Del Mar council approves civic center design

BY KRISTINA HOUCK After months of concerns and contributions from the community, architects unveiled updated designs for Del Mar’s new civic center, and this time, they were met with praise. “I think this is very much hitting the nail on the head for creating the kind of feel that I think represents Del Mar,” said Councilman Terry Sinnott. The council brought the architectural team on board in April. Since then, The Miller Hull Partnership has welcomed community input, starting with a meet-andgreet in May. The design team quickly learned from the community that the civic center should be the public heart of Del Mar, fit within the context of the village and residential neighborhood, and provide flexibility

to allow for future expansion. Following the first gathering, another public workshop was held in June, the council and community provided further design direction at meetings in June and July, the Design Review Board initially reviewed the project in August, and the draft environmental impact report for the project was released in September, followed by a third public workshop with the architects later that month. Located on the site of the city’s current facilities at 1050 Camino del Mar, the proposed project includes a 9,250-square-foot city hall for administrative services, a 3,200-square-foot town hall for community gatherings and government meetings, a 15,000-square-foot outdoor public plaza for community activities, including the weekly Farmers Market, and

160 spaces for parking in both a two-level underground parking garage and a surface parking lot. City Hall and town hall will be connected by a breezeway with large pivotal doors. The roof of town hall extends over the space. Using the breezeway as overflow space, the town hall could accommodate up to 260 people seated at round tables. “I’m envisioning some really wonderful celebrations once we get this built,” said Councilman Don Mosier. “Everybody in town is invited — and we’ll have room for everybody.” The plan also allows for future expansion at the site, with a 4,500-squarefoot space in the northeast corner of the site, a See CENTER, page 22

DM school board discusses possibility of creating Facilities Improvement District BY KAREN BILLING The Del Mar Union School District board members took a closer look at School Facilities Improvement Districts (SFID) at their Oct. 28 meeting as they consider different ways to generate funds for the district’s unfunded needs. The unfunded needs from the district’s facilities master plan totals $126 million, while the district’s fiveyear priorities list is about $35 million in improvement projects. The biggest items on the prioritized list include creating modern learning studios at all sites, which would cost about $12 million, and replacing 25-year-old portables with permanent classroom buildings at Carmel Del Mar, Del See DISTRICT, page 22

SB City Council awards construction contract for Veterans Honor Courtyard BY KRISTINA HOUCK Solana Beach will soon have a special place to honor service members, after the City Council recently awarded a construction contract for the Veterans Honor Courtyard at La Colonia Park. The Veterans Honor Courtyard will include a wall with military seals and a water feature, honoring all U.S. veterans, living and deceased, as well as those who are serving at home and abroad. There will be a flagpole with a dedication plaque and bench seating. After a ceremonial groundbreaking last Veterans Day, Van Dyke Landscape Architects, the design team, finalized plans for the project and the city advertised for construction bids. Having received only two bids that exceeded cost estimates, the council rejected both in January. A revised project went out to bid again in September. The city received six bids by the Oct. 20 deadline. The Veterans Honor Courtyard is estimated to cost $296,000 and is mostly being covered by city and county grants, including $86,000 in Public Improvement Grant funds and a $100,000 grant from the County of San Diego’s Neighborhood Reinvestment Program. Community members also raised about $40,000 in donor tile sales, an effort that was spearheaded by former Mayor Tere Renteria. The See VETERANS, page 22

Alleged drunk driver to stand trial on PHR park committee working to fit community’s needs into recreation center murder and other charges in fatal crash BY KAREN BILLING The Pacific Highlands Ranch Community Park Committee has begun the planning process, tasked with finding spaces for basketball to badminton, children’s art to adult Zumba classes, in the new park and recreation center. The 13.5-acre park and 17,000-square-foot recreation center is planned for the open space next to Pacific Trails Middle School on Village Loop Road. The committee met on Oct. 27 with the park design firm Schmidt Design Group and rec center architecture firm Hanna Gabriel Wells to offer insight on what they would like to see in the site’s programming and facility. The architectural and design firms will return to the committee’s Nov. 10 meeting with a variety of ideas using the feedback received. The meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m. at Pacific Trails Middle School. Glen Schmidt, president of Schmidt Design Group, is asking the committee to consider three options for the park — one being a heavily programmed, traditional park with features like multi-use fields, two backstops, two basketball courts, five tennis courts, a snack shack, children’s tot lot, picnic shelters and social nodes. Another alternative is an informal/alternative recreation park with features like sand volleyball courts, a parkour course, a pump track for bike riding, skate elements and a dog park. A third option would include passive/

neighborhood uses like an informal amphitheater and contemplative spaces. While there was talk about synthetic turf, Schmidt said the park would not use artificial turf due to the community’s access to recycled water. Aaron Taraka, a student at Canyon Crest Academy, represented several teens in attendance who said they would love to see a bar park, with walls and bars for them to climb, jump and exercise on. “I think it could really differentiate this park from other parks,” Taraka said, noting that it would only require about a 20-footby-30-foot space. JT Barr, senior associate with Schmidt Design Group, conducted outreach with a number of local sports groups to understand what their needs and challenges are. “There was an acknowledgement that we’re park deficient and field deficient, so there is a need for recreational facilities in the community,” Barr said. “There is also a need for lighted facilities.” Building the backstops without an outfield fence allows more flexibility in how the fields can be used for sports like soccer, lacrosse and rugby. The user groups’ wish list included a snack shack, restrooms close to the fields, and storage. The rec center building will target activities like basketball, badminton, volleyball, martial arts, table tennis, arts and crafts, dance, exercise classes and meeting spaces. “Flexibility is key in the planning,” said See RECREATION, page 20

BY CITY NEWS SERVICE A man who was allegedly drunk and driving on a suspended license when he rear-ended a BMW stuck in traffic on Interstate 5 near Del Mar, killing the driver, was recently ordered to stand trial on murder and other charges. Abraham Beltran, 25, who has prior convictions for driving on a suspended license and driving on a suspended license with excessive alcohol, faces 15 years to life in prison if convicted. According to testimony at his preliminary hearing, the defendant was traveling between 81 and 89 mph when his Toyota Camry rear-ended the BMW on northbound I-5, just north of Del Mar Heights Road, about 7 a.m. last Feb. 15. The driver of the 2007 BMW, Oscar Me-

lero, 52, of National City, died inside an ambulance. A 2010 Volvo and a 2001 Nissan were also involved in the collision. Deputy District Attorney Cally Bright said Beltran’s blood-alcohol level was between .11 and .13 percent at the time of driving. Because of his prior alcohol-related convictions, Beltran had been warned about the dangers of drinking and driving, the prosecutor told Judge Charles Rogers. The judge found that enough evidence was presented at the preliminary hearing for Beltran to stand trial on charges of murder, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, DUI with injury and driving on a suspended license. Trial was set for April 18, 2016.

City to bump up facilities phasing plan for PHR; library design to begin in 2016 BY KAREN BILLING At the Oct. 22 Carmel Valley Community Planning Board meeting, the board heard about the update to the phasing of the Pacific Highlands Ranch facilities financing plan. An update was needed, as the rate of development in the community has exceeded expectations according to Oscar Galvez, city facilities financing project manager. The community park has been pushed from a 2027 opening to 2019, the new recreation center from 2022 to 2019 and the PHR branch of the San Diego public library system from 2029 to 2018, with $1 million for the design process available in 2016. One part of the phasing plan the planning board is pushing for sooner is the completion of Village Loop Road, which is supposed to loop by the Village, Canyon Crest Academy, the park, Pacific Trails Middle, future housing and re-connect with Carmel Valley Road.

Carmel Valley associate professor recognized for work at National University BY KRISTINA HOUCK Education has always played an important part in Dr. Maryam Davodi-Far’s life. From earning multiple degrees as a student to teaching others as an instructor, it comes as no surprise to many of her colleagues that the Carmel Valley resident recently received two awards for her commitment to education at National University, where she has worked for 13 years. “It’s great to be recognized,” Davodi-Far said. “It helps validate that I’m doing something right.” Born in Iran, Davodi-Far’s family relocated to Northern California when she was a child. She moved to San Diego in 1985 and has lived in Carmel Valley since 2000. At just 16 years old, Davodi-Far started college, studying anthropology at UC San Diego. After earning her bachelor’s degree, she went on to receive her master’s in health care administration from National University and doctorate degree in public administration at the University of La Verne. Now 42, Davodi-Far started her career in health care and medicine, having previously served as community relations director of Rady Children’s Hospital while she was a doctoral student, and later as executive director of the San Diego American Indian Health Center. In 2002, she joined National University in La Jolla as adjunct faculty for the school’s bachelor of public administration and master of public administration programs. Davodi-Far became a full-time associate professor and lead faculty member six years later. She teaches all courses in both programs, including foundations courses, grant writing, program evaluation and urban planning.

“What I love about National University is that many of our students are working and they’re still taking the time to invest in themselves,” said Davodi-Far, who was inspired by her father, a retired professor, to pursue education. “Education can open doors and enhance a person’s quality of life.” Like her students, Davodi-Far continues to enhance her life through education. She earned a second master’s in counseling psychology from National University this year, and is on track to earn her third master’s in human behavior from the school next year. “Learning is one of my hobbies,” she said. “I do it because I enjoy learning.” Since joining National University, Davodi-Far has also earned a diploma in cuisine commis culinary from San Diego Culinary Institute. In 2004, she founded a nonprofit called Cancer Coping Center. She also served as director of National University’s Center for Cultural and Ethnic Studies from 2011 to 2013. She has earned multiple certificates and has been commemorated for her work and community involvement from National University and outside organizations, including a Women Who Move the City Award from San Diego Magazine, a 10 News Leadership Award and a 40 Under 40 Award from San Diego Metropolitan Magazine, among others. Adding to her accomplishments, Davodi-Far recently received two awards from National University during an awards ceremony in September at the San Diego Marriott in La Jolla. For the third time, Davodi-Far received the President’s Professoriate Award, an award she also received in 2011 and 2014.

Pacific Trails student takes field Oct. 25 as honorary Chargers Girl BY KAREN BILLING Emily Newton, a seventh-grader at Pacific Trails Middle School, recently got to experience an NFL game from the sidelines as an honorary Chargers Girl. Emily helped root for the home team during the Sunday, Oct. 25, match-up with the rival Oakland Raiders. Emily’s mother, Beth, won the opportunity for her daughter at a charity event for the Ronald McDonald House. Beth was happy to support Ronald McDonald House, as the facility had helped her family so much when Emily was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes 2 1/2 years ago. “We really made use of the Ronald McDonald House. To have that place to go to, with such caring people and a caring environment, it really meant a lot,” Beth said. Since being diagnosed, Emily has had to grow accustomed to a whole new way of life. “It’s a 24/7 disease — you have to think about it Emily Newton, left, with a Chargers Girl on the Chargers every second,” Beth said. sidelines.

sounds an alarm if her blood sugar spikes, making it a great tool for parents. “It’s hard at times, and sometimes you don’t want to do it anymore,” Emily said of managing her diabetes. “For me, something that helps with my shots and pricks and tests is to tell myself ‘just get it over with.’ It’s much harder if you wait.” Emily’s special Sunday began with getting her hair and makeup professionally done at Qualcomm Stadium — perhaps her favorite part of the day. Before hitting the field, Emily was part of a pre-game ritual, linking arms in a circle of 28 Charger Girls who then went over the game plan, got pumped up and prayed.

“It was pretty fun,” Emily said. “Then we rushed out onto the field through the entrance with fire and explosions, and then the players came out.” Emily got to stay on the field for the game’s first half and enjoyed watching the Charger Girls in action as well as the play on the field. She had a close call when Bolts linebacker Donald Butler came charging toward her on the sidelines and she had to hurry out of the way. “They’re so humongous, “ Emily said of the players. “On TV you don’t get to see how big they are but when you’re standing right next to them, they’re monstrous.”

CERT program seeking volunteers Become a Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) member by joining upcoming training to learn how to become disaster-assistance workers. CERT training covers basic skills that are important to know in a disaster when emergency services are not available. CERT training is designed to prepare you to help yourself, your family, and your neighbors in the event of a catastrophic disaster. Because emergency services personnel will not be able to help everyone immediately, you can make a difference by using the CERT training to save lives and protect property. The 25-hour CERT training course covers these topics: Disaster Preparedness (i.e.: Home and Workplace Preparedness, Disaster Workers); Wildland Urban Interface / Fire Safety; Disaster Medical Operations (i.e.: Triage, Treating Burns, Splinting, etc.); Light Search and Rescue Operations; CERT Organization; Disaster Psychology; Terrorism and CERT. The fall training program begins Nov. 5. To register or for information, contact alewin@ encinitasca.gov or visit www.delmar.ca.us/CERT.

Studio Barre’s support for breast cancer awareness has a personal focus • Owner, recently diagnosed, fighting her own battle BY DIANE Y. WELCH October was Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and for the past seven years, it has been the tradition for Shannon Higgins, owner of Studio Barre, to advocate for the support of breast cancer awareness and research. Through her La Costa exercise studio, and sister studios in La Jolla and Carmel Valley, free month-long memberships for cancer survivors and donation-only classes helped raise funds for the Apryle Showers Foundation and Keep-A-Breast Foundation, which also partnered in a “Girls Night Out” hosted by Studio Barre at Solana Beach’s Belly Up Tavern. The night included a concert by Atomic Groove and dance performances by the Fly Girls. “It was a great crowd of people and was a tear-jerker, as people came and were able to share their stories about their own breast cancer experiences,” said Higgins. A year and a half ago, Higgins founded the Studio Barre franchise. Now her efforts to support cancer research have gone national, as all nine franchise Studio Barres offered similar fundraising programs through October. This year, Higgins’ personal efforts came very close to home: She was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and is fighting the fight against a disease where 99 percent of all women in the United States will be affected, whether through their own diagnosis or through a loved one who has been diagnosed. Higgins has started a Facebook page to share her battle with the disease. Titled “Shannon Higgins Fight Like a Girl,” her status postings include daily updates about her experience that are upbeat so that people aren’t really afraid of the disease. “And what more timely a month is there to get a breast cancer diagnosis?” she asked rhetorically. It was through a self-exam that Higgins was first alerted to her own breast cancer. She then tested positive for the BRCA gene, which increases the chances of breast cancer. She underwent four rounds of chemotherapy treatment, but had an allergic response to it. Consequently, on Nov. 18, she will undergo a double mastectomy; and because of the presence of the breast cancer gene, will also have her ovaries surgically removed. “This gene is something that the medical community is really focusing on,” commented Higgins. “Ironically, the breast cancer may be what ultimately saves my life, as ovarian cancer is not one that is easily cured.” Because of the discovery of the BRCA gene, Higgins’ mother is also going to be tested. If she has the gene, she will also have her ovaries removed, said Higgins. Every year since Studio Barre first opened its doors, Higgins has supported breast cancer research because she lost a cousin to the disease. “That’s why October is always a big month for us.” The events staged locally this year saw “a huge outpouring of support from people,” said Higgins. “We’ve even had nurses come in and explain how to give self breast exams,

Courtesy photo and I had clients who, because of this, actually found lumps. So I didn’t get cancer just to get cancer, I’m pretty sure I got cancer to help out other people.” Studio Barre in La Costa will be relocating to Encinitas in mid-November. Its new location will be on El Camino Real in the TJ Maxx shopping center. Classes involve focused isolation-based movements to upbeat music in a boutique setting and are suitable for all ages and abilities.

Solana Beach eighth-grader publishes book: ‘I really, really like writing’ BY KRISTINA HOUCK November is National Novel Writing Month, and last year, one Solana Beach student was up for the challenge. In just one month, 12-year-old Georgia Sims wrote her very first novel, “The Protagonist Chapter,” which is now available online at Amazon. com. “The final product is amazing,” said Georgia, an eighth grader at The Nativity School in Rancho Santa Fe. Published last month, “The Protagonist Chapter” follows Iris Eliz McKinney-Graves, a young girl whose mother went insane and was taken away, father left and sister has Down syndrome. The eighth-grader also battles boy drama and bullies at school. Inspired by her cousin, who works as a caretaker, Georgia came up with the concept. She wrote the story through a program that’s part of National Novel Writing Month. The “NaNoWriMo” program encourages young authors to write 50,000 words in November. The program began in 1999, and in 2005, National Novel Writing Month became a nonprofit. Last year, 325,142 people participated in the program, including more than 80,000 educators and students through the nonprofit’s Young Writers Program. Of those participants, 58,917 authors completed the first draft of their novels, with support from fellow writers and the ability to track their progress and develop a schedule through the program. “It helps you get the tools you need to

write a novel in a month,” Georgia said. Georgia learned about the program after reading an article in the Solana Beach Sun that highlighted a Torrey Pines High School student who also published a book through the program. “I thought it looked cool,” Georgia said. “I really, really like writing.” Georgia wrote the 178-page book last November when she was in seventh grade. She spent much of last year editing the book. Now 13, she finally published “The Protagonist Chapter” through CreateSpace in October. Although editing and revising her story was challenging at times, Georgia said every part of the process was worthwhile. After all, she wants to be an author when she grows up and she’s already published her first book. In fact, Georgia is already writing a second book. Just as she was encouraged to write a book after reading about another young writer, Georgia hopes her story inspires other would-be authors. “I hope that younger people like me will one day write a book, too,” said Georgia, who also enjoys art and plays basketball and volleyball at her school. “Writing a book is a big accomplishment. I’ve learned that you can’t do it all at once. It takes time. It’s a journey.” “The Protagonist Chapter” is available online at Amazon.com. For more about National Novel Writing Month’s program, visit NaNoWriMo.org.

Butterfly mosaic sculpture brings uplifting message to Torrey Hills Center BY KAREN BILLING The Torrey Hills community gathered Nov. 1 to celebrate the unveiling of a new sculpture at Torrey Hills Center, “The Unbridled Spirit of a Child.” Three forms, in brilliant yellow, shades of blue and swirls of multicolored mosaics, reach to the sky to touch butterflies, surrounded by new landscaping and a small trickling fountain. The sculpture gave colorful new life to an old concrete fountain that had been at the heart of the center on Carmel Mountain Road. Carmel Valley mosaic artists Helen Segal and Barbi Dorfan created the work, which features more than 2,000 ceramic butterflies painted by local neighborhood school children as part of The Butterfly Project. The Butterfly Project, which started at Carmel Valley’s San Diego Jewish Academy six years ago, seeks to create 1.5 million painted ceramic butterflies to represent the children lost in the Holocaust. “How lucky we are that we have this gorgeous artwork in our community,” said Cheryl Rattner Price, Butterfly Project co-founder and executive director. “It’s breathtaking.”

The new sculpture, “The Unbridled Spirit of a Child,” was unveiled at Torrey Hills Center. Right, Cheryl Rattner Price of the Butterfly Project with artists Helen Segal and Barbi Dorfan. Photos by Karen Billing On that Sunday afternoon, people filled the center around the new sculpture, receiving samples from center vendors and enjoying a performance from the little dancing butterflies from Scripps Performing Arts as they awaited the unveiling of the sculptures, which had been covered in sheets. There were gasps and applause when the sheets were finally taken away. Torrey Hills Center owner Gary Levitt said he was wowed by the number of people in attendance and was proud at the results of his efforts to transform a tired, 10-year-old fountain into something special. Levitt said he has hoped to create a community center, not just a shopping center. “There’s always someone sitting in this area. It’s become an important part of the community,” he said. Price said thanks to Levitt, Segal and Dorfan’s vision, the sculpture will have a lasting meaning for everyone who sees it. Butterfly Project Co-founder Jan Landau said the project is a “teacher’s

dream” and said that from its humble beginnings at SDJA, more than 130,000 butterflies have been created worldwide. “Children feel gratitude for the lives they have and learn the importance of treating others well so the world becomes a much greater place,” said Landau. The artists were also overwhelmed by the turnout, the culmination of a long summer spent inside the “quagmire of the fountain.” Segal, who sculpted the life-size forms before they were coated in pieces of colorful mosaic tile, thanked all of the center vendors and community members who supported them while they worked. “Everybody around us just encouraged us so much,” Segal said. “It was amazing to see the outreach from everybody.” Segal expressed her gratitude for Dorfan, her “comrade in art,” and said that the project was an enormous amount of fun. “Helen’s vision and creativity knows no bounds,” Dorfan said.

Torrey Pines JV defeat Mount Carmel BY WALTER BAYS It seems like the Falcon JV like to imitate their big brothers on varsity, winning in the last minute. At Mount Carmel the Falcons’ victory came in the final two seconds. The Sundevils got on the board first capping a 55-yard drive with a 14 yard touchdown pass. They went for the 2-point conversion and were brought up short by Jack Nelson. Torrey Pines’ first possession ended with an interception on their own 45, but Mount Carmel couldn’t complete a pass against the Falcon secondary and Lane Messier sacked the quarterback at midfield.

On 4th down the Sundevils faked the punt and the pass was incomplete, giving the ball back to Torrey Pines. In the 2nd quarter the Falcons drove 60 yards on the unstoppable running combination of Jacob Leone and Ryan Cesari. A 28-yard carry by Cesari took it to the 21 with 2:51 left in the half. Four plays later Cesari got around the corner and into the end zone to tie, and Tanner Wyandt’s kick put Torrey Pines ahead 7-6. Late in the 3rd quarter Mount Carmel drove 80 yards to retake the lead, but again the 2 point conversion try failed and it was 12-7.

In the 4th quarter the Sundevils threatened on the Falcon 46 but couldn’t find an open receiver and on 3rd down the ball was batted down by Cesari forcing a punt. That gave Torrey Pines one more chance, on their own 8-yard line with 2:56 left in the game. Quarterback Chris Temby completed passes to Cesari and Leone moving to the Sundevil 28. A pass was deflected incomplete in the end zone, and it was 4th down

on the 21 with 24 seconds remaining. A field goal wouldn’t be enough. All the receivers were covered, and Temby ran for the first down. Leone caught another on the 5 with 9 seconds left. Another pass was incomplete and 2 seconds remained on the clock. Then Temby found Connor Munoz in the end zone, and Torrey Pines won 1312. This week Torrey Pines hosts La Costa Canyon.

SD teen volunteers meet with veterans, service dogs TVIA-SD2 seventh-graders recently met with veterans of the Next Step program and their dogs. The veterans educated Next Steps Service Dogs empower and assist wounded the Teen Volunteers in Ac- veterans. tion boys on the needs of returning military personnel and the training required of the dogs to help them. They were able to demonstrate some of the techniques the dogs and handlers use to lift items, carry items, provide emotional support and assist whenever needed. There are more than 52,000 wounded veterans injured in recent military conflicts around the world. In addition to the physical injuries, more than 400,000 are believed to live with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Next Steps Service Dogs (NSSD) was founded by Sally Montrucchio to train service dogs to empower and assist troops. NSSD’s dogs are trained to assist, employ, and empower veterans and active military personnel with PTSD, TBI (traumatic brain injury), and/or mobility limitations. These service dogs greatly improve quality of life, independence, sense of unconditional love and protection, and allow veterans and active military personnel to take the Next Step forward in their lives. A certified service dog can cost $20,000 to $40,000 and clients can wait two to five years for delivery, depending on how many skills the dog can perform. But at Next Step, clients (Veterans) pay only a $100 application fee. Visit http://www.nextstepservicedogs.org.

Congressman Peters to speak Nov. 13 presentation explores links Nov. 12 at RSF Democratic Club among Jung, Shakespeare, alchemy

The Friends of Jung host a lecture on “Alchemy: The Coniunctio of Jung and Shakespeare,” with Frank Dowling, at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 13 at the Winston School, 215 9th St. Del Mar. Carl Jung devoted the last decades of his life to single-handedly rescuing alchemy from the ash heap of history. His writings make clear that the imagery underlying its mystery and lore are a metaphorically rich projection of the individuation process. In recent years, scholars have discovered and demonstrated that Shakespeare’s poetry and dramatic structure are rife with alchemical imagery. What we are only now beginning to glimpse is that the alchemical imagery deployed by Shakespeare evidences that his understanding of psychic transFrank formation — and, after all, his dramas are about the psychic transformation Dowling of his major characters — is one with Jung’s. Dowling’s love of Shakespeare began while spending 17 years as a Jesuit. Since retiring, he has been involved with the San Diego Friends of Jung, where he served as president for two years. Over the last 11 years he has actively participated in a monthly seminar on the Mysterium Coniunctionis, Jung’s masterpiece on alchemy. He delivered some preliminary reflections on this subject in an address to the San Diego FOJ in February.

Letters to the editor/Opinion An open letter to Solana Beach mayor Open letter with facts for SB on council’s review of donated carving Mayor Lesa Heebner regarding The following is my perception of the process employed for the Oct. 14 council hearing woodcarving project on the Wood Carving Project. For me it all started when I arrived and saw Geri Retman in the hallway developing strategy with Bridget Augusta, Vicki Cypherd and Kelly Harless; all members of your Anti Prop B team. I said to myself, if Campaign Manager Retman has organized opposition to the project, the fix is in and it is going down the tubes. In the meeting, Augusta, Cypherd and Harless, none of which are artists, described the proposal as crude, amateurish and out of scale. They all said the (nonexistent) temporary art restriction and prohibition against donated art should be enforced. In Council’s section, amazingly you and Mike Nichols repeated every argument by Augusta, Cypherd and Harless. Tell me again that this was not orchestrated by Geri Retman. If readers want to see how the fix is made, they should watch the video on the city’s website. They will see that despite a council rule that Speaker Slips be submitted before the start of an item, Campaign Manager Retman submitted and Council accepted her slip after City Clerk Angela Ivey announced the item and called the first speaker. Council rules do not apply to Geri Retman. Then despite a requirement to do so, she did not identify herself, as again council rules do not apply to her. Retman then repeated the arguments against. She had turned in her slip late so she could be the last speaker and ensure the council was not swayed by the overwhelming endorsement by the Public Arts Committee and two well-known professional artists. Council was then reminded how they should vote. And it worked and the project went down the tubes. You have said comment letters published in the Solana Beach Sun were suspiciously similar. Besides mine, there was a letter by Craig A. Nelson, who said, “How slimy is it that the campaign manager for several council members appeared at the hearing to influence the vote?” I am not related to Craig; as a matter of fact I do not know him, I have never met him. I only can conclude he saw the same Kabuki dance I did and came to the same conclusion. You asked if the discussion of the tree stump project might be out of proportion to the importance of the issue. On this we can agree. I must say the carving was not very high on my priority list, but when I saw it was defeated due to never publicly debated or formally adopted policies, and the Public Arts Commission and the Seaweeders, two outstanding groups dedicated to enhancing the beauty of the city, were steamrolled by Chicago-style machine politics, I felt I had to speak out. Lastly, you once told me “Remember, Geri never loses.” Well, she lost Prop B, but she did win this one, although it seems in so doing both she and the Council have received black eyes. Jim Nelson Solana Beach

Not surprising city has to advertise repeatedly for volunteers I was so impressed by Ms. Heebner’s ability to judge public opinion by just a few questions during a few walks, that I decided to do the same. During my daily walks the past week, I asked people what they thought about the City Council policy of not accepting donated art. 100 percent were astonished and troubled that such a policy existed. “Typical government — have a policy to spend money and make it against the law to save money,” was one comment. Ms. Heebner implied that the members of the Public Arts Commission are afraid to voice an honest opinion since they “felt uncomfortable voting ‘no’ on something when the artist, commissioner or staff members proposing it was sitting right there ...” This seems unfair and does an injustice to the members. No wonder the city has had to advertise repeatedly to get citizens to volunteer for these commissions if this is the City Council opinion of them. Susan McEachern, Solana Beach

Can’t we unite to fight noise pollution? The Del Mar beach colony stretching from the river mouth to 15th Street experiences different problems than other areas of Del Mar. On the hill, people struggle with view blockage created by both new buildings and by growing trees. For the beach colony, a big problem is noise pollution. Especially on the weekends, motorbikes, perhaps showing off, love to accelerate up the hill from the intersection of Coast and Camino del Mar. As they race between stop signs, it disturbs the peace of the corridor along camino del Mar. Apparently, we have a noise ordinance to protect people from the unnecessary noise. Could we get a group of us together to ask the police to enforce noise ordinances? Some motorbikes don’t make a huge uproar. Others have clearly modified their exhausts in order to get attention. In many similar communities, there are signs that ask motorists not to race their engines. People interested in doing something to try to reduce noise pollution in the colony area, please call me. Let’s do something. Richard Levak, Ph.D. LETTERS POLICY: Topical letters to the editor are encouraged.

Please allow me to correct the statements you made in the Oct. 14 City Council meeting and further correct statements in your Oct. 29 letter to the Solana Beach Sun. 1. You said: “The City policy has been to not accept donated art.” Where is this policy? Community Services Director Anita Edman is unable to find it. The policy must not have been in effect March 11, 2015, when the highly respected local artist Irina Gronborg described the woodcarving project to the Council. If it had been, I am sure you would have told her that the city has a policy against accepting donated art; and furthermore, the city has a policy which does not allow art on the Coastal Rail Trail which cannot be rotated to other sites. Instead you expressed appreciation and demonstrated enthusiasm for both the concept and the project. 2. You said: “The Donated Art Policy is not secret or unknown.” Apparently it was secret and unknown by thenCity Manager David Ott when he reviewed the procedures for submitting donated art with Seaweeder President Sandy Parrish during the month of May. The City Manager went further when he went with the artist, Tim Richards, and used a can of spray paint and marked how the tree should be cut to preserve a base for an art carving. 3. You said: “The permanent vs. temporary nature of the piece ... are criteria outlined in the Master Arts Policy.” The word “temporary” does not appear anywhere in the Master Arts Policy and thus is not a criterion. 4. You said: “We need to have more shade. The three trees just south of the stump are deciduous, ginkgo trees. They are going to be bare for half a year.” The truth is the three trees planted near the stump by City Public Works are Torrey pine trees. Furthermore, needing more shade in the city is not an argument for needing less art. I understand, Mayor Heebner, what happened here. You were instructed to object to this project. But in the future, please try to get your facts straight and not make up policies to fit your position. Mary Jane Boyd, Solana Beach

Clarification In the Oct. 29 story about Dreamworks COO Jeff Small speaking before an assembly at The Bishop’s School, the background on how Small came to participate was omitted. The school’s annual auction chairs were asked to provide a notable speaker to receive the Bishop’s Medal, address the student body at an all-school assembly (which is part of the Endowed Leadership Lecture Series), and have lunch with 10 attendees. These attendees would bid on the lunch with Small during the auction — highest bidders would attend. After a year of discussion with Small, a family member of a Bishop’s student secured his appearance at the school, as well as the lunch. The donor also acquired an unprecedented prescreening of Steven Spielberg’s new movie “Bridge of Spies” at The Lot to help raise additional funds for scholarships. Without the connection and generosity of the donor, the school would not have had this opportunity with Jeff Small and Dreamworks.

architect Jim Gabriel of Hanna Gabriel Wells Architects, noting they want to create spaces that can accommodate multiple activities. The committee can play around within the 17,000 square feet they have — some basic estimates of usage include 10,000 square feet, several multi-use rooms about 1,200 square feet and 900 square feet of storage. Lauren Mirro, the assistant general manager of the CV Recreation Center, said they shouldn’t skimp on storage and was a little concerned about the 900 square feet number given how full their storage capacity is. The gym’s floor would be lined to handle two cross basketball courts and one fullsize high school court, six badminton courts and several options for volleyball court configurations. Joe Young, the president of the San Diego Badminton Club, said he was happy with the court layout as he believes the facility will be used a lot by their group. Committee member Scott Curry said he was happy to see the studio space for classes like dance and Zumba, as those classes fill up quickly at Carmel Valley’s center. Resident Karen Dubey commented that nonpermanent walls (such as sliding room dividers) don’t work in rooms tapped for exercise and dance classes due to the noise disturbance — a quiet yoga class would not want to hear the music from the Zumba class next door. Gabriel led a discussion for the committee about looking at the design character of the building and how it will “fit gracefully” with the park. Gabriel said his company is committed to sustainable architecture — using solar orientation and prevailing breezes for daylight and natural ventilation. They also place a priority on opportunities to shade and protect outdoor areas so that they are comfortable. Their buildings aim to use sustainable materials and employ visual connectivity through windows, so

people can look inside the center and see what’s going on. “Nothing is more enriching than our connection to those around us and nature,” Gabriel said. “Sensible, sustainable building design is what’s needed to strengthen those connections.” The committee looked at examples of the firm’s designs, such as the Montevalle Recreation Center in Chula Vista, the SDGE Energy Innovation Center in Clairemont Mesa and the Ocean Beach People’s Organic Food Market, the only grocery store in San Diego that doesn’t use air conditioning, relying on natural ventilation. The committee liked the idea of creating a secured courtyard and usable outdoor space as well as the complex style of recreation center, breaking up the massing into separate buildings so it feels more like a community center. The committee members said they weren’t opposed to making a statement with a unique building, but they felt some of the designs presented were too modern and industrial for the community. “I want the glass and openness and airiness of the modern style without looking like I drew it,” said committee member Danielle McCallion. The committee remarked that they would like to see the modern look “warmed up,” and for the rec center, tie in more of the Santa Barbara-style elements of the Village and surrounding neighborhood and to create less bulk with articulated rooflines. The committee said they were looking for input on what the community is lacking, and resident Maria Videla said the one thing that is really missing is a lap pool, as there are none at the local high schools. “It’s not in the funding program so there will not be a pool at this facility,” Ranu said. More ideas for the new park and recreation center can be emailed to phrpark@ cvsd.com.

personalized 1-foot square tiles will be installed in the courtyard to honor service members. The council on Oct. 28 unanimously approved a more than $247,000 contract for Conan Construction, the lowest qualified bidder, and close to $49,000 in contingency costs. The contract includes three alternative bid items for items such as decorative metal arches, replacement of the bike rack and installation of a new fence along the west side of the park. To cover the remaining costs, the council allocated an additional $45,000 from the Public Improvement Grant fund reserves, which stems from the former Solana Beach Redevelopment Agency, and transferred $25,000 from the fund for repairs to the La Colonia Community Center. Even with the transfer of funds, there will be enough money to complete the anticipated repairs, according to the staff report. The contract allows for 100 working days, or 20 weeks, to complete the project. The project is expected to be completed by mid-May 2016.

Mar Hills and Del Mar Heights, which would cost about $13 million. Robert Anslow, a bond counsel from Bowie, Arneson, Wiles and Giannone, explained that in the simplest terms, SFIDs are a means of conducting a general obligation bond within a portion of school boundaries. “Only voters within the SFID vote and only the people in the SFID are taxed to pay the bonds,” Anslow said. The process to determine the boundaries is up to the school board. Once the boundaries are prepared they have to be approved by the county and the state. A resolution of intention must be prepared and a public hearing held before the board adopts the boundaries and forms the SFID to be filed with the registrar of voters for an election. Anslow said it’s not atypical that a hearing and adoption can all be done in one meeting. When drawing an SFID boundary, Anslow said the board has to consider how much money is needed and how much the area within the boundary can produce. “The smaller you draw your SFID, the less area subject to the tax, so you have a smaller revenue base for bond issuance,” Anslow said. The ballot language regarding what projects will funded by the SFID bond has to be very specific, Anslow said, and a two-thirds majority or 55 percent of the vote is required for it to pass. The board is considering SFIDs over a district-wide general obligation bond to avoid the “double dip” within the community financing districts (CFDs). The school district has two CFDs in which special taxes are already placed on homeowner’s property tax bill to fund schools and improvements. The district’s CFD 95-1 includes the Torrey Hills and Ocean Air communities and CFD 99-1 covers Sycamore Ridge and the district’s future ninth school if needed. If they do pursue the SFID route, board member Erica Halpern had concerns about the CFD schools’ needs beyond what the CFD can fund, as they would be excluded from the SFID funds. Board member Darren Gretler also expressed a concern that they could be setting up a district of “haves and have nots.” “That’s why community input is so important,” President Doug Rafner said. Rafner said it would ultimately be up to the community how much of the facilities master plan they would like to see implemented, which would inform any decision about going after a SFID or GO bond. He said the district should consider beginning the outreach process. Superintendent Holly McClurg noted that the district can and does assign general fund monies for projects that need to be done — in the case of the Carmel Del Mar modernization, they opted to dip into their reserves. She said the district just does not have access to the millions it would take to meet all of its unfunded needs. The district’s last attempt at a GO bond, Prop CC in 2012, was for $76.8 million. It received 53.7 percent of the vote, short of the 55 percent approval rate required.

ant. A La Costa resident, Maryon said he knows the communities well, since earlier in his career he came to the Encinitas station, now called the North Coastal Station, as a new patrol deputy in 1996. In 1999, he was appointed special purpose deputy for the city of Solana Beach, and in 2002, he was assigned to street narcotics and gang detail at the Encinitas station. Maryon was promoted to patrol sergeant in 2005. Maryon joined the department’s internal affairs unit a year later. In 2011, he was promoted to lieutenant and assigned to the Vista station. Under the department’s Special Investigations Unit, he later supervised the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area team, and eventually, the North County Regional Gang Task Force, prior to working in homicide. “I’m excited to serve the citizens,” Maryon said. “I just want to make their communities safe and get a good relationship going with them.” Maryon replaces Theresa Adams-Hydar, who will be handling internal operations within the Sheriff’s Department.

Adams-Hydar said she was promotionally transferred to the department’s Special Investigations Division, which consists of multiple teams that are responsible for the investigation of criminal enterprises relating to gangs, narcotics, organized crime, terrorism and the apprehension of fugitives, according to the department website. As a specialized captain, she oversees the division’s units all over the county. “I’m excited, but I was really disappointed to leave the North Coastal Station because I had a lot of irons in the fire. We were doing a lot of good stuff,” Adams-Hydar said. “I really enjoyed working with my community partners. Del Mar and Solana Beach were wonderful.” Maryon said he looks forward to continuing the progress Adams-Hydar made to improve law enforcement services for the North Coastal communities. He emphasized the importance of community-based policing, where deputies walk the beat and get to know the public. “The biggest issue law enforcement has now is just educating people on what we do,” Maryon said. “Getting out there, communicating with people and educating people on what we do, I think, will take us a long way.”

2,700-square-foot space at the south end of city hall, and 4,500-square-foot space in the southwest corner of the site. At the last workshop on Sept. 28, residents reiterated that the buildings depicted in early designs presented this summer were too boxy and modern, and ultimately, did not fit the community character. “We heard a lot of feedback that, I think, really changed our course,” said Mike Jobes, principal with The Miller Hull Partnership. The type of roof for the buildings became the singlemost discussed topic. In an attempt to maintain views and maximize functionality, the architects originally proposed a tipped roof that would run parallel to the upslope views of the Pacific Ocean, but many community members preferred a gable roof, or high-pitched roof, like those found in a number of downtown buildings such as L’Auberge Del Mar. After further discussion, residents settled on a hip roof for town hall, a type of roof where all sides slope downwards to the walls. In the updated design, Jobes shared the new look for town hall with a roof that resembles the hip roof of Union Bank, also located on Camino del Mar. The new town hall will sit at the highest point of the site on the corner of 10th Street and Camino del Mar. The highest point will reach the height limit. With the modified hip roof, the building is now the focal point of the property, but not too grand for the public space, Jobes explained. Inspired by the city’s iconic Torrey pines, the roof will be held up with a wooden truss. Like the truss, other materials will reflect the natural environment. Plans include an anchor wall for town hall and a stucco wall for city hall that could use leaves or even handprints for texture. The sandstone color resembles the ocean bluffs. During the last workshop, attendees also agreed that at least the food portion of the Farmers Market should be located on the outdoor surface parking lot on the west side of the site, while arts, crafts and jewelry vendors could still set up on the main plaza fronting Camino del Mar. Therefore, the architects better integrated the two levels with a stairway on the corner of the northwest section of the site. The plaza will be framed by a linear garden, eliminating walls and creating an inviting environment, explained Andrew Spurlock of landscape architecture firm Spurlock Poirier Artificial turf will be installed on top of the garage to

allow for a wide array of activities. Two Torrey pines will be planted on the property in place of existing trees, with smaller trees and trellises also scattered throughout the site for shade. After seeing the revised designs, three residents praised the plans and thanked the team for being responsive to the community. Two other residents also spoke in support of the plan just prior to the presentation. “I think I’m announcing my candidacy for presidency of the Mike Jobes fan club,” said resident Betty Wheeler, which drew laughter from the council and crowd. “There is nothing wrong with contemporary, particularly when it’s done as well as it’s done here,” said Del Mar resident and developer Jim Watkins. “I would like to thank Mike, the architect, for listening to the community. Something that was very, very unacceptable is something that I think is marvelous today.” “Wow,” said longtime resident Tensia Trejo. “I’ve waited a long time for this. Tonight I saw something very beautiful.” The council agreed. “I join the fan club,” said Councilman Dwight Worden. “I like the design. I’m ready to move forward with it.” Mosier said the design “accomplishes almost all the goals” the city set out for the design team. “I think they’ve been fully responsive to the community and the council,” Mosier said. “Miller Hull was chosen for this task because they have a history of listening well to the community. I think our faith in selecting them as the design team has been fulfilled.” With the council’s approval of the civic center design, the project will now continue to the design review process. The architects will present their updated designs to the Design Review Board during the Nov. 18 meeting, which is set for 6 p.m. at the Del Mar Communications Center. A Citizens’ Participation Program meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Nov. 19 at the Del Mar Communications Center. The meeting is intended for residents within 300 feet of the project site, but is also another opportunity for all community members to share concerns and ask questions. The Design Review Board hearing is slated for 6 p.m. Dec. 16 at the Del Mar Communications Center. The council will then hold an EIR certification and entitlement hearing on Jan. 4, 2016.

‘Eat, Pray, Love’ author Gilbert brings ‘Big Magic’ to USD By Lois Alter Mark There was big magic happening in the audience at the University of San Diego last week even before “Eat, Pray, Love’ author Elizabeth Gilbert took the stage to talk about her aptly named new book. Women were bonding over their admiration for the best-selling author, sharing their stories and making dates for coffee. One woman asked a group of strangers to hold her seat while she ran to the restroom, and they laughed when she left her handbag but took her copy of “Big Magic.” “I quit my job after reading it,” confessed Barbara Newton-Holmes, “even though she says not to do that. I started a company called Culinary Oracle, and I’m so happy.” Jill Van Meter is considering taking her own “Eat, Pray, Love” year to visit Italy, Iceland and Ireland. “I may call it ‘My Year of I,’” she laughed. This is the effect Elizabeth Gilbert has on women whenever she makes an appearance. Since “Eat, Pray, Love” exploded on the scene almost 10 years ago, the book has sold more than 10 million copies, and “Time” magazine named Gilbert one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Because she is so easy to relate to, women consider her their guru — and friend. So it was no surprise when she walked on stage

“I’m happy to say this book is fact-free,” announced author Elizabeth Gilbert to the audience at Warwick’s. The occasion was a new book titled “Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear.” and someone called out, “I love your shoes!” She quickly shouted back, “T.J. Maxx!” Sponsored by Warwick’s of La Jolla and the University of San Diego’s Illume Speaker Series, Gilbert was there to talk about her new book, “Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear,” and the sold-out crowd was there to be inspired.

“This book is my manifesto,” said Gilbert. “I’ve been thinking of writing it for 12 years, I’ve lived it for 25 years and I wrote three books in the time I didn’t write this one.” She explained that she wasn’t sure how to tell the story, because her personal relationship with creativity is based in “this weird combination of total magical thinking

— like Hogwarts-style mysticism — mashed with this deep Yankee pragmatism and discipline. I have one foot with the fairies and one on the farm.” Because she’s used to doing heavy research, she decided to become an expert on creativity, collecting hundreds of books about everything from the neuroscience of creativity to the link among creativity, alcoholism and suicide. “After 12 years and thousands of dollars, I looked at all of these and thought, ‘If I have to read one of these books, I will die,’” she said.

Rob Machado Foundation benefit concert back at Belly Up By Kristina Houck Local students have access to clean and free drinking water, thanks to funds raised during an annual benefit concert in support of the Rob Machado Foundation. For the fourth year, the Nov. 9 show is back at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, featuring intimate acoustic performances by Matt Nathanson, Brett Dennen, Grouplove’s Andrew Wessen and Timmy Curran. “It’s a special night of music with some great artists,” said Machado, a local surfer, environmentalist and philanthropist. Founded in 2004, the Rob Machado Foundation supports various environmental programs, with an emphasis on children’s educational initiatives. Concert proceeds will again benefit the nonprofit’s programs, including its effort to give people access to clean water while eliminating plastic water bottles. According to the foundation, 1 in 6 people worldwide has no access to clean water, and other sources estimate that number could be as high as 1 in 9 people. To provide access to clean water and keep plastic water bottles out of watersheds, the foundation has installed water-bottle refill stations at local middle schools and high schools, including Machado’s alma mater San Dieguito High School, now called San Dieguito Academy. Participating schools such as San Dieguito Academy and Canyon

“Kids should have access to water at school,” says Rob Machado, who was born in Australia and grew up in Cardiff-by-the-Sea. The Rob Machado Foundation benefit concert will be Nov. 9 at the Belly Up Tavern. Crest Academy pledge to eliminate single-use water bottles and also raise funds to donate water filtration systems for communities around the world. “Kids should have access to water at school,” said Machado, who was born in Australia and grew up in Cardiff-by-the-Sea. “But we’re not just putting in a refill station. Our goal is to inspire the kids to start a water club and help communities in need of

water.” With funds from last year’s concert, the foundation installed 10 filtered-water stations at schools in San Diego County, in addition to other programs, including donating two outdoor recycling stations to Ocean Knoll Elementary School and sponsoring Cardiff Elementary School’s annual Ocean Week. The annual benefit concert is the

foundation’s biggest fundraiser of the year. Event organizers expect about 700 people if the concert sells out, as it’s done for the past three years. “I came into it with the intention of creating something we could do year in and year out,” Machado said. “The idea stemmed from my love of music and my love of live music.” This is the first time Matt Nathanson, Brett Dennen and Grouplove’s Andrew Wessen are featured on the concert lineup. Singer-songwriter Timmy Curran was a part of last year’s event, which also included headliners the Goo Goo Dolls, folk rock band Run River North and local talent Austin Burns. “We are so fortunate to have a place like the Belly Up right down the street. It’s one of the best venues in San Diego,” Machado said. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the show begins at 8 p.m. General admission tickets cost $50 and loft tickets cost $75. A limited number of VIP packages are also available for $150 and include a 6:30 p.m. meet and greet with Machado and the artists. “It’s going to be a great night of music,” Machado said. “It’s a great lineup of people.” To purchase tickets, visit bellyup.com.

SB’s Real eatery still surprising with fresh combinations

La Jolla Cultural Partners

Despite a new name and an updated menu, there’s one thing that always remains at Real Bar & Bistro: real food and drinks. The Solana Beach restaurant opened as Real Food & Spirits at the start of 2013. Almost three years later, brothers and co-owners Mark and Colin Urquhart are still surprising locals with fresh ingredients and a fusion of flavors. The restaurant brought Executive Chef Willy Eick on board not long after the New Year and officially changed its name in the spring to better represent what Real Bar & Bistro is all about. “Really, what we are is real,” Mark Urquhart said. “Food are our ingredients. Our ingredients are not food.” With sustainability an important part of Real Bar & Bistro, most ingredients are locally sourced. The produce, meat, poultry and fish come from local gardens, farms, ranches and fisheries. Dough, pasta, meat, sauce, cheese and other items are made from scratch in-house. “We focus on clean food,” Urquhart said. “Our food is authentic.” Urquhart opened the restaurant with his younger brother after working in medical sales for a decade. After four years of planning and searching for a location, they selected the Solana Beach storefront, equipped with a high-temperature wood oven and another commercial oven. “This was something we wanted to do because it was an opportunity to really pursue our passion, bring some great people together and be part of the community,”

Real Bar & Bistro offers lunch and dinner service daily and brunch on Sunday. said Urquhart, a Solana Beach resident who grew up in Del Mar and Solana Beach. Real Bar & Bistro offers lunch and dinner service daily and brunch on Sunday. The menu features a variety of salads, soup, pasta, pizza and dishes with meat, poultry and fish. There are also plates to share that are perfect for a date, from fresh oysters to fingerling potatoes. “A lot of it is trying to trigger nostalgic

moments in people’s lives or taking my nostalgic moments and putting them in front of people so they can have the same experience,” said Eick, whose dishes are often inspired by his own memories. The wood-fired octopus pickle puree includes sunflower seeds, potatoes and IPA vinaigrette — items his father would enjoy while watching football. In an effort to “elevate” simple dishes, Eick

also combines unusual ingredients to create a unique experience. The fingerling potatoes, for example, are made with buttermilk, brigante cheese, honeycomb and mint. “It works well together, and it’s an uncanny combination,” Urquhart said. “We take risks. We’re trying to break the mold and take our guests on a journey.” Real Bar & Bistro is at 124 S. Solana Hills Drive in Solana Beach. Lunch starts at 11 a.m. daily with dinner service from 4-9:30 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Brunch is also available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday.

SB Storage boasts record of exemplary customer service BY DIANE Y. WELCH Transitions are part of life. Whether it’s relocating to embark on a new career, going to a four-year college, paring down from a family home into a condo, or world travel — chances are when you experience the change, you’ll need to store your stuff. For North County coastal residents, that’s where Solana Beach Storage fills the need, a company that proudly considers itself in the people business. “We are assisting people with big changes in their lives,” said Ellen Wayne, director of marketing. “We do things differently here, and we offer services that truly set us apart from other storage facilities.” Solana Beach Storage, locally owned and operated, is conveniently located on Stevens Avenue, where it has been since 1973 and was the first storage company located there. Community oriented, with more than 40 years since its founding, Solana Beach Storage is a member of the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce and shows its local involvement by lending its trucks out for events like Movie Night at Fletcher Cove, Fiesta Del Sol and Chamber events in Solana Beach. “We really enjoy being out in the community and meeting everyone,” said Wayne. The main factor in its longevity is a track record of unsurpassed customer service. Unlike others, it offers a free truck and helper — who assists with loading the truck — with every room rented. One of the biggest obstacles that clients face — customers who are located in Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, Del Mar, Solana Beach and Carmel Valley — is when they have to store their belongings, they are faced with how they are logistically going to transport them to a storage facility. “Well, we take care of all of that for our clients with a complimentary truck and help on board,” said Wayne. “We

‘How Food Affects Your Mood’ Nov. 18 at DM Connections

What you eat and drink, as well as how much and how often, can have a significant effect on moods — as well as on your energy level, mental health and ability to cope with stress. The nutritional connection with mood will be detailed by Vicky A. Newman, MS, RDN, consulting dietitian/nutritionist, during a talk, “Mood and Food,” sponsored by Del Mar Community Connections at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 18 at the Del Mar Library. Newman noted that mood disorders are common in older adults, with 1 in 5 suffering depression. She said common imbalances connected to nutrition are known to worsen mood and motivation. “We will discuss how a common genetic defect that affects about one in every 10 people, coupled with a diet low in certain B vitamins, can contribute to mental illness, including depression,” she said.

NORTH COAST - NOVEMBER 5, 2015 - PAGE B7

Filling a pressing need: Vitality Tap brings juices to PHR BY KAREN BILLING Vitality Tap is bringing good, honest juice to the Village at Pacific Highlands Ranch. The superfood-heavy juice bar opened recently with a sleek new store next to Starbucks. “Everything we offer is fresh and hand-crafted,” said owner John Giannattasio of Vitality Tap’s smoothies, juices, acai “Superbowls,” elixirs and cleanse packages. Giannattasio’s background is in fitness and nutrition; the former personal trainer opened his first Nutrition Zone store 12 years ago and now operates locations in Point Loma, Santee and downtown San Diego. Six years ago, the downtown shop had a little extra space and Giannattasio and business partner Aaron Bearce thought a good way to complement the store was with a juice and smoothie bar. That bar was just the beginning, and the offerings evolved along the way, the more they learned. “We wanted to focus more on what we believed in, nothing artificial, all organic, super-nutritious food that still tastes good,” Giannattasio said. Through much experimenting in the kitchen, he came up with the menu that would make up Vitality Tap 2 1/2 years ago. They built a following and a reputation that caught the attention of the Village ownership, and Vitality Tap jumped on the opportunity to expand. In addition to the new PHR store, a Vitality Tap opened in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, last week. “Being a business owner and working a lot, the juices help me stay healthy and have energy throughout the day,” Giannattasio said. “It can be hard to have the time to cook enough vegetables to get the important nutrients I need. Juice is a good way to add nutrients and vegetables to your diet.” Vitality Tap products are “honestly natural” — they do nothing to artificially extend the shelf life of their products, meaning no high-pressure processing or heat pasteurization.

Owners John Giannattasio and Aaron Bearce at their downtown location. Every morning they make their almond milk and date paste from scratch, and a wide variety of fresh vegetables and fruits double as store décor. “Our offerings are very extensive, and a lot of work is involved to make things from scratch. We don’t cut corners. We believe in our products and want to make sure we stick to our high standards.” The most popular juice on the menu is the Undressed Greens, which blends kale, romaine, celery, green apple, cucumber, lemon and ginger. Another popular item is the So Citrus, packing an immunity kick with grapefruit, orange, pineapple and Fuji apple. Once Crunch Fitness opens a few doors down, Giannattasio hopes gym-goers will come by for energy-boosting pre-workout energy drinks or for their Flexin’, a recovery smoothie with chocolate protein. Shooters on the menu help shock the system, such as the Detox Shot with cayenne pepper, coconut nectar, lemon, ginger, chaga mushrooms, moringa leaf and spirulina. The dandelion shot is also unique item, offering nutrient-dense

dandelion with lime and cayenne. “Our bowls are very popular,” Giannattasio said of their super-packed acai bowls. The bowls are made with unsweetened acai berries, which makes for a thicker-than-normal bowl that can be topped with superfoods like hemp seeds, goji berries and cacao nibs, as well as the favorites like almond butter, fruit, coconut and granola. Vitality Tap offers three cleanses designed for weight control, energy boosts, stress relief and mind clarity: juice feast, tonic teas and greens feast. The juice feast, their most popular, detoxifies the body with juice from more than 50 pounds of cold-pressed fruits and veggies. The tea cleanse uses detoxifying green, black, oolong and pu-erh teas enhanced with superfood elixirs to leave clients feeling light, refreshed and satisfied. The green feast is for most experienced cleansers and is considered the most challenging. Cleanses can be ordered for one to five days. Grab-and-go versions of juices are available, from small 8 ounce bottles to 16 ounces. Customers can also fill a Vitality Tap growler with juice. There were several delays in opening the new store, but Giannattasio is happy to join the growing Village lineup — he said it’s getting better and better every day, as more stores open and more people frequent the new center. “The community is amazing,” Giannattasio said, adding that he is especially excited about the number of schools in the area. “We have an opportunity to introduce juice to young students, which is huge. We’ve had such a great response and it’s so nice to see middle school and high school kids come in and get a juice over other options they have.” Visit vitalitytap.com.

LJ comedy show Nov. 11 to benefit rhino, elephant conservation efforts

The elephant and rhinoceros poaching crises of the 1980s in Africa have seen a resurgence in the past half-dozen years. Fortunately, modern technology, in the form of aerial drones, provides a breakthrough tool in assisting rangers in their ongoing battle against poachers. A fundraising comedy show will be held from 7-10 p.m. Nov. 11 at The Comedy Store in La Jolla to assist efforts to save the rhinos and elephants. A local conservation organization, Save The Wild Tech / Save A Horny Friend Foundation, headed by former Fairbanks Ranch resident, Valerie Kosheleff, educates, and more important, provides funds to buy drones for selected

game parks to preserve their still-healthy rhino and elephant populations. Kosheleff describes her organization as “a fun approach to a serious problem that takes innovation and creativity to a new level in the nonprofit world.” To that end, Kosheleff and her organization are hosting the fundraising comedy show to address the crises that by some estimates saw the loss of more than 200,000 elephants and 6,000 rhinos in the past six years. Comedians and writers for Comedy Central, including Greg Santos and Billy Bonnell, are slated to perform. Mangrove Swamp, a musical duo featuring South Africa’s Brian Murray, will open. Also, Richard Vigne, the CEO of Kenya’s Ol Pejeta Conservancy, will speak on how his conservancy has managed to successfully bring 100-plus rhinos back to East Africa.

Take a good look at eyewear by designer Alexander Daas BY DIANE Y. WELCH For enthusiastic fashionistas, accessories are just as important as apparel. And for those who sport sunglasses, new seasons promise new looks and unique statements. Del Mar’s Alexander Daas, luxury eyewear designer and founder and owner of Daas Optique, will be showcasing the new fall/winter collection of stylish Céline eyewear at his downtown Gaslamp location from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 7, and fashion lovers everywhere are invited to attend the free event. The “Champagne and Sweets Trunk Show” will spotlight the Céline fashion eyewear, born from design that embraces “unexpected lines and shapes as well as outstanding geometries” — according to the event media release — and also a preview of the entire showroom’s brand new fall collections. Céline is an international fashion powerhouse, said Daas, who was invited to be its exclusive distributor in San Diego. Paris-based Céline — acclaimed for its ready-to-wear fashion and accessory collections made up of handbags, shoes and jewelry — launched its sunglass collection just a couple of years ago, and since its release into the high-end eyewear fashion market, it has become the most sought-after brand. Its look is sophisticated and minimalistic, and it has been catapulted into the fashion stratosphere largely by being the favored eyewear of the entire Kardashian clan.

to late November — and may advance order items while receiving a 10 percent discount. An ambassador from Céline will be present with samples of the entire line, to inform and educate guests one-on-one, and to help them find the look that fits them the best.

The frames may be ordered as prescription glasses or as sunglasses, either with prescription or nonprescription lenses. The look of Céline is one that is bold and very geometric, with a retro feel. “There’s not really anything else out there like it right now,” Daas stated, “as there’s no real uniqueness today to the most commonly known named brands.” Made from heavy-duty acetate materials — some have metal components like metal bridge bars — the glasses are very durable. “And it creates a unique fashion look,” said Daas. Daas’s eyewear has been seen in movies such as “Need for Speed” on Michael Keaton, on daytime TV on the actress Jenny McCarthy on “The View,” and in upcoming fall shows like “CSI” and ABC’s “Life in Pieces.” His clients include other high-profile celebrities such as Alex O’Loughlin, politician Nancy Pelosi, athlete Brian Wilson, closing pitcher for San Francisco Giants, and more. Growing up in San Francisco, Daas is a second-generation optician. For a decade, he took over and operated the family store, turning it into one of the most reputable boutiques in San Francisco. He came to Southern California, opening his store in the Gaslamp District of San Diego in 2013 and most recently in Los Angeles. RSVP at DaasOptique.com/CelineSD to be added to the guest list and to select a styling appointment time slot. Daas Optique is at 431 J St., San Diego, CA 92101.

Dia de los Muertos celebration held in Solana Beach

A holiday that is celebrated throughout Mexico to honor the dead recently came to Solana Beach. Co-sponsored by La Colonia de Eden Gardens Foundation and the Parks & Recreation Commission, the city’s inaugural Dia de los Muertos celebration was held Nov. 1 at La Colonia Park. “Dia de los Muertos plans to share the rich, traditional holiday by inviting local residents together with the Solana Beach community at large to design and decorate altars on the bleachers at La Colonia Park, paying homage to loved ones who have already left,” explained Tracy Weiss, a member of the event committee. The event included chalk drawings on the sidewalk for impromptu displays, and live entertainment with performances by an Aztec dance troupe, a Mariachi band and a Ballet Folklórico ensemble. There was also a screening of the 2014 animated film, “The Book of Life.” Photos by Jon Clark. For photos online, visit www.delmartimes.net.

The Web of Reality: Spider Veins in Young Women Do you work out frequently? Do you have sudden pain or tightness or swelling in your legs? Do you look at the blue patches of veins on your legs and think, “But aren’t I too young for spider veins?” Think again. The truth is that women in their 30s can get spider or varicose veins. Women in their 20s can get them. And even teens

and—occasionally—children can get them. Think of spider veins—known by phlebologists as telangiectasias—as the niece of varicose veins. Varicose veins are the more dilated and rope-like veins under the skin, which are generally more painful, while spider veins result from the enlargement of the tiny subcutaneous veins, which are usually painless. Veins that deliver blood to the leg can get blocked for a variety of reasons—one-way valves can stop working, causing the other more visible veins to dilate, taking on extra blood. Women who work out frequently or stand for long periods of time are very likely to get some spider veins. Really, anything that increases stress in your vascular system puts extra pressure in your veins, causing them to bulge. Of course, if you experience a very sudden change to your veins, you do want to rule out deep vein thrombosis, especially if you experience leg pain or swelling. However,

this tends to be less likely in active people. They can be uncomfortable and unsightly, but spider veins pose no threats to your health (even if they occur on places such as the face), and you certainly should not stop your normal ﬁtness routine if a few spider veins appear. But you can never go wrong with getting a suspicious vein checked out to be completely safe. There are a few rare genetic conditions that may cause patches of veins to form on your torso and arms, and you will deﬁnitely want to get those checked to rule out a more serious condition. For active young women, the occurrence of spider veins is not something that can be completely prevented. Diet and sun exposure can play a role, and pregnancy greatly increases the likelihood of getting them. But the unfortunate truth is that some women are just genetically predisposed to get them. While it isn’t urgent to remove spider veins through laser therapy, many women, especially

younger ones, opt for this easy and painless treatment, especially since spider veins can worsen over time. The good news is that laser treatment is relatively painless and quite easy, requiring minimal recovery. You can have them removed in 5-30 minutes—a quick lunch break—and be back to work directly after. For many people, this is far more convenient that wearing support stockings regularly. The other nice factor to laser therapy is that there isn’t a “right age” to wait to get treatment, which is even safe for children, though they may be more sensitive to the pain. If you’re tired of your spider or varicose veins and are ready for treatment or just want some more information on laser treatment or sclerotherapy, contact us at 760-944-9263 or visit our website at www. sdveininstitute.com.

In Saturday’s running of the $82,150 Let It Ride Stakes, Godolphin Racing’s Crittenden (outside) prevailed over Acceptance by a neck.

Crittenden by a neck in Let It Ride Stakes BY KELLEY CARLSON In its first weekend of the Bing Crosby Season, the Del Mar racetrack broadcast the Breeders’ Cup World Thoroughbred Championships from Kentucky and held live racing. Among the highlights was Saturday’s running of the $82,150 Let It Ride Stakes. Godolphin Racing’s Crittenden (outside) prevailed over Acceptance by a neck, with Perfectly Majestic an additional three-quarters of a length back in third. With Martin Garcia in the saddle, Crittenden finished the one-mile turf race for 3-year-olds in 1:34.56. He is trained by Eoin Harty. In the only graded stakes race of the weekend, Uzziel led wire-to-wire to claim victory in the Grade II,

$200,000 Goldikova Stakes. Other winners during the first four days include Pacific Heat ($200,000 Golden State Juvenile Fillies Stakes) and Smokey Image ($200,000 Golden State Juvenile Stakes). On Opening Day (Oct. 29), the second Hollywood Fashion Contest at Del Mar Racetrack drew more than 100 contestants. Receiving prizes were: Best Celebrity Look-alike or Famous Character: first place (and Bing Crosby Grand Prize winner), Lynn Wheeler, Rancho Santa Fe; second place, Lori Shelton, Rancho Santa Fe; third place, Sarah Miller, Vista. Best Dressed Couple or Most Debonair Man: first place, Bob Ellis and Jenny Stoff; second place, Jeffrey Cobes and Lori Sovacchio, Upland.

Tips for an anti-stress Thanksgiving feast For some people, the best thing they can make for a stress-free Thanksgiving is reservations. For others, it involves orchestrating a seamless potluck with an equal division of kitchen patrol among dinner guests. That leaves the scratch cooks, whose labor of love is preparing the event solo. To those of you Thanksgiving do-it-yourselfers who follow the ethos, “Too many cooks spoil the broth,” here are some tricks and tips to help pull off a calm and successful feast that will minimize your kitchen time, and let you enjoy your guests and gustatory delights. 1. Game Plan. At this point, you should know your guest list and their dietary tastes and restrictions. Now plan your menu. Don’t leave vegetarians out of the hoopla, and go a creative step beyond the Tofurkey cliché. Some hearty meatless options that all dinner guests would enjoy include butternut squash lasagna, pumpkin, acorn or kabocha squash risotto, wild mushroom and fingerling potato strudel with béchamel sauce, or roasted red and yellow peppers stuffed with quinoa, pistachios and goat cheese. And for the gluten-sensitives, if you’re serving traditional bread stuffing, do a non-wheat version, like farro, wild rice or quinoa.

2. You Snooze, you Lose. Shop early — days before Thanksgiving — not only for your sanity, but for good and plentiful pickings, especially the turkey. If you choose a frozen bird, allow 24 hours of thawing time for each 4 pounds. So for a 12-pounder, keep the turkey in its original wrapping, breast side up for three days prior to roasting. 3. Prep and Cook Ahead. Some foods actually taste better two or three days after they are made, as the flavors and ingredients develop a rich complexity when they meld together. Many dishes can be frozen or refrigerated and then simply reheated for the Thanksgiving meal, such as pumpkin or other seasonal soups, cranberry relishes or sauces, and stuffings in casseroles or muffin pans for individual servings, along with traditional sides like smooth-as- silk sweet potatoes with crunchy nutty or cheesy toppings, and melt-in-your-mouth mashed potatoes with Greek or super-thick labneh yogurt and organic ghee butter. Fresh string beans, asparagus and brussels sprouts can be washed, trimmed and ready to steam, sauté or grill on Thanksgiving Day. Same with fresh herbs like sage, rosemary, thyme and bay leaves. The turkey, once defrosted, can

be brined in a special brining bag with a mixture of cherry apple cider or citrus juices, and a blend of black pepper, lemon grass, sage and coarse sea salt for a tender, juicy bird bursting with flavor. Of course, desserts can be made in advance, whether pecan, pumpkin or assorted sweet squash pies, along with cookies and biscotti that can be frozen and kept fresh, ready to serve. 4. Cut Culinary Corners. Yes, you’re allowed to take a few shortcuts to make your job a little easier as long as you don’t compromise the quality, health or safety of your dishes. Ready-made organic pie crusts and fillings, bread stuffing blends, prechopped onion, garlic, and herb mixtures are a few stress-reducing helping hands. Finally, take a sip of calming tea throughout Thanksgiving week to temper the jitters and soothe the soul. Passionflower, chamomile, lavender, linden flower, lemon balm and catnip are relaxing herbs to let you sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Have a happy and stress-free Thanksgiving! This divine sweet potato casserole with a dessert-delicious pecan topping is as easy as pie to whip up days in advance.

FROM GILBERT, B1 Instead, she ended up writing the equivalent of a letter based on her lived experience. “I’m happy to say this book is fact-free,” she announced to roaring applause. Gilbert read from the first chapter of “Big Magic,” prefacing it with her own definition of creativity, which is “any life where your decisions are based more strongly on creativity than on fear.” “And that’s a very hard thing to do,” she added. In fact, Gilbert admitted being scared of everything as a child — to the point where her father nicknamed her “Pitiful Pearl.” What finally made her able to write “Big

Easy Breezy Sweet Potato Casserole With Pecan Topping can be made in advance. For the topping: 1/4 cup melted butter (optional for the cholesterol-conscious) 1/3 cup brown sugar 1 cup pecan pieces or halves Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place sweet potatoes in their jackets on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Pierce each one two or three times with a fork, and bake for about 45 minutes or until tender. In a large mixing bowl, scoop out the potato flesh and blend with syrup, butter and spices until smooth. Transfer to an oven-safe casserole dish. Sprinkle nuts and brown sugar on top, and pour melted better evenly. Refrigerate until ready to bake in a moderate oven for about 25 minutes or until bubbly and brown.

Magic” was, of all things, Facebook. When she put out the question to her 1.3 million followers, asking, “Why are you not creating?” she received long responses listing every kind of reason, obstacle and excuse. “All I could see, written in invisible ink, with footnotes, was so much fear. And that became the essential conversation — the relationship between creativity and fear.” Her book offers so many practical ways to work past the fear and, at USD, her biggest piece of advice was to “just be 1 percent more curious than terrified. That makes all the difference.” She ended by reading Louise Erdrich’s poem, “Advice to Myself,” graciously thanking the audience — and walking off the stage in those great shoes.
