FALLBROOK – Fallbrook’s Brandon Gallery echoes a century-old tradition of artists’ collaboration with an “Exquisite Corpse” project in October, it was announced last week. Noreen Ring, gallery director, said that several teams of artists are creating unique paintings of a figure; however, in keeping with the unpredictability of the “Cadavre Exquis” art form, each person is not seeing the entire “body of work” by the other artists, but only enough to know where and how t...

BONSALL – New to the “Z” gallery is award-winning artist Roger Chandler. His vibrant compositions from his “Go Fast” series are influenced by his many travels as a surfer to exotic locations around the globe. Inspired by the yellow and orange sunsets seen through translucent ocean waves, this artist conveys his experiences to the viewer through the flow of his brilliantly-hued compositions. Although Chandler’s paintings express a spontaneous quality, they are the product of...

FALLBROOK – On Oct. 4, the Fallbrook vs. Rancho Bernardo Mitey Mite football game was expected to be played in extreme temperatures. For one boy, Tommy Tait, extreme emotions were reached that day as well.

Last month, Tommy’s father, Thoma... Full story

FALLBROOK – Busy families are increasingly looking to free up time in their busy schedules. While certain shortcuts can make daily life more manageable, families sometimes pay too steep a price in their efforts to save time. Such is the case at the dinner table, where nutrition is often sacrificed at the expense of convenience. But quick and easy meals need not be void of nutrition and flavor. North Americans have increasingly turned to fast food, convenience items and...
FALLBROOK – With less than three months left in the year, now is the time to check the status of health plan deductibles and schedule necessary appointments, recommended testing, and surgeries before Dec. 31. Most health insurance plans have a deductible requirement – a predetermined amount of healthcare expenses that must be covered before the plan begins paying the majority (if not all) of expenses related to necessary medical care. “If you have been putting off scheduling prescribed care, such as an annual c...

Words cannot begin to describe the level of anguish that has gone into trying to find a suitable solution for Fallbrook Hospital. Based upon the alternatives presented, there simply was not one solution that was going to meet the wide and varied interests of all those affected by the outcome of this decision. At the end of the day finding a solution that attempted to balance those interests seemed most appropriate. Initially receiving a number of letters of interest from several major health systems provided a glimmer of...

In response to Romney in 2016, and as a member of Romney’s defined 47 percent, his candidacy is what we do not need, e.g., more plant closures for profit (Bain Capital) and outsourcing, and disdain for middle- and lower-class Americans. In the last election, the American public already made the wise decision to not elect Romney. Integrity and ethics you say? President Obama has been open about his feelings, beliefs, and values; that is integrity and ethics. He is transparent about his operating, humanistic, and i... Full story
In order to work for the local school districts you have to have a criminal background check. However, we have someone running for elementary school board who was convicted of theft just last year. William (Bill) Leach was originally charged with theft and more after turning over to the Village News handmade checks with other people’s information on them. We were very impressed with Fallbrook Detective Steve Ashkar who put together a solid case to hand to the District Attorney’s office, but it appears what happened after it... Full story
As a mother, I can think of nothing worse than an assault involving a child. While providing legal protection for children in cases of domestic violence has always been a top priority of our court system, children who are present and witness these acts but remain physically unharmed have not been afforded the same legal safeguards. Existing law authorizes courts to issue specified protective restraining orders upon a good cause belief that harm or intimidation of a victim is... Full story
