SDUHSD to split into trustee areas for elections BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) has begun the process of changing the method in which its trustees are elected. At a Sept. 27 special meeting, the board passed a resolution to transition from an “at large” election system to a “by-trustee area” election system — meaning the district will divide into separate trustee areas and one governing board member will be elected by the registered voters in that area rather than the community at-large. The new district map would be

effective for the 2018 election. In 2002, the California legislature enacted the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA) which prohibits the use of at-large elections of governing board members if it “impairs the ability of a protected class to elect candidates of its choice or its ability to influence the outcome of an election.” Under CVRA, the only way a school district can protect itself from potential CVRA litigation is to divide into the “by-trustee area” system — in recent years school districts and cities have been targeted by law firms for violations of the CVRA.

In the case of Jauregui v. City of Palmdale, plantiffs argued that the city’s at-large method of election resulted in vote dilution for Latino and African American residents. A 2013 trial determined that the at-large method violated CVRA and the city settled for over $4.5 million plus interest and spent over $1.5 million in attorney fees. SDUHSD Superintendent Eric Dill encouraged the community to be involved in the process as the district creates map options for the new trustee boundaries. Two public hearings will be held

prior to the creation of maps to take in public comment. The first will be held at the board’s regular board meeting on Thursday, Oct. 12, 6:30 p.m. at the district office and a second will be a special board meeting on Thursday, Oct. 19 at 6 p.m. at the district office. After the map options are created there will be three public hearings throughout November. The board will vote on the area boundaries after the third public hearing, at the regular board meeting on Dec. 14. Once created, proposed maps will be posted on the district’s website at cvra.sduhsd.net.

Solana Beach drops objections to proposed concert venue at fairgrounds BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The $13 million transformation of the Del Mar Fairgrounds’ satellite betting center is back on track, just in time for the project’s hearing before the California Coastal Commission. Fairgrounds officials announced Friday, Sept. 29 that they have resolved their dispute with the City of Solana Beach over the project’s environmental and traffic

impacts. The terms of their agreement, however, are not yet being made public. The 22nd District Agricultural District (DAA), which runs the state-owned fairgrounds, put the finishing touches this spring on its plan to renovate Surfside Race Place by converting half of the facility into a 1,869-seat concert venue and a 7,000-square-foot area for beer tasting SEE CENTER, A22

BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Fallout from the Pat Vergne controversy refuses to abate. With the specter of two possible lawsuits hanging overhead, a group of irate residents have mounted a petition calling on the city council not to renew the contract of City Manager Scott Huth when it expires in January. The petition on Change.org had amassed 279 signors as of Wednesday morning, Oct. 4 — including five former city council members — setting up a standoff between an influential faction of longtime residents and a city council that has consistently praised Huth’s performance throughout his six years as city manager. The fount of their ire: the contentious firing of Vergne, who as director of Community Services and chief lifeguard was the city’s most visible and well-regarded employee — to many residents, the very face of city government. Vergne

and two of his subordinates were terminated on Aug. 23 after a four-month investigation that allegedly depicted a pattern of mismanagement that officials say cost the city more than $200,000 between 2015 and 2017, primarily by waiving fees to rent the Powerhouse Community Center. The decision to fire Vergne — and the grounds used to justify it — touched off a powder keg of outrage from Vergne supporters who countered that his practice of discounting Powerhouse fees was widely known and benefited the city far more than it cost. Robin Crabtree, whose husband represented Vergne during the investigation, brought the petition to the city council at its Oct. 2 meeting. Huth was away on his customary October vacation. “It’s one simple premise, nothing else: we’re asking the city council to look forward to the future of Del SEE HUTH, A19

Solana Beach’s skatepark is taking shape Ocean-view dispute in Del Mar leads to lawsuit BY SEBASTIAN MONTES In the 15 years since Del Mar enacted its ordinance on scenic views, residents in the Del Mar Woods condo community have lodged dozens of complaints over the eucalyptus trees and assorted shrubbery that enclose a 5.8-acre homestead on Del Mar’s southern bluff. Descendants of Ralph and Marion Staver — who established the idyllic compound at 110 Stratford Court more than 50 years ago — have painstakingly trudged through those periodic complaints, arriving at various agreements that include trimming back the vegetation twice a year. A lone holdout: Sherli Weiss, who moved into her condo at the beginning of 2015 and initiated a complaint of her own in August 2016, saying that the twice-a-year trimming hasn’t adequately tamed the fast-growing vegetation that quickly blots out the whitewater views through her living room window. She wants the property line to be trimmed four times a year — at her own expense — but the Stavers have demurred. So now, after being denied by a 3-2 ruling from the city planning commission that was upheld when the city council deadlocked on her appeal in July, Weiss is petitioning the state

BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Solana Beach’s decade-old effort to build a skatepark in La Colonia Park took an incremental step last week as the city council gave engineers the go-ahead to prepare construction documents that will nail down the precise specs for the 6,000-square-foot facility. And with the project still facing a $270,000 shortfall, the council also gave its fundraising campaign a boost by agreeing to offer donor tiles.

courts to get her view back. Her lawsuit, filed in San Diego Superior Court on Sept. 19, accuses Del Mar of failing to uphold its scenic views ordinance by basing its decision on her view after the trees are trimmed rather than when she bought the property. She wants the court to force the city to re-hear her dispute with the Staver family or to craft a new agreement on the tree-trimming. “They didn’t buy an island. They bought a property in Del Mar,” she told the city council at her July 17 hearing. “Del Mar passed an ordinance: no scenic view monopolies for the people who are lucky enough to have a direct ocean view. Give the rest of us something. … I’m just asking you to protect what I had when I purchased — not create a new view — [and] protect it so that I have it a little bit more of the year than every six months.” Attorneys for the City of Del Mar and Torrey Pacific Development Co.— an LLC through which the Staver family manages the property — did not respond for comment by press time. The dispute traces back to 2002, when Del Mar enacted its scenic view ordinance. Within a year, owners in Del Mar Woods had filed complaints

At the council’s Sept. 27 meeting, Site Design Group — a Carlsbad-based firm that designed the Encinitas and Carmel Valley skateparks — walked council members through a linear, plaza-style layout that will allow more skaters to use the park at once. The design is a hybrid of two concepts presented to the public for feedback this summer, combining transition-style skating and street-style skating. Settling on a design concept and allowing donor

tiles will open the door to more aggressive fundraising, said Linda Swindell, who has spearheaded the skatepark campaign as a member of the city’s recreation committee. “A lot of the events and fundraising that we have done have been more focused on awareness,” she said. “We’ve been waiting to get to a point where we could go for something bigger as far as getting people to be able to put out SEE SKATEPARK, A22

DMUSD in talks about 5-56 project impacts on Del Mar Hills BY KAREN BILLING Several Del Mar Hills Academy parents spoke before the Del Mar Union School District (DMUSD) board Sept. 27 about their concerns about the proximity of the school to the proposed Interstate 5-State Route 56 connector project. Caltrans’ project will link westbound SR-56 with I-5 north and I-5 south and SR-56 east with flyover ramps — the $300 million project is not funded for final design or construction but once funding is identified, the project could be built in phases with a potential start date of 2035. The Torrey Pines community has long opposed the connectors due to the “significant” impacts the connectors would have on their community, including on the elementary school as one of the

ramps would run within 57 feet of the school’s main building. A final environmental impact report (FEIR) was released over the summer and the public has 150 days from the release of the document to legally challenge the NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) review — a Feb. 12, 2018 deadline. Del Mar Hills parent Heather Bushman said Caltrans’ plan is of great concern to those in the community and urged the district to take some action within the 150-day timeframe. “It will look to Caltrans as though the school district approves this project and we may not have legal standing later,” Bushman said.

Information wanted on unknown suspect(s) that set fires at Carmel Valley schools San Diego County Crime Stoppers and investigators from the San Diego Metro Arson Strike Team (MAST) are asking for the public’s help in identifying and locating an unknown suspect(s) wanted for intentionally setting two separate fires at schools in the Carmel Valley area.

DMUSD board reviews facilities master plan costs

BY KAREN BILLING The Del Mar Union School District (DMUSD) revealed the price tag on its recently completed facilities master plan on Sept. 27 — $179 million in modernization and upgrades across the district, including reconstructions of its oldest schools, Del Mar Heights School and Del Mar Hills Academy.

Spooktacular dressage show benefits Breast Cancer Angels BY KAREN BILLING The Spooktacular Halloween Dressage Show and Howl’in Dog Costume Contest returns to the Del Mar Horsepark on Oct. 7-8, considered by many to be the “funnest dressage show of the year.” Lisa Blaufuss of Crackerjack Productions created Spooktacular in 2013 as a competitive, triple-rated dressage show that focused on fun and also gave back to breast cancer nonprofits during October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month. “I love that Spooktacular has allowed me to be very creative and think outside of the box for a dressage show. As the show theme

Seeing everyone enjoying themselves makes me very happy.” The show features the Costume Musical Freestyle as well as the Spooktacular Relay in which teams of four compete. In Friday’s relay, sponsored by Barbara Biernat of Horse and Rider Boutique, one leg of the relay will be riding horses bareback. Kimberly Hart of Sundland Ranch in Olivenhain is loaning two of her beautiful Icelandic ponies for the event. “We thought it would be fun to introduce

The cause is close to studio owner Bri Blonigan’s heart as her 4-year-old niece Brooklyn has been fighting leukemia for nearly two years. According to the National Cancer Institute, the government only allocates 1.97 percent of its budget to childhood-leukemia research. St. Jude and treatment facilities like it largely rely on private donations to keep them going. “Brooklyn has another four or so months of chemo to go, but because of treatment options developed by St. Jude, there's a good chance she'll be in remission after that,” Blonigan said. “We are so grateful.” To fundraise, Blonigan and instructor Donna Hilles taught three donation-only classes at the studio on Sept. 23, raising $743 at that event alone. On Sept. 30, WundaBar held a successful donation-only mat Pilates class to benefit St. Jude at Indian Joe Brewing in Vista. The brewery donated $1 for every pint they sold that day and the event raised over $900. WundaBar plans to hold a second day of donation-only classes on

Bronze medal duathlete Judi Carbary with the “Iron Nun” Sister Madonna Buder (the oldest person to ever finish an Ironman Triathlon at age 82 in 2012) and triathlete Maya Bryson.

Carmel Valley duathlete places third at World Championships BY KAREN BILLING Carmel Valley’s Judi Carbary won the bronze medal in her 65-69 age group in the sprint duathlon at the 2017 International Triathlon Union (ITU) Multisport World Championships Festival in Penticton, British Columbia on Aug. 19. Carbary was just 47 seconds from second place. “It was pretty close,” said Carbary, who didn’t even realize she had placed until talking to others after the finish line. “I didn’t even think I was going to do that well so it was a surprise. It’s very competitive at Worlds, people are out for blood.” The race was a 5K (3.1 miles) run, followed by 20K (12.4 miles) on the bike and wrapped up with a 2.5K (1.5 mile) run. It was unexpectedly a very hilly course for Carbary with a 14 percent grade for over three miles — the course was a loop so on the way back there was a steep downhill. “I hadn’t trained for that but I still beat everyone up the hill,” Carbary said. Adding to the challenge of the course, the weather was hot and the air was smoky due to a wildfire in British Columbia. August’s race was Carbary’s seventh World Championship appearance, her second in the last two years. In 2016, Carbary placed third in the Duathlon World Championships in Aviles, Spain. She shaved six seconds off of her time last year. “I was excited to get a bronze medal at World’s again and I was really close to second so I was glad,” Carbary said. Carbary has qualified to represent Team USA at the 2018 ITU Multisport World Championships in Odense, Denmark after placing first in the USA National Draft Legal Sprint Duathlon in Bend, Oregon in June. “Denmark will be another fun experience,” Carbary said. “I like to travel with the races so it’s a good excuse to go somewhere.” A triathlete and duathlete for 32 years, Carbary started out by running recreationally in college and did her first triathlon in Pennsylvania in 1985. She taught herself to swim and for many years bicycling was her strength but she is finding she runs faster than many in her age group. Carbary is also the dedicated coach of the San Diego Youth Triathlon Team and created the

SoCal Youth Triathlon Series to inspire the younger generation to compete in the sport she loves. Carbary tailors her own training and racing around her kids’ schedules and was able to work in five multi-sport races of her own this year. Her last race this year, “for fun,” will be the Life Time Triathlon on Oct. 15 in Mission Bay. Formerly known as the Esprit de She and SheRox, the race is coed although it is still predominantly female. During the season, Carbary holds training sessions and clinics for her young triathletes — her team recently raced to podium finishes at last weekend’s Mission Bay Triathlon. As some kids are afraid of open water, she set up a triathlon in a pool for next year. The San Diego Kids & Family Splash and Dash will be held at the Carmel Valley Recreation Center on March 24, 2018 and buoys will be placed in the pool for the course so it will mimic the feel of an open water swim.

The Long Wave Goodbye

www.delmartimes.net

Surf legend Bill Andrews hammered by fatal disease

BY COREY LEVITAN ill Andrews has less than two years left on this ride, and he’d like to dictate how he wipes out. The 73-year-old surfer, an icon to local tube-seekers since gracing the cover of Surfing magazine in 1964, is rapidly submitting to ALS. While he can still control his hands — and he barely can anymore — Andrews wants to use them to take his own life. “There is no getting better for me, and you have to be able to do that yourself,” Andrews says, fighting to remain present in a wheelchair in an assisted-living apartment in San Marcos. Today, as most days, Andrews — clad in a Hawaiian shirt over tracksuit bottoms and bandaged feet and ankles — struggles with daily chores while surrounded by reminders of his glory days. “You see that poster behind you?” he asks. “That’s me — the tall skinny one on the right.” In the ’60s, Andrews was a golden god of La Jolla Shores. “BA is one of the last true watermen left — the last generation of guys who remember the days of the huge heavy balsa boards with no leash,” said Dr. Julie Ellner, a bariatric surgeon and fellow La Jolla surfer, during a phone interview. “He always pushed his own limits. He would always pull into the waves that no one else would, and inevitably, he would get drilled on the reefs and come up bleeding.” Ellner said you could always tell where Andrews had been surfing “because there would be little footprints of blood going up the rocks.” Commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, ALS is a particularly cruel disorder that leaves the mind intact while destroying every muscle in the body — including, eventually, the diaphragm and heart. (Most sufferers die from respiratory failure.) Andrews asks this reporter for help inserting his oxygen tube so he could continue talking. “Right now, I have the strength of a 2-yearold,” he says, straining to suck enough from his gurgling Invacare oxygen machine. “There’s nothing good about this disease.” Andrews’ boyish smile pokes through the depression only occasionally. When surfing is the topic, however, it’s nearly constant.

ANDREWS FAMILY

Bill Andrews holds the 1964 ‘Surfer’ magazine whose cover he graces. “I learned to surf right in front of my house in La Jolla Shores,” he says, recalling the year as 1954. “My favorite memory was that first wave. I’m thinking, ‘OK, I’m a surfer now.’ ” Andrew loses his train of thought and nods out, as he does once every 6 or 7 minutes or so, before returning to consciousness 30 seconds later and asking where he was. This condition is common among ALS sufferers, a result of the exhausting fight to stay alive that the body must mount on multiple fronts. From La Jolla Shores, Andrews waded out to WindanSea and became celebrated there, too. He then became the first to surf Black’s Beach, and he opened the Pacific Beach Surf Shop. “Back then, there was a real clash of cultures between surfers and the mainstream,” Andrews says. “It’s not like it is now.” But Andrews will leave a legacy that transcends surfing. He was also a tech pioneer

WEEK IN SPORTS BY GIDEON RUBIN

FOOTBALL Santa Fe Christian defeated Christian of El Cajon 30-7 in a nonleague game on Sept. 30. Eagles quarterback Demitri Washington completed 4 of 5 pass attempts for 88 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions. Washington connected with Matthew Stevenson on a 39-yard scoring pass. Washington also scored a rushing touchdown. Jack Miles rushed for 61 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries and Joe Burich gained 79 rushing yards on nine carries. Chase Whitton and Chase Baptista each had seven tackles and Charlie Wislar had two sacks. The Eagles improved to 2-3 overall for the season. ***** Cathedral Catholic defeated Olympian 28-3 in a nonleague game on Sept. 29.

who worked as an engineer for Northrop, where he says he designed a lunar excursion module radar platform that made it to the Moon. “I never thought my accomplishments were that big of a deal,” Andrews says. “But now that I’m getting ready to croak, they seem to be.” Andrews says he’s broken his back four times — from surfing and motocross. “I figured, with my levels of participation in sports, I wasn’t going to live a long time anyway, just because I was stupid. But I figured it wasn’t going to be a gentle, you know, here I go die.” The average survival from the onset of ALS to death is three years. Only 10 percent of sufferers survive longer than 10. (Cosmologist Stephen Hawking, ALS’s second most well-known sufferer after Lou Gehrig, was also given two years to live — in 1963! — but he has a rare early-onset form of the disease that progresses slowly.)

VOLLEYBALL La Costa Canyon defeated Canyon Crest Academy 3-0 (25-23-25-18, 25-23) in an Avocado League West match on Sept. 29. Morgan Lewis had 11 kills and Katie Lougeay had 10 kills to lead the Mavericks. Mia Schafer had 23 assists and Caitlin Kikta had 16 assists. Whitney Ballard and Hannah Martin each had 12 kills to lead the Ravens. Olivia Lovenberg had 34 assists and Sophia Theriot had 11 digs. LCC’s victory followed a 3-0 (25-14, 25-13, 25-14) league win against San Dieguito Academy on Sept. 26 in which Morgan Lewis led the Mavericks with 19 kills. Caitlin Kikta had 16 assists and Schafer had 12 assists. Sarah Colla had 14 kills to lead the Mustangs. Savannah Hyndman had 12 assists and Faith Kelly had eight assists. The Mavericks improved to 4-0 in league and 12-3 overall for the season. SDA fell to 0-3 in league and 14-8 overall for the season.

Bill Andrews rides a wave in earlier days. The fifth time Andrews broke his back was the worst, he says. It was in his doctor’s office in November 2016. “I fell down,” Andrews says, “which kind of clinched that something was really wrong.” Whatever Andrews decides regarding the end of his life, he says his loved ones — including three sons and six grandchildren — promise to stand by the decision. (He is divorced twice.) “Whatever path that is, I give him my full support and love,” his 48-year-old son, Brian, said during a phone interview. “I’m here to support and carry out his wishes 100 percent.” In recent years, Andrews became more of a surfing photographer than a surfer. The last time he got up on a board was in January, and he knew it would be the last. “If you like to surf, keep surfing,” he says. “If you like to paddle, keep paddling. Don’t let any small issues get in the way, because, one of these days, a big one will.”

CCA’s loss followed a 3-0 (25-18, 25-23, 25-17) league victory over Carlsbad on Sept. 27 in which Martin led the Ravens with 13 kills and 10 digs. Gracie Wood had 34 assists and Vivienne Franke had eight service aces. The Ravens improved to 2-2 in league and 8-6 overall for the season. ***** Torrey Pines defeated Carlsbad 3-0 (25-14, 25-15, 25-17) in an Avocado League West match on Sept. 29. Jaden Whitmarsh had 11 kills and Emily Fitzner had 10 kills and 19 assists to lead the Falcons. The victory followed a 3-0 (25-16, 25-15, 25-17) victory over Sage Creek on Sept. 27 in which Trinity Durfee had six kills and Carly Diehl had 13 assists and six digs. The Falcons improved to 4-0 in league and 12-3 overall for the season. ***** Cathedral Catholic defeated Our Lady of the Peace 3-0 in a Western League match on Sept. 27. Jaalyn Sotoa and Peyton Wilhite each had 10 kills to lead the Dons and Kylie Adams had 29 assists. Wilhite also had 15 digs Karenna Wurl had 13 assists. The Dons improved to 2-0 in league and 9-4 overall for the season.

Local girl top fundraiser in FARE Food Allergy Walk BY KAREN BILLING Carmel Valley’s Charlotte Bailey participated in her sixth annual FARE Food Allergy Walk on Oct. 1 and was recognized as the event’s top fundraiser, raising over $4,000 for Food Allergy Research and Education. Charlotte, a sixth grader at Solana Pacific Elementary School, has a life-threatening allergy to peanuts. At the walk, held at San Dieguito Park, Charlotte had a chance to give a speech about what life is like with her allergy. “Having an allergy makes me feel a lot of things. Sometimes I feel mad because I think, ‘Why me? Why do I have to have an allergy?’ I also feel sad when I’m I am not able to participate in everything that other kids can. I can feel scared when I think of what can happen to me if I have an allergic reaction,” Charlotte said. “But mostly I feel loved. My family and friends have spent so much time keeping me safe and teaching me how to keep myself safe.”

Since a young age, Charlotte has become her own advocate. She carries her own Auvi-Q or Epi-Pen and is trained how to use it on herself. She orders her own food and always tells servers about her allergy. Her friends know to pack nut-free lunches and snacks so they can sit with her at school. “One of the best ways I help to stay safe is by teaching others. Together with my

family I am able to teach my friends, my school and my coaches,” said Charlotte,11. “Teaching others helps people understand the seriousness of food allergies. When people understand, they are most willing to help me.” The theme for this year’s walk was Food Allergy Super Heroes and Charlotte chose the Wonder Woman’s logo to represent her team.

Carmel Valley students of the Alliance of Youth Leaders in the United States at the Therapeutic Riding Center in Ramona.

Carmel Valley students volunteer to maintain 20 acres of property at a Therapeutic Riding Center in Ramona Carmel Valley students of the Alliance of Youth Leaders in the United States (AYLUS) volunteered all summer at a Therapeutic Riding Center dedicated to the healing of body, mind and spirit of United States Military service members returning from Iraq and Afghanistan who have lost limbs, traumatic brain injuries, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and are recovering from these and other injuries and illnesses. The center also provides equine-assisted therapeutic riding to children, youth and adults with physical, cognitive and emotional disabilities, including brain injuries. Unique to other forms of exercise, the horses’ three-dimensional swinging gait moves the rider’s body in ways very similar to those produced by the normal human walk. The rhythmic movement and the warmth generated from a horse’s body soothes and relaxes tight or painful muscles, joints, and tendons and can also build strength and flexibility. The San Diego Branch students of AYLUS are responsible for managing and maintaining 20 acres of property at the Therapeutic Center. They cleaned ice plants, twitches and leaves on

the property. They moved heavy dry sods so that grass can grow again on the property. Since there are snakes and scorpions living in the area, they took great caution to make sure snakes and scorpions can escape in directions away from them, when they moved sods. After hours of hard work each time they volunteered there, the students’ hair were wet with sweat. The students did a great job because even the horses at the center know that they are friends and let the students pat them from the sides. They also learned a lot about horses. All horses at the center are covered with fly masks so flies won’t bother the horses’ faces. The students also watched with amazement how a horseshoe was trimmed. The following students volunteered at the Therapeutic Riding Center: Leonard Fan, Raymond Li, Andrew Peng, Ethan Tran, Mike Wang, Lynne Xu, Christopher Yang, Stephen Yang, Bonnie Yu, Andrew Zhang, Alan Zhu, and Brian Zhu. Christopher Yang and Stephen Yang organized the volunteer activities at the Therapeutic Riding Center.

A typical fund will not disclose what is called Transaction Costs in their load structure, and high turnover causes higher transaction costs, which eat up your investment returns.

Mutual fund companies offer multiple varieties of funds, focused on different asset classes, regions and industries and when you take the time to dig down, you’ll find that there is a real lack of transparency with regard to two things: current holdings and actual fees.

Starry Starry Night Gala raises $1.16 million in support of Voices for Children

S

tarry Starry Night, the signature event of Voices for Children, was held Sept. 9 and raised net proceeds of more than $1.16 million in support of Voices for Children and its volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program. With the funds raised, Voices for Children will be able to provide a CASA volunteer to more

than 450 abused, abandoned or neglected children in San Diego County for an entire year. The event was held at the Sahm Estate at Del Dios Ranch, home of the late Ramona and Roland Sahm. The event was chaired by Lany and Alex Zikakis. A highlight of the event was the premiere of “The Best Gift,” by

filmmaker Alex Juutilainen, telling the story of Rosie Burton, a former foster youth whose life was transformed by the dedication of her CASA, Dawna Marshall. Rosie’s story showcases the simple yet profound ways a CASA can break the cycle of pain and abuse suffered by children in the foster care system.Visit www.speakupnow.org.

FROM VIEW, A2 against the Staver family. When the complaints reached the city planning commission, Don Countryman — who represented the Stavers but is now on the planning commission — worked out a compromise in which the Stavers would remove some of the 40-foot trees and agree to regular trimming. A new wave of complaints came in 2013, all but seven of which were resolved within a few years. In November 2016, the city planning commission ruled that the view of four of those seven owners —including Weiss’s next-door neighbor — had been unreasonably obstructed by the Stavers’ trees. Those disputes were settled a month later in a resolution that the city established on the condition that all parties drop their appeals. Weiss’s complaint wasn’t part of that arrangement. When her case reached the planning commission in April 2017, commissioners denied her complaint 3-2, with Countryman among the no

votes. Weiss appealed to the city council, which examined the case from scratch in a 90-minute hearing that raised thorny questions over how Del Mar applies its view ordinance. At that hearing, Christopher Garrett, an attorney for the Stavers, argued that Del Mar’s view ordinance requires the city to base its rulings on views and vegetation heights at the time of a hearing, not when the property is purchased. He also staked that Weiss’s demands would upend the December 2016 resolution. “That decision is binding,” Garrett said. “If you’re going to reopen that and come up with a conflicting decision … it’s unfair to us because we gave up [our] appeal to agree to that 20-feet height.” When the city council bogged down into a 2-2 tie — with Mayor Terry Sinnott recused because he lives nearby — that left the planning commission’s decision in effect. Weiss believes the 2016 resolution is flawed in that it expressly allows her view and that of her neighbor (who was part

of the agreement) to be obstructed. While the other complaints had focused on the height of several blue gum eucalyptus trees, her gripe is primarily with the width and rapid growth of the lesser vegetation underneath, including melaleuca trees and fern pines. When Weiss moved into her condo, the Stavers kept that vegetation just above the property’s 6-foot-tall fence, she said. But the city’s 2016 resolution dictated that the vegetation be allowed to grow up to 20 feet. “All I want them to do is to enforce the ordinance,” Weiss said in an interview. “It’s very frustrating to have them come up with these different views on the same ordinance.” Del Mar and Torrey Pacific had not filed responses to Weiss’s lawsuit as of Tuesday, Oct. 3. Despite the protracted impasse, Weiss hasn’t ruled out the possibility of reaching a settlement. “There’s always hope, but right now I look out my window and it just makes me want to cry,” she said. “My beautiful whitewater view is totally blocked.”

FROM PROJECT, A2 met with Caltrans last week and that the district would be continuing conversations with them. Arturo Jacobo, Caltrans project manager for the North Coast Corridor, said that it was a positive meeting and he showed the district how the FEIR is consistent with the plans seen during the draft circulation of the document. McClurg said she has also attended the Torrey Pines Community Planning Board meetings on the topic and discussed the project with San Diego City Councilmember Barbara Bry. McClurg said it is true that the project comes within 57 feet of the district property. The Torrey Pines Community Planning Board has expressed concerns that the ramp will be six feet below a sound wall, potentially exposing children playing on the basketball court and playing fields to toxic diesel fumes. At last week’s meeting, resident Brian Farmer encouraged the district to stress the importance of mediation for “excessive noise and pollution” both during construction and after the project has been completed. “We want the community to know that we definitely have direction from our board and that our district staff is committed to making sure our children are safe,” McClurg said.

Enberg recalls trailblazing TV debut of Breeders’ Cup BY BRYCE MILLER n a cramped, makeshift television booth carved into the second deck of old Hollywood Park, unflappable Dick Enberg found himself, well, momentarily flapped. There stood Elizabeth Taylor, holding him hostage with a set of eyes that caused a generation to swoon. This was the woman who gracefully glided across the biggest of screens with Rock Hudson, James Dean, Richard Burton and Paul Newman. Cleopatra herself. In front of a national television audience on Nov. 10, 1984, the two were about to talk about … horse racing. “Every guest who came in this tiny little booth, we were smelling each other’s cologne,” Enberg recalled. “We were literally nose to nose because it was so tight. Well, here comes Elizabeth Taylor. I looked into her eyes, ‘Wow, they are violet.’ “I was in total awe. Here’s this amazing, Academy Award-winning, beautiful movie star — one of the most famous of her generation.” Superfecta, indeed. The appearance of Taylor, Fred Astaire, John Forsythe, Tim Conway and others formed the backbone of a calculated plan to inject star power into coverage of a $10 million gamble known as the Breeders’ Cup. NBC, with La Jolla resident Enberg as its race-day host, would tackle an unprecedented seven races in a four-hour, live telecast. Trailblazing television for the sport, ripe with questions and logistical knots. More than three decades later, the Breeders’ Cup — which has grown to 13 races over two days —

(The Breeders’ Cup and Del Mar are honoring Enberg with the Sports and Racing Excellence Award on Nov. 1.) “My first thought was, ‘Oh my gawd, how are we going to fill four hours?’ ” said producer John Gonzalez, who now directs the A&E hit reality show “Live PD.” “Halfway through, it was, ‘Oh my gosh, how are we going to get all of this in?’ ” Understanding the rhythm of the Breeders’ Cup meant living one. There was nothing remotely

resembling a road map. The task seemed daunting because seven races of about 2 minutes each guaranteed just 14 minutes of action. For a year and a half, Gonzalez and Enberg — fresh off the 1983 World Track & Field Championships in Helsinki — rushed themselves through a crash course on the sport while brainstorming feature stories that could fill the gaping coverage window.

OPINION

OUR READERS WRITE What happened to your humanity, Del Mar? After 35 years of service to the Del Mar community, Pat Vergne was publicly and shamefully fired by the city manager, supported by the city council. Pat didn’t murder anyone; he didn’t drive drunk; he didn’t abuse a person or an animal. Pat, a Del Mar lifeguard since he was 16, and a loyal community supporter known for rising to any occasion when something needed to be done, was terminated for “cause.” The so-called cause was Pat’s judgment in the use of the Powerhouse Community Center, both in terms of public vs. private use and in terms of the fee charged. Instead of speaking with him privately, Pat received an unprecedented public rebuke by the city manager. Instead of repaying his loyal 35 years of service with a quiet close, the city sent out news releases, which are now the top four items on Del Mar’s website. And instead of any display of decency, some councilmembers added to the tar and feathering with statements criticizing Pat and defending the city manager. The crux of the cause seems to be Council Resolution No. 2009-46 establishing guidelines for the use of public facilities – guidelines, not hard and

fast rules. Those guidelines were meant to be used fairly and flexibly for the Powerhouse Community Center, which opened in 1999 as a public location where members of the community and others would be welcome to gather for group activities, social support and a variety of other purposes, including private events, such as memorial services. The Powerhouse was never intended to be a city profit center, like a parking meter; rather, the rent should cover costs. Sometimes in recognition of the unique character of Del Mar and its culture of extraordinary service by community members that cost calls for judgment because you can’t always draw a line between community use and private use. Take the open memorial service for John Coughlin, for instance. More than 300 attended the service to honor John who made all the benches and picnic tables for the Powerhouse and Seagrove Park at no charge to Del Mar. Was that a community event or a private one? Resolution No. 2009-46 included conferring flexibility and discretion on the city manager to allocate the use and fees for the Powerhouse, according to individual situations. Past city managers delegated this responsibility to Pat. Nobody complained about Pat’s administration – his judgment – until two disgruntled lifeguards filed a complaint. Which comes down to the cause for Pat’s firing.

Pat, in his official Del Mar capacity, always acted like a mensch. We can’t say the same for the city manager or the city council. Humiliating, disparaging and discrediting employees should not be sanctioned here. The unjust and unconscionable treatment of Pat Vergne is contrary to the ethos of this community. Carl Hilliard, Richard Earnest and Mark Filanc The authors were members of the Council when Resolution 2009-46 was discussed and adopted.

What is there to reimagine about the Bluff Preserve? I am responding the recent article: Del Mar is reimagining Scripps bluff preserve and North Beach. Is this really the most important concern to Mayor Terry Sinnott: development over preservation of an iconic location, as quoted from the article, “My real concern is that we create something that is going to throw a monkey-wrench into their schedule,” said Mayor Terry Sinnott. What on earth is there to reimagine about the Bluff Preserve? What about protecting the gift, vision and intent for the James G. Scripps Bluff Preserve? If those who SEE LETTERS, A21

Opinion: A time for reflection

F

or Jews, this is the season for reflection, atonement, forgiveness and renewal. In that spirit, I wish to apologize to anyone I’ve offended through my personal contact or written word. My passion for education issues sometimes overrides my sense of decorum and respect for others, others who also share a passion for education. When passionate people are convinced they know the “one true way,” nature’s bad side can take over. I am guilty of often dismissing other opinions and ideas simply because they do not agree with mine. For that I am truly sorry. My passion sometimes manifests itself into frustration, anger, suspicion and intolerance. This, coupled with my notorious predilection for impulsiveness (Why do I feel the need to hit Send without more careful consideration of the message’s tone and impact?), is a trait I must learn to tame. I recognize that most of the people who dedicate their time and energy to the cause

of bettering educational opportunities in our community are good souls. They may just see a different path to the end than I do. I’m going to start my renewal by apologizing to those of you I’ve insulted or hurt, and ask for forgiveness. In this age of incivility, it’s easy to catch the bug. Insulting behavior is contagious, and enough of it day after day normalizes the nasty way people often relate to one another. I am as guilty of indulging in this behavior as others. Acknowledging this character flaw is my first step toward addressing it. Next steps are to care less. By that I mean to disconnect emotion from knowledge and be less critical of opinions different from mine. It’s not nuclear war if I don’t get my way on, say, later start times. This is not the end of the world. The point is, as someone once said, it’s OK to disagree; just don’t be disagreeable. A new low SEE SUTTON, A22

FROM SIGNS, A5 request for the stop sign on Caminito Mendiola, said the stop sign is the highest priority but he was also in support of speed postings as there is not one posted speed limit, stop sign or crosswalk in a mile stretch where there are now 400 homes and homes currently under construction. “This road was never intended to be a through street to Solterra Vista,” Donnelley said, noting when they purchased their home they were told it would be an emergency lane or fire exit. After Rancho Santa Fe Farms Road turns into Solterra Vista Parkway, it loops back to Carmel Valley Road. Donnelly said the street is narrow and “dangerous” and the slope of the street creates a blind left turn. The proposed stop sign is also close to the site of the potential Del Mar Union School District’s ninth school on Solterra Vista. Donnelley said he went around his community of 10 homes on Sandy Lane and also gathered signatures from neighboring Verana, Casavia and Rancho Glen Estates. “I didn’t get one objection, everyone knew exactly what I was talking about and was enthusiastic about it,” Donnelley said. “This seems like an obvious place to install something.” The planning board is able to request the city install a stop sign through the alternative process, even if the city has determined the intersection does not meet its requirements. Donnelley said the city engineer did come out and study the road — a 15-minute study conducted at 11:45 a.m. He said there has also been an accident at the intersection in the last 90 days. Resident Frankie Rastkar made the proposal for the stop sign on Rancho Santa Fe Farms Road and Rancho Santa Fe Lakes Drive. A resident in the Casabella Collection since June, Rastkar said there is no safe way to cross Rancho Santa Fe Farms and cars speed fast through the thoroughfare where many new home communities are being built. The stop sign site is also close to the Solana Beach School District’s potential school site on Golden Cypress Place.

KAREN BILLING

The Carmel Valley Community Planning Board approved a stopsign at Caminito Mendiola and Rancho Santa Fe Farms Road where it turns into Solterra Vista Parkway. A city engineer completed a traffic survey of the road and determined it did not meet the requirements — the survey was 15 minutes at 2 p.m. Rastkar made her request for the alternative process after circulating a petition through her neighborhood, all 17 neighbors in support of the sign. At the same meeting the stop signs were approved, another Pacific Highlands Ranch resident spoke to the board about a stop sign for Golden Cypress Place, also on Rancho Santa Fe Farms Drive, near the new community of Watermark. Resident Bruce Cameron said Carmel Valley Road has become so congested that people are using their residential streets as cut-through routes. “For this whole area, it’s just obvious this hasn’t been an area of focus yet,” Donnelley said of Pacific Highlands Ranch’s traffic signs, postings and needed crosswalks. Donnelley remarked on how bad the traffic is on Carmel Valley Road going westbound to SR-56 — all of the new homes empty out onto the road in addition to the Village shopping center and SEE SIGNS, A21

Mar and not renew the contract of the current city manager. We feel he is not the right fit for the future of Del Mar,” she said. “… We want to be heard. We also do not want you to treat us like we were ignorant, because we’re not. We are all very well-informed and want all of you to hear us.” The petitioners’ objections extend far beyond the Vergne fiasco, said former councilwoman Gay Hugo-Martinez. She cited several instances in which she felt Huth’s leadership was wanting: installation of new parking meters in North Beach, which she said took more than two years because of problems with the city’s application to the California Coastal Commission; a street improvement project at Camino Del Mar and Carmel Valley Road that provoked outcry from neighbors; and the city’s 2017-18 budget, which a resident committee this summer found to have a $900,000 overrun. “It all falls on our city manager,” Hugo-Martinez said. “Of all the places to cut your teeth, Del Mar is not the place to do it. How much learning on the job does he have to do before you say enough is enough? … Never, never, in the 30-some years I have lived here have I ever seen so many people in the community come together over one issue like they have [now].” As the petition built steam in the two weeks since its launch, it also spurred others to Huth’s defense, including three former councilmembers who sent letters to the city in the past week. In his letter, James “Bud” Emerson, a former councilman who now sits on the city’s finance committee, expressed concern that the petition “is representing Del Mar citizenry in a way that does not reflect our core values and principles of balance and fairness.” He urged the council to weigh the entirety of Huth’s performance in a principled way, the good and the bad. “I do not want Del Mar to be seen as a city that politicizes an important strategic decision,” he wrote. “We owe it to him and

This California native has enjoyed a 40-year career in theatre, film, television and radio. He is a producer and founding member of the musical group The Midtown Men, currently on their seventh national tour. Hoff’s passion for the arts has continually intersected with his business pursuits in entertainment, technology and brand development. His involvement in philanthropy led to his family’s longtime commitment to The V Foundation for Cancer Research, and struck a personal chord when his youngest daughter was diagnosed with pediatric leukemia, and his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer.

we owe it to ourselves. Del Mar’s reputation as a principled, fair-minded community is at stake.” Former councilwoman Lee Haydu, who was on the council when Huth was hired, said he “has done more good for the city than any other City Manager in my memory.” And Don Mosier, the mayor at the time, said Huth deserves credit for putting the city in “much better shape” than it had been when Mosier joined the council in 2008. “Some have asserted that problems between Pat Vergne and the city manager started after Scott was appointed. This is false, as these conflicts date back to at least two prior city managers. So Scott inherited this problem, and tried diligently for five years to solve it,” Mosier wrote. “No one is happy when a long-term city employee needs to be replaced, but it appears to me that there was no other course of action give the formal complaints the city received. When the city manager has to make a difficult decision, we should acknowledge that this comes with the territory and not engage in a campaign of recrimination without full knowledge of the facts. The facts in this confidential personnel issue are known only to the council, the city manager, and the city attorney, and we need to trust that each fulfilled their duty to the citizens of Del Mar.” The city council has held its ground throughout the investigation and ensuing backlash, but did make a concession last month: to reevaluate how they carry out Huth’s annual performance reviews. Council members have not disclosed what changes, if any, they made to Huth’s review process. The topic was on the agenda for the closed session portion of the council’s Oct. 2 meeting, after which City Attorney Leslie Devaney confirmed that Huth’s review had begun.

A horse and rider in costume at a past Spooktacular. FROM SPOOKTACULAR, A6 difference in patients’ lives. These tend to be smaller more intimate organizations that know the names of their clients and are in tune with their needs.” Blaufuss said Breast Cancer Angels provides direct financial and emotional assistance for individuals with everyday life expenses as they are going through breast cancer treatment. “I don’t think people realize that treatment isn’t the only financial obstacle when dealing with a chronic disease,” Blaufuss said. “The

ability to cover everyday living expenses can suddenly disappear when paying for treatments. It’s very common and yet often undiscussed.” As Blaufuss continues to fight her recurrence of cancer, with a “heavy heart” she has decided this year’s Spooktacular will be the last year she does the show. “It’s become apparent that I have to completely focus on healing. And while I truly love putting on fun shows for you, for our wonderful community, the level of effort and stress associated with producing these events works against me,” Blaufuss wrote in a Facebook message. “This has been a very hard decision to make. But I don’t want this to be a sad thing. Let’s come together one more time and have the best weekend ever.” The responses to her decision have been supportive and complimentary of Spooktaculars past — calling it “the best show of the year” and their “best memories in dressage.” “You have created this show that everyone looks forward to,” wrote Lisa Bradley. “We all love you so much and have much gratitude for all you have done.” Blaufuss said she has many great memories of her years doing “Spook” but her favorite time is Saturday morning, costume day, when everyone shows up at 7 a.m. dressed in their Halloween finest. “It’s hilarious what some people show up in,” Blaufuss said. “There’s laughter all around. That’s how I know it’s going to be a great day.” For more on Spooktacular, visit crackerjackproductionsllc.com. To learn more about Breast Cancer Angels, visit breastcancerangels.org

FROM FACILITIES, A5 students’ academic performance as well as their health, well-being and excitement for learning.” OBR Architecture also performed a school facility analysis of each school site. Del Mar Union School District schools range in age from the approximately 11-year-old Ocean Air School to the nearly 60-year-old Del Mar Heights. Oliver said for educational architecture, 50 years is about the lifespan for facilities and in the middle of that lifespan, major upgrades are usually required. He also noted that there are a lot changes in education over 10 years so “even the newest school is old in the eyes of curriculum today.” The plan includes the complete remodel of Del Mar Hills and Del Mar Heights in phases, replacing portable classrooms with permanent buildings, modern learning studios and innovation center upgrades at all campuses and upgrades to multi-use rooms across the district. “Each school has an MUR that is insufficient for its capacity,” Rosenthal Hall said. School site specific improvements included expanding learning space into the outdoor spaces at Ocean Air, new classroom buildings at Sycamore Ridge and Ashley Falls, a whole new walkway entrance from Carmel Creek Road into Carmel Del Mar and getting the children’s dining area out of the “wind tunnel” at Torrey Hills. McClurg said the next phase for the plan will occur in November, when all principals will meet with parents at school sites to talk specifically about their campus needs and

get a conversation going about what stakeholders believe is important. The finance piece remains the district’s biggest challenge, McClurg said, and one that the board and staff has spent a great deal of time researching and analyzing over the last few months. In addition to their current facilities needs, they have to consider how much space they will need in the future — the district toured the potential ninth school site on Solterra Vista Parkway in Pacific Highlands Ranch in September. In analyzing district resources, staff has looked at the district’s Community Facilities Districts funds and the North City West School Facilities Financing Authority — McClurg said they received a legal opinion that the district is eligible for some funds based on what it actually cost to build Ocean Air 10 years ago. The district last attempted a general obligation bond in 2012, which received 53 percent of the vote. The board decided against placing a bond on the 2016 ballot after a survey showed only 53 percent agreed that the district had facilities needs. The survey tested the ballot language on a $135 million bond and 57 percent said they would vote “yes” with 10 percent of the undecided “leaning yes.” The board agreed that they needed to do more community outreach and education about their facilities needs. The district did not have a master plan in place at the time of the last bond vote in 2012. “Some very important decisions need to be made in the not-so-distant future by this board so we are doing our diligence,” McClurg said.

Correction The Sept. 28 article “Del Mar is reimagining Scripps bluff preserve and North Beach” misstated the status of the Watermark project. It is under environmental review and has a public hearing with the city Planning Commission on Oct. 10.

FROM LETTERS, A18 really care about preserving this incredibly special place are not hyper-careful, the developers with the approval of the Del Mar city government will effectively be allowed to annex unfettered access and use of the preserve, solely for their advantage and private profit. Swamped by people, this iconic space will be destroyed! The Del Mar Resort Specific Plan EIR Notice of Preparation, as released by the City of Del Mar 9/27/2017, shows numerous trails from the development in the Bluff Preserve – this cannot be

FROM SIGNS, A19 school traffic from Pacific Trails Middle School, Canyon Crest Academy and Solana Ranch Elementary School as well as nearby Cathedral Catholic High School and Sycamore Ridge School. The new park and recreation center will also be added to the mix as it is expected to completed by September 2018. “To have all those homes funnel out onto that street, I don’t know how that didn’t get thought-out more,”

permitted to happen. Currently there is the unbroken chain link fence protecting the space from the north with no access point, the only access being from the beach below, with access prohibited from dawn to dust. It needs to remain this way, not opened up for the benefit of Zephyr Partners! This is the definition of preservation for James G. Scripps Bluff Preserve. What on earth is there to reimagine? Anything else is abandoning the intent for the preserve, this special gift Scripps gave to Del Mar and to all who love this beautiful tranquil place.. Hugh Cree Donnelley said, noting he wished there was another connection for Pacific Highlands Ranch to Del Mar Heights Road. Last year the board established an ad-hoc Pacific Highlands Ranch traffic subcommittee but they have yet to meet. Chair Frisco White said it would be a good time to start to meet as the board will only hear more requests for stop signs and traffic calming measures from residents. He said it would be more effective to consider an overall traffic plan for the area.

FROM HOTELS, A5 between them now. “We’ll work together,” said Neil Patel of Excel Hotel Group. Stephen Jones of Jones Ballard Architects said the original proposal for the Hyatt Place Hotel was 75 feet in height and they have reduced it to 60 feet. The building will feature stone and glass elements, smooth stucco with stainless steel reveals breaking up the massing, large glass windows in the lobby space and accentuating details such as lighting, wood, trellises and rough cut stone to add interest. The Excel Group’s hotel is close to approval with the city and expects to be approved within the next month. Father-son developers Fred and Hunter Oliver, who also built the neighboring Residence Inn, are proposing the hotel development

FROM SERVICE, A7 could’ve just been another checkbox on the college apps, into a transformative experience,”Aadil said. "As a teen leader, I seek to inspire people. I want to help turn the spark of motivation that lives inside of all of us into a raging fire, a fire that we use to fuel our actions and fulfill our dreams. I encourage my friends to volunteer, and strive to show them the value that their work has.” In addition to the inspirational speakers, the summit will also have workshops focusing on one of the

next door. In the space between Hampton Inn and the new project, they are proposing a six-story, 123-room hotel, a four-story office building with a 5,400-square-foot restaurant and a subterranean parking garage. Since they were last before the planning board, the Olivers have brought on a new architect, Darrel Fullbright of Gensler, which has resulted in a more modern approach to the architecture with elements of stone and glass. They have also reduced the heights down from the originally proposed 95 feet, preserving the views of the bluffs. Despite the reduction in height, the Olivers will still be requesting a height variance as the office building is proposed at 72 feet and the hotel at 76 feet — the maximum allowed in the zone is 60 feet. motivating factors for volunteering: College, friends, serving, committing, leading, impact and change the world. The expo will allow teens to network with over 50 nonprofits and there will also be collaborative service projects and free giveaways to thank teens for their dedication to volunteering. Registration for the summit is free through the generosity of the Jim Joseph Foundation, Jewish Federation of San Diego County and the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center.

FROM RACING, A18 building enough content to, ahem, choke a horse. When the day arrived, a reality emerged as quickly as a frisky colt firing from the starting gate. “We’ll do features on owners, features on jockeys, features on Hollywood Park, features on the history of racing,” Enberg said. “Well, we used about one-tenth of those. When a race ends, you summarize it, analyze it, go to commercial, come back and interview the jockey, give the tote board results, show them awarding the trophy, another commercial. By the time you come back, the horses are leaving the paddock for the next race. “A lot of really terrific material was left in the can and never saw air. So that was one of the learning experiences. The races took care of themselves.” The miscalculation created the opportunity of a lifetime for Tom Hammond, who leveraged that singularly special day to become one of sports televisions most versatile talents. Hammond, who worked for local NBC affiliate WLEX in Lexington, Ky., had met Enberg through coverage of Kentucky basketball when Enberg worked the sideline with Billy Packer and Al McGuire. One day, the trio had nearly six hours to kill as they waited for a flight to another game. Enberg asked Hammond for ideas about how to spend the time. The fellow broadcaster used his connections to set up a private visit with superhorse Secretariat at legendary Claiborne Farm. Those interactions, and Hammond’s work as the voice of the famed Keeneland Sale, led Enberg to push for the man with roots in Thoroughbred country to be a part of the initial team. Hammond suggested a feature on Wild Again, a 31-1 longshot in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. No one thought the horse, which finished third in a lead-up allowance race, had a prayer in a

FROM SUTTON, A19 With that in mind, what happened at the Sept. 14 San Dieguito Union High School District board meeting was a new low, even for SDUHSD board meetings that have become more tumultuous and disorderly over the past year or so. Speaker after speaker criticized one individual by name, with accusatory finger-pointing and vitriolic fury. Parent Wendy Gumb, the recipient of this unadulterated anger, sat in the back of the room while audience members clapped, whistled and cheered at the conclusion of every speech that vilified her. I understand that many people are upset at her for assuming her mission is to tear down the district’s foundations. And this outrages many people. But Gumb says these are false rumors, and explained her goals. “My objective is that our public school district demonstrates full disclosure of the transfer of money in and out of our public schools and that taxpayers can clearly follow the money trail all the way down to a program level at the specific sites,” she wrote

FROM CENTER, A1 and exhibits on the history of horse racing, craft beer and the county fair. The off-track wagering center will continue to operate in the other half. The ailing facility has for years paled in comparison to its heyday 20 years ago, with attendance typically one-tenth (or less) of its 5,500 capacity. Revenues have followed suit. Adding the concert venue and exhibition hall would generate between $1.2 million to $2 million in profits each year, officials say. Construction is set to begin in December in hopes of opening the new complex in the fall of 2018. “With the downturn in off-track wagering, we’re very excited about transforming this facility into a concert

star-studded field that included Seattle Slew offspring Slew O’ Gold. The enterprising Hammond saw the potential of a story about a group of gambling Texans who forked over a staggering $360,000 supplemental fee for one shot in one never-before race. Wild Again stunned the field — surviving an unforgettable three-horse, see-saw stretch fight — in arguably the greatest Classic of all time. “I was smiling to myself,” Hammond said. “Who was right about wanting to do the feature? I was told later that a bunch of NBC execs in a hospitality suite ran to the window and bet on Wild Again. “I was gloating a bit, at least internally.” That decision, along with a story he pitched on sidelined star John Henry, led to an offer of a full-time gig with NBC. The 73-year-old, preparing to cover speed skating at the upcoming Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, remains with the same network today. “One of those stories,” he said, “that changes your whole life.” NBC received some criticism, notably in a Sports Illustrated story, about focusing too much on Hollywood stars — rather than the everyday stars of Hollywood Park. In the end, though, it became known as a pioneering day that helped transform a sport. “I just didn’t want this to be for the horse racing aficionado who was going to tune in anyway,” Gonzalez said. “This was for people who wanted to hear Dick Enberg spin a yarn or Tom Hammond tell a story about Wild Again. We wanted to keep a bigger audience glued. “We got millions of viewers to tune in for something they weren’t super passionate fans about. We were all thrilled.” It wasn’t just Elizabeth Taylor taking a bow. – Bryce Miller is a columnist for The San Diego Union-Tribune

FROM SKATEPARK, A2 a big chunk of money when they see something tangible and know that they can do the donor tiles.” Total costs — including a proposed basketball court next to the skatepark — are expected to come to $821,000. (The basketball court, because of its $60,000 price tag, is being broken off into a separate bid.) The city has committed $541,000 so far, while the fundraising campaign has come up with more than $10,000. Solana Beach is pinning its hopes for the remaining $270,000 on the county’s Neighborhood Reinvestment Program. The County Board of Supervisors is expected to decide on the city’s grant later this month or in mid-November. If the grant comes through, city officials want construction to start early next year, followed by a grand opening sometime in the summer. While the city awaits word on the grant, the Solana Beach Civic & Historical Society on Oct. 13 is hosting world-renowned sports photographer Lucia Griggi for a presentation on the history of skateboarding titled “The Skateboard: the Good, the Rad and the Gnarly.” The event runs from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 13 at Fletcher Cove Community Center, 133 Pacific Ave. Other speakers will include Lenore Hawk Dale (Tony Hawk’s sister), Solana Beach resident Sean Glatts, who recently set a skateboarding world record, and Mayor Mike Nichols, who was a sponsored skater before coming to California.

in an email. After the lengthy public comment period ended for the High School Foundations Update item in the board packet, SDUHSD Superintendent Eric Dill spoke about speakers’ endorsements of the district’s foundations, calling them the envy of other school districts. “One of the reasons I’ve stayed here for 16 years is because of what I’ve seen in this room,” he said, referring presumably to the support for foundations and not the explosive jeering and angry speeches. Dill admitted that mistakes were made in accepting one donation in particular that didn’t follow board policy properly. “Did we make an error in not presenting this to the board in 2013? Yes we did,” he said. But he said there was no ill intent. Commented trustee Joyce Dalessandro, “There may have been some mistakes made, but were they so egregious?” Foundations are good, transparency is good, and mistakes were made. Lord knows, I’ve made plenty of my own. But the district seems on track to fix those mistakes and enact policies that ensure proper handling of donations and greater

transparency in the future. This is good. What was truly egregious were the unremitting personal attacks directed at Gumb. No private citizen deserves that kind of public treatment. Good intentions By the same token, the attacks on the motives of the anonymous donor (who’s not really so anonymous any more) were also unacceptable. Having spoken with him at length, I understand that his intentions were good. Yes, there were problems at the district level with the foundation’s agreement with the donor, and policies were perhaps not followed appropriately. But this was not his fault. The district seems poised to fix these problems and develop tighter guidelines in the future that more clearly define the roles of the schools, the foundations and the district – and clarify how the three should interact. Perhaps there needs to be a threshold level for significant donations to the foundations that requires prior school board approval. Perhaps foundation donations should be listed each month under the “Gifts/Donations” board agenda item. Perhaps a more clearly understandable

explanation should be provided of how and when foundations can rent or offer at no charge district facilities to outside parties. Whatever policies will be enacted, the district and board appear ready to address past mishaps so they don’t happen again. What’s even more important, though, is that we conduct ourselves, myself included, in a more civilized, dignified way. Board presidents might consider exercising their right to pound the gavel to stop the jeering and quiet an unruly crowd. A second warning should clear the room. Citizens should, of course, be allowed to speak, but public comment, and audience reaction to it, should be respectful. We must remember, as the saying goes, that the children are watching. In this case, unfortunately, they literally were. Maintaining civility and good behavior at board meetings in an era of incivility is a worthy goal. Maybe in our small microcosm of what’s becoming a toxic world, we can make small changes that begin to set things right again.

venue that will become a community asset enjoyed by our neighbors and the general public,” Tim Fennell, the fairgrounds’ CEO and general manager, said in the Sept. 29 press release. “It will generate jobs and we hope new horse racing customers as well.” Officials with the fairgrounds and Solana Beach say they are not revealing the terms of their agreement until both parties have signed a Memorandum of Understanding laying out those conditions. That is expected by the end of this week. One clue is that the press release scales back the number of concerts Surfside will hold. It references approximately 60 annual concerts after fairgrounds officials had consistently said it could hold as many as 90 concerts per year. The dispute stemmed from the DAA’s

decision not to put the project into environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which can take a year or more. The DAA had said the project is exempt from CEQA on the grounds that its expected traffic increase and other impacts will fall within thresholds laid out in its original permit. Solana Beach and Del Mar immediately objected to the DAA’s position, countering that traffic conditions and surrounding communities have changed dramatically in the decades since Surfside opened in 1991. Despite those objections, the fairgrounds’ board of directors approved the plan in May. Solana Beach filed suit a month later in San Diego Superior Court seeking to force the project into CEQA review. Fairgrounds and Solana Beach officials negotiated

privately through the summer. That culminated on Wednesday, Sept. 27, when the Solana Beach City Council met in closed session and agreed to a Memorandum of Understanding with the DAA. The following day, the city of Solana Beach informed the California Coastal Commission that the city no longer opposes the project. The California Coastal Commission is set to consider Surfside’s Coastal Development Permit at its Oct. 14 meeting. The staff report recommends approval with several conditions, the most significant of which require the DAA to gather data on parking and attendance for every Surfside event over the next five years, after which the Coastal Commission will evaluate the data before renewing Surfside’s permit.

Review: Amazing 10-year-old leads in SDMT’s magnificent ‘Billy Elliot’ BY DIANA SAENGER As a film critic of more than 25 years I can still say the 2000 movie of “Billy Elliot” remains on my top 25. It was nominated for three Oscars, 158 other awards received and 61 nominations. I was extremely excited to learn San Diego Musical Theater was staging “Billy Elliot the Musical.” The San Diego Musical Theater goes beyond producing incredible entertainment and this show not only held up to that anticipation of enjoyment but went far beyond expectation. The story takes place in England at a time where a yearlong coal miners’ strike has families distressed and irritated. This affects the men, the women and their children. One little boy named Billy Elliot (Charlie Garton) has found what he wants to do. However, his dad (Doug Tompos) wants him to learn how to be tough; just like the coal miners he’s around all day. So he wants Billy to take boxing lessons. Billy tries but doesn’t find hitting people fun. In fact, one day after boxing he noticed girls doing ballet in the room. He starts mimicking their moves and gets better at it every day. The entire cast of SDMT’s production of “Billy Elliot the Musical” is outstanding, and 10-year-old Charlie Garton as Billy Elliot is breathtaking. In almost every scene he’s dancing, ballet, tap, hip-hop and singing. He steals this show, not only with his singing and dancing talents but dealing with the drama of his dad not wanting him to be a dancer, but tough like him. Learning more about Rancho Santa Fe residents Charlie and his mother in an interview explained a lot about this young, exceptionally talented boy. Charlie not only learned his entire dialogue, but said all his lines with an English

He started with tap, then hip-hop, and last year added ballet. Charlie couldn’t wait to audition for the role of Billy Elliot.” “We had to memorize two scenes, sing a song, and perform a ballet audition and a tap audition. I didn’t have singing lessons until I

had to audition,” Charlie said. “It’s been such a wonderful and memorable experience,” said Francine. “I’m from Liverpool and my husband is from Manchester, so we have completely different accents. Charlie is one of four children. Two of them, Billy and Bobbie, were born in England, and Frankie and Charlie were born in San Diego so they were born here but have English accents.” Francine said the accent Charlie had to learn for Billy Elliot is a Geordie accent from Newcastle (where the musical and movie is set) which is completely different. Francine added that he practiced the

entire script (about 150 pages) himself and did not ask for help from her. Charlie said he received a lot of help from Neil Dale, the director, and from the dialect coach, Vanessa Dinning. Charlie also explained how he had the stamina for singing, dancing and delivering his dialogue perfectly. “Every time I go backstage there’s a water bottle for me on the dresser and in the bathroom,” he said. “Sometimes after the curtain closes I just lie down on the floor.” The show got a rousing applause and even Charlie’s parents and family members shed some tears. “He’s been brought up to be humble and grounded and he really worked hard for this show,” Francine said. “I’ve been teaching for over 20 years, performed on stages around the world and produced recitals with 800 children on stage, but I’m astonished and in awe when I watch my son’s performance as there’s so much pressure on him and he has just been amazing.” Charlie is being homeschooled. As of now his favorite subject is math. He often says he will be an engineer but right now he is just loving performing. Charlie’s next role will be Boo-Who in the Old Globe’s “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas!” When asked if he was excited about that, he gave a shout-out rousing “Yes!” ■ IF YOU GO: “Billy Elliot the Musical” Now through Oct. 8, Spreckels Theatre, 121 Broadway, San Diego.

Sam the Cooking Guy gets creative with tuna BY JOE TASH What do you get when you put Carmel Valley’s Sam the Cooking Guy together with San Diego-based Bumble Bee Seafoods? How about such tasty snacks as jalapeño tuna brown rice bites and ginger soy tuna lettuce wraps? The idea behind this new collaboration is to show that tuna can be used as an ingredient for much more interesting and even cool dishes than tuna noodle casserole or a tuna sandwich on whole wheat bread. That’s why the locally-based seafood company decided to jazz things up by bringing on celebrity cook Sam Zien as a sort of culinary ambassador for the flaky white fish that comes in a can. Bumble Bee wants millenials to see tuna as a hip, healthy alternative to higher fat and higher calorie foods. “We want to communicate our message of health and wellness to a younger audience,” said Chris Hartig, Bumble Bee’s senior digital marketing manager, who is working on the collaboration with Zien, known from TV and online shows as Sam the Cooking Guy. “We’re working hard to reach that younger audience through digital means and Sam’s going to be a big part of that (now and) in 2018.” Zien, who insists he’s a cook, not a chef, concedes that some people don’t think tuna is cool. “But it’s frickin’ delicious,” he said. “It’s just good when you do the right things with it.” The joint marketing effort between Zien and Bumble Bee was launched in August, after being planned since late 2016, said Hartig. So far, Bumble Bee has set up a web page featuring Zien and his recipes, as well as a series of videos featuring the TV cook touting Bumble Bee’s tuna. In mid-September, Zien went on Facebook Live to demonstrate how to make his tuna recipes and take questions from viewers. The full video of the live event can also be found on the website Bumblebee.com/samthecookingguy. Zien built a following by cooking simple meals that can be prepared quickly and efficiently, even by those who don’t have a lot of experience in the kitchen. His TV show airs on Channel 4 in San Diego, and on about 25 stations across the country. He also

Sam the Cooking Guy with Frittata produces a shorter online show, that can be found on his website thecookingguy.com. “I’m about encouraging people to get in the kitchen and cook,” said Zien, 58, a long-time Carmel Valley resident who tapes his cooking shows in his own home kitchen. He and his wife, Kelly, have three grown sons, all of whom attended Torrey Pines High School. Zien’s motto, “food that’s big in taste and small in effort,” translates into relatively simple concoctions that people can enjoy making themselves. He has created several dozen recipes that include tuna for the Bumblebee marketing effort, which are showcased on the seafood company’s website. His twist on the familiar tuna melt sandwich is a grilled cheese with tuna, using garlic butter to grill the bread. Then he finishes the sandwich by stuffing potato chips in the middle, providing a healthy crunch. The recipe categories include simple and healthy – think albacore tuna frittata and tuna pesto avocado toast – and quick meals, which include tuna and dill Greek pita pockets, cheesy tuna fish cakes and Spanish tuna and asparagus salad.

The collaboration began when Zien met the company’s president, Chris Lischewski, at an event, Zien said. The two chatted and Bumble Bee turned to Zien when it was looking for ways to appeal to a younger demographic through digital media. “Having a cool ambassador like Sam really helps us get out message out,” said Hartig. Other elements of Bumble Bee’s digital media strategy include social media blogs by high-profile millenials, sometimes called “influencers,” who also demonstrate recipes using tuna. “There’s so much that can be done with

our solid white albacore products, (the recipes) are not very complicated at all. It’s an ideal food,” because it offers 25 percent of the daily recommended protein total for adults, at only 60 calories per serving, Hartig said. So far, Bumble Bee officials said, the marketing campaign with Zien has been a big hit. “We are proud to be working with him in our home town,” said Dave Melbourne, Bumble Bee’s senior vice president for consumer marketing and corporate social responsibility.

Experience luxury apartment living in Altura Carmel Valley

La Jolla Cultural Partners

Altura Carmel Valley, built into the hillside of Carmel Valley off Carmel Creek Road, is setting the new standard for luxury rental living. “Luxury apartments are a lifestyle and one you choose if you’re looking for something that has a home feel with upgrades and a huge kitchen, but still has all of the services and amenities we provide,” said Karina Roman, Altura’s sales and operations manager. “Moving is such a life event. People who are moving are always looking for a new start and they’re looking for quality.” Altura began leasing in May and residents have already happily moved into the completed side of the community. When fully completed by December, there will be 181 total units spread out among three-level Italian villa-style buildings nestled on the green hill. Altura features brand new one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments starting at $2,800 a month, as well as three-bedroom, three-bathroom townhomes, which have their own garages. One thing that sets the property apart is its “stunning” views. Some of the units will look out onto a “gorgeous and tranquil” courtyard while others can see out to the ocean. One unit on the third floor leased the same day

The spacious Altura is loaded with amenities for residents, including two resort-style pools with cabanas, 10 outdoor barbecues and grills in the courtyard. Altura opened as the leasers were awestruck by the view — residents will get amazing views of the canyon and Carmel Valley’s open space. “You feel like an eagle,” Roman said of the soaring unobstructed view. Inside the apartments, all of the finishes are standard, including quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, wood-style plank flooring and carpet in the bedrooms. The kitchens all feature a five-burner gas stove and each unit has a full-size, front-loading washer and dryer. The bedrooms all have large walk-in closets

Layouts throughout the project cater to people’s different needs — some feature more of a “great room” style, while others have a more traditional dining room space. “It’s very unique with how we’ve used the square footage. There’s a lot of usable space, you’re not losing square footage to a hallway,” Roman said. The spacious Altura is loaded with

amenities for residents, including two resort-style pools with cabanas, 10 outdoor barbecues and grills in the courtyard. There will be a fully-equipped fitness center with a spin and yoga room, as well as a sports simulator and a bike repair shop. The pet friendly community features a dog park with a pet spa and local trails are easily accessible nearly out the front door. Altura plans to build community by offering residents many events such as Super Bowl and holiday parties, sushi-making classes and succulent workshops in its private clubhouse, also available for residents to rent for events. “I do nothing but new construction and this is probably my favorite property because of the curves and edges used on the architecture outside and the contemporary feel on the inside,” Roman said. Schedule a tour because, as Roman said, hearing the pricing alone doesn’t do the property justice. “Come in and see what we have to offer,” Roman said.

Accomplished women to speak at San Diego International Film Festival BY JEANNE FERRIS Gretchen McCourt, Frida Farrell and Jess Jacobs are the keynote speakers at the Industry Panels event at the San Diego International Film Festival this Friday, Oct. 6 at the Oxford Social Club in the Pendry Hotel. These are women who are making their unique mark in the entertainment and media industry. The Industry Panels often feature speakers who are professionals that work “behind the scenes” in the movie and television industry. Preceding these speakers is the Social

Impact Panel that covers social justice, local empowerment to refugees by filmmakers who document stories with impact. McCourt is the Executive Vice President of Cinema Programming of Pacific Theatres Entertainment Corporation. She oversees all film programming, marketing and communications of Arclight Cinemas and Pacific Theatres. During her tenure at Arclight, McCourt developed key initiatives that have supported the brand’s commitment to the arts and entertainment, including its involvement with the Women

in Film organization and Slamdance. Farrell is an actress whose real life story of having been abducted and held as a sex slave for three days while living in London has been created into a true crime feature film, Selling Isobel, which Farrell co-wrote and starred in as well. The U.S. premiere opens during the festival on Oct. 7 and 8 at Regal and Arclight theaters. Jacobs has recently teamed with producer Audrey Rosenberg to launch Invisible Pictures as a production company and also stars in Butterfly Caught, which screens its world

premiere in the festival on Oct. 6 and 7 at both the Regal and Arclight theaters. Jacobs has been in the film industry for 10 years with local ties to San Diego and is the daughter of Qualcomm chairman Paul Jacobs. The Business Side of Business Panel on Oct 7 covers production to distribution in the filmmaking industry by studio and independent film executives. This is followed by the ever-poplar Actor Panel which is often a sell out. Please visit sdfilmfest.com for details on ticket, day or film festival passes.

Local student shines in independent film BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY A young Encinitas girl is making waves on televisions and big screens. Kathleen Sheehy, 7, started doing commercials for brands such as H&M and BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse last year. “She has a very outgoing personality, and I thought it might be something fun for her to do because she likes to meet people and talk,” said Kathleen’s mother, Lisa Mouradian. “We met with a local modeling agency, and they said she would be perfect for commercials.” The second grader at St. James Academy in Solana Beach who enjoys putting on shows for guests in her Encinitas home was selected for an even bigger role last summer, when she became a part of the cast of the independent film “Love All You Have Left.” The movie — produced by Caroline Amiguet Sivertson and Matt Sivertson, of San Diego — follows a couple who becomes distraught after their young daughter, played by Kathleen, suddenly passes away. One day, the mother goes to investigate noise in her attic and finds a teenage girl who claims to be Anne Frank. Mouradian said the girl’s death is handled with class and enough ambiguity that the subject wasn’t too hard for Kathleen to tackle. “They don’t show the footage [of her dying],” Mouradian said. “They just show the little girl going off to school with her backpack and then the parents come home with their funeral clothes on. [Kathleen] knows what happens to her [character] in

Kathleen Sheehy the movie.” Because of the emotional aspects and dialogue in the film, the mother said Kathleen will not view the film until she is older. But for the girl, being a part of the film, despite its darkness, was a treat. “It was very fun,” she said. “We went to the beach and got ice cream. I loved that I got to meet people and have fun with the other girls.” The film is currently going through the festival circuit, Mouradian said. And just because Kathleen is a little too

young for the actual film doesn’t mean she can’t be recognized for it. She has participated in question-and-answer panels about the movie at screenings. At a recent private viewing at San Diego’s Museum of Photographic Arts, Kathleen dressed in butterfly wings and ran through the aisles when the movie finished to symbolize the child she portrayed, Mouradian said. “I flew through the crowd,” Kathleen recalled. “I loved it.” For more information about “Love All You Have Left,” visit facebook.com/loveallyouhaveleft

San Diego Baroque Soloists to perform in upcoming concerts BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY Concertgoers can travel back in time to the early 1600s to mid-1700s when the San Diego Baroque Solists presents a series of upcoming shows. The five-member group will perform at Saint Paul’s Cathedral, 2728 Sixth Avenue in San Diego, on Oct. 7, and at the Saints Helen and Constantine Greek Orthodox Church, 3459 Manchester Avenue in Cardiff, on Nov. 17. The San Diego Baroque Soloists will be joined by the 80 voices of the San Diego Master Chorale, under the direction of John Russell, and add more string players at the Oct. 7 concert. Alison Luedecke, of Encinitas Ranch, who co-founded the group three years ago with head violinist Pierre Joubert, also of Encinitas, said San Diego Baroque Soloists was created to focus on early music performance. Luedecke, who plays the harpsichord, said despite the music being from a different time, the musicians and their audiences are still very enthused about the songs. “It’s very alive,” she said of the music that followed the Renaissance era. “A lot of [the music] has an improvisatory feel, which is always interesting to

composers from the period: Georg Phillip Telemann, George Frideric Handel and Henry Purcell. Luedecke said Telemann, Handel and Purcell each show variety within their compositions. “When you start comparing and contrasting the different composers of similar times, you’ll hear even more contrast and little quirks in motives,” she said.

WoW Festival heads downtown and beyond Oct. 19-22 BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT La Jolla Playhouse’s Without Walls Festival (WoW), a biennial adventure that has been bringing theater out of buildings and into the wider world since 2013, made a giant leap this year, moving almost all performances to downtown San Diego and beyond. As before, the four-day event will feature immersive, innovative, site-specific pieces by local and international artists. This year’s venues are as varied as the performers, including San Diego Central Library, The New Children’s Museum, Horton Plaza Park, and Bread & Salt Art Gallery in Barrio Logan. Here are five WoW Fest highlights, some of them family-friendly. For complete schedule and tickets, visit wowfestival.org 1) Under Construction: An American Masque This multimedia masque, presented by Sledgehammer Theatre and the UC San Diego Department of Theatre & Dance, is set in a pop-up banquet hall and features songs, dances and memory collages from then and now, mixing 1950s Norman Rockwell scenes with 21st-century settings by the late, great installation artist Jason Rhoades. Light bites will be available, too. — 8:15 p.m. Oct. 19; 7:30 p.m. Oct. 20; 7 p.m. Oct. 21 and 22 at Bread & Salt, 1955 Julian Ave. Tickets $29. 2) Trisha Brown Dance Company’s In Plain Site World-famous choreographer Trisha Brown, who died earlier this year at age 80, was one of

the founders of post-modern dance. The company she started in 1970 continues her commitment to nontraditional performances in nontraditional settings, and it will perform a selection of her works, specially adapted to two sites on campus: the Stonehenge-y “La Jolla Project” — part of UCSD’s Stuart Collection —and the Revelle College Breezeway. — 2 and 5 p.m. Oct. 21 and 22, presented by ArtPower at UCSD (5 p.m. performances followed by artist/audience talkbacks) Tickets: $35. 3) Gob Squad Arts Collective’s Super Night Shot A magical journey through the night-time streets of San Diego by Gob Squad Arts Collective, a Berlin-based group of British and German artists, whose website declares that they “make performances and videos which search for beauty in the everyday, and look for words of wisdom from a passing stranger.” Viewers become co-stars in a movie that celebrates serendipity and unplanned meetings with strangers, where anything can happen, and usually does. — 7:30 p.m. Oct. 19-21 at Central Library, 330 Park Blvd. Tickets: $29. 4) FAETOPIA: A Faerie Flash Mob “Faetopia” is a 10-minute faerie-puppet flash mob designed and directed by master puppeteer Basil Twist, whose “Seafoam Sleepwalk,” featuring a giant puppet Aphrodite rising from the sea at La Jolla Shores, was one of the hits of the inaugural WoW Festival in 2013. Twist will be joined by members of the San Diego Guild of Puppetry and the UC San Diego percussion

SPONSORED COLUMNS DR. VAN CHENG San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263

Beware Phony Treatments for Spider and Varicose Veins It is inevitable that for any medical condition, theories will pop up for how to treat these conditions with home remedies, with cheap and practical solutions that “really work.” Most are schemes hatched by snakeoil peddlers, with no medical background, who are seeking to make some easy money by either pitching a product that can be put together in their home kitchen or can gain them followers (and advertising revenue) on social media. While some phony treatments will just make users look a little foolish, some can even be hazardous to your health.

1. Tomato Slices. Apparently, there is a myth that tomatoes will remedy varicose

veins if you slice them and put the slices on the capillaries, then wrap the area with a bandage. This is not true. Putting food on your legs will not cure spider veins. But you may smell like a salad.

2. Garlic and other herbal remedies. This time, the myth goes that the garlic should be consumed daily to remedy poor circulation and reduce inflammation (although one “remedy” does suggest making a paste out of minced garlic and alcohol and spreading it on your legs). Now, perhaps if you have varicose veins and are worried about attracting the attention of vampires, then by all means, paste away. But otherwise, this is nonsense. Garlic may have some useful benefits as part of any wellbalanced diet, but it is not a medicine any more than a tomato, and it will not “cure” spider or varicose veins. The same is true for herbals such as witch hazel and horse chestnut, which are purported to effectively treat venous insufficiency and prevent leg cramps and swelling of the ankles and varicose veins

but actually do nothing. Horse chestnut can even be toxic if prepared at home.

3. Cold showers. While cold water or ice packs can help reduce swelling in the legs, thereby reducing pressure on your legs, the coolness won’t cure your spider veins. But it may help swollen legs feel better after a long day.

4. Supplements. The supplements industry is huge. And of course, it is enticing to imagine that taking natural herbs and vitamins can keep you in the peak of health or even, dare to dream, cure what ails you. However, taking supplements, even the popular Vitamin K and butcher’s broom, will not “cure” spider or varicose veins. In fact, supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA, so there is no oversight on what gets put into them and how much, and studies are often not conducted on their effects or their general safety. Always be careful when taking supplements, and consult your doctor to see what would be of any benefit.

Look to these local authorities for professional guidance on daily living at lajollalight.com/our-columns/

5. Apple cider vinegar and natural oils. This is a popular one, that apple cider vinegar is a miracle potion that can keep you from ever visiting a doctor again. While it may have good dietary benefits when taken in small doses, it won’t fix your spider or varicose veins. Similarly, proponents rave about the miraculous restorative effects of oils such as emu oil and castor oil, but sadly, these claims are untrue. Notice the pattern here. Food or herbs or spices may be beneficial dietary components, but they won’t fix you, weather you consume it or rub it onto your skin.

6. Food can’t cure veins, but yoga can. No, yoga can’t “cure” veins. Low impact yoga may help with overall health, has been known to reduce blood pressure, and can help maintain a healthy body weight.

‘Of Mice and Men’ at NC Rep For its second play of Season 36, North Coast Rep in Solana Beach is reviving John Steinbeck’s classic drama novella-turned play, “Of Mice and Men.” The play electrified the opening night audience at the Music Box Theatre in 1937. Now, 80 years later, the story of these two iconic figures, Lenny and George, continues to be part of the country’s collective imagination — a tale of friendship in a world of solitude that is sustained by illusory dreams. Previews begin Wednesday, Oct. 18. Opening Night is Saturday, Oct. 21, at 8 p.m. The show runs through Nov. 12.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the Property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the Property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the Property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this Property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the Property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

My husband and I bought our first

car from Mossy! We received the utmost respect, total honesty, and a surprising amount of detail to be able to understand all the steps involved in buying a new

car. We could not have had a better

experience. Thank you so much! You have yourself customers for life!
