RSF Foundation/residents create Armed Forces Interest Group to support San Diego’s military

BY DIANE Y. WELCH CONTRIBUTOR In support of San Diego’s military, several community members from Rancho Santa Fe have come together to create the Armed Forces Interest Group (AFIG), an initiative of the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation.

The goal of AFIG, currently with about 30 members and a core group of 15, is to provide sustainable funding and volunteer support through already established nonprofit organizations to assist military personnel and their families during active service and afterward, according to Christie Wilson, executive director for the RSF Foundation. “We also want to raise the awareness of the needs of San Diego military in general,” she said.

Very few people realize what those needs are, assuming erroneously that the Department of Defense is going to take care of all the needs of the military, Wilson said. But there is See MILITARY, page 26

Mountain lion spotted in RSF On July 5, at about 2 p.m., a resident in the RSF area of the 16100 block of Via Del Alba saw what he described as a mountain lion cross his driveway. The animal was walking.

It was not aggressive. The sighting was reported to Fish and Game.

“If you see a mountain lion you should not approach the animal,” RSF Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser said. “If you should see a mountain lion, you are encouraged to call Fish and Game at 858-467-4257. If the animal is a threat, call 911.”

Although historically sightings are rare, there are several types of wild animals that live in Rancho Santa Fe, WellSee LION, page 18

Buzz: Broadband coverage among top priorities for new board

BY RSF ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT JACK QUEEN I am looking forward to serving as the Association President this year and would like to start off by thanking Deb Jack Queen Plummer and Tom Lang for their three years of service on the board. They are great people who worked very hard for the benefit of the community and deserve recognition for their effort.

I would like to use this space to keep you updated on what the Association is up to and the issues that the community will be facing.

As president, one of my goals this year will be to focus our efforts on supporting our community and the amenities that make the Covenant so special. I will be working to encourage your support of the village retail merchants and the village core. My wife Patty and

I set out last week with the goal of eating at every dinning facility in the village, including The Inn, at least once during the week. It was a great experience, not only was the food and ambiance terrific but when you add in the friends that we ran into in the process and the fact we didn’t have to drive very far, you have to wonder why more residents aren’t enjoying what the local merchants have to offer. If you haven’t had dinner or lunch at one of the restaurants in the village, The Inn or our very own Golf Club, you are missing a very enjoyable experience.

As for projects and issues facing the board this year, it should be a very productive year. The Association board will have its annual planning retreat this year on July 18 and 19 at The Inn to set our goals for the year. We have a head start on prior boards as we have the recently completed Long Range Plan to begin to build on. In studying the responses to the questionnaire, it was clear that our residents care about the ru-

ral aspect of Rancho Santa Fe above all else, so we will carefully measure the impact of what we plan to do, and how it affects our rural environment.

One of the very first issues we will be addressing will be the issue of broadband coverage for the entire community. It was also clear from the survey that this is another top concern of our members. The first step in the process will be to establish a special ad hoc committee of Association members to dig into the issue and develop an understanding of the options that are available to us. We need experienced volunteers that can address the current needs, as well as the ability to take a look at the future to have a clear understanding of what is around the corner. If anyone has an interest in serving on the committee please give Daria a call at the Association office at 858-756-1174 or email her at daria@rsfassociation. org. We are looking for members with a background in this field but do not have any financial ties to a service

provider or a communication product.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve on the board and I look forward to seeing you in the village or at one of our upcoming Association meetings. We intend to get introduced to some of our staff, their job descriptions and personal backgrounds and we will also have some meet and greets with our local merchants. So come by, make some comments and complain if you must, but at least have a cup of coffee.

See you there!

RSF’s Veronica Atkinson makes the Dean’s List at Gonzaga University

Veronica Atkinson, a resident of Rancho Santa Fe, has earned placement on the Gonzaga University Dean’s List for spring semester 2011. Students must earn a 3.5 to 3.69 gradepoint average to be listed.

The university is located near downtown Spokane, Wash.

Protect your home from a silent killer Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless toxic gas that is responsible for hundreds of deaths nationwide each year. Because it is not possible to see, taste, or smell the toxic fumes, high levels of CO can kill you before you even know it is in your home. At lower levels of exposure, CO causes mild effects that are often mistaken for the flu, such as headaches, dizziness, disorientation, nausea and fatigue.

The effects of CO exposure can vary greatly from person to person depending on age, overall health and the concentration and length of exposure. CO can be produced by any natural or fossil fuel source. This includes, but is not limited to, gas space heaters; leaking chimneys, furnaces, and wood stoves; gas water heaters; gas stoves; gasoline powered equipment and automobiles; and tobacco smoke. There are ways to protect your family from CO poisoning. Make sure all gas appliances are in good working condition. You may want to have someone from the gas company come out and inspect your gas lines for leaks. Keep your chimneys clear of debris and make sure your furnace is in good working order. Keep the door between the home and an attached garage closed at all times. Perhaps the easiest thing to do to protect your family is to install a CO alarm. Similar to smoke alarms, CO alarms detect the presence of CO in the air and make a noise to alert residents when the gas level approaches harmful levels.

As of July 1, 2011, the state of California requires all “single-family homes with an attached garage or fossil fuel source to install carbon monoxide alarms...multi-family leased or rental dwellings, such as apartment buildings, have until Jan. 1, 2013.� If you suspect CO poisoning has occurred, call 9-1-1. Ventilate area, turn off potentially problematic appliances, and leave the house. Do not re-enter the building until you are cleared to do so by emergency personnel. Make sure all medical personnel know you suspect CO poisoning. By installing a CO alarm and familiarizing yourself with symptoms of exposure, you are safeguarding yourself and your family from potential tragedy. — RSF Fire District

Local resident/Kavli Foundation president participates in science discussion with President Obama

BY JOE TASH CONTRIBUTOR Local resident Robert Conn found his visit last month to the White House, which included a meeting with President Barack Obama in the Oval Office, “both wonderful and surreal.”

Conn, who is president of the Kavli Foundation, a philanthropic organization dedicated to the advancement of science, traveled to Washington, D.C., to honor a group of award-winning scientists.

When the group arrived at the White House on June 6 for the presidential visit, its members had to go through two separate security checkpoints before they were allowed to enter the West Wing, where “we were marching like a set of soldiers around a labyrinth of hallways,” said Conn.

Next, they waited in a hallway near two doors — one made of beautiful, stained wood and the other, a non-descript white door.

“All of a sudden, the white door opens, and there’s President Obama,” said Conn.

The group of scientists and dignitaries was arranged

the areas of neuroscience, nanoscience and astrophysics. The cash prizes are split among the award recipients.

Winners also receive a scroll and gold medal, which were presented last year by King Harald of Norway in a ceremony held in Oslo.

“It’s a reward for having done something terrific for science,” Conn said.

While the award — and its parent foundation — might not be household names, that may be changing thanks to such high-profile activities such as presidential meetings. Last year marked the second time the awards have been given, following their debut in 2008, when winners met with former President George W. Bush just before he left office.

The ceremony is modeled after the Kavli Prize’s more famous cousin, the Nobel Peace Prize, which is also awarded in Oslo, Conn said.

Conn is a former dean of the Jacobs School of Engineering at UCSD. After leaving the university in 2003, he joined a La Jolla-based venture capital firm, then took over the presidency of

“There you are, an hour later, standing on the sidewalk,” where the experience had begun, said Conn. “In the middle you had this fantastic trip, this magic carpet trip to another world, it’s almost like now you’re back to reality.”

The scientists who met with Obama were American winners of the 2010 Kavli Prize. Every other year, the Kavli Foundation, in conjunction with the government of Norway, presents three $1 million prizes for outstanding achievement in

The Kavli Foundation was established in 2000 by Fred Kavli, a Norwegianborn physicist who built an electronics company, Kavlico Corp., and also amassed a large real estate portfolio.

According to Conn, Kavli

started the foundation with a gift in the hundreds of millions, and the foundation now spends $15 million to $20 million per year for its various programs.

Along with the Kavli Prize, the foundation funds scientific institutes at 15 universities around the world, including UCSD and three others in California.

“This is really about enabling great science to be done and making sure the

public appreciates what scientists do and how science affects their lives in so many ways,” said Conn of the work of the foundation, which is based in Oxnard.

“We’re trying to provide that early resource to organizations that do great science, to enable them to do more of the inventive side, the early work before it’s ready for prime time,” said Conn, who is himself an applied

RSF Historical Society to hold UCSD’s Fox to leave chancellor’s post annual home tour July 16 The Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society will hold its annual home tour on Saturday, July 16, from 12:30 - 4:30 p.m.

Featured are homes designed by notable architects, including Lilian Rice. Born in National City, Rice was one of the first prominent female architects in California.

From 1922 to 1928, she designed many of the key civic, commercial and residential structures in the village. Tour participants can enjoy Rice’s 1925 design of the home built for Claude and Florence Terwilliger.

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

The historic Osuna Adobe will be available for viewing on the tour this year. Erected in 1831, it was the first house in the area and was included in the Mexican land grants received by Juan Maria Osuna in the 1840s. The lands granted to Osuna later became known as Rancho Santa Fe. Through more than a century, the home’s Spanish motif served as the inspiration for the esthetics of the expanding village.

Another tour stop is Gordon B. Kaufmann’s 1935 example of Mediterranean Revival and Art Deco styles. Kaufmann was best known for designing the Santa Anita Race Track, the Los Angeles Times Building and the Hollywood Palladium.

A fourth home was designed by Richard Neutra in the 1930s. One of modern architecture’s most important figures, Neutra

came to California in the 1920s from his native Vienna. With his airy, geometric creations, he brought a West Coast variation to the modernist movement in residential design.

A more contemporary design from the early 1990s was built by the Holcombe Brothers. The house is remarkable for its beautiful blending of traditions from Mexico and Southern California. Visitors are particularly drawn to the home’s outdoor living room, covered by a roof but open to the air.

A second contemporary house on the tour was created by Gillespie Residential Design and built in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. The home was patterned after the designs of Lilian Rice. Many of the architectural details, the cozy outdoor spaces and the roofline’s low profile make the home reminiscent of an old world gentleman’s ranchero.

The Society’s sole fundraising event of the year will help cover operating costs for its missions to preserve local history and educate the public.

Tickets and maps for the self-guided tour are $30 for members and $40 for nonmembers. They may be purchased at La Flecha House, the Society’s office and museum at 6036 La Flecha. Checks may be sent to the Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society at P.O. Box 1, Rancho Santa Fe, CA 92067. Call 858-756-9291 for more information.

RSF resident named to ARC board Rancho Santa Fe resident Glenn Chapin was named to The Arc of San Diego Foundation’s 2011-2012 Board of Directors. Since 1992, the Foundation has raised over $5 million in funds to support The Arc of San Diego.

The Arc of San Diego is the largest, most comprehensive service provider for people with disabilities in San Diego County. Each year, it serves over 2,500 children and adults with disabilities such as autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome. For more information on The Arc of San Diego, please visit www.arc-sd.com.

Chancellor Marye Anne Fox, chancellor of UCSD since 2004, announced Monday she will step down as chancellor in June 2012 to return to teaching and research as a distinguished professor of chemistry at the university.

The UC Office of the President will begin an international search for her successor beginning this fall, according to a press release issued by the university Tuesday morning.

Mark Yudoff, president of the University of California, said in the release, Fox has “added striking breadth and depth to the university’s already sterling reputation. The accomplishments of her service give renewed energy and purpose to the institution, and set a visionary course for the 21st century.”

The seventh Chancellor at UCSD, and the first woman to be appointed as permanent chancellor, Fox led the university this year through its 50th anniversary celebration that included a call for volunteer service, focus on educaMarye Anne Fox tional offerings and celebrations of and for students and alumni.

The press release noted that Fox “assembled a diverse senior leadership team during her tenure which saw the campus and its faculty earn Nobel and Pulitzer prizes; garner top international and national rankings for research, teaching, medicine and the arts; gain international notice of the university’s discoveries, inventions and other achievements; and merit presidential recognition for a superlative record of public service.”

Fox said in the release: “I consider it a privilege beyond measure to work with so many extraordinary scholars, teachers, scientists, doctors, staff members and students. The university has all of the human and creative resources we need to achieve even greater success in the decades ahead.”

Under her leadership, the release noted that the campus completed a $1 billion-dollar capital campaign and expanded “at an unprecedented pace to accommodate increasing numbers of students and a billion-dollar research enterprise.

“Since her arrival in 2004, the campus has initiated or completed more than $3.5 billion in capital improvement projects that include new construction, renovation of existing space and infrastructure improvements. Once all projects are completed, they will add about 3.4 million assignable square feet of space at the campus, an approximate 40 percent increase.” At the conclusion of her tenure as Chancellor, Fox will return to the UC San Diego Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry to teach and conduct research.

Additional information regarding Fox’s tenure at UC San Diego may be found atwww. mafox.ucsd.edu.

Ranch Clubhouse Connection: Junior Golf opportunity for RSF Association members In keeping with a rich club tradition of developing fine golfers, the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club staff is again going to conduct a full slate of junior golf camps for the young people of the Rancho Santa Fe Covenant owners.

These camps offer many benefits for your children and your grandchildren. All golf members and Association members children and grandchildren are welcome. The golf camps are designed to be enjoyable and fun so the kids will feel good about the activity and develop a love and appreciation for the game of golf.

Some studies show that as many as half of the children entering kindergarten are obese. Golfing and carrying your bag or using a pull cart is a great way to stay fit and strong; a particularly important consideration in this electronic era. Our camps also embrace, endorse and teach the “Core Values” as set down by the national First Tee organization. Please go to the First Tee site and familiarize yourself with what golf has to offer your young people at http://www.thefirsttee.org/club/scripts/view/view_insert.asp?IID=64763&NS=PUBLIC The golf skills specific part of the program will focus on: 1) Putting, chipping and pitching.

2) Full swing technique for all clubs.

3) Golf etiquette.

4) Friendly low key competition.

5) Socialization of the child and cooperation within a group of students in a golf setting.

The camps will be held: July 12-15, July 26-29, Aug. 9-12, Aug. 23-26.

Please contact the Golf Shop to sign up your child at 858-756-3094 or you can e-mail, PGA Professional assistant, Matt Gibbens at mattgibbens@pga.com.

Wouldn’t it be great to watch that junior golfer make his/her first par then first birdie then shoot par for nine holes, etc? Wouldn’t it be great to have them beat you for the first time?

Within the last few years we have had two kids receive full ride scholarships to fine universities: Jamie Lovemark/USC and Devon Brown/Northwestern. We also have two contributing members of the Torrey Pines High School Boys State Championship team, Ryan Burgess and DJ Magee, as well as many more multiple awards and winners in the renowned and competitive SD Junior Golf Association events. Also some of the above mentioned have gone on to win events at the highest national levels and even gain privileges to play full time on the PGA Tour. Dozens more have become accomplished players in the “game for a lifetime.” They all got their start in our junior camps.

Additionally, the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club offers a very special low cost junior membership to children and legal wards of RSF Association members. This membership offers total junior golf privileges! If you are an Association member and not a Golf Club member this is a fantastic opportunity if your child is interested in golf. What better place could your child be but on the golf course. Please contact Head PGA Professional, Scott Johnson at 858756-3094 or rsfgolfshop@yahoo.com

TPHS grad realizes entrepreneurial dream with company ‘Notehall’

BY MARLENA MEDFORD STAFF WRITER When Sean Conway graduated from Torrey Pines High School in 2002, he knew exactly what he wanted to do next.

“I wanted to be an entrepreneur, that was the goal from the very beginning,” he said. “I used to drive around Rancho Santa Fe and Del Mar and think to myself, ‘I want to own a house just like these one day.’”

Now, at the ripe age of 27, Conway is well on his way to realizing those adolescent daydreams.

Upon graduating from the University of Arizona in 2009, Conway and his classmate Justin Miller launched Notehall, an online marketplace for college students who want to buy and sell class notes. The pair soon after brought on D.J. Stephan and Fadi Chalfoun to help run the company, who also attended the University of Arizona.

“The concept of entrepreneurship in the classroom is interesting,” he said.

“I have [Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder], so in college, I had a note-taker. When other people would hear that, they’d always tell me that they wished they had their own

Torrey Pines graduate Sean Conway (left) co-founded Notehall with Justin Miller (right) in 2009. The two met while attending the University of Arizona. note-taker. I realized it made sense to offer the service. Besides, why not financially reward students who have the talent of taking good notes?

This is a way college students can earn some extra money.”

In 2009 Notehall earned Conway and his crew a spot on “Shark Tank,” an ABC reality TV show that gives up-and-

coming entrepreneurs the chance to pitch their ideas to a panel of successful entrepreneurs.

“The night our episode aired, we had 30,000 visitors flood our website within a few minutes. We were the number one Google search that day. It was so exciting.”

And as if that wasn’t exciting enough, that same week Notehall’s executive

team was named on Business Week’s annual list of “Best Young Entrepreneurs.”

Today, Notehall offers its service to 65 schools, and though it now has more than 300,000 users, Conway said he hopes to at least double that number within a year. TechCrunch. com recently reported that, according to industry buzz, Notehall is being acquired

by Chegg, a textbook rental company, for an undisclosed amount of cash and stock. Though Conway said he was not at liberty to comment on the possible deal, he did affirm that he’s committed to the core concept of Notehall. He also offered a few pearls of wisdom for any other Torrey Pines High School students who, like him, may be out cruising the neighborhood, doing a little daydreaming of their own.

“If you want to be an entrepreneur, start young, start now. Start when you don’t have bills and you’re living in your parents’ home. You’ll learn a lot, and trust me, it’s worth it.”

High-achieving RSF resident participates in Pepperdine’s Youth Citizenship Seminar RSF’s Ann Marie Heymann was among the select group of high-achieving high school juniors who participated in Pepperdine University’s 34th annual Youth Citizenship Seminar (YCS). The event took place on Pepperdine’s Malibu campus from Monday, June 20, to Friday, June 24, with over 270 exemplary high school juniors from throughout Southern California participating.

At the annual event, students interacted with today’s leaders, exploring current national and world topics, and sharing memorable interaction with their peers. This year’s inspirational speakers included such notable figures as Los Angeles Dodger Tommy Lasorda, heavyweight boxing champion George Foreman, television host Chris Harrison, and TV personality Ben Stein.

Founded in 1977 by Pepperdine’s Chancellor Emeritus Charles B. Runnels, the seminar inspires high school students to make a personal contribution to America’s future.

Each year, approximately 1,200 YCS applications are received from public and independent high schools throughout Southern California. The students selected to attend represent a wide variety of strengths through their scholastic, athletic, musical, and theatrical accomplishments, and they collectively embody a unique desire to make a personal contribution to America’s future.

Michael R. Cunningham, Ph.D.

Seasoned entrepreneur and ‘turnaround artist’ assumes post as dean of SDSU business college at critical financial time

BY ARTHUR LIGHTBOURN CONTRIBUTOR “I went into it kicking and screaming,” said RSF resident Michael Cunningham, clinical professor of entrepreneurship and newly-appointed dean of San Diego State University (SDSU) College of Business Administration, recalling how he went into business on his own.

Why? Because, by age 24, he was the ‘go-to-guy’ on Wall Street for overnight financial printing, making $1 million a year in commissions as a print salesman.

Simple. Hundreds of jobs in by 8 o’clock at night, printed and ready to go by 6 the next morning. In the early 1980s, not many companies could do that. And all Cunningham had to do was sell, make promises and deliver on what he promised.

“Life was good,” he said.

“I had my own house in Nutley, New Jersey. Buddies from my college wrestling team came down. I taught

them how to sell printing. I had a full head of hair. It was great.

“But then, the owner of the printing company I worked for, my mentor, died. And his son took over the business and ran it into the ground. We’d had such a great book of business…So I was forced to open up my own business.”

As it turned out, it was one of the best decisions of his life.

We interviewed Cunningham recently over morning coffee at Denny’s in Del Mar. Looking a bit like actor George Clooney, albeit with thinning hair, Cunningham, 51, is a fit-looking 5-foot-11, 188 pounds. And like Clooney he has brown eyes and the charm of a natural-born salesman seasoned with reallife, high stakes entrepreneurial experience.

Cunningham officially took over the helm of the university’s business school on June 20. He has taught

entrepreneurial courses at SDSU since 2005, after selling a printing firm he founded for more than $100 million.

“My goal is to create as many opportunities for as many students as I can and help rebuild the economy one student at a time,” he said.

Cunningham assumes his new position as dean of SDSU’s College of Business Administration at a time when California’s colleges and universities are in crisis facing funding cutbacks that could lead to even lower enrollment, fewer teachers, larger class sizes and a diminishing of academic excellence.

“Basically, we have a wonderful institution,” he said. “I want to build the reputation of the school to be nationally recognized.

That has to do with ranking.”

Currently, the business school undergraduate program ranks 86th in national ranking of public universities and the MBA graduate program is in the top 100.

“We want to get both programs into the top 50 within the next five years,” Cunningham said.

In today’s tough financial times, he said, “we can’t afford to be all things to all people. So we have to pick our specialties and make sure we are ‘best in class’ in those disciplines.

“I want to make sure that some of our specialized programs, for instance, entrepreneurship, accountancy, international business, real estate are all within the top 20 ranks of those specialties.”

Born in the New York City neighborhood and borough of Astoria Queens, Cunningham originally intended to become a New York City firefighter like his father, grandfather and great grandfather. “I grew up in a household of heroes,” he said.

But when he was old enough “to take the test,” New York City was teetering on the brink of bankruptcy.

Instead of hiring, the city was laying off firemen and police. Cunningham, who made his mark as a wrestler in high school, was recruited to wrestle for the University

Michael R. Cunningham, Ph.D. Photo/Jon Clark of Massachusetts, Amherst, on a work/study financial aid program, where he wrestled without distinction, but earned a degree in business administration in 1982.

“I was a very good high school wrestler and a bad college wrestler.”

He remembers, as a defining moment in his life, the time when he and his team were wrestling against Harvard in Cambridge and were actually beating them, when a chant arose from the Harvard fans: ‘You’re beating us today, but you’ll be working for us tomorrow.’

“At that moment,” Cunningham said, “I realized that I’d better do something with my life or else I was just going to be another cog in the wheel.

“So I looked for a mentor. I had great role models in my life, but none of them were business people. A friend’s father from my high school wresting team owned a printing company and he became my mentor.

“I started selling printing on Wall Street. It was straight commission. I loved it. You eat what you killed. I thought it was great.”

He eventually and reluctantly opened his own print manufacturing plant — Cunningham Graphics International (CGI) — on May 5, 1989, in Jersey City, N.J., in a 10,000 sq. ft. rented space, with 11 employees and with one press that he

leased for $18,711 a month.

“I had to sign my house over as a personal guarantee.

They were trying times,” he recalled.

While growing the business as CEO, he multi-tasked his way at night to a master’s degree from New York University (NYU) in 1996 and shifted CGI’s focus to serving globalized financial markets through international strategic partnering and expanding with offices in New York, London, Hong Kong, and as 2,000 employees in 19 factories in six countries.

He credits his studies at NYU with inspiring him to research the possibility of taking his company global.

He based his 300-page master’s dissertation on the idea of strategic partnering through technology, got an “A” for his effort, wrote a business plan based on the dissertation and, as a result, won a three-year $60 million global printing contract with Credit Suisse/First Boston.

“That was pretty cool,” he said.

“I was a small businessperson, but when I wrote that business plan and implemented it for the globalization of our product, that’s when I became an entrepreneur.

“And that’s why I’m so enamored and want to give back to higher education because it had such a profound impact on my life,” he explained.

In 1998, Cunningham took his company public on Nasdaq and subsequently sold it for in excess of $100 million to Automatic Data Processing (ADP). He retired to academia in 2000, moved to Rancho Santa Fe, coached wresting at his children’s middle school, began teaching at San Diego State in 2005, and earned a Ph.D. in administration, leadership and technology from NYU in 2006.

In late 2007, he was called back to his former company as CEO to devise and execute a turnaround strategy, culminating in the successful re-sale of the company to a private New Yorkbased equity firm in 2008.

He remained another two years, repositioning the company and rebranding it the Diversified Global Graphics Group.

Now back at SDSU, he is already working with faculty and other stakeholders on a new strategic plan that will focus on the business college’s strongest specialties.

“We just have to tell our story,” he said, “and one of the ways we are going to do that is by leveraging our biggest asset which is our alumni.”

The business school itself has more than 70,000 alumni with 80 percent living in Southern California and with many graduates occupying the C-suites (CEO, CFO, COO, CIO, and CMO) of top companies.

“So we are leveraging those networks and the business community to get our story out, to hire our students [as interns], to mentor students, to lecture in our classrooms, and to get involved financially and strategically.”

Also, to offset the financial constraints on SDSU, he wants to attract more out-ofstate and international students who pay double the tuition and who do not receive California State financial aid.

“Right now only 5 percent of our student body is from out-of-state, including international. What I am proposing is that we target from 10 to 15 percent from out-or-state and international students, and that we apply 30 to 33 cents of every dollar of out-of-state tuitions toward financial aid for instate students.

He argues that such a plan would not reduce the 1,200 seats allocated for instate students in the business school next year already under the state’s current budget-crisis enrollment regulations, but “what this will do is give us diversity of experience, geographic diversity and ethnic diversity, as well as help supplement our finances. We can increase our total business school enrollment by 10 to 15 percent without affecting our in-state admissions.

“The alumni know what a wonderful jewel we have in San Diego State University. But the rest of the world doesn’t know that yet.

So the old adage, ‘Untold Unsold,’ it’s my job to tell See PROFILE, page 26

Local expert converts ‘Magic Bus’ to ‘mobile audio concert hall’

BY DIANE Y. WELCH CONTRIBUTOR Audiophile Jon Whitledge recently completed what he refers to as his “rolling curriculum vitae,” a mobile sound system that officially debuted in April at the San Diego entertainment and restaurant venue Tango Del Rey. “Music is one of the greatest things in life we have to share and enjoy,” according to Whitledge.

“And as our lifestyles become more pressed for time, the solitude of our cars may be the only place where we can enjoy music to its fullest.”

With this in mind, Whitledge, a scientist, engineer, and craftsman set out to design and build a sound system capable of being compared to the finest home audio system, and one step closer to live music.

It represents the culmination of a 22-year industrial career and it took 9,000 hours of labor and six and a half years to complete.

The system’s two-channel stereo includes nine loudspeaker transducers powered by 4620 watts of amplification and is designed with state-of-the-art components using industry names such as Dynaudio, Genesis, Kimber Kable and more. Power is provided by a giant marine battery from Lifeline Batteries. Installed in a retrofitted Mercedes Sprinter cargo van, with form following function, it has been dubbed, “a mobile audio concert hall” by recording engineer Jim Merod.

Whitledge calls it his Magic Bus. Whitledge decided to take on the project because he was looking for an opportunity to “Make an impact, even be the best at something,” he said. “I took stock of my talents and decided that this was doable.

And most things in our life are dictated by a lack of time and a lack of money but the Magic Bus was the first time in my life where I was free to make something with no

Jon Whitledge and his ‘Magic Bus.’ regard for difficulty, time or money. And I think that’s why it turned out so well.”

The skills required to design and build the Magic Bus drew from Whitledge’s numerous disciplines, including mechanical and electrical engineering, acoustics, loudspeaker design, computer-aided design, metalworking, woodworking, advanced composites, automotive and industrial coatings, interior design, subjective listening skills,

and more.

In addition to its technical marvels, the Magic Bus is also the only audio system that is extensively autographed by Grammy Awardwinning and other famous musicians. More than 200 musicians’ signatures increase both the value and the interest in the Magic Bus. Men, passionate about audio, have told Whitledge that he has done a great favor to mankind. “They tell

me, ‘When our wives complain to us, we refer to you, and say, ‘It could be worse!’”

Whitledge, an Ohio native who grew up on a farm, lives with his Brazilian wife Jeaneth, locally. “She is one of the most highly regarded women in audio because of her patience and support. I literally could not have done the project without her, she’s been a big part of this,”he said.

Support was also offered by corporate sponsors. Initially Whitledge sent out technical proposals, some 20 pages long, which were subsequently “ignored,” he said. But as the project moved along sponsors agreed to provide their products in exchange for visibility.

The Magic Bus was exhibited at The Home Entertainment (T.H.E.) Show in Newport Beach last month.

Robert Harley, a noted national audio reviewer, reported accolades for Whitledge’s system. “It was thrilling to get that honor, as

technically the Magic Bus is not an in-home audio system,” said Whitledge about Harley’s blogged review, which reads in part: “The system had effortless dynamics, very high resolution of low-level detail, tremendous timbral fidelity, and threw a soundstage that rivaled that of a well-set-up home system.”

Today Whitledge specializes in the design, installation, and tuning of custom, high-fidelity mobile and home audio systems. In looking ahead, Whitledge would love to take his Magic Bus to Brazil to be a part of the opening ceremonies for Carnivale and would also love to be on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, he said.

Local resident brings top qualification to role as tennis coach

BY KAREN BILLING STAFF WRITER Local resident Adrian Waisfeld has taken a big swing at developing the sport of tennis on the San Diego Jewish Academy campus. In addition to serving as the school’s tennis coach, he also runs his AW Tennis Academy on the campus courts.

Waisfeld has a “PTR Master of Tennis-Performance” qualification, a new program that matches the highest level of the “National Standards for Sports Coaches.” Only five people in the country have completed the master of tennis, including Waisfeld. He prides himself on constantly educating himself on the best practices for progressing young players with potential.

“My dream is to take one of my players to play professionally,” Waisfeld said.

While he would love to have a player become one of the country’s best, he also gets a lot of joy from helping kids learn the game.

“Every kid can play tennis,” Waisfeld said. “It’s amazing when they start to notice they can do it.

I like to see their faces so proud when they hit a shot. I wouldn’t trade my job for anything. I have the best job, the kids are awe-

Adrian Waisfeld on the court with his children. some.”

Waisfeld started playing tennis “late,” as an 11-year-old in his native Argentina. A sports enthusiast, he had played soccer, basketball and swam but decided to pick up tennis.

“I was jealous because my dad played with my older brother,” admitted Waisfeld with a smile.

Almost immediately, the beginner was beating kids who had started playing five years before him.

“It was natural for me, it was

easy,” Waisfeld said.

In 1983, his family attended the Davis Cup in their country, watching Argentinians Guillermo Vilas and Jose-Luis Clerc beat Americans John McEnroe and Gene Mayer.

“After that I told my dad I wanted to be a tennis professional,” Waisfeld said.

He started competing at the junior level and quickly rose up the ranks, reaching the top 10 nationally when he was 18. Waisfeld played all over Europe, mainly in

France and Spain, in the “minor leagues” of the ATP World Tour. Although he had beaten ATP players, he couldn’t afford the high cost of competing at that level.

Waisfeld married his childhood sweetheart and decided to focus instead on teaching the game he loved. In Argentina, he taught every level of tennis player and ran his own tennis academy.

His favorite teaching success story is that of a 79-year-old man who had been diagnosed with cancer and given a year to live. The 79-year-old told Waisfeld he had never hit a backhand with top spin and it was something he wanted to do before he died.

“I worked with him and we did it,” Waisfeld said.

When he moved to San Diego eight years ago for his wife’s new position at UCSD, he aimed to establish his tennis instruction career here. He taught private lessons at the Surf and Turf Tennis Club in Del Mar before landing the job as the tennis coach at SDJA. “I love it because of coaching the teams and also because they gave me space to create my own academy,” Waisfeld said.

The academy started off small and has grown every year, offering instruction to children and adult

players.

Waisfeld said his background makes him a very unique kind of instructor as in Argentina they have a different approach in “creating” an athlete.

“We do a lot of games, we play soccer, football, ultimate Frisbee because you’re learning catching, hand-eye-coordination, running, movements…tennis is not running in a straight line,” Waisfeld said. “I put a lot of focus in physical fitness, it’s important.”

Waisfeld’s playing days are mostly behind him—in 2006 he cracked the top seven in Southern California and was number one in San Diego in the 35-year-old division but he has turned his focus to his students, especially his two children, ages 10 and 13.

“Right now my two kids are playing and I’d rather put my time in them, they have more of a future in tennis than I do,” Waisfeld said.

Through August AW Tennis Academy is offering tennis summer camps for players 6-18.

Sessions remain open throughout July and through the week of Aug. 8. To register, contact Adrian Waisfeld at (858) 692-4242 or email awaisfled@hotmail.com.

Author hopes to inspire others through new book ‘Unleashed’

BY DIANE Y. WELCH STAFF WRITER Timothy Feuling is a busy man. With three distinct areas of passion — his spirituality, his family, and his business — he strives to use his energy to make his mark in each.

A local resident, and a follower of an Eastern-based religious path, Sant Mat, Feuling prides himself with his relationship with God, with his wife Brooke, and their three children, and with those he engages in business with.

For 15 years he and his father-in-law, a retired chiropractor, have run a successful chiropractic insurance company together. In addition, Feuling is active in network marketing, is an impassioned public speaker and has written several books connected with the chiropractic field.

Each of these engagements has enriched Feuling’s life and brought him to a place where he feels truly blessed spiritually, emotionally and financially, he said.

But life wasn’t always that way and in taking stock of

his own journey to his current success he wrote a book that he hopes will inspire others to also take charge of their lives and so reap the same rewards.

The book, titled “Unleashed” and subtitled, “Blueprint to Mental, Physical and Financial Wellbeing” has just been released through No Limit Publishing. It is Feuling’s fifth authored book. “But this is my first book that truly shares my passion for helping others live a more abundant life,” he said.

About five and half years ago Feuling had a midlife crisis. “I hit a massive emotional and financial brick wall. I was running too fast trying to keep up with the Joneses, whoever the heck they are!” he said.

Feuling said he needed a new paradigm. “I had done a lot of family neglect, working 14-16 hour days. I neglected myself.” In reading “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” by author Robert Kiyosaki, Feuling was inspired to follow a different path, that of network marketing – formerly known as multi-level

marketing – and to write his book “Unleashed.” His intention was focused. “I want to help people pick them-

without a leash.

The first chapter – Feuling Naked – introduces the reader to Feuling’s formative years. He was a sensitive child, raised in a lower middle class family that moved frequently, in a world that seemed harsh. “I had a lot of adversity as a child. As a youth I attempted suicide, I wasn’t doing well trying to cope with life.” Feuling wanted the reader to relate to him, to know up front what he had gone through but that he had become successful, nevertheless.

“It’s OK, it’s normal, this is life,” Feuling said.

Other chapters introduce readers to two new paradigms in business to create multiple income streams: internet marketing and network marketing, particularly in wellness and real estate.

“It’s about opening doors to ideas, whether or not that person pokes their head in or walks all the way through, it’s up to them. I never try to change people,” Feuling explained.

The book is timely with the explosion of internet businesses, which allow for

tremendous opportunity, said Feuling. And network marketing has always been around. “When you recommend that a friend reads a particular book or watches a certain movie, that’s network marketing, we just never get paid for it,” he said.

Feuling says he is trying to help people take a look at various possibilities that might be able to help generate extra income for them.

“So that you can release the financial belt a little bit more and remove some stress and maybe you won’t get divorced this year. It really comes down to things like this,” he said. “For me, this is my kind of Holy Grail of showing the way to answer the question, ‘How the heck do I get myself out of this mess?’”

The exhibition is free and open to the public from Mon. July 25, through Sun. Aug. 7, during regular gallery hours (Mon. through Sun., 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.).

The title of the exhibition refers to each artist’s unique vision, ranging from the abstract to the realistic, from black and white to intense color, and from high impact to quiet contemplation. But no matter what the stylistic differences, all the images in the show leave a lasting impression on the viewer. This is the fourth year these artists have exhibited together at the La Jolla Art Association Gallery.

An artists’ reception will be held at the gallery on Fri., July 29, from 5-8 p.m. For directions to the gallery, phone 858-459-1196.

RSFCC soiree De Vin on July 14 welcomes Terra Valentine

By Erin Leahey, Executive director RSF Community Center The Rancho Santa Fe Community Center is launching a series of monthly wine tasting events called Soiree de Vin, and our first public event will be held on Thursday, July 14, at a private residence and will feature wine from the private estate and winery Terra Valentine.

Terra Valentine, located on Spring Mountain in Napa Valley, takes winemaking to a new level. It brings together a state-ofthe-art fermentation system with the beauty of an artisan-constructed building-a colorful and well-hidden treasure of Spring Mountain history. Terra Valentine produces wines with mountain intensity and balance that express the character of the Spring Mountain appellation and vineyards. The vineyard’s management team oversees every aspect of farming from planting to harvest. You will have the opportunity to meet Rory Lynch, learn more about Terra Valentine and taste samplings of their wine, but only if you are a member of the Community Center, since being a member does have its perks!

Rancho Santa Fe Review

PRESIDENT continued from page 3 physicist and engineer.

The foundation supports scientific research in four key areas, according to Conn: neuroscience, or science of the brain and mind, viewed as the most complex; nanoscience, the science of the very small, at the level of atoms and molecules; astrophysics, cosmology and physics, the science of the very large, including study of the universe; and theoretical physics, which uses mathematical models to ex-

plain and predict natural phenomena.

At UCSD, where the foundation funded the Kavli Institute for Brain and Mind, $1.5 million in seed money over a five-year period has brought in $27 million in federal research grants, Conn said.

As the foundation works to enhance public appreciation and understanding of science, events such as the meeting with President Obama serve not only to honor the scientists, but the White House “is sending a signal about the importance of science.”

Eight scientists — including seven Americans — received Kavli Prizes last year. The prize winners are determined by the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, and the Kavli Foundation is not involved in the selection process, said Conn. Nominations for the 2012 prizes will be accepted this fall.

Conn commutes back and forth to Oxnard each week, and in spite of the demands of his job, which also take him across the country and abroad, he and his wife have no plans to move from their home.

“I just like the feel of the place,” said Conn, who can’t run because of a bad hip, but loves to walk his two dogs. “It’s one of the best places to live in the world.”

For more information about the Kavli Prize and the foundation, visit www. kavlifoundation.org.

LION continued from page 1 houser said. Mountain lions’ main food source is deer and coyotes. Eliminating plant species that attract deer help discourage mountain lions from coming into the area, according to Wellhouser.

Wellhouser advised residents to take precautions.

“Mountain lions are most active at night as well as dusk and dawn,” he said.

“Do not leave children outside unattended; don’t leave pet food or food that may attract animals outside. Do not leave animals outside unattended. Horses should be kept in stalls in the barn.

Be careful when walking/ jogging at dusk and dawn time periods. If you see a mountain lion make noise — lots of it. Yell, scream, and bang on something.

For example, pocket-sized air horns are a good way to do that.”

Letters to the Editor/Opinion

‘Our Greater San Diego Vision’ needs your voice

BY JENNIFER ADAMS-BROOKS VICE-CHAIR OF OUR GREATER SAN DIEGO VISION AND INCOMING CHAIR OF THE SAN DIEGO FOUNDATION BOARD Do you love calling the San Diego region home?

What is it that you love about living here? Our natural beauty, world-class universities and family-friendly communities might top your list. Now, consider what you don’t enjoy.

For many, what springs to mind is the high cost of living, traffic congestion and lack of higher paying jobs.

Despite how much you love it here today, change is coming.

Without long-range planning, the things you enjoy could get harder to come by while the things that you don’t like get worse.

Our region will grow by 40 percent over the next 40 years. We’ll need to create 500,000 higher paying jobs and find roughly 400,000 new homes if our next generations are going to be able to stay here and raise their families. That’s why a broad-based group of diverse community leaders has formed to support Our Greater San Diego Vision.

Through Our Greater San Diego Vision, an initiative facilitated by The San Diego Foundation, we can each do our part to protect and preserve what we love about San Diego for future generations.

Our Greater San Diego Vision will be developed by the people and for the people through an unprecedented public engagement process. It will create a shared vision and vital long-range plan for the next 50-plus years.

In the fall, you will have the opportunity to brainstorm ideas and suggest your priorities and solutions for the region’s future growth during a series of public workshops. Your input will determine options for our future growth.

These options will be presented to tens of thousands of residents to choose those that best reflect their values and priorities. The consensus will form a long-term vision to be published in the spring 2012 and to guide decisions impacting our region’s growth for the coming decades.

As one of the nearly 150 Vision Ambassadors representing all communities across our region, I’m asking you to get involved today by visiting www.ourgreatersandiegovision.org where you can learn more and connect with our process.

Scripps receives $7.9 million NIH Grant for novel root cause of heart attack research Researchers looking to find a root cause for heart attacks and coronary artery disease will now begin using a novel investigative approach that borders on science fiction as they work toward the holy grail of American medicine: preventing the nation’s No. 1 killer.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) last week awarded a $7.9 million grant to the Scripps Translational Science Institute (STSI) of San Diego and Sangamo BioSciences (NASDAQ: SGMO) of Richmond, Calif. to conduct the nation’s first-ever, heart-based “disease in a dish� research.

The study involves the use of induced pluripotent stem cells (non-embryonic stem cells created from mature cell types, such as skin cells) to recreate participants’ own heart arterylining cells in a dish, along with genome editing technology aimed at potentially directing certain cells away from a disease state.

a shortfall. “These service members are very young, they lack financial management skills and most end up out of money before the end of the month. One of the unintended consequences is that they borrow money through future paychecks and end up owing extraordinary amounts of money,” said Wilson. A relatively young volunteer force, many of them are deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq and are putting their lives on the line. “So we decided to do the best we could in addressing all of these issues,” Wilson explained.

Chuck Yash, a retired naval officer, is chairman of AFIG, a position he has held since 2007 when the group was formed by then RSF Foundation Board Chairman, Greg Hillgren. “We are four years into this and we have had some good success, said Yash, a former Naval Academy graduate who served three tours in Vietnam in the early 1970s, the last one being May 8, 1972, when U.S. troops bombed Haiphong Harbor.

Yash understands what many POWs went through when high-profile celebrities went to Hanoi and condemned the conflict. “To me that was traitorous activity.

But now we have an oppor-

tunity to help our returning veterans and to also help their families, because they are the ones who didn’t sign up for this, and they probably struggle the most,” he said.

In the formation of AFIG, an informal network, doors began to open as many members already had contacts with the military.

“Early on we established relationships with leadership in the Marine Corps, and we reached out to elected officials, particularly those working with armed services committees,” Yash said.

Large organizations such as Military Outreach Ministry, Veterans Village, and the USO, were already supportive of the military but there were thousands of grass roots level organizations offering support.

“But there was no cohesion,” said Wilson. “When we realized that there were all these people out there and they didn’t know each other it clarified our mission, that we needed to get to know who was doing the work in the region, connect with them, and in some cases make grants for them.”

Since the creation of AFIG, an informal sub group, The Endowment Leadership Group, has formed. It came about when 32 Navy Seals were invited to play golf with

donors who had each contributed $10,000 to an endowment fund set up through AFIG for the Navy Seal Foundation, making a total donation of $121,000 to help the families of fallen Seals. During that game of golf some were so touched by the Seals’ stories that they pledged to “lead by doing” and focus their efforts specifically to aid retired Seals transition into future careers.

In addition to grants and career counseling, AFIG provides volunteer opportunities, said programs manager Debbie Anderson. The upcoming Operation Stand Down, set for July 15-17 at Veterans Village in San Diego –which provides food, medical help, showers, clothing and more for local homeless vets – is one such opportunity. “We’ll be sending folks down there to help for that weekend,” said Anderson. “We also help out at Camp Pendleton at Concrete Beaches, a lunchtime activity for people in the School of Infantry.” At the end of rigorous training, barbecues are fired up, hot dogs are cooked and volunteers serve the food to the Marines.

the story of really how wonderful our faculty, students and staff are — and that’s what I intend to do.”

Cunningham replaces former dean, Gail Naughton, a scientist with more than 90 patents in tissue regeneration who resigned to focus on her own company, Histogen, Inc., which she founded in 2007.

His advice to young aspiring entrepreneurs: “Don’t rush into anything.

Have a plan. Do the research. Look at the opportunity costs. Find a mentor.

And make sure you take a calculated risk. There are

Of total funds collected through AFIG, which to date is $350,000, 100 percent goes to the military, including the Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Army, Navy and National Guard. “The value of the foundation’s role is that we know the organizations that are doing the work. The main message that we would like to get out to the community is the strength of this organization will be with its members.

The more people who join with us in this work, the more impact we can have because the need is great.

And we think this is a model that can be used in other communities where there is a strong military presence.”

In San Diego the military provides $27 billion in economic activity as a result of its presence, according to Yash. “Whether peacetime or wartime, the needs of these great patriots will always be there. It’s so important that we support these young service members and their families.”

“I ask my students, ‘What’s the purpose of business?’ And 90 percent of the class will say, to make money. And that’s not really the truth. The purpose of business is to serve the needs of society. Making money is just a by-product of that.”

Cunningham has a long record of charitable work and community service in New Jersey and San Diego. He still serves as a trustee at NYU.

Accomplished trainer looks forward to returning to her ‘favorite’ track

BY JULIE SARNO CONTRIBUTOR Trainer Jenine Sahadi looks forward to bringing her stable to Del Mar every summer. She will be bringing 14 horses this year and enjoys spending time at her home in Del Mar. “Del Mar is my favorite track,” said Sahadi, who spends most of her year at Los Angeles tracks. “I love being there with my family, my mother and my younger brother, Steve, who lives in Solana Beach with his family. It’s as close to a mini vacation as I get.”

How did Sahadi select training racehorses as a vocation? Sahadi grew up with horses as a central focus in her life. Her parents, Fred and Helen Sahadi, owned Cardiff Stud Farm in Creston, Calif. Her father founded Barretts, an equine sales company. After earning degrees in journalism and communications at the University of Southern California, Sahadi worked for seven years in the marketing and publicity departments at Hollywood Park.

In her late 20s, she de-

cided to become a trainer.

She worked for two years as assistant trainer to Julio Canani before taking out her trainer’s license in April 1993. She won with her first starter, La Sarcelle, on May 2 of that year.

Sahadi has accomplished many firsts in her career. She became the first female trainer to saddle the winner of a $1,000,000 race and a Breeders’ Cup race when she saddled the striking gray Lit de Justice to take the 1996 Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1) at Woodbine.

She saddled 16-1 Elmhurst to win the Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1) in 1997 at Hollywood Park, becoming the only female trainer to win two Breeders’ Cup races.

She won her third million dollar race in 2000 when she saddled The Deputy to win the Santa Anita Derby (G1), a key prep race for the Kentucky Derby. A few weeks later, Sahadi saddled the Irish-bred runner for the Derby, where he finished 14th. The Deputy was sent off at odds of $4.60 to one, the lowest odds ever for a Derby starter trained by a

train. Her best runner in 2010 was 6-year-old Gotta Have Her, winner of two Turf stakes races. She won the Palomar last summer at Del Mar and the Royal Heroine at Hollywood Park, both Grade 2 events. Gotta Have Her had a stellar season in 2009, winning eight of her nine starts and finishing a creditable second to colts in the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint. She is retired and in foal to standout sire, Medaglia d’Oro, who earned $5.7 million racing for the late Ed Gann of Rancho Santa Fe. A cause close to Sahadi’s heart is the Edwin J. Gregson Foundation which provides college scholarships to children of backstretch workers. Sahadi is heading up the Aug. 8 fundraiser at The Grand Del Mar, honoring the Oak Tree Racing Association which for years was headed by Dr. Jack Robbins, a Rancho Santa Fe resident. Del Mar Thoroughbred Club Chairman Joe Harper will emcee the event.

“Eddie and I were good friends,” said Sahadi, who has been president of the

Gregson Foundation since it was founded in 2000.

“When Eddie passed away a number of us wanted to do something in his memory.”

The Gregson Foundation typically gives out scholarships each year and has helped more than 250 students. Most students start at a community college and then transfer to a state school. Students submit an application, similar to a college application, which then is reviewed by board members of the Foundation. Students who receive scholarships are often the first members of their families to attend college.

Tickets to the fundraiser are $250 each and may be purchased by calling Angie Carmona at the California Thoroughbred Trainers’ offices at 626-447-2339. Sponsorship packages are also available at the $10,000 and $5,000 levels. For more information, go to the website, gregsonfoundation. com.

Seaside dining makes every meal feel like a vacation treat at Poseidon in Del Mar The patio overlooks the beach and ocean.

BY KELLEY CARLSON t Poseidon restaurant in Del Mar, guests are easily reminded of the Greek god of the seas, with ocean views from every seat and the scent of saltwater in the air.

“We try to bring the outside in,” said Tom Ranglas Jr., a partner in the family-owned business.

Upon entering the establishment, guests will catch sight of a screen depicting shoreline scenes behind the hostesses, as two swordfish “swim” overhead. A “beach rock” path leads the way to the seating areas, consisting of split-level dining, a bar and a patio. Bluegray, brown, beige and cream are the predominant colors of the decor, representing water and sand. Music by Latin guitarists plays softly in the background during the sunset hour on Fridays.

“It’s a charming, relaxed atmosphere,” Ranglas said. “You feel like you’re on vacation and transported to a different place.”

Both upper- and lower-level dining offer cushioned, U-shaped booths facing the Pacific, along with tables lining the windows.

The upper level features a sliding window that can separate it from the lower level in the event of a private party; the lower level has floor-to-ceiling windows that fully open, enabling the west wall to “disappear,” according to Ranglas.

A

Ceviche consists of shrimp marinated with lemon and lime juices, cilantro, onions, avocado and tomato.

Guests in the bar/lounge can sit at the glass-and-sand fireplace.

Menu Recipe

Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at delmartimes.net. Just click on ‘Food’ or ‘On The Menu.’

■ This week: Poseidon’s Halibut Tapenade Adjacent to the dining areas is the bar/lounge, where patrons can socialize, watch a sporting event on the TV, or sit around a glassand-sand fireplace.

For the full outdoor experience, head to the patio, the most popular seating area. Umbrellas shade the tables during the summer; a cover is overhead from October through June. There are also heat lamps for use when the weather is chilly.

Executive Chef Mourad Jamal advises guests who want to sit on the patio to come early. Sunset and high noon tend to be the busiest times; Tuesdays and Wednesdays are slower during daylight hours, but the pace picks up later with the start of the half-price wine bottle nights, Ranglas said.

Despite its location on the beach, Poseidon is not strictly a seafood establishment. Of course, there are entrees from the ocean such as Pistachio Crusted Sustainable Salmon and Wild

Alaskan Halibut. But Jamal also pointed out that there is food from the fields and farms, as well.

For example, there is “Free Range & Natural” Rosemary Chicken Breast, Tequila-Lime Tortellini, Kona Certified Angus Beef Aged Ribeye, Thai Stir Fry and Potato & Parmesan Gnocchi.

The simpler kids menu ranges from PB & J (peanut butter and jelly) sandwiches to Mini Burgers and Coconut Shrimp.

Guests of all ages can appreciate the desserts, which include indulgences such as Mud Pie, Granola Apple Dessert and Vanilla Creme Brulee.

Patrons who come for the weekend breakfasts can select from various types of egg dishes, pancakes, fresh fruit and other items.

For those who desire to enjoy Poseidon’s fare outside of the establishment, catering is available at events held at nearby Powerhouse Park.

Encinitas Classic Car Cruise Nights kicks off July 21 On Thursday, July 21, from 5:30-7:30 p.m., the Downtown Encinitas MainStreet Association (DEMA) will be celebrating the beginning of summer by kicking off the 13th Annual Encinitas Classic Car Cruise Nights, the first of four in the summer series.

This year’s series will be greatly expanded, starting with six dedicated lots for car clubs. Encinitas Foreign & Domestic is sponsoring the SMOG Test Only Awards Lot and Stellar Solar will be solar-powering the bands there throughout the series. Cardiff Classics will be hosting a car club and a band, and Charlie’s Foreign Car will be welcoming a club in their Regent Lot. Three other downtown Encinitas locations – the Small Mall, Sofspra and The Black Sheep —will host additional car clubs, and special “Recommended Parking for Classic Cars” signs will make added room for the many cars who park in available curbside spots.

In addition to doubling the available parking, DEMA is doubling the music venues, with one stage at each end of

town. Rob Mehl will be playing at the SMOG Test Only Awards Lot and Tower 7 will entertain the crowd at Cardiff Classics. The event is open and free to the public. Every car in attendance is eligible for awards and there is no cost for displaying or viewing the cars.

If historic Downtown Encinitas is not reason enough to enjoy a night out on the town, Encinitas Classic Car Night will up the ante. It is an excellent reason to spend a summer night out in a historic downtown with 40 great restaurants and over 200 unique shops.

Come early for the best parking spots because parking is limited, and dine at one of the many fantastic restaurants in Downtown Encinitas before the event “shifts into 5th gear.” The event will be held in Downtown Encinitas from D Street to K Street with live music at Cardiff Classics at 1049 S. Coast Hwy 101 and SMOG Test Only Center at 682 S. Coast Hwy 101.

Birch exhibit has ‘boundless energy’ The power of the majestic Pacific Ocean will set the stage for an exhibit about energy, opening Saturday, July 9 at Birch Aquarium on the outdoor Robert Smargon Court overlooking the sea.

“Boundless Energy,” is an interactive experience that explores how mankind can use natural forces to power its daily needs.

Sponsored in part by the Sempra Energy Foundation, the exhibition will showcase innovative ways to harness renewable energy from the sun, wind and ocean motion. It features educational elements that encourage learning through play.

Organizers say the exhibit will deepen visitors’ understanding of how renewable energy sources can produce clean electricity, the benefits and challenges of deriving energy from these sources, and the changes making such energy increasingly available in the marketplace.

Highlights include: learning about renewable energy sources to decide how to power the future; powering a mechanical fish with solar energy; comparing the latest wind turbine innovations; and creating green energy out of the blue at wave tanks and water tables. There will also be a play area for children, where activity drives a kinetic water sculpture.

“Boundless Energy” is an extension of “Feeling the Heat: The Climate Challenge,” the aquarium’s award-winning exhibit that presents the science of global climate change. Dedicated by former Vice President Al Gore in 2007, “Feeling the Heat” highlights Scripps’ half-century of leadership in studying climate change and educates about current and projected environmental changes caused by society’s over-use of fossil fuels.

“We want to show our visitors – especially children – the exciting future that awaits us all,” said Nigella Hillgarth, aquarium executive director. “Through human ingenuity, we can create a future in which clean power comes from renewable sources, a future that supports our quality of life and protects the health of people and our planet.”

San Diego actress returns to star in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Sleeping Beauty Wakesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at the Playhouse

BY DIANA SAENGER Contributor Musical theater actress Aspen Vincent, who grew up in Pacific Beach, has the lead in La Jolla Playhouseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleeping Beauty Wakes,â&#x20AC;? which runs July 19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Aug. 21 at the Mandell Weiss Theatre.

In her younger days, Vincent said she spent 10 years performing with Starlight Musical Theater, Christian Youth Theater (CYT) and Christian Community Theater (CCT) before attending Chapman University to study music. When job offers began enticing the singer in her third year, she said couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t refuse chasing her dream of a stage career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I never had any formal training, but CYT and CCT were a great starting place,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That organization is a huge part of why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a professional actress today.â&#x20AC;?

After college, Vincent took a role as the voice talent of Dodie Bishop in the three-time Emmynominated animated show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;As Told By Ginger.â&#x20AC;? Her stage credits include Broadwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Idiot,â&#x20AC;? the first national tour of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dirty Dancing,â&#x20AC;? regional productions of â&#x20AC;&#x153;West Side Story,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grease,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once Upon a Mattressâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Little Women.â&#x20AC;?

Vincent explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After the show closed, I moved to New York to pursue theater. Then I got a call that Meat Loafâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backup singer left, a week out from a world tour. I was cast and had four days to learn the entire three-hour-long concert.â&#x20AC;?

Vincent had just made her Broadway debut in â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Idiotâ&#x20AC;? when she was offered a part in Princetonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s McCarter Theatre â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleeping Beauty Wakes,â&#x20AC;? which

was transferring from Berkeley to New York. She said she found the score by composer Brendan Milburn and lyricist Valerie Vigoda (both of the acclaimed trio GrooveLily), cutting edge and groundbreaking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The company was looking for a belter, and someone older than 16, but who looked 16,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I missed performing every night, so I auditioned and got the role.

GrooveLily is not traditional musical theater. Once I heard them, I thought they were great musicians, but I was curious about how their folksy style would transfer to stage music; now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;m so impressed. Their instruments are very resonance driven, and Valerie plays the violin so beautifully.â&#x20AC;?

Returning to San Diego, especially to work at the La Jolla Playhouse, is very special for Vincent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Playhouse is the theater I went to when I was growing up and to be able to come back here after fulfilling my dreams to be a Broadway actress is humbling and an honor. This is where I slept outside waiting to get rush tickets! Seeing shows here inspired the career I wanted.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleeping Beauty Wakes,â&#x20AC;? is not to be confused with the documentary â&#x20AC;&#x153;Waking Sleeping Beauty.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a story, according to Vincent, that appeals across-generations. She said the message is to find the courage to be completely in the moment and living your life completely awake. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every character in this show is being held back, by a fear, neurosis, or lack of something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s keeping them from living fully. My character is literally asleep and not able to do anything, but then she

finds a way to break out of the prison sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been in for so long. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every other character finds a magical breakthrough in their lives and they realize they need to revaluate their relationships with a spouse or child, or need to be recommitted to their jobs. So often weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re held back by fear and get stuck in these patterns where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just been existing for years and not taking full advantage of the life that is so beautiful and precious, and the relationships around us, and not giving everything we can to them.â&#x20AC;?

While enjoying the highs of a Broadway performer, Vincent said she understands her career comes with lows as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m acquainted with the pain thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of this industry â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the insecurity of not knowing when your next job is coming; of not having a steady income and being flexible to play leading roles or wait tables.

When young people ask my advice, I tell them to only pursue this career if it will kill your soul to not do it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have no regrets, even if next year Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m waiting tables back in New York City. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m supposed to do and it brings me joy. I know I bring other people joy and I move people with what God has gifted me. For me, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think of a more blessed career.â&#x20AC;?

RSF Attack GU11 Pegasus Cup Champions — Awesome 3 peat!

Nate Hetherington’s RSF Attack G 99 Green girls earned the San Diego Pegasus Cup Championship title over the weekend of June 25. This is the team’s third consecutive year winning this title! The girls played very well throughout the weekend showing great spirit and intensity while working together as a team. Each player contributed to bringing home the championship and gave a solid team effort in the tournament, scoring 11 goals and only giving up 3. Congratulations girls for a great start to the season!

Tad McCardell, a 17-year-old Canyon Crest Academy senior (in the fall) was awarded the “2010 – 2011 National Scholastic Surfing Association (NSSA) Top Scholar of the Year” in Huntington Beach on July 3 at the culmination of the NSSA National Championship surfing competition. Tad, who completed his junior year with a 4.7 GPA, finished his competition year with a #10 ranking and qualified to surf in the Nationals event earlier in the week at Huntington Beach Pier. He participates in the Southwest division of the Explorer Junior series competing from September each year through June. The large and highly competitive series honors their academic performers and this year Tad was awarded their top National scholastic honor, which included Tad McCardell surfers from all ages and divisions: Southwest, Mid-Atlantic, Hawaii, Northwest, Northeast, Southeast/North, Southeast, and Gold Coast. Tad surfed the Nationals against 60 top qualifying surfers from all the divisions.

On the podium, in his acceptance speech, Tad gave a “shout out” to thank the longstanding NSSA organization (Janice Aragon and Gayline Clifford, directors for the past 34 years), his family and friends for their opportunities and support. He recognized his surfboard sponsor, Wave Hog (Larry Legroe), and local surf school Fulcrum Surf. Dan Mori, of Fulcrum Surf, has been his Canyon Crest Academy surf coach for several years. The CCA school team won 2nd place in the California state competition this year in the Scholastic Surfing Series (SSS). Tad made mention of his appreciation for Canyon Crest Academy’s excellent teachers and curriculum offerings, as well as his camaraderie with his local surfing buddies. Famous surfer Peter Townend and the Mayor of Huntington Beach were there to shake Tad’s hand.

Special character: CCA’s Rasmussen’s two-sport success story is strictly nonfiction

BY GIDEON RUBIN CONTRIBUTOR Carly Rasmussen, the budding author, believes creating characters her readers care about is the starting point in any of her witchcraft and wizards-themed short fiction works.

“I think a good story is defined by interesting characters, whether it’s a special talent or a certain character trait that allows them to overcome adversity,” said Rasmussen, an incoming Canyon Crest Academy sophomore who considers writing a hobby for now.

It turns out Rasmussen, the athlete, shares many of those same qualities.

Rasmussen’s will to win is the trait that enables the twosport star to excel in volleyball and swimming — two sports that typically don’t mix.

In her varsity swimming debut, Rasmussen won Valley League titles in the 100-yard butterfly and 200-yard individual medley. She placed sixth in the 100 butterfly in the San Diego Section Div. III finals, and swam on three Ravens relay teams, of which two placed third in the Div. III finals.

She is also one of the volleyball program’s most intriguing prospects. Although she didn’t start playing until she was 10, Rasmussen, who plays setter and right side, has proven herself to be a quick study. She was a junior varsity standout last season, and projects to be an impact varsity player this fall.

CCA volleyball coach Ariel Haas, who also teaches physiology, said athletes rarely compete in swimming and volleyball because the two sports rely on different types of muscle development, noting that swimming promotes long lean muscles that promote endurance. Successful volleyball players, he said, have shorter “fast-twitch” burst muscles that promote explosive movements. “(Swimming and volleyball) typically don’t blend very well with each other,” Haas said.

“My initial reaction was that she would have to pick one or the other, but she’s been able to be successful at both sports. It’s interesting and surprising that she can be successful at both at the same time.”

Rasmussen has been swimming since she was 3, but is a latecomer to volleyball. She went out for the sport at the prodding of her parents, both of whom played competitively.

Her father, Dean Rasmussen, played elite-level volley-

Carly Rasmussen ball for Team USA. Her mother, Deana Iwasaki, played Div. I volleyball at University of Pacific (Stockton).

“My parents basically forced me into it and I absolutely hated it the first few years, but I started playing in high school and it was actually really fun,” she said.

It was especially fun when her Coast Volleyball 15-andunder team placed seventh in a USA Volleyball national tournament in Atlanta last month.

The highlight of her swimming career was making the cut in several events at the USA Swimming 2010 Speedo

Western Regionals when she was 13.

“I was one of the younger swimmers at that event and I actually swam in the same pool as Kosuke Kitajima, who has the world record in several events, so that was really intense.” Rasmussen said.

Rasmussen believes she’s become a better volleyball player than she is a swimmer. She said she’d like to play both sports in college.

“I can’t choose,” she insists. “They’re very different. I love them both a lot.”

Rasmussen is among a crop of CCA newcomers who will be counted on to help the volleyball team maintain its winning tradition. The Ravens are coming off their most successful season, advancing to their first San Diego Section Div. III finals and placing third in the state tournament.

But they’ll have big shoes to fill after graduating standout Samantha Cash, who will play at Div. I Pepperdine next season.

In addition to her athleticism, Rasmussen brings court smarts and some intangibles, Haas said.

“I think she brings a hate-to-lose attitude because she’s been so successful in so many arenas,” Haas said. “She brings that mentality to everything she does, including volleyball, and that can be contagious.”

Rasmussen has also excelled in the classroom, maintaining a 4.0 GPA while balancing two sports and her writing hobby.

“She’s very hard-working, very bright and if not the best, one of the best at everything she does,” said Haas, who had Rasmussen in one of his classes last year.

And although there are physiological reasons for why few athletes are able to excel in both volleyball and swimming, Rasmussen sees hard work as the thread that connects the two sports. Her key to success?

“Being able to dedicate yourself to the sport, and actually loving what you do and good time management to balance both of them and school,” she said.

Which probably also explains her passion for creating Harry Potter-style witch and wizard characters in her writing.

“It’s always the characters that stick with me, not the details of the plot,” she said. “I guess I’m still just a little kid at heart. I’m still waiting for witches and wizards to appear.”

Rancho Santa Fe Review

La Jolla Fashion Film Festival to host worldwide debut showing of never-seen-before Andy Warhol portraits The best of the international fashion film art movement will be held in two screening programs will be held at the La Jolla Fashion Film festival from 7:30 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 9:30 p.m. on July 29 and 30 at the Museum of Contemporary Art La Jolla.

The La Jolla Fashion Film Festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (www.LJFFF.com) After Party venue at Barfly will be the scene of an unique event Friday night July 29 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the unveiling of never seen before portraits of Andy Warhol â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one of art worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most well known celebrities. The four portraits will start their journey in this world at the opening night Directorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Reception and then go downstairs the next day, Saturday, to Barflyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outside patio to be seen by everyone. Exact viewing times to be announced.

The celebrity photographer who took the images, Karen Bystedt, will be at the installation.

Karen Bystedt came to Hollywood after graduating from NYU Film school. In less than five years Bystedt had photographed

The Birds, the Bees, and Blended Families

everyone from Brad Pitt, to Josh Brolin, to Johnny Depp, Sandra Bullock, and Keanu Reeves just to name a few.

As a creative young photographer and freshman at NYU film school her encounter with Warhol at the Factory turned out to be a rare moment as Warhol found this young artist intriguing in her approach to Warhol himself. Bystedt said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seemed to strike a chord with Warhol when I asked to shoot him as a model.â&#x20AC;?

It is very rare for Warhol to have sat for anyone but he agreed to sit for Bystedt decked out in a suit and holding the American flag.

Decades later, these iconic portraits which were tucked away will now be revealed as a tribute to Warhol in a worldwide debut at the La Jolla Fashion Film Festival.

Stepmonster?

By Dr. Diana Weiss-Wisdom Dear Dr. Diana, My husband and I have been married for two years. My stepchildren are teenagers and my own children are in college. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have much of a relationship because they Dr. Diana Weiss-Wisdom donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see each other very often. So, now my kids are gone and I feel like an outsider in my own home.

They ignore me most of the time. I can tell that they are just tolerating me most of the time. They will say good night to my husband and give him a kiss and then walk past me without a word. A â&#x20AC;&#x153;good nightâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;sleep tightâ&#x20AC;? from me, goes unanswered.

My husband says I must not have heard them. But trust me, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have quiet voices.

Whatever I make for dinner is something that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like. At our house, they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eat chicken but they eat it all the time at their momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the broccoli the way that they like it, they want it more well done. I make it well done and they still wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eat it. They are constantly rejecting me. It gets depressing. They are always talking about their mom and laughing about stories from past times together when they were an intact family. At first I thought that they were sharing their life with me, but it really feels like they are doing it to leave me out.

My husband tells me to not let it bother me â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean anything by it.

He encourages me to keep trying and that eventually they will come around. As bad as it sounds, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even know if I want them to anymore. This has been such a painful experience. Will it ever get better? Or is this just the reality for stepmothers and stepfamilies? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Lonely in my new marriage Dear Lonely, These days people often sugarcoat the experience of being in a blended family. But it is difficult AND there are plenty of people who figure it out and have a happily ever after. Based on the research, the person who struggles the most is the stepmother. And the most significant factor in a stepmotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adjustment is her husband. Of course, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never up to just one person. The way you and your husband are there for each other will determine the quality of your relationship.

Your husband probably feels protective

of his kids and caught between you and them. And as a mother yourself, you can understand how no one likes anyone else to criticize their children.

So, the answers to your questions are â&#x20AC;&#x153;maybeâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;yes.â&#x20AC;? Stepfamilies can grow together but it almost always takes longer than people expect. Your step-kids behavior sounds fairly typical for new stepfamilies â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially with children ages 10-16. Often, kids tell stories of the past to relive fun memories and yes, sometimes to show the stepparent that he or she is an outsider. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s understandable that the message â&#x20AC;&#x153;we were all together long before you came alongâ&#x20AC;? doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel very good. Of course, Nor does it help to be told that your feelings donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make sense or not to let it bother you when you are already feeling marginalized.

While your union with your husband was a celebratory event for the two of you, it may not be so thrilling for his kids. It takes time to create new and shared family memories that will help to build your own history. In the meantime, it helps to have the support of your husband and good friends who understand the situation. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to be able to talk about negative feelings that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have at times, without feeling guilty for having them.

Your husband can help by showing the kids that: â&#x20AC;˘Your marriage is a priority for him; â&#x20AC;˘You and their dad are a team â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both of you discussing disagreements in private â&#x20AC;&#x201C;especially if it concerns the children; â&#x20AC;˘They must treat you with decency and respect; â&#x20AC;˘He loves and cherishes you and that you are here to stay.

Dr. He Said, She Said: Wife’s attitude oppresses husband

By Hanalei Vierra, Ph.D. and M’Lissa Trent, Ph.D. I am a stay-at-home dad, which means that I take our two kids back and Hanalei Vierra, Ph.D. forth to school, (Dr. He) and M’Lissa clean the Trent, Ph.D. (Dr. She) house, do the laundry, pay the bills, and make the social calendar for us all. My wife is the bread winner. She works for a large corporation, has a graduate degree in economics, and busts her butt to make a decent living for us. A long time ago I had to make a decision that I could live with this arrangement between us. We’ve been married for 17 years, and for the most part it seems to have worked for us. There is, however, one area that I am fed up with that drives me crazy. My wife likes to treat me like I am not a very smart person. I never finished college and, as a result, she seems to think that her opinion should have more weight than mine in our relationship.

What’s worse is that she has always treated me this way in front of our kids, who now jump on the bandwagon with her to discount my opinions when they hear something from me they don’t like. This feels unhealthy to me, but she says I am being a cry-baby about it. What do you think?

Warren Dr. He Dear Warren, The first question that comes to my mind is, “What took this guy so long to grow a pair and finally speak up?” Your willingness (read: lack of self-respect) to put up with this kind of treatment from your wife says more about you, Warren, than about her. The economic division of labor “role reversal” in your marriage is not uncommon these days, but if—as a result of this arrangement—what also came was the expectation that your opinions and needs are not as important as hers, then this is what I feel a need to comment on. You say that she “likes” to treat you as if you were not very smart, but I would bet that she does it because she knows now that she can get away with it as a way to hold more power in the relationship than you. Again, rather than try to wonder what that is about her personality, I wonder what it is about you that has put up with this kind of treatment

for so long. When you made your decision long ago to live with this “arrangement”, did you realize that in effect you agreed to check your manhood at the door? Is it unhealthy for your wife to put you down if front of your kids? Absolutely. But waiting 17 years to do or say something about this lack of respect in your marriage sounds pretty unhealthy as well, Warren.

Until you present yourself to your wife as the adult man you are who has opinions, thoughts, and feelings that are just as valid and important as hers, she has no reason to show you respect. Remember, respect is never owed. It needs to be earned. Not having either a job or a college degree in no way justifies disrespectful treatment from a spouse. You, however, need to figure out why you lack the gumption to sit down with your wife and paint her a very clear picture of how unacceptable it is for you that she treats you this way—whether or not it is in front of the kids. Talk to a qualified professional to help you figure out why you made this kind of a deal with your wife in the first place, so that you don’t ever do it to yourself again. Best of luck, Warren.

Dr. She Dear Warren: I think Dr. He has painted a good picture of your part in this muddle. I would add that you and your wife need to get extremely honest with each other about this problematic arrangement. She is obviously not okay with being the breadwinner, even if she says she is. If she was okay with the roles as they have been, she would not be pulling the power card on you, nor would she have such disrespect for you that she would degrade you in front of your own children. She must be extremely angry to allow the children to join in on discrediting you. What is most concerning is that the dynamic between the two of you is teaching your children that they cannot count on a man—that a man’s opinion is irrelevant— and that emasculating a man is okay. If you have a son, his self-identity as a man is in jeopardy. If you have a daughter, her respect for men is being compromised. I can’t imagine that your wife would continue with her behavior if she was really aware of what she was teaching her children. I can’t imagine that you would allow it to continue if you really understood the subconscious message you were sending to yourself, your wife and your kids.

Please get into therapy and get to the bottom of your wife’s anger and to the bot-

tom of your own lack of self-worth that put you in a position to allow this to go on in your home for so long. You have an imbalanced relationship, and you need to change that for your own sake and for the sake of your relationship with your wife and your children. All the best to you, Warren.

Ultra-endurance athlete wins Spartan Death Race–again

BY KAREN BILLING Staff Writer For the second year in a row, Joe Decker crawled, hauled, suffered, survived and ultimately bested “The Spartan Death Race.”

Decker, who runs the popular Gut Check Fitness boot camp at several local parks, recently completed the Vermont race in 39 grueling hours — about 11 hours longer than it took him the first time he won the event in 2010.

The race, which started June 25, involved obstacles such as eight hours of chopping wood, 10 miles running through an ice-cold river, 30 miles hiking up a mountain with a 70- pound backpack, and crawling through barbwire.

“All kinds of nonsense.

Luckily there was no eating bad stuff this year,” said Decker, referencing last year’s race in which he had to eat 10 pounds of onions.

Decker ran the race with a team from San Diego, including Roger Bernstein,

Spartan Death Race winner Joe Decker Vu Tran, Gentry Marks and Jeff Bales, a teacher at Ocean Air School. The group trained for nine months in preparation for the unpredictable, physically and mentally demanding race.

Very few of the 150 en-

trants are able to complete the race, where the goal is to get people to drop out. Tran was able to finish the race about five hours after Decker, and Bales and Bernstein lasted 28 hours.

“Overall, they did a re-

ally good job and I’m very proud of them,” Decker said.

There is always an EastWest Coast rivalry, with the East Coasters calling Decker’s team “California Girls.”

“Someone from California won it for the second

year in a row so apparently we’re doing something right out here,” Decker said.

Decker said the hardest part of Death Race 2011 was coming down the “substantial mountain” and hiking up a stream for two to three miles on a straight vertical— even through a waterfall.

Running through acres of blackberry briars was also brutal and he has the cut-up ankles and calves to prove it.

“I’m in so much pain,” Decker said in an interview on June 30. “I have bloody marks all over.”

Despite an aching back and thighs that were virtually “filleted” by the axe used to chop logs, Decker expected to be back working out

by Monday, July 4.

“I’ll take the weekend off and start again,” said Decker. “I enjoy [working out], it’s my life. It keeps me balanced, it keeps me sane.”

Death Race, he admits, is a little bit insane. Insane but fun. He’s not quite sure if he will sign up again for 2012 but he won’t rule it

out. He’s got a title to defend and a three-peat is a definite possibility.

In 2000, Decker broke the Guinness World Record’s “Twenty-Four-Hour Physical Fitness Challenge” to help inspire and motivate people to get fit. In addition to breaking the world fitness record, Decker has competed in many of the world’s most challenging endurance and adventure fitness events.

After serving three years in the Army with the 10th Mountain Division, Decker graduated from Western Illinois University with a B.S. degree in exercise science.

Decker has appeared on The Today Show, Discovery Health, The Early Show, The O’Reilly Factor, and Fox News, and has been featured in numerous national publications.

Decker’s Gut Check Fitness Boot Camps are held six days a week at parks in the Carmel Valley area.

Accomplished photographer’s July 16 show to feature iconic actress Ginger Rogers

BY DIANE Y. WELCH CONTRIBUTOR One of Helen MontgomeryDrysdale’s favorite quips, is, “I don’t believe in color — it’s distracting.” The veteran photographer has steadfastly adhered to this artistic preference, shooting in high contrast black and white, and won’t even consider digital photography. The quality doesn’t compare, she said.

Now the public may enjoy a rare exhibition of MontgomeryDrysdale’s fine art photographs on display at the courtyard gallery ARTISTSPACE, located in the Herb Turner-designed, Southfair, on Jimmy Durante Boulevard in Del Mar. The subject of the show is the iconic actress Ginger Rogers, and her mother Lela.

A free opening reception is planned for 6 - 9 p.m. on Saturday, July 16, which is the 100th anniversary of Rogers’ birth. Rachel Turner Thomas, director of ARTISTSPACE, facilitated the show.

Montgomery-Drysdale said the exhibition serves as a loving “memorial” to the movie legend who is most famed for her dancing roles with Fred Astaire and who won an Academy Award for her leading role in the movie “Kitty Foyle” in 1940. In 1945 she was

Hollywood’s highest paid star and, surprisingly, in 1936 was commissioned as the only woman admiral of the Texas Navy, according to the official Ginger Rogers website. But that is not surprising to Montgomery-Drysdale, who said that both Rogers and her mother were fiercely patriotic.

Rogers testified against the famed “Hollywood 10” screenwriters, who during the McCarthy witch hunt of the 1950s, refused to answer questions when called to testify before Congressional hearings into Communist involvement in the film industry. Rogers believed them Communists and risked her movie star career when

she testified. When World War I began, Lela was one of the first 10 women to enlist in the U.S Marine Corps. A journalist, she served as editor of the Marine’s “Leatherneck” publication.

Ginger Rogers found work on the stage after those hearings and became Montgomery-Drysdale’s first major public relations client in 1963 when Montgomery-Drysdale served as director of public relations for the La Jolla Playhouse where the two were introduced. A phone call from Rogers suggested they meet at La Valencia Hotel where she was staying during her run at the playhouse. Rogers’ mother was also there. “She insisted that I call her Aunty Lela,” recalled Montgomery-Drysdale fondly. “She considered me her ‘other daughter’.”

The friendship, both professional and social, stood the test of time. And Montgomery-Drysdale had the privilege to enter the inner world of the two Rogers ladies’ lives. She was invited to photograph the Rogers’ 1,000-acre ranch in Jackson County, Oregon, located along the Rogue River. A working farm, it supplied dairy products to nearby Camp White, a military station established for the duration of World War II. She also

OBITUARIES

Ginger Rogers PHOTO: HELEN MONTGOMERY-DRYSDALE

took shots in their Beverly Hills home and was privileged to photograph Rogers’ bedroom suite where her Oscar trophy was displayed on the fireplace.

Montgomery-Drysdale was introduced to photography 50 years ago. She was hired as an assistant to two Italian photographers based in New York . “I was an English and art major and was initially hired to write captions for them. I knew the difference between nouns and adjectives,” she joked.

But the valuable connections made while working in this capacity led Montgomery-Drysdale to learn the craft of portrait photography.

She has photographed other movie icons, including Vincent Price, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Burt Lancaster, Morgan Fairchild, Perry Como, Carol Channing and many more.

Montgomery-Drysdale came to Del Mar more than 30 years ago. She lives there with her cousin Dayna Carroll. The two are firm collaborators and share a favorite subject: Louis Armstrong. Carroll, a vocalist, was once coached by the iconic jazz performer, who would later be captured on camera by Montgomery-Drysdale. “What a wonderful gentleman he was,” Carroll said. A photograph on the wall of their living room shows Armstrong at one of his birthday celebrations held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.

Signed photographic prints will be for sale at the exhibition.

Sizes range from 16” x 24” up to about “20 x 30.” Visit www.hmdfoto.net to see more. The free, catered, opening reception is planned at Southfair (2010 Jimmy Durante Blvd.), from 6 - 9 p.m., on Saturday, July 16. Helen and Dayna will also be available to give private tours and retell the stories of the works, for those unable to attend the reception. Call (858) 755 6923 to set up an appointment.

Is it just calories that count?

BY PEGGY KORODY, RD, CLT I’ve been noticing lately the fast food industry is trying to entice customers by giving the impression that their product is a healthy choice because it has less than 500 Peggy Korody, RD, CLT calories. Does this make it healthy? Does using sea salt vs. regular salt make it healthy? Should I be looking at the fat grams? From my questions you can see that it’s more than just calories if you want to eat healthy. Here are a few examples and how I look at the ads.

I’m sure you have been hearing on the radio or seeing on TV the Carl’s Jr.® turkey burger ad. There’s the skinny model from Turkey, eating a turkey burger, with a bathing suit with little turkey burgers on it – cute. Well, I like turkey burgers and I usually make my own, but I thought I would check out their website and look at the nutritional information. Yes, they are less than 500 calories in these burgers, in fact there are three different turkey burgers to choose from and the calorie range is 470 – 490.

Now the disappointing part, 500 calories of something not healthy, is still 500 calories of something not healthy. If you are over 50 years of age, have hypertension, or are a black American, which is approximately 50% of the population, your sodium intake on a daily basis should be 1500 mg per day.

The other 50% of the population should aim for no more than 2300 mg per day. So let’s look at the turkey burgers, both the Teriyaki and guacamole turkey burgers have 1120 mg of sodium and the basic turkey burger has 1010 mgs. Now add a small fry, which has 310 calories and 610 mg of sodium. If you are part of the 1500 mg group then you have just exceeded your daily in-

take with one meal!

Then I saw a commercial from Subway, do you remember Jared? He actually lost weight by eating Subway, 6grams of fat sandwiches. Oh, don’t forget he walked to the restaurant and back home afterwards, so he did include exercise. It was great to hear he skipped the drive-thru. Recently, Subway announced they will decrease by 28 percent the sodium in the “Fresh Fit” line, which has 8 subs less than 8 grams of fat. This is a great start.

Have you seen the “Eat this, Not that” books? Once again they focus on the calorie count and not the whole picture. My point here is that it’s not just the calories, the fat and sodium grams are just as important for a healthy life. Also, if you are a diabetic, the carbohydrate grams will be of importance.

Sea salt vs. table salt is one healthier than the other? No, they are both salt. The theory is since sea salt has a stronger flavor you can use less. Well, I don’t want to pick on Carl’s Jr.® but their small “natural cut” French fries with sea salt has 610 grams of sodium, compared to a small order of the “world famous” McDonald’s fries which has 230 calories and 160 mg of sodium!

A few of the reasons why it’s important to lower our sodium consumption include: diets high in sodium lead to high blood pressure, which is the leading risk for heart attacks and strokes. This leads to roughly 800,000 deaths a year and cost Americans billions in health care costs. With all of these statistics it’s still amazing that most Americans still eat two times more sodium than recommended.

If you go out to eat often, more than four to five days per week, then you really need to look at the whole picture of what you are ordering. A product being less than 500 calories per serving is not always the best choice. Remember, eat well, eat smart, and be healthy!

Children learn that healthy eating can be fun and enjoyable through creative cooking camps

BY DIANE Y. WELCH CONTRIBUTOR The Harper Branch of the Boys and Girls Clubs of San Dieguito in Solana Beach is in full swing with its weekly Healthy Cooking Camp for kids. Using the facility’s Center for a Healthy Lifestyle, which opened on Earth Day 2009, camp director Amanda Curry has designed some exciting and creative culinary camps.

Already underway is Cooking Camp Route 66.

Campers take a virtual transcontinental journey from Los Angeles to Chicago along the famed Route 66 and learn some geography and history along the way.

Connected with each city visited on their “road trip” is a healthy nutritious menu of regional recipes that the kids make themselves and eat at camp.

Foods such as Wigwam Muffins, Arizona Sunrise Smoothies , Sweet Cadillac Chili, and Honest Abe’s Gingerbread Frozen Yogurt are some of the recipes that the kids try.

Campers keep daily journals, learn about kitchen safety, hygiene and nutrition, do arts and crafts, and

Young chefs at work outdoor activities when not in the kitchen. And at the end of the week they have their own recipe book. It’s all about creating an awareness that healthy eating is good for kids.

Pizza is a favorite recipe, said Curry, with the kids making the dough from scratch and then adding fresh herbs such as oregano and basil and fresh spinach straight from the garden.

“When the kids actually pick the foods they absolutely will 100 percent eat it.

It’s amazing to watch it happen. When healthy foods

are just presented on a plate 10 percent of the time they’ll eat it. But if they pick and cook it themselves, they will eat it,” Curry stressed.

The organic garden, designed by landscape architect and Solana Beach resident Katie Pelisek, is a big part of the program. “It was my dream to take the kids out into the garden and have them harvest it and that is now coming true,” said Curry. Carolyn Perkins and Shawn Studer, owner of Instant Organic Gardens who provides worm castings and professional advice,

Expert Advice...

each help keep the garden healthy and productive, Curry said.

For the past year Curry has led healthy cooking classes with both the general public and the Boys and Girls Club afterschool program. Jimbo’s has been a major sponsor and provides all of the food that is not grown in the garden, free of charge, to anyone who wants to take the cooking class.

Curry’s talent for engaging kids in healthy eating is a simple one. “The key to my philosophy with kids and cooking is that healthy food is fun. When you eat healthy you feel good and when you feel good that’s fun. And when you feel good you are able to do whatever you want to do when you’re a kid — run faster, jump higher, that’s the pinnacle of having a great life.”

She aims to educate kids that healthy food is not the drag that most people make it out to be. “Junk food is the drag!” she said.

In line with her mission to educate kids about nutrition, Curry, until recently, produced a kids cooking

show on Cox Community television, which she plans to revisit. Called the “Good Food Factory,” Curry would like to eventually film the show out of the Center for Healthy Lifestyle. “Filming what we are doing in the garden and in the kitchen, so that we can bring it to a wider audience in San Diego,” she said.

Upcoming themes for the next camps include an introduction to international cuisine and cultures through “Rock Star: World Tour,” July 18-22 and July 25-29; and learning about meals from bygone eras in “Past, Present and Future,” from August 8-12 and August 22-26. Visit www.positiveplacesd.org to find out more about the week-long camps or call 858 755-9371. Kids should be members (but it is free to join).

TEER CAMPSâ&#x20AC;Ś Youth volunteer campers and teen leaders were all smiles at La Colonia Community Center, as Kids Korps commenced another summer of Youth Volunteer Camps. An enthusiastic group of campers and counselors, ranging from ages 6 to 18, teamed up in the spirit of giving to demonstrate their support for the San Diego community.

Kids Korps youth were engaged in a fun-filled week of service, learning the values of volunteerism, compassion, and leadership, and the significance of helping others. The team participated in various environmental and service-enriched activities presented by Starbucks, including a SmART Meter recycling project presented by SDG&E, reading to children at a Head Start Preschool, learning from Pawsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;itive Teams how therapy dogs can assist others, playing Bocce Ball with our friends at the Blind Community Center, creating pet toys for animals at the Humane Society, preparing fresh produce for distribution at the San Diego Food Bank, making blankets and lunch boxes for children from low-income families, and partaking in a local beach cleanup in conjunction with San Diego Coastkeeper.

Undoubtedly, this team of youth has benefitted immensely from these philan-

thropic experiences; through direct interaction with the surrounding community, they have learned how to be compassionate and benevolent leaders, while also understanding how to work responsibly with their peers.

I personally had the opportunity to spend a week with these wonderful volunteers, witnessing their altruism first-hand. What first struck me was how well each teen counselor worked with their campers, together pouring their hearts and thoughtful energy into each of the activities. The counselorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; idol status was ever prevalent in the eyes of their young followers. Yet, what impressed me the most was the level of incentive these children possessed to serve their community, especially at such a young age. Franco, a camper not but 6 years of age, seemed to be one of the most enthused out of the bunch. During final circle time, he made a point of sharing with the entire camp that â&#x20AC;&#x153;caringâ&#x20AC;? was the most important life lesson to be absorbed from the week. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incredible how much knowledge and compassion these youth have; perhaps itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time we adults take after them.

Instilling these values at an early age suggests a bright future not only for these kids, but also for the city of San Diego. The leaders behind Kids Korps USA are constantly striving to create these opportunities for children, dedicating their time and thoughtfulness to continue 16 years of â&#x20AC;&#x153;instilling in Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youth the spirit of giving while providing valuable education in leadership and responsibility.â&#x20AC;? Kids Korps eagerly anticipates the approaching Volunteer Camp from July 1822 at the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center (to sign up, call 858-756-2461), amongst other upcoming summer endeavors.

The 12U gold all-star team of the North Shore Girls Softball League knows how to win when it really counts. North Shore took third place in the North County Girls Softball District Championship, June 24-26, earning the team a qualifying birth in the State Championship in Lancaster, Calif., July 8-10.

North Shore began the District Tournament with a 15-1 win over Poway, but then had to face a tough Penasquitos team, losing 8-4. With double-elimination in play, one more loss would have meant the end of the tournament and the end of the season for the team.

“We had a tough schedule at Districts,” said North Shore manager Kent Zapata. “We played seven games during the weekend, while other teams in our division played only four.

We didn’t let it get us down; instead it made the girls more focused.”

Next, North Shore took on Mira Mesa. With a strong defense and pitching, North Shore quickly took a six-run lead to win the game 9-3. The team’s pitchers included Lauren Scheg, Mikaila Reyes, Maddie Ley, and Courtney Kim. Needing two more wins to stay alive in the tournament, North Shore played Rancho Bernardo. Once again, North Shore jumped out to a quick lead thanks to Kennedy Kidd’s grand-slam home run, winning the game 8-0.

“Kennedy is our power hitter,” said Zapata. “When the ball was launched off her bat, there was not doubt it was over the fence.”

In the qualifying round, North Shore faced Carlsbad. Both teams played their best, but by the bottom of the fourth inning North Shore had a 2-1 lead. With North Shore at bat in the bottom of the fifth inning and bases loaded again, Kidd hit another spectacular grandslam home run, winning the game 8-2 and securing North Shore’s spot at States.

“For Kennedy to hit two grand slams in consecutive games is truly amazing,” said Zapata. “All weekend she told me how badly she wanted to go to States, and she proved it.”

After qualifying, North Shore still had to play one more game to finish the tournament.

Once again, they faced Penasquitos. This time, they were victorious with a 4-3 win to finish in third place.

“Districts was truly a team effort, with every player on the team contributing,” said Zapata. “Our girls are fired up for States.”
