Temecula Valley Pop Warner team wins Pee Wee Division Championship Michelle Mears-Gerst Writer The Pop Warner Division Three Championships were held last weekend at Orange Glen High School in Escondido between Temecula Valley Pop Warner’s Mighty Bruins and La Costa Canyon from Carlsbad. These two teams are rivals with very intense emotions from both sides due to Temecula Valley losing to the Fighting Mavericks in week 4 during the regular season.

The defense for the Mighty Bruins was unstoppable with the power of the defensive line making big-time plays with blocked kicks and recovered fumbles throughout the game.

The Championship game was a nail-biter and was neck and neck until the final quarter when the Mighty Bruins scored two touchdowns to clinch the win. The final score was 18 to 6. The next and final game for the Bruins (7-2) is Nov. 8 at Great Oak High School against the Rialto Aztecs.

Menifee Councilman Fuhrman sued for wrongful termination and labor code violations Michelle Mears-Gerst Writer A lawsuit was filed last week in Riverside Superior Court against Thomas Fuhrman, owner of the Wooden Nickel Ranch in Menifee.

The lawsuit was initiated by former alleged employee Roxann Thompson for wrongful termination and labor code violations. The case was filed Oct. 27 in the Southwest Justice Center in Murrieta by the Law Offices of Jon A. Dieringer based out of Huntington Beach.

The lawsuit lists a number of alleged labor law violations including, failure to pay minimum wage earnings, failure to pay overtime earned, restitution and injunctive relief for the violation of the unfair competition code under Business and Professions Code, and failure to provide paystubs, to name a few.

The lawsuit also alleges Fuhrman wrongfully terminated Thompson in violation of public policy for opposing unlawful wage and labor code violations.

Fuhrman, who is also a Councilman with the City of Menifee, was arrested on Oct. 23 by the Riverside County District Attorney’s Office

“It was odd when one of my political adversaries, a person known to be a mudslinger, just happened to be there to take the photo.”

Fuhrman said there was no need to have a public arrest, “The DA contacted me after a council meeting on Oct. 15. By the end of evening, I am in complete pain and need to take medication. I couldn’t meet with the investigator at that moment but gave him two dates, Oct. 29 or Nov. 6, and I went home.” Fuhrman said the next time he heard from the investigators was when he was arrested.

Fuhrman, 70, was seriously injured during a fall at his ranch in July.

“Charges have been made. In America we are innocent until proven guilty,” said Fuhrman.

How to Sell High: Avoid these Three Mistakes When Selling Your Home Southwest Riverside County When you decide to sell your home, setting your asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Depending on how a buyer is made aware of your home, price is often the first thing he or she sees, and many homes are discarded by prospective buyers as not being in the appropriate price range before they’re even given a chance of showing.

Your asking price is often your home’s “first impression”, and if you want to realize the most money you can for your home, it’s imperative that you make a good first impression.

This is not as easy as it sounds, and pricing strategy should not be taken lightly. Pricing too high can be as costly to a homeseller as pricing too low. Taking a look at what homes in your neighborhood have sold for is only a small part

of the process, and on it’s own is not nearly enough to help you make the best decision. A recently study, which compiles 10 years of industry research, has resulted in a new special report entitled “Homesellers: How to Get the Price You Want( and Need)”. This report will help you understand pricing strategy from three different angles. When taken together, this information will help you price your home to not only sell, but sell for the price you want.

breast cancer awareness T-shirts at community fundraisers and even a picture from a so-called chemotherapy treatment (center?).

According to the Murrieta police department, her cancer story is a fraud.

Various posts by others on her Facebook page now claim that Lagman also received gifts, including a free spray tan, a makeover and a photo shoot. A page was established for her on the website GoFundMe and fundraisers were held in Temecula and Murrieta to

help raise money for her treatment costs.

A resident of Rubidoux now, Lagman told authorities that even though she had been questioned by police several months ago, she was unaware that criminal charges had been filed against her. She was charged October 21, 2014 with felony theft by false pretenses. Losses are estimated around $3,000.

Riverside County court records show that she is due in court for arraignment December 2.

Ex-cop who forced prostitutes to provide sex sentenced A former Inland Empire police officer who used his authority to compel prostitutes to provide him with sexual favors was sentenced today to 25 years in federal prison.

Jose Jesus Perez, 47, of Menifee was convicted in May of two felony counts and one misdemeanor count of deprivation of rights under color of law, as well as sentence-enhancing allegations that the offenses involved aggravated sexual abuse, kidnapping and great bodily injury.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office had requested that Perez receive a 32-year sentence, plus five years probation, while the defendant asked U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips to impose a five-year prison term.

Phillips chose the upper end of the range based on the serious nature of the offenses.

In its pre-sentencing memorandum, the prosecution stressed that Perez “intimately violated two women by coercing them to perform oral sex, to have intercourse with him, or both.”

“He accomplished this by abusing his authority as a police officer and the public trust placed in him,” according to the brief. “He targeted

women who were especially vulnerable to police coercion -- prostitutes who believed that they could easily be arrested and that their word would not be believed over that of a police officer.”

Defense attorney John Aquilina argued in his brief that “the punishment Mr. Perez has already brought upon himself, his family and his friends by his overwhelming sexual desires will never be alleviated.”

“Mr. Perez will not return to his former criminality,” the attorney wrote. “He will no longer occupy a position of trust, power or entitlement. He now recognizes his sexual problems and that he must address these problems, and he will need to do so in order to maintain his family.”

According to court papers, the defendant compelled three prostitutes to perform sex acts while he was on duty with the San Bernardino Police Department. Perez was fired from the agency in December 2012, and about eight months later, was indicted by a federal grand jury.

Prosecutors said that in April 2011, Perez forced a woman, whose identity was withheld, to perform

oral sex on him while he groped her. The assault happened in the defendant’s patrol car, while Perez was in uniform and armed, according to the indictment.

A second prostitute, whose identity also was not released, alleged that she had several encounters with the defendant in 2011. According to court papers, the thenpoliceman met the victim at a motel and demanded that the woman have sex, emphasizing that he would make her life difficult otherwise.

She complied.

Another woman told investigators that the defendant repeatedly harassed her while he was on duty, insisting that she have intercourse with him.

“The three women each testified that they feared repercussions if they did not comply with Perez’s demands,” according to a U.S. Attorney’s Office statement.

Perez transferred to the San Bernardino Police Department in 2008, following an 11-year career with the Los Angeles Police Department.

The FBI and SBPD jointly investigated the case.

DA’s office files felony charges against former Murrieta Mayor Alan Long Michelle Mears-Gerst Special to the Valley News The Riverside County District Attorney’s Office filed a felony driving under the influence charge against the former mayor of Murrieta related to a crash he was involved in that injured four teenage girls.

Alan William Long, age 44 of Murrieta, has been charged with one count of driving under the influence of alcohol causing bodily injury (Vehicle Code section 23153 (a)).

Four sentencing enhancements to that count have also been alleged – one for each victim of the crash.

They are one allegation of causing great bodily injury and three allegations of causing bodily injury.

Long is scheduled to be arraigned at the Southwest Justice Center in Murrieta on Dec. 11, 2014.

At about 8:15 p.m. on Oct. 16, 2014, Murrieta police were called to the intersection of Jefferson Ave. and Lily Ave. regarding a vehicle crash with injuries. Four girls, ages 14-17, were injured after the vehicle they were in was struck from behind by a pickup driven by Long, who was arrested at the scene by Murrieta police officers.

The Murrieta Police Department

submitted its investigation into the crash to the DA’s Office, which has now reviewed the case and filed the above listed charge and allegations.

The investigation revealed that Long’s blood alcohol content the night of the injury crash was 0.08 percent, which is the limit California law presumes a driver to be impaired.

The case is being prosecuted

by Deputy District Attorney Chris Bouffard who, through a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, prosecutes DUI-related vehicular homicides and DUI-related vehicle crashes that cause injury.

of Supervisors without comment received and filed a 76-page report on the status of county agencies in the first quarter of 2014-15.

Topping the list of potential budgetary challenges was the $60 million in red ink expected to end up on public safety departments’ books by June.

County Executive Officer Jay Orr wrote in an introduction to the report that he was ``cautiously optimistic’’ about economic conditions overall but noted that “future policy actions may be required to address certain ... funding issues’’ plaguing the departments.

“I recommend continuing to monitor those budget units and deferring action to address those matters until later in the fiscal year,” Orr said.

The board appeared to agree.

According to the Executive Office, the sheriff’s department is staring at a $46 million deficit, mostly a result of union-negotiated salary and benefits increases for sworn personnel. The shortfall compares to a $39 million projected deficit during the first quarter of 2013-14. That was whittled down to around $10 million by last May. Along with existing personnel expenses, Sheriff Stan Sniff is contending with growing costs associ-

Outgoing DA Paul Zellerbach told the board in September that salary and benefits increases negotiated under a four-year collective bargaining agreement with the Riverside County Deputy District Attorneys Association were contributing to budget overruns.

Zellerbach also complained about being shorted Proposition 172 public safety sales tax revenue and urged the board to re-evaluate the current allocation formula to ensure the DA’s office received an adequate distribution of funds.

The DA.’s office relies on the county general fund to cover the largest chunk of its yearly outlays.

According to the budget report, the fire department ended the last fiscal year with a shortfall and is on track to end the current one about $4.6 million in the red. Higher labor costs comprised the biggest portion of the overage. However, fire station maintenance and repairs were also contributing factors, county officials said.

The Department of Probation reported a roughly $215,000 deficit, apparently from increased expenditures tied to the new Youth Treatment and Education Center, which is replacing the 41-year-old Van Horn Youth Center in Riverside.

Unlike the last two years, the

had been cut in half in less than a year. Outgoing hospital administrator Lowell Johnson predicted RCRMC would end the current fiscal year with a balanced budget.

The report indicated the Riverside County Information Technology Department, which has been undergoing a sweeping reorganization since 2012, is projecting a $3.8 million shortfall. That’s in addition to $4 million in uncovered carryover expenses from prior years.

Former RCIT chief Kevin Crawford left the department in August.

County officials said most other agencies are operating within budget and should end 2014-15 on target.

According to the report, in the last quarter, sales tax receipts were up by nearly 7 percent in unincorporated communities compared to a year ago, while the number of new residential building permits had dropped close to 50 percent.

Officials noted that the state and national economies continue to show signs of strengthening, buoying the county’s prospects for growth.

The report stated the county has about $24 million in discretionary cash on hand and just over $200 million in designated reserves.

Local Temecula icon tells of area’s growth and its coming of age Tim O’Leary Valley News staff Popular culture plucks a fortunate few from its midst to be instantly recognized by a single name. There’s Jesus, Cher, Bono, Dylan, Madonna and many more.

In the Temecula Valley, one such figure is simply known as “Joan.”

Joan Sparkman – who has left a deep imprint in education, business and health care circles – was introduced that way prior to her Oct. 27 talk to members of the Temecula Valley Historical Society.

Rebecca Farnbach, an author and a leader of the historical group, noted that Sparkman’s name was typically one of the first that wide-eyed newcomers would hear shortly after they arrived in the area. And it was a name that would multiply in stature as the region grew in spurts and bursts, Farnbach said.

But, as a result of Sparkman’s 45 years in the area, it is not a name that lends itself to a quick introduction.

Sparkman served for 22 years as a Temecula Unified School District trustee and has an elementary campus and three streets named after her. She spent another 14 years on the Mt. San Jacinto Community College governing board.

She alternately served as the president of each of the Temecula and Murrieta chambers of commerce, and she received a lifetime achievement award from the Temecula business group.

She has served as a board member or chairperson of the Temecula Valley Hospital and the Southwest Healthcare System. She has twice been named a Woman of the Year by both the state Senate and the Assembly. She is a founder and past president of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation of the Inland Empire. She was picked by Boy Scouts leaders for the region’s Distinguished Citizens Award in 2000.

In her talk to the 35-member audience, Sparkman detailed her involvement in the community and tracked the area’s transition and trajectory since her 1969 arrival.

That was, she noted, an era of sparse housing, crisscrossing dirt roads, a lone intersection marked by “Stop” signs and local high school students bused to Lake Elsinore for classes. There was an abundance of volunteer spirit, but no city, no wine country, no mall, no chambers of commerce, no Indian casino and few restaurants or other amenities.

“You had the opportunity to get involved in everything and me, being a busybody, I did,” Sparkman recalled.

She took pains in her remarks to avoid sounding “pompous,” and was quick to share credit for such notable regional achievements as unifying the school district, the subsequent breakneck pace of building new campuses, Temecula’s incorporation in December 1989 and a costly, devastating pest infestation that crippled the wine country years several later.

In some ways, numbers attest to the dizzying rate in which all that occurred.

The quarter century since incorporation has seen Temecula’s population surge from 27,099 to 106,300, according to a city report.

Its employment base has nearly quadrupled during that period to about 43,000 jobs today.

The number of traffic signals within the 30-square-mile city steadily climbed from three to 130.

Student enrollment in the sprawling Temecula school district has mushroomed to 28,509 youths scattered across 33 conventional, alternative,

10 Things You Need to Know Before You Hire a Real Estate Agent Not all real estate agents are the same.

continuation and charter school campuses.

Along the way, Sparkman noted, she helped thwart the opening of a landfill near the Pechanga Indian Reservation and helped the region transition from no hospitals to four that are thriving and a fifth on the horizon.

“We’ve done a wonderful job and we’ve all benefited from it,” Sparkman said during her one-hour talk and question-and-answer session talk at the Little Temecula History Center, which is affiliated with the Vail Ranch historic site near the city’s southeast corner.

And it all seemed to unfold in a mere blink of the eye, Sparkman said as she noted the recent passing of her 80th birthday. Will, her husband of 57 years, died four years ago. It was his aviation engineering career that bounced the couple from Torrance to Riverside and finally on to then-tiny Temecula.

“It seems like I just got here,” Sparkman mused at one point.

“We’ve done a lot of things and accomplished much.”

No local government leaders or high-profile educators attended Sparkman’s talk. If some had, they might have squirmed over her candid responses to questions that touched on traffic congestion and the challenges facing the fastgrowing area.

She lamented the growing shortage of public parking in Old Town Temecula, saying that the lack of available spaces has dissuaded her from attending matinee performances at the city’s community theater.

She questioned the achingly long span of time it has taken to construct the final ramp and road improvements at Interstate 15 and Temecula Parkway. She wondered whether county officials are doing enough to protect the wine country from a glut of housing and French Valley Airport from encroaching urban sprawl.

“Once you open that Pandora’s box you’ll never close it,” she warned.

She expressed uncertainty over

whether anyone is peering 50 to 100 years into the future or trying to protect the key historical, cultural and environmental assets that define the area’s character.

“I think we need to think about that long and hard, and I don’t know if anyone is,” Sparkman said.

She also took a swipe at changes in the classroom, most notably the disappearances of art and cursive handwriting classes and the controversial adoption of Common Core standards.

“It bothers me a lot what’s happening in our educational system, including our colleges,” she said.

Yet Sparkman said she is largely pleased with the way the region has matured.

“It’s a great quality of life here,” she said. “It still is. It’s a little more crowded now, but hopefully we have the same values.”

Local RESPONSE from page A-1 majority of pro-developers on city council.

“When development moves in, the rural community is the one who loses their rights. I am the biggest landowner with the largest ranch in the city; if they can knock me down, what about the little people.

If I don’t win what will this say to the smaller landowners,” said Fuhrman.

“The rural community should have a one-acre minimum to have horses, chickens and their own fresh eggs. A place with ducks and dogs to run free,” said Fuhrman.

The business and landowner also sent out a public statement after his arrest, “I cannot fight this battle alone. I need the voters to stand behind me against over-development, excessive government regulations and high fees. Menifee fees are the highest in the county. We must stand together to prevent the erosion of our fundamental rights.”

A civil lawsuit was also filed Oct. 27 in the Southwest Justice Center in Murrieta by the Law Offices

LAWSUIT from page A-1 Sheriff’s Department on Tuesday, Oct 28. Thompson, who also used to live on the ranch as a tenant, allegedly went to the Wooden Nickel Ranch located on the 25600 block of Holland Road to retrieve personal belongings and a scuffle ensued.

Thompson was allegedly being prevented from retrieving her personal property, and her car keys were taken from her resulting in a call to the Sheriff’s Department.

Officer Albert Martinez con-

of Jon A. Dieringer based out of Huntington Beach.

Roxann Thompson, the plaintiff in the civil suit, claims she was employed by Fuhrman and the lawsuit lists a number of alleged labor law violations including, failure to pay minimum wage earnings, failure to pay overtime earned, restitution and injunctive relief for the violation of the unfair competition code under Business and Professions Code, and failure to provide paystubs, to name a few.

The lawsuit also alleges Fuhrman wrongfully terminated Thompson in violation of public policy for opposing unlawful wage and labor code violations.

“This civil suit was also timed to derail my campaign,” said Fuhrman. “She was never my employee.”

Fuhrman said he has Thompson on public record claiming at the March 5, 2014 city council meeting she was not employed by Fuhrman.

Thomas however was a tenant who lived on the Wooden Nickel Ranch located on the 25600 block of Holland Road.

“She gave a letter on March 27 with her intentions to move out in the summer. I have the letter. This is all a political show,” said Fuhrman.

Attorney Dieringer said, “This is not a political chase. We have been preparing to take this case to court for weeks and the timing (with the

DA’s case) is a coincidence.

“All these accusations will prove I am innocent,” said Fuhrman.

It All Starts With The Right Team

firmed there were officers sent out to the ranch at 8:30 p.m. on Oct. 28 for a civil matter which was resolved peacefully.

Fuhrman, 70, also made headlines in July when he fell from a ladder at his ranch and suffered a punctured lung, eight broken ribs and a fractured clavicle, among other injuries.

Fuhrman fell as he was trying to cut down a tree limb that damaged the roof of a barn at his ranch in the rural western region of the city.

Thompson was at the ranch when he fell and called the ambulance.

10,000 people are waiting in line for a cup of coffee --Found something good at Lake Elsinore Costco... CACafe coconut coffee You’ve heard about the electrolyte-rich benefits of coconut water, and the dense nutrients and multiple health benefits of coconut oil. But what about coconut coffee, tea, and cocoa? Southern California’s CACafe makes these delicious antioxi-

dant-rich beverages with premium coconut oil, coconut milk, Arabica coffee, green tea, and cocoa.

Both health affirming and tasty, CACafe Coconut Coffee & Tea can help with weight control, digestive and heart health, and can improve the body’s immune system. Coconut also scavenges free radicals that prematurely age skin, regenerating and stimulating collagen production.

Combined with the antioxidants in coffee, tea, and cocoa themselves, with no artificial flavors or preservatives, CACafe beverages are designed to do more than just taste great. According to Colorado’s non-profit Coconut Research Center, coconut is low alkaline, rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as potassium and manganese.

Cancer survivor Lisa Richmond attests “I began drinking coconut tea in 2004...as a beauty aid. In 2006, I was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer...(but) to everyone’s surprise, my cancerous cells had not metastasized.” Richmond credits CACafe coconut tea with “keeping me strong, before, during, and after my cancer experience. I remain can-

cer-free and CACafe coconut tea plays a major role in my life.” In fact, A.P. John Cancer Institute for Cancer Research has recommended the addition of coconut oils to the diet to reduce free radicals and cancer risk.

For weight loss, too, CACafe can’t be beat.

User Malia Owen lost 12.5 pounds in just three and a half weeks. “I felt an incredible energy boost after the coconut coffee, and also less hungry.”

Owen says she’s experienced less eating and snacking overall since enjoying the beverage daily.

Coconut boosts metabolism and improves thyroid function.

Unlike many foods which contain primarily long-chain fatty acids, coconut contains medium-chain fatty acids quickly burned up by the body, leading to weight loss and significantly lower incidence of heart disease and obesity.

Residents of the Philippines, India, and the Pacific Islands who consume high amounts of coconut coffee and tea in their diets have far fewer cases of heart disease and obesity than those in countries that don't.

So you know they’re healthy, but how do CACafe products taste? The short answer is amazing. Sweet and rich, it’s unnecessary to add creamer or milk.

Delightful, good for you, and tasty - something everyone in the family can enjoy.

And CACafe not only does right by you - the

company donates resources from every product sold to fight world hunger and support sustainable coconut crop development worldwide.

Actor Dustin Hoffman once said “The two basic items necessary to sustain life are sunshine and coconut milk.” Maybe he was onto something.

Made with real coconut, premium coffee, cocoa, and green tea, CACafe's patented products were created to deliciously improve your body’s defenses, heart and digestive health, as well as assisting with weight control.

To find out more, visit www.CACafe.com. To get a free sample, email your mailing address to service@CACafe.com and mention what flavor (coffee, tea, or cocoa) of CACafe's products you would like to sample. One flavor per person, limited time offer only.

Stories from the Moving Wall A new series exploring the stories that touch us all

workers. Each one affects the world around him or her. Each one is what we sometimes lightly call a life.

Some think of the wall as a shrine of death. Not so. It is a tribute not only to those who died in that war but to those whose survived it. As a survivor of that war I cannot stand before the wall without a tremendous grief for those who lost the most precious of gifts. I tremble at the vastness of the names before me and visions of the war flood me. I go to the tables they have set up with the caring people of the wall, and ask about three friends that I left behind in Vietnam when I

left. Not knowing if they were alive or not. All three were not on the wall.

All three had survived. Knowing the circumstances they were under when I left, I was amazed. Then I was jubilant. The wall had brought me a sense of relief and even happiness.

The wall as well as other memorials for our fallen heroes are much, much more than monuments to those who have passed. They are a worldwide tribute to what America is willing to stand for, indeed a declaration to the rest of the world that our men and women and families, our society, our nation stands firm in the belief that freedom is for all.

John Roberts the initiator of the Moving Wall experience in Temecula.

Jodi Thomas Writer Recently the Moving Wall was brought to Temecula through the effort of many local volunteers and was initiated by John Roberts of Manzanita Ranch. Manzanita Ranch is the home of the “One Good Day Project” located in Anza where horses are the therapy for Veterans and active duty military men and women with PostTraumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD).

Roberts was not in the Vietnam Conflict itself and, contrary to previous reports, he was not a Navy Seal.

That mistake was made in one news article and was picked up as his military involvement from then on.

Roberts has been trying to correct this ever since. The truth is Roberts was a “Seabee” in the Navy, which is a construction battalion, where he was a heavy equipment operator.

During its five-day exhibit at Sam Hicks Monument Park, the Moving Wall was visited literally by tens of thousands of people. Each coming for their own reasons — each leaving changed with a new story to tell. It is those stories and the speeches shared during the event that will become the stories in this series. We will also be sharing photos, which tell a story in and of themselves.

“In honor of all of our Veterans, we say thank you for your service.” - The Staff of the Valley News.

If you have a special story to share from your experience visiting the Moving Wall, and you would like us to consider it for this series, please email it and your contact info to editor@myvalleynews.com with the subject, “Stories from the Moving Wall.”

Our first story: Don Alexander from Anza, a veteran of the Vietnam Conflict, shared his feelings on the subject beforehand about the Moving Wall coming to Temecula, “It is great that they are honoring the fallen and making it possible for those who cannot go to Washington D.C. to be able to see the Memorial Wall.” This was Alexander’s first time to view the Wall. Alexander was an E4 in the Army’s 363rd Transportation Unit driving a 5,000 gallon aviation fuel tanker, a high priority target. He was in the 1968 Tet Offensive, and he lived to tell his tale. Launched by the Communists, the Tet Offensive was the largest military operation conducted by either side up to that point in the war.

This is his story shared in his own words of visiting the Moving Wall.

Note: This story was chosen to share first for its heart in honor of Veterans Day. Vietnam Wall - A moving wall

By Don Alexander Early afternoon, the sun was behind a very long black wall. There were names on the wall. Not a few names, not hundreds of names, thousands of names. Are they names?

Or lives? An elderly gentleman hesitantly approaches the wall, his steps

slow and shaking. He slowly scans the wall until he sees a name. Leaning his head against the wall tears fall down his cheeks, his shoulders begin to shake. Two veterans watching the man move a little closer. The old man raises his head, looking at the wall and begins to hit the wall with his fists. Pounding at the wall and crying out. The two veterans slowly and gently stand beside the man and one says, “It won’t bring him back.”

Stand on the overpass of a freeway sometime and watch the cars speed beneath you. Each car has at least one person in it. How long will you have to watch before nearly sixty thousand people have passed under you? Realize that each of the cars holds someone with their own life, their own family and pets and cares and troubles. Their own happiness or sadness. Each one of them shares their life with those around them, be it family, friends or neighbors, fellow

REAL ESTATE / HOME & GARDEN

You might be a first-time home buyer Where to find financing Denyse Wilson Special to the Valley News Surprisingly, the term “first-time home buyer” is not limited to just those who have never purchased a home before. According to the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the definition also applies to a prospective buyer who has not purchased a home in the past three years. This definition expands the number of buyers who can qualify for various financing programs.

The FHA offers assistance to many first-time home buyers to make buying a home more affordable for more people. Some FHA and nonprofit organizations offer programs to assist in home purchases. These programs may provide such benefits as low down payments, assistance with closing costs and low interest rates.

Here are a few programs worth knowing about.

The California Housing Finance Agency (CalHFA) offers both Conventional Loans (CalPLUS Conventional and CalHFA Conventional) as well as Government Insured Loans (CalPLUS FHA, CalHFA FHA, and Cal-EEM

+ Grant Program). The CalPLUS Conventional Loan can be combined with the CalHFA Zero Interest Program for down payment assistance. The Cal-EEM + Grant Program combines an FHA-insured Energy Efficient First Mortgage loan with an additional Cal-EEM grant to make energy-efficient improvements.

CalHFA also has Down Payment Assistance programs: California Homebuyer’s Downpayment Assistance Program (CHDAP) which offers a deferred-payment subordinate loan and Extra Credit Teacher Home Purchase Program (ECTP) designed for educators working in high priority schools in California.

CalHFA also offers other programs and partnerships: Mortgage Credit Certificate Tax Credit Program (MCC); Individual Development Accounts (IDA); HUD Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program; Utility Energy Efficiency & Solar Programs; and Weatherization Assistance Program.

Healthy & Beautiful Gardens Bulbs in the garden 1.

Linda McDonald-Cash Landscape Designer Hello fellow gardeners! Although there are an endless array of topics to choose from, at this particular time of year I thought it would be appropriate to discuss bulbs, as this is the time you will begin to see them for sale at your local garden centers.

I’ve always found bulbs fascinating myself, as when everything else in the garden is starting to “wind down” bulbs begin to do the opposite. Once they are planted in the garden they will begin to put roots down, and then eventually up pops a green stalk/leaves and a beautiful and colorful flower.

I prefer to get the best size and healthiest bulbs I can because I know they will not fail and quite

1. Alliums in bloom. 2. Hyacinths are very fragrant blooms and can be either forced or planted in garden.

3. Amaryllis ‘Aphrodite’. 4. Sun Spot Dahlias are grown from tubers and flower in the summer. 5. The Weston Spanish Courtesy photos Dancer is called a ‘Cactus Dahlia’. 6. Tulips and daffodils in bloom. 7. Potted Gladiolus bulbs.

often, depending on variety, will give me the biggest blooms and sometimes double blooms.

What is a bulb? It’s an underground structure that contains the entire plant, and its food that will emerge in the spring.

Why do we need to fertilize when planting bulbs you ask, if they already have their food source stored in the bulbs? Because they will be needing that to supply themselves for the next season – if you do not fertilize them when planting they may not be able to store their food supply for the following year.

There are true “bulbs”, such as Alliums, Hyacinths, Lilies, Muscari, Narcissus, and Tulips. My favorite of all is the regal Amaryllis, so many varieties and colors to choose from and you can find them soon in pots ready to bloom

by Christmas; just keep watering after the bloom, and then plant out in the garden in a protected area for blooming next year!

There are “rhizomes”, the most familiar one is the Iris, but Cannas, Calla Lilies, and Tuberoses are also rhizomes and can be planted now. Just keep in mind Cannas, Callas, and Tuberoses aren’t hardy.

There are also plants/flowers with “Tuberous roots” that you may see

USDA also provides rental assistance to elderly, disabled, or low-income rural residents in multi-unit complexes (Section 521). There are both property and income eligibility requirements.

California Veterans (CalVet) Home Loans usually have below market interest rates with little or no down payment requirements.

Any veteran purchasing an owner-occupied home in California is

eligible as long as they received an “Honorable Discharge.” There is no prior California residency requirement. There is no limit on the number of times a veteran can apply for and receive a CalVet home loan (as long as they don’t currently have one in the portfolio). CalVet does not have a stated minimum FICO score requirement; many VA lenders do.

income families and assistance depends upon the buyer’s qualifications and the price of the home, up to 20 percent of the purchase price.

EDA also has a Mortgage Credit Certificate that entitle qualified home buyers to reduce the amount of their federal income tax liability in order to qualify more easily for a loan. The tax credit increases the effective income of the buyer in an amount equal to the interest paid during the year on a home mortgage. This is not a “tax deduction” (which is subtracted from adjusted gross income before federal taxes are computed). The unused portion of the tax credit can be carried forward for three years.

Many lenders also have firsttime home buyer programs. For example, Citibank has an exclusive portfolio mortgage program called “HomeRun.” This program is available to returning and first time homebuyers. It is designed to meet the needs of low and moderate-income borrowers or borrowers in low and moderate-income areas. It requires a low down payment of only three percent that can be gifted or obtained through an Approved Community Second mortgage.

Unlike the FHA program it does not require mortgage insurance.

Many of these programs have eligibility requirements and restrictions. Prospective buyers are urged to seek the help of expert real estate professionals experienced in these types of transactions and financing.

Real Estate / Home & Garden BULBS from page B-1 available now, which include daylilies, dahlias, and alstroemerias (Peruvian Lilies). There is another class as well called “Corms” and this group contains Crocus, Freesias, Gladiolas, and Watsonias among others.

It is crucial to plant bulbs at the correct depth for each variety.

A good rule is to dig a hole three times as deep as the bulbs’ greatest diameter. When planting in rows or beds, it is easiest to dig a trench at the correct depth. However, for a more natural clump effect you will need to dig holes with enough space to plant at least 3 bulbs in each.

The roots of bulb plants must have phosphorus to establish themselves. This can be supplied by using bone meal or super-phosphate fertilizer at the deepest level of the hole. Cover the fertilizer with a thin layer of soil and be sure to set the bulbs in an upright position. Then fill in with soil and firm lightly with your hands.

Water thoroughly after planting.

This will probably be enough to carry fall-planted bulbs through all but the driest winters. Bulbs mildew easily and usually will not need more water until they are

well sprouted. Then water regularly until the blooms have faded and foliage has died back.

I really enjoy doing something with bulbs that is called “forcing” – which is basically getting them to bloom BEFORE their normal scheduled time, usually in the house. Paperwhites (Narcissus bulbs) are very easy to do this with – you can even fill a container ¼ full with pebbles, then water almost to the top of the pebbles, set your bulbs on top of the pebbles, then take the entire container and set it someplace dark – like a closet or somewhere it won’t be disturbed while the roots are growing. Check regularly, but in about two months they should be ready to bring out into the light – the bulbs should be sending out “top growth” and this will quickly turn green when given light and then they will bloom.

You can also force hyacinths this way, although you want to find out if the bulbs have been “pre-chilled” or not. If they haven’t, or I’m not sure whether they have been or not, I put them in the refrigerator for a couple months before forcing or potting up. You can also pot up many bulbs in “layers” (deep pot, larger bulbs towards bottom and smaller ones higher up) and if you

have room in the fridge, leave them in there for 2-3 months (keep moist not wet) then move them out into a warmer and lighter area – you will then have a beautiful mini flowering bulb garden to set on a table and delight your friends and family with. I don’t keep them indoors too long though, they love the light outside and the cooler temps will make them last longer.

Hyacinths do good in “hyacinth” forcing vases – or any vase that will support the bulb and allow the water level to barely touch the bottom of the bulb – repeat as above – keep in darkened area until the roots have filled in the water in the bottom of vase – then bring out into light room for top growth.

Bulbs that are forced in water will not bloom again next year, so keep that in mind.

Bulbs need to be allowed to have their top growth gradually die back – and then they will go through another cycle for next year, hopefully multiplying for you. Crocus are great for this, beautiful purple and white, some striped, with dark yellow stamens, look great with Narcissus (daffodils) and muscari.

Tulips need a really cold winter in order to flower, so they can be “iffy” around here, but don’t be dis-

couraged if you really want them, you might try chilling them in the fridge first. Asian lilies are fantastic bloomers and I recommend trying some of them either in the ground or potted. Pots are great because then when the bloom is over and they don’t look so hot, you can just slip them someplace that isn’t noticed until they eventually die back – keep watering though until the end of summer.

One of my all-time favorite bulbs is “Amaryllis”; it’s a huge flowered bulb and you will see them pre-chilled and for sale around Christmas. These have been forced to bloom early, they will normally bloom in spring, like most other bulbs, but buy them whenever you can, and they make nice house plants if given enough light even after the flowers are done. “Apple Blossom” is a beautiful variety that you should be able to get. If you buy the bulbs at the nursery

now, they will undoubtedly bloom in spring, unless you care to take a stab at getting them to bloom early, which entails changing their amount of lighting and temps.

Check online for more information on this if you’re really interested.

Oops – out of room already!

Hope you can get out there and pick up some new and interesting bulb/corm/rhizomes soon and get them planted somewhere so you can enjoy the excitement of seeing their pretty little faces in early spring when not much else is happening out there. As always, please feel free to call or email me with questions, and I am available for consultations for landscape designs. Happy gardening!

What every real estate investor / landlord should know about tenant screening

What a landlord CAN DESCRIMINATE against First, let’s examine what the word DESCRIMINATION really means. Sure, ever since the Civil Rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s the word has taken on a very negative connotation in the American vocabulary. While most dictionaries will first refer to the negative definition, there is also the one that states, “Recognition and understanding of the difference between one thing and another.” Another dictionary says, “the ability to recognize the difference between things that are of good quality and those that are not” and “the ability to understand that one thing is different from another thing.”

So, yes, there are times when a Landlord can (and should) discriminate recognizing that some applicants are a better quality tenant than others.

The key to legally discriminating is to apply the same standard to all applicants, regardless of any of the factors identified in the section above. Let’s look how a good Landlord should discriminate: Financial means While you cannot discriminate against where an applicant’s money comes from, so long as it is legal, you can discriminate based on how much income an applicant can verify.

If your potential tenant isn’t making enough to cover the rent and the rest of his bills, then you ought to be discriminating and finding the right tenant who will live up to their financial obligation each and every month.

References References are important. They should be verified at the time of the application. If possible, references should include family members who will know where the tenant is, in case they skip out on the rent.

Contacting references during the screening process will give you some insight as to the moral fiber of the prospective tenant. Of course, many times a tenant will prep their refer-

for declining an application.

Remember, Federal and State Discrimination Laws are very complex and this short article should not be construed as legal advice, but more of guidance. Any questions you have on a specific scenario should be consulted with your attorney. Every situation is unique and complicated and deserves to be explored with reputable legal representation.

In the end, as a Landlord your responsibility is to your family and your assets that may be a significant

portion of your retirement account.

You cannot afford to put the wrong tenant in your property. A bad tenant can not only cost you in the loss of rent, the legal expenses in the eviction process and the damage that is caused by an uncaring tenant, but the long term may actually go into eroding the value of your property and the surrounding neighborhood that you may never recover from.

Be diligent. Treat all applicants equally. Finally…BE DILIGENT. Call us today and get the infor-

mation you need to make the right decision. The info is free, call now!

Bad habits Sure, we may all have a bad habit or two — but leaving the toilet seat up is not what we’re talking about here. Does the potential tenant smoke? Drink excessively? Cook Meth?

Now is the time to figure these things out. Remember, you have an application, with many intimate details of their life that, if screened properly, will build a good picture of the person who wants to move into your rental property.

The key to remember is that you must treat all applications equally and that means investigate them equally. This is not the time to take shortcuts.

The recent downturn in the economy in general and real estate specifically has certainly created a lot of personal hardships. The silver lining is that many local citizens found themselves in the right place at the right time and were able to capitalize on the situation and become landlords — many without any experience.

It is this unexperienced landlord who may have learned some difficult and expensive lessons when it came to selecting the right tenants — the process known as Tenant Screening.

There are basically two types of errors that landlords must avoid at all expense.

First, a landlord never wants to be accused of violating any Federal Housing Laws. The common denominator of many Federal Housing laws is Discrimination. It is a Federal crime for a landlord to discriminate based on any of the following: • Race • Religion • National Origin • Age (of course there is the exception for designated 55+ senior communities) • Family Status • Physical or Mental Disability • Gender • In addition to the Federal Laws, California has their own laws that further protect our citizens based on: • Marital Status • Sexual Orientation • Source of Income (Welfare is legitimate income. Yes, you can discriminate if you believe the applicant’s income is from an illegal source.)

Not only can you not discriminate based on the above criteria, but you must treat all applicants equally.

This means that you must ask them the same questions and process all applications equally. You cannot ask applicants 1, 2 and 4 one set of questions and then turn around and ask applicant 3 a completely different set of questions. Sure, your application can evolve over time, but it must be used consistently.

This holds true for processing applications. If you have a warm and fuzzy feeling over a particular applicant, you must process their application the same as every other application. If you start calling references from one applicant, you must call references from all of your references.

Remember, everyone is equal in the eyes of the law — and they should be in your eyes too!

ences for positive reviews. It’s best to spend a few minutes on the phone and encourage the references to speak, asking questions like “that’s, interesting…please tell me more about that.”

While you can’t ask any questions pertaining to any of the protected areas of discrimination, you can ask behavior questions and questions pertaining to other parts of the application, such as employment and previous residences.

This is your opportunity to dig and “screen” your tenant applicants — looking for the very best.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL It’s here, the end of the 2014/15 High School Football season has arrived and though we have our clear-cut Champions in the Southwestern and Sunbelt Leagues, two of the South Valley and Ambassador League games will be nailbiters this week in the quest for the ship.

In the Southwestern League the Vista Murrieta Broncos were able to fend off a late attack by Chaparral last week to claim their status as league champs with one game to go. Great Oak toppled over the Rams and Temecula Valley made things interesting by taking out the Nighthawks. The Broncos and the Wolfpack are set to move on in the post season, but things are now a bit more interesting in the fight for third, as the top three teams from each league go to the payoffs. Chaparral, with a win over the Rams could move into a threeway tie in third place if Great Oak beats Murrieta Valley and if Vista Murrieta can control Temecula Valley and finish off their season undefeated for the sixth season in a row. All three teams would be 2-3 in league and a coin flip will have to decide the fate of all three teams if this situation arises, but it never hurts to look for an upset somewhere in the Valley this week.

In the Sunbelt League the Heri-

and could claim the Ambassador League Championship with a win over Ontario this week.

In the South Valley League, the championship comes down to what could be a knock-down, drag-out fight between two undefeated heavyweight contenders, Rancho Christian and Calvary Murrieta.

Expect a heated game between Hamilton and CMI as well since a win sends either team into the post season right behind Nuview Bridge.

Predictions for Week 4 from the Valley News sports department were close, but the top 5 Prep Pigskin Pick’em Challenge contest winners got the best of us and are listed as follows: 1. J10sBrother85 - (8-2) 2. RamsintheZONE - (8-2) 3. GeologistManChild - (8-2) 4. CountVonSheep - (7-3) 5. Pedro - (7-3) With the end of the regular season here, next week we will announce our overall winners where a new iPhone 6 and a free round of golf, with lunch at Journey at Pechanga are up for grabs. Right now, the top 5 looks like this: 1. GeologistManChild - (28-12-1) 2. Mikey C. - (26-14-1) 3. PumaNation - (24-16-1) 4. JimDunnMenifee - (22-18-1) 5. DavidTripedup - (22-18-1)

for a Southwestern League battle, which will be played at Great Oak High School, on Thursday, Nov. 6.

Temecula Valley will face a Broncos squad coming off a 35-22 league win over Chaparral.

Broncos fend off late attack by Pumas, win 35-22 Vista Murrieta secures 6th straight League Championship JP Raineri Sports/Multimedia Editor

knows success all too well, has led his past five teams to undefeated league season championship titles and unless an unsuspecting loss comes their way soon, this year the Broncos are looking at doing it again.

The Pumas received the opening kickoff and looked great out of the gate, successfully gaining yardage, eating up first down after first down, but then the horror kicked in when a fumble in Vista’s territory would give the Bronco Bleacher Creatures reason to get even more excited as Vista Murrieta would recover the ball and drive down the field to score on a 3-yard rushing touchdown by QB Kyle Williams.

Going into the second quarter it would be 7-0 Vista Murrieta.

Twas the night before ‘All Hallows Eve’ and the Chaparral Pumas were certainly looking to put a scare into the home crowd at Bronco Stadium on Thursday, October, 30.

Vista Murrieta last lost to Chaparral in a league game in 2008, but have always had a heated league rivalry since losing to the Pumas in the CIF Championships in 2009, while Chaparral was under the direction of coach Tom Leach.

Current head coach, Ryan Tukua was a part of that coaching staff and took the reins of the successful program in 2011. Bronco head coach, Coley Candaele, who also

Chaparral could not put much together on offense as the clock ticked down in the first half and the Broncos took full advantage, giving themselves some breathing room as Williams would score his second touchdown of the game on a 12-yard QB keeper, while senior Tito Feliciano would find his way into the end zone as well, with just under 4 minutes to go in the second quarter. The touchdown would put Vista Murrieta up by three scores.

Chaparral’s offense had a bit of a spark with time running out when they managed to get within a few short yards of scoring, but a big stop on a run up the middle would send the game into halftime with a 21-0 score.

Out of halftime, Chaparral would kick off to the Broncos, and it would take one play on offense to almost put the game out of reach when senior RB/DB, Seth Acda, took the ball to the outside and ran 62 yards for a Bronco touchdown.

A missed point after touchdown attempt would make the score 27-0 within minutes of the start of the second half.

The Puma’s would need to really turn things around for their offense to even compete and a 39-yard pass from QB Chris Hall to TE Alex Argent would be the spark they were looking for. As the Puma’s got within striking distance, the nightmare on Bronco street showed back up when Hall would fumble the ball again on the 2-yard line, taking the spirits of the night with them, or so

Chaparral QB Chris Hall gets a pass off despite getting pressured by Vista Murrieta’s Kevin Atkins in last week’s 35-22 loss to the Broncos.

it seemed until a pumped up Chaparral defense took the field and held the Broncos to only one first down, forcing a punt.

Chris Hall picked back up where he left off and led the charge again, in the air and on the ground getting the Puma’s close to the end zone yet again, but it would be junior, Alex Aviles, who would plow his way in for the score, putting Chaparral on the board for the first time all night. Senior Darrien Molten would score for the Puma’s on a two-point conversion attempt, and Chaparral finally started to show some signs of life with the score now 27-8.

A recharged Puma crowd was back in the game and an onside kick attempt would get a spooky Chaparral bounce, right into the hands of Austin Smith on their own 47-yard line. The Puma offense went back to work and would give room to Darrien Molten who would find the end zone again, this time with a 30-yard rushing touchdown.

After a Cameron Mettler successful point after attempt, the Pumas now only trailed 27-15 with a minute to go in the third quarter.

Chaparral’s defense stepped up big-time on the Bronco’s next possession, forcing a punt which went out of bounds, giving the Puma’s great field position. Some big runs

by Ray Riley and a huge catch

by Alex Argent would lead to an Isaiah hall touchdown run, adding more horror to the night for Vista Murrieta as the Broncos had now given up 22 unanswered points after another successful Mettler point

after touchdown kick.

Tukua would call for his second onside kick of the night and just as the ball seemed to be on its way into the hands of a Chaparral special teams player, a home field bounce instead put the ball into the hands of Seth Acda, who would drop and let his offense go to work. A very calm Kyle Williams went to work indeed, rushing for a 44-yard touchdown on a QB keeper, putting the nail in the coffin for the Puma’s when he also ran in a two-point conversion with just under two minutes left in the game.

Chaparral still had some fight, but Vista Murrieta prevailed in the end, securing their bid as League Champions for the sixth straight year with a 35-22 victory over the Pumas who now find themselves in a unique position with just one week to go.

Other games that took place on Thursday, Oct. 30 also saw Temecula Valley beat Murrieta Valley 38-10 while Great Oak beat Mesa 42-17, putting the Wolfpack in second place, making it a two way tie for third place, with Chaparral in fourth place and Murrieta Mesa alone at the bottom.

The final week in the regular season could be interesting if Great Oak can hold off Murrieta Valley and if Vista beats Temecula Valley and Chaparral pulls out a win, that 3rd seed for a playoff bid could make for an interesting conversation around the water coolers here in the valley. Happy Halloween everyone!

Lions upset undefeated Eagles 23-14

One win away from Ambassador League Championship

By JP Saar The Linfield Christian Lions jumped out to an early 17-0 lead against the Arrowhead Christian Academy Eagles and the Lions rode this lead the rest of the game.

Fumbles and penalties gave the Eagles several red-zone attempts; however, the ferocious Lions’ defense made key stops. Linfield left victorious, upsetting the Ambassador League leader 23-14. The Eagles had been averaging 41.8

points per game.

Lions’ kicker Michael Brown led off the scoring with a 47-yard field goal. Two minutes later, QB Lorenzo Burns scored on a 40-yard run to give Linfield a 10-0 lead over the previously undefeated Eagles.

Burns rushed for 92 yards on nine carries.

Early in the second quarter, running back Zac Archer scored on a 4-yard run to extend the Lions’ lead to 17-0. Archer carried 21 times for 67 yards.

Linfield kicker Michael Brown boots a 46-yard field goal to help stake the Lions to an early 17-0 lead against previously unbeaten Arrowhead Christian Academy.

-- halfway through the third quarter extended the Lions’ lead to 23-14.

The Lions’ defense – on an interception by safety John Henry -- was able to stop a final Eagles’ attack in the red zone.

Linfield QB Connor Waite went 7-for-14 throwing for 88 yards.

Burns threw for an additional 104 yards completing 6 of his 8 passes.

On the defensive side for the Lions, Safety/linebacker Justin Salazar had 13 tackles and 4 sacks leading the defense. Linebacker Jacob Miller and defensive end

Jared Collom each added 11 tackles and a sack, linebacker Greg Holt had 10 tackles. Safety John Henry had 3 tackles and the game-sealing interception.

The Lions move to 5-4 (3-1 in league), and control their own destiny. With a win next week against Ontario Christian (3-6, 2-2), the Lions will be Ambassador League Champions. Arrowhead moves to 8-1 (3-1 in league) and will play Western Christian (2-7, 1-3) next week.

Heritage wins fifth straight City Championship 35-21 over Paloma Valley

By Paul Bandong Staff Writer The Heritage Patriots won their fifth straight Menifee City Championship with a 35-21 win over the Paloma Valley Wildcats. Patriots’ running back Isaiah Morrow rushed for five TDs in the game. The Patriots are now 9-0 at all three levels (frosh, JV and Varsity). The Varsity team is on a 19-game win streak (24-0 in Sunbelt League play) and guaranteed their fifth straight Sunbelt League championship.

“This win means we won league here,” said Patriots head coach Kraig Broach, “especially against a great opponent like Paloma Valley.

I was very happy with how hard our kids played and persevered.”

It was a back and forth half as the teams traded scores. Morrow scored first on a 60-yard run on Heritage’s very first offensive play of the game. Heritage’s Jacob Marquez recovered a fumble of a Paloma Valley pass at the four-yard line, but the Paloma Valley defense held tough, forcing a turnover-ondowns at the one-yard line.

Wildcats’ QB Raine Pohaku Kaheaku-Paiva then engineered a 14-play 99-yard drive, scoring on a 7-yard QB keeper to tie the game at 7-7.

Heritage QB Brett Virgil took over at the 46 with 2:21 left in the opening period. Three plays later, he hit Aleva Hifo on a 31-yard score to retake the lead, 14-7.

Paloma Valley answered with a 12-play 80-yard drive, as Pohaku connected with Elliott Smith on a rollout left pass to the front pylon -- tie game 14-14 with eight minutes left.

Virgil then drove the Patriots down the field 80 yards in ten plays, carrying the ball three times himself for 59 of those yards. Morrow scored on a 1-yard dive to put the Patriots up 21-14.

The Wildcats drove 74 yards with Pohaku scoring as time ex-

pired in the half to tie the game at 21-all.

Both defenses came out of the locker room inspired and neither offense could score. Heritage did drive the length of the field, but was unable to capitalize as kicker Tyler Baca missed a 17-yard field goal attempt.

Paloma Valley opened the final period with a punt and Heritage took over at the 47. A 35-yard pass from Virgil to Hifo set Morrow up for a 2-yard TD dive, to give the

A Linfield fumble at midfield was picked up by the Eagles’ Alex Ritz for a 63-yard scoop-andscore to put Western Christian on the scoreboard.

Patriots a 28-21 lead.

A touchback gave the Wildcats the ball on their own 20. Pohaku kept the ball twice getting the team to midfield. Khayrii Joyner fumbled on a read-option and Heritage’s Andreas Henry recovered the ball with just under eight minutes left in the game. This turned out to be the momentum changing moment in the game.

Virgil kept the ball three times (35 yards) in seven plays; Morrow completed the seven-play 48-yard drive with a 1-yard power dive to extend the Patriots’ lead to 35-21.

Morrow would score again – for the third time in the quarter and the fifth time in the game – on a 15yard handoff up the middle.

“I just did my job,” said Morrow.

“We executed our plays and the rest took care of itself.”

“All the way through the first quarter, it was one of those games ‘Who’s going to make the first mistake?’” said Paloma Valley head coach Bert Esposito. “It happened to be us and the balloon burst. We’ll get over the disappointment; we have a dogfight next week against Temescal.” The Wildcats celebrate senior night next week as they host the Titans (2-2) who lost 14-7 to Elsinore.

Heritage will finish league play against 0-4 Lakeside who lost 40-6 to Perris.

Wolfpack sends Rams running, win 42-17 Great Oak looks to finish #2 for the first time Bryce Martin Intern Reporter Temecula’s Great Oak Wolfpack sent the Murrieta Mesa Rams running with a 42-17 win at Ram Stadium on Halloween Eve, Thursday, Oct. 30. This year’s team now has the best win record (7-2, 3-1) in the school’s history.

Brandon Presley added four touchdowns in only six catches; he has 14 touchdown catches in nine games. Tonight’s 165 yards bring him 16 yards closer to a 1000-yard season.

Rams’ spirits were high as their 4-3 defense shut down the Wolfpack’s opening drive. Sophomore cornerback Kolin Di Fiore blocked

Tanner Kuljian’s field goal attempt.

The first quarter ended scoreless.

The Rams completed an 85yard drive with star running back McKinley Ross (13 carries for 74 yards) tying the game on an 11-yard run with only 44 seconds elapsed in the second quarter.

The Wolfpack responded with a pressing drive on the back of junior Demetric Felton (22 carries for 179 yards). Despite two red-zone penalties against the Wolfpack, QB Laquan Williams (14-of-22 for 251 yards, 4 TDs) was able to connect with Presley for the first Great Oak score to tie the game.

Williams and Presley would go on to be the dynamic duo of the night, connecting on four touch-

Great Oak Quarterback Laquan Williams (1), pictured here scrambling out of the pocket behind the block of senior guard, Jimmy Vreeland (54), threw for 251 yards and 4 touchdowns in the 42-17 victory over Murrieta Mesa.

down passes.

Mesa’s Bryan Phan thrilled the home crowd catching a deflected Peyton Uhl pass for a 13-yard score that put Mesa ahead. Uhl ended up with 151 yards on 14-for-26 passing.

Felton returned the ensuing kickoff 99 yards to tie the game up at 14. Williams hit Presley for a 35-yard score to send the teams into the locker room with Great Oak on top 21-14. Rams’ head coach Justin Schaeffer would say later, “The kickoff return was very deflating.”

The halftime show included a performance by the Rams’ Drama

Team dancing to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” while clad in zombielike gear. The dance of the dead was a pre-Halloween hit to those in the stands. The Murrieta Mesa varsity cheer squad also presented a cheer and dance with MVUSD elementary school children, “The Little Rams.”

The Rams’ kicker, Mateo Thompson, capped off a six and a half minute drive with a 46-yard field goal to close the gap to 21-17.

It was all Great Oak after that, as Williams hit Presley on touchdown throws of 45 yards and 60 yards.

Williams’ leap into the end zone

at the end of a 19-yard run was the final score of the game. “It hurt a little bit,” admitted the smiling quarterback, “but I ultimately have to give thanks to my blockers.”

Great Oak closes regular season play at home against Murrieta Valley (2-2) with a good chance of finishing second in the Southwestern League, another first for the program. Murrieta Valley lost to Temecula Valley, 38-10.

Murrieta Mesa (0-4) will face Chaparral (1-3) who battled but lost to league leader Vista Murrieta 35-22.

Local coach honored for ‘Inspiring Greatness’ Marriott and Football USA provide grant

Paul Bandong Staff Writer Courtyard by Marriott has teamed up with independent nonprofit Football USA to honor individuals who contribute to youth success in its “Inspiring Greatness” recognition program. George Escalante, who has been coaching boys and girls in the Temecula Valley for 20 years and with Temecula Valley Pop Warner League for five years, was selected as a recipient of the Courtyard Inspiring Greatness Award.

I have coached football, soccer, baseball, volleyball, and softball for 20 years,” said Escalante. “I would have never imagined receiving or

even being considered for such honors. I am currently serving as an executive board member for the National Football Foundation Riverside Chapter and I know of numerous coaches that would be just as deserving of this award.”

Escalante started coaching in 1994 and continues to empower hundreds of youth athletes each year to learn the principles of sportsmanship, teamwork, commitment, discipline and leadership.

Escalante also serves as Athletic Director at Calvary Murrieta Christian Schools, where he leads 27 interscholastic teams, 6th to 12th grades.

“I look at coaching as an opportunity to instill in young people the values and principles of servant-

hood, character, integrity, dignity and respect,” says Escalante. “Every one of us has the potential to inspire greatness in others, we just need to do it. I have been asked, ‘How do you do that?’ Three things: love God, love others as yourself, and lead by example.

Now go and be a blessing to somebody else without expecting anything in return. Do that and you will be on your way to inspiring others to greatness.”

Escalante will receive a $1,000 grant for new equipment to improve player safety as well as a commemorative helmet. Four finalists nationwide will also qualify for a chance to win a grand prize of an additional $4000 in grants.

“Several local businesses have already stepped up and written checks to help support this event and the Puma Baseball program.

Companies already stepping up are car dealerships like the new owners at Temecula Valley Toyota, Finance Companies like Ag Credit, and local family-owned businesses like Memory Computer,” says Craig.

Darlene Rounds, owner of Memory Computers on Jefferson Road says, “We are happy to support such a great cause.

We hope this will help

people find out that we fix computers, iPhones and iPads.”

“Please come out and enjoy the beautiful and highly-rated Redhawk Golf course, bring some friends, enjoy the baseball players lugging your golf bags from the bag drop area to

the carts, play with friends, relatives and neighbors,” added Johns.

Chaparral High School - Kyla Cooper Kyla is involved in many clubs at Chaparral High School and is a swim team captain. She plans to go to college to obtain a PhD and become a college mathematics professor. An obstacle she had to overcome was to prepare for both a big swim meet and an AP test. Her coach and teacher believed in her and with their support, was able to succeed at both. Kyla’s father, Troy Cooper, said that as a 4th or 5th grader, he found Post-it notes with goals written on them on the back of Kyla’s bedroom door. Kyla’s nominating teacher, Anne McNulty said Kyla is a tenacious learner who will not let go of learning something, which is a trait that will take her far in life.

When her best friend died during her sophomore year, she became more involved, at first as a distraction, but then because of the enjoyment of doing it. Principal Holly Wilson said Mandy is the editor of the yearbook, senior class president, is taking four AP classes and through it all finds time to think of others, like sending flowers to the mom of her best friend who passed away. Nominating teacher, Joanna Ricketts, said Mandy “is a creative and innovative leader with an ambitious heart to go after accomplishing every goal she sets for her life.” Her father, Dan Leigh feels that she will be able to climb every mountain and hopes she enjoys the journey.

Great Oak High School - Nicholas Hermesman Principal Keith Moore said Nicholas has all the intangibles that make him a perfect recipient of student of the month. Nominating teacher Diana Arban said Nicholas is a gifted writer and student but remains humble through all his dealings with others. He mentors Junior IB students and is involved in the drama program. He hopes to attend Columbia University where he plans on majoring in theatre and hopes someday to become a playwright.

The greatest lesson he has learned so far is that “failure is merely a way

Temecula Preparatory School Neville Muringayi Neville loves helping others and hopes to attend MIT next fall to obtain an engineering degree so he can help provide fresh drinking water for people in other countries, especially the country of Zimbabwe, his birth country. He said “improving yourself first is how you best help others,” and does so by volunteering his time to community events and tutoring elementary students. Nominating teacher Ms. Resh said Neville is a well-rounded individual and is a natural leader who will bring “a lot of good to a lot of people.” She said he has integrity, is respectful, scholarly, good-natured and wellbalanced.

Temecula Valley High School Savannah McLaughlin When Savannah was a freshman in high school, her mother passed away from breast cancer and al-

though it has been hard without a mom, has learned to not let the hard times get her down and to push through and preserve because there is always a silver lining. Nominating teacher Dawn Murray-Sibley said Savannah is a true inspiration and is beautiful on both the inside and outside. She said she is a top athlete in basketball, plays lacrosse, is an excellent student and is involved in many clubs, all while helping her dad with her three younger siblings. When asked by Principal Allen Williams why she participates in so many activities, she said “because I really like helping people.” Her dad said she is the greatest daughter ever and is so proud of her. She said she does not yet know where she will attend college but plans to study environmental science. She said even though the years following her mom’s death were hard, she has worked hard to become a successful student and knows her mom would be proud of her.

Hine Subaru quietly celebrates first anniversary Paul Bandong Staff Writer John Hine opened the Hine Subaru dealership Aug. 9, 2013.

At the time, City Manager Aaron Adams said, “This is exciting for Temecula to have another dealership. It will bring jobs and new revenue to the area.”

Over the course of its first year, Hine Subaru has put 574 happy residents into the latest models of symmetrical all-wheel drive, fuelefficient, reliable and safe vehicles.

The fledgling dealership is on a pace to sell 770 vehicles this year.

Sales are showing a 37 percent increase over last year’s numbers, and parts and service are up 40 percent.

The company is strong in parts wholesaling, supporting many local repair and body shop businesses.

“Our commitment to parts wholesaling not only supports local businesses, but it also means vehicles can be repaired locally and those dollars stay in our community,” said Bill Brumbaugh, General Manager of Hine Subaru.

The dealership has contributed $225,000 in direct sales tax revenue to the City of Temecula this past year. “We employ 59 full-time employees from the local area,” said Brumbaugh. “Only one employee commutes from outside the area.”

The Temecula dealership is on pace to be recognized as a Stellar

Care store, the highest honor for a Subaru store. The award recognizes a dealership’s dedication to delivering an outstanding customer experience: people, processes, ethics, amenities, etc. Less than five percent of new start-ups are able to achieve this honor. The Temecula store provides comfortable waiting areas, free Wi-Fi and is pet-friendly.

“When we were selected and asked to bring a Subaru dealership to this area, we went to visit the plant in Lafayette, Indiana,” said Brumbaugh. “We were impressed about how the cars were being responsibly manufactured in a zero-landfill plant. The brand is ranked number one in safety and reliability, and Subaru is the only car company with increased sales and profits for six straight years.

We were excited because these cars fit the active lifestyle of our local citizens; within 45 minutes, we can get to the ocean and beaches, deserts, forests and mountains.”

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has recognized Subaru with more 2014 Top Safety picks than any other brand. In fact, Subaru is the only manufacturer with IIHS Top Safety Picks for all models for the last five years (2010-2014). Subaru models are extremely reliable: 95 percent of Subaru vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today

John Hine Subaru opened its doors August 9, 2013.

(IHS Automotive).

“Subaru has also instituted a Guaranteed Trade-In Program,” says Brumbaugh. “When you buy the car, we will give you a guaranteed trade-in amount for that car after the first twelve months for a total of six years. That’s real peace of mind.”

“These cars are not only safe and reliable,” says Brumbaugh,

“they employ the latest technology and get great gas mileage.” Every Subaru model will have back-up cameras by the end of 2015, even though government mandates do not require them until after 2016.

Subaru’s newest model, the 2015 Legacy, features symmetrical allwheel drive, 36 mpg, and a top IIHS safety rating.

“We’re exceeding the factory’s

expectations for year one and well ahead of goals set for us in year two,” said Brumbaugh. In fact, Hine Subaru of Temecula already has plans for expansion. They are in escrow on 4.7 acres of land behind the existing dealership. They are planning on building a parking structure for inventory, additional service bays as well as an expanded showroom on the existing site.

2015 Nissan Versa Note The Nissan Versa Note SV dash layout is modern and easy to navigate.

Chauncy Miller photos

[Below] The Nissan Versa Note SV has exterior styling at home in any setting.

Paul Bandong Staff Writer Like many of us do, I recently took my car into the local dealership for some service and maintenance. The car is a 2011 Nissan Altima, our second Nissan. Our first one was a brand new 1996 Maxima SE that we took our new baby son home from the hospital in eighteen years ago; 250,000 miles later, we symbolically sent him off from home to college in it. We have never had any major repairs and the car still gets 24 miles per gallon.

I drove into the service lanes at Temecula Nissan, recently acquired by the Pedder Automotive Group, and was immediately greeted by two service advisors who very efficiently gathered all the necessary information. Since the car had to stay for a short extended period, they offered me a Nissan rental, part of a new program offering by Nissan, and in minutes I was on my way.

The 2015 Nissan Versa Note SV (hatchback edition) subcompact sedan offers great space, versatility and most importantly, great gas mileage. The first thing that struck my eye was the instant curb appeal of the exterior styling. The tall stance coupled with the aerodynamic wedge shape, wide doors and the hatchback rear gave it a larger look than most cars in this class.

Entering the car, I was surprised by the interior roominess and the modern utilitarian layout of the gauge cluster, switch gear and controls within easy reach. The cabin also had a very roomy feel. The versatile bucket seats were comfortable with reasonable support. The driver’s seat seemed higher than a normal bucket and afforded good visibility.

My one nitpick is that the drinks in the cupholders are a little hard to get to with the shift lever in park — no problem while driving.

The back seats were roomy enough for two full-size adults with good headroom and legroom, a rare

attribute for a subcompact and quite handy when taking my wife and her parents out for her birthday dinner.

They also commented on the “cute” styling and the interior roominess.

There was enough room in the cargo area for the cases of water and sport drinks I picked up at Costco and I imagine adequate for most small families’ grocery runs. The rear seats also recline to double the cargo space.

The car handled well on the back road behind Pechanga to Fallbrook with responsive steering easily controlling the wheels that are stretched out to the corners of the car. There was a little bit of roll in the corners with the soft suspension settings that adapt well to road irregularities. The ABS brakes with Electronic Brake Force Distribution and Brake Assist had no problems with the twisty road.

The Versa Note’s compact size and light steering makes it easy to maneuver and park. The car has a tight turning radius for making u-turns when the right parking space opens up in the Steinmart parking lot where I bought my wife’s birthday present.

The car’s shining moments however, were on the highway and at the gas pump. With EPA numbers of 27-31 city/ 36-40 highway, the car enjoyed cruising all day on Highway 15 at 55-60 mph. Its 109-hp, 1.6 liter four-cylinder with continuously variable automatic transmission had a wide power band; however, it doesn’t have the passing power (horsepower or price tag) of the 370 sport coupe.

The Versa Note comes in five trim levels, including the new SR and SL, base S, S Plus (shiftless Xtronic transmission and active grill shutters), and SV (power windows/ locks, leather trim, etc.). The SR has sportier looks (front/rear fascias and grill, darkened headlights, bodycolor sills, rear spoiler, side mirrors with turn signals), and the SL has lot of additional upscale features.

The model has an MSRP ranging from $13,990 - $15,990. Comfort, lots of curb appeal, great gas mileage,

modern interior design, reliability, and affordability make this a great value as a commuter car, second car, or for a student.

The Nissan Versa Note is available for test drives and purchase at Temecula Nissan, 41895 Motor Car Parkway, Temecula, CA 92591.

n Aguanga, just three miles past Hwy 371, you will find an eclectic dining experience at the County Line BBQ Cafe Wood Fire Grill.

There the friendly staff will greet and serve you a real taste of Americana. The restaurant’s meals are cooked over a wood fire grill, which adds a savory smoke flavor to dishes that cannot be beat.

Their Old Western Classic Americana Cuisine features ingredients grown and raised locally on local farms and ranches, whenever possible.

They also serve locally produced fresh breads and desserts. Some of the fine meats that are used in their various dishes include Black Angus beef, grass-fed bison, elk, lamb, salmon, heritage turkey, free-range chicken, pheasant, duck, quail and wild boar.

For each, Chef Jacqu prepares a special sauce. The sauce gives the dishes a burst of favor that cannot be described; it has to be tasted.

County Line BBQ Cafe Wood Fire Grill is moderately priced with ample portions and unusual tastes. Many of the dishes are well-known favorites that have been given a culinary flare.

County Line BBQ Cafe is under new management and is now the sister business of the up and coming Emerald Creek Winery, which will be opening soon. Emerald Creek Winery’s owner Rao Anne was so impressed with the cuisine prepared

by Chef Jacqu and his staff that he had to get involved.

The Cafe is now under his management, and he plans to upgrade the ambiance of restaurant’s exterior and have a portion of its cuisine

Emerald Creek’s vineyard clippings are used to stoke the restaurant wood grill fire adding to the delicious taste of the food prepared. It is a way of putting to good use one of the byproducts of raising wine grapes, Anne said.

Being community-minded, Anne noted how he intends to build his winery around the idea of using everything local, including the help.

Besides having the tasting room at his winery, he will have horseback riding,

ICA kicks off ‘National Adoption Awareness Month’ Paul Bandong Staff Writer International Christian Adoptions (ICA) kicked off National Adoption Awareness Month with their first (and planned to be annual) Orphan Awareness Forum this past Saturday morning, Nov. 1 at the Calvary Chapel Conference Center Auditorium in Murrieta. “The goal is to increase awareness of the orphan crisis among families and churches,” said Pastor Ren Sabio of ICA. “We want to encourage them to prayer, action and advocacy. We need voices for these voiceless ones.”

The event featured international and U.S. adoptive family presentations, over twenty exhibitors (including hands-on cultural exploration), a kid-friendly treasure hunt, cultural dance performances, an interactive drum session, as well as free taste samples of international foods. Proceeds from the silent auction provide scholarships to assist adoptive families.

There were information tables for adoptions in Bulgaria, Haiti, Latvia, Mexico, Philippines, Romania, Taiwan, and United States’ fosterto-adopt programs.

A Free Trade store sold exotic items from around the world. A Children’s Peace exhibit showcased the adverse effects of child labor,

poverty, child abuse, sex trafficking and human slavery on the human rights of children around the world (www.dosomething.org and www. unicef.org).

Sabio’s welcoming address to the crowd included astounding numbers: The U.S. government estimates there are 18.3 million double orphans worldwide who have lost both parents; 163 million children worldwide have lost one or both parents; More than two million children are in institutional care; 17.5 million are orphans due to AIDS; 14.5 million orphans grow into adulthood each year; A study in Russia showed that 60% of orphan girls become prostitutes and 70% of orphan boys become criminals; There are over 500,000 in the U.S. foster care system.

“Statistics can numb us,” says Sabio, “but one statistic matters more than any other: the number of caring families it takes to transform the life of an orphan is -- one.”

A number of adopted children shared their stories. Anya was adopted from Russia at age ten and is now a senior in high school. “I just finished filling out my college applications,” she giggled. Anya

was so grateful to be adopted and have an opportunity at a better life that she started a business with a portion of the proceeds to benefit ICA (goodgirllockets.com).

Alicia, a 16-year old at Santa Rosa Academy in Menifee, was adopted at age two. “People ask why I don’t look like my family and when I tell them I am adopted, they say ‘I’m so sorry’ and I don’t understand that. I have been so loved and accepted, I never really knew a difference between a real family and an adopted one.”

Youjay, 20, a student at Calvary Bible College, lost his family in a civil war in Liberia and grew up in an orphanage. “We ate once a day. I slept on a cold cement floor with 100 other kids. Our toilet was a bucket in one corner of the room that often overflowed onto the kids around it. There was no love, no hope . . . I never thought I had a chance to be adopted.” Somehow he was included in a small album of children that a travelling blind choir brought on tour with them; a couple in a small church in Humboldt (northern California) was moved to adopt him.

Youjay was so excited he told everyone “I have a mom now! She’s a white woman!” He had never seen a white person before. He is studying and preparing to go back to Africa as an advocate for orphans.

Adoptive parents also shared their stories. Christi Brotherton’s journey included becoming a Christian at age five, being diagnosed with epilepsy at age 15, meeting her husband Brent and getting married at 20, getting pregnant and regretfully aborting a child, and getting her ovarian tubes tied to prevent additional pregnancies. They adopted four children; she didn’t want any more. A radio commercial for ICA looking for host homes for four weeks for four orphans from Russia was the catalyst for her further spiritual growth – “I struggled with the question ‘Have you surrendered everything to Christ?’ We adopted Roman and Tatiana.”

Guest speakers Irene and Domingo Garcia have fostered 32 children, adopted 16 and have two biological sons. Ten are still in the home and many have special needs. “We are not special,” said Irene. “We are just God’s children. It’s not what we’re going to do for the children, but what God will teach us through the process. It’s a hard journey, but it’s a wonderful journey – you will see God at work.”

“The greatest need for an orphan is a loving home and loving parents,” shared Domingo. He further shared two major misconceptions of adoption.

Myth #1: All foster-adoption cases are negative. “There are many positive stories,” he says. He referred the audience to the website www.richinlove.com and the book by the same name.

Myth #2: Foster care is for women. “We are made differently.

Women are more compassionate; they respond to need. Men need to know how and why.” He referred to Biblical mandates to take care of widows and orphans and pointed out

that these were directed to the men of the church.

Garcia closed with the question “There are millions of Christians in this country; why are there so many orphans here?”

Adoptive parents and families shared their experiences – struggles and joys -- in a question and answer panel.

Some of the exhibitors included: Birth Choice of Temecula, Mercy Projects, Global Recordings Network, Fountain of Life International Center, Jubilee Exchange, America’s Christian Credit Union, Heartbeats Drumming, Good Girl Lockets, Temecula Academy of Arts, Fresh + Faith Clothing, Helping Orphans Through Real Estate, Rose Again Foundation, and Project T.O.U.C.H. La Couronne Catering also provided salads and specialty croissants.

“There is a movement going on to get families and churches educated about this orphan crisis,” said Sabio.

“If our churches would be involved and do the job we are biblically mandated to do, these civil and government organizations would not be stressed and overpopulated. It is not ‘What is the solution?’ but ‘Who is the solution?’ We hope to have every church launch an Orphan Care Ministry. Adoption is the visual Gospel.”

Team USA makes it to the podium at Motocross of Nations Murrieta athletic trainer helped make it possible

Eddie Casillas’ face was tense as he watched Team USA race to earn a place on the podium. It was Sept. 29 and three Motocross pros were representing the U.S. in the 2014 Motocross of Nations, held in Latvia. The event is known as the “Olympics of Motocross” and 33 countries participated. Only three teams would earn a medal.

Casillas, athletic trainer and owner of Ichor Sports Medicine in Murrieta, was one of two medical professionals who accompanied Team USA this year. Along with Dr. Christopher Alexander (an orthopedic surgeon also from Murrieta), Casillas’ role was to provide assessment and emergency treatment for Team USA’s riders who are injured.

The day before the final races, things looked doubtful for Team USA races when 19-year-old Jeremy Martin crashed during a qualifying race. “We saw him go down — it happens and isn’t necessarily alarming,” Casillas said, speaking from 10 years of experience at Motocross of Nations events. “Jeremy got back up pretty quickly and finished the trial race, but with difficulty.” An

onsite x-ray showed that Martin’s big toe was broken in three places.

“He could have opted out,” Casillas went on to say, “but he insisted on giving it a shot. He told us he would rather suffer through the final races than suffer for the rest of his life, feeling he let his country down.”

They were able to numb Martin’s toe, and Casillas taped the foot in such a way as to immobilize the toe while allowing the foot enough sensation and flexibility to ride, and also fit into his Motocross boot. With this medical and moral support, Martin was able to finish the final races, helping Team USA earn third place on the podium, behind France who took first and Belgium who came in second.

Casillas has traveled the world as a member of the medical unit for Motocross and soccer competitions. In addition to responding to traumatic injuries on the track, he provides training and rehabilitation to these athletes. He has served in the same capacity at U.S. SnoCross and jet ski competitions. It is Casillas’ extensive background that makes him a sought-after medical professional in this field.

Pro-Biotics — Bugs you do want in your horse’s life

By Jessica Lynn Although many people in the horse world use the terms pre & pro-biotic, they may not realize the major role these live beneficial organisms play in their horse’s health.

Pro-biotics boost our horse’s immune health, prevent some forms of colic, and may help our horses steer clear of equine ulcers. In fact, in her book, Equine Supplements and Nutraceuticals, Dr.. Eleanor Kellon, DVM, states “Pro-biotics improve digestion, protect against dangerous bacteria such as salmonella, and reduce gas accumulation.”

These mighty microbes are definitely worth a closer look so jump on-board while we take a trip into the world of bugs -- beneficial microorganisms, that is.

Digestive systems and good gut bacteria –working together for health To fully appreciate beneficial bugs, it’s important to have a basic understanding of the role they play in the equine digestive system.

When a horse starts grinding food with his teeth, his mouth releases enzymes, and thus begins that mouthful’s approximately 100foot journey through the digestive tract. The food mixes with digestive juices as it enters the stomach where digestive enzymes and billions of microbials begin their work. Although a horse’s stomach is relatively small compared to its size, it is tasked with initiating the breakdown of nutrients using digestive enzymes and stomach acids; very little absorption takes place there.

Instead, soluble carbohydrates, along with minerals, fats and proteins, are absorbed in the small intestine. Insoluble carbohydrates that are not so easily digested, as well as any undigested soluble carbohydrates, then pass to the cecum, the “fermentative vat”, before moving into the large intestine. A variety of live microbials in the cecum break down the remaining nutrients into a viable usable form -- absorbable volatile fatty acids which the horse uses for energy and nutrients.

Without a strong army of beneficial intestinal bacteria, the food moving through the digestive tract

is not “fermented” properly, and some remains undigested. When it hits the gastro-intestinal tract, this undigested food may lead to colic, bloat, or laminitis and increase the possibility of developing foodrelated allergic conditions.

The Good, Bad and Neutral?

Although people often think in negative terms when they hear the word “bacteria”, in reality there are three kinds of bacterial microorganisms -- “good” (beneficial), “neutral” and “bad” (i.e. E. Coli, salmonella. et al).. Horses need a balance between these, thankfully only a few of the “bad” lactic acidproducing bacteria are needed to keep the good and neutral in check.

As long as the balance of good, neutral and bad bacteria remains constant and the gastro-intestinal tract is stable, the horse stays healthy.

However, when the delicate balance is upset, the horse may not be able to properly digest or assimilate the nutrients he needs from his food. This can manifest itself as a dull coat, skin conditions, allergies, inability to maintain weight, slow hoof growth, sore feet, or other medical conditions including intermittent diarrhea.

Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary defines the word “pro” as “being in favor of” and “biotics” as a branch of science dealing with the phenomena of living organisms. “Anti-biotic” on the other hand means against life or against living organisms Imbalance-tipping the scales The population of beneficial live micro-organisms in the cecum remains relatively “stable” under normal conditions. As long as a horse is never stressed, never needs to be chemically wormed, is never vaccinated, never has a change in feed, and never needs antibiotics, then the balance should remain unaltered.. However, as we all know, our horses do experience stressful events, may need antibiotics or worming on occasion, and do have feed changes with the seasons and each load of hay.

Some of the most common

causes of digestive disturbances in horses include: • stress brought on by sudden changes in food, unseasonable weather conditions, moving, travel, competition, training and showing.

• chemical worming • parasitic infestations • vaccines • viruses • fevers • antibiotics • breeding season, pregnancy, foaling, and weaning -- both for mare and foal.

Another far too common source of digestive disturbance is starch and/or sugar overload. Grazing on rich spring grass or eating a diet too high in sugars can disrupt beneficial microbials, causing partial die-off..

This raises the acidity in the gut, changing the natural pH balance, resulting in massive destruction of the normal micro-flora. Recent laminitis studies have indicated the toxins caused by this die-off can lead to laminitis.

Unfortunately, the micro flora/ microbial balance in a horse can be upset much faster than it can be restored. The effect may not show up immediately, but a horse’s beneficial intestinal bacteria can be depleted or destroyed and the pH of this environment severely altered during digestive upset.

Therefore, it’s wise to be proactive by reducing stressors, when possible and supplementing with pro-biotics during at-risk times or after chemical worming, vaccinations, or changes in feed stuff.

Some people feed pro-biotics daily as a preventative and for their immune boosting effects.

Getting the most benefit from pro-biotics Now that we understand the important role microbials play in our horse’s health, it’s time to learn about supplementation.. Really, there are three basic things to keep in mind: 1. Numbers count. One serving of a good live microbial pro-biotic supplement should have a guaranteed minimum in the billions (not millions) of CFU (colony form-

ing units) of lactic acid bacteria.

Too little of the correct microorganisms are likely to have little positive effect.

2. Supplement pro-biotics during at risk times, especially during illness, stress, feed changes, traveling or foaling/weaning times.

In high risk instances, such as with vaccinations, antibiotic treatments or chemical worming, begin two

weeks prior and continue two weeks after.

3. Choose a variety of equinefriendly strains. Pick a product that contains at least six different strains of beneficial organisms.

Some of the popular paste probiotics only contain one strain and can unbalance the beneficial bacteria in a horses gut.

Some of the common beneficial strains of beneficial bacteria • Combination of the Lactobacillus strains: Supports the colonization of friendly bacteria in the colon (hind gut area), aiding in a normal breakdown of food and proper digestion.

• Lactobacillus acidophilus: Produces lactic acid that keeps “bad bacteria” in check. Continued colonization by this bacteria helps to inhibit the growth of other pathogens (bad bacteria) by competing for nutrients and promoting healthy pH levels.

• Lactobacillus subtilis: Produces specific substances that have been observed to inhibit the growth of some pathogenic microorganisms including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella sp.

• Lactobacillus lactis: A natural occurring micro flora that plays a critical role in maintaining a balanced intestinal ecosystem.

• Bacillus subtilis: Counteracts deadly bacteria that can cause diarrhea.

• Saccromyces cervisiae: Derived from live yeast cultures. Produces certain enzymes and some B vitamins.

Pre-Biotics Usually when supplementing a good source of horse friendly Pro-biotics you will also see that a manufacturer will add fructioligiosaccharide or mannaoligiosaccharide, those are both considered Pre-biotics, and what a pre-biotic does is feed the ProBiotics your horse already has in his gut, and they will also help to feed the Probiotics you are supplementing as well.

Now, when you hear the term pre & pro-biotic, give a silent round of applause for the hardworking micro-organisms keeping your horse healthy and happy.

HINT- To reduce an animal’s susceptibility to gut disturbances, you can routinely supplement with a product that couples pro-biotics with a high quality digestive enzyme complex containing amylase, cellulose, b glucanase, lipase, pectinase and protease.

Pro-biotics help prevent ulcers During his presentation at the 2005 American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) Practice Management Seminar: Focus on Equine Colic, internationally recognized veterinarian Frank Andrews, DVM, MS, Diplomat ACVIM, discussed colonic ulcers in horses.

Dr. Andrews suggested we all consider implementing methods to decrease stress and to avoid the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). He also recognized pro-biotics and digestive aids as important tools in helping the many performance horses that may have colon pain.
