‘Toast Your Imagination’

Issa apologizes for comment BY JOE TASH U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa, RVista, has apologized for his comment — made in a March 22 article in the Rancho Santa Fe Review — that a House colleague told an “outright lie” at a committee hearing on contraception last month. Issa, who chairs the powerful House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, referred in an interview with the Rancho Santa Fe Review to a statement made by Democrat Carolyn Maloney, D-New York. Maloney had criticized the lack of female representation on a panel of witnesses at a Feb. 16 hearing called to discuss whether the government could force religious institutions opposed to birth control to offer contraceptive coverage to their See COMMENT, page 15

Sale of The Inn might be finalized next week Escrow on the sale of The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe is expected to close April 10, according to RSF Association President Jack Queen. The Royce family, which has owned the property for more than 50 years, decided to sell the property last fall. The Inn sits on a 21-acre property along Linea Del Cielo at the entrance to the Rancho Santa Fe village. As reported by the Review in January, the buyer of the property is the JMI Realty Group, whose president, John Kratzer, lives in the Covenant. According to Queen, representatives of JMI will be at the Association’s board meeting on April 19 “to formally present both their short term and long-term plans to the community.” For more, see the RSF Association Buzz column on page 2 and next week’s RSF Review.

New RSF Golf Club General Manager likely to be hired soon “Toast Your Imagination — A Celebration of Tabletops” was the title of the RSF Community Center’s Spring Luncheon held recently at The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe.

R. Roger Rowe School Latin Festival R. Roger Rowe School held its second annual Latin Festival on March 29 in the school’s Performing Arts Center.

The RSF Golf Club is entering its final phase of hiring a new general manager for the club, according to RSF Association Manager Pete Smith. “We anticipate that we will have a new general manager on board by the end of April,” said Smith, who has been serving as the club’s interim manager, in addition to his duties as RSF Association manager. The new general manager will fill the position left vacant when former general manager Steve Nordstrom resigned last fall for “personal reasons.” A professional search firm was hired to help find the ideal candidate, Smith said.

Community celebrates life of Roger Rowe Between 700 and 800 people attended the memorial service and celebration of life for Roger Rowe on Saturday, March 31, at the Village Community Presbyterian Church.

Buzz: Inn sale, New Association board members BY RSF ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT JACK QUEEN It is generally recognized that Greek philosopher Heraclitus coined the saying, “The only thing constant is change.” The older I get the more I realize how right he was. Although change doesn’t come very fast to Rancho Santa Fe, there are a couple of changes on the horizon for our community. First, on April 10, the escrow on The Inn is due to close. Last October, the Royce family, which has owned the property since 1958, elected to sell the property. The offer to sell

generated a great deal of interest in the property due to location and the property’s historic character that dates back to 1922 when it was first opened. Since the very beginning, The Inn has played a key role in the development of the community and actually helped establish our unique character. At the end of the day, the buyer of the property is the JMI Realty Group whose president lives in the Covenant. The Association has had several meetings with the representatives of JMI to go over Jack Queen their plans for the property and I am pleased to report that what we have heard so far should be well received by our members. Representatives of JMI will be at the Association’s board meeting on April 19 to formally present both their short term and long-term plans to the community. Another change is coming and that is in July we will

have two new Association board members. Both Dick Doughty and I will be stepping down from the board on June 30 as our terms expire. At the end of the nominating process and after contacting numerous potential candidates, two very qualified candidates have agreed to run for the board and they are Rochelle Putnam and Craig McAllister. In addition to the efforts of the Nominating Committee, no other nominations were received directly from the membership. So with only two candidates to fill two positions, the outcome of this year’s elec-

tion is certain. But even though there are only two candidates, we are required to still hold the election as we will need 75 ballots to generate a quorum to validate their election to the board. My congratulations to both new board members and I know they will enjoy the experience. OK, Pete Smith came up with the first quote but for those of you who are still with me; here is one in a little lighter tone also from Heraclitus, “It is better to hide ignorance, but it is hard to do this when we relax over wine.”

International high school essay contest launched Part of the International Bipolar Foundation’s (IBPF) mission is to erase stigma associated with mental illness through public education. To that end, the Foundation has launched a global essay contest open to all high school students internationally. “Our hope,” says Muffy Walker, president and founder of IBPF, “is that students will be interested in winning the prize and thereby research stigma in order to write the essay. In so doing, we will be educating a lot of young people and hopefully changing their perception about mental illness.” The topic of the essay is “Changing the Future of Stigma; Bipolar Disorder in 2020.” First and second place winners will be judged by a panel of authors who currently write about bipolar disorder and mental ill-

ness, and the winner will be announced in May to celebrate May as Mental Health Month. In addition, the First Place winner will receive $500 and the Second Place winner will receive $100. Both winners will have the opportunity to read their essay via Skype at the Foundation’s Public Forum with former Congressman Patrick Kennedy on May 22. For more information about the International Bipolar Foundation or to receive the essay rules and registration form, contact Ashley Reitzin: areitzin@internationalbipolarfoundation.org.

Popular Happy Time Nursery in RSF celebrates 50th anniversary BY KAREN BILLING On Monday morning, Mary Ann Tessary saw the balloons outside of her Happy Time Nursery School in Rancho Santa Fe and feared for a minute she’d forgotten somebody’s birthday. In fact, the surprise celebration was for her 50th anniversary of operating the charming, traditional Happy Time out of her home on Las Colinas. It’s a school where children ride ponies twice a week, enjoy high tea daily and learn all about kindness and love. In 50 years, Tessary has never tired of her job and her young students. “They’re just so full of en- Happy Time Nursery thusiasm and love,” said Tessary, owner Mary Ann Tessary taking a break from her celebratory cake. “How many people get to go to work and have 10 ‘I love yous’ and hugs and kisses? Not very many.” Parents say Tessary has been the same teacher throughout the years, always answering her door in the morning with a smile and friendly welcome, being caring and forgiving with the children and helpful for the parents. Happy Time children will get a well-rounded experience under Tessary’s care. “She really helps children to become better people,” said parent Elissa Cheney. “They flourish.” Tessary started her nursery school 50 years ago in Del Mar when she was just 19 years old. “I moved it to Rancho Santa Fe over 45 years ago because I wanted the ponies to be a part of the nursery school,” she said. The Welsh Mountain ponies are a part of the curriculum, as are the chickens and the vegetable garden, which children take pride in tending and harvesting. Parents and kids around the school fondly call Tessary “Big Teacher.” The origin of the nickname is a favorite tale—back when she began, her mother helped out at the school. Her mother

was a diminutive five feet tall while Tessary hovers around the 5’ 9” mark. Students began calling her mother Little Teacher and Tessary Big Teacher and the name has stuck for 50 years. She now has a staff of nine, including her son John Paul whom she brought to Happy Time when he was a week old. Now he is in charge of art and academics, doing one-on-one learning sessions with the kids to prepare them for kindergarten. Twenty-five children a day attend Happy Time with four teachers, and parents pick from three weekly schedules. Having good manners is something Happy Time stresses daily. Students must always say “please” and “thank you” and aren’t allowed to utter the word “Yeah” — they must say, “Yes” and they often go home correcting their parents. Mondays and Tuesdays the children learn music, Thursdays are for gymnastics and on Friday they learn Spanish. One of the most treasured traditions is the afternoon high tea. Before service, the children recite a charming blessing: “Thank you for our food, thank you for our love. May the love begin and may it begin with me. I love myself and I love you.” When the child says, “I love myself” they give themselves a squeeze and then must dispense hugs to the rest of the children.

“It takes 10 minutes to hug everyone,” said Tessary. Children who do good deeds are awarded special demitasse teacups and get music from a wind-up music box played for them. “When I started the nursery school I had paper cups and I knew I wanted demitasse cups and saucers, even at 18,” Tessary said. There is also a Queen and King for good deeds of the day and they not only get the special teacup, but also select a special king or queen crown to wear. Inside the school, the toys are impossibly tidy on the shelves and there are plenty of books, games and tables where math, reading and writing skills are taught but you won’t find a single computer. “It just shows you don’t need a lot of bells and whistles to build a good school,” said parent Heather Slosar. “The kids are all happy and they all leave ready for kindergarten.” On Monday, parents collected donations to help Happy Time with some repairs, hopefully to get the school a new blacktop. Any Happy Time alumni interested in donating to the school can e-mail Evan Malter at emalter@gmail.com. For more information on the school, visit happytimenurseryschool.com.

Free public talk on ‘The Challenging Texts of Mark’ to be held in RSF April 28 A non-denominational talk. “The Challenging Texts of Mark,” on the Bible by Madelon Maupin, MTS, will be held on Saturday, April 28, from 2-3:30 p.m. at Christian Science Church, 6165 La Flecha, Rancho Santa Fe. The event is free. This talk is for both new Bible students and those who have read for years. Maupin will dive into some of the more perplexing texts in this first Gospel written. What did Jesus have against fig trees? How does Mark’s portrait of Jesus differ from the other Gospels? What do they have in common? The goal will be to learn how to look at a Scriptural passage from many angles: historical, con-textual, geographical, political and spiritual. Please come and bring your own questions, as well as your Bible. Madelon has a masters in theological studies from San Francisco Theological Seminary, was cultural historian for Princess Cruises’ trips to Biblical Lands, and a recent trustee of The Crisler Library in Ephesos, Turkey. She has authored numerous articles on the Bible’s application for today. Madelon has gained recognition as a dynamic and engaging speaker on a variety of Biblical subjects and their relevance to contemporary life. For more information, call 858-756-1691.

Sunny and Angel celebrate another year of health and happiness Helen Woodward Animal Center recently held a second birthday party March 31 for “miracle twin foals” Sunny and Angel. The extremely rare pair and their mother Lena, who gained worldwide attention through streaming video (and even their own Facebook fan club called “Foal Fanatics”), have been beloved members of the center since their arrival. Followers may remember that mother Lena, a 9-year-old maiden, registered Quarter Horse, was expecting her first foal in late March. On the morning of March 28, Lena surprised everyone with twins. The twin birth was both a thrill and a concern for doctors who knew that their chances of survival were extremely slim. (Twin foals have about a one in 10,000 chance of surviving birth and only about a one in 15,000 chance of surviving their first two weeks of life.) The family was immediately rushed Sunny and Angel to Helen Woodward Animal Center’s Equine Hospital in hopes that all would be able to overcome the unbelievable odds. Once arriving Lena, Sunny and Angel, under the care of Dr. Rodrigo Vazquez of Equine Surgical Services along with the staff of the Helen Woodward Animal Center’s Equine Hospital technicians, monitored the twins 24 hours a day. With round-theclock- care, the foals have thrived and grown to become a lovely and entertaining pair. Mother Lena reunited with her foals at their Saturday celebration.

Proﬁle J. Steven Poceta, M.D. Scripps Clinic neurology chief doubles as sleep disorders specialist BY KATHY DAY Most people find they are either too sleepy or can’t sleep. That’s the starting point when J. Steven Poceta, M.D., begins trying to diagnose a person’s problems in his special field of interest – sleep disorders. The head of the Division of Neurology at Scripps Clinic and a consultant in sleep disorders, the local resident has been on the La Jolla clinic’s staff since 1988. “Sleep [is] very important for a sense of well being and quality of life,” he said in an interview in his office overlooking the Pacific and the Torrey Pines Golf Course. On the walls are photos of Vancouver, British Columbia – a favorite getaway – and of his wife Lori and their two children. Surrounding his desk are journals and patient files. A tall, slender man, he shifts around a bit in the new chair he’s trying out to help with a sore back. A bit formal at first, he relaxes as the interview goes on – adopting a friendly manner

certain to go over well with patients. He disdains a few overused words, says he doesn’t have “a passion” but a “special interest” in sleep disorders, especially those with both neurological and sleeprelated aspects such as restless leg syndrome, sleep-related headaches and circadian rhythm. He also sees patients with sleep apnea, insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness and sleep-walking. Circadian rhythm disorders – such as jet lag or being an extreme night owl – are the least understood, he said. “I see teenagers not doing well in school because they can’t get up and can’t get to bed at a decent hour.” It’s about whether you are a morning or a night person – which can be evaluated on a 19-question scale, he said. “It’s fairly highly treatable,” he added as he turned on a super intense light box that patients can use to “fool the body” into better sleep patterns. While the scientific side

is the basis for diagnoses and treatments, it is the quality and safety issues such as optimizing job performance and staying awake while driving that motivate him. He primarily lets others study long-term consequences such as potential risk factors related to sleep disorders and stroke or cancer. Even so, he has published more than 40 works, including a sleep disorders book. His most recent study, published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, looks at a small group of patients as well as defendants being prosecuted for “sleep driving” who had taken Ambien. Poceta, who received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan – a half hour drive from his Detroit home – and his M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, calls himself a lucky man. Lucky, he said, that he did well in high school and was able to go to college; lucky that he got a workstudy job in a high-level research lab on campus that enabled him to skip most of the pre-med requirements, and lucky that school was easy for him and that the times were easier than they are for his college-age children. And, later he adds, lucky that his extended family has never faced a major tragedy. Choosing his specialty was not one of those “eureka” moments. “You spend a lot of time in medicine and almost everything is interesting – the eye is interesting, how the kidney works,” he said. Instead, he based his choice more on the personalities of the doctors in the various fields than on the field itself. Neurologists are generally considered the “brainy, nerdy type,” he added, “but I’m not like that.” He just

When he gets there, he and Lori retire to their garden, where they grow a lot of their own food, and relax with a cocktail. The couple also enjoys cooking — right now they’re working on Indian recipes from a Vancouver restaurant’s cookbook. Then he “turns off” until about 2 a.m. before he starts thinking again. To help, he often meditates. “I’m interested in the body clock and observe mine,” he said. When he’s off the clock, so to speak, he and Lori like to travel, particularly to Vancouver, where they have an apartment. These days, they are studying Turkish as they prepare for a visit to Istanbul.

Upcoming Bags & Baubles fundraiser for FACE helps prevent pet ‘economic euthanasia’ BY KELLEY CARLSON The annual Bags & Baubles fundraiser is an opportunity for FACE to shine. Scheduled from 1 to 5 p.m. on April 29 at a private estate in Rancho Santa Fe, the second annual event is one of the Foundation for Animal Care and Education’s premier affairs. About 250 guests are expected to attend, according to FACE Executive Director Stacy Steel. The nonprofit FACE was established in 2006 by a group of veterinarians who were distraught over the rise of “economic euthanasia,” in which pets are left to suffer or are euthanized when their owners can’t afford the cost of treatment. FACE provides financial assistance to animal owners, with money raised through donations and special events such as Bags & Baubles. At the upcoming fundraiser, there will be a silent auction of more than 200 new and “gently loved” designer handbags; starting bids will begin at 10 percent to 15 percent of retail value. “The deals people are able to get on handbags are extraordinary,” Steel said. In addition, there will be opportunities to purchase jewelry, while guests socialize with one another and consume food and beverages. A high-end raffle is also planned, featuring items such as a Nancy Gonzalez purse, a Kazanjian Bros. wooden cuff with South Sea pearls and diamonds, an 18-carat white gold blue topaz necklace by Yael Designs, and a sterling silver beaded bracelet with an 18-carat yellow gold dog charm from Dodo. Tickets are three for $25 or 15 for $100. Lulu, a dachshund who is one of FACE’s success stories, is expected to make an appearance. The “girly” dog loves to dress up and will have three to four changes of clothes, Steel said. About 470 animals have been saved by FACE since its inception. One recent case involved a 3-year-old French bulldog named King. On Christmas Eve, King was running and playing at a dog park when he injured his back. His owner, Bernie, immediately took him to a veterinarian, where he was given a steroid injection. After two months of bed rest, King was on the road to recovery, but he suffered a setback when a loud noise startled him and caused him to jump. Once again, the canine was in pain, and the paralysis in his back legs returned. The steroid shot didn’t work the second time around, and surgery was required.

Lulu, one of FACE’s success stories, is scheduled to make an appearance at the Bags & Baubles fundraiser on April 29. Bernie was presented with a financial challenge. Once a manager for after-school programs, he was laid off because of budget cuts, and had to move in with his parents, who were on a fixed income. Bernie was unable to afford the entire cost of King’s surgery. However, FACE came to Bernie and King’s aid, and helped defray the costs of the procedure. King underwent the surgery on March 15, and the prognosis was positive: The doctors said he would have the ability to walk again. Steel had the opportunity to visit King the day after his surgery. A big bandage covered the length of his spine, but there was comfort in knowing it was only temporary. “He’s adorable,” Steel said. Headquartered in Sorrento Valley, FACE is the largest organization of its kind in San Diego County, Steel said. It provides part and full financial assistance for family pets in need of critical or emergency care, and is affiliated with 67 hospitals in the area. Pet owners in need can call FACE at (858) 450-3223, and fill out a one-page application that can be obtained through the nonprofit’s Web site, www.face4pets.org. “We respond very quickly,” Steel said. The nonprofit obtains paperwork from the veterinarian, and requests proof of financial hardship from the owner. Turnaround can be as short as one hour, and normally occurs within 24 hours, depending on the nature of the emer-

gency, according to Steel. Unfortunately, cases are on the rise, she added. “There’s definitely been an increased demand over the years for our assistance, as families in our community continue to struggle in this economy,” Steel said. It’s the reason FACE needs financial support from the community, in the form of donations, she explained. “The generosity of individual donors provide the FACE recently helped King, resources we need to fund a 3-year-old French bulldog these life-saving procedures,” Steel said. who had injured his back. FACE has provided more than $743,000 in assistance since August 2007, when the nonprofit issued its first grant. The average case costs the foundation $1,500. Funding for FACE is primarily provided by individual pet owners, with additional contributions from hospital partnerships. Special fundraising events are held throughout the year, such as Bags & Baubles. More than $50,000 was raised during Bags & Baubles last year; this year’s goal is $83,500, Steel said. Meanwhile, FACE is still seeking sponsors and handbag donations, which are tax-deductible. Admission to Bags & Baubles is free; the location is provided with an RSVP. Call Brooke Haggerty at (858) 4503223, or go to www.face4pets. org. For more information about FACE; volunteer opportunities, such as office, marketing, public relations and fundraising; or to donate, visit the organization’s Web site. “We’re a small nonprofit with great big dreams and big goals,” Steel said.

“Small Wonder”-The Covenant

April 5, 2012

LINDA SANSONE &

A S S O C I A T E S

Rancho Santa Fe Real Estate: 2012 Q1 Performance Summary Overall, Rancho Santa Fe real estate (defined for the purpose of this analysis as all attached and detached residential properties listed with the San Diego Multiple Listing Service for the 92067 and 92091 zip codes as of April 1, 2012) is slightly slower this first quarter of 2012, compared to the first quarter of last year. Specifically, sales are down 14% from 57 properties sold in 2011 Q1 to 49 properties in 2012 Q1. This decline in demand was not overlooked by potential sellers, resulting in an 18% drop in new listings. Falling supply along with the slower sales reduced average daily inventory 21% from 291 properties in 2011 Q1 to 231 properties in 2012 Q1. Generally, sellers took advantage of this reduction in supply by keeping their properties on the market 40% longer, waiting for the best price. This helped increase overall median sold price 9.7% from $1,937,500 to $2,125,000; however, it also extended the average overall marketing time to 11 months, an increase of nearly 100 days. Unfortunately, when we look at the performance of the subpopulations which make up the overall Rancho Santa Fe market, we begin to see the ambiguity of ‘median value’ as a sole performance indicator.

Original Listing Price: less than $3 million This enchanting single story estate situated on one private acre, captures the timeless beauty and romantic style of a California Hacienda. Located in the Covenant, within walking distance to the village, golf club and school and surrounded by lush lawns, mature trees and vegetation. The home encompasses 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. There is an attached casita with one bedroom/bath, kitchen and living room (this is considered the 4th bedroom). French doors lead to outdoor loggias, verandas and to the sparking pool. Additional amenities and design elements include: interior remodeling and upgrading, hardwood flooring, slabs of granite, garaging for 3 cars. A great property in a very desirable location.

Of all the three subpopulations that make up Rancho Santa Fe, properties having an original list price less than $3 million experienced the largest inventory decline than any other subpopulation. From 2011 Q1 to 2012 Q1, inventory declined nearly 30%. This decline occurred dynamically throughout 2011 from fewer new listings and sales. If we take a snapshot of 2011 Q1 and 2012 Q1, we can see the result of this slowing. In 2011 Q1, there were 102 new listings and 36 sold properties. In 2012 Q1, there were 90 new listings and 31 sold properties resulting in a -12% and -14% change, respectively. While both supply and demand were decreasing, demand appears to have weakened most. Responding to this weakening demand, sellers kept their properties on the market 60% longer than they had only one year prior, bumping up average marketing time from 150 days in 2011 Q1 to 239 days in 2012 Q1. Unfortunately, waiting longer for a better offer was not enough to maintain 2011 pricing levels. Sellers also ended up more aggressively discounting their original list prices. In 2011 Q1, median discount from original list price was 10.9% versus 14.9% in 2012 Q1. Between lower starting original list prices in 2012 Q1 and more aggressive discounting, median value for this subpopulation declined 9.4%. It appears that this subpopulation has given back some of the pricing strength it had acquired prior to 2011. Given that prior pricing strength and relatively lower inventory, I suspect we will see price stabilization start to take effect around current levels for this group.

RSF-The Bridges Rental $2,195,000 $23,500

Original Listing Price: $3 million - $5 million Here is where we start to see the ambiguity of ‘median value’ as a sole performance indicator, as mentioned above, especially when applied to non-homogeneous properties like Rancho Santa Fe. Of all three subpopulations, this one, properties with an original listing price between $3 million and $5 million, was the only subpopulation to exhibit a median sold price increase when comparing 2011 Q1 to 2012 Q1. The ambiguity arises when we see that this subpopulation only represents slightly over 20% of the entire sold market for each of the two quarters and that its median price increase is less than the overall market. What are important to remember when assessing this ambiguity are the definition of median value change and the direction of the other performance indicators of this subpopulation. Being a mid-point indicator, mathematically the median value change for the overall market can exceed the “change” of any subpopulation, but to further assess the positive direction of this change we can look to other variables that would corroborate it…and sure enough, they do. This subpopulation was the only one to maintain the same number of sales. The other two subpopulations’ sales declined. However, not only did sales remain steady for this subpopulation, but they sold 6% faster. All this occurred with 20% less inventory and essentially the same number of new listings. With these other indicators supporting seller strength, a positive median value change between 2011 Q1 and 2012 Q1 is most likely representative of this group’s quarterly annual performance. A key indicator to watch going forward is number of sales. If they can increase while keeping the other indicator strengths fixed or improving, we will see further directional strength for this group.

Original Listing Price: $5 million or more Of all three subpopulations, this one had the largest percentage change in sales and marketing time. Sales declined 33% from 9 properties sold in 2011 Q1 to only 6 properties in 2012 Q1. Furthermore, the average marketing time doubled going from 328 days in 2011 Q1 to 717 days in 2012 Q1. While it appears that this marketing time extension allowed sellers to wait for a stronger offer, since median value decline was only 4.7% under such market weakness, one must wonder what price these sellers could have attained 717 days ago without incurring 2 years of market decline. Going forward, it appears that many potential sellers are waiting for some demand to come back into this subpopulation, since new listings have declined 67%. Given that this subpopulation has the largest percentage supply than any other subpopulation, 9 properties per every property sold, this is probably a wise decision, along with buyers insisting to see every property available that meets their criteria.

COMMENT continued from page 1 employees. “Where are the women?” Maloney asked, noting that all five witnesses on the panel were men. In the interview, Issa said the panel actually consisted of 10 witnesses split into two groups. The second group, he said, included two female witnesses. He also said Democrats on the committee had not requested any qualified female witnesses for the first group of panelists, which consisted of

members of the clergy. Maloney’s statement, Issa said in the interview, “was an outright lie and she knew it when she U.S. Rep. said it.” Darrell Issa, On R-Vista Tuesday, March 27, Issa apologized to Maloney for his choice of words in both a telephone call and a letter to the con-

gresswoman. In his letter, Issa referred to his comments in the Rancho Santa Fe Review and wrote, “For years, we have collaborated as colleagues on numerous projects intended to create better government for the American people. In this context, I agree with your point and regret that my choice of words in an interview with a community newspaper did not reflect the collegial relationship and open communication you and I have long enjoyed.” Maloney invoked

House rules to respond to Issa’s comments on the floor of the House Tuesday. She said she accepted Issa’s apology, but continued in her insistence that women were not adequately represented at the hearing. As she spoke, supporters held up an enlargement of a photograph of the five clergymen testifying at last month’s hearing. In her remarks, Maloney also referred to Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown University law student who was not allowed to testify on Feb. 16, but spoke at a hearing the following week.

Fluke became the center of a firestorm after conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh called her a “slut” and a “prostitute.” “I know what I said that day and I know it to be true but I do think the Democratic witness, Sandra Fluke, and the women of America, are owed an apology — an apology for denying them a voice — an apology for denying them a seat at the table,” Maloney said Tuesday. In response to a request for comment from this newspaper, a spokesman for the Oversight Committee wrote in an email, “While

R. Roger Rowe students visit Science Center 6th grade students from R. Roger Rowe School recently visited the Ruben H. Fleet Science Center in Balboa Park. The students watched the IMAX movie “The Coral Reefs” as a part of their studies for the school’s Scripps Ocean Partnership. Additionally, they worked in one of the classroom labs learning more about ocean food chains and food webs. There they experimented with buoyancy while designing creatures that would neither sink nor float. Students also had the chance to visit the Science Center, which is now host to a new exhibit about geometry. The Ranch School’s Integrated Science program is one of the stars in the Five-Star Education Program, sponsored by the Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation.

ROWE

continued from page 1 Rowe Roast and again at his retirement in 2001. Dr. Rowe loved Irish music and school nurse Helen Galvin sang “Danny Boy,” which he enjoyed hearing her sing on various occasions. The service began with the entry of a full military honor guard; it concluded with a gun salute, Taps and flag presentation to Mrs. Rowe from the guard.

It literary took a Village to pull the memorial celebration together and make it successful. The memory boards were filled with memorabilia provided from the Rowe family and were divided into stations covering his service to the school, community organizations, sports, family and personal interests. Dozens of homemade cookies were donated by

past parents of the Rowe School and The Inn provided beautiful and delicious displays of cheeses and fresh vegetables. Nearly 50 volunteers, clergy and staff members of the Village Church worked together to provide the service, program, set up, ushering, guest book signing and all of the arrangements for the reception following the service. The Association and

Rancho Santa Fe Patrol planned and supervised an efficient and very successful shuttle service from town parking lots to the church. The system worked seamlessly and there were no parking problems or traffic congestion around the church. The Rotary helped with the parking in various locations and underwrote some of the parking expenses. The

Rancho Santa Fe Foundation was instrumental in arranging for underwriting through various individuals and organizations and provided the flowers for the sanctuary and reception tables. Many individuals and organizations too numerous to name stepped up for Dr. Rowe’s memorial, and Rancho Santa Fe once again proved itself to be a fine

community of caring individuals. — Anne Feighner The program contained a blank memory page for attendees to write special stories or remembrances of Roger Rowe. If you did not fill one out at the memorial and would like to contribute to this memory book, please email them to Afeighner@ mac.com. They will be copied and included in the book.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

The state of our youth: Unintended losses of adolescent substance abuse

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY NANCY KNOTT, M.A., SCRIPPS HEALTH You caught your high school student smoking marijuana. He swears it is the first time he’s tried it, and it won’t happen again. Is this just an adolescent “rite of passage”— or possibly something far more serious? The drugs of choice among adolescents today are far different and much more powerful than those parents experimented with as teenagers. Moreover, the consequences can be far more destructive, and even deadly. Alcohol, marijuana and MDMA (“ecstasy”) lead the list of the most popular drugs among adolescents. Prescription medications such as Oxycontin and Vicodin, along with over-the-counter cold medicines, are simply recreational drugs for some adolescents. Heroin began making a comeback several years ago and is now reaching epidemic proportions in some areas of the country. How concerned should you be? We’ve found that 95 percent of parents underestimate the problem. Consider these daunting statistics: The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reports that alcohol use and binge drinking among our nation’s youth is a major public health problem. In 2009, 24 percent of high school students reported episodic heavy or binge drinking, and 10 percent reported driving a vehicle during the past 30 days when they had been drinking alcohol. According to a 2010 survey conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), daily use of marijuana increased

among high school students from 2009 to 2010; among 12th graders, usage was at its highest point since the early 1980s. In addition, high school students perceive the regular use of marijuana as less risky than in years past. NIDA also reports that recreational use of OxyContin has increased in 10th graders over the past five years, and use of Adderall and over-the-counter cough and cold medicines among 12th graders remains high. Over 65 percent of 12th graders reported they obtained prescription drugs from a friend or relative, 19 percent got a doctor’s prescription, and 8 percent reported buying them from a dealer. The NIDA survey also found that use of MDMA has risen among 8th and 10th graders. As with marijuana, the perceived risk of this drug among youth has declined. According to a 2003 report from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the purity of heroin in the U.S. increased from an average of approximately 7 percent a couple of decades ago to approximately 69 percent. The increased purity, together with a decreased street price, are likely responsible for the growing number of young heroin users, who can snort the drug rather than inject it. However, many graduate to injecting the drug as their bodies become conditioned to its effects and they need stronger doses to get high. Users who begin by snorting heroin have the highest risk of becom-

Education Matters Surviving ‘The Hunger Games’ BY MARSHA SUTTON The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins, makes me lose my lunch. Never one to pan a book adored by young readers, I say this with a heavy heart. My general belief is that any book that enthralls children Marsha Sutton and ignites their imaginations so that all they want to do is read more, is nothing short of miraculous and must be worthwhile literature. But this is different. The Hunger Games, with its sinister plot and cold, calculating brutality, is such a vile presentation of the insatiable human capacity for gore and bloodshed that I have to question its suitability for children. That nearly all reviews are uncritical and gloss over the gratuitous violence, focusing instead on the young heroine as a positive role model for girls, is just as mystifying. The plot centers around a strong-willed 16-year-old girl named Katniss who tries to retain her humanity while forced to participate in a “game” for the entertainment of her country that pits children against children in a fight to the death. Citizens bet on which of the 24 arbitrarily chosen children will win – meaning, will live. The book’s horrifying futuristic gov-

ernment that sponsors this annual hunting event with human sacrifices makes aggressive dog-fighting seem like hopscotch and football star Michael Vick look like a spokesperson for PETA. First, it’s bad science fiction. Sci-fi and representations of dystopian societies must be believable. Yes, we have to suspend our knowledge of current technological limitations and value systems to buy into the stories. Warp drive, after all, is not real. Nor is time travel … so far. But stories like Star Trek and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court work because they convincingly portray civilizations and inventions that might be plausible. Even books using fantasy, magic and magical realism can work if cleverly created and supported. Magic isn’t real, but if it were, Harry Potter could actually exist because author J.K. Rowling imagined a fantastical world supported by characters who might live in such a place. And she allows for ordinary humans – Muggles – to blissfully co-exist. Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight vampire books insert fantasy into everyday reality, mixing both worlds to allow readers to engage and connect with at least some of the characters. But it’s just not credible that an entire country, in The Hunger Games, would so enthusiastically embrace the ritualistic killing of children by children and revel in the spectacle of remorseless teenagers hackSee GAMES, page B19

Culinary trio creates new catering and events company BY KELLEY CARLSON Stingaree Executive Chef Antonio Friscia has blended his culinary talents with two other chefs’ skills to create a new catering and events company in San Diego County. Campine, which officially launched this month, is the collaboration of Friscia; chef/partner Andrew Spurgin, formerly of Waters Fine Catering; and Brian Malarkey, chef/owner of Searsucker, Burlap, Gingham, Gabardine and the upcoming Herringbone. The venture assists with event planning — from backyard soirees to black-tie galas — and presents cuisine paired with mixed drinks from Snake Oil Cocktail Co. Campine has the ability to draw from resources made available through the chefs’ restaurants, including talent booking, menu conception and event production. “I’m thrilled to be working alongside two incredibly talented chefs and comrades in a way that allows us to evolve from the walls of our restaurants and bring the best of our offerings to people in unique and private settings,” said Friscia, a Del Mar resident. The 45-year-old is able to draw from years of experience in the food industry. His culinary training began at age 5, when he helped his father, Antonio, and grandfather, Carlo, at wholesale

seafood distributor A. Friscia Seafoods in San Francisco’s North Beach Italian community. “It was my inspiration for cooking — seeing all the chefs as a kid, and all the action going on in the kitchen,” Friscia said in an interview. “It was exciting to me.” He also discovered that the skill came naturally to him. “In my family, all of them are really good cooks,” Friscia said. Upon earning a bachelor’s degree in hotel and restaurant management from San Francisco City College, he left for Italy and studied under Chef Gualtiero Marche-

si and Chef Nicola Tadescino at Scuola Albergeria, mastering Italian pizza and perfecting the art of rotisserie and grilling. He served as sous chef for Tadescino’s Ristorante Pedrocchi, as chef/pizzaiolo for Ristorante Sei Camini, and was contracted to design and open an Italian restaurant at the Surya Beach Hotel on Bali. After spending two years in Italy and one in Indonesia, Friscia traveled throughout Southeast Asia and Thailand, and took notes for future culinary endeavors. Once he returned to the United States, Friscia opened five restau-

rants in the Bay Area. In 1998, he moved to Del Mar and became director of operations and executive chef for Alfiere Mediterranean Bistro at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina, before partnering with the Enlightened Hospitality Group to open Stingaree in 2005. The idea of Campine — named for a heritage breed chicken — came to fruition last June. Malarkey and Friscia, who had done much fundraising work together and were longtime friends, began to toss around the idea of a catering company, despite being busy with their restaurants. According to Friscia, both agreed that their colleague Spurgin would be the best person to bring in for a catering and events business. “Neither one of us is as much of a logistics type as he (Spurgin) is,” Friscia said. “Both of us are chefs.” So they contacted Spurgin — who has won prestigious industry awards such as Catersource’s ACE Award for Best Caterer in the West and the Spotlight Award for National Caterer of the Year — and he agreed to come on board. “I have been in the catering business for 35 years and have experienced firsthand all of the incredible growth within the industry,” Spurgin said in a news release. “That said, I know when it’s time for a change, and Campine is

exactly the invigorated change the catering business needs.” According to Campine’s blog, the company’s moniker was chosen because “sustainability and respect for food and its providence is a shared value to our kitchen. Without heritage breeds like the Campine and heirloom crops we risk losing critical biodiversity. We support local and regional farmers, fishers, ranchers and artisan producers first where possible. Choosing the name Campine symbolizes this important component of our makeup.” Each member of the trio has found a niche within Campine. Spurgin handles the logistical aspects and sales, while Malarkey, who was a contestant on Bravo’s reality competition show “Top Chef,” is a “PR machine,” according to Friscia. “Taking our show on the road to create incredible experiences that are different than what we’re each individually known for, but are altogether uniquely Campine, is going to shake up the private event world,” Malarkey said in a news release. Friscia serves as the production chef and collaborates on menus, working out of the same space for Campine and Stingaree. He noted that he enjoys creating menus for people on the most See CULINARY, page B19

In Memoriam: UC San Diego Economist Halbert White, 61 • White’s once-radical innovations are now a daily part of statistical software RSF’s Halbert L. White, Jr. – Chancellor’s Associates Distinguished Professor of Economics in the Division of Social Sciences at the University of California, San Diego and cofounder of Bates White Economic Halbert L. White, Jr. Consulting – died March 31 following a four-year battle with cancer. He was 61. One of the world’s leading economists, White began teaching at UC San Diego in 1979. Widely recognized for his work in econometrics and the mathematics of neural networks, White is perhaps best known for developing a standard errors test, on the basis of which Thomson Reuters predicted in 2011 that White was a contender for the Nobel Prize. UC San Diego Chancellor Marye Anne Fox said, “Hal’s 30-plus years of service to this campus helped propel our economics department to the top-ranked powerhouse it is today. Even as the entire UC San Diego community mourns the passing of a remarkable researcher and teacher, we know his legacy of contributions to his field, and the world more broadly, will live on.” White was born in Kansas City, Mo., on Nov. 19, 1950. He earned a bachelor’s degree in economics from Princeton in 1972, graduating as valedictorian. He earned his Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1976. Before joining UC San Diego, he was on the faculty of the University of Rochester. White was recruited to UC San Diego by Robert Engle, who shared with Clive Granger the 2003 Nobel Prize for Economics. “Hal was a terrific colleague and will be

deeply missed,” said Valerie Ramey, chair of UC San Diego’s economics department. “He was an insightful and energetic scholar, whose intellectual leadership helped our department rise to international prominence. Over a long and distinguished career, Hal made significant and fundamental contributions in numerous areas of economic theory and practice that today influenced a broad range of disciplines. He was also a cheerful and generous mentor. We often marveled that such a wonderful personality could also be generating such brilliant scientific ideas.” In May 2011, former students and colleagues gathered at UC San Diego for an academic conference honoring White’s lifelong achievements. White had a deep affection for Kansas City, its jazz and its barbeque. But his favorite place on Earth, he said, was his back patio, with his wife, Teresa, and a gin and tonic at his side. White is survived by his wife, Teresa B. White, of Rancho Santa Fe, Calif.; his sisters Celeste White of Redding, Calif., Catherine White of Sheepscombe, England, and Lynda Lanker of Eugene, Ore.; and his son Rich Heath West of Park City, Utah, and his daughter Rachel Heath of Carlsbad, Calif. (Though they are technically stepchildren, White didn’t refer to them that way nor did they call him their stepfather. In every way that matters, the family says, Hal, Rich and Rachel were family.) In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in White’s name to the American Cancer Society. Donations can be made online or can be sent to American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 22718, Oklahoma City, OK 73123-1718. White’s funeral will be private. Plans are pending for public memorial tributes in Washington, D.C. and at UC San Diego.

Cirque du Soleil coming to Del Mar Fairgrounds BY MARSHA SUTTON Four Cirque du Soleil actors surprised and enchanted wide-eyed visitors at Balboa Park’s Natural History Museum last week to promote their newest touring show, TOTEM, which arrives in San Diego at the Del Mar Fairgrounds on April 25 for a limited engagement. Dressed in full makeup and costume as a frog, monkey, caveman and human tracker, the actors leaped, staggered, posed and pranced around the museum display depicting early evolution, with characteristic Cirque du Soleil dazzle and grace. The performers charmed their impromptu audience with personal interaction and unrehearsed spontaneity, giving mesmerized children and delighted adults an upclose view of elaborate costume designs and makeup creations for which Cirque du Soleil is famous. Accompanying the actors were the show’s artistic director Tim Smith and head of wardrobe Amanda Balius who said the tracker’s makeup takes about 90 minutes to apply. Costumes, she said, are inspired by both the story line and nature itself. The frog’s Lycra body suit, for example, matches the colors of real frogs, with an added shine to give it its wet reptilian look, she said. One of the main characters, the Crystal Man, wears an eight-pound leotard with 4,001 mirrors glued in place. This, Balius said, was probably the most challenging costume and is checked carefully each day to ensure the mirrors are in good condition. The costumes, Balius said, must be made to give the artists maximum flexibility to move freely in acts that often involve highly skilled acrobatic maneuvers, without sacrificing the integrity of the costume design. The story line for TOTEM traces the evolution of humankind from its original amphibian state to scientific heights. TOTEM is inspired by many cultures’ founding myths and illustrates through its 11 separate acts the evolutionary progress of the species. Artistic director Tim Smith said the show evolves with each performance and each performance presents challenges that require actors and support staff to prepare for any occurrence. “There’s a chance for anything to happen,” said Smith, who leads the show’s artistic team.

TOTEM features 52 acrobats, musicians, singers and actors from 20 different countries. The artists in character appearing at the Natural History Museum last week were Yann Arnaud (caveman) from France, Joe Putignano (monkey) from the United States, Ante Ursic (tracker) from Germany and Caoliang Wang (frog) from China. Premiering in April 2010, TOTEM is currently playing in San Jose and will appear under the blue and yellow Grand Chapiteau at the Del Mar Fairgrounds Ante Ursic, tracker; Yann Arnaud, on April 25. After its caveman; Caoliang Wang, frog; and Joe Putignano, monkey, run in San Diego, TOTEM will travel in blend into Natural History 60 trucks to Boston Museum exhibit.

Thriving Fairen Del and The Madison Suite deliver ‘magic’ to devoted clients

Rachow has been a part of the shopping center on Via de la Valle for 18 years, creating stores that she hopes make Irina Rachow owns people feel good the Fairen Del and second they step in- Madison in Flower side.

The new boutique is currently under construction at the resort, set in the middle of a beautiful new patio area, new bar and restaurant.

Because of our Pre-Season Special, you don’t have to settle for cheap windows. The problems with cheap windows: • Even through normal temperature changes, vinyl and fiberglass windows expand, contract, warp and leak. • Only staples, screws and glues hold them together, so when their seals break, and their insulating gas is gone, so is your comfort.

The solution is our Fibrex® window: • We’re the replacement window division of Andersen, and they developed our Fibrex material to meet their superior standards. • Fibrex is so strong it prevents glass movement, seal failure, and discomfort in your home.

This Pre-Season Special ends April 30th To keep our installers working during our slow season, we’re offering the biggest discount we can afford.

“phenomenal” team of employees. “I feel so lucky to have the strong people that I have with me,” Rachow said. “My people stay and there’s not a lot of turnover. To me, that is the biggest compliment.” Rachow has been at Flower Hill since 1994, when she opened the original Madison to match her store in Carlsbad that opened in 1991. In late 2007, she sold the store at Flower Hill and when it didn’t work out for the buyers she returned to open Fairen Del in 2009. The spot next to her two-story Fairen Del opened up last year and she brought back Madison, which has been open for the last six months. She also owns a second Fairen Del in Carlsbad. While Fairen Del is a “true women’s boutique” (the bottom floor is strictly shoes), Madison has a much more masculine feel with maps and ships on display in between all of the luggage that caters to “Indiana Jones to James Bonds types.” “We really romanced it,” said Rachow of the store. “We really know this business, my staff and myself are all world travelers and people know that. Our clientele is very loyal.” Flower Hill’s renovation has been a challenge to work around but Rachow said that her clients have stuck with them and she said sales have barely taken a dip. “Every center anywhere goes through renovations like this. This is Flower Hill’s turn. There’s light at the end of the tunnel,” Rachow said. “It’s going to be beautiful. I know that some new stores are coming in that I’m excited about, that will round out the mix we have. Flower Hill was very overdue for getting a refreshed look. I’ve seen a lot of businesses come and go, but I think the stores we have in here are pretty great.” Check out Fairen Del at The Madison Suite at fairendel.com.

Kids Korps USA’s Super Star Gala “A Night at the Royal Ascot” takes place on Saturday, April 28, at the Del Mar Country Club. The co-chairs of this event, Christena Ferran and Marlene Holmquist, are both professionals in their respective fields of marketing and design. They also have something else in common: a background in horsemanship – a theme that is woven throughout this year’s Gala!

Raised on her family’s lemon ranch, Marlene learned to ride horseback at an early age. She has been a member of the local, award-winning Rainbow Riders Mounted Drill Team for the last 16 years. Often referred to as “The Blue Angels on Horseback,” the team performs at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, the LA Equestrian Center, and at various rodeos and parades from San Diego to Santa Barbara. When not engaged in equestrian sports, Ferran is president of Echelon Marketing Group which provides small businesses a full range of marketing and business development services, as well the coordination of exclusive, special events. Outside of the horseback riding ring, Marlene Holmquist, ASID, is CEO and principal designer at Studio One, Inc. Interior Design, serving discerning clientele since

Sunset Soiree at House of the Two Urns

Vita Baker, Carlota Campbell and Linda Hahn

Tom and Marge Greubel and Bob Macdonald

The House of the Two Urns was the site of a recent Sunset Soiree hosted by Nancy White of Coldwell Banker. The estate — at 5469 Linea del Cielo — was built in 1934 by renowned architect Gordon B. Kaufmann for Edgar and Louise Wallace. The Wallaces wanted a home that was earthquake-proof and fireproof. As a result, the home is constructed of reinforced poured-in-place concrete with 18” thick walls and no wood on the exterior. The 4.37-acre site offers one of the most breathtaking views in the CoveArchitect Don Edson and Designer nant. Architects were amazed at the conMaureen McMahon struction visible in the walk-in attic. Longtime Rancho Santa Fe residents Bob Macdonald and Tom Clotfelter were there, as were architects and builders Don Edson, Farshid Mohseni of Zinc Design, Allard Jansen, Andrew Wright and Mark McClure. “So many friends and neighbors had always been curious to know what lies beyond the two magnificent 12’ urns at the driveway entrance”, says White, “so I wanted to introduce this home to members of the community.” Guests were greeted with a jazz trio playing music from the ‘30s and ‘40s. The event was catered by Campine, a Culinary + Cocktail Conspiracy. The property is currently listed for $4,350,000. Please call Nancy White for more details at 858-735-6505.

Let the Men in Black take you for a ride BY MARTI GACIOCH Men in Black wants to take you for a ride — to San Diego Airport or a wedding, prom or party of your choice — in a stretch limousine or luxury sedan. After opening Men in Black, their high-end transportation service in 2009, co-owners/brothers Selim and Umut Aslan, worked hard to grow their business to the 15 employees and a fleet of 11 luxury vehicles it has today. The pair learned the limousine business by working for another San Diego limousine company for three years. “While working there we recognized a lot of flaws and realized how we could run a company with better practices,” Selim Aslan said, “so we decided to start our own busiMen in Black Transportation: ness that would provide a cost-effective service.” The brothers work as a team with Umut handling the (858) 764-4467 or www. marketing and Selim, an SDSU (San Diego State Universi- mibtransportation.com ty) management student, doing the accounting and management. The owners are proud of their expanding fleet, which comprises seven luxury sedans, Lincoln Town Cars — including a new Lincoln MKZ – as well as Chrysler sedans, an SUV, and two Lincoln stretch limousines. Their largest stretch limousine (180 inches long) carries up to 14 passengers. Always seeking ways to improve their business, the Aslans are now in the process of upgrading their fleet by buying more fuel-efficient vehicles like the Lincoln MKZ sedan, which gets 28 mpg on the highway. “By summer, we would also like to buy a party bus that seats 26 people,” Aslan said. “A party bus will provide us with the ability to move larger groups of people to weddings, proms and special events. “We are very reliable and provide a 24/7 executive class service, and our rates are special,” Aslan added. “We recommend a 24-hour advance reservation for the airport, and passengers will be driven by a uniformed driver in a luxury car that is always well-maintained, washed and detailed before use.” Men in Black Transportation, 5595 Magnatron Blvd. D San Diego, (858) 764-4467, http://www.mibtransportation.com/Online-Reservation-System.html

Pacific Cielo Cosmetic Surgery Center offers new state-of-the-art procedures in RSF

With its introduction of new, state-ofthe-art cosmetic surgery procedures, Pacific Cielo has positioned itself as a leader in noninvasive and minimally invasive rejuvenation procedures. At Pacific Cielo, patients have access to alternative cosmetic surgery procedures, which provide both natural and instantaneous results with little to no downtime. For patients who choose to regain control over the signs of aging, and feel more confident and positive about their appearance, Pacific Cielo now introduces two revolutionary and advanced options for both the face and body: ReAction Skin Therapy, and fat transfer and grafting for advanced facial and body contouring and sculpting. Pacific Cielo’s patients fly in from all over the continental U.S. and abroad, and are amazed by the natural, effective and instantaneous results achieved with these new innovative anti-aging rejuvenation therapies. The natural and instantaneous aesthetic results achieved provide peace of mind to patients who fear unnatural results. Moreover, the innovative procedures provided by Pacific Cielo offer patients with limited time, the opportunity to reverse troublesome signs of aging during their lunch breaks, and return to their activities with minimal to zero downtime. The amazing results of these procedures speak for themselves, and many of Pacific Cielo’s patients are referred by previous patients. With permission, Pacific Cielo provides several before and after pictures on their website: www. PacificCielo.com. Beauty experts have noted that hollowing out of the face, sagging skin and cellulite, all contribute to an aging and tired appearance in otherwise healthy and active people. The new and innovative ReAction Skin Therapy, and fat transfer and grafting procedures introduced at Pacific Cielo, pro-

vide a multi-faceted approach to quickly and effectively eliminate these and other problems, with little to no downtime. The innovative ReAction device incorporates the use of RF (radiofrequency) technology plus vacuuming, to offer the latest evolution in skin tightening procedures. ReAction dramatically reduces facial and body sagging, cellulite, and a wide range of aesthetic irregularities due to weight fluctuations, hormonal changes, heredity, and aging. While, Pacific Cielo’s fat transfer and grafting procedures use the patient’s own fat to fill in hollows and irregularities in the face, and allow for targeted whole body contouring and sculpting. In addition to the innovative ReAction Skin Therapy, and fat transfer and grafting procedures, Pacific Cielo offers a spectrum of facial and body cosmetic procedures, including popular dermal fillers, wrinkle removing injectables, such as Botox, laser treatments, Microdermabrasion, medical-grade skin care, and facial peels. Pacific Cielo is a complete medical cosmetic rejuvenation center offering a wide array of treatments, including Liposculpture, lap band surgery, as well as ground-breaking medical rejuvenation procedures using PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injections. For a limited time and exclusively for the readers of the Rancho Santa Fe Review who mention this article when booking a procedure, Pacific Cielo is offering a 75 percent price good neighbor discount on designated procedures. Pacific Cielo is located in the heart of Cielo Village in Rancho Santa Fe at 18029 Calle Ambiente, Suite 507, Rancho Santa Fe, 92067. For more information, or to schedule a free personalized consultation to discuss how Pacific Cielo can help you look and feel your best, call Pacific Cielo’s staff today at (858) 756-5678.

Your Family Matters: When parents fight BY DR. KEITH KANNER When parents fight, kids suffer. Most become worried and anxious. This is certainly the case for 9-year-old Kaylee every time her parents get into a loud altercation in their home. The pattern is always the same. Her parents get into an ugly argument, call each other names, makes idle threats, and then go their separate ways for a range of hours to days. Kaylee then cries herself to sleep, worries about her parents getting a divorce, and then usually gets into some sort of trouble at school the next day.

Dr. Keith Kanner Her teacher, Mrs. T, an old soul with 30 years of teaching has identified the pattern and has developed a loving and caring rapport with Kaylee when such days manifest. Her teacher manag-

es to calm her down, keep her focused, and reassures her that she is loved and will be safe. Parent conferences begin next week and Mrs. T is planning on bringing up the pattern to Kaylee’s parents, but she has had numerous experiences of parents refusing to consider that their behavior has such traumatic effects on their children. Four-year-old Issac has a similar situation in his home. His parents yell and fight with one another almost all of the time and in front of him and his older brother, Tim. When this happens at the dinner table,

Easter Egg Hunt Saturday, April 7th 7:30am to 8:00am 16950 Via De Santa Fe Rancho Santa Fe, CA 92091 ph 858-756-3726 | fax 858-756-2560 Open 7 Days A Week 8am to 8pm | Home Delivery Service

Tim will often put his hands over his ears and eventually rescue Issac from the table by taking him upstairs to play some sort of game to get their minds off of their worries. But the play is only temporary. Tim believes the arguing is his fault for having ADD, and Issac consistently bed wets almost in sequence when his parent get into a fight. The effect of parental fighting in front of children at any age is traumatic and scary. As children from infancy through adolescence depend upon their parents for consistent security, protection, and guidance, parents who cannot manage their feelings leave their children in states of peril. The common conclusion that children make when they see their parents engage in fullcourt arguments is that the family is not a safe haven to rely upon during daily ups and downs that children experience at school and with their peers. Often times, due to extreme anxiety, children will then develop “symptoms” which are manifestations of their internal conflicts. In the example above, Kaylee’s symptom was difficulty in school, and Issac’s was wetting his bed. Although sad and indicative of a child suffering, the attentive parent can use these signs as wake

up calls to change themselves for the benefit of their children. One of the essential “jobs” of any parent is to be the “filing station” for their child. Here, as children and adolescents struggle, due to normal development, to manage their feelings and choices, they return to their parents on a daily basis verbally or non-verbally to “check in” or “re-fuel” to help them internalize coping mechanisms and good choices. This helps them mold their personalities and manage themselves. In healthy families, mothers and fathers consciously or unconsciously pick up on these cues from their children and respond to their kids in a consistent loving and guiding style, which soothes the child and helps them learn to manage themselves. When the parent or parents are “out of control” themselves, the child is left without that safe object or objects to rely upon in times of need and fears their own fate when experiencing stressful events. Our research indicates that parents who cannot manage their own emotions, tend to produce children who are the same. In other words, history repeats itself if the adult/parent does not attempt to shift their own ways of managing themselves in

the presence of their children. Irrespective of all of the years of schooling that children withstand over the years, the parents are the fundamental teachers of their children and remain so throughout adolescence and even into adulthood. Tips to Help Parents Calm Down: 1. Learn to manage your own anger better. 2. Think about your kids before you get into a fight with your partner 3. Be aware of how your behavior can hurt your child 4. Set good examples of how to deal with conflict 5. Always remember that home needs to be the safe/responsible haven 6. Get help if you can’t manage the conflicts yourself.

GAMES

ABUSE

continued from page B3 ing at each other with viciousness and cruelty. Which leads to my second point â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the unquestioned acceptance of shocking violence for sport. Panem et Circenses indeed. Imagine a world where bullies on the playground are unrestrained, with no adult guidance, a la Lord of the Flies. William Goldingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disturbing story of marooned boys becoming savages is believable because we can understand how young children might form packs and behave violently in a world where all adults, their rules and the constraints on behavior imposed by a civilized society, are removed. The Hunger Games is Lord of the Flies, except that adults are not repelled by the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actions but instead orchestrate the show for their perverse private viewing pleasure. The fact that Katniss is a young woman of inner strength, with cleverness and physical prowess thrown in, does not compensate for the unrelenting graphic descriptions of children forced to adopt the warped adult values that compel them to kill one another without contrition or mercy. Other childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Giver and Holes, for example â&#x20AC;&#x201C; present possible worlds that bring awareness to children of what might be and what we must do together as a society to prevent the disintegration of moral standards that keep us from destroying one another. Dystopian societies presented in literature â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like Margaret Atwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s The Handmaidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tale, Aldous Huxleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brave New World, or Anthony Burgessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s A Clockwork Orange â&#x20AC;&#x201C; do the same for adults. But The Hunger Games is a collapse of all things sane and real and is not for the hopeful or the squeamish. Should it be banned? Never. But it should be marked with red â&#x20AC;&#x153;dangerâ&#x20AC;? flags all over it. The Hunger Games presents a terrifying depiction of an implausible world of adults totally devoid of compassion and morality. Although the novel is classified as young adult literature, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not even sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m old enough to read it. Marsha Sutton can be reached at SuttComm@san.rr.com.

continued from page B3 ing injection drug users. Adolescents who use drugs have a higher risk of addiction than people who begin using them as adults, partly because the are of the teenage brain that controls impulses has not fully matured. Moreover, the younger the person is when drug use begins, the greater the likelihood of addiction. Adolescent substance abuse can lead to number of other significant problems. Users are more likely

to engage in risky behaviors such as unprotected sex or driving while under the influence. Drugs and alcohol can adversely affect nearly every part of the body. Alcohol and pills can cause depression, which can result in suicide. Sedatives can disrupt breathing, while stimulants can cause anxiety, heart attack or stroke. Both new and experienced users risk overdosing on heroinâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; whether it is snorted, smoked or injectedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; because it often mixed with sugar or other substances and the exact purity is unknown. How can you tell if your

child is using drugs or alcohol? Finding drug paraphernalia is an obvious sign of substance abuse, but many other warning signs mirror typical adolescent behavior, such as: â&#x20AC;˘Mood swings or depression â&#x20AC;˘Dishonesty and secretiveness â&#x20AC;˘Anger, irritability or defensiveness â&#x20AC;˘Short-term memory loss â&#x20AC;˘Money missing in the home â&#x20AC;˘Suspicious phone calls or seemingly nonsensical text messages â&#x20AC;˘Unexplained weight loss, red eyes, poor hygiene

â&#x20AC;˘Missing school or not coming home after school â&#x20AC;˘Associating with a new group of friends you barely know â&#x20AC;˘Trouble in school or with the police Often, warning signs go undetected for years. If parents are too quick to write off these behaviors as â&#x20AC;&#x153;normalâ&#x20AC;? without considering the possibility of a deeper problem, they may not realize their child has an addiction until it causes serious health, financial, or legal consequences. Even parents who do everything â&#x20AC;&#x153;rightâ&#x20AC;? cannot always prevent their children from being exposed to

drugs or alcohol at school, friendsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homes, parties and so on. If you suspect your child may have a problem, help is available. Talk to your physician or call the Scripps Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program at 858626-4300. Nancy Knott, M.A., is an interventionist and counselor with Scripps Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ofďŹ ce or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneďŹ ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made

available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trusteeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com, using the ďŹ le number assigned to this case CA-09-254338-ED. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reďŹ&#x201A;ected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneďŹ ciary within 10 days of the date of ďŹ rst publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.
