Maddi Olson tells students ‘Wear Your Safety Helmet’ Tony Ault Writer

Carlos A. Bazan-Canabal Writer It was the stuff that horror movies are made of at Twin Creek Ranch on Saturday, Nov. 7, as hundreds of cars converged upon the south Aguanga location for the Temecula Zombie Run 2015. As people huddled by fire barrels to keep themselves warm, music blared throughout the venue.

Maddi Olson, 17, critically injured two years ago in a skateboard accident, made a special appearance at Murrieta’s Shivela Middle School giving the hundreds of students there this word of advice. “Please! Wear your safety helmet, so I feel that I did not fail you today.” Maddi, her mother and sister, for the first time since Maddi’s near fatal skateboard accident in San Clemente, wanted to tell their story so that other children and adults know the consequences of not wearing a safety helmet while riding any two-wheeled vehicle, be it a scooter, bicycle, skateboard or motorcycle. It was the Murrieta Police Department Traffic Division’s continuing effort in the “City of Murrieta’s Bicycle Helmet Campaign.” First Responder, Orange County Paramedic Derek Eastman, a

Temecula’s Jeff Stone marks his first year in California State Senate Tim O’Leary Staff Writer When Jeff Stone served on the Temecula City Council, he would frequently describe the California Legislature as disconnected and dysfunctional. His freshman year in the state Senate hasn’t altered that stance. “It’s exactly the way I expected it,” Stone said in a recap of his first year on the statewide stage. “It’s extremely dysfunctional, extremely political.” Stone has charted a singular path in regional politics. He began by leveraging his role as a prominent pharmacist in a fastgrowing community. From there, he stair-stepped his way onto the City Council, the Riverside County

Start Smart makes teens and parents aware of the responsibilities they face and teaches what precautions to take to stay safe. A Start Smart certificate of completion will be given to all attendees. The class is free.

The next available class will be held on Thursday, Nov. 19, at 6 p.m. The class will be held at the Temecula City Hall, located at 41000 Main Street in Temecula.

The 28th District of the California State Senate blankets all of Riverside County except for its northwest corner. Senate Demographics courtesy image

STONE from page A-1 Board of Supervisors and now the state Senate. His latest milestone is a blend of both fields. Call it politics on steroids. In terms of political intensity, Stone rated the council level at a 10, the Board of Supervisors at 100 and the Senate at 1,000. “Everything in Sacramento has a political element,” he said. “I love what I’m doing, even though the environment is very tough.” Breaking barriers Stone, who opened his Temecula pharmacy in 1983, soon won name recognition for vocally opposing a developer’s plans to open the area’s first Walmart store. Stone and others argued that the proposed location was better suited for a regional mall, which turned out to be the site’s eventual use. Stone was also vocal about the need to quickly eradicate the graffiti that was being splashed about Old Town and other locations as Temecula coalesced into a city in December 1989. Stone and Ron Roberts, a California Highway Patrol officer, were both elected to the council in 1992. Stone served on the council for three terms and was repeatedly tapped to be mayor. During Stone’s years on the council, Temecula sued the county over regional growth and traffic issues. In 2004, Stone defeated an entrenched incumbent to become the first official from southwest Riverside County to be elected to a supervisor’s job. That supervisorial district had previously been held by political leaders from Hemet and other population hubs east of the Interstate 15 corridor. Ron Bradley, who worked as Temecula’s city manager from 1994 to 1998, helped Stone pick his county staff. Roberts was hired as one of Stone’s key aides. During Stone’s county tenure, he was credited with pushing to widen Highway 79 and for spearheading a future blueprint for Temecula’s wine country. The third supervisorial district that Stone represented is home to more than 450,000 residents. It stretches from Temecula to San Jacinto and Idyllwild to Anza Borrego Desert State Park. It takes in four cities: Temecula, Murrieta, Hemet and San Jacinto; as well as such far-flung unincorporated communities as Murrieta Hot Springs, French Valley, Winchester, Aguanga, Lake Riverside and Anza. Stone lost his first bid for statewide office, but he eked out a narrow victory a year ago. In doing so, he became the first southwest Riverside County leader to capture a state Senate seat. “I broke the mold,” Stone said in a recent interview in his Murrieta office. He is paid $97,197 a year to represent nearly 932,000 residents of one of the fastest-growing counties in the nation. His 28th District blankets all of Riverside County except for its northwest corner. His district stretches from De Luz to Blythe and the Arizona border, but it skirts

Corona, Riverside, Perris, Menifee, Hemet and Cabazon. Term limits allow legislators to serve a total of 12 years in the Assembly, Senate or in a combination of both branches of state government. Settling in With the outcome of the race in doubt until the very end, Stone had to find a part-time Sacramento residence on short notice. He acquired a townhouse near the Capitol, and immersed himself in hiring a staff and assessing the lay of the land. He continues to own his Murrieta drug compounding pharmacy. He stretched his Senate budget to open two offices instead of one. Stone again tapped Bradley’s administrative and business acumen to help pick a new staff. Stone hired Temecula City Councilwoman Maryann Edwards as his west district director. In doing so, Edwards left behind her post as chief executive of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Southwest County. Stone hired Glen Miller as the district director of his Indio office. Miller has served on the Indio City Council since 2008 and has been mayor once during that period. Miller ran against Stone as a fellow Republican in the Senate primary election, and he finish third in the crowded field of six candidates. Stone hired John Hunneman, a longtime Temecula-area newspaper columnist, as his communications director. Stone tapped Greg Pettis as a desert representative. Pettis has served as a Cathedral City councilman since 1994, and he has also served on the Riverside County Transportation Commission and the Southern California Association of Governments. SCAG is the nation’s largest metropolitan planning organization. It serves more than 18 million people and is comprised of six counties and 191 cities. Stone and Bradley say the hiring decisions were based on the applicants’ experience, past performance and loyalty, not due to connections or cronyism. “It’s really a dream team,” Stone said. “You’ve got to have people you trust working for you. They had to pass the Ron Bradley litmus test.” Moving forward Stone will turn 60 as the legislative session resumes in January. He is the vice chairman of two committees: Natural Resources and Labor and Industrial Relations. He also serves on the Public Safety and Budget and Fiscal Review committees. Stone said one of his biggest challenges has been shifting his outlook from a Republican-dominated region to the Democratic-controlled Legislature. Democrats are clearly in the driver’s seat in California, as the party occupies the governor’s mansion and holds 26 of the 40 state Senate seats. Stone – who describes himself as “a little compulsive, obsessive” – said he is now well past the period in which he quietly watched bills being introduced and votes unfold. Stone said he soon began speaking out sharply on a range of spending,

taxation, infrastructure and business regulatory issues. “It’s a very challenging environment to navigate as a Republican,” Stone said. “But I feel a tremendous amount of accomplishment just by standing up and venting. You play a lot of defense when you’re in the minority, and I think I’ve pulled away some Democrats and helped kill some bills that were really bad.” But Stone’s pointed criticisms were not just aimed at the Democrats. He scolded members of his own party for failing to speak up when needed. He faced whispers from members of both parties who chided him for speaking out too often and possibly positioning himself for a future congressional campaign. “I love to engage,” Stone said. “I don’t talk in rhetoric. I bring up solid facts. I bring up a lot of the hypocrisy that’s going on and I bring up a lot of the waste.” Stone said his strategy seems to be working, as more Republicans are now speaking out on key issues rather than suffering in silence. “The state, I believe, is broken and it needs to be fixed,” Stone said. From Bradley’s perspective, Stone has already left his mark as the region’s first duke in the realm of Senate politics and policies. “For being in the minority, he’s done a magnificent job up there,” Bradley said in a recent telephone interview. “Jeff has earned the respect of both sides of the aisle. I expect a great future for him in the Senate.” Bradley said he “absolutely” expects that Stone will someday set his sights on a higher political office. But Bradley declined to speculate which office Stone might seek at some future point. One of Stone’s colleagues and political allies also gives him kudos for his first lap around the legislative track. “He’s doing a fine job. He’s totally immersed when he’s on the (Senate) floor,” said state Senator Mike Morrell, (R-Rancho Cucamonga.) Morrell’s 23rd District blankets a large swath of central and southwest Riverside County. Those communities include Calimesa, Cabazon, Banning, Beaumont, San Jacinto, Hemet, Lakeview, Nuevo, Romoland and Menifee. Menifee is in the southern corner of the district. Morrell’s district edges into Los Angeles County, where it serves the Wrightwood and Mount Baldy areas. It also takes in a vast and diverse chunk of San Bernardino County that includes Rancho Cucamonga, Redlands, Loma Linda, Highland, Yucaipa, Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear Lake. Morrell said Stone frequently speaks out during Senate discussions. Such outspokenness doesn’t always result in a home run, but each single serves the home team’s purpose by putting a runner on base, Morrell said following an October gathering in Temecula’s wine country. “I think he’s done well,” Morrell added. “He’s very serious minded, and he approaches the job that way.” To comment on this story online, visit www.myvalleynews.com.

UFO sighted over So Cal skies only Navy missile, officials say

A mysterious bright object in Southern California’s western night sky reported as an unarmed missile glows into a blue-green streak high above the horizon. The blue-green hue is caused by spent rocket fuel so high into Earth’s atmosphere, that the fuel is illuminated by the Sun creating the glowing effect observed by many sky-gazers across the Southwest United States. Reports of the event was witnessed as far north as San Francisco and as far east as Las Vegas and Phoenix. Shane Gibson photos

Murrieta Planners taking over Historic Preservation duties Tony Ault Writer The Murrieta City Council handed over more duties to the city’s planning commissioners Nov. 3 by disbanding the former Historic Preservation Ad-Hoc Committee that oversaw the city’s cultural and historical resources. The Planning Commission now assumes those duties. The responsibility of preserving the city’s historical sites, like many located in Old Town Murrieta, has been handed off to a number of committees since 2001 when it was

first formed under the direction of the Community Services Commission. The purpose of the HPAC was to serve in an advisory capacity to the City Council in matters affecting the preservation of cultural and archaeological resources. HPAC initially consisted of the Community Services Commission and two to four appointed members. The appointed members were to be knowledgeable in many planning fields including city history, historic preservation, archaeology, and the city’s architectural styles. They also were looking for licensed contractors familiar with

the city’s historic planning overlay. As a result, it was difficult to recruit qualified candidates. Five years later the HPAC formation was moved out of the city’s development code and moving it to the municipal code just like all other city commissions. It was then taken out of the Community Services Commission and given independent commission status. In February 2013 is was again changed from HPAC to the HPAC Ad-Hoc committee by the City Council and called on as needed for advice on historic planning matters. Earlier this year a notice of a vacancy in the Ad-Hoc committee was posted pending a new project review. The city was looking to fill five vacancies. Three weeks later only two applications were received, prompt-

ing the City Council to take another look at the HAPC Ad-Hoc Committee. The city council was concerned that because of the recruitment delay the desired project would be delayed for many weeks. The Council at last weeks’ meeting, after discussion, voted 5-0 to disband the HAPC Ad-Hoc Committee and turn the historic preservation and planning review over to the Planning Commission directly in order to keep the city’s goal of being “business friendly.” In a report by City Planner Cynthia Kinser and approved by City Manager Rick Dudley and Ivan Holler, Development Services Director, the council was told the action will save six to eight weeks of project review and approval time. In another action the City Council

in a 4-1 vote awarded a contract to Temeka Advertising to design, install, maintain and lease space on the city’s offsite subdivision signs. Competitive bids were sent out prior to the contract being awarded. Under the new contract, good through 2020, the city will receive at least 40 percent of the gross sale amount from the contractor. In recent years with the many housing subdivisions being built in growing cities signs advertising their homes for sale have been regulated by city ordinance. Without the ordinance signs of any size and color might be erected almost anywhere by the builders and Realtors, that could become obtrusive to the landscape. Councilman Harry Ramos cast the only no vote.

Local OLSEN from page A-1 Murrieta resident, first took the stage to tell what happened to Maddi on Jan. 5, 2014. He said they received a call in the early afternoon that a girl was down on a street in San Clemente. When they arrived Maddi lay in a pool of blood on the street. Her two friends were there with her. “It was a traumatic head injury. She hit a rock or something on the skateboard and fell. She was unconscious and not responding. It was most likely a skull fracture. It was not good,” said Eastman. “I didn’t think she was going to make it.” Eastman said they looked around for a helmet. There was none. They put her on a breathing mask and rushed her to Mission Hospital, the nearest trauma center, but the main

neurosurgeon was not there. Another doctor managed to stabilize her and is credited with saving her life. The diagnosis was grim. The doctors had nothing to help them determine exactly on which side of the head the injury occurred. Eastman said if a person is wearing a helmet, falls and is still injured, the doctors can look at the helmet and see how hard the fall had been and better have an idea how extensive the injury is. A cracked helmet would indicate a more severe injury. Maddi had no helmet to help the doctors make a diagnosis. It was here Maddi’s entire life changed. The doctors, in an attempt to save her life, resorted to extreme brain surgery cutting out a piece of skull to relieve the internal bleeding. An internal brain bleed if not relieved quickly can be fatal and even if it is

PEOPLE DRIVE FROM ALL OVER TO FIND THE CAR OF THEIR DREAMS. AREN’T YOU CURIOUS WHY?

Murrieta Police Officer Jennifer Metoyer speaks about the importance of wearing a helmet during a presentation about Maddi Olson’s story. Metoyer helped organize the presentation at the school to help promote helmet safety.

it will cause some level of damage to the body. She miraculously survived the operation and began essentially a new life. She remained in a coma for three weeks after the operation but eventually was released to her family to go home where she had to completely relearn her motor skills, moving her arms and legs, going to the bathroom, and retaining her memory. “I don’t remember much about the accident,” said Maddi. “I couldn’t remember things. I couldn’t do things. I was like a kindergartner again. It was a tearful moment when Autumn Olson, Maddi’s mother, took the podium to tell the middles choolers what she went through after learning that her daughter, who was not wearing a safety helmet, suffered a near fatal head injury after falling off her skateboard. “I am not here to tell you to wear a helmet, Autumn said, “I am here to tell the people who love you to save you from living through what I did.” She said with tears in her eyes, she had never told any group of people what she felt after Maddi was injured. “I thought she would never be the same,” Autumn said. “When I saw her it wasn’t Maddi. She couldn’t do anything for herself. My teenager was gone. I didn’t know who she would be. We even had to move from out two story home to a one story home … my independent teenager wasn’t there.” Maddi and the machines that kept her alive until she began to heal were set up in the Olson’s new home. But Maddi, with the loving care of her family, nurses and therapists began a long road to recovery. Scenes from the video shown the middle school students showed Maddi in her bed with an ice pack on

Her progress was recorded showing the therapist tossing her a plush toy and her struggling to throw it back and again moving her arms and legs with the help of a walker. She was learning all over again. The students watched quietly with a few sad “oohs” coming from their mouths. Maddi said all she remembered after the first few days after the operation were the sounds of the breathing machine. “It was like a dream.” After months of therapy she was able to return to Murrieta Valley High School. Her memory was still cloudy. She said the first day back, “more

than 100 kids lined up to greet me.” But the next few days she said,“I didn’t want anyone to know I had that kind of memory.” Her recall ability was limited because of the injury. She had to work much, much harder to remember things. The other students learned she had been assigned an aide and place in special education classes. “I was a special ed student. After that I lost almost all of my friends,” she said sadly. “I felt excluded. I did not want someone else to take care of me. She said because of that she asked to be transferred to Vista Murrieta High School where the students did not know of her circumstances. It was there she said, “I developed a new focus. I dropped all my social media. Soccer was erased from life. Now I have developed a passion to become an occupational therapist.” Maddi looking out over the hundreds of students told them, “Please! Wear your safety helmet, so I feel that I did not fail you today. Fifteen years from now I hope I don’t have to take care of you.” On a very personal note she said “Having no hair is awful. I don’t want that to happen to you. It’s really not worth it you guys!” Her mother, before Maddi’s presentation, told the students that just after her daughter’s surgery the nurse came in with a plastic bag containing Maddi’s bloody clothes and her hair, also still damp from the blood. “Please, I told the nurse. Take it away. Get rid of it,” Autumn said, tears in her eyes. It was another sign that her daughter might not make it. Through Maddi’s own determination and the love of her parents, sister, friends, doctors, nurses, therapists and the miracle she is, Maddi is on her way to becoming an active, caring teenager and soon to be an adult with a message to be told. “Wear Your Safety Helmet!” Murrieta Motor Division Sgt. Jay Froboese concluded the presentation said to the students, “If we catch you not wearing a helmet we will give you a citation.” Then he reminded them that just a year ago someone not wearing a safety helmet was killed just outside of the Shivela Middle School. Froboese and Motor Officer Jennifer Metoyer said they will be showing the Maddi Olson story to other schools in the valley in hopes of encouraging students and others to wear their bicycle and motorcycle helmets. The video was made with the assistance of Mark Cloud Productions and with donations from the Ryan Sheckler Foundation. Since her transfer Maddi is in general education classes and says she hold an A and B class average. She is a senior and needs a few more general education classes so she can go on to college.

An act of kindness from the Temecula Police Department Trevor Montgomery Writer There are days when there is nothing to be seen in the news but one negative story after another. Thanks to one compassionate and caring deputy from the Temecula Police Department, today readers get to see the other side of the coin. On Sunday, Oct. 8, while shopping at the Temecula Promenade, Deputy Bruce Pierson of the Temecula Police Department, was seen walking into Payless ShoeSource with a young lady who had no shoes on. Joshuah Rounds, who was at the mall shopping with his family, saw the deputy appeared to be helping the woman buy a pair of shoes. When Rounds family found out what Pierson was doing, he and his family offered to help pay for a second pair of shoes for the unidentified young woman. Overwhelmed at the unexpected showing of kindness, the woman started crying and told Pierson and Rounds’ family she was homeless and hadn’t had her own pair of shoes in over two months. According to Rounds, there was no doubt

the woman was desperately in need of assistance. The Payless manager even offered a 30 percent discount on the merchandise. The woman left Payless with two pairs of shoes a pack of socks and a warm scarf since the weather is getting cold. Before parting ways, Pierson told the woman he would meet her at the mall parking lot the following day at the same time so he could bring her a bag of donated clothes from the Temecula Police Department. According to those who witnessed the random act of kindness, the woman was so touched and thankful for the unexpected generosity, she couldn’t stop crying. She repeatedly thanked those who were showing her the love and support she so desperately needed. About the incident, Rounds said, “We were so thankful we could help her. It was so amazing and refreshing to see the deputy from the Temecula Police Department take time out of his busy day to go into the mall with someone who was clearly in need and help buy her things that most of us take for granted every day.”

Rounds said he was thankful to live in a city filled with “such wonderful, caring and helpful police officers. This just further proves

of Honor Scholarship Trust. Officials explained that the Path of Honor is a multiple level memorial that not only honors veterans but also helps the Temecula and Murrieta Valley ROTC (Junior Officer Training Program) programs. The group offers deserving students from each of the six Temecula and Murrieta high schools cash scholarships in support of their pursuit of an education at a college, university or trade school of their choice. The Path of Honor began with an idea and the creation of a bronze representation of the heart and soul of the fighting forces. The statue of soldier sits there with a pen in his hand with a note pad on his knee ever watchful, ever alert, with his weapon resting against his back as he guards and defends all that matters to him. The statue was created by artist and sculptor

Pierson for his actions here. He’s showing a great example of what it means to be a public servant.” One thing can be sure, today there is a woman in Temecula who not only has warm and dry feet and a big bag of clothes to help her get through the cold months ahead. But more importantly she has a warm heart, knowing she is not invisible. Thanks to the kindness of Pierson from the Temecula Police Department, the Rounds family and Payless Shoe Source, she now knows there are good and kind people in Temecula who still care enough to make a difference, even in the smallest of ways.

Path of Honor expected to induct local veterans Nov. 14 TEMECUlA – The Path of Honor organization in honor of Veterans Day is expected to induct 150 to 200 veterans who are memorialized in the Path of Honor at Temecula’s Duck Pond Nov. 14 beginning at 11 a.m. The public is invited to attend the special ceremony that will take place around the bronze statue in the Path of Honor. The veterans, their sponsors and families may visit the “Letters Home” memorial along the path. A luncheon provided by Stadium Pizza following the ceremony, expected to end about noon, will be available. The luncheon will include pizza, a salad, water and soft drinks. The luncheon location will be at the gazebo near the Ynez entrance to the park. Donations will be gratefully accepted with the proceeds going to the Path of Honor and the Path

that most cops are good and nothing like what is portrayed in the media day after day.” Captain Jeffrey Kubel of the Temecula Police Department discussed Pierson’s actions with Valley News, saying while kindness from officers mostly goes unnoticed, being helpful to others is something officers do whenever they see a need. “As a law enforcement officer, there are times when someone is in need and you do what you can to help,” he said. “It’s seldom seen by others, but it’s something that law enforcement officers do quite frequently in the communities they serve. We are very proud of Deputy

Christopher Pardell and erected in 2004. The bronze was the idea of Temecula Councilman Jeff Stone (now a California State Senator) and Councilman Jeff Comerchero with the support of the rest of the council at that time. Surrounding the bronze are inscribed letters written by United States Veterans from the Revolutionary War through all of our conflicts including Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan. In 2015 the Path of Honor Scholarship Trust presented scholarships to high school students Martin Cabrera, Valerie Alejandre, Ryan Hernandez, Samuel Rueda III, Chad Spears and Chase Spears all from Murrieta. Each year the scholarships may go to different high schools. For more local news or to comment on this story online, visit www. myvalleynews.com.

Blotter / Pets Lake Elsinore home invasion turns deadly for suspect Trevor Montgomery Writer One man is dead after following a Lake Elsinore home invasion turned deadly on Saturday, Nov. 7, when one of the suspects was shot and killed by the homeowner of the residence in question. At about 11:35 p.m., deputies from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Lake Elsinore Police Station were dispatched to the report of a home invasion robbery and shooting that had occurred on the 53000 block of Beales Street. Upon arrival, deputies learned that during a home invasion rob-

bery several suspects had gained entry or were trying to break into the residence when the homeowner confronted the suspects with a gun, at which time a gun battle ensued. After the shooting, the suspects fled the scene. During the course of their investigation, deputies located evidence suggesting one of the suspects had been struck by gunfire from the homeowner. The deputies later learned one of the suspects, who had been injured during the shooting, was transported by two of the suspects to a Riverside area hospital. That suspect, who has not been identified

pending notification his of next of kin, succumbed to his injuries at the hospital. According to Sgt. Wallace Clear of the Riverside County Sheriff Department, the sheriff’s Central Homicide Unit responded to the scene and assumed the investigation with assistance from Lake Elsinore Station investigators and deputies. The subsequent investigation revealed the decedent and his two partners had targeted the residence on Beales Street for the robbery. Two suspects, Jose Pacheco, 21, and Oscar Bustos, 21, both of Bakersfield were arrested in con-

Wildomar man dies in motorcycle crash causing the motorcyclist to collide with the BMW’s right side,’’ Lassig said. “The impact from the collision caused the motorcyclist to get ejected off the Kawasaki. The motorcyclist was then thrown into the No. 3 lane, where a 2012 International big rig was pulling two trailers.’’ Lassig said the rider fell underneath the rig’s left rear tractor tire and was dragged about 600 feet before being dislodged from the truck’s left rear wheel well. Paramedics arrived minutes later and pronounced Sithidej dead at the scene. The 60-year-old trucker and the 41-year-old SUV driver were unhurt. The CHP shut down three lanes for nearly three hours to conduct an investigation and clear the scene.

TEMECULA – A fatally injured motorcyclist who was thrown under a big rig and dragged hundreds of feet on Interstate 15 in Temecula was identified on Nov. 6 as a 44-year-old Wildomar resident. Phouphet Sithidej died shortly before 7 a.m. Thursday on southbound I-15, near Winchester Road. According to the California Highway Patrol, Sithidej was splitting lanes at about 45-50 mph in heavy traffic that was moving at about half the speed of his 2005 Kawasaki ZX-1. CHP Officer Mike Lassig said the victim was maneuvering between the fast lane and No. 2 lane when the driver of a BMW X5 SUV began merging – directly in front of the motorcyclist. “Due to the motorcyclist’s rate of speed while splitting lanes, he was unable to avoid the BMW,

Blaze breaks out in Menifee home MENIFEE – A fire that broke out in the upper half of a Menifee residence was quickly knocked down by firefighters, who prevented the flames from spreading. The non-injury blaze was reported at 12:45 p.m. Monday Nov. 9 in the 28900 block of Loire Valley Lane, just off Menifee Road, according to the Riverside County Fire Department. An agency spokeswoman said five engine crews and a truck company,

with about 30 personnel, arrived to find smoke billowing out of the second floor of the home and deployed resources to isolate the fire. The fire was contained to a single room in the 2,800-square-foot house. Firefighters had the blaze under control within 20 minutes. The home apparently was not occupied at the time. The cause of the fire was under investigation.

Shameless pandering by candidates in an effort to garner votes is just plain irritating Kim Harris Managing Editor This past weekend I was hit hard by the flu bug. I know what you are going to say, but honestly I had my flu shot over a month ago. It just never seems to really work for me, every time I get the flu shot, I come down with the dreaded illness at some point throughout the season, but that’s a whole other story. What this particular illness gave me was time, something that is all too precious in my opinion. What you do with your extra time when you have it is entirely up to you. Usually when I have some time, I like to load the kids up in the car and do something with them, sometimes we go up to Big Bear and just hang around, other times we head

to the beach or to Los Angeles and do touristy things. In this instance though, I was sick and didn’t want to infect the kids so I took to my room and spent two days catching up on my reading. I wish I could say I sat down with a good book, but I wasn’t feeling well enough to read more than an article or two at a time. I slept a lot. But when I wasn’t sleeping I learned many things about the current presidential race. All of my reading on politics led me to two very important questions. One, why do we even care what Bernie Sanders is wearing, I think the measure of a man (or woman for that matter) should be their intellectual being, not how they dress – thanks to USA today for that little gem in the form of an article about Sander’s

clothing. The second question I came up with after my weekend reading was even more enthralling, does Donald Trump really think he is funny? His stint hosting the ever popular, Saturday Night Live, just served as a platform for his narcissistic behavior which is taking up too much space in print and online. I do have to say Trump’s dancing to Drake’s “Hotline Bling” meme was pretty funny and I guess he did prove he could be the butt of a joke following the Weekend Update segment. I also learned that Ben Carson believes he is under attack because of his rise in the polls, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has been delegated to the undercard debate instead of facing off against the likes of Trump and Carly Fiorina. Speaking

of Fiorina, she spent several minutes discussing her face on “The View,” thanks to some pretty stupid jokes (as usual) made by a couple of the hosts of the show. As I sit here recapping what I read this weekend on politics, the presidential race and the candidates vying to be the leader of our fine country, only one thing came to mind, what are these people thinking? In a little less than a year, I get the honor of casting my vote for my choice as to who will become President of the United States. While candidates often-times stand out in debates as being the front-runner in my mind, I have to wonder if they really believe that these little things that pop up in the news throughout campaign season will really drive my vote.

Honoring our Veterans Marie Waldron Special to Valley News Veterans Day was first celebrated as Armistice Day to commemorate the end of World War I. The guns officially fell silent at the Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Day of the Eleventh Month, 97 years ago. Armistice Day later became a national holiday recognizing the bravery and sacrifice of over four million Americans who served and over 116,000

w w w . m y v a l l e y n e w s . c o m

who died during the “Great War.” Also known as the “War to End All Wars,” World War I did nothing of the kind. Many feel the Versailles Treaty that formally ended the conflict merely set the stage for World War II, which broke out 20 years later. After World War II, Armistice Day became Veterans Day to honor and remember all veterans who have served this country in war and in peacetime. My dad was an Army

veteran, having served in Europe during World War II. Hearing his stories and passing them on to our son is important to us as a family. For over 200 years, the millions of men and women who have worn the uniform at great risk and sacrifice have created and defended the greatest and freest nation in the history of mankind. Teaching our children and grandchildren about the valor, bravery and commitment of the men and women who defend

our Freedoms is key to protecting our future as a nation. Our veterans have never failed us, and we as a nation must never fail them. We must always support our veterans, not just remember them on Veterans Day. Above all, we must honor their service by remaining forever vigilant, so that the nation they built and defended at such great cost will remain strong and free. As the beneficiaries of their sacrifice, we can do no less.

Boehner’s gone, who’s crying now? Jane Chastain Special to Valley News “It stinks!” That was how incoming Speaker of the House Paul Ryan explained the back-room deal hatched by outgoing Speaker John Boehner and Democratic leaders that raised the debt ceiling and put us on automatic pilot to the spending stratosphere through the rest of Obama’s term. Boehner claimed he was “cleaning the barn” before Ryan took control of the House of Representatives – but where is that smell coming from? The entrance to the place is spotless, but the bad odor will linger well after Boehner is gone because of all the brown stuff he piled up in the stalls. Thanks to Boehner and the Senate’s worthless Mitch McConnell, it’s Obama who will come out smelling like a rose. The nation is on a collision course with the grim reaper over unrestrained spending, and all the hard decisions have been put off until the next president takes office. Does anyone seriously think that Paul Ryan’s hands are clean? Boehner spent weeks begging Ryan to take the reins of the House. If Dear Editor, This letter is in response to the opinion article entitled “What Is Democratic Socialism?” by Jane Chastain. As a Bernie Sanders supporter who does not align himself to either political party, I wish to correct as many fallacies about Sen. Sanders and the progressive movement as this space allows. One need only to have listened to everything else that Sen. Sanders said during the debate with the intent to listen, rather than the intent to only reply, and you may understand why his message is catching fire for those who are wishing to truly change this country for the better. Bernie Sanders is not, nor has he ever been, here to attempt to force the government into every bit of our lives. One needs only to read the 11/5/15 article about him on NPR to correct Ms. Chastain’s over-simplifications of Sen. Sanders’ intentions. Ms. Chastain’s article states, “In the Socialist system. . . the government owns the means of production and control.” I quote the NPR article, “In the current U. S.,” he said, he did not see socialism as nationalization of steel mills but as the adoption of policies that have long been accepted

Ryan had put his foot down and said “No” to this deal, it never would have happened. Instead, Ryan blessed the deal by voting for it, along with all Democrats and a mere 78 of his Republican colleagues. Just hours before that vote on the budget deal, members of the Republican conference nominated Ryan to be their speaker, leaving members of the House Freedom Caucus, who promised to support him when the full House gathered for the final vote, wondering what happened. For all this talk about “turning the page” and beginning a “new day,” this budget debacle is a clear sign that nothing is going to change unless we, the voters, take it upon ourselves to clean this barn. That’s as it should be. Our Founding Fathers wisely left the purse strings in the hands of the House of Representatives because its members represent a much smaller number of people than do U.S. senators. Also, unlike senators, congressmen must stand for re-election every other year. That’s so we can hold them accountable – and we must! What good are Ryan and these 78 Republicans? They are traitors to the party and to the next generation

who will be left holding the bag for this excess. What good are those 17 Republican senators In 2010, Republicans told voters, “Give us the House of Representatives and things will be different.” We gave them the House but nothing changed. In 2014, Republicans told voters, “Just give us the Senate and things will be different.” We gave them the Senate and nothing changed. Now they are telling us to give them a Republican president and things will be different. It is little wonder voters aren’t buying it. Clearly, we can’t keep electing establishment politicians who have never held a real job for very long or at least one that didn’t depend on their political connections. One can only hope that voters will keep their resolve to elect someone president from the real world who will deal with this pack of thieves in Congress head on. Since 2010, there have been only two worthwhile accomplishments by the Boehner-led House of Representatives: the 2011 budget deal that put some modest restrains on spending and the refusal to reauthorize the Export-Import Bank, the poster

child for corporate welfare. Last week, Boehner managed to reverse both of these accomplishments. While most of the House leadership opposed reauthorization for Ex-Im, Boehner quietly encouraged supporters to file a little-used discharge petition, which forced a vote on Ex-Im to the floor. This vote was held Tuesday, Oct. 27, and 127 Republicans voted with all but one Democrat to reauthorize this outdated, wasteful monster. However, the biggest hypocrite is not in the House of Representatives. It’s Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. McConnell makes a big show of opposing Ex-Im. However, last summer, he engineered a vote to attach its reauthorization to the highway bill. Now, he’s trying to persuade members of the House to do the same. In other words, he wants to hide Ex-Im in a larger bill and hope voters will not notice that Republicans went along with Democrats to reward their big business cronies. We’re stuck with McConnell for another five years in the Senate, but he should be dumped, as Boehner was, from his leadership post. Save us from career politicians who are robbing us blind!

in other developed countries.” We may take from that that dissolving private ownership of all businesses is not his goal at all. In the same article, Sen. Sanders points out that Social Security is an example of a socialist program in our capitalist society. Not only is Social Security a socialist program in America, but so is our education system, our fire and police departments, most of our roads, and our Medicare/Medicaid, just to name a few departments and programs that we are all probably really happy to have and would not want to dismantle just because of the “S” word. Imagine the lunacy of allowing a capitalist

system to dictate, say, how our fire department functions, where they will not put out a fire if it does not turn a profit. Just as how one private ambulance ride can bankrupt an honest citizen, a house fire could do the same in that hypothetical example. It seems to me that the evils attributed to socialism may well be coming to realization through unchecked capitalism. Bernie Sanders has wide appeal for many other reasons. He has been comfortably elected in a rural state that is basically split down the middle politically because he appeals the American in us, not the politically polarized version of us. Most of us,

conservative and liberal, hate money in politics, and Bernie Sanders has proposed an amendment to get money out of politics, permanently. He walks his talk by also being the only main candidate, again of EITHER party, to not have a corrupt and shady SuperPAC. This alone makes him the only candidate on to support, Democrat or Republican. I will vote for Bernie Sanders next year, regardless of either party’s nominee, because he is the only person who has the ideas, ability, and integrity to truly change this nation for the better.

Well I am telling you, it doesn’t. As sure as I am sitting here typing this editorial, behaving like a bunch of spoiled, whiny children who aren’t getting their way or just as bad, acting like attention grabbing fools, only makes me want to check the other guys’ box on that ballot. Most of the recent behaviors I am seeing from these politicians just plain irritates me. I wouldn’t put up with it from my kids, friends or family, I certainly don’t want to see it from the people who are running for the presidency. Candidates in this presidential race need to have a little self-respect and carry themselves with a little bit of professionalism. Our president needs to be taken seriously, not be a laughing stock, People are either going to vote for you, or not. But hey, it’s only my opinion!

Rock Around the Decades while raising money for arts Kim Harris Managing Editor JDS Creative Academy’s Rock Around the Decades promises to be a fun-filled night while raising money for arts education, according to academy founder Diane Strand. The popular fundraiser is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 14 at the school located at 28069 Diaz Rd. Ste. D and E in Temecula. “Those in attendance will enjoy a great night out,” said Strand. A nonprofit 501 (c)(3), JDS Creative Academy creates programs and classes for visual and performing arts for those who need it for educational credit, creative enrichment and those interested in a career in creative arts, said Strand. “We have different classes in several different disciplines in visual and performing arts,” she said. The Academy is open to all ages

and all one needs to attend is a love of the arts. “Arts have always been a passion of mine,” Strand said. “My for profit business, is a video production company and we also run and actor’s studio and realized that there are many other disciplines or other creative visual performing arts that go along with that.” Strand said that whether its performing arts or the technical side of the field, such as script writing, set design or camera work and video production JDS provides the necessary opportunities for people to succeed, something they may not receive in a traditional school setting. “They don’t get those perks and creative enrichment things that they need to be well-rounded in their education,” she said. “With art there are different applications to everything you learn. If you learn

music, it teaches you math. If you learn scriptwriting, it teaches you literature. When you learn arts you get perspective, it does teach you math, it teaches you different things. It teaches you collaboration.” Art makes people better learners overall, Strand said. Fundraisers such as Rock Around the Decades are an important part to the business of nonprofits as well as for education and the arts, she said. “It is extremely important, we are able to offer scholarships to those who aren’t able to pay,” Strand said. “I do run an acting studio. It’s expensive and if you are going to break into this industry it does cost a lot of money and in that same vein, a lot of kids can’t do that, their families can’t afford that so we are able to offer scholarships to take these classes.” Other benefits to fundraising in-

cludes expanded budgets allowing schools such as JDS Creative Academy to purchase state-of-the-art equipment for use in the classroom. “We’ll be able to share that technology so kids can learn on computers and be able to learn digital media,” Strand said. “You just don’t learn art and drawing anymore, you have to be able to utilize digital media and put it into software and programs and the other technological advances that are coming forth. If we don’t have that kind of equipment we can’t teach off of it.” Rock Around the Decades will feature the Temecula Valley Music Awards’ 2014 Cover Band of the Year, Lifetime Rocker. Those in attendance will be treated to food and non-alcoholic drinks. A silent auction and raffle prizes will also be held. “We will have a full cash bar as

well,” Strand said. Ticket holders are encouraged to come out dressed in their favorite decade of fashion and all proceeds go to support programs and provide student scholarships for education and training in visual and performing arts. Tickets cost $30 and are on sale now with special pricing of buy one, get one free. A second special offers a $10 discount off one regular priced ticket. Tickets can be purchased online at Eventbrite using the keywords rock around the decades or by calling (951) 296-6715. Space is limited.

Temecula Valley Museum goes marbles for special exhibit TEMECULA – Do you remember playing marbles as a kid? You may have even collected marbles, as well. The Temecula Valley Museum guarantees its new exhibit by artist Carl Fisher will amaze visitors! Come to the museum to see these beautiful works of art and learn about the history of marbles in the exhibit The History and Art of Marbles on display from Nov. 7

through Jan. 17. The exhibit combines rare and historic marbles with marble artist Carl Fisher’s Polymer Clay creations. His original marbles are nothing like the common marbles you can buy in stores. The designs are carefully created by meticulously stretching, rolling, and forming the clay until the desired pattern is achieved. Fisher’s

collection of rare marbles and his colorful and artistic polymer clay versions have earned him the reputation as one of the most memorable artists of the 21st Century. In honor of The History and Art of Marbles Exhibit, the Temecula Valley Museum will offer a Marble Appraisal on Nov. 21 from 1-3 p.m. where visitors can bring their marbles to the museum and have Fischer identify and appraise their marbles. Make a Marble on Dec. 5, at 1 p.m. where visitors can join with Fischer as he teaches how to make your very own work of marble art. Handmade marbles make the

perfect holiday gift. Enjoy refreshments while you work. Marble Mania will be held on Jan. 9, 2016 at 1 p.m. where visitors can play marble games and win prizes.

‘Historic Winter’ photography by Fred Lamb at the Temecula Valley Museum TEMECULA – Anyone in Temecula or the surrounding areas on New Year’s Day of 2015, will remember waking up to the ground covered in snow. Local artist, Fred Lamb, captured those beautiful memories in photographs that will be on display in an exhibit entitled “Historic Winter” at the Temecula Valley Museum going on now. January 1, 2015 was not only a day to make memories, it was also a day to go down in history. Snow in Southern California is a rarity at

these low altitudes and the last time Temecula saw over seven inches of snow was in 1967. The Blizzard of the New Year is now considered the time where Temecula had the most amount of snow since that date. Come into the museum to see this historic and memorable day eternalized in Fred Lamb’s captivating photographs that show our beloved City of Temecula amidst one of the rarest occurrences of this past winter. Historic Winter: Photography by Fred Lamb will

be shown in our Rotunda Gallery through Jan. 17, 2016. For more information regarding this exhibit or any general information, call (951) 694-6450 or visit www.TemeculaMuseum.org. The Temecula Valley Museum in Sam Hicks Monument Park is located at 28314 Mercedes Street, one block east of Front Street in Old Town Temecula. Visit the museum Tuesday through Saturday 10 am to 4 p.m. or Sunday 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Fred Lamb’s exhibit focuses on the snowstorm that blanketed the Temecula Valley on New Year’s Eve last year.

Pechanga Pu’éska Mountain Day is a local holiday formally observed in the City of Temecula every November that reminds the

community of the culture of the Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians. The significance of the Pu’éska Mountain Day, officially deemed a holiday in November 2012, is when Pu’éska Mountain was reunited with its original Pechanga stewards. The holiday Proclamation echoes the story of how the community worked tirelessly for seven years to oppose the excavation and destruction of an environmentally and culturally sensitive mountain. The annual holiday is an opportunity to reflect on the profound ways in which the Pechanga Tribe, Temecula’s first citizens, has

shaped our community’s character and heritage. For more information on Pechanga Pu’éska Mountain Day, visit www.pechanga.net. For more information regarding this event or any general information, call (951) 694-6450 or visit www.TemeculaMuseum.org. The Temecula Valley Museum in Sam Hicks Monument Park is located at 28314 Mercedes Street, one block east of Front Street in Old Town Temecula. Visit the museum Tuesday through Saturday 10 am to 4 p.m. or Sunday 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

HOME & GARDEN / REAL ESTATE

Fall yard planning, fire features the perfect touch Ashley Ludwig Staff Writer On a chilly fall night, nothing says home and hearth like an outdoor fire feature. Traditionally, the fire pit is a place for people to gather, enjoy one another, toast marshmallows for s’mores or sip a delicious Temecula Valley wine with a backdrop of moon and stars. If you don’t have a fire pit but have considered planning for one, there are a few items to consider before you call in a professional. First, how much do you want to invest when building a fire feature? Second, what part of your yard would you place the fire feature – and how many guests will you need to accommodate. Third, what look are you planning—a more modern, or traditional wood burning fire pit? Investment, when it comes to building a fire pit can vary depending on costs of materials. Do it Yourself fire pit tutorials abound on Pinterest, using builder materials available at your local hardware or Home Depot store. If you are a DIY family, expect to invest a weekend on this project, and make sure you understand the legality of “No Burn Days” for your county going into fall and winter. If you are more of the mind to call in a professional, as Kay and Ed Rather of Temecula did when they called Aloha Landscape designer Billy Furlong, then the sky is the limit as far as design for your

Help your landscape survive drought TEMECULA – Drought is a serious condition that can impact landscapes and natural resources tremendously. Drought occurs when there is a serious shortage of water, due in part to lackluster precipitation combined with hot, arid weather. As early as March of this year, a large portion of the United States already was experiencing extreme drought and severe drought conditions, according to the National Climatic Data Center. The western coast of the United States as well as middle American states are notorious for drought conditions, but drought can occur anywhere should precipitation be scarce, particularly during the summer season. When droughts occur, restrictions often are placed on watering lawns or washing cars. People are urged to conserve water in any ways they can. It can be disconcerting to see all of one’s landscape dry up during a drought, and some homeowners wonder how they can preserve some of their plantings. The first step is to minimize or stop fertilization of lawns, says the University of Nebraska-Lincoln

Extension office. Fertilizers often can cause the lawn to use up more water, so hold off on fertilization until wetter conditions return. Homeowners also should keep their lawns mowed at a higher height than normal. Raising the mowing height can encourage the development of deeper roots in the grass. Taller grass also will shade the soil and roots, reducing, in some effect, the rate of evaporation. Watering smartly also can help. Underground irrigation systems will deliver water right to the roots of lawns and plants, rather than having the water settle on top. These types of systems reduce the amount of water that is wasted on sidewalks, driveways and other nonliving areas, because they’re specially laid out to deliver water where it’s needed. For those without such a system, keep sprinklers located only on green surfaces and turn down the pressure of the spray so water is not caught in the wind and blown elsewhere. Lawns do not need daily watering to thrive. If strict restrictions are placed on watering, heed them. Although the lawn will brown,

it can be revived. Lawns without adequate water will simply go dormant. When conditions improve, the lawn can bounce back. Homeowners may want to direct watering to delicate plants and trees that would benefit more from the water. In fact, many experts say that trees should get watering priority over lawns during droughts. To conserve water, homeowners can fill 5-gallon buckets with water and poke small holes in the bottom of the buckets so water can be delivered slowly and consistently to tree roots and garden beds. Drought can be a time of stress for many plants. Homeowners should reduce gardening efforts and disturbances as much as possible. Now is the time to curtail mowing, thatching, aerating, planting, and pruning. Let the landscape rest as it uses its energy to survive the harsh conditions. In addition to these management tips, homeowners can take precautionary measures against drought by choosing native, drought-tolerant plants and using mulch to keep the soil moist. Drought can be a time of stress for many plants.

Home & Garden / Real Estate

Is this holiday season a good time to buy a home? not the lowest they’ve ever been. I remember in 1981 interest rates for the best borrowers were at 18 percent, many paid as much as 21 percent for a home loan. Depending what report you read and what data is analyzed, an average mortgage rates today, are in the 4 percent range – not far above historic lows.

John Occhi & Mike Mason Special to Valley News

Rates are expected to rise It’s true that a year ago many predicted that 2015 was going to be a boom year for real estate and while prices have gone up, big increases never materialized. A year ago, many were predicting that Interest Rates would have climbed above 6 percent by this time. With that being said, the Mortgage Bankers Association is currently projecting that our Interest Rates, for a home loan, a year from now will be at 5.1 percent by the end of next year.

Should I buy a home now? Is this a good time to buy? What’s going to happen with the real estate market next year? What about Interest rates, are they going up or down? These are the same questions every real estate agent hears on a daily basis when talking with potential buyers. Depending on who the real estate agent is, their level of expertise, their understanding of the local market conditions, how closely they follow and understand the economic indicators that effect the housing market and perhaps most importantly what guides their moral compass, a buyer is likely to get many different answers to the same question. The long and short of it, there really are only two good times to buy real estate – five years ago and today. Since we can’t go back with our ‘would of, could of, should of” time machine, let’s focus of what we can control, that is the present, today.

Easier to qualify The inside joke amongst real estate agents and loan officers use to be that as long as an applicant could fog a mirror they qualified for a loan. Well, it will never be that easy again. After the collapse of our economy the pendulum swung to the other extreme making it near impossible for any but the most qualified individuals to obtain a home loan. Today, requirements are beginning to loosen up some as the pendulum started its journey back again. Both FICO credit score and loan-to-value standards have recently been relaxed.

Three questions First, you need to ask yourself three questions. Only you can determine if this is the right time. Do you want to buy a home? Are you in a financial position to buy a home? Is your credit profile sound enough so you can qualify for a loan? Answer no to any one of these very simple and basic questions and you may as well start reading another column because you’ll never buy a home as long as the answer to any of them remains no. However, if you can answer yes to all three questions, then consider the following:

First time buyer programs A First Time Buyer can qualify for an FHA Loan with only 3.5 percent down and a 620 FICO Credit Score. There are other programs, that come and go that will assist first time home buyers with down payments – some are outright grants!

Homes are affordable While they are not at the lowest point they’ve been in the last 10 years, they are still obtainable for most buyers. Consider you can still buy an existing home today for less than it would cost to build it new.

Less holiday competition There are far fewer buyers in the marketplace between October and January than any other time of the year, for a number of reasons. Regardless of the reason, less competition means you are less likely to compete with other buyers for the same home. Sellers are typically motivated, otherwise they would be waiting for the spring selling season – motivated sellers means a better negotiated price or other concessions.

Interest rates are low Rates, like real estate prices, are

waiting to get back in the market. Millions of families who lost their home to either a Short Sale or a Foreclosure are now starting to reenter the real estate market, after waiting a mandatory minimum three years before being able to qualify for a loan. These buyers are being called Boomerang Buyers and typically qualify for any First Time Buyer program being offered. The other frustrated buyer is the young professional of the Millennial Generation who moved back with their parents after graduating college, because of the uncertainty of the entire economy. They have saved money for a home and are ready to get out on their own and buy their first home. With more qualified buyers entering the market as potential buyers a bidding war scenario is very likely which will drive up purchase prices.

Cheery firelight and s’mores will bring smiles to all this holiday season, with the help of an outdoor fire pit or fireplace, whether you have a portable or permanent fire feature solution. Ashley Ludwig photos

FIRE from page C-1 yard,” Ed said. “It turned out just like I wanted.” On the other side of the yard, a smaller fire ring comes into play, where visitors can enjoy watching a golf game at their putting green while keeping warm on a chilly southern California night. “The fire ring is more for fun, for having s’mores with the grandkids,” Kay said. “We use it a great deal.” Building a fire pit, fire ring, or outdoor fireplace will add an air of festivity to any yard, according to Aloha Landscape’s Billy Furlong. It also increases the time one can be comfortable outside in the fall and winter seasons. Rehabilitating and maintenance of older fire features is also necessary, as fire rings will rust out over time, according to Furlong. Homeowners can also change the look of existing features by changing the fire ring’s façade. Calling in a professional, such as Aloha Landscape, to rehab or design and build your outdoor fire feature will increase your budget, but also your ability to build what you’ve imagined. The sky, and your personal budget, is the limit. When planning a fire feature around your yard’s space, consider the maximum number of guests you can conceive hosting, and whether you want a private, sunken, or open

fire pit. Seating is another item to consider, whether you prefer a built in bench, or plan on ringing your fire circle with Adirondack chairs or outdoor couches. The seating you choose should be in harmony with the overall look and feel of your fire feature. If you are planning on a gas fire pit, rather than wood burning, there are ways to change your look based upon the material you fill the fire ring with. Choose woodstyled logs for a traditional look. Tropical themed fire pits can be filled with volcanic stones for a Hawaiian tiki effect. Modern fire pits are often filled with fireproof “cannon balls,” round, concrete balls that can be stacked in place of logs. Finally, colored glass rock can fill a fire feature to capture

the glitter and glow of the firelight. Outdoor fire features will captivate your friends and family, and enhance any backyard this fall. Share your outdoor fire features with Valley News on Facebook. For more information on Aloha Landscape, visit www. alohalandscapeanddesign.com.

How to create extra space for guests TEMECULA – Homeowners who enjoy entertaining frequently sometimes host overnight guests. While many hosts and hostesses have spare bedrooms for overnight or long-term guests, many others do not. But those among the latter group willing to get a little creative can find more places for overnight guests to rest their heads. Sofa: Living room or den sofas can double as bedding for overnight guests. As a short-term solution, a night or two on the couch can be comfortable enough. Be sure to cover the sofa with freshly laundered sheets and provide those amenities one would expect in a guest space. Access to a television, a reading lamp, a fan for some white noise and a table on which to place a phone or alarm clock are helpful to have. Such items will make guests more comfortable. If your living room or family room has

a door that can be closed, this will help create more privacy for guests. Convertible bed: Marketed frequently under the brand name Murphy Bed, convertible beds can incorporate sleeping options into rooms with limited space. This furniture essentially is a bed that folds vertically or horizontally into a frame. When closed, the bed can look like a decorative storage closet or armoire. Some convertible beds come with bookcase accessories to expand storage space and also make the piece look like a more cohesive unit. Designers also have experimented with these beds, and some transform from a desk or even from a low-lying bookshelf or bench into a bed. Sofa bed or chair: Sofa beds and chairs have a fold-out bed nestled beneath their cushions. Depending on the size of the couch, a twin, full or queen-sized bed may be housed

within. Sofa beds vary in regard to their comfort levels, so prospective hosts should investigate their options to ensure guests have the most comfortable sleeping situations possible. A bed in a couch can turn an office or living space into a guest sanctuary in a matter of minutes. In addition, some sofa beds also have extra space built within for storing blankets and pillows. Many popular furniture retailers offer couch brands that can be equipped with a bed. And if space is especially tight, consider a convertible chair that has a twin-sized bed tucked away. Bunk beds: Bunk beds may seem like child’s play, but they make great use of vertical space. Share a kid’s room with your son or daughter and let the guest take your own bedroom. Otherwise, equip a home office with bunk beds and have two more sleeping spaces available.

Invest in a sofa bed and you will always have an extra spot for overnight guests to use. Courtesy photo

Accommodating guests when you don’t have a guest bedroom can take some creativity, but those willing to

think outside the box can find options that don’t compromise guests’ comfort.

Countertop options abound

Countertop options are varied and available at every price point, giving homeowners an easy way to upgrade kitchens.

TEMECULA – Many things in a kitchen contribute to giving this popular room its personality. Appliances and choice of cabinets go a long way toward crafting that look, but perhaps nothing defines a kitchen more than a homeowner’s choice of countertops. Countertops are where the action takes place in a kitchen. It’s where meals are prepared and where hungry houseguests or curious kids watch the family chef whip up the night’s meal. The options with regard to countertop surfaces are numerous, and the following are just a few of the more popular options homeowners planning to replace their existing surfaces might want to consider.

substrate, laminate countertops are water-resistant but not very heatresistant, so homeowners will want to place any hots pans, pots or baking sheets on trivets to maintain the laminate. Many homeowners prefer laminate countertops because they are available in so many colors, meaning they can match any homeowner’s preferences, no matter how colorful those preferences are. Cutting on laminate countertops is not recommended, but such surfaces are easy to clean and maintain. Quartz Quartz is among the most durable countertop surfaces available, as it is resistant to bacteria, heat, stains, and water. Though quartz is not available in as many shades as laminate, it is similarly easy to clean. Also like laminate countertops, quartz surfaces tend to have easily visible seams, which may irk homeowners who find such minor imperfections an eyesore. Quartz countertops can be expensive depending on the amount of surface area a kitchen has, so budget-conscious homeowners with especially large kitchens may

find quartz countertops bust their budgets. Granite The natural beauty of granite is what draws many homeowners to install this popular surface material in their kitchens. Thanks to their unique shading and tone, granite countertops are never the same from one home to the next, and granite complements many different cabinet colors. Granite also is resistant to heat, scarring and, when sealed properly, stains. Granite is naturally porous, so if it is not sealed properly, it can harbor bacteria. Some granite countertops must be sealed annually, while some pretreated countertops can go as long as 15 years without a need for resealing. Unlike other countertop surface materials, granite, which is among the most expensive countertop materials, does not come in a vast array of colors, so homeowners should expect to choose from just 20 or so color options. Recycled glass Homeowners who want to give

their kitchens a modern and ecofriendly feel may want to consider recycled glass countertops. Recycled glass countertops, the majority of which are now produced with 80 to 90 percent post-consumer glass, are made of pieces of glass that are held together with cement binders. Some might be concerned that countertops made of recycled glass are not very strong, but the cement binders are very hard, making the countertops durable, strong and unlikely to chip or crack. Recycled glass countertops come in various colors and are resistant to both heat and stains. Installation of recycled glass countertops can be tricky as improper installation can lead to stress points that make the glass susceptible to cracking. As a result, the installation of recycled glass countertops is best left to professionals with experience on such projects. Recycled glass countertops can be quite expensive as well. A homeowner’s choice of countertop surface material can go a long way toward defining the personality of his or her kitchen, so homeowners should consider their options before making a final decision.

Mother Daughter tea inspires philanthropy in attendees

Sporting their newly designed tea hats, mothers and daughters enjoy the Temecula Valley National Charity Taryn Murphy photo League’s annual Mother Daughter Tea on Sunday, Nov. 8.

Taryn Murphy Valley News Intern Pinky up, or pinky down? What is a proper “tea dress?” Does one eat a bite-sized sandwich in one bite, or two? At the Temecula Valley National Charity League’s annual Mother Daughter Tea, members en-

joyed a taste of “high-society” tradition, fancy hats and flowy dresses included. On Sunday, Nov. 8, the league held a traditional tea for its motherdaughter members, featuring keynote speaker Gillian Larson, previous contestant on the reality TV show “Survivor, Gabon” and organizer of

the annual Temecula Reality Rally. As attendees munched on French macarons and sipped tea, Larson spoke about the importance of believing in yourself to achieve your dreams. “Dream it. Believe it. Prepare for it. Do it,” she said, sharing her life motto which served as inspiration for

her appearance on “Survivor.” Before the event itself, the girls and their mothers hand-crafted tea hats to sport at the luncheon, featuring sparkles, feathers and decals in colorful arrangements. But the National Charity League does more than serve a delicious tea to its well-dressed members. Since the early 1900s, the organization has been working to provide philanthropic opportunities for mothers and their daughters. The league began in Los Angeles, when local women serving the community realized a need to teach their daughters the same skills. Now, the National Charity League spans across the United States with roughly 56,000 members and over 200 chapters. In addition to organizing outreaches for its members, the league teaches 7th through 12th grade daughters how to develop leadership traits, converse comfortably with grown-ups, and to be empowered. It also has special monikers for its members, dubbing mothers “patronesses” and daughters “tick-tockers.” Britta Kandola, press release

liaison and newsletter editor for the Temecula Valley chapter, said it is her and her daughter’s first year in the group. Still, she is already seeing the timeless benefits unique to the league. “If you try to find philanthropies for a mother and daughter, some don’t allow children under age of 15,” she said. The National Charity League seeks to overcome these obstacles for younger girls by providing similar opportunities with core lessons of generosity and compassion. Inspired by Gillian Larson’s motivating speech, the girls and their mothers left the tea with full hearts and full stomachs, looking forward to next year’s tea. Until then, they continue to expand on efforts to give back to their community, something the National Charity League plans to foster for years to come.

‘Laptop Lunches’ serve up education for Menifee business owners and residents alike Kim Harris Managing Editor Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce’s new Laptop Lunch Series is another way to engage the community while taking care of business, according to Membership Director Joan Ring. “It’s just another means of networking,” Ring said. “It is to involve the community and is a community effort as well.”

Held every other Thursday at the chamber offices, located at 29737 New Hub Dr. Ste. 102 in Menifee, the Laptop Lunch Series covers a wide range of topics and is open to both members and nonmembers alike, Ring said. “Every other week we have a member that gives a presentation on a topic of interest,” she said, adding that the most recent presenter was a legal analyst. “The week before we had an attorney here who was talking

about workplace legalities.” Upcoming speakers include a financial advisor, a speaker from the medical field and many more. “The topics do vary,” she said. “Whoever is interested, if they are members, can come for no charge and if they are not a member they can pay $20.” Ring said the event is publicized through the chamber’s newsletter and Facebook page and the event is booked through March of 2016.

Chamber members are invited to come out and share their knowledge with members of the community. “It’s for members who want to come out and share their knowledge with the other members and whomever wants to attend,” she said. The event also helps to boost membership in the chamber. “Once they get the opportunity to meet with our members and meet with the community, a lot of them do join the chamber so it is beneficial to

the chamber as well,” she said. The next Laptop Lunch will be held on Thursday, Nov. 19 at noon.

New and Improved Skybox Bella’s Pizza Villa holds ribbon cutting Grill & Tavern offers something for everyone

Skybox Grill & Tavern owner Darci Castillejos pours a cold beer for a Kim Harris photo customer.

Trevor Montgomery Writer Darci Castillejos is doing big things in French Valley. The owner of the French Valley Café and now, her new and improved Skybox Grill & Tavern, Castillejos, with more than 20 years of experience in the industry, will soon hold a grand re-opening at the Skybox. Located in the French Valley Village Center, at 30724 Benton Rd C-308, in the unincorporated area of Murrieta, the Skybox Grill & Tavern is perfectly located to attract visitors from throughout Temecula, Murrieta and Menifee, as well as surrounding communities such as Hemet and the San Jacinto valley. The Skybox Grill & Tavern’s Grand re-opening takes place on Saturday, Nov. 14. The re-launch is timed to coincide with the highly anticipated UFC 193 Title Fight between Ronda “Rowdy” Rousey and Holly Holm as the main event. With Mixed Martial Arts fights gaining popularity and an ever growing and faithful following, Castillejos listened to what her customers were saying they wanted to see and added a more enhanced schedule to include more major MMA fights. In addition to her intention of offering several major upcoming UFC matches, football games, baseball games and other major sporting events, Castillejos’ plans also include offering special days and events like possible holiday inspired themes, an upcoming New Year’s Eve party and even specially designated ladies’ nights. Castillejos has made plenty of changes to improve the customers’ experience since taking over Skybox in September, complete interior renovations and all updated and upgraded features – including new paint, new flooring throughout and new furniture – are all intended to ensure Skybox’s guests are as comfortable and happy as possible, while maintaining a hometown atmosphere.

Castillejos said Skybox has upgraded their televised event capabilities by increasing the number of big screen televisions to eight, and upgraded their televised sports subscriptions to ensure that guests will be able to see the sporting events better than ever before. Castillejos was quick to point out that through all the changes, Skybox has remained open, continuing to lure both its regular customers as well as new customers on a weekly basis. Skybox’s regular weekly lineup includes Wednesday night Karaoke from 7 -11 p.m., live DJ’s on Friday night from 9 p.m. – 1 a.m., and on Saturdays, customers enjoy live music from 8 p.m. until midnight. There is enough room to enjoy dancing to some of the great music Skybox has lined up for the coming months. Mondays and Thursdays will remain reserved for football. Customers can not only expect to see a different Skybox Grill & Tavern come Nov. 14, they can expect to taste four entirely new entrees, as well as the Skybox’s highly acclaimed burgers, appetizers and other customer favorites. Castillejos explained how the chefs at Skybox have always been known for their hand-crafted burgers. Each of Skybox’s burgers are made from freshly ground beef, seasoned and formed by hand and then cooked to order. Skybox will continue to offer appetizers, some old, some new. A wide variety of mouth-watering sandwiches will also be offered. As for beers, Castillejos said Skybox Grill & Tavern will continue to offer Coors Light and Bud Light on tap. Additionally, Skybox has reserved two tabs for local breweries such as the two currently being served, Refuge Blood Orange Wit from Temecula and Stone IPA. Skybox Grill & Tavern’s grand re-opening will be held on Saturday, Nov. 14 beginning at 11 a.m. For more information, call (951) 325-2299.

Very few jobs today are forever. Company changes may be threatening your job or it might be that while your company and job is secure, it isn’t work that has you feeling satisfied, fulfilled or happy. You might be facing “job burnout,” when it’s time to move on. Realizing that you have to go job hunting, whether it’s your decision or one that’s been forced on you, can be a frightening experience, but it doesn’t have to be. The secret is simply to learn to make the most of the situation, or, as many people have put it, to look at it as an opportunity. While job hunting often is stressful, there are a number of things you can do to make the process easier and more productive. It’s generally advised to start your job hunt while still working at your old job, if possible. Employers tend to look more favorably on candidates who are still employed, plus you’ll experience less pressure and stress as long as you still have that current job. A key, however, is not to tell your current fellow employees that you’re job hunting since that almost ensures that your current work environment will suffer. There are several things you can and should do before beginning that job search. Start off by by taking a self-inventory. What are your interests, current skills and overall experience? Do you enjoy your current field of employment or would

you be happier if your work life headed in a whole new direction? If the latter is the choice, what skills and interests could you bring to a new job? Is there training that you might need to head into that new field? Would you relocate to a different town or state for a new job? An important question for many is whether they wish to continue working for someone else, or are they willing to take the risk of starting their own business. If facing such questions and selfanalysis seems a bit overwhelming you might consider meeting with a professional counselor who specializes in career counseling, guiding people to identify for themselves what might be the best new direction for them. If you visit the American Counseling Association website at www.counseling.org, the “Find a Counselor” link at the top of the page will direct you to websites to help you locate counselors in your area offering career and employment counseling.

Supremes won’t delay home healthcare wage hike rule WASHINGTON, DC – The Supreme Court has refused to grant the delay of a new Labor Department rule that is likely to have a serious impact on the elderly and home-bound. The rule will go into effect in a few weeks, according to Dan Weber, president of the Association of Mature American Citizens. The home healthcare industry had asked the high court to stay the regulation requiring a hike in wages for “companionship workers,” those who help the elderly and disabled live in their own homes rather than in a nursing home. The industry still seeks a Supreme Court appeal of a lower court decision that okayed the pay hikes. In the meantime, the cost of companionship care will increase sharply, making it even harder for those who most need it to afford the cost. “Home healthcare workers deserve a living wage but aging, disadvantaged Americans also deserve the help they need to live their daily lives in their own homes. Making matters worse is the fact that the ruling comes on the heels of reductions in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements for home healthcare services,” Weber noted. Whether or not the Supreme

Court agrees to hear the industry’s appeal is uncertain, leaving millions of older and incapacitated individuals wondering how they will cope in the coming years. The Visiting Nurse Service of New York, in a recent statement, called for a new focus on the issue. “Until we agree, as a country, that the services provided by America’s Home Health Aides are worth finding the extra Medicare and Medicaid dollars to pay them what they deserve, then we will continue to suffer the negative consequences of piecemeal measures.” Weber pointed out that the average age of Medicare home healthcare beneficiaries is 82 and two-thirds of them live below the federal poverty level. They have chronic illnesses such as heart disease, COPD and diabetes. They live mostly in rural parts of the country where access to alternative care is limited and significantly more expensive. “They are Medicare’s oldest, sickest and poorest beneficiaries and the majority of them are women. Meanwhile, the home healthcare sector, an industry with more than half a million employees will be devastated. In fact, the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid

Services says that some 5,000 home healthcare companies will go out of business by 2017,” he said.

Abby Reinke Elementary School to hold 7th annual Turkey Trot TEMECULA – The Abby Reinke Elementary School PTA is hosting its annual Turkey Trot 5k Run/Walk on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2015. More than 300 runners and walkers will take to the streets of Temecula’s beautiful Paseo del Sol community for the family fun run.

The community is invited to join the trot; $10 for children 13 and under, $20 for ages 14 and older. Breakfast is included in the cost of the race.

Weber called on Congress to recognize the urgency of dealing with what he called “an intoler-

able situation that has far reaching consequences for the elderly and for the nation as a whole.”

Mckinley Ross (4) takes a strong hit from CHS’s Jaime Hernandez. Ross helped the Rams win by scoring once and running a total of 135 Amanda Schwarzer photo yards in the game against the Pumas.

Dean Fioresi Sportswriter After ten exciting weeks, the regular season is finally over, with the best teams moving on to the playoffs. The Southwestern League saw its three top teams move on; Vista Murrieta, Murrieta Valley and Great Oak. Vista is making their 10th straight appearance in the CIF Southern Section playoffs, following yet another undefeated Southwestern League season. The Sunbelt League also has three teams on their way to the first round of the playoffs in the Inland Division, with Heritage, Elsinore and Paloma Valley ready to play this Friday. Linfield Christian found their way to the playoffs for the ninth straight year, as they prepare to take part in the CIF Northwest Division bracket. In the eight-man leagues, Cornerstone Christian has already played

their first game, while California Lutheran prepares for their first round matchup. Southwestern League As we’ve grown accustomed to, the Vista Murrieta Broncos (9-1) stormed through the Southwestern League on their way to another playoff berth, their 10th in 11 years of football. Now ranked as the No. 19 team in California, Vista was a force to be reckoned with this season, extending their regular season-SWL winning streak to 35 games this season. Over the last five games, the Broncos couldn’t be stopped, scoring 234 points and allowing just 75. Given the No. 2 seed in the West Valley Division, the team is set to take on El Toro High School (5-5), this Friday at home at 7:30 p.m. For the first time in three years the Murrieta Valley Nighthawks (8-2), ranked No. 53 in California, also make their way into the playoffs, following an unexpectedly

JP Raineri Sports Editor In true Great Oak fashion, the boys’ and girls’ teams once again proved why they are best in the Southwestern League by sweeping their third straight league meet on Nov. 5. at the Diamond Valley Lake course in Hemet. With the win, the Wolfpack boys captured their 3rd straight league title, while the girls raced their way to their 8th consecutive SWL title. Emily Clause led the way for the Wolfpack girls, who had runners place in the top five positions and beat second place Vista Murrieta by more than 45 points. Clause ran the course in 17:31.4, almost 45 seconds faster than any of her league counterparts as Alison Cling would be the first non-Great Oak runner to cross the finish line in 6th place with a course time of 18:16.5. Sydney Belus, Taylor Walker, Kyleigh Macy and Michelle McIntosh rounded off the top five from Great Oak, helping seal the 89:21minute victory. Chaparral, Murrieta Valley, Temecula Valley and Murrieta Mesa rounded out the remainder of the

In the boys’ race, Nelson Quintana of Great Oak, the varsity boys league champion, took the race with a time of 15:11.3 with teammate, sophomore Gavin Korby, finishing in second and Edgard Villa of Vista Murrieta coming in third. Great Oak, with their 3rd consecutive league title, won the race scoring 21 points with a time of 77:47.

Vista Murrieta placed second with Chaparral, Murrieta Mesa, Murrieta Valley and Temecula Valley rounding off the standings.

Kinnett wins Trailer Figure 8, overall Night of Destruction championships Joe Naiman Writer This year Perris Auto Speedway implemented season points for the track’s Night of Destruction races. The first points championship to be decided was the Trailer Figure 8 title, and on Sept. 5 Ryan Kinnett won both the season’s final Trailer Figure 8 race and the division championship. Because of a pair of Oct. 10 Demo Cross races at the Southern California Fair, the Demo Cross championship and the overall Iron Man Championship were not decided until that night, but Kinnett won the first of those two fair races and finished high enough in the second race to earn the overall Iron Man Championship. Kinnett, a 2006 Paloma Valley High School graduate who moved from Menifee to Nuevo four years ago, had 888 combined points for the season’s Trailer Figure 8, Figure 8, and Demo Cross races. Menifee

driver Ken McWilliams, who also graduated from Paloma Valley High School, took second in the final overall standings with 828 points. David Holmes of Norco had the third-place total of 555 points. “It feels really good to be crowned the first-time Iron Man champion,” Kinnett said. Kinnett won the Trailer Figure 8 championship after compiling 267 points for the season. McWilliams finished second with 249 points and Holmes was third with 225 points. Kinnett finished second in the Demo Cross final standings with 381 points. Jim Schoening of San Diego was the Demo Cross season champion with 396 points while McWilliams was third with 318 points. Kinnett was third in the Figure 8 final season standings with 240 points; Norco driver Earl Cox won the championship with 273 points and McWilliams accumulated 261 points for second place.

The Figure 8 and Trailer Figure 8 championships were decided after the Sept. 5 races. The Trailer Figure 8 race, whose rules require the trailer to remain connected to the driver’s car, preceded the regular Figure 8 main event so the Trailer Figure 8 class was the first to finalize a season champion. Kinnett began the 20-lap race on the outside of the fourth row and was eighth after the completion of the first lap, but he took over second from Tim Lewis during the eighth lap. McWilliams, who had taken the lead in the fourth lap, made contact with Holmes during the 11th lap which allowed Kinnett to take the lead. “It was pretty wild,” Kinnett said. McWilliams fell back and eventually finished fifth while Holmes crossed the finish line in fourth place. Anthony Guisa moved into second, but Kinnett kept ahead of Guisa for the race win as well as the championship. “That was kind of cool to be able to get both of them right then and there,” Kinnett said of winning the main event and the season championship simultaneously. The Trailer Figure 8 race win was Kinnett’s second of the season; he had also won the June 6 race. Kinnett finished fifth in the season’s final regular Figure 8 race, foregoing a start on the pole position and third place at the end of the first lap for a finish in the 20-lap race and preservation of his car for the Demo

Cross main event. The Sept. 5 Demo Cross feature ended with Kinnett in sixth place. Because Perris Auto Speedway is part of the Lake Perris Fairgrounds, the Southern California Fair takes over the facility in early October but incorporates the track into fair activities. The first weekend of the fair saw monster trucks on the track, and on Oct. 10 Demo Cross races were held both in the early afternoon and the evening.

“I was actually pretty worried about the fair race,” Kinnett said. “It’s the last race, so people go out there to destroy their cars.” During both 2013 and 2014, Kinnett finished the afternoon Demo Cross but not the night race. “It’s pretty cutthroat out there for the race. The past two years my fair experience was pretty bad,” he said. Both Demo Cross races were 20

Vista Murrieta HS Band captures second in 5A contest MURRIETA – Vista Murrieta High School Band and Guard captured second place in the 5A division at the Western Band Association’s Mission Viejo Invitational field show competition on Oct. 31. Eighteen other high schools from California and Arizona performed at the event, with six schools total competing in the 5A division. Vista Murrieta performed its field show, “Legend,” an epic tale of valor, love, strife and ultimately victory. Set in the Middle Ages, in a time of chivalry, magic and passion, Legend evokes a full range of emotion, from the deepest, darkest of places to a bright, cloudless and emotional conclusion. The previous weekend, Vista Murrieta earned third place at the Bands of America (BOA) Regional competition in Long

Beach. The BOA Long Beach competition attracted 19 bands from Southern California, Arizona, Nevada and Texas. Ayala High School of Chino Hills placed first in the competition, while Upland High School was awarded second. Vista Murrieta and Ayala scored equally in the Visual Performance category, with both schools receiving a caption award for the category. The Mission Viejo Invitational event marks the fourth in a series of field show competitions for Vista Murrieta. The band and color guard placed second in its division at both the Tournament of Gold on Oct. 10 and the Ayala High School Music in Motion event on Oct. 17. The ensemble will compete at the RCC Big Orange Classic on Nov. 14. The group’s competitive season will culminate with the Western Band Association’s Championships the

Educators Association recognizes Standout Principals

Pictured from left with TVEA President Jeff Kingsberg are outstanding school principals: Keith Moore, Great Oak High School; Anna Tapley, French Valley Elementary School: Kevin Groepper, Vail Ranch Courtesy photo Middle School: and Chris Dixon, Ysabel Barnett Elementary School.

TEMECULA – The Temecula Valley Educators Association honored four outstanding Temecula Valley Unified School District principals based on the results of last spring’s survey results. Each spring TVEA seeks input from members at each site in terms of principal effectiveness. Principals

are scored and provided feedback in such areas as instructional leadership, school culture, and collaboration. The TVEA Executive Board elected to recognize the honorees at a 2015-16 fall school board meeting. Those honored at the executive board meeting were: Great Oak High School Principal

Keith Moore, who is a first time honoree is highly respected by those he leads at Great Oak. A teacher commented that, “Keith rolls with emotional stability and stays focused on what is best for students and staff. He is genius in his approach to school culture.” French Valley Elementary School

Principal Anna Tapley, received her second consecutive award from TVEA. She has gained the admiration of her staff at French Valley. As one staff member said, “You make each of us feel valued and we know you respect and support us. You point out qualities in me that I may not see or pay attention to. Thank you for turning our school into a family”. Vail Ranch Middle School Principal Kevin Groepper earned his sixth recognition from his staff since the survey was first conducted in 2006-07. A Vail Ranch staff member commented that, “He is an excellent administrator who encourages me to be the best I can be and keep growing. He is approachable, always

remains calm, and helps us figure out a solution to our problem.” Ysabel Barnett Elementary School Principal Chris Dixon received his seventh award on behalf of his staff. He creates a positive learning and working environment as an instructional leader. One staff member gave Dixon the highest praise saying, “He leads by example – the morale at Barnett is sky high. Move over Disneyland. Barnett Elementary is the happiest place on earth for children.” The Temecula Valley Educators is the exclusive representative of the 1,365 teachers, counselors, and specialists who serve students in the Temecula Valley Unified School District.

Inland Empire alumni making waves in college

Su’a Cravens of TVHS and VMHS, currently in his third year as a safety/outside linebacker for the USC Trojans, could be a firstround draft pick in the upcoming NFL draft.

Jeremy Castro, VMHS ’12, makes a tackle during a game against Ohio State University.

Cadie Bates, GOHS ’13, goes for the kill during a game with Duke University.

Dean Fioresi & JP Raineri Sportswriters The Inland Empire is a big place, meaning that talent is bound to pop up from time to time. However, the NCAA has recently seen a huge influx of players come out of the Inland Empire, most specifically the Southwestern League. Several football players have made names for themselves with prominent college teams, showing how talented of a league the Southwestern League really is. Su’a Cravens, of Temecula Valley High School and Vista Murrieta High School, has established himself as a household name in many circles as a safety/outside linebacker for the USC Trojans. Cravens is in his third year at USC, and is considered to be an All-American candidate, as well as a candidate for the Butkus, Lombardi, Bednarik, Nagurski and Lott Awards, all prestigious awards presented to the best college football defensive players. At this point in his career, many think that Cravens could be a first-round draft pick in the upcoming NFL draft. Jeremy Castro, also out of Vista Murrieta, has earned himself a spot on the starting defensive rotation at the University of Hawaii. In his second full year with the team, Castro, who transferred from UCLA after one semester, is starting at outside linebacker for the Rainbow Warriors. Nick Stevens, yet another Vista Murrieta product, finds himself as the starting quarterback for Colorado State, ranking second in the Mountain West in both passing yards and touchdowns. Stevens, now a sophomore, faced Boise State earlier this season, where he got matched up against one of his former teammates, Tyler Rausa. Rausa, once again, out of Vista Murrieta, is the starting place kicker for Boise State, and has made 15 of his 17 attempted field goals this season, making him the second highest scoring player on the Boise State roster. Also on the Boise State roster, is Skyler Seibold, out of Chaparral High School. Seibold, a redshirt freshman, has starting making appearances for the team on special teams plays. Jacob Wallace, a freshman biology education major from Murrieta is also a student-athlete at Central Methodist University, where he is an offensive lineman on the football team. CMU is located in Fayette, Mo. and is a member of the Heart of America Athletic Conference in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. But football isn’t the only sport the Southwestern League thrives in, volleyball is considered to be one of the league’s strongest sports. Cadie

Most recently Bates led a charge against NC State, securing a much needed victory for the Blue Devils. Along with volleyball, the Southwestern League has almost too many baseball alumni to count, but most notably, David Groh, of Chaparral ’13, has solidified himself as a force on the University of the Cumberlands baseball team and diving

team. Recently, Groh finished as the top diver for Cumberlands, with a score of 105.5 in his One Meter dive competition. These are just a few of the noteworthy alumni from an outstanding Southwestern League conference. Many more are out there, making differences at their respective colleges, hoping to make their way onto the next level.

High School Girls Tennis: CIF playoffs in full swing Dean Fioresi & JP Raineri Sportswriters The Murrieta Valley Nighthawks, the No. 1 seed from the Southwestern League, kicked off the Division 2 Southern Section playoffs on a high note early last week, sweeping Burroughs High School 18-0, which the highest possible score in tennis. Jovana Kuljanin, Alana Andrews and Faith Pearson combined for a 9-0 start after sweeping their opponents by a combined score of 54-1. The Nighthawks doubles teams then went on to sweep the girls from Burroughs, as Kelsey Lajom and Ashley Nishimoto, Shruti Amini and Audra Gorria, Brooke Cornelius and Elise Seyarto and Brooke Cornelius and Nadya Abelsky all dominated their opponents on their way to a perfect victory. Not only did the girls take out Santa Monica during round two action on Friday, Nov. 6, by a score of 11-7, they also took down Cate (Carpinteria, CA) in the quarterfinals 14-4 on Monday, Nov. 9. In singles, Jovana Kuljanin won 7-5, 6-0, 6-0, Alana Andrews was victorious 6-3, 6-0, 6-0 and Faith Pearson won 6-1, 6-0, and 6-0. For the MV Doubles, Kelsey Lajom and Ashley Nishimoto won 6-3, 6-2, 6-4, Shruti Amin and Audra Gorria put up a good fight but dropped two of the three they played 2-6, 3-6, 6-1, and Brooke Cornelius and Elise Seyarto had similar results, losing 2-6, 0-6, 6-2. The Temecula Valley Golden Bears, 2015 Southwestern League Champions, moved on to the second round of the playoffs, after defeating Beverly Hills High School by a score of 14-4. On Friday, Nov. 6, the Golden Bears took on Arroyo Grande at home, defeating the Eagles in the second round, 10-8,

but fell to Sage Hill in the quarterfinals, bringing their successful season to an end. Vista Murrieta also made the first round of playoffs after playing into the first round as a Wild Card. To do so they had to beat Burbank High School, earning their spot, but unfortunately they couldn’t pull through against Troy High School in round one, falling 14-4. The Linfield Christian Lions also took part in a wild card play-in game for the Division 4 Playoffs, but fell short against Arlington, 17-1. Three Sunbelt League teams played in the First Round of the Division 5 CIF Southern Section Playoffs last weekend, with both Temescal Canyon and Heritage making it through the Wild Card Round; Temescal Canyon emerged victorious over Twenty-Nine Palms

High School, and Heritage defeated Beaumont High. After the play-in round though, Heritage would fall in a close match to Maranatha High, by a score of 10-8. Temescal Canyon has continued to upset their first two opponents, storming to a 13-5 victory over Ramona High, and blowing out Foothill Tech, 16-2 in the Second Round at home on Friday, Nov. 6. Quarterfinal action for the Titans continues this week against Magnolia. Elsinore, the Sunbelt’s No. 1 seed, took the First Round by storm, earning a victory over their opponent, Katella High School, but lost a heartbreaking next match to Alta Loma High on the road. The road to the CIF-SS finals ends at the Claremont Club on Friday, Nov. 13. Be sure to follow all the action with the Valley News.

Top hitting instructor to host hitting clinic JP Raineri Sports Editor On Saturday, Nov. 21, Victory Athletics will be hosting a 1-day Hitting Camp featuring local hitting instructor Rich Krzysiak. Krzysiak, who has served as one of the premier instructors in the valley for many years, spending countless hours training some of today’s top athletes in the world of baseball and softball, is returning from a battle he has been successfully fighting with cancer. “Rich has been affluent in helping so many hitters in the valley and we just wanted to show our appreciation to him by bringing as many hitters as we can to this event so they can learn from one of the best,” says Victory Athletics trainer, Garret Nelson. The event will take place from

KINNETT from page D-2 laps. Kinnett began the afternoon race on the inside of the sixth row. “The track was pretty nice. It was a warm day,” he said. “It started out pretty wet, but it dried up pretty quick.” The track is watered down prior to the race to minimize dust. The heat which allowed the moisture to dry quickly also threatened to overheat the engine of Kinnett’s 1973 El Camino. “I was in the red and I wasn’t sure if I should pull off or not. I kept going and I’m glad I did,” he said. Pulling off would have resulted in a lower final position in the first race but would have reduced the risk of a blown engine which would have eliminated Kinnett for the second race. “It was kind of a gut feeling to keep going,” he said. On the final turn of the race Kinnett passed McWilliams for Kinnett’s only lead of the night. “As we were coming through the checkered flag I passed Kenny,” Kinnett said. The El Camino was in condition to run the evening race. The start was inverted from the first race, giving Kinnett a 13th-row beginning. He still gained enough positions to be in fourth place when the checkered flag was thrown. “I gave it all I had. I got into trouble a few times,” he said.

“I’m pretty happy with fourth. I’m happy I finished,” he said. “It’s kind of better to stay out of trouble and finish than try to win and take yourself out and not finish at all.” Kinnett’s father, Bernie Hruska, competed in Figure 8 races at the Ascot Park track in the 1980s. Hruska currently serves as Kinnett’s crew chief. “If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t be doing it,” Kinnett said. Paul Ausdale joined Hruska on Kinnett’s pit crew. “I learned a lot from them guys,” Kinnett said. Hruska used the team name “Wrecking Crew”, and that name continues with Kinnett. The Wrecking Crew team also includes drivers David Holmes and Dennis Holt. The Wrecking Crew is one of Kinnett’s sponsors along with Local 364 in Colton and Botkin Designs in Nuevo. The 2015 Night of Destruction season included five non-fair nights with Figure 8, Trailer Figure 8, and Demo Cross races. Kinnett also won the July 25 Demo Cross main event. “It was a rough year. It really was. There were a lot of new cars this year. It was a tough season,” Kinnett said. The El Camino can be raced next year, although Kinnett plans to have two racecars so that any contact from Figure 8 races will not prevent him from racing later that night. “I’m going to have a separate car for regular Figure 8,” he said.

The Zombie Run, an ominous success at Twin Creek Ranch Carlos A. Bazan-Canabal Writer It was a cold night down Highway 79 near Aguanga as hundreds of cars converged upon Twin Creek Ranch for the Temecula Zombie Run 2015 on Saturday, Nov. 7. As people huddled by fire barrels to keep themselves warm, music blared throughout the venue. Participants from Riverside and San Diego counties were greeted, their documentation and waivers checked, and then referred to the appropriate check in and registration points. There, zombies were given a red glowing bracelet and instructed to proceed to the makeup tent, while human runners were directed to the green, military tent with their green bracelet and runner number. At the tent, they received swag for the race. At the waiting area, next to the finish line, visitors could see the live coverage of the undergoing zombie invasion around the world, the theme around which the run would take place. It was the stuff horror movies were made of as Temecula was portrayed as the last surviving human camp in a world overrun with the undead. The goal, to run through a three-mile course infested with zombies without being killed, eaten or worst of all infected with by the zombie virus. By 5:30 p.m. the first batch of runners armed with costumes,

FOOTBALL from page D-1 playoffs, following yet another Temecula City Championship, their second in a row. Unfortunately for them, they will be without senior running back Demetric Felton, who has missed the last two games due to injury. Taking his place is the more than capable Junior Palmore, who has filled the spot efficiently, rushing for over 300 yards and two touchdowns in Felton’s absence. The Wolfpack will hit the road this Friday, as they prepare to take on Tesoro High School (8-2) this Friday at 7:30 p.m. Temecula Valley, Chaparral and Murrieta Mesa will look to the off season for rebuilding. Murrieta Mesa had its best season ever, as the newest member of the Southwestern League school’s finished in fourth place, picking up their first two league wins ever this year, taking out the Pumas and Golden Bears, potentially sending a message that their program is quickly becoming a force to reckoned with. Sunbelt League Heritage High (10-0) has earned themselves a No.1 seed in the Inland Division, following their second-straight undefeated season. They hope to return to 2013 form, when they won the CIF Championship with a 34-33 victory over Rancho Verde. The two could meet up again this year in the semi-finals, should both teams advance far enough. Heritage was unstoppable this season, never scoring less than 34 points in any of their 10 games. On the year they averaged 43.5 points a game, thanks in large to the 1000-yard rushing season of Jalen Glover, who scored 15 of the team’s 56 touchdowns. The Patriots are set to host Hemet High School (6-4) for the First Round of playoffs this Friday at 7:30 p.m. For the fifth-straight year, the Paloma Valley Panthers (7-3) have made the playoffs, following a successful 4-1 league season. The Panthers will rely heavily on their seniors to push them forward over the next few weeks. Quarterback Chance Nolan (1900 yards, 22 TDs) and RB Demarco Prewitt (835 yards, 11 TDs) both had highly successful years, leading the team in nearly all statistical categories. They will play host to Redlands High School (7-3) on Friday at 7:30 p.m. Elsinore High (4-6) has grown accustomed to making the playoffs, now with their 11th straight appearance. Though their season wasn’t exactly something to be desired, the Tigers still snuck by the rest of the Sunbelt League, winning their final three games on their way to the playoffs once again. They will visit Rancho Verde (8-2) this Friday at 7:30 p.m. for the first round. South Valley League Despite an undefeated season,

be crossed by crawling underneath, a climbing wall, an infested checkpoint and a cage maze to finally come to the finish line through three circles of fire right before the medic station in which participants were told if they managed to survive, or otherwise were tagged as infected. Every contestant that made it to the finish line received a medal. Ryan “Garth” Garthright, Director of Events for Human Movement Management, the organizer of the Zombie Run, said that the event was a complete success.

headlights, and a lot of energy gathered in front of the starting military post. A few minutes afterwards the crowd cheered in excitement while a yellow moving light in the sky hovered the mountains, suddenly disintegrating into a blueish – green halo, framed by what appeared to be a dust or vapor cloud. The runners would have never imagined that what they witnessed was not an omen of a zombie invasion, but actually a missile test from the Navy, but still, it was enjoyed as everyone thought it was part of

the show. Over 1,300 runners in several batches were given the go ahead order, and during debriefing shared their horrifying tales of being persecuted by the terrifying infested creatures. Around 150 zombies were scattered along the course, some in plain sight, some hidden. Their goal was to infect every single human, and bring them to the realm of the undead. Runners went through two hydrating stations, four obstacle courses, including a net that had to

Calvary Murrieta (10-0), received just a No. 3 seed heading into the First Round of the East Valley Division bracket. Surrounded a slew of weaker teams, Calvary Murrieta cruised past all of their league opponents on their way to playoffs, outscoring all four other teams 228-18. Seniors Adam Schwab (1514 yards passing, 20 TDs) and Micah Roth (1602 yards rushing, 23 TDs) will lead the Warriors charge as they prepare for their secondconsecutive playoff appearance. The Warriors will host Vasquez High (8-2) this Friday at 7:30 p.m. Rancho Christian (7-3), surprised many this season, heading to the playoffs once again following a 4-1 season in league. A balanced offensive attack led the way for the Eagles this season, as they scored 46 touchdowns on the season, thanks to 294.2 yards a game. The Eagles are set to face off against St. Monica (9-1) on the road, this Friday at 7:30 p.m.

Ambassador League The Linfield Christian Lions (91), the No. 3 seed in the Northwest Division, will hope to continue their recent success in their ninthstraight CIF appearance. Thanks to a solid defense, led by senior linebacker Greg Holt (153 tackles, 7 sacks, 2 interceptions), the Lions allowed just 45 points over their last six games. They will host Verbum Dei High School (4-6), for their first round matchup on Friday at 7:30 p.m.

“All the human runners either were infected or survived, but at the end everyone had a great time,” he said, adding that the missile test launch came in a perfect timing, as “it gave an aura of an apocalypse, which was awesome.” Garth is already working on planning more Zombie Runs, and Temecula is on the list for next year. If you believe you can be a zombie survivor, or would like to infect others as a zombie, this is the event for you.

8-Man Leagues Cornerstone Christian (6-4), of the Freelance League, already took part in their first round playoff game on November 6, falling to Trona High School (10-1), 60-8. The Agape League will be represented by the California Lutheran C-Hawks (5-5), as they prepare for their first round matchup against Joshua Springs (10-0).

Advertising Tip of the Week

Appeal to basic human desires in your ads:

survival/extension of life, enjoyment of food/beverages, sex/sensuality, freedom from fear/danger, freedom from pain/discomfort, care and protection of loved ones, social approval (or “keeping up with the Joneses”), winning. Once you have determined the human desire that you are targeting, focus on the benefits of your product/service in meeting that desire. The features of the product/service may be exciting and great differentiators for you, but it is the benefits that

your customers will be interested in.
