The Del Mar mayor joined his San Diego counterpart, Mayor Kevin Faulconer, as well as Joe Harper, president and CEO of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, and Craig Fravel, president and CEO of the Breeders' Cup, on an ocean-view deck at the Plaza Del Mar shopping center to kick
off eight months of planning and preparation leading up to the two-day racing event on Nov. 3 and 4.

Saturday, Feb. 25 was an exciting day for the two R. Roger Rowe School’s FTC Robotics teams that made it to the Greater San Diego Regional Championship at Francis Parker High School. Intergalactic Dragons and Singularity competed throughout the day, which was a culmination for the two teams of a hard-fought season which began last September. Although they didn’t qualify high enough to move on to the Super-West Regional Championship this March in Tacoma, Wash., their hard work and perseverance over the past six months is a testament to teamwork, robotics and their school. The highlight of the championship for the R. Roger Rowe School was when officials announced that David Warner, who heads up the school’s FTC Robotics program, received the prestigious Compass Award. This annual award is given to an adult coach or mentor who has provided outstanding guidance and support for a team and demonstrates what it means to be a gracious professional. The school’s three FTC robotics teams Singularity, Logitechies and Intergalactic Dragons – produced a one-minute video so they could nominate Warner and thank him for his dedication, guidance and unwavering passion to all things science and robotics.

Donors sought for CCA Dollars for Scholars Program The 2017 CCA Dollars for Scholars Program needs help from generous donors in the community. Last year, 63 scholarships totaling $36,500 were awarded to CCA students who attended a wide variety of excellent colleges and universities. With such a talented and dedicated 2017 class, the CCA Dollars for Scholars program's goal is to always strive to increase the program's scholarship funding. While some scholarship funds are raised through sales of CCA student directories, graduation yard signs and graduation leis, the program relies, for the majority of scholarship funding, on the generous donations of CCA friends and the broader Carmel Valley, Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach, and Encinitas area’s businesses, civic groups and individuals.
A great way for the community to support CCA DFS is to attend a Dream Dinners fundraising event on March 7 and 27, where three wholesome meals can be assembled and taken home to enjoy with your family. You will enjoy a discount on the meals and CCA DFS will receive a $10 donation for each purchase. Another way is to sign up your student for Drivers Ed during the upcoming spring break. The course will be held at CCA, from April 10-13, and students must be at least 15 years old to register. Information and online registration can be found at www.canyoncrest.dollarsforscholars.org. CCA DFS scholarship recipients are selected based upon school and community involvement, scholastic achievement and personal commitment, and receive awards beginning at $500 that they apply towards
tuition and fees. Individuals and businesses may make a fully tax-deductible donation toward a scholarship, or establish a named scholarship of $500 or more. They may designate a scholarship for a students pursuing a particular discipline, or to remember a loved one or friend. CCA DFS welcomes matching donations from employees’ businesses. Donations made to CCA Dollars for Scholars, a program of Scholarship America, a 501.c.3 corporation, are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law and are awarded to students who plan to attend a two or four year university or college, vocational or technical school. For more information, visit the CCA Dollars for Scholars website at www.ccadfs.org. For questions, please contact Kathryn Sabellico by email ksabellico@gmail.com or call 760-822-0851.
RSF Firefighters participate in annual Boot Drive March 9 Rancho Santa Fe firefighters will be taking to the streets and intersections again this year to help raise money for burn survivors. The annual Burn Institute Boot Drive, taking place on Thursday, March 9, raises money to help fund burn prevention programs and survivor support services, including Camp Beyond the Scars for children who have survived burns. Firefighters will be standing at major intersections throughout the district during the morning and afternoon commutes, collecting monetary donations of any amount in empty fire boots. “We look forward to this event every year,” said Firefighter Nathan Fritchle, who is coordinating RSFFPD’s efforts this year. “It’s a great chance for us to interact with members of the community and raise funds for a very important cause. It also creates a friendly competition among participating fire agencies to see who can raise the most money.” Fire Chief Tony Michel added, “Due to the nature of this once-a-year endeavor, there may be some traffic delays at a few intersections in our district. We want to thank everyone for their patience and understanding as we strive to raise money for this great cause.” The Burn Institute is a nonprofit agency dedicated to burn prevention and support for burn injury survivors and their families. Last year’s Boot Drive raised over $200,000. For more information on the Boot Drive and the Burn Institute, please visit www.burninstitute.org.

More NYT bestselling authors than ever at this year’s Writers’ Conference, says President of CCA Creative Writing Club BY LOIS ALTER MARK Don’t be surprised when you start to see more and more bestselling authors coming out of San Diego. Over the past five years, the CCA Writers’ Conference – the only free writers’ conference for high school students in the country – has continued to grow and encourage aspiring young writers, drawing in hundreds of teens from more than 20 area high schools and attracting top names in publishing. On Saturday, March 11, Canyon Crest Academy’s Creative Writing Club will present the sixth annual conference, and it looks to be the biggest one yet. Twenty-two authors will lead workshops in a variety of subjects from screenwriting to poetry to comics and graphic novels. Students will have the opportunity to participate in six different sessions with a choice of four workshops per session. The day will begin with a keynote address by Mary E. Pearson, author of several award-winning books for teens, including the bestselling Jenna Fox Chronicles. “The conference has gained recognition by both authors and publishers, and authors have actually started to reach out to us, requesting to speak, which is really great,” said Julia Camilleri, president of the CCA Creative Writing Club. “This year, we have the largest number of New York Times bestselling authors presenting, and attendance is soaring!” Camilleri, a senior at CCA, joined the Creative Writing Club during her freshman year, and took over after former president and conference founder, Devyn Krevat, graduated. “As a sophomore, Julia stepped into the role of president with poise and competence,” said Kathy Krevat, author of the bestselling Chocolate Covered Mystery series and conference consultant. “She balanced it all with a heavy

In addition, she is working on her Gold Award, the highest award that can be achieved in Girl Scouts. Although all of these projects revolve around writing, Camilleri plans to pursue a pre-med course of study in college, with the goal of becoming a pediatrician. “Writing is a hobby and de-stressing activity that I enjoy on the side,” she explained. “It has and will continue to be a creative outlet for me and an important tool in my future endeavors.”
Camilleri believes that any high school student considering a career in writing should take advantage of this conference. “It’s a great learning opportunity, and students even have the chance to meet a literary agent in a workshop about getting published,” she said. “Every author has a unique experience to share about the process of becoming successful. Plus, there’s something for everyone, whether you’re interested in journalism, creative writing, poetry, graphic novels – pretty much any genre related to writing.” Krevat agrees. “As an author myself, I think there are three valuable takeaways from this conference. 1) Students learn how to navigate the publishing industry, which is more complex than they realized. 2) They see that the speakers were once just SEE WRITERS, A22

The La Jolla Community Center draws a crowd for Aboo Nasar’s talk on happiness, Feb. 16.
Food for Thought
Physician shares science behind mental health, happiness tools BY ASHLEY MACKIN “Happiness is a perception. It’s reflective of our perspective on life. We can look at life with different lenses and different prisms. We try to live in a world of Zen, but it doesn’t always happen that way,” said Aboo Nasar, M.D., a board-certified geriatrician and internal medicine physician, during his “Pursuit of Happiness” lecture. The talk was given as part of the La Jolla Community Center Distinguished Speaker Series, Feb. 16. To assist the brain in creating that uplifted perception, Nasar said there are things we can do — eat a healthful diet, get enough sleep, have good social connections and maintain a sense of spirituality. And while these concepts are not exactly breaking news, Nasar explained the science behind these lifestyle habits and their impact on the brain and overall happiness. After speaking at length about why pharmaceuticals are only one option — and perhaps a detrimental one when taken in excess — he talked about how feeding the body well and integrative psychiatry are alternatives being considered more regularly. “Integrative psychiatry looks at the whole person: body, mind and spirit,” he said. “If I have to treat a patient, I have to work with multiple entities … so when we want to assess mental health matters, we have to look at a whole slate of things.” But, he added, “The most important thing is how you feed your body. If you look at a Ferrari, it can look nice, but to run, it has to have a sufficient engine and energy-dispensing system. Food is one of the crucial things that affects mood.”
Mood food
Nasar cited a recent study in Australia, which suggests a diet of whole grains, fruits, nuts, legumes, vegetables, lean meats, chicken and seafood — and a decrease of foods in the “beige diet” (white, carbohydrate-based items that are low in nutrients) — yielded (positive) mood changes that were comparable to those generated by certain pharmaceutical drugs. Conversely, he said high fructose corn

Wild-caught salmon, Nasar added, is high in Vitamin B12, “essential for your neural-integrity and the nerves in your brain.” Lastly, strawberries have Vitamin C and manganese, which are “crucial for making serotonin (a neurotransmitter that contributes to the feeling of well-being) and an amino acid known as GABA, which contributes to neuro-relaxation.” Other foods he recommends include raw almonds, avocados, shitake mushrooms and sesame seeds. Diets high in these foods, along with “beans, greens, citrus, berries, healthy fats such as coconut and fish oils,” contribute to the production of endorphins, he said. Other ways we can encourage the brain to make these elevating neurotransmitters include exercise, laughing, soothing scents such as SEE HEALTH, A22

CCA grad overcomes hearing loss, receives scholarship to pursue medical career BY KAREN BILLING Victoria Popov, 22, was recently awarded the Graeme Clark Scholarship from Cochlear Limited, the global leader in implantable hearing solutions. Born deaf, a whole new world opened up for Popov when she received cochlear implants at ages 8 and 17. The Canyon Crest Academy graduate is now a senior at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York, majoring in biomedical science with a minor in psychology. Popov said the scholarship represents an investment in her education as she aims to continue on and become an otolaryngologist (ENT), inspired to help others after her own experiences. Popov received her scholarship on Feb. 19 in Orlando, Fla., at the closing ceremonies of a four-day Cochlear Celebration, a convention attended by hundreds of cochlear recipients and their families and the four other winners of the Graeme Clark Scholarship. The scholarship is named after Dr. Graeme Clark, the inventor and pioneer of the multichannel cochlear implant. “It is an honor to recognize these incredible young people who have
demonstrated grit and tenacity in both their academic and personal lives while making the most of Cochlear’s hearing technology,” said Tony Manna, president of Cochlear North America. “As Cochlear implant recipients, these students are not only leaders in their communities today but will also be bright stars in the industry they choose to join tomorrow.” Popov was born completely deaf but as there was no screening at that time for babies, her parents didn’t know she was deaf until she was 18 months old. Popov said her parents were unsure about her hearing ability as sometimes she would respond to them and sometimes she wouldn’t—Popov said they later learned that when she did respond, she was likely responding to the vibrations of the sound. She spent years wearing hearing aids and getting by at school by lip reading but, at age 8, then a student at Del Mar Heights, she received her first cochlear implant. Cochlear implants are different from hearing aids, which only amplify sound. The implant consists of an external sound processor and an internal implant that is surgically
placed underneath the skin, behind the ear. The implant is attached to an electrode inserted into the cochlea to help patients hear. When sound is captured by the sound processor behind the ear, the sound is converted to digital information which is transmitted to the internal implant, sending sound signals to the brain. “I was able to pick up on sounds more crisp and clear,” Popov said of the life-changing implant. “I was able to hear the birds chirping for the first time.” She received her second cochlear implant at age 17, to help with sound localization. “I didn’t realize what I was missing out on,” Popov said of life before the cochear implant. “I couldn’t tell if someone was speaking to me from behind. I did a lot of lip reading and the sounds I heard didn’t have the fine details I got with the implant. It was the best decision I’ve ever made.” She said while she will never fully hear like a fully hearing person, the difference is extraordinary and her limitations are few — she said it can sometimes be challenging hearing a phone conversation if she’s in a noisy environment. It’s amazing to her to consider how far technology

SEEKING TROPICAL
PARADISE? Torrey Pines High School’s TP Players in the musical “The Addams Family.”
COURTESY
Winter musical ‘The Addams Family’ opens at TPHS Torrey Pines High School’s TP Players had the opening of their winter musical, “The Addams Family” on Wednesday, Feb. 22, in the Black Box Theatre. The actors, along with a live orchestra from the Torrey Pines music department, led by Amy Gelb, brought to life this classic, hilarious show. Director and drama teacher Marinee Payne did a superb job of casting sophomore Kaitlyn O’Leary as Wednesday Addams, and senior Lilly Ruffner as Morticia Addams, who actually look like the characters they portrayed. Sophomore Bennett Prag, who plays Uncle Fester, was
so dedicated to the production that he shaved his head for the role. From choreography by TPHS dance team members, to Meghan Carpenter, the student musical director, to set construction and costume design by drama production classes, Payne made this a very student-run production. The music, dancing and singing make the show entertaining and delightful. The show will be running through March 4 at 7:30 p.m. in the Black Box Theater. To reserve tickets go to torreypinesplayers.weebly.com.

The $50 per person cost to attend the UC San Diego Economics Roundtable includes refreshments and parking. Significant discounts are available for UC San Diego faculty, staff, students, and alumni. Rogoff is the former Chief Economist of the International Monetary Fund and the author of hundreds of widely cited academic books and articles. His 2009 book with Carmen Reinhart, “This Time is Different: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly,” reviewed the rich global history of debt and defaults. It
offered a prescient insight into the problems that the world economy was about to experience and became an international best seller. His new book, “The Curse of Cash,” documents that while new payment technologies are leading to less cash being used for legal transactions, there is an ever-growing demand for cash from the underground economy. Rogoff explores the challenges and opportunities these changes in the use of cash raise for policy.

Prep Boys Basketball
CCA advances to CIF semifinals Four years ago, Ryan Michaels chose to attend Canyon Crest Academy over La Costa Canyon and Torrey Pines. Both schools he passed on have a collage of banners draped in their gyms that memorialize their illustrious histories as athletic powerhouses in San Diego County. Michaels says he chose CCA for its impressive academic reputation along with a chance to play for coach Brian Baum who he knew from club basketball. Baum was patiently building the CCA basketball program into something that could someday favorably compete with the more established programs in San Diego, and Michaels wanted to help Baum take CCA to the next level. In his first three years, CCA had intermittent success but Michaels distinguished himself as one of the best pure shooters in San Diego with a penchant for hitting big shots with the game on the line. This year, Michaels and his teammates find themselves in the middle of a historic playoff run and only one win away from a chance to play for a CIF championship. Last Wednesday, CCA
Senior Ryan Michaels outscored Del Norte 46-9 in the second half to win their first playoff game since 2013, 63-30. Tyler Elsom 14, Jakob Travis 13, Aaron Acosta 11 and Michaels 10 led a balanced attack for the Ravens. On Saturday night CCA avenged last year’s first round playoff loss by outlasting a physical La Jolla team 71-53 to advance to the CIF Division 2 semi-finals. Michaels found his rhythm against La Jolla scoring a game high 25 points followed by Travis with 16

and Elsom with 10. The Ravens will host the Eagles of Orange Glen High School on Wednesday, March 1. The winner will advance to the CIF Division 2 finals which will take place on Saturday, March 4 at the Jenny Craig Arena at the University of San Diego. Michaels says his decision to attend CCA was a great one, and he hopes to wrap up his brilliant high school basketball career by bringing Canyon Crest their first CIF basketball title.
TPHS wins Southern California Youth Rugby championship BY TIM PICKWELL – “And a little child shall lead them.” Isaiah from the Good Book probably wasn’t speaking of high school freshmen. Maybe not even rugby. Regardless, the Torrey Pines High School varsity rugby club rode the strong kicking toe and head’s up play of its youngest ever player, freshman Oren Cargill, to a Southern California Youth Rugby High School Championship, 38-27 over La Costa Canyon on Feb. 25 at Mesa Community College’s football stadium. Cargill was on the varsity roster for exactly his second game of the season and scored the Falcon’s first 17 points on two trys, two conversions and a penalty kick; finishing with 23 points for the match. “We brought the freshman up for the playoffs,” said Head Coach Matty Sandoval of Oren Cargill. “And he truly was a difference maker. The kid’s foot is a gift. But, he’s not limited to that. He excels in every phase of the game.” The Falcons play in the top SCYR “Red Division” for high schools where all athletes attend the same school and the program is under the direction of the athletic department. During San Diego County League Play, Torrey Pines knocked off St. Augustine, Poway, Cathedral Catholic and Del Norte, before losing, 14-13 in the final seconds to La Costa Canyon in the season finale three weekends ago. That loss sent the Falcons on the road to Manhattan Beach last week to face the No. 1 seed from Los Angeles and Orange County, Mira Costa High in the SCYR semi-finals. The “child” Cargill, up for the first time, and playing full-back, helped the Falcons to an overtime victory over Mira Costa that sent the team back home to face LCC—who defeated the No. 2 seed from LA and OC.
TIM PICKWELL
Torrey Pines Captain Jackson Baere lifts the first place shield after Saturday's 38-27 victory over La Costa Canyon. Because it’s a TPHS-LCC rivalry, it wasn’t going to be easy. Down, 17-0, LCC scored four unanswered trys in a span of less than 20 minutes (8 minutes at the end of the first half, and two in the first 10 minutes of the second). Trys (similar to a Touchdown) are worth 5 points. The conversion (PAT) is worth 2. LCC missed all four of theirs, while Cargill was knocking them out like a metronome. Still, this run had LCC with all the momentum SEE RUGBY, A20

The Great Purim Circus will bring Purim to life in RSF March 12 This year’s Purim festivities in Rancho Santa Fe will take “center ring” as participants will enjoy a sensational Circus show while masquerading in true Purim style. “The Great Purim Circus” is Chabad Jewish Center of RSF’s creative twist to this year’s community celebration of Purim, the holiday commemorating the Jewish people’s salvation in Persia of old. The festivities will be held at Cielo Village on Sunday, March 12, from 2-4 p.m. featuring the Fern Street Circus, aerialists, jugglers, tight rope walkers and more. Billed as the most joyous date on the Jewish calendar, the day-long holiday commemorates the nullification in 356 B.C.E. of a Persian decree calling for the extermination of the Jewish people throughout the Persian Empire as told in the biblical Book of Esther. Chabad’s original spin on this age-old holiday has helped bring the spirit of Purim to RSF year after year. “The Great Purim Circus will combine ancient traditional celebration with an exciting and modern twist,” said

Participants will enjoy hamatash decorating, face painting, circus shows and workshops, food trucks and more. In addition, the celebration will feature a Circus Train ride and child-friendly reading of
the Book of Esther, known in Hebrew as the Megillah. “The event is focused primarily on spirit, fun, and tradition.” says Raskin who helped organize the event, “bringing our RSF Purim celebration up a notch!” In the spirit of Purim, participants are encouraged to come in costume, and there will be a competition for the most innovative or funny entries.

“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven” Ecclesiastes 3 :1. NKJV After a wonderful 26 years of owning and operating a retail gallery in Rancho Santa Fe, we are entering into a “New Season.” Our time in the Ranch has been extremely rewarding and fulfilling. We have loved so many things during our time here and the best part is all the fabulous people we have met. People who began as clients have become good friends and neighbors. There are several factors that bring about this “New Season,” the first being the drastic change in our Village itself. There never has been ample parking but now there is none. Since the close of the market over a year ago, we have witnessed a significant reduction in the number of people that come to town. People we speak with say there is no longer a reason to come to town – no shopping, no

parking, and they can do their banking online. The variety of people who headed the Association over the years have been very shortsighted in protecting retail in the village. Other communities have been able to find a balance between retail and commercial so both can thrive, yet for some reason we have not even attempted to do so. Another reason is the change in the antique industry itself. Tastes change and right now our style of antique décor is not popular. The internet has also caused a massive shift in the retail antique business. Instead of coming into a brick and mortar shop people prefer to shop online. These are just some of the reasons that have motivated us to ultimately make the decision to begin to close our retail location after all these years. The fact that we are getting older has nothing to do with it! In order to facilitate this we are having a liquidation sale,

Time for term limits
T
oo many school board members regard their elected positions as full-time careers and have served on school boards far longer than is reasonable. Term limits have been supported by citizens for many elected posts, including the president of the United States, state and federal office holders, and numerous county and city positions. Mark Powell, in a San Diego Union-Tribune op-ed last year, wrote that polling consistently shows support for term limits for elected officials. Yet it’s not done for school board members. Powell, who was just elected to the San Diego County Board of Education, wrote, “Serving as a school board member should not be a career” and that serving for decades can “lead to stagnation and a lack of fresh decision-making.” He said, “School boards thrive when new ideas are allowed to flourish” and that a school board works best “when people are allowed to infuse new ideas and come up with creative and innovative teaching strategies.” In this newspaper’s feature last August on the San Dieguito Union High School District candidates running for school board, incumbent Joyce Dalessandro is quoted as saying, “I love my job!”
Dalessandro was just elected last November to her sixth term. No one will deny that experience counts for something. But as Powell said, it’s not supposed to be a job or career. SDUHSD board member John Salazar agrees with Powell and supports the idea of term limits. Salazar, who was first elected in 2010 and re-elected in 2014, said in a March 3, 2016 San Diego Union-Tribune article, “It makes sense to get some turnover.” His proposal as envisioned would not apply to sitting trustees, only to future school board members. Dalessandro, who has served on the San Dieguito board since 1996, said in the same U-T story that she would not support term limits for school board members. “Term limits limit the choice the public has,” she is quoted as saying. “If you have a great board member, they then can get termed out. What is the intelligence there?” “It takes a long time to learn the in’s and out’s of a school district. It’s a very long learning process,” added Dalessandro, who if she finishes her term of office in 2020 will have served for 24 years as a San Dieguito trustee. Unjustly vilified That it’s a long learning process
until all is sold however long it may take. Our new hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10ish to 4ish. We are not retiring, no one in the Bible ever retired, but we are just going to do things differently. We plan to continue to buy and sell one piece or entire collections in order to serve the needs and wants of our specialized collectors, clients and designers. We also will continue to conduct on site Estate Sales to assist people in downsizing their homes. We love our gallery and will miss it and all of you who helped make our time so enjoyable and rewarding. We are however excited to be entering into our “New Season!” Thank you for your friendship and support over these 26 years. Blessings, Connie & Bill McNally
may be true. But almost all elected officials have a learning curve to get up to speed. No one walks in fully knowledgeable. Yes, long-time board members may be more educated about how school districts operate, due to longevity, and they have historical perspective. But school board members are not unique among all other elected positions. They do not require special knowledge or higher intelligence. It’s nothing that smart, committed individuals can’t learn. After serving multiple terms in office, trustees feel protective of the legacy they’ve helped to create and the need to preserve a particular ideological point of view. But this shuts out others who may have much to contribute and may be quick studies. Encouraging potential candidates with similar views to run in their stead is a tactic frequently employed by veteran trustees who decide they want out. This protects the long-time school board member’s agenda by ensuring that their pet issues remain intact and their particular ideology continues. But does it cross the line when trustees hand-pick their successors, get the backing of special interests, and work behind the scenes to unduly influence the election? Qualified candidates who can infuse a school district with fresh vitality, energy and new ideas are often discouraged when faced with the decision to challenge entrenched incumbents. It takes a special kind of person to take that on. Last year, there was no more
qualified, knowledgeable and energized San Dieguito school board candidate than Lucile Lynch. But because she was running against two long-time incumbents, Dalessandro and Beth Hergesheimer, she lost. Perhaps the bigger reason she lost is because she was unjustly vilified by the San Dieguito teachers union which campaigned vigorously for the two incumbents who had just months before approved a huge raise for teachers. Lynch is a woman who reasonably – and very respectfully – questioned board decisions about the budget, salary increases, spending priorities and vendor contracts. She was not, as the union insisted, a rubber stamp for an anti-teacher agenda. She was an independent thinker who owed allegiance to no one, not least of all the board minority. She was engaged, articulate, dedicated and intelligent. And yet she lost, a loss for students and parents in the district as well. Beating veteran incumbents, especially incumbents endorsed by the teachers union, can be an insurmountable challenge. Fresh enthusiasm For local school districts, the following trustees are serving three or more terms of four years each: San Dieguito Union High School District: • Joyce Dalessandro, first elected in 1996, now serving her sixth term which expires in 2020 • Beth Hergesheimer, first elected in 2004, now serving her fourth term which expires in 2020 SEE SUTTON, A22

Scripps Health’s 45th Annual Mercy Ball set for March 11
McNally’s will close in the Rancho Santa Fe Village. FROM MCNALLY, A1 site Estate Sales to assist people in downsizing their homes.” The doors will also remain open for at least a few months as a closing liquidation sale will continue until all of the merchandise is gone. The McNally Company Antiques was the shop on the corner of Paseo Delicias and La Granada in the Rancho Santa Fe Village for 20 years until 2014, when they consolidated into a smaller space next door. The corner space has sat vacant for the last two years. The decision to close was not an easy one for the McNallys and several factors were considered, but the foremost reason was the “drastic change in the village itself,” as retail stores have disappeared. “There never has been ample parking but now there is none. Since the close of the market over a year ago, we have witnessed a significant reduction in the number of people that come to town. People we speak with say there is no longer a reason to come

to town, no shopping, no parking, and they can do their banking online,” the McNallys’ message reads. “The variety of people who headed the Association over the years have been very shortsighted in protecting retail in the village. Other communities have been able to find a balance between retail and commercial so both can thrive, yet for some reason we have not even attempted to do so.” “We are sorry to hear about the closing of McNally Antiques.We support all of the businesses in the Village and have taken steps to help our merchants succeed,” said Christy Whalen, interim Association manager. “Twenty-two new angled parking spots were recently approved by the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. In addition, we are adding two-hour parking limits to 42 existing spaces to make parking more available for retail and restaurant customers. Finally, the Association is amending its regulatory code to offer incentives for building owners to bring more retail tenants into the Village to encourage people to shop in Rancho Santa Fe.”
The 45th Annual Mercy Ball will be held on Saturday, March 11, at 6 p.m. at the San Diego Marriott Marquis & Marina. Featuring fine cuisine, live musical entertainment and a high-energy live auction, the fundraising gala will benefit cancer care at Scripps Mercy Hospital. Scripps Mercy Hospital has a deep-rooted heritage of providing high-quality patient care for the
communities of central and south San Diego County. It was founded in 1890 by Mother Mary Michael Cummings and the Sisters of Mercy. The San Diego Marriott Marquis & Marina is located at 333 West Harbor Drive, San Diego, 92101.

FROM RUGBY, A14
Morgans handled the majority of the No. 9 duties, but moved over to outside center on defense to take up the slack for Goena—now at fullback. With all that in their heads, the Falcon’s backline still managed to sort out the situation and, now trailing deep in the second half, came right back with a strong, disciplined drive, capped by senior Prop Tanner Wyandt’s try in the far left corner. Cargill marched the ball out a ridiculous 45 yards (plus the posts being 10 yard deep) to get the best angle for the conversion. His 55 yarder cleared the crossbar by inches to make it, 31-27. The game was up for grabs and ripe for a sixth lead change as the clock ticked down, with Torrey Pines pinned deep in its own territory. But, the elusive Goena managed to break the LCC back-line, and then hit ridiculously fast wing Carson Ward who went 50 yards through the vaunted LCC back-line before finally being gang-tackled by the Mavericks. Goena was right there to take the ball out of the ruck and earn his second try of the night. Cargill put the ball through the posts for the final score, 38-27. “I am very proud of our senior leadership, especially our captain, Jackson Baere. We came from behind two weeks in a row to two outstanding rugby teams,” said Sandoval. “We are fortunate and humble champions of a Southern California high school rugby culture that I think rivals any in the country.”
and a 20-17 lead in the second half. But, Torrey Pines managed to steal a ball out of a ruck, and spin it to No. 8 Senior Blake Richards-Smith, who off-loaded to junior Matthew Goena (formerly the flyhalf, now playing fullback on defense; outside center on offense), as the Falcons regained the lead, 24-20. Fifteen minutes later, LCC scored in the corner to turn it around. This time, the conversion was good to put the Mavericks ahead, 27-24. Sandoval, in his 8th year as Torrey Pines head coach (five as a club sport; the past three “on campus”), made a series of unorthodox personnel moves over the team’s final month to make up for injured, lost players, and to give his remaining guys the best match-up opportunities. Backline studs Jack Nelson (broken ankle), Anton Schuh (leg) being absent, Sandoval relied on his remaining player’s savvy and experience to have them shift from different positions during the fluid play that is a rugby match. In the final, Goena, a junior, and a solid flyhalf starter all year, moved aside for Cargill, and played outside center on Offense, but then sprinted deep to fullback (similar to strong safety in football) on defense. Cargill played fullback against Mira Costa, but then flyhalf against LCC, and on at least one occasion stepped into a scrum as the No. 9 (scrum half/quarterback). Meanwhile, regular scrummy, junior Beau
FROM CUP, A1 purchasing tickets online, Fravel said at the news conference. This fall marks the first time the Breeders' Cup will be held at Del Mar in its 33-year history. The first Breeders' Cup was held at Hollywood Park in Los Angeles in 1984. Harper said in an interview that he was already running the Del Mar race meet when he attended the first Breeders' Cup. "I thought, wow, we've got to figure out how to get this thing." Harper, a 40-year Del Mar resident, and his staff have been actively pursuing the Breeders' Cup for more than a decade. In order to land the prestigious event, the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which runs the state-owned Del Mar fairgrounds and race track, in 2014 completed a $4.5 million widening of the track's turf course. Other upgrades, such as additional luxury suites, helped seal the deal, Harper said. "It's pretty easy for me to sell something like this," Harper said at the news conference, gesturing toward the panoramic ocean view behind him. "Of all the venues the Breeders' Cup has been to, this has to be the icing on the cake." Local officials hope this year's Breeders' Cup will be the first of many to be held at Del Mar. If the event is a success, said Harper, such a

scenario is likely. Other Breeders' Cup venues include the Santa Anita track in L.A. and Keeneland race track in Lexington, Kentucky. Next year's Breeders' Cup will be held at Churchill Downs, in Louisville, Kentucky, home of the Kentucky Derby, one of horse racing's triple crown events. Attendance at the Del Mar Breeders' Cup will be capped at 37,500 per day, much smaller than the crowds of more than 40,000 that attend opening day of the Del Mar summer race meet. The Breeders' Cup and Del Mar Thoroughbred Club are investing $4.5 million
in temporary luxury seating for the event, including two trackside "chalets" each seating about 900 people. Also, 900 box seats are being added to the Clubhouse and Stretch Run areas of the track. The infield will feature "The Beach," a sandy area that will hold up to 250 people with casual seating, umbrellas, a video screen and private bar. Shuttle services, as well as drop-off areas for Uber and taxis, will be available for attendees, as on-site parking will be limited to those with official parking credentials, according to event planners.
Over two days of racing, the Breeders' Cup includes 13 races -plus an "under-card," with purses and awards totaling $28 million. Local officials said the event, which attracts horse racing fans from around the world, is expected to generate tens of millions of dollars in economic activity for the San Diego region. The event will be broadcast on NBC. and a weeklong festival, including such events as concerts, a golf tournament and a 10k run, is also planned. Some events are planned for a temporary tent proposed to be erected at Del Mar's Powerhouse Park. At a Del Mar City Council meeting in December, council members supported the concept of the so-called "Barn at the Beach," but wanted more details before giving final approval. Sinnott said city staff is working with Breeders' Cup officials to gather more information about the planned events, and the proposal is expected to come back before the council within a few weeks. A mix of public and private events is planned, and Sinnott said the location of the tent at Powerhouse Park will encourage community involvement in the Breeders' Cup,. as well as bring visitors to Del Mar. "I think (the Breeders' Cup) is a chance for people who aren't familiar with Del Mar and all our assets, like the beaches and good weather, to experience Del Mar," Sinnott said.

COURTESY
‘This was our wedding day. The two people on the right of us are Diane and Jerry Rothenberg, who were our witnesses at City Hall in New York where we were married. I believe it was Dec. 1961. David was better at remembering dates than I am.’ — Eleanor Antin
David Antin’s Words Live On BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT avid Antin, poet, art critic, performance artist and one of the founding professors of UC San Diego’s Department of Visual Arts, died October 2016 at age 84. In his honor, his son, Blaise, established the David Antin Endowed Prize for Excellence in Visual Arts at UCSD. Another great tribute took place at the Getty Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 4, when hundreds gathered for a memorial honoring Antin with what he was known and loved for — a torrent of words. Born and raised in Brooklyn, Antin made a home here in what is now Carmel Valley, but traveled widely, performing the improvised “talk poems” he later turned into written works. His New York Times obituary ended with a quote from one of his books, “Talking at the Boundaries” that reads “if robert lowell is a poet then i don’t want to be a poet if robert frost was a poet I don’t want to be a poet if socrates was a poet i’ll consider it.” The Getty Research Institute hosted the memorial, since Antin had been a scholar-in-residence there, and they owned his archives. They screened old photos, played one of the tape-recorded poems, and 30 former students and colleagues stood up to share their memories — about 3-5 minutes each — a definite challenge for the gifted, articulate folks who were his friends. They rose to the challenge, and his wife of 55 years, performance artist/filmmaker/writer Eleanor Antin, didn’t have to stop them with the cowbell she’d brought along. Among the words spoken: Enthusiastic. Inspiring. Compassionate. Generous. Gracious. Insightful. Eloquent. Original. Clashing intelligence. A bracing, provocative voice. Tremendous humor and brio. A phenomenon. “Talking with David always made you feel you were on the verge of an epiphany,” one said. “His mind was magic,” noted another. His oldest friend, poet Jerome Rothenberg, offered a poem: “Can it be fair to write a love song to a friend? ... And does the poem exist when there is no one there to hear it?... Here is the death we feared/Infinite space to every side ... O my friends, there is no friend.” Artists Debby and Larry Kline called for audience participation in “Cacophony,” asking everyone to read out loud, and at the same time, a poem of Antin’s folded inside their programs. Each piece was different, and the blend of voices created a grand orchestration of his work. At the end, there was family: grandson Zachary
D
Diane and Jerome Rothenberg at the Getty memorial and his father, Blaise, sharing personal anecdotes, and Eleanor concluding with Antin’s poem “History,” a catalog of deaths, wrecks and disappearances. In an interview earlier, Eleanor had talked about their life together: The two New Yorkers — he from Brooklyn, she from the Bronx — first met at New York’s City College. They shared immigrant-parent backgrounds, February birthdays (he an Aquarius, she a Pisces) and an abiding love for art and each other. “He was a philosopher-poet, not only brilliant, but anecdotal and amusing,” she said. “He’d think of something that interested him, talk about it, move around it like he was lost in a forest, but he always found his way out. Then he’d turn the tape recordings of his talks into a literary art form.” He was an athlete, too, she said, going from high school football to running and weightlifting. Diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease 10 years ago, Antin gradually stopped doing performances, but he went on writing and working out until his very last days. His personal trainer summed things up at the memorial, “He gave his all, until there was nothing left in the tank.” This month, Eleanor will be in New York, reading from her latest book, “An Artist’s Life, by Eleanora Antinova,” a memoir of the former Ballets Russes star she created as a video alter ego decades ago. She will also be at the opening of “100 BOOTS: The LOST Picture Show,” an exhibit of photos from her famed 1970s postcard narrative that never fit into the original exhibitions. “I’ll survive,” Eleanor said, on her husband’s birthday, two days before the Getty memorial. “David helped make me tough, but ‘missing’ is too mild a word for the situation.”

In the cases of Cardiff and Encinitas, it’s less of an issue when only one trustee out of five is a long-timer. But in San Dieguito and Solana Beach, it’s time for new blood. No one would question that longevity offers advantages. But someone – especially a younger board member who still has children attending district schools – can offset the loss of a veteran by providing the district with new, exciting

He also advocated for meditation as a way to stimulate the brain — both for its ability to relax the brain in the short term and stimulate activity in the long term. “We are a spirit enveloped by a body, not a body with a spirit inside it. How we feed our spirit is a huge component to happiness,” he said. “Spirituality and meditation increases activity in your prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for retention, and works on your emotional brain, as well. For the effective working of your brain, it needs relaxation, too. So if you are having mental health issues, you could go see a psychiatrist, or you could see a monk and I think you would get better results.” After the well-attended talk, several commented that, pending a few too many scientific terms, they appreciated the lecture. “(Nasar) had a lot of great content … He encouraged me to continue on the path I’m on, which includes low sugar, a healthy diet and lots of laughter ... And while my husband and I go to the beach, I now think we need to spend even more time in nature,” said Nancy Lo. Added Mary Jane Oates, “I used to design medical curriculum and teach yoga, so the title of this lecture attracted me here. There weren’t a lot of surprises, it was just encouraging to hear him reinforcing the ideas you hear from a lot of other health experts.”
ways to think about problems and solutions and by contributing fresh enthusiasm that prevents school boards from becoming stagnant. Maybe the limit is two terms, maybe three. But beyond that, it becomes tedious and even obstructionist, as newcomers who would like to contribute to the process as public servants are shut out. At some point, veteran trustees need to step aside – and step aside completely – to give other voices a chance to be heard. Term limits may be the only way to force the issue. *************** There is potential good news on the legislative front for proponents of later school start times. On Feb. 13, Democratic state Sen. Anthony Portantino introduced Senate Bill 328 which would require all Calif. middle and high schools to start school no earlier than 8:30 a.m. The science is clear, he said, that “starting the school day later improves the quality of education, health and welfare of our children.” Portantino’s news release cited studies that confirm that insufficient sleep in teens “poses a public health risk and

Since funding is tied to attendance, Portantino’s office said that the Los Angeles Unified School District, for example, would gain about $40 million per year if attendance improved by just 1 percent. The benefits of later school start times for adolescents struggling with changing circadian rhythms have been irrefutably documented by leading scientific and medical professionals and organizations for so many years that it’s astonishing why districts like San Dieguito continue to be unresponsive. Excuses – like a disruption of bus schedules and after-school sports, and an inconvenience to parents and teachers – ring hollow when districts claim to support their students’ health, well-being and academic success. A 9 a.m. start time would be even better, but 8:30 a.m. is progress. School districts have ignored the data on the benefits of later start times for decades now. Finally, they may be forced to act in students’ best interests. Sr. Education Writer Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@gmail.com.
FROM WRITERS, A3 like them, which is empowering. 3) They get to be around people who love what they love. So many attendees said they ‘found their tribe’ at this conference.” According to Camilleri, fantasy, action and horror tend to be the most popular genres among attendees. Top workshops have been Grand World Building in Fantasy, Writing Great Action Scenes, and College Essay Writing, and all are back by popular demand. This year’s conference is bittersweet for Camilleri because it will be her last. “I love the excitement around the day, and the buzz you can feel during the whole event,” she said. “We start registration at 8 a.m. and there are always students turning up earlier because they’re so excited.” Camilleri remembers dozens of moments that stand out to her from past conferences. “One image that will always stay with me is of a student who had brought all his savings to the conference,” she said. “He was walking back to his car and his hands were piled high with 30 books he purchased and had signed by the authors at the conference. He looked so happy!” This year, Camilleri is looking forward to meeting keynote speaker Mary E. Pearson, whose book, The Adoration of Jenna Fox, will soon be heading to the big screen. She’s also excited about presenting an award to spoken word poet Viet Mai, who will close the conference with an inspirational performance.
Free CERT disaster prep program At 6 p.m. on Monday March 6, the Encinitas Fire Department and Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) will present the one-hour disaster preparedness program “Are You Ready” at the Encinitas Community and Senior Center, 1140 Oakcrest Drive. The free program is tailored to address disasters that are likely to affect local communities. Detailed steps to take before a disaster strikes will be discussed with the goal of minimizing the effects on homes and families. Materials will be provided that outline the supplies needed to support you and your family’s needs for up to 72 hours. Please RSVP to ayr@enccert.org.
CRIME Feb. 21 Residential burglary-16900 block of Going My Way, 3 p.m. Feb. 24 Petty theft from building-17600 block of La Bajada, 3 p.m.
“Last year, we initiated a Jonathan Maberry Inspiring Teens Award to acknowledge the author’s support of the conference and all that he does to promote teen literacy in San Diego,” said Camilleri. “It was such an honor to be able to present the award to him, and I can’t wait to present it to Viet Mai this year.” Camilleri is grateful to have worked with all the authors who’ve donated their time to appear at the conference, Krevat, her fellow Creative Writing Club students and the CCA Administration, especially Brett Killeen, Milan Perisic and the CCA ASB. Although Camilleri will soon be passing the baton to the new club president, you can bet she will be as busy as ever. “Once the conference is over, I am going to be focusing my time on enjoying my last few months in high school,” she laughed. “Oh, and deciding where I’ll be going to college!” The 6th Annual CCA Writers’ Conference will take place on Saturday, March 11 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Canyon Crest Academy, Proscenium and Media Center, 5951 Village Center Loop Road, San Diego. The event is for high school students only. Admission is free and includes programs, handouts, paper, pens and a free lunch from Chipotle Carmel Valley. Preregistration is required. For a donation of $50 or more, book clubs, organizations and individuals can sponsor a speaker and be acknowledged in the conference program.

Rady Children's North Coast Auxiliary presents 'Date Night for a Cause' benefit The sixth annual “Date Night for a Cause” at the Belly Up Tavern will be hosted by The North Coast Unit of Rady Children’s Hospital Auxiliary on March 31 from 5-8 p.m. One-hundred percent of the proceeds raised at this event will contribute to the Rady Children’s Hospital Auxiliary $2.5 million Endowment for Neuroscience at the Institute for Genomic Medicine. The goal is to make it possible to sequence the genome of every child who is treated and cared for at Rady Children’s, dramatically increasing their ability to diagnose disease and develop treatments that improve and save children’s lives. For extremely ill babies with unexplained symptoms, rapid genetic testing has been shown to yield life-changing results. The Rady’s Genomics Team recently purchased machines from the San Diego-based company Illumina, which allows the hospital to sequence the DNA of a child and both parents in as little as 26 hours — instead of the current standard of weeks or even months. Since September, over
25 families have had their DNA sequenced, and a majority of those cases have produced answers for the symptoms causing the newborns to be hospitalized. And in some cases, sequencing has provided information that directly changed a patient’s plan of care. In addition, the Genomics Institute is conducting groundbreaking research in neurogenetics that seeks to understand the genetic basis of diseases such as epilepsy, autism and mental disability, and develop new treatments. The Belly Up is located at 143 South Cedros Avenue, Solana Beach, 92075. Tickets can be purchased at http://radysncu.com/date-night-for-a-cause. Early bird tickets are available until March 17 for $65 per person. Tickets purchased after March 17 are $75 per person. Tickets purchased at the door are $85 per person. Ticket price includes live music from “Atomic Groove and the Fly Girlz,” heavy appetizers provided by Wild Note Café, a live auction and additional drawings.

Old Globe Theatre’s ‘The Blameless’ explores moving past tragedy BY DIANA SAENGER It’s unlikely to get through life without experiencing bad times. “The Blameless” acknowledges such and takes a look at the happy, close-knit Garcia family striving to overcome a tragic act of violence. Written by Nick Gandiello and directed by Gaye Taylor Upchurch, the play has its world premiere at The Old Globe Theatre in Balboa Park through March 26. “Nick is a really great writer with a fantastic ear for dialogue,” Upchurch said. “He’s able to make a very intimate, personal story about one family so universal. When you’re watching the play, you see that his magic includes everyone in the room. It’s fantastic. “I’m very interested in how we get beyond tragedy and move through life when things don’t go as we plan them. Nick was able to laser-in on this family and how they are coping ... He does an amazing job of injecting grace, humor and pathos ... people writing about tragedy can be sentimental or brutal. In my experience of grief, we as humans have to find joy somewhere and survive. This family that Nick put together is in the process of doing that.” Upchurch said Gandiello wrote “The Blameless” from his own experiences. His characters must find a way to hold everything together as they welcome to dinner the one man who might help them heal — or reopen their wounds. “I’m not sure how much really relates to his life,” she said. “But, he did experience

Neurogenx treats nerve pain at the source BY DAVID L. CODDON Surgery-phobes (and you’re probably one of them), take heart. If you suffer from neuropathic symptoms or neuromuscular pain, you’ve got the option of a non-invasive treatment that its proponents say is 87 percent effective. Dr. “The concept is Amirhassan called electro-signal Bahreman therapy, or EST,” says Dr. Amirhassan Bahreman, medical director at the Neurogenx NerveCenter in La Mesa, part of a nationwide chain that has been open since October. The FDA-approved and patented Neurogenx Treatment employs high-frequency electronic waves that penetrate muscular tissue where pain and discomfort persist. According to the Neurogenx website, “The treatment creates changes at the body’s cellular level that reduce swelling, remove excess fluids and waste products, alter Ph
levels and increase cellular metabolism.” “Inflammation of the nerve is the major reason for nerve damage,” explains Bahreman, who is the only board-certified neurologist in San Diego County who offers this treatment as an alternative to narcotics or invasive surgery. “With this technology, the (developers of Neurogenx Treatment) were able to prove that the inflammation can be reduced.” The ideal candidate for this treatment, he says, is a person suffering from peripheral nerve damage. It has also been available to patients with diabetes, fibromyalgia and even vitamin deficiency. Treatment is not a one-time-only proposition. “You have to be committed to the program for it to be effective,” Bahreman stresses. That program generally entails 40-minute sessions twice a week for three months, all of it on an outpatient basis. “The response rate is very high,” says Bahreman, who has more than 14 years of experience in neurology

Neurogenx NerveCenter is at 8851 Center Drive, Suite 608, La Mesa. and whose regular practice in the office is called the Neurological and Pain Institute. “The day and night difference we see in some patients is there.” Presently, Neurogenx Treatment is not covered by insurance, though Bahreman said some private insurers have made exceptions. But he points
out that the cost over time is not prohibitive. “It differs from case to case, of course, but when you break it down to the number of treatments, I think it’s less than what you’d pay for a chiropractor or for massage therapy.” Since some patients may be new to EST or perhaps even wary about it,
Bahreman offers complimentary consultations to each prospective new patient. Because its patients come into the office so often during the treatment program, “they know us by name and ask us what’s going on in our lives, and we do the same,” says Eileen Craker, who is Bahreman’s physician liaison and who works with other physicians on referrals for this treatment. “We want to create almost a family with our patients.” Bahreman said he believes that the future is promising for patients of Neurogenx Treatment on both a financial and a medical level. “In the next five years,” he says, “it’ll be even more effective and more affordable.” — Neurogenx NerveCenter is at 8851 Center Drive, Suite 608, La Mesa.

Safety sewn into moms’ workout gear BY PAM KRAGEN The 7th annual Finish Chelsea’s Run event will return to Balboa Park March 4 and many of its runners will be lining up in leggings and headbands that sport a unique sunflower design. The sunflower fitness gear was developed by GRACEDBYGRIT, an all-women Solana Beach company that was partly inspired by Chelsea King, the late Poway teen for whom the fundraising 5K race is named. King, who loved sunflowers, was killed by a sexual predator while out for a solo evening jog in Rancho Bernardo on Feb. 25, 2010. After her death, her parents, Kelly and Brent, formed the Chelsea’s Light Foundation, which is dedicated to toughening laws against sexual predators nationwide. That was the same year Cardiff resident Kimberly Caccavo and her triathlon coach, Kate Nowlan of Solana Beach, first met Kelly King. She came to speak to triathletes who were raising money for the foundation, and one thing she said to the group stuck in Caccavo’s mind. “Her mom said if only Chelsea had a phone or a whistle with her that night, maybe she’d still be alive,” she said. That was the seed that grew into GRACEDBYGRIT, a women’s athletic wear company that includes a flat, high-pitched, water-safe attachable whistle with every item sold, as well as hidden pockets, large enough for a cellphone, keys or credit card, sewn into the waistbands and sleeves. “The inspiration was Chelsea, but also many friends told us that running made them feel fit and powerful but it was scary running on a trail by themselves,” said Caccavo, who is company president and CEO. She and Nowlan, who is chief operating officer, started GRACEDBYGRIT in 2013, and since then the company has sold more than $2 million in women’s apparel in its flagship store in Solana Beach, a second pop-up shop in Las Vegas and online. The company has 11 employees, all women, as well as another 16 women who work in the shops. Nowlan said the company’s mission isn’t just to sell clothes, but to empower girls and women.
BILL WECHTER/SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE
Co-founders of GRACEDBYGRIT women's athletic wear company Kimberly Caccavo, left, shows a safety whistle and Kate Nowlan shows a pants pocket feature that will hold a cell phone, in the company's retail store in Solana Beach. The company regularly hosts evening events by women authors and designers and it hosts “Gritty Girls” workshops for groups of eight to 25 tween and teen girls, where they’re taught self-esteem and confidence-building skills. GRACEDBYGRIT also raises money for Chelsea’s Light. Up to $50 spent on each pair of Chelsea Leggings (sold on the company website as well as on the Finish Chelsea’s Run registration page) goes to the foundation. Caccavo said the company’s name was inspired by the challenges women overcome in their lives. “Every woman has this gritty moment in their life that gives
them grace,” she said. “It’s about women being safe and strong and capable and able to do what they want to achieve their dreams.” Caccavo was a chemical and materials engineer who was a researcher for NASA’s Space Shuttle program, then she worked in the telephone directory industry. But when she was widowed at age 30, she decided to take a risk and move to Venezuela, where she helped privatize the country’s telephone industry. While there, she narrowly escaped being kidnapped (a common threat at the time for foreign executives). Now in her 50s, she and her second husband are raising a 16-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter. It was through their son that she met Nowlan, who was the boy’s swim coach. Nowlan, who has two teenage daughters, brings the athlete’s perspective to the company. All of the clothing has SPF 50 sun protection, which is a big hit with women athletes. The company also uses compression-style fabrics that she said can make any woman, regardless of her size, feel better about how she looks. The company started out selling just eight items of running gear, but when the women realized how well its Italian-made quick-dry fabrics held up in saltwater and other conditions, they expanded their line. Today, the clothing — all made locally in National City, San Diego and Orange County factories (except for the whistles) — includes gear for yoga, snow sports, water sports, cycling, hiking, tennis, golf and dance. Prices range from $29 for shorts to $118 for leggings and jackets. Nowlan said the company’s long-term plan is to one day be the top women’s athletic apparel company in the world. For now, the goal is more simple. “We want to be a household name that women associate with power and feeling great about themselves and taking care of themselves,” she said. GRACEDBY GRIT is located at 153 N Highway 101, Suite 103, Solana Beach. Visit gracedbygrit.com — Pam Kragen is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN El Mirador (Spanish for lookout) is a group of Mayan pyramids and settlements, abandoned since 1,000 BC, that occupy the most secluded nooks of one of Central America’s largest rainforests in northern Guatemala. Discovered in 1926, they’ve been the subject of sporadic study until 2003 when Richard Hansen, who spoke at the
“Bella Guatemala” event Feb. 16 at the Pantai Inn on Coast Boulevard, established major investigation, stabilization and preservation programs onsite. Hansen, who has a Ph.D. in Archeology, told this newspaper that El Mirador is “a scientific jewel,” and its environment is “pristine.” “It’s a virgin jungle, and it has been that way for 2,000 years ... and in the middle of it are the ruins,” he explained. Asked why the settlement is so well preserved, Hansen said it’s because it is surrounded by a lush rainforest with a three-day hike to the nearest road. “Or you can helicopter in,” he added.
During “Bella Guatemala,” event attendees learned about Hansen’s research and efforts to preserve El Mirador, alongside other cultural and historical aspects about the country from Los Angeles-based Bella Guatemala Travel environmentalists and travel professionals. The Foundation for Anthropological Research & Environmental Studies (FARES), an institution Hansen created, strives to preserve El Mirador, support the site’s research and work with surrounding communities. “What’s going on in El Mirador is devastating,” Hansen said, “There’s massive deforestation, (locals) are cutting hundreds of

thousands of acres of rainforest to render drug-traffic and support cattle.” To save the jungle and the Mayan ruins, Hansen said researchers have created a model based on tourism that will sustain the forest for 500 years to come. “That’s the whole purpose,” he said. “And that model is based on tourism, prosperity and conservation. If you put all those issues together, you have a home run.” Rodolfo Castillo and Gao Vilé are two Guatemalan musicians, established in Miami, who are involved with FARES and who attended the event at Pantai Inn to SEE MAYAN, B19

her own efforts and with help from many kind people she became a free woman. She went on to become an elementary school Author Julia Chadwell teacher for 20 years. Her mission is to raise awareness of domestic abuse and help others by sharing her story.
Father Joe’s Villages’ fourth annual Taste of the Village to be held March 1 Last year, three residents at Father Joe’s Villages turned to the nonprofit’s Freddy Evarkiou Culinary Arts Program for job training on their journey toward self sufficiency. Now that those students have graduated from the program and moved on to culinary careers, the next class is gearing up to cater Father Joe’s Villages’ fourth annual Taste of the Village. Father Joe’s Villages will give behind-the-scenes tours and treat guests to an evening of fine dining at the event on Thursday, March 16. Students from the Freddie Evarkiou Culinary Arts Program will prepare French country cuisine and serve partygoers atop Father Joe’s Villages’ building at 16th and Commercial streets. “The food and views at Taste of the Village are incredible, but our purpose is much greater,” says Deacon Jim Vargas, president and CEO of Father Joe’s Villages. “There are thousands of men, women and children on our streets - we see potential in each and every one. Through events like this, we can
help more people in our community achieve self-sufficiency.” At this year’s event, attendees will have the exclusive opportunity to hear first-hand success stories from people who found their path out of homelessness through Father Joe’s Villages’ services. Staff and board members will also mingle with guests and share stories over gourmet food and drinks. The Freddie Evarkiou Culinary Arts Program began in 2002 to prepare people who are homeless for careers as chefs and culinary professionals. Students complete classroom and practical trainings and intern at local restaurants. They also receive help in preparing for interviews and job searching. All proceeds from Taste of the Village, sponsored by Banner Bank, will benefit Father Joe’s Villages work toward ending homelessness in our region, one life at a time. Tickets are $50 per person and can be purchased online. For more information about Father Joe’s Villages, visit neighbor.org.

RANCHO SANTA FE REVIEW - MARCH 2, 2017 - PAGE B15
Review: Brava Kiryayeva!
--Below is a review of the Feb. 24 Community Concerts of Rancho Santa Fe event featuring concert pianist Alina Kiryayeva performing her show titled “Moving Pictures.”
BY DANA WHEATON,
Professor of music, Orange Coast College Alina Kiryayeva sparkled in her elegant green dress as she walked to the microphone in the beautiful setting of the Sanctuary, also allowing use of the Sanctuary’s Concert Grand. She told us that she was going to play “Bumblebee,” short for the “Flight of the Bumblebee” by Rimsky-Korsakov. It’s a virtuosic piece and she played it at a furious tempo on the piano. Chopin’s Waltz No. 1 in Eb Major followed, which is also known as the Grand Valse Brillante. Alina got a laugh saying she heard it in a Tom and Jerry cartoon. This would be the first of many pop culture references, including the Nocturne in c# minor from the soundtrack of The Pianist & Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Her technique had such contrast, from ebullient fortes (loud) to gossamer pianissimos (very soft). She talked about the challenge of étude No. 5, known as the Black Key étude. Prior to Chopin, études were exercises with little musical or emotional
Pianist Alina Kiryayeva

depth. Alina mentioned that Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata (No. 14 in c# minor) was used in over 200 films. The common opinion is that it is a romantic piece. Beethoven referred to the Moonlight sonata later in his life in connection to the poem about a girl praying for her dying father. The first movement was apparently going to be a song with the words of that poem, but
it never happened. In the Allegretto and Presto agitato movements, her accents were clear and crisp. Alina discussed the concert grand piano as a microcosm of the symphony orchestra, the full range of notes available to an orchestra. To illustrate, she played the pas de deux from Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker. Her nimble hands captured the harp,
the strings, the brass – exhilarating. Alina talked about her childhood in the Ukraine, her mom and dad each had a piano as well as young Ms. Kiryayeva in their small apartment. Only when she was older did she figure out why they always had new neighbors! Her first solo recital was at the age of 8, practicing five hours or more daily. I estimate that she has over 40,000 hours of
preparation behind her – and it sounds like it! Alina delighted us with excerpts from Debussy’s Pour le piano, the Prelude and from the Suite bergamasque – the enchanting Clair de Lune. That was the second piece about the moon. With her astounding technique, it was anticipated she would perform Liszt. Alina talked about Liszt’s ability as a pianist as well as his legendary effect upon women – what was characterized as Lisztomania. Fans would fight over his handkerchiefs and gloves. Then she launched into La Campanella, the third of the Grandes études de Paganini, a nearly impossible piece, but played to perfection. For balance, she followed that with Liebestraum (Love Dream) No. 3. Alina made her second reference to Tom and Jerry. The cartoon inspired her to learn the Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 or “Cat Concerto” in the cartoon – her finale. The standing ovation was so loud and long, she played a Rachmaninov Prelude as an encore. A stunning performance! You don’t want to miss the next concert, the Equinox Little Big Band on April 1. Remember, Community Concerts is the best party in town! Tickets and short video clips of each concert are available on the website, www.ccrsf.org.

Thge cast of ‘The Illusion,’ playing through March at North Coast Repertory Theatre.
‘The Illusion’ is fantastic fun at North Coast Rep Theatre BY DIANA SAENGER magine you are aging, have lost contact with your only son, and yearn to see him once more. That’s where we find Pridamant (John Herzog), who, desperate to locate his long-lost Clindor (Michael Polak), visits a sorceress (Kandis Chappell) hoping she’ll use her magic to find him in “The Illusion,” which runs through March 19 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre. Pridamant shows up at what looks like a mountain cave (great stage set by Marty Burnett) and is greeted by The Amanuensis (John Greenleaf), the sorceress’ servant. She enters with a huge walking stick, her long, shear scarves blowing in the air. She walks to a portal and conjures a scene with Clindor and a few ladies. Scenes come and go with different characters involved. Clindor is sure he is in love with the beautiful Melibea (Sharon Rietkerk) and pursues her. But there are others who want to claim her love, like the funny and always fashionable Matamore (Andrew Ableson). However, the maid (Christina L. Flynn) seems to want Clindor for herself and carries out a little of her own trickery. Almost every scene brings laughs (and sometimes confusion) with all the shenanigans that go on, and the characters sometimes change names. Much of this seems to confuse Pridamant, but he always steps up when his son is in peril, pressing the sorceress to change what he sees. Each cast member pulls off their role(s) superbly. Herzog is stern and demanding as Pridamant. Chappell excels at her lengthy dialogue and magic scenes. Rietkerk and Flynn are cute, flirty and mischievous. Ableson and Polak demonstrate their manhood and determination to out-do each other. Greenleaf brings more laughs with his actions than words. The setting in 17th century France allows for exceptional scenes, such as fencing, which brings even more laughs and mystery to the plot. North Coast Rep Artistic Director David Ellenstein, who once had a role in the production in Arizona, does a great job directing. The costumes by Abby Caywood are eye-popping. ■ IF YOU GO: “The Illusion” runs through March 19 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets from $39.

For cold season et al zinc’s a real zinger
L
ike Hippocrates, I’m going to “make food my medicine,” by amping up a store of zinc-rich treasures in my diet to kick any blossoming cold viruses under the bus. Keep in mind, zinc levels have to be kept in a delicate balance like Baby Bear’s porridge — too little will cause deficiency problems, while too much will allow damaging free radicals to run rampant. The recommended daily dosage for adult males is 11 milligrams, slightly less for women (8 milligrams), but more if you are pregnant or breast-feeding (12 milligrams). While vegetarians should consume higher amounts since plant-based zinc is not absorbed as well by the body as animal-based ones.
Best zinc sources can be found in these foods:
1. Pomegranate heads the fruit list, followed avocados, and blackberries. Toss these ruby gems in green salads, smoothies, or stews and sauces to top wild-caught fish or chicken. 2. Soybeans are rife with zinc (9 milligrams in one cup), along with limas, chickpeas, kidneys, green beans and peas.
Roasted soybeans (organic, please) make a great portable snack, while other forms of soy, especially tofu and tempeh dial up salads, stir fries, egg and grain dishes. 3. Sprinkle toasted or raw wheat germ on both savories and sweets. This small, edible part of the wheat kernel has a concentrated load of vitamins and minerals to bolster the immune, digestive and cardiovascular systems, along with an anti-aging bonus. 4. Turn over a new leaf with spinach, endive and Swiss chard in warm wilted salads, Italian wedding soups, smoothies and pastas. 5. Beef it up, so long as it’s organic and grass-fed, or lean, immune boosting lamb as a hearty ragu over egg noodles, a herb encrusted rack, or stewed with assorted root vegetables. 6. Go nutty with cashews packed with almost 8 mg of zinc in a single cup, or pine nuts, pecans, almonds, walnuts and hazelnuts to bake, snack, toss, grind or blend in assorted dishes. Pumpkin, sesame, chia and flaxseeds also give a hearty dose of protein and zinc. 7. Food of the Gods, super dark chocolate with cocoa content of 70 percent or greater is not only an
■ For the dressing: 1/2 cup olive or walnut oil, 1 tablespoon white balsamic or red wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 garlic clove (minced), 1/3 teaspoon honey ■ Method: Whisk dressing ingredients in glass bowl and set aside. Heat oil (2 tablespoons) on medium in large skillet. Add bread chunks, sprinkle with salt, toast until golden. Combine bread chunks and remaining salad ingredients in large salad bowl. Toss with dressing, and let sit for one hour. Top with chopped basil. Serves 4. antioxidant-rich mood elevator, but has an impressive amount of zinc (6 mg per cup). Indulge in raw, baked, melted, shaved, blended or drizzled chocolate on everything but your shoes. 8. Go wild for mushrooms, especially white button, morel, crimini, Portobello, oyster and shiitake for their meaty texture, rich flavor profile, versatility and immune boosting store of zinc. 9. The world is your oyster with these high-octane bivalves containing the greatest amount of the mineral of all food sources on the planet. Six oysters are packed with 33 mg

of zinc. While oysterphiles love eating them raw in the half shell, it’s safest to broil, bake or toss these sea treasures in a cioppino or fish chowder. 10. Crab and lobster, the gold standard of seafood, are also zinc powerhouses, so indulge in crab cakes, lobster bisques and rolls, crustacean cocktails, and this delightful Tuscan bread salad called panzanella (recipe provided), even more divine when tossed with succulent chunks of lobster and crab. — Catharine Kaufman can be reached at kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Preserving Your Historical Property At GDC Construction, we know it is important to preserve the history and charm of our unique community of La Jolla. With so many architectural gems in this “jewel” we call home, we passionately believe in historical preservation. Over the years, we have worked on dozens of preservation remodels of historical properties. These include: my grandfather’s remodel of the La Jolla landmark the Athenaeum in 1956, which now serves as an art and music library; my father’s 1984 remodel of the YMCA La Jolla Firehouse as a youth center; my renovation of the La Jolla Community Center; and GDC’s recent remodel of La Jolla Firehouse 13.
The San Diego Historical Resources Board is responsible for designating a local home or building as historic. Then, the California Mills Act allows homeowners to get a tax rebate for maintaining a historical property, an incentive that can go a long way to helping preserve the character that people have come to associate with La Jolla. Preserving a historic property isn’t always simple. If you are interested in restoring or preserving a historic property, there are some important steps to consider. If you are interested in purchasing an older property and want to know if it is listed as a historic home, you can research the home’s deed trust to discover its original build-date and learn more about its history. The National Register of Historic Places and the National Trust for Historic Preservation provide lists of historic homes and properties for sale. Also, you can check with local building conservation associations or historic societies in your area, such as the La Jolla Historical Society. However, if you are wanting to permit a significant alteration, or demolition, to a building that is older than 45 years old, it

will automatically trigger a review by the historic resources board during the permit process. If the property has characteristics of a specific style, is associated with persons or events that were historically significant, or a master architect, designer or builder, you will need a site-specific historic report. This report will be reviewed by the historic resources board and at a hearing, it will be determined if you property is designated historic or not. Historic properties will come with restrictions on what you may do to alter the exterior of the building and landscape, but not the interior. Therefore, it is crucial to always make sure you hire a licensed contractor who specializes in restoration or rehabilitation. Also, there is a big difference between “restoring” and “rehabilitating” historic properties. Restoring a house means returning the appearance of both the exterior and interior of the structure to the time period in which it was built. For homes of a certain age, strict preservation usually isn’t possible. For example, if the house did not originally have indoor plumbing, but you plan to live
in the home and don’t want that level of “rustic authenticity,” then you will likely not choose a strict restoration! Another reason not to seek strict restoration might be historic renovations made to the home, especially if provenance comes into play. For example, if Marilyn Monroe previously owned your house and retiled a wood floor in hard-to-find pink ceramic tile, there may be a strong historic appeal to keeping that addition. Restoring can be costly, but recreating old woodwork and other handcrafted elements of the original home with original artisanal materials will also restore its value and will boost your appreciation of your historic home. Rehabilitating an historic house means making it functional and livable for contemporary life, while maintaining its important historic and architectural features.

always a fascinating society because they were the only tropical forest society that developed complexity,” Hansen said.
Guatemala travel
Bella Guatemala Travel owner Elsie YiDonoy poses with Richard Hansen’s book ‘El Mirador’ at the Pantai Inn. FROM MAYAN, B6 support the cause. “When you’re at El Mirador, you can feel the vibrations of the people who once lived there,” said Vilé. “You can feel the voices and hums of those people in the middle of the silence, embraced by the jungle, and that’s gorgeous.” For Castillo, hiking up to “Tiger,” one of the pyramids, was a “magic” experience. “It makes you feel so little when you see the immense treasure that we have,” he said. The El Mirador collection of settlements are, according to Hansen, bigger than Los Angeles, and “connected by a web of ancient highways.” Danta, a 236-foot-high Mayan temple that’s a part of it, is one of the biggest pyramids in the world. “The Mayans were
Elsie YiDonoy, who was born in Guatemala but lived in L.A. most of her life, first visited her country of birth in 2004. “My sister and I had a bad experience. The hotels and restaurants we went to weren’t good. So I came back and I started Bella Guatemala Travel to help people have a good experience (in my country),” she said. Since then, she sells all-inclusive tours to Guatemala. “I don’t sell anything that I haven’t tried first,” she said. Now, YiDonoy is collaborating with Hansen to help El Mirador reach the U.S. tourism market. Her company is organizing two “Lost Kingdoms of the Maya” tours (May 3-14 and June 25-July 8) that, among other Mayan ruins, include a visit via helicopter to El Mirador, where tourists will visit the excavation sites led by Hansen ($6,195 per person). Another reason to preserve El Mirador, Hansen explained, is the environment that surrounds it. “It’s the last large rainforest in Central America,” he said. Vilé added that the woodland acts as a “lung” for certain areas in the United States. “When there are fires at El Mirador, the smoke reaches Houston. In the same way, the oxygen generated also reaches Texas. If instead of a forest you build a city and a highway, what’s going to come over is a bunch of smog from non-regulated trucks.” ■ Want to learn more?
