DMUSD board members assure parents that communication is a key priority By Karen Billing Del Mar Union School District staff and board members recently received a “frantic flood” of emails from concerned parents as rumors buzzed from school parking lots to the bleachers at little league baseball games. Parents were frustrated they could not find out more about the Del Mar Classified Teachers Association’s (DMCTA) meetings and votes on the 2013-16 contract update, and whispers persisted that class sizes were going up and parents would not be given

a platform to express their opinion. At the March 26 board meeting, district superintendent Holly McClurg said she personally answered nearly every e-mail and met with parents in groups on the weekend to ease concerns and share what information she could. “I was emailed over the weekend that there was a secret board meeting and that upset me because I wasn’t invited to a secret board meeting,” trustee Alan Kholos said. All jokes aside, Kho-

los said that he appreciates the fact that parents in the district feel comfortable enough to contact him to ask him what’s going on and he encourages that practice to continue. “We’re all members of the same community, just call us, let’s go have coffee and we’ll talk about it,” Kholos said. Parents have asked for greater transparency and the board members said that is their goal too, and that they are always available, even in the grocery store. Board president

Doug Rafner joked that as board members they have been instructed to hit the frozen food aisle last, in case their items melt while encountering and talking to members of the public. “I have realized we belong to a community that really cares about the district. To me, that’s the reason I’m sitting here now, we all care about our kids and the district,” Rafner said. McClurg agreed that passionate, involved parents are what make the district truly special.

“We always want to do better, any way we can communicate better we definitely want to do that, ” McClurg said. “I thank the parents for letting us know what’s truly valued.” Parents spoke up in a flurry last week as the initial tentative agreement between the DMCTA and the district went to a vote, with 108 opposed and 105 in favor. The contract language included the budget solutions agreed on in last

By City News Service A suspected drunken driver has been arrested on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter in the death of a 27-year-old woman who was killed in a hit-andrun crash in Del Mar, authorities said March 29. Rachel Anne Morrison and a friend were walking eastbound in a crosswalk at the intersection of Camino Del Mar and Coast Boulevard in Del Mar about 10:15 p.m. March 28 when Christopher Stockmeyer, 41, allegedly ran a stop sign and struck her at a high rate of

speed, according to sheriff’s officials and the county Medical Examiner’s Office. The other pedestrian was able to get out of the way, sheriff’s Sgt. Anthony O’Boyle said. Morrison, of Encinitas, was taken to Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla where she was declared dead shortly after arrival, according to the Medical Examiner’s Office. The driver fled the scene, authorities said. Sheriff’s deputies and San Diego police used evidence left behind after the crash to locate the vehicle and

Stockmeyer, its registered owner, at an apartment complex in La Jolla. Stockmeyer was subsequently arrested and booked into the Vista Detention Facility on suspicion of felony drunken driving, felony hit and run, and vehicular manslaughter, according to sheriff’s officials and jail records. Morrison was a PhD student at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego, according to U-T San Diego.

By Kristina Houck Solana Beach commercial property owners have a new way to finance energy-efficient improvements for their businesses. In a 5-0 vote, council members on March 26 adopted the Figtree Property Assessed Clean Energy, or PACE, Financing Program, which allows owners to make energy efficient upgrades to their properties through voluntary assessment liens. The council in October 2013 opted to participate in the Home Energy Retrofit Opportunity, or HERO, program, which launched in the coastal community, as well as the San Diego communities of Carlsbad, Lemon Grove, Oceanside, San Marcos and Vista, on Feb. 10. Through the HERO program, homeowners can make energy-efficient upgrades to their properties with low-cost, tax deductible financing paid through their property tax bill. Although the HERO program offers financing to both residential and commercial property owners, it focuses on residential properties. Figtree, another PACE provider, focuses on commercial properties. PACE allows up to 20 percent of a property’s value to be financed for energy efficiency, renewable energy or water conservation upgrades. The financing creates an assessment lien on the property, which is paid as semi-annual installments on the property tax bill. “It’s just another option for the citizens of this community to exercise if they so choose,” said City Manager David Ott.

Del Mar school district may SR-56 widening to be designed, studied need to build a ninth school • Study: Sycamore Ridge could be over capacity by 2016-17

■ For a variety of social events, see pages AA3, and B1- B28.

By Karen Billing The impact of projected new dwelling units in Pacific Highlands Ranch may prompt the need for the Del Mar Union School District to pursue building a ninth school in the future, according to some new enrollment projections. Benjamin Dolinka, from the Dolinka Group, shared DecisionInsite’s latest projection numbers with the board at its March 26 meeting. Dolinka noted that enrollment projections are tricky, more of an “art” than an exact “science.” They analyze everything from birth rates to student

generation factors from typical residences, attached and detached homes. He presented low growth, moderate growth and high growth projections for the district. Approximately 2,750 new residential units are projected to be occupied in the district over the next 10 years. A peak is shown in 2016, when a low growth model based on anticipated market conditions shows 421 new attached dwelling units to be occupied and 145 detached. A high/ moderate projection, based on plans See SCHOOL, Page AA2

By Karen Billing Relief in the form of a freeway widening may be coming sooner than originally planned for the congested State Route 56 (SR-56). San Diego City Council voted on March 25 for Caltrans to initiate the design process, various technical studies and reports for the expansion of the oft-clogged freeway from four to six lanes. District 5 Councilmember Mark Kersey said the sooner the project gets done the better. “I think the people that Councilmember Lightner and I both represent are eagerly awaiting the expansion of SR-56, which was congested the day it opened. Anything we can do to get the expansion underway before the SANDAG target of 2040 will be greatly appreciated,” Kersey said. “There are times when this is just an absolute parking lot.” In 2011, SR-56 had an annual average daily traffic of 55,000 between Interstate 5 and El Camino Real, and 78,000 between Carmel Creek Road and Carmel Country Road, the latter of which was the highest for the freeway since it opened. Portions of the 56 currently experience “significant levels of congestion” and it is currently in the community plan to be widened to a six-lane freeway. The corridor is expected to experience heavier congestion in the future due to increases in commuter traffic and proposed developments. Improvements such as high occupancy vehicle lanes will also be considered. Councilmember Sherri Lightner echoed Kersey’s statements. “The SR-56 widening has been a topic of discussion for a long time and 2040 is way too late to wait and get that done,” Lightner said. “I will partner with you on getting that done sooner, hopefully before I leave the council office as well. It is a very important regional issue.”

‘Have Trunk Will Travel’ elephants Shell Station on Del Mar Heights Road SCHOOL continued from page 1 to add car wash, convenience store will not return to fair in Del Mar from developers, shows Have Trunk Will Travel, the organization that provided elephants for display, education and rides at the San Diego County Fair, announced March 27 that it will not be returning to the 2014 San Diego County Fair. This follows a successful engagement at the 2013 San Diego County Fair, including the San Diego community donating over $5,000 toward Asian elephant conservation and embracing the “Save A Species — Ride An Elephant” campaign. For the past 30 years Have Trunk Will Travel has been a part of the San Diego County Fair, providing an opportunity to see and learn about the plight of the endangered Asian elephants. Kari and Gary Johnson of Have Trunk Will Travel informed the 22nd District Agricultural Association of their decision March 27. “We were surprised at the news we received from the Johnsons not to return to the Fair this year, but respect their deci-

sion,” said Frederick Schenk, president of the 22nd District Agricultural Association. “Having the elephants at the Fair has been a valuable tool in educating the public on the plight of the Asian elephant, which includes the threat of extinction because of the ongoing destruction of their native habitat, slaughter and the deadly herpes virus that kills baby elephants. “Have Truck Will Travel has an unprecedented conservation program, and an exceptional reputation in the industry. While the presence of the elephants has drawn controversy and criticism from those who oppose elephant rides, this decision will mean that the over 1.5 million visitors to the annual Fair will no longer have the opportunity to appreciate and experience these magnificent gentle creatures at the Fairgrounds.” For more information on the Del Mar Fairgrounds, visit www.delmarfairgrounds.com. — Submitted press release

Torrey Hills planning board to hold April 10 meeting on ‘Enhancement Project’ under power lines The Torrey Hills Community Planning Board will hold a meeting to discuss the “Enhancement Project” under the SDG&E power lines on East Ocean Air and Corte Mar Asombrosa. The meeting will be held on Thursday, April 10, at 6:30 p.m. at the Ocean Air Recreation Center, 4770 Fairport Way, San Diego, 92130. Those unable to attend may send their comments to kburton@san.rr.com.

DMUSD continued from page 1 year’s one-year memorandum of understanding, giving the district the flexibility to go up to the state’s maximum of 24 in K-3 and 29 in grades 4-6. McClurg said since the MOU was approved, 108 kindergarten through third grade classes in the district remained at 1722 students a class, with eight at 23 students and one class with 24 students. McClurg said the classroom with 24 students was due to a decision made by the school site. At the fourth through sixth grade level, there are 56 classes at 19-27 students, 17 at 28:1 and one class with 29 students. McClurg said the classroom with 29 students was required to dissolve a combination class. “There are significant costs associated with the MOU expiring,” McClurg said, noting that the district would again be required to pay over class size payments (teachers

receive $10 to 20 a day depending on grade level for every student over the cap), shared contracts, increase in hours and paid compensatory days and conference days. McClurg said schools have always had the flexibility of going up in class sizes when the situation dictated, to avoid combination classes or to keep families whole, the district had just always had to pay for it. The numbers are almost the exact same as the previous year before the MOU, McClurg said. “What the district is trying to do is maintain what we currently have according to this agreement,” McClurg said, noting that the district’s intent is to maintain class sizes at grades K-3 of 22 and grades 4-6 of 27. “It’s not a matter of loading class sizes, it’s a matter of alleviating the pain associated with class sizes,” Rafner said. But as the process went on last week, parents and teachers were put at odds with each other, information leaked and parents felt “in the dark” and

“deceived.” “The process resulted in anger from a lot of parents and accusations of a lack of transparency in the district,” parent Suzanne Hall said. Hall pointed out other districts do it differently, such as the Vista Unified School District, which posts all the contents of meetings between the district and the teachers as they occur, what transpired and aspects each side favored. Jason Romero, assistant superintendent of human resources, explained that there are two types of bargaining — positional and interest-based. With positional bargaining, the teachers present their offer and then the district presents its offer and they go back and forth— those are the things that are posted on Vista’s site, he said. But DMUSD uses interest-based bargaining, where both sides come together as a team, hash out the details and present one joint offer. “We don’t have offers going back and forth. We

By Karen Billing The Carmel Valley Community Planning Board March 27 approved a remodel of the Shell Station at Del Mar Heights Road and Interstate-5 to include an automatic carwash and a convenience store stop. Owner Steve Thomas plans to change the configuration of his existing 1,800-square-foot building by taking out the three service bays and adding 720 square feet for the convenience store and the 900-square-foot carwash to the back. Thomas said the three service bays have become a bit of a “dinosaur” as business has changed and there isn’t as much need for them. “I think this plan will spruce up the station that was built in 1972,” Thomas said. Thomas said he believes the convenience store and car wash will be an improvement and a benefit to the community.

Matthew Frumovitz selected as principal for Solana Highlands School The Solana Beach School District recently announced the appointment of Matthew Frumovitz as principal of Solana Highlands School. From August through December 2013, Frumovitz served as assistant principal to Carmel Creek and Solana Highlands schools. Since Jan. 6, 2014, Frumovitz has served as interim principal for Solana Highlands School. talk and explore options and jointly put together one option,” Romero said. “It doesn’t carry any weight until it’s voted on by the teachers and to post before then would be premature and could jeopardize the process. After it’s voted on and ratified, it’s brought to the board to discuss.” Still, parents said they would like to see more open public discussion. “I really value transparency,” said parent Amy Sparks. “We should all work together to have the best district possible.” Rafner said in dealing with collective bargaining, there are limitations on what can and can’t be shared. He said he would be interested to see how far they can push transparency, but he doesn’t want to push too far and venture into something that would be illegal. McClurg said any time parents want more information they are more than welcome to request it. “If there’s something not easy to find, let us know,” McClurg said. “We

really want to be open with all the business going on in the district.” At the meeting, parents weighed in on the contract language as it moves forward. Parent Laura Alper said they would like to see a “hard cap” on class sizes and avoid jumping to 24 students a class, especially during the big changes involved with the new Common Core State Standards. “Avoid the use of loose language like ‘flexibility,’ ‘average’ and ‘intent’ that could lead to loopholes,” said Alper. She said she understands that the state standards are 24:1 and 29:1, but said she doesn’t necessarily think those are numbers the district should strive or settle for. Parent Jen Charat said she wouldn’t agree to a contract with the kind of class size flexibility that is being proposed. She said she feels that the stipend addresses that and treats teachers like professionals in her view.

that number could be 432 attached and 172 new detached units occupied in 2016. Dolinka said they spent an enormous amount of time analyzing the situation of Sycamore Ridge School, the school closest to the new development. With proposed affordable housing units being built in East Pacific Highlands Ranch, there could be as many as 1,188 students at Sycamore Ridge by 2023. “That’s why it may be premature to let the school site option be removed,” Dolinka said. “We still need to make sure Sycamore Ridge can accommodate new students. There are too many unknowns so we need to continue to hold that option for another elementary site.” Even with a low growth projection, the school may hit 587 students by 2016-17, which is over the school’s current capacity of 575. Moving the child development center out of Sycamore Ridge gives the school a capacity of 825, but even with a low growth projection, the school is projected to be at capacity by 2019 with 823 students. High growth projections shows they could have over 1,000 students from 2019 through 2023. Sage Canyon School, in another community with new developments in the works, is also projected to be right at capacity. “We can tell that you definitely need some type of modifications made in order to accommodate all of the students that are going to be generated,” Dolinka told the board. “There is a lot more work to be done with this information being the foundation.” The district continues to work on its long-term facilities master plan. Several outreach group and town hall meetings have been held and the plan was expected to be approved last month but has not yet come before the board.

(Bottom) The couple found two similar holes drilled into their tree last year (photo taken this week).

So someone is trying to do our and Rick’s tree in, and it’s quite upsetting.” In the meantime, the neighbors are collectively offering a $3,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the damage to the trees.

By Kristina Houck A native of Brazil, Renato Cordani temporarily calls Del Mar “home.” Cordani and his family are living in the coastal community while the 43-year-old geophysicist is on sabbatical. “It is great to feel surrounded by nature but with the comforts of the modern life,” said Cordani in an email interview. He noted that he and his family “fell in love” with Del Mar’s Beach Colony. “The sense of community here is very strong. We see people participating in everything around here.” Born in São Paulo, Cordani moved to Del Mar with his wife and two children in July. Although the family is leaving in June, they have made an impact on the community during their short stay. Cordani often swims past the buoys at the beach with his 9-year-old son, Rafael, to calculate their distance. When the pair noticed one of the buoys missing in February, Cordani offered to help replace the floating device. “In Brazil, sometimes the communities organize themselves to do something, but that is rare.

By Kristina Houck Residents at two Solana Beach homes recently discovered holes in the Torrey Pine trees on their properties. The homeowners suspect the endangered trees were poisoned. “It’s got some brown growth where it shouldn’t. It looks like it’s having some problems,” said Gary Coad about the roughly 60-foot tree on his property. He and his wife, Patricia Coad, have lived at their home on Glenmont Drive since 1985. This is the second time the Coads’ tree has reportedly been vandalized. Concerned about the browning of the tree, the couple hired an arborist last April. He discovered two holes in the Torrey Pine. “He found the holes,” recalled Coad. “They were drilled pretty precisely deep into the tree. We presumed somebody put poison in the tree because we have been having problems ever since.” The rarest pine species in the United States, Torrey Pine trees grow only in San Diego County and on one of the Channel Islands. The Coads have spent $950 on arborist services and $500 on treatments for their Torrey Pine tree, which was trimmed in December. To prevent further tampering with the holes, Coad filled them with wine corks. He discovered two new holes in the tree in early March. This time they were also filled with wine corks. “He [the arborist] said before we had these new holes, April through June would tell us if the tree was going to make it or not,” Coad said. “It was looking good, but now it looks like it has problems again.” After discovering the new holes, the Coads notified their neighbors. That’s when Richard Hendlin, who also lives at the intersection of Glenmont Drive and Lynwood Avenue, discovered three holes in his Torrey Pine tree. Wine corks had also been inserted in those holes. Hendlin informed the Solana Beach City Council and the community about the incidents during the March 26 council meeting. “They are the rarest pine species in the United States and are designated by the authoritative California Native Plant Society as a critically imperiled species, with a decreasing population trend,” he said. “You can therefore understand how unsettling it is for me to come tonight to report to you and the community that recently, on or about March 7-9, my neighbors, Patricia and Gary Coad and I, … were victims of intentional and willful criminal conduct when some person or persons attempted to kill our very old and very mature Torrey Pine trees, which we each have on our properties, by cutting and apparently poisoning.” Although he is attempting to save his Torrey Pine,

Fred Oliver, owner of the new 118-suite Residence Inn by Marriott that opened in July 2013 on Valley Centre Drive, briefly updated the board about plans he has submitted for preliminary review. Oliver’s plans are for the area where Valley Centre Drive ends in a cul-de-sac after it crosses El Camino Real, with two vacant lots by the Tio Leo’s Mexican restaurant. The lots are the last two pieces in

Pardee Homes’ “visitor’s center” assigned use by the Coastal Commission to provide basic services. Oliver said he had initial plans for two restaurants and a senior housing facility but that was not positively received by the city and, additionally, his Residence Inn is performing “much better than expected,” at 85 percent occupancy. His preliminary plans now include a 125-room, four-story hotel, two “fast casual” restaurants and an urgent care facility (possibly Scripps). Oliver said he will keep the board informed as the plans continue through the process.

Prosecutor Terri Wyatt departed DA’s office to run for former boss’s seat By Pat Sherman The third and final candidate in the district attorney’s race, Pacific Beach resident Terri Wyatt, met with this newspaper group recently to talk about her more than 26-year career as a deputy district attorney in San Diego County, and why she believes she would be a better “top cop� than her former boss, three-term incumbent district attorney, Bonnie Dumanis, or fellow challenger, Robert “Bob� Brewer (a private-practice attorney). A graduate of the University of San Diego School of Law, Wyatt touts her experience working everything in the DA’s office from ground-floor traffic ticket prosecutions to high-level rape, murder and gang violence cases. The daughter of a California Highway Patrol officer and a registered nurse, Wyatt spent six years as a division chief (the highest level management job in the DA’s office), overseeing felony case issuing and extraditions. Wyatt touted her role in prosecuting 19 people currently serving life sentences for crimes such as first-degree murder, sexual assaults and a freeway shooting. She was head of the DA’s Lifer Hearing unit when former La Jolla socialite Betty Broderick first became eligible for parole in 2010. Broderick, currently serving a life sentence for the 1989 murders of her ex-husband and his second wife, was denied parole for 15 years. Robert Doyle, who was then commissioner of the Board of Prison Terms and delivered the decision to Broderick, has endorsed Wyatt’s candidacy. Hired in 1986 by now deceased district attorney, Ed Miller, Wyatt said she worked her way up the ranks by following Miller’s creed to “always do the right thing.� She likens her career trajectory to that of newly appoint-

high-level endorsements in the race — she said she has more experience as a prosecutor than Brewer (also campaigning on his prosecutorial experience). Brewer, who also graduated from the University of San Diego School of Law, went on to spend seven years as a prosecutor in Los Angeles (including stints as a deputy DA and as an assistant U.S. attorney). However, Wyatt noted, after that time Brewer returned to San Diego to enter private practice, where he defended white-collar criminals such as Nancy Hoover, girlfriend and convicted co-conspirator of J. David Dominelli, whose La Jolla-based company, J. David & Co., bilked investors out of more than $80 million. Dominelli spent a decade in prison for his Ponzi scheme. Hoover served two and half years of a 10-year sentence for tax evasion by cooperating with prosecu-

Terri Wyatt ed police chief Shelley Zimmerman. “She’s 54; I’m 54,â€? Wyatt said. “She’s spent her entire law enforcement career in that department; I’ve spent my entire prosecution and legal career in the district attorney’s office. ‌ Shelley’s very no-nonsense, open and genuine and I’m the same way.â€? Though compared to her rivals, Wyatt may appear the dark horse — garnering far less money and

tors. (U-T San Diego reported last week that Hoover — now known as Nancy Louise Fletcher — donated $700 to Brewer’s campaign, a contribution Dumanis’s campaign has said Brewer should return.) “(Brewer) spent over 30 years in this county, in this community, representing high-level, very sophisticated fraud defendants,� Wyatt said. “I don’t think that’s the mindset people in the community want as their district attorney.� Wyatt — who retired from the DA’s office last fall to run for Dumanis’s job — notes that she “worked really hard� to help get Dumanis elected when she first ran for DA in 2002. “When Bonnie first came in, the office was in a very divisive way,� Wyatt recalled. “Bonnie came in and did a really good job at bringing people together, smoothing out kind of the ruffled feelings and

brought in some very good leadership models.� However, Wyatt said she watched the district attorney’s office become increasingly politicized under Dumanis’s leadership (a criticism Brewer is also campaigning on), pointing to what she considers inequitable treatment by her office in the South Bay, particularly when it comes to investigations of political figures. Wyatt also points to Dumanis’s decision to prosecute San Diego Police officer Frank White for the shooting and wounding of a woman and her young son during a 2008 roadrage incident. It was the first time in 13 years that a law enforcement officer had been charged with a crime for shooting someone while acting under the police authority. (White was eventually acquitted). “The Oceanside driver See WYATT, page A19

By Rob LeDonne It’s happened to all of us. We’re sitting at our computers, and a friend or family member sends over the link for a humorous online video. “You have to see this,” typically reads the accompanying message, and once playing the video does its part to make you crack a smile and hopefully laugh. If this has happened to you within the past five years, odds are one of the videos was the brainchild of Michael Gallagher, a 2007 graduate of Torrey Pines High School who runs the comedic YouTube channel “Totally Sketch.” “It started pretty organically,” explained Gallagher, who’s currently celebrating his five-year anniversary of making funny web videos. Growing up in Rancho Santa Fe and as a student at Torrey Pines, Gallagher had a deep interest in comedy and has worked at pursuing it in the intervening years. Since the launch of Totally Sketch in 2009, he’s racked up the views to prove his success, and his large collection of videos has netted Gallagher over a million YouTube subscribers and hundreds of millions of hits. In fact, one of his most famous videos — a raunchy yet silly skit called “Interactive Sex” — has racked up 108,000,000 views alone. “That one probably has a lot of views because of its title, but we do a lot of videos in the ‘interactive’ series, and it’s set up kind of like a choose your own adventure book,” Gallagher explained from Los Angeles, where he currently resides. What sets Totally Sketch apart from the many other channels that flood YouTube is that while Gallagher has a hand in every video, each one’s cast of actors changes to fit the sketch’s demands. For example, if a video needs an elderly man, Gallagher will cast an actual elderly man, instead of dressing someone up to fit the part. “This is different from what ‘Saturday Night Live’ usu-

Michael Gallagher Courtesy photo ally does,” explains Gallagher of the holy grail of sketch comedy television. “They have a certain cast of actors, and I think that’s limiting. Though, it’s probably the filmmaker side of me that thinks that.” Gallagher’s filmmaker side can be traced back to his time studying at the Los Angeles branch of the New York Film Academy. While there, he cut his teeth on everything involved with movie production, right on the Universal Studios backlot. “I learned quite a bit there,” Gallagher explains of the program that gives each student all of the resources of a professional filmmaker. The experience led him to want to pursue show business as a career, and throughout the rest of his time at Torrey Pines and beyond, he’s held a variety of random odd jobs. “I was assisting on everything. One of my first gigs was directing a commercial/music video for Sha Na Na,” Gallagher notes of the group from the movie “Grease.”

Shortly after graduating Torrey Pines, Gallagher began working on a daily webseries for an internet upstart, and then created Totally Sketch in 2009. “What really helped us was that a lot of people in the tech world with millions of followers were tweeting out the links to my first few videos,” Gallagher said. “From there, we made our own audience.” In Totally Sketch’s past five years of internet videos, Gallagher has worked with countless people. Among them, Keith David (from classic comedy “There’s Something About Mary”); Roger Bart (the Tony Award-winning actor from “The Producers”); and the members of the Good Neighbor comedy troop whose members Beck Bennett and Kyle Mooney (himself a 2003 graduate of nearby Scripps Ranch High School) are currently cast members on the aforementioned “Saturday Night Live.” In addition, Gallagher’s style of zany comedy has landed him highpowered Hollywood representation, as well as many fans in high places (including the actor Emile Hirsch, and Andy Samberg’s famed Lonely Island comedy troop). Gallagher is also a creative executive and co-founder of YouTube network Maker Studios, which just last week was purchased by the Disney company for $500 million. Explained Disney CEO and Chairman Robert Iger to The Hollywood Reporter: “Short-form online video is growing at an astonishing pace and with Maker Studios, Disney will now be at the center of this dynamic industry with an unmatched combination of advanced technology and programming expertise and capabilities.” Throughout it all, Gallagher realizes how lucky he is to have success in a career that genuinely interests him. “I’m doing what I love and having fun with my friends at the same time. What could be better than that?” Check out Totally Sketch’s Youtube page at: https:// www.youtube.com/TotallySketch

Kilimanjaro expert talks about his experiences climbing the tallest mountain in Africa during local event By Kristina Houck From Aconcagua in Argentina to the Himalayas in Asia, Ake Lindstrom has hiked some of the highest mountains in the world. Most familiar with Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, the avid adventurer has reached the peak of the 19,341-foot mountain 50 times. “Kilimanjaro represents something truly amazing,” Lindstrom said. “It’s an amazing destination, but it’s also amazing in terms of the impact it has on many lives. It’s a beautiful thing.” As the tallest mountain on the African continent and the highest freestanding mountain in the world, approximately 25,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro each year. Born in Kenya, raised in Sudan and educated in England, Lindstrom founded Summits Africa in 2007. The company provides a variety of set departures and professional outfitting services for adventure trips in East Africa, specializing in Kilimanjaro climbs. Lindstrom first climbed the mountain in December 1997 when he was 20 years old. He reached the top in six days. “It was tough,” he recalled. “The first time I went up, I was young and cocky. I went up it like a bull in a china shop, and by the third day, I was as sick as a dog. I realized that taking things easy is the best way. That’s the best secret.” Since his first trek to the top, Lindstrom usually chooses a seven-to-eight-day hike, which he also recommends for his clients.

Kilimanjaro has six starting points and three different routes to reach the summit, ranging in difficulty. He has led hikers ages 12 to 76 up the mountain. “It’s in the middle of the African Plains,” he said. “It’s in a beautiful country surrounded by wildlife and really beautiful people. … It’s just one of those amazing mountains, that if you set your mind to it, is doable by anyone.” Solana Beach-based Aardvark Safaris has worked

closely with Lindstrom for 15 years. The local company, which arranges custom safari trips, coordinates Kilimanjaro climbs with Summits Africa every month. Lindstrom talked about his experiences climbing and leading hikes during a March 30 event hosted by Aardvark Safaris at a Carmel Valley residence. “Each of those clients return impressed by the quality, professionalism, safety standards and comfort of their climb,” said John Spence, owner of Aardvark Safaris. “Hopeful climbers contact us from all over the U.S. seeking an ethical, responsible and, above all, safe climbing partner. When we work with Ake — having climbed with him ourselves — we know that our clients are in the best possible hands.” Spence noted that the standards set by Summits Africa sets the company apart from similar businesses. With about 400 employees, Summits Africa serves roughly 1,000 people each year. Summits Africa provides free bi-annual training for its employees. The company’s business model enables team members to start off as porters and advance their careers to become camp crew members, trainee guides, assistant guides, head guides, and eventually, trip leaders. Every guide at Summits Africa is a certified Wilderness First Responder. “People get a lot of training and opportunities in the Western world. In East Africa there is a lot of exploitation and opportunities are lacking,” Lindstrom said. “We’re heavily invested in East Africa. My mother and father live in Tanzania. I live in Tanzania and my wife is Tanzanian. This is our home. This is the place we love. This is where we live and where we’ll die. It’s our way of being part of the fabric of our community and trying to make things better.” Although Summits Africa specializes in Kilimanjaro climbs and Lindstrom believes everyone is capable of climbing the mountain, he recommended prospective hikers research the trip and train beforehand. “It’s the sort of mountain that if you’re serious about it, you can get there and most likely get to the top — as long as you prepare well and make a sensible selection on who you climb with,” Lindstrom said. “It’s an empowering experience. You take yourself to a whole different place.” For more information about Summits Africa, visit www.summits-africa.com. For more information about Aardvark Safaris, visit www.aardvarksafaris.com.

Next Friends of Jung event is April 11 The San Diego Friends of Jung will host a lecture, “In the Labyrinth of Secret: A Meditation on the Archetype of Secret and Mystery,” by depth psychologist and Buddhist practitioner Julie Sgarzi, Ph.D., at 7:30 p.m. April 11 at the Winston School, 215 Ninth Street, Del Mar. Sgarzi will explore the meaning and archetypal nature of the secret as it lives in the psyche, and, reminiscent of the Grail question, she will enquire into what or whom the secret serves. She will examine the interconnections between secret, mystery and the sacred, exploring how such archetypal experiences manifest in personal psychology as well as in cultural expression.

Ryan Plodkowski

It has been a busy few weeks for The Bishop’s School Vocal Music Department. From New York to Sacramento, a large group of Bishop’s students spent spring break singing. The 26 members of the Bishop’s Singers, the school’s audition vocal group, attended the National Youth Choir Festival in New York; while five Bishop’s students were selected to perform with the All-State Choir in Sacramento. The Bishop’s Singers performed at Carnegie Hall on March 9, with senior Laurel Styner of La Jolla being selected to perform a solo. Other Bishop’s singers performing at Carnegie Hall included seniors Anna Bloom of Encinitas, Karen Chisholm of Clairemont, Annmarie Delfino of Encinitas, Tatiana Elsheikh of La Jolla, Alejandra Gallegos of La Jolla, Colin Garon of Carmel Valley, Nikki Gold of Poway, Olivia Lafferty of La Jolla, Jack Mullen of Oceanside, Zachary Provost of Oceanside, Austin Quinn of La Jolla, Andrew Secondine of La Jolla and Anna Shuster of Encinitas; juniors Alexandra Appel of La Jolla, Topher Fluharty of La Jolla, Emily Gao of Carmel Valley, Vanessa Garcia of Carmel Valley, Eleanor Ghanbari of Carmel Valley, Shivali

Joshi of Carmel Valley, Matthew Killian of Mission Hills, Will Ortiz of University Heights, Adela Pfaff of Pacific Beach, George Saunderson of Chula Vista and Adeline Shin of Carmel Valley; and sophomore Douglas Burkhart of Del Mar. In addition to the Bishop’s Singers’ performance at Carnegie Hall, five students were selected for the California All-State Choir, sponsored by the American Choral Directors Association. These students advanced from the regional honor choir based on their audition scores. The All-State Choir performed in Sacramento on Saturday, March 22. The Bishop’s students chosen for this special honor included seniors Colin Garon of Carmel Valley, Tatiana Elsheikh and Laurel Styner of La Jolla; junior Eleanor Ghanbari of Carmel Valley and sophomore Samantha Webster of Point Loma. The Bishop’s Singers are under the direction of Louise Carmon, the School’s vocal music director. Jared Jacobsen is the group’s piano accompanist.

Solana Beach gardener shares tips with all ages By Kristina Houck A former art instructor and high school teacher, Andi MacLeod has always enjoyed teaching others. From children at the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito to her peers in the Solana Beach Garden Club, today MacLeod spends her time teaching others about gardening. “I love the feeling of sharing knowledge,” said MacLeod, a resident of Solana Beach for 27 years. “I wouldn’t call it imparting knowledge so much because someone always comes up with something that adds to the day for me.” Although she always had a passion for gardening, MacLeod didn’t truly learn the tricks of the trade until she took a compost class at the Solana Center for Environmental Innovation five years ago. “I learned so much,” she said. “When I learned how easy it was, I got all

Photo/Kristina Houck excited.” MacLeod shared her excitement with Katie Pelisek, president of Seaweeders, the local garden club. Also the landscape architect behind the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito’s Center for a Healthy Lifestyle, Pelisek encouraged MacLeod to share her gardening skills with children at the facility. “A week later she had a row of kids in front of me,” MacLeod said. “That’s the way it’s been ever since.” Opened in April 2009, the Center for a Healthy Lifestyle at the Harper Branch features a teaching kitchen, classroom space and an interactive garden, offering after-

school programming and summer camps for children, as well as classes for adults. MacLeod spearheaded “Garden Ambassadors,” an intensive six-week organic gardening program for children in second through sixth grade at the center. “Kids come to the garden for different reasons,” said MacLeod, who served as garden education coordinator at the center. “Some come in because it’s beauty and that’s what they want in their lives. Some come in because they’re like junior scientists and they study the bugs. Some come in because they’re excited about the food. They’re all excited about growing things. It’s still that fresh miracle for them.” After being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis last year, MacLeod shifted gears. She is now an active volunteer at the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito’s La Colonia Branch, which opened its own garden in November 2012. “Ever since I helped put the garden in here, I have just been pulled in this direction,” she said. “It’s an adorable design, and it’s very easy to use and manage for someone who is recovering from something.” From an hour or two to several, MacLeod spends five days each week tending to the garden. She works alongside children of all ages, who plant fruits and vegetables, which they get to eat during

Garden Snack Wednesdays. “When the kids built it, I was just awestruck,” she said. “There were kids of all ages who built these beds. They did it themselves.” The Garden Ambassadors program has since been incorporated into the branch’s leadership program. Through the program, older kids develop their green thumbs and share their knowledge with younger kids. “It’s a natural for kids who are already looking for ways to take charge and make a difference in their community,” MacLeod said. When she’s not volunteering at the La Colonia Branch or working in her own garden, MacLeod is often beautifying Solana Beach with her friends and fellow members of Seaweeders. The club, which reformed in May 2012, enables members to share information, hold garden tours and collaborate on beautification projects in the city. “People have fun in the garden,” MacLeod said. “It’s a chance to laugh, share ideas and know you’re making a difference.” For more information about the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito, visit bgcsandieguito.org.

By Kristina Houck At just 14 years old, Naomi Murray knows more about birds than most people. A graduate of Free Flight’s Junior Docent Program, Naomi shares what she has learned with visitors of the exotic bird sanctuary in Del Mar. “People don’t realize how smart they are and how much personality they have,” said Naomi, a freshman at University City High School in San Diego. “They’re ridiculously intelligent, and they’re just amazing.” Naomi is one of 20 children and teens who have graduated from the program since it launched two years ago with a grant from the Del Mar Foundation. The Junior Docent Program kicks off its third year during the week of July 21. During the five-day program, staff members teach children ages 12-16 about bird handling, nutrition and general care, and bird behavior. “They come in not ever handling a bird before and now they’re the docents helping people handle the birds,” said Theresa Rij, Free Flight’s avian specialist, education project manager and grant writer. Established in 1981 as a boarding and breeding facility, Free Flight evolved into an exotic bird sanctuary where birds and people interact, becoming a nonprofit organization in 2009. Located at 2132 Jimmy Durante Blvd., Free Flight aims to shelter, nurture, educate, advocate and celebrate parrots. “We’re the only open sanctuary in Southern California,” Rij said. Being open to the public and offering programs such as the Junior Docent Program not only educates the com-

munity about birds, it socializes the parrots, Rij said. There are as many as 40 resident birds at the sanctuary at a given time. All need interaction with people, especially those Free Flight attempts to rehome. “What really delights

In addition to volunteering at the sanctuary, Naomi is also collaborating with Rij on a children’s book series that will benefit Free Flight. Currently in talks with publishers, Rij is writing the books and Naomi is illustrating the pictures of “Abby and Friends.” Named in honor of the sanctuary’s 16-yearold hyacinth macaw, the series will educate children about parrots with proceeds going toward the nonprofit. “Free Flight has shown me a whole new group of really cool people and made me more brave to try new experiences,” Naomi said. “If you like animals, you should definitely consider it.” Parrot Day Camp takes place 10 a.m.1 p.m. April 1, 2, 3 and April 8, 9 and 10. Sessions cost $25 per day, $45 for two days and $65 for three days. Parrot Summer Camp takes place 10 a.m.-1 p.m. the week of June 23. Camp is $125 for five days. The Junior Docent Program takes place 10 a.m.-1 p.m. the week of July 21. Camp is $125 for five days. All proceeds support Free Flight.

the birds are people who get them,” Rij said. “It’s one thing to have people in wonderment in front of them, but to have them actually know them — that’s where the Junior Docents come in.” When Naomi first came to Free Flight last summer, she was a shy and quiet girl, Rij recalled. Today, Naomi visits Free Flight every Sunday to care for the birds, help staff and talk with visitors. “I regularly tear up when I leave on Sundays,” Rij said. “I can’t believe how far they come. They’ve gone from being a student to a contributor. That’s the way of the world. It sets them on the right foot going forward.” In addition to the Junior Docents, Free Flight is offering Parrot Day Camps and Parrot Summer Camp this year. Geared for children 9-16, camp sessions teach campers the basics about parrots. Naomi, who is also an artist, is helping Rij design the art component of the camps. “We’re excited,” said Rij. “We want to be able to replicate the success we’ve seen with Junior Docents and possibly, in the future, offer an advanced Junior Docent Program. “We want to be able to reach more people with all abilities and find a way to have their life touched by birds as well as have the birds be touched by them.”

•Author Laurie Itkin to speak at Carmel Valley Library April 15 By Kristina Houck Laurie Itkin became a millionaire before she turned 40. It all started when she decided to invest her $1,600 inheritance. “I was 24, totally broke and living in Washington D.C.,” Itkin recalled. “I had nothing. I had no car. I lived in a tiny apartment. … But instead of spending the money, I invested the money.” A Carmel Valley resident since 2004, Itkin details her story in her newly released book, “Every Woman Should Know Her Options: Invest Your Way to Financial Empowerment.” The book aims to educate and empower women to become successful investors. “I saw that money grow and I felt really empowered,” she said. “Knowing that I had been laid off twice, you can’t count on an employer to take care of you.” A Pittsburgh native, Itkin first became interested in investing by watching her “Pop-Pop.” With no more than an eighth-grade education, her grandfather built his wealth by investing his money. “He took nothing and built it into something through investing,” said Itkin, who noted he read The Wall Street Journal every day. Itkin went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in economics with a concentration in finance from University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. Today she works as a financial advisor at Coastwise Capital Group in La Jolla. Itkin’s passion is teaching women how to grow the money they earn. Women earn more than their husbands in 40 percent of American families with children, according to a study by the Pew Research Center. Yet fewer than 10 percent of women are “extremely confident” in their ability to invest, according to a Wells Fargo survey. “A lot of women hold off on investing because they’re scared. They don’t want to make a mistake. They don’t want to lose any money,” Itkin said. “Investing has risks. You will lose money sometimes. But over time, if you’re really diligent, you will grow your money.” Also known as “The Options Lady,” Itkin shares information and resources on her website, theoptionslady. com. She also wrote her book geared toward women. “All these books are written by men for men. Very few women are inclined to pick them up and read them because they’re not using language that women can relate to,” she said. “That’s where my book comes in. I wanted to fill that gap between broad personal finance and taking the next step in getting women smart about how to effectively invest their money in the stock market.” In addition to sharing Itkin’s story, the book provides tips on investing. She explains how women can begin investing even with little money. “Women of all ages come to me and say, ‘Laurie, no one has ever explained this to me in a way I could un-

derstand until you,’” Itkin said. “To me, that’s worth more than any money. It’s priceless. That means I’ve empowered a woman to have the tools and skills to grow her money.” Itkin will talk about her book from 6:30-7:30 p.m. April 15 at the Carmel Valley Library, located at 3919 Townsgate Drive. A portion of book sales at the event will benefit the Friends of the Camel Valley Library. “I just want other women to be able to do what I did,” Itkin said. “I really think they can.” For more information about Itkin and to purchase her book, visit www. theoptionslady.com.

It wasn’t until the next week or so after we met that I learned about his donation to the city of Del Mar. It’s very inspiring.”

Letters/Commentary/Opinion

A heart for the community is needed — voice your support for One Paseo I’m a 14-year Carmel Valley resident, one whose views are not represented by the author of the letter to the editor (March 22, “One Paseo Undecided . . .”). I am not undecided. My husband and I, friends and neighbors are very much decided. We want One Paseo, its main street and the amenities it will bring to our community. We want the much-needed traffic solutions One Paseo will provide. And we want an alternative to the only option in Carmel Valley, which is Del Mar Highlands. Granted, its recent improvements have enhanced the center, but it remains simply a strip mall. If, like my husband and myself, you too want more shopping and dining options, a safe and attractive gathering spot for families, more open space and community benefits — created by a company known for quality and sustainable building practices with offices right here on Valley Centre Drive, I urge you to get involved today. Write to the Carmel Valley Planning Board, the San Diego Planning Commission, Councilwoman Lightner and Mayor Faulconer and let them know it’s time for Carmel Valley to step out of the shadows of Del Mar. We need our own town center, our own character. I don’t think the opposition represents the desires of the majority of the community. I believe the majority of Carmel Valley’s residents are decided. We’ve decided we want One Paseo, we want a heart for our community. Please don’t sit back and think other like-minded residents will voice your wishes. Voice them yourself rather than possibly letting a very vocal minority decide this community’s fate. Cynthia Dial Carmel Valley

Del Mar Rotarians spring into service projects BY EMILY FIGUEIREDO, CLUB PUBLICITY CHAIR With the sun shining and spring in the air, the Del Mar Rotarians are busy with service projects to benefit local community members and international efforts. April 26 will mark the international “Rotarians At Work Day” with hundreds of thousands of Rotarians all doing service projects in their communities on the same day around the globe. But here in Del Mar, April 26 is just another day on a very busy calendar of good works. Around San Diego County, Del Mar Rotar-

ians are cooking, painting, planting and more. Recently, Rotarian Betsy Jones and her friends made and delivered a delicious dinner to 36 women at Rachel’s House, a shelter providing a safe, supportive, sober environment for women with few or no resources. Jones said, “We also provided food and juice for the women to have for their See PROJECTS, page 19

2026 Seaview Ave. development

New law means redevelopers will have an easier time getting a variance This letter is in response to the published article titled “Court decision clarifies code issue.” The information in that article did not completely address the hardship issue for granting a variance. The article states that the Design Review Board approved Jon Scurlock’s development application in June 2010; concluding that constructing the new house on the existing building pad instead of moving it westward would minimize adverse impacts to steep slopes, minimize land disturbance from grading the site, and minimize the bulk and mass of the retaining walls. However, the evidence contradicts the findings. As anyone who walks on Seaview Ave., or drives on Highway 101 by the public tennis courts and looks east, can clearly see the massive basement and pool on the completely graded slope (see photo above). The approved architectural plans clearly showed an expansion of nonconformity (which wasn’t included in the variance application), destruction of the slope and the old building pad and driveway, to build a large basement, decks, new driveway, and a swimming pool. The city chose to ignore the hard evidence in the plans. The large lot (14,552 square feet) is buildable and it is not situated in the protected bluff and overlay zone. The structure could have been easily moved another 10 feet further west and still have 38 feet left from the required 25-foot backyard setback. As a result, Del Mar’s governing bodies allowed a large bulky and massive structure close to a narrow street, resulting in possible privacy issues and other concerns for Jon Scurlock and for us who live across the street. Views were much less of an issue since we would have not regained much of the loss from our primary living area, even if the development followed the required 20-foot front yard setback (the house would have dropped only 2-3 feet down the slope). We are not litigious people — far from it. In fact, this is our first experience (and a very painful one) with the courts. We believe the city’s governing bodies had been misled by various lobbyists for this project, which resulted in a gross mistake. Unfortunately, the courts gave complete deference to the city (that says a lot about San Diego courts). Due to the new law, redevelopers will have a much easier time getting a variance and expanding their nonconforming homes, even without a true hardship. Steve and Lucy Eskeland Del Mar

Enrollment for the Options Program at Cathedral Catholic High School remains open. The Options Program is an inclusive education program at CCHS for students with intellectual disabilities and/or delays. The Options Program is looking to begin the 2014-15 school year with two to four freshmen looking to be included in some general education classes,

social events and enriching after-school experiences. This program is designed for students with intellectual disabilities who are functioning around a second- through sixth-grade academic level and who are looking for a faith-based, inclusive education. The Options students will not only be included in general education classes with modification but will also receive a highly

individualized academic plan for their four years at CCHS. A peer mentor program will be utilized to facilitate as much inclusion into the CCHS community as possible. For more information, contact Options Director Megan Burton at (858)5234000 or mburton@cchsdons.com.

This year, the festival has a fantastic line-up of world-renowned vocal and instrumental artists of both the Hindustani and the Carnatic traditions of Indian music from India and around the world. The IFAASD is also presenting numerous dance ballets during the festival that are going to be marvelous treats for both the eyes and ears. Throughout the festival, attendees will have the opportunity to taste a wide range of Indian vegetarian cuisine from the South to the North and everywhere in between. The festival is certainly a must attend event for all, as it promises to delight the eyes, the ears, and the stomach.

from tax dollars, and be spending time out running around in city politics. … The district attorney’s job is supposed to be about seeking and obtaining justice. We are responsible for the most serious criminal activity in this county.” If elected, Wyatt said she wants to shift resources away from trying to rehabilitate adult prison parolees to add additional investigators to the DA’s Elder Abuse unit and Juvenile Branch (where there is currently only investigator apiece). “Once somebody’s already an adult and they’re in and out of the prison system, it’s very difficult to rehabilitate them,” Wyatt said. “Gang conduct starts in junior high and high school. … You don’t want them turning into hardcore gang members. You don’t want them to end up on (a list) of people who are in prison for life.”

A selected group of high school students from Spain will come to Del Mar in July 2014 and will enjoy our beautiful city from the best possible vantage: living with a local host family. “This is what we do at Live California,” says the director, Alejandro Campillo. “We hand pick a group of students and bring them to Del Mar. We place them with volunteer families and take care of all the logistics.” The students stay busy and they are picked up and dropped off at home every day for the four weeks of the program. Lisa Campillo, the Head of Studies, and Alejandro personally handle all aspects of Live California. All families are interviewed in person which gives them a chance to discuss hosting details and talk about their lifestyle. “This is our fifth year” says Alejandro. “We work with very small groups. We approach it in a very personal way. Running this camp has given us the opportunity to meet dozens of fantastic, generous families in this area. We regard them as friends.” Hosting provides a great opportunity for local children to have an international experience in the safety of home. It is a

sheltered, yet firsthand look at the challenges and rewards of speaking a different language and traveling to a distant land. “It’s a stepping stone,” said Campillo, “to spark an interest in travel and languages”. “We have participated two years in a row, with different students. The first year we had a good experience with Monica, but it was Pilar, the second student, who fit in so well with our girls that we felt like she was part of the family,” said Mrs Landon from Del Mar Heights. “Now my girls are begging to visit Pilar.” “Families who would like to host should talk with other host families and hear different perspectives. Our former host families are our best ambassadors. ” said Alejandro. While families with teenage kids are the most natural host families this is by no means a requirement. The program is open to any families from Del Mar and nearby communities. Live California is currently recruiting host families for July 2014 .

One day, who knows, one of us could be walking in their shoes.” Local branches of the Boys & Girls Clubs are receiving fresh coats of paint and some simple carpentry work while the Solana Beach Post Office received a landscaping makeover from busy Del Mar Rotarians. The club is also supporting local youth in the

area this season. Eagle Scouts are presenting their big Eagle Scout Projects to the club and receiving support to accomplish their building, planning and community efforts. The club will celebrate them with a “Scout’s Day” at a Del Mar Rotary Club Meeting in June. Additionally, local middle school and high school students can engage in the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (known as “RYLA”) and Model United Nations with the support of the Rotarians. Looking internationally this spring, Del Mar continues to send aid across the globe for many

projects. Recently, $4,000 has been committed to support a grade school kitchen to be remodeled in La Paz, Mexico. The club is also actively supporting a Japanese healthcare team visiting the area for two weeks at the end of March and early April.

was under the influence of drugs and alcohol,” Wyatt recalled. “It was very controversial within the district attorney’s office as to whether criminal acts occurred, and whether there was enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt to charge this police officer with using deadly force.” At the time, Wyatt recalled, division chief of the Special Operations unit, Richard Monroy, vocally opposed the decision to file a criminal case against White. “The feeling was that the decision was made for political reasons, that the DA wanted to appear to the public that she’s tough on police officers even, tough on crimes,” Wyatt said. Within months of opposing White’s prosecu-

tion, Monroy was transferred to a low-profile job as liaison for the narcotics task force. Wyatt claims other division chiefs who’ve spoken up in similar meetings have faced retaliation and relocation by Dumanis and her deputy DA. “So the message becomes, just keep your mouth shut, go along with the program,” Wyatt said. “All the lawyers feel that they have to be very careful what they say all the time, and that impacts public safety, because you want deputy district attorneys not worrying about politics. You want them concentrating on prosecuting their cases and doing it in the right way.” Wyatt said she was also disappointed when Dumanis decided to run for mayor. “I thought highly of Bonnie … (but) I don’t think our district attorney should be drawing down

RUSH Field Hockey Club claims UC Berkeley 6v6 Championship

The RUSH field hockey team won the U16 championship and finished with no losses in the U19 tournament at the Cal 6v6 held in the Memorial Stadium on the UC Berkeley campus over the weekend of March 29-30. The team was coached by Carmel Valley resident and former Cal player Gretchen Jimenez under the direction of club director Brian Schledorn. The team went undefeated in five games in the U16 bracket, racking up 34 goals while giving up only 1 goal on the day. At the U19 level they were 4-0-1. The team consisted of sophomores from six different high schools: Farah Farjood and Gabi Jimenez from Torrey Pines High School, as well as Kyra Kent (Scripps Ranch), Nina Randolph (La Costa Canyon), Sara Janetzky (San Pasqual), Tatiana Arias (Fallbrook), and goalie Chelsea Bigelow (Westview). Next up for the team is the Stanford University 5v5 tournament in mid-April, followed by local tournaments including: Play for Pink tournament at Vista High School and the Mila Memorial tournament at Fallbrook High School.

Surf Academy BU12 team wins National Cup Championship Surf Academy BU12 proved to be the best in their age group by winning the National Cup Championship against MLS Galaxy Academy 1-0. The team was led by Carmel Valley resident Coach Steve Hill who has led the team to victory in other important tournaments, such as SoccerLoco Surf Cup, NHB, and SCDSL league. Surf Academy will now represent Southern California State in US Youth Soccer Far West Regional Championships where they will face against the top 16 teams in the region from 14 states in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This will be a new challenge for the players. The team also has a big legacy to uphold – out of 272 Far West Regional championships from 1997 through 2013, Cal South teams have brought home 56 percent. Surf Academy will look to continue the trend. “We are looking forward to playing against the best teams out there, the winners from each state and playing six games in seven days,” said Hill.

Carmel Valley Spurs: Solana Beach Cats 3on3 Bball Champions The Carmel Valley Spurs won the Solana Beach Cats 3on3 Basketball Tournament on March 29 in the 5th/6th grade division. They played six games, including pool play and the playoffs, and finished with a record of 5-1. The Spurs lost their only game, in pool play, to the Solana Beach Swishers. As it turns out, they would meet again later in the day, in the finals. In the championship game, the Spurs fell behind early, then took a brief lead, then fell behind again with under a minute remaining. The Spurs hit a basket with about 10 seconds remaining in regulation to tie the game and send it to overtime. The rules stated that the first team to score in overtime wins the game. The Spurs won the coin toss and got the ball first. After a few quick passes, they hit a jump shot about 15 seconds into overtime. The Carmel Valley Spurs beat the Solana Beach Swishers

SB singer releases debut album By Kristina Houck More than a month after originally planned for release, fans of Solana Beach’s Anna Danes can now purchase her debut album. “It’s been a year in the making, from the time we started recording to today,” said Danes on March 25, the day her album was released. A Feb. 11 release of “Longing” was originally planned. “I’m thrilled that the day is here.” “Longing” features a dozen songs, mostly jazz covers, including “Dream a Little Dream of Me,” “Killing Me Softly” and “Something.” The album also includes two original songs written by Producer Larry B. White and his wife, Margaret White. “The songs were selected by my heart,” Danes said. “If they spoke to me in some way, they ended up being on the album.” Danes discovered her passion for singing during her daughter’s voice lessons. When her then 7-year-old daughter refused to sing, she stepped in. Now 9 years old, Danes’ daughter opted for guitar lessons, while she recorded her first album. The process helped Danes through her divorce. “Music has been a tremendous help for me,” Danes said. “It has been very healthy and very cathartic. Not even knowing that it was happening, I was reaching for these particular songs because they struck a chord with me.” She recalled recording the album’s closing song, “I Wish You Love,” as a symbolic farewell to her now ex-husband. “Singing about your feelings is so liberating. You get to live it over and

over again and then you can leave it behind,” she said. “It’s a beautiful way to express what’s happening on the inside that we can’t often do otherwise.” Although “Longing” is Danes first album, music has always played a large part in her life. Born in Gdansk, Poland, Danes was 10 years old when her family escaped Communist rule and fled to Sweden. The family later settled in Canada after her father landed an engineer position in Ottawa. While adapting to a different culture and learning English and French, Danes also struggled with her parents’ divorce. She used music to escape and joined a Polish church choir in Ottawa. Until recently, that was the only music experience she had. Danes earned her bachelor’s degree in ancient history and archaeology from the University of Ottawa and studied law at the University of Windsor. She practiced family and estate law as an attorney in Toronto prior to relocating to California 14 years ago. See SINGER, page B24

Local couple’s Camp Erin featured in HBO Documentary By Kristina Houck At just 15 years old, Annalisa Albanese could not talk about the loss of her father with her friends. No one her age understood her pain until she went to Camp Erin, a bereavement camp for children. “There were other kids who understood the pain of losing a loved one,” said Annalisa, whose father died from kidney cancer on Nov. 10, 2012. He was 52. “Knowing that someone else feels the same pain makes you feel a lot better.” One in seven Americans lose a parent or sibling before the age of 20. Grieving children have an opportunity to share their story, express their feelings and memorialize their loved ones at Camp Erin. Founded by former Major League Baseball player, Jamie Moyer, and his wife, Karen Moyer, the camp is featured in the HBO documentary, “One Last Hug (and a few smooches): Three Days at Grief Camp.” The film debuts April 14. “‘One Last Hug’ illuminates a child’s unique perspective on death,” said Karen Moyer in a short speech before a private screening of the film on March 27 at UC San Diego’s Price Center Theater. “It’s a testament to the healing power of friendship.” The local couple launched the Moyer Foundation in 2000 to provide comfort, hope and healing to children affected by loss and family addiction. Camp Erin was created two years later in memory of Erin Metcalf, a Seattle Mariners fan who died from cancer at 17. The foundation now has 43 Camp Erin locations

“One Last Hug (and a few smooches): Three Days at Grief Camp” features Camp Erin Los Angeles, one of 43 bereavement camps for children established by Jamie and Karen Moyer. Photo/Kristina Houck across the United States and Canada, including one in every Major League Baseball city. More than 10,000 children have attended the camps since the first Camp Erin took place in 2002, in Erin’s home state of Washington. In addition to Camp Erin, the foundation launched Camp Mariposa for children affected by addiction in their families. Both camps offer traditional camp activities, as well as education and support that helps children understand and express their feelings, and learn to process what they are going through. “Every one of these kids fills my heart, and I’m thrilled that these camps exist for them,” said Moyer, a mother of eight. “Both camps are unique and super fun. These kids come together and they find positive ways to cope. It truly allows them to live on and live well.” In 2013, Camp Erin San Diego held its first session in partnership with San Diego’s Elizabeth Hospice. Annalisa was one of the 92 campers ages 6 to 17. Camp was especially difficult for Annalisa as it was held during her father’s birthday on June 8. “It was very emotional,” said Liz Sumner, director of the Center for Compassionate Care at San Diego’s Elizabeth Hospice. Sumner sent brownies to Annalisa’s cabin, where she and her fellow campers lit candles and sang “Happy Birthday.” “It was an opening for her to start to find some healing.” Annalisa, now a 17-year-old junior at Excelsior Academy in San Diego, spoke about her experience at camp on a panel after the private screening. “Everyone understood,” she said. “Even though it was really sad, I had everybody there for me.” Camp is held once a year, with the next Camp Erin San Diego session set for June 6-8 at Camp Marston in Julian. The camp is still recruiting campers and volunteers. Annalisa plans to return to Camp Erin San Diego in June. She wants to eventually be a counselor at the camp. “Don’t be afraid,” Sumner said. “It’s a chance for you

to be surrounded by people who really understand. You’re not alone.” Camp Mariposa San Diego, which is run in partnership with San Diego Youth Services, also held its first session in 2013. The camp is held five times each year in Pine Valley. The next sessions take place May 16-18, Aug. 2224, Oct. 17-19 and Dec. 5-7. It costs about $500 to send a child to camp. Camp sessions are free for campers, so the Moyer Foundation raises funds for programs and initiatives through special events, corporate partnerships and individual donations. The foundation also relies on volunteers. More than 80 volunteers supported Camp Erin San Diego last year. “It is our hope that this film will shed light on the need to raise awareness about childhood grief, and it will result in widespread advocacy and support all across this country,” Moyer said. “This documentary has no Hollywood. I would never, ever allow that. These are real stories from real kids who come to our camp.” Directed by Academy Award nominee Irene Taylor Brodsky, “One Last Hug” offers an intimate portrayal of the three-day camp. The documentary, which features Camp Erin Los Angeles, will debut at 8 p.m. April 14 on HBO. To watch the trailer, visit youtu.be/uTTpCmMCLLE.

Knorr Candle Shop to showcase Artisan Marketplace vendors at Spring Fling event April 12 By Diane Y. Welch Tucked away off the main road at 14906 Via de la Valle stands the Knorr Candle Shop. The Del Mar-based business, founded in 1928 by Ferdinand Knorr, is a unique retail store that stocks a myriad of colors, textures and sizes of candles and honeycomb wax sheets. It is also home to the factory where Knorr’s famous dripless 100 percent beeswax candles are artfully created, an enduring craft that has been passed down through three generations. A recent addition to the store is the Artisan Marketplace. Opened in the fall of 2012, it’s an opportunity for local crafts people, artists and artisans to lease space where they may display and sell their merchandise. It’s a symbiotic relationship that has added a new element to the vintage business and one that is helping it compete in the modern market, said Karin Johnston, one of Knorr’s longtime employees. The sales staff take care of the retail transactions and through the website the company helps promote the merchants. To build further awareness, on Saturday, April 12, from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m., the candle shop will showcase these vendors in a celebratory Spring Fling event. Free and open to the public, there will be light refreshments and some of the merchants will give demonstrations of their crafts, said Johnston. Jewelry artist Linda Melvin will demonstrate the delicate art of silversmithing; Dennis Wymbs, owner of Eros Galleries, will show how he creates works of art by painting with beeswax; and there will be tasty samplings of Sue Thomas’s jams and jellies, from her business Fruits of my Labor. Eleven local vendors will showcase their products at the event. Other items include hand-made bird boxes, floral arrangements with sculpture, hand-thrown pottery and a variety of candles. Local beekeeper Laurie Decker,

Knorr Candle Shop is located at 14906 Via de la Valle. Courtesy photos owner of California Bee Works, will have jars of her honey for sale alongside her sculptured beeswax creations. Struggling to compete through the difficult recent recession, the business, Knorr Beeswax Products Inc., and the physical property were sold last year. With a long-term lease, the Knorr family is able to stay in the business. Third generation Steve Knorr is now running general operations, with Susan Prickett — who has been with the company over 15 years — employed as store manager. Steve’s father, Henry, recently turned 93 years old. “Every year we make Henry’s favorite food for his

birthday,� said Prickett, “Homemade chicken enchiladas and, of course, a cake from the French Gourmet Bakery.� Henry still helps with the candle machines in the factory and brings in the mail each day, said Prickett. “Most mornings you can hear the sound of a staple gun at 8 a.m. clicking away up at his house, as he still builds all the bee boxes that we sell to bee keepers.� Knorr candles are a result of the industrious efforts of thousands of bees. According to the Knorr Beeswax website, 160,000 bees must travel 150,000 miles to collect the necessary nectar to produce 60 pounds of

honey that yields only one pound of beeswax. When the candles were first developed they were initially sold to local gift shops, but now the factory produces more than 1 million candles each year and is a global business, said Johnston, who has been with the family business since 1978 when Henry was in charge. The current success is largely due to the collective team effort of family, staff and local vendors. “With our combined skills and ideas it all works. I think the arrangement will take us into a more stable future,� Johnston said. Visit www.knorrbeeswax.com or call 858-755-2051.

Rosina Reynolds and Apollo Dukakis star in Lionel Goldstein’s “Mandate Memories” as two strangers who have more in common than they realize. Photo/Aaron Rumley and or directed more than 30 productions in San Diego. She is also the founding artistic Director of the Chequamegon Children’s Theatre in Northern Wisconsin. “Jane is a polite and genteel English lady who gardens, and when this elderly Jewish man comes to stay for a while in a very gregarious house, it’s a clash of two temperaments and cultures,” Dukakis said. “I just love Rosina, who is outspoken and feisty and she portrays Jane exceptionally well, especially when Jane is backed against the wall.” The conflicts are provocative, but there is also some

humor. In addition to an entertaining evening, Dukakis believes those leaving the theater will reflect on, “The human drama between two people who are total opposites but who find a common understanding and acceptance of each other.” If you go: “Mandate Memories” is on stage at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach, April 10-May 4.

By Diana Saenger History and human drama share the intentions of playwright Lionel Goldstein’s “Mandate Memories,” making its World Premiere at the North Coast Repertory Theatre (NCRT) in Solana Beach. David Ellenstein, artistic director of NCRT, directed what’s called a two-hander – just two actors play the show. Apollo Dukakis takes on the role of Gustav Frolich, an 80-year-old Jewish Holocaust survivor, who in his youth was a Jewish Freedom Fighter. He has come to England from Israel to call on Jane Stirling. She’s played by Rosina Reynolds. Gustav informs Jane he has something to share with her. She is not too receptive of him since the father she never knew was killed by Jewish terrorists during the days of the British Mandate for Palestine. Brother Apollo and his sister, actor Olympia Dukakis, share a long history in theater. She started a little before Apollo. They lived in Massachusetts, and when she went to New York, he followed a few years later. “This was before regional theaters had come about; there was just Broadway,” Apollo Dukakis said. “Eventually, in the 1960s that changed and we started a theater in New Jersey that lasted 19 years. I would direct her, or she would direct me, or we would act together.” In addition to performing in the Shakespeare and Company in Lenox Mass. as Gonzalo in “The Tempest” and the Chaplain in “Mother Courage,” both opposite his sister, Dukakis is a co-founder and was Associate Artistic Director, actor, and teacher with the Tony-nominated Whole Theater of New Jersey for 15 years. He’s appeared in many productions, TV shows and film, and earned L.A. Drama Critics and Ovation award nominations. Although Dukakis was certainly interested when he received a call from Ellenstein about the role of Gustav, he was also not sure what to expect. “As I started to read the script, I immediately became interested in the events of the play, its history and background,” he said. “Learning about the characters and what they had gone through, and what they wanted from each other, was very moving. I knew I wanted to do it even though it has more dialogue than any play I’d ever done.” Dukakis said he was very impressed with his costar, Reynolds, who has performed

Three new businesses open at Flower Hill Promenade’s Row Collective By Karen Billing An artisan jewelry maker who plays on the ordinary beauty of the penny; a former Canyon Crest Academy art teacher who makes textile masterpieces; a young father who found a way to repurpose his son’s baby food jars into a full-time gig; a handful of shop owners and artisans who treasure the local and unique, both the traditional and the eclectic: This is the Row Collective at Flower Hill Promenade. As part of its renovation over the last year, Flower Hill has carved out a part of the bottom floor of the center to serve as the Row. The management’s mission has been to find vendors with a certain type of vibe for this “artisan and curated” section of the mall. “It’s nice to have like-minded people in this space,” said Julie Rais, the former San Dieguito Union High School District art teacher turned-owner of Rais Case. The Row is made up of the stores Lone Flag, Van De Vort, Rais Case and Mr. B’s Luminaries. Three new stores have joined them and opened this month: Studio Penny Lane, Pink Soul and A Ship in the Woods’ WSOHOIDPS. The Row stores are connected by an open patio filled with wooden tables and seating areas with string lights dangling from the level above, book-ended by Sea and Smoke’s outdoor patio and a few empty storefronts for future Row denizens.

Pink Soul opened its doors officially over the weekend, although owner Heidi Lund was making sales even while she set up shop, a “perfect” little location with wood floors and an eye-catching light fixture as a centerpiece, a flea market find that was given new life by a coat of hot pink paint. “I need pink,” Lund said. Lund specializes in yoga gear and “fancy loungewear” as well as unique accessories at a variety of price points. She likes to stock her store with the funky and the local, you can find Mia Brazzilia workout wear designed by local martial arts instructor Kaneta Harmon and local designer Ashley Ann Bennett’s leather painted earrings and cuff bracelets. The Flower Hill store is Lund’s second location with the first Pink Soul on Highway 101 in Encinitas. “I had looked at the mall before but I thought it was old and tired,” Lund said of the pre-facelift Flower Hill. “I saw the changes that were taking place and I really like what’s going on with the center. I think it’s going to be a fun, happening type of place.” Studio Penny Lane had its soft opening on March 25, with a grand opening planned sometime in May. Owner Laurie Libman-Wilson said her focus lately with her three-year-old business has been more on wholesale, she jumped on the opportu-

She was impressed by all of the renovations, the addition of Whole Foods as an anchor and the popular draw of the Cucina Enoteca restaurant and what they are trying to do with the Row section she will be in. “It’s going to be a cool little enclave of stores there, I’m really excited for it,” said Libman-Wilson. Libman-Wilson used to have a retail space on Cedros Avenue in Solana Beach, but she hopes her Flower Hill spot will be more of a workshop. “I won’t run any of my wholesale business out of there, I will probably do things like letting people be in-

By Diana Saenger The many mega fans who tune into the hit British TV series “Downton Abbey” Sunday nights prove that poignant dramas about eventful lives are quite entertaining. Such is J.B. Priestley’s period classic “Time and the Conways,” full of sumptuous scenery and classic costume on stage at the Old Globe Theatre through May 4. Globe’s Artistic Director Barry Edelstein is a huge fan of the play and invited Rebecca Taichman to direct this revival, remarking that she is a gifted master of craft “with a real wit and a deep soul.“ Of the script, Taichman said, “I have long been a fan of Priestley’s work and this is a moving story with several elements.” It begins in 1919. The Conway family, at home in their English countryside, consists of a war-widowed mother and six children. The family plays charades and dreams of a bright future, and then the story switches to 1938 by which time Mrs. Conway’s income is spent and her children must face a harsh reality. “Priestley’s idea here was for us to see how we understand time,” Taichman said. “It’s about time fluidity and looking at family through different periods of their lives. We made some minor edits to the original

script, but nothing significant, and the audience will enjoy some different dialects.” The production has a cast of 10 actors with very impressive resumes. “They are all wonderful and whipped into shape quickly,” Taichman said. “I find them playful, open hearted, and they have taught me some things, which is great.” The Conway children include a feckless drunk, would-be novelist, tabloid journalist, utopian reformer and a harassed teacher. Priestley’s intention through their story is to take a look at the driving forces of human existence — love, ambition, and most of all, time — and through them show the seeds of the family’s destruction, but also show that time is an abstract concept containing past, present and future. “I think this play will touch people in different ways,” Taichman said. “It’s deeply moving for people to think how time operates in our lives and that in a spiritual way, grief, and things like our jobs, can come together to engage us. We have a nature core of feelings that are foundational. Life can be mind-boggling, but also full of hope … and if we lose hope, there is still joy to be found, and that’s where family helps us coexist. That’s a lot of what Priestley is trying to convey in this story.”

SUMMER CAMPS 2014

Games, song and dance bring together teenagers from TVIA and SAYC The SD1 Chapter of Teen Volunteers In Action held its second event of the year with the Sudanese American Youth Center on March 23. The day began with getting more closely connected through Minuteto-Win-It type games, then progressed to an impromptu piano recital and singalong. The mood became so jovial that a few of the Sudanese youth girls decided to teach the North County teen boys a traditional African dance, Salam Mu Salam Mu. Bryce, a ninth-grader from Torrey Pines, said his favorite part was the Face the Cookie game with Oreos. “I was pretty full by the end of it!” he said. Taylor, from Canyon Crest Academy, had a good time getting better acquainted with his new friends: “They’re all so nice and friendly. It was a fun way to spend the afternoon.” The two groups are

TVIA parent liaison Carolyn Davis said that they are having a great year learning about the Sudanese culture and that each event brings these groups closer together. “You can sense the kids getting more comfortable with each other as the day goes on,” Davis said. “I had one of the Sudanese girls ask me for the exact date of our next event so she could put it in her calendar!” For more information on TVIA, visit www.tvia.org.

almost life-size, in its own metal container. “I wanted to show that beauty’s on the inside, like a butterfly in a cocoon,” he said. “And this piece is two-thirds of the Wizard of Oz!” Patricia Frischer talked about her “Butterbear”: “I was at Berkeley in the 1960s when we put flowers in the soldiers’ rifles. This guy’s rifle is tipped with a butterfly made of Popsicle sticks, and the whole thing is covered with metal. The figure is a German art deco war piece, and on top there’s a child’s teddy bear being saved by an inner tube. The idea is: You need to be a bear to survive, and you need metal covering for protection.” Sandra Berlin-Kroll said her ceramic “Chrysalis” was actually three chrysalises in one. “One is in the shape of a heart, whose colors go from dark to light. The red is the murdered children, with their half-broken wings, and the third is a barbed wire form with a butterfly-shaped hole in it.” Carol Korfin’s glass-and-metal butterfly tree was one of the first pieces in the show to be sold. “I just started glass art six years ago, after I retired from insurance sales,” she said. “I dabbled in art before then, but after one class in fused glass, I said: ‘That’s it! I’ve found my passion!’ ” In her piece, she explained, “One butterfly represents the Jews of Israel, the other is the Jews of the Diaspora, and there are 18 Jewish stars — 18 is ‘Chai,’ the symbolic number for life — representing the souls of all the Jewish children who died in the Holocaust.” Vivian Ressler, who with her husband, Jeffrey, cosponsored the exhibit, showed a watercolor of two girls who died at Auschwitz. “They were my first cousins,” she said. “We have a photo of them. My family left Hungary for Cuba in 1936; my father’s relatives who stayed behind were all killed. I left the painting of these girls unfinished because they never got to finish their lives.” “Transformations: Butterflies & Beyond” is on view 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday-Friday (closed Saturdays) through May 28 at Gotthelf Art Gallery, Jewish Community Center, 4126 Executive Drive, La Jolla, 92037. Free. (858) 457-3030.

Skyline Elementary School’s Talent Show was held March 28 and featured more than 100 Skyline students participating in a variety of acts — ranging from singing, dancing, magic, skits, and live bands. Students from all grade levels (kindergarten to sixth grade) were represented in the show, which sold out at a capacity of 600 attendees in just seven school days. Proceeds for the show will benefit Skyline School ASB and The Kevin Pearce Foundation, specializing in education and support of athletes suffering from traumatic brain injury.

By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt The Butterfly Project was created in 2006 to memorialize the 1.5 million children killed in the Holocaust. This month, in collaboration with the Project, the Jewish Community Center’s Gotthelf Art Gallery in La Jolla invited 24 San Diego artists to explore the theme of transformation and the idea of the butterfly as a metaphor for the human spirit. More than 100 viewers, including most of the artists, filled the gallery at the March 12 opening of “Transformations: Butterflies & Beyond.” Many of the pieces were striking interpretations of the theme, with interesting stories behind them. Shana Lew’s driedflower sculpture “It All Depends on How You Look at It” began with a book of drawings and poems by Jewish children in the Czech concentration camp, Terezin. One of the poems, “I Never Saw Another Butterfly,” was the inspiration for The Butterfly Project. “I took a teeny drawing from the book and used it as the basis of my piece,” Lew said. Stacy Mann wrote a poem to accompany her watercolor “Flight,” which was pinned to the wall with the kind of pins used for mounting butterflies. “Breathe in,” the poem began. “Transformational in body and blood/Fire and ash rising on the wind...” “I started with lungs, which transformed into wings and became a Holocaust piece,” Mann said, pointing out the crouching figures in the lower corner of her painting and the smoke rising at the top. In “Chrysalis II,” Cheryl Tall used different types of materials — fired clay, tree branches, and bits of an antique handkerchief — to show the fragility of life and the endurance of the spirit.

Turn over a new leaf – Hold on to your green tops The Kitchen Shrink

BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN My mother, a product of the Depression, taught me life lessons on scrimping and saving, especially in the kitchen. Her motto: “Waste not, want not.” So next time you bring home fruits and vegetables from the market with bushy green tops salvage these tender, succulent leaves. Toss in soups, stews and salads instead of in your garbage or compost bin. Here’s a line-up of some of the healthiest and versatile top tops.

Strawberry Fields For-

ever The delicate leaves, stems and flowers of the sweet and seedy strawberry are not only edible, but nutritious too. Packed with Vitamin A for ocular health and cellular regeneration, immune boosting Vitamin C, healthy blood clotting K’s, along with calcium, potassium and iron, these greens have also been touted for easing digestive discomforts by balancing acids and bases in the intestinal tract. There’s more. Strawberry greens have been found to relieve creaky, achy arthritic joints thanks to the diuretic effect of the caffeic acid that acts as an anti-inflammatory. Coarsely chop strawberry leaves to dial up salsas and green salads, smoothies, sweet and savory quinoa taboulehs, or brew into a soothing tea with honey and almond milk. Dangle a Carrot Yes, green carrot tops are safe to eat despite the long-standing rumor of toxicity, perhaps because of

their uncanny resemblance to Poisonous Hemlock. Understandable since the toxic plant is a distant relative to Queen Anne’s Lace aka wild carrots, which in turn belongs to the same species as domesticated carrots (daucus carota). Tisk, tisk, neither the wild carrot nor its cultivated cousin is toxic. True, though, that carrot greens contain alkaloids called pyrrolidine and daucine that impart them with a bitter taste, and when eaten in large quantities can cause adverse reactions to those also sensitive to alkaloid-rich nightshades that tend to exacerbate arthritic joints. Standing advice — moderation. Loaded with potassium for balancing cellular functions, breath freshening chlorophyll along with a slew of other phytonutrients, try a bunch finely chopped into coleslaw or an Asian salad, roasted with root veggies, simmered in chicken soup or stewed with lamb shanks.

Stalk Options Celery stalks and the perky delicate greens are more than just a stirring stick for Bloody Marys. Those tender celadon leaves have a mother lode of antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties, along with five times the calcium and magnesium as the stalks for strengthening bones and amping up nerve and muscle health. These low-cal, high-fiber tops also provide a goodly supply of iodine for proper thyroid function, and Vitamin E to act as cellular warriors. Don’t Beet Around the Bush Juice the leaves or whip up some rich ruby borscht with chopped, chewy beet greens. Sauté the tasty tops with garlic and olive oil for a pizza or flatbread topping, or fold into an omelet with caramelized onions and goat cheese. Blend in risottos, pastas, Mediterranean salads, ginger soy stir fries with wild caught shrimp, or stuff the leaves with ground chicken or turkey, rice and raisins.

David M. Cabot, president and CEO, is pleased to announce that Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties was recently presented with the Pinnacle award, for ranking #1 for its sales volume in North America last year. The achievement once again places the brokerage at the top of a vast residential network of offices spanning the U.S., Mexico and Canada. When asked to comment about the perennial success of the brokerage, Cabot explained that, “We have consistently reinvested our earnings into refining the level of service we provide for our clients. This begins with ensuring our agents have access to numerous options for training and development, advanced technology, and a wide variety of marketing opportunities.” Cabot also noted that the company’s brand reputation has always been a major factor. He commented that, “In a year that saw historic changes, when we became the first affiliate to adopt a powerful new brand — whose namesake is the world-renowned Berkshire Hathaway Inc., we are especially proud of this achievement and optimistic about the future.” With a mission to provide a superior standard of service to clients and the community, the brokerage established The Charitable Foundation as well as a network of strategically placed offices throughout Southern California and the Central Coast. “Having a team of experts spread across 62 offices allows us to provide our clients with rapid

assistance and a wealth of insights pertaining to their individual neighborhoods,” added Cabot. Backed by the agents and staff at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties, The Charitable Foundation supports local organizations that promote health, education, community, and the environment. Since its inception the charity has provided over 1,000 grants, in excess of $4 million, to make a beneficial and constructive impact on the community. Visit www.bhhscalifornia.com. This year the Row’s courtyard has been activated in ways it never has before. Rais Case has held a few make-and-take events in collaboration with fellow Row shops. Retail shops around the patio kept their doors open into the evening with music, beverages and mingling, while for a small fee attendees could make key chains or wall hangings with Rais’ scraps of leather, feathers and handmade beads. Rais hopes to host another amateur artisan event during spring break for high schoolers, April 8-10. Teens will be welcome to come by and make a tassel, a candle and learn how to sew. Puusemp also said she hopes to coordinate as much as possible with everyone in the complex to make it a fun and interesting destination. “Jeffrey has this vision,” Rais said of the center’s owner Jeffrey Essakow. “Time will tell how far it can go because there’s a lot of potential.” For a longer story, visit www.delmartimes.net (Life category).

for,” said Libman-Wilson. As it says on the jar: “A life lived in gratitude is a quiet joy.” A Ship in the Woods opened recently, moving from a residential home in the hills of Del Mar. Its name at Flower Hill is WSOHOIDPS, a word puzzle where the words A Ship in the Woods all appear. The founders, Kiersten Puusemp, RJ Brooks and Dan Fauchier, are all artists and creators. Puusemp works in installation, mixed media and performance; Brooks has a background in film studies and photography; and Fauchier is a professional construction facilitator with a lifelong appreciation of the arts. The three partners founded the nonprofit foundation in 2010 in the Del Mar house to create an eclectic atmosphere for art exhibitions, musical performances, gatherings and other cultural events. “Originally the goal was simply to find interesting people doing interesting things and connect them using the house as a place to make that happen,” said

Puusemp. They started with a series of group art shows and moved on to include music events, film screenings, lectures, comedy and a residency program. Their last event at an external venue, La Paloma Theatre, featured the films and a performance by actor and filmmaker Crispin Glover, the first time he’s performed in California in nearly a decade. Their lease at the house will end in August and they plan to remain there until then. “The Flower Hill location WSOHOIDPS is an experiment for us. Doing what we do in the house is somewhat unusual thing. Informed, thoughtful and interesting cultural programming is not necessarily what you would expect to find in a suburban house in Del Mar. It’s a bit out of place, like a ship in the woods,” said Puusemp. “Flower Hill is similar in that a high-end mini-mall is not exactly the place you’d expect to find what we’re doing either.” At WSOHOIDPS they plan to exhibit and sell artwork in all mediums and are working on hosting film and music events in the courtyard.
