OCEANSIDE — No tests are needed nor given to become a loan signing notary. And no matter how slow the market is, loan signing agents are still needed. There is no need to be a commissioned notary or even have received the results of the exam, but agents do have to take a notary class. California’s real estate industry is in need of notaries and others who would like to become loan document specialists. “Certified Notary-Loan Signing Agent,” offered through MiraCosta College’s Community Services Program, will help participa...

When Mary Ellen Langlois moved to Fallbrook in 2000, she never anticipated feeling such a strong bond with her new community.

So, there I sat praying and miserable. At least God would understand. Surely he would have an answer. I was convinced that through prayer, this difficult situation would be handled; the person who was not cooperating and causing such upset would be convicted or God would show me a way to handle this ordeal. As I sat in my angelic position, pleading with God, eyes closed, I got this image of Jesus standing between my bed and the dresser, his head cast down and heavy from an enormous crown of thorns. He wore only a white... Full story
Every fall as the weather begins to change and the nights become cooler, it always starts me thinking of the upcoming holidays just around the corner. This is truly my favorite time of year; however, with this comes a great deal of busyness which requires a great deal of planning. At times it can feel overwhelming to the point that I start asking myself, “Why am I even doing this?” (Sometimes I get a little “attitudy.”) So many plans with so many people who are affected by so many decisions can weigh heavily on a person. Some...

When the Fallbrook Warriors celebrate Homecoming this weekend, it will be the first of a new era – one without the pageantry of tissue-paper-covered floats and bursts of steam from make-believe volcanoes, but one that will highlight the tremendous contribution local high school students can make to their community. The change of format for Homecoming was made because the new state-of-the-art track surface installed at Warrior Stadium cannot accommodate the weight of floats b... Full story

In the past, Sheriff’s deputies in Fallbrook have primarily issued verbal warnings to individuals illegally skateboarding and loitering on commercial properties. That level of tolerance is rapidly coming to an end, Sgt. Ron McCracken said. From this point on, after one warning is issued, skateboarders trespassing on private property will be arrested and taken to jail, or juvenile hall, depending on their age, he said. “I’m not against skateboarders, but when you can’t walk on the sidewalks safely, something has to be done,...
