RSF residents voice opinions on proposed health club and pool facility BY KAREN BILLING About 100 Rancho Santa Fe residents showed up on Friday, Oct. 17, for a health club and pool community meeting, the last outreach before ballots were mailed on Monday, Oct. 20. On the ballots, members are being asked whether the Rancho Santa Fe Association should spend $350,000 on a professional planning phase

for the potential new community amenity. RSF Association Director Heather Slosar said the pool and health club could increase home values and make the Covenant more attractive to younger families, as well as serve as a lifestyle enhancement for existing Covenant members. Based on a quick poll of those at the Oct. 17 meet-

ing, Slosar said about 70 percent said they would vote for the facility, while 10 percent said “no” and 20 percent were unsure. Some concerns expressed by those in opposition were the initial costs and the continuing costs to operate the facility, its location and the need. One member said she doesn’t believe that the lack

of the pool and fitness center is truly driving Covenant values down and that she doesn’t see a need to be like communities such as The Bridges and Santaluz. “It seems like everyone is doing the same thing. What makes the Covenant different?” she said. “There’s a vibe at Santaluz and The Bridges, a certain chaos. When I come back, I enjoy

the quietness here; this is the lifestyle we’re looking for.” Other members pointed out that the community needs to keep up with the times. “I don’t want the Covenant to be a bunch of ramps for old people, and I’m an old person,” said one memSee FACILITY, page 30

Candidates seek election to three special district boards BY JOE TASH Seats on the boards of directors of three special districts that provide such services as water, fire protection, sewage treatment and landscape maintenance are on the ballot in the Nov. 4 election. The three special districts are the Santa Fe Irrigation District, the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District and the Rancho Santa Fe Community Services District. This fall, three seats came up for election for the Santa Fe Irrigation District, which provides water service to residents of Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and part of Fairbanks Ranch. Two of the seats were uncontested. Board

president Michael Hogan and former water board member Augustus Daddi will serve four year terms. Two candidates qualified for the ballot for the Div. 3 seat, which represents Rancho Santa Fe — incumbent John Ingalls and challenger Marlene King. However, Ingalls resigned from the board in September and endorsed King, saying he did not want to be re-elected. King is president of the Fairbanks Ranch Homeowners Association and a retired teacher and school administrator. While Ingalls has said he doesn’t intend to accept another term on the Santa Fe board, his name remains on the ballot, and King must receive the most votes in order to

be elected. Among the issues that motivated King to run, she said, was talk about a possible merger with the Olivenhain Municipal Water District or another neighboring agency. Over the past couple of years, some members of the Santa Fe board, including Ingalls, have expressed interest in a possible merger as a way of saving overhead costs. Others, however, including King, have questioned such a move, noting that Santa Fe owns rights to water in Lake Hodges, which other districts such as Olivenhain don’t possess. Another reason she would be against a merger, said King, is that Olivenhain’s rates are higher than Santa Fe’s. Currently, Fairbanks Ranch is See ELECTION, page 30

RSF Association Board Biz: It’s fire season: Be prepared SDUHSD continues to look at bell BY ANN BOON, PRESIDENT, RANCHO SANTA FE ASSOCIATION BOARD The Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District (RSFFPD) was officially formed in 1946, in the aftermath of a devastating fire that took place in 1943 and destroyed brush, farmland and homes from Rancho Bernardo through Rancho Santa Fe, all the way to Solana Beach and Del Mar. Today the Fire District spans 38 square miles and protects nearly 30,000 residents. With the continued drought in California, the RSFFPD staff has advised us that fire season is almost year-round now. But with many major fires in recent years occurring in September and October, we tend to think about fires more this time of year. The RSFFPD has prepared some excellent materials that are available on their website (www.rsf-fire. org). You may find these very helpful: • “Fire Season 2014” ad-

dresses topics such as defensible space, making an evacuation plan, and tips for actual evacuation. • Under the “Vegetation Management” section of the website are several items of interest. The “Plant and Landscape Guide” provides information pertaining to both desirable and undesirable trees, shrubs, ground covers, and other types of plants, and recommended planting distances from structures. It also details the types of palm trees that have combustible fibrous tissue, leaf bases, and those that form a skirt of brown thatch, which should removed annually. Poorly maintained palm trees are extremely hazardous. Additionally, both our signature eucalyptus trees as well as the conifer species are extremely flammable

Ann Boon and require attention if they are dropping leaves or branches, or are planted too close to a structure. Obviously, any dead or dying trees should be removed promptly. Landscape cuttings are not permitted to pile up and must be removed as well. • The “Wildfire Preparedness and Evacuation” section gives guidance on how to prepare for wildfire and evacuation. The brochure titled “Getting out Alive” (available in hard copy or on the website) has a list of supplies that are useful to have on hand not only for fires but also in

the event of earthquakes or floods. “Making Your Home Wildfire Ready” is also helpful. In addition to the extensive resources on the RSFFPD’s website, you can download the “Ready San Diego” app to your phone or other mobile devices. This app can provide alerts and updates while you are on the go. Finally, be sure that you have registered your cellphone and/or email for the reverse-911 alerts that are provided by the County of San Diego. Listed and unlisted land-line numbers do not need to be registered, since they are already included in the county’s database. You can do this at www.readysandiego.org. Many thanks to RSF Association board member Rochelle Putnam for preparing this article.

schedules, flexible start times

BY KAREN BILLING Bell schedules and start times will be one of the main areas of focus for the 2014-15 school year in the San Dieguito Union High School District, said an official at the Oct. 16 board meeting. Jason Viloria, executive director of educational services, said the district is evaluating what works best for students and schools and each school site will continue discussions with staff, parents and kids throughout the year. The district has listed priorities such as having enough teacher collaboration and planning time, making sure access to electives are not limited because of schedules and having intervention and enrichment time available for students. As an example, Carmel Valley Middle School has PAW (Productive Academic Work) time and HIRE (Homework Intervention Reteach Enrichment) time dedicated to give students extra help. Some campuses already have flexible start times, allowing students to arrive earlier or later depending on their needs. At Diegueno Middle School and Carmel Valley Middle School, about 400 students at each school opt to come at 7:30 a.m. and the rest come at 8:30 a.m. The bell schedule conversation ties into the work of the district’s recently formed High School Enrollment Study Group, as Superintendent Rick Schmitt said that bell schedules are always the top reason why high schoolers pick one school over another. Schmitt said the district has a hard deadline of January if it decides to do anything regarding changing bell schedules at its four comprehensive high schools. The enrollment group had 104 parent applicants and 15 were selected to serve on the committee, according to Assistant Superintendent Michael Grove. They tried to balance members by ZIP code, made sure each school was represented and have a mix of parents with elementary-school-age children and some with students already enrolled in high See TIMES page 27

RSF couple lead way in helping those with thyroid disorders BY KAREN BILLING Few people may know that Graves’ disease is one of the most common autoimmune diseases afflicting Americans today. Fewer still may know that the only national nonprofit dedicated to its patients is headquartered in Rancho Santa Fe. The Graves’ Disease and Thyroid Foundation, cochaired by Rancho Santa Fe residents Kathleen Bell Flynn and Steve Flynn, has been located in their La Flecha office for the last three years. The Flynns have been involved in the foundation for the past 10 years, after Kathleen was diagnosed with the disease that attacks the thyroid gland. “Every donation counts,” Kathleen said, noting that they are careful in how their funds are distributed and fortunate that the organization is meeting all their needs — educating and supporting patients and their families — but they really need to do more to find the resources to help advance research. With Graves’ disease, the immune system attacks the body’s own cells and organs and can cause symptoms of hyperthyroidism such as fatigue, rapid and irregular heartbeat, anxiety and irritability, mood swings, and an enlarged thyroid that can interfere with normal breathing or swallowing. Graves’ can also occasionally affect the skin of the lower leg and the tissues around the eyes. Swelling of the soft tissues around the eyes can cause eyes to bulge and eyelids to retract. Well-known people with Graves’ include George Bush Sr. and Barbara Bush, actress Maggie Smith and Faith Ford and musicians Sia and Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott. There is no cure, but options for treatment include radiation, medication and “hope for remission,” or having the thyroid removed and taking hormone replacements. “It’s hard for people who don’t have it to understand,” said Steve. “It’s one of those invisible diseases that can cause a host of problems. The person doesn’t look sick, but they are.” The Graves’ Disease and Thyroid Foundation was founded in 1990, but the Flynns took over its administrative

The executive director is in Phoenix, but Rancho Santa Fe is in charge of the organization’s dayto-day functions. When Kathleen was diagnosed 10 years ago, right before she was to take her pilot’s license check ride, she didn’t know anything about Graves’. As part of her symptoms she had been very hyper, always feeling as though she had drunk a lot of coffee. “There was a honeymoon period when I was getting so much done,” Kathleen said of her high energy level. Kathleen was diagnosed with Graves’

after experiencing a “thyroid storm” in which her heart was racing, she was extremely weak and her metabolism had speeded up to a dangerous point. She tried to do research online about Graves’, but found little in the way of patient-centric organizations and information. “We saw that the GDATF needed a board, money and guidance, so we just got in there and got involved,” Kathleen said. Added Steve, “Anyone who has Graves’, we want to get them the help they need, and it shouldn’t be so hard to find.” With GDATF, they provide education

and support, producing an informative newsletter as well as coordinating conferences and seminars across the country. The conferences are perhaps their most important offering to patients, Steve said, as people have so many questions and there are not a lot of answers. “At the conferences, you really get validation from others and realize that you’re not nuts, you’ve just been going through a lot — and that really goes a long way,” Kathleen said. Steve said one Graves’ patient likened it having been in a dark room and the light finally came on. The message the Flynns want to send is a positive and uplifting one, taking a cue from Graves’ patient Michaela Cui, who started the Greater Than Graves’ movement. Cui has organized events such as a 3,000-mile bike ride from Alaska to San Francisco to raise funds and awareness. Recently the GDATF newsletter shared Cui’s skydiving adventure, which wouldn’t have been possible See GRAVES, page 27

RSF-based Freedom Frontline to host post-election discussion Nov. 13 at Del Mar Hilton • Group seeks to engage young people in politics, educate them on ‘constitutional responsibilities’ BY DIANE Y. WELCH Freedom Frontline, an organization whose mission is to educate its members and others about the political process, will hold an “Informative Evening” on Thursday, Nov. 13, at the Del Mar Hilton, after the election primaries. Genevieve Wood, a senior contributor for The Heritage Foundation, and Jason Cabel Roe, a Washington, D.C., veteran with more than 20 years’ campaign experience and knowledge of government policy, are speakers for the event. Both will analyze and give a recap of the election results and what may be expected politically in 2016. During the evening, members will have the opportunity to elect candidates to Freedom Frontline’s board. Freedom Frontline was born from Fairbanks Republican Women Federated, a local chapter of the National Federation of Republican Women. Ursula Kuster of Rancho Santa Fe, past president of FRWF, which recent-

ly closed its doors, agreed to head up Freedom Frontline. Its mission is “to educate, inspire and encourage participation in the political process.” The organization seeks to constitutionally correct solutions to the challenges facing the USA, according to its website. Vivian Hardage is serving as an adviser to Freedom Frontline, providing historical background from FRWF. She was active during its 20year run, when it amassed nearly 500 members and raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for political and charitable causes. From its inception, FRWF’s approach deviated from strict national guidelines, she said. It had a male auxiliary, a teenage arm, and was engaged philanthropically. “We were rabble- rousers,” joked Hardage. But it is these same elements that form the basis of the new organization. Former members of FRWF recognized that many younger potential voters seemed uninterested in politics in general, and that the Republican brand did not

Ursula Kuster foster their interest. They felt that a new centrist-conservative approach was needed to get new people involved, refreshing the organization with younger members who had different ideas. “So we regrouped and formed Freedom Frontline to include people who might call themselves independent, or libertarians, or may not even call themselves anything, because they are uninformed voters,” said Hardage. “We want to reach out to have a discussion, to introduce new members to others to see if there is a fit, to see if

they can be involved.” Kuster didn’t hesitate to lead the new organization. “We brainstormed for a new name and a presentation that represents the upholding of all of America, not just San Diego County,” said Kuster. “We will start at home first, but my vision is that on a national level, we can educate people of all ages about their constitutional responsibilities.” Originally from West Germany, Kuster immigrated to the U.S. in 1987, becoming a U.S. citizen. “It gave me a different perspective on the country, as I had to learn a lot about the function of government,” she explained. A businesswoman, Kuster owns and runs a skin care manufacturing company, CA Botana International. She volunteers with the Salvation Army, is a proponent for mentoring young adults and believes in being educated and involved. About government, Kuster said, “You can sit back and do nothing, or you can step in to make a difference.” Freedom Frontline will

form coalitions and has plans to reach into education and to work with the military and other political organizations. Its coalition with The Heritage Foundation is already in place. Philanthropy will continue to be a focus. And there will be a strong emphasis on mentoring young women and men to bring them into the field of politics, said Kuster.

Register online at www. freedomfrontline.com to attend Freedom Frontline’s “Informative Evening,” $45 for members, $50 for nonmembers, $20 for students. The event will start at 5:30 p.m. at the Del Mar Hilton, 15575 Jimmy Durante Blvd., Del Mar. Membership registration is also available online.

CCA places third in national math contest San Diego’s Canyon Crest Academy has some of the best high-school mathematicians in the country, as demonstrated by their third-place finish in the 2014 Fall Startup Event, a national mathematics contest administered by National Assessment & Testing. Coach Brian Shay prepared students for the first major competition of the academic year, in which students worked furiously for 30 minutes, racing to answer 100 problems in a variety of mathematical topics. According to Tom Clymer, director of the competition, “It’s similar to a musician practicing scales; many of these skills can become almost instinctual.” With so many questions and so little time, competitors must not only have strong mathematical skills, but also be able to quickly decide which problems to solve and which to skip. After results from students around the country were See MATH, page 20

‘The more we talk about this, the less shame there will be’ • Actor Joe Pantoliano shares experiences with mental illness, addiction at Bipolar Foundation luncheon: ‘We all have our stories to tell’ BY ASHLEY MACKIN Joe Pantoliano, the actor known for his roles in “Risky Business,” “The Sopranos,” “The Fugitive,” “The Matrix” and “Memento,” spoke Oct. 8 in La Jolla at the International Bipolar Foundation luncheon to address the importance of open and non-judgmental dialogue when discussing mental illness. In 2006, Pantoliano produced and starred in “Canvas” with Marcia Gay Harden, the story of a family affected by mental illness, based on a true story. Inspired by that role, he founded “No Kidding, Me Too,” a nonprofit dedicated to removing shame or embarrassment when talking about mental illness, and directed a documentary of the same name.

Actor Joe Pantoliano discussed his struggles with mental health and addiction at an International Bipolar Foundation luncheon on Oct. 8. By sharing his personal struggle with lifelong depression and addiction, he said he hopes to encourage others to do the same. “Living in secrecy and shame from the discrimina-

tion that shrouds (mental illness) has got to end,” he said. “I don’t know why there is so much shame in having what a lot of people have. I just don’t get it.” Pantoliano explained that although his career was going strong, there was “an emptiness” inside him and a pain he didn’t want to feel. So he turned to drugs and alcohol, at one time taking 25 Vicodin a day. “Mental disease and addiction go hand in hand, and in my case, my addictions were born out of my emotional disease and emotional unbalance,” he said. “For me, drugs and alcohol were painkillers. What I was doing was trying to avoid a pain inside of me, and I was looking for a way out.” Pantoliano talked openly and candidly about his experiences, including his

We all have our stories to tell, and when we share our stories, we feel less alone.”

Pantoliano had the opportunity to share his story through 12-step recovery programs, where, he said, “people know what it’s like to be you and be in your head.” Now sober, he said he believes in the power of recovery programs and “finding your tribe,” but also believes in preventing the sense of stigma in children. “People see it as a re-

RSFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Morris Cerullo announces 11-day journey to Africa Amid what has been called one of the deadliest outbreaks of disease in history, RSF resident Morris Cerullo, president of World Evangelism, is embarking this month upon a courageous 11-day trip to the heart of the Ebola outbreak â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the continent of Africa. This 83-year-old Christian statesman and international evangelist has been traveling to the undeveloped nations of Morris Cerullo the world for 68 years. He has dedicated his life to helping hurting people. This 11-day trip to Africa will include training meetings in: Accra, Ghana; Abidjan, Ivory Coast; Lagos, Nigeria; Kigali, Rwanda; Bujumbura, Burundi; Nakuru, Kenya; and Juba, South Sudan. The Sudan Ebola virus is recognized by the World Health Organization as one of three identified species that have been associated with large outbreaks in Africa. During this trip, the tireless octogenarian will also be meeting with political leaders of these nations to discuss economic aid, food, and medicine for the countries hit hardest by this outbreak. Over the past six decades, Morris Cerullo has met with numerous heads of state who have requested prayer, spiritual counsel, and mentorship. Known for his â&#x20AC;&#x153;hands-onâ&#x20AC;? approach to ministry, and aware of the dangers facing him by traveling to ground zero of the Ebola outbreak, Cerullo stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;These people need to know that we love them.â&#x20AC;? World Evangelism is known for its humanitarian support and has provided aid to Ethiopia, medical assistance in East Africa, and helped build multiple orphanages in Mexico. Most recently, Morris and Theresa Cerullo partnered with Tommy and Matthew Barnett to build a new floor of the Los Angeles Dream Center that houses 200 women who have come off the streets of Los Angeles, out of drugs, human trafficking, and prostitution. The floor is called Mama Theresaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Place in honor of Theresa Cerullo. On July 28, Morris and Theresa celebrated 63 years of marriage. Moving to San Diego in 1959, their ministry, World Evangelism, was incorporated in 1961. Today, the San Diego headquarters employs 100 people locally, and also has offices in Texas, Canada, the United Kingdom, Holland, and Paris. For decades, Morris Cerullo has conducted major conferences and training seminars in San Diego, bringing tens of thousands of people to the city from more than 50 nations.

Bluebird Boutique’s artisan goods help bring clean water to Guatemala BY KAREN BILLING On Oct. 17-18, the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center was transformed into the Bluebird Boutique, a charming collection of handmade items made by local women. All of the boutique’s proceeds went to support the Maya Relief Foundation, which helps families in Guatemala become self-sufficient by providing eco-friendly stoves and highly effective water filters. For over a year, nearly 100 women met weekly to make the beautiful artisan goods that were sold at the boutique to help more than 1,000 Guatemalan families. The “mastermind” at the center of the Bluebird Boutique was Rancho Santa Fe resident Christine Francis. A clean-water art exhibit showcased artwork from local students on how water blesses their lives, and youngsters could also participate at a craft-making station for a quarter, with the change going to Maya Relief. A popular “Made to Or-

Christine Francis, Bluebird Boutique organizer, and Shaun Shields. der” booth allowed people to purchase personalized gift items such as homemade holiday candy like salted caramel shortbread, peppermint bark and s’more cups. An opportunity drawing was held for an original 80-inch-square handquilted Medallion quilt valued at more than $1,000 — the winner was Heidi Vassefi. Among handmade quilts, pillows, jewelry, baskets, garden art and children’s toys, a display showed the problems that many Guatemalan families face daily, including no clean water, smoke-filled homes because of open cooking fires, which also cause respiratory illness and burns. In Guatemala, 95 percent of the water sources are contaminated. To help find solutions for those problems, people could gift a Maya Relief donation in the name of a loved one: $35 for a water filter that can provide 10 gallons of bacteria-free water daily, or $150 for a cement cook stove that prevents smoke inside the home and uses 70 percent less wood to op-

Local residents embark on Roosevelt Centennial Expedition in Brazil BY KRISTINA HOUCK It’s been a century since Theodore Roosevelt explored the uncharted River of Doubt — a journey that nearly killed the former president. To mark the centennial, two local residents recently kicked off their own scientific expedition of the Amazon river. “We’re paying homage to that expedition,” said Jeffrey Lehmann, who left for the trip on Oct. 15. “It’s a tribute to the incredible sacrifices they made to go down that river 100 years ago.” Roosevelt and renowned Brazilian explorer Cândido Rondon explored and mapped the 1,000-mile long river in 1914. But because the region remains relatively unknown, Lehmann and Marc Meyers, an engineer and professor at UC San Diego, plan to retrace the route, celebrating the first expedition, conducting science experiments and comparing the changes that have occurred over the past century. “There’s lots that we don’t know about that river still,” Lehmann said. ‘We can see its path from a satellite, but we don’t really know what’s down there.” Lehmann and Meyers met through friends in 1991. Lehmann had just graduated from UC San Diego when Meyers started teaching at the campus. Meyers, a native of Brazil, specializes in biomimicry, designing synthetic materials inspired by nature. His passion for the field stems from his participation in the Rondon Project, when he explored the Amazon rainforest in 1969. Since then, Meyers has conducted extensive research on biological specimens from Brazil, including toucan beaks and piranha teeth. He will further his research of the rainforest’s flora and fauna during the expedition. Lehmann, a former engineer at San Diego-based General Atomics, is the host of “Weekend Explorer,” an Emmyaward winning travel series that airs on more than 220 Public Broadcasting Service stations. While he isn’t filming the trip for the show, he is capturing footage for a planned documentary. “When Marc asked if I wanted to be a part of this, I immediately jumped at the opportunity,” Lehmann said. In preparation for the expedition, the pair crafted a 175-page guide of the river and studied Roosevelt’s “Through the Brazilian Wilderness,” which details the first expedition.

“What they did was so amazing,” Lehmann said. “We’re going to be facing incredible dangers and risks. It’s phenomenal what we’re going to be facing. But what they faced was 10 times worse than what we’ll face. We have a packed kayak that’s built on modern technologies. We have all these inoculations.” Lehmann and Meyers will explore the river, now called Rio Roosevelt, along with two Brazilian colonels. Their journey should take about a month, Lehmann said. “It’s going to be very exciting,” Lehmann said.

Education Matters/Opinion San Dieguito enrollment study group formed, facilitator chosen BY MARSHA SUTTON Vocal community dissatisfaction with San Dieguito Union High School District poliMarsha Sutton cies on enrollment and attendance boundaries last spring has led the district to create a task force to explore the issue – and to select a facilitator for the group who charges $350 an hour. The task force, officially called the High School Enrollment Study Group, grew out of objections earlier this year to the lottery system SDUHSD uses to allow admittance to the district’s two “open enrollment” high schools – San Dieguito Academy and Canyon Crest Academy. Called “schools of choice” by SDUHSD, these two high schools are open to any student in the district. The other two comprehensive high schools are called boundary schools; students in the northern half of the district are assigned to La Costa Canyon and in the south to Torrey Pines, unless the student chooses to apply to one of the academies. If more applications are received for the academies

than there are seats available, a random lottery system is used to select the lucky winners. Students not selected are guaranteed a seat at either LCC or TP. Dozens of parents, mostly from Cardiff and Encinitas, united and asked the district to re-examine its enrollment policies and give priority to students living near SDA. They made a compelling case for neighborhood schools. The uproar caused the district to reverse its previous policy that denied entry to all waitlisted ninth-graders, admitting 65 students at SDA and 125 at CCA this fall. Because of the growing popularity of the two academies, and because the lottery system was established 18 years ago, San Dieguito administrators decided the time had come to re-evaluate their enrollment and boundary policies. Thus the study group. Although some questioned the need for such a group, believing district staff should research the issue and present options to the school board, SDUHSD’s associate superintendent of educational services Mike Grove said community involvement was crucial. Without the group or the facilitator, he said the public

might think the district was pushing its own agenda. “There are some members of the community who don’t trust this is going to be a fair and impartial process,” Grove said. “I think we have an obligation to ask the community what do you want,” he said. “We’ve had this system for almost 20 years … and this is a pretty significant change that would impact a lot of people.” Furthermore, Grove said the group will not be making recommendations or voting on the best options. It is unreasonable, he said, to expect the group to reach consensus when there are so many varied opinions. Rather, the goal is “to gather information so the board can make the decision,” he said. “It’s not this group’s job to make this decision,” he said. “It’s the board’s job to make this decision. But the board also needs to make that decision with good information.” Grove said the group will hear from demographics and enrollment experts, collect information, and discuss options in detail. He anticipated participants will eventually come up with two to four options, with pros and cons for each, which will be presented

to the school board. He said he was unable to predict how long the process would take but did not expect any changes sooner than the fall of 2016. Facilitator The facilitator selected to lead this effort, Leonard Steinberg of the Creative Alliance Group of Encinitas, confirmed Grove’s statements, saying, “We don’t vote on anything. We also don’t prioritize the options.” Steinberg emphasized that this is not a task force, which examines issues and comes up with solutions, but rather a working study group. He said the group will listen to experts, then break out into smaller working sessions, develop options that meet legal constraints, list benefits and drawbacks of each option, create action plans that address how to implement the options, and then present everything to the school board for trustees to debate and decide upon. Along the way, Steinberg said the study group will hold town hall meetings with the public to explain the information gathered, update the community on progress, and hear feedback. Steinberg and his wife are listed as the principals of

the company and are the only two employees. Steinberg’s rate of $350 per hour, which will be paid through the General Fund, was justified by SDUHSD’s Grove who said no work will be done without his prior approval for each specific task. Grove said if he were to lead the meetings, the perception might be that the outcome would be biased “because I work for the district.” Also, he said it would “preclude me from actually participating in the meetings as the representative of the district.” He said he and SDUHSD superintendent Rick Schmitt interviewed Steinberg at length, have been very satisfied with his previous work in the district, and felt comfortable with both his ability and his hourly rate. “He has the skills we believe to be a good facilitator based on our past experience with him,” Grove said. The contract with Steinberg’s company was approved by the school board at its Oct. 2 meeting by a vote of 4 to 1, with board member John Salazar opposed. Concerned the contract looks like a blank check, Salazar asked his fellow board members to at least approve a cap on expenses for the openended contract, which was rejected. “I asked for us to add a ‘not to exceed amount’ – they all said no,” Salazar wrote in an email. He said the other

four board members “then went on to vote yes” for the contract. “I think something is wrong with that.” Grove said a dollar limit in the contract might end a process that’s not done and then he’d need to ask for more money. Also, when a not-to-exceed amount is included in contracts, Grove said consultants tend to bill up to that amount. He said the contract is structured in such a way that Steinberg “doesn’t bill any hours unless I direct it.” “The prep will be done with me,” Grove said. “We’re going to plan this process out together.” He said this was not just out of fiscal concerns but to avoid the perception that Grove is “running the show or trying to shepherd it in a particular direction” – or that Steinberg is. “He doesn’t do any work unless I say so,” Grove said, adding that his staff will do all the research and preparation of materials. “What I really need him for is to give some input on the planning of the meetings and then to run the meetings,” Grove said. No apologies To compare fees, an attorney for the district, Daniel Shinoff of Stutz Artiano Shinoff & Holtz, charges $200 an hour, and a contract was ap-

What do the RSF Golf Club, Tennis Club, Riding Club, Senior Center, Community Center, Library Guild, Historical Society, and Garden Club all have in common? They all have to fund their operational costs and facility expenses with money contributed by their members. For all of these entities, there have been hard times in the process. Now a group of our Association members, as yet unknown by names or numbers, wants the Rancho Santa Fe Association to contribute $350,000 to this group to pay professionals to refine what a study committee has recommended after spending $85,000 and one year of intense study. The committee’s proposed plan is three swimming pools, a 15,000-square-foot workout center, a cafe that would serve alcoholic beverages, and 150 additional parking spaces in the area of the existing golf and tennis clubs. The planning committee projects at least 350 families will join this new health club complex and will pay substantial initiation fees and monthly dues. However, they also concede that the RSF Association will have to contribute the great majority of the funds necessary to build the complex ($8,000,000 to $10,000,000) and annual contributions thereafter in excess of $500,000. A logical suggestion is for the committee to identify 350 families who will go on record as being future members of the health club after its construction. As proof of their commitment to the plan, they would each contribute $1,000, which would then be used to pay for the additional professional services requested by the health club committee. This type of contribution would mirror the efforts of prior groups that advocated and studied construction of swimming facilities. These groups all funded their own studies. In addition, we will receive additional input from those with a financial interest as to what they desire. This will be helpful in later deciding on whether to finance the facility. We should all vote against the Association providing $350,000 for additional professional studies, instead insisting that the new group provide whatever additional study funds are necessary. By doing this, we will find out whether there is real financial interest from prospective members; and if there is, we will have additional information before voting on whether to proceed with construction of the proposed health club. Bill Hinchy Rancho Santa Fe

Priorities Members of the RSF Association pay annual dues to the Association at the rate of 14 cents per 100 dollars of assessed value per residence. We have no issues as to whether we have sufficient income to operate our community. The issues our Association faces is how we spend the money. Past Associate boards have budgeted for operational expenses and money for the purchase of open space. In addition to land purchases, the fund has grown to over $6,000,000 in cash. The funds collected for that purpose now reside in a fund known as the “Community Enhancement Fund” (formerly the Open Space Fund). This allows current and subsequent boards to spend the money for whatever they deem appropriate and necessary. We now have a request to build three swimming pools, a 15,000-square-foot workout facility, and a cafe that would serve alcoholic beverages. The cost would approach $15,000,000. The money to build such a facility would come from donors and initial membership fees. However, most of the money would come from the Community Enhancement Fund. This would deplete the fund. The annual cost to the Association could exceed $500,000. Is this an appropriate expenditure for our community? To truly improve our community and significantly increase our property values we should use our Community Enhancement Funds as follows: 1) Immediately work with the RSF Community Service District to build the necessary equipment to provide usable water to the RSF Golf Club. An investment of $2,000,000 could assure reasonably priced water to the club for its future financial survival. 2) Reach out monetarily to the companies who are currently interested in providing high-speed internet coverage to the covenant and make sure there is a quality network throughout the covenant. 3) Contribute funds and work with the County of San Diego to provide better road maintenance throughout the covenant. 4) Provide sufficient funding to ensure that all right of ways along the roadways are properly planted and maintained. 5) Create a fund to financially assist homeowners who either voluntarily or by order of the fire department need to remove dead trees and other growth to guard against fire. 6) Maintain and expand our trail system. 7) Financially partner with SDG&E to underground utilities in areas of Rancho Santa Fe where they are a fire danger or an eyesore.

Rant with Randi: Apparently, parenting does need a license “You know, Mrs. Buckman, you need a license to buy a dog, or drive a car. Hell, you need a license to catch a fish! But they’ll let any buttreaming a*hole be a father.” That quote (from the movie “Parenthood”), comes back to me on a daily basis — who knew how dialed-in it would be in the year 2014? I don’t know about you, but I can’t keep up with all the outrageous parenting stories I’ve been reading about lately. There’s Adrian Peterson and the “corporal punishment” debate, the “shaming your kid” method and making your kid drink until they are hospitalized. I’m not sure what’s going on with parents and their abusive parenting methods, but they are just plain creepy, and yes, I’m judging. I grew up in Texas, and the high school that I attended used “licks” as punishment, with a wooden paddle. Can you imagine that today? Your child comes home and tells you that the principal “hit” them? When I saw the Charles Barkley interview on CBS about Adrian Peterson, when he said, “I’m from the South; whipping — we do that all the time. Every black parent in the South is going to be in jail under those circumstances,” I agreed. It is a Southern thing — but that doesn’t make it right. Sexual abuse happens too, doesn’t make it OK. There’s much debate about whether or not this is a racial thing, a geography thing, or just plain child abuse? I never think it’s OK to hit a child, because it’s a form of torture and humiliation. What do we think is going to happen if we “hit” a child in order to get them to behave the way we want them to? Violence begets violence. I was never a fan of time-outs, in fact they are just stupid, but you have to find a way to reach your kid without inflicting physical harm. It’s why the men who beat women (Ray Rice) do what they do. It’s how they were raised, and it’s how they are going to raise their own kids. I don’t think Adrian Peterson thought he did anything wrong when he beat his son, because that’s what he knows. At what point does Adrian see that causing your child to have open wounds on his little body isn’t right? If you grow up with limousines and caviar every day, that’s how you think the rest of the world lives. If you grow up and your father beats you every day, that’s how you think the rest the world lives. You know what you grow up with. How about when parents want to demonstrate their point, so they make their child stand at school, holding a sign with their punishment, saying things like: “I hit my sister and I like hitting girls,” or “I’m a bully.” While some parents agree that this type of punishment is effective, I think it’s disgusting. What’s the goal? If you shame a child, how is that helping them? Some will argue that it’s the only way to get through to your kid when nothing else works, but I don’t believe they’ve tried everything else. Those parents should have to stand there with a sign saying, “I’m a bad parent and I like to shame my child.” Let’s see how they like it. Did you read about the dad from Mississippi who caught his 15 year-old son drinking alcohol? He thought it would be a good idea to make him drink until he passed out. Apparently the boy wound up unconscious and in the emergency room. I just want to get in that dad’s head and understand what possessed him to practically kill his own kid in order to teach him a lesson. Does that make sense to you? Unfortunately, we can’t hand out common sense when someone becomes a parent. Hopefully, these incidents will gain enough attention that we start educating people on how far is too far. All these disciplinary measures are taken to excess. I might get my psychology license because there’s going to be a lot of kids on someone’s couch dealing with all their issues later in life.

EDUCATION continued from page 18 proved on Oct. 2 for a Ph.D. psychologist for $150 per hour for neuropsychological and behavioral assessments. The San Diego County Office of Education offers facilitators at no charge who have extensive experience leading task forces and strategic planning sessions for San Diego County school districts. In a letter to all five SDUHSD trustees, Encinitas resident Danica Edelbrock objected to the $350 rate, saying San Diego companies like the National Conflict Resolution Center can do good work for a lower rate. “I feel that you probably could have even recruited someone from the community who would have volunteered to do this for free,” Edelbrock wrote. Steinberg, however, offered no apologies. “These are what my fees are,” he said. “I don’t know how you want me to justify those fees. I don’t exactly know why I need to justify those fees.” He said his company specializes in working with public agencies, providing a variety of different services in the construction and community development sectors. “That’s what I do for a living,” he said. “That’s what I’ve been doing for many, many years.”

The contract approved by the school board states that Creative Alliance Group will “provide assistance with the creation and implementation of the high school enrollment study group, establishing a collaborative environment between the district and the community, and facilitating and coordinating with all parties regarding attendance boundary areas and school enrollment, during the period October 3, 2014 until project completion or termination by either party with 30-day written notice, at the rate of $350.00 per hour plus out of pocket expenses, to be expended from the General Fund 03.” Edelbrock, in her letter, asked trustees to state how much money has been allocated in total for the contract. The total amount is unknown, said Grove, who called the contract “pretty standard” and said any arbitrary number would be difficult to estimate. “I don’t know how long this is going to take or exactly how many hours I’m going to have him do work for us,” Grove said. “I don’t know. We’ve not done this before.” Grove said he didn’t “even know how to predict how many meetings we’re going to have. What I don’t want to do is rush this process.” I asked Grove if bids had been solicited for this contract, and he said that profes-

sional services don’t typically go out for bid – “especially ones that aren’t going to be hundreds of thousands of dollars.” He also added that contracts that go out for bid can take months before vendors reply, are reviewed, and selected. Conflict of interest? Cost is not the only concern. Because Steinberg’s two children currently attend San Dieguito Academy, the perception of a conflict of interest exists and some have questioned Steinberg’s objectivity. “We are all well aware that there are multiple other options for mediation that would not have introduced such clear bias to the process,” wrote Encinitas resident Lisa Koch-Hulle to trustees. “It is my sincere hope that you reconsider this contract, as the result of any mediation from a clearly conflicted person will certainly and rightly be questioned, making the effort doomed from the start.” In her letter to board members, Edelbrock echoed these concerns. “This person is supposed to be unbiased,” Edelbrock wrote. “Did Dr. Grove mention to you that this man lives in La Costa and his children attend SDA? If he offered this information, then I question your judgment to approve this.” “Rick [Schmitt] and I both interviewed him and

that was one of the first questions I asked,” Grove said. He said Steinberg told them he was objective and that his children would be unaffected by any decision. “He has no dog in the fight,” Grove said. “He doesn’t care what the outcome is.” Steinberg couldn’t remember if either of his children were on a waitlist to get into SDA but said LCC would have been fine if they had not been admitted to SDA. He does not live within walking distance of either school. “When people say I can’t be objective, they don’t know my background,” he said. “I’ve had some experience in the past with this district on a boundary school issue.” Steinberg is referring to his battle with the school district more than seven years ago, over San Dieguito’s decision not to build a middle school in his neighborhood in La Costa Valley. Even though his school had not been built yet, he said it was the “same basic concept” – the importance of children attending a neighborhood school. “I really understand where these folks are coming from,” he said. Grove said Steinberg is an excellent choice for a facilitator not in spite of but because he struggled with the district on similar issues in the past. “He has no problem tak-

ing the district on, as he’s demonstrated,” Grove said. “I think that gives legitimacy to the fact that he’s not going to be a district yes-man on any of this.” Grove added that Steinberg’s experience in the past means he has the knowledge and context of the boundary and enrollment issues the district is wrestling with. “There’s value in having someone who understands it rather than just hiring some random facilitator from outside the district who would come in and wouldn’t necessarily understand the community and the issues,” Grove said. “I’ve been involved for many, many years with this district,” Steinberg said. “I understand there’s a tremendous amount of passion around this issue.” Steinberg said the charge of bias is unfounded also because the study group will not vote or make recommendations. “We are simply coming up with ideas and options and exploring how those options can be put into play,” he said. Study group members An email soliciting applications was sent to every parent in the district in September, and Grove said 16 parents were selected to serve on the study group, out of 104 applicants. Grove and Steinberg sorted through the applications,

seeking input from SDUHSD site administrators as well as feeder districts. Board members were not involved in the selection process, Grove said. The questionnaire was extensive, asking about their interest in joining the group, prior relevant experience or skills, opinions on the issues, involvement in other school groups or activities, and availability to meet during day and evening hours. Grove said they wanted a mix of members who supported boundaries and those who didn’t. Besides diversity in positions on the issues, they sought geographic representation from communities throughout the district and parents with kids of varying ages. In addition to the 16 parents, the study group will include eight certificated staff members (teachers and counselors) – two from each of the four comprehensive high schools. Interested teachers and counselors were invited to apply and were chosen by Grove and each site’s principal. The goal was to select people with diverse perspectives as well as those who work well in a group. Also serving on the study group are two principals (David Jaffe from Torrey Pines and Tim Hornig from San Dieguito Academy), Grove, and another district

flection of themselves when their child is diagnosed with something. They ask themselves what they did wrong. I think (a better idea) is early prevention,” he said. “Starting with kids as young as preschool, teach them that it’s cool to have feelings. Make it socially acceptable to have emotions.” He contends that children need to be told it is OK to have and express their positive and negative emotions; otherwise, they might turn to drugs to avoid feeling them. Pantoliano’s lecture, and the luncheon itself, was held the day before National Bipolar Awareness Day, and the kickoff of the Say It Forward campaign. During the campaign, which closed Oct. 12, those with mental health problems were encouraged to use social media to share their stories using the #SayItForward tag to educate their friends. In 2012, The Say It Forward campaign reached 10,000 people, and in 2013, more than 1 million people. Numbers for the 2014 campaign are still coming in. International Bipolar Foundation co-founder and

RSF resident Muffy Walker said “The concept ‘pay it forward’ means to perform a selfless good deed for someone. ‘Say It Forward’ does the same by speaking out against stigma. ‘Say It Forward’ will encourage people to bust it and show the world that mental conditions such as bipolar disorder can affect anyone, and there is no shame in it.” In an ongoing effort, Walker also announced the Make Someone Happy campaign, and challenged each attendee to make three people happy. To help, the Bipolar Foundation distributed red clown noses, and asked guests to put the nose on and send a photo to someone who could use a laugh. The International Bipolar Foundation provides free and globally accessible resources for mental health support. It also hosts quarterly lectures in La Jolla, and an annual “Behind the Mask” gala in May. Last year, David Russell, writer-director of “Silver Linings Playbook” was honored. This year’s event, “Changing the Game of Stigma,” promises to be big, with Walker hinting that NBA basketball player Metta World Peace (born Ron Art-

est) will attend. On the Web •Bipolar Foundation: IBPF.org •No Kidding, Me Too: nkm2.org

school. Applicants had opinions across the map about what the district should do, he said. “We selected people with a variety of perspectives because that is the intent, to make sure all the voices are heard,” Grove said. Staff members and students are also on the committee, including those who did not get into their school choice. The group will look at all the potential ways SDUHSD can enroll students in its schools, seek input from the community on the options, and present options and information to the school board to make a decision.

GRAVES continued from page 3 without a corrective surgery for her strabismus, a condition in which the eyes aren’t properly aligned. They want to highlight other Greater Than Graves’ feats and provide hope and encouragement to patients. “I want people to know that there’s help out there, and most people will return to normal over time with proper treatment,” Kathleen said. GDATF has assembled a strong leadership board and medical advisory board, which includes Dr. Don Kikkawa from the Shiley Eye Center at UC San Diego, which specializes in a custom, intricate surgery for Graves’ patients. “The eye issues can be disfiguring, where people can’t even close their eyes while they are sleeping,” Kathleen said. “We’re very lucky to have Shiley Eye Center in San Diego. They are fantastic.” One of their newest board members is Carla DiMare, also the president of the Rancho Santa Fe Senior Center. DiMare said she is proud to be a part of the only organization that provides support and a better quality of life for people around the country.

“I wouldn’t change my diagnosis and the people I’ve met. I wouldn’t change a thing,” said Kathleen, who opted to have her thyroid removed and is managing her disease. She eventually did get her pilot’s license and is learning to fly helicopters. “To be able to help all those people has been very nice and very rewarding. Graves’ was life-changing and a rude interruption. I appreciate my health and the wonderful people in my life more than ever.” The Graves’ Disease and Thyroid Foundation will host a book signing and pumpkin sale Oct. 24, from 3-5 p.m., in the parking lot of the GDATF office at 6106 La Flecha in Rancho Santa Fe. Author and UT columnist Richard Lederer will be present and signing some of his latest works, including Monsters Unchained, Puns Spooken Here and American Trivia. One-hundred percent of the proceeds will be donated to help support the charity. GDATF will also be the patient organization group at the upcoming American Thyroid Association’s annual meeting in Coronado. They will host a free public health forum from 1-3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 1, at the Hotel del Coronado with physi-

In addition, two students from each comprehensive high school were recruited and selected by the high school principals. That makes 36 members total. Grove said he would not release the names of the study group members until after the first meeting on Nov. 12. Because “there is already significant misinformation about this topic,” Grove said he first wants to make sure “that all participants are clear on some basic information regarding high school enrollment, the group’s purpose, and their role in it.” The dates of the meetings will also not be made public, but information will be posted periodically and open forums will be held to allow the group to share information with the community and seek public input.

ber. Another member, who moved to Rancho Santa Fe just three months ago, said that a pool and fitness center wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t turn the Ranch into The Bridges, but would go far in creating a sense of community that he feels is lacking. Rick Coyne and Bob Borsch from ClubMark, the company that conducted last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s member survey on the golf club and has been working with the pool and fitness committee, helped lead the community meeting. Coyne referred to an independent study by First American Title that found that over the past 10 years, property values have increased in The Bridges by 12.9 percent while decreasing in the Covenant by 16.7 percent. The presentation also included insight from Jason Barry of Barry Estates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There can be little doubt that Covenant values would increase materially if modern amenities were added, notably a community health club and pool, as well as robust wireless and Internet infrastucture,â&#x20AC;? Barry said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The lack of these amenities has hurt Covenant values relative to the many surrounding, and even statewide, high-end communi-

ties recently.â&#x20AC;? Committee member Mike Licosati said that the pool and health club could increase property values by 5 percent, which translates to $200 million in increased valuation to Covenant members. The tentative cost model for a 15,000-square-foot facility is an estimated $10 million, but the professional planning phase would better shape those numbers, according to the health club and pool committee. Costs for the project are proposed to be funded through a combination of Covenant Enhancement Funds, pre-construction membership sales, financing and also donations and fundraising. Already the Luddy family has committed to cover 10 percent of the project cost. Licosati said the enrollment would be a $1,500 initiation cost and a $180 monthly fee, which is competitive with surrounding club offerings. One member asked whether it was legal to charge an initiation fee to members for something that they already own. Slosar said it is legal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it a high barrier to entry, but why would we want to? We want to build something that will be successful, and we want to build something that neighbors will want to join,â&#x20AC;? Slosar said.

Preliminary plans place the facility between the RSF Golf Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clubhouse and the RSF Tennis Club. Architect Kirk Mason said parking would be a challenge should the project move forward. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parking will be a focus if we get the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;yesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vote,â&#x20AC;? Mason said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will look at how to appropriately plan the site to add parking convenient for the various uses on the site.â&#x20AC;? A supporter said they envisioned teenagers riding their golf carts to the pool as she did in her own youth. A dad said he imagined saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let me play nine holes and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll meet you at the pool,â&#x20AC;? and a grandparent said she liked the idea of having a place to take the grandkids when they visited. One member asserted that spending the $350,000 on the planning was a risk â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if a vote was held on the pool and health club and the community voted â&#x20AC;&#x153;no,â&#x20AC;? that $350,000 would just disappear. Slosar noted that the decision to take spending the initial money to a vote was one their board made to be as transparent as possiblethe most transparent they can be; they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to take a vote to spend the money. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Past boards would have already spent your money,â&#x20AC;? Slosar said.

As for why voters should support her, she said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;They will have someone represent them who will do their homework.â&#x20AC;?

homeowners association boards, as well as the San Diego YMCA Board of Directors, he is communications chair for the Urban Land Institute of San Diego/Tijuana and marketing director for TEDx San Diego. Tanner is running to retain his seats on both the fire protection and community service district boards. In his statement for the fire board election, he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The well managed district is financially solvent and debt free, while incorporating the best equipment and people in the profession.â&#x20AC;? Note: Scott Union did not respond to an email requesting biographical information by presstime for this newspaper. Four candidates are running for three open seats on the board of the community services district, which provides wastewater treatment for Rancho Santa Fe and nearby communities, and also contracts with the Rancho Santa Fe Association to maintain landscaping along the public right-of-way within the covenant. Seeking four-year terms are incumbents Tanner and Dale Nelson, appointed in-

cumbent Bill Hinchy and challenger Laurel Lemarie. Lemarie is a member of the San Dieguito Planning Group and a computer systems analyst. According to her candidate statement, if elected, she would support undergrounding projects for power, cable and high-speed Internet. Hinchy is a retired attorney and 38-year resident of Rancho Santa Fe, who has served as president of the Rancho Santa Fe Association and tennis club, and as president of Las Ancianos. He is also a managing member of two real estate limited liability companies that own and operate commercial and residential property in San Diego. Nelson is a 48-year resident of Rancho Santa Fe and has served as president and as a member of the community services district board for many years. He is an elder of the RSF Village Church, a two-time president of the RSF Rotary Club and was president of the RSF Garden Club. He recently flew on an Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. for World War II veterans.

Disabilities no hurdle for local family of athletes • Couple and their 16-year-old twins with cerebral palsy tackle San Diego Triathlon Challenge

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY PAM KRAGEN, SPECIAL TO RSF REVIEW When Jim Pathman found out in 1998 that his wife, Lisa, was expecting twins, he bought a matching pair of Schwinn bikes so the boys could one day join their hyper-athletic parents in their shared passion for outdoor sports. Seventeen years later, those bikes are still in their boxes, because twins Shane and Riley were born with cerebral palsy. But as Jim would say, when there’s a Pathman will, there’s a Pathman way. And on Sunday, Oct. 19, the active family of four achieved their dream of completing a triathlon in La Jolla. “We did great and although we were some of the last finishers, we made it through as a family,” Lisa said. Since their boys were 4 years old, the local couple have used adapted cycles and seats, walkers, braces, carts, walking sticks, skis and bodyboards to involve

their now-16-year-old twins in marathons, triathlons, downhill skiing, horseback riding, swimming, long-distance biking, hang gliding and even white-water rafting. Pathman, 50, said all it takes is a little imagination to achieve the active family lifestyle that he and Lisa, 48, describe as “the Pathman normal.” With two teams of volunteers and some adaptations, the Pathman family swam 1 mile, ran 10 miles and cycled 44 miles in the Aspen Medical Products San Diego Triathlon Challenge. The race is expected to raise more than $1 million for the Challenged Athletes Foundation, which has worked with the family for the past 12 years to help them realize their sports goals. Foundation marketing director Jenna Novotny said the Pathmans are an inspiration to others around the country. “They’re a very special

family who have taken it above and beyond and done so much,” she said. “Other families, who may never have envisioned what’s possible, see what they do, and how nothing stops them, and it gives them the inspiration to try.” Jim and Lisa met in 1991 while bicycling on the boardwalk near their Mission Beach apartments. He surfed and was a competitive waterskiier. She was an all-CIF soccer player and competitive wakeboarder. They both biked every day, and couldn’t wait to bring their kids along for the ride. But the twins arrived 14 weeks premature, each weighing just 1 pound, 9 ounces. Shane, older by 21 minutes, had bleeding in his brain that caused physical and neurological issues. Riley had a brain infection that caused physical, neurological and mental disabilities. The twins stayed in the neonatal intensive care unit for 3 1/2 months, and when they went home, their im-

Photo courtesy of UT San Diego mune systems were so compromised, they couldn’t go out in public for two years. “We went through a lot of trauma in the first few years, first because of the birth and then the realization of how it would affect everyone’s lives,” said Lisa, who teaches elementary school.

The first glimmer of normalcy came when the boys were a year old, and a friend offered the family a three-week vacation in his villa on a tiny French resort island. To get around the car-free island, Jim devised a bicycle trailer to tow the boys around. A year later,

the boys coasted down a ski slope at Big Bear on an adapted sled. “Jim was crying when he saw the boys skiing; it was a big turning point for us,” Lisa said. If he couldn’t find an See ATHLETES, page B27

J*Company offers youth production Canyon Crest Academy to present of ‘Disney’s Peter Pan’ starting Oct. 25 50s-era musical ‘Zombie Prom’ BY ASHLEY MACKIN Of the 88 young actors following “the second star to the right and straight on till morning” in J*Company’s production of “Peter Pan,” nine of them are from La Jolla, including the young leading lady. Gabi Leibowitz of La Jolla Shores plays Wendy Moira Angela Darling in the production, which opens Oct. 25 and runs through Nov. 9 at the Garfield Theatre at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center in La Jolla. Having seen the Disney movie (many times), Leibowitz said the tale is one of her favorites. “It’s just such a beautiful story and it’s going to be a great production,” she said. “There are lots of super-talented kids with great costumes and high production value.” To prepare for the role, Leibowitz first had to work on her English accent and practice singing, but thankfully there has been a lot of rehearsal time. “I love going to rehearsals,” she said. “I love seeing everyone come together and see what they bring to the table.” Joining Leibowitz in the cast are Lindsay Gartner, Gali Laska, Lauren Levi, Charles Lester, Gia Marino, Eliana Nahl, Faith Nibbe and Mac Simpson, of La Jolla. Directed by Joey Landwehr, the production has a special focus: your mother and mine. Using the script and songs as inspiration, Landwehr asked his cast to compile a list of all the things, big and small, made possible because of their mothers, noting how Mom has helped them accomplish their dreams. From their lists, the actors created a letter, poem or song telling their mothers how grateful they are for their efforts. Leibowitz, who sings the song, “Your

Canyon Crest Academy Envision Theatre presents the musical “Zombie Prom” over the Halloween season at the school’s Black Box Theatre. This girl-loves-ghoul rock-and-roll Off-Broadway musical by Dana Rowe and John Dempsey is set in the atomic 1950s at Enrico Fermi High. A teen’s encounter with the local atomic waste dump causes him to return “transformed” — but he still has the All-American dream of taking a pretty senior to the prom. History comes to his rescue while a selection of original ’50s-style songs keeps the action rocking across the stage. The show will be performed Oct. 24, 25, 30, 31 and Nov. 1. It’s directed by CCA Envision Theatre Coordinator Jeannine Marquie, with guest musical direction by Leigh Scarritt and guest choreography by Max Gidaley.

Twenty-seven cast members play 40 characters in ‘Museum.’ ‘The whole cast tells this story, like an ensemble,’ says one actor.

Art viewers on display in CCA’s ‘Museum’ BY DIANE Y. WELCH If modern art has you baffled, the play “Museum” by Tina Howe, opening Nov. 7 at the Proscenium Theatre at Canyon Crest Academy, will make it crystal clear. But rather than gaining clarity about fine art, it’s the wacky characters viewing the art who are truly the exhibits. And it’s a plot that will make it hard not to laugh throughout the entire production, said cast member Brooke Patterson. The comedic play takes place on the last day of a fictitious art show, “The Broken Silence,” in a New York museum. Its title represents the snippets of chatter that the audience overhears as people pass through the exhibition and make comments. This commentary introduces “humans that we know very little about,” said Jason Maddy, the play’s director, one of CCA’s professional visiting artists. “They are much like people we pass on the street or at Starbucks, living their lives in the presence of art. And along the way, we get to laugh.” Howe’s interpretation of this melting pot of characters, from the often-lofty aficionados who view and appreciate modern art, to the everyday person, beckons the audience to look at themselves, too. During the exhibition’s

last day the audience meets a cross-section of society: art lovers, skeptics, students, lost souls, fellow artists, museum guards and more. Brooke, a CCA senior, plays Tink Solheim, a young woman “deeply invested in one of the artists on exhibition (who) embarks on an existential mission to uncover the secrets in her artwork.” Howe uses well-crafted writing to portray a candid view of people in general, said Brooke. “This play is so smart and so honest ... an amazing example of a great, farcical piece of writing, and it’s hard not to love each of the characters in the show.” Twenty-seven cast members play 40 characters with brisk entrances and exits that require perfectly choreographed timing, yet each portrays a clear picture of their character. Jacob Surovsky, a CCA junior, plays Bob Lamb, a patron of the modern arts who is “very full of himself.” No character is considered a lead role, said Jacob. “The whole cast tells this story, like an ensemble.” To understand the show’s concept, cast members researched museums and works of art by acclaimed artists. “We recently got to hear a speaker discuss a prominent modern artist’s work and how his pieces are created and inspired,” said Jacob, which offered an insight into the mind of a modern artist. There is also a theme to CCA ’s theater season this year, said Maddy, “about outsiders and their effect on society, whether positive or negative.” “Museum” is full of outsiders “who actually want to be a part of something or think they are a part of something, but really discover they are alone,” he explained. The show has so many different characters and opinions that each audience member will take away from the show whatever speaks to them the most, said Jacob. “Much like modern art, this play isn’t a fixed image, but a jumbling of ideas that the observer, not the creator, gets to decide the true meaning of,” he added. The way people are “is truly hilarious when you look at them from an outside perspective,” said Brooke. “I really hope that people will walk away (from the show) being able to laugh at themselves and laugh at how humans behave.” For tickets, visit http://www.cca-envision.org/events. Tickets range from $13 for adults to $6 for students. Showtime is 7 p.m. Canyon Crest Proscenium Theatre is at 5951 Village Center Loop Road, San Diego.

CCA teachers’ expertise extends beyond school, but returns to enrich it BY DIANE Y. WELCH Envision arts offered through Canyon Crest Academy invite visiting artists to enrich the students’ experience. Supported by the school’s foundation, these professionals are role models and show students what is possible. A recent event at CCA’s Proscenium Theatre presented the artists’ work to an appreciative student audience. Also taking part were several of CCA’s Envision faculty who performed on stage or had art pieces exhibited in the lobby. Like the visiting artists, CCA staff are fully engaged in their respective fields and each has strong views as to why the myth of “Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach!” is just that: a myth. Rachel Edwards, who teaches drawing classes and digital imaging, said, “I am a very strong proponent that all teachers, not just arts teachers, should have a passion for pursuing their personal interests and bettering their career skills outside of the classroom.” Edwards has had shows in Los Angeles and Orange County as well as San Diego. She has also taught workshops on figure drawing — her area of expertise — for local arts organizations and at the Said Space gallery in Encinitas. Visual arts coordinator Jessica Matthes, a fine artist, has been commissioned to paint large-scale murals for Kid Ventures in Liberty Station. She recently took part in “Perspectives: The Berlin Wall,” a collaborative show featuring several San Diego artists. “Each artist utilized actual pieces of the Berlin Wall in their work,” said Matthes. The exhibition will be coming to Carlsbad’s Front Porch Gallery next month.

Raines creates video productions with his students and helps with segments of CCA’s weekly television show. “It’s a great way for me to teach by example and work with students, instead of just showing them what to do,” he said.

SAN DIEGO | SAN JOSE | ORANGE COUNTY | RIVERSIDE Which Wich, a chain that offers customizable sandwiches, is opening a third location in Solana Beach. The other two shops are in Carlsbad and La Jolla. Photo by Kristina Houck

Which Wich ready to spread sandwich love to Solana Beach BY KRISTINA HOUCK A new sandwich shop is set to open in Solana Beach. Scheduled to open early November, Which Wich? Superior Sandwiches will replace the former Togoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sandwiches at 691 Lomas Santa Fe Drive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting to work with the contractors, recruit new staff and meet the neighbors,â&#x20AC;? said owner Tony Kulick. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Solana Beach is a wonderful neighborhood to be in.â&#x20AC;? An Encinitas resident, Kulick left his 15-year career as the chief financial officer of Sammyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Woodfired Pizza to purchase the Which Wich restaurant at the Carlsbad Forum in 2012. He and his family had been frequent customers of the fast-casual eatery. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were big fans,â&#x20AC;? Kulick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It had such a broad appeal, and I thought it was time to get out on my own, try something new and take a shot at running my own business.â&#x20AC;? Kulick opened his second Which Wich in La Jolla in May 2013. The Solana Beach site is his third store. Based in Dallas, the fast-casual restaurant chain specializes in sandwiches and salads. From the signature â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wickedâ&#x20AC;? loaded with five meats and three cheeses to a variety of vegetarian options, Which Wich offers more than 50 varieties of customizable â&#x20AC;&#x153;wiches.â&#x20AC;? The shop has a unique ordering system, where guests use red Sharpies to mark up a preprinted menu on a sandwich bag to customize their made-to-order sandwich. Guests are also welcome to draw on their bags and hang their art on the shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Which Wich is a positive environment with great staff and great music,â&#x20AC;? Kulick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about the creativity.â&#x20AC;? Using his stores to give back to the community, Kulick raises funds for local schools through programs such as Which Wich Wednesday with the Rhoades Foundation, where a percentage of the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sales go to its foundation. Through the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Project PB&J, Kulick has also donated more than 100 sandwiches to the Encinitas-based Community Resource Center, which provides safety, stability and a path to self-sufficiency for families in need and victims of domestic violence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a need out there,â&#x20AC;? Kulick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is an easy way for me to participate and help the community.â&#x20AC;? Looking to hire 25 employees, Kulick hosted a job fair Oct. 18 at the new location. If all goes according to schedule, the 1,200-square-foot store will open Nov. 6, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come on in and see us, and give it a try,â&#x20AC;? Kulick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll love it.â&#x20AC;? For more about Which Wich, visit www.whichwich.com.

As each class receives information, they use deductive reasoning to navigate to more accurate positions. Nativity students conducted their inquiry by using map skills and asking directional questions to uncover the precise location of their mystery school. Mystery Skype and Google Earth are tools that not only enhance educational core concepts but also incorporate one of the internet’s most prominent methods of online communication. The children were excited to use such well-known tools to discover the location of the other school and talk with their student counterparts. According to one of the studentinvestigators, the best part was that the “other class was really nice and we got to talk to them. And we got to use Google Earth to find them!” The Nativity School is a preschool-8th grade Catholic school that teaches Christ-like values in a nurturing environment that is academically strong and rich in the spirit of life and love.

Community service, exploration help open world to Grauer School students •Open House to be held Nov. 15 BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although she lives in Carmel Valley, being a student at The Grauer School means Divya Bhatia goes beyond the classroom and even outside North San Diego County to learn. A freshman at the Encinitas-based school, Divya, 14, has already participated in several school-sponsored expeditions, including trips to the mountains in Big Bear and the museums in Washington The Grauer School is hosting an open house on Nov. 15. D.C. An independent college preparatory school, Grauer “Expeditions make me teachers use the Socratic model, encouraging questions. look at the world in a different way,” said Divya. An independent college preparatory school, The Grauer School offers rigorous academics, enriching arts and competitive athletics. In order to graduate, students are also required to complete 50 hours of community service and a total of five weeks of expeditions. In September, Divya was among a dozen ninth- through 12th-grade students who traveled to Navajo Nation in New Mexico. During the five-day trip, students visited Navajo Middle School, toured the Zuni reservation and hiked Canyon de Chelly. “The whole point of an expedition is to do something you wouldn’t do otherwise,” Divya said. “Navajo Nation was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I’m really glad I could do it.” Math teacher Rachel Persons led the expedition. Having previously taught at a school in Navajo Nation, Persons was able to plan a daylong visit with the Zuni people. Students learned how to weave baskets and make bread. They also ate a traditional meal with a family. “It pushed the kids past their comfort level,” Persons said. “It is hard to go in any new community.” Founded in 1991 by Dr. Stuart Grauer, The Grauer School offers 160 classes for 150 students in grades six through 12. The school’s teachers adhere to the Socratic model, encouraging inquiry and discussion. But more than the school’s academics and extracurricular activities, it’s the school-sponsored expeditions that prepare students for life after high school, Persons said. “Our kids are more aware of the world and how their actions contribute,” she said. “Because they have all these experiences, hopefully they’re going to go off and make a difference.” Located at 1500 S. El Camino Real in Encinitas, The Grauer School is hosting an Open House for prospective students and their families from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 15. Tours will take place every 20 minutes.

Be someone’s hero: If you don’t already know CPR, get trained, then sign up for new lifesaving app BY MICHAEL MURPHY Want to save someone’s life? Well, now there’s an app for that. Thanks to a partnership between the county and city of San Diego, as well as emergency responders — including American Medical Response — a new app is now available to San Diego County residents that will undoubtedly save lives, perhaps that of someone you know. The app, known as PulsePoint, is designed to help keep alive those who suffer a cardiac emergency. Here’s how it works: Have you ever been to a restaurant or somewhere else, and you hear a siren off in the distance, and then it gets louder and louder, closer and closer, and then you see an ambulance pull up outside? Oftentimes, paramedics are responding to someone who’s gone into cardiac arrest. But many times, there are people nearby across the street or next door who are trained in CPR, but are unaware of the emergency and unable to help. Using the PulsePoint app, which features the latest GPS technology, 9-1-1 dipatchers will now be able to send a text message to citizens who are trained in CPR of a nearby cardiac emergency at the same time they dispatch an ambulance. Anyone who signs up for the app and receives the notification will be able to respond quickly and begin administering the life-saving technique, keeping the victim’s heart beating until paramedics arrive. Without question, those first few minutes after someone goes into cardiac arrest are critical: A person’s chance of survival skyrockets when CPR is administered right then and there. In fact, administering CPR almost triples the chances of survival. Unfortunately, only 32 percent of cardiac arrest victims receive CPR. So sadly, only 8 percent of cardiac arrest victims will survive. This app will undoubtedly improve these numbers. Our message is clear: Get trained in CPR, sign up for the PulsePoint app, and be a hero. AMR offers free CPR training year-round. It’s easy to learn and takes only about 15 minutes. For information about our training, go to amr-sandiego.com. Once you’re trained, you can sign up for the PulsePoint app by going to pulsepoint.org. This is just one way we as a community are working together to save lives in San Diego County. Please get trained in CPR and sign up for the PulsePoint app today. Murphy is general manager of American Medical Response in San Diego and Orange counties.

Nékter Juice Bar, MA+hnasium coming to Del Mar Highlands Del Mar Highlands Town Center recently announced that nékter, which serves fresh made juices, smoothies and açai bowls, is opening at the Center this fall. (Note: The official name is “nékter” with a lower case “n”.) Nékter is the second new tenant announced for the shopping center this month. MA+hnasium: The Math Learning Center, a personalized math tutorial learning center, recently opened next to FedEx Office. In addition to the fresh-made juices and smoothies, nékter offers a wide assortment of nutritious snacks, açai bowls, cold-pressed bottled juices and the popular nékter Cleanse Program with 15 pounds of cold-pressed fruits and vegetables packed into a day’s cleanse. The juice bar’s new location at Del Mar Highlands Town Center will open in November 2014 next to Taverna Blu in what was formerly Anthony’s Shoe Repair. Anthony’s Shoe Repair relocated earlier this month to the space above Snooze across from Champagne French Bakery Café. With more than a handful of locations currently in San Diego, the addition of MA+hnasium at Del Mar Highlands Town Center expands the successful international program further in the region. MA+hnasium aims to significantly increase children’s math skills, understanding of math concepts and overall school performance, while building confidence and forging a positive attitude toward the subject. As the next phase of renovations of the Del Mar Highlands Town Center and the highly anticipated openings of nékter Juice Bar and MA+hnasium move forward, there will be several relocations of existing tenants, including the relocation of Unleashed by Petco in early December to the space between Bath & Body Works and Geppetto’s Toys, Pearl Izumi to the space next to Sushi Ya and Village Mill Bread to the space in between Which Wich and GameStop. For more information about the Del Mar Highlands Town Center, located at the corner of Del Mar Heights Road and El Camino Real, please visit www.delmarhighlandstowncenter.com.

Small makes all the diﬀerence.

Abdul Kassim, the founder of the Kibera Girls Soccer Academy in Kibera, Kenya, made stops at Pacific Ridge School and Canyon Crest Academy recently during his first United States tour. Kassim, a 2015 Aspen Institute New Voices Fellowship nominee, spoke to students, faculty and guests about the uncertain and bleak futures faced by the nearly 1 million residents of Kibera. A majority of those living in Kibera make less than one dollar a day. One symptom of such extreme poverty is a lack of access to education, especially for young girls. In 2006, Kassim founded the soccer academy to provide girls with the rare opportunity to continue education beyond eighth grade. Today, KGSA is composed of 20 full-time staff, more than 130 students annually, and a growing list of Abdul Kassim academic, artistic and athletic programming. Among the school’s growing array of academic courses and activities is a journalism club known as the Kibera Shedders. KGSA and the Kibera Shedders are partnered with Pacific Ridge School and Canyon Crest Academy through a non-profit program called the Global Journal Project. Together, the students produce Global Vantage, an award-winning, internationally minded, studentrun magazine. Global Vantage has given KGSA’s journalism students a platform to share their stories and step into roles as advocates for themselves and their community. “Our graduates who worked on Global Vantage are attending university and are very involved the community,” said Kassim. “The program has given them a forum for building skills and getting their voices heard, and they are speaking out very confidently.” The private-public international school partnership fostered by Global Journal Project has benefited KGSA financially as well. Funding from Global Vantage helped the school build a water station that provides clean drinking water for its students, and more recently, a Global Vantage connection led to a donation of 150 Kindle readers from the Worldreader program. For more about the Kibera Girls Soccer Academy’s story and mission, visit www.kgsafoundation.org.

Flu shots, Halloween program, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;holiday copingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coming up at RSF Senior center

Female Athlete Volunteers in third year of service Female Athlete Volunteers kicked off its new season of community service by partnering with Advocates for Injured Athletes to attend their Athletes Saving Athletes program. This program taught the girls how to understand the signs and symptoms of sports related injuries and chronic medical conditions that can occur on the sports fields. The girls learned how to recognize head/neck injuries, apply basic CPR and even how to use an automated external defibrillator. FAV is now in its third year as a community service organization for female athletes in grades 7-10. The organization has more than 60 members, and opened up a new chapter this year with 23 middle school members. Last year, the members delivered more than 600 hours of community service to more than 40 organizations around San Diego County. They are proudest of their biggest accomplishment, which was to raise $8000 to support a child in the Make-A-Wish program, and send her and her family to Disney World last April. Already this year, the girls have helped serve food to the hungry, helped package meals with FFCC, and are working multiple weekends with Top Soccer to play soccer with young athletes with special needs.

Hibiscus Chef Claude Bosi, left, Addison maître d’ Rachel Saunders and Addison Chef William Bradley at the Relais & Chateaux 60th anniversary dinner held Oct. 11 at Addison at The Grand Del Mar.

Relais chefs join for special Addison dinner In 2013, Santa Fe Christian Schools students donated more than 500 pounds of candy to Operation Gratitude.

Santa Fe Christian students collect candy to donate to U.S. troops Santa Fe Christian Schools students are celebrating Halloween by writing personal notes and collecting hundreds of pounds of Halloween candy and Beanie Babies to donate to U.S. troops worldwide. Students at the Solana Beach school will be collecting unopened candy, Beanie Babies and cards in classrooms from Monday, Nov. 3 through Wednesday, Nov. 5. A moving truck will arrive at SFC’s Lower School office at 1 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 6, to collect the large load of donations and deliver them to Operation Gratitude. Care packages are then sent to the troops to enjoy for themselves, as well as to distribute with small stuffed animals to children in the communities they patrol. “It feels good to give back to the community and serve those who serve our country,” said Michelle Chan, an SFC ninth-grader. “It is my small way of saying ‘thank you’ to our troops for their sacrifice.” Last year, SFC students donated more than 500 pounds of candy to Operation Gratitude, a nonprofit that seeks to lift spirits and meet the evolving needs of our active duty and veteran communities. To date, the organization has donated more than 1.1 million care packages to active military men and women. “The crew of the USS Ingraham received their care packages from Operation Gratitude yesterday,” said LTJG K.C. PAO. “It was a wonderful surprise and brought in some muchneeded smiles in the final weeks of a long deployment.” To learn more about Santa Fe Christian Schools, visit www.sfcs.net.

Hats Off to Rancho Days! With the hot air balloons lazily drifting in the summer sky, festive friends gathering at the RSF Club for dinner under the stars, and croquet balls clacking on the front lawn of the

Inn, I gratefully grin and remember how lucky we are to live in Rancho. Yet just when I think life just cannot get any better – here comes Rancho Days! As a certiﬁed “Raving Fan of Rancho Santa Fe” I believe that Rancho Days is yet another splendid showcase of how genuine and special we are as a community. And as an active realtor, I am often amused when my clients, who are just discovering the wonders of this fare hamlet, shake their heads and remark that this feels a bit “like Mayberry.” And they are

right! The easy, breezy life that can be found here still remains a testament to Lilian Rice, W.E. Hodges and the visionaries of the Santa Fe Land Improvement Company of the early 1920s who saw this raw land and imagined a rural community that harkened of a “garden retreat.” So my hat (albeit that’s my golf cap) is off to Rancho Days and all the volunteers, clubs, philanthropies and entities who have worked selﬂessly to make this joyous event spring to life once again! From the ﬁesta to the hayride

to the neighborhood and beyond, this glorious community will be abuzz with civic-oriented celebrations of the “happiest place on Earth”! See you there! And if the picturesque Rancho Days with its warm, kind people lure you in like they have to so many before, and you want a little piece of paradise for you and your family, please give me a call at 858-759-6567 or visit http://www.janetlawlesschrist.com.

CROSSWORD

Breast cancer patients have new treatment options BY MARY K. WILDE, M.D., SCRIPPS HEALTH From food labels and clothing to NFL uniforms, the symbolic pink of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is everywhere — and with good reason. Except for some forms of skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, regardless of race or ethnicity. In the U.S., about 1 in 8 women (about 12 percent) will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime. The earlier breast cancer is detected, the greater the chances for successful treatment, especially as technological advances improve treatment. Many patients who have breast cancer are treated with breast conservation therapy, which is commonly referred to as lumpectomy and radiation. After lumpectomy surgery, which removes the tumor, patients then have radiation therapy to sterilize the surrounding tissue and decrease the risk of the cancer returning. Radiation therapy is usually delivered by external beam, which focuses radiation on the breast from a machine outside the body. Conventional external beam therapy, also known as whole breast irradiation, is performed using a linear accelerator in a radiation facility. Treatments are given for a specific number of weeks, depending on each patient’s condition. This type of radiation has been done for decades and has long-term data that demonstrate its effectiveness. In recent years, technological advances have opened new doors for women with breast cancer who need radiation therapy. Intraoperative electron radiation therapy (IOERT) is an option that is increasingly available in the US, though it has been available in Europe for decades. IOERT uses a mobile linear accelerator to deliver electron beam radiation treatment in about two minutes, right in the operating room, immediately after the lumpectomy. For select patients, this is the only radiation treatment they will require, allowing them to complete their treatment to the breast on the day of surgery. In others, it will serve as the “boost,” shortening the post-operative course of radiation treatment by 15 percent to 50 percent, eliminating weeks of radiation treatments. This treatment has been available in Europe because the linear accelerators have been built into the operating rooms. Howev-

er, over the past several years, a mobile version of the linear accelerator has become available. Known as the Mobetron, it can be rolled into a standard operating room to deliver intraoperative electron radiation therapy at the time of the lumpectomy. This innovation has allowed this treatment option to become a reality for women in America. A community-led fundraising campaign raised the $1.4 million needed for Scripps to bring the first Mobetron unit to the San Diego area. Funded by philanthropic support from the San Diego community, the Scripps Mobetron is housed at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla and is available to all appropriate Scripps patients countywide. As with any new treatment, Scripps will closely follow and monitor IOERT patients to contribute to the data regarding treatment outcomes, and to ensure that the treatment achieves the expected effects. The recently opened Scripps Proton Therapy Center gives breast cancer patients yet a third option for radiation therapy. Proton therapy is a newer technique than the standard whole breast irradiation, but has good data supporting its effectiveness. Delivered in a beam the width of a pencil lead, proton beam therapy can accurately target the required treatment areas. Though the majority of patients can be treated equally well with traditional whole breast irradiation and proton beam therapy, there may be some patients who will benefit from proton beam therapy. The best option for an individual patient requiring radiation therapy for breast cancer is dependent on her specific condition. Tailoring the treatment to the individual, known as individualized medicine, is very important to the patient’s long-term success. It is up to the patient and her breast cancer physician team to determine the type of treatment for her. Fortunately, Scripps patients now have access to all three radiation treatments. Scripps is committed to offering patients the most advanced technology and the highest levels of care. Ultimately, the best option should be a joint decision between patient and physician. Mary K. Wilde, M.D., is medical director for the Scripps Polster Breast Care Center at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. “To Your Health” is brought to you by the physicians and staff of Scripps.

‘Kachina Dolls and Dances’ to be topic at RSF Historical Society lecture Oct. 25 Native American expert Dr. James Kemp will discuss “Kachina Dolls and Dances” from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 25, at the Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society. Katsina figures, also known as kachina dolls (in photo at right), were carved typically from cottonwood root by the Hopi people to instruct young girls and new brides about the katsinas, the immortal beings that bring rain, control the forces of nature, and act as messengers between humans and the spirit world. Hopi people live primarily on three mesas in northeastern Arizona, some 70 miles from Flagstaff. Most kachina figures originated in the late 19th century and changed in style over time. Kemp, a resident of Julian and a retired clinical professor at UC San Diego in the Department of Pediatrics, became fascinated with Native American culture after moving to the Southwest from the East Coast. “I found a wealth of cultures only a day or two drive from San Diego,” he said. Kemp will bring some of the kachina dolls in his collection as well as some pottery. Advance registration is required and seating is limited. Tickets are $15 for members ard $20 for non-members. To register, call Sharon Alix, historical society administrator, Tuesday through Thursday at 858756-9291. La Flecha House, home of the Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society, is at 6036 La Flecha, Rancho Santa Fe, and is a historical landmark.

De Anza Daughters learn about 2015 Balboa Park Centennial In keeping with annual tradition, San Diego Chapter Regent Kathleen Winchester L-R: De Anza Regent Marti Meiners, San Diego Chapter donned a witch’s hat, as did Regent Kathleen Winchester, 1st Vice Regent Jeanne De Anza Daughters of the Bednorz American Revolution, to address the chapter on the upcoming 2015 Centennial Celebration of Balboa Park at their Oct. 4 meeting at the Lomas Santa Fe Country Club. Winchester described her chapter’s involvement in the 100th anniversary celebration and the original Panama-California Exposition, which brought international attention to San Diego in 1915. The San Diego Chapter, the first in San Diego County, started with 33 women who met in a Hillcrest home in 1910. “The original Exposition’s Board of Directors were reluctant to allow women to be involved,” Winchester said, “but they were determined women (during the Suffragette era) and advised the board that this fact would be published in every paper in the United States.” With this, the San Diego Daughters had a major presence at the 1915 Exposition. They converted their Exposition space into an American Colonial Tea Room with rugs, samplers on the wall and china ordered from Austria, serving tea and cakes every day for the year to visitors from around America and the world. For the 2015 Celebration, plans are under way for DAR special events, including placement a DAR Historical Marker at Balboa Park and re-creation of the 1915 Exposition DAR cookbook. The Red, White, and Blue Society of the Children of the American Revolution educated their elders on the Revolutionary art of American painter John Trumbull. President Brittany Pain, past president Zachary Shiel, and 5-year-old Ian Noon presented a skit about Trumbull, who served under George Washington and whose well-known paintings decorate the rotunda of the Capitol building. Channa Parker Barra and Mari-Ann Alford were inducted as new members by Registrar Kathleen Loftman and Chaplin Martha Gresham. Barra’s ancestor was Eleazer Mather, Sr. from New London, Conn., appointed to determine qualifications for surgeons for the Continental Army and Navy. Alford’s ancestor, Col. Robert Lewis, served in the North Carolina Provincial Congress and in the Granville County Militia in 1778. The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution is a volunteer women’s service organization that honors and preserves the legacy of patriot ancestors. Any woman 18 years or older who can prove lineal descent from a patriot of the American Revolution is eligible for membership. De Anza’s active lineage committee helps prospective members with their applications. For information, contact Marti Meiners at mcmeiners@icloud.com or visit www.deanzadar.org.

adaptive device to get his sons outdoors, Jim made it himself at the tool bench in his garage. But almost every time the couple tried to enter bike and foot races with the boys, organizers turned them away. “People kept telling us we couldn’t do things. It was always a fight,” said Jim, who runs an Internet hosting company. That changed in 2002, when the family attended their first Challenged Athletes Foundation triathlon and 4-year-old Shane was able to complete a short run for athletes with disabilities. “Nobody said, ‘No, you can’t do that.’ It was the first place where they said, ‘Yes, we will help you figure out how to make this work,’” Lisa said. “It was refreshing to meet people with the same mindset.” Encouraged, Jim bought jogging strollers, tandem bikes and tow trailers, and the family was soon off and running. The couple created a Facebook page, “Team Pathman,” to chronicle the

atre, La Jolla Playhouse and the Playwrights Project. As she settles into her new role, she plans to pursue her outside theater involvements, she said. Visual arts teacher Carol Limbach joined French artists during a summer trip to Provence and Brittany, creating plein-air artworks along the way. That experience is being brought back to her students. “I am going to be using some of the historical information, as well as some of the art techniques, in a collaboration between myself, my sculpture students and French students. We’ll then create art work for permanent display at CCA,” said Limbach.

Envision coordinator and vocal music coordinator Anne Whatoff performs with the St. Paul’s Episcopal Cathedral Choir, Bach Collegium San Diego, and the New South Coast Chamber Choir. “To be involved in our outside pursuits helps keep us fresh in our art and constantly learning new things,” said Whattoff. Students benefit from this renewal as these ideas are then shared with them. “And while our teachers are out in the community, they are also outreaching to other artists,” Whattoff said. “In this way, they can be exposed to professionals who could potentially join CAA as visiting artists.”

hundreds of sporting pursuits they’ve accomplished since then with the boys, who are now sophomores at Torrey Pines High. Over the years, Jim and Riley have completed eight marathons together as well as more than 50 local 5K, 10K and other races. At their home, Riley proudly showed a visitor dozens of finisher medals he’d collected from various races, as well as a sign over his bed with his favorite words — “swim. bike. run.” — the three components of a triathlon. Meanwhile, in the living room, Shane excitedly peppered the foundation’s Novotny with dozens of questions about Sunday’s race. Virtually every year, the family has returned to the Triathlon Challenge, pushing themselves a little harder each time. Last year, the twins did the full 10-mile run (pushed in jogging strollers by Jim and his friend, Joe Virgilio), 9 miles of the 44-mile bike ride (on tandem bikes with Jim and Lisa), and half of the 1-mile swim (pulled on bodyboards by Jim and Virgilio). This year’s goal was to

complete the full course, with help from Virgilio and volunteers from Team Hoyt San Diego and the November Project. The next big family goal is to complete the Boston Marathon after the boys turn 18. These days, Shane is more interested in video games than outdoor sports, but Riley loves competing. At every Torrey Pines track meet, he takes part in a 100-meter dash to the enthusiastic cheers of the team, cheerleaders and fans in the stands. Jim and Riley also spend every weekend running at least one race together with the jogging stroller. With a bit of creative thinking, Jim says it’s exactly the life he once envisioned. “When I was growing up, my bike was my freedom and it opened up my world. That’s what I always saw for my family,” he said. “Those first few years I was shell-shocked and gave up on my dream of riding bikes together, but now we’re living the dream.”
