FIVE FOLD Diamond Award Winner Navajo Canyon RWF January Luncheon Meeting Chartered in 1962 January 2014 Date: January 14, 2014 Vol. 2014.1 Time: 11 a.m., check-in at 10:30 a.m. Editor—Sally Steele Place: The Brigantine Restaurant, 9350 Fuerte Dr., La Mesa [email protected] Reservations: Please call Kit Bassett at 619-286-2835 or click on 527 Tax Exempt Org. [email protected] to send an e-mail. Please make sure you put RSVP in the reference line. Cost: $20 at the door. If paying by check, please have it ready and payable to NCRWF. Program: Former San Diego City Councilman Fred Schnaubelt (1977-81) will be the featured speaker as NCRWF returns to its regular meeting schedule January 14 at The Brigantine restaurant in La Mesa. Schnaubelt, who has been a suc- cessful businessman and commentator in San Diego for nearly 40 years, is well- known for his pointed political opinions which he shares with good humor. His latest book, Romancing the Voters, will be the subject of his talk. From the President—Marjie Siekerka First, I would like to thank the 2013 board and President Waskah Whelan for an amazing job in service to NCRWF. If you did not know, Waskah was voted in unanimously as President of SDCFRW during the convention here in San Diego. Don’t worry we will not be losing Waskah, we will be gaining more insight. Waskah will still be in charge of Campaigns and Precincts for us, and she will be attending our meetings! Speaking about Campaigns, we have an important elec- tion coming up on February 11th, the same day as our meeting, for the Mayor of San Diego. As you know, Kevin Faulconer is the Republican endorsed candidate, and he needs your help. He won the primary easily against 3 Democrats, but, they are pooling their resources against him. Per Jason Roe, the Republicans comprise only : 27% of the registered voters in the City of San Diego. The last poll Mr. Faulconer had drawn even in the race against David Alvarez, the Democrats’ candidate. Alva- rez has also raised $1 million more than Falconer! We need to help get out the vote if we don’t want the newly elected mayor to keep with the Bob Filner radical poli- cies of the left. To volunteer please call: 858-450-4600. NCRWF has some grand plans for 2014 including dynamic speakers, an anoth- NEWS evening meeting or two, a Bunco day with a vendor fair, and of course Presented by Presented NAVAJO NAVAJO (Continued on page 3) CANYON Please remember to use the lower Remember to check our website where you will find parking lot at the Brigantine. information about our club, monthly newsletter, Taco Tuesdays are popular! important dates, and contact information Please be respectful.

Page 4 NAVAJO CANYON NEWS Cold Hard Facts It may be summer in Antarctica, but a group of scientists on a global warming expedition were dealt an ironic twist after their ship became stranded due to exceptionally thick sea ice. Several ships were forced to avert rescue attempts after also running into adverse conditions. A helicopter was finally deployed in a last-ditch effort to pick up the 52 pas- sengers stranded for 10 days. All this embarrassment could have been avoided if the crew had simply looked at the cold hard facts: Antarctica continues to mount record after record for sea ice expansion, and the globe is cooling – a development not projected by climate models.
