Del Mar City Council establishes pension reserve fund

■ Father & son coauthor popular book. See page 10

BY KRISTINA HOUCK Facing a shortfall of more than $9 million in its pension fund, the Del Mar City Council on Sept. 3 unanimously established a pension reserve fund as a new pillar in the city budget process. “I think this is very needed,” Mayor Terry Sinnott said. “It should be something used every year as a tool. It allows us to take a little bit more control over how we’re meeting this obligation. We want to meet this obligation.” Del Mar’s firefighters, lifeguards and miscellaneous employees, meaning all other city employees, participate in the California Public Employees’ Retirement System. Del Mar contributes varying amounts each year, which represent about 27 percent of the city’s payroll. According to the latest CalPERS reports released in June 2011, Del Mar has pension liabilities totaling $31.7 million with pension assets having a market value of $22.4 million, which means benefit pools are underfunded See FUND, Page 6

BY KAREN BILLING Gone are the days of “As,” “Bs” and “Cs” on Del Mar Union School District school report cards. The district will unveil new standardsbased report cards at the end of the first trimester of the school year and parents will learn how their child is progressing according to a scale of “E,” “S,” “D” and “B.” “E” means a student’s performance exceeds grade level expectations; “S” means a student’s performance is secure and meets grade level expectations; “D” means the student is developing steadily toward expectations; and “B” means the student is beginning to progress. The report cards were changed in light of the new Common Core State Standards that will go into effect in the 2014-15 school year.

Work began on the new report cards in 2011 with input along the way from district teachers. “We’re really excited about this process and the end result,” said Shelley Peterson, assistant superintendent of instructional services. Understanding that the report cards will mark a major shift for parents, the district will hold three parent information nights on report cards: Sept. 12 at Ashley Falls School; Oct. 10 at Sage Canyon; and Oct. 22 at Ashley Falls. All meetings begin at 6 p.m. There will also be an information video on the report cards posted on school websites the week of Sept. 16. “We’re really trying to get in See CARDS, Page 6

Del Mar and Solana Beach school districts join forces to help prevent more crimes BY KAREN BILLING After a series of burglaries at their school campuses, the Del Mar Union School District (DMUSD) and Solana Beach School District (SBSD) are teaming up in an attempt to prevent further crimes. The districts will share the cost of working with Networld Solutions, a company that specializes in video surveillance work. Since July, DMUSD has been hit by burglars seven times, resulting in the thefts of $30,049 worth of computers and $9,672 in damag-

es to campus buildings. The Solana Beach School District has been hit three times in the same span, all of the incidents occurring at Solana Santa Fe School in Rancho Santa Fe and in all three incidents a total of eight computers were taken but all were recovered. The districts will split a cost not-to-exceed $7,000 with Networld, which will develop a high level needs analysis and provide a range of solutions and costs. See CRIMES, Page 6

Solana Beach City Council adopts policy for Fletcher Cove Community Center use

■ Local youth named SD ALS Association’s ‘Volunteer of the Year’. See page B10

BY KRISTINA HOUCK After more than two years of heated debate between Solana Beach residents who want to rent Fletcher Cove Community Center for private events and community members who fear adverse impacts from parties, the City Council on Aug. 28 adopted a use policy for the facility. The unanimous decision came one day after a community group filed a petition with the city clerk to allow Solana Beach voters to decide the center’s use policy, which will

likely prompt a special election that could cost the city more than $200,000. Introduced during a special meeting Aug. 7, the policy permits use of the center for $50 per hour with a two-hour minimum for a maximum of 50 people, not including service providers. The facility will be available for residents or resident-sponsored one-time events once per weekend and twice a month on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays.

A security guard is required at all events at the center, which overlooks the ocean at 133 Pacific Ave. Live acoustic music is allowed inside the facility, but amplified music, microphones, DJs, drums and horns are prohibited. Beer and wine can be served, but guests are limited to two drinks, which must be served by city-trained servers. The City Council can alter the policy if there are issues during the trial period, which ends Dec. 28, 2014.

“When it looked like the council could not agree on an ordinance, I was in favor of the voter initiative. But you all worked hard to come up with a compromise as a council, and now we have an ordinance and the ability to move forward,” said Cindi Clemons, a member of the Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society, which meets at the Fletcher Cove Community Center. “The trial period let’s us take a look at what works and what doesn’t, or what isn’t necSee CENTER, Page 6

SANDAG projects growth in Del Mar BY KRISTINA HOUCK About a million more people will live in San Diego in 2050, according to SANDAG’s 2050 Regional Growth Forecast. In a presentation before the Del Mar City Council on Sept. 3, Clint Daniels, manager of regional models for SANDAG, shared the agency’s projections, which he said serves as the foundation for the upcoming SANDAG Regional Plan and other planning documents across the region. There are currently 3.1 million people living in San Diego County, according to the 2010 U.S. Census. SANDAG projects 973,000 more people, 489,000 more jobs and 333,000 more housing units in the region in 2050, Daniels said. By far San Diego — followed by unincorporated areas, Chula Vista and Oceanside — will see the most housing and job growth in the region. Del Mar will take on the least growth. Del Mar, which has about 4,100 residents, is expected to have almost 4,800 in 2050. The region’s projected growth is attributed to an aging and diversifying population, Daniels said. SANDAG’s forecast calls for San Diego’s Hispanic population to be larger than its white population, with 46 percent of the population Hispanic, 30 percent white, 16 percent Asian, 4 percent African-American and 4 percent of other racial backgrounds in 2050. Like the rest of the region, Del Mar’s Hispanic population is expected to grow. Currently, 89 percent of the city’s population is white. SANDAG predicts 75 percent of the population to be white in 2050. The city’s Hispanic population is expected to increase from 4 percent in 2012 to 10 percent in 2050.

Probationer involved in theft of iPads from Del Mar school sentenced to four years in prison BY KELLY WHEELER, CITY NEWS SERVICE A Riverside County man on probation for burglary when he and two others broke into Del Mar Heights Elementary School at night, stealing iPads and other electronic devices, was sentenced Aug. 30 to four years in state prison. Thomas Earl Burleson, 21, was convicted last month of burglary, receiving stolen property and possession of burglary tools. Despite saying Burleson is a gang member, prosecutors dismissed an allegation before trial that the school break-in was committed for the benefit of a street gang. Superior Court Judge Louis Hanoian denied a defense request to ``strike’’ Burleson’s 2012 burglary conviction, noting his criminal history — which includes robbery and auto theft — dates back to 2006. ``You steal to support yourself,’’ the judge told the defendant. Hanoian refused to impose an aggravated sentence of six years requested by prosecutors, calling Burleson’s latest See THEFT, page 19

Del Mar Union School District begins process of developing a facilities master plan BY KAREN BILLING The Del Mar Union School District is beginning the process of developing its facilities master plan, looking to the community for input as the district forms its “long-term roadmap” on how the district will deliver education in the future from a facilities standpoint. At its Aug. 28 meeting, the board heard an update on the process from LPA Architects, the firm selected to guide the district as it develops its plan. Don Pender, a principle at LPA, said that the firm acts just as the “organizers” or facilitators — the heart of the plan will really come out of the district’s outreach group meetings and town hall meeting. The outreach group comprised of 30 to

40 key stakeholders will have three meetings throughout the fall at Del Mar Hills Academy. The first meeting will be held Wednesday, Sept. 18, from 3-5 p.m. on the topic of the educational program, preschool and childcare, integration of technology, and professional development. The second and third meetings are scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 1, and Tuesday, Dec. 17, both from 3-5 p.m. Pender said the outreach meetings are where all the master plan options are generated for the executive committee. A town hall meeting open to all community members will be held on Nov. 6. At that meeting the master plan options will all be presented, with budget estimates so as to

Peters to tackle budget, Syria at end of summer recess Note: Information below was current as of presstime for this newspaper. BY PAT SHERMAN During the home stretch of Congressional representatives’ August recess, La Jolla resident and Congressmember Scott Peters (D-52nd) spoke with this newspaper group about his focus upon returning to Washington this week. At the top of his to-do list will be a briefing on the situation in Syria (Last Friday, a “war-weary” President Obama said that while the U.S. should hold Syria accountable for a chemical weapons attack that reportedly killed more than 1,400 of its own citizens, he leaning toward a limited response). “People are horrified by the notion that a government might be gassing its own children to death — and that’s something that deserves serious attention,” Peters said, adding that, if the United States gets involved, it should “not act unilaterally.” “I don’t think it would be appropriate to go it alone,” Peters said. “To the extent that we have any action we have to be absolute-

Scott Peters ly certain that it is the government that’s using chemical weapons. We also want to be certain what the mission is and how we exit. I suspect that people, like me, while they’re concerned about the situation, have a lot of questions about what the objective would be and what success would like if we were to take any kind of action. … I don’t think anyone’s proposing an extended boots-on-the ground kind of campaign.” Peters and his colleagues will also grapple with the budget and sequestration, hoping to broker a compromise between the House and Senate. “So far the House leadership has refused to appoint negotiators,” Peters said. “I don’t expect to be

appointed to be the negotiator as a freshman, but I think one of us could put together a deal that would make sense and end the sequester.” Congress will also revisit the Senate immigration reform bill. “It’s not perfect,” Peters said, “but it would do a lot for San Diego and for California. I’d love to see (us have) a chance to talk about that. … I think the Senate gave us something that we can work with.” Then there’s the student loan rate compromise Congress struck this year (a previous deal that would have fixed the student loan rate at 6.8 percent after a temporary reprieve rate of 3.4 percent had expired). “I, along with a lot of people, thought that that was awful high,” said Peters, who himself made his way through college on student loans. “The (recent) compromise was that loans will be able to increase with market rates, but within certain constraints, so families would be able to plan for their kids’ education without facing drastic changes in

Helen Woodward Animal Center offers $5,000 reward for arrest of individual who removed puppy’s ears Animal welfare workers worldwide are no strangers to the tragic abuse suffered by innocent animals at the hands of cruel individuals, but the latest fuzzy resident at Helen Woodward Animal Center has even the most stoic staffers shaking their heads in disbelief. A darling spaniel blend puppy named Pongo is recovering from a shocking recent past of abandonment, malnourishment and extraordinary mutilation. Thrown into a dumpster with his three canine siblings, Pongo was left for dead with his ears cut off in brutal fashion. The loving, little puppy, who meekly exposes his belly to anyone willing to provide some kindness, has so touched the members of Helen Woodward Animal Center’s staff and board that a $5,000 reward is being offered to anyone who can provide information leading to the arrest of the person who committed the atrocity. Lizbeth Luna, a Helen Woodward Animal Center transfer partner who works primarily with Animal Advocates of the United States, commented “I have worked in animal rescue for over seven years and I don’t remember ever seeing a case like this one.” In May of this year, the four puppies were discovered in Chula Vista, Calif., when a friend of Luna’s heard cries coming from a nearby dumpster. Within the dumpster was a closed box holding the mutilated puppies, no more than 5 weeks old. Over the last three months, all four puppies have been provided veterinary and foster care, but only Pongo has passed medical approval to begin his search for a forever home. It is hoped that the remaining puppies will continue their healing and become available for adoption in the weeks ahead. Luna explained that the puppies may have been the product of inexperienced breeders who thought the ear removal – called “cropping” – would make the puppies cuter and, thus, more valuable. “Cropping” is a practice some professional breeders still employ to certain canine breeds such as boxers and terrier-types but it is rarely, if ever, seen on spaniels. Luna suspects that once the procedure was crudely done, the offending individuals realized their mistake and simply threw the puppies away.

Pongo’s ears were cut off.

Pongo “We are looking for a compassionate adopter with a loving heart who can demonstrate how kind human beings can be,” stated Helen Woodward Animal Center President and CEO Mike Arms. “There is a better

David Jaffe returns to San Dieguito District as Torrey Pines High School principal BY KRISTINA HOUCK As a child, David Jaffe was a fan of Torrey Pines High School’s football team. Now, he’s head of the Carmel Valley school. “Torrey Pines has always been a flagship school in San Diego, the state and the nation, so the opportunity to actually lead this school is just outstanding,” said Jaffe, the new principal at Torrey Pines High School. Although Jaffe began his first year as principal on Aug. 27, he’s not new to the San Dieguito Union High School District. The San Diego native has been in education for 20 years, 18 of which have been with the district. Jaffe started in the district in 1993 as a history teacher, then an assistant principal at Diegueno Middle School. After a brief stint as assistant principal of La Costa Canyon High School, Jaffe opened Canyon Crest Academy as the founding principal in 2004 and later left to serve as executive director of curriculum and assessment at the district office in 2007. He led Chabad Hebrew Academy, a private Jewish day school in Scripps Ranch, for the last two years. “I’m a public school person; that’s what it comes down to,” said Jaffe, who replaced former principal Brett Killeen after he left the district to become assistant superintendent of human relations at the Vista Unified School District. Jaffe is the ninth principal of Torrey Pines High School since the campus opened in 1974. “I was born and raised in public schools myself. I had amazing opportunities in the San Dieguito Union High School District, and I’m thrilled to be back here in this principalship,” Jaffe said. Although he heads a campus with nearly 2,800 students and more than 150 teachers, Jaffe describes his leadership style as focusing on building engaging connections with his students and his staff. “The vision for any large high school, at least the high school I run, is to be connected with our students and each other,” Jaffe said. “Doctors and scientists, they move forward in their professions and advance their technologies based on collaboration. They don’t do it in isolation, in a bubble. I think we need to do the same. “It’s very easy to go and just isolate yourself, but the only way to move forward as an organization is to do it collectively, as a team.” A Patrick Henry High School alum, Jaffe earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology at UCLA and considered going into law. After working a couple of summers in a law office, as a campus supervisor at his former middle school and as a volunteer at a transitional housing program for former foster and probation youth, Jaffe decided he wanted to work with children. He transitioned to administration to make an even greater impact. “I enjoyed the thought of being able to positively impact a whole school,” he said. “I found out I had the skills to be able to be a leader.” Along with all public schools in California, Torrey Pines High School will make the transition to the Common Core State Standards in the 2014-15 school year, which Jaffe will oversee. “The nice thing about being executive director of curriculum and assessment at the district for four years is I

David Jaffe know from a district level what we worked on and what the school sites are implementing,” said Jaffe, who has been married for 16 years and has two daughters in first and fourth grades. “I was part of the original conversations.” While making the transition to the Common Core State Standards is one of his main goals, Jaffe also wants to continue the culture of excellence that is embedded in the school, which U.S. News and World Report ranked 25th in the state and one of the top in the nation. He also wants to continue to ensure the school meets the individual needs of all students and prepares them for life after graduation. “Having the honor of being principal of a school that’s been part of this community for 40 years, I don’t take lightly,” Jaffe said. “My job and my administration team’s job is to make this environment one that kids want to come to, parents want to send their kids to and teachers want to teach at. The school already has that environment, so I don’t have to make massive changes. It’s really the staff coming together and moving forward and continuing to make curriculum relevant for the kids.”

Kaiser Permanente new title sponsor of Carmel Valley 5K Race The Carmel Valley 5K Race Committee announced recently that Kaiser Permanente is the new title sponsor of its annual 5K road race, which will be conducted on the Saturday Jan. 25, 2014 at 8 a.m. The Kaiser Permanente Carmel Valley 5K & Fun Run raises money to support the Del Mar Schools Education Foundation (“DMSEF”). This non-profit organization provides funding for Art, Music, Technology, Science and P.E. at all eight Del Mar Unified Schools. “What a great way to start off the new year by getting out and getting active.” said James Malone, chief administrative officer for Kaiser Permanente San Diego. “At Kaiser Permanente, we are thrilled to support programs that create healthy communities and foster healthy lifestyles.” Registration is now open for the 5K at http://www.carmelvalley5k.com The USA Track and Field Sanctioned course will begin at Carmel Del Mar Elementary School and will head south on Carmel Creek Road down to the bike trail, heading east parallel to HWY 56. Runners will pass the Kaiser Per-

manente Carmel Valley medical offices to an out and back along a beautiful tree lined path mixed with paved and trail running, splashed with some rolling hills. The course loops back to Carmel Creek Road leading to the finish line at Carmel Del Mar Elementary School. The community is also invited to join in the family-friendly post party and expo from 8 a.m.-noon that will include a variety of different expo booths from local businesses, the award ceremony, live music, jumpies, food and other entertainment. “Kaiser has been such an avid supporter of health and fitness in the San Diego community, we are so excited to welcome them to Carmel Valley and partner with them” stated Katie Wilsey, who is the director and founder of the race. “This is a race for everyone, from fast elite runners to beginner runners participating in their first race.” The Carmel Valley 5K also has a Fun Run, which allows both kids and parents to participate in a one-mile non-competitive run.

CRIMES continued from page 1 “I think it’s a great way for us to join forces, considering the issues we have,” said Caroline Brown, director of technology and new facilities at SBSD of their agreement. “Maybe we can stop some of these things from happening.” At the DMUSD’s Aug. 28 meeting, Cathy Birks, the assistant superintendent of business services, gave a report about the seven campus crimes. On July 1, the district office was broken into. Three plate glass windows were broken and two laptops taken. The cost was $3,972 for the computers and $2,274 for the building. On July 8, Ocean Air was broken into and three desktop computers were taken at a cost of $4,059. Damage to a broken glass exterior door and glass interior door to the computer lab cost $1,389. On July 25, Sage Canyon was hit and eight desktop computers were stolen at a cost of $10,884 with $930 worth of damages to a

broken exterior glass door. Sage Canyon was hit again five days later on July 30 and six desktops were taken at a cost of $8,334, with $872 in building damages. On Aug. 13, suspects broke into Del Mar Heights School but were unable to steal any computers, although they caused $1,437 worth of damage. On Aug. 17, the same kind of incident occurred at Ocean Air with no computers taken but $1,694 in damages. The latest incident occurred on Aug. 17 at Sage Canyon with two desktops taken at a cost of $2,800, with $1,076 in damages in a broken exterior door. Most of the incidents have occurred between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. The district does have insurance coverage with the San Diego County Schools Risk Management Joint Powers Authority Property and Liability Program. Their deductibles are $200 per device with tablets and handheld devices, $500 per device for computers and projectors, and $1,000 per incident for building damages. “The district is having

At the Aug. 28 meeting, the board approved a new policy on campus security that suggests the reasonable use of surveillance cameras can help the district achieve its goals for campus security. According to the policy, cameras shall not be placed in areas where students, staff or community members have a reasonable expectation of privacy. Sounds will not be recorded and signs will be posted that surveillance might occur. If a community member sees something suspicious around a school campus they should call 911 or the Northwestern Division Police Department at (858) 423-7000.

CENTER continued from page 1 essary. The ordinance can easily be amended by the city. The voter initiative, if it passed and became law, could only be changed or amended by another citywide vote, which could take a long time.” After council members debated to a stalemate and tabled the matter at the June 12 meeting, the Friends of the Fletcher Cove Community Center announced plans at a July council meeting to gather signatures for a voter initiative that would allow residents to use the center for private events like they did in the 1980s and ’90s before the building fell into disrepair. The group said residents raised about 60 percent of the more than $350,000 renovation project, but since then, the facility has been limited to community groups for meetings, classes and city programs. The initiative calls for private use of the center for nominal fees on up to two weekend days per week for as many as 100 people. There would be no limit on alcohol consumption, but all events would be governed by state Alcoholic Beverage Control rules and

by more than $9 million, said Jim Eckmann, chair of the Del Mar Finance Committee and Pension Subcommittee. City staff and the Del Mar Finance Committee recommended Del Mar establish a pension reserve fund and contribute an amount of money each year based on a 15-year amortization period, prevailing interest rates and new standards set by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. GASB 68 is a new accounting policy for all public pension plans, which the city must implement in July 2014. Based on these elements, the Finance Committee estimated the city should set aside $520,000 per year as a local savings account to offset and gradually eliminate the city’s unfunded

pension liabilities. This amount would be adjusted each year, according to the actual GASB reported pension liability with consideration given to the market rate adjustment by Moody’s Investor Services. The funds would be retained on Del Mar’s balance sheet, “so the cash will remain under our control,” said Tom McGreal, member of the Finance Committee and Pension Subcommittee. “The city should pay CalPERS an annual contribution amount that’s equivalent to what the new GASB accounting policy tells us we should be accruing each year because we’re trying to do two things: We’re trying to solve the unfunded liability problem that we have today, and we’re trying to make sure that it doesn’t grow in the future,” McGreal said. “The pension reserve policy we’re advocating addresses a growing problem

that we’ve been looking at now for over a year. It also provides a long-term solution to what really is a longterm pension obligation problem, so it’s properly timed.” In June 2011, the City Council expanded membership of the Del Mar Finance Committee from seven to nine members to analyze the city’s long-term pension obligations and offer solutions. Council members thanked committee and staff members for their work on the issue. “I think that we’re far beyond what other cities and municipalities are doing in looking at our liability and establishing a policy, which is nothing else other than financial discipline on our part,” Councilman Al Corti said. “If nothing else, I think it’s prudent. I think it will help us financially.”

regulations. Noise and occupancy levels would be governed by regulations in the city’s municipal code. “The citizens find it difficult to believe that the City Council has put forth so much effort to try to stop the residents of Solana Beach from using the only coastal venue we have in the city,” said Mary Jane Boyd, a Solana Beach resident and member of the Friends of Fletcher Cove Community Center. “The initiative is very simple. It sets forth the use of Fletcher Cove Community Center in accordance with already established municipal codes. We are not asking for any special treatment. We are not asking for any special conditions. We are not asking for any special rules.” The group had to collect 1,311 valid signatures from Solana Beach voters, which represents 15 percent of registered voters in the city, within 180 days to prompt a special election on the measure. In about a month, roughly 60 volunteers and several paid workers collected more than 2,000 signatures, 70 percent of which volunteers collected, Boyd said. Councilman David Zito said he discovered the Friends of Fletcher Cove Community had not filed paperwork with the city af-

ter some community members inquired about the origin of the organization. For a political action committee to operate within the city and spend more than $200, Zito said, the group is required to file paperwork and pay fees. Still, Boyd and other supporters of the voter initiative urged council members to consider the petition because it received more signatures than needed. “I really think that enough is enough,” Former Mayor Celine Olson said. “You’re not doing your duty as council members. I voted for everyone and I’m really disappointed, not that anybody cares about that.” The city has considered the issue since the renovation of the 1,100-square-foot center was completed in 2011. The city spent nearly $32,000 on environmental studies regarding a proposal to rent the center for private functions. While city officials and residents tried to develop a use policy, neighborhood residents and other community members expressed concerns about alcohol being served at events, impacts on traffic and parking, and noise disturbances. Solana Beach resident Kelly Harless said the Friends of the Fletcher Cove Community Center “contin-

ues to essentially blackmail the city.” “First they threaten a voter initiative unless a use policy was established,” said Harless, a member of the Friends of Fletcher Cove, a community group she said formed out of concern about the misinformation being spread to the community. The group filed the required paperwork and paid fees to the city, she added. “When we once again agreed to compromise and City Council drafted a use policy allowing alcohol and addressing the parking issues, this group refused to budge an inch unless they got their exact use policy — not the one City Council feels is best suited for the community as a whole.” The petition was filed with the city clerk Aug. 27, and is currently in a 30-day review for content certification and signature verification, said City Clerk Angela Ivey. A special election would cost about $200,000, not including the $7,000$9,000 it costs to verify the signatures, Ivey said. “I think we came up with a really good compromise,” Mayor Mike Nichols said. “It’s reasonable and affordable, and it’s just unfortunate that it’s being criticized before it’s even put into place.”

front of it before parent-teacher conferences in November,” Peterson said. In the new report card, scores are earned based on students’ demonstration of mastery of a cluster of core curriculum standards. Effort, attitude, homework and participation are recorded separately from progress toward academic goals. Board member Scott Wooden expressed some concern about the new report cards, wondering how it can be measured if a student is “secure” and if it could be considered

grade inflation by reporting that everyone is doing great. “I just want to make sure we’re not dumbing this down,” Wooden said. Peterson said it is absolutely not dumbing it down, that the standards are much more rigorous and student must demonstrate a mastery and a depth of understanding. Peterson said that the report card actually more accurately represents the present levels of student achievement and will be an important tool in “furthering clear understanding regarding student growth.”

Former global communications executive launches cyber-security company BY JOE TASH Companies around the world are at greater risk than ever of losing their coveted trade secrets to computer hackers, said local resident Hossein Eslambolchi, and his new venture aims to help businesses bolster their cyber-defenses. Eslambolchi, 55, is a former top executive with global communications giant AT&T. He recently helped launch La Jolla-based CyberFlow Analytics, Inc., which is developing software that it contends will provide companies with an “early warning system” against corporate espionage and Advanced Persistent Threats (APT). APTs are attacks by hackers in which a virus is implanted into a victim’s computer network, then remains dormant for months before beginning to extract and send back vital information. The need for new methods of defending against hackers is great, said Eslambolchi, because more and more devices linked to the Internet are being used in all aspects of daily life. For example, he said, malicious hackers could target computers used to control “smart cars,” causing massive traffic jams, or even medical devices such as pacemakers and insulin pumps. “I believe we’re heading in that direction,” said Eslambolchi. Murray Jennex, a professor at San Diego State University and cyber-security expert, agreed that cyber attacks are on the rise in frequency, severity and sophistication. “We’re noticing a lot more (attacks) this year than we have in the past,” said Jennex, who has predicted that a “watershed” cyber attack will occur somewhere in the world this year. Jennex said he hopes he’s wrong, but that in his opinion, cyber security has not kept up with advances in technology. He attended a security conference in Las Vegas called Black Hat, where hackers penetrated a variety of devices, from smart TVs to phones to utility meters. The software under development by CyberFlow analyzes and monitors activity within a computer network, providing an early warning to clients before their data is damaged or stolen by hackers, Eslambolchi said. In July, the company announced that Toshiba American Electronic Components, Inc., had invested $2 million into the start-up venture. Eslambolchi said a prototype of the software is expected to be unveiled within the next month, Beta versions will be ready by the beginning of next year, and the product launch is slated for the second quarter of 2014. Eslambolchi said CyberFlow’s security software has global applications, from the corporate world to government agencies. “I look at us to become the Google of cyber

Hossein Eslambolchi security,” he said. “This will turn the security industry on its head,” said Matthias Hynes, CyberFlow’s vice president of sales and marketing. “It’s nextgeneration security using mathematics.” Jennex said security experts have been using analytics for some time to detect suspicious online activity, but the industry is always seeking better algorithms. Most important is software that can “learn” and recognize new patterns indicating the presence of intruders, he said. “Cyber attacks are constantly evolving, the attackers are slightly changing things,” he said. While Eslambolchi’s goals for CyberFlow may sound ambitious, he does have an impressive track record as a technology innovator. After emigrating from his native Iran as a teenager,

Eslambolchi played varsity soccer at the University of Oklahoma, where he pursued a medical degree. After switching his studies to engineering and applied physics, he transferred to UC San Diego, earning bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate degrees. In 1986, he joined the staff of AT&T’s Bell Labs as a technology staffer, and he steadily rose through the ranks over the next 20 years. He held such positions as chief information officer and president and CEO of Global Networking Technology Services before leaving the company in 2006. After leaving AT&T, he served as a technology consultant, then helped found LonoCloud, Inc., which created cloud networking software and was purchased earlier this year by Carlsbadbased ViaSat, Inc. Eslambolchi’s name is attached to some 1,000 U.S. patents, which are either completed, pending or in preparation. Some of the patents were filed in conjunction with colleagues at AT&T, while others are solely in his name, he said. He’s also received numerous awards for his work, and is slated to receive an Edison award in November from the Research and Development Council of New Jersey for software he helped develop that allows smart phone users to text contributions to charities. Among his inventions are a system to fix breaks in

a fiber-optic cable in just a few minutes, rather than the 12 to 14 hours under the old system, and a device to detect potential disruptions to a fiber-optic line before the line is actually cut, Eslambolchi said. He’s also written a book about technology, called “2020 Vision: Business Transformation Through Technology Innovation,” and helped found the Center for Networked Systems at the UCSD School of Engineering.

More than a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;river in Egypt,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; denial may be the key to human evolution, dominance BY PAT SHERMAN â&#x20AC;&#x153;Optimism is denying realityâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;reality isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very comfortingâ&#x20AC;? said Dr. Ajit Varki, a distinguished professor of medicine and cellular and molecular medicine at UC San Diego, speaking recently with this newspaper group. Sound bleak? Depressing? Maybe not. As Varki posits in his new book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Denial: Self-Deception, False Beliefs, and the Origins of the Human Mind,â&#x20AC;? our unique ability to deny reality may also be the key to our success on the evolutionary ladder. Varki will discuss his theory and sign copies of his book at Warkwickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in La Jolla, at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 11. Though scientists have long sought to answer the question, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What makes us human?â&#x20AC;? Varki believes researchers should instead be asking what has stopped even the most intelligent animals such as dolphins, elephants, crows and chimpanzees â&#x20AC;&#x201D;which have demonstrated everything from the ability to form social groups making tools â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from becoming human-like. The primary human attribute these animals lack is referred to as â&#x20AC;&#x153;theory of mind,â&#x20AC;? the ability to attribute oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own mental states â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including beliefs, intentions, desire, knowledge and imaginings â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to others (or more simply put, the ability to put oneself in anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shoes). It is also what allows two people not in each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presence to correspond via phone or e-mail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There have been some pretty smart creatures around for a long time, yet thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only one species like humans that can put out newspapers, have phone conversations, act in comedy shows or give lectures,â&#x20AC;? Varki said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a chimpanzee, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m self-aware â&#x20AC;Ś but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not truly conscious of the consciousness of another chimpanzee.â&#x20AC;? Yet, theory of mind is also what alerted our human ancestors to the ultimate, grizzly reality: our own mortality. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first time you get this knowledge itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very discomforting,â&#x20AC;? said Varki, who believes human brains likely developed a capacity for denying reality as a means of survival. Since it is unlikely that the brain would develop something as specific as denial of death, Varki said humans developed a broader capacity to deny anything they dislike, wish to avoid or find objectionable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know many cardiologists who â&#x20AC;Ś watch other people

UC San Diego Distinguished Professor of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Dr. Ajit Varki, poses in the lab at UC San Diego. Courtesy die of heart attacks and strokes from smoking and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still smoking cigarettes,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re supposed to do in terms of exercise and eating right, and we just ignore all of that.â&#x20AC;? In the book, Varki uses the phrase â&#x20AC;&#x153;mind over realityâ&#x20AC;? to express this. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Actually, what we have is diminished fear responses,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We humans do crazy things. We jump out of planes, we drive fast cars. â&#x20AC;Ś When thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tornado in the Midwest, all the animals disappear 10 to 15 minutes early, all the humans come out to watch.â&#x20AC;? A positive byproduct: optimism Once humans obtained the ability to deny, the world became a much more tolerable place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do amazing things,â&#x20AC;? Varki said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care what they say, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to swim across the English Channelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to try out this crazy new idea everybody thinks is not going to work.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; So, denial also gives us optimism.â&#x20AC;?

and religious, Varki said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In some case the denials are actually good, because they help us get through the day and get things done,â&#x20AC;? he said. However, not all denial-based optimism is good, said Varki, citing mankindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collective denial of global warming, and Americans denial of the national debt (each U.S. taxpayer owes approximately $100,000 as their share of the national debt, now more than $16 trillion). â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have this magical thinking,â&#x20AC;? Varki said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People just completely ignore it; they just put it out of their mind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe we will strike some new economic model and will pull ourselves out (of debt), but when it comes to climate change, we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pull ourselves out. â&#x20AC;Ś Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one case where we cannot afford to keep denying. We have to face up to the reality.â&#x20AC;? The root of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Denialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Varkiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book was co-authored by the late Danny Brower, a professor in the department of molecular and cellular biology and biochemistry and molecular biophysics at the University of Arizona. It was Brower who first presented the evolutionary denial theory to Varki in 2005. Varki was finishing a lecture on his current research (comparing differences in the surfaces of cell molecules in humans and chimpanzees) when Brower approached him. The two discussed Browerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theory at some length, after which Varki suggested Brower publish his theory. He never did. Upon learning of Browerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death, Varki published an article about Browerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theory in the journal, Nature. Browerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s widow, Sharon, saw the article and contacted Varki to ask if he would finish her husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s half-completed manuscript on the subject. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The book itself is an example of what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about,â&#x20AC;? said Varki, who is splitting the bookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proceeds with Browerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s widow. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here you have a book written by two people who only met for an hour and a half. I get a copy of that incomplete manuscript and I can imagine what he was thinking when he wrote what he wrote, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m able to finish his book with my own thoughts.â&#x20AC;?

Strauss retires as Del Mar Thoroughbred Carmel Valley resident Pamela M. Parker appointed to judgeship Club chairman; Batchelder is successor On Aug. 29, Governor Jerry Brown appointed Carmel Valley resident Pamela M. Parker to a judgeship with the San Diego County Superior Court. Parker currently serves as a senior appellate attorney at the Fourth District Court of Appeal in downtown San Diego. Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s legal career spans over 30 years, during which she served as an adjunct professor at the University of San Diego Law School and Thomas Jefferson School of Law, President of the Legal Aid Society of San Diego, and judge pro tem in Small Claims Court. From 1991 to 2011, Parker worked with the San Diego law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP, as of counsel, partner and associate. During her time with that firm, Parker was part of the legal team representing fishermen and Native Alaskans in the Exxon Valdez oil spill trial. She was named a Trial Lawyer of the Year by the Trial Lawyers for Public Justice, in recognition for her work on a case brought to improve working conditions and compensation for garment workers in Saipan. Parker is a cum laude graduate of the Harvard Law School, and a phi beta kappa graduate of the State University of New York at Binghamton. Parker has lived in Carmel Valley since 1998 with her marine biologist husband, Michael Scott, and their two daughters, Katie and Maddie, both of whom are now in college. She has been an active classroom volunteer, soccer mom, and a volunteer with the Solana Beach and San Dieguito school systems.

Robert S. Strauss, an international statesman, presidential cabinet member and one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top lawyers who has headed the Del Mar Thoroughbred Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of directors as its chairman for the past 12 years, announced Aug. 30 that he would be stepping down from his DMTC role, effective immediately. The 94-year-old Strauss, who served both Democratic and Republican presidents over the course of an accomplished legal and political career, has a special love for Del Mar, a place he has been coming to for more than half a century. Stepping up to take on the role of chairman, by unanimous vote of the nine-member DMTC board convened at a meeting at the track Aug. 30, is David H. Batchelder, 63, a businessman who has been a board member for the past five years and is a racehorse owner with a deep passion for the game. Strauss, who has served on the DMTC board since 1988, has agreed to stay involved as both a director and chairman emeritus. He said he has treasured his association with his favorite racetrack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Del Mar is just a wonderful place to be each summer and it has been my great joy to be involved with it over these many years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fine sport, the special people and the marvelous setting have all blended together to make it a magical summer playground for any and all.â&#x20AC;? Strauss lives primarily in Washington, D.C., but takes up residence at his oceanfront home in Del Mar each summer. He plans on continuing those arrangements into the future.

Carmel Valley father and son co-author popular book ‘The Big Decision’ BY KAREN BILLING A Carmel Valley father and son have collaborated together on a new book, “The Big Decision,” a story and framework to inspire and empower better life decisions. Daniel Friedland, MD, and his son, Zach, each wrote half of the book that is driven by Friedland’s “four-step framework,” a decision-making process he has taught to healthcare professionals, business leaders and clients of his company SuperSmartHealth. The book was released on July 22 and has became a number one Kindle bestseller on Amazon.com in the parenting and teenagers category. “I was really surprised that it took off so fast,” Zach said. “It’s been a joy to watch the book start to take on a life of its own,” Daniel said. Just as the book was written by father and son, it is the hope the book will be read by parents and children, teachers and students to hopefully “facilitate meaningful discussions,” Daniel said. “The Big Decision” has also attracted some big at-

Zach Friedland and Daniel Friedland, MD tention. In October, Zach, a Carmel Valley Middle School eighth grader, will be the youngest person not only to attend the Conscious Captitalism CEO Summit in Texas featuring some of the most influential CEOs in the country, but the 14-yearold will also share the stage with his father for a presentation on “The Big Decision.” Zach and his dad are on a list

of speakers that includes trail-blazing CEOs such as Frank Blake of Home Depot; Walter Robb of Whole Foods; Ron Shaich of Panera Bread; and former Major League Baseball Manager Tony LaRussa. “What are the odds that a 14-year-old out of Carmel Valley would present in this setting?” Daniel asked. In prepping for this big presentation, Zach said he is not nervous and feels comfortable in front of large groups. In Zach’s half of the book (11 chapters), he tells the story of Ryan, a secondstring running back on a Pop Warner football team. After the starting running back is injured, the underdog Ryan steps up and has several big games for his team. Ryan then has to make a decision on whether to attend his team’s championship game or his favorite aunt’s wedding. “Everybody is counting on Ryan for the championship game so it really loads the decision,” Daniel said. “I’d never written anything like this before,” said Zach, but he drew inspiration from his own experience as a Torrey Pines Fal-

con running back and lacrosse player. Daniel, a native of South Africa, has written books before. He wrote textbooks for McGraw Hill on evidence-based medicine, a process he teaches physicians. In Daniel’s half of the book, he explains the brain science behind decisionmaking and how people can better train their brain and thinking with his four-step framework. “The beauty about writing this book with Zach was as a dad, my greatest wish is to be able to give my kids meaningful life lessons as they emerge into manhood. Zach solved the problem himself in the book, working the four-step process,” Daniel said. “He came up with a beautiful, amazing ending.” During the process of writing the book, Zach had an experience where he didn’t use his dad’s decisionmaking framework and made a poor choice. He was jumping off rocks at the beach in Del Mar, each time making bigger leaps. On one of those jumps he landed on concrete and injured his ankle, just before he was set to

travel across country to compete in a lacrosse tournament in Maryland. “Standing on that rock it feels good to go for it, but he wasn’t weighing the risks and rewards, taking a future long view,” Daniel said. “Usually a parent would be very upset but we never had that angry discussion. I asked him ‘What do you think about the decision you made?’” In middle school and high school, teens will be faced with all kinds of decisions about things that may feel good in the short term (alcohol, drugs, sex) but may carry big consequences in the future — Daniel said it’s about giving teens the framework to make the right decisions. Zach’s decision does have a happy ending — he took the advice of a doctor to go on a superfood, antiinflammatory diet (cutting out all sugar and wheat) that helped heal his ankle in time to have a breakout tournament. Now it’s a health strategy he uses before all his big tournaments. Since the book’s release, the pair had their first book

Several charity breakfasts were held in the weeks leading up to the opening for staff to practice and to raise money for Snooze’s community partners: the Del Mar Schools Education Foundation, Helen Woodward Animal Center and San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy.

scape Architects and the Roesling Nakamura Terada Architects — at the San Dieguito Lagoon in the San Dieguito River Park. The lagoon has regional ecological significance providing food and shelter for endangered wildlife and migratory birds. For over 20 years, school classes and other groups have visited the lagoon area. Currently, some eight groups a month (about 100 students — elementary, high school and college-level) visit the lagoon. By providing the classroom, this number can be expanded, so that people of all ages can learn about and enjoy the lagoon habitats at this educational gathering place. The opportunity for students to take field trips to the lagoon and to experience hands-on nature education is “imperative and memorable.” To purchase tickets, please visit: www.bellyup. com/event/lagoon-open-airclassroom-benefit/. If you have any questions, please contact the SDRVC at sdrvc@sdrvc.org or visit our website at sdrvc.org.

New dancers who completed the Modern American Square Dance Class this summer will serve as “angels” to help new dancers learn the steps when the Sandpipers Square Dance Club offers the class again beginning Sept. 10. The class is open to the public, including children 10 and up when accompanied by adults. Your first lesson is free so you can try it out – classes are week-to-week with no long-term commitment.

Free Square Dance lessons offered The Sandpipers Square Dance Club will hold free square dance lessons from 7 – 9 p.m. Sept. 10 and 17 at the La Colonia Community Center, 715 Valley Avenue, Solana Beach, 92075. The classes will offer an introduction to Modern American Square Dancing. In the modern version of the classic American dance, participants dance to a variety of musical styles, utilizing pre-learned movements to follow the calls or instructions of a Caller who creates the dance as he goes. The fast-moving activity provides a great source of exercise, a lot of laughter, and relief from stress as dancers “turn themselves over” to the Caller. Participants will have an opportunity to learn some basic movements and see if square dancing is an activity they would like to pursue. The class is open to children 10 years and older if they participate with their parents. Refreshments will be served. For more information, call Steve Schock at 760-436-5207 or visit www.SandpipersSquareDanceClub.org. The Sandpipers are the North Coast Affiliate of the local Palomar Square Dance Association, serving residents from Oceanside to Del Mar for the past 41 years.

Give the City’s Fletcher Cove Community Center policy a chance If you’re a Solana Beach taxpayer, you may be surprised to learn that the Fletcher Cove party policy Initiative comes with a $250,000 price tag for a special election. That’s right, a small group is using the Initiative process in an attempt to override the City’s new compromise policy for private rentals at the Fletcher Cove Community Center (FCCC). You may also be surprised to learn that the Initiative sponsors had up to 180 days to turn their petition signatures in to the City. Submitting their signatures on or after Dec. 1 would have allowed the City to put the sponsors’ party policy Initiative on the June primary ballot at a fraction of the cost. Instead, the sponsors chose to submit their signatures on Aug. 27 and purposely force the city to spend at least $250,000 to hold a special election — all in an effort to inflate the City’s new policy by doubling the number of guests, quadrupling the frequency and allowing unlimited alcohol to be served at FCCC private parties. $250,000 is quite a price tag for a party policy. The Initiative sponsors’ insistence that the City adopt their party policy without an election is a typical example of their unwavering “my way or the highway” stance. Further, why would the City adopt their Initiative knowing that signatures were gathered under false pretenses? It’s become clear that many of the petition signers were unaware the petition could trigger a special election, let alone cost the City $250,000 and that, if enacted, the Initiative party policy could not be modified without another election. Taking all sides of the issue into consideration the City Council approved a reasonable and workable policy that allows private parties every other weekend at the FCCC for 50 guests with limited beer and wine. On the flip side, the sponsors’ party policy Initiative disregards the impacts on parking, traffic and safety for all Solana Beach residents and visitors to the beach, parks, restaurants and shops in the Fletcher Cove area. The Initiative sponsors’ strong-arm tactics to force a special election, combined with their refusal to give the City’s rental policy a chance to work, proves they want to dictate to the rest of us exactly how the Fletcher Cove Community Center should be regulated. Let’s give the City’s policy a chance. Kelly Harless Solana Beach

Fairgrounds’ pot and beer fest don’t mix Re “Sample a wide variety of craft brews at Del Mar Beer Fest – Aug. 30th”: The beer fest and subsequent pot fest with a Ziggy Marley concert don’t mix. This past Saturday’s beer/ pot fest was a toke, I mean joke. Think about it, beer and pot at a public venue like the fairgrounds is inappropriate and dangerous. There were several arrests that night during and after the concert, hopefully keeping a few of these inebriated folks off the streets. Several years ago the Fair managers wisely decided against booking reggae bands because of the pot smoking fans they attracted to the fairgrounds. The Fair managers understood reggae will bring out to our public venue pot smokers, so they book other bands instead. Unfortunately, the managers of the after-race concerts, who are different from the Fair managers, don’t seem to care about the acts they book. They don’t seem to care the reggae bands are all ages, subjecting kids to pot smoke. They can bring their followers of pot smokers; just as long as they pack the concert and spend their cash is clearly the race concert managers thinking. What is more important to race concert managers, making a buck, or protecting a public asset from blatant illegal pot smoking? Sure, other non-reggae bands will attract pot smokers, but reggae concerts are truly laughable with the amount of illegal smoking that occurs. Public property has a higher (no pun intended), standard to live by and shouldn’t be managed by a profits first mentality. Michael Jacobsen Encinita

Guest column: The highs and lows of blood pressure BY ALI HAMZEI, MD, SCRIPPS HEALTH It’s routine at nearly every doctor’s appointment—the nurse wraps a blood pressure cuff around your arm, pumps it up a bit, and waits for the reading. Between appointments, you may also have taken your own blood pressure using the do-it-yourself machine at the drugstore. What exactly do those numbers mean? Blood pressure measures the force of blood against the walls of the blood vessels. It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), and is expressed in two numbers, such as 120/80mmHg. The first number (systolic) measures the pressure as the

heart beats. The second number (diastolic) represents the pressure between heartbeats as the blood flows to the rest of the body. According to the current national guidelines, a normal blood pressure reading is less than 120 systolic and less than 80 diastolic. High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is defined as 140/90 mmHg or above. Even if it is not in the “high” range, a reading of 120 to 139 systolic and 80 to 89 diastolic indicates prehypertension, which increases the risk of developing high blood pressure. In the U.S., about 1 in 3 adults will have blood pressure reading that is too high, indicating a possible risk of

serious cardiovascular problems including heart attack, stroke and kidney disease. The higher the pressure, the greater the risk of heart disease and stroke. In fact, beginning at 115/75, with each 20 mmHg increase in systolic blood pressure and 10 mmHg diastolic, the risk of stroke and heart attack doubles. After age 50, a systolic blood pressure above 140 mmHg is a greater risk factor for stroke and heart disease than diastolic blood pressure. Although some people with high blood pressure experience such symptoms as headache, shortness of breath, and blurred vision,

Nanny Republic Greetings from the Nanny Republic of Solana Beach where if you want to celebrate a special occasion such as a wedding, anniversary, or birthday, the City Council will be happy to micromanage your party for you at the new Fletcher Cove Community Center. For example, they will require that if your guests want to drink a glass of champagne (limit two) they must do so while cooped up inside the unventilated building. They cannot venture out on to the patio or lawn on the bluff overlooking the ocean. Oh, and you must employ a trained nanny to keep count on how many glasses each guest has consumed. They will also tell you which musical instruments are allowed and they will prohibit any amplification of voice or music even if within the noise ordinance limits. And the 50 person occupancy limit includes caterers, musicians, and the nanny. The neighbors say these and other restrictions are for their safety and quality of life. It is obvious to many of us that the real purpose of these and several more excessive restrictions recently adopted by the Council is to deter private citizens from using the Center for celebrations. Fortunately, the local initiative process enables the vast majority of citizens to overcome the power of a few neighbors and a majority of City Council members who seem to be under their spell. The neighbors are now claiming the half-truth that the City will be forced to spend as much as $300,000 for a special election. There is no need for an election if the Council acts in the interest of the whole community and simply adopts the Initiative. Its terms are reasonable and conform to the Municipal Codes for noise, parking, alcohol, occupancy, etc., which have worked for years. Bruce Berend Solana Beach

Proposed Fletcher Cove Community Center restrictions a good start In his recent letter about the proposed Community Center restrictions, Mitchell Miller represents himself as the voice of the “fun-loving” people, objecting to a proposed two-drink maximum and the exclusion of amplified music as “unnecessary, improper and silly.” Well, who says others are not “fun loving.” Maybe their idea of fun does not require more than two drinks and artificially loud music. In reference to the restrictions on the occurrence of private events, Mr. Miller states “This means the Community Center will go unused more than half of the available time.” During those other times it could be increasingly used for public events, it does not follow that it will be unused. He states that the City of Del Mar does not impose restrictions like these. The Del Mar Powerhouse is not next to a residential neighborhood and there is significant parking across the street from it, as well as in the surrounding commercial district. The proposed restrictions may need some fine tuning, but they seem to be a good start at bringing the Community Center on-line, while still respecting the rights of adjacent neighbors to the peaceful enjoyment of their property.

PETERS continued from page 4 the rates and payments. “For my part, I think we are underemphasizing the affordability of college,” Peters added. “Part of it is trying to hold down increases in costs at colleges and universities, which has exceeded the rate of inflation. I’d love to see us take that up as part of our budget negotiations, but have a bigger discussion about how to make sure that college is affordable for every American kid who qualifies.” The former two-term San Diego City Council member said he was saddened by the sexual harassment scandal that led to last month’s resignation of Mayor Bob Filner (he reportedly left a phone message for Filner early on, asking him to resign early and with a modicum of dignity). “Clearly, I think everyone wished he’d called me back,” Peter said, while expressing his confidence in the city’s newly appointed chief operating officer, Walt Ekard, and Interim Mayor Todd Gloria. Peters said he’s weighing the field of potential mayoral contenders in the upcoming special election. “I expect to be engaged in helping to find the right mayor,” he said. “It’s an important for the city and I’ll probably get involved with a candidate in the next couple of weeks.” At press time last week former City Councilmember and 2012 mayoral candidate Carl DeMaio hadn’t announced whether he would drop his intended challenge of Peters congressional seat to run for mayor. Asked if Peters would rather see DeMaio challenge him, or vie to take San Diego’s mayoral reins, Peters chucked, “I’m enjoying watching him go back and forth like everybody else.” Peters said he is sticking by his campaign promise to be a public servant who builds bridges, and eschews hardline partisanship. “I’m the fourth most independent Democrat, according to the National Journal,” Peters said, noting lingering surprise with entrenched partisanship in the nation’s capitol. “We take for granted the California culture of collaboration and cooperation,” he said. “It’s very common for us to sit around the table and figure out problems without regard to rank or hierarchy. When you go to Washington, D.C. you really notice how they could really use a dose of our leadership style … (being) less worried about what your title is than what your idea is.”

signing at the Aspen Institute in Colorado where Daniel was a keynote speaker at a health symposium. He brought Zach and his youngest son, Dylan, on stage with him to tell the story about the new book and they all received a standing ovation. Zach then did a book signing — signing nearly 50 copies and swapping books with actress and author Mariel Hemingway. This spring, Zach also worked with Lisa Wilken’s fifth grade class at Torrey Hills School on a four-week program about decision making. “I was surprised to see that they got what we were talking about and how big some of the decisions they were already making were,” said Zach, noting one child was having to make a decision about which parent to live with after a divorce. Zach plans to come back this year and work with a sixth grade class. “I’d love to see the book used in curriculums in schools, it could go all the way to high school,” Daniel said. “Our mission is that we want individuals to feel inspired and empowered to make good decisions in their lives and really understand the process that goes around it. It has been a wonderful, joyous mission to work with Zach.” Readers can watch a trailer for the book as well as order the book online at thebigdecisionbook.com/ get-book.

most patients experience no symptoms. Therefore, without testing you won’t know if your blood pressure increases—or even if it is high to begin with. That’s why it’s important to have a blood pressure check at least once a year, either by a professional or with a self-testing machine. Age is one of the most significant risk factors for high blood pressure. Lifestyle also plays a role; behaviors that can help keep blood pressure under control include maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, not smoking and limiting the amount of sodium in your diet. Unfortunately, fewer than half of adults with high blood pressure take steps to keep it under control. If lifestyle modifications are not successful, medication may be needed. This may be the case for

When blood pressure is much lower than normal, the heart, brain, organs and tissues do not get enough blood. As a result, they are deprived of the oxygen and other nutrients they need to function optimally. Symptoms of hypotension may include fatigue, lack of energy, lightheadedness, confusion, blurry vision, fainting and nausea or vomiting. Low blood pressure can have several causes. In severe cases, it can be triggered by a sudden loss of blood, a serious infection, or a heart attack. Some people experience low blood pressure when they stand suddenly after sitting or lying down for a while; in these cases, the drop in blood pressure usually lasts only a

brush with the law an `àverage crime.’’ The defendant’s fiancee, Tamara Wright, who is due to give birth to Burleson’s child in October, begged the court for a more lenient sentence. `Ì want him (the defendant) to be a part of my child’s life,’’ Wright told the judge. Burleson reiterated that he wanted to get out of custody as soon as possible to be with his fiancee and baby. `Ì know that what I did was wrong,’’ Burleson told the court. Co-defendant Trevor J. Williams, also 21, was sentenced earlier this month to seven years behind bars and Eyon Zimmerman, 19, was sentenced to five years in prison in connection with thefts at nine San Diego County schools over a two-month period. Both defendants pleaded guilty to burglary charges, and admitted the gang allegation. Authorities said the thefts began last Nov. 18. Some of the defendants used their cell phones in the area of the schools the nights of the break-ins, according to previous court testimony. The defendants were arrested Jan. 30 at a Temeculaarea Border Patrol checkpoint. The iPads stolen from the Del Mar school earlier that morning or the night before were recovered from the defendants’ car, along with a laptop computer, bolt cutters and a projector. Graduate Law Clerk Meredeth Kimble, arguing for the prosecution, told the judge that the break-in at the Del Mar school was well-planned, with the defendants driving from Riverside to San Diego to commit the crime.

Del Mar ‘Super-Senior’ tennis star competing for world title BY GIDEON RUBIN Cathie Anderson grew up in the Midwest when the opportunity to develop her tennis skills was restricted by a harsh climate and the limited facilities of the times. “We put our rackets away in September and didn’t take them out again until May or June,” she said. “There was no such thing as indoor courts back then.” Anderson, who was raised in Dayton, Ohio, has found no such limitations since moving to the West Coast to attend UC Berkeley where, in the early 1960s, she emerged from obscurity to become an amateur star. Her collegiate career was highlighted by reaching the NCAA individuals finals one year. “Once I got out here I worked hard,” she said. “I played a lot once I got to play year-round.” Anderson, now 70, still plays as much as ever. Next week, she’ll represent the United States Tennis Association at the 33rd International Tennis Federation SuperSeniors World Team Championships in Vienna, Austria. The Sept. 9 - 14 tournament will be held simultaneously in Austria and the Czech Republic. She will compete as an individual in the Althea Gibson Cup team on the women’s over-70-circuit. Anderson is among four players who will represent the United States in the 60, 65, 70, 75 and 80 and older age groups (for men and women). The ITF Super-Seniors World Team Championships is the senior tennis equivalent of the Davis Cup and Fed Cup. It is considered the ITF Seniors circuit’s most prestigious event. Anderson has been competing on the senior circuits for decades. She won the over-50 individuals world title in Barcelona in the early 1990s. Anderson is the USTA’s No. 2 ranked singles player. Her doubles partner, Donna Fales of Florida, is No. 1. Anderson

Cathie Anderson and Fales are the USTA’s topranked doubles team. Anderson wasn’t a complete novice when she tried out for the tennis team at Berkeley, but she acknowledged playing under-18 juniors tournaments didn’t exactly portend national stardom. Anderson has been competing in the USTA circuit since her late 20s, when she was still living in North-

ern California, and started playing in senior events a few years after that. A threeor four-year period during which she started a family in her mid 20s is about the only time she can remember that she didn’t play competitive tennis. “I’m just sort of a competitive person, I like competing,” she said. “I got to go to fun places and travel with different people.” And it seems elite-level competition has taken Anderson just about everywhere. Her passport is filled with stamps from South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, and Croatia, among other far-flung destinations around the world. “I’ve been all over the place playing tennis,” she said. Anderson ranks the social aspect of playing on the super senior circuit right up there with the fitness benefits. She remains an avid tennis fan, traveling to Lon-

don to attend Wimbledon earlier this year, and the U.S. Open in New York earlier this month with her tennis pals. “We have fun going out to the matches, sightseeing and shopping,” she said. Although technically a professional, Anderson said the rewards for winning international tournaments don’t include big prize money. “When you say you’re a professional [tennis player] everyone thinks we’re making millions of dollars, but that’s not the case,” she said. “We try to get into the top in our age group, and then the USTA will send us someplace nice to play our international event, but we really don’t make much money. It’s a way to travel and still compete.” Anderson has proven herself to be a formidable opponent to those of all ages. She recently defeated a player much younger at an inter-age group tournament in Los Angeles.

“She

cried,” Anderson

said. One of the best things about the super senior circuit is that the clock resets every five years. At 70, Anderson is among the youngest players in her division. “The first year or so [in an age group] it’s much easier, you’re the youngest one,” Anderson said. “By the time you get to the fifth year you’re the oldest one and it gets harder; then you start to get young again because it changes every five years.” Anderson acknowledged she never imagined that she’d still be competing at her age. But she has no plans of giving the sport up anytime soon. “My mother and father used to play a little bit, but at 45 or 40 they said ‘Oh, that’s too old, we’re starting golf now.’ “I’m not quite ready for golf yet.”

BY GIDEON RUBIN Torrey Pines: Torrey Pines has made the playoffs five straight years, reaching the quarterfinals each of the last three seasons, with its best showing in 2010, when the Falcons reached the semifinals. The Falcons hope to keep that tradition going with a team that graduated 31 seniors. Key returnees include junior Jack Bailey, the team’s leading receiver last year with 20 receptions for 326 yards and three touchdowns. Bailey also had nine carries for 80 yards. Also back is senior running back Dwayne Hines, a powerful and swift 5-foot-11 190-pounder who rushed for 120 yards and three touchdowns on 20 carries last season. The Falcons opened with a 19-14 loss to San Pasqual on Aug. 30 in a nonleague game for both teams. Cathedral Catholic: An amazing run that started at Qualcomm Stadium in 2007 ended last season in the office of an administrator. It was in the office of Jerry Schniepp, the San Diego Section commissioner, that Cathedral Catholic was ruled ineligible to compete for a sixth consecutive San Diego Section Division III title. The Dons were forced to forfeit all eight regular season wins for using an ineligible player. The school self-reported the infraction, which school officials said was the result of a clerical error. The Dons hope to settle their business this year in front of crowded stadiums and Friday night lights – trappings that over recent years have been much more to their liking than the stuffy offices where last year’s playoff aspirations ended. The Dons, who experienced heavy graduation losses, will count on a fresh crop of newcomers to help them write what they hope will be the next chapter in their football dynasty. Running back Tony Johnson (1,202 rushing yards, 18 touchdowns); quarterback Garrett Bogart (1,148 passing yards); and receivers Xavier Williams (672 receiving yards, seven touchdowns) and Drew Gaffney (278 receiving yards) were among the most productive of the 27 players the Dons graduated. They’re off to a good start after opening with a 38-6 trouncing of Jordan (Sandy, Utah) on Aug. 30. Especially encouraging from a Dons standpoint was some of the newcomers excelling in their roles. The Dons backfield tandem of seniors Chris Moliga and Joshua Gizzi combined for 244 rushing yards and three touchdowns, and junior quarterback Clayton Dale completed eight of 17 pass attempts for 110 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. Moliga rushed for 132 yards and two touchdowns on 23 carries, and Gizzi gained 112 yards and one score on 20 carries. Both players rushed for 335 yards last season. Dale attempted just 12 passes last season, completing seven for 210 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions. Junior tight end Daniel Plum, who didn’t play on the varsity last year, caught six passes for 77 yards and two touchdowns. Santa Fe Christian:

Photo/Jon Clark The perennial small school power is coming off one of its best seasons ever. Santa Fe Christian won the Division V San Diego Section championship and went on to reach the Division IV state championship game, becoming the first team in school history to do so. The Eagles graduated 11 seniors but they return several key players, including standout senior running back Tony Miro, who rushed for 1,137 yards and 14 touchdowns on 150 carries. Other key returnees include senior running back Jerry Harper (630 rushing yards, nine touchdowns) and junior quarterback Carter Roberts. The Eagles opened the season with a 17-9 loss to La Costa Canyon in a nonleague game for both teams on Aug. 30, a deceptively strong showing for SFC considering it was playing a much larger enrollment Division II power. San Diego Jewish Academy:

San Diego Jewish Academy hopes to recover from a tough 2012 season in which injuries to several key players contributed to persistent growing pains. The Lions will hope to rebound from a tough 0-7 season with the returns of seniors Adam Sloane and Jake Posnock. Sloane, a receiver, had to play on the offensive line after being diagnosed with a stress fracture early on. He ended up being an All-Pacific League honorable mention at that position but his real strength is as a receiver, where the athletic and powerful 6-foot-3, 225-pounder creates difficult matchup problems for opponents. Posnock, a two-way standout who plays middle linebacker, halfback and center, didn’t play a down all year after suffering a shoulder injury but showed up for every practice and was an inspirational force on the sideline of every game. Both will be counted on for their leadership as the Lions look to a future without Micah Weinstein, the school’s all -time leading passer, who graduated earlier this year.

Retired Del Mar teacher continues to teach at San Elijo Lagoon BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although Carol Sharpe retired from the Del Mar Union School District two years ago, she continues to teach children at San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve.

Elijo Lagoon, nearly 1,000 acres of coastal wetlands located between Cardiff-by-the-Sea and Solana Beach, extending inland from Pacific Coast Highway to Rancho Santa Fe. “For me, it was such a fit,” said 70-year-old Sharpe, who worked as a teacher for 25 years, most recently as a third grade teacher at Ocean Air Elementary School. “One thing I miss most about teaching is the kids, and this is a wonderful way to keep working with kids.” Launched in 1995, the docent program is funded by San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the conservation, interpretation and public enjoyment of San Elijo Lagoon. Docents lead walks for children on field trips during the school week and for members of the public on weekends and summer evenings. More than 3,800 people visited San Elijo Lagoon last year for docent-led field trips and nature walks. “Kids learn about the wetlands in the classroom and we get to show them the wetlands,” said Sharpe, who noted that the organization’s school programs are science-based and grade- and subjectspecific. “We’re the hands-on part of the curriculum.” Although she walked through the reserve before, Sharpe said she was unfamiliar with the ecology and history of the reserve until she participated in the eight-week docent-training program two years ago. From fiddler crabs that wave oversized claws to attract mates, to trapdoor spiders that construct burrows to catch prey, Sharpe said she enjoys learning about the reserve as much as she enjoys teaching others about the reserve. “You get all the knowledge that you need, and everybody is so welcoming and so helpful,” said Sharpe, who continues to learn about the reserve by studying the docent manual and attending monthly meetings. “It’s a wonderful training program.” San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy is currently expanding its education program and looking for

BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although she was only 39 years old and breast cancer didn’t run in her family, Laurie Lovell decided to perform a breast self-exam one evening in April while lying in bed. She found a lump. A needle biopsy later confirmed the lump was breast cancer, and a magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, detected a second tumor. Lovell had a double mastectomy and is now undergoing chemotherapy. “My doctor literally told me I saved my life,” said Lovell, now 40. “Now that I’m going through my experience, I feel that women should be tested earlier than 40 because more and more younger women are getting breast cancer now. I also feel it’s so important for women to request and push for a breast MRI. If they wouldn’t have done the MRI, they would have just done a lumpectomy on the one tumor and I would have never known.” In a breast cancer seminar dedicated to Lovell, radiologist Dr. Richard Reitherman, surgeon Dr. Michele Carpenter, surgeon Dr. Jane Kakkis and genetic counselor Sandra Brown will speak about early detection and the recurrence of breast cancer Sept 18 at St. Therese of Carmel Catholic Church in Carmel Valley. “I dedicated the event to Laurie because she signifies a person who is too young to qualify for a mammogram, who thankfully took the initiative to do a breast exam, discovered her breast cancer herself and also got a breast MRI, which saved her life,” said Carmel Valley resident Lynn Flanagan, a breast cancer survivor for more than 16 years. Flanagan’s breast cancer support group, Linked by Lynn, is sponsoring the event. “I’m a passionate advocate for anybody diagnosed with breast cancer,” Flanagan said. “I encourage them to be proactive about their disease. I want them to understand exactly what’s going on and get the best appropriately aggressive treatment combined with the most knowledgeable breast cancer medical team.” Like Lovell’s second tumor, many breast cancers do not show up on a mammogram. Breast density can make a developing cancer hard to detect and also increase a woman’s risk. Gov. Jerry Brown in 2012 signed a law that requires health care facilities to notify women categorized as having dense breast tissue about their condition. The law, which went into effect this year, is designed to improve breast cancer detection and prevention by educating patients about dense breast tissue and how it could conceal possible abnormalities during mammographic procedures. Reitherman, the keynote speaker, will discuss the law and present a new method of evaluating a woman’s breast cancer risk as well as outline appropriate surveillance methods, even in young women.

Laurie Lovell with her husband Paul Lovell “I think that all of this knowledge is publicly available, but to have an option to ask questions and interact is very beneficial,” said Reitherman, who has been a radiologist for 25 years. “This knowledge could save their life or somebody else’s life. It’s life-saving information.” Brown, manager of the Cancer Genetics Program at St. Joseph Hospital and Mission Hospital in Orange, Calif., will talk about the differences in occurrences of cancers, including a sporadic event, a moderate risk and an inherited risk. “A lot of times women feel very threatened, fatalistic, about their family history, which sometimes leads to really inappropriate coping mechanisms. Sometimes women don’t want to do a mammogram because of their family history. It’s kind of a denial mechanism,” Brown said. “Genetic counseling is actually an empowering process. We can do something about it.” Aside from non-melanoma skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, according to

the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2009, 211,731 women in the U.S. were diagnosed with breast cancer, and 40,676 died from the disease, according to the CDC. “Every woman who lives long enough in the United States is going to be faced with breast cancer, whether it’s their relative,

Lynn Flanagan and Laurie Lovell friend or themselves,” Carpenter said. “The more information you have and the more you know about it, the more powerful it is in being able to help direct your own healthcare.” The presentations will begin at 7 p.m. followed by a question and answer session with the speakers Sept 18 at St. Therese of Carmel Catholic Church, 4355 Del Mar Trails Road, San Diego. All are welcome to attend the event. “Knowing this information could truly save your life,” Lovell said. “I really hope people understand that just by looking at me. I’m an example of it.”

Visual upgrade created by Highway 101 Westside Improvement Project draws more people to Solana Beach

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY DIANE Y. WELCH If you stroll down the west side of Highway 101 in Solana Beach, a marked change in pedestrian activity is apparent. There are a lot more people enjoying what the city calls the “Highway 101 Westside Improvement Project.” For pedestrians it’s an uplifting visual change in the ambiance of a busy corridor that now has multi-textured mosaics, sculptural elements and resting places that harmonize with colorful succulents and plantings. The project is almost three-fourths of a mile long, extending parallel to the Coastal Rail Trail from Dahlia Dr. in the south to Cliff St. in the north. It has been a collaborative effort that includes Parterre Landscape Architecture, Nasland Engineering, concrete contractor T.B. Penick & Sons, Inc., artist Christie Beniston and general contractor Dick Miller, Inc. Five goals were agreed on — that came from city and community workshops — which included traffic calming, more parking, improved aesthetics, pedestrian-friendly walkways, and connections to Cedros Ave., the Coastal Rail Trail and the train station, said Pat O’Connor, owner of Parterre Landscape Architecture. A design concept that reflected the healthy lifestyle of the community — with a beach theme — was realized early on. “Then the challenge for us was how to transform this long narrow and fragmented streetscape and give it a contiguous sense,” said O’Connor. To create this continuity a series of 10 signature places were designed. There were four major sites chosen because of the public right of way, larger spaces which would allow for people to congregate. “Then Christie contributed her artistry to the image and the design of these places,” said O’Connor. One of the sites is named “Ocean Place.” It has multicolored and textured paving and is directly north of Pizza Port across from the train station. The center piece is a water feature sculpture that represents the five layers of the ocean

identified by a variety of sea life. “From tuna to an octopus, to exotic deep fish found at 4,000 meters,” explained O’Connor. A second site is “Star Plaza,” located just south of Plaza Street in front of the Solana Beach Executive Building. Here the mosaic is embedded with marble, glass and ceramic pieces representing the alignment of the five northern circumpolar constellations visible on the day Solana Beach was incorporated as a city in 1986.

“Sunburst,” located in front of Beach Grass Café, has a seating area with a brilliantly hued sun mosaic made from glass tile, designed by Beniston and fabricated by Amanda Conahan. “Seat Walls,” located in front of Tidewater, is also a seating area with two seat wall benches, titled “Currents” that have an inset flowing across the top and sides revealing a glass mosaic that highlights individual crystals, polished minerals and gems, agate slices, fossils, and petrified wood. “The mosaic provides an opportunity for discovery of these beautiful natural treasures,” said Beniston, who found the project especially rewarding, “as it’s in my own backyard.” Much of Beniston’s mosaic is created through a trademarked process called Lithocrete Litho Mosaic, invented by Shaw and Son. T.B. Penick & Sons are one of only a few licensed installers in the U.S. “The process allows the artist to do the work in the studio, rather than at the site, and the mosaic may be checked and changed if needed, before it is set permanently into the wet concrete,” said Chris Klemaske, project developer for T. D. Penick who created the decorative concrete walls, hardscape and seating areas. “It’s been an exciting process to take this project from an idea, then put it in concrete and express it,” said Klemaske, adding that it was a privilege to work with a team who collaborated so well. A number of smaller gathering places that will, over time, become more significant, are designated as future permanent and temporary art sites. These sites will provide additional opportunity to enhance the overall aesthetic experience of strolling down the coastal highway. “The experience of Highway 101 has completely changed. People are stopping and sitting, and enjoying the street,” Klemaske said.

Petco Park’s Club 19 has the bases loaded! BY KELLEY CARLSON teps away from the baseball diamond in Petco Park is a hidden gem of a restaurant that is dedicated to one of the Padres’ legendary players. Club 19, which pays homage to Tony “Mr. Padre” Gwynn, is “off the beaten path,” as described by the park’s executive chef, Will Todd. It’s between sections 213 and 215 on the Toyota Terrace, identified by a white neon sign and silhouettes of ball players on the windows. Inside is a cozy and intimate lounge — a relaxed way to enjoy the game, which is shown on monitors around the restaurant. Some patrons perch on stools at the glowing blue bar; others settle onto couches or in booths around the dining room. There are also several tables on the open-air terrace, which provides views of downtown San Diego. Many guests take the time to gaze at the Gwynn memorabilia around the room, from awards and jerseys to photos and inspirational quotes. Gwynn, whose jersey No. 19 was retired by the San Diego Padres in 2004, spent his entire 20-year career with the team and won eight batting titles, tied for the second-most in Major League Baseball history. He is also a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame and a 15-time All-Star. While energizing music and crowd cheers from the stadium can be overheard during a game, the restaurant itself is relatively quiet and relaxed, yet still casual.

■ This week’s recipe:

Club 19’s Bullpen Strikeout Sauce “It’s never too rowdy,” Todd said. It’s often family-oriented during the day, he noted; the bar crowd tends to come in around the fifth inning to take advantage of special $5 snacks. As for the food, it’s not your typical ballpark fare. Mainly, it consists of small American-style plates, and incorporates produce grown in the bullpen’s garden. The signature dish is the Lollipop Chicken (wings covered in classic spicy buffalo and green chile sauces) with a side of carrot and celery slaw combined with bleu cheese, a variation on the standard vegetables sticks. Other offerings include the Baja-style ceviche, a combination of shrimp, mahi

mahi, avocado, cilantro and lime that has a slight kick to it; the Sirloin Tips with potatoes, covered in a crimini mushroom demi sauce, caramelized onions and arugula; and, of course, Tony’s Tenders with a side of mac and cheese, created from a recipe by Gwynn’s wife, Alicia. Dishes can be paired with a variety of specialty cocktails, wines, beers and soft drinks. The “Lil’ Sluggers” menu features handbreaded chicken tenders with ranch dipping sauce and macaroni & cheese in a smoked cheddar sauce and bread crumbs, an organic PB&J sandwich with crusts removed (of course) and Sirloin Tips with potatoes and barbecue sauce. Each is served with grapes and apple juice. During idyllic weather, Todd recommends sitting on the terrace and starting with marinated olives and shrimp cocktail in a chili garlic sauce. For the main selection, order the Bases Loaded Burger, an 8-ounce, smoked cheddar-stuffed patty with bacon and sauteed mushrooms. Food is served through the seventh inning during weekdays and the end of the game on weekends; the bar is open until an hour after the game ends. Reservations are not needed at Club 19, guests are seated on a first-come, first served basis. Club 19 is accessible when there are fewer than 30,000 people at a game. However, patrons need a Toyota Terrace ticket when the crowd is larger.

Del Mar resident perseveres to give blue-blooded thoroughbred a second chance at life BY KELLEY CARLSON When Marla Zanelli first laid eyes on Adonis two years ago, it was love at first sight. “He was a very handsome horse,” she recalled when reflecting upon her initial meeting with the bay gelding. Little did the Del Mar resident know that one day, she would be rescuing him from what potentially could’ve been a sad fate. Officially named Adonis D N A, the blue-blooded thoroughbred — a son of the late stallion Unbridled’s Song and a Storm Cat mare — was a $90,000 purchase as a 2-year-old. He was initially placed under the care of Doug O’Neill, who is perhaps best known for conditioning I’ll Have Another, winner of the 2012 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, and California champion Lava Man. Adonis was still a youngster in O’Neill’s barn when Zanelli was introduced to him during a visit. At the time, she was part of the Great Friends Stables racing syndication, which had horses with the trainer, but they did not own Adonis. Enamored with Adonis, Zanelli followed his racing career through the Equibase Virtual Stable, a free service that notifies a person via e-mail when a particular horse of interest is entered to race, works out or finishes a race. After a dismal eighth-place finish in his first outing at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Adonis began to drop through the ranks, running in claiming races for lower and lower prices and transferring stables. According to Zanelli, he was running for about $12,000 earlier this year at Los Alamitos Race Course in Los Alamitos, but by May, he was entered in a race for a $2,500 price tag. “When he was running at Los Alamitos for $2,500, it broke my heart,” Zanelli said. “I called my connections and got the owner’s phone number. I asked him to give me the horse, he said no. They ran him a few more times and, in the meantime, through Dawn Mellen (president of After the Finish Line, an organization that helps saves and retrains former racehorses), I contacted Sarah P., who gallops horses at Los Al.” About a month ago, Sarah contacted Zanelli to let her know the owner was done with Adonis and that he may go to auction. In 17 starts, he had won three times, finished second twice and was third once. Zanelli was told that

Adonis had breathing issues and at one point had throat surgery to correct the problem, but it didn’t work as a permanent solution. According to Zanelli, the owner wanted $1,000 for the now 4-year-old thoroughbred, but Sarah negotiated $500 for her. Adonis was hers. While it was Zanelli’s first rescue, she is no stranger around equines. She showed horses as a child, and has been involved in racing for about 35 years. Zanelli used to exercise horses for Hall of Fame trainers such as D. Wayne Lukas, Bobby Frankel and Neil Drysdale; and has served as an assistant trainer. She also used to “pinhook” horses — the practice of buying horses, overseeing their breaking and training, and eventually re-selling them as race-ready 2-year-olds in training. After she bought Adonis, Zanelli — a real estate agent with Allison James Estates & Homes in Del Mar — took the horse to Valenti Estate Saddle Club in Rancho Santa Fe. She described it as “the Rancho Valencia of horse stables,” comparing it to the local luxurious five-star resort. Zanelli then called on her longtime friends Dallas and Donna Keen for help with Adonis’ transition into his new lifestyle.

The Keens came to Valenti for a day to work with Adonis. “He’s a very smart, very kind horse,” Dallas Keen said. “He was very attentive, and acted like he wanted to learn.” Keen desensitized Adonis by running a blue tarp over his body and then had him walk on it. A Western saddle was then placed on the horse, and eventually Keen rode him in the round pen. “It was about teaching him something different ... getting him used to other stuff (that he didn’t normally see at the racetrack),” Keen said. “A lot of horses have bad memories when they come off the racetrack,” he added. “It’s a myth that horses are not easy to retrain when they come off the track. ... There’s a lot of neat stuff that they can do. Once they start learning a new profession, they really take to it.” Zanelli said Adonis has adapted to his new lifestyle “amazingly fast.” “He is so relaxed, I almost jumped on him bareback today in his paddock and may do so tomorrow!” she said last week. As for Adonis’ future, “we’ll see what he wants to do ... dressage, a good trail horse,” Zanelli said. “I’d love to show him in OTTB (Off-Track Thoroughbred) shows.”

Pando Health Groups announces new holistic fitness and group classes Pando Health Groups, located in Solana Beach on Cedros, recently announced its September lineup of one-of-a-kind movement, meditation and group classes providing patients holistic practices for measurable and improved health in ailments including dementia, anxiety, blood sugar, high blood pressure and insomnia, just to name a few. Studies have shown participating in movement, meditation and group discussion classes result in improved health.

They offer their patients a team of traditional and non-traditional medical professionals and health practitioners who work together to assist people in their path to empowerment and healing. The goal is to provide support and education with attention-filled individual medical visits with one-onone’s, holistic health and restorative exercise classes that many don’t get at their quick, 15-minute check-ups. For a list of fall classes and specific information about the classes, as well as more information about Pando Health Groups, please visit www.pandohealthgroups.com.

Canyon Crest Academy Foundation begins fundraising drive in honor of school’s 10th anniversary BY KAREN BILLING The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation’s fundraising drive is more important than ever this year as the accomplished school will be celebrating its 10th anniversary this spring. CCA’s humble beginnings date back to 2004 when 364 students started in 19 trailers in a parking lot. Now CCA is a campus of about 1,800 students enjoying a full range of academic, art and athletic options made possible by the foundation, which, since its inception in 2004, has raised more than $6 million. “The foundation is a beautiful collaboration of public and private entities, working together to make an outstanding educational institution,” said Anna Lillian, president of the foundation. The foundation’s goals this year are to raise $900,000; increase donor participation; and create an awareness and excitement in the community about the school. According to Joanne Couvrette, in her third year as executive director of the foundation, there is some misconception about the amount of money the school district actually receives from the state. She said the average revenue for California high school districts is $9,449 per student; over $1,000 more per student than the San Dieguito Union High School District receives. The district’s budget crunching makes the foundation’s role that much more important, she said. “What we’re doing is filling the gap and providing additional services the district can’t provide anymore,” Couvrette said. Couvrette added that

they would love to see new donors this year and participation from more school families. “About 50 percent of our families donate now which is great but we hope to improve on that, especially because it’s our 10th anniversary,” Couvrette said, noting they always strive for 100 percent participation. The foundation supports so many things at the school that it’s difficult to list them all, Lillian said, save to say that their funds “touch every student every day.” The foundation pays for computers in classrooms; enrichment Envision day classes; the salary for the director of the career and college resource center; even graduation — the foundation is in charge of renting the stage, chairs and printing the diplomas. The foundation also funds the Quest program, allowing young scientists to gain real-world experience and the school’s seven Conservatory programs, including advanced learning in cinema, dance, fine arts, instrumental music, vocal music, theater, and the new humanities Conservatory program this year, which focuses on mastery of research methodology and study of theology, civics, ethics and philosophy. “The biggest chunk of what the foundation pays for is athletics,” Lillian said. The school now has 21 different sports teams ranging from volleyball to roller hockey —since 2004 the school has been filling up its gym with league and CIF championship banners. “It’s just amazing what the school offers for the students, the opportunities are immeasurable,” Lillian said. “It takes quite a bit of mon-

ey to fund all of those programs and if parents didn’t pay for them, they wouldn’t exist.” The foundation’s board is made up of 24 volunteer members, led by Lillian. They’ve added new positions this year to focus on sponsorships and business development, finding ways to creatively earn income. Some of those creative income generators are selling Spirit Wear and eScrip in which a percentage of sales from local merchants go back to the school. They aim to partner more with local businesses, as Lillian says they can benefit from having a world-class school in their neighborhood. The foundation also benefits from a weekly Farmer’s Market held on Thursdays in the CCA parking lot from 2:30 p.m. to sunset. Farmer’s Market manager Raquel Pena has introduced unique vendors, movie nights and musical performances from talented locals, including CCA students. There will be new vendors and food trucks for fall, including the Mastiff Sausage Company food truck serving up craft foods such as coconut curry chicken sausage with sautéed red bell peppers and candied cashews. “We want to make it a venue that people want to go to on Thursday nights,” Lillian said, noting it’s become a place where locals can pick up produce for the week, but also eat dinner and bring along the entire family. In not even a full year last year, the market brought in $11,000 — Lillian said they’re aiming for $15,000 this year “It’s bringing communiSee FOUNDATION, page B26

CCA student tracks asteroid at prestigious science program Carmel Valley youth named local ALS Natalie Nicolas, 16, a resident of Carmel Valley and a senior at Canyon Crest Academy, completed the MIT/CalTech-sponsored Summer Science Program (SSP) this summer.

Megan Spector was walking along Mission Bay last fall at age 12 with 1,600 other walkers as part of the Greater San Diego Chapter of the ALS Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Walk to Defeat ALS. It was Meganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third time doing the ALS Walk, along with her parents and brother, Sheri, Steven and Cole Spector. Megan and her family were walking in honor of her aunt, Marjie Block, who has waged a four-year battle with ALS. But Megan was having other ideas to do something more for her aunt and her battle with ALS. Having sang and acted on stage since she was 5 years old, Megan started dreaming of a musical performance that would honor her aunt Marjie and raise awareness and funding for ALS. Megan brought her dream to life by creating and headlining in a musical concert titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Striking a Chord, a Benefit Concert to Help Beat ALS.â&#x20AC;? Megan helped develop the concert program, secure other artists and event sponsors, and sell more than 450 tickets to fill the Irwin M. Jacobs QualcommHall on Feb.

Megan Spector 11. Striking a Chord was a major success and, together with a related silent auction and raffle, raised over $34,000 for the ALS Association. Along the way Megan overcame a few other challenges. Two weeks prior to the event, Megan came down with a bad case of the flu and bronchitis, and was only cleared to sing by her doctor 48 hours prior to the event. Executive Director of the San Diego ALS Chapter Tom Courtney said about Megan, â&#x20AC;&#x153;All that Megan has achieved would be impressive at any age, and when you consider that she is 12

years old and coming off the flu and the normal pressures of school, it is quite the remarkable achievement. We are thrilled that Megan is our â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Volunteer of the Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for our Greater San Diego Chapter.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This event would not have been possible without the great volunteers from the ALS Association, Jason Chase (the musical director), Pat Launer (the mistress of ceremonies), the amazing performers that joined me, my family and friends, and the support from the San Diego community,â&#x20AC;? said now 13-year-old Megan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look forward to the day when my aunt and others with ALS will defeat this cruel disease.â&#x20AC;? Megan will be honored at the Combined Health Agencies Volunteer of the Year Award ceremony on Thursday, Sept. 12, at the Hall of Champions in Balboa Park. Megan will also sing the National Anthem at this Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Walk to Defeat ALS set for Sunday, Oct. 20, at Mission Bay Park.

Author of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Mr. Ruehle, You Are a Free Man: A Broadcom Sagaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to speak at RSF Library Sept. 19 BY JOE TASH Bill Ruehle spent years working to clear his name after being accused of misleading investors in a high-profile securities fraud case involving his one-time employer, the semiconductor manufacturer Broadcom. The book he has written about his legal odyssey was intended to do two things, according to the 71-year-old North County resident: allow him to tell his side of the story for the first time, and also serve as a cautionary tale about the abuse of government power in the hands of prosecutors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Be aware,â&#x20AC;? said Ruehle in an interview. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Never assume that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re invulnerable.â&#x20AC;? Ruehle will give a talk about his self-published book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mr. Ruehle, You Are a Free Man: A Broadcom Saga,â&#x20AC;? on Sept. 19 at the Rancho Santa Fe Library. The event will be held at the library, 17040 Avenida de Acacias, Rancho Santa Fe, 92067, from 6 to 8 p.m. The event will include cocktails and hors dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;oeuvres, the author presentation, a question and answer session, and a signed copy of the book. Tickets cost $40. For more information, call (858) 756-2512. Ruehle joined Broadcom in 1997, when the company was still private, and had revenue of about $20 million per year and 150 employees. By 2006, he had become chief financial officer, when allegations arose that the company had misled investors by backdating stock options for company employees. He was indicted in 2008. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something you never imagine and it turns your world upside down,â&#x20AC;? Ruehle said. The website Investopedia defines backdating as â&#x20AC;&#x153;the process of granting an option that is dated prior to the date that the company granted that option. In this way, the exercise price of the granted option can be set at a lower price than that of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stock at the granting date.â&#x20AC;? Critics of the practice contend it allows company employees to buy their stock at a lower price than its value on the date when the option is granted, so they can make a profit by selling the stock at the subsequent, higher price. Ruehle said the charges against him and his fellow executives stemmed from allegations they were understating expenses, and overstating profits, through the backdating scheme. However, Ruehle said, the charges were totally unfounded. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My position is we never did the backdating we were accused of,â&#x20AC;? said Ruehle.

Bill Ruehle Ruehleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trial was held in late 2009 in Santa Ana before U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney. According to news accounts of the trial, Carney dismissed the case against Ruehle and his codefendant, Broadcom cofounder Henry T. Nicholas III, in December of that year. In dismissing the case before it went to the jury, the judge noted misconduct by a prosecutor, who allegedly tried to intimidate witnesses and defendants. More significantly, said Ruehle, the judge also ruled there was not enough evidence to give the case to the jury. The judgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision is equivalent to an acquittal on the charges, which cannot be brought again because of the Constitutional prohibition against double jeopardy. Ruehle said it was devastating to be charged with securities fraud after a long business career in which he had been the person that others relied on to provide the truth. He passed on offers of plea bargains, opting to fight to clear his name. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was determined not to let the government take my life away,â&#x20AC;? he said. The odds were against him from the start, Ruehle said, because less than 1 percent of people indicted for â&#x20AC;&#x153;white collarâ&#x20AC;? crimes are ultimately acquitted. As to his decision to write the book, he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I See AUTHOR, page B26

Lucky Duck Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Swing & Soiree to raise funds for local charities BY KRISTINA HOUCK While some fundraisers raise money for one charity, Lucky Duck Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Swing & Soiree benefits four organizations. Attendees at the fifth annual event â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a golf tournament and dinner party Sept. 30 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; will help the homeless, fight against disease, support challenged athletes and save animals.

Now called Swing & Soiree, the annual event is open to the pubic and benefits the Fanconi Anemia Research Fund, Father Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Villages, the Challenged Athletes Foundation and the Helen Woodward Animal Center. Pat and Stephanie Kilkenny, the founders of the Lucky Duck Foundation, match every penny raised. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve both been so fortunate in our lives with friends, family and finances, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always given back,â&#x20AC;? said foundation CEO Stephanie Kilkenny. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The foundation and Swing & Soiree is a way to help other people get involved in all of those efforts, making it fun and doubling the amount of money we give.â&#x20AC;?

Local student headed for UCI Mountain Bike World Championships Luca Cometti, a senior at The Grauer School in Encinitas, has been selected to represent the United States at the 2013 Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Mountain Bike Championships held in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, from Aug. 26 through Sept. 1. Luca will be competing in the Juniors Downhill Competition time trials where each rider is challenged to maneuver around obstacles such as tree roots, bumps, and banked sections. The World Championship is organized by nationality instead of by commercial teams and only six professional riders and six junior riders were selected to represent the United States. Luca received a message from Marc Gullickson, USA Cycling Mountain Bike & Cyclo-Cross program director, congratulating him for being selected to represent the United States as part of the 2013 Mountain Bike and Trials World Championship Team. Luca looks forward to representing America in a sport and states, “It means a lot to see that all of my hard work spent training and practicing has paid off.” The USA Cycling Association selected Luca based on his performance at the US Championship and the World Cup. Luca recently placed 9th (second place against other US riders) in the World Cup race. This is the first year Luca has been selected to represent the United States. Ever since watching his first biking video, Luca was intrigued by the energy and excitement of the race and has dreamed of competing in the World Championships. Luca is most looking forward to the unique opportunity to ride his bike in Africa. “I am also excited to ride and practice with all of my favorite riders of all time,” Luca said. Luca competes regularly for the Nema/Nukeproof bike team and is also sponsored by iMountain Bike and Deflexion. Luca sees a Top 10 finish as a reasonable goal for himself at the competition and humbly asserts, “Even if I come in last place, I’m sure it will be a race I never forget.” Grauer School Principal Dana Abplanalp-Diggs said, “Luca exemplifies the diverse and unique talent pool of our student body. Our small schools model enables us to support independent endeavors like this, campus wide.” The Grauer School, founded in 1991, is a grades 6-12 private, college preparatory school located in Encinitas.

San Diego Jewish Academy student/Google International Science Fair winner ‘jams’ in Switzerland San Diego Jewish Academy student and 2012 Google International Science Fair winner Jonah Kohn has had quite a year. After winning at Google in the 13-14 age category, Kohn, and a few select others from around the country, received an invitation to present his project at the White House. As if that wasn’t enough, as part of his Google prize, which included a $25,000 scholarship, Kohn won a week as an international particle physicist, shadowing CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) physicist Verena Martinez Outschoorn for two days at Fermilab (Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory – a US Department of Energy national laboratory specializing in high-energy particle physics.) in the U.S., and three days at CERN in Switzerland (The European Organization for Nuclear Research, or CERN, is an international organization whose purpose is to operate the world’s largest particle physics laboratory). During his tour of Fermilab, Kohn was introduced to the basics of particle physics. While in Switzerland, Jonah visited numerous experimental areas around CERN including ALICE, ATLAS, and CMS — three of the seven particle experiments constructed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) — a particle accelerator at CERN. However, it was in the underground CMS cavern where Jonah experienced something he could not have anticipated. Jonah met a number of physicists with connections

to music, including those scheduled to appear at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Jonah’s connection to music just happens to coincide with his connection to science. “One day, a friend and I were trying to play the guitar in a class room,” says Kohn. “But it was so noisy that we couldn’t hear anything! We figured out that if you put your teeth on the head of the guitar, you can hear it through the vibrations.” Kohn’s project — Good Vibrations: Improving the music experience for people with hearing loss using multi-frequency tactile sound – started from there. Kohn attempted to provide people with hearing loss with an improved experience of music by creating a device that converts sound into tactile vibrations. Jonah’s “musical” project inspired some of the physicists. You may think a cavern deep underground and containing one of the largest particle detectors in the world would be a strange place for a jam session, but physicist Piotr Traczyk thought it was the perfect location, which is why he spent an afternoon rocking out in the CMS cavern with Jonah. Click here to watch them play. “Being here (in Switzerland) was very interesting, I learned a lot. I’ve seen a lot of things and quite a few I didn’t even know about,” he says. “I think the best part for me was in the CMS cavern… They had me playing the guitar with one of the physicists! That’s definitely something memorable.” Although he doesn’t know yet what he wants to study later, Jonah shows great interest in neuroscience and engineering and is continuing his education at San Diego Jewish Academy.

De Anza DAR announces American History essay contest The De Anza Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution will be holding the annual American History Essay Contest for the 2013-2014 academic year. All fifth through eighth grade students in public, private, parochial, school or those who are home schooled are eligible to participate. This year’s topic spotlights the effect of the Revolution on youth with a topic of “The Lives of Children During the American Revolution.” Some may have followed their fathers into battle; others stayed home and assumed new responsibilities to ensure their families’

survival. The student essayists are invited to imagine themselves in the place of one of these children, either a historical child or a fictional child during the colonial fight for freedom. The top winner from each grade will receive a medal, a certificate, and a cash award from the De Anza Chapter, as well as the opportunity to advance in the state and national competition. A colonial tea and awards ceremony will be held to recognize the winning students, their teachers and principals. Essay submission deadline is Nov. 1. Schools and individuals

may contact the De Anza Chapter Regent Laurel Lemarie, 858-756-2835, for contest rules and a guide sheet. The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution founded in 1890 sponsors the yearly essay contest in conjunction with state and local chapters to carry out the injunction of Washington in his farewell address to the American people, “to promote, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge, thus developing an enlightened public opinion.” Visit www.deanzadar.org for membership information.

Conner’s Cause for Children’s 20th Anniversary Gala, ‘Stand-Up for Conner’s Cause, An Evening of Stand-Up Comedy,’to be held in October Conner’s Cause for Children 20th Annual Benefit Gala, “Stand-Up for Conner’s Cause, An Evening of Stand-Up Comedy” will be held at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 19, at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. Proceeds from this event will benefit Conner’s Cause for Children, the only non-profit organization in the San Diego region that offers direct family assistance for out-of-pocket expenses relating to any and all life-threatening illnesses associated with children. Celebrating its 20- year anniversary, Conner’s Cause for Children presents an evening of stand-up comedy featuring professional comics from the Southern California area. The event also includes cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, silent auction, and dinner. Tickets to the gala are $115 per person, Early bird

tickets are $100 before Sept. 30. Accepting auction donations. Sponsorship opportunities available. For more information, contact Karen Gliner (619) 540-1650 or visit www. connerscause.org. One of the families Conner’s Cause for Children assists is Sissy’s. Sissy is a 9-year-old girl with a rare, severe form of autism affecting only girls called Rhett’s Syndrome. In addition to her developmental delays, she suffers from seizures and a number of other serious physical and medical challenges and needs constant care. She has three teenage sisters also living at home. One of them also suffers from developmental and physical challenges as a result of a car accident a few years ago. Sissy’s mother, Jenny, receives some income as a caregiver for Sissy and her disabled older sister, but it is barely enough to cover the monthly household expenses for this family. When Sissy’s seizures landed her in the hospital last month, Jenny fell further behind in her bills and faced a pile of past due notices when she brought Sissy home. Conner’s Cause for Children paid this family’s past due utility and water bills and sent them some gift cards to buy new summer clothes and medical supplies for Sissy.

Press for success with the local Panini Queen The Kitchen Shrink

BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN After graduating with an M.B.A. from Stanford, Northern California-born Kathy Strahs has gone on to earn her culinary stripes in the art of Panini-making. In her new book, “The Ultimate Panini Press Cookbook,” (Harvard Common Press), Kathy will help you navigate your way through panini paradise to get the best and most out of this kitschy concept. The grilled sandwich veteran, who has been waxing panini poetic since 2008 in her high profile blog, “Panini Happy,” told me, “my goal is to inspire people to take the panini press, that was given to them as a wedding or Christmas present out of the closet and start to have some fun with it.” And that includes whipping up some of the 205 innovative creations featured in her book — from savories like Grilled Shrimp Tostadas with mashed black beans and avocado salsa fresca and Potato Knishes stuffed with chorizo sausage, cheddar cheese and dried apples to sweets like waffle ice cream cones and Grilled Pears with honey whipped Greek Yogurt. Strahs, a self-taught panini artist, has been embracing the grill since the birth of her first child five years ago, when they weren’t eating out as much. Like her love of knitting, sewing, wood and metalworking, she considers Panini-making a form of artistic expression. This mother-of-two’s faves are the soppressata manchego and honey (Italian dry salami with spicy Spanish cheese) that blends sweet, salty and a little heat, and finishing off with some just desserts such as an apple pie panini that smothers thinly sliced grilled apples with honey whipped mas-

carpone cheese, cinnamon sugar butter and a dense slice of rustic white bakery bread. She also promotes the appliance as a double-duty indoor grill for whipping up simple, healthful and elegant dishes — everything from killer French toast with deep ridges for syrup to succulent lamb Author Kathy Strahs chops, and perfect chicken breasts, burgers and steaks, crisp on the outside, tender, juicy with warm centers on the inside. Along with acquiring her “Panini Bible,” Strahs recommends other essential cook’s tools for aspiring paniniphiles. These include an electric panini press (Breville has a full line up of panini grills at all price ranges, while the Cuisinart Griddler is a solid, reasonably priced choice), an OXO silicone panini brush that doesn’t damage the grill surface, silicone tongs, spatula, a meat thermometer when grilling beef and chicken, and a cheese slicer to ensure uniform melting. To see Kathy Strahs in action (and buy a signed copy of her cookbook, visit Flower Hill Promenade, Del Mar: • 6-8 p.m. Tuesday Sept. 10 at Whole Foods Market for a mingle-and-munch gathering, sampling treats from the book and local craft beer. • 6-7:30 p.m. Wednesday Sept. 25 at Venissimo Cheese (lower level) for a panini party and cooking class with food and wine tastings ($25 per person).

Grilled Pears with Honey-Whipped Greek Yogurt and Toasted Almonds From “The Ultimate Panini Press Cookbook,” by Kathy Strahs (reprinted with permission) Ingredients 1 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt 2 tablespoons honey, plus more for drizzling 1⁄2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1⁄4 cup blanched whole almonds 4 ripe pears, such as D’Anjou or Bosc 1 tablespoon butter, melted Directions Whip the yogurt, honey and vanilla in a blender or mini food processor, or with an electric mixer, until it’s creamy, smooth and shiny, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl, cover and refrigerate while you prepare the other ingredients. Heat the oven or toaster oven to 350°F. Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and bake until they’re fragrant, about 5 minutes. Keep your eye on them so that they don’t burn! Heat the panini press to high. Halve each pear lengthwise and remove the core (an easy way is to scoop out the core with a teaspoon). Brush a little melted butter on the cut sides. In batches, place the pear halves, cut sides down, on the grill and close the lid so that it rests gently on top of the pears. Grill until dark grill marks appear and you can smell the aroma of burnt caramel, about 3 minutes. Transfer the pear halves, cut sides up, to individual bowls or martini glasses. Top with a few dollops of the honey-whipped yogurt, sprinkle on a few toasted almonds, and drizzle with honey. Yield: 4 servings. — For additional recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

International Bipolar Foundation’s next lecture to feature topic ‘Circadian Clocks in Bipolar On Sept. 12, the International Bipolar Foundation will hold its free mental health lecture series with guest Dr. Michael McCarthy on “Circadian Clocks in Bipolar Disorder.” Dr. McCarthy’s research career is focused on translational neuroscience and genetics, with an emphasis on Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), and Bipolar Disorder (BD). He is specifically interested in establishing the functional significance of genetic variants associated with BD that have been identified through genomic approaches, especially those identified within the circadian clock system (“clock genes”). The circadian clock gene circuitry is particularly well described and corresponds to wellestablished animal models and behavioral phenotypes, making this system particularly tractable as a platform for research in psychiatric genetics. Similarly, lithium response is associated with behavioral changes, biochemical processes and gene expression signatures that in many instances are more reliably measured than phenotypes associated with BD itself. Hence, by focusing on the intersection of these, Dr. McCarthy hopes to establish more specifically the molecular mechanisms underlying mood disorders like BD. The event will be held at Janssen R&D, LLC, 3210 Merryfield Row San Diego, CA 92121. Doors open at 5:45 p.m. Lecture begins promptly at 6 p.m. R.S.V.P required: ajacobs@ InternationalBipolarFoundation.org. Event and parking are free. For more information, visit www.InternationalBipolarFoundation.org.

‘Best Friends’ calendar photo fundraiser is Sept. 30 There are only 33 days left to submit snapshots to the Escondido Humane Society’s Best Friends Calendar Photo Fundraiser. The tax-deductible entry donation of $25 supports animal rehabilitation and adoption programs at the Escondido Humane Society, so every entry means a happier life for a pet still waiting to become someone’s special pinup star. Eleven winning photographs will appear as the famous Pets of the Month, and the first 50 entries that meet contest guidelines will be featured in the calendar’s Community Collage. Every completed entry receives a complimentary high-quality calendar. The regular suggested donation is $20 per calendar. Anyone can submit their favorite snapshot, but photos must contain only animals (no people), and copyrighted photographs are not accepted. High-resolution, horizontal-layout photos are preferred. Entry forms can be downloaded at www.escondidohumanesociety.org or picked up at the shelter, 3450 E. Valley Parkway. Completed entry forms and photos can be e-mailed to calendar@escondidohumanesociety.org. For more information, call (760) 888-2235.
