New owners share plans for The Inn at board meeting

At the RSF Association’s Annual Meeting, to be held Thursday, May 10, at 5 p.m. at the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club, the Association will present the Lily Award to two Association property owners. This prestigious prize honors Association members and their design teams who produce and/or maintain architecture and land improvements, which exemplify the “high artistic result” decreed by the Covenant. The awards will be presented to: •Marion Dodson for Historic Preservation of the Country Squire Courtyard, and •Patrick Rose for Historic Preservation of his residence on Linea del Cielo. The recipients were selected by the Lily Awards Committee which is made up of Association members. The award is named for Lilian Rice, Rancho Santa Fe’s first architect and building commissioner. In the years since the award’s inception in 1993, the Lily Award has served to present models of the community’s standards as well as recognize excellent design. The Country Squire Courtyard was built in 1923 and was designed by Rancho Santa Fe’s own Lilian Rice. It is a historic landmark in the heart of the Village area which features a distinctive treatment of arches. The owner has done a beautiful See LILY, page 28

BY KAREN BILLING The new owners of The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe presented their plans to the RSF Association board at its meeting on April 19. Escrow closed on the $28 million sale April 11 to new owners JMI Realty, owned by John Moores and John Kratzer, both Rancho Santa Fe residents. “We’re incredibly excited to be the new owners of The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe,” Kratzer said. “It’s a rare opportunity that your passion and profession bring you home and you’re able to work in your own backyard.” Krazter added that he even hopes his daughters get married on the The Inn’s front lawn. Kratzer said the Royce family, who owned The Inn since 1958, went through an extensive process over the last year and a half to fully vet all of the potential buyers. It wasn’t a case of selling to the bidder; they wanted to ensure that the buyers understood what an important community asset The Inn was and that it would be taken care of, Kratzer said. “We should all applaud them for the process they went through and for sticking to their guns,” Kratzer said. “It’s an honor to have been selected.” Eighty percent of JMI’s properties are hotel oriented and they were involved in the redevelopment of the Petco Park neighborhood. “We believe this is the most incredible community in America, we sincerely believe that,” said Kratzer, with a beautiful, sunny Rancho Santa Fe morning as his backdrop as the meeting was moved to the Association’s patio to accommodate about 15 member guests. “To have the opportunity to acquire a community asset like The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe in the best place in America to live is obviously very, very unique.” He said while some hotels might offer more rooms or a bigger spa, what no one else can offer is the Rancho Santa Fe community, the ability to walk through the village, visit the shops and eat at the local restaurants. “We view the physical position in the community and the relationship with the community as the most important amenity,” said Kratzer. Kratzer told the board they plan to make significant physical improvements to The Inn but until Sept. 1, the changes will be subtle. Phase one will include landscape clean-up, new flatware and linens, and new items in the rooms such as coffee makers. Starting Sept. 1, “the dust will start flying” as they completely renovate 60 rooms, expanding the size of the bathrooms and adding all new “FF&E” — furnishings, finishes and equipment. The new owners plan to make renovations on one building at a time and the fact that The Inn has 38 buildings scattered throughout the property is a benefit for this type

RSF Association board briefs April 19, meeting Portions of Paseo Delicias parking to be closed for curb painting San Diego County will be repainting the green curbs on Paseo Delicias on Tuesday, May 8, and Wednesday, May 9. On May 8, the curbs will be painted on the north side of Paseo Delicias and the east side of a couple of cross streets. They will be closed to parking. On May 9, the south side of Paseo and the west side of the other roads will be painted and closed to parking. Liens placed on delinquent Covenant properties Liens will be placed on seven Covenant properties that are delinquent on the first payment of 2011-12 assessments. The number is down significantly from March, when 39 property payments were delinquent, a credit to the RSF Association staff who made a “tremendous” effort to obtain the payments through letters, phone calls, certified mail and now liens, said Steve Comstock, RSF Association chief financial officer. The second assessment payments for 2011-12 were due on April 19 and Comstock said he expects those seven property owners to be delinquent on that payment, as well. Committee Policy update The RSF Association board April 19 approved several updates to its Committee Policy which establishes the procedures for committees and how appointments are made to standing committees. A question was raised by a member recently as to the practice of interviewing potential candidates for committees and the Art Jury in closed session. RSF Association Manager Pete Smith indicated that the selection process usually includes board interviews with candidates and an open decision of qualifications and the candidate’s thoughts on issues. Smith said the Association board has found that the interviews are better conducted in closed session for a more open exchange of ideas and to insure everyone’s privacy. Additionally, members tend to prefer a private discussion over an open meeting to discuss their positions on issues facing the community, according to Smith. The Association board said it has discussed this issue with Association counsel and feels the topic is appropriate for closed session. — Karen Billing

RSF resident achieves lifelong dream of becoming a successful — and prolific — author BY KAREN BILLING When Rancho Santa Fe author Jean Hart Stewart finally found the time to pursue her lifelong love of writing she filled the pages of nearly 25 books. The 60-year Rancho Santa Fe resident has written all of those books in the last eight years. Her novels are “a little fantasy and history and a lot of romance” and her latest is “Fiery Pursuit,” the third installment in a series of eight about a collection of passionate, erotic elves. After raising a family and working 20 years in the real estate business, she finally started writing. “One day I just walked in and quit. I wanted to write all those years,” Hart Stewart said. “I thought I’d write one or two, I never thought I’d be working on book 25. I feel pretty good about it.” Hart Stewart writes books in a series, following a family through multiple generations; one of her series goes from 1899 to present day. Her first series was on druids and her second on mages, which are like wizards. Eight years ago her first book was published, “Druid’s Daughter,” a paranormal historical romance. “I think I’m very, very lucky,” said Hart Stewart, a mother of two. “I don’t think very many people of any age have as interesting a profession [as I do].” All of her books are historical, which involves a lot of research to

Jean Hart Stewart Photo/Karen Billing make sure every detail of the time period is accurate from hairstyles to the language used. She makes up character charts for each of her characters. “I want to know what they look like, talk like and their faults,” Hart Stewart. “They all have to have faults or else they aren’t interesting.” With her latest series, she is taking on a new genre. “My editor told me I could make more money if I wrote erotica,” Hart Stewart said. “My first month’s check from my first erotica was six times

what I received for any other book.” Her erotica series is based on “tall handsome elves with pointed ears.” While she said erotica is a lot more difficult to write, she also really enjoys it. On average, it takes her two months to complete her first draft, working in one of two work stations she has in her home — one in a cozy nook in front of a fully stocked bookshelf with views of her backyard. The stories flow pretty easily for Hart Stewart and she likes to keep herself busy, especially after her husband died a year and a half ago. She describes the editing process as a “rat race” and it’s possible she’s working on different stages of several books at a time. Hart Stewart also keeps up her website and is on Facebook and Twitter to keep in touch with her readers. “I got one comment from a woman who just discovered me and she wrote, ‘I’m going to read everything you’ve ever written,’” Hart Stewart said, noting the positive feedback is always great to hear. She hopes to finish this latest series, but hasn’t thought beyond that to what she’ll write next. “It’s a lot of fun, it really is. You can think a character up in your head and make him a person,” Hart Stewart said. Find Jean Hart Stewart’s books at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble or through her website: www.jeanhartstewart.com.

The Encinitas Sheriff’s Department recently sent out a letter to San Dieguito Union High School District parents notifying them that the Sheriff’s Department has received several calls recently involving teen parties being held in vacant homes. The notification read as follows: “In recent weeks the Sheriff’s Department has responded to calls for service involving large teen parties. The parties are located in vacant homes. These parties involve underage drinking and drug use. Two of the parties involved more than 200 teens and when deputies arrived, they scattered which caused a grave concern for the community and the welfare of the teenagers, many of whom were driving cars. “The Sheriff’s Department would like to make you aware of this activity and they are enlisting your help in keeping our teenagers and the community safe from underage drinking and driving, alcohol and drug use, and all of the associated crime and activity. “They are diligently working to prevent a recurrence of these types of parties

which have also included huge financial losses for the home owners as a result of vandalism and theft to the properties themselves. “The Sherriff’s Department will be enforcing all laws applicable in these situations. Those laws include curfew, Social Host ordinances, driving under the influence, burglary, vandalism, and drug laws. “They are seeking your help and ask that you notify the Sheriff’s Department if you or your child have any information regarding an upcoming party. That information would include the location, the organizers, and any adults who are providing alcohol. You can call the Encinitas Sheriff’s Stations at 760-966-3500 or contact the Sheriff’s Department anonymously at the Tip Hotline on our web page. https://www. tipsubmit.com/webtips.aspx?agencyID=409 “Thank you for your help in keeping our communities and children safe.

During UCSD visit, Dalai Lama says science and religion not incompatible in curbing global warming BY PAT SHERMAN His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama was in good spirits during a visit to UC San Diego April 18, where he frequently told jokes, chuckled and even gave UCSD Chancellor Marye Anne Fox an affectionate head-butt. The spiritual head of Tibetan Buddhism was at UCSD to discuss climate change before heading to the University of San Diego to talk about cultivating peace through justice. Both events were sold out, as was an address at San Diego State University on April 19. Opening the event at RIMAC Arena, eBay founder and chairman Pierre Omidyar noted that the Dalai Lama has previously stated his belief that when scientific facts contradict Buddhist beliefs, “those beliefs must be discarded.” A 1989 Nobel Peace Prize winner, the Dalai Lama was discussing climate change with UCSD professors Veerabhadran Ramanathan and Richard Somerville. During his opening remarks, Somerville said the Earth’s climate has always changed from natural causes. What is different today, he said, is that human activities have become the dominant factor. “Our generation today now controls what the climate will be for our children and grandchildren,” Somerville said. “We did not seek this power but we have it because we have long used the atmosphere as a free dump for the side effects and waste products of human activities. “The case for urgency” in dealing with climate change is “scientific, not ideological or political,” Somerville said. Ramanathan began by offering a “scientific message of hope.” “There is a practical and proven way to slow down global warming considerably in our lifetime,” he said. “In fact, we can cut down expected warming over the coming decades by almost half and thus slow down the melting of the glaciers and snow packs, particularly in the Tibetan gla-

The Dalai Lama stressed the importance of nations setting aside “national economic interest” and coming together with the “full force of cooperation” to slow global warming. “The world belongs to humanity,” said the 76-year-old spiritual leader, who sported a UCSD Titans visor for the discussion. “America belongs to the people … not to Republicans or Democrats.” Climate change, said the Dalai Lama, “is a question of our life, our survival. … This is something, very, very serious.” While the toll war and violence takes on humanity is evident through widespread imagery, climate pollution is

The future of the planet depends on the “oneness of humanity,” said. Somerville called for educating political leaders on the problem of global warming, though adding, “I am optimistic about what technology can do, (but) guardedly optimistic” about what politics can do to solve the problem.

On Friday, May 4, guests are invited to join the Foundation for Margaritas, Fiesta Food, and Lively Music at Barn W of the Del Mar Fairgrounds. The event will get underway at 6:30 p.m, following the Olympic Show Jumping Observation Event. Robin Parsky, USET Foundation trustee and co-chair of the Development Committee, will be chairing the event with her husband Gerry Parsky. “We often host USET Foundation Fundraisers in California, so we were looking for this opportunity to support the team, and this is perfect timing,” she explained. “We will be inviting the exhibitors, horse owners, and USET Gold Medal Members from the West Coast. The Del Mar National is the largest and most prestigious show in California, so this is a great opportunity for us to get together and help raise money for the team.” “It’s the weekend of Cinco de Mayo, and we are close to the border, so we decided to make it a really fun event with margaritas and taco stations,” continued Parsky. “It will be held in a great barn close to the jumping arena. There will be a DJ and it will all be decorated in fiesta style.” In addition to the Parskys, the organizing committee includes Pam and Bob Buie,

Larry Rosen, Ph.D.

Proﬁle

Accomplished professor addresses growing problem in new book ‘iDisorder: Understanding our Obsession with Technology and Overcoming Its Hold on Us’ BY KATHY DAY Larry Rosen admits he’s a geek – and that he’s obsessed with technology. So, he says, he’s a perfect person to write a book about how technology affects our daily lives. His latest, “iDisorder,” offer tips on how to keep using those iPads, smart phones, computers and any of the other latest “toys” without letting them take over your life. The local resident has been teaching at Cal State Dominguez Hills for 37 years. He currently teaches the Global Impact of Technology, a psychology class, two days a week to classes of 350 to 500 students in the campus theater and wouldn’t change the commute or the size of his classes for anything, he said. “I will never retire. I love teaching … I can clip on a microphone and be a showman.” He majored in math at UCLA but decided two and a half years in that he didn’t want to be a math major. He went on to earn a Ph.D. in

psychology at UCSD. It’s easy to picture him in front of his students, an easygoing style and sense of humor. Wearing his Jon Stewart T-shirt, he says one of his goals is to get on the “Daily Show” – really, he says. Perhaps to make a point that the TV star might pick up on, he adds, “There’s a ‘Daily Show’ effect – teenagers these days are getting their news from Jon Stewart.” He’s studied that effect, and lots of others. Including the phenomenon he calls iDisorder: “Changes to your brain’s ability to process information and your ability to relate to the world due to your daily use of media and technology resulting in signs and symptoms of psychological disorders – such as stress, sleeplessness, and a compulsive need to check in with all of your technology.” He started the book with a scene in a movie theater: At the last second everyone turns “off” their cell phones. Then, in the middle, you see people surreptitiously looking to see what

Quick Facts Name: Larry Rosen, Ph.D. Distinction: Has won the most awards for a professor at Cal State Dominguez Hills, including Outstanding Professor twice, Teacher of the Year and Researcher of the Year. Family: Girlfriend Vicki, sons Adam, 37 (who just had a baby girl named Grayson) and Christopher, 24; daughters Arielle, 34, and Kaylee, 21; cat Ashley, 20. Interests: Technology, obviously: cooking anything and everything, rock music. Movies: “I see at least 50 films a year, not counting TV movies.” Goes to several film festivals a year — used to go to Sundance, but now Palm Springs. Enjoys everything from “kick-ass, run-and-gun, shoot-em-up” films to chick flicks and animated movies. (Very glad I have a grandchild now so I can watch more!)” Reading: “I read voraciously … hardly anything I don’t like.” Right now reading international intrigue – favorites are Robert Ludlum, Clive Cussler, John Maxim. Likes “paper books” and keeps the library busy. Still a “bit of a purist – I read newspapers” as well as news online. Favorite getaway: Mumbai, as well as San Diego, Portland and New York City. Philosophy: “Do what you like, like what you do” – it’s from a clothing line.

they’ve missed. At the end, everyone turns their phones back on. Kind of like when the plane lands on the runway, he added. As he sat in the living room of his home, he furtively glanced at his iPhone from time to time, resisting the urge to check his latest updates. Later, as the conversation shifted gears, he looked and found only 18 emails in the 45 or so minutes that had passed. And he laughed when talking about forgetting which pocket his phone was in – and about people who accidently leave for work without them. “Research shows most people will drive home to get it,” he said. “It’s an incredible compulsion.” He calls the newest book an update of his first, “TechnoStress: Coping with Technology @Work @Home @Play.” In between, he’s written a book for teachers to help them understand how the iGeneration learns and one for parents to help them grasp how their children use the Internet. He also writes for The National Psychologist and blogs for Psychology Today. Rosen, 62, first became interested in computers as a little boy, noting that when his parents – mom taught high school math and dad was an accountant — took him to a college day at UCLA, he went directly to the computer lab and hung out there. “I write about stuff because it’s about me – covertly or overtly,” he said. “I sleep with my phone next to me and play Words with Friends – that’s becoming compulsive.” For those like him who can’t “drop their technology,” he said it’s important to develop strategies to deal with the effects of being constantly connected. “We are all overloading in a variety of ways, which is not our fault,” he said. “It’s not about giving up your iPhone for Lent. It’s about moderation in smart ways.” His writing is based on extensive research. He’s unusual among state university professors, he noted, in that he runs a lab on campus,

utilizing undergrads as researchers. Currently there’s a team of four faculty members and about 10 students. “I have a low boredom threshold,” he said with a chuckle. “We usually have five to 10 projects going on and can start a new one any time. They’ve looked at how Facebook is used, texting and are now studying sleep disorders. He said it seems that using your cell phone an hour before you go to sleep has the biggest impact. “It doesn’t matter the content, it’s the phone,” he said, adding that laptops and tablets don’t seem to have the same impact. He said that it’s important to understand how the brain works when considering the impacts of technology. “If we peered inside and saw the switching going on – ding, it’s an email, what was that – the brain is being constantly bombarded,” he said. “We have to learn how to reset the brain.” With a background in parent education and child and adolescent development, he travels extensively, giving lectures around the world – most recently in Mumbai, India, and is headed for Washington, D.C., in May and Australia in June. While his book offers a number of ways to tackle the problem, he suggested a couple of simple solutions for when your brain gets overloaded: •Take a 15-minute break. Walk outside – and don’t take the phone. •Look at a nature book – not at nature photos online. •Take an e-waiting period. We jot things down electronically without thinking. Let it rest before you post to Facebook or send the e-mail, so your brain can calm down and you can take a look at what you wrote in a different light. •Take a warm bath, play an instrument or listen to music – but only “beautiful” music.” Look at art you consider pretty. •Have a conversation with someone else. For teachers and others in group settings – or even at dinner — where constant use of cell phones gets in the way of being focused, he

Larry Rosen recommends what he calls “tech breaks.” Everyone turns their phones face down and puts them on silent. Then after a certain period – say 15 or 18 minutes of lecture – everyone gets one minute to check their phone. Teachers, he added, can lengthen the time to 30 minutes and can use the breaks as a reward by allowing two minutes or selecting a student to be the one who monitors when the breaks are given. The twice-divorced father of four calls himself “a parent trainer at heart” and notes that it’s important to set clear behavioral objectives and reinforce the lessons. He has found other uses for technology – combining it with old rock ‘n’ roll LPs to make art works with bits and pieces of outdated computers and phones. But he uses the current “toys” to stay in touch with his “four amazing, successful kids.” With the older ones — Adam, 37, and Arielle, 34 —

he most often talks on the phone. With Christopher, 24, technology is a lifeline in a special way. Now living in New Jersey and working with Johnson & Johnson, Christopher is deaf so instant messaging has been a great way to communicate, although they also use a phone “translation” service. And with his youngest, Kaylee, a senior at Yale, it’s text messaging that keeps them connected. He blames Steve Jobs for a lot of the stress that comes with constantly being tied to technology. “Darn him,” he said. “He made some of the best technology and made it all so compelling.” Acknowledging that he’s “hooked up” about 18 hours a day, he said, “I understand what it does to me, but I’m not giving it up.” ‘iDisorder’ is available at Barnes & Noble in stores, online: Amazon.com in hardcover or ebook.

The ClearChoice team of specialists provides 21st century solutions to people struggling with dentures or bad teeth.

WHY SUFFER WITH DENTURES? For centuries, removable false teeth, or dentures, have been used to replace missing teeth. But denture-wearers report that many undesirable side effects come along with this less-than-ideal solution: Dentures are uncomfortable to wear and often slip or click; they can cause bad breath, and require ongoing and inconvenient maintenance; they often result in a weak bite, a fake-looking smile DQG DQ RYHUO\ DFWLYH JDJJLQJ UHĂ&#x20AC; H[ Care and comfort aside, those with dentures also are prevented from eating many of the foods and participating in many of the activities they enjoy. With todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s science, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s simply no reason for anyone to struggle with dentures. In fact, many of the problems denture wearers struggle with can be solved in just one day* with the help of your ClearChoice team of dental implant professionals.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

‘Hyper-focused’ bestselling author revisits popular character from ‘Gone Baby Gone’ Editor’s Note: Award-winning writer Dennis Lehane was the guest speaker at the April 19 luncheon of the Rancho Santa Fe Literary Society at The Grand Del Mar. He is the author of nine novels, including “Mystic River,” “Gone Baby Gone” and “Shutter Island.” The annual six-event luncheon series is sponsored by Northern Trust, the RSF Literary Society, the RSF Community Center and this newspaper. The next luncheon on Friday, May 18, will feature writer Simon Sebag Montefiore and his book “Jerusalem.”

BY JOE TASH Patrick Kenzie isn’t the toughest or bravest private detective — he once admitted that “circus dwarfs could kick my ass.” Kenzie — the fictional creation of writer Dennis Lehane — never served in the U.S. Special Forces or learned martial arts. But the hard-boiled private eye does have one defining characteristic — he never backs down. “If you give your word, the inability to break your word is to me a heroic quality, even if it means it’s going to bring pain in other aspects of your life,” said Lehane. “I’d like to think there were more people in the world whose word was their bond.” Lehane, the author of nine novels including “Gone Baby Gone,” “Mystic River” and “Shutter Island,” the latter three of which were made into feature films, spoke Thursday, April 19, to the Rancho Santa Fe Literary Society at the Grand Del Mar resort in Carmel Valley. Before his talk, he granted an interview to this newspaper in the library off the resort’s lobby. Lehane splits his time between Boston and Florida’s Gulf Coast. He and his wife, Angie, have two daughters, a 3-year-old and an infant born in March. Lehane — like his character, Kenzie — was born in Dorchester, a working class section of Boston. As he struggled to become a full-time writer, Lehane worked a series of jobs ranging from counselor for mentally handicapped and abused children, to waiting on tables, driving limos, clerking in a bookstore and loading tractortrailers, according to his bio. Lehane’s short hair was specked with gray, and several days’ growth of beard stubbled his cheeks. He wore a sport coat over a dark T-shirt, and his speech bore the accent of his Boston roots. His latest novel, “Moonlight Mile,” is a sequel of sorts

Kenzie and Gennaro. After “Gone Baby Gone,” Lehane said Patrick Kenzie “stopped talking to me for 11 years.” When Kenzie began “chatting” with him a few years back, Lehane said, he realized the new novel would allow him to write about the financial meltdown that began in 2008, and the difficult times faces by working Americans. Along with his novels, Lehane has written for the television show, “The Wire.” He said that when he decided to become a writer, he felt he could not allow himself to fail, because he would not be able to face his friends and family. “I was so hyper-focused. I knew there was no way back. If I missed, I was gonna land with one hell of a thud,” he said. Author Dennis Lehane with chapter coordinator Kelly Colvard.

RSF’s Lauren Reynolds serves as Master of Ceremonies at Jacobs Medical Center groundbreaking More than 200 San Diegans turned out recently to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Jacobs Medical Center, a new 245-room facility that will house three new specialty hospitals: the Hospital for Cancer Care, the Hospital for Advanced Surgery and the Hospital for Women and Infants. Named for benefactors Joan and Irwin Jacobs, who donated $75 million to the project, the Jacobs Medical Center will have private rooms, interactive technology, and will serve as a bridge between research being carried out at UC San Diego and bedside hospital care. RSF resident Lauren Reynolds, president and CEO of At Home Care Solution (www. thecaresolution.com), the leading provider of in home care across San Diego, served as Master of Ceremonies. She is an active member of the Alumni Association and graduated from UC San Diego in 1994. “I am so proud of my alma mater,” Reynolds remarked, “…it’s growth and reach, it’s impact on our health care, our economy and quality of life. And it’s vision for the future, which brings us to this celebration today.” Marye Anne Fox, UCSD chancellor, noted, “In addition to having state of the art equipment and facilities, [The Jacobs Medical Center] has also been designed to be patient-focused.” The center will utilize wireless health, portable medical records and other innovations. Dean David Brenner, vice chancellor for Health Sciences and the Dean of the School of Medicine remarked that when the center opens in 2016, “We will extend the reach of the Moores Cancer Center to in-patient care, given new hope to people who need it most.” Cancer is the leading cause of death in

San Diego, the goal of the center is to improve outcomes, reduce recovery times and to draw on the latest medical breakthroughs happening on the UC San Diego campus. “Care will be highly personalized, delivered with extraordinary precision based on a person’s genotype and unique set of environmental influences”, Brenner added. Irwin Jacobs and his wife Joan joined Carol Vassiliadis, who donated to a wing of the hospital, Congressman Bob Filner, Mayor Jerry Sanders, Dr. Brenner, and Interim UC San Diego Health System CEO Thomas V. McAfee in shoveling the first ceremonial dig of the project. Jacobs commented that when he first arrived at UC San Diego in the 1960s, before he launched Qualcomm, there were only a handful of buildings. At that time, they were celebrating the construction of the one and only engineering building. He remarked that the growth on the La Jolla campus is extraordinary and joked that he and his wife plan to be around when the Medical Center bearing their name opens its doors in 2016.

Local resident provides unique perspective in book ‘A Scientist’s God’ BY KATHY DAY Jerzy Lewak took a while getting to writing his book, “A Scientist’s God,” which he says gives undeniable proof of the existence of God and spirituality. In fact, it took 55 years for the seeds planted in college in 1957 to grow into the 100-page Kindle book. The 73-year-old local resident, who has more than 50 years of experience in theoretical physics, electrical engineering and computer sciences, was raised a Catholic and still attends services. “I believe very strongly … but I don’t agree on many points,” he said. “Spirituality is more important than religion.” It was his scientific background and discussions while in college in England that first focused his thoughts on God and spirituality. “Discussions with others convinced me then that most do not see things the way I do,” he said. More recently, he considered inadequate “publications of declarations and reasonings by

Where to obtain Lewak’s book “A Scientist’s God: New Arguments for the Existence of God and Our Soul. A scientist’s personal exploration.” Published as a Kindle book, it may be borrowed or purchased for $9.99 at the Amazon Kindle store. Web and blog page:ascientistsgod.com. Note: Lewak hasn’t blogged much, he says, because he’s been busy with other activities. some atheistic scientists and the published arguments against such atheistic arguments by other scientists.” Lewak, who joined the faculty at UCSD in 1966 and took early retirement in 1991 from his post in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, is all about science — from teaching it to starting two software companies and having “about 10 patents, several more pending and to be written.” His companies include Nisus Software, which he started in 1984 about the time the first Mac computers hit the street. Nisus was the “first windows software,” made to be used on IBM personal computers, he

said. “We were trying to get into educational software because it was so bad,” he recalled. The second company, also still in existence, is SpeedTrack, a company working on a way “for all users of databases to navigate through data to the contained information.” And while he’s still involved with both companies and his many new discoveries, he said, the recent spurt of writings by Richard Dawkins and Nobel Laureate Herbert A. Hauptmann “who deride with disdain and ridicule a belief in God and our spiritual nature” fired up his desire to set the record straight, he wrote in

a press release about his book. His aim is to help people understand how science, the belief in God and “our spiritual nature,” are compatible, he said. “One example is the proof of our spiritual nature — the fact that we are not just machines, as many scientists seem to treat us,” he wrote in an e-mail, outlining the details of his writing. “The fact that our subjectivity, the experiences we have and are conscious of, cannot be a material property because they cannot be detected objectively. “We must distinguish between objective truth and subjective truth. The foundations of all objective studies is physics. It deals only with matter and its properties. Any property of matter must be physically detectable and measurable using physical instruments. Detection of any property of matter cannot rely only on statements made by, or reactions of humans.” The Polish-born scientist, who was deported by

Jerzy Lewak the Soviets to Kazakhstan, then escaped to Teheran and went to Tanzania before being educated in England, goes into a lengthy discussion about how he reaches his conclusion, summarizing by saying, “All our subjectivity, all our individual experiences, are non-material so I call them spiritual.” He also argues that “believers and disbelievers are really both believers in a creator of all reality, but believers claim it is an intelligent, purposeful and all powerful creator God, whereas disbelievers claim, often only by implication, that it is an unintelligent, purposeless, dumb ‘machine.’ Both tenets are based on belief.” Continuing that thought, he said, “The book points out that believers in God can answer our impor-

tant subjective questions and millions of otherwise unexplained human experiences, whereas believers in a dumb machine do not have a chance.” Part of the book focuses on “out-of-body experiences,” another topic that Lewak has studied in depth. “There’s no credible evidence I’ve been able to find that contradicts the reality of the out-of-body experience,” he noted. “If there is anything, I would be willing to read it.” When he’s not trying to prove the existence of God and spirituality, Lewak likes to solve problems in software engineering. But he’s also active outdoors, as well, enjoying cycling and daily bodysurfing — without a wetsuit and unless it’s been raining. He also likes reading and puzzles — “but only puzzles that are real. I stop myself from puzzles that the only satisfaction is that I solved it.”

Canyon Crest Academy wins 2012 North County Academic League Championship After two years of being the “bridesmaid” at the North County Academic League championships, Canyon Crest Academy came out on top last week over host and rival Torrey Pines High School, earning the right to represent North County at the San Diego County finals on Thursday, April 26 (after presstime for this newspaper). Canyon Crest Academy pulled out to a seemingly insurmountable 46-0 lead in the first eight minutes of the 35-minute match. The Ravens’ correctly answered the first seven toss-up questions that were buzzed in on, with captain Anthony Tokman answering the first three. But defending champion Torrey Pines, which dealt the Ravens their only loss in a nail-biter during the regular season, can never be counted out. The Falcons clawed back to within five points, 88-83, with seven minutes remaining. That would be as close as Torrey Pines would get, however, as CCA got back on track and went on to win the championship battle, 125-94. Torrey Pines and CCA are both in the San Dieguito Union High School District. Ravens Coach Brian Shay will next take his team to the ITV (channel 16) studios in San Diego to participate in the county championships for the first time in school history April 26. Canyon Crest will face off against the champions of the City, Grossmont, and Sweetwater leagues. The Ravens’ semifinal match will air live at 5 p.m. If victorious, CCA will play in the title match at 7 p.m. The North County Academic League playoffs involved the top two finishers from its four divisions. Canyon Crest’s road to the league championship began with a firstround victory, 176-60, over Inland Division winner, Rancho Bernardo. The Ravens, runner-up in the Coast Division, went on to defeat the North Division champ, Rancho Buena Vista, 136-70, in their semifinal. The Longhorns had downed Valley Division runner-up, Fallbrook, 99-58, in the first round. Torrey Pines, winner of the Coast Divi-

sion, earned its place at the championship table by first defeating North runner-up Carlsbad, 121-77. The Falcons went on to beat Westview, the Inland Division second place finisher, 138-75, in their semifinal match. The Wolverines had defeated Valley champ, Escondido, 103-63, in the first round. Junior varsity and freshman Canyon Crest Academy also won the junior varsity championship, while Westview took the Freshman title in the tournaments held at Rancho Bernardo High School last week. For the NCAL junior varsity and freshman playoffs, the winners of each of the four divisions squared off. In the junior varsity title match, CCA, representing the Coast Division, defeated Rancho Buena Vista of the North Division, 79-54, in a battle that was neck-and-neck until the final minutes of the 30-minute match. The Longhorns were within striking distance, 64-55, with four minutes left, but the Ravens never let up. In the junior varsity semi-finals, RBV defeated Valley Center, of the Valley Division, 95-15, while CCA beat the Inland Division’s Rancho Bernardo, 114-56. Westview’s freshman team held off Canyon Crest, 81-69, to win its championship. The Wolverines got out to a quick, big lead, but the Ravens had fought back to tie the score at 43 with eight minutes remaining in the 25-minute match. Coast Division champ CCA went on to forge a 60-56 lead before Westview, of the Inland Division, turned the tables and went on to victory. In the first round of the freshman tourney, Westview beat the North’s Carlsbad, 8323, and CCA downed the Valley’s Escondido Charter, 79-14. The North County Academic League consists of 27 public and private high schools.

Village Church Community theater cast in ﬁnal rehearsals for ‘The Velveteen Rabbit’

TPHS alum ‘brings Paris to you’ with free concert series BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

Torrey Pines High School alumnus Zachary Deak, 25, has been studying piano in Europe since he left Solana Beach at 18, and now he has returned to share what he’s learned with his homeland. “I’ve played in Europe, at the Chamber Music Fest in Portugal, I’ve played London, Paris, all over France really,” said Deak. “It’s difficult studying so far from home, but it’s nice to come back here and share that, bring back what I’ve learned and let people participate.” Deak is putting on a four-part music series called “From Paris to You,” and he is literally doing just that. He Zachary Deak already played the first show of the series, sponsored by the FanFaire Foundation, in Point Loma on April 15, and he said it was so much of a success that he looks forward to his three next shows: April 24 in Carlsbad, April 28 in Rancho Santa Fe and April 29 in La Jolla. The Rancho Santa Fe concert is free and will be held at 2 p.m. at the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club, located at 17025 Avenida de Acacias. To make the concert even more special for Deak, he will be performing with his girlfriend of three years, violist Virginie d’Avezac de Castera. Deak and Bordeaux-born Castera have put together a diverse program of music, from Baroque to the 20th century. The two both started their musical careers at age 5. Deak began studying piano as an Encinitas preschooler, and later got his first taste of France when his family spent a year there a little over a decade ago. “When I was 14 my dad took a sabbatical, and we went

as a family to Paris to live for a year,” Deak said. “Because of that, I got a taste of the musical world in Europe and in Paris, especially. There was so much going on there and I fell in love with it.” Deak said he also met a very influential teacher, who he returned to study under later. The FanFaire Foundation, which is responsible for the production, is a nonprofit public charity organization created in reaction to the deteriorating state of music and science education, according to the organizaVirginie d’Avezac de Castera tion’s website. Deak said he is happy to put on a concert with FanFaire because it’s important to expose the public, especially kids, to the world of classical music. “So many people I’ve met, even those with no real connection to classical music, come up to me after a concert and say how much they enjoyed it. It’s universal,” said Deak. “If someone can just get there and see it, a concert can really can change lives, in terms of beauty or pleasure. It’s one of the great art forms … No matter what your level of interest is, you can’t come to classical music show and not feel something.” For more information and to see a video of Deak’s recent “From Paris to You” performance in Point Loma, visit www.fanfairefoundation.org. Contact Ev Laserna at 760-6661810 for more information.

Costumes are being completed, lines have been memorized, the stage set has been built and is in the final stages of painting as the Village Church Community Theater cast rehearses and prepares for their performances of “The Velveteen Rabbit” on Friday, May 4 at 7 p.m., Saturday, May 5, at 2 and 5 p.m. and Sunday, May 6, at 2 p.m. at the Village Church, 6225 Paseo Delicias, Rancho Santa Fe. Preferred seats can be reserved in advance Performers Rachel Waite and Holley for $10, at www. Kinnear. Photo courtesy Wolfgang Bluhm villagechurchcommunityhtheater.org or (858)756-2441. General seating is free. “The Velveteen Rabbit” play is based on the classic story by Margery Williams about a stuffed rabbit a child receives for Christmas but is quickly discarded in a few hours. Later, when the child cannot find her favorite toy to cuddle in bed, the Velveteen Rabbit takes that place and becomes much loved by her. However, once the Velveteen Rabbit hears about becoming “real”, that his it’s greatest wish. When the Toy Fairy offers the chance to be a real rabbit, a choice must be made. How will he choose? The wonderful and surprising power of love makes “The Velveteen Rabbit” a favorite for all ages.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Local residentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s invention â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Wispâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; addresses the problem of bunker sand on the golf course green BY KAREN BILLING Local resident Eben Dobson, who is on a mission to educate the world of golf, is asking players to pitch in and lend a hand with the everyday maintenance of golf courses. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s invented a new golf course tool called The Wisp, a universal solution to the problem of bunker sand on the green. Dobson, a financial advisor turned entrepreneur, believes that his Wisp, a lightweight, 4-foot-tall push broom, will clear the way for a new golf course etiquette. Sand out of the bunker is an impediment to the next player who comes through and there has never been a methodical solution. Some players may use a hat or a towel to remove sand out of their own line of putt, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help the person that comes after them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My theory is that if you hit sand out of the bunker, use a Wisp so the next player wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to deal with it,â&#x20AC;? Dobson said. Using the Wisp means that the course is the same for everyone, keeping the game fair so the first group through in the morning encounters the same conditions as the last foursome. Local golfers may have seen Wisps at the Lomas Santa Fe Country Club. Dobson has also seen his Wisps implemented at Wilshire Country Club in Los Angeles. His dream is not so much to turn on the Masters Golf Tournament one day and see a pro Wisping the green at Augustaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;rather, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to be driving by his local municipal course and see an Average Joe golfer using his etiquette because he recognized the benefit of it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a paradigm change,â&#x20AC;? Dobson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Adding something to the history of the game that hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been thought about.â&#x20AC;? Dobson spent months designing the specific bristle that accomplishes what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trying to do. The Wisp was specifically built to handle the different major grasses used on courses. It wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t harm the grass and,

The Wisp is a new golf course etiquette tool designed by local resident Eben Dobson. Courtesy photo in fact, mimics the practice of â&#x20AC;&#x153;topdressing,â&#x20AC;? in which course superintendents apply a mixture of sand and fertilizer to the greens to quicken healing or growth. The Wisp drops sand into the canopy so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually good for the green. Dobson said he knew it would be challenging to sell a product that wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t benefit the consumer directlyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an etiquette tool. He hopes people will be knocking on doors of course superintendents and golf pros to ask for Wisps at their club or home course. He said he thinks it could be the kind of tool that could be found on any course, just like a bunker rake. The Wisps could be on every greenside bunker, about one to two a hole. Of course, the Wisp wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be effective unless everyone learns and understands the etiquette of leaving something better for someone else. And Dobson says that plays right into what golf is about, a game that prides itself on maintaining core values, respect and integrity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Course care etiquette needs to be revitalized and the Wisp is just one of the things that can be used as a platform to re-energize a lost values system,â&#x20AC;? Dobson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so easy to respect the course, do it right and take care of it.â&#x20AC;? To learn more, visit www.thewisp.com.

April 26, 2012

RSF Senior Scene: Expert to speak on ‘Healthy Local educators to receive Crystal Apple awards; Brain Research: Boosting Your Memory’ RSF School’s David Warner among honorees BY TERRIE LITWIN, RSF SENIOR CENTER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR According to the National Institute of Health and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, the brain is the most complex part of the Terrie Litwin human body. Although it makes up only 2 percent of our body weight, it consumes 20 percent of the oxygen we breathe and 20 percent of the energy we consume. This enormous consumption of oxygen and energy fuels many thousands of chemical reactions in the brain every second. These chemical reactions underlie the actions and behaviors we use to respond to our environment. In short, the brain dictates the behaviors that allow us to survive. Scientists have worked for many years to unravel the complex workings of the brain. During the past decade alone, scientific and technical progress in all fields of brain research has been astonishing. Using new imaging techniques, scientists can visualize the human brain in action. Images produced by these techniques have defined brain regions responsible for attention, memory, and emotion. A series of discoveries (in multiple fields of study) has displaced the longstanding assumption that brain cells are stable and unchanging. New findings show that some adult brain cells can divide and grow! In addition, advances in research are allowing scientists to analyze and make

progress toward understanding the causes of inherited brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Taken together, these discoveries provide hope for the recovery of nervous system function lost through injury or disease. Research continues to bring new insights into how the brain is put together, how it works, and whether damage to the brain can be reversed. Please join us at the Senior Center on Wednesday, May 2, at 2 p.m. for “Healthy Brain Research: Boosting Your Memory,” presented by Dr. Aboo Nasar, MD. Dr. Nasar will discuss the most current information in healthy brain research and dementia prevention. Topics will include evidence-based management protocol to optimize brain function, boost memory, and improve overall health and wellness. Dr. Nasar will also discuss Brain Derived Neurotopic Factor and how it can help in generating brain tissue which governs memory storage and emotions. Dr. Nasar is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, Geriatrics, and Anti-Aging medicine. His is a practicing Internist and Geriatrician with Senior Medical Associates, a multi-specialty group in San Diego. Please call the Senior Center at (858)756-3041 to reserve your space. Upcoming events: • Fitness class with licensed physical therapist Jim Prussack, Monday mornings, 10:45 a.m. at the RSF Senior Center, $5 per class, paid to instructor. Reservations are not required. • Music appreciation: Monday, May 7; Monday, May 21, 2-4 p.m. at the RSF Senior Center. Reservations are not required.

The 19th Annual Crystal Apple Awards winners have been announced: Simeon Greenstein (Social Science/History) Torrey Pines High School; James Teague (Spanish) La Costa Canyon High School; David Main (Science/Biology) Canyon Crest Academy; John Oly Norris (Social Science) San Dieguito Academy; Kasey Galik (PE) Carmel Valley Middle School; Robert Shockney (History) Diegueno Middle School; Celia Walsh (Sciences) Oak Crest Middle School; Ann Cerny (History) Earl Warren Middle School; David Warner (Science) Rancho Santa Fe School; and Ted Williamson, who will be receiving a special award, is a tutor from Sunset High School. The nominations come from almost 200 students who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The students each choose a favorite educator, then write and submit a recommendation letter, which often conveys their gratitude to a particular teacher for taking the time to reach out to them individually. Choosing one winner for each school in the district is often difficult because there are dozens of inspiring educators chosen by the students. The San Dieguito School District is served by many diligent, funny, intuitive, mentor/ educators who will each receive a copy of their nomination even if they were not selected as their school’s winner. The awards ceremony will be held on May 10 at 7 p.m. The public is invited and there will be refreshments following the ceremony. The address for the event is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, 12701 Torrey Ridge Road, San Diego, CA 92130.

continued from page 4 “We have to sensitize our economists … that changes are happening now,” Ramanathan said. While advocating respect for long-held traditions, the Dalai Lama said humanity also must face “today’s reality,” and care for the planet in the same way a bird would its nest. “Our survival depends on it,” he said. “It is wrong just to exploit as much as possible without care.” Asked by a member of the audience how one can have a calm, rational debate about climate change with those who deny its existence, the Dalai Lama said the key is to “have respect” and “listen” to the other side. During the UCSD event, the Dalai Lama occasionally consulted a translator by his side. Though portions of his talk were lost in translation, the audience seemed to comprehend the general message he wished to convey. “It’s kind of like listening to Shakespeare, where your ear adjusts, and then you get it,” said Michelle Tiernan, following the UCSD event.

Next International Bipolar Foundation free mental health lecture is May 10 On May 10, from 5:30-7 p.m., the International Bipolar Foundation will present its free mental health lecture series with guest speaker Dr. Suzanne Fiala. She is an award-winning board-certified family physician from Seattle, Wash., with an active medical practice, including a large population of patients who suffer from mental illness. Fiala is passionate about furthering education and the de-stigmatization of mental illness, as well as protecting the rights of the mentally ill. She has a unique perspective and is a powerful voice on this subject, both as a medical professional, and as an individual who suffers from bipolar disorder herself. Fiala’s lecture, titled “Bleeding on the Inside,” will discuss a medical professional’s perspective on barriers to adequate treatment of bipolar disorder and other mental illness in society, juxtaposed with a personal insider’s view of living day to day with the disease. The lecture will be held at the Sanford Children’s Research Center (Building 12), 10905 Road to the Cure, San Diego, CA 92121.

It is still very early in the process for JMI, and Kratzer said they are still considering a number of options for upgrades and additions. They are looking at the food and beverage operation very carefully and are considering expanding the informal eating areas, such as the bar. They are also trying to find ways to accommodate the hosting of more executive level meetings at The Inn. The management company Benchmark Hotels has been selected to run The Inn because of its experience with similar-size luxury hotels. Kratzer said they are working carefully to select a new general manager as he will be the face of the hotel and they are additionally looking for a new chef. Kratzer said he knows many local organizations, such as the RSF Garden Club and RSF Rotary Club, use The Inn for their meetings free of charge and they aim to continue that offering. mired the Dalai Lama and found the presentation “fantastic.” “The two scientists were so brilliant in their thinking on environmental issues, and the Dalai Lama just brought a whole different attitude (with his) spiritual background,” Harper said. Tiernan said she admired how the Dalai Lama brought “secular education in line with people’s religious beliefs, “honoring all paths and all faiths.” Environmental engineering student Kingston Hon said he was surprised by how informed the Dalai Lama is on climate change. “I didn’t know what knowledge he could bring to the table about environmental issues, but surprisingly enough, he did have a lot of wisdom pertaining to the situation we’re in,” Hon said. “I always thought he would be kind of distant from everybody, but you could sort of relate (to him), like your grandfather. He has an aura about him that you just respect, but at the same time he’s still very humble, still very human,” “He’s like Yoda,” added UCSD political science major Hannah Bernabe. Sierra Stevens-McGeever, who is studying marine biology at Scripps Institu-

tion of Oceanography, said she liked that the Dalai Lama repeatedly underscored the concept of shared humanity. “Some people are starving and some people are trying to get the biggest, baddest house and the craziest car, but it’s not really what’s important when it comes down to it,” she said. “We do share this world and our pollution is affecting people in other parts of the world that don’t have the luxury of driving a car around, but they’re still breathing in polluted air.” Student Jesse Traller, who is studying algae biofuel research, said she liked that the Dalai Lama called for engaging in civil discourse with climate change denialists. “As long as you address them in a harsh way, like I found myself doing last night — (while) talking to somebody about global warming — nothing’s going to ever come across and you’ll never work through your issues,” she said. “I think the first key is to respect others. “Like what Richard Somerville said: Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts,” Stevens-McGeever added.

Directors say ‘Hands on a Hardbody’ is unparalleled in American Theater today BY DIANA SAENGER The La Jolla Playhouse’s April 27 season opener is based on the 1997 documentary film, “Hands on a Hardbody,” about contestants who compete in an endurance/sleep deprivation contest to win a brand new hardbody truck. After seeing a short preview of the musical it’s apparent this production hits the high notes in every way — solid story, amazing songs and terrific actors. “Hands on a Hardbody” is a world-premiere musical commissioned by The Playhouse for Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Doug Wright (“I Am My Own Wife,” “Creditors”). Wright said he got the idea after seeing the documentary. “It’s a wonderful, sly piece of filmmaking because once you start watching, you think, ‘what a ridiculous premise,’” he said. “But then you see these profound truths emerging about where we are, our loss of identity and sense of squandered opportunity. Yet, we also see our spirit, resourcefulness and tenacity, so I felt like it was a stunning portrait of our country in this moment, and I knew it was stage worthy.” In addition to Wright, an incredible team has been brought together to create the show: Amanda Green, music and lyrics; Trey Anastasio (of Phish fame), music; Neil Pepe, direction; Benjamin Millepied, musical staging; Zachary Dietz, music direction; Christine Jones, scenic design; Susan Hilferty, costume design; Tony Award-winner Kevin Adams, lighting design; Steve Canyon Kennedy, sound design; and

Director Pepe likes that this is a “big American musical.” “It’s about the lives of these people and the music is eclectic with rock ‘n’ roll, ballads and folksy country blues. It’s not just themed at one audience, it will appeal to everyone.” While the story of strangers coming together in

Wright, Contact: Pepe, actor Keith Car(858) 550-1010 radine (who appears lajollaplayhouse.org in the show), and Playhouse Managing Director Michael Rosenberg couldn’t say enough about the team. “This is our 70th commissioned production and what we’re doing here is unparalleled in American Theater today,” Rosenberg said. Green’s lyrics can be found in productions like “Bring It On: The Musical,” Broadway’s “High Fidelity,” and the revival of “Hallelujah Baby.” Peers consider her lyrics for Hardbody, “amazing.” “I wrote all these scenes I knew were destined for the trash bin, but I knew I’d get in return heart-stopping sentiments expressed in rhyme with beautiful melodies,” Wright said about Green’s talent.

BLM selects proposed wild horse ecosanctuary on private and public land in Nevada for environmental analysis The Bureau of Land Management announced recently that it has selected for environmental analysis a public-private land wild horse ecosanctuary proposal submitted by Saving America’s Mustangs (SAM), a nonprofit organization formed by local resident Madeleine Pickens. The BLM will conduct an environmental analysis of the proposal under the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 to assess the environmental, economic, social, and other effects of the proposed ecosanctuary. The BLM expects its NEPA analysis — which will include extensive public input — to be completed in approximately two years, after which the agency will make a decision about whether to enter into a formal partnership with SAM. SAM’s proposed non-reproductive, 900-head ecosanctuary would help the BLM care for the horses while ensuring healthy rangeland conditions. Under the proposal, SAM would improve and maintain fencing and water wells and oversee management of the ecosanctuary horses, which would remain under Federal ownership. SAM would also provide Western history- and wild horse-related education and promote ecotourism. For more information, visit www. savingamericasmustangs.org

Nominated Box Office: (619) 234-5623 for 12 Tony Awards, the show begins previews April Website: TheOldGlobe.org 29 at The Old Globe. The critically-acclaimed musical features topnotch talent performing music and lyrics by the team of John Kander and Fred Ebb. Direction and choreography is by five-time Tony Award-winner Susan Stroman, with musical direction by Eric Ebbenga and libretto by David Thompson. Portraying one on the Scottsboro Boys is Clifton Duncan as Haywood Patterson (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twelfth Night,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The uniVERSE Projectâ&#x20AC;?). Duncan, who got his start in an acting program at New York University, was performing at the Yale Repertory Theatre when he received a call from his agent. She informed him that Stroman had seen him and wanted him to audition for this West Coast premiere. Duncan was not aware of the true story at the time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had friends tell me an actor does not choose a role, the role chooses him,â&#x20AC;? Duncan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt very fortunate to get the role in an important production, such as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Scottsboro Boys.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; This kind of story was common at that time with a kind of apologizing, like with Rosa Parks or papering over the nuances of what led to the Civil Rights Movement. In the play, Hayward reveals that he was the first to go on trial and be sentenced, and he talks about some of the actual events.â&#x20AC;? Also appearing in the musical are Tony Award-winner Ron Holgate, Jared Joseph, JC Montgomery, David Bazemore, Nile Bullock, Christopher James Culberson, Eric Jackson, Kendrick Jones, James T. Lane, Clifton Oliver, Clinton Roane and C. Kelly Wright. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Susan and her team give us confidence and for people who have accomplished so much, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a warm and welcoming ego-free environment,â&#x20AC;?

Divorce recovery By Diana WeissWisdom, Ph.D. Dear Dr. Diana, I have been divorced for a year and I don’t want my exwife back. Just to be clear. Turns out that she cheated on me repeatedly over the years and took advantage of my gener- Dr. Diana Weiss-Wisdom osity and trust. She is not a good person. I recently found out that she is getting re-married. Ever since, I’ve been preoccupied with thoughts about our marriage and everything that happened. I’m thinking about warning the man that she is marrying (even though I don’t know him personally) about who she really is. In some ways, I almost feel a moral obligation. Do you agree? Thanks. — Still Recovering from Divorce Dear Recovering, When we feel wronged and mistreated, it can be hard to let it go — especially if the person who committed the hurtful deeds is not remorseful. Whether your purpose in telling your ex-wife’s fiancé is to protect and warn him or to hurt your ex-wife, I do not think that it is your moral obligation to do so. As you describe it, you’ve been recovering from your divorce until this news pulled you back into the painful vortex of your past experience. It’s understandable that her re-marriage plans have stirred up any issues that remain regarding your relationship with her. But inserting yourself into her new life will only hurt you. When people go through divorce, it’s normal to have all sorts of different feelings ranging from anger, hurt, resentment, disappointment, hopelessness, and sometimes relief or a

sense of freedom. When somebody learns that their spouse has been cheating on them, it’s common to feel victimized. And that’s OK for a time. But eventually, to have a healthy recovery, it’s important to recognize what it was that you contributed to your marriage going wrong (in some way or other it always take two to tango). Once you have some clarity on that, it’s time to focus your mind and your energy on this next chapter of your life and making it what you want it to be. Memories are selective. We sometimes have a tendency to recall the “good old days” of a relationship, without putting adequate emphasis on those times that were not so good or were just plain bad. You’ve stated that you don’t want to get back with your ex-wife, but just in case all of this stirs up any old, ‘’warm’’ feelings, try to focus your thoughts on the aspects of the marriage that were not good. Keep in mind those things about her that bothered you, or were negative, unflattering, or just plain hurtful. When your mind goes to the past, be sure to include all of that and to thank your lucky stars that you are not married to that person anymore. You’re free to find true love with someone you can respect and admire. This should help you release any old longing for things to be different so you can focus on the present and creating a better reality in your life. Your heart may be in the right place in wanting to warn someone else so they aren’t hurt like you were; but informing your ex-wife’s fiancé about her character could be going backward for you. I recommend that you continue on with your progress of moving forward, looking towards the future, not the past. Wishing you healing and happiness. Diana Weiss-Wisdom, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist (psy#12476) in private practice in Rancho Santa Fe. You can reach her at (858) 259-0146 or www.drdianaweiss-wisdom.com

Tickets are on sale for annual Hats Off to San Diego luncheon Organizers promise there will be even more laughter, applause and gaiety at the 19th annual Gold (Gifts of Loving Donors) Diggers’ “Hats Off to San Diego” luncheon than ever before. With the theme, “A Salute to Broadway,” there will be toe tapping under the tables, swaying to the music, and a surprise as this year’s contestants model their hats before the crowd. The event begins with a Champagne Social at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 3, at The Prado in Balboa Park. The hat event has been renamed “The Betty Mabee Hat Parade,” in honor of the deceased founder of the Gold Diggers. Fashion personality Leonard Simpson will be the Master of Ceremonies. “People are going to see a wonderful event and they are going to want to be involved in coming years,” said co-chair Diana Vuich, who shares duties with Priscilla Webb. “There will be four, silent auction packages and a drawing for a $500 money hat.” The event committee has chosen ElderHelp and San Diego Junior Theatre to receive sizable gifts on that day. (Donations to ElderHelp assure there will be help for older adults who are not poor enough to qualify for county or state services, but cannot afford to get help on their own. San Diego Junior Theatre provides productions for children of all ages and abilities since its beginning in 1948.) In addition, donations will also go to other local groups. A striking and creative hat that blends the purposes and goals of the local charity it represents with the theme chosen by the Gold Diggers Board of Directors, will be a top candidate for the best prize. This year’s hat parade contestants are Autism Tree Project Foundation, After School AllStars, Angels of Aseltine, ARC of San Diego, Classics4Kids, Employment and Community Options, The Friends of Braille Institute, Just in time for Foster Youth, San Diego Floral Association, Young Audiences of San Diego, and YMCA Youth and Family Services. Votes from the guests determine who wins the other prizes. The 18-Karate Gold Award $2000; the 49er Award $1,000, and the Prospector Awardee $750. Jackie Bailey is taking ticket reservations, $75 each, at (619) 670-3643. For more information, visit www.golddiggerssandiego.org

You get the windows, we pay the interest 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.

Expert to speak on the impact of health care reform La Jolla Music Society presents New York Philharmonic at May 17 ‘Coffee and Conversation’ event in RSF Congressional advisor and health-care advocate Dr. Robert Hertzka will be the guest speaker at the next “Coffee and Conversation” event on Thursday, May 17, from 8-9 a.m. at the RSF Golf Club. Hertzka will lead a presentation on the new multi-trillion-dollar health care law and how it will affect your life. Most Americans will experience tax changes due to the new health care law, known as the Affordable Care Act, or ACA, which will unfold over the next few years. The rising costs of health care will impact your financial decision-making and portfolio, whether you are an individual or business owner. Many of the highly controversial provisions will not take effect until after 2014, with the real costs of the bill becoming evident in 2014, although billions of dollars in new taxes and fees will take effect sooner. Buried within the contents of the more than 2,000-page bill are trillions of dollars in new government spending, resulting in many new taxes for individuals, business owners, and companies. There is no charge to attend the event. Hertzka’s presentation is part of the “Coffee and Conversation” series sponsored by Financial Advisor Deana Carter. To attend, please RSVP to Deana Carter at (858) 756-1566 or DCarter@CarterFinancial.biz. The Carter Financial office is located in the Rancho Santa Fe village, at 6013 La Granada.

Led by Music Director Alan Gilbert, the Philharmonic’s San Diego program will include Dvo ák’s Carnival Overture, Opus 92, Debussy’s La Mer and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4 in F Minor, Opus 36. La Jolla Music Society enhances the concert-going experience by presenting “Preludes” – pre-concert chats and performances – prior to each performance and free to ticket-holders. Nuvi Mehta, artistic director of the Ventura Music Festival, delivers a lecture, “About Life,” a discussion on late romanticism and the dawn of the 20th century in three great works, at 7 p.m. Tickets are $27-$97 and are available through the La Jolla Music Society box office, (858) 459-3728 or online at www.LJMS.org.

It’s reality TV vs. romantic comedy in Globe’s ‘Nobody Loves You’ BY DIANA SAENGER Michelle Tattenbaum, director of The Old Globe’s “Nobody Loves You” is in full swing readying the musical comedy for its world premiere May 9. “It’s kind of like an old-fashioned musical — there’s comedy and romance; but it’s extremely fun and with wonderful music,” she said. Music and lyrics are by Gaby Alter, with book and lyrics by Itamar Moses. The pop song-filled plot is about a philosophy grad student (Adam Kantor, “Rent,” “Next To Normal”) who goes to extremes to win back his ex on a dating show … but then along comes Jenny (Jenni Barber, “Some Lovers”). Tattenbaum (“Love/Stories,” “The Four of Us,” “Firefly”) said she was working with Moses a few years back on another show when they saw that peoples’ obsession with reality TV was starting to build. “We both had a lot to say about trying to live your life today and find a connection with other people, which is what this show is about,” she said. Moses is author of the plays “Outrage,” “Bach at Leipzig,” “Celebrity Row,” “The Four of Us,” “Yellowjackets,” “Back, Back, Back” and more. He’s written for TNT’s “Men of a Certain Age,” and HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire.” He is a former Globe Playwright-in-Residence. Tattenbaum said she enjoys everything about Moses’ creative energy. “He’s smart, funny, and has a mix of serious ideas and themes, which combined, make lots of laughs,” she said. “I get his sense of humor, he cracks me up, and I get where his characters are at and what they are struggling with. With Moses’ writing, I have an immediate access point into the characters.” “Nobody Loves You” explores who one is in relation to other people and the challenges that people face through the ages, “and now all of our electronic connections – we talk on the phone but rarely get together in person,” Tattenbaum said. Along with her passion for the story, Tattenbaum said she is also excited about the music and lyrics by Alter (“Young Zombies in Love”), music direction by Vadim Feichtner (Broadway’s “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee”) and choreography by Mandy Moore (Emmy Award-

nominated director, choreographer IF YOU GO: and dancer known What: “Nobody Loves You” for her work on When: Matinees, evenings May “So You Think You 9-June 17 Can Dance,” Where: Sheryl and Harvey White “American Idol,” Theatre, and “Dancing with 1363 Old Globe Way, Balboa Park the Stars.” Tickets: From $29 “‘They are all Box Office: (619) 234-5623 incredible,” TattenWeb: TheOldGlobe.org baum said. “I think we assembled a great team who gets what this project is about – which is finding love. We have a shared sensibility. I’ll suggest something to Mandy and she does it 10 times better than I imagined. She totally gets the humor of the show and figures out dance moves that are exactly the right style. Vadim is an extraordinary musician with a writing background, so he’s able to approach the storytelling and not just how the music should go.”

Spring Bridal Bazaar is April 29 Filled with tuneful pop songs, ‘Nobody Loves You’ takes audiences on a behind-the-scenes ride through reality television and into real life to ask the question: In a world where every kiss is staged for the cameras, can two people find a real connection? The cast includes Kelsey Kurz, Nicole Lewis, Kate Morgan Chadwick, Heath Calvert, Jenni Barber, Adam Kantor (and on floor, from left) Alex Brightman and Lauren Molina. Henry DiRocco.

The Bridal Bazaar, San Diego’s largest wedding planning expo, returns to the Del Mar Fairgrounds on Sunday, April 29, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. More than 200 of the area’s most talented wedding professionals will have displays at the show, providing thousands of fresh ideas to make weddings spectacular. That is why local brides have named Bridal Bazaar “Best San Diego Bridal Show” every year they have voted. The Bridal Bazaar and Gretchen Productions presents San Diego’s largest runway fashion show featuring the latest designs for the entire wedding party from six of San Diego’s favorite bridal and tuxedo shops.

Getting down to earth at The Living Studio in Del Mar BY CLAIRE HARLIN

are Sydney LaSasso, an upand-coming designer who makes jewelry completely out of old car parts, and William Leslie, who is well-known for his sculptural lighting fixtures made from wood and paper. On April 29, from 2 to 5 p.m., The Living Studio will host a wine and cheese event for the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy and donate 10 percent of sales to the nonprofit. The Living Studio also regularly donates a portion of sales to the Helen Woodward Animal Center. To contact the shop, call (858) 259-1011 or visit www.thelivingstudio.net.

EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

The Living Studio owner Elizabeth Levine has a passion for things that come from the earth, and it’s only half of what makes the jewelry artist so down to earth. Almost everything you will find in the Del Mar boutique is inspired by the natural world, from jewelry made of stones to terrariums to organic handmade fabrics. “There’s not a lot of bling in here,” said Levine, of Rancho Santa Fe. “I’m not into blingy things. I like more earthy and organic.” The Living Studio is a new and unique addition to the Del Mar Village. The jewelry and art boutique, located at 1011 Camino Del Mar, Suite 100, opened in October and has filled its walls with original artwork, jewelry and other collectable items by a number of local artists, including herself. She even teaches workshops on making terrariums, her specialty crafts that can be seen hanging in the window of the shop. It may come as a surprise if you saw her work, but Levine, although full of life and passionate about her craft, hasn’t always been a jewelry artist. The space was once used as her photography studio, where she specialized in photographing people with their pets. She was forced to suspend that creative outlet, however, when she was diagnosed with cancer and had trouble lifting the heavy photography equipment. Levine said treatment slowed her down, but she made the most of it. Not only did Levine start making jewelry, but she developed a business plan for the shop. “While in chemo all these ideas came to me,” she said. “All the other patients were drugged out and I was there in bed with my iPad writing my business plan.” A main aspect of the plan was to include workshops because Levine said she always loved the teaching part of photography. She holds terrarium workshops twice a week, and her shop will be offering an array of classes in May. Levine, a former healthcare practitioner who holds two master’s degrees, said she envisioned “a shop where people

(Above) Elizabeth Levine at The Living Studio. (Bottom right) Terrariums and jewelry are among the unique items offered at The Living Studio. Photos/Claire Harlin could find beautifully crafted pieces made by talented local artists and inspired by the natural world.” She said she is very selective in choosing artists to feature in the shop, and she bases her decision of both talent and how well the art fits into the earthy vibe. “I hone in on the really good artists,” she said. “Art that I think people will like.” A few of her most popular artists include Sadie Allison of Koi Design Studio, who makes fashion-forward jewelry designed to complement the earth and ocean.

Ask the Plastic Surgeons By Wendell Smoot, MD, Reza Sadrian, MD, Carol Hollan, MD and John Smoot, MD Q. I understand that the FDA recently approved a new silicone gel-filled breast implant by a company called Sientra. What is a gelfilled implant and how is it used? A. On March 9, 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a silicone gel-filled breast implant manufactured by Sientra, Inc. (based in Santa Barbara, CA) to increase breast size (augmentation) in women at least 22 years old and to rebuild breast tissue (reconstruction) in women of any age. As a condition of approval, Sientra is required to conduct post-approval studies that will assess long-term safety and effectiveness outcomes as well as the risks of rare disease outcomes. The FDA based its Sientra approval on three years of clinical data from 1,788 participants. Silicone gel-filled breast implants are medical devices implanted under the breast tissue or under the chest muscle for breast augmentation or reconstruction. These implants have a silicone outer shell that is filled with silicone gel. They come in different sizes and have either smooth or textured shells. Breast reconstruction includes primary reconstruction to replace breast tissue that has been removed due to cancer or trauma or that has failed to develop properly due to a severe breast abnormality. Breast reconstruction also includes revision surgery to correct or improve the result of a primary breast reconstruction surgery. Breast augmentation includes primary breast augmentation to increase the breast size, as well as revision surgery to correct or improve the result of a primary breast augmentation surgery. With this recent new approval, there are now three FDA-approved silicone gel-filled breast implants in the U.S. manufactured by Allergan, Mentor and most recently, Sientra. In our practice, we begin with a private, complimentary consultation that serves to determine desired results for breast augmentation. There are multiple options when it comes to breast implants and we encourage all patients who are seeking this procedure

S Wendell Smoot, MD, Reza Sadrian, MD, Carol Hollan, MD and John Smoot, MD to discuss all alternatives thoroughly with their physician. We see an increase in inquiries this time of year as women prepare for the upcoming summer swimsuit season. Spring is an opportune time for this procedure as patients are usually able to return to work within a week of breast augmentation, and can resume all other normal activities after two to four weeks. Scars will begin to fade after a few months. Our patients find that shopping for clothes and participating in summer activities are far more pleasurable, and usually report an increased sense of self-confidence. John Smoot, MD, is Chief of Plastic Surgery at Scripps Memorial Hospital-La Jolla and Wendell Smoot, MD, has been voted by his peers as Top Doctor in San Diego for five consecutive years. Carol Hollan, MD, is San Diego’s first female board-certified plastic surgeon while Reza Sadrian, MD, is one of very few plastic surgeons dually certified in plastic and reconstructive surgery as well as oral and maxillofacial surgery. The practice has over 20 years of tenure in the industry and each is individually board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Any of the physicians can provide consultations on plastic surgery procedures and/or laser and skincare treatments at their Laser and Skincare Center and can be reached at their offices on the campus of Scripps Memorial Hospital-La Jolla in the Ximed Medical Building by calling (858) 587-9850 or via the web at sandiegoplastiscurgeryclinic.com.

In addition to his huge film and TV résumé, Carradine has an impressive stage career. He said there were several factors that enticed him to do this show. “Amanda has a brilliant pedigree,” he said. “When I heard Trey was involved and heard some of the songs and then read the script, which is so completely original in every aspect, I couldn’t wait to be a part of it,” Carradine said. “This production is like lightening in the bottle. There’s something so fresh about it, and the collaboration that is bringing it together. I haven’t come across anything in many years that captures this moment, and I’ve done a lot.”

Already known as a consistent leader in the sale of luxury real estate, K. Ann Brizolis recently added yet another accolade to her incredible track record of success: the 23-year industry veteran finished 2011 as the #1 ranked agent in Rancho Santa Fe for Prudential California Realty. “Ann’s high standards of personal integrity and indepth knowledge of Rancho Santa Fe have made her one of our region’s most highly respected and sought-after agents,” said Herb Josepher, manager of Prudential’s Rancho Santa Fe real estate offices. Brizolis is a broker associate who originally joined Prudential as an Executive Director of the Estates Division. Currently a Director of the company’s Luxury Properties Division, she was recently invited to Orange County to share her insights and knowledge about the nuances of Rancho Santa Fe’s architecture, estates and neighborhoods. “It was an honor to participate in a panel with my peers and colleagues, as they are all considered experts in their respective markets,” says Brizolis. “Events like these provide our clients with a tremendous advantage, not only because they give us a chance to match our buyers and sellers together, but also because they provide us with a forum for exchanging ideas about refining our services.” Since she first entered the industry, Brizolis has excelled as a result of her professional approach and

Ann Brizolis sense of responsibility to her clients. “My strategy could be called simplistic,” says Brizolis, a graduate of California State Polytechnic University. “The key to success is to focus on client care, first and foremost, above everything else.” The results speak for themselves. Brizolis and her team have continually ranked at the top of their local market and the upper echelons of the national real estate arena. Their sales production last year placed them at the number three position out of more than 1,300 Prudential agents in San Diego County. “I would like to thank my team for their commitment to provide our clients with a superior standard of representation,” adds Brizolis. “Of course I would also like to thank my clients for their kind referrals, and for choosing me as their advisor during such an important time in their lives.” K.
