Times-Advocate from Escondido, California • 12

TIMES ADVOCATE B2 SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1993 1 NORTH COUNTY CONTINUED FROSyiy one for San Marcos? ATTORNEY: New new position as city attorney. I think for the most part, conflicts have been resolved through resignations, he said, adding that if there is ever the appearance of a conflict, he will not participate in that particular matter. Lounsbery said one of his major roles will be to help San Marcos set up its new City Hall for a full-time attorney who would work for the city alone. Lounsberys appointment in San Marcos would be the latest in a series of high-profile public and private positions he has held in North County in the past two decades. His regional debut began in 1970 as the city attorney for Escondido, where he remained for two years before taking a job as city attorney for South Lake Tahoe.

ORDER: Suspect form overdose early that morning. But Pfefferblit and other witnesses, including Dubrias father, said the 29-year-old New Jersey doctor is hardly the type to carry out such a horrendous crime. The testimony Friday bolstered easier statements from two forensic psychologists who said Dubria does not meet the standard profile of a rapist. Typically, the psychologists testified Thursday, rapists come from rocky family backgrounds and care little about others. The character witnesses said Dubria, who faces a potential life sentence, comes from a warm and loving Filipino-American family that supported him through medical school.

I never hurt my children, Dubrias father, Paterno Dubria, testified. I may have raised my voice, but I never raised my hands on them. Dubrias father, an engineer, said the familys Glendale home was almost always full of cousins, aunts, uncles and other members of Dubrias extended family.

BRIEFLY I Council rejects reduced water conservation SAN DIEGO Whether the drought is officially over in Southern California, the City Council wants residents to maintain a high standard of water conservation. Council members unanimously rejected a recommendation Tuesday to reduce San Diegos voluntary goal of cutting water use from 20 percent of 1989 levels to 10 percent. The reduced conservation goal was recommended by city Water Utilities Department officials based on actions by state and regional water authorities following this winters heavy precipitation.

for manslaughter Soules reference to meth drew a sharp rebuke from the judge, who told him there is no such thing as recreational use of drugs. This was not a momentary incident of negligence, said Hammes. I find he has shown no remorse. I feel there is a high likelihood that if not imprisoned, he would be a danger to society. Soules attorney, Fred Small, urged the judge to look at this case like other vehicular manslaughter cases and said Soule could benefit from a drug rehabilitation program.

Small said his client was remorseful. The probation report said Soule wrote a letter of apology to Tommy Driggers Sr. a month after his wifes death and vowed never to use drugs again. The prosecutor pointed out that Soule was already on probation from a drunken driving incident. Hes had his chance.

Hes refused to take responsibility for his conduct and that cost Janet Driggers life, argued Davis.

Meetings scheduled to review economy plan ESCONDIDO Meetings are set for next week and the week after to give business people a chance to comment on the framework of a sweeping plan to strengthen the local economy.

She also described some of the gruesome injuries that led to Janet Driggers death while others cried softly in the audience. The sister pointed at Soule and said loudly: Jason, you wrenched the life blood out of my sister! Mr. Soule, youre a selfish, uncaring (person).

Soule, dressed in blue jail clothes, bowed his head and remained silent, as did his mother, who was also in an opposite front row seat. You must pay for the crimes you committed, said the sister, who added that she was sad that the maximum sentence for vehicular manslaughter was only four years. Soule could have been eligible for a 10-year term had the jury found that he committed manslaughter with gross negligence and while driving under the influence of methamphetamine. The jurors deadlocked 8-4 in favor of conviction on Dec. 16 over the latter charges and Soules re-trial on those counts is set for Feb.

19. However, Deputy District Attorney Gordon Davis said Soules attorney has filed a double jeopardy motion, saying he has already been tried and convicted for the main offense. That motion will be heard Wednesday. Because he got the upper term, well have to re-evaluate (a re-trial), said Davis. Tommy Driggers said he wants a re-trial, but was very pleased he got the upper term.

The head-on collision occurred at 4:47 a.m. while Janet Driggers was on her way to work at the University of California at San Diego. Soule told a probation officer he didnt know what caused the crash, but that he had used methamphetamine before as a recreational drug. PIONEERS: Forging into future Lounsbery returned to Escondido in 1976 this time as city manager where he negotiated the lease for the North County Fair shopping center, streamlined administrative positions, and hired a new public works director and chief of police. In 1980 he began a two-year stint with Higgs, Fletcher Mack, the Escondido law office through which San Marcos would be hiring Lounsberys services.

Higgs, Fletcher Mack also gives legal advice to the city of Vista, with Ron Null as the contracted attorney. Lounsbery left the Escondido law firm in 1982 to take a job as vice president and general counsel for Lusardi, later taking over as president of Servcon Inc. He left that position late last year to rejoin Higgs, Fletcher Mack. described as kind last week. Under questioning from defense attorney Barry Bernstein, the witnesses said Dubria was also extraordinarily intent on his medical career, and had decided as early as junior high school to become a doctor.

He was constantly striving, working very hard, said Carlo Caballero, a graduate student who has known Dubria since ju-. nior high. It was obviously the main goal of his life. On Thursday, a psychologist testified that Dubria chose to temporarily forgo serious relationships with women because his busy schedule would prevent him from devoting enough energy to a relationship. Prosecutor Tim Casserly' seemed to downplay the testimony Friday, opting not to cross-examine the character witnesses in depth.

Casserly did not question Paterno Dubria, for example, and had only a brief exchange with Caballero: Casserly: You werent in Carlsbad on Aug. 16, 1991, were you? Caballero: No. Casserly: No further questions. ones. Hunt said developing tools is one of the greatest challenges the company faces.

Technology today does not support our level of creativity. Hunt also said he wishes there were more computer animation companies in San Diego because it would stimulate competition and the companies would be able to share ideas. Angel said he decided to stay in the San Diego area rather than move to Los Angeles because he feels Carlsbad is a more creative environment. Coming to the company would be like a vacation for our (L.A.) clients, Angel said. But the studios location could be a disadvantage if the clients prefer to supervise and work closely with the project, Angel added.

Angel said that in the future he wants to continue to make commercials and produce computer-animated feature films. But computer-generated actors will not replace live actors, Sontag said. She explained that it is impossible for the computer to create all of the human bodys fine details, such as skin pores. Vallecitos Water District wins regional award SAN MARCOS The California Water Pollution Control Association, San Diego County Section has issued its annual small collector system award to the Vallecitos Water District. The award was based on the local districts record-keeping, equipment, and the condition of its facilities, said General Manager Bill Rucker.

Water board members presented the award to the districts employees at its regular meeting Wednesday. The regional award qualifies the Vallecitos district to compete for a state award to be issued later this year. Although this is the first year the local district has won the small collector system award, it is a three-time winner of the associations small treatment plant award for the San Diego County Section, Rucker said.

City Councilman Tom Behr summed up the skepticism shared by several of his colleagues in saying it seems to be foolhardy to lower the goal of San Diegos voluntary watersaving effort. We may well be over our drought, said Behr.

But we still have the necessity to recognize that we live in a desert and we dont need to squander this precious resource. On that basis, I think we ought to continue with a 20 percent goal, or even higher, to show people that we promote conservation. A resolution adopted by the council on April 12, 1991, urged city residents to voluntarily cut water use by 20 percent in what then was the fifth straight year In recent interviews, evolutionists said creationists do not understand scientific method and are trying to force their religious views onto students. Creationists, they said, look at the world through a filter of their fanatic religious beliefs and cannot see reality. If schools taught creationism, they said, thousands of children would lose out on education.

At the seminar, audience members predictably disagreed. Its time we got some education on the subject, said Ken Fetzer, a missionary to the homeless who lives in his van. They took it out of schools, and then things started to deteriorate. To help understand the word of God, it helps to be informed, said Heather Browm of Vista. name, not focus bureau has always been to promote North San Diego County as a viable tourism destination, said Bud DeSantis, president of the bureaus board of directors.

CREATION: Vistans attend a seminar diverse computer and graphic backgrounds have created the companys well-rounded approach to animation. There is definitely a chemistry, Angel said. We all share the same passion computer graphics.

Hunt said it is difficult to find people with a fine arts and a computer background, which is one reason the company consists of only 12 employees. We do not want to get too big too fast, he added. The companys first project was a scientific visual video for University of California at San Diego. Since then, Angel Studios has completed commercials for industrial corporations, Nintendo, Polaroid and Koreas Asian Airlines. Word of mouth and Angel Studios reputation from prior projects enabled the small company to be chosen to create the special effects for The Lawn-mower Man, Sontag said.

We had to prove we could do it and set a reasonable price, Angel added. The companys latest project is a 12-minute movie that combines live action with computer graphics. Combining computer animation and live action gives a look never seen before, Hunt said. This project focuses on energy and will simulate sequences such as the Big Bang, mankinds discovery of energy and a futuristic city free from pollution. The movie will be shown on a special screen this August at EXPO 93 in Koreas Kepco Pavilion.

Kep-co is Koreas electronic company. Angel Studios has developed its own software system, SCE-NIX, which allows the company more creative freedom. What makes us good and different is that we develop our own software instead of buying it, Angel said. Clients can present Angel Studios with a visual problem, and the company will develop custom tools instead of relying on prepackaged software. Angel said the company also incorporates the technology from past, projects into new Continued from B1 who was, and I have his word.

Humans can never know all, nor even comprehend what they dont know, because only God has ultimate knowledge, he said. Creationists, he said, begin with the Bible and then try to find evidence for its stories. By believing in evolution, he said, some Christians are denying the essence of their religion. He went on to mention several tenets of creationist thought: Man arose from Adam and Eve. God created the world in six days.

Dinosaurs lived with man. Noahs flood caused erosion, such as in the Grand Canyon. No supporters of evolution were involved in the seminar, which continues today from 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. BUREAU: Changes Continued from B1 destination marketing organization, it needs to have an identity that consumers across the United States, Canada and other countries can readily identify and locate, explained Mattson.
