Rattlesnakes strike again in county In San Diego County, the number of rattlesnake bites is increasing as well as the toxicity of the attack. “While San Diego County is seeing a rise in snake bite cases each year, the more alarming factor is the toxicity of the bite,” said Richard Clark, MD, director of the Division of Medical Toxicology at UC San Diego Health System. Toxin levels in rattler venom vary from year to year and season to season, but typically venom is weaker in winter and stronger in summer because snakes are more active, fighting for food and territory. “We really don’t know why the venom is becoming increasingly potent. Some speculate that with the modern world encroaching on nature it could be survival of the fittest. Perhaps only the strongest, most venomous snakes survive,” said Clark. “The anti-venom is costly at around $2,500 a vial. Patients may need a series of anti-venom shots and insurance does not always cover the treatment.” The majority of the injuries are on hands, fingers and feet, and the most typical result is swelling and tissue damage that looks like blisters or frost bite. Symptoms of severe bites can include: extreme pain at the location of the bite, nausea and sometimes

BY JOE TASH The developer of a proposed mixed-use commercial and residential project at the entrance to the Whispering Palms community in Rancho Santa Fe won a victory last week when the County of San Diego certified an environmental impact report for the project. While the decision by county Public Works director Richard Crompton to certify the environmental document as complete clears the way for construction to begin, project opponents have until Friday, June 8, to appeal the decision to the County Board of Supervisors. A spokesman for a community group opposed to the project said an appeal will be filed. “The community has long sought to see that the lot be developed. This is not a case of ‘not in my back yard’ protest, this community wants nothing more than to see this eyesore at the entrance to Whispering Palms be developed properly, with something that fits with community character and that would not generate as much traffic, both on Via de la Valle and within the community,” said Jeff Carmel, a member of the Whispering Palms Community Council. Carmel said that if the Board of Supervisors denies the appeal, as expected, residents are likely to go to court in a bid to stop the project. Wayne Brechtel, the attorney for developer Richard Cavanaugh and his company, Newport Pacific, Inc., said the appeals would not be a surprise, but he anticipates the de-

Dog dies in RSF house fire Four people and a cat who were awakened by a twoalarm fire in their Rancho Santa Fe home the morning of May 31 escaped unharmed, but their dog perished in the smoke-filled residence. At 6:38 a.m., firefighters from the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District responded to a call for a smoke check. Upon arrival they found heavy smoke coming from the garage of a home in the 16000 block of Mimosa Place and requested a first alarm for a structure fire. A second alarm was soon added to the call. The fire was confined to the attic, but there was smoke and water damage throughout the home. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. Damage is estimated at $800,000. Eight units from RSFFPD, Encinitas Fire Department, Solana Beach Fire Department, Del Mar Fire Department, and Vista Fire Department, along with a San Diego Medical Services ambulance and three battalion chiefs responded to the scene. No injuries were reported. — City News Service contributed to this report by the RSF Fire Department.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Buzz: State of the RSF Association BY JACK QUEEN, RSF ASSOCIATION BOARD PRESIDENT For over 20 years each outgoing RSF Association President has given a State of the Association Report on the issues and the conditions that existed at the end of their term. The report was intended to establish a record of the goals and accomplishments for the year, as well as outlining the challenges we will be facing in the upcoming years. It was intended to be a tool for future boards to draw upon and at the same time establish a written Jack Queen history for generations to come. This year I could make this report very short by simply saying that the “State of the Association” is excellent. On the financial side, we are on very strong footing with a positive income statement and over $7 million in funded reserves. From an operations standpoint we are in even better shape. Having been active in the governance of the Association for the last six years, serving first on the Art Jury for three years and then on the board for three years, I have seen firsthand how the system works and I can tell you it works very well. I am constantly impressed with the quality and credentials of the community members that give of their time to serve on our committees and serve on the board. Now I will admit they don’t always vote the way I think they should, but they do vote the way they believe is in the best interest of the community, even if they are wrong. Add our volunteers to our well-seasoned staff and it is a combination that is hard to beat. As President of the Association I am very pleased with the progress we have made this year in addressing the issues facing our community and accomplishing our established goals. Not all of the projects came to a successful conclusion, but we did address each of the issues and have a better understanding of what can be accomplished and the limitations on some goals that will need continued work. Our number one priority was to address the need for establishing broadband coverage for the entire communi-

ty. To address this issue the board established an ad hoc committee comprised of members in the community with expertise in wireless communication. This is one of our priorities that will need continued work and effort to bring it to fruition. What we have learned so far: 1) There is not going to be any one simple solution; 2) Any resolve will be expensive; and finally 3) The options are complicated. The basic problem is that our homes are too far apart and the topography is too uneven to generate enough revenue volume to cover the capital expense to install the backbone system. The Committee has been meeting with all of the wireless providers to see what the best options are available. The process has been delayed due to the competitive nature of the industry and the reluctance of the providers to provide detailed information about their ability to provide coverage. At the end of the process we may not be able to provide 100 percent coverage to all residences, but we will have a much better understanding of the options and can better advise our members of the options that are available to their unique location. Dick Doughty has been the board’s liaison on this project due to professional background and his attention to detail in everything he does. I am hoping that Dick will continue on the Committee to see this project to completion. #2 Patrol Space: The board has worked out a longterm lease agreement with the Fire Department that consists of a series of five-year leases which guarantees us space in the Fire Station for the next 30 years. We worked hard with the Fire Department to iron out a lease that met the needs of both groups and I would like to thank the fire board and Fire Chief Tony Michel for their help. Additionally, we have now signed a lease agreement with the school district for enough parking to meet the needs of the Patrol for as long as we are leasing space from the Fire Department. This has been a long process for everyone involved and the end result is that we now have a secure location for our Patrol that will meet the needs of our community. #3 Marketing RSF: The general thought behind this priority is to promote our community to create demand to get us through these difficult economic times. To this end,

the Board has established the Community Awareness Committee to increase the awareness of community not only to the outside world but also to enhance the information flow to our current members. The first recommendation from the Committee has been to establish an updated website that will feature the many amenities the community has to offer and to keep everyone current on community activities and events. We are in process of reviewing several proposals to enhancement the website and to provide key links to all community organizations. I am excited about the possibilities and hope that we can have the new website up and running within six months. #4 Document Management: This is a program to electronic file all of the Association’s records. The end result would be to protect the original files and make the information more accessible to members. All future submittals would be made electronically for easier dissemination of information and permanent storage. We are currently in the process of having all of the building and property files converted to electronic storage and I am optimistic that we can have this process completed by the end of the summer. #5 Art Jury: In response to the recent community survey that indicated some concerns with the Art Jury process, the Art Jury has been working on ways to better communicate their concerns with applicants and becoming more user friendly. Recently the Art Jury presented the Board with an outline of their new project review process that encourages greater direct involvement between the members of the Art Jury and the members that are submitting proposals. It is a big step in the right direction. #6 Golf Club Loan: It has become very clear over the last few years that the Golf Club is simply not going to be able to pay off the renovation loans as quickly as originally planned. To this end the Association is working with the Golf Club to explore options to refinance the loans to lock in today’s historically low interest rates. In April the Board reached an agreement with the Golf Club to replace the $1,600,000 bank loan with funds provided by the AssociaSee BUZZ, page 26

•C ommunity event will also feature music by the Peter Pupping Band

RSF Fire District to hold Spaghetti Dinner/ Rescue Demonstration

BY KAREN BILLING For the last four years, Village Church Contemporary Band leader Duey Neal has been providing the Village Community Presbyterian Church with lively music on Sunday mornings. Now Neal will bring his group outdoors for a special community-wide event, “Live on the Green,” on Sunday, June 24, at the Rancho Santa Fe Village Green (intersection of Avenida de Acacias and Paseo Delicias). The Village Church’s contemporary band, along with the Peter Pupping Band, will provide the entertainment from 5-7 p.m. The community is welcome to bring a blanket and picnic and enjoy the evening with family and friends. Neal’s group normally plays the 9 a.m. service at the church with Neal on acoustic guitar, vocalist Kim Royster, drummer Jim Biven, bassist Dave Mattia, keyboardist Rob Pickard and electronic guitarist Jeff Lamb. Saxophone player Adrienne Nims, who usually doesn’t play at the church, will join the group at the June 24 concert. Neal said the Village Church offers one of the best traditional church music (choir and organist) programs that you can find in San Diego, but their contemporary band offers something a little different. Some of what they play are traditional Christian songs and hymns re-arranged to be played with a band, but 60 percent of the songs they

The Rancho Santa Fe Firefighters Association Local 4349, in conjunction with the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District, is hosting a Spaghetti Dinner and Live Rescue Demonstration on Saturday, June 9, from 4-7 p.m. at Station 2, located at 16930 Four Gee Road in 4S Ranch. Tickets are $7 for adults, $4 for children, and will be available at the door. In addition to providing dinner, firefighters will be on-hand to offer informative displays and demonstrate rescue techniques, including a simulated vehicle fire, removal of a trapped victim from a vehicle, and rescue from the window of a four-story building. “We are really looking forward to this event,” said Captain Brian Slattery, who is organizing the dinner. “This is a great chance for the community to see their fire station, as well as some live demonstrations of the things we do.” Visit www.rsf-fire.org

Village Church Contemporary Band highlights ‘Live on the Green’ concert June 24 play have been written in the last 10 years. “We’ve got a pretty hot band for what we do, they’re really good,” Neal said. “There’s enough freedom for us to play with enthusiasm, it’s not a watered down pop music sound, I think it’s pretty dynamic. We’re not trying to just Village Church sing the truth but Contemporary Band leader trying to feel the Duey Neal. truth while we sing it.” Neal has been playing music since a young age and has been mostly self-taught. “I started playing piano all by ear, I didn’t have a lot of formal training,” said Neal. “In the first grade I was banging the piano when nobody was home.” He continued playing in bars and shops in college and also started to play mostly piano in worship services for youth programs. He took a “definite shine” to pop music and started playing guitar in college, mainly because he was a big fan

of the music of James Taylor and the Eagles. “Eventually I combined my interest and natural gift for playing music by ear with my interest in church and my faith in God,” Neal said. “Those came together for me to be involved in contemporary, band-driven sound in worship music in the church.” Neal has been playing and leading worship bands for the last 15 years and started at the Village Church in June 2008. Neal is very happy with his weekly venue; the Village Church’s new sanctuary has technology that makes it a great place for music. “The place is really beautiful and it really invites one to become reflective and reverent,” Neal said “It creates a really nice environment for us to sing songs from our head and our heart.” While they will play a few songs from their church repertoire at the park concert, they will also play a wide variety of fun, upbeat music — some folk rock, some rock, a little jazz. “I really hope people will feel very comfortable visiting with each other, tossing Frisbees or playing catch. It should be like a park,” Neal said. “It’s just people being outside with family and friends and instead of a boom box, a couple of pretty nice bands playing live music.” For more information on Live on the Green, which is sponsored by the Village Church, visit www.villagechurch.org

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe among settings in suspense thriller BY KATHY DAY If you don’t know Susan Blick, chances are you won’t know just how much of her own life she’s put into her new book “Borrowed from the Devil.” Bits and pieces of her life and friends are woven throughout the fast-paced 372-page work that she describes as a “suspense thriller” in which her main character gets involved with the mafia. When her best friend’s husband is mugged and her best friend disappears, the plot moves quickly into the world of unpaid loans and threats. “It’s about making a decision you think is so right that is so wrong,” Blick said, clearly enjoying talking about her book at her Del Mar townhouse where she and her husband Sam have lived since 2008. It’s set in Del Mar as well as Rancho Santa Fe, where they used to live, and it’s chock full of local landmarks people will recognize, even though they have different names. It features an interior designer, which Blick was, and a lawyer, which her husband is, although she says

Susan Blick relaxes with Gracie, her new puppy, and Gracie’s playmate Sophie. COURTESY he’s not at all like the one in the book. “Some of my girlfriends see themselves in the characters,” she said. “I was really careful. I didn’t want to offend anyone.” She promises none of the characters are real people, even though the main one – Beverlee Smirnoff – takes her name from Blick’s younger sister. “We’re very close … she’s the person who would know where to look for me if I ever went missing,” the

author said. While this is her first published novel – she selfpublished it – it’s not the first she’s written. That was a 120-page tale she composed as a fourth grader growing up in Chicago. The inspiration for “”Borrowed from the Devil” came during a phone call home. “One day I was talking to my mom about my best friend who knows so much about me,” she said, explaining that the conversa-

tion revolved around the bonds of universal friendship. “She said, ‘You should write about it.’” Once she decided to do that “the words just came out,” Blick added. “I never had to add or pick up up a loop or a thread and it was all sewn up at the end.” That is, except for one thing: A twist at the end that leaves an opening for a sequel, which she’s already working on. Over the course of the past year she wrote and edited. In the process, her mom read part of it and immediately asked for the next chapter. About half way through she asked her husband, a land use attorney with an office in Rancho Santa Fe who is a former Del Mar and Chula Vista city attorney, to critique her writing. Until then, she said, she had hidden it from him. Since they share an office, he was sitting nearby as he was reading it. “He was shaking his head and just said ‘Wow,’” she recalled, noting he was very supportive during the process as well as helpful with words. “He’s my little

‘Borrowed From the Devil’ ■ By Susan Blick ■ From $11.50 at barnesandnoble.com, amazon.com ■ Local book signings are planned. thesaurus.” And, she added, he was the one who suggested ending it with a question mark. The title came from the story line – “someone borrowing from someone who was a devilish character.” She chose to self-publish because she didn’t want to take the time to shop it around to publishers. Pleased with the results

so far, she says many of her readers are men – which surprised her since the only “publicity” has been word of mouth. “The best compliment is that people have told me they stayed up past midnight to finish it because they couldn’t put it down,’ she said, adding that she thinks it’s a perfect book for a book club although she has yet to suggest it for the group she’s in. “It’s about friendship and bonds with girlfriends and relationships and how families can be shattered so quickly.” When she’s not at her desk working on the next installment, Blick can be found walking on the beach or around the neighborhood with Sam and their new Australian shepherd puppy, Gracie. She’s the second Aussie they’ve owned, replacing one they lost to cancer recently. Blick loves golf and painting and, now that she’s not running her interior design business, she has more time to enjoy her friends – and get new story ideas.

Ocean mural dedicated to memory of R. Roger Rowe BY KAREN BILLING R. Roger Rowe art students recently completed their third ocean mural, which will be placed on the wall of the campus. This particular coral reef mosaic was particularly special as it was dedicated to the memory of Roger Rowe, who passed away earlier this year. New art specialist Marika Fagan had help from mosaic artist Dr. Tim Lueker, who led the seventh and eighth grade students in designing and creating their ocean panels, which all together create a 9-foot tall, 6-foot wide mural. The mural depicts several coral reef inhabitants, with a dolphin jumping on the top of the water. Across the top of the mural are the words “R. Roger Rowe, Save our Seas.” “I was just so proud of them, I think it turned out amazing,” said Fagan. “I had never done a mural before and I was really excited to do it, as well.” The piece will be a permanent fixture at the school, along with two others made by previous art classes.

San Diego ‘Moms With Issues’ present Young Leaders Film Festival June 22-24 Young Leaders Film Festival (YLFF) will present five acclaimed independent films June 22-24 on the San Diego campus of La Jolla Country Day School. The two-day world premiere event is designed to appeal to students ages 14-18, with films sourced from leading North American showcases, including the famed Sundance Film Festival. Tickets can be purchased online at www.youngleadersfilmfestival.com. Tickets are $7 per film for all ages, except for the Friday night opening night reception, which is $15 and features special guests and a screening of the Harry Belafonte biopic, “Sing Your Song.” Young Leaders Film Festival is a project of the Moms with Issues (MWI) production company, a partnership of Kathryn Brinton of Del Mar, Pat Hughes of Del Mar, and Rancho Santa Fe resident Carol Tager. This trio of film-loving friends traveled to the Sundance Film Festival last year. On the flight home to San Diego — reflecting on the important films they had just experienced — Brinton, Hughes and Tager dedicated themselves to creating a platform for such worthy films. On that flight, the concept of the Young Leaders Film Festival was born. “At Sundance, we saw a number of extraordinary films, primarily documentaries, that rarely make it to the theaters,” says Festival Producer Pat Hughes. “So after screening hundreds of films, including over 40 that we saw at Sundance, we selected five features that fulfill our mission to inspire the minds of our 14-18-yearold young leaders.” The Young Leaders Film Festival concludes Sunday at 7 p.m., with “Sunday Night Shorts,” six short films, plus StoryCorps, and films from

Rancho Santa Fe Review

RSF residents take memorable trip to Cuba together BY KATHY DAY Richard Rovsek gets right to the point when talking about a recent trip he took with two Rancho Santa Fe neighbors and a contingent of others: “I have a love affair with Cuba.” He’s talking about the culture and arts and people of the country, not the government, he emphasized. The trip, which Corky Mitzer and Gary Bobileff described as an introduction for them to the Communist nation, was organized by the Spirit of Liberty Foundation. The group, founded by Rovsek initially to help fund restoration and maintenance of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, has taken on new causes, among them supporting the military, wounded veterans and their families. Now, Rovsek said, he wants to bring an exhibit of Cuban art to the U.S. and foster a relationship with their athletes. One day, he hopes to be able to buy a home there. He was introduced to the country in 1959 as a college student and was there “on the famous evening when Castro came in.” He recalled the shooting and panic as people scrambled to get out of the country. He had to remain a while, he added, because people were doing anything they could to get plane tickets out. A key member of President Ronald Reagan’s staff, Rovsek got to know the U.N. ambassador to Cuba about seven years ago and started going back about five years ago. “I love the country, I like the people, but I don’t like the government,” he said. Mitzer, owner of Corky’s Pest Control, and Bobileff, who owns Bobileff Motorcar Co. which he says is the largest independent Ferrari and Lamborghini dealership in the country, came back with similar impressions. Their point in making the trip, they said, was to learn about the state and future of Cuba and whether it is going to change. Their first trip with Rovsek was during Christmas 2010 when they “took Santa Claus” to Iraq. They flew to their departure point in Bobileff’s plane, delivering gifts to military hospitals along the way before boarding a C-130 transport for Kuwait City. There they were fitted with helmets and protective gear before heading to Camp Speicher, an Army base near Tikrit. It was on that trip that they started talking about visiting Cuba, Mitzer said. The trips are officially sanctioned by the U.S. and routed through Miami, not through other countries as some Cuba tours are, he added. While in the country in April, they met with one of Castro’s top seven staff members, Bobileff said.

Part of a group of 16 that included Paul Tagliabue, former commissioner of the National Football League, they traveled around Havana, even in the dark of night, walking around on their own and taking buses into the countryside. Bobileff spent only two and a half days with the group, but Mitzer was there for the entire trip. “ We were free to do whatever we wanted,” Mitzer said. “I (Above) Corky Mitzer (right) in spent three or four Cuba with the UN Ambassador. days in taxis driving (Top right) Scenes from Cuba. around. “ (Bottom right) Richard Rovsek and Rovsek noted that Gary Bobileff. they saw lots of art and music, particularly since he is close to the drummer of the famous Buena Vista Social Club. “We had cigars and rum with Castro’s personal photographer and saw photos of Che (Guevara) that have never been published,” he added. Mitzer talked about a discussion they had about capitalism vs. communism. The official they were with asked if they had seen “Godfather 2” and compared capitalists to Meyer Lansky. “He told us they took the capitalists out of Cuba because they were going to take advantage of them,” he said. “I told him ‘I am a capitalist. How can you compare me to Meyer Lansky?’” When Mitzer told him he paid people more than $1 a day, the official acknowledged that it might not have been a good analogy. When Mitzer said the Cuban people are very oppressed and live in a completely different world, Bobileff added, “They are oppressed but used to that way of living.” Even so, they agreed, Havana is a “beautiful, clean city.” “There is no litter, no graffiti,” Bobileff said. “The old buildings are spotless and being restored.” And crime is non-existent. Mitzer said you can walk around at 2 a.m. and have no

fear of being mugged, in part, “because they are afraid of the police.” Bobileff added: “Police are so heavy-handed and there are cameras everywhere.” As they looked out across the city, they said, they knew that the people living in the penthouses are those who hold higher positions with the government. They learned a lot about the Cuban economy and how the U.S. embargo is affecting the people. “The embargo doesn’t allow them to import anything,” Mitzer said. “It was perfect when it happened, but now it is hurting the people – not the government.” Bobileff added, “The embargo cannot go on.” He said they noticed that the government is moving “more toward Western ways, allowing people to buy homes and businesses, but the government gets a percentage…

Rovsek and grandson enjoy meeting Cuban athletes BY KAREN BILLING Rancho Santa Fe resident Richard Rovsek has traveled to Cuba numerous times but a recent trip felt like the first time after being able to see the country through the eyes of his grandson Blake, 11. This was Rovsek’s 10th trip to Cuba, this time under a cultural license, which includes arts and sports. Rovsek and Blake traveled with former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue and had the opportunity to meet Cuban Olympians. Rancho Santa Fe residents Gary Bobileff and Corky Miser also joined them on the trip. “Cubans themselves really love America, it’s a shame that we can’t have a decent relationship with a country that’s 90 miles off our shores,” Rovsek said. Rovsek’s grandson Blake lives on Balboa Island in Newport Beach and is a fifth grade student at Lincoln Elementary. He enjoys traveling with his grandfather. “Popi is so fun and he is not afraid to do anything and try everything he can,” Blake said. While they were in Cuba, Rovsek and Blake met the Cuban fencing team and learned that they would be playing at the Olympic trials in Long Beach. “It is a very young team,” Rovsek said. “Five of them were teenagers.” In May, Rovsek and his grandson revisited with the Olympic team in Long Beach as they competed with the U.S., Canada, Mexico and others for a chance to compete at the London Olympics.

Blake Rovsek (in red shirt, second row) with the Cuban Olympic volleyball team. They did not win their most important match against the U.S., but now a committee will decide which teams will be selected to go. Blake said the most interesting thing he saw in Cuba was the baseball game between the professional Matazanas Crocodillos and the Havana Metros teams, basically the equivalent to Cuba’s World Series. Blake noted the game was very different from the U.S. because there were no advertisements, no hats or shirts or any memorabilia for sale, no concession stands, no soda or popcorn for sale. The only graphic in the stadium was a

picture of Fidel Castro over the scoreboard. The tickets to get to the playoff game were three pesos — all the seats were the same price. The players warm up with dirty brown balls and while they play with clean balls once a player hits the ball into the stands, the fan throws it back. One of the most amazing things Rovsek noticed was that the opposing teams shared a mitt at first base. The main difference Blake said he noticed in Cuba was that they aren’t free to travel or leave and do not have freedom of speech. “But the kids are very similar to kids everywhere, they just want to play,” Blake said. Inspired by what he saw in Cuba, Blake has started asking his little league teammates to donate equipment that they have been outgrown to send back to Cuba for the children to have access to sports. Rovsek hadn’t been back to Cuba in over a year and he was initially concerned that the changes he had heard happened would not be positive. “I had some trepidation but when I got there I was pleasantly surprised,” Rovsek said. “Small businesses have started up and they’re moving modestly toward a free enterprise economy. It’s going to take awhile but even 18 months ago there were far fewer private restaurants and people working. It was wonderful to see that.”

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Martin Luther King’s influence on local man’s life reflected in book BY JOE TASH Ben Kamin has always felt a spiritual connection to slain civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., which has spanned his life from his teens in Cincinnati to his adulthood living locally. King’s message, said Kamin, has inspired his work as a rabbi, author and journalist. “His life and his death and his impact on me and my friends in the ‘60s… have never left me,” said Kamin, whose eighth and latest book, “Room 306: The National Story of the Lorraine Motel” was published in April by Michigan State University Press. The balcony in front of the Memphis motel’s Room 306 was the spot where an assassin’s bullet cut down King at age 39 on April 4, 1968. King had been in town to support a strike by black sanitation workers. His murder triggered riots in Memphis and dozens of oth-

er cities across the country. Kamin’s book is an oral history, supported by interviews of many people close to the story, of how the Lorraine Motel was transformed after King’s assassination into the Ben Kamin National Civil Rights Museum, which attracts some 200,000 visitors each year. In the book’s introduction, Kamin said the “Lorraine Motel, one of the only places where black people could even lodge in the city, nondescript, unattractive, with mustard-yellow and blue walls, railings, and a second-story balcony, was a cinder-block inn set in a district of flophouses, pimps

and undercover police lookout posts.” Because African-Americans were unwelcome in hotels that catered to whites, the Lorraine hosted black jazz and blues musicians, athletes from Negro League ballplayers to the Harlem Globetrotters, and gospel preachers, Kamin wrote. It was also the place where King preferred to stay, particularly in Room 306, when he was in Memphis. After his death, King’s room was left untouched, with beds unmade, ashtrays unemptied, and its rotary dial telephone and blackand-white TV set with rabbit ear antennas left in place. Following King’s assassination, the motel fell on hard times, and was almost lost to foreclosure before a group of activists and philanthropists purchased the property and turned it into a museum. Kamin said he became interested in the museum

while researching his previous book, a memoir of his high school days, and his search, decades later, to find an African-American friend from his youth. Kamin said he launched that book, “Nothing Like Sunshine,” from the museum in April, 2010, and he returned in April of this year to launch the new book. “It’s the real center of memory and commitment for the movement (King) inspired, so it’s powerful,” said Kamin of the motel-turnedmuseum. “Memphis is about more than Elvis. It’s about civil rights and jazz and great ribs, but the Civil Rights Museum is a centerpiece of the rebirth of Memphis,” he said. In 2008, he said, three major-party presidential candidates — John McCain, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama — visited the museum. Kamin, 59, was born in

Israel and immigrated to the United States with his family in 1962, when he was 9. The topic of civil rights has long been one of his primary interests. Along with books, he has written hundreds of oped articles for publications ranging from the New York Times to the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. Kamin also has led congregations in San Diego, To-

ronto, New York and Cleveland since his ordination as a rabbi in 1978. In 2004, he and his wife, Audrey, cofounded Reconciliation: A Synagogue Without Walls, which is a privately operated consulting agency for interfaith relations. In that capacity, Kamin said, he helps couples design wedding ceremonies incorporating aspects of the Jewish faith as well as other traditions. “Love is the best religion of them all,” he said. Kamin has two grown daughters from a previous marriage, and he lives locally with his wife and two stepchildren. A book-signing event will be held for “Room 306” from noon to 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 1, at Warwick’s bookstore, 7812 Girard Ave., La Jolla. The book is currently available at Amazon.com and will be in bookstores later this summer, Kamin said.

SNAKES

also medical director for the California Poison Control System (CPCS), San Diego Division. “For anyone who suspects a bite, their next move should be to a hospital emergency department.” With some rattlesnake bites, no venom is injected into the wound, but because it is impossible to know if venom has or has not been injected, getting

medical treatment quickly is important. — UCSD Reports What to do if bitten: 1) Go to the emergency department or a nearby health care facility immediately. 2) If in a remote area when bitten by a rattler, first immobilize the wounded area, especially for a hand or arm bite, then proceed slowly to a vehicle. Moving slowly will keep the heart rate

low and help prevent the venom from spreading. 3) There are potential risks to applying ice, using a tourniquet or suctioning the wound. For the direct application of ice, the main concern is the risk of a frostbitelike injury. If tourniquets are applied too tightly, they will decrease blood flow to the affected area and might also concentrate the venom, increasing local tissue damage.

Suctioning the wound is ineffective in removing venom because the venom is usually injected too deeply into tissue. When people use their mouths to suck the bite site, they can actually make things worse by introducing harmful bacteria. 4) If bitten on the leg or foot, it might be necessary to use that limb to get to the vehicle, unless someone can carry the victim. If walking

is necessary, it is very important to move slowly. Drive to the nearest phone, call 911 and wait for assistance. If there is no phone nearby, proceed to the nearest hospital. 24/7 Poison Control Hotline: • (800) 222-1222 • Expert help and information in case of poison exposure, including snake bites. www.calpoison.org

Within minutes, victims can get lightheaded, collapse and go into shock. “Many of our snake bite victims show symptoms of severe weakness, trouble breathing and low blood pressure,” said Clark who is

Children’s book celebrates playful connection between fathers, kids BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

The story always goes the same way. Luciana Powell gets her sons, 3-year-old Nicolas and 5-year-old Alexander, wound down and ready for bed. Then her husband, Michael, comes home and is so excited to see the kids that he gets them all revved up again. “I say ‘Oh gosh, the jungle gym is home’ or ‘Oh no, the playground has arrived,’” said Luciana, a Solana Beach resident. He picks the kids up like a swing, they climb on his back like he’s a jungle gym, they jump on him like he’s a trampoline and he spins them like a merry-goround — “hopefully when I’m not watching,” Luciana said. Seeing how her husband plays with her sons was inspiring and special to Luciana, so she brought the scene to life in her new children’s book, “My Dad is the Best Playground,” which was released just in time for Father’s Day. “That’s the beauty of fathers and kids,” said Luciana, a Brazil native who has specialized in digital art and illustration for more than a

Luciana said she has been drawing since she was a child. “My dad would bring home stacks of paper from work and I would draw so much,” she said. “My mom would say ‘There’s not enough paper for you.’” Even in college, Luciana said she was always drawing, and she worked as a freelance illustrator for a variety of publishing companies. She earned a degree in product design from a university in Brazil. This year, however, has been a “breakout year” for Luciana.

Chuck Courtney Honorary Scholarship Fund established The newly formed Scholarship Committee for the Chuck Courtney Honorary Scholarship Fund held its first meeting May 23. Recently established by the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club, the fund will provide a four-year renewable scholarship for entering college freshmen. Courtney served as the Head Professional at the club for 21 years, from 1983-2004. As a result of his service and friendship to the club and the community, he is being honored for his work through the establishment of this scholarship. Scholarship Fund trustees include Jeff Javelet – chairman, Bob Baker, Vearle Smith, Colleen Greenway, Anne Feighner and Kent Humber. Advisors to the committee are Chuck Courtney and Scott Johnson, current Head Professional. Shannon McCarthy will provide administrative support on behalf of the Golf Club. Notifications of the scholarship were sent to First Tee and Pro Kids Golf early in May and at least one scholarship will be awarded by June 30. Applicants must have participated in the game of golf during their high school careers. There will be a special unveiling of a bronze 3D facial plaque of Chuck Courtney and a display of personal memorabilia on July 20 at 5 p.m. at the Short Game area. This event is open to RSF Association members and golf club members. Wine and cheese will be served. Should you be interested in supporting the scholarship fund, please contact Shannon McCarthy at the RSF Golf Club, 858-756-1182, or Christy Wilson at the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation: 858-756-6557.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

BUZZ continued from page 2 tion at favorable rates and terms. The end result is that the Golf Club is now paying $4,300 less in interest per month on the financing and the Association is earning over $2,000 more per month on our funds. A win-win for everyone. The Board and Golf Club are now focusing on securing fixed rate financing on the remaining debt from a conventional lender. I would like to thank Roxana Foxx and Larry Spitcausky for their efforts to bring this goal to reality. #7 Undergrounding: Sometimes the end result of a great deal of time and energy is the not the answer you hope to hear – but it is reality. This is the case with undergrounding. Based on concerns expressed by members over the years, the Association put together a vehicle to underground utilities in individual neighborhoods. This was a solution for the long-standing concerns expressed by members to underground utilities in the community. The system is now in place and ready to go, all we need now is someone willing to sign up. Even though we have not had any takers for the program, the good news is that, should the economy recover and once again the focus returns to undergrounding utilities, we have the system in place to make it happen. #8 Email: The entire Board is very enthusiastic about the ability to increase communication with our members through direct contact with emails. Our last remaining hurdle to establishing the system is to identify the best way to guarantee the security of our members and their private information. We are continuing to work on establishing a system that is secure and at the same time is in compliance with all state laws. Our manager, Pete Smith, has assured me that we can work out the security concerns and I am going to hold him to it. I look forward to receiving the notice of the next community meeting electronically. #9 Open Space: Based on the results of our community survey, the Association’s policy of identifying and acquiring land for Open Space remains very popular with our members. However, our current Open Space program has not been updated in over 15 years and many of the goals in the original plan are now outdated. The Board remains open to exploring any potential open space parcels especially in light of the downturn in the economy that offers some tremendous bargains. This time next year and with the potential sale of the house on the Osuna Property, the Association will have

over $4,500,000 in our fund for the purchase of Open Space. To make sure these funds are used to meet the expectations of the members, the Open Space Policy needs to be updated to clearly identify the goals and objectives. Our Trails and Recreation Committee is working to revise and update our Open Space Program and should have the plan in place this summer. #10 Water reclamation/reforestation: Ann Boon and Anne Feighner have taken this project on and they are currently working with a new ad hoc committee to set up the frame work for a new standing Committee. The committee is technically named the Committee on the Natural Resource but more commonly known as CONE. The committee is working with the Golf Club to secure an alternative source of water for the course and the community as well as ways to address the declining forest in RSF In addition to our established priorities, this year the Association Board took on several special projects during the year that had a positive impact on the community. Village: One of these special projects was to take another look at issues facing the Village area and especially looking at ways to provide some relief for parking. It is interesting to note, that past Association minutes reported the following item: “Director Fawcett again called to the attention of the Board the rapidly worsening condition and consequent lack of adequate parking in the Village Center.” This statement appeared in the Board minutes 57 years ago on April 1, 1955. Under the direction of Director Eamon Callahan the Board conducted a parking survey of the Village area that indicated one of the main problems was people violating the timed parking limits. Working with the California Highway Patrol the Association began an enforcement program to free up spaces and to cite the violators. Having been a big promoter of the Village, and I am up there frequently, and I can see the positive effects of these efforts. After having lunch in the Village, I observed several available spaces in the timed parking zones. After 57 years of reviewing potential solutions, I think this may be as good as it is going to get. Golf Club: When the Club found itself short on personnel last October, the Association stepped up and provided management support both for the overall operation as well as the dining room until replacements could be found. Not only were we able to help keep

the transition running smoothly it gave the Club the time they needed to find the right fit for the new General Manager. Having served on the Selection Committee, I can tell you that you have to pick through a lot of tomatoes to find the right one but they did just that in Al Castro. Al was the Committee’s and the Golf Board’s unanimous choice for GM and I pleased to be a part of that process. Osuna Ranch: The Osuna Adobe is one area that I feel we have just not done enough to restore and preserve this historical jewel. Rancho Santa Fe is truly one of the very special communities in this country and what makes us so special is our unique character. What can be more unique that having the oldest Adobe in the State of California that is still in its natural settling. As a community we should take this jewel and polish it up and put it on display to show how committed we are to our history and our rural character. I would like to see the Association commit the funds to fully restoring the structure and I will continue to stay involved to help this happen. Economy: As with all businesses in the country, the Association has been negatively impacted by the current condition of the economy. We have made staffing adjustments to address the changing environment including reductions and reassignments to impacted areas. We have been forced to spend more resources on collection of payments and monitoring distressed properties than anyone can remember. Although delinquencies are up for the Rancho Santa Fe Association, we are at industry lows for homeowners associations. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of Steve Comstock, our Chief Financial Officer, and his staff for staying on top of all of our organizations receivables and the Finance Committee for closely monitoring our finances. Summary I started off this report with the statement that the State of the Association is excellent and I firmly believe that is the case. Not only are we currently in excellent shape, we are well positioned to address any future challenges that might come our way. In my three years on the Board and especially as President this last year, I have worked closely with our Association Manager and all of the department heads. I have seen firsthand how the operation works and having personally managed large organizations I know the challenges. Overall, I am very impressed with how professionally the orga-

nization is managed at all levels and equally impressed with the level of team spirit. When the General Manger position at the Golf Club became vacant I think that everyone knows that both Pete Smith and Nadine Garcia immediately stepped in to fill the void at the Club. But what the average member may not be aware is that the balance of the Association staff stepped in to make sure their responsibilities at the Association were covered in their absence. The end result was a seamless transition until a new management team was in place at the Club. Again, we are well positioned both financially and operationally to meet future challenges. For over 85 years, it has been the responsibility of the members of the Board to preserve and enhance the rural character of our community and to maintain an organization that is sound and well positioned for the future — and I believe this Board has continued that long-standing tradition.

PROJECT continued from page 1 velopment will eventually go forward. “I think we’ve complied with the law here,” Brechtel said. While some people simply don’t like the project, he said, “My expectation is when it actually gets developed people are going to be pretty happy. We’re hopeful it’s going to be something people feel positive about down the road.” Cavanaugh wants to build 54 apartments totaling 58,000 square feet of living space, 19,500 square feet of offices and 9,500 square feet of retail space on a 4.3 acre parcel at the corner of Via de la Valle and Cancha de Golf. The project site is the last vacant piece of land in the Whispering Palms development, which includes about 600 condominiums and single-family homes. Cavanaugh is the original developer of Whispering Palms, and the development will benefit the local community by providing shops and professional services, along with another housing option for the area, said Brechtel. But opponents, including many residents of Whispering Palms, oppose the project because of the traffic it will generate. They also contend it will clash with community character. In certifying the environmental impact report, the county adopted a “statement of overriding consideration” that concedes the project “would result in significant cumulative traffic impacts on Via de la Valle/Paseo Delicias. The identified mitigation measures include payment into the (traffic impact fund) which would reduce, but not eliminate, the significant cumulative traffic impacts.” The document goes on to say that the project should be allowed to move forward because it fits in with the county’s general plan and zoning for the area, would complete development of Whispering Palms, supplements the range of housing offered in Whispering Palms, and promotes the county’s land-use goals by providing a

sustainable, mixed-use development. Carmel, however, disputed the county’s reasoning. “No one is going to benefit other than the developer. The community doesn’t want it, the (San Dieguito ) planning group doesn’t want it, or the Rancho Santa Fe Association. Despite every public comment that this is inappropriate, the county in their infinite wisdom thinks there’s a benefit to it,” Carmel said. In comment letters sent to the county last fall, both the San Dieguito Planning Group and the Rancho Santa Fe Association objected to the project, and called for more study of its impacts. “The Association continues to oppose the size and scale of the proposed project, which will result in significant and unmitigable cumulative traffic impacts,” said the RSF Association’s letter. “The community is very upset. The applicant is doing an end run around the planning process to obtain so many apartments at that location by fiat,” wrote planning group member Laurel Lemarie on behalf of the advisory panel. Brechtel said the Palma de la Reina project is only one of many in the area that will add to traffic congestion. He said the developer will be making improvements to nearby intersections and contributing between $500,000 and $700,000 to the county’s traffic impact fund. The only way to completely eliminate the traffic problems in the area, he said, would be to widen Via de la Valle to four lanes from its current two. But such an expansion was ruled out by the county when it adopted an updated General Plan in 2011. “The project is contributing to mitigating its impacts directly and through the county program for mitigation. It’s by no means tossing gas onto the fire,” Brechtel said. Cavanaugh has been seeking to develop the vacant property for more than a decade. Residents took him to court in the late 1990s to block a previous plan to build an assisted living facility on the site. The plan was ultimately withdrawn.

Nepal children’s shelter becomes ‘love affair’ for group of local residents BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

La Jolla Cultural Partners

In 2004, a woman from Laguna was hiking in Nepal and discovered there were thousands of impoverished children working in the fields there, many displaced by traffickers or orphaned due to the Maoist insurrection of the 1990s. Soon after, that woman sold everything she owned to move to Nepal permanently to start a shelter for these kids. A local resident, Laura Parker, met this fellow Californian, Christine Casey, while on vacation in Nepal. Casey was just about to open the shelter on her own, and Parker was instantly attached to her cause and offered to help. Within the following years, Parker shared Casey’s story with friends in Del Mar and, one by one, a handful of locals visited the shelter, called Chhahari, and fell in love with the some 20 kids living there. Together, they’ve contributed in various ways on visits to Chhahari, and they’ve formed a board to help protect and raise money for it. “For me it’s like a love affair,” said local resident Ingrid Hoffmeister, who has served as a volunteer teacher there and helped start a book sale to raise money for the shelter. She has also published a book about Chhahari, which means “shelter” in Nepalese. “It’s like when you are there, something has called you; you don’t call it,” she said. “It’s a blessing to be there.” Local nurse Carol Kerridge, who heard about the shelter through Hoffmeister, joined the board after visiting the shelter in 2009. She also helps run the book sales, which take place several times a year at Stratford Court Cafe in Del Mar. Kerridge said she was greatly impacted by the kind attitudes of the children. “They were all sitting around a low table on the floor doing homework,” she said. “The lights got dim and they were barely able to see their homework because they only have two hours of electricity a day … They were such joyful, sweet kids.” Both women plan to visit Nepal in October — Kerridge to perform healthcare outreach and Hoffmeister to bring video cameras for a student-driven documentary project. Hoffmeister hopes to bring the video footage back to the

The two met Kerridge and Hoffmeister at one of the book sales at Stratford Court Cafe and they not only offered a generous donation, but asked if they could bring a medical team to Nepal. The Monahans ended up joining the ladies on their next trip and offering three days of intense clinics, Kerridge said. The groups did physical examinations on 205 people, from kids to factory workers. Monahan also ended up returning the following year to offer medical exams. Also in the effort is Hoffmeister’s husband, Jerry, who has extensive experience running boards. He has served as chair of the San Diego Foundation, and is also serving on the Chhahari board. “It was one person [Casey] doing everything, and we started the board because we were afraid of what would happen to the shelter if something happened to her,” said Hoffmeister. “We needed a stronger infrastructure, and we knew we needed to have a strong underpinning.” The shelter operated on $13,000 annually when it first opened, but the budget has increased to more than $28,000 annually. This is due to the instability of the government there, rising rent and an increased need for food.

“The kids are growing up and getting older and hungrier,” Kerridge said. The locals who have dedicated so much of their time and energy to Chhahari want to widen the circle of support they have created to help garner more resources. “The more people know about us, the better,” Hoffmeister said. “There are so many charities out there that it’s hard to raise money, and once you’ve been there, you’re hooked. It’s hard to understand the emotional pull until you’ve been.” Hoffmeister continued, jokingly, “We think Del Mar should adopt this charity, adopt the project as a Del Mar project that’s out of the country.” Hoffmeister said the experience of going to Nepal has changed her entire perspective on life. “You go there and come back and you are not the same. You get an extremely healthy touch of reality,” she said. “The kids’ needs are very basic and minimal. They don’t want toys. What they love is people showing up and showing an interest.” For more information, visit www.chhahari.org.

Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is fun, fanciful for wine as well as feasting BY KELLEY CARLSON hen it comes to identifying the food and style of Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wine Bar and Bistro, the establishment canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be pigeonholed. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quirky and cozy, upscale yet casual. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family-friendly, but still provides an intimate setting for dates. And it provides international flavor, as the South African-born Linda and Marshall Ravden â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who co-own Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s with their son and daughter-in-law, Nick and Tiana â&#x20AC;&#x201D; find much of the inspiration for their dishes during their travels across the pond. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People come in and say they feel like theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not in La Jolla anymore,â&#x20AC;? Tiana said, "Rather, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve taken a little trip to Europe," Linda added. Patrons enter through wrought-iron gates into Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s courtyard, which is shaded by trees and perfumed by flowers. On warm, bright days, guests chatter around tables â&#x20AC;&#x201D; much like the social, musical birds the restaurant is named for â&#x20AC;&#x201D; while a fountain provides a soothing background sound. Coincidentally, during the siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous incarnation as Cafe Lautrec, finches resided in cages on the patio. The fact was unbeknownst to the Ravdens when they chose the name for their restaurant. From 6 to 10 p.m. Friday through Sunday,

â&#x20AC;&#x153;jazzy, low-key, nonintrusiveâ&#x20AC;? entertainment is provided in the courtyard, allowing people the opportunity to comfortably converse. Local musicians play tunes in various styles, from bossa nova and blues to Spanish guitar. As the weather gets warmer, performances will be Tuesday through Sunday. The interior spaces -- consisting of the main dining room and wine bar -- feature sunny hues and plenty of natural light, along with black-and-white striped accents. Tables are covered in white linens, with water carafes topped with lemons and salt and pepper shakers in the form of black and white birds. In the wine bar, guests can customize their Bloody Marys, part of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Liquid Lunchâ&#x20AC;? menu that also includes bottomless mimosas and other beverages, or opt for wine flights -tastings of multiple vintages. And they can still order full meals. Guests will find that the culinary offerings at Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s are quite eclectic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to have things on the menu that you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find anywhere else at all,â&#x20AC;? Linda said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to be very inventive with our food, but unpretentious.â&#x20AC;? One example is the South African dish of Bobotie. Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version consists of spiced ground lamb, peas, carrots, Bechamel sauce, jasmine rice with raisins, and mango chutney.

On The Menu Recipe Each week youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at delmartimes.net. Just click â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Get The Recipeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at the bottom of the story. â&#x2013; This Week: Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Watermelon Gazpacho Among other unique creations is the Pistachio Crusted Salmon with French lentils, organic spring mix blood orange salad and saffron citrus beurre blanc. Seafood lovers can also appreciate the Shrimp Portofino, with grilled butterflied jumbo shrimp, crispy Yukon Gold potatoes, marinated heirloom tomato avocado salad and lemon garlic sauce; and the Lobster Carbonara, a marriage of linguini with pancetta, peas and lobster Parmesan cream. Those who relish red meat may find the Meat and Potatoes entree tantalizing, with filet mignon, porcini butter, red wine jus, gorgonzola potato risotto and roasted garlic spinach. While the cuisine may have foreign influences, many of the ingredients are obtained from local distributors. The daily specials â&#x20AC;&#x201D;

soups, frittatas and mussels, and crepes on Sundays â&#x20AC;&#x201D; constantly vary, driven by the availability of seasonal items. For instance, one will find Chilled Mango Avocado and Watermelon Gazpacho soups on the summer menu, while Tuscan White Bean Butternut makes an appearance during the cooler months. There is no set childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s menu, but items can be customized for the youngsters. They can draw on paper with crayons while waiting for fare such as bow-tie pasta with butter and grilled cheese sandwiches. For a romantic Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience, Linda and Tiana recommend dining at night on the patio, near the musicians and the fountain. Order a dish you normally wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try, and then share a housemade dessert â&#x20AC;&#x201D; specifically the Chocolate French Toast Sandwich with maple bourbon bacon sauce and ice cream. To further enjoy the restaurantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offerings, people may sign up for e-mail notification of wine pairing dinners and â&#x20AC;&#x153;wine appreciationâ&#x20AC;? classes. Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also holds sip-and-shop soirees, in which local female business owners sell items while guests get a â&#x20AC;&#x153;tasteâ&#x20AC;? of the establishment. To celebrate special occasions, Finchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hosts numerous types of events â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including wedding rehearsals, birthdays and retirement parties â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and provides off-site catering.

CCA Grad Night enhanced by parent’s ‘Camp CCA’ BY GILLIAN BRAMBLE, INTERN Canyon Crest Academy holds an end-ofthe-year graduation party called Grad Night where seniors can enjoy a safe, festive evening filled with games, food and music. While the Grad Night is always a memorable occasion, parent volunteer Leslie Siegel has added a special element to the evening where students can show their support for the U.S. Armed Forces. For the past three years, Siegel has set up an area that she calls “Camp CCA” where the students write postcards to the troops. “Camp CCA” is dressed in camouflage and surrounded by props from the school’s theatre department to make it look like a true military outpost. The booth is supplied with postcards and pens; the only thing the students need to do is walk up to the booth and write the card. “My idea is that they take a minute out of their social evening to do something meaningful,” Siegel said. “The activity has been very well received and some of the cards are really quite impressive.” Siegel said they have collected up to 250-300 cards each year for the troops. After students are finished writing the postcards they put them in a container that Siegel then takes to the Operation Gratitude organization (www.operationgratitude.com). This year’s graduation party will be held on Friday, June 15, from 10 p.m.-5 a.m. at Canyon Crest Academy.

Beware of spies bringing ‘Blood and Gifts’ at La Jolla Playhouse BY KATHERINE POYTHRESS Billed as “part spy thriller, part black comedy,” “Blood and Gifts” by American playwright J.T. Rogers will make its West Coast premiere at the La Jolla Playhouse, June 12-July 8. Directed by Lucie Tiberghien, the play takes audiences on a journey beyond the political headlines of the official Soviet-Afghan war that lasted from 1981 to 1991, and into the secret spy war behind it. At its heart, the play is also about the political seeds that were sown for the infamous Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on American soil, said Playhouse Resident Dramaturg Shirley Fishman. Both political and personal, the theatrical historic fiction follows CIA operative James Warnock (played by Kelly AuCoin) as he deals with his British and Russian counterparts while trying to shut down Soviet control of Afghanistan. In the process, it reveals the sacrifices made by spies like him to protect American interests in the war. “It tells the toll that these kind of covert actions take on relationships and

the people making them, and it’s all played out against the backdrop of this very heated, political war that’s going on in a foreign country,” Fishman explained. The story takes place in a variety of cultural settings — from Afghanistan and Soviet Russia to 1980s-era Washington, D.C. — providing the creative team with plenty of opportunities to delight audiences with culturally and historically accurate costumes and sounds. Fishman said her favorite part about “Blood and Gifts” is that it operates on so many different levels. The script is gripping,

with a balance of sharp humor and crisp dialogue. That, mixed with metaphors of gifts and games, provides for a thought-provoking story. “Although it’s a political flashpoint over the course of 10 years, it’s also very entertaining,” she said. Rogers is one of the few American playwrights still writing about politics, and “Blood and Gifts” is his first work to debut at the La Jolla Playhouse, Fishman said, but it continues the Playhouse’s long history of dealing with politics through plays.

Ronan Nelson, 16, a sophomore student at Cathedral Catholic High School was critically injured in a club rugby game on April 7. He was taken to Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla where surgery was performed to repair his broken neck. Subsequent strokes from blood clots formed from the injury, which caused health issues. Ronan was eventually transferred to Sharp Memorial Hospital for inpatient rehabilitation, where he continues his effort to regain normal function. The Cathedral Catholic High School (www.cathedralcatholic.org) community and the Coastal Dragons Rugby Club (www. coastaldragonsrugby.com) along with Serevi rugby (www.serevirugby.com ) have teamed up to raise funds to help support Ronan’s rehabilitation.

Sound Effects: Modern music festival challenges listeners, conventions BY DAVID L. CODDON For the sixth year, the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, in collaboration with San Diego New Music, is challenging audiences to listen like they’ve never listened before and to be open to soundscapes that push the boundaries of jazz, chamber and postclassical music. In short, the soundON Festival of Modern Music is for the adventurous, both in the audience and on the stage. The festival returns to the Athenaeum June 14 for a three-day program of performances and workshops by musicians from around the country and abroad. “We want to create a lively interaction” between artist and audience, said keyboardist Christopher Adler of NOISE, San Diego New Music’s chamber ensemblein-residence, which is hosting the festival. “It also gives us a chance to format pieces that are difficult to fit on a regular concert series, such as minimalist pieces, and to broaden the

ing to me, musically and emotionally,” said Dresser, who will perform with Adler’s NOISE ensemble in addition to solo improvisations at the festival. “I consider myself as embracing the broadest view of the jazz traditions, where all of the traditions are grist for the mill, including inspirations and personalities and other disciplines.” Since 2007, Dresser has been involved in telematic music – computer-driven telecommunication that allows artists to play together in different geographical locations. “I feel a deep connection with this process,” he said. “This potential has never existed before in music, and it’s a privilege to be at the cutting edge of a form, of the investigation of a medium. You have to extend yourself, extend all your perceptions.” ]The extension of perceptions is at the heart of the soundON Festival of Modern Music. “Each piece is different,” said NOISE’s Adler.

“There are certainly pieces that are like chamber music. But there’s a tremendous variety, pieces where there is extreme technical precision required. So we’re thinking much less about emotion and much more about mechanistic precision. There are musicians who don’t want to do the same thing over and over again.” Yet don’t be intimidated. “Most of the people who come (to the festival) know it’s going to be something out of the mainstream,” Adler said. “But part of what we’re doing is programming works that are not intensely obtuse. When we’re talking, for example, about soundscape

The Formalist Quartet pieces, they’re actually very beautiful, sort of film-score material. They can be very accessible.” Dresser perhaps puts it most succinctly. “For me,” he said, “it’s really all music.”

Viewpoints panel looks at ‘Healthy Brain’ BY CHRISTY WILSON, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, RSF FOUNDATION Scientists and medical professionals are constantly learning new information about the human brain and how our body and brain work together. Scientific advances in imagery, medical treatments, and genetics are revealing new insights into how our brains process information and how we can keep our brain healthy The Rev. Dr. Jack Baca, Rancho Santa Fe Foundation Executive Director and functioning well into old age. Christy Wilson with event panelists Dr. Tom Flanagan, Muffy Walker On Wednesday, May 9, nearly Lynn and Rich Cusac, Paige Vanosky, Shelby Strong and Dr. Dee Silver 140 people gathered at The Village Church to learn more about the human brain from three local experts: Dr. Thomas Flanagan, Dr. Dee Silver and Muffy Walker. This Viewpoints event was co-presented by The Village Church and the RSF Foundation. The topic was chosen because May is National Mental Health Awareness Month. However, all of our speakers would agree that every day we must be aware of the prevalence of mental illness around us. For those who were unable to join us, each of the speakers was asked to provide several takeaways from their presentations. Dr. Tom Flanagan, medical director of Aurora Behavioral Health Care and Associate Clinical Professor at UCSD, has been practicing neuropsychiatry for the past 41 years. • Stress is a fact of life. The human response to stress has protected our ancient ancestors from predators Cheryl Anderson, Carole and Dick Tibbetts, Sandra Adams-Creatura Gary and Irene Keehner, Doug Jennings and other dangers. • This “fight-or-flight” response prepares our brains and bodies to confront or flee from life-threatening danger. It is characterized by increased blood pressure, rapid pulse, rapid respirations, increased vigilance due to the release of neuro-hormones and cortisol. If this response is prolonged it has deleterious effects. • Twenty-first century humans experience the same “fight-or-flight” Tom Taylor, Jim reaction when afflicted by the various anxiety disorders such as General Gaines Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder and RSF Women’s Fund Publicity Committee Vice Co-Chair Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Gillian Gillies with mom and Women’s Fund founder Libby Frank, Nancy Anderson, Kathy McElhinney (PTSD.) Gayle Gillies Mize • Understanding the neuro-psychiatric mechanism of this stress response provides an important basis for pharmacologic treatments such as antidepressants and anxiolytics and psychologic treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy. Dr. Dee silver is has been a staff neurologist at Scripps Memorial Hospital for 39 years and is president of Coastal Neurological Medical Group. He has spent the last 44 years understanding the causes, prevention and management of neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and Multiple Sclerosis.

Horizon Prep Lions sweep IMSL Spring Championships It’s a first place sweep for the Horizon Prep Lions spring sports teams. The IMSL (Independent Middle School League) Championships were a success for the Horizon Prep boys volleyball, girls basketball, boys track & field and girls track & field teams. “This is about much more than trophies and titles,” says Horizon Prep Middle School Athletic Director Jeff Sutherland, “this is about developing the character of our athletes — on and off the playing field and court. In that regard, our young athletes have truly made us proud.”

The Horizon Prep boys & girls track & field takes first place in the IMSL Championship meet: (L-R) Jacob Jablonski, Conrad Blake, Noah Herring, Andrew Setili, Sophie Grizzle, Coach Gregory Thornquest, Kyra Hendrickson, Bella Segoria, Gaby Dale, Coach Laiah Blue, Keely McCallum, Bella DeRosa, Katelyn Butler, Lexi Dale, Madison Hansmeyer (Not Pictured: Rankin Poage, Alec Philibbosian, Braeden Harryman, Lashley Smith, Emma Crosbie, Kristin Webb).

If you have prostate cancer, or know someone who does, you need to know about Calypso, from Varian. It’s a type of “GPS for the body” that focuses radiation treatment directly on the tumor and not on the healthy tissue around it. The result is cancer treatment that’s powerful, highly accurate... and, as a recent clinical study proves, produces significantly fewer side effects. Before you consider radiation treatment for prostate cancer, find out about Calypso at Genesis Healthcare, San Diego’s most experienced prostate cancer specialists. The Genesis multidisciplinary team offers you the latest technology, the most innovative treatment options, and truly compassionate care.

This year’s SD Fair offers new food, exhibits, wine festival, rides and a ‘shopper shuttle’ BY JOE TASH The good news is that some of the food booths at this year’s San Diego County Fair, which starts Friday, June 8, will be offering healthier fare for those counting calories or watching their cholesterol. But the better news for everyone else is that a fairgrounds tradition of frying anything that can be speared on a stick will continue full throttle this year. Deep-fried peanut butter-and-jelly sandwiches and Trix cereal are the newest entries in the artery clogging demolition derby that is the fair’s collection of food concessions. Too light for your taste? How about chicken fried steak on a stick? And don’t forget the cured meats. “Bacon, bacon and more bacon” is the watchword, according to Donna Ruhm, fairgrounds concessions manager. One food booth (located near the infield bridge) will offer turkey legs wrapped in a full pound of bacon — called the “Caveman Turkey Club.” Ruhm and other fairgrounds staff gave a preview of what to expect during this year’s county fair at Tuesday’s meeting of the 22nd District Agricultural Association board. The gates officially open at 11 a.m. on Friday, for a 24-day run through July 4. This year’s run will include two more days than in 2011, and fairgrounds officials are hoping for record-breaking attendance of more than 1.5 million, said Linda Zweig, fairgrounds spokeswoman. Last year, 1.412 million guests passed the fair’s turnstiles. Admission will be $13 for adults, the same as last year, but according to Zweig, many options exist for fairgoers to avoid paying full price for tickets. On opening

The San Diego County Fair begins June 8. Photo/Jon Clark day and Tuesday, June 12, $4 discount tickets will be available at Albertson’s stores with a minimum $10 purchase. And for people not satisfied with one — or two or three — visits can buy a run-of-the-fair pass for $24. This year will also be the last that smoking will be allowed on the fairgrounds; four designated smoking areas will be available, down from five smoking areas last year. At its meeting in May, the fair board voted to ban smoking completely starting with the 2013 fair. Ruhm said 82 rides will be offered at this year’s fair, along with 60 midway games. Revenue goals are $7 million from rides and $14 million in food sales, Ruhm said. Fairgoers will be able to peruse and buy merchandise from 500 vendor booths set up in various locations on the fairgrounds. Special exhibits on space exploration and astronomy and “Area Fifty-Fun,” devoted to popular culture about space aliens, will be tied to the theme of this year’s fair, “Out of this World.” Visitors can take photos at

RSF Women’s Fund grants $37,000 to fund art instruction at Liberty School On May 16, the RSF Women’s Fund fully funded the NTC Foundation-Liberty School grant request for $37,600. These funds will be used to maintain funding for art instructors, supplies and leadership for the Liberty School program. Since 2007, The Liberty School at the NTC Foundation has maintained a successful record of educating at-risk students and students of the Juvenile Court System through art, dance, photography and karate. The Liberty School shares space at the NTC Promenade, formerly the Navy Training Center in Point Loma, which has been transformed into a vibrant arts and culture district encompassing over 40 art, dance, music, science, math, technology and cultural organizations. Some of these include Jean Isaac’s San Diego Dance Theater, Malashock Dance, U.S. Karate Academy, California Space Grant Foundation, Quilt Visions and ARTS: A Reason to Survive. These organizations are working with students from ALBA (Alternative Learning for Behavior and Attitude), JCCS (Juvenile Court and Community Schools) and 3rd graders from Dewey Elementary School

providing them hands-on enrichment based curriculum that allows the students to express themselves creatively. The students may come by one bus, or sometimes three buses, but come they do. The result is an attendance rate of 98 percent among eligible students, outstanding for this student population. Once they arrive, students get the opportunity to create art while gaining technical expertise from professional artists and, at the same time, developing their own skills. The hope is that students will apply these newly learned skills to real world situations in his or her life, thereby improving their individual sense of selfworth. The NTC Promenade is open to the public and offers numerous shows, dance and art classes and galleries. For more information, please visit their website at www. ntcpromenade.org.

Also new to the fair will be an exhibit titled “Our Body: The Universe Within,” which will be open every day of the fair in the Surfside Race Place. A separate $7 ad-

mission fee is required. Last week, fairgrounds officials announced a new service called the “shopper shuttle,” a van that will carry visitors from the fairgrounds to Del Mar and Solana Beach and back, each day during the fair’s run from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. During its run, the fair will be closed every Monday except July 2.

Dating with Children Dear Dr. Diana, My boyfriend is going to move in with me and my teenage daughter and son. For the past year and a half, I’ve seen him mostly on the weekends when the kids were with their dad. So my kids don’t know my boyDr. Diana Weissfriend (let’s call him Jim) Wisdom very well. Jim and I are both ready for the next step in our relationship. We would both like to get married. But we agree that we should live together to all get to know each other better first. I’ve already gotten some flak from my mother about having him move in before we are married. I’m not writing to see what you think about us living together before we get married. But I am wondering if you have any tips for us on the best way to make this work. Thank you. — Moving Forward Dear Moving Forward, Ideally, before your boyfriend moves in with you, your children will have gotten to know him better. The best way to do this is spending time together doing activities that you all enjoy (especially the kids). This way they won’t feel like a stranger is moving into their home. It can also give you all a chance to explore the chemistry between everyone. While it’s understandable that you and your boyfriend want to live together to all get to know each other better before getting married, spending time all together before living together is a practical and lower risk starting place. So, here are some tips on the best ways to incorporate your boyfriend into your life and home with your children: TIPS:

•Spend time getting to know each other by doing activities that everyone enjoys before and after your boyfriend moves in; •Give the kids plenty of notice before he moves in (at least a month). Don’t just spring it on them; •Make sure that all family members have privacy; •Keep your physical affection between you and your boyfriend to a minimum in front of the kids — be especially discrete when it comes to sex; •Don’t push the relationship between your boyfriend and your kids; encourage him to be patient and to go with the flow as much as possible at first; •Insist on having a respectful atmosphere between all the individuals in your home; •Promote open and honest communication – teenagers are famous for withdrawing from the family and acting like they don’t care. Don’t be fooled. In most cases, they do. •Listen to your children. If you listen to what they tell you versus what you want to hear, they will tell you how they feel and what they need. •Everyone’s needs should matter — but the kids need to know that their feelings and needs are at least as important if not more important than yours or your boyfriends. Especially in the beginning of the new living situation. •Keep a long range perspective. It’s a big adjustment for everyone. Keep your expectations low and goals reasonable. Typically, developing a cohesive and flourishing stepfamily takes anywhere from two to seven years.

Luxury womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s consignment site offers a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;unique closet-to-closetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience notes upcoming sales â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in this case from Akris, Iron Lady and Bottega & Balenciaga â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daily picks. And on Fridays, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a handbag sale. To access the site, one must first sign up as a member, although there is no fee and no obligation, which Green says has become fairly routine practice with similar sites. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To maintain the quality they like to know whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking at the site,â&#x20AC;? she explained. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also an option to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;first-lookâ&#x20AC;? member for $5 a month and a way to sign up as a consigner. The site recently drew a rave re-

view from the blog Fashionista. Com: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Despite its name, the price tags on the designer duds at TheRealReal are pretty unreal: Like, 90 percent off the original tickets, unreal.â&#x20AC;? Green, who for a while wrote a fashion column for these newspapers, said she sees great value in theRealReal because it helps people let go of things they no longer wear. In her role as a fashion stylist, she loves â&#x20AC;&#x153;going into closets and editing clothes.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all have those days when we go into our closet and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I have all these clothes and nothing to wear,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If a woman canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get dressed

in five minutes, they need a closet edit.â&#x20AC;? Her own experience with the company has shown her that by having an opportunity to sell things youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not using, you can buy items that are more up to date. And, yes, she said, she has found herself selling her own clothes and buying new ones from the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I do the pick-ups, I see amazing merchandise,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have to remind myself, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m working.â&#x20AC;?

The San Francisco-based company accepts only goods from a specified list of designers, be they clothes and shoes, jewelry, scarves or handbags, which Green says are the bestselling items on the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anything that women can wear on their bodies, even blankets, can be considered,â&#x20AC;? said Green, a Rancho Santa Fe resident who first learned about theRealReal when she and her husband were living temporarily in Northern California. In a recent press release, founder and CEO Julie Wainright said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the first time, consumers of luxury fashion have an easy, secure and fun way to recycle their designer purchases to a mass audience of self-selected, interested buyers. We provide a unique â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;closet-to-closetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience and a stylish, fun shopping experience for anyone who loves designer fashion at a fabulous price point.â&#x20AC;? Green said she learned about theRealReal when they were getting ready to move back to Rancho Santa Fe and found â&#x20AC;&#x153;a tenant that wanted to move in quickly. With only two weeks to go, she decided to donate some things and consign those with higher value. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tested the waters and sent them 10 things that all sold immediately,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding that within six weeks she received a check. Most consignment sites pay only 40 percent to 50 percent, but theRealReal pays 60 percent, she noted. If you sell more than $1,500 in goods in a year, the rate moves to 70 percent. Shortly after her â&#x20AC;&#x153;test,â&#x20AC;? Green received a call from the company asking her to be their San Diego manager. In her role, she handles local advertising and for customers who consign 10 or more items, she will pick up and inspect the items â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which must be clean and in good condition â&#x20AC;&#x201D; before packing and shipping them to the company headquarters. For those with fewer items, the company will arrange for free shipping via UPS, which comes in the form of a credit once the item has sold, according to the website. She recently visited the office and got a great sense of the culture and the quality of the goods being resold through the site. Once the items arrive the staff photographs and posts them on the site. Daily emails are sent to members showing the newest pieces, which on a recent day ranged from Gucci and Calvin Klein to Piazza Sempione and Theory. It also

lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (877) 393-6812 or visit the Internet Web site: www.priorityposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case [OWB-111702-CA]. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Beneficiary has heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned, a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a Written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the County where the Real Property is located and more than three months have elapsed since such recordation.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Prudential’s Stennes and Rice host author event for ‘Avalanche: Lessons of Love’ Lisa Stennes and Gwyn Rice of Prudential California Realty hosted an exclusive book signing event for “Avalanche: Lessons of Love” at Gwyn Rice and Lisa one of Rancho Stennes Santa Fe’s largest and most luxurious estates. “It was an honor to be able to give people a chance to meet the authors and share in this incredibly moving and inspirational story,” said Stennes. Having lost two husbands and raised six children, Kris Ochoa-Keane drew from her personal experiences battling adversity to write “Avalanche: Lessons of Love,” which she co-authored with her brother Stephen J. Oddo. Though the book deals with Kris’ bouts with depression and her innermost fears when faced with tragedy and betrayal, the book is a message of hope, designed to help others overcome the grief of losing a loved one. “Kris is a very upbeat and positive individual,” added Rice. “Her triumph over adversity and strength of character in spite of overwhelming odds is a story that will inspire anyone.” The event was held at 17514 Rancho La Noria, a seven-bedroom estate nestled on approximately 4.6 acres of land that is being offered for sale by Stennes and Rice. Created

to provide an extravagant and comfortable setting for both the homeowner’s daily life and large scale events, the property offers a detached guest house, a pool and covered loggias. There is a chef’s kitchen and a paneled library in the main house, which boasts approximately 11,046 square feet of living space.

With over 60 years of combined experience in the local real estate industry, they offer their clients an insider’s perspective about local property values, schools, service providers and entertainment options.
