MEDICARE ANNUAL ENROLLMENT PERIOD
Calling all existing Medicare Beneficiaries, are you looking to save some money on either your monthly premiums, your co-pays, or your prescription drug co-pays? Then the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) is the time for you to make a change to your current plan.
All changes made during this time (10/15 – 12/7) go into effect 1/1/23. The biggest way to save money is to see if a Medicare Advantage plan would work for you.
If it does meet your needs, then you cancel your Medicare Supplement and Medicare Drug plan for 2023 because the Medicare Advantage plan gives you that type of coverage and financial protection from medical bills. You’re no longer paying a premium for Medicare Supplement or a Medicare RX plan if you decide to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan.
These plans in Orange County typically have no or low premiums and are both HMO’s and PPO’s. The Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (also known as AEP) ends December 7th, if you’d like to schedule a no cost Medicare options review contact me soon, my calendar is filling up!

AT THE MOVIES ‘Armageddon Time’ Almost Reaches the Top
BY MEGAN BIANCO, DANA POINT TIMES P resently, James Gray’s new family drama, Armageddon Time, is out two weeks before Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans. Both are about a Jewish child growing up in mid-20th century America, and they are also loosely based on the directors’ own childhoods.

It figures Gray’s picture is one of this year’s “twin films.” While Gray’s artistic success is modest compared to the powerhouse of Spielberg’s legacy, I don’t think anyone would confuse either of these films aesthetically, fortunately for Gray and his team.
In 1980 Queens, New York, 12-yearold Paul Graff (Banks Repeta) is forced to leave his public school for his older brother Ted’s (Ryan Sell) private school after Paul is caught smoking a joint in the bathroom with Johnny (Jaylin Webb), one of the few Black students on campus.
Paul’s parents, Esther (Anne Hathaway) and Irving (Jeremy Strong), think Paul has all the opportunities and potential for a proper education that can lead to a business career, while Paul’s grandfather, Aaron (Anthony Hopkins), thinks he should follow his passion for art.
The first misstep for Armageddon Time is the title sounding way too much like a sci-fi adventure. The namesake makes more sense when we view the film and see early on Paul’s family watching a TV interview with then-President Ronald Reagan, who uses the word “Armageddon” during a comment. But on its own, the title is completely misleading to someone going into the feature blind.
But the real issue here is that by releasing Armageddon Time so near to The Fabelmans, it’s a little too obvious how, in the shadows, Gray’s career is compared to his peers and idols. I don’t think his movies are bad on any level, yet nothing about his style or stories stands out cinematically or singularly.
I doubt The Fabelmans will have some of the darker aspects of Armageddon Time, and I’m guessing the former will have a longer-lasting impact on me, since Spielberg is already one of my favorite filmmakers and has a foolproof track record.
I would still recommend Armageddon Time for the cast, and if you’re in the mood for a period drama, as there are ultimately talented people involved who usually deliver. But as a whole, I don’t think Armageddon Time will leave a big impression on me, unfortunately. DP

A Widower Decides to Start Dating and Finds Intimacy
In response to my previous column—“Senior Sex, With or Without Commitment?”—a gentleman emailed, “I’m in my early 60s and widowed. I am starting my own journey after losing my wife to cancer earlier this year.
“Together for 44 years, committed to each other since we were teenagers and married soon after college, we were inseparable from the tender age of 17. Our relationship started so young, we were the only ones each of us had been intimate with, and we loved and valued that bond.
“She fought hard for five years and during that long goodbye, she made me promise that I would find love and happiness again.
“As two people in love and with an active sex drive, it was difficult for us when my wife’s illness prevented any kind of physical intimacy. But that was only one part of our relationship, and the other parts grew stronger to compensate. My love and commitment toward her were reason enough for me to put my sexual urges on the back burner as I focused on caring for her.
“After her passing, I knew there would be a time when I would resume being sexually active, but had no idea when I would feel ready and when I would find a woman I was attracted to.
“Fast forward to today, I am now dating a wonderful woman. As you would expect from two healthy adults who are attracted to each other, we have become physically intimate. The attraction is not just physical, but also emotional, and we are dating exclusively.
“That required a certain amount of trust from us both since neither one of us is interested in casual sex and had only known each other for a short time. We are both committed right now to the relationship and are hopeful it will work in the long term. At this point, I can’t say that I love her with all my heart, but we are close, and from what I have seen, it is
very promising. “At first, this intimacy was difficult for me, as I was feeling guilty and unfaithful even though I understood I was no longer married. I had always expected I would only have one sexual partner in my life and appreciated that idea, which is rare in the world. I will always love my late wife, but I have also come to realize that this does not prevent me from loving someone new. “For me, it was physical attraction, and emotional closeness and trust, and a desire to become intimate with a woman again that allowed me to take the leap.” ON LIFE AND LOVE Tom’s response: So, here I am, writing
BY TOM BLAKE the second column in a row on senior sex and commitment, a topic that makes me a tad uncomfortable. In the 11 years of writing for this newspaper, I’ve only mentioned senior sex a handful of times. However, this widower’s words were so mature, sensitive, and sincere—on a topic many widowed and divorced people eventually ponder—that I felt it important to once again step outside my comfort zone and fulfill my journalistic duty of reporting on a subject so significant to senior singles. Tom Blake is a retired Dana Point business owner and resident who has authored books on middle-aged dating. See his website at findingloveafter50.com. To comment: tompblake@gmail.com. DP

Fourth and Out
Fourth-down turnovers doom Dana Hills football in first home playoff game in 9 years
BY ZACH CAVANAGH, DANA POINT TIMES
Holding onto a slim lead into the fourth quarter in their first home playoff game since 2013 in a game in which punting was optional, the Dana Hills football team stuck to its guns, and visiting Baldwin Park met the challenge.
Dana Hills went for it on fourth down five times in the game, but its final two attempts proved most costly, as Baldwin Park snagged an interception, recovered a fumble, and scored quickly after both turnovers to defeat the Dolphins, 28-16, in a CIF-SS Division 10 first-round game on Friday, Nov. 4, at Dana Hills High School.
“I think that you could do this thing where you rewind it all, and when you watch the film, you try to learn from it,” Dana Hills coach Tony Henney said of the fourth-down calls. “The bottom line is that we crossed the 50 about five times without any points tonight. There’s two things there: we’ve got to be better, and you’ve got to give them credit for making stops.”
Dana Hills (6-4) was the No. 2 seed in Division 10 after earning an at-large selection, but the Dolphins were still left looking for their first playoff win since 2009. Dana Hills qualified for the playoffs for the second straight season.
The Dolphins had to answer plenty of questions entering the season after they had lost so many key pieces of a record-setting offense from a year ago. Dana Hills did so by changing its identity into a physical running team behind an improved offensive line and with county-leading rusher Christian Guarascio.
“I felt like at the end of this game, all I wanted to do was hug everybody,” the senior running back Guarascio said. “I couldn’t explain how proud I am of everybody, coming out here and finishing how they did. At the end of the day, we came together as a brotherhood. From Week 1 to Week 11, we changed, and we really came together as a program.”

fourth straight winning season this year, which completes a full turnaround from the five seasons prior to that, a stretch when the Dolphins never won more than three games, including two 1-9 campaigns and a winless season. Dana Hills has now competed for league titles in consecutive seasons and made the playoffs in both years under Henney.
Guarascio said that the Dana Hills program had been motivated in the offseason to prove that they can play ball, that they weren’t going to slide back to the “same old Dana Hills.” Guarascio said the Dolphins program is forever different after the work of these past two senior classes.
“I felt like, before when I came here, it wasn’t like that,” Guarascio said of the offseason effort and focus. “It was more lackadaisical, and now there’s purpose to this program. I feel like the culture has really shifted.”
Last Friday, Dana Hills had to battle more than just Baldwin Park, as plenty of key Dolphins were battling illness all week, including Guarascio. The senior back said he’d been fighting the flu since that Tuesday, had an IV on Thursday and was even at the doctor’s office on Friday morning.
Even after taking an early stinger on a defensive play, Guarascio still put out an intense effort on both sides of the ball. Guarascio carried the offensive load with 32 carries for 167 yards rushing and caught four passes for 56 yards and a touchdown.
Dana Hills particularly turned to Guarascio in the second half after Baldwin Park (9-2) had grabbed the lead in the third quarter. The Dolphins led, 10-3, after a deliberate first half in which Dana Hills converted two of three fourthdown attempts and stopped Baldwin Park on two of its three fourth-down attempts.
Baldwin Park turned up its offensive tempo and took its first lead of the game, 14-10, on a 32-yard touchdown pass. Dana Hills responded with its own version of an up-tempo offense and handed the ball to Guarascio over and over. However, the Dolphins capped the drive in the air on a 15-yard touchdown pass from senior Connor Vernon to junior Chase Berry.
The extra point was blocked, which left Dana Hills ahead by only two points, 16-14, with two minutes left in the third quarter.
Dana Hills looked poised to extend its lead and march toward that elusive playoff win after an interception by Dominic Barto at the end of the third quarter. However, on the ensuing drive, Baldwin Park made its first of three game-defining plays.
On fourth down at the Braves’ 30-yard line, Baldwin Park snagged a Dana Hills pass and returned the ball more than 60 yards. Two plays later, Baldwin Park ran in the 11-yard touchdown to go back ahead, 21-16.
On Dana Hills’ next drive, the Dolphins were forced into another fourth down at the Baldwin Park 46-yard line. Guarascio was handed the ball and plowed forward, and while it looked as if he got to the first-down mark, the Braves swatted the ball loose and recovered.
Baldwin Park put the stake in Dana Hills at the end of the ensuing possession. On a third-and-15, Dana Hills was looking to sell out against the run, and Baldwin Park caught them with a 32yard touchdown pass for the 28-16 lead with just over two minutes remaining.
The Dolphins got their pass offense going on the next drive, looking to somehow desperately make a comeback, but Baldwin Park pulled in its third interception of the night to close out the game. DP

A Different Kind of Film Festival
Shining light on stories of adventure and adversity, the Coast Film Festival is all about bringing people together
BY JAKE HOWARD, DANA POINT TIMES T his week, the Coast Film and Music Festival is coming to Laguna Beach. In fact, it kicked off on Wednesday, Nov. 9, with a special opening screening celebrating the 50th anniversary of the seminal surf film Five Summer Stories.
But don’t stress if you missed the opening party (brought to you by your friends at Hobie), there is some amazing stuff on tap for the weekend.
First launched by Enich Harris and Ben Warner in 2019, the Coast Film and Music Festival seeks to highlight new and interesting films featuring stories about the ocean and mountains. This year’s lineup looks to be the best one, to date.
“We couldn’t be more excited,” says Harris. “There are so many different films and activities lined up, there really is something for everyone. Bringing communities together is one of the founding principles of the film festival, and the level of excitement we’re seeing is really inspiring.”
Harris is a classic, hard-core Orange County surfer who spent a number of

years making magic for the Billabong marketing department before setting out to make the documentary film Kissed By God, which details the rise and tragic fall of three-time world champion Andy Irons.
Meanwhile, Warner comes from a mountain and media background, having been at the helm of Bike and Powder magazines in the early 2000s before moving on to launch Laguna Beach Magazine and the Laguna Beach Independent newspaper.
“Laguna is the perfect place for the Coast Film and Music Festival,” Warner explains. “It has such a colorful history as an art colony, as well as a movement that’s protected the land and waters surrounding the city. Plus, we are 60 miles away from the Hollywood film scene, which makes us hopeful that we will be able to connect some of these up-and-comer creators to the big business in Hollywood.”
After the festival’s kickoff on Wednesday with Five Summer Stories, which was scheduled to feature the film’s creator, Greg MacGillivray, along with 1977 world champion Shaun Tomson, doing a little talk story, the action heats up into the weekend.
Thursday, Nov. 10, is Snow Night. A couple of can’t-miss happenings include the Teton Gravity Magic Hour, as well as the premiere of the new snowboard film Ark, featuring snow luminaries Danny Davis and Mark McMorries.
The mountain fun continues Friday, Nov. 11, as the focus turns to mountain biking and climbing. The premiere of Esperanto, a mountain bike film with Todd Jones, Cam Zink, and friends, promises to be the main attraction.
Saturday, Nov. 12, takes us back to the

GROM OF THE WEEK MARLO LEIGH HARRIS
BY JAKE HOWARD, DANA POINT TIMES
Hard work pays off; just look at what Marlo Leigh Harris has been able to accomplish lately. A couple weeks ago, she landed support from Rip Curl Dana Point, and now with a new sticker on the nose of her board and the confidence that a little support provides, Harris is taking her competitive game to the next level.

Harris surfed well beyond her years, winning the Girls Under-16 division, as well as placing third in the Girls Under-14 division.
“My first weekend with Rip Curl charged me into two finals,” said a smiling Harris.
Building momentum all season long, before her trip to Huntington Beach, Harris also won the Girls Under-16 division in the NSSA contest at her local break of Salt Creek.
Harris has also been participating in the USA Surfing junior national training program, as well as going to school at Shorecliffs Middle School. Looking to mix things up a little, Harris most recently joined the Crown Valley Dive Team in Laguna Niguel.
Next year, she’s excited to attend Dana Hills High and try out for its surf, dive and cross-country teams. Watch this space; we’re sure to see more from Harris in the very near future.
If you have a candidate for Grom of the Week, we want to know. Send an email to jakehoward1@gmail.com. DP beach. Three solid films are on the bill, including the Yin & Yang of Gerry Lopez; a look at Australian big-wave slab hunting called Facing Monsters; and Gravity by world champ surfer John John Florence, who will be on hand to dazzle and delight the audience.
Saturday evening will also see the return of the “Follow The Light” surf photography awards in honor of the late, great Larry “Flame” Moore. A platform for aspiring photographers to have their work seen and be discovered, the photography contest celebrates the legacy of Moore, who as photo editor of Surfing magazine turned Salt Creek into his own personal studio, helping make the careers of plenty area pro surfers along the way.
The Coast Film and Music Festival culminates on Sunday, Nov. 13, with another special screening of Five Summer Stories. MacGillivray will be presenting a special editor’s cut; the band Honk, which scored the original soundtrack, will be on hand to play live during the film; and exclusive insights and stories into how the whole production came together will also be shared.
“It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience,” Harris says. “It’s really going to be special.”
There will also be live music, daytime movie screenings, an art space, and more. Be sure to check the schedule for the complete list of events and showtimes.
A family-friendly event, kids under 12 get in for free.
