According to Fallbrook Union High School athletic director Patrick Walker, no concrete decisions have been made as to when summer athletic training will resume in advance of the CIF Fall Season. Given the fluid nature of county and state mandates being issued because of the coronavirus pandemic, you could say that school officials are dealing with a playing field with constantly moving goalposts. “We are looking at both the CIF guidelines, recommendations from the State Sports Medicine Advisory Committee, and our North C...
SCHUYLER DIXON AP Sports Writer Rick Carlisle isn't sure what to expect from players during the national anthem when the NBA season resumes in empty arenas in Florida. The Dallas Mavericks coach does know how he will react if players kneel or otherwise violate a longtime league policy that requires them to stand during the playing of "The Star-Spangled Banner." "We support our players 100% in terms of their ability to express themselves individually or as a group if they wish,...
MICHAEL R. BLOOD Associated Press LOS ANGELES (AP) - Homayoun Dariyani was training servers and cooks for his soon-to-open gourmet hamburger grill in March when California abruptly shut down dine-in restaurants to slow the spread of the coronavirus. After a three-month delay, Dariyani held the grand opening for Slater's 50/50 on June 18 after the state allowed restaurants to operate with limited capacity. It would be a brief reprieve. Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday shuttered...
JOHN ANTCZAK and JOCELYN GECKER Associated Press LOS ANGELES (AP) - California headed into the Fourth of July weekend Friday under classic sunny summer skies and new health orders that temporarily put many popular beaches off-limits and canceled fireworks shows in an effort to prevent runaway coronavirus infections. A few surfers were in the water off Los Angeles' famed Venice Beach and a few dozen people strolled the boardwalk or shoreline, but the normal Independence Day thr...
JON GAMBRELL Associated Press DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — An online video and messages purportedly claiming responsibility for a fire that analysts say damaged a centrifuge assembly plant at Iran's underground Natanz nuclear site deepened the mystery Friday around the incident — even as Tehran insisted it knew the cause but would not make it public due to "security reasons." The multiple, different claims by a self-described group called the "Cheetahs of the Homeland" included language used by several exiled Ira...
STEPHEN WHYNO AP Sports Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - The Washington Redskins began a "thorough review" of their name Friday, a significant step toward moving on from what experts and advocates call a "dictionary-defined racial slur." Even though owner Dan Snyder had shown no willingness to change the name since buying the team in 1999, the recent national conversation on race has renewed opposition to the name and prompted sponsors to speak up. With support from the NFL, it may...
JAY REEVES Associated Press SELMA, Ala. (AP) - Thousands gathered in this river city in 1940 to dedicate a new bridge in honor of white supremacist Edmund Pettus, a Confederate general and reputed Ku Klux Klan leader. Just 25 years later, the bridge became a global landmark when civil rights marchers were beaten at its base. Today, with thousands protesting nationwide against racial injustice, a years-old push is gaining steam to rename the Edmund Pettus Bridge in honor of...
JOHN SEEWER Associated Press The U.S. headed into the Fourth of July weekend with many parades and fireworks displays canceled, beaches and bars closed, and health authorities warning that this will be a crucial test of Americans' self-control that could determine the trajectory of the surging coronavirus outbreak. With confirmed cases climbing in 40 states, governors and local officials have ordered the wearing of masks in public, and families were urged to celebrate their independence at home. Even then, they were told to...
STEPHEN GROVES and DARLENE SUPERVILLE Associated Press SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — President Donald Trump planned a fiery Mount Rushmore speech Friday night including denunciations of protesters he says are trying to "tear down" the nation's history, coupling condemnation of those who pull down statues with the more traditional July Fourth praise of America's past and values. Trump, who has spoken forcefully against protesters who have tried to topple Confederate monuments and statues honoring those who have benefited from s...

PETR SVAB The Epoch Times Undercover videos indicate that some Facebook content moderators actively focus on posts that are supportive of President Donald Trump, revealing political bias in the company’s policing efforts. In addition, one former moderator, Zach McElroy, indicated that at least one Facebook algorithm seemed designed to flag predominantly right-leaning content. McElroy, who spoke to investigative journalism nonprofit Project Veritas, said he’d be willing to testify under oath about what he saw. Material ide...
Don Thompson and Brian Melley The Associated Press Gay Hardwick stood arm-in-arm with her husband to face a criminal dubbed the Golden State Killer and couldn't recognize the elderly man hunched in a wheelchair as the sadistic rapist who had terrorized them 42 years earlier. In a hushed and raspy voice, Joseph James DeAngelo Jr. – a serial rapist before he became a serial killer – acknowledged in two words, "I admit," that he had attacked the couple in 1978 as he pleaded gui...

The San Diego County Board of Supervisors approved an adjustment to the Community Facilities District assessment for Pardee Homes’ Meadowood development. The supervisors’ 5-0 vote, Wednesday, June 24, approved the assessment and also certified the results of the election to approve the assessment. Because the Meadowood property is uninhabited and Pardee Homes is the sole property owner, the sole vote was in favor of the new rates. Pardee Homes requested the change due to modification of the boundaries of specific tax zon...
The Temecula City Council will leave vacant both the position of mayor and the open seat on the council following the resignation of former mayor James Stewart, councilmembers agreed Tuesday night. Councilmembers quickly came to the conclusion that the closeness of the upcoming election - Stewart was up for reelection in November regardless - made it more practical to allow voters to decide on Stewart's replacement on the council. As for the position of mayor, which is rotated...

TEMECULA – Pechanga leaders announced the decision to forego Fourth of July fireworks this year citing its nearly three-month resort and casino closure and the need to avoid mass gatherings for public health. “We take great pride in bringing a grand fireworks display to our community and to our guests every Fourth of July,” Jared Munoa, president of the Pechanga Development Corporation, said. “Although progress has been made in stemming the spread of COVID-19, there are still too many risks associated with mass gatheri...

A 5-0 San Diego County Board of Supervisors vote Tuesday, June 24, approved the recertification for the 0.68 miles between Winter Haven Road and Stage Coach Lane.

Periodic recertification, including a supporting speed survey, is required for continued radar enforcement and the...
A video interview has surfaced in the last couple weeks where one of the Black Lives Matter founders explains that she and another founder are trained Marxists. This explains a few things. Karl Marx created communism through socialism. Many, if not most, of the Black Lives Matter protests across the country are not violent. However, the ones rioting, looting, destroying peoples’ private property and businesses, and tearing down statues in the name of equality are. This is an o... Full story
When the COVID-19 pandemic struck, state revenues began to plummet, while spending on unemployment insurance and social programs increased exponentially. The result – our $21 billion surplus suddenly transformed into a $54.3 billion deficit. The budget that passed June 15 was the beginning of discussions between the governor and the Legislature over a series of trailer bills that implement the budget. Questions remained about how to maintain California’s fiscal solvency wit... Full story
There are some of us who do take exception to the actions, and inactions, of our current president, an inveterate liar, small-time grifter and huckster who made it to the big time, and hypocrite. In 2016: Trump said: “"We're bringing it (the gross domestic product) from 1% up to 4%. And I actually think we can go higher than 4%. I think you can go to 5% or 6%." In 2017, Trump said: “This huge tax cut will be rocket fuel for our economy,” “it will pay for itself,” and “everybody gets a tax cut.” Except for the tax cut, the... Full story
Are masks mandated to protect us? Or is that mandate an unwarranted government intrusion? It appears that Dr. James D. Veltmeyer and I are having a debate. I wrote a letter entitled, "Virus detection and prevention" which Village News published in its April 16 issue; I took advantage of the opportunity to help Fallbrook residents reduce the transmission of COVID-19 among ourselves by explaining how wearing face masks and hand-washing, properly done, prevents infection. Was that information helpful? Two weeks after the letter... Full story
