TOP NEWS DANA POINT SHOULD KNOW THIS WEEK

Local Girl Scout Shares Wellness Toolkit at Annual Voice for Girls Event

The Girl Scouts of Orange County is taking action to address what it calls a growing mental health crisis among teenage girls by offering mental health first aid training and counseling for Girl Scouts at no cost.

Just as Mental Health Awareness Month kicked off, the county’s Girl Scouts hosted its 12th annual Voice for Girls advocacy event on Friday, May 5, featuring a panel discussion of mental wellness and sustainable action projects launched to help others overcome mental health issues.

Girl Scouts of Orange County CEO Vikki Shepp emphasized that “in this ever-changing, post-pandemic world, Girl Scouts of Orange County is committed to providing our girls with what they need to build courage, confidence, character, and resiliency. These have been tough times for everyone, especially for young women.”

“With our Voice for Girls forum, our aim is to keep the conversation of wellness going and to spark action or change in the workplace—so as our girls grow up and enter the workplace, they have the resources needed to thrive and to be the amazing leaders who will make the world a better place,” Shepp continued.

During the panel discussion, Alianna Oliveira, a Dana Point resident and Girl Scout Ambassador with Troop 2164, was one of four Scouts addressing 250 business and community leaders in attendance. Oliveira spoke about her “Wellness Toolkit,” which she created after she lost three friends to suicide.

Oliveira created the Wellness Toolkit

as her Girl Scout Gold Award Project in honor of her three friends, initially intending for the toolkit to be used by middle schoolers.

The Capistrano Unified School District approved using Oliveira’s toolkit for kindergarten through eighth-grade students and will be used by the St. Edward the Confessor Parish School in Dana Point, Oliveira said.

Aiming to provide students with healthy strategies and tools, the Wellness Toolkit includes journaling, positive affirmations, breathing and stretching exercises, quotes, stress ball activities, mindfulness, relaxing music, a resource page and more.

“During these challenging times, I really think it’s important to feel safe in reaching out to help when you are struggling,” Oliveira said during the panel.

Mari Edler, the Ladera Valley Girl Scout Ambassador with Troop 2428, spoke on the panel with Oliveira about her art therapy workshop, “Mari’s Mindful Masterpieces.” Edler created the art therapy workshop to help children struggling through the pandemic.

Kayla Kashima, Girl Scout ambassador with Troop 881 in Anaheim, spoke on the panel about her understanding of the importance of exercise to boost mental wellness as a lifelong athlete. Kashima partnered with Irvine-based Pretend City Children’s Museum to create an exercise workshop to teach children how to have fun while exercising.

Girl Scout Alum from Laguna Hills Troop 775 and current UCLA student Lani Jacobson started the mentor

Coast Guard Cutter ‘Narwhal’ to Return to the Ocean Institute

To provide boating safety information and demonstrations, the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Narwhal will return to the Ocean Institute for public tours on Saturday, May 13.

The 87-foot warship will be docked at the Ocean Institute, with public tours running from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., when attendees will have the opportunity

to meet officers and the crew of the Narwhal. The Cutter Narwhal is based in Newport Beach and patrols coastal waters from the Mexican border to the Channel Islands.

Throughout the day, the Dana Point Coast Guard Auxiliary, a volunteer organization that supports the Coast Guard,

program “Hawk Mentors,” in which high school students educate elementary school students on topics related to mental health. During the Voice for Girls event, Jacobson spoke on the panel about her mentorship program.

Starting immediately, the Girl Scouts of Orange County has partnered with Irvine-based OMID (Multicultural Institute for Development) to offer free, short-term mental health care services for Girl Scouts. As the partnership is meant to aid with short-term mental health concerns, OMID will connect Girl

Scouts with other available resources if long-term help is needed.

Through the Girl Scouts of Orange County website, parents, volunteers and troop leaders can request an appointment for any registered Orange County Girl Scout. Girl Scouts will now have access to a maximum of eight 50-minute sessions, which can be either one-on-one or for an entire troop. The sessions may be conducted in person or via video conference.

The Girl Scouts of Orange County provides the services at no charge and is funded by a Girl Scout grant that the O.L. Halsell Foundation provided.

Starting in June, Girl Scout volunteers will also be able to sign up for a low-cost, two-part Mental Health First Aid Training program designed for adults who work with youth. The Mental Health First Aid Training led by Girl Scouts of Orange County staff facilitators teaches a five-step action plan for how to help young people in both crisis and non-crisis situations.

To reach the suicide and crisis lifeline and connect with a trained crisis counselor, call 988.

will hold boater education classes and provide boating and marine safety information related to paddle craft requirements, clean boating habits, fuel-oil spill prevention and the California boaters’ card.

“Coastie,” the talking ship, will also cruise around the Ocean Institute grounds and engage with families.

The Coast Guard Auxiliary will also provide free vessel exams, demonstrations on fire extinguishers, personal flotation devices, marine radios and a distress flare simulation.

“Providing free tours to the public

helps people gain an appreciation of how the Coast Guard works with Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection to patrol and protect our coast,” USCG AUX Unit Coordinator Garry Nelson said in a media release.

“We are grateful to the Ocean Institute for partnering with us to make this day possible,” Nelson continued.

The Ocean Institute is located at 24200 Dana Point Harbor Drive, Dana Point. More information about joining the Dana Point Flotilla of the Coast Guard Auxiliary can be found at the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary website.

RH Dana Exceptional Needs Facility to Celebrate Campus Merger

RH Dana Elementary School’s Exceptional Needs Facility (ENF) will celebrate its 48-year history this month, as the historically separate campus looks to merge with the rest of RH Dana Elementary School in the 2023-24 school year.

The May 25 event will be an opportunity for the community, students, alumni and their families to join together and remember RH Dana ENF’s history, with a slideshow sharing photos from 1975 to 2023.

Held on the RH Dana ENF preschool playground, the event will also feature food, beverages, live music and face painting, said Beth Davies, the former RH Dana ENF PTA president.

“Lots of tears and a lot of people,” said current ENF PTA President Lori Brown. “We even have a principal coming in from Arizona, people returning that we haven’t seen in a long time.”

Davies added that the event will be a time for “everyone to get together, socialize and remember all the things that we put on, a lot of events here.”

The exceptional needs campus will merge with RH Dana to provide a more inclusive experience for both campuses’ populations, RH Dana ENF Principal Johnathan Ellis explained.

“ENF is a very unique school; schools like this went away a long time ago for logical purposes,” Ellis said. “Our students should be allowed to be included with the general education population just like everybody else.”

Ellis explained that the ENF campus is one of the last in Orange County that he’s aware of that’s entirely special education.

“This is a good thing,” Ellis said. “It’s a long time coming for our K-5 students being merged with RH Dana Elementary School.”

Davies added that the merger makes inclusion a lot more feasible.

“Every child has the right to be a part of their community, school and have inclusive opportunities regardless of disability, and so the opportunities to be included are very minimal as our school stands now,” Ellis said.

Ellis noted that both campuses’ students will benefit from the merger.

“Our students definitely benefit from any time they have the opportunity to be around typical peers, to learn from what we’re trying to teach them, whether its academic, social interaction, just basic play or student skills, independence, all of those things,” Ellis said.

The general education students will benefit from understanding that “everybody has individual differences, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing. We’re just all working on acceptance and supporting each other,” Ellis said.

Brown, who taught at RH Dana before retiring last year, noted that the merger is “really good for the (general education) kids, too. It takes away a lot of the fear of the unknown, and we can answer questions … it’s a positive.”

After the merger, the former ENF campus will become a new early childhood center for pre-kindergarten and transitional kindergarten students.

“So that’s part of this merge as well, to help have a true diagnostic opportunity to appropriately place kids from three years on up,” Ellis said.

The Capistrano Unified School District’s Supporting Early Academic Language Skills (or SEALS) program will

Actors Guild to Bring Immersive Murder Mystery Show to Capistrano Beach

Prohibition has hit, but the exclusive Limbo Club still offers the best drinks in town—at least, that’s the premise for Capistrano Actors Guild’s upcoming immersive presentation of Speakeasy, Die Easy set in the 1930s.

Attendees of the immersive murder mystery show will need a secret password to attend the event held at the Fish Tank in Capistrano Beach from May 18-20. The password will be emailed to

attendees after purchasing their tickets.

Audience members will also be required to dress in 1930s attire or black tie to be admitted entry.

“Once you come in, we have casino-style games for you to play,” Capistrano Actors Guild President Christine Dickinson said. “Every ticket includes a $25 gameplay, and if you want to purchase more play, you can do that inside.”

Those interested in gambling can play

move over to the new early childhood center.

“That is our least restrictive special-ed program in the district for pre-K students, and we’re going to have those classes come over,” Ellis said. “We’re also going to have a diagnostic classroom come over; it’s called Ready, Set, Grow, and that’s open four days a week.”

“When you assess children starting at 3, and that little, everything, preschool in general itself, and the foundations of it are play-based for the most part,” Ellis continued. “When they need a classroom, an area to mimic what they would be doing during the normal day or what they do at home with their parents, they play with them and do their assessments at the same time.”

Most of the classrooms at the early childhood center will be for special education students, Ellis explained.

This is the third time in ENF’s 48-year history that a merger with RH Dana has been attempted. Brown and Davies both noted that they’re feeling prepared to finally have the two campuses come together.

Texas Hold’ em, Roulette or Pai Gow. The event will feature an open bar, food, entertainment and “murder,” as attendees work to uncover who the killer is.

“The theme of this murder mystery really is just what goes down at the speakeasy,” Dickinson said. “Someone dies; there could be multiple deaths actually, and the people that come for dinner have to figure out who did it and why.”

“And at the very end of the evening, we reveal it all to you and why they did it and everything,” Dickinson said. “But in the interim of having that play, you also get live entertainment, because everyone who’s at the speakeasy is also

“The staff is open because many of the staff, like Mrs. Brown, who recently retired, were still here the last time they merged, and I know our kindergarten teacher and a couple of teachers over at RH Dana are looking forward to getting back to doing some of those activities they used to do,” Ellis said.

“Just because we’re merging doesn’t mean that things that have worked in the past should go away,” Ellis continued. Brown added that joint events with the two campuses have always been positive.

Over the years, Brown has had previous students come up to her in the community and tell her about the impact that joint events with the ENF campus left on them.

The RH Dana campus has been working on merger activities over the past year, Ellis explained.

“They already did an Ability Awareness Week,” Ellis said. “Last month, the counselor went around and talked about disability awareness.”

On May 19, the school will host an Ability Awareness Day, “one more activity where parents, students and staff are involved to help open minds and get prepared for this merge,” Ellis said.

“But overall, it’s been very positive,” Ellis said. “We’ve met with the RH Dana Elementary PTA and our PTA, and they’re really excited. The RH Dana Elementary librarian has purchased books specifically to help students understand students with unique needs.”

Ellis emphasized that “everybody deserves the opportunity to feel welcome in their community, as well as their home school, and I think this is one more step towards the norm that should have taken place a long time ago.”

“This is really going to help (parents) connect with other people in the community and have their child be a part of everything else that typically goes on at a normal school,” Ellis said.

an entertainer.”

All the servers, bartenders and actors are also singers and will perform songs from the 1930s. When purchasing tickets, attendees can choose between a vegetarian or chicken option for dinner and can let the Capistrano Actors Guild know of any dietary restrictions.

As a truly immersive theater experience, Dickinson added that the audience can expect to be a part of the show.

“You can definitely expect there is going to be water flying; guests will definitely be asked to be a part of things,” Dickinson said. “Your food and drinks might be taken. It all depends on what the actors do. They have a lot of carte

Casa Romantica Turns to Community for Support Following Landslide

With programs and events on hold at the Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens following last month’s landslide that damaged the local landmark’s Ocean Terrace, the nonprofit is looking for the community’s support through fundraising efforts.

“As a consequence of the landslide and dynamics of the situation, Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens is faced with unprecedented financial uncertainty as to continuing planned programs, private events, and activities, placing the nonprofit in the position of asking for assistance,” Casa Romantica said in a media release.

Hoping to raise $250,000 by the end of June, Casa Romantica invited people to attend its Benefit Dinner and Concert: An Evening with Alicia Olatuja at the Franciscan Gardens in San Juan Capistrano on Thursday night, May 11.

Those who couldn’t attend Thursday evening’s dinner can also donate to the Casa directly or through its Spring Renewal Campaign. And those who have a venue or space that could be available for off-site activities and events are asked to contact the Casa at info@ casaromantica.org.

The Casa’s back patio and adjacent landscaping fell roughly 20 feet down the hillside above the Beach Trail and railroad tracks during the landslide that struck the historic property on April 27. Since then, it’s had to suspend certain

Dickinson added that there’s a twist that makes each of the three shows a little different.

A portion of the proceeds from Speakeasy, Die Easy benefits the Boys & Girls Club of Capistrano Valley, where the Capistrano Actors Guild hosts a two-week summer camp.

“So, we go in there and for two weeks, we teach them all the things that go into acting,” Dickinson said. “They help to build the sets, they paint the sets, they sew the costumes, they’re doing the lighting design.”

“They do everything with us, so it’s really an awesome experience to get future theater lovers and future technicians and costumers back into theater,” Dickinson continued.

The Capistrano Actors Guild formed two years ago in response to community

programs and postpone events as the property remains closed.

According to the nonprofit, it’s working to partially reopen the estate—the former home of town founder Ole Hanson—for public access at the end of May.

“The City of San Clemente has identified the parts of the estate that are safe from the damage caused by the landslide and present no danger to the staff or public,” Amy Behrens, Casa Romantica’s executive director, said in the media release.

“The safety and well-being of our guests, patrons, volunteers, and staff remain our top priority, and our team is working diligently to secure all approved areas. We will keep the community informed as progress is made toward our reopening date, and we appreciate your continued understanding and support during this challenging time.”

Casa Romantica’s 11th annual Mary Colby Tea cultural event initially scheduled for this past Saturday, May 6, has been pushed to June 24.

theaters closing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The theaters got hit really, really hard, and so I wanted to make sure that future generations could have a part in this,” Dickinson said. “And that’s the great thing, just like what we do with the kids.”

The guild is comprised entirely of actors, Dickinson added.

“Everybody on the board, from the president to the treasurer to the media marketing person, we’re all part of the Capistrano Actors Guild,” Dickinson said. “It’s not just one person that decides what we do and how we do it, but we all sit down, and every actor gets a voice.”

“In community theater, most people don’t know actors don’t get paid,” Dickinson continued. “So, they do this for the benefit of helping others.”

Dickinson added that part of the proceeds supports the actors as well.

Speakeasy, Die Easy will be held at the

“We want to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to the community for its outpouring of support during this challenging time,” Behrens said in the release. “Your encouragement, patience, and generosity have meant the world to us.”

“Now, more than ever, we need the community’s support to reach our goal of reopening Casa Romantica,” she added. “As a cultural center that serves as a

“It’s amazing, because although we are in kind of a rectangular box at the Fish Tank, because of the capability of the projections, it’s amazing,” Dickinson said. “You’re going to feel like you’re in a 1930s speakeasy.”

“From the moment you drive up, there are speakeasy signs, there’s Prohibition signs,” Dickinson continued. “We have bouncers, so you’re not going to be able to just get in. It is like your regular speakeasy … we try to do everything as authentic as possible.”

Dickinson added that she would like attendees to feel as if they are “a part of the art, (that) they were a part of something bigger.”

Dermfx Looks to Reopen After 2021 Building Fire

When a fire broke out the night before Dermfx’s grand opening in Dana Point on April 12, 2021, the medical spa had to find a creative solution to continue offering its services while rebuilding.

Since the fire, the Dermfx team has been working out of its Botox Express Bus in the building’s parking lot on Pacific Coast Highway and Golden Lantern. Dermfx used the Botox Express to attend events and street fairs before it became the temporary home of the Dana Point location.

“Seeing as the whole building burned down, it was a perfect opportunity to use (the bus) for injecting,” Dermfx Nurse Manager Kristina Plant said. “Now, we have patients that are actually coming in that are saying they’re going to miss the Botox Bus.”

The fire was devastating, Plant said.

“We’re not talking just a fire that ignited one section of the building; it was its entirety,” Plant said. “We had some of our machines in there, so all our equipment, too. It was a full-on rebuilding.”

Still unsure of what started the fire that night, the medical spa—or med spa, for short—has worked to rebuild over the past two years, and plans to celebrate its grand reopening on June 7.

“We’re so excited,” Plant said. “We can’t believe it’s already here. Part of me is going to miss the bus, because you kind of get used to that, but I’m just excited to be part of the Dana Point community.”

“It feels a bit surreal since we’ve been waiting for two years for this to actually happen,” Plant continued.

Dermfx opened its first location in Seal Beach in July 2002 and has since opened additional locations in Sunset Beach, Newport Beach and Redondo Beach.

The women-owned-and-operated business also fully funds an orphanage in Mexicali called The Forgotten Foundation, which has served the community for 15 years.

“We are so passionate about empowering women,” Plant said. “You’ll see that in our core values; that’s the root of who we are.”

Plant explained that Dermfx stands for “Dedicated team, Eager to provide a white glove experience, Results Driven, Make it happen, Flexible in providing affordable care and ‘Xperienced’ in aesthetics.”

“All the proceeds that you see in our jewelry and everything that we sell in the front all goes to funding this

orphanage,” Plant said. “There’s a lot of good that’s done with Dermfx; it’s not just empowering women to be and feel their best selves, it’s to actually help.”

Plant added that Dermfx is “such an incredible business to work for. You get that feeling when you walk in, because we are about empowering women, and it’s a women-run-and-owned business.”

No matter what service a patient is receiving at Dermfx, Plant said she hopes they walk away feeling empowered.

“I see patients come in, and they’re not feeling so good about life, or they’re going through something in life, and my goal is not to just give them that treatment; my goal is to have them walk out with a smile on their face,” Plant said.

“I want them to have an extra kick in their step when they’re walking and just feel like whatever they’re facing in their lives, they have that extra bit of confidence to go out there and get it,” Plant continued.

Dermfx’s Dana Point office is located at 34184 Pacific Coast Highway.

FILM FESTIVAL BRINGS COMMUNITY

TOGETHER TO CELEBRATE OCEAN CONSERVATION, SURF CULTURE

More than a thousand Dana Point Film Festival attendees gathered at Salt Creek Beach Park on Friday, May 5, to celebrate the 60th anniversary of The Endless Summer and enjoy a screening of the documentary while overlooking the beach where the original photograph for the movie’s iconic poster was staged.

The film screening was the pinnacle event of the four-day festival, which kicked off on Thursday, May 4, with a screening of the feature-length documentary Coextinction and a Director’s Opening Cocktail Party at Station Craft Brewing.

“Film festivals have a way to unite a community and bring attention to missions that truly count,” festival co-founder Lloyd Bryan Molander said in a media release. “We love and cherish our Pacific Ocean and our neighboring whales and dolphins.”

“The tight, fun-loving, ocean-minded coastal community really came together over the course of the first annual Dana Point Film Festival,” Molander continued. “We couldn’t have done this without them.”

The City of Dana Point partnered with DPFF to ensure that the 60th-anniversary screening for The Endless Summer was free and accessible for everyone, Mayor Mike Frost said.

Fifth District Board Supervisor Katrina Foley spoke on the importance of protecting the coasts for future generations during her opening remarks ahead of The Endless Summer screening on Friday night.

Foley said the Board of Supervisors voted during its April 25 meeting to approve an application to the Climate Pollution Reduction Grant Program. The program would allocate $1 million in federal funding to support climate planning, as Foley looks to create a Climate Action Plan for the county.

“As Supervisor, I remain committed to taking climate action, and this funding will grant us many more opportunities to do so,” Foley said in a media release. “The challenges presented by climate change threaten the health and security of our economy, our communities, and our children.”

“And they threaten our disadvantaged populations most of all,” Foley continued. “That said, we must utilize this grant to protect our community, and I look forward to working with the board and our community partners in order to do so.”

During her opening remarks, Foley emphasized that the grant funding is “the culmination of two years of work by my office to make sure that we are prepared for the future, and as we see our coast eroding, the railroad tracks falling into the ocean, the bluffs falling in land-

slides, the time to act is now.”

Photographer Robert Bagley, who took the original photograph for The Endless Summer’s poster, also offered opening remarks.

“Bruce was a very humble person, and he enjoyed sharing his passion for the sport of surfing,” Bagley said at the film screening, adding: “Bruce was probably the greatest storyteller ever. The Endless Summer was arguably the most-watched documentary … in the world and a tribute to what Bruce did.”

Some festivalgoers reminisced on the impact The Endless Summer had on them when it was first released.

“The Endless Summer was a movie that just inspired us to travel more,” Laguna Niguel resident Rick Winans said. “Mexico was always available when we were kids, and when The Endless Summer came out, we were just like, ‘Travel, surf.’”

“Isn’t it amazing how much surf discovery happened after this movie came out?” Winans asked.

Killer Dana Managing Partners Carrie and Mike Foster, who sold the surf shop’s merchandise at the screening, commented on Salt Creek’s surf history.

“As a youngster, you watch this film, and it was all of your idols. You wanted to surf like them,” Mike Foster said. “Then the fact that the history of it, that the picture was taken right here, Salt Creek has such a history in itself.”

“And Dana Point is the real Surf City, all the history and culture that’s right here,” Mike Foster continued. “So, we watched this movie over and over again as kids, wanting to be those guys.”

Carrie Foster added that the film festival had done a great job celebrating the city’s surfing heritage.

“It’s our surfing heritage. It’s bringing it to Dana Point, all these things; this film festival, it’s just fantastic because Dana Point has such a rich surfing heritage,” Carrie Foster said.

At the close of the screening, DPFF co-founder Todd Wallin added that he couldn’t believe how many people came out in support of the festival.

“It was a very great community vibe,” Wallin said. “We really appreciate all the community support and all the sponsors that came out to support the Dana Point Film Festival.”

Over the weekend, the festival featured a packed schedule full of screenings, panels and discussions. In total, DPFF screened 40 hours of documentary films at the Dana Hills High School Porthole Theater, the Dana Point Woman’s Club Community House and the DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel Doheny Beach.

Molander noted that as a Dana Hills High School alumnus, it was “so cool to see the school’s Porthole Theater packed on Saturday and Sunday evening with Dana Point Film Festivalgoers.”

“I was extremely fortunate to experience a childhood in Dana Point filled with surfing, sailing Hobie Cats and diving,” Molander said.

Young student filmmakers had an opportunity to tell their stories through the Dana Point Film Festival Student Film Competition, with winners to be announced soon, according to a recent media release.

On the festival’s final day, DPFF screened Birth of Endless Summer, a feature film that documents the birth of the surf manufacturing and publishing industry, with director Richard Yelland and subject Dick Metz in attendance.

Reflecting on the inaugural Dana Point Film Festival weekend, Frost said in an email, “The Film Festival did a fantastic job in highlighting Dana Point and all the ocean-related activities, which are so important to our community.”

“Lloyd Molander, the founder of the event, grew up here in Dana Point and captured the spirit and authenticity of the people in Dana Point, both past and present,” Frost added. DP

Committed or Interested?

Weekly, I find myself asking my clients if they are truly “committed” or merely “interested” in reaching their goals.

It might sound a bit harsh, but the reality of this question comes when people don’t allow their supposed “intense” desire for weight loss to guide their commitment to the actions needed to achieve that goal.

Hopefully, after all these years of following along, you, my insightful readers, know that my “hunger” is for everyone to embrace a “healthy eating pattern” and, in return, this will allow them to achieve a “healthy weight” for this season of their life.

I have spent a great deal of my recent continuing education hours learning about psychological addictions, and not just in the realm of alcohol and drugs, but with food. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), the first 12-step fellowship, was founded in 1935 by Bill Wilson and Dr. Robert Holbrook Smith.

While there are other 12-step programs, AA has led the way for other programs like Overeaters Anonymous. OA is a community of people who, through shared experience, strength, and hope, are recovering from unhealthy relationships with food and body image using the AA “Big Book” and principles as their guide.

It is important to clearly understand that with alcohol and drugs, sobriety is the only solution, which means completely refraining from the substance(s) or behavior(s) forever. We can’t eliminate food from our lives, but for those who

RESPONSE TO ‘MASS SHOOTINGS’ VICTOR MEZHINSKY, Dana Point

Regarding a letter in last week’s DP Times, “Mass shooting,” normally people who advocate banning “assault” weapons really want to ban all guns. Second Amendment, be damned.

And also they probably do not own any guns, because if they did, they would have known that in order to buy a gun legally, especially in California, one goes through a thorough background check, waiting period, etc.

Does the letter-writer know that the gun-trafficking is already a crime? But

have an unhealthy relationship with food, what then is the solution?

need to be healthy human beings, and being “at weight” doesn’t mean they are “healthy.”

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

In programs such as OA, individuals learn instead that they might need to “abstain” from “trigger” foods that threaten the individual’s ability to heal, allowing them to then work toward or maintain a healthy body weight through the 12 steps.

Let’s get back to the “committed or interested” theme I proposed at the start.

First, I need to tell you that in my practice, most people have some form of “disordered eating.” There are those who are inherently thin, who are really good at having food boundaries that allow them to control their weight.

But then we can swing the other direction to those who have been on every diet in the world, and while they can “lose weight” with the latest punitive and restrictive approach, and waste money on the “in vogue” pill, powder, or potion, they cannot keep the weight off once they go back to their old ways.

And don’t forget those with diagnosable eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia, according to the DSM Manual, the standard classification for mental disorders used by mental health professionals in the U.S.

No matter their weight, many of these individuals are malnourished, meaning they aren’t getting the nutrition they

what do the other countries do about guns? For example, state of Israel has many citizens owning guns where most crimes are committed by the terrorists and not citizen vs. another citizen, and Mexico, which has a lot of gun violence with strict gun laws.

Now, how about the real “innovative” solutions, such as severely punishing the criminals instead of victims (see New York, Chicago, LA, SF), getting rid of liberal soft-on-crime district attorneys, have more good guys with guns helping police to get bad guys before mass murderers commit crimes?

No, that would make too much common sense, would it not? Remember, a gun is a piece of machinery, just a tool. It does not shoot people by itself. People shoot people, right?

That is why I always say I have one of the hardest jobs in the world, but also the most satisfying.

My hope is to encourage and educate individuals on how to commit to a healthy eating pattern most of the time, with science- and evidence-based nutrition leading the way. For those who don’t struggle with “addictive food” tendencies, this nutrition shift will then allow them to add in treats and splurges on occasion and thrive in life.

On the other hand, too many of us need help with controlling these self-destructive eating behaviors. Check out the screening tools at both oa.org and nationaleatingdisorder.org to identify if you or someone you love can benefit from these two fantastic resources. DP

‘The Baseball 100’

Written in 2021, The Baseball 100, by Joe Posnanski, is a ranking of the best 100 baseball players of all time. I highly recommend this book, especially for baseball fans.

As with most rankings, Posnanski has a few that might surprise you and others with whom you’d disagree. Nonetheless, he does an outstanding job, and most of the greats you expect to be ranked here are.

He integrates the great Negro Leaguers, who in some cases were equal, if not better, than their Major League Baseball counterparts. In addition, Posnanski finds a spot for one who experts consider the greatest player in Japanese baseball history.

Even the 1800s are represented. As to be expected, pitchers are heavily outnumbered. One of the quirks of the book is that he ranks some of the players in a way that corresponds with a number that made them famous.

At first glance, the book can look intimidating, as it is more than 800 pages. However, readers are rewarded with biographical sketches of 100 players that can be read in any order and at one’s own pace.

As we move toward summer and well-deserved holidays, you may be booking flights to faraway places. As part of this process, you might notice your airline offering you the opportunity to buy carbon offsets for your travel.

This sounds like a great idea—pay a few bucks to fly without impacting the environment; why not? Unfortunately, these offerings are an example of “if it sounds too good to be true, it is.” Until we develop better biofuels or batteries for commercial aviation, or perhaps bring back the zeppelin, there is no way to fly the friendly skies without spewing CO2.

Other mo des of travel have less impact, so if you can, take your trip instead by car (preferably electric or hybrid) or train. If you must board a plane, then a nonstop journey is the kindest option, because takeoffs are the most polluting part of a flight.

Upgrading to the forward cabin takes

Providing more than just dry statistics, Posnanski gives us colorful insights into the players and the history of the game. In this era of easy, instant access to massive amounts of information, Posnanski still manages to unearth gems of new information for these greats who have had so much written about them.

old-timer who thinks no player after a certain date measures up to the players of a bygone era.

George Will leads off the book with an introduction. Posnanski follows with his own introduction, followed by a short glossary of terms. Then he gets down to the ranking, beginning with Ichiro Suzuki at No. 100—and, no, Ichiro is not the Japanese player I mentioned earlier.

Pitcher Mike Mussina follows at No. 99. Another pitcher, Nolan Ryan, completes the first half of the book, checking in at No. 50.

There is no table of contents, so you can’t cheat by using it to find out the ranking order. Of course, you can flip to the end of the book. With 100 players, Posnanski has given himself enough space to please even the hardened

On the other hand, there are more than enough modern players to keep younger fans interested. With a list this long, Posnanski obviously missed some Hall of Famers. However, he ranked a few players who are not in the Baseball Hall of Fame. When warranted, he uses statistics, including sabermetrics.

If you are a baseball fan, read this book. You can’t read all this without learning something while having a good time traveling down Memory Lane.

So, as the late, great Vin Scully would say: “Pull up a chair.” Only in this case, it’s for more than just Dodger baseball.

The book is available at the Dana Point Library. For more information, please call 949.496.5517. The library also hosts two book groups, including the Seaside Book Group, which meets on the fourth Monday of the month at 10:30 a.m. DP

anyway doesn’t count.

It is difficult to determine if the offsets available through your airline meet this standard, and an accurate offset amount likely costs more than the airline will charge you.

a bigger toll on both your wallet and the environment than flying coach, because more fuel is needed to lift the larger space around a first- or business-class seat (plus the weight of the glassware, silverware, and food being carried onboard for your convenience).

If you must go airborne to reach your destination, then buying carbon offsets for your flight is better than not buying them. Their purpose is to try and cancel out the amount of carbon your flight will generate by funding carbon-reducing projects somewhere else on the planet.

Note that this should be a carbon removal that wouldn’t have happened otherwise, so paying someone to save a tree they weren’t planning to cut down

If you’re serious about reducing your travel impact, you can purchase independently audited Quality Assurance Standard-certified carbon credits directly through sites such as clear.eco.

Using its calculator, you can even go beyond “carbon neutral” to “carbon negative” by removing more than your trip will generate, if you are so inclined.

The bottom line is, the only sure way to offset the carbon generated by airplane travel is to avoid emitting that pollution in the first place. While you’re planning, consider that many people choose to travel to California for

summer vacation, and we’re already here. DP

‘Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret’

There are some classic novels that seem as if they might never be adapted to film. One book that took more than 50 years to appear on the big screen is Judy Blume’s 1970s children’s literature classic Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret.

The main reason we’re just now getting a screen version is because Blume is, apparently, really picky with this particular book of hers. But the combination of writer-director Kelly Fremon Craig and producer James L. Brooks was enough for her to have a change of heart, and movie fans can now be thankful for that.

Are You There, God? not only lives up to expectations from fans, but it is also one of the better coming-of-age features recently.

Our protagonist is 11-year-old sixth-grader Margaret Simon (Abby Ryder Fortson), who has a typical childhood of elementary school and summer camp on the East Coast in 1970.

Her parents, non-practicing Christian Barbara (Rachel McAdams) and secularly Jewish Herb (Benny Safdie), decide to move from New York City to the New Jersey suburbs for Herb’s upgraded job offer.

Things move pretty fast as Margaret’s adolescence suddenly approaches

puberty. New friends, new feelings, new questions and new scenery all for her final year before junior high.

Though we get the usual themes with adolescent-set movies, what makes It’s Me, Margaret stand out from other tales in its genre is the interfaith setting. Margaret’s parents don’t raise her with either Christianity or Judaism, feeling she should have the freedom to choose her personal beliefs “when she’s older.”

Little did they expect, their young daughter actually becomes curious about religion on her own, setting out to see which culture she identifies with the most. These scenes where Margaret learns her different faith options are the strongest in the film, as are the narration sequences in which she speaks to God like an imaginary friend with awkward phrasing and pausing, since she hasn’t been properly explained how prayer works.

Fortson delivers a strong performance in her first starring role, and the supporting cast members are charming, as well. Craig seems to be carving out a nice little niche of her own teen girl dramedies between Are You There, God? and The Edge of Seventeen (2016).

Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret is a nice little time for kids, parents and grandparents of all generations. DP

5 Women Who Don’t Want to Be Lonely (Tonight)

In the past few days, I have received emails from senior women who have commented about the pain of loneliness after losing a mate. Here are five of them:

Dee wrote, “I understand the need to find love again. I don’t want to just be friends, although a relationship could start that way. At my mid-70s stage in life, I want warp speed.

“I work late, so I don’t have to be home as the sun sets (just too many memories for me). This is not the life I planned. I want a new beginning.

“I want to find that special man to walk alongside me, hold my hand and make me feel good again. And a hug, wow, that strong arm around me. Yes, I’m missing that.

“No one can tell me what is good for me. My life, as I knew it, just died. But I am still here and want to feel good again. Dating apps serve a purpose . I know the risks and pitfalls of online

“In my youth, I saw James Taylor in concert. His song “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight” made a big impression on me. Today, with my emotions a bit raw, I sang that song. Here’s to all the lonely dreamers filled with hope, who don’t want to be lonely tonight.”

Carolyn emailed, “I lost my close friend and companion on Good Friday, April 10, 2020. He contracted COVID-19 before authorities knew what was killing people so rapidly.

“Now, I’m seeing a man who treats me well. His wife also passed away. When we met, he said he didn’t want to remain lonely anymore. Neither do I.”

Pat shared, “After 32 years of marriage, I was widowed in 2000 at age 53. The thought of dating didn’t enter my mind for years. I finally found I needed more in my life and joined an online dating site. I met an honest man who lives 15 minutes from me.

“He is a widower. We started dating, and two years later, we are happy. I would never have met him if I didn’t date online. I never thought I would find someone at my age that I would care for so much and have such a terrific relationship with.

“My advice to single seniors is to keep trying, and you will find the right person.”

Deanne said, “For 33 years, I was a party of two. We were the dynamic duo, and the word lonely didn’t exist. I can’t get used to being without someone who was such a big part of me.

“Not having someone to talk to, laugh with, and share life with is

“I joined match.com. I met a few frogs, but I persisted. I didn’t want to live the rest of my life with an empty feeling. I found a good man. It takes patience and an open mind to find that person. There is no time frame in which to seek a new relationship. Ten years was a long time to wait to look. Sooner is better.”

Hats off to these five courageous senior women who are combating loneliness.

Boys Volleyball BounceBack Playoff Run Ends in Semifinals

After back-to-back winless seasons and a 28-match losing streak, any sort of playoff run was a resounding success for the Dana Hills boys volleyball team. While the Dolphins were playing their best volleyball of the season in the Division 4 playoffs, Dana Hills’ resurgent run ended on Saturday, May 6.

Dana Hills went on the road for the first time in the CIF-SS playoffs, and the Dolphins were swept by Hart of Newhall, 25-18, 26-24, 25-20, in the Division 4 semifinals. Dana Hills was looking to advance to its first CIF-SS Final since its 1986 CIFSS championship.

aIn the playoffs, Dana Hills (25-14) had swept El Rancho, defeated Diamond Ranch in five sets and swept Crossroads of Santa Monica, all in home matches. The Dolphins finished second in the Sea View League and won 25 matches for the first time since 2015. Dana Hills was in its first season under head coach Spencer Andrews.

Dana Hills has seven players who will play college volleyball, including one Division 1 scholarship athlete in Seamus Flynn, who will play at Long Island University.

Track and Field Qualifies 11

Entries to CIF-SS Finals

Dana Hills’ distance running teams once again took the spotlight, as the Dolphins qualified six girls entries and five boys entries to the CIF-SS Finals with Division 2 preliminaries performances last Saturday, May 6, at Ventura High School.

CIF-SS Finals will be run at Moorpark High School on Saturday, May 13.

On the girls side, five athletes qualified, with senior Allura Markow qualifying in two events—the 800-meter and 1,600-meter runs. Markow won the 1,600 preliminary heat with a time of 4:57.05 and finished sixth in the 800 with a time of 2:15.71.

Three Dana Hills runners qualified in the girls 1,600, with sophomore Annie Ivarsson (5:12.88) and junior Quinci

Lott (5:17.07) joining Markow. Cooper Murphy, a junior, qualified sixth in the 3,200-meters with a time of 11:22.06.

In the field events, sophomore Sydni Harden qualified third in the girls pole vault with a clearance of 10 feet, 9 inches. Sophomore Gabriella Salinas just missed qualification in the triple jump and long jump by 2.5 inches and 3.25 inches, respectively.

On the boys side, both sophomore Evan Noonan and junior Garrett Woodruff double qualified in the 1,600-meter and 3,200-meter runs. Noonan was second in the 1,600 (4:14.71) and first in the 3,200 (9:10.02). Woodruff was fifth in the 1,600 (4:17.89) and seventh in the 3,200 (9:22.49).

Also qualifying for the boys was senior Josh Chernekoff, who edged his way into the 800-meter field. Chernekoff grabbed the ninth and final qualifying spot by just 0.13 seconds.

The boys 4x100-meter relay team just missed qualification by 0.18 seconds.

The top nine performances at the CIF-SS Finals regardless of division will qualify for the CIF-SS Masters Meet on May 20 back at Moorpark High School.

Swimmers Miss State Qualification at CIF-SS Finals

Five Dana Hills entries posted state consideration times at the CIF-SS Division 2 Finals on Friday, May 5, at Riverside City College, but no Dolphins will be headed to the CIF State Championships this week.

Senior Brandon Saeedi posted consideration times in a fifth-place 200yard individual medley (1:52.51) and a seventh-place 100-yard backstroke (51.79 seconds), and senior Jack Hayes did the same in a fifth-place 100-yard freestyle (46.66 seconds) and consolation final-winning 200-yard freestyle (1:42.74).

Saeedi and Hayes both swam legs of the 200-yard freestyle relay with seniors Jonah Vander Veen and Jason Honey for a consolation final win and a state consideration time of 1:28.67. The same relay team finished second in the 400-yard freestyle relay consolation final.

On the girls side, Dana Hills’ top swimmer, senior Sadie Riester, had an unfortunate false start in the 100-yard freestyle to be disqualified. Junior Julia Gordon finished eighth in the 100-yard breaststroke.

The Dana Hills girls won their first-ever team league championship this season.

Davis Brown Qualifies for CIF-SS Individual Golf Finals

Dana Hills boys golf will have one player teeing off in the CIF-SS Finals, as Davis Brown carded a 1-under-par 73 to tie for 16th and advanced after a one-hole playoff at the CIF-SS Southern Individual Regional at Los Serranos Country Club in Chino on Tuesday, May 9.

Brown moves on to the CIF-SS Individual Championship on Thursday, May 18, at River Ridge Golf Course in Oxnard. Dana Hills will also compete in the CIFSS Division 1 Team Championships on Monday, May 15, at CrossCreek Golf Club in Temecula.

Dana Hills had four golfers in the regional on Tuesday. Matthew Davis just finished outside the qualification and playoff field with an even-par 74, Alex Pain shot a 3-over-par 76, and Nick Fry shot a 3-over-par 77.

12 Student-Athletes Honored in Signing Day Ceremony

Dana Hills High School honored all of its college-signed athletes from the school year in a combined National Signing Day ceremony on May 4.

There were 12 student-athletes signed on to four-year colleges and universities:

Ethan Brougham (Rice, Football), Seamus Flynn (Long Island University, Volleyball), Zoie Fuentes (Menlo College, Golf), Jack Hayes (Long Beach State, Water Polo), Allura Markow (Oregon, Cross Country), Taylor Nemeth (Austin College, Volleyball), Andrew Nesson (Holy Cross, Baseball), Sadie Riester (Loyola Marymount, Water Polo), Chase Rodgers (Lafayette College, Baseball), Brandon Saeedi (Denver, Swimming), Avery Sky (Long Beach State, Golf), Jonah Vander Veen (Air Force, Water Polo).

Baseball Falls in First Round at Aliso Niguel

After a hard charge in the final week to the South Coast League’s final playoff spot, the Dolphins’ stay in the CIF-SS Division 3 playoffs was short-lived.

Dana Hills came out swinging in the bottom of the first inning, but Aliso Niguel answered back to defeat the Dolphins, 6-4, in a Division 3 first-round game on Thursday, May 4, at Aliso Niguel High School.

Dana Hills (11-18) scored two runs in the first inning, but Aliso Niguel scored three runs in the bottom of the first and another three runs in the second inning to stay on top of the Dolphins.

Luke Flinn, a senior, hit a two-run home run, and junior Grady Faris hit a two-run double. Seniors Chase and Devin Rodgers and Kade Murray all scored runs for Dana Hills.

Shining on the Gold Coast

Local surf stars land in Australia for first stop of 2023 Challenger Series

Snapper Rocks is a long way from Lower Trestles, but for a handful of local surfers, the trip across the Pacific Ocean is a must.

This week, the first stop of the World Surf League’s Challenger Series, the Boost Mobile Gold Coast Pro, descends on the Gold Coast of Australia, where the planet’s brightest aspiring surfers, as well as some seasoned veterans, will vie for big results.

Per a slew of recent rule changes and restructurings at the WSL, the Challenger Series is now the pathway to qualifying for the Championship Tour, which will crown its world champions at the Rip Curl WSL Finals at Lower Trestles this September.

As sports analogies go, think of the Challenger Series as like playing AAA minor league baseball. It’s the last stop before graduating to the majors. And this year, with the first midseason cut in place on the Championship Tour, some top-tier talent will also be in the mix.

When it comes to top-tier talent, nobody tops the GOAT, Kelly Slater. After failing to make the midseason cut, and subsequently getting wildcards into the remainder of the 2023 Championship Tour events, Slater’s insatiable competitive appetite can’t be quenched, even into his 50s.

With his name in the heat draw (heat 12 in the Round of 64), Slater appears intent on pulling on the jersey at a location with which he’s intimately familiar. Hav-

GROM OF THE WEEK

ing won Championship Tour events at Snapper Rocks in the past, could we see him make some magic one more time? With Slater, anything’s possible.

Also falling off the Championship Tour in the middle of the season was hometown hero Kolohe Andino. A former Olympian, Andino has spent more than a decade on tour. After coming back from a foot/ankle injury, he won the Cold Water Classic in Santa Cruz earlier this year but never quite fell into a good groove on the Championship Tour.

Looking to hit reset and reenergize Andino’s surfing, Snapper fits his surfing perfectly. A spot he’s spent ample time at over the years, he should be feeling plenty comfortable in the warm water and long, hollow rights.

Andino will surf in heat 15 of the Round of 64, which is stacked. Not only is Aussie heavyweight Morgan Cibilic in the heat, but so is goofy-footed powerhouse Cole Houshmand. As a generational clash of San Clemente, hopefully the pair go 1-2 in the heat and advance into the next round (which may have happened by the time you read this).

The waiting period for the event kicked off May 6, but as of press time, results were not available.

San Clemente has a lot to cheer for when it comes to the next generation. Besides up-and-comer Houshmand, Kade Matson and Crosby Colapinto are also in the event.

Matson’s back from back surgery and

ADDISON MCPHILLIPS

A standout competitor and role model for the San Clemente High Triton surf team, Addison McPhillips has been enjoying a lot of competitive success over the past year. As the grom life goes, McPhillips just wrapped up her NSSA career on a beautiful high note. With the NSSA Southwest season finale coming to C Street in Ventura, McPhillips made the drive north to compete in her last regular-season event.

“No stranger to right pointbreaks, she was in her element in the fun, lined up rights of the Pipe,” the NSSA reported. “With a polished approach and linking solid maneuvers

together, Addie finished off the regular season with her best performance and first win of the year!”

A huge congrats to McPhillips on finishing her NSSA days with a bang. No doubt, big things are on the horizon, as the women’s movement is roaring in San Clemente, and she’s right there with the most talented girls in town.

With McPhillips already having some WSL experience under her belt, we can’t wait to

surfing better than ever, while Colapinto’s taking a lot of inspiration from what his brother, Griffin, is accomplishing on the Championship Tour this year. Ranked fourth in the world, Griffin’s setting the pace for everyone in our local waters. On the women’s side, it’s amazing to see so many former Groms of Week rising to the occasion in Australia.

Bella Kenworthy and Kirra Pinkerton were both seeded into the opening round, but unfortunately were unable to advance. Meanwhile, Sawyer Lindblad is hoping to capitalize on a strong run through the North American Qualifying Series to catapult onto the Championship Tour.

The waiting period for the Boost

Mobile Gold Coast Pro runs through May 13. Hopefully, by the time weekend hits, there is still plenty of local talent in the heat draw and the waves at Snapper are pumping.

At one of the best pointbreaks in the world, the stakes are huge, and the surfing’s sure to go next-level. DP

SURF FORECAST

Water Temperature: 60-62 Degrees

Water Visibility: 4-6’

Outlook: SSW swell slowly tapers off on Friday, as NW swell drops out. Surf is shoulder to head high, (4-5’), at well exposed spots, while best breaks are head high to a few feet overhead, (5-7’). Slightly smaller combination of SSW swell and NW swell rolls in over the weekend, with waist to shoulder high waves, (3-4’),  for good spots, as standouts are 4-6’. Friday and Saturday have light southerly winds in the morning, veering to light+ westerlies for the afternoons. Moderate southerly winds prevail on Sunday.
