‘Feeding people and family’
Top performers to appear at ‘Passport to Africa’ event. A4
BY JARED WHITLOCK It’s an inescapable reality: El Niño stripped away a lot of sand from local beaches this winter, leaving chattering cobblestones in its wake. Wide beaches protect infrastructure and attract beachgoers. So it begs the question — how much sand was lost? And will it return? To find answers, a city of Encinitas employee and intern We saw the have been dragging a wagon shoreline recede a outfitted with GPS technology lot during months where there was a over Moonlight Beach and Cardiff State Beach. combination of Since October, they’ve tracked huge storms and changes in beach area, revealing high tides. how tides and waves affect sand Katherine Weldon, movement. Long term, city data shoreline preservation will help Encinitas determine manager when and where to conduct beach replenishments, which involve piping offshore or coastal lagoon sand onto beaches. Demonstrating how sand levels are recorded, intern Sean Lee recently pulled the survey wagon north along the water’s edge at Moonlight Beach, occasionally navigating around towels and curious beachgoers. He then dragged the wagon along the high tide mark, followed by three bisecting lines. Every half-second, survey equipment on the wagon plotted a GPS point. “With those GPS points, we can find out the exact coordinates, and then how the beach’s elevation is changing and the beach’s width,” Lee said, noting he’s out there SEE BEACHES, A16

Anne Heyligers at the St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church food pantry.
JARED WHITLOCK
Head of food pantry brings supermarket-style choice BY JARED WHITLOCK eople toting black carts eyed what was in stock and picked out fare like spinach, eggs and turkey. It sounds like a scene from a grocery store, except it’s actually a weekly food pantry for those in need at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Encinitas. Supermarket-style food pantries aim to cut waste, reduce any stigma associated with pantries and encourage interaction. The local pantry was an early adopter of the concept, an example of the passion and vision of Anne Heyligers, who heads the program. "It’s a big deal to these families to have fresh food that their kids enjoy," Heyligers said. She added it’s better than handing out pre-packed bags of food, some of which people may not need or want. The pantry provides groceries to 60 to 80 families — primarily the food insecure and homeless — from 3-4 p.m. every Thursday at St. Andrew’s. Volunteers place food on tables, and like a mini-grocery store, there’s a section for produce, dairy, canned goods and baked items. Heyligers began lending a hand at the pantry about nine years ago, back when volunteers distributed readymade bags that were heavy on canned goods. "A woman told me she was grateful, but

asked, ‘How many jars of peanut butter do I need?’ I thought there has to be a better way to do this." Not long after, due to people retiring, Heyligers stepped up to lead the program. Her first big goal was securing fresh fare, instead of relying primarily on locals’ food donations to St. Andrew’s. Today, the pantry notably receives fresh produce from the Leichtag Foundation property in Encinitas, as well as excess groceries from the store Haggen. The San Diego Food Bank is another major source of food. And rather than pack bags of food, Heyligers realized it was a lot easier to set it out on tables. Plus, the setup is conducive toward conversation. "Because they walk from table to table, there’s more interaction. Now after all these years, we know their names, their kids’ SEE PANTRY, A19

Neighbors sue over small home addition Hilltop owners argue project could block their ocean views BY BARBARA HENRY Worried that their distant views of the ocean may vanish, hilltop neighbors on the eastern edge of Old Encinitas are suing the city over its decision to issue permits allowing a tiny home below them to add a second story. City officials and council members say the project complies with all city regulations and that the modest home addition is appropriate for the surrounding neighborhood. The construction project — a 649-square-foot addition on an 860-square-foot duplex on Rosebay Drive — may be tiny, but its impact could be huge, said Everett DeLano, the attorney representing the recently formed Friends to Preserve Encinitas Beauty, which filed the suit. Not only does the project have the potential to restrict the ocean views of several uphill homeowners and nearby public trails, DeLano said, it also may be the start of a wave of second-story additions that sweep through the Pacific Serena neighborhood — a community of dozens of single-story duplexes north of Encinitas Boulevard and east of Quail Gardens Drive. “This is where it’s not a small matter,” he said. The lawsuit, filed in Superior Court March 17, argues that the city has violated its ordinances and guidelines by approving design review and coastal development permits without adequately addressing the project’s impact to private and public coastal
view corridors. It seeks a temporary restraining order and ultimately a permanent injunction on the construction project “until lawful approval is obtained.” DeLano said he knows Encinitas doesn’t technically have a “view protection ordinance” like some coastal cities do, but that the city’s design review permit process does mention that impacts on coastal views should be considered when reviewing construction permit requests. City officials strongly disagree that the project hasn’t been adequately reviewed. During a permit appeals hearing on the construction plans last month, City Council members repeatedly stressed that they felt the project clearly complied with city regulations and they disputed some of the view blockage allegations. “I can’t even comprehend how you could argue this project will block views from the (public) trails,” Councilwoman Lisa Shaffer, who lives near the area, told the opponents of the plan. Councilwoman Catherine Blakespear said it was a “relatively modest” project that fit well with the surrounding neighborhood and Mayor Kristin Gaspar said such projects are good for Encinitas. “I think this is exactly the type of project that is responsible, it’s respectful, it complies,” Gaspar said. “It’s actually what we should be encouraging. We want people to re-invest in their properties.”
Councilman Tony Kranz said he believed some uphill neighbors would lose part of their views, but said that’s something people have to live with. He’s experienced it himself when a neighboring property was developed, he said. The home’s owners — Gina Merchant and Derek Bradley — told the council that they only decided to add a second story after finding that there wasn’t much room on their lot to expand the first floor. They need the extra space because she’s pregnant with their first child, Merchant said. “I’d like to emphasize that we are looking to go from a modest two-bedroom, one-bath home to a modest three-bedroom, two-bath home,” she said, adding that she’ll be using one of the bedrooms as an office so she can work from home. And, she added, they’re only increasing the building height to 22 feet, though city ordinances would allow them to go up to 26 feet. Several of her neighbors told the council that Pacific Serena residents back the project, it’s the folks in the luxurious, two-story homes “with swimming pools” uphill in the Encinitas Ranch area east of Pacific Serena that oppose the plans. Those homes came later and they impacted the Pacific Serena folks’ views to the east when they were built, several residents said. Barbara Henry is a writer for the San Diego Union-Tribune
Encinitas participating in water conservation challenge BY JARED WHITLOCK Encinitas is once again taking part in the national Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation. Throughout April, residents can make water-saving promises at www.mywaterpledge.com. There, they can pledge to fix leaky faucets, put in low-water plants, take shorter showers and embrace other conservation measures. The contest has five population categories, and cities win by having the highest percentage of residents who make pledges. Residents in winning cities are entered into drawings for eco-friendly prizes, such as irrigation equipment and the grand prize, a 2016 Toyota Prius. As of April 11, Encinitas was in 10th place in the 30,000 to 99,999 population category. This is the fourth year Encinitas has participated in the challenge, but the city has yet to capture the top spot in its category. The contest has received quite a bit of attention in California due to the state’s ongoing drought and watering restrictions. Locally, residents are prohibited from watering their landscaping more than two days a week, for instance. Last year, residents from 3,900 cities across the country pledged to reduce water use by 1.5 billion gallons.

Mama’s Day event brings nourishment to those in need BY KAREN BILLING Mama’s Kitchen will host the original San Diego tasting event, the 25th annual Mama’s Day on Friday, May 6 at the Hyatt Regency La Jolla at Aventine. The fundraising event, held the Friday evening before Mother’s Day, features more than 55 chefs from San Diego’s finest restaurants, hotels and catering companies who graciously prepare delicious samples. Participating eateries this year include Snooze, Fig Tree Café, Saltbox, Solace and the Moonlight Lounge, Waypoint Public, Duke’s La Jolla, Hash House A Go Go, Cravory Cookies, Mia Francesca Del Mar, Betty’s Pie Whole, The Red Door and many more. The tasting event helps to raise critical funds for Mama’s Kitchen’s mission to deliver hot, nutrition-specific meals free of charge to local men, women, and children affected by AIDS or cancer. Last year, the event raised $176,000, which provided 57,680 home-delivered meals. Mama’s Kitchen’s mission, like some of the best recipes, is simple and uncomplicated. “These people end up with debilitating disease and in order to stay on a healthy path, it’s critical for them to be eating nutritious food,” said event co-chair Dana Black, a Rancho Santa Fe resident who serves on the board of directors at Mama’s Kitchen.

She decided to make a career change and went back to school at the University of San Diego (USD) to get her master’s degree in nonprofit leadership and management. After graduating in May 2014, she went into consulting. Black learned of Mama’s Kitchen while at USD — Mama’s Kitchen was a part of the “pracademia” program, where students essentially do pro-bono work for nonprofits in the community while in school. Black also served alongside Mama’s Kitchen’s executive director Alberto Cortés on the USD Institute for Nonprofit Education and Research advisory board. Cortés approached Black after she graduated knowing that in the past she had only served on advisory boards and was looking for a chance to serve on a governing board for a grassroots group. “Mama’s Kitchen has been in San Diego for 20 years but it is really community-based. Eight-hundred volunteers actively deliver meals every year and board members are very involved in the process, I felt like it fit with what I was looking for,” Black said. Mama’s Kitchen delivers three meals a day, seven days a week free of charge, even on holidays. Clients are referred to the organization by medical providers or caseworkers. “What always surprises me is the community need, that there are people that are struggling. We have a responsibility to make our community the best that it can be, which means reaching out to help,” Black said. “Everyone is entitled to the basic necessities of life.” When Mama’s Kitchen expanded its services to cancer patients, they found that while there were a lot of programs for seniors, there were not a lot of services for individuals under the age of 60. They serve a lot of women with breast cancer who are struggling to cook, work, go to chemotherapy and care for their children. While very active on the board, Black does deliver meals periodically and spent one Thanksgiving two years ago delivering meals with her then

The experience had a big impact on her son, who couldn’t believe the way some people had to live. It made an impact on Black too, when one woman with cancer was so happy just to have someone to talk to. They were feeding a different need as well. “You feel, in that moment, ‘I know I’m doing something good’. It’s amazing and the people are extremely thankful,” Black said. In 2015, Mama’s Kitchen delivered 284,925 meals to 394 San Diegans affected by HIV/AIDS; 70,602 meals to 196 San Diegans affected by cancer; and 46,584 meals to 106 children whose parents were affected by HIV/AIDS or cancer. On Wednesday, March 30, Mama’s Kitchen delivered its 8 millionth meal with the help of San Diego County Supervisor Ron Roberts. For over 25 years, Mama’s Kitchen has never turned anyone away who is eligible for services nor has it maintained a waiting list. General admission tickets are $150, VIP tickets are $250. The event begins at 6:30 p.m. for general admission and 5:30 p.m. for VIP. For tickets or more information, visit mamaskitchen.org.

Early that morning, the Solana Beach attorney’s 24-year-old son, Jimmy, was struck by a car and killed. The devastating loss carved a deep wound that will never heal, but the 66-year-old Gauntt said he now sees that, in some ways, Jimmy’s death was a gift. It strengthened Gauntt’s 43-year marriage with wife Hilary, and it deepened his spirituality. It also changed him from a man once walled off from his emotions into one who will go above and beyond to help others in the “club.” Gauntt is the co-founder of The Fraternity, a 3-year-old support group for North County dads who have lost children. He runs a website (writemesomethingbeautiful. com) filled with stories by parents, helpful advice and resources for those coping with loss. And he recently published a memoir on his journey back from the abyss. He and Hilary have also awarded more than $60,000 in scholarships in their son’s name at Torrey Pines High School, Jimmy’s alma mater. “Your life changes forever when you lose a child,” Gauntt said. “Our daughter Brittany said it best, that when Jimmy died, my heart wasn’t broken, it broke open. But that allowed a lot to come in. It led me to become more caring, more open with my feelings and more compassionate to others.” Because of a tragedy in his past, Gauntt said he wasn’t emotionally equipped to deal with the news that August morning when a woman from the county Medical Examiner’s Office

Casey Gauntt and his wife, Hilary, lost their son, Jimmy in 2008. Casey Gauntt turned his grief into a mission to support others.
GAUNTT FAMILY
Jimmy Gauntt was struck by a car and killed in 2008. He left no note for his family and Gauntt said his mother dealt with the tragedy by hushing it up and moving on. He felt abandoned, angry and incapable of processing the details of death. “I was never trained to deal with it. It made me horribly uncomfortable. I was so bad about it that when my dentist lost his 4-year-old son, my way of dealing with it was changing dentists,” Gauntt said. But after Jimmy died, his family began to feel his spiritual presence in dozens of unexpected ways: a familiar face on a passing stranger, a mysterious phone call, prophetic dreams, chance meetings and old photos and cards turning up on significant dates. Then in late 2008, Gauntt received a life-changing letter in the mail.
showed up on their doorstep. Jimmy, an aspiring screenwriter who lived in Los Angeles, was home for the weekend and had gone to visit a friend in Rancho Santa Fe the evening before. Rather than drive home after a few drinks, he decided to walk back on the dark, shoulderless Del Dios Highway. A young driver swerved to avoid him and overturned his car, accidentally striking Jimmy. Moments later, a second driver ran over Jimmy’s body and sped off. Gauntt said he went “deep into the tank” after his son’s death because he’d never learned to express his emotions. When Gauntt was a 20-year-old sophomore at the University of Southern California, his aloof and unemotional father committed suicide in his Chicago office.
3Sale Day
Del Mar & La Costa/Carlsbad
In 1968, Gauntt had spent a summer working construction at a West Virginia mining camp. His father wrote him a letter expressing for the first and only time his pride, love and hopes for his son’s future. But the letter was never delivered. Forty years later, an old acquaintance discovered the letter in a box of old camp paperwork and tracked Gauntt down. Gauntt said it was as if his father and his son were reaching out together, across four decades, to comfort him. “It arrived when I was in the darkest place and it hit me like an electric shock,” he said. “Right away, I knew it wasn’t just for me. I was supposed to share it.” He and his wife moved quickly to honor their son’s memory in a public way. On the morning of Jimmy’s death, the Gauntt family had planned a walk at the San Elijo Lagoon, so the following year they endowed a memorial bench along the trail. In 2009, they established the Jimmy Gauntt Memorial Scholarship at Torrey Pines High. And in 2010, they were honored to take part in the inaugural “Jimmy” awards at USC, which the English department established in his name to honor inspiring graduates like himself. Although Jimmy — with five plays and six screenplays to his credit — had been the writer in the family, Gauntt picked up the pen in his place. He first wrote the story of the letter, then other stories followed. In 2011, he launched the website to share his writing and the tributes, films and stories by other parents.

Menehune Surf to turn Sweet 16
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY ASHLEY MACKIN Celebrating its own “Sweet 16,” anniversary, the Menehune Surf Contest for children and teens returns to La Jolla Shores 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday May 7. But over the years, the contest has evolved to become more inclusive and do more to give back. The event now includes divisions for parents and adaptive surfing for challenged athletes, and participants who entered the contest when they were little groms (surf slang for children) are coming back as young adults to volunteer. The one-day judged event for surfers 18 years and under includes Longboard, Shortboard and Novice divisions, as well as the crowd-favorite “Super Menehunes” division for those 6 years old (non-judged). Heat times based on age will be published Friday before event, and the deadline for entries is April 27. Entry fees are $30, $60 and $90, depending on age, number of entries and categories. The event is free for spectators. Named for mythic Hawaiian people, said to be “dwarf sized,” the Menehune Surf Contest includes a judged surfing competition, and a party with raffles and silent auctions to raise
money for beneficiaries. This year’s beneficiaries are Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Friends of La Jolla Shores, Junior Lifeguard Foundation of San Diego and Natural High. “Years ago, the La Jolla Shores Surfing Association was just a group of surfers who wanted to get our kids involved in the principles of community and giving back, while enjoying and appreciating the ocean and surfing,” said contest director Stephanie Hoffman. To recognize the families that have taught their children to surf and encouraged participation in the contest, La Jolla Shores Surfing Association president Lorraine Schmalenberger said organizers introduced judged heats for parents a few years back. “The Shores is such a family place that through the years, we’ve started to see surfing families. So it occurred to me to get the moms and dads involved,” she said. The dad division is called the DOG (Dads Of Groms) and the mom division is MOB (Moms On Boards). Since then, Schmalenberger said, “It’s been wonderful to see the tables turn so the kids can cheer on the parents. It’s also so fun to

It’s become very popular.” Last year, the contest added an adaptive category for those with injuries, whether they be a menehune or a veteran. In its first year, the adaptive standing and prone divisions were not judged. But this year, the challenged
categories will be. “Through our connections on the beach, we learned veterans are returning from overseas, so we’ve noticed more surfing veterans,” Schmalenberger said. “A lot are amputees, but others have less visible injuries such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or brain injuries. Having them participate is a great way for our
group to honor veterans.” Hoffman added there would also be division for children with injuries and/or amputations, with many signed up to participate. “It motivates the children to see someone without an arm go out and surf and have a great time,” she said. To help organize the event, Hoffman said she has the help of several menehunes who are not so little anymore. “We see the kids that started surfing in this contest when they were 5 years old that are now teenagers coming back to volunteer the day of the event. More and more, I get calls from them asking how they can help.” In recent years, she added, the contest has grown from around 20 to nearly 200 entrants and another 50-plus volunteers. For the last 10 years, LJSSA has also sponsored an annual art contest, to find original artwork to grace the event T-shirts. This year’s winner is Point Loma High School student Katrina Schwartz who received $100 for her winning design. The top 40 entries will be exhibited at La Jolla’s Riford Library youth wing until mid May at the 7555 Draper Ave. library. —More event information at ljssa.org

Faulkner classic adapted in ‘Way Downriver’ By Diana Saenger William Faulkner’s story “Old Man,” about a historic flood that ravages the countryside of the lower Mississippi, became a classic over time, digging deep into the human experience of dealing with the forces of nature. Edward Morgan, a writer of plays, cabaret shows and adaptations, has reformed Faulkner’s “Old Man,” renamed it “Way Downriver,” and North Coast Repertory Theatre’s (NCRT) Artistic Director David Ellenstein is directing the drama, onstage through May 8. “The story is essentially the same,” Ellenstein said. “The adaptation is much more theatrical, personal and opened up. In the ‘Old Man,’ the characters didn’t even have names. This is a great story and this adaptation is more accessible and audience friendly.” The “Old Man” is a metaphor for the Mississippi River, and the context of the play is the record-breaking great Mississippi flood of 1927 (still on record as the greatest natural disaster in the history of the United States). “It’s what happens to the people in this story, not the flood, which is just a backdrop and the catalyst for what makes the human interactions happen,” Ellenstein said. The play deals with honor, security, fate, irony, perseverance, and one’s choice of values — all tied up in one man’s journey. “This man is a mixed bag; he’s dealing with catastrophe and other human beings who are at odds with him, and what he has to

The cast includes new and returning NCRT actors: Richard Baird, Geno Carr, Benjamin Cole, Sara Fetgatter, Robert Grossman, John Herzog and Max Macke. “Way Downriver” has only been staged once before, three years ago at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, as part of its Southern Writers Project. As the second production, Ellenstein said he is extremely excited about it.

“It’s theatrical, funny, entertaining, jumps around, has music and is profound,” he said. “It uses actors in a good way in that they sometimes play double characters… and it’s cleverly staged as you have actors acting out the story at the same time someone is telling the story, which creates a fun dynamic. I’m really jazzed about this play.” NCRT’s 34th season is nearly over and in retrospect Ellenstein said he’s very happy with the results — NCRT inked deals

SPONSORED COLUMNS DR. VAN CHENG San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263
The Myth of the Home Remedy Vein Cure Many people go out of their way to avoid surgery or other invasive treatment, which is understandable. For some, there is a genuine squeamishness when it comes to needles and the potential for any level of pain. Then there are those who are wary of the time or financial commitment involved in surgical and non-surgical procedures, with added time for recovery. Others yet have a mistrust of traditional or western medicine, preferring the homeopathic approach, favoring herbs, poultices, and essential oils. Thousands of dollars can be spend each year just by one person on supplements and home remedies—even in
the case of varicose and spider veins. There are popular searches on the internet for “Get rid of varicose veins naturally” and “How to get rid of varicose veins at home.” There are certainly plenty of results for supplements and remedies to “melt away your symptoms.” Millions of dollars, in fact, are spent a year, both on personal online retailers and at general nutrition stores, on supplements and creams that have no proven medical effects, have not been approved by the FDA, and in some cases can be hazardous to your health. Supplements are an unregulated industry—and because of the fact that 50% of people will develop varicose or spider veins in their lifetime, and many of those will seek home remedies, millions of dollars will continue to be spent on just vein remedies alone. It won’t matter if they are proven to be effective or not because people will continue to buy them, companies will continue to make and sell them for a profit, and until the companies are forced into regulation, new consumers will continue to pay up, seeking magic potions and snake oils. It is generally a good thing when people
make choices toward an active lifestyle and healthy living, including organic eating and avoiding unhealthful habits, especially with diet. In my columns, I’m an active proponent on doing whatever you can to prevent the conditions for varicose and spider veins to proliferate. But the truth is that some people are genetically predisposed to the condition, and there is no 100% proven prevention for any venous condition. And once you develop this condition, no home remedy will make them go away. Pine bark, witch hazel, grapeseed oil, cayenne pepper, immersion baths, green tea, chestnut bark, St. John’s wort, aloe vera, butcher’s broom, arnica Montana, and even turpentine and enemas have all been cited as cures for varicose veins—but they do not work. Any “improvements” noted from home remedies are a result of the placebo effect. Topical creams and ointments are a waste of money as well, and even exercise is not a cure (although don’t give up on exercise!). I know people’s fears of procedures are real. And for those whose mothers had the old fashioned vein treatments, those fears
Look to these local authorities for professional guidance on daily living at delmartimes.net/columns
are not unfounded. But vein therapy has become much less invasive than the outdated veins stripping of years past. All but the most severe treatment is a quick office visit that is so simple and non-traumatizing that it can be done on a work lunch break. Laser treatment and foam sclerotherapy are stateof-the-art treatments that, for some, involve almost no pain at all. Varicose veins are a medical condition, and if left untreated, can become something very serious indeed. You do not want to jeopardize your health. But it is good to be informed about your options. Speaking to a medical professional such as a phlebologist can answer many of your questions and put you at ease about treating your vein disease the right way. If you’re ready for a consultation on removing your spider or varicose veins, or if you just want more information on laser treatment or sclerotherapy, contact us at 760-944-9263 or visit our website at www. sdveininstitute.com.

San Diego Chargers Defensive End Corey Liuget; Casa de Amparo Executive Director Tamara Fleck-Myers, LMFT; Union Bank Regional President Robbin Narike Preciado; and San Diego Chargers Director of Public Affairs & Corporate/Community Relations Kimberly Layton pause for a photo after Union Bank and the San Diego Chargers presented $15,000 raised through the Game Changers program to Casa de Amparo.
Casa de Amparo leads the charge for Child Abuse Prevention Month Casa de Amparo kicked off the first full week of Child Abuse Prevention Month by hosting its 3rd Annual Come Home to Casa event and receiving a $15,000 gift from Union Bank and the San Diego Chargers as the beneficiaries of the Game Changers Program. April is National Child Abuse Prevention month and Casa de Amparo is encouraging all individuals and organizations to play a role in making San Diego County a better place for children and families. “April is a time to celebrate the important role that communities play in protecting children,” said Casa de Amparo Executive Director, Tamara Fleck-Myers LMFT. “Everyone’s participation is critical. Focusing on ways to build and support children and families in our care goes a long way toward preventing child abuse and neglect while simultaneously promoting optimal child development.” Now in its third year, Come Home to Casa is an open house event, where Casa de Amparo invites the community to visit the organization’s San Marcos campus and learn more about Casa de Amparo’s programs and facilities. Community members toured the 11.4-acre campus, signed the Casa Kid’s pledge wall, enjoyed refreshments, and participated in Come Home to Casa’s annual supply drive
by donating Casa de Amparo wish list items. Before the festivities began, Executive Director Tamara Fleck-Myers was invited down to Chargers Park to accept a $15,000 donation from the San Diego Chargers and Union Bank as the recipient of the 2015 Game Changers Program, which invited fans at Chargers home games to donate their loose change and bills in support of Casa de Amparo. Total donations were matched by the Union Bank Foundation and the San Diego Chargers resulting in $15,000 donation. After its third consecutive year, the Game Changers Program has contributed more than $45,000 to non-profits in the San Diego region. “Casa de Amparo is thankful to the San Diego Chargers and Union Bank for supporting our mission through the Game Changers campaign,” said Fleck-Myers. “Every dollar donated makes a huge difference in our initiatives to stop child mistreatment of any kind and end generational cycles of abuse. With your support, our goal is to create a community where child abuse and neglect are not tolerated, and families can thrive.” Community members who would like to play a meaningful role in preventing and treating child abuse and neglect can contact Kathy Karpé, Director of Development at (760) 754-5500 or kkarpe@casadeamparo.org.

FROM BEACHES, A1 capturing data at least once a week. Besides benefiting Encinitas decision-makers, the data will supplement research from Scripps Institute of Oceanography looking at where nearshore sand goes. Monitoring sand is nothing new. But the survey equipment in recent years has gotten smaller and very precise — within two centimeters of accuracy, according to Katherine Weldon, the city’s shoreline preservation manager. “We got an accurate read on El Niño for the first time, which is unique,” Weldon said. She added the city will continue to collect data for the foreseeable future. El Niño is known for large and frequent winter swells, speeding up coastal erosion that’s normal at San Diego beaches in the winter. Initial city numbers point to El Niño’s impact locally this winter: Moonlight Beach lost 340.79 square meters of sand from December to January and then another 906.72 square meters of sand from January to February. “We saw the shoreline recede a lot during months where there was a combination of huge storms and high tides,” Weldon said. From February to March, however, beaches gained back 300.15 square meters of sand. Weldon said the initial data will be converted to show sand movement in terms of cubic yards, a more accurate measure. Sand will keep returning to beaches in the coming months, as is typical in the spring and summer. The city will record just how much comes back, though it’s possible that a significant chunk could be permanently washed offshore. Cities are working to combat coastal erosion, which is exacerbated by inland dams trapping sediment that would otherwise flow to beaches, rising sea levels and bluff seawalls that cut off a natural supply of sand. Encinitas has a project in the works that would regularly pour offshore sand on beaches over 50 years, and sand-level data will help the city fine-tune this and other nourishment plans. “If we have data showing a stretch of beach has plenty of sand, we could hold off on nourishing it for a while or put less sand than originally planned,” Weldon said. She added: “It’s taking a scientific approach to beach replenishment.” The data will also shed light on sand transportation patterns over time, so beach replenishment sand could be strategically placed to best protect erosion hotspots or vulnerable infrastructure. Scripps Institute of Oceanography provided the sand-tracking equipment, in exchange for Encinitas sharing its research. Encinitas’ data will supplement existing Scripps research, and more local entities could contribute data down the line. Bob Guza, a research scientist with Scripps, said it’s critical to track sand in light of so much money being spent on nourishment plans. “In order to make these hard choices on which beaches receive sand, we have to have know if and how long the sand will stay there,” Guza said. It’s something he’s been studying for quite some time. Notably, Guza and a team closely monitored a regional SANDAG replenishment project that deposited sand in 2011, including in Cardiff. Their observations strongly suggest that some of the 2011 sand stuck around this winter in Cardiff, according to Guza, who added that it “significantly protected” Coast Highway 101 from flooding. “It’s not only a question of the economic impact, because if Highway 101 is closed, you can’t get emergency vehicles past,” he said. By contrast, he said Torrey Pines State Beach wasn’t replenished in 2011, and it’s in worse shape than beaches that were nourished. Guza noted current sand levels at Torrey Pines are the lowest that Scripps has recorded since it began monitoring there in 2001. Guza said quite a bit of replenishment sand often washes away permanently after a few years, but added if people want healthy beaches, coastlines have to be regularly maintained like roads. However, he cautioned that leaders must also consider the price tag and environmental impacts of nourishments. “It’s a complicated equation to consider,” Guza said. Guza said sand-surveying technology is much less expensive, simpler and smaller than it was just a few years ago, paving the way for Encinitas and other local entities to contribute to Scripps’ sand research. “Instead of taking three people to set up, one person can do it holding what looks like a kiddie wagon,” he said. He added: “It’s something that’s very useful because we can’t be everywhere.”

S
leep is the best meditation, says the Dalai Lama. It may also be the best medication. Sufficient sleep – seven or eight hours each night – is important to healing, proper immune function and mental health. Inadequate sleep has been associated with a host of ailments, from obesity and diabetes to stroke and heart disease. Add cancer to the list, particularly breast, prostate and colorectal. A 2014 study, for example, found that women who suffer chronic lack of sleep are more likely to develop more aggressive forms of breast cancer or experience recurrence. Another 2014 study reported that men with insomnia have a twofold greater risk of developing prostate cancer. And a 2010 study, which examined the sleep quality of persons prior to undergoing a colonoscopy, found a 50 percent increased risk of colorectal cancer in those who slept less than six hours per night. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder involving disrupted nocturnal breathing that results in fragmented sleep. It is estimated to affect at least 13 percent of men and 6 percent of women, with prevalence growing as the population becomes more obese (a major cause of OSA). Not surprisingly, OSA is already associated with heightened cardiovascular
problems, such as arrhythmias, systemic hypertension and myocardial ischemia. In addition, there are neurocognitive consequences, such as excessive daytime sleepiness, poor job performance and greater risk of accidents. But emerging evidence suggests OSA increases cancer risk as well. For example, epidemiological studies have found that persons with untreated, severe OSA have a greater risk of developing cancer than those without OSA. These studies report that cancer patients with solid tumors, such as colorectal, lung, pancreatic or liver, and severe untreated OSA have a five-fold greater risk of dying earlier from cancer than those without OSA, due to the repetitive swings in the patient’s blood oxygen levels as the result of the untreated apnea. In a mouse study, animals with melanoma that undergo conditions that simulate OSA experienced larger or more aggressive tumors. Recently, with support from Peter Farrell, Ph.D., founder and chairman of ResMed, a maker of diagnostic and therapeutic devices related to sleep disorders, Atul Malhotra, M.D., chief of the division of pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine at UC San Diego School of Medicine, and I hosted a two-day symposium with participants from UCLA, Boston
University, Stanford, Duke, Johns Hopkins and the Sanford Burnham Cancer Center. The goal was to make connections, share notes and begin to define a scientific path toward better understanding the link between sleep and cancer and therapeutic remedies. Attending and presenting were some of the recognized experts in this budding field: Paul E. Peppard, Ph.D., associate professor of medicine at University of Wisconsin-Madison and a sleep epidemiologist whose work was among the first to note the link between OSA and cancer; David Gozal, M.D., chief of pediatrics at University of Chicago, whose work has involved the mentioned mouse studies; and Avirum Spira, M.D., of Boston University, who recently published a study in the New England Journal of Medicine on biomarkers of cancer risk. From UC San Diego were Pablo Tamayo, Ph.D., co-director of genomics and computational biology at Moores Cancer Center, Lyudmila Bashenova, M.D., associate clinical professor of medicine; Kathryn Gold, M.D., associate professor of medicine, Robert Owens, M.D., associate professor of medicine and Mark Fuster, M.D., associate professor in residence. Highlights from the symposium will be published for further dissemination in the scientific community. And with added support from Farrell, seed money will soon be made available to jump-start the science of sleep and cancer here. Given the local talent, leadership and financial support, UC San Diego has the potential to become a leader in tackling the fundamental questions about sleep and cancer biology. This is a wake-up call and a call to action. —Scott M. Lippman, M.D., is Director of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center.

Five things to know about total joint replacement BY CHRISTOPHER HAJNIK, MD
Not only can pain in your hip or knee joints keep you from enjoying your favorite sports, it can interfere with simple everyday activities such as walking, bending, climbing stairs and even sleeping. For some people, medications, physical therapy and other treatments help relieve pain, but often that relief is only temporary. When that happens, it may be time to consider joint replacement. If you’re living with debilitating hip or knee pain caused by arthritis, joint replacement surgery can eliminate your pain and improve your mobility. Joint replacement surgery has come a long way in recent years, and hip and knee replacement is easier, safer and more effective than ever before. Here are five of the most common questions our patients have about total joint replacement surgery: What happens during joint replacement surgery? Using state-of-the-art medical equipment, the surgeon replaces your damaged joint with an
artificial joint (called an implant) with outstanding precision and accuracy to mirror your natural anatomy and movement. The surgery itself can take one to three hours. Why is joint replacement surgery so much better than it used to be? Both the technology used in joint replacement and the surgical techniques have greatly improved. The implants used in hip and knee replacement today are stronger and last longer, so they can keep you moving comfortably for up to 20 years. In many cases, minimally invasive surgical techniques mean smaller incisions, less discomfort, a shorter hospital stay and a faster recovery. How long will I be in the hospital? You can expect to be in the hospital for one to two nights. You’ll start moving and walking as soon as the day of surgery. You will begin physical therapy in the hospital, and your physical rehabilitation specialist will develop a personalized therapy plan for you to follow after you are discharged to help you gain the strength and
mobility to do the activities you enjoy. You may spend a few days in a physical rehabilitation center after you leave the hospital, or you may have physical therapy in an outpatient center or at home. What can I expect after joint replacement surgery? Hip and knee replacement surgery results are usually excellent. Most or all of your pain and stiffness should go away, and your ability to move freely should improve greatly. Most patients are able to resume all of their usual activities – and do them without pain. If you participate in sports, the type of activity makes a difference. You will likely be able to do low-impact activities such as swimming, cycling and golfing sooner than tennis or snow skiing. Full recovery will take several months to a year. What qualifications should I look for in an orthopedic surgeon? Where your joints are concerned, experience

www.encinitasadvocate.com FROM LOSS, A7 than 10,000 visitors a month. Hilary Gauntt said her husband was always a caring man, but not one in touch with his emotions. Jimmy’s death opened the floodgates. “It was a hugely positive transformation,” she said. “Before our son died, he wouldn’t get too close to people. Now, instead of not returning phone calls, he’s the first to call. And we are so much closer now. Sometimes we have the most intimate conversations and I wonder what we talked about before. There’s a whole new level of communication that’s deeply emotional.” Helping him on his healing journey were two new friends in grief, Richard Page and Greg Post. Page, a fellow attorney, called Gauntt the day after Jimmy’s death, welcoming him to the “fraternity” of grieving dads. Page’s 18-year-old son, Alex, was killed in a 2001 car accident in Solana Beach. Post lost his 18-year-old daughter, Amanda, in a fiery three-vehicle accident near Bishop in 2011, two years to the day after Jimmy’s death. In 2013, the three men formed the club they call The Fraternity, a group of nine fathers who meet quarterly for drinks, dinner and conversation. Post said the “brothers in pain” communicate together on a level they can’t find with anyone else. “Guys are supposed to be tough, stiff-upper-lip types, but this is an opportunity

FROM PANTRY, A1 names and we’ve watched their kids grow up. Before it was just handing them a bag." She added a number of people who pick up food from the pantry or did so in the past appreciate it so much that they’ve gone on to volunteer there. The pantry draws people from the surrounding neighborhood, and as far away as Oceanside. Many of them are veterans, homeless or families that need a little help getting by for a period. "One family’s business went belly up," Heyligers said. "Everyone has a story." Sharon Benton was among those picking up groceries for her family. "This has been a Godsend for a lot of people," Benton said. "It helps get through the month." Also, Benton added being able to select her food means only having to take what she needs. Heyligers, who grew up in New York, said her family cared a great deal about eating healthy, fresh meals together. She added everyone — regardless of their economic standing — should have the same opportunity. "My life has been a lot about feeding people and family," she said. But, she added, her passion for aiding those in need doesn’t necessarily come from her upbringing. "When I first volunteered here, I realized it’s just very rewarding to make sure people are fed." Heyligers said occasionally bread goes stale, but very little there goes to waste. That’s a point of pride for her, especially

for us to get together to share our thoughts and feelings,” Post said. “I’ll be the first to admit we cry each day. Some days are harder than others ... But we also have each done a lot to honor our children and we like to celebrate the love we have for those we lost as well as our surviving children.” Post has high praise for Gauntt’s writing and his desire to reach out to other fathers facing loss. “Casey is a special guy,” Post said. “He’s unassuming, very modest and very thoughtful. When you meet him you see he has a very good spiritual base and thoughts about life and death.” Gauntt’s latest project is “Suffering is the Only Honest Work,” a self-published memoir about his life, his father, his son and the mystical connectivity of their lives. Jimmy is listed as co-author because Gauntt said his son’s writings “have blown the doors off our hearts and minds.” The book is named for a poem Jimmy wrote after finishing the 2007 Los Angeles Marathon. Although not a practicing Buddhist, he believed in the triumph of mind over matter and reincarnation. The poem’s final lines have great resonance for Gauntt: “And this death not even a trailhead on the endless loop through ourselves/that when my body lies flat in the tall grass, the rest of me bounds up the hill.” Pam Kragen is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune.

after working in the restaurant industry years ago and seeing how much food was dumped into the garbage. St. Andrew’s was among the early supermarket-style pantries, a concept that Heyligers said she hadn’t seen elsewhere, but just happened to arrive at. She has shared and championed the idea at county panels addressing hunger. Her dedication to helping the community earned her a spot in "Hidden Treasures," a soon-to-debut exhibit paying tribute to unsung heroes in the community. Volunteers praised Heyligers and the pantry. "She’s selfless with her time and energy," said Alice Keller, echoing others. Keller, who organizes and arranges the produce, added Heyligers is a natural leader. In addition to spending about 10 hours a week on the pantry, Heyligers is a full-time realtor. It’s a lot, but more than worth it, she said. Chris Mango, a Marine Corps veteran who is homeless, said the entire operation is very generous. Mango tries to eat healthy, but said it’s really tough given his circumstances. "Everything is good — and that’s hard to find for me," Mango said while picking up a head of lettuce. The food pantry’s budget is separate from the church, with all funding coming from donations. To donate money or volunteer, email Heyligers at aheyligers@aol.com. Donations, like extra produce from the garden or canned goods, can be dropped off in front of the church, at 890 Balour Dr.
