BY CITY NEWS SERVICE A 19-year-old San Diego man arrested on suspicion of felony hitand-run in connection with the death of a cyclist in Rancho Santa Fe was scheduled to make his first court appearance earlier this week (after presstime for this newspaper).

Jin Hyuk Byun was arrested Sunday night, July 8, in connection with the death last Friday, July 6, of 18-year-old Angel Bojorquez of Escondido, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Chris Parent. He was scheduled to be arraigned July 11 at the Vista Courthouse.

Bojorquez, an Albertsons grocery store clerk, was found dead in shrubbery alongside a winding stretch of Via De La Valle around 2 a.m. Friday, July 6, the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office reported, noting he was struck while riding his mountain bike home from work in Del Mar. Investigators determined Bojorquez was traveling northbound south of Paseo Delicias when a northbound motorist drifted onto the right shoulder and struck him

Bicycle Coalition promotes safety

BY SHELLI DEROBERTIS The death of two bicyclists in San Diego County last week have focused police and community concern on the dangers of motorists and cyclists sharing the same busy roads.

Tragically, a hit-and-run accident on July 6 caused the death of 18-year-old Angel Bojorquez of Escondido, who was bicycling home from his job at Albertsons in Del Mar (see story at left).

Theodore Jones, 56, of San Diego, died on July 8 after striking a vehicle while riding his bike at the on Solola Avenue on July 3.

Superintendent contract renewed

RSF Middle School enrollment up

BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe School District board approved a new four-year contract for Superintendent Lindy Delaney at its July 5 meeting.

“You’ve been sentenced to another four years,” joked Todd Frank.

“With pleasure,” Delaney said.

Delaney will receive an annual salary of $181,012, representing no increase

BY KAREN BILLING R. Roger Rowe School is seeing its biggest increase in enrollment for the 201213 school year in its middle school classes, according to Superintendent Lindy Delaney.

There are four new eighth grade students enrolled with two registration packets out and seventh grade has two new students with four registration packets out. Middle school is

over the 2008-09 school year due to the state’s financial crisis. The superintendent also receives an automobile allowance of $400 a month and a $200 per month cell phone allowance.

The RSF School District consists of one elementary school and one middle school, both located at R. Roger Rowe School.

Neighboring Del Mar Union School District,

which has eight elementary schools located at eight locations in the district, recently approved the contract for its new superintendent, Dr. Holly McClurg.

McClurg will receive an annual salary of $158,500, with a doctoral stipend of $2,500, an automobile allowance of $400 a month and a retirement contribution of $700 per month.

now at an enrollment of 108 seventh graders and 80 eighth graders.

So far 23 kindergartners are enrolled with 21 registration packets out, so Delaney said by August they will make a decision on having two or three kindergarten classes.

First grade has 52 students with one registration packet out. Second grade has 61 students enrolled with two registration pack-

ets out and third grade has 63 students.

Delaney said they will watch the second and third grade situation carefully to decide if there is a need for combination classes.

There are 75 fourth graders, 81 fifth graders and 89 sixth graders with two registration packets out.

The school hopes to keep its classroom ratios at 20:1.

Buzz: ‘Looking forward’ BY ROXANA FOXX, RSF ASSOCIATION BOARD PRESIDENT As the newly elected RSF Asso- Roxana Foxx ciation Board President this year, I am looking forward to a very productive year. With the addition of Rochelle Putnam and Craig McAllister to the board, I feel we have a very balanced board that will fairly represent our entire membership.

As president, one of my first goals will be to complete the work of the Community Awareness Committee and improve the lines of communication with our members as well as individuals looking to learn more about the Covenant. The first step in that process is the development of an updated website for the Association with links to all Covenant organizations and groups that want to participate. The new site will provide a one-stop source of information on the Association and community activities.

For those of us who are actively involved in the community, we take for granted many of the amenities that the Covenant has to offer, not realizing that many of our members are unaware of the opportunities that are available to them. I frequently run into Covenant residents who are not aware that the dining facilities at the Golf Club are open to all Association members at no additional cost. Every member is automatically signed up with your Association membership. All you have to provide to the club is your member number and you are all set. My husband and I had dinner there last week and it was one of the best dining experiences we have had in the Ranch in years.

In addition to improving community awareness we are also working on developing and improving broadband coverage for the entire community. The lack of access to electronic communication resources has a significant impact on many of our members. It is a concern that we are well aware of and need to research options and hopefully find a solution. We have also been

evaluating ways to protect our rural environment through the efforts of the Committee on the Natural Environment. The committee is studying the availability of alternative water sources, different types of drought-tolerant plants and ways to address the significant number of dead eucalyptus in the community.

The board will be holding our annual retreat in early August to take a look at all of the issues and ideas that will impact our community and to formalize our goals and objectives and set priorities for the year. I am excited about the opportunities for enhancing our community this year and to bringing closure to some ongoing projects.

Finally, I want to personally thank Dick Doughty and Jack Queen for their time on the board and their commitment to our community. I feel confident that we will continue to see Dick at future board meetings and I know we will all run into to Jack in the Village area as he continues to support our local merchants.

Art Jury mediation process working, RSF Association board told in report

BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe Association board received a report on the Art Jury’s mediation process for project appeals at its July 5 meeting, learning that the process is quite successful. Since 2000, the Art Jury has had 160 mediations on appeals to Art Jury decisions and only three of them have made it to the board level. There were only two mediations last year.

Applicants have the ability to appeal an Art Jury decision within 30 days, but they first must go through the mediation step and then the Art Jury has been able to resolve many of the issues, said Robert Green, RSF Association building commissioner.

The five-member Art Jury is responsible for upholding the Covenant and regulatory codes and is an organization that has been in place since 1928. It is an advisory committee to the RSF Association board for resi-

dential and commercial projects, subdivisions and commercial signs, seeking to maintain an “artistic quality” desired in the Ranch as outlined by the Covenant.

“The Covenant is extremely comprehensive, extremely advanced in its structure and leaves flexibility and judgment to a democratic process,” said Green. “It’s a great document.”

The Art Jury application process is kept “pretty tight,” according to Green, noting that once an application is complete it is guaranteed to be on the agenda of one of the Art Jury’s twice monthly meetings. The process is loaded at the beginning to give every detail an airing.

The addition of story poles about six years ago has become a very helpful tool for the Art Jury and the applicant, Green said.

The poles allow people to physically see See ART JURY, page 20

Three seats on RSF School board up for election in November Burdge says he plans to run for a third term Three RSF School board seats (out of five) will be up for election in the Nov. 6 election.

The seats currently occupied by Richard Burdge, Jim Depolo and Tyler Seltzer will be available.

Burdge said that he plans to run for a third term on the school board.

“I am running for a third term to offer the community continuity of the school board’s actions and policies,” Burdge said via email. “Jim Depolo is undecided at this point if he will run again or not, and Tyler Seltzer, who I endorse as a candidate, will be running for his first term after being appointed last year in a vacancy.”

The candidate filing period for county school districts and special districts (fire, water, community planning, etc.) is July 16-Aug. 10.

Del Mar’s 75th racing season features new and popular traditional events

BY KELLEY CARLSON A local gem is celebrating its diamond anniversary this summer.

The Del Mar racetrack is 75 years old, and it is marking the occasion with plenty of events, new and old.

The season kicks off with Opening Day on July 18, and live racing will be held an average of five days a week — Wednesdays through Sundays, plus a Labor Day card — through Sept. 5. More than 40 stakes races valued at $7.775 million are slated during the 37-day meet, including seven Grade I events and two new races for 2-year-olds.

The track’s signature race, the $1 million TVG Pacific Classic, is set for Aug. 26.

The event may draw the winners of the last three editions: Trainer Bob Baffert said on July 7 that he is planning to run two-time victor Richard’s Kid (200910); last year’s winner, Acclamation — who was also the nation’s champion older horse of 2011 — is another possible entrant.

Del Mar will hold its 75th Anniversary Celebration just several days into the season, on July 21. Each person who enters the admission gates that day will

Once inside, from 1 to 3 p.m. in the Plaza de Mexico, guests can buy a signed copy of “Del Mar at 75,” a 192-page book by photographer Barry Myers and writer Jay Privman that details a “day in the life” at the track and includes black-andwhite photos from the seaside oval’s early days. In

honor of track founder Bing Crosby, a look-alike will perform “Where the Turf Meets the Surf” in the winner’s circle after the seventh race. Finally, film clips of the great races at Del Mar over the years will be shown on the big screens.

“It will be a wonderful day,” said Craig Dado, senior vice president of marketing, in an interview.

To further commemorate the anniversary, a fullsize blanket with the special logo that’s “perfect for the beach or a picnic” will be given away with paid admission on Aug. 11, Dado said.

Additional giveaways planned during the season include a fleece pullover on Pacific Classic Day and a Webkinz Plush Horse on July 29.

Another new event for 2012 is the “race-ready” horse sale at approximately 6:30 p.m. July 22. As of July 5, 44 horses were scheduled to enter the “auction ring” — aka paddock — including 2011 Illinois Derby (Grade III) winner Joe Vann; Vanity Handicap (Grade I) thirdplace finisher Zafeen’s Pearl; and Mega Dream, who narrowly missed winning the Royal Heroine Mile Stakes (Grade IIT) at Betfair Holly-

Many of the sale horses will be immediately eligible for Del Mar’s “Ship and Win” program, which is in its second year. The program awards incentives to owners

of out-of-state horses who start at the track.

“This was such a winner for us last year, we knew we had to bring it back again this season,” said Tom Robbins, Del Mar Thoroughbred Club’s executive vice president for racing, in a news release. “We wrote those

checks to 107 horses all told, and it helped turn the tide for us on field size. We brought some new horses and horsemen to the state and gave encouragement to our local horsemen to pursue runners from other venSee RACING, Page 22

Rancho Santa Fe Review

RSF resident’s ‘Jockey for a Cause’ benefit to raise funds for former riders in need

BY KELLEY CARLSON A racehorse owner is bringing one of the sport’s behind-the-scenes issues into the spotlight.

Rancho Santa Fe resident Jeff DeHaven will host the first “Jockey for a Cause� on July 18 at his home to help raise money for The Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund and The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation. “There are some 2,000 jockeys in the United States, and they have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world,� DeHaven said. “Many of them have to work without adequate health insurance, life insurance or retirement funds, which puts a severe hardship on them and their families. I want this event to help make their lives easier.�

He noted that the charities he is supporting are currently helping 56 riders, the majority of them in wheelchairs and some permanently disabled. They receive $300 to $1,000 a month from the organizations — which doesn’t seem to make sense in an industry that generates billions, DeHaven indicated. “These guys work 24/7; they shouldn’t be struggling

that much,� he said. “That’s why I’m doing the party.�

The urgency to help these riders was highlighted last week when 33-year-old jockey Jorge Herrera was thrown from his mount and killed at the Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton.

At least 700 people are expected to attend the fundraiser, which starts at 6 p.m., including several A-list celebrities — whose identities are being kept under wraps — along with the elite of thoroughbred racing and well-known professional athletes from various sports, according to DeHaven.

Furthermore, he is asking everyone who has ever made a bet or watched a race to attend the event and support the riders. “As an owner, I’m basically making an attempt to bring all of the industry (trainers, owners, jockeys, veterinarians, etc.) together at one event and recognize all of our responsibilities, and to make sure these people and their families are taken care of when they need us,� he said.

The 54-year-old DeHaven has been involved in racing on and off since 1987.

His friend Brian Boudreau,

Jeff DeHaven with his mare Latin Lashes at Rancho Paseana in Rancho Santa Fe. COURTESY PHOTO owner of thoroughbred breeding facility Malibu Valley Farms in Calabasas, was instrumental in introducing him to the sport. The very first starter that they owned together, Seismic Wave, was third in a Group 2 event in England. “I fell in love with the sport,� DeHaven said. “I feel absolutely blessed to be involved, and (to know) the people associated with it.�

At the track, his horses are easily recognizable to San Diegans — his stable’s silks feature the Chargers

www.corum.ch

-B (SBOBEB 3BODIP 4BOUB 'F t

colors and logo. Born in Albany — near the Golden Gate Fields racetrack — DeHaven grew up in Northern California, where the Spanos family was prominent. He noted that the real estate developers, who were based in Stockton, did a lot for the community there, and when they bought the Chargers football team, DeHaven switched his allegiance from the Rams and became a Chargers fan.

He estimates that over the years, he has owned 50 to 60 racehorses, mostly by himself, and some in partnerships of two to three people. Among his most successful runners were Regal Thunder, winner of the 1999 Pat O’Brien Handicap and the eighth-place finisher in that year’s Breeders’ Cup Sprint; Sayarshan, 1999 Golden Gate Handicap and Del Mar Handicap victor; Sicy d’Alsace, who won the San Clemente Handicap in 1998; and stakes runner True Religion. DeHaven also owned a percentage of Afleet, who finished third in the 1988 Breeders’ Cup Sprint — the only time he ever owned a horse in syndication.

DeHaven said he prefers to breed and race his own horses. He has several mares at Hill ‘n’ Dale Farm in Kentucky, including Accusation, dam of the stakes-placed Innocent Man; Eau de Vie, a daughter of Accusation; and Lacy Lady. His mare Latin Lashes is in layup at Jenny Craig’s Rancho Paseana in Rancho Santa Fe. And the interest in breeding seems to be running in the family, as DeHaven’s 13-year-old daughter, Savannah, often makes suggestions on matings and helps name the foals.

To date, DeHaven said his most memorable moment in racing was when Regal Thunder won the Pat O’Brien. The gelding had been on a losing streak, and the public dismissed him at odds of 17-1 that day. But jockey Chris Antley had confidence in Regal Thunder. According to DeHaven, Antley said to him before the race, “I guarantee I won’t lose on this horse today.� It was a battle to the finish, and Regal Thunder prevailed by a nose over Christmas Boy. But racing comes with its highs and lows: DeHaven’s biggest disappointment was the injury of Sayarshan, who bowed a tendon while on track for a start in the 1999 Breeders’ Cup. Currently, DeHaven has four horses in training with Julio Canani — an unraced 2-year-old filly named Secret Motive; Prettypriceygirl, a 3-year-old filly DeHaven claimed at Belmont Park in New York; a 3-year-old gelding named Love to Barrett, who was claimed at Gulfstream Park in Florida; and Say Ow, an unraced 2-yearold colt named for the clothing line of DeHaven’s late friend, local football legend Junior Seau. DeHaven said 10 percent of Say Ow’s winnings will be donated to

the Junior Seau Foundation.

In addition, DeHaven owns Innocent Man’s full sister, a yearling named Stunning Drama who was in a van and on her way to Rancho Paseana as of press time. “She’s the best yearling I’ve ever had,� he said.

DeHaven indicated that he is looking forward to the upcoming Del Mar season, and is captivated by the seaside oval. “There’s no track like it, with the ocean setting and the breeze blowing through there ... almost everyone has a different attitude,� he said.

When he’s not at the track, DeHaven spends time working for The Premae Co., purchasing life insurance policies from people seeking liquidity, and packaging and securitizing them in the marketplace. For the last six years, he has been assisting the Zion Baptist Church of South Central L.A. He structured a policy so churchgoers could afford to bury their loved ones, helped contribute money for scholarships, and assisted in the demolition of four crack houses.

DeHaven also spends time with his family in Rancho Santa Fe, where he has lived since 1988. He and his wife, Kim, whom he met in La Jolla, have four children.

Along with Savannah, there is Chase, 15; Kenya, 9; and Danni, 6.

The Ranch is a place that DeHaven has always loved, and he enjoys the fact that it’s an “equestrian town.�

Because so many of the residents are interested in horses, DeHaven is hoping his “Jockey for a Cause� event is supported locally. “Permanently disabled jockeys depend on the PDJF for financial assistance,�

RSF residents start fundraising effort to send all members of special track team to National Junior Olympics

BY KAREN BILLING In the stands at the Junior Olympic regionals in Los Angeles two weeks ago, parents of the Mira Mesa’s Millenium Track Club were ecstatic in the stands, screaming, shaking and crying as their 9-year-old sons finished fifth in the 4 x 100 relay team, qualifying for the National Junior Olympics in Baltimore.

The 9-year-old speedsters included Joey Bertsch and Marco Notarainni from Rancho Santa Fe and teammates Mekhi and Elijah.

In the stands that day, though, the excitement faded to disappointment as Mekhi and Elijah’s parents were hit with the realization that they likely would not be able to afford the trip. Coaches Duane and Cap, who donate all of their time to coach the children, would also not be able to attend.

Joey’s mother Marla Bertsch gets tears in her eyes when speaking about the dedication and commitment the coaches make, as well as how being a part of the team is a ray of light for the children.

“These people are the most giving, gracious, deserving and loving people who have little means but big, warm hearts,” said Bertsch. “This means everything to them and their kids…I said, ‘We’re going.

We can’t pass this up.’”

Determined to get the team to Baltimore for the July 22-29 event, the RSF parents launched a fundraising drive among their Rancho Santa Fe friends and neighbors with a goal to raise $7,500 for airfare, hotel, car rental and food expenses. The trip costs around $3,500 per family (two parents and

child) or $2,500 (one parent and child) and an additional $1,500 each for the coaches.

If they are fortunate enough to go over their fundraising goals, the families will donate the rest of the funds to other Millennium athletes who are unable to attend but are equally deserving of “making their dreams come true.”

In their initial fundraising efforts, generous donations poured in with people donating airline miles enough for six tickets.

“The coaches didn’t know what hit them,” Bertsch said of the some-$4,000 raised.

Joey and Marco first joined the track team, which draws from all over the county, to stay in shape for football. But they caught the bug, were fast and formed a relay team with Elijah and Mekhi that just kept getting better and better. Nobody expected that they would qualify for the regionals, let alone the national competition.

“The boys, as talented and fast as they are, would not have gotten anywhere without the coaches’ commitment,” said Bertsch. “The love and encouragement that they give to the boys, you can’t put a price on it.”

It is the hope that the coaches, the entire team and their families will be able to enjoy the results of all their hard work and dedication on a national stage this month.

The families have a tax ID number for donations and the fund is being called the Mira Mesa Heroes Fund. To make a donation, contact miramesaheroes@gmail.com

Community workshop to be held July 21 on future of RSF Garden Club building The RSF Garden Club will hold a community workshop on Saturday, July 21, at 1 p.m. to discuss the future of the clubhouse, located on Avenida de Acacias in the RSF village (across the street from the RSF Association offices).

“We want to find out if this is important to Rancho Santa Fe,” said board member Laverne Schlosser. “The hope is that interested community members will be present to assist in planning a direction for the use and/or disposition of the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club clubhouse.”

All interested parties are encouraged to attend the workshop. Please register for the

workshop at RSFGardenClub@gmail.com.

The Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club was founded in 1926 to further the advancement of gardening and landscaping in the community of Rancho Santa Fe. With more than 600 members, the club serves the community through service, social and educational programs. The club’s primary financial support comes from donations and bequeaths, rental of its facilities, sales in its thrift shop, and membership dues.

Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club honored its Pro Emeritus Chuck Courtney this past February with an evening of celebration, appropriately titled “Legends of Golf.” The February “Roast,” entirely funded by Golf Club members, was a sold-out event and a memorable evening.

RSF Association members are invited to participate in the continuing celebration of Pro Emeritus Chuck Courtney and his legacy in golf as a pro, mentor and friend. The unveiling of the bronze plaque honoring Courtney will take place in the short game practice area of the club on Friday, July 20.

Also highlighting this celebration will be the introduction of the inaugural recipients of the Chuck Courtney Honorary Scholarships. Not one but two very fine

young local students will be on hand to receive their awards and meet the event attendees. This scholarship program was made possible thanks to Bob Baker who added a $25,000 Challenge Gift to make the scholarship fund truly viable. Club members matched these funds and then again some! The RSF Foundation set up the Scholarship Fund.

A nominal fee of $10 is requested for this event. All RSF Association members are invited. Please plan to attend this special celebration at 5 p.m. on July 20.

Bring your putter and participate in a fun contest. Special prizes will be awarded.

BY CITY NEWS SERVICE A preliminary hearing was scheduled to begin July 9 for a former bookkeeper accused of stealing more than $3 million from a La Jolla restaurant and embezzling $1.8 million from her mother-in-law in a fraudulent loan scam.

Tara Virginia Moore, 40, faces charges of grand theft, embezzlement, financial elder abuse and forgery for allegedly stealing from her former employer, Jack’s La Jolla, a nowclosed high-end restaurant, and cleaning out her mother-inlaw’s retirement nest egg.

Moore’s alleged fraud against Jack’s came to light when the restaurant’s owner and local resident, Bill Berkley, hired a forensic accountant to examine the eatery’s financial records dating back to 2003, prosecutor Bill Mitchell said at an earlier hearing.

Moore worked for the Girard Avenue nightclub for about four years, beginning in 2005. The business closed in August 2009 and more than 100 employees lost their jobs, Mitchell said.

Defense attorney Paul Pfingst said Moore was actually loaning some of her own money to help keep Jack’s afloat.

He said there was a signed agreement between Berkley and Moore in which Berkley acknowledged that money paid to Moore in partial repayment of her loans was authorized.

If convicted in that case, she could face up to 20 years in prison, the prosecutor said.

Moore, who is out of custody on bail, faces 12 years behind bars if found guilty of charges in the case involving her mother-in-law, the prosecutor said. A mother of two, she also is under investigation for allegedly illegally collecting spousal support after her third husband died, Mitchell said.

Pfingst said the loans from Moore’s mother-in-law were taken out with Moore’s husband and were approved and being paid back.

At the end of the preliminary hearing, which is expected to last several days, Judge Jeffrey Fraser will determine whether enough evidence was presented for Moore to stand trial.

Tom Gildred

Profile

‘Entrepreneur of the Year’ passionate about making a difference

BY KATHY DAY For the last five years or so, RSF’s Tom Gildred has been focusing on making a difference in San Diego. It’s something that runs in his family.

With a successful business in FMT Consultants and his latest project – Emerald Textiles – whirring along, he has put his time into serving as president of the San Diego Museum of Art, working with Irwin Jacobs on the Plaza de Panama proposal for Balboa Park and serving on the board for Sharp Healthcare.

It was in the latter role that he learned a lot about the business of running a hospital and became particularly interested in the impact that hospital linens have on patients and the staff who risk exposure to infectious diseases.

With a background as an entrepreneur, his interest was piqued, and two years ago he began looking into the healthcare linen business and didn’t like what he saw – heavy use of water, energy and chemicals; old, inefficient equipment, and disregard for health regulations designed to guard against infection.

That was enough to inspire him to see what he could do.

“When you are in a weakened state, you want to know the linens come from a place that’s clean and compliant,” Gildred said. “You wouldn’t serve food out of a dirty kitchen.”

They started “with a blank piece of paper in March 2010 – no customers, no facility,” he recalled. “It’s been quite a ride.”

That ride led Emerald Textiles to the recent honor of being named one of Ernst & Young’s “2012 Entrepreneurs of the Year.” (Coincidentally, Gildred started his business career at Ernst & Young, although his first job was a summer of picking up trash at SeaWorld.)

Along the way to opening the linen business, he had to find partners like another well-known San Diegan, Bob Payne, and his family, who were willing to invest $20 million.

Then they had to find the people to run the dayto-day operations and hire a staff that now tops 275 and runs two shifts a day. He and his team (who he emphasized really deserve the award) also had to purchase, design, get permits for and equip a 77,000-square-foot facility in Otay Mesa – an Enterprise Zone designed to spur the city’s economy — and buy all the linens and trucks to transport them. Oh yeah, and find customers.

Somehow, they managed to open six months later.

Despite the rough economic times, he said, with the right people, “We were fortunate to have the pieces come together at the right time.”

And they did it with an eye to saving energy and water by spending on their

equipment, Gildred added, noting that their cleaning process takes one gallon less per pound of linens than others in the business in San Diego. That’s a significant savings since they clean about 40 million pounds of linen a year.

They also invested in an energy reclamation-heat transfer process that saves about 750,000 therms of natural gas annually – and turns out cleaner linens.

SDG&E and the California Public Utilities Commission have both honored the company for its efforts.

Today, Gildred and his team, which includes people who knew the industry from the inside as well as a controller who came from the biotech industry, are looking at expansion into the Los Angeles and Orange County markets. When they go north, they’ll invest in new facilities, too.

Emerald Textiles already serves Sharp Healthcare, Scripps Health, UCSD Medical System, Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, and Kaiser in San Diego and Orange Counties.

But while Gildred acknowledges he’s turned into a bit of a workaholic in recent years, he is all about making San Diego a better place as his family has done over three generations. His parents Philip and Lyn Gildred, like him, are Rancho Santa Fe residents, and he’s close to his two sisters and their families.

His father grew up in Mission Hills; his mom in the Chula Vista-Bonita area before moving to Point Loma. Now their son is president of The Gildred Companies, a real estate company managing over a million square feet of industrial and business parks that’s been in business for 85 years.

FMT Consultants, an Enterprise Resource Planning software company he founded in 1995, has done well, Gildred said, “providing me the opportunity to be more engaged in the community, which I see as my responsibility.”

He believes strongly that people should take time to do what they can.

“If not us, who will it be?” he asked. “If you are waiting for the answer, you

Above: Tom Gildred with the fruits of his labor at Emerald Textiles Left: Gildred at the San Diego Museum of Art, a place he has spent considerable time promoting. Both of Gildred’s grandfathers and his mother were presidents of the museum. are doing the wrong thing.”

His grandfather, Philip L. Gildred, came to San Diego with his brother Ted Sr. in 1925 and built the Fox Theatre — now Copley Symphony Hall. Philip then helped found Sharp Hospital. Tom’s uncle, Ted Jr,. is a former ambassador to Argentina who was instrumental in establishing the Institute of the Americas at UCSD and formed the Lomas Santa Fe Group.

Both of his grandfathers – one was an artist — were presidents of the San Diego Museum of Art, as was his mother, so his involvement with the museum was in his blood, he said, adding. “I never did expect to be an expert.”

But because he understands the operational aspects of running a successful business, he said he believes he can be an asset.

“I want everybody in San Diego to be aware of the museum and go visit the museum,” he said. “It’s important to be aware of the

museum and participate as visitors or through school groups. What if there’s a DaVinci out there and they never are exposed to the museum.”

Gildred’s passion for the museum and Balboa Park have him smack in the middle of the plans for Plaza de Panama, the proposal to remove cars from the center of the park and restore it for pedestrian uses. The plan calls for a new Centennial Bridge and road and a new underground parking structure topped by a park.

The San Diego City Council voted 6-1 July 9 in favor of the plans for Plaza de Panama.

“I am thrilled with the outcome of the vote by the San Diego City Council,” Gildred said. “This is a great day for the citizens of San Diego and a huge step forward in preserving and restoring Balboa Park to its historic use including a grand public plaza and pedestrian park spaces.”

A one-time member of

the USC sailing team who later competed in windsurfing, Gildred manages to find time each day for a onehour run followed by a session at Haute Yoga. But he doesn’t get out on the Fairbanks Ranch golf courses as much these days as he used to since he makes the trek to the Emerald Textiles plant three days a week and generally stays from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. so he can keep track of how the operation is functioning.

He has traveled frequently, most recently to Spain for the opening of the Edwin Binney 3rd Collection at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum of Art in Madrid, is starting to collect art and has become an avid collector of wine.

“That’s not a habit you want to get your children involved in,” he said with a chuckle.

RSF resident wins two Gold Medals at USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic National Championships

Gabriel Garon and KJ Newman (above and right on the victory podium).

RSF resident KJ Newman, 11, won two Gold Medals in trampoline at the USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic National Championships held July 4-8 in Long Beach, Calif. More than 2,000 athletes competed at the Championships.

KJ Newman teamed with Gabriel Garon, age 13, of Carmel Valley to win the Gold Medal and National Championship for synchronized trampoline in the 13-14-year-old age group (level 10). They competed in the 13-14 age group, despite the fact that KJ is only 11 years old because Gabriel is 13 years old.

KJ Newman then went on to win an individual Gold Medal and National Championship for double-mini trampoline in the 11-12 year old age group (level 9).

KJ Newman competes for the gym SoCal TTC in Poway, and Gabriel Garon competes for the gym Bounce California in Rancho Bernardo. They are good friends and have competed together for two years, winning a Silver Medal at the 2011 Junior Olympic National Championships held in San Antonio, Texas.

A video of KJ Newman in competition can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU2s00yTyC4&feature=pl cp The sport of trampolining will be among the events included in competition at the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games in London.

Fundraising continues for expansion of Scripps Encinitas critical care facilities

BY KATHY DAY With 28 years in the fire service, Kevin Crawford knows firsthand the value of having efficient and accessible emergency room facilities nearby.

So when the Carlsbad fire chief was asked to lead the program to close the fundraising gap for the second phase of the expanded critical care building at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas, he said, “OK, sign me up.”

A two-year member of the hospital’s community advisory board and currently its chair, he took on the task of heading up the capital campaign in January with a goal of raising $11 million for the second phase of the $94 million project.

When complete in two years, the project will more than double the size of the emergency department and increase the number of medical-surgical beds by 43 percent.

“We have narrowed the gap to roughly $4 million,” he said last week. “I’m extremely excited about our success over the last few months.”

While he’s pleased with progress, he’s still hard at work along with others explaining why the expansion is needed.

“People really didn’t

An artist rendering of the planned expanded critical care building at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas.

From left: Carl Etter, Chief Kevin Crawford, Dr. Michael Lobatz, RSF’s Tyler Miller and Jim Ashcraft join in at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Scripps Encinitas Critical Care Building. COURTESY understand Scripps Encinitas,” Crawford said. “It’s been an out-of-sight, out-ofmind hospital for many people.”

Many area residents go to Scripps Clinic or Scripps Green Hospital for their regular care and many don’t see the Encinitas facility as a comprehensive hospital, he added.

But if they need emergency service and live in coastal North County, Scripps Encinitas is where they go or are taken by paramedics.

Crawford, who was a firefighter-paramedic before moving up in the ranks and often transported patients to the Encinitas hospital, has seen ambulances forced to park in spots designated for

hospital visitors instead of in designated ambulance bays. He also has seen patients waiting to be admitted have to stay in the ER until beds became available and paramedics unable to get back into service as they stand by waiting until their patients can be treated.

While the population of the area around the hospital has grown by more than 20 percent, according to SANDAG figures, the number of patient visits is up by about the same number. Meanwhile, no new patient care facilities have been added since 1992.

“It’s remarkable what they’ve done (to work around the limitations),” Crawford said. “The care given at Scripps Encinitas

We Are Buying ...Immediate Cash Paid

has continued to advance and increase, yet they don’t have the tools, resources or plant they need.”

But, he added, “Once we tell the story, people get it” and have made donations large and small toward the project, which got underway in late April with a formal groundbreaking ceremony. “The buzz is starting to grow. People are rallying around the campaign.”

The new critical care building and central energy plant will take over what was a parking lot on the southwest side of the property on Santa Fe Drive adjacent to Interstate 5. A new parking structure opened in Spring 2011.

The two-story building is set to open to patients in

two years.

The new ER will include 27 beds — all in private rooms — replacing the 12 now there, and 36 inpatient beds for those recovering from surgery or acute illnesses. Those beds also accommodate patients being admitted through the ER. New MRI, CT scanner and diagnostic X-ray units will be included along with a telemetry system for constant wireless monitoring of patients’ vital signs.

A helipad on the roof for transporting patients to trauma units or newborns in distress is in the plans and six – instead of two – ambulance bays for arriving units will be added. Also new will be a central energy plan that will be the primary source of utilities and a series of gardens for families and staff.

One of those gardens

will be a green roof garden on the second level, planted with native grasses and succulents. Improvements on Devonshire Drive and the southbound I-5 offramp are also included in the second phase Scripps has also launched the 354 Campaign – named for the hospital’s address — to raise $1 million in addition to the effort Crawford is leading. The 354 Campaign, which is a subset of the larger campaign, is centered around selling tiles, benches, and trees in a dedicated walkway adjacent to the new emergency facility currently under construction. The more significant gifts in the 354 Campaign may include name rights for rooms, etc., in the hospital.

RSF sculptor Dale Steffen earns awards at SD County Fair Dale Steffen (also known as the “bird man of Rancho Santa Fe”) received three ribbons for his bird wood sculptures at this year’s San Diego County Fair. His piece “Semipalmated Plover” won second place; “American Avocet” won fourth place and “White-Crowned Sparrow” received an honorable mention.

Steffen, a charter member of the Rancho Santa Fe Art Guild, has been entering his work into the fair competition for the last dozen years. He said he believes it’s a great place to showcase his art as some 500,000 visitors pass by his work in the Design in Wood section of the Mission Tower Building.

“My wife Sharon and I go to the fair each year for the awards presentation, not to mention the food, Texas BBQ and the cinnamon rolls, yum!” Steffen said.

Steffen’s artwork can be viewed all year long at the Rancho Santa Fe Art Gallery, 6004 Paseo Delicias, in the Rancho Santa Fe village. Steffen also works in other mediums, such as clay, oil paintings and pastels.

His pieces can also be found online at www.sdvag.net.

Foster Teens of San Pasqual Academy to benefit from ‘Teens, Jeans and Dreams’ equestrian event Don’t miss an evening of excitement and thrills on Saturday, Sept. 8 at 5 p.m. at Del Mar Fairgrounds. Put on your jeans and western boots and join in the fun. Friends of San Pasqual Academy is organizing a Team Penning Event to benefit the 150 foster teens of San Pasqual Academy. Chairpersons for this competition are Rancho Santa Fe residents Bill and Connie McNally. Charger Quentin Jammer is the Honorary Chairperson. Committee members include Lois Jones, Ann Boon, Monica Sheets, Teri Summerhays, Kathy Lathrum, Andrea Reynolds, Heidi Hollen, Karen Ventura, Joanie Spence, Debby Syverson and Joan Scott.

What is team penning? This is a very exciting and fun activity to watch that involves horses, western riders and cows. It is a timed competition, where a team of three riders on horses attempt to put three of the same numbered cows in a pen. The team that does this the fastest, wins! Unfortunately, it is not as easy as it sounds. There are 30 numbered cows in a herd and each team must cut three specific cows that have the same number out of the herd. They must bring these cows down to the other end of the arena and put them in a corral. If more than four cows cross over a designated line, the team is disqualified. Many amusing things happen trying to accomplish this feat!

Cost of a ringside VIP Sponsor box is $1,200, which includes dinner and beverages for six people, a VIP wine reception and a silent auction. There is a limited supply of VIP boxes and they must be purchased in advanced by calling 858-759-3298. General admission tickets are $30 for adults, $15 for children, 12 and under.

A “Calcutta” will start at 6 p.m. before the competition begins. This provides the opportunity to purchase a team that one feels will win the competition. The purse is shared by the highest bidder of the team that wins the Team Penning event.

If you would like to ride, sponsor, donate an auction item, or attend this event, please call (858) 759-3298 or visit their website at www.friendsofsanpasqualacademy.org.

The event will be held on Thursday, July 19, from 8-9 a.m. at the RSF Golf Club (5827 Via De La Cumbre in Rancho Santa Fe).

Medicare offers all enrollees a defined benefit. Hospital care is covered under Part A and outpatient medical services are covered under Part B. To cover the Part A and Part B benefits, Medicare offers a choice between an open-network single payer health care plan (traditional Medicare) and a network plan (Medicare Advantage, or Medicare Part C), where the federal government pays for private health coverage. A majority of Medicare enrollees have traditional Medicare (76 percent) over a Medicare Advantage plan (24 percent). Medicare Part D covers outpatient prescription drugs exclusively through private plans, either standalone prescription drug plans or through Medicare Advantage plans that offer prescription drugs.

RSF Fourth of July Parade a hit

BY KAREN BILLING This year’s Fourth of July parade through Rancho Santa Fe village was deemed a success at the Rancho Santa Fe Association meeting on July 5.

“It was a good parade, we had a really great turnout,” said Rancho Santa Fe Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser.

Wellhouser said that near the end there were almost more people in the parade than watching it.

“It was like a moving block party,” said board member Rochelle Putnam. The event ran smoothly under the control of a crew of 25 patrol and sheriff’s officers. Wellhouser said the Association staff did a “knockout job” handling all the details, specifically Shannon Mountain.

JOCKEY continued from page 4 PDJF Executive Director Nancy LaSala said in a news release. “The PDJF was established to provide long-term assistance to jockeys who have suffered on-track catastrophic injuries. Since its inception in 2006, it has been, and continues to be, challenged to meet its financial goals to meet the dayto-day needs of these men and women. We have great hopes that ‘Jockey for a Cause’ will help provide security for our injured riders, and we are very appreciative to Jeff for his commitment to these athletes.”

“The Jockey Club Safety Net Foundation helps not only jockeys, but many others in the industry in their time of need,” the organization’s executive director, Nancy Kelly, said in a news release. “Trainers, grooms, exercise riders, hot walkers, farm workers and front office personnel turn to us, and we want to be there to

help. ‘Jockey for a Cause’ will help us help those valuable members of the industry.”

Tickets for the party cost $100 if bought in advance, or $200 if purchased the day of the event. Go to www.pdjf.org or www.tjcfoundation.org.

Guests who order tickets will meet at Horizon Christian Fellowship, 6365 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe, where they will be given a wristband and transported by bus to the DeHaven residence.

There will be a car service available for anyone who has had too much to drink, DeHaven said.

He added that he hopes this fundraiser becomes an annual event.

“It’s (horse racing) a very fragmented industry,” DeHaven said, and added that the medication issue is certainly not helping. “The public is being misled to a certain extent. Changes need to take place for the betterment of horses and the industry.”

Green said there is a misconception about the Art Jury that they just “deny everything” but that is not the case. In 2011, 162 applications were approved the first time, 39 applications were approved after one revision, 12 were approved after two revisions and 10 were denied.

“I think (the Art Jury) process is the envy of many communities,” said Green.

“Many communities want to have a process like Rancho Santa Fe’s but for many it’s too late to go back.”

‘Divine Rivalry’ a duel of the masters

BY DIANA SAENGER Competitions among rivals are nothing new. Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci faced off in a painting match back in the 16th century as Old Globe playgoers will learn at the West Coast premiere of “Divine Rivalry,”

by Michael Kramer with D. S. Moynihan, and directed by Michael Wilson.

The play is based on a real-life event between the famous artists and Niccolò Machiavelli, the Italian diplomat, historian and political theorist who wrote “The Prince,” and who orchestrated the competition.

But there’s more to the contest than a rivalry between the artists. As the chancellor of Florence, Machiavelli has a political agenda in mind. Seeing how much Michelangelo’s statue of David, inspires people, and worried about invasions of his precious Florence, Machiavelli hypes the competition to draw crowds in the hope they will be compelled to protect the state.

The cast stars Miles Anderson, Euan Morton, and David Selby.

The Renaissance-era costumes by David C. Woolard should be a treat. Also intriguing will be the visual effects on a stage screen (like The David) that will set the at-

Letters to the Editor/Opinion

Cell antenna plan bafflingly gets poor reception

BY GLENN BOROK In an era of financial uncertainty, everyone from individuals to international corporations are cutting back on their spending.

However, one important area that’s at the receiving end of some of the most devastating cuts is education. Schools across the nation are facing slashed budgets and less federal money. That’s why I was amazed to read a story in this paper last week that the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board had rejected a proposal from the San Dieguito Union High School District to install cell antennas on the roof of Canyon Crest Academy. This proposal would have given the school greater cell reception and technological capabilities, while also generating revenue.

The plan, known as Sprint Together with Nextel, Canyon Crest Academy SD75XC061, calls for three sets of four panel antennas facing out from the rooftops in different directions at separate locations on the school’s “F” and “G” buildings. The antennas will be blocked by a parapet so as not to be seen by anyone on campus.

Despite the fact that these antennas will be concealed and kept away from students and faculty, the planning board rejected the proposal based on its location and the lack of notification given to CCA parents. While I have no qualms with the planning board on its charge that the school did not properly inform the parents and teachers (the district did hold a poorly advertised community meeting about the proposal as required by the planning board), I believe that if the district suitably notifies the public there should be no further reservations about the installation.

That leads me to the planning board’s main problem with this installation. At the meeting, board members spoke out about the potential health issues associated with antennas being in such close proximity to the students on a daily basis. Besides the fact that the antennas will be hidden behind a wall on the roof, far away from any classrooms, the possibility of harmful radiation from these antennas is a proven myth.

In Pulse Magazine, Dr. William G. Bradley Jr., professor and chairman of the department of radiology at UCSD, stated, “There are no known health effects of cellular towers. If there were, they wouldn’t be allowed.”

Also, by allowing the installation it can be reasonably inferred that the school district, which presumably did its due diligence when accepting this project, also found no medical reason not to allow this project on

campus. According to 10News, groups such as The Federal Communications Commission and American Cancer Society have also said that cell towers are safe. Also, according to wireless firm Antenna Search, the school already has approximately 40 towers and 100 antennas within four miles of the school. In addition to that, according to the EMR policy institute, federal law currently prohibits state and local agencies from basing tower/antenna construction permits on the harmful environmental effects of radiofrequency radiation emissions to the extent that facilities comply with the Federal Communication Commission’s regulations. [47 USC Sec. 332( c)(7)(iv)]. The courts have ruled that this applies to human health and, in this case, the cell antennas do comply with current FCC regulations and it is therefore illegal to reject the proposal based on health reasons.

In addition to our district approving of this project, districts nationwide have installed cell antennas on their campuses. One planning board member stated at the meeting, “We’ve never had a cell tower this close to kids at a school,” which is incorrect.

Schools from Florida to Oregon are receiving checks of hundreds of thousands of dollars for implanting antennas all over their campuses. In fact, in August 2010, Poway High School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously to install AT&T cell antennas on the football stadium at Del Norte High School for a cool $382,000 a year, according to 10News. PUSD Superintendent John Collins stating, “Research and governmental studies do not support the claim that cell towers present a health issue to students.”

PUSD currently leases cell towers to cell companies at seven of their schools, including four high schools.

In addition, the CV planning board suggested that Sprint should look elsewhere for a place to put their antennas. However, they decided that the only location with a high enough roof and ample space was the CCA campus.

The culmination of all this evidence leads me to wonder why the CV planning board simply didn’t acquiesce to the proposal of the school district and instead blocked a plan that could have improved technology at and provided money for one of the nation’s finest high schools.

Glenn Borok will be a senior at Canyon Crest Academy this fall. He is also an intern at this newspaper and co-editor in chief of Pulse Magazine, the official magazine of Canyon Crest Academy.

Last year’s popular Gourmet Food Truck & Craft Beer Festival will be back, with more delectable choices than before. Set from noon to 6 p.m. July 28, there will be 50 trucks from throughout Southern California and more than 50 brews on tap.

About 29,000 people were on hand last year during the festival, up from an average attendance of 20,000 on Saturdays, Dado said.

If doughnuts and coffee are more your cup of tea, Donut Days will be held July 21 and Aug. 25.

Track announcer Trevor Denman will host questionand-answer sessions with

jockeys and trainers during the horses’ morning workouts. According to Dado, the lineup for July 21 will be jockey Chantal Sutherland, the face of advertising at Del Mar this year, and Doug O’Neill, trainer of 2012 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner I’ll Have Another.

Other returning events include Daybreak at Del Mar morning workouts and breakfast (weekends), Family Weekends, Oggi’s Pizza ’n Ponies Thursdays, newcomers seminars (one hour before first post), handicapping seminars (weekends and Labor Day), Miss Cougar Del Mar (July 27), the Western Regional Chili Cookoff and Salsa Contest

(Aug. 4), Ladies’ Day (Aug. 5), the San Diego qualifier for the Wienerschnitzel Wiener Nationals (Sept. 3), Jockey Photo Day (Sept. 3) and Party in the Paddock (Closing Day, Sept. 5).

This year, Del Mar will present 14 types of wagers, from the standard win, place and show to several five- and six-horse combination bets. The Pick Six will offer a guaranteed pool of $125,000 on weekdays and $250,000 on weekends, while for the minimum 50cent Pick Four bet, it’s $250,000 on weekdays and $500,000 on weekends. The 50-cent Player’s Pick Five will be back, but the experimental head-to-head bet introduced last year won’t be returning.

New cyclists are taught to follow the rules of the road, which include using the rightmost lane in the direction they are traveling.

Bicyclists are also taught to scan traffic and signal when changing lanes.

Wood said statistics show only 18-percent of cycling accidents involve a bike and a car, and of those, the majority happen at intersections.

The most common accidents occur when drivers make a right turn in front

ferred to as a “right hook.”

“Drivers should be aware and always expect to see cyclists,” Wood said, adding half of cycling injuries occur from riders falling off their bikes.

If there’s an object in the road — or uneven pavement or potholes — a deadly collision can happen if a passing motorist doesn’t give the cyclist enough space to avoid the hazard, which is why SDCBC is campaigning for the threefeet passing law.

Hanshaw said Oceanside is the only city in the county classified as a “bikefriendly community.”

In May, the first street parking space designed for bikes (a 12-space bike corral) was dedicated on Fifth Avenue, north of University Avenue. Hanshaw said more corrals are planned.

Advice for Bicyclists • Avoid busy streets.

• Light up your bike for dusk/night riding.

• Take the whole lane when appropriate.

• Signal your turns.

• Re-think music players and mobile phones.

• Don’t ride too close to parked cars. Doors can open suddenly.

• Stop at all stop signs and obey traffic (red) lights just as cars do.

• Ride single-file on the street with friends.

• When passing other bikers or people on the street, always pass to their left side, and call out ‘On your left!’ so they know you’re coming.

• Children under age 10 are better off riding on the sidewalk.

• Watch for and avoid road hazards. Potholes, broken glass, gravel, puddles, leaves, and dogs can cause a crash.

“We’ve got it down to a pretty good science,” he added.

All seniors age 62 and older can enter the track for free on July 19 and Aug. 30, and can get in at no charge on all other Thursdays with a Diamond Club card.

Also, on Sundays (with the exception of Pacific Classic Day, Aug. 26), if a Diamond Club member brings a nonmember who signs up for a card, both will receive free admission and a free beach bag cooler.

“We’re excited about (the upcoming season), and we think it will be a great year,” Dado said.

SUSPECT continued from page 1 about an hour before his body was discovered, Parent said.

Citing evidence found at the scene, the CHP later released a description of damage believed to have been caused to the vehicle that struck Bojorquez.

Parent said a neighbor of Byun’s saw damage to his black 2008 Chevy Avalanche on Sunday and reported it.

When a CHP officer went to Byun’s home, he refused to cooperate, prompting investigators to obtain a search warrant, Parent said. The warrant was served and Byun was arrested.

Bojorquez’s bike had no light on it but authorities said he was wearing a reflective vest. He was single and lived in Escondido with older brother, aunt and uncle.

His brother, Steve, told reporters on Friday, July 6, that the two worked at the same grocery store and often drove to and from together but their schedules did not match up last Friday, so Bojorquez biked to work instead.

He had only biked the 20 or so miles from work to home a few times, according to his older brother. Visit www.rsfreview.com for updates.

After the Finish Line fundraisers help give former racehorses a second chance

BY KELLEY CARLSON The grass is not always greener for thoroughbred racehorses after their career on the track is over.

Nonprofit organization After the Finish Line aims to change that.

The Toluca Lake-based group — composed entirely of volunteers — is dedicated to saving, rehabilitating and retraining former racehorses for a second career off the track. It contributes funds to rescue and retirement orga-

nizations throughout the country to protect these horses from slaughter and neglect, and holds about 15 fundraisers a year, with several in Del Mar. According to Dawn Mellen, founder and president of After the Finish Line, the group raised $130,000 in 2011, helping more than 300 horses through 70 rescue organizations.

“After the Finish Line hosts many fundraisers dur-

ing the Del Mar race meet to raise awareness for horses,” said Mellen, who has a residence in Rancho Santa Fe. “People may not be aware of the afterlife of these racehorses. In their mind, (the horses retire to) nice, green pastures... Not all horses do.

We’re here to help, here to give them a second chance and give them opportunities.”

This summer, the organization has four events scheduled locally.

Local student fulfills dream of starting dance company Company fundraiser to be held July 13 in Solana Beach

BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

La Jolla Cultural Partners

Starting a dance company after college has always been a dream for Sophie Needelman. But recently she got the idea: Why wait until after college?

“I realized I don’t have to wait; I can start it today,” said Needelman. “And that’s what I did. I started it that day.”

Needelman and Canyon Crest Academy senior Becky Kalinowski head the The Defiance Project, a dance company they started in Solana Beach. Needelman has garnered major community support even while running the company from afar — the 20-year-old studies dance at the University of California, Berkeley. The dance company will be performing at its first official

Defiance Project directors Becky Kalinowski and Sophie Needelman COURTESY PHOTOS

fundraiser on July 13 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Studio Shu, located at 742 Genevieve St., Suite A, Solana Beach, 92075. The event will also feature silent auction items, desserts and more.

Needelman said she wanted to call the dance company a “project” rather than a “company” because she wants to promote a sense of community for those involved. The members come from all reaches of life and geographic locations, she said, with many friends from Canyon Crest Academy and others she reached out to because they shared a similar creative vi-

sion.

“You can be part of a project even if you aren’t a company member,” she said. “We are scattered all over and we want to form a community whether or not you can be there.”

She said the members explore the concept of defiance through their creative work.

“It’s artistic content on a personal level as well as a social and political level,” Needelman said.

According to the project’s website, “Boundaries must first be known in order to be broken. Defiance allows us to know ourselves, because of and in spite of these boundaries. It yields the growth necessary to then become limitless as a dancer and as a human being.”

Needelman has been a dancer since childhood, but she said she only started to get serious about dancing when she dedicated herself to Canyon Crest Academy’s

Envision dance program, as well as the local Eveoke Dance Theatre.

“I wouldn’t consider myself one of those people who started really early,” said Needelman. “It’s never too late and it’s never too early to start something like this.”

Needelman hopes to one day have her own performance and rehearsal space where she can teach dance in addition to performing. Her goal is to establish a prominent presence in the San Diego dance community.

In addition to performance, Needelman is getting to learn first hand what starting a business is all about.

“There are so many elements I am learning, and I don’t even know what I don’t know at this point,” she said. “The artistic passion and de-

Defiance Project dancers huddle before going on stage. sire is there, but I am embarking on the business side of things.”

There has been overwhelming support from dance company members as well as people in the dance community, Needelman said.

“I am so grateful that people believe in my artistic vision and want to help me make this

work,” Needelman said.

Needelman said funds raised at the July 13 event will be put toward offsetting the cost of future performances, rental of rehearsal space, publicity and marketing materials, and more.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Jerry Gold honored for work in mental health Jerry Gold, Ph.D. MBA, was named San Diego County’s 2012 Mental Health Person of the Year by the County Mental Health Recognition Team. As administrator of the behavioral health Jerry Gold clinical care line for Scripps Health, Dr. Gold oversees behavioral health throughout the system.

The Mental Health Person of the Year award recognizes those who have made a dramatic impact on mental health within the community, and Gold joins an esteemed group of previous winners, including prominent clinicians, administrators, advocates and judges.

Gold was nominated largely because of his role in establishing the pioneering A-Visions program at Scripps Mercy – a vocational training and modified support employment program for people with mental illness. In addition to his work at Scripps, Gold has been an advocate for those with mental illness throughout the community while fighting to erase the stigma surrounding mental illness.

What might you add, subtract or improve in the area?

I would like to see more resources put into our schools focusing on the content of the educational experience and enhanced educational facilities. I would like our schools to integrate more technology, hardwire music and art into the learning experience, and increase understanding through real-life learning experiences. I would like to see schools partner more with local corporations like QUALCOMM and Scripps to provide resources and practice opportunities for students in the field.

I also wish that the curriculum would be more responsive and flexible to a fastpaced, wired-global environment.

Who or what inspires you?

People who take risks. People who do things to help others and make a difference in the community without judgment or prejudice. People who have the courage to live their own truth.

If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite?

care.

3. Sister Mary Jo Anderson, who is a member of the Scripps Board of Directors and whose tireless efforts to serve those in need in San Diego, particularly for her support of the Mercy Clinic, and who is the honorary grandmother to my two children, Evan and Emily.

4. Mother Teresa, whose dedication to making a difference in the world changed the lives of those who were less fortunate, and who inspired others to do the same 5. Sophia Loren, who was born in poverty and overcame difficult life circumstances to become a beautiful actress and my daughter’s namesake (her middle name).

6. Michael Phelps, the most accomplished swimmer of all time whose foundation is focused on supporting active lives among our youth. I love to swim.

Spend time with my family — Ken, Evan and Emily.

What is your most-marked characteristic?

What would be your dream vacation?

Being with my family, and traveling to each continent immersing ourselves in the culture, staying with families who are different from ours and learning new things ... but ending up on a beach in the South Pacific, enjoying the sun, the surf, and my family, until duty calls us home.

What historical figure do you most identify with?

Sigmund Freud What is your motto or philosophy of life?

“Life is being on the wire; everything else is just waiting.” And “The purpose of life is to live it, to taste the experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer, richer experiences.”

The Volcano cocktail is large enough for two guests.

BY KELLEY CARLSON ccording to at least one source, Mandarin House isn’t just one of the best Chinese restaurants in La Jolla -it’s among the top 100 in the United States.

Chinesemenu.com, a service of Chinese Restaurant News, identifies it as among the premier establishments of its type (out of more than 46,000 nationwide) meeting ideal criteria for location, price and cuisine.

And local residents seem to agree, as Mandarin House is a frequent recipient of reader’s choice awards from area publications.

The original location is on La Jolla Boulevard, a short distance from WindanSea Beach and just south of the Village. A second site is in San Diego’s Bankers Hill neighborhood.

Two white lion statues greet customers outside the entrance to the La Jolla restaurant. Once inside, guests will find an elegant, yet simple setting. The small lobby is softly lit by a chandelier; an aquarium rests on a ledge just to the right. Patrons can watch news or sports programming while seated at a table or the four-seat bar.

The neutral-toned main dining and banquet rooms are spacious, with minimal decor, as the true focus here is on the cuisine. Casual booths line the windows, which are set with teacups and Chinese zodiac placemats. More formal, whiteclothed tables are located down the center of the room and along the mirrored wall; the cushioned seats feature swirling oriental patterns. Light contemporary music plays quietly in the background.

A

Much of the food is colorful, pairing crispy and smooth textures and sweet and sour tastes — typical of Mandarin-style cooking. Other dishes incorporate the Szechuan method, with bold flavors of garlic and chili peppers and the use of ingredients such as peanuts and ginger. Hunan is yet another style that can be found, in the hot and spicy, deep-hued dishes.

Guests can begin their meal with appetizers like Smoked Chicken-Mandarin Seaweed, Roast Pork Slices, Egg Rolls and Crab Rangoon. Or there are soups ranging from Hot and Sour, Won Ton and Egg Drop to Chicken Gold Corn.

There are a number of entree options, in categories of poultry, duck, beef, pork, seafood, vegetables, and noodles and rice.

Highlights include Crispy Beef, composed of shredded prime beef quick-fried with carrots and celery, then cooked in a hot, spicy sauce; Double Happiness, a combination of jumbo shrimp and scallops in a special sauce; and Peking Duck served with thin pancakes.

Owner John Law especially touts the Kung-Po Chicken, consisting of diced poultry and scallions cooked in a spicy, red-chili pepper sauce and garnished with peanuts. “Nobody makes the sauce like us,� he said.

There are also chef’s specials such as Ginger Shrimp, which is battered shrimp quick-fried with shredded ginger root in a sweet-and-milky, spicy hot sauce; and the zesty Orange Beef.

Delivery is available (for a $1 charge) within five miles of the restaurant, 5-9 p.m. daily, with a minimum $15 order.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

What are the top leading causes of death for men?

BY ARNOLD CUENCA, DO, SCRIPPS HEALTH The current average life expectancy for men is 76 years.

If you’re a man who wants to push that number as high as possible — or a woman who wants the same for your husband, father or brother — you may be interested in the leading causes of death for men and what you can do to help prevent them.

Heart disease tops the list. Heart disease includes a number of heart conditions, including heart failure, arrhythmia, and coronary artery disease. Coronary artery disease develops when plaque builds up in the arteries that supply blood to the heart. This causes the artery to narrow and makes it difficult for blood to carry oxygen to the heart, which can lead to a heart attack.

Heart disease can often be managed or even reversed with medical care, lifestyle changes, or both. Controlling blood pressure and keeping cholesterol and weight in check can lower the risk of a heart attack. Being a non-smoker, eating a low-fat, heart-healthy diet and getting cardiovascular exercise are also important.

The leading causes of cancer death in men are lung cancer, prostate cancer and colorectal cancer. Ninety percent of lung cancer is related to smoking — so if you smoke, quit.

Avoid secondhand smoke as much as possible, too.

Most men should begin having a discussion with their doctor about prostate screening exams at age 40. The decision to screen for prostate cancer is a shared medical decision based on each individual’s risk factors and symptoms.

Colon cancer is very curable when detected early. Two accepted methods of colon cancer screening are a colonoscopy and a test to check for blood in the stool. Talk with your doctor about which test is right for you. Generally, most men should have their first colon cancer screening at age 50.

If there is a family history of colon cancer or other risk factor, screenings may be recommended sooner or more frequently.

Unintentional injuries are also a leading cause of death.

That’s a formal way of saying “accidents” and includes things like fatal falls, sports injuries, fires and car accidents.

In many cases, of course, these can be prevented with common sense and safety measures. Don’t drive while intoxicated, distracted, or tired, and wear a seatbelt at all times. Install smoke detectors at home and plan an escape route in case of fire or other emergency. Take precautions when using ladders or working on the roof. Spend a little time planning for safety in all activities. It may save a life.

A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, either by a blood clot blocking blood vessel passage or by a blood vessel tearing. Deprived of the oxygen carried by the blood, the affected brain cells begin to die, causing brain damage. If the brain is without oxygen for too long, a stroke can be fatal.

Many of the risk factors for heart disease also apply to stroke, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, tobacco use, diabetes and lack of exercise. Keeping the heart healthy can also help prevent stroke.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is also on the list. COPD refers to two lung diseases: chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Both can disrupt breathing, leading to shortness of breath and difficulty performing everyday activities. Frequently the two exist together. Many cases of COPD may be preventable; between 80 percent and 90 percent of COPD deaths are caused by smoking. Breathing in some industrial pollutants also may raise the risk of developing COPD, so take steps to minimize exposure.

Rounding out the list is diabetes. Now considered an epidemic, diabetes affects the body’s ability to produce or use insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas that helps the body use glucose (blood sugar) for energy. Uncontrolled diabetes increases blood sugar in the bloodstream and upsets normal body functions. When blood sugar remains high, it may damage organs such as the eyes, kidneys, heart and limbs.

Type 1 diabetes occurs most often in children and young adults. It is an autoimmune disease, which means the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys its own insulin-producing (beta) cells. 90-95 percent of Americans with diabetes have Type 2, which develops over time as a result of lifestyle factors such as obesity and lack of exercise.

If not treated, diabetes can lead to serious or fatal complications, including heart disease, stroke, and kidney dis-

ease. Fortunately, once diabetes is diagnosed, it can be managed with medication and lifestyle changes. In many cases, type 2 diabetic complications may be prevented or even reversed with weight loss and exercise.

Falcons golf star overcomes career-threatening injury with hard work, perseverance

BY GIDEON RUBIN On a summer day about three years ago, the promising golfing career of Danny Ochoa, a soon-to-be-freshman at Torrey Pines High, appeared to be over.

Ochoa was riding a motocross bike his parents had promised him after winning a dirt bike tournament when he miscalculated a jump at Pala Raceway.

“I landed wrong on the pike and my bike landed on top of me and snapped my humorous (bone) in half,” Ochoa said. “It was pretty gnarly.”

Doctors painted a grim outlook when he arrived at a local hospital.

“They thought my (golf) career was over,” he said. “It was a huge concern.”

Ochoa underwent surgery and had two metal rods placed in his broken left arm. Doctors at the time told him the best scenario they could envision was a return to the fairways in a year at the soonest.

Within seven months, his determination turned the opinions of medical experts on their heads. Ochoa surpassed the rosiest possible forecasts when he showed up at the 2010 Callaway Junior World Golf Championships five months before doctors thought he’d even be able to hit off a tee.

And then he took the “comeback kid” narrative to another level.

Competing against an elite field of 210 fifteen to 17-year-olds at Torrey Pines Golf Course, including some players who’d be playing at the collegiate level within a year, Ochoa didn’t just make a token appearance.

He placed fifth.

“I was pretty shocked,” Ochoa said. “I was just hoping for a top 20 to get back into the tournament and I finished fifth.

“I was a lot younger so I couldn’t grasp the meaning of how well I did, but now when I look back at it, I think I did phenomenally well, especially considering the circumstances.”

His stunning breakout performance in that tournament set the tone for a stellar prep career that included helping lead Torrey Pines High to a 2011 state title, shooting a San

Danny Ochoa Diego Section record 8-under-par 64 at the North County Conference Championships earlier this year, and making an oral commitment to USC. Ochoa, an incoming senior, is the top returnee on one of the state’s most highly regarded programs.

“He wasn’t going to let this injury stop him,” Torrey Pines coach Chris Drake said. “For a lot of people (with the type of injury Ochoa suffered) that’s it, but the only the thing the injury stopped was his desire to ride a motorcycle.

“He had his mind set on a goal of playing in college and beyond, and he’s been able to do that.”

Ochoa was an accomplished golfer who’d already made his mark in the amateur ranks at the time of the injury. He was already on the Falcons’ radar before he set foot on the

San Diego Botanic Garden to hold several events in July San Diego Botanic Garden will hold the following events this month:

campus, Drake said.

Ochoa’s comeback is a tribute to a positive attitude and a strong work ethic that carries over into the classroom, Drake said.

“He had to relearn how to play the game and he had a great deal of pain,” Drake said, noting that Ochoa hit the weights hard to rebuild his strength during the grueling rehab and again after he had the steel rods removed from his arm.

“It just made him work twice as hard to get back to where he is and now he’s one of our strongest players,” Ochoa said. “Physically, he’s one of the strongest players on our team.”

Ochoa admits the early days of rehab were tough. He had very little strength and even less range of motion in his surgically repaired arm. He spent three days a week undergoing physical therapy that started with the painful process of stretching out his arm, and then strengthening it.

“That was the easy part,” Ochoa said. “The rehab wasn’t the hardest part, the uncertainly was.”

But Ochoa remained committed to doing what he could to get himself in the shape he’d need to be to compete against a competitive field that wasn’t sitting around waiting for him to recover from his injuries.

“I always wanted to get better at golf, that was my goal, to come back and hopefully be as good as I was before the injury,” he said.

Ochoa credits his father, Don, himself an avid golfer who introduced his son to the sport when he was practically a toddler, with inspiring him through the bad days.

He also credits his personal coach, Chris Mayson, with getting him on a program that helped foster his success.

Ochoa now views the injury in philosophical terms.

He’s learned that broken bones eventually heal and weak muscles can be strengthened provided you’re willing to put in the work.

“I don’t believe it’s hurt me,” he said of the accident.

“Everything happens for a reason, and I feel like if you deal with the ups and downs and you can overcome just about anything.”

Music in the Air: SummerFest ventures boldly into second quarter-century

BY DAVID L. CODDON One year after marking its 25th anniversary in grand style, La Jolla Music Society’s SummerFest returns July 31, poised to make bold statements about the breadth and transformative power of music.

The new season will feature an evening with jazz luminary Branford Marsalis, the last La Jolla appearance by festival favorites the Tokyo String Quartet, and a sweeping oraWhat: SummerFest torio by Chi2012 nese composWhen: July 31-Aug. 24 er Tan Dun, Where: Various loca“Water Pastions in La Jolla, sion after St. Downtown San Diego Matthew,” and Carlsbad which will be Tickets: Single-event performed in prices vary; season La Jolla Playsubscriptions $389house’s Man$699 dell Weiss Box Office: (858) 459Theatre.

3728 Cho-LiWebsite: ljms.org ang Lin, Schedule of Events: Summerljms.org/SummerFest’s music Fest-2012-/Performancdirector es/ since 2000, calls the Tan Dun work “an incredible adventure. It’s really a spectacle, visually stunning. I thought this would be fantastic with the San Diego Master Chorale in mind because I heard them sing with the San Diego Symphony last year. I thought ‘Wouldn’t it be nice to do something outside our usual boundaries?’”

“Water Passion,” which Lin says is “logistically by far the hardest project we’ve ever done,” is a collaboration with La Jolla Playhouse, a festival first. “We examined all the different venues,” Lin explained, “and the biggest worry was the visual aspect. I want the audience to have a slightly more elevated view of the stage so that you can see the lighting.”

“The Weiss is just perfect for this piece,” said Christopher Beach, president and artistic director of La Jolla Music Society, who called Playhouse artistic director Christopher Ashley and managing director Michael Rosenberg “great colleagues.” In addition to providing the venue for “Water Passion,” the Playhouse’s production department is supporting the event.

The Aug. 4 performance of “Water Passion” will be preceded by a “Prelude” discussion with Lin and composer Tan Dun. The “Preludes” are a signature feature of SummerFest, designed to educate and enlighten concertgoers. “They provide a context for the audience that is terribly important,” said LJMS’s Beach.

Saxophonist Marsalis’ Aug. 8 performance at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s Sherwood Auditorium will be a “hybrid” concert, said Lin. It will explore classical influences in the first half of the show, and more traditional jazz in the second half. SummerFest enjoys a tradition of presenting jazz musicians in fresh creative contexts, among them keyboardist Chick Corea and sax man Wayne Shorter.

The Tokyo String Quartet, which will perform Aug. 12 at Sherwood Auditorium, has had an ongoing residency commitment to SummerFest. “We learned that this summer was going to be their last in La Jolla,” Lin said. “I’m very sad for that, but I’m glad

If you go

Christopher Beach, president and artistic director of La Jolla Music Society, and Cho-Liang Lin, SummerFest music director we get to celebrate them.”

Christopher Beach is among those who will be in the audience for the quartet’s goodbye performance. “It’s going to be a bittersweet concert for me,” he said. “I will personally listen to every note even more closely than I normally do.”

Beach said he’s particularly proud of the relationship between artists and audiences that has been built over the years at SummerFest. Many visiting musicians stay in the area for a week or more during the festival, some in patrons’ homes.

The result? “The artists walk on stage and they have an audience whom they know,” said Beach. “The audience walks into the theater and it’s a friend of theirs who walks on stage.”

The SummerFest audiences are attentive and appreciative, said Beach. “The artists repeatedly say to me: ‘This audience is listening more intently and with greater care and respect than any other audience I know except for (in) Japan and Paris.’

“The audience (at SummerFest) is breathless, silent in a pause. For the artists to be in a group of people who are listening intently is a great shower of praise.”

This season’s SummerFest audiences will be treated to a little envelope-pushing by music director Lin. “I hope that with time, exposure and perhaps conviction, the audience has come to realize there is a great deal of music to be enjoyed and experienced, that a trust has developed and a sense of curiosity.”

With that in mind, Lin has augmented favorite and more familiar repertoire on the festival schedule with the likes of “Water Passion” and the “classically daring” survey of Schubert, “A Journey Through Time,” on Aug. 7, which will feature pianists Jeffrey Kahane and his son, Gabriel, and the Tokyo String Quartet.

Also, on Aug. 15, SummerFest presents “A Little Nightmare Music” with Igudesman & Joo, an unpredictable duo that mixes comedy with both classical and non-classical music. The late Victor Borge must be smiling “We’ve got a richness and a diversity in the festival which I am very proud of,” said Beach, whose La Jolla Music Society presides over a summertime tradition. “SummerFest was great 10 years ago and 20 years ago,” he said. “It was the right idea for this community at this time of the year.”

Opinion/Commentary: Another assault looming for combat vets

BY RICK ROGERS DEFENSETRACKER.COM One war is over while another winds down.

A more important fight looms at home.

I’m not talking about troops wrestling with Post-Traumatic Stress, but battling unscrupulous predators mining GI Bill gold while delivering nothing but penniless Rick Rogers pockets and sour futures.

Soon combat veterans by the hundreds of thousands will join 600,000 comrades already using the GI Bill to forge new lives.

And as these vets return home, sound decisions on education and employment will matter like never before. Decisions no less important to our national interest than the outcomes in Iraq and Afghanistan — arguably more so.

Education is the key to driving down veteran unemployment – anywhere from 9.5 percent to 30 percent depending on whom you ask – and changing public perceptions.

While Americans respect veterans, a national poll in June also showed half believe most veterans suffer from Post Traumatic Stress and are also more prone to abusing drugs and alcohol than civilians. Both opinions are factually incorrect.

Maybe more importantly, the public views Iraq and Afghanistan veterans as a particularly uneducated lot.

With commendable foresight, Congress anticipated the weight a generation of fighting men and women would place on the GI Bill and updated the education package, stunning in its generosity.

Unfortunately, the applause most heard when the Post 9/11 GI Bill was signed into law in 2008 sounded like a dinner bell to others.

To give you an idea of the kind of money we are talking about, consider San Diego County.

Every year 30,000 service men and women leave the service here. Most leave with about $50,000 in educational benefits.

That means veterans with roughly $1.5 billion in GI Bill spending power pass through San Diego each and every year.

Don’t think for a minute that sketchy schools with high costs and low graduation rates haven’t noticed.

San Diego is filthy with predatory educational institutions focused on exploiting our most vulnerable veterans with snake-oil offerings.

They prey on those with PTS and brain injury knowing they shy away from interaction with others and would rather sit at a computer screen instead of in a classroom. It’s the equivalent of giving an alcoholic a drink and charging him for therapy.

A few weeks ago the Supreme Court drew the ire of some veteran advocates by shooting down the Stolen Valor Act, a 2006 law that made it a crime to lie about receiving military decorations.

The Supreme Court – correctly in my mind – ruled that while those who claim medals never earned engage in contemptible speech, it is also unfortunately protected speech.

To criminalise lying could lead to unintended consequences worse then the offense.

If only the same advocates would back a law making it a crime to rip-off veterans. That would be a law we could all support.

Longtime Solana Beach salon and barber shop a community staple

BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

Owner Terry Sonken at the entrance of the Stratford Court Cafe’s large outdoor patio.

Popular Del Mar brunch spot now offers dinner during Summer Nights

BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

Stratford Court Cafe in Del Mar has been a local hidden gem of a breakfast and lunch spot for more than 20 years, and now it’s adding dinner to its menu.

“Our customers gave us the idea, actually,” said owner Terry Sonken. “They said it would be so nice to sit on the patio at night and have a glass of wine, so we thought we’d try it out for the summer.”

In addition to beer and wine, The Stratford (as locals commonly call it) has incorporated a menu with a local, fresh California summer food theme. Popular items include a ham panini with fig jam and mozzarella on an herb focaccia bread, and an Italian sausage flatbread with caramelized onions, mozzarella and roasted red peppers. Sonken also expects to offer live music, but she and her family are easing into Summer Nights, opening only Thursday through Saturday, from 4-8 p.m.

The Stratford is truly a family-run operation. On

Dining on the outdoor patio any given day you can find either Sonken or her husband, Gregg, on site running the cafe. Their daughter, 23-year-old Alexia, also works there.

“When our other daughter comes home from school, we put her to work too,” said Sonken. “The fact that we are family owned lets people know we really cater to customers and want them to feel comfortable.

People like that they are well taken care of, like family.”

Being one of the few dog-friendly establishments in Del Mar, the Stratford allows visitors to comfortably bring the entire family.

So far, locals have quickly picked up on the cafe’s new hours. On a recent Thursday, guests began trickling in right around 4 p.m., steadily filling the outdoor patio for dinnertime. Regardless of the success of Summer Nights, Sonken said she doesn’t want to extend the new hours into the winter.

“I could see this becoming a tradition every summer,” she said.

Stratford Court Cafe is located at 1307 Stratford Court, Del Mar 92014. For more information, visit www.stratfordcourtcafe. com; 858-792-7433.

County Pet of the Week Celeste is a 4-year-old spayed Tortie/White feline who weighs about 13 lbs. At first she is a little shy with new people, but she quickly warms up and loves to be petted and brushed. When she is comfy with you Celeste will roll over for belly rubs while purring non-stop. When you stop petting her she will gently nudge your hand with her head to insist you continue petting. To meet this love bug, ask for ID#A1463112 Tag#C900. Celeste can be adopted for $58.

Decades ago, the local barber shop was the common gathering place for men of all ages. It was a cheerful place where men could get together, read the paper and talk about sports among other things.

This scene hasn’t totally disappeared, however, and especially not in Solana Beach. One can always walk into the barber shop at Salon by the Cove, located at 128 South Acacia, and find that very atmosphere.

“We’re absolutely run like an old-timey barber shop,” said owner David From left: Alton Rivera and owner David Schenk stand in Schenk, who has worked as a front of Salon by the Cove, which has served the Solana barber in the area for more Beach community for more than two decades. than 25 years. “We always get together in the morning and read the paper and talk guy talk … We talk about sports and golf and, well, that’s all I can tell you.”

For those who have had their hair cut at the walk-in barber shop, which is adjoined by a ladies’ salon, they likely remember longtime barber Jim Rogers, who retired about six months ago at the age of 91. Rogers began his career as a barber in the Marine Corps in the 1940s and he later opened a shop in Oceanside and then came to Solana Beach in 1982 to work full time.

“Basically everyone in the area who’s picked up a pair of scissors or a razor, you worked for Jim Rogers,” Schenk said.

Now the barber shop has three barbers, and Schenk has built a large following of regulars. He said he cuts the kids’ hair of many men he remembers putting on the booster seat decades ago. He started his Solana Beach salon at a nearby location 25 year ago, and he moved to the current building, which overlooks Fletcher Cove, about seven years ago.

“Pretty much everyone who walks in the door I’ve known for at least 20 years,” he said.

“It’s definitely a fun job. It’s social and easygoing and relaxed.”

Schenk continued, “Eventually it gets to where you know everyone in town.”

Schenk said being a barber is a craft — “an art if you will, a skill.” But in addition to having an eye for a good haircut, Schenk and salon manager Michele Catalano said communication is a vital part of running a great barbershop and salon.

“Ninety percent of the result comes from the experience a client has here,” said Catalano. “You have to have the skill, but it’s so much more than that.”

A.J. Croce will bring an eclectic repertoire to Anthology

BY DAVID L. CODDON You can go home again.

After living and writing music in Nashville, A.J. Croce is back in San Diego, where he was raised on love and music. The son of Ingrid and the late Jim Croce is back in the town where he played his first gig: a bar mitzvah party when he was 12 years old.

Now 40 years old and eight albums and too many live performances to count later, A.J. Croce is enjoying a musical career that happily defies categorization. His influences range from pop and rock to R&B and jazz, and they’re reflected in his songwriting and piano playing.

Croce, speaking by phone from Paso Robles, site of a gig, says his eclecticism “happens naturally. I get to play what makes me happy or I’m not happy doing it. I’ve always been drawn to different kinds of music. To me, it’s more exciting. It’s more interesting.”

“I’m a songwriter and a piano player more than anything else. I write songs and I play them.”

A.J. Croce

If you go What: A.J. Croce When: 7:30 p.m. July 18 Where: Anthology, 1337 India St., Little Italy Tickets: $10-$29 Contact: (619) 5950300 Up next: Leo Kottke, 7:30 p.m. July 19 and 20 at Anthology, tickets: $14-$59.

Not surprisingly, the music his father listened to proved a powerful influence.

“I was fortunate to have all these recordings he

made in the living room or in the kitchen on an old reel-to-reel,” Croce recalled.

“I got a sense when I was 30 about what he was into, and I was completely amazed that we had so many of the same influences, from Fats Waller, Bessie Smith, Woody Guthrie, Mississippi John Hurt, country artists like Hank Williams and Lefty Frizzell and Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson, and rock ‘n’ roll stuff and all sorts of R&B – Sam Cooke and Otis Redding.

“Where our styles separate is I got more into jazz stuff and a little more into the rock ‘n’ roll music of my generation, and he got into folk music like the Weavers and the East Coast coffeehouse scene of the ‘50s.”

Those who attend A.J. Croce’s show July 18 at Anthology in Little Italy are in for a treat. “For 20 years, I never played my dad’s stuff, but I’m going to play a handful of songs of his,” A.J. said. “I’ve been doing a couple for maybe a year now because I just love his music. In January, we did a tribute on his birthday, and it was so successful that I’ll

definitely do three or four of them.

“As much as I like stuff like ‘Rapid Roy (The Stock Car Boy)’ and those kinds of tunes, I really like some of the lesser-known songs of his that are more serious and down to earth,” Croce said, citing his father’s “Box Number 10” and “Tomorrow’s Gonna Be A Brighter Day.” Whatever Jim Croce songs A.J. performs at Anthology, they’ll be performed on guitar. “I didn’t play much guitar in the past, and I’ve really picked up the instrument,” he said.

And they’re off! Track-inspired desserts show around town The Kitchen Shrink

BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN Racing fever is in the air (or mare, pardon my pun) with Opening Day at the Del Mar Racetrack just around the bend. The six-week meet that begins on July 18 brings traditional and inspirational racing fare throughout the town.

Desserts are particularly divine and decadent, and ironically cannot be enjoyed by scale-obsessed jockeys whose indulgences are a dropperful of yoghurt or a morsel of a muesli bar. The nags mostly eat oats, forage and green apples.

So it’s our job to consume the sweets of the racing season, richer than the purse at the Kentucky Derby. Here’s a run-down of the best offerings across the board.

From the Horse’s Mouth Executive Chef Barry Schneider with Del Mar Fairgrounds & Racetrack has a pair of Opening Day desserts at the Turf Club that belong in the winner’s circle. You can’t lose with the Lucky Golden Horse Shoe Chocolate “Pyramid,” smooth like jockey silks, this chocolate caramel mousse has a crispy chocolate hazelnut crunch, and mound of antioxidant seasonal berries.

For the traditionalists, there’s Del Mar’s house-made warm Peach Cobbler with an almond streusel topping, and dollop of vanilla Haagen Dazs. Chef Barry also recommends checking out the Gastro Celebrity Pub to satisfy cravings for Del Mar’s Signature Carrot Cake with cream cheese frosting, and Sky High Frozen Mocha Mud Pie drizzled with chocolate sauce.

Off-track Eating Chef Bernard Guillas from La Jolla’s Marine Room has created a winning “Trifecta” combo, a trilogy of treats on a single plate — a refreshing Hibiscus Blood Orange Tarte, Canton Ginger Pot de Crème and a Feuillantine Gianduja Crunch of hazelnut leaf.

Crisp and Bubbly Nectarine and Raspberry Cobbler In honor of the thoroughbreds, here’s an oat-loaded cobbler with fresh summery fruit that’s a sure bet during track season and always.

Ingredients 5 pounds (about a dozen) ripe-yet-firm nectarines Zest from one lemon (I prefer Meyer) 2 cups light brown sugar 1 1/2 cups, plus 2 tablespoons unbleached flour 1/2 pint fresh raspberries 1 cup oatmeal 1/2 pound sweet butter (diced) Dash of salt Few drops almond extract Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a rectangular baking dish with butter or canola oil.

Cut the nectarines in thick slices, and For the gluten-free, there’s a Three-Layer Dacquois, piling high flavors of mocha, toffee, pistachio, wild strawberry and Thai basil syrup.

La Valencia Hotel has an outrageous dessert line-up, the field ranging from a Passion Fruit and Vanilla Bean Cheesecake with candied macadamias to a Poached Peach Upside-Down Cake dressed in blueberry sorbet

toss in a large bowl with zest, 1/2 cup of brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of flour. Blend in the raspberries. Transfer the fruit to the baking dish. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 cups of sugar, oatmeal, salt, extract and butter. Mix with an electric mixer until crumbly. Sprinkle on fruit, and bake until golden and bubbly, about one hour. Serve solo or with a generous scoop of vanilla bean gelato.

and pecan praline.

Del Mar’s “Asian Cowboy” aka Burlap saddles up a peanut kettle corn chocolate banana cream mousse, sesame apricot shortcake with a heavy-handed scoop of mascarpone ice cream, and Vietnamese chocolate brownies.

Fluid Front Runners If your sweet of choice comes in liquid form, the favorites are good and plenty.

These mulit-tasking libations will also ease the pain (if you’re losing). At the track the old standbys still flow like the Palomino’s manes, including the Del Martini, the Del Mary, the Del Mar Rumrunner and the Del Margarita, either traditional or with an antioxidant twist of pomegranate juice.

For those wearing hats on Opening Day, swing by Del Mar’s Davanti Enoteca for

a complimentary signature house libation, or sister eatery Mia Francesca for a glass of Italian white Prosecco.

The Pink Lady has a pair of summer juleps — a bourbon strawberry bitters or mottled stewed peaches and mint.Other whistle-whetters include a roasted pineapple margarita and Cabrillo Sangria with dry rose.

Triple Crown Treats If you’re throwing your own Opening Day shindig at home, the dessert field is wide open. Use flavors reminiscent of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes.

Some southern Derby delights might include a Mint Julep cake with bourbon butter sauce, a silky crème de menthe Grasshopper Pie, or boozy bourbon truffle balls with candied pecan crust.

Memories of Maryland include wild strawberry shortcake or a Black-eyed Susan spice cake with orange, rum and pineapple chunks. For New York state-of-mind desserts try a Belmont Breeze pie incorporating the flavors of the signature cocktail — bourbon, lemon, cranberry and mint.

Scripps and Kaiser Permanente physicians among first in Blues guitarist to shine at Starry Starry Night gala The 10th annual Starry, Starry Night benefit for Voices for Children in foster care will U.S. to give irregular heart rhythms the deep freeze be held Saturday, Sept. 29 at the Rancho Valencia Resort in Rancho Santa Fe, which is un-

Physicians from Scripps Health and Kaiser Permanente have teamed up to be the first in San Diego to use a cryoablation system to treat atrial fibrillation, a serious heart rhythm disorder that affects millions of Americans.

Unlike traditional ablation treatments that use radiofrequency, or heat, to destroy faulty electrical circuits in the heart, this newly FDA-approved freezing technology allows the catheter to adhere to the tissue during ablation, allowing for greater catheter stability.

Dr. Doug Gibson, Scripps Clinic, and Dr. Brant Liu, Kaiser Permanente, recently led the effort that resulted in the first successful procedure in San Diego at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla using Medtronic’s Arctic Front Cardiac CryoAblation Catheter System.

Scripps is the exclusive provider of cardiac surgery, interventional cardiology and electrophysiology to the more than 515,000 Kaiser Permanente members across San Diego County.

“We have found that using cold, rather than heat, may minimize the risk of damaging healthy heart tissue and other structures surrounding the heart,” said Dr. Gibson. “The potential advantages of cryoablation are fewer complications, less radiation exposure, and less discomfort for the patient.”

More information can be found at www.scripps.org or kp.org/sandiego.

Clarifying confusion about prostate cancer screenings is focus of free Scripps Educational Program July 18 To help clarify public confusion about prostate cancer screenings, Scripps Health will host a free educational program “Prostate Cancer Screening: The Other Side of the Story” on Wednesday, July 18, from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Schaetzel Center at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla.

Scripps is offering the program in light of a federal health panel’s recently approved recommendation against routine prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening for men of all ages. The recommendation by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force goes against two decades of widespread use of the PSA test as a diagnostic tool, and creates uncertainty among many patients about how to proceed with screening decisions.

Prostate cancer is a major public health issue in the United States. It is the secondmost common cancer in men and the second-leading cause of cancer death among men. In a 2010 survey, more than half of American men older than 40 reported taking a PSA test in the prior two years, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The program is open to the general public and validated parking will be provided.

Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla is located at 9888 Genesee Ave., La Jolla 90237. More information on events is available by calling 1-800-SCRIPPS.

dergoing a renovation to reopen in late summer.

Blues guitarist Coco Montoya will have the entertainment spotlight. Before starting his own band, Montoya performed with John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers.

The evening will begin with a cocktail hour and silent auction, followed by dinner served al fresco and catered by Rancho Valencia’s new chef Eric Bauer.

Designer Tricia Renia of The Floral Department will enhance the outdoor setting with sustainable floral designs and artistic lighting effects.

The 2012 event co-chairs are La Jollans Lise Wilson and Steve Strauss, and Debby and Wain Fishburn. Funds raised will support the work of the more than 800 CASA volunteers who serve on the front lines of the foster care system helping to transform the lives of thousands of children.

Tickets for Starry, Starry Night are $500 per person. Sponsorships range from $5,000 to $100,000. For information the event, contact Kristen Kurtz at (858) 598-2222 or kristenk@ speakupnow.org. To purchase tickets, visit www.ssn2012.org

San Diego Surf Girls Under 10 Premier team tops in division at tournament The San Diego Surf Girls Under 10 Premier team won the Silver bracket at the 4th Annual Kick for Hope Soccer Tournament held in San Diego the weekend of July 7-8. Coach Gabe Arrendondo led the girls to a 2-0 victory in the championship game against Chula Vista YSL Pumas at Hickman Field in San Diego. Midfielder Charli Adams’ magic footwork led her to scoring both goals, with able assistance from Karly Reeves, Annabelle Mitchell and Amy Flather. The game was an improvement over the team’s first match with Chula Vista in round robin play, where one goal sufficed to defeat them.

The team was on fire against the Bonita Rebels in the last game on the 7th, beating them 5-1, with Annabelle Pham scoring two goals as well as performing dominating defensive play. Surf tied its last preliminary match against the SDSC Orange team, having already ensured the top score in the bracket. Outstanding performances were demonstrated by all the girls, with standout play by Makena Crimaldi, Abigail Dunbar, Nica Zsiros, Maggie Bischoff and Sarah Footer. Particularly spectacular all weekend was the keeper, Mia Grust.

An excellent beginning for the team as it absorbs Coach Gabe’s emphasis on footwork and developing “magic.”

You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Expert helps people find a career that is the right ‘fit’

BY KELLEY CARLSON Local resident Christie Gilbert’s career is helping other people find a career.

The principal and owner of Gilbert Consulting Services often works with college students in their third and fourth years, new graduates, and people who are finding themselves in the wrong career and are needing to transition.

Gilbert has developed a process to help her clients understand who they are and what career fits them.

Then she helps them network and find opportunities that are interesting to them.

“The more self-aware you are, the easier it is to find and pursue your passion,” Gilbert said.

The Colorado native knew she was on the right career path from her first job, at Digital Equipment Corp.

(HP). During her time there, from 1981 to 1996, she served as an education program manager and later as an organizational development management consultant. While she was employed there, Gilbert earned a bachelor of science degree in business administration from Regis University in Denver, and a master’s certificate in curriculum instructional design and technology from the University of Colorado.

Gilbert then became an independent management consultant, facilitating learning programs and simulations in the areas of team ef-

OPENING continued from page B1 award prizes based on hats’ creativity and style in five categories: Best Racing Theme, Funniest or Most Outrageous, Most Glamorous, Best Flowers/All Others and Best Fascinator, a new category that features headpieces attached by a clip or headband.

“The hat business is booming,” said Julie Sarno in a news release, who began the contest in 1995 and continues to coordinate it each year. “More women are daring to wear hats and fascinators. Wearing a fascinator is like dipping your toe in the water. It completes the outfit but is not as big a commitment as a hat. A well-designed hat or fascinator completes an outfit, adding to its appeal and allure.”

In an interview, she added that hot pink is the trendy color this season.

Entries will be taken until 3 p.m., which will be the start of the hats parade.

In all categories except Best Fascinator, first place will win $300, while second place will receive $200 and

fectiveness, process improvement, change management, performance technology and organizational development, for nearly a year.

After working for Compaq/Digital Equipment Corp. (now Hewlett-Packard) and Kinko’s Inc., Gilbert landed her dream job as director of learning and development at the now-defunct software company Peregrine Systems in March 2002. She moved to Carmel Valley from Ventura with her husband, Marty Streim, to be close to her job — and was laid off four months later.

Yet Gilbert kept a positive attitude.

“It all worked out,” she said.

Her next step was to become an independent consultant for Strategic Organizational Solutions, before being named director of global learning and organizational development for Memec LLC. Finally, in 2004, she established Gilbert Consulting Services, offering executive coaching and leadership training along with organizational development services.

From 2006 to 2010, she provided coaching services for early tenure professionals as a faculty member of leadership development for a top global consulting firm.

More recently, Gilbert started spending time helping friends and clients handle career transitions, and subsequently began transitioning into a career develop-

ment coach. She helps people find jobs suited for them, but is not a life coach.

“It’s very rewarding when working with a client and when they have those ‘a-ha’ moments,” Gilbert said.

There are two important steps in finding satisfaction and success in a career: becoming self-aware and identifying your strengths and weaknesses, and building and leveraging your network, Gilbert advised.

“Most people in successful careers have relationships they built along the way,” she added.

Gilbert has aided hundreds of people from around the world in their jobs over the years, and identifies a local woman as one of her top success stories. The woman was a high achiever in high school, and enrolled at UCSD as a finance major upon advice from her family.

However, she was struggling academically in her second year. After Gilbert had the student take an assessment test, they discovered the major wasn’t “right” for her. Deciding to instead pursue international business, the woman switched majors, and Gilbert coached her with networking and internship interviews. The student said she now has the best internship she ever dreamed of.

Kim Perl, a friend of Gilbert’s, said that as a favor to her a few years ago, Gilbert met with her sons to help them get past a few obstacles

third place will get $100.

The winner of Best Fascinator will be given $100.

The Bing Crosby Grand Prize recipient — chosen from the winners of each category — will be awarded two round-trip airline vouchers to anywhere in the U.S. aboard American Airlines. Also, the winner in the Most Glamorous category will be presented with a gift from The Diamond Boutique in Del Mar. All hats contest entrants will receive two free admission passes for a future visit to the races.

“Hat competitions abound, but none is greater or with more spectacular hats than the opening day hat contest at Del Mar,” said Los Angeles-based hat designer Alakazia, who creates hats for celebrities, including Lady Gaga, in a news release. “The world is my oyster and hats are my passion!

The array at Del Mar is simply astounding.”

Other planned activities at the track include a performance of the national anthem at 1 p.m.; the HippityHop Derby, in which Camp Del Mar participants bounce

on large balls in a race down the stretch; and a special guest’s rendition of “Where the Turf Meets the Surf” as part of Sing With Bing.

The feature race of the day will be the $100,000 Oceanside Stakes for 3-yearolds on the turf. It will likely be one of the later races on the card.

For those who prefer to be away from the crowds, they can head to Del Mar’s satellite wagering facility, Surfside Race Place, which is adjacent to the track. The second-floor Saddle Club will be open, which features dozens of LED flat-screen TVs and live tellers. Food and drink will be available for purchase.

“We heard from a number of people ... that as much as they love Opening Day, it’s hard for them to make a bet, find a seat (etc.),” Dado said.

Tickets are $20 per person, and include table seating. They can be purchased on Opening Day through the Del Mar ticket office at (858) 792-4242 or at www. dmtc.com/season/tickets/.

AFTER continued from page B1 esty of Thoroughbreds,” is slated to run from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. July 26 at the Hilton San Diego/Del Mar, 15575 Jimmy Durante Blvd., Del Mar. There will be a reception with hors d’oeuvres, entertainment and a fullcourse dinner.

In addition, there will be silent and live auctions.

Mellen said there will be more than 100 silent auction items, from racing memorabilia to spa products, surfboards, restaurant gift certificates and equestrian items. Live auction items include a ride in a blimp, artwork by renowned equine artist Fred Stone, and a week’s stay at a luxury cabin at a lodge.

This year’s master of ceremonies is Dan Cohen, KFMB morning news anchor. Guest speakers will be Hall of Fame jockey Laffit Pincay Jr., and Laffit Pincay III, NBC Sports and HRTV host.

Tickets cost $135; people are encouraged to RSVP by the “soft deadline” of July 16, but are still welcome to buy tickets after that date.

Those who come to the event “are making a difference and standing up for the welfare of horses,” Mellen said.

She noted that After the Finish Line raised $60,000 last year from the “Tribute”— nearly half of the annual total.

Volunteers are still needed to help with preparations the week before the event, assisting with final details, setting up on the day of the celebration, and the “Tribute” itself.

“It will be a lot of fun — it’s all about the horses,” Mellen said.

find their way forward in meaningful and fulfilling ways, she began to realize helping people identify and achieve their career goals was her passion!” Perl said in an Charity of the month at En Fuego Cantina & Grill En Fuego Cantina & Grill’s August charity of the month is After the Finish Line.

The nonprofit worked with a bartender to specially create a Finish Line Margarita, and the restaurant will donate $1 to the organization for every one of those drinks that are sold.

Also, After the Finish Line will take over the restaurant for a party titled “A Fiesta for the Horses” from 6 p.m. to midnight Aug. 8.

During this time, 10 percent of all restaurant sales will be donated to the group.

“What you eat is what you spend,” Mellen said.

“It’s going out to dinner, but dinner with a cause.”

She added that they are working on securing a guest bartender for the evening, possibly a jockey.

En Fuego is at 1342 Camino del Mar in Del Mar. After the Finish Line Thoroughbred Series horse show Off the Track Thoroughbreds, or OTTBs, will compete for $1,000 in prize money in the After the Finish Line Thoroughbred Series at the Del Sol Classic Horse Show. The event is scheduled for Aug. 15 and 16 at the Del Mar Horsepark, at the corner of Via de la Valle and El Camino Real.

These hunters and jumpers are examples of former racehorses who have been retrained for another career. Mellen said many OTTBs also achieve success in polo, therapy, trail, dressage or even just as companions.

After the Finish Line, which provides the prize money, will have a table at the show to supply information about the organization.

Gilbert said her goal is to help build the next generation of leaders.

“It’s great to watch folks progress,” Gilbert said.

She meets with clients for an average of three sessions, although the number depends on the services needed. Her hourly fees vary, and sliding scale is available.

A silent auction will be held, as well. Last year, racing and equestrian paraphernalia, wine and restaurant certificates were among the items up for bid.

There is a recommended minimum tax-deductible donation of $10 to After the Finish Line, and funds will specifically go to thoroughbred rescue organizations in California.

Last year’s Pacificfest netted more than $5,000.

“Even with a down economy, our donations have increased year after year,” Mellen said. “We have become more well-known throughout the United States, and the support has been wonderful.”

Prudential experts to hold free seminar July 18 on avoiding pitfalls when buying a home Shelley and Peter Linde of Prudential California Realty are hosting a free informative seminar on Wednesday, July 18, at 7:30 p.m., at the Marriott Shelley Linde Del Mar, 11966 El Camino Real, Carmel Valley, 92130. Joining them will be two dynamic guest speakers. All three speakers will be addressing how to avoid the pitfalls in making a purchase in today’s real estate market.

According to Shelley Linde who has worked as a Realtor in both Northern California and San Diego, buying property to-

day is a lot more complicated. The internet has created a false impression that you find your home online and simply go to an open house to make your purchase. Buyers and sellers are both becoming disillusioned with the process. In this seminar they plan to point out what to look for in a location, in a structure and in a loan — photographs on the internet don’t tell the entire story.

“A home is the largest investment most of us will ever make,” Shelley Linde said. “Our goal is for our guests to be able to make smart purchases and invest in their family’s future both financially and emotionally.”

An evening of information, fun and food — free of charge!

Space is limited. To reserve a seat, please RSVP to Linde Properties at slinde@ prusd.com or call 760-585-5824.
