SeaWorld San Diego to phase out orca shows

Will El Niño bring severe weather to SD? BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Though not a certainty, the “smart” money is on the building El Niño in the Pacific Ocean leading to a wetter-than-normal winter this year. It now seems more a question of how much — and how long — the precipitation will last, not whether it will happen. “It’s like it (El Niño) is almost too big to fail,” said San Diego Lifeguard Lt. John Sandmeyer following a recent briefing he and other city officials had from the National Weather Service about the El Niño/La Niña cycle. “The atmosphere is loaded with moisture, and it will come, though it’s uncertain whether the ocean track will go over Central California, Southern California or Mexico,” said Sandmeyer. He described the building El Niño, explained by weather forecasters, as a “significant bank of water 2.23 degrees (much) warmer than usual and hundreds of feet deep out in the South Pacific.” “El Niño,” “The Christ Child” in Spanish, referring to its impact during Christmas in South SEE EL NINO, Page 18

Announcement of changes to SeaWorld's current busi-

ness model was made Nov. 9 during a live webcast of the theme park and entertainment company's annual investor meeting.

DA to not prosecute police shooting in Midway District BY LIAM DILLON VOICE OF SAN DIEGO

Spring tides soak Sunset Cliffs A massive wave crashes near construction workers as they reinforce the cliffs at the foot of Sunset Cliffs Boulevard and Pescadero Avenue on Oct. 30. The so-called ‘spring tides,’ caused when the sun and the moon line up, PHOTO BY MIKE McCARTHY created huge surf that soaked the coastline late last month.

It’s no surprise District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis decided Nov. 9 not to prosecute a San Diego police officer who shot and killed an unarmed mentally ill man in the Midway district in the

spring. Dumanis has been signaling that the case didn’t meet the high bar needed to criminally charge officers in the line of duty. The policeman in question, Neal Browder, has also been back on active duty for months. SEE MIDWAY, Page 6

recent problems he had — and a deadline he missed — to put in a public sidewalk on the corner parcel. “Plum Street, according to neighbors' updates, is in lull, awaiting more interim deadlines with Judge (Rubin), supposedly skeptical he can meet his January final deadline,” said Don Sevrens, a member of the Peninsula Community Planning Board, speaking on his own behalf. “I am too, with the (Plum Street) roof pulled loose from the wall and sagging. He sort of met the deadline on the sidewalk — but sort of did not — because it was substandard, and major sections had to be torn out and replaced.” City spokesman Gerry Braun confirmed that the sidewalk Mendiola was responsible for putting in originally failed a city inspection held Sept. 16. “Mendiola finally completed the public sidewalks and curbs on Plum and Lowell streets that he had illegally removed seven years ago,” said Lohla. “He was past the Court's deadline for completion by about one month because he constructed the sidewalks and curbs three times (and had to demolish his work the first two attempts) before he finally received approval by the City.” Lohla said Rubin ordered Mendiola to “reimburse the City $1,400 for city staff's

time inspecting his work multiple times.” Lohla pointed out that Mendiola's construction lender is J. P. Morgan Chase Bank. “In the event that Chase Bank forecloses on Mendiola, or if Mendiola gives Chase Bank the deed in lieu of foreclosure, our next step is to persuade Chase Bank that it would be in the community's best interest, and in Chase Bank's public relations interest, to immediately demolish the incomplete construction and sell the site rather than ask the City for still more time to complete the construction of this monstrosity in our midst,” Lohla concluded. Jon Linney, another planning board member speaking on his own behalf, said Mendiola “deserves the opportunity to do so (complete the house) without interference from the public. Some fear that he is gaming the judicial system and will not even come close to meeting his deadline. If that happens, he should be punished accordingly and not given further extensions.” Linney pointed out that “perpetual” remodels like Mendiola's “cause economic harm to the law-abiding, taxpaying neighbors who see their own property values diminished.” READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

La Playa Trail Association will present author James Lightner on Tuesday, Nov. 17, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at Point Loma Assembly, 3035 Talbot St. This next lecture in the association's series takes a look at scientific explorations on Point Loma during the Spanish and Mexican periods and the aftermath of the Mexican-American War. “During the Spanish and Mexican periods,” Lightner said, “few inhabitants of the San Diego region had been educated in natural sciences or medicine. Their time was occupied with daily life, ranching and agriculture, light industry and maritime commerce as well as mission work and civil defense.” Several European and American expeditions used the La Playa Trail and left scientific records. Lightner's presentation will review the records of Juan Crespi from 1769, Archibald Menzies from 1793, Paolo Botta from 1827, Thomas Nuttall from 1836, Richard Hinds from 1839, William Emory from 1846 to 1847 and Charles Parry from 1849 to 1851. Lightner is a 1979 graduate of Point Loma High School and author of three books on native plants of San Diego County. Light hors d'oeuvres and wine will be served.

Residents, officials lobbying against FAA flight path proposal BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Now that a public review period for an environmental assessment for the Federal Aviation Administration's proposed SoCal Metroplex project has come and gone, the public and elected officials are lobbying for and against the proposal. The SoCal project is intended to improve the efficiency of airspace in Southern California by optimizing aircraft arrival and departure procedures at more than 20 regional airports, including San Diego’s. The project may involve changes in aircraft flight paths and altitudes in certain areas, but the FAA claims it would not increase the number of aircraft operations within the Southern California airspace. The draft environmental assessment for the SoCal Metroplex project, released in June, has since closed. Many Peninsulans have said they want the FAA to consider retaining the LOWMA waypoint latitude-longitude navigational guide, which for more than 20 years has limited aircraft flying over Point Loma. They argue that deviating from that waypoint will bring more flights, more noise and more pollution over more areas of Point Loma that were previously unaffected. “We released the draft environmental assessment for the proposed Southern California Metroplex project on June 10, and the public comment period ended Oct. 8,” said FAA public affairs manager Ian Gregor. “We held 11 public workshops on the draft EA between June 16 and July 2, including in San Diego. We extended the project's public comment period twice. We do not plan additional workshops.”

A Southwest flight lands at San Diego International Airport.

Gregor said those who contend that proposed flight changes associated with the SoCal Metroplex project are a fait accompli are mistaken. “We have not made any decisions on the project yet,” Gregor said. “We have not changed any flight procedures around San Diego in many years. If we were to decide to proceed, we would implement the new procedures between November 2016 and March 2017.” The office of U.S. Rep. Scott Peters,whose congressional district 52 includes Point Loma, said the congressman has heard from “hundreds of concerned constituents” on the FAA matter. Peters sent a second letter dated Oct. 30 to FAA administrator Michael Huer-

ta restating his opposition to the proposed removal of the LOWMA waypoint for eastbound departures from San Diego International Airport. He also called on the FAA to do a much better and faster job of responding to the “real concerns” of residents within and around the flight path. “Previously, I submitted comments to the EA emphasizing the importance of maintaining waypoint LOWMA, near the tip of Point Loma over which eastbound flights departing from San Diego International Airport (SAN) must pass to the south,” said Peters' letter. “… [P]roposed (flight) changes have the potential for significant negative impacts on communities that have long had a 'good neighbor' relationship with the

FAA and SAN. … In the mid-1990s, Point Lomans, through their elected officials, and the FAA agreed to install 'noise dots' so that controllers would direct all departures to the west of SAN and a dot beyond the tip of Point Loma for eastbound aircraft to go around.” Noting the red dot agreement “is important for several reasons,” Peters said it represents “agreed-upon acceptable standards and practices for flight operations.” “Destroying such a precedent in a unilateral manner sends residents the message that their federal government may not keep its promises,” Peters said. “It is proof that these residents are willing to do their part understanding their proximity to a major international airport requires some reasonable accommodations of them.” Pointing out that the red dot agreement shows the community and the FAA “are capable of working together at a regional level,” Peters added, “Perhaps the red dot agreement, negotiated close to 20 years ago, is in need of an update. Who better to provide input than the same residents who have coexisted with an international airport for decades.”

Point Loman Casey Schnoor, who's launched a petition drive opposing the SoCal Metroplex plan that has garnered more than 3,500 signatures to date, said it's his understanding that responses to the SoCal Metroplex Environmental Assessment questions should be complete before the end of the year. He said the FAA will then move to create a final environmental assessment. Any implementation of the NextGen changes, which were originally scheduled for February of 2016, will now be delayed, Schnoor added. Schnoor said Mayor Kevin Faulconer is “working closely with the FAA, is currently researching the issues and has a second call scheduled with Lynn Ray, Sr., FAA administrator in charge of NextGen in Washington, D.C., in two weeks. “We have met with and are working closely with the Airport Authority reviewing flight track data, crafting lists of concerns and recommendations to become the basis for a new red dot noise agreement with FAA-Air Traffic,” Schnoor said, adding Coronado Mayor Casey Tanaka has also written the FAA in opposition to proposed NextGen flight path changes.

How to save thousands when selling your home When you decide to sell your home, setting your asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Depending on how a buyer is made aware of your home, price is often the first thing he or she sees, and many homes are discarded by prospective buyers as not being in the appropriate price range.

Midway CONTINUED FROM Page 1

Dumanis’ rationale, described in a 15page letter to Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman, cites a host of newly revealed evidence from the incident, which resulted in the death of 42-year-old Fridoon Rawshan Nehad. Browder said Nehad was threatening him with a knife that later turned out to be a metallic pen. Dumanis said the evidence clearly supports the officer’s perspective. But Dumanis’ decision also doesn’t resolve a number of questions, especially about conflicting accounts of key details of a still-secret surveillance camera footage of the incident. (Voice of San Diego, along with multiple other local news outlets, are fighting in court to make that footage public. A federal court judge has yet to rule on the request.) Let’s review what we now know about the case from Dumanis’ letter – and what we still don’t.

The Evidence Last month, I wrote how Dumanis’ decision was going to be based on longstanding U.S. Supreme Court precedent:

Law enforcement officers can use deadly force if they believe there’s an imminent threat of deadly force against them or someone else. Crucially, the standard is taken from what a so-called “reasonable officer” would believe at the time, not with the benefit of hindsight. In this case, for instance, it matters less that Nehad didn’t end up having a knife and more whether a reasonable officer in the same position as Browder would think Nehad had one. Dumanis says that it was absolutely reasonable for Browder to believe Nehad was dangerous. Browder was called to the scene after a report that someone was threatening employees and patrons of an adult bookstore with a knife. Dumanis cites testimony from witnesses who saw the circumstances immediately before and during the shooting. “Three witnesses saw Nehad had an item in his hand,” Dumanis wrote. “Two of them believed it was a knife; one was not sure what it was. Browder also believed Nehad was armed with a knife. Two of the witnesses heard Browder demand that Nehad drop the knife. Another witness believed that Browder told Nehad to stop.” Dumanis also quotes Browder from

his interview with police investigators: “I was just one piece of evidence he used to swear I thought he was going to stab support the view that Browder shouldn’t be prosecuted. me,” Browder said. “It basically corroborated what the The Video officer had to say and what the other This case is so controversial in part witnesses had to say,” Martin said. because of testimony from Wesley Doyle, an employee of the business that cap- The Discrepancies Even with all this newly released evitured the incident on its surveillance camera. Doyle watched the footage at dence, it doesn’t put to rest a number of least 20 times and said the shooting was discrepancies in various accounts of unprovoked. He said the video would be what happened. Two of the biggest are the distance between Browder and “shocking” to anyone who saw it. In her letter, however, Dumanis both Nehad when the shooting occurred and downplayed the video’s value and said it how quickly Nehad was moving toward the officer. supports Browder’s case. For years, officers have been taught The video, she said, was mounted more than 20 feet in the air and was that they were in danger if they were more than 70 feet from where Browder within 21 feet of someone with a knife, was standing during the incident. She though experts in the field now are sugsaid it was impossible for it to capture gesting a different approach to training. Browder himself cited the so-called the perspectives of the officer and “21 foot rule” in his interview with Nehad. But Dumanis said the video support- police, according to Dumanis’ letter: ed Browder in that it showed Nehad “When I first came on we would always advancing toward him. Dumanis hired use the 21 foot rule,” Browder said. “If Jeffrey Martin, an attorney and ex-San they’re within 21 feet they can be on top Jose police officer who serves as an of you and stabbing you before you react expert witness in police use-of-force to that.” Dumanis says the distance between cases, to review the incident. In an interview, Martin said the video Nehad and Browder was approximately

17 feet. This is just the latest estimate in the case. The city, in a legal filing from a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Nehad’s family, said the distance between them was 10 to 15 feet. Doyle said it was approximately 15 feet. In a court filing, the attorney for Nehad’s family put the distance at about 25 feet. Martin, Dumanis’ expert, said that Nehad was well within the distance to be considered dangerous. “Mr. Nehad, at that point when [Browder] fired, was a matter of steps away from him,” Martin said. Similarly, Doyle said the video shows that Nehad was slowing and might have come to a complete stop before Broward shot him. Dumanis said the video shows that Nehad might have slowed but was definitely moving toward the officer. “When the video is carefully reviewed, it shows when Nehad was shot he was still in mid-stride, lifting his left foot off the ground,” Dumanis wrote.

What’s Next Some of these disputes could be ironed out if Dumanis were to make public the video and other evidence from the case. At a press conference, she said she won’t release the video and the judge shouldn’t either. But with Dumanis’ decision, a major argument against releasing the video – that it would prejudice jurors in a potential criminal trial against Browder – now is gone.

Point Loma Children's Dentistry offers plenty of experience and fun for kids BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Toothfairy, move over for the Toothtapus. Not a fantasy, the Toothtapus is the business logo of Point Loma Children's Dentistry. It reflects the fact that Nora Tleel, DDS, MSD, the owner of the dental practice at 2445 Truxtun Road, Suite No. 106 in Liberty Station, is a scuba diver too. “I wanted something to connect my diving with what I do,” said Tleel, a native of Jordan who moved back to that Middle Eastern nation for a time after getting her education in the States before

returning. “We started working with the tooth, coming up with different logos before deciding on an octopus, a tooth with two roots and six other tentacles (some holding dental instruments),” Tleel said. It was her youthful clients who actually gave Tleel's logo its name. “Kids just started asking questions,” she said. “One said the octopus was wrong, it only had six arms (not counting tooth roots). Another called it a Toothtapus.” A marine theme permeates Tleel's office, from artist-drawn murals of SEE DENTAL, Page 16

Meet the Olive Tree Market’s new neighbor: Ulivo Restaurant! (ooleevo) The neighborhood restaurant, located right next door to the market, has become a favorite meeting place, satisfying locals and visiting customers with its award winning Italian food. Olive Tree Marketplace owner Chris Stavros and his wife Adriana Alcaraz purchased Espresso Ristorante a year ago when the former owner decided to sell and retire. In the past year, they’ve given the location a complete face-lift, hired a new chef, and completely changed the menu and beer/wine list. However, they did not change the name and that’s caused a lot of confusion. “The restaurant was called Espresso for 40 years,” said Stavros. “Just a few weeks ago a couple walked in expecting a coffee shop. It’s time to retire the old name and move forward with a new name that connects all of our businesses in a meaningful way. We have the marketplace and delicatessen and the Olive Tree tasting room, now it’s time to extend the name to the restaurant.” Ulivo, which means Olive Tree in Italian, is a straightforward concept: Simple, fresh ingredients prepared to order, to create authentic regional and seasonal specialties with a variety of flavors. There’s traditional pizza and pasta, but also healthy alternatives like crisp salads, house made soups, and fresh seafood. The Olive Tree Marketplace has been a fixture in Ocean Beach for 27 years. The Stavros family has

been in business in Ocean Beach since the 40’s when Chris’ father, Mr. Cristos Stavros first owned and operated what was the “Corner Malt Shop” on Newport Avenue. Ulivo, located at 1776 Sunset Cliffs Blvd., is open for dinner from 4pm to 9:30pm and closed on Tuesdays. Take-out food is available for pick –up only. Plans for weekday lunch are in the works.

Pointers water polo goes unbeaten in league play BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON The boys water polo team at Point Loma High School has grabbed the No. 1 seed in Div. III CIF playoffs. The team floated to the top of City Central League standings with a perfect 10-0 record and a remarkable 22-4 overall mark. The top seed earns the Pointers a first-round bye in the tournament that began Nov. 10. The Pointer polo boys, under head coach Ken Toma, will be awaiting the winner of the Nov. 17 match between No. 8 Olympian (10-10 overall) and No.

9 Mission Bay (8-14). The water Dogs will begin CIF play in a quarterfinal match at 4 p.m. this afternoon. All CIF matches are played at La Jolla High's Coggan Pool complex. The winner advances to the semifinals next Monday, Nov. 16, to be played at 5:45 and 7:30 p.m. at the same location. The finals are scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 21, at 12:15 p.m., and the Pointers have plans to reach and win their division final. The team's performance this season is the result of continuing improvement in the last three years. The Pointers have

been in the lowest CIF group (Div. III) based on their previous records, which included 2013 (7-23 overall, 0-8 in league) and 2014 (15-15, 5-3) before this breakout season. Team captain Brendan McMahon, a junior, leads the team. Top scorers include junior Adam Watson (83 goals + 44 assists = 127 points), followed closely by freshman Kai Ball (56 + 71 = 127) and McMahon (77 + 33 = 110). The team is averaging 13.8 goals per game and yielding just 7.8 goals. Junior goaltender Zac James-Fortune has made 228 saves.

Point Loma girls volleyball playoff run begins BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON The Lady Pointers volleyball team reached the summit last season, winning the CIF Div. I championship, and despite losing several key players is back this season as the No. 4 seed in the tournament, which began Nov. 11. Head coach Davis Ransom and his team, which finished 18-15 (3-7 in Western League), hosted No. 13 seed La Jolla Country Day (18-15, 4-6 in Coastal League) in the first round at PLHS's Lee Trepanier Gym. The winner advances to play the win-

ner of the match between No. 5 Eastlake (20-12, 8-0 in Metro Mesa League) and No. 12 Poway (10-20, 2-8 in Palomar League) in the quarterfinals. If the Pointers won their match last night, they will host the match, set for Saturday, Nov. 14 at 5 p.m. The semifinals are set for Wednesday, Nov. 18 at 7 p.m., also in the gym of the highest seeded team, while the finals will be played Saturday, Nov. 21 at 4 p.m. in the Cathedral Catholic gym. Top seeds this year in Div. I include No. 1 La Costa Canyon (20-10, 10-0 in Avocado West League) followed by No. 2

Bishop's (21-11, 8-0 in Coastal League) and No. 3 Ramona (25-10, 9-1 in the Valley League). The Pointers defeated Poway, Eastlake and La Jolla Country Day during the current regular season. Last year's Lady Pointer team finished 24-9 overall and 8-4 in Western League but came together to play their best volleyball during CIF play, eliminating La Costa Canyon (a winner of seven consecutive titles) in a memorable finals match and 2013 champion Ranch Buena Vista in the semifinals, both by 3-0 scores.

LIFESTYLE Peninsula artists work on display at Central Library's Rainmaker exhibit 14

THURSDAY · NOVEMBER 12, 2015

THE PENINSULA BEACON

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Seemingly apropos with an El Niño likely on the way, the downtown central San Diego Library is featuring Rainmaker, a new exhibit presenting the work of 12 artists offering perspectives on drought and climate change. Peninsula artists Lisa Hutton, Scott Polach and Eva Struble are among the dozen whose work is on display now until Nov. 29 at the Central Library, at 330 Park Blvd. In the exhibit, freelance curator Susan Myrland and Richard Crawford, supervisor of special collections at the San Diego Public Library, tell the story of a real-life San Diego historical rainmaker, Charles Hatfield. The city was in a drought around the time of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition in Balboa Park. City leaders were so desperate they voted to pay socalled rainmaker Charles Hatfield to release his “secret formula” into the atmosphere. Whether as a result —or by coincidence — San Diego was deluged, with it raining more than 30 inches in less than two months. Myrland used “Hatfield’s Flood” as the starting point for the library show which includes water-related works by a dozen

PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Cal State San Marcos Her work exhibited in Rainmaker is from a series of drawings on the topic of climate change and obviousness. The resulting drawings, she noted, are unlikely composites of severe weather in combination with scenic computer wallpapers. “As severe climate events become more common, mass media permit the audience to witness severe weather on a daily basis — however, such observation is abstract and impersonal,” said Hutton. “At the same time, the computer wallpapers provide an impersonal fantasy landscape for the indoor worker. By combining the two forms, I intend to draw attention to the disconnection between our comfortable existence and a warming climate.”

Myrland said she was invited by Kara West, library arts and culture exhibitions manager, to submit a proposal for the Central Library Art Gallery. She noted the library periodically reaches out to guest curators as a way to connect with different forms of creativity in the community. “The goal is to create a space where curators can share ideas, in addition to artists showing their work,” said Myrland, noting she “happened to see” a display about Hatfield in the library’s Special Collections section and “realized we were coming up on the centennial of the (Hatfield) flood. “So I proposed to use that event — one of the worst disasters in San Diego's history — to examine water, drought and cli-

mate change through 12 contemporary artists.” Myrland said Hutton was one of the first two she approached about exhibiting their work in Rainmaker. “Lisa's drawings are from a series she calls ‘climate change meets obliviousness,’ ”said Myrland. “I picked two where animals are threatened by massive storms, unable to comprehend what humans are doing to the planet.” The curator said she chose Struble's painting, "Navy Yard," for the exhibit “because it shows the Brooklyn Navy Yard at a time when it was abandoned and its future was uncertain” READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

more about the natural world and the plight of animals in the wild, along with family entertainment and attractions.” During the presentation, Manby shared with investors and analysts a plan to build on the company's strong business fundamentals. The new SeaWorld plan includes a new approach to in-park activities as well as greater connection to the company's television programming that highlights SeaWorld Entertainment's veterinary care and animal-rescue operations. Other elements of the plan include a more simplified approach to value-based pricing, investment in new attractions and an ongoing focus on cost control as part of a larger commitment to financial discipline. "We hope that experiencing animals in our parks moves our guests to a deeper understanding of the plight of all animals – and an increasingly threatened natural environment – and inspires those guests to help conserve the world we share," Manby said. The unanticipated SeaWorld announcement followed in the wake of months of reports of declining revenues at its theme parks, including San Diego's. It also followed in the wake of a Nov. 6 announcement by Rep. Adam Schiff (D-28) of the Burbank legislator's intent to introduce a bill named the Orca Responsibility and Care Advancement (ORCA) Act. The bill would phase out the captivity of orcas so that their display ends with this generation. Schiff's legislation, if passed, would prohibit the breeding, taking (wild capture) and the import/export of orcas for public display. “The evidence is very strong that the psychological and physical harm done to these magnificent animals far outweighs any benefits reaped from their display,” said Schiff. “We cannot be responsible stewards of our natural environment and propagate messages about the importance of animal welfare when our behaviors do not reflect our principles. The ORCA Act ensures that this will be the last generation of orcas who live in captivity, and we will appreciate these incredible creatures

where they belong – in the wild.” This most recent turn of events in the ongoing orca captivity controversy was hailed by San Diego Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez (D-80) on her website as a major breakthrough. But she added the fight for marine mammal rights continues. “Today’s acknowledgement by SeaWorld does not end our push to halt inhumane orca captivity and breeding practices, but it’s a step in the right direction,” said Gonzalez. “More importantly, SeaWorld’s announcement contradicts their earlier statements that the company could not be profitable unless orcas were forced to participate in these circus-like shows. In fact, the public pressure on SeaWorld to stop the Shamu shows became the exact reason why the company’s profitability was at risk. “Today’s news shows that the public can hold big corporations accountable when they merely defend offensive business practices as being vital to their bottom line. Clearly, SeaWorld can move away from being a giant circus that harms animal life and still have a viable business model,” she said. On Nov. 9, Manby also announced several new business initiatives, including partnerships between SeaWorld with Panasonic and Evans Hotel Group. He said a key objective of the Panasonic partnership is to use technology to better connect park guests with animals and the company's 23,000 employees, now known as ambassadors, with the larger goal of inspiring a shift in behavior. SeaWorld also announced it has signed a letter of intent with Evans Hotels Group to explore development of a resort hotel on SeaWorld's leased land in San Diego. Evans owns and operates well-known resorts and attractions in San Diego County including The Lodge at Torrey Pines, Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa, the Bahia Resort Hotel and the Bahia Belle and William D. Evans sternwheelers in Mission Beach. The Evans partnership is part of SeaWorld Entertainment's strategy to look at opportunities and partners to develop resort properties in or near some of its parks.

divers underwater on the walls, to a rocks-and-water motif “washing over” the floors. “I just thought I'd bring the water here — and that's what I'm doing,” said Tleel, adding, “All I do is kids (dentistry). I've been doing it for 20 years.” It's all part of the fun at PLCD, which has been in business at the former Naval Training Center since January. “I love it; it's a very unique location near lots of military families and schools,” said Tleel. “It's nice to see the kids walking around (lunchtime).” Tleel said the biggest difference between treating adults and children, ages 1 to 18, is “behavior management.” “Kids are difficult because they're always apprehensive of the treatment,” she said, adding, “We try to make it as fun an environment as possible because it might take us two or three visits before we can actually have a kid open their mouth.” Tleel said it takes a lot of TLC to walk kids through dental procedures. “We show them every instrument, let them feel it, explain what we're going to do with it,” she said, noting a procedure that might take as long as 1½ hours with a child might only take half an hour with an adult. A practicing children's dental specialist, Tleel is board certified and is an examiner for the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. She is also actively involved with both the San Diego and California Dental Societies.

Tleel had an interesting story to tell about how she got involved with scuba diving. She returned to Jordan near the Red Sea, which she described as “the most magnificent place to dive,” to practice for a while after graduating from school. A friend of hers, a scuba instructor, asked her what she did on her leisure time to reduce stress, then introduced her to the sport. “I liked it and got hooked,” Tleel said, adding she's “an assistant (scuba) instructor right now.” Discussing dentistry, Tleel said the science has come a long way. She expects more improvements in the future. “They're working on immunizations against decay to prevent or minimize people from having cavities,” she said, adding medical insurance, including dental, is presently in the throes of change. Tleel counseled families to double check their insurance coverages with their dental practitioners and their employers to ensure their children have proper pediatric dental coverage, a new requirement under Obamacare. Currently, PLCD, which Tleel owns and operates along with an associate, is open three days a week. “Next year we're going to open four days a week as we grow our patient population,” she said.

OB’s talented Skyler Lutes to release new album BY BART MENDOZA | THE BEACON Ocean Beach’s friendly atmosphere and waterfront location have drawn many wonderful artists from all over the world, but it also is home to performers born and raised right here, such as producer and musician Skyler Lutes. The former Point Loma High School student is currently in the studio polishing up a new album, due this January. Appearing next at the Prospect Bar & Grill in La Jolla on Saturday, Nov. 14 at 4:30 p.m., Lutes is perhaps best known live for his acoustic work. However, his recordings are radio-friendly, full-band affairs, mixing up folk-tinged pop with reggae licks and a decidedly indie rock sensibility, best heard in tracks such as “Shoot Me Down.” He has been performing over a decade. “I started my first band in seventh grade,” he said. “I used to listen to surfer, skater, rock and ska bands when I was a kid, bands like Green Day, BuckO-Nine, Blink 182, and Rage Against the Machine.” Lutes is a multi-instrumentalist, who plays drums, bass, keys and guitar, “but I really enjoy singing the most,” he said, “as it has the most emotion involved,” In addition to his solo career, he’s also been involved in several notable bands over the years, including Hawaiian group Makua Rothman Band, Riverside-based indie rockers Everything Said, Aquile, from TV’s “The Voice,” and multiple San Diego Music Awards nominees the Defamation League. Beyond musical groups, Lutes also cites the Ocean Beach community itself as an influence on his songs. “I love OB,” he remarked; “growing up there has shaped my music in so many ways. The scene in OB is rad. Everyone is like a tight family, and it has so many memories for me. As kids, my friends and I would surf all day then play music into night. I feel surfing and living in OB is a huge part of why my music sounds the way it does.” He also likes that the community is

so arts oriented. “So many talented artists call OB home,” he said. “I feel so blessed to have grown up in the scene. One of my passions is going to open mics and finding new, talented songwriters to bring into my studio and record. I think the OB scene lets artists grow organically and has a wide variety of unheard talent.” Lutes is happy to have such a rich atmosphere in which to create his tunes. “My songwriting is inspired by reallife situations I find myself in,” he said. “I love to make songs that have truthful, close-to-my-heart lyrics linked with a catchy guitar riff.” Lutes also includes fun pop covers in his set to keep the energy in the room high. “I've found that a good mix of cover songs can make my originals shine,” he commented. He points out that as much fun as it all can be, there is hard work involved and that not everything always goes according to plan.

“There are so many strange things that have happened to me while performing on stage over the years,” he laughed – “getting elbowed in the face by someone while rocking out at Gallaghers, playing shows in the rain with sketchy tarps above us to keep us dry, which never worked. On the other hand, there’s playing in the middle of nowhere to a bunch of punk kids. Totally not our scene, but they loved us! Some of the stories are awesome, and some are just weird, but remembering them makes me feel so blessed.” Lutes has a tour of the western U.S. set for December, ahead of the new album. Even with a decade of roadwork behind him, touring remains his favorite part of being a musician. “(I love) touring, meeting new people and seeing new places,” he mused. “There is nothing like getting paid to travel and play music.” For more on Lutes, see skylerlutesmusic.com.

San Diego Coastkeeper’s Seaside Soiree raises nearly $80,000 San Diego Coastkeeper’s 18th annual Seaside Soiree, held Oct. 28, raised almost $80,000 for swimmable, fishable and drinkable water in San Diego County, including $8,200 toward a campaign it launched at the event to raise $20,000 by the year's end to celebrate its 20 years of water protection in the county. Headlined by Waterkeeper Alliance president and founder Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the event provided an introduction to the organization’s plan for the next three years, which includes: • tripling its volunteer water quality monitoring force; • bringing water education to 10,000 students; • ensuring the region lowers household water use by 25 percent; and • reducing water pollution and holding polluters accountable to the law. “These funds will support our aggressive plan to combat the chronic pollution threatening our quality of life in San Diego,” says interim executive director Travis Pritchard. Other programs that will benefit from the funds include a volunteer-scientistpowered water quality monitoring program, a law and policy clinic, twicemonthly beach clean-ups and countywide environmental science education aligned with Common Core

standards. These goals, anticipated through 2018, will add to the list of accomplishments that San Diego Coastkeeper has achieved in its first 20 years. Its advocacy has resulted in a 90 percent reduction in sewage spills, a 77 percent reduction in beach advisories, a $12 million investment in sewage infrastructure and the establishment of marine-protected areas in San Diego’s

coastal waters. It negotiated a $100 million clean-up to heal San Diego Bay from a century of pollution and has partnered with San Diego Unified School District and San Diego Union School District to bring water-centric science to students. The soiree was designed to highlight San Diego Coastkeeper’s principles of conservation and sustainability for San Diego’s aquatic playgrounds.

El Nino

County of San Diego offering free sandbags

America, is the “warm” phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). It is associated with a band of warm ocean water that develops in the central and east-central equatorial Pacific. El Niño is accompanied by high air pressure in the western Pacific and low air pressure in the eastern Pacific. The “cool” phase of ENSO is called La Niña, translating as “The Girl.” The ENSO cycle, both El Niño and La Niña, cause global changes of both temperatures and rainfall. Because El Niño's warm pool feeds thunderstorms above, it creates increased rainfall across the eastcentral and eastern Pacific Ocean. This anomaly happens at irregular intervals of two to seven years lasting nine months to two years, with the average period lasting five years. On the West Coast of the United States, El Niños typically cause significantly wetter winters. David Pierce, climate researcher at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, verified that an El Niño is in fact highly likely this winter. And, Pierce noted, this current El Niño could be enhanced by a concurrent ocean anomaly known as “The Blob.” “The Blob is a patch of unusually warm water off the Gulf Coast of Alaska,” Pierce said, adding, “The Blob has moved down and has been hanging out over the West Coast, including California, for more than a year. “It’s hard to tell how much effect El Niño and The Blob will have,” said Pierce, pointing out that “every indication is both will continue through this winter.” Pierce offered a gambling analogy to describe the likely impact of an El

OK, so not only are weather forecasters predicting a chance of showers next week; San Diego is also heading into its much-anticipated El Niño season — which could mean a lot more rainfall than the area has seen for a long time. That means this could be a great time to pick up some free sandbags to help residents prepare. As it has for several years, the County of San Diego is offering free sand and bags to residents in unincorporated communities — but now at more places than ever before. The County has added six new fire stations to its list, meaning residents can get sand and bags at 15 locations. More locations are scheduled to be added in the coming weeks. Just bring a shovel, and you’ll be good to go. Because the entire state has been dealing with a historic drought, the increased rains that El Niño is expected to bring could also mean increased risks of flooding and soil erosion — especial-

ly in places that are not covered by lawns, trees, shrubs and plants. Water runoff, mud and debris swept downstream by rains can damage homes, clog storm drains and culverts and flood and damage roadways. If people have slopes on their properties, they can use mulch or terrace the slopes and plant ground covers and shrubs to keep them from eroding. As potential El Niño rains approach, the County has put together numerous recommendations for how people can prepare, including looking around their properties to see if they are in flood-prone areas or near hillsides with little or dead vegetation, which could allow erosion, and checking the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s resources at ReadySanDiego.org. People can also check the “How to Be El Niño Ready” story on the County News Center. Locations to get free sand and bags: • Alpine Fire Protection District, Station 17, 1364 Tavern Road (bags only);

• Bonita/Sunnyside Fire Department, 4900 Bonita Road; • Boulevard Fire and Rescue, 40080 Ribbonwood Road; • De Luz: Cal Fire Station 16, 39431 DeLuz Road; • De Luz: De Luz Volunteer Fire Department Station 18, 39524 Daily Road; • Dulzura: Cal Fire Station 30, 17304 Highway 94; • El Cajon: San Miguel Fire Department Station 28, 1811 Sunset Blvd.; • Fallbrook: North County Fire Protection District, Station 4, 4375 Pala Mesa Drive; • Julian: Cal Fire Station 50, 1587 Highway 78; • Palomar Mountain: Palomar Mountain Fire Department Station 79, 21610 Crestline Road; • Pauma Valley-Rincon: Cal Fire Station 70, 16971 Highway 76; • Ramona: Cal Fire Station 81, 24462 San Vicente Road.

Niño/The Blob on California’s winter climate. “It’s like having dice that are loaded,” he said. “You don’t know what (precipitation) number is going to come up until you roll the dice. But the odds are we’re more likely to have a wet winter, though it’s not actually guaranteed.” Pierce said other factors, like tides, can have a huge impact when coupled with El Niños in the amount of disruption such an event can cause. “In the 1982-83 El Niño,” he said, “a lot of the storms happened during high tides, which caused a lot of coastal damage. There was less coastal damage dur-

ing the 1997-98 El Niño because storms weren’t associated with high tides.” Pierce described El Niños/La Niñas as “a very natural phenomenon known from paleoclimatological records to have been going on for thousands of years.” He added El Niños/La Niñas have been happening intermittently for the past century with varying results. “In 1997-98, California got 180 percent of normal precipitation,” Pierce said, pointing out that that’s extreme and noting El Niños typically average about 30 percent higher precipitation than usual. “You can’t really make a prediction for how much it will depart

from normal,” he said. Noting that El Niños “cause more moisture to go up into the atmosphere in the form of clouds and precipitation,” Sandmeyer pointed out this temperature-moisture oscillation serves as an “engine” driving weather. “It’s the unequal warmth of the Earth’s surface that causes weather,” the lifeguard said, adding that El Niños create a “bigger engine” that translates into greater-than-normal rainfall. Above-average rainfall is going to be more impactive throughout San Diego County, including along the coast. Nearly 54,600 San Diego County residents,

about 1.75 percent of the total, live in 100-year flood zones, mostly known flood plains that could be subject to flooding during El Niño-fueled rainstorms over the next several months, according to a report released by the National University System Institute for Policy Research. Sandmeyer, team leader for the San Diego River Rescue Team, which is charged with safeguarding people along waterways during heavy rains and flooding, said El Niño’s impact along the coast could be pronounced. “It would create pollution and add to the erosion of the beach in some areas,” he said, “like Dog Beach and Ocean Beach and along river mouths.” He added that first responders are gearing up for the possibility of an especially wet winter. “The River Rescue Team responds to anybody trapped in or around moving water,” Sandmeyer said. “Preparations are being made throughout the city and county,” he added, “coordinating between lifeguards, fire and police departments and the city’s Traffic Division. We’re planning for flooding. So there’s a lot of discussion going on. It’s a big deal.” Sandmeyer said it’s not the amount but the duration of rain that falls during an El Niño event that could prove to be the most problematic. “The biggest threat we’ll see in San Diego is if we get three or four days of rain with significant downpours,” said Sandmeyer. “Then we’re going to see areas, including roads, flooded because they won’t have time to drain. We’re gearing up for evacuations and closures of blocked areas and (residential) complexes. It’s a wide swath of the county that’s under the hazard level when there are significant rainstorms.”

Google Fiber interested in SD Mayor Kevin Faulconer recently announced that Google Fiber will begin working with the City of San Diego to explore the possibility of building a brand new high-speed broadband network in the city. “Information is power, and the more we connect San Diego to superfast Internet, the stronger our neighborhoods and economy will be,” said Faulconer. “We don’t just want modern infrastructure – we also want it smarter, faster and more accessible to San Diego families and businesses. This is part of an ongoing effort to lay the foundation for our local economy and community to compete and thrive in the 21st century. It’s how we make sure San Diego continues to lead in the areas of science, technology and innovation.” Faulconer made increasing San Diegans’ access to high-speed Internet a priority at his 2015 State of the City address.
