RSF Association board split on tennis memberships BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe Tennis Club continues to seek RSF Association board approval to renew its 25 sponsored memberships, an initiative approved last year to help boost club activity and play, increase dues revenue and maintain the vitality of the community asset. The board was split 3-3 on the

renewal at its June 30 meeting, with those in opposition citing concerns about non-Covenant members being allowed into the exclusive club. Those in favor included board member Fred Wasserman and outgoing board members Philip Wilkinson and Jerry Yahr. RSF Association President Ann Boon, outgoing Vice President Heather Slosar and board member

Mike Licosati voted against it. Board member Kim Eggleston was present for the meeting but not for the vote. The board will revisit the renewal at its July 7 meeting. The Rancho Santa Fe Tennis Club Board of Directors is requesting the renewal of the “highly successful” membership category that has benefited the club and the members

BY PAULINE REPARD Irrational fears of financial ruin and emotional pressure may have driven a Clairemont woman to kill her teenage niece and a family friend, then herself, in the girl’s luxury Rancho Santa Fe home, a family attorney said Friday, July 1. Sheriff ’s homicide investigators released autopsy results Friday, July 1, that Hannah Arya, 15, and Los Angeles real estate broker Ihnwon Mia Shin, 56, were stabbed to death by Sayeh Amini, 52, who then committed suicide by stabbing or cutting herself. Homicide detective Lt. Kenn Nelson said he plans to explain the events to the victims’ families in person this week before he releases more detail on the double-murder suicide case. (This newspaper went to press Tuesday, July 5.) The killings took place Monday, June 27, inside the Via de la Valle home owned by Hannah’s father, Michael Arya, before his death in April. Friends and family members have said Hannah came home from an Arizona boarding school with Shin, a longtime friend and business associate of her father, joining her as a sort of chaperone. It was not clear why Amini went to the house. Investigators said someone called 911 about 11 a.m. to SEE MURDERS, A20

BY KAREN BILLING At its June 30 meeting, the Rancho Santa Fe Association board publicly and officially handed off an independent review on the Covenant Design Review Committee (CDRC) to be tackled by the new board. The special meeting was the last for outgoing board members Philip Wilkinson, Heather Slosar and Jerry Yahr. RSF Association Board President Ann Boon said the details of the report will be discussed after new members Allen Finkelson, Janet Danola and Ken Markstein join the board in July. Acting RSF Association Manager Don May recommended that the board appoint a subcommittee to determine the strategies for implementing some of the report by Rick Engineering’s recommendations, although no actions were taken by the board at the June 30 meeting. The board has also hired Rick Engineering to perform an independent review of the land use planning process and records for the last 12 to 18 months as a result of procedural problems with The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe boundary adjustment and condo SEE CDRC, A22

Rob Coppo selected as SDUHSD approves 2016-17 budget new principal of Torrey Pines High School The San Dieguito Union High School District Board of Trustees and Superintendent Rick Schmitt recently announced that Rob Coppo is returning to the San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) to serve as principal of Torrey Pines High School (TPHS). Coppo is currently the Assistant Director of Career Technical Education in the Grossmont Union High School District. Coppo takes over for David Jaffe, who was recently selected to lead the Rancho Santa Fe School District as superintendent. Coppo is in his 18th year in education and previously served as an assistant principal of Rob Coppo Torrey Pines High School from 2008 to 2015. Last year, Coppo led career technical education in the Grossmont Union High School District. Prior to this experience, he was a high school English and video production teacher, a WASC site coordinator, a soccer coach, a technology mentor, and was selected as Teacher of the Year in the Escondido Union High School District. Coppo and his family have long been a part of the community. Not only did Coppo work at Torrey Pines for seven years, he is also a graduate of the school. As a proud member of the TPHS class of 1986, he will be attending his 30th high school reunion in August. His sister and father still live in the area. Two of his nieces graduated from Torrey Pines, and one more will graduate from TPHS in 2019. Coppo currently lives in La Mesa, where his son will be a junior at Grossmont High School, and his daughter will be an eighth grader at La Mesa Arts Academy. Asked about the transition from his current position in the Grossmont District to the TPHS Principalship, Coppo said: SEE COPPO, A22

BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District board approved its 2016-17 budget in a contentious 3-2 vote on June 30. Trustees Mo Muir and John Salazar voted against it. The budget includes a projected $129 million in revenue and $136 million in expenditures, a deficit of $6.7 million. The budget meets the board’s recommended 4.5 percent level of reserve funds, with an end balance of $13 million. The budget reflects an increase in revenue due to an estimated increase in property tax of 5 percent and an increase in state funding under the Local Control Funding Formula. Expenditures are up overall due to the 5.5 percent salary increases approved for all employees, additional staffing at Pacific Trails Middle School and an increase in counselors, psychologists and social workers. Despite the 3-2 vote, trustee Amy Herman said she appreciated how many of the board’s suggestions were added to the budget this year, such as more class options and sections at Torrey Pines and La Costa Canyon, more counselors and more campus security. “I’m proud of the work this team did,” Superintendent Rick

Schmitt said. “Everything you all asked for we were able to deliver and I’m proud of that. This team made it happen and some of it was daunting…There’s so many good things in that budget that I think will benefit the kids.” Salazar’s concerns were related to the district’s reserve level dropping from $19 million to $13 million and that with 82 percent of the budget going to salaries and benefits, it leaves very little to cut should the district need to. “The main reason I voted ‘no’ on the budget is that with a nearly $7 million projected deficit we are quickly spending our reserve funds. If the district does not get the future retirements of teachers it is hoping for (and replacing them with new hires at lower salaries), we will have no other option then but to cut staff which would raise class sizes,” Salazar stated. “I just do not believe this budget is in the best interest of our students or taxpayers.” Schmitt said there will be years when the district spends more than it collects and even during the hardest times, when its reserves were as low as 6 percent, the district was able to deliver and keep all of its programs alive without cutting staff SEE BUDGET, A22

Rancho Santa Fe Association manager resigns Bill Overton has resigned from his position as manager of the Rancho Santa Fe Association for personal reasons, according to a press release. “It is with regret that I tender my resignation as RSF Association manager. I would like to thank the board for its support throughout my tenure, particularly these last few months as I have focused on recovering from a health condition,” Overton said in the press release. “I

am successfully on the mend health-wise, but my recovery time frame is not compatible with Association operations, hence my resignation. “I would also like to thank the community, volunteers and staff for their support of me as RSF Association manager and for the collective hard work over many years that has served to make Rancho Santa Fe the great community that is.”

The Rancho Santa Fe Association Board of Directors will address the issue of filling the Association manager position over the coming weeks. In the interim, Don May continues his role as acting manager. “The board appreciates Bill’s hard work and professionalism and we wish him well in all his future endeavors,” RSF Association Board of Directors President Ann Boon said at the June 30 board meeting.

Superintendent Schmitt honored by county on last day BY KAREN BILLING As Superintendent Rick Schmitt conducted his last piece of business, overseeing Thursday night’s San Dieguito Union High School District meeting, County Supervisor Dave Roberts proclaimed June 30 Rick Schmitt Day throughout the County of San Diego. “I think when we look around the state of California and look at well-run high school districts, people think of San Dieguito and they think of you — quite frankly, that’s why you got stolen from us,” said Roberts, who is also a parent of two children in the district. “Everybody that I talk to around the state just praises you. We all admire you, we all respect you.” Schmitt planned to leave the day after his last meeting in Encinitas to start immediately at his new post as superintendent at the San Ramon Valley Unified District on July 1. Schmitt was a part of the district for 13 years, serving as principal at Torrey Pines High School for three years, six years as the associate superintendent

Both of Schmitt’s children graduated from Torrey Pines High School and he said he wasn’t expecting to leave SDUHSD, but it was an opportunity to lead a growing school district and to return to

the Bay Area where he and his wife started their family many years ago and where much of his extended family currently lives. Schmitt took time to thank his executive team of associate superintendents, noting that none of the district’s many great accomplishment would happen without his “partners.” He thanked his executive assistant Joann Schultz, noting that he benefited from her 30 years of knowledge of the district, as well as all of the trustees on the board. He also noted he was very proud that three of the district’s leadership team will be going on to superintendent positions: Torrey Pines High School Principal David Jaffe to the Rancho Santa Fe School District; Canyon Crest Academy Principal Karl Mueller to the Coronado Unified School District; and Associate Superintendent Jason Viloria to the Laguna Beach Unified School District. “I have fond memories all around as an employee and a parent,” Schmitt said.

RSF Golf Club driving effort for more junior players BY KAREN BILLING Seeing new young golfers picking up the game is truly a great sight to see for Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club members. Through the growing junior golf program, camps, clinics and individual and group lessons are available year round, teaching kids fundamentals and respect for the game that hopefully leads to a lifetime of enjoyment of golf. While the club has offered summer golf camps every season, there are more scheduled this year as there has been a lot of interest. “The golf club has seen a tremendous response to our family-focused activities and events,” said Dottie Mulholland, golf club board of governors and house committee chairperson. “I recently watched a small group of youngsters, their bag of clubs as big as they were, happily scampering after golf instructor Scott Johnson.Very heart warming!” All golf and Association members are welcome to sign up for the junior golf camps which will run through Aug. 26. The camps are run by Johnson, who has been a golf professional at the club for 31 years before being named the director of instruction last year, tasked with developing a comprehensive program at the club for all levels of play. Assistant golf professionals Matt Gibbens, Tyson Colarelli and Ashley Huizing help lead the campers through their days. The camps combine golf instruction, camaraderie and fun for beginner golfers between the ages of 6 and 13.

Scott Johnson oversees his young golfers at RSF Golf Club summer camp. An advanced camp is available for golfers ages 9-16 on Aug. 16-19. The advanced camp includes playing lessons, on course competitions and video and launch monitor analysis. For a group of beginners last week, the camp day began on the sun-soaked driving range under Johnson’s watchful eye. Decked out in their colorful gear, the kids whacked away at clusters of balls side-by-side with friends and siblings. “Keep that left arm straight,” Johnson advised one of the youngsters last week, reminding another about their wrist position. After working on the swings at the driving

range, the group splits off with Johnson and the assistant golf professionals to improve on other aspects of play. “We have a great short game area where the kids can work on their chipping and putting,” Johnson said. Johnson said his young golfers are “wonderful” and show a great amount of focus when they are out on the course. Some in the camp were on just their second lesson, others have been playing for two years. Young golfer Joanie said her favorite thing is playing in the RSF Golf Club scrambles with her whole family. During the school year, the club offers after-school sessions two days a week. The

club is also in its fourth year of its Junior Golf Team. Johnson said the team keeps growing and has been doing quite well—they just wrapped up the season, winning the last four matches. Every month the club also holds family golf outings like the scrambles Joanie mentioned. “We’re trying to make sure opportunities are there for those who want to take it up. We’re trying to expose as many kids in the Association to the game as we can,” Johnson said. “The club is very family-friendly. We can get juniors out here every day if they want to play.” For more information, contact the golf shop at (858) 756-3094.

A total of 1,609,481 guests came through the gates between June 3 and July 4 (the Fair was closed six days during that period) celebrating Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, the classic story written in 1865 by Lewis Carroll. This year, the day with the highest attendance of 96,501 was on Sunday, July 3, placing that date within the top four attendance dates in the Fair’s history. Fair guests of all ages embraced the theme, many arriving in costume and participating in numerous theme-related events during the Fair. At the same time, traditions of the Fair such as rides, unusual food, competitive exhibits and agricultural displays brought in Fair guests in search of their fondest memories and first-time county fair experiences. The San Diego County Fair first opened in 1880 to bring county farmers together to share ideas and see who had the best citrus fruit, fastest horse and who baked the best pie. Since then the Fair has grown to one of the top 10 fairs in North America, as our county has expanded to more than three million residents and continues to represent the diversity and interests of all people.

It is a timed competition, where a team of three riders on horses attempt to put three of the same numbered cows in a pen. The team that does this the fastest, wins! Unfortunately, it is not as easy as it sounds. There are 30 numbered cows in a herd and each team must cut three specific cows that have the same number out of the herd. They must bring these cows down to the other end of the arena and put them in a corral. If more than four cows cross

COURTESY

Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc. celebrated the Fourth of July with military donkey ‘Dynamite’ In honor of Independence Day, most Americans celebrated with barbecues, parades, music, American flags and firecrackers. But Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc. (LPR) celebrated with the newest member of the family, a very special military donkey named Dynamite. Dynamite served in the U.S. Military at Fort Irwin, Calif., where he was used to transport dynamite into places the military jeeps and cars could not go. Dynamite completed his service in the military honorably and now it is time for him to retire. Dynamite came to the ranch in terrific health, was well trained and overall a happy donkey. Dynamite spends his days being overly adored and celebrated by the LPR community as his gentle and sweet disposition has won over many hearts. Dynamite will enjoy the ranch until he is

adopted to a loving and committed home although it is a known fact that all the volunteers prefer he become a permanent resident. More information on Dynamite and how you can support and sponsor him can be found on the LPR Inc. website under “meet the ponies.” Although Dynamite has had an easy transition to Laughing Pony Rescue, unfortunately most stories don’t go as smoothly. Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of unwanted and abused horses of all breeds. To find out more about how you can help support and sponsor Dynamite or any other horses rescued by Laughing Pony Recue, Inc., please visit www.laughingponyrescue.com .

Sun FireDefense bringing safety and protection to North County residents Jim Moseley, the founder and CEO of Sun FireDefense, is going global. His company recently was awarded a contract to support new high-rise development in Dubai. But residents of the North County area of San Diego can also take advantage of his products’ technology developed for the NASA Space Shuttle and expanded to protect homes from being destroyed by ﬁre.

Space Shuttle and the MARS project. These properties keep oxygen out of the wood in a way that never gives the fire a chance to ignite. You can hold a 5000F map gas torch directly on a piece of SPF3000-treated wood for five minutes without it catching fire. This is three times the temperature of a house fire.

A Los Angeles-area resident, Moseley’s ﬁre-protection applications – including a clear spray and window coverings – earned him the 2014 Patrick Soon-Shiong Los Angeles Business Journal’s Innovator of the Year award.

Q: What other products are there like yours? What sets yours apart?

“We are trying to get it out to as many homes as we can,” Moseley said. Question: Is it true that 50 percent of homes that burn to the ground aren’t even in the direct path of a fire? Jim Moseley: Yes, the burning embers travel miles beyond the actual fire and even with A-rated shingles and tiles that are difficult to ignite, the embers build enough heat on the roof to transfer through to the plywood underneath the roof to burn it down. Q: How can your product help? Can you explain the process a homeowner goes through to properly treat their home with your products? JM: Just by merely spraying the plywood or decking underneath the roof and under the eves, this greatly reduces the risk of this happening when applied by our licensed contractors. Also, by installing our SPF3000 window coverings, it will keep the radiant heat from a wildland fire from blowing out the windows and the fire burning the home down from the inside out. Q: What is the science behind your product – basically, how does it work? JM: We have several ingredients which include alumina, zirconia and inconnel. These are all aerospace components that were used on both the

JM: Really this is the only long-term solution, meaning seven to 10 years, guaranteed for five years. The only other alternatives are gels and foams that have to be applied just before the fire or they dry up and become ineffective. The problem with that is two-fold: Getting to the house while the fire is in close proximity as well as the waste of money if the house is gelled or foamed and the fire never reaches the house. Q: How much does it cost to treat a home with your spray product? JM: It costs $3 to $4 per square foot of area treated not including the labor which usually runs between 50 cents to $1 per square foot. On older shake wood homes we recommend two coats because the extra absorption is so important. Q: What is your main hope in treating more homes with your products? JM: Our goal is to save at least the 50 percent of the homes that aren’t in the direct path of the fire and reduce the loss of human life and property that can’t be easily replaced. Building a new home costs a minimum of $200 per square foot. Why not spend $3 to $4 per square foot extra to protect it for the peace of mind? People don’t realize how much money is spent just in relocating as well as time to rebuild after a fire. It’s not merely the house, but all of the contents, family heirlooms and art that is being protected along with the structure that is important to consider.

SPF3000 is a post-treatment, interior/exterior fire retardant through a silicone ceramic coating that provides insulation and reflects heat up to 30000 F.

CCA student organizes RACE $100M allocated PINK for Breast Cancer walk for highway and BY KAREN BILLING A local teenager is holding the first annual RACE PINK for Breast Cancer, a walk at NTC Park at Liberty Station on Sunday, July 10 from 9 a.m. - 11 a.m. (2640 Historic Decatur Road #200, San Diego, CA 92106 ). Kylie Bobertz, who will be a senior this fall at Canyon Crest Academy, is planning the race on her own and all proceeds will go toward the American Cancer Society for breast cancer research. She is passionate about the cause after her mother, Charlene Stein, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011 when Kylie was in the sixth grade. “It was really tough, seeing her go through that and wanting to be there for her but not really being sure what to do,” Kylie said. Her mother is now cancer free and Kylie is determined to give back in any way she can. This is Kylie’s first big fundraiser she has attempted for breast cancer research. Last year she honed her skills helping to organize a fundraising event for ReSurf, a mentorship program that teaches surfing to underprivileged children as part of her business management class at CCA. Kylie connected with KIND Snacks, which will provide free bars for everyone who comes out to RACE PINK that morning. The biggest challenge in planning the walk for Kylie was finding the right venue, getting all the right approvals and, now, getting the word out. “I hope to get more sign-ups so we can have a lot of fun and get a big group of people together,” Kylie said. “Hopefully it will become an every year event.” Registration is $30.

The California Transportation Commission voted June 30 to allocate $103.7 million to the San Diego region to extend carpool lanes on Interstate 5 (I-5) and add a second track to a portion of the coastal rail line in North San Diego County. The funding will enable the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to begin construction on a $700 million package of projects, aimed to accomplish the following goals: · Expand travel choices by extending the carpool lanes on I-5 from Lomas Santa Fe Drive to State Route 78. · Increase the efficiency and reliability of the rail corridor with two double tracking projects across the San Elijo and Batiquitos Lagoons. · Add bike/pedestrian improvements in Encinitas and Carlsbad. The interchanges at Encinitas Boulevard and Santa Fe Drive will be upgraded with new bike/pedestrian paths. · Restore the San Elijo Lagoon, specifically to improve tidal flow and water quality and expand the salt marsh habitat. Construction is scheduled to begin in late 2016. The projects comprise the first phase of the North Coast Corridor Program, a $6 billion investment in infrastructure and environmental improvements along the coast between La Jolla and Oceanside over the next 30 years. “This transportation corridor is among the most important assets in our region,” said SANDAG Chair and San Diego County Board of Supervisors Chair Ron Roberts. “Once again, we are pleased that by combining state funding with our local TransNet half-cent sales tax, we are able to move forward with much needed improvements that provide congestion relief and enhanced rail services. The vote by the CTC demonstrates the importance of having a dedicated local source of funding to leverage outside dollars to get key regional infrastructure built.” Approximately 25 percent of the North Coast Corridor program funding will come from TransNet, the voter-approved, half-cent sales tax for local transportation projects, which is administered by SANDAG. “The CTC vote marks a pivotal milestone for the North Coast Corridor Program and moves us closer to the start of construction” said Caltrans I-5 Corridor Director Allan Kosup. “We look forward to beginning construction on the first set of transportation and environmental enhancements near Encinitas later this year.” To date, 67 percent of the coastal rail corridor in San Diego County has been double tracked. About $1 billion of rail improvement projects are under development or planned in the corridor over the next few decades, with the goal of fully double tracking the entire 60-mile stretch of the rail corridor within the county. This stretch of the rail corridor is part of what is formally known as the Los Angeles– San Diego–San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor (LOSSAN). LOSSAN is the second busiest intercity rail corridor in the nation, supporting commuter, intercity, and freight services. Train operations on the line include Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner; the Southern California Regional Rail Authority’s Metrolink; the North County Transit District’s COASTER passenger rail service; and Union Pacific and BNSF Railway freight rail services. Each year, more than 2.7 million intercity passengers and 4.9 million commuter rail passengers (Metrolink and COASTER) travel the LOSSAN corridor. One in every nine Amtrak riders uses the corridor. Averaging more than 700,000 vehicle trips daily, the I-5 North commute corridor serves as a critical north-south link connecting San Diego to Los Angeles County, Orange County, and Baja California, Mexico. The corridor serves as a gateway for commuters, recreational users, goods movement, business centers, and local residents, providing access to 22 percent of the region’s total jobs. More information on the North Coast Corridor Project is available at: http://www.keepsandiegomoving.com/North-Coast -Corridor/NCCHome.aspx.– Submitted press release

here is so much to be said about mental health, but I want to start out with this thought. Of course there’s a stigma around the words “mental health”. When someone says the word mental, you immediately conjure up an image of a McMurphy (Mac) from “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.” I picture Jack Nicholson with the crazy eyes and all his outlandish lines like, “Is that crazy enough for ya? Want me to take a sh** on your floor?” The characters in that movie set an image for how we react when we hear the word “mental,” and it’s not a pretty picture. I read an article today about a woman who writes a food blog, whose had anxiety and depression since she was a little girl. She said several things in this article, which resonated deeply with me. She has always felt that she was the only person out there who felt like she did, and that she was somehow broken. When she has panic attacks, it feels like she is either losing her mind or dying. That’s spot on – “Losing her mind” is a perfect description of a panic attack. Apparently, her family came up

with a name for her feelings when she was younger, “Gricky” – which is a combination of gray and icky – because honestly there was no other way to describe how she felt. I get it. When I told my sister I was writing about mental health, she wanted to know which family member I was going to throw under the bus! Trust me, this is not a coming out piece, but I’ve experienced panic attacks my whole life and they are impossible to describe to anyone who hasn’t had them. This blogger used the word gricky, my family used the word dizzy spells...until one day, when I was in my 20s, my father read an article that was all about panic attacks and we felt like we finally knew what my “dizzy spells” were. It was shocking, because prior to reading that article, there was no doctor who could explain why I would get dizzy, freeze up, and nearly faint for no reason at all. The term “panic attack” didn’t exist. We also learned that something was triggering my dizzy spells (that’s the million dollar question for anyone suffering from panic attacks), and so it was a real eye opener for us. Does this mean that I have mental

health issues? I guess so. Do I want to be called mental? Not necessarily. I would love to find a way to alleviate panic attacks for everyone and anyone who experiences them, because they are debilitating to live with. Yes, you can do yoga, you can meditate, and medicate, but that’s not always the answer. Because what’s worse than having an actual panic attack, is the fear that you are going to have one...but again, only us crazies understand that way of thinking. Why is it that if I told someone that I was going in for surgery, that I would receive flowers, sympathy cards, and friends visiting the hospital? But if I were to tell someone that I experience terrible panic attacks and therefore don’t want to go somewhere fun with them, it’s crickets? Where did everyone go? I’m not crazy, well maybe just a little. When I read about the kids who commit suicide because they become depressed and don’t have the tools to cope, it kills me. They aren’t given the tools because all anyone talks about is how great their lives are, where their kids are going to college, and how their little league team just won the World Series, again. Nobody talks about how their kid may be struggling with depression/anxiety, eating disorders or anything else that doesn’t fit the social norm. Social media is the new world that we live in, but it is so fake. While I love social media, I also believe that this false sense of perfection we all put out there contributes to the depression that some people feel when they are sad and insecure to begin with. Perhaps if we came up with a name that didn’t include the word “ What say you? Email me at www.randiccrawford@gmail.com.

And while this positive trend is certainly reason to celebrate, significant challenges often remain for patients, even after they are declared “cancer free.” “The end of treatment often brings a mixed-bag of emotions,” said David Leopold, M.D., who directs cancer survivorship services at the Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine. “Suddenly, patients are on their own and they don’t know what to do or how to move forward. It’s like stepping off of a cliff.” Integrative medicine is helping to bridge the gap for a growing number of cancer survivors. Integrative medicine complements traditional medical care with a “whole person” approach that addresses emotional, behavioral and spiritual well-being. The number of cancer survivors seeking integrative services at Scripps has more than doubled in the past few years. “Cancer survivors repeatedly have a group of problems that lend themselves well to integrative medicine,” said Dr. Leopold. “From managing pain and combating fatigue to dealing with anxiety and relationship changes, our goal is to focus on patients’ needs.” Scripps offers a holistic approach to help meet the diverse needs of cancer survivors. Programs and services cover diet, exercise and lifestyle improvements, stress and pain management, as

well as mind-body techniques aimed at improving quality of life. Survivors have a wide range of integrative services to choose from, including meditation, acupuncture, yoga, massage, nutritional guidance, healing touch (a gentle biofield therapy) and more. “Half of survivors have ongoing issues with fatigue without a clear cause,” said Dr. Leopold. “About a third experience lingering pain. Many have anxiety, as they worry about disease progression or recurrence or try to adapt to a new normal. Our goal is to give people back a sense of control that they may have lost following diagnosis.” Cancer is a significant life event and people need to work through the changes that result. “What we have found is that cancer leaves an invisible brand on a person. Patients need strategies to cope,” said Del Mar resident William Stanton, M.D., an oncologist and the medical director of the Scripps Cancer Center. Scripps has developed an exceptionally high level of collaboration between its oncology and integrative medicine departments. Such

teamwork between the two medical disciplines has been shown to provide patients with quality of life improvements, and in some cases, to extend life. “The more people that touch a cancer patient, the better off they are,” said Dr. Stanton. “It’s important for patients to feel like they are surrounded by opportunities for help.” Another bright spot for the cancer survivorship movement is the growing availability of proton therapy, which delivers less radiation to healthy tissue surrounding a patient’s tumor. Less radiation to normal tissue lowers the probability of side effects and treatment-related cancers. “We’re curing more people of cancer today and they’re living longer after their treatments,” said Carl Rossi, M.D., medical director of the Scripps Proton Therapy Center in San Diego. “More than ever, we need to be cognizant of the potential effects our treatments may have on patients’ long-term health. Radiation kills cancer, but it can also potentially cause cancer and other serious health problems, so the less of it we deliver to patients’ healthy tissue, the better.” Because it is composed of positively charged heavy particles, a proton beam can be controlled to deposit the bulk of its radiation dose within the tumor, with little to no radiation to nearby healthy tissue. By comparison, X-ray beams are composed of massless particles of energy with no electrical charge, and as a result, deliver radiation to healthy tissue in front of and after the tumor site. “To Your Health” is brought to you by the physicians and staff of Scripps.

report possible child abuse at the home. Nelson declined to reveal what was heard or seen, but he said a couple of juveniles and an adult, acquaintances of Hannah’s, had been in front of her house, then went a short distance down the street to call for help. No calls for help were made from inside the house. Deputies summoned by the call got no answer at the door but saw through a window a woman lying dead on the floor. They broke in and found the other two bodies in other parts of the house. The lawyer, a family friend of Amini and her husband, James Moliere, described her as delusional and suicidal since the death of her brother, who lived in the home with his Russian girlfriend. He died at age 59 after a three-year battle with lung cancer. “She (Amini) had it in her head that friends of her brother were going to blame her for her brother’s death, and perhaps people would come after her in lawsuits, to ruin her financially,” said Carl Starett, an El Cajon bankruptcy attorney. He said Amini’s husband tried twice to have her admitted to a hospital when she became suicidal recently. On June 13 she was talking of harming herself, but refused to accept admission to the hospital, Starett said. Two days later, after she’d visited her brother’s house, a family friend told Moliere that Amini needed help. He took her back to the hospital and she stayed overnight before being discharged. “I wish she’d gotten the help she needed,” Starett said. “We don’t have any information, specifically, about why she snapped. ... The only answer seems to be that she had a severe mental breakdown that wasn’t caught and treated.”

Hannah was attending Verde Valley boarding and day school in Sedona, Ariz. In social media postings her many friends remember her as a kind, loving and beautiful girl. She took part in equestrian events at school. Shin looked out for Hannah after her father’s death, according to Leyla Kaya, who used to babysit Hannah and work for Arya. He owned Global Capital Group in downtown San Diego, a mortgage and real estate firm, and for a time owned Cafe Lulu in downtown San Diego. Kaya described Hannah as “savvy” and intelligent, with an interest in politics. Shin, who grew up in La Jolla and went to La Jolla High School, was a successful broker herself, her sister said. Her sister, who spoke to The San Diego Union-Tribune on condition that her name not be published, said Shin and Arya had been neighbors at one time. She said Shin was with Hannah on Sunday, June 26, making dinner for her and a teenage friend. “She had nothing to do with their family stuff,” the sister said in a telephone interview. “My sister was a practicing Buddhist. This is very odd. She’s always talking about cause and effect. I can’t understand how this has happened. …” She described Shin as a caring, strong, straightforward and assertive, yet vulnerable. Shin was unmarried and had no children. Kaya spoke of Shin as sophisticated, sassy, charming and tough. She once sold a house to tennis star Serena Williams. “She went through a rough patch (when Michael was dying),” Kaya said. “She finally felt at peace and felt like her whole life was changing for the better.” Kaya said Hannah flew into San Diego on Saturday, June 25, and

was planning to stay on through the Fourth of July. Kayla was supposed to pick her up, but plans changed and Shin drove down from Los Angeles to get her. Then Kayla, Shin and Hannah ate dinner at Cafe Gratitude in Little Italy, and got yogurt before going to the airport to pick up the girl’s friend, who flew in from Portland, Ore. Shin was happy that weekend, talking about a $70 million project she had just secured in La Jolla, Kaya said. “None of this makes sense. It’s very confusing, shocking,” Kaya said of the killings. “Mia was an innocent bystander. She came to help Hannah.” She said Arya went through a messy divorce, and Hannah lived with Arya and his girlfriend, Marina Ryzhkova. “Everything he could give his daughter, that was his goal,” Kaya said. She added that Arya and his sister never had a close relationship. Ryzhkova returned to Russia sometime after Arya’s death, and signed away her trustee rights to act for his estate in the event that Amini could not fulfill that role, according to Starett. With Amini dead, another family member could step in as trustee, or a professional could be appointed by the court, he said. Starett said he has known Amini’s husband, Moliere, for 35 years. Moliere, a software engineer, was married to Amini for 16 years and they had three sons, ages 10, 12 and 15. She was a stay-at-home mother who also managed rental properties she and her husband owned. Starett said Amini was the trustee of the Michael Arya Revocable Living Trust, and in that role had to manage the estate assets, such as paying the mortgage, utility bills, and Hannah’s tuition. Under terms

investment career. In addition to appearances on CNBC, NBC and CBS, his commentary has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Barron’s Investor’s Business Daily and Business Week. Leedom has been a regular guest on the “KNX Business Hour” with Frank Mottek heard on AM 1070 radio in Southern California and KOGO’s ‘Money in the Morning’ in San Diego. He currently resides in Rancho Santa Fe with his wife and two daughters. of the trust, Hannah was to inherit 50 percent of the estate, and the other half was to be split among Amini, Arya’s girlfriend, Marina Ryzhkova, a niece and a nephew. Arya bought the Rancho Santa Fe house for $950,000 in 2014, according to a real estate website. The two-bedroom, three-bathroom home of 2,395 square feet was built in 1986, and is currently valued at $1.32 million, the website said. “There’s no financial incentive I can see for her (Amini) to kill Hannah,” Starett said. He noted California law prevents a murderer from reaping financial benefits from the killing. He also said he knew of no serious dispute within the family over Amini’s role as trustee or her share of the inheritance. “The pressures of being trustee might have gotten to her,” Starett added. “There were some checks that weren’t written in a timely fashion. That could have led to some family friction.” Hannah’s mother, who lives in Oregon, remarried after her divorce from Arya. Starett said public records show that on June 10, she filed a lien against the estate for child support, discovery costs and attorney’s fees totaling $125,246. A judge confirmed an order for the liens to be recorded. Starett said he doubted Amini would have had time to receive mailed notice of the lien before Monday, so it was not a likely trigger for the slayings. He said Amini’s husband is “numb” while dealing with the murder-suicide and their three sons. “He’s got to pick up the pieces and go back to work,” Starett said. “James has told me had he known this would happen, he would have done everything he could to prevent it.” – Pauline Repard is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

FROM CLUB, A1 RSF Tennis Club President Barbara McClanahan said they did not have an official vote of the members but they did canvass the membership and the RSF Tennis Club board voted unanimously to renew the membership. “There was no negative response,” McClanahan said. Slosar, a member of the RSF Tennis Club, said she was not asked for her opinion. Eggleston said the board would love to hear a formal vote from the club membership to help them make a decision on the renewal; Wilkinson said that he was fine with just a board vote. The sponsored membership program brings in revenue of over $60,000 a year. The cost of the limited membership is $2,500 a year, which is an increase from the previous rate of $2,188, and ensures that Covenant members are receiving “substantially better value.” Covenant residents currently pay an initiation fee of $3,750, plus monthly dues that vary for family and single memberships. Along with the renewal of the 25 memberships, the RSF Association board has the right to terminate the memberships. If they are terminated, the members are entitled to remain a sponsored member for two full fiscal years following the notice of termination. In the board’s attempted approval, the motion was to approve a one-year renewal of the sponsored membership category, without the two-year “tail.” Slosar’s primary concern is the number of non-Covenant residents that are now members of the club. Totaling all of the categories of extended family, sponsored family, extended single, sponsored single non-resident associate family and non-resident associate single, there are currently 44 non-resident members, which is over 21 percent of the club membership. “If that’s the direction that we’re going, OK. However, I thought the idea was that we were going to bring up membership within the Covenant but, as you can see, that has not happened. There’s been no increase in Covenant memberships. There’s merely been increase in non-Covenant memberships,” Slosar said. “I think the golf club would love to have this option, they’d love to get 21 percent

She said that the RSF Tennis Club needs to make more effort to look inside Covenant membership to add members — she said there are plenty of people who play tennis that have not been approached. “How would not approving this make the tennis club a better place?” McClanahan asked. “I think it’s ridiculous that you’re insinuating that we haven’t done so, that we haven’t had opportunities for people to come in and play for free. We’ve opened up the club to the community and tried to gain new memberships within the community.” Yahr noted that there is a bigger issue with the RSF Tennis Club’s operations overall — a request was made at the last board meeting for the RSF Tennis Club and RSF Association to work together on an independent review of club practices. Called a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analysis, the RSF Association board was set to approve a consultant to conduct the review, but decided to wait and directed staff to work with the RSF Tennis Club board to create a scope of services and find the right consultant in a more collaborative effort. Boon said since that meeting, the RSF Tennis Club has decided not to collaborate. Yahr and McClanahan said they have heard of no such thing. “It’s a very weighty decision long term,” Licosati said. “In the short term, absolutely it helps the tennis club have these non-Covenant members. But is it short sighted? I happen to think it is very short-sighted. If we start to have non-Covenant members use facilities that are owned by the Association it should go to a vote of the entire Covenant, because it’s their asset. “I think we need to consider the broad implications of that because once the nose is under the tent, you’re not going to be able to get it back out,” Licosati said. Incoming board member Allen Finkelson said that he feels a membership vote would be uncalled for. He advocated that the board approve the membership category for one year. Finkelson will get a chance to vote when he joins the board July 7.

PGA Junior League Golf is growing in popularity With the nationwide program exploding in the past few years, 20 facilities in the greater San Diego area will be hosting multiple PGA Junior League Golf teams this season, including Encinitas Ranch, Rancho Santa Fe Golf Course, The Farms and Lomas Santa Fe Country Club. PGA Junior League Golf is designed as a fun, social and inclusive opportunity for boys and girls ages 13 and under to learn and enjoy the game of golf under the direction of PGA and LPGA Professionals who serve as team captains. In all, a record 30,000 kids around the country participated on 2,500 Junior League teams last year, a 233 percent increase since 2013. Kids wear numbered jerseys and play on teams with their friends, utilizing the two-person scramble format for competition, in order to reinforce the team concept and create a nurturing environment for learning

the game, according to a news release. The program has also gained the support of several PGA and LPGA Tour players, including Rory McIlroy, Michelle Wie, Rickie Fowler and Lexi Thompson, who are Official Ambassadors for PGA Junior League Golf. “Golf is a great sport for parents to consider for their kids, and PGA Junior League Golf brings a fun, team concept to a game that can be played for a lifetime,” said Scott Kmiec, senior director, PGA REACH. “Through PGA Junior League Golf, PGA and LPGA Professionals are providing golf instruction to boys and girls along with teaching them the character skills and values of the game that they can carry into their adult lives.” PGA Junior League Golf is the key youth program of PGA REACH, the charitable arm of the PGA of America.

Presentation on a Founding Father of RSF To be held by RSF Historical Society The Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society welcomes back the grandson of Barton Millard, Pete Ragan, at a Coffee on the Patio event Saturday, July 23, at 10:30 a.m. Ragan will discuss life in Rancho Santa Fe and the effect it has had on those who experienced the earlier days in the Ranch. His grandfather

was involved as “first” president of the RSF Golf Club, often seen alongside Max Behr as he discussed the design for the course layout. Barton Millard served four terms as president of the Rancho Santa Fe Association and was also co-writer of the CC&R’s. The La Flecha House, home of the Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society, has on display the personal ledger of Barton Millard which dates

FROM CDRC, A1 subdivision. The CDRC report is a separate issue —the results of the planning review have yet to be reported. Brian Mooney, a principle of Rick Engineering, said his firm was hired in the fall to evaluate the CDRC’s process, the Covenant and Rancho Santa Fe history, design guidelines and regulations. The consultants identified two general categories of applicants — residents looking to make improvements and other more business-oriented developers — and gathered perceptions on the process through interviews from the two groups of customers, both positive and negative. Mooney said the report includes their conclusions on two “distinct approaches that were advocated by the interviewees on resolving the perceived problems that emerged.” CDRC President Sharon McDonald, who was away on vacation, asked for a letter to be read into record concerning her objections to Rick Engineering’s report. CDRC member Hilary Broyles, who read the letter for McDonald, said the CDRC had been anticipating the report for some time but members did not receive it until 7 p.m. the night before on June 29. Boon stated that McDonald has had the report since June 7. Due to vacation schedules, the CDRC has yet to review it and is scheduled to do so at its July 12 meeting. “The review is insufficient in many regards, most notably the extremely small sample of 15 people interviewed. Not all CDRC members were interviewed, statistically this does not represent a valid or reliable number of opinions for any definitive conclusions,” McDonald wrote. McDonald stated that the people who were interviewed should have been identified, as well

back to the 1920s. It covers the two-year period when Millard was building his house as well as 53 years of grove records. The Pete Ragan presentation will be held at La Flecha House at 6036 La Flecha and Historical Landmark #1 in the village of Rancho Santa Fe.

as whether their method for selection was random or specific. She also stated in her letter that a “proper analysis” should include the questions posed, negative and positive responses. Because the report didn’t have that information she considered it “statistically invalid and unreliable.” “There were some helpful suggestions presented in the report that could improve the CDRC’s function and relationship with the community, however, the negative comments, particularly on the committee and staff are mainly unjustified, mostly unfounded and excessive in nature,” McDonald wrote. McDonald stated that the CDRC must have the opportunity to review and comment on the report before the Association board takes any action. “The RSF Association’s repeated failure to follow proper and acceptable procedures in situations such as this may stoke the smoldering flames of discontent within the community,” McDonald wrote. Boon stated again that all the board was doing that day was moving the report along. Candace Humber, past president of the CDRC, said that the committee had been surprised that Rick Engineering was conducting the review because no one had consulted with them about it beforehand. Humber, who had read the report, said that she was encouraged by one line in the report that showed high praise of the CDRC: “The existing procedures and process of accepting applications and reviewing proposed improvements, conducting public meetings, communicating with applicants and neighbors and making decisions appears to be functioning at a high level and far exceeds similar design review processes.”

FROM BUDGET, A2 or disrupting student performance. He said the district was able to manage and reduce its costs by doing things like not hiring new people and not considering raises. Salazar questioned how it will work for the district to not consider raises with the language in the teachers’ contract that states SDUHSD teachers must be number one in the county. “Wouldn’t we be required to give everybody a raise if another district pays more?” Salazar asked. Schmitt said it’s not a requirement at all and that particular clause has been in the contract for many years — in 2012, SDUHSD wasn’t number one but there wasn’t a demand for salary increases which he attributes to the district’s ability to communicate and negotiate with teachers. “Anything contractual is negotiable,” he said. Muir said deficit spending is “not a responsible way to prepare a budget” and said her reason not to support the budget was due to her belief that class sizes will be increased due to the language in the teacher contracts. Muir said many teachers have contacted her and told her the class sizes are too full. “You’ve mentioned that in public numerous times and you’ve been corrected numerous times. You are wrong,” Schmitt said. “We are not increasing, the contract has nothing to do with that. We are actually the healthiest in class size we’ve been in a decade. We’ve actually reduced class sizes. “It’s been explained to you multiple times. You’re wrong, you’re reading (the contract) wrong, no one else reads it that way,” he said. “Pretty much everybody who’s looked at the contract besides you has said that,” Muir said. “I’m not going to argue with you other than to point out that we have not raised class sizes, the record shows that,” Schmitt said. “We believe we’re in great shape. The teachers believe we’re healthy in class size, the parents haven’t complained about it, the kids are thriving.” Muir remained unconvinced and said they would have to agree to disagree. After the 3-2 vote, Herman asked Associate Superintendent of Business Services and soon-to-be Interim Superintendent Eric Dill what would happen if the majority of the board voted against the budget. Dill said if it didn’t happen on June 30, the end of the district’s fiscal year, the district would be cut

It is difficult to leave such a great position, and I will miss the students and staff I was lucky enough to work with over the last year. “As much as I have enjoyed my current position, the opportunity to return to SDUHSD to lead my alma mater is too great to pass up. I feel honored to be chosen to lead a school that means so much to me and my family. I am looking forward to reuniting with the best staff I have ever worked with, as well as the incredible students and families that make Torrey Pines a very special place. “Being a site principal is something I enjoy very much, and it is something I take very seriously. I am happy to be back in a

off from its financial system. “That’s just one item, just one area that you disagree with, so you would vote against the entire budget and basically shut down our district on that one item?’ Herman asked Muir. “The most important thing in this district is low class sizes,” Muir stated. Herman, SDUHSD Vice President Joyce Dalessandro and SDUHSD President Beth Hergesheimer all expressed disagreement with Muir’s statement: “The most important thing is to serve our students,” Hergesheimer said. “Teachers, curriculum, I mean we could go on forever. You can’t say that’s the most important thing, besides which, it isn’t increasing,” Dalessandro said. Muir stated that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Several parents in attendance also spoke out about the district’s addition of social workers next year. As outlined in the district’s Local Control Accountability Plan, the district proposes to add a new site social worker role at all of the high school campuses to help support the counselors. They will also add three mental health providers, each of whom will come with two to three interns to assist. The new social worker and mental health support provider job descriptions were approved by the board at the June 30 meeting. Earl Warren parent Louisa Triandis, an adjunct lecturer in social work at the University of Southern California, said she has seen a real need for more mental health support for students and complimented the district on an excellent plan. San Dieguito High School Academy parent Pamella Franzwa, a social worker who is also a clinical associate professor at USC, also spoke in support of social workers that are uniquely trained to look at the person and the environment and could help bridge the gulf that can happen between the child and the school. She said the new role will serve a “critical function in students’ social and emotional development.” “These days, all kids have a rough go of it and anything you can do to help them to navigate appropriately and get a handle on the feelings and all the stressors that they have now will lead to them becoming more productive members of society and they can be the best they can be,” said Mary Turk, a Torrey Pines parent. “I see a huge benefit and applaud you for having the wisdom to address this issue.” position where I can work directly with students, staff, and families to achieve their goals. It is my hope, my goal, and my driving desire to positively impact students the way a TPHS teacher did for me when I was a student there. I have always been a Falcon, and I will always be a Falcon, and I can’t wait to back.” Coppo said, “I’m very familiar with the history and culture of TPHS, having worked with principals Jaffe and Killeen over a span of seven years. Even during my year away, I’ve been following the successes and changes at TPHS, and I am looking forward to helping guide the school into a new era. It’s a school full of hard working, spirited, intelligent and creative people. I feel truly honored and incredibly lucky to lead such an amazing school in an incredible district.” Coppo started in his new position on July 1, 2016. Visit www.sduhsd.net.

JULY 7, 2016

2016 Del Mar racing season offers something for everyone BY KELLEY CARLSON ummer racing at Del Mar once again promises to be a flashy affair, with big hats, colorful silks, musical stars, and the return of the popular racehorse “Chrome.” The 39-day season kicks off July 15 and runs through Labor Day, Sept. 5. “This year, there is especially something for everyone,” from family-oriented activities to food and drink events, music and a new discount program, said Chris Bahr, director of events and promotions. “Everything is back from past years, and we’re doing some experiments. We’re really happy how things have turned out for this year.” Among the highlights is the expected return of California Chrome. The 2014 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner last appeared at the seaside oval almost two years ago, when he won the Grade I, $300,000 Hollywood Derby in his first try on the turf. In 2015, the chestnut horse spent much of his time overseas and took time off to recuperate from injuries, but he seems to be back to his winning ways this year. California Chrome won the Grade II, $200,500 San Pasqual Stakes in his seasonal debut, then traveled to Dubai, where he won the Grade I, $10 million Dubai World Cup, en route to becoming the richest racehorse in North American history. According to California Chrome’s connections, the next stop is the Grade II, $200,000 San Diego Handicap at Del Mar on July 23. If he does well, he could return in the Grade I, $1 million TVG Pacific Classic – and possibly face the champion filly Beholder – on Aug. 20.

California Chrome is expected to return to Del Mar this season. Bahr said that if all goes according to plan, the public will be able to watch California Chrome work out around 7:45 a.m. July 16, just before the start of Donuts Day at 8 a.m. California Chrome likely won’t

be the only Kentucky Derby winner on the grounds, however. This year’s victor, Nyquist, is expected to train at Del Mar, although his next start was undetermined as of press time. Center stage

While much of the attention will be focused on horses during the day, performers from a variety of genres will be in the spotlight on Friday and Saturday evenings. “Hands down, this is the best and most diverse lineup in our 20-year history (of concerts),” Bahr said. Rock band 311 and reggae vocalist Matisyahu are expected to be among the most popular acts, and they’re slated to take the stage on Aug. 13. There will be other reggae artists during the season, as well, including Ziggy Marley (July 30), Pepper (Aug. 26) and The Wailers (Sept. 2).

Popular Hats Contest back for Friday’s Opening Day

BY KELLEY CARLSON Del Mar is gearing up for a fashionable and fabulous Friday opening. The summer season will kick off on July 15, and it’s the first time in a while that it will be held at the start of a weekend, said Chris Bahr, director of events and promotions. Last year, Opening Day was a Thursday, and for many years, it traditionally fell on a Wednesday. Moving to a Friday allows for more ample turnaround time from the end of the San Diego County Fair, on July 4.

“We’re excited to see what happens on a Friday,” Bahr said. More than 40,000 people are expected to attend, and many of them will be showcasing creative and stylish hats in hopes of winning a share of more than $5,000 in prizes. To participate in the Hats Contest, attendees can sign up between 11:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. in the Plaza de Mexico, just inside the Stretch Run admission gates. They can enter in the categories of Most Glamorous, Best Racing Theme, Funniest/Most Outrageous, Best Fascinator and

Flowers/All Other. The winners of each category will receive $300, along with a Studio Savvy gift basket valued at $250. Second place will net $200, and third place will get $100. The grand prize winner will be rewarded with a one-night stay at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar and a meal for two at Addison Restaurant, valued at more than $1,000. Meanwhile, all participants will receive two free admission passes to return to the races. Those who are looking for “The Party” can head to the Seaside Cabana, and this year, it has been

expanded with new partners and activities, Bahr said. For $30 — which includes Stretch Run admission and special access to the event — revelers can enjoy perks such as a dance floor and games tent, gourmet food trucks, a beer garden, prize giveaways, jumbo video boards, and the Red Bull Tour Bus with some of the top DJs in the industry. Other traditional events will be back, as well. The Morgan Lee Band, a country act, will perform the national anthem, and a person or SEE HATS, B18

Whole lotta shakin’ in musical revue at North Coast Rep BY DIANA SAENGER he foot-stomping, roof-raising “Ain’t Misbehavin – The Fats Waller Musical Show,” opens at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, July 13. It’s an award-winning musical tribute to the black musicians of the 1920s and ‘30s. Conceived by Richard Maltby, Jr., and Murray Horwitz, this production is directed by actress, singer, painter, producer and director Yvette Freeman (“Gee’s Bend,” NCRT and TV’s “ER,” “Orange is the New Black”), who has worked with NCRT Artistic Director David Ellenstein for many years. “I’m very excited about this play,” Freeman said. “I ended up in ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’’on Broadway and went on to star in stage productions with national and international companies. Theater is in my bones and I can still sing, but older now, I don’t do the dancing. I think younger people should be performing these shows and older people like me directing and sharing what we know about the business with the next generation.” Based on the signature Fats Waller song, the musical returns audiences to the glory days of the Harlem Renaissance when the Cotton Club and Savoy Ballroom served as playgrounds for high society. Freeman said part of the show’s success is Julia Lehman’s choreography.

“Julia is an assistant to Arthur Faria, who created the original staging and choreography for the 1978 Tony Award-winning musical ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’,” she said. He received both the Tony and Drama Desk award nominations, and shared the Obie for the original production at the Manhattan Theatre Club. He recreated his work for the 10th anniversary Broadway revival starring the original cast. Faria will be at the show, as will Horwitz and some of the other contributors. Freeman said she is also happy to work with her husband, music director Lanny Hartley. He studied music education at Indiana University and became an accomplished pianist, composer, director and teacher, garnering many awards. It was when he collaborated with Freeman on “Dinah Was” that they fell in love and got married. “This music never seems to be dated because it’s so enjoyable. Why would I continue to work on something if it didn’t inspire people, as it does, from generation to generation? If you’re of the age of the songs, you remember where you were when they came out. If you are younger, you’ll hear words of poetry. Each song tells the story, and this is also the story of Fat Waller’s life. The story goes back to things in the old

She boasted about the “wonderful” all-local cast, which she said she was glad to choose with Ellenstein’s help. “For 20 or 30 years or more, this show has made people happy. They have fun and just love it, so that’s what we

expect for audiences here, as well,” Freeman said. ■ IF YOU GO: “Ain’t Misbehavin’ — The Fats Waller Musical Show,” runs July 13-Aug. 7 at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets from $39. (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org

Playwright returns to La Jolla with his ‘Tiger Style’ at the Playhouse

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY ASHLEY MACKIN Talk about a homecoming! Tickets are on sale for “Tiger Style!” a comedy coming to La Jolla Playhouse this fall, written by La Jolla High School graduate Mike Lew. And although Lew grew up near the Playhouse, he said he never imagined he would one day stage a production there. “My dad worked at the VA Hospital at UCSD, and I knew there was always this theater nestled there. While I went to plays there when I was a kid, I didn’t know I would eventually get into theater,” he said. “I’ve had productions in New York, but this will be the first time I’m working back home. It’s something I’ve dreamed of doing for a long time.” During his time at La Jolla High School (Class of 1999), Lew said he was on a science track, participating in Science Fairs and the Science Olympiads. Trading research notes for script writing, he said it took him a while to see the “rigor” involved in playwriting. “Having a science background, it seemed people in theater were just making stuff up, so it didn’t really make sense to me,” he said. But while attending college at Yale, he was exposed to the performing arts and felt a calling. “I can’t say where it came from, but I went to school in an arts-friendly atmosphere, so maybe it was a matter of exposure,” he said. In his relatively short time in the world of theater, Lew has racked up some serious accolades. He is a member of the Dramatists Guild Council; a Tony voter; and recipient of the Lanford Wilson Award, Helen Merrill Award, the Kendeda and AracaWorks Grad

‘Tiger Style’ playwright and La Jolla native Mike Lew.

‘Tiger Style’ premieres Sept. 6 at La Jolla Playhouse.

Playwriting Awards, Heideman Award, Pacific/Rim Prize, and is a Sam French Festival Winner. He is co-director of Ma-Yi Writers Lab, the largest collective of Asian-American playwrights in the country, and serves on the Members' Council of Ensemble Studio Theater. “Tiger Style!” is one of 10 productions in which he has been a part. Director Jaime Castañeda said he and Lew worked on this play together at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center’s National Playwrights Conference two summers ago. “When I joined the La Jolla Playhouse staff last year, I knew it would be a terrific opportunity to bring this

talented writer and his hilarious new play back to his hometown,” Castañeda said. Ten years in the making, and somehow a comedy, Lew said the play answers questions he had about growing up as an Asian-American and provides a counter-narrative to the stereotyped, disciplinarian style of parenting. “The play is personal and wrestles with a lot of questions I had growing up about being an Asian-American in this country and how outside perceptions of race influence how people are treated in this county,” he said. “I arrived at this play when I knew what I

wanted it to say and how to address the ‘Asian type of parenting’ discussion. There are people who have lived through that who’ve been in that discussion. Now we get to have that discussion with a local audience, and to have it in my hometown is meaningful to me.” The story focuses on “an egghead brother-sister pair,” Albert and Jennifer Chen, who went to Harvard and did all the right things academically to please their parents. But when entering the real world, they find they “suck at adult life,” Lew explained. “They’re trying to figure out what went wrong, after following the gospel of academic achievement their parents preached to them that worked out so well for them as kids.” As art imitates life, Albert and Jennifer are, like Lew, third-generation Asian-Americans and their story explores how generations have progressed. “My grandparents were immigrants, and they raised my parents a certain way, and my parents raised me a certain way,” he said. “So this is the family play I was scared to write. In the industry there’s a lot of expectation for me to have an immigrant story people have heard, but I don’t have that story, I have a comedy that is completely different.” Hopeful that theater-goers will enjoy his comedy, but still absorb the political message behind it, Lew said, “I’m really excited to have people from La Jolla come see it; this is something I’ve been waiting for.” ■ IF YOU GO: “Tiger Style!” runs Sept. 6-Oct. 2 at La Jolla Playhouse’s Potiker Theatre, 2910 La Jolla Village Drive on UCSD campus.

Juniors and seniors have the option of choosing from numerous school-designed trips or designing their own year-end trips or internships. Janese, a freshman, traveled to China with the ninth-grade class. Following various itineraries, groups of students explored ancient and modern Beijing, hiked the Great Wall and headed to two distinctly different parts of China: the provinces of Guangxi and Yunnan. Students’ activities ranged from volunteering labor and teaching at rural primary schools, learning about rice farming and tea production, Chinese cooking lessons, regional dancing, and

homestays with local families. Sapp, a senior, traveled with a group to Ladakh, India, where students learned about the unique educational challenges and opportunities facing young people in remote Himalayan communities. The group stayed at Lingshed Residential hostel, which serves as a boarding facility for students from nearby villages who would not otherwise have access to quality education. While there, Pacific Ridge students interviewed staff, shadowed school students, took photos and video, and set up web sites to help the hostel raise private funding and scholarships. The trip also included a rafting excursion on the Zanskat River; tours of a local mosque, monastery, and sikh temple; and a visit to the Taj Mahal. Janese and Sapp weren’t the only local residents to take part in Pacific Ridge School’s global travel program. On trips to more than 14 destinations worldwide, students learned about astronomy in Chile, urban design and architecture in Berlin/Copenhagen, rainforest conservation in Costa Rica, and more.

Chuck Courtney Honorary Scholarship Fund celebrates ‘Future Legends’ The Chuck Courtney Honorary Scholarship Fund recently celebrated its first Future Legend college graduate, Steven Sakara. Steven received the first scholarship granted in 2012 and graduated May 14 from Baylor University with a B.S. in business and finance. Currently, eight other deserving scholars are receiving mentoring and financial support. Jim and Bev Boyce co-chair a group of 16 dedicated couples, and members of the RSF Golf Club, who enjoy a mentoring relationship with their selected Future Legend while they are attending university. The celebration, held June 20 at the RSF Golf Club, was also an opportunity to combine the celebration with a successful fundraiser to further assist this extraordinarily successful scholarship fund. Activities of the day included a putting contest and a Shamble format golf tournament, followed by a 19th hole cocktail

party and silent auction. The highlight of the evening was when the doors to the dining room opened with the upbeat music of the Tim Holcombe Band welcoming everyone for a sumptuous dinner and dancing. Abbey Gibb, TV host and anchor for Fox 5 acted as auctioneer for the live auction. There was also a very proud announcement that Steven Sakara will “give back” to Future Legends as a member of the Board of Trustees. Dan Green once again so generously stepped up to sponsor the day of celebration. The evening was so successful it inspired Bob Baker to match Dan Green’s generosity. Bob Baker donated the seed money that started the Chuck Courtney Honorary Scholarship Fund in 2012. Dancing to the lively music of the Tim Holcombe Band continued long after dinner. For more, see photos of the event at www.rsfreview.com and in the Review’s June 30 issue.

New RSF Village eatery set to open in late July BY JOE TASH The newest entry on Rancho Santa Fe’s dining scene is aiming for a casual ambiance with an air of sophistication. Ponsaty’s, headed by Chef Patrick Ponsaty, will open for business in late July, offering a formal dining room, bar, front patio and courtyard for a range of dining possibilities. The new eatery is owned by Escondido-based Grand Restaurant Group, and will occupy the space on Paseo Delicias in the Rancho Santa Fe Village formerly occupied by Delicias restaurant. “We’re offering a lot of different dining experiences the Ranch has been without for a while,” said Derry Van Nortwick, vice president of operations for the restaurant group, who will manage the “front of the house” at Ponsaty’s. “We hope to earn a seat at the table in this community with what we’re doing.” Sandra DiCicco, founder of the Grand Restaurant Group and a Rancho Santa Fe resident, said her team wants Ponsaty’s to have a family-friendly atmosphere, fine for children and even four-legged friends on the patio. “We want people to be comfortable and feel very welcome,” she said. When the restaurant opens in late July (a specific opening date has not yet been set), it will serve dinner, and then expand its opening hours to lunch and Sunday brunch in early August. Ponsaty’s will be closed on Mondays. Although Ponsaty is still putting the finishing touches on the menu – as workers

Ponsaty will continue to be involved with Bellamy’s, a Grand Restaurant Group establishment in Escondido, as he launches his namesake eatery in the Village. A fifth-generation chef, Ponsaty gained his first kitchen experience working with his father in the family’s restaurant near Toulouse, France. The new restaurant will feature fresh ingredients such as locally grown vegetables, seafood and salads, prepared simply, Ponsaty said. The lunch menu will include paninis, sandwiches, salads and pizzas baked

in the new pizza oven in the gleaming kitchen. As examples, on a recent evening Ponsaty and his staff prepared appetizers with smoked sturgeon, caviar and blini, or tiny pancakes, and two types of cold soups – yellow corn with stone crab and melon gazpacho. Pansaty said the restaurant will offer a variety of cold soups during the summer and hot soups in the winter. Ponsaty said he is looking forward to greeting residents of Rancho Santa Fe who have dined at Bellamy’s in Escondido and another restaurant where he previously worked in Rancho Bernardo. Ponsaty is one of two San Diego chefs who currently hold the designation as “master French chef,” bestowed by a French culinary organization.

Smoked sturgeon, caviar and blini appetizers prepared by the restaurant's staff.

“I’m very excited to be in Rancho Santa Fe for sure,” he said. Ponsaty said he is a “friendly chef,” and enjoys interacting with diners. “To run a restaurant is not only about cooking, but it’s about fun.” Ponsaty’s will be the sixth restaurant that Ponsaty has opened, and he said he enjoys starting with a blank slate guiding the concept of a new restaurant into reality. “Every day is a different challenge for the chef,” he said. Along with its cuisine, the restaurant will feature live music by select performers in its rear courtyard, said Van Nortwick. The design –overseen by Lawrence Solc – includes custom faux alligator chairs, maple burl tables and a serpentine chandelier from Portugal that resembles dangling icicles.

Let’s Talk About Home Care. Let’s talk about how high quality, personalized in-home care can help you or a loved one. Home care can keep older adults in their homes. 9 out of 10 of seniors prefer to age in their own homes. Hiring a caregiver provides the extra support an older adult may need to stay where they most prefer: at home. Home care helps seniors stay independent longer. A caregiver provides support with activities of daily living, while encouraging mental and physical stimulation and overall wellness. They also promote safety in the home by preventing falls or other accidents. Home care is personalized to each family. Our care plans at Home Care Assistance are tailored specifically to each client’s unique needs and preferences. Caregivers are expertly matched and managed by our client care team. Caregivers are available for a few hours every day or around-the-clock. Home care supports advanced care needs. Our caregivers are experienced and trained to support older adults who are transitioning home from the hospital, recovering from a stroke or a major medical procedure, or managing chronic conditions such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or diabetes.

offer reduced prices on admission, through Diamond Club promotions (signup is free), season passes and books of parking tickets. But this summer, there will also be deals on food and beverages. “We surveyed our fans, we did focus groups, and we had personal contacts, and they primarily pointed us toward wanting lower prices during a day at the races,” said Craig Dado, Del Mar’s chief marketing officer. “So we’re doing it. We’re offering discounts on all fronts – food and beverage especially, along with other price values for all.” The “50% Bonus” program allows visitors to buy $30 worth of script for $20 each day they are at the races. The script – distributed in $10 chits – can be used for both food and beverage anywhere at the track, and throughout the season. To be eligible, guests must be Diamond Club members and be on their third visit to the track. Also, during “Happy Hour(s) Fridays,” from 2 to 6 p.m. every Friday (except Opening Day, July 15), patrons will be able to buy the track’s signature cocktails for half price. Sunny outlook Track President Joe Harper has positive predictions heading into Del Mar’s 77th season. “We had some circumstances go against us last year, but I see better times ahead,” he said. “We’re opening for the first time on a Friday in forever, and I think that will kick off a terrific starter weekend. We’ve got great racing lined up once more, and a ton of additional events and happenings set to go. You can’t beat a summer at Del Mar, and I can just feel that this one is going to be a winner.”

The sublime sounds of the iPalpiti Festival come to Encinitas this week With its beautiful beaches and delicious restaurants, Encinitas is truly a feast for the senses. Not to be left out, the ears of local residents are in for a treat later this month when the annual iPalpiti Festival returns to the city for the fifth straight year. In its 19th year overall, the festival will kick off in Encinitas July 7-10 before heading north to the Greater Los Angeles area. On July 16, the tour comes back down to Encinitas for a final performance. The initial four concerts, each set for 7:30 p.m., will feature seven world-class soloists from around the globe performing in front of the picturesqe ocean backdrop at the Encinitas Library. First up among the soloists, on July 7, is Duo Gurfinkel, made up of twin brothers Alex and Daniel from Israel. The pair will perform popular miniatures from Mozart, Paganini, Gershwin and Klezmer, among others, in special arrangements for two clarinets. The Gurfinkels were discovered by Zubin Mehta, Conductor of the Israel Philharmonic. “Daniel and Alexander Gurfinkel are two of the most talented musicians among the young generation of Israeli’s

BILL DEAN

The featured soloists at a previous iPalpiti Festival perform at the Encinitas Library at sunset. The festival returns to Encinitas next week with four concerts at the library, followed by one at the St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church on July 16. today,” Mehta said in a release. The next night, violinists Davide de Ascaniis and Haoyue Liao, cellist Carl-Oscar Østerlind and pianist Jacopo Giacopuzzi

will perform in different combinations in a program titled “Dvorak and Sibelius.” Giacopuzzi is a 28-year-old-Italian, who moved

to the United States in 2012, while de Ascaniis was born in Italy in 1991. Liao is Chinese, and Østerlind is Danish. The July 9 event will bring

back Duo Gurfinkel and Giacopuzzi to join American violist Julia Clancy to perform pieces from Germany and Spain. The four-night extravaganza of excellent featured soloists wraps up July 10 with all seven of them taking the stage to perform Brahms’ Clarinet Trio Op. 114 and Clarinet Quintet Op. 115. After the festival heads to Beverly Hills for a few performances, the 25-member iPalpiti Orchestra, conducted by Eduard Schmieder and featuring world-class young musicians from 18 different countries, will play at the St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church on July 16. The orchestra iPalpiti (Italian for heartbeats) is unique in that it draws its members from prize-winning laureates of international competitions for the three-week summer music festival. The July 16 performance is titled “From Vivaldi to Hollywood.” For information on the five Encinitas concerts, visit www.ipalpiti.org. Tickets for each library performance are $15, the orchestra concert is $25, four-concert festival passes cost $55 and $75 will get local music fans into all five shows.

A Brief Guide to Counters and Flooring In the previous columns, we’ve discussed the general range of what to expect when deciding on your materials for your new home or remodel. Here is a handy list to give you a more detailed idea of what your options are for counters and ﬂooring. Ultimately, you should choose the look you love, since you will have to live with it for a while. However, it’s also good to know what types of materials best suit particular homes and lifestyles. Going to showrooms for tile and other ﬂooring materials can be overwhelming, but

there is something thrilling about the handson process of touching the materials and imagining them in your new house. To avoid any anxieties during the decision-making process, it’s best to go in with a plan in mind. Have an idea of what materials suit your home best and how much you can spend. Choosing your countertop. • Granite. This comes in polished and honed. Polished granite is the top choice for most homeowners, as it offers a variety of style and color options, has the highend look of marble, and remains one of the most durable options. With granite, visit a warehouse and walk the aisles of slabs of various patterns to really get a sense of your future kitchen or bathroom. Honed offers a matte ﬁnish, which lends a modern twist to the style while retaining the durability of regular granite. • Quartz. One of the new darlings in countertop materials, quartz countertops are engineered to resist stains, acid, scratches, heat, and impacts. The surface also isn’t porous like natural stone and so doesn’t need

to be sealed, so it’s virtually maintenance free. It also ranges in color and pattern to ﬁt most kitchen styles. • Marble. This material offers a highend appearance with a cost comparable to granite, and the veining is ideal for disguising wear and staining. However, marble can be porous, so without regular sealing and special care with acidic elements, staining and etching can be a problem. • Travertine. This material is favored for its Old-World look, ideal for Tuscan-Revival styles. However, you can combine it with other materials, such as stainless steel or wood, for an updated look. • Laminate. This is the most budgetfriendly option of all. This retro material is ideal for a mid-century style, but laminate is also seeing a resurgence in popularity because of new patters made to resemble natural wood, stone, and quartz at a fraction of the cost. • Wood. The butcher-block style works for either a rustic farm-house style or a hip industrial style when mixed with metal

ﬁnishes and barstools. Wood is relatively budget-friendly and comes with several beneﬁts. When it is properly sealed, it’s safe for food prep—including cutting meat—and you can set hot pots directly onto it without damage. • Stainless steel. For a very modern and industrial look, stainless steel offers durability and ease: it cleans up with cloth and mild soap. It also happens to be the most hygienic material for a countertop, as stainless steel resists bacterial buildup. One of the best features of this material is that it blends well with other colors and materials for a multidimensional kitchen. • Tile. Trends have been moving away from this option because of the durability factor—popular throughout the 1970s and ‘80s, tile provides a somewhat uneven surface because of grouting and is prone to chipping.

Kitchen Shrink BY CATHARINE L. KAUFMAN

Can’t take the heat? Beat summer sizzle!

Sweet Golden Gazpacho

■ Ingredients:

• 3 large yellow heirloom tomatoes, chopped • 2 large ripe mangos, peeled, cubed • 1/2 cup melon, ripe, cubed (your choice, cantaloupe, casaba)

hen summer’s furnace cranks on, no one really feels like cooking or even firing up the good old Weber. Alas, the only thing we might be inclined to make is reservations. Here are some seasonal tips for keeping cool, calm, hydrated and energized until autumn breezes in. Yin for Din: In Asian traditions there is a delicate balancing act between the principles of yin and yang, the former representing cooling foods that induce cold energy and a calming effect on the body, the latter “heaty” or heat-provoking ones. Typical cooling foods include bamboo shoots, bananas, crab, lettuces, particularly bitter Romaine, seaweed, melons, cucumber, yogurt, pineapple, turmeric, assorted mushrooms, especially criminis, and various white-hued roots. These yummy yins are salty and lean, rife with potassium, soggy and wet, and thrive with little sunlight. The steamy yangs, on the other hand, are sweet, fatty, hard and dry foods that contain a lode of sodium, and sprout under the blazing sun. Some examples of “heaty” foods are ginger, cinnamon bark, soybean oil, coffee, onions, apricots, liver, beef and red peppers. So when you want a cooling sensation, amp up the yins, or

add some to balance your spicy yangs. Pair a juicy, chilled slice of melon (honeydew, cantaloupe or the quintessential fruit of summer, the mighty watermelon), or some mineral-rich vegetarian sea treasures (nori, arame or kombu) with a plate of fried rice or spicy noodles to put out the fire. Give it Some Juice: Keep your kitchen cool by “cooking” with acid instead of heat. Lemon, lime and other lip-puckering citrus juices make a wonderful marinade to denature the fibers of assorted proteins, so you will not need to apply heat to safely prepare these assorted offerings. Whip up a batch of seafood ceviche with deep-sea scallops, wild-caught shrimp, snapper and salmon, blended with chopped red onion and cucumber, cilantro, a Technicolor of heirloom tomatoes and chunks of Hass avocado in an intoxicating lemon-lime marinade to cool your heels all summer long. Mint Condition: Toss some fresh, exhilarating mint leaves into your summer salads, stir-fries, iced teas and lemonades, pilafs and taboulis, or top off lamburgers, grilled chicken and frozen treats.

Dr. Sears went on to share her ambitious Pedal-funded research project that aims to determine the relationship between nightly fasting and decreased recurrence of certain cancers in large population groups.

A Coffee Break: Cut back or eliminate caffeinated coffees, teas and sodas, along with alcohol as these diuretics cause precious fluid loss. Stay hydrated with plenty of water throughout the day, made more palatable with a splash of pomegranate juice, a few squirts of lime, lemon or tangerine juice, or some cucumber slices or fresh berries tossed into an icy pitcher. Electrolyte drinks are also important to restore lost fluids, especially post-exercise. Soup Up: Sweet or savory chilled summer soups showcase the season’s bountiful beauties bursting with vibrant colors and sun-ripened flavors. Indulge in a slew of these refreshing liquid salads from avocado lime bisque and shrimp saffron pistachio to raspberry vichyssoise and fresh minty sweet pea.
