Volume 30 Number 37

BY JOE TASH CONTRIBUTOR A divided Santa Fe Irrigation District Board of Directors ordered staff to plan for a 6 percent rate increase for 2012 at its meeting on Thursday, May 19, but the public will have a chance to weigh in before the decision becomes final. On a 3-2 vote, with directors Robert “Bud” Irvin and Ken Dunford opposed, the board directed staff to build the 6 percent increase into its budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1. The rate increase, if left unchanged by the board, would take effect on Jan. 1, 2012. In the face of opposition from customers, the board in November approved rate increases of up to 36 percent over a three-year period. The increase tentatively approved at the May 19 meeting is for the second year of that three-year cycle. A 12 percent increase took effect earlier this year. A public hearing on the proposed 2011-12 budget, including the 6 percent increase for 2012, is scheduled for June 16 at the district’s headquarters, 5920 Linea del Cielo. The draft budget presented to the board last week calls for operating expenses of $20.9 million, and revenue of $22.2 million, based on a staff recommendation of a 12 percent rate increase for 2012. Under that scenario, the district would have had a projected operating surplus of $1.3 mil-

If the board does vote to acquire the land, under the bylaws they just have to send notice to Covenant members. There will be a community meeting and members can file a petition to force a community vote, but board member Deb Plummer said the Association should hold a vote of the membership anyway. “Based on the fact that we don’t have the money in our coffers to purchase this, I’d love to see it go out to a vote,” Plummer said. (The sellers have indicated that they will provide a portion of the purchase price as a carryback note, according to

Board lifts mandatory restrictions on water use

Water district board directs staff to plan for 6 percent rate increase

BY KAREN BILLING STAFF WRITER The Rancho Santa Fe Association is taking the first steps toward acquiring a 47.73-acre lot for open space in the Covenant. At its May 19 meeting, the board voted to move forward with the appraisal property for the land on Rambla de las Flores and El Acebo. Board member Anne Feighner said it was “well worth pursuing” as the property is beautiful and would add nearly 50 acres to the Ranch’s open space program. “There are very few opportunities where land this large and this unique has become available for acquisition and this particular parcel is an ideal fit for an open space acquisi-

Thirty-two Navy SEALs were invited to play golf with donors who had each contributed $10,000 to the Navy SEALs Foundation, and were hosted by RSF resident Greg Hillgren. He and others have formed an informal exclusive “confederation” of committed business/professional/community leaders who will make themselves available to support the Navy SEALs Foundation.

BY JOE TASH CONTRIBUTOR Mandatory restrictions on water use — including a three-days-per-week limit on watering landscaped areas — have been lifted for customers of the Santa Fe Irrigation District, which serves Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Fairbanks Ranch. The irrigation district’s board of directors voted unanimously to lift the restrictions at its meeting on Thursday, May 19. The water-use restrictions, including a requirement that all residential and commercial customers cut back on water use by 6 percent, had been in place since July 1, 2009, as the state grappled with a water shortage caused by drought and environmental issues. “All indications are that water supplies for this year and the coming year are adequate,” irrigation district general manager Michael Bardin told the board. “It’s a good water year in California,” he said. Rainfall totals are at or above normal throughout California for the period from July 1 of last year through May 19, according to the National Weather Service website. The rainfall total for that period at San Diego Lindbergh Field was 12.5 inches, or 117 percent of normal, while Ramona received 24.13 inches, or 149 percent of normal. In a report to the board, irrigation district staff noted that the snowpack in California’s mountains is above average for the second year in a row, and that conservation by See RESTRICTIONS, page 30

The Book Works to close this summer BY KAREN BILLING STAFF WRITER The Book Works, located at Flower Hill Promenade, will close by mid-summer after 35 years in business. Owner Lisa Stefanacci said that the decision to close was made at the beginning of May when she “finally acknowledged that the bookstore couldn’t pull its own weight.” “Running the bookstore has been a dream come true,” Stefanacci said via email. “What I’ve enjoyed most is deciding which books to buy for the store from the thousands and thousands that are published each year, and then helping customers find a great book for themselves or for a gift, using conversation and insight to help them make a great choice instead of using a computer algorithm.” She said she does not have plans yet for what she will do next but is thankful for her faithful Book Works customers that she said have enriched her life. “I’m grateful and inspired to have met so many people with a shared passion for reading,” Stefanacci said.

High School District executive director of curriculum and assessment, has resigned his position to become principal at Chabad Hebrew Academy, a private Jewish day school in Scripps Ranch serving students from preschool to eighth grade. Jaffe, former Canyon Crest Academy principal who opened CCA in 2004 and left to serve at the district office in 2007, said he’s leaving SDUHSD for the opportunity to work directly with children and help grow a school that he said has a “great foundation” but is ready to move to the next level. Chabad Hebrew Academy serves about 300 students from all parts of the county, with about one-third residing in Carmel Valley, said head of school Rabbi Josef Fradkin. Fradkin said he and his staff are thrilled to wel-

tracted to the people, the organization and the sense of community. “It’s a totally different opportunity and a totally different environment completely,” he said. But it’s the direct contact with children and being at a school that he’s missed the most. “I absolutely love working with kids,” he said. Jaffe said he plans to build the middle school and “maybe put a structure in place to expand into high school.” Jaffe started at San Dieguito in 1993 as a teacher, then an assistant principal, then principal, and finally his current position which he’s held for four years. “I’ve been in the district for 17 years, and leaving it is tough,” he said. “It’s where I grew up professionally, and I will always remember the friends

County redistricting plans in progress; Public input wanted The County’s Redistricting Advisory Committee has begun developing proposals for redrawing the County’s five supervisorial districts, but there is still plenty of opportunity for the public to give feedback and suggestions to the committee. About one month remains before the committee must make its final redistricting recommendations to the Board of Supervisors. Redistricting determines which supervisorial district residents live and vote in, so everyone has a stake. Every 10 years after the federal census, the district boundaries must be redefined to balance the districts’ populations. To learn about the committee’s work so far, view videos of past meetings and review drafts of proposed redistricting plans developed by the committee and the public, visit the County’s redistricting website at www.sdcounty.ca. gov/redistricting. The public can also submit suggestions to the Redistricting Advisory Committee through the website, e-mail or U.S. mail. To follow the committee’s work and comment in person, the public is encouraged to attend any or all of the remaining Redistricting Advisory Committee meetings scheduled for June 2 and 9 at 2 p.m. and June 13 at 9 a.m. in Room 310 at the County Administration Center, 1600 Pacific Highway in San Diego. The County’s Redistricting Advisory Committee is a citizen’s panel charged with gathering public opinion and recommending no more than three proposed redistricting plans to the Board of Supervisors by June 28. The board will consider redistricting proposals at its own public meetings and adopt a final redistricting plan that takes effect in early September.

RSF Toastmasters recognized as one of the top ‘New Member’ clubs in District 5 Toastmasters Rancho Santa Fe Toastmasters was recognized at the District 5 Toastmasters Spring Conference held on May 21 for signing up five new members during February/March 2011. Only six out of the 143 Toastmaster clubs in the district signed more members. Why is Rancho Santa Fe Toastmasters attracting such interest? Every week, the club provides a supportive, professional and fun environment to learn how to be better at public speaking. Jonathon Collopy and Paul Brown, RSF Toastmaster club officers, recently completed their competent communicator manuals by delivering the 10 basic speeches required by Toastmasters to achieve that level, joining several other members who have also reached that goal. They will now begin working on their Advanced Communicator level. This senior leadership in the club gives back by mentoring new members, assisting everyone in becoming better speakers. Patricia Fripp, keynote speaker at the District 5 Spring Conference, and one of the most electrifying speakers in North America, noted that one of the most important skills anyone can have is to stand up in front of a group of people and deliver a coherent, articulate message. Interested in improving your public speaking? Come join us for a meeting on Tuesdays from 5:30-6:30 p.m. at the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center. Questions? Contact Paul Brown at PBrown@Voitco.com or 858-349-2623.

Amy O’Brien, a 2006 graduate of Torrey Pines High School, will begin her studies at Harvard Medical School this August. Amy graduated from Torrey Pines in 2006. While attending Torrey Pines, she was an active participant in the AVID program. Targeting students who are considered to be educationally disadvantaged, AVID (Advancement via Individual Determination) is an elementary through postsecondary college readiness system that is designed to increase school-wide learning and performance. The AVID system accelerates student learning, uses research based methods of effective instruction, provides meaningful Amy O’Brien and motivational professional development, and acts as a catalyst for systemic reform and change. Following her success at Torrey Pines, Amy went on to study biology at Brown University in Providence, RI. While at Brown, she was on the equestrian team. She began her studies focusing on creative writing, but went on to graduate from Brown University with honors in biology and immunology in 2010. She credits her change of direction to her experiences mentoring at Hasbro Children’s Hospital, where she found a desire to pursue medicine. After graduation, Amy began work at the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp in Ashford, Conn. Founded by actor Paul Newman in 1988, and named for the secret, outlaw hidingplace from his film “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp has been serving seriously ill children with a remarkably empowering away experience for more than 20 years. Amy was a counselor at the camp last summer and plans to return this summer prior to her matriculation into medical school. Her experience at the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp has solidified her desire to pursue a career in pediatrics following medical school.

Canyon Crest Academy Places 1st in National Math Contest Canyon Crest Academy has some of the best high-school mathematicians in the country, as demonstrated by its 1st-place finish in the 2011 Collaborative Problem-Solving Contest (CPSC), a national mathematics contest administered by National Assessment & Testing (http://www.natassessment.com). While most math competitions encourage rote memorization, familiar problems, and quick mental reflexes, the CPSC presents schools with 15 unique, intricate problems to

be solved over the course of a week. Under the guidance of coach Brian Shay, students worked together using brainstorming, collaboration, research, and technology to solve the problems, gaining experience with skills that will be critical in college and their careers. In addition to its overall 1st-place recognition, Canyon Crest Academy was commended for having the highest score on seven of the 15 problems, including a difficult one involving an analysis of published data from the Ke-

pler space telescope. National Assessment & Testing administers high-quality mathematics competitions throughout the year that high schools can participate in through the mail. Their contests cover a variety of formats, including individual and team tests, as well as a variety of difficulties, from an easier 100 problems in 30 minutes to this more complicated 15 problems in one week.

Q&A

Rick Kornfeld works to further scope of wireless technology Rick Kornfeld has earned distinction in the wireless industry for his many innovations in the field of wireless voice and data communications. Currently, he is president and CEO of Grid2Home: Smart Energy Solutions. Kornfeld has worked for some of San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most notable tech companies, including Linkabit, Qualcomm, and Texas Instruments. Prior to joining Grid2Home, he was Rick Kornfield Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer, NextWave Wireless and NextWave Broadband. An avid cyclist and active in San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jewish community, Kornfeld recently spearheaded a local Bike for Israel event to raise funds to support a school in San Diego Jewish Federationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s partner region in Shaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ar HaNegev. In addition, he is vice chair for the San Diego AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) council and on the national AIPAC council. He was previously on the board of the San Diego Jewish Academy. Who or what inspires you? I have been involved in some great technology-driv-

en organizations, from Linkabit to Qualcomm to Dot Wireless, UCSD Engineering School, the La Jolla Institute of Allergy and Immunology, and more. All of these are led (at the executive level, the board level, and the rank and file level) by tremendous people. I love being around individuals as smart and creative as this, even though at times I hardly deserve to be in the same room with them. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? We have a family picture of my fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family in Europe in the early part of the 20th century. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a picture showing my grandmother as a young woman and many other members of my family who I never met and who, unfortunately, were murdered in the Holocaust. I find myself looking at this photo often, and looking at the faces of my family, I can see that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re related. I would love to sit down and meet them and understand the world they came from, and tell them about our world today. Tell us about what you are currently reading. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m reading â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Big Shortâ&#x20AC;? by Michael Lewis. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a narrative about the recent sub-prime mortgage crisis with enough information to teach a bit of what happened and

why. What is your most-prized possession? When we had the firestorm here in San Diego a few years back, I thought about what I would want to save from the house. My thoughts werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t any different than just about anyone else on this subject. Save the personal items like pictures, family artifacts, etc. What do you do for fun? I am a very avid cyclist. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to be able to blend my cycling with my philanthropic interests such as my involvement with Jewish Federationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bike for Israel to raise money for a school in Israelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Shaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ar HaNegev region. I also like to cook, although I would like to be better at it. Please describe your greatest accomplishment. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to let you know when I accomplish it. What is your motto or philosophy of life? Always remain relevant, active and curious.

RSF teen wins women’s shortboard title at championship BY KAREN BILLING Staff Writer Surfer Danny Dean is ticking down the days until it’s officially summer. School’s out on June 17 and starting then she’ll be dropped off at the beach at 7 a.m. and ride the ocean all day long. The 16-yearold Rancho Santa Fe resident is just putting in the necessary work toward her goal of becoming a professional surfer. Danny recently won the open women’s shortboard title at the Western Surfing Association’s Gatorade Hoppy Swartz Memorial West Coast Championships on May 14-15, also finishing fourth in the girls under-18 division. In addition to her individual accomplishments, she also competes for the Canyon Crest Academy surf team. The junior was named this year’s MVP. “The ocean definitely has to cooperate,” said Danny of her performances in surf contests. “I like competing because it really

puts my skills to the test and I’m a competitive person.” Danny started surfing when she was 10, but really started to take it more seriously at age 13. She credits Rancho Del Mar Surf Camp and Dan Mori of Fulcrum Surf for really helping to develop her talent on the waves. “(Fulcrum) helped me out a lot and kind of set me up,” Danny said. Danny is in the water every day—she gets out early from school to surf in the afternoons. Twice a week Danny trains at Dean Sports Consulting’s training facility in San Clemente, run by Kevyn Dean, the medical director and lead trainer for Surfing America and the PacSun USA Surf Team. Her favorite surf spot is Seaside near Cardiff, which she praised for its “left and right” and because she’s met so many friends there. She has been fortunate to surf some pretty amazing spots in the world—she’s

Marc André Meyers, Ph.D.

Profile

Local science professor tackles the ‘unfinished business’ of writing thriller and science fiction novels Author to discuss novel at Mysterious Galaxy bookstore BY ARTHUR LIGHTBOURN Contributor For Marc André Meyers, whose continuing career as a researcher spanning more than 40 years has gained him a worldwide scientific reputation, writing novels is simply taking care of “unfinished business,” something he always wanted to do and is now doing. Meyers is a Distinguished Professor of Materials Science at the University of California San Diego. He heads a materials science group at UCSD: he is an expert in explosives, but for the past 10 years has concentrated on applying his research to biological materials; he is the author of three science and engineering books, including the classic textbook, “Dynamic Behavior of Materials” (J. Wiley, 1994); and, most recently, he authored

two novels, the Decemberreleased thriller “Chechnya Jihad” and the 2006 science fiction novel “Mayan Mars.” A book-signing and discussion with Meyers is scheduled for Saturday, May 28, at 2 p.m. in the Mysterious Galaxy bookstore, 7051 Clairemont Mesa Blvd., Suite #302, San Diego; and at the UCSD Bookstore, Tuesday, May 31, at noon. At 64, Meyers is grayhaired, tall, lean, sophisticated, well-travelled, fluent in five languages, a divorced father of two grown children and grandfather of two, who keeps in shape surfing, jogging and kayaking. He was born in João Montevade, Brazil, “a deep valley, surrounded by woods and the pungent smell of a steel plant that spewed fire and dust over the region.” Meyers showed an early talent and enthusiasm for writing that was encouraged in school by Dutch nuns and a priest, Padre

Quick Facts Name: Marc André Meyers, Ph.D. Distinction: A Distinguished Professor of Materials Science at UCSD and an expert in explosives, Marc Meyers is also the author of two novels, the science fiction genre “Mayan Mars” and the thriller “Chechnya Jihad.” He is currently working on a third novel. Born: João Montevade, Brazil, 64 years ago Education: B.S. in mechanical engineering, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, 1969; M.S. and Ph.D., in materials science and engineering, University of Denver, 1972 and 1974 respectively. Family: Divorced father of two grown children and grandfather of two. Interests: Writing, travel, surfing, kayaking and jogging Current reading: “The River of Doubt : Theodore Roosevelt’s Darkest Journey” (a journey Roosevelt made down an unexplored tributary of the Amazon), by Candace Millard Favorite getaways: Brazil and Luxembourg Languages: English, Portuguese, Spanish, French and German Philosophy: “I try to be a good Christian.”

Henriques, who formed a literary association. The boy dreamt of one day becoming a writer. “But my father was an engineer and he said: ‘Marc, study engineering and you’ll always have a good job.’” Meyers’ father was a metallurgical engineer who, with a group of other engineers, had emigrated from Luxembourg to build the town’s steel plant. Meyers was one of four brothers in his family. Before beginning his engineering studies at Brazil’s Federal University of Minas Gerais, he studied in Belgium, interned as a newspaper reporter in Brazil and served in the Brazilian Army. In his senior year of engineering, (“I don’t recall which dictator ruled Brazil at the time”) he completed a book of poetry, with the provocative title IMPLOSAO (Implosion), and had 60 moonlight copies printed at the university print shop. He wanted to become a published poet before going to graduate school. “At the time, and unknowingly to us, military censors would routinely check every printed word in university print shops,” Meyers said. Shortly afterwards, the director of the school called Meyers in and told him that the feared SNI (National Information Service) had paid a visit and were demanding an explanation for the publication of Meyer’s poems which they considered as “inflammatory and subversive material.” If they opened an investigation, Meyers would have had to remain in Brazil for three years and delay going to graduate school in the U.S. Meyers chose to leave Brazil in a hurry, forfeiting a Fulbright fellowship for which he had been a finalist. Thirty years later, he would republish his original poems, translated into English, and with additional poems, titled Abcission/Implosion (Writers Club Press. 2001). After leaving Brazil,

Meyers joined his brother in Denver, where he obtained an assistantship at the University of Denver, and later earned a master’s degree and doctorate in materials science and engineering. “That’s where I learned about explosives. They had an explosives center there,” he said. After four years in Denver, he returned to Brazil and, for the military, in Rio de Janeiro, set up the country’s first explosives lab. He subsequently, on invitation, returned to the U.S. as a visiting professor at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology; then to New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, which has the most extensive university explosives lab in the world and where he remained for 10 years. In 1989, he joined UCSD. His novel “Chechnya Jihad” revolves around the accidental discovery by university research professor Jean-Claude Delvaux in New Mexico of a biologyenhanced super explosive dubbed C4 that is 10 times more powerful than conventional explosives. When the explosive is stolen, Delvaux volunteers for a NSA/ CIA-led commando raid launched from Chechnya and aided by Chechen Muslim mercenaries to retrieve

the explosive from a Russian biological/chemical warfare lab in Siberia where it was to be analyzed. Moved by the Chechens’ struggle for independence from Russia, Delvaux serves as a guerilla sniper, using 7.62 mm cartridges hand-loaded with small amounts of his C4 explosive to destroy scores of the Russian reactive armor T72 tanks, in the First Chechen War in 1994. He also becomes disillusioned with the cruelty of war. He returns to the States and to a professorship at Harvard, a new marriage and the birth of a son, only to be lured back to Chechnya in 2006 and into the continuing struggle that has become part of al-Qaeda’s global jihad or “holy war.” What prompted Meyers to write about Chechnya and jihad? From 1994 to 1996, Meyers traveled to the Soviet Union four times as one of the key liaison scientists in a technological exchange program on the effects of explosives in metals with Russian scientists. One of the conferences was held at the foot of Mount Elbrus in the Caucasus close to Chechnya. “I could feel the tension between the local Muslim population and the Russians,” Meyers said. “They felt the Russians were invaders. They stopped a funicular and let the Russians hang there for an hour or so. The driver almost capsized our bus. These were not accidental events. “At the same time the Chechen movement started up for independence and I became interested and started reading up on it.” Despite overwhelming manpower, weaponry and air support, Russian forces have been unable to establish permanent control over

the mountainous Northern Caucasus region. “The cruelty of this war haunted me for a long time,” Meyers said. “They are still fighting, and I think, at the end of the day, they will be free and the Caucasus will not be part of Russia.” With limited time because of his academic and research responsibilities at UCSD, when he’s in the writing mode, Meyers writes every morning for an hour and 15 minutes and when traveling on planes he puts in six to eight hours. His earlier novel, “Mayan Mars,” was a science fiction work in which widowed professor Gustavo Chen is invited to take part in a mysterious space research project in which he must confront and attempt to defeat a mutated virus that threatens humanity. “Mayan Mars” is available on Kindle and “Chechnya Jihad” will soon also be available on Kindle. He is currently working on a third novel, “Squid,” “a Baja/narco/fantasy.” And he is looking for a literary agent to represent him. He describes his reading habits, even to this day, as “omnivorous.” “I started in childhood with Edgar Rice Burroughs (Tarzan books) and all of Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes) and went on to Hemingway, Hesse, Dostoyevsky, Camus, de Chardin, Dumas, Neruda, pulp and Latin American authors. Whatever I could get my hands on. The good, the bad and the ugly stuff. “What I like about Hemingway is that he does not succumb to the intellectual temptation of writing about inner voyages devoid of action. “He was an inspiration to me and I admire his strength and vigor, symbolic of this nation. “Maybe I’m not a famous writer or a great writer,” he said, “but I write and I struggle and I improve. You learn writing by writing.”

Local resident advocates all-natural health remedy to high cholesterol BY MARLENA MEDFORD Staff Writer After 16 years in the medical device and research world, local resident David McMahon is a bona fide numbers guy who stays steeped in black-and-white scientific data. So, he might not be the first person you’d expect would turn to an allnatural health remedy — but when his cholesterol levels crept dangerously high, that’s precisely where his research led him. McMahon is now an advocate of Cardiol, an FDA-registered natural alternative to the pharmaceutical drugs used to treat high cholesterol. Through his newly launched company Solana Health, McMahon is aiming to educate more people about this alternative, which he said has changed his life in a big way. McMahon, like many Americans, has long battled high cholesterol. He was able to keep it in check through proper diet and exercise, that is, until he turned 40. Instead of handing him a prescription, his doctor recommended he be-

If you go During this year’s Fiesta del Sol, which is scheduled for June 4 and 5, the Del Sol Lions Club will be providing free cholesterol screenings. David McMahon will also have a booth at this year’s Fiesta del Sol. Accutech, a local company that sells at-home cholesterol tests, has also donated 120 kits. McMahon will be offering those in conjunction with “a Cardiol starter kit” so people can track their own progress. gin an all-natural regimen of omega-3 fatty acids and red yeast rice with a supplement of CoQ 10. Red yeast rice is an extract from a fungus that naturally occurs, and pharmaceutical companies have synthesized it to develop a class of drugs called Statin, which are now used to lower cholesterol. Omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in fat-

ty fish varieties like sardines and herring, have several health benefits — including raising HDL cholesterol, known as the “good cholesterol,” and decreasing triglycerides, which have been linked to heart attacks. Staying true to his datadriven roots, McMahon went home and started researching the red yeast rice and omega-3 fatty acid regimen his doctor had recommended. “The big clincher for me was a 2008 study by the Mayo Clinic,” he explained. The 12-week study compared two groups of patients with high cholesterol, one used Statin drugs and the other used red-yeast rice and omega-3 fatty acids. Ultimately, he said, the study concluded that both groups saw their cholesterol levels drop about 40 percent — but those taking red yeast rice needed a much smaller quantity to achieve the same result. McMahon said he also read studies that showed it was not uncommon for Statin drug-users to report severe muscle pain as a side effect, though that was not the case for those

David McMahon who took red yeast rice. “That was it, the data won me over,” McMahon said. He took his doctor’s advice and started the all-natural regimen and sure enough, his cholesterol went down 20 percent within weeks. But there was still one problem: “I was taking six pills a day and spending $80 a month to keep it up,” he said. “I figured there has to be an ‘all-in-one’ pill for this.” So he began searching

online and discovered Cardiol, which is produced in Italy and has been selling in Europe for years. Unlike the U.S., Europe highly regulates its natural supplements and has high standards. But because Cardiol is produced in Italy, McMahon discovered it would be tricky to have it shipped to the U.S. because of government regulations. McMahon has since gotten Cardiol registered with the FDA and has exclusive rights to distribute throughout North America. He now

sells it for $40 a month (or $35 a month if bought in bulk) through his company Solana Health. McMahon has also been taking Cardiol for a couple of months, and said since then, his cholesterol levels have stayed low and his ‘good cholesterol’ levels have gone up about 33 percent, and he’s seen a drop in his triglycerides. “I’ve put my mom on it, that’s how much I believe in it,” he said of Cardiol, which comes with a 60day money-back guarantee. “This is something that’s all natural, convenient, affordable, and proven effective. A lot of doctors are prescribing Statin drugs because it’s the only trick in their bag — and that might be the right fit for some people, but that doesn’t mean it’s the right fit for everyone.” For that reason he encourages anyone suffering from high cholesterol to do their homework about natural alternatives and, in fact, McMahon offers a free e-book on the topic at HowToLowerCholesterolLevels. net.

Drew Brees makes 12-year-old’s dream come true BY KAREN BILLING Staff Writer At the Cox Celebrity Championship last week, host Drew Brees was a much sought-after man. The Super Bowl Champion quarterback of the New Orleans Saints was pulled in a million directions. His busy schedule on May 19 had him rushing from interview to interview, without a break in between, with a big party to headline that night. Amid the quarterback’s scramble, he still found the time to keep one very special meeting — the one with Tim Seastrand, 12, who is in remission from lymphoma. Tim has wanted to meet Brees since he was 7 years old. The meeting was set up by one of the tournament’s beneficiaries, the Friends of Scott Foundation, a San Diego organization dedicated to helping children with cancer and their families. Meeting Drew Brees was part of its Special Dreams program, which helps make wishes come true for children with cancer. Carmen Delgadillo

Above left, Tim Seastrand (right) was able to meet Drew Brees (left) through the Friends of Scott Foundation. Right, Brees with Dave and Teresa Miller (left), Tim and Carmen Delgadillo (second from right). (Far right) Tim getting out of the limousine, ready for his meeting with Drew Brees. Photos/Karen Billing founded Friends of Scott after losing her son Scott to cancer in 2001 when he was 14 years old. She said every “Special Dream” is important but this one was incredibly emotional — she couldn’t keep her tears from falling. Every granted dream reminds her of Scott who, through the Make-AWish Foundation, was able to fulfill his dream of attending a Notre Dame game.

“I remember how happy it made [Scott] feel,” said Delgadillo, watching that same happiness light up Tim’s face. Inside the restaurant at Morgan Run, Tim watched with glowing eyes as outside the window his hero was shuffled between his various responsibilities, knowing soon he would be walking through the door to meet him.

While it was supposed to be a surprise that the limo that picked him up early from school that day was taking him to meet his hero, Tim had already guessed it, telling everyone in his class he was meeting Brees. He knew for sure when he climbed out of the limo at Morgan Run and spotted the football in Delgadillo’s bag. Tim’s eyes followed Brees

as he made his way into the restaurant, telling his family, “He’s coming! Here he comes!” Brees greeted Tim with a warm handshake and the pair fell into easy conversation. Brees signed Tim’s football and laughed when Tim excitedly told him that he’d taken the Saints to the Super Bowl twice while playing the Madden NFL video game, issuing

a bit of a challenge for the next season. As Brees walked away, Tim’s smile remained stretched across his face. “That was awesome,” he said. Delgadillo wiped away tears. Another child’s dream made real, allowing Scott’s legacy to continue on. For more information on the Friends of Scott Foundation, visit friendsofscott.org.

Armed Forces Interest Group Golf Tournament for Navy Seals Following an ancient Scottish tradition, just after noon on May 17, a bagpiper walked up the 18th fairway at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club towards the first tee, welcoming very important people to the club. Thirty-two Navy SEALs were invited to play golf with donors who had each contributed $10,000 to the Navy SEALs Foundation, and were hosted by Greg Hillgren. He and others have formed an informal exclusive “confederation” of committed business/professional/community leaders that will make themselves available to support the Navy SEALs Foundation. The Endowment Leadership Group has committed to create, and “lead by doing,” the best 21st century model for how the private sector can aid and support the 100 percent volunteer military by providing talent, connections and influence. The group hopes to give all of “our guys” insights and opportunities for career transition when they retire. Captain John McTighe said it all, “The entire day was just incredible. And, the fact that it was FOR our guys was really special. They have never seen that before… none of ‘em.” The Endowment Leadership Group is hoping to attract other donors to this effort through the Armed Forces Interest Group.

America’s Most Loved Dermatologist now in La Jolla and Scripps Ranch

BY TERRIE LITWIN, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, RSF SENIOR CENTER It is currently estimated that half of all falls that result in injury happen in the home. Most residential housing is geared to young, healthy Terrie Litwin adults with features that do not take into account age-related conditions such as reduced mobility or limited range of reach. What appear to be insignificant issues can have a significant effect as we age. The National Center for Injury Prevention and Control states that falls are the number one cause of home injury with a significant portion due to environmental factors. Throw rugs, electric cords and general clutter can increase the risk of falls and should be removed or repositioned. Proper lighting in hallways, bathrooms, and regularly trafficked areas can also help prevent falls. Grab bars and handrails can be easily installed and further decrease the risk of falling. Another important component of remaining safely at home as we age is the ability to summon help when needed. In an

emergency, delayed medical care can adversely affect your ability to recover. If you are living alone, you may be unable to summon help in a timely manner. Medical alert devices offer a practical solution to the problem and can help maintain independence and peace of mind for seniors living independently at home. Many companies offer low cost, attractive options for summoning assistance when needed and offer tremendous peace of mind to seniors living alone. On Wednesday, June 15th, at 2:00pm, Cindy Sawyer, of Phillips Lifeline Medical Alert Service, will provide information on the newest technology available on the market today. Please plan to attend this important program.

Local residents plan Mt. Kilimanjaro hike to raise funds for Parkinson’s disease research •Gr oup invites others to join them May 29 for Torrey Pines hike BY KAREN BILLING STAFF WRITER Local nurse practitioner Sherrie Gould is leading a team of hikers up Mt. Kilimanjaro this year to raise awareness and funds for Parkinson’s disease research. Since March, Gould and 14 hikers, all of whom are Parkinson’s patients or family members, have been training for “Summit 4 Stem Cell,” aiming not only to conquer the 19,339-foot African peak but make a contribution toward the groundbreaking non-embryonic stem cell research going on right here in San Diego. “This new therapy would hold huge promise for people with Parkinson’s,” said Gould, who works in the Scripps Clinic Torrey Pines’ Division of Neurology. She said while many people have heard of embryonic stem cell research, not many know about stem cells made from a patient’s own cells. “We are truly on the cutting edge and that’s what makes this so exciting,” Gould said. Summit 4 Stem Cell invites the public to come out and hike with them this Sunday, May 29, at 10 a.m. at the base of Torrey Pines State Park. Gould said it will not only help raise awareness for their mission but it’s also just a great healthy hike for anyone. “The more people we can get out there the more amazing it will be,” said Gould. “We want it to be a big deal, we’d love the support, it’s really important for those of us in training.” Summit 4 Stem Cell plans to hike Mt. Kilimanjaro on Sept. 4, a journey to the summit that is expected to take seven days. “It is a grueling, very tough climb,” Gould said. “You have to be in incredibly great physical shape.” Gould is doing her best to get her team ready—in their

ing is that the technology now exists to take skin cells and create pluripotent stem cells,” Gould said. The pluripotent stem calls have the ability to become any cell in the body and can also become dopaminergic neurons. Considering many Parkinson’s patients have lost 80 percent of their dopaminergic neurons, it’s like “filling the bucket back up in a sense,” she said. “No one has discovered how to cure Parkinson’s, but this is a treatment to help stay ahead of the disease,” Gould said. Phase two of their program, which will include FDA approval, will take those banked cells and make an extremely pure colony of cells made from the patient’s own cells. By using the patient’s own skin cells, they are bypassing the ethical and political hurdles that have accompanied stem cell research to date. Beyond the research, Gould has always been a big advocate for exercise as it can impact the course of Parkinson’s disease. She said the hike really sums up everything she stresses with patients— exercise, attitude, determination and going beyond perceived limitations. “We know the climb is a courageous act,” Gould said. “It’s our way of inspiring all who face seemingly insurmountable odds to rise above them and escape the limitations we all set for ourselves.” All hikers are paying their own way for the trip and all money raised will go to fund the pilot project. All donations are tax-deductible and fundraising has the support of the Parkinson’s Association of San Diego. Donations can be made by visiting www.summit4stemcell.org. The group is also looking for Parkinson’s patients who would like to join them on the Kilimanjaro climb. If interested, call (858) 5549924.

Sherrie Gould, far right, leads her Summit 4 Stem Cell group on a practice hike from Lake Poway to Mt. Woodson. Photo/Andrew Szikla training they will hike Iron Mountain next week and San Jacinto, an 11,000-foot peak in June. Parkinson’s disease is a disorder of the brain and nervous system that progresses with the loss of dopaminergic neurons. Gould describes it as a debilitating disease that effects movement, balance and “executive functions” that we sometimes take for granted. The average age of diagnosis is 62 years old. The pilot project is being conducted by Dr. Jeanne Loring, director of the Center for Regenerative Medicine at Scripps Research Institute, and Dr. Melissa Houser, director of the Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders Center and the Deep Brain Stimulation Center at the Scripps Clinic. “What makes this research incredibly unique and amaz-

Why condominium owners should have full RSF Association membership privileges In response to the article in the Rancho Santa Fe Review, May 12, 2011, we would like to address some of the statements and clarify the reason we believe the condominium owners should have full membership to the RSF Association with all privileges. First and foremost, each and every condominium owner in the Covenant pay fees to the RSF Association on the same rate as all Covenant owners, yet, all individual condominium owners are not full members, therefore not able to enjoy ALL privileges of the RSF Association and are not allowed to vote as a member of the RSF Association.

May 26, 2011

For example: In a 12unit complex there are only TWO voting members; and only TWO options to join the RSF Golf Club. The other 10 members do not have the full privileges of the Association available to them, YET THEY PAY THE SAME DUES. This is disenfranchisement. The current economic conditions have affected all Golf Clubs, which have lost members, i.e. revenue. This, we believe, is the reason behind the new policy to allow members who belonged to the RSF Golf Club for 10 years or more, and no longer live in the Covenant, to re-join the golf club. This is very unfair to the current condominium owners, who pay the same Association fees, and are not allowed to join the club. There is a potential pool of new members from the existing condominium owners. Even 40 new members would equate to $2,000,000 in up front fees, and at $600 per month dues to the golf club would be $24,000 per month or $288,000.00 per year. These fees and dues would create a financial buffer against future assessments, and, from golfers we have talked to, would not significantly affect tee times. Condominium owners paid dues to the Association in 2010 at the same tax rate as all homeowners. Thus enriching the Covenants resources for ALL Covenant residences, yet not getting full rights as a member of the Rancho Santa Fe Association.

RESTRICTIONS continued from page 1

district customers since the restrictions were imposed has resulted in a 20 percent decrease in water use locally. In addition, the report said, reservoir levels in the state are either above normal or full, including Lake Hodges, which holds local water supplies available to the Santa Fe Irrigation District. Lifting the water restrictions may also help the bottom lines of Santa Fe and other water districts. Bardin said water managers have had to balance the need for conservation with the loss of revenue caused by reduced water sales. Bardin cautioned that in spite of the current abundant supply of water in California, future shortages could occur. He noted that reservoir levels along the Colorado River are still down after several years of drought, and a portion of San Diego County’s water is imported from the river. The district still urges customers to conserve water where they can, and to use common-sense measures to avoid wasting water, such as fixing any irrigation leaks

promptly, setting sprinklers properly so they don’t over-water, and not washing down paved areas with a hose. Director John Ingalls said he would have preferred lifting the restrictions for a one-year period, rather than ending the district’s Level 2 Drought Response, which triggers the mandatory water-saving measures. “We know there’s a long-term water shortage. We’ve had one rainy year,” Ingalls said. “We give the appearance to the public of going guardrail to guardrail.” But other directors supported the action. “I think we’re looking at a snapshot in time, and at this moment there is no emergency,” said director Robert “Bud” Irvin. Ingalls joined his board colleagues in voting to lift the restrictions.

RSF Association Manager Pete Smith. “We currently have about $1.2 million in cash so whatever the balance of the purchase would be it would have to be covered by a note to repaid through further open space receipts,” he said.) Slater said it’s a slice of land people have probably driven by a thousand times and never noticed. Half of the property is already designated open space by San Diego County. “The owners of the property are staunch conservationists and are really excited about the possibility of this remaining open space rather than being developed,” said Slater. Slater said the land has a natural sloping terrain, a woodland habitat on the south side and ocean views from atop the property, which is a biological preserve. Recreational use is not allowed within the preserve but Slater said the Association could go for a modification that would allow walking paths. Currently, Covenant trails go around the perimeter of the lot. Funding for open space purchases goes back to the mid-1980s, RSF Association Manager Pete Smith said, and the program was formerly adopted in 1996 to help protect the rural character of Rancho Santa Fe.

every $100 of accessed property value paid to the Association goes into the open space program. “Since that time (1996), the Association has purchased over 100 acres. It’s been a very successful program over the years,” Smith said. The Association hasn’t made any purchases in the last four years as it has been dealing with paying off the debt from the Osuna Ranch, which the Association acquired in 2006. RSF Association President Tom Lang said that while the board has been in discussion for the last few months about the Ramblas de las Flores/El Acebo property acquisition the board was waiting for the results of the community-wide survey before proceeding. While open space was ranked the lowest priority of the six issues on the survey, the majority of respondents said it is important for the Association to buy available properties—39 percent said somewhat important and 29 percent said very important. “The results were very positive for us to continue to explore the open space issue,” Lang said.

lion. District staff had recommended using the surplus to help pay off a debt to the state CalPERS pension fund — which covers the district’s pension obligations to its retirees — to save $554,000 in interest charges. Directors voted Thursday to pay off the $2.6 million pension debt in two annual installments, also on a 3-2 vote, with directors Michael Hogan and Ken Dunford voting against the motion. If directors approve the smaller rate increase for next year and also move forward with the debt payment, funds for at least some of the payment will have to come from district reserves. “I’m 100 percent in support of that, it’s a no-brainer,” said director Andy Menshek regarding the debt payment. “It’s pre-paying a loan that’s burdening you 7.75 percent (in interest) per annum,” said director John Ingalls. “You’d do that all day long if you were doing it yourself.” But Dunford said he wanted more information about how the district came to owe the money to the state pension fund before agreeing to the payoff plan. According to district general manager Michael Bardin, the district has two options —continue making payments and incurring interest charges through 2017, or retire the debt early and save on the interest. In shaping next year’s budget, the district must plan for an anticipated 8.7 percent increase in the cost of imported water from its suppliers, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California and the San Diego County Water Authority. The district has cited the increasing cost of imported water as one of the major factors in a series of rate increases in recent years. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, the district plans to use imported water to meet about half of its customers’ needs, with the rest coming from water stored in Lake Hodges. However, under questioning from Menshek, district administrative services manager Jeanne Deaver said a 3 percent increase in the Santa Fe Irrigation District’s rates for 2012 would cover the increase in the cost of imported water. Menshek said he would support passing along the increased water cost to district customers, but the district should also focus on cutting internal costs and adjusting reserves to keep rates down. While a board majority voted for the 6 percent rate increase for next year, directors Irvin and Dunford supported the full 12 percent increase recommended by staff. Both directors said the full increase would allow the district to maintain its reserves and pay for needed capital improvement projects. The draft budget contains some $800,000 in cuts from the current year’s budget, which include leaving three vacant positions unfilled, increased employee pension contributions, and a decision by the board not to make an optional payment to offset the cost of health benefits for future retirees. Even if the board approves the 6 percent rate increase for 2012 at next month’s budget hearing, the panel is likely to revisit the issue later this year, when more financial information about district costs is available, said Bardin. The district provides water to some 22,500 residents of Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Fairbanks Ranch. Under the three-year, 36 percent rate increase approved by the board in November, the bimonthly bill for the average residential customer would rise from $216 in 2010 to $303 in 2013.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Renaissance Womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Pat Launer adds â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to resume

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY MARLENA MEDFORD Staff Writer When local resident Pat Launer puts her heart into something, success is seemingly inevitable. She dedicated 20 years to teaching speech pathology at SDSU, a passion that earned her the â&#x20AC;&#x153;most influential faculty memberâ&#x20AC;? in her department eight times. She eventually followed her â&#x20AC;&#x153;other passionâ&#x20AC;? and became a full-time theatre critic and, after 25 years, has dozens of awards for her work in print and broadcast, including an Emmy Award for her KPBS show â&#x20AC;&#x153;Center Stage.â&#x20AC;? And when she decided to give dancing a go as a celebrity contestant in the fundraising gala â&#x20AC;&#x153;Malashock Thinks You Can Dance,â&#x20AC;? she took home first place. No doubt, Launer is a bona fide Renaissance Woman. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fitting, then, that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now preparing to make her debut as an artist with her show â&#x20AC;&#x153;Figuratively Speaking: Bodies in Motion and at Rest,â&#x20AC;? which will open Friday, June 3, at the Mandell Weiss Gallery at Dance Place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This [art show] is something new for me, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always believed you should continually expand your horizons and creative capabilities,â&#x20AC;? she said, stirring a cup of hot tea, a ring on nearly ev-

ery finger and her nails painted a brilliant royal purple, her favorite

color. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are shocked because nobody knows this side of me.â&#x20AC;? Truth be told, if you informed Launer 10 years ago that one day sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be opening her own art show, she, too, would have been shocked. She lived most of her life believing she could never be an artist, that is, until she took a one-day workshop based on the book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Drawing on the Right Side of the Brainâ&#x20AC;? by Betty Edwards. The teacher began by asking everyone to draw something simple, like a car or a dog, which as Launer recalled â&#x20AC;&#x153;all looked like stick figures by kindergartners.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then the teacher took all our drawings and put them up on the board and said: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;These are all cases of arrested development. Somewhere along the line someone told you that this doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look like a car or a dog.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? The thought behind that is that the logical left side of the brain inhibits the artistic right side of the brain. The rest of that one-day workshop was spent doing drawing exercises that took the left side of the brain out of the equation. By the end of the day, Launer was able to draw a picture of her of her own hand â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not an easy task, even for a skilled artist â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which she said was so good it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;frame-able.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe it. That day changed my life.â&#x20AC;? Launer said that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ah-ha momentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; emboldened her, unshackling her inner artist. She spent the next several years honing her skill through classes and lessons, many of which were taught by Reed Cardwell. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now ready to publicly reveal a collection of 40 works, all of which are abstract and stay true to her bold, brilliant style. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As my teacher always says, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;draw what you want to see â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not what you see.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; That frees you.â&#x20AC;? In her artist statement Launer explained that she chose to celebrate the human form in her art show because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;always been fascinated by the human body â&#x20AC;&#x201C; its limitless variety, flexibility, beauty, complexity and capacity.â&#x20AC;? Launer â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who also plays the piano, has mastered calligraphy, officiates weddings, and can work a potterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wheel â&#x20AC;&#x201D; said she has no expectations about her art show; sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just grateful for the experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m always trying to expand my horizons and creative capabilities,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never master art. Not in a million years. But I want to be able to say I climbed another mountain.â&#x20AC;?

Lux Art Institute welcomes Claudette Schreuders as final Artist-in-Residence of 2010/2011 season Lux Art Institute, San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first LEED certified interactive art destination, will welcome South African sculptor Claudette Schreuders as the final resident artist of the 2010/2011 Season. Fashioned from native timber, Schreudersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; methodically carved, painted figures are powerful shamans alluding to a history of growing up under apartheid as an Afrikaans female. From May 28 to June 18, the artist will be residing at Lux while working on a three-foot tall wooden sculpture, an older version of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anna,â&#x20AC;? one of the figures in the show of Schreudersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; standing three-yearold daughter. Visitors can â&#x20AC;&#x153;see art happenâ&#x20AC;? while Schreuders is in-studio and view her exhibit, featuring Claudette Schreuders numerous examples of her highly personal work, through July 30, 2011. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was in August of 2008 when I traveled to South Africa that I discovered Claudette Schreudersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bronze statue of Nelson Mandela in Cape Townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nobel Square and arranged to visit her studio there,â&#x20AC;? says Lux Director Reesey Shaw. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was so charmed by the carvings of the figures I found in her workspace that I invited her, on the spot, to do a project at Lux. We are thrilled to welcome her here to continue and finish the wooden sculpture that she started for inclusion in her series, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Close, Close.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Schreudersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; thoughtfully rendered pieces have numerous precedents and influences: Noh masks, Baroque polychrome saints, medieval church sculpture, Spanish portraiture, Egyptian woodcarving, family photographs, and perhaps most notably, West African Colon figuresâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;widely recognized icons of African art typically depicting Europeans in Western dress and ubiquitous in the craft markets of Schreudersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homeland. Schreudersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exhibit at Lux is underwritten by arts patron Linda Brandes. Lux Art Institute is located at 1550 South El Camino Real in Encinitas, Calif.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Asher Lev explores what it means to be an artist in gripping drama BY DIANA SAENGER Contributor Aaron Posner and Chaim Potok’s adaptation of Potok’s classic novel, “The Chosen,” received critical and audience acclaim in 1967. The adaptation of another Potok novel, “My Name Is Asher Lev,” will have its world premiere at North Coast Repertory Theatre (NCRT). The story of a young Hassidic artist torn between observance of his Jewish faith and the conflict of who he truly is runs June 1-26. NCRT artistic director David Ellenstein has a long history with Potok’s books and the play adaptation of “The Chosen,” which he produced five times across the country. “It’s an important part of my life,” Ellenstein said. “I’ve always had an infinity and connection to Potok’s writing. I read ‘Asher’ many years ago and the book had a profound effect on me. I contacted Aaron Posner, who did the play adaptation, and we did a reading of it for the

Jewish Arts Festival several years ago. The audience was so engaged we decided to put it this season’s lineup.” In the drama, Asher is an artistic genius whose gift and passion for drawing and painting is in conflict with some Jewish laws. “It really is about being true to yourself,” Ellenstein said. “It’s about the balance of one’s faith and culture and one’s calling to pursue what he feels is necessary. The play also deals with where the line is crossed or not crossed, as to doing what one needs

to do or not do, and how hurtful it might be to those they care about. “Certainly those familial and societal issues are relevant at any time. But Potok’s writing resonates beyond a specific community – it could be about any group of people dealing with these issues.” Ellenstein directs “My Name Is Asher Lev,” which is performed by three actors: Ellenstein, Craig De Lorenzo and Crystal Sershen. Ellenstein’s career at NCRT includes direction of a long list of plays and acting performances in many as well. “This one has been tricky; not as easy as when I directed and appeared in ‘Talley’s Folly,’ ” Ellenstein said. “Chris Williams is codirector and that’s helped me immerse myself more in my character.” NCRT expects high demand for tickets to “My Name Is Asher Lev,” and Ellenstein said he understands why. “After I read Potok’s book, I was more tolerant of

all people, and that no matter how weird their customs might be you, you have to look past that and see where they come from and who they are. “What people are mostly after, is the same thing: being in touch with humanity and God in their own observation. I think Potok communicates that well. The play has humor, is heartfelt, and intelligently and emotionally gripping. It takes you on an intensive journey.”

La Jolla Festival of the Arts to be held June 18-19 The La Jolla Festival of the Arts will celebrate its big 25th anniversary Festival June 18-19 at UC San Diego Warren Field on East Campus.

Jake’s Del Mar is only steps away from the beach.

Pecan-Crusted Sea Bass with roasted red pepper butter and rock shrimp cous cous

The surf, the sand, the sunsets … and Jake’s Del Mar … such a treat! BY KELLEY CARLSON ife’s a beach at Jake’s Del Mar with its sunny, smiling servers. Located just steps from the sand, bordering the north end of Powerhouse Park, Jake’s is “really about the people,” said partner and general manager Perry Ustick. “So many of the guests are friends of ours. We’ve developed great relationships over the years.” The staff also takes time to help the community. Each month, Jake’s sends volunteers to the San Diego Food Bank to sort through food and portion it out for families. And each night, Jake’s offers a Chef’s Special, in which chef Dustin Anselm creates an offthe-menu entree, and a portion of the proceeds is donated to the food bank. So far this year, the restaurant has raised $29,000. Jake’s has a long history with the Del Mar community. A century ago, it was the site of the Stratford Inn Garage; when that building had to be torn down, the wood trusses were saved and incorporated into the current structure, and can be seen overhead by restaurant guests. Artwork depicting Jake’s past and other local scenes are displayed on the walls. Patrons of the 30-year-old restaurant can view the decor from the inside dining room,

L The menu also includes many non-seafood dishes, such as California Lamb Chops with annato citrus marinade, guajillo chile demi and sweet potato corn hash.

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at delmartimes.net. Click ‘Food’ or ‘On The Menu.’ ■ This week: Jake’s Sea Bass with Cous Cous which features booths and round tables; the bar; and the deck, which has large windows that open and allow for ocean breezes. Guests may also sit outdoors — there’s a patio with a retractable awning, heat lamps, and direct access to the beach and park. Ustick describes the menu at Jake’s as eclectic — preparations range from South Pacific to Mediterranean, basic American to new American. And he emphasized that it’s not strictly a seafood restaurant, which some people mistakenly believe. Sunday brunch includes dishes such as Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, Hawaiian “Loco Moco” and Vanilla Bean Custard French Toast. Later in the day, there’s PecanCrusted Sea Bass, All-Natural Filet Mignon and Tournedos of Beef Tenderloin, along with appetizers,

soups and salads. Ustick’s favorites include the Mixed Seafood Pot (Maine lobster, scallops, shrimp, fresh fish and saffron tomato broth) and Macadamia Nut-Crusted Salmon. For dessert, there’s Kimo’s Original Hula Pie and Mango Raspberry Shortcake, among others. Kids have their own special menu. They can choose from entrees such as tempura shrimp, hamburger, grilled chicken breast, and mac and cheese — and they can color while they wait. Happy hour is celebrated Monday to Saturday at Jake’s, and bistro items are priced at 40-percent to 50-percent off. Tuesdays, starting at 4 p.m., features appetizers and bottles of wine at a discount, along with $3 local beer specials. As part of its relationship with Duke’s restaurants in Hawaii, Jake’s offers Waikiki Wednesdays at 4 p.m. when patrons can order Duke’s Fish Tacos for $6 and Duke’s Mai Tais for $4. For regular dining, Ustick said it’s best to make reservations, although guests can often walk in. There is self-seating at the bar. “Take a walk on the beach, come in for happy hour, get a burger and beer for under $15,” Ustick said. “Or get a nice bottle of wine and have a three-, fourcourse meal.”

Beast takes championship in 12U Division In dramatic fashion, the Beast won the 12U championship of the North Shore Girls Softball League’s recreational season. The Beast held the Ninjas in the last inning for a thrilling 7-6 win. In the bottom of the 7th inning, the Ninjas loaded the bases with one out and trailing 7-6. Beast pitcher Courtney Kim was on the mound and got the last two batters out to finish the game. Earlier, the Ninjas made a heroic comeback effort battling from a 0-5 deficit to tie the game 5-5, and then again at 6-6 before falling short in their last at bat. Abby Ausmus drove in the winning run for the Beast in the top of the 7th inning. Ausmus, along with Kim and Morgan Reed, held off the Ninjas with outstanding pitching. “It was an exciting way to finish the rec season,” said Beast manager Brad Ausmus. “The girls on both teams made many great plays throughout the game and never gave up in pursuit of the championship.” North Shore is in its 23rd year of operation and is proud to have produced some of the finest players to play at local San Diego high schools, including the Torrey Pines and Canyon Crest softball programs.

In a tough matchup of two stong opponents who had not met all season, Torrey Pines women’s lacrosse easily sealed their second CIF victory in a row over Rancho Bernardo on May 21 in the San Diego Division I championship game at the Westview High School. The Falcon’s 18-5 victory over the second-seeded Broncos was a fabulous send-off for Torrey Pines seniors Caroline Boucher, Kelly Connor, Lauren Humann, Anna Knowles, Caroline Paulson, Katie Trees and Carrie Yang. who all have made significant contributions to building the Torrey Pines women’s lacrosse program during the past four years. Torrey Pines first-year head coach Kaitlin Swagart was also a huge factor as assistant varsity coach in the Falcons’ CIF victory last year. The daunting Falcon defense, led by goalkeeper Carrie Yang and Paulson. who notched an assist, kept Rancho Bernardo scoreless for the first 17 minutes of the match with Torrey Pines Kacey McKinnon finding the back of the net twice and Trees and freshman Camille Doan each adding one of their own. The Broncos’ lone goal of the first half was promptly answered back by senior attacker Knowles with her first of four goals on an assist by Trees, who in turn scored four more goals in a row in less than four minutes. Senior middie Boucher notched her first of three goals and three assists for the match to widen the gap even more before the first half ended with the score at 10-1 in favor of the Falcons. Yang notched six saves in her last game as an accomplished threeyear starter in goal for the Falcons. Relentless defense by Paulson, Connor, Molly Bettencourt, Chandler Baldwin, and Kiana Drawhorn thwarted any chance of a Bronco comeback in the second half. Freshman McKinnon represented the future of Torrey Pines women’s lacrosse with her third goal of the day, but it was the senior offense that bid farewell with a flurry with Knowles and Boucher adding three and two goals respectively, Humann one, and Trees scoring her sixth goal and second assist of the match.

MCASD to feature ‘greatest hits,’ portrait of China’s Grand Canal BY SUSAN DEMAGGIO Staff Writer The Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla will welcome the summer of 2011 with two striking exhibitions opening Saturday — “High Fidelity: Selections from the 1960s and 1970s” plus “Emperor’s River: Philipp Scholz Rittermann.” Both will remain on view through Sept. 5. “High Fidelity,” primarily an exhibition of paintings, showcases more than 50 of the “greatest hits” from MCASD’s collection. The exhibit name is derived from the hi-fi stereo, “the manner in which we re-played the music of the ‘60s and ‘70s,” said chief curator Kathryn Kanjo. “It suggests that visual art can serve as the same sort of aesthetic analogue: as a record and reminder of a moment in time.” The works in “High Fidelity” reflect different styles, such as minimalism, pop art, and assemblage, and reveal the experimental spirit of a period when artists continued to challenge long-held stylistic conventions to allow room for contemporary content, Kanjo said. “Abstraction is represented in many variations — from the pull of midcentury abstract expressionism to refined monochromes that rejected that very approach.” Exhibiting artists, including John Altoon, Robert Irwin and John McLaughlin, explore surface tension, positive and negative space, and push the limits of painting itself. Other artists such as Sol Lewitt, Alfred Jensen and Donald Judd, employ systems to determine their compositions. Other works on view, according to Kanjo, reflect a grittier, often informal quality. Artists like Vija Celmins, Bruce Connor, Edward Kienholz and John Baldessari use found materials, expanses of text, and prosaic imagery to reference the real world as much as the art world. “While many artists mined the potential of abstraction, others turned to familiar if unexpected imagery and content in their art,” Kanjo said. “Vija Celmin’s steam tray of eggs updates the traditional still life, just as Alexis Smith’s witty collages integrate literary and media references.” In addition, “High Fi-

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Top cardiologist goes the extra mile for patients BY MARLENA MEDFORD STAFF WRITER Cardiologist Robert Orr, M.D., F.A.C.C., has been fascinated with the heart since he was a child, and today he still carries that passion for his work. After more than 20 years in cardiology, Dr. Orr has earned a name for himself as an expert in his field, a reputation that has earned him spots on local TV segments, live medical talk shows, and several national and international commercials. “If I can do something to make the public more aware of important health issues, then I’m all for it,” he said. “After I go on-air there will be phone calls the next day from people who heard the message. If I can help to save someone’s life by educating them, that feels great.” Dr. Orr carries that dedication and desire to help into his practice, California Coastal Cardiology, where he always goes the extra mile for his patients. Recently, for example, one of his patients went on trip to Tanzania in East Africa when she began having health issues. Thankfully, Dr. Orr had given her a USB memory drive that had a digital copy of all her medical records on it. The patient was able to give those medical records to a doctor in Tanzania, who then had a live video conference with Dr. Orr to discuss treatment. This technology could have very well have saved the patient’s life, and it was possible thanks to an innovative concierge service plan Dr. Orr offers. For a fee, California

Dr. Robert Orr Coastal Cardiology patients can join the concierge service plan, which gives them premium, individualized health care, including: their medical records on a USB memory drive; a series of indepth tests and analyses;

same-day appointments with the cardiologist; and the ability to speak directly with a doctor or nurse practitioner to review lab results or answer questions from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Patients can also upgrade that package to include house calls when needed and gain access to the cardiologist by cell phone any time, or via video conference. California Coastal Cardiology has two locations: 169 Saxony Road, suite #105, Encinitas CA 92024, call 760-635-9171; and 1235 W. Vista Way, suite L, Vista CA, 92083, call 760-6301606.

(L-R) Charlie Reed, Twins coach and Miracle League board member Kenny Blattenbauer, NBC-7 sports anchor Jim Laslavic; Front: Sam Burt.

TPHS senior earns â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;2011 Outstanding Service Awardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; from Miracle League of San Diego The Miracle League of San Diego recently recognized Charlotte â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charlieâ&#x20AC;? Reed, 17, by presenting her with the 2011 Outstanding Service Award. This award, along with a $250 scholarship, is presented annually to the graduating senior who demonstrates outstanding service and dedication as a Miracle League Buddy. Charlie has participated in the Miracle League since its inception, and for the past seven seasons has served as buddy to Sam Burt, also 17. The Burt and Reed families have been friends since before the birth of their children and had one day envisioned them growing up together. When Sam was born with a rare genetic disorder, that vision changed in an instant, but leave it to Charlie to find a way for the two friends to share an activity and make that dream a reality. She called up Samâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mom Deborah, told her to sign him up and the rest is history. Volunteering with the Miracle League is not the Torrey Pines seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only charitable interest. As a young girl, in lieu of gifts for her 5th birthday, she requested that her party guests donate to the Helen Woodward Animal Center. She has participated in the local Kids Korps chapter, and is an active board member for the charity Water For Sudan. Charlie has chaired many events, raising more than $10,000 for this organization which builds water wells in southern Sudan. In addition, she donated $1,000 to the Miracle League of San Diego which she raised by putting on a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theatre camp in her backyard. Charlie will be attending Berkeley in the fall and will no doubt continue her efforts to help others. The Miracle League, along with the Burt family is grateful to Charlie for her commitment to helping others. When asked about Charlie, Deborah Burt replied,â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charlie will make a difference on this earth.â&#x20AC;? It appears as though she is well on her way.

Accomplished TPHS Botball Robotics team prepares for international tournament •T eam seeking donations/sponsors Torrey Pines High School is currently competing in a robotics competition called Botball in which teams build from scratch and program up to two robots to accomplish various tasks against another team’s bots. At the regional tournament held on March 19 at the University of San Diego, TPHS competed against 29 other Southern California teams, including High Tech High and the Preuss School at UCSD. This year, the TPHS Botball team won the second place regional award, and the team is preparing for the international tournament to be held July 9-13 in Orange County. Last year, the team won first in regionals and won the best engineering award at the international tournament. “Though we did not do as well this year at the regional tournament, we plan to surpass our performance this year at the international competition,” said Prithvi Undavalli, one of the co-presidents of the team, along with Jesse Vismonte. Throughout the development process, participants not only become well versed in hardware design and programming, they also learn how to interact with others in a highstress environment — important skills that will aid them throughout life. As Jesse states, “I’m having a blast solving mind-stimulating problems that can be applied to the real world. There is no doubt in my mind that Botball has prepared me for the real world much better than any classes could have.” There are three sections to the competition, all of which contribute to the final score and standing. Through the two months of preparation up to the tournament, teams will document their progress, including problems encountered and changes made, by responding to various documentation assignments that are then graded and factored into the final score. On the day of the competition, there will be a precision seeding round in which teams’ bots complete as many tasks as they can on the game board unopposed to show judges what their robots are capable of. In the double elimination round, the different

teams’ robots face off head-to-head. TPHS Botball is funded completely by donations and is currently seeking assistance from community members or companies that are willing to sponsor TPHS for the international tournament and future competitions. Qualcomm and Motorola have been kind enough to support the team. Although these students might not be dribbling balls down the soccer field, the competitive spirit and enthusiasm is just as intense. To donate or for more information, call the TPHS Foundation at 858-793-3551.

Fundraiser to be held for TPHS graduate battling brain cancer The community has organized a fundraiser for Aaron Clubb, a Torrey Pines High School graduate and longtime North County resident who just prior to Christmas was diagnosed with stage-four brain cancer. He promptly had a tumor removed and is now doing quite well, but the chances for recurrence for this type of malignancy are near 85 percent. Clubb has a wife and young daughter to care for and works in construction. All the oncology treatment has made Clubb very weak and, thus, he cannot work and support his family. Therefore, several of his friends in the Solana Beach area have come together to organize a fundraiser on his behalf to help him with the financial aspect of his disease and treatment. The fundraiser will be held on Thursday, June 2 at the Tidewater Tavern, 221 N Highway 101.There will be drink and food specials in addition to a raffle and a silent auction. The event begins at 5:30 p.m. and admission is free. For more information, please visit http://clubbfamilyfundraiser2011.shutterfly.com/
