San Dieguito board member’s bid to end CIF sports defeated BY KAREN BILLING San Dieguito Union School District (SDUHSD) board trustee John Salazar voted against the district high schools competing in CIF sports in the 2017-18 school year until the district fixes what he believes is “broken.” At the June 8 SDUHSD board meeting, Salazar said that the CIF has 16 operating principles of “Pursuing Victory with Honor” and he does not believe the district is following those principles — those that include promoting

sportsmanship, good character and maintaining responsibility for the quality and integrity of CIF programs. “I think there is a problem with our sports, probably at all of the high schools,” Salazar said, referencing his concerns with pay for play, coach nepotism and coach affiliations with club teams. “A tremendous amount of time should be taken to clean it up.” When board members asked what it would SEE CIF, A10

Parents of special education students made their voices heard on June 8, protesting before the San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) meeting and continuing on to the SDUHSD board room where they handed over a petition alleging unequal treatment and facilities for special education students. “Stop segregating our students, stop ignoring our students, stop underestimating our students, stop treating our children as unequal and undeserving,” La Costa Canyon parent Janet Schenker said, wearing a red shirt with a stop sign emblazoned on the front. The parents’ 41-page petition outlined the many ways they hope the district can reform special education programs in the district, as well as the adult transition program school (ATP), calling out

an “inadequate” curriculum, too low expectations and a lack of equal treatment in facilities planning. If the district does not respond to the petition’s requests, the parents may consider filing a complaint with the Office of Civil Rights. Parents of students with disabilities have spoken out on their concerns about the special education program several times over the last few years — resulting in the formation of a special education parent forum in the summer of 2016. The forum met several times over the last year. “The message here is despite some parent input, we are not being heard,” said La Costa Canyon parent Lucile Lynch. “There are changes to be made.” What pushed many parents’ frustrations over the edge was seeing the new ATP classrooms at the Earl Warren Middle School campus during a tour in May. The ATP classrooms are housed in two portables with SEE SDUHSD, A20

TPHS Robotics Team #3647 Millennium Falcons finishes stellar year

BY JONATHAN TATOR Torrey Pines High School’s Robotics Team #3647 Millennium Falcons finished up with their strongest year to date. Headed by senior Team Captain Nicole Martindale, the team finished #1 overall out of 66 teams, as well as Alliance Captain at the San Diego Regionals presented by Qualcomm, held at the Del Mar Fairgrounds in March.

Eliminated in the first round of playoffs due to an untimely rope snap, literally at the last second, they nonetheless earned an invitation to the 2017 FIRST Robotics Championships in Houston, Texas in April. The team performed well enough to qualify for the playoffs and advanced through quarterfinals into the semifinal round of their division where their alliance was

eventually defeated. Nicole was assisted by a whole team of talented student/engineers and they look poised for future success as the team primarily consists of underclassmen. Millennium Falcon Team Captains next year will be Surya Madhan and Derek Rusher. Go Falcons! — Jonathan Tator is a TPHS math teacher and Robotics Team advisor

Local resident retraces Roosevelt’s footsteps in the Amazon BY SEBASTIAN MONTES here were times when Del Mar resident Marc André Meyers — drenched in sweat, swarmed by mosquitoes and bees, malaria and cannibals an ever-present danger — knew the desperate straits in which Teddy Roosevelt had found himself a century earlier. The former U.S. president, still smarting from his humiliating defeat in the 1912 election two years prior, had ventured into an uncharted corner of the Amazon, down a tributary known ominously as the River of Doubt. Malaria-stricken and hobbled by an infected gash in one leg, Roosevelt, in his delirium, commanded his fellow expeditioners to forge ahead rather than to doom them to the fate to which he was certain he had fallen. When Meyers retraced that harrowing journey 100 years later, his crew did so as faithfully as possible — navigating the river in flimsy pack canoes, portaging around boulder-choked rapids, slogging days on end through the jungle with mules and machetes. “We didn’t want to use any modern equipment. We didn’t have a doctor. We didn’t have anything,” he recalled one recent morning in his office at UC San Diego, where he is a professor in material science. “We almost couldn’t get through. If we had been one more day without water, we would have

T

died.” For the past 30 years, Meyers’ work has focused on the effects of dynamic events like explosions in order to lay the foundation for new types of armor. Besides his many scientific papers, he has penned several novels, many of them set in South America. That passion dates back to his childhood in Brazil, where his engineer father from Luxembourg had taken the family in order to build a steel plant in the jungle. It was there that he developed a fascination for the Amazon and the tribes living in it. But it wasn’t until decades later, when he read Candace Millard’s 2006 book on Roosevelt’s expedition that he plotted his return. “I turned the last page and said, ‘I have to do this,’” Meyers said. The 1914 expedition was co-led by Candido Rondon, an army colonel and legendary Brazilian explorer. He had built his renown in part by being among the first to lay telegraph lines across huge swaths of once-impenetrable jungle. Rondon had been at it for 10 years when Theodore Roosevelt arrived in South America to give a series of lectures. “Roosevelt was not in a very good financial position. He was more of a dreamer and doer and politician than he was a businessman,” Meyers said. “When he arrived in Rio de Janeiro, one of the ministers told him about a

COURTESY

Marc André Meyer — a Del Mar resident and professor at UC San Diego —ventured into the Amazon in 2014 and 2015 to recreate Teddy Roosevelt’s famous 1914 expedition. Meyers details his nearly fatal journey in his book River of Doubt, which he wrote for a presentation earlier this year to The Explorers Club in New York City river that no one had ever gone down. Roosevelt being like he was — hotheaded —immediately said yes. He didn’t give it much thought.” What ensued is now known as the Rondon-Roosevelt Scientific Expedition, a plan to collect specimens and chart the river for about five months that turned into Roosevelt’s brush with death. Whereas Millard detailed the expedition with a historian’s precision, Meyers’ account takes a scientist’s and explorer’s tack of recreating every step

— something that had never before been tried. His journey had two goals beyond retracing the original: to collect plant and animal specimens for research into their material structure and to measure the many environmental changes mankind has wrought over the intervening century. Meyers split his effort into two parts: the river portion in 2014 and the land portions in 2015. In some parts, his crew included Jeffrey Lehmann, cinematographer and a fourth-generation Del Mar resident.

The challenges they faced went far beyond topography and environment. “There is a lot of anti-American sentiment because they have this idea that Americans want to take over the Amazon,” Meyers said. “We almost got into it with the same tribe that gave Rondon and Roosevelt problems. Their chief is not a very nice guy. He didn’t let us go through their land. He threatened to arrest us. He sent his thugs after us. They were cannibals, and the chief even hinted at this to us.” When word of his journey got out, it earned him an invitation to speak to the San Diego chapter of The Explorers Club. His tale went over so well that he was called up to the club’s hallowed chambers in New York City. His manuscript — part diary, part travelogue, part scientific compendium — was written for that presentation. Meyers has also published several papers on the feathers, fish scales and seeds collected during his journey. He even built a special gauge to measure the force of the piranha’s bite. But after all that, one portion of the Rondon-Roosevelt expedition remains to be retraced. Meyers plans to finish that off this summer, and hopefully rally support for a monument to the Rondon-Roosevelt expedition. River of Doubt: Reliving the Epic Amazon Journey of Roosevelt and Rondon on its Centennial is available in paperback via Amazon.com.

Local doctor's new book promotes healthy lifestyle BY JOE TASH As a practicing cardiologist, Dr. Bret Scher is fully versed on the tools of modern medicine, from drugs to tests to procedures for addressing a variety of ailments. But his fondest dream is that patients won’t develop the conditions that require his intervention in the first place. Scher, a local resident, has put the knowledge he has gained over 23 years of practicing medicine, as well as his observations and research, into a new book: “Your Best Health Ever! The Cardiologist’s Surprisingly Simple Guide to What Really Works.” The self-published paperback volume came out about two months ago, and is available on Amazon.com and on Scher’s website, www.drbretscher.com. In the book, Scher outlines what he calls the five “pillars” of good health, which include developing the correct mindset to achieve better health, good nutrition, movement and exercise, stress management and good sleep habits, and building community. He also details how people can set realistic goals for improved health and achieve them. While he does not advocate abandoning life-saving drugs or surgery for those who need them, he is convinced that the pendulum has swung too far toward medical intervention, rather than emphasizing healthy lifestyles that can prevent disease. “I think medicine has gone far too much to the side of a pill for every problem,” he said. “It’s definitely taken the place of prevention. Good health is preventing a problem in the first place.” Along with his book, Scher writes a blog and is developing a membership website that will feature videos on a variety of health-related topics, from food and cooking to Buddhist meditation. Three days each week, he sees patients at Sharp Rees Steely clinics in the Grossmont area and Kearny Mesa. The other two days are devoted to his healthy lifestyle practice, Boundless Health, talking to clients from an office in Solana Beach. Many of his lifestyle consultations take place over Skype, Scher said. One of the most important elements of improving health, said Scher, is for patients to develop a mindset that will allow them to change their health-related habits, whether it is the food they eat, the exercise they perform or the sleep they get. “We need to believe that we can make the changes needed to be healthy, and we need to know that we can succeed,” wrote Scher in the book. “With that belief, we can transform our lives. Without it, all the knowledge in the world is not enough.” Along with pushing back against the tendency to over-prescribe certain drugs such as statins, Scher said some health-related myths need to be

debunked. For example, he said there is a commonly held belief that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and everyone should eat it. In fact, he said there is evidence that skipping breakfast can actually help with such things as weight loss and control of blood sugar levels for diabetics. Even doctors don’t always practice the best health habits, he said. In a doctor’s lounge at a local hospital, he said, he recently observed a tray of bagels, donuts and muffins set out for the physicians. “That’s absurd,” he said. “We’ve been trained that food is about pleasure and not about health.” Scher, 44,and his wife, Amy, have two children, ages 7 and 4. He said he tries to set a good example for his kids, such as fixing them healthy grilled cheese sandwiches on multi-grain bread, that include a layer of veggies, avocado and a slice of cheese. A former triathlete, Scher said he still runs for physical and mental health, and also does interval and resistance training. Other favorite activities include golf and hiking. He insisted that improving health is something everyone can do if they start with the proper mental attitude. “You have to change how you think about your health. That’s where it all starts,” he said.

Cancer survivor hopes to spread positivity at Scripps Encinitas event BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY For Dennis Baca, a cancer diagnosis did not mean all hope was lost. It was a chance for experts to fix a problem and for him to inspire others. Last August, the tow truck driver began experiencing severe exhaustion, which he attributed to a persistent cough. He decided to visit a doctor, who ordered blood tests and soon after informed Baca he had colorectal cancer and had likely been unknowingly fighting it for about two years. He underwent surgery the next day. “My reaction was, ‘You found it, you know what to do with it, you know how to fix it,’” said 59-year-old Baca, who lives in Oceanside. “In the meantime, my wife was breaking down completely. With me still being upbeat about things, it helped both of us.” Baca’s surgeon, Dr. Ujwala Rajgopal, general surgeon at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas, commended Baca for his attitude. “He had a remarkably calm demeanor, in spite of knowing that he had a large mass in his colon,” she said. Baca is hoping to spread that positivity by sharing his story at a public cancer survivors day event June 24 at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas. The event takes place from 10 a.m. to noon at the Scripps Encinitas Conference Center, 354 Santa Fe Drive. It will include stories from survivors, presentations on advances in cancer care and research, complimentary brunch and live entertainment. Baca said he wants people to “understand that [cancer] is not such a bad thing after all.” “When people get told they have cancer,

their day, all of a sudden, goes to crap,” he said. “I understand that. That’s the day someone said you had a problem, but they could also fix it. That’s actually not such a bad day. That’s a pretty good day in my world.” Baca completed chemotherapy treatments about three months ago and is currently attending follow-up appointments and scans. Even through the treatment, he’s kept up an active lifestyle, going on six-mile hikes and picking up an amateur radio hobby as part of his volunteer work with Oceanside’s emergency response team. He said he’s able to continue living his life, even with all of the appointments, because of his positive attitude. “It helps kicks things down the road a lot easier and faster,” he said. The hardest thing for him, he said, was following instructions to take six months off work. He hopes to return to work sometime this year. Rajgopal encourages people to receive colorectal cancer screening when they turn 50. “Colorectal cancer is preventable if it is caught early, when it is a polyp,” she said. “Once a polypectomy is done, that particular polyp will never become cancer as it is resected. Colonoscopy is the gold standard. It is completed within half an hour. However, if it is not possible to get a colonoscopy done, any form of colorectal screening is better than no screening. There are a variety of other methods for screening with radiology virtual colonography and stool DNA tests. It is important to get the screening done and follow up on the results with the doctor.”

FROM CIF, A1 mean if they did not approve the membership in the CIF San Diego Section, SDUHSD Superintendent Eric Dill replied simply that: “It would be the end of interscholastic sports.” Salazar responded: “Good” and many parents in the room applauded. “I appreciate the energy in the room but I can’t, as a board member, do that, knowing the effect it would have on our student athletes,” SDUHSD President Amy Herman said, before the board approved the agreement in a 4-1 vote. CIF requires that participating schools submit annual renewals to compete in athletic competition and the renewal was on the agenda for June 8. During public comment Torrey Pines High School parent Wendy Gumb, who has asked the district to investigate her concerns with the school’s baseball program, suggested that the board not renew with CIF. “I believe the San Dieguito Union High School District has privatized sports within our district by the way they allow the foundations to run the sports programs,” said Gumb, who has given the district an extention until June 16 to complete their third party investigation on the baseball program. “I think we are in violation of some of the CIF principles and I think the board should look closely into that.” She disagrees with sports teams

requesting parent donations of up to $750 from parents with statements that teams are “solely funded by parents and our fundraising efforts.” “That’s not a public school,” Gumb said. “I think we need to clearly look at what we’re doing in the district. I think high school sports are extremely important for our students and I believe you do too, but I think the way we’re going about funding the program is inaccurate.” According to one of the CIF operating principles, “schools that offer athletic programs must safeguard the integrity of their programs.” The principle states that commercial relationships should be monitored to ensure against “inappropriate exploitation” of the school’s name or reputation and

atmosphere of “deny, deny, deny” anytime the district is approached about issues in the athletic program. He said he has wanted to start a conversation about sports in the district, including his request at the May meeting for the district to allow students to play sports at other schools (such as allowing students from San Dieguito Academy to play football at La Costa Canyon) and for homeschooled students and the new SOUL charter school students to be allowed to play on district teams. None of the board members agreed with Salazar that they shouldn’t join CIF. “I think we have to set aside CIF because if we don’t approve CIF there are major implications for that,” Herman said. “I know we’ve had

there should be no “undue influence” of commercial interest. “The board regularly tells me that the foundation is a separate entity and that you have no control over it. That to me is a commercial interest,” Gumb said. The principles also state that sports programs should avoid dependency on particular companies or sponsors and Gumb said as many coach donation requests suggest, many programs have dependency on the foundation and that the foundation “controls athletics at all four high schools.” Gumb has also advocated for more transparency in foundation contributions. Salazar said he agreed with Gumb and said there has been an

discussions about best practices from the district’s side. It’s important that our records are clear and the donations that are given to us are very clear. Foundations don’t give all of their money to the district so accounting for everything they do is not what we do, but we can account for every dollar that they give to us and we will make sure that’s happening.” The broader discussion about the district’s relationships with the foundations is one the district is willing to have, Herman said. Superintendent Dill said one of the first goals of the new associate superintendent of business services is to forge a better relationship with the foundations – Tina Douglas begins her new position on July 1.

Breeders’ Cup statues evoke ‘The Art of the Horse’ BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The Torrie horses are coming. Final touches are being put on the 20 life-sized statues that will commemorate the Breeders’ Cup’s first-ever running at the Del Mar Race Track and, in the next few weeks, will make their way to their perches throughout San Diego County, standing guard as an emblem of equine excellence until the two-day extravaganza in November has come and gone. For more than 30 years, the Breeders’ Cup has crowned the ultimate champion of the sport of kings, with the victors of the cup’s top-tier races receiving trophies based on the famed “Torrie horse” statue that has for nearly two centuries resided at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. Those trophies measure a mere 11 inches high. For the first time in the race’s history, life-sized copies of the Torrie horse have been made for this year’s cup, part of the campaign that San Diego’s horse-racing community is rolling out to promote the seminal event, which is expected to draw as many as 100,000 visitors and generate more than $75 million. The “Art of the Horse” campaign put 20 Torrie horse statues up for sponsorship. Those sponsors chose the location and the artist to paint their statue. Some of the Torrie horses will go up for auction after the Breeders’

Cup, others will remain with their owners. “We hope to make this a really special Breeders’ Cup so that they want to come back again and again,” said Craig Dado of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, which is sponsoring one of the statues. “So we’re doing everything we can do to do the extra stuff. The Art of the Horse is one part of that.” The 150-pound fiberglass replicas — 87 inches tall, 87 inches long and 33 inches wide — were made in Chicago then brought to Del Mar last month, where they were picked up by their appointed artist. Once painted, the statues went to a Los Angeles warehouse to be sealed in a special coating that will protect them for generations to come. Two of the statues will go up at the race track. Other locations include Cedros Avenue in Solana Beach, the Fairmont Grand Del Mar hotel in Carmel Valley, downtown San Diego, the Lodge at Torrey Pines, The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe and Birch Aquarium. Closer to the race track, statues will go up at Red Tracton’s and Pamplemousse Grille, and the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce is placing one along the 101 corridor. As Bing Bush, Jr., director of a committee promoting this year’s cup, was recruiting those sponsors, he decided to pony up the $15,000 with a

It just felt like a good fit, a natural fit, for our community,” said Bush, a local lawyer and horse owner. “We’ve never had anything on the scale of what we’re having here with

the Breeders’ Cup. This is a truly national and international event. So we’re taking unprecedented actions for an unprecedented event.” The Del Mar City Council last week approved the statue’s temporary spot in Seagrove Park, at the end of 15th Street. Its design — dubbed “Gold Coast” by artist Cheryl Pelly, a dressage competitor and former Del Mar resident — is meant to evoke Del Mar’s

coastline both at sunrise and sunset. On one side, its color goes from aluminum to 24-karat gold flake, representing the morning sun as it breaks through a cool, coastal fog. The gradation is reversed on the other side, representing the sun’s descent into the Pacific. Three, and possibly four, more Torrie horses will make their home in downtown Del Mar. The L’auberge Hotel and Del Mar Plaza have each sponsored a statue, and the Del Mar Village Association has secured a sponsor for one at the intersection of Camino del Mar and 15th Street. A sponsor for another statue at the same intersection — in front of the Tasting Room — is still being sought. The history of the Torrie horse reaches back to the late 1580s, when the sculptor Giovanni da Bologna (also referred to as Giambologna) — widely considered the second-greatest of his century, behind only Michelangelo — crafted a horse statue in solid bronze. Its style — écorché— depicts the horse as though it has no skin, capturing every sinew and muscle fiber in exacting detail. Only four known copies were ever made. One of them was purchased by James Irskine, baronet of Torrie, around 1803 in London. By 1836, the statue had made its way to the Museum of Fine Arts at the University of Edinburgh, where it rests to this day.

TPHS Year-in-Review 2016-2017 As the last day of school quickly approaches, Torrey Pines High School is excited to celebrate and share the milestones and notable achievements across academics, arts, sports and student and faculty accomplishments that made 2016-2017 a great one. Highlights include: TPHS Has Highest Number of National Merit Finalists in the County The National Merit Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships that began in 1955 and TPHS’ senior class represents 41 of the 15,000 nationwide finalists in this year’s program - the highest number of national merit finalists in San Diego County (read more at the U-T: http://bit.ly/2rppsko). High school students enter the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) — a test which serves as an initial screen of approximately 1.6 million entrants each year. 2. Introducing TPHS Teacher of the Year/ SDUHSD Teacher of the Year, Susie Bouchard Ms. Bouchard is a special education teacher at TPHS, working with our TAP (Transitional Alternative Program), where she created a peer mentor program that allows general education students to partner with our TAP students to serve as mentors on campus. Through the program our TAP students have learned skills in cooking, dancing, artwork and gardening. Ms. Bouchard’s students describe her as a “hardworking, supportive, awesome, nice and last but not least, funny” teacher. She is passionate and enjoys interacting with her students and staff, developing meaningful and engaging lessons, and problem solving with students, staff and parents.

Prepare for wildfire: Vegetation management BY RSF FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT Summer is rapidly approaching, bringing with it dry, warm weather. To prepare for the upcoming fire season, the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District (RSFFPD) would like to remind residents and property owners about the Fire District’s weed abatement program. This program is designed to keep the residents living in within the Fire District safe by ensuring that yards and larger parcels are cleared of combustible weeds and debris.

This year in addition to RSFFPD’s weed abatement notices, Cal Fire will be issuing weed abatement notices that enforce the 100-foot defensible space requirements set forth by the Public Resources Code in all state responsibility areas. Individual property owners may be receiving a second notice shortly from Cal Fire. The notice you received from the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District has more stringent requirements than Cal Fire. Residents will be responsible for meeting the local ordinance

adopted by the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District, which requires the first 50 feet from the structure to be cleared of all native vegetation, the only planting material allowed in this zone is ornamental irrigated vegetation. Tree branches should be pruned back at least 10 feet from all structures. Trees should be limbed up 6-10 feet above the tallest shrubs planted underneath them. The area between 51-100 feet from the building SEE FIRES, A20

“Oh, yes, we had a baby bunny that got into the house. And we’ve had rabbits frolicking on the driveway at night. We know because they activate our motion detector lights-- on and off, and on and off, over and over.” “Yesterday morning we discovered a good-sized “package” on the driveway. Jose

Bill’s Angels team-building event held for Padres Pedal the Cause

M

ore than 100 San Diego women joined together to fight cancer June 9 as they gathered for a night of integrative wellness and Bill’s Angels team-building at the Rancho Santa Fe home of Padres Pedal the Cause founders Amy and Bill Koman. Padres Pedal the Cause raises funds for innovative cancer research in San Diego by hosting an annual cycling challenge at Petco Park in partnership with the San Diego Padres. One-hundred percent of the proceeds go directly to collaborative discovery research at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center, The Salk Institute, Sanford-Burnham Prebys and Rady Children’s Hospital. Team members and new recruits were treated to a beautiful evening that was both fun and informative with specialty cocktails, a seasonal menu of superfoods and sampling from local female-driven sponsor businesses Beaming and Graced by Grit. Highlights of the evening included a special guest

appearance by Dr. Mao Shing Ni, wellness expert and best-selling author of Secrets of Longevity. Mao is known to many as “Dr. Wow” from HBO’s Sex & the City, and spoke passionately about integrative oncology as he shared lifestyle tips for cancer prevention. He was joined by UC San Diego researcher Dr. Dorothy Sears, who shared results of her Padres Pedal the Cause- funded study on the benefits of nightly fasting as it relates to cancer. Bills Angels, which raised over $600,000 thus far for cancer research, also participates in the Ride for a Child program in partnership with Rady Children’s Hospital. Their littlest angel, 7-year-old cancer survivor Angelina Repetti and her mother, Amy, joined in the festivities and enjoyed an evening surrounded by love and friendship from the community. “Angelina touches the hearts of all of the women on our team year after year”, said Pedal founder and team captain Amy Koman. “Her spark and spunky personality adds lightness and depth to all of our lives.”

Here are some tips maintaining vegetation on your property while minimizing the risk of sparking a fire: • Complete mowing and weed whipping before 10 a.m., especially if it is a hot or windy day. • Do not use a lawn mower on dry vegetation. Use a weed whipper instead.

•Before you begin, remove all rocks from the area as a blade striking a rock can create a spark and cause a fire. • Spark arresters are required for all portable gasoline powered equipment. •Keep the mower, including the engine, free of dust, oil, carbon build up, and other flammable materials. •Have a garden hose or fire extinguisher on hand at all times and know how to use it. Keep a cell phone nearby

The game has changed. 24/7 grid independence is not just possible. It’s affordable.

as well in case of an emergency. • Double check that equipment has not been recalled. Certain Kobalt and Greenworks cordless electric lawn mowers were recently recalled and other similar equipment may have been recalled since it was purchased. The state has the ability to charge homeowners for cost recovery on fire responses due to negligence. So please be cognizant of the guidelines above when you are clearing brush and have a water fire extinguisher with you at all times. If a fire does start, call 9-1-1 immediately and use the hose or extinguisher to put out the flames if it is safe to do so.

FROM SDUHSD, A1 limited windows, set in the back of the Earl Warren campus. The petition states the inequity in the facilities stands out in comparison to what is being built a few feet away for middle school students — a contemporary design with large expansive windows to optimize natural light and larger, flexible-use classrooms in permanent buildings. Parents have complained for years about how students in ATP feel “isolated and segregated” and they were disappointed to see that the practice will continue in the new facilities, which were described as resembling “tool sheds.” “Is this really the best our district can do?” asked Charles Duncan, whose son attends Torrey Pines. “There’s no way in hell he’s going to attend this type of program. It’s horrible…This is what was promised to parents to be ‘state-of-the-art facilities?’” The two 1,400-square-foot portables have a total of three small windows — only one window in the students’ instructional space as the other two are in the conference room and teachers’ offices. There are no windows in

the bathrooms, no windows in the kitchenette and no windows in the sensory room. The four-year program currently has three teachers, 20 students and 10 aides. Next year there could be as many as 47 students — along with the needed support staff there could be approximately 62 adults in the two portables with only two bathrooms. TPHS student James Walker, who is working to complete his diploma and next year will be in ATP, was part of the group that took a tour of the new classroom. “A couple of things need to be fixed,” James told the board at the meeting. “There’s no windows and the computers are facing the wall and that doesn’t seem right…how can we get an education when the computers are facing away from the teachers?” As part of the special education parent forum, a floor plan for the new ATP facility was shared in fall 2016 and parents asked if they could provide input and they were assured they would be able to at a later date, Lynch said. When parents inquired about the progress throughout the year, however, they were told SEE SDUHSD, A22

FROM SDUHSD, A20 that the “walls are going up,” suggesting the construction of actual buildings not portables. A time to provide input never came and parents were given a tour of the facilities in May. Parent Randolph Burrows, whose son attends Torrey Pines, said ATP being placed on a middle school campus in “second-class dwellings” gives the perception of “insensitive planning on the part of the district.” “My son is a unique individual with talents and limitations, he’s not like anyone you’ve ever met,” Barrows said. “Our kids are not dumb. Our kids are perceptive. I’m continually amazed at just how perceptive they are. He understands when he is being typecast or framed as a disabled person. He understands that this is a second-class facility and placement.” In response to the petition submitted on June 8, SDUHSD Superintendent Eric Dill released a statement: “The petition submitted to the board of trustees addresses many concerns related to our special education programs. The district and the board are committed to the success of every student. We measure academic achievement in many ways, including that of special education students. The needs of students with disabilities must be individually determined in order to meet the needs of the student,” Dill’s statement read. “There is no one-size-fits-all solution in either general or special education. While our math and English proficiency rates for students with disabilities are higher than California averages and our graduation rate for district students with disabilities at 85.9 percent is higher than the 83.2 percent state graduation rate for all students, we have built in targets to increase our achievement for all students, including students with disabilities. To increase achievement, we review our programs and individualized instruction to improve

outcomes. The parent group has given us a lengthy list of issues they perceive with our special education program, so we will certainly take those concerns seriously and work to improve our programs to support successful student outcomes.” At the June 8 meeting, Dill acknowledged that the ATP program is housed on the perimeter of Earl Warren but said that the location was intentional as students will be coming and going during the day — the location gives students direct access to a parking lot and entrance where they won’t have to go through the middle school campus. Dill said regarding the appearance of the portables, it should be noted that landscaping has not yet been completed and said that the color of the structure matches the rest of the campus — many parents in the audience groaned in response. “Regarding the internal facilities, the classroom technology is the same as the rest of the classrooms,” Dill said. He said the computers were placed facing the wall to mimic the look of the “genius bars” in other district sites and they were prevented from adding windows because of power and data located on the walls. Dill said in the last week they have explored adding windows to the building. Regarding the space concerns, Dill said that the program is designed for the students to be out in the community as much as possible for work experience and there should be no issues with overcrowding. For the last couple of years, the district housed ATP students in portables at Earl Warren Middle School. Prior to that, the students were moved almost every year to different locations, such as the local library, which the petition states failed to provide continuity for the program. ATP has been housed at Mira Costa College in the past but were evicted there due to the college’s space limitations — parents prefer the Mira

Leighton Bromiley Dorey III October 12, 1942 - May 30, 2017

RanchO Santa Fe — Leighton Bromiley Dorey III, 71, a former real estate broker of Rancho Santa Fe died tragically on May 30, 2017 in his Rancho Santa Fe home. he was born October 12, 1945 in abington, Pa to Margaret and Leighton Dorey. his family’s name was made in the textile industry of Philadelphia. he attended abington high School, Staunton Military academy in Virginia and studied textile science at Philadelphia textile college. as a manager of wool dye houses, he built a reputation for innovative dying techniques. he was an accomplished gymnast in his youth and served in both active and reserve coast Guard as a young man. In his late twenties, Leighton started his own real estate business and

raised his children, LB and alyrene, in Bucks county, Pa. his principled business practices soon made him a leader in the Bucks county real estate industry, serving as member and president of the Board of Realtors. In the late 90s, Leighton moved from Pennsylvania to San Diego where he met the love of his life, Kimberley Dorey. they married in 1998 at Kimberley’s long-time

residence in Rancho Santa Fe. Leighton Dorey Real estate brokerage of RSF ran from 1997-2008 when he retired to rebuild his family’s treasured home that burned in the 2007 Witch creek fire. In his personal life, Leighton was an avid reader, a dedicated objectivist, a horticulturalist, a hiker, a naturalist and a do-er of all projects needing to be done. to Leighton’s friends, colleagues and family he was known as an intellect, a philosopher, an educator, a man of principle and integrity, and a seeker of what is true and right. he was a man who knew who he was. he is survived by his devoted wife, Kimberley Dorey; daughter, alyrene Dorey; son, Leighton B. Dorey IV; step-daughter and son-in-law, tiffany and Mike Deal; step-

daughter and son-in-law, Kalista Barter and Kyle Stephan; granddaughters, Lakesanne and Mikayla Deal; and by his many cherished friends.

Costa location as it puts ATP students among peers their own age. The petition states that in the district’s Prop AA bond for $449 million in district-wide facilities upgrades and improvements, ATP was the only program left out of the master plans to provide state-of-the-art facilities for all students. SDUHSD Trustee John Salazar said that the district is building “palaces” at other campuses with Prop AA funds — “Why wouldn’t they have a real building, not a portable?” he asked. Dill said the district will be having a facilities workshop in July or August and they will be taking a comprehensive look and re-evaluating the facilities plan. Per the petition, parents are requesting a total “overhaul” of the special education curriculum that should include electives, career pathways, after-school activities, more course structure and more research-based curriculum rather than activities-based. The petition states many students would benefit from vocational, career and job readiness programs. The Torrey Pines student, James Walker, said he works at Petco as part of the Workability program and was told he could get to a higher level if he had cash register training. “I think more vocational skills training is needed for kids like me,” James said. Schenker, who was a member of the special education parent forum, said that for diploma-bound students there are no electives and no fundamentals track that includes all the academic classes needed for graduation. Schenker said special education parents have to make a “terrible binary” choice for their students’ education in SDUHSD. Students either continue toward a diploma and are not able to access transition skills and programs that the Transition Assistance Program (TAP) peers have or they continue with a certificate of completion and remain in TAPS or Functional Living Skills (FLS), go on to ATP and forgo their diploma. Students have until age 22 to be a part of the district services and Schenker said the district’s ATP program should incorporate a track where students can complete classes toward a diploma and receive needed transition services and employment readiness. “Special education needs to be viewed as a multi-year program that incorporates academic subjects while also transitioning students’ post-high school life for more independence and employment readiness,” Schenker said. Parents say there is also a failure to assess non-diploma bound students to provide meaningful grades or benchmarks. In the spring, parent Sophy Chaffee saw 75 assessments for her daughter in general education versus seven for her son in special education — his seven final “grades” were all “A’s,” she said. “There appears to be an unwritten rule that all special education students in the TAP and FLS programs get automatic A’s,” Chafee said. “That says to me you don’t think these students are capable of progress that can be measured. It’s not grade inflation. It’s grade abdication.” Chaffee said in the past, she has chosen to stay silent about grades and assessments because she didn’t want to cause problems for her son’s teacher but she said her silence began feeling like further abdication. In listening to the parents speak out on Thursday, June 8, the board seemed willing to cooperate with the parents. “As board president and a representative of the San Dieguito Union High School District, I want to state unequivocally that it is not our intent to treat our special education students in an inequitable manner. The board was not aware of many of the concerns that were shared with us on Thursday at our board meeting, or that were outlined in the petition given to us that night,” said SDUHSD President Amy Herman in a statement.“Although there are many issues to address, I am committed to working cooperatively with our special education families and district staff to come up with possible solutions.”

CCA students’ IMAX films hit the big screen BY KAREN BILLING Canyon Crest Academy recently became the first high school in the nation to screen two student IMAX short film documentaries in an IMAX theater. More than 300 people attended a sold-out screening of Envision Cinema student films, “Bee Conscious” and “Change in the Water” on Wednesday, June 7 at the Edwards Mira Mesa Stadium 18 IMAX & RPX Theatre. CCA Envision Cinema hosted a pre-screening reception and had a Q&A session with the filmmakers after the films. All funds raised from ticket sales supported CCA-TV and the Envision Cinema program at Canyon Crest Academy. Last October, CCA had nine films chosen as official selections in the All American High School Film Festival, the world’s largest high school film festival at the AMC Times Square in New York City. Two of the CCA films were recognized in the Best of Fest screening, out of 1,900 submitted films from 48 states and 15 countries. Due to the Envision film program’s overall excellent body of work, CCA was one of five schools in the nation chosen to receive a $5,000 grant at the festival from the new IMAX Big Picture in Focus Young Filmmakers Program to produce two environmental documentaries that will be promoted and distributed by IMAX. “Bee Conscious” is a documentary short film that discusses the threats and issues

surrounding the declining bee population, produced by student filmmakers. While experts believe this problem is a real threat to the food supply, many people have a lack of knowledge on the topic. Student filmmakers Thomas Wade, Reed Martin, Noah Hecht, Roberto Pino, Melanie An, Campbell Moore and Ryan Curcio spoke with experts who work in fields directly influenced by or related to bees who gave their professional insight and opinions on the decline of the bee population. This documentary covers the possible threats to the bees, the effects bees have on humans, and what people can do to help this issue. The documentary short film “Change is in the Water” focuses on the attempted ocean conservation efforts of an environmentally-sustainable, surf industry brand Enjoy Handplanes. Following their journey and discussing the reasons behind their ecological actions, this film highlights a handful of individuals who hope to make a big difference in a worldwide problem. Student filmmakers Navin Bose, Ceren Fitoz, Gabriel Gaurano, Jayden Gillespie, Noah Hecht, Reed Martin, Daria Miller, Kalani Newman, Skyler Stewart and Jackie Tullie spoke with surfers, environmental experts and representatives of the surfing industry to discuss the cultural significance of protecting the water for surfers, wildlife, and society as a whole. “Bee Conscious” is available to watch at https://youtu.be/XeHG8TGFl28

A scam grows in La Jolla in Del Mar author’s novel ‘Crimes Against a Book Club’ BY SEBASTIAN MONTES n hindsight, a comedic crime caper set in La Jolla was the only story that could’ve spilled out of her. When Yale Law School graduate and criminal law attorney Kathy Cooperman wasn’t representing white-collar defendants — of which La Jolla hardly has a shortage — she was rubbing elbows at playgrounds with fellow moms in designer track suits, bedecked in bling and Hermes bags. No wonder, then, that the now-Del Mar resident’s debut novel — Crimes Against a Book Club —centers on a cabal of well-heeled La Jolla ladies swindling other, better-heeled La Jolla women. Several years removed from the La Jolla scene, she jokes now that she’s not trying to tear down the capitalist world order — just maybe to dress down some of La Jolla’s ostentatious wealth. “In a way, the scam is a way to do that,” she said. Said scam is as follows: a group of women — each mired in their own crisis — concoct a scheme to bilk La Jolla’s beauty-obsessed with Pond’s cream gussied up with just a dash of a decidedly illegal ingredient that sparks its users out of their domesticated doldrums.

I see women busting their asses to look just right, to look perfect, and it’s just like, ‘Wow, that’s a lot of pressure.’ There’s got to be a lot of pain in there. People working that hard, there’s got to be some real fear.

But while Crimes is an implicit critique of wealthy excesses, it is no cheap swipe nor simple revenge fantasy. Characters cast first as caricatures arrive before long at a place of empathy as the reader comes to understand their struggles — the inevitable creep of old age, the dynamics of spousal disdain — and how they respond to the extremes driving them. “I see women busting their asses to look just right, to look perfect, and it’s just like, ‘Wow, that’s a lot of pressure.’ There’s got to be a lot of pain in there.

that hard, there’s got to be some real fear,” she said. Characters include: Annie, the chemist, anxious and awkward and born into a family of addicts, consumed by the hopeless desperation of paying for her autistic son’s therapy. Sarah, the suave lawyer who, after quitting her high-profile job, discovers that she can no longer afford her fertility drugs. Annie’s mother Chloe, a former actress and “sort of a really sympathetic drunk,” who was too self-involved to be a good

mom when Annie was a child, but who makes the ultimate sacrifice when her daughter’s scam unravels in the novel’s inevitable reckoning. Notice a trend? It may come as no surprise, then, to learn that Cooperman wrote the entirety of the book while pregnant with her fourth child. “I think that’s why the maternal themes in there are really strong,” she said. “One woman is doing it to protect her son. The other woman’s doing it so that she can get pregnant. And the grandmother does it to shield her daughter.” Cooperman’s authorial debut is the product of dogged persistence. After meeting initial rejection —followed by a second novel’s rebuke — she was on the verge of abandoning her dream to write. But she kept faith in the germ of her idea, and years later returned for a second round of editing and promotion. That persistence culminated in the green-light call from Amazon last year that left her so elated that she drove away from

a gas station with the pump still in her car. Crimes was available on Amazon’s free Kindle month in April, then went up for sale on May 1, so far racking up hundreds of 4and 5-star reviews for Cooperman’s ability to weave levity into profound themes. Think a quirkier Liane Moriarty. Heady stuff for something Cooperman, who spent four years performing improvisational comedy, best describes as “comedy beach reading.” “I’d like to think it’s not shallow comedy, but I’m not trying to do something terribly deep, either. Yeah, I talk about themes that I care about, but hopefully in a way that’s going to make people laugh,” she said. “I love dense literature, but when I read it my instinct after a while is, ‘Somebody throw a pie or something.’ That’s just where my brain goes.” Crimes Against a Book Club (Lake Union Publishing) is available at www.amazon.com.

San Diego Book Awards Association announces 2017 winners

JEANNE FERRIS

Christine Ashworth, Chet Cunningham Spur Award winner Aida Dennehy, and Greg Cunningham

BY JEANNE FERRIS After a two-year hiatus, the San Diego Book Awards announced the finalists and winners of its 22nd annual writing competition at a packed awards ceremony on June 10 at the Sheraton La Jolla Hotel. Over 200 submissions from local authors were received. Three independent readers using a scoring system judged each entry on blind evaluations. The competition was open to all and only local resident writers in San Diego. In memoriam of its founder, Chet Cunningham, the first annual Chet

Cunningham Spur Award was introduced and given to Aida Dennehy for her unpublished manuscript “In the Shadow of the Prophet” with a cash award of $200. His daughter, Christine Ashworth, and son, Greg Cunningham, presented the award. Mr. “C” recently passed away on March 14, 2017 at his home in San Diego. An avid fan of Westerns and a huge supporter of the unpublished writer, he felt encouragement and acknowledgment was essential to “spur” the writer to continue in what can often be an unrewarding and discouraging occupation and created the awards as an

impetus. For the best of the best in the published category, the Geisel award with a cash award of $200 was given to former Union-Tribune columnist of eight years and San Diegan native Priscilla Lister for her well-researched “labor of love”: “Take A Hike: San Diego.” For a full list of winners, visit Sandiegobookawards.org. The writing competition opens for unpublished books in November 2017. Please visit the website for detailed instructions to qualify: sandiegobookawards.org.

Music-minded psychiatrist reveals Tchaikovsky’s mental anguish UCSD presentation explores link between depression, creativity BY WILL BOWEN Do creative people — artists, musicians and writers — suffer from psychological disturbances more often than “regular” people? And if they do, are their creative productions an expression of their inner conflicts or are they an escape, a transcendence accomplished in spite of their difficulties? To shed some light on the mental issues creatives sometimes deal with hidden from public view, the UC San Diego Department of Psychiatry, in cooperation with the John A. Majda, M.D. Memorial Foundation and Dr. Richard Kogan the UCSD Retirement Association, hosted a free, informative and highly entertaining lecture May 22, in the Conrad Prebys Concert Hall on campus. It centered on the music of the great Russian composer Peter Illich Tchaikovsky, who suffered from depression and ended up taking his own life. The speaker/performer for the evening was Dr. Richard Kogan, a Julliard graduate in piano studies, who is also a psychiatrist and co-leader of the Cornell University Music & Medicine Initiative. Dr. Harry C. Powell, a UCSD medical school professor emeritus of pathology and member of the UCSD Retirement Association executive committee, introduced the evening’s program. Powell along with Dr. Sidney Zisook of the Healing Education Assessment & Research (HEAR) program, which is aimed at suicide prevention in health care providers, were jointly responsible for enticing Kogan to campus. Powell began by sharing the tragic story of former UCSD physician John A. Majda, a 1987 graduate of UCSD Medical School. Majda, who was a well-liked, successful and caring doctor, suffered from depression. He ended up taking his own life in 2007. As a result, the John A. Majda Foundation was formed by his wife and fellow doctors with the joint aim of recognizing outstanding research in the area of depression and suicide, and assisting professionals in the healing arts who might be prone to suicide. Dr. Igor Grant, Chairman of the UCSD

Psychiatry Department, added to the introductions, “The idea for tonight’s event is to try and raise awareness of depression and bring it out into the open so people can better understand and talk about it.” Kogan was in town to attend the American Psychiatric Association (APA) meetings being held at the San Diego Convention Center. Dr. Michael Brophy, a psychiatrist from Dallas, Texas, who was also in San Diego to attend the APA meetings, said he came to the lecture because, “I was utterly fascinated by a earlier lecture Dr. Kogan gave at the APA meetings where he discussed the life and career of composer Robert Schumann, who suffered from bipolar disorder or manic depression. Schumann unsuccessfully attempted suicide by jumping into the Rhine River, and ended up dying in an insane asylum.” Tchaikovsky, who composed timeless musical masterpieces such as the “1812 Overture,” and ballet scores for “The Nutcracker,” “Swan Lake” and “Sleeping Beauty,” suffered from lifelong depression. Evidence suggests that he took his own life, at age 53, by willfully drinking water contaminated with cholera. Although Tchaikovsky is discussed in length on Wikepedia, his depression and homosexuality, which for a long time were covered up by the Soviet government, are only lightly touched upon. Kogan took great pains to illuminate these issues which he has extensively researched through the reading of Tchaikovsky’s diaries and letters, as well as through interviews with the composer’s descendents. He said Tchaikovsky was hypersensitive and a loner who had great difficulties with relationships. Tchaikovsky was, however, according to Kogan, able to rise above his condition to express and release his great sorrow, hopelessness and frustration through composing music. As Tchaikovsky poignantly expressed in one of his letters, “I hate myself, only work saves me.” The genesis of Tchaikovsky’s problems, Kogan said, seems to have been his unfulfilled relationship with his emotionally distant mother, who sent him away to boarding school at an early age and who died while he was still quite young. Although Tchaikovsky was most likely homosexual in orientation, he did have one brief love affair with a female student whose name was Desiree Artot. In his letters he wrote, “She is the only woman I have ever loved.” And Tchaikovsky was briefly married to a SEE MUSIC, B23

La Jolla Playhouse-born productions win Tony Awards for directors Christopher Ashley, Rebecca Taichman La Jolla Playhouse Artistic Director Christopher Ashley won the 2017 Tony Award for Best Director of a Musical for his work on the Playhouse-born “Come From Away,” June 11 at the annual ceremony at Radio City Music Hall. Additionally, the Playhouse’s world-premiere of “Indecent” received two Tony Awards for Best Director of a Play for Rebecca Taichman and Best Lighting Design of a Play for Christopher Akerlind. Ashley’s nomination for “Come From Away” was his third for directing, and his first win. “This award is truly a shared honor — with our extraordinary writers David Hein and Irene Sankoff, our amazing cast, crew and band, as well as La Jolla Playhouse, my artistic home for the last 10 years,” he exclaimed. “I couldn’t be more proud of our production teams and staff, who help develop and support these new works here in San Diego and propel them to continued life on Broadway.” “Come From Away” had its world-premiere at the Playhouse in May, 2015, winning six San Diego Critics’ Circle Awards. The show then went on to Seattle Repertory Theatre, DC’s Ford’s Theatre and Toronto’s Royal Alexandra Theatre, before opening at Broadway’s Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre in March, 2017. It is a fact-based story of how the tiny town of Gander, Newfoundland, took in thousands of stranded travelers after the 2001 terror attacks. “Indecent,” co-produced with Yale Repertory Theatre, is Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Paula Vogel’s decades-spanning saga of the story behind the controversial Sholem Asch play, “The God of Vengeance.” It had its world premiere at the Playhouse in November, 2015, a subsequent

Off-Broadway run at the Vineyard Theatre, and later opened at Broadway’s Cort Theatre in April, 2017, marking the 28th Playhouse production to transfer to Broadway. There are plans for the Playhouse’s 2016 world-premiere of Ayad Akhtar’s “JUNK” and the current Ashley-directed JASON KEMPIN, GETTY IMAGES FOR production of “Escape to TONY AWARDS PRODUCTIONS Margaritaville,” to open on Christopher Ashley with Broadway next season. his 2017 Tony Award for In addition to the Best Director of a Musical Playhouse nominees, this for “Come From Away.” year’s slate included three UC San Diego MFA graduates: Jefferson Mays, nominated for Best Actor in a Play for “Oslo”; Paloma Young for Best Costume Design of a Musical for “Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812”; and former Playhouse Artistic Director Michael Greif, nominated for Best Director of a Musical for “Dear Evan Hansen.” The Playhouse was founded in 1947 by Gregory Peck, Dorothy McGuire and Mel Ferrer, and reborn in 1983 under the artistic leadership of Des McAnuff.

East Coast hairstylist brings unique techniques to Del Mar An East Coast hairdresser is using his talents to transform the follicles of North County women and men. Daniel Rosati, who practices at Diva Hair Salon in Del Mar, was inspired by his father, uncle, cousins and sister to do hair. “It's just totally in the family,” he said in a recent interview. Rosati, who has 33 years of experience, has worked in world-renowned salons such as Frederic Fekkai, Berdgorf Goodman and Stephen Knoll. Before moving to San Diego, he primarily worked on the East Coast in what he described as “very ethnic” neighborhoods. There, he became familiar with techniques for curly hair, which was common in the area and can be tricky to work with, he said.

An effective way of treating curly hair is cutting it while it's dry, so the stylist can see what the cowlicks are going to do before he alters them, Rosati said. “I let the cowlicks do their thing, go where they want to go and cut hair dry,” he said. “That's a big thing that sells people. They like that. Cutting it dry, you're going to have a better vision of what the hair is doing." Also, when coloring the hair, Rosati uses ammonia-free, oil-based color, which moisturizes rather than dries out the hair, like bleach would. He also offers Keratin treatments to loosen the curls and make the hair healthier. For the men — which he used to cut exclusively before “falling in love” with women's hair — he does all scissor cutting.

He said he doesn't like the “new fad” of clippers. Cutting hair with scissors slices the hair, rather than cutting it blunt, like a clipper would. He said at 51 he understands the need to cut adult men's hair differently than those of a younger age, when the hair acts differently. “When you're slicing the hair, and the hair grows back, it interlinks better and doesn't get as wide and puffy as it would with a clipper haircut,” he explained. To book an appointment with Rosati at Diva Hair Salon, 2739 Via De La Valle, in Del Mar, call his cell phone at 858-900-8187. - Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of our advertisers.

I couldn’t be any happier with the service that was provided to me by the Mossy Team. They made the entire process painless! I hadn’t bought a car in 10 years so I was nervous going in, but they explained every detail and made sure I understood what I was about to sign. They made sure my car was clean and gassed up before I drove off with my new 2017 Nissan Rogue! I am beyond in love with my new car! I definitely recommend going in to Mossy if you’re in the market to buy a new car.

Dad’s Day menus for your special guy

W

hile some guys experience culinary nirvana scarfing down a heap of guacamole and pile of corn chips washed down with a can of fizzy fluid welded to their palm, others first inquire about food’s provenance, and choose judiciously from both the sea (sustainable, wild caught, omega-3 rich fish), and the land (grass fed, organic, GMO-free). Whatever dad’s druthers, degree of social consciousness and culinary habits here is a round up of delights to keep him happy and satiated for Father’s Day. Caffeine Fiend: For the man who needs a java jolt to kick-start his day, start with a high-octane espresso, foamy cappuccino or iced coffee. Add mocha French toast, nutty pancakes with coffee whipped cream or a dark roast hazelnut quick bread to hit the spot for a Dad’s Day breakfast or brunch. For savory bites use your bean by concocting a coffee and black peppercorn dry rub (recipe provided) to dial up strip steak, grilled fish and chicken, a wet marinade for lamb and pork roasts, or a coffee vinaigrette as an all-purpose dipping sauce or salad dressing.

And end the day with a buzz from a classic tiramisu. A Salty Dog: Have plenty of spicy and savory snacks on hand throughout the day from pita, root and kettle cooked chips to a variety of nuts, pretzels and colorful crudités for the palate that craves salt. Serve with assorted dips, such as roasted red pepper hummus, black bean and toasted corn salsa, avocado with grilled shrimp and poblano chiles, or curried Greek yoghurt. A Grill Seeker: Attention barbecuephiles! Start Father’s Day festivities with a grilled breakfast feast of smoky poached eggs, heirloom sausages, wild caught salmon fillets and mesquite-flavored waffles. For the cooking surface use an aromatic hardwood plank to infuse an outdoorsy essence to all animal and vegetable offerings. Mild alder and cedar woods pair well with delicate fish, seafood and vegan fare, maple, apple and pecan planks complement more robust-flavored pork and fowls, while mighty oak and hickory woods are a good match for SEE SHRINK, B20

Famed Coding Camp Hits Solana Beach/Del Mar

Leading Coding (programming) for kids and STEAM (Science, Technology, Arts, Math and Engineering) education innovator – CodeREV – has expanded its popular tech summer camps to get more students coding and creating instead of losing critical skills over the summer. CodeREV offers these camps in locations throughout California, including Point Loma for the first time and Solana Beach / Del Mar for the second year in a row. Through CodeREV tech summer camps, students from first grade to tenth learn skills that are not only useful and fun for creating incredible school projects; they are marketable skills such as coding, higher order thinking, math, game development and robotics that are in demand for the knowledge workers of

tomorrow. In addition, the camps offer fun and unique outdoor activities that strengthen team-building and allow students to run and play. “Students love to play video games, but they love to create them even more. At CodeREV, we teach kids how to create their own eye-popping video games and 3D worlds and use engaging games like Minecraft to sharpen their math skills. Educators know that over the summer months, students typically lose up to one third of the knowledge they learned in the previous school year. Our camps not only help students retain those skills, they help them work in fields of interest that employers report are in short supply,” shared CodeREV Founder and CEO Evan Boorman. “Students love our camps because the courses and skills they learn are fun and geared toward their interests. Parents love our tech summer camps because the curriculum is relevant to high-demand 21st century skills.” CodeREV curriculum is supported by education technology specialists out of graduate schools of education from Stanford, MIT, and Harvard. Its teachers are real programmers with real-world tech experience, who also possess a true passion for teaching - a craft they have come to love through hands-on experience guiding kids to become creators. Find out more about their camps at www.coderevkids.com/camps or give them a call at (619) 609-7432.

Lotus Trolley Bag makes reusable reliable BY KAREN BILLING Del Mar couple Farzan and Jen Dehmoubed have created an eco-friendly and unique solution to the standard-issue reusable bag with the Lotus Trolley Bag. The Lotus Trolley Bag is a set of four reusable bags that are easy to carry and designed to spread out accordion-style along the top of a customer’s shopping cart. The bags allow the customer to pack and sort groceries in the cart, making shopping simpler and faster. The couple tried several different versions before they landed on the design of the Lotus, named as such because the bags unfold like the flower. “I’m thrilled we came up with a product we really like and that works well,” Farzan said. The bags launched two weeks ago on Amazon.com and had an official debut at Fiesta del Sol in Solana Beach May 19-20. “It was amazing, it was fantastic to see everybody’s reactions,” Farzan said. “We sold out on the first and second day.” A launch party with friends and enthusiastic shoppers was held at the Dehmoubed’s Del Mar home on June 3.

with different business ideas and products. Jen works as a private tutor. After California’s plastic bag ban became official this January, the Dehmoubeds shared the frustrations of many people — they didn’t want to keep plastic bags in the home but reusable bags SEE BAG, B22

Two TPHS students lead effort to help save lives Two Torrey Pines High School students have been working hard to raise awareness about sudden cardiac arrest in youth, and fundraise for Ryan Poe life-saving equipment, through a club at the school. Jacob Li (sophomore) and Ryan Poe (junior) Jacob Li launched Torrey Pines Screen Your Teen this year after they were both diagnosed in 2014 with heart abnormalities that could have led to sudden cardiac arrest. Their message is important. Sudden cardiac arrest in youth is the second highest medical cause of death in youth under the age of 25. It is also the number one killer of student athletes. Because it can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere, time is of the essence. The average response time for a first responder, after the initial call to 911, is 8-12 minutes. For each minute defibrillation is

delayed, the chance of survival decreases approximately 10 percent. It’s crucial to have Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) on hand. Ryan reveals, “AEDs are the only device that will save lives in the event of Sudden Cardiac Arrest.” With so many athletes at the school, Jacob and Ryan saw a need for these devices. They began fundraising in February for three additional AEDs on campus, to support the entire local community. There was an immediate response from the Torrey Pines High School Foundation and the Torrey Pines athletic teams raised enough funds to cover the cost of the first AED. Installation is anticipated at the football field this month. In order to raise money toward the additional AEDs, the club held a two-day fundraiser with Jersey Mike’s Del Mar, kicking off the event on June 1 at the Torrey Pines Athletic Physicals Night. Students conducted an information session about sudden cardiac arrest and upcoming free teen heart screenings through Eric Paredes Save A Life Foundation. Torrey Pines is

honored to host a free teen heart screening scheduled for March 25, 2018. Jersey Mike’s Del Mar supported the event with coupons and a two-day fundraiser give-back that generated nearly $400 toward the campaign. Cathy Brown, area director and franchise owner, helped coordinate the fundraiser stated, “Jersey Mike’s Del Mar is excited to partner with Torrey Pines students, Ryan and Jacob to raise funds for AEDs on campus. Increasing awareness of Sudden Cardiac Arrest in youth is an important and potentially life-saving initiative.” “It’s great to have the opportunity to pay it forward in a very real way at Torrey Pines,” says Jacob. “After a free heart screening in 2014, I was diagnosed with a heart abnormality and subsequently had surgery. Today, I am a competitive basketball player, I surf and snowboard. Without that diagnosis, I could have been in need of an AED to save my life. I hope that additional AEDs on our campus will help the community be safer for those who have undetected heart conditions.”

But who can blame him? Carl is a no-fuss, no-muss kind of pig who prefers to do his own thing without too much responsibility. He’s not used to be handled too much, so a patient family who will help him to be more brave and social would be fantastic! Offer him some fresh veggies and he’ll be yours forever!

Dwayne’s modern miracle medical treatment

The Lotus Trolley Bag FROM BAG, B19 were often cheap and flimsy. “There is a need for quality, recycled bags that avoid filling homes with the abundant and cheap ones that are often forgotten at home, tear or quickly end up in landfills,” Farzan said. While shopping, customers can strap the bags onto the handle of the cart. Once at the check-out counter, customers can spread out the bags and pack as they please. The four bags vary in sizes — the largest is an insulated cooler bag that keeps cold stuff cold, big enough for a box of frozen pizza. The cooler bag’s unique design also includes compartments for a carton of eggs and bottles of wine.

“They are bags we can be proud of because they won’t rip or fray like many resuable bags that tend to get damaged after a few uses,” Farzan said. “We wanted the bags to last. We had the bags tested with over 70 pounds in each bag, more than we could ever carry. They are heavy duty and very sturdy, that was important to us.” The eco-friendly bags are also made of recyclable plastic and, as an added bonus for the environment, Lotus Trolley Bags is a member of 1% For the Planet and a portion of sales goes to the Surfrider Foundation and Plastic Pollution Coalition.

Since his arrival at Helen Woodward Animal Center in early May, Dwayne, an orphan pup who had been horribly disfigured by abuse, has been living a true Cinderfella story. Thanks to the media, Dwayne’s tragic early life (subjected to kicking, beatings, and a crude wire muzzle), and his Tijuana rescue have become news throughout the world, leading to well-wishes and donations from as far away as Brunstatt, France. With over $40,000 donated towards medical needs, Dwayne began the first of many life-changing surgeries two weeks ago. Now a renowned stem cell therapy institute – Vet-Stem Biopharma – has stepped up to the plate to offer cutting-edge treatment to help Dwayne’s healing and put him on an even quicker path to his forever home. On May 22, Helen Woodward Animal Center Chief Veterinarian Dr. Patricia Carter performed the first of Dwayne’s medical procedures. One of many required lip surgeries, the facial reconstruction was necessary to repair the extreme mutilation of his nose and mouth, prevent loss of teeth, and to help him drink, eat and breathe more normally. Recently, Carter performed Dwayne’s second surgery, removing the ball of his right disjointed hip, in an attempt to even out his legs and help him develop a more normal gait. Many additional surgeries will follow including further facial reconstruction,

But the healing time between each surgery can be extensive and the immune system can be compromised from so much surgery and downtime.

almost exclusively on horses. Its technology, which harvests tissue from an injured animal and delivers the animal’s own healing stem cells back to the site of the injury and throughout the body by IV, is nothing short of a modern miracle. Over the last seven years, the treatment has been expanded to domestic dogs and cats. The procedure normally costs around $2,500. Moved by Dwayne’s story, however, Schaffer and the organization have offered to help the orphan dog at their own expense. “His story is heartbreaking,” stated Schaffer, “and we all have such a passion and a love for animals. We know the capabilities of this treatment and how it can help with his healing and really change his life.” During Dwayne’s recent hip surgery, Carter removed a small amount of fat tissue from his abdomen and Vet Stem went to work isolating the healing stem cells. Then Dwayne recently received his first stem cell therapy . “This is truly amazing medicine, explained Schaffer. “Because it is created from his own cells, there is no worry that his body will reject it. The treatment is truly one of the most innovative forms of therapy out there.” Those wishing to follow his story can find updates at animalcenter.org/news/ dwaynes-journey.
