RSF Rotary Club Fall Festival BBQ

BY KRISTINA HOUCK Eric Chen, a senior at Canyon Crest Academy, recently won the grand prize at the 2013 international Google Science Fair. The 17-year-old won for his project, which focuses on the development of an anti-flu medicine to fight a deadly infection from a new strain of the flu virus that could cause an epidemic.

“Current antiviral drugs are losing their effectiveness because resistant flu strains are emerging,” Chen said in an interview with this newspaper before the competition. “So there’s this need for new anti-flu medicine to hold back the pandemic wave while new vaccines are being developed.”

As the competition’s top winner, Chen won a $50,000 scholarship, a 10day trip to the Galapagos Islands with National Geographic Expeditions and more.

Inspired by the 2009 flu pandemic, Chen has worked on his project, “The Taming of the Flu,” at UC San Diego and Scripps Research Institute labs since May 2012. He uses computer modeling and simulation combined with biological experimentation to speed up the discovery process of new drug candidates, he said. He is working on finding compounds See GOOGLE, Page 22

Local planning board votes against Via de la Valle widening project

BY KAREN BILLING The Carmel Valley Community Planning Board decided to take a stand against the Via de la Valle widening, voting 9-2 against the project as proposed at its Sept. 26 meeting.

The widening of Via de la Valle from two to four lanes from San Andres to El Camino Real is a project about 10 years in the making.

“I’m going to support the motion even though I was part of the task force that championed that road,” said Frisco White, planning board chair.

White said he had never been in favor of a four-lane road, but worked with the task force years ago to get the road as narrow as possible through the sensitive riverpark area. In light of the concerns expressed by Del Mar Horsepark users and businesses adjacent to the road, he decided to support the motion to recommend rejection of the project as it stands.

The planning board’s vote is advisory and the project is next expected to go before the city planning commission by November or December. Proponents and opponents of the widening will have the opportunity to have their voices heard at the commission level. Should it be approved, the See PROJECT, page 22

Canyon Crest Academy celebrates project completion with ‘Track & Turf Field Dedication’

BY KAREN BILLING Canyon Crest Academy Ravens athletics squads can finally claim a home field advantage after the dedication of their sparkling new track and athletic field on Friday, Sept. 27.

The field is the San Dieguito Union High School District’s (SDUHSD) first major project completed with Proposition AA funds. A ceremony was held for the new nine-lane, allweather track and artificial turf field that was put into use immediately for the Academy Cup, a girls field hockey match between the Ravens and visiting San Dieguito Academy.

“Many have been waiting for this day for a long time,” said Jeff Copeland, the school’s vice principal and athletic director. “This facility is absolutely stunning, in fact, it’s probably the best I’ve ever seen.”

And it’s only the beginning.

BY JOE TASH Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation Sept. 30 authorizing the fairgrounds to host a fall race meet beginning in 2014.

The decision also could open the door for the Del Mar track to host the Breeder’s Cup, a prestigious annual horse racing event.

The bill, AB 1074 by Assemblywoman Toni Atkins, DSan Diego, affirms a decision approving the additional race meet made earlier by the California Horse Racing Board, said Adam Day, president of the board of the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which runs the state-owned fairgrounds.

California Coastal Commission to consider approval of permits for operations at the Del Mar Fairgrounds

BY JOE TASH The California Coastal Commission will soon consider whether to approve a pair of coastal development permits for operations at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, which could finally resolve legal disputes between two sister state agencies that date back for more than two decades.

The permit applications submitted by the 22nd District Agricultural Association, the entity that runs the stateowned fairgrounds, arose from an agreement reached last year between the Coastal Commission and the 22nd DAA. The agreement contains two major components: One is See PERMITS page 24

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Legal battle over the Mount Soledad cross basis for new novel •Book also has a Rancho Santa Fe connection

BY JOE TASH To Robert LaCosta, the 24-year legal battle over the Mount Soledad cross includes many dramatic elements, from tension between generations, to disputes over the treatment of religious symbols, to respect for those who served in the military and died in battle.

After working on the story for 15 years, earlier this summer LaCosta published his novel about the long-running court case, called “Gamaliel’s Advice: Taking Down God.” The book was published by Thomas Nelson, and is available in bookstores and online.

LaCosta, 57, a resident of Albany, New York, is a frequent visitor to San Diego to visit his brother, Paul, and his family, who live in Scripps Ranch.

He has often enjoyed visiting the cross atop Mount Soledad in La Jolla to admire the view and the peaceful setting. When he found out that some in the community wanted to take it down, he said, “I was shocked.”

He said he understands the viewpoint of those who say they’re not against religious freedom, but simply oppose religious symbols on public land (when the legal battle began, the cross was on property owned by the city of San Diego).

“The trouble with that thinking is there are a lot of people who believe that particular symbol is intertwined with military sacrifice. So it’s not quite that simple,” LaCosta said in a telephone interview.

“It’s almost like two trees growing together, you cut one and you cut the other,” he said.

The original lawsuit was filed in 1989 by Philip Paulson, a Vietnam veteran and atheist. Veterans groups opposed efforts to take down the cross, and the case gained national attention as it worked its way through the courts. Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case, sending it back to the District Court in San Diego. A hearing is scheduled before U.S. District Judge Larry Burns on Oct. 15, said LaCosta.

Author Robert LaCosta Courtesy photo LaCosta’s book focuses on two main characters, a World War II veteran who is determined to save the cross, and his granddaughter.

At times, the granddaughter — who is based on LaCosta’s niece, a Marine pilot — must endure teasing from her peers over her family’s involvement in the case, LaCosta said.

The book also has a Rancho Santa Fe connec-

tion, in the character of a young attorney who works for the city of San Diego and defends the veterans’ position. The attorney’s father bears a resemblance to Charles LiMandri, a Rancho Santa Fe attorney who has worked in court, with legislators and the political arena in an effort to save the cross, LaCosta said.

LiMandri said the book is a “good read,” and although LaCosta does take some “poetic license” with the story, he captured the essence of the legal case.

“I think he does a nice job kind of summarizing the long and involved history of the cross, particularly the litigation concerning the cross. The way he presents the litigation is accurate and understandable,” LiMandri said.

LiMandri said he expects the case to eventually come back before the U.S. Supreme Court, and it could be a springboard for deciding a range of similar cases, such as disputes over displays of nativity scenes at Christmas-time.

“I think they’re waiting

for this case,” LiMandri said.

LaCosta has also written a screenplay of the novel, which he hopes to see made into a film.

One aspect of the story that fascinated LaCosta was the way a symbol that had been accepted by the community for so many years suddenly came under fire.

The Mount Soledad cross was put up in 1954, and existed without controversy for more than three decades.

“That’s why a guy from New York got so entrenched in this thing,” he said.

San Diego’s large population of active-duty and retired military may be one reason why the fight has gone on so long, he said, and that in another place, the cross might have been taken down years ago.

“I’d like to see San Diego portrayed as city that stood its ground… it’s a great place that loves veterans,” LaCosta said.

The title of the book refers to Rabbi Gamaliel, a first-century teacher of Jewish law. In the New Testament, Gamaliel intervened on behalf of the apostles of Jesus when they had been seized and brought before the Sanhedrin, the supreme Jewish court.

“Gamaliel’s Advice” is LaCosta’s third book. Now a full-time writer, LaCosta worked for years in the hearing aid business, building up a chain of offices where clients were fitted with hearing devices. He has since sold the business.

RSF best-selling author to speak and teach at Annual La Jolla Writers Conference

BY KRISTINA HOUCK As a New York Times best-selling author, Christopher Reich knows how to write a compelling story.

That’s why the Rancho Santa Fe resident was once again asked to speak and teach at the La Jolla Writers Conference Nov. 1-3 at Paradise Point Resort & Spa in San Diego.

“Giving back is what it’s all about,” Reich said. “Being a writer is a solitary profession, so you’re alone in a room for hours a day.

There’s nothing more fun than being with a group of individuals who share the same passion, have the same skill set and aspire to the same goal as you do.”

A former investment banker, Reich writes international espionage thrillers.

He has authored nine books, and his latest, “The Prince of Risk,” is available on Dec. 2. The financial thriller is set in Wall Street, London and Shanghai.

As one of three keynote speakers, Reich plans to talk about how to write exciting thrillers and keep readers satisfied. He is also holding read and critique sessions.

“I love speaking to aspiring authors and published authors,” Reich said.

“The La Jolla Writers Conference is the best run, most enjoyable, most educational writers conference I’ve ever taken part in.”

In addition to Reich, the 13th annual conference will feature New York Times best-selling authors Dale

Author Christopher Reich Brown and Lisa Jackson as keynote speakers. From how to get stared to how to get published, authors Nancy Bush, Lissa Price and Joseph Wambaugh, along with agents, publishers, publicists, editors and screenwriters will also share their knowledge about the art, craft and business of writing.

“We don’t put our people on a panel,” said conference founder Antoinette Kuritz, a literary publicist. “Our authors, agents and publishers actually do workshops where your work is exposed to them. It’s a rare opportunity to get up close and personal with these people.”

The three-day program features lectures and workshops from almost 25 faculty members. Intended for writers at all levels and limited to 200 attendees, the conference offers small classes, accessible faculty, the sense of community and networking.

“Our faculty is extraordinary accessible. I choose them for their knowledge, their ability to imprint that knowledge — because not everybody can teach — and their generosity in doing so,” said Kuritz, who noted all faculty members volunteer their time. “I want people to come to this conference because they want to be there, they want to share their knowledge and they want to connect with aspiring authors.”

The La Jolla Writers Conference is set for Nov. 1-3 at Paradise Point Resort & Spa, 1404 Vacation Road, San Diego.

Registration costs $385.

“As a writer, everyone will tell you, you cannot do it,” Reich said. “You have to just keep at it and never give up.”

Beach and Country Guild of RSF to host 44th annual Dia Del Sol

BY KRISTINA HOUCK Born with athetoid cerebral palsy, Jennifer Johnson cannot walk or talk. Using a communication device, the 42-year-old San Diego resident will explain how the equipment has improved her life during the Beach and Country Guild’s 44th annual Dia Del Sol on Oct. 16, which benefits United Cerebral Palsy of San Diego County. “I am going to talk about my life being non-verbal, how it affected me before I got a communication device and how independent I am now with a communication device,� said Johnson, who was diagnosed with athetoid cerebral palsy, a birth defect caused by brain damage, when she was about 6 months old.

The Rancho Santa Fe-based guild holds several small fundraising events throughout the year, but Dia Del Sol, an annual luncheon and fashion show, is its largest event. All proceeds benefit UCP, which offers the San Diego Assistive Technology Center so individuals with disabilities, their families, professionals and other community members can learn about assistive technology solutions through hands-on exploration of a wide variety of adapted computer hardware and software, environmental control access, and augmentative and alternative communication devices.

Because she cannot use a regular mouse, the center helped Johnson obtain an adapted joystick and an adapted keyboard with a keyguard so she doesn’t hit other keys while she types. “[UCP’s] Assistive Technology Center will benefit from this fundraising event by getting new equipment for the center and loaning devices out to people to try out or look at a device before they get one of their own,� she said.

The event will feature a gourmet luncheon, silent and live auctions, and a fashion show with several local designers and boutiques, including Kenneth Barlis, Maggie B, Mister B, Max Mara, Nicole Miller, Nordstrom and Ted Baker London. There will also be a children’s fashion show, featuring children with cerebral palsy.

Live auction items include a seven-night stay at a Baja California resort, seven nights for two on a SeaDream Yacht Club cruise, a jet flight and wine tasting experience in Napa Valley, a cocktail soiree for 20, and more. Mini-live auction items include a breakfast getaway, gourmet dinner, luggage,

Photos/Jon Clark and more. “Since I’ve been going to this event, it has been one of the most lively and fun events,� said guild president Maria Parnell, a Rancho Santa Fe resident who has been with the guild for seven years. “The energy is high, everyone has a good time, they love being there and it supports a very worthy cause.�

The guild has supported United Cerebral Palsy for 44 years. From assisting someone in finding their first job, to creating support groups for families, United Cerebral Palsy’s mission is to advance the independence, productivity and full citizenship of people affected by cerebral palsy. “They need our help. They need somebody like this group to focus on their cause and donate to them directly,�

Parnell said. “We make sure that the money stays here for the centers we work with. It’s nice to see our money at work.� “This event is important because it will benefit and help the center out by helping many disabled people,� Johnson said. “And once someone with a disability or their family member knows about the center, they will use the center more and that may lead them to a more productive life in their community and add to their contribution to society.�

Dia Del Sol takes place from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 16 at The Grand Del Mar, 5300 Grand Del Mar Court, San Diego.

Rancho Santa Fe teen to co-star in ‘Shrek the Musical’

BY KRISTINA HOUCK As a young child, Samantha Tullie watched the film “Shrek” so many times she memorized almost every line.

Beginning Oct. 12, the 15-year-old Rancho Santa Fe resident will co-star in J* Company Youth Theatre’s “Shrek the Musical.”

“I just really, really liked to sing when I was little,” said Tullie, a sophomore at Canyon Crest Academy in Carmel Valley. “When I heard things I really liked on the radio or in a movie, I tried to learn it as fast as I could. I would sing it over and over again.”

Tullie portrays Dragon, Donkey’s romantic interest. Although the part has no speaking lines, Tullie said she auditioned for the role of Dragon because it features a challenging “Dreamgirls” type song.

“It’s a bigger than life part,” Tullie said. “Even though there’s no speaking, it’s really fun. The song is really big.”

Tullie began performing at 9 years old. While a majority of her experience has been at La Jolla-based J* Company Youth Theatre, she most recently played Nurse in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet” at San Diego Junior Theatre.

Under the direction of J* Company’s Joey Landwehr, some of her favorite roles include Hodel in “Fiddler on the Roof” and Fairy Godmother in “Cinderella.”

“Performing is something I’ve always wanted to do,” said Tullie, who has worked with vocal coach Roy Mote and has received acting, vocal and dance

training through programs at Broadway/San Diego and Camp Jaycee, La Jolla Playhouse and Interlochen Center for the Arts. “I really like how you can completely become another person and totally embody them. Sometimes they’re just so far off from who you really are, and those are the most fun to perform. I also like how you can just really touch and move the audience when you’re totally into your role.”

Directed by Landwehr, “Shrek the Musical” features 72 cast members, 10 youth crew members and four youth orchestra members playing in the pit. Joshua Shtein, 17, plays Shrek, and Sam Brogadir, 15, portrays

Donkey on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona, portrayed by 16-year-old Celia Tedde, from her tower guarded by a fire-breathing dragon.

“It’s a really talented cast. The costumes are amazing and really, really fun,” said Tullie, who hopes to pursue a career as an actress and singer. “Adults and kids will love it! There are a couple of lines only the adults will get, and there are lines that little kids will find absolutely hilarious.”

“Shrek the Musical” runs Oct. 12-27 at the David and Dorothea Garfield Theatre at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center at 4126 Executive Drive in La Jolla.

Experts share knowledge at breast cancer seminar

BY KRISTINA HOUCK The National Cancer Institute recommends that women age 40 or older have screening mammograms every one to two years.

Although Laurie Lovell was only 39 years old and breast cancer didn’t run in her family, she discovered a lump while performing a breast self-exam.

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, is now undergoing chemotherapy, and will most likely have radiation, breast reconstruction and hormonal treatment.

Local resident Lynn Flanagan, a breast cancer survivor for more than 16 years, said the outlook for the now 40-year-old is “hopeful� during a breast cancer forum that was dedicated to Lovell, who was unable to attend, on Sept.

18 at St. Therese of Carmel Catholic Church in Carmel Valley. “By doing her own breast exam and requesting an MRI, Laurie probably saved her life,� said Flanagan, whose breast cancer support group, Linked by Lynn, sponsored the event. “Laurie’s case is the classic one, which is of particular interest to our physicians tonight.�

Radiologist Dr. Richard Reitherman, surgeon Dr. Michele Carpenter, surgeon Dr. Jane Kakkis and genetic counselor Sandra Brown spoke about early detection and the recurrence of breast cancer.

Brown, the manager of the Cancer Genetics Program at St. Joseph Hospital and Mission Hospital in Orange, Calif., talked about the differences in occurrences of cancers, including a sporadic event, a moderate risk and an inherited risk.

Most breast cancers are sporadic. That means that every woman has about a 12 percent chance of developing breast cancer, she said. A woman has a 15-30 percent moderate or familial risk of developing breast cancer if she has a history of the disease in her family. A woman could have up to an 85 percent risk if she has a genetic mutation or inherited risk.

Genetic counselors, Brown said, can analyze a woman’s

Photos/Kristina Houck family history, try to make accurate risk assessments, use genetic testing and recommend additional and individualized risk management. She encouraged attendees to talk to a genetic counselor if they are concerned about their family history. “Sometimes women are very afraid to come in because it’s difficult to find out that you carry a mutation,� Brown said. “It is difficult. But knowing is empowering as well. It really does allow us to focus on prevention.�

Carpenter noted about 5 to 10 percent of breast cancer cases are thought to be hereditary, meaning that they result directly from mutations inherited from a parent. “Most of us think our risk of getting breast cancer is actually much higher than it truly is,� she said.

Other risk factors include being a woman, aging, having a family history of breast cancer, having a personal history of breast cancer, having more menstrual cycles due to starting menstruation early or going through menopause later,

having no children or having a first child after age 30, using hormone therapy, among others.

Another risk is having dense breast tissue.

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. “Women deserve shared decision making and informed consent, and that’s what the dense breast legislation is about,� Reitherman said.

Dense breast tissue might be the greatest cancer risk women have never heard of, said Kakkis, who testified before state legislatures on the dense breast legislation, and discussed the new law during the seminar.

She thanked patients and survivors like Flanagan for helping educate others about breast cancer. “We’re a team—all of us,� Kakkis said. “We can help decrease the morbidity and mortality of this disease while we’re still trying to find a cure.�

Experts to hold free informational meetings on children and ADHD

BY JOE TASH Many small children have difficulty paying attention in class at times, and may even be disruptive or misbehave. But if the problem is persistent or severe, it could be a sign of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD. Two local psychologists, Lori Rappaport and Lewis Ribner, are putting on a series of free informational meetings in October to discuss ADHD, how the disorder is diagnosed, and treatment options. The sessions begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be held at the Carmel Valley Library on Oct. 15, the Poway Library on Oct. 16 and the 4S Ranch Library on Oct. 22.

Rappaport and Ribner are co-directors of the ADHD Center for Success in Carmel Valley, where they can evaluate children and diagnose their condition, and also develop treatment plans that can include such components as medication, counseling and skills training.

According to Rappaport and Ribner, ADHD is a hereditary neurological disorder, which can disrupt a child’s ability to concentrate and thrive in school, and can even carry over into adult life.

Some people diagnosed with the disorder have difficulty concentrating or following directions, while others may have a hard time sitting quietly, and act out impulsively. Still others may suffer from both attention deficit and hyperactivity. “It’s important for people to understand that ADHD is really a problem of self-regulation and performance, but it’s not indicative of a lack of intelligence or lack of skills,� said Ribner. “Something’s getting in the way of being able to use what they’ve got.�

Some children are able to compensate for their inability to concentrate when they are younger, but then begin having problems in middle or high school when the demands become greater, the psychologists said. For example, Rappaport said girls often suffer in silence from attention deficit, masking their condition until they are older, when they begin to fail their classes. They weren’t diagnosed at a younger age because, “They weren’t bothering anyone,� she said.

School can be particularly difficult for people with ADHD, she said, because they are forced to sit quietly and listen to things they aren’t interested in. On the other hand, people with the condition can excel at things they really enjoy. “Someone with attention deficit, if they really love something, they can be as good at it as anybody in the world,� whether it’s playing video games or working at their job, said Ribner. “If you give that person something they don’t like to do, no matter how hard they try they just can’t get it organized and can’t get it done.�

In children, the disorder can be hard to spot at younger ages, such as 5 or 6, when children in general can be fidgety and moving around a lot. But the difference becomes more

Alex Espinosa and Kalina Quinn.

Lewis Ribner Lori Rappaport apparent at 7 or 8, when children begin to settle down, and one or two hyperactive children tend to stand out more, Rappaport said.

During an evaluation, mental health professionals look at how the disorder impacts an individual child’s ability to learn in school.

Medication often plays a role, Rappaport said. “It gives them the ability to focus and have more control over their behavior.�

Counseling of both the child with ADHD, and his or her family, is also important, said Ribner. The entire family is included because all of the members are likely to be affected, and parents may need guidance on how best to help their children.

Therapists may recommend that children with ADHD do their homework in an environment that doesn’t include such distractions as TV, video games, or smart phones. However, Rappaport noted that in certain cases, stimulation such as music or conversation in a coffee house may actually help a person with ADHD concentrate on their work.

In working with clients, the psychologists also attempt to identify other underlying conditions, from mental health issues to learning disorders, that might be interfering with the ability to be effective in school or work. “It’s a very complex evaluation, it’s not just about a diagnosis, but how best to help them and what changes need to be made for them to be successful,� Rappaport said.

RSF resident/Grauer School student honored as National Merit Commended Student Grauer School seniors Alex Espinosa, of Rancho Santa Fe, and Kalina Quinn, of Leucadia, have been named National Merit Commended Students. To achieve this honor, both students scored higher than 2000 on the PSAT exam, qualifying them for national recognition. Approximately 1.5 million students take the exam each year, placing Quinn and Espinosa among just 2.3 percent of test-takers to earn the honor.

In addition, Alex Espinosa is the recipient of the National Hispanic Recognition Program (NHRP) Scholar award for outstanding academic achievement. He is among 5,300 Hispanic or Latino high school students selected from a pool of over 259,000 who took the 2012 exam to receive recognition from the NHRP, and his academic excellence, reflected in his grade-point average, has designated him as an NHRP Scholar.

As a college preparatory school which emphasizes Socratic education balanced with expeditionary learning, The Grauer School does not focus on preparing students for standardized testing, yet students regularly excel on such tests, including the SAT, ACT, and yearly Iowa testing. “I think that because Grauer’s academics don’t focus solely on preparing for standardized tests, learning was made more interesting for me,� Espinosa says. “Grauer’s broader focus helped me gain a deeper understanding of the curriculum.�

Both Espinosa and Quinn agree that the teachers at Grauer make the experience: “The part of the academic experience that enhances my time at Grauer is the amazing teachers who challenge me in creative ways,� says Espinosa, and Quinn goes on to say that she finds teachers to be “always approachable, and I think they genuinely want us to succeed.�

Pacific Bach Project concert to be held in RSF Oct. 20 After their sold-out debut performance last season, the dynamic new period instrument orchestra and chorus of the Pacific Bach Project will perform in Rancho Santa Fe on Sunday, Oct. 20, at 5 p.m. at the Village Prebyterian Church (6225 Paseo Delicias, Rancho Santa Fe, CA 92067).

The Pacific Bach Project presents “A Mighty Fortress: Music for Reformation Day, the Feast of St. Michael, and More,� featuring festive music from a wide range of cantatas Bach composed for Sundays during September and October, including BWV’s 130, 19, 79, 80, 51 and 50. The Pacific Bach Project performs on period instruments, with commentary and English super-titles that make it easy for everyone to appreciate this extraordinary music. “Bach’s cantatas are a treasure trove that too few people these days know about, or have the opportunity to experience live,� says conductor Rick Westerfield, who will conduct the 45-member Pacific Bach Project orchestra and choir comprised of elite performers from throughout Southern California, the Bay Area, Washington DC and New York City. A former assistant conductor of both the New York Philharmonic and the Boston Symphony, Westerfield has led many of North America’s leading symphony orchestras as well as others in Germany, France, Great Britain, Spain, Japan, New Zealand and Australia.

A new feature of the Pacific Bach Project is an educational outreach to high school and college choirs in this area – and for this performance, the gifted singers of the Canyon Crest Academy Choir will be the ensemble’s special guests, along with students from the San Diego State University choral program. The young people will perform alongside the professional vocalists in the final work on the program, Bach’s only double chorus cantata.

Letters to the Editor/Opinion

RSF Education Foundation thanks Corporate Sponsors for 2013-2014 school year

BY RANCHO SANTA FE EDUCATION FOUNDATION The Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation (RSFEF) is proud to recognize its corporate sponsors for the 2013-2014 school year. Since 1997, the RSFEF has been a source of vital funding that enables the extraordinary education experienced by students at R. Roger Rowe School. The cornerstone of the RSFEF is its Five Star Education Program, which focuses on small class size, specialized teachers, literacy excellence, integrated science and differentiated mathematics.

This year the RSFEF is providing a grant of $1.1 million to the school district generously donated by school families.

To help meet its goal of raising these important funds, the RSFEF hosts numerous events throughout the school year that would not be possible without the generous support of its corporate sponsors.

To kick off the school year, the RSFEF hosts a series of social events for families new to R. Roger Rowe School, including pool parties, a back-to-school barbeque, and the Newcomers Cocktail Party. These events are geared towards welcoming new families and easing the transition of their children into the school community. Later in the year, the RSFEF hosts its annual Cap and Gown and the Scholars’ Circle Recognition evenings honoring those who have generously donated to the RSFEF. Marquee sponsor Wells Fargo has sponsored these events since 2008.

“As one of San Diego County’s most generous corporate givers, Wells Fargo is proud to be a longtime supporter of the Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation,” said Laura Stansberry, Southern California regional managing director for Wells Fargo Private Bank. “Supporting education is a top priority for Wells Fargo and to help ensure that today’s youth are receiving the support they need to become our future leaders, Wells Fargo contributes locally more than $1 million each year to San Diego County schools, educational programs and organizations like the Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation.”

Critical to the success of the RSFEF events are local businesses that donate their resources to various functions throughout the year. Early in the school year, the RSFEF hosts the annual Scholars’ Circle Informational to introduce new families to the importance of the Scholars’ Circle giving levels. The RSFEF wraps up the school year with the annual Toast of the Town Art Auction, which highlights works of art made by students and offers them in a live auction to the parent community. The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe generously provides use of its facilities and staff to make these

San Diego charity teams up with university on run to help families battling cancer

BY MELISSA MIKULAK There is nothing like the love between a parent and child – and no greater sorrow than losing your child to a terrible disease.

My son, Max, was just 3 years old when his health had suddenly declined. Three days after he was admitted to Rady Children’s Hospital, a pediatric oncologist delivered the worst news we could ever imagine: Max had stage 4 neuroblastoma, an aggressive childhood cancer.

Max died on Aug. 31, 2008 – two months after he turned 7 and only six days after starting second grade. The cancer overwhelmed his little body, which was already tired from years of aggressive chemotherapy and radiation treatments.

Every year, 13,500 children nationwide are diagnosed with childhood cancers; like Max, 1,500 lose their battle. Childhood cancers are the leading cause of death by disease in children under the age of 15 in the United States, killing more children than AIDS, asthma, diabetes, cystic fibrosis and congenital anomalies combined. Despite the overwhelming numbers, just 4 percent of the U.S. federal funding goes to childhood cancer research. The bio-pharmaceutical industry’s investment on research and development for childhood cancers is virtually nonexistent.

The experience of watching your child die before your eyes is beyond description, made worse by the fact that so little funding is directed to research. With aching hearts, a commitment to help other families waging similar battles and our own desire to honor our son by “living life to the Max,” we created Max’s Ring of Fire to raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer research.

To date, we have helped fund the Neu-

roblastoma and Medulloblastoma Translational Research Consortium, a new research and clinical trials consortium that developed the world’s first FDA-approved personalized medicine trial for pediatric cancer. This trial is available at Rady Children’s Hospital and 13 other hospitals. Through our support of the consortium, we help to bring forward new, lower-toxicity treatments to children with high-risk cancers. For those facing the same odds as Max, this work is critically important.

Now, we are joining together with Grand Canyon University for San Diego’s inaugural Run to Fight Children’s Cancer, a 5k run/walk and one-mile family fun run to raise money for new research and treatments. The race, scheduled for Oct. 26 at NTC Park at Liberty Station, was founded in Phoenix two years ago and has raised nearly $200,000 to help young cancer patients and families in need.

I hope you will join me and many other families for this important event.

Although Max is apart from us, his spirit is ever-present. Our family, joined by an amazing group of volunteers across San Diego County, continues to work tireless to help kids fighting for their lives. On Oct. 26, we will walk and run alongside other local families and courageous children donning gold capes that signify their fight against this awful disease. With each step we take, we know we’ll be making a positive difference. — Melissa Mikulak is co-founder of San Diego-based Max’s Ring of Fire. The Run to Fight Children’s Cancer will take place at NTC Park at Liberty Station to benefit families in and around Southern California. For details, visit www.runtofightcancer.com

Youth Rugby registration open in North County On-Line Registration has opened for the San Diego Mustangs Youth Rugby Club. (www.sandiegoyouthrugby.org).

The Mustangs offer eight divisions (U8, U10, U12, U14, U16, U18 and Torrey Pines Varsity and Junior Varsity teams competing in the high school competition). Each age grade is coached by USA Rugby certified coaches who include explayers from the USA (including former USA Eagles), England, Wales, New Zealand and South Africa.

The Mustangs Club also administers, manages and coaches the Torrey Pines teams in the High School division and brings these players along with players from Cathedral Catholic High School and other local high schools together for a “club” season after their high school seasons are complete.

Mustangs teams draw players from all over San Diego County, and practice in the Carmel Valley area.

Matches take place throughout San Diego County, with tournaments outside the county for older

teams. Practice begins in December, and the regular season runs from January – March for the U8 – U14 ages, and from February to April for the U16 and U18 age grades.

“An important part of the Mustangs Program is our College Outreach Program,” says Club President David Pool, who is originally from New Zealand and played rugby for 35 years, including a Korean tour with U.S. powerhouse Life University, “This program was developed in large part because our U16/U18 coaches have numerous connections to high-level college programs in the United States, including Cal-Berkeley, Saint Mary’s, Stanford, UC-Santa Barbara, and San Diego State.We progress players up the ranks through each division, and by the time we graduate our seniors, many have an opportunity to pursue a college degree through the connections made by rugby. In 2012 we had 13 players graduate out of our program and 12 are playing rugby while attending college this fall.”

Rugby is the fastest growing team sport in the United States. It is a physical and spectacular sport that has a twocenturies old tradition of character building and sportsmanship. Rugby is the contact team sport of choice in many countries around the world. The Rugby World Cup is the third most watched televised sports event in the World after the Olympics and the Soccer World Cup. The seven-a-side version of the game, known as Rugby Sevens, has been admitted into the Olympic Games from Rio de Janeiro in 2016 onwards.

San Diego Youth Rugby is affiliated with USA Rugby.

For more information, contact David Pool, president, at 858-405-0271;dpool@codatherapeutics.com; Bill Leversee, director of coaching, bill.leversee@gmail.com; or Tim Pickwell, public relations (858) 342-7856; tpickwell@roadrunner. com. Or visit the Mustangs website: www.sandiegoyouthrugby.org, or the Southern California Youth Rugby website, www.socalyouthrugby.org which also includes High School League Standings.

GOOGLE continued from 1 that inhibit a viral protein called the “endonuclease.� “I’ve always liked doing research as a way to contribute to society,�

Chen said. “I was looking for a new science fair project and I remembered vividly how H1N1 went viral in 2009. San Diego had some of the first cases in the U.S. Since then, I’ve been keeping a tab on influenza news. The more I read about it, the more I saw it as an urgent issue.�

The Google Science Fair had thousands of entrants from 120 countries.

Judges first selected 90 regional finalists, and then 15 finalists were selected, with five from each age group, ages 13-14, 15-16 and 17-18.

All of the finalists visited Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, Calif., to present their projects to a panel of international scientists for a final round of judging. “One thing I really like about research is that I get to feel like I’m really making a difference,� Chen said. “Even though I’m just

in high school, I can say that. I’m doing work that will make the world a better place.�

Next year’s competition opens for entries in January 2014.

PROJECT continued from 1 road would be about two years away from the beginning of construction, with a year tagged for Coastal Commission approvals and a year on engineering.

The Sept. 26 motion was met with applause from a number of horsepark supporters in the audience.

The sole dissenting votes on the board were by members Manjeet Ranu and Steven Ross. “To try and redesign it again, I think it would be somewhat disingenuous to the process,� Ranu said. “It has been a substantial process.

[Developer] Black Mountain Ranch [LLC] and the city have been responsive and I’m not sure anymore analysis paralysis is going to get us results.�

While she voted in favor of denying the widening, board member Anne

Harvey agreed that the developer, city and neighbors have a very long history on this project. “These guys have tried so hard to please us, for us to say now ‘Nah we don’t like it’ sets a bad precedent,�

Harvey said.

White said although it is true that they have spent a lot of time on the project, the issues with the horsepark are only coming to the forefront now. The developers had been working with the landowners — the 22nd District Agricultural Association — but they hadn’t worked with the trainers who lease and work at the park.

The Carmel Valley planning board last saw the widening project at its Aug. 22 meeting, but with a quorum of only nine of the group’s 16 members present, the planning board could not get a passing motion.

The project has been in the works since 2003, and was initially submitted to the city in 2005. Dale Greenhalgh, of developer Black Mountain Ranch LLC, said he has been before the Carmel Valley board five times over the last 10 years.

Carmel Valley resident Jan Fuchs, who was on the original task force, said they asked several times why the widening was necessary as the road doesn’t go anywhere to the east, stopping

after the El Camino Real interchange and continuing as two lanes into Rancho Santa Fe. As Greenhalgh said, the road serves a regional purpose, which is part of the reason why Black Mountain Ranch is contributing funds toward its construction.

The existing two-lane road is built for a maximum of 10,000 average daily trips (ADT), but the current volume is almost double that at 17,000 ADTs, according to city traffic engineer Farah Mahzari at last month’s meeting. They are projecting 27,000 ADTs by 2030 and a four-lane road has a capacity for 30,000 so they are hoping that the widened Via de la Valle will be able to carry that capacity to and from the I-5 freeway.

If the widening had to be done, Fuchs said the task force worked to ensure that it would be as narrow as possible through that “rural� area. “It was going to be double the size,� Fuchs said. “Given the choice, we felt good that we changed the whole nature of the road the city was going to build. In terms of sheer size, that was a victory.�

As planned, the road will be widened to 60 feet, smaller than the city standard of 84 feet, from curb to curb. There will also be a four-foot-wide median and a

new six-foot-wide bike lane on both sides of the road.

The majority of the road will be widened on the south side due to the steep bluffs on the north side. On the south side there will also be a decomposed granite walking path in the parkway, a 10-foot area behind the curb, adjacent to the bike lane.

There will also be a new signal with the widening at Via del Canon.

At the Aug. 22 meeting, the board advised Greenhalgh to involve horsepark representatives in the process.

Since that time, Greenhalgh has met with 14 trainers. “They were clearly concerned with how it will impact their business and they were concerned as horses are more sensitive to traffic than people,� Greenhalgh said.

Each of the trainers has an area that they work in and each wanted a wall between the park and the road, however, Greenhalgh said the Coastal Commission has issues with the walls because it is concerned with vistas and driving views.

A lot of the comments from horsepark trainers were also about events and maintaining access during the construction period, Greenhalgh said. He said there are ways to do that with blackout dates with contractors. “There are events con-

stantly,� said resident Ken Farinsky, whose children use the horsepark. “To try and work around them will be next to impossible.�

Board member Christian Clews had been the strongest advocate for the horsepark and Via de la Valle-adjacent businesses Mary’s Tack and Feed and All Creatures Animal Hospital, and how they would be negatively affected by a widening that he felt is not needed. “(The traffic) is not that big of a problem,� Clews said. “Don’t endanger our safety, our livelihood and our lifestyle.�

Clews said the horses were there first, urbanization happened and it has already been encroached upon. He pointed out that horses are sight and sound animals, and that people of all different skill sets are riding in the horsepark — he said having the road closer to the riding arena — having semi trucks going right by — would not be a good plan.

Ross said the word “encroachment� might not be accurate and asked how much land is actually being taken from the horsepark or businesses. Greenhalgh said at maximum, up to 40 feet of land will be taken, but all the work will be done in the right of way. However, as a result, the buildings and horsepark facilities will be much closer to the road.

FOUNDATION continued from page 21 events a success. The annual Grandparents and Special Friends Day is an opportunity for grandparents and visitors to experience the extraordinary environment of the school. Coffee and pastries are generously donated

by The Inn for this special day as well. Gordon MacMitchell, general manager of The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe states, “the owners and management of The Inn feel it is very important to support our local school and children’s education.”

Mossy Toyota generously provided the funds needed for an excellent marketing program for the RSFEF, enabling its members to share their vision of excellence with the school community.

Frank Financial has made a generous contribution of underwriting the informational video presented at Back-to-School nights, and is also underwriting Field Day for the students.

Other local businesses, including Caffé Positano and Rancho Sandwich, owned

by Tim Cusac, provide coffee and pastries to many parent and staff functions throughout the year, including the Back-to- School Coffee, Halloween Carnival, and Leadership Team meetings, among other events.

Delicias Restaurant hosts an elegant dinner for families of the school, from which proceeds are donated to the RSFEF. “As a neighborhood restaurant, we want to find ways to connect with the community. We get many charity requests every week for many different causes; we felt that to close the restaurant to the public for a night and be able to commit to raising significant funds is important. The Education Foundation is what makes the Ranch a special place to live and we are committed to helping,” said Owen Perry, owner of Delicias Restaurant.

The RSFEF also gratefully recognizes the food and beverages donated and discounted for RSFEF events.

Nothing Bundt Cakes and Thyme in the Ranch provide delicious food and drink for Staff Appreciation Lunches, and Village Market and Brett’s BBQ donate ice and discounted food for various school events. Something Homemade donated food and services for the Newcomers Cocktail Party, and have traditionally supplied the back-to-school lunch.

All are greatly appreciated resources and contribute to the success of the RSFEF and the spirit of “it takes a village to raise a child.”

The RSFEF is committed to its goal of providing the

necessary resources to enable R. Roger Rowe to function as one of the finest public schools in the State of California and beyond. It takes the commitment and resources from the surrounding community to make that goal a reality, and the RSFEF extends its deepest appreciation to its corporate sponsors for their generosity in contributing to the extraordinary educational experience enjoyed by the students of the R. Roger Rowe School.

MEET continued from page 1 Club, which actually runs the current summer race meet at the venue — still must receive approval of the California Coastal Commission before the new fall race meet can be added to the schedule.

The Coastal Commission is tentatively set to consider a permit for the fall race meet as part of a larger permit for fairgrounds operations at its November meeting in Newport Beach.

This winter, the fairgrounds and Thoroughbred Club are widening the racetrack’s turf course to allow more horses to race at one time, which would also be required to lure the Breeder’s Cup. The proposed dates for the 2014 fall race meet are Nov. 5 through Dec. 7. The current summer race meet runs from late July through early September.

The next RSF Community Center Supper Club event is Oct. 12.

RSF Community Center announces Fall Supper Club Dinner Oct. 12 The Rancho Santa Fe Community Center has announced a third dinner in its 2013 Supper Club series to be held at a private residence in Rancho Santa Fe.

“We really enjoy hosting these events and each one is so unique. The Community Center does a great job bringing RSF residents together in ways that foster friendships and the Supper Club dinners are a wonderful example of that.”

The event is open to Rancho Santa Fe residents and will include wine, non-alcoholic beverages, dinner and live music. Tickets are limited and must be purchased through the Community Center at lease one week prior to the event.

PERMITS continued from page 1 a compromise calling for the 22nd DAA to restore its south overflow lot — a 9.5acre parcel along the San Dieguito River used for parking during the fair and horse racing meets — to wetlands habitat. In exchange, the fairgrounds will be allowed to continue using its east overflow lot near Interstate 5 for parking, seasonal pumpkin and Christmas tree sales, and other activities.

The commission will consider this permit at its meeting on Oct. 11 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in San Diego.

The second permit involves activities and projects on the main fairgrounds property, bringing all fairgrounds events into compliance with the California Coastal Act. That permit is tentatively scheduled for the commission’s November meeting in Newport Beach.

The second permit application also contains a request for a fall horse racing meet starting in November 2014, which would be in addition to the current summer race meet.

On Friday (Sept. 27), Coastal Commission staff posted its report for the Oct. 11 meeting, in which it recommends approval of the first permit involving the south and east overflow lots.

The report said the use of fill in the east overflow lot violates the Coastal Act policy of protecting wetlands, but denial of the permit would also have negative effects. For example, said the report, the 22nd DAA would not be required to restore the south overflow lot.

“As there are no less impactful feasible alternatives, the Commission, utilizing conflict resolution, finds that on balance, approval of the permit as conditioned represents the greatest protection of coastal resources,”

TRACK Next month, phase two begins on the baseball and softball fields, lacrosse and soccer fields, concession stands and the school’s new stadium.

Copeland said the stadium will be completed in time for the beginning of the 2014-15 school year. The class of 2015 will be the first to hold graduation in the new stadium.

Altogether, the improvements represent a $20 million undertaking.

Eric Dill, associate superintendent, said there were some questions about why so many Prop AA resources were being devoted to CCA, the newest school in the district. He said even though the school is new and is the model vision for what they would like to ac-

concluded the report.

22nd DAA board president Adam Day said the permit applications are intended to finally resolve bad blood and acrimony between the two state agencies that had simmered for decades. Efforts to reach a compromise over alleged Coastal Act violations by the fairgrounds began in earnest after a slate of new 22nd DAA board members was appointed by Gov. Jerry Brown in 2011, and Day was elected board president. Day worked with board member David Watson, a land-use attorney, on negotiating the settlement.

“Everything we’re asking the Coastal Commission to do is completely consistent with the settlement agreement that we have with them,” said Day. “We need these permits to continue to operate our year-round activities as well as to host a fall (horse racing) meet.”

The 22nd DAA is agreeing to undertake a number of steps to protect the environment, such as installing a state-of-the-art storm water runoff system, which would be needed if the fall race meet is approved, said Watson.

That’s because the fall meet would take place during San Diego’s rainy season.

“This is a really good deal for the environment and a good deal for the fair. And it demonstrates that the fair can operate under the Coastal Act,” Watson said. “What these permits are is the final implementation of the agreement reached in the consent orders. They’re the last steps in what has been a two-year process to resolve all these issues.”

But some believe the 22nd DAA should do more to protect sensitive wetlands.

Third District County Supervisor Dave Roberts, who served on the Solana Beach City Council before his election to the Board of Supervisors last year, said a report commissioned by the 22nd DAA shows that some of the east lot should be designated as wetlands, and the district’s

continued from page 1 complish in all district schools, the campus was not yet addressing the needs of 800 student athletes and 21 sports teams.

“This is what needed to be done to bring CCA in parity with the rest of our school sites,” Dill said.

Parent Karen Dillen, vice president of athletic programs for the CCA Foundation, reflected how in previous years, teams would experience “field envy” when traveling to play at other schools. Canyon Crest’s old field had a “pronounced crown” at the center, which cut off the view of players’ feet and by the end of the season there were dustbowls in front of the goals.

There is very little threat of dustbowls now on the turf field. And while, for now, Copeland said students

parking study determined offsite locations could handle overflow during fairgrounds events.

“By law, I don’t know how the Coastal Commission can approve their application for the (east) overflow lot and not destroy wetlands,” said Roberts.

Roberts is also a member of the board of directors of the San Dieguito River Park Joint Powers Authority, which oversees a linear park that stretches from Julian to the coast at Del Mar. The JPA board’s official position is that the fairgrounds should not be able to use either overflow lot for parking, except for the east lot during the fair and summer race meet.

Roberts said he would like the fairgrounds to compromise with environmentalists by agreeing to use only part of the east overflow lot for parking, and set the most environmentally sensitive portion aside as open space.

“My goal is to find consensus, I want to help,” said Roberts.

But Day said the agreement has already reduced the fairground’s parking capacity by 20 percent. “We felt the pain at this year’s fair,” he said. The fairgrounds will absorb the loss of parking through aggressive traffic and parking management, such as encouraging visitors and employees to use public transportation and carpooling whenever possible.

Setting aside more land from the east lot, he said, would be impractical both financially and in terms of impact on the fairgrounds’ parking capacity, and is not environmentally necessary. Such a requirement would unravel the “finely woven tapestry of competing needs and interests” represented by the agreement with the Coastal Commission.

Watson said the east overflow lot does not meet the federal definition of wetlands.

Through the agreement, “I think we’ve satisfied all requirements for true wetlands and true marsh,” he said.

still have to climb to the top of a dirt hill to get a bird’seye view to root for the home team, by this time next year they will be sitting comfortably in the new stadium.

At the dedication ceremony, appreciation was given to the parents for supporting and contributing to the foundation, as well as for their support of Prop AA. “We’re celebrating what can be created when a community comes together for the greater good,” said SDUHSD Board President Barbara Groth.

Groth also gave special recognition to former district superintendent Ken Noah, whom she said was indispensable in taking the big step in even thinking about the possibility of a construction bond.

Horizon Prep Dad’s Day The Smartphones and schedules were set aside for picnic and playtime at Horizon Prep’s first Dad’s Day of the 2013-2014 school year! Dads (and Granddads!) turned out in droves to kick off the Horizon Prep tradition. Dad’s Day is held several times throughout the school year in order to give Dads multiple opportunities to work one — or more — into their schedule.

Students become hosts as their Dads join them for lunch and then jump into recess. This year, Coach Matt Roy introduced Ga-ga ball to the Dad’s Day crowd: it became an instant hit! The students were already playground experts in the game, and quickly taught their Dads the lay of the Ga-ga ball pit.

2013 Arroyo Cup

BY TONY GIROLAMI The Arroyo pond was the site of the 2013 Arroyo Cup model boat regatta which tool place on Saturday, Sept. 20.

The event, sponsored by the Rancho Santa Fe Outdoors Club (ROC), featured 18 entrants each demonstrating unique design ideas and highly creative construction methods. The only restriction imposed on the participants: no battery or gas-operated motors.

Prior to taking to the water, the boat builders displayed their creations to the assembled crowd of friends and parents who delighted in the creative design and material use concepts. From the start it was obvious that the imagination was in full flex. The largely “kid-made” vessels dis-

played a whole array of propulsion designs from classic sails, to solar powered motors, from rubber band propellers to rocket engines. Yes. Rocket engines. The hull designs ranged from wooden catamarans, a mono-hulled Greek trireme with multiple plastic oarsmen. Top design honors were awarded to Trevor Hand for his ingenious boat “Thunder Lightning” consisting of a paint pan duct taped to two plastic rain gutter pontoons and powered with an Estes rocket taped to the middle of the boat.

No event would be complete without the list of honorees. Here are a few folks who deserve special recognition: •Best Design: Trevor Hand for “Thunder Lightning” •Most Original Name: Sophia Fox for her boat “Kate

Lon Edis Pudah” •Distance Award: Anaclaire Fox for “Rocketeer” •Classic Disaster Award: Owen and Jewel Perry for their a classic sloops that loved to capsize •Erie Canal Award: Lila for “Purple Power” a steam powered, olive oil-spilling “putt-putt” boat reminiscent of barge traffic on the Erie Canal.

San Diego Symphony’s annual gala and concert to raise funds for music education

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY KRISTINA HOUCK When music programs are cut in schools throughout San Diego, the San Diego Symphony provides access to music. From free concerts to hands-on workshops, the nonprofit organization reached roughly 65,000 students with its education and outreach programs last year.

“With the loss of funding for music education in public schools, it really is up to organizations like the San Diego Symphony to be able to bring the music to the children,” said Megan Pogue, the symphony’s vice president of business development. “We want to keep music education alive and be a great resource in San Diego.”

Designed to bring music and music education to thousands of students, programs include the Young Artist Competition, which rewards promising young talent, as well as several outreach programs that allow students to meet musicians and participate in interactive ensemble performances.

The symphony’s annual gala, OPUS 2013: The Roaring ’20s, on Oct. 12 celebrates the start of the season while raising funds for the organization’s education and outreach programs.

“If children don’t get exposed to music, then the art form has the possibility of dying. Playing an instrument and listening to music has also been shown to increase test scores in children,” said Pogue, who noted Rancho Santa Fe residents and gala chairs Hélène and George Gould hope to raise $1 million during the event. Last year, 200 people attended the concert and raised more than $500,000, Pogue said.

Led by Music Director Jahja Ling, OPUS 2013 will feature pianist Kevin Cole performing American composer and pianist George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” with the 84-member San Diego Symphony.

OPUS 2013 will begin with a pre-concert cocktail party and dinner soiree at the University Club. Following the concert at Symphony Hall, there will be an after-party with live music, dancing and casino games at the University Club.

Local filmmaker shines spotlight on Parkinson’s disease in documentary •Film will be shown at San Diego Film Festival on Oct. 5 bin has a simple goal: “For those with Parkinson’s, we want them to be inspired.”

“Ride With Larry” will be screened on Saturday, Oct. 5, at 3:30 p.m. at the ArcLight Cinemas in La Jolla. A reception will follow the screening.

For more in the San Diego Film Festival, visit www. sdfilmfest.com.

BY ROB LEDONNE “Ride With Larry,” a documentary on Parkinson’s disease premiering Saturday, Oct. 5, as part of the San Diego Film Festival, is the brainchild of a local filmmaker who knows how it impacts people all too well.

Local resident Andrew Rubin is hoping to raise more awareness for the disease after he saw its impact on members of his own family.

“My dad has Parkinson’s and so did his father and a cousin of mine. It’s something that’s prevalent on his side of the family,” he explained. “What’s really important for us is for people with Parkinson’s to see this film.”

The documentary focuses on Larry Smith, a current San Diego resident who has advanced Parkinson’s.

However, Smith’s lifestyle is that of an athletic and active man, which isn’t a typical view of the disease.

“Larry is probably one of the most advanced Parkinson’s patients you’ll ever meet,” Rubin said. “Personally, it kind of hit me pretty hard. He’s endlessly positive.”

The centerpiece of “Ride with Larry” is a 300mile bike ride Larry takes across South Dakota, which Rubin says is part of the most inspiring facet of Larry’s life.

“A lot of the time, what happens with patients is that you get a diagnosis and you’re told there’s no cure, which doesn’t give people a lot of hope,” Rubin said.

“But then you look at what Larry is doing; his message really resonates beyond the disease. We want to show that this could be anyone’s life who is struggling with the disease.”

Along with Rubin, the producers of “Ride With Larry” include industry veteran Stephen Nemeth, along

with Josh Haywood, who produced and directed various series for MTV. Rubin explained that when the crew returned from filming in South Dakota, they edited a trailer and held a Kickstarter fundraiser to try to raise additional funds for the movie.

“We not only hit our $50,000 goal, but got $63,000,” Rubin said. “At the time, we were the most funded documentary Kickstarter had ever had.

The premiere of “Ride With Larry” coincides nicely with the recent NBC premiere of “The Michael J Fox Show,” a sitcom built around the title star’s struggle with Parkinson’s disease.

All of the latest news and awareness is only good for people struggling with the disease, said Rubin, who’s trying to shine a spotlight on various Parkinson’s treatments, including medical marijuana (which is highlighted in the film) and exercise.

“The more active you are with Parkinson’s, the better you will feel. When you exercise, it produces the same effect as the medication that they’re given,” Rubin said. “It’s not just endorphin’s and weight loss... you’ll end up fighting the disease.”

So far, the filmmakers have been showered with positive response over the documentary with its subject matter having a “significant impact” on audiences, not only in San Diego but around the world. Last weekend, it screened at the South Dakota International Film Festival and it’s also been shown at Mexico’s Puebla International Film Festival, the Monterrey International Film Festival and, later this month, will be screened at the Orlando International Film Festival.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Nature Designs Landscaping beautifies region for 30 years

BY KRISTINA HOUCK With just a truck and a wheelbarrow, Steve Jacobs launched Nature Designs Landscaping in 1983. The 21-yearold college student returned from Cal Poly Pomona to his family home in Escondido every weekend to work.

Celebrating 30 years in business, the now Vista-based company has nearly 50 employees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We stand behind our work,â&#x20AC;? Jacobs said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Integrity is really big with me and with our staff. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re honest and we strive for perfection.â&#x20AC;?

From obtaining permits to developing design plans, Nature Designs Landscaping offers a wide range of services, including landscape design, construction, maintenance and estate services. The company has irrigation and sustainability experts, a certified arborist, and licensed general building, landscape and pool contractors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We come up with all the solutions to their needs,â&#x20AC;? said Jacobs, who earned his landscape contractor license in 1988 and expanded it to include pool and spa installation in 2006.

Jacobs has enjoyed working outside ever since he was a child. He recalled working in the grove and planting a vegetable garden on his familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2-acre property in Escondido when he was young. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because it was such a big property, I spent every waking minute outside,â&#x20AC;? said Jacobs, who noted his father, a Bronx native, moved to California to raise a family so his children could play outdoors.

After enrolling in a landscaping class in high school, Jacobs decided he wanted to make a living by working outdoors. He went to community college before transferring to Cal Poly Pomona in 1983. While earning a bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in ornamental horticulture as well as a degree in irrigation and drainage design, Jacobs traveled from Pomona to Escon-

Nature Designs Landscaping has obtained more than 50 design, construction and maintenance awards for a number of projects, including a project at a 60,000-square-foot Alpine home where he and his team had 10 weeks to transform a backyard into a wedding site.

The project incorporated a water feature, stonework, pathways, pavilions, plants and trees. If the team didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish in time, the company would be docked $1,500 each addition-

Jacobs said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But even with all of these challenges, we ended up with an award-winning beautiful project and they had a really nice wedding. It was a great team effort, including the client.â&#x20AC;?

With â&#x20AC;&#x153;Landscapes for Lifeâ&#x20AC;? as a tagline, Jacobs said he wants his company to continue to have a great reputation for service and quality. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a company thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to produce a long-lasting landscape that improves our clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; quality of life and gives them an outdoor living space,â&#x20AC;?

From victim to advocate: ‘Brave Miss World’ documentary focuses on one woman’s journey

BY KRISTINA HOUCK Just weeks after being brutally attacked and raped, Linor Abargil was crowned Miss World 1998.

Since then, Abargil has used the spotlight to be a voice for other victims and fight against sexual violence. Her journey was most recently chronicled in the documentary “Brave Miss World,” which makes its Southern California debut Oct. 5 at the San Diego Film Festival.

“She was so riveting and so compelling that I agreed to take the journey with her, not knowing what a whirlwind it would become,” said director and producer Cecilia Peck, daughter of the late actor and La Jolla native Gregory Peck.

Abargil briefly modeled in Milan after being crowned Miss Israel. Then 18 years old, she became homesick and her modeling agency put her in touch with travel agent Uri Shlomo to book her a flight home. He told her there were no flights available from Milan, but offered to drive her to Rome instead. This began what she describes in the film as “the longest hours of my life.”

Shlomo tied her up with rope and masking tape, and stabbed and raped her repeatedly. He put a bag over her head and strangled her. Abargil managed to escape, which is detailed in the film.

“She was so unashamed in speaking about rape. I had never listened to anyone talk about it like that,” Peck said.

“From the beginning, she said, ‘Why should I be ashamed?

The fault was his, not mine.’ I realized that that kind of courage and refusal to blame herself or be ashamed could help a lot of other women who might be hiding it or keeping it inside.”

From South Africa townships to U.S. college campuses, the documentary follows Abargil as she reaches out to other survivors.

Although Shlomo was eventually exposed as a serial rapist and received a 16-year conviction, Peck points out that Abargil’s trauma is never far behind her. Her trauma resurfaces during the film when her rapist comes up for parole.

“She was constantly triggered by meeting with other survivors,” Peck said. “It was extremely hard on her. She of-

Courtesy photos ten had to shut down filming and she had to seek emergency therapy, but she always came back and wanted to persevere and continue. That kind of courage was very inspiring to us as filmmakers.”

“Brave Miss World,” which took nearly five years to complete, debuted in June at AFI Docs, a documentary film festival by the American Film Institute in Washington, D.C. The film will be screened at a number of other festivals, including the Chicago International Film Festival and the Mumbai Film Festival.

“Brave Miss World” will be released in Los Angeles and New York theaters in

December, Peck said. The film’s team, which is also considering two television broadcast offers, is set to launch an educational and community screening series across the country in January.

“The film, to me, is about Linor’s call to action. It’s also

about one woman’s journey from being a teenaged victim of a rape crime to an empowered lawyer and activist,” Peck said. “I think the film is full of hope for survival and for healing. It takes a lot of work, but you can go on with your life as long as you seek help. I just hope that message is conveyed.”

The screening begins at 6 p.m. on Oct. 5 at ArcLight La Jolla, 4425 La Jolla Village Dr. San Diego. A Q&A session with Peck will follow the screening.

Historian to discuss 20th century art in new series Art historian Derrick Cartwright, Ph.D., will present a four-part lecture series titled, “20th Century Art in the Americas,” 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays, Oct. 8, 15, 22 and 29 at Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, 1008 Wall St., La Jolla.

In an advance, Cartwright writes, “The history of 20th-century art is complex. This 100year period was marked by dramatic events in political, economic, cultural, and virtually all other spheres. This series concentrates on the United States and Latin America as sources of vital representational change.

“In addition to considering major examples of painting, sculpture, photography and installation art, the course will consider critical debates and theoretical models for understanding the challenging imagery that emerged during this tumultuous time.”

Among the many works to be discussed will be the contributions of Marsden Hartley, Jackson Pollock, Jacob Lawrence and Eva Hesse.

Tickets for the series are $50 for members and $70 for non-members. Individual lectures are $14 and $19. Reservations can be made at (858) 454-5872 or www.ljathenaeum.org/lectures

are closed-minded or prejudiced. I have been fortunate to travel the world – to build hospitals in Uganda, homes in Mexico and to speak about my work in countless other countries, and if there is one thing I have learned, it is that you can never judge someone until you have walked in their shoes. I always encourage my children to keep an open mind and to take in every situation with a positive attitude.

What is your most-prized possession?

My family. Nothing else would matter without them.

What do you do for fun?

I love running, swimming and pretty much anything related to exercise. I also love traveling with my family. Some of my favorite trips have been to Jerusalem for all three of our kids’ bar and bat mitzvahs, our safari through South Africa, and a peaceful getaway my wife and I recently took to the Maldives.

What is your philosophy of life?

Tikkun olam, the Hebrew saying “to repair or heal the world.” I have a strong philosophy of giving back, and I feel that every person has a duty to do his or her part to make the world a better place. I truly enjoy working with a variety of nonprofits, like the

Challenged Athletes Foundation, to give back and nurture our communities. All of my children have been working with me to support CAF since they were young.

At just 8 years old, my son ran in CAF’s annual San Diego Triathlon Challenge at the La Jolla Cove, and I know running side-byside with “One Arm” Willie Stewart and hundreds of other challenged athletes, some even younger than he, had a significant impact on him and how he now aspires to live his life.

What would be your dream vacation?

I recently, and by accident, stumbled across details about an exquisite private jet trip around the world. Three weeks, all the top destinations and accommodations, dining and sights they offer. While I, in part, wish I hadn’t teased myself by learning about the trip (I can’t seem to get it out of my head), the other part of me would love to treat my wife of almost 23 years to a once-ina-lifetime trip like this – she deserves it.

Rehab United strives to help people walk, ride or run to find a cure for Multiple Sclerosis

BY KAREN BILLING With his sports medicine and physical therapy practice, Rehab United Co-founder and President Bryan Hill has made it a mission to help people walk, ride or run to find a cure for Multiple Sclerosis.

Hill is a participant and head coach for the Bike MS Bay to Bay Tour on Oct. 19 and 20, as well as the coach for MS Rockstars, whose members just began training to race the Rock n’ Roll Marathon and Half Marathon in Arizona in January.

Additionally, Hill developed a training plan and helped coach walkers in the MS Society’s 50-mile, 3-day Challenge Walk that came through Del Mar last Friday and Saturday.

The walk raised $741,562.

Hill was out during the three-day walk cheering people on.

“To me the most rewarding thing is to listen to the people you’re impacting,” Hill said. “At these events people who have MS talk to you about how much they appreciate what you’re doing. It [means more] if you get to see families really touched by it.”

Rehab United specializes in physical therapy, massage, nutrition and personal training. Physical therapy is its dominant service, from treating patients post-operation to simple injuries.

Hill, a former professional soccer player, started Rehab United with his brother Sean. The pair made it their personal goal to open their own practice in 1991 after Bryan broke his leg in a soccer game and required extensive surgery and physical therapy. Sean worked with him through his injury in the hospital and they both decided they wanted to be physical therapists.

Their dream of opening their own practice came true 12 years and one day after Bryan’s injury, in 2003. They celebrated their 10th anniversary in August.

Carmel Valley (RU2) is one of three Rehab United locations, the branch in Kearny Mesa was their first to open and they also have one in La Mesa (RU3).

They recently started their own foundation, the Fit For Life Foundation, that promotes a healthy environment for kids and has a goal to empower and uplift kids to make positive and healthy choices.

Rehab United’s Bryan Hill (left) is the head coach for Bike MS and MS Rockstars.

Rehab United first got involved with the National MS Society’s Pacific Coast Chapter about nine years ago. The company was looking for a way to give back and selected MS as their charity as several of their patients had MS, a disease of the central nervous system which interrupts the flow of information between the brain and the body and can keep people from moving.

The first Bike MS team had six members. Now they have six teams, about 40 members combined taking part in the Bike MS Bay to Bay Tour.

Bike MS is a one-to-two-day bike tour where cyclists can opt to do 15 to 25 miles in one day or 100 and 150 miles in two days.

For the walk, bike ride and running groups, Rehab United develops training plans for the various events and hosts group workouts. All of the groups fundraise for the MS Society.

“We’ll do anything to raise money,” said Hill, admitting the men once dressed in women’s underwear and rode the mechanical bull at the Double Duece in downtown San Diego.

“To embarrass yourself for the right reasons is OK.” Rehab United’s next fundraising event for Bike MS will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 8, from 6-9 p.m. at Culture Brewing Company in Solana Beach.

“I’m really excited about working with the MS Society and building national recognition for the disease,” said Hill, noting that more recognition can lead to more funds for research and for a potential cure. “I wish it didn’t exist but because it does the goal for me is to make sure people are aware of it…People still don’t want to talk about MS, they can work somewhere for seven years without telling anyone that they have it. I want people to be comfortable to tell others that they have it and know that there’s people out there supporting their cause. We’re trying to put a stop to it, put an end to it.”

People can still sign up to participate in the MS Rockstars for the January marathon or half marathon as training has just begun.

People can also donate to Rehab United’s Bike MS team. For more information, visit rehabunited.com.

Letters/Commentary/Opinion

Rant with Randi: Times have changed

BY RANDI CRAWFORD I spoke with several moms in their mid-to-late 60s to get their perspective on parenting...then and now. I wanted to know what they did differently, and how they feel about the way that we parent our kids. This is much more than one article, but at least it’s a start. I’m not going to quote anyone directly, but I’ll paraphrase what was said to me by several different women.

In general...back then: “If you had kids, you were a mom, and you didn’t make excuses for it. In fact, you were proud that you were a mom and you didn’t need to defend yourself to other moms about what you did all day. ‘Mommy bloggers’ didn’t exist and therefore nobody was sitting behind a keyboard dishing out advice on how to be a perfect parent. Your responsibility was to raise your family. Other moms were there to support you, not judge you for everything you did wrong. We were much more of a community. Nobody had ‘nannies’ to watch our kids, we all just had each other. If one of us needed to run out to the market, we asked a friend to watch our kids and vice versa. Today, everyone feels detached and separated. Nobody wants to ask anyone else for help. We parented as more of a team with each other, the school and, for some, church. If a teacher called you in for disciplinary issues, we dealt with it. We didn’t march into the school with our lawyers threatening to sue. Kids were held accountable for their actions, period.

“From our perspective, we didn’t have “time outs”; you were put in your room, possibly without dinner, and didn’t come out until you apologized. Some of us spanked our kids, others just put the fear of God in their kids that they were going to spank them, but never did. Either way, we had respect, which is something very different than we see today. We see very little respect for elders. Parents want to be their kids’ friend. It’s incredible how much information you all share with your children today. Kids know too much about things they have no business knowing. Why do you all want to be your children’s friend? Who is in charge?”

“According to my mother-in-law, ‘Society was more important than the individual.’ This leads my husband to a phrase that brings him back to his childhood because he can hear his mother saying, ‘The world does not revolve around you.’ This is exactly the opposite of what kids are taught today, that the world does revolve around them. Nobody asked their kids what they wanted to eat (or do). What an absurd thought. You made dinner, put it on the table, and

your family ate it. If someone didn’t like what you cooked for dinner, they went to their room. They didn’t run to the pantry and grab a pre-packaged bag of extra cheesy goldfish, and a protein bar. Everyone sat down to eat and shared stories about their day.

“There was no ‘practice’ until 8 p.m. for multiple kids, cutting into ‘family time.’ Nobody was playing with technology, (because it didn’t exist), like we see today. It always shocks us (elder moms) to walk into a restaurant and see an entire family out to dinner, and every one of them is on their technology. Nobody looks at each other; nobody engages or talks, until the waitress comes to take their order. It’s the strangest phenomenon. Why go out together, if nobody is going to talk? We understand allowing the ‘little ones’ to play on the iPad so their parents can eat, but the rest of it is nonsense.

Today, it’s all about the ‘individual’ because everyone is running in different directions for their kids. We understand that things are much different today, but at some point you need to re-connect with your family and make time.

Don’t allow technology at the table. Have meals together during the week. It’s the simple things that will create the dynamic that’s missing today.”

I found these conversations fascinating and will dig much deeper each week.

The brokerage, now doing business as Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties, celebrated the transition with an open house event at one of its exclusive listings attended by agents, clients and community members.

The company’s first yard sign was presented during the event with a ribbon cutting by David Cabot, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties; Ron Peltier, chairman and CEO of HomeServices, which owns the brokerage; and Earl Lee, CEO of HSF Affiliates LLC, which operates Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.

“This is a huge honor for us,” said Cabot. “We are proud to be Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ first affiliate and we will uphold that honor with integrity and excellence. With its world-renowned name, the brand will resonate extremely well in our luxury, high-end and coastal markets and everywhere else.” For more, see story on page B18. Photos/McKenzie Images.

Prudential California Realty begins new era as Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties

BY JOE TASH Americans are quite familiar with the names of billionaire Warren Buffett, one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s richest men, and his investment company, Berkshire Hathaway.

Now, the Berkshire Hathaway name will be even more visible in San Diego County, and throughout Southern California and the central coast, as it will be found on â&#x20AC;&#x153;for saleâ&#x20AC;? signs on luxury properties.

As of Monday, Sept. 23, an established California real estate firm has taken on the prestigious companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name. Prudential California Realty, which has been owned by HomeServices of America, a Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary since 2002, became Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties.

The name change and new signage were unveiled Sept. 23 at an event held at one of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s listings, a $7.5 million, 11,970-square-foot property on Rancho Del Mar Trail in Carmel Valley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the first ones to be able to use that brand name in the real estate world. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite an honor,â&#x20AC;? said David Cabot, president and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a unique opportunity.â&#x20AC;?

With its headquarters in Carmel Valley, the company has a network of 62 offices and 3,200 agents in Southern California and the Central Coast.

Many of those agents have been with the company for a substantial portion of its 20year existence under the Prudential California Realty banner, said Cabot.

Attending the Sept. 23 event along with Cabot, agents, clients and community members were Earl Lee, CEO of HSF Affiliates LLC, and Ron Peltier, chairman and CEO of HomeServices.

California Properties focuses on the luxury market in such areas as Rancho Santa Fe, Del Mar, Carmel Valley, Solana Beach, La Jolla, Newport Beach, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades and Brentwood, said Cabot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re primarily a luxury real estate company in Southern California and we have been for two decades,â&#x20AC;? Cabot said.

That reputation includes status as one of the top five real estate brokerages in the nation, according to the company. In 2012, the company closed nearly $11 billion in sales and handled more than 14,000 transactions.

The high-end home market has improved substantially over the past 18 to 24 months, along with the overall real estate market, Cabot said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The luxury market is doing very well,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The majority of the value lost in the recession has returned in both mid-level houses and high-end houses.â&#x20AC;?

Although the high-end market in Los Angeles recovered more quickly than in San Diego, the local area has since caught up, and is now on par with both Los Angeles and Orange County, Cabot said.

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Realty is a full-service agency that offers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; along with its real estate services â&#x20AC;&#x201D; home loans, escrow, title and insurance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a one-stop shopping experience for our clients,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A client can walk into one of our officesâ&#x20AC;Ś and they never have to go anywhere else.â&#x20AC;?

Cabot is a 29-year veteran of the California real estate business. He began with Merrill Lynchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real estate arm, then worked for Coldwell Banker before moving to Prudential, where he served as broker of record, and also as president and CEO. By emphasizing the Berkshire Hathaway name, California Properties taps into a global brand, established by a powerhouse that has holdings in a number of different industries, from insurance to energy to real estate to media. Among the well-known companies that come under the Omaha, Nebraska-based Berkshire Hathaway umbrella are GEICO Auto Insurance, Ben Bridge Jeweler, Dairy Queen and Seeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Candies.

Cabot stressed that the company will continue to offer the same services with the same staff. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only significant change is the name on the door,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything else is exactly as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always been.â&#x20AC;?

He predicted the real estate community will quickly warm to the new name. California Properties is the first to take on the Berkshire Hathaway name, but the company plans to make similar changes at brokerages across the nation over the next year. Some will be company owned while others will be franchises. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it changes the field of real estate forever,â&#x20AC;? Cabot said.
