:14 left. King then hit wide receiver Jared Martinez on a deep post and 63yard score to make the score 28-13.

“They’re a tough team, a wellcoached team and shut down our outside run game,” said Dowdy, “I’d like to give a ‘shout out’ to Coach Schoenfelder whose dad is not doing so well with cancer; we won this game for him.”

Perris (4-0) will host rival Banning Broncos (1-3) who are coming off a 15-0 loss to Beaumont. Perris should enter league season undefeated.

When Palm Springs High School played at Murrieta Mesa High School Friday night, September 19, 2014, the game had a feel of an evenly ranked boxing match.

Not the cheap shot/ugly streetbrawl variety, but of the strategic, timely, offensive/defensive/counter variety with massive momentum swings.

Both teams utilized stiff jabs, timely body shots, and enough defense to keep it close. At the end, it was Murrieta Mesa that had their arms raised up singing their fight song to an enthusiastic homecoming crowd with a thrilling 31-27 victory.

The Rams opened the scoring with a 58-yard, opening drive, capped with a nineteen yard crossing reception and run by senior wide receiver Joseph Pinkava from junior quarter back Peyton Uhl. Palm Springs answered right back with a 50-yard quick hitter when junior quarter back William Olvera snapped a screen pass to junior wide receiver Taylor Hawkins. Hawkins slashed down the right sideline and into the end zone for the score.

After the Indians forced a threeand-out punt, they took over on their own 43-yard line. The drive was going well, until a 35-yard touchdown screen pass to Riley Hagar was called

back due to an illegal block penalty against the Indians.

On the next play, Ram’s senior defensive end Marquette Fisher deflected a pass to the flats high into the air and junior linebacker Blake Johnson ran up and picked the ball out of the air and darted 74 yards for a pick-six touchdown for Mesa. The first quarter ended 14-7 Rams.

The first play of the second quarter was a punt by the Indians and the Rams regained possession at their own 31-yard line. The brief 4-play drive was stalled due to a 10-yard sack by senior defensive end/wide receiver Riley Hagar. The sack was just the beginning for Hagar. The ensuing 11-play, 82 yard, well-orchestrated, drive was finished with a touchdown reception by Hagar where Montano’s PAT tied the game at 14.

The Rams answered quickly with an 11-play drive of their own, culminating with a booming 53-yard field goal by junior kicker Mateo Thompson (his second 53 yarder of the year.)

Murrieta Mesa’s defense held the Indians to a three-and-out punt, and took over at their own 38 yard line with less than three minutes left. Four plays later Uhl found a streaking junior wide receiver Austin Salcedo for a 47-yard bomb. After Thompson’s PAT the Rams led 24-14 going into the half.

Third Annual “Nurse Educator with the Nurse’s Touch” award recipients announced LEAWOOD, KANSAS - There once was a class of newly graduated nurses with special gifts. They anticipated patients’ needs before they asked, put worried parents at ease, painlessly started IVs and patiently answered countless questions from an overwhelmed patient. They were highly respected

by their co-workers, managers and patients. They all had what some call “the nurse’s touch.”

They did not learn these skills in a textbook or a PowerPoint presentation. They learned them from an exceptional nurse educator. An educator like Raelene Brooks, director of nursing at Mt. San Jacinto College.

Brooks was recently recognized

by ATI Nursing Education as one of four “Nurse Educators with the Nurse’s Touch,” an award that recognizes nurse educators who excel at preparing their students for the full spectrum of challenges that await them in practice.

In a sea of nominations, Brooks impressed the judges with her integration of professional and interpersonal skills into her nursing practice and the education of students. These skills include

teaching nursing students how to stay healthy, manage work-related stress, act as a patient advocate, convey professional behaviors and attitudes, use nursing informatics and technology, and function as a leader of the healthcare team.

Brooks teaches these concepts by making herself an example. According to her nominator, “Brooks is a strong, effective professional nurse leader in the local, state and national nursing arena. She subscribes to a model of servant leadership which serves the needs of others, is grounded in ethical and moral commitment and reflects her standards of personal and professional integrity. In her roles as teacher, director and student she beautifully and humbly reflects professional and effective nursing.”

Brooks is credited as becoming

a “transformational leader who will enrich our discipline and our practice” through her teaching.

To honor her commitment to incorporating professionalism and interpersonal skills into her curriculum, Brooks will receive Nurse’s Touch™ for one year.

Nurse’s Touch is a unique product that uses video simulation to teach professional and interpersonal skills.

Brooks also receives a complimentary registration for the 2015 ATI National Nurse Educator Summit in San Diego, California. The Summit is a four day professional development conference featuring hundreds of nurse educators from across the country.

She will receive free registration, room and board, and a $500 travel voucher.

“Nurses require a special set

of skills to provide safe, quality nursing care, and this includes interpersonal skills like communication, professionalism, and leadership,” said Sheryl Sommer, vice president of Faculty and Institution Services at ATI Nursing Education. “Nursing programs have limited time and resources which mean these curriculum areas are not always a top priority in the classroom” “We want to raise awareness of this need and celebrate educators who incorporate professional and interpersonal skills into their teaching to help develop future nurses so they are prepared for the on-the-job demands and are positioned to lead within healthcare teams,” Sommer said. “Thank you, Raelene Brooks. You exemplify what it means to have “the nurse’s touch.”

Education

Local residents complete military training Montes graduates from leadership development course Jesus Montes, an Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) cadet at California State University - Fullerton, has graduated from the Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC) at Fort Knox, Ky. The 29 days of training provide the best possible professional training and evaluation for all cadets in the aspects of military life, administration and logistical support. Although continued military training and leadership development is included in the curriculum, the primary focus of the course is to develop and evaluate each cadet’s officer potential by exercising the cadet’s intelligence, common sense, ingenuity and physical stamina. The cadet command assesses each cadet’s performance and progress in officer traits, qualities and professionalism while attending the course.

Cadets usually attend LDAC between their junior and senior years of college, and they must complete the course to qualify for commissioning. Upon successful completion of the course, the ROTC program, and graduation from college, cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army, Army National Guard, or Army Reserve.

An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness.

The capstone event of boot camp is Battle Stations. This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. Battle Stations is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of honor, courage and commitment. Its distinctly ‘Navy’ flavor was designed

to take into account what it means to be a sailor.

Coles is a 2012 graduate of Great Oak High School in Temecula.

Barons Market selects Murrieta for its sixth location

Family-owned market opening third Inland Empire store in spring 2015 SAN DIEGO – Barons Market, a local all-natural grocery store, announced plans to open its sixth location this spring at 40545 California Oaks Road in Murrieta, formerly a Ralph’s.

The 19,000 square-foot Murrieta location will join the other two popular Riverside County stores in Temecula and Wildomar. This news comes on the heels of the grand opening of Barons’ fifth location in Alpine earlier this month.

“Our Temecula and Wildomar staff frequently hear requests for a more convenient location in Mur-

rieta,” Marketing Manager Rachel Shemirani said. “Our customers aren’t asking for just any store – they want another family-owned, all-natural store that sells simply good food at simply good prices.

We’re happy to oblige.”

The newest location will feature Barons Market iconic qualities such as: • Terrific selection of organic, natural and specialty foods.

• Collaboration with local farms to bring customers the best quality

and freshest produce.

• Products cost 20 – 25 percent less than traditional supermarkets.

No gimmicks, no sales, and no club cards. Just everyday low prices.

• Hot soup bar, fresh salad bar and antipasto bar.

• The selection of over 500 glutenfree items is centralized in one location of the store so glutensensitive customers can easily find them.

• A go-to craft-beer extraordinaire, with over 400 microbrews.

• Through store design and product

selection, Barons has created a 15-minute shopping selection for busy customers.

For its sixth location, Barons rehired Interior Designer Julie Dugas to transform the space and bring the brand alive in Murrieta as she has done in the five existing Barons Markets in Point Loma, Rancho Bernardo, Temecula, Wildomar and most recently, Alpine.

With the new location, Barons plans to bring approximately 40 local jobs to the community. It plans to prioritize hiring locally

from Murrieta.

“Barons Market is an exceptional market which features a full range of natural and local products. It’s a perfect fit for our community,” Murrieta Mayor Alan Long said.

“We are very pleased to have been able to work closely in cooperation with Barons and the property owner to actively encourage and facilitate the establishment of Barons in Murrieta.”

For more information on Barons and the new store, please visit www.baronsmarket.com or follow the market on Facebook.
