Mayor pitches stepped-up, mandatory water-conservation measures for city

OB’s iconic youth hostel changes hands, not mission

Mayor Kevin Faulconer is recommending the city moves to “drought-alert” status, the second phase of citywide water conservation calling for mandatory measures for all residents and businesses. The new measures would go into effect Nov. 1, pending City Council approval. “San Diegans have responded to the statewide drought by conserving water at impressive levels,” Faulconer said in an

Oct. 7 statement. “Unfortunately, a record heat wave and a dwindling water supply require us to do even more. I am recommending to the City Council that San Diego adopt mandatory conservation measures to ensure that we all do our part to conserve as much water as possible.” In 2011, the city enacted permanent SEE WATER, Page 8

The Ocean Beach youth hostel is under new ownership and management, but it’s business as usual at the establishment. One of OB’s oldest buildings, the Ocean Beach International Backpackers Hostel, at 4961 Newport Ave., was recently sold by immediate past owner John Asher to USA Hostels Inc. USA Hostels also operates hostels in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter, as well as in Hollywood and San Francisco. “[USA Hostels has] been in business for more than 20 years and we’ve been in the San Diego market for more than 20 years,” said Maria Minos, USA’s chief operating officer. “We’ve always wanted to get our hands on this hostel, so it was great timing that he (Asher) was ready to retire and move on to

THURSDAY · OCTOBER 9, 2014 THE PENINSULA BEACON

Midway merchants, planners lurch forward in effort to rekindle a viable business improvement district BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON A historic first step was taken by Midway merchants to reform a long-dormant business improvement district (BID) as interested parties held their first meeting Sept. 24 at the Hampton Inn San Diego-SeaWorld/Airport area hotel. Spearheaded by Hampton Inn general manager Victor Ravago, turnout was low, but morale was high for that first meeting. Local merchants, community planners and Rachel Gregg, a community

representative from California’s 78th District Speaker of the Assembly Toni Atkins’ office, met to discuss reassembling a broadly representative merchants group. “We need a real collective voice for the Midway area,” said Ravago, noting the new group may look to local government officials to “find out what assistance we can get” in rebooting the BID. Ravago noted local legislators’ offices may also prove useful in attempting to secure some “development dollars to invest in revitalizing the area.”

Three-strike suspected rapist admits guilt in assault on maid BY NEAL PUTNAM | THE BEACON

Deputy District Attorney Trisha Amador. He will get another five years consecutively for inflicting great bodily injury to the maid and 15 years consecutively for having three robbery convictions from 1988 and 1989, said Amador. Sentencing was set for Dec. 12 by San Diego Superior Court Judge Louis Hanoian. Stevens withdrew an insanity plea that he entered May 30. The plea came just before jury selection was to start in his trial on Oct. 6. Hanoian said he will dismiss the remaining charges of making a criminal threat to the victim, penetration with a foreign object, felony assault and three other sex charges in light of the other

guilty plea. Stevens is slated for a Nov. 6 trial involving an unrelated attack on a 93year-old woman in an El Cajon retirement home when he allegedly tried to smother the victim with a pillow. He is also accused of robbing her of rings worth $19,000, according to court documents. He is also accused of elder abuse and burglary. The woman activated a medical-alert button, and Stevens fled. The El Cajon incident took place one day before the hotel rape. Stevens has pleaded not guilty to those charges related to the elderly woman. Stevens is being held on $4 million bail.

Ravago pointed out the task of re-activating the business group is made easier by the fact that the “entity is still there with the city,” despite the fact that’s it’s been inactive for several years. Ravago said reconstituting the Midway BID is a simple matter of hosting three consecutive meetings of prospective group members before asking the City Countil to “reinstate the BID in aformal capacity.” “After that, we’ll be able to work on beautification and cleanup efforts, as well as homeless isues in the area,” Ravago said. “It’s a very significant problem,” said Denton of homelessness in the Midway area, adding efforts elsewhere in the city to address homelessness tend to displace it elsewhere to places like Midway. Fledgling Midway BID members also agreed that the recently closed Midway Postal Office could prove invaluable in redevelopment, bringing new business and a fresh perspective to the area. It was also brought out at the Midway BID formation meeting that there is $50,000 in unused funds held over from the previous BID for the new group being formed to work with. Ravago suggested it also might behoove the group to link with other civic organizations, like the Point Loma Association (PLA), which have a long history of, and experience with, community improvement. Denton said the sports arena site with its numerous tenants will be a cornerstone of any type of redevelopment going on in the area. “Everything hinges on the sports arena and what ultimately happens around there,” she said.

A suspected rapist admitted in court Oct. 6 that he sexually assaulted a maid at a Sports Arena Boulevard hotel and will face a sentence of 65 years to life in prison because he has been convicted of three felonies in the past. Christopher R. Stevens, 45, admitted he committed the rape during a burglary of a vacant room the victim was cleaning on Dec. 21, 2012 at the Wyndham Garden Hotel in the Midway area. Stevens had been staying at the hotel. Stevens would normally face 15 years to life for a rape during a burglary, but his three-strike felony convictions mean the sentence is tripled to 45 years, said

After initial city gaffes, OB Elementary gets new permanent crosswalk Parents, school, community leaders finally win campaign for needed safety measure

BY TONY DE GARATE | THE BEACON There’s a new crosswalk at Ocean Beach Elementary — and this time, no one’s taking it away. The twisting, turning tale of the nowyou-see-it, now-you-don’t crosswalk at Ocean Beach Elementary is finally over. And like a well-told story that precedes kindergarten naptime, the ending is happy and satisfying. Dozens of grateful parents, community leaders and citizens — as well as a few television camera crews — showed up bright and early to the official ribbon-cutting Oct. 1 of the mid-block crosswalk to observe the event. Most gathered to offer thanks to the group of volunteers who rallied community support to make it happen. And more than a few, undoubtedly, planned to cast a watchful eye to make sure this

crosswalk — unlike the one it has replaced — stays right where it is. Ever so briefly, there was a crosswalk at the site several years ago in the middle of the 4700 block of Santa Monica Avenue, which allowed students to cross from the north side of the street to the 100-plus-year-old school on the south. It also connected two kindergarten classrooms on the north side to what those students call the “big school.” But, in an incident that could be a case study for bureaucratic gaffes, a city crew came back within days to undo the crosswalk and pour black paint on top of the yellow lines. City officials said they had no choice when someone realized the site lacked a streetlight, which by law must accompany a mid-block crosswalk.

Public pressure finally paid off when the streetlight was installed in January, followed by a new crosswalk late in the school year. When he arrived on the job two years ago, school principal Marco Drapeau found the crosswalk was one of the first matters on the agenda. “There was a file this thick waiting for me in my office when I got here. We had a lot of people working on this a long time,” he said. Many of those people were on hand for the commemoration. There was Suzy Reid, a mother who serves in leadership roles on the school’s Site Governance Team and School Site Council, who succeeded in enlisting the support of the Ocean Beach Town Council last year. So was Nicole Burgess, a pedestrian-bicy-

cling activist who helped secure a state grant to buy safety equipment for the crossing guards. It was also a special day for Joseph “Moondoggie” Piña, who stepped forward to volunteer as a crossing guard three years ago after the school canceled its Safety Patrol. (Students who used to work as crossing guards were deemed too young when the school changed to a kindergarten-through-fourth-grade configuration.) “I went to a meeting and asked why there weren't crossing guards, and (former principal) Maggie Johnson said, 'Oh, are you volunteering?’” Piña said. After a week of trying to control speeding cars, illegal U-turns and double parking, Piña had second thoughts. “They just issued me a vest and put

Peninsula YMCA’s bid to build, operate NTC pool back to square one BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON The latest update on progress on the long-awaited public pool proposed at NTC Liberty Station is: well, there is none. “The request for proposal (RFP process) has closed and there was only one bidder — the Peninsula YMCA. Its bid was deemed ‘not responsive’ by the city,” said Craig Gustafson, press secretary/director of media relations for Mayor Kevin Faulconer. “The city is currently evaluating the next steps to move forward.” That next step, he said, might involve the city’s requesting Peninsula Y to tweek its RFP bid. The rejection left Peninsula YMCA offi-

cials with some questions. “The YMCA’s proposal was not accepted. It was deemed non-responsive and the RFP was canceled,” said Vince Glorioso, Peninsula Y’s executive director. Adding the city “did not say why” the Y’s RFP bid was rejected, Glorioso said it could stem from problems with “amortization,” the paying off of debt with a fixed repayment schedule in regular installments. “One of the things that happened in our conversation with the city was the idea of amortizing the capital investment in the RFP, which was for a concessions agreement on a 10-year basis,” said Glorioso. “That was one of the challenges. Some adjustments needed to be made to the RFP

for potential reimbursement of capital costs.” Glorioso said the Y would still consider renegotiating terms for the pool RFP, however. “Certainly, we’d be open to that conversation,” he said. YMCAs currently operate more than 20 public pools countywide. Earlier this year, the city issued an RFP for an organization to come in and develop, operate and lease out the proposed 20,000-square-foot aquatic center in Building 619 in NTC (the former Naval Training Center), which was previously a child-care center. Julie Cramer, spokeswoman for grassroots group Families for a Point Loma Swimming Pool, said there’s still an unde-

niable need for a new community aquatic center. “In regards to the need for the pool complex, support for the project continues to be strong,” Cramer said. “We recently worked with a group of graduate students from the University of San Diego in their nonprofit leadership program. Their project involved talking to community members about the need for a pool in Point Loma. Across all the stakeholders they talked to, there was a continued consensus of support.” Glorioso said previously, however, that there could be a “hitch” in owning/managing any new NTC aquatic center involving lease terms.

me out there. It was total chaos. I was out here getting run over. I didn’t want to come back the next week,” he said. Just when his morale was at an ebb, a second volunteer — Wayne Simard – stepped forward, and the two realized they made a good team. “He’s the good cop, I’m the bad cop,” Simard said. “He was like, ‘We have to be friendly. Use the nice voice.’ I’m like, ‘I’m from Boston. Don’t mess with me.’” Since then, other volunteers — Joe Grau, Julie Frieburger, Matt Wood, Caleb Webb and Jack Shaw — have stepped forward, but Piña and Simard are the two who maintain the highest visibility. “It’s very important to listen to Moondoggie and Mr. Wayne,” police officer Amber Banning said at morning assembly. “They are out here to keep you safe.”

QUICKHITS >> EX-POINT LOMAN FACES CHARGES OF MURDERING WIFE A former Point Loma man remains in jail on $5 million bail on a murder charge involving the death of his wife in 2007. The woman’s remains were found in a desert in 2007. Anthony Edward Simoneau, 46, was extradited from Hawaii and pleaded not guilty Sept. 29 to a charge that he murdered Fumiko Ogawa Simoneau, who was last seen alive in their Point Loma home on Jan. 2, 2007. Her remains were uncovered Jan. 20, 2007 in the Anza-Borrego Desert, but were not identified until 2011. An affidavit for Simoneau’s arrest was sealed by a judge on Sept. 4. Simoneau was arrested that same day in Honolulu, where he had moved after he left Point Loma. A date for the preliminary hearing was to be set on Oct. 8 in El Cajon Superior Court. The case is in East County because the wife’s body was found in the AnzaBorrego Desert, said Deputy District Attorney Kurt Mechals. The evidence against Simoneau has not been discussed in court. Simoneau remains in the South Bay Detention Facility. — Neal Putnam

SEN. BLOCK TO HOST TOWN HALL MEETING IN POINT LOMA California Sen. Marty Block (D-39th Dist.) is holding a series of legislative Town Hall meetings between his staff and constituents to field feedback and suggestions on everything from education to water policies and from health care to transportation and other state business. Among the Town Halls scheduled is one in Point Loma on Monday, Oct. 20 at the San Diego Foundation, located at 2508 Historic Decatur Road, Suite 200, from 6 to 8 p.m. ”Many great bills have started with constituents and local organizations, and it was through discussions like these that we delivered accomplishments for San Diego,” said Block.“Partnering with the local community colleges, the San Diego Chamber of Commerce and a number of groups, we sent SB 850 to the governor’s desk to expand our workforce preparation at community colleges through additional bachelor-degree programs. “Along with the county of San Diego and local environmental organizations, we passed SB 1395 to improve beach water-quality testing and reporting,” he said.”And with local small business organizations like the Ocean Beach MainStreet Association, we had signed into law SB 1295 to reduce red tape for businesses as SEE BRIEFS, Page 8

new things in his life,” she said. Asher could not be reached for comment. Minos said USA Hostels took over the local facility on Sept. 5 just before escrow closed on the building. “It was one of the first buildings here in Ocean Beach and was built in 1909 as The Pearl a few months after the streetcar line came in,” said Susan James of the Ocean Beach Historical Society. “It was a 20-room hotel and became the Newport Hotel in 1914.” James said the Newport Hotel was shuttered for a while when Asher bought it and reopened it as an international youth hostel in 1995. There isn’t much that’s garden variety about Ocean Beach International Backpackers Hostel aside from its youthful appeal. “We provide 24-hour security and guests cannot bring strangers in, even if it’s their brother,” said Minos, adding the hostel can accommodate about 100 people. “We have a lot of social activities that you don’t find in hostels or bed and breakfasts but do find in hotels and resorts,” she said. Hostel activities include trips to San Diego points of interest and Tijuana

as well as trips outside the local area, like to Magic Mountain in the L.A. area. “This hostel will be offering a lot more in the way of activities,” promised Minos. She said changes may include the possibility of a name change. But she said that won’t happen immediately.

repainting, new door locks and new bunk beds,” Minos said. “We have an exclusively designed bunk bed that we’ve developed ourselves that we’ll be installing. “We really like to keep the flavor of the local areas adding spices to the broth to make it even more a flavor of the neighborhood,” she said. There is a two-week limit on stays at the OB hostel. Minos said the hostel business is seasonal, like much of tourist-oriented San Diego. She said most hostels tend to draw visitors in their 20s and 30s, but she said Ocean Beach gets its fair share of 50-plus-age clients. “We get a lot of people who used to do hostelling in their 40s and older,” she said. “Beach hostels draw a majority of European travelers with a healthy sprinkling of Asian travelers.” The hostel COO said about 15 to 20 percent of OB hosteliers are from elsewhere in America, with the rest coming here from abroad. “The Irish invasion happens every June because Irish students are able to get working visas and come here looking for summer jobs,” Minos said. “We also get a lot of South Americans from Brazil and Argentina and Aussies (Australians) all year ’round because they’re always traveling. We also get a big influx of Chinese in December.” OB Hostel’s appeal for guests wherever they come from is pretty obvious. “We’re one of those vibrant beach communities in Southern California, and one of the few places in Southern California that really retains that true flavor of the Southern California beach town,” said hostel manager Jack McKeon. “Our location two blocks off the water is perfect for a lot of travelers.” McKeon spoke of two recent happy patrons. “We had a couple of Polish gentlemen come in last week and they were super-excited to go surfing for the first time,” he said. “We can provide that for people.” McKeon also pointed out that OB “has a lot of culture and vibrancy born out of the California counterculture movement,” which makes it more attractive to youthful guests. “Some call it the hippie hangover, but we think of it in more positive terms,” he said. The OB Hostel is strict about not allowing drinking from under-age guests or drug use of any kind. “If you’re caught (with drugs) — you’ll be kicked out,” said Minos. Minos said the OB Hostel’s new owners want to join with the neighborhood, which she said is a win-win both for the business and the community. “We’re just getting our hands around the community,” she said. “We were lucky enough to buy this hostel, and we’re really thrilled to be here.” Minos noted international travelers staying in relatively inexpensive hostel rooms make good guests for a number of reasons. “They’re on vacation, and a lot of them have saved a long time to be able to take these trips,” Minos said. “They save money on the room, so they have it to spend on everything else. They provide money coming into the community. We want to be able to contribute to that, bring in the right kind of clientele that will be spending that money.” For more information, visit www.usahostels.com.

measures more stringent than those of most cities and water districts throughout the state. And on Faulconer's recommendation and with council approval, the city entered into a “drought-watch” status on July 1, 2014, calling for additional voluntary conservation measures in response to the statewide drought. Water usage in San Diego fell 4.4 percent in August and 5.7 percent in September compared with the same months a year ago. However, other factors, including a significant decline in ground water reserves throughout California, a drop in water reservoirs for the San Diego region, a lack of rainfall and diminished prospects for a strong El Niño and a severe heat wave for the San Diego region in August and September, led Faulconer to call for the second-phase status.

Under the new guidelines, the voluntary measures in effect since July will become mandatory. They also call for the additional measures, pending council approval, to go into effect Nov. 1, to wit: • Watering and landscape irrigation using sprinklers will be limited to no more than three days a week on a schedule established and posted by the city. • Watering will be allowed at residences with odd-numbered addresses on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays; watering will be allowed at residences with even-numbered addresses on Saturdays, Mondays and Wednesdays. Apartments, condominiums and businesses will be allowed to water on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. • During the months of June through October, the watering limit is no more than 10 minutes per assigned day; during November through May, the watering limit is no more than 7 minutes per assigned day.

OB OKTOBERFEST 2014

THURSDAY · OCTOBER 9, 2014 THE PENINSULA BEACON

Festival ready to blow your socks off with fall fun BY BART MENDOZA | THE BEACON There are several options on the annual local calendar when it comes to celebrating Oktoberfest, but little compares with the party held each year in Ocean Beach. True, the events might have oompah bands, beer and sausages like other venues, but only Ocean Beach has its event right at the water’s edge. Located at the foot of Newport Avenue and Abbott Street, more than 7,000 people are expected to attend the 10th annual installment of the OB Oktoberfest. The two-day happening on Oct. 10 and 11 will include two stages of entertainment and contests galore for the crowd’s amusement. Now a local tradition, Ocean Beach MainStreet Association executive director Denny Knox is succinct when it comes to the reason for Oktoberfest’s success. “I don’t know of another one that’s right on the beach,” she said. She said she particularly enjoys the contests. “I think they’re hilarious. Everybody’s arms get really shaky [during the stein-holding contest]. It’s pretty funny,” she said. Saturday will feature beachside food and craft vendors, as well as a free allages stage on the grassy area at the foot of Newport Avenue, which will include performances from a traditional oompah Band, Lobster Bob and local music artists. Meanwhile, the beer garden stage will open the festivities on Friday night.

There is a $3 donation and you must be 21 and up to enter the beer garden. On hand Friday night in the 21-and-uponly beer garden will be musical performers Brothers Gow, Electric Waste Band and Piracy Conspiracy. Saturday will feature host Jose Sinatra, plus sets from The Bavarian Beer Garden Band, The Rey Vinole Oktoberfest Orchestra, AJ Afroman, The Earful, Jet West, The Devastators, Todo Mundo and Vokab Kompany. Between the crowds and the setting, it’s a dream gig for most bands. “Playing outside provides a natural feel,” said Chris Warner of Jet West, which performs at 3 p.m. “It also doesn’t hurt to have a cool breeze hit ya when you’re playing a set.” AJ Froman, performing at 11 a.m., agrees. “There is nothing that compares to playing outside with the warm sun, cool breeze and amazing energy from thousands of people having fun outdoors.”

He said his band will adapt its set for Oktoberfest. “We will cater our set to an all-ages crowd to ensure we are family friendly,” Froman said. Meanwhile, Todo Mundo frontman Santiago Orozco is more philosophical about the show. “We love playing outdoor events like this,” he said. “Ocean Beach is a beautiful community with lots of positive energy. An outdoor festival like this brings together the community, as well as great people from all over San Diego, and really amplifies that energy. It’s such a great feeling to share our music with a big crowd that’s having fun outside right next to the ocean.” Activities this year include the Miss Oktoberfest contest over both nights, with Saturday reserved for athletic The annual bratwurst-eating contest is always a fun one for spectators to watch, but particPhoto by Jim Grant competitions like the annual Brat Trot ipants should probably bring plenty of antacid. Run — which is an Ocean Beach Community Foundation fundraiser — as well as a 2K Family Fun Run at 9 a.m. and a traditional 5k Beach Run at 10 a.m. On the more humorous side, there will also be competitions in bratwursteating, balloon inflating, stein-holding and sausage-tossing. The latter should bring out a lot of competition. While most of the contests have a small cash prize to go with the bragging rights, tossing sausage into a tub and following the rules can net a winner $10,000. Also on the list of fun events will be “Find the Schnitzengruben,” a modern twist on a treasure hunt, in which 10 envelopes full of SEE FESTIVAL, Page 10 Competitors try to keep up their stamina during a stein-holding contest.

Saturday will see the addition of shuttles to and from the Gaslamp District at The Local and in Normal Heights to and from the Rabbit Hole. Despite the event’s increasing popularity, don’t expect things to get much bigger. “We like the size that it is,” Knox said. “There’s space and enough bicycle racks and so on. It’s comfortable.”

Welcome to Ocean Beach — a great place to spend an entire day. Whether you are in need of antiques, a surfboard, or a great meal – Ocean Beach has something for everyone. All of the colorful neighborhood shops and restaurants will be open during their regular business hours throughout OB Oktoberfest, so be sure to stop in and see what’s new.

practice,” said Gallegos after the game. Romeo Epperley carried the ball in from five yards out before a failed point-after attempt by the Pointers for a 27-20 lead at halftime. The Dogs’ defense made second-half adjustments, forcing the Falcon quarterback out of the pocket and disrupting the passing game. The hosts caught a break in the third quarter when a high snap sailed over the visiting quarterback’s head in a shotgun formation. The Pointers took the ensuing punt and struck for their final score, Grady again finding Gallegos open over the middle as he eluded tacklers enroute to paydirt. “It’s an unbelievable feeling,” Gallegos said of his first-ever touchdown catch. “You’re doing it for your team, for the fans out there and the community who wants to see us get the win.” The 34-20 lead stood until the Falcons responded with just 1:10 left in the game to provide the final score. “This team has the best vibe and relationships,” Gallegos noted. “Our new staff and players are already welcome like family and we all know we have each other’s backs.” The Falcon game was the first of four consecutive home games for the Pointers, who begin league play on Oct. 10 against Kearny. The Komets are a Div. IV team, mired in an 0-5 season after a 42-6 loss at Lincoln last week. Kickoff is at 3 p.m. Then, on Oct. 17, rented “Friday Night Lights” return for the popular annual homecoming game at Pete Ross Stadium against longtime rival La Jolla in “The Battle of the Shoe.” Action begins at 6:30 p.m. The Div. III Vikings are currently 3-3. Notable is their 55-52 loss against Fallbrook last month when quarterback Collin Rugg passed for a school record 569 yards. The Pointers lead the long-running rivalry 4433-1, according to the PLHS sports website.

Point Loma running back Jaylen Griffin spent the night of Oct. 2 at the home of his teammate and close friend, receiver and defensive back Sergio Gallegos. On Oct. 3, the two players accounted for four of the Pointers’ five touchdowns in a wild 3427 non-league home victory over Scripps Ranch. The Pointers move to 5-1 with the win while the Falcons drop to 2-3. Griffin scored all three of his touchdowns during a bizarre first quarter in which: • The Falcons opened scoring on a 71-yard pass just 63 seconds into the game. • One Pointer fumbled away the ensuing kickoff but another (Julius Agho) intercepted a pass on the next Falcon play. • Griffin scored his first touchdown on a 58-yard run with less than two minutes played. • After a Falcon punt, Griffin scored his second touchdown on a 24-yard scamper with less than four minutes expired. • The Falcons burned the Pointer secondary again on a 65-yard pass with less than five minutes played. • Capping a Pointer drive, Griffin scored for the third time from five yards out with 17 seconds left. After only 12 minutes of play, 35 points were scored, the Pointers leading 21-14. But neither team was finished. On their opening drive of the second quarter, a Falcon receiver again flew behind the Pointer secondary, gathering in a pass for another score. But Pointer Cole Kidd, in his first game back after a concussion earlier in the season, blocked the point-after attempt, leaving his team clinging to a 21-20 lead less than one minute into the second frame. The action then slowed to a more normal pace, the Pointers driving down the field, aided by a 45yard pass completion from Gavin Grady to Gallegos. POINT LOMA 47, SANTANA 33 “We noticed what Scripps Ranch does on The Pointers were fortunate to only fall behind defense and started working on the connection in 6-0 after a first quarter that saw them turn the ball

over to the Sultans three times with two fumbles and an interception. Only a stingy defense kept the Dogs from a 210 deficit after the miscues ended in two Sultan field goals and a failed fake field goal attempt pass fell incomplete. But the Pointers awoke, scoring 20 second-quarter points. The Pointers grabbed a 7-6 lead in the second quarter on a darting 25-yard scoring run by Tshombre Carter, but a Santana touchdown pass put the hosts back on top 13-7. Epperley then broke a 60-yard run and later scored on the Pointers’ next drive to pull within 1413. The final 64 seconds of the first half saw the Sultans score to go up 19-14 and Griffin answering with a run to take a 20-19 lead at intermission. The Dogs then put up 21 third-quarter points to end the frame with a 41-25 lead. Following a Sultan safety, Griffin took the ensuing kickoff and returned it 85 yards for one of the scores. He also scored the final Pointer touchdown. EXTRA POINTS • Dozens of members of the PLHS staff and several community members were honored in a staff appreciation event before the Falcon game. • The game was also selected as Game of the Week of the National Football Foundation’s local Walter J. Zable Chapter. Point Loma’s Griffin was chosen as his team’s most valuable player and will attend a San Diego Chargers game as a guest of the organization. He will also be honored, along with other local prep and college selections at an annual spring banquet. Quarterback Zach Podraza was selected from the Falcons. • The Pointer junior varsity moved to 5-1 with a 25-0 win over the Falcons, while the freshmen are 4-1-1 after a 33-33 tie. • Western League games after Kearny and La Wide receiver Sergio Gallegos (No. 7) celebrates his Jolla include Mission Bay (Oct. 31 at home, 3 p.m.) touchdown pass reception as he leaps into the arms of 6-foot-7-inch Tim O’Brien (No. 80) during the non-league and Madison (Nov. 7, away, 6:30 p.m.). victory over Scripps Ranch on Oct. 3.

PLNU defends home court on Dig Pink Night PLNU ATHLETICS COMMUNICATIONS DEPT.

Azusa Pacific. The San Diego native (Mira Mesa High School) made seven saves, two shy of her career-best mark, as the Point WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL TEAM Loma defense held strong to make a goal STANDS FIRM AT HOME in the 14th minute stand up for the vicPoint Loma Nazarene University’s tory over its longtime rivals. Golden Gymnasium was rocking in the stands and on the court Oct. 2 as the Point Loma volleyball team defeated California Baptist 25-23, 20-25, 25-17 and 25-19 in front of a pink-clad student section as part of the Side-Out Foundation’s Dig Pink campaign. With the victory, PLNU is now a halfmatch up for first place in the Pacific West Standings at 6-0 (9-5 overall). This was also the second straight loss for the Lancers, who fell to 8-6 on the season and two games off the pace in the PacWest standings at 4-2. PLNU’s Heather Leavitt recorded a double-double with a match-high 20 kills and 14 digs, but it was a team effort that led Point Loma to the victory over its longtime conference foe. Five Sea Lions had eight or more kills in the match, including freshman middle blocker Bethany Mandon, who posted a career-best 11 kills with just one error for a .385 hitting percentage. Fellow middle blocker Alyssa Dwyer added nine kills and a .300 hitting percentage, while Briana Vieth and Delaney McCraney chipped in with eight kills apiece. It was Savannah Wedemeyer who was the distributor for the Sea Lions all night. She had 49 assists in the four sets as PLNU posted assists on 56 of 58 kills. Christin Fisher also added 19 digs and Mandon paced the squad with four blocks. “I don’t know if it was emotion or focus tonight, but there was definitely something different about this match, and really this week,” said Point Loma head coach Jonathan Scott. “We prepared better than we had all season and it showed.” The Point Loma volleyball team donned pink jerseys and wore the initials of a loved one affected by cancer on the sleeves of their warmup shirts. The Point Loma Athletic Department also collected donations for the Dig Pink Campaign. For more information, visit www.plnusealions.com. “The Dig Pink campaign is something that has been embraced by the volleyball community at all levels, so here at Point Loma, we are happy to be part of something bigger than ourselves,” said Scott.

Health BRIEFS >> O. B. People’s Food Market Healthy Halloween Carnival

This month Ocean Beach People’s Organic Food Market celebrates with our annual Healthy Halloween Carnival on Friday, October 31. Enjoy organic pumpkin bread and apple cider all day, free healthy treat bags for kids, a clown, magician and more! Nowadays, there is a different kind of market where people become something more than buyers or sellers, and that place is called a cooperative. Co-op member shoppers not only buy goods and services from the cooperative, but they also own the business. They use their combined power to invest their capital, operate their own business, provide themselves and others with goods and services, and share their benefits. Ocean Beach People’s Organic Food Market is a California Cooperative. But why buy your groceries at the Coop? When you make purchases at the Coop, your community benefits from its own economic activity. How? Your money stays in the local economy. Prices are fair, and local, organic farming is supported. Education and outreach projects promote a vision of sustainability within the community. This direction is widely different than the single end point of profit at any grocery store that is not cooperatively owned. Come take part in the cooperative experience at Ocean Beach People’s Organic Food Market, located at 4765 Voltaire Street (619) 224-1387, where “Everyone can shop and Anyone can join.” Check us out on the web at obpeoplesfood.coop or visit us at facebook.com/ oceanbeachpeoples.

Medication Mistakes Can Be Dangerous

Every year 1.5 million people are injured or become seriously ill when a medication mistake happens and 100,000 people a year die from the mistake. It is important for everyone to protect themselves from possible mistakes. Knowing how to avoid mistakes is important for everyone.

Confusing two medications with similar names accounts for up to 25 percent of errors. Sometimes the doctor’s handwriting is misread, the wrong medicine name is put into the computer or the wrong drug is pulled from the pharmacy shelf but it happens. Drugs that could be confused might be Adderall (a stimulant for ADHD) with Inderal (a beta-blocker for high blood pressure), or Paxil (an antidepressant) with Taxol (a cancer drug) or Plavix (an anticlotting medication). Ask your doctor to write on the prescription what it’s for as well as the name and dosage. If the pharmacist sees high blood pressure but the name of the drug is an antidepressant, it should be a red flag for the pharmacist. Sometimes drugs can interfere with each other because of their side effects. One drug can magnify the other or one drug can magnify a side effect of the other. If you take one medication that says a side effect can raise blood pressure and then you take a second medication with the same side effect, the two together could cause your blood pressure to get dangerously high. So ask your pharmacist and doctor about side effects, read the written printouts and review and compare them. The RN Care Manager at Innovative Healthcare Consultants is experienced and knowledgeable about reviewing all medications to insure against drug interactions and errors. Her job is to make sure these errors don’t happen for the client. If you’re concerned about a loved one and the possibility of a medication mistake, call us at 760.731.1334 or view our website at www.innovativehc.com for more.

A public market emerges on the horizon at Liberty Station BY FRANK SABATINI JR. | THE BEACON

What was originally designated for a project called The Shops in the 22,000-square-foot wing of Liberty Station’s Building 1 will now become the site of Liberty Public Market, a culinary bazaar of sorts spearheaded by Coronado native and restaurateur David Spatafore of Blue Bridge Hospitality. Slated to open in June, the venture was inspired by Spatafore’s visits to Redding Terminal Market in Philadelphia and Granville Island Public Market in Vancouver, Canada, as well as others. “When I’m at those places, it’s a visual-smell-taste-touch experience,” he said. “You’re turned on to things that you never knew existed. And I’ve always thought, ‘Why don’t we have anything like this in San Diego?’” Spatafore said he was impressed by the “rawness” of Building 1 at 2816 Historic Decatur Road, which was originally built as the Naval Training Center’s commissary in 1921. His vision for turning the vacant space into a public co-op of artisan food vendors won approval from the property’s management firm, Corky McMillin Companies, despite its intent at the time of filling the gap with commercial retailers. Spatafore assures that Liberty Public Market will deliver something much different than a shopping mall. His partnership with McMillin will bring about $3 million worth of infrastructure revisions to the space, as well as an outdoor patio area,

though implemented without using modern design elements that would alter the historic integrity of the structure. “A lot of what we’re trying to make is already there,” he said. “It has all the bones for a cool market.” He said his goal is to open with 34 vendors of local origins that would include a butcher, fish monger, baker, cheese specialist, juicer, tortilla maker and more. He’s also reserved two separate areas for wine and beer merchants. “The list of potential vendors is huge,” said Spatafore. “I want an eclectic collection of vendors that will drive that sensory overload of a public market. And I want to give them the chance to have a brickand-mortar outlet without having to sign their lives away.” Spatafore has already begun meeting with dozens of candidates as he continues finalizing design plans. Among them is Pete Balistreri, the executive chef at Tender Greens Point Loma who specializes in hand-crafted Italian salumi. “He’s interested in being part of the market,” said Spatafore, adding that he can’t yet reveal the others composing an initial short list “until we have something for them to actually sign onto.” He did divulge, however, that the merchant mix will include Moo Time Creamery, which Spatafore founded 16 years ago in Coronado. The ice cream and frozen yogurt parlor is part of Blue Bridge Hospitality’s portfolio that also includes Leroy’s Kitchen + Lounge, Lil’

Plans are under way for Liberty Public Market in Liberty Station.

Piggy’s Bar-B-Q, Village Pizzeria and Coronado Coffee Company. The market lineup, he adds, might also fold in a couple of food-related merchandisers selling cookbooks and kitchen supplies. In thinking further ahead, Spatafore said he hopes to build a test kitchen within the market that would provide additional cooking space for vendors and serve as a demo platform for local farmers. He also foresees it as a rentable option for chefs who want to conduct popup dinners and other culinary events.

The McKenzie Method for Treating Spinal Pain

The McKenzie Method is more than extension exercises. McKenzie is a comprehensive approach to spine rehabilitation based on mechanical diagnosis and therapy. Most remarkable, but least appreciated, is the McKenzie assessment process. Assessment:Unique to the McKenzie Method is a well-defined algorithm that leads to the simple classification of spinal-related disorders. It is based on a “cause and effect” relationship between pain behavior as well as the pain response to repeated test movements, positions and activities during the assessment process. The end result is the underlying disorder can be quickly identified through objective testing in correlation with subjective information. The McKenzie classification of spinal pain provides a consistent means of classifying patients to determine appropriate treatment. Three mechanical syndromes: • Postural: End-range stress of normal structures • Dysfunction: End-range stress of shortened structures (such as scarring, fibrosis, nerve root adherence) • Derangement: Anatomical disruption or displacement within the motion segment (most commonly the disc) All three mechanical syndromes occur in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar regions of the spine. Each distinct syndrome is addressed with mechanical procedures utilizing movement and positions. Treatment: McKenzie treatment emphasizes education and patient involvement. This promotes rapid restoration of function and independence. It minimizes the number of visits to the clinic because the patient is self-treating when appropriate. If a problem is more complex, self-treatment may not be possible right away. A certified McKenzie clinician will know when to provide additional advanced hands-on techniques until the patient can successfully manage the condition on their own. Ultimately, most patients can successfully treat themselves when provided with the necessary knowledge and tools. An individualized self-treatment program tailored to the lifestyle of the patient puts the patient in control safely and effectively. Prevention:Patients gain experience learning to self-treat the present problem. The management of these skills and behaviors will minimize the risk of recurrence and allow patients to rapidly manage themselves should symptoms occur in the future. I have been evaluating and treating patients as a Certified MDT (Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment) Physical Therapist for over thirteen years and have found it to be an effective modality for decreasing pain, improving function and especially allowing patients to have a program for self treatment and management of pain.

THURSDAY · OCTOBER 9, 2014 THE PENINSULA BEACON

OBMA again set to laud merchants, volunteers, public officials who make a difference in OB BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON The yearly Ocean Beach MainStreet Association (OBMA) Awards Celebration and Annual Meeting will be Thursday, Oct. 23 at the Ocean Beach Masonic Center, 1711 Sunset Cliffs Blvd. The relaxed and fun-filled event, often full of tongue-in-cheek jokes and good-natured pokes at friends in the community, is also a serious affair that honors outstanding merchants, volunteers and movers-and-shakers in Ocean Beach from throughout the year. “It is a fun, two-hour event that is open to our members in good standing,” said Denny Knox, OBMA’s executive director. “Awards are given out based on nominations from all of our standing committees (design, organization, economic restructuring and promotion).” Knox said OBMA’s membership (more than 500) has the opportunity to vote online for their favorite business in each category. She said the general public can also vote by going to the business improvement district’s (BID’s) Facebook event page at Facebook.com/obma-92107. “They need to have a Facebook account and they can comment (write in their choice for Customer Service Business of the Year),” Knox said, adding the evening’s buffet dinner is provided free of charge by 25 local restaurants who donate their favorite dishes. “We often have many elected representatives in attendance,” said Knox.

After working hard for the Ocean Beach community all year, members and award recipients let their hair down for a fun and riotous evening each year during the Ocean Beach MainStreet Association’s yearly Awards Celebration and Annual Meeting held at the Masonic CenCourtesy photo ter on Sunset Cliffs Boulevard.

“There is always a surprise during the event. Last year, everyone got red lips and posed for photos. We have something different for this year.” Knox said this year’s OBMA awards will have something for everyone, including “a little singing, recognizing our local businesses, catching up with friends — and it’s all free.” Five huge baskets, each worth $500 in gift cards and other items are being

raffled off at this year’s event. Raffle tickets are $5, and an arm’s length of tickets can be purchased for $20. “Members can put their prize tickets in any of the jugs in front of the baskets depending on which baskets they want to win,” said Knox. “It’s a great deal.” For more information, visit www.oceanbeachsandiego.com.

Music on the Point, the concert series hosted by All Souls’ Episcopal Church, returns on Sunday, Oct. 19 at 4 p.m. The opening concert will be performed by Gabriel Arregui, organist-choirmaster of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Encinitas. Arregui, an ambassdor for the organ and its literature, will offer works by J.S. Bach, Petr Erben, Girolamo Frescobaldi, Dieterich Buxtehude and Jean Langlais. This concert season celebrates the 30th anniversary of the construction of San Diego’s only historically informed pipe organ. It was created over more than three years in the Fritts-Richards workshop in Tacoma, Wash., and is constructed of hand-crafted woodwork and pipework. The organ case is adorned with hand-carved, gold-leafed wooden sculptures representing the creatures that live in the tidepools of Point Loma. With the exception of the organ blower and the console lighting, the action of the instrument is completely mechanical, using the finest aspects of 17th century organ-building technology. For many, this organ remains one of the city’s best-kept secrets. For afiicionados of fine music, it is a constant delight to see and hear. The public is cordially invited to attend all of the concerts. There is a suggested donation of $5, although no one is turned away. Students are welcome at no charge. A reception follows, where audience members may greet the performer and enjoy All Souls’ hospitality and fellowship. For more information, contact Geoffrey Graham at (619) 223-6394, ext. 13, or email allsouls.music@gmail.com.
