Sad news washed over the worldwide surf community today, as news that legendary surfer and shaper Don Hansen has passed away. He was 88 years old.
Hansen was a lifelong surfer, and the mind behind Hansen Surfboards, an iconic surfboard brand born in the sixties and enduring throughout decades. Out of the shaping room, Hansen was also a notable wave-rider, landing on the cover of this very magazine in 1962.
May the final paddle out be smooth and the waves perfect. See you on the other side.....

RIP. ๐ข
DeleteAs expected, The Freakshow is totally disrespectful as usual.
Elevator and the Blakespear puke clan do not understand the importance of appreciating and respecting local heroes. Thank you, Don Hansen, for being a living example of a true American๐บ๐ธ living a bold and vigorous life.
Thank you for your contributions to setting the culture in Encinitas. Godspeed Don ❤️
Thanks for contributing to the tribute to Don Hansen...No class...

DeleteW Bush created the moniker “Axis of Evil” to lump together Iraq, Iran, and North Korea.
ReplyDeleteSince then the US has attacked Iraq and Iran, but not North Korea.
What lesson do you think the world has learned?
Get nukes now. By any means necessary.
The US has caused the world to get more unstable and dangerous.
Such a disrespectful freak show turd.
DeleteCan we retire the "freakshow" name calling and get back to discussing topics on here?
Deleteif it walks like a freak and talks like a freak…. You call it what it looks and talks like

DeleteI find it weird that everyone speaks in reverent tones about a businessman who cashed in on the commercialization of surf culture.
ReplyDeleteHe sold a lifestyle of slack key guitar, corduroy shorts, and tanned bodies to fund a different life in Montana.
Good for him. He was a great businessman, and did very well for himself. His family should be proud.
But he’s not all that different from the condo builders. In fact, he’s probably responsible for a goodly chunk of the condo demand.
It’s difficult to separate surf culture from its exploitation for money.
Wow. If you can't wish RIP then STFU and sit down. Jesus.
Delete10:27- amen to that.
DeleteRIP Don. ❤️
Wrong time, wrong space to have a conversation about commercialization of surf culture. Save that for the whole Mickey Dora/Gidget universe of surf blaming. California is full of surf shops, Hansen's is our iconic shop in this area. 'Nuff said.

ReplyDeleteThe trolls are intentionally trying to shut down the blog. They do this all the time. Ignore them. Respond and they stay, Ignore and they leave.
ReplyDeleteAnd they always blame city staff when called out. Limited acuity is common among them.
ReplyDeleteHow are trolls trying to shut down the blog? Different people have different opinions, deal with it....
ReplyDeleteDon was MAGA!
ReplyDeleteDon also despised Madam Blakespear, often speaking out and spreading lies of our future Governor. Sorry I won’t support Don the fascist MAGA!
ReplyDeleteLots of Dems and true Progressives despise her. She's an equal opportunity despisee! Many of all political stripes see through and reject with disgust her virtue signaling antics.
DeleteSo many people hate her. That's why she keeps getting elected.
DeleteThe first sentence is true.
DeleteObvious Moose Communications
ReplyDeleteAbout attempting to shut down this blog: there are several people involved in Encinitas politics who don't like it when they can't control the narrative and are denied the opportunity of attacking and smearing those that write something they disagree with.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a good idea to move on to a new post in any case. This isn't the place to be arguing and insulting.
Yes, and it started 2020. Cathy Blakespear did nothing to stop the on line harassment. Agree, this may not be the best blog to discuss local passings. just pound on drums ...nd shit all over their message.
DeleteScreen shut while typing. Basically, they are pounding drums and shitting all over themselves. Ignore them.
DeleteTrue that. Freakshow comments don’t matter. SellBlakespear’s second senior center, and let’s get the cities financial health back in focus.

ReplyDeleteNew post please. City Council today.
This clown council that just gave a gigantic raise to a completely incompetent AZ Jenny that was requested by her snake crony is now addressing a gigantic revenue heavy budget which they’ve tanked again. Again Ehlers is following Blakespears former direction. ๐
https://encinitas.granicus.com/GeneratedAgendaViewer.php?view_id=7&event_id=5385
Then we have Dr. Luke who’s going to try and talk tonight at City Council meeting, and explain why he like a skate park with his name on it when the city can’t even keep us safe and pave our roads.
https://encinitas.granicus.com/MetaViewer.php?view_id=7&event_id=5636&meta_id=202343
can’t wait to see Dr. Luke try and say something tonight. it would be funny if it wasn’t so sad for Encinitas.
Shit show is on its way for later today.
Hopefully the local heroes can take time off of work while trying to pay their taxes and go provide some sage comments to this insane city council. Ehlers seems to only know how to follow Blakespear and her Gal Pal, AZ Jenny’s lead.
Sad, sad sad days for Encinitas. ๐ญ

We love our local heroes. ๐๐❤️

DeleteWe received word from our insides yesterday that Arizona Jenny gave direction for staffers to clog the blog today.
ReplyDeleteBig budget day and she realizes the Informed residence are not happy with the last council meeting and how clueless the city council is acting.
The city Council is completely ignoring logical comments provided by local heroes.
Sad days and Encinitas but hopefully they’ll be some decent candidates running for Mayor. Currently, we have two losers.
I heard the same thing for my friend inside City Hall
DeleteSo sad that Encinitas, known through San Diego as the PB Norte, continues to experience such a high rate of DUI drivers. it seems Ehlers continues to support the party zone.
ReplyDeleteIt’s amazing that high school students and teachers approached city council all the time with suggestion to curtail the party atmosphere. The city sponsored drug huts and party promotions are killing moms and our children. Why aren’t there more sheriffs arresting these DUI drivers?
Why are there so many drug huts, bars and alcohol distribution centers in Encinitas?
A North County man accused of driving drunk and fleeing the scene of a fatal crash that killed a 62-year-old man in San Marcos appeared in court Tuesday, where his arraignment was postponed.
John Javier Alvarado, 39, faces charges including gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and murder in connection with the Feb. 21 death of Carey Faust, a longtime landscaping business owner.
The death zones have to stop. Encinitas needs to focus on sound fiscal policy to keep us safe and fix our roads.
So sad because it’s incredibly senseless and no action is taken to correct the situation.
Listen to the sage advice of local heroes like Greg Lafave. ๐

DeleteSurprise this one wasn’t in Encinitas. Many more to come and Encinitas with the focus on the parties zone. ๐ข
I agree City staff like Jennifer Campbell need to go, as do some other bad staffers, but you also have to realize that 90% of city staff are Democrats. Just like Kranz, Blakespear, Remer, Lorena, Fletcher. San Diego is primarily Democrat and look at the problems we have, from SANDAG to business leaving in mass exodus. Keep electing the same party, raising taxes and making it difficult to prosper and people and businesses alike will leave.
ReplyDeletethat’s all accurate, but Ehlers needs to pull his head out of his ass and start doing better locally.
DeleteDr. Luke is just a freaking moron. And even the other two had ridiculous comments at the last city council meeting. So disappointing.
Who would be your choice to replace Ehlers and Luke?
DeleteAnyone with clear logic and fiscal responsibility.
DeleteYou gotta have names! You gotta have a plan! So who would be your replacement?
DeleteI would support multiple people. Anyone with clear logic and fiscal responsibility.
DeleteWatch the last city Council meeting and you’ll know what I’m talking about.
This current city council is a freaking clown show.
Keep Bruce, he's the centrist we've needed. I don't know that 90% of the staffers are Dems, I could see 60-70%. Business is not leaving in a mass exodus, at least near the coast. This is where the rich live now. Being on council is a non partisan position. If you can't solve the local problems, you're a liability...
DeleteThis is the problem with people, lots of shit talking about how awful people are but no solution. If you wanna actually get rid of Jennifer Campbell, like so many do because of her inflated salary and history of not playing well with others, I’d vocalize it at this evenings council meeting, even better get a bunch of people to speak up. That’s how you get things done. Make it public with large backing of community.
ReplyDeleteTalk is cheap homegirl.
DeleteAre you a local hero and will you show up at city Council tonight??
I'm a local hero and I'm not coming to the meeting. Neither are you. If the council didn't get rid of Gus Vina, they won't get rid of Jennifer Campbell. What does the city manager of Carlsbad make: answer, $326,000.
DeleteIf you were a local hero, you show up.
DeleteThe last good city manager was Kerry Miller.
There are literally hundreds of highly qualified city managers from around the state that the City Council could choose from.
Who wouldn’t want to be a city manager of a revenue rich city like this?
There’s so much fat in the budget and so much fat in city staff Full-time employee positions to trim. It would be a dream job.
How many personnel should be let go and in what departments. Be specific.
DeleteMost obnoxious repetitive pointless comments here (day after day):
ReplyDelete"deflection rejected"
"Freakshow comments don't matter"

ReplyDeleteSo shitting on other people besides City Staff is ok? Lots of people besides staff getting shit on who don’t have the opportunity to defend themselves. But yea in your world that’s ok.
DeleteShit on someone who might beat your ass and see how it goes.
DeleteWhen the average city employee in Encinitas is getting paid six figures I think some fat needs to be trimmed, especially when they have to hire consulting firms to do their jobs.
ReplyDelete
DeleteAren't the workers in most cities getting paid that much? I think there's a case to be made there in some instances, but then you probably have to run on that platform, and even then, good luck cutting people's jobs. Not that easy...
Jennifer Campbell is an awful City Manager. Jace Schwarm, Jennifer’s BFF is also awful, she was our previous City Manager’s right hand woman and made a mess under Blakespear and Kranz’s terms. Both need to be let go. Neither of these employees add value and can easily be replaced by more qualified people.
ReplyDeleteCouncil needs to fire AZ Jenny (Jen Campbell)

ReplyDeleteThis!
DeleteSo confusing trying to keep this straight.
12:14 - review past blog posts and you will find your answer. Thank you.
DeleteOver the decades, I too have questioned the salaries our city employees have been paid. This was based upon all the work they were hired for while farming out most of that work to highly paid consultants that don't live here and could care less about our quality of life.
ReplyDeleteThe current City Manager is incompetent and that leads all the bad decisions being made daily at City Hall.
DeleteWith a competent City Manager, everything would work better in Encinitas.

DeleteWhat were Mr. Taylor's qualifications for school board when he first ran?
DeleteI believe voters deciding to elect him twice and being a parent with kids actually in public school is better than many candidates are doing.
DeleteWhat were Mr Taylor's qualifications for running for school board? Actively participating in the school system that his kids were attending, engaging with teachers and other parents, and being open and willing to learn. What is Mr. Houbeck's qualifications for UFAC? Besides being a troll online and swindling people as an attorney. (Look him up. Lots of complaints about him and his "professional" practices)
DeleteI have to believe the s... will hit fan when this comes back to council in May. Glenn Park deserves to remain as it is with a bit of a rare sanctuary so worth defending.
ReplyDeleteThe Glen Park bowl shape will be an amplifier.
Save the Green. We need all the sanctuaries we can save.
The Community Park has more than enough space.
Wow, Luke Jim and Marco. They managed to piss off the cardiff elected representative and mayor and cardiff residents with their boneheaded idea. Then they insulted and argued with anyone that disagreed with their fuckup. My personal favorite was insinuating the public speakers were (a) old and (b) discriminating against skaters and just needed to modernize and accept noise because skating is rad and that's where they want their bowl dammit.
ReplyDeleteWhy do you need a skatepark in Glen when there's one just up the street in the big park. Leave Glen Park as it is....
DeleteThe city council bros should ask little Oliver how he feels about a bowl in his backyard. L7 is on the list of options.

All comments were great, except the petty comments by crazy eyes. How ridiculous to want to place Vegas style blinking likes at every stop sign in Encinitas. They do nothing but intensify the sign polllution on Vulcan Avenue at Union and La Costa, and other locations. They have no positive effects. Stupid idea crazyeyes and developer's whore Joy.
The intelligence of the local heroes is self evident and highlights the lack of skill sets and planning of the overpaid and golden parachute incompetent City Manager and her snake side kick.
City Council approving even more deadwood full time employees at City Hall is telling, and reduces the City's abiltiy to fund programs to keep us safe and fix our roads, along with all the other great suggestions presented by the local heroes.
This City Council and the BIAspear City Manager run a clown show. They don't even complete an annual Long Term Financial Plan. Kindergarden hour.
Luce Aillers continually shows he is a BIAspear supporter and supporters her incompetent City Manager with a lighter focus on developer profits. Dr. Luke is a knuckle dragging mouth breather. More on the rest later.
Why would they fund another grade separated at Verdi street when the quiet zone and grade separated crossing throughout Encinitas and construction funding is not completed.
The whole Leucadia railroad crossing issue came from Tony's fence that continues to hurt those crossing in historical pedestrian pathways. Del Mar said NO. Tony said Yes.
Remove the unnecessary fence and you cure the crossing program.
The quiet zone is still the number one priority fund the construction of the quiet zone prior to funding any other new project.
With a competent City Council, there first action would be to hire a competent free thinking City Manager, not a left over BIAspear Incompetent insider that has shown time and time again her incompetence.
Until this core issue is addressed, Encinitas is screwed and will continue to be a shit show. ๐๐พ

DeleteThe problem with MAGA is it’s entirely based on the Dunning Kruger effect.
DeleteIt’s a bunch of dumb people who think they are smart.
It’s all the people and policies that created Alabama, Mississippi, and West Virginia, thinking they should impose their policies on the states that actually invent things and drive the US economy.
It plays out on every level. Locally, we have people like Luke who is clearly intellectually disabled and never had a real private sector job coasting through life on nice hair and making dumb decisions that affect the rest of us.
Before the internet, everyone around them reinforced that they were morons, and so they largely kept to themselves. But now they found each other, and a class of selfish power brokers willing to lie to them and tell them they are actually smart.
They get told they know more about medicine through their intuition than actual smart people conducting complex and advanced research.
Whatever they don’t understand, they either ridicule and dismiss, or just simply make up lies that reflect what they want to believe.
It’s a literal kakistocracy.
Woods and Zenick don't live in Encinitas.
DeleteMore misinformation. Mali lives in Leucadia and has for years. I see her walking her dog all the time. I don't know where Amanda Zenick lives.

Delete9:12 you sound just like Hillary Clinton “the deplorables”. The Progressives are so arrogant, it’s the reason 3/4 of the states voted red and the great blue wall came tumbling down. The arrogance. It’s why the Democrats will continue to lose.
ReplyDeleteMAGA is as stupid and greedy as they come. Absolute shit of humanity. Im glad someone called it early.
DeleteMAGA voting at the state level correlates with poverty, obesity, drug and alcohol abuse, missing teeth, incest, soda consumption, fast food, high school dropout rate, gun deaths, teen pregnancy, welfare, racism, violent crime, personal bankruptcy, smoking, and lack of healthcare access.
DeleteIt is life’s losers telling others how to live.
12:05 all you do is make the Progressive Democrat party even worse when you make comments like that. Keep it up, keep dragging your party through the mud, I love it.
Delete12:21, sorry your feelings got hurt by an obvious true statement.
Delete1:49 I don’t think you realize how emotionally unintelligent you come across with your words. Like a child throwing a tantrum. But I won’t lie, I love it….Keep giving the Progressive Democrats a bad image, it’s why you lost the last presidential election and why you’ll lose the next.
DeleteLooking forward to your rebuttal ๐
1:49
DeleteYour statements are always flawed quite simply because you confuse correlation with causation and paint millions of people with a single, negative stereotype. Social and health outcomes like poverty, obesity, or crime are driven by complex factors such as geography, economic opportunity, and education not simply how someone votes. You also rely on cherry-picked data and use insults instead of evidence, which makes it more about attacking a group than making a valid argument.
But like I said, keep making the Progressive Democrat party look bad, I won’t stop you.
But you can fairly question people in the deep south voting against their own interests and getting more of the same crappy leadership, poor schools, lack of hospitals etc. It's the poorest area for a reason...
Delete3:08 “Poor schools”?
DeleteI think its worth noting that California despite being one of the wealthiest states in the country also has some of the lowest testing scores nationally K-12. Data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) consistently shows California students performing below the national average in key subjects like math and reading.
Let’s not stop there, CA water is ranked among some of the worst in nation and air quality has consistently ranked CA as the worst. I could go and on.
California is home to the majority of the top 10 most polluted cities in the U.S. for ozone and particulate matter. Then ask yourself what party governs CA.

DeleteViewing the US presidential electoral map through the lens of public health
Delete“ Health, disease, and mortality vary greatly at the county level, and there are strong geographical trends of disease in the United States. Healthcare is and has been a top priority for voters in the U.S., and an important political issue. Consequently, it is important to determine what relationship voting patterns have with health, disease, and mortality, as doing so may help guide appropriate policy. We performed a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between voting patterns and over 150 different public health and wellbeing variables at the county level, comparing all states, including counties in 2016 battleground states, and counties in states that flipped from majority Democrat to majority Republican from 2012 to 2016. We also investigated county-level health trends over the last 30+ years and find statistically significant relationships between a number of health measures and the voting patterns of counties in presidential elections. Collectively, these data exhibit a strong pattern: counties that voted Republican in the 2016 election had overall worse health outcomes than those that voted Democrat.”
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8294501/
The above link is to the Trump administration’s National Institutes of Health.
4:16 That passage is from a published research paper, not a NIH government policy statement.
DeleteThe study is: “County-level voting patterns and health outcomes in the United States” (published in PLOS ONE, 2018). So the claims reflect the authors’ analysis and conclusions, not an institutional position.
It simply means the study is indexed or archived for public access, but in no way endorsed by the NIH. It's a research paper done by an independent author.
The NIH and NLM do not adopt all studies and they didn't sponsor or accept this one.
4:51, you’ve missed the important part.
DeleteWe are being run by morons.
4:16
DeleteThe authored study is inconclusive and misleading because it overinterprets a statistical relationship.
First, it shows correlation, not causation. It does not prove that voting patterns affect health outcomes.
Second, it relies on county-level data, which creates an Ecological Fallacy, you cannot draw conclusions about individuals from group averages.
Third, it does not fully account for confounding factors like income, education, rural vs. urban location, and healthcare access, all of which strongly influence health and are also linked to voting patterns.

4:51 again emotional immaturity, no facts just name calling. I love it, keep it coming. It certainly isn't helping your party and it'll be the reason you lose this next presidential election. So keep all the childish responses coming ๐
