Water district approves contract for four pipeline replacement projects BY JOE TASH Santa Fe Irrigation District directors voted to award a contract for nearly $1.5 million for a package of four pipeline replacement projects, in spite of concerns that the low bid had come in 33 percent higher than an engineer’s estimate prepared for the work. The 3-2 vote to award the contract to CCL Contracting Inc. came at the board’s Thursday, Nov. 21, meeting. Directors Greg Gruzdowich and Andy Menshek voted against the motion.

Santa Fe Irrigation District talks to neighbors about consolidation BY JOE TASH One neighboring water district has no interest in merging with the Santa Fe Irrigation District, while another is open to the possibility. The issue came to the fore earlier this year, when the Santa Fe board held a workshop meeting to discuss the possibility of consolidation with its neighbors to save money. Santa Fe directors decided at their September workshop to reach out to two nearby water districts to gauge their interest. Now, the first response is back, following a Nov. 5 meeting between representatives of Santa Fe and the San Dieguito Municipal Water District, and a second meeting is set for next month. Santa Fe board president Michael Hogan reported on the discussions at the Santa Fe board’s monthly meeting on Thursday, Nov.

21. The gist of the position taken by two San Dieguito board members was that they are not interested in a full merger at this time, but would consider proposals for additional collaborations or partnerships between the two districts, said Hogan. “The emphasis was to build on small successes,” Hogan said. “I think the outcome of the meeting was very productive.” San Dieguito is a subsidiary of the city of Encinitas, and provides water to the western half of the city. San Dieguito and Santa Fe currently share joint ownership and operation of a water treatment plant. According to Bill O’Donnell, San Dieguito’s assistant general manager, his district relies on city staff for such functions as payroll, finance and risk management. See DISTRICT, page 30

R. Roger Rowe student a top five finalist in nationwide photography contest BY KAREN BILLING R. Roger Rowe sixth grader Adam Stibla was recently named a top five finalist in the Earth Science Week 2013 Photography Contest, out of hundreds of entries nationwide. The contest’s theme was “Mapping My Community” and Adam’s top-five-placing entry portrayed iconic images from all over Rancho Santa Fe, as well as a hand-drawn map of the Covenant. Adam selected scenic spots in the Ranch such as Lago Linda Lake, historic buildings and flowers in the village, the fire station, his school, a signature monument rock, the RSF Golf Club, the well-loved trails and even a hot air balloon launch. Adam said part of the reason he entered the contest was to get extra credit in his science class with teacher Tanya Baumgardner, but he also had other motives. “I really love my community, it’s really beautiful,” said Adam. “I also did it for my mom because I really love her. She encourages me a lot and she’s always by my side and helping me.” Adam has always been interested in photography, preferring to take nature pictures using his iPad or, if he’s lucky, he gets to borrow his mom Hajnalka’s camera. “I like to take pictures of flowers when they’re wet and have little water droplets,” Adam said. For this project, Adam borrowed his mom’s camera and his parents drove around one weekend afternoon for his See STUDENT, page 30

RSF residents bring Freedom Bell to Arlington National Cemetery for Veterans Day BY KRISTINA HOUCK From retired military members to loved ones of those who were lost, about 3,000 Arlington National Cemetery visitors rang the Freedom Bell as they entered the military burial ground on Veterans Day. “Some were ringing the bell out of happiness and commemoration, others were so down, distraught and despondent, they were remembering tragedies when ringing the bell,” said Rancho Santa Fe resident Gary Bobileff. The nearly 300-pound Liberty Bell replica was cast on June 6, D-Day, incorporating steel remnants from the World Trade Center towers. The exterior of the bell displays the seal of all five branches of the U.S. military — the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard. The base of the bell is embossed with 50 stars, one for every state. “The whole purpose of the bell is to commemorate and remember all our military — past, present and future,” Bobileff said. “That’s inscribed toward the base of the bell.” Rancho Santa Fe resident Richard Rovsek came up with the concept for the bell, drawing it on a paper napkin last May. Rovsek, a former member of President Ronald Reagan’s staff, is the founder of the Spirit of Liberty Foundation, which supports men and women in the Armed Forces with an emphasis on wounded warriors and fallen heroes. Through the nonprofit organization, Rovsek and his friend Bobileff have visited troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, and held events at the Walter Reed Medical Center. This year, the pair traveled the country, displaying the bell. The Freedom Bell debuted on Flag Day, June 14, at Philadelphia’s Independence Hall. In July, it was displayed on top of the USS Midway Aircraft Carrier in San Diego, where bell ringers could get a certificate recognizing, “I rang the Freedom Bell.” The bell also appeared at the 12th anniversary of 9/11 in New York. “Every person has a different reason to ring the bell,” said Bobileff, who owns a Ferrari and Lamborghini sales, service and restoration dealership in San Diego. “Seeing people from all different walks of life with all different meanings for ringing the bell is amazing.” On Nov. 8, the bell appeared on Fox News. The New York Fire Department transported the bell to the studios. From there, the bell was transferred to the USS Olympia in Philadelphia for a ceremony on Nov. 9. It was then trans-

ferred to Valley Forge National Historical Park for a ceremony on Nov. 10, before it was transferred to Arlington National Cemetery for Veterans Day. “It was the first time in history that anything other than wreathes or flowers was allowed inside the gates of Arlington National Cemetery,” Bobileff said. “It was well received by the people in Arlington and the officials that were there.” Rovsek was asked to bring the bell back to Arlington next Veterans Day, Bobileff said. For now, the bell’s next stop is the USS Arizona Memorial in Honolulu to honor the victims of the attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, Pearl Harbor Day. “These guys are heroes. They laid their lives down for me,” Bobileff said. “I’m totally appreciative.” To learn more about the Spirit of Liberty Foundation visit, spiritoflibertyfoundation.com.

County residents who love to hike and tiny endangered birds got new spaces to stretch their feet and wings recently when San Diego County Supervisors approved adding new park land in the Rancho Santa Fe - 4S Ranch area. The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved adding 31.15 acres of land, including sensitive southern maritime chaparral and coastal sage scrub habitat, to the Lusardi Creek Preserve. The new park land will provide protected refuge for the California gnatcatcher — the 4-and-a-half-inch-long, blue-gray non-migratory songbird that is on the federal endangered species list and one of hundreds of birds, plants, animals and habitats protected under the County’s Multiple Species Conservation Program. It will also set aside valuable riparian wetland area as well as southern maritime chaparral and coastal sage scrub habitat. The acquisition will also allow new hiking trails to be created for County residents. The property in the Lusardi Creek Preserve is expected to feature new trails that will ultimately connect with the San Dieguito River Park trail system, a project that will eventually connect a trail system that stretches from Del Mar to Volcan Mountain north of Julian. — From County News Center

Local breast cancer survivor donates medical record organizers to other patients BY KRISTINA HOUCK From MRI, CT scans and blood work results, to appointment reminders and handwritten notes, local resident Robin Rady quickly acquired a variety of paperwork after she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011. “I had papers in my car, papers in my kitchen, papers in my office, papers everywhere, and I saw how quickly this could get out of hand,” said Rady, who was diagnosed and treated at the Scripps Polster Breast Care Center at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. “I created a medical records binder for myself as a way to take control of my disorganized self and bring some order to this already stressful time.” Impressed with the organized binder Rady brought to every appointment, one of her doctors asked her to share her binder at a Scripps event. This prompted her to begin assembling and donating binders for newly diagnosed breast cancer patients. “I created this binder as a way of giving back and, hopefully, other patients like me will benefit from a little organizational help,” she said. “There may have been days when I couldn’t find my car keys, but ask me for my pathology reports, and I could give them to you in two seconds flat.” With the assistance of Nurse Educator Beverly Mangerich, Rady organized a focus group with patients to learn what they wanted in their binders. Diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2012, Ashley Cadell was the first patient to receive the early edition of Rady’s binder. “When you go through cancer, it’s truly the only part of this whole process that you really can have any control over,” said Cadell, who lives in La Jolla.

Beverly Mangerich, Robin Rady and Ashley Cadell. Courtesy photo Then 38 years old, Cadell was also diagnosed and treated at the Scripps Polster Breast Care Center at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. She received the binder the day after she was diagnosed. Cadell noted that her oncologist is so used to seeing her binder that during her last appointment, he immediately started writing answers to the questions she had written on the binder’s open page. “You don’t think clearly when you’re diagnosed. It’s like a bomb has gone off in your head,” Cadell said. “This was the one area I just felt like I had control over. I’m able to keep everything in order and organized. It goes with me everywhere.” Binders include a letter from Rady, a table of contents, divider tabs, medical history form, medication timeline, notepad and other essentials for newly diagnosed breast cancer patients. The binders also include a $10 gift card to Jamba Juice. After her bilateral mastectomy, hysterectomy, two breast reconstructions and two other hospitalizations, doctors informed Rady that protein was essential to the healing process. Because chicken, turkey and other high-protein foods were unappetizing to her, she frequently ordered smoothies with a protein boost. In a year, Rady has donated about 200 binders to Scripps. Her two children and friends help Rady assemble the binders in her dining room. “I just see the stress level go down tremendously when I take new patients through the binder, because it gives them an overview of their care,” Mangerich said. Under the name metugo, which is shortened from medical records to go, Rady is now transitioning her service to a business. She hopes to expand and offer binders to even more patients. “It’s like a portable office. Even in this digital age, people still want a place for their papers,” Rady said. “There just seems to be a want and a need.” For more information about metugo, visit metugo. com.

A Life in Art: Every picture tells a story to collector Doug Simay BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT Doug Simay has spent over half his life collecting art. Now in his 60s, Simay bought his first artwork at 28, when he found that a piece he loved was actually affordable, and, for a mere month’s salary, he could own it. Currently, 57 “Selections from the Doug Simay Collection” are on view at the Oceanside Museum of Art, part of a museum-wide exhibition of landscapes. Simay’s section is titled “Outside,” which he explains in an introduction: “For me, ‘landscape’ is the pictorial plane on which ‘portraits’ exist. Take away the creatures that represent a story and what is left is my concept of landscape. A close-up of a horse is a portrait. A group of horses in a pasture is a landscape. Landscape is what is outside a protagonist.” To Simay, every picture tells a story. “I can look at a painting and read it,” he said. “It’s partly an acquired skill, from years of education, but it’s also hardwired in me; it’s how my brain operates.” Born and raised in Indio, he had a “superb” art teacher in high school, and developed a taste for making and appreciating art. He also managed to develop a taste for scuba diving, so he and his buddies drove down to La Jolla on weekend dive trips, camping in the parking lot behind the Museum of Contemporary Art. When it came time for college, he chose UC San Diego, where he could pursue a dual major in art and biology and live close to the ocean. At UC San Diego, he decided he wasn’t meant to be an avant-garde artist, and found success in the field of sub-cellular biochemistry. He went on to medical school, and spent more than 25 years in family practice, with an office on Coast Boulevard. It was as a young intern that he bought his first art-

Like all of Simay’s pieces, there’s a backstory to this one: he had to fight the San Diego Museum of Art for his right to acquire it. “They wanted it for their permanent collection, but I was there first,” he said. “They finally let me have it, and I let them show it in 1983.” From the start, Simay bought from living artists, and enjoyed cultivating relationships with them. In the late 1970s, he met Mark Quint, who had a small gallery next to Margaret’s Dry Cleaners. “I used to buy art from Mark, and when he moved downtown in the early ‘80s, I joined him, and opened my own gallery space next to his,” Simay said. The Java Coffeehouse Gallery followed, then an art-centered bookstore, and finally one large gallery, under what he called his “visual arts moniker,” SimaySpace. “We did a lot of shows by culturally significant artists and I was my best customer,” he said. In 1998, with artist Stuart Burton, Simay opened a full-fledged Art Academy in a 15,000-square-foot space across from his gallery. Under Burton, the Academy still exists, in

smaller quarters on 30th Street. Simay is now officially retired, but not from the artworld. “I can think of no finer way to spend my day than to look at art,” he said. For 40 years, he has lived in the same art-filled condo, with furniture by Dave Fobes, who designed all his gallery spaces. These days, he buys less, and travels more widely, posting photos and descriptions of his art-finds on simayspace. com. He also goes to L.A. every month, visiting 70-100 galleries in a whirlwind few days, and sharing his “Best Picks” on simayspace with hundreds of fans. “I used to feel that art speaks for itself, but people have to be educated, and that comes with communication,” he said. “My favorite works always have a quality I would call beauty, but I also favor works that combine good and evil, hope and despair, creation and destruction. “I tend to like figurative stuff because, for me, storytelling is a significant pleasure. I look at more art now, and reporting on what I see is a tremendous learning tool for me. My life has never been better!” Want to know more? • For an online look at “Outside: Selections from the Doug Simay Collection,” visit http://www.simayspace. typepad.com/photos/outside/ • To view the exhibit, visit the Oceanside Museum of Art, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays-Saturdays or 1-4 p.m. Sundays to Jan. 5 at 704 Pier View Way,Oceanside.

Q&A: Career as novelist comes to Hal Taxel in his later years Hal Taxel was born in Brooklyn, New York, the youngest of four boys. (“My poor mother,” he said.) He was an Eagle Scout and a member of the Scouts’ Order of the Arrow. He served in the U.S. Navy Aircor after graduating from New York University, where he was a reporter for the school’s newspaper, captain of the NYU national champion fencing team — a NCAA silver medalist and fencing AllAmerican. Taxel attended the University of Chicago graduate school and worked for a management consulting company specializing in newspapers and magazines. In the newspaper business in Texas, he went from Marketing Director to Sales Manager to Publisher. When that fizzled, he taught at National University and served as general manager of the La Jolla Cancer Research Foundation. He was appointed a U.S. Bankruptcy Trustee by the Justice Department and handled Chapter Seven and Eleven cases. During that time, he had a novel published, For past six years, Taxel has devoted himself to writing full time. He has had six of his novels published — all available on Amazon in print and Kindle. His latest is “Reuben’s Revenge, Crusade Against Corruption: Vol. 3.” Who or what inspires you? I’m motivated by the idea that one of my books, including one of my unpublished manuscripts will win a Pulitzer. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Indira Gahndi; Golda Meir; Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas; President of Mexico Alvaro Obregon; Dr. William Fishman, founder of the La Jolla Cancer Research Foundation (since renamed the Burnham Institute); Professor Lloyd Warner, University of Chicago; Theodore Geisel (Dr. Seuss; Dr. Diane Barbolla, archeologist (hostess. What are you currently reading? I’m re-reading David Silva, master author of international spy books. What is it you most dislike? That would be arrogant, pompous, garrulous people, who never listen and never shut up. What is your most-prized possession? I prize my freedom to write and speak without being

Hal Taxel subject to the tyranny of suppression of those rights. What do you do for fun? Diane and I are serious patrons of the arts. We have annual subscriptions to the symphony, the opera, and various theater groups. However, Diane and her mother, Edna, are into dance groups and I take a pass. When I fly solo, I play Texas Hold’em poker: I concede to being very competitive What is your motto or philosophy of life? It’s not very complicated: Never give up. Never give in.

Also, a personal, handwritten note was included in every box. (Above) A total of 104 boxes were packed on Veterans Day and mailed the next day. These care packages will be received in time for the Holidays by men and women serving in The U.S. Marine Corps and The U.S. Navy stationed overseas with The Amphibious Readiness Group.

Two noted authors coming soon to speak in La Jolla BY ASHLEY MACKIN Two distinguished authors, each with an adapted-tofilm novel to their names, will showcase their newest projects at events in La Jolla. • Amy Tan, author of “The Joy Luck Club” will discuss her new book, “The Valley of Amazement,” 7:30 p.m. Dec. 9, at the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego, 700 Prospect St. Proceeds from this event will benefit Words Alive, a reading advocacy organization. Tickets are $35 and include a copy of the book. • Fannie Flagg, author of “Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café” will sign and discuss her latest book, “The All-Girl Filling Station’s Last Reunion,” 7:30 p.m. Dec. 3 at Warwick’s Books, 7812 Girard Ave. The event is free but reserved seating is available and only books purchased at Warwick’s will be signed. Published Nov. 5, “The Valley of Amazement” is Tan’s first novel in eight years. It focuses on Violet Minturn, a half-Chinese, half-American girl in 1912 Shanghai, torn between her two cultures. The story also showcases Violet’s mother, who herself is torn between her American upbringing and love for a traditional Chinese man, and explores the courtesan culture; escorts or prostitutes for the wealthy and powerful. Tan has said a photo served to inspire the story. While reading about courtesans, Tan came across an image she said “stunned” her. “Five young women are dressed in the same clothes my grandmother is wearing in one of my favorite photographs of her … identical in every detail. I contemplated the possibility that my grandmother might have indeed been a courtesan for unknown reasons. “In my family, secrets continue to unfold and the history of our women has always been about survival, persistence

Jon Lomberg will present a public workshop about the Galaxy Garden, an outdoor garden that is a scale model of the Milky Way Galaxy, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7 at UC San Diego’s Price Center East Ballroom. The workshop is free and open to the public. The Galaxy Garden, located in Kona, Hawaii, maps stellar objects such as stars, nebulae and globular clusters to scale, using representative plant species. The vastness of the galaxy is hard to envision; a large garden provides a way to literally explore Earth’s place in the galaxy. Lomberg conceived and designed the garden, which is inspired by his famous mural “Portrait of the Milky Way.” The mural was displayed at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. This one-day workshop will explain the concept of the garden, outline how it is used to encourage science education and demonstrate hands-on teaching activities that can be done indoors or outdoors using large-scale, explorable model galaxies. The idea of building such a garden in the San Diego region will be explored. The workshop is open to the public with a voluntary $10 donation suggested. Lunch, afternoon coffee and snacks will be provided as well as all materials. For more information and to register, visit imagination.ucsd.edu/galaxygarden. Note: An additional free, public talk by Lomberg titled, “Becoming Galactic: Citizens of the Galaxy,” will be presented 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 3 at Atkinson Hall on campus. Lomberg is one of the foremost artists inspired by astronomy. His 25-year partnership with Carl Sagan produced some of the most important science-inspired art of our time, including his Emmy Award-winning work as chief artist for the original TV series, “COSMOS.” He was animation designer for the memorable opening graphics of the movie “CONTACT,” which was selected as one of the 100 Best Movie Openings of All Time.

Poems help heal author and others after loss of a spouse BY LINDA HUTCHISON When you’ve spent your life helping others, how do you help yourself when life delivers one of its worst blows, the death of a long-term, beloved spouse? If you’re local author, business consultant and social worker Dr. Natasha Josefowitz, you write a book that is very different from your previous 19. “This is my first sad book,” said Josefowitz. “I had no choice but to write it.” After her husband of 35 years, Dr. Herman Gaden, died four years ago, Josefowitz turned to writing poetry to express her intense feelings of grief. An active 87-year-old, she is often out in the world, but said that after the death of her husband, she felt alienated despite her best intentions to put on a smiling face wherever she went. “So I came home and wrote, with no thought to anyone else,” she said. “I had no idea how it would help me with my journey.” The result is a collection of almost 100 poems, “Living Without the One You Cannot Live Without: Hope and Healing after Loss.” The books is available online through Amazon.com and locally at Warwick’s. It is receiving positive responses from reviewers and those who counsel grieving people, including mental health professionals, ministers and rabbis. For Josefowitz, her 20th book is a departure from her usual subject matter. She has written many humorous books of poetry for different groups of people (family, friends, lovers) at different stages of life (mid-life, retirement, aging). A well-known business consultant and social worker, she has also written several books for women in management, including “How to Be An Effective Leader,” “You’re the Boss,” “Paths to Power,” and “16 Ways for Women to Succeed at Work.” Josefowitz describes herself as a late bloomer. Born in Paris, France to Russian Jewish parents, she came through Ellis Island in 1939 with them and grew up in Beverly Hills, where she’s in the Beverly Hills High School Hall of Fame.

Natasha Josefowitz with her late husband, Herman Gadon. She earned her bachelor’s degree in philosophy from Scripps College in Claremont, California, married and had two children. Not until she was 40 did she go back to college (Columbia) to earn a master’s degree in clinical social work and then a doctorate in social psychology at the age of 50, while living in Switzerland. It was there she met, began working with and eventually married Swiss-born Dr. Herman Gadon. Together they taught classes in business management, moving to New Hampshire, where Josefowitz taught the first class for women in management in the United States. They continued teaching after moving to La Jolla, Gadon at UCSD and Josefowitz at SDSU. A popular speaker and business consultant, Josefowitz appeared on TV shows, including “Larry King Live” and “All Things Considered,” and hosted her own radio show. Today she writes columns for local publications. Although she wrote her latest book to help herself, she

is delighted that it is helping others. “I like to make a difference,” she said. She is also using her social psychology skills to do research into how people grieve after the loss of a spouse. After interviewing 24 survivors, ages 60-90, she says she learned that people go through several steps to healing: First, there is the pre-grief of the caretaker; second is shock and numbness when a partner dies; third is disbelief, “this can’t be real”; fourth

comes when reality sets in and there is a feeling of alienation, of walking around like “half a couple”; finally, there is becoming a whole person, re-inventing oneself, with being alone the “new normal.” Not surprisingly, she sees a difference in how men and women cope with the loss of a spouse. Men don’t like to talk about it and will tell friends who have lost a wife, “don’t dwell on it.” “Men have a six-percent higher suicide rate, they’ve lost a caregiver, but within a year they are usually hooked up with a casserole,” said Josefowitz. Speaking of food, men alone usually eat takeout with their hands standing up at the kitchen sink. Women, on the other hand, like to talk through grief, and will go over and sit with a friend who has lost a husband. “And women will sit at a table and eat, even if it’s not elaborate,” said Josefowitz.

Frontline: Cancer

Individual genome sequencing will become part of any treatment BY SCOTT M. LIPPMAN Imagine trying to treat pneumonia with insulin. Pretty quickly, you’d decide that pneumonia is hard to treat or insulin isn’t much of a drug. Neither conclusion would be true, of course. Pneumonia is effectively treated with antibiotics. Biosynthetic insulin saves the lives of millions of diabetics daily. The point, as my colleague Dr. Razelle Kurzrock often says, is that a drug’s effectiveness depends upon matching it to the right disease or target. This might seem obvious, but often it is not the case. New cancer drugs and therapies, for example, have long been developed in large, lengthy, expensive clinical trials where success is measured by improvements that last only a few weeks. What happens to drugs and treatments that don’t have a widespread effect but do provide deep, perhaps profound, benefit to a few patients? Typically, they’re abandoned. The overarching goal is to create therapeutics with the broadest, most-profitable bang for the buck, not necessarily therapeutics with the greatest efficacy. Drugs and treatments that help only a few patients are considered inefficient and costprohibitive. They are orphaned and often forgotten. This hard reality of medical science is nowhere more apparent than in cancer, a villain that morphs into hundreds of henchmen. There are more than 200 types of cancer — from breast cancer to Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. Each type presents its own challenges. A treatment that works in some patients won’t in others, even if they have the “same” cancer type. As I’ve mentioned in previous columns, personalized cancer medicine is a fundamentally different approach to addressing this challenge. It fashions therapies and medicines based upon the precise, particular circumstances and needs of each patient. It’s one reason why individual genome sequencing will become, in the not-too-distant future, a routine part of any treatment. With a detailed clinical, social, genetic, genomic and environmental biography of each patient, doctors can more precisely tailor treatment to each patient.

Dr. Scott Lippman This is medicine matched down to the molecule. To achieve this kind of precision requires serious basic research. Massive cancer genome sequencing efforts by government-funded consortia, such as The Cancer Genome Atlas and the International Cancer Genome Consortium, reveal a dauntingly complex landscape of DNA sequence changes in tumor cells. It turns out that tumors from patients with the same cancer can look completely different at the genomic scale. Clinicians and researchers need to think differently about how to diagnose and treat cancer. They must think genomically. Our understanding of the human genome is still in its infancy, but early results indicate that personalizing drugs based on the list of DNA alterations in a tumor can be very successful. Clinicians, basic scientists and bioinformatics researchers across the mesa are tackling this challenge together. They come from The Scripps Research Institute, the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, J. Craig Venter Institute, UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center and the San Diego Supercomputer Center, which houses some of the most advanced computing resources in the world. Research resources at all of these institutions, such as cell sorters to isolate rare cancer stem cells and highthroughput machines to sequence tumor-cell DNA, are integral to this effort. This work in cancer genome sequencing will be invaluable to us in building a robust, world-class system that matches each new cancer patient with the latest molecular technologies and therapeutics most likely to achieve the best, fastest results. Quick intervention is critical. More than 90 per-

cent of all cancer deaths are due to metastasis, the spreading of cancer from its original tumor site. The impetus is to find what works based upon individual patients, not upon broad cancer types. It is essential to design a protocol that makes every patient a clinical trial of one. Dr. Kurzrock has developed just such a protocol, called PREDICT, or Profilerelated Evidence Determining Individualized Cancer Therapy. She is implementing such a protocol at Moores Cancer Center. Before coming to San Diego, Dr. Kurzrock had earned wide acclaim for developing one of the largest and best phase 1 clinical trials programs in the nation at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Hallmarks of that program were innovative clinical trials with new, targeted therapies, and matching patients with drugs based on their molecular profile. Now she is building on this effort in the new Center for Personalized Cancer Therapy, a major initiative of Moores Cancer Center. This is complex work. It requires extraordinary resources — human, scientific and technological. But as we proceed and progress, we will better learn what works and why. Each patient and every case will add to our armamentarium of knowledge and abilities. That’s how you beat cancer: One patient at a time. Note: You can hear Dr. Kurzrock talk about winning the war against cancer in the genomics era at a free public lecture 6-7:30 p.m. Dec. 4, at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center in Balboa Park. To register for the event, presented by the Center for Ethics in Science & Technology and UC San Diego Extension, visit http://www. ethicscenter.net/EmperorDecember2013. — Scott M. Lippman, M.D., is Director of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center.

Cathedral Catholic High School to open Options Canyon Crest Academy places Program for students with intellectual disabilities sixth in national math contest •Application deadline is Dec. 6 Cathedral Catholic High School is preparing for the January opening of the Options Program, a student centered, inclusive education program for students with intellectual disabilities. CCHS has always fostered lifelong learning, while providing the character formation necessary for responsible global citizenship. Cathedral excels in promoting an educational environment based on integrity, respect and trust where students, through the combined efforts of parents and faculty, grow intellectually, socially and spiritually. Building upon this mission, the Options Program supports the belief that students with special needs, like all students, deserve the same opportunity to maximize their academic, social and spiritual potential. Cathedral was one of the first Catholic high schools in the country to recognize the need for Catholic schools to support Catholic students with learning differences resulting in the opening of their Learning Center in 1985. They are now ready to take the next step in their commitment to education. Cathedral Catholic believes that students from a wide range of intellectual abilities will continue to learn and grow when education is provided in a nurturing, individualized, faith-based design. The Options Program will provide students with intellectual disabilities and delays an opportunity to become a part of the Cathedral community where they will be included in some general education

classes, extracurricular activities and social events. Students enrolled in the Options Program will become as fully integrated as possible into the total life of the school community. A highly individualized education plan will be created for each Options’ student in order to best address their needs and determine their path of inclusion. Cathedral Catholic recently announce that the Options Program will commence this January 2014. The program will begin with two to four students and look to grow as the program matures. The application deadline is Dec. 6. To apply, please contact: Megan Burton, Director of Inclusion, (858) 523 4000 ext 1215; mburton@ cchsdons.com.

Canyon Crest Academy placed sixth in the 2013 Team Scramble, a national mathematics contest administered by National Assessment & Testing. Coach Brian Shay prepared students for the first major team competition of the academic year, on which students worked furiously as the entire school raced to answer 100 math problems in just 30 minutes. With so many questions and so little time, competitors needed not only strong mathematical skills, but also the ability to

quickly decide which problems to solve and which to skip, as well as how to allocate the test questions among themselves to maximize their school’s score. This year, the top 25 scores ranged from 43 to 81 — out of 100 — and featured a middle school in eighth place. Canyon Crest Academy will participate in National Assessment & Testing’s 2013 Ciphering Time Trials on Dec. 12 and the 2014 Four-by-Four Competition on Jan. 30.

Local resident tops at grueling Gut Check Challenge •Event is a tribute to veterans

BY KAREN BILLING The fifth annual Gut Check Challenge was held at Mt. Woodson in Poway on Nov. 9 (Veterans Day weekend). The event, limited to just 60 elite athletes, is the only strongman, trail running and military fitness event in the world and is hosted by Carmel Valley-based boot camp Gut Check Fitness. Participants were required to carry 100 pounds up Mt. Woodson for over 3 miles and complete strongman exercises such as flipping 450-pound tires and perform military

calisthenics like burpees and hill runs. The overall winner and female champion was local resident Christina Kamme. Thomas Lopez and Mark Jones tied for the male championship. “Being a vet myself I wanted to pay tribute to all those that have served this great nation so I decided to host this event over Veterans Day weekend,” said Joe Decker, founder of Gut Check Fitness. At the race, a wall was set up where participants posted photos of veterans they cared about.

“Each time racers passed the flag they were required to turn and salute the flag and the vets,” Decker said. “This is one of he most grueling four-hour events in the world, as well as the most inspiring.” Gut Check runs boot camps throughout the week at the Carmel Valley Recreation Center, Sage Canyon Park, Torrey Hills School and Torrey Hills Neighborhood Park.

PROJECTS continued from page 1 consultant, Infrastructure Engineering Corp. (IEC), estimated that the four pipeline projects together would cost $1,122,000. However, the lowest of the three bids received came in at $1,486,000, a difference of $364,000. Under questioning by the board, district staff said they did not believe a lower price could be achieved by re-bidding the project. Staff said a combination of factors may have led to the actual cost being significantly higher than the estimate, including fewer contractors bidding on the project, contractors being more selective in their bidding, and being less aggressive in their pricing. The market conditions could be a result of an improving economy, staff said. The district may have to adjust its timeline for future capital improvement projects to account for the higher cost of this project, staff members said. The four pipeline projects are located on La Entrada, La Gracia/Via del Alba and La Bajada in Rancho Santa Fe; and on Santa Helena in Solana Beach.

DISTRICT continued from page 1 “We’d love to hear specific proposals from Santa Fe Irrigation District and we’d definitely consider those proposals for further collaboration,” said O’Donnell. Mark Muir, who sits on both the Encinitas City Council and the San Dieguito board along with his council colleagues, said his district is looking at opportunities for “functional consolidation,” meaning partnerships for certain common functions of the two districts, rather than a merger. If the two districts continue to work together successfully and their relationship progresses, he said, “We could have that conversation” regarding shared governance. For now, he said, he would favor meeting with both Santa Fe and the Olivenhain Municipal Water District jointly to “explore the opportunities” for collaboration. Hogan and director John Ingalls were appointed by the Santa Fe board to an ad hoc committee charged with meeting with neighboring water districts to talk about consolidation. They are scheduled to meet with

Olivenhain representatives on Dec. 18. Olivenhain is open to the full range of potential collaboration, from a merger to partnerships on specific projects, said Kimberly Thorner, the district’s general manager. “I think it’s great, I think my board is excited about the opportunities. My agency is all about partnering and sharing on every different level. When Santa Fe called, it was like, of course we’ll meet. I see this as very positive,” she said. While Olivenhain officials are eager to hear what Santa Fe has to say, they are not going into the meeting with preconceived ideas, said Thorner. “I believe from listening to my board, they are open to all opportunities, the full spectrum, so long as there is an end result that is good for our ratepayers at the end of the day,” Thorner said. The Olivenhain district covers a territory of 48 square miles, including parts of Carlsbad and Encinitas, and extending east as far as 4S Ranch, along with unincorporated communities such as Elfin Forest. Santa Fe provides water to residents of Rancho Santa Fe, Fairbanks Ranch and Solana Beach. Geographically, the

Olivenhain district wraps around Santa Fe’s territory on three sides. “We hug them,” said Thorner. The two districts already work together on training and other areas, she said. Driving the talk of mergers is the upward pressure on water rates that have seen increases of 74 percent imposed by Santa Fe over the past six years. Director Greg Gruzdowich, a proponent of exploring consolidation, said rates have effectively doubled when compounded annually. Gruzdowich has argued that Santa Fe can save money and keep rates down by merging with another district and sharing administrative overhead costs. His board colleagues have said they support the idea to varying degrees if savings can be demonstrated. In May, Brian Brady, who runs both the Fallbrook and Rainbow water districts under a joint powers agency, gave a presentation to the Santa Fe board. Brady said the two districts are on course to save $600,000 to $700,000 this year by consolidating management positions. He said savings are expected to increase in the future.

photo shoot. Two of his hardest subjects were the action shots —snapping a horseback rider and arriving exactly at 4 p.m. to catch a hot air balloon lift-off. “I found it really fun because I got to spend time with my parents,” Adam said. It took him a few days to select which shots he wanted to use for his project and to draw his Ranch map — his mom was very complimentary of his “unbelievable” artwork. He submitted his photo project on Oct. 18 and heard he was a finalist one day after school. “My mom picked me up from school and she said she had very good news,” Adam said. “I was stunned because I’ve never won anything like that before. It was pretty amazing.” Adam’s favorite subject in school is science and he will turn 12 in just a couple of weeks. In addition to photography, he likes to play soccer before school in fifth grade vs. sixth grade match-ups, and he also recently earned his black belt in karate — a five-year process he took on with his father.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a Mean One!: Whoville braces for another visit from The Grinch BY DIANA SAENGER Based on the classic tale by Theodor Geisel, the 16th annual Old Globe production of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dr. Seussâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; How the Grinch Stole Christmas!â&#x20AC;? continues to solicit smiles for its silly costumes, as well as audiences singing along to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a Mean One, Mr. Grinchâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Santa for a Day.â&#x20AC;? This whimsical musical is once again delighting children and families, onstage through Dec. 28 in Balboa Park. Of course, some kids canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to see if the Grinch really scares them. Steve Blanchard is honing up for his third season as The Grinch. Steve Gunderson returns as Old Max, marking his 11th appearance, and two young actresses from La Jolla are ready for their roles in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show. Gabi Leibowitz returns for her third year, this time in a new role as Teen Who. The 15-year-old said she loves â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Grinch,â&#x20AC;? and is excited to be back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the people associated with the show are amazing,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Director James VĂĄsquez is so talented and also an actor. He filled in one day for Grandpa Who, and he did the entire track without any rehearsal. From the cast to the crew, everyone is really talented and helpful with the new kids.â&#x20AC;? Leibowitz said she wanted to be a performer since she saw â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oliverâ&#x20AC;? at age four and started her career performing in dance, musical theater and film. She recently had a role in musicals at LEGOLAND California, the principal role in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once

Hourie Klijian on This Islandâ&#x20AC;? (Francis Parker School), and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fiddler on the Roofâ&#x20AC;? (Lyric Opera San Diego). Leibowitz studies ballet, jazz and tap, and has won many accolades, including being named a National Youth Theatre Award nominee. Hourie Klijian has been coming to see â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Grinchâ&#x20AC;? since before she was born. Now the 10-year-old actually has her first role in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s production in the Little Who Ensemble. She said she began performing at age 7, in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Annie.â&#x20AC;? Klijian has appeared in â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Sound of Musicâ&#x20AC;? (San Diego Musical Theatre), â&#x20AC;&#x153;Christmas on my Mindâ&#x20AC;? (Lambâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Players Theatre), â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fiddler on the Roofâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Wizard of Ozâ&#x20AC;? (Moonlight Stage Productions). She does solo, vocal performances at local venues and sings in her church choir. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love performing, and I love â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Grinch,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;? Klijian said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in the pink cast, and the rehearsals are so fun, we dance and sing, and work on our scenes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing. The adults work very hard and always help us. My favorite part of the show is when the Grinch and Max sing â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of a Kind.â&#x20AC;? What little time Klijian

has left she spends watching classic musicals, such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seven Brides for Seven Brothersâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Annie Get Your Gun.â&#x20AC;? Both girls are keeping up their schoolwork up, supported by families who take them to rehearsals and performances. They each had advice for kids who think about performing on stage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very fun and you meet nice people,â&#x20AC;?

Local author debuts cookbook inspired by California coastal lifestyle

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY KRISTINA HOUCK While Thanksgiving is a time for family, food and football, Jolee Pink views the holiday as another opportunity for artistic expression. A local artist and designer, Pink enjoys preparing her home to welcome friends and family for the festive feast. The design challenge inspired the local resident to release her new book, “Living Coastal: Inspirations for Entertaining, Decorating and Cooking California Style.” From Tapas by the Sea to Baja-Style Bash, each of the book’s 16 chapters showcases a different theme for entertaining indoors and outdoors. “I wanted to blend art and food to show how bringing the two together could elevate the dining experience,” Pink said. “I wanted to shape trendsetting tablescapes and give people ideas of what they could do at home, bringing their own personality into the mix.” Published by Chefs Press, “Living Coastal” features more than 20 seafood recipes from 18 chefs. From sea urchin crostini with roe-herb butter, jalapeño jam and lavender salt by Tommy Fraioli of Sea Rocket Bistro, to Maine Diver Sea Scallops and Baja prawns with red quinoa and icewine-eggplant foam by Bernard Guillas of the Marine Room, the book highlights local chefs who use local produce, and sustainably-sourced and locally fished seafood. From paintings to sculptures, the 112-page book also features artwork by 18 artists set on Pink’s tablescapes. Pieces include the “Jellyfish” painting by Donna Butnik and “Vertical Drop” bronze sculpture by Matthew Antichevich. “The book is definitely going to appeal to people in San Diego because it features some of the best artists, chefs and local companies in San Diego,” Pink said. “I really tried to get a diverse group of artists and chefs. Each artist and chef literally brought their own experiences and style to the table.” Pink’s art is also featured in the book. A graphic designer for more than 10 years, Pink left the corporate world to pursue art full-time in 2001. She launched Wabisabi Green in 2008 to showcase her ceramic sculptures and home and garden designs, as well as

cial about California style, and I think that may have an appeal to people who just love to cook or appreciate art or like to entertain,” Pink said. “They can pull bits and pieces out of the book.” “Living Coastal” was officially released during a launch party Nov. 21 at Cicciotti’s

Trattoria Italiana and Seafood in Cardiff-bythe-Sea. The book is available at select local retailers and online at wabisabigreen.com, chefspress.com and amazon.com. “The book’s like pealing an onion,” Pink said. “It has a lot of different layers.”

The Canyon Crest Academy Envision Dance Conservatory will present “Falling Snow” Dec. 11-13.

333 Pacific’s Ocean View Terrace overlooks the Oceanside Pier.

333 Pacific makes the most of its ‘oceanside’ views BY KELLEY CARLSON t’s not difficult to find 333 Pacific. Named for its location — at 333 N. Pacific St., just across from the Oceanside Pier entrance — the restaurant is a standout in North County for its views, vodkas and viands. Part of the Cohn Restaurant Group, 333 offers fine dining that draws everyone, from couples on romantic outings to friends seeking an evening of fun. “The guest experience is our No. 1 goal,” Executive Chef Brian Hyre said. As patrons enter through the glass double doors, they find themselves in the dimly lit Vodka Lounge, which is often vibrant with activity due to the daily happy hours and specials, and upbeat music. The casually dressed guests gather around the backlit community tables (which cast a blue glow) and socialize. Some of the visitors focus on the vodka selection, and with 115 varieties, there’s always something new to try. Others take advantage of the themed specials (from Sushi Sundays to 3-Way Thursdays) featuring deals on wines, brews and spirits, often paired with hors d’oeuvres and appetizers. The lounge is open until one hour after dinner service ends. While the lounge is trendy, the dining room presents more of an upscale casual atmosphere. Candles flicker on tables draped in white cloth, and mirrors along the wall reflect the glow. Here, diners settle in for some serious meals, from the $33 three-course prime rib dinner on Primetime Sundays, to a three-course menu created specially by Hyre on Mondays and Tuesdays.

■ This week’s recipe:

333 Pacific’s Togarashi Seared Ahi But it’s the intimate ocean view terrace that has the most coveted spots, and where Hyre recommends sitting. The focus is on the landscape — the waves and the surfers attempting to ride them, and the visitors strolling along the wooden pier. The windows are often open, allowing the ocean breeze to pass through. Whether patrons are in the lounge, dining room or terrace, the full menu is available to them, ranging from sizable steaks to fresh seafood. The most popular item happens to be one of the “beginnings,” the Sweet Chili Calamari, which is fried until crispy and tossed with a sweet-and-spicy sauce. People also gravitate toward raw bar and sushi offerings such as Pacific Oysters in a half shell, and the Steak & Sea Roll, a savory combination of tempura shrimp, crab salad, asparagus, avocado, filet mignon, spicy

mayo and basil mint chimichurri. Also among the seafood specialties is the spicy, thinly-sliced Togarashi Seared Ahi that’s fanned around sticky rice with miso beurre blanc swirled with hoisin-soy glaze and a side of mushrooms and bok choy. 333 also caters to meat lovers, who can select from different cuts of steaks. Hyre’s favorite is the 16-ounce New York Steak, but there are 8- and 12-ounce filets, as well. The 333 Filet Trio is a trifecta of temptations, each steak with a different topping: Peppercorn Demiglace, Blue Cheese Crust and Oscar-style (rab meat, asparagus and béarnaise sauce). The restaurant’s version of a surf-and-turf dish is the Mixed Grill for 2: twin lobster tails and a 25-ounce bone-in rib-eye to share with sides of mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans. While it’s primarily a seafood and steakhouse, 333 makes sure to include entree salads. One of the newest menu items is the Farro & Winter Fruits Salad, a colorful medley of apples, dates, green papaya, carrots, celery, fennel, candied pecans and a Maui onion vinaigrette. For a “sweet ending,” there are confections ranging from Pumpkin Cheesecake with pumpkin caramel, candied pecans and cinnamon whipped cream, to the Chocolate Goat Cheese Panna Cotta with salted caramel, pecan and graham Italian cake truffles. The lunch menu (served Friday through Sunday) focuses on sandwiches, burgers, salads and signature dishes — one of which comes with three items: Blackened Chicken, Andouille Sausage and Shrimp Mac & Cheese.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Golden Care, a non-medical, in-home care agency, strives to improve the lives of seniors and their families BY KRISTINA HOUCK Porsha Vogt knows firsthand how important it is to offer the very best services to seniors. Her aunt Alice had advanced multiple sclerosis and desperately needed a caregiver. Without the help of inhome assistance, she died in her home 10 years ago. “We didn’t know about this type of caregiver service,” Vogt said. “I feel like if we knew about it, she would probably have lived a lot longer.” In honor of her aunt, Vogt strives to improve the lives of seniors and their families by offering exemplary care through her Carlsbad-based non-medical, in-home care agency, Golden Care. “We do care,” said Vogt, who grew up in Rancho Santa Fe and currently lives in Encinitas. “You can trust us.” With a finance degree from the University of Colorado, Boulder, Vogt worked in the finance field for 10 years before changing career paths. “I wasn’t passionate about it at all,” she said. “I wanted something completely different.” Combining her love of seniors with giving back to the community, Vogt founded Keepsake Companions, a nonmedical, in-home care agency in Carlsbad. “It’s the best of both worlds,” Vogt said. As part of a franchise, Vogt led the company under that name for about a year. But because her service area was limited to Carlsbad, Oceanside and Vista, she opted out of the franchise to launch her own independent company,

Golden Care owner Porsha Vogt. Photo/Kristina Houck Golden Care, in October. From Coronado to Spring Valley, Golden Care services all of San Diego County and even has clients in southern Riverside County. “Our caregivers and the whole business stayed the same,” Vogt said. “It’s the same management, same caregivers, same clients — just a different name.”

From light housekeeping and meal preparation, to bathing assistance and incontinence care, Golden Care offers a variety of services. Golden Care’s caregivers are not only employees, but they are all licensed, bonded and insured. All are carefully vetted and go through an in-depth interview process, in addition to criminal and DMV background checks. Most are certified nursing assistants. Hourly and live-in caregivers are available. They are also on call around the clock. “All these phones get routed to our cell phones so someone can be accessible 24/7 a day,” Vogt said. Caregivers clock in on arrival and clock out by calling headquarters on a landline. Caregivers also maintain client binders, which contain comprehensive details of the care and remain in the client’s home. “If there are adult children or someone wants to see what’s going on, they can open this and get filled in,” Vogt said. “Then everyone’s on the same page. “We put a lot of time into our clients to make sure they’re happy. We go above and beyond in everything we do.” Golden Care is located at 5055 Avenida Encinas, Suite 100, in Carlsbad. For more information, call 760-828-5201 or visit getgoldencare.com. Note: Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of our advertisers.

Real Food & Spirits is pleased to announce the start of our new Executive Chef, Eric Damian. Chef Eric compliments Real’s traditional menu by adding specials that reflect his creativity, passion, and a commitment to using only the freshest, local and sustainable foods. In October, Chef Eric joined Real Food & Spirits. We are excited to present Chef’s new Mediterranean centric menu. It is uniquely comprised of slow cooked comfort food with the fast pace of traditional Forno cooking. In 2010, Chef Eric returned to San Diego choosing to work at the prestigious Bridges Country Club in Rancho Santa Fe. At the Bridges, Chef Eric continued to develop and redefine the boundaries between fine and casual dining while still making food comfortable and approachable.

Please join me in welcoming Chef Eric Damian to our restaurant and community. From the heart of our kitchen to the events of your lives! We are now taking reservations and hosting live music.

Lights, Camera, Grand Jeté! Team films a ballet documentary in San Diego BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT “Ineffable” is a word for things that are too great, extreme or beautiful to be expressed in words. But film is another story. Producer/directors Joani Livingston and Renée McKay believe in stories that touch people’s hearts and raise their awareness. The Georgia-based, Emmy award-winning team recently spent several days in San Diego, shooting footage for their latest undertaking, “Ineffable.” A documentary about the struggle to keep the arts alive in this country, it spotlights three different ballet companies, one of which is San Diego Ballet. Why did they choose, in a film about the arts, to focus on ballet? “Because it’s a performance art, where music, dance, theater and visual art intersect,” Livingston explained. “And performance art is ephemeral. We watch for an hour or so, then poof! It’s gone. Ballet personifies beauty, wonder, strength and a whole gamut of emotions — basically, who we are as human beings. It’s transcendent; watching a ballerina leap into a grand jeté takes your breath away. And the only way art like this, demanding constant practice and great dedication, will not be lost is by passing it on from generation to generation.” “Ineffable” examines valiant efforts to train future generations of ballet students, practitioners, and audiences in a small town (West Palm Beach, Fla.), a big city (New York) and our own mid-sized San Diego. During their stay here, at the Hotel La Jolla, Livingston and McKay were joined by writer/co-producer Sarah-Jane Murray, who lives part-time in Rancho Santa Fe. The three filmed and interviewed two of the principal dancers with San Diego Ballet, Maxim Tchernychev and Stephanie Maiorano. Tchernychev was born and trained in Russia, which was important to the film’s storyline, since ballet first came to this country with the Ballets Russes. And the company’s founding director, Robin Morgan, danced with New York City Ballet under George Balanchine, the Russian-born choreographer who is considered the father of American ballet.

The powers behind “Ineffable” are producer/director team Joani Livingston and Renée McKay, with writer/ co-producer Sarah-Jane Murray.

Max Tchernychev and Stephanie Maiorano dance for the camera at the Lyceum Theatre during the filming of “Ineffable,” a documentary about ballet. Photos/Maurice Hewitt “We were impressed with the company’s focus on technique and innovation,” Murray said. “And we were very interested in how Max came started a new life and career here, and how Stephanie deals with the difficulty of pursuing her passion in a time when everyone is cutting back.” It’s tough to survive as a dancer, especially when the performance season is only six months long. Balletmaster Tchernychev teaches at the company’s ballet school, and coaches dancers for the world’s largest student ballet competition, Youth America Grand Prix. Maiorano, in the off-season, does secretarial work for a

law firm. “We try to tell stories that promote positive change,” McKay said. “As independent producers of content for PBSTV, we reach millions of eyes and ears, and we don’t take our responsibility lightly.” With “Ineffable,” they hope to show that, through dedication, even in a world obsessed with bottom lines, beauty can triumph. And if one day it does not, something profoundly human will be lost. Livingston/McKay’s most recent documentary, “Primary Concern,” about the critical shortage of primary care physicians, is now airing on PBS. That film took 2½ years to complete. “Ineffable,” which started shooting in March, should be ready for viewing in 2015. “We think it will be our best film yet,” Livingston said. — The “Ineffable” Maxim Tchernychev and Stephanie Maiorano will appear as The Cavalier and The Sugarplum Fairy in San Diego’s Ballet’s production of “The Nutcracker” at UCSD Mandeville Auditorium in La Jolla, Dec. 20-22.

De Anza Daughters increase awareness of San Diego homeless veterans The De Anza Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution welcomed Rick Ochocki, of Veterans Village of San Diego, to the monthly luncheon held Nov. 2 at the Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach. Ochocki is assistant to the Vice President of Communications and Development at VVSD, a local but nationally-recognized and non-governmental organization founded in 1981 by five Vietnam combat veterans and dedicated to the warrior ethic, “Leave No One Behind.” With five locations throughout San Diego County, VVSD is the only program of its kind in the United States. An estimated 40 percent of homeless people in San Diego are veterans, men and women, many with substance abuse and PTSD, including many from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. “Men and women who come into the program feel they have been forgotten by society, that they have fallen between the cracks,” Ochocki said. “We offer time to get their lives together until they can go out into society as responsible citizens.” VVSD offers a long-term transitional program for homeless veterans with alcohol or substance abuse and serves more than 2,000 veterans each year. Those accepted into VVSD may stay up to two years to receive housing, counseling, job training and legal services. A pilot program is also underway to help homeless veterans without addiction problems. For three days each July, VVSD coordinates “Operation Stand Down” founded in San Diego in 1988 by veterans to help veterans get off the streets and reconnect with the community. They are provided clean

clothing, showers, job counseling, medical and dental care, food and shelter. Two-hundred Stand Down events are now held each year throughout the U.S. VVSD is supported by the Veterans Administration, grants and donations. Following Ochocki’s presentation, Linda Unrue presented $400 in contributions on behalf of members of the De Anza Chapter. Visit the Veterans Village website at www.vvsd. net. Stephanie Friedrich and Janice Daniel were inducted as new members into the De Anza Chapter by Joanne Dudek, Chaplin, and Laurel Lemarié, Regent. Stephanie’s ancestor, Andrew Glidden, born in 1737 in Exeter, New Hampshire, gave military service as a private in the army as well as patriotic service by signing the Association Test in Unity, New Hampshire in 1776. He survived the war to go on and have 19 children. Janice’s ancestor, Captain Abraham Shepherd Lane, was born in 1758 in North Carolina. Only 18 years old when he enlisted, Captain Lane served seven years in the North Carolina militia. His arm was broken when shot through by a British musket ball at the Battle of Guilford Courthouse and he was again wounded at the 1781 Battle of Cowpens, a turning point in the southern campaign in the American Revolution. A woman 18 years or older descended from a patriot of the American Revolution is eligible for membership in the De Anza Daughters. If you think you have a Revolutionary patriot in your tree, call Laurel Lemarié, 858-756-2835, or visit www.deanzadar.org.

Punk rock band X to perform in Solana Beach BY KRISTINA HOUCK Like most people, Exene Cervenka is headed home for the holidays. But her home is the road. As the lead vocalist of the Los Angeles-based punk rock band X, Cervenka and her band mates John Doe, Billy Zoom and DJ Bonebrake, are once again hitting the road for their annual holiday tour. “It’s the time of year where we can work,” Cervenka said. “I love touring!” The 24-date “A Family XMas” tour kicks off Nov. 29 in Phoenix and ends Dec. 31 in Dallas. With stops in Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington and Texas, the band will make its way to Solana Beach Dec. 8 at the Belly Up Tavern. The band has performed at the local venue several times, Cervenka said. “I always like playing there because people are always happy there,” she said. “They’re up for a good time. It’s very much a celebration.” Born as Christine Cervenka in Chicago, Cervenka grew up in Florida before relocating to Santa Monica in 1976. Through a poetry workshop, Cervenka met John Doe, and the pair later cofounded X. With Doe sharing vocals and on bass, Zoom on guitar and Bonebrake on drums, X formed in 1977 and released its first album, “Los Angeles,” in 1980. More than three decades and seven studio albums later, the original lineup of X remains. The band recently joined rock band Blondie on its fall U.S. “No Principals Tour.” “It was really good because I like that band a lot,”

Los Angeles-based punk rock band X will perform Dec. 8 at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach.

We had a fun time.” Although Cervenka said X currently has no plans to release new music, the band’s music was recently released digitally for the first time in September. Titled “The X Collection: 1980-1987,” the digital box set compiles the band’s first six studio albums.

Standard and deluxe versions of the albums “More Fun in the New World” and “Ain’t Love Grand” will also soon be released digitally. The set list for “A Family X-Mas” will include a number of the band’s most popular songs as well as the band members’ favorite songs. The Blasters, a rock band formed in 1979, will join X for every tour date except the New Year’s Eve gig. “They’re one of our favorite bands,” Cervenka said. “If anybody knows X and The Blasters are playing together and they don’t go — that’s good. I’d rather they not know who we are,” she said. “If they don’t come to this show then they’re obviously insane.” The Belly Up Tavern is located at 143 South Cedros Ave. in Solana Beach. General admission tickets cost $30. To purchase tickets to the show, visit www.bellyup.com. For more about X, visit xtheband.com.

Trade Décor hosts Drum Circle twice SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Fair monthly – No experience necessary

Passion Fine Jewelry: A ‘jewelry shop’ like no other Passion Fine Jewelry owners Tim and Janna Jackson know that jewelry stores can be intimidating and maybe a little uncomfortable. At Passion Fine Jewelry, you will not find the traditional decor of counters and display cases. You will, however, discover private dinners with world-famous European master watchmakers flown in to meet collectors — elevating Passion Fine Jewelry to a class of near perfection. Make no mistake, these guys are not just about special events and a comfortable store. Experience light dancing in Hearts on Fire diamonds, rare watches, custom designs, repair and restoration services at Passion. If you want the inside scoop on the world’s finest watches, custom or antique jewelry, stop by Passion Fine Jewelry the next time you are in Solana Beach. Or better yet, make a special trip and meet Tim and Janna and visit a “jewelry shop” that is arguably the best in San Diego County. Passion Fine Jewelry is located at 415 S. Cedros (in the Cedros Design District) at the South Cedros Crossings. You can contact Passion Fine Jewelry via phone at 858-794-8000 or visit www.passionfinejewelry.com. More about the Jacksons and Passion Fine Jewelry: •No counters, no barriers, just a place where people … can simply talk. •There is “above and beyond” and then there is Tim, hand-delivering a watch to London Heathrow on Christmas Eve. •Question: When is a jewelry store, not a jewelry store?

Janna and Tim Jackson Answer: When Tim and Janna Jackson are in charge and when it’s a community. Undoubtedly, the Jacksons provide unparalleled customer service, but what may be even more impressive is that they value and understand certain aspects of business that few others even recognize. Note: Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of our advertisers.

Del Mar area businesses to hold Holiday Shopping event Dec. 6 to support Rady Children’s Hospital Multiple Del Mar businesses are coming together with their community to present a Holiday Shopping Bazar from 5-9 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 6, with a portion of proceeds going to Rady Children’s Hospital. Del Mar Kids, V’s Barbershop, Mia Bella Couture, Urban Pi, Del Mar Swirls, Beauty and the Boutique, Man Cave, Postal Annex, Beaming and Wink Optometry will be presenting holiday shopping options, entertainment, and food and drink at the Del Mar Center shopping complex, located at 2683 Via de la Valle, Del Mar, 92014 (just east of the I-5 and in front of Albertsons). Del Mar Kids owner Staci Wax-Vanderwiel, who has been supporting Rady Children’s Hospital for years, has rallied her fellow businesses and has planned an evening of shopping, dining and “doing good.” Participating businesses will showcase unique gifts, such as classic shave sets from V’s Barbershop, high fashion eyeglasses from Wink Optometry, organic Beaming bites and treats, and the latest holiday couture from Mia Bella Couture and The Back Room. “It is great that my neighbor businesses are as excited as I am to help Rady Children’s Hospital,” Wax-Vanderwiel said. “It’s such a worthy cause and we’ll be giving back to children who might otherwise have a bleak holiday season.” Urban Pi will provide a sampling of all organic pizzas and salads, and Del Mar Swirls

will be involved as well, donating to the charity for the night’s event. Beauty and the Boutique will have makeup artists and hair stylists on hand, while shoppers wander the outdoor courtyard bazar and tour the individual stores.

In addition to donating a portion of the proceeds from the evening, the retailers are also sponsoring a toy drive for hospitalized children. For every new unwrapped toy donated, customers will receive special raffle tickets to win a variety of goods and services from participating stores. “A toy drive is such an important aspect of our Holiday Bazar,” said Scott McDaniel, owner of V’s Barbershop-Del Mar. “It’s great to support the efforts of the hospital, but it is also so important to help bring cheer and smiles to those children unfortunate enough to be spending the holidays in Rady.” “Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego is grateful to have been chosen the charity partner for the Del Mar Center Holiday Bazar this holiday season,” said Ryan Pocock, corporate and community development officer.

Sullivan Solar Power’s Cash Reward program to close Dec. 31

& GALLERY

ADDITIONAL 15% OFF WHEN YOU MENTION THIS AD!

To further expand the adoption of solar power in San Diego County, locally headquartered firm Sullivan Solar Power launched its Sullivan Cash Reward program at the start of this year. The solar incentive program, available exclusively to San Diego County residents, offers $0.20 per watt up to $1,500 cash-back for going solar. The program is set to expire on Dec. 31, 2013. “Sullivan Cash Rewards has been a game changer for residents who have wanted to go solar but thought it was too expensive,” said Daniel Sullivan, founder and president of Sullivan Solar Power. “This program allows residents to declare energy independence for no money out-of-pocket, save money every month, and then we are actually paying people to do it.” To date, more than 450 San Diego residents are benefitting from the Sullivan Cash Reward program. This year, Sullivan Solar Power is paying out more than $520,000 in cashback incentives from the participants that have already subscribed to the program. The company expects that the program will inject more than $600,000 into the San Diego economy when the program closes. San Diego homeowners can reserve their space in the Sullivan Solar Power administered program by signing up before 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 31. Appointment availability is limited. For more information on how to participate or to schedule a complementary site evaluation, call 1-800-SULLIVAN or visit www.SullivanSolarPower.com.

Pacific Ridge School to begin construction of new middle school and arts center Pacific Ridge School, an independent middle and high school located in North County, was given approval recently by the Carlsbad Planning Commission to begin construction of a permanent middle school/ administration building and a multi-purpose arts center. The project also includes the addition of 125 new parking spaces, as well as plans for the future development of a performing arts theater and library resource center. “Starting a project that will complete our campus is extremely exciting,” said Head of School Dr. Bob Ogle. “It’s gratifying to be in a position to fully realize the vision of our founding community.

Since its opening in 2007, Pacific Ridge School has experienced a dynamic expansion of campus facilities on par with the steady and robust increase in its student population. A full-size turf athletic field was installed in 2009, an energy-efficient high school building was opened in 2010 and a state-of-the-art 35,236-square-foot athletic center followed in 2011. The forthcoming expansion will allow Pacific Ridge to increase its student body from 500 to 600, a level of enrollment that will enable the school to enhance and expand program offerings while maintaining an average class size of 15.

The Carmel Valley Certified Farmers Market recently welcomed Keon Keshavarzi as the new manager of the neighborhood market, which benefits programs supported by CCA’s Foundation. “I want to create a year-round rain or shine environment where people can bring their families for lunch and dinner, shop for all their weekly produce needs, and shop for gifts and unique artisan items,” Keshavarzi said. The market is open from 2:30 p.m.-7 p.m. and the uniform lighting creates a festive feel. There are new prepared food vendors such as Gourmet French Cuisine, offering authentic fresh cuisine and new packaged food vendors such as Moonlight Artisan Cheese, a handcrafted local goat and sheep cheese vendor to go with favorites such as Bouchée, an organic bakery and specialty coffee bar, and Divine Fresh Foods, an authentic Mediterranean and Greek food vendor. Other favorites are The Baked Bear, Berumen Boyz Farms, Atkins Nursery, HOPKINS AG and Jonas Raw Honey. Keon added he would also like to get “students more involved to connect with where their food comes from, how small businesses operate and encourage the students to try new ideas.” An example of student involvement in the market is N’SESA International, a student-run organization which, according to its website, www.nsesainternational.com, sells products from developing countries here, and donates profits to nonprofit organizations that help those communities. Interested students are encouraged to participate, as it is a great way to use their skills to help communities around the world. Canyon Crest Academy senior Christina Ding coordinates and organizes a booth at the Farmers Market, which sells clothing, jewelry, scarves and knit hats. “The Farmers Market is our very own, onsite laboratory for students to experiment with their small business ideas,” said CCA Foundation Executive Director Joanne Couvrette. Its location on CCA property creates the ideal environment for young entrepreneurs to experiment with a realworld market setting at their school. From now through the winter holidays, the Farmers Market will feature live music, including a mix of professional musicians and student performers. Announcements will be posted on Facebook on Wednesdays, announcing the performer for the following day’s market. Check out the market’s Facebook page at www.facebook. com/PacificHighlandsFarmersMarket. Open every Thursday, the Carmel Valley Certified Farmers Market strives to enrich the culture of Carmel Valley by providing fresh, locally grown produce and artisan products. By providing entrepreneurial and performance opportunities for CCA students and by donating all net proceeds to the Raven’s Fund, every purchase at the market helps every student.

REVIEW BY DR. JACK WHEATON, RSF CRITIC FOR COMMUNITY CONCERTS OF RSF Two world-class musicians – an incredibly talented Irish tenor, Anthony Kearns, and his piano accompanist of 20 years (who also was a stand-up comedian!), Patrick Healy, opened this year’s Community Concerts Series at the recently remodeled Performing Center at the Rancho Santa Fe Village Church. The biggest question in my mind after the concert was how did we get these guys? They’re world class! Point of information: an “Irish tenor” generally has a higher vocal range, a lighter sound, and a more personal delivery of their song. He was perfect in this genre. Anthony Kearns was the founding member of the “Irish Tenors,” who are definitely world-class, having sold 20 CDs, three going platinum and double platinum. These are serious performers, folks! The program opened with a series of lesser-known Irish songs, but songs that were charming and entertaining. The second half was filled with popular songs from Broadway, opera, and

Jack and Jeanne Wheaton. Photo/Jon Clark motion pictures. By the end of the program he had sung songs effortlessly in five different languages. One of the great surprises of the concert was Patrick Healy, Kearns’ accompanist of 20 years, who proved himself to be a very funny stand-up comedian while he allowed Kearns to rest his voice. Besides being an outstanding pianist, Patrick kept the audience laughing out loud with his droll presentation of some of his most humorous musical experiences in opera and other stage performances and anecdotes. He also sang well and sometimes joined Anthony in song, adding beautiful harmonizations of gorgeous melodies. The audience was thrilled with this performance, acknowledging their enthusiasm with three standing ovations, beginning after Danny Boy … when there was not a dry eye in the place. Kearns and Healy rewarded the applause with two encores, each receiving yet another standing ovation: a powerfully sung Granada, and closing with I’ll See You Again. Certainly, it was one of the best musical presentations ever for Community Concerts of RSF. Would love to see and hear them again! Check out the upcoming performances presented by Community Concerts at www.ccrsf.org.

Local doctors perform pro bono surgeries on local residents in need Nine uninsured community members had life-changing surgeries performed pro bono Nov. 23 thanks to a new partnership between the San Diego County Medical Society Foundation (SDCMSF) and Outpatient Surgery Center of Del Mar. The collaboration is part of SDCMSF’s Project Access San Diego, which provides free specialty medical care to local low-income uninsured residents. Local ophthalmologist Glenn Cook, MD, Ph.D. and anesthesiologist Babak Abedi MD provided pro-bono cataract surgeries to restore eyesight and fix visually-impairing conditions in nine adults. One of the patients also received a YAG laser procedure. Surgeries were performed at the Outpatient Surgery Center located at 12264 El Camino Real, Suite 55, San Diego, 92130. One of the patients to receive cataract surgery is 54-year-old Pedro Linares. Originally from Mexico, Linares has been a resident of Vista for the last 14 years. He has worked as a carpenter for many years and has been self-employed since 2008, when his previous employer filed for bankruptcy. Unfortunately, Linares has been unable to work and support his family for the last two years due to severe vision impairment brought on his cataract. “A couple of years ago I started noticing slight changes in my vision and before I knew it, I could no longer see the lines on the measuring tape and was unable to work,” said Linares. “It’s been difficult for me to see my wife carry the financial responsibility of our family. I’m eternally grateful to Dr. Cook and both organizations for the opportunity to restore my vision.” SDCMSF Project Access San Diego has worked with the area’s community health centers that provide primary care services and refer patients to Project Access for specialty care needs since 2008; approximately 25 percent of the patients require surgery to address their health issues. For more information about SDCMSF please visit http://www.sdcmsf.org.

Trimming the Holiday Fat

The Kitchen Shrink

BY CATHARINE L. KAUFMAN “My doctor told me to stop having intimate dinners for four. Unless there are three other people.” — Orson Welles ‘Tis the season for stuffing your face silly from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, punctuated by some fattening pit stops (Chanukah, Kwanza, Christmas and various holiday cocktail parties). According to studies in the New England Journal of Medicine, although the average holiday weight gain is only one pound, it is not reversed during the spring and summer months, accounting for the increase in body weight during adulthood. Let’s leave the belly fat to Santa, and make this one

a healthier, slimmer season, excluding high-calorie, artery-clogging celebratory monsters from the table. Naughty noshes Traditional cocktail nibbles, mostly deep-fried and accompanied by syrupy or creamy dipping sauces, are packed with trans fats, butters, heavy creams, sugars, hidden carbs, additives and GMOs. Steer clear of quintessential party hors d’oeuvres from Swedish meatballs and fried zucchini sticks to pigs in a blanket and egg rolls. Swap these out for turkey meatballs in marinara sauce, rice paperwrapped spring rolls, vegetable crudités with assorted hummus and mint yogurt dips, grilled skewers of shrimp, chicken or veggies, and steamed gems like a variety of dim sum. Pork in the road Even though certain cuts of pork (like the loin) have been touted as leaner than chicken breast, for the most part holiday tables are dressed with unctuous and fatty spiral hams, bacon and pancetta. Many cuts are also loaded with sodium, carcinogenic nitrates, hormones and antibiotics. When there’s a pork in the road, choose grass-fed, immune-boosting lamb, or heart-healthy mineral-rich

sea treasures, including wildcaught salmon and shrimp, Dungeness crab, deep-sea scallops and caviar. The Dark Side As domesticated turkeys are flightless, they give their thigh and leg muscles a good workout pumping them with myoglobin proteins, making the flesh darker and fatter translating to more calories. But the skin’s the thing snagging first prize in the fat contest (3.5 ounces contain 44 grams of fat compared to the skinless breast with only 4 grams of fat). Ditch the skin, and substitute white meat for dark. If you’re game to try a more pungent fowl, go for Rock Cornish hen or quail, as wild duck and goose are rich and greasy (and more fattening, too). Carb control Put creamy green bean casserole with fried onion strings on the sidelines, along with candied yams and fatty sausage stuffings. Yams are sweet enough going solo, while string beans are divine steamed and drizzled with sassy lemon vinaigrette. Be an intrepid chef, experiment with healthier versions of stuffings using multi-grain breads, cholesterol-busting oatmeal, shredded root vegetables, wild or Bcomplex rich brown rice

with dried cranberries and toasted pecans, or aromatic quinoa for an exotic change-up. Slim down mashed potatoes blending in Greek yoghurt or goat cheese instead of the bazillion calories from butter and cream, while mushroom gravy trumps traditional fatty giblet. Sugar ‘n’ spice and edible vice You can guiltlessly indulge in your just desserts with some slimming slights of hand and disappearing acts. Pass on high-fat pecan pie filling for apple, berry and pumpkin, and lose the top crust. A little dab will do you for the whipped cream, or use non-dairy low-fat toppings such as almond, rice or coconut milk. Save Aunt Harriet’s buttery fruit cake for clichéic paperweights, and chuck the Yule log, pannetone, gingerbread cake and marzipan bonbons. Instead, whip up super dark, heart-healthy chocolate treats like walnut brownies packed with mood elevating antioxidants to make all a little mellow, ending the holiday feast on a blissful high.

Skinny sips Shake, rattle and roll with festive riffs on fattening liquid holiday cheer. Swap out highcal Chocolate, Pumpkin Pie and Evergreen Martinis for light and lively Spiced Apple, Pomegranate Rosemary or Cranberry Lavender virgins. Replace mulled ciders, buttered rums and eggnogs with refreshing key lime spritzers, hibiscus coconut Cosmopolitans, Grapefruit Mint Mojitos and Mango Ladas, a twist on Pina Coladas with mango chunks, cream of coconut and limes. Happy holiday trimming!

Mixed Mushrooms and Wine Sauce Ingredients 1/2 small red onion, minced 1 pound, assorted mushrooms (oyster, crimini, shiitake, your choice) 2 garlic cloves, minced 1/2 cup vegetable broth 1/4 cup red wine 5 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1/4 teaspoon each of turmeric, paprika and thyme 1 tablespoon dried parsley 1 teaspoon dried basil Dash of ginger, cayenne and sage Method: In a medium saucepan, heat oil on low and sauté onion, garlic and mushrooms for 2 minutes. Add Worcestershire, herbs and spices, broth and wine. Cover and simmer till mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Puree in blender and refrigerate. Heat before serving.

Ask the Plastic Surgeon BY REZA SADRIAN, MD Q. I’m thinking of undergoing a non-invasive facial rejuvenation procedure to brighten my complexion. Do I still have time before the upcoming holiday season and if so, what are my options? A. Yes, there is plenty of time to schedule a non-invasive facial treatment prior to the holidays. Non-invasive procedures require very little down-time (three to seven days depending on the depth of the treatment). The winter months are an opportune time to schedule many facial procedures due to the weaker winter UV solar rays and can provide your facial skin with a renewed, healthy-looking glow. Holiday vacation time also provides the perfect opportunity to take advantage of time off from work. You may want to schedule a resurfacing laser treatment or mild chemical peel that will address fine lines, wrinkles, blotchiness, sunspots or uneven skin tones. This procedure can be conducted in an outpatient environment, typically in a medical spa facility without

REZA SADRIAN, MD anesthetic. Depending on the depth of the laser setting or the strength of the chemical peel, recovery time will be relatively short. You may experience a redness of the surface skin and/or mild surface skin peeling for a period of several days. This can be combated with physicianrecommended medical grade skincare products and plenty of rest and relaxation accompanied by increased water consumption. In conjunction with a facial treatment, we often recommend a variety of clinical injectable products that will diminish deeper lines on the forehead, and “smile lines” around the

mouth or “frown lines” between the eyes in the brow area. We find that many of our patients want to look their best for holiday-related photos, and injectable products can soften crevices and related shadows captured by a camera. We advise a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon prior to scheduling any cosmetic treatment. Reza Sadrian, MD is one of very few plastic surgeons on a nationally recognized level dually certified in plastic and reconstructive surgery as well as oral and maxillofacial surgery. He is a Diplomate, American Board Plastic Surgery and serves as Medical Director for the Plastic Surgery and Laser Institute of San Diego. In addition to performing cosmetic plastic surgery procedures in his state- of- the- art AAAASF certified surgical suites, he offers medical grade skin care products, non-surgical treatments (including injectable Botox and fillers) and laser treatments. Dr. Sadrian can be reached at his office on the campus of Scripps Memorial Hospital-La Jolla in the Ximed Medical Building by calling (858) 457-1111 or via the web at sadriancosmeticsurgery.com.

Santa Fe Christian students pack meals for victims of Super Typhoon Haiyan

Justin Gray (USN), James Workman (USN)

Santa Fe Christian School students, parents and faculty, Friends & Family Community Connection and sailors from the USS RONALD REAGAN packed meals on Nov. 21 and 22 to help feed the victims of Super Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. More than 2 million people are in need of food in the aftermath of the typhoon, according to the Philippine government. Food packages included a variety of staples, including rice, soy meal, dried vegetables and vitamin supplements. Friends & Family Connection also provided more than 1,000 water filters and a variety of toiletry, hygiene and over-the-counter medications along with the meals. SFC students earned money to purchase the raw supplies for the food packages. Each food package costs one quarter so by collecting quarters, students could correlate their earnings to individual meals. The Philippines food packaging effort is part of SFC’s annual ‘Give Thanks, Give Back’ school wide service project. Friends & Family Community Connection and their partners have purchased, packaged, and shipped over nine million meals to San Diego County, Haiti & Tanzania, Africa, New York, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Japan, Honduras and Mexico.

San Diego Pros team up to help Philippine disaster victims at local event A group of professional athletes rallied together Nov. 23 at St. Therese Church of Carmel Church to support victims of the Philippines’ devastating Typhoon Haiyan. Major League Baseball greats Jaime Moyer, Trevor Hoffman and Bob Boone, and former San Diego Charger kicker John Carney, were out to greet people who donated food, clothing, toiletries and monetary gifts to the Red Cross and Catholic Relief Services. St. Therese spearheaded the drive with Rancho Santa Fe resident Karen Moyer, co-founder and vice president of The Moyer Foundation and founder of the Spouses in Sports organization. The group hoped to fill a 50-foot truck donated by Alexander’s Mobility Services and Atlas Van Lines, with help from the Dingman Group. They received generous donations from community members, San Diego Chargers Coach Mike McCoy and wife Kellie, the San Diego Padres and Road Runner Sports who donated 700 shoes to the cause.

Geppetto’s owner releases list of ‘Top Toys for 2013’ San Diego’s “favorite independent toy retailer” is expanding, opening its ninth location this holiday season. To celebrate, local toy expert and Geppetto’s (www.geppettostoys.com) owner Brian Miller has released his list of the “Top Toys for 2013.” In honor of the company’s ninth location, this year’s list features nine different toys for kids of all ages. Geppetto’s “Top Toys For 2013” lean towards one of the hottest trends in the industry — toys that focus on imaginative play, construction and engineering. “With the increased presence of technology in our children’s lives, it is more important than ever to balance screen time with play and imagination time,” said Miller. “Toy companies have really upped the ante when it comes to the quality and build of products on the market,” he added. Geppetto’s “Top Toys For 2013” are: Kinetic Sand ($15.99 - $44.99): Bring the beach indoors with this incredible play sand breathes motion! Easy-to-shape sand molds into simple designs and can be used again and again. No mess, no fuss - stays clumped and won’t spread all over. Perfect for kids and parents and grandparents to play with together, increases developmental skills. (ages 3 and up) Choon’s Rainbow Loom® ($16.99): One of the hottest items of the year! Using a loom, kids link colorful rubber bands to make different patterned bracelets, rings and even a mini handbag. Endless projects and patterns. (ages 8 and up) Spirograph Deluxe Set ($29.99): It’s back! Originally created in 1965 as a drafting tool by mechanical engineer Denys Fisher, the Spirograph was an instant hit in the toy world. It’s back and better than ever! Kids can make beautiful, intricate designs from the motion of gears around wheels using the art of mathematics. Without taking from the original integrity of the toy, little improvements make a big difference! (ages 8 and up) Goldie Blox and the Spinning Machine ($32.99): Engineering fun geared for girls. Goldie Blox offers a much-needed female engineer role model who is smart, curious and accessible. She has the potential to get girls interested in engineering, develop their spatial skills and build self-confidence in their problem solving abilities. Designed to nurture a generation of girls who are more confident, courageous and tech-savvy, giving them a real opportunity to contribute to the progress made by engineers in our society. (ages 6 and up) Terzetto by Gamewright ($22.99): Outwit and outplace your opponent in this clever game of marble maneuvers. Take turns placing sets of three marbles onto your

board according to the pattern in the shaker. Starts off easy but you’ll need a keen eye and a bit of luck to make everything fit. Fill your board before your opponent and you clearly know how to mind your marbles! (ages 8 and up) Lazer Maze by Think Fun ($29.99): Lights and mirrors may make it feel like magic, but it’s really science and a good dose of brain power that’s needed to direct the laser beam through this series of mind challenging mazes. Get ready for a satisfying mental workout as you flex your strategic thinking muscles and ignite the light both on the grid and in your mind! (ages 8 and up) Nancy B Moon Scope by Educational Insights ($49.99): Magnify the night sky up to 90x and see amazing things such as mountains on the moon and Saturn’s rings! Comes with two all-glass eyepieces, lens cap, tripod with built-in red LED light, special moon filter for scoping in the dark, and 22page journal full of awesome astronomy activities! (ages 8 and up) Demolition Lab by Smart Lab ($39.99): Ka-boom! With the mind-blowing Demolition Lab, kids can construct unlimited warehouse-type buildings using over 100 walls, spires, beams, panels and more. Then, they’ll try to demolish these monumental structures with strategically placed blasters -all while getting inside the science of power, force, momentum and gravity! (ages 8 and up) Pogo Sticks by National Sporting Goods ($59.99 - $69.99): Kids of all shapes and sizes can pick the pogo stick that is right for them. The pogo sticks have a unique concealed low friction spring that enables smoother, higher and quieter bounces. Designed with high quality materials featuring comfortable foot pedals and handle bars for improved balance, these sticks offer excellent control, safety and durability. (ages 5 and up) All of the “Top Toys For 2013,” along with thousands of other choices for holiday shoppers, are available at Geppetto’s nine locations, including two local stores: Del Mar Flower Hill Promenade: 2670 Via de la Valle (858-755-2100); Del Mar Highlands/Carmel Valley: 3435 Del Mar Heights (858-3509038).
