Sticking their necks out
Programs to help conserve giraffe look to gain traction locally and around the world
By Tony Cagala
ESCONDIDO — The two giraffe
approached the truck seemingly without a worry as Amanda Lussier, an
animal keeper at the San Diego Zoo
Safari Park extended a large Acacia
branch out and over the truck’s railing.
One of the giraffe quickly latched
onto the branch with its large blue
tongue and proceeded to pull it into
its mouth, contorting its lips around
the leaves.
The second giraffe followed suit,
with some of the park’s 14 other giraffe coming over, lowering their long
necks down into the truck’s flatbed to
see what food might be available.
That was an entirely different
experience than what David O’Connor, a conservation education division
consultant with San Diego Zoo Global
Institute for Conservation Research,
found while studying giraffe in the
East African country of Kenya.
For six months near the area of
Laikipia, O’Connor would have to
overcome certain challenges while
trying to observe giraffe in the wild
— at times being forced to observe
them from distances anywhere from
200 meters to 500 meters away.
It took him a month, he said,
just to get the giraffe used to seeing
his truck. Other times, the giraffe
wouldn’t do anything but stare at him
for several hours on end, making it
difficult to make any behavioral observations.

Commission endorses cell tower ordinance
By Aaron Burgin
SAN MARCOS — San
Marcos’ proposed cell-tower ordinance received a
unanimous
endorsement
from the city planning commission Monday night, despite being panned by both
cell phone companies and
opponents of the towers.
That’s compromise —
when nobody is happy —
the commissioners said.
“This is a perfect example of ‘you’re damned if
you do, and damned if you
don’t,” Commissioner Carl
Maas said.
“Nobody is going to
walk away from this happy,” Commissioner Steve
.com
Kildoo concurred.
Technically, the commission’s vote was to recommend the Council approve
the proposal at a future
council meeting.
Among other things,
the new rules would discourage cell companies
from installing towers in
residential and agricultural areas by requiring them
to seek a conditional-use
permit (as opposed to a less
onerous administrative permit) and provide the city
with technical proof that
the location is necessary
to bridge a significant gap
in coverage and is the only
possible location that would
do it.
The ordinance also sets
the maximum allowable
towers on a given property
based on its size.
For example, a 10.1acre parcel could have a
maximum of three cell towers.
Eric
Flodine,
the
commission’s chair, said
the inclusion of the maximum-tower language and
the conditional-use requirement made his decision easier, despite the opposition
from both sides of the debate.
“Having a CUP requirement means that the
people will have a chance
and we will have a chance
and the council will have a
chance to weigh in on these
application,” Flodine said.
“It gives me comfort to
move forward.”
Cell-tower opponents
railed against the ordinance, arguing the rules
did not go far enough to
protect residents. One particular group of opponents
have been urging the city
for stricter rules since last
fall, when a homeowner in
the Questhaven neighborhood sought — and received
— approval for a second,

Vista magnate schools
giving students 21st
century-ready outlook
By Tony Cagala
VISTA — Two magnate schools within the
Vista Unified School District are on their way towards making its students
more culturally aware,
multi-lingual and emerge
with a more 21st century-ready outlook thanks to
the implementation of the
International Baccalaureate curriculum.
Laurel Ferreira is an
International
Baccalaureate coordinator with
the Cal State San Marcos
extended studies course,
where for the past two
years teachers from the
school districts of Escondido, San Marcos and Carlsbad have been enrolled
and receiving training in
the curriculum.
And for the last year,
Ferreira has been working
with Vista teachers from
Casita Center for Technology, Science and Math and
the Vista Academy of Performing Arts as the schools
work to become IB recognized.
The program has been
implemented into the
schools as teacher training
progresses.
“The
International
Baccalaureate really works
on not just high academic achieving levels, but
having people understand
different cultures, speak
different languages, be
able to critically think,
problem solve; take in different perspectives — all
of those pieces — so that
when they’re working with
other people it facilitates
that,” Ferreira said.
A lot of European,
Asian and Australian
schools are IB recognized,
explained Ferreira.
Alvin Dunn in San
Marcos is in the beginning
phase of becoming an IB
recognized school, too.
Jefferson Elementary
in Carlsbad was one of the
early schools to implement
the IB program into their
curriculum.

things, that it’s growing.

Departure of city
manager cost city
over $145,000
By Rachel Stine
CARLSBAD — In a
mesh of paid leave, severance package, and increased salary for interim officials, the city of
Carlsbad paid more than
$145,000 total for the resignation of John Coates,
its former city manager.
And because the decisions regarding the exit
of the top city official
were based on confidential personnel matters,
the public will never
know why City Council
decided to spend that
money in those ways.
Coates spent years
building his career within the city of Carlsbad before he silently resigned
after serving less than
eight months as the official city manager.
He was first hired as
Carlsbad’s parks and recreation director in January 2010, having previously worked for the city
of Santee.
On being hired thencity Manager Lisa Hildabrand praised Coates’
“solid leadership and
true passion for the parks
and recreation field.”
Coates quickly rose
to assistant city manager on July 19 that same
year.
He would eventually
take over for interim city
manager duties for Hildabrand when she went
on leave in November
2012. He was appointed
as the official city manager on March 12, 2013.
As Carlsbad’s head
official, Coates oversaw
the city’s operations and
delivery of services, reporting directly to City
Council.
He ushered Carlsbad through significant
changes including a new
pay-for-p e r for m a nc e
agreement with city employees and the start of
construction of the city’s
desalination plant.
After
months
of
serving as the official
city manager, Coates announced his resignation
to city council in a closed
session meeting on Oct.
31, 2013.
The meeting’s agen-
da stated that the matter was discussed during
Coates’
performance
evaluation. The evaluation was specially scheduled because according to his city manager
employee
agreement,
Coates was supposed to
be evaluated once each
year in January.
The following Monday, an intercity memo
initially
stated
that
Coates was out on leave
and the city fire chief
had stepped up as acting
city manager.
Coates made no public comments about his
resignation. City council
declined to explain why
he left after serving as
the official city manager
for less than a year.
Coates’
separation
agreement required him
and the city to remain
tight-lipped about the
matter.
According to the
agreement, Coates is
not allowed to comment
or file any complaints,
charges or lawsuits in regards to his resignation.
The city in turn
agreed that human resources would respond to
all employment references for Coates by stating,
“only the dates of Coates’
employment and the position(s) held.”
The city’s only official statement about
Coates’ resignation was
released after his separation agreement was finalized on Nov. 6.
“John was called to
serve at a critical time of
transition for our city organization,” said Mayor
Matt Hall in a statement
upon Coates’ resignation.
“He has accomplished an
ambitious agenda, leaving us well positioned to
continue on our path of
becoming a truly world
class city.”
The only time any
reasons for why Coates
left would have been
given was in the closed
meeting, according to
assistant city manager
Kathy Dodson.

Country Club development to be placed on ballot
By Rachel Stine
ESCONDIDO
—
When the Escondido City
Council
unanimously
approved an initiative
to keep the Escondido
Country Club and Golf
Course as open space and
a golf course in August,
they thought the matter
was closed.
But a new petition
has forced city council
to put the country club
owner’s proposal to build
over 400 homes and a
community center on the
property to the voters on
the November ballot.
Hundreds of residents attended Wednesday night’s city council
meetings to show their
opposition to the development and support of
the original open space
and golf course initiative.
Developer Michael
Schlesinger’s company,
Stuck in the Rough, LLC,
bought the country club
in 2012. The country
club was closed on April
1, 2013, and shortly after
Schlesinger announced
his plan to replace the
club and golf course with
homes.
Residents
of
the
nearby
country
club
rallied together as the
Escondido County Club
Homeowners Organization to oppose the development and petitioned
the city to keep the land
as a golf course and open
space. That led to city
council approving their
petition initiative in August.
But
Schlesinger
fought back with a petition of his own, with the
initiative to build 430
homes and a community
center complete with a
pool and tennis courts.
The petition garnered
over 11,000 signatures,
almost 9,000 of which
were verified by the San
Diego County Registrar
of Voters.
The proposal came
before city council on
Wednesday night.
Because enough signatures in support of the
petition were gathered,
the city was required by
California Election Code
to place the development
proposal on this November’s ballot.
City
Council
did
have the option of ordering a report on the facts
surrounding the initiative and proposed development before the initiative is put to voters.
Schlesinger did not
attend, but several of
his business associates
spoke on the proposal’s
behalf. They lauded the
development
proposal
for bringing jobs and
millions of dollars in
economic benefits to the
city of Escondido.
Former state senator Dennis Hollingsworth pointed to the
multi-million
ongoing
dollar litigation Stuck
in the Rough, LLC, filed
against the city last year.
He said that sending the
country club matter to
the voters is more favorable than continuing
with the lawsuit.

representatives spoke on
behalf of the hundreds of
members that attended
the meeting to advocate
for the study.

Districts address school safety in report
By Rachel Stine
REGION — From keeping out intruders to evacuating students, school districts throughout the county
examined how secure their
campuses are and prepared
their staff is for safety emergencies.
“Student safety and
adult safety are our number
one priority. Teaching and
learning can’t occur unless
people feel safe,” said Jennifer Walters, Superintendent of the Escondido Union
School District.
“While we are about
educating and teaching students, we have to make sure
we do that in the best environment,” said Carlsbad
Unified School District Superintendent Suzette Lovely.
In March, San Diego
County’s Grand Jury released a report addressing
school safety needs and recommending specific actions
for local districts to enhance
security.
The report’s fifteen
findings focused on measures that districts can take
beyond security infrastructure like fences and locked
doors to improve safety.
“Physical security measures alone, such as increasing armed security and/or
arming school staff, should
not be solely relied on to ensure the safety of school staff
and students,” the report
stated.
The report recommended increased communication
between district staff, first
responders, parents, and students as well as established
training and security plans.
Each San Diego County school district responded
to each of the Grand Jury’s
findings in terms of how the
recommendations applied to
their specific schools.
The Carlsbad Unified,
ments as a key component to
their security measures.
Each of the districts has
recognized methods of direct
communication with the first
responders in their cities as
well as shared practice drills
on school campuses with
simulated emergencies.
Walters said that a district representative has direct access to Escondido’s
police and fire command
center during an emergency
to keep school officials updated on the situation and
how to address it.
The Escondido Union
School District has also implemented a wider variety
of emergency drills. The

What’s the beef with
backyard beefsteaks?
By Catherine S. Blakespear
I support an Encinitas that embraces our agricultural past and uses
it to launch us into a small-scale farming renaissance that could be our future.
Encinitas is lucky to still have the
remnants of our historic flower-growing industry. We also have landowners with historic avocado and citrus
orchards from before the city’s incorporation in 1986 and a batch of new,
young residents interested in locally
grown food. We have willing growers,
eager buyers and the perfect climate
for year-round food production. If residents want to grow food for sale locally, we should encourage that and make
it easy.
Unfortunately, recent interpretations of our current city codes do just
the opposite. For example, Encinitas
city planners have requested an unreasonable amount of information from
the owner of a 2-acre heritage farm,
Coral Tree Farm, to prove that the
farm has been in consistent agricultural use for the last 28 years in order
to retain her right to farm. No public
agency, not even the IRS, asks people
to keep records 28 years.
Similarly, the planning department has suggested to the proposed
Encinitas Community Garden that
they might need to use asphalt inside
the garden because the planners are
worried about dust.
This perspective reveals a striking
lack of understanding about the environmental realities of a community
garden. Dust comes from barren, unmaintained land in any zone, whether
it’s front yards or the trails abutting
the railroad tracks, not from beds of
vegetables.
We need to revise our city codes
to show residents who add value to the
community that we value them, too.
If someone wants to sell citrus,
vegetables or eggs from their backyard
garden, the city should not impose a
lengthy, expensive permitting process
that makes small-scale agriculture impractical.
Here’s my suggestion: Instead of
starting with the premise that urban
agriculture creates lots of problems
that we need to aggressively regulate,
let’s begin with the idea that through
urban agriculture we have an opportunity to build the kind of community we
want to live in. Let’s be creative and
practical about encouraging safe, responsible, and productive farming.
We could ask: What do land owners want to do with their land?
What farming or other outdoor
experiences do people who live in En-
cinitas want to have locally? If families want to take their children to see
a pair of pygmy goats, pick citrus, or
take a class on seed saving, let’s make
that possible. If, as a city, we want food
to travel fewer miles between producer
and consumer and we want more people to experience the joy of pulling a
carrot from the loamy soil or plucking
a heavy tomato from an earthy-smelling vine, then we need to create the
legal and administrative structures to
support that vision.
I believe neighborhood agriculture should be allowed by right in any
zone. It should be okay for me to walk
across the street and buy my eggs on
Saturday morning from my neighbor.
Organic gardens under a certain size
should be able to sell during daytime
hours.
We can require online registration
so we know where food comes from and
to ensure safe agricultural practices,
but other than that, no minor use permits, no traffic mitigation studies, no
expensive fees.
Just to be clear, I’m not advocating
uses that look like Knott’s Berry Farm.
That’s a different story.
But there are a range of uses between a backyard garden and Knott’s
Berry Farm, and I think our city codes
should recognize and allow for varying
degrees of use of one’s land, instead of
a rigid and under inclusive standard.
Ultimately, urban agriculture creates food independence, promotes consciousness around healthy eating and,
and just as important, provides us with
an ever-dwindling oasis of nature in an
increasingly developed environment
that is a joy to experience.
We need to be honest about what is
at stake. As a city we can remove barriers and allow our agriculture properties to evolve by providing a way
for orchards, gardens and greenhouse
sites to make money using their land
to grow.
Or, we can make it difficult, expensive, and so administratively cumbersome that we virtually guarantee
the extinction of our heritage as a
flower, fruit, and food-producing city.
Those lands will then become subdivisions. What do you want for Encinitas?
Let your city council know at council@
encinitasca.gov.
Catherine Blakespear is an Encinitas City Council candidate in November
2014 and attorney representing Coral
Tree Farm pro bono in the owner’s dispute with the city regarding whether the

to farm” on the family’s historic avocado
and fruit orchard.
est court has been dominated by leftovers
from two of its more conservative governors.
That’s about to change, as two retirements will soon let Gov. Jerry Brown
change the entire tone of the California
Supreme Court, long a bastion of pro-business, anti-consumer decisions and sometimes a brake on movements toward
same-sex marriage, loose regulation of
marijuana and other social issues dear to
activists on the left.
The first of the court’s old guard to
go was Justice Joyce L. Kennard, appointed in 1989 as the second term of Gov.
George Deukmejian wound down. Never a
leader of the right, for a quarter-century
Kennard could usually be counted on as
a pro-business vote in almost every case.
She resigned last spring and Brown has
yet to name a replacement.
Next to leave will be fellow Deukmejian appointee Marvin R. Baxter, known for
most of the past 20 years as the California
court’s most conservative member.
He resigned in late spring, effective
when his term ends next January.
With 2011 Brown appointee Godwin
Liu already the leading liberal in the
state judiciary, this means that within six
months, California’s top court should feature three Brown choices, the most for any
governor since Deukmejian got to name
six during his eight years in office. Three
Deukmejian appointments, however,
came after he spearheaded a move to vote
three previous Brown-appointed justices
off the court when their terms came up for
yes-or-no retention votes in 1986. Deukmejian claimed all — especially former Chief
Justice Rose Bird — were soft on crime.
The products of that Deukmejian
move are long gone, but the tough sentencing laws he pushed, with okays from
justices he appointed — including one of
his former law partners — are a root cause
of today’s prison overcrowding crisis. Academic studies are inconclusive on whether
they also reduced violent crime.
Now Brown gets another chance. He
turned to Liu soon after returning to power in Sacramento, not long after Liu was
denied a slot on the federal Ninth Circuit
Court of Appeals because some Republican U.S. senators objected to his academic writings excoriating the records of U.S.
Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and
John Roberts. With a moderately conservative majority on the California court,
his influence has not yet been strong.
That could change. Some legal experts believe Liu, along with Brown’s new
appointees, may quickly form a court majority with the moderate Justice Kathryn
Werdegar, the first of ex-Gov. Pete Wilson’s two remaining state Supreme Court
appointees.
This depends on two eventualities:
First, Brown has given no clue about who
his next high court appointee will be.
There has been strong talk of a Hispanic
appointee because Latinos have been unrepresented on the court since Gray Davis appointee Carlos Moreno left in 2011,
opening the way for Liu. Moreno is now
ambassador to the tiny Central America
nation of Belize.
Among potential appointees are
Thomas Saenz, president and general
counsel of the Mexican-American Legal
Defense and Education Fund, Stanford
University law Prof. Mariano-Florentino
With a moderately
conservative majority on
the California court, (Liu’s)
influence has not
yet been strong
Cuellar and several federal judges appointed by President Obama.
The second eventuality, of course, is
that Brown would have to be reelected
in November in order to choose Baxter’s
successor. Just now, that looks like a lock.
Brown netted more than 54 percent of the
June primary election vote, and but for a
misguided portion of the top two primary
law, the 2010 Proposition 14, he would already be reelected.
But he must run again this fall,
against former banker and Treasury Department executive Neel Kashkari, who
drew just over 19 percent of the primary
vote. All Republican candidates in that
open primary together took only about 35
percent of the vote, barely topping their
percentage of registered voters.
So chances are Brown will get another crack at appointing a state Supreme
Court justice next year. His choice will
more than likely come from the same list
he’s considering for the current vacancy.
The upshot will be a very different
court than California has seen since the
early 1980s, the last time Brown had something to say about it.

Grocery, hobby stores seen
as positives for San Marcos
Hobby Lobby at
center of Supreme
Court ruling
By Aaron Burgin
SAN MARCOS —
The San Marcos City
Council is expected to
finalize lease agreements that will pave the
way for the city’s most
high-profile retail vacancy to be filled.
The council will vote
to approve the a 20-year
and 10-year lease agreement with WinCo Foods
and Hobby Lobby, respectively, to fill the
space in the Creekside
Marketplace once occupied by Lowe’s Home Improvement Warehouse,
which closed in late
2013.
The lease agreement
is on the consent calendar, which is usually approved by a single council vote unless a council
member or a member
of the public asks for a
more detailed discussion
of the item.
City officials said
the tenants are both
unique additions to the
city.
“In the case of Hobby Lobby it is a type of
tenant that does not exist
within the city boundaries,” City senior management analyst Geoffrey
Foster said of the arts
and crafts store that
is similar to Michaels.
“WinCo is a unique 24-7
grocery store that will
provide additional services to our residents.”
WinCo, a 24-hour
grocery chain, would
fill 91,000 square feet
of the 150,000-squarefoot property, and would
pay the city $ 875,000 in
annual base rent during
the first 10 years of
the lease and $962,500
years during the final 10
years.
Hobby Lobby will
pay $768,500 in base
rent
during
years
one through five, and
It’s a net
positive for
the city.”
Geoffrey Foster
Management Analyst,
San Marcos
$ 826,500 during the latter half of the lease.
Under these terms,
the city will recoup the
money it spent on the
purchase of the building
in about five years.
The city spent $ 8
million to purchase the
building from Lowe’s
and rejected WalMart
as a tenant before starting negotiations with the
pair of tenants.
“It’s a net positive
for the city,” said Geoffrey Foster, a management analyst for the city.
Foster said the city
is able to demand more
from the new tenants
@CoastNewsGroup
than it did from Lowe’s,
which paid less than
$ 650,000 in rent in 2013,
because the city is leasing both the land and the
building to the tenants.
Hobby Lobby is at
the center of a controversial Supreme Court
ruling that states certain
companies and corporations cannot be required
to pay for specific types
of contraceptives for
their employees.
The U.S. government sued the Oklahoma-based
company
for refusing to provide
emergency
contraceptives to female employees — a key provision
of
President
Barack
Obama’s healthcare reform laws.
Hobby
Lobby
claimed the mandate
violated the religious
beliefs of the company’s
owners, the Green family.
The 5-4 ruling, along
ideological lines, has
sparked debate over religious and reproductive
and women’s rights.
U.S. Rep Scott Peters (D-San Diego) in
a prepared statement
called the ruling “hugely disappointing.”
A representative of
U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa
(R-Vista) said Issa had
not released a statement
on the ruling.

on smoking at its June 24
meeting.
The modified ordinances update Vista’s
definition of electronic
cigarettes and incorporate
such synthetic smoking devices into its current regulations, as well as extending prohibitive measures
to said devices.
Following last October’s adoption of an ordinance amending the city’s
municipal code regulation
of smoking in public places, as well as at a May 27
meeting this year, Councilman Cody Campbell requested further discussion
on the e-cigarette topic by
considering amendments
to include prohibiting
e-cigarette use in public
parks/facilities as well as
possession by minors.
In response, three sections in the Vista Municipal Code were presented
before the City Council
addressing
Campbell’s
agenda request. Chapter
8.12 deals with smoking
activities in public places;
Chapter 8.16 concerns minors’ possession of smoking materials; Chapter
12.08 tackles smoking in
and around public parks.
During the meeting,
Gena Knutson, who manages the Vista Community Clinic’s tobacco control
program, mentioned how
the aggressive marketing of e-cigarettes affects
minors in terms of where
they’re sold (in convenience stores, placed where
candy, gum, and ice cream
are located) and the appealing flavors contained
within these products.
“Youth are rapidly
adopting e-cigarettes,” she
said, and as to why, she
added, “Flavor is an important product characteristic in determining who is
attracted to a product and
the ability to get started
on a product.” And some of
these flavors include gummy bears, chocolate, cotton
candy and cherry.
Knutson went on to
say that there is no proof
of e-cigarettes helping
people quit smoking; furthermore, according to the
FDA, e-cigarette use has
not been approved as an
effective means of aiding
smokers in their efforts to
We’re going to
create another
generation of
smokers if we don’t
take care of this

Resident, Carlsbad
quit. And no e-cigarette
brand has undergone FDA
safety evaluations.
Janet Asaro, a citizen
from Carlsbad, expressed
relief at hearing the Vista City Council add e-cigarettes to its smoke-free
ordinance, which already
includes regular cigarettes. “They advertise
to our youth,” she said.
“We’re going to create an-
other generation of smokers if we don’t take care of
this in North County right
away.”
A member of the
American Lung Association, Debra Kelley, voiced
her concerns about the
youth not realizing the
e-cigarette’s deadly potential due to its attractive
flavors marketed towards
them. “They might not
even know,” she stated,
and continued to say that,
“they might not even taste
the nicotine because of the
sweetness.”
Kelley continued by
mentioning how the number of calls to poison centers has increased from
“one a month to over 200a
month,” thanks to the introduction of e-cigarettes.
Among the four —
Mayor Judy Ritter, Deputy Mayor John Aguilera,
and Campbell — who voted in favor of adopting
the amended ordinances
regarding the electronic
smoking issue, it was Councilman Dave Cowles that
acknowledged the speakers in particular for bringing substantial research
and data about e-cigarette
smoking to the council’s attention.
“We can’t control the
overall sale of it,” he said,
“but where we can — in
our public places and in
the way we allow sales —
I think we need to do the
best we can.”

HAM radio enthusiasts gather for a ‘field day’
By Tony Cagala
SAN MARCOS — Ham
radio enthusiasts were literally having a field day.
Sifting through static
and listening for another
voice on the other end, ham
radio operators spent two
days in a field off of Rancheros Drive, participating
in the annual ARRL Field
Day event.
Greg Gibbs, organizer
of the event, said one of
the goals was to see how
many messages could be
sent from their camp to
others around the U.S. and
Canada.
During the two-day
event on June 28 and June
29, their group made 776
contacts from cities within
the U.S. as far away as Virginia and Florida to Tex-

as, Ohio and Hawaii. They
were also able to reach other ham radio operators in
Canada.
The Field Day event is
part fun, but part training,
too.
Meant to simulate an
emergency where all power and communications are
down, the event served to
highlight that with portable generators communications were still possible by
using ham radios.
“The fastest way to
turn a crisis into a total
disaster is to lose communications,” said Allen Pitts
of the ARRL in a press release. “From the tsunami
in Japan to tornadoes in
Missouri, ham radio provided reliable communication networks in the first
critical hours of the events.
Because ham radios are
not dependent on complex
systems, they work when
nothing else is available.
We need nothing between
us but air.”
Terry Runyon, a member of the Palomar Amateur Radio Club, said that
as people are becoming
more addicted to instant
communications through
cell phones, ham radios are
important because during
an emergency, cell phone
signals are cut to allow for
emergency personnel to
communicate, leaving ham
radio operators to help
spread the word on what’s
going on.
If the ground shakes,
Runyon said, a ham radio
operator will be there to
report on the damage. He
said that law enforcement
is also using ham radios as
backup communication devices.

Howard,

radios since 2007. Howard,
who is blind, said he keeps
his radio by his bed and is

In March 2012, the
ARRL listed 702,506 ham
radio operators in the U.S.
and more than 2 million
around the world.
Getting involved with
the radios sounded like
something interesting for
Brian Tagg, who’s been

He said he didn’t know
anything about it when he

T he C oast News I nland E dition Council approves EIR Cities along state Route 78 corridor chip
in $23,000 each for regional marketing
for El Caballo Park
By Promise Yee
By Ellen Wright
ESCONDIDO — The
proposed 8-acre equestrian
El Caballo Park is one step
closer to becoming a reality.
On June 18, the Escondido
City Council approved the
use of $40,000 for an Environmental Impact Report
during the 2014-15 fiscal
year. The report will make
it possible to begin building the park, located across
from the Caballo Trail Head
at 3410 Valley Center Road,
once enough money has
been raised.
“It is not a true project
until the EIR is completed,”
said Library and Community Services Director Loretta
McKinney.
The city approved the
budgeting for the report as
part of the 2014-15 fiscal
year in order to set into motion the process of creating
the park.
The piece of land has
been the subject of debate
between the city and residents since 2011, when the
city originally planned to
use the recreational space
as a water treatment and
distribution facility. The
city planned to build on the
site but the Council decided
not to after learning the site
would cost $6 million to develop.
The project still has a
long way to go until it is completed. The fundraising for
the park will be in the hands
of the community, said McK-
inney.
The nonprofit group El
Caballo Conservancy was
established in March 2013
to help develop the land as a
unique public park focused
on equestrian services, according to their website.
They are asking the community for donations to raise
enough money to build on
the site.
The city funded the
drafting of a master plan
for the park by Wynn-Smith
Landscape
Architecture,
Inc.
The estimated cost of
the park is $10 million. The
park will be built in phases
so building can begin earlier than the entire funding is
raised.
The plan includes
arenas, bull corrals, pens,
bleachers, a bandstand and
more.
The land has been in
use for over four decades by
the Charros de Escondido,
who lease it from the city
and built an arena on the
property.
The Conservancy is celebrating their accomplishments July 27 on the site of
the proposed future park
near the Escondido Humane
Society off of East Valley
Parkway at Bevin Drive.
The event, which takes
place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
will feature pony rides,
horsemanship demonstrations, equine therapy, entertainment and a food truck.
REGION — Cities
along the state Route 78
corridor are banking on regional marketing to attract
more businesses to North
County.
Oceanside approved
$23,000 for annual regional marketing on June 25.
The cities of Carlsbad,
Vista, and Escondido have
also approved funds, and
San Marcos will OK funds
in July.
Once San Marcos is officially on board, a regional logo and campaign will
be launched to attract out
of area businesses.
Cities will continue
their own marketing, but
regional efforts will highlight the collective resources cities share. This
includes regional workers,
colleges and universities,
and housing.
Another big plus North
County has to offer to businesses is available land for
development, and empty
buildings to set up shop.
“More
businesses
within San Diego County are looking for an alternative,” Steve Jepsen,
Oceanside city manager,
said. “We want them to be
aware of the assets North
County has to offer.”
Businesses will bring
in additional revenues and
jobs, and change North
County sprawling bedroom
communities into one collective region to live, work
and play.
Tracey
Bohlen,
Oceanside economic development manager, said regional visioning is the new
economic
development
thinking.
“It’s very attractive to
companies,” Bohlen said.
Oceanside set aside
$35,000 in February for
regional marketing efforts.
The approved $23,000 out
of those funds will get first
year marketing efforts
started. The remainder of
set aside funds will be allocated to future regional
marketing expenses.
The marketing campaign by San Diego Regional Economic Development
Corporation will begin
when all cities have signed
on. Services will include
material development, target audience selection, ad
placement, and aid in business recruitment.
The campaign is anticipated to explode with
a website, materials, and
kick off celebration by the
end of summer.
Collaborative efforts
to develop a regional brand
have been going on for two
years.
A logo has been designed by North Star under the direction of North
County city economic directors, mayors and city
managers, but will be kept
under wraps until the campaign kick off.
“It will be July or August until we roll it out to
the world,” Bohlen said.
“It’s really fresh. It’s a
really good interpretation
of our area.”
Oceanside City Council will get a first look at
the logo June 30, prior to
the regional marketing
kick off date.

er on his property.
John Signorino, who
served as spokesman for
the group at Monday’s
meeting, repeatedly pointed to the cell-tower issue
in their neighborhood,
which he said was the
“UNICEF poster child for
everything wrong with the
ordinance.”
He said the proposed
ordinance, by virtue of
its tower-to-acreage standards, would allow the
property owner to seek a
third tower on the property in question.
He also said that ordinance did not require the
city to seek a third-party
analysis of the wireless
companies’ technical data.
Signorino’s strongest
criticism, however, was
that the ordinance did not
set a minimum distance
between cell towers and
homes and did not mandate wireless companies
to install newer, smaller,
less intrusive tower technology.

“The
doesn’t do it,” Signorino
said repeatedly throughout his 15-minute presentation to the council.
Signorino pointed to
Irvine and Calabasas’ ordinance as examples of
one with distance requirements.
City staff, however,
would later say that Irvine’s ordinance only mandates the distance between
towers and Calabasas’

but nobody’s really spent
much time studying them,
he said.
What they know a lot
about is their physiology —
what isn’t so well known is
how they live in the wild,
and how they live with humans and how giraffe and
humans interact, O’Connor
added.
What he did note, however, was the skittishness
of the giraffe in the wild as
the result of falling prey to
poachers.
“The main challenges
facing giraffe are most recently poaching,” O’Connor
said. “And they’re poached
for several reasons: one reason is for meat, for food. Unfortunately, in the wild, giraffe are quite easy to kill,”
he said.
“Because
sometimes
initially they’ll just stop
and stare at you, so one bullet can take them out, as
opposed to an elephant or
something where it’s harder. And you get quite a lot of
meat for that one bullet….
“If you’re just trying
to get some protein for your
family, if you’re thinking
about the species you could
go after…you can see why
that’s attractive.”
While O’Connor said
that the numbers on certain
species, such as the Reticulated giraffe are uncertain,
researchers think they’ve
declined from about 28,000
in the year 2000 to about
5,000 today.
“So if that trend continues, that subspecies will be
extinct by 2019,” O’Connor
said.
ly ban wireless facilities
in areas where a coverage
gap exists or would ban
certain tower technologies
outright, said Jonathan
Kramer, a wireless law expert contracted by the city
to develop the ordinance.
The proposed ordinance, Kramer said, goes
as far as the city can within the current constraints
of the law.
Wireless companies,
however, said they believed the ordinance goes
beyond the scope of federal law.
Representatives from
Verizon, AT&T and a company that develops the
smaller tower technology
said some of the requirements, including annual
reports to the city’s planning department and the
requirement for companies
to prove the need to install
sites in agricultural and
residential sites, would be
unnecessarily costly and
time-consuming.
Milan Brandon, whose
father Jeff Brandon is the
property owner whose cell
towers sparked the controversy, said the proposed
rules would hamper the
city’s ability to provide
quality wireless coverage
to residents.
“This ordinance would
put our city at an economic disadvantage to other
cities…and hinder progress,” Brandon said. “We
must not delay the wireless
buildout of our city any
longer.”
“We don’t want to see
a government taking of
rights from the carriers,”
said John Osborne, AT&T’s
external affairs director.
AT&T sent a letter to the
city last week that outlined
47 points of contention the
wireless carrier has with
the proposed ordinance.
After the meeting,
Osborne said the fact that
both sides opposed the
city’s rules didn’t necessarily mean that the ordinance was a good compromise.
“We still believe the
ordinance violates AT&T’s
rights and ability to place
infrastructure as designed
to be placed where it is allowed under federal law,”
Osborne said.
That’s why now, working
with the institute, O’Connor and others are trying to
start a program addressing
giraffe conservation.
“People don’t really
think about giraffe as a conservation issue,” he said.
“People don’t even know
that there are nine different
types of giraffe…and some
of the subspecies of giraffe
are in real trouble. The West
African giraffe only has 200
left in the wild; the Nubian
giraffe may already be extinct. So this World Giraffe
Day initiative, I think, is fantastic.”
June 21 marked the
first ever World Giraffe Day.
It’s an initiative started
by the Giraffe Conservation
Foundation, which, according to its website, is meant to
“raise awareness and shed
light on the challenges they
(giraffe) face in the wild.”
What initially brought
O’Connor to study giraffe
was his interest in how they
were able to coexist with cattle and goats, especially as it
pertained to food sources.
Giraffe feed up so high,
O’Connor explained, adding
that cattle and goats feed so
low that their food sources
don’t overlap.
Yet, he found that there
was a shift in how people
were relying on the traditional livelihood of pastoralism.
“And that is where pastoralists keep cattle and
goats and everyday they’ll
take them out into the wild
for grazing,” he said.
But they’re now switching to camels as a new livestock species, perhaps, he
said, because of climate chaos and other reasons.
That’s
something
they’ve never done before,
O’Connor said, but noting
that camel milk is now becoming a new health trend.
And the camels will eat
anything — they’ll move
through an area leaving the
whole of the vegetation denuded, and with camels being so big they can get into
that zone of the giraffe.
Most worrying, O’Connor said, was a myth being
perpetuated, which said
that eating giraffe brains or
bone marrow could protect
people from HIV and AIDS.
“So
they’re
being
slaughtered for that reason,
and it’s completely ineffectual,” he added.
The giraffe conservation program is hoped to
be in place over the next 12
months.
Some of the ongoing
conservation efforts include
working with the communities that overlap with giraffe.
One of their main goals
for helping to implement
conservation efforts with
those communities is not to
be viewed as outsiders.
“We can’t just say, ‘Stop
killing giraffe,’ or, ‘Stop using the wood in the forest,’
without giving them an alternative,” he said.
It’s about building relationships with the communities and with the herders,
which usually entails going
out on walks with them, understanding what their perceptions of the animals are.
One of the best ways
to help a species is to bring
awareness, said O’Connor.
“And that is what World
Giraffe Day is going to do,”
he added.

Love it.
Alexandra starting working
in
restaurants
early on during
her summer breaks from school.
She started at 16 and when she
was 20 moved to New York and
worked in many different types
of restaurants including French,
Italian along with some catering.
Paris and New York are two
great places to cut your culinary
chops and so when Alexandra
and her husband decided to open
their own place, they had plenty
of
experience to fall back on.
She made the move to California three years ago and settled in Encinitas for all of the
same reasons that most of us end
up here.
When the time came to open
their own restaurant, they were
looking for a small place on the
101 and found a nice little corner
spot in the heart of Leucadia.
To Alexandra, making food
becomes an art when you combine passion and great ingredients — something exceptional is
sure to result. Based on what I’ve
sampled, I’d say she is staying
true to that philosophy.
Most everything at the
French Corner is made in house
except for the bread that they
source from a reputable French
baker.
I can attest to the quality of
the bread, it’s very good. Speaking of the bread, my favorites at
French Corner are the baguette
aving made several
trips to the south of
France on business
trips in the past, I’ve developed
a passion for the cuisine and culture.
Sure, the fine dining was
amazing, but it was the simple
pleasures found in the bakeries
and
cafes
that I still crave on a
regular basis.
With the addition of the
French Corner Parisian Bakery
& Café in Leucadia, I am a very
happy plate licker these days.
The French Corner is owned
by Alexandra Palombi-Long, who
is originally from Paris, France.
It’s always a good thing when
the owner grew up surrounded by
the cuisine she is preparing.
You may have seen Alexandra at the Leucadia Farmers Market over the past year awaiting
her new Coast Highway location
to be ready for her venture.
As with many French people,
food was everything for Alexandra growing up, and she remembers being active in the kitchen
with her mom at a very early age.
She claims her mom’s passion for
cooking as an early influence.
One of her early restaurant
memories in Paris was eating at
the famous l’Entrecote, which
sandwich and baguette breakfast
sandwich.
Going back to my time in
France, I was amazed at how
something so simple tasted so
good. The jambon-fromage is my
go-to and I admit I will be adding
this to my weekly lunch schedule.
By the way, that fancy sounding name translates literally into
ham and cheese on a French baguette. Gruyere cheese, butter,
and the optional cornichon pickle
and that’s it.
Of course the quality of the
baguette plays a huge part in this
simple sandwich, and the French
Corner has that covered as I
mentioned. This sandwich is so
simple, yet with the right ingredients, is an elegant alternative to
the overthought sandwiches that
are common amongst restaurants
looking for a differentiator.
Of course it’s not all about
the baguettes. French Corner
offers quiche, frittata, spinach
soufflés, omelets, crepes, and other seasonal savory specials.

T he C oast News I nland E dition A couples’ infertility struggle leads to helping others
By Christina Macone-Greene
CARLSBAD — Having a baby may not be so
easy for some couples.
According to The
Center for Disease Control and Prevention, more
than 7 million Americans
deal with infertility every
day.
Stephanie and Mario
Caballero struggled with
infertility for years, resulting in Stephanie having to undergo 10 artificial
inseminations, surgeries,
13 in vitro fertilizations,
and miscarriages.
The dream of parenthood faded with each
attempt, but new hope
emerged when Stephanie’s cousin became her
surrogate and gave birth
to their twins.
Today, the twins are
12.
It was the heartache
of infertility and ultimately realizing the different
options for parenthood,
which inspired Stephanie,
who is also an attorney, to
open Extraordinary Conceptions in 2005.
Stephanie’s husband,
Mario, joined the company a year later serving as
executive director.
In under a decade, Extraordinary Conceptions,
headquartered in Carlsbad, has transformed into
an international agency
which matches surrogates
and egg donors to couples and individuals, also
known as “intended parents.”
Stephanie admits she
did not have a specific vision when she founded her
company.
“The goal that Mario and I both did have,
though, was to help as
many people have a baby
wherever they were and to
see the joy on their faces,”
Stephanie said. “To help
people in the U.S.A., China, France, Germany or
even Italy — to help someone have a baby is the best
job ever.”
Stephanie wants people to know that there is
no average couple that
comes to them for help.
While numerous issues
cause infertility, others
may face it due to cancer
treatments and even those
born without a uterus.
vitro fertilization after
the age of 40,” he said.
Mario continued, “Some
counties also have limitations about having a child
if someone is in a wheelchair, specific disease
and restrictive policies,
and where surrogacy is
banned.”
Because of this, foreign couples travel to the
U.S.
“They
especially
come to California where
surrogacy is legal and legitimate to have a child;
and, to have the name of
the clients on the birth
certificate the moment
their child takes its first
breath,” Mario said.
Stephanie said when
After struggling with infertility for several years, Stephanie and Mario
Caballero turned to a surrogate to have children. Courtesy photo
And Extraordinary Conceptions also helps gay
couples that yearn to be
parents.
For Mario, who was by
his wife’s side during eight
years of infertility, the
obvious emotional frustrations were also punctuated by the changing of
doctors and not receiving
the right information.
“It seemed that people were more interested
in our wallets than helping us and we learned a
lot over those years,” Mario said.
Invariably, this helped
Mario
and
Stephanie
fine-tune Extraordinary
Conceptions to become a
company of fairness and
compassion.
“What this company
does is educate potential
clients on all the different roads as far as egg
donation and surrogacy to
achieve fertility,” he said.
According to Mario,
since Extraordinary Conceptions opened its doors,
for the first initial years
they helped five to 10 couples per month. Now, they
average 20 to 30 couples
every month.
Mario went on to say
they have expanded internationally for many years
and it continues to be a
focus.
“There are people in
so many countries that
are not allowed to do in
their focus went international they wanted to
make sure they had people on staff who spoke
various languages such as
French, German, Italian,
Spanish, Chinese. Be it
a phone call or “intended
parents” flying thousands
of miles to the United
States, this was a comforting welcome.
Stephanie attributes
their business growth because it comes from the
heart.
After the grieving
process of infertility,
Stephanie said, couples
come to realize there are
other options for becoming parents.
“It may not have been
the way you thought or
wanted — but if you really want it, you can get it,”
she said.
Mario said a common
misconception he runs
into is people thinking a
business like theirs is focused on financial gains.
Not for Extraordinary
Conceptions, Mario said,
because their policy is
helping the client first.
“Even if clients decide not to work with us
after we invested hundreds of hours, just educating them toward making the right choice is our
goal,” Mario said. “Everyone deserves the love of a
child and no one should be
denied that right.”

Military helps TERI build center
SAN MARCOS — TERI (Training, Education, Research & Innovation), a center
for autism and special needs, has partnered
with the Military’s Innovative Readiness
Training (IRT) program to build a new
“Campus of Life” in San Marcos.
The Military’s special IRT program
works to provide real-world training opportunities for service members and units to
prepare them for their deployment missions
while supporting the needs of underserved
communities, including individuals with
special needs and autism. The IRT’s commitment to TERI includes skilled labor and
equipment to train and build the “Campus
of Life.” The value of the IRT labor & equipment is estimated at between 33 percent
and 50 percent of total construction costs
for the new facility.
At the new campus, 555 Dear Springs
Road, the groups launched a campaign titled, “Building Bridges: Connecting Into
the Minds of Children, Adults, with Autism
and Special Needs.” In order to complete
construction of the entire campus, 111,000
square feet on 20 acres, TERI will rely on
donations from individuals, the community,
and foundations for the $30 million project.
Its vision is to begin grading/construction
in Spring 2015 and complete the campus in
2017.
“TERI’s new campus is vital for us to
continue offering services that truly impact
and improve the quality of life for people
with special needs,” said Cheryl Kilmer,
TERI CEO and founder.
Founded in 1980, TERI, Inc. is a private, non-profit whose mission is to improve
the quality of life for children, adults and
seniors with autism, developmental disabilities and learning disabilities, specializing in
serving individuals who have needs, which
cannot be met by other existing programs.

Speakers line up to share their views on medical marijuana dispensaries at Wednesday’s Oceanside City
Council meeting. Council ultimately denied the zoning change. Photo by Promise Yee
O’side council denies zoning request
By Promise Yee
denied zoning on June 25.
OCEANSIDE — After
George Sadler, ownmoving statements for and er of Nature’s Leaf Colagainst medical marijuana lective, made the request
dispensaries, City Council for a zoning change. The
dispensary has been operating in Oceanside during
ongoing litigations with
the city to close it.
Oceanside’s
present
zoning laws explicitly state
that businesses delivering,
storing and selling medical
marijuana are not allowed.
During the meeting
patients spoke about the
benefits of using medical
marijuana, and the difficulty in finding reliable
and safe access to the drug
without the help of city
zoning.
Vey Linville suffers
from emphysema. Doctors
recommended he have a
double lung transplant.
He did not get the
transplant, but did begin
using medical marijuana.
Linville said he has gotten
increasingly healthier.
He is a board member
of the San Diego Chapter
of Americans for Safe Access.
“It offends me to be
treated like a criminal,”
Linville said.
“We’re not doing anything illegal. We don’t
want to do anything illegal. Just give us a tiny
place to stand.”
Other supporters said
regulations are needed to
ensure safe access.
Frank Smith said he
is interested in opening a
medical marijuana distribution center in Oceanside.
He urged the City
Council to set the bar high
with strict regulations that
prompt professionalism.
Joshua Hamlin attorney for Nature’s Leaf
Collective said city regulations would curtail problems of theft, and deny access to minors.
“Robberies do not correspond to regulated dispensaries,” Hamlin said.
“City regulations that
allow access is the way to
go.”
Those in opposition
said it is not the right time
to allow dispensaries.
Federal pharmaceutical standards need to be
established first.
Complaints were made
that anybody can obtain a
doctor’s recommendation
letter for medical marijuana.
A speaker said she
worked next to a pot shop,
and nearby businesses suffered because of the smoke
and unruly customers.
Ray Pearson, president of North Coastal Prevention Coalition, said it’s
about keeping marijuana
away from kids by decreasing its availability.
“Until the federal government regulates the substance for medical reasons,
I’m not able to support it,”
Pearson said.
The
City
Council
unanimously agreed dispensaries are not a business fit.
Mayor Jim Wood said
he was uncomfortable the
zoning change was requested by a for-profit business.
EsCouncilwoman
ther Sanchez said she was
moved by patients’ statements, but feels dispensaries cannot be allowed
until there are medical
standards that identify patients who genuinely need
the drug.
“This is not a business
that would be positive with
the laws as it is today,”
Sanchez said.
“I don’t believe any of
us are here to judge. We’re
focusing on marijuana, the
drug.”
The Planning Commission gave the go ahead to
consider a zoning change
to allow dispensaries in a
3-2-2 vote in May, with two
commissioners absent.
City Council’s decision not to make a zoning
change means Nature’s
Leaf Collective must close
its doors.
City staff acknowledged there are other dispensaries operating in the
city, and code enforcement
and police will continue to
shut them down.

nade detonated, his body
absorbed the brunt of the
blast, severely wounding
him, but saving the life of
his fellow Marine.”
Carpenter
suffered
severe head injuries, a collapsed right lung, multiple
facial fractures, the loss
of a third of his lower jaw
and fragment injuries to his
arms and legs.
Just days after he was
awarded the Medal of Honor, Carpenter flew to Southern California and attended
events and got the chance
to speak with Marines at
Marine Corps Base Camp
Pendleton, Calif. After his
visit was complete, he traveled to Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego to eat
lunch at Duncan Hall and
speak with Marines aboard
depot.
The young corporal
had some words of wisdom
to pass on to present and future Marines.
“Appreciate what you
have because you are a
part of the best military in
the world,” said Carpenter.
“Whenever you are going
through a tough time just
know there is a light at the
end of the tunnel, and take
advantage of that and do
the best you can.”
Carpenter explained to
his audience that he loved
being a Marine and being
around them.
“I wear this medal
for all of you, not for my
benefit,” said Carpenter.
“Everything I do I want to
make past generations and
all of you proud.”
While aboard the depot, Carpenter also visited the base barber shop
to freshen up his look and
took a tour of the Command
Museum, which is where a
copy of his citation will be
placed.
Behind the scenes, he
is just a typical 24-year-old
guy who enjoys staying active and enjoying the small
things in life.
“I like to do anything
that comes my way,” said
Carpenter, a native of Jackson, Miss.
He explained that he
loves to take part in activities such as skydiving, that

deliver a thrill or adrenaline rush.
Carpenter is a full-time
student at the University of
South Carolina, Columbia,
a member of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity and is looking forward to starting his
sophomore year in the fall.
“I love school,” said
Carpenter. “It is excellent
and everybody is really
respectful and treats me
well.”
Carpenter has plans to
travel the world, which was
inspired by his favorite author, Dan Brown.
“Traveling is on the
top of my priority list,” said
Carpenter. “My number one
place I want to go is Italy.”
Carpenter explained
that he had read about Italy’s history and it is a place
he has always wanted to go.
As far as other travel,
he notes he also wants to
visit historical World War
II battle sites and see where
many men had fought to
give Americans the freedoms they have today.
One thing that Carpenter stressed is that he
wants to help people. He is
a motivational speaker and
hopes to help individuals by
spreading awareness about
the Marine Corps and how
professional and excellent
they are, he explained.
Carpenter is scheduled
to spend his summer traveling the United States speaking on television shows and
at different events spreading his message throughout
the country.
“It took me getting
blown up to realize how incredible this life is that we
have,” said Carpenter. “Go
out there and experience
everything you can, while
you can.”

T he C oast News I nland E dition Chicago-based Morningstar, Inc. is widely recognized
as the premier independent
investment research firm for
the breadth and depth of its
quantitative and qualitative
data and guidance related to
mutual fund investments.
Since more people own
mutual funds than any other
investment product, it behooves readers who are fund
investors to become aware of
the Morningstar resources
that can help them improve
their mutual fund investing
activities.
That is the objective of
the weekly Morningstar Investment Education Lecture
Series at the Encinitas Branch
Library.
As a County resident,
your San Diego County Library card provides you online
access ­— at home or from any
other Internet connection — to
the SDCL’s subscription-based
Morningstar database of valuable mutual fund investing
tools and information.
For the novice fund investor, Morningstar’s extensive
website content can be a bit
overwhelming. I’m going to
suggest that, to start with, you
keep things simple and focus
your attention on just three
highly useful Morningstar mutual fund investing tools:
No. 1 Articles & Video
No. 2 FundInvestor Newsletter (Morningstar 500)
No. 3 Fund Reports (aka
PDF Report) These three items represent a “few pounds,” albeit
meaningful ones, from a virtual “ton” of information Morningstar has to offer on mutual
fund investing.
The Library lectures are
aimed at teaching fund investors what’s important to know
and how to use these three
particular items in their investing activities.
To get you started, go
to the SDCL’s website home
page, sdcl.org. On the rightside, click on the Learn >>
caption, which will take you
to the Popular Subjects page.
Here, also on the right-side,
is an All Topics column; click
on the Business & Investing
entry.
The Morningstar listing is
fifth on the list; after clicking
on its name, you’ll be asked for
your SDCL card number and
PIN code.
Once provided, you’ll be
looking at the Morningstar
website dashboard, which provides the above listed items.
To access item No. 3, enter a
fund’s ticker symbol in the
search box.

Exciting new charter school
enrolling now in North County
SAN MARCOS —Taylion San Diego Academy
announces the opening of
its newest location in San
Marcos, offering a variety of unique and customized classes for students
in grades K-12. The school
presents a program that’s
online, at-home, or a blended program of both, for gifted and talented students
who are looking for a more
academically, physically,
and mentally,” said Taylion’s Academic Director
Vicki McFarland.
“Taylion’s philosophy
is that all students can succeed if they truly learn to
believe in themselves.
Our philosophy is to inspire confidence in a child
through our belief that
we can make a significant
impact with each child by
Taylion San Diego Academy provides
students a unique, holistic learning
environment that prepares them for the
21st century academically, physically, and

Academic Director, Taylion San Diego Academy
challenging curriculum different from a tradi-tional
class setting.
The Taylion program is
an option for students K-12,
who find that a traditional
school setting just isn’t a
good fit for them, academically or otherwise (bullies,
etc.).
A large number of their
student population is high
school students.
“Taylion San Diego
Academy provides students
a unique holistic learning
environment that prepares
them for the 21st century
empowering all students
to better understand themselves as individuals.”
Taylion offers three
sep-arate learning environments for students:
an online component, a
home-school program, and
a blended program that includes independent study
and classroom options along
with online components.
School officials say
the program offers individualized learning, a safe
environment with less distraction, higher parent involvement, credit recovery,
credit acceleration, greater
access to new educational
resources, and unparalleled flexibility in utilizing
various instructional delivery methods based on the
particular student’s learning style.
“We are thrilled to be
opening a school here in
San Diego, offering a blended learning solution which
is state of the art, but we are
also very proud of our independent study and home
schooling options as well,”
said Timothy A. Smith,
president of the school’s
parent company, Learning
Matters Educational Group.
“We feel that we are
going to be able to serve our
students in the San Diego
area very well with highly
qualified teachers —dynamic teachers that are going to be able to personalize
instruction for each child.”
Taylion belongs to a
group of charter schools
that began in Arizona in
1996.
The San Marcos campus is located at 100 N. Rancho Santa Fe Rd. #119, San
Marcos, CA 92069.

Academy of Arts and Sciences...
A leader in the frontier of educational options
For students who fall
behind, AAS can help turn
things around with our
award winning credit recovery courses. Our curriculum is designed to ensure
that students receive credit
for what they already know
and supports them with
dedicated teachers that will
build mastery in the areas
they need to complete their
courses.
Our credit recovery
courses are available free
of charge during the school
year and as part of our free
summer school as well.
Credit recovery courses are
available in all core subject
areas (Math, English, Science and Social Studies and
some elective areas).
Academy of Arts and
Sciences is a leader in the
newest frontier of educational options: online learning.
AAS, a leading free public
charter school of choice for
students in grades K-12, offers a blended (online and
on site) customized learning
program. Students engage
in an exceptional learning
experience that blends innovative online learning with
critical face-to-face and lab
time. At Academy of Arts
and Sciences, students will
be able to access a diverse
range of Arts and Science
electives.
“We understand that
students learn best when
their education is tailored to
The flexibility
of blended learning
provides choice
for students.”
Sean McManus
CEO
their needs, which is why a
key tenant of the Academy
of Arts & Sciences philosophy is flexibility,” said CEO
Sean McManus. “With this
instructional model, on site
and off site time can be adjusted to fit individual student needs. The flexibility
of blended learning provides
choice for students.”
The school utilizes cutting edge 21st century curriculum. Students are able to
access the curriculum twenty four hours a day, and have
the flexibility to participate
in a wide variety of events,
activities and experiences
that enhance the learning
experience. AAS also allows
students the opportunity
to access a wide variety of
world language, humanities,
media and technology, engineering and robotics, app
and game design as part of
the rich elective program.
Online learning differs
from traditional schools in
that classes do not take place
in a building, but rather at
home, on the road, or wherever an Internet connection
can be found. Because of
this, students take courses
online with support from
their teacher via phone,
online Web meetings, and
sometimes even face to face.
This new way of learning allows the parent to take
an active role in the student’s
learning and to really become a partner with their
child. The parent (or "Learning Coach") keeps the student on track in line with the
provided lessons plans. In addition to the online courses,
AAS provides plenty of opportunities to connect online
and offline with other AAS
students and families. The
Academy of Arts and Sciences staff is very active in the
community and can often be
found interacting with families at Beach Clean Up Days,
various community festivals,
and organized activities that
take place at their Learning
Centers.
An online education offers students the opportunities to learn in a small setting
with a course schedule that
is tailored to meet their individual learning styles and
needs. This unique learning environment meets the
needs of all types of learners
and offers solutions to many
different educational challenges. Many students find
that learning in the comfort
of their own home allows
them be successful in ways
never dreamt of before!

Zier feels a draft and

Whack,
whack,
whack.
It was the sound filling the San Diego State
batting cage of baseballs meeting bats.
But Tim Zier, the
former Escondido High
star, longed to hear the
ring of his cell phone.
Zier and Brad Haynal, his SDSU teammate
and best friend, were
building calluses by hitting on draft day. The
second baseman and
catcher were pounding
baseballs under the sun
while their aspirations
were shooting for the
moon.
The draft was entering its anxious latter
rounds and the pair retreated to their comfort
zone to preserve their
sanity.
Disappointment for
Zier visited the previous

Baseball player
spring when the draft
came and went without
his name being called.
“It was definitely not enjoyable,’’ Zier
said. “I couldn’t watch
it this time.’’
Instead of staring at
the MLB Network, Zier
zeroed in on fastballs
and curveballs. But he
thirsted for a change up,
seeking joy in contrast
to last June’s heartache.
Suddenly Zier’s cell
started vibrating with
texts flooding his device.
“I said what the
heck and gave it a look,’’
Zier said.
The messages were
different but with the
same theme: each one
offered congratulations.
“I got the call right
after that,’’ Zier said. “I
was a dream come true.’’
The Phillies selected Zier in the 21st round,
and round and round
went his emotions. A decision he made years ago
— taking baseball over
football — paid off.
Zier earned 10 athletic letters at Escondido, and that included
two phenomenal seasons
with the Cougars when
he rushed for 2,201
yards and collected 31
touchdowns.
“It was tough to let
go of the other sports,
especially
football,’’
Zier said. “I really had a
passion for football. But
it’s all coming together
now and it looks like I
made the right choice.’’
He exits SDSU with
a slew of records — most
career hits, games and
at-bats — and one big
distinction — being
among the pallbearers
for his beloved coach,
Tony Gwynn.
Zier calls the last
month or so “a surreal
experience’’ as he turns
the page into becoming
a professional.
Haynal knows the
type of player the Phillies are getting in the
5-foot-10,
195-pound
Zier, a two-time AllMoutain West selection.
“He is gritty, hardnosed and he will give it
his best shot,’’ said Haynal, a former Rancho
Bernardo High star.
What Haynal relinquishes is a roommate
and best friend. The
two become inseparable
at SDSU and that won’t
end with Zier playing
for the Phillies and Haynal going to the Marlins.
“We will always stay
close,’’ Haynal said.
“He’ll be in my wedding
and I’ll be in his.’’
That
can
wait.
What’s important is Zier’s marriage with the
Phillies.
“They’re getting a
guy who will go to work
every day and give it everything he has,’’ Zier
said. “I’m going to work
my tail off every time
and play the game I’ve
always played. That’s
being a blue-collar player and just having fun.’’
But while looking
ahead, he seems to exemplify the slogan, “Aztec For Life.’’

By Aaron Burgin
REGION — A 6-foottall man clad in Jordan-brand apparel stood
in the center of Alliant
International University
on Monday afternoon.
If you weren’t an
NBA fan, you might wonder why a man of such
modest
stature
commanded the attention of
the 100 or so young basketball players seated at
his feet, hanging on his
every word.
That man was seven-time NBA All Star
point guard Chris Paul
of the Los Angeles Clippers.
Paul, 29, was a guest
speaker at the Jared
Dudley Camp of Opportunity, a local camp for
elite players hosted by
Jared Dudley, Paul’s
Clippers teammate and
a former San Diego Section player of the year at
Horizon High School.
Dudley’s camp, in
its second year, attracts
top middle school and
high-school players from
across San Diego — including a number from
North County — who
participate in skill drills
and competitive games.
It also included several
NBA guests, including
Phoenix Suns forward
P.J. Tucker.
Dudley created the
camp to give San Diego
basketball players the
opportunity to showcase
their talents, while also
learning from professional basketball player
what it requires to play
basketball at its highest
levels.
But the highlight of
the camp was Paul, one
of the NBAs biggest superstars, who imparted
pearls of advice for the
pubescent ears, includ-
ing respecting the game
and its teachers, continuing to pursue your
dreams despite not having early success (Paul
didn’t start play or start
on his varsity team until
his junior year in high
school) being a selfless
player and preparing for
life beyond basketball.
“If I play another seven years in the league,
I will have played 17
years…I’ll be 36,” Paul
said. “I’ll have a lot of
life to live. As they say,

Turning
65 this
year?
Understand
your
Medicare Options. Medicare is a great start, but
it never was designed to
cover everything.
For
example, it only pays 80
percent for the Medicare
allowed amount of covered
healthcare expenses. The
rest comes out of your own
pocket.
So, depending on your
personal situation, you’ll
want to review your choices for getting coverage beyond Original Medicare.
At a minimum you will
want to have Part D drug
plan coverage.
Even if you are still
working or retired and are
covered by your company’s
health plan, you are probably paying something in
premiums every month.
Now that you are about to
turn 65, you could get on a
Medicare Advantage Plan
where the monthly premi-
Original Medicare
coverage may
not be enough
um is $0. Another option
would be a Medicare Supplemental Plan that usually has lower premiums
than most company insurance plans.
Selecting the right
coverage can be confusing,
and making the right decision might be more complex than you expect.
You have a window
of opportunity:
Three
months before your 65th
birthday month, the month
of your 65th birthday,
three months after your
65th birthday month (seven months), where you can
not be denied Medicare
Insurance. By planning
ahead, your Medicare coverage can start on the first
day of the month you turn
65.

Medicare options, contact:

Don’t let pain and neuropathy hold you back from enjoying life.
Could this be your solution to neuropathy, numbness or pain?
Do you have any of the
following symptoms? Pins and
needles feeling? Numbness
in the hands or feet? Tingling
or burning sensations? Weakness in the arms or legs? Sharp
shooting or burning pains?
If so, you may have a condition called Peripheral Neuropathy.
Numbness, tingling, and
pain are an extremely annoying problem.
It may come and go...interrupt your sleep...and even
make your arms or legs feel
weak at times.
Maybe you’ve even been
to other doctors and they
claim all the tests indicate you
should feel fine.
More Drugs Are Not The
Solution. A common treatment
for many nerve problems is
the ‘take some pills and wait
and see’ method.
While this may be nec-
essary for temporary relief of
severe symptoms, using them
long term is no way to live.
Some of the more common drugs given include pain
pills, anti-seizure mediations,
and anti-depressants — all of
which can have serious side
effects.
My name is Dr. Jeff
Listiak. I’ve been helping people with neuropathy and nerve
problems for more than eight
years. Neuropathy can be
caused by Diabetes, Chemotherapy, Toxins, etc.
It may also be compounded by poor posture or a degenerating spine stressing the
nerves.
The good news is that
NeuropathyDR™ combination
treatments have proven effective in helping patients with
these health problems.
Here’s what one of my patients had to say:
“I had been feeling very
sharp pains in my feet… they
just felt like they were on fire.
I just couldn’t stand it… every
night for the last year or two.
I’m so excited today to
tell Dr. Jeff that four days in a
row I have felt no pain whatsoever.” — Marilyn
You could soon be enjoying life...without those aggravating and life-disrupting
problems.
Don’t Miss This Limited
Time Offer.
It’s time for you to find
out if NeuropathyDR™ treatment protocols could be your
neuropathy solution.
For the next 14 days only,
$30 will get you a complete
NeuropathyDR™
Analysis
that I normally charge $197
for!
What does this offer include? Everything.
• An in-depth discussion
about your health and wellbeing where I will listen…really
listen…to the details of your
case.
• A posture, spine, range
of motion, and nerve function
examination.
• A full set of specialized
x-rays (if necessary) to determine if a spinal problem is
contributing to your pain or
symptoms.
• A thorough analysis of
your exam and x-ray findings
so we can start mapping out
your plan to being pain and
numbness free.
• And, if after the thorough analysis we feel we can’t
help you, we’ll tell you that
right away.
Until July 18, 2014 you
can get everything I’ve listed
here for only $30.
So, you’re saving a considerable amount by taking me
up on this offer.
Call (760) 230-2949 now.
We can get you scheduled
for your NeuropathyDR™
Analysis as long as there is an
opening before July 18.
Our office is located just
off Interstate 5 and Encinitas
Boulevard.
When you call, tell us
you’d like to come in for the
NeuropathyDR™ Analysis so
we can get you on the schedule and make sure you receive
proper credit for this special
analysis.
Sincerely,
Dr. Jeff Listiak, D.C.
P.S. Remember, you only
have until July 18 to reserve
an appointment. Why suffer
for years in misery?
That’s no way to live, not
when there could be help for
your problem.
Take me up on my offer

about it, Francine
Filsinger is having
a positive influence on the
arts in San Diego. Working in
multiple arenas, she creates
invariably remarkable results
with her widely ranging projects. She makes things happen.
Within her first six
months as member of the
Commission for the Arts of
the city of Encinitas, Filsinger had successfully completed
the production of the first Encinitas Student Film Festival.
Her background in filmmaking and membership on the
executive board of directors
for the San Diego Filmmakers
Association allowed her to rally many award winning associates to work with area high
school and college students for
a engaging film symposium,
culminating weeks later in
the screening of the students’
short films and a red carpet
awards ceremony.

The recent juried art

women’s issues, was a first step
towards another important

become a continually

The

breakthrough
came
with the 1975 concert
release, the double LP,
“Alive.” Featuring the
hit “Rock and Roll All
Nite,” it opened the door
to a string of hit studio
albums that continued
through 1979’s “Dynasty.” Simmons, in a separate late-June phone interview, said the group
could sense that something was happening by
the time of “Alive.”
“It wasn’t about the
albums,” Simmons said.
“It was about the crowds

hunger to know as much

that Kiss could have kept
the secrecy that came
with the makeup and
helped create a largerthan-life image for Kiss.
“I think that certainly in all walks of
life in terms of public
figures, there is a certain mystique that is
gone because everything
is known,” Stanley observed during a mid-June
teleconference interview
with a group of reporters. “I think mystique
is healthy. And I think
to glamorize and fantasize is a good thing. I’m
not sure that Kiss could

we did initially in this

Earlier this year,
Kiss received a big dose
of vindication when the
original edition of the
band — singer/guitarist
Paul Stanley, bassist/
singer Gene Simmons,
guitarist Ace Frehley
and drummer Peter Criss
— were inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame.
Today’s edition of
Kiss — with guitarist
Tommy Thayer having
replaced Frehley and
Eric Singer on drums —
is following up that event
with a tour that marks
the 40th anniversary of
the group.
Obviously, Kiss has
had a major impact on
rock and roll — in terms
of albums sold (more than
100 million worldwide),
with the group’s groundbreaking
pyro-filled
stage shows and with
the makeup the original
band members wore that
gave a blueprint for any
number of acts (Slipknot, Daft Punk, the
Residents) to don masks
or other costumes to create stage characters for
their bands.
The makeup — with
Stanley as the starchild,
Simmons as the demon,
Frehley as the space ace
and Criss as the catman
— remains perhaps Kiss’
greatest signature, and it
helped create a mystique
that was a big part of the
band’s appeal during the
1970s and very early ‘80s
— the group’s peak years
as hitmakers.

Filsinger spent most of
her professional career in
international business. She
states, “Being exposed to different cultural perspectives
helped to equip me to look
beyond the surface, to look
for a deeper understanding
of what was before me. I also
found myself having to separate my perceptions from
my own cultural biases.” She
finds that in her artistic pursuits this approach helps her
view a subject with fresh,
unconventional and unconstructed vision.
A native of Newport,
R.I., Filsinger began formal
piano training at the tender
age of 8. She reflects, “It
seems that my entire life
has been spent cradled in
the arms of artistic expression. I began my adventure
as a child studying the classics, falling in love with the
piano as the perfect conduit
for connecting the child artist with her innermost feelings.”
She continues, “It was
there that I learned to perceive the world around me
through rhythm. I soon discovered rhythm is everywhere. It’s found in sounds,
in shapes, in light — all moving in unique patterns that
intertwine with one another
to tell a story. I’ve pursued
that sense of chaotic order

ever since.”
In considering her artistic evolution, Filsinger tends
to think in terms of mediums.
Having developed a
proficiency in a number of
disciplines including music,
writing, acting, decorative
arts and fine art photography, she finds that they are
interdependent, with each
discipline giving insight into
the others.
Filsinger explains, “l
Iook at photography as the
medium which best allows
me to apply the important
characteristics of the others
for the greatest effect. For
example, from my education
in classical piano, I learned
to look for harmonious and
dissonant chord progressions and how their phrasing
choices changed the entire
feel and perception of the
piece.”
In her photography,
Filsinger most often contemplates a subject for quite
some time before actually
beginning to photograph it.
She muses, “In that quiet
interlude, I find the rhythmical message of the subject — how it moves, how it
speaks. As I apply light to
it, its innermost expression
is exposed or hidden, depending upon how I feel the
message is to be communicated. Some images shout
and others whisper; the light
is the conduit of revelation.
Very much in the same way
I shape the expression of a
musical composition, it is the
same end goal but just a different process to achieve it.”
A published national
and international award winning fine art photographer
with credentials too numerous to list, Filsinger relates
intimately with her subjects.
Oceanside Museum of
Art Executive Director Daniel Foster describes Filsinger’s works as “quiet and understated photos that speak
loudly.” Her images are
simultaneously mysterious
and familiar, inviting the
viewer to delve deeply into
them.
Filsinger states, “If my
imagery stays with you long
after it has left your sight,
whispering a message only
you can hear, then I will have
achieved my purpose.”
A selection of Filsinger’s
photographic images will be

“We’ve heard an awful lot of claims. Those
claims need to be tested,” said Ken Lounsbery,
an attorney for the local

The City Council
unanimously voted in favor of obtaining such a

The report will be
presented to city council
at its July 23 meeting, at
which time the initiative
will be formally placed
on the ballot.
“Now we are sending
an initiative to the voters,” Mayor Sam Abed
said. “It’s not about a
few dollars or revenue to
the city. This is about the
interests of the country
club community. Period.”
Many school districts
also highlighted the multitude of ways that administrators can reach out to parents
and community members
with quick information in
an emergency via websites,
social media, and automatic
phone call systems.
Walters and Lovely said
their districts made use of
these communication systems during the recent fires.
Moving forward, many
of the districts are focusing
on enhanced training for
school staff.
This fall, more Carlsbad administrators will be
trained in assessing potential threats to campus safety.
Walters added the district is looking to train more
school staff on first aid and
CPR.
Both Lovely and Wal-
ters also said that their districts focus on maintaining
heightened awareness at all
schools for suspicious activities, including a stranger on
campus. They said that their
districts offer a number of
ways to report concerning
activity, including anonymous tip lines.

slightly
with the Grand Jury report,
Escondido Union and other
North County districts said
that security infrastructure

Walters pointed out that

Character-education is
entwined with being an IB
learner, she explained.
Smith said the IB program really engages students, and that it’s a lot
more interesting, which
leads to a lot less discipline
problems because there’s
more participation.
“If you’re bored in
class you’re going to start
goofing around,” she said.
“So their kids are being
challenged, they’re active;
they’re moving around.
And when kids are asking
the questions, instead of
the teachers asking the
questions, they’re a lot
more involved.”
Ferreira said it isn’t
just the standards when it
comes to how the program
monitors students’ understanding of the materials.
“STAR testing, and we’re
moving into Common Core,
would just be the knowledge based,” she said.
“This is actually working
with the whole child, and
really working on their social, emotional needs; music and artistic abilities,
academic abilities.”
Common Core standards are standards, which
the schools have had before, Ferreira said. “Common Core is kind of the
‘what.’ These schools will
still be meeting those standards, however, IB is how
they’ll be teaching it,”

REMEMBERING ROUTE 395
The 14-foot-by-70-foot mural commissioned by the Vista Village Business Association is at the Lush Coffee and Tea building
at North Michigan Avenue and Main Street in Vista. The mural commemorates Vista’s presence along historic 395, which
once took travelers from San Diego to Canada, meandering through downtown Vista. The winning design was created by
Kait Matthews, owner of the co-op ArtBeat on Main Street gallery. In creating this signature piece, Matthews worked artists
Cyndi Kostylo, Mo McGee, Raziah Roushan and Phyllis Swanson. For more information, visit artbeatonmainstreet.com.

fervor, how crazy the
fans were getting. So we
weren’t looking at the
charts or the numbers
or anything like that because remember, we’re
playing five and six shows
a week… But we did realize that within a year and
a half of our debuting, we
were playing Anaheim
Stadium, headlining.
“We knew something
was up,” he said. “We
don’t have any hit singles,
and here we are (in Anaheim) headlining over all
sorts of bands who have
been around for decades.”
Since
then
there
have been albums that
bombed (“Music From
‘The Elder’), others that
have been hits (“Crazy
Nights”), lineup changes,
an unmasking that lasted from 1983 to 1996, a
reunion of the original
lineup and a return of
the makeup and several
recent arena-filling tours
with the current lineup.
This set the stage for
the band’s induction in
the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame. The Hall, though,
insisted that only the original band members would
be inducted. Stanley and
Simmons protested, saying
Thayer, Singer and
other members who had
been in Kiss should also
be included.
The Hall stood firm,
so Stanley and Simmons
refused to perform at
the induction event — although the original four-
some, Thayer and Singer
did attend.
Simmons and Stanley
both said they enjoyed the
festivities.
“It was great to see
Ace and Peter,” Simmons
said. “It was very cor-

dial, very celebratory.
We hugged and we patted
each other on the back
because oh so many years
ago, we did something big
together.
“The fact that not everybody can last a marathon is not the point. At
the beginning of the race,

you start together and you
celebrate that.”
So with induction
in the rear view mirror,
Stanley, Simmons, Thayer
and Singer are doing what
they consider far more
important than awards —
playing live.
This summer’s 40th
anniversary tour (with
Def Leppard as the opener), Stanley promised,
will more than live up to
past live extravaganzas.
“I believe that this
is the greatest and really
the best stage that we’ve
ever had,” Stanley said.
“The band is firing on all
cylinders, so between that
and the fact that we’re
psyched up for this and
we’re celebrating our 40th
year, we’re out there to do
a victory lap, although the
race isn’t over yet.
“There will be more
races. But this is a celebration of everything
we’ve done until today.”
