Del Mar Fairgrounds looks to create its own craft beer brand with brewery, restaurant BY JOE TASH Hoping to tap into a growing craft beer industry in San Diego County, the agency that operates the Del Mar Fairgrounds is moving forward with plans to build a micro-brewery inside an existing, under-used satellite wagering facility on its 400acre property. The brewery would not only brew beer for the fairgrounds’ own brand for consumption during events at

the venue, including the annual San Diego County Fair and horse racing meets, but also potentially sell its product off-site, officials said. “It’s a growth industry, we want to be a part of that,” said Fred Schenk, a Carmel Valley resident and president of the 22nd District Agricultural Association Board of Directors, which oversees the state-owned fairgrounds. “We’re confident that with the millions

BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) board approved its new contract through 2017 for Superintendent Rick Schmitt at its Sept. 4 meeting, although it was not unanimous. Trustee John Salazar voted “no.” “It has nothing to do with performance,” Salazar explained, noting he gave Schmitt a very high evaluation and said that he enjoys working with him. Salazar said one of his reasons for voting against the contract is that with seven candidates running for three available spots on the board in November’s election, he thinks that the board should wait until after the election to approve Schmitt’s contract. Salazar also said he is opposed to public employees having contracts. Trustee Barbara Groth said Salazar’s comments were “interesting”— she said it sounded like his decision was based on personal philosophy while “based on reality, a three-year contract is a public show of confidence” and an appropriate thing to do. According to SDUHSD See CONTRACT, page 6

of people we attract to the fairgrounds, it’ll be very successful.” The board voted 5-1 at its meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 10, to issue a “request for proposals” from companies interested in operating the fairgrounds brewery. It was the third time this year the board has taken action on the micro-brewery proposal. In February, the board rejected a proposed partner-

ship with Blue Moon Brewery, a subsidiary of beer giant MillerCoors, to operate a micro-brewery. At the time, some board members said the 22nd DAA had not done enough to solicit proposals, especially from locally-based breweries. In June, the board approved a request for proposals, but had to bring the matter back for another vote this month after the document was amended. Also,

for the September vote, director David Lizerbram recused himself from the discussion and left the meeting room. Lizerbram had informed Schenk that he has been actively involved in forming a marketing association to promote San Diego’s craft beer industry. Before voting on the request for proposals, directors said See BREWERY, page 6

SDUHSD kicks off a variety of Prop AA-funded projects over the summer BY KAREN BILLING “New and improved” is a description that can be applied to many San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) campuses after a round of projects funded by Prop AA took off this year. The school board held a facilities workshop on Sept. 4 to hear a project report on what the district accomplished during the summer — and the many more upgrades yet to come. “This was the busiest summer ever for this district,” said Eric Dill, assistant superintendent of business services. “There is over $47 million in ongoing projects right now.” Over the summer there were three media center remodels; technol-

ogy upgrades across the board; work started on a new science building at Torrey Pines High School and on the new joint library space at Earl Warren Middle School; a new middle school in Pacific Highlands Ranch is under construction and they were even able to create space for new physical education facilities at Torrey Pines High School. The district plans to issue its second bond draw, a total of $125 million, in spring 2015. As the district readies for Series B, Dill said they are looking to shift some of the projects in their construction timeline to address the highest priorities — some projects will move up to be completed earlier, some will

be pushed back to later. “The focus is on academic buildings. (Projects such as) technology upgrades in classrooms, balancing enrollment demand with capacity at the academies and new and renovated science classrooms,” Dill said. “The idea is that academic classrooms really touch every student whereas specialty items are a little more limited. We thought it was important to get classrooms ready and focus on what Prop AA was really intended to do.” The original financing plan remains about the same for 2015, with $76 million worth of projects, but in 2016 is where there is the biggest difSee PROJECTS page 6

Del Mar property crime down in first six months of 2014 Popular Torrey Pines High School BY CITY NEWS SERVICE Violent crime in San Diego County decreased by 1 percent and property crimes by 13 percent in the first six months of this year, compared to the same period in 2013, according to statistics released Sept. 11 by the San Diego Association of Governments. A total of 5,400 violent crimes — including homicide, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault — were reported through June. The annualized rate of 3.43 per 1,000 residents is down from 3.45 in mid-2013, according to SANDAG. Sixteen of the 19 local jurisdictions experienced decreases in property crime, ranging from a 3 percent decline in La Mesa to a 37 percent drop in Del Mar. At this time last year, property crime had spiked by 5 percent compared to mid-year 2012. “There are many theories as to why we are experiencing historic drops in crime,’’ SANDAG criminal justice research Director Cynthia Burke said. “The local law enforcement officials we’ve talked to attribute some of the decreases in property crime to factors such as proactive supervision of ex-offenders, the use of forensic technology to identi-

fy serial criminals, and cross-jurisdictional sharing of intelligence to combat crime trends.’’ She said 38 homicides were recorded in the first six months of this year in San Diego County, compared to 41 in the same period last year — totals far lower than many other large metropolitan areas. But the number of rapes climbed 20 percent from last year — to 376 cases through June, Burke said. She said rape figures fluctuate from year to year, so the hike doesn’t yet appear to be a trend. Auto theft, once highly prevalent in the county, fell by 12 percent from the first six months of last year. SANDAG reported that just over 5,000 vehicles were taken through June. The number of domestic violence cases in the county climbed 4 percent to around 8,300, a total that is still down 2 percent from 2010. SANDAG, the regional planning organization, has been compiling crime data in the county for 34 years. The information helps local political leaders with policy-making decisions, according to the agency.

Fair’s run to expand by half-day in 2015 BY JOE TASH Enthusiasts who can’t wait for the San Diego County Fair will be able to get a “sneak peek” at the event on Friday, June 5, the day before the fair’s traditional Saturday morning opening, officials said. Dates for the 2015 fair were announced Tuesday, Sept. 9, at the board meeting of the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which operates the state-owned Del Mar Fairgrounds. The 22nd DAA board unanimously approved the 2015 fair dates, from 4 p.m. June 5, through Sunday, July 5. The fair will be closed on Mondays and the first two Tuesdays of its annual run. The decision to open Friday afternoon means the fair’s run will expand to 24-and-a-half days, up from 24 days this year. Officials said the decision will allow families with school-aged children to attend on Friday evening, since classes will still be in session during the daytime. 22nd DAA officials plan to announce the theme of next year’s fair at a news conference on Sept. 24.

athletic trainer may be reinstated BY KAREN BILLING Torrey Pines High School parents were recently successful in lobbying for the reinstatement of their athletic trainer Christina Scherr. The San Dieguito Union High School District contracts out for its school athletic trainers and Scherr had been released by contractor Rehab United over the summer. Parents spoke out in support of Scherr, whom they believed to be a valuable and trusted member of the athletic program. At the Sept. 4 San Dieguito Union High School District board meeting, Assistant Superintendent of Business Services Eric Dill reported that the district had worked with Rehab United to offer Scherr her position back. Dill said that on Sept. 3 he met with parent members of the Torrey Pines High School and La Costa Canyon Foundations, Torrey Pines High School Principal David Jaffe, several coaches, and Bryan Hill, the owner of Rehab United. “It was an opportunity for Mr. Hill to hear directly

the concerns the parents had. The conversation was very lively,” Dill said. At the conclusion of the meeting, Dill met with Jaffe and Hill, and Hill indicated that after hearing the parents’ voices he was open to reinstating Scherr. “Our head football coach Ron Gladnick was adamant in his support for Christina. Parents whose children had been treated by Christina over the years inundated the trustees, the district and the school with supportive emails,” said parent Tim Pickwell. “For now it appears that our concerns have been addressed and a well-respected member of the Falcon athletic community is going to be rehired. We’re very pleased.” According to Dill, the district and Rehab United are still working on some contract details and possibly removing some items from the contract that had been of concern to the parents. The funds to pay the trainers come from the Torrey Pines High School Foundation boosters and the district outsources the trainer

contracts. One big parental concern was that the district has never informed them that athletic trainers are contractually obligated to refer injured athletes to Rehab United. The athletic trainer contract with Rehab United includes an item on referrals, reading “in the event an injury screen or referral to physical therapy is necessary or advisable, the athletic trainer certified independent contractor will support Rehab United and refer students to the nearest Rehab United facility.” The contract states that Rehab United will pay the trainer 15 percent for referrals of certain services. At the San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) board’s August meeting, parent Carrie Pickwell said she would be appalled if anyone handed her a business card at the school. “It is highly unethical,” she said.

SB resident heads Parkinson’s Institute and Clinical Center

BY JOE TASH When Carrolee Barlow was appointed CEO of an organization that researches and treats Parkinson’s disease earlier this year, it was a chance for her to bring together the skills, education and experience she has accumulated over her career. “It’s very much of a coming home for me,” said Barlow, 50, a Solana Beach resident, of her appointment as CEO of the Parkinson’s Institute and Clinical Center, which is located in Sunnyvale, in the San Francisco Bay Area. Barlow, who has a medical degree from the University of Utah, as well as a Ph.D. in molecular and developmental biology from the Karolinska Medical Nobel Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, has extensive experience in research, drug development and clinical trials. At the institute, she wants to make a difference in the field of neurological diseases, focusing specifically on Parkinson’s disease, which is a progressive, degenerative condition that affects a part of the brain where movement is regulat-

ed. “To me, the largest unmet medical need is finding solutions for (diseases of) the brain,” she said. “It’s a daunting challenge.” The nonprofit institute that Barlow now heads was founded 25 years ago, and is unique, she said, because its focus is strictly on Parkinson’s, from research, to patient care, to clinical trials. The institute funds its $12 million annual budget through donations and from payments for patient care through private insurance and Medicare, Barlow said. Each year, the institute’s clinic sees about 1,000 pa-

tients from the U.S. and foreign countries, including some residents of San Diego County. “We’re sort of the Mayo Clinic for Parkinson’s,” she said. Among the most promising avenues for treatment of the disease is development of better measures of the progress of Parkinson’s, which can in turn help in creating drugs to slow down the disease’s march, Barlow said. While she and her colleagues at the institute are excited about research in Europe on treatments that involve transplants of healthy cells into Parkinson’s patients, Barlow was more cautious about an experimental transplant project now underway at the Scripps Research Institute in San Diego. Scientists and doctors have harvested skin cells from eight Parkinson’s patients and, through a complex process, converted them into brain cells that produce a chemical called dopamine. Dopamine helps the brain regulate movement in the body, and in Parkinson’s patients, the brain cells that make dopamine die off. The goal of

the Scripps project is to inject the dopamine-making cells back into the brains of the Parkinson’s patients. Barlow said researchers need to know more about the potential long-term impacts of this process. “We still don’t know enough to make sure we’re doing this safely,” she said. Parkinson’s disease affects an area in the center of the brain called the substantia nigra, which initiates movement. According to Barlow, researchers aren’t sure exactly what causes the disease, but there are apparently both genetic and environmental factors, such as toxins that can cause damage to the brain. The disease also destroys other types of nerve cells in the body, which can affect patients’ sense of smell, their gastrointestinal

tract, and even their hearts, Barlow said. A number of famous people — such as actor Michael J. Fox and former U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno — have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s, which has helped focus attention on the disease, said Barlow. In addition, following the suicide in August of comedianactor Robin Williams, Williams’ wife revealed that her husband had recently been diagnosed with early stage Parkinson’s. While many may think of Parkinson’s as a disease that affects the elderly, in fact, the average age of diagnosis is in the early 50s, Barlow said. The good news is that effective treatments do exist, including a synthetic version of dopamine. “With really good care

and intervention, you can have a long and productive life with Parkinson’s,” she said. Although she has headed the institute since mid-February, Barlow continues to split her time between Sunnyvale and Solana Beach, where she resides with her husband, researcher David Lockhart. The two met at the Salk Institute in San Diego, where both were working at the time. Along with her work at Salk, Barlow has also worked for Merck Research Laboratories, and also as chief scientific and chief medical officer for BrainCells, Inc., a biotech company she founded.

Suspected drunk driver hits ambulance near Del Mar BY CITY NEWS SERVICE A suspected drunk driver was arrested early Sept. 9 after rear-ending an ambulance on Interstate 5 near Del Mar, causing minor injuries, authorities said. A person in the ambulance called for help about 1:25 a.m. after being struck by the other vehicle in the northbound freeway lanes approaching Via De La Valle, according to the California Highway Patrol. The suspected drunken driver’s vehicle caught fire after the crash, and firefighters extinguished the blaze, according to the CHP and the San Diego FireRescue Department. A fire dispatcher said three people were taken to hospitals following the crash, but citing federal privacy laws, he did not say how many of the injured people had been in which vehicle.

Del Mar Library to celebrate 100th anniversary with special event BY KRISTINA HOUCK The San Diego County Library system celebrated its centennial last year. Now, Del Mar is marking its 100-year milestone. The Del Mar Library opened in 1914 in a strip mall that is now Del Mar Plaza. That same year, just a few blocks away, St. James Catholic Church began serving parishioners, which once included Bing Crosby, Desi Arnaz, Lucille Ball and Jimmy Durante. The two institutions eventually came together when the library found its permanent home in the former church building at 1309 Camino del Mar in 1996. “It was definitely an undertaking by the community,” recalled Gretchen Schmidt, who served as branch manager of the Del Mar Library for more than 15 years before retiring after the start of 2014. “They really wanted to have a nice library. They loved this building and they really wanted to have it belong to the city.” After the church relocated to Solana Beach, the building was sold and became a restaurant in 1966. A few decades later it was home to an insurance company before the city purchased it in 1993 to house the library, which, at the time, was located in the portable that is now City Hall Annex. The new Del Mar Library officially opened in October 1996. “It’s a beautiful building,” said Jacqueline Winterer, who served on the Del Mar City Council for four years, from 1988 to 1992, and as mayor in 1992. One of the reasons she ran for council was so she could help find a permanent home for the library, she said. “It has even more significance to me because one of my daughter’s was baptized there.” The library has undergone a few more transformations through the years, yet the original church lights hang from the ceiling. “We saved this historical building,” said Pat Freeman, president of Friends of the Del Mar Library. “It’s right downtown and it fits the community.” There used to be an open patio on the south side of the building. When the building’s roof needed to be replaced, library officials decided to also enclose the patio.

The community is invited to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the Del Mar Library from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Nov. 1. Photo by Kristina Houck Since the project was completed in 2009, the Community Room has been used for a variety of activities, from baby yoga and Zumba classes, to bridge and Friends of the Del Mar Library meetings. The library was also refurbished in the last two years. The library installed a new service desk, a laptop bar, mobile shelving units and new carpet. It also purchased new chairs and tables for the roughly 5,000-square-foot branch. The renovation project was a joint effort between the county, city and the Friends of the Del Mar Library. “It’s because of the Friends that we have this building and that we’ve made changes to this building,” said Freeman, who has been with the group since its inception in 1982. “And the Friends represents community support.” A new branch manager has also come on board within the last year. Having worked for the San Diego County Library for 15 years, Polly Cipparrone was appointed branch manager of Del Mar Library after Schmidt retired in January. She said she is looking forward to continuing the

branch’s relationship with its customers and growing the library programs. “A lot of it is building on the legacy of all the things that Gretchen put in place,” said Cipparrone. Through the branch’s relationship with the Del Mar Foundation, she noted the two institutions launched a new book club over the summer. “I’d like to keep those strong bonds and just find new ways to re-imagine relationships.” Entering its 100th year, the Del Mar Library stood as strong as ever. In the 2013-14 fiscal year, the local branch had the second highest per capita circulation in the San Diego County Library system — 33 branches and two bookmobiles. The branch’s 80,172 visitors checked out 166,396 items, including digital books. “The Del Mar Library has been many things over the last 100 years, but never has it gone forgotten,” said San Diego County Library Director José Aponte. “On the site of an old church, and former restaurant this dynamic library is open, accessible and remodeled for success. With a little help from our partners in the city, community, and most importantly our Del Mar Library Friends, the library has been reroofed, expanded and, most recently, redesigned for customer satisfaction. We embrace our continued reputation as bona fide signature building and library sanctuary at heart of this dynamic city with a view.” The community is invited to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the Del Mar Library from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Nov. 1. The event will feature a noon concert and an appearance from Sparkles the Clown. San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts, Del Mar Mayor Lee Haydu and County Library Deputy Director Donna Ohr will be among those in attendance.

Del Mar couple visits 50 states in celebration of 50th anniversary BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although Howard and Barbara Anderson celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on Aug. 1, they have marked the milestone for more than a year. To commemorate 50 years, the Del Mar couple is visiting all 50 states. “He’s the romantic,” said Barbara Anderson, as she smiled at her husband. “I give him all the credit. He’s always been one to want to make our anniversary special.” The couple launched their more than yearlong trip on their 49th anniversary, with an American Queen Riverboat cruise of the Ohio River, where they visited the first four states — Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia and Pennsylvania. “It was very relaxing,” Howard Anderson said. “There were only about 400 people on the boat. It was fun.” Following the riverboat cruise in August 2013, the couple visited seven states on the East Coast in September, followed by Utah and Wyoming in October, Hawaii in November and California in December. In February 2014, the couple vacationed in Utah and Colorado, toured the southwest in March, the South in April, Alaska in June and the Midwest in July. The Andersons recently returned from their 11th trip, where they visited Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana Aug. 12-25. The couple packs their bags again Sept. 20 through Oct. 2 when they visit Maryland, New Jersey, Delaware and Virginia. Howard and Barbara will visit the last three states during their 13th and final trip in November. They plan to land in Kansas, travel through Oklahoma and end their celebration in Texas with the celebration of a new marriage — the wedding of Barbara’s nephew and his fiancée. “We’re taking just over a year to do it because we can make up the rules,” said Barbara with a laugh. It was Howard who came up with the idea to visit all 50 states for the couple’s 50th anniversary. “I thought he surely meant just the ones we’d never been to,” Barbara Anderson said. “Not all 50!” While every trip has been special, Barbara’s favorite has

Courtesy photo been the couple’s trip to the South, as it was their first time visiting that part of the country. The couple tried soft-shell crab for the first time. They visited historic Civil War sites. They also saw the Outer Banks, a 200-mile long string of narrow barrier islands off the coast of North Carolina. “You hear about that area and you read about it in novels,” she said. “To see that was really neat.” Howard’s favorite trip was the couple’s trip to Alaska, which included a dog sled ride. By the time the couple finishes visiting the 50th state, they will have traveled 52,000 miles, which includes 37,500 miles by plane, 13,000 miles by car and 1,500

miles by train, boat or bus. The figure does not include the five miles the Andersons traveled by an all-terrain vehicle and two miles by a dog sled in Alaska. “That’s twice around the world,” Howard Anderson said. The long hours and many miles have given the Andersons the opportunity to spend quality time with each other — and plenty of time to talk. After all, communication is one of the keys to a long and healthy marriage, Barbara Anderson said. “It’s a chance to talk about things and experience new things together,” Howard Anderson said. Howard and Barbara Anderson were children when they met. Their families attended the same church in San Diego. The pair started dating as teenagers and married a couple of years later. Howard was 20 and Barbara was 18 years old. “We like to say we grew up together,” Barbara said. “A lot of people grow apart when they get married that young. But if you can grow together, you have just that much stronger a foundation.” The Andersons have lived in Del Mar for nearly 45 years. They have two adult sons and two granddaughters.

they wanted to make sure that any company bidding on the micro-brewery proposal has no business ties to any member of the board. “We want to do this in a way that passes every smell test,” said Schenk in an interview after the meeting. In spite of the board’s efforts to avoid any potential conflicts of interest related to the micro-brewery proposal, at least one member felt the board had not gone far enough. Director David Watson, who also voted against the request for proposals in June, cast the lone opposing vote Tuesday. “I think the process is irreparably tainted. I don’t see how we can go forward with a micro-brewery at this time,” said Watson, a landuse attorney. Watson also said he was concerned that smaller, local companies would not be able to compete for the contract with larger national

brands. The proposal calls for a brewing company to pay the district at least $1.5 million over five years to lease the fairgrounds micro-brewery, which would be built inside the Surfside Race Place, a satellite wagering facility at the northeast corner of the fairgrounds. The 22md DAA would spend up to $1 million on construction of the project, which would include the craft brewery, a restaurant, tasting room and brewing museum. The district plans to award the contract to the qualified company with the highest bid, officials said. Small businesses would be given a preference, allowing them to bid 5 percent less. “That’s being fair and will encourage more local breweries to participate in the process,” said director Stephen Shewmaker, who is heading up the effort to find a new use for the satellite wagering facility. Schenk said he is confident that major San Diego craft brew players such as

In 2016, the district also plans to design the second classroom building for Middle School No. 5, to be ready to construct if needed in 2017-19. Russell Thornton, the high school district’s chief facilities officer, gave an overview of the various projects that began this busy summer. Local school projects included: At Earl Warren Middle School, demolition of Warren Hall was complete in three days and they are digging footings now for the new data center. At Torrey Pines High School, the new weight room should be complete in November — the site of the old weight room will be the new science building. Over the summer they

As of August, 93 brew houses were operating in San Diego County, according to West Coaster, an online publication that tracks San Diego’s craft brew industry. An additional 42 breweries are planned. In North County alone, nearly 40 breweries and brew pubs are up and run-

ning, according to National University. At Thursday’s meeting, district staff said the request for proposals will be released to the industry this month, and it will take two to three months to evaluate the proposals, depending on how many are submitted. The contract would have to be approved both by the 22nd DAA board and state officials. Before the proposals are submitted, interested companies will be asked to attend a mandatory meeting at which the project will be

completed work on a new fire lane, stadium lights and on the PA system — it works so well they already heard from several neighbors about hearing all the action from Friday night’s football game. At Torrey Pines, the district was able to find new PE space “out of nothing” when they worked on cutting the access road and dug out $20,000 worth of soil. Instead of spending $20,000 to haul away the dirt, they were able to fill a slope and pick up a half-acre of land. It will be enough room for a whole new play field, Thornton said. Addleman said they are also working on making Del Mar Heights Road the official entry for Torrey Pines High School with better student access and a landscape renovation. At Canyon Crest Academy (CCA), the big summer project was the balance of the stadium and athletic fields. A new play field is expected to be complete in two weeks, By October CCA will have practice baseball fields and the varsity baseball fields will be complete in February.

At neighboring Middle School 5, Thornton said it changes daily as work progresses quickly on the new 22-story classroom building that will be ready to welcome students by fall 2015. During public comment, Steven McDowell, a candidate for the SDUHSD board, challenged the board about a San Diego County Grand Jury Report that seeks to establish criteria to help voters on bond financing. “Voters need and deserve clear, concise school bond information from the school districts in order to make informed decisions concerning what projects they need to be funded and whether or not the school district is making sound fiduciary decisions,” McDowell said. He was looking for information such as the exact upper limit of the amount borrowed, the maximum interest rate and the repayment schedule. He said the district has also failed to indicate whether it intends to issue bonds again at a premium. At the meeting, Dill said the district would follow all the rules in place in

tive in budgeting. The assistant superintendents’ contracts were also renewed, again with Salazar voting against them.

TRAINER continued from page 2 Dill said parents should be able to go and seek any treatment for their children as they deem appropriate and that they district always suggests treatment begins with the family’s personal physician. SDUHSD Trustee Amy Herman said the referrals shouldn’t be so prescripted and perhaps some disclosure was warranted. “The whole experience did educate many of us to the nuts-and-bolts of how

athletic trainers are hired and managed in the district,” Tim Pickwell said. Pickwell suggested that the district convene a meeting with athletic directors, trainers, coaches and assess the best way to deliver athletic training services, study how other districts do it and whether SDUHSD’s contracts should be adjusted. Dill said that it is a good idea because the level of service has changed since they began the athletic trainer program, including the scope of services, the size of the athletic programs and a dramatic increase in the number of athletes they were serving. He said the district would take a fresh look at

discussed, a tour of the satellite wagering facility will be held, and officials will also determine if any of the companies have business ties with 22nd DAA board members, which would disqualify them from bidding on the project, officials said. If the process moves forward as planned, Schenk said, the micro-brewery could be up and running by June 5, the start of the 2015 San Diego County Fair. “Certainly, that’s a goal,” he said.

response to the Grand Jury Report. He reported that Series B would have a debt service of $242 million and a payback ratio of 1.93:1. Dill said that assessed property values leveled out during the recession but saw an uptick in 2013. The highest tax rate projected for this year is $25; the average tax rate is $24.73. “The San Diego County Property Tax Services told us that the tax rate is sufficient to cover our debt service,” Dill said. Next steps for the district include reviewing proposed projects, reviewing assessed value assumptions and determining bonding capacity for the next and future series. A first step will be preparing request for proposals for its financing team. “We want to make sure with every issuance we have the most qualified firms at the best price,” Dill said. After bonds are issued in the spring, the district hopes to start construction on another busy summer in 2015. the program, much like it is doing with the enrollment at the academies. Several parents said they were told not to attend the Sept. 4 SDUHSD board meeting to discuss the Scherr issue as a resolution was close. During public comment, Mo Muir, a candidate for the SDUHSD board, said she was glad the district met with parents but she felt it would’ve been more appropriate to have had a larger forum, such as a community meeting, where more parents could attend. She reiterated the need for the district to continue looking into the athletic trainer contracts.

Top Paralympic skier to speak at Dia Del Sol fashion show benefit • Beach and Country Guild’s 45th annual Dia Del Sol will be held Oct. 14 in support of United Cerebral Palsy of San Diego County BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although she has modeled at the fundraising event in the past, this year Katrina Schaber is dropping the designer duds and sharing her success on the slopes during the Beach and Country Guild’s 45th annual Dia Del Sol on Oct. 14, which benefits United Cerebral Palsy of San Diego County. “It’s been amazing to be involved with Dia Del Sol,” said Katrina, who has cerebral palsy. From competing in local ski races to the World Cup stage, Katrina brought home six medals this season, including one gold. “It helps raise awareness about cerebral palsy and helps raise funds so that United Cerebral Palsy can continue to do research.” Katrina first skied when she was just 4 years old. Now 17, she recently placed in the top 10 in the World Cup circuit — her first endeavor — and is now ranked third in the United States Paralympic Alpine Skiing Women’s Standing Division. “It’s just been crazy this past season,” said Katrina, a senior at Canyon Crest Academy. “It’s been a whirlwind of adventures, and every time I click into my skis, I have a feeling I can do more and I can push it more.” With her eyes now on the Pyeongchang 2018 Paralympic Winter Games, Katrina is taking time off from studying and training to share her story during Dia Del Sol. “She is a huge proponent of Dia Del Sol,” said guild president Kristin Baldi. “She says wonderful things about the guild and how being involved in the fashion show gave her the confidence to pursue her dream. Now she’s on the Paralympic team and has won a bunch of medals.” The guild has supported United Cerebral Palsy for 45 years. From assisting someone in finding their first job, to creating support groups for families, United Cerebral Palsy’s mission is to advance the independence, productivity and full citizenship of people affected by cerebral palsy. “It is such a great organization,” Baldi said. “They are really focused on the cause and really impact people’s lives.

Courtesy photo Katrina is just one example of the many they have impacted.” With a “Speakeasy” theme, this year’s event will feature a gourmet luncheon, silent and live auctions, and a fashion show with several local designers and boutiques, including C. Wonder, Halston, Maggie B, Mister B, Max Mara, Nicole Miller, Scotch and Soda, and Ted Baker. There will also be a children’s fashion show, featuring children with cerebral palsy. Live auction items include a six-night stay at a Baja California resort, seven-night Mediterranean cruise, a jet flight and wine tasting experience in Napa Valley, dinner for six pre-

pared by Rancho Santa Fe Firefighters at the station, a cocktail soiree for 20, and more. “You get to have fun and you get to do something good,” Baldi said. Dia Del Sol takes place from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 14 at The Grand Del Mar, 5300 Grand Del Mar Court, San Diego. Tickets cost $150 for general seating and $250 for Champagne Circle seating. Attendees who purchase tickets by Sept. 19 will receive two entries for door prizes. Those who register after Sept. 19 but by Oct. 5 will receive one entry.

Del Mar pedestrian killed by Coaster train BY CITY NEWS SERVICE Authorities released the name Sept. 8 of a 49-year-old man who was fatally struck over the weekend by a passenger train near Torrey Pines State Beach. Michael North of Del Mar was walking between the rails south of the intersection of Carmel Valley Road and North Torrey Pines Road when the northbound Amtrak locomotive approached from behind shortly before 11:30 a.m. Sept. 7, according to sheriff’s officials and the county Medical Examiner’s Office. “The train operator activated its horn and emergency braking system but was unable to stop before striking the victim,” Deputy Dawn Morabe said. North died at the scene. The train conductor told investigators North had been walking with two companions who safely moved out of the way. Rail service in the area was delayed about two hours, according to transit officials.

BY KAREN BILLING Many people spend months, even years, to write a novel. Carmel Valley teenager Lily Nilipour was able to craft a 50,000-word novel in one month last year. Her novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Mistake the Ashes for Dust,â&#x20AC;? offers insights into life as an adolescent. In the past Lily, a 15-year-old sophomore at Torrey Pines High School, wrote fantasy, but this book was her first departure into a new genre. She outgrew the dragons and has gone more into reality. Lily has been writing for as long as she can remember. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It started out as a hobby, but in sixth grade, I had a really good teacher and she inspired me to continue to write,â&#x20AC;? Lily said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when I began to have a true passion for writing.â&#x20AC;? That special teacher for Lily was Julia Hinton at Torrey Hills Elementary School and from that point on Lily spent every bit of her few spare moments of time writing stories and poems. Last year a friend informed her about a program as part of National Novel Writing Month. If young authors could pen 50,000 words in the month of November, as a reward they would get two free copies of their published works. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just wanted to see if I could reach such a big amount of pages and words,â&#x20AC;? Lily said. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;NaNoWriMoâ&#x20AC;? program helps students with support from fellow writers, track their progress and develop a schedule for work â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for Lily that meant a goal to reach 2,000 words a day. Despite a packed schedule, Lily was able to accomplish the challenge and then went through the editing process, designed a book cover and published the book through CreateSpace. The book was published in June. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was really rewarding when it was published and to see it in my hand,â&#x20AC;? Lily said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was really cool.â&#x20AC;? Lily describes her bookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tone as â&#x20AC;&#x153;mellow and melancholy.â&#x20AC;? She left the main character ambiguous, without a name or identity â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the plot follows what happens after she meets a unique girl at school, the girl who reminds her of ashes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The feeling that emits from her, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like that nostalgic feeling you get when you see the sunset over the ocean, and the light just glistens perfectly on the rippling water. It makes you feel tired, satisfied and wistful,â&#x20AC;? wrote Lily. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You feel like you could just be carried away by the lightest wind like a feather or a particle of dust. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I mean when I say she reminded me of ashes.â&#x20AC;? One review on Amazon cites the readerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite paragraph of Lilyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 50,000 words: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because when you cannot see the light halfway into a

Lily wrote. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And, though heading back to the start will grant you reassuring light and color that you are used to, that light and color will get you nowhere.â&#x20AC;? Lilyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite subject in school is English and she recently joined the staff of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s award-winning newspaper, The Falconer. She also stays busy playing the piano and playing on the school tennis team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully I will find the time to work on another novel,â&#x20AC;? Lily said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Mistake the Ashes for Dustâ&#x20AC;? is available on Amazon.com.

Rocker Steven Tyler to perform at Ronald McDonald Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual gala BY KATHY DAY Talk to Jennifer Gramins about Ronald McDonald Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual gala, Le Cirque du ROMP, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have no doubt sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s excited about the sold-out event featuring Steven Tyler as guest artist. Yes, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Steven Tyler of rock and roll fame, the always spirited leader of Aerosmith and former â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Idolâ&#x20AC;? judge, who will be fresh off the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Let Rock Ruleâ&#x20AC;?World Tour stop in Nova Scotia when he plays for the fifth annual ROMP fundraiser. Gramins, a local resident and the gala chair, had just left the private club in La Jolla where the Sept. 20 party will be held when she shared details about the gathering of 400 supporters of Ronald McDonald House located across from Rady Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital. The event is the largest fundraiser for the facility, which gives families a spot to rest or stay for free while their children are facing life-threatening illnesses. Last year the event brought in $690,000, and Gramins said the goal is always to raise more than the prior year. At this point in the party planning, she says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s optimistic theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll achieve that. In the last year alone, Ronald McDonald House served 125,000 family members and was full 96 percent of the time with families who were lodged in private guest suites, according to CEO Chuck Day. Some stay for a few days, which others stay for months at a time. On top of that, the Family Care Center served 150,000

Steven Tyler Photo courtesy of www.rmhcsd.org meals and provided a place for a break from the hospital between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. All of the visitors receive not just meals or a spot to cook their own meals, but access to a

computer room, rooftop courtyards, recreation areas and exercise facilities. Ronald McDonald House also offers educational programs and classes for both parents and siblings of the ill child. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a chapel and a free hair salon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To me, what Ronald McDonald House does is beyond words,â&#x20AC;? Gramins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a healthy child and realize how lucky I am. If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anything I can do for those not so lucky, I will.â&#x20AC;? Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been involved with the gala for four years, but this is her first time chairing it, with Rebecca Moores and Jennifer Moores as honorary chairs. Pulling together a party

for 400 takes a lot of work, but with so many volunteers and sponsors who return each year, the job is a bit simpler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The staff helps us so much, and the support we get is wonderful,â&#x20AC;? Gramins said, acknowledging â&#x20AC;&#x153;there are a lot of moving parts.â&#x20AC;? From planning a VIP meet-and-greet with Tyler before the main event and lining up â&#x20AC;&#x153;an amazing chefâ&#x20AC;? and auction items, the event takes many hours and tons of dedication. But picking a theme came naturally, she said, because â&#x20AC;&#x153;we have a tent.â&#x20AC;? So the cirque/circus theme was given to the event designer who has been running with the creative details, though Gramins concedes sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s given some ideas to the designer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We picked the theme early so it gave us time and leeway to do something with a different flair,â&#x20AC;? she said. Tyler just adds that extra flair to ROMP, which will also feature other entertainment that is still being finalized. As the date approaches, Gramins said selling out wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a concern but being in an â&#x20AC;&#x153;oversoldâ&#x20AC;? position was a bit of a concern. The entertainment isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only excitement of the night. Guests also can bid on an array of silent auction items and live auction treats, such as a Kona Estate getaway for 29, the chance to have a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ferrari of your very own â&#x20AC;Ś for a weekendâ&#x20AC;? and a private jet to Napa and dinner for six at the French Laundry. Gramins, who learned about Ronald McDonald House while living in Chicago, met Mary Drake when she moved to Rancho Santa Fe. Drank chaired the event in 2011 and has recruited many in her footsteps to make ROMP an evening to remember â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and one that goes a long way toward helping Ronald McDonald House in its mission to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;home away from home for families with critically ill or injured children in local hospitals.â&#x20AC;? For those who havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bought a ticket but want to help, ROMP is accepting auction donations until Sept. 18. Go to http://tinyurl.com/nkpaxk8.

‘Bringing the community together’ a key goal for new Solana Beach Library manager BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although Patricia Tirona officially became branch manager of Solana Beach Library in June, she is a familiar face at the local library. Tirona first joined the local branch when it opened its current location in 2001. “I feel like I’ve been apprenticing for this all these years,” Tirona said. “When you work in a field for so long, you can see how you’d like to see things done and you can see what works. And with the county, you get a lot of classes, coaching, training and teambuilding. So even though this is my first time as branch manager, I’ve been a supervisor a long time.” Born on the East Coast, Tirona grew up in Solana Beach. She attended Earl Warren Middle School and San Dieguito High School Academy. Following high school, she went to Palomar College before transferring to San Diego State University, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in business administration. Tirona worked as a computer programmer for almost a decade until she decided to be a stay-at-home mother of three. Once her children were grown, she took a job as a library clerk at Carlsbad City Library, where her son also worked at the time. It wasn’t her first time working at a library. Tirona had worked at the Palomar College Library when she attended the campus. Both her mother and sister previously worked at the library as well. In 2001, the Solana Beach Library opened its current location on Stevens Avenue. When Tirona learned a new library would be opening in her hometown at her former school, she applied for a job before the branch opened its doors. She was hired as a library technician at the new branch. “It was a goal of mine,” she said. “It was a dream come true.” While at the branch, Tirona began working on her master’s of library and information science from San Jose State, which she completed while working at the Vista branch, where she served for two years. Shortly after, she was promoted to youth librarian at the Solana Beach Library in 2006, a position she held for eight years. “It was a wonderful circle of life,” she said. Tirona became the interim branch manager shortly after the start of 2014, when former Branch Manager Sheila Crosby transferred to Encinitas. “I love to serve,” Tirona said. “My job offers me the chance to touch people’s lives, and that is incredibly rewarding. Creating a sense of community among our customers, including the students, is especially satisfying.” The Solana Beach Library is shared with Earl Warren Middle School — and it’s the kids that make the branch so special, Tirona said. Eight years ago, Tirona launched Reading Challenge, with the support of the school and funds from the Friends of the Solana Beach Library, Del Mar-Solana Beach Optimist Club and Parent Teacher Student Association. The program encourages students to recreationally read. Those who read more than 1,000 pages in one semester get to attend a party at the li-

Patricia Tirona brary in lieu of English class for one day. Those who read more than 10,000 pages also receive a $15 Barnes & Noble gift card. The program also recognizes the top reader. So many students participated last year, Tirona said the library did not have enough space to fit the students. “We get a good turn out,” she said. “I’m real proud of that.” As the new branch manager, Tirona said she is looking forward to continuing the branch’s relationship with its customers and growing the library programs, which include programs for students such as Reading

Challenge, as well as a variety of programs for the community, from an adult bridge club to a knitting class. “It’s not just about books, it’s about bringing the community together,” she said. Her promotion also coincides with the complete reconstruction of Earl Warren Middle School, a $41 million project that kicked off over the summer. The district launched the project in August with the demolition of Warren Hall, the school’s multipurpose room, as well as the blacktop behind the campus and the cafeteria, known as “Lola’s Place.” Representatives from San Diego County, San Dieguito Union High School District, the city of Solana Beach and Friends of the Solana Beach Library recently met to discuss plans for the shared-use library on the campus. Although design plans are being finalized, plans reportedly include new study rooms, a community room and an expanded bookstore for the Friends of the Library. “When we have the new configuration, hopefully, it will be a situation where everybody will be satisfied,” she said. “My goal is to see it come to fruition where we can have all of these services for the community and also serve the people who would like a quiet place to go, so that all members of the community are happy.” For more information about the Solana Beach Library, visit http://sdcl.org/locations_SB.html.

New rabbi brings unique experience to Chabad of Carmel Valley BY KRISTINA HOUCK For more than 20 years, Rabbi Mendel Polichenco has served the people of Mexico. Recently selected as the new rabbi of Chabad of Carmel Valley, he will now serve people on the San Diego side of the border. “I’ve traveled all over Latin America and Europe, so I understand the philosophy of Chabads. It’s the largest Jewish organization in the world,” Polichenco said. “We want to bring a lot of growth to the community.” The synagogue has already seen growth. About 15 people attended the first Friday Shabbat services Polichenco led several weeks ago. By the next week, the number had grown to 40, which more than doubled to 100 people the following week. “We’re growing very nicely,” Polichenco said. “That’s our goal — to grow and get people involved.” Born in Argentina, Polichenco knew he wanted to be a rabbi at a very young age. He began attending a Jewish day school when he was 3 years old. His father, a rabbi, founded the school. “There were many Jewish day schools in Buenos Aires and he didn’t like any of them, so he started his own,” Polichenco recalled. When he was 13, Polichenco started attending yeshiva, a Jewish high school. His father also established the school. “This is an age where you decide if you’re going to be a rabbi or not,” he said. “The training starts at 13.” After high school, Polichenco earned his bachelor’s degree in rabbinical studies from the Rabbinical College of America in New Jersey in 1990. He was ordained three years later at Kfar Chabad in Israel. Soon after he was ordained, Polichenco became the rabbi for the Jewish Community of Tijuana, making him the first official representative of the Chabad movement in Mexico. A few months later, he married Nechama Dina. Today, he and his wife of 20 years have five children, ages 16, 14, 11, 7 and 3. “We have a very vibrant community in Tijuana,” said Polichenco, who later went on to receive a master’s degree

Rabbi Mendel Polichenco in organizational development at Ibero Americana University in México in 2001. As rabbi, Polichenco founded the first and only Jewish Day School in the state of Baja in 1997, which remained open for seven years. He also opened a mikve, a Kosher restaurant, bakery and catering service, which is still operating today. In Tijuana, Polichenco led daily services, special holiday programs and an adult education program. He also organized and directed an overnight summer camp and bar and bat mitzvah groups. Polichenco expanded his activities in Baja by founding and directing Chabad Without Borders.

This program established Chabad branches in Cabo San Lucas and La Paz. In 2004, he also founded and directed Chabad in Chula Vista. Polichenco currently oversees the Chabad branches in Mexico and Chula Vista, in addition to Carmel Valley. “I enjoy teaching and seeing people apply their knowledge in their day-to-day life,” Polichenco said. “Lessons are always practical. They can improve your life on a daily basis.” As the new rabbi of Chabad of Carmel Valley, Polichenco wants to grow the community. He also hopes to eventually build a facility. Currently, the local Chabad rents a space at San Diego Jewish Academy for its

services. “The mission is to educate and to give passion for Judaism,” he said. “Our goal is to also have a physical location.” Polichenco invited the community to Chabad of Carmel Valley for Shabbat services and upcoming High Holiday services. Shabbat services are held at San Diego Jewish Academy’s Ulam room, located at 11860 Carmel Creek Road at 6:30 p.m. on Fridays and 10 a.m. Saturdays. “I would like to be a resource for the community,” he added. “I’m available.” For more information, visit www. chabadcv.com.

Interim director hired for San Dieguito River Park Directors of the San Dieguito River Park Joint Powers Authority voted Sept. 2 to hire Mark Ochenduszko as interim executive director of the agency. “Mr. Ochenduszko brings tremendous experience to the position,” said Supervisor Dave Roberts, chairman of the river park’s Board of Directors. “I look forward to working with him as we continue to improve this great, regional asset.” The 55-mile-long park stretches from the beach at Del Mar to the river’s L-R: Supervisor Dave Roberts, Mark headswaters on Volcan Mountain near Ochenduszko and Del Mar City Councilman Julian. Don Mosier. Ochenduszko will replace Dick Bobertz, who is retiring after many years of service to the river park. Ochenduszkco served as interim city manager for the city of Del Mar in 2010 and previously held the city manager’s post in Coronado, Cypress and Campbell. His first day as interim executive director of the river park is Oct. 1.

CCA grad mastermind of new online music service BY ROB LEDONNE Sajan Sanghvi was merely in his freshman year at UCLA when he had an idea. “I was always thinking about creating an application that sources music from every major music platform,” he explained. “I was still an amateur since I had only taken two quarters of computer science classes at UCLA, but I wanted to figure out a way to program something like that.” Sanghvi then recruited his friend, Ryan McCurdy (who both graduated from Canyon Crest Academy in 2013), and the two budding application developers masterminded SoundWave, a service that aggregates a variety of online music services into one slick platform. “What originally inspired me was the fact that music services right now don’t cater to lesser- known artists,” said Sanghvi, who is a musician himself. “There are so many talented artists out there that deserve more spotlight, and SoundWave is something that could be that very spotlight.” SoundWave, which will be available on the Mac ap store on Oct. 30, compiles music from places such as YouTube, SoundCloud and Spotify regardless of popularity. Songs chosen for a playlist could have thousands of previous views, or just five or six. “You can search by song, artist or genre, and SoundWave spits out a variety of different results,” Sanghvi said. “You can find

Sajan Sanghvi (left) and Ryan McCurdy (right). Courtesy photo anyone, like if they’re just a DJ at home with only a few fans.” Once SoundWave is released, it will be completely free to download and use. There is also no need for accounts, subscription fees, or even ads, so a Kickstarter was recently launched with the goal of raising $35,000 by Sunday, Sept. 25, to support the service. “Music and engineering is my passion, and I won’t really be able to work on this application if I continue with UCLA,” explained Sanghvi, who could start his sophomore year at the university in October. “I want credibility, and show that I’m dedicated to this. The money raised from Kickstarter would pay for staff, continue development, and for coding the application for Windows, Andriod and iPhone.” Until the application’s late October launch for Mac’s OS X ap store, Sanghvi and his team will continue to be hard at work perfecting the service. “We’re trying to target the smaller 10 percent of artists who are trying to get their music out there,” said Sanghvi, who envisions a SoundWave future promoting official shows and having artists and musicians pay for the promotion of their songs. Sanghvi, summed up his plea in a recent press release. “We know music,” he pledged. “We believe we can make the music experience better for everyone.” For more on SoundWave, or to donate to Kickstarter, check out http://soundwavesd.com.

No longer â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Invisibleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;: Actor depicts stories of 10 homeless people BY JOE TASH The manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hands shook from alcohol withdrawal when he approached Jerry Hager one evening to ask for a handout. Hager was so moved by the manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honesty â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he candidly admitted he would use the money to buy liquor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that Hager gave him some cash and chatted with him for a few minutes, as his family waited nearby. That experience resulted in a vignette Hager will perform on Sept. 13 and 14 at the Vine Theater in Rancho Bernardo as part of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Invisible,â&#x20AC;? a one-man show depicting the lives of 10 different homeless people. The performance marks the final weekend of the theaterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual summer series, now in its seventh year. Artistic Director Faith Jensen-Ismay uses the summer event to bring a variety of different dance troupes to the intimate theater on the grounds of the Bernardo Winery. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jerryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work involves body language and how the body moves. It complements what we do,â&#x20AC;? said Jensen-Ismay, who also oversees the Mojalet Dance Collective, a school and dance company. Hager, a mime, performance artist and story-teller who has entertained for decades around San Diego County, including work with schools and a long-running engagement as a roving performer at the San Diego County Fair, is returning to the Vine summer series for the fourth time. In â&#x20AC;&#x153;Invisible,â&#x20AC;? Hager uses masks, costumes, voice, movement and music to tell stories of his characters, some of which are based on real people, and others who are purely fictional.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a subject that had been lingering in my heart and my spirit for some time,â&#x20AC;? said Hager of the upcoming one-man show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes we will walk past people and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see them â&#x20AC;Ś because of ideas that we think they are.â&#x20AC;? While many homeless people do suffer from mental or physical disabilities, or drug addiction, their stories actually go much deeper and defy stereotypes, Hager said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not really doing a show to address the homeless issue. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the answers to that. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing a show about 10 people and who they are. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to take the cover off the book and get into the pages.â&#x20AC;? The hour-long show centers on a developer who leaves his cellphone and keys on a rock while examining a potential building site, only to come back and find theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve disappeared. A homeless person approaches and offers to lead him back to his belongings. Hager said the story is based on an incident that a family member experienced. The characters include Penny, a 15-year-old runaway; Mitch, a man with cerebral palsy; George, who is mentally ill and possibly dangerous; and Jimmy, a paranoid thief. The show also includes an older woman who lives in a homeless encampment and acts as a motherly figure for Mitch. Using a collection of half-masks and his skills of vocal impression, Hager will transform himself into each of the characters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can give each one a personality, their own voice in words, their own sound and their own look through the mask,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are real people for me.â&#x20AC;?

Jerry Hager describing a character from his show, as he holds up the mask for that character. Hager and Vine Theater Artistic Director Faith Jensen-Ismay. The theater seats 48, and Hager will perform the show three times â&#x20AC;&#x201D; at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday, and at 2 p.m. Sunday. Hager ordered the masks for this show from a Chicago mask-maker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a power of mystery and magic that goes with masked theater. It really gets the juices flowing for me,â&#x20AC;? he said. He and Jensen-Ismay, the theaterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artistic director, have known each other since the late 1980s, when they worked together on an artistic program for local schools.

They have since collaborated on a number of shows. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something about the simplicity and authenticity that makes Jerryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work so great,â&#x20AC;? she said. General admission tickets for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Invisibleâ&#x20AC;? are $16, and tickets for seniors or students are $11. Call 858243-1402 for reservations, or buy tickets online at www.mojalet.com.

Letters to the editor/Opinion Support for One Paseo This debate has too often become monopolized by the loud and abrasive voices of those who not only oppose One Paseo, but really oppose any change or growth within our community. In the most recent planning board meeting we heard negative comments such as residents of Carmel Valley “don’t like to walk” in their community and more residential development means more “unwanted” people would live in Carmel Valley. This sort of narrow mindedness and resistance to smart growth belongs to the voices of a small minority that are simply anti-anything. I have read parts of the EIR, attended planning board meetings, read many letters to the editor, and talked about this project with my neighbors. It seems that Kilroy has effectively addressed all the complaints while maintaining the character of their mixed use development. The density has decreased, the traffic issues mostly mitigated, and the streetscape softened. In addition, the developers will be adding many infrastructure upgrades to the community with far-reaching benefits beyond the small foot print of One Paseo A project like One Paseo is necessary and a good fit for our community. Carmel Valley is a highly desirable place to live and raise a family. With the influx of people looking to become a part of our community comes a need for increased dining and shopping options as well as housing options. One Paseo was designed to provide all of that while blending into the heart of our community. On the one hand, a previous proposal to put “Big Box” stores at this site was rightfully shot down. On the other hand, adding another cluster of office buildings in this prime central location adds nothing to our community. Adhering rigidly to a 30-year-old community plan is the wrong approach to our rapidly changing region. It has been a long time since Carmel Valley was farmland and it is time to recognize that it already is a densely populated, truly suburban mixed use tract. I look forward to taking my family to a place where we can grab dinner, watch a movie, or browse a farmers market. All these amenities will be close enough to reach on foot or bike – providing options that allow people to be less dependent on their car. Residents will be less likely to leave Carmel Valley to seek their entertainment while creating jobs locally, increasing the tax base, and taking cars off our freeways. Howard Bear Carmel Valley resident

One Paseo: The tide has turned! Thank you Carmel Valley, for your great turnout at the Aug. 28 Carmel Valley Planning Board meeting. More than 400 of you attended to voice your opposition to this One Paseo, many of you standing for hours to add your applause as we exposed Kilroy’s many incorrect statements and exaggerations. And once again prevailed on them to propose a smaller mixed use project, reiterating the key question: Does it really serve our community to accept 1.2 million square feet of additional office towers and residential units-- over 80 percent of this One Paseo proposal — just to add the new shopping, dining and entertainment choices we want? Inside the auditorium not only did the more than 400 “NO on THIS One Paseo” badges far outnumber One Paseo’s pretty blue support ones, but it was quickly clear to all that most of theirs were worn by Kilroy employees, paid consultants, and hopeful contractors. The audience continually questioned (and often ridiculed) the credibility of Kilroy’s stream of consultants, while waves of applause accompanied Supervisor Dave Roberts and the What Price Main Street speakers. Their criticisms of Kilroy’s weak defense of the negative impacts of this proposed over-building loudly resonated with the majority. And as the meager support for this One Paseo dissipated, Kilroy supporters who submitted speaker slips disappeared into the night, name after name being called with no response, while a steady stream of opposition speakers garnered more crowd applause. As to Kilroy’s accusations that some of What Price Main Street’s signatures are “from other states and countries,” we will gladly present our over 4,000 unique signatures from 92130 and 92014 residents and businesses for audit, and challenge you Kilroy to do the same if you really have the support you claim. Once again, thank you Carmel Valley community for emphatically expressing your opposition to this One Paseo. Our collective goal continues to be to compel Kilroy to listen to the community, rein in their dreams of mega-profits, and come back to the Planning Board with a similar high-quality, mixed-use project in a smaller scale with far less of the elements we don’t value. One that better fits our community character and ability to absorb the increased traffic.

How Carmel Valley really feels I was thrilled to see how many people attended the Aug. 28 Carmel Valley Planning Board meeting to express their opposition to Kilroy’s One Paseo project. County Supervisor Dave Roberts even showed up to voice his concerns. It was inspiring to see the community united against this project. To see everyone in the community make the effort to come to out to this meeting on the Thursday before a long weekend and on a back-to-school night speaks volumes about how deeply the community would like to see something smaller on this site. I think it is safe to say that Kilroy can no longer make any credible claim that their interests reflect the will of the greater Carmel Valley community. This demonstration of opposition, from the hundreds that packed the auditorium and spilled over outside to those who spoke passionately about this project’s impacts, proves the community’s true opposition to this project. One only had to look around the auditorium and see Kilroy and its consultants, squeezed into the front of the auditorium and completely engulfed by a crowd of Carmel Valley residents wearing “No On THIS One Paseo” buttons, to know where the community stands. I am committed to stand with my community again in opposition to the current One Paseo project at the Sept. 11 Carmel Valley Community Planning Board meeting to urge the board’s rejection of this inappropriate project. I urge others to join me. Lynwood Lary

One Paseo will give a central heart to Carmel Valley This letter was sent to the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board and to this newspaper for publication: Dear Chairman White and Members of the Carmel Valley Planning Board, I’m a business owner in Carmel Valley and I love this community! My business is expanding and I looked at other areas when considering relocating but now that I am in Carmel Valley, I never want to leave it. However, there are some real challenges here. I find it very difficult to stop in to the shopping centers and restaurants in both Del Mar Highlands and Piazza Carmel. Parking is not only difficult but drivers are very aggressive. All parking lots are dangerous but these two seem to be unusually difficult. I find it too stressful to go to these centers so I avoid those areas and simply walk next door to the Marriott for client meetings or drive to Del Mar. As a project in whole, these work/live/play communities are very appealing to Millennials. Our future as a city is dependent on what attracts and retains the best and brightest. One Paseo is amenity, community and feature rich and appeals to young singles and families alike. They don’t like to drive. A mixed-use project naturally encourages us to be less dependent on our cars by having most of what we need in one convenient location. This means fewer trips from place to place and, therefore, fewer cars on the road. All of the amenities including over 10 acres of usable space for farmers’ markets and community functions promotes a friendly environment for all residents and enhances the character of the community. As a county, San Diego needs this type of community in every area, not just downtown, if we want to attract the best talent. I would like to express my support for the One Paseo project. I have watched the progress of One Paseo and have been impressed at the evolution of this project! I suspect the feedback from your board and the rest of the community has played a significant role in making this project become the project it has evolved to. Carmel Valley is a family-oriented area and it truly lacks a central place where we can meet friends in an open and outdoor environment, much like the cafes of Europe. It will give character, a personality, a central heart to this lovely community. Thank you for your time, dedication and consideration. DeLinda Forsythe Carmel Valley Business Owner

Education Matters/Opinion Yet another study on the benefits of later school start times

BY MARSHA SUTTON I can’t believe I’m writing about this again.

Marsha Sutton

My fourth column, written in October of 2003, focused on the mountains of scientific research showing conclusively that early school start times for middle and high school students are harmful for teens. Since then, I’ve written two more columns on the subject, in 2010 and 2013, and referenced the insanity of early start times in numerous other columns, all the while expressing exasperation at the deafening silence from education leaders. But, at long last, change in the San Dieguito Union High School District may be afoot, precipitated by the Aug. 25 release of a yet another study on the subject, this one by the American Academy of Pediatrics. “The American Academy of Pediatrics recognizes insufficient sleep in adolescents as an important public health issue that significantly affects the health and safety, as well as the academic success, of our nation’s middle and high school students,” The AAP’s Abstract begins. “[T]he evidence strongly implicates earlier school start times (i.e., before 8:30 a.m.) as a key modifiable contributor to insufficient sleep, as well as circadian rhythm disruption, in this population.” The 24-hour internal body clock, each person’s circadian rhythm, shifts during puberty and alters adolescent sleep settings. This natural shift in teens, according to the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center, is called “sleep phase delay” which delays the urge to sleep. The AAP reported that moving start times later “will align school schedules to the biological sleep rhythms of adolescents, whose sleep-wake cycles begin to shift up to two hours later at the start of puberty.” This change in natural sleep cycles makes it difficult for teens to go to bed early enough to get the recommended nine hours of sleep they need each night, if they have to contend with an early school start time. According to Mayo Clinic, more than 90 per-

cent of teens in a Journal of School Health study reported sleeping less than nine hours a night and 10 percent of teens reported sleeping less than six hours a night. “A substantial body of research has now demonstrated that delaying school start times is an effective countermeasure to chronic sleep loss and has a wide range of potential benefits to students with regard to physical and mental health, safety and academic achievement,” the AAP report stated. The AAP recommends that school districts adopt later start times, which would help improve the physical health of teens, reduce the risk of obesity, lower rates of depression, improve mental outlook, reduce drowsiness which can result in driving accidents and poor decision-making, increase alertness, raise academic performance, and enhance the overall quality of life for teenagers. San Dieguito reaction “We’re totally aware of this,” said Jason Viloria, SDUHSD’s executive director of educational services. “This is not the first time this recommendation has been made.” Vilora said the AAP report has been shared with all the district’s principals, who have been asked to begin a conversation about the issue with their communities – faculty, parents and students. The report, he said, is “somewhat timely in that all of our schools are looking at different options moving forward.” He said this was a priority even before the AAP study was released. “We can’t just push aside what research says,” he said. “Research says that this is a very important piece of what we should do in education.” The goal is to offer students flexible start times, meaning students can choose to start earlier or later. Under this scenario, schools may offer a full school day with start times as early as 7:30 a.m. and possibly as late as 9:30 a.m., according to SDUHSD superintendent Rick Schmitt. “This is a big topic of conversation that’s obviously front and center for us, to provide students and families that option,” Viloria

said. There is no over-arching policy or position that the district or the school board is adopting, he said. Rather, these decisions are being left up to individual schools. “Right now we want the schools to work with their community stakeholders to figure out what works best for them,” he said. “It’s important that we don’t just say this is what it has to be.” Flexible start times may be implemented by next fall, he said, depending upon how each school site decides to proceed. “I guarantee that there’s going to be a change at each site,” said Viloria, although he wouldn’t say when those changes might happen. He pointed to Diegueno Middle School in Encinitas as a good model for having developed a system of flexible start times that works well. “We’re not recreating the wheel here,” he said. “There are plenty of schools out there that have made some shifts toward flexible start times for students.” SDUHSD’s Faculty Association is involved in the process, Viloria said, noting that teachers at Diegueno were on-board with the change, with some wanting to come in early and others preferring to start and end later. Influence of athletics programs After-school activities, particularly athletics, can present a major obstacle to later start times. When sporting events schedules and travel times to away games force students to miss classes at the end of the day (priorities here?), many parents and student-athletes become fiercely resistant to any change that would result in later dismissal times. If parents would apply the same zeal to the need for later start times that they display when they mobilize and lobby intensely over trainers, coaches and other sports issues, imagine what would happen. Viloria said the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF is the governing body for high school sports in California) has left the issue of school start and end times up to each

school. “I get the sense that CIF doesn’t really want to enter that area,” he said. Clearly that’s the case. By not taking a studentcentered position on the issue and refusing to recognize the problem, CIF has had an undue influence on bell schedules. One student who spent a year in Europe on an exchange program commented on-line on the issue, writing, “Perhaps other countries don’t have as big of a problem with teenager sleep issues in part because other countries don’t overvalue sports in the educational system.” One school district cannot go it alone against CIF on this issue. But there’s hope. Coincidentally and fortuitously, Torrey Pines High School principal David Jaffe is San Diego County’s CIF North County conference president this year, and he said he plans to bring up the issue at upcoming meetings with principals and athletic directors. “Now that this is forefront, it’s a great conversation to have with the group, and I’ll do exactly that,” Jaffe said. “I’ll agendize the item and have a conversation with north county principals regarding that.” Jaffe said there are three or four CIF sections in San Diego County. The north county region encompasses all high schools north of Scripps Ranch, which includes Poway, San Marcos, Vista, Escondido, Oceanside, Carlsbad, San Dieguito and other communities. Jaffe said his first meeting with the CIF group is this week, Sept. 9. He said he will share the AAP study with the group as background reading material to discuss at a future meeting. “David will advocate for the changes that he needs to help support his school site, as well as our district,” Viloria said. “I think it’s a really important topic,” Jaffe said. Not far enough Flexible start times may be a noble goal, but it doesn’t go far enough. The district’s board – which has historically been silent on the issue, if not downright hostile – needs to take the lead on this. Trustees should make it clear that they at last recognize the conclusive body of evidence showing that later start times are a critical in-

gredient for higher academic achievement and student health and well-being. San Diego County superintendent Randy Ward could – and should – take a leadership role on this topic as well, directing all county middle and high schools to implement start times no earlier than 8:30 a.m., as recommended by the AAP. But as of press time, Ward has not responded to a call last week for a statement on this issue. According to SDUHSD’s website, start times at the district’s four high schools currently are: 7:40 a.m. at Torrey Pines, 8 a.m. at Canyon Crest Academy, 7:50 a.m. at San Dieguito Academy, and 7:40 a.m. at La Costa Canyon. Start times for middle schools are: 8:30 a.m. at Carmel Valley, 7:40 a.m. at Earl Warren, 8:30 a.m. at Diegueno, and 7:40 a.m. at Oak Crest. Start times at Torrey Pines many years ago were once an outrageous 7:15 a.m. Determined parents, armed with petitions and solid research, pleaded with trustees to move the start time later, while special interests lobbied to maintain the status quo. Trustees offered a compromise, voting to move the start time to 7:45 a.m. Disappointed parents wanted 8:15 a.m. but settled for a measly 30 minutes after a long-fought effort that left them drained of energy and battle-fatigued. Torrey Pines now starts at 7:40 a.m. Canyon Crest had an 8:15 a.m. start time until 2010 when school leaders and parents met quietly and decided to move the start time back to 8 a.m. Ostensibly, this was because of traffic issues, but the impetus behind this effort was clearly sports. If traffic was really the driving force (so to speak), the group would have moved the time forward to 8:30 a.m. The over-riding factor was that the 3:15 p.m. release time forced studentathletes to miss too much of their fourth-period classes in order to arrive at their athletic events on time. Despite the evidence, the board voted 5-0 to support the decision. One board member thought so little of the matter that she didn’t even want it discussed, proclaiming the re-

quest “totally reasonable.” Canyon Crest now starts at 8 a.m. Indisputable facts Research indicates that students at schools that start at 8:30 or 9 a.m. are more alert and attentive, perform better academically, test better, have more positive attitudes, are happier, have fewer delinquency and behavioral problems, have decreased rates of illness and tardies, and are less likely to engage in risky behavior after school since school ends later in the afternoon. Some students do well with early start times, certainly, but decades of overwhelming evidence has proven decisively that the majority of teens would reap significant benefit from later start times and more morning sleep. And that includes student-athletes. Early bedtimes and early morning risings are scientifically shown to be difficult for teens. Delaying school start times is the single, simplest action schools can take to improve student achievement. “Chronic sleep loss in children and adolescents is one of the most common – and easily fixable – public health issues in the U.S. today,” said pediatrician Judith Owens in the AAP report. Owens is the lead author of the policy statement “School Start Times for Adolescents” published in the Sept. 2014 issue of Pediatrics. “The AAP is making a definitive and powerful statement about the importance of sleep to the health, safety, performance and well-being of our nation’s youth,” she said. Yet no amount of proven scientific data seems able to convince reluctant education leaders to take a firm stand on this. This public health issue can only be addressed when courageous leaders find the political will to enact sensible education policy and make a simple change in a system resistant to change that puts student health and academic interests first. Flexible start times are a beginning. Good for San Dieguito staff. At least it gets the conversation going. A mandate from the board is now what’s needed to give the effort some muscle.

Rotary Corner

Del Mar Rotary Club makes a difference in India BY EMILY FIGUEIREDO The Rotary Club of Del Mar’s International Committee has partnered to support India for several years with projects that continue to grow, supporting families and communities across the globe. This partnership began in 2011, when Peggy Martin, a member of the Rotary Club of Del Mar, travelled to India along with a fellow Rotarians and another friend. She wanted to experience India through the eyes of Rotary hosts, visit Rotary projects and participate in a day of administering the life-saving polio vaccine drops to babies and young children in two polio-endemic areas. Along the way, they visited villages in extremely poor areas where youth and teens were taught in one-room schools, donated by the villagers, who had never had the opportunity to receive an education. The younger students came in the morning for basic classes and lunch, while the teens came in the afternoon to learn vocational skills of stitchery and henna. In areas such as these, teen girls could not attend a “real” school because the free, government-run schools in the poorer areas lacked sanitary facilities that were safe for girls to use. Returning home to Solana Beach, Martin said she was “inspired to begin designing a project to help these young girls.” Within months, monetary contributions from the Del Mar Rotary Club along with Rotary friends helped launch a project to build a four-compartment sanitation block at one of the government schools in India. This school had no bathroom enclosure and no running water. This first small sanitation building, complete with gravity-fed water and wash basins, was opened the following year. Inspired by the service that could be accomplished in Rotary, Del Mar Rotarians set their sights higher. The following year, a Rotary Club in Delhi, India, partnered with the Del Mar Rotary Club to secure matching funds from the Rotary International Foundation via a Global Grant. With this additional funding, 10 more sanitation blocks were constructed in poor neighborhoods, each with lockable doors and running water. To assure proper use and maintenance of these facilities, members of the partnering Rotary Club in India have provided training on the use and maintenance of the toilets, as well as education on hand washing, cleanliness and hygiene, to school staff and parents in the respective communities. It is estimated that as many as 4,000 students each year benefit from these 10 toilet blocks, reducing disease in their communities and providing the opportunity for young girls to complete their basic education. Today, the project continues to expand and offer safety to people in India. The partnering Rotary Club in India has now embarked on another Global Grant project to build 20 more gender-specific toilet blocks and 250 toilets in individual houses in a neighboring area. These new sanitation facilities will be located in areas where the polio virus still lingers. All of this, they hope – and expect – will inspire the government to not only provide a 50 percent subsidy to all those who wish to build latrines in their houses, but also to make improvements to the government schools. Rotary leads the way once more as a prime mover! To learn more or get involved, visit www.DelMarRotary.org.

‘Mighty Merlot’ sets course record in Bishop Rock Race Billed as the “Dare to Take the Challenge” race, the Bishop Rock Race took place Aug. 29-31. Hosted by San Diego Yacht Club, the fleet sailed from Ship Rock, Two Harbors, Santa Catalina Island, proceeded around the West End, rounded Santa Barbara Island, followed by a run to Bishop Rock, and finished at San Diego. The race totaled nearly 200 nautical miles along the offshore waters of Southern California. With winds in excess of 23 knots and very large swells, this year’s competition A multi-hull, “Mighty Merlot,” skippered by HL Enloe, was allowed to race in the Turbo Fleet joined by a high performance 65-foot mono-hull, “Bad Pak,” skippered by Tom Holthus. Larger boats, “Bad Pak,” “Mighty Merlot” and “Second Wind,” a 65-footer, took early leads and with the rough conditions, thrived throughout the night. In the end, it was Mighty Merlot that took line honors and set a new course record of less than 12 hours. When the scores were finalized, Second Wind, owned and skippered by long time Solana Beach residents John Chamberlain and Dean Fargo, came out ahead of all of the mono-hull boats by more than 2 hours, winning both first in class and overall. Both boats will be inscribed on the Port Captain’s Perpetual Trophy, listing past and present winners and displayed at the San Diego Yacht Club.

To Your Health: Cold or Flu? Here’s how to tell BY MARK D. SHALAUTA, M.D. It often starts with a sore throat, followed by fatigue, headache, and body aches. You feel terrible — but is it the flu or just a cold? Like many people, you may believe you have the flu when in fact you have a bad cold. Both are caused by viruses and can make you head straight for the couch with the television remote and a cup of hot tea. However, the flu is much harder on your body than a cold, and knowing the difference can help you care for yourself better and recover sooner. Though many of the symptoms are similar, such as congestion and cough, flu symptoms are significantly more severe. For example, while a cold may cause you to feel slightly achy, the flu produces deep, painful muscle aches. If you have a fever with a cold, it is likely to be low; with the flu, a fever of 100 degrees or higher is likely and is usually accompanied by chills. You may feel more tired or low on energy with a cold. With the flu, you feel like you don’t have the energy to even get out of bed. Nausea and vomiting are also more common with the flu, but are seen more often in children than in adults. Colds usually come on gradually and can last a week or more before your cough and congestion finally start to subside. With a severe cold, you may develop a sinus infection or bronchitis before you fully recover. The flu typically hits suddenly; within hours, you feel sick and weak. Though you should start to feel better within three or four days, the fatigue caused by flu can persist for several weeks, so it is important to take it easy for a while. If flu symptoms don’t improve after a few days, or if you start to feel worse, call your physician. You want to make sure you are not in danger of developing pneumonia or other complications. Because both colds and the flu are caused by viruses, there is really no effective treatment available for either one. Your doctor may be able to give you medications to help relieve symptoms such as a sore throat, cough or headache, but the virus must run its course. While prescription medications such as Tamiflu may help shorten the length of the flu by about half a day if taken within 48 hours of onset, recent studies have suggested it may not make much difference in an otherwise healthy adult. In fact, it increases the risk of suffering from nausea and vomiting. Although frequently described as a type of flu, the “stomach flu” is not related to influenza. It is usually a viral infection that affects the gastrointestinal tract, and is most commonly caused by contaminated food or by physical contact with someone who has the virus. Nausea and vomiting usually last from 24 to 48 hours. Most adults don’t need treatment unless there is no improvement, but young children should get medical attention if they can’t hold anything down and are at risk of dehydration. Anyone with bloody diarrhea should be seen by a physician. How can you help prevent all of these illnesses? Wash your hands well and often, and carry anti-bacterial gel for when you don’t have access to soap and water. Also, get a flu vaccine at the start of flu season to increase your resistance to the most prevalent influenza viruses. If you do get sick, try not to spread the virus to others. Keep your mouth covered when you sneeze or cough, and cough into the crook of your arm rather than your hand. Avoid going back to school or work until you start to feel better, and give your body time to recover from being sick before you resume exercise or sports.

BY WALTER BAYS Torrey Pines Falcon freshmen recently hosted the Mission Hills Grizzlies. Both teams came into the game off of big wins last week, Torrey Pines 41-0 over Sweetwater, and Mission Hills 25-7 over perennial powerhouse Cathedral Catholic. Torrey Pines defense shut down the Mission Hills offense and came up with the big plays when they needed them, while the Torrey Pines offense was unstoppable. The Grizzlies received the opening kickoff and went three and out. Then on the Falcon’s opening drive they were intercepted and Mission Hills had the ball back on their own 38. After a screen pass was stopped short by #42 Zach Friedland, the Grizzlies had third and long. On a read option their back broke free for a long TD run and Mission Hills was on the board first, 7-0. The Falcons struck right back with good runs by #29 Ryan Ramirez and #11 Sully O’Brien, before O’Brien broke loose for a 67 yard TD to tie at 7-7. On the ensuing kickoff Mission Hills #10 Trevor Davis bobbled the ball but then recovered to run 75 yards for a touchdown putting the Grizzlies ahead 147. Starting from their own 36 the Falcons kept their poise and ground out a long drive with Ramirez and O’Brien picking up 8 or more yards per carry, capped with a quarterback keeper by #4 Jackie Plashkes to tie the game again at 14-14. Facing 3rd and 14 on their own 40 the Grizzlies went to the air, but #15 Jack Nelson delivered a big hit just as the ball arrived, the pass fell incomplete and Mission Hills had to punt it away. #34 Gaston Schenk ran for 14 yards, a penalty made it 1st and 15, then O’Brien swept left for 14. Then on 2nd and 1 #42 Zach Friedland popped through for a 33 -yard TD, and the Falcons took the lead for the first time 21-14, a lead they would not lose. Perhaps wary of the Grizzlies breakaway return threats, Torrey Pines opted for an onside kick. It was recovered by Mission Hills on the Falcons 40. They could not capitalize on their good position, as they were stopped on the ground for a short gain by #69 Jacob Raab and then passed in-

Falcons scored three times through the air and four times on the ground. Photo/Claudia Perrone complete under pressure from #77 Connor Nichols. After a penalty and recovering their own fumble the Grizzlies facing 4th and 25 got off a short punt and Torrey Pines took over again from the Mission Hills 36. O’Brien rambled 16 yards and then #34 Gaston Schenk scored to make it 28-14 Falcons. The Falcon defense was relentless and on their next series the quarterback was sacked by #50 Blake Gagen, causing a fumble recovered by Torrey Pines on the 32 yard line. #34 Gaston Schenk ran for 17 yards to put the Falcons in the red zone. On 2nd and 8 from the 13, #14 Chris Temby passed to #88 Joe Anthony for 10 yards. On first and goal Ramirez bulled inside the 1, and then #22 Beau Morgans scored the TD to put the Falcons up 3514 with still 8:06 to go in the 2nd quarter. If there was any doubt before now it was clear this would be a very long night for Mission Hills. Mission Hills fumbled the kickoff, caused by #18 Jace Evans, and the ball was recovered by #50 Blake Gagen to start the Falcons again in Grizzlies territory on the 30. The Grizzlies defense held firm, but then on 3rd and 18 #42 Zach Friedland ran for 25 yards off a draw play, and on 3rd and 11 another TD pass put Torrey Pines up 42-14. Starting from their own 40 the Mission Hills offense was again shut down and when they faced 4th and 3 they pretty much had to go for it. The pass was incomplete and the Falcons took over. The doughty Mission Hills defense stepped up and stopped the powerful Falcon offense. The Falcons lined up to go for it on fourth down and Mission Hills pulled their coverage in tight. The pitch was to #24 Matthew Goena who drove a punt deep into uncovered territory. On 4-18 Mission Hills got off a squib kick, retrieved by the sure hands of #21 Jacob Leone. On the Falcons next series Plashkes connected with #35 Ryan Cesari for 23 yards, and with #22 Beau Morgans for 9 yards. #24 Matthew Goena ran 5 yards for the first down, and then #42 Zach Friedland made a 15 yard TD reception to make it 49-14. Mission Hills had a good drive picking up 3 first downs but stalled with incomplete passes including a crucial one defended by #35 Ryan Cesari, leading to another turnover on downs. The Falcons moved down the field on the ground with runs by #24 Matthew Goena, #10 Ben Simsiman, #16 Cole Mihalinec, and #21 Jacob Leone. Then #57 Jadon Cotton carried into the end zone to make the score 56-14. The Grizzlies put together another long drive with a good mix of running and passing, and this time took it into the end zone to climb back to 56-21. On the final series Torrey Pines kept it on the ground, with almost every play another first down, featuring #57 Jadon Cotton, #6 Gunnar Braun, #30 Jacob Wise with back to back 12 yard carries, and #16 Cole Mihalinec threatening the Mission Hills goal line as time ran out with a final score 56-21. Torrey Pines’ record is now 2-0 while Mission Hills falls to 1-1. On Sept. 11 Torrey Pines faces Cathedral Catholic at home, while Mission Hills hosts Bonita Vista. Both games kickoff at 5 p.m.

Volleyball players Shane Flannery (above), age 12, from Solana Beach, and his partner from Carlsbad, Shane Graff, also 12, competed in the Cal Cup Tournament in Manhattan Beach on Labor Day as the representatives of San Diego for their age group. “The Shanes” took 5th place, which means that they are the #5 ranked team in California for Beach Volleyball aged 12 and under. During the pool play component of the tournament they almost beat the number one seeded team, losing 22-20 in a very tight match. Considering that they only knew each other for four weeks, their combined tournament record of 8-3 is impressive. As previously reported, “The Shanes” won the California Beach Volleyball Association 12U Tournament in Ocean Beach on Aug. 13. The boys went undefeated after being paired together by Matt Olson from the Wave Volleyball Club. As a result, they moved on to compete in the Cal Cup Tournament in Manhattan Beach.

Del Mar resident perseveres to win his division in a 100-mile ultra-marathon

Accomplished impressionist painter to hold exhibit in SB BY KRISTINA HOUCK From the coast of California to the mountains of Montana, John Modesitt’s paintings showcase scenic surroundings from across the United States and around the world. Much of his work features the quaint villages of France, where the longtime Solana Beach painter lives part-time. “There’s still an old feeling of the Old World era,” said Modesitt, an impressionist painter who has lived with his wife in Solana Beach for more than 20 years. “The smells, the sounds, the birds, the wind, the trees — you get all those ingredients together and it makes a beautiful symphony of nature. That’s what inspires me. It’s so quaint.” Modesitt developed his love of Impressionism at an early age. Although his father worked as a nuclear physicist, he was passionate about art and had a poster collection of French impressionist paintings, which fascinated Modesitt as a young child. Modesitt went on to spend decades studying Impressionism, a 19th-century art movement that originated with a group of Paris-based artists. “Painting in an impressionist style actually expresses the emotional impact you have when you’re there,” Modesitt said. “So when somebody looks at my work, they get the feeling of what it’s like to be there.” Modesitt began studying art at Santa Barbara City College under painter Robert Frame. By the early 1980s, he moved to the East Coast to learn about the work of renowned impressionist painters featured at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the Art Institute of Chicago. Since then, Modesitt’s work has also been displayed on walls across the world. His paintings have been featured at the Butler Institute of American Art Museum, the

Del Mar’s Mark Backes was still smiling at mile 45 of the Leadville Trail 100 in Colorado, cresting Hope Pass at 12,600 feet. Courtesy photo track and field through city meets until the sixth grade. He ran some cross country in junior high, but only ran a little in high school as he was plagued by injuries. As a sophomore he was badly hurt in a car accident and wasn’t able to compete and lost his confidence. He started to get his edge back right before his senior year, but the day before school started he broke his tibia and fibula while backpacking and missed his last high school season. After a few tough years at UC Santa Barbara, running became a way to help him get his life back on track. He got his motor going again and transferred to Long Beach State to run on the cross country team. He hasn’t stopped moving ever since, becoming a long distance specialist and taking on about a marathon

a year. In 2007, he qualified for the Boston Marathon and ran the historic race in what many considered to be the worst weather to hit the event in its 117 years, a Nor’Easter storm with torrential rains and heavy winds. “It was a tough year to have the full experience but I did it,” Backes said. He had aimed for a 2:50 but ran a 2:54 and was determined to return. He came back in 2008 and heartbreakingly missed his goal time by six seconds. Finally, in 2009, he accomplished his goal, crossing the finish in 2:48.49. In 2010, Backes’ close friend and former business partner recruited him to join him on a 50-mile ultramarathon to commemorate his 50th birthday. Backes

accepted the challenge, running with his friend in the American River 50 Mile Endurance Run outside of Sacramento. The culture was so much different from what he had experienced at road races, he especially loved how the race brought together all kinds of different people who were all just the same amount of crazy. Before Leadville, Backes had hoped to make it into the 2014 Western States Endurance Run, a 100-mile race that he considers the Super Bowl of ultras — the race uses a lottery system and only 217 athletes are selected to compete. He didn’t make it in the lottery so he chose to enter Leadville, considered one of the hardest 100-milers out there. Leadville starts at 10,200 feet, going up and down the Rocky Mountains, summiting Hope Pass twice at 12,600 feet. He registered for Leadville on New Years Eve, plying himself with coffee to stay up past midnight when registration opened. Once registered, he started training like “a rabid dog,” running three times during the weekdays about 20 to 30 miles total and then weekends of 20 to 25 milers and 30 to 35 milers back to back to get used to running on tired legs. He would head out armed for his long, long runs with change to buy Gatorades from convenience stores along his route. He tackled climbs of Torrey Pines and Mount Soledad and trained with another San Diego Leadville runner, 32-year-old Nolan Hansen, who “kicked his butt” on some “gnarly hills” in East County, such as the challenging, hot Mount Woodson trails between Poway and Ramona. He got so crazy with his

BY KAREN BILLING It took grit, determination and a lot of Fig Newtons for 50-year-old Mark Backes of Del Mar to win his division in the Leadville Trail 100, a 100-mile ultramarathon through the Colorado Rockies. Backes ran the 100-mile “race across the sky” in 22 hours and 51 minutes on an extreme out and back course up to an altitude of 12,600 feet that 330 participants did not finish this year. “A 100-miler has always been a part of what I wanted to do, to test me as a person, to see how far I could go and push myself to see what my limits were. I wanted to find them,” Backes said. “People think I’m a little nuts. But it helps me with my daily life when I achieve such crazy goals. I see everyday things ahead of me and I think ‘I’ve got this,’ life is so much easier.” Backes grew up in a family of nine kids in Chula Vista and for his mother, running was one way to tame her extremely hyper son. She encouraged him to go outside and use up some of his overflowing energy running the canyons and it worked. By the fourth grade, excelling at running was a way to stand out among his highly accomplished siblings. That year when they did the Presidential Physical Fitness Test, students were challenged to see how many 110-yard laps they could run (one 100-meter lap on a track) in a set amount of time. Backes did 18. “It was an unbelievable number, not that I planned to do it,” Backes said. “Once people started recognizing me as a runner it made me want to do it more. It spurred me on.” He made it to the Junior Olympics that year and placed third in Southern California and started doing

For the love of opera: San Diego company opens its 50th season in triumph over disaster

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY SUSAN DEMAGGIO San Diego Opera has embarked on its 50th year this month after coming to a crossroads and choosing the road less traveled — to preserve the cultural icon through new leadership and a fresh business plan. On the brink of collapse in March (when longtime CEO Ian Campbell and the San Diego Opera Board of Directors voted 33-1 to shut the company down for financial reasons after the final performance of the 2014 season), new leadership headed by former board secretary Carol Lazier took the reigns. Lazier, a major donor to the opera’s 2014 season, gave the company an additional $1 million to explore its options and “encourage the board to rescind the dissolution vote.” The result? A new board emerged; opera offices moved to new, smaller digs; interim artistic advisor Bill Mason was brought in from the Lyric Opera of Chicago; and the Company launched a crowd-funding campaign that resulted in an unprecedented $2.2 million in public donations. In May, after two months of deliberations and analysis, San Diego Opera announced its 2015 season — three operas “La bohème,” “Don Giovanni,” and “Nixon in China” performed at the San Diego Civic Theatre, and special Gala Concerts of favorite arias, duets, ensembles and choruses with the San Diego Symphony at Copley Symphony Hall. “Clearly there are people committed to saving the San Diego Opera — the third largest cultural institution in the city — and they seem to be making strides in engaging stakeholders and the broader community in the conversation,” wrote Eileen Cunniffe in the April issue of Nonprofit Quarterly. The company’s new offices occupy the fifth floor of the Centre City Building — 7,000 square feet, down from the 15,000 square feet of office space the company previously occupied. In addition to the move, which will save the company $400,000 per year in rent, the San Diego Opera reduced 13 staff positions and employees have taken a 10 percent pay cut across the board.

“Nixon in China” by John Adams. Performance dates: March 14, 17, 20 and 22. Courtesy photo Opera Board President Lazier states in a press release that the Company “continues to look at cost-cutting measures and efficiencies as it moves forward. These cuts have helped reduce the 2015 budget from $17 million to around $11 million.” William and Evelyn Lamden, and Randolph and Carol Lamden Corby, granted Centre City Building’s three-year lease, which represents, a $300,000 gift to the opera company. “Our support of the Opera in its efforts to continue producing great operatic events reflects our desire to see a thriving arts community in San Diego,” Bill Lamden said at the time. Of his vision for the San Diego Opera Company, interim director Mason said, “San Diego opera lovers can confidently look forward to a future of continued artistic excellence and innovation as the Company embarks on its 50th season. “I urge the community to continue to support the company by attending performances, donating as generously as possible, and spreading the word about the beauty and life changing power of opera.”

San Diego Opera is not alone in its struggle to survive. With great hope, its new path will save it from the fate of other opera companies that have gone out of business recently — New York City Opera, Opera Boston, Opera Cleveland, Baltimore Opera, San Antonio Opera, Lyric Opera San Diego and Opera Pacific in Orange County.

Teen Volunteers in Action kickoff event The founding SD1 Chapter of Teen Volunteers in Action (TVIA) held its yearly kick-off event on Sept. 7 at the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center. The annual event is an opportunity to introduce the Chapter’s leadership council, comprised of a dozen teens, and launches the year of community service events for the volunteer group of approximately 180 young men, grades 7-12. This year’s kick-off event featured a motivating presentation by Sarah Hernholm, founder of “Whatever it Takes” (WIT). WIT was founded in 2010 with the goal of inviting youth to share their ideas for how to improve their communities and turn their ideas into reality. Over the past four years, WIT has grown and evolved into the only college-credit high school entrepreneur program. Teens accepted into the WIT program learn how to design, launch and sustain social enterprises. Hernholm opened her lecture by thanking the TVIA boys for their commitment to community service. She then challenged the group to show up at each of their community service events with a sense of giving instead of getting. “Instead of just showing up to your events, shift your thinking to what can I give to each community event,” said Hernholm. Hernholm closed her lecture by posing for a “selfie” with the young men who were clearly inspired by her speech. Many members of the group remained after the event to talk with her about WIT and their shared passion for community service. Serving the north coastal communities of Del Mar, Carmel Valley, Solana Beach, Rancho Santa Fe, Encinitas and Carlsbad, TVIA is an organization of young men grades 7-12, committed to developing community leaders through a structured program of volunteerism, philanthropy and personal growth. The

Gus Fernandez, Kevin Fernandez, Hunter Ayyad, Willy Ayyad youth participate in numerous community service events throughout the school year. At the event TVIA families collected donations for North Country Solutions for Change (NCSC). The donations received went to the purchase of crafts for the children at NCSC, and TVIA will be hosting a December holiday party for the families of NCSC.

Antiques on Cedros to hold Sidewalk Sale and Flea Market in celebration of anniversary BY DIANE Y. WELCH Antiques on Cedros is a misnomer. To use the words of owners Tony and Wanda Russo, “We are not just antiques!” Located in the Cedros Avenue Design District close to the intersection of Lomas Santa Fe, the 5,000-squarefoot Solana Beach-based showroom is nestled behind Timeless Furnishings and Patio, and is a brightly-lit showcase for objets d’arts, furnishings, collectibles, jewelry, lighting fixtures and more. This year marks the one-year anniversary of the showroom’s opening, and to celebrate the occasion, the Russos have organized a community sidewalk sale and flea market from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. the weekend of Sept. 13-14. There will be special offers, discounted prices and live music. “There will be something for everyone,” Tony Russo said. With a view to bring the community together, and through their membership in the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce, Antiques on Cedros has partnered with James Couzens and Jason DeCors of The Rockademy located on Stevens Avenue in Solana Beach. They will have several of their students perform music at the venue, where there will be a festival atmosphere. The showroom serves as a retail venue for local vendors who rent booths and display a variety of merchandise that ranges from shabby chic furniture, to Tiffany-style lamps and vintage chandeliers, dining ware, vintage sporting goods, collectible comics, rare Lalique glassware, art, vinyl records, an antique piano, a Victrola, home and garden ornaments and more. In all, more than 50 dealers supply “new treasures everyday,” said Russo. Native New Yorkers, both from the Bronx, the Russos were brought to San Diego just over a year ago through family connections.

Tony and Wanda Russo Credit Diane Y. Welch They had visited their son, who is a chef in Chula Vista, and like so many visitors to the region, decided to stay. Having been in business for themselves previously, although not in antiques, they welcomed their new venture after they retired from running a café in Tampa, Fla. Daniel Mellgren, who has a booth in their showroom and has been in the antiques business for 30 years, mentored the pair. Mellgren has a vast collection, which includes gentlemen’s antiques, ephemera, vintage sporting goods, militaria, globes and maps. “Dan comes in every day. He is able to check on the authenticity of items and educate us about antiques,” said Russo. “We constantly learn about new things and we also work very closely with our other vendors. It’s definitely a collaboration.” Other types of merchandise include dinosaur fossils, pre-Colombian pottery and rare antiquities from Dr. Geoffrey Smith, and hand-crafted jewelry from Solana Beach artist Linda Melvin, along with estate and antique jewelry, all priced to sell, said Russo. Several of the vendors will be out on the sidewalk and the area will be cordoned off. Russo is encouraging people to walk down to the venue or park remotely and walk there. People of all ages are welcome to stop by. Light refreshments will be served. This weekend event is the first of several planned for the rest of the year with the next one, which will spotlight local fine artists, scheduled for next month. Call 858-704 4900 or visit antiquesoncedros.com for more information, to inquire about vendor or consignment opportunities, or to peruse some of the current items for sale. Open seven days a week, the Antiques on Cedros showroom is located at 118 Cedros Ave. in Solana Beach.

Komen San Diego will host San Diego’s only community-wide symposium on breast health and breast cancer, Screens, Genes, & The Choices We Make: A Night of Breast Health Awareness on Sept. 30, from 5:30-7:30 p.m., at the Marriott Del Mar. Emmy-winning women’s health advocate and breast cancer survivor Carol LeBeau will lead an expert panel to help attendees answer important breast health questions. “When it comes to breast cancer awareness, one fact is obvious—there is a lot of information swirling around that is less than factual and can be very confusing to women,” said Laura Farmer Sherman, executive director of Susan G. Komen San Diego. “When we engage and empower each other to be our own health advocate, it doesn’t have to be scary. Sharing the facts so that the women of San Diego can be educated about their breast health is the core of Komen’s mission at this event.” The evening will consist of a reception, dinner and an engaging, upbeat and entertaining discussion about the breast health facts that can keep San Diegans informed and healthy. The panel of experts will include Ardy Arianpour, Chief Strategic Officer at Pathway Genomics, Dr. Jennifer Purdy Mayberry, M.D., Diagnostic Radiologist and Women’s Imaging Specialist at San Diego Imaging and Chandini Portteus, Chief Mission Officer for Susan G. Komen. Lorraine Hutchinson, Komen San Diego 2014 Honorary Breast Cancer Survivor, will also share her story. Marriott Del Mar: 11966 El Camino Real, San Diego, CA 92130.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS

North County Interiors has been helping residents beautify homes for almost 40 years BY KAREN BILLING North County Interiors has been providing high quality flooring and window coverings in Encinitas for 38 years. The company has become well known for its products, design, installation and customer service. Since taking over the company just six months ago, new owner Kenneth Smith has spent time making sure the exterior of North County Interiors looks just as attractive as the inside. The business is located in an iconic gas station building west of the freeway on Manchester Avenue. Smith refreshed the orange paint with a modern, pleasing teal and paired it with green awnings and wood and steel planters full of succulents. A matching wood and steel fence and gate surround the property, designed by Smith’s son. “It’s been a lot of work renovating, getting the new website up and keeping up with the business walking in the door,” said Smith. “It will be nice now to just focus on the business walking in the door. Some know exactly what they want and we get it for them, others take a little more time. It can be overwhelming if you don’t have someone to help you and talk to you about different styles and price points.” Former owner Rod

(Above) North County Interiors has had a dramatic exterior overhaul in the last six months. (Right) Owner Kenneth Smith shows off North County Interiors’ stocked showroom. Photos by Karen Billing Gould started the business in 1976. Smith, who has a background in real estate development and design, had been looking for a small company to purchase and couldn’t resist when North County Interiors went up for sale — it fit his particular set of skills and the location especially couldn’t be beat. Smith said it’s so central, close to the freeway and easy for everyone to get to. He runs the showroom along with Gayle Baker, who has been in the industry for 18 years and knows the inventory backward and forward. “I wouldn’t have purchased the business if Gayle had not have promised to stay with me,” Smith said. The company specializes in redesigning living spaces. “For a lot of people, buying flooring is a huge decision, they may only do it once in a lifetime so there’s a high fear factor of ‘Am I choosing the wrong thing?’” Smith said. “We work with them on coloration and price and make sure it fits within their budget. We bring down a lot of the anxiety that comes with such a big purchase.” With their free in-home consultations, Smith said they aim to make sure people put the right flooring in the right area. As an example, a family with high traffic — such as three kids and two dogs — might want to steer clear of a

house full of white carpet. “When I get into the home I can get a feel for the family lifestyle and their design tastes,” Smith said. The home consultations are also helpful because Smith said most people have no idea how big their homes are — he knows budget is always an issue and once he gets into the home, he can have honest conversations about square footage and cost. “I understand a lot about the building process and contractor issues and I get a lot of questions when I get into people’s homes — they start talking to me about complete renovations,” Smith said. In addition to helping people choose the right kind of flooring, Smith has even given suggestions on countertops

• April 25: A mariachi opera “El Pasado Nunca se Termina” (The Past is Never Finished) by Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán / Leonard Foglia / José “Pepé” Martinez, 2 p.m. San Diego Civic Theatre. This new opera tells the story of the appearance of Halley’s Comet over Mexico in 1910. Taken as a portent to war, it heralded the eve of the Mexican Revolution as peasants turned into soldiers and soldiers into revolutionaries who sought to reclaim land that had been theirs for centuries. Developed by the Lyric Opera of Chicago, the show will be part of the second Mariachi Week in San Diego with citywide performances of mariachi talent and celebrations on the Community Concourse in front of the theater before the performances. Opera Tickets:

and bedroom paint colors. According to Smith, the business is moving away from carpet and more toward hard surfaces, such as wood floors, laminate and luxury vinyl tile — known as “LVT.” “Laminates have come a long, long way,” Smith said, noting the new laminates realistically mimic different styles of wood and stone looks and are super durable. This is not to say carpet isn’t still in — people are still carpeting bedrooms and living rooms, Smith said. The trends in carpet are textures such as lines and patterns, lower piles and carpets that are super-soft to the touch. Dupont’s Smartstrand has become quite popular for its stain-resistance and its silky softness, according to Smith. “Every company is coming out with a version of super-soft fibers. It’s really fun and it’s wonderful if you have a room where people spend a lot of time on the floor,” Smith said. For more information, visit northcountyinteriors. com or call 760-436-5552. The showroom is located at 2959 Manchester Ave., Encinitas, 92007. Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of our advertisers.

In September, Modesitt is holding a weeklong exhibit, his first since the threeday show he held in February. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The best thing about this show is people get to visit my studio, they get to see works in progress, they get to see all my materials and they get to ask questions,â&#x20AC;?

which is really nice.â&#x20AC;? His latest exhibit will feature California and Montana landscapes, but much of it will feature the quaint villages of France he is most inspired by.

Go wild for National Rice Month The Kitchen Shrink

BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN “Rice is great if you’re really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.” – Mitch Hedberg This precious grain that has been nourishing populations for more than 5,000 years, and today feeds some 3 billion people worldwide, has been purported to sustain one of the oldest living humans, a Brazilian man who claims to be 126 years old, thanks in part to his daily plate of rice and beans. Here’s how to get the most out of this versatile seed that is honored in September with a national holi-

day that bears its name. The Long and Short of it While there are roughly 40,000 varieties of rice grown around the globe, (except in Antarctica), they are primarily classified into long-, medium- and shortgrain groups. Long-grain typically contains more amylose, a soluble starch, making this type less sticky and fluffier than other rices. In most kitchens in this country long-grain white is the rice of choice, although the brown has a rich nutty flavor and chewy texture as the bran and germ of the seed are intact. Basmati rice, a super long-grain, flourishes in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains, and is the cornerstone of Indian, Persian and Middle Eastern cuisines. Available in both white and brown varieties, its nutty flavor and delicate aroma make Basmati ideal for pilafs and biryani dishes. Jasmine rice, native to Thailand, has a seductive, floral perfume and a soft slightly sticky texture, making it a perfect accompani-

ment for stir-fries and other Asian dishes. Jasmine rice should be rinsed before cooking to remove any powdery residue. The most commonly used medium-grains are Japanese sushi rice, which is firm and clingy; and Bomba, the sponge of rices, which absorbs twice as much fluid as long-grains. Since Bomba doesn’t get sticky, it is typically used for Spanish paella. As for shortgrains, Arborio, a super sticky, creamy Italian superfine variety is ideal for risottos and rice puddings. There are also “specialty” rices, including Wehani, an American hybrid of basmati with a rich reddish brown hue and chewy texture perfect for pilafs or blending with other rice varieties. Wild rice, not a botanically true rice, rather the seed of a North American grass is rich, dark, robust and chewy, making a wonderful stuffing for squabs, turkey and other fowls. Finally, the “forbidden” Chinese black rice is firm yet tender and not clingy, with a deep purple hue making an impressive pre-

sentation as a simple side. Grains with Benefits Rice is a naturally nonallergenic, gluten-free complex carb, low in sodium, fat and cholesterol free, while a good source of protein containing all eight essential amino acids. White rice is loaded with manganese, selenium, iron, folic acid and niacin, but brown has extra boons,

including additional minerals, especially magnesium for boosting bone and immune health, along with four times the dietary fiber as white varieties. While wild rice, although has less mineral content than brown, contains more protein, folic acid, antioxidantrich Vitamin A, hearthealthy omega-3s, along with a lower glycemic load, making it diabetic friendly.

There’s more, Rice is easy to digest and convert into energy, and is a good mood food that triggers serotonin in the brain. One word of rice warning White varieties contain omega-6 fatty acids, which tend to be pro-inflammatory. So especially arthritics, stick to wild rice, the only variety that doesn’t promote inflammation.

Seven Vegetable Fried Rice Whip up this family favorite fried rice, chock full of vegetables as a hearty side dish or add sautéed wild-caught shrimp or seared deep-sea scallops for a fall feast. Ingredients 3 cups cooked longgrain white, brown or Jasmine rice (about 1 cup raw) 1/2 red pepper, diced 1 carrot, diced 1/2 cup chopped broccollini 1 zucchini, diced 1 small, sweet onion, diced 12 pea pods, halved 6 ounces mushrooms,

1 egg, scrambled Sea salt and cracked pepper, to taste

chopped (crimini, oyster, shiitake, your choice) 1 tablespoon sesame oil 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil 1 inch piece fresh ginger, shredded

Method: In a wok or heavy skillet heat the oils on medium and sauté carrot, broccoli, pepper, zucchini and ginger. Stir and cook for two minutes, then add mushrooms, onions and pea pods. Cook until tender. Blend in rice, seasonings, then the egg until cooked. Serve with soy sauce, and garnish with cilantro. For additional rice recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr. com

SPONSORED COLUMNS MICHAEL PINES Accident & Injury Legal Advice 858.551.2090

Ford 2013 Escape Recall Information: Consumer Info & Recommended Steps Owners of the latest 2013 Ford Escape crossovers are urged to take the next steps to prevent accident and injury following the automaker’s latest recall. According to New York Times, Ford is recalling about 140,000 vehicles in the United States because of a potential ﬁre hazard. The manufacturer has indicated the Escape’s 1.6-liter EcoBoost 4-cylinder engine may be to blame for 13 recent auto ﬁres that prompted the recall. Other export markets including Canada may also be affected. According to Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker, an additional 21,000 cars are being recalled internationally

in addition to the recall in the U.S. Ford explained the recall was voluntarily issued due to concerns over cracks in the engine during possible overheating of the cylinder head. Cracking could lead to leaked oil and a possible fire in the presence of highheat surfaces. Although no personal injury has been reported, 13 vehicles were ignited into flames after suspected cracking within the engine components. Ford aims to fix the problem by enhancing “the engine shielding, cooling and control systems.” Owners of all 2013 Ford Escapes are urged to visit an authorized dealer to inquire on recall repairs. According the auto manufacturer’s site, some 9,500 of its 2013 Escapes thought to have undergone repair may still produce fuel leaks which could pose a fire hazard. An additional 2,300 vehicles in Canadian and export markets are additionally recalled. More information on the recall can be found here. NEXT STEPS: STAY SAFE & FOLLOW UP ON RECALL REPAIRS IMMEDIATELY Ford says the recall is voluntary, but that’s not to be confused with voluntary repair. In this sense, Ford’s voluntary recall means

the company was not forced by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue the recall. All consumers, however, should know that recall repairs are urged to be completed as soon as possible and are therefore not voluntary. To ensure your safety, please make sure to: 1. Contact Ford Immediately If you’re at all unsure whether your vehicle is affected, call Ford at 1-866-436-7332 and provide your Vehicle Identification Number to receive more information. Alternatively, Ford owners can log onto http://FordOwner. com or by clicking here to find recall information. 2. Schedule Repairs To avoid any risk of fires, you must complete your repairs as quickly as possible. Most authorized Ford dealerships or repair stations will complete your recall repair free of charge. It’s important to contact Ford to find out which locations can service your vehicle for free. 3. Report Any Additional Problems Consumers should notify the auto manufacturer when any additional problems arise. Even if the issue is small – say, loose hubcaps or a trunk that won’t stay shut – it’s

important to report the malfunction right away. Lives are saved when consumers are proactive. 4. Register Your Vehicle for Future Recalls Owners of Ford vehicles and all other manufacturers are urged to register their vehicles and other commonly used household items, equipment or machinery at Recalls.gov. Benefits of registering include quick notification in the event of new or additional recalls, ongoing updates and any additional information pertaining to relevant recalls. Consumers can even register to receive recall information about foods, medicines, toys, furniture, personal care, cosmetics and other consumer products.

MARATHON continued from page B1 training that two and a half months out he purchased an altitude training tent to sleep in. “That was magic, it helped so much in acclimating to the high altitude,” he said, admitting his wife Mardel might have thought differently. He was dedicated and vigilant in his training and didn’t realize what great shape he was in until he began his taper, easing back on the mileage in the weeks leading up to the race, “During the taper was when the magic started to happen, I started to feel how strong I was,” Backes said. Backes traveled to Leadville six days before the Aug. 16 race to get used to the altitude. During a shake-out four-mile run on one of his first days in town, a hip injury that had bothered him during training flared up and hurt so badly he had to walk the last three miles. His head was understandably spinning — the 100-mile race of his life was days away and he couldn’t even run four miles. The next day he went

out again and ran a careful six miles and started to feel better. He felt like a “gajillion bucks” on his last eightmile run before the race. “I had never felt so good or so strong. I was so ready to go I was chomping at the bit,” Backes said. Backes’ brother Frank was his one-man crew at the aid stations of the race. With some 800 athletes, there are just as many people waiting at the aid stations so it can be a nightmare finding your crew, especially during the nighttime hours. Frank had rigged up a 26-foot pole with a flag and flashing lights that Backes could see from a half-mile away so it was always easy to find him. Frank was loaded down with 24 32-ounce Gatorades, energy bars and Fig Newtons to sustain his brother along the way. Backes said he felt a little nervous at the 4 a.m. start line as it hit him just how many people he had told he would run the race in under 24 hours — perhaps it was too lofty a goal? But he thought of his wife Mardel, a cancer survivor. He would run for her. And he kept returning to the words that been implanted in his brain from

the race founder Ken Chlouber: “You’re better than you think you are; you can do more than you think you can.” “No one else in the race mattered. From the time the gun went off I was just possessed,” said Backes, who launched off with a head-lamp affixed to his head to light his way. He was careful about going out too fast and he ran at a conversational ultra-marathon pace, talking to everyone. When he hit mile 25 at the last aid station before they headed over Hope’s Pass, he started to realize how hard the race was. He crossed through a muddy, stinky river and started the ascent with dirty, mucky shoes, trying to keep himself in the zone even as several people were passing him. He took the backside of the pass just as slow because it was so rocky and steep and he knew if he tripped just one time, the race could be over. Gatorades were guzzled and tray after tray of Fig Newtons consumed. At 45 miles, he started to see all world-class race leaders run by as they had reached the turn-around point. And he started to get

discouraged seeing all the people who had passed him as well, not to mention his hip was starting to jar him. “It took forever to get to the turn-around,” he said, but once there he changed out of his mucky shoes and had to get weighed. Athletes are weighed at the start of the race and if at any point during the 100 miles they have lost more than 7 percent of their body weight, they are pulled off the course. Backes weighed in a little bit over what he had at the start. He took six Tylenols for his hip, having been warned by the race doctor against the effects of ibuprofen on the kidneys during a race of this kind at this altitude. He had never been beyond 50 miles in a race before and he started to think this is where the race really began. He made it back up Hope’s Pass and was able to start passing people. After 60 miles, athletes are allowed to use pacers. He picked up his first pacer, who would take him through mile 87. A second pacer would take him from mile 87 to the finish. At this point they were running in the dark, it was about 6 p.m. His pacer was extremely well-prepared and together they picked up over

an hour of time. “We were flying,” Backes said of their 8:45 and 8:15 miles, which he said 70 miles into a race is pretty good. “We were just gobbling up the course at this juncture.” At about mile 75, they came to a large group of spectators at the aid station playing music and offering encouragement. It was the middle of the night and without even thinking, Backes popped an ibuprofen that someone offered him and charged on to mile 87. After 87 miles he had consumed 21 32-ounce Gatorades and had only peed twice. At about mile 95, he started to really hurt and was having trouble taking in oxygen. The last five miles seemed to stretch on forever, but soon he could see the finish line all lit up in the 3 a.m. darkness of Leadville. Backes ran as fast as he could so that the 22-hour mark wouldn’t click into 23, remembering that Boston Marathon heartbreak, nearly taking a header tripping over the timing strip. He was sucking in air so hard that his throat was raw but he was thrilled that he had accomplished what he had set out to do and with time to spare.

His elation turned to concern when he stepped on the scales and saw he had gained seven pounds and looking down noticed that his legs had swollen to more than twice their normal size. He still hadn’t peed and was having trouble breathing — the medical tent doctor diagnosed him with High Altitude Pulminary Syndrome. The ibuprofen had effectively shut down his kidneys and he was so full of fluid that he couldn’t breathe. The doctor monitored him over the next eight hours until the award ceremony as his fluids drained, allowing him to stand on the podium for the first time since he was a fourth grader to collect his first place medal. Nothing could have kept him off that medal stand. “It was such a thrill to stand on that podium and have run the race of my life. It was really overall an amazing thing,” said Backes, noting that now the only thing left to do was just win that Western States lottery — the athletes for the 2015 race are picked Dec. 6. “If I do get picked, I hope I’m blessed to be able to train like I did for this race,” Backes said. “And maybe, just maybe, I can have another magic day.”
