Fluoridated drinking water coming to Santa Fe district — temporarily Area to receive water from Metropolitan district for six weeks BY JOE TASH Contributor A planned upgrade to a water filtration plant operated by the Santa Fe Irrigation District means that for the first time, the district’s 20,000 residents will receive fluoridated drinking water over a six-week period beginning Jan. 1. During the treatment plant’s closure, the district will buy treated water from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, which adds fluoride to its drinking water supply, said Santa Fe general manager Michael Bardin. “We need to let all our customers know — you’re going to get fluoridated water for this period of time,” said Bardin. Although the district has briefly

Redistricting maps to be available for public review BY JOE TASH Contributor Directors of the Santa Fe Irrigation District have narrowed a list of possible redistricting maps to two top candidates, which will be available for public review and comment at two upcoming board meetings. The district, which provides water to some 20,000 residents in Rancho Santa Fe, Fairbanks Ranch and Solana Beach, is required to rebalance the populations of its five divisions following the U.S. Census, which was conducted in 2010. The district is governed by an elected, fivemember board, and each member is elected from one of the five districts.

Solanum plant a hot item in Solana Beach Editor’s note: This feature is part of an ongoing series about the hot picks and interesting vendors that serve the community at our local farmers markets.

If you’ve been at the Solana Beach Farmers Market on a recent Sunday, you’ve probably noticed a number of people strolling through or leaving with an interesting bouquet that’s made not of flowers but of tiny colorful pumpkins. It’s called a pumpkin bush, said Gilbert Quintos, who grows the plant on his

PAGE 3

8-acre farm in Fallbrook and has been selling at the Solana Beach market since 1987. Actually, the scientific name is “Solanum P” — fitting for Solana Beach — and those blossoms are tiny squash, not pumpkins. Quintos said he intentionally plants rows and rows of the bush in February so its eight-month harvest will conclude just in time for the beginning of fall, and it’s one of the most popular items he sells yearround. People love the plant because it’s a good substitute for fresh flowers and it

lasts for months, all the way through the fall season, and then dries beautifully, Quintos said. But if you happen to purchase a decorative pumpkin bush, don’t put it in water or the squash will drop off. Although the pumpkin bush may look pretty, Quintos said, going farm to market is a sometimes unpretty process because the bushy is very thorny and farmers go to great pains in dethorning each and every stem. Who’s your favorite local vendor? Email editor@delmartimes.net.

Developer Ginger Hitzke and the Solana Beach City Council presented plans on Oct. 18 for a redesigned affordable housing development to be built on the 500 block of South Sierra Avenue. “The Pearl,” which comprises 10 housing units and 54 parking spaces, came under fire when plans were presented in August. Last Tuesday, three conceptual designs were presented. Design A included balconies with eaves, sandy colors and wood siding. Design B had warm ochre colors, wood shingles and gables roofs. Design C included stone on the outside, pergolas over the windows, balconies with eaves and gable roofs. All designs featured a “lifeguard-tower turquoise” color. The site is currently home to a parking lot. Story poles have been put up for the community to gauge the building’s height. The group outlined that “affordable” does not necessarily equal low income. It means housing that doesn’t cost more than 30 percent of one’s income. Potential tenants will undergo a background check and income verification, as well as sign a crime-free addendum. Commercial or office space is being considered for the ground level. — Claire Harlin

Human resources executive plays a crucial role in contributing to turnaround at Scripps Health BY ARTHUR LIGHTBOURN Contributor Vic Buzachero, (pronounced “Buzz-a-kero�) is Scripps Health’s corporate senior vice president of innovation, human resources and performance management, a hefty title, to be sure, but one that accurately describes the scope of his contribution to the remarkable turnaround of Scripps Health over the past 10 years. Earlier this month, in recognition of his achievements, Buzachero was named to HR [Human Resource] Executive Magazine’s Honor Roll for 2011 and in an accompanying article was headlined as “The Turnaround Kid.� He especially appreciated the ‘kid’ part, Buzachero said, “now that I’m 60.� Also recently, Scripps Health, the San Diego-based nonprofit community health system of five acutecare hospitals and 23 outpatient clinics staffed by 13,200 employees and 2,500 affiliated physicians, was

ranked by AARP as the No. 1 company in the U.S. for workers over age 50. “We consider Scripps to be a career destination company,� Buzachero said, “therefore we design our human resources programs to appeal to all people, no matter what stage of life they may be in. Approximately 36 percent of our workforce is age 50 or older, and we work to retain them because the knowledge they pass down ultimately results in better outcomes for our patients.� Recently, for the fourth year in a row, Fortune Magazine named Scripps Health as one of the 100 best companies in the nation to work for, and, for the seventh consecutive year, Working Mother magazine recognized it as a top employer of working moms and this year ranked it as #11 of the top 100 companies for its learning opportunities, flexible work schedules, on-site daycare and adoption benefits program. We interviewed Buzach-

ero in his office at Scripps Health’s headquarters in La Jolla. He’s a tall, well-built man with slightly graying hair, who, to keep in shape for the winter snow-ski season, works out “constantly� — running, training with weights, and climbing the stairs to his second floor office several times a day rather than ride the elevator. Talking across neatlystacked piles of papers on his desk, Buzachero readily concedes “I’m not a cleandesk guy,� but he is an avid jotter of ideas in a little black book that invariably accompanies him wherever he goes; and on occasion — in a bow to technology — substitutes his iPad to record the continual flow of ideas and “to do’s.� “Sometimes even the best idea is not a good idea until the timing is right,� he says. Buzachero was recruited by Scripps Health in September 2001 at a time of crisis when the then 77-year-old Scripps was on life support

and hoping to recover and restore itself under its new president and CEO Chris Van Gorder as “a workplace of choice.� Scripps had ousted its former CEO, doctors had fled, there was a labor shortage, the company was facing significant operating losses, and the human resources department was foundering. The company’s new leadership convinced Buzachero of their belief that Scripps’ employees were crucial to revitalizing the company’s brand and culture — it just needed someone to create a human resource department that would carry out that philosophy. “Given that foundation,� Buzachero recalled, “I felt Scripps was the right place to be able to accomplish a turnaround.� Before joining Scripps, Buzachero had developed an HR reputation in Alabama, Texas, Arizona and Washington for leadership development, service excellence, reductions in employee turnover and improved employee satisfaction — exactly what Scripps was looking for. Buzachero was born, in SEE SCRIPPS, PAGE 15

Share your Thanksgiving with UCSD international students

This year, UC San Diego’s International Center is hosting a new program which gives international students the opportunity to celebrate the Thanksgiving Day holiday with an American host family in the San Diego area. Volunteering host families invite two international UCSD students into their homes for a Thanksgiving meal and share how the holiday is celebrated in their family. “Our international students are excited to spend Thanksgiving with San Diego families and learn more about this traditional American holiday,” said Shelly Taskin, program coordinator at International Center. “This program is a wonderful opportunity for both international students and host family members to learn more about each others’ cultures and foster new friendships,” added Taskin. If you are interested in participating in the program as a host family, please email Shelly at iprograms@ucsd.edu by Nov. 4.

Canyon Crest Academy places 3rd in national math contest Canyon Crest Academy has some of the best high school mathematicians in the country, as demonstrated by its 3rd-place finish in the 2011 Fall Startup Event, a national mathematics contest administered by National Assessment & Testing (www.natassessment.com). Coach Brian Shay prepared students for the first major competition of the academic year, in which students worked furiously for 30 minutes, racing to answer 100 problems in a variety of mathematical topics. With so many questions and so little time, competitors must not only have strong mathematical skills, but also be able to quickly decide which problems to solve and which to skip. After results from students across the nation were processed, several Canyon Crest Academy students received individual awards, helping their team to place 3rd in the nation. In the 10th-grade division, Brandon Zeng and Paolo Gentili tied for 4th-place; Catherine Wu placed 13th; and Eric Chen was 14th. Thomas Swayze placed 9th in the 11thgrade division; and Henry Maltby and Raymond Wu placed 2nd and 24th respectively in the 12th-grade division. Canyon Crest Academy will be participating in all five of National Assessment & Testing’s contests this year, including the 2011 Team Scramble on Nov. 3 and the 2011 Ciphering Time Trials on Dec. 8. National Assessment & Testing administers high-quality mathematics competitions that high schools can participate in through the mail. Their contests cover a variety of formats, including individual and team tests, as well as a variety of difficulties, from 100 easy problems in 30 minutes to 15 complex problems in one week.

METROPOLITAN continued from page 1 District staff prepared five potential redistricting maps, and the board narrowed the list to two maps at its meeting on Thursday, Oct. 20. Discussion of the maps will be placed on two upcoming board agendas to allow the public to comment on them. The board will vote on a final map after the second meeting. District general manager Michael Bardin said most of the district’s population growth occurred in Division 2, which includes the east-

FLUORIDATED used treated water from Metropolitan in the past, this will be the first time that drinking water in the district’s service area — which includes Rancho Santa Fe, Fairbanks Ranch and Solana Beach — will be fluoridated for an extended period of

ern portion of Solana Beach. Divisions 4 and 5, which cover the coastal area, will have minor changes, while Divisions 1 and 3, which include the Rancho Santa Fe Covenant and Fairbanks Ranch, will remain virtually unchanged. The district’s board of directors includes: Ken Dunford, Division 1; Robert “Bud� Irvin, Division 2; John Ingalls, Division 3; Michael Hogan, Division 4; and Andy Menshek, Division 5. The terms of Irvin and Dunford expire in 2012, while the terms of the other three directors expire in 2014.

THINKERS continued from page 3 the Worldviews – Science vs. Spirituality.� In the book, each author gives his perspective on such questions as “how did the universe emerge,� “what is the connection between mind and brain,� and “is God an illusion?� Bennet said that before he read the book, he had expected the two authors to reach common ground on a number of issues. But after his reading, he came to the opposite conclusion. “It really felt like a war. In fact, there is no peace at the end of the book,� Bennet said. Chopra, a physician who founded the Chopra Center

for Well-Being in La Jolla in the 1990s, and later moved the center to Carlsbad, credits science with many advancements that have improved the quality of life for humans. Where it falls short, he said, is its lack of purpose or morality, which has led to such evils as biological warfare and global warming. “These are the gifts of science, that does not have any values,� Chopra said. Mlodinow countered that “science is knowledge,� and that, “If people want to use the truth that science discovers for evil, that will always be a possibility.� According to the foreward of “War of the Worldviews,� the two writers met at a conference at the California Institute of Technology, on the topic of “the future of God.� After that, the two be-

gan speaking together at a number of public events, and decided to “have it out� in the book, which was published by Harmony Books earlier this month. Each writer said he believes it takes courage to espouse his worldview; Chopra said he had been criticized over the years for his theories on spirituality and healing, and Mlodinow for delivering “bad news� on such topics as death and free will. Mlodinow said he believes all living things are governed by immutable laws of nature and physics, rather than free will, and that he does not believe in a soul or the afterlife. “Nobody really wants to hear that,� he said. “If we don’t have free will, let’s forget about global warming and all be doomed

to extinction,� retorted Chopra. While he doesn’t necessarily expect to convert readers to his way of thinking, Mlodinow said he hopes the book will help explain the scientific way of looking at the world. Science can explain such things as sunsets and tides, but for those who seek understanding of love, compassion or evil, “that’s where you should look to spiritual endeavors for your issues.� Chopra said science devoid of spirituality won’t solve the world’s problems, but that, “Science based on intent that values life can save this planet,� he said.

since the beginning. Historical accounts note that some opponents suggested the addition of fluoride to public drinking water supplies was a “communist plot� to undermine public health. However, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control has recognized fluoridated drinking water as one of the 10 most important public health achievements of the 20th century, a list that includes vaccinations, improved motor-vehicle safety and recognition of the health hazards of tobacco use. Numerous scientific studies have found that fluoridated water is an effective method to reduce tooth decay, said Dr. Richard Clark, director of medical toxicology at UC San Diego Medical Center. “That’s why it’s in every tube of toothpaste that you

can buy,� said Clark. “It’s perfectly healthy.� “The science is settled on this. It’s well known that (fluoride) prevents cavities and it’s not toxic,� he said. No evidence exists of any negative health effects from fluoride at the low levels used in drinking water and toothpaste, Clark said. But some continue to insist there are negative effects. Michael Hogan, president of the Santa Fe Irrigation District Board of Directors, said his sister told him she is sensitive to fluoride due to a medical condition, and wanted to be informed if fluoride is added to the district’s drinking water. “There will be a segment of the population absolutely opposed to inserting a chemical into the water,� Hogan said. According to the website of the California Department

of Public Health, about 67 percent of the U.S. population has access to fluoridated drinking water. In San Diego County, about 70 percent of the drinking water supply is fluoridated, Bardin estimated. The district is closing its filtration plant for a $1.5 million project to improve the facility’s disinfection process, Bardin said. Baffling will be installed in a 13-million-gallon treatment tank, which will increase the time that water is in contact with disinfectants. During the plant’s closure, the district will receive treated water from the Metropolitan Water District’s treatment plant near Hemet, said Bardin. Once the Badger plant reopens, fluoridated water will remain in the system for about two weeks, Bardin said.

continued from page 1 time, Bardin said. Low levels of fluoride occur naturally in water supplies; but public health officials say that adding fluoride to drinking water prevents tooth decay, especially in children. However, opposition to fluoride has also aris-

en, ranging from those who are concerned about possible adverse health effects, to those who consider it a form of compulsory mass medication. “It’s very controversial,� said Bardin. Bardin said the Santa Fe district does not add fluoride when it treats drinking water at its R.E. Badger filtration plant for several reasons, including the added cost, potential opposition and a lack of demand for fluoridation from district customers. California law requires water agencies with 10,000 or more service connections to add fluoride to their drinking water. Santa Fe falls below that threshold, and therefore is not mandated to fluoridate its water supply. Fluoride was first added to drinking water in the United States in 1945, and its use has been controversial

BY KAREN BILLING While Dr. Curtis Chan has moved his dental practice from Carmel Country Plaza to Sorrento Valley, he will return to run his third annual Great Halloween Candy Buy Back with North County Dance Arts. The Buy Back helps local children unload the Halloween candy they don’t need for a good cause. The candy is donated to troops overseas and children are given $1 per pound (up to five pounds). The Buy Back will be held on Thursday, Nov. 3, between 3-7 p.m. at North County Dance Arts in Carmel Country Plaza. The child must be present and must have or make a card for the troops in order to receive their cash. Each child will leave with a free toothbrush kit, to brush away any damage from the Halloween candy they kept. Last year the drive was a big success, collecting 2,280 pounds. A whopping 910 pounds came from the dental buy back, with partners

Local production company celebrates positive power of film with ‘Grave Secrets’ BY MATT LIEBOWITZ Contributor So many movies that make it to theatres are flashy, good-looking and glossy but ultimately vacuous. For kids, that usually goes double — they’re sugary, high-calorie doses of entertainment overload with no redeeming value, no takeaway message. Mantooth Films is out to change that, one film and one story at a time. Dale Strack & Patti Judd “Storytelling unites us,� said Dale Strack, who, along with Patti Judd and Emmy award-winning producer Tonya Mantooth, runs the Rancho Santa Fe-based film company Mantooth Films. “We love to read good stories and tell good stories — we explain and teach through stories.� The three-person production team’s love of solid storytelling is on full display in “Grave Secrets.� Starring Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner Diane Ladd and Jennifer Stone from the popular Disney series “Wizards of Waverly Place,� “Grave Secrets,� is Mantooth Films’ adaptation of the book of the same name, written in 1997 by New Jersey sisters Annette and Gina Cascone and published under the name A.G. Cascone. “Grave Secrets� is the eighth book in the 17-book “Deadtime Stories� series of horror fiction novels, widely lauded not only for their entertainment but also for their kidfriendly bent and positive message. “We’re over the moon about “Grave Secret,� Strack, a local entrepreneur, said. “It’s exciting because it [“Deadtime Stories�] is a series based on great stores, and the evidence is in the cast. When Diane Ladd and Jennifer Stone want to be a part of it, that’s exciting.� “You want to do projects that have great stories that convey a lesson and make people think and grow,� Strack added. Tonya Mantooth said “Grave Secrets,� co-produced with filmmaking brothers Scott and David Hillenbrand (from the

A scene from the upcoming “Deadtime Stories: Grave Secrets� featuring Disney’s Jennifer Stone as the “Babysitter.� “National Lampoon Presents Dorm Daze� franchise), includes “very real, clever kid dialogue� and wraps its message in a fun and eerie plot. And for some real-time reassurance before the film comes out — it’s slated to be released in early 2012 in theatres, DVD and TV — Mantooth and her partners prescreened the humorous horror flick to perhaps the toughest audience: a group of 11-year-olds. The results gave the producers a serious dose of encouragement. “It was beyond like, they loved it,� said Judd, a San Diego native who brought her years of expertise in branding, publicity and marketing to Mantooth Films. The week before showing “Grave Secrets� to their own children, the Mantooth team screened it for a focus group of 30 tweens. “Twenty-nine of 30 said they’d see it again,� Judd said. The fun, however, isn’t just in the final product. Judd, Mantooth and Strack said the 16-day shoot, done off-lot in neighborhoods in Los Angeles and Ventura, was a wonderful experience, and often saw the set department totally trans-

forming the facades of homes. They even invited local kids into scenes. “We had a blast working on the film,� Mantooth said. “That old saying about never working with child actors didn’t hold up on this project. The entire cast and crew were simply amazing.� Of course, like any largescale creative venture, “Grave Secrets� had its challenges. But the team was ready and embraced the multi-pronged process. “It’s a balancing act,� Strack said. “There are so many moving parts, and lots of people bring their talent and skill; orchestrating all these people was fascinating.� Mantooth agreed. “You Tonya Mantooth with one of have to love all the moving her numerous Emmy wins. parts, and we do,� she said. Speaking about her colleagues, Mantooth sees each person’s particular skills as integral to the success of the final product. “We complement each other, and we all love managing all these big shifting pieces.� The end result is, of course, what the trio behind Mantooth Films is most excited about. And, fresh from recently seeing the film in its entirety, they couldn’t be happier about the way it all came together. “When you can step back, look at what you’ve produced on screen and see the reaction, from laughing to crying to invoking discussion, and you get something that can live on, that’s amazing,� Strack said. “Grave Secrets� is just the beginning of Mantooth’s mission: also in post- production is the thriller “Killer Holiday.� And Mantooth films is also working on the social drama “Bone Game� and another “Deadtime Stories� revamp, “The Witching Game.� Visit www.mantoothfilms.com.

Dec. 7: A Date of Infamy On 10/10/10 I was 69 years old. On 10/10/11, I was 70 years old and on Dec. 7, 2011 it will be 70 years since the Empire of Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor Naval Base, Hawaii, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s speech on Sunday, Dec. 8, 1941 described the previous day as “a date which will live in infamy.” On Dec. 7, 1941 my mother, Irene Duffy, and her girlfriend, Jessie Kelly, were together on Staten Island, NY, that fateful day holding each other and holding me, age two months and Kate Kelly, age three months. These two best friends promised each other to be together on Dec. 7 no matter what they were doing for as long as they could, and they did. Later, if they could not get together because of job opportunities elsewhere or family commitments, they called each other. Year after year they faithfully followed-up on their promise to each other to keep in touch on Dec. 7. When my mother died in April 1982, my Dad picked up the tradition for her and called Jessie for the upcoming Dec. 7, and when Dad died in 1983, I continued the tradition. I picked up the phone and called Jessie. It was a very tearful conversation that first Dec. 7, 1983 when I placed that call because of all the flooding memories. As the years

past it became more difficult to locate Jessie because as she got older, she began to spend more and more time with each of her six children. Every year on Dec. 7, I never knew where I would find her, but wherever I did, she was always glad to spend a few minutes with me on the telephone. She made me feel closer to Mom and Dad as we reminisced the past and forecast the future. Then in 1990 Jessie died. I hesitated at first to make the traditional Dec. 7 call to her daughter that year, but I did not want the 49-year tradition to end, so I picked up the phone once again on Dec. 7 and called Jessie’s youngest daughter, Roz, whom I had never met. Over the years since, Roz and I called each other on that date which will live in infamy and exchanged family news. Roz and her sisters and brothers even came to San Diego on their boat one year to visit me and my family after we left Staten Island in 1999. So then I finally got to meet her and her grown up siblings whom I played with many years ago. Three years ago I met Roz and Kate again in Florida with my sister, Irene, after we had all retired. We shared many memories of our parents and the many wondrous days we all spent together so long ago.

This past January, 2011 I had the opportunity for the first time in almost 70 years to visit the Memorial to the Battleship U.S.S. Arizona which was sunk on Dec. 7, 1941 in Pearl Harbor off the island of Oahu, Hawaii. This memorial is in honor of the memory of those brave men and women who died on that date of infamy. The silence of the thousands of visitors present was inspiring. To this day, we were told by the docent, oil continues to escape from the Arizona’s oil tanks far below the water after 70 years under the ocean. Now, as Dec. 7, 2011 is quickly approaching I cannot believe I will be 70 years old and a more than 70-year friendship continues to unfold. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of those lost on the day Pearl Harbor was bombed, and a 70-year friendship between two best friends and their extended families continues to be alive and flourishing. Perhaps, after me, my daughter will continue this tradition, the tradition of two best friends, and truly, this will be “a date which will live in infamy.” Diane B. Tyson Solana Beach

Buzachero earned his B.B.A. degree in industrial relations from the University of Alabama in 1974. All through school, he had worked in fast-food restaurants. In college, he managed two restaurants and after a brief stint in sales and marketing at a radio station in Decatur, Alabama — where he met and married his wife, Nancy — he returned to restaurant management and subsequently purchased two fast-food franchises in Decatur and Birmingham with his brother-in-law. From his experience in the fast-food business, he learned the critical importance of hiring the right people and developing an engaged team. His first job in human resources in the health field was creating campaigns on radio, television and at colleges to recruit nurses for a hospital in Birmingham, in the late 1970s. Subsequently, he himself was recruited by the Baptist Health System, also in Birmingham, as a compensation manager and later promoted to corporate vice president of human resources. He then co-founded an HR health consultancy in Cincinnati. It was successful, but it required a lot of travel, he said, and, at the time, he and his wife had two small children, so after three-and-

Over the past 10 years, Buzachero is credited with starting each fiscal year with a workforce strategic plan to define the HR plan going forward and communicating it to the staff. He then developed a strategy to lower the company’s reliance on temporary, premium-paid registered nurses from 20 percent in 2001 to below 8 percent today, resulting in a more stable permanent staff and more than $100 million in reduced labor costs annually. He and his staff also created a new compensation strategy for nurses that includes salary reviews every six months with merit increases and bonuses for increased patient satisfaction that has helped reduce the turnover rate of RNs from 25

percent in 2002 to 8.6 percent last year. Also, in 2002, Buzachero launched the first, company-wide annual employee engagement survey which initially indicated that only 58 percent of its employees considered Scripps a great place to work. In 2010, that figure climbed to 88 percent. “We don’t just survey, but we use that information to work with employees to make direct improvements in the workplace,” Buzachero said. “By staying on the cycle and coming back to the employees after first getting feed-back, talking with them, doing action plans, after a couple of years people began to trust … that we were going to do what we said we would do.” The two questions asked in the survey are: What makes this a good place to work and what would make this a better place? The last survey generated some 2,000 pages of comments. “Chris [Van Gorder] and I read them. We read them all,” Buzachero said. “And we do something about them.”

BY MARK DAUGHTERS, INTERLACED INC. Apple just unveiled their latest iPhone. The iPhone fiv... wait. iPhone 4S? Huh? This can’t be right. Apple must have missed a bad auto-correction when typing this up. I mean, this phone has a faster processor, amazing camera, 4G speeds, stronger cell reception, and a totally new voice activated assistant feature. It has to be the iPhone 5. On paper, the only thing the iPhone 4S doesn’t have that the iPhone 5 was “supposed” to have is a new outer case and a bigger screen. This raises a good question, would people who are disappointed with the iPhone 4S be satisfied with the exact same phone if it were simply called the iPhone 5? “That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” This naming structure is suggesting that Apple is in a two year release pattern to help people cope with the long two-year carrier agreements they sign with the purchase of new iPhones. Remember the iPhone 3GS came out after the iPhone 3G, and was seen as a modest upgrade. But for those who had the original iPhone the upgrade was too good to pass up. Perhaps this generation phone isn’t meant to entice people with the iPhone 4, so much as the people with the iPhone 3Gs. Most people (who are not insane, like myself.) don’t upgrade their phone every year. Apple can take their time and focus on making great software strides one year, and then great hardware improvements the next. This is all an assumption, as this is only Apple’s fifth iPhone release. Could Apple keep this same design next year? Very possible. John Gruber of DaringFireball.net points out: “Apple isn’t going to make a new form factor just for the sake of newness itself — they make changes only if the changes make things decidedly better. Thinner, stronger, smaller, more efficient. If they don’t have a new design that brings about such adjectives, they’re going to stick with what they have.” Regarding screen size. Apple has never change the size of their iPhone display. Ever. It seems obvious that they’ve figured out the best size screen for their phones through

years of research and development. Even though other competitors phones might have a huge screen, does that mean it is better? By that rationale the bigger screen, the better phone. Want a 10 inch screen on your iPhone? Buy an iPad. Apple does an amazing job of doing all the legwork to make sure that we don’t get a feature that actually makes the experience worse. Have they even tried an iPhone with a bigger screen? Of course. Smaller screens too. I’m sure the great minds in Cupertino have tried designs we can’t event think of. But they picked the current size screen for a reason. It makes the most sense for a device we use with our thumbs. A larger screen would make vital areas of the screen unreachable when using the device with one hand. Thus making the overall experience of using the phone worse. What makes this phone stand apart the most is Siri. The new voice command system that’s built into the iPhone, that make something like writing a newspaper article about the new iPhone as simple as talking. You can ask Siri anything from “Text my wife that I’m running late to dinner” to “Where Is the nearest Apple store?” to “How many cups in a gallon?” Siri delivers correct results immediately, and sometimes with some sass. Telling Siri to “Shut up” gets a “Did I deserve that?” come back. What I’m probably going to use Siri for most, is reading and replying to text messages. This can be done while the phone is still in my pocket while driving over my cars Bluetooth system. For those of you with an iPhone 4 already, is this a worthy upgrade? That depends. Are you crazy like me and buy anything with an Apple logo on it as soon as it comes out? If so then this is the phone for you! If you have an older iPhone you’ll be very pleased with all the enhancements that have happened since you upgraded last. If you’re using an Android or a BlackBerry, you’ve been missing out on the promised land for quite a long time. For you, there’s been no better time to join the cult of Apple by getting the latest and greatest iPhone. If you can find one, that is.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Samurai Restaurant

serves up royal treatment BY CLAIRE HARLIN Staff Writer If you were royalty going out to eat in Japan, you’d probably dine in a private room sitting cross-legged. You’d be served by a waitress wearing a kimono, you’d drink fine sake and the chef would serve you a traditional 10-course “oma kase” meal — meaning “chef’s choice.” But even if you’re not royalty, there’s a restaurant in Solana Beach where you can go to get that same treatment. Samurai Restaurant, located at 979 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, offers reservationonly private dining with 10or eight-course meals, which manager Eric Song said is great for those looking to have an upscale business lunch or try new dishes in an extravagant way. “The chef picks dishes with the freshest fish,” said Song. “People don’t have to

worry about what to order and they feel like kings.” Song helps his father, Charlie Song, run the restaurant, which has been part of the Solana Beach community since 1979. The Songs, from Korea, were one of the first families to open a sushi restaurant in the San Diego area, and a number of chefs from Samurai have gone on to open their own successful restaurants, such as Nobu in Solana Beach, Bluefin Fusion Japanese Restaurant in La Jolla and Toshi Sushi in El Cajon. “Back then, it was only us. Now every block has a sushi restaurant,” said Charlie Song about being at the forefront of the sushi movement. “It was a big hit in the United States because it’s healthy, and people enjoy eating it because it’s unique.” Charlie also pointed out that many sushi restaurants

KITCHENS/BEDROOMS/BATHS

don’t serve “real sushi.” Sushi rolls, for example, are not traditional, as opposed to nigeri (just the raw fish). “Sometimes they are even baking sushi, which is not the real way,” said Charlie. “And in Japan, they don’t put mayo on their sushi.” The Songs were also one of the first to bring teppanyaki-style cuisine to San Diego. Charlie said when he started doing teppanyaki, in which guests sit around an iron griddle and watch the chef’s elaborate cooking methods right before their eyes, Benihana was the only other place doing it. To add another dining experience to Samurai’s offerings, guests can sit at what could be the longest sushi bar they’ve ever sat at, and the restaurant offers happy hour from 5 to 6:30 p.m. “Our bar sits over 50

people,” said Eric, who recently attended college in Boston and plays football, basketball and baseball. “It’s definitely the longest sushi bar in San Diego.” Eric said he’s lucky to continue the rich legacy that Samurai has implanted in the Solana Beach community. The restaurant, originally situated on Highway 101, was started by his grandfather, who passed away in 1992. He is still much a part of the restaurant, however, because his hand-painted Asian-inspired murals adorn two large walls. Eric said he loves working with his dad and “not a lot of people get that fatherson relationship.” “I look up to my dad and grandfather because they are successful businessmen,” said Eric, adding that the men came to the United States with almost nothing.

Week in Sports BY GIDEON RUBIN Football: Cathedral Catholic is just two years removed from a historic 26-game winning streak, one of the longest in San Diego County history And now the Dons are in the midst of another amazing run. With their 53-0 thrashing of Scripps Ranch in an Eastern League game on Oct. 21, the Dons have outscored their last four opponents by a combined 116-7, with the only points allowed over that period coming on a garbage time touchdown at the end of a 26-7 nonleague victory Eastlake.

Solana Beach Soccer Club’s Girls U16 team undefeated at season mid-point The Solana Beach Soccer Club’s Girls U16 team has reached mid-point of the season with an undefeated (5-0-1) record, and is in second place in the prestigious and difficult Presidio League. The team is led by forward/midfielders Georgie Lawson and Mariel Cathcart, and has the stingiest defense in the league—allowing only 6 goals all season. It is challenging to field a recreational soccer team after the players reach high school age. Players tend to focus on high school sports, or find other interests and drop recreational athletics altogether. But, 18 girls from six different high schools (Canyon Crest Academy, Cathedral Catholic, La Jolla Country Day, San Dieguito Academy, Santa Fe Christian and Torrey Pines) have chosen to lace on their booties and kick the ball around each weekend with their ‘mates. Some of the girls have played rec. soccer in SBSC for a decade, while others have played for competitive teams before returning to SBSC. Many of the girls have been teammates for years, and often have a better idea of where they want to play than their coaches. “I set the line-up very carefully,” says Head Coach and SBSC Board Member Jeff Lyle, “but, then I look up to see that two of the players have changed sides. ‘What’s going on girls?’ I’ll ask. And, they’ll tell me, ‘Chloe is better on the left side,’ or ‘Ary prefers right defender.’ Sometimes we have to be more directive, but, so far, it’s working.” Assistant coach Tim Pickwell says the girls are goofy, until challenged. “We had a poor pre-game warm-up, one game, and looked like we were asleep at the opening kick-off. The other team scored in less than a minute. But, then the girls got fired up and took it to them. They love the competition.”

Torrey Pines Pop Warner 2011 Jr. Mighty Mite Golden Falcons prove to be unbeatable, finishing the season 9-0. Led by Coach Sean Doheny, they have outscored their opponents 241- 51.

#005329 Carmel Valley Dons Tackle Football 5th grade team members. Photo/SusieTalman.com

CV Dons 5th grade team off to 4-1 start The Carmel Valley Dons Tackle Football 5th grade team has started its season with an impressive four-game winning streak. In a recent game against the Chula Vista Aztecs, the Dons players demonstrated a strong offensive show by putting up 40 points against the Aztecs. Outstanding line play by Grant Anderson (5), Justin Vilchis (34), Logan Berzins (11), Cole Shearson (22), Leo Silverman (55) and Raymond Sanchez (9) proved too powerful. Crew Fritsch (56) added, “these guys are beasts with an average weight of 110 lbs. per player, anyone can run behind our Offensive Line.” Not to be outdone, running backs William Alter (15), Edin Gonzalez (32), Owen Davies (83), and Ethan Kreutzmann all had long impressive runs. First-year wide receiver, Young Soo Kim (6) caught an impressive 40-yard pass for a touchdown from team captain Jack Foate (20) and Chaz Talman (1) scored his first touchdown on an impressive sweep of 15 yards. The Carmel Valley Dons Youth Football League was formed in 2010 to create a highly competitive Division 1 Youth Football Program to prepare top athletes for high school football. The League’s home stadium is Cathedral Catholic High School (CCHS) and players proudly wear the colors of CCHS. Informally nicknamed “Little Dons” by the Cathedral High football players, much of the team’s first year success can be attributed to the support of Cathedral’s Varsity Head Coach Sean Doyle and Athletic Director David Smola. For information about the League, visit www.cvdons.com.

Artist creates altar of love and spirit

Painting by Todd Swenke

1. What brought you to this area? I was born and brought up in Northern England. After graduating university I came to San Diego hoping to do a Ph.D. in Russian Studies at UCSD, where my older brother taught. I ended up falling in love with North County, stayed and ended up getting a Ph.D. in psychology, with an expertise in personality. 2. What makes your work special to you? Growing up in England with my extended family in one house, I was struck by all the unnecessary conflict among the adults. What I like about my work now is that I get to work with different personalities, helping people understand themselves and one another better so they can get the best out of each other. It’s very rewarding to help people feel better using the science of personality and the techniques of psychotherapy. 3. What would you still like to achieve professionally?

Artist Todd Swenke, who specializes in painting the colorfully-adorned skeletons that characterize Dia de los Muertos, has erected three large and elaborate altars at the entrance of the shop, which not only bring attention to the Latino holiday, but also pay homage to his own family members who have passed on. As tradition has it, Dia De Los Muertos is a time when the dead return home to visit loved ones, feast on their favorite foods and listen to their favorite music. Swenke has traditionally honored deceased family members in

UCSD history professor debunks myths about pirates

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY WILL BOWEN Contributor “The image of pirates presented by writers, such as Robert Lewis Stevenson and Daniel Defoe, is false,” claims Stanley Wahlens, UCSD Extension Division advisor and pirate aficionado. “Pirates like William Kidd were actually agents of the British government with a license to plunder Spanish ships.” Wahlens, along with about 50 other individuals, mostly UCSD staff and faculty, came to listen to a scholarly and intriguing lecture by UCSD history professor Mark G. Hanna titled, “A Nest of Pirates: Piracy and the Formalization of the First British Empire,” held on Oct. 20 in the Seuss Room at the Geisel Library on campus. The lecture was given in connection with the exhibit, “Unburying Treasure: Pyrates at Geisel,” which is located on the main floor of the library. Marlayna Christensen, Outreach Librarian at Geisel, who helped curate the ex-

pirates. It reveals everything you might want to know about pirate lifestyle and weaponry. It will be up through January 2012.” Hanna, who earned his Ph.D. from Harvard University, with a dissertation on the impact of pirates on Newport and Charlestown, Rhode Island from 16701730, said he was never particularly interested in pirates growing up and never planned to make the study of pirates his lifelong avocation. His original interest was fatherhood in America, he explained, but as he was giving a talk on an American father named William Harris, who had been captured by pirates, he noticed the audience was most fascinated and had the most questions about the part of his paper on pirates. These questions led him to go back and redo his search of the records on pirates. According to Hanna, fictional writers and Hollywood have given us a misleading picture of pirates as swashbuckling social out-

The Johnny Depp portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow would only be valid for the very short time period of 1713 to 1730.” Hanna found that many communities on the periphery of the English Em-

pire supported pirates because pirates brought in money (from the business of repairing and refitting their ships) and other resources (such as slaves, who they captured during their acts of piracy). Pirate James Brown married the daughter of a deputy governor and was selected for political office in New England, while pirate Thomas Cromwell was welcomed by John Winter the governor of Boston as a

“God’s Send.” Captain Henry Morgan, whose image is depicted on Morgan Rum bottles, was given permission to plunder the Spanish colonies and was eventually knighted. He later bought a plantation in Jamaica and ended up executing other pirates! Some communities, like the Quakers in eastern Delaware, tolerated and protected pirates from prosecution because the pirates only attacked ships owned by Muslims — a religion the Quakers thought was a product of the Antichrist. The pirates who walked freely in their midst were also a guarantee against further religious persecution by the British Crown. Hanna said historical documents reveal that when it comes to pirates, it’s difficult to sort fact from fiction, but generalizations about them are wrong; pirates have gotten a bad rap, and ended up as everyone’s scapegoat, be it for their anti-capitalist lifestyle or flamboyant clothing or aberrant sexual norms.

‘Fresh’ is the word of the day at The Fish Market BY KELLEY CARLSON atrons of The Fish Market restaurant in Solana Beach seem to be hooked on the fresh catch offered daily. Whether it’s in the retail market or in the dining area, there’s something for everyone — from species in season to locally caught varieties like swordfish. Customers can get a jumpstart on their day with a stop at the retail market, which opens at 10 a.m., an hour before the restaurant. Located just inside the front entrance, the seafood — much of it glistening in varying shades of pink — is on display under glass. A shopper may find Pacific opah (moonfish), Mexican yellowtail, Pacific mahi mahi, Alaskan halibut, black mussels or Sea of Cortez prawns, and much more. “It’s (the market) essentially the showpiece of what’s on the menu; it’s a purposeful place for people to buy fresh fish,” said Jim Wendler, president of The Fish Market. “People know us for having an extremely highquality product.” There’s also smoked fish, produced out of The Fish Market’s facility in South San

For guests who dine in the restaurant, there’s so many options they can try something new each time they come in and never repeat, according to Wendler. The menu changes a couple of times daily, and is driven by the types of fresh fish that are available. The fresh fish entrees are mesquite grilled, and any of them can be made Cajun or blackened.

mussels and cockles with house-made marinara sauce and garlic bread. A group of three or four people may want to try the Smoked Fish Sampler, with trout, salmon, nova lox and albacore. There’s Fish Tacos, served with ranchero-style black beans; panko-style fish and chips; and seafood sandwiches and pastas. Not a fan of underwater species? Try one of a handful of salads, or order the Boneless All-Natural Jidori Chicken Breast or Omaha Natural New York Steak. Children can stay occupied with an activity booklet while enjoying food from their own special menu with pizza, pasta, shrimp, fish and chicken. To add to a patron’s unique dining experience, the nautically themed restaurant has seven

seating areas, featuring seafaring characters etched in glass, and murals by Wyoming artist Jocelyn Slack, along with artwork of boats and other marine scenes. Kick back at the oyster bar — where oysters are served on the half shell with Asian-style Mignonette or cocktail sauce — and drink a glass of wine. Perch on a stool in the dimly lit full-service lounge/bar, or anchor yourself in the bar patio that is reminiscent of a greenhouse. There’s plenty of room to maneuver in the spacious main dining room, but when it’s busy, the back dining room with its removable partitions becomes another destination. The deck has a plank-type of wood on the floor, with small lamps on the tables and multiple-paned windows. For a little privacy, there’s Fred’s Room, named for Fish Market Restaurants Inc. founder Fred Duckett, which can accommodate parties of up to 17. “We’ve been in the business for 35 years,” Wendler said. “Seafood is a complicated product to deal with, but we have earned trust from our customers over the years, and we have the quality that they appreciate.”

Local resident continues husband’s work to help families affected by stage 4 cancer, fund research BY KELLEY CARLSON Michael Moore was only 50 years old when he was given the grim news that he had stage 4 bile duct cancer. But out of his lifethreatening illness, the idea for an organization to help others affected by cancer was born. Live Moore provides financial aid to families affected by stage 4 cancer, and also helps fund research for gastrointestinal forms of the disease. It was “Mike’s heart and soul — he loved to help people,” said his wife, Veronica Moore. Mike’s diagnosis came as a shock to his family and friends. The Detroit native lived in Southern California most of his life and was very active. According to Veronica, Mike worked out five days a week, enjoyed martial arts and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and was an annual competitor in the Camp Pendleton 10K Mud Run. He had a career in mortgage banking for more than 20 years, and eventually served as divisional president of Prospect Mortgage. “He had been perfectly healthy,” Veronica said. But in August 2010, Mike started complaining of stomach pains and took two

Mike and Veronica Moore days off of work, “which was unusual,” she added. After several tests, it was determined that Mike had an ulcer. But during another exam, he felt pain when the doctor pressed on his liver. Blood work revealed that Mike’s liver enzymes were elevated; just weeks before, another blood test had indicated that the enzymes were normal. Just after his cancer diagnosis — but before knowing the type and the severity — Mike proposed to Veronica, after three-and-a-half years of courtship. Veronica said that he had wanted to solidify their relationship. “When you love somebody, you’re in it through

A dinner was also held at Tommy V’s in Del Mar on Oct. 15. Veronica noted that random people have made do-

nations online, at www.livemoore.org. It’s estimated that $60,000 has been raised so far, she said. The money is divided 50-50 between families affected by any type of stage 4 cancer with financial hardship, and physicians and researchers at UCSD who are developing early detection techniques and better treatments for patients with gastrointestinal cancers. “There’s no real funding for GI cancers,” Veronica said. “There aren’t that many cases in comparison to other (types, such as breast cancer, etc.).” Veronica said that Live Moore has aided three families so far, with a fourth “in the making.” A $10,000 donation was recently made to UCSD, she added. Meanwhile, Live Moore has set a fundraising goal of $60,000 to support a biostatistics database needed for developing the assessment of response markers, or biomarkers, which are substances in an organism whose presence indicate a disease or infection. Molecular profile screening of patients using biomarkers can optimize personalized treatment with the best specific chemotherapy for each patient. The organization is still in the grass-roots stage, Veronica acknowledged. “Everyone (who is part of it) works,” she said. “This is something done in their spare time.” However, Veronica said Live Moore hopes to plan one grand event each year, in October, and get the word out about its existence. Mike’s son Ryan, who just started medical school at UC Irvine, is active with the organization, primarily with the medical side, communicating with doctors at UCSD. Veronica’s focus is with the families in need of financial aid. Along with promoting Live Moore and raising funds, Veronica works at staying positive. She continues to live in Carmel Valley, and is a Realtor with Prudential, John Lefferdink & Associates in Rancho Santa Fe/Del Rayo. Her therapy is exercise, and she loves running on the beach. In fact, Veronica was featured in Shape magazine’s “You in Shape” feature in October after sharing her story about Mike and her efforts to stay fit as mental and physical therapy. She received the call about her selection from Shape on what would’ve been Mike’s 51st birthday. “I can’t help but think he was looking over me,” Veronica said. She noted that along with workouts, she did a lot of reading and journaling early on. The 37-year-old also found friends around her age who have also lost their husbands to cancer. “They’ve been a positive influence,” Veronica said. “I surround myself with family and friends, and don’t put things off,” she added.

Eco-wise artists ‘trash’ New Children’s Museum BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT Contributor What is trash? What impact does it have on our lives? How can we deal with it in more sensible ways? When and how does trash become art? These are some of the questions addressed by a new exhibition at the New Children’s Museum. Shazam! Twelve artists create imaginative installations from rubbish. Pretty patterns formed by magnetized metallic dust from old TV and computer parts. A crawl-through maze decorated with used clothes. A modern-day midden full of plastic throwaways. A lacy cloud of plastic bags. An illuminated Styrofoam rocket flying over jagged cardboard peaks and climbable walls. The exhibit, which opened with a community block party the weekend of Oct. 15, will run through Fall 2013. “We’re not like traditional museums, which keep changing exhibits. Our exhibits run two years. Our visitors LIKE coming back,” said Rachel Teagle, NCM’s

executive director and chief curator who has been part of the museum since 2007, a year before it opened. “We look for artists who understand what it means to take kids seriously,” she said. “We try to present real issues, and still keep things playful. We want kids to have fun thinking about

things. Then we have a really big opportunity to have the information stick.” With TRASH, she looked for artists who were already interested in the subject, an increasingly popular one in today’s art world, where eco-wise artists are finding other people’s junk and their own a good source of material.

IND IVI DU AL TIC KE TS STI LL AV AI LA BL E

TING CELEBRA

“We have open calls for artists, inviting them to submit ideas,” Teagle said. “Mikey Eastman came to us through our open call, and we’re proud to say this is his first exhibition.” Eastman, who uses electromagnets made from copper wire in old computer fans and metallic

residue from grounddown electronic devices to create delicate dust sculptures, is a San Diegan, as is Jessica McCambley, whose lacy plastic-bag clouds invite contemplation. The majority of the TRASH artists are Californians, but Vik Muniz is from Brazil, home of the world’s largest landfill. His oversized photographs give grandeur to the garbage-pickers who roam through the dump, recycling whatever they can. One of the main-floor attractions is Kianga Ford’s playspace made of wire mesh and plastic bottles. The artist interviewed kids on both sides of the Mexican border, and found that, while most said recycling was important, they didn’t know why. “Because you get a really big fine if you don’t,” one said. “TRASH opens up complicated issues that even adults don’t consider,” said Teagle. “There are no easy answers, but we have to start asking the core questions: Where does our stuff come from? And where does it go? How many of us

If you go What: Fun with TRASH When: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. MondaysWednesdays and Saturdays and Sundays; Closed Thursdays; 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fridays Where: The New Children’s Museum, 200 West Island Ave., downtown San Diego Admission: $10; free to members, seniors and infants under age 1; $5 military Free Second Sundays: Nov. 13.

know that the average American tosses out 4.5 pounds of waste every day?” Daily workshops show kids how to make their own art out of trash, things like “midden monsters,” glowing space sculptures, or photos of garbage. And parents are welcome to join in the fun.

North Coast Rep’s ‘Heroes’ finds strength in its cast BY DIANA SAENGER Let’s Review! “Heroes,” a heartwarming look back (and forward) on the lives of three World War 1 heroes living out their days in a veterans’ home, won the Laurence Olivier Best New Comedy Award in 2006. Translated by Tom Stoppard from French playwright Gérald Sibleyras’ script, the North Coast Repertory Theatre version, stars Ray Reinhardt as Henri, Ken Ruta as Gustave, and Jonathan McMurtry as Philippe.

Vaporizers – Not Just For Marijuana Anymore A La Jolla start up company has reinvented the vaporizer to provide relief from common ailments, such as pain, anxiety, insomnia, and asthma. Clovershield, Inc. has developed a state-of-the-art device while working with clinical herbalists to introduce organic, all-natural herbal blends as viable options to pharmaceuticals. Vaporization delivers the herbal medicine to the pulmonary system and into the bloodstream safely and instantly for immediate results, without harmful side effects. “Designing the Herbalizer device was easy,” quotes CEO and Founder Josh Young, a Bird Rock resident and former NASA engineer and as for funding the project he says “We have had a lot of interest from VC’s, but we are much more interested in finding Angel Investors.” Pilot testing and focus groups underway have proven results for asthma relief and sleeplessness, taking effect not in minutes or hours, but in seconds. The success makes vaportherapy a serious consumer option in the $15 billion annual alternative medicine market in the United States.

Close your eyes and dream a little….. Namibia, Africa. In the evening, the sky glows a fiery orange over the sunbaked earth. Far away from civilization along the Kunene River where temperatures soar to 125 degrees, in this remote spot embedded in mica, a stone the color of the sun was discovered in 1991. The Spessartine Garnet or more commonly called Mandarin Garnet, until then the mandarin garnet could be found in Sri Lanka, Australia, Kenya and Tanzania. However, garnet from these regions were typically

smaller. These rich reddish-orange stones, are more beautiful and radiant then any that had been found before, and hardly any inclusions interfered with the brilliance of these noble garnets. Orange symbolizes joie de vivre and individuality. Available at Martin Katz Jewelry: 6016 La Granada Rancho Santa Fe; (858) 7594100; www.martinkatz.com

Eat, Drink and be Scary: Sassy Spirits and Ghoulish Grub The Kitchen Shrink

CATHARINE KAUFMAN Contributor I’m shellacking my nails black and stirring my caldron bubbling over with Beluga and blinis and pumpkin martinis for a grown-up Halloween hoopla. All Hallow’s Eve, an ancient Catholic custom honoring saints, has morphed into a $3 billion-a-year trick-ortreating candy orgy. But big kids can have fun, too. • Celebrity chef Brian Malarkey will be shakin’ things up at his downtown Searsucker with some bone chilling cocktails like the Femur Shot — an actual steer femur bone, cleaned, boiled and stuffed with a concoction

of coconut, lime and vodka. • For a sweet and seasonal refresher, The Grant Grill on Broadway will offer its famous Smashing Pumpkin that appeared on The Food Network’s “The Best Thing I Ever Ate.” This glorious gourd cocktail blends pumpkin, star anise, rum, Grand Marnier, St. Elizabeth Allspice Dram, aromatic saffron syrup, cardamom bitters and a squirt of fresh Meyer lemon. • For howling werewolfs, Donovan’s Prime Seafood will be pouring The Full Moon, a lunar libation of Double Cross Vodka, Valrhona white chocolate, vanilla infused pisco, and Sal de Camargue. • And for pure insanity, chug down the Mental Ward 10 of high west “bourye” bourbon, pomegranate, molasses, lime and sugar at Hotel Palomar’s new Saltbox Dining and Drinking. • Visit the Rancho Bernardo Inn for a Ghoulish Grog of Bacardi light, gold and dark rums, Grand Marnier and grapefruit, orange and pineapple juices served in a Mason jar with a glow stick garnish.

Pumpkin Pecan Cherry Bread As the skeleton said to his dinner guests on Halloween – Bone appétit! Ingredients: 1 15 ounce can pumpkin puree 2/3 cup apple juice or water 1 cup canola or grapeseed oil 4 large eggs 3 1/3 cups unbleached flour 2 cups brown sugar 1/2 cup maple or agave syrup 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon nutmeg 1/2 cup toasted, chopped pecans 1/2 cup dried cherries or raisins Method: Preheat oven to 350º F. Grease two loaf pans (8 x 5 inch) with oil. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine pumpkin, oil, eggs, syrup and beat until smooth. In a large mixing bowl combine

ogist, may I make some eerie recommendations so you can shake, rattle and roll in your own home? This Black Cat is one you definitely want to cross paths with on Halloween – an icy Blavod Black Vodka blended with a raspberry-flavored Chambord garnished with fresh raspberries. Or a Bloody Brew, a twist on

the remaining ingredients. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet, blending until thoroughly mixed. Pour into loaf pans and bake for one hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes clean. Serve with whipped cream or pumpkin gelato.

the classic Bloody Mary which adds a splash of beer to the mix to make it sizzle and foam at the mug. To shock the senses, (and your guests) try a Brain Hemorrhage that truly resembles gray matter in a glass. This cocktail layers Peach Schnapps and Irish Cream with a finishing drizzle of

Grenadine over the top, giving the libation its signature color. And for that sweet caffeine jolt, do a Cookie Monster Cocktail that makes a liquid cookie sandwiching Irish Cream between Kahlua and Peppermint Schnapps. Whip up some fun Halloween eats to accompany these drinks. Kick off the fes-

tivities with an Eyeball Antipasto making a platter of your favs including artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers and giant green olives stuffed with pimentos, cut in half and strategically placed with toothpicks on small, fresh mozzarella balls to resemble orbs. Decorate Pirate Pizzas with plenty of red sauce, orange peppers and black olives, serve sushi with splashes of orange roe and smoked salmon, and other finger foods such as crispy spring rolls, turkey meatballs, or chicken and veggie skewers with a sweet, sour and sassy dipping sauce that mocks clotted blood made of grape jelly, ketchup, French dressing and dash of Tabasco. Finally, a Graveyard Mud Pie with a chocolate mousse base, crumbled chocolate cookies for the cemetery soil and dollops of whipped cream for ghostly images. Stick Lady Fingers into the mix to simulate headstones. For other killer recipes, email kitchenshrink@san.rr.com or see www.FreeRangeClub.com.

Q&A continued from page B1 problems as if one size fits all. My understanding of personality has taught me that people understand the world differently based on their personality. I would like to leverage this understanding to work with larger groups of people, whether it is with politics or different religious groups, to promote better cooperation and understanding. 4. Who or what inspires you? I had two mentors who inspired me, one was a brilliant psychiatrist and very kind, and the other was a brilliant UCSD psychologist who understood people, was

kind and meticulously honest. They both, in different ways, inspired me to want to live a compassionate and disciplined life. 5. If you hosted a dinner party for 8, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? My wife and daughter Rachel (because she’d be so mad at not being included), Jesus Christ, Sigmund Freud, Steve Jobs, Abraham Lincoln, and Richard Branson. Ideas about human existence and individuals with a vision interest me most. 6. Tell us about what you are currently reading. I regularly read the Economist, the New Yorker and the Atlantic. I’m also reading “Predictably Irrational,� a great book on human

psychology. 7. What are your favorite films? I don’t really have favorite films. In a way I see my patients’ life stories like movies, and in that sense I see many movies a week, because they are all human stories. 8. What do you do for fun and what is your favorite vacation destination? I surf, play volleyball, walk, bike, ski and enjoy dinner parties. I love the tropics, especially Maui. 9. Please describe your greatest accomplishment. It sounds trite, but while I’m proud of the books I’ve written and developing an expertise in personality, I’m proud of my marriage and our daughter

because I was afraid, given my childhood, that I wouldn’t be able to do a good job! 10. What is your motto or philosophy of life? See things from others’ perspective, be kind and spread a little love and beauty. Things will work out.

Artist Todd Swenke’s Dia de los Muertos altar installation at Leaping Lotus in Solana Beach’s Cedros Design District. PHOTO: CLAIRE HARLIN tled “Transision,” illustrates the transition from past life to post-mortem, and shows a woman (painted by Tiffany), who is half skeleton (painted by Swenke). “It gives you so much fulfillment as a parent to create something with your child,” Swenke said. The exhibition also features an altar created by Maya Ramirez, from Aguascaliente, Mexico, which shares relics from her family in Mexico. Three-dimensional art by Cesar Castaneda is also on display —including two tree stumps that have been transformed into ornate and organic feathered animal heads, one of which is suspended high above the ground. Also on view (and on sale from almost $900) is a boxed spring bed that was used as the palette for a large, detailed Dia de los Muertos-themed painting. Leaping Lotus is located at 240 S. Cedros Ave. For more information call (858) 7208283.
