When Community Health Systems (CHS) closes Fallbrook Hospital completely down on Dec. 20, some of its employees said they individually will face the challenge of trying to find another job, but fear the community itself will experience myriad negative effects for years to come. “I am concerned about the people I care for, because I already see the senior citizens suffering the consequences [of the hospital’s gradual shutdown of services],” said Carlos Perez, who has worked at Fallbrook Hospital for 22 years and also owns a private home care service.

Healthcare district still pursuing options Village News
Reports on “disappointments” in progress FALLBROOK - The Fallbrook Healthcare District (FHD) continues to seek solutions to the community concerns as the closure of Fallbrook Hospital proceeds. The board is fully aware of the impacts of the current circumstance and wishes to provide information appropriately reflective of developments regarding continuation of and access to healthcare services and programs within the community. There have been some disappointments along the path being pursued.
Palomar Health had centered their efforts on acquiring the licensing and certification to become the provider of services at the Fallbrook Skilled Nursing facility (SNF). The California Department of Public Health communicated its willingness to issue a license to Palomar Medical Center and the Fallbrook SNF, which would have made the SNF a provider-based facility from the state’s perspective. Unfortunately, the Federal Center for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS) determined that it could
not certify the Fallbrook SNF as a Distinct Part SNF, because of the mileage distance between Palomar Medical Center in Escondido and the Fallbrook SNF. Operation of the SNF as a Distinct Part facility was expressly part of the proposal made by Palomar because the enhanced governmental reimbursement rates for Medical and Medicare patients made the operation financially feasible. The SNF is currently a Distinct Part of the Fallbrook Hospital license, but the existing license cannot be used by a new provider
unless that new provider is willing to also assume operations of the hospital. Palomar continues to work with FHD in determining direction and development of other health pathways for t h e F a l l b r o o k c o m m u n i t y. F a l l b r o o k H o s p i t a l ’s management staff with FHD, and with support of Palomar Health, is continuing in efforts to identify and contract with an entity to operate a “free-standing”

Healthcare district still pursuing options from A-1 SNF at the current location. This means a facility that is a private enterprise not linked to an acute care hospital and that has the appropriate credentials, and which can obtain the necessary license to provide quality healthcare services in a SNF setting. There are several prospects currently being explored. The security and continued care of patients residing in and/or served in rehabilitative service is utmost in considerations. The hospital’s Emergency Department (ER) was closed on November 17 and an urgent care service was opened by Fallbrook Hospital to provide a stop-gap. That urgent care service will be discontinued on December 20. In life-threatening emergency, citizens need to call 911 for medical attention and transport to facilities where care appropriate to their medical condition can be provided. There are private urgent care services and/or extended hours of service available in this community from several existing providers. The district continues in its efforts to support the transition of the SNF to a new operator, as it continues to work with Fallbrook Hospital Corporation (Community Health Systems) to amicable transition and termination of the long-term lease relationship. The FHD board’s desire remains to find a way to enhance services to compensate for the closure of
and programs. Residents as well as potential providers are welcome to contact FHD administrator, Vi Dupre at (760) 731-9187 or send an email to fallbrookhealthcare@ e a r t h l i n k . n e t . Vi s i t w w w. fallbrookhealthcaredistrict.net for updates as they become available.

Nettleton Apartments in Vista, and the Armed Services YMCA will purchase toys for children and military families who participate in the Holiday Toy Drive. The Neighborhood Reinvestment Program is intended to provide grants to non-profit organizations for the furtherance of public purposes at the regional and community levels. In addition to non-profit organizations, county supervisors can also fund schools and fire departments, and supervisors can also use money from their budgets to supplement other county funding for specific county projects such as parks,
roads, and libraries. Each county supervisor recommends the allocation of his or her Neighborhood Reinvestment Program funds, although those allocations must be approved by a majority of the board. The grants to the Greater Fallbrook organizations were from the District Five budget of Supervisor Bill Horn. The Bonsall Education Foundation seeks to restore the schoolhouse both as an educational benefit for students and others who can learn about the community’s history and for use as a gathering place for community meetings. The exterior restoration funded by the Neighborhood Reinvestment Program grant will include lead
and asbestos abatement, wood repair and replacement, priming and painting, hiring contractors, tenting the building for air and soil quality purposes, disposal of hazardous material, and purchasing special gear for the workers. “The Bonsall schoolhouse is a historical building, and I look forward to seeing it restored,” Horn said. “This $25,000 grant will help fund repairs and improvements so that students and residents can visit the building again.” Community Housing Works specializes in developing and operating affordable housing units and also has a Learning Communities program which is free to participants and provides after-school programs including
homework assistance and Internet access. While children use the computer labs for homework assignments, adults can use a computer lab to search for employment, print out applications, access community resources, or gain technology skills. The computer labs are staffed with employees and volunteers to help link community members to needed resources. The Neighborhood Reinvestment Program money will be used to purchase 10 desktop computers and two printers for the Fallbrook View Apartments and Cedar/ Nettleton Apartments computer labs. “The computer labs available to residents at the Fallbrook

View Apartments and the Cedar/ Nettleton Apartments in Vista are outdated,” Horn said. “This $11,070 grant will help pay for much-needed technology upgrades so residents and their children will have access to working computers and on-line resources.” T h e “ S a n t a ’s Wo r k s h o p ” program of the Armed Services YMCA is a toy drive for military families and partners with Camp Pendleton’s “Secret SANTA” (with SANTA standing for Support And Nurture Those Americans who serve) program. In 2013, the Santa’s Workshop program served more than 600 military families. “This is one of my favorite events of the year to support,” Horn said. “The $10,000 grant to the Armed Services YMCA at Camp Pendleton will help buy toys for Santa’s Workshop and provide special gifts to military children and families to help make their holiday a little brighter.” To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

K-rails make Highway 76 more dangerous than ever
Fallbrook tree lighting - It took a village!
Finally, Caltrans is widening and straightening Highway 76 between Mission Rd. and Interstate 15. It is long overdue. Today (Mon., Dec. 8), as I write this, there was another serious, head-on collision on Highway 76, east of Gird Rd. Two people were seriously injured. Caltrans has placed over a mile of k-rail dividers on the south side of 76 between Mission Rd. and Gird Rd. I suspect that in the near future more will be coming between Gird Rd. and Interstate 15. Adding k-rails makes a narrow road even narrower. It takes away what shoulder there was. It is actually more narrow and it
Over a 1,000 people came to the official tree lighting at the Fallbrook Community Center. For the first time in 30 years, the tree was lit for the holidays. It took our entire village. The Friends of the Fallbrook Community Center spent over a year creating the event. County Parks & Recreation and center staff volunteered many hours of non-paid time. The County of San Diego Board of Supervisors generously granted a request to help fund the vision and local businesses, non-profits, and even individuals filled in the gap with donations. The FUHS band, Madrigals and CAST theater group entertained their community despite hectic schedules. Merchants put fliers in their windows. The Fallbrook and Bonsall chambers of commerce and the revitalization committee cheered the Friends on and advised.
gives the visual impression, when driving the road, of being very narrow. It is more dangerous than ever. Ideally, k-rails would be added to the center of the road to prevent head-on collisions. The road, unfortunately, appears too narrow for that. I think that the least Caltrans could do is add many more of the reflective dots to the center of the road; look at the speed limit and adjust it down if need be; and have the CHP patrol the road for speeders and drunk drivers even more often. These measures may help a bit. Mike Reardon
Madrigals have great stage presence On Dec. 10, at the California Retired Teachers Association breakfast, we were honored to be entertained by the Fallbrook High School Madrigals. I have to say that they, under the direction of Heather Smith, are a musical group that Fallbrook can be very proud of. They performed several seasonal numbers with beautiful harmonic arrangements and delightful chorography. The group of about 20 students presented themselves with dignity, bright
happy countenances, and great stage presence. What a joy and worthwhile experience it was to see the youth of Fallbrook engaged in such a positive activity! And this group is very busy right now delighting audiences at many local meetings and functions, making an outstanding contribution that enriches our community. My hat goes off to Heather Smith and her talented Fallbrook High School Madrigals! Marilee Ragland
Our immigration laws are broken Illegals are an insult to every legal immigrant in this country, of which I am one. They are, also, a slap in the face to every other person waiting in line to immigrate legally. Yes, our immigration laws are certainly broken. If they weren’t, these people would have been deported years ago. Granting amnesty to criminals only perpetuates the criminal mentality.
Look at Ferguson. Apparently, the protesters don’t think the police have the right to try and control someone who has just committed a strong-armed robbery and refuses to obey the law. Is this the kind of world you want to live in? If so, I suggest you buy a gun. You’re going to need it. Carolyn Mathes
Re: “What the election means” [Letter, Village News, 11/27/14] While the turnout for the election was low, it did provide an opportunity for the strong of heart to vote for a change – not losing faith or hope. The good life belongs to those who will make sacrifices to enjoy the fruits of their labor and provide an example for others who could improve their condition in life. While I consider myself an ‘independent’ – devoid of a political label, I feel compelled to point out that we are now at the back end of a ‘Democratic’ administration which promised to “lift the poor and working class” - but in reality has squandered, mishandled and so polarized our society that it will take some doing to restore the enthusiasm for what it means to be an American. The community activist–eloquent orator has led this country to a

An amazing 31 local non-profits gave back to their community with booths offering crafts, giveaways, and more. The Village News took time out to share their experience on promoting events. Even in the rain, the San Diegobased Christmas Lights Company got the lights up and doubled the amount. Without every one of these groups and others, it wouldn’t have happened. So enjoy the tree with family and friends as a symbol of peace and goodwill. It’s lit 5 to 10 p.m. through Jan. 1. Please thank the County servants, local businesses, non-profits and regular folks who helped bring a vision to life. And let the tree be a bright symbol of what our community can do when we work together. Ann Wade President Friends of the Fallbrook Community Center
The spirit of Fallbrook Sharing memorable experiences with people is what you do during the holidays. I did that recently in Fallbrook, starting with the inaugural Christmas Tree lighting on Dec. 5, the Fallbrook Christmas Parade on Dec. 6, and “Scrooge, the Musical,” on Dec. 7. I not only shared wonderful experiences with a few people, but with a whole community of them. Fairly new to Fallbrook, I was amazed Dec. 5 at the different programs in our town and the number of volunteers that make them run efficiently. Moving from table to table at the Christmas Tree lighting event, I listened to enthusiastic people explain their program’s purpose and accomplishments in the community; it made me want to volunteer to help each one. More important, I realized the number of people that work, behind
the scenes, to make Fallbrook the great town it is. The parade, my first in Fallbrook, was outstanding. Each entry visibly displayed community pride and love. A parade like this truly makes you feel like, “this is your town and you belong.” The musical, “Scrooge,” was the big bow on the weekend Christmas present. How nice to sit back and listen to this familiar Christmas story and watch how easy all those involved made every scene look. I know they must have worked countless hours in rehearsal. I recommend everyone see this soon. There is nothing like this kind of weekend to put you in the spirit of the holidays, as well as the spirit of our wonderful community, Fallbrook. Cheryl Balster

I felt compelled to respond to this letter, written by one who obviously doesn’t understand economics and chooses to label everything wrong as being done by Republicans, and chooses to have someone else develop “a plan for lifting the working poor and middle class” – without encouraging independence of thought which might enable those in need of help to support at least the opportunity for change. Blame and hopelessness can be replaced with optimism and confidence in the future by voting our beliefs if we all only give it a chance. Ed White

I see that FPUD has still not corrected last year’s misinformation regarding how this charge is calculated. Last year, after reading that sewer charges would be based on the lowest winter month’s water usage, we managed to keep our use below 1,000 gals for one winter month, expecting that our sewer charge would be calculated on 1 unit (=1,000 gals). We later were told, however, that FPUD disregards water usage below 1 unit - viewing such as “zero” water use. Instead, they chose to use a month with a higher reading. I needed to appeal to get our sewer charge corrected. It was reduced, but without acknowledgment or apology for their misleading guidelines. Since the calculation method appears unchanged from last year’s, will FPUD actually abide by it this year? I’d appreciate clarity in their formulation, as well as integrity and respect in their customer relations.

Don’t pack a pest, the holiday gif t nobody wants SAN DIEGO COUNTY – It’s the holiday season – time for traveling and exchanging gifts! But there are some gifts nobody wants, like things that could wreck agricultural crops, force quarantines and hurt the environment. So, residents need to remember to not pack a pest in their luggage. It’s easier to do than one would think. In today’s era of high-speed travel, someone can accidentally
carry a hitchhiking invasive pest or virus on all kinds of plant and animal-related items – maybe on that keepsake branch from Aunt Jenny’s holiday wreath, those bulbs from Florida, ornamental citrus branches from Asia or avocado leaves from Mexico. So, whatever travelers find on their trip, they should leave it behind when it comes to agricultural and related stuff, whether they’re traveling to

another state or another country. They shouldn’t transport any fresh, raw, uncooked, untreated foodstuffs, seeds, beans, nuts, rice, dried fruit, decorative greenery, untreated wood items, or animal products from almost any foreign countries. And if they are traveling and think they may have accidentally packed some plant or animal item away, they need to declare those products when asked by an agricultural inspector if they have anything in their luggage. Is it important? Yes it is, very important. Everyone loves their local and state agricultural products – from the fruits and nuts to veggies, chicken, eggs, beef and pork – and the agricultural industry is a huge part of San Diego County and California’s economy. But agricultural disease and pest outbreaks are happening everywhere all the time and can be carried by travelers to a new spot in a matter of hours. San Diego County is already fighting to control numerous pests and diseases, such as the gold spotted oak borer that is killing the native oaks and the Asian citrus psyllid, which could potentially spread “citrus greening” disease and devastate the local citrus industry. County Agricultural, Weights and Measures inspectors work year-round to keep potentially dangerous pests out by inspecting plant nurseries, shipping companies, the U.S. Postal Service, some retail businesses and occasionally Lindbergh Field. But they can use residents’ help too. So remember: Don’t pack a pest!

Debbie Ramsey Managing Editor Deputies with the Sheriff ’s Fallbrook substation made two notable arrests yesterday ( M o n d a y, D e c . 8 ) w h i l e conducting compliance checks on probationers. According to Sgt. David Pocklington, “On Dec. 8, at 6 a.m., five deputies from the San
Diego Sheriff ’s Department, accompanied by a probation officer, conducted a compliance operation. The operation was intended to contact probationers and to verify they were abiding by the terms of their releases from county jail.” “The operation resulted in four arrests and warrants being issued for two others,” reported Pocklington. “Deputies targeted
Three accused in death of Fallbrook military wife, Brittany Killgore, face life in prison without parole if convicted VISTA - A man and two women accused of killing the 22-year-old wife of a Camp Pendleton Marine from Fallbrook and dumping her body in a remote area in Riverside County will face life in prison without parole if convicted, a prosecutor announced Fri., Dec. 12. A June 1 trial date is set for Louis Ray Perez, 48, Dorothy Maraglino, 39, and Jessica Lynn Lopez, 27, who are charged with murder, torture and murder during a kidnapping in the April 2012 death of
Brittany Killgore. At the Dec. 12 felony readiness hearing at the Vista courthouse, Deputy District Attorney Patrick Espinoza said his office would not be seeking the death penalty for the defendants should they be convicted. Killgore was strangled at a home in Fallbrook where the defendants allegedly practiced bondage and sadomasochism. Killgore, who was an acquaintance of the defendants but was not a participant in their lifestyle, was lured to a meeting with
Perez on April 13, 2012, prosecutors allege. Killgore’s nude body was found near Lake Skinner four days later. Authorities allege the victim was killed after being abducted and forced to participate in the defendants’ bondage and sadomasochistic sex ring. Killgore had just filed for divorce from her Marine husband -- who was deployed to Afghanistan at the time -- and had been preparing to move back to Pennsylvania.

a good book. But books aren’t the only gifts shoppers can give the readers on their lists this holiday season. The following are a few gift ideas no book lover can balk at. E-reader: Before buying an e-reader, shoppers may want to first learn where the intended recipient of this thoughtful gift stands on the book versus e-reader debate. Some book lovers feel a sentimental attachment to traditional books, while others love the versatility of e-readers, many of which serve as tablets that allow users to peruse the Internet, play games and, of course, read books. If your friend or family member does not have an aversion to e-readers, then this might make the ideal gift. The price of e-readers varies depending on their capabilities, but you can expect to spend anywhere from $50 to several hundred dollars depending on which model you ultimately choose. Storage: For those readers who prefer traditional books, a new bookshelf can help them store their favorite titles. Books take up a lot of space, and avid readers tend to buy many new books each year, so homeowners and apartment dwellers alike will no doubt appreciate the extra space to store their collections. But even e-reader enthusiasts may find their storage filling up faster than they might have liked. To remedy that problem, holiday shoppers can buy a Wi-Drive with ample extra storage space so readers who keep both books and movies on their e-readers and tablets have plenty of extra space to store all of those new books they plan to read in the coming year. Decorative bookends: Those who have a passion for books and home décor might appreciate a unique set of handcrafted bookends to store the books they keep on their desks or those they keep out as decorative accents that guests can enjoy when visiting. Such gifts will please your friends or family members who have a flare for interior decorating while also appealing to their love of literature. Book club membership: A membership to a Book of the Month Club may be right up the alleys of those readers who read too fast to join a local reading group or simply don’t have the time to devote to a community book club. Such memberships often sell classic titles and the latest bestsellers at a fraction of the cost of the publisher-established prices, and members typically can order as many books as they would like. This can be a great way for readers to find new titles and keep the books coming in without breaking the bank. Avid readers are passionate about their books, and holiday shoppers can feed those passions by giving their favorite readers gifts that indulge their love of literature this holiday season.

HOSPITAL
from page A-1
“I already have senior clients telling me they aren’t able to drive out of town to visit their husband or wife who is now in a hospital elsewhere,” he said. Perez has been a familiar face in the medical-surgical unit of the hospital to many in the community. Employees have reported that people still drive up to the emergency room, expecting it to still be operational, only to find out they weren’t aware of its downgrade to an urgent care facility. Joe Poirier, who has worked as a radiology technician at Fallbrook Hospital for four years, said it is his opinion that the community won’t fully realize the economic impact of the hospital’s closure for three to five years. “It’s going to take a while for the full effect of this to transpire; with no hospital, some doctors will relocate their practices; some seniors will be forced to move out of the community to be closer to healthcare; it may impact real estate values; and some hospital employees may have to relocate their families to other communities where they can find work, thus impacting the student population at schools, etc., “ said Poirier. There is no doubt that the impact of the closure will be far-reaching. The number of Fallbrook Hospital (CHS) employees has fluctuated over time, but many say 350 staff members could be used as an average. Opinions are mixed among employees about what “should have happened” to keep Fallbrook Hospital open. “It’s very interesting because they openly told us every year they were making money until last year,” said Poirier. “So, you have one bad year and you close the community’s hospital? I think it is a case of bad management.” “Essentially, CHS ran it into the ground and Fallbrook Healthcare District allowed it to happen; they failed the community,” he
Fallbrook/Bonsall Village News TheVillageNews.com continued. “CHS didn’t have any interest in saving Fallbrook Hospital,” said Perez. “They make a lot of money elsewhere. They are leaving this community high and dry. Does that sound like a company that cares for its communities?” Poirier questioned the financial management of the healthcare district and suggested, “those board members need to be put under the microscope.” Some question what effect the establishment of union affiliation has made in the overall situation. In May of 2012, the nurses and the service employees at the hospital affiliated with unions. “It’s suspicious because it seems like the union comes in and soon after that all this stuff happens,” said Poirer. While the staff affiliated themselves with the unions, the unions were never successful in negotiating a contract for the employees with CHS. “It has continued to be in negotiations since 2012,” said Poirer. Employees have also expressed that they feel CHS is not living up to its established policies, like when they told employee representatives that they would not issue any severance pay. “CHS wouldn’t even sit down with us face-to-face to tell us,” said Poirier. “They just said they weren’t going to pay severance.” Perez and Poirier said because the hospital had so many employees of long-standing, a significant number would have been eligible for two full months of pay as severance. The CHS employee handbook reflects a grid showing severance pay levels based on years of service, but includes disclaimers with it. “The lack of severance pay is just another slap in the face,” said Perez. “Now CHS has made it where the employee handbook cannot be accessed electronically,” said Poirier. “They took it off-line. Why have a severance policy if you aren’t going to honor it?” Poirier said he thinks CHS will use the Worker Adjustment
and Retraining Notification (W.A.R.N.) Act as their reason for not issuing severance pay. The W.A.R.N. act, which became effective in 1989, requires companies who employ more than 100 individuals to provide notice 60 days in advance of plant closings and mass layoffs, which CHS has been very public about. A statement issued by Fallbrook Hospital public relations representation Monique Murphy-Mijares, underscores that. “Fallbrook Hospital Corporation values all of its employees and appreciates their service. Since giving employees 60 days’ notice of the separation of their employment, we have
Page A-11
sponsored benefits seminars and hosted a number of job fairs to bring other area employers to campus. The hospital has continued to pay its employees their normal salaries and benefits through to the date of their separation as the hospital has progressed toward discontinuing its operations. Fallbrook Hospital Corporation’s actions are in adherence to California and federal statutes, including the federal W.A.R.N. statute, and FHC’s severance policy.” The bottom line appears to be that many of the hospital’s employees didn’t think the closure would come to pass. “We really didn’t think they would close the hospital,” said
Sandra Barreto, a seven-year employee of the hospital’s dietary department. “Now, with the holidays, it’s going to be difficult to find work for a while.” Losing their jobs just before Christmas doesn’t make it any easier, the employees said. “ I t ’s h e a r t l e s s , k i c k i n g everyone out in the street five days before Christmas” said Poirier. “What makes me sad is that there are so many people that gave Fallbrook Hospital their all... and this is what they get,” said Perez. “I just think CHS could have done a lot more.” To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

Health Temecula firm specializes in human body donations for research, medical uses Tim O’Leary Special to the Village News A firm that has operated quietly in Temecula for the past four years has tapped the growing demand for human bodies for research, training, and other medical uses. It traces its roots to the mortuary industry. “It did kind of grow out of that,” said Peter Hamilton, vice president of California operations for Research For Life. The company has a dual purpose. It offers a no cost alternative to cremations and scattering ashes at sea. It also helps alleviate a shortage of human limbs, tissue, skin and other remains that are used by universities, medical schools, hospitals, biotech companies and other research and medical uses. It has made inroads among potential donors without relying on such traditional marketing methods as advertising or networking within the local business community. The firm’s local presence and low profile have surprised some Temecula-area business leaders who are familiar with the regional economic landscape. “I’ve never heard of them,” said Dennis Frank, who has served as a director, president, or vice chairman of the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce, Temecula

Valley Hospital, and the Economic Development Corporation of Southwest Riverside County. Alice Sullivan, the chamber’s chief executive, had a similar reaction when contacted recently by a reporter. Sullivan said she and other officials of the 954-member chamber do extensive outreach. But Research For Life has operated well below the radar, she said. “We’ve been to every nook and cranny out there,” Sullivan said. “It would be nice for us just to know they’re in the area.” Hamilton, who also owns a pair of southwest Riverside County mortuaries, said Research For Life has focused on word of mouth, rather than chamber membership or other networking methods. One of the company’s chief awareness-raising strategies centers on holding informational workshops at senior centers, mobile home parks, and other locations. One such presentation held at the Fallbrook Senior Center in October attracted 10 people. There, Peggy Holder, the company’s Temeculabased community coordinator, detailed the program during an hour-long presentation and questionand-answer session. She explained that Research For Life’s founders recognized the need for such a regional service as customer demands in the mortuary industry steadily transitioned from traditional burials to cremations and, in recent years, to questions about whole body donations. “We’re letting people know there is a third option,” Holder told her audience. She said that Research for Life will provide donors a no cost cremation and a free urn or scattering of ashes at sea. A death certificate will be filed at no cost, and the urn will be shipped to relatives at no cost following a cremation, she said. Holder later said three members of that Fallbrook audience had submitted applications to become donors and some others were still deciding. Holder is based in the firm’s 1,859-square-foot office and storage facility on Temecula’s north side. The office serves a vast region that stretches from the state’s southern boundary to the Ventura area and into Arizona. The Temecula office has an 11-body storage capacity, and the Murrieta Valley Funeral Home, which Hamilton owns, can accept additional donors. Hamilton also owns Options Funeral and Cremation Service in Lake Elsinore. Hamilton said activity in Temecula is increasing by 10 percent to 20
percent a year. The firm receives 350 to 370 bodies a year at its Temecula office, he said. “I think it could be larger, but it’s a long-term process,” Hamilton said in a telephone interview. “It’s not something that is right for everybody.” Company workers who are trained morticians visit the Temecula office twice a week to transport donated bodies to the firm’s 15,000-squarefoot Arizona facility. That facility primarily focuses on surgical procedures and training. The firm is a domestic and international supplier of human tissue for transplants, medical research, and a range of other uses. The body parts industry has drawn widespread interest in recent years as the demand and uses have multiplied. In 2006, a book by journalist Annie Cheney probed what has been described as billion-dollar industry. “Body Brokers: Inside America’s Underground Trade in Human Remains” by Broadway Books examines how human remains are obtained, processed, marketed, and used. Major corporations rely on human remains to develop drugs and medical equipment and devices. Universities and medical schools use human remains to teach and practice surgical techniques and evaluate new procedures. Doctors use them to replace heart valves, joints, tendons, burned skin, and numerous other injured and diseased body parts. Uses have been found for organs, tissue, tendons, torsos, bones, joints, ligaments, limbs, and heads. Human cartilage is seen as especially important because it doesn’t regenerate. Some estimates have assessed the value of a fully dismembered and eviscerated human corpse at close to $10,000. Unlike organs, which must be matched by blood type and transplanted immediately, tissue use is universal and it can be stored for years. National Football League quarterback Carson Palmer is perhaps one of the best known recipients of human tissue. Palmer shredded his knee during the 2005 playoffs, an injury that his surgeon described as “potentially career-ending.” The following year, the Arizona Cardinal starter received an Achilles tendon from a 44-year-old woman who had been killed by a drunken driver nearly two years before Palmer’s injury. Palmer’s surgery was just one of an estimated 1.5 million tissue transplants a year. Donate America – a nonprofit alliance of organizations involved
Shane Gibson photos Research for Life community coordinator Peggy Holder provides details about donor bodies used for research and educational purposes at an information session at the facility in Temecula.
Research for Life community coordinator Peggy Holder explains what is provided to family’s of donors. in organ, eye and tissue donations – estimates that nearly 124,000 Americans are currently waiting for organ donations. It noted that more than 47,000 corneas and nearly 29,000 organs were transplanted in 2013. There are more than 50 federally regulated organ procurement organizations in the country. Tissue banks in the United States are regulated by the National Organ Transplant Act, which dictates that tissues cannot be bought or sold. The law, however, does allow for the reimbursement of costs associated with the recovery, processing, and storing of tissue and for the development of related technologies, according to the American Association of Tissue Banks. The industry group states that nonprofit and for-profit tissue banks must follow the same regulations and they all share the same goal of making human materials safe and available for transplants and other uses. Offering what Hamilton called “a little look behind the screen,” he detailed why Research For Life was organized as a for-profit firm. He said the designation can be viewed
as “kind of a fine line” that exists in the medical services industry. As is the case with hospitals, physical therapy providers and hospice services, some tissue banks are organized as nonprofit and others are established as for-profit operations, he said. He said operating as a for-profit firm allows Research For Life to give donor families a level of service that some university programs or other tissue banks do not. Some organizations may terminate donation agreements if the donor later contracts a contagious disease or if other circumstances occur that prevent the body from being used for research or medical uses, he said. Such circumstances crop up in nearly 15 percent of the firm’s cases, yet Research For Life will honor its original commitment, he said. “It’s a very significant percentage,” he said. “We will provide what was promised even if the donor is no longer viable for the intended process.” More information can be found at www.researchforlife.org or by calling (951) 719-3334.

A total of 141 lab-confirmed cases have been reported to date this flu season, 86 more than at the same time last year. Influenza can be deadly. Last influenza season was the deadliest in San Diego since the county began tracking the disease. Seventy people died due to complications from the flu, the highest number ever recorded by the County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA). • For the week ending Dec. 6, the HHSA Influenza Watch report shows the following: • Emergency department visits for influenza-like illness: 3 percent (same as previous week) • Lab-confirmed influenza cases for the week: 45 (up from 17 the previous week) • Total influenza deaths to date: 0 • Total lab-confirmed influenza cases to date: 186 (compared to 84 last season) The best shot against the flu The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone 6 months and older get a flu vaccine every year.

Business Qualit y Clutch & Transmission: Pros who know their business Laura Taylor Special to the Village News Quality Clutch & Transmission owner Mike Howard understands the intricacies of a vehicle’s transmission. Modern-day automobiles require more than just a manual knowledge of removing and replacing parts. One has to know the logistics of how the entire system works, which involves education and experience. Howard’s priority, in order to serve customer’s well, is keeping informed with the latest updates, computer diagnostics, and other requisites that have evolved within the automobile service industry. The parts of an engine are so complex nowadays, that being able to remove and replace a part without doing any damage to the existing surroundings of that component requires extensive knowledge and precision. “We do not train mechanics by having them work on our customer’s cars,” said Howard. “Years of experience are invested in each service that we perform, ensuring that the job is done correctly and in a timely manner.” Ensuring that correct parts and quality components are utilized for repairs is another priority at Quality Clutch & Transmission.
Satisfied customers abound at this local business. Known to be honest and trustworthy, Quality Clutch & Transmission gets many referrals and recommendations from existing clients. Online reviews are glowing. Quality Clutch & Transmission always explains specific repair issues to clients, particularly with transmissions. Many people assume that just because there may be a problem with their transmission, the entire system must be replaced. Howard analyzes the transmission and often finds that there may be only a certain part of the system that needs replacing, thus saving the customer a sizable amount of money. While many general repair shops may find it more efficient and profitable to unnecessarily replace an entire transmission, often times because a mechanic does not completely understand the equipment. Because of Quality Clutch & Transmission’s reputation, many customers will bring their car for an evaluation before taking it to the dealer, simply to obtain facts along with an expert opinion regarding the vehicle so that they are better prepared to converse about the issue. Jim Serdahely, the ASC certified

Serdahely’s specialties include brakes, tune-ups, electrical diagnostics, shocks, and oil changes. “One of the benefits of having your automobile receive all its

The new captains are Brian MacMillian, Eddie Jones, Ryan Garing and the new engineers are Matt Lindsey and Mike Benoit. The addition of new individuals into the department is an exciting time for all.

brilliant color serves as a bright spot in the midst of winter when pumpkins grace tables and porches as festive decorations. In the fall and winter pumpkin is an ingredient in smoothies, soups and lattes. There is even pumpkin beer. Okay, I will stop. There are way too many culinary uses for pumpkin to list in this story, anyway. In recipes that call for pumpkin purée, I sometimes use fresh pumpkin cooked in the microwave. The pulp that contains the seeds is scraped out, but the rind is left on during cooking. I microwave my pumpkins according to any online winter squash recipe. Don’t throw away the seeds! They are delicious when ovenroasted. I have been roasting
pumpkin seeds since I was in junior high. In those days ovens didn’t have built in timers – at least ours didn’t – so we had to buy them separately. Our timer was a small white contraption that would make one short ding. If you missed the one ding you were out of luck. Especially if you were watching Dark Shadows on television and you didn’t hear the one ding, then your pumpkin seeds would burn. Yes, it happened to me. Some of my pumpkin seeds survived to the golden-brown stage and others – well – ended up as compost in the garden. The recipe for baked pumpkin seeds is simple. First wash the seeds, then pat dry with a paper towel and spread in one layer on a baking sheet. The seeds are baked
at 300 degrees for about 30 to 40 minutes. It’s best to watch them. When they turn golden-brown they are done. When they are black they become candidates for the compost heap. In winter the importance of pumpkin begins to wane, however, until January, dishes created from pumpkin are ever-present. So we still have a few weeks to enjoy the season of pumpkin!

Competitive equestrian vaulters team revived at Rawhide Ranch Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent During Patti Skipton’s previous tenure at Rawhide Ranch the facility had a competitive equestrian vaulting team. That team disbanded after Skipton moved to Watsonville in 1983 but, after her return to Rawhide Ranch in August, the Encore Equestrian Vaulters team was formed in September. “This is kind of an encore of the competitive team,” Skipton said. The Encore Equestrian Vaulters team has not yet had a competitive event, but an exhibition took place Nov. 22 at Rawhide Ranch and the equestrian unit also participated in the Dec. 6 Fallbrook Christmas Parade. Equestrian vaulting involves activity related to dance and gymnastics albeit on horseback. The sport has its origins in ancient Greece and is popular in Europe but was not introduced to the United States until the early 1970s. Skipton is originally from the Northern California town of Corning. She initially came to Rawhide Ranch in 1974, when it had a vocational college which attracted her. Skipton met her husband, Skip, while studying at Rawhide Ranch. A circus performer who was teaching classes at Rawhide Ranch in the early 1970s brought vaulting there. Skipton observed a handful of campers practicing that activity and began teaching vaulting to other vocational college students. Vaulting became a popular camp activity and was soon being offered as an elective. Skipton formed the Rawhide Ranch Vaulters competitive team in 1981. The team traveled to the national championships in 1983 before Skipton moved to Watsonville and the Rawhide Ranch Vaulters disbanded. During her two decades in Watsonville, Skipton coached the Monte Vista Vaulters team and also represented the United States at the 1994 World Equestrian Games in The Netherlands. During the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, Skipton coached an exhibition vaulting team. Skipton and her husband moved to northern Washington from Watsonville. The 2010 World
Carolann Campbell is pictured with her horse, Blush. Campbell is a member of the Encore Equestrian Vaulters team from Rawhide Ranch. Equestrian Games were held in Lexington, Ky.; although Skipton did not coach in that competition a South African vaulter borrowed a horse from Skipton and she lunged for the South African team. The American Vaulting Association recognized Skipton as the Trainer of the Year in 2010 and the Mentor of the Year in 2011.
Skipton returned to Bonsall in August after the new management of Rawhide Ranch hired her husband. She had a plan to restore a vaulting team to Rawhide Ranch based on the camping classes which were still being taught. “There were a number of kids who vaulted in camp who were eager to take lessons,” she said.
The Encore Equestrian Vaulters team currently has nine vaulters. “It’s still growing,” Skipton said. “We’ll get more students as we grow.” Because of the roots from the camp, the oldest members of Encore Equestrian Vaulters are currently college students while the youngest is in second grade,
but there are no age restrictions on team members. “I would be open to adults,” Skipton said. The Nov. 22 exhibition included three horses as well as the nine vaulters. “It was really good,” Skipton said. To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com. Christine Rinaldi photos

with 386 points. A school can enter up to seven runners at the CIF meet. The Warriors were without senior Rudy Velasquez, who finished fourth among Fallbrook runners in the Valley League meet Nov. 15 but who had a conflicting family commitment the day of the CIF meet, so only six Warriors ran in the section race. Sophomore Chris Larson finished 70th with a time of 18:52.54; sophomore Dillon Howell placed 90th at 19:05.45; junior Wade Leehey was the 93rd finisher 19:10.32 after the race began; senior Roberto Valencia closed out his high school crosscountry career with a 102nd-place finish and a time of 19:37.40, and sophomore Alec Billmeier took 123rd place with a 20:52.42 performance.
“I’m pleased and very proud of the guys, the way the guys competed,” Arias said. Two Warriors other than Comerford ran in the 2013 meet. Larson was 121st at 19:08 and Billmeier placed 139th with a time of 21:14. Howell ran on the junior varsity in 2013, and he was Fallbrook’s sixth finisher at the league meet. “Dillon’s really come out of nowhere,” Arias said. The Warriors also finished 14th at the 2013 CIF meet. Fallbrook was 16th in 2011 and 19th in 2012. Fallbrook finished fourth in the 2014 Valley League standings, and two of the three Valley League teams which finished ahead of the Warriors won CIF division championships at the section meet. “I’m very pleased with what they accomplished this year, especially

Warrior girls 15th at CIF cross-country meet Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent Fallbrook High School’s girls cross-country team placed 15th among the 18 Division I schools and 47th among the 75 girls teams in all divisions at the CIF San Diego Section cross-country meet Nov. 22 at Morley Field in San Diego. “Given what we had out there we ran our best,” said Fallbrook head coach Troy Hamlin. A total of 125 girls ran in the Division I race. Fallbrook’s fastest runner was senior Kiera Donoghue, who finished 40th. The next Warrior across the finish line was sophomore Ariana Buchholz, who was 88th. “If your number two is in 88th place you’re in trouble,” Hamlin said. A school can enter up to seven runners at the CIF meet. A family commitment kept junior Natalie
Dudley from competing, so six Warrior girls competed in the section race. The girls ran on a 2.75-mile course. Donoghue had a time of 18:49.56. “She did her best,” Hamlin said. Last year Donoghue finished 61st in the Division I race, but her 2013 time of 18:40 was faster than her performance this year. Hamlin knew that Donoghue was battling a foot problem during her senior season and that she missed the team’s first three invitational meets in September, although he was not told of a September magnetic resonance imaging scan which revealed a cyst above Donoghue’s ankle. “She fought through it pretty well,” Hamlin said. Donoghue also had an advanced placement government class which was only held during sixth period, so she was not able to

take athletics for sixth period and join the cross-country team when most of the rest of the members began practice. “She’s not getting to practice until 3:15 usually,” Hamlin said. On some days the varsity runners would wait for Donoghue before beginning their run. “At best she’s going to hop in completely unwarmed up,” Hamlin said. Donoghue had proposed taking the advanced placement government class in an independent study format or at Palomar College during the summer, but that request was denied by her counselor. “Kiera had as good a season as she could,” Hamlin said. As a sophomore in 2012, Donoghue had a time of 19:00 to finish 76th in the Division I race at the section meet. She was also on Fallbrook’s cross-country team as a freshman but did not participate

in the CIF meet. “A lot of girls don’t make it four years,” Hamlin said of Donoghue’s four years in the cross-country program. “She did a nice job.” Buchholz completed the CIF race in 20:39.20. She ran the Oct. 3 Valley League cluster and then missed more than a month of competition and practice due to shin splints. “She lost too much conditioning to do much coming back,” Hamlin said. Buchholz competed in the 2013 section meet as a freshman and finished 79th in the Division I race with a time of 19:04. Fallbrook’s third finisher at the 2014 CIF meet was Hannah French, who took 95th place in her first CIF race and had a time of 20:52.86. “Nobody would have ever expected, including myself, that she would have been the girl who finished third for us,” Hamlin said. French is now 5’10”, and some of that growth occurred over the past year. “She’s just getting used to her new taller body,” Hamlin said. Hamlin noted that taller bodies

have a greater mass to weight ratio, and while a stride may be longer it also takes more time. “Tall people, quite honestly, struggle in cross-country,” he said. Hamlin added that height is not such a disadvantage in track and field where running techniques are different. “She never gave up on herself. She always had a great attitude all season long,” Hamlin said of French. “She did get better over the course of the year,” Hamlin said. “I personally am really happy with Hannah’s season. She did a great job all season long.” Exchange student Johanna Wehming began the season in junior varsity races but competed in the CIF meet, where her time of 21:09.18 gave her 100th place. “Hannah and Johanna were two bright spots on the team,” Hamlin said. Wehming is from northern Germany. Between her arrival at the CIF meet and the Division I race she told Hamlin that she hadn’t experienced a meet in Germany which was comparable to the San Diego Section meet. “The intensity level here is much greater than you’re going to find pretty much anywhere else in the world,” Hamlin said. Giselle Rivera, a freshman with no organized running background, was the 108th finisher 21:23.69 after the race began. “She’s a hard worker and she really tries to be good and do the right thing,” Hamlin said. “Giselle did her best this year, and I’m happy with her performance.” During practice the week prior to the Valley League championship meet Nov. 15 at Guajome Park, junior Andrea Vela was limping, so Hamlin had her walk on the track for the remainder of the week. Hamlin also told Vela to step off the course at the league meet if she wasn’t able to run normally without an altered stride, and Vela dropped out in the first mile. Hamlin told Vela that she could also step off the course during the CIF meet - if she chose to run at all. “It was really her call to give it a shot,” Hamlin said. “She wanted to give it a shot,” Hamlin said. “That’s a really good attitude.” Vela completed the course in 21:43.28, which gave her 112th place. “She couldn’t really push off and run at the same tempo,” Hamlin said. “She was very disappointed in her race.” In 2013, Vela finished 60th at 18:38, and in the 2012 race her time of 20:07 placed 108th. “Injuries are injuries and there’s nothing you can do about them,” Hamlin said. The cumulative positions of a school’s top five runners provide team scores; the sixth and seventh finishers are not scored but can add points to opponents’ totals. Fallbrook had 431 points to finish in 15th place. San Diego accumulated 417 points to earn 14th place among Division I schools, which is the position 359 points gave the Warriors in the 2013 meet. Calexico High School had a score of 437 points for 16th place while the Helix total of 440 points placed the Highlanders 17th.

Warrior volleyball players honored at post-season banquet Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent The post-season banquet for Fallbrook High School’s girls volleyball team took place Nov. 14 at United Methodist Church of Fallbrook. “The banquet was fabulous,” said Fallbrook varsity coach Chip Patterson. The banquet which recognized Fallbrook’s varsity, junior varsity, and freshman players was expected to be completed in two hours but lasted for three hours. The showing of a digital video disc presentation of season highlights complemented the presentation of awards. The Warriors’ Most Valuable Player was senior setter and right side hitter Jessi Fagrell. “Jessi is a great all-around player,” Patterson said. “She has the potential to be a great college setter.” Fagrell led the team in kills and was second in assists. She also led the team in serving aces. “She was able to pick apart teams with her serving,” Patterson said. “She was knowledgeable in the game of volleyball,” Patterson said. “She had a lot to prove to herself and to her teammates. She did a good job.” Sophomore setter and right side hitter Chyna Southwell was the Defensive Player of the Year. “Chyna is all over the floor,” Patterson said. Patterson noted that Southwell had more digs than the team’s liberos. “She’s a scrappy player. She’s very defensive-minded,” Patterson said. “What kept us in a lot of games is her ability to play defense.” Patterson also cited Southwell’s serving abilities. “She can serve to almost any spot,” he said. Senior defensive specialist and libero Melissa Ruvalcaba was chosen to receive Most Improved honors. “What I’ll miss most about her is her tenacity,” Patterson said. “Last year she wasn’t as confident,” Patterson said. “This year she was extremely confident. She became a lot more aggressive.” Patterson noted that Ruvalcaba didn’t lack the appropriate attitude. “She is willing to put it all out there for you,” Patterson said. “She was always about improving herself to be a better player.” Senior defensive specialist Lexi Gibson was given the Heart of the Warrior Award, which considers players on all three levels and emphasizes team spirit. “It’s more about the sport itself,” Patterson said. Patterson noted Gibson’s willingness to be in the gymnasium
even when the team wasn’t practicing. “Lexi played volleyball constantly,” Patterson said. “She loves the game of volleyball and she tries her hardest to give you everything.” Patterson noted that Gibson also tried to shake off her mistakes. “She never dropped her head,” Patterson said. Gibson also had a positive mental effect on her teammates. “All of the other players said Lexi was the one who made them feel the best,” Patterson said. “She was always showing them ways that they can improve themselves.” Junior libero Ellen Allison took home the Heather Schulte Award which is named for one of the Warriors’ former coaches and awarded for outstanding character and sportsmanship. “She’s into the game, academics, she’s into her fellow teammates, and she’s always looking for ways to be successful,” Patterson said. “She wants the volleyball program to be successful.” That includes involvement in fundraisers and volunteering at camp programs. “She was dedicated to it,” Patterson said. Allison made one exception to her focus on the game - she informed Patterson that school class matters would take precedence. “She showed that in her academics,” Patterson said. Allison was the only player on the team who had nothing but “A” grades on her report cards. “She impressed us on the court and off the court,” Patterson said. Allison was also selected as the team captain even though she is a junior. At the junior varsity level, the Most Valuable Player was Heidi Lona; Defensive Player of the Year recognition was given to Nicole Zelasco; the Most Inspirational award was taken home by Gloria Carnahan, and Zoe Connelly was the Most Improved recipient. Freshman team awards were given to Natalie Weber for Most Valuable Player, Maribel Rueda as the Most Improved, Alex Pestolis for Most Motivated honors, and Madelin Martin as the Best Defensive Player. Assistant coaches Leilani Patterson and Pedro Patterson assisted Chip Patterson on the varsity. Noemi Jara was the junior varsity coach and Jason Dale coached the freshman team. “I have to give a lot of credit to my assistant coaches,” Chip Patterson said. “This year the coaches were phenomenal.” To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

BUSD taking advantage of music enrichment donations Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent
calls for one performance at each of the three elementary school sites.
The contract was approved on a 3-0 vote Oct. 9. Dick Olson, Lou Riddle, and Sylvia Tucker
voted in favor. Timothy Coen and Richard Smith were not at the board meeting.
To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.
Alison Arter-Fulcher is providing music enrichment education at the three elementary schools in the Bonsall Unified School District, and Bonsall taxpayers aren’t funding the bill. Donations from the Bonsall Education Foundation and the Parent-Teacher Association of Bonsall West Elementary School allowed the BUSD board to approve an independent contract agreement with Arter-Fulcher at the board’s Oct. 9 meeting. Arter-Fulcher is being paid $156 per session with an annual cap of $14,500. “She does a great job,” said BUSD superintendent Justin Cunningham. Arter-Fulcher worked with the Bonsall students for four months during the 2013-14 school year. “She was really good,” Cunningham said. The schedule calls for ArterFulcher to provide 37 full sessions and 19 half-sessions at Bonsall Elementary School, 39 full sessions at Bonsall West Elementary School, and 19 half-sessions at Vivian Banks Charter School between Sept. 29 and March 13. Arter-Fulcher will provide students with music concepts in rhythm, melody, harmony, form, and expression. The contract also

BUSD reports transition to K-12 district going well Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent The agendas of many organizations, including public agencies, include a non-voting notification of the board’s next meeting. The June 11 agenda for the Bonsall Union School District board meeting had a future meetings item which read: “There are no further meetings scheduled for the Board of Trustees. Bonsall Union will merge with Bonsall Unified on July 1, 2014.” In November 2012, the voters of the Fallbrook Union High School District, which at the time included the Bonsall Union School District and two other elementary school feeder districts, approved Proposition BB which converted the K-8 Bonsall Union School District into the K-12 Bonsall Unified School District while detaching that territory from the Fallbrook Union High School District. The reorganization took effect on July 1, 2014, although in February 2013 the transitional Bonsall Unified School District was created with a board identical to the Bonsall Union School District so that transitional matters could be handled. The Bonsall Union School District and Bonsall Unified School District board meetings were held on the same night from March 2013 to June 2014. “It has been a very detailed and time-consuming pursuit. There were so many bureaucratic issues we had to deal with,” said BUSD superintendent Justin Cunningham. The transitional activities included the fact that a new legal entity with a new name was a party to existing contracts which had to be modified. “It’s been a lot of work,” Cunningham said. On July 10, the Bonsall Unified School District board held a single meeting. Bonsall High School opened in August with ninth-grade students only; the school will expand by one grade each year through 2017-18. “It’s going well and we’re excited about how things are going,” Cunningham said. A remaining task is applying for CIF membership; the school board expects to approve an application to the CIF in January or February. “We have to work it out with CIF first, the details,” Cunningham said. The next meeting of the CIF Board of Managers is Jan. 21, but the Board of Managers will also meet April 22 and June 3 so both the first reading and the approval could occur in time for Bonsall
High School to have athletics for 2015-16. “It’s exciting. It’s a very exciting time in Bonsall,” Cunningham said. Cunningham noted that the high school opened just prior to the start of construction to widen State Route 76 from Mission Road to Interstate 15 and as residential

communities in the Bonsall Unified School District are being approved. “What we really are looking forward to is having an outstanding high school that will attract the demographic profile,” Cunningham said. To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

Ring in the New Year with festive part y ideas FALLBROOK – Although New Year’s Eve parties tend to be similar from year to year, hosts can explore the many ways to make their celebrations stand out from those of years past. This handy guide provides ideas to get the creative juices flowing. Establish a color palette. Many people equate New Year’s Eve with the gold and silver hues of champagne. However, a host can use any festive color for a party. Use the same colors on everything from invitations to dinnerware to take-home favors. Encourage guest input. Guests understand the cost of hosting and the amount of planning necessary to throw a festive party, and many will likely reach out to ask what they can do or bring. A host can figure out in advance which aspects of the party she wants her
guests to take care of so she has a ready answer when the inquiries start rolling in. Keep musical tastes in mind. A fun party usually includes an array of familiar songs and music that appeals to the masses. When compiling a party playlist, the host should choose songs guests are sure to know and love and mix them in with a few of his favorites. He can even ask guests to provide the names of three favorite songs when they RSVP. Dim the lights. Bright lights can make guests feel intimidated and awkward. Set the mood by turning off overhead lights, opting for ambient lighting instead. For a fun effect, string holiday lights around the room or use a portable disco ball to spread sparkling colors on the floor and ceiling. Candles are another option for intimate affairs,
but should be avoided as a safety measure if having a large crowd. Set out New Year’s fill-in-theblank cards. Encourage guest participation with an entertaining idea. Print out small cards that guests have to complete. Phrases like, “The bad habit I want to quit is ___” or “____ was the silliest thing I did last year,” can be fun to do and share. Guests can take turns guessing whose card is being read. Have the party catered. Unless the hosts want to spend the evening in and out of the kitchen, they can invest in catering. Guests of a late party won’t expect a three course meal. However, platters of sandwiches, appetizers and other little munchies will fit the bill. Remember, caterers may book up fast this time of year, so be sure to reserve service well in advance of the party.
Create a specialty drink. In addition to toasting champagne or sparkling wine, serve a specialty drink creation. This can be a beverage that ties into the color scheme or the theme of the party. Dessert drinks, such as chocolate martinis or vanilla cake-flavored vodka mixers, may be the right flavor for this affair. The host should also remember to provide non-alcoholic alternatives as well. Consider more substantial food after midnight. Encourage guests
to eat more and drink less once the clock has struck midnight. Casseroles and other baked dishes are easy to make in advance and have on hand. A breakfast buffet of pancakes, toast and omelets also will fill guests up with something more substantial than chips and dips. New Year’s Eve parties are a great way to reflect on the last year and look forward to a new one, and hosts can take steps to make their parties memorable for all the right reasons.

time again (it was just fun to punch the go pedal!) Despite that, I did get a real-world combined 25.6 miles per gallon; EPA ratings are 22 city/32 highway. Precise steering and a well-tuned suspension provided a well-balanced smooth ride and a great sense of control and response on curvy roads, lane changes, and tight parking turns.

lots of user-friendly electronics and safety features. All ten people I showed the car to – including a top real estate executive -- were impressed with the luxury look and feel as well as the technology in the car. Five adults fit comfortably on the 1.5 hour trip each way to the Great Oak vs Mission Viejo semi-finals football game. This was a drive down Highway 15, across the 76, and up Highway 5. Rear legroom was generous; passengers over 6’1” might find rear headroom a little close. The wide opening made for easy access to the generous trunk space (15.4 cu ft) which easily carried coats/blankets, stadium seats, camera equipment, and more. I discovered my favorite techno-feature on that trip: blind-spot monitoring! A subtle orange light on the inside of each side view mirror let me know when a car was in my blind spot. The Altima also had rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning, a rearview camera, lots of airbags, antilock brakes, stability and traction control. All this and it scored an almost perfect score in every category of the insurance industry crash tests. My college son’s favorite feature was the eager and willing response from the 3.5-liter 270-hp V-6 that gets from 0-60 mph in less than eight seconds. This responsiveness proved quite useful time and

Poinsettia: The plant that says “Merry Christmas” Debbie Ramsey Managing Editor There is no other plant that says “Merry Christmas” quite like the poinsettia. The eyepopping, velvety red blooms signal the Christmas season, while a multitude of other color varieties have provided many options for utilizing these hearty plants in a variety of holiday themes. While the poinsettia’s native grounds are said to be Central America, it has distinct history in Taxco del Alarcon in Southern Mexico. While the plant’s beauty has created one element of its popularity, the Aztecs found that it had other notable purposes. The milky, white sap (latex) was successfully used to treat fevers from the 14th to the 16th century. From its bracts, the Aztecs were able to extract a purple-colored dye they used for textiles and in cosmetics. The individual credited with bringing the plant to the United States was Joel Roberts Poinsett (1779-1851), who was an ambassador to Mexico in the 1820s under the administration of President John Quincy Adams. Interested in botany, Poinsett introduced the American Elm into Mexico. One day while traveling a road in Mexico, he saw beautiful plants with large red flowers growing. He reportedly took cuttings from the shrub and brought them back to his home in the U.S. where he had a greenhouse. In time, U.S. historian and horticulturist William Prescott was asked to give Euphorbia pulcherrima (which meant ‘very beautiful’) a new name, and he named it the poinsettia, after Poinsett. Coastal North San Diego County (Encinitas) has played a significant role in the further cultivation of the poinsettia, thanks to Paul Ecke and

15th United States Secretary of War National “Poinsettia Day” is Dec. 12; it marks the date of death of Joel Roberts Poinsett in 1851. family who began growing them in the early 1900s for use both in the landscape and as a cut flower. By nature, the original poinsettia grew in an open, leggy method. The Ecke family is who is responsible for the much more attractive poinsettia varieties seen today. They accomplished that by grafting two varieties of it together to make a fuller, more compact plant. The Ecke family had a monopoly on that method until the 1990s when a researcher discovered the method and shared it with the open market.
As of 2008, the Eckes grew over 70 percent of all poinsettias purchased in the United States. At that time, it was also responsible for about 50 percent of poinsettia sales worldwide. Stores and nurseries in the Fallbrook area have good supplies of poinsettia plants in stock right now. They are a quick and easy way to brighten up a home for the holidays! To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.
Poinsettia facts • They are part of the Euphorbiaceae or Spurge family • Poinsettias ooze a milky sap that can cause irritation or nausea in pets; those with allergies to latex may have a skin reaction to it • What people think are the colorful (red or white) “flowers” are actually called “bracts,” or “modified leaves.” The actual flowers of the plant are the yellow-clustered buds in the center, called cyathia. • The poinsettia has also been called the “lobster flower” and “flame leaf flower.” • Outside of its native environment, poinsettias do best as indoor plants with good morning sun, then shade in the hotter part of the day. Poinsettias can be kept outside, as long as it is kept free of frost. • Water poinsettias and allow excess water to drain out. Too much moisture will result in mold growth.
Over 34 million poinsettia plants are sold each year, according to a 2013 USDA report.
If left untrimmed, the poinsettia bush can reach heights of 15-feet.
There are now approx. 100 varieties of poinsettias available in colors such as the traditional red, white, pink, burgundy, marbled, and speckled.

Real Estate & Home and Garden Want to plant a garden full of celebrities?
Many rose varieties have been named af ter very famous people FALLBROOK – In his play, “Romeo and Juliet,” William Shakespeare famously penned the line, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” The line suggests a name is mere convention and meaningless compared to the person behind it. Why should the lovers’ family names matter when love is integral to their relationship? Names may have been trivial to Juliet, but some argue with her logic. Names evoke powerful emotions and even physical
responses, and everyone from business owners to product manufacturers to expecting parents put significant thought into choosing the right names. The names of particular roses also carry some weight. Many consider it an honor to be named after a beautiful flower, but flowers also have been named after some memorable people. In fact, upon visiting a rose garden you’re likely to mingle with many famous names. A chance encounter with a favorite movie star is rare, but meeting his or her floral equivalent
Christopher Columbus rose
Merry Christmas TO ALL OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS, OUR FAMILIES & OUR TROOPS!
is a much more realistic possibility. Roses weren’t always named after people. The first rose ever to be named after a person was the “Dorothy Perkins.” Businessman Charles Perkins became interested in roses in 1882 and asked a man who specialized in producing hybrid roses to introduce a brand new rose to the market. The grower created the “Dorothy Perkins” in honor of Perkins’ granddaughter in 1901. Roses have been named for literary figures, musicians, actors, and other well-known personalities. There is the “Amadeus,” named after Mozart, and the “Caesar,” named for the famous emperor. There is a “Leonardo da Vinci” rose, as well as one named for Princess Diana. Many roses are named after female celebrities. The “Barbra Streisand” is a rich lavender and mauve rose named after the songstress. An “Elizabeth Taylor” rose has a strong fragrance and a deep pink hue. Television favorite, Betty White even has a rose named after her. Some roses are named after famous men, including the “Cary Grant,” the “George Burns” and even former Beatle, Sir Paul McCartney. World leaders have also been honored horticulturally Roses are named after Napoleon Bonaparte, Abraham Lincoln, and Prince William of Wales. Time will tell if Prince George will follow in the footsteps of his father, grandmother, and great grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, and have a rose named after him. Some roses are even named after fictional characters. Rose enthusiasts can delight over the
“Robin Hood” shrub with small bright roses or marvel at the pure white petals of the “Snow White.” “Frankly Scarlet” pays homage to the memorable heroine from “Gone With the Wind.” Shakespeare’s star-crossed couple also have roses named for them. The “Juliet” is a large, peach rose,
while the “Romeo” produces a small cluster of double, wellformed, deep red blooms. Chances are one can find a rose named for one’s favorite actor, politician, or literary character. By researching the vast array of roses, rose enthusiasts can cultivate a veritable garden of celebrities.

EDCO reminds customers to recycle this holiday season FALLBROOK – Family-owned and locally-operated, EDCO would like to remind its customers to recycle this holiday season. During the holidays, Americans throw away 25 percent more trash than any other time of year. From Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, an additional one million tons of waste is thrown out each week. Much of what will be tossed out after the holidays is recyclable or can be reused and with a little bit of effort, residents can reduce the amount of waste generated throughout the yuletide season. Paper gift wrap, gift boxes, greeting cards, cardboard and glass, metal and plastic beverage containers can all be recycled in residents’ recycling carts. An estimated 2.6 billion holiday cards are sold each year in the United States, enough to fill a football field 10 stories high! Residents can help reduce by sending electronic greeting cards, a convenient, no-cost, waste-free alternative, reuse by creating do-ityourself gift cards by cutting cards into little squares or rectangles or
buyback center. For information on Christmas tree recycling and more holiday recycling information, visit

Consider recycling holiday cards by cutting designs out of them to create new, handmade cards for the following year. use a fancy gift tag punch to turn this year’s cards into next year’s gift tags, and recycle by placing all holiday greeting cards in a recycling cart. The kitchen will also be busy cooking up feasts that will be featured on holiday tables and will likely produce used cooking oil that can be recycled. Kitchen fat, oil and grease (FOG) can be
recycled simply by collecting used discarded FOG in a leakproof container and dropping it off free of charge at one of EDCO’s conveniently located buyback centers. The FOG will then ultimately be processed, filtered and converted into biodiesel by a third party processor. Visit edcodisposal.com for a conveniently located EDCO

Base year values up just under t wo percent SAN DIEGO – In California, the assessed value of existing properties is only allowed to grow by either the California Consumer Price Index or 2 percent, whichever is lower. State law requires calculating the adjustment factor by rounding to the nearest 1000th of one percent. County Assessor Ernie Dronenburg announced that the inflation rate for the 2015 year is 1.998 percent or just under the 2 percent cap required by California law. The assessment roll will be “indexed” by 1.01998 for 2015, as required by Proposition 13. In addition, properties that
have changed ownership or have qualified new construction will be reassessed for the 2015 valuation year. See sidebar for the table of factors that have been used to index assessed values each year from 1976-1977 through this past year of 2014-2015. “The San Diego County real estate market continues to recover from the Great Recession,” said Dronenburg. “The market is growing at a lesser rate than it did in 2013 but it is still growing,” continued Dronenburg. “For example, the third quarter 2014 average residential property was
priced 8 percent higher than the third quarter 2013 average residential property.” “If you think that your property’s market value as of Jan. 1, 2015 is less than your current assessed value, you can request that my office review your assessment,” said Dronenburg. Property owners, who believe their property’s market value as of Jan. 1, 2015 has dropped below its current assessed value, can file an application online to request the Assessor’s office to r e v i e w t h e i r p r o p e r t y ’s assessment before the 2015 tax bill is issued. As an indication of
their current assessed value, an owner can reference the assessed value on their 2014-2015 tax bill. Also, the current assessed value can be found on the department’s web site at www.sdarcc.com. The application for an Assessment Review can also be submitted online at www.sdarcc.com. Assessor Dronenburg wants to remind the over 150,000 taxpayers who were granted a reduction last year that they need not apply again this year as their assessed value will be automatically reviewed. Assessor Dronenburg concluded, “If you would like a paper version
of the application form, you can call our help number at my office (858-505-6262) and a form will be mailed to you. However, don’t forget that April 30, 2015 is the deadline for submitting the application for a review of assessment.” All taxpayers who apply will be notified of the results of their request in July 2015. If the owner disagrees with the decision, they can file a formal appeal with the county Assessment Appeals Board. The appeal should be sent to the Clerk of the Assessment Appeals Board between July 2 and Nov. 30, 2015.

The approval of the bid and award process for slurry seal resurfacing on county-maintained roads will result in the resurfacing of 2.16 miles of Reche Road. The San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 Dec. 3 to authorize the director of the county’s Department of Purchasing and Contracting to take the necessary actions to advertise a contract for bid and subsequently award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder. The director of the county’s Department of Public Works will be responsible for administering the contract, and the supervisors’ action also found the roadway maintenance categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act review. “With gas taxes and other road funding sources decreasing annually, we have to extend the life of our roads on a small budget,” said Supervisor Bill Horn. “We use slurry seal because it is an inexpensive and effective tool for making minor road repairs.” The Department of Public Works maintains nearly 2,000 miles of road in unincorporated San Diego County, and road crews inspect the roads and prioritize them for preventative maintenance. Visual inspection, mechanical data collection, and resident and community input determine the roads which are most in need of resurfacing, and the road maintenance program also
evaluates rehabilitation strategies since the condition of a roadway determines the appropriate surface treatment. Asphalt concrete pavement overlays are used for severely degraded roads with extensive cracking or potholes, but if a road has only minor cracking and no significant surface damage a thinner layer of slurry seal may be applied. The bid package is structured with a base bid consisting of the minimum number of locations and four groups of additive alternatives, or locations which can be added to the contract should funding permit. The base bid includes the 2.16 miles of Reche Road in the total of 7.21 miles of county roadway. The countywide total including all four additive
alternatives is 11.78 miles. The estimated cost of the resurfacing, including contingency, is $2,250,000. A balance in the county’s road fund will provide $1,250,000, an additional $500,000 will be transferred from the county’s general fund, and Highway User Tax Account revenue obtained from sales tax on gasoline will provide the remaining $500,000. Utility companies have been notified so that trenching work on affected roadway segments can be scheduled before they are resurfaced. The work on a countywide basis is expected to begin in spring 2015 and be complete by summer 2015. To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

FALLBROOK - Buying a home can be simultaneously exciting and stressful. Owning a home is still a dream for many people, but first-time buyers often find that their unfamiliarity with the home buying process is a source of stress. Part of that stress stems from the terminology associated with home mortgages. Many terms may raise an eyebrow among first-time buyers, so the following are a few mortgage terms buyers can familiarize themselves with to facilitate the process of buying their own homes. Closing costs Buying a home is expensive, and part of that expense is the closing costs. Any time a real estate transaction occurs, that transaction is accompanied by certain expenses, which are known
as the closing costs. Closing costs may include attorney fees, loan origination fees, title insurance and escrow payments. Buyers can sometimes negotiate with the seller so the seller will agree to pay the closing costs, or the costs can be shared by the buyer and the seller. But buyers may also pay the closing costs in their entirety on their own. Escrow Escrow is a bond, deed, document, or money kept in the custody of a third party until a real estate transaction has been completed. In addition, escrow accounts are used to hold the property tax and insurance fees that are collected via your monthly mortgage payment. Fixed-rate mortgage A fixed-rate mortgage, unlike

an adjustable rate mortgage, is one in which the interest rate on the mortgage remains the same for the life of the loan. Many buyers prefer a fixed-rate mortgage because they know exactly what they will be paying for their home each month. An adjustable rate mortgage, often referred to as an ARM loan, is one that typically comes with a lower interest rate than a fixedrate mortgage, but that lower rate is usually only locked in for a relatively brief period of time, such as one year. Once that initial time period is over, the interest rate will then increase and may increase several times thereafter over the life of the loan. PMI PMI, which stands for private mortgage insurance, must be purchased by home buyers who are financing more than 80 percent of their homes. The standard down payment when purchasing a home is 20 percent, but some buyers cannot afford such a down payment. As a result, the lender then mandates that such buyers purchase PMI, which protects the lenders if the borrower defaults on the loan. The cost of PMI is added to the mortgage payment, and once a person has accumulated 20 percent equity in their home, they can cancel PMI, at which time the monthly mortgage payment will decrease. Title insurance Title insurance is a tool that protects both the buyer and the seller against legal issues that may arise as a result of the home’s title. Title insurance protects buyers and the lender from the possibility that the seller was not legally permitted to transfer ownership of the property to the buyer. Title insurance may also protect sellers from any issues that may arise that threaten his or her ability to sell the home.
