BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe community “weathered the storm” as strong rainfall soaked San Diego Jan. 20-24. “We had quite a busy four days,” said Christy Whalen, Rancho Santa Fe Association Covenant administrator and assistant manager during an update at the Feb. 2 board meeting. The Rancho Santa Fe Patrol received 88 calls over the course of the storm, including seven streets that were flooded, three vehicles stuck in water, three downed powerlines, four collisions, two minor mudslides, traffic signs down and lots of high winds. “When we get high winds in this community it sets off a lot of people’s alarms so there were a lot of home alarm calls as well,” Whalen said. “As our Patrol sergeant reported it: it was ‘general chaos.’” The Association parks and recreation crew was also extremely busy during this time, Whalen said, helping clear the some 30-40 trees that had fallen down on Association properties. “That does not count the probably hundreds of trees that went down on private properties in the Covenant,” Whalen said. “Our crew has done a great job over the last five years of identifying and removing diseased and dead trees, so I think it could have SEE TREES, A26

RSF School board has public comment discussion At the Feb. 2 Rancho Santa Fe School District board meeting, new board member Sarah Neal suggested the board revisit how they handle public comment, requesting that comments be allowed on each agenda item rather than just at the beginning of the meeting. “I think we need to send a message to the community that their input is valued,” Neal said. The board chose not to back Neal’s proposal in the interest of running effective meetings and board members also did not see that it had become an issue. “I’m trying to think of what problem we’re solving because I’ve never been in a position in six years where someone didn’t get a chance to give the feedback they needed to or that they couldn’t make their views known,” RSF School District Board President Todd Frank said. Neal pointed out that the policy in the board’s bylaws requires every agenda provide an opportunity for
members of the public to directly address the board on “any item of interest within the subject matter jurisdiction of the board or any item on agenda before or during consideration of the item.” “The policy is flexible,” Neal said. “But our practice appears to be consistently limited to only allowing the public to speak before the agenda item at the beginning of the meeting and I think there’s a lot of reasons to consider allowing a little bit more opportunity for the public to give comments during agenda items.” Neal said allowing comment during an item would allow for more “meaningful” input as they would be able to hear the description and discussion of the item. She also believes it would be more efficient because a topic would only be addressed once (rather than at the beginning and again when the item is reached). “Our meetings aren’t that SEE BOARD, A25
Subdivision has unique family history in Rancho Santa Fe BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe Association was treated to a slice of Covenant history on Feb. 2 as they approved a subdivision for Los Arbolados, owned by the Clotfelter family. There are currently 11 single family dwellings on the parcel off Via de Santa Fe and the Association approved the subdivision, allowing Clotfelter Construction to convert the dwelling units into 11 condominiums to be sold individually. There will be no physical changes to the development. The project is very similar to the neighboring Los Robles of Rancho Santa Fe, a new

President Kurt Clotfelter said the Los Robles homes sold for $2.4-$2.7 million but the Los Arbolados are older units and
might not be as expensive. Kurt’s father, Dick Clotfelter, shared his family’s unique history with the board — Dick’s father, Reg, came to Rancho Santa Fe in 1931 as an agent for the Santa Fe Railroad and ran The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe, then known as La Morada, from 1940 to 1980. Dick was born in Rancho Santa Fe in 1937 and lived in one of the village row houses until 1953. “I went to school in the Association offices up there, all six of us in my sixth grade glass. There were 36 in the whole school,” Dick said. After the war, Reg Clotfelter acquired the village parcel for SEE SUBDIVISION, A25
Candidates wanted for RSF Association board election The nomination deadline for the spring Rancho Santa Fe Association Board election is March 10 — so far the Association has yet to receive any nominations for the two open seats. The seats of board members Kim Eggleston and Rick Sapp will be up for election (Sapp was appointed to the
board last year to fill the remainder of Ann Boon’s term following her resignation). Those interested in running must submit nomination forms and statements of economic interests to the Association by 5 p.m. on March 10. Candidates have until April 21 to
withdraw their names from the ballot and the ballots will be mailed to voters on May 11 following the RSF Association’s Annual Meeting. Registered voters have 30 days to make their choices; ballots will be counted in an open meeting on June 13. -Karen Billing

Rowe FTC robotics team RSF Singularity takes top honors during the robot competition at League’s Championship On Saturday, Feb. 4, at The Grauer School in Encinitas, the three Rowe FTC robotics teams -Singularity, Logitechies and Intergalactic Dragons -- ended up being 1st, 2nd and 3rd place captains in the League Championship’s exciting alliance rounds which culminated the end of a hard-fought event. David Warner, who heads the schools FTC robotics program, said, “I’m so proud of our students, parent mentors and coaches who worked countless hours to achieve success.

Safi Jafri, (second from left, front row), the event organizer, with fellow CCA juniors and seniors after the Feb. 2 March, in front of the school.
CCA students march to protest Trump immigration policies BY JOE TASH Students at Canyon Crest Academy peacefully protested President Donald Trump’s immigration policies during lunchtime on campus on Thursday, Feb. 2, carrying signs and marching silently through common areas at the school. Between 100 and 150 students took part in the march, said Safi Jafri, 16, a junior at CCA who organized the event, using social media to promote it to his friends on campus. School officials made sure that marchers followed education code guidelines, which they communicated to Jafri and his fellow students, and said afterward that the event went smoothly. “The student-led free speech activity was calm, quiet, and respectful. They followed our expectations and their actions were consistent with the law. There were no issues of any concern between this group of students and other students,” said CCA Principal Brett Killeen in an e-mail. Members of the media were not allowed on campus to observe the march, but afterward, about 20 students, all juniors and seniors, came out to the sidewalk in front of the school, carrying their signs and speaking to reporters. Freshmen and sophomores are not permitted to leave campus at lunchtime, school officials said. Safi had printed and distributed T-shirts with the phrase, “1984 = 2017 #THISISHOWITSTARTS,” a nod to George Orwell’s dystopian novel, “1984,” which chronicles a futuristic society where leaders manipulate facts and the truth to control the population. Safi and other students said Trump’s executive order banning entry to the U.S. by anyone from seven Muslim-majority nations, as well as his rhetoric before and after the election, prompted them to speak their mind. After the march, Safi, who is Muslim and the child of parents who emigrated to the U.S. as young children from Pakistan and India, said he has been troubled by both the anti-immigrant rhetoric in recent months, and the new president’s official actions on immigration. “This is the country I love, I pledge allegiance every morning at school. I would fight for this country,” he said, but that some of Trump’s statements have seemingly questioned the loyalty of himself and millions of other Muslim-Americans. He and his fellow students said such actions
as the immigration ban could be the beginning of far worse discrimination, and compared it to the Holocaust and internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II. Safi said he decided earlier this week, “I have to do something bold but yet respectful. I have to speak out when I feel injustice to me, my brothers and sisters and mankind.” The march, he said, “was truly amazing for me. a very heart-warming feeling.” Other students who took part in the march echoed his feelings. “No refugee should be turned away from this country,” said Saumya Khanna, a CCA junior. Referencing the World War II era, when Jewish refugees from Europe were banned from entering America, some of whom were subsequently murdered by the Nazis, she said, “No one wants to see that happen again.” Junior Luca Giles, a transgender student, said, “No one deserves to be discriminated against for who they are or things they can’t control.” And Alex Poplawsky, also a junior, said she also sees disturbing similarities between the World War II era and today’s anti-immigrant rhetoric. “As a minority, I know what it’s like to feel discriminated against,” said Poplawsky, who has Jewish and Mexican heritage. “I don’t want anyone else to go through that.” Junior Kane Bush said, “I’m marching in solidarity with people who are repressed.” While many students cheered on the marchers, some students opposed their message, said Safi, and held up signs saying, “Build the Wall,” and “Make America Great Again,” which was Trump’s campaign slogan. But the marchers continued silently on their way, he said. On a Facebook page Safi set up to spread the word about Thursday’s silent march, posts later Thursday said some students were planning a pro-Trump rally at CCA for the next day, Friday, Feb. 3. Killeen, in a statement issued Thursday, said he and other administrators became aware of Thursday’s planned march through social media. School officials notified CCA families and let them know that if they wanted a quiet space for lunch, away from the event, they could go into classrooms, the gymnasium or other places. Killeen also said in an e-mail that San Diego police school resource officers and extra administrative staff were on hand Thursday to “ensure for a safe and largely normal day.”

BY JOE TASH Police and school officials in Carmel Valley and surrounding communities want parents to know that teen drug use is a problem that can be reduced through awareness and engagement. Sgt. Wes Albers and Officer Robert Briggs, who work with juveniles in the San Diego Police Department’s Northwestern Division, which encompasses the communities of Sorrento Valley, Torrey Preserve, Del Mar Heights, Carmel Valley, North City, Torrey Highlands and Black Mountain Ranch, say the problem can get worse if steps are not taken. They point to several incidents in recent months that resulted in six teenagers being taken to hospitals for treatment of drug- or alcohol-related issues. In one instance, two teens were found passed out in a car in front of a high school, and a third was found passed out at a skate park. In another case, three students who ate gummy bears, possibly laced with the hallucinogenic drug LSD, which they got at a party, also ended up at a local hospital emergency room. While all of the students recovered, the incidents did raise concerns, the officers said. “We don’t want people to feel panicked,” said Albers. “But we have to be careful not to live in a bubble and think these problems can’t impact us here. That’s our big challenge.” The officers urge parents to pay attention to their teens and be aware of changes in behavior that could signal a problem. Those include changes of dress or in their friends, or increasing isolation. Angry outbursts or a sudden drop in grades could also be indicators of a problem, they said. One way to keep tabs on what is happening with youths is to monitor their social media use. “You need to be intimately aware of your child’s social media,” said Albers. “They can so quickly end up in something way over their head. Often, the first contact police have with a minor comes over something less serious, such as a curfew or truancy violation. In those cases, and also when drugs are involved, students can be placed in a diversion program, in which they attend classes, do community service or other tasks, which allow them to avoid prosecution and a
record with the juvenile justice system. “We want to help kids make appropriate choices so as not to affect their future,” said Albers. When teens get involved in more serious drug use or violence, prosecution is also a possibility. “We always want to work with the carrot first, but there are times when the stick comes into play,” Briggs said. Joe Olesky, who has run an alcohol and drug abuse prevention program for the San Dieguito Union High School District for the past 12 years, said parents must talk to their children, and be aware of what is going on in their lives. “It’s about parents being in the know,” said Olesky. “Parents need to sit their kids down (and tell them) this is a drug-free environment.” Each year, the San Dieguito district sees about 150 to 220 students in its drug prevention program, said Olesky. Most have been caught with drugs or paraphernalia, or found to be under the influence. About 20 percent attend voluntarily or at the behest of their parents. The program includes classes, community service, journal-writing and follow-up treatment. Parents also are given drug-testing kits and told to have their children use them, Olesky said, and parents must attend weekly meetings. Among the drugs being used by teens today are marijuana, LSD, xanax and opioids, which include prescription pills and heroin, said Olesky. Particularly troubling are highly concentrated extracts of marijuana that are much stronger than the leafy form of the drug. “The biggest thing we have to talk about in the entire country is the opioid epidemic. Heroin, fentanyl and narcotic prescription pills are still very much being used by our kids,” Olesky said. Xanax is a prescription drug used for anxiety or stress relief, and often can be counterfeit, officials said. From the law enforcement perspective, an effective intervention by parents, school officials and the police can prevent relatively minor offenses by teens from spiraling out of control into more serious crimes. “Bad decisions start to compound,” Albers said. “We try to interrupt that compounding effect whenever possible.”

Book details life of basketball coach Phog Allen Author to speak at RSF Library Feb. 18 BY JOE TASH Forrest “Phog” Allen, a legendary basketball coach at the University of Kansas, was a man of contradictions - he is credited with guiding his sport into national prominence and recruiting such famed players as Wilt Chamberlain, but he also had a cantankerous side which led him to butt heads with many people throughout his career. Sports journalist Scott Morrow Johnson will talk about his new book, “PHOG - The Most Influential Man in Basketball,” at an event set for 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 18, at the Rancho Santa Fe Library, 17040 Avenida de Acacias. Refreshments will be served, Johnson will answer questions after his talk and signed copies of the book will be available for purchase. The event is sponsored by the Rancho Santa Fe Library Guild. The “family friendly” event is free and open to the public, said Susan Appleby, executive director of the library guild. The author’s parents, Fran and Bill Johnson, are Rancho Santa Fe residents and active in the community. Johnson lives in Seattle with his
family, where he works part-time as a freelance sports writer, and also has recently embarked on a new career as a substance abuse counselor. Johnson, who has covered NFL football and college basketball during his journalistic career, came upon Phog Allen’s story through his mother, who introduced him to Judy Allen Morris, the coach’s granddaughter. Johnson said in an interview that Morris had a lot of stories and memories about her grandfather, as well as a trove of letters and other documents, and was anxious to have Phog Allen’s story told. Several writers had worked on Phog Allen biographies over the years, but had not seen the projects through to publication, said Johnson, and he became determined to get the story in print. Johnson’s book was published by the University of Nebraska Press in November, and is available on Amazon.com. In setting out to tell the story, Johnson said, he wanted to chronicle episodes in Phog Allen’s life that hadn’t been written about before, such as the sudden death of his 14-year-old son from a blood clot. “That was part of the challenge of the book. I wanted to tell his whole life story from birth to death and not leave anything out,” Johnson said. According to Johnson, Phog Allen played under James Naismith, the inventor of basketball, who also coached at Kansas. While Naismith envisioned basketball as a way for people to have fun and stay in shape, Phog Allen saw its potential as a spectator sport, and had a hand in major developments, such as rule changes, the establishment of the NCAA

tournament, now popular as March Madness, and even working to get the sport into the Olympics. “He helped market and advance the sport for 50 years,” Johnson said, raising its profile, popularity and profitability. “I think he did more for (basketball) than anyone in the history of the game.” His got his nickname, Johnson said, because people thought his booming voice sounded like a foghorn. Allen coached at Kansas for nearly 40 years, winning his first and only national championship in 1952, shortly before his retirement. His career was marked by great achievement but also famous spats, such as a falling out with Naismith, his early coach and mentor, as well as other figures in the sport. One such rift led him to miss out on the 1936 Olympics, which the U.S. team won, even though he had
been instrumental in getting the sport included in the games, Johnson said. “He rubbed some people the wrong way,” Johnson said. Another disappointment, said Johnson, came in 1956, shortly after Allen had recruited Wilt Chamberlain, who went on to become one of the game’s greatest players. Allen wanted to coach one more year and make a run at the NCAA championship with his new star player, but the university declined to grant him a waiver from a rule requiring mandatory retirement at age 70. While Allen’s descendents are still Jayhawks, as Kansas fans are known, they still bear some animosity toward the university for that decision, Johnson said. Still, Allen remains a towering figure at the school, with the field house where the basketball team plays named in his honor. “He’s a huge deal there,” Johnson said. “Everyone in Kansas knows his name, but not everyone knows what he meant to the game, how influential and what a pioneer he was for taking the game to the masses.” Johnson’s own family has ties to the University of Kansas and its basketball legacy. Both his parents are Jayhawks, Johnson said, and his grandfather, William C. “Skinny” Johnson, played under Phog Allen at Kansas, and was later inducted into the basketball hall of fame.

Parents Night Out Feb. 24 supports CCA club's home-building efforts BY KAREN BILLING The Canyon Crest Academy Casas de Luz Club is hosting a Parents Night Out on Friday, Feb. 24 to raise funds to build a home in Tijuana, Mexico. The club is offering parents a chance to take a break and drop off their children anytime from 6-10 p.m. at the Univertarian Universalist Fellowship of San Dieguito in Solana Beach — the teens will entertain the children with games, activities, movies and snacks for $30 a child ($50 for two children). Mariella Gauvreau, CCA senior and president of the club, said the teens are pretty confident they can handle a lot of kids. With the fundraiser, the club is looking to raise the $4,500 needed in order to build a home. Casas de Luz was founded by Kathy Faller in 2005 and has built over 60 homes and two community centers, delivered over 500 truckloads of donations and has provided communities the possibility to achieve their true potential. The organization is an affiliate of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship and works to “create self-sustaining change through youth empowerment, cross-cultural relationships and leadership development.” CCA has had a Casas de Luz Club for the last five years and Mariella has
COURTESY
Volunteers at work on a Casas de Luz home build in Tijuana. been a member since her sophomore year. She was so drawn to the cause that she wanted to have a bigger role and applied to be an intern for the organization when she was a junior. For the last two years she has been a part of the internship program, working to get fundraisers started and build more homes. Mariella said she is
hopeful that her work with Casas de Luz is just the starting point for the rest of her life — she hopes to get degrees in both Spanish and engineering and use her knowledge and skills in the Peace Corps and doing service work in Latin America. As an intern and as club president, Mariella has worked closely with fellow high school clubs at San
Dieguito High School Academy, Westview, University City High and the brand new club at Torrey Pines High School. Skyline School in Solana Beach also has a club and she hopes this fundraiser will attract some more attention locally to the cause and get more kids involved. Last year the CCA club did a combined build with San Dieguito
High School Academy’s club, each raising half of the funds and sending 20 volunteers each to Tijuana. This year CCA Club members are aiming to raise the entire funds for a home on their own. “I’ve gotten used to how it all works,” said Mariella, who has participated in five home builds with Casas de Luz in Mexico. “When we go down there it’s just a slab of concrete and a bunch of two by fours…You get to see what it looks like from the start, building something from nothing.” Around 40 people are involved on a build and are broken into groups — some taking on the walls, others building the trusses and others focus on painting. Local contractors are on site ensuring that everything is safe and stable. “The people we’re building the home for are with us the entire time. They help work on the house and usually it’s a family with kids and the kids help us too,” Mariella said. “We spend a lot of time together so it’s so personal for us to be involved in building their house. It makes it really hard to leave because you form all these friendships. It’s amazing.” To register for Parents Night Out, e-mail ccacasasdeluz@gmail.com To make a donation toward CCA’s efforts to build a home, visit gofundme.com/casas-de-luzhome-build

‘Not the Last Butterfly’ inspires hope at SD Jewish Film Festival Feb. 12 BY KAREN BILLING For 11 years, local artist Cheryl Rattner Price has been sharing a glimpse of hope, a lesson for life and giving voice back to the anonymous child through The Butterfly Project, an effort to create 1.5 million ceramic, painted butterflies to represent the 1.5 million children killed in the Holocaust. Now a film documenting the project’s inspiring mission is taking flight. “Not the Last Butterfly” will be screened at the San Diego Jewish Film Festival on Sunday, Feb. 12 at 10:30 a.m. at Edwards San Marcos Stadium 18 and at 1:30 p.m. at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center in La Jolla. Each screening will include the opportunity after the film to paint a butterfly that will be featured in an art installation at Jewish Family Service’s Joan & Irwin Jacobs Campus. Student tickets for the film are free courtesy of the Lipinksy Family Foundation. Rattner Price co-directed and co-executive produced the documentary with Emmy-nominated documentary filmmaker Joe Fab. Rattner Price and Jan Landau started The Butterfly Project in 2006 at the San Diego Jewish Academy. Landau had been inspired by the Holocaust poem “The Butterfly.” After the war, the butterfly became a symbol of hope for survivors, that there can be renewed life, there can be a transformation. Landau had also been inspired by a documentary film called “Paper Clips,” about a Holocaust memorial created in Tennessee where students committed to collecting one paper clip for each of the six million people who perished during the Holocaust, writing letters to ask for paper clips and getting an entire community involved. They ended up receiving paper clips from all over the world, filling a rail car with 11 million paperclips representing the six million Jews and 5 million gypsies, homosexuals and other victims of the Holocaust. The car stands as a permanent memorial in their schoolyard. Rattner Price, a ceramics artist, was SDJA’s artist-in-residence at the time when Landau approached her about doing the project. The lesson of The Butterfly Project is not scary and doesn’t shut kids down in the “awful” way that Rattner Price said her generation was taught about the Holocaust. The project created a way to teach children about the history of the past in a way that let’s them feel hope. “I fell in love with the process of helping other people to learn about this topic and expressing something personal,” Rattner Price said. “You’re breaking children’s hearts when you share this story with them, they feel powerless and sad. The idea is to make a butterfly and join with others who have learned that through their voice they can make a difference and stand up when somebody else is being hurtful. “It makes us so motivated. It’s so important. We need to help our young generation to know everything they can about history and learn when we come together around a common idea we can not only honor and tribute but change lives.”

Survivor Ela Weissberger points to her artwork created at Terezin Concentration Camp. Rattner Price calls herself an “obsessive photographer” and since 2006 has documented every step of The Butterfly Project through photos and video — from the installation at SDJA using boxes of ceramic butterflies received from all over the country and world, how they have spread the project to schoolchildren throughout the country and beyond, overseeing art installations in other communities. “All of these cities did amazing, gorgeous installations and I felt responsible to share those stories. As a mosaic artist, I collect bits and pieces and keep everything and that’s how I started making this film,” Rattner Price said, noting one particularly moving experience filming butterflies installed at a school in Warsaw, Poland. “As an artist I got in way over my head, not realizing how difficult it is to make a documentary film.” She had over 200 hours of footage when she connected with Joe Fab, the producer, director and writer of “Paper Clips,” which had inspired the whole project. Once Fab came on board, Rattner Price’s documentary tightened up and took shape — it was no longer a scattered mosaic. SEE BUTTERFLIES, A13

Israeli Ambassador offers advice to San Diego Jewish students BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY Danny Danon, Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, offered words of support and advice to students at San Diego Jewish Academy in Carmel Valley on Jan. 31. Danon, who was in town for another speaking engagement, was invited to speak to students from San Diego Jewish Academy, Torah High and Southern California Yeshiva High School, said San Diego Jewish Academy Head of School Chaim Heller. The Ambassador referred to Israel as “the only free country in the Middle East,” and encouraged the students to take pride in their heritage. “Be proud to come from this country,” Danon said in front of hundreds of students. “We should minimize the damage of this change of resolution and start to do a real dialogue.” Students asked Danon questions about the state of the U.N., and he responded by saying he would like to see the U.N. be more effective. According to the New York Times, President Donald Trump has been looking at ways to change the United States’ commitment to the U.N., including the possibility of ending funding for any U.N. agency that engages in certain activity.
BRITTANY WOOLSEY
Danny Danon, Israel's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, speaks to high school students at San Diego Jewish Academy on Jan. 31. The criteria for the defunding includes “organizations that give full membership to the Palestinian Authority or Palestine Liberation Organization, or support programs that fund abortion or any activity that circumvents sanctions against Iran or North Korea,” according to
the Times. Danon suggested a reform of the U.N. instead. “The U.N. is on high alert because of the new president,” he said. “I spoke with the new American Ambassador yesterday... and I told her we need to reform the U.N. We
shouldn’t shut down the U.N. We do need the U.N. but we need to reform the U.N. to make sure the money goes to the right places.” Damon also told students that if they see reporting that they believe is biased, they should write letters to the editor to voice their opinions
and “be unafraid to make the change.” “These students should be very proud and not listen to what they hear in the media,” Danon said in an interview after his presentation. “They need to take a stand. It was absolutely important that they know that now more than ever.” Heller said he was grateful the Ambassador could inspire the students to be more proactive. “It’s incredibly moving that the Ambassador of the United Nations from Israel would take time out of an incredibly busy schedule to come and meet with students in San Diego who care so deeply about Israel,” he said. “I hope the students know that each of them makes a difference. If you see something that is wrong, you send a letter to the editor, call up a newspaper, call up the television station and become an active participant in this democracy.” Beny Mizrachi, student government president at San Diego Jewish Academy, said he was thankful Danon could speak to the students. “It was really cool to have him speak and get his perspective on the issues that Israel and the world are facing,” the 12th grader said. “It’s a really unique thing that we don’t get often in high school.”
Engaging Women in Wealth Dear Deb,
I was looking forward to attending your February 28th, ‘Social Security- The Choice of a Lifetime’ Webinar but am unable to tune in at 9:30am (PST). Is there another way that I can listen to your Webinar?
It’s time to take a hard look in the mirror When it comes to accepting the need for extended care down the road, many are in denial. “It won’t happen to me” is not a plan Approximately 70% of people over age 65 will need extended care at some point in their lives, whether in their own home, an adult care outpatient center, inpatient and/or nursing home.
The Dangers of Denial No-one wants to face the possibility of it happening to them. • Emotional & Physical damage to the family caused by this is real and irreversible • Providing care to a chronically ill person makes the healthy care-giver resentful and chronically ill as well • At least one child must put aside their life to care for you, the parent. Especially if your son or daughter feels their parent is no longer safe New & Improved Extended Long-Term Care
These are NOT “use it or LOSE it plans” If You Ever Decide the Plan No Longer Fits Your Needs, You Can Receive a Full Return of the Premiums (less any distributions)

FROM BUTTERFLIES, A11 For the film, they were able to use the story of 86-year-old Holocaust survivor Ela Weissberger. While in the Terezin Concentration Camp in the Czech Republic, Weissberger remembered a teacher, Friedl Dicker-Brandies, who inspired the children to express their pain and deal with the shock and trauma of the camp through secret art projects. Weissberger not only placed a butterfly on the wall at SDJA but the filmmakers were able to take her back to Terezin, where she left a butterfly in memory of her teacher, who helped thousands of children at Terezin before being murdered at Auschwitz. The film was an official selection of the 2016 Virginia Film Festival in November and, in January, the film was shown at a private screening at the U.S. Embassy in Latvia and a screening at the JCC Manhattan. The film is scheduled to be shown this year at the Palm Beach Jewish Film Festival, a special screening at the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival, and the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library in Kansas. They have also submitted COURTESY
Rolanda was one of four puppies who were pulled from an unlicensed backyard breeder.
Helen Woodward Animal Center seeks special home for purebred puppy suffering medical challenges Animal welfare workers worldwide are known to be strong proponents for the licensing and regulation of purebred animal breeders. Much of this advocacy stems from the many abandoned purebred pets that come through shelter doors, left homeless due to chronic illnesses, disabilities and deformities caused by unsanitary conditions and abusive breeding practices of unlicensed individuals. In September 2016, Helen Woodward Animal Center became home to four such puppies. The purebred, female, German Shepherds, ranging in age from 4 to 6 months, were pulled from a deplorable east Los Angeles backyard breeder and transferred to the center by a rescue partner based in the area. The health problems of the puppies were many but by October, three of the four pups (Romilde, Rosa and Renata) were in good shape and happily went off to their forever homes. For one puppy named Rolanda, however, the damage done may have longer lasting repercussions. The Humane Society of the United States’ (HSUS) latest studies show an approximate number of 10,000 puppy mills in the U.S. with fewer than 3,000 regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (2015). The report states, “The health impacts of overcrowding, filthy conditions, and lack of basic oversight can be traced directly to the housing and husbandry conditions. Wire floors injure paws, high ammonia levels lead to breathing problems, and the lack of sanitation results in pathogens that are very difficult to permanently eradicate. Caging set-ups designed to require the most minimal hands-on care possible often lead to treatable injuries or infections becoming severe or even deadly.” The four rescued purebreds all arrived with signs of the difficult lives they had already endured. None of the puppies had been spayed or vaccinated, one was suffering a serious
eye-infection, another – potential hip-dysplasia, and all were dealing with extreme GI infections. But what touched center staff the most, was how little the puppies personalities were affected by their illnesses. “They were so eager to trust us,” stated Helen Woodward Animal Center Adoptions Services Manager Amy Barnes. “Animals don’t feel sorry for themselves and they continually demonstrate their beautiful capacity to forgive and to love with their whole hearts.” As weeks passed and her sisters’ treatments proved successful, Rolanda continued to struggle. As months went by, the center veterinary team was forced to confirm that Rolanda’s neglect in early life indicated potential challenges for the rest of it. Rolanda’s current diagnosis includes the coronavirus (the most common symptom is diarrhea) which may or may not go away over time, a Cobalamin deficiency (Vitamin B deficiency) which may require injections for life, and GI/intestine sensitivity, which may require medication and a veterinary diet for life. “We are looking for a compassionate adopter who is willing to demonstrate true love to a dog that did nothing to deserve the struggles she is currently living with,” stated Barnes. “She is a wonderful puppy and we want her to get the happy ending her sisters experienced. Her illnesses may or may not go away but, for now, the ideal family should be comfortable providing her daily medication and a special diet. Other than that, she is a loving, happy girl ready to take on the world.” Rolanda is currently available for adoption. For more information or to adopt Rolanda, please contact the Adoptions Department at: 858-756-4117 ext. 1, visit www.animalcenter.org or stop by at 6461 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe. - Submitted press release
to festivals as far away as Hong Kong and Australia. The Butterfly Project carries on, with the goal to reach more than 60 local schools a year, with an educational team that includes Landau and retired teachers, many of whom have family members who were Holocaust survivors. They will continue to teach this impactful lesson, not only to reach 1.5 precious butterflies made but to transform resistance through art and education and empower people to take action against injustice. As one student says in the film: “I learned that if I don’t do anything, then nothing will change.” “The beauty of this for me as an artist, I feel like I’m continuing Friedl’s legacy,” Rattner Price said. “She wanted to help the children by doing art to help them handle that trauma and have hope for the future. “I’m very lucky. It’s amazing how it has all come together and it’s really exciting what is happening.” Tickets for the film can be purchased at sdjff.org.

CCA basketball prepares for next games after tough loss to La Costa Canyon The CCA boys basketball team ended the week last Friday, Feb. 4, with a 64-54 win at home against Carlsbad High School (12-12). The win came after the team suffered a heartbreaking 60-59 loss in overtime against La Costa Canyon High School earlier in the week. In the La Costa game, Ryan Michaels scored on a three-point play late in the fourth quarter to send the game to overtime. The Ravens jumped to an early 4-point lead in OT before the Mavericks scored the final 5 points, including a baseline jump shot with three seconds remaining , that gave the visitors the win. Michaels and senior forward Jakob Travis led the scoring with 22 and 14 points respectively. MJ Metz led in rebounding with 8, and electrified the home crowd with a break away slam-dunk in the second half. Against Carlsbad, Canyon Crest led by 16 at half and held on for a 10-point win.

The CCA boys basketball team scored a 64-54 win at home against Carlsbad High School on Feb. 4 Hot three-point shooting from junior Tyler Elsom gave the Ravens the early advantage who never trailed in the game.

“
After deciding to replace my 2 ageing BMWs with more fuel efficient vehicles with lower cost of ownership, I purchased a new vehicle from Mossy Honda, and then went to Mossy Ford to check out their plug-in hybrids. My salesman was very knowledgeable...hands down the most knowledgeable salesperson I have ever dealt with.
Throughout the process, everyone we came into contact with was awesome. They worked hard to get the terms that we felt comfortable with and explained all of the contracts and other options that were available to us.

TPHS sisters thrive competing against more seasoned opponents in Ultimate Frisbee BY GIDEON RUBIN There’s a fear factor that comes with competing against those who are older, more experienced, bigger, stronger and faster. “At first it’s a little bit intimidating, but you get used to it,” Lauren Hanna said. Lauren and her twin sister, Ava, both juniors at Torrey Pines High School, have adjusted to competing against more seasoned ultimate opponents just fine. The sport Lauren is known to most as Ultimate Hanna Frisbee, but it’s now played with a disc made by discraft. The Frisbee is made by Wham-O. The game mirrors football, with players passing the disc down the field and scoring PHOTOS BY KATYA when a player catches a pass LAVROVSKY in the end zone. It’s high-intensity but Ava Hanna non-contact. “It’s amazing to play ultimate, you get this adrenaline rush when you’re going against another person.” Ava said. The Hanna sisters went up against world class adult competition, playing on Long Beach Legacy teams that won several games at the U.S. Beach Open’s Pro Division in November. In September they were part of a team that won first place at an adult Beach Ultimate tournament in Long Beach. Last month Ava was named tournament MVP at the Beach of Dreams Tournament in Santa Monica, helping lead the La Canada Disc
Demons to a first place finish. Lauren was on a team that finished third. They played on different co-ed teams in a tournament that emphasizes gender equality. They will compete with elite collegiate programs this weekend at the Stanford Open (Feb. 11-12). Ava and Lauren will play for a high school all-star team. “They are so much bigger than me, so it’s intimidating at first, but I’ve gotten used to it now,” Lauren said. “I get accustomed to their playing style, I’m not as intimated by the end of the game.” The Hanna sisters have a good mentor. Their father, Cliff Hanna, played club ultimate at Georgia Tech in the late 1970s, in the early days of a sport that at the time was associated with counter-culture. Their older sister, Inesse Hanna, is a freshman who plays club ultimate at Drexel. The sport has grown since its inception at Columbia High in Maplewood in 1969, with opportunities to compete internationally for Team USA, and play professionally, too. “It was always competitive but it was competitive counter-culture,” Cliff said. “Now it’s gotten a lot more legitimacy.” It nevertheless remains true to its roots, emphasizing a spirit of community and friendship, and sportsmanship ahead of most competitive sports that are inherently adversarial. Those were some of the qualities that Ava said attracted her to the sport. Ava and Lauren both came to the sport with backgrounds in competitive sports. Both ran cross country and played tennis on the junior varsity team. Ava also played basketball

Lauren Hanna making a catch. competitively. “I really enjoyed it because there were a lot of friendly people there and it was a lot of running around, it made me feel fit and happy for myself overall, there was a lot of encouragement,” she said. The sport is played on fields of varying sizes on grass fields and on the beach, 7-on-7 on big grass fields to 4-on-4 and 5-on-5 on beaches and smaller grass fields. It’s sometimes played
with mixed-gender teams, part of the sport’s stated commitment of promoting gender equality. “It’s all on your honor, all the calls and all the fouls come from the players, that kind of reassures me that I’m not going to get injured,” Lauren Hanna said. At the elite club and college games “observers” are hired to referee in a passive role. But the game functions on an honor system at every level. “The beach world championships still doesn’t have officials, you call your own fouls at the the highest level,” Cliff said. “It’s very unique.” Sportsmanship isn’t treated as a platitude. “It’s actually incorporated into the rules,” Ava said. “That’s just as important as the competition level.” Each game concludes with both teams gathering in a ultimate spirit circle to encourage camaraderie. “In other sports when you’re competing you only see other people as your opponents and you don’t really get to know them very much,” Ava said. The Stanford tournament will offer the Hanna sisters exposure to some of the elite club programs on the West Coast. It figures to be among the biggest challenges of their career. “There’s definitely going to be teams that are more cohesive,” Lauren said. “I’m there to compete,” she said. “We can still go that kind of tournament, I know usually people our age don’t do that, but we can go ahead and compete against college players.”

Scripps Women’s Heart Center opens in San Diego Expert cardiology care provided for women by women Everyone knows that women are different from men in all sorts of ways. That holds true for the heart as well. That’s why Scripps Health has launched the Scripps Women’s Heart Center, offering expert cardiology care for women by women. The center, led by four female cardiologists, is located at the John R. Anderson V Medical Pavilion on the Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla campus. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the United States, killing more than 280,000 women in 2013, according to the latest figures from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Yet only 54 percent of women are aware of that fact. That’s partly because some heart attack symptoms experienced by women -shortness of breath, nausea or vomiting, and back or jaw pain -- can differ from those experienced by men and can be easily mistaken for other ailments. For many women, heart disease is a silent threat that goes undiagnosed until symptoms of a sudden heart attack, heart failure or stroke surface. Physiology also means women are affected differently by heart disease. Women have faster heart rates than men and their hearts are smaller, making them more vulnerable to damage. Research has found

OPINION
OUR READERS WRITE Does the deluge mean lower water rates?
Schools should be made safe for all
It was with great pleasure that we read the recent article in the Rancho Santa Fe Review in which Michael Bardin, general manager of the Santa Fe Irrigation District, pointed out that Lake Hodges possibly could “fill and spill this spring.” Since the district owns a share of the water, local rainfall means a greater supply of cheaper, local water for the district and its customers, according to the article. We also noted Mr. Bardin feels the district “could make money if Hodges spills over.” Does this mean customers now can look forward to the lowering of the massive rate hikes the district has imposed on us over the past six months, and the elimination of the future one? Cindy Baker, Joanne Fishman Rancho Santa Fe
On Jan. 20, during a Torrey Pines/Canyon Crest Academy basketball game, a group of students began chanting “Build that Wall.” When I heard about this, I contacted the school administrators, who confirmed the incident occurred. As this was the second time a San Dieguito Unified High School District (SDUHSD) athletic event featured a group of students chanting “Build that Wall,” I also asked the administration to send out a public notice indicating they were aware of the incident and reaffirming the district’s commitment to a safe and supportive school environment for all students. Unfortunately, school administrators chose to remain silent. And not only silent, but somewhat disingenuous. When Marsha Sutton wrote her article after the election titled “Stop the Hate,” she indicated she had asked school administrators if there were any issues that had occurred on any of the SDUHSD school campuses involving harassment or hate speech. She was told that there were none. This despite the fact that at the last board meeting it was acknowledged that before the election the administration was aware of an incident at a Torrey Pines football game in which students also chanted “Build that wall.” Fast forward to Feb. 2 when students at Canyon Crest Academy coordinated an event on campus protesting the President’s travel ban. Parents were aware of the event before it even happened. How and why? Because the principal at CCA sent out an e-mail to the parents notifying them of the “peaceful, silent march” – and those are his words, not mine. Furthermore, in addition to notifying parents, he assured us that he had “met with the students involved and discussed appropriate parameters” for their activity. This
The loss of trees and vegetation in RSF concerning I’m concerned – so many people, who are building homes in our rural paradise, are removing trees, underbrush and vegetation from their acreage. Why did they purchase lots in Rancho Santa Fe, if they didn’t want trees and vegetation? The old art jury was quite extreme and undemocratic but preserved our oasis. Is the current committee over compensating and by allowing clear cutting in the Ranch? Can we expect high-rise condominiums next? Let’s make Rancho Santa Fe green again! Art Woodrow Rancho Santa Fe
doesn’t make sense to me. A peaceful event supporting a safe, supportive, and inclusive school environment regardless of ethnicity mandates an email in advance warning parents? And even offering students who might be offended by the protest an alternate location to eat lunch? But chant “Build that wall” – there is no email, no notification, no affirmation that SDUHSD schools are safe for all, and no public acknowledgement of the event or that administration even met with the students who yelled this form of hateful speech. But, apparently (and for which they want us to be thankful), our administration is concerned enough about our children that when a peaceful event occurs, they make sure to talk to the students involved ahead of time and warn the parents via e-mail. It appears that if they are truly concerned about making schools safe they are doing so only for some -- but not for all. Rajy Abulhosn Carmel Valley

6 things to know about depression and heart disease Most people are familiar with the more well-known risk factors that can lead to heart disease such as a family history of heart problems or high cholesterol levels. What’s less known is the impact of depression on heart health. February is American Heart Month, so it’s a good time to take a deeper look at this important health topic. About one in 10 Americans aged 18 and older has depression, and it affects nearly twice as many women as men. “Through research and clinical experience, we are learning more about the relationship between depression and heart disease, including the role depression plays both before and after a heart attack or other cardiac problems, particularly in women,” said Christina Adams, M.D., a cardiologist with the newly opened Scripps Women’s Heart Center. Here are six informative facts about how depression can affect the heart. 1. Depression can raise the risk of heart disease. Though the reasons are not fully understood,
TO YOUR HEALTH researchers know that even mild forms of depression and its symptoms increase the risk of a heart attack and heart disease. Depressed women are more than two times likely to experience sudden cardiac death than women who are not depressed. In fact, the American Heart Association now recommends screening all heart patients for depression using a simple questionnaire. 2. Depression can make it harder to recover from a heart attack or heart failure. Just as depression can raise the risk of heart disease, the opposite appears to be true: heart disease can raise depression risk. Following a heart attack, cardiac event or heart surgery, it is not unusual for patients to experience depression. Studies show that up to 33 percent of heart attack patients feel depressed. Moreover, people with depression have a lower chance of recovery and a higher risk of another serious cardiac event or even death after a heart
attack, most likely due to a combination of physiological and psychological factors. 3. Depression can trigger physiological changes that increase heart risk. “When a person is feeling stressed, the body releases more of the stress hormone cortisol, which has been linked with an increased risk of heart disease and heart attacks,” Adams said. Additionally, people with depression may have especially sticky platelets (the cells that cause blood to clot), high glucose levels and increased inflammation levels, all of which are risk factors for heart disease. 4. Depression can make it more difficult to care for your heart. It’s hard to maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle when you’re depressed. “The symptoms of depression, including feeling tired and having a lack of interest in activities, can make it challenging for people to take care of themselves and make healthy choices,” Adams said. To make matters worse, people may try to deal with their depression through comforting but harmful behaviors such as smoking, SEE HEALTH, A24

FROM SCRIPPS, A19 their hearts through education, healthy lifestyles and expert medical care when needed. “As female physicians, we are acutely aware of the unique needs that women have when it comes to heart care,” said Uddin, who is board certified in cardiology and integrative holistic medicine. “My colleagues and I know how factors such as estrogen imbalances, pregnancy, autoimmune conditions and migraine headaches can greatly affect women’s hearts.” As part of Scripps Health, the center is associated with the region’s largest heart care system and the only one recognized for more than a decade by U.S. News & World Report as one of the best in the country. “Women often tend to care for our loved ones before we care for ourselves, but we can’t help others if we’re not healthy,” said Adams, who also is board-certified in cardiology. “Research shows that women with heart disease are less likely than men to be accurately diagnosed and treated. Our new center is focused on erasing those differences.” Heart attacks hit Poway woman at her prime Bertha Verde is one Scripps patient who knows the value of heart care designed to meet her unique needs. The 53-year-old Poway woman had her first heart attack a year and a half ago just after she had wrapped up a boot camp exercise program. Like many women, she experienced
no advance symptoms. Once at the emergency room, doctors found complete blockage of her left anterior descending artery, which supplies blood to more than half of the heart muscles.

That’s why it is important to choose a physician who understands the role of depression in heart disease and considers your mental health and emotional wellness along with your heart health. 6. Treating depression can help decrease heart disease risk. In most cases, depression can be successfully treated through cognitive therapy, medication or a combination of both. As people with depression begin to feel better, they may find they have more energy and are more
motivated to make lifestyle changes that can improve their heart health. Physiological risk factors, such as increased stress hormones, also tend to improve.

FROM BOARD, A2 long and we don’t have a lot of public comment so I think it seems like within reason and we can still keep our meetings efficient and effective,” Neal said. At neighboring San Dieguito Union High School District, members of the public fill out speaker slips denoting which agenda item they would like to speak to. There is also time for non-agenda public comment at the end of each board meeting. The Del Mar Union School District operates similarly, but non-agenda public comment is held at the beginning of the meeting. When the boards reach the agenda item, the board members decide whether to discuss the item first or hear from speakers first. RSF School District board member Scott Kahn voiced concern that public comment on items could turn into a question and answer session with the board. “This is a public meeting of the board,” board clerk Marti Ritto said, noting it’s not meant to be a Q&A or interactive session and that the president has the latitude to include or not include input as appropriate. “The intention of this meeting is really just to be our functional meeting in public.” Neal said she understood that the public can’t “steer” the board meeting but thought they could possibly achieve a balance as the meetings are the public’s only real opportunity to address the board. She said Rancho Santa Fe is a small community and members should be able to hear the board’s discussion and ask questions or seek clarity on issues. Frank said during his period on the board, there hasn’t been a time where they haven’t allowed the public a chance to comment during a board meeting.

The Rancho Santa Fe School board meets. multiple meetings. In the past, particularly on the issue of Spanish, there have been times when members of the public have had to return to the next month’s meeting to address what was discussed the previous month because comment was not allowed on the agenda item after they heard the board’s discussion. Where Spanish was concerned, town hall meetings were later held. “What we don’t want is an argumentative type of a situation,” Frank said of public comment. “And when we have needed more or felt like the public had more to give us, we’ve had other meetings that are more town-hall style which are more back and forth and interactive.” Neal quesioned what the harm would be in allowing the change and allowing members of the public to choose when they address the board. “There’s no harm in it.

Kurt said the development will live up to the requirements of the Covenant, maintaining the common area grounds and having its own well-defined homeowners association.

FROM TREES, A1 been a lot worse.” Whalen said they were fortunate that most of the trees fell away from the roadway, although El Camino Real was closed for a time due to downed trees. In neighboring Fairbanks Ranch, Facilities Manager Crescent Jakubs said they had four large eucalyptus trees and one pine fall down within the community, as well as one pine down outside along San Dieguito Road. Jakubs said they had “extensive” water runoff through the community and some flooding through walkways and canyon areas, but no major damage or structural issues. While the Covenant lost trees in the storm, the community planting event on Jan. 28 at the Osuna Ranch brought 35 new trees, planted by about 70 volunteer attendees.
The Association is also taking steps toward addressing the issue of dead and diseased trees in the Ranch. On Feb. 2, the board approved a Committee on the Natural Environment (CONE) request to conduct a forest health study. The Association approved contracts with environmental consulting firm Dudek and community tree advocate organization Tree San Diego to create the data-driven assessment of the Covenant’s trees. The study will include maps, photos, spreadsheets and charts of the forest and summaries about composition, health, density and fire threat. It will also provide recommendations to address health and fire threat issues. The Association will allocate $30,000 toward the $50,000 cost of the study. The rest will come from a $20,000 donation from the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation.

Brixton Capital purchases Del Mar Plaza An affiliate of Brixton Capital recently purchased the Del Mar Plaza from Munich, Germany-based GLL Real Estate Partners for an undisclosed sum. Del Mar Plaza is located at 1555 Camino Del Mar at 15th Street in the heart of Del Mar. The 76,000-square-foot shopping center has panoramic ocean views from its spacious outdoor patio, along with seven upscale dining options and national retailers such as Banana Republic and Lorna Jane. Brixton plans to revitalize and reimagine the well-known center by modernizing and elevating the overall appearance, tenant mix and community outreach in order to better meet the needs of residents and visitors. According to Marc Brutten, chairman of Brixton Capital and long-time Del Mar resident, “The shopping center was built with a tremendous amount of community input in a timeless and irreplaceable location. The Plaza now needs to recapture that original sense of community purpose with a more defined tenant mix and active event calendar." A major part of Brixton’s plan for the center will be attracting greater community involvement in the center with frequent events and entertainment activities on the plaza level patio with its surrounding vista of the Pacific Ocean. Travis King, CEO of Brixton Capital, stated, “Del Mar Plaza presents a unique opportunity to unlock value in one of San Diego's finest properties. We are excited to work with tenants and the community to make that happen." Thao Tran, senior vice president at Eastdil Secured, represented both parties in the sale of

that the district make sure the teaching and learning is rigorous and standards-based, provide more professional development for teachers and to strengthen the arts department’s organization so they can work more effectively as a team with a collective vision. “MUSE is currently not standards-based and I think that’s a critical component that we have not implemented at this school that needs to be implemented,” board clerk Marti Ritto said. “We need these to be standards-based…these are not just fluffy subjects.” In October, the board approved hiring Adams as an independent consultant to conduct a comprehensive review of the district’s arts program. Adams was the first drama teacher at Canyon Crest Academy and former director in the school’s Envision program, which encompasses cinema, dance, theater, music and digital and fine arts. Over the last few months, Adams said she has been impressed by R. Roger Rowe students, watching them in classes, after-school activities, assemblies and arts performances. “It’s been such a joy to see them discover new things and have exciting new ideas, to grow their confidence and to also express their developing sense of identity through the arts,” Adams said. “That’s incredibly inspiring to me.” As part of her review, Adams also had formal and informal conversations with administration and teachers, received input from questionnaires and met with the San Diego County Office of Education’s visual and performing arts coordinator of Arts Empower to discuss next steps and strategic planning. At R. Roger Rowe, there are currently four lead MUSE teachers and six teaching artists who come before and after school. Adams said she would consider hiring full-time, credentialed teachers for MUSE as it’s difficult for part-time instructors to provide the rigor required. Right now music teacher RC Haus is the only full-time teacher. Adams suggested the district move toward arts-integration when appropriate and also to move toward all-school events that further curricular learning goals as well as build community. She noted the school has many “remarkable and beautiful” all-school events but they are not curricular and a lot of instructional time goes into the creation of these events. She gave

an example of Grandparents and Special Friends Day, which was created by Haus and drama teacher Heidi Moreno put together the “incredible” production. “That performance was not created and practiced during classroom arts time. It was practiced during classroom instructional time. And when you counted up all the hours, it was a total of seven hours or classroom time that was taken away from core content,” Adams said. She said Haus recorded songs and gave them to classroom teachers to work with students so it wasn’t Haus doing specialized music instruction with the students. “It was a hybrid that didn’t allow the event to be as meaningful as it could’ve been for the students and it wasn’t standards-based at all,” Adams said. “To do it differently, arts teachers could collaborate to make sure events are standards-based and that preparation happens in arts classes or an arts-integrated instruction model.” Adams overall recommended the district include more arts-integration, where an arts specialist works with a core classroom teacher to develop activities and lessons that meet dual-learning objectives. Adams said arts integration is growing in popularity because it’s efficient and a smart way to assure kids are getting arts standards in some way. “Teachers also love it because it engages students,” Adams said. “It’s such a powerful way to get kids interested in what they’re learning and it always offers students a much deeper way to explore whatever they’re learning.” Adams said that in her meetings with teachers they have always said that any project that involves arts are the projects that the kids remember most. RSF School District Board Vice President Tyler Seltzer said generally the consensus from parents on every school program is that they want more, whether it’s arts, robotics, foreign language or athletics. It’s a challenge to change the academic schedule in any way, to add more requires a balance and it can be almost an endless debate. “We have arts already taking place and its affecting every single kid at this school,” Superintendent David Jaffe said. “If we become more efficient in how we deliver it, and we provide professional development for the teachers who are already delivering it, we’re going to get better quality. Not necessarily more, just more efficient.”

Encinitas baker tastes sweet victory on ‘Cake Wars’
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY Twelve years ago when she started baking, Monika Stout just wanted to impress her children with homemade birthday cakes. But last summer, the Encinitas woman impressed people who most would consider harder to please — the judges of Cake Wars. Stout, 53, won her episode of the Food Network reality competition television show last July. The episode aired last month. Keeping quiet about the win — and its $10,000 prize — was a challenge, she said. “Some people knew we had been on the show, so they wanted us to tell them what happened,” Stout said recently in her kitchen as she prepared a chocolate mocha cake. “We couldn’t tell them. I would tell them we made it past the first round.” The episode started out with four bakers and their assistants. Some bakers were eliminated after the first “Batter Up” round, in which they were asked to create a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cake with pizza ingredients. Stout and her assistant, Louise Pass, decided to sculpt Michelangelo popping out of a pipe. The cake, which took an hour-and-15-minutes to complete, was made with tomato spice and Mascarpone frosting with a caramel drizzle and candied pepperonis with cayenne pepper.
BRITTANY WOOLSEY
Encinitas-based baker and Cake Wars winner Monika Stout prepares a mocha chocolate cake in her kitchen Feb. 3. Then came the big cake, which was Stout’s goal to create all along. (She said her victory was a nice extra accomplishment.) The winning confection was a chocolate mocha cake with candied pecans and butter cream with a butterscotch drizzle. The three-foot-tall cake displayed the four turtles battling different villains on top of two buildings.
About five winning Cake Wars creations will be on display at the San Diego Cake Show, which Stout and Pass both sit on the board for at the San Diego Cake Club. The public event will take place March 18 and 19 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Tickets are available now at sandiegocakeshow.com. Stout, who has never gone to a formal culinary school, said she is
hoping to use her earnings from the show toward a trip to Ireland later this year with her husband. Stout, a graphic designer who has been baking since she was 40 and took classes at La Costa Canyon High School, said the hobby was an instant love for her. “The minute I started doing it, I was like, ‘Oh, yeah. This is what I was meant to do,’” she said.
She has since taken classes all over the country and also teaches decorating classes in her home kitchen — which is a certified cottage food operation — and at Standlee’s Cake & Party Shop in Chula Vista. Stout said she enjoys baking because of how calming it can be and how exact the recipes are. She’s not as fond of cooking. Croissants are an ideal treat to create when she is stressed out, she added. “Everything has to be precise and perfect for croissants to work out,” she said. “For me, that’s like zen.” While the baking originally started out as something for Stout’s children, her now 20-year-old son’s and 24-year-old daughter’s sugar cravings have died a bit. “They’re over it,” Stout said, laughing, adding that the kitchen counters and their cabinet space are usually filled with homemade desserts. Still, she’s got her own sweet tooth to please, anyway. “I like chocolate,” she said with a smile as she stirred a generous amount of cocoa powder into her mixture. “I’m like any woman.” She said she spends about 15 hours a week baking. Reservations can be made four-to-six weeks in advance on her website, trulyscrumptiouscakes.com or by calling her at 760-803-0869.

Billy Crystal talks La Jolla Playhouse, Oscars, comedy, (#$@*!) cellphones BY GEORGE VARGA Billy Crystal is surely not the only comedy legend who earned his first big laugh as an elementary school student, but he may be the only one who credits his initial success to being clumsy in the cafeteria line. “I had my food on my tray,” he recalled. “I tripped, by accident, and dropped the tray — and everybody laughed. The next day I came in and dropped it again! And here I am, 60 years later, still dropping trays.” What Crystal is not noted for dropping are f-bombs, whether it’s in his interviews, his books, his Broadway hit, “700 Sundays” (which got its start at the La Jolla Playhouse in 2004), or in his classic comedy movies, which include “When Harry Met Sally,” “City Slickers” and “Analyze This.” But the veteran star made a four-letter exception during a recent 30-minute phone conversation previewing his Feb. 16 solo show, “Spend the Night with Billy Crystal,” at Jacobs Music Center’s Copley Symphony Hall. His uncharacteristic expletive came during a discussion of cellphone use at concerts, plays and other live arts events. It’s an increasingly ubiquitous phenomenon that prompts the otherwise affable star to seethe with frustration and anger. “You have no idea how disconcerting and insulting it is that somebody is so short-minded as to be texting, or checking their messages, while you’re talking on stage,” Crystal said. “It’s awful, especially in theaters. “I was performing on Broadway and someone in the second row, a woman, was on her phone — constantly — as soon as I came out. I started playing the whole show to her, saying: ‘Get the f--- off of your phone!’ ” “Pardon me,” Crystal said to his interviewer, who required no apology for the justifiable epithet. “Then I could see her mouth go, to whomever she was talking to: ‘I have to go;

he’s looking at me’.” Crystal let out a loud sigh of exasperation. “Men will put their phones in their shirt pockets, and it lights up and looks like E.T.,” he lamented. “And, on stage, you hear it ring and are interrupted by it. Using cellphones is one of the worst traits about audiences and it’s like it’s accepted now. “One of the things I hate about performing is the disrespect people have. So I hope people will be more responsible. We work very hard with the ushers in the theaters I perform in to make sure people don’t use their phones.” Why audience members pay good money for their tickets, only to rudely blather on phones or text and check emails during performances, remains a mystery. Not so, the solution, which has less to do with policing by ushers than with common sense and respect from attendees. “It’s up to people to turn their phones off,” Crystal agreed. “This need they have to be in touch with (other) people all the time is really sad to me. I get it if you are a doctor who’s on call. But, otherwise, if you’re coming to a show, aren’t you coming to get away from all that?” SEE CRYSTAL, B19

Singer-songwriter Esmé Patterson headed to Belly Up BY ROB LEDONNE On a cold Monday afternoon in Philadelphia, Penn., singer-songwriter Esmé Patterson is on a brief respite before a tour stop later that night. Patterson, who’s tour heads out west to Solana Beach’s Belly Up on Feb. 15, has grown accustomed to the hustle of being on the road. “I don’t really live anywhere right now,” Patterson laughs with a hint of seriousness. “I used to live in Portland, Oregon, but after almost 10 years of being on the road I don’t pay rent anywhere. I feel as comfortable being on tour as other people are at home.” Patterson is at the helm of a charmed career, her most recent highlight being the release of the album We Were Wild, her third as a solo star. Released last June, it received raves with Rolling Stone’s Jon Dolan calling it “subtly charming” with “cute throwbacks” peppered throughout, while NPR chose standout track “No River” for its Songs We Love showcase. Patterson points to her nomadic lifestyle as one of the main inspirations for her alternative pop tracks. “My work is constantly evolving,” she notes. “There’s an interesting term calledbackground ` processing.’ Right when you’re trying to think of something
Esmé Patterson will perform at the Belly Up Feb. 15. specific, you pull it out of the swamp of your brain. Songwriting is a background process for me. I’m living my life and taking in my surroundings and then write about them later.” Patterson’s journey started in Boulder, Colo., where she grew up in midst of the Rocky Mountains, later co-founding the folk rock assemble Paper Bird. From there,
she wound up in Portland and has led a life on the road ever since. When it comes to actually sitting down and crafting her deeply personal tracks, Patterson says she has not one surefire process. “There’s a lot of different ways it happens for me,” she explains. “I’ll sometimes sit down with a guitar and a piece of paper and a pen and then it kind of comes together. For
DANIEL TOPETE
me, music is very intertwined with poetry and it can’t really be separated. It’s hard to describe; each song has its own spirit and personality.” Finding songwriting “cathartic,” Patterson has turned to music as a reaction to the ongoing political upheaval in the United States. “I feel I have no illusions about the realities of where we’re at,” she
said. “I myself wasn’t surprised in the election in some ways when a lot of people around me were shocked. I feel incredibly lucky to have this unique perspective by meeting people every day around the U.S. and looking them in the eye and shaking their hand. It’s a really interesting time to be driving around America and kind of scary also, but at the same time a beautiful experience.” As for her own career, Patterson says she can’t point to one singular moment that transformed her life, whether it was her smash collaboration with the singer-songwriter Shakey Graves with “Dearly Departed” or her stints performing on shows from Late Show with David Letterman to Conan on TBS. “For me there are no levels of achievement, you just keep on doing and making. It doesn’t matter matter how many people are in the room, it just matters if you reach people or not. Not thousands. If you reach two people, you’ve done your job.” Patterson and the band Lucero will perform at the Belly Up (143 S. Cedros Ave., Solana Beach, 92075) Feb. 15. Doors open at 7 p.m., the show starts at 8 p.m. Visit www.bellyup.com and www.esmepatterson.com.

A Tribute to Harold Cohen
UC San Diego exhibits work of late computer-art pioneer LET’S REVIEW BY WILL BOWEN he late computer-based artist Harold Cohen, who taught at the UC San Diego Visual Arts Department for more than 26 years, liked to joke that he hoped his computer protégé, a painting machine he called AARON, would give an art show of new works in New York City after he died. Unfortunately, this may never occur because after Cohen passed away in April 2016, AARON was unplugged and placed on exhibit in a computer museum in San Jose. However, as a tribute and a key feature of the UCSD Visual Arts Department’s year-long “50th Anniversary Celebration,” the works of Cohen and AARON will be on display at both the University Arts Gallery (UAG) in the Mandeville Center and at the Structural Materials and Engineering (SME) building art gallery until Feb. 17, in a show titled “Harold Cohen, Creating Computational Creativity.” The UAG exhibit is a retrospective of Cohen’s life work with several of his overly large later paintings on view. The show at SME features some his colorful, animation-like paintings, along with work of two computer-based artists, Sheldon Brown and Robert Twomey, both of whom Cohen influenced. Twomey, a 2007 MFA graduate of the UCSD Visual Arts program, has on display a functioning device that consists of a camera with a 360-degree lens attached to a drawing machine with a Bic pen that sketches what the camera sees. As the scene in the gallery in front of the camera changes, so does the drawing. UCSD Visual Arts professor Brown’s contribution is a very long silicon arm (tentacle) with three, prong-like fingers that is powered by a computer program and a pneumatic air pump. The arm is

WILL BOWEN
Becky Cohen in front of a portrait of the late Harold Cohen just learning to do things and is currently only able to twist around and pinch (sometimes itself!) but it’s anticipated that at sometime in the future, the arm will pick up a paintbrush and begin to paint. Cohen’s ex-wife, Becky, who is a filmmaker and photographer, attended the reception for the works in the SME gallery on Jan. 26 and introduced his paintings. She said she met her husband when she was a graduate student in the visual arts program in 1969. “My husband was trying to build a machine that would simulate human freehand drawing. It was modeled on his own style of artwork,” she explained. She added that he called his first drawing machine, “AARON,” and was going to give subsequent versions of the computer program different names but ended up sticking with “AARON,” which was his own Hebrew name. He started out his career as an Impressionist artist in England, but switched to computer-generated art
exclusively after he took an influential computer programming class at UCSD, where he had come to teach. “Harold’s program, AARON, is very famous in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community,” said Becky Cohen. “It is actually the longest running AI program in the history of computing.” Also at the gallery reception was Hiromi Ito who became Cohen’s “significant other” after his break up with Becky in 1986. Ito, who gained fame as a radical Japanese poet, came to teach at the UCSD Literature Department and met Cohen through their mutual association with poet Jerome Rothenberg. “I love Harold’s art work,” Ito said. “It is colorful and imaginative. You know, Harold was not really interested in influencing people. He just wanted to be totally immersed in the process of making and thinking about art. Even near the end of his life, when he was getting weaker and could not stand up to paint, he would still sit and paint
with AARON. He actually died while working in his studio.” Another important person at the SME reception was Tom Machnik, who was Cohen’s last assistant, working with him from 2008 until Cohen’s death in 2016. Machnik said he was hired by Cohen even though he had no background in the arts. “Cohen’s chief aim, and most important activity, was exploring ‘Rule-based art,’ ” said Machnik. “Artists follow rules, whether they are conscious of it or not. Cohen, through constantly thinking about what art is, was able to delineate these rules. He then used these rules to teach AARON the computer how to paint.” Cohen once admitted to Machnik that AARON’s art was “deterministic” because it strictly followed its programming, but was also “creative” in that it produced new paintings no one had ever seen before. However, Cohen maintained that he was a bit more creative than AARON because he designed the program that AARON followed to produce the work. For Cohen, creativity was, “The ability to modify one’s behavior as we are doing it,” Machnik said. Brown, who created the tentacle in the SME show which may someday paint, remarked that he originally came to UCSD to work with Cohen. “Cohen was a true pioneer in computing in the arts,” said Brown. “He is perhaps the most important artist in the history of UCSD Visual Arts because of the thinking about art that he brought to the art-making process.” Brown ended the evening with the astonishing suggestion that someday there will be great computer painters on the level of the human masters! ■ IF YOU GO: University Arts Gallery (UAG) is open 1-4 p.m. Tuesday-Thursday. SME Gallery is open 2:30-6:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Admission is free. Directions to the galleries on the UCSD campus at uag.ucsd.edu/visit

HIGH-TECH, FAMILY-FRIENDLY DENTAL PRACTICE WITH HOMETOWN TOUCH IN R ANCHO SANTA FE
• Focus on each patient's individual needs with big customer service • Extremely gentle hygienists
By Stacey Phillips If you ask Dr. Weston Spencer why he decided to become a dentist, he becomes nostalgic. “It was really my grandfather, Robert Yates, who inspired me,” he says. As a child growing up in Utah, he recalls visiting his grandfather’s dental office. Although it was a small practice, it was big on customer service and had a family feel to it. Once he made the decision to pursue the dentistry profession, Dr. Spencer knew that he wanted to offer that same personal touch in his own practice someday. Fast forward to the present time and Dr. Spencer currently operates two locations in San Diego — one in La Jolla and another in Rancho Santa Fe, which he opened nearly a year ago. Tucked between the Rancho Santa Fe Inn and Roger Rowe Elementary School, the office is reminiscent of his grandfather’s small practice, and where Dr. Spencer makes it a priority to focus on each patient’s individual needs. Dr. Spencer, who specializes in comprehensive restorative cosmetic dentistry, says, “Whether it’s something as simple as a basic filling and removal of decay, to a full mouth reconstruction where a patient can’t eat or chew, we want to make sure patients are pain free and comfortable.” He says his friendly staff prides themselves on providing the best care in an inviting environment. This includes taking the time to carefully observe each patient’s oral health status and explain their dental recommendations. They also stay current with the latest techniques and equipment. “We have up-todate x-rays that are extremely low in radiation dosage so it’s virtually non-existent,” he explains. This dates back to his own education at Loma Linda University School of Dentistry in California where Dr. Spencer was class president for four years and received the Dean Prince Award for Leadership. He graduated at the top of his class clinically in 2010 and was named Top Clinical Dentist. After graduating, he worked as an associate dentist in Orange County while pursuing his dream of owning his own practice. He began practicing in La Jolla with Dr. James Lovell in 2011. The office reminded him of his grandfather’s and eventually he decided to take it over when the well-respected dentist planned to soon retire. Living near Rancho
Santa Fe with his wife and four children, Dr. Spencer opened an additional location closer to home in 2016. The Rancho Santa Fe office is currently available to treat patients on Thursdays and throughout the week for after-hours emergencies. In 2017, Dr. Spencer plans to add more days during the week. Patients are also welcome to visit Dr. Spencer throughout the week in La Jolla, where he currently practices four days. “If you live or work around Rancho Santa Fe, there’s no question we’re going to make it as easy possible to visit the dentist,” he says. “We’re right there. It’s extremely convenient for everybody.” With the close proximity to the elementary school, the practice offers a walking service for children. Parents are able to request that the dental office picks up their children from school for cleanings and basic dentistry. Afterwards, they are walked back to class. “We wanted to make this service available for those who live in the community so the whole family can be treated by us,” says Dr. Spencer. He says his biggest joy is helping people. “The most rewarding experience is knowing that our patients trust us, are talking about us, and are wanting their friends to experience what they are experiencing,” he says. After a thorough exam, patients receive the “white towel service,” to wrap up their appointment. Dr. Spencer says his hope is to transform as many smiles as possible and provide first-class treatment. He also makes it a priority to educate the surrounding community about good oral health. He recently talked to a group of seniors at the Rancho Santa Fe Senior’s Center. During his presentation, he covered the three most common questions he is asked by patients: the necessity of flossing and how gum health is related to overall health; x-ray radiation and if there is a risk for cancer; and when implants are recommended. “We understand that patients don’t always want to see the dentist,” says Dr. Spencer. “Sometimes it’s a necessity and not necessarily a desire but while they are here we try to make it an extremely positive experience. Hopefully by the time you leave, you don’t feel like you’ve really been at the dentist.”

We were absolutely thrilled with the global exposure our property received through the efforts of the whole team, both on-site and behind the scenes.

With the help of listing agent Ann Brizolis of Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty, project manager Amy Kimball of Concierge Auctions and representatives Anna Houssels and Brittany Hahn of Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty Auction Division, we were able to navigate the auction process seamlessly and find a new and right owner for our home.

CCA’s ‘Rendezvous in Paris’ gala drawing features Hamilton Broadway experience
COURTESY
The Canyon Crest Academy gala online auction opens on Feb. 11 at 8 a.m., with many packages to bid on, including a chance to win two tickets to see Hamilton in New York City. This award-winning musical is currently the hottest ticket on Broadway, and the winner will enjoy a 3-course dinner with two cast members, two Mezzanine tickets, in-theater meet and greet with a cast member after the show, and a signed Hamilton cast photo. Only 100 tickets will be offered for this opportunity drawing. More information can be found at ccagala.com. Attendance at the gala is not required to bid on packages in the online auction.
Canyon Crest Academy Foundation offered a similar opportunity drawing last year and the winners took Broadway by storm. Tina Blumenfeld, the winner, shared the following review of this once-in-a- lifetime experience. “We had a wonderful dinner at a beautiful four-star theater district restaurant with Hamilton cast members Thayne Jasperson and David Guzman. They shared all their wonderful memories from being in the original cast of Hamilton since day one, including backstage stories. The show was every bit as amazing as the hype, and lived up to its reputation of being the most exciting thing on Broadway in decades.” SEE HAMILTON, B19

Bry visits local coding school Barbara Bry, the newly elected San Diego City Councilwoman for District 1, is a high-tech serial entrepreneur and is a strong advocate for increased technical education for children. She is vitally interested in STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) education, especially for girls and underserved youth throughout the city of San Diego. She recently visited The League Of Amazing Programmers at its new Carmel Valley classroom. The League is a nonprofit, public benefit institution that offers a long-term after-school coding program for middle/high-school kids that leads to professional Java programming certification. Students progress through a 10-level, graded curriculum, which is UCSD Extension accredited. Students receive UCSD Extension transcripts and certificates for each League level successfully completed. Computer Science AP exam preparation is part of the League curriculum with students normally taking the exam in the eighth or ninth grade. The youngest student to pass the CS AP exam so far was in the sixth grade. Students take the Oracle Professional Certification Examination in the 11th or 12th grade. With Oracle professional certification students are prepared to enter the workforce directly, without college, as computer programmers in highly compensated and extremely satisfying careers. An acute shortage of computer programmers exists in the U.S. today. It is estimated that 1 million programmers will be needed over the next 10 years in this country. U.S. schools are not graduating sufficient numbers of qualified

In Silicon Valley, The Economist states that, “…entry-level engineers can easily earn $120,000 a year…” Bry spoke briefly to League students during her visit and encouraged them to complete their computer training and come back to live and work in San Diego where the weather is nice and where there are an abundance of computer programming jobs. As an outreach to kids in underserved communities within San Diego, the League operates campuses at the San Diego Central Library and at the Malcolm X Library. Full scholarships are available for any students attending Title 1 schools. Forty percent of League students are girls and students from underserved communities.
League students meet weekly for 90 minutes and are taught by Java professionals who volunteer their time to pass the secrets of the trade on to their students in a small class setting. Classes stay together for the duration of the five-year program resulting in strong, professional relationships with their teachers as mentors and guides. Classes move as fast or as slow as is comfortable for the group. As a prerequisite for the continuing classes, interested students attend a week-long workshop. Check the workshop schedule at www.jointheleague.org for more information. Financial aid is available. - Submitted by Vic Wintriss, executive director of The League Of Amazing Programmers
The Santaluz Club hosts author Brunonia Barry The Santaluz Club recently welcomed New York Times best-selling author Brunonia Barry, author of “The Lace Reader,” for a wickedly fabulous literary-themed luncheon to discuss her new novel “The Fifth Petal.” It all started with quenching Witches Brew served upon entry of champagne and Pimms liqueur topped with a blood red cherry. Barry read excerpts from her new novel as members and their guests enjoyed a three-course lunch designed to complement the book’s theme. Shrimp Broomsticks, made of Kataifi wrapped shrimp, green goddess remoulade, and candied lemon, marked the first course of the luncheon followed by sweet pea and white rose potato chowder topped with bacon wrapped scallops. Lastly, the Apple Rose Petal Tart drizzled with salted caramel sauce was a divine sight and treat to top off a magical luncheon.

Tips for Your Sclerotherapy Treatment for Varicose Veins If you have varicose veins, you already may have been scheduled for sclerotherapy treatment to remove your varicose veins. But maybe you still have some questions about the sclerotherapy procedure and you want tips on maximizing the healing process. A quick refresher: The sclerotherapy procedure happens right in the doctor’s office. Depending on the severity of the varicose vein—or veins—the procedure can PANCHO DEWHURST GDC Construction 858.551.5222 gdcconstruction.com
take only thirty minutes or it can even be done in as little as five minutes’ time. Sclerotherapy is an injection of the chemical sclerosant directly into a varicose vein in order to damage the inside lining of the vein. The subsequent scarring causes the vein to close. After the injection, pressure is applied over the veins in order to prevent the blood from returning once you stand up. Repeated sessions are sometimes necessary, depending on the extent of the varicose veins. Once the procedure is over, there are some common tips for post-treatment recovery. All doctors and therapists will recommend that patients wear compression stockings after sclerotherapy treatment. Some will recommend that patients wear them for several days, while others will extend the recovery time with compression stockings to several weeks. Compression stockings help maintain pressure throughout the legs (and veins), promoting healthy circulation
and reducing the bruising. It is always best to follow the recommended time frame for wearing compression stockings after treatment. Bruising around the injection site or sites is common among sclerotherapy patients, and the appearance of bruises can last up to two weeks—the bruising period is almost always longer for patients who are on blood thinners. But just as every patient is different, so are the healing times. A small bruise, post-treatment, for a couple of weeks is nothing to worry about. If the bruise increases in size and deepens in color more than a few days or a week after treatment, or an abscess appears around the injection site, go immediately to the hospital, as you may have an underlying condition that causes such a rare reaction. To be extra cautious, some doctors and vein treatment centers recommend avoiding any over-the-counter medications that act as anti-coagulants or blood thinners, such as
aspirin, ibuprofen, and even omega 3s. While there is no “down time” required after sclerotherapy treatment, it is good to avoid any strenuous activity or exercise. That being said, regular low-impact exercise, especially walking, is encouraged by most doctors and vein treatment centers beginning immediately after treatment. It will be important to report to your doctor any slow or lack of healing, either at the injection site or any localized clotting. There may be some discoloration of the skin at the injection site, but this is generally nothing to worry about and can be corrected with topical creams or even laser therapy. Remember, there are plenty of fake remedies out in the world, which are a waste of money and could delay potentially crucial treatment. Varicose veins are a medical condition and could be a symptom of a much bigger vascular problem, and they are a condition best treated early on.

FROM CRYSTAL, B3 Here are highlights from our far-ranging interview with Crystal, who discussed … The La Jolla Playhouse: “My experience in La Jolla was such a great one. When we work-shopped ‘700 Sundays’ there in 2004 with Des MacAnuff, who would later direct the show, it was a turning point in my life. I think we did 14 or 15 shows there, and — five months later — we were on Broadway. It was so fast! And it was incredible to work with such talented people as the ones in La Jolla. It gave me the confidence to be funny and touching.” His “Spend the Night with Billy Crystal” tour: “We call it that because people feel like they are at the dinner table with me. It’s that personal to them, and that relaxed, and that’s what I love about it. I’m on my feet 90 percent of the time, telling stories and recollections, showing film clips. It’s a very fun night of re-living memories.” Drawing from current events in his show: “You know, I don’t do much of that, though it’s hard not to now. These other comics out there say something, and somebody boos or yells. There’s so much anger out there. I’ll talk about current events in a certain way, but it’s not my focus. What’s funny today won’t be funny tomorrow. … It’s a very confusing time and a very edgy time now. Somehow, it doesn’t feel like this is our country — it will take some time for things to settle.” His breakthrough role on the TV series “Soap”: “I never thought about it as ‘This will make me famous.’ I thought: ‘This is a really daring show, and if we can do it right, it could be important.’ It wasn’t about what it would do for me, but what I could do for this character. I thought that, if we could play it right, we could do something that hadn’t been done before (a gay character in a sitcom) on TV. I hadn’t seen it in so many years and recently found some DVDs of ‘Soap.’ I watched it, and thought: ‘You know what? This was on 40 years ago!’ I was really proud about it.” Craving the spotlight from a young age: “I needed that attention. To get out in front of people, it’s one of the places I feel most comfortable. I’m an uncomfortable person in front of small groups. But in front of 200 people, or 2000, I’m comfortable.” His tenure as a middle-school substitute teacher: “When I would come in, I was what they called a ‘per diem floater.’ So I would report every day. If anybody was out, I’d take over any kind of class, even if It was something I wasn’t skilled at, which was everything! But mostly, I’d teach was English and phys ed. I’d take questions from the students and sometimes break in new material.

Because I was just starting out in comedy. And if somebody is in a chair, looking at you in a classroom, it’s really no different than in a comedy club.” Doing a Spinal Tap reunion: “Hey, yeah, of course. One last tour! But I want the royalties on the ‘Mime is money’ hats! (Crystal’s character in the 1984 movie, “This is Spinal Tap,” was “Morty, the mime, waiter,” who memorably declared: “Mime is money! Come on, move it!”). Advice for Jimmy Kimmel on hosting the Oscars: “I was talking to Kimmel the other day. He’s very witty and did a really good job on the Emmys. When everybody asks me about hosting the Oscars eight times. I tell them: ‘Just look like you want to be there. Work hard to write good jokes and don’t over-stay your welcome. Just pick your spots and make sure the show moves along.’ The most important thing is having a really good time. And it’s difficult for the audience, because they’re all nervous and uncomfortable. So pick jokes that work.” Jack Palance doing one-armed push-ups during his 1992 Oscars Best Supporting Actor acceptance speech: “I think it was the greatest set-up for a joke in Oscars history. Plus, I was one who had helped create that part (for Palance) in ‘City Slickers.’ Jack was in the first movie I ever saw as a kid, ‘Shane.’ And here I was in ‘City Slickers,’ acting with him in a role he won an Oscar for doing. It was such a thrill. And that happened to be one of the better shows in the history of the Oscars. Because he did (the push-ups). it gave me a running start for the rest of the show. Did I send him a thank-you card? Um, no — he already had the Oscar!” His creative impetus: “I haven’t stopped working since high school; I really haven’t stopped. I love to tell stories. I love to create things from out of the blue, and create new people, characters, stories, movies. Whatever they end up becoming is just an extension of the stories you tell from the time you’re a little kid. I was always imitating my relatives. … I was always interested in creating someone else and becoming someone else.” Retirement: “I never even use the word. I got to know (comedy pioneer) George Burns pretty well. I was with him in Las Vegas when he was 95, and I watched him do an hour and a half performance. Afterward, I asked him: ‘Will you ever retire?’ And he said: ‘To what? What would I do?’ ” ■ IF YOU GO: “Spend the Night with Billy Crystal,” 8 p.m. Feb. 16.
