RSF road repaving nearing completion BY KAREN BILLING Ivan Holler, covenant administrator, told the RSF Association board May 17 that the repaving of some Covenant roads should hopefully be complete by July. Roads scheduled for repaving by the county are Mimulus, Las Planideras, Los Morros, Rambla de las Flores and Via de Fortuna. Lago Lindo will also be repaved at a later date than the other five streets. Mimulus requires some additional structural repairs before the seal coating, which is expected to begin in June. Holler also reported that the county’s project to repaint the village green curbs was completed last week, including painting over a curb illegally painted green on Paseo Delicias. See ROAD, page 24

In the past, music teachers received a log from students periodically, which showed that kids exercised a certain number of hours each week, said Rick Schmitt, SDUHSD’s associate superintendent of educational services. Parents signed off on their children’s physical activity program, which often consisted of walking, jogging, surfing or other unsupervised activity. Music teachers accepted the parental verifications. Schmitt said this is not legitimate, noting that a parSee MUSIC, page 26

Area residential burglaries up •RSF Patrol Chief reminds residents to take safety precautions

A jump in residential burglaries has recently occurred in Rancho Santa Fe and neighboring communities, according to RSF Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser. Often times the burglars are entering through unlocked doors. “In some cases they are forcing entry through doors or windows and the alarm system was not turned on,” Wellhouser said. “Fortunately, in one case a window was forced, but the alarm deterred the suspect and he fled the area. “If you leave the house for a few minutes, lock the doors and turn on your alarm,” Wellhouser added. “Make sure your locks are in good working order and secure the doors properly. Make sure sliding doors cannot be lifted off their track. “If you have anyone come to your door that seems suspicious or someone in the neighborhood that doesn’t fit call us right away. Too often we get calls about suspicious activity several days after the fact. Timely reporting is very important.” The RSF Patrol can be reached 24 hours a day at 858756-4372.

High school district music changes strike a sour note BY MARSHA SUTTON Sudden changes to the San Dieguito Union High School District music program have caused confusion and consternation among many students, parents and music supporters, some of whom are alarmed that the new regulations will harm the award-winning program. To meet the district’s requirement for two years of physical education in both middle school and high school, many music students opted to take Independent Study Physical Education after school, which allowed them to take foreign language and music as their two electives.

Nicholas Carlo, a second grade student at the R. Roger Rowe School, won two gold medals at the Southern California State Taekwondo Championships, held in Brea, Calif., the weekend of April 2122. More than 800 of the best Southern Californian Taekwondo athletes came together to determine who would qualify to compete in the Junior Olympics to be held in Dallas, Texas, this summer. Nicholas, 8, started the day with a first place win in the Forms (Poomse) competition. Poomse competition involves memorizing a series of attacking and defending movements that are Nicholas Carlo judged on accuracy and technical ability. Later, he competed in full contact Sparring (Kyoroogi) where he also took first place. These placings qualify him to compete in both events at the Junior Olympics in Dallas. Nicholas trains under Master Hyon Lee at the Taekwondo Institute in Poway.

Traffic down on Del Dios, according to Rancho Santa Fe Association report

Advocate shares view on health care reform at Rancho Santa Fe event

BY KAREN BILLING Traffic volumes have declined on Del Dios Highway in recent years, according to Ivan Holler, Rancho Santa Fe Association covenant administrator. At the RSF Association board’s May 17 meeting, Holler said that loop counters are installed on Del Dios Highway just east of El Camino Del Norte and are used to count both eastbound and westbound traffic. In 2003, the annual average daily trips were 20,232. In 2011, the average was 15,992. The same average has been seen in the first few months of 2012. The peak traffic times occur during June and July, attributed to San Diego County Fair traffic. The opening of SR-56 in 2004 is one of

BY KAREN BILLING A May 17 talk at the RSF Golf Club gave residents one expert’s insight on health care reform in the United States. Congressional advisor and healthcare advocate Dr. Robert Hertzka gave his presentation as part of the monthly “Coffee and Conversation� series, which is sponsored by financial advisor Deana Carter of Carter Financial. Hertzka spoke about why the plan to extend insurance to 32 million additional Americans by 2019 may or may not be problematic. Hertzka said he would let his audience draw their own conclusions, but called President Barack Obama’s Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) a “brick covered in frosting.� “However well intentioned, PPACA will be a dramatically underfunded government program with the potential to destabilize the entire health care system,� Hertzka said. Hertzka is a full-time anesthesiologist at Sharp, a

the main contributors to the decline in use. There has also been an 11 percent drop from 2007 to 2011, which Holler said can be attributed to the rise in gas prices, the general economic downturn, as well as improvements on Interstate-15’s managed lanes. “You look at commuters having more choices and you can see that in the trends,� Holler said. “Overall it’s good news, however, in the long term we still expect traffic on Del Dios to increase as the population continues to grow and the economy improves.� Holler noted that roundabouts continue to be studied for Del Dios. While the roundabouts wouldn’t create additional traffic because the highway will remain just two lanes, Holler said it could lead to the improvement of operation at the intersections.

Scammers posing as sheriff’s deputies prey on elderly Rancho Santa Fe Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser is warning the community that phone scammers are using the San Diego Sheriff’s Department as a ruse to trick seniors into wiring money. Recently, the sheriff’s eldery abuse unit received information about two telephone scams that prey upon the elderly residents of San Diego County, Wellhouser said. The first scam involved a suspect who

claimed to be a relative of an elderly woman whom he could not reach by phone. The suspect asked the Sheriff’s Department to perform a welfare check on the elderly woman. The deputy drove to the woman’s home and made contact with the woman who stated she did not know the person who called the sheriff’s. Additionally, the woman admitted that she had previously fallen for a phone scam that had sent funds to a suspect

via a money transfer service. The responding deputy confronted the suspect via phone and discovered he had used the department to try and reestablish contact with the victim so he could continue the financial abuse. The second scam involved an elderly male who received a call telling him he had won a large sum of money in a sweepstakes but had to pay a fee to receive it.

past president of the California Medical Association, member of the AMA Council on Medical Service, and an instructor in health policy and politics at UC San Diego School of Medicine. He has been very involved in politics with the Health Care Act in Washington DC. Hertzka talked about what he calls the “golden triangle� of health care: Access, cost and quality. “Anyone can solve one easily but solving all three

at once is obviously a challenge,� Hertzka said. He admitted that the subject of health care and reform is complicated and difficult for many to understand, and gave a brief history of how the country got into the “mess� of its current state. According to Hertzka, the fundamental problems of the employer-based health care system is that the unemployed and the retired are not covered, which led to the 1965 solutions of Medicaid for low income/ unemployed and Medicare for all over 65 years of age. “Medicaid was underfunded from day one which is a problem,� said Hertzka. The $500 billion program only covers obstetrics, pediatrics, nursing homes and HIV treatment. “The bottom line is 30 million low-income adults are still uninsured,� Hertzka said. The problem with Medicaid, Hertzka said, is that it funded massive new hospital infrastructure, it was based on 1965 health care at See HEALTH, page 24

Ambassador encourages investment in Ireland during local visit BY JOE TASH In the first-ever official visit to San Diego by Ireland’s ambassador to the United States, the diplomat told an audience of bio-tech executives at a breakfast meeting at the Grand Del Mar that, “despite all the travails and challenges, Ireland is very much open for business.” Ambassador Michael Collins came at the invitation of the Irish Network San Diego, a group of Irish-Americans whose mission is to foster connections between Ireland and the United States, and provide both social and business opportunities to Irish immigrants. The group’s president, Eilis McKay, and her husband, Neil, also a board member, are Rancho Santa Fe residents. Collins had a busy agenda of meetings and speeches during his visit, which began Sunday evening and concluded Monday. His day began Monday with the breakfast where he met with members of BIOCOM, an association of businesses in the life sciences. He spoke briefly with a reporter after his breakfast with the bio-tech executives, before departing for a mid-day speech at the Joan Kroc Center for Peace and Reconciliation at USD. Collins, who was part of the team that negotiated Ireland’s historic Good Friday peace accord in 1998, was scheduled to speak on “Contemporary Ireland and the Northern Ireland Peace Process.” Meetings with San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders and Police Chief William Landsdowne were scheduled before a Monday evening banquet back at the Grand Del Mar in Carmel Valley. Collins, who has held the ambassador’s post since 2007, said he has tried to visit most of the major U.S. cities during his tenure. One purpose for his visit, he said, was to support the local Irish-American community. But another key reason was to encourage investment in Ireland, which is trying to recover from the global recession that has plagued much of Europe and the United States. “Ireland is a very strong manufacturing center for the bio-tech sector,” he said. “I’m here to encourage people to look at Ireland as a European location for investment.” As part of the European Union and a member of the

Jenna Druck Center founder looks at ‘Real Rules of Life’ New book provides practical advice on coping with life’s obstacles BY KELLEY CARLSON CONTRIBUTOR

Life’s paths often contain occasional bumps, but sometimes, a person will stumble upon a huge sinkhole. Dr. Ken Druck, one of the nation’s pioneers in personal transformation, offers advice on how to deal with such obstacles in his new book, “The Real Rules of Life: Balancing Life’s Terms With Your Own.” “This book is about how life really is,” Druck said. “When we get real, we move ahead, move forward ... we become a better, higher expression of ourselves.” Each of the 23 chapters describes one of the “real” rules, and provides practical suggestions and exercises to cope. “Some (exercises) are fun, and some are very revealing right to the core,” Druck said. “I make all the issues actionable.” For example, in the chapter titled “Listening Is Love,” readers learn how and why it is important to tune in to others’ words and actions. They’re directed to an online “report card” to assess the effectiveness of their own skills; in turn, they can ask their friends and family to rate them, and then compare results. In another section, labeled “There Are No Deals: Life’s Real Terms,” people come to terms with the fact that life always has its say, and sometimes they’re forced to go to Plan B, Druck said in an interview. “We don’t get to play God,” he explained, and added the people must live with a sense of humility and flexibility. At the end of the chapter, individuals must recall the “deals” they have made with life, and are then asked to seek an outside perspective. The book is for anyone facing challenges and transitions; it could be relevant to people going through a di-

vorce, a business failure, or parenting a child who is strung out on drugs. It’s also for those who have reached the point in their lives when it’s time for a change, such as starting a business they have always wanted, changing jobs, or drawing the line with family. Druck said these rules apply equally to organizations, individuals, families, couples and communities. “I thought I’d take the distilled essence of everything I’ve learned, how to survive significant life loss, and write a book,” he said. The Del Mar resident drew much of his inspiration from his experience dealing with the sudden, unexpected death of his 21-year-old daughter, Jenna, in 1996. Jenna, a graduate of Torrey Pines High School, was killed in a bus accident in India while studying abroad with the Semester at Sea program. “The death of my oldest daughter still defies words,” Druck said. “I had absolutely no map when my daughter died. Nothing prepared me.” One of his ways to deal with the situation was to establish the Jenna Druck Center, which serves teen girls and bereaved families through the award-winning Families Helping Families and Spirit of Leadership programs. Also in the book, Ken Druck includes anecdotes from people he has worked with during his 35 years as a coach and consultant. Among his specialty areas are male psychology, executive coaching, organizational consulting, parent effectiveness, healing after loss, and the art of turning adversity into opportunity. Druck has been featured numerous times in print and broadcast media — making appearances on programs such as “Oprah” and “Larry King Live” — and has received honors such as the Visionary Leadership, Distinguished Contribution in Psychology, and Family Ad-

KEEP TALKING, WE’RE LISTENING.

Dr. Ken Druck vocate awards. Over the years, Druck has met thousands of families struggling to deal with catastrophes such as 911, the Columbine (Colo.) and Santana (Santee) high school shootings, Hurricane Katrina and the San Diego wildfires. In addition, he helped Chelsea King’s family through the ordeal of their daughter’s murder. In 2010, 17-year-old Chelsea disappeared after going for a run in Rancho Bernardo Community Park, and her lifeless body was later found next to Lake Hodges. Druck said people from all over the world had been contacting him for help, so a couple of years ago, he began contemplating another way to touch more lives and hearts. He found that when he wrote, he reached many more individuals. Druck had previously penned books such as “The Secrets Men Keep” and “How to Talk to Your Kids About School Violence,” and had contributed to the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series. Subsequently, he pulled back from day-to-day operations at the Jenna Druck Center and hired staff to help run the programs while he focused on a new publication. Originally about 500 pages, “The Real Rules of Life” was cut down to just over 200 pages, Druck said. It “was written with the reader in mind to make it easy to read without a lot of psychobabble,” he said. “It’s very point-blank and truthful.” The book was finally released May 15. “It feels like a birthing,” Druck said. “The due date is here, and I really feel like it See DRUCK, Page 26

A Place for Carmel Valley to Gather Before planning a single building, we set out to better understand the community’s needs and priorities. We spoke with thousands of neighbors and residents and took note of their ideas and suggestions. Over and over, we heard that Carmel Valley needs a central gathering place for local residents with a mix of compatible uses, including a specialty grocery store. We believe a truly successful Main Street can only come from close collaboration with the community. Over the years, we have made numerous changes to the plans based on feedback we received from neighbors and local residents, and we continue to make changes.

SD Jewish Academy student takes first place at prestigious global high school science competition San Diego Jewish Academy (SDJA) student Melissa Fagan received first place May 18 at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in Pittsburgh, Penn. Seven million students compete annually to receive an invitation to Intel as it is considered the top high school science competition in the world. Placing first at Intel is an enormous accomplishment. Simply being invited to Intel is an achievement as only 1,549 students were invited this year, but receiving a first place award means the recipient is in the top .000005 percent of science students worldwide. Intel gives only two first place awards in each of the 17 categories it judges. There are better odds of becoming a pro-athlete or winning an Academy Award than there are for placing first at Intel. “Melissa’s success at Intel is a testament to her hard work and dedication, but also speaks volumes about the quality of her teacher, Dr. Jane Willoughby, and the curriculum and faculty at SDJA,” said Dr. Jeff Davis, principal of the

She received a total of $16,000 in scholarships, which included special awards from the Office of Naval Research and Air Force Research Laboratory. In her project, Fagan sought to reduce the toxicity of silver in medical treatments. Silver is increasingly being used as an antiseptic and disinfectant to treat chronic wounds such as burns. Antibiotic resistant infections are becoming more prevalent in hospitals, which is causing an increase in the use of silver. The challenge of using silver is that it rapidly converts into inactive silver, which causes a need for frequent re-applications. Due to the re-applications, it is used in large concentrations, where it can be toxic to humans. Fagan embedded silver based antimicrobials into algi-

This is the 10th year that the Yale Club of San Diego has presented the award—a certificate from the Yale Club of San Diego and a book published by Yale University Press that was selected for this year’s winners. Each student honored with the award received “The Bridge at the End of the World: Capitalism, the Environment, and Crossing from Crisis to Sustainability,” by James Gustave Speth, dean of the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies at Yale, and a graduate of Yale Law School. His book, bearing a Yale Book Award bookplate, was chosen for the “Wide-ranging interest among high school students in issues pertaining to the environment and sustainability,” said Robert Longstreth, San Diego Superior Court judge and a member of the 2012 Yale Club of San Diego Book Award committee. “We can’t solve [today’s environmental] problems with more of the same approaches we’ve been using,” stated Author Speth. “Real solutions will require transformative change in the key features of this contemporary capitalism.” “And today’s young people are the ones most likely to come up with those changes,” Longstreth added. The other selected, award-winning juniors are: Melodyanne Cheng, Torrey Pines High School; Thomas Edman, La Jolla Country Day School; Nicholas Ferreirae, San Dieguito Academy; Melody Jung, Canyon Crest Academy; Nicholas Kelly, Patrick Henry High School; Melissa Kolenovic, Point Loma High School; Micah Lyle, Santa Fe Christian; David Mrdjenovich, Mt. Carmel High School; Emily Nyguen, The Bishop’s School; Julianne Preimesberger, Cathedral Catholic High School; Xavier Redondo, St. Augustine High School; Wright Smith, Coronado High School; Brandon Solis, Chula Vista High School; Brian Thuyen, University City High School; Kenneth Xu, Scripps Ranch High School. The Yale Club of San Diego Book Award was created to recognize outstanding high school students. The students were recommended by their high schools for academic achievement, outstanding personal character and intellectual promise.

Profile

Simon Sebag Montefiore

Accomplished author of ‘Jerusalem: The Biography’ advises aspiring writers to find a unique niche BY JOE TASH Don’t “agonize” over the start of a piece of writing, but instead just get it written, a best-selling author recently told three local high school students. Once the first draft is completed, the author said, the writer can polish the beginning. “All writing is about re-writing,” he said. Writer and historian Simon Sebag Montefiore dispensed the advice before his talk at the monthly meeting of the Rancho Santa Fe Literary Society on May 18 at the Grand Del Mar hotel. Montefiore was on hand to discuss his latest book, “Jerusalem,” a history of the Middle Eastern holy city, and the students were winners of an essay contest sponsored by the Literary Society. Montefiore, 46, of London, used his time with the students to lay out a halfdozen writer’s rules. He advised students that if they come up with a brilliant idea, not to share it with anyone. “In literature, like in espionage, careless talk can cost lives.” In 1991, Montefiore told the students, he traveled to the Caucasus, a region bordering Europe and Asia, which includes the

Russian separatist enclave of Chechnya, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and parts of Iran and Turkey. At the time, Montefiore said, few other Western reporters worked in the area, and newspapers ranging from the New York Times to the Times of London were eager to publish his stories, even though he was not an established journalist. “That led to my whole career, that first trip,” said Montefiore, who has written several historical volumes and one novel, all about either Russia or the Middle East. “Find some wrinkle in the weird material of the world no one else knows about.” The students, accompanied by their parents and teachers, sat on sofas and upholstered chairs around Montefiore in the hotel’s spacious lobby. Montefiore, a compact man with closecropped light-brown hair and blue eyes, wore a white button-down shirt, a Navy sport jacket and dark slacks. Theresa Bui, an 11th grader at Cathedral Catholic High School, won first place in the essay contest, and a $1,000 prize. Amber Gallant, a junior at San Dieguito Academy, and Cassandra Go, a senior at La Jolla

Quick Facts Name: Simon Sebag Montefiore Distinction: Montefiore is the author of four nonfiction historical works, including his latest, “Jerusalem: The Biography,” which was published in 2011. He also has written a novel, “Sashenka.” He is a lecturer and former journalist, and is working on his next history book, “The Romanovs.” Family: Montefiore lives in London with his wife, novelist Santa Montefiore, and their two children, ages 11 and 9. Interests: Reading and writing, hiking, working out and traveling. Reading: Considers “Blood Meridian,” by Cormac McCarthy, to be a “towering masterpiece of modern literature.” Music: Listens to Lady Gaga, and Russian romance music and jazz from the World War II era. Favorite films: Enjoyed “The Descendents” and “The American,” both starring George Clooney. Favorite getaway: Mauritius, an island nation in the Indian Ocean, off the southeast coast of Africa. Philosophy: “Life is an adventure and anything is possible.”

The contest and the Literary Society are sponsored by Northern Trust, the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center and this newspaper. In an interview with a reporter from this newspaper before he met the students, Montefiore said he was on a multi-city tour to promote his book that included stops in Las Vegas, Desert Springs, La Jolla, Beverly Hills and Santa Barbara, along with his talk at the Grand Del Mar. “I love America and I love being here,” he said. Montefiore, who is Jewish, said one reason he wanted to write the book had to do with his own fam-

ily’s ties to Jerusalem. A great-great-uncle, Moses Montefiore, made many trips to the city, even bringing back dirt from Jerusalem to be used for his own burial plot in England. He said he also wanted to create a “fresh history” of Jerusalem because of its central role in three of the world’s major religions — Judaism, Christianity and Islam — as well as its prominence in Middle East politics. The 650-page book covers 5,000 years of history, “from King David to Obama and Osama,” said Montefiore. “It’s blood-thirsty, it’s dramatic and sometimes it’s funny.” Along with being a historical account, said Monte-

fiore, “You could read it like a mini-series of conquerors, empresses, adventuresses and prophets.” “It became the holy city because of the Bible,” Montefiore said. “The Bible is the biography of Jerusalem. When the Bible became the universal book of Middle Eastern and Western civilization, Jerusalem came to life for everybody, wherever they were, from Massachusetts to Moscow.” The connection between America and Jerusalem is particularly strong, said Montefiore, because, “The Founding Fathers were people who absolutely believed in the paramountcy of Jerusalem.” On the night before his assassination, President

Abraham Lincoln spoke of wanting to visit Jerusalem, and the city was also visited by the American writers Mark Twain and Herman Melville, among others, Montefiore said. Montefiore said he had an American audience in mind when he wrote his book, and the volume seems to have hit its mark — recently, such political luminaries as former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger gave it rave reviews. A visiting professor at Buckingham University in England, Montefiore often lectures on history and current political topics at schools, universities and conferences. During his talk at the literary society luncheon, he described how Jerusalem’s population and prominence rose and fell over the years. “At times it’s been no more than a ruined monumental village with wonderful buildings,” he said. He described a horrific siege of the town in AD 70 by Titus, son of the Roman emperor, in which thousands died, and the Roman soldiers crucified as many as 500 Jews each day. Writing the book, he said, was a daunting task, because of Jerusalem’s long and complex history, and the scrutiny and criticism he knew the completed volume would face. “I barely slept for three years,” he said. “I realized if I pleased anybody too much, I’d have failed.”

RSF resident to present ‘Travel Photography’ lecture series From May 31- June 7, Rancho Santa Fe resident Reed Kaestner will be joining Silversea Cruises’ “Silver Shadow,” giving a series of “enrichment lectures” on “Travel Photography.” This will be his third such cruise with Silversea, having previously given talks on Alaska and Caribbean itineraries. The lectures cover all aspects of “Travel Photography,” including a discussion of composition, lens selection, getting the most from your camera, and finding interesting subjects. The three presentations are illustrated with hundreds of images Kaestner has taken from around the world, with an emphasis on local photographs. For more information, visit www.silversea.com. For the past 30 years, Kaestner has been taking photographs that have graced the covers of inflight magazines, appeared on billboards, been used in thousands of brochures, books, and advertisments around the world, and recently three images of his were selected for the “Bing.com” home page seen 6 million times each day. Besides the Bing.

com home pages, his photograph of a sailboat, used on the mast head of Netscape’s popular home portal, a few years ago, was seen an estimated 10 billion times over the course of two years, making him one of the most viewed photographers of all time. Whether on assignment, or shooting for “stock,” Kaestner has traveled to and photographed in 85 countries. Through his on board lectures, Reed Kaestner clinics, and “walk around” shore tours, participants will learn how to get the most out of their equipment and take travel photographs that look like they were shot by a “pro.”

Group helps residents live in balance with wildlife BY LINDA HUTCHISON Living as we do in San Diego County, homes sprawled from ocean to desert, around canyons, lagoons and bays, it’s not surprising we share space with much wildlife. Most of us are used to waking up to songbirds, watching hummingbirds hover in our gardens or gulls swoop down from high wires. And we are not always surprised when we open our front doors to see an opossum on the porch. But what do we do if we find abandoned baby rabbits in the garage or an injured animal or bird in the driveway? We can turn to Project Wildlife, an organization that has been helping San Diegans live in balance with wildlife for 40 years. What started in 1972 as a husband and wife team rescuing wild animals in Alpine and training others to do the same has since grown into one of the largest non-profit wildlife rehabilitation organizations in the United States. The group takes care of approximately 10,000 animals a year from more than 320 different species here in San Diego County, which is one of the most biologically diverse areas in the country, according to Sarah Whorley, Project Wildlife communications manager. Project Wildlife now includes a full-time staff of

PW Satellite Care volunteer Rae Dietsche, a member of the Hummingbird Team, feeds hummingbird hatchlings at her Poway home. nine, a part-time staff of 2025 veterinary technicians, and approximately 525 volunteers who do everything from office work and educational outreach to transporting and caring for animals, cleaning cages and running rehabilitation centers in their homes. The organization operates two triage centers where San Diego residents can drop off injured or abandoned animals. The North County center in Carlsbad is open only from mid-April to mid-September, the busiest time of the year,

when most baby animals are born. The central center, at 887½ Sherman St., off Morena Boulevard, is open year ‘round. After being admitted, each animal is examined and stabilized, given water and food if necessary. If it is a bird, it stays at the center, where care can include incubation and round-the-clock feeding for neo-natals, until the birds are ready for larger cages and, finally, release back into the wild. About 80 percent of the animals brought to the center are birds; the most common are the house finch, the house sparrow, and the mourning dove. Birds with special needs and all mammals are transported to one of Project Wildlife’s satellite rehabilitation centers, categorized by type of animal (bat, opossum, fox, rabbit, raccoon, skunk, small mammal, hummingbird, raptor (owls, hawks, falcons, etc.), duck, songbird, and sea/shorebirds). The most common mammals brought to the center are the Virginia opossum and the cottontail rabbit. In the busy season, this can mean as many as 100 animals a day, with people lining up down the street according to Whorley. In the less busy months, the average daily intake is about 1015 animals. The amount of

RSF Senior Scene: Medication-related problems: Managing your risk BY TERRIE LITWIN, RSF SENIOR CENTER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Medication Related Problems: Managing Your Risk Older adults, as a group, have more health conditions that require medication management. The average person over age 65 uses 4.5 prescription medications and two over-the-counter medications at any given time. Medication therapy in seniors presents multiple challenges. Adverse drug effects are frequently the source of problems commonly associated with aging such as confusion, impaired motor function, and depression. Good medication management in the seTerrie Litwin nior population involves identifying and resolving adverse medication events instead of treating them with additional medications. On Wednesday, May 30, at 2 p.m., Stephanie Matinpour, PharmD, CGP, will present “Medication Related Problems: Managing Your Risk”. During this presentation, you will learn from a Certified Geriatric Pharmacist what you can do to minimize your risk of medication related problems and how you can assist a loved one who is having difficulty safely managing their medications at home. Dr. Matinpour is a Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist who received her Doctor of Pharmacy degree from University of the Pacific School of Pharmacy, and completed her general Pharmacy Practice Residency at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in San Diego. She is a licensed pharmacist in the State of California and an active member of the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists. Bring your medications with you and remain after the talk to speak with a pharmacist about your specific medication-related questions! Sleep Medicine Expert to Speak According to the National Sleep Foundation, along with the physical changes that occur with aging, changes to our sleep patterns are also part of the normal aging process. It is a common misconception that the need for sleep decreases as we age. Your physical and emotional health depends on good sleep. Truly restful sleep gives your body the time needed to regenerate and allows you to fight off illness, maintain a positive attitude, and enjoy each day. Lack of sleep can cause a host of problems, from irritability and fatigue, to chronic stress and depression. Over time, lack of quality sleep can contribute to serious health risks. A good night’s sleep is a serious matter for young and old alike. Sleep medicine is a recognized medical sub-specialty. Physicians who specialize in sleep medicine focus on helping people who have persistent trouble with their sleep. They can detect and treat both common and rare sleep disorders. Please join us on Friday, June 8, at 2 p.m., for an informative presentation by Anoop Karippot, M.D. Dr. Karippot is board certified in psychiatry, neurology, and sleep medicine. He is on staff at Scripps Memorial Hospital and Scripps Mercy Hospital.

HEALTH continued from page 2 its peak—no one then could imagine the expense of things like bypass surgeries or MRIS or biotech drugs. It was also based on seniors staying at 5 percent of the population and now that figure is 15 percent and going to get even worse, leaving the future seriously underfunded, Hertzka said. In 1984 there was the “epiphany” that Medicare was going broke and the solution was price controls on hospitals. Hospitals started cost shifting, private insurance premiums skyrocketed and employers dropped coverage. From 1988 to 1994, more cost shifting occurred for physicians and medical devices, more provider cost shifting and more premiums rose and employers continued to drop coverage, Hertzka said. “As opposed to care for the uninsured, Medicare is the number one reason for cost-shifting into the private sector and, as such, has been a major driver of the number of uninsured,” Hertzka said. In 2009, the health care system was flawed in

all areas, he said. In access, 50 million were uninsured, 90 million in underfunded Medicare and Medicaid, there were 5-10 million free riders and 30 million low-income adults in a safety net. In cost, the nation faced a $1 trillion hospital infrastructure. “In France or Canada they wouldn’t let this stuff get built,” Hertzka said, adding that seniors are treated like “40-year-olds.” “This is the only place an 80-yearold can get a transplant. It’s great but let’s not pretend it’s not going to cost more,” he said, adding that other problems include the fact that everyone is paid more, there is administrative excess and uncoordinated care of chronic disease. Hertza contends that quality dipped due to the practice of defensive medicine, which includes lack of a good date on best practices because hospitals and clinics have to become competitive and don’t share how they’re treating certain issues. Tackling the uninsured was a way to deal with some of the issues. Demographics of the uninsured include adults with incomes who can afford coverage (8 percent), those less than 18 years old (20 percent), adults at 200-

“This is the only place an 80-year-old can get a transplant. It’s great but let’s not pretend it’s not going to cost more.” 400 percent of the Federal Poverty Line (FPL) (8 percent), and adults living below 200 percent FPL make up 65 percent,” Hertzka said. There is little evidence that many of these adults will respond to coverage, he said. Universal health care coverage will require some of the uninsured to be incentivized, and many more to be subsidized up to 100 percent. Hertzka said that a good starting plan might be strong incentives for catastrophic coverage in combination with insurance reform; capping the employee income tax exclusion for health insurance based on benefit design; and using the resulting $20-50 billion for child coverage expansion, subsidies for middle income workers, and expanded infrastructure for low-income uninsured.

He said problematic ideas for providing health care to the uninsured would be a weak individual mandate combined with guaranteed issue, using Medicaid as the primary vehicle to provide increased access to lowincome adults, and taxing the health care system and increasing cost shifting to fund an expansion of access rather than capping the employee income tax exclusion. What passed in March 2010 were all the problematic ideas, he said. The PPACA full implementation begins on January 1, 2014: individual mandate, Medicaid to all adults at below 133 percent FPL, state insurance exchanges become operational and subsidies begin. The mandate applies to very few people, Hertzka said: all below 133 percent FPL, all above 400 percent and all above 250 percent are exempted. Additionally, Hertzka said that the mandate is weak as successful mandates have penalties at or above 100 percent of premium. In contrast, Hertzka said candidate Mitt Romney’s Romneycare has real penalties that drive people to get

insurance. The PPACA is a good deal for individual market victims of insurance company discrimination (50,000 so far), unemployed post-adolescents up to age 26 and their parents (2 million), some small business owners and their employees (300,000 so far), some early retirees (up to 1 million) and seniors with high drug costs (2-4 million). He said it is not so good for 16 to 30 million new Medicaid recipients who will have very limited physician access and may end up in experimental managed care plans. Hertzka said it is also a bad deal for most of the 170 million currently insured who will see much higher premiums due to cost shifts from basic insurance reforms, the weak mandate and ongoing underfunding of government plans. With the passage of the PPACA, Hertzka said it is not a shock that legislation that provides direct benefits to approximately five million people at the expense of over 220 million remains unpopular. Even 26 months after passage over 50 percent of the population wants PPACA repealed and 41 states are challenging some aspect of it. “It does nothing to address the big four drivers of high health care costs in the USA, most notably hospital conglomerates will grow under PPACA while patient cost-sharing will shrink,” Hertzka said.

ROAD continued from page 1 However, soon after the curbs were again illegally painted green again. The green is not the same as the official county color and represents three spaces on La Granada and four on Paseo Delicias. Parking violations are not enforceable on those unofficial green curbs and the county will likely have to come back and

paint over them again. In order to consider making those spaces timed spaces, a request could be made of the RSF Association. The matter would then go before the county traffic advisory committee and have to be approved by the county supervisors. Board member Dick Doughty suggested that maybe the illegal painting is proof that the request has been made.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

MUSIC continued from page 1 ent can’t supervise an internship or sign off on English or math for example. He said the same rules apply to PE, and the ISPE statute is clear. “Music teachers can’t be giving credit for PE,” he said. “You must have it supervised by a professional, and they must have a million-dollar liability.” Schmitt said other school districts have been sued after students were injured during ISPE under the supervision of non-professionals. The district is legally vulnerable, he said, because schools give credit for ISPE. “We’re not going to allow any more unsupervised kids doing this because we’re liable, so we’re moving it to a supervised program,” he said. So, beginning this fall, incoming seventh-grade students at the district’s four middle schools and all Canyon Crest Academy and San Dieguito Academy high school students can no longer have parents and music teachers sign off on ISPE. Music students can still sign up for ISPE, as an additional class, but it must be with a licensed professional who carries liability insurance. The ISPE policy change will not affect this fall’s eighth-graders and students at Torrey Pines High School and La Costa Canyon High School until the 2013-2014 school year. Licensed professionals can include insured professional coaches, but Schmitt said ISPE students don’t have to be athletes. Participation in any community organization such as the YMCA or Boys & Girls Club, which offers scholarships, is also acceptable. “The only thing that’s different is we’re not allowing music teachers to sign off on PE,” he said. The application period for ISPE opened on April 6 and closes Aug. 17. The goal, a district letter states, is for all students to take regular PE, but the district recognizes that Independent Study PE might be more appropriate for several categories of students: exceptionally gifted athletes, students wanting to take an advanced course not offered by the district, students with an impacted schedule, those with medical conditions, and those who have already fulfilled their PE requirement. Music students, Schmitt said, are considered

to have impacted schedules. A district website with a six-minute video tutorial guides students through the ISPE registration process [www.sduhsd.net/parents_ students/ispe.htm]. One flick of a pen Schmitt said he and his staff began developing the plan last fall and solidified it in Jan. Many parents were surprised to hear about the new policy, learning of the change only after their children registered for 20122013 classes in March and April. In mid-April, when alarm bells went off throughout the music community, the district held meetings with principals, counselors, staff members, music booster leaders and the public to explain the policy and provide clear instructions to help music students register – in some cases, re-register – for classes. “We’ve spent the last month communicating the information,” Schmitt said. Charlotte Goldstein, a Carmel Valley Middle School parent whose son will be attending Canyon Crest Academy this fall as a ninth-grader, said she understands the goal was not to destroy the music program but believes the change will nonetheless have a deleterious effect. “The worst crime the district did was not communicating,” said Goldstein. She said district staff did not understand nor explain the change adequately, causing many students to drop music and enroll in regular PE. She also worried that many high-achieving students who take private music lessons and may also play in youth orchestras will no longer take music in school, because the new ISPE sign-up system is complex and they may be reluctant to add another structured after-school activity to an already over-burdened schedule. This, she said, would lower the quality of the overall program and make it less fulfilling for younger students to join. Libby Scott, one of the original members of a movement that brought music instruction back to San Dieguito schools in the late 1990s, also expressed concern. “When I heard that SDUHSD had to make the changes for Band PE, my heart stopped,” Scott said in an email. “The entire community worked so hard all those years ago to bring music back to the schools and,

with one flick of a pen and a miscommunication, [this] could totally undermine everything we did and bring it to a screeching halt.” Scott praised Schmitt for saying that “all deadlines are in pencil for band kids and that no music student will be left behind.” She also agreed the new policy is needed “but just not on this timeline,” suggesting a oneyear delay in implementing the new policy. She also suggested an expedited, simplified ISPE sign-up process. “I don’t think it is fair that music students should have to spend such an inordinate amount of time and effort to sign up for a class that should be part of the curriculum,” she said. Award-winning programs Distressed over the lack of music in local schools, parent activists Patti Malmuth and Libby Scott met in 1996 with dozens of music supporters to form the Foundation to Advance Music Education. Three years later, FAME’s efforts paid off. Today, the district’s music programs are considered some of the best in San Diego County, with over 1,400 SDUHSD music students and music teachers at every school. “The breakthrough came when the San Dieguito Union High School District agreed to partner with the Boys & Girls Club to offer Independent Study PE credit to students wanting to take band/music,” Malmuth said in an email. Scott said there is no room for music, PE and foreign language in students’ schedules. “In SDUHSD, most students feel compelled to take foreign language … to go to college,” she said. ISPE offered a way around the dilemma. But music supporters say the new policies threaten the future of music in the district, primarily because the lack of adequate and timely information about the new ISPE option may have affected music students’ course selections. “The changes to the registration process occurred so late in the game that no one knew what to do nor how to do it,” Scott said. “The paperwork was incorrect and did not mention the ISPE music option that was available.” Students have already registered, with no way to contact them, she said. The district cannot mail a signup form to students, “as that would put them in a situation where they were ‘advertising’ an elective,” she said.

Another hurdle, Scott said, is that the new ISPE regulations will cost families money and demand a greater time commitment. “The kids need to find a fully insured physical education program outside of the district … [and] find time for it in their busy schedules,” she said. Lastly, she said the new procedure to sign up for ISPE is arduous, noting that after-school club sports cannot count for ISPE. “The paperwork needed to sign up for ISPE,” Scott said, “is so difficult that some parents and students might look at it and just decide it’s too much of a pain to do.” Scott said the origins of Band PE came from marching band, which allowed music students to get physical exercise while learning and playing music. Sharilyn Parr, parent of an incoming seventh-grader at Earl Warren Middle School, agreed, saying, “Somewhere along the way, the schools stopped marching band. In my view, this was the big mistake, especially in a school like Torrey Pines that has a big emphasis on sports.” Marching band, Parr said, also gave non-athletic kids a way to participate in football games and other high school sporting events, and suggested the district “return a marching band program to the schools so kids can get their exercise and their music at the same time.” Parr said she was not against the policy change because she believes the prior policy was wrong. “Children shouldn’t be able to get out of PE by doing band,” she said. But she did say the new policy “will really hurt the music program.” Scott said the district is allowing an extra course per semester for music students and Schmitt gets “a gold star” for “going beyond the call of duty” to keep the program successful. An ardent music advocate, she remains concerned about the risk to the music program, though, saying the ISPE policy change blindsided everyone. “Not only does music education provide all of the obvious benefits, but also provides students the manner in which to think creatively and communally,” Scott said. “It’s something like learning a foreign language and performing – a living art form – all together. There is absolutely nothing like it.”

The local group felt “privileged and honored” by the ambassador’s visit, said Neil. “It’s a little like the shepherd visiting his flock.” The Good Friday peace accord set the stage for the emergence of the “Celtic Tiger,” the nickname for Ireland’s robust economic growth from the mid-1990s through 2007, said Neil McKay. “I left Ireland in 1980, not because I had to, but because I had a profound sense

Druck’s new book is a must-have for everyone’s library, said Martha Lawrence, executive editor at The Ken Blanchard Cos. “I first read it when I was going through the darkest time in my life — my son, who’d been missing for more than two years, had recently turned up in a psychiatric hospital,” she said. “Ken’s book made me feel less alone in my despair and gave me hope that ‘this too, shall pass.’ Because Ken has lived through the worst — the death of his daughter — he writes with authority about turning tragedy into transformation. It’s one of the wisest books I’ve ever read.” Now that his latest book has hit the shelves, Druck plans to conduct workshops and talk about “The Real Rules of Life.” “I’ll be taking my message to different parts of the U.S. and world,” he said. In addition, he plans to remain an active member of the San Diego community. Druck is still involved with the Jenna Druck Center, on a lesser scale, and he has been a part of the San Dieguito Alliance for Drug Free Youth for 25 years. Another area of concern for him is

Double the fun with two Pinter one-acts from North Coast Rep

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY DIANA SAENGER Nobel Prize-winning playwright, screenwriter, director and actor Harold Pinter (1930-2008) was one of Great Britain’s most influential modern dramatists. His work spanned more than 50 years and included the popular “The Homecoming” (1964) and “The French Lieutenant’s Woman” (1981). North Coast Repertory Theatre Artistic Director David Ellenstein will direct “Two By Pinter: The Lover and The Dumb Waiter,” bringing these one-acts to the stage through June 17. “I fell in love with them as a young man and now, older, I find they have more impact, and I respect them even more,” Ellenstein said. “Pinter’s work is so smart and twisted in its understanding of how the human mind and human behavior works; it’s off-putting and dangerous while also being extremely funny.” “The Lover” (1962) has been labeled “a sexy drama on one hand and an iconic comedy on the other.”

If you go What: Two By Pinter: “The Lover” and “The Dumb Waiter” When: Matinees, evenings to June 17 Where: North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach Tickets: $32-$49 Box Office: (858) 4811055 Website: northcoastrep.org

A scene from ‘Two By Pinter: The Lover and The Dumb Waiter.’

Pinter leads the audience to believe that there are three characters in the play: the wife, the husband and the lover. But the lover who comes to call in the afternoons is revealed to be

the husband adopting a role. “The Dumb Waiter” (2005) unveils the relationship of two hitmen trying to pass the time while waiting for their next job. As they busy themselves, they become perplexed by a dumbwaiter in the room that delivers unordered food. Called a “comedy of menace,” it has several unexpected twists. Staging two distinctly different dramas is a feat in

itself: The sets must be swapped out during intermission. “Marty Burnett, our wizard, has figured out how the one set folds in upon itself so it goes from being an upper-class Windsor cottage to a run-down basement,” boasted Ellenstein. The cast of “The Lover” includes Mark Pinter (no relation to the playwright) as Richard, and Elaine Rivkin as Sarah, the milkman’s role goes to

Richard Baird. The cast of “The Dumb Waiter” features Frank Corrado as Ben and Richard Baird as Gus. Ellenstein said he worked with Mark Pinter for many years, most recently in NCRT’s “The Lion in Winter,” and “Becky’s New Car.” “He also has quite an illustrious television career,” Ellenstein said. “He’s great in ‘The Lover.’ Elaine is from Chicago and making her first appearance with us. She’s fabulous, and I hope to work with her many more times.” This is Baird’s ninth show at NCRT, and he’s playing opposite Frank Pinter. “Frank is a Pinter expert who produces the ‘Pinter Fortnightly’ series in Seattle,” Ellenstein said. “In 2010, he was awarded the William and Eva Fox Foundation Fellowship for Distinguished Achievement by the Theatre Communications Group, and he’ll work on four Pinter plays to be produced in Seattle

From the darkest corners of reality, to the land of the unexplained, Impro Theatre’s “Twilight Zone Unscripted,” pays homage to Rod Serling’s breakthrough sci-fi series, 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, May 29 at North Coast Repertory Theatre. Completely improvised episodes are created with every performance. Tickets $20 at (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org this summer. “He’s also friends with Henry Wolfe, one of Pinter’s childhood friends, so if we had questions about anything, Frank just called him and Henry would tell us Pinter’s perspective from the original production.”

New menu choices every two weeks tempts tastebuds at Mia Francesca BY KELLEY CARLSON hicago-based restaurant chain Mia Francesca recently brought its Midwestern hospitality to the Del Mar Highlands Town Center. From the moment guests enter the classically decorated establishment, until they’re amply filled with Italian fare and ready to head home, the staff makes an effort to learn each person’s name and tastes. “We like guests to feel at home,” said Scott Harris, executive chef and owner. “We’re very welcoming people.” First established in the Windy City in 1992, Mia Francesca can now be found in five states, and the Del Mar site is the 24th to open. The local eatery — just months old — attracts a range of customers, from those donning shorts and T-shirts to others sporting suits. Children are welcomed with crayons and a menu offering items such as pizza, pasta and grilled chicken. Babies are given bibs with the phrase “I ate at Francesca’s.” In addition, kids eat free on Mondays. There are several seating areas to accommodate singles, couples and groups of all sizes; parties of 15 or more can even participate in Tavoli di Amici (Table of Friends), family-style dining with several courses. Two rooms comprise the elegant main dining areas, which feature chandeliers, wood floors, and tables draped in white cloth. Guests can admire sepia-toned photos capturing scenes in Italian villages, shot by Paul Elledge, or gaze outside at a fountain

This week: ■ Mia Francesca’s Linguine Arlecchino through floor-to-ceiling windows that also serve as doors. A TV in the bar provides sports programming. The shaded patio can be a respite from the summer sun, yet there are heaters and glass walls that help block the breeze on chillier days. On Friday and Saturday nights, Mia Francesca customers can listen to the sounds of jazz bands emanating from the Plaza. At other times, pop music plays as background noise. One of the unique aspects of Mia Francesca is that about half of the menu (which is handwritten) changes every two weeks. “I remember when I was a customer (at a different Mia Francesca’s), I never knew what (I was going to be offered) — that’s the beauty of it,” said Luigi Negroni, chef at the Del Mar location. Of course, there are some staples, such as Carpaccio con Asparagi, consisting of sliced raw sirloin, capers, tomatoes, mushrooms, asparagus and

Monday is Lasagna Night, with a choice of vegetable or meat fillings. Tuesday features an allyou-can-eat, family-style, spaghettiand-meatballs dinner, which also includes Caesar salad, garlic bread and tiramisu. It’s $10 for children 12 and younger, and $15 for adults. “It’s like grandma’s dinner on Tuesday nights,” Harris said. He noted guests often take their leftover food home and make another meal out of it. Guests can top off their meal with a dessert such as gelato, sorbet, Chocolate Cheesecake with salted chocolate caramel, or Cannoli with ricotta filling, chocolate chips and sprinkled pistachio.

After reading more than 46,000 books and 1.1 million pages, Solana Santa Fe students were recognized for their reading achievements during the school’s Books and Beyond Gold Medal Ceremonies on May 16. Each year the elementary school promotes reading through the Books and Beyond program. This year’s theme was “Reading Rocks at SSF!” Students in all grade levels kept track of the number of pages or books they read each week. Those who completed 2,400 pages or 120 books received a medal. The 181 student who read 4,800 words or 240 books were also treated to a pizza party. Veronica Reist, SSF’s curriculum resource teacher, along with parent volunteers Nora Balikian, Monica Hendricks and Kathleen Schreiber, coordinated the Books & Beyond reading program. During the ceremonies, Reist talked about the benefits of reading and shared research compiled by SSF’s fifth grade teacher Becky Gauthier. She told students that reading has taken a backseat to interactive computer experiences that typically don’t include very much reading. Reist encouraged students to read at least 15-25 minutes a week. “There are numerous studies that show that reading improves children’s comprehension, background knowledge, vocabulary, fluency and writing,” said Reist. “It is only through volumes of reading that many students are able to internalize the comprehension skills and gain the reading experience they must acquire for academic success.” — Stacey Phillips

Bound together, the art of books goes on display Old books can be found deconstructed, cut, twisted, folded, fanned, and distorted into new objects of beauty and intrigue at the fourth annual San Diego Book Arts National Juried Exhibition, May 26-July 8 at Geisel Library on the UC San Diego campus. The 57 pieces selected for this show by juror Carolee Campbell (out of 200 entered from 17 states), represent the full range of contemporary American book making. There are examples of fine printing using traditional letterpress techniques with lead type, incorporating limited edition prints, exquisitely bound. Rarely content to present “just the facts,” humans have been decorating, adorning, and illustrating the book since its inception. The artist’s book is, in a sense, the ultimate expression of this activity, according to Campbell. In her introduction to the exhibition catalog, she writes, “The best books being made today, as in the past, become greater than the sum of their parts. They sing with metaphor. They captivate. They hold the viewer in their thrall and demand to be returned to

Art on display at the fourth annual San Diego Book Arts National Juried Exhibition at Geisel Library on the UC San Diego campus again and again in order to rediscover that high energy transfer, that synergistic flow from part to part and back to whole.” Campbell inaugurated Ninja Press in 1984. She designs, illustrates, hand sets in type, prints, and binds each edition of books. She is committed to making the beautifully executed book, as well as to the continual investigation of form using unusual materials, harnessing both as expressions of book art for the 21st century

Mae West unveiled in comedy at The Cygnet

Mae West

If you go What: “Dirty Blonde” When: May 17-June 17 Where: Cygnet Theatre Company, Old Town Stage, 4040 Twiggs St., San Diego Tickets: $29-$44 Box Office: (619) 3371525 Web: cygnettheatre. com

BY DIANA SAENGER Claudia Shear’s “Dirty Blonde,” nominated for five Tony Awards in 2000, comes to the Cygnet Theatre stage through June 17. Directed by Cygnet’s Sean Murray, the play journeys through the life of actress/comedian Mae West, revealing plenty about her career, as well some history that might surprise some. “Dirty Blonde” has been labeled a “bawdy, funny, sexy and touching contemporary love story.” Spouting those famous double-entendres West was known for is actress Melinda Gilb. Actor Steve Gunderson plays her soul mate. Gilb said she finds an enormous challenge in playing such an iconic star as Mae West. “I’m portraying her at age 16 and there’s no movie or tape of her at 16, so who knows what she was like then,” Gilb said. “Then there’s the classic Mae. It’s not just a walk or an eye roll or a way of speaking, she kind of exuded this sexuality thing. And then there’s this other relationship that weaves in and out of the entire story “Mae West was a pioneer, a business woman, and at one time the highest paid actor in Hollywood. She didn’t use sexuality to move her career, although it didn’t hurt, but that’s just who she was. She was so ahead of her time. She fought to have African-American people in her movies and wrote plays for gays and had them produced on Broadway. What she did, she did well. There was no one like her. Director Murray said what he likes best about the cast is that “these actors can make you laugh out loud while tugging at your heartstrings.” Mae West Fast Facts Born: Aug. 17, 1893 in Brooklyn Died: Nov. 22, 1980 in Los Angeles Height: 5’ 0”

Weight: 121 pounds Entertainment career: Spanned seven decades Autobiography: In 1959, she released her Goodness Had Nothing to Do with It, which went on to become a bestseller.

Three specialty retailers added to Del Mar Highlands Town Center Three specialty retail stores have been added to the Del Mar Highlands Town Center – Leaf & Kettle, baker & olive and Sunglass Cabana. The stores join a variety of contemporary dining, shopping and entertainment options attracted to the popular shopping center following its recent $20 million renovation. “Leaf & Kettle, baker & olive and Sunglass Cabana are a welcome addition to what is becoming an incredible diversity of dining, shopping and entertainment options at the Del Mar Highlands Town Center,” said Elizabeth Schreiber, vice president and general manager of the Del Mar Highlands Town Center. “The re-imagining of the shopping center has proven a tremendous success and asset to the community.” A gourmet foods store specializing in fresh olive oils and balsamic vinegars, baker & olive, is expanding from its current location in Encinitas to a second store at the Del Mar Highlands Town Center. The shop is also known for its selection of specialty food items including honey, jams, spices, rubs, and sweet treats and its expertise in all things gourmet. Sunglass Cabana is a New York-based retailer of highend, fashion and prescription sunglasses. The store also offers a variety of sun protection eyewear accessories. Among the brands carried by the Sunglass Cabana are Gucci, Christian Dior, Oakley and Tom Ford. Leaf & Kettle will offer its customers a fascinating selection of premium loose teas and teaware from around the world.

To your health: Avoiding summertime injuries and illness BY RONEET LEV, M.D., SCRIPPS HEALTH Summer is just around the corner, and that means more outdoor sports, longer beach days—and a greater risk of some injuries and illnesses. As an emergency room physician, I see plenty of warm-weather mishaps. Fortunately, there are several steps you can take to avoid a visit to the emergency department. Many of the most common injuries I see are the result of motor vehicle accidents. With more road trips and tourists in the summer months, there are more opportunities for accidents. Every time you’re in a car, even if you are just going up the street, make sure everyone is bucked in and children are in an age-appropriate car or booster seat. These basic precautions can help keep you safe in the event of an accident, and are often the difference between life and death. Head injuries resulting from skateboarding, bicycling or rollerblading are also more common in summer. California law requires children under age 18 to wear helmets when participating in these activities, but they’re a good idea for adults as well—helmets can significantly help reduce head and brain injuries. A good helmet will firmly but comfortably touch the head all the way around, remaining level and stable enough to resist even violent shakes or hard blows. It should be as low on the head as possible to maximize side coverage and secured with a strap that’s comfortably snug. Nearly everyone who has been on a skateboard or rollerblades has fallen on their outstretched hands at least once, which is why wrist factures are so common with these sports. Simply wearing wrist guards could help avoid most of these broken bones, as well as scraped hands and twisted fingers. Because San Diego beaches are packed in the summer, and many people have access to swimming pools as well, water safety is essential. Know how to swim. Check the American Red Cross, YMCA or local community

pool for swimming courses for people of any age and swimming ability. Never swim alone, no matter how strong you are. Stay in a designated swimming area within view of a lifeguard whenever possible. If you’re swimming in the ocean, ask about rip currents or dangerous areas before you go in, and make sure you have enough energy to swim back to shore. If you do get caught in a current, don’t try to swim against it – you’ll get very tired, very quickly. Try to stay relaxed and swim parallel to shore, and you should be able to swim out of it. If you are going to ride on a jet ski, water ski or wakeboard, always wear a lifejacket. Make sure someone on the boat is keeping an eye on the skier at all times (and not driving the boat at the same time). Alcohol and boating can be a deadly combination, so never operate a boat or jet ski while drinking. Even in our temperate climate, heat can be an issue. Each year there are 400 deaths from heat-related causes. The very young and the elderly are most susceptible to heat illness, but when the mercury rises, anyone can be affected. When it’s hot outside, it’s important to drink plenty of water or a sports drink, avoid alcohol and stay in a well-ventilated area, such as an air-conditioned house. It’s also a good idea to wear a hat and loosefitting clothes. If you begin to feel hot or lightheaded, stop your activity, get out of the sun, drink fluids and rest. Serious signs of heat-related illness include profuse sweating, muscle cramps, fatigue, weakness, dizziness, disorientation, nausea and vomiting. If you experience any of these signs, you need to seek prompt medical attention. Summer is a perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors. With a few precautions and forethought, it can also be a very safe season. Roneet Lev, M.D., is an emergency medicine physician with Scripps. “To Your Health” is brought to you by the physicians and staff of Scripps.

Gardening guru Mel Bartholomew reaps global harvest Mel Bartholomew is the author of “Square Foot Gardening,” from Rodale Press (1981 and updated in 2006) that sold two-million copies thus far, making it one of the bestselling garden books in America. Its success led Bartholomew to create the nonprofit Square Foot Gardening Foundation with humanitarian projects all over the globe. Its mission: Solve world hunger by using the “teach a man to fish” theory. Participants actually teach mothers and children how to feed themselves using the SFG method. Bartholomew has been included in Who’s Who twice — once for his engineering career and recently for his horticultural and humanitarian accomplishments. A civil engineer and graduate of Georgia Tech, he built a consulting engineering firm specializing in site and utility design. When he retired at age 42, he took up gardening as a hobby. As the saying goes, the rest is history …

San Diego Self Storage launches ‘Bottles for Babies’ campaign to benefit military families San Diego Self Storage (SDSS) announced that it is launching the inaugural “Bottles for Babies” collection campaign in honor of military veterans during the Memorial Day weekend beginning May 25, and ending on June 30 to benefit deserving military families. The campaign will collect baby bottles and/or $5 to $20 donations to purchase baby bottles at 17 SDSS facilities through the nonprofit organization MOM4USA. MOM4USA is a 501c 3 nonprofit organization that provides baby care packages to first-time active-duty parents, wounded warrior veterans and active-duty reservists. www.MOM4USA.org. According to Steven Teixeira, SDSS director of property management, “SDSS is proud to sponsor this collection which is being launched during Memorial Day weekend to not only commemorate our fallen military heroes from the U.S. Armed Forces, but to also celebrate a new generation of military babies whose parents can use additional support for their newborn infants. We discovered through MOM4USA that families are in need of basic necessities particularly when they are starting a family, so we decided to support that cause through this campaign, which we hope to make an annual event.” San Diego Self Storage facilities that will participate in the baby bottle campaign are located in the following communities: Carlsbad; Carmel Valley; Eastlake; Encinitas; Golden Triangle; Jamacha Point; La Jolla; Mira Mesa; National City; North County (Escondido); Temecula; Olivenhain; Poway; Solana Beach; Sorrento Mesa Otay Crossing; Otay Mesa; and Sorrento Valley.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Belly dancing, parties add to Solana Beach lady’s ‘beauty lounge’ concept Bella Sareena offers more than just facials BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

On any given day, you might walk in to Bella Sareena Beauty Lounge and find a belly dancing class or a teenage girl’s beauty-centered birthday party taking place. Or, you may smell the steeping mint leaves in owner Orly Perez’s homemade tea, or you may hear the majestic vocals and guitar strums of the girl at the framing shop next door practicing her tunes. That’s all in addition to the variety of allnatural health and beauty services you can find there. “I wanted a space where I could do more than just beauty,� said Perez, an esthetician who opened the business earlier this year at 128 E. Cliff St. in Solana Beach. Perez, a native-born Israeli who now lives in Solana Beach, said she puts a big focus on her Old World customs and Middle Eastern values. The bohemian, artistic decor and soothing instrumental music hit you as you walk in the lounge, which features a Moroccan tea bar. Perez uses fresh herbs from an on-site garden in her concoctions — such as mint and orange blossom — which she offers to every guest. Bringing in her belly dancing instructor to teach a class once a week also speaks to the lounge’s Middle Eastern charm. “It’s something that I love; that’s why I have it here,� she said. “It’s not like aerobics or zumba. It’s a very feminine dance and it fits with the whole theme.� She said she was inspired to put on parties for girls to teach the importance of health and beauty at a young age. At these parties, guests can make their own lip glosses, per-

form mini-facials with chocolate and clay masks and do Moroccan foot scrubs while eating Moroccan pastries and

drinking tea. “In this whole movement of beauty that has come about, we’ve lost appreciation for the basics,� she said, referring to the unnatural or possibly damaging practices that have become popular. “This next generation needs to know how to simplify and enjoy who they are.� Orly’s relationship with her own daughter, 5-year-old Sareena — the business’s namesake — is also an inspiration to encourage mothers and daughters to enjoy beauty services together. She specializes in teens with acne, as well as pregnant moms experiencing hormonal-induced skin problems. “When I was pregnant with Sareena I started getting hyper-pigmentation like crazy so I started getting facials and I realized they really do work,� said Orly. “That’s what inspired me to become an esthetician� “I know it must be really hard for teenagers,� she continued. “What I do is worth it just to see the smiles on their faces and their renewed confidence when they get a facial.� Bella Sareena carries a variety of professional skin products, and Orly specializes in mineral makeup and doing makeovers for special events. She also offers microdermabrasion, eyelash extensions, specialty prescription facials and spray tan packages.

Fiesta Del Sol steps up parking, food offerings for 2012 fest BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

Seven free parking lots, a doubledecker shuttle bus and inexpensive pedicabs are just a few measures added to Fiesta Del Sol to make the 2012 celebration more accommodating than ever, organizers say. With more than 50,000 festival-goers expected to attend, organizers at the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce put their heads together this year to find ways to mitigate parking, promote Solana Beach as a car-free vacation spot and get visitors to enjoy local businesses in addition to the festival. “We feel like we’ve accomplished all the goals we wanted,” said chamber president Carolyn Cohen. “It’s a huge effort and everyone is working really hard.” In addition to seven added free parking lots along South Sierra Avenue and Via de la Valle, the Amtrak and Coaster are offering two tickets for the price of one, and the chamber is offering free gift bags for those who come to the free festival via foot, bike or train. There will also be a designated bike parking area on Lomas Santa Fe adjacent to the train station. Bicycle pedi-cabs will be offering rides to and from the parking lots for $3 to $5 dollars a ride, depending on how far the lot is. During the previous 32 Fiesta Del Sol celebrations, attendees have not been enjoying the shops and restaurants of Solana Beach, Cohen said. This year, however, the chamber is working with a number of businesses along Highway 101, on Cedros Avenue, and in the city’s shopping centers by offering discounts to festival-goers. “Retailers have not generally liked the

festival, but this year everybody is so excited,” Cohen said, adding that there will also be jazz performances to entertain shoppers in the Cedros Design District — one at the corner of Rosa Street and another in front of Leaping Lotus. Another huge venture for Fiesta Del Sol organizers is a new partnership with Antengo, a company that is offering a smartphone application that will map out the festival, discounted stores, parking lots and food trucks, in addition to offering a detailed music schedule. Cohen said organizers are stepping up food offerings a notch, with a gourmet food truck festival taking place inside the festival itself. “Gourmet food trucks right now are the hottest thing,” said Cohen. “They make really incredible food and we wanted to upgrade our fiesta food.” Cohen said kid-friendly foods like kettle corn and Italian ice will still be available, but in the kids’ section of the fest.

Your Family Matters: Midlife crisis? BY DR. KEITH KANNER How come every time a guy turns 50 and buys himself a sports car, it is assumed he must be going through a “midlife crisis?” Why can’t he finally decide that half his life is over and it’s time to take better care Dr. Keith Kanner of himself and get his act together. The concept of mortality does appear to carry a lot of weight in terms of helping people finally decide to make some changes, even more so than New Year’s resolutions which repeat year after year. The problem, however, is that society and stereotypes often turn obvious change into some sort of problem. When people make changes often times the stereotype is that they must be “on drugs” or going through some sort of crisis. Why can’t the change just be part of an awakening or psychological growth? Take our 50-year-old example, Ray, and a look into why he decided to buy himself a Porsche for his 50th birthday last year. He has done well in his career, has a family, works out, and has also decided to take up the piano at the ripe age of 50. His father died at the early age of 60 and he wants to live a long and happy life. What’s the problem here? Well, to begin with, his closest friends are convinced his must be in some sort of crisis. Why? A healthy 50-year-old person is one who takes healthy ownership of themselves

by taking care of their physical health, their family, their finances, their friendships, and also has some sort of a passion that they can be creative with. If this sounds like a tall order, it is, but this is normal healthy development for a person turning 50. However, many observing this in another might conclude something is very wrong if they themselves are not doing the same thing. How come this happens? People who tend to label others are frequently very unhappy and unfulfilled individuals who may actually be in some sort of developmental arrest. These are the same dynamics we see in bullies. Because of their unhappiness, they make others unhappy and cannot wish another well. Envy is at the base and a tendency to criticize others as a means of making themselves feel less vulnerable. If each person turning 50 could just strive to be healthy, maybe what has been mis-named as a crisis could be seen in the positive light of healthy growth. Wouldn’t that be nice? So, the next time you see Ray behind the wheel of his shiny red Porsche, remember that maybe he has actually found happiness and is not some sort of unhappy middle-aged man. Dr. Keith Kanner is host/anchor - Your Family Matters - WSRADIO; contributor to LifeChanger, Extra TV; a syndicated columnist; author of “Your Family Matters — Solutions to Common Parental Dilemmas” (in press); board certified & licensed clinical child, adolescent, & adult psychologist & psychoanalyst; Assistant clinical professor of psychiatry, University of California, San Diego School of Medicine; National Board Member - KidsKorps USA; and a father of three great kids.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

No doubt you have driven by it countless times: the lagoon east of the freeway off La Costa Blvd. Just as many times, you have probably wished you had time to stop, hike, and explore this breathtakingly beautiful coastal preserve where the delicate habitat and its abundant denizens are protected from encroachment by the surrounding civilization. On Saturday, May 5, Kids Korps teamed up with the Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation to help restore this local coastal salt marsh. We convened at the Foundation’s Nature Center, where Fred Sandquist, Foundation President gave a brief talk about the natural habitat, native vegetation, and how important it is to restore them to their natural state. Thirty-six Kids Korps volunteers then bounced down a long dirt pathway which winds around the lagoon, donning gloves, rakes, hoes, and shovels. Although miles of foot trails snake around the periphery, efforts were focused on specific areas of trail maintenance and removal of mustard and radish plants. Energetic and eager, the team of Kids Korps volunteers, their parents, and local citizens set to work, clearing out old, lifeless, non-native plants and carrying them armload by armload to the large dumpster. There the breakdown crew sawed, split, and stomped the withered trees and branches into small pieces for stacking in the container. With so many helpful hands, however small, the container filled quickly and soon our time was over. What could be better than honest, hard work in the sea air on a sunny day? Everyone felt sore but proud to have helped maintain our lagoon. Once speckled with non-native plants, animals and plants can live there now because of us. That is a very special knowledge. The estuary can now harbor rare wildlife with the intruders up and out. Doing a little thing can make a huge difference! Kids Korps’ “Passport to Sustainability: A Voyage in Environmental Stewardship” program will further Green Korps’ ongoing commitment to engage youth ages 5-25 as stewards of the environment through expanded service learning opportunities, and an ongoing series of educational seminars led by community experts. It will effectively broaden the depth and breadth of Green Korps by targeting quarterly focus areas including: Water Preservation, Habitat Preservation & Restoration, Recycling/Waste Reduction, and Natural Resource Conservation and Protection with a series of expert roundtables to complement the field education, and expanded service learning opportunities through volunteerism. Thank you to SDG&E for your continued support of Kids Korps, our environment,and our commitment to instill the spirit of giving in our youth. Earl Warren Middle School Teen Korps Ghana Book Drive Earl Warren Middle School Teen Korps is a youth organization offering opportunities for teens to engage in community service. The Solana Beach Library partnered with them for a Book Drive

Sebastian Dos Santos, Raquel Dos Santos and Sasha Moscona Kruger clearing the Batiquitos Lagoon of invasive plants. to collect books and start the Twenedrase Community Library in Ghana, where they currently do not have a library at all. The new Twenedrase library will serve the general community and the K-8th grade students in the local school. The book drive, which ran through April at the Solana Beach Library, was a huge success, and the team of Teen Korps students, parent and Library volunteers collected and packed 15 boxes, including well over 1,000 books and other educational materials. The boxes were mailed to Ghana on May 7. For more information on the African Library Project or to inquire how to start your own book drive, please go to: http://www.africanlibraryproject.org/. For more information about the Earl Warren Teen Korps, please contact: teenkorps@gmail.com Kids Korps’ Super Star Gala More than 200 guests at Kids Korps’ annual Super Star Gala received the royal treatment on April 28 at “A Night at the Royal Ascot”, chaired by Christena Ferran and Marlene Holmquist. Set in the beautiful grounds of the Del Mar Country Club, Kids Korps’ annual fundraising benefit featured real horses and young “jockeys” – Kids Korps youth members in traditional colorful silks – greeting attendees as they arrived. Guests were treated to scrumptious hors d’oeuvres, while strolling among the dozens of silent auction items, and enjoying horse racing memorabilia from Hall of Fame jockey Don Pierce who attended the event with his wife Penny. A special opportunity drawing featured a pair of diamond and amethyst earrings, donated by Martin Katz Jewelers, valued at $25,000. The evening, emceed by Yolanda S. Walther-Meade and Junior Emcee Alex Baker, featured a gourmet dinner, musical entertainment by Barrie Minniefield and his band, and performances by 16-year old Kids Korps member Elsa Eve, as well as a trumpet welcome

by Ian Holmquist. Kids Korps Program Director Robin Chappelow introduced the National Leadership honorees, including the Bobileff Family, the Scafidi Family, the Lichtenberger family, and the R. Roger Rowe School. Guests were treated to a new Kids Korps video, featuring the youth volunteer “superstars” who are the backbone of our programs. A live auction was followed by a Raise the Paddle to support Kids Korps’ Outreach programs in the community. Following the auction, Barrie Minnifield and his band got guests out of their seats and onto the dance floor.

Edward Jones ranks highest in investor satisfaction, according to study For the sixth year out of the past eight, financial-services firm Edward Jones ranks highest in investor satisfaction with full service brokerage firms, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2012 Full Service Investor Satisfaction Study. The study measures overall investor satisfaction with full service investment firms based on seven factors: investment advisor, investment performance, account information, account offerings, commissions and fees, website and problem resolution. Edward Jones places its branch offices in the communities where its clients — long-term individual investors — live and work. This practice, which enables its branch teams to provide personalized service to all clients, has helped the firm attain the highest score in the “Investment Advisor” category of the study. “We are gratified that our clients find it convenient to work with us on their longterm financial goals,” Diane Huckabee said. “We enjoy working one-on-one with our clients and believe that builds a collaborative relationship.” Edward Jones also received high marks in the “Account Information” category, an important factor in the study. “Hearing that we did particularly well in the account information factor is especially meaningful as we strive to help our clients make sense of investing,” Huckabee said. Edward Jones’ overall score climbed 15 points over last year, highest among the 14 largest firms rated, as well as 28 points

above the industry average. Edward Jones ranked highest in investor satisfaction by J.D. Power and Associates in 2010 and 2009, from 2005 through 2007, and in a tie in 2002, when the study began. Edward Jones in Canada ranked highest in the J.D. Power and Associates Canadian Full Service Investor Satisfaction Study in 2006 through 2008. The 2012 Full Service Investor Satisfaction Study is based on responses from 4,378 investors who primarily invest with one of the 14 firms included in the study. The study was fielded in February 2012. Edward Jones provides financial services for individual investors in the United States and, through its affiliate, in Canada. Every aspect of the firm’s business, from the types of investment options offered to the location of branch offices, is designed to cater to individual investors in the communities in which they live and work. In January 2012, for the 13th year, Edward Jones was named one of the best companies to work for by FORTUNE Magazine in its annual listing. The firm ranked No. 5 overall and No. 3 in Large Size Companies. These 13 FORTUNE rankings include top 10 finishes for nine years, consecutive No. 1 rankings in 2002 and 2003, and consecutive No. 2 rankings in 2009 and 2010.
