BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) board continues to face questions on how it plans to address the issue of the ATP (adult transition program) portables on the Earl Warren Middle School campus. Parents feel that the conditions are “separate and unequal” with two portables on the brand new middle school campus that they contend place students with special needs into what amounts to “cramped tool sheds” with limited windows. At the July 13 board meeting, the board split 2-2 on spending $33,000 to add two windows and two doors with windows to improve the condition of the existing portables with board members Mo Muir and John Salazar voting against the proposal. In voting in favor of the proposal, SDUHSD Board President Amy Herman and board member Beth Hergesheimer acknowledged that there are capacity issues with the ATP portables but they were aiming for a short-term solution for the coming school year. Herman said she has concerns about making the existing facilities safe and light. “It will not get better if we don’t have ventilation and SEE CLASSROOMS, A24

BY KAREN BILLING There have been a lot of changes at The Crosby at Rancho Santa Fe since Bando Group assumed ownership of the club on Jan. 30. Over the last few years, The Crosby went through bankruptcy and litigation between the club and the homeowners association before it was sold at public auction to Bando Development Co. Ltd., an international company based South Korea that has nearly 40 years of experience in golf and construction. Immediately after purchase the renovations began, including $1 million in golf course improvements, an expanded dining deck set to open next week and the updated, newly opened Grill Room. Crosby Club staff welcomed a group of local realtors on July 11 to learn more about what Shannon Mahoney, director of membership, called “the new Crosby days.” “It’s been a tough go for a few years and we’re really happy and excited to be under a new ownership group,” said General Manager Bryan Addis. “Bando

Future Legends Patriotic Celebration to be held The Future Legends Scholarship Fund, in cooperation with other community nonprofits, is producing an inspiring and patriotic concert honoring soldiers and veterans to be held at the Sanctuary of the RSF Village Church on 9/11. The concert will be presented by SongwritingWith:Soldiers. SongwritingWith:Soldiers, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, uses songwriting as a catalyst for positive change for veterans and active duty soldiers struggling with the aftermath of combat – being ambushed, taking rocket fire, losing buddies – as they face reentry into civilian life. The songs convey a deep sense of what it means to serve, and the struggles veterans face upon returning home, giving voice to somebody who might not otherwise be able to describe and cope with their experiences. www.songwritingwithsoldiers.org On April 24, Judy and Dick Arendsee graciously hosted loyal supporters of Future Legends and USO-sponsored SongwritingWith:Soldiers founder Darden Smith, who shared a few of the inspirational

stories and songs created through the collaborative songwriting effort of the songwriters and soldiers. Future Legends is proud to present this distinctive concert on 9/11. A special military band will welcome attendees to the evening’s festivities with a fabulous reception and dinner in the courtyard of the Village Church prior to the concert in the Sanctuary. Future Legends is a resounding success, with much credit to the very unique mentoring program chaired by Bev and Jim Boyce. Future Legends, also a 501(c)3, is proud to have three graduates and eight scholars currently enrolled in top level Universities successfully pursuing their goals in fields such as science, technology, medical research, etc. Proceeds will be shared between SongwritingWith:Soldiers and Future Legends. Admission information will be available through the Future Legends’ website, www.futurelegendsfund.org, or by phone: 858-692-4509.

Sheriff's Department: Don't fly drones near fire operations It is wildfire season and the Jennings Fire in East County recently showed just how fast a spark can ignite a massive fire. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, CAL FIRE and U.S. Forest Service are reminding the public to stop flying drones near fire operations. To watch a public safety video about drones, follow the Sheriff’s Department on VIMEO:

vimeo.com/225615450. When a drone is in the sky, firefighting planes and helicopters are grounded because a collision could be disastrous. This delay in air support also puts ground crews battling the fire at risk. It is against federal law to interfere with firefighting efforts to put out a fire. Remember: “If You Fly, We Can’t.”

Solana Beach sues Fairgrounds over proposed arena BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The $13 million proposal to transform the off-track betting center at the Del Mar Fairgrounds has ground to a halt, with the City of Solana Beach filing suit to force a lengthy environmental review. The 22nd District Agricultural Association (DAA), which owns and operates the fairgrounds, has rebuffed suggestions that its vision for turning the struggling Surfside Race Place into a 1,900-seat amphitheater and 7,000-square-foot beer complex is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Officials from Solana Beach and Del Mar pleaded with the DAA’s board of directors in May to take pause to consider the impacts to neighbors’ health and roadways from the 90 annual concerts and events, which they believe will be vastly more harmful than the impacts generated by the few hundred attendees who visit Surfside each day. The board dismissed those concerns and approved the plans on May 23, saying that the traffic and other impacts generated by the proposal will fall well within capacity approved 30 years ago. The DAA had hoped to begin construction right away and open the facility as early as next summer. But Solana Beach officials quietly sought judicial intervention, filing a

civil complaint on June 23 in San Diego Superior Court. In the complaint, Solana Beach City Attorney Johanna Canlas asks the court to halt the project, rescind the DAA’s May 23 approval and require CEQA review. “The District’s failure to perform any environmental review of the Proposed Project, and its failure to provide a meaningful response to the environmental issues raised by the City, leaves the City with no alternative but to seek the assistance of the Court to compel the District to comply with the procedural and substantive requirements of CEQA,” the complaint reads. The DAA had not filed a response as of Monday July 17. Fairgrounds officials have pushed for the project to help buoy the ailing betting center, which has seen attendance plummet. They had hoped to open the facility as early as next summer and generate annual profits of between $1.2 million to $2 million. A CEQA review could push that timeline back by a year or more. At its monthly meeting last week, the DAA board held an hour-long closed session to reconsider its May 23 decision. When the session returned to public session, the board made no comment and ended the meeting moments later.

TPHS student brings books to Brazil Beatriz De Oliveira making an impact with Books for a Change BY KAREN BILLING With her nonprofit Books for a Change, 15-year-old Torrey Pines High School sophomore Beatriz De Oliveira is sharing the love of reading with young children in Brazil. In less than a year, Bea has donated hundreds of books that reach more than 2,500 children in Brazilian daycare centers, called “creches.” “It has been really incredible,” Bea said. “I want to spread the passion of reading. Once you start reading, you can’t really stop. It helps as an entertaining pastime and a foundation of reading makes learning easier. I want to help those kids look toward their future and everything they can do.” Bea was born in Brazil and lived there until she was 3 years old. She often returns to Brazil to visit relatives and on a trip a few years ago, she accompanied her grandmother to a local public daycare. In Brazil, the government funds public daycares for children whose working parents are unable to care for them during the day. Bea came to donate some toys as her

grandmother taught English lessons and she was surprised by what she found: There were no books. “There was not a single book in the daycare, I was shocked,” said Bea, an avid reader who was always surrounded by books growing up. “In a building of 200 kids there was zero books.” Bea learned that there was no funding to provide books for the creches. As a result, she found many children lack the foundation of reading and concepts learned from books and go into the educational system unprepared and fall behind and repeat grade levels. A Regional Project for Education in Latin America and the Caribbean study found that the rate for repetition in elementary school grade levels in Brazil is 24.5 percent, with most children coming from areas of poverty. “A problem as simple as a lack of books in a daycare can lead a very bright child to lose hold of a promising future, continuing through the path of poverty and violence that prevails in the favelas and poor suburbs in Brazil,” Bea said.

Beatriz De Oliveira reading to children in Brazil. “I love reading and it’s always been a part of me. I wanted to do something to help my home away from home.” At just 14 years old, Bea started Books for a Change, with the idea to donate book shelves filled with 40 to 50 books each to the daycares. She designed her own logo, website and business cards and collected donations. In an effort to make her donations count, she did her research on the best books for each age group. As she travels to Brazil once a year, she was able to see the impact of her work on a trip last August. She won’t soon forget the sight of a 4-year-old child so enthralled by a book that they didn’t want to put it down. “Some of them have never even seen a book before in their entire

lives,” Bea said. “It’s amazing. When they see the books brought in, it’s the cutest thing. It means a lot to me to think that I’m giving them a chance, because reading is definitely something that they need. I’m giving a chance to someone who otherwise wouldn’t have had that opportunity.” Since beginning her nonprofit, Bea has formed a partnership with the Secretary of Education of Sertãozinho. The program is flourishing, with 400 books and 10 bookshelves donated to the city on June 22. This summer, Bea plans to make videos in Portuguese that will help teach children how to read with basics and activities — she hopes that

Living a Spectacular Life, You Can Have it All!

they will become an online resource that will reach even more people. Bea is also working to share the love of reading closer to her San Diego home. She has donated books to orphanages in Mexico and, on July 20, she donated 50 books to the Rady Children’s Hospital operating room. She hopes to replenish the library of books every few months. Bea would love to see her organization grow and hopes to start club chapters at local schools. “I would love to get the whole community involved,” Beatriz said. “It would be cool to see what an impact an entire community could make.” To learn more about Books for a Change, visit booksforachange.org.

Q&A: Female university pioneers past and present BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Over four decades as a university administrator, Marvalene Hughes amassed one of the most storied careers in the nation, blazing trails that few women of color had been down before — or have since. One of her most landmark positions came when she was appointed president of California State University-Stanislaus in 1994, becoming only the second African-American woman to earn the distinction in the CSU system. Hughes left Stanislaus in 2005 to lead Dillard University, a historically black college in New Orleans, until her retirement in 2011. Ellen Junn, CSU-Stanislaus’s current president, came to Hughes’ Del Mar home for two days at the end of June to finally meet her storied predecessor and soak up as much institutional memory as possible. The two talked about the long road they both faced as pioneers in their profession, especially in fundraising, closing the achievement gap for minority students, reaching underrepresented populations and reviving initiatives that faded after Hughes left Stanislaus. Capping the visit off, the two coordinated plans to get the Hughes back to the Stanislaus campus one more time: Junn has decided to commemorate the reflecting pond at the school’s main entrance in Hughes’ honor. The Del Mar Times joined the two women over a cup of tea on June 26. Answers below have been edited for length and clarity. DMT: Last year marked a milestone for the CSU system: of five presidencies that opened up, five women were appointed to the posts. Does it

Junn: When Marvalene was there, she was one of only two women out of the 21 presidents. Today we have 11 out of 23. It is unprecedented in any university system in the nation. It feels amazing. Marvalene can tell you what it’s like to be in a room full of trustees who are all white males. Having more women and a larger age range has made the discussion richer and more authentic and more spontaneous. Hughes: And far less stressful, I’m sure. Junn: Oh yes.

Hughes: It was a very lonely place to be. DMT: Dr. Hughes, what was it like to try to get your ideas forward, surrounded by that stark demographic, and represent the school the way you wanted to represent it? Hughes: I was very fortunate to have been at SDSU when affirmative action was introduced. In an academic institution and culture, for women to come in mandating equality, both as students and administrators, was just an amazing political time. SDSU while I was there created the first women’s studies program in the nation. It created the image for

the rest of the country. I wasn’t in women’s studies, but I was very connected those women and I was able to carry out their agenda in interesting ways because I was on the administrative team. It was a time that was a changing political climate for the CSUs and for universities everywhere. Once I became president at Stanislaus, the CSU system didn’t know quite what to do with the fact that they had these two women presidents, but I am so blessed to be a part of it. It was a life-changing experience. Junn: She was a pioneer, a true pioneer forging a path. DMT: When you’re on campus now, Dr. Junn, do you see a lasting impact? Junn: Yes, especially in terms of the physical landscape. When she started as president, there were only two buildings on campus. So nearly all of the buildings now are there as result of her vision and her extraordinary fundraising ability. She really set the landscape and then grew the programs. We now have nearly 70 degree programs. She really did set the stage and was critical in making that campus a successful and strong presence in the Central Valley. We have a branch in Stockton due to her vision. That was a satellite that she saw as having an important role in the university. Stockton has had a checkered history; they are the second-largest city in America to go bankrupt. It has a very underserved population and we, at CSU, have a responsibility, especially for the underserved areas, to provide greater access to education.

Students at the Metropolitan School of Panama experiment with robotics.

Canyon Crest nonprofit aims to bring robotics to Panama BY KAREN BILLING Canyon Crest Academy students have come together to form a new nonprofit called STEAM in Panama. The organization’s focus is on sponsoring a robotics team for middle school students at the Metropolitan School of Panama. Currently, Panama does not have a regional robotics representation in the FIRST Lego League and the group aims to create a program that will teach students to apply science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) concepts and ignite imagination and critical thinking skills. The nonprofit was formed by a group of incoming Canyon Crest seniors, across multiple disciplines of Conservatory program, from humanities to art. The student leadership team includes Sarah Cheney, Daniel Bruce, Susan Wahl, Yang Qing and Ivy Li. The group receives guidance from mentor teachers Timothy Stiven, Zachary Brown of the humanities Conservatory, and

Susan said the group would like to see the replication of the unique CCA culture on other campuses, stressing the importance of the integration of art and STEM into schools and how it can benefit students and their communities. “Our goal is to create an interconnected community between schools in Panama and San Diego and help students from both schools experience cooperation, leadership, and cross cultural experiences,” said Susan, an art Conservatory student who is interested in pursuing a science

major in college. “STEAM in Panama would create more opportunities for Panamanian students to take initiative in STEM and arts- related projects.” The students hope to not only bring robotics to Panama but help them bring them to San Diego to compete in a robotics competition The nonprofit is looking for sponsors to help, with a goal of $5,000-$8,000 to provide 20 robotics kits for the Panamanian students.

I just passed along my position as executive producer of J*Company to a younger parent because my daughter graduated, but I continue on the board of CJC.”

What’s been your contribution to the JCC?

MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN

Where are you from?

“My family came to San Diego in the mid-1950s. I was born at Sharp Hospital. I grew up in the El Cerro area and went to college at UCSD. But then I went to medical school at UC San Francisco, ended up living in New York for a while, then back to the Bay Area, and then I found myself raising my children in San Diego, most recently in La Jolla.”

What do you do for a living?

“My training is in medicine, so I am a pediatrician, but I’ve not been working in clinical practice for quite a few years. I’ve been fortunate to be able to stay home and raise my children, but I haven’t stayed

Monica Handler Penner home per se, I’ve been doing other things.”

What are those other things?

“I was lucky enough to get a place at the table at the Wexner Heritage Program, which is a leadership fellowship. I spent three years learning how to lead the community, immersed in a Jewish lens. After that, I found myself even busier with young children at home, so I was president of the Agency for Jewish Education, and then got involved with the JCC, mainly because my daughter loved theater and she started doing plays with J*Company. Eventually, I found myself the executive

“I think it was very comforting for the JCC that a pediatrician was running their youth theater. I implemented a lot of policies (addressing lice to the flu) that were very helpful for preventing infectious diseases ... because when you have 60, 80 or 90 kids together and they’re sharing costumes … kids can get sick. We ended up really limiting the amount of kids that got sick.”

I understand you also volunteer for Project Wildlife.

“The Humane Society sent me an e-mail and said they were looking for volunteers for Project Wildlife. I was like ‘Sure!’ I roped my husband in with me, because I didn’t want to do this by myself. So we got trained on how to handle wild animals. We decided to purchase leather gloves that go up to the shoulder, because we were to handle animals as small as humming birds and as big as raptors ... owls have claws that can tear your skin off! Seagulls and the birds

that you find here in La Jolla Shores can actually poke your eye out, so this is a very serious project we undertook. The animals are dropped off at various animal hospitals. My husband and I got the beach route from Oceanside down to La Jolla. We make a stops at some of the animal hospitals on the way … we’ve brought over an owl, big animals, little ones, like a humming bird, rats, opossums. We have to get them out of their crates and put them in our crate, which is more complicated than one might imagine, because if they’re birds, they can fly around.”

What do you do for fun?

“This is all fun! I worked so hard in college to get to medical school, worked so hard at medical school to become a resident, worked 100-hour weeks as a resident … so I’m a very purposeful person. I just love to learn and I love to grow. In addition to hanging out with friends, I exercise. I’m a big fan of staying fit.”

What’s your personal life like?

“We’re a ‘blended’ family. My husband has children, and I have children, so together we’ve raised them. We feel so fortunate that we were able to fall in love a second time in life. We were both divorced and single parents, and our community introduced us and fixed us up on blind date. It’s a wonderful union, the two families get along beautifully. I have two SEE Q&A, A26

The magic of reading RSF Library celebrates Harry Potter’s birthday

he Rancho Santa Fe Children’s Library celebrated Harry Potter’s birthday with a fun-filled party on July 12. Young wizards were able to fashion their own magic wands, experiment in potion class, get a balloon sword of Gryffindor and make their own owl. Butter Beer was served and kids could have fun with props in photo booths, try to

find hidden Horcruxes or attempt to escape the Forbidden Forest. Fictional Harry Potter’s birthday is July 31 and author JK Rowling just celebrated the 20-year anniversary of the first of the seven book series, “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, published on June 26, 1997. The party was part of the library’s Summer Reading Program, which concludes with an Ice Cream Social at the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center on Friday, July 28 at 2 p.m.

Party guests take a spin in the Flying Ford Anglia.

Q&A with local musical wunderkind BY SEBASTIAN MONTES hat if Kraftwerk had grown up sneaking around Del Mar’s choicest skate spots instead of fantasizing about the autobahn in 1970s Germany? Aaron M. Olson didn’t set out with such lofty aims, but the likeness is clear as the Del Mar native plays composer and frontman to L.A. Takedown, his seven-piece band building a name on the indie rock circuit on the strength of a well-received second album. Olson, a 2003 graduate of San Dieguito High School Academy, studied classical music history and theory at San Francisco State University before settling into the Los Angeles music scene. In 2015 he put out L.A. Takedown’s debut album, a single, sprawling 42-minute track that the L.A. Times contemplated as a new soundtrack for the city of angels. Olson then gathered together friends, including his older brother, and turned L.A. Takedown into a fully fleshed band churning out cinematic post-rock that never strays too far from Olson’s pop sensibilities. L.A. Takedown’s second album II (pronounced “dos”) dropped on May 10, drawing accolades from the likes of Noisey and NPR, and carried the band into a tour this spring that included an emotional stop at the Casbah in Little Italy. Having now settled back into his L.A. life — with an oh-so-apt gig at the Silver Lake Library — Olson took time to reminisce about his first awkward shows at Del Mar Hills Elementary

School, the subliminal influence of concerts at Powerhouse Park, the Del Mar Fairgrounds’ surprisingly hip acts, and how an hours-long walk to Black’s Beach became, 15 years later, the namesake inspiration for his band’s latest video. The conversation below has been edited for length and clarity. You started L.A. Takedown as a project to score a friend’s short films. The name comes from a 1989 movie by Michael Mann. Your songs are cinematic, instrumental compositions. Is that cinematic feel the essence of what you’re trying to do? Olson: What I’m really trying to do is to make music that I would enjoy listening to, and it just so happens that I enjoy film scores. So I guess my goal is to make music with that feeling of a film score but that also infuses elements of a three-minute pop song. Because I really am a big fan of pop music, from the Beatles to things like Tears for Fears. I’m trying to do things with instrumental music that can work those elements into it. I just love instrumental music. Growing up in Del Mar in the late ’90s and early 2000s, in the circles I ran in, everyone was really into Tortoise and all those Thrill Jockey and Drag City records, so I grew up with that ingrained in me. Did you have formative musical experiences at Del Mar Hills Elementary School? Olson: I had a band in elementary school. We would practice at our drummer’s house; he lived just north of the Del Mar Plaza. We played at a couple assemblies. It was just whatever

There’s a lot of Del Mar in the music Aaron Olson is putting out with his band L.A. Takedown. songs we happened to be able to figure out. I remember playing some probably pretty bad versions of Jimi Hendrix. I remember playing “Hey Mickey” — I have no idea why. This is 5th and 6th grade, so we were just figuring out our tastes, I guess. You went on to San Dieguito High School Academy. Do you remember your music teachers there? Was there someone who had a big influence on you? Olson: The two things that I did as a kid were music and skateboarding. They would kind of waver on which would be more at the forefront. Once I got to high school, I started meeting more musicians, and all the music classes offered at San Dieguito were a big thing for me. When I started we had Dr. Van Decker. He provided a lot of resources. He brought in a

recording arts class; he also started a MIDI class. Those were pretty big for me, to be able to spend two hours a day sitting in recording arts class or working on computer music. With a MIDI I could make impossible music — just the fastest, unending runs and scales, polyrhythmic stuff that I couldn’t play on my own. I think, in turn, that got me into Philip Glass and Tangerine Dream and things influenced by minimalism. Those were things that weren’t available at many high schools, for sure. Did you know then that you wanted to make music professionally? Olson: I didn’t admit it to myself but I knew that I loved to make music. I had a band in high school. It was instrumental. We really just SEE OLSON, A24

SEEKING TROPICAL

PARADISE? Sara Blaedel and Grand Chef Per Hallundbaek at Falsled Kro

LOIS ALTER MARK

Denmark’s ‘Queen of Crime’ author includes San Diego in her upcoming novel BY LOIS ALTER MARK he’s known as Denmark’s “Queen of Crime,” but author Sara Blaedel is likely to expand her reign locally with the upcoming American release of her entire Inspector Louise Rick catalog along with a brand new trilogy set in the United States. In fact, in “The Running Girl,” which will be published in January, Louise’s best friend, journalist Camilla Lind, drives down to San Diego in a scene inspired by Blaedel’s own experience. “I did a three-month road trip in the U.S. with my son back in 2008,” she explained. “We ended the tour in San Diego on the night President Obama was elected. So many people included us in their happiness and celebration, and I totally fell in love with the city.” Blaedel stayed downtown in the Gaslamp, where she spent a lot of time walking around, exploring and taking notes for possible future books. “The feeling there reminded me of the old part of Copenhagen,” she remembered. “It was so cozy, and I have tons of great memories from our stay. When we left, I had a strong feeling that I wanted to come back.” While she plans a book tour that she hopes will bring her back to San Diego and give her a chance to walk along the beach in Del Mar, many of her local readers are considering trips to Denmark to see why the Danish people are considered the happiest people in the world and to walk in the footsteps of Inspector Louise Rick. “Louise lives in my old apartment on Frederiksberg in Copenhagen,” said Blaedel. “I moved out a couple of years before I started writing the first book, and I handed it over to her. She lives on the fifth floor, and I know exactly how it feels for her to carry up all her grocery bags, what the view from her window looks like, who her neighbors are. It really brings her to life for me because I am totally with her.”

Fans can see Louise’s apartment from the street while they tour her neighborhood, stopping at the small shops and cafes for a kringle, a delicious Danish pastry, or a signature open-faced sandwich called smorrebrod. They can also easily check out the “dark side” of Copenhagen, which is featured in Blaedel’s book “The Night Woman.” “It’s actually only a few streets in the part of town named Vesterbro and it’s not scary at all,” she said. “It used to be known for prostitution and drug dealers but it’s now one of the hippest areas. I find the mix of people fascinating.” Blaedel also recommends a drive to Roskilde, a beautiful old town where many royals are buried and where “The Killing Forest” and “The Stolen Angel” are set. But to really get a sense of “hygge,” the philosophy of coziness by which the Danish live their lives and which has recently become a trendy goal for Americans, you have to follow in the footsteps of the author herself. According to Blaedel, that means heading to Hornbaek, the small fishing village where she has her summer house. That’s where she writes her books and gathers for intimate dinners with friends. Although most visitors spend their vacation in Copenhagen, seeing traditional sights like Tivoli Gardens, the canal along Nyhavn and the Little Mermaid statue, Blaedel recommends also making time to get out of the city and explore other parts of Denmark. One of her favorite places is Falsled Kro, a luxury country retreat on Fyn. She’s been going there since she was a little girl, and it’s the epitome of hygge. “When you drive on Fyn, it feels like you’ve turned back time,” she said. “It’s so beautiful and unspoiled, and I love the landscape and the views over the water.” She also suggests a stay at Kurhotel Skodsborg, the leading Nordic hotel spa, SEE BLAEDEL, A26

CCA volleyball coach focuses on mental, emotional aspect of being an athlete BY GIDEON RUBIN Considering her background, Rachel Morris might not on the surface appear to be the best candidate to coach one of the area’s most competitive high school volleyball programs. As a promising Division I prospect, Morris quit the sport midway through her junior year of high school. She’d had enough of the yelling, the screaming and the insensitivity of coaches who micromanaged every part of the game but didn’t pay much attention to what their players experienced as human beings. She’s channeled those sentiments into a coaching philosophy that emphasizes the mental and emotional parts of being a competitive athlete that she believes is frequently overlooked. Morris has put that philosophy into practice at Canyon Crest Academy, where she serves as co-head coach of the volleyball program with Ariel Haas. “I got into coaching to give to young athletes what I didn’t receive when I was growing up as a young athlete,” Morris said. Morris grew up in Manhattan Beach and started playing club volleyball when she was 7 in one of the nation’s most competitive regions. She was playing high school ball at Mira Costa High when the burnout got to be too much. Morris went on to play college ball at Oregon, walking on as a freshman and eventually earning a scholarship to play in the elite Pacific-12 Conference. Morris is in her fifth year coaching at

CCA. To say that she herself never envisioned her current role would be an understatement. “When I was a young athlete I remember telling my mom, I will never coach volleyball,” Morris said. “It seemed so boring, like why would I want to spend my weekends and my time doing that? “I remember that very vividly. I had zero interest in coaching.” Morris’ attitude towards coaching changed at Oregon, where she found a coaching staff pushed athletes without pushing them out to the door. She found herself enjoying coaching summer camps towards the end of her collegiate career in Eugene. “That’s kind of what motivated me to be the coach that I am, having people that were there to lift me up in tough times really showed me that this isn’t just a game, that there are so many life lessons, so many ups and downs,” Morris said. Morris uses motivational quotes and has a reading list for players on the high school and club teams. Tops on her reading list right now is Ryan Holiday’s “The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph.” But the most important element of coaching in Morris’ view is relationship-building. She does what she can to keep up with daily challenges her players face, everything from illnesses and injuries to tests and schoolwork. “If you have an athlete that truly believes that you believe in them they’ll run

ANNA SCIPIONE

CCA volleyball coach Rachel Morris through walls for you,” Morris said. Morris’ coaching style has won her high marks from players who appreciate a coach who’s in tune with the pressures and demands today’s high school athletes face. “She’s very involved in each kid and she really cares about each player individually, not only in their volleyball but personally

in a way that helps the player-coach connection be stronger,” said Hannah Martin, a USC-bound outside hitter who’ll be a senior this year.” Morris has fostered relationships that outlast the coaching. Former Torrey Pines standout Savvy Simo, who now plays at USC, and Kalie Wood, who’s now at Columbia, are among the growing list of top-level athletes she’s coached at CCA and the Wave club team. Haas believes Morris’ ability to build trust with players makes her a better coach. “She relates really well to the players,” Haas said. “She understands what they’re going through with their feelings and emotions and is able earn their trust. “A lot of teaching and coaching is about trust.” Morris said she learned through her own experience as a player how important an element of coaching compassion can be. She recalls one occasion when a coach found her sitting by herself in the locker room minutes before warmups, tears streaming down her face as she was grieving the death of her friend days earlier. “I remember being an absolute wreck,” Morris said. “One of my coaches came in there and was literally sitting in there holding me. “Wiped my face, got on the court, got out there and started playing,” Those are the types of memories that she believes aren’t easily forgotten. “I don’t remember the games, I don’t remember how many assists I had or many digs I had or aces,” Morris said. “Those are the things I remember.”

As clock ticks toward Breeders' Cup, Del Mar's summer season opens BY TOD LEONARD There is a digital clock in the foyer of the executive offices of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. Its bright red numbers are in constant movement. Late Monday morning the clock read: 108 days, 12 hours, 23 minutes. And at that moment, 25 seconds. That is the countdown to when Del Mar will host for the first time the biggest two days in horse racing, the Breeders’ Cup, on Nov. 3-4. Glancing at the clock, one occupant of the office joked, “If you look at that clock too much, it will drive you crazy.” It is a reminder of the much-welcomed worldwide attention that will come for a race track that still is a mystery to some, while also emphasizing that Del Mar, in its 78th season, will be under more scrutiny than ever, beginning with the summer meeting that starts Wednesday, July 19 (after presstime for this newspaper). “There’s definitely a different flavor in the air,” Del Mar CEO and President Joe Harper said Monday. “It smells a little more international.” Entering his 41st season at the track, Harper was not his usual natty and well-coiffed self. He stood in the shade of some trees by the paddock, wearing a faded black polo, dusty black work pants and hiking shoes. The former Hollywood child actor looked like he’d just returned from pitching hay on the backstretch. Two days before the women in their outrageous hats were to arrive, hands were getting dirty all over the place in preparation. And yet Harper was still less harried than he was last year at this time. The 2016 meeting opened on Friday, July 15, with a quick 11-day turnaround after the San Diego County Fair.

This year, Del Mar cut its racing schedule by three days with the hopes of giving its new superintendent more time to prepare the track while affording horses a longer rest following the close of Santa Anita’s meet July 4. “We lose some money but, frankly, it was the right thing to do,” Harper said. “It gave us more time to get ready. It gave the horsemen more time on the track before the races start. We’re breathing a little easier.” The breath holding will come on opening day (after presstime for this newspaper) and in the subsequent seven weeks as Del Mar tries to overcome the bad memories and negative publicity that came with 17 horse deaths in last year’s summer meeting and another five in the shorter fall season. Protests from animal rights advocates grew more fervent as the summer season progressed and the deaths mounted, and Harper concluded at the end of the meet, “You look for a smoking gun, and sometimes there just isn’t one. The nature of the sport came to roost on our porch this summer. “We’re going to be doing many things that we hope will cut down on these problems in the future.” Harper and Del Mar appear to have kept their promise in attempting to make the racing safer. Beyond shortening the meet, Del Mar hired well-respected Santa Anita superintendent Dennis Moore to create a dirt racing surface that’s more consistent with Santa Anita’s; turns on the course were further banked to relieve stress on the horses’ legs; at least 200 fewer horses will be housed at Del Mar, reducing the number of overall workouts; and Harper said a system of greater scrutiny among veterinarians and track

Del Mar CEO and President Joe Harper workers has been instituted in an effort to identify unhealthy horses before they’re entered in a race. Any horse that hasn’t raced in more than a year will be carefully watched, Harper said. “I was out there this morning and saw a horse that was a little sore,” Harper said. “It doesn’t mean he’s going to snap his leg off, and they may not run him, but those are the horses you want to take a closer look at.” On Monday, Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert said he had yet to breeze horses on the new Del Mar track, but added that he’d heard “good things” from jockeys after workouts began Saturday. Baffert is a staunch defender of Del Mar’s practices and noted he trained the current No. 1 horse in the world, Arrogate, here all last summer and brought the winner of $17 million to race at Del Mar twice this summer before entering him in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. “If I was worried about it, I wouldn’t be here with my horses,” Baffert said. He added, “One thing that’s different here is the air. It’s heavy. The horses get tired, not so much because of the track but because of the air. A lot of horses will get tired the first time you work them, and that plays into it.” Baffert said he was encouraged by the hiring of Moore, whom he contends is among the best superintendents in the business. Moore was not available for comment early in the week, but Harper said Moore has closely examined the track, digging down to the “sub-base” to find even small inconsistencies. It was Moore who also suggested the extra

banking, bringing Del Mar to a 5-degree grade that is the same as Santa Anita’s. The additional work was done at a cost of $250,000, Harper said. “Race track maintenance has changed so much,” said Tom Robbins, a Del Mar executive vice president who oversees racing. “Years ago it was 90 percent art and 10 percent science. Now it’s 60 percent art and 40 percent science. Dennis is one of those guys who embraces the scientific part.” Robbins has his own set of circumstances that have him feeling a little more nervous than usual heading into the meet. It’s his job to fill the eight to 10 races on the card for five days each week, and that became more concerning after Santa Anita had to cancel several days of racing this past meet for lack of entries. Asked if he could envision that happening at Del Mar, Robbins said, “I would have said no until I saw it happen. It is unsettling. We’re doing our best to sort of calm everybody down, because it affects a lot of people who are employed in our industry.” Harper said, “Our field sizes have been relatively good, even higher than Saratoga’s the last couple of years. We’re all feeling the drop in foal crops across the country. It started when everybody went broke in ’08 and all of a sudden there weren’t horses being bred for a couple of years, so you’re always kind of feeling that.” Robbins said he is encouraged by what appears to be a larger crop of 2-year-olds that could be ready to race in the near future. Del Mar started its “Ship & Win” program seven years ago to encourage owners to bring in horses from outside of California to race. It has been a success, Robbins said, and this summer the bonus has been raised by $500 to $1,500 when an out-of-state horse races for the first time. Those horses also get a 30-percent bonus on whatever they earn in their first start. Harper said he thinks the fact Del Mar is on the clock for the Breeders’ Cup will bring around more owners and trainers, and possibly, horses to race. “I think it’s becoming more than just a curiosity,” Harper said. “Nobody wants to show up at a place they’ve never been before, with a few million bucks worth of horses, and just toss them in there.” – Tod Leonard is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

BY TOD LEONARD Joe Harper, CEO and president of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, has one word for how ticket sales have gone for this year’s Breeders’ Cup: “wow.” Harper said the Del Mar Breeders’ Cup is expected to generate about $15.5 million in ticket sales, and he said that’s more than any other track in the event’s history. Del Mar will have significantly smaller attendance than most of the venues, with about 38,000 on hand for the races on Friday, Nov. 3, and Saturday, Nov. 4. More than 72,000 attended on the corresponding Saturday last year at Santa Anita. “The interesting thing about Del Mar and why it makes sense for the Breeders’ Cup is that we have a tremendous amount of high-end seating,” Harper said. “We have directors’ suites and skyboxes, and there are a lot of restaurants. Some tracks have one nice kitchen; we have six.” Harper also pointed to the number of

balconies facing the paddock side that were designed into the main grandstand when it was re-built in the early 1990s. “If that ticket is $500 at another track for Breeders’ Cup, it becomes a $700 ticket here,” Harper said. “With the ticket prices where they are, we can say we don’t want more than 38,000. People don’t want (the size of) an opening day crowd.” On the official ticket website as of Tuesday morning, July 18, race fans who want to attend Saturday were limited to buying a $450 two-day package that offers a reserved box seat for Friday and general admission for Saturday; or infield general admission for $50. There are several options for Friday: $375 for a stretch-run box seat, infield Pacific Pavilion seating ($100), clubhouse walk-around ($75), general admission on the clubhouse side ($50) and infield general admission ($35).

OPINION

Column: 'Secretariat-like' Arrogate roars from shadows, settles into Del Mar BY BRYCE MILLER When four-legged star Arrogate sauntered into the barns at Del Mar under the failing darkness Monday morning, it would have been easy to trot out the analogy of Michael Jordan moving into your exclusive condo for the summer. The horse, who ripped off an unprecedented 7-month run to become the richest winner in history, nudged revered trainer Bob Baffert to ask whether he’s the best the business has seen since standard-smashing Secretariat. Arrogate is no Jordan, though. Sure, Arrogate roared to the fastest time at the Travers in its 147 runnings … in his first stakes race. He chased down California Chrome — winner of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Dubai World Cup and Breeders’ Cup Classic — in the most recent Classic at Santa Anita. He confidently crushed the field in the $12 million Pegasus Cup, followed by a last-to-first stunner in Dubai. Jordan was known — a face and resume as ubiquitous as Nike’s swoosh. Arrogate is a superstar thrashing his sport in the shadows. He stirs awe in stables and straightaways, but lacks the mainstream exposure afforded Triple Crown darlings like American Pharoah. The undisputed No. 1 horse in the world is calling Del Mar his home, all summer long. In a sport dangling at the edge of America’s fringe, will anyone notice? “Well, he’s certainly Secretariat-like,” Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith said. “If he remains healthy and keeps doing what he’s doing, it would be a helluva argument.” Arrogate is greatness accelerated. The best in the sport build their cases over time and from the start. Spectacular Bid, Seattle Slew, Zenyatta, Affirmed and Citation all won their first races before gobbling stakes races like carrots. In April 2016, Arrogate finished third in a 6-furlong maiden race at Los Alamitos. Westbrook and Accelerate, the race’s 1-2, now sit

If the race had been 6½ furlongs, the hard-charging rookie would be unbeaten. “I was there,” Baffert said. “He just had a bad trip. Didn’t break. Every spot he was in was a tough spot. When he tried to get in, a hole would close. The last 100 yards, he was coming like a steam train. He just ran out of ground. We knew he was a good horse. “Hey, American Pharoah lost his first time out.” Baffert showed unusual patience with Arrogate, sidelining him from Triple Crown races as a 3-year-old. That slow, measured approach meant he failed to crash America’s consciousness — and TV lineups. That lined up Arrogate, however, to bank nearly $17.1 million and crush earnings records away from the spotlight. “He’s the best horse in the world that nobody knows about,” Baffert said. Hall of Fame jockey and NBC analyst Jerry Bailey said the route and rise feels unprecedented. “I don’t ever remember taking a horse that was completely off the radar and saying, if this horse does this and that, it will be 3-year-old of the year,” Bailey said. “People would laugh at you. But that’s exactly what

happened. “It’s insane what this horse has done.” Suddenly, the bounty of Arrogate’s dizzying climb benefits Del Mar, which Wednesday opened its annual summer meeting. Baffert plans to position his star for a Breeders’ Cup Classic defense this November at Del Mar. To limit travel, Arrogate is arriving in time to also run in the track’s San Diego Handicap on July 22 and season gem, the Pacific Classic, on Aug. 19. “We’re the case of being in the right place at the right time,” said Mac McBride, Del Mar’s director of media. “Horses are like strawberries. They can go south real fast. But he’s entered a whole new world. This tilts all perspective.” Questions swirled about whether Baffert would run Arrogate in all three Del Mar races. His thought: Why not? “If everything’s good, sure,” Baffert said. “Right now, I don’t see why I wouldn’t.” The target on Arrogate’s back will continue to grow, Bailey insisted. “So many times in this sport you have a horse that’s dominant, but he’s got a certain style,” he said. “If he’s a come-from-behind horse you can say, well, if we can get away with an easy lead with a quality horse

and set a fast pace, maybe he won’t catch us. “If he’s a front-runner, let’s put a rabbit out there (to push the pace) and soften him up and we can come from behind and beat him. Anybody plotting to beat this horse strategically, can’t possible have a plan. “This horse has no discernible weaknesses.” Even Jordan could appreciate that. The ‘Other’ Arrogate at Del Mar This isn’t the first time a star named Arrogate shook up the horse racing world at Del Mar. The late-1950s version of Arrogate, who won 20 of his labor-intensive 83 career starts, propelled jockey John Longden to racing history. The duo won the Del Mar Handicap on Sept. 3, 1956, to push Longden to a record 4,871 wins. In the background of a photo showing Longden addressing the Del Mar crowd, Desi Arnaz — the actor, musician and husband of Lucille Ball — looked on. Fourteen years later, also on Labor Day and at the same track, Bill Shoemaker broke Longden’s victories mark. The old Arrogate proved to be a big-money horse, too, winning the equivalent of $1.9 million in today’s dollars. – Bryce Miller is a San Diego Union-Tribune sports columnist

FROM OLSON, A11 played at our battle of the bands. This was at the turn of the 2000s; I was just a teenage kid heading down to Che Cafe at UCSD, where underground bands passing through San Diego would play — you would see Pinback play there when they were starting out. I was never old enough for Belly Up when I lived there. Same for Casbah. Playing the Casbah [on L.A. Takedown’s recent tour] was kind of kind of like a mini-dream come true, because that’s where all the cool bands would play that I could never go see. The cover art for the new album is a painting by your dad, of two fingers holding a white pill. The image resurfaces in one of your videos. What’s the story behind that? Olson: He painted it in 1975, before I was born. It just lived in our house forever. It was 4 feet by 4 feet, this huge painting that I never even questioned. It just always made sense. Then when I was thinking of album art, that popped into my head, and it was like ‘Oh yeah that’s beautiful.’ As far as I know that’s the only painting he has completed. Were your parents musical? What kind of stuff

FROM CLUB, A1 improvements are needed in the club and will implement them step by step in a professional, organized manner.” Addis, a third-generation PGA member, took over as general manager five months ago and oversaw an overall cleanup of the golf course, improving the look and feel around the greens. They also made upgrades to the snack bar and on-course restrooms. In addition, the club will also remodel the pool and fitness kitchen. On one of his visits, Kwan made an immediate decision to expand the club’s dining patio, taking advantage

was in their record collections? Olson: They always listened to music a lot. My mom played piano a bit, casually. I definitely grew up on Bob Dylan, The Beatles. Stop Making Sense [by The Talking Heads] was played quite a bit. And Graceland [by Paul Simon]. Those were the albums in heavy rotation growing up. And because of my mom I listened to a lot of Bonnie Raitt. My brother and I got those records, and I still collect records. The new album has a song called ‘Bad Night at Black’s Beach.’ Care to elaborate? Olson: I was in junior high and my brother was in high school and he was with some friends. This would’ve been just before everyone had cell phones. I was going to meet them down at Black’s Beach, so I was like ‘Oh yeah I’ll grab my Walkman and my backpack, I’ll walk down there on the beach,’ which is kind of far thinking back on it, from 15th Street to Black’s Beach. I finally got down there, exhausted, and there was no sign of my brother or his friends. I remember seeing a fire in the distance, so I walk towards it and as I get closer I can see that there is a guy standing there, he was just standing at the fire with his T-shirt on and nothing else, just fully Porky Pig-style and I

of wasted space. The expanded patio will bring seating for 40 and a fire pit, enclosed by glass panels to preserve the great views. “It really changes the dynamic of the dining experience for the members,” Addis said. All of the buildings underwent a fresh coat of paint and the latest completed renovation project was the grill and bar. “It wasn’t as exciting of a room before,” said Addis of the space that was remodeled and refreshed by Daley Custom Homes and LeDimora interior design. The room now offers a more “fresh and lively experience” with new

FROM CLASSROOMS, A1 windows,” Herman said. “I’m committed to making sure that as we move forward we come up with better solutions.” “Regardless of who gets put in this room, I want it to be the best room it can be,” Hergesheimer said. “If it’s space we’re going to be using, I want it to be the best it can be.” Tensions ran high among parents in the audience, who chanted “vote no” and shouted out their frustrations with the board, “doors and windows don’t increase space!” Muir said she thought an emergency meeting should have been called to make sure the issue was addressed and continued to advocate for a special board meeting the following week, a request echoed by Salazar and several community members via emails to the board. “I’m afraid if we vote yes, nothing will be done for 20 years,” Muir said. “I’ve seen portables last forever on school campuses.” 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

was just like ‘What am I doing, where is this night taking me?’ It was this ongoing trek across the sand for hours finding weird things. When I made the song I was trying to conjure the feeling of endlessly walking dunes or sand and then I remembered that night, that’s totally what that was. It’s also a reference to an old western called Bad Day at Black Rock, and it’s also a reference to a Byrd’s song that I like called Bad Night at the Whiskey. I’m a big fan of The Byrds. Chris Hillman, their bassist, went to San Dieguito. Not a lot of people know that. Your music has this if-Kraftwerk-grew-up-on-the-Pacific-Ocean thing going on. Is that what you’re going for? Olson: I don’t think I had that in mind but I think that’s accurate. I’m flattered by that description. That is what it is. I can’t help it, I’m definitely a California person and I’ve always lived on the Pacific Ocean and growing up in Del Mar was a huge part of that. I never surfed or anything but my friends and I would go skateboarding around Del Mar all the time. The parking lot down at 15th Street beach, there was a bump off the sidewalk we used to skate a lot. Del Mar folk did not generally take kindly to us skateboarding around. We used to skate

flooring, lighting and stylish and cozy seating, such as a banquette along one wall. The room now opens up to bring in the outdoors and there are now seven TVs inside and one outside to catch up on PGA action rather than just three. Local realtors listened attentively as Mahoney explained how The Crosby has re-launched its membership and has added several membership categories. They have a corporate membership that allows people from Los Angeles or the desert (those with primary residences 100 miles from the club) to be members and a new junior executive membership for people ages

could be approximately 62 adults in the two portables with only two bathrooms. Parent Lucile Lynch said after a recent tour of the new Earl Warren campus last week, many parents of ATP students left in tears after seeing the “expansive” middle school classrooms with high ceilings, multiple white boards and LED light “chandeliers” compared to the small portables with florescent lighting, one white board and little natural light. One parent said it smelled badly in the portables and another said it was unbearably hot inside. “I feel the district is not hearing or sharing our message right. It’s not about windows, it’s not about portables, it’s about equality plain and simple. Equality in design, equality in programming, equality in your investment,” said parent Joanne Stress. “Someone made a choice not to provide equal housing…This is the most environmentally-sensitive population and yet they were given the least design consideration of anyone on campus.” Whether the board added windows or not, Lynch said there is still the issue of whether or not there’s enough capacity for the students to even be in them. “Our population was put in portables, we were not part of Prop AA master planning or funding,” Lynch said of special education in general. “We don’t have the space to teach all of these kids at the same time in this facility... and accommodate future needs.” Salazar said as a board they did not pick to put the ATP facilities on the middle school

this ledge at L’Auberge and we’d always get in trouble for that. I used to skateboard a lot at the Vons next to where my mom lived. There used to be a video rental store called Video Vault. They had a nice ledge there, by the Jack in the Box. I went to my share of summer concerts at Powerhouse Park. I saw James Brown at the Del Mar Fair. It was right before he died, so getting to see him, that was super rad. And I saw The Flaming Lips there. The Del Mar Fair was surprisingly cool, especially for the fair circuit, they would get really cool bands. It wasn’t like they would have Peter Cetera or something. Actually, they did have him this year. Oh really?! [laughs] I would be stoked to see Peter Cetera now but in high school I would have been like ‘Laaame.’ Right, there’s not exactly anger in your music. I’m not really setting out to make angst-y music. I’ve enjoyed my share of that, but the closest thing now is that sometimes our songs have some metal elements in it. Growing up with the ocean right there, it was kind of paradise. I definitely loved growing up in Del Mar. It was just so pleasant and chill. It afforded me a little Zen to find my creative self.

25 to 46 to purchase a membership on a scale. For those who live within the gates or within five to 10 miles from The Crosby, there is a sports membership that allows access to the pool, the fitness center, eight rounds of golf a year and access to the driving range. There is also a social membership for residents of The Crosby and Lakes that provides access to all dining and social functions. “The Crosby has really turned itself to a family club,” Mahoney said, noting they offer movie nights, activities for kids during events that cater to adults, a junior golf program and tennis lessons. “We’re trying to

campus. “These are not acceptable buildings at all. Whoever picked these really let you all down and did a very, very poor job. If we had to go portable, which I don’t know why we had to, there are many high quality portable classrooms,” Salazar said. “This is something you’d see at a construction site.” Salazar suggested options such as moving ATP into the auditorium or suggesting an Earl Warren class goes into the portables and ATP gets a brand new classroom on campus. “If this board votes no then we will finally send a real message to the administrators here and say stop being administrators and bureaucrats and fix it now,” Salazar said. “It is a horrible message to say we approve this. “These are the people we work for, we don’t work for the administrators. We’re working for these children. And it just annoys me so much that we have to go along to get along. Let’s make a stand right now that we support special education,” Salazar said. Herman said she understood the parents’ frustrations and said the district has been working on many of the issues that have been brought before the board — the portables were part of the complaints in a petition submitted by special education parents to the board in June that alleged unequal treatment and facilities. Sitting in for Superintendent Eric Dill, who had fallen ill before the meeting, Assistant Superintendent Michael Grove said they have the challenge of working on a very tight

make it a more of a family environment.” To celebrate summer and some of the new changes, the club is hosting a member appreciation event on Friday, July 28 from 5:30-10 p.m. In the “new Crosby days,” residents appear to be pleased with the changes. “I’ve been a member of the club for 10 years so I’ve seen the good, the bad and the ugly,” said Craig Bernard, a member of The Crosby Estate’s Master Association Board of Directors. “I can tell you this — the board is extremely happy and has an excellent working relationship with Bando.” To learn more, visit TheCrosbyClub.com

timeline to get the facility ready before school begins in August. Grove said the district recognizes that there needs to be ongoing conversations, both about the short-term capacity needs for ATP and the best options for long-term solutions. Grove said they are listening to the feedback and determining what they can do in the immediate term given that the facility has to open in a month. “I think all of us believe that our best option likely is to try and work with Mira Costa to try and get the program hosted there, but that is not going to happen in the next month,” Grove said. “We need to engage our families, have discussions around what are the short-term needs and what can we do now and what are the long-term needs and how do we get there.” Meredith Wadley, the new director of school and student services, said she has found an available classroom in a satellite Mira Costa Community College facility that ATP might be able to utilize. She said she is committed to finding a solution and engaging parents — she was expected to set up a site visit at the Mira Costa facility in the coming week to see if it might be suitable for the program. In her efforts to find a positive solution, Lynch contacted Mira Costa on her own and has a visitation scheduled on July 24. The board is holding a special education workshop prior to next month’s board meeting.

FROM UNIVERSITY PIONEERS, A5 first people to see that importance and she was one of the few presidents who worked closely with legislators at the state and federal level. Hughes: I was told that it was going to be the most conservative part of the state. They also told me that the people in the Central Valley would not support the university and that there was not enough money in the area. Well, I did my research and guess what, we had more millionaires in the Valley than almost anywhere else. My predecessors did not understand how to do their research and how to understand the wealth of the community. They thought they were in the poorest area of California when, in fact, they were in one of the richest. Those people just had to be cultivated. DMT: As the leaders of large academic institutions, do you feel that the lessons remain the same, or is the political and cultural environment different now? Hughes: We really have some challenges politically. In the present federal administration, there’s a lot of fear about the status of equity and whether or not we are regressing or progressing. I think many forward-thinking universities are concerned that we may be regressing

because politically we can’t move forward, either nationally or internationally, as we did when we had the momentum going. Junn: When I was announced as president last year, I did worry. Asians make up the largest minority of university teachers, but the number that make it into administration is vanishingly small. There are fewer than 10 female Asian presidents at a four-year college in all of the United States. But I’m happy to say that the people at Stanislaus have been very genuine and sincere. Everyone has been so warm and welcoming. Hughes: It was easier for me to diversify that campus than any other campus for some reason. I didn’t go in with any expectations. And I was in an interracial marriage, but the community decided that we were the ideal couple. They really embraced us. Still, I had to really, really struggle just to get the student body up 25 percent Latina, which was more representative of the community. Junn: We’ve doubled it, now it’s 50 percent. DMT: You must have taken a tremendous amount of pride in being able to push things forward, Dr. Hughes, and yet, despite those successes, the disparities in race and gender are still… Hughes: Entrenched. Deeply entrenched. The American political system grinds slowly, in geologic time, and does not transform itself unless some inward force is really pushing. I think that’s probably why I fell in love with the women’s studies program at San Diego State. They surrounded themselves with a multidisciplinary academic approach and grounded that in research and

She then wraps herself in a blanket and makes herself at home by the fireplace in the living room-like library which bears her name. “I was so honored when they named the room after me!” she said. “I always look forward to giving readings in that room.

For a lot of families, it’s a struggle to raise children, and for us, there were also challenging moments, but I feel really good because we’ve raised, together with the ex-spouses, three really happy, strong, successful (individuals). It takes a village to raise children who will do well for our future.”

What does your religion mean to you?

“It gives me a place to go — not only for community and social reasons — but also for my own personal journey. We all have challenging moments in our life, and nobody is immune to difficult times and tragedies, but I found that through my relationship with my community and my spiritual journey, I’m able to find strength and hope in difficult times.”

literature. But we have not experienced that kind of multiplicity and growth in the Central Valley. Junn: Well let me ask you, Marvalene, when you became president were there challenges that you faced as an African American woman? Hughes: Yes, but I was prepared. I learned a lot from San Diego State. I learned a lot from the University of Minnesota. I’m almost more worried about how things are now. There was a time when there was a vibrancy in political movement and I don’t see that anymore. That really concerns me. That means that we, as university presidents, must get involved. If we treat ourselves as a silo in the United States, where everyone ought to emulate us, then we have lost the future. Because the future is in internationalism, and the future is in being able to compete here and make your identity known as a CSU leader. DMT: Can you talk yet about the ceremony in honor of Dr. Hughes? Junn: We haven’t settled on a date yet, but it’ll be later this year. We’re going to have 600 people help us commemorate naming it (the reflecting pond) in Marvalene’s honor. There are a lot of wonderful memories people have about Marvalene and they haven’t seen her in a while so they’ll be very happy to see her. In my 31 years in the CSU system, I have visited every campus except for Humboldt and in my mind Stanislaus has always been the most beautiful in terms of the exterior and landscaping. We have six water features and lakes, more than 2,800 trees and 95 different species of wildlife.

that warmth when I’m telling dark stories.” Blaedel also suggests driving all the way up north to Skagen, an artist’s paradise where the sun shines for more hours a day than anywhere in the country. “It’s a five-hour drive from Copenhagen, and that is almost what it takes to cross all of Denmark,” she said. “But it’s definitely worth it. “And,” she adds, “if you have time, drive to Jylland. There are so many wonderful places to see like Aarhus and the west coast. Oh, and sail to Bornholm, a small island located between Denmark and Sweden. It’s totally different from the rest of the country, and it’s a must-see.” Although Blaedel still returns to

her summer house frequently, she now lives in New York City. Her first book set in the United States, “The Undertaker’s Daughter,” takes place in Racine, Wisconsin, which has a large population of Danish immigrants. “I am always interested in seeing America through a Danish woman’s eyes,” said Blaedel, who won The Golden Laurel, Denmark’s most prestigious literary prize. “I’ve been on several book tours across the country and I like to imagine what it would feel like for me to settle in different cities.” Maybe San Diego will be next.

What were those difficult times?

which debilitated me. I ended up getting 50-60 percent improvement in 48 hours on a gluten-free diet! So I said to myself, ‘why?’ I dived into Dr. David Perlmutter’s (book) ‘Grain Brain.’ I read it cover to cover, and it just blew my mind. Basically, the book says a lot of our illnesses come from what we’re eating and our lifestyle. I went back to my neurologist, and asked, ‘Is this hype or true?’ And he said, ‘It would scare you very much, but it’s all true.’ I did more research and discovered I needed to get further nutritional and genomic testing to find out what I was missing in my diet that was preventing me from fully healing my brain and preventing other diseases. So I had a full evaluation done in the last couple of months, and now I am gluten-free, dairy-free, alcohol-free and sugar-free. All those things are very inflammatory, and research has shown increased inflammation in the body can affect my (brain’s) recovery. The hardest thing for me to give up has been dairy, because I love cheese, and milk in my coffee.”

“I’ve had a couple of medical situations. I’m a (breast) cancer survivor and I was in a car accident. I was sitting in the passenger seat and was hit from behind by someone who wasn’t paying attention and I ended up with a concussion that was not healing. So through my medical experience and connections, I’ve searched for ways to get better, never let my cancer come back, and got myself able to think again, to do electronics again, which I couldn’t because of my concussion. It’s been two years since my accident ... they said it would be a five-year recovery. I’m maybe 98 percent better.”

How did you recover so quickly?

“In addition to traditional medicine, doing whatever they told me to do — physical therapy, balance therapy and vision therapy. I had a neurologist who’s well-versed in holistic medicine. He recommended I go on a gluten-free diet to get better from the concussion,

Hidden treasure

Local resident Henry Herz building side career as children’s book author BY KAREN BILLING Carmel Valley children’s book author Henry Herz will launch his fifth traditionally published book, “Cap’n Rex and his Clever Crew” this summer. The fantasy picture book’s official release date is Aug. 1—“Cap’n Rex” can be pre-ordered on Amazon.com and once it sets sail it can be found at barnesandnoble.com as well as in independent bookstores. Following “Cap’n Rex,” published by Sterling Publishing, Herz will have three children’s books released in 2018. Pelican Publishing will print “How the Squid got Two Long Arms”; Schiffer Publishers will release “Good Egg and Bad Apple,” a wordplay book all about food-based puns and idioms; and Familius Publishing will print “Alice’s Magic Garden,” a prequel to

“Alice in Wonderland.” Herz is a children’s book author thanks to a “mid-life epiphany”— by trade he is a process improvement engineer. He first got into writing children’s books in 2011 when he self-published the fantasy book “Nimpentoad,” which he wrote with his young sons, Josh and Harrison. “I wrote the first book as way to get my kids into reading fantasy, my favorite genre,” Herz said. “It ended up turning into more.” After he self-published the first book, he was bit by the writing bug and they self-published three more books together. Going out on his own, he found publishers for his next four books — Pelican Publishing put out “Little Red Cuttlefish,” “When you Give an Imp a Penny” and “Monster Goose Nursery Rhymes.” “Mabel and the Queen of

Dreams” was published by Schiffer Publishers. “They’re teenagers now and I’m off and running doing it on my own,” Herz said. “It’s an unpredictable career. I hope to keep honing my craft and be the best writer I can be and keep putting out great work. I like my day job and luckily, I can do both.” Typically authors submit ideas to publishers and then wait for a response — to Sterling, Herz had originally submitted a rhyming picture book about a yeti and some spaghetti. Sterling responded that they really liked the story but had done too many monster books lately. Herz saw an opportunity to pitch his tale about Cap’n Rex, a pirate dinosaur. Herz liked dinosaurs and he liked pirates — he thought putting them together made for the ultimate combination, like peanut butter and chocolate. Sterling agreed and acquired the story. “I snatched victory out of the jaws of defeat,” Herz said. In the book, Rex commands a four-dinosaur crew looking for treasure. The crew hits many obstacles on their journey, from pea soup fog or giant sharks. Whenever they come across an obstacle, the crew always thinks can’t do it. Cap’n Rex always responds, “Can’t ye?”

With a “big, sharp-teeth smile,” he helps his crew come up with a clever way to solve their problem. “It encourages creativity and perseverance in young readers,” Herz said. “When you encounter obstacles, sometimes you see difficulties, but there’s almost always a way around it.” Herz said he is getting used to the book publishing business and learning to be patient with a process that can be lengthy. Once a story is acquired, the publisher has to find an illustrator, go through the process of illustrating and editing and building a marketing plan. It can sometimes be a two-year process, but Herz said it is always worth the wait. “There is nothing like the feeling of something that you’ve written and worked on for hundreds of hours show up in a hard-bound book,” Herz said. “It’s a great feeling.” Herz has two local book readings and signings scheduled for the coming months. On Saturday, Aug. 19, he will be at Barnes & Noble in Mira Mesa at 11 a.m. and on Sunday, Sept. 10 he will be at Mysterious Galaxy Bookstore at 3:30 p.m. To learn more about “Cap’n Rex,” visit henryherz.com

RANCHO SANTA FE REVIEW - JULY 20, 2017 - PAGE B3

AARON RUMLEY

Katie MacNichol, Sierra Jolene, Paul Turbiak, Bruce Turk and Kyle Colerider-Krugh star in Nagle Jackson’s ‘At This Evening’s Performance,’ at North Coast Repertory Theatre through Aug. 6.

Excellent execution of ‘At This Evening’s Performance’ LET’S REVIEW BY DIANA SAENGER Watching a play within a play can be complicated, but that’s not the case with Nagle Jackson’s “At This Evening’s Performance,” directed by Andrew Barnicle and onstage at the North Coast Repertory Theatre until Aug. 6. When the fun begins in this comedy, a lively cast of seven actors are traveling to Eastern Europe to a country now called Strevia, pronounced by the actors with a spfff. Within set designer Marty Burnett’s two dressing rooms, the actors discuss their new play “At This Evening’s Performance,” talk about themselves and complain about things. The first is that people are not responsive enough to their old classic works being redone, and two, the Minister of Culture in Strevia, formerly named Dunsk, a certain Pankoff (John Nutten). Actor Oskar (Kyle Colerider-Krugh) is the elder cast member who makes comments often filled with humor. Piers (Paul Turbiak) is a young man who has two agendas — one

to romance Saskia (Sierra Jolene) and the other to heap suggestion after suggestion upon his colleagues, who mostly ignore him. Saskia is a lively actress who enjoys risqué moments with Piers and has no fear her husband will find out. Hippolyta Posnik (Katie Macnichol) has a lighthearted role and is also married to Gunther (Bruce Turk), an actor throwing out orders by the minute to the cast that most of them oppose. Returning after many roles at the NCRT is Richard Baird, a terrific actor who excels in every character he portrays. As Valdez, he has authority to warn the actors there is a spy among the cast and someone will get shot! This ups the anxiety and humor. Can the Minister of Culture overcome this horrific announcement? Barnicle does a great job of directing a play that requires just the right simultaneous dialogue and actions to remain an enjoyable farce. Anyone who enjoys the genre — which NCRT does very well — will relish the humor and perfection in the cast’s unveiling. ■ IF YOU GO: “At This Evening’s Performance,” is on stage through Aug. 6 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets from $43. (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org

San Diego-based Tribal Seeds to kick off Del Mar Racetrack concert series

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY ROB LEDONNE The renowned Del Mar Racetrack concert series has featured the likes of musical legends from Jack Johnson to Weezer. Come July 21, Tribal Seeds joins that esteemed list to kick of the track’s 2017 season. “I’m stoked Tribal Seeds is a part of the series,” said the band’s co-founder and keyboard player Tony-Ray Jacobo, who’s visited the series before - as a spectator. “I’ve personally been a couple of times to see Ziggy Marley and The Offspring.” The Seeds’ plum kickoff performance slot is just the latest coup for the San Diego-based band who released its debut EP in 2005. Founded by Tony-Ray and his brother Steven Rene Jacobo, the band built a successful career based on a unique sound that combines both reggae and rock into one tidy musical package. Along the way, they’ve built an intense following thanks to a bevy of recordings (recent track “Rude Girl” is based on a mean dog, oddly enough) and a busy slate of tour stops, the resulting success of which can be traced back to a pivotal tropical excursion during their humble beginnings. “The first time we went to Hawaii as a band we gave some of our music to a radio station in Maui,” remembers Tony-Ray of the landmark moment in the band’s rise. “Soon after, people were requesting it and it got on rotation. That was big.” Just as important was the fact that established bands soon took a liking them, with acts ranging from Soja to Rebelution early champions. “Slightly Stoopid took us

COURTESY TRIBAL SEEDS

Tribal Seeds will perform at the Del Mar Racetrack’s Seaside Stage on Friday, July 21. on our first amphitheater tour which was huge,” says Tony-Ray of the fellow famed San Diego act. “They are the big hometown band and we got to open for them on big stages all around the country.” Since then, the members of Tribal Seed have gotten used to the hectic nature of life on the road. “I feel blessed and honored to be able to do this for a living,” said Steven

JOIN US FOR

Rene. “Not a lot of people get to make a living playing and making music. When times get hard out on the road, I just try to remember how blessed I am do be in the situation I’m in.” As of late, the Seeds have plenty to be blessed about, the most notable of which is being awarded Artist of the Year at the recent San Diego Music Awards. (“That

definitely was unexpected for me,” says Tony-Ray. “We were honored to be recognized by our city in that way.”) In addition, the group also has a new album on the horizon, slated for release in 2018. “I think this next album will be more roots (based),” reveals Steven. “At this point in my career, I’m not too concerned with trying to appeal to as many people as possible, I don’t like worrying about trying to get bigger. I just play what I like and I love roots music.” Playing what they love has worked so far as a strategy for the band, translating into chart success. The Tribal Seeds band enjoyed securing the number one slot one the Billboard reggae charts when its 2014 album, Representing, was released – a coup made all the more impressive considering the band is proudly independent, building a monster fan base without the help of a major label machine behind them. “We’ve been independent since day one,” said Steven. “It is definitely nice to have the freedom to make music how we want and when we want and not have the pressure of a label or corporation dictating what we do.” For now, they’re gearing up for their grand Del Mar Racetrack debut. Says Tony-Ray: “It’s a big event that the whole city looks forward to. Gonna be awesome to take that stage.” Tribal Seeds heads to the Del Mar Racetrack’s Seaside Stage on Friday, July 21, with their set tipping off following the last race of the day.

RANCHO SANTA FE REVIEW - JULY 20, 2017 - PAGE B5

Former stand-up comedian creates new laughs in first book BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY hen Robbie Pickard came across nearly 40 narratives he had written over the years, he didn't want to just flush the ideas down the toilet, so to speak. But the Encinitas-based former stand-up comedian didn't feel like turning them into jokes either. So, Pickard decided to take his humor skills into another venture: writing his first book. "Toilet Material: Very Short Stories for Very Short Attention Spans," which was released last month and supported by a Kickstarter fundraising campaign, includes the 38 short stories Pickard wrote over the years. Pickard, who began his comedy career working at the Irvine Improv in Orange County while studying journalism at UC Irvine, described the work as "if Saturday Night Live was a book." "I was looking at this backlog of standup ideas on my laptop, thinking these things could either die or I could try to do something else with them," said the 33-year-old former comedian who was a regular performer at Hollywood and Orange County clubs for eight years before moving away from the profession two years ago. He is now a senior copywriter in

COURTESY

Robbie Pickard delivers 350 copies of his book “Toilet Material” to people who supported him on Kickstarter. the advertising/marketing field. "After toying around with how to transfer these standups into short stories, it finally clicked." However, realizing the costs of publishing his own book, Pickard decided to leave his work's fate into the hands of fans. Luckily, they liked his idea, too, raising more than $11,000 in a 30-day online fundraiser on Kickstarter.com.

Pickard considers Kickstarter a "wonderful tool" for today's emerging artists. "There are so many avenues now to get things done, whatever you want to do," he said. "If you want it bad enough, there's always a way. Kickstarter was a great way to prove that there was an audience for this idea." Reviewers on Amazon.com, where the book is available for purchase, have praised "Toilet Material."

Pickard also received testimonials from former SNL cast members and other professional stand-up comedians. Former SNL performer Brooks Wheelan considered the book "such a fun, easy read. Like for children, except don't let children read this.” The stories, which include fiction and non-fiction, range from between one and five pages long. They are unrelated and can be read in any order. "Toilet Material’s" short length, at about 120 pages, is aimed at the common short attention spans people possess today, Pickard said. He added that the stories are ideal for quick reads in places like the bathroom, at an airport or at a doctor's office. "The whole idea of calling it 'Toilet Material' was trying to find some structure," he said. "It was kind of a way to play up the fact that people today are used to getting a lot of content really quickly and our attention spans are very short. I wanted to write the kind of book that got read by today's audience." Pickard, who is in the early stages of writing his second release, a comic novel, said he hopes his “Toilet Material” book offers readers an escape. "It's sort of the idea that this world is so busy and we're always surrounded by tasks. Being in the bathroom is sort of the quietest time people have now," he said. “I make the joke that it's really the only 'you' time that we have left."

Blackberry Smoke returns to the Belly Up BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY An Atlanta Southern Rock band will bring their country charms to a sold-out Solana Beach show on July 24. Blackberry Smoke, which is touring nationwide in support of its new album "Like An Arrow," will play at the Belly Up for the second time in the band's career. "It's a really cool venue," said lead vocalist and guitarist Charlie Starr. "Like An Arrow," the band's sixth album, debuted at No. 1 on both Billboard's Country Albums and Americana Albums charts, as well as No. 3 on Billboard's Rock Albums chart. Starr, who has been on the road with Blackberry Smoke for a little over a month for this tour, said the group typically plays year-round. There's nothing quite like

returning to the West Coast, though, he said. "We're always happy to see our fans on the West Coast," Starr said. "We don't get to play for them as often." Oftentimes, fans will go to multiple shows on a single tour, he said. For this reason, the band mixes up its set list each night, with a mix of new and old tunes. Starr said he is grateful the fans sing along to the new songs even though the tunes might not be as familiar to them. "We're lucky in that people come to multiple shows and follow us on tour," he said. "What they want to hear is a variety of music. They don't want to hear the same songs over and over again. That makes me happy." For more information about the show, visit www.bellyup.com/blackberry-smoke.

Bring lawn chairs and blankets to the free SummerFest concert and screening of ‘La La Land,’ Aug. 2 in Scripps Park.

‘La La Land’ to screen after SummerFest kick-off concert, Aug. 2 in Scripps Park BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON As the lyrics to “A Lovely Night” from the 2016 hit film “La La Land” goes, “The sun is nearly gone. The lights are turning on. A silver shine that stretches to the sea … We've stumbled on a view. That's tailor-made for two. What a shame those two are you and me.” (Those who have seen the film know the last line references a coy game of hard-to-get between Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling.) When the sun is nearly gone, at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 2, a silver screen will stretch to the sea at Scripps Park, when the La Jolla Music Society’s free SummerFest Outdoor Concert kicks off its 31st annual SummerFest chamber music series, which runs through Aug. 25 at venues such as UC San Diego Department of Music’s Conrad Prebys Concert Hall and Irwin M. Jacobs Qualcomm Hall. After the concert, “La La Land” will be shown on the screen in the park. The concert will be abridged to make time

for the film, but still feature a program of classics by expert and youth performers that will include Schubert’s “Quartettsatz” with the Ulysses Quartet: violinists Christina Bouey and Rhiannon Banerdt, violist Colin Brookes, and cellist Grace Ho; Botessini’s “Gran Duo Concertante” with Ulysses Quartet joined by violinist David Chan and bassist DaXun Zhang, bass; and Bach’s “Concerto for Two Violins in D Minor, BWV 1043” with the San Diego International Youth Symphony’s joined by violinists Cho-Liang Lin and Philip Marten. The San Diego Youth Symphony’s International Youth Symphony will also perform a to-be-determined selection of works under conductor Jeff Edmons. Immediately following the concert, “La La Land” will be shown, courtesy of The LOT movie theater. Ticket prices for SummerFest concerts vary based on event. Find the schedule brochure at ljms.org

Villa Musica inspires a musical community of all ages BY KAREN BILLING nside an unassuming building in Sorrento Valley, a community of students and teaching artists comes together to experience the joy of making music at Villa Musica. For the last 12 years founder and Artistic Director Dr. Fiona Chatwin has built the nonprofit community music center into a musical home for aspiring musicians of all ages. On any given day, the seven studios will be alive with the sounds of music, from Junior String Ensemble to family folk jams, private piano lessons to Glee Club. Beginner kids come toting instruments that dwarf them and adults who haven’t touched their guitars in 30 years come to get a tune-up. Villa Musica’s flagship group is its Community Chorus, merging the voices of about 40 singers, ages 25 to 80 “and everything in between.” For Chatwin, it all comes back to “community” – offering kids a “third space,” a creative outlet between home and school, giving a cello student the chance to engage with a trumpet player or creating a place to sing and play with extraordinary musicians who now live busy adult lives. Recently, they held their first Chamber Music Club where a group of mostly retired, semi-professional musicians came together and shared what they are working on. “It truly is a music community, taking musicians out of their living rooms playing by themselves and coming to share with others,” Chatwin said. Chatwin is a singer and voice teacher who has worked with artists of all ages and vocal disciplines and has developed college and university level curriculum for everything from music theory to opera. A native of Australia, she finished her doctorate of musical arts at UC San Diego in 2006. Before she graduated, she founded Villa Musica in November of 2005, at first looking to form a Community Chorus for all those people who really wanted to sing but perhaps had no place to do it. “I thought there was a bit of a gap in community arts education in San Diego,” Chatwin said. She became affiliated with the National Guild for Community Arts Education to learn about best practices and national standards for excellence and partnered with the San Francisco Community Music Center’s executive director, who mentored her as she started Villa Musica from scratch. “When we started we were kind of pioneers,” Chatwin said, noting there was only one community music education center in La Jolla at the time and that one was only for kids. She opened her doors in Sorrento Valley in 2010 after bouncing around from churches and recreation centers

Guitar students play around at Villa Musica. and other locations. Chatwin believes it was the perfect trajectory for her organization as she isn’t sure they could have survived the 2008 economic downturn — because they had so little overhead, they did. When she moved into their Sorrento Valley location Chatwin admits “it was kind of scary.” At the time, the organization had 17 private students — now they reach about 500 people through their various private lessons, group lessons, camps and ensembles. Villa Musica also has its own small recital hall and hosts free Friday night student recitals once a month. “By the time we put out the sign-up sheet it’s filled because we can only take 15 performers,” Chatwin said. While they hold a larger recital off-site, the monthly recitals are small and intimate and help students to build confidence in being on stage. “The more they do it, the less scary it is,” said Chatwin, who dreams of one day owning her own building with her own large recital venue. Chatwin still directs the Community Chorus and has a studio of four private voice students. “It’s my sanity time when I’m not working on budgets or grants,” Chatwin said. “My passion is working with young singers and making sure they’re on the right track.” As a result of strong community support, Chatwin believes one of the most important things Villa Musica does is the satellite music instruction

Villa Musica shares the love of music students of all ages. to underserved areas in San Diego. Villa Musica provides music education at Logan Heights Branch Library and Malcolm X/Valencia Park Library — providing all of the instruments and lessons to children and adult students for free. Through conversations with the patrons they offer what the community needs most — at Logan Heights they have three levels of violin, two levels of guitar and starting a rock band class in the fall.

At Valencia Park, they have violin and guitar classes as well as a chorus. At a time when arts programs are being slashed at schools across the country, Villa Musica also offers music education at 14 schools such as Our Lady of Guadalupe, King Chavez Elementary and the Ronald McDonald House School. “We’re bringing music into schools that would not have music otherwise,” Chatwin said. They work with school PTAs and

foundations to enhance what the district is able to offer or fill in what is lacking with after-school programming. A significant percentage of students at Villa Musica also receive financial aid. “Everything is needs-based, there are no scholarships based on merit,” Chatwin said. The stories she hears touch Chatwin’s heart — she never wants a student to have to stop music due to a parent’s job loss or other financial struggles. She recalls one story of a Syrian immigrant family whose daughter was a cello player. Her cello had been damaged and they had hoped Villa Musica could help with lessons. Villa Musica was able to provide a cello and lessons for the student. “It put normalcy back in her life,” Chatwin said. The student went on to play cello in the orchestra at UC Berkeley. “I love being able to provide support and to be able to offer access to quality music education and access to excellence,” Chatwin said. “Access is the most important part.” Villa Musica is offering a free Summer Concert Series to showcase its Summer Orchestra on Saturday, July 29 from 1-4 p.m. at the San Diego Central Library, 330 Park Boulevard. On Sept. 10, Villa Musica will hold an open house from 1-4 p.m. offering potential new students the opportunity to come try out an instrument with free 15-minute private lessons. To learn more, visit villamusica.org. Villa Musica is located at 10373 Roselle Street.

Chill Out

Summer desserts easy on your scale

e can have our cake and eat it, too, if we choose lighter desserts (less sugar and fat), and forego the traditional summer lollapaloozas — ice cream sundae extravaganzas, salted caramel brownies, and triple-decker cakes and trifles. While the concept of healthy desserts sounds oxymoronic, this can be accomplished with a serious behavioral commitment and creative culinary spirit. Here are some suggestions for concocting guiltless pleasures throughout the summer months and beyond.

Dangle a Carrot

Choose hearty, vitamin, mineral and fiber rich vegetables and vegetarian proteins as the cornerstone of a nutritious dessert. A variety of naturally sweet tubers, roots, squashes, legumes and beans including yams, purple and sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, celeriac (celery root), acorn squash, chickpeas, black beans and lentils can be pureed and blended with antioxidant-packed super dark chocolate (cocoa content over 60 percent), a drizzle of honey for less sweet

choices, and low fat coconut, almond or rice-based cream for a divine mousse. Even more divine with a splash of liqueur (a little dab won’t harm you). Amaretto and Frangelico for nutty nuances, Kahlua for an intense coffee flavor, Grand Marnier for citrus notes or Crème de Menthe for a refreshing zing of mint. Whip up a moist, sweet and spicy honey root cake with shredded carrots and parsnips, topped with a light and creamy mascarpone spread, bittersweet ruby red beet brownies, or an airy black bean and espresso or avocado chocolate soufflé.

Sew Some Wild Oats

Crusts, cobblers, cakes, cookies and biscotti will be nuttier, more nutrientpacked and flavorful when all-purpose flour is substituted for low-carb baking options from the nut family (almond, chestnut, pecan, cashew, pistachio and hazelnut flours), ancient and traditional grains (buckwheat, millet, teff, kamut, brown rice, spelt, sorghum and amaranth flours), seeds (quinoa, flax, sunflower and chia flours) along with coffee, banana,

Rich, fatty moo ice creams can be easily swapped out for lighter, lactose-free, non-dairy frozen treats without feeling a bit deprived. Soy, cashew, rice, coconut, hemp and almond-based creamy delights taste decadent by themselves, or dressed up with a sophisticated balsamic glazed strawberry or raspberry topping with a pinch of fresh basil, thyme or rosemary for a Mediterranean twist.

A Plum Idea

This season’s bounty of luscious, aromatic and nutrient-dense stone fruits from peaches, nectarines and apricots to plums, pluots and cherries take on a rich, caramelized essence when grilled, a sassy tartness when blended with Meyer lemon zest and stewed into a compote, or an elegant silkiness when pureed and strained into an eye-popping coulis to drizzle on frozen treats of all manners. Apricots and cherries pair well in a bubbling cobbler, peaches and nectarines are good grill mates drizzled with a blend of maple syrup, fresh ginger and Himalayan pink salt, then sprinkled with caramelized nuts (recipe below), or whip up a quick and dirty sorbet with frozen slices of assorted stone fruits. For a tropical treat, toss some fresh pineapple spears or bananas on the barbecue, and then dress with hazelnut chocolate sauce and scoops of vanilla bean coconut ice cream.

Grilled Maple Ginger Nectarines ■ Ingredients: 2 ripe but-firm-large nectarines, halved and pitted; 2 tablespoons of organic dark maple syrup; ¼ teaspoon of ginger powder or ½ inch piece of shredded fresh ginger; Pink Himalayan sea salt to taste; 2 tablespoons of roasted or caramelized hazelnuts, walnuts or pecans; 4 scoops of non-dairy frozen “ice cream” ■ Method: In a small mixing bowl, blend syrup with ginger and salt. Drizzle on nectarines. Brush grill with olive oil and cook nectarines on medium heat for about 8 minutes, or until caramelized and tender. Or bake on a cookie sheet at 425 degrees for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with nuts and serve warm with frozen treat. —kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Talking to Your Kids About Terrorism After the bombing at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, I was interviewed by a local news station regarding the psychological effects that the reporting of such terrorist activities has on kids. In the short time allotted on live TV, I didn’t say all that I wanted. A month since the bombing, terrorist acts continue. For the many parents and young people who still have questions, I want to get more in depth on a topic that unfortunately remains highly relevant. How might young people react to the Ariana Grande concert bombing? Concerts are very special events for young people, a place where they can let their guard down and really have fun in a relatively safe environment. An

actt of terrorism t ri suchh as this thi may destroy dest this sense of wellbeing and safety at concerts and other public events. Terrorism is a form of psychological trauma. What is psychological trauma? It an overwhelming event that exceeds one’s ability to cope. The world becomes random, uncertain, and unsafe. Such perceptions may lead to depression and anxiety, especially after repeated or long-term exposure to trauma. Children who have experienced another major stressor, such as a move to a new school or the loss of a family member, are more at risk, as are those who tend to be anxious or sensitive. What signs of psychological trauma should parents look for in their children? Signs of trauma in children of all ages are stomach and digestive distress, frequent sighing, sleeplessness, nightmares, nail biting, increased crying and irritability, and acting out. Social withdrawal and reduction in activities are also indicators. What should parents do to help their children and themselves deal with the threat of terrorism? Standard advice is that we should avoid watching the news and should focus on the fact that the

probability terrorist obabilit of being bei in i a te ist attack is i quite it low. lo I want to say something different. Routine and structure are important for all children, especially children who are very young. Spend more quality time reading, cuddling, and playing with them. Tell them where you are going and when you will be back. If you are going to be late, make sure you or the caregiver lets them know. Answer questions about terrorism with just the basics and emphasize to your child that she is safe. Reconnect with older children, especially teens, in the wake of a terrorist act. Most adolescents speak more to their friends and less to their parents. Talk to them in the car when driving them to school and their many activities. For independent, older teens, get one-on-one time with them by taking them out for coffee or dinner. Just being there provides them with a valuable sense of security. Although you may feel fear and anger about terrorism, instead express calmness, understanding, and kindness. Displays of high anxiety and aggression serve to increase the experience of trauma. Venting to your children and telling them to toughen up are rarely good ideas, as is telling them to ignore what is

going Affection, in on. Aff ctio llaughter, ghte and nd play la almost al st always lw are good ways to connect. On a practical level, because terrorism can happen anywhere, have a family emergency plan. Hopefully, and in all likelihood, you will never have to use it. But having a plan may help to provide a sense of safety when attending a big event or while traveling. Empower your children and yourself to take power away from terrorists. Maybe do this through activism, prayer, volunteering, writing letters to honor the deceased and survivors, or simply by enjoying your family time more. Remember that in times of terror, people rally and support one another.

AUTOMOTIVE GROUP

“

First time buying a car and I had such a great experience here. The staff is very prompt and professional. Shout out to Cory who worked with me on getting a brand new 2017 Toyota Prius. He was so helpful in every aspect, especially in the ﬁnancing. I left with the best car ever! I had a wonderful experience here as a ﬁrst time buyer. Thank you Mossy!
